you did something to me by artemiswords

Summary
“Seriously, Adora. All that money for, like, holding hands in front of a camera? It can’t get easier than that. You endured me for like, ten years? I’m sure you can power through these four weeks.” She gets up and leans on the back of her chair, getting closer to Adora’s face. “Just don’t fuck it up and we’ll be fine.”
Adora scowls at her and forces herself to not start another argument. Catra ignores it and turns away.
“See ya later, girlfriend.” She says over her shoulder.
Girlfriend. Adora shudders at that word.
Only after Catra is gone Adora remembers they didn’t even plan anything out. She closes her eyes and rubs her temples again, taking another deep breath. Four weeks of pretending to be Catra’s girlfriend. Those are about to be the longest weeks of her life.

Summary
“Are you gay?” Andrea asks, tired of beating around the bush. “Do you like women?”
Nell stills.
“Because I do,” Andrea says. “I like to fuck women. I’m not in the business of making friends.”
Nell’s expression is hard to read in the dead of night. “What if I don’t know.”
Andrea shrugs and tries hard not to hate herself for fucking up every opportunity for normality that falls into her lap. “Stop flirting until you do.” -

Summary
Andrew glanced at the board and found his name at one of the pods of two rather than four (thank god), right next to the windows. Next to his name was ‘Neil Josten’, one Andrew didn’t recognize, but he had to be at least a sophomore to be in this class. Turning to find the right seats, Andrew found himself pausing as he walked, seeing the person he’d be sitting next to for the foreseeable future if Mr. Browning had his way.
And shit, this was either a good thing or a bad thing, because Andrew is very, very gay, and Neil was good looking enough to become a distraction very quickly.

Summary
“You,” Ed starts to interrupt him, then stops, clearing his throat. His voice is almost— gritting, cracking in the middle. When he starts again, he’s stronger, but still— shaky. “You made me this? I mean— You made this? For me?”
Stede’s not entirely sure what he means by that, but he has that little bubbling sensation he always gets when Ed is making him happy. It’s this simmering, glowing joy that always rises inside him, like it’s going to blow him up. He’s already smiling.
“I did,” Stede says. Ed sits up properly beside him, and Stede nudges his shoulder, jostles him a bit. “I thought you could use something a little bit soft. Besides me, you know.”
He’s expecting Ed to tease him in response, but instead, he doesn’t speak. He just keeps staring down at the blanket, clutched between his fingers.
or: five times stede did things for ed, and one time ed did something for stede. -

Summary
Stede finds that being a convicted felon makes job searching near impossible when the owner of a flower shop takes pity on him and gives him a job. It starts as just Stede fulfilling the requirements of his parole. He certainly didn't agree to the offer with the thought the business and the people around it would change his life.

Summary
At Thanksgiving dinner, Neil gets to Andrew faster. The result isn't any better. Neil is still a martyr, and Andrew struggles like never before to insist that he feels nothing.
Because there was someone waiting for Andrew upstairs, and they got Neil instead.
[Authors note: Sorry guys I'm re-writing this fic as of 2025 I have improved so much as a writer I simply have to do it (and for continuity reasons so I can keep proper notes this time). Later chapters I'll likely make more mild revisions to.]

Summary
The sun comes in patches, sneaking through the curtains that Andrew keeps hastily closed most of the time. Usually, it’s never enough to wake Andrew, not with the way he keeps his back plastered firmly to the wall, the sun always skips over him - lighting the other side of his bed instead and the rest of his room.
It’s different now though.
Now he isn’t sleeping in his bed alone.

or Andrew wakes up with Neil in his arms and emotions are still difficult.

Summary
“What can I get you, Neil Josten?”
Neil stood still, staring. He didn’t say a word for what felt like hours, enough time for some memories of blue eyes watching, always observing, to fill Andrew’s head. Say it, he thought, hoping with everything he had in him that this wasn’t some sort of hallucination. I need you to say it.
“I…” Neil choked out, pausing. “I would like a small coffee.”
It felt like Andrew had been physically struck. “Sure. Room for cream?”
“No,” Neil said. “Just black. Thanks.”
