Summary
Erica Sinclair was not nice.
And that was okay.
Nice was passive. Nice was avoiding conflict even when things needed to change. Nice was short-term comfort.
But when Suzie breaks up with Dustin over email after ten years together, Erica proves it's better to be kind than nice.
Or:
Erica fixes Dustin's broken heart over ice cream and insults.
(The more I think about it, the more I'm surprised there aren't many romantic Duerica fics. They fit so well into the Older Brother's Best Friend trope).

Summary
You told yourself it was harmless: Dustin Henderson’s curls had always been there. They were part of the landscape of friendship, like late-night talks and shared trauma and knowing exactly how he took his coffee.
Except at some point, without asking your permission, they stopped being just curls.
You started noticing them. Which meant you started noticing him. And once that happened, it became impossible not to notice the way he looked back.
—
OR: you accidentally fall in love with your best friend by staring at his hair too much.

Summary
Your existence had been a meticulously crafted illusion of domestic bliss. But then, a single, jarring phone call shattered the fragile facade, revealing the horrifying truth of his meticulously constructed double life, a betrayal so profound it felt like a physical blow.
Now, with Vox forcing your hand in a desperate, last-ditch attempt at self-preservation, you find yourself grasping at the most unthinkable lifeline: Alastor Hartfelt, the very man you believed you despised.
Every agonizing day is a new trial, a breathless dance on the precipice of ruin. You're locked in a desperate struggle against Valentino, New Orleans' most elusive and notorious pimp whose shadow constantly lengthens, threatening to consume you whole. And amidst this terrifying tango with death, a new, unsettling feeling blossoms—a dangerous, burgeoning attraction to the man who is simultaneously your refuge and your ultimate undoing. Each near-fatal encounter tightens the invisible noose, the stakes escalating with every ragged breath. The choice is stark, brutal, and etched in blood: escape Valentino's suffocating grip, or lose everything you've secretly, shamefully, believed neither of you deserved.
