Ellie tries to comfort Hardy after Ricky Gillespie is arrested, only for him to flinch when she touches him. She finds out that he is extremely touch-starved. She tries to help him. Hurt/comfort, angst, friendship. One-Shot.

Hardy finds Ellie attempting to commit suicide after Joe is acquitted. He stops her before she can go through with it, and they have a heart-to-heart. Hurt/comfort, angst, friendship. One-Shot.

Regarding emotions, Hardy wasn't good with words. He would usually fumble, trip and make a fool of himself. No, he was much better remaining quiet. Hardy navigated silences with looks and glances, packing little bundles of lingering feelings and pouring them into the other's soul. That, he was good at. Or in other words, all the things he could never say to her. (Spoilers for S1&2)

When American Alana Reynolds comes to Broadchurch, Alec Hardy is in for more than he expected. (Warning: Referenced Suicide & Miscarriage)

Ellie has a breakdown after Joe is found innocent of Danny's murder. Hardy helps her through it. Hurt/comfort, friendship, angst. One-Shot.

The case was closed, the murderer imprisoned, Broadchurch safe. This should be the end where they said their farewells and followed their own path. Except, they were led down the path of destruction and they couldn't let go. !DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED 1x08!

Spoilers for S2. Who's the most tactile? It's not who you'd thought. My take on their goodbye from season 2. (Not really my headcanon, but thought it'd be fun to explain the hug situation like that.) OS

"Come on Alec lets go. Fred would love it," her big brown eyes pleaded with him."Fine." he said. The grin that spread across her face made the flashing lights and loud music just a little more bearable. (What if Alec went to the fair with Ellie after all?)

Retelling the story of Broadchurch, but with a mythological twist. That's it. That's the story.

Alec Hardy's family holidayed in Broadchurch every summer starting when he was twelve he and Ellie Barrett form a friendship that last their teen years. Life pulls them apart only to bring them back together almost two decades later when Alec returns to claim the job Ellie was promised and investigate the death of Danny Latimer.

Set about six months after Joe's trial and the solving of the Sandbrook case. Miller and Hardy are working together again both trying to rebuild their lives and their families. Slightly AU but fairly close to cannon.

Post Series 2. Hardy and Ellie get into a huge fight at his house. Ellie storms off, leaving Hardy emotionally vulnerable and extremely upset. Ellie returns a while later to find him in the midst of a suicide attempt. TRIGGER WARNING: Graphic depictions of blood and a suicide attempt. Heavy angst, some hurt/comfort. Language warning. One-Shot.

After Joe is acquitted and the Sandbrook case is wrapped up, Hardy finds Ellie crying on the steps in front of the police station. He invites her to his house and cooks for her. Platonic love confessions. Hurt/comfort, some angst. One-Shot.

Ellie and Alec have gone their separate ways since the end of Joe Miller's trial, and that should be the end of the story. Fate, it seems, has other ideas when Fred Miller disappears and Broadchurch once again bands together to protect its own.

Ellie has lived her entire life pretending that she is nothing more than a perfectly normal human being. But then a town Incarnate goes missing, the noose of an investigation starts to tighten around her neck, and revenge is served cold.

When Ellie Barrett is born, she is perfectly normal.

After the conclusion of Joe Miller's trial Hardy is ready to cut ties and leave Broadchurch. Unfortunately, another violent crime shakes the community and he finds that some ties are too strong to cut forcing him to stay and see the investigation through. Half the bloody town are suspects when the unthinkable happens to someone whom they've all thought about pushing off a cliff.

"I found my dad," Tom Miller said. - It took Hardy a moment to sift through possible answers, because his first reaction – 'What the bloody hell have you been thinking even looking for him, you daft wallaper' – would probably not go over well. (set after s3, so spoilers!)

The rain is pouring and Ellie feels like she's drowning. Somehow she makes it to his door, soaking wet and praying for a lifesaver. Even if is, of all people, Alec Hardy.

This wasn't exactly how he thought it would go. What if Joe wanted revenge. REVIEWS ARE ALWAYS APPRECIATED

She probably hated him, and maybe she should. He reached for her anyway. Alec and Ellie are trapped together in a storm. Slow-burn Alec/Ellie. AU after S1 *COMPLETE*

On the eighth day of their relationship, whatever it is, Ellie has dinner with Alec and Daisy.

It's been three days since Ellie Miller and Alec Hardy went from Miller & Hardy to Ellie & Alec. She quite likes the sound of it; he's on the fence.

As time passes she wonders if he ever happened to her at all. If she had just altered her own memories to make those days seem bearable. To remember something from those years besides her own personal tragedy. When he shows back up in Broadchurch she could kill him.

Every now and then, Ellie Miller lets herself imagine being gloriously, enthusiastically fucked by someone who utterly adores her. This is a short standalone prologue to a much longer case-fic 'Loneliness in F-Flat Minor' which is posted on ao3 under TreacleA.
