    Summary

    University AU where Francesca is supposed to be in a perfectly loving relationship with her boyfriend, John, with a sensible future of marriage and children on the horizon, right up until John's cousin, Michaela Stirling, returns from a sabbatical abroad and Francesca finds herself, suddenly, hopelessly curious about another woman in ways that are utterly nonsensical.

    Now Francesca finds herself unable to stay away and trying very hard not to think about why telling Michaela she and John are dating feels like it would ruin everything. Surely keeping that little detail about her relationship status cannot be seen as lying if Michaela never asked. Right?

    --

    Or, finding the courage to be yourself before it's too late.

    --

    Doesn't love make us all a little crazy though? Or is that just Francesca?

    Summary

    Francesca moves from Essex to London because of her dazzling career as a famous pianist. Gaining wealth and love where ever she goes.
    Francesca wants to try new stuff like Pilates and Clubbing. Things she’s never done in her 20s because she was too focused on work.
    Now she’s met her Pilates instructor Johns cousin, Micheala Stirling at a lesson she booked and she can’t stop thinking about the 36 year old woman.
    What happens when Francesca tells Micheala she’s never been in a relationship and has never had sex before. How bad would it be to be teased into a pinnacle?

    Summary

    “Hello, Mrs. Silva. I’m Beatrice Young.” The woman reaches her hand out for a handshake. She has a posh accent, which Ava unfortunately finds very attractive. “At last we meet.”
    Oh. Ava blinks a couple of times. Beatrice Young, teacher of Year 3 A, had been e-mailing her for a few days, asking her for her lesson plans so they can synchronize their classes. From the e-mails, with their serious and professional tone, and her lesson plans, extremely meticulous and standardized, Ava could not have imagined that…
    Beatrice is very hot.
    “It’s Miss Silva.” Ava corrects, cringing a bit. This will be a correction she will have to make multiple times, she sees. “You can call me Ava, though.”

    OR: After a personal loss and a messy divorce, Ava Silva returns to teaching Year 3 at Sacred Heart of Mary Primary School, where she is excited to use her chaotic and revolutionary methods. Beatrice Young, her more traditional counterpart, only sees it as irresponsibility. When a (surprisingly fun) rivalry over class averages ignites between them, sparks fly (and not just the competitive type).

    Summary

    “So how can I help you today, James?”

    The man smiled sheepishly, ducking his head slightly and shoving his hands into the front pockets of his black slacks. “ Right,” James chuckled.”Straight to business, I’ll try not to take up much of your time. I know you are probably busy.” James straightened his posture, puffing out his chest, and lifting his head up high. “I want you back.”

    Lena’s eyes widened, she held back what she would assume to be a disgusted scoff. “That’s uh, nice?”

    --

    Or the one where to get James off Lena's back, Kara and Lena start to "fake" date.
