Summary
“She is just so… frustrating,” Beatrice had uttered, exasperation in her voice. “Maybe I am jealous that she is so friendly and just always on, you know and I-”
“You do know it’s not jealousy, right?” Mary had interrupted her, blocking Beatrice’s swift hits.
“What do you mean?”
“You like her, Beatrice,” Mary enunciated.
or the office AU where Ava and Beatrice collaborate on an exhibition, and there's an ongoing bet on how long it'll take for them to get together.

Summary
“Some people think a soulmate is the person God creates for you. Others say it’s the soul yours has been drawn to time and time again, throughout multiple lives. Some even believe that each pair was formed during the creation of the universe itself.” Beatrice looks up at the sky, as though she might find an answer somewhere in the long dead stars hanging above them. “I’ve always liked that one, actually; that the particles ripped into being alongside each other formed a connection that would last as long as our universe did. I’m not sure it makes much sense in practice. But it sounds lovely.”
“Less cruel, at least,” Ava murmurs, and Beatrice turns at the sadness in her voice, drawing in a sharp breath when she sees the emotion so amplified in Ava’s eyes. “Because a god who created the whole soulmates thing in the first place, told you that you don’t get one, and then made you spend your entire life telling other people about theirs kind of sounds like a huge asshole, if you think about it.”
Which is, of course, why Beatrice so often tries not to think about it. Especially when Ava is looking at her the way she is now and she’s reminded of all the things she’ll never have (all the things she desperately wants).

Summary
“You must be Beatrice.”
Beatrice can’t hide the surprise on her face. She feels her eyebrows rise almost into her hairline, then realizes she probably resembles an oxygen starved fish, and forces her mouth shut and head to nod. She isn’t sure what it is about this woman that has rendered her momentarily speechless. Being lost for words isn’t typically what Beatrice is known for. She works in an environment that requires quick thinking and intelligence, but right now, simple cognitive processes evade her.
The woman smiles at her again, her teeth white and straight, and steps closer to hold out her hand.
“It’s really nice to finally meet you.” She says, eyes shining. “I’m Ava.”
//
or, Beatrice returns home after years away, and Ava is the new groundskeeper on the enormous Young estate.

Summary
“Well, what you need is somebody who’s extremely lovable.”
Beatrice scoffs. “Yeah? And who’s going to agree–”
“You know who.” Camila raises both of her eyebrows in smug anticipation.
“No,” Beatrice says firmly. “No. I am not asking Ava to fake-date me.”
OR:
Beatrice panics and tells her mother that she has a girlfriend when she does not. The solution?
Ava pretends to be her girlfriend for a week.
