Feels Like Falling

Elizabeth is so sick of always having to be the reliable one - for her dad, for her sister, for her best friend, for the guy at work who keeps making her completely redo the weekly schedule. Just once, she'd love to be able to lean on someone else.

Mike knows he's a screwup. First he lost his girlfriend, and now he's annoyed his coworker after years of flaking out. But he's vowed to get better. And he is. He just has to make Elizabeth see it. For her, sure, he'll do the night shift. Sure, he'll make a space in the office for her special-needs sister. Sure, he'll help her with a massive renovation project.

Bit by bit, day by day, Elizabeth begins to see that maybe there's more to Mike than she thought possible. But is this bound to be another disappointment, or someone who's in it for the long haul?
