Birthday Girl
short but sweet, enjoy it! and again happy bday to out Italian sunshine <3
Today was a pretty special day, it was your girlfriends 24th birthday and you were convinced in treating her the whole day. She wasn't in the mood to do anything fancy this year, so you two decided to stay in and go for dinner in the evening with her family. The blonde was still fast asleep with her head snuggled into your neck and her arm around your midsection. Usually, you'd prepare some breakfast but you also knew that she would get up as soon as she didn't feel your warmth anymore. You gently started drawing shapes on her back as you heard soft sighs coming from the Italian.
"Good morning birthday girl"
You whispered as you placed a sweet kiss on the top of her head.
"Morning baby"
She mumbled still half asleep as her arm around you tightened. You pulled her closer and started peppering her with kisses, trying to catch each freckle on her face.
"Y/n stop"
She giggled as she finally started opening her eyes.
"Happy Birthday amore"
You smiled brightly at her, Alessia now matching your smile. She wrapped her arms around your shoulders pulling you into a hug.
"Thank you my love"
She replied sweetly as she placed a kiss on your cheek. You watched the blonde on top of you as you drew circles on her thighs.
"What do you want for breakfast?"
"Hmm.. what about waffles?"
You smiled sweetly knowing it has become a tradition to make each other waffles for breakfast on every special occasion. Since today was a special day, it definitely included waffles.
"With strawberries?"
You asked. She nodded smiling brightly.
"Alright c'mon"
While you got started on the waffles, Alessia facetimed her family and made sure to show off your cooking skills which only made you blush.
"Love you luca"
Was the last thing you heard before the Italian sat down on the counter in front of you. She sneaked some strawberries in between while telling you about what she talked about with with her brother. As she ate up all the strawberries she took some more out of the fridge and started cutting them up while you handled the waffles.
The warm stack of waffles were waiting on the counter as you watched the blonde take her time to cut up the fruit. The silence being interrupted by the sound of your stomach.
"Less let me do it"
You chuckled as she looked at you offended.
"I can do it myself"
She huffed playfully as she turned her back on you to start cutting them again. You wrapped your hands softly around her hips and pulled yourself closer to her. The blonde immediately tensing up as she felt the distance between you close.
"Let me do it please"
You whispered into her ear while leaving soft kisses on her neck and jaw. The Italian closed her eyes enjoying the feeling as she melted into your touch.
"Is that a ye-"
You were cut off by Alessia turning around and pressing her lips on you. The softness of her lips and the strawberry taste took over your whole senses, making you pick your girlfriend up to place her on the counter. Standing in between her legs you continued to pepper soft kisses on her lips. Both of you got interrupted by your stomach grumbling again, indicating that it was indeed time for the waffles now.
After you finished eating you decided to give her your present. It took you some time to get the perfect present, but once you saw the necklace with the gold plated strawberry charm you were convinced that this was made for less.
"Here you go my love"
You handed her a small red box and watched as her eyes lit up. As she opened it the biggest smile took over her face making her eyes crinkle and nose scrunch up. She knew how much strawberries reminded you of her and how you always talked about the flavour of her chapstick, so this meant a lot to her.
"I love it"
She squealed as she threw herself into you arms.
"Can you help me put it on?"
"Of course, turn around"
She did as you told and once the necklace was on her she hugged you again placing another kiss on your cheek.
"Thank you Y/n I love it"
She smiled softly at you as you still held her close.
"Anything for you less"
You smiled back

Sweet Birthday.
rushed one shot for tighnari’s bday </3 happy bday my favorite fox boy💕
pairing: tighnari x gn!reader
warnings: none
A/N: this was really rushed… I really need to stop writing last minute. i’m not proud of this at all but i hope you enjoy it! P.S. i have requests open! dont be afraid to request pleaseee id really appreciate it :3
Tumblr media
His birthday… It was his birthday. The day you promised yourself that you would confess your true feelings to him. Presents were prepared beforehand and a handwritten letter of your feelings for him, they were all in your bag.
You stood at the entrance to his room and observed Tighnari. His back faced you as he did whatever he was doing, perhaps some experiment to do with plants. You held on tight to the strap of your bag and gulped deeply, the ounce of confidence was long gone from your body. The fear had set in and prevented you from making any movements.
Tighnari had already heard your quiet footsteps but said not a word. He was curious as to why you were trying to be discreet.
“Master Tigh- Oh, It’s you! What are you standing here for? Go inside!”
You jumped and turned around frantically, it was Collei. She had noticed you standing there for a bit from away and guessed you were up to something. She decided to give you a hand because she couldn’t stand you being such a scaredy cat.
Tighnari also now faced the two of you, “Hello Collei, I see you’ve come back from patrol. Is there something you need?” he asked. He glanced at you, then set his gaze back on Collei. “Well, there was, but I remembered something I have to do so see you later Master Tighnari!” She waved to the both of you before running off.
