#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#lan xichen#jin guangyao#jiang cheng#wei wuxian#qin su#EDIT: Tumblr published an earlier draft with only half the notes I wrote so: late entry on my JGY thoughts.#Unlike the mystic powers of the stockmarket (what the OG meme is referring to) I think this situation calls for more active investigation.#qin su is such a deeply tragic character to me and I really wish we got a bit more from her.#Love everyone who sent me messages about her after the last time she appeared.#I think she needs a spin off of her being a transmigrator SO badly.#MDZS has so many interesting characters - but it sometimes fails to give them the proper room to really develop past a role in the plot.#That's just the consequence of writing a story like MDZS. Not every character in a book *needs* to have a rich inner life and backstory!#To do so would bog down the story and obliterate any notion of pacing. It's just not possible.#Jin Guangyao (nee Meng Yao) is unfortunately not free from this leeway rule. He is the culprit of this murder mystery plot#and thus NEEDS to encapsulate the themes of the book. And personally he's a 7 out of 10 at best on this front (in the AD).#MDZS is about rumours twisting reality and working towards truth. And about how people & situations are rarely ever black & white#JGY has his motivations. He's well written in regards to his actions making sense for his character.#What started as good traits (drive to succeed & improve his image) became twisted over time (do anything to maintain his image)#and it's a good parallel to WWX! He has the same arc (with different traits)! Bonus points for IGY in that regard.#but man....by the time we confront this guy for murder there's not a lot of grey morality. He's just...deep in the hole *he* dug.#There's a beautiful tragedy to it! More on JGY in later comics - this is getting pretty long already!

(Not Beta Read)
You woke the next morning in the same t-shirt you had worn the day before, clinging to your skin from cold sweat. Your pants had been kicked off at some unknown point during the restless night of sleep you had. It was hard to recall the exact time you had eventually passed out on top of your bed.
Your phone was ringing somewhere underneath your pillow, causing your entire head to buzz. You groaned, wiping the sleep from your eyes. Irina’s name flashed on the screen as the caller on the other line. You answered the call, pressing the speaker button before dropping your phone on your chest.
“Hi honey, just wanted to let you know my flight made it into Sacramento.” Irina spoke. The passersby’s in the busy airport nearly muffled her voice. 
You picked up your phone again, looking at the time. How late had you slept in? The digital clock read 11:03 am. 
“Okay, I’m glad you made it safely.” You were certain your aunt could hear the rasp of your morning voice.
Irina hummed on the other line. “Just give me a call if you need anything while I’m away.” 
“Will do, love you.” You replied, clearing your throat before responding. 
“I love you too.” Irina replied before ending the call. 
You stared up at your ceiling for a moment, thinking over the events of last night. 
You couldn’t help but feel horrible for Charlie. Were he and his father close? Was his mother around? Did he have any siblings, relatives he was close with? So many questions seemed to fill your thoughts. Though, you knew they were questions that would more than likely go unanswered. It would be an awful choice, you decided, to bring up this suspected trauma unprompted. 
Maybe you could try to divulge more information from your aunt. Based upon her reaction, she must have been relatively close to his father at some point in time. Remembering back to the somber expression your aunt wore last night, you decided against that idea as well. 
You thought back on the relationship you had with your own father. He was an objectively miserable man. How would you have reacted, though, if you had lost him under the same circumstances? It would have surely still been devastating to some degree. 
You’d keep your newfound information to yourself for the time being. It was the only reasonable option you could think of. You were certain Charlie wouldn’t want you to treat him any differently after finding out about what had happened.
The familiar buzz of your phone’s ringer pulled you momentarily from your running thoughts. You grabbed your phone, pushing yourself up into a sitting position on your bed, your legs crossed closely in front of you. 
A message from an unsaved number appeared on the screen. You recognized it almost immediately as being Charlie’s from the group chat the night before. Only he hadn’t messaged both you and Robbie. It was only sent to you. 
You sucked in a sharp breath as you unlocked your phone. The message read, “Hey, Robbie wanted me to let you know he woke up feeling sick and won’t be able to make it tonight.” 
Your face fell into a frown as you read over the message again, your thumbs hovered over the keyboard as you thought up a response. 
Another message from Charlie arrived moments later. “He said he’d take over any revisions if you and I would still be willing to finish the presentation tonight.”
The corner of your lips twitched up into a half smile. Now that you and Charlie were on seemingly good terms again, there shouldn’t be any issue with just the two of you working on this together. 
Your fingers unknowingly found themselves twisted through your hair as you typed your response. “Works for me. Same time and place?” 
Charlie sent his response almost instantly. “Yeah, sounds good.” 
You had quite a bit of time to spare until 7pm rolled around. You went through your weekend routine as usual, cleaning up as you went throughout the home. By 6pm you had showered and pulled yourself mostly together. As you stood in front of your bathroom mirror, running your fingers through your drying hair, a new thought crept into your mind. You couldn’t help but wonder what it would feel like to run your fingers through Charlie’s mess of hair. 
Your skin burned hot as you dropped your hands at your sides. You couldn’t bring yourself to look back up at your own reflection. 
You couldn’t shake the thought as you made your way into the kitchen downstairs. You stared blankly into the pantry, your thoughts elsewhere. 
Of course, you had always believed there was something charming about Charlie’s character. He was objectively good looking, at least you had thought so. But, thinking back on those few moments you shared alone with him on the porch the night before, there was just something- something about him was strikingly beautiful. 
You bit at your lip, squinting your eyes as you pulled your thoughts together. You reminded yourself that the last thing you wanted to do at the moment was become wrapped up in unrequited crushes and feelings similar to the sort. It was just easier on your own. You had come to this conclusion years ago. It was understandably difficult to trust others, impossible to let anybody in. 
Just as you were about to shut the pantry door, your eyes caught a glint in the back of the pantry, just behind a bag of sugar. You reached forward, grabbing the bottle in your hands. 
You turned over a bottle of red wine, scanning the label quickly. 
You hummed to yourself, setting the bottle on the kitchen counter. You stared it down for a moment, tapping your foot against the hardwood flooring. 
You had no clue how long it had been stuffed away back there. Surely your aunt wouldn’t miss it too terribly. You glanced up at the clock above the stove which read 6:44pm. A small glass wouldn’t hurt anything, just something to dispel your faltering nerve. 
You dug through the kitchen drawers, searching for a bottle opener. Just as you popped the cork, a knock at the front door rang through the home. ‘Shit.’ You steadied yourself, nearly knocking the bottle off the counter. 
You thought you would have had at least a few more minutes to yourself. You quickly made your way to the front door, taking a deep breath before turning the handle. 
Charlie stood in front of you. One hand buried in his front pocket, the other holding the strap of his backpack over his shoulder. You held the frame of the door, following his line of sight to your bare legs. You felt your face grow hot. You hadn’t realized just how much of your oversized t-shirt covered the small shorts you wore underneath.
You quickly pulled your t-shirt up, holding it against your stomach. “Shorts, promise.” God, why were you acting like this? 
Charlie swallowed, looking up to meet your eyes. “Yeah, right.” There was a moment of quiet passed between the two of you. Charlie’s eyes drifted just past you into the entryway.
“Oh, right. Come in.” You pushed the door open further for him. He followed you inside, stepping beside you as you locked the door behind him. 
He turned to head towards the living room. Without giving it much thought, you interjected. “We can go up to my room.” You motioned up the stairs, watching as Charlie stopped in his tracks.
“Your room? Your aunt won’t mind?” He asked, raising an eyebrow as he kicked his shoes off.
“Oh no, she wouldn’t mind. She’s out of town this weekend, anyway.” You replied.
Charlie froze for a moment, looking up the stairs past you. He met your eyes again before responding. “Cool, yeah. Your room sounds great.”  
You smile down at him, leading him up the staircase. 
“Well, this is it,” you shrugged. “Just put your stuff anywhere you’d like.” You finished, motioning around the room. 
You picked your bag off the ground and climbed into your bed, moving close to the wall. Charlie placed his stuff on the desk beside your bed before dropping himself into the adjoining chair. You began pulling out your things, watching as he intently did the same. He seemed so incredibly focused on the things in front of him. Neither of you spoke. 
As you opened your laptop to access the shared group presentation, Charlie spoke up.
“Okay, I actually went ahead and got everything finished up earlier today.” Your breath got stuck in your chest as you met his eyes. “I figured we could just work on any revisions together.” You could tell from just below your line of sight that he was nervously messing with the corner of a piece of his notebook paper. 
“Oh,” you weren’t sure what to say. “Well, thank you. You totally didn’t have to-”
“No, I know. I wanted to.” Charlie interrupted. 
You nodded, sucking in your bottom lip. You scanned through the presentation. It really had been finished. It must have taken him hours. 
There was an uncomfortable silence, making the air thick and heavy around you. You wished you could think of something else to say. An image of the opened bottle of red wine in the kitchen flashed in your mind. 
“Would you like something to drink?” You asked so softly, you couldn’t have been certain you had actually asked it aloud. 
Charlie’s eyes snapped up to meet you. Relief almost played itself across his expression. “Yes, please. If it’s not any trouble.” He rubbed his palms flat against the denim against his thighs. 
You shot up, crawling out of bed. “Not at all.” You gave him your most reassuring smile. 
You rushed downstairs, throwing open the cabinet where you knew Irina kept her best glasses. You grabbed two by the stem and held the bottle in the other hand. 
You made your way carefully up the stairs, stopping in the doorway of your bedroom. 
Charlie peered behind himself, eyes falling to the bottle in your hand. 
“Oh,” he began, “I didn’t realize…” 
You suddenly felt incredibly stupid. Did he even drink? 
“I’m sorry, I should’ve clarified. I can go and grab some water or something-” You began turning on your heel. 
Charlie was quick to rise to his feet. “No, no, this is great.” He carefully took the glasses and bottle from your hands. You inhaled sharply and nodded as his fingers brushed against your own. 
You climbed back into bed, watching him fill each glass, respectively. You couldn’t help but notice the way his hand slightly shook as he passed you your glass. 
You took a long drink, watching him do the same. It felt so warm in your throat. You sighed, sinking further into the bed. Charlie seemed to relax a bit in his spot as well. 
A few minutes passed by in a much more comfortable quietness. 
You couldn’t help but become distracted by the man sitting beside you. He just felt so far away. You wished he’d have sat on the bed next to you instead. Every once in a while, you’d feel him glance over at you as you reread the same passage over and over again, still for some reason, unable to comprehend what it said. 
You peered up from your notes, watching Charlie slide a scribbled over sticky note that sat stuck to the base of your lamp. 
You recognized it immediately, feeling yourself shift awkwardly. It was one of the lists you kept from film club, filled almost entirely with movies that Charlie had mentioned in passing. 
“Are these…?” Charlie asked, eyes widening as he made his way down the list. 
You rolled over onto your stomach, reaching over to pull the list from Charlie’s hands. 
“Mhm,” you nodded. “I’ve almost gotten myself caught up.” You tried your best to conceal the shyness you felt at being found out. 
Your heart picked up quickly as he looked you over. There was something about his expression that felt so heavy, it was an unfamiliar sight. 
“What’s next on your list?” He asked, picking up the glass you had set down and refilling it alongside his own. 
You read over the scratched out mess of your handwriting. “Dawn of the Dead, but the 1978 version. Not the remake, of course.” 
A smirk spread across Charlie’s lip, as if he’d taught you well. He held up your glass to take from him. You took it from him slowly, feigning to be worried about spilling a single drop. By this point, your head was already beginning to feel fuzzy. It was a comfortable warmth. 
You slipped the note into your backpack, trying to focus once again on the presentation in front of you. It was useless. 
Before giving it much thought, you spoke up, “You know, I’ve already rented it.” 
Robbie could manage the revisions on his own, right?
“Oh yeah?” Charlie asked, turning in his chair to face you. 
“Yeah,” you began, trying to convince yourself that this next question would actually be a good idea. “Would you want to watch it with me?” 
“Tonight?” Charlie’s hands were back against the top of his thighs. His eyes flashed between you and the T.V. that was mounted above your dresser on the opposite side of your bedroom. 
“If that would be okay with you, I’m honestly not getting much work done over here.” You replied, getting up from the bed. 
Charlie cleared his throat before answering. “Yeah, yeah, that sounds cool.”
You smiled over your shoulder at him as you made your way over the DVD player that sat on top of your dresser. 
You messed with the CD case, popping it open and inserting the disk. You picked up the remote, waiting until the title screen flashed on the T.V. above you. You noticed the top drawer of the dresser was pulled halfway open; you slid it closed, scolding yourself. It contained the clothing you’d dread any guest seeing. You swore you were always so careful about keeping these things in order.
You flipped your bedroom lights off, dimming the lamp that sat on the desk beside Charlie before finding your place back in bed. 
You pressed play, finishing the last of the wine in your glass, before setting the remote and glass on the desk beside you. 
A few moments passed by uninterrupted. You looked over at Charlie. He was sitting so unbelievably stiff in the chair, it just seemed so uncomfortable. 
“Charlie,” you called out to him. He snapped his eyes to meet your own. “You don’t have to watch the entire movie from my desk.” You half laughed.
He stood quickly, nearly knocking things about your desk. You tried your best to hide your smile as he laid down on top of the mattress; the bed dipped under his weight. 
You both kept a fair amount of distance between each other. The movie was well underway. However, you found yourself becoming increasingly more interested in the uneven way Charlie’s chest rose and fell with each breath than what was happening on the screen.
You wished you could just reach over and touch him, move the hair out of his eyes, trace your finger over the arch of his nose. 
You could barely take notice of the way your vision had fixated on him as your head grew blurred and warm. 
You wished he’d turn and face you, say something. He seemed to be frozen in place, legs and arms held in a way that’d rival a statue. His face was fixated on the T.V., as if he were too nervous to move even an inch. It was so warm. The room felt so warm.
You could barely catch the small glimpses he’d spare towards you from his peripherals. You wish he’d just reach over- your eyes trailed down to his hands resting on his stomach, watching the veins in them roll as his finger flexed and twitched. 
You reached up, placing a hand against your face. Your skin was cold to the touch. Why did everything feel so warm?
Your clothing suddenly felt increasingly more suffocating. You were growing desperate for some form of relief. You pulled at the collar of your shirt. Your shorts felt so tight, nearly restricting. You couldn’t explain why you felt so hot. The t-shirt you had on could almost be a dress, anyway, right? 
You climbed over Charlie, one hand on either side of his chest. You steadied yourself on the ground, your head thoroughly swimming. You tried your very best to focus forward on the movie. You unbuttoned the waist of your shorts, carefully stepping out of them.
You heard a heavy sigh from behind you; the sound made the hair on your skin raise. 
“I’m sorry, moving out of the way. Promise.” You laughed, turning back to face Charlie. 
You slid into the bed, finding your spot in the small space between Charlie and the edge of the mattress. Opting not to try to climb over him again in your current state.
Charlie froze in place beside you as you shifted on to your side, trying to find the most comfortable spot between him and the screen. He was warm, so warm. You had just felt as though you were burning up moments ago, but the thought of him moving any further away made your body ache. His warmth was soothing. 
You could feel Charlie’s uncertainty as he began to shift away from you in the bed, providing you with more space presumably. 
You couldn’t explain why you did what you did next. You reacted without giving it much thought at all. You reached behind you, pulling Charlie’s furthest hand towards you until it rested on top of your hair. 
The new position forced him to shift in bed beside you until he was lying on his side as well. His hand flexed under your touch. You wished you could pull him closer. 
His fingers stretched throughout your hair and you sighed, feeling your back sink closer to his chest. You could nearly feel his heart pounding against you. Your hand fell to rest on your side. 
His other hand shifted, moving into a more comfortable position below your neck. “Is this okay?” He whispered right behind your ear. The feeling of his cool breath sent chills up your spine. You nodded, the words lost from you.
You reached up, tracing the veins wove through his forearm. His fist closed and flexed at your touch. The film, just as the presentation, was now lost on you. 
It was just him beside you. The way he smelt, his fingers carefully sliding through your hair and across your cheek, the unsteady beat of his heart against your back. You found yourself sinking further and further into his arms. A heavy sigh slipped from your lips as he pulled through the mess of your hair. 
At the sound of your voice, Charlie shifted his weight, wrapping his arm under your neck further to pull you around to face him. 
You both seemed surprised at his sudden movement. You were now face to face, just inches apart. The movie murmured faintly off somewhere in the distance. 
Even in the dark, his blue eyes were so incredibly clear. You reached up, brushing the hair that had fallen in front of his face away. His eyes flitted between your own eyes and lips. You had never noticed before just how full his own lips were. His lips were tinted a deep red from the cherry wine you had shared. You couldn’t help but imagine how sweet he’d taste. 
If you’d just move a bit closer- 
Both of his large hands wrapped throughout your hair again in near desperation. 
You returned the gesture, pushing your thigh through the middle of his own. Lips crashed against one another. 
It was unlike anything you had experienced before. This brash kiss fell into a soft rhythm, gentle exploration as you rocked into one another. 
It didn’t take long until the slow movements devolved into a harsh quick pace as you both grew more comfortable in each other’s arms. There was an air of near violence as your tongues wrapped around each other.
You needed more of him, needed to be impossibly closer in any way you could. Sensing this, Charlie wrapped his arms around you, pulling you on top to straddle his waist. 
You sat back, smiling down at him as he unintentionally bucked his hips up closer to you. It was wonderful seeing the state he was in. You knew you were in just about the same shape. 
You were quick to meet his lips again. He held you steadily against himself, continuing to rock himself against you.
Your hands hazily fumbled with the buttons of his shirt. You needed to feel more of his skin against you. The barrier of clothing that separated you from him made you miserable. 
Once the last button was popped, he sat up in bed. Pulling you up with him, his arm clung around your waist. He shrugged the shirt off of himself, throwing it on the ground. You were quick to bring your lips to his again, running your hands up his now bare stomach. He was impossibly toned, felt hard to the touch. 
“Fuck.” He groaned against your lips as your hips rolled against him. You could feel him getting hard below you. A blush crept up your skin. The sound of his voice like this built up an indiscernible feeling inside of you. You wanted to hear him make that sound again. 
His hands were quick to find themselves under your t-shirt, his thumb brushed against the outer lace of your bra. He reached behind you, fumbling with the clasp. You leaned your head against his, smiling softly as he gazed at you in wonder. 
You reached behind yourself, helping him with his work uncertain work. You slid the bra off yourself, throwing it next to Charlie’s discarded shirt. You grabbed the hem of your t-shirt and pulled it swiftly over your head. 
You could hear Charlie’s breath audibly stuck in his throat as his eyes darted wildly across your body. The full weight of this situation nearly hit you at once. You brought your arms shyly across your chest. You had never been in front of a man this way. 
You could barely meet his eyes. He was quick to pull you back in to kiss him. “God, you’re so fucking perfect.” He whispered against you as he kissed your forehead. Your arms melted down to your side as his hands traced the curve of your waist. 
You could feel his hands shake as he cupped your breasts, his fingers softly grazed against your nipples. You sighed, pulling him closer to you. That frenzied feeling returned in full force. 
You needed impossibly more of him. He was quick to act, laying you back down on the bed. He hovered over you, eyes burning into your nearly naked body in front of him. 
His right hand reached down, fumbling with his buckle. You watched intently as his hand slipped underneath the waistband of his boxers to adjust himself. Your eyes fluttered back as you traced your fingers mindlessly over the defined v-line that led further down his hips. He shook at your touch. 
His lips found themselves trailing kisses down your neck and chest. He was so gentle with you. Painfully gentle. Your hands wove through his hair, arching up into him as his pace quickened. He slid further down the bed, wrapping his arms around both of your legs, holding them open to kiss down your thighs. 
You were practically already coming undone below him. He’d come so close to the spot you wanted him to be. Every time he’d pull back away, you’d whine in frustration. He’d hum back against you in response. 
You couldn’t handle the pressure building up inside you anymore. Your right hand traced slowly underneath the lace of your panties. You stopped just before slipping through your folds, looking up to meet Charlie’s eyes. His expression seemed nearly pained, completely desperate. 
“I don’t know- I’ve never…” Charlie could barely get the words out from between his lips. Even in the dim lighting, you could tell he was flustered, embarrassed at his own lack of experience. It was reassuring to you though, you had practically no experience with all of this either. It was sweet, how shy he seemed at that moment. 
“It’s okay. I’ll show you.” You gave him a reassuring smile before carefully intertwining your fingers with his own. He followed suit, hooking his free hand around your panties before sliding them off you. Your desperation for him drowned out any insecurity you could have possibly felt with him above you in that state you were in. 
You brought his fingers against you, sighing into him as he carefully let you guide him in slow circles against your clit. The knot deep inside you only grew as he became increasingly comfortable. Your hands dropped to his shoulders as he became familiar with the pace and direction you wanted. 
His free arm wrapped around your back, gripping your sides with bruising force as you started to writhe below him. His head dipped beside your ear, “Please, please let me taste you.” He practically begged. 
You could only nod, sucking in a sharp breath as his fingers moved faster, losing their rhythm. 
He was quick to shift his weight as he sat up for a moment, pulling off his constricting jeans and socks, leaving him nearly entirely exposed. You groaned at the sight of him in front of you. He was so damningly beautiful. Your vision flitted down to the large impression in his boxers, your eyes widened at the size of him. 
Before you could process this discovery, he was kneeling on the bed in front of you again. One arm snaked around your thigh as you propped yourself on your elbows to watch him make his way through his. 
He kissed just above your clit, eyes looking up at you for approval. 
“Please Charlie,” you urged him on. 
His lips were against your most sensitive spot immediately. You cried out, screwing your eyes shut. Nothing had ever been so perfect as this. He kissed against you a few more times before deciding to explore you with his tongue, “Fuck, it’s so good.” He groaned against you, speaking more to himself than you. 
The vibration of his deepening voice sent shockwaves throughout your body. Your eyes and legs involuntarily worked to screw shut. Charlie acted quick, pushing your thighs back apart with a painful grip. You were sure you’d have his finger prints bruised into your skin the next morning. ‘Good’ you thought to yourself. 
You could tell he was trying his best to emulate the motion you had shown him with your fingers with his tongue. It was maddening, completely perfect. 
“Fuck baby, you’re doing so well.” The words spilled mindlessly out of you. He groaned as you rolled your hips against him. Your eyes trailed down his chest. His right hand found its way inside his boxers. He was palming at himself as if he were in pain. You wanted to be the one to relieve him. 
The sight of him pleasing himself as he worked you over was enough to nearly send you crashing blindly over the edge. You could barely get the next words out of you, “Don’t, don’t touch yourself.” You were trying to keep it all together as he whined against you, following your demands. 
“Fuck Charlie, I’m going to…” you said between broken moans. 
He pulled away for a moment, his entire expression darkened. It could’ve easily been terrifying in any other context, you noted to yourself. The fingers that had just been wrapped around your thigh found themselves quickly against your entrance. Your eyes widened as you connected with his gaze, realizing his intentions. You’d do anything to have him inside of you. 
He kissed your lips. You sucked the taste of yourself off of him, dragging his bottom lip between your teeth. His middle and ring dove forward inside of you. His other hand came up quickly to muffle your screams. 
“Shit, you’re so tight.” His chest shuddered at his own words. A tear rolled down your face as he talked you through it. “So wet for me.” 
His free hand pressed down against your lower stomach. The additional pressure was the last push you needed. Your whole nervous system seemed to snap as his fingers fucked you through your high. You could barely hear his praise as your ears rang out with incredulous force. You were sobbing out his name, vision white and spotted at the blinding pleasure. 
He pulled out of you carefully, slowly letting you come back to yourself for a moment before diving his tongue back against you. 
You writhed up against the footboard. It was too much, too overstimulating. Your hands pulled at his hair to push him away. He grabbed both your wrists with one hand, holding you in place below him. You were babbling, stuck between ‘It’s too much’ and ‘please don’t stop.’ 
Within a matter of moments, you were coming undone again against his face. Your mind was shattered, your body a wreck under his touch. 
He fell back against the headboard, catching his breath as he watched you ride out your high. 
As soon as you could partially catch your breath again, you sat up, watching him shift uncomfortably from his pressing erection. 
It was his turn to be taken care of. You crawled your way up to rest between his thighs. His eyes darted across your face, as if he were trying to read your thoughts.
You couldn’t hide your smile as you leaned into him. You kissed him slowly, licking across his lips. Your lips slowly made their way down his chest as your fingers grazed across the fabric against his cock. He whimpered above you at the pressure. The sound made your stomach clench. You’d give anything to hear it again. 
He slid further down the bed as your lips trailed kisses and shallow bites marks further down his stomach. 
Once you could tell he was in a more comfortable position, you hooked your fingers into the waistline of boxers. He lifted his hips, helping you pull them down his thighs before discarding them on the ground below. 
You sat back on your heels, mouth agape at the sight in front of you. You could do little to hide your shock at the uncovered size of him. 
You glanced up at him, willing yourself to put on a face that feigned at least a hint of experience. He smirked down at you, as if he could tell exactly what thoughts were passing through your mind. 
“You don’t have to…” he muttered, eyes still full of adoration for you. 
Before giving him the opportunity to finish his sentence, you wrapped your fingers against the base of his cock. You could feel him pulse under your touch. His next words were stuck and gone in his chest. 
You held his gaze as your hand carefully twisted its way up to the tip of his cock. You gathered his precum on your fingers and circled it around the length of him. His mouth fell open as his stomach flexed under you. 
“Does that feel good?” You asked softly. 
He bit his lip, nodding his head yes. You were quick to pick up your pace at his approval.  
His hands were desperate, switching between grabbing at the bedsheets and headboard and any of your skin he could get ahold of. Stunning whimpers and pleas spilled out of him as you found the motion and speed he needed. 
You pulled away for a moment, moving yourself further down the bed. You held him still in one hand again as you kissed a trail down from his navel. Your eyes met with his as your lips hovered above the tip of his cock. You gathered spit on the tip of your tongue and let it fall slowly onto him. He cursed a string of expletives, his eyes rolling back into his head as you took him into your mouth. 
You thought carefully over each motion, keeping your teeth back, hollowing out your cheeks. The sensation was entirely new, but the way he began to convulse below you let you know you were doing something right. You wanted nothing more than to make him feel the same way he had made you. 
His hands wrapped almost painfully through your hair as he bucked further and further down your throat. You tried your best to relax, allowing him to take the space he wanted. 
Your throat burned, tears and spit covered your face and chest. You wouldn’t have possibly wanted it any other way. 
You were both becoming increasingly sloppy and starved in your movements. His right hand grabbed at your throat, pulling your face up to meet his eyes. You stilled, letting him fuck your throat as he pleased. It didn’t take long before his movements stilled and stuttered. 
You felt him pulse in your mouth; you were flooded with his release, warmth coated your throat and tongue. The taste and sight above you made your entire body shudder. It was heavenly. You felt truly blessed to be the cause of it all. You could vaguely make out your name being spilled from between his lips.
His chest heaved as you carefully pulled away from him, his cock falling against his stomach. 
You caught his eyes again, making a show to swallow what he had given to you. He pulled you into himself, kissing all over your face until you were laughing in his arms. 
You dropped into the bed beside him, watching him shift his weight and stand. He scanned the room before spotting the bath towel that hung beside your bedroom door. He made quick work of cleaning the two of you up, tracing kisses across you as he did so. 
Your nerves were all shot. Your entire being was exhausted and heavy. 
He dropped the towel next to the discarded pile of clothing that had accumulated on your bedroom floor. Charlie slid back in bed beside you, lifting the disheveled duvet over you both. He pulled you up onto his chest. You sighed as he swept the hair out of your face. 
You were in a complete haze, halfway into a deep sleep. 
“Thank you,” Charlie whispered above you. 
You hummed, reaching up to kiss under his jaw. “Thank you.” You replied, pulling a sore a leg over his thighs, resting your head back down against him.
The movie’s title screen music played on repeat in the background; you couldn’t be the least bit bothered to turn it off.

