Always Be My Favorite

Y/N x NCT Vampire AU

Y/N, an ancient vampiress and seductress, has had many mortals fall for her. The exuberance of her presence and manner draws attention instantly. It is nigh impossible not to be allured.

The young men of the Neo Clan were no different. Like others before them, they began their courtship with Y/N thinking they had the upper hand. Well, they were young and impressionable, of good lineage and bloodline. They're up for the challenge to court the Queen of the Night.

Little do they know…  The ending has been set from the beginning; no one courts the Queen. She reigns over all and will never be reigned in by any other. Her heart was stone and her feelings only a mimicry. But still, she is willing to play the game.

The beginning of courtship is always so exciting. Fast, intense, passionate, dripping love. It is intoxicating, it is addictive.

It leaves the Neos wanting more.

They become restless as they start to yearn more for Y/N. She draws them in, like the moon to the waves. It's a listless wait for the Neos as Y/N starts her game of cat and mouse. They could only but dance alone at night in the moonlight, in inexhaustible passion. They could only await for Y/N to give in return to them what they had so willingly given to her.

Desperation is unseemly and unbecoming of fine young men.

But the taste of her nectar is like poison; it entraps them in a bind to her. It makes them thirst and keen for more.

It is toxin and hurts them so. It burns and tears and rips them apart. But they've abandoned reason. Nothing else matters, as long as they belonged to Y/N. Nothing else could satisfy their soul. They will love her and yearn for her and will want to hurt even more relentlessly, just so they could remain with her. But they understood the price for wanting her and remains steadfast, without regrets.

They are withering, the boys of the Neo Clan; trapped in a cage of deception and desperation. But they don't see a cage, no. They see it as love, admiration, desire... a sacrifice for a melancholic lover.

They are fading away — like a last song. Their adoration for Y/N is impressive. She takes and takes, yet they give and give.

“You promise me forever?” They ask her, nightly.

Y/N lies through her teeth, “Yes.”

She sees them withering; their souls fleeting, fading. They may not last the night.

Maybe it is their devotion to her; so unconditional and loyal. Maybe it was the fading song in their souls. But it tugged at her desolate heart.

She asks them if they knew she was danger. They knew. Yet they still stayed.

“I give you my everything and I give myself away with no regrets. That is how I have come to love you.

You, my Queen, who hurts and pains me with not a sharp knife, but a dulled and blunt one, morphed in your lies and deception. It hurts more and I bleed endlessly. But I see past that for I see a sadness in your beauty and pain in your eternity.

I may not last the dawn for I know you are killing me and death awaits come sunrise. I will leave you and you will be alone once more my Queen.

But that does not terrify you in one bit, does it? No, for you have never needed anyone. You have taken from every last one of us in our clan, and left us with dust.

We, nay, I — love you still. Forever, you'll always be my favorite everything.”

Y/N smiles. Loving to their last breaths, these Neo boys.

In the horizon, dawn breaks. A last shuddering breath was heard, leaving his body an empty husk. Then came the wind and it sweeps the ashes away.

Y/N gives a solemn sigh before she retreats back into her castle, stilettos clicking against the stone floors.

Maybe in another life, will she finally understand the reason why she'll always be their favorite.

The Queen of Hellfire

Yes I'm writing an Eddie story, sue me. This is just gonna be a soft moment type of deal. No smut, very little fluff. So yeah get ready for that.

Eddie Munson x magic OC Character (Basically at the end you'll see and we're gonna get a happy ending) The OC is 18 btw guys. No one dies in this, not even Max. I’m changing it all to fit the story. We’re just gonna say that Lucas was able to save her from Vecna again and all was fine and dandy in that sense.

Warnings: Blood, gore, demobats, flesh ripping, spoilers for ST Vol 2, drug use, let me know if I missed anything.

------------------------------------------

Watching Eddie and Dustin interact with each other was like watching two brothers interacting. They had this way of acting around each other that was weird to anyone else. Yet to me, it was normal. I even saw Dustin like my little brother. However, being a senior in high school was difficult as it was and now here I am fighting an evil that has been taking over Hawkins...again.

Loading up the pistols I had bought at the War Zone, I felt a hand on my back, looking up to see Max smiling down at me.

"You know he's in love with you right? Eddie is I mean. Before you tagged along, you were all he could talk about. Talking about how he'd lose you if he went to jail or if he died by these asshole hicks. You should go talk to him. Maybe you can ease his nerves about all this." With a smile, she turned on her heels and went back into the camper van, sliding her headphones back on over her ears.

Having known Eddie for what seemed like forever, was only a couple of years. Moving to Hawkins my junior year of high school (and Eddie's first time repeating senior year) was the beginning of our friendship, Eddie taking one glance at me and immediately asking me to be in the Hellfire Club. Soon, coming to be known as the Queen of Hellfire. Running his campaigns when he's sick and can't attend or just managing certain things during one of the meetings. At times, playing a character just for funsies.

It wasn't unknown that the other members thought that I was dating Eddie already but all assumptions were answered with a simple, 'We're only friends.' Yet in my heart, I always looked at him like I wanted more. I did want more, but I didn't want to risk being kicked out of Hellfire.

Walking over to Eddie, the two boys dropped the makeshift shields and Eddie bent over and ran at Dustin, the two of them play fighting. A small laugh left my chest and Eddie let go of Dustin, standing up and looking at me with that giant smile on his face that made me go breathless.

"Powell...Um Hi...I was just-"

"I knew what you were doing Eddie, I just wanted to talk to you for a moment." He nodded his head and crossed his arms, waiting for me to start talking again.

"Preferably alone if you don't mind." With a silent understanding, Eddie walked alongside me over to the edge of the woods, turning to look at me with a look that made him look ready for bad news.

"Eddie...if shit goes south while we're fighting Vecna. I just need you to know that..." He tilted his head and gave me a concerned look.

"That I'll take over Hellfire...I know how you are Munson and I know that you're gonna try to sacrifice yourself. You don't need to sacrifice yourself."

"Hey, we're both gonna make it out alive sweetheart. Even if we're battered and bruised, we're making it out alive." Sweetheart, that nickname made my heart flip every time no matter how many times I heard it. Just the way he said it was like dripping honey.

He started to walk off and something in me went on autopilot, causing me to grab his wrist, stopping him from walking.

"Wait...Eds...There's something else I need to tell you and I don't know how to tell you. It's something that I've been wanting to tell you for a while but I'm too much of a pussy to do it."

"Well spit it out. Now you have to tell me, you're making this far too interesting."

I could hear my heart in my ears and my stomach dropped to my feet, cementing me to the spot I was in. My breathing got heavier, Eddie grabbing my shoulders, looking me in the eyes. Worry written all over his face.

"Hey if you don't wanna tell you don't have to. I was just joking."

"No, I need to tell you. If something happens to one of us, you need to know. Neither of us can die not knowing how the other feels. God...this was so much easier in my mind and dreams. Okay so...I'm in love with you. Been in love with you since you invited me to Hellfire. There was just something about you, about the way that you carried yourself that attracted me to you. I mean I became the Queen of Hellfire for fuck sake. But Eddie, you have to understand that I don't wanna lose you. I can't lose you. Not after everything we've been through as "friends". I totally understand if you-"

A pair of lips stopped me in my tracks, melting my body into a puddle. A cheer came from behind us, the sound that anyone could tell was one Dustin Henderson.

"Finally! God, I was wondering how long the flirting was gonna last. It was starting to get really gross."

Pulling away from me, Eddie flipped Dustin the bird, smiling wide. Turning back to me, his smile softening, eyes blown out.

"You, my dear little dove, are never leaving me. Not without a fight that is. I mean the king needs his queen yeah? Just make sure when you're fighting this guy, roll a nat 20, you're gonna need it." His reference to the campaign that ended before spring break brought a smile to my face.

"Munson what am I gonna do with you?"

"Well love me I suppose. Anyways, if it's anything, Dustin's had to listen to me blabber on about how beautiful I think you are Julianne. I mean that. You are the most gorgeous girl I have ever laid eyes on. Just the way that you are, the way you look, the way you laugh, the way you talk, the way you touch my arm when you laugh really hard, when you snort from laughing. Julianne you are like my perfect girl and I have no idea why you wanna be around me. Why you wanna be with me. I mean you could have a guy like Harrington but yet you've always stuck with me."

I pouted and looked over to Steve and Robin, giving a soft smile. Steve had tried asking me out a few times but I always denied him. Why have a guy that you don't see that way just because he wants you?

"Eddie...you have always been the one that I wanted. Forever and always. Hold on stay...stay right here."

I kissed his cheek quickly and jogged over to Steve and Robin, giving a quick smile to them.

"I'm not going with you guys into the Creel house." Steve threw his hands up when I broke the news to him.

"Eddie and Dustin are gonna need me if they wanna take on all the Demobats by themselves. I'm gonna be a decoy. I need to be a decoy. I have silencers on these pistols and a shit ton of ammo, I can take em down one by one once you guys get in the house and get to Vecna. I mean once you're in the house, he's gonna know you're in there, me shooting down these damn bats isn't gonna alert him anymore than you guys showing up in his house to kill him."

Robin looked to Steve with a look of 'She's right Steve'. Steve sighing and nodding.

"But on one condition, give em hell"

"Did you think I'd do anything less Steve Harrington? Anyways I gotta keep these two alive, if all goes good I can change the timeline and save all of us some jail time."

