Ace : Bad news—Saber locked themself outside of their own house.
Ace : Good news—we didn’t have to wait around for a locksmith.
Ace : Bad news—Saber finds it very concerning that I know how to pick locks, and tried to unlock my Tragic Backstory(TM). I was too embarrassed to admit that the reason I learned it was because, at thirteen, I figured that was the kind of skill that would impress cute guys/girls/enbies.
Ace : Good news—a cute guy/girl/enby saw me do it.
Ace : Bad news—it was Deuce, and since he's already seen me fall out of several trees, cry because I saw a fawn that was just too damn small, and knows I can ride a unicycle, he'll never think I’m cool no matter what I do. It’s too late. He know.

Can't Fight This Feeling~ Dacre Montgomery 
Tumblr media
Anonymous asked:
I saw your post about wanting Dacre Montgomery suggestions.
I was wondering if you could do something where the reader is a fellow actress and plays Billy’s love interest and they meet at the table reading for season 3 or if you want a series you could always write about them falling in love on set while filming season 3?
Obviously if this doesn’t interest you feel free to just ignore or delete!
Author's Note: Lovelies, my ask box is open for requests. I will never ignore something, I will leave an explanation if a request was sent to me and another writer wrote it.
Author's Note 2: Let's talk about how this gif is sending me into a puddle.
Tags : m-rae23 ~palomam18 ~gloomybrieyxb~ hqtetsurou ~irish-newzealand-idian-dutch 
" Close your mouth, little one or you'll catch something" a voice whispered into your ear. You turned your head seeing a smirking Joe Keery who sitting in his chair, slouched with his hands folded with the elbows on the handles of the chair.
" Shut it, Keery" he chuckled. The color red painted your cheeks as you look down at your lap. You couldn't help but stare at the man across from you. He had sandy blondish hair slicked on the side with a little wave in the front that was slicked back too. His blue iris gaze at you with curiosity. Little freckles painted some on his cheeks and on his nose and his full pink lips are in a slight smirk. He had caught you staring at him from across where you were sitting.
He didn't mind at all. You had caught his eye too.
A hand pushed a new script your way and you sent Natalia, a smile seeing her freshly nail polish hand push the script in your hands. She slightly smiled back at you with a nod, giving you another one to pass to Joe who kept poking you. You swatted him on his shoulder with the script. The two you acted like siblings, just the way you are on the show. Your character was Steve Harrington's sister, and you have been on the show since the beginning.
" Y/N and Joe, quit it before the two of you are put in a time out" Matt Duffer says as he shoots you a glare. You slouched in your chair, mumbling to yourself that you had gotten in trouble because of Joe.
" You know that won't do nothing to them, let them be" say Ross Duffer, sending you a disapproving shake of his head.
" He always starts it" you pout, stomping your foot underneath the table. Joe gasps and grasps his chest as if he's hurt by your accusation. The stranger you have been gawking at can't help but chuckle at you and Joe. He has been watching the show and now fully understands why you fit so well by playing Steve Harringtons sister.
The chuckle earns your attention as you gaze up at him. Eyes locking with his as he sends you a smile. You return it, sitting up in your seat fixing your posture and flipping over the script in your hands pretending like you were reading it.
" Someone's got a crush" Keery sang as he flipped through his own script. You punched him in the shoulder telling him to shut up, he winced rubbing it shooting you a playful glare. You stuck your tongue at him.
" Okay, enough you two. Let's talk about you Y/N and your character" you nodded turning your head to pay attention. The blue eye hunk turned to pay attention as well. In his script he read that his character and your character will have lots of scenes together which made him happy.
" You're going to be playing Billy Hargrove's love interest. Billy is played by Dacre over there" the Duffer brothers gestures with their hand as the blue eye hunk that you can't stop looking at. You turn your head back to meet his gaze, he sends you a small wave with a wiggle of his fingers. You notice the gold rings around his fingers glistering in the light. One of them is a moose which peaks your interest but it laid pretty on his fingers. You wondered how big his hand was against yours.
" You will be working a lot with Dacre, you should hang out together and get to know each other. Get the feel of each other" you heard Joe cough mumbling something along the lines of shagging which you casted a glare at him.
Dacre can't help but laugh hearing what Joe had said through his coughing fit.
" You look thirst Kerry, maybe this will help" you grabbed his glass of water in front of him and threw it on him. Giggles and chuckles around the table read was heard. Everyone used to this behavior with you and Joe. Joe sits in the chair with his body stiff and his mouth dropped open as the water drips down his face.