MORE SG BLACK ARACHNIA BUDDY
I'm stuck on a retelling of the episode where meltdown and black arachnia work together. But it's just meltdown pulling some extremism by essentially kidnappy buddy and saying, "I'm either gonna fix it by turning it full organic or kill it, which ever comes first". And Buddy is desperately on the phone with Optimus like
Op - look, I'm coming, but don't you have Decepticon allies that you can call?!?!
Buddy who knows that if Megatron knew she was in danger, then the island would simply be collateral damage - ...no
HAHAHAHA! I love the little description of the call there!
Here is the unintentional, intentional, after math of the Sentinel and Elita reunion.
Hope you enjoy!
Elita One's Twin sister gets kidnapped by Meltdown

How did Buddy end up here?
Strapped to an experimental table, shock collars adoring her neckcables and servos, too many muti-colored patches one her frame while a disgusting Puddle Man taking notes on a weird looking monitor.
Buddy would have to start from last week to be able to tell you that.
Buddy had stayed on Dinobot Island for the night trying to calm down from that night’s events.
The Dinobots were more than happy to have Buddy over though they were worried about what happened the night before.
Buddy is sitting and patting Swoops head as Snarl keeps guard of the cave entrance.
Grimlock is sitting behind her.
“Buddy ready to talk?”--Grimlock
Buddy continuing to pat Swoop.
“No.”--Buddy
“Why?”--Grimlock
“Because I said so.”--Buddy
“You say that not real answer.”--Grimlock
“Well—”--Buddy
“And that way to—erm—avoid question.”--Grimlock
“… When did you get so smart?”--Buddy
Grimlock puffing chassis a bit in pride.
“Grimlock smartest of Dinobot’s!”--Grimlock
“Yes, you are.”-Buddy
“So… Buddy talk, now?”--Grimlock
“No.”--Buddy
Buddy made sure she went back to the base as soon as the next boat had arrived near the island and beelined straight to the base.
To her surprise and slight hurt, no one had noticed she had gone the night before.
Not even Megatron.
Then again, she couldn’t blame him.
The Elite Guard was still on Earth after all, he had more things to worry about.
After a week, Buddy decided to do something she hadn’t done in a while.
Buddy walking towards the exit of the base.
“And where do you think you’re going at this early in the morning?”--Starscream
Starscream leans against the cave wall with his arms crossed.
“I’m taking a walk outside.”--Buddy
“Don’t you have a med bay to re arrange again?”--Starscream
“I’m taking the day off.”--Starscream
Starscream’s wings slightly perk in question.
“You? Taking a day off? Has Megatron finally grabbed his bearings and asked you then?”--Starscream
“Asked me what?”--Buddy
“Ask you to—”--Starscream
Megatron appears behind him scaring the two.
“Go one Starscream what were you going to say?”--Megatron
Starscream chuckles a bit nervously.
“Ah he isn’t doing any harm now Megatron.”--Buddy
“Yet.”--Starscream
“Shh! Anyway’s I was telling him that I was taking the day off today. I sent the message through the link, and I was going out for a walk—”--Buddy
“You are… taking the day off?”--Megatron
“Yes? Why is it so hard for you two to believe that.”--Buddy
“Lugnut wouldn’t believe you.”--Starscream
“Oh that’s a bit of a stretch—”--Buddy
“Hey Lugnut!”--Starscream
Lugnut stops walking with Blitzwing by his side.
“Why is everyone awake? No one is up by this—”--Buddy
“Buddy says she’s taking the day off.”--Starscream
Random starts laughing hysterically while Lugnut looks confused.
“Buddy…taking the day off?”--Lugnut
“OH, COME ON! I am not that bad! I can take a break when I want to.”--Buddy
All the Decepticon’s having flashback’s of dragging Buddy away from her work or to sleep at a decent time, some getting out with injuries.
“…”—All the Decepticon
“…Look I’m going out today for a walk. No one is going to call me unless someone is dying.”--Buddy
Buddy hops off the ledge and swings away from the group who is left astounded.
“…So this is the future you have in mind Megatron?”--Starscream
“Starscream I swear…”--Megatron
While on the walk someone pinged her on her commlink.
Despite what she had just told the entire team an hour earlier, she still took the call.
Blame the anxiety and bad habits.
It was Prime.
“Hello?”--Buddy
“Prowl where—Buddy?”Optimus
“…Hey Prime…”--Buddy
“Wait don’t hang up, please!”--Optimus
Buddy pauses a bit.
“Go on…”--Buddy
“How are you?”--Optimus
Buddy lets out a shaky vent.
“As okay as I can be Prime. I take it you didn’t call me on purpose?”--Buddy
“No—I mean—that came out wrong…”--Optimus
“…Hey Optimus… I never got to tell you how sorry—”--Buddy
“No.”--Optimus
“What?”--Buddy
“You are not going to say sorry. You had good intentions that night. It on them now. If we are going to blame anyone it should be me—”--Optimus
“And I’m going to stop you there too.”--Buddy
“Wait no, I’m still stopping you.”--Optimus
“But now I’m stopping you.”--Buddy
“No, I am.”--Optimus
“No, I am!”--Buddy
“No, I am!”--Optimus
Silence.
Both friends on the line end up laughing.
They both knew it was going to be okay.
At least with them.
Sentinel and Elita were still another story.
“Why did you originally call for anyways Prime? You didn’t want to speak to your friendly neighborhood Spider?”—Buddy
“What I—I mean—”--Optimus
“I’m just messing with you Optimus. Tell away.”--Buddy
“I was trying to get a hold of Prowl. So much has been going down on the base. Mainly everyone has been a bit more… chaotic than usual. I was calling because I have a lens Prowl wanted.”--Optimus
“What kind of lens?”--Buddy
“His nature camera lens on Dinobot Island had gotten cracked last week and he has been… a bit moodier without seeing his birds.”--Optimus
“Well Optimus today’s your lucky day. I have the day off and—”--Buddy
“You have the day off? Really?”--Optimus
“Why is everyone surprised about this? I can take breaks.”--Buddy
Optimus having a flashback to the Academy were Elita, Sentinel and him dragging Buddy out of the study room with dents on them all.
“… Right…”--Optimus
“Anyways I can go to the island and fix it myself.”--Buddy
“I don’t want to interrupt—”--Optimus
“You’re not interrupting anything Prime. Anyways it gives me an excuse to go see the boys.”--Buddy
“Thanks Buddy, you’re a life saver.”--Optimus
“You got it Prime.”--Buddy
Now she was on Dinobot Island.
She managed to find the camera, but its lens wasn’t just broken.
It had some sort of … burns…
Buddy needed to inspect this more. Nothing on the island could have done these types of burns. Nothing organic at least.
She grabbed the camera when she heard some familiar pede steps.
Buddy turns to see the Dinobots coming towards her.
Buddy waves hello.
“Hey, guys!”--Buddy
Dinobots running faster.
“Hey, you slow down now…”--Buddy
Dinobots run even faster.
“WAIT, WAIT, WAIT—”--Buddy
Dinobot’s tackle Buddy to the ground.
“Guys…as much as I love you all… I’m not…as durable…as you…”--Buddy
“Dinobot’s get off Buddy who is just lying in a silhouette crater.
“Ow…”--Buddy
Grimlock picks Buddy up with one servo and dusts her off a bit.
“Thank you—Hold on what is that?”--Buddy
Buddy looks at a familiar looking burn on Grimlock’s thigh.
Grimlock shivers a bit as Buddy’s servo comes near the wound.
Buddy turns to see the others have similar burns.
“What happened?”--Buddy
“Dinobots… umm… Me Grimlock…”--Grimlock
“Is something hurting you?”--Buddy
Grimlock shaking his helm.
“…Is someone hurting you?”--Buddy
A hesitant nod from all three.
Buddy got out her med kit to look at the burns while gently petting them.
Buddy asked what happened to them after caring for each burn the best she could with her supplies.
They told Buddy that some puddle man hurt them.
Buddy’s optics harden.
Someone was hurting her friends.
They were going to pay.
Pay dearly.
Buddy finishing up the last injury.
“By any chance, do you remember the last place the ‘Puddle Man” was?”--Buddy
“Yes, it near gorge.”--Grimlock
Buddy nodding her helm slowly.
Grimlock suddenly looked nervous.
“Buddy not going to go see ‘Puddle Man’, right?”--Grimlock
“I just want a talk to the ‘Puddle Man’.”--Buddy
Buddy begins to move forward, but Grimlock quickly blocks her.
“No! Buddy no go! Puddle Man hurt Buddy!”--Grimlock
Snarl and Swoop nod their helms in agreement.
“I’ll be fin—”--Buddy
“No!”--Grimlock
Buddy shoots a web upwards and swings out of the Dinobot circle.
“Sorry guys! But someone’s going to pay for this!”--Buddy
“Buddy!”--Grimlock
Buddy quickly disappears into the bush.
Grimlock turns to Swoop.
“Get Truck bot.”--Grimlock
Swoop nods hurriedly and flies off.
As Buddy swung towards the gorge, something cut off her webs making her tumble to the ground. She slammed her helm on a sharp rock causing her to black out.
That brings us back to the present.
The Puddle Man had introduced himself as Meltdown.
Some wannabe scientist that got himself into a bit of an accident making him look like this, ‘Puddle Man’.
Buddy had tried to get out of the bonds but after a couple volts of electricity and a couple dozen acid burns to the pedes later Buddy decided that it was going to be better to wait it out for an opportunity to show up.
“Let me get this straight. You want to make me fully organic… so you can figure out how to turn yourself back to human? Am I missing anything?”--Buddy
“That sum everything up, yes.”--Meltdown
“Do you take constructive critic?”--Buddy
“…I’ll allow it.”--Meltdown
“That is the dumbest thing I have heard today.”--Buddy
“WHAT?!”--Meltdown
“You’re trying to turn me, someone who isn’t organic by nature, to become fully organic. We both have different biology and not to mention the methods of—”--Buddy
Meltdown cranks the electricity collars on making Buddy scream.
“I’d watch your tone if I were you. If I don’t find out a way to make you fully organic, you’ll be discard like the rest.”--Meltdown
Buddy giving him the stink eye while side eyeing the mismatched bones and fur in the corner.
“You can’t even dispose of your own garbage Meltdown.”--Buddy
“I’m going to enjoy this.”--Meltdown
“Enjoy whaaAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!”--Buddy
The collar sparks with more voltage than before while Meltdown looked down at her with a sadistic smile.
Buddy didn’t know what was more surprising.
The fact that her original frame and organic frame was still intact from the electricity and burns or the fact that Meltdown had to leave his lab to use the bathroom.
Buddy wasn’t going to push it any further.
She managed to get a hold on the com link that was still in her audial and pressed on it.
“Optimus—”--Buddy
“Buddy where are you!?”--Optimus
Buddy wincing a bit at the volume.
“Shush! Prime, you’re going to get me caught.”--Buddy
“Caught?! Caught by who?”--Optimus
“You familiar with ‘Meltdown’?”--Buddy
Optimus paling on the other end of the line.
“Yes.”--Optimus
“I’m in some lab of his and I can’t exactly get out.”--Buddy
“I’m already on my way.”--Optimus
“That’s—urgh—fast.”--Buddy
“One of the Dinobots came and asked for me. We’re half way to the Island now.”--Optimus
“Oh, thank the Allspark.”--Buddy
“Did he hurt you?”--Optimus
“…Do you really want that answer?”--Buddy
“Buddy…”--Optimus
“I’m just trying not to look at them and get nervous.”--Buddy
“We’re almost to the shore.”--Optimus
“Good.”--Buddy
“Buddy, have you tried contacting your… team?”--Optimus
Buddy already having the vision of the island engulfed in flames.
“…No, I haven’t but there’s a good reason—”--Buddy
Toilet flushes.
“Prime I have to go! Find Me Prime!”--Buddy
Buddy releases her commlink silently tensing when Meltdown comes in.
“Shall we continue?”--Meltdown
Now all she had to do was stall Meltdown until Prime came.
Meltdown came back and began fiddling around with some of Buddy’s buttons near her helm.
To her horror she saw him press the mainlink to the Decepticon base, the one that would radio into the main computer.
While he was prodding around a few drops of acid fell on her.
She screamed as the acid met her chassis.
Buddy heard someone in her audial talking to her, but she couldn’t quite put her digit on it.
Mentally and physically.
Meltdown had somehow managed to figure out the link was something important and decided to play around with it.
He smeared more acid on her chassis.
She wailed in agony.
There was a bunch of noise in her audial now, but it eventually faded away as she blacked out from the pain.
When Buddy woke up again into was slow and painful.
Her optics were hazy and unfocussed, mainly seeing giant blobs.
She tried focusing on her senses first before dealing with everything else.
Buddy’s back was still on the table, but the patches were gone and so were the collar around her neck and servos.
Speaking of servos, something or someone was holding onto one of them with a death grip.
Strange enough, the touch felt familiar, nostalgic even.
Buddy tried focusing her vision on what was holding her servo and nearly had a spark attack right there.
It was Elita.
Okay this was surely a dream or Meltdown had failed to make her completely organic and this was her mind making a scenario to ease her into death.
She finally had enough consciousness to finally look around the room and was now fully convinced she was dreaming.
Next to Elita who was looking sadly at their intertwined servos was Optimus and Sentinel with Ratchet.
The three mechs seemed to also be looking across the room to…
Oh, Primus, why were they doing here?!
And how where the Bots not dead!?
On the other side of the room was Megatron with Blitzwing and Starscream glaring at the other Autobots.
Buddy gave Elita’s servo a squeeze making her snap up to look at Buddy smiling weakly.
Buddy gives Elita’s servo a bit of a squeeze.
Elita’s helm snaps up to see Buddy smiling weakly at her with barely opened optics.
“What’s with the look? Someone died?”--Buddy
Elita practically launches herself onto Buddy, hugging and crying on her neckcables.
Everyone else in the room finally understood that Buddy was awake now and tried to reach for Buddy.
Buddy gives them each a smile before motioning the door.
Motioning for privacy.
Her team was hesitant to leave, but eventually followed the Autobot’s out.
Elita finally released Buddy.
“Buddy, Buddy I’m so sorry—hic—I’m so sorry!”--Elita
“It’s okay Elita—”--Buddy
“No, it’s not! Look what happened to you! You nearly died here and…and--”--Elita
Buddy slowly takes her twins servo in her own.
“Things…things happen Lita…”--Buddy
Buddy pauses waiting to hear Elita tell her not to call her that.
She doesn’t.
“Somethings are out of our control, and we can’t just stick in one place for the rest of our lives. I got turned into a techno organic and made peace with it. This is a part of who I am now, and I accept it. Imagine if I didn’t and was bitter about it? I wouldn’t want to live a life were the only thing I have to look forward is revenge or something.”--Buddy
Elita sniffs a little bit.
“You took my place though. Aren’t you a little bit mad at me? At Optimus? At Sentinel?”--Elita
“I did at first. I wanted to blame everything on you guys and those Spider’s. But you know what Lita? It isn’t any of you guys’ fault. I made my decision back at that cave and I don’t regret it. Not for a nanoclick.”--Buddy
“But—”--Elita
“If I had the option of going back to that moment, I wouldn’t change a thing. I…I love Lita, and nothing’s going to change that.”--Buddy
Elita now fully sobbing on her twin.
Buddy starts bawling too as she hugs her back.
“Hey, I know this is off topic, but what happened to Meltdown?”--Buddy
Elita scowls.
“He got away. But don’t worry, I don’t thinks he’s coming anywhere near you ever again.”--Elita
“If you say so…”--Buddy
Buddy clung to Elita’s side as they both made their way out of the lab.
Buddy found it a bit funny how everyone was outside on their respected sides some silently glaring more than others.
Turns out the Dinobot’s had taken liberties to act as mediators between the two factions if things got out of hand.
Buddy waving at the group.
“Hi!”--Buddy
Dinobot’s waving back happily.
Buddy’s view was suddenly blocked by Megatron’s chassis.
“Are you all, right? Why are you even standing? Did the doctor do a good job? You shouldn’t be standing.”--Megatron
Megatron scoops Buddy up into his arms and walks back to his side.
Optimus looks relieved.
Sentinel too but tries to hide it in front of the Decepticon’s.
Ratchet also visibly relaxes a bit.
Starscream and Blitzwing stand close to Megatron nearly shielding Buddy from the other’s view.
“If there are any further complications—”--Ratchet
“I know where to find you field tech.”--Megatron
Megatron nods at the Autobot’s before taking off with Buddy in his arms with Starscream and Blitzwing following suite.
“Do you think she’ll be all right?”--Sentinel
“Of course she is. Don’t count her out of anything kids.”--Ratchet
Ratchet’s right. We’ll see her again, maybe not soon, but we will eventually.”--Elita
Optimus smiles at his friends.
“Let’s go home.”--Optimus
Meanwhile at the Decepticon base.
Megatron walks straight to Buddy’s room closing the door behind him.
He gently places Buddy down on the berth.
He sits down next to her.
“…Megatron—”--Buddy
“Not now.”--Megatron
He gently grabs her smaller servo in his.
Buddy slightly blushes at the action.
“…We can talk about this later.”--Buddy
“Yes, but now…”--Megatron
His servo lets go of her’s and pulls her into a side hug mindful of the injuries.
Buddy leans into his frame venting softly as exhaustion starts taking a toll.
“Buddy… there is something I need to tell you. I—”--Megatron
Megatron looks down to see Buddy fast asleep.
He chuckles a bit and gently places her on the berth.
His servo lingers on her’s before letting go.
He goes to the door and quietly walks out.

