    Summary

    Beatrice knows there will be no objections. That isn’t how this goes. It isn’t some poorly-written CW-esque drama. People don’t object to weddings in real life.

    Or so she thought.

    “Stop!” a new, unfamiliar, voice yells, ringing out through the chapel. “You can’t get married!”

    OR; Ava accidentally objects to Beatrice's wedding. Chaos ensues.

    Summary

    Beatrice finds herself musing not over duty and sacrifice and God, but the truth of angels, if they can be created rather than summoned. If they can take the form of women with overeager mouths and careless limbs and eyes with a depth that beckons - a crooked finger, a spiral staircase - if they can be both human and not, both beautiful and terrifying.

    Ava asks, What do you want, Beatrice?

    (Tell me and I’ll give it to you. Tell me and I’ll build you a home there. Tell me and I’ll rearrange the universe to make it all fit, angels and demons be damned. Tell me it’s me. Me. Me.)

    Summary

    “So… you’re not mad?” The alcohol was already settling, warm in her stomach, and the words were out before she could stop them.

    “Mad?” Ava asked. “Why would I be mad?”

    “I’m…not entirely sure.” Beatrice had run through this conversation a thousand times in her head. Sometimes, the scenario ended with Ava telling her they couldn’t be friends anymore. Sometimes, it ended in a way that would make Beatrice blush to think about. Either way, she never pictured it being this casual.

    “It’s cool.”

    “It’s – it’s ‘cool?’”

    Ava shrugged. “Yeah. I mean, I used to have a ridiculous crush on you too, so I guess we’re even, right?”

    Summary

    “Or,” Ava starts, and her voice is identical to how she’d started their kiss, “We could go back to my place.”

    “The last time a girl brought me home, she kind of broke my heart,” Beatrice whispers, too soft for how the last few minutes has gone, too honest.

    “I wouldn’t,” She says with a sad little smile.
