Summary
Adora’s walking down the aisle, her arm hooked through her father’s, her white dress flowing behind her. She feels her heart racing, excitement dashing across her nerves; everyone is looking at them. She glances through the crowd, a soft smile on her face as she greets all the faces of their loved ones.
Just as she is about to turn back towards the altar, where her fiance stands looking handsome and kind as ever, she sees a flash of gold and blue. A woman she’s never seen before, is making her way towards the back of the cathedral, her striking heterochromatic gaze catching Adora’s. Her freckles pop out against her bronze skin, and crinkles form near her honey amber and ocean blue eyes as she returns the soft smile Adora had been giving everyone.
The woman keeps moving, as does Adora, as she feels something so wholly unfamiliar course through her body. All she knows in this moment is that that was the most beautiful woman she has ever seen, and all she wants is a chance to say hello.

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.

Summary
“It’s not that funny!”
Adam clutches his sides, and Adora can practically see his diaphragm shaking. “Oh my gods, ‘Dor, it really, really is.”
The conversation had started out well enough. Adora had mentioned she was going to bring a girl to his wedding if he was okay with it. Adam had said of course it was okay, and then for some reason mentioned how proud he was of her for figuring herself out. Adora quickly clarified that she was not, in fact, gay, and that’s when the laughing had started.
-OR-
Adora loves her family. She really does. But they can be a little homophobic at times. So Adora comes up with the perfect plan: she's going to bring a woman to her brother's wedding. And who better than Catra, from her rugby team? After all, Catra is... basically perfect. If Adora were into women, it would totally make sense that she'd be into Catra. She's just an ally, obviously, but like... even Adora knows Catra would be a great girlfriend.
This prank is going to be perfect.
