Summary
Sydney watches as he takes her, those big hands of his cradling her so carefully. His face softens, shoulders relaxing, his usual lines of tension fading into his skin. He looks down at his niece, who babbles up at him happily, and Sydney holds herself back from recoiling.
How gentle he looks—how good.
She stops herself from imagining and her hands clench.

Summary
Eventually they get up. They shower together, water hot and steamy against their skin. Sydney washes his hair, massaging his scalp while he leans into her touch. He borrows a white t-shirt from her and leaves his one from last night in her hamper as they get dressed. They make breakfast together. Carmy fries up some eggs while Sydney makes them coffee.
It’s quiet, domestic even.
Almost normal, if normal is what they’re aiming for.
Sydney doesn’t know what they’re aiming for.

Summary
Was talking always this exhausting? She honestly hasn’t been on enough dates in recent years to compare. Unbidden, her mind drifts to the little bench that forms a right angle out the back entrance of The Bear, and the not-cigarette breaks she takes there. She’s never tired after those: Carmy knows she can be grumpy and awkward and silent during a long day of work, and he likes talking to her anyway.

Sydney's going on dates. Carmy is not jealous. They're both nailing this "being normal" thing.

Summary
"She craved something decadent- a love so filling and fattening. Something that would leave the skin between her fingers sweet and tacky. A love much like an overly ripe fruit- its stringy honeyed flesh embedding itself beneath her molars"

Summary
He doesn’t think he’ll ever get tired of looking at her. This is something he doesn’t tell anyone, doesn’t write down, used to try not to think about, except that he couldn’t help but think about it, and then he gave up on trying.
