Summary
Ben feels like a real partner in this moment. Holding his dearest love in his arms, defending her honor, knowing she would do the same for him. He can see it so clearly for a few glorious seconds: being a true partner to Leslie. Being there at her side, helping each other through all their troubles. Talking about the future. Calling her “honey” or “babe” or "snugbug" or some pet name that they weren’t together long enough to decide upon.
How Ben and Leslie cope with the time between their breakup and getting back together.

Summary
When she glances back again, he’s drawn even closer to her, enough that she can make out his dark beard and dirty-looking jacket, and Jess’s heart hammers in her chest despite the fact that she’s telling herself maybe I dropped something and he’s trying to give it back to me. People are good just like I told Nick. People are good, people are good, they’re…
When she feels a hand land roughly on her shoulder, Jess knows that this time she’s wrong.

Summary
She could have sworn that earlier this week, Nick looked at her with a hint of That Night’s same dark fire in his eyes. She had asked him to help her with a stubborn bracelet clasp; after he sprung the mechanism, his fingers curled briefly and unnecessarily around her wrist.
“There ya go, Jess,” he said quietly, swallowing once, his eyes on hers, before he let go and left the room.
(She’d be lying if she said she’d forgotten that asking him for help with things turned him on.)
Set in 4x22, “Clean Break," a year after Jess & Nick’s breakup and an hour after their so-much-left-unsaid Sex Mug conversation in his room. Canon divergence ahead. Originally called “Pantyhose” because of a pivotal admission by Nick about what a certain fashion choice by Jess does to him; quickly retitled in reference to an Old 97s song that captures longing and lust perfectly.

Summary
Jess is sitting on the couch, eating ice cream at ten in the morning (Schmidt had literally gagged when he saw her), when Nick comes through the door, looking for all the world like he’s been dragged through hell.
OR- The one where Nick copes. A missing scene, set during "Chicago", just before the gang leaves to Chicago for the funeral. Nick talking through his father's death.

Summary
There’s only three feet of hallway between Nick’s room and Jess’s. So when she takes up with Sam, Nick can hear everything.
He says, “This isn’t upsetting at all.”
He doesn’t mean it.
(Set early in S2, as the sexual tension between Jess and Nick builds — along with his resolve to do something about it. Canon-adjacent, with some liberties taken, timelines shifted, and deviations made. Inspired by the idea at the bottom of this post from @kyra’s Tumblr, found while backreading her genius #newgirlmeta tag.)

Summary
“What I can’t understand,” Schmidt began, having finally passed the hysteria, denial, and concern stages, “is the distribution of it all. New York has wall to wall magnificence and we get Nick?!?”
“Ah, Los Angeles,” Jess sighed. “Not the superhero we wanted, but the superhero we deserve.”
--
Or, Nick Miller gets bit by a spider, drops out of law school, loses his girlfriend, and gains some superpowers. He very occasionally and resentfully saves the day.Bookmarked by HummingbirdMoth

Summary
“Teach me how to be slutty,” Jess begs, half-past drunk on Cece’s signature spiked pink lemonade. She hiccups, giggles, “I want to be hot like you. I want to impress a boy.”
Cece snorts, “Oh, Jessie girl, you can never be as slutty as me,” She swats a quasi-comforting hand at Jess, drunkenly missing her target by a long shot and inelegantly sticking her finger in Jess’s ear, “But hey, babe, we can try. I’m gonna make you so hot, you’ll… never be cold again.”

AU from 6x11 "Raisin's Back." Jess has been preparing for this day - the day when one of her friends/roommates tries to convince her she needs to tell Nick how she truly feels. It's a bad idea, though. A very bad idea. She has a chart prepared to prove it.