Steve nodded, having seen what I can do before. My only concern for me changing the timeline was Eddie being freaked out. Nevertheless, I jogged back over to Eddie, I wrapped my arms around his neck and I pulled him close to me, our foreheads resting against each other.

"So Powell, what's the verdict?"

"I am now a decoy. Just don't get yourself killed, don't do anything stupid, and don't be a hero. You can be a hero when we get back to Hawkins. I promise you can be. You'll see what I mean when we kill this thing."

A glimmer shined across my eyes as I gave him a smirk, Eddie picking me up and spinning me around.

"Not sure how you're gonna do it Powell but I trust you. Just don't get me thrown in jail yeah?"

"Now why would I do that? However, what we are gonna do is go see Police Academy 3 when we get out of here. I hear it's hilarious."

He tilted his head back and looked up at the sky, bitting his bottom lip. Looking back to me, he nodded bringing me in for another kiss.

"Okay yeah we can do that but go...go keep getting ready. We have no idea what this guy is gonna throw at us. We need to be ready for anything."

-Time skip to when everyone is in the upside down-

"Eddie are you ready? We gotta get moving. Dustin plug in the amp. Eddie...for Chrissy."

Eddie gave me a nod, grabbing the pick around his neck, yanking it off.

"Chrissy...this is for you. Ready?!"

"Ready!" Dustin looked back to where the Demobats would be coming from, breathing deeply.

"Ready! Eddie do it now!" My voice yelled to Eddie from the front steps of the trailer.

Starting to play, Eddie let out a yell, fingers moving fast as he played Master of Puppets. I couldn't help but watch in awe of him playing, remembering all the times I went to see him play with his band.

Hearing the flock of demobats rushing to us, I looked out, seeing the giant swarm. My eyes darted to Dustin with a concerned look. Laying my hands on the grips of my pistols, ready to start shooting them out of the sky.

"Julianne! T minus 30 seconds before you start shooting them down, Eddie T minus 50 seconds!" Dustin screamed to us.

I pulled the pistols out and aimed them outwards, up into the sky, letting out a shaky breath. I was either gonna knock a bunch of these fuckers out or I was gonna die trying.

"Julianne start shooting! They're advancing too fast! Eddie T minus 30 seconds!"

So I did just that, shooting one bullet right after the other, watching the bats drop out of the sky but not as many of them falling as I'd have liked.

"T minus 20 seconds Eddie!" My heart dropped as the swarm kept getting bigger and bigger, tensing as Eddie started playing the solo.

"Hey Dustin! I'm not gonna be able to hold these guys off for long! We're gonna have to run at the last possible second!" The nervousness in my voice was evident

"Shit. Eddie T minus 10! We gotta hurry!"

With bats dropping like flies, empty shells and magazines covering the ground, the pistols clicked; I threw them to the side and opened the front door to the trailer.

"T minus 5 seconds.....T minus 1!"

Hearing them come off the roof and scurry into the trailer, I finally let out a breath of relief. Hugging Eddie tight in my arms.

"Eds that was amazing! The way you-" I was cut off by the bats trying to get into the trailer, pushing Dustin to the makeshift rope, pushing him up it.

I started to climb up, flipping upside down and falling from the ceiling onto the mattress below.

"Eddie come on!" Eddie started climbing and then stopped, staring out into the distance towards the front door.

"Eddie don't you fucking dare. I swear to god Eddie if you-" He jumped down and cut the rope, Pushing the mattress out of the way.

"Edward Munson get back here!"

"I'm sorry princess...I have to. For the sake of you and the rest of the group."

My mouth hung open in shock, watching him grab the shield and the spear, running out the door.

"Dustin you stay here. If you follow me, I'm personally grounding you. Do you understand?"

"Absolutely not Julianne. You can't get yourself hurt as well."

"Well that's a risk I'm willing to take yeah?"

I grabbed a chair and pulled it over to the portal, stepping up onto the chair, jumping up into the Upside Down again.

"Eddie! Fuck where did you go?" I ran out the still open door, seeing the swarm of bats following him, ultimately gaining on him.

I started running after him, feeling my eyes well up with tears.

"I'm not gonna let you die on me. Not today Munson, not ever."

Eddie got off the bike and started running, the flock of bats swarming him. Eddie looking around, already seeing his demise.

"Hey fuckers! Over here!" A green glow radiated from my hands as I raised them up, taking control of most of the bats.

"You left me no choice but to do this now Munson. I wasn't gonna do any of this until we all got back to the regular Hawkins." One by one, the rest of the bats, that I hadn’t been able to take control of, started attacking Eddie, knocking him to the ground, ripping at his flesh. One of the bats, wrapping its tail around his neck.

"Eddie! No no no I told myself this wouldn't happen. Fuck!"

I lose focus on the bats that I was slowly suffocating and I run over to Eddie, screaming as the bats bite into me as well. Feeling the flesh rip from my body and the blood start running down my legs, sides, arms, and my back.

"Eddie I'm gonna get us out of here! Just stay close to me"

I stand up and start building up a ball of energy but, with the amount of blood running out of me and the pain surging through my body, I collapse to my knees, bursting the energy outwards, all of the bats falling down to the ground and the ones attacking us get blasted in every direction.

I looked at Eddie who, frankly, was in better condition than me given that we were both viciously attacked and losing blood, giving him a soft smile before collapsing onto my back.

"Julianne? Julianne! Stay with me...Stay with me! Fuck! Powell don't you dare die on me!"

Eddie picked me up and carried me back to the trailer, yelling for Dustin to help him get me through.

"What happened?"

"I don't know man she just started doing some magic shit just like her wizard in our DND campaigns and then tried to save me. Just help me get her through! She needs help."

Dustin climbed up onto the chair and reached through as best as he could, Eddie lifting my arm for Dustin to grab hold of. Dustin, straining to pull me through the portal.

"Eddie grab a chair and help me out here man. I'm only so strong. I can't pull her through like this."

Eddie sighed and set me down gently, walking over and grabbing a chair. Placing it under the portal, picking me back up and trying again to get me through back to Hawkins.

"Almost there, give her a good pull Henderson, you're not gonna hurt her any more than she already is. Just get her back to your side." Dustin nodded, pulling my arms hard, my limp body falling back to the normal Hawkins.

My body landed on the mattress below, Dustin immediately went and grabbed the walkie-talkie, calling for anyone to come to the trailer.

"What's going on Dustin?" Nancy's voice statically called out from the walkie-talkie.

"It's Julianne. Eddie went to go fight the Demobats and she went after him. She got attacked pretty bad. She's losing a lot of blood. We need help now!"

In the corner of the room, Eddie had managed to pull himself back into the normal Hawkins, finding one of his joints and lighting the end with his lighter. Shakily smoking it, his voice finally let words out.

"Nancy, please...I need her. You guys have to get here. She needs to survive and I know you guys know how to do that. I'll be forever in your debt if you do."

In no time, the rest of the group busted in the door, with the exception of Max, Lucas, and Erica. Steve covered his mouth upon walking in and seeing my body.

"Okay...shit. Eddie, you go hide somewhere, we don't have your name cleared yet. We're gonna take her to the hospital. Say she was attacked by an animal on one of her walks, which I mean everyone knows she does. It's like her thing or something." Steve started to spout orders. Eddie nodding, giving me a kiss on my forehead.

"You're gonna be okay love. I promise you're gonna be okay."

Brushing the black hair out of my face, he got up and grabbed Dustin by the back of the neck.

"Where are we going Dustin? You're the one helping me hide."

"Only place secluded enough I can think of is Skull Rock. But I’m pretty sure that if we take you there, that could be the first place that these assholes are gonna go looking for you. That is where Patrick died after all.”

He nodded, biting at his nails, taking another puff of his joint. His unoccupied hand rubbing over his face and trying his best to wipe away the tears that littered his dirty cheeks.

Meanwhile, Steve loaded my body up in his car and started speeding to the hospital. Thinking up a lie that he and the rest of the crew could tell to trick them into thinking that I was really on a walk through the woods and got attacked.

“Steve…we gotta get cleaned up or something. I mean we’re all disgusting, Julianne more so than the rest of us. Don’t you think they’re gonna be suspicious of the fact that our friend is near death and we’re also covered in dirt and blood? Nancy you’re on my side right?” Robin called from the back of the car, her fingers attempting to untangle my hair from all the gunk that was intertwined in it from the upside down.

“You have a point Buckley but frankly that’s a risk we’re gonna have to take. She’s our friend…my best friend that actually has graduated, no offense to you Robin.”

Robin nodded, defeated by the fact that they could get locked up for something that they didn’t even do to me. Robin leaned down and pressed her forehead against mine, sniffling quietly.

“Wait…Doesn’t her mom work at the hospital? I mean she knows about the upside down and all the shit that we’ve been through. How many times has she stitched us back up from the crazy shit that we’ve endured. Anyways, she knows about her powers. Don’t you think that maybe her mom is the type to keep it under wraps and off the books?”

See this is why Nancy was always one of my favorite people, why I always hung out with her. She was smart and always coming up with a plan that, though crazy, always worked. She looked to Steve and pointed off to the side to a payphone, directing him to pullover so she could use it.

Within seconds, Nancy had dialed my moms work number and was already explaining what we had all been through.

