    Summary

    “You know Ellie’s been hired by a huge record label in New York?” Paul tells her one day, and she can’t help but feel her heart sink at the news.

    Aster’s happy for her. She really is. But she’s now concluded that a few years now might mean never.

    ---

    For years, Aster’s asked God to show her at least a glimpse of what lies in her future. She spends long nights even pleading to him to give her a sign. But she should’ve known from the start that she shouldn’t bargain with God.

    Call it destiny, call it fate, or call it even karama—but Aster definitely got damn more than what she asked for, and she’s not sure what to do about it.

    Summary

    This is a rendition of the movie the half of it from Aster's point of view. I begin at the hallway scene as this if the first Time Aster Speaks. Who knows were it will go from here but I plan to do the whole movie. Expect Some serious closeted lesbian crushing.
    The name of this fic is a play on Aster's name which means Daisy flower essentially.

    Summary

    “No, I don’t think that’s dumb at all,” Aster smiles at her. “I feel the same.” In fact, Aster feels almost overwhelmed because she feels more open and exposed around Ellie than she has ever felt, even around her own family. She just doesn’t understand why.

    or

    Five times Aster Flores is unsure about her sexuality and one time she isn’t.

    Summary

    Paul interrupts them, winning another game of Rock Band (Ellie doesn’t know much about it, but it seems like the sort of thing you can win at), seemingly unaware of their own conversation, the fact that they’re in their own little bubble. Honestly, Ellie has to hand it to him, he hasn’t been weird at all about her and Aster finally getting together.

    After good 10 minutes of moving and trying to find the perfect spot and making a quick change into her painting clothes, Aster finally seemed to be ready to start. Not that Ellie was secretly waiting to be a witness to this specific process, but she hasn't typed a single word since the other girl gave indications of what she was about to do.

    Summary

    “Wait!” A hard tug on her arm turns her back around again and Aster is crying. There are tears streaming down her face from those beautiful, brown eyes now dark with anguish. Aster pulls Ellie towards her and presses her lips to hers. Her lips are as soft as the first time they kissed and Ellie swallows back a sob, pressing harder into her and kissing her back fiercely. She tastes salt mixed in with Aster’s usual sweetness, and Ellie feels like she can’t breathe. She can’t move, and certainly can’t bear to leave. Every single cell in her body screams as Aster pulls away again.

    “A few years. Come back to me in a few years.” Aster whispers shakily and Ellie nods.

    “Promise me!” Aster shakes her with a fistful of Ellie’s shirt in her hands.

    “I will.” Ellie whispers.

    Then she turns around and leaves.

    Or

    The one where Ellie grows up an orphan and Aster is the daughter of a wealthy pastor that owns her group home. When Ellie gets herself into big trouble in the harsh Central City streets, Aster may be the only one who can help her.

    Summary

    The stars fill up the dark, overflowing out the edges of her vision, and when she breathes out she imagines the white cloud of her breath dissipating into the picture of it all and mingling with the hazy swirls of the universe. That a part of her is flying, high, somewhere beyond reach.

    Aster is good at thinking. Aster is so good at thinking that she can deliberately shut down certain thoughts, while simultaneously being hyperaware that she is not thinking about them.
