  1. Summary

    As I listened to every single Bleachers song on repeat, I realized that so many of them fit Zutara so well! And so, I challenged myself to write a one shot for every single song.

    Please note that these are in track order, not chronological order. And that even within this series, there are two continuities: one where they get together after Southern Raiders, and one where they've spent a bit of time in their canon relationships.

    Once they're all finished and published, I'll go through and either list proper viewing order, or create two more series that have each continuity in the correct order.

    Summary

    “Excuse me. Sorry. Can I – can I borrow – I really need to use your phone. It’s an emergency.”
    The older doctor looks up sharply.
    It might just be the way his eyebrows are shaped, but his eyes are kind of terrifying, the way he's glaring up at her.

    (or, what if Emma runs into Dr. Brendon Park in 2x10)

    Summary

    “—and I know that there’s Becca and Tanner and Millie to consider, but I was wondering if you maybe wanted to move in? Together? With me?”

    Mel blinks. He certainly doesn’t look like he’s having a stroke.

    “Frank, why would we move in together?”

    “I thought it might be nice,” he shrugs here, acting nonchalant even though Mel can see the tension in his jaw. “To take that next step in our relationship.”

    “Frank, what are you talking about? We’re not in a relationship?”

    At this, Frank’s frown deepens before widening into a frustrated half smile. “Uh, yes we are? We’ve been dating for nine months?”

    What.

     

    Or, Frank thinks Mel doesn’t do physical touch.
    Or, Mel doesn’t realize they’ve been dating for nine months.

    Summary

    There are many ways to support your favorite player. Attending their games, for instance. Buying their jersey. Or, if you're trying to keep a secret relationship under wraps, you could drive four hours in the opposite direction, wrap yourself in a dollar store blanket with eyeholes cut in it, and attempt to blend in with the locals.

    It's foolproof. Nothing could possibly go wrong.

    The internet would never figure it out.
