My second DA fic, this time multi-chapter. Starts at S02E03, but goes more AU from there. Finding Bates again leads Anna to make a difficult decision for the both of them, but it may be the only hope for the future they so long for together.

An account of the conversations we didn't see take place in 2X01 and how everybody finds out about Bates and Anna. Lord Grantham, Cora, Mr Carson, Mrs Hughes, and Mary will factor in the story.

Set during 1.3 - John has revealed his limp corrector to Mrs. Hughes and she enlists Anna's help in getting him cleaned up

As Valentine's Day approaches at Downton Abbey, Anna comes up with a plan to make the most of the holiday with John. 4.1 speculation (sort of). Flirty fluff ahead!

Anna & John have enjoyed a few wonderful years happily married before the tides of bliss turn on them once again. They are still madly devoted to one another but soon harsh realities will twist their world around leaving them muddling through sorrow and eventually doubt. What more will life ask them to survive? And will they? This is a work in progress.

A short scene exploring one possibility for S4 based on the recent trailer. Enjoy!

It's Anna's birthday, and John decides that a simple but very special gesture is the best way to show his love. AU before S4.

A one off story spanning just one day in the life of Bates and Anna, in their work at servants at Downton Abbey. Based during series 4, even though it hasn't started yet.

Inspired by the TCA panel with the lovely Downton ladies. John thinks of Valentine's Days past and ponders how he will celebrate the upcoming holiday with Anna, before getting a bit distracted.

The arrival of Mr Pamuk causes a stir both above and below stairs, leading Anna and Mr Bates into a conversation about what makes someone beautiful.

Anna and John Bates have to manage unexpected frustration when a new footman joins the house.

When Anna gets a nasty case of the flu, she is sent to bed. Mr. Bates intends to make everything better. Will he discover wonderful things in the process? Featuring Lady Mary, Mrs. Hughes, O'Brien, Daisy, Mrs. Patmore, Carson, and Dr. Clarkson. The ending is fluffier than Lady Mary's linens. Hope you guys like it! Reviews are always welcome!

Bates has something to Anna. Something that it was meant to be hers. Takes place during their first night in the cottage.

Mr Bates has been released but he and Anna have had little time alone together. Now they have their cottage and it is their first night together. Will it be everything they expected and wished it to be or will the scars of John's imprisonment cause them problems?

After his release from prison Anna tries to become comfortable around her husband again. Something of a sequel to Comfortable. No smut.

I'm sure that first kiss we saw in the series wasn't their REAL first kiss. This is how I hope it happened ;-) - My first prompt -

One-shot. Set during S02E01. Really self-explanatory. Sweet for them, bittersweet for us.

John Bates is Lord of Downton Abbey. He isn't very happy, until a young maid opens his heart.

With her husband in prison Anna Bates is having a hard time coping when her world comes crumbling down. Fortunately she finds some comfort from her past. But there's a catch: Only one person knows about it. This is a fairly dark story about how Anna deals with everything going on around her. Starts in the S2 CS and will continue through(& reinventing) S3. Reviews always appreciated

John fights depression and tries to get his life back on track. Anna's past still torments her and she's forced to take some time away from work to move on. They both end up in a place called Calm Waters. Will they be able to help each other and cure themselves? Modern AU. M-rated from Chapter 9. Nominated for two Highclere Awards, winner of A/B angst.

I had the idea for this story after making a fan video to the song "Love Will Always Win." Basically no matter what obstacles Anna and Bates go through, in the end they will always be together. This is my first attempt at fan fiction in years, so I hope you enjoy it. I plan to update several times a week. Please leave a review.

One-shot that is the definition of Baby Bates fluff. Those who have read "Let Her Be A Child" especially will be happy, I think.

Set during the 2012 Christmas Special. Enjoying a fine picnic with his wife, Mr Bates thinks about the past, the present and what the future might bring.

Post S3 Christmas special. Little oneshot that was so beautiful I couldn't get it out of my head. Please enjoy and REVIEW!

S1, cannon untill the flowershow. What if a storm changed the way home for Anna and John?