" I'm going to count to three, L/N and you better run or I will tickle you and show you no mercy" Joe says. Your eyes got wide.
" 1" you watch to see if he is joking but he wipes his face with his hand as he glares at you. " Still here?" he shakes his head.
"3" Joe had skipped two before you squeal jumping off the chair having Joe chase you around the table read.
" I didn't mean it, Joe!" you squeal as he ran around you, you had stopped near Dacre and gripped on his shoulders with your hands. Dacre shivered feeling your touch on him, " save me" you crouch down just below Dacre.
Dacre watches as Joe runs around the table to get to you when he stands up in front you as you grip on Dacre's shirt peeking out from behind him as your best friend.
" Move, Dacre" Dacre shook his head.
" I can't do that, mate. Gotta protect the pretty ones, especially this one" he points behind him with his thumb. A paint of red colors your cheek hearing him.
" Fine, you win this round Y/N" Joe goes back to his seat as he grumbles in his chair how he is soaked and can't get another shirt until he's out of here. You step around Dacre, " Thank you, my hero."
A hint of red paints his cheeks hearing you call him your hero.
" You're welcome" he winks, biting his lip. That lip is sending you as you watch him bite it. You want to know how his lips feel against yours. How is body would feel against yours.
" Let's get back to work, no more games" you walk back over to Joe, only to have him push away your script having it fall to the floor.
" Real mature, Keery"
-
You had to take a double look seeing Dacre come out in his Billy wig with that boyish smile. The way his jeans snug his legs and the way his ass looked in them made you swoon.
He was so pretty and the way he looked convincing smoking the cigarette. He doesn't smoke which you found out when you first heard at the table read. The Duffer brothers told him to use real Marlboro Reds because it looked thicker on screen.
" Hey"he greeted you, his Australian accent still present as he makes his way over to you. He eyes you in your character clothing, biting his bottom lip eyeing your legs in the skirt you were wearing.
" Hey, Montgomery" you greeted him. He sighed, shaking his head.
" I told you to call me Dacre" you nod. " Montgomery slips so nicely on the tongue" Dacre eyes drop to the small peek of your tongue peeking out in between your lips.
" You look good" you tell him. " Can you turn for me though?" his eyebrow knot together but he does anyways. Your eyes fall on his ass, the way those jeans fitted him so well.
When he turns back around your face appears in a smirk.
" What's that look for?" he asks motioning with his head at the look on your face. " Oh, nothing that your pretty head needs to worry about" he blinks hearing you call him pretty as he looks away feeling shy.
" Don't need to be shy, take the compliment. I know you want to" he nods as his head turns back to you. There is a look in his eye that you can't place but you like it. You like it when he looks at you.
" Dacre! Y/N! we need you!" you heard from behind you. You don't even blink feeling Dacre's hand in yours as he pulls you to the set. the feeling of his hand in yours makes your heart flutter. You like it when he holds your hand. Dacre's heart is fluttering too but when he looks back at you, he melts inside seeing the little painted of red on your cheeks and that smile. Your smile is becoming his favorite.
-
You yelped in shock feeling something in your lap. Opening your eyes, you are met with Dacre's head on his lap. He had his eyes closed as he sighed. It's been a long day of shooting, a scene with Dacre wasn't working and you had to reshoot it until it was the way it was suppose to be.
" Hello there" you say. He chuckles as he opens his eyes and slightly turns his head.
" Hi" he says, his hands are folded on his stomach but the way he is gazing at you makes your heart scream to kiss him right there and there. But you don't, instead your heavy biting on your bottom lip which catches Dacre's attention.
" You'll make it bleed" he says. His words catch you off guard.
"Huh?" you asked, eyebrows knitted looking confused. He brings up his hand to your mouth, running the pad of his thumb across your bottom lip over and over until it's released from your lip.
" Better" he drops his hand but before he does, you capture it in yours and hold it feeling the warmth of his hand. The two of you had gotten closer since the show started and you had shot many scenes together. You were comfortable with him and was the same with you. Dacre was very outgoing and positive person which you liked that about him.
His palm spreads out in your hand and you spread yours in his looking the way his hand compare to yours. Your eyes go a little big watching as he laces his fingers through yours and brings it to his chest.
"you did good today" he tells you breaking the silence between the two of you. You snorted leaning your head back on the couch looking up at the ceiling of the trailer.
" Yeah, sure. I messed up a couple of scenes because I was distracted"
" Distracted from what?" his head shots up from your lap making you frown missing the feeling of his head there. His back is to your knees as he brings one leg up bending it on the couch with his one hand there on it as his gaze is on you.
