Summary
Beatrice lowered the phone, her frame still as a statue. She stayed like that for a long moment, staring at the darkened screen as the rain splattered against her boots.
"Is everything okay?" Ava asked, her voice small and fragile against the backdrop of the storm.
Beatrice seemed to snap from her distant thoughts, her head jerking slightly as if she’d been physically pulled back from a great height. She nodded, shoving her phone into her pocket with a frantic, desperate haste, as if the device itself were made of burning coal.
"Yes," Beatrice said, though the word was thin and lacked any conviction.
There was a long, suspended moment of silence as they stared at each other in the rain. The water was starting to soak through Ava’s denim, but she didn't care. She was focused on the way Beatrice looked. Fragmented, as if the call had cracked the very foundation of her poise.
"Strict parents?" Ava asked carefully.
Beatrice nodded, her gaze fixed on the grey mist of the world around them.
"Quite, yes," she admitted.

Summary
“Hello, Mrs. Silva. I’m Beatrice Young.” The woman reaches her hand out for a handshake. She has a posh accent, which Ava unfortunately finds very attractive. “At last we meet.”
Oh. Ava blinks a couple of times. Beatrice Young, teacher of Year 3 A, had been e-mailing her for a few days, asking her for her lesson plans so they can synchronize their classes. From the e-mails, with their serious and professional tone, and her lesson plans, extremely meticulous and standardized, Ava could not have imagined that…
Beatrice is very hot.
“It’s Miss Silva.” Ava corrects, cringing a bit. This will be a correction she will have to make multiple times, she sees. “You can call me Ava, though.”OR: After a personal loss and a messy divorce, Ava Silva returns to teaching Year 3 at Sacred Heart of Mary Primary School, where she is excited to use her chaotic and revolutionary methods. Beatrice Young, her more traditional counterpart, only sees it as irresponsibility. When a (surprisingly fun) rivalry over class averages ignites between them, sparks fly (and not just the competitive type).

Summary
“Your car.” Powder said, a thoughtful pout to her face. Her eyebrows raised slightly. “If you make my sister dateable, I’ll help you finish that car.”
Caitlyn stared back at her, ears burning, at the absolutely absurd request. No one, no one on this green earth, could make the infamous disaster that was Powder’s sister dateable. It was absolutely ridiculous to think anyone would want to date the girl who insisted her birth name was Violence no matter how anyone prettied her up. It was a doomed project and she should say as much.
“You got a deal,” she said instead.Teen!Caitvi but make it a 00’s romcom
