    Summary

    “I’m sorry, Jackie. I’m sorry, I—“

    “I’m your Coach, sweetheart.”

    Jackie doesn’t even think about the words; they come out stern, as firm as the open palm she plants between Shauna’s shoulder blades to stop her squirming, and Jackie hates herself for them immediately.

    Not enough to stop, though.

    OR:

    Shauna makes trouble during practice. Jackie puts her in her place, and makes an unexpected discovery along the way.

    Note: Not to be confused with Put Me In, Coach! Author just thinks she’s very funny.

    Summary

    Love isn’t quite the right word for what Shauna feels for Jackie. It’s closer to obsession. She knows the tilt of Jackie’s voice when she’s lying, the rhythm of her silences, the shift in her posture before she says something biting.

    She studies Jackie like a language, desperate to become fluent.

    But Jackie is fluent in withholding. And no matter how closely Shauna watches, she can’t see inside her head.

    Not really.

    Until she finds an inconspicuous notebook.

    Or Shauna reads Jackie’s journal and it makes everything better. And then much, much worse.

    Summary

    Jackie likes to remind her that she's not gay. Always right before they do something that Shauna considers to be kinda gay.

    Or

    What if these two hook up when they drink and then don't talk about it after?

    Summary

    [Pre-crash / No crash AU]

    They've been best friends since childhood, but Shauna has two massive secrets she keeps from Jackie: That she's desperately in love with her, and that she also deeply resents her.

    With a few months left until their high school graduation and Nationals on the table, everything changes for Jackie and Shauna when Jackie breaks up with Jeff and one of their usual late-night makeouts crosses a line that can't be un-crossed. As their friendship turns sexual, Shauna tries to decode what it all means while she waits for an acceptance letter from Brown and hopes to leave Jackie—and the feelings she's always had for her—behind.

    Summary

    “That’s…” Shauna blinked. “I mean I guess I can see your logic. Who are you gonna kiss?”

    There was a beat. A weirdly long, silent beat. And Jackie looked down at her lap, picking at a loose thread on her pajama pants. Then, very softly, like she wasn’t sure how it would sound once it was out in the world: “Well… you’re here.”
