Summary
“Wyn, what are you asking me?”
“Well—Roark and I thought that maybe you and mum would date.”
“Date?” Andy repeats, her voice much too high. She looks down at the girl. “Well that’s really sweet, honey, and I like your mom a lot, but… your mom doesn’t date women. She doesn’t like other women like that.” Her excuse is flimsy. She doesn’t deny that she does like Emily how Bronwyn is insinuating but she hopes the girl doesn’t catch on.
Bronwyn furrows her eyebrows. “She doesn’t?”
OR
Bronwyn is nosy and gets into Andy’s head. Emily thinks she’s bad at kissing, so Andy agrees to help her test that theory.
(But is she bad at kissing or is she just a lesbian?Bookmarked by MeloF14

Summary
"...and I swear I repeated it a thousand times in my head: please ask about a girl, please ask about a girl, please ask about a girl. Because if you had, I wouldn't have hesitated for a single second. But you didn't."
"Winnie, please…"
"And then you sat down next to me, and you were being so tender and sweet that for a second, I felt like a little kid again. Like all I wanted was to just hide in my mom's arms. I wanted to tell you, of course I wanted you to know. I wanted to tell you how terrified I am of what's happening to me, that I’ve never felt anything like this before, that I'm scared of what people around me will say, I wanted you to just hold me and tell me that you're with me, and that everything is going to be okay."
OR: the line between friendship and love begins to blur for Emily and Andy. meanwhile, seventeen-year-old Bronwyn is navigating her own first love, and the fear of telling an overprotective mother about it. domestic fluff with a pinch of angst, featuring slow-burn feelings, mother-daughter dynamics, and the terror of coming out.

Summary
"Do you always come to the door dressed like that?" Emily heard herself ask, and immediately hated it, because it had come out as though she'd noticed, when the entire point was that she had not.
"Only when someone knocks." The corner of the woman's mouth went up. "Should I have changed? You'd have waited. I'd have liked knowing you were out here waiting for me."
"Is this how it works over here? You do a favour and then flirt with the woman on your doorstep and call it neighbourly?"
"Is that what you think I'm doing? Flirting?"
--
Or the one where Emily ends up letting the vampire who is great with her children drink her blood once a week for purely practical reasons. Like super practical. So practical. Please stop looking at her like that, Serena.

Summary
The thought arrived uninvited and immediately irritated her.
Across the table, Andrea was studying the condensation running down the side of her water glass, apparently oblivious to the fact that she had just made the last two decades considerably more confusing. People did not usually remember promotions, or cities someone had lived in, or the exact order in which those things had happened. They certainly didn’t recall them casually over lunch nearly twenty years later. At least, not unless they had been paying attention. Not unless, at some point, they had actively wanted to know.
And if Andrea had been paying attention all this time, then Emily suddenly found herself confronted with a question she had never once considered asking.
Why?
OR
Spiralling after your ex resurfaces after 20 years and has a version of events of your break up that is very much different to yours is normal, right? Emily Charlton is asking for a friend.