You cursed to yourself and took note of her sneaky wink at you, she knew. You blushed a bit but brushed it off, you had to thank her later for this. Tighnari cleared his thought which made you look at him, “You’re smart enough to guess what I’m going to ask you,” he said playfully and raised an eyebrow.
You awkwardly laughed and placed your hand on your nape rubbing it, “I can guess, but uh…” Your other hand fiddled with the strap of your bag while you looked down at your feet in embarrassment.
He smiled at your shy behavior, he hasn’t seen this side of you a lot. He found it cute. “What’re ya stutterin’ for? Spit it out already. The clocks ticking,” he said as he crossed his arms and tapped his foot.
You walked closer to him and now stood in front of him, “Happy birthday… I know you seem a little too busy to celebrate it at the moment but I just wanted to wish you,” you said and stared into his eyes with a bright smile.
He blinked and his smile grew. Such a simple act of kindness had his heart radiating with warmth. “Thank you a lot. I appreciate that you took time out of your day to wish me, I’m usually busy on my birthday but I don’t mind. I take time for myself at the end of the day to enjoy,” he exclaimed and pat your head.
Your heart paced at his gesture. It was so sweet and it made your stomach fill with butterflies. You then quickly shook it off then decided to show the presents you got.
You walked over to his desk and he followed. He was about to speak before he watched your hand reach into your bag and pull out the gifts placing them one by one on his desk.
“I Uhm, got these for you. Flowers from Liyue and Inazuma. They reminded me of you a bit, and they were pretty so I figured you’d like them. And working gloves I made myself with the best material I could find too. They aren’t the most extravagant, but I hope you like them. I put a lot of thought into them,” you showed off the gifts to him and didn’t realize you had also placed the letter on the table.
It was the first thing he noticed and grabbed it, quickly skimming over it. You continued to explain the other little gifts you got all while he read the letter. Your gaze was away from him and you were finished explaining. You then waited for him to say something in suspense, praying he’d like the gifts.
But he stayed silent, it was silent for a bit which scared you a little. You prepared yourself and then looked at him expecting to see him disappointed but you were mistaken. His eyes were wide, and soon yours were too.
You saw the letter in his hand and you panicked. You quickly reached for the letter in his hand but he dodged it. The panic in your system turned into sadness as tears formed in your eyes, you were now embarrassed and scared.
“You like me..?”
You stepped back from him and your breath hitched, you were speechless. “I’m sorry..” were the only words you managed to say. Your fight or flight responses were now active and were telling you to run for it, but he stopped you from doing so, with a hug.
A tight embrace as he nuzzled into your shoulder, his ears squished against your face but he didn’t care. Your body froze and you stopped breathing for a few seconds. You’ve never felt so many emotions in one day, the constant shock was sure to bite you in the ass later.
“I don’t understand feelings quite well, but I know well enough that I feel the same for you. I always have. I always thought you were just some other clumsy forest ranger like Collei, but once I got to know you well, I fell for you. Others told me it was obvious, but it seems to be a different case for you.” Tighnari explained as his fingers traced slow circles into your back and his tail wagged happily.
You wasted no time wrapping your arms around him and let out a sob of relief, you felt the happiness explode within you. He caressed your back as you cried, you tried to speak but what came out were jumbled words instead.
He laughed at your struggles and hushed you, “I can’t understand a word you’re saying, you dunce.”
“I love you so much.” You choked out between your sobs, you couldn’t have ever been happier. The rollercoaster of emotions was worth it because now, you have the man you thought you were pining for months.
He sighed pretending that he was annoyed, “I love you so much too, now please stop crying. I get you’re happy but I don’t want my precious sweater stained with tears and snot.”
He was now stuck with you because you had no intentions of leaving him. It’s not like he wasn’t thinking the same as well. You were stuck with each other, stuck in love.

Drenched in Darkness: prologue
Tumblr media
Bruce wayne x f!waterbender!reader
A/N: Well… its been a while, sorry. Its my bday tomorrow so here is a little present: my new series. (that i will finish unlike some others that still need to be finished) Ill try to upload every week. i think every saturday. enough bs. let me know what you thought because i dont know if i can write anymore and i promise the next chapters will be longer.
Warnings: child abandonment, no bruce.. yet, o yeah and murder
-
I had lived in Gotham my whole life, at least as long as I could remember. Like most people here my life wasn’t so easy. But that is normal, especially for 80 percent of Gotham. My mother abandoned a younger me at the orphanage, the people working there had told me that my dad wasn’t with her. She had left her contact information with them.
But when I was old enough to try and look for her I found out that she had lied about almost everything on the filled in survey. So much for a happy family reunion.
I hated living at the orphanage. I had not hated it my whole life. I only started hating it when weird accidents started to happen and all the kids around me started pointing at me when one of the caretakers would ask what had happened. Water pipes would suddenly burst, the water in a glass next to a bed would splash on the wall at the other side of the room, rain would turn into little ice shards.
