Summary
In a small town in Maine, Remus Lupin has his routine down. He grabs coffee with his best friend Lily every morning at nine, and then works at a diner in the afternoons until closing, though his boss has now informed him that she has hired someone new, James Potter, who will have the same shifts. One morning, Remus finds himself driving his little sister to soccer camp very late and in a very questionable outfit. When he gets there, the camp counsellor and soccer coach, Sirius Black, stands at the door with a clipboard, crossing off the names of the kids as they arrive.
Sirius, notoriously known for his magnetic personality and the dangerous glint in his eye, goes after what he wants, and when they start "something" -- whatever it is -- with Remus, they both find themselves unable to get enough, even if it was supposed to be casual. Is anything really ever casual, though?
Lots of yapping, lots of joking, lots of nights at the diner eating ice cream and singing, and lots and lots of love.

Summary
Katsuki Bakugo, or Ground Zero to the racing world, gets stranded in a small town in Arizona after a reckless driver runs into him. With his agent avoiding his calls and no way to pay for his car repairs, he's forced to pick up a job at the diner. Work is slow, and the days drag by even slower. He spends his time driving on dirt roads outside city limits in borrowed cars and picking fights with energetic blonds. Late night drives, spilled drinks, and penny arcades introduce him to a slower way of life, making him question the merits of his fast-paced career.
As the days drag on, Katsuki starts to worry about what he'll find when he returns home. Has his coach found someone new to replace him? Will he be forgotten after a few months of radio silence? Why isn't his agent returning his calls?
If only the redheaded mechanic would stop looking at him like he had something to offer, he could focus on getting the hell out of this strange town.
Or: A cars AU in which Katsuki is a racecar driver and Kirishima is a mechanic.

Summary
That was when she turned the corner and her eyes landed on a diner. Its ‘Open 24 hours’ sign was still glowing softly against the dark sky.
Convenient, she thought, arching an eyebrow. A truly good cup of coffee might help her write, too.

Summary
Mike. It’s always about Mike, isn’t it?
“You okay?” He whispers.
Will just nods, sucking in a breath. “Yeah. Can we– I’m tired. I just want to go back to the motel.”
“Yeah, of course."
As the night goes on, it seems that the cold only becomes more harsh, biting at any and all exposed skin.
Will hates the cold.
It always settles deep under his skin, into his bones until he’s numb. Ten years ago or so, he wouldn’t have hesitated to jump into the first snow pile he saw with Mike, laughing as they threw snowballs and stuffed each other’s jackets with snow, getting sick and thinking it’s so worth it.
Now– it just reminds him of everything that happened to him in the upside-down.

Summary
AU. Completed. Emma Swan didn't do mornings. She didn't do corporate types stepping into her diner like it belonged to them. The bell door chimed, and she looked up just in time to see the crazy woman she had an encounter earlier at the parking lot stride inside. Blazer sharp enough to cut glass, heels tapping like a countdown. Emma's stomach sank. Great. Authority in motion.
"I'm your new manager."
Emma snorted. "Manager, huh? You're gonna make me laugh if you think you can tell me what to do at two in the morning."
Regina's mouth twitched into the tiniest smirk, barely there. "We'll see, Em-ma."

Summary
These were the people who were going to be rooting for him this season. The people he was meant to represent and live amongst.
Ilya didn’t feel like he fit in at all.
What if he never fit in to Boston?
A few anxious minutes later, Ilya was served his food. A tuna melt, it turned out, was some kind of toasted sandwich with canned tuna mixed up with…he couldn’t exactly tell what, but it smelled like some onions were in there. There was definitely some melted yellow cheese on top. What was with Americans and their love for yellow cheese? He supposed there was only one way to find out. Ilya took a big bite and-
“Oh my god!”

Summary
Set early in Shane and Ilya's careers. The first time they fuck.
‘And now?’ Shane asked, his own voice dangerously low, ‘You stressed, Rozanov?’
Ilya’s eyes flickered down to Shane’s mouth, then back up. ‘Is high-pressure game. Many scouts, I hear. For both teams.’
‘So I’ve heard.’ And there it was, the unspoken elephant in the booth: their futures.
‘Maybe,’ Ilya said, so quietly Shane had to read the word on his lips as much as hear it, ‘efficiency is good strategy.’
The proposition hung in the air. Shane thought of Ilya on the ice tomorrow, his opponent, his obstacle, the thing standing in the way between him and success. He thought of the Ilya in Toronto, the Ilya who sucked his dick but wouldn’t kiss him.

Summary
a remake of my Spider story, "you don't wanna know me,"
the sullts have just moved, the house across from them isn't something they have noticed, but the boy who lives there is. they find out what he's really going through when the kid serves them at a family diner.
°•○•°
The boy seemed around Neteyams age, tall and lean and all tan skin. the kids uniform was a faded red, missing a button by the collar and creased by the bottom. Jake somehow managed to notice all of this before the kids hair, but once he saw it it was impossible not to focus on.
Blond and curly, short with a slight fringe and absolutely wild. it was golden compared to anything in the restaurant, clearly sun bleached and a well kept hassle, the kind of hair that kiri prays for.
enjoy Xx

Summary
When Javier Peña’s motorcycle dies in your tiny desert town, he ends up in your autoshop garage—right where you really shouldn’t be looking at him the way you do.
He’s older, hot, rough—built to ruin your self control—and absolutely the kind of man your sheriff father would kill you for touching.
He’s stuck for the summer, you’re the only mechanic around,
and the heat makes it way too easy to blur every line you shouldn’t cross.
