    "I'm not going to tell him. It's a horrible idea."
    "OL."
    "How would that conversation even work? How would I phrase it? What are the right words?"
    "Actually you should probably"
    "Do I tell him that I miss him? That I'm in love with him? That I think about him all the time? That I regret ever pushing him away?

    Summary

    Olive can't seem to escape feelings brought on by SBD. Adam just wants to help her forget.

    “I keep hearing him,” she hissed, her face twisting against the memory. “All day...I keep hearing his voice, reliving the words he said to me. I just - - “

    She started to tremble. Adam’s cheek was flush with her own as he continued to hold her steady even despite her ongoing tremors.

    “I want to forget,” she heard herself say, like a voice outside of her body.

    Finally, Adam released her. When she peeked through her lashes, Olive saw his own eyes were full, dark, mysterious. She licked her lips and took a deep breath.

    “Make me forget.”

    Summary

    “May I?” he whispered.

    “You…” could he? She wasn’t sure. On paper, this seemed like a terrible idea. One did not sit on the lap of a stranger on a subway train. But she was so cold. And he had a blanket. And his arms alone were…large enough to add warmth of their own, she thought. She was too cold for her body to spare the blood needed for her to blush, and for a fleeting moment she was thankful for the cold.

    She nodded, at last. He closed the gap between his hands and her waist and pulled her into him, seating her on his lap and tucking her into his right arm while he adjusted the blanket over them both. He let his left arm fall to his side and she perched herself on him with as much dignity as she could retain. Her back was straight and she stared straight ahead.

    “Thank you,” she said. It seemed like the right thing to say, given the circumstances.