By chance all those things happened when I was angry. Throwing my little arms around and screaming or shouting. Nine year old kids had not gone through as much stuff as adults. But they could make the connection between my anger and the accidents. Before the Waynes donated money to the orphanage regularly, it was short staffed. So hardly any of the adults saw what was happening. Except for that one time.
An elderly  woman who had worked there since I could remember had seen “something weird” happen twice. After the second time she took me to her little office. I was eleven years old. I already knew that I wasn’t like the other kids. So I tried to avoid confrontations and kept mostly to myself. Kids can be awful but kids without supervision are cruel. The bullying went on and on. Sometimes I snapped. But the longer it went on the longer the periods became between each outburst.
The elderly woman was named Elsie. Everyone called her Miss Elly. She taught me to stay calm when I was afraid or angry. I followed her around while she was doing her chores. The other employees didn’t say anything about it. I loved her like a child loves her mother. At least I think so. She called the things I could do to water a little gift, and tried to help me practice with little plastic cups filled with water. (Glass was too dangerous, because I had let the glass explode when I was frustrated.)  And that I shouldn’t share this secret with everyone unless I was old enough to know the consequences.  
She died from a heart attack when I was seventeen. At least that is what all the other caretakers had told us. But I saw the crime scene tape. I was one of the oldest there and not everyone could read. And the way the caretakers said it without looking us in the eyes was weird.
So I decided to find out what really happened. When I snuck in Miss Elly’s room I immediately smelled the iron and decay in the room. When I turned on my flashlight everything was red. The bedsheets were covered in blood. Bloodsplatters were on the wall next to the bed and there were smudges of blood coming from the bed leading to her tiny desk in the corner. I always assumed she had tried to call someone while she was bleeding out. Because she kept the landline phone there in the corner on top of her desk.
I hurried back to my bed. The police came back the next day at the end of the same day the tape was gone and the room was cleaned.
I lasted a week there without Miss Elly before I ran away from the orphanage. I would be sent to a women’s shelter if I still wasn’t adopted before I turned eighteen. My chances of being adopted were slim to none. The only thing that kept me there for seven more days was to come up with a plan. I was hired at a restaurant as a dishwasher, on the rainy days I would stay at shelters and on days where it didn’t I would sleep on rooftops in wealthier neighborhoods. I still went to Gotham City High Public Highschool. The orphanage didn’t try to contact me; they rather spent Thomas Wayne’s money on other kids.
I didn’t blame them. I could take care of myself.
I only used my gift if it was absolutely necessary, mostly against creepy men. At seventeen I had underestimated the real world. Because it was even worse than the orphanage. Thankfully there were hardly any rumors about that.
Now I am in my twenties, I got my own place, I hardly used them at all.
Until I got fired as a chef because of the flooding. Now I rob wealthy families with corrupt ties to their wealth.

Table For One
WOOO!! ITS MY BDAY!!! I decided to finally finish an old wip of mine as a gift to myself.
This is actually the first fic id ever written over a year and a half ago But i was too scared to post it. It took a lot of editing and re-writing but i can now say im pretty confident with it.
Tagging (dm or comment to be added/removed): @obsidianfr3sk @greenalmond  @galaxy-creationz  @healing-winston-pratt @justsomerandomficsforrenegades
Almost an hour later (Yes, this was taking longer than expected.) he got a quick chime on his Renegade communicator from Prism. It was a brief message but the only word he caught was ‘Simon’, before the man himself stormed into his office.
There was a slight discomfort in Hugh telling him he was forgetting something important. He tried to wrap his head around it, but it was most likely another paper he needed to sign or something to approve. Sitting at his desk, he continued his work. The uneasy feeling was still present, but this time he brushed it off. Tonight he would get everything done and be able to go home in peace. 
And he was not happy. 
For as long as Hugh knew him, Simon radiated confidence, even when he didn’t completely feel it, but now he looked crushed. His eyes were rimmed red and his face was flushed, like he’d been crying… a lot. His usual tall stance was replaced by Simon holding himself, like he was on the edge of breaking.
 “Oh, My Love, what’s wro-.” Hugh cut himself off, as Simon seemed to fume at his words. Hugh took in his slightly formal attire.
It wasn’t a stray paper he’d forgotten. 
Hugh could already tell he’d be in loads of trouble, “Dinner,” he mumbled, lowering his head in shame. He looked back at Simon, who was breathing hard. He has his jaw set and his eyebrows knit together, and Hugh could tell more tears were threatening to fall. 
Simon was beyond furious, but it hurt even more that his husband completely forgot about him.
“Yeah,” Simon said sourly, “Dinner.”
They both stayed silent for a moment, and Hugh knew his actions would cause a bigger punishment than just having to sleep on the couch tonight.
Simon continued to look at Hugh for some sort of explanation. Maybe an apology? Hugh looked at his desk for a moment, he really didn’t know what to say because the outright truth was pathetic. Forgetting?! About the love of his life? 
