Summary
The Swiss National League doesn’t care about the legendary Hollander-Rozanov rivalry. When the MLH can’t negotiate with the Hockey Players’ Union in time to prevent a hockey lockout at the start of the 2015 season, the Zürich Lions jump at the chance to sign both Shane and Ilya to short-term contracts. For four months in Switzerland, they share a team, a line, a house, and a bed.
Then the lockout ends in January, and it’s time to go back. Back to different countries, cities, lives. Beds.
Reentry is harder than expected.

Summary
“Can we give it another go?” I asked sincerely. “I promise, I will make things better. I will try.”
She blinked a few times and glanced around the room. Her eyes were glassy. I could tell she was trying not to cry. “I know you’re with Rex. I don’t care. I just want you back.”
The relief was immediate and visceral. She still wanted me and I still wanted her. We could make things work. This wasn’t the end.

What if Evelyn tried to apologize after that first breakup? A retelling of a brilliant story with a little less heartbreak.

Summary
“It’s a lot easier for me to keep my grip on you when I can actually feel your body.”
The phrase feel your body said in Kara’s voice rattles around in Lena’s head like a pinball machine, but she manages to shrug her sweater off and throw it somewhere behind them before she can second-guess herself. Kara is looking comfortable in a loose white t-shirt, and when she takes Lena by the waist and puts Lena’s hand on her shoulder the texture of it is light and soft.
“Let’s start from square one,” Kara says, so kindly that her next words take a few seconds to register in Lena’s brain. She tightens her grip on Lena’s waist, and says with full confidence:
“Dancing is a lot like sex.”
OR
Against her better judgement Lena agrees to compete on Dancing with the Stars for the PR boost. When her chemistry with her partner Kara gets misconstrued by the press, there’s obviously only one solution.
AKA, a Dancing with the Stars/Fake Dating AU.

Summary
All Lena Luthor wants to do in life is fall in love. She has everything she could ever dream of - heiress to a large fortune, the career she's always wanted, and adoring friends - but love is the one area of her life she's always failed at. Falling in love at the drop of a hat, she finds herself always a little bit heartbroken, with a string of one-night stands, flings, and failed relationships in her wake. It's not for lack of trying but they just never seem to stick.
When she meets a stranger in a bar, she's certain this time she's found the one, but Kara Danvers is strangely immune to her charm and so aloof that Lena can't help but fall head over heels with her and the thrill of trying to sweep her off her feet. But love is rarely simple and things are never as easy as they seem.
