Can't Hardly Wait: A Check Please! Daily Challenge (May-June 2016)
What happened in Jack and Eric's lives and relationship between Jack's graduation day (May 18, 2015) and the 4th of July weekend when Jack visited Eric in Madison, Georgia? This challenge invites authors to post a short work, chapter, or sketch each day chronicling the passage of time "live".
This is a Check Please! daily challenge, open to all writers and artists who enjoy the accountability /structure of creating something daily and putting it out into the world without a lot of beta feedback or editing. There is no formal length requirement -- you could write a Tweet per day (140 characters) or a drabble (100 words) or something longer-ish. The goal is something you can create and post in the time between dinner and bed each day, or over breakfast, or during your lunch break.
This is a Jack/Eric challenge but feel free to mix up POV characters and include snippets from the perspective of other characters in the Check Please! world if you wish -- texts from Shitty? Snarky commentary by Lardo? An email from Alicia to Suzanne? Twitter harassment from Ransom and Holster? A conversation between Jack and Georgia from her point of view? Go for it. All of it. And post it here so we can read it.
(Open, Unmoderated)

Summary
The phone, with its string of texts between him and Eric, is the only tangible evidence he has that kissing Bitty -- that Bitty kissing him back -- isn’t some sort of lucid dream brought on by the stress of graduation. So he’s been gripping it like a lifeline.

Summary
For the Can't Hardly Wait challenge, I present to you: my on-the-fly-written account of Bitty and Jack's Skype conversations between May and July. It starts modestly and gets deeper & more heated as it goes on.
Note: This was written as part of a challenge where I wrote and posted a chapter "live" nearly every day, so it will read much differently to you than a planned-out, carefully edited fic. I hope you will enjoy it nonetheless.
ETA 4/17/20: I would like to apologize for the gross inaccuracies regarding a hockey player's life, diet, and schedule. When I wrote this, I had no idea about this sort of thing.
