    Summary

    Carla’s still not looking at her, is snatching up her coat and stalking toward the door, and Lisa wants to scream, wants to say— look at me! you’re the only one who can see me! please!— and knows that if Carla will not look at her now, no one ever will.

    I saw a tweet about Lisa finding out Betsy wasn't biologically hers.

    I wish I hadn't.

    Summary

    Carla has had enough, enough of Becky, enough of feeling like an outsider, an interloper, in her own home. Enough of watching the love of her life be pulled closer and closer to the not so dead wife that she can’t seem to see through.

    Little does she know, it’s not just her that she has to think about.

    Summary

    In that small space of heartbeat to heartbeat, they began to rebuild something fragile, not what they were before, but what they might be again.

    While the cobbled street had softened into silence, at No. 6, Lisa and Carla held on, imperfectly but completely, choosing each other over and over again.

    Summary

    I saw a tweet about how a Baby Barlow mention wouldn't have gone amiss after Carla admitting to Lisa that Betsy’s starting to feel like her own kid on Monday.

    Although I'm in camp 'Lisa already knows', I couldn't leave it alone.

    Summary

    “Doesn’t your husband do most of the work?” Carla asks, eyes widening as soon as she realises what she’s said. She scrambles immediately. “Sorry. I meant… Well. Not that women can’t— Oh god. I’m making it worse, aren’t I?”

    “Carla, it’s fine… But there’s no husband. The farm’s mine. I do have a couple of staff who help me out though.”

    “Wow… Must be hard work,” Carla says, blowing out a breath.

    “Why? ‘Cause I’m a woman?”

    Summary

    Carla knows, then, with a certainty so sudden it's almost shocking, that this, this thing, didn't start last month. It didn't randomly spark during the early-October evening when they were loose-lipped, half-tipsy with wine, when the blonde had settled cosily on her shoulder like she belonged there.

    No, it's been smouldering away in the background, building and building, for a long, long time.

    It's been six months in the making.

     

    Or: "Don't get dressed" and everything else.

    Summary

    “I need to feel you, babe,” Carla said, her voice taking on a husky tone as her fingers reached for the buttons on Lisa’s pyjama top. The copper sat up slowly, putting some distance between her buttons and Carla’s searching fingers, but still straddling her hips. She took Carla’s hands and brought them down, away from her top.

    or

    Lisa hasn't let Carla touch her since Craig's funeral. It's time Carla got to the bottom of it.

    Summary

    Aperture is an opening, such as a hole, gap, or slit, or a circular opening in an optical instrument that controls the amount of light passing through it.

    Carla sees that opening and they both start to allow the light in to each other's history.

    As with all my fics, it's dialogue heavy.

    All mistakes my own.

    Summary

    Au: Swarla

    What happens when Lisa and Carla, already raising their ten-year-old daughter, are dreaming of another child—but heartbreak keeps meeting hope? Just as they begin to question the path forward, Lisa discovers abandoned three-year-old twins outside the police station. Bringing the children home wasn’t part of the plan—but love rarely is. As trauma, trust, and tender moments unfold under one roof, each family member must navigate a new kind of normal. It wasn’t what either woman expected, but it became everything they needed.

    Summary

    “The reason I need to heal is because of her. If it weren’t for her brother, I wouldn’t have been shot! If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have been shot — you shot me!”
    Carla couldn’t take another word. She shoved the door open.
    “That’s enough.”
    Both blondes jumped, startled as she stormed in, setting the food down.
    “Don’t you dare blame Lisa. She did what she had to do — to protect us.”

    Summary

    “She’s besotted with us, isn’t she?” Lisa says, amused. “Not that I mind. It’s nice, you know? Kids seeing queer relationships in public and thinking nothing of it.”

    She gestures vaguely between them, “Even if that’s not what this is.”

    OR What if Carla never said, “Don’t get dressed,” and the sapphic yearning continued?