The thing about my mom was that, no matter what other people thought, she probably thought the opposite. My mom loved Eddie and had since i met him and started playing DnD with him. She loved Steve like her own son, Nancy and Robin were like my sisters with how much my mom had invited them over for dinner and for family events. I already knew when Nancy told my mom how hurt I had gotten, the smug look on her face had disappeared, her heart had sank and she was close to dropping the phone, but held on to avoid suspicion from her coworkers.

“She’s got a room for us, told me for us to just drive there. She’ll handle everything.”

The rest of the gang nodded in agreement, all silently praying that nothing goes wrong and that I don’t die on the way there.

“Dustin…So how long have you known that Julianne was all magic and shit?”

Eddie followed behind Dustin, buggering him every once in a while with questions.

“Well as long as I’ve known her so like sixth…seventh grade. When she came into Nancy’s life that’s kinda when she came into most of our lives. Don’t really think she was a resident of Hawkins before that. Are you still confused on the fact that she’s got cool ass powers?”

Eddie stopped in his tracks and threw his hands up. Grabbing Dustin’s shoulder and turning him around.

“Obviously Henderson. You think you know someone and then they start doing actual magic. Like fake magic…DnD magic. I can’t wrap my head around it. I mean don’t get me wrong-“

“It was cool as shit. Yes I know Eddie. You’ve said it about a million times by now and we’ve barely made our way to Skull Rock. i really feel like this is a conversation that you need to have with Julianne when she comes back from this…I guess coma.”

—-Time skip a good few days because this has hit a stalemate—-

Dustin held onto my hand while watching my chest rise and fall. A tear falling down his cheek onto the white t-shirt he was wearing. Steve on the other side of the bed, running his fingers through my hair.

“Hey Jules…you gotta wake up okay. We’re so close to clearing Eddie’s name. We just need your help. We need you to give one final blow to this whole thing. We’ve found a place that he’s gonna be safe for a good while. You just need to come back to us.”

The words echoed in my head, making it seem like I was deeper in my body than I really was. I was desperate for them to know that I could hear them, that I was with them. I tried my best to move my hands or my mouth, just something that I could do to prove to them that I wasn’t brain dead like this Vecna creep.

“Although…let go if you need to Jules. I don’t want you to keep holding on and just wasting the energy that you have left. We want you to be comfortable when you pass…if you pass I should say.” Feeling Dustin let go of my hand and hearing him turn away from me, letting the dam break and letting the tears fall; Steve holding him into his chest.

“Dustin…She’s not gonna just leave just like that she wouldn’t leave us like this. She’s a fighter. We…we just need to give her time. Nancy is staying with her tonight. If anything happens, she’s gonna call okay?”

Dustin nodded and wrapped his arms around Steve, his knees buckling under him. In only a day, he’s nearly lost almost all of the people that cared about him and he cared so immensely about.

Later that night, after most of the crew left with Nancy and Robin staying behind, I started trying to move my hand towards Nancy’s. Starting simple and trying to reach out with my pinky to just be able to move my hand closer to hers.

It seemed like it was taking everything in me to just reach out and touch her. Trying to crawl my hand to the top of hers, my breathing getting faster and my heart rate skyrocketing.

Nancy felt my hand reach the top of hers and looked up to Robin with wide eyes.

“Robin…look. Go call Steve, Dustin, someone! Hey Julianne, I’m here. You can wake up I promise. You’re in the hospital, you’re safe.” Her hand gripped mine tight, kissing my knuckles.

The absolute pressure that I was feeling in my chest to wake up made it feel impossible. I wanted to scream, to sob, to sit straight up and freak the fuck out until I could calm myself down.

I moved my arm closer to Nancy, using my fingers to basically move the weight of mountains that was the dead weight I had become. Her hands moved up and down my arm, her laughter filling the air around the room.

“Julianne come on come on you can do it you brave, strong, fantastic girl! Keep coming back to me. Dustin’s gonna be here any minute, don’t you wanna be awake for when he gets here? Just keep coming back.”

My eyelids flickered, my leg trying to move on its own with little success. My heavy chest, rising and falling quicker as I could feel the breathing tube down my throat, feeling it choking me. Breathing against the forced air, keeping me alive, I started to bring my hand up, using my torso as a guide to find my face and eventually the breathing tube.

With a lack of strength, finding a loop on the device and pulling it out with the dead weight that I couldn’t take anymore. Gagging sounding out from around the tube that I was pulling out and finally it landed on my chest.

I heard the chair that Nancy was sitting in, skid across the floor as she ran for the door.

“I need a doctor! She’s waking up please anyone that can help me. She’s pulled out the breathing tube on her own!” Her frantic tone was scared but also happy. I figured that she was ecstatic that I was waking up but also terrified that anything could go wrong at any given moment.

My eyes finally opened, though slowly, being blinded by the light above me. My throat scratchy and almost feeling raw as if I had been screaming non-stop for days on end, i managed to get out a few words.

“Nance? Nancy? Where are you?” My voice was barely above a whisper, my lips beyond chapped despite the fact that I was trying to wet them with a dry mouth.

Hearing the click of heels and the sound of Dustin frantically telling people to get out of his way, a smile had somehow managed to find its way to my face.

“Julianne you’re awake! God Eddie is gonna be so happy to see you” Dustin laid his body on top of mine, wrapping my still very weak body in a hug. He smelled of my bed and even some of my perfume.

“Dustin please tell me that you’ve been staying at my house and not that you’ve decided to start wearing my perfume.”

His laugh resonated in my ear, a laugh that I never thought I was gonna hear again. Dustin had to be pulled off of me by Robin in order for the doctor to do his job. Immediately asking me questions and looking me over like I was a prize winning pig.

Though it was nice to be awake again, I still wasn’t able to go home and figure out a way for me to clear Eddie’s name. The rest of the days that I spent in the hospital, that was all I could think about. A way for my lover to not go to jail. To not spend the rest of his living days rotting away in a small cell. The only contact that I would be able to have with him being behind a glass window.

Days had passed while I was still getting better and stronger. Working my muscles so I could stand up again and walk. Steve and Nancy staying nearly everyday to help me even when I didn’t have therapy. In just a few days, I was almost entirely better. now the only thought in my head was Eddie. I didn’t know where he was or how he was, just that he was alive and in hiding.

I knew that he hadn’t killed anyone, let alone multiple people. I just had to make sure that every one else knew that. In order for me to clear his name, I had to tarnish someone else’s.

“Jason…that’s who it needs to be.” I said with my eyes closed. The gang thought that I was asleep, everyone else whispering to each other to not wake me.

“What? What are you talking about? What does Jason have to do with anything?”

“In all technicality, Jason is another person that should be looked at right? I mean problems with his own girlfriend, his teammate was killed in the presence of Jason. No one knows who was around Fred when he died. Not only was Eddie a common factor when all these murders took place but so was Jason. Sure the entirety of his teammates would say that Jason was at their party but I mean come on there has to be a time that he was unaccounted for.”

All eyes were on me. I had just made the biggest accusation since Eddie was accused. I looked around at all the shocked faces in the room.

“I’m not wrong you know. The only reason he’s not being looked into is because hes the popular kid on the basketball team. Why would you look into him? He could do no wrong, right? But I say that’s even more of a reason we try to pin this on him. No one is looking at the one suspect who has more motive than Eddie. Eddie has no motive, Jason? He has a shit ton.”

Lucas looked at me then looked down at his feet, guilt running cold through his veins.

“What the fuck did you do Sinclair? I mention pinning this on Jason and you’re suddenly all guilty dog.”

“I was the one that told Jason where to find Eddie the first time around. I was caught up in the fact that I was finally popular that I messed everything up for you and for everyone.”

My blood ran hot in that moment. “So you’re meaning to tell me that the reason that my boyfriend is having to be in hiding and fear for his life, your DM mind you, is because you wanted to be fucking popular? Are you actually being fucking real with me right now Sinclair?”

He nodded slightly, nearly causing me to jump out of the bed and strangle him with any cord I could find. Steve put his hand on my shoulder and pushed me back into the bed.

“You know better than to try and kill one of my little sheep, Powell.”

My eyes flicked up and my body softened when I saw Eddie standing in the doorway.

“Your mom got me in here so I could see you for a little bit. Feisty lady that one is.” He walked in, catching my body as i jumped out of the bed and hugged him.

“Eddie…you look handsomer than ever my love. I can’t believe that you’re here right now. You shouldn’t be here in fact. Do you know how much you’re risking just being here in public?”

He nodded, kissing the top of my head, waddling me back to the bed, setting me back down to the mattress.

“I know what risk I’m taking but quite frankly everyday I’m alive is apparently a risk. And might I say that since your near death, you have gotten even more gorgeous. You, my sweet little dove, are radiant.”

My cheeks heated up and I gave him a soft smile. He always knew how to get me smiling when I was in a bad mood.

“Okay quit smooth talking me. Are you being save? Where are you staying?”

“Well your mom loves me so so much that she’s hiding a fugitive from the law. How amazing is that!” My eyes got wide and I looked at Dustin.

“Henderson did you know about this?”

He gave a soft nod and I looked back to Eddie, seeing a huge smile on his face.

“Tom Cruise and Anthony Edwards huh?”

“You went in my room Munson?”

“Oh not just went in your room, I looked through your room. You have interesting taste my love. Top Gun and Metalica? you are every end of every spectrum aren’t you.”

I rolled my eyes and pushed him away, giving him a smirk. “If you wanted to see my room Edward…All you had to do was ask.”

I grabbed his arm and pulled him to me, giving him a soft kiss.