Sentient Chapter 3: Disdain
Long time no see! Happy New years Everyone.
It took me so long to figure out the ending to this Chapter, but I figured it out.
Sentient is supposed to be a wacky Self Aware! AU type of series, so I try to maintain that sillyness.
New Team comp: Scara. Nahida, Kokomi and Kuki Reminder: Masha is the name I chose for Scara
I was rushing to just get this out, so expect me to re edit or take some things out ^^.
3k+ (tried to make it long, to make up for my abscence and how long it's gonna take for me to think up the next chapter.
Hope you enjoy :3
Disdain- a feeling of contempt for someone or something regarded as unworthy or inferior.
A/N: After this chapter, I will not be tagging you individually for this series.
If you want to be tagged, follow here
First Chapter is Here
“Your eyes are like topaz, pure, precious, and lovely; I like them.”
4.0 came with the release of a blonde magician who has been stealing everyone’s hearts by the name of Lyney.
He works as a magician part-time alongside his assistant and twin sister Lynette. After taking a break for months from playing Genshin, you heard a small commercial of him and his sister advertised on the new region trailer.
“Ladies and gentlemen, she did it. This has been Lyney and Lynette’s magic show!” His cheerful voice reverberated from the speaker on your phone.
You could not help but smile at the way his art looked and how much energy he gave off.
He resembled Joker from the Black Butler Circus arc and Kagamine Len, two of your favorite characters.
The trailer continues as you see the Fatui harbinger of this new region, who also piques your interest. The black and white hair and attitude resembling Cruella Devil.
‘What role would she play as someone who is connected to Lyney and Lynette?’
‘Also,what is the Traveler going to get into this time?’
You ponder, not expecting the answer that would soon come with that.
Not too soon after the trailer dropped, the chapter and the Archon Quest came out. You boot up the game on your PlayStation, only to groan at seeing the update sign. You press X as you wait for it to download.
A ping comes from your phone as you pick it up.
Them: Hey.
You glance at the number for a moment before locking the phone once more. You shake of the negative emotion, as your head excitedly, grabbing one of your anime plushies.
“I’m so excited.” You cheer, grabbing one of the plush toys in your room and dancing around. Her aroma catches your nostrils as you spin with the plushie. You lean into the plush unconsciously.
“Hey, F/N, what are you excited about?” Your smile drops as you put the plushie back down. Grabbing your phone, you check the text again before going through the other contacts.
Mom
Dad
.

Work

Friend’s Name
You stop as you get to a name that’s not on the top. “Aisha?” You click the name while going through the text messages. The name clicks as you scroll up further.
It has been a while since you last saw her, huh? You click on a message and send her a small text.
“Hey.” Sent at 17:30
You turn off your phone as your PlayStation dings and loads the game. A picture of Scara and his team from your photos is shown as the advertisement image. Scara glares at Childe, who winks at the camera, gripping the shorter man’s hat. Nahida, Kazuha, and Kuki remain in the background, watching the situation ahead.
The image remains as the promotional photo, unlike last time, as the screen goes black.
The game loads through quickly as the door appears. You click it as the game loads through.
“Welcome back (player name)!” Green text floats on screen as the background changes to Vanessa’s tree.
‘Wait, where were you last time?’
Your answer gets solved as the camera moves up the tree, stopping just directly in front of a certain bard. He stops playing the game theme as the camera zooms in on him.
His teal eyes met yours as a small smile grew on his face.
“Hey (player name)!” He gives you a small wave, greeting you. Small wind chimes sound from the speakers of your television.
The anemo archon was one of your characters that you traveled with, but only rarely. You were too busy trying to build your beloved Masha so that he could one-shot enemies.
“Hello Venny.” A small smile appears on his face.
“Where have you been? We’ve all been worried about you.”
“I was busy with work and home stuff.” He nods in an understanding manner.
“You know that’s interesting, because I heard from a small pigeon that you had free time as of recently.” You froze in place, causing his cheerful expression to grow.
“I was so worried about you. I think Masha was as well.” Your ears perk up upon hearing the blue-haired man’s name.
“Yeah, he sometimes stands by the entrance of Mondstadt city, just waiting.” He lets out a small laugh as he dodges an incoming sandal thrown.
You hear Masha’s flying sound as he comes into the cut scene from the bottom of the screen. The scene looked similar to people in a co-op jumping in the background of a cut scene.
“Shut up, bard.” He becomes part of the cutscene before turning to you.
“Come on, let’s go.” The camera pans towards him as he leads the way.
After teleporting, you both make it to the cliff that overlooks Fontaine.
The city sits almost floating from the distance that you both stood. You could hear the music change as you both grew closer.
“The fishes!’’ You stop along the way looking at the design changes in the new region.
He rolls his eyes at your excitement, continuing forward.
“Hey!” He ignores you as he flies forward, reaching the dock in the area. You could see an albino-haired girl, whom you assume is Lynette, standing near the edge of the dock, watching for something.
You were about to approach when, Paimon dragged you both into a scene. She walks over to the girl and begins her dialogue as you watch it play out.
The camera pans back to where the traveler is supposed to be; instead, it is Masha. The screen blacks out for a momentarily.
“Ah! When did you get there?” She looks back at the Traveler to see Masha in her place. He raises an eyebrow at her and continues the dialogue that the traveler is supposed to have.
“Hey, Paimon is talking to you!” She stomps her foot in the air. The girl glances at her before explaining herself. Paimon is cut off when a blonde-haired man entered the conversation, calling to the girl.
“I don’t think we’ve had the pleasure of meeting; are you Lynette’s new friends?” He takes his place next to his sister. He glances at Masha and towards the white-haired pixie floating in front of him.
“Thanks for looking after my sister. Oh, allow me to introduce myself. I am Lyney, and this is my sister Lynette.” He paused mid-dialogue at the sound of screaming. He looked around, concerned, before glancing towards where the imaginary camera would be.
“He’s here!’’
He gives a small smile towards your direction further, causing your cheers to gain traction from the others.
Masha sighs. tipping his hat down, trying to pretend you weren’t traveling with him. He waits for a few minutes before continuing the dialogue as Lyney follows his queue, ignoring you as background noise. Before their conversation continues, the archon comes into view.
Everyone claps as she does a small curtsey, going into her speech.
Masha tunes out her speech, resembling that of the girl and that bird illusion he met a long time ago.
His left eye twitches slightly as she takes a long time to get to the point.
“As the Hydro Archon, I Focalors, welcome you to Fontaine.” You clap at her introduction along with the characters.
Compared to the past three archon quests after Venti, it’s been awhile since an archon and their people have welcomed Traveler.
She’s number one on the welcoming committee of Genshin, compared to Amber’s cut scene from the beginning of the game.
“Now if you have no objections, then in the name of the Hydro Archon, I order your arrest.”
“Wait what?”
The scene changes to the teleportation ping as Masha takes you back to Mondstadt.
“How Irritating.” The speech bubble pops up on screen before disappearing.
You tried teleporting back to Fontaine, but every time you click on the teleporter there, it says access denied. You roll your eyes, pulling up the wish menu for Lyney’s banner. At least you could travel with the cute blonde in the meantime.
After 36 pulls, the star turned goldish-red as Lyney appeared on screen. You stare at it before checking his character, before checking the splash art once more.
Going into characters, you click on his hello line.
“This is no mere illusion, tis I, Lyney! The greatest magician in all Teyvat!”
“Oh, it’s you again. You left abruptly last time, and Lady Furina was so in shock that she left immediately, thinking that you went further into the city.” The message ended after that, as he moves in his voice over menu tipping his hat towards you with a wink.
You change back to Masha, who goes back to his idle position as you click back to him.
It’s time to go farming, it seems.
Atk, Pyro Dmg goblet, Crit Dmg.
It was easier to build Lyney than Masha. Masha’s artifacts took months to farm, whereas Lyney’s required only a few weeks.
His Maurchausse Hunter set was more difficult to get items from, so in the meantime, you give him Masha’s flower and feather. After farming for him for a month, he was at a high enough level to rival Masha as the strongest character.
“Good morning, Lyney.”
You remove the mismatched artifacts from him, fixing his build. 2 pc Shim and 2 pc Wanderer’s Trope, and an off-piece crit DMG circlet.
You let out a small hum, looking over the stats of his shim flower and feather comparing it to Masha’s. Masha’s has more crit DMG, which Lyney needs. Shrugging, you swap Masha’s flower and feather for Lyney’s.
As you exit the main screen, Masha is standing there, glaring up at you.
“Give it back.”
“Huh?”
“Did you think I didn’t notice my power draining?” He pulls up the menu to his character screen. He stops mid-idle to turn to the stats.
“My atk and crit went down.” He points out the lower-crit DMG. Instead of being 60/130, it went down to 100, which is fine, but he doesn’t crit as often at 100.
“I was doing some tasks for the radish when I saw my DMG going down.” You notice a bruise on his arm. It looked fresh, tainting his pale skin.
“Sorry. I was testing Lyney’s dmg.” He sighs, pulling up the menu once more.
“Ever since you got the Knave’s brat, he’s been taking my shit.”
“Give him something else.” He glares off screen like Lyney would pop up around the corner.
You wouldn’t be surprised at this point if he did do that.
The characters have begun to gain more power over the game. Mainly Wanderer, who would take you out of bounds areas.
The paimon menu pops up again, changing to the character menu and Lyney. They switch back to his original set, as the menu exits back to the game.
“Don’t move them again.” He sighs, getting back into his idle pose. His fake smile rises on his face as he stares ahead blankly.
You stared him down for a good minute, waiting for him to say something else. His eyes only glance at you and back ahead, giving the indication for you to move.
“Okay, let’s travel shall we?”
The abyss lights up as the scenery changes from the out-of-bounds room to the nameless crescent island. Moving forward, Masha presses the button as you enter the menu.
“Plunging dmg and normal atk damage increased.”
Scara. Nahida, Kokomi, and Kuki enter the room as the challenge begins. A group of enemies from Nahida’s nation popped up surrounding the group. Some are working quickly to attack you while you are charged. Pulling out Nahida, she uses her E and does her dance as they fade as quickly as they spawned.
Things began to tighten as more enemies were dropped in.
“Everybody hold hands.” Nahida points her fingers towards the enemies as they disappear in a cloud.
Mitachurrls approach as Nahida dodges on time. Sprinting around, things are thrown at her. She pauses, pulling out her chain, when she gets hit head-on.
“Owchie.” She mutters, rubbing her head. She does her little dance as Dendro hits the mitachurrls, burning them quickly. Darkness surrounds the room as she teleports to the waiting room.
“Is it our turn next?”
Lyney asks as he and his team prepare for the next session. The abyss music plays softly in the background, like elevator music.
When off screen, the characters remain in a small lobby in between matches to get themselves together.
“Yes, (player name) is waiting for you.” Lyney and his crew gather their things as they make their way to the exit she came from.
“Is everyone prepared?” Lyney asks before opening the door. “His team checked before nodding.
“Let’s go.”
The door closed as they were teleported into the next match. A small monitor above the lobby played as the match began.
“It looks a bit rough this time.” Masha comments as they watch Bennett flinging around. A mitachurrl is flung back from Lyney’s burst in retaliation.
The battle continues smoothly for everyone on the team except Lyney. Bennett successfully kills his enemies, continuing on to the new ones. Thoma, providing shields for his teammates.
“It’s Showtime!” Lyney transformed himself as he hit the enemy, doing a small 25k at best. They advance through the last few as the stage changes.
Kokomi stands, approaching them with a small medical kit. Being in the spiral abyss prevented her from healing the majority of their injuries.
Smaller ones, however, could be wrapped up or healed with bandages.
Kokomi, Nahida, and Thoma helped the injured teammates while Masha remains seated.
A small menu pops up in front of Lyney as he uses his good hand to navigate through it. He checks his artifacts and finds two pieces missing from his set.
“Masha, did you happen to take my artifacts?” He smiles at the raven-haired man with a feral grin.
“No, I have all my artifacts here.” He displays the slots where the artifacts he is wearing are. Lyney clicks on the flower and feather.
“Last time I checked, our dear (player name) gave those to me.” He clicks on the feather and flower and exchanges them for his own. He has them returned to his missing slots as his DMG goes back up to 230 crit DMG.
“You need to get your own.” He takes those back artifacts as the next floor loads out. Him and his team exit into the domain.
“Break a leg.”
“Ah!” Kokomi Is hit repeatdly by the hilichurrls that spawn in the room. As you got to dodge it, your phone rings distracting you.
You see your Friend’s name pop up on the screen as Kokomi eventually dies. The next character spawns in moving the controller to dodge and aim. You look back to see Masha with a pissed off look dodging the characters and killing them all.
As the next wave pops in, you take control dodging clumsily at the last moment causing him major damage.
“You can’t aim for shit. Give me this!” He takes control again not letting them land a single hit on him.
The floor changes again as Lyney and his team get you to the last floor of the current level. Not distracted by her, the gameplay goes smoothly as the characters crit and do major damage. Lyney jumps out of his hat as the stage changes.
Masha loads in with half damage. You got to control him, when nothing happens. He glances back at you with an annoyed look.
“Don’t even try it.”
He presses okay on the menu as he begins the trial. You watch as he quickly clears through the damage of the current boss for the spiral abyss. He switches control to his other team mates not even allowing you to control.
Your phone dings again with a small hum.
Missed Calls (10) from Friend’s Name. You sigh, getting up and exiting the room.
10-3 Cleared
Next Level?
*’Hey.’*
Friend name is Tying.
*’Hey (*Friend).*’
*’How are you?*’
Read @8:36
Name is Typing.
*’Well I guess.*’
You weren’t exactly sure what she wants, considering last time she broke off your friendship.
*’Do you have time right now?*’
You glance back towards Lyney’s team who were glancing at you. They stood attentive at the domain symbol waiting for you to get off the phone.
*’Yeah, I can drive over to see you.*’
*’Great, meet me at the café near the library.”
You exit the room to change clothes. You turn on soothing music to calm your nerves as you change. You grab an outfit that resembled something she would wear, and tie your hair up in a cute ponytail.
“(Player name)?” You whip your head around looking for the person who called you. Checking every corner, you calm down and continue getting dressed.
“(Player name) can you hear me?” You hear the voice again. You slowly and sees Nahida’s face on the screen of your phone.
“This is new.” She lets out a small laugh as your other characters came into view, in a storage room you assumed.
“It’s a rest room that we stay in, between matches.” She corrects you.
“Lyney and his team left the Abyss. They said that you were unresponsive.” Your heart squeezed as a small smile lifted on your lips.
“That’s sweet of you Nahida. I have to go somewhere for a while.” She pauses listening before nodding.
“Alright then, we’ll return home.” You could hear talking in the background as they move out the door. Whatever device Nahida was holding was moving as she walked.
You saw the room turn into the bright sky of Teyvat. You see the abyssal portal as they exit the domain. Nahida presses on something that you couldn’t see, as the teleportation screen was shown.
Your device turns back to the regular wallpaper as the game exits itself. You decide to head out to see what she wanted to get out the way.
The restaurant was an expensive one, that was a bit out of your budget. The interior seemed like it was a place usually occupied by influencers or other bougie people.
“Reservation for (Name)?” The waitress nods leading you to the table in the back where your Friend is.
“You’re here!” She cheers, waving towards you. You grimace taking a seat across from her. She looks towards the man in the back not even sparing you a glance.
“So what did you want to talk about?” She turns towards you excited.
“Isn’t that man attractive?” You glance at the man with a blank stare.
“I guess?” She looks at you blankly, muttering something rude under her breath.
“So, what have you been up to?” You listen to her as she tells you her current troubles. You frown hearing that things have been going down hill for her. You pat her on the shoulder and promise her that she can vent to you anytime if it helps.
“What about you?” She remains engaged in your conversation. You smile, hoping that things remain positive like this.
“So there was a new episode of my favorite series that came out the other day.” You pause before continuing. You hesitate to bring uo Genshin, in case she would call you out for being weird.
“So there’s a new episode next week if you want to watch.” You look up only to see her focusing on her phone.
“Hey, did you hear me?” She shushes you, focusing on her task. She gets up approaching the man that she kept glancing at. She has a conversation with you that you can barely hear. They both glance at you, before he lets out a small laugh. They continue talking as he exchanges phone numbers with her before walking off again.
She walks back over with a sad look. “He says he doesn’t like you like that.” You look at her confused expecting her to explain. She continues texting, not even glancing at you.
“Can you come hang with me and my friends next week if you have time?”
You leave money on the table exiting the restaurant. Merting her after that fight you had last time was a terrible idea. You make your way to your car, when the phone pings again.
What more does she want? You glare at your phone as you check your text messages
Aisha:*’ Long time no see, how are you?” 🥰’

