Summary
A peek into Shelby's thoughts and feelings as she falls in love with Toni.
Companion piece to 'Say It Out Loud'.
Note: I recommend not only reading SIOL first, but having it up in another tab to follow along with as a reference while you read this one. This fic leaves out enough details on a scene-by-scene basis that it'll be confusing otherwise, and is dependent directly on SIOL to help fill in the blanks during scenes that are present in both fics. So please use both, and don't bother with this one if you haven't read the original yet because it will make zero sense as a standalone!

Summary
Toni's always hated Shelby, so when Shelby gets drunk at Fatin's birthday party and throws herself at Toni out of nowhere, it all starts out as some sort of weirdly fucked up power play, because shouting matches with Shelby are going to be so much more satisfying for Toni when they both know that Toni rocked Shelby's world that one time in Fatin's guest bathroom.
It's supposed to be just the one time, until it isn't.
It's supposed to be just sex, until it's not.
(High school AU; everyone lives in Texas, some stuff from canon happens)

Summary
Dani Clayton is six years old when the O’Mara family moves in across the street. The world, for the most part, makes perfect sense in ways that will unravel in two short years. She understands the suburban block on which she’s lived her entire life, the breadth of her father’s hands, the shine of her mother’s eyes. She understands everything.
She is six, and the world makes perfect sense, and the world will make sense forever.
(Or: AU in which Jamie is taken in by the O'Mara family, and Dani grows up wedged between two best friends with dark hair, learning slowly how to fall in love.)
