    Summary

    When you’re sick with complex medical issues, the challenge isn’t knowing when it’s going to fall apart: that part is inevitable. The challenge is knowing how long it’ll take to be put back together, held in place gently as you weather through the storm. Grace might not be willing to openly share when she falls apart from a complex migraine, but Jay’s pretty good at making sure she’s held through the worst of it. Set a few weeks before “Carry me through this”.

    Summary

    “Connie, I hate to ask you this… especially considering everything that’s happened, but you’re the closest to her and I can’t get a flight until tomorrow morning. Could you go see her?”

    “No, it’s no problem, Laurel,” he said softly, already pulling on clothes. “I’ll be right over.”

    Conrad never goes to Paris. Belly ends up at UC Berkeley for a master’s in architecture design. When she comes down with a stomach bug something fierce, Conrad, being in Palo Alto, is the one who gets to her the fastest.
