One Day - Heartland AU (Part 37)

Parts: 36 ... Trigger Warnings: minor descriptions of rape

“But you do know, don’t you? You heard his voice.” 

“Pretty little thing you have here, Tim.”  “See you tomorrow, sweetheart.”

Amy stared out into the yard while her vision blurred with tears. 

“Tell Daddy we’re even.”

Will one day he updated. You are a very talented writer

Yes. I have little by little been working on more chapters. Time frame for their release is still up in the air, I'm afraid.

Hi. Hope your well. Just wondered if there will be a chapter for One Day this weekend. It is such a great story. Thanks for you time. Take care.

Hello! I'm responding to this several days later so by now you'll have gotten your answer, but I will say that move in day for my roomie is this weekend. (So no new chapter yet, I'm afraid.) My house is just about back in order (minus the electricity issue but c'est la vie), so I hope May will offer me some breathing room and the chance to reconnect with my writing projects, One Day included, before I have to tackle the next episode of This Old House.

(For reference my house was built in 1905 and was probably last updated in the '50s. Historically cool, functionally problematic. See: electrical failure.)

tl;dr: No new chapters are ready yet. I will post an update when you can officially expect more if life doesn't run me over first.

Next chapter please?

Release date for the next chapter is currently TBD. I started writing it then things went a bit off the rails IRL. I have a friend moving in at the end of the month and the process of making space/moving rooms (including my library/writing space) has turned out to be more of a hassle than I anticipated, complete with an electrical failure in half of what is to become my new bedroom (FML). Just bear with me for a little while until I can regain control of life.

36 auto posted here on Tumblr a couple of hours ago. I just had the opportunity to get on the computer to share it on Fanfiction.net but it usually takes about 30 mins to update over there.

One Day - Heartland AU (Part 36)

Parts: 35 ...37 Trigger Warnings: discussions of rape and abortion

A thump jolted Amy awake. She opened her eyes expecting it to be morning, but the window was dark. The light she initially thought to be the sun was her bedside lamp. It took a second for her to remember she turned it on to read more of “What to Expect…” and must have fallen asleep. Now awake, her bladder was screaming for release so she twisted out of bed to find her book on the floor. Picking it up she straightened the pages and set it back on the nightstand. 

The house was dark and still when she crept out of her room to the bathroom. On her way back down the hall, Amy paused when she remembered the dvd she’d left in the barn. Now would be the perfect time to sneak out to get it.

One Day - Heartland AU (Part 35)

Parts: 34 ... 36

Contrary to what Ty told her, the front door was not, in fact, locked when Lisa tried to open it. Giving it a  push, she looked back at Ty in the yard who just lifted his hands in defeat. Every other time Amy ran off to hide in the house, she bolted the doors behind her. “Amy?” Lisa called as she made her way through the house in search of the young woman. There weren’t many places for her to go, so when Lisa didn’t see her in the kitchen or living room she went to her bedroom. The door was closed which she took as a good indication that Amy was inside.

Parts: 33, ... 35

People watching was a hell of a pastime. You could learn so much about an individual as well as overall human nature by just observing behaviors and mannerisms of fellow man. Amy spent a great deal of the evening doing just that from her place at the wooden picnic table. She chatted with Soraya for a majority of the time who introduced her to a few of her own friends that showed up, but aside from Ty and Jack, she knew no one well enough to engage in deep conversation. She learned Jack and Lisa were a true opposites attract love story based simply on the clash of rustic cowboys and posh equestrians mingling in the yard. It wasn’t a huge crowd, but enough to make it easy for her to become invisible.

By 11 o’clock Amy finished cleaning and straightening the interior of the house then hopped in the shower before Soraya arrived with her mom’s chili along with a few pies and bouquets of fresh cut flowers for the centerpieces. The guys kept their distance from the house after Amy practically threw Ty out so she could clean in peace. But they had their hands full anyway with the inmates who were taking turns in the round pen. The few times Amy peeked outside she caught glimpses of someone in the dirt, or diving for the safety of the fence. Her attention didn’t linger long, though, not wanting to give any of them a chance to notice her watching and take it as an invitation to engage.

Amy’s good mood lasted until she crawled into bed. Her head hit the pillow, crunching down  on the envelope she’d hidden beneath it. Reaching back she pulled it out, feeling the DVD slide out and onto the floor with a thunk. Sighing, she twisted to lean over the bed and grab it, careful not to drop the disk when she saw the case came apart from impact. Flicking the lamp on, she sat up and placed everything in her lap to fix. Snapping the case back together, Amy opened it to replace the disk when she hesitated. Her thumb ran along the smooth curved edge. Biting her lip, a curiosity buried deep inside surfaced. One that she had been bound and determined to fend off until she had no choice but to face it. Maybe it was the events of the last few days lowering her guard. Or she was finally in a place to start healing and taking back control of her life. Whatever it was, it sent her out of bed and sneaking through the house to the front door with the DVD in hand.

Could you write a sequel to the story the next step mabie like 5 years later and they want another child but struggle to get pregnant again. Also an update on one day would be good

I'll be honest, I probably won't write more in the world of TNS. I mean, never say never. But I'm more likely to write a completely separate and new story with an infertility plot line since TNS has been completed and long out of my head for several years now. As of right now, though, my primary focus is on One Day, and I don't have plans to start anything new at the moment.

So far I have been releasing One Day chapters every other Saturday. I am going to try to keep that as consistent as possible for as long as I can.

As it turned out, Amy was glad she volunteered for the task of preparing for Lisa’s early birthday bash. It provided the distraction she sought while also familiarizing her with the town of Hudson, and the people who called it home. Each morning Jack drove her to Maggie’s before the inmates arrived then picked her up after they’d gone, effectively avoiding any more unpleasant encounters.

The week wasn’t without its uncomfortable moments, though, when the friendliness of the townspeople resulted in Amy being pulled into hugs or made to shake hands. No matter how innocent their intentions, Amy didn’t think she’d ever be completely okay with strangers getting so close. Soraya became a much appreciated buffer once she realized Amy’s discomfort with being touched.
