Summary
Carla knows, then, with a certainty so sudden it's almost shocking, that this, this thing, didn't start last month. It didn't randomly spark during the early-October evening when they were loose-lipped, half-tipsy with wine, when the blonde had settled cosily on her shoulder like she belonged there.
No, it's been smouldering away in the background, building and building, for a long, long time.
It's been six months in the making.
Or: "Don't get dressed" and everything else.

Summary
And she smiles.
It’s smug, patronising and self-satisfied and ugly.
(And, this time, it isn’t the traffic she should be worried about. It’s Carla fucking Connor.)

Summary
Lisa's tears have drenched her shirt where the blonde had hid her face, the cold breeze now cooling the wet patch against the brunette's skin, a memento of the woman she's left behind, hurt and alone.
She speeds her pace up, sticks her hands in her pockets and swallows back a sob.
The back of her mind comes alive with the blurred image of bright green eyes fixated in hers, full of hope and trust and affection.
She knows those eyes have looked at Becky the same way, knows they would again, weren't she in the way.
By the time she notices, tears are streaming freely down her cheeks and she finds herself yearning for Lisa's neck to hide into.
or
the aftermath of Halloween's episode laced with other times Carla and Lisa found themselves crying on each other's shoulders.

Summary
Bad dreams force Carla to Number 6 to really make sure Lisa and Betsy are alive and well after the accident. It becomes something of a habit.
