    Summary

    “It’s a lot easier for me to keep my grip on you when I can actually feel your body.”

    The phrase feel your body said in Kara’s voice rattles around in Lena’s head like a pinball machine, but she manages to shrug her sweater off and throw it somewhere behind them before she can second-guess herself. Kara is looking comfortable in a loose white t-shirt, and when she takes Lena by the waist and puts Lena’s hand on her shoulder the texture of it is light and soft.

    “Let’s start from square one,” Kara says, so kindly that her next words take a few seconds to register in Lena’s brain. She tightens her grip on Lena’s waist, and says with full confidence:

    “Dancing is a lot like sex.”

    OR

    Against her better judgement Lena agrees to compete on Dancing with the Stars for the PR boost. When her chemistry with her partner Kara gets misconstrued by the press, there’s obviously only one solution.

    AKA, a Dancing with the Stars/Fake Dating AU.

    Summary

    “I’m always amazed at how you’re not kidnapped or dead in a ditch. Your luck is almost annoying.”

    “What can I say?” Vi grinned with that casual leaning shrug. “God is a woman, and She thinks I’m hot.”

     

    Vi and Cait are coworkers on the second season of their hit show. Their characters onscreen have great chemistry and are popular with fans, but the actors themselves? Barely get along.

    Until they have to.

    Summary

    Vi ignored him as movement outside the window caught her eye and she leaned over to see what it was. Her neighbor looked up, their eyes meeting for a brief second. A scowl appeared on the young woman’s face and Vi quickly moved away from the window and took her seat again at the drumset.
    “Fuck me,” she mumbled.
    Ever since her neighbor had moved in a couple of months ago, it had been nothing but complaint, complaint, complaint. She hated Vi’s music, she hated her friends. She hated the way Vi’s cooking smelled (when she had the misfortune of burning it once or twice). She had threatened to call the landlord when Vi flipped her off after a petty argument about whose responsibility it was to bring the trash cans to the curb. Vi couldn’t stand her.

    Summary

    “All right. Let’s keep moving, Lena Luthor,” Kara says softly, quietly, “the touchy drunk.”

    “Tipsy, you mean. Not drunk, Kara Danvers,” Lena firmly states, “who has really nice biceps.”

    or Lena runs into a blonde woman and meets her mortal enemy. Kara moves into her new apartment and meets her best friend for life.

    OR Kara Danvers is cute, and handsome, and funny, and smart, and Lena’s just living her life trying not to think about how much she really, really, really wants to kiss her.