He met Simon's eyes again, Simon crossed his arms and looked at him in a way that silently said what the hell?
Hugh took a breath, “Love,” he started softly, which caused Simon to scoff, “I’m sorry. I- um, I just- uh, just-” 
Simon cut him off, “You just what, Hugh? What was SO important that you completely bailed on me.” His voice getting a little louder with every word. 
There was another beat of silence, “Listen, I needed-” Hugh started, accidentally having it come out more fierce and sharp than he meant it to. He was instantly cut off again, regretting the start to that. 
Simon was not in the mood for his crap excuses right now and not with that tone.
“NO!” Simon yelled, “DON’T GET TO TELL ME TO LISTEN” Simon took a breath, trying to calm himself, but failed miserably. He glared directly into Hugh’s eyes. “I- I waited for you. An HOUR, HUGH, AN HOUR!” Simon’s natural calm composure was gone, he was shaking now, and a few escaped tears rolling down his cheek. “30 MINUTES IN THE RESTAURANT, LOOKING LIKE A COMPLETE LOSER WHO GOT STOOD UP! AND THEN  ANOTHER 30 FOR YOU IN THE CAR! WHY DIDN'T YOU PICK UP YOUR PHONE? WHY DID YOU IGNORE ME?! WHY DID YOU FORGET ME?!” Simon started sobbing into his clenched fists, Hugh rushed to him but Simon put a hand out to stop him from getting closer. “I had to call Prism and have her tell me that you were still here! WORKING! YOU PROMISED ME WE WOULD SPEND TIME TOGETHER! THAT WE’D FINALLY GET A BREAK! BECAUSE I NEEDED YOU!... an-and I thought you needed me too.” So much anger dissolved into sadness after his outburst, Hugh gently grabbed Simon’s outstretched hand and pulled him into a tight embrace. There was a moment of hesitation before Simon buried his face in Hugh's chest. They stood there for a few minutes, only Simon’s crying echoing in the room.
Hugh knew that an apology was worthless at the moment. He messed up, again. This wasn’t the first time something like this had happened. Not that they had too much spare time to start with, but most of their canceled dates were because of him. It was worse at the moment, because this was the first time he actually forgot.  
There was no way to tell how long they stood there, but it was long enough for Simon’s tears to slow and pull away from Hugh. 
Hugh straightened himself a little and looked down at his husband. He was never good with people crying and sadness, but he tried anyway. Hopefully, something was better than nothing right now, although it was unlikely, “I’m so sorry, I had so much work to do. I should have remembered to notify you,” Hugh said slowly, trying to comfort him.
Simon let loose a humorless laugh, “No, Hugh, you should have come,” Simon whispered drly, but the sadness was all the same.
He looked up at Hugh “You shouldn’t have called earlier to cancel. You should have come and been with me.”
“Hon-”
“No, don't sweet talk me. I want you to tell me why you find it impossible put a pause on Captain Chromium and take time to be my husband.” A few more tears rolled down his already damp cheeks. Hugh could feel tears welling up in his eyes. He felt so ashamed for causing his husband this hurt. He was heartbroken because of him. Simon continued with a wobbly voice, “I want my husband, Hugh, I miss him.”
Hugh thought of some reassuring things to say, but nothing could come out of his mouth. He could promise and swear that it'll never happen again, hold Simon tight and plead for forgiveness. 
But it wouldn't be real. They both would know it deep down. It would happen again because Simon was right, as usual. He just couldn't put a pause to his hero persona. 
Simon would ask a thousand more times and Hugh still wouldn’t be able to answer why. 
Simon took Hugh’s silence as the end of this argument for now. If there was nothing for Hugh to say, there was nothing Simon could do. 
“You finish what you need to do,” Simon said with more sniffles, looking at the floor. “I'm going home.” 
“Wait-” Hugh’s voice cracked. He didn’t want him to leave. Not like this.
Simon snapped back, “Why should I? Wait?! For how much longer?” Simon gave Hugh another questioning look but he went quiet again. 
Hugh watched as Simon fiddled with his hands and walked back to Hugh, and grabbed his hand that was limp at his side. Hugh looked at Simon confused as he placed something in Hugh’s hand and closed it for him. Simon used both of his hands to hold Hugh’s and brought it to his mouth, placing a delicate kiss to it. 
“Return it to me when you can be my husband again,” Simon whispered into his hand with closed eyes. 
Then he left. 
Hugh allowed his tears to fall when he opened his hand, the feeling of failure spreading through his body. 
Hugh couldn’t tell when, but he’d ended up kneeling on the floor, unable to take his eyes off Simon’s wedding ring shining back at him.
.

Right back to agnst.
Its short but i enjoyed re-writing it to better reflect my writing now (i love my old fics but i had some things to work on lmao)
I hope you liked it!!

