    Summary

    Rhaenyra looked at Alicent from top to bottom, drinking her in. Without any trace of shame, her eyes stopped at her cleavage. The smooth skin seemed to glow under the flames. Taking a step closer – so close she could feel Alicent’s body heat –, she inhaled heavily, like Syrax would do when smelling the prey she was about to devour. The scent of lavender invaded her nostrils.

    This made Rhaenyra smile.

    “I think you know exactly why you are here, Alicent.” She whispered, looking deep into her eyes.

    “Do I?” The Queen’s body seemed to vibrate, even if she was trying to hide it.

    Summary

    [Formerly titled: Please don’t (let me fall in love with you)]

    ‘I promise you, Vi: she’s the real deal.’

    Vi rocks back in her chair, folding her arms and pursing her lips. Her gut is normally trustworthy, and her gut is yelling at her to run the fuck away from this one.

    But the tour is only days away. Tickets aren't selling, and from what she can see on social media it's because people are worried they're just going to cancel from the lack of a bass guitarist. Her options have been dwindling rapidly, and the only one she has left now is on her producer's desk, peering up at her from glossy stock paper, looking as unimpressed by the situation as Vi feels.

    She rocks forwards again, staring hard at the image. This woman — this Caitlyn — is holding the guitar comfortably between her hands, her fingers are positioned correctly along its strings, and Vi supposes that perhaps it's not all carefully-styled bluster.

    This is gonna be nothing but trouble, she thinks bitterly.

    — OR —

    Rock band AU inspired by @_nxahh's art, they're enemies to friends to lovers, and Vi is an absolute idiot (affectionate).

    Summary

    When Caitlyn releases one hand to cup under Vi’s jaw, tilting her head up until their noses are brushing— she knows this is where they’re going to meet their destiny: on a path forked like a snake’s tongue. For better or for worse.

    “Why have we never kissed?” Caitlyn asks, mouths so close that Vi can feel her words.

    Vi’s fist tightens on her back, crumpling the material of her tank top in it. “Because we shouldn’t.”

    Summary

    Vi lets Caitlyn say things to her that she would never, ever take from anyone else.

     

    “You’re wrong.”
    “You acted rashly.”
    “Perhaps there is a way to resolve this without punching someone.”

    But also. You know. Other stuff. Embarrassing stuff.

    No matter what anyone says, Caitlyn will always look at Vi like she hung the stars in the sky. And maybe, just maybe, Vi might look at her the same way.

    Sheriff Caitlyn and her partner Vi share a quiet moment in Cait's office.

    Summary

    The woman at the bar has been pretending not to watch Vi for the last hour. Usually, Vi would be the last person to object – the woman is around her age, with sharp, focused eyes and a mouth Vi would love to get a begrudging smile out of – but it isn’t the first time she’s seen her. Not just in The Last Drop, either. The woman always has that same, calculated focus, and is constantly glancing down to write in the notebook she always carries.

    Summary

    Caitlyn flushes bright red before stuttering yet again, which is getting really annoying, actually, so Jinx shoves the cupcake into Caitlyn’s hands before repeating, “Do you love my sister?”

    (Love, see, comes in many forms. Sometimes it’s between a topsider enforcer born into nobility and a trencher who spent a decade in prison with a list of bodies to her name. Sometimes it’s between two fucked up sisters who don’t know how to care for each other anymore.)

    Summary

    Considering it hadn’t been all that long since her mother had literally kicked in her door, Caitlyn is well aware that this is a very, very bad idea. Yes, they’d shut the door, yes, they’d locked it, but one can never really be too careful. She’s been making a lot of unwise decisions lately, what’s so wrong about being selfish just this once and adding one more to the list?

    Summary

    “Sterling,” April says again, almost…tenderly? “Baby, you’re awake.”

    Baby?

    “What—why are you here?” Sterling manages to choke out, and that’s when April’s face falls.

    As far as Sterling's memory is concerned, she's a straight high school junior with a sweet boyfriend and a loving, uncomplicated family.

    Turns out, a lot changed in the last year and a half that she doesn't remember.

    Summary

    This first month since her father got back from prison has been inarguably worse, almost numbingly so, April going about her routine like a robot, paralyzed of what will happen if she breaks it. It’s been day after day of school, clubs, dinner, homework, lying awake in bed, heart pounding fast with fear about what resides in her house, finally falling asleep, having an erotic dream about Sterling Wesley, waking up in a state of both fear and arousal, taking a very long shower, repeat.

    It’s been exhausting to say the least. And April’s not stupid, she’s known it would have to end at some point.

    She just didn’t expect it to end with a fire on her front lawn.

    Summary

    “April’s right,” Blair says, and in April’s ten years and eleven months on this planet, she’s not sure there’s a greater satisfaction than those two words right after each other. 

    “Thank you,” she says smugly. 

    “But!” Blair says, grinning, “our party is so going to be better than yours.”

    “Oh, you’re so on.”

    “Can we not?” Sterling asks. They both ignore her. 

    It becomes a sort of competition then, to see who can have the better party. All under the guise of good fun of course. But April will not lose.

    Or, April celebrating Sterling's birthday over the years.

    Summary

    “You’re impossible,” April says, just a hair softer than before, but enough for Sterling to notice.

    Then she’s turning around and jogging away, and Sterling notices the way her t-shirt rides up her lower back, the winter sunlight striking the inch of exposed skin rebelliously peeking through. Sterling swallows, watching the way the muscles in April's thighs tense and release with each purposeful step, and almost falls over again.

    “Blair,” she hisses, once they’re finally released from gym class, “something crazy just happened, for the first time in months, since everything, I was… horny again.”

    If Sterling’s not mistaken, something like a tear forms in Blair’s eye, before she’s crushing Sterling in a hug.

    “I’ve never been more proud of you.”

    “Ezequiel, I can’t do it.”
    Ezequiel rolls his eyes, already used to her panicking. He’s probably tired of her complaining.
    “April, we’ve been over this,” he says. He grasps her shoulders, trying to put on a serious face that looks like it’s trying to do exactly the opposite. “You’ve been waiting your whole life for college. This is your moment.”

    “So who exactly does April Stevens even need protection from?” Sterling asks.

    Bowser and Yolanda exchange a look, one that tells Sterling the siblings certainly haven’t heard the whole story. It worries her but she shrugs the concern away for the time being.

    “Her father.”

    Sterling doesn’t know if that was Bowser or Yolanda, because her brain short circuits the moment she hears it.

    Her father.

    John Stevens.

    The same John Stevens that was arrested ten years ago for domestic abuse, corruption, trafficking and a long list of other crimes Sterling doesn’t have time to remember.

    Things are already tense as April swipes into their shared room at the end of the hall, but it gets a whole lot worse when they actually enter. Ellen had promised the team double queen bed rooms; Sterling and April stand in silence and stare at the single king bed in front of them. Sterling’s heart is doing this thing where it climbs into her throat and beats against her windpipe, and she can’t swallow down any air at the thought of sleeping in such close proximity to April.
