Be Mine, Valentine by aparticularbandit

Summary
The first time Claire Valentine laid eyes on Eve Mackie, she knew she was in love.
Of course, the first time Claire saw Eve, she was all of six years old, a tiny little scrap of a thing in a body that didn’t feel quite so uncomfortable yet, in skin that didn’t feel quite so stretched thin. She wasn’t even Claire yet; sometimes she took her mother’s name out and tried it on the same way that you or I might pull out fine china for special occasions (or our most favorite hoodie on rainy days when we just want to crawl back into bed and cover our head), but it never fit just right.
Over the years, Claire expected that Eve forgot about her. Forgot that they’d almost been married, forgot that she’d promised to be Mrs. Valentine. She tried to forget about her, too, just like she tried to be anyone other than Claire, to fit into the skin that her father sketched out for her. But the more she tried, the thinner it grew, until she felt like she was splitting.
Then her parents died, and everything changed.

Misunderstanding by aparticularbandit
Fandoms: Mrs. Fletcher (TV), Glass Onion (2022), Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery

Summary
Eve meets her husband’s eyes – he is so much taller than her that it is impossible to feel like she is taking the high ground here – and she asks, as soon as they return to their living room, as soon as their daughter is safely gone to a friend’s house, “What’s her name?”
The truth is? She asks because she wants Christopher to deny it, to suggest that there’s something else wrong they need to talk about, because certainly – certainly – it isn’t that. He wouldn’t leave her. He wouldn’t be distracted with someone else when he has never—
Christopher drops his gaze, refuses to meet her eyes. He moves to their couch, sits on the edge of one cushion, and leans forward, arms on his knees, hunched with the weight of the singular word he says before he can even say it: “Claire.”

Summary
“No,” Eve says, interrupting them, staring down at her hands again. “I don’t…I don’t want Aislin to know.” She presses her lips together in a thin line, trying to ignore the lie as she says it. “She’s your daughter. I just…got to hold her for a little while.” Her fingers lay still in her lap, and she dares to glance up from them to gauge the others’ reactions. Agatha just stares at her, and Cian looks like they would be about to say something, if not for Claire's appearance.
