(series) Thaw - Summering II
Title: Summering II
Pairing: Brett Hull
Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction, it is untrue
Series: Thaw
The kitchen still smells like pancakes. And her fingers smell like maple syrup. And Brett has traced "love you" in the flour on the bench. And she adores Brett's kids, and there is no way that she would ever begrudge him spending time with them, it is not that at all.
It isn't the leaving home to come to Phoenix. It isn't the hot weather and dry winds that scrap sand across her face every time she goes outside.
Being with Brett is like filling up on junk food. Like Chinese food, like french fries. No matter how much you consume you are both hungry and sick, and too full to ever want to eat again. Until half an hour later when you are ravenous. And how close it is to starving, eating your fill off someone who isn't really there.
