Summary
“Isn’t it strange? You look at me, I look at you, with nothing to say."
Rhaenyra thinks it strange how she can go on days pondering every little shade Alicent's eyes can take, yet forgets when she last looked into them.
Alicent still reads, still tries lemon cakes from time to time, and sometimes enjoys the breeze beneath the big weeping willow too, but she thinks it strange how every little one of those brings a little tear instead of a smile.
This is just the journey of two strangers who become strangers again who once kissed.

Rhaenyra breathed out, red stained on her glowing forearm and hand.
"Shall I continue to guide you to my inevitable death? Or will you ever act on your deafened desires?"

Summary
“Fair play,” Rhaenyra replies, “But you can’t just spend all summer wasting away here, your only friend to speak of being the 30 year old lesbian who cleans your pool.”
“That seems like something you made up just now,” Aegon responds lightly, “Rather than an actual rule.”
or,
After her mugshot makes it into the tabloids, Rhaenyra strikes a deal to keep her inheritance that involves a summer spent working at her cousin's landscaping company. This brings her to the house of delinquent teenager Aegon Hightower and his lonely, high-strung mother.
