[being rewritten for the 1938473th time] Sometimes love stories don't start with lingering stares and flirting. Sometimes it starts with the boy being hit over the head with a skateboard by the girl.

Suddenly, Y/n is living a life she'd only read about; summer romances and cotton candy dates. Perhaps this was a new normal she could get used to.

Moving to the city was hard enough for Nya Smith. Having to deal with a new school, new home, and a new family is the least of her problems. She discovers that everyone in the city has secrets: her brother, her foster family, her server at a local restaurant. Even the boy from her school that she's catching feelings for. But can she trust him when he's constantly lying to her? This is a Ninjago AU. Heavy on the Jaya, if you didn't infer that from the description. I don't own any of the characters but gosh darn it, I love writing about them.

One-shot collection of Ninjago's power couple: jaya. Mostly in canon.
