    Summary

    In the uneasy weeks after school begins, Marcus keeps testing the edges of things—classrooms, rules, patience, home.

    Matthew and Diana try to give him room to settle into this new version of life, but Marcus’s restlessness is less about rebellion than it is about certainty. Some lines, once redrawn, need to be felt before they can be trusted.

    Summary

    Matthew de Clermont didn’t go looking for romance. He went to Dr. Foster’s office with his two sons in tow. Diana Bishop wasn’t looking either. She was there for Jack, fourteen, adopted out of foster care and still learning how to manage his anger.

    What starts as a few minutes of conversation turns into coffee between classes. Coffee becomes a quick glass of wine, then eventually dinner.

    As their relationship shifts from stolen hours to something that might last, the kids notice. Matthew and Diana can handle grant deadlines, grading, therapy appointments, and the daily logistics of keeping their households steady, but building a life together asks a harder question: can you let someone in without making promises your children can’t afford for you to break?

    A human AU slow burn about single parenthood and the brave, ordinary work of letting someone in when you have every reason to be careful.
