Summary
“But Beth,” Another moment passes, and all playfulness disappears from Addy’s face, replaced by as much sincerity as she can muster, “You are the best thing that’s ever happened to me, and I’m sorry that I forgot that for a while there. I’m serious when I say that I never want to be apart from you again.”
“I feel the same way, Addy,” Beth places a hand over Addy’s - the one that’s still cupping Beth’s cheek - and links their fingers together. Then, slowly and without breaking eye contact, Beth turns her head and presses the ghost of a kiss to the palm of Addy’s hand, and Addy’s heart skips a beat. “I never want to be apart from you again. I never want to have to miss you again.”
Or
How Addy and Beth fall apart, come back together, fall apart again, and find their way back together.

Summary
“I’ve heard that back in the day, when they sent in people to rake the blood out of the sand, they had to pick shreds of girl-meat out from between the tigers’ teeth. But those,” she said, pitching her voice low and watching everyone lean in, “were loser bitches, and we’re not like them. And since they banned menagerie fights, we’re the only beasts on the floor. I want us cleaning our own teeth when this is all over.”
All those faces turned in her direction, radiating loyalty and bloodthirst. Addy, afterwards, stroking along the white flash of Beth’s smile, Beth lightly catching the pad of Addy’s thumb between her teeth.

When she looks up, her eyes meet Addy’s and something clicks.
...
Beth looks at Addy for half a second. Addy’s already looking at her out of the corners of her eyes. -

Summary
"I can taste that- fucking chocolate, the fucking cinnamon."
"I wonder who's fault that is," Addy's voice is sly, and Beth's adoring gaze contorts into a half-glare.
"...I'm not complaining," She concedes after a pause, though stubbornly. "In fact," she continues, her tone shifting deviously to match Addy's, "It's kind of nice, from your tongue. You got any more where that came from?"
"Sure," Addy answers, still smiling. "We've got all day, and I've got to forget the boy."

Summary
[Reposting this fic because I'm pretty sure it didn't post to the fandom tag the first time and I'm only just realising???? Hello if you've already read this I just rearranged the tags & notes a little]
The stability of where she stands in the school gym or on the football field is all she has now. Held up by the one rule her squad has always known—
Eyes on your girl.
And she knows she's cursed to adhere to it, no matter how heavily her own girl's eyes become clouded over by wanderlust. Even if she ends up unable to see her at all, because despite their everything, she's the rope tethering Addy to this tight-knit town.