“Okay okay enough with my gross lovey dovey stuff. What’s this I hear of you accusing Jason Carver of murder?” I chuckled as Eddie laid back across the bed, putting his hands behind his head.

Catching him up was a doozy, having to explain my thought process to him. I created a timeline bubble in my hand and showed it to him.

“So basically, i’m going to change the timeline. I don’t know how it’ll affect us since we all know that Eddie is innocent. I’m hoping that it doesn’t change anything for us except masks Jason the real guilty one.”

Eddie was enamored by the bubble, watching memories float by from nearly every person in the room.

“You’re not supposed to touch the timeline because it can royally fuck things up but I think in this case, we’ll be fine with a little bit of the future being changed. However, for me to change the timeline, I need to get out of here and to wherever I can cast this over the entirety of Hawkins. Even Jason…but unfortunately, Jason and I don’t have a great relationship so I bet you he’s gonna come for me looking for you. I’m one of the last people that he hasn’t been able to get his hands on to try and find you to kill you.”

That was all it took for everyone to get their asses into gear and moving. My mom got me discharged the next day and it was onto phase two of my plan. Get me to a high enough platform to cast this and get our lives back to the way that they were.

After this “earthquake”, everyone was on high alert for falling buildings. Making it much harder for us to find somewhere that wasn’t surrounded by people.

Walking all over town, we really got to see the damage first hand. Seeing all of the buildings that were demolished and family owned businesses that were destroyed and crushed the income for so many people.

“Steve… What about the school? Like around it? i might be able to cast this big enough to cover the whole of Hawkins from there.”

“Jules, i’m not too sure. There’s gonna be people everywhere and I don’t want them to see you and then start coming after you because I don’t know if you’ve noticed this but you quite literally have magic powers.”

“Have you quite literally forgotten I’m already about to change the timeline? I can just make them not remember that I have powers.”

Steve rolled his eyes and leaned up against a wall, grabbing my wrist and pulling me back.

“If you can do that, then just do it here. Not a lot of people and it would save us from having to trek our way to the school.”

He did have a point, not like he was absent of them, just not a lot of good points.

I sat on the ground and closed my eyes, my hands flat on the ground, feeling the earth below me. I focused on connecting my soul to the cosmo-like energy I got my powers from.

My veins glowed a bright green, trailing all the way up my body, up my neck, and to my eyes; making them glow a toxic green.

“I’m gonna be honest Julianne, this is pretty creepy. I’ve never seen you…uh…well glow.”

I started to get up slowly, forming a timeline bubble, the new path for the timeline inside of it. My hands forming it and smoothing out finishing details that would otherwise cause more problems than it’d fix.

“Jason Carver…you will pay for your wrongdoings and you will atone for the sins that you have committed against your fellow man. Though the entirety of Hawkins will prosecute you for a crime that you did not commit, you are the one that the rest of your people will find guilty for the crimes. Your wrongdoings and your actions will not be forgiven but the universe that put you here and gave you a chance to become a better person will remember what you have done. You created a mob and went on a man hunt for an innocent man who, because of who he was, you found as the only scapegoat for the murder of two people that you had in your life. Chrissy who never deserved you, but instead deserved someone who actually loved her and wanted her. Patrick who you pushed to his limits in a manhunt that he was forced to participate in. Targeting children who only wanted to play a game. I, as the person who is the only one at this point that could even begin to help you, find you guilty in the sensibility that if you are to continue roaming the streets of Hawkins, more people will be in danger than they are safe. You are a danger to yourself and others. In this otherworldly judgement, we the judge, jury, and executioners of the cosmos, find you guilty of the deaths of Chrissy Cunningham, Fred Benson, and Patrick McKinney. In this new timeline, you will be found guilty by the Hawkins police station and will spend the rest of your life in prison.”

My voice was distorted as i lifted off the ground some, the timeline bubble in my hands expanding in tune with the speech I was giving. Tilting my head back, I collapsed my hands inwards, popping the bubble and sending a toxic green waste through all of Hawkins.

My body fell back to the ground, catching myself, rolling and popping back up. I turned around and looked at Steve who was shocked in the fact that he had just watched my change an entire timeline. He knew that I had powers and that I could do some pretty cool things but he didn’t truly know the intensity and power that I held.

“What the fuck was that Julianne?” Steve walked over to me and held my shoulders, looking me deep in the eyes.

“I changed the timeline like we wanted. What did you think I was just gonna think about it and write a rune on the ground. Waive my hand over it and poof it was gonna happen?”

he took a moment and his eyes changed, saying a non verbal ‘Yes!’.

“Well now you know how it really happens. And we don’t speak this to anyone else okay? Me doing this could really fuck up the future. i didn’t want to do this but for Eddie…for my love…I would do anything to keep him from getting hurt.”

i wasn’t telling a lie, but it would take as lot of timeline changes for it to make any significant changes to the far future.

Steve rolled his eyes and pulled me with him, dragging me to the car to drive back to my house. Silence the whole drive, in fear that I hadn’t fucked everything up too bad.

It wasn’t like us to just stay silent for an entire drive, one of us was bound to say something or at least have the radio on listening to music. There was something unsettling about the fact that Steve looks worried. That he looked like out fight was far from over.

“Steve…you have to understand that I keep a lot of things hidden from all of you. I do it to make sure that you’re all safe. I don’t use my powers unless it’s necessary.”

“Well you could have at least told us how the hell it was gonna happen so we didn’t think that you were getting fucking possessed.”

“Why the hell would you think I’m getting possessed?! Did you really think that Vecna would make me glow green, recite a speech, change a timeline, and then just let me go?! You’re actually serious right now Steven Harrington! You guys know that I do magic, I tell y’all that I’m gonna change a timeline and then you act like I just sprung this on you? Is that what you think is happening?”

Steve went quiet after that, gripping the steering wheel tighter and stepping on the gas harder; speeding off to my house. I crossed my alarms and looked out the window, immediately getting out and stomping away from the car once he turned into my driveway.

“Julianne get back here we’re not done talking!”

“Yes we are Steve. Now if you don’t mind, which I frankly don’t care if you do, I have my boyfriend to go and see.”

After that, I ignored every word that exited his big mouth. Skipping up the steps and entering my house, locking the door behind me, locking him out of the house.

“What the hell was that all about?”

Robin came out of my kitchen with a piece of butter bread.

“Why don’t you ask him, also Robs we have other food in teh kitchen. You don’t have to eat poor when you’re at my house. We have better food than that.”

I pushed passed her and ran up the steps to my bedroom, opening the door, seeing a shirtless Eddie on my bed with a fan at the end of my bed on high, reading Lord of the Rings.

“Eds…I know i told you you that if you wanted to be in my room all you had to do was ask but, being shirtless in my just washed sheets? Now it’s gonna smell like you and I’m gonna want you over everyday for the rest of my life.”

I gave him a smirk and climbed on top of him, laying my head on his chest, listening to his heart beat loudly..

“Well if I had known that, I would have started coming over and laying shirtless in your bed ages ago. Did you do the timeline thingy?”

I smiled at him and gave him a kiss on the cheek, nodding against his skin.

“That I did, so you should be able to go out into public and no one want to kill you or arrest you. Should probably make sure Wayne is okay and knows that you’re alive. Apparently a lot of people are dead or missing from this quote unquote freak earthquake.”

“Yeah…I feel so bad for him. He never deserved to be a part of this. He’s a good man.” m

“i know Eds. He’s even taken care of me when I’ve gotten a bit too drunk and somehow ended up at your trailer. Come on. let’s go see him yeah? I’m sure he’ll be excited to see you.”

I stood up from my bed and held my hand out, Feeling and watching Eddie take it gently. He stood up from the bed and engulfed me in a hug. Kissing the top of my head and waddling us towards the door. A smile creeping across his face and a laugh billowing out of his chest and throat.

The drive to the gym was natural and reminiscent of the times that we had had before, going to sand from DnD sessions when Eddie’s van was broke down and Wayne was fixing it back up.

Pulling into a parking spot, we got out and started to make our easy in. Eddie stopped in his tracks and pulled my arm back, his breath and voice shaky.

“Julianne…I don’t know if I can do this. I mean…What if your spell thing didn’t work the way you wanted it to or if someone still remembers and they try to hurt me but worst of all what if you get hurt because you’re with me?”

“Eddie…my sweet sweet boy. I can assure you if they try to hurt me, they’re in for an ass whooping. And if they try to hurt you well…I’ll just have to give them a bit of persuasion. Anyways my spell worked, i know it worked so you don’t have to worry about that. Let’s just go in yeah. Get you back to Wayne and get back to this new way of life.”

He gave me a nod and I was finally able to pull him into the gym, squeezing his hands for reassurance on his part.

“Look there’s Wayne. Wayne! Over here!”

Eddie’s uncle glanced over with misty eyes,softening as he saw me, I pulled Eddie out from behind some people and Wayne nearly broke down. Jogging over to us and hugging his nephew tightly.

“Edward Munson…where the hell have you been?”

“Saving the world I guess. Had to keep this one from killing some people.”

Eddie chuckled and hugged his uncle tighter. I turned around at the sound of the gym door opening and closing to see if I knew the people coming in. Steve, Dustin, and Robin walked in with boxes of clothes and various items. I gave them a knowing nod and turned back around to keep talking to Wayne. No one in the entire gym uttering a word about Eddie being a prime suspect in the murders. No one giving glances that would have knowing undertones at the sight of Eds.