Learning to Love Slowly
Jason Todd x Reader All Chapters AO3
40-Batcaves and Dead Robins
“So…Jason, are you bringing your girlfriend to dinner tonight?” Bruce asked suddenly.
At the question, everyone went silent and turned to hear his answer. Jason sneered at him because he hated being put on the spot like that, especially in front of everyone. There was a few moments of silence before he finally decided to say something. 
“I don’t know. I haven’t asked her if she wanted to come,” He said.
Dick, on behalf of his father, rolled the chair from the batcomputer over to his brother’s phone on the table nearby. Despite Jason’s irritation at the invasion of privacy, especially since his password was now obviously compromised, he didn’t make a move to take the phone from him. 
After a few seconds, after the message was sent, there was a ding. There wasn’t too much wondering from the crowd surrounding him about what you said, because as soon as it appeared on the screen Dick read it aloud. 
“Of course, Jaybeans, I’d love to! By the way, do you really think your Pops will let me see the Batcave?” Dick then added on his own commentary after seeing Jason’s face, “Don’t be too upset, Jaybird. It’s the last family dinner before the new year, let’s make it fun!” 
Bruce chuckled in response to his eldest son, only meeting Jason’s angry eyes briefly before quietly surrendering himself to the idea of staying out of it. Taking his phone back while mumbling about how no one there wouldn’t know how to respect boundaries if it hit them in the face, Jason then disappeared upstairs. 
He didn’t mind you coming over—Hell, he wanted you there, but he also hated suddenly springing things like this on you. Jason was about to message explaining what had happened when you replied again. 
Should I wear the dress you like so much?
Okay, maybe he wanted you there a bit more than he initially thought because the thought of you in that pretty little pale pink dress drove him wild. After all, it would be nice to see you after the tough time you had with your exams. 
When you arrived Jason met you at the door with a kiss, and Dick ran out greeting you like a dog after its owner arrived home from a long vacation. He was excited, pulling you in with Jason trailing behind the cave. 
“It’s kind of weird to have someone who’s not, ya know—”
“Wait, wait, wait. Dick,” You laughed. “Let me get my bearings first. I’d like to say hello to Alfred and your Dad before I go invading the most personal of your family’s spaces.”
“But—”
“Dick,” Jason warned. Reluctantly, he let you go.
Bruce and Alfred were thrilled to see you back in their home, saying how long it had been and how much your presence was missed. You felt so welcomed whenever you entered the Wayne Manor as they seemed so happy to have, as they described it, someone normal around for a change. Well, the second normal person. Apparently, Tim had been dating a civilian, too, named Bernard. 
The entire time Dick had been impatiently waiting to show you the Batcave, and, by the time dinner had been served, gave up on showing it to you at all. Jason didn’t care whether or not you saw the cave, and, in fact, preferred the latter. 
There was too much history in the cave, happy and sad, that he felt like he would have to explain. To Jason, the cave was nothing more than a pit of despair and longing that he knew would turn anyone with common sense. 
Forgetting the cave, dinner was great. You seemed more than happy to be there, and Jason was more than pleased, especially seeing you in that dress. The dinner had gone so great that everyone had insisted you stay longer to play some of their games. You joined in with such enthusiasm that Jason already knew you might be stuck at home with him for the night. 
Watching you beat Dick and Stephanie in Mario Kart earned you an extremely special place in the household as one of the greatest players of the game, a title previously owned by Steph. Soon enough, Tim was going around to the whole group gathering money on who would win in the next round, all bets going to you. Unfortunately, just as your luck was up, Stephanie quickly earned back her rightful name. 
You handed over the controller to Jason, “You play now. I’m going to the bathroom.”
“Oh, do you need me to show you…”
“I’m fine, I’ll be right back, honeybee.” With that and a kiss, you were gone. 
Jason watched you go. The first few minutes you were gone he thought about following you, just to make sure you didn’t get lost in the twisted maze of the manor but decided against it. 
It wasn’t until the third round he had played did he start to get worried that you were lost. Excusing himself, Jason got up to go find you. The halls were empty and, for once, quiet. He was worried you had left without saying anything until he had come across Alfred. 
“She’s with Bruce down in the Batcave,” Was all he said before stepping away. 
Jason didn’t know how to feel at that information, especially since he wasn’t there with you. As he made his way to the cave entrance a thousand rushed thoughts were going through his mind. Did you like the cave? What were you thinking? How in the hell did you end up there with Bruce of all people? 
Shaking off his trainwreck of an inner voice, he tipped-toed on the stairs down to where the two of you were. When he got down to the platform he could hear you and Bruce talking, voices echoing clearly. 
“It’s small,” You said. 
Jason, standing back and slightly hiding, could see the two of you standing in front of the glass cases of old suits. The two of you were in front of his, making his heart sink as you stared at it. Even from across the cave it was obvious how fucked the suit was from what had happened with the Joker and that building. There were spots of blood on the yellow and green and black spots from the soot of the explosion. 
All remnants of a dead Robin. 
Bruce chuckled, thoughtfully and somberly. “He was a small kid.”
“You would never guess it now,” You remarked. It was a joke, but the way you said it was like you were thinking out loud. The wheels in your head were turning, and Jason wanted to know what thoughts your head was cranking out. “I—I can’t imagine what it was like for you, Mr. Wayne, as his mentor and a father. I’m sorry.”
Bruce was quiet for a few seconds before finally saying, “Thank you. I regret what happened every day. He was—No, sorry, still is a good boy. ”
“He’s a softie.” You patted Bruce’s arm. “And a good person.”
“I know, and every day I wonder where he got all that from.”
Jason sat there in stunned silence. His heart was thumping in his chest and all he wanted to do was bury his head in your chest while he cried. It had been so long since someone called him, an over six-foot-tall brick house of a man, a boy, much less a good one. 
Suddenly, Bruce changed the subject, “Jason, when did you get down here?”
Jason was sure Bruce had known he was there far longer than he showed but spared him the embarrassment of getting caught by you. You turned around fast with surprise before melting into an expression that just gave away how happy you were to see him. Laughing lightly at himself, he walked toward the two of you. 
“A few seconds ago. Dick was getting annoying.”
You giggled, “I’m sorry to have bailed. I ran into your dad on the way back from the bathroom and he offered to show me the cave and…” You gestured all around you. To him it wasn’t much, but, as far, as he could tell, you liked it. “Don’t think I could resist getting a tour from the Dark Knight himself.”
He couldn’t see the appeal in what you described, but the cave and Bruce had become such an odd norm to him. He nodded over to the glass case. “Bruce told you the sob story of the dead bird.”
“No,” You said. “No birds here.”
Jason thought about rebuffing your words when he realized what you meant. Right, there were no dead birds. Just a dead kid. His eyes shifted over to Bruce whose eyes were looking glassier than usual. And, a dead son.
Jason cleared his throat. “We better get back upstairs, Dick’s gonna be pissed when he hears he wasn’t the one to give you the grand tour.”
“That’s right,” You said. “Let’s go. Are you coming, Mr. Wayne? I’d like to hear some more silly Jay-Jay stories.”
Bruce finally tore his eyes away to look at you and nodded. Clapping his hand on Jason’s shoulder and your’s he guided the two of you back upstairs. Though, usually apprehensive to his father’s touches, Jay tried not to be too quick to push away this time. 
It was the least a good dead son could do for his grieving father. It would be a good New Year’s resolution anyway, to breach the gap between him and Bruce. 
Just as the three of you emerged from the clock entrance upstairs, Dick entered the room. Looking distressed, he whined, “Did you show her the cave without me?”

!! let me know if I missed anything 🌻
english is NOT my first language so please be nice 🍄
...
2 Years ago, Jake fell in love with a Girl from School. Her Name was Dallia. Oh she was so goddamn beautiful ... her green Eyes, her beautiful long Hair, her bubbly personality and her bright smile made everyone around her fall in love. Jake was one of these people, who eventually fell in love with her. He was obsessed with her appearance just like everyone else. He would even write letters to her sometimes, or bring her flowers.
And only a few Months later, he made her fall in love with him as well. He couldn't believe, that the Girl he liked actually liked him back. The way she touched him, the way she kissed him, the way she made love to him felt like a Dream. He made her promise to never leave him. He was so in love with her ... but she loved him too. She loved him so much. And some day, she met you. You were Jake's best friend. Before Jake started dating Dallia, you spent every single Day together. Jake used to talk about her all the Time, which was a bit annoying but you didn't care at all. You were happy for him. And seeing him so happy made you even happier. The smile he had on his Face every time he talked about her, made you realize how much he loved her. And it made you wonder, how it feels like to be loved like that.
However, when Jake finally introduced you to Dallia, she didn't seem as excited as you were. She actually kind of glared at you the whole time, and acted extra clingy towards Jake. When Jake went to the Restroom, and left you two alone for a few Minutes you quickly explained, that you had no intention of stealing him from her or anything. You were just close Friends. But Dallia didn't even seem to care about what you had to say. Instead, she completely ignored you and played random Games on her Phone until Jake came back.
He sat down next to Dallia, leaving a quick Kiss on her Lips. Even though Dallia obviously hated your Company and made you feel kind of uncomfortable, you smiled at them. Jake was happy, and that's all that mattered. But Things started getting Toxic. Because one Day you got a Message from Jake. He told you, that Dallia doesn't want him to hang out with you anymore. She wanted him to stop talking to you, since she wanted to be the only Girl in his life.
Jake thought Dallia was flawless, but he most definitely found a flaw. Her jealousy. Jake was blinded by all the love he had for her, which made him do whatever she wants him to do. He felt bad for not talking to you, since you were his best friend. But he didn't want to lose the love of his life. And you couldn't even be mad at him for not talking to you. You knew, how much he was trying to be the best boyfriend for her. And you probably would've done the same Thing if you were in love with someone. But you were so scared, that she would hurt him. And you sent Jake one last Message telling him, that you would always be there for him no matter what happens. And after that, you haven't heard from him for a while.
He couldn't even look at you in School, because he felt so incredibly bad for not talking to you. He couldn't even say thank you for your last Text. But only a few Days later, everything changed. Jake moved into Dallia's Apartment after only one Month of dating. And about 5 Days ago, he was on his way Home from Gym. He was exhausted, but he made sure to get some Things from the Store before he went back Home. He texted Dallia if she needed anything, but never got an Answer. Jake started getting a bit worried, which made him hurry up a bit. He had this weird feeling in his Stomach on his Way home, which he absolutely hated. And as soon as he arrived at the Doorstep he knew, that something was wrong. He heard muffled Sounds coming from the Bedroom, as he slowly walked towards it. Every single step he took, made his Heart beat even faster. He took a deep breath, before slowly opening the Door to the Bedroom he usually felt so comfortable in. What he saw next, made his heart sink.
Dallia was cheating on him with a Guy, he didn't even know. The Guy was on Top of her,giving her soft thrusts as Dallia let out soft moans. Jake wanted to throw up. He wanted to scream and yell at her for doing this to him but he couldn't. His body was frozen... and he was speechless. He couldn't talk. His Heart broke into a million Pieces and he didn't even know what to do.  He had a thousand Tears running down his Cheeks, and he was so hurt. Maybe some people were right. Sometimes the one who loves you is the one who hurts you the most. And right after Jake let out a quiet sob, his deep, brown Eyes met Dallia's Green ones. Her eyes widened, as she immediately pushed the other Boy off her, making him gasp. ,,Jake, please let me explain...'' She begged, but Jake didn't say one Word. He just shook his Head in disbelief. ,,There's nothing to explain Dallia. You cheated on me'' His Voice cracked. Dallia quickly got up, covering her naked Body with a Blanket before quickly walking over to Jake. She looked at him in Pity, trying to stroke his Cheek. But before her Hand could even reach his Face, Jake softly slapped her Hand away from him. He didn't want to hurt her. He shook his Head once again. ,,It's over, Dallia.'' He said, sobbing. He took his Gym Bag and stuffed as much as he could into it before finally leaving the Apartment. And what he did next, made him feel incredibly guilty.
He took his Phone, and dialed your Number. And as soon as you picked up and heard him cry you knew, that something really bad happened. The only thing that could be heard was him sobbing his heart out. ,,Jakey?? .. What happened ? Where are you?'' You were so worried. ,,Can I please come over?'' Jake asked between his sobs. ,,Yes of course ... please hurry up it's gonna start raining i don't want you to get sick'' You quickly answered. Jake was so relieved you weren't mad at him. Instead you cared about him, and still wanted to help him. You were serious about your Friendship, that was for sure. Only a few Minutes later, Jake arrived at your Doorstep. He knocked on the Door a few Times, before you quickly opened it revealing Jake with puffy Eyes.
He almost immediately fell into your Arms. He was so weak and exhausted from all the crying. You took the Bag from his Shoulders before leading him to your Couch, making him sit down. ,,Do you wanna talk about what happened ?'' You carefully asked,trying to calm him down a bit. Your Hand found his Back, softly stroking it making him lean into your touch. ,,I caught her cheating on me'' He mumbled, as he started to cry again. Your Eyes widened. You didn't expect that. Jake was a mess. He was crying uncontrollably, as you pulled him to your chest. You held him as close as possible. He needed that in that Moment. Seeing Jake like this broke your Heart. You were so mad at Dallia for hurting him. But you were also mad at yourself, for letting her hurt him. You shouldn't have let him go that easily.
,,Everything will be okay, I promise'' You whispered before softly kissing the Crown of Jake's Head, making him whimper. ,,I'm so sorry for everything Y/N'' Jake suddenly said. You shushed him before he could say anything else. ,,Don't be sorry ... I understand every single decision you've made. You're my best Friend, remember ? I'm never gonna let you down '' Your eyes welled up with tears, as you looked at Jake. And a few Minutes later, he fell asleep in your Arms with dried Tears on his reddened Cheeks. You caught yourself staring at him. You looked at his puffy Lips, as you wiped away a Tear that ran down his rosy cheek in his sleep. 
1 Year later...
Jake was finally fully healed. With your help, he finally got all of his stuff out of Dallia's Apartment and even managed to talk to her one last time. He gave her a goodbye letter, and eventually left her Apartment forever. Instead, he ended up moving in with you. You spent every single Day together. You went out to eat Dinner, play Basketball even though you were really bad at it,  take late night walks, or your favorite : to play Laser Tag with your Friends.
And after a few Months, something pretty unexpected happened. You and Jake fell in love with each other. And you fell deep. You made Jake feel Things he has never felt before... not even Dallia could make him feel that way. But he never admitted that, since comparing your current Partner to your Ex is a very stupid Thing to do. But everything felt so much better. Your Kisses, Your Touch, and the way YOU made love to him felt so much better. It felt real. And he knew, he could trust you. You would never hurt him in any Way... and he was more than sure about that. He could tell by the Way you looked at him. You looked at him with so much love in your Eyes, it was crazy to him. Just like in this very Moment.
You were both in Bed, hiding under the covers giggling like little Kids. You were so in love with each other. Jake looked at you, softly stroking your Cheek with his Thumb, before pulling you into a soft, but passionate Kiss. ,,You're my favorite Person, Y/N'' He said, smiling against your Lips. You softly broke the Kiss. ,,Well you're MY favorite Person, Jakey'' You said, still close to his Lips. Jake smiled at you, before he softly kissed your Neck , making you smile at the Feeling of his soft Lips on your Skin. ,,Mine'' He whispered against your skin, as he inhaled your sweet, comforting scent.  You turned your Head to give Jake a quick Kiss on his Temple. ,, Jake ?'' He hummed, as he softly caressed the Skin under your Shirt. You smiled, before you spoke. ,,Make love to me'' ...let's say, you didn't have to tell him twice.

