Summary
As the tea steeps, Beatrice sees the steam shift - like a breeze, like a curious sniff. Beatrice pours out two cups but the second stays on the counter (for the best since, just this week alone, Beatrice has had to replace a total of three teacups). She tries not to think too hard about it, turns away slightly so it’s just out of her line of sight. Though, she doesn’t know which is easier to swallow: the sight of the tea that Ava still cannot drink or the emptiness that greets her whenever she turns her head, the knowledge that Ava is back but not here. Not completely, not yet.
or: on touch and waiting and wanting

Summary
Ava clicks her tongue. “Well. I could help.”
Beatrice blinks a couple of times. “Help…?”
“You know.” She grins. “Help.”
It takes Beatrice a full two seconds; it should not be such a surprise that Ava is offering something like that, but, still, it catches her off guard. “Ava. Please lower your voice.”
Ava laughs, but she obeys: when she speaks again, her volume is lower. “I’m being serious! Think about it. I’m good at sex, if I say so myself. You trust me. I’m super hot…”OR: After leaving her religious life and her title of Sister, Beatrice finds peace in routine, tea, and the comfort of a local bar; especially when Ava, the bartender and her new best friend, is working.
When Beatrice confesses she has never had sex and is terrified of being… bad at it, Ava makes an offer: what if they just did it? As a favor. As a learning experience. No feelings involved.
But Beatrice already has a secret crush on Ava. And Ava, it turns out, is about to fall harder.
Virginity is a social construct. Unfortunately, so is pretending not to be in love.Bookmarked by Andersonbutt

Summary
Thank God for her sneakers or else this would have looked more like she was pulling a dead body. Oh fuck. Did it look like she was carrying a dead body? Her pace increased out of pure fear. This literally could not be happening right now. She was done for. Ava’s fans would kill her. They wouldn’t even question her. They would tear her apart limb from limb in some sadistic medieval torture session while chanting along to one of their idol’s songs.

Ava is a global pop sensation, a household name known for her breathtaking vocals, captivating stage presence, and undeniable charisma. She’s at the height of her career, with sold-out world tours, chart-topping hits, and a fanbase that adores her every move. Beatrice, the enigmatic and vulnerable lead singer of The Cruciforms, is her opposite in every way. She doesn’t chase the spotlight, it finds her. As The Cruciforms carve their way into the mainstream with their honest lyrics and genre defying sound, Beatrice remains a mystery, a fragile storm drawing Ava and the world in with every word she sings.
