Summary
if you would let me give you pinky promise kisses
then I wouldn't have to scream your name atop of every roof
in the city of my heart.
if I could see you,
once more to see you.
OR; As her kitten keels clacked across the floor she tried to keep her sight straight ahead, not to her peers or the teacher with her pulse beating, a pounding in her forehead. So many people. People were scary. The teacher was speaking when she entered but stopped since then. Amy’s eyes gave an involuntary glance to the board and met with steel green ones, behind square rimmed glasses, and she swore that they were drilling a hole through her, skipping across her body only to land on her face.
OR OR; Ellie is a professor, Amy is her student. It was only ever supposed to be that simple. Until it wasn't that simple. -

Summary
She scurried off, tail between her bambi legs, steps surprisingly light while wearing such thick combat boots. He ended up going in the opposite direction of her and was thankful for that. Didn’t want to seem like a .. creeper, a pervert. But when in his car, he didn’t pull off. Joel, he told himself. Start the car. Reverse it. Peel the fuck out of here so you can get more than two hours of sleep. But he didn’t. He watched her. Watched her, walking on her lonesome, way past midnight in her skimpy clothes under the flickering road lights. It wasn’t safe enough to be doing things like that. Not anywhere, but specifically not around here.
This girl ain’t his business. This girl ain’t his problem. This girl—
He started to follow her.
OR
You're such an angel
And I'm gonna hurt you.

Joel pays for some girls' Skittles. It only escalates from there, or rather, it only goes downhill from there. -

Summary
There was nothing like the sound of a thousand horses’ feet hitting the ground at once. Thump, thump, thump. Coming from over the hill in the distance, closing in. The sky filled with smoke, blazing red, fire. Fire behind those horses. A chorus of spirited screams that travelled to their houses, through the cobblestone streets. The sound of defeat. The sound of imposing death.
The fathers and sons and friends and brothers of her humble kingdom were sure to be trampled under those horses, an awful, endless squelching of bodies. That sound was all the proof she needed. They’d lost. They’d lost.OR; Athena is a peasant girl from a poor kingdom with nothing but nerve and a heart of gold to her name. But King Joel of Cera sees more than that.
OR OR; The dark fantasy Joel AU nobody wanted but I delivered anyway cause I do what I want. -

Summary
Joel stares at her. Her eyes are bright, so youthful it hurts, but with a shadow of maturity that feels uncomfortable on her juvenile face. She’s still waiting expectantly, still dripping a puddle onto the floor as she grips the grab rail with one hand, fingers jittery against her jeans on the other. Who is letting her ride public transport alone like this? Who is letting her get lost and have to ask a man she doesn't know for help?
Joel forces down the thoughts racing through his head, rapid beat to a butterfly’s wings. This girl is none of his goddamn business.
...
[or modern au where joel and ellie meet by chance on boston's public transit; things only escalate from there.]

Summary
“Kid, get the hell outta my tree.”
Stupid fucking neighbors. She’s never even seen the person who lives here before.
“It’s not your tree,” she calls back, infusing her tone with as much attitude as she can muster. “No one owns a tree.” Deep breaths, Ellie. Can’t give away how scared you are, especially not to a stranger. Especially especially not to a man.
“Tree’s on my property. I own the property, so I own the tree. Now scram.”

Summary
Winnie used to know what she was doing - at least, she thought so anyway. When the life she thought she wanted falls apart in the 'Big City', she moves home with her father to give herself a second chance to pretend like she wasn't falling apart at the seams.
Pretending was her favorite pastime, if her small town gossip was to be believed. She also kept trying to pretend like her father's new friend and new neighbor, Joel Miller, wasn't the absolute distraction that he was. If she kept telling herself that his Texas drawl was just annoying, she could ignore him. . . right?