" Nothing, forget it" you don't want to admit that he was your distraction. He distracted you looking all pretty, smiling at you, hugging you and holding you little bit longer, he smelled so sweet too, all the time and your heart is telling you that your catching feelings for him but your mind is telling you that he would never go for a woman like you.
Dacre frowns hearing that you were pushing yourself away from him and closing off. Much like your character as he does with his character.
" Don't push me away" he mumbles more to himself but you hear it looking at him as you see the sadness in his eyes.
" I just-" you look down at your hands picking at the edge of your nails. Dacre knows that it's a habit you have when your nervous so he takes your hand in his, stopping you.
" Take your time, I'll stay with you all night if I have to just to have you talk to me"
" You're so sweet, I appreciate it" your shoulder slug downwards a bit. A sign that you were upset and was having a hard time. You had a hard time talking about feeling when it was serious.
" I am into someone, but my heart tells me one thing while the other tell me otherwise"
" Your mind?" he taps his finger against your forehead bringing your attention back to him. You nod.
" You're heart is always right, it's the mind that plays tricks and the games"
" I don't wanna mess anything up" you tell him, Dacre can tell your having a hard time to express what you want to say. He sits with you on the couch in silence. You appreciate it and that makes it even harder to tell him how you feel.
He made you feel safe. He made you feel happy. He made you laugh and smile. He made your days. He made everything seem better.
Dacre on the other hand is struggling on his own as he watches the struggle in your eyes wishing he would help, he do anything to help. He watches your eyebrows knit in one line, he sees the lines on your forehead snuggling as your fighting yourself in your mind. He watches as you play with your own fingers.
" Can you just hold me?" you ask him. " I know it might be silly-" he cuts you off with a shake of his head.
" It's never silly, come here" he opens his arms up as wiggles his fingers for you to come to him. You do so, climbing into his lap as he wraps his arms around you and kisses on your forehead.
It kills him that he can't do anything to help. He settles on holding you and that's how you two fall asleep. In each other's arms.
-
" You're going to burn a hole in the poor girl's head, Y/N" Joe comments as he walks over besides you, in his Steve Harrington clothes. You stood watching as one of the crew members was talking to Dacre, more like flirting as she kept touching his touch with her hand and giggling at him. You saw the way she batted her eyelashes at him and he returned it with that smile.
" She's not going to have his attention all day, relax" the feeling of Joe's hand on your shoulder burns as you feel that green monster inside of you waiting to come out. If Dacre looked over, he would see the glare you had on your face but he can feel your eyes on him and the girl.
" Whatever" you mutter turning on your heel and making your way over to grab something to eat. As you were browsing what was on the table, your nose picked up the sweet scent and wood mixed together. He's standing next to you.
" Are you excited for today's scene?" Dacre asked as he watches you pick up a grilled cheese sandwich places it on your plate. You simply nod to him grabbing a few more things heading to the table to sit down. Dacre frowns at your lack of response but he follows you to the table.
" are you doing okay?" he asks.
" I'm fine" you muttered, popping a fry in your mouth. His frown deepens as his eyes scan your face. He can see your upset about something.
" Did I do something?" you shook your head. He sighs getting frustrated at the lack of response from you.
" Look, if you're not going to tell me what's wrong and just respond with your head then I won't bother you" he turns to stand up when he feels your hand on his wrist. He turns his head to glance down at you and sits back down, waiting.
He rolls his eyes when he doesn't hear you talk for a couple of minutes and just decided to sit there in silence as you ate.
-
" You should tell him how you feel" Maya tells you as she listened to the way you were talking about Dacre and what you saw earlier with the girl.
" No, I know he doesn't feel the same way about me" you stood up and motion to yourself, " I'm not the type of girl he would want anyways."
" What? What are you on about? You're super pretty, you're kind, you're smart, you're funny, you're amazing, everyone loves you and everyone loves how big your heart is"
" I'm being serious, Maya. He's out of my league" she makes a " pfft" sound before flicking you on the forehead. You pout as you rubbed the spot she flicked you on.
" Go talk to him and tell him or I will" she says, taking your shoulders and pushing you out of her trailer. You look back at it to watch her closes the door. You huffed in your step seeing Dacre walking to his trailer. You haven't much talked to him since the whole thing the other day.
