It wasn’t until Adora collapsed into the backseat of the cab and went to pull out the address that she realized.
This was not her freaking phone.

“Why are you here?” Adora asks.
Catra steps in close, gratified when Adora takes a shaky step back and then another, til her back is up against the wall of the gym. “Would you believe that I missed you?”
--
When Adora transfers from Horde Academy to Bright Moon Prep in their final year of high school, she and Catra pretty much stop talking. Until they don't.

Summary
“I’m not sure what it is you’re looking to hear,” Adora says slowly, “but do you believe in ghosts?”
Catra’s scowl hardens even further. “Don’t. Don’t you dare go there.”
“All I mean is, from everything I’ve studied, this shouldn’t be possible. Either you're a princess of a faraway land that I don’t know about, which is highly unlikely, or…”
“Or what?” Catra snaps. “Are you trying to tell me you think I’m fucking dead?”

Summary
She was probably about to tell her to fuck off, though maybe—hopefully—she'd say it nicely. Catra closed her eyes and hoped when she opened them that this whole situation was just a figment of her imagination. Instead, she saw a one word reply. One single word.

Adora Grayskull is the popular jock, the golden girl, the one that everyone loves. Catra D’riluth is the opposite. Yet despite this, they form an unlikely bond.

Summary
Adora clamps her hands to the sides of her head as a few more tears make their way down her face.
“It hurts!!”
“Adora, what hurts? What’s going on?” WHY. DOES. SHE. CARE?! She’s been standing here listening to this girl confess that she watched her best friend get beaten by their caregiver for years and did nothing! Yet, the look of pain on Adora’s face looks so real it actually scares Catra.
“I told,” Adora gasped, “I tell her she will never hurt you again. That you’re my friend and I won’t let her touch you! She just laughs at me...and grabs my head and suddenly everything goes red and zappy! Like..like her powers! And it hurts sooo bad, but then...I wake up. It’s like nothing ever happened, but I always wake up with a headache. Every time.”

After managing to infect She-Ra at the Northen Reach, Catra is the one forced to look after her ex-best friend at the base. During this time, she learns that maybe Adora didn't have it as lucky as she thought. Now she has to decide whether to keep this information to herself or doing something about it and if risking everything to save the only person that mattered to her will be worth it in the end.- Language:

Summary
A scrapbook of memories and this is the one that sits on the very first page, but she knows she knew Catra long before that too, and they’d fallen together again every summer like the rest of the year didn't even exist.
It was a mystery to Adora, still, as to why everything had so violently torn apart that last July after they'd presented. She’d been expecting a little anger, resentment maybe, but she hadn’t prepared herself for four years of cold, absent silence.
She accepts it was her fault.
She wishes she knew why.

Wanna Hear Your Mother Tongue by CommanderBoshtet

Summary
Adora and Catra grow up in foster care with a horrible excuse for a parent. It sucks, but they have each other...until they don't.
When Adora is taken away, Catra's life changes forever. 10 years later, Adora is an aspiring investigative journalist at Brightmoon Times writing for Glimmer, who she lives with along with their friend Bow. She thinks life is good but doesn't realize what she's missing. On the other hand, Catra has always known what she's missing. She's finally pulling her life together, has a family and band called The Horde, and is getting sober.
When the two meet again, it's not an idyllic fairy tale--it's a mess, and overwhelming, and incredible, but so, so confusing. And it's right. It's always been right.

Summary
“Oh? What were you thinking about, exactly?”
“About the day we met,” Adora answered easily.
Catra hummed at the memory. “You mean the best day of my life? I remember it well.”
She snorted. “Please. It was not. You almost drowned!” Her denial was met with an arched eyebrow.
“You doubt my word?”
“I doubt your ability to be serious.”
With a shrug of acquiescence. “I suppose that’s fair,” she mused quietly, slowly walking towards her. “But I assure you…” Catra came close, dangerously close. “I’m quite serious,” she crooned.
Adora smiled. “Why was it the best day of your life?” She only closed her eyes when the other woman traced fingers down her cheek, enjoying the volts of electricity that seemed to pulse along her skin where Catra touched her.
“The day I met you?” She could feel her pulse in her ears as they twitched, her throat running dry. She gripped what remained of her courage and continued. “The day I met the love of my life? How could it not be the best day?” Catra held her breath for just a moment before continuing on. “Adora… you do know that I love you… right?”

Like Something I Wasn't Aware I'd Left Behind by SolarPoweredFlashlight

Summary
Coping with her stressful studies on the way to certification as a physiotherapist, Adora has fallen into a local community theatre as a way to have fun and make new friends. She's made a place for herself there and everything is going great when she lands one of the lead roles of their newest play - until she shows up to the first rehearsal and the person cast in the role of her romantic opposite is Catra, who she hasn't seen since the breakup eight years ago when she left Catra behind to move across the country for a soccer scholarship.
But there's no denying the obvious chemistry between them when they get on stage, and the director won't hear of anybody else playing the roles.

Summary
Her hand flew to it immediately and she could feel the slightly raised imprint of the name now on her skin, for life: the name of her soulmate. Her skin prickled over her body and a nervous cold sweat ran the length of her spine, so she took a moment to collect herself before looking down to read the name.
And when she did, her jaw dropped to the floor.
“Oh you’ve got to be fucking kidding me.”

And They Were Roommates by auspicious_shipss
Fandoms: She-Ra and the Princesses of Power (2018)
05 Oct 2020
Tags
Summary
Adora misses her best friend, but she's usually too busy with practice and studying to spend time with Catra. That is, until they start rooming together sophomore year and Adora starts feeling emotions she doesn't quite know how to identify...
Catra's accepted the fact that Adora has new friends and their friendship will never be the same again, but that doesn't change her crush. Maybe if she just finds someone to help her get over Adora, it will all be okay.
(Loosely based on that one reddit post where the guy is worried that he's homophobic because he doesn't like seeing his roommate with other men but it turns out he's just gay for his roommate.)

Summary
Bright Moon was a small tourist town. The kind of place people visited, not the kind of place they stayed in. So for someone like Adora, looking to take a little time to grow up and prepare herself for the next step in her life, spending a year here made sense.
It was just supposed to be a stop in the road to bigger and better things. But the people were so nice and Adora had never really had a lot of friends growing up.
Then there was Catra. The kind of person that could throw a wrench into even the most well thought out plan.
