    Summary

    Jack Abbot is not an overly-neighborly person. He has secret nicknames in his head for most of the people on his floor and actively avoids any and all types of neighbor politics. However, he can’t deny his growing fondness for the single mom and toddler in apartment seventeen. (Nor his burning hatred for your baby daddy).

    Summary

    The kids usually filter in slowly. First a trickle, then a flood. Samira will smile and greet and ensure that she’s saying each and every name, ensuring they all see her seeing them. This part of the routine, she loves. 10 year old’s were just perfect: excited and curious and so very sweet and well-meaning. They weren’t easy, not by a long shot, but they were worth the effort. (Especially for Samira, who had her routine and then got to say goodbye and return to a quiet apartment).

    or: elementary school teacher Samira x single dad Jack!

    Summary

    “I’m sorry,” Robby says slowly, stiffly, “I think I must have misheard you, because I’m pretty sure I just heard you tell me that my mother, whom I haven’t seen in almost fifty years, came to my place of work today, the one time this week that I wasn’t there.”

    Summary

    Jack stares at him. “I feel like you’ve skipped a few lines of script, brother. Why are you booking a hotel?”

    “You said your friend is coming over,” Robby reminds him. “Look – I got it. Message received. I don’t mind crashing somewhere else for a few nights if it spares you telling all your army buddies that you’re dating a dude.”

    Or: When Jack invites an old veteran friend to stay with them, it turns out Robby's vague worries about homophobia are only the tip of the iceberg.