“Hey Wayne…Eds. I’m gonna go talk to Robin for a moment yeah? Please be save Munson.”

Giving hu i’m a kiss on the cheek, i went over to the group, hugging Robin and holding her shoulders.

“Hey Vickies over there. Maybe this is your chance to see if she actually likes you. Go go…I’ll be over at the medical table with my mom. Help clean up some cuts sand look at some bruises. Just give me the signal if you need me to come in and save the day again.”

Robin looked over at Vickie and took a deep breath. Going over to her and starting to help make sandwiches. I scanned through the crowd, watching for harmful eyes but none appearing. My mom put her hand on my back, nodding and kissing my forehead.

“You did good kiddo. I couldn’t be more proud of you. You ready to tend to these people? Let’s get them all patched up.”

We were all in our places, helping the people of Hawkins recover, everyone coming together and finally helping one another. Eddie came over to the section my mom and I were, coming up behind me and kissing my cheek.

“mind if I stay over here with you? Wayne went to sleep and I have nothing to do.”

“I would love for you to stay with me Eds. You can help hand me things for when we’re patching people up yeah?”

Eddie sat behind me and helped my mom and I in our station, no one knowing the wiser that Eddie was originally the main suspect. Everyone finally living their happily ever after. Fair now.

I have a Red Bubble it isn't much but it's something so check it out (* ^ ω ^)!

Favorite lyrics of all time

Lorde // Sober II (Melodrama)

All the terror and the horror, God I wonder why we bother / All the glamour and the trauma and the fucking melodrama / All the gunfights and the limelights and the holy sick divine lights

Lorde // Perfect Places

All of the things we're taking / 'Cause we are young and we're ashamed / Send us to perfect places / All of our heroes fading / Now I can't stand to be alone / Let's go to perfect places

It's not enough to feel the lack, I want it back, I want it back, I want it–

Lorde // Glory and Gore

Wide awake in bed, words in my brain/"Secretly you love this, do you even wanna go free?"/Let me in the ring, I'll show you what that big word means

Taylor Swift // Death By A Thousand Cuts

My heart, my hips, my body, my love, try'na find a part of me that you didn't touch, gave up on me like I was a bad drug, now I'm searching for the signs in a haunted club, our songs, our films UNITED WE STAND our country, guess it was a lawless land, quiet my fears with the touch of your hand, paper cut stings from my paper thin plans, my time, my wine, my spirit, my trust, try'na find a part of me you didn't take up, gave you so much but it wasn't enough, but I'll be alright it's just a thousand

cuts

Halsey // Forever ... (is a long time)

Well love built God built promises, built provinces broke promises, 'cause I could never hold a perfect thing and not demolish it, what am I thinking? What does this mean? How could somebody ever love me?

The Killers // Read My Mind

The teenage queen, the loaded gun, the drop-dead dream, the chosen one, a southern drawl, a world unseen, a city wall and a trampoline

Mom, would you wash my back this once? And then we can forget and I'll leave what I'm chasing for the other girls to pursue. Mom, am I still young? Can I dream for a few months more?

Lorde // Sober

Midnight, we're we're fadin', 'til daylight, we're jaded, we know that it's over, in the mornin', you'll be dancin' with all the heartache, and the treason, the fantasies of leavin', but we know that, when it's over, in the mornin', you'll be dancin' with us

Taylor Swift // champagne problems

Your Midas touch on the Chevy door, November flush and your flannel cure, this dorm was once a madhouse, I made a joke, "well it's made for me" how evergreen our group of friends don't think we'll say that word again, and soon they'll have the nerve to deck the halls that we once walked through, one for the money, two for the show, I never was ready so I watched you go, sometimes you just don't know the answer 'till someone's on their knees and asks you, "she would've made such a lovely bride, what a shame she's fucked in the head," they said, but you'll find the real thing instead, she'll patch up your tapestry that I shred and hold your hand while dancing, never leave you standing, crestfallen on the landing

with champagne problems

Lorde // A World Alone

That slow-burn wait while it gets dark / Bruisin' the sun

I know we're not everlastin' / We're a train wreck waiting to happen

Halsey // Colors

You’re dripping like a saturated sunrise / You’re spilling like an overflowing sink / You’re ripped at every edge but you’re a masterpiece / And now you’re tearing through the pages and the ink

Lorde // Supercut

In my head I do everything right / When you call I forgive and I fight / All the moments I play in the dark / We were wild and fluorescent come home to my heart

Just Say Yes

↠ Pairing: Bokuto Koutarou x Akaashi Keiji

↠ Warning: Royal AU! Slight nsfw mentioned, angst to fluff, mention of death, Songfic! Love Story by: Taylor Swift

↬ Word Count: 2,235

Summary: In between saving your own kingdom and throwing away your freedom, wouldn't you rather run away and be free like all the birds you see fly from your window up in a palace? Would you dare take another's hand as they lead you to another chapter of your life? Or would you stay forever held against your will as young prince Akaashi Keiji?

⇢ Day 9: Royal AU @bokuakaweek2020

✎﹏

Being the only son meant a lot of responsibilities. Whether you grew up from the villages or up in the palace, it was always like that for the eldest and only child.

"You are to be married next week, Akaashi. Your bride is a true gem and will serve as our palace and cities security."

What more can be shouldered in the stoic males shoulder than being his own father's pawn to his own game.

Nothing truly mattered to the king other than his own entitlement and grounds. Having to force his own son take on more and more duties and him to sit down and watch as things unfolf according to his desire.

"I refuse, father. I do not want to single handedly marry someone whom I have never encountered nor have developed such feelings with. It is unfair."

If only his mother were here, she would've said the same thing to her husband. But upon the death of the kingdom's queen casted a dark void to their king. Leaving the poor prince to be his only way of letting all emotions out on such reckless demands.

"You will do as you are told. This is for the good of our people and our kingdom standing. Do you want to see all this fall out of your own selfish desire?"

Had his father have the nerve to talk about such topic.

A true hypocrite.

"No father."

"Then you are dismissed."

Despite the sadness now slowly forming into a dam that is yet to crack, Akaashi held his head high as he passes by the royal guards, bowing before him as he made his way up to his room, walking a bit faster as to know he was a ticking bomb.

When he shuts the wooden door behind him, he slouches down against it, unable to bottle up all the pent emotions years had held.

How he truly wishes he could trade anything to have his mother here holding him in her arms again. But he knows that not even the amount of golds and diamonds are enough to bring the dead back.

He lets his tear fall from the silver object that was wrapped around his finger. A cheap knock off ring that was on sale from the village not too long ago.

Recalling the time he had snuck out that night of an event held inside the palace. He couldn't help but feel overwhelmed from the surrounding of those who wished to have their boots kissed and princesses swarming around him just for his hand in marriage, he went out in full cloack and straight to the festival that was held in the village.

He could never understand why his father didn't want to invite these people inside their humongous ball room. They seemed more fun and outgoing than the ones in full boast of their attire. The chuldren held some kind of stick that was lit with fire sparkling from the tip, people dancing in some kind of folklore but jolly tune, and there were so many stalls of food he wasn't allowed to try!

But what really made that night more surreal was when he had stumbled upon a small bar. Deciding to take a break from all of his wonderings, he was lost in the sight of so many unfamiliar dish being told to him.

"You're not from here, are you?"

He can remember his face getting pale. It was risky to have the prince spotted outside the palace. His father's rules including, "If thy prince is to be found wondering out of the palace, return thee at once and you shall be given an award for escorting him safely."

That person grabbed his wrist and ran out of that bar. He thought he was done for but quickly surged into panic when they both ran into another direction that led underneath the bridge. Was he going to eat the dust now?

"Here, you should be safe here, your highness."

The man had sat down on the grass, placing the sack he had been carrying when they ran out beside him, opening it gingerly to reveal the amount of food he had brought.

"I don't mind sharing but," Akaashi flinches when his golden eyes were more prompt from the moonlight, giving him that kind of dangerous look in them, "I know for one thing the palace doesn't allow you to eat this. It might be rubbish for you, but dig in to whatever suits your likings!" grinning, Akaashi was baffled by his kindess. His father would tell him stories about the villagers and them being nothing but cruel and savages to one another. But he was different. Come to think of it, everyone he had his eyes on the village seemed too different from the stories.

"Um." he watches as he scarfs down a loaf of bread, dipping it into some kind of white substance thag had green litterings on them.

"Hm? Oh, you wanna try the bread? Its good when you dip it in sour cream." ripping half of his bread, he hands one gently on Akaashi's palm, sliding in the dipping he was talking about. He knelts on the ground in wary, before he gives his bread a little dip in the cream and nibbles on it.

Eyes sparkling a bit at the foreign taste, he dips it once more and this time takes a bigger bite. At this moment, he didn't realized he was already starving so much.

"Good right? You should try it with the potato, it's amazing."

He gulps on his meal, giving the kind man a smile, "Thank you, for being so kind to me, um.." he trails off bashfully when he was given another one of his captivating grin.

"Bokuto, Bokuto Koutarou at your service."

And from that day he had his first meal outside the palace. His first time to ever talk to someone outside the palace and spent the entire evening with.

The day he found love.

Since then, they both made a tradition. Once a week Bokuto would help him sneak out of the palace and out to the outskirts of town where they can enjoy some time alone and explore places Akaashi wishes he could see. And most of the time, Bokuto would make his way up from the tallest tree to meet up with him from the castles balcony below his room.

It was terrifying to get caught, but what made it worthwhile was Akaashi's happiness and both of their romance blooming to one another.

