    Summary

    Carmy had screwed up.

    This wasn't news but it doesn't mean Sydney is willing to put up with his behaviour for much longer. If she chose to stay, he'd need to do better, she made sure he knew that.

    The truth is that they both wanted to be in each other's lives but were they meant to be? What would happen if they were dealt an unexpected hand?

    Would their partnership be able to survive anything and everything? Would their friendship?

    Summary

    Sydney is going to do it.

    She has to.

    This is the only way she’s going to stay sane and save whatever relationship she and Carmen have. She needs to leave before they burn down for good.

    The thick paper stack in her hands feels too solid, a heavy reminder, and this Shapiro guy is smiling at her all excited and oblivious to her inner turmoil.

    She knows Carmen will never forgive her for this, but that’s alright. He’ll get his star soon enough and then he’ll be able to look down at her and smile triumphantly as she struggles to keep her barely-business afloat.

    But she will be satisfied— she knows she will be.

    Summary

    "She passes behind him, brushing the back of her hand against his back. A quiet “Behind.” Her coffee isn’t empty, but it’s long cold now; more than half of it’s gone, she doesn’t feel like she’s wasted whatever moment of clarity that Carmy had this morning. Sydney sweeps by to drop her cup in the trash and pauses.

    Carmen didn’t have a cup when she came in."
    ---

    Or, Carmy and Sydney and being in love with each other, one with more clarity than the other.
    In the wake of just falling apart, and not yet being in a place to say anything. Between overly complicated Coffee orders, and Ginger Tea.

    Summary

    “The only thing we can agree on is that Cavlin is a stupid cat name.” Natalie laughs, because it is funny, and it is. It’s just frustrating. “Carmy pitched Tiramisu this morning. And I’m mad that I like that too.”

    From his place still in bed, with said cat, curled up next to his head. Purring loud enough that Sydney had heard it from the doorway of their bedroom. “You are Carmy’s favorite. That’s gotta mean more than being Tiramisu's favorite.”

    It did, but it still kind of sucked.
    ---

    Or, Sydney wants a cat, Carmy doesn't.
    The Cat likes Carmy more, and Sydney's not jealous at all. She's not even what she's even jealous about.

    Summary

    "Carmy’s head rises, blue catching brown. And she freezes a bit, despite the three years they have together- being caught, is standing in front of him for the first time. Words catching in her throat, awkward. Her hero, right- and, just- sharp blue eyes.

    Sydney was still smug about having been able to fuck him over so much he forgot what UPS was.

    His face suddenly flushes, and shifts. Amis, Tiramisu, lets out a petulant meow, having stretched out even further to press his tiny face against Carmy’s curls. Sydney smiles at him, “You good there?”"

    Summary

    "There’s blood still under his nails. It’s his blood.

    She drags his good hand up to her chest, the blond shifting slightly; her knees ache at the angle- but that’s fine. Sydney stares at it. Digs her nail under his, and drags her finger along. It’s been there for a couple of hours, stuck up under his nails. His bitten half to death, skin picked off-

    When they first started dating, Sydney had been fascinated with his hands; fuck she still was, and maybe she was always fascinated with them- there was more than one time she wanted to bite his cheek simply because she could."

    ---
    Or. Currently the worst week Carmy's had in awhile. And Getting better is sometimes one step forwards and two steps back. And that's okay. It doesn't feel like it is but, it is. Healing isn't linear.
    And Sydney reminds him that it's okay for him to be sick and miserable with her, and to not keep it to himself where she can't help.

    Summary

    "He draws his eyes to were Carmy’s still bent over the counter, but now he’s digging into that aluminum foil- The walk-in door shuts loud over the clattering of everyone moving around, and:

    “Carmen Berzatto if you put that nasty shit back in your mouth, I’m never kissing you again again.” Sydney’s voice cracks over the space- and Richie-

    “Oh fuck.”'
    ---
    Or. Syd Vs Carmy's nasty gum.
    And everyone else is kind of there too. But mostly Richie. Solitary for being the Berzatto's favorite people.

    Summary

    “What do you think?”

    He pushes the dish forward, in front of her until she can’t avoid it anymore and she gapes. In front of her is a dish that looks eerily familiar, a pattern of black and white she has seen in her bathroom mirror every morning, on her head. This dish replicates her scarf— Carmen made a dish out of her scarf. A beautiful glossy reduced sauce with specs of white cream, dripping off the side of the beef. Suddenly, Sydney is finding it extremely hard to breathe.

    She knows Carmen is still looking at her, expecting, or not, something out of her. What does he want her to say? I fucking love you?

    Sydney feels her chest open and spill right onto the marble countertop, the perfect dish ruined by how much she can’t contain herself.