Ikeprince Leon Fic - Bday 2022
Warnings: maybe slightly NSFW, not for minors
Pairing: MC (Emma) x Leon (bday boy)
Word count: 1850
A/N: Today is a very special day for me. It’s my best ikeprince boy bday!!!!
I usually just write fics for myself, and honestly, I was not gonna post this either. But yesterday I was reading his 2022 bday story (I still need to read his pov today), and when I was reading it, I got shocked that some things I wrote in my fic were really similar to cybird’s story. Y’ALL I SWEAR I DID NOT COPY CYBIRD HAHAHA. Maybe I just know Leon a lot? LMAO
I understood that as a sign of Leon telling me to post my bday present to him. 
I could tell which part of the fic is similar to cybird’s, but I don’t think I’ll lol. Maybe some people didn't have the time to read his bday story yet.
I chose to user MC's default name here. But that's not the name I use in game or when I write just for myself.
I added a NSFW warning, but to be quite honest, there is nothing that explicit. But you know, better safe than sorry.
And Happy Bday Leon. I love you <3.
Tumblr media
It's early in the morning in Rhodolite, but a certain prince is not that excited today.
Leon is supposed to do his daily chores, but the prince is slacking more than he usually does. He is reading and signing some official documents at a snail's pace.
Leon - (looks at the window from their faction's room) - Hmm, the weather looks nice, but I'm bored. Where is Emma, anyway?
Leon - She told me yesterday we would have some fun cuz it's my bday, but I didn't see her anywhere...
Meanwhile, Emma is busy setting up her surprise for her lover in an isolated basic cottage she rented so they could celebrate Leon's bday. 
Emma - Great! It looks like I bought everything from the shopping list.
Emma - I suppose Leon probably figured it out about the surprise, but I can't get disheartened. It WILL be a nice present for his bday. I'm sure of it!
Maid 1 - My Lady, is there anything else you need? We can clean the house for you or help you prepare the dishes.
Maid 2 - Indeed. You shouldn't waste your time on housework. You need to be spectacular for your prince. You must choose a fancy outfit for this special occasion!
Emma - Oh, thank you so much! But this is my birthday present to him. I would rather do this myself. I'm not an illustrious chef, but I'm confident I can make some delicious food for tonight.
Maid 1 - As you wish. If you need anything, don't hesitate to call us. We'll head back to the palace then.
Emma - Of course. Thank you again. And if by chance he tries to talk to you, be careful. He is such a smooth talker! He'll try to find out more details about today's event.
Maid 2 - Hahaha. That's indeed something prince Leon would do. We'll keep your secret, my Lady! 
The sun is going down on the horizon, and Leon is getting sulky. Where is his Lady, anyway? He waited all day, but no sign of her yet.
Leon - Ah, somehow I managed to finish all that paperwork, but where is my reward? I can't wait anymore!
Leon - *sign* I even tried to deceive the maids, but they didn't say a word. I know they were with Emma. But she is clearly not here.
Leon - Is she out of town? Or maybe she went to her former house to get something there? Hmmm
Leon - I wanna leave the palace to look out for her, but I don't wanna miss one another. She can't be that far. It wouldn't make sense. She is setting something up, so she must be close.
Leon is impatient and decides to look out a bit far from Rhodolite to find his girl. When he was setting up his horse, he notices someone spying on him.
Leon - You probably realized I'm not in a good mood today, so you better show yourself.
Emma - Hi, stranger! *chuckles*
Emma - Sorry I took so long. Are you ready for your surprise?
Leon gets speechless for a moment. Emma looks stunning, and he doesn't know what to do with himself.
Emma - Leon?
Leon - What?
Emma - hahaha what is wrong with you? You look petrified. Did I scare you?
Leon - Sorry, you look so gorgeous. I just didn't know how to react.
Emma - ah Leon...
Leon is just a few inches away from Emma. He seizes the opportunity and grabs her by the waist just to make sure she won't try to escape.
He kisses her passionately just like he always does. He missed her so much.
Emma is in such a trance that is hard for her to not get caught up in this moment, but she must be strong because the night is just getting started.
Emma - Ahhh Leon... wait a minute...
Leon - *chuckles* what? You didn't like it?
Emma - You're impossible! Stop teasing me. You see... I have a mission here! We need to get going now.
Leon - hmm. I think we can have lots of fun here... I don't wanna waste more time...
Emma - hehe me neither. I wanna be with you too. But first things first.
Emma - Here, let me put this on.
Leon - Huh?
Emma takes a blindfold from her purse and tries to cover Leon's eyes.
Leon - What is this? Are you playing games with me or?
Emma - hahaha maybe. You don't wanna try it on? I swear it will be fun. I just need you to be blindfolded cuz I don't want you to see yet where we are going.
Leon - Ohhh so that's why. It's part of your surprise then? Hmm. I won't say no to that.
Emma - Hehe I promise you won't regret it. Now be a good boy and let me put it on for you.
