The Boys 'Round Here: December 2013
http://theboysroundhere.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 30, 2013. Longest chapter of the longest story, including lots of overlap with Harder Than Stone. We might just make these stories go on forever! 8220;It’s been what, ten hours? 8221; Meghan lay helplessly pinned beneath half of John’s upper body. He had twisted around her in the night, as always, and ended up with his head buried in the pillow just above her shoulder. Hair fell into his eyes as he lifted his face. 8220;At least fifteen.”. With a groan, John threw back the covers. Out of...

You Started It: January 2012
http://youstartedit19.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 20, 2012. I posted this ages ago but a few people have told me it never popped up on their dashboards. What a bummer! I don't want anyone to miss the big finale! Hope you enjoy (and check the bottom for a bonus). He smiled as he pressed this thumb to the piece of tape, hanging the note on her door. Didn’t even break in. She’s spent the days after Jon left dozing in the same spot he’d left her. A few movies, a few dinners, but she’d kept to herself and her thoughts...Jon slapped his tea...

The Boys 'Round Here: September 2013
http://theboysroundhere.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 26, 2013. 8220;You’re sure? The tone of his own voice made John wince. He hated sounding needy but he needed to see Meghan. It was beyond wanting. The day before, after seeing Meghan at the gym and having lunch with everyone, she hadn’t wanted to make the drive back to Mississagua. John would’ve gladly gone to Whitby except that James was there, like a troll under a bridge, and would question everybody that passed between him and Meghan. John told himself to be cool. John would have g...

The Boys 'Round Here: forty-two
http://theboysroundhere.blogspot.com/2014/03/forty-two.html
Thursday, March 27, 2014. Meghan glanced in the mirror to see John leaning against the doorframe, watching her. He wore just shorts, his hair messier than ever as it got longer. She smiled and he smiled back. 8220;I can’t believe you didn’t tell me,” he said. He thought. This was the kind of girl who could dress up but liked to dress down. The kind of girl a guy wanted to know. Meghan’s last surprise for the weekend was a good one: Monday morning she had an interview with a financial firm in Manhat...

The Boys 'Round Here: November 2013
http://theboysroundhere.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 26, 2013. 8220;I’m coming over,” John said. It was the first he’d heard of Meghan’s accident the night before. He was already dressed and moving toward his car, only the destination needed to change. 8220;It’s okay. Go to the gym. I get a rental loaner with my insurance, I’ll come right to your house as soon as I have it.”. John: Lonely here without you. Meghan hadn’t even been alone. 8220;Are you sure you’re okay? Meghan disconnected before she could hate herself more. James had be...

The Boys 'Round Here: February 2014
http://theboysroundhere.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 26, 2014. 8220;United, right? 8221; Meghan peered at the signs marking each terminal of the airport, mindful of cars parked haphazardly and people unloading into the road. 8220;You might want to look into getting glasses, Meg,” Steven said. It was the first light comment she’d heard from him in days, so she rolled her eyes. 8220;Pffffffffffft. Not sure you should hang up your skates for open mic night, Stammer.”. 8220;Can you believe it? 8221; she asked. 8220;Oh, come on! 8221; she sl...

The Boys 'Round Here: August 2013
http://theboysroundhere.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 29, 2013. Meghan was nervous. Facing James the morning after the night before - what to expect? She got dressed in shorts and a t-shirt, then pulled a long sleeve shirt on like armor despite the heat. From the top of the stairs she could hear James making noise in the kitchen, as if he were calling out his presence. At least he wasn’t hiding. 8220;Hey,” she said quietly. 8220;What was that last night? 8221; she asked. 8221; Her eyes blurred with tears. 8220;I am. Oh God.” J...Meghan lean...

Wednesday, January 29, 2014. Meghan pretended not to notice as John fixed the collar on his golf shirt for the third time. He’d chosen a white top and navy shorts with a Blue Jays hat. Meghan smiled at that too - he was really trying to impress. The traffic light turned green and John put his hands back on the wheel at ten and two. 8220;You ready for this? 8221; she asked. 8220;Should I be worried? 8220;No,” she squeezed his arm, “My dad was the one who suggested I stay with you! 8221; she razzed. 8220;I...