masterlist
taglist: @skzfairies, @3nhyp3nn [send an ask if you want to be on/off the taglist :)]
Tumblr media
“Alright, you're all done, Amanda.” 
Feeling soft bristles from the eyeshadow brush lift off her eyes as she flutters her eyes open. Entranced by her new appearance through the mirror, she smiles at ateez’s makeup artist, “Like always, your work is perfecto.”
“It’s because I have a gorgeous model.” Their makeup artist playfully butter up to her.
“Oh, stop.” Amanda went along with it, acting coy and shyly waving her hand.
“Alright. Alright. That’s enough.” The maknae butted in with a repulsive expression.
She grinned, “You're just jealous.” 
Jongho scoffs, “Please. I get just as many compliments about my appearance as you do. Now if you are done, can you get up? It’s my turn now.” He teasingly shooed her away with his hands.
“Fine.” She giggled as she raised from the chair and headed for the couch in the waiting room. 
Finally getting a break, she used this chance to check her messages she hadn’t been able to check since this morning. Normally her phone was the first thing she checked in the morning but she overslept for the first time in her life which had been giving her an ominous feeling since.
The thought quickly left her mind after seeing some text messages she received from the person she had been secretly hoping for. An amused smile spread on her lips as she read through the spams of messages.
[2:34am] Hannie😇: good morning, beautiful😘 
[2:34am] Hannie😇: ik you are asleep rn but dk showed me a cute video of a panda accidentally hitting itself with a stick
[2:35am] Hannie😇: and now i miss u even more😔
[2:36am] Hannie😇: also good luck on your stage today. I know you blow everyone away😁
[2:36am] Hannie😇: and make sure you eat properly 
Wait a minute. Was I just compared to a clumsy panda?
[8:21am] Rara💕: good morning hannie☺️
[8:21am] Rara💕: did u just compare me to a clumsy panda?🧐🧐
[8:22am] Rara💕: i feel like i should be offended but i have decided to spare you for today since you sent such lovely messages after it
[8:22am] Rara💕: aren’t i sweetest🥰
[8:23am] Rara💕: thank you for the luck and i ate a yummy bagel this morning🫡
[8:23am] Rara💕: make sure you also take care of yourself
[8:24am] Rara💕: and i miss you too
As she typed out the last message, she realized how much she actually meant it. It had been a couple of weeks since their last date with her busy with promotion on ateez’s comeback and him preparing for Seventeen’s next comeback, which he had very been remaining tiplipped to avoid spoiling. 
Though the two have been constantly contacting each other through phone to remain in touch, there was still a little part of her that missed having his physical presence around, which is unusual for someone who likes being alone and is nonstop surrounded by people all day.
She missed the way his eyes lit up and the gummy smile appears when he rambles about the things he loves, and his distinct breathy laugh as he throws his head back at some stupid joke she says. The little touches between them that make her heart feel like it's going to shoot out of her chest. 
She let out a longingly sigh. Maybe it is time to take the next step. As she leans back on the couch she thinks back to when Jeonghan and her first reciprocated their feelings.
“Aera, I don’t want to do anything that makes you feel uncomfortable. We don’t have to start a relationship right away. We can take things slow. This can be our first date together and we can keep going on dates like this. I’ll wait for you to make it official when you feel ready. How’s that sound?”
She felt a weight finally be lifted off her shoulder as she let out a sigh, “I’d like that.”
‘I’d like that’? Why did I say that? I barely had the courage to ask what was going on between us, so why the heck did I agree to be the one to make things official?
She was about to bury her hands in her face when she remembers their makeup artist's hard work plastered on her face, causing her to let out a small groan instead.
“Knock, knock, knock!” 
The boisterous voices snapped Amanda out of her dilemma enough to register the two girls who were poking their heads through ATEEZ’s waiting room, “Jiu unnie! Sua unnie!” 
It took only a mere second for the three to run and embrace each other in a seemingly endless hug.
Amanda played with the bright red fringes on Jiu’s shoulder, “I’m loving the red leather outfit today.”
“Why thank you. I am also loving your outfit today.” Jiu complimented back before smiling at the boys, “Good luck on your performance today.”
“You too, noona.” Seonghwa said.
“We are going to be stealing Amanda for a bit. I’m sure there are no complaints about that, right?” Sua glanced around the room for any rejections.
“It should be fine since we won’t be on until later.” Hongjoong replied.
“You can keep her too!” Yeosang added from his spot at the makeup area.
Amanda shot him a menacing glare then faced the girls with a sulking expression, “You see what I have to deal with. Please keep me away from them, unnie.”
“Gladly.” Sua linked arms with Amanda, leading her to the door, “Bye boys!” 
Jiu gave the boys a more appropriate goodbye before following the younger girls. The trio hustle down the corridor, none of them knowing exactly where their destination is, but enjoying every minute of their mini adventure.
“How have you ladies been?” Amanda asked as they began walking down the staircase of the emergency exit.
“Same as I was yesterday when we texted.” Jiu answered.
“What about you? Anything dramatically interesting happen to you in the last 10 hours?” Sua returned the question.
“Well…” She halted her steps on the staircase causing a domino effect on her two unnies.
Noticing Amanda’s cautious gaze, Jiu whispered softly, “What is it, Amanda?”
Amanda took a swift examination of her surroundings, noting that no one was in the near vicinity, “There is something I wanted to ask you guys about. Promise you won’t tell anyone about what I’m about to tell you.”
“Promise.” The duo gave their word with curiosity filled in their eyes.
“I have been going on dates with someone lately.” Amanda hushly confesses.
“What?!?” Sua's impulsive exclamation was instantly covered up by Jiu and Amanda’s hand as the three checked their surroundings again. Sua gave an apologetic smile, “Sorry. I was caught off guard. Since when? No wait, more importantly who?”
Amanda bite her lip. It should be alright to tell them who, right? She already told them she was this much and she fully trusted the girls to keep it a secret.
“You don’t have to tell us if you don’t want to.” Jiu interrupted her thoughts.
“No. I want to. I trust you guys. It’s just I still can’t believe we are friends or that he actually likes me.”
“Why? Who wouldn’t like you?” Sua rhetorically asked.
Amanda casually shrugs, replying with a half jokingly, “My millions of haters.”
“Those are inhumane people. We're talking about actual decent humans, which means the answer is no one.” Sua smugly corrected, making the youngest girl smile. “So will you tell us who it is?”
“Is it an idol?” Jiu added.
Amanda shyly nodded, “It’s Seventeen’s Jeonghan.”
Sua’s jaw slacks as she tries to process the information, “Seventeen, Seventeen?” 
“Is there another kpop group named Seventeen I don’t know about?” Amanda giggled at her friend's reaction.
“You’re lying.” Sua is still in disbelief.
“Do you need proof?”
“Do you have proof?” Sua was only playful teasing her, but Amanda was contemplating seriously. “I’m kidding, I belie-”
”Here.” Amanda pulled out her phone and presented the older girls with a selfie of the two of them that Jeonghan had taken on her phone on their last date.
Sua reached for her phone as Jiu looked over her shoulder to view the photo, “Wow. I can’t believe this.”
“You guys look adorable together.” Jiu cooed. Amanda felt heat run across her cheek. 
“I can’t believe the girl who could hardly talk to guys beside her members is actually dating someone now. Our baby is growing up.” Sua pretends to wipe away tears off her cheek before wrapping her arms around the younger girl. Jiu smiled fondly watching Sua continue to baby Amanda, who was grumbling and squirming her way out of Sua’s hug.
It was nice to see the younger girl be more open and not afraid to be herself. Whenever Jiu was around her, Amanda always had these walls built arounds making it hard for Jiu or anyone for that matter to enter. 
Sua was right. She really has grown up.
Amanda broke free of the hug, “But we aren’t actually dating though. We have confessed we liked each other but we haven’t made it official yet.”
Jiu tilts her head to the side pensively, “Why not?”
Sua dramatically gasped, diverting the two’s attention to her, “Is it because he doesn’t want labels? Because if that’s the case then leave hi-”
“No! Jeonghan isn’t like that.” Amanda quickly shut down the idea. 
“Wow, already defending him, I see.” Jiu says wryly as Sua chortle. These girls were enjoying this way too much.
“I was the one who held off making things official. I guess I was just scared to start dating right away.” Amanda explained to the older girls.
Sua gives an understanding nod, “That makes sense. It’s your first relationship. There’s nothing wrong with that.”
The younger girl smiles, feeling a sense of relief knowing her friends thought the same thing, “But I think I’m ready to make things official now. But I don’t know exactly how to go about it.”
“The best way is to tell him how you feel.” Jiu advised.
Amanda lets out a hopeless sigh, “That’s the problem. I’m not very good at expressing my feelings. Everytime I’m with him I’m lost for words.” 
“Why don’t you text him instead? That way you don’t have to worry about his presence.” Jiu suggested.
“I can write it out for you.” Sua offered, holding up Amanda’s phone, already opening up her text convo with Jeonghan.
“I don't know. Isn’t that a little bit too insincere?” Amanda doubted as the girls nodded in agreement. “I could call him.” She wonder out loud then let out a hopeless sigh, “But I know I’m going to end up saying something stupid.”
“Well we can practice. Pretend I’m Jeonghan. Just say what’s on your mind.” Jiu proposed.
“Okay. Umm, Jeonghan…these past two months with you have been incredible.” Amanda glanced at Jiu seeking some sort of reassurance from her, which Jiu returned with an encouraging nod. “I really-y like spending time with you. I-I….” She let out a groan, “I sound like a bumbling buffoon. I can’t do this.”
Jiu frowns, placing a comforting hand on the younger girl’s shoulder, “You are overthinking this too much.”
Sua decided to approach a different strategy, “Amanda, why do you want to be with Jeonghan?” 
Baffled by her sudden question, Amanda gawked at Sua, “What?”
“Why do you want to be with Jeonghan?” Sua repeated with more emphasis.
“I like Jeonghan.” Amanda confusingly answered, only to see Sua peering at her waiting for something more from her. Amanda gazed at her shoes, “...I really like him. I guess being away from him these past couple of weeks made me realize how much I really do like him. I always get this achy feeling inside me when we haven’t talked for a single day. I don’t want what we have to stop. I want something more. I want to be in a relationship with him even if there’s a huge risk of being together as idols because he makes me happy.”
After a moment of awkward silence for Amanda, she glances up at the two girls who were staring at the youngster in awe. Embarrassed by their gaze and flustered by her own words, she clears her throat and begins to ramble, “You know maybe I should just save myself from future embarrassment and just stop dating all together and then drop off the face of the earth.”
“Stop. What you just said was perfect.” Jiu assured her.
“Yeah, but I really don’t think I’ll be able to say that to him. Nor do I remember everything I just said.
“Well, you don’t have to worry about saying it again.” Sua sheepishly mutters, staring down at Amanda’s phone in her hand. The two girls stare at her waiting for an explainance. Sua gave a remorseful expression, “I may have accidentally dialed his number and this whole conversation is being left as a voicemail.”
“WHAT?!” Amanda rushed off to her, glancing at her phone to see his name and photo on the screen. “Ack! Why haven’t you hung up yet?!” She snatched her phone back, clicking the bright red button, which was similar color to her face at the moment, on her screen. “What am I going to do?” She hung her head and placed her hands on her face.
“This is good actually. You said what you wanted to say without having to say it infront of him. Well now you have.” Jiu attempted the optimistic approach.
Amanda raises her head, “Yeah, but we don’t know when it started leaving a voicemail. What if it only recorded the ending? You know the part where I said that I should stop dating.” 
The older duo remained quiet, not able to refute her statement.
“Amanda, I hate to worsen the atmosphere, but your makeup is smudged.” Jiu softly told her. Amanda let out an anguished groan.
That ominous sensation she had felt all day was rightfully so.

Satan x Reader Prank gone wrong
Your last lesson for today was demonic language and while the teacher was speaking you were on your DDD. At times Satan who was sitting right next to you would give you nudges as to say to pay attention. Before you locked your DDD you see Belphegor has sent a message in your Anti Lucifer league groupchat.
"Let's meet up after class I have a good idea for a prank on Lucifer!" You gave Satan a nudge to read the message, he smirked and nodded. You at last put down your DDD and listened to the teacher. 
When the class was finally over you three met up and found a place to be alone. "What do you have in mind?" Satan asked
"Solomon has made a powder that reveals romantic bonds, how about we throw it on Lucifer to reveal who he loves?" Belphegor suggested
  "Why would I want to know that?" Satan asked
"Not you but the entire Devildorm! Imagine how upset all of his fans will be and hunt him down" Belhpegor said
"Ah then I'm in" Satan said without hesitation
"Do you already have the powder?" you asked Belphegor
"Yep all we need now is to find Lucifer though we must not let him see us" Belphegor said
"Yeah that will be tricky.." Satan said
"How about one of us sneak up on him?" you suggested
"Sounds good, let's do it tomorrow though when it's more crowded" Satan agreed
"We have to make sure he is alone and not with Diavolo or any of our brothers" Belphegor said. You all agree and he gave you and Satan samples of the powder.
The next day the three of you went to Devildorm earlier than usual and spread out. Though Satan was sure Lucifer would be at the student council before classes started and went there. You walked through the hallway holding onto the sample in your pocket incase you spotted Lucifer. But all of a sudden a bright pink string was formed in your hand, panic started to hit and you checked your groupchat.
"I did it, I throw the powder on Lucifer! Let the chaos unfold" Satan wrote
"I wonder who the person is he loves" Belphegor wrote
Before your could reply you hear from behind "Hey the string is leading this way" you looked behind and saw a group of demon girls coming towards you.
  "So he loves the human exchange student!" one of them said
"No wait this is a misssunderstanding" you said trying to defend yourself. the other girl grabbed your collar and held you up.
"Listen here you're not worth to be with such a high ranking demon as him, leave our Lucifer alone" she said. Everyone in the corridor stopped at what they was doing to watch.
"I promise nothing is going on between him and I, I love someone else" you said trying to keep calm. You had only slept with him once but that was in order to form a pact with him, since then nothing had happened. You loved Satan whom you had a secret relationship with.  As much as you wanted to fight back with magic you was scared you would be in trouble. The girl threw you down on the floor and the group encircled you and started to kick your sides.
"Please stop it!" you begged protecting your head with your hands
"Look how weak she is" One of them said laughing
"And she's supposed to be one of the strongest sorceres along with Solomon"
  "You guys stop this right now!" Speaking of Solomon, he pushed between the group to get to you. Surprised by his sudden appearance the group stopped and let him through and he knelt down before you.
  "Are you okay?" he asked you
  "I don't know" you whispered and carefully sat up
"(Name)!" you hear Satan's voice, you looked up to face him and he looked so worried. "All of you go back to your classes!" he orered everyone.
  "Satan" you said crying and took his hand to help you up
"Look after her, I'll go and report the group to Lord Diavolo" Solomon said
"Okay thanks Solomon" Satan said and he walked away. Satan embraced you holding you gently and stroke your back to calm you down. "You're not hurt anywhere?" he asked worried.
"No.. how did you find me?" you asked once you had calmed down
"You didn't reply to my text nor calls so I went to look for you and then saw that the string was connected to you. I didn't imagine you would be the one Lucifer loved and I didn't expect his fans would go after you...I'm so sorry" Satan apologised.
  "It's fine"
"No it's not! You got attacked it's not fine" Satan said
  "Do you think the entire Devildorm knows by now?" you asked
"Probably...news spreads so fast here" Satan sighed
Convincing Satan that you're okay the two of you hurried to your lesson. After the lesson ended all the brothers except Lucifer and the angels asked if you were okay and you said you are and clamed them down.
  "What will happen now? Does (Name) have to go back to the human world?" Luke asked worried
"No I don't think that will be necessary" Simeon said
"Where is Lucifer anyway? He has been awfully quiet today" Mammon asked
"Well if he's not in class then he must be at the student council" Satan said
"His fans doesn't seem to have attacked him as we hoped they would be, disappointing" Belphegor sighed
"They don't dare that's why and go after (Name) instead" Satan said
  "Wait are you two behind this?" Leviathan asked
"Ohh you two will be in so much trouble" Asmodeus said amused
"Asmo this is not funny at all" Satan said
Since both you and the brothers are members of the student council you were all called to a meeting. It was awkward for both you and Satan to see Lucifer during these circumstances, as soon as Lucifer saw you he pulled you into a hug making Satan angry.
  "I was told what happened to you I'm sorry" Lucifer said
"I'm alright please don't apologise" you told him and broke from his embrace. If anything it's yours, Satan's and Belphegor's fault. You all took your seats.
  "Solomon let me know of the group that's responsible for the beatings of (Name) and I've made sure it will not happen again" Diavolo said
"Thank you" you said to him
  "Okay come forward I know it was one of you who are behind this" Lucifer said angrily and no one said anything.
"It was Satan and Belphegor" Asmodeus suddenly said earning glares from his brothers.
"Satan no reading for a week, Belphegor no naps for a week" Lucifer said You were about to say that you was part of this too but Satan signaled you not to by squeazing your hand under the table.
  "We are working on informing all the students to leave you alone" Barbatos said to you
"I think the best way to solve it is for you Lucifer to tell them" Diavolo said
"Fine" Lucifer sighed
Shortly after you all was dismissed Lucifer went public and said that you and him are not in a relationship and that no one is allowed to abuse you ever again. Even though he said that you were still nervous about being there but luckily Satan was with you all day which made you feel better.
That night Satan slept in your bed, you two would occasionally sleep together in each other's beds and this time it was yours. Usually you two would read books together at this time but since he wasn't allowed to you layed together and cuddle with him embracing you and have your head resting on his chest.
  "It's not a bad punishment after all since I can use it to cuddle with you instead" Satan smiled kissing your cheek.
"I agree but why didn't you want me to confess I was part of the prank too?" you asked
"Because you became a victim you don't deserve being punished although I don't think Lucifer would give you a tough one" Satan explained
"Yeah I don't think so either" you said
"He hasn't contacted you or anything?" Satan asked
"No nothing" You said
"Good" Satan sighed in relief
  "Thank you for looking after me today I appreciate it" you thanked it
"It's nothing to thank me for I'll do anything to protect you" he said, you blushed and buried your head in his chest.
  "However if you want to repay me I can think of a few things" Satan smirked. You climbed so that you're on top of him and looked into his green eyes.
"Anything for you" you smiled

Hi hiraaa! Its coffee anon, its been so long since I’ve last sent an ask but my life has been really hectic and i wasn't really in the right mental state for a while which is why I haven't sent an ask in so long! I’m trying to come back to my usual self and I wanted to let you know that I’m still reading and loving all your works ever since I last sent a message and I think it's about time I sent my gratitude hehe sooo here are my thoughts and all my love on all the works I didn't comment on during my absence, I’m sure I missed a bunch here and there so I hope you can forgive me for that but know that I love everything you write and it brightens my day :DD without further ado, let's start!
From what I remember, the last post I wasnt able to comment on was the last part of I love you so which is such a shame because I was sobbing crying and grinning by the end of it all. I love that you included all the parallels at the beginning because it added just the perfect amount of pain in my heart before even getting started. AND THEN THE DRAMA HIT! I distinctly remember holding back a scream bc i was reading pt 4 at like 2am in the morning and when she ran out in the rain i had to take a breather before I actually burst and THEN DILUC RUNS AFTER HER AND I JUST LOST IT, AAAAAAA WHEN HE WHEN HE WHEN HE JUST im still feeling the tingle of excitement and thrill when reading that part to this day and it just felt like i was there at the time and i honestly started sobbing when he finally confessed bc i was just so happy that THEYRE THERE! THEY FINALLY GOT IT! LIKE YES BESTIES YOU LOVE EACH OTHER! I'm really glad we got to see what happened after but kaeya’s part had me holding in a big sob cause that's my comfort husbando right there, like ilysm kaeya pls im sorry but im just glad the dearest couple finally had there happy ending bc they deserve it and i just love them okay?
The next one seems to be Diluc’s big family 1 but I'm gonna talk abt the whole series here bc i dont want to overshare hehe, for some context i don’t really like kids except for a select few, kids seem to like me well enough but Ive always been a little annoyed with them growing up but this series has me rethinking everything honestly. The first part had me all smiley bc of how sweet it would be to see diluc coming home and just 4 kids hounding him as a welcome touches my heart. Part 2 had me cackling bc i love the reactions of everyone and i can just imagine the overwhelming look of surprise and disbelief on their face when they see the ragvindr family. Then part 3 was just wholesome sweet chaos and a perfect mix of the last two parts AND THE KAEYA APPEARANCE AT THE END? Totally see him doing that i love him sm pls, anyway i love all the kids and i would do anything for them
Up next is another angst with diluc but this time it's with my newest comfort character, ayato. When i first read this one I knew that I was going to be hurt but i did NOT expect it to hit me as hard as it did AHAHAHA when it got to the goodbye part I IMMEDIATELY thought of that scene in little women (i havent watched the movie but ive seen the scene multiple times bc the acting and emotion is just amazing) i was surprised to find out that i was actually right! Anyway, this drabble broke me bc i just know that having this perfect connection but not being able to follow it is so painful for both parties and i cant help but cry for them
The next one is the kid! Kamisato! Reader having a crush on thoma and when I tell you I cackled so hard I might have hit my hand a little bit too hard on my desk. The situation is just so hilarious and I love the idea of young Ayato losing control of his emotions bc his little sister decided that she likes sweet thoma more than him and I cant get his cute little pout out of my head which is why I keep laughing a lot. I actually had a crush who rejected me so gently that we actually became friends after and i liked them more because of how sweet they were honestly so i can totally see thoma as the type to let someone down so nicely that you cant even be sad! The ending made me lose it again though AHAHHAHA the poor boba (1/2) ~coffee anon
I've gatekeeped this ask for a month but NOW THAT I FINALLY KNOW HOW A PERSONAL TAGLIST WORKS (and I have a reblog acc!) I CAN KEEP THIS FOREVER
I cant even begin to believe that you remembered my works and kept comments for them while you were giving yourself some space!! 😭 I'm so glad to hear you're feeling much better now, a hectic life really does take its toll so it's good you're back!! coffee you're literally so sweet im dhjsdhiejdid this is my happy box

