Summary
"Like oil and water?
Like oil and water; yes, that's what you said.
Even though we were like oil and water, you didn't let me fall that night. You didn't allow it. No. You didn't. Once again, you were there and, without me asking you, even though I was so water and you were so oil, you managed to keep me glued to you, recomposed against the loving tapestry that has always been your heart after falling to pieces, breaking me in two and even melting. Because… what kind of water drowns in its own bubbles of tears?""Circular" fanfic in three acts.
Possibility of a sequel (read the notes at the end).25/11/2021

Summary
Vi saw her and knew.
Caitlyn saw Vi...and everything got complicated.One grew up in the South Side, where dreams don't survive.
The other was raised in luxury, where perfection was a cage.They stand together for years, caught in the gravity of what’s never said.
But something has been waiting in the dark — and it's finally reaching for them. And it will change everything.
Will they ever name the light they’ve always kept hidden?
"Vi swallowed thickly, her heartbeat pounding so loud in her temples it drowned out everything else.
It felt like it was pumping molten gold; dense, burning, and unbearably precious.
She was a paradox made flesh. A hurricane of stillness. Chaos flooding in perfect harmony.
How could something so dizzying, so immense, feel so soothing?
How could the tight knot in her throat be the only thing keeping her grounded?
Nothing seemed to exist but the sheer need to answer those damn questions. Two forces crammed into a space too tight not to clash."Completed story. Full arc. Chapter updates daily.

Summary
Vi holds the book up, “Since you don’t like this one, you, uh, got any recommendations for books you like more?”
Her seat neighbor’s smile returns then, her eyes brightening. “Yes, I, uh,” she pauses and bites her lip, her smile still breaking through as her blush deepens. She looks down at the space between their seats as she begins to speak, “I’ll give them to you in exchange for your number.”
The eye contact returns then and Vi feels her face grow red and hot again, it’s probably getting close to the shade of her own hair, but she’s smiling nonetheless. “You got anything to write on?”
--
Caitlyn and Vi are recent college grads living in New York City in the late nineties, they meet by chance and quickly become enamored with each other. But as their relationship develops, cracks begin to show: neither of them are out to their families and they're both struggling with their identities and their hope that they will get the future that they always dreamed of. When these cracks begin to force them apart, they must face the reality that they may never get everything they wanted. And the question of whether their love is worth the sacrifice.

Summary
“It still doesn’t feel real,” Caitlyn said as they walked. “That the worst is over, that we’re standing on the other side.”
A flock of starlings swept free of the cliffs, and they paused to watch them go. Caitlyn adjusted the shawl again, the same wind that kicked the surface of the water into peaks blowing the hair back from her face. Vi’s breath lodged against her ribs, like a hand over her heart.
“Maybe there is no other side,” Vi said. “Maybe it’s all one thing.”
*
Caitlyn's got a house in the country, and Vi's got time.

Summary
“Flōs belle?”
Vi dips her chin, picking at a frayed bit of thread at the hem of her apron.
“Is… is that alright?"
Caitlyn can only manage a sweet, joyful giggle as her thumb traces over the text.
“It’s perfect. You…” She clears her throat. “You’ve done wonderfully.” Another pause as her tongue darts out to wet her lips, now donning a cheeky smirk. “Although, your longhand could use some work.”

Vi is a blacksmith, Caitlyn is a noble's daughter. Their paths were never meant to cross, their fates are not meant to intertwine. If life were fair and easy, that would be the end of the story right there.- Language:
