    Summary

    "...but I can't say 'you're controlling and smothering and I need to never see you again if I'm ever going to grow a spine,'" Eddie said, avoiding Richie's eyes. "So I just skipped ahead to the part where I told her I was gay."

    Summary

    Modern College AU.

    It hurt her to listen to the ruthless voice in her head, but, as much as she hated to admit it, El knew it was probably right.
    It had happened countless times before. Well, actually two. Two times in which El found herself feeling funny and giddy and hopeful about someone, only to be disappointed. It always ended that way. She was destined to be alone and it was probably for the best.

    AKA: Socially awkward Jane Ives' first semester in college.
    Also AKA: Not your typical nice-boy-meets-drunk-girl-at-a-party Mileven fic (because of all the angst and slowwwww burn, be warned).

    Summary

    Five years after escaping the top security facility that she had been imprisoned in for her entire life, twenty-one year old El is hiding in plain sight with her fellow super-powered escapee, Max. Using fake names and forged identities, the two try to find purpose in their everyday lives while also dealing with the haunting mistakes that were made in their pasts.

    Finally comfortable in her concealed life, El is working in a local bookstore when a tall, freckled boy with eyes as dark as midnight stumbles into her life. Mike Wheeler makes her head spin and shows her life as she has never known it before.

    When dark memories are brought back into her life, will El allow her loved-ones to face the danger with her? Will she clue them in on her past and the horrors within it? Or do they already know more than she thinks?

    Modern Day AU with a superhero twist.

She has more walls in place than the popular crowd cares to tear down, and he’s more than a little paranoid about reaching out to girls like her, but fate still finds its ways of pushing them together.