9/22/23 — 1:20am
i hate wanting to be productive in the middle of the night. i was tired all day tdy, and now i just want to do something productive. no!!! i work earlier than usual tomorrow!!!!
im doing my skincare now... i wore makeup tdy so i have no choice but to do it 🤯
im tired still but i dont want to sleep. i feel like i havent been productive enough tdy even though i went to 3 different appointments and within the 2 hours before work i cleaned my bathroom sink (that was incredibly disgusting, i am not exaggerating. no one has cleaned it in like a little over a year. my dad shaves his face there whenever it gets like 5 inches long and doesnt clean the hair out of the sink/on the counter. its gross.), made ramen (it wasnt v good).... at work i walked around almost the whole 6 hours. my feet hurt so!! bad!! after i work. it happens every time. it doesnt help that when i fell down my stairs, my "sprained" foot didnt heal properly. i also hurt my hand at work and have not seen a doctor .... im ngl im like a mess and if i tell anyone abt this theyll tell me its because im fat and need to lose weight WE GET IT. I KNOW. IM TRYING, AND JUST BECAUSE I AM DOESNT MEAN THAT I CANT HAVE SMTH WRONG WITH ME?????
anyways
im tired. like mentally and physically. i had counseling tdy and i told her everything and the time still wasnt full. she shared some things abt her life recently... still didnt fill the time. she didnt respond much at all, but she's grieving, so i understand
im not telling anyone except u and my digital diary about my situation with my ex... i need to stop complaining to people abt him and making it everyones problem when its really my fault i keep letting him back in my life. its bad! ive literally had dreams where he did that *thing* but like in an extremely worse way, and i told myself that i just had to live with it, that i have to get used to it. and, i mean, i guess i do... if i can *** ***** then he can do whatever.
im not even with him... just flirting heavily. he picks up on it, i think so, anyway....
im tired
i saw that u updated ur music playlist you sent to me recently ! so heres a song for u in return
2:51am
idk why it pisses me off so bad but when b says shes ugly it makes me so angry. "why cant i be like the pretty girls?" she is the definition of a pretty girl... she may not see it because people were mean to her growing up but its like... ive cried SO much because of how pretty she is. my parents call her the pretty girl, people at school say shes pretty all the time... it just makes me so upset that someone as pretty as her cant see it. and i wish she could, honestly.
and i hate that this makes me so angry. i have so much envy that it rips me apart every second of the day, and i hate it!!!!! im the fat, ugly friend, and i always felt bad for her being friends with me. she says that im one of the prettiest ppl she knows.... if that were true, would she have deleted all the photos of me off of her phone? who knows. and the fact that people compliment her all the time at school and in public should say A LOT about how pretty she is. it happens all the time! and i mean all the time. maybe she doesnt think it was genuine or she forgets? idk... i think the last time a stranger complimented my appearance was a year and a half ago at a taco bell drive thru. the last time i was called pretty (besides when my mom says it) was at leastt 6 months ago. im like distraught because she is literally so beautiful fuck
this is going to make me cry myself to sleep because i cant say any of this to her because this is really just unhealthy of me, like the envy and making me seem like the victim. it just makes me so upset that everyone thinks shes pretty but herself
yeah im def crying myself to sleep gn i work in 11hrs which sounds like a long time from now but i havent slept yet lol
3:16am
ok i lied i messaged her and said "i saw you commented "i wish i was one of the pretty girls" on a tiktok, and i really need you to know that you are the pretty girl. youre so incredibly beautiful not only on the outside but the inside too... it can be rare to find someone like that. i hope youre able to see yourself through my eyes someday and see yourself for what you truly are—beautiful"
i hope it doesnt come off weird
ok i cried and messaged her i should rlly just sleep now

Pressure Part 1 - Gone : Ross Macdonald Series
A/n: hi everyone! I'm so fucking anxious to post this but this is the first chapter of my new Ross series! I'm so excited to be writing this and I love it already and hope you do too. And this is how it starts.....
Prologue
Series Masterlist
Warnings: mentions of death, angst, loss of a loved one
17 missed calls from George.
19 missed calls from Ross.
10 missed calls from Matty.
6 missed calls from Hann.
17 missed calls from Jamie.
Over 42 messages, almost 30 of them from Ross.
4 hours since the band got off stage.
Tumblr media
They kept arguing about calling her, planning who was going to call her and when, ensuring two people weren't calling at the same time. She was supposed to arrive at the venue over 9 hours ago but was nowhere to be seen. They couldn't get ahold of her, or her friends, or her family: everyone was seemingly unreachable. No one had heard from her since before the gig, the last message she had sent was on their group chat, "excited to see my boys, know you'll do me proud".
George paced back and forth in the hotel they were staying at, calling everyone he knew, asking each and everyone of them: where was the last time you saw her, when, where was she, have you heard from her, when was the last time you saw her?
Ross sent her text after text, worrying when two grey ticks appeared, begging for them to turn blue. He stared at her picture at the top of their chat, a picture of her with his bass resting on her lap, hoping with every fiber of his being that she was okay.
He remembers that day like it was yesterday, she practically begged him to teach her bass, she caught on quickly, having already been able to play the guitar, she said it wasn't much different, he was jokingly offended at that. He loved watching her play his songs, laughing to herself when she messed up, sometimes doing it on purpose so his hands would come into contact with hers to move their fingers on the strings. He remembers even more vividly when he decided to pluck up the courage to place her in his lap, writing it off as being easier to adjust her movements, what he hadn't expected was for her to discard the bass completely and press her mouth to his. He remembers that day like it was yesterday and was begging for there to be more like it.
Her phone sat in her bag, the constant and insistent buzzing and ringing didn't phase her anymore, it was like white noise. She knew who was calling, having set different ringtones for each of them, all one of their own songs, some of them hated her choices but she never explained why she picked them. The phone was smashed but was salvaged when they took her and Alex out for the car. They told her to call someone to let them know she was safe, she called her Mum, bravely explaining the situation, to all appearances she was calm, but on the inside she felt like she'd either cry or throw up if she opened her mouth now.
The cold, solid, plastic chair was uncomfortable but she didn't care anymore, she sat with her head in her hands, waiting for the door opposite her to open, for someone in a white lab coat to come out and tell her everything was going to be okay, that he was okay. She had completely forgotten where they were at this point, she didn't worry about how much this would cost. The people who had spoken to her so far had an accent but in her current state she couldn't pinpoint what it was.
She didn't feel like the car was going fast because it wasn't, they were going at the speed limit, nothing could have stopped it from happening. No matter how hard he pressed against the break or the accelerator, the truck was moving too quickly, too carelessly, the driver was tired, overworked. It happened so quickly, one minute her and her brother were laughing, listening to her favourite band, ready to see them perform, see her best friends perform, along with her brother.
She sat with a cut above her eyebrow, three stitches was all she needed, a broken arm and a rapid heart that wouldn't slow. But he sat, unconscious on a hospital bed in god knows what state.
His side of the car took the impact. The car spun and then flipped, she managed to stay conscious, vision blurry and she couldn't hear very well. She couldn't remember how long it took to pull them out, or the journey here. She just remembers gripping onto Alex, the ambulance workers asking for space. Space when all she wanted was to be at his side.
Tumblr media
"Her mum's calling me" George says, everyone in the room shooting up from their seats at the news. Ross at his side in two strides, trying his hardest to press his ear to the phone to hear what was happening.
"Okay... Okay... O....k.... Shit.... Is she okay? Is he okay? What's happening?" They hear all at once, the drummer the most stressed they had ever seen him. Ross couldn't hear what Eliza's mum was saying but felt his heart sink at the look on George's face.
"Okay... Yeah we'll be there" they hear George say before he's hanging up. They all look at him, mouths open, just waiting for him to say something, anything.
"Eliza got into a car accident... She's okay, well she's had to have stitches and her arm is broken" everyone's faces drop, Ross feels himself shake out of worry, knowing there must be more.
"But it's Alex..." George says, Eliza had been in their lives since they were 14 and her older brother had been there for most of that time too. They didn't see him as much but he had become a welcome addition, someone they all looked up to.
"He's not conscious. "
Tumblr media
She hears two pairs of footsteps but doesn't look up from the ground. Ross feels his heart break as he sees her tear stained cheeks, the eyeliner she was wearing running down her face. The custom 1975 Tshirt that she's wearing would usually make them smile, their faces scattered across it, but covered in blood makes them feel sick. He takes on the deep cut above her eyebrow and the stitches that close it, and her arm which is in cast.
"Eliza...." She hears a soft voice say, a usual deep and gravelly voice pitched up an octave. The voice of her best friend.
She looks up in slow motion, the face of someone broken finding two sets of eyes. She goes to stand to lurch her body into George's arms but she nearly falls, Ross catches her and she falls into his chest instead, her tears soaking his shirt.
"You're okay, you're okay... We're here" Ross says, her sobs shaking her whole body so he grips her tighter. George stands looking at them, not knowing what to do, so he presses against her back, hugging her tightly.
She turns in Ross arms to hug George now, needing her best friend. It usually would pain Ross to see that, but right now, he gets it.
"He's.... He's..." Is all she can get out.
"I've got you" George says, pulling her tighter into her arms.
How was she going to live without her brother?
Tumblr media
"How are you doing?"
It's been a year since her brother died. 365 days of grieving her best friend. How was she doing? What a ridiculous question.
She had spent a lot of time with Ross, he helped her heal, not fully... But things didn't feel so bad when he was around. Alex liked him. She remembers the day they met, Alex said he was fit, it made her laugh, he told her he'd be good for her. Alex knew she was falling in love with him, despite knowing George would be pissed. Alex encouraged it. She was in love with him, but she had just lost her brother.
Things didn't feel so bad when he was around. Alex liked him. She had to remind herself that, otherwise she'd kill herself with guilt. How could she be in love when she just lost her brother?
Her mind is still plagued by the events of that night, she can't sleep very well, often shaken by nightmares, that night repeating in her mind. Ross helped but she was still scared and broken.
365 days ago. The anniversary of his death. The day her life flipped upside down.
"I'm okay" she lies.
"Yeah? That's good sweetheart, really good. You know he'd be looking down on you, telling you to live your life" ifs her mum. Her words wound her.
She looks to her side, a sleeping Ross lying on his stomach, face smushed into his pillow, his pillow that smelt like her.
"You think? Mum... I..." She stops herself from speaking. She wants to explain how she's falling in love, how she feels awful that she's even remotely happy some of the time, that there are moments where she completely forgets her brother is dead. Moments where she's consumed with the happiness Ross brings into her life, the love she feels when she's with him, how he heals her. But she doesn't speak, she doesn't tell anyone, not her brother, not George, not anyone.
"Love? You still there? You okay?"
"Yeah mum. I'm okay. Look I've got to go. I love you" and then she hangs up. She drops a kiss to Ross' cheek, removing herself from the bed, removing Ross shirt, getting changed into fresh clothes. Clothes that didn't smell like him. She collected her things and left. Leaving no trace of herself.
Ross wakes 40 minutes later, reaching for her side of the bed, it's cold.
"Liza?" His eyes open, scanning the room, no signs of her. She's gone.
Tumblr media
She looks down the hall way before lightly tapping against his door and not a minute later it's swinging open revealing a sleepy looking Ross. He steps aside and then the door shuts.
They silently make their way to his bed, falling into their usual rhythm, she shuffles about until she's comfortable, her head resting against his chest, his hand smoothing down her back, mouth pressing gentle kisses to the top of her head.
"Where do you go when you disappear?" He asks, his voice riddled with sleep.
"I just walk...." she sighs and then he sighs, pressing a kiss to the top of her head as he hears her sob, shaking in his grasp. All he can is hold her, hold her until the wounds and the cracks slowly heal.
"I've got you"
Tumblr media
Notes: hope you enjoyed. It's not the longest chapter but this is just the beginning. Please let me know what you think, or if you have any ideas or any constructive criticism... Please me kind to me though haha, I'm fragile at the moment. Love L ❤️

Tom Sandoval Finally Apologizes to Ariana Madix for Sordid Raquel Leviss Affair
Tumblr media
Better late than never we suppose, huh?
Also, some might accurately say, way too little and way too late.
On Tuesday, Tom Sandoval issued a lengthy statement on Instagram, finally addressing Ariana Madix directly over the painful and personal way he forced her to end the couple’s nearly decade-long relationship.
Tumblr media
Madix learned about the affair last week after discovering inappropriate text messages between her boyfriend and her colleague.
“I want to first and foremost apologize to everyone I’ve hurt through this process,” Sandoval began yesterday. 
“Most of all, I want to apologize to Ariana. 
The musician and businessman continued:
“I can only imagine how devastating this has been for Ariana and everyone around us. I feel really horrible about that. 
“My biggest regret is that I dishonored Ariana. I never meant to disappoint so many people, including our loving families and friends.”
Tumblr media
Sandoval went on to reflect on his long relationship with Madix. 
“My love for Ariana was stronger than any camera could ever have captured,” he wrote. 
“Some of our best times together were never filmed. The same goes for some of our biggest struggles. I wish things happened in a different order and our relationship was not severely tarnished, and that it ended with the same respect for her that it began with.
Tumblr media
Concluded the unethical star in his message:
“I am beyond sad that it ended the way it did.
“The choices I made hurt so many people. I acted in a way that clashes with who and how I want to be. I will continue to reflect and work on myself. 
Tumblr media
Previously, Sandoval asked critics to direct their ire over this situation only at him — and to leave his restaurant/business partners alone.
“Hey, I fully understand an deserve ur anger & disappointment towards me, but please leave [Tom] Schwartz, my friends and family out of this situation,” Sandoval wrote via Instagram on Saturday, March 4, adding:
“Schwartz specifically only found out about this very recently, and most definitely did not condone my actions. This was a very personal thing…
“I’m so sorry that my partners, Greg, Brett, and Schwartz and our employees have to suffer for my actions. I will be taking a step back & taking a hiatus out of respect for my employees & partners. 
Tumblr media
Among those unimpressed by Sandoval’s statements on this scandal, meanwhile, we present Lala Kent.
She continued to share her unfiltered thoughts during an Amazon Live appearance on Tuesday.
“Tell us you’re a narcissist without telling us you’re a narcissist. It’s just so textbook to me,” she said of Sandoval’s first mea culpa, adding of him and Leviss:
I don’t feel for them at all. But I never have. This just was like, ‘You’re disgusting’ but never liked either of you.

What I Mean (Sherlock Holmes x Reader) [Request]
Hi lovely! Love love LOVE your work! You’ve got some truly amazing stories 💝 would I be able to request a Henry!Sherlock Holmes x reader one shot where the reader has feelings for Sherlock but thinks that he doesn’t like her at all? — Requested by anon
Warnings: none
Tumblr media
Gif Source: acecroft
The first time you saw Sherlock, you fell in love. It wasn’t because of how he looked or how he carried himself. It was how he brushed past that insufferable Constable Lowell, ignoring the man’s protests with a wave of his hand. The way Lowell became flustered and upset and the way DI Lestrade laughed at him made your heart swell in your chest. After the last five months of verbal bullying from the constable, you were supremely satisfied to see him humiliated.
Sherlock frequently appeared unexpectedly at Scotland Yard. You learned to recognize his presence in the building before you ever saw him. There was something about the way he moved through the place, like it was of little consequence, that you could feel. It reminded you of being caught out in a storm with lightning striking nearby, the hair on your arms rising as static built up in the air.
You didn’t meet Sherlock until your fourth month of employment. What had started as a typing job had turned into secretarial work—with no increase in pay to account for your extra duties. You strode into Lestrade’s office with a thin smile and said, “If I’m going to be mitigating your literacy blunders, I expect to be compensated.”
“That’s out of the question. You are a typist and are paid accordingly.”
“Well, then, in that case…” You dumped a huge stack of folders in front of him. “I don’t need to inventory these.”
Lestrade stared at the stack in displeasure.
“Oh, and they haven’t been properly sorted. I’m only meant to type, not to organize your chaos.”
“Now wait.”
“I expect a ten-percent increase. That’s what a proper secretary gets paid. Oh, and the title. I want everyone to know I am not a mere typist.”
The muscle in his jaw jumping, Lestrade reluctantly agreed. Sweeping the files up in your arms, you strode out of the room, light on your heels.
Sherlock leaned beside the door, a faint smirk playing on his lips. You stumbled, surprised by his appearance.
“I thought I was the only one who could so easily maneuver Lestrade,” he said.
“He makes it too easy,” you managed to say.
Sherlock’s eyes skimmed the files. “They’re already organized, I see.”
“The trick is making him think only I can do this job.”
“Clever.” Then he was in Lestrade’s office discussing a case, leaving you standing there flushed.
~~
Sherlock took to greeting you cordially each time he passed by your desk after the incident with Lestrade. Sometimes he didn’t meet with Lestrade at all, instead opting to leave you with a message for the detective inspector. Sherlock never spent long at your desk, much to your disappointment, but the few minutes he spared you each time were enough to make you float the rest of the day.
You had taken it upon yourself to have all the necessary information on all of Lestrade’s cases close at hand. Sherlock often appeared to ask Lestrade for information regarding something he had read in the paper or heard from others. The first time you furnished him with a small envelope of the relevant information, you had been pleased to see genuine surprise in the consulting detective’s face.
“You are quite indispensable,” he remarked. “I don’t know how Lestrade managed anything before you.”
“Poorly, I would imagine.”
“I heard that!”
Smothering a laugh with your hand, you settled back at your desk and tried to think of something else to say to make Sherlock linger for a few moments. Before you could, he dipped his head and left.
You didn’t know why you kept entertaining the idea of interacting properly with Sherlock. The society rumor mill claimed the man was impossible to nail down and seemed uninterested in any of the ladies. It was supposed he, being an eccentric, was possibly too obsessed with his sleuthing hobby and therefore poor marriage material anyway.
Still, you flirted with the idea until you saw him interact with his sister, Enola. He smiled at her and praised her for a particularly thorny case she had unraveled.
Oh, you thought with dismay, feeling all hope leave you. He treats me like his sister.
The realization settled deep in your bones. It had been fruitless all along, the special treatment you had accorded him, the way he seemed pleased with you.
Of course he was pleased with you, you snarled inwardly. You helped him with his work. Even he suffers Lestrade in order to do that. You are nothing but a convenient secretary he doesn’t need to pay.
You couldn’t bear the thought of making things difficult for him, however, so you continued to keep the case information neatly organized and accessible. While everything in you had changed, the only outward sign of it was a sudden coolness toward him. You no longer smiled easily when he arrived, and you spent most of your time avoiding his gaze, busying yourself with tasks at your desk.
If he noticed, he gave no sign. It was as you had thought. You were of little consequence to him.
~~
A year after being hired, you considered quitting. There was a small detective agency in need of female detectives to uncover unfaithful wives and husbands for divorce proceedings. It would get you away from the stifling atmosphere of Scotland Yard, where the likes of Lowell and his ilk still roamed unchecked. You could do with a change.
You could do with an escape from a certain debonair consultant.
“You can’t leave,” Lestrade declared. “I won’t allow it.”
“Did I sign a contract, sir?”
“No, but why would that—”
“Then I am under no obligation to continue working for you.”
Lestrade sputtered, trying to refute you. “You’re needed here.”
“I know a woman who is as adept as I am at this work.”
“But—”
“I’ve made my decision, detective. Please leave me to it.”
You remained only to show your replacement the way of things and to warn her about Lowell and the others. Only then did you leave and seek a posting in the detective agency.
A day after you had applied and been accepted, you arrived to work in your work clothes, fully expecting to be sent somewhere to survey a cheating spouse. As you walked through the door, you heard exclamations from within.
“Mr. Holmes! What an honor it is to have you grace our establishment.”
You froze in the doorway, heart hammering in your chest. Sherlock’s broad back was turned to you, his face in three-quarter profile. You wanted to flee, to escape the magnetic pull you felt in your presence.
Your new employer saw you past Sherlock’s shoulder. “Ah, here she is.” Waving you over, he watched you walk stiffly down the hallway, your hands clenched into nervous fists by your sides.
Sherlock turned to you, fixing you with those striking blue eyes. You felt trapped beneath them, sucked in their magnetism once more. Swallowing thickly, you nodded. “Mr. Holmes.”
He smiled tentatively at you, revealing the point of a canine.
“Mr. Holmes has requested you for an investigation,” you employer said. “I offered him Miss Hemmings, of course, she being our finest, but he insisted on you.”
The hair on the back of your neck rose. Resisting the urge to scratch, you asked, “Did he?”
“I did. Now, if we could go? We are wasting time.”
Fighting the disappointment rising in you, you followed Sherlock out the door and into a transom. Enclosed in the small space, you couldn’t avoid his scent, a pleasing mix of tobacco smoke and something else. You avoided his gaze, folding and refolding your hands in your lap.
“You left Scotland Yard.”
A statement. You nodded but didn’t offer anything more. “Where are we going?”
“Did I do something wrong?”
You frowned, lifted your head. “I beg your pardon?”
“Did I do something incorrect?” A crease appeared between the man’s eyebrows. “Your demeanor toward me changed in the two months leading up to your resignation.”
Toying with the fingers of your gloves, you felt panic clawing up your throat. He had noticed. What did that mean?
“I can only conclude that something occurred, but I can’t determine what.”
You met his concerned eyes. “I…it doesn’t matter, Mr. Holmes. I can do whatever job you need me to with as much professional courtesy as it requires.”
His lips pulled into a thin frown. “That isn’t what I’m asking.”
“I don’t know what you mean, then.”
“Please, you are smarter than that. Or was my regard for you misplaced?”
You blinked in surprise, unsure you had heard correctly. “It…isn’t my place to tell you where to place your regard.”
He laughed then, a sudden HA that made you jump. “You are making this difficult, aren’t you?”
“Excuse me?”
“I am not given over to emotionalism, but I won’t deny that your treatment of me in those last months affected me.”
“I didn’t mean to—”
“What I mean to say is that I had hoped we were developing a familiarity.” His hand went to his collar, adjusting it. “I had hoped to…call on you.”
Your head snapped up in surprise. “To call on me?”
“I had thought my feeling for you was returned, but if I am mistaken, please inform me now to save us both further embarrassment.”
You could hardly speak around the tightness in your throat. “It is returned.”
The smile on Sherlock’s face made your heart ache. “Good. I’m glad we have remedied that. Now, if we’re both to be detectives, then I suppose we had best collaborate. I need you to spy on Richard Haskell. It seems…”

