Diane meets Woody for the first time. Set early Season 4, between "Birth, Death, Love, and Rice" and "Woody Goes Belly Up". Please review, and let me know what you think. Enjoy!

When Diane is left at Cheers while her fiance Sumner Sloan goes to see his ex-wife, Sam can't help but feel sorry for her and makes a bold move to make her feel better. But getting her to cooperate won't be easy. An AU version of the pilot episode "Give Me A Ring Sometime" written for Melinda! *Hugs*

When tragedy strikes Carla's family, Sam and the guys from the bar rally around her.

Sam goes to the graveyard to pay homage to a very special person but it's not Coach. One shot.

At some point in season four, Sam mentions an off-screen conversation with Diane in which they agreed to "keep their distance" - so here's that conversation! Sam drives Diane home from the convent. They discuss flying nuns, among other things.

Sam ends up taking a walk around the house he owned with Diane, and running into some things he didn't really want to find. Multi-chapter. Takes place 2 or 3 years after the finale. Reviews are lovely!

A man walks into a bar...and befriends a certain waitress. And lending her an ear may be just what she needs, in more ways than he can imagine. This is my first Cheers fic: please let me know what you think. Enjoy!

Sam and Diane pay a visit to an old friend (*cough* its Coach *cough*) after getting engaged. There is almost-equal amounts of angst/drama and fluff/cuteness. BFEOSAD gets all the credit for story idea! Reviews are lovely.

Feeling blue, I go to Cheers and Sam Malone cheers me up (pun intended).

Sam and Diane reminisce in an empty bar after closing time. Two parts because I am too lazy to finish it right this second. Takes place sometime in season 4. Reviews are lovely.

An extra scene from "Abnormal Psychology", when Diane drags Sam to that Jean-Pierre Rampal concert.

10 drabbles/ficlets/oneshots. Some little things you might not have known about Sam and Diane's relationship. Takes place throughout the series. Some very slight AU...terrible summary but please read!

a scene from near the end of Diane's "flesh binge", because who can resist the temptation to write about drunk, batshit crazy Diane! Not me!

This one's for MagnetAndSteel, who is awesome and has given me like ten billion fic ideas. Diane calls Sam while in Europe with Frasier. Set at some point between "The Belles of St. Clete's" and "Rescue Me."

This is another one I'm not totally sure I like, but what the hell, you guys are pretty nice to me regardless of whatever I manage to spew out. Here's our wayward hero washed up somewhere in the Caribbean. I know literally nothing about sailing or the geography of the Caribbean, so sorry if anything in here is glaringly implausible!

Sam and Diane's relationship, from the beginning. Each chapter is an episode tag. Finally updated with chapter 11!

Here's Sam and Carla taking drunk Diane home, because the look on Sam's face when he says "You don't remember?" suggests that there was defffffffinitely something to remember.

Here's another prequel kind of thing, about how Sam met Carla and decided to buy Cheers - and the "sentimental reasons" for which he kept it. Set in 1979. I'm still not sure if I like this, but whatever. Basically when I can't figure out to do with any of my stupid original fiction I just write a ton of Cheers fanfic to distract myself. Carla is hard to write!

I have no idea if this interests anyone but me, but I am endlessly fascinated by all aspects of our doomed protagonist, and that includes his tormented boyhood! So this is set in the summer of 1960, Sam is 12. He goes to visit his mother in a treatment center because in my headcanon she's an alcoholic. He and Derek talk about their parents and other things. I dunno.

a sequel to The Key of Love by Iloveromance. After kissing Woody's cousin Russell, Rebecca comes to realizes that she sees a certain ballplayer/bartender in a different light

A sequel to Iloveromance's Soaring Hearts. Set in the future, Sam gets more than he bargained for at a Red Sox Reunion. Turns out it's a reunion of a completely different sort.

This is basically just headcanon/me making shit up. Which I guess all fanfiction is, but anyway! It's set in 2000. Sam's dad dies and Rebecca accompanies him to the funeral. He sees Derek and meets his nephews. They go to the house he bought with Diane. There's ANGST and INTROSPECTION and fun for the whole family! Assuming your whole family loves angsty Cheers fanfiction.

The absence of Diane annoys Carla but worries Sam who can't help but wonder if her mysterious disappearance from her job at the bar isn't related to a deeper issue. A continuation of sorts of the episode "Fear is my Co-Pilot" written with love and friendship for Carylfan10 *hugs*

After learning that Woody's piano-playing/singing cousin Russell (portrayed by Harry Connick Jr) has a crush on her, Rebecca takes it upon herself to let him down gently and tell him the truth about why a romance between them wouldn't work. But her heart has other ideas. An AU version of the episode "A Diminished Rebecca and a Suspended Cliff"

I own nothing Cheers. When Diane calls Sam and he doesn't answer, she goes to his apartment to check on him. When she finds him, what will she have to do and what state will Sam be in?
