Summary
Alicia grinned, bright and mischievous, “Well if you wanna keep the night going with your parents, you can bring them here.”
“Oh I’m sure they’d love to hear about Mother Nature’s bosoms and how waterfalls are actually her tears,” Leighton drawled, grabbing a new article of clothing from the now-smaller pile. “I think my dad will pass out at the sight of all the flyers we have on feminism and that box of free condoms and dental dams.”
Or…
Leighton is forced to go to dinner with her family. It goes about as well as you would expect.

Summary
"The thing is, it’s always been hard to hide. Or not hard; heavy, maybe. It’s always been heavy to hide. Or it has always been crushing to hide."

Summary
“We’re pretty cute, huh?” laughed Alicia, looking at her photo strip just as lovingly as Leighton. The blonde looked up and rolled her eyes, her huge smile betraying her attempt at being detached, “Don’t get all sentimental on me, Kimura,” Leighton smiled back. But Alicia knew the blonde felt just the same as Leighton cupped her face in her hands and leaned in with a kiss, not caring who could see them.
Or
Leighton's life being out at Essex starts to intersect with her closeted life at home - and something has to give

Summary
She wants to give her fingers permission to follow the path they’ve long since memorised to Alicia’s entry in her contacts and hit dial so that her tongue can trip over a promise to do better, a promise to try, a promise to be open in whatever ways she can learn how.
But she doesn’t.
Instead, she throws her head back, thumping her skull into the headrest — once, twice, three times — and wills herself not to cry.
or
Five times Leighton almost calls Alicia and one time she doesn’t have to.

Summary
“I would advise you be on time next time for pick up. It can make it so your kid gets the wrong message.”
“Listen,” she starts, leaning forward and putting her free hand on the table. “What’s your name?”
“Alicia,” comes the reply, simple, direct, undaunted. If anything, the woman is faintly amused.
“Alright. Listen here, Alicia,” Leighton hisses. “You know nothing about me. You know nothing about my family, and don’t you dare tell me—”
“MOM!”
Leighton forces her features to brighten as her eight-year-old daughter, one Nicole Jackson-Murray, comes barreling towards her.
(Or, a single-parent au where Leighton is picking up the pieces of her life, Alicia is a teacher at her daughter's school, and they both just really need to get their shit together.)

Summary
It wasn’t a guy. It was a girl…I’m gay.
Leighton missed Alicia more than she could possibly put into words. And yeah, Nico was right, as horrible as those words sounded together. She hadn’t dated anyone seriously…until Alicia. Until she met this five foot tall firecracker in the Women’s Center and her whole fucking world got flipped upside down.
Breakups sucked. She didn't realize that - and how could she, when she had never been in a serious relationship? - but all she wanted now was for Alicia to say she forgave Leighton.

Summary
In her defense, the guys in the line for the party smelled weird.
That’s what Leighton tells herself when she informs the group that she left her phone behind and needs to head out.
She does have to head out. Just not for her phone. She stalks around the corner of Theta’s house, making brief eye contact with her brother, ignoring the questioning look in his eyes and swallowing hard. It’s not any of his business.
She loves Nico. But this is for her.
Just this once. Something will be for her.
(Or, Leighton's perspective on the latter half of the first episode.)

Summary
“Yeah,” Leighton says, oddly touched, “I’m trying—I’m not trying to actively hide it anymore—I just—I don’t want it to define me.”
“Leighton,” Bela says, hand finding Leighton’s. Leighton braces herself for some sappy both my parents are present in my life shit. But Bela looks straight into her eyes and says, “no matter who you fuck, you will always be defined, first and foremost, as a huge cunt.”

Leighton comes out. Several times. It's annoying.

Summary
The first time she holds Alicia’s hand in public, they run right into all three of her roommates. Bela, Whitney and Kimberly all know, Leighton had told them earlier that week, but it’s still a startling experience, seeing someone she knows while she’s taking such a big step.

Five times Leighton unintentionally comes out, and one time she comes out on purpose.

Summary
Leighton steps through the arched entrance of Coney Island, eyes flickering around as she pulls off her jacket, a brown, faux-leather thing that’s meant more for the statement than to keep her warm. It is, afterall, the first few official days of true summer in the city, which means that nobody that’s in any way, shape, or form trying to look good would be wearing more than a single layer.
Gritting her teeth, Leighton comes to her usual conclusion: Francesca and Esmé are nowhere to be found.
(Or, when Francesca and Esmé ditch their plans with Leighton again, she finds herself alone in Coney Island. But only for a little while.)

Summary
“I miss you.”
“Nothing’s changed…” Alicia breathed out, exasperated and aching. It was evident in the broken syllables and broken eye contact. “This is the love we won’t get right.”
“Still… If you said that you wanted… I know I’ll always have one more try.”
This is a series of one shots surrounding Leighton and Alicia, inspired by song lyrics. I suck at summaries, but I promise the writing is decent.