Tumblr media
Draco Malfoy was insufferable.
The Prince of Slytherin was unbearable for many reasons, things you've been taking notice of since your first year at Hogwarts when you accidentally had the ”pleasure” of interacting with him when he called you stupid in a class for reciting a spell incorrectly. That day, a hostility blossomed. A hostility that ensued nothing but teasing, mocking, and criticizing that would sometimes go too far and you'd both have to be pulled away from each other by your friends’ before either of you said anything excessively harsh that had no return.
You often felt like Malfoy sought you out to bother you and only for that. You could be sitting in the Quad with friends, conversing and laughing like nothing in the world mattered, and a few minutes later you'd be hurling insults towards the blond across the courtyard after he would yell something infuriating to you with that smug smirk on his face and his goons laughing wildly beside him as if he just said the most hilarious thing they've ever heard. 
On the days you’d ignore him, not having the patience or the energy to deal with him, he would still somehow find a way to push your buttons. Little things here and there like passing you in the corridors and tugging at the ends of your hair gingerly like a child but enough to tick you off or sending you notes from across the class in the form a small fluttering bird with a lousy drawing of you usually with a message along the lines of, “Y/L/N, hopefully, this note finds itself in the nest of hair you have today xx DM.”
In all honesty, there wasn’t a day you didn’t encounter Draco and it’s been that way for seven long years. Neither of you ever gotten tired of mildly or spitefully bullying each other and neither of you ever dreamed of stopping. He was one of the few constants in your daily life, and you in his. It was like you both lived on annoying the other, and in the midst of all the chaos that you brought to one another; there was a small, teeny, tiny acquaintance - not that either of you would ever admit it. You may have noticed it the time you bet each other ten galleons for who would win in the Triwizard Tournament your fourth year and he bet on Viktor Krum while you on Cedric Diggory. (he’s very much alive i refuse to think otherwise.)
“So you’re telling me, your mother is the reason why you’re not at Durmstrang,” you scoffed. “This whole time I could have been saved four years of headaches.”
“You’re just jealous some of us have more opportunities than others,” he snarks back pompously. “Unlike you, I hardly believe you would be graceful enough to even be considered admission into Beauxbatons.”
You had gone to see the last task of the competition just like the rest of the schools, all packed tightly onto the stands and watching carefully the exit of the maze. Naturally, you had arrived with your own friend groups, but somewhere during the time of sitting there and even being a few rows behind the blond and his minions, the two of you had met in the middle bench after he was trying to prove something wrong to you. 
When Cedric appeared back in front of the stands with the glowing Triwizard cup held high over his head in victory and every Hogwarts student loudly celebrating, you had jumped up from your seat and shook wildly an irked Draco beside you. He roughly shrugged your hands off his stiff shoulder, looking up at you with a sneer that you met with a bright beaming smile.
“Pay up, Malfoy!” You held out your hand towards him, opening and closing your fingers to receive the bet money. “I believe it was ten galleons you owe me.”
He begrudgingly reached into his coat pocket and fished out the coins, counting them defeatedly before tossing them into your palm. “What a waste of galleons.”
“Hey, you made the bet,” you reminded him with a still very bright smile. You shoved the money into your pockets, keeping one of the gold coins in between your fingers, and gave him a small hair ruffle that he harshly recoiled from before you turned to jump back up towards the level of stands your friends were originally sitting at.
“Were you really sitting with Malfoy this whole time?” One of your friends questioned when you reached them, a goading smirk on his face.
“Ooooh, she definitely was,” another friend piped up, wiggling her eyebrows. “They’re obsessed with each other.”
“Shut up,” you smack her arm casually, showing the pair the one gold galleon you were holding. “We are not. I was only sitting with him to get my bet money.”
“Sure,” they drawled in unison, sniggering when you threw your head back in annoyance.
You looked down the rows to see the mop of white hair you just sent into disarray. He was slowly descending the stairs of the stands with Crabbe and Goyle following closely behind him. Almost as if he felt your eyes on his back, he turned back to look at you, his cold gray eyes gazing into yours. It was like everything around you went quiet, the only thing in your focus was him and all you could do was stare back. It wasn’t until your friends started stifling laughter and whispering “aww’s” that you snapped out of the short-lived and odd few second trance you were in. He waited for you to do something before he turned back around, and you did - by holding up both hands; the one golden galleon on your left and your middle finger on your right, grinning to yourself when he rolled his eyes throwing you the finger right back before he finally disappeared into the mob of people below.
You were briskly walking down the corridors, books held tightly to your chest with your friend at your side while you made your way to Advanced Potions with Slughorn after Snape finally made his way into the DADA position. It was an easy class, potions being something you had a knack for and it gave you enough leisure to mess with your “favorite” Slytherin who shared it with you. 
“Look there goes your boyfriend,” your friend teases, elbowing your upper arm roughly and nodding her head down towards the hall to the tall blond appearing around the corner and entering swiftly into the class.
“He’s not my boyfriend,” you hiss. “I’m tired of everyone saying that. I hate him and he hates me, end of story.”
“You know when you say you hate him, it just sounds like the opposite,” she says tauntingly. “Besides, hate is a strong word and very misplaced. Maybe, it’s just years of built-up tension that both of you have been too nervous to do anything about.”
“Tension? Yeah, I want to strangle him,” you laugh to yourself at the thought.
“Not that tension, idiot,” she shakes her head, “I mean sexual tension...clearly.”
You gave her a horrified look mixed between being disgusted and being offended. You held your hand over your mouth and pretended to gag as dramatically as you could. “I am appalled that you would even say that. I would rather be locked in a room with Filch and Peeves and hear them argue and fight all day than to be with Malfoy like that.”
“Come on, think about it,” she encourages, stopping the two of you a little ways away from the classroom. “You guys 'hate' each other?” She finger quotes the hate, looking at you with a raised eyebrow. “When you hate someone, you don’t go out of your way to talk to them every day.”
“It’s not like that,” you wave a hand dismissively. “Also, this isn’t a cliche, this is real life. We hate each other, that is all there is to it.”
You picked up the walk again, your friend to following behind you while letting out a deep and exhausted sigh. You couldn’t help but think about what she said, sure, perhaps at one point you thought Draco was attractive with his bright silver hair, his glittering gray eyes, his little button nose that he would crinkle up every other word he spoke in his charming haughty voice, or the way he’d tower over you in the middle of a conversation gone wrong and he’d be talking lowly to you but all you’d be able to focus on was the sweet scent of apples and cologne that radiated off of him.
“No,” you whispered almost silently to yourself, forcing yourself out of your thoughts and shaking your head from side to side as if it was going to get the image out of your head. He was mean, disrespectful, arrogant, and insulted you daily - even if you both laughed about it or gave props for the perfect jabs.
The first thing your eyes landed on when you walked into the dingy Potions classroom was Draco, his focus trained on the ceiling as if he was deep in thought. Just as his eyes were about to flicker down towards you, and sensing that he was about to, you quickly avoided his gaze and concentrated onto Slughorn who was waiting patiently by his desk with a bubbling cauldron for you and your friend to join the crowd in front of him.
“Great! Now that we’re all here,” Slughorn began excitedly, fixing the sleeves of his robes as he grabbed the ladle in the cauldron and began stirring it while continuing his lecture. 
You were trying to listen, capturing only the professor’s last sentence as he called on someone who raised their hand. All attention was thrown out the window when you realized Draco was standing near said classmate, a look of annoyance suddenly clouding his features when his pale eyes met yours.
“What?” He mouthed. You ignored him, trying to turn your concentration back onto Slughorn but nothing he was saying made sense, and right as you caught a word you did understand, a shuffling and an abrupt arm knocking into yours threw you right back out of the loop.
“Watch it,” you snap hushedly when you notice who it is. “Why are you over here?”
“I can’t say hello to my number one fan?” He whispers back, snickering slightly when you scoffed quietly.
“Fan? Says the one who shoved his way through the crowd to come over here,” you grumble, crossing your arms. 
“I hardly shoved,” he mutters. “I only moved because I couldn’t see Slughorn from where I was standing. Not everything’s about you.”
“Really? Because to me, it seemed like you came over here for my attention.”
He let out a breathy chuckle, a patronizing smile making its way onto his face. The type of typical boy smile where his mouth is half agape with his tongue smoothing over his teeth as he stared off across the room with his fingertips rubbing thoughtfully against his jawline as he thought of what to say. You stood still as he bent down, nearing his mouth towards your ear and whispering hotly, “you wish, darling.”
Slughorn sent everyone to their paired tables, and as everyone began moving and Draco sauntered off away from you, you stood stuck there, shocked with the lingering chills that were sent down your spine from your archnemesis’ comment.
“I told you, you’re into each other,” your friend sang expectantly from behind you, grabbing onto your sleeve and directing the two of you towards your table. 
You were working peacefully at your workspace, cutting up, peeling, and crushing the ingredients that your friend was sliding across the surface to you. In the table behind you was where Draco was working annoyingly quiet, tossing the stripped stems of the roses at you that you had to peel, tiny thorns pricking at your ankles through your socks since the bigger thorns had been taken off for the potion. As payback, you would throw back loose extra pearl dust you ground up, giggling tauntingly when he would frown at you for getting the coarse white powder all over his Italian leather shoes and most definitely inside of them as well.
When you, and seemingly the rest of the class, had finally thrown in all the ingredients and the potion promptly finished brewing, beautiful clouds of white and pink smoke began rising from the cauldrons, each one having a lovely scent of first; freshly pressed high-priced linens, then a faint smell of a brand new racing broom out of a box with a freshly polished wood handle that then quickly transformed into a sweet harvest of apples, green specifically, and finally...
“Ugh, gross,” you pinched your nostrils closed, turning your body around and sending a scowl towards Draco’s way. “Malfoy, we get it, your cologne is expensive, now stop spraying it. I was smelling all these wonderful things and you ruined it.”
He arched an eyebrow at you, looking at you as if you were crazy. “Are you mad? I didn’t spray anything, I think you’ve finally lost it.”
“Well you laid it on too heavy this morning then, it reeks in here.”
“You’re one to talk, Y/L/N. Did you bathe yourself in that dreadful perfume you wear just now? And that ghastly lip shiner thing you use,” He sneers, crinkling up his nose. “I can’t even think straight, I might vomit.”
“Lip shiner? It’s called lip balm, you prat,” you retort, crossing your arms angrily. “Either way, I haven’t used or sprayed anything either so-”
“For Merlin’s sake!” Your friend suddenly exasperated loudly from beside you making you briskly whirl around to look at her, a look of pure annoyance etched onto her face. “Are you two really that daft? Honestly? Have you been paying attention to anything other than each other? For instance, the potion we just made?”
This gained the attention of your classmates around you in the surrounding tables, turning their heads slightly but not obviously with small knowing smirks on their faces while they snickered quietly and listened. It was soundless as you reached towards the book in front of your friend, pulling it painstakingly slow towards you in fear of the words that were written on the open page.
“Amortentia,” you muttered glumly as you read the page, pushing it away from you dejectedly as everything began to click.
“The reason you’re both smelling each other is because you’re what the other desires and is attracted to. Wow, what a revelation! As if the whole school didn’t already know.”
You were afraid to turn around. You could feel the cold and hard pair of eyes burning holes onto your back and the immediate amount of whispers and giggles of the people around you. Luckily, Slughorn was busy at the other end of the room, working diligently with another pair of students who managed to mess up their potion. 
“That’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard,” Draco announces finally.
“What’s so ridiculous about it?” You questioned, your heart falling to the pit of your stomach when you turned again and took notice of the way his lips were curling upwards as if it was the most disgusting thing he could have ever heard.
“Think about it, Y/L/N,” he deadpans. “Why would I ever desire someone like you?”
There had been occasions over the years when you were in this situation. None as drastic and as revealing, but there would be times when friends and others would poke fun and say the exact same thing your friend told you earlier. The usual, “they got the hots for each other!” and you would always brush it off and joke about how you could never, and he’d do the same. It was always amongst laughs and jokes, but as you looked at the Slytherin in front of you - there wasn’t a hint of amusement on his hardened face.
“Piss off, Malfoy,” you seethed, biting down hard on your lip to refrain from lashing out either in tears or in insults, you couldn’t decide. “If I’m so revolting, leave me alone from now on, I mean it.”
“I never said that,” he argues. “You’re just simply not my type.”
For some eerie, awful reason, the words tore into you like a sharpened knife going easily through butter. You were used to his insults, his mocking, his comments about your appearances - but this hurt, and you couldn’t explain why. You thought, for a second, possibly, that maybe your friend was right. Maybe there was a hidden attraction you had for the platinum blond that you buried deep away and one that he had for you. There was no way that was the case now, not at all. 
And for the first time in your life, you couldn’t be more sure of a simple little fact.
You hated him.

You don’t know how long you spent sitting in Moaning Myrtle’s bathroom, back against the cold tiled wall with your knees brought up to your chest. Your friends had tried to console you after the public rejection and humiliation, but their words only made you feel worse. You felt silly for being so bothered about being rejected by Malfoy, he wasn’t exactly someone you fancied, to begin with.
After dinner, you went off the grid and found yourself where you’re now sitting. The ghostly girl flew restlessly around you, popping out of her stall now and then to chat but then going back into her abyss of nothing when she learned you were still upset. You noticed it made her a little too pleased, considering the fact it was always her who was miserably wailing about her problems in the bathroom. She tried to hide it and let you talk to her about how you felt, but she gave terrible advice most of the time. 
“Well, if it was me, I would have never started fancying someone who was mean to me,” she mumbled. “Like when Paul Wighorn made fun of my hair for a whole year and laughed when I cried. I hated his guts then and I still do now.”
She had a point, but she was also Myrtle. Nothing about the overly dramatic ghost made sense.
“I don’t fancy him, It’s just weird,” you trail off. “I can’t imagine a day without him, even if he is a complete arse. We always joked about how we hated each other, but I didn’t think he actually meant it, I guess.”
“I think you do fancy him, though,” she whispers knowingly in your ear, making you flinch from her cold draft. “Stop denying it, it’ll only keep making you feel worse. Amortentia doesn’t lie, silly. Maybe when you drink it, but before that, all real feelings are there, whether you know it or not.”
You sat quietly, taking in her words before something came crashing down onto you like a wall of bricks.
“I suppose that means he’ll have to stop denying it too,” she adds thoughtfully. 
“Myrtle,” you rush to get up, smoothing your hair down profusely and fixing the wrinkles in your clothes. “You’re a genius.”
“I am?” She asks excitedly. “What did I say?”
You waved her off, giving her another thank you before rushing out of the bathroom and into the empty corridors. You were trying to go back to your dorm to sleep, hoping that when tomorrow came you would be bold enough to confront the Slytherin Prince but it was thirty minutes past curfew, something you didn’t notice until you were bustling down the steps in a rush and came face to face with the man of the hour himself doing his Prefect patrolling duties.
“Go to your dorm, Y/L/N,” he sneers. “I’ll take away house points, don’t test me,”
“I don’t believe you.”
“That I’ll take away house points? Watch me. Five-”
“No, you twat,” you groan, swatting his arm with your hand. “I don’t believe that I’m not your type.”
He stayed wordless for a moment, biting the inside of his cheeks and clenching his jaw as he peered down at you from his lanky height. “Why not?”
“Because I didn’t think you were my type until the amortentia made me aware of it,” you answer quietly. “Actually, my friend had a hand in it, but it was mostly the potion.”
Silence, again. Still and deadly. You could hear the large clocks around the school tick and tock, the hundreds of paintings snoring peacefully or chattering quietly. You avoided looking up at the boy in front of you, all of a sudden feeling small under his gaze until you felt cold fingers brush against your cheekbone and then softly through your hair causing you to finally look up into the soft wandering almost blue eyes. 
“I didn’t find out with the amortentia,” he muttered almost reluctantly as if it was the most difficult thing he had to reveal. “I’ve known I’ve liked you for a while.”
“How long is a while?” You curiously wonder aloud.
“I’m not telling,” he smirks. “Perhaps you’ll figure it out one day.”
Both hands came up to rest on your cheeks, slightly cold but soft and tender. It sent chills throughout your body as he took a step closer to you and then closer, backing you carefully into the diagonally ascending stone wall that went in the direction of the stairs. Your breathing was getting uneven, you noticed the way you accidentally switched to manually forcing yourself to inhale and exhale normally when he leaned down with his face now being mere centimeters from yours. It was torture, having your eyes closed and feeling the way his nose was brushing against yours, minty breath warm against your lips as he ghosted over them with his. He was so close, you smelt everything that was in the damn potion that got you here. It sent flutters of warmth down your body, trickling down and seeping deeply into every bone in your body as if this is was the remedy its been needing. This is what you’ve been missing.
When you finally felt a soft pair of lips being pressed into yours, it felt almost unreal that you were there. It was awkward the first couple of seconds, both of you wondering how in the world had you gotten yourselves in this position, but after you relaxed and he found his Prince of Slytherin confidence - it was magic. His lips moved languidly against yours, affectionately and full of longing. He kept his hands on your cheeks, still timid to move anywhere else while you kept yours resting lightly on his sides. It scared you a little, how fast and how easily you melted into each other, like if this was something you’ve been doing with him for years rather than torment the other for laughs. 
You hated the feeling when he pulled away, a gust of freezing castle air passing through the space between you and cooling your lips and face from his contact. His hands dropped down to his sides and he looked down at you with a small smile, a teeny bit smug, but happy. You wanted to feel the same way, but a question still loomed over your head, overpowering the giddiness you were vividly feeling.
“Why did you lie earlier?” You question softly, directing your gaze to the floor. “In class, I mean.”
He thought about his answer for a second, sighing deeply when he realized he had to uncover more truths about himself to you. You took a mental observation at that, he didn’t like to talk about feelings. “You didn’t say anything. Didn’t even look at me. I thought I’d beat you to it and reject you before you could reject me.”
“What made you think I’d reject you?” You coaxed. “Other than the fact that I made you a sworn enemy at eleven.”
“Exactly that,” he laughed lightly. “You’re unpredictable, Y/N.”
You smiled to yourself at the realization that he finally used your first name. “So are you, Draco.”
“Not really,” he grins. “Like in just a few moments, for example, I’m going to start snogging you.”
You opened your mouth to encourage him but shut it quickly when he closed the space between the two of you again, this time much closer than he was before. He was flush against you, and when you say you could feel everything; you could feel everything. You were almost begging for him to lean down and kiss you again by the time you felt his hands on you again, running delicately around the exposed skin of your hips when your shirt hiked up an inch on accident. He leaned down again, and with the advantage of his lowered height, you let your hands slide up his arms, biceps, and ultimately the nape of his neck where your fingers continued up into his hair. The breathiest gasp escaped his throat as you tugged at the ends gently, smirking to yourself when he closed his eyes in delight at the touch.
His lips came down onto your fast this time and hastily, pressing himself impossibly closer into you. You could feel his grip tighten against your hips, his hold moving upwards onto your waist as he continued to kiss you fervently. His teeth bit down softly on your bottom lip and you wasted no time in parting them slightly for his tongue to meet yours. You tugged at the platinum strands of hair again, feeling triumphant when a low groaning sound emitted from his throat at the sensation as he tilted his head to deepen the kiss further.
You knew you were done for when one of his hands slowly slid up your upper body, stopping first at your collarbones with warm fingertips fluttering over the skin, before he moved it upwards completely and he now had his large hand wrapped comfortably around your neck. You gasped in delight into the kiss, a swarm of butterflies going directly to your lower stomach as he squeezed against the artery in your neck meticulously, the coldness from his Malfoy family crest ring only adding fuel to the fire. He tore his mouth away from yours with his hand still clutched firmly around your throat and you were almost sent into orbit with the look he was giving you. A look filled with desire, adoration, and intensity - his pale gray eyes were much darker, almost a dark blue that resembled the starry night sky on a summer night.
Lips reattached themselves roughly and feverishly against your jawline, peppering long and tender kisses all the way towards your ear and then down towards your collarbones where he was beginning to undo the rest of the top buttons of your school dress shirt. You felt him smile against your hot skin when you’d writhe underneath him, emitting weak whimpers that you couldn’t hold back that he ended up having to clasp a free hand over your mouth as he whispered into your ear to stay quiet.
It didn’t matter that you were in the middle of a poorly lit corridor where anyone could walk past and see the frenzy that was unfolding, nor did it matter to Draco that his Prefect duties were long forgotten. Your friend was right, and everyone else for that matter; it wasn’t hate you felt for the blond at all, it was years and years of a craving and a hidden yearning packed with displaced tension.
And now, you were both exactly where you wanted to be; together.