Emma - there, I think it's perfect. You are not seeing anything, are you?
Leon - Hehe am I?
Emma - Stop it! No cheating! Did you understand, Leon?
Leon - *chuckles* yes, ma'am. I won't do that.
Emma - Okay, I'll be your guide now. We are riding on my horse. I hope you don't mind.
Leon - Not at all. Do your thing.
A few minutes later, Emma and Leon were getting close to their final destination.
Emma - So like I was saying... Leon!!!!!! What are you doing?
Leon - What? I was just holding your waist so I wouldn't fall.
Emma - That's not what you were doing. Stop touching my breasts. I'm trying to focus here, you know?
Leon - What? I didn't touch your breasts.
Emma - You sure did. OMG, you are impossible!
Leon - Geez, I'm sorry, but I can't see here. Clearly not my fault.
Leon - This blindfold is making things hard for me. Are you punishing me for what?
Emma - I AM NOT... Stop with your antics. You are so sneaky!
Emma - If you could just wait for a few more... Ahhh
Leon - Hehehe what was that?
Emma - OMG LEON!
Leon - What now?
Emma - this is not the time for you to touch on my private parts. You are enjoying this situation too much!
Leon - since when I did that?
Emma - JUST NOW!
Leon - I did not. I'm here behaving myself just like you asked.
Leon - I thought you'd be happy to be so close to me. Didn't you miss me?
Emma - Sometimes I question myself why I date you.
Leon - Because I'm a lady killer? And charming? And strong? And...
Emma - Shut up, okay! We're almost there.
Emma - there! OMG finally! We're here. You just can't stay still for a few minutes, can you?
Leon - Of course, I can. See? *chuckles*
Emma - Humph... Let me just take this blindfold off before you eat me alive here.
Emma removes the blindfold while they are still on the horse. When Leon opens his eyes, he sees how pretty the setting is. 
They are in a village ruled by Rhodolite, but it's probably the first time he sees visits that particular area.
Emma chose a simple cottage a bit far away from the main village. There is a forest surrounding the house. Greenery and big trees everywhere.
Emma - So... What do you think?
Leon - Wow, it's amazing! First time I've seen this place, to be honest.
Emma - Wanna check it out?
Leon - Of course, I do. Let me get out of the horse first. I'll catch you.
Emma - Thanks.
Emma - So... let me show you around. I've been here a couple of times now ahaha.
Leon - So this is where you've been hiding from me?
Emma - Hiding? I don't do such things hehe
Emma - I just think we needed a change of pace for this special day.
Leon - I see. I'm not gonna lie that I liked your idea a lot.
Emma - I made dinner for us tonight. You work so hard. I just wanted to spoil you. But just a little bit. Don't get too used to it.
Leon - Don't make me fall in love even more with you.
Emma - That's your problem, not mine ahaha
Emma - So why don't you go take a shower while I set the table for us? The dinner is ready but I just need to warm up the food. But it won't take much.
Leon - And you're not coming? You just said I was tired. I need help. *chuckles*
Emma - hahaha no way. I know what you are planning. I'll wait for you here.
After taking a shower, Leon heads to the dining room and sees an exquisite table full of food.
He stands still next to the door just admiring how hard she worked to prepare all that.
Emma - Leon, come on! What are you doing standing there? The food is gonna get cold, you know.
Leon - Ah, I'm coming.
Emma - So, you want me to serve you? What would you like to try first?
Leon - I thought you were the main dish?
Emma - Leon!!
Leon - hahaha sorry, I can't help it. Anything really. I'm sure everything tastes delicious.
Leon - Hmm this really looks good. Thank you.
Emma - Hehe I'm glad you like it.
Emma - Leon...
Leon - What?
Emma - Happy birthday! Thank you for giving me the honor to celebrate it with you. And I'm sorry if I stole you away from your siblings today.
Leon gets speechless with Emma's cuteness. She is so spontaneous and adorable. Although he is a man who speaks his mind, she knows how to make him stumble over his own words.
Leon - There are so many things I wanna say to you right now. But none of them would exactly convey how much I really love you.
Leon, who is sitting next to Emma, gets up, pulls her chair, and carries her to their bed (which is decorated with a red silk quilt and printed with black lion paws at its ends).
Leon - Thank you for being the best partner I could ever ask for. I feel bad for being so grumpy all day when you were working so hard for my happiness.
Leon - I love you so much that I just can't not touch you anymore. Your generosity and your effort just make me desire you even more.
Leon - And I'm sorry I usually don't have enough time for you. You deserve more than that. But I'm too selfish to let you go.
Leon - So let me shower you with love. Like only a beast could do.
Leon kisses Emma over and over again to the point she can't think straight anymore. He will treat her well tonight because that's what a lioness deserves. Nothing less than that.

It was a hard week. Had a job interview last friday, that initially went well. They said they'd have their programmer talk to me following week to test my skills, but they missed their deadline by two days, and called to inform me that they're looking for someone with more experience.
