    Summary

    Ruth Clancy is the bane of Stevie’s fucking existence.

     

    She was already reluctant to move into Maureen’s shitty motel on the lower east side, and even more reluctant to transfer to that fancy prep school that was over an hour away on the subway. But they offered her a full ride scholarship, and she needed to get into a good college.

    And from day one, from that first “Are you Stevie Budd? I’m Ruth Clancy, your new student guide,” Stevie has vowed that she is going to best Ruth at literally everything she does.

    At least until she disappears on prom night.

    -

    Or, an I Kissed Shara Wheeler AU.

    Summary

    Shakespeare said, "Journeys end in lovers meeting," which is an extraordinary thought. To think that we all spend our lives on a quest to be loved, and we can rest like the hero victorious once we find it — well, it’s a nice idea, isn’t it? It may even be true... for some people.

    For people like David Rose and Ruth Clancy, however, love has always been a little bit complicated… It hasn’t been freely given or simply found; it’s something that’s always been earned or bought.

    See, because Shakespeare also said that “love is blind,” — and, with that, they can agree.

    They’ve certainly never felt like it looked at them twice.

    OR: After discovering that his parents have secretly funded (ahem, bribed) his way to success, David Rose turns to one of his favorite romantic comedies for comfort... and advice. He ends up swapping homes with a similarly career-minded Canadian named Ruth for a much-needed solo vacation. While Ruth navigates bustling New York City, David settles in a cozy small-town cottage in Nowhere, Ontario. As it turns out, they may have been looking for happiness in all the wrong places all along.

    Summary

    It's easier for Stevie to avoid sharing details about her dating life with Mr. Rose at first, but the endless questions about why she’s single have worn her down enough that by the time December rolls around, she chooses to ask for a favour from her oldest friend.

    ‘Dating’ Twyla is a tiny white lie… It's small, well-calculated. A tiny white lie. One that only has to hold up for a few hours during David and Patrick's holiday party.

    What harm could it do?

    Summary

    "Ruth," Stevie says again, softer this time. She leans forward, squeezing Ruth's hand. "The biggest thing you could do to make things better is to relax. Just... calm down a little, okay? Everything's going to be fine."

    There's a protest on Ruth's lips: she can relax. She has a morning meditation streak that's lasted for over a year. She does level three hot yoga. She's hit her sleep goal for twenty-seven consecutive days. She's good at relaxing.

    She opens her mouth, then closes it when she sees the knowing look on Stevie's face.

    Stevie challenges Ruth to find a hobby that isn't work. It's more work than Ruth anticipated.

    Summary

    At first, it seems too good to be true: four girls, all the same age, all on the shore for the same overlapping dates. Alexis has never known girls like this, has never wanted to spend as much time in their orbit as she does now.
     
    She's drifting in the ocean, riding the waves next to her three friends, when the thought occurs to her as quickly as the tide changes: she could get used to this.

    Alexis, Stevie, Twyla, and Ruth meet at fifteen, during one pivotal summer at the Jersey Shore. What happens during the eight summers that follow?