Pranked You ;) {Colby Brock}
Request: Hello sweetie! I was wondering if you could do a story where the reader and Colby aren't dating YET but there is yah know, chemistry and tension. But one day sam decided to pull a prank on Colby and it involved EVERYONE. So basically he makes it seem like he woke up in a different world or something where stuff is different. For example: him and reader are dating (you can choose whatever other stuff happens, lol) but once Colby figures out the prank, he pulls reader aside. They have a small argument before reader blows off on him, in which he says "I've never wanted to kiss you as badly as I do know" and that's how they admit their feelings! Thank you! And can't wait to see what you write love
A/N: Hi! Thank you so much for your request, sorry for the wait, I have been very busy with school and work. I hope the wait is worth it though! Get ready for a long imagine, I’m pretty sure this is about 3,000 words. I hope you love it! I just realized that I tried to keep this imagine gender neutral but I forgot that I accidentally put some she/her pronouns in it, I’m so sorry!
Warnings: Angsty, Cussing, Mentions of alcohol, implied smut
------------------------------------------------------------
It was just like any other day for you. You woke up around noon because you were exhausted from the day before. Between working, going to college, and trying to keep somewhat of a social life, everyone could see just how worn out you would get day to day. So today you decided to treat yourself with a few extra hours of this beautiful thing called sleep.
Your phone rest on the bedside table and of course checking it and replying to the unread messages was the first step of your morning routine. The first messages you saw were from the group chat that consisted of you, Kat, and Tara. Apparently, while you were sleeping, Tara and Kat had a whole conversation about a girl’s day that they wanted to plan for you three. The last text sent was from Kat and it read, “I can’t wait for y/n to see all these messages in the morning. We planned the best girl’s day while she was probably passed the fuck out in her bed lmao”.
You smiled sending them a text back alerting them that you are indeed alive and down for all the plans they had created. In fact, you would be seeing them later at Sam and Colby’s place for a couple’s dinner/pool/movie date night. Jake would be there as well, and although you were tragically single, you loved all of them to death and hanging out over there was like the most elite sleepovers you would have with your best friends as a child.
A new text appeared on your screen just as you began to emerge from the comfort of your bed sheets, “God finally you’re awake. I’ve been waiting for Kat to tell me you answered her message all morning. I need your help tonight with a prank. Colby is never going to see it coming”
“A prank? I thought you guys didn’t do that anymore...? But I’m in ;)” You sent back. Out of all the trap girls and all the boys, Colby and you got along the best. Ever since you first met, which was years ago at this point, Colby and you have been inseparable. You tried so hard to avoid your feelings for him, in hopes to not develop a crush that ended up ruining your friendship, but Kat picked up on it right away. She told you constantly that she could easily set you up with the beautiful blue-eyed boy, but you insisted that things would happen naturally if there was truly something there between the two of you. And so, you went on, day by day, falling helplessly in love with the sweetest boy you have ever come to know.
Sam sent a message telling you to head over to their place as soon as possible. You swore that you basically lived there already. You were at their house way more than you were at your own. You couldn’t imagine living further than 15 minutes from them. After what felt like a century to Sam, you arrived at the house. Your hand loudly knocking on the big wooden door.
“Hey y/n! How are you?” Kat asked, pulling you into a big hug as she opened the door. You smiled and hugged back at her kind gesture, “I’m good! How are you? Do you know anything about this prank on you know who?” You questioned her. She glared at you, silently telling you to lower your volume. “Y/n! Colby is right upstairs be quiet!” She whispers, laughing at you almost blowing their cover immediately upon arrival.
Kat was quick to take you by the arm and drag you to the theater room where Sam was already sitting on one of the opulent red couches. He greeted you, telling you that he wanted to film your reaction to him telling you what prank you were going to pull. You agreed and sat down on the sofa facing the blonde. “Colby’s taking a nap right now upstairs because he was up super late last night editing one of our Sam and Colby videos. I figured we could use his exhaustion to our advantage and try and prank him that he woke up in some sort of alternate universe. I figured you could go into his room and set up a couple cameras, and I’ll keep two hidden in the living room where me, Kat, Jake, and Tara will be, so we hopefully get his full reaction. I want you to sneak into his bed and like cuddle him or something and when he wakes up, I want you to pretend that you’ve been dating him for a long time now. He is going to be super confused but just try and convince him that it’s true. If he ends up downstairs, we will go along with it too. I really want to see if he will think that it’s real after a while.” Sam explained.
You felt your face burning as your cheeks became a deep shade of red. He couldn’t be serious right? He wanted you to pretend that you were dating Colby? “I- Uh… I don’t know Sam won’t that be a really mean prank?” You tried to play it off, hoping that you didn’t just annihilate all your efforts to keep your feelings hidden. “You guys are like best friends, I don’t think he could be mad at you for such an innocent prank.” Sam replied. You began to feel incredibly flustered at the thought of having to be so affectionate with Colby. The room started to feel like a sauna as the sweat began accumulating all over your body.
Sure, you and Colby had cuddled before, but it was extremely platonic… Plus, it only happened in very specific moments, like last Wednesday after you had a couple of drinks, and everyone was sat watching a movie where he wrapped his arm around you so you could rest your head since it could barely hold itself up. You snapped out of your thoughts quickly realizing that Sam had been waiting on a response from you. You knew Sam was stubborn, he wouldn’t take ‘no’ for an answer. Your eyes met back with his and the only thing you could get yourself to do was slightly nod your head ‘yes’.
“Perfect.” Sam smirked, getting up to turn off the camera and hand it to you so you could set it up in Colby’s room. You already knew that he was thinking about how many points this would score him for a Sam and Colby prank war if it turns out the way he is wanting.
Before you knew it you had made it all the way up into Colby’s room where you had strategically hidden the camera, facing it towards the sleeping boy in his bed. You let out a deep sigh, trying to prepare yourself for what was about to go down. “If this ruins everything for me, I am going to kill you Golbach.” You whispered, knowing the deep sleeper wouldn’t hear a single thing. And so, the prank began.
You took a gentle hold of the silky black sheets and quietly slipped into bed right next to Colby. There was no game plan in your mind, you didn’t even think up a storyline about your fake relationship for once he woke up. You squeezed your eyes shut in fear as you quickly wrapped your body around his, resting your head under his chin as he slept on his back. He twitched slightly, bringing his arm up, lazily holding you back. The breath caught in your throat, this was already hard enough for you and now he is cuddling you back? You glanced up to see his face, his eyelashes were slightly fluttering, and his soft lips had a slight part in them. He was still fast asleep. You decided to try and wake him up by moving around in his arm slightly, hoping the movement would pull him out of his dreams.
“Y/n?” His voice rung through the room, deep and raspy. He sat up slightly, glancing around the dark lair that he called a bedroom, but his arm still remained around your frame. “W-what are you doing here?” He stuttered, visibly confused by the sight of you in his arms.
“What? I can’t cuddle my boyfriend?” You answered, shocked that you could even get those words to come out of your mouth. His eyes widened at your response, pure shock etched into his face. “Boyfriend?” You felt his heart start to race as he replied.
His arm dropped from your body as he delicately pushed himself out of bed. He was now hovering over you as he stood by the bedside table. There was a clear glass with some water sitting on a coaster on the table. His strong hand wrapped around it as he brought it up to his mouth, downing the rest of the water that was in it. You could tell by his body language that he was beyond confused. The glass clinked as he practically dropped it back onto the nightstand.
“Am I dreaming or something? Since when was I your boyfriend?” His eyebrows furrowed as he continued to look at you for some answers. Your heart sunk thinking about how mean of a prank this truly was, at least from your point of view. “Baby… Are you serious? We’ve been together for years now, are you feeling okay?” You said as you threw your legs over the side of the bed, pulling his hand into your own.
Your thumb gently rubbed circles onto the back of his hand, but only for a couple seconds before he pulled it away. “Is this a fucking prank or something?” He asked, irritation evident from his tone. You shook your head ‘no’, it was becoming hard to process words. You knew this was upsetting him, but Sam had you promise to make the prank last for as long as you could.
“I’m sorry- I have to get out of here really quick.” Colby said, making his way out the bedroom door. You said nothing back, hoping that Sam would end the prank for you as Colby made his way down the stairs.
“Hey brother! You’re finally up. Where’s y/n? I thought we were all doing a couples movie night?” Jake interrogated as Colby glanced to see Sam, Kat, and Tara standing over in the kitchen. Colby brought his hand up to his face rubbing his eyes, there’s no way that Jake is saying this too. Colby began to think that he was seriously going crazy. And then everyone else joined in on the conversation. You could hear them loudly as you stayed glued to Colby’s bed.
Sam began to ask if Colby was feeling alright, and you heard Kat say that maybe we should take Colby to the hospital in case he was losing his memory. You felt the panic in Colby rise as he was deflecting everyone’s concern insisting that he wasn’t losing his memory, and that he definitely wasn’t going crazy. He knew for a fact that you two weren’t dating, and none of them could convince him otherwise. “Dude, she’s gonna hear you up there. You’re going to break her heart. You really don’t remember?” Sam pushed.
You finally had enough. You raced out of Colby’s room and rushed down the stairs. You stopped immediately upon entering the kitchen, seeing everybody else still standing there surrounding Colby. The energy switched as they all looked to you, Sam pleading with his eyes for you to keep going. “I’m so sorry Colby, it was just a prank, please don’t be upset.” You couldn’t handle it any longer, the pain on his face was too much for you to bear. You watched as he scoffed back, “I knew it. Fuck you, guys. I’m going back upstairs.”
You felt horrible as you watched him stomp back up to his room, slamming the door shut behind him. Tears stung the back of your eyes, this was all your fault. You excused yourself from the group and somberly made it to Colby’s door. You preceded to place a faint knock on the wood, “Colby? I’m so sorry, can you please open up?” Your voice was so soft, it would’ve been hard for him to hear if he hadn’t already anticipated your arrival. The door swung open as Colby quickly made his way back over to where he previously sat on the couch.
You stayed frozen at the door for a couple seconds, hoping to brace yourself for the angry boy inside. You took hold of the cold metal doorknob, pulling the door shut behind you. You tip-toed your way over to the sofa and took a seat far from Colby. Your mind was running a hundred miles an hour as you tried to concoct a coherent sentence. “What the hell were you thinking? Did you seriously think that I would find this funny?” He spat in your direction.
“It wasn’t my prank, Sam just wanted me to help him out.” You said back, desperately trying to reason with him. He sarcastically laughed, running a hand through his dark hair. “I didn’t ask who’s prank it was y/n.”
You gulped, it felt suffocating in his room. The dark ambiance that normally felt inviting suddenly seemed like your own personal hell. “Colby, I didn’t want to hurt you I swear. I was trying my best to keep everything lighthearted. I could never hurt you.” Your voice was so delicate, it was so hard to speak. The tears were still threating to make an appearance, and that was the last thing you wanted.
“But you did, y/n. That’s the thing. Whether or not you ‘meant’ to hurt me, you did. And everyone else was in on it to. Did you even try and tell Sam that this prank wasn’t a good idea? Did you even think, for a split second, that this was incredibly immature? You were all treating me like I was losing my damn mind, trying to convince me that we were dating when we clearly never were.”
His words hurt, but they were all true. You had never been together, what were you thinking pretending like you were? All to satisfy Sam? To help him get a head start on the prank wars by completely crushing Colby’s heart? He is your best friend for crying out loud. “Look Colby. I never wanted to do this, okay? Did you ever stop and think that maybe I didn’t want to be doing this either? You mean everything to me. Why would I ever purposely hurt you? Especially after everything we have been through. All the ups and downs, the messy breakups, all the fights. I love you so god damn much and I hope you know that I would never, ever, hurt you like that.” By this point the tears were streaming down your face. Your previous spot on the couch was long discarded as you now stood right in front of Colby, praying that he knew you were being serious about not hurting him.
Your eyes searched his for any glimpse of a sign showing that he believed you. His bright blue eyes looked a lot more intimidating than usual. You couldn’t tell what he was thinking, his expression not giving you any clues. Finally, he responded, “Is it wrong that I’ve never wanted to kiss you as badly as I do right now?”
And finally, there was your sign. His eyes no longer looked intimidating. In fact, they had completely changed into something much different, lust. You quickly took a step closer to him as he took a stand right in front of you, placing his strong hands on either side of your face. He roughly pulled you in, causing your lips to crash together with loads of passion. They fit perfectly together, better than you ever imagined them. They worked in sync as the feeling inside of you was igniting a fire. He was so rough, but surprisingly still gentle. Acting as if one wrong move would completely break you. Your lips remained locked as he pushed you backwards, surprising you as your back made contact with his plush bed. He was on top of you, hungrily continuing the kiss.
You both pulled apart abruptly, gasping for air after your heavy make out session. “I guess now’s a good time to let you know that I am absolutely, one hundred percent, in love with you.” You stated, starring deep into his eyes. “Then I guess now’s a good time to tell you that I feel the same.” He responded, bringing you back in for another passionate kiss. You pulled back again, “So, does this mean I can finally see those handcuffs I keep hearing about in action?” You asked him, slightly laughing. “Only if you promise to keep quiet.” He winked back. And that was the start of your amazing, long awaited relationship.

Tumblr media
Two weeks.
It’s been two weeks since you joined Sean’s Among Us stream.
While that was your first public appearance, you had joined three others after that and already you were blowing up on almost every social media platform you had. The attention was kind of nice, you had to admit, but sometimes the anxiety of becoming a public figure weighed heavily on your shoulders.
During that time, you turned to your friends who were used to such scrutiny: Sean, Felix, and now Corpse, who you’ve been talking to every day for those two weeks.
It was another one of those nights where, at 1am, you were on Facetime with said man. His screen was dark, as usual. He hadn’t shown his face yet and you respected that. You didn’t need to see him to talk to him, or be his friend, or develop a slight crush on him. All of which you did.
The call was relatively silent on your end. Corpse was on Facetime with you, yes, but he was also on a call in Discord, once again playing Among Us.
You often wondered if playing that game was all your new friends did anymore.
You stayed quiet, letting Corpse play the game and avoiding his fans finding out about your call. You had college work to finish anyways, so the silence was rather helpful.
“We should ask Y/N if she wants to play. I wanna meet her.” Sykkuno’s voice rang out from the Discord call. He was right- you’d never met him. He and Corpse seemed extremely close, though, so you’d love to talk to him. A friend of your crush friend was a friend of yours.
“She’s busy tonight.” Corpse responded.
“Yeah, she’s got an exam coming up- wait, how do you know?” Sean joined in, questioning Corpse.
“Uh, I mean we’re on Facetime right now, I guess.” Your heart sped up- now his fans knew. “She’s studying. We’re just hanging out.”
“Didn’t you guys ‘hang out’ last night as well? It seems like you’re trying to take my best friend away from me.” Sean joked back.
“I mean, I definitely am.”
Your breath caught in your throat. What was that supposed to mean? Sean was obviously kidding, but the tone in Corpse’s voice wasn’t the one he used when he was joking as well.
Felix suddenly butted in. “Ooooh, I think Corpse-y has a little crush.”
“And if I do?”
Y/N.exe has stopped working.
꧁꧂
Three weeks, now, that you’ve been talking to Corpse daily.
One week since Corpse’s crush comment and one week that you’ve endured countless mentions and tags on Instagram and Twitter, constantly talking about #CorpseY/N.
You didn’t really mind the shipping, often losing yourself in daydreams about driving those two hours down from your apartment in Los Angeles down to San Diego and running into his arms. It didn’t help when he mentioned wanting you to come visit one day.
You just worried about how Corpse felt about them. He was still relatively new to blowing up on the internet as well, his fame suddenly skyrocketing in the past few months, so you weren’t sure if he was comfortable with them. You didn’t want to bring it up, either, fearing that the discussion would make things awkward between the two of you.
For now, you were rather content with just scrolling through the #CorpseY/N hashtag, looking at the pictures and nice things people had to say about you both.
“they’re so cute when they talk to each other, you can just tell Corpse meant it when he said he was trying to steal Y/N away.”
“#CorpseY/N is my new favorite thing. Everyone shut up this is all I’ll be talking about from now on.”
“God why can’t they just be together already? #CorpseY/N”
Everyone was so supportive and sweet, it almost made you feel like you already were Corpse’s girlfriend. Although your heart hurt when you were brought back to reality, you couldn’t help but love the comments that everyone left. They were amazing.
Until they weren’t.
There are always two sides of the same coin. Along from the supporters and their loving actions, there were also those who seethed at the idea of you and Corpse.
They scrutinized everything about you to the point that you made your Instagram account- already with 30k followers- private.
Haters talked about you. Your body, your personality, how you weren’t worthy to even talk to Corpse and the rest of the Youtubers, and so much more. You’ve spent many nights with your Facetime mic muted so that Corpse couldn’t hear the small sobs coming from you.
These thoughts were almost always on the back of your mind, but you were sometimes able to push them away.
Like now- as you focused on your exam. Well, tried to focus. There comes to be a time where one can only hear so many negative things about themselves before they can’t ignore it anymore.
But alas, you tried your hardest and finished your exam, before walking out of the room and pulling out your phone. Now, you had a break before your new classes started and you’ve never been more relieved. You pulled up a certain contact and clicked on the message icon, beginning to type.
you:
i’m finished! up next, a break.
corpse:
I hope you did well. How long is your break?
you:
two weeks!
corpse:
Come spend it in San Diego
You stopped in your tracks, taken aback by the offer. You really didn’t think that he’d invite you over, but you weren’t about to complain. Instead, you sent back an ‘I’ll pack tonight :)’ and rushed home to do just that.
Corpse called you as you packed, just like he calls every night. You were used to the routine now, often falling asleep around 3am as he stays on the phone, doing whatever he does with his ruined sleep schedule until you wake up and say good morning.
Tonight, however, you were too jittery to sleep. You stayed up all night with Corpse, talking about anything and everything, like usual.
What wasn’t usual, though, was how distracted he sounded. It made you nervous- was he having second thoughts about inviting you over? Was something wrong?
Your thoughts nearly overwhelmed you, forcing you to say something.
“Are you okay, Corpse?” You tried to hide the small shake in your voice.
“Hm? Uh, yeah, yeah, everything’s good. Why?”
“It doesn’t sound like it. What’s going on? You’re acting off.”
His side of the phone was silent for a moment, before he let out a sigh. “I’m just thinking about what I’ve got to do before you get here tomorrow. Like, cleaning and stuff.”
“Pshh, that doesn’t matter to me.” You waved your hand, even though he couldn’t see it in the darkness of your room.
“It’s just that, my apartment isn’t… the best. It’s small and there’s only one bedroom and it’s kind of shitty. I just don’t want it to be even more shitty.”
“Corpse, I’m coming there to spend time with you, not your apartment. I don’t care what any of that shit looks like. I’m going to be looking at you and hanging out with you. Not your apartment.” You didn’t mean to go on a tangent of reassurance, but you truly meant all of your words. “Hell, I might not even see the apartment because I already know I won’t be able to look away from you.”
“I- God, give me a minute. That took me off guard.” He laughed. “But thank you. I may not even be able to clean because I’ll be distracted too.”
“By what?”
“You, standing in front of me, in person.” You could hear the smile in his voice. “That’s a fucking dream come true.”
