Perfectly content to live her life without romantic relationships, it's a surprise to her to find feelings bubbling up for Vanya. Vanya grew up in a culture where lesbianism was unimaginable, unacceptable. She always assumed she'd find a husband she could stand, but lately, all she wants is to be close to Poppy. But if these feelings she's getting for Poppy are what people mean when they talk about falling in love...maybe she's not as straight as she thought. Is their friendship turning into something more? Can Poppy and Vanya find a happy ending? Genre: asexual, lesbian Heat level: sweet 26,000 words
