Rating/Warning(s): Mature
Genre: romance, h/c
WIP?: no.
Why This Must Be Read: The shortest description of this fic is "Freddie and Bel in the aftermath of series two." Quite a few fics have tackled post-s2 developments, but this fic has a deft hand for characterization and a Bel/Freddie dynamic that I love.

Rating/Warning(s): pg
Genre: romance
WIP?: no.
Summary: Bel hasn't put on lipstick in a while.
Why This Must Be Read: This is a great Bel POV fic post-s2 that is just stunningly written. It really captures the heartbreak of the way Bel feels about Freddie, but also the sense of comfort he brings her.