He smiles sadly as he raises his finger to his eye level. The ring he was given by Bokuto, the symbol of his undying love for him, next week to be replaced by some golden band and to be owned by someone whom he will never let in his already taken heart.

"Hey, Akaashi. Gimme your hand for a second."

Both males sat on their usual spot underneath the bridge outside of town. It had been their go to since no one comes out of night.

"Are you going to place your chin again, Bokuto?"

The last time he asked for this was when he wanted to tease the prince by placing his chin on his palm and whisper an I love you to him just to see his face bloom into a pretty shade of red.

"Nooo, this is something else, trust me. You'll like it!"

Sighing but smiles at him, he obliged to his request and places his hand onto his callused palm, awaiting for his next move.

"Atleast, I hope you'll like it."

He looks up to his golden eyes, taken back a little when he sees how flustered Bokuto has gotten before feeling a cold metalic like band slid on his finger.

"Is this?"

"It's plastic, I know." he scratches the back of his head as Akaashi stares in awe at the ring, "It's not really something that should be given to someone who's from the royal palace, but I promise you this will change into a gold one soon one day."

Akaashi's cheeks flushed. Was this a pre proposal?

"Here," Bokuto shows him his hand, "I have the same one as you. This'll be our promise ring together."

The amount of love Akaashi can feel in his chest was starting to swell it made his eyes a bit teary. Yet for some reason he couldn't help but smile widely at the thought of getting away from his palace and start a new life with someone who he truly loves.

"I'll be the one who'll marry you. That's a promise."

(Romeo, save me, I've been feeling so alone)

He sobs at the last line he has stuck to his head, "I'm so sorry, Bokuto." afraid of what his father might have done if he was to find out he already has someone. Let alone the opposite gender, he knows behind bars wasn't going to be Bokuto's consequence.

He fears that if he were to tell his father he loves a man. A man outside the palace he would meet with the same faith as those who defiled the king. Losing another person he has loved and clung on will be the last thing to snap Akaashi from his own sanity.

And for one moment, he actually thought of marrying the woman he was told to if it meant Bokuto would stay alive until the very end.

(I keep waiting for you, but you never come)

"Akaashi?"

His body jolts from the sound coming from his balcony windows he has forgotten to close a while back. Eyes focused on the silhouette that was squated down outside, looking warily for any guards that were on patrol for the night.

Just as all hope was lost, he had forgotten that it was that time of the night Bokuto would sneak in his room like he always does to check on him and spend a little time before he leaves at dawn.

(Is this in my head? I don't know what to think)

Bokuto sprints inside his room quietly, quickly kneeling beside the sobbing prince and places his hands on his cheeks.

"Y-you,"

"I know," softly stroking his cheeks, he swipes away the sad tears, "I heard. That's why I came."

The dam finally broken, Akaashi breaks into another wave of sobs, wrecking his body as Bokuto shields him away from everything the world can offer, whispering sweet nothings into his ear as he weaves his fingers in his tossled hair.

Knowing his story, his past, Bokuto vowed he would take him away from all of this misery that has chained him up from his freedom from the world. That he will be the one to take care of him and tend to him unlike now where he was being left in the shadows as a worn out doll.

"Let's run away."

(He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said, )

Akaashi's eyes widened at his words. The fear striking back at him stronger.

"R-run? Run where?" his voice strained, looking like a frightful deer to Bokuto, who held a stern expression and his grip on his shoulders tighten.

"Run far away from here, anywhere. I'm not letting you marry someone you don't love and have your freedom taken away."

Bokuto's breathing was calm compared to Akaashi's ragged ones. He was quivering in so much fear he almost let's a yell out, instead it was a cracked voice that held a small plea into them.

"But you'll get killed! Bokuto...I can't have that.."

Burying his face on this broaded chest, his cries muffled as he clutches on his cloak, afraid to let go and meet with his faith.

"I don't want this.."

Bokuto forces his face up gently to look into his eyes, nothing but love and determination in them. He wonders, why isn't he afraid to lose his own life? Did he want to die so easily?

His lips suddenly captured by his, letting him melt into his hold and peck even for a second as he feels the swarm of emotion rising from within Bokuto to him before he pulls away and spoke,

"Marry me, Akaashi.

You'll never have to be alone

I love you and that's all I really know."

He listens to him, taking in every word and body language he could see from Bokuto.

"That's all I care about and should matter. Everything will follow if we take a step away from all of this."

"But my father—

"Let go of your dad, and go pack up your stuff."

For a second, he thought he saw his mother right before his eyes. Telling him exactly to follow Bokuto with a small smile, wanting her son to be freed from the greed and power she has known from her husband ever since she too, was forced to marry him out of demand.

There were too many things happening in one night. Yesterday they were happy, spent an entire evening exploring ones body and littering kisses all over, spilling out each other's love speeches and now,

Now marks the day Akaashi leaves his hell hole alone and live the life his mother would've wanted for him and her.

"It's a love our story, please, just say, "Yes"

And he did, for he knows he wants to keep this story going until their last breath.

Jac & Amelia

Jac: [So the vibe is evidently just showing up at the pre-drinks at this gfs house, we'll have to be some level of wasted to have the nerve so from the off it's a mood lol] Amelia: [a select gathering of the gays that you weren't invited too, but it's okay because Amelia can't throw you out when everyone else is like yeah come through] Jac: [literally you'd have to make such a drama and that's not you and also no one knows why you stopped being besties so it clearly appears chill from the outside, I vote the club should be a gay one so you have to commit to that hen] Amelia: [agreed because clearly her gf has planned this because Amelia's plan was to go and get that haircut and outfit with her mum so] Jac: [too pure for this bitch, we all know this is just an excuse for her to party like any other night really, which is rude, do something special but no, at least you're simply that hoe so it's not like we even have to work hard here, the flirting is blatant] Amelia: [it hurts my heart because you know Jamelia would have gone IN for each other's birthdays] Jac: [and her last one was start of transition year so they would've still been friends, AND it was her 16th so it would've been really poppin'] Amelia: [brb sobbing] Jac: [thank god jac is also miserable and only pretending to be living her best life or this would be even ruder] Amelia: [and thank god Amelia isn't in love with this gal] Jac: [and that lmao] Jac: [to me it should be like they just straight up make out on the dance floor 'cos her girlfriend is the 'its not a big deal omg!' type but even if it weren't, it is because it's Jac] Amelia: [hence when Amelia loses it it's Jac she's shouting at and being like how could you do this to me etc not her gf] Jac: [mhmm mHM we all know she's barely speaking at this point so she's not gonna say anything and your gf will be going off 'cos she looks the gobby type so you can slap her if you need babe lol] Amelia: [she so is the gobby type, Amelia just straight up dismissing her because this isn't about you babe I gotta scream at Jac rn thank you] Jac: [meanwhile we're just trying to walk away like the audacity] Amelia: [literally like SAY SOMETHING!