That would make perfect sense, because I proved to not know shit about fuck, but the only technical guy that was present during the interview liked me, said that they'll teach me everything and repeated two times that he'd be fine with me being onboard.
The interview made me positive about the job, so I decided to spend the entire weekend on programming, however, as I said before, that turned out to be futile. I hate unnecessarily coding 'by the book' stuff that doesn't interest me in the slightest, especially in a language I don't use on a daily basis anymore. I don't learn much by that and after such a negative outcome I subconsciously get rid of any knowledge I might've acquired during that time.
I don't write long posts as often as I would like to, and I'm not ok with my sporadic post being so negative, but I needed to rant. Last night I had a moment to myself, with a bottle of wine. A week has passed since the interview, I had a birthday this week (happy bday to me), posted some drafted screenshots that make me happy whenever I look at them, made progress in writing a backstory for Crystal. And all of that is really cool, in spite of my initial frustration. I realized that it was a first time this week when I really slowed down and summarized everything that was going on in my head. It was kinda cathartic.
So now I'm back to my scheduled programming. I snapped some cool pics in Cyberpunk (including Crystal during her nomad days - her looks were quite different), there's a post on the way relating the Combat Zone in Pacifica, and I'd love to write some posts about my own lore, but I can't write that well, so I can't promise anything.
It's only fair to finish this post with an unrelated screenshot from Control (which I haven't properly started yet, but I had to check out how it runs on my hardware). It looks as if it was made specifically for me, I love the atmosphere so far.

Fear
1/5 around 7:48pm checked ig page found my initials and pixiset gone. Sometime last year in Baltimore my handle was changed to my initials.
Last December trip felt like a visit which I thought was ok. Did not do much but stayed at his place or mine. Went to celebrate Francis’ bday stayed over unexpectedly cuz alcohol and got into big fight.
Just few minutes ago texted if he still loved me, or if he was hiding me, or if he was talking to someone else. Idk, possibility of last part. Realized too late I should have not texted that, but ok that I did but been on my mind. Impulsive but current evidence leads me to believe he does not want me public. Fb relationship status still ok.
Not gonna lie went into panic mode, heart racing and mind isolating. Knew I had work to do but couldn’t keep thoughts/mind straight. Also waiting for a response is anxiety-inducing. Texted nessa right away but not about issue, just asked her how she was doing on scale of 1-10. Then texted heba too the same.
Was still panicking. Also alone and already experienced this type of feeling before- scared to feel its full intensity. Trying to calm myself. I am above this. Breathing off but still rhythmic. Maybe I shouldn’t have coffee (just brewed). Typing helps. Sigh ok.
Now anticipating response but it could go two ways maybe more. One- he’ll say no and ask why. Two- same as one but will call me crazy (gaslighting but I don’t know if he knows what that is. I accused him of this before and he did not react well to it or maybe doesn’t know what it is but doesn’t like being accused).
Worst case scenario all of this is true. I need to stay calm. That’s it, that’s the advice I need to tell myself. Legs stopped shaking as I typed that out. I need to believe that advice. So if all true, what do I do? Let’s say it ends??? What do I do? I don’t know. I have to distract myself. Can’t let my heart sink too deep. I still have a program to finish. My family spent money on me to help me achieve my goals. Thousands of dollars. Leased car. I HAVE to stay focus.
What if parts are true? This is hardest scenario. Not knowing what’s the truth or lie. It even hurts to think he’d lie, because that’s not his nature. I feel ashamed for thinking that. I still have to advocate for myself if this is the scenario.
What if all are false? Every answer to my question resulting in “no”. Wow, that would make me look crazy!!!! Lol. But you know it’s not easy to accept the answers so easily, like “no? Okay!” There are reasons why I asked. Am I suspicious or suspecting something?? I didn’t suspect during my time back home during holidays. And that’s the hard part. Holidays are supposed to be happy- it masks problems.
Rule for me is to not talk to other people about this. May sound crazy but also caused damage same time last year. No one’s words calmed me or made me feel better. And I talked to more than a handful of ppl. So not helpful. That’s why I texted nessa and heba but didn’t introduce my worries. I just needed someone to text.
Anyway I’m procrastinating now with my presentation but this was a dent in my productivity. I cannot handle this stress again…. I know I will not do well if my anxiety/depression relapses.
Stay calm.

Haha but you will still have eyebags! You can't lose them ever or we can't be a duo anymore 🤣
I started work from home when Covid started. Since I worked in retail before this, I didn't want to risk it.
You're never too old to have little pleasures in life. Yes and no. Sometimes I know what I want but then I think through it and decide that it might not be worth it so I change my mind. But yeah, I buy myself stuff sometimes. Especially if I know I have enough in my budget, then I do a little splurge. How about you? Do you get yourself stuff or do you just mostly buy stuff for your daughter and husband?
