    Summary

    “You are a hurricane," Andy said, offering a small, lopsided smile. "You can't expect a hurricane to apologise for the weather. You just need someone who actually likes the rain."

    When Miranda Priestly’s fourth marriage begins to fracture, Andy appoints herself as a secret, late-night guardian to a woman who would rather walk through Central Park naked than admit she needs saving. She tells herself it's just research for her book. She tells herself she's just protecting the brand.

    Summary

    “Do you—” Andy started when breaking the silence became less uncomfortable than letting it grow further. “I mean. The necklace. Is it okay?”

    Miranda hummed, dragging her eyes from the necklace to rest on Andy’s face instead. “It’s good,” she said, voice muffled. “Looks good.”

    Andy’s mouth was dry. Her lips were dry, too; she licked them, but that did nothing to help. “That’s good,” she heard herself say. “That it’s good, I mean. It’s—it’s nice. I like it.”

    Or: Miranda tries to ask Andy out, in her own way. It's a shame Andy cannot fathom Miranda being interested in her.

    Definitely.

    Summary

    “This is the third time this week I’ve watched you go pale,” she said coldly.
    Her eyes moved over Andy.
    Down - slowly - then back up.
    Andy searched her expression, still impossible to read.
    “I’m just tired.”

    A story of two people who, without realizing it, begin to matter to each other in ways neither of them intended.

    Someone who builds walls.
    And someone who stays anyway.

    Summary

    “Do you, though?” Andrea asked quietly.

    Miranda fought the overwhelming urge to topple over and throw up. She blinked once and, without taking her eyes off Andrea, asked, “What?”

    Andrea bit down on her lip and sighed softly. “Do you like me?”

    Miranda almost screamed yes. Instead, she closed her eyes and forced herself to breathe in and out slowly.

    “What answer do you want?” she finally replied.

    Andrea frowned slightly.

    When Miranda spoke again, there was something dangerously close to pleading in her voice.

    “Because I don’t want to make you uncomfortable,” she said. “I don’t want to scare you away. I can manage my feelings, but I can’t lose you.”