Jac: because I humiliated you Amelia: it wasn't the first time for me either Jac: never like that Amelia: I'm not going to fight you Jac: your loss Amelia: I keep telling you, I care about you, I don't want to hurt you Jac: I wish you'd stop Amelia: I wish I could Jac: yeah Jac: well Amelia: it's my loss, like you said Jac: don't worry, I've got my own Amelia: that makes me feel loads better Jac: it should Amelia: it doesn't Jac: you're infuriating Amelia: says you Amelia: I'm so angry at you Jac: because I wanted you to be Jac: that's the correct response Amelia: no, because I love you too much to hate you Amelia: because it won't go away Amelia: and I don't want to feel like this for the rest of my fucking life no matter what you do Jac: I don't have the answer Jac: If I could make you stop then I would Jac: but I don't know how Amelia: me either Jac: there's nothing I can do if you don't hate me by now Jac: I dropped you for Savannah Jac: I did everything I did tonight Amelia: I was there, I don't need you to recap Jac: I couldn't have made it easier Amelia: there's something wrong with me, there must be Jac: not as bad as me Amelia: my mum said at the time that I fell in love with you years ago and I can't expect to fall out of it in a few weeks or months Jac: logic adds up Amelia: she thinks I'm over it now so clearly not Jac: you probably said you were Jac: or near enough Amelia: the girlfriend thing kind of said it for me Jac: yeah well Jac: I've had loads of boyfriends Amelia: you're not in love with me Jac: I meant it doesn't mean anything, necessarily Amelia: yeah Amelia: my mum is more old fashioned though Amelia: romantic or whatever Jac: more romantic than your girlfriend, yeah Amelia: 🙄 Jac: she wasn't good enough for you anyway Amelia: I'm not good enough for anyone Amelia: I'm literally still in love with someone else who isn't them Jac: it isn't that simple Jac: you can feel things for more than one person Jac: you just, didn't for her and she wasn't worth it Amelia: maybe other people can but I don't Jac: how would you know Jac: it just hasn't happened yet Amelia: I'm too self aware if anything Jac: that's some lesbian nonsense Amelia: I'll put it in my bio then Jac: tinder Amelia: I'm not kissing that many girls, she'll definitely think all the wrong things Jac: be kicking herself, like Jac: or is it only okay when she does it Amelia: probably Jac: just like a lad Amelia: 😣 Jac: awh Amelia: I can't be bothered Jac: with girls? Amelia: I'm not trying anymore, you didn't keep your promises anyway Jac: what does that mean? Amelia: it means I don't care, my life can stay the mess you wanted it to be Jac: alright Jac: not like I can turn around and say 'no don't' now Amelia: and if you turn around you won't see me Jac: what? Amelia: school, I'm not doing it either Jac: shut up Amelia: online maybe so my dad doesn't rage Jac: that's bullshit Amelia: so is this Jac: no, fuck you Amelia: 😂 Jac: so you all get to fucking leave and I'm the one stuck dealing Jac: nah Amelia: I've got nothing to stay for Jac: it's school, no one does Jac: jesus Amelia: you said yourself it sucks having to see me every day Amelia: I'm doing you a favour Jac: you are ridiculous Jac: you think you can just run away like this is some shit indie song Amelia: I've tried the alternative Amelia: it didn't go great Jac: you think Savannah is bad? at least her parents made her go Jac: you're such a spoilt brat Amelia: I don't think about Savannah Jac: you don't think about anything Jac: christ Amelia: your audacity is another level Jac: your stupidity is worse Amelia: yeah, I've proved that loads of times over Jac: fucking hell Jac: your life is so hard, Meelie, yeah Jac: everyone thinks its my fault, what happened to Is Jac: and the more she says otherwise, the more it sounds like it was Amelia: no they don't, I don't Jac: well you love me so you're clearly insane and a bit biased Amelia: even if I hated you I'd still know that you weren't the one who assaulted her Amelia: it's his fault, nobody else's Jac: me and Sav still ran like we had something to hide Jac: that's all anyone cares about, working out what Amelia: you were scared, in shock probably Amelia: you felt like it was your fault Amelia: that doesn't mean it was Jac: all I know is she's fucked off, no one will say anything to Is, so it's all down to me, whatever people wanna say or think about it Jac: so yeah, sorry I think your idea is fucking laughable but been there, done that Jac: didn't solve anything, it only made the rest worse Amelia: I know it's a stupid idea, alright Jac: you can't go, alright, you just can't Amelia: you know I'll fight the whole school before I'd ever fight you Amelia: I'll do it for you too, if that will help Jac: Yeah, I do Jac: nothing will help but Jac: at least you're still here Jac: nothing else is the same Amelia: I'll be in detention every day for the next 2 years if that's what it takes to shut people up Jac: I don't deserve it Jac: or anything but hate from you, and I do fucking know that Amelia: you don't deserve to get the blame for being there and being her friend Amelia: I should've been too Amelia: and after it happened we should've talked Jac: maybe it's just karma Jac: I've never been a good friend to her and by the time it happened Jac: well Jac: I made you leave Amelia: I ruined our friend so I had to leave Amelia: *ship Amelia: that's not your fault either Jac: maybe it is Amelia: it's not Amelia: I shouldn't have told you how I felt Amelia: or been jealous of Savannah Amelia: or made such a big deal about the date you went on Jac: no Jac: I get it Jac: you weren't wrong Amelia: I did the wrong thing by leaving you and Is Jac: I couldn't wish the alternative on you Jac: having to stick around and watch Amelia: I still had to watch Amelia: I couldn't go that far Jac: I know it's my fault because it happened again Amelia: what? Jac: Savannah Jac: I kissed her Amelia: I don't understand Jac: you should have been jealous of her Jac: I mean Jac: you know what I mean Amelia: you mean you felt something for her Jac: I didn't want to feel any of it Jac: but she was straight and you weren't so having her around was meant to be easier Amelia: why didn't you just tell me? Amelia: you lied and lied and made me feel crazy Jac: because I feel crazy Jac: I fucking am Jac: I just Jac: it's not like I left that conversation and told her Jac: I kept on and got with lads and pretended to like it, tried to Amelia: everything you said, everything you did Amelia: oh my god Amelia: I can't Amelia: I can't take this in Jac: like I said, it's fucking karma Jac: I fucked it with you and it happened to me Amelia: I'm supposed to feel what, that she queerbaited you? Happy? validated? Jac: I don't know Jac: probably Amelia: did you know how you felt about her when I told you how I felt? Jac: why? Amelia: because you told me over and over again that you liked boys and you'd change that if you could Jac: yes, and I told her the same thing Jac: and I acted accordingly Amelia: I've spent so long feeling horrible for putting you in that position and none of it was real Jac: it was real Jac: I don't want to be Jac: I want to be straight Amelia: it isn't a choice Amelia: and you can't just twist everything to make it one Jac: acting or not acting on it is Amelia: so why did you choose to act on it by kissing her, if that's what you think? Jac: it was a mistake Jac: when we left Jac: after Is Jac: and it was just us Jac: then it destroyed everything and she's literally run away Amelia: and then you destroyed what was left after she'd gone Jac: yes Amelia: great Jac: I'm aware Amelia: are you? Amelia: for years I thought things were one way only to be told they weren't and now you're telling me an entirely different story again Amelia: 🤯 Jac: because we don't live in the ideal world where I accept myself for liking girls and I choose the right one and we live happily ever after Jac: we live in the world where I kissed Savannah and she looked at me like I was the boy who assaulted Isabelle Jac: and that's how I feel about it, and I would rather pretend to be straight forever, and have no real friends again, than have to do that, and feel that disgust again Amelia: we live in a world that doesn't revolve around Savannah fucking Moore Amelia: because she doesn't accept you, you can't accept yourself? No Jac: it's not her fault Jac: the rules don't make no fucking sense Jac: do you know how often she told me she loved me, how beautiful I was, and smart and perfect and kind, that she wanted me in her life forever? Jac: but that doesn't mean she wants to kiss me Amelia: that's why it literally is her fault Amelia: she flirted with you more than I EVER have, or would dare to openly do because I would get called a predatory lesbian and she gets likes and follows Jac: but she meant it Jac: I know she did Jac: that's just friendship to her Jac: it's too confusing Amelia: you want her to have meant it the same way you did, like I wanted you to with me Jac: but I did Jac: I lied Jac: so I know it doesn't make a difference now Jac: but still, you weren't wrong and I did, I am, whatever Jac: it was shitty to lie, I know, I accept it Jac: but she meant it all but she is straight...how does that work Amelia: I don't know Amelia: straight people are weird Jac: I don't want to find that relatable Jac: I want to be normal Amelia: I'm not abnormal, shut up Jac: fine, straight Jac: I don't want to ever have to think about this ever again Amelia: why do you want it so bad? Jac: so I don't feel like this Jac: the not knowing Jac: how much it hurts Jac: boys are easy, I told you Amelia: because you don't like them Amelia: if you were straight you'd get hurt just the same Amelia: you said it, Valentina's no different than a lad Jac: lads just like me Jac: I've never kissed any lad and had them recoil Amelia: they liked me too, it doesn't mean I had to like them back Jac: I mean it's not the same Jac: if a lad didn't like me, he'd have reasons Amelia: loads of girls like you too, I was friends with them for a bit, I heard all that gossip Amelia: Savannah's reason is that she doesn't like girls, any of them Jac: but she loves me Jac: more than she ever did Ty, I fucking know it Amelia: not like that, like Is loved us Jac: I can't stand it Amelia: I know Jac: you know I am sorry Jac: don't you Amelia: yeah Jac: you just had come so far and had done so much work Jac: it wasn't fair Jac: what I did wasn't, but it wouldn't have been to act on it, when I wanted so badly to be straight, for everything I did tell you to be true Amelia: no, I was in exactly the same place that we left each other in Amelia: you're not the only one who can lie Jac: I'm just so sorry but that's worth fuck all Jac: I hate how stupid all of it seems now Jac: redundant Jac: but that's close to a fair punishment, I suppose Amelia: you've already been punished Amelia: and sorry always means something when it's a real one Jac: I feel Jac: I don't Jac: I'm broken Jac: I don't even want to be a person now Amelia: I don't want to find that relatable Amelia: but it is Jac: fuck's sake Jac: see, why would I choose this? Jac: even if they're weird, this never happens to straight people Amelia: of course it does Amelia: Savannah's parents are fucked Jac: just because they don't love each other no more Jac: when they got together, I'm sure they both knew Amelia: still, her mum's so broken she's barely a person Jac: all I'm saying is we're getting dangerously close to comparing being gay to a mental illness Jac: which is what homophobes say and I'm not trying to be the confirmation Amelia: it's not being gay, it's loving the wrong person Amelia: there are happy gays, I've met some Amelia: and your brother isn't being held back by it Jac: don't get me started Amelia: Jude's love life is messier than his Amelia: more dramatic Jac: he'll end up with a girl Amelia: you don't know that Jac: wait and see Amelia: yeah, I'll stalk him from afar like a fangirl Amelia: 🤢 Jac: it's not the same either Amelia: you love a competition Jac: yeah, this is so much fun Jac: him and Jude are the same Jac: it doesn't mean anything to them, so they aren't getting hurt Jac: they don't care, it's not serious Amelia: you've got me, we're very much the same Amelia: in this anyway Jac: I don't want to love anyone ever again Amelia: then don't Jac: that's why I have no friends Amelia: yeah well you don't need them, that's the line and the lie, right? Jac: it's not funny Jac: I can't be trusted Jac: with any kind of relationship with a girl Amelia: I'm not laughing because me either Amelia: I make bad choices and I'm proven stupid, remember Jac: it's so fucking isolating Amelia: school is anyway Amelia: we're all in boxes Jac: you never used to hate it this much Amelia: now you understand how much I hate everything Amelia: how exhausted I am Amelia: it'd be nice to have the solidarity if it wasn't so horrible Jac: I'm just trying to get used to it Jac: accept it Amelia: at least you don't have to see her every day Amelia: maybe that'll make it different Jac: I never get to see her again Amelia: you don't know that either Jac: I do Jac: she's unlikely to stop by when she's seeing her mum Amelia: you verbally recoiled from me, ruined my birthday, nobody would call it likely that we're talking Jac: naive optimism is exactly what got you here Jac: don't even need to scroll for the reminder Amelia: ouch Amelia: you always find new ways to hurt me Jac: you really did just say you made bad choices and were stupid Jac: continuing this conversation is just another one for the list, probably Amelia: I can say it and do so you don't need to Jac: alright, alright Amelia: you're blocked though, this is the only place you could try to Jac: I could make another post but the point has been made well enough I reckon Amelia: it's not my birthday now so there's no point Amelia: ⛅ Jac: sod you then Jac: don't want you getting the wrong impression Amelia: 😂 bit late for that Jac: yeah Amelia: my dad'll be up soon I'll just wait ☕ Amelia: don't need you to entertain me any further Jac: you gonna tell him about your shit birthday Amelia: I'll tell them both we broke up and they'll be thrilled Amelia: it's all they want to hear Jac: you can tell them it was my fault, it doesn't matter to me Amelia: why would I do that? Jac: dunno, but having someone else's parents take over and shout at me for a bit might be mildly entertaining Amelia: they think I'm over you, they want me to be better Amelia: I'm not going to ruin the lie Jac: rude Jac: but fine Jac: guess you don't owe me Amelia: no, I don't Jac: enjoy your coffee then Amelia: it'll taste disgusting like it always does Amelia: the biggest lie of all Jac: you aren't as exhausted and sad as you say you are Jac: the taste would've been acquired by now, you massive child Amelia: I've had to hide it longer than you Amelia: I'm just more skilled and hilarious Jac: so you're better at being sad? Jac: and I love a competition 🙄 Amelia: 😏 Amelia: I've acquired a taste for anything with a high enough alcohol content, there you go Jac: I was drunk before I got there and that was still apparent Amelia: haven't needed stitches yet Jac: that's something Jac: anyway, how'd you figure you've had to hide it longer? Amelia: because I have Amelia: you were sitting pretty on a ☁ with Savannah for ages Amelia: nothing could touch you up there Jac: that's where you're wrong Amelia: I'm not letting you win again Jac: 😏 Jac: it's not like I was fucking boys because I thought I wanted to Amelia: okay 🏆 no need to make me cry thinking about that Jac: they aren't that bad Jac: well, usually Jac: just not as interesting, it didn't make sense Jac: why we would waste time we could be together instead Amelia: it's really sad Amelia: as 💔 it was seeing you with lads, I thought it was at least what you wanted Jac: they aren't the ones that made me 💔 Amelia: I know but Amelia: I can't imagine doing that, or how it would make me feel if I thought I had to Jac: well you're much softer than I am Amelia: excuse me, it took you years to break me, Savannah did the same to you in 1 Amelia: you're not that hard Jac: I think that says more about Savannah than it does you Jac: but alright Amelia: right, because she's so perfect Amelia: I actually can't compete Jac: shut up Amelia: it's true Jac: it isn't that simple, I keep saying Amelia: it's as simple as you've already said, she's straight and I'm not Amelia: it was safer for you, except it wasn't Jac: you make it sound Jac: ugh Amelia: isn't it? Jac: you think I'm a right cold, calculating bitch Jac: and I'm not saying you're wrong but it was nice when you thought otherwise Amelia: we can't go back, you really drilled that into me Jac: I know Jac: oh well Amelia: oh well? that's the best you can do, yeah? Amelia: doesn't sound very calculating and well planned out Jac: because it's all over Jac: the only thing I've got left is uni and the career I want Jac: nothing else can or is going to exist Amelia: that's more than I've got Amelia: I haven't exactly been concentrating on my app Jac: well you're going to run away and find your Thelma aren't you Amelia: you ruined that fantasy with reality Jac: yeah right Jac: you're still a hopeless romantic Amelia: with a 🚗 I can't drive yet Jac: have you had any lessons yet Amelia: no Amelia: I keep asking my dad but he's always too busy Jac: go ask him now Amelia: I've drank too much to go now Jac: well duh but he'll feel so bad for you he'll make time tomorrow or whatever Amelia: and we're back to calculating Jac: someone has to if you wanna be wild and free Amelia: 😂 Jac: how early is it Jac: will the library be open Amelia: it's weird that the library is still open at any hour Amelia: you're literally the only person who ever goes there Jac: excuse me, only child Jac: you try and study with a house full of annoying kids and dogs Amelia: I'm fine with a 🏠 swap, I don't feel like studying Jac: yeah only if you make it permanent Amelia: you wouldn't take my guest room for a night, I don't think I'd be able to make that happen Jac: because you were there Amelia: rude Jac: sensible Amelia: nothing's going to happen Jac: yeah exactly Amelia: what does that mean? Jac: it means we aren't going to be friends Amelia: why not? Jac: I told you why Amelia: I'm not asking you to care about me, I'm saying I'm here for you Jac: No Jac: I wasn't joking when I said I can't have friends Amelia: I know you weren't Jac: that includes you Jac: especially you Amelia: okay Jac: okay Amelia: good morning then Jac: 👋