Dacre sees you as you move your hair out of your way and pretend to kick an imaginary rock that's there. He can tell something is bothering you but doesn't walk over to you since you don't wanna talk to him. His heart cracks seeing how he can't help you. You won't let him. He doesn't know what you're feeling.
All this time Dacre was falling in love with you and it kills him to see you find comfort in others, when he thought you would find it in him. He looks away feeling his eyes become glossy. He doesn't want anyone to see him cry but suddenly freezes in his step feeling arms wrap around him.
Your arms. You are holding him as your head is on his chest.
" What are you doing?" he asks. His hands are by his side and it pains you that he doesn't hug you back. You don't blame him though, you have been treating him unkindly and he doesn't deserve it.
" I miss you" he hears you mumble in his chest. His heart races at your words but his arms find their way around you as he lays his head on top of your head.
" I miss you too" he says. You two stand there embraces each other. " I'm sorry I shut you out, that was wrong of me and you didn't deserve it"
He just hugs you tighter in response and places a kiss on top of your head. He feels the coldness as your body unwraps from him and watches as you take a step back. His face softens seeing the glossy eyes.
" I've been such an ass" you tell him, sniffling as a tear runs down your cheek. He cups your face with one hand as he brushes it away with his thumb. " I was just afraid if I got close to you, real close, that you'll break my heart and I can't.." his eyes grow wide hearing your confession. You lick your lips with salty tears staining them.
" You're kind, great to be around, funny, smart, really, really, really, really pretty" he laughs as he hears that, " I could listen to the sound of your voice for hours, you're so positive, so fun, so wonderful in every way, you know what to say to make things better, just by being around you, makes me feel better. Through the times we shot scenes together, I loved when we broke out of character and shared a laugh, you're all I think about" your own heart speeds up at your words as you continue to babble when a pair of lips catches you off guard.
They are soft and fit right against yours like a missing puzzle piece. Hands are cupping your cheeks, that sweet and wood smell surrounds you and your hands grasp at his shirt bringing him closer. He tilts his head making the kiss deeper.
He pulls away after a few minutes, breathless as his breath fans over your face.
" I love you too" he confesses to you. You crash your lips against his this time, hands wrapping around his neck while his go around your waist as he kisses you back with the same energy your putting into the kiss. There is electricity running through the kiss.
" About damn time!" the two of you pulled away seeing your cast members and friends along with the Duffer brothers, cheering for both of you. They all knew the two of you were in love with each other.
" You better not hurt her or I'm coming after you, Montgomery!" Joe yells, shaking a fist in the air.
" Wouldn't dream of it" Dacre says as he glances down at you, you glance back at him with a smile on your face. You giggle as he kisses your nose, " You're mine."
He was yours and you were his.

"It was an important day when I discovered that I did not teach dance, I taught people...Movement is one of the great laws of life. It is the primary medium of our aliveness, the flow of energy going on in us like a river all the time, awake or asleep, twenty four-hours a day. Our movement is our behavior; there is a direct connection between what we are like and how we move."

Morning~ Dacre Montgomery 
Tumblr media
Summary : No Summary, just waking up to a beautiful sight as Dacre Montgomery.
Authors Not : I was talking with @sage-the-z0mbie about this and I was so happy she pushed me to write this, it was cute with teasing in it too.
m-rae23 ~palomam18 ~gloomybrieyxb~ hqtetsurou ~irish-newzealand-idian-dutch 
You fluttered your eyes scrunching up your nose in discomfort as the sun peeked through the curtain neat the window. The soft breeze of the wind causing you to shiver as you turned to your side, yawning. A body laid next you, with little snores coming out of them.
He laid on his stomach with one arm underneath the pillow, his eyes flutter closed. You were jealous of the way his eyelashes kissed underneath his eyelids to his cheeks. His hair laid perfectly untouched and the softness of his skin on his bare back was inviting you to dance your fingertips on it.
He was beautiful.
You softly moved to sit up and rub your eyes when you heard a groan from besides you. A small yelp escapes from you feeling a strong grip on your waist pulling you to him. Looking down, he made no other movements and still looked like he was asleep.
You moved on your other side reaching for your phone that laid beside the bed charging still. The time read 8 a.m. You put your phone back down as you turned to look up at the ceiling of your bedroom.
A few moments pass as you think to yourself how were you going to escape your boyfriends grip as he laid, sleeping peacefully next to you. You had met Dacre through a good friend of yours, Joe Keery. Joe and you worked on a few project together, and he was like a big brother to you. You had hanged out with Decre a few times before Joe had blabbered his mouth off telling him that you had a crush on him. Dacre had one too, on you.
