Summary
Vi throws an arm around Caitlyn’s shoulders, pulling her in until their faces are only inches apart. She flashes a suggestive grin, “I wouldn't even think of doing anything less than the best for you, cupcake.”
When Caitlyn pauses, Vi worries for a moment that maybe she was too obvious.
But then Caitlyn chuckles, it's low and inviting, reaching her hand up to cup Vi’s jaw, pulling them even closer. They’re nose to nose and everything about Caitlyn is overwhelming her senses. The melodic sound of her laugh. The gleam in her eyes that makes Vi feel transparent. The tingling sensation in Vi’s jaw that stroking fingers leave in their wake. The smell of old books and the coffee she just drank.
Would she taste like that too?
“Of course, I know how eager you are to please, darling” Caitlyn coos at her. She strokes her thumb lovingly across Vi’s jaw again.
Fuck.

Summary
Vi Lanes and Caitlyn Kiramman shouldn’t belong in the same orbit—but from the moment they meet, the pull between them is impossible to ignore. Friends, confidants, and sometimes more, they navigate desire, boundaries, and the unspoken rules of attraction.
They test the limits of what they can give each other without losing themselves. A friendship that flirts with something deeper becomes a tangled web of longing, secrets, and heat neither can deny.
The question remains: can they finally let go of control and face the truths they’ve been avoiding, or will the space between them always be too wide to cross?

Summary
Vi doesn’t know how it happened. She had too much to drink, she supposes. Everyone kept handing her shots and cans of beer, celebrating the boxing team’s win at yesterday’s match. One moment, she and Caitlyn are arguing in the hallway of a random house party. The next thing she knows, she is roughly shoving Caitlyn into the first room she sees and hiking up her skirt.
Or,
Caitlyn and Vi are enemies with benefits.
kismet; a fated connection, inevitable

Summary
Caitlyn Kiramman is possibly the most repressed woman on earth. She is a celibate lesbian, has a non-existent social life and Oh! She's a priest. When forces outside of her control push Vi - the embodiment of temptation - into her church, she finds herself questioning her entire existence, and with it, her devotion to her faith.

Summary
“Vi?” she blurts. Her heartbeat only thumps harder as the panic sets because how—why was Vi here right now? It was almost like she’d—
She rakes her fingers through her hair, hoping it looks like she wasn’t up to anything but a quiet night on the couch and then before she can think any harder about it, she’s unlocking the deadbolt and then the chain and pulling the door open.
Vi leans cooly against the door jam, one arm resting above her head and the other holding a large, greasy bag of takeout. “Heya, Cupcake,” Vi greets with a wide smile.

Or, hormones are high (i.e. Caitlyn just might let Vi make her Juno).Bookmarked by hopeistrying