Mistress of Evil - part II

The Horned Prince and Audrey teleported to the throne room of Auradon Central's castle where Belle and Beast were worried about their son Ben.

"Hello my ex's in-laws." Audrey greatted them holding a halloween themed cupcake.

"Audrey what are you doing here? Dressed like this? With him?" Belle asked worried.

"Quiet Belle! You're not longer the queen 'dearie'." She said sarcastically before giving an evil laugh and turned Belle and Beast into stone statues and took a bite of the cupcake.

"Now that you've had your fun my queen peharps we should discuss the next step of our plan." The Horned Prince said.

"You're right. But I'm afraid you'll have no part in it." Audrey ripped out Horned Prince's heart and crushed it.

Meanwhile @chernie-bog reunited with the others in front of the castle, he was accompanied by Maleficent. @nicholas-rider rushed to hug Chernie.

"I'm so glad you're ok! I dig the new hair color." Nicholas said joyful.

"So am I! How did you guys snap out of the spell?" Chernie asked.

"We don't know, it just wore off." @king-ben-florian answered.

"Well whatever it happened I hope you're ready because this ends now and... Maleficent will help us."

**********************************************

The group arrived at the throne room, Audrey was sitting on the throne with a darker look, Ben's parents as statues on the corner and the Horned Prince was dead on the middle of the floor.

"What a lovely surprise to ser you all together and in one piece and no way you even brought Maleficent with you!" Audrey mocked.

"Audrey, it's time for you to stop, give up now you're on a small number."

"And I'm willing to give you a second chance bennyboo! To be with me forever."

"Never! You're not my true love and you're not the Audrey who once I've liked!" Ben replied angry.

"Well then, I am the Queen of Mean and Auradon!"

"No you're not!" The room turned dark as Maleficent started to cast a spell. "You're no longer connected to my scepter Audrey and shall never be able to use it ever again!"

Audrey fell powerless on the ground and the scepter returned to Maleficent's hands. Belle and Beast were no longer statues.

"Mom, dad!" Ben rushed to hug his parents.

Guards entered the room to take Audrey, she screamed and tried to fight back in the process. Maleficent approached Ben.

"Where will they take her?"

"She didn't gave me another choice but lock her up."

"I know it's not of my business King Ben but take this as a warning. What happened today it was the first reflection of your decision to give a second chance to the citizens of the Isle of the Lost, I hope you're ready for what's to come."

"Thanks, Maleficent."

"My king." She respectfully bowed and walked away.

"You're already leaving mom?" Chernie asked.

Maleficent froze.

"We still have a Halloween party to go, all of us."

Maleficent turned around to face her son.

"Then what are we waiting for? Lets party." Maleficent answered smilling.

Chernie got up on the stage singing and the others boys backing up and dancing.

"Is someone there or just a chill in the air?

Do you hear that whisper when the wind blows?

Feels like there's spiders crawling all in your hair,

In the dark there's a shadow in the window.

Yo can be afraid or you can be a fright

But you can't run from the fun tonight...

Oh, take me to the tomb

Where we dance like the banshee,

Howl at the moon scream.

Ah, a nightmare or a dream

Don't be scare of the dead,

Keep your head on Halloween,

Keep your head on Halloween.

What's that I thought I heard?

Something wicked, not from this world.

Zombies marching, dragging their feet,

Look out! Vampires crossing the street,

Spirits rise in the night, out goes your flashligh.

You can't unsee what you've seen,

Keep your head on Halloween.

Oh, take me to the tomb

Where we dance like the banshee,

Howl at the moon scream.

Ah, a nightmare or a dream

Don't be scare of the dead,

Keep your head on Halloween.

Oh, take me to the tomb

Where we dance like the banshee,

Howl at the moon scream.

Ah, a nightmare or a dream

Don't be scare of the dead,

Keep your head on Halloween,

Keep your head on Halloween."

Epilogue

Audrey had been locked up in Jail Tower, an old prison that wasn't in use since the Isle of the Lost was created. King Ben made sure that even though Audrey would be locked up she would have a nice room to think about her actions and would never be able to walk out of it. A fake tear ran down Audrey's face.

"You didn't think this was the end of the story, did you?" Audrey laughed maniacally.
