Summary
The day before school starts, Sterling actually spends the afternoon trying to craft a casually friendly opening line, something to break the ice, but it’s so hard. Every time she practices saying, “Hey April! How was your summer?” all she can think is, I had my first orgasm while thinking about you. And several more after, if I’m being honest.

Summary
Now, though, now April is turning eighteen. An actual adult. And her dad is officially out of her and her mom’s life, while Sterling is sitting on her bed, staring at April like she just hung the moon.
So maybe this birthday will be better.
Sterling is determined to give April a wonderful birthday. Lots of fluff.

Summary
It’s wonderful to spend the days with Sterling, going on hikes, leading Bible study, eating every meal together, sitting in front of the bonfire. It’s more consistent time than they’ve ever gotten to spend together, and soon they’ll be off at different colleges, so April isn’t about to take that time for granted.
But the days are also completely structured, planned practically to the minute. And just about every one of those minutes involves the needs of children. Anywhere April goes, three to ten eight-year-olds are sure to follow, and the same goes for Sterling. They’ve had basically zero alone time together, and it’s driving them both up a wall.
