    Summary

    “So,” she starts, breath hoarse around the question she shouldn’t ask, shouldn’t even think. “Is your life ruined?”

     
    Leah turns back to the little window overlooking the parking lot and Bella stares at the back of her head, wondering if Leah will answer or if Bella should stay quiet or if she should leave and never come back.

     
    “I guess it’s not as ruined as I thought it would be.”

     
    Set during New Moon, an AU where Bella wakes up from her coma screaming at Renee, Charlie starts working through a lifetime of distance and discomfort to be there for his daughter, and Bella meets Leah in better circumstances.

    Summary

    As it turns out, dramatic gestures aren't always enough...and why didn't Abby have any of this on her bingo card for the year?

    Or: Abby and Riley find themselves coming together after Harper and Abby fall apart. Their roles in each other's lives evolve through the seasons.

    Canon compliant up until the "one year later" point in the movie - so this basically diverges after Christmas morning.

    Summary

    The first time Bella saw Leah was at Harry Clearwater’s funeral. While Bella knew it was wildly inappropriate and she was there to support her grieving father, she couldn’t stop staring at the insanely tall, insanely hot girl in the all black suit standing next to Sue and Seth Clearwater.

    Summary

    "Plus, I- I don’t want her to think—” She tucked her face closer, mumbling.
    Bow patted her arm. “Come on, use your words.”
    A pause.
    “… I don’t want her to think I’m needy ...”
    There was a cough as Glimmer stifled a laugh. “Adora has
    needs.”
    “Shut up! That’s not what I—”
    “Hey! Hey.” Bow lowered his voice. “We know that’s not what you meant. Adora, it’s perfectly okay to want a hug from your girlfriend.”
    “Is it?” she asked, small, genuine.

     

    Catra is both touch-starved and touch-averse and it's turning into a real problem.

    Summary

    “So?” Alex prompts.

    Kara looks up from the styrofoam container, already having broken apart her chopsticks. “So what?”

    “What do you mean so wha—Kara!” Kara freezes, chopsticks hanging in midair clutching a piece of kung pao chicken. There is real frustration and confusion in Alex’s voice. “Imagine my surprise when I sign in at the front desk and the nurse says that my sister-in-law is stable right now. Wanna tell me why you’re playing house to visit your best friend in the hospital?”

    Kara sets the chicken down. “Alex…”

    “Kara, you have ten seconds to explain why the entire staff thinks you and Lena are married and the answer had better not actually involve marriage or I swear to god I’ll…”

    ____________

    In which Kara is a whole entire idiot, Alex is a permanent mood, and Lena is just glad Kara is there for her, as her fake wife, while she recovers from another quarterly attempt on her life.