You pulled off the comforter off your legs slowly. It made a small sound and you hoped that it didn't wake Dacre. It didn't.
You were about to slip out of bed when you felt him press himself against your ass. He was wide awake.
" Where do you think your going?" He asked, his Australian accent thicker in the morning. You turned to lay back down, turning your head to look at your boyfriend. His blue eyes looked into yours as he waited for your answer.
" I wanted to go make breakfast" He shook his head as he tugged you closer to him. He always felt like s furnace, he wrapped his arm around you, running his hand up and down your back as he moved that your nose brushed against his. His breathe fanned over your face as he looked at you.
" No" he said, lifting his head up and moving to the side as he leaned capturing your lips with his. His lips were soft in the morning. You watched him even put chapstick on before going to bed. He wanted make sure his lips were kissable in the morning as he wanted his morning kiss.
You kissed him back, his hand went down to your hips and he tugged on the shirt you wore to bed pulling you on top of him. Your hair falls as a curtain over your face and his. He brushes his fingers through your hair, moving it back around your shoulder as he continued to kiss you.
Your legs were on either side of him as you pulled away, sitting on top of him as you glanced down at how beautiful he looked. A few strands of hair fell on is forehead, his sleepy loving gaze looked back at you, the smile he wore made your heart flutter every time and his hands were on your hips where he traced the small skin underneath your shirt.
" You're so pretty" you tell him. A chuckle erupted from his chest.
" You're beautiful" he says, running his fingers through your hair as he looked up at you. He was in love with you. You were his person and mornings with you was his favorite.
You leaned down placing kisses slowly up to his chest. You feel him shiver underneath you. Dacre watches as your lips made their way up to his neck and to his lips where he kissed you back, but he flipped you over that you laid your back on the bed while he was on top.
He kissed you with so much passion and so much love that it made your head cloud when he pulled away, nuzzling his face into your neck.
"You're my favorite" you wrap your arms around him and ran your fingers up and down his spine. " That tickles" he giggles as he moves on top of you before placing a kiss on your neck.
" You're my favorite, too" Dacre says as he lips go from your neck to your cheek to your other cheek to your nose to your chin to your eyelids, both of them, to your forehead and then a pack on your lips.
Sudden noise interrupted the moment between the two of you making the both of you laugh. It was your stomach grumbling already.
" Come on, let's go make that tummy happy with food" Dacre removes himself on top of you and the comforter drops from his shoulder revealing that he slept in his boxers. They are slightly hung on his hips and your mouth waters at the sight.
He does notices the hunger look on your face, a smirk grazes his lips as he stands up from the bed offering his hand for you to take. Your eyes roam over him. Taking it in on how beautiful he looked in the mornings.
When you made no moments, he leaned back on the bed and hovers over you. He leans down to peck your lips.
" Your tummy is waiting" he sings poking your stomach causing you to squirm. You lean up taking his hand that he offered you as he lets you up, but your pouting.
" What?" He asks, his eyebrows knitted together in confusion. Has he done something wrong?
" turn around" still confused on what you mean, he does as he's told as he turns around. He puts two and two when you latch onto his back and wrap your legs around him. He takes a hold of your legs as he carries you piggy style to the kitchen, but he runs there pretending to drop you as he enters the kitchen, laughing.
" That's not funny" you put your arms across your chest as you playfully glare at him. " I'm sorry" he stands in between your legs as he puckers his lips for a kiss. You turn your head away from him pretending to be mad. His hand reaches out to move the hair away from your neck, the brush of his fingers against your neck makes you shiver. He leans down brushing his lips against your neck that was exposed to him, laying small kisses there. You loved the feeling of his lips on your skin, anywhere really.
You gasped as you felt his teeth nip at the spot that he placed kisses on. Your hand moves to his shoulder, holding him there as he continues to mark you. His tongue licks over the spot he nicked soothing the burn. Your other hand goes into his hair, taking a hold of it as you tug causing him to groan.
You tug his head back exposing his neck to you. Your lips attach to his neck, placing small feather kisses across his neck. Your lips dance over his Adam's apple, nipping it on there. He moans as you do, his ands squeezing your waist. His hand goes into your hair, taking your hair into his fist as he tugs causing you to moan.
" You don't play fair, Montgomery" he smirks, small whimper escapes from him from the loss of your lips on his neck.
" We're just getting started, baby" he says as he pulls you off the counter, you wrap your legs around his waist as he takes you back into the bedroom.
Breakfast was long forgotten.
