Summary
“My lair has been blown up and I need somewhere to stay. You owe me a favor and I’m cashing it in.”
“Um, yeah, sure, if you want,” they said, looking around at the mess. “I mean, are you sure THIS is what you want to spend the favor on? Why not get a nice hotel and use the favor for something you actually need? You did save my life, even if it was an accident.” The sigh that came through was staticky and aggrieved.
“Let’s be honest Morgan, there is very little chance you will ever actually have something I need. We may as well clear the ledger this way. Besides, I hate hotels, the smells and sounds are… not ideal.”
********
It's a love story, you guys, but first we have to get these two to like each other first.

Update- Heed the tags, darlings, here there be dragons.

Summary
"“Oh my God,” Catra said, barely above a whisper. “You’re rich as fuck, aren’t you?”
“Guilty,” Adora said, cringing a little. “Sorry. I thought Glimmer told you.”
“I’m gonna fucking kill her.” Catra shook her head, trying to wipe the stunned expression off her face. “I can’t believe she set me up on a blind date with a goddamn millionaire.”
“Yeah,” Adora said awkwardly. “Oops.”
“It’s—” Catra shook her head. “Okay, Glimmer aside, how would you paying for my tuition even work? I mean, we—we’ve only been on one date, and it’s not even over yet.”
“It’s a crazy idea,” Adora said. “I know. Just—just forget I said anything.”
Maybe it was the buzz of alcohol, or maybe it was the shock of finding out she was on a blind date with a rich person, but Catra couldn’t stop herself from blurting, “Well, I didn’t say no.”
A beat.
Adora blinked, looking up at her. “What?”
Or: Catra is a physics PhD student struggling to balance life, work, and loans. When her friend sets her up on a blind date, she doesn't expect it to be with the most attractive millionaire she's ever seen. They work out an arrangement.

Summary
"For the last four years, Catra’s routine had been the same.
Every day, she woke up just after dawn; left the comfort of her own bed to go prepare food for her, her husband, and whatever guests they might have; and checked the supply of ale in the cellar.
Then, she would make sure all the mugs and glasses were clean. Once people started rolling in, usually just after noon, the bar would be wiped down and the musicians she employed would be setting up. She would make idle conversation with the others and finish cleaning up until the first groups of men looking for a drink showed up with pockets that clinked and jingled with coins, and then the rest of the night would be spent cleaning mugs and pouring ale.
Catra had resigned herself to this life with a sort of detached acceptance.
Then, a Rebellion captain walked into her establishment, and she knew instantly that something was about to change."
or, Captain Adam Fairchild, who harbors a secret that could get him killed, goes in search of a spy to help the Rebellion's cause. He finds it — and much, much more — in a tavern-keeper's wife.

“Why are you here?” Adora asks.
Catra steps in close, gratified when Adora takes a shaky step back and then another, til her back is up against the wall of the gym. “Would you believe that I missed you?”
--
When Adora transfers from Horde Academy to Bright Moon Prep in their final year of high school, she and Catra pretty much stop talking. Until they don't.