I haven't thought much about a Christmas present for me this year. At least nothing materialistic.. I've thought about wanting another tattoo though. It's time to get more lol
I can actually believe that... but what is crazy is that it happened a long time before you actually met your husband?? When you met him, did you feel like a deja vu feeling that you've met him before but don't know where?
That's also my toxic trait.. I think too much. To the point where my thoughts become my downfall and instead of communicating what the problem is, I distance myself. I assume a lot of negative thoughts towards me that others might be thinking.
Brainstorming? Another idea for a fic in the works? Instead of finishing the ones you need to do? Sheeeeeesh just kidding hahaha you do what you can!
-CuriousGeorge
Good morning righty!😆 sorry i fell asleep last night. How r u?
Dont worry, we r still the eyebags duo.hahaha.
Ah i see yeah i know what u meant. Covid kinda ruin everything.
Haha yeah we r never too old to have fun but tamagochi is a little too late.lol. sometimes i think that i want a nintendo switch but i dont really need it. I barely have time to sit,let alone play video games.haha. i even only play my baseball video games a view times when Em was younger, probably like a year or or 1.5 year ago. Lol.
Yeah, im like u too. Sometimes i know what i want but when im about to buy it, i think that it's too late or i dont really need it. Thinks that i buy pretty often are shoes n jacket/hoodies/cardigans. Hahaha. I cant help it. I love them! 😆😅
I used to buy some stuff for me or him. But now, we r more focused on buying her stuff. I rarely asked for gifts, everytime people ask what do i want for christmas or bday, i never know how to answer.
I'm actually an easy to please girl. Even just little gift thats probably nothing for others can be very meaningful for me. I dont care about anything fancy or expensive. I like anything simple.
What's funny is,people always tell me that im really good at picking gifts for others because i pay attention to little details what people like or dislike.
But my husband n i has been kinda stop buying each other gifts(not intentionally), we start to not knowing what to give each other. I dont really know what happened.lol.
Yeah the dream happened waaay before i met him. Even before i found out that i'm gonna move to US. Even before i met my ex gf. Lol. Somethings can be crazy enough to believe sometimes.😅
Haha another things we have in common..overthinking.. im like u.. n overthinking actually sucks.. i hate it when it happens.
Haha i was brainstorming on my dark fic with nat that i hv been working on for a month now. Lol. It has reached 9K words.
How tall r u? Im just wondering. Also u said u have tattoos? How many?
Next questions?
Cheerio!

This year carries over 30 suicidal letters written by me…. It’s hard but also interesting to think about the dark time that pushed me to write them.
I write them for my children, one letter for each bday until they turn 18. Idk why I decided it to be that way, I am not sure why I thought 18 was the right age to stop. I didn’t finish them all tho, but I am glad I didn’t. That means I changed my views and decided to do something about my mental health. They’re hidden, and I feel ashamed sometimes but I also use them as a reminder of aplace i never want to visit..ever again!
2022 has been so strange, I swear it doesn’t count. I have met my demons, we’ve all been in the same room looking at each other and I swear that has to be the worse feeling, things I never thought I’d go through, things I never thought I’d feel or say.. were felt and said! I met a version of me that I had never seen, but if we’re being honest, I think there’s an even darker version of my self… I stopped myself though. I stopped myself before it was too late. I don’t know that I can handle her, I don’t know that I’d like meeting her (the even darker me).
It almost felt like the realms of evil and good inside of me were fighting nonstop to see who would win, to see which one could stay in.. I think Good won, but that was just a battle, my anxiety and depression are still present. I feel better and sometimes I want to walk away thinking “it’s over, I’ve won, I’m ok”, but I’m far from ok, it is not over. It will take time to repair all the things I broke, to help all the places I visited in my head, places I never should of gone.
The reality is that, I can never unseen or “unfeel” all the things from 2022… mistakes were made, things were learnt and experiences were present only for me to see what I don’t want to be! This brings me back to that saying that goes something like “you can’t see light without darkness”, I guess I needed to get to that really dark place because that’s where I’ve been hiding, because that’s the only way I could appreciate the light. I don’t hate the villain in me, but I guess I was just surprised by her and how smart and tactical she can be. I guess I never really thought I’d be that kind of villain. At the same time, I do think the villain in me that was pushed to become one, it’s like the good in me and the harm I’ve done was because I couldn’t see another way out… like those likable villains?
She is still a person I don’t want to be, because she’s numb and careless… and the real me cares a lot… which also makes me realize I did need to meet my villain because I was caring for others too much, and sometimes for the wrong people and the wrong reasons too. Sorry! My thoughts are going 100mph and I can’t keep track, it’s hard! But I do have to say that I am glad that I am doing better, I am glad that I’m slowly recovering and even though I feels like good has “won” there are days where it feels like the two realms have merged and perhaps in starting to build a balance….

the acotar series is probably my favorite series of the last 5 years, and I just finished catching up on embers and light, and I wanted to tell you how much i've enjoyed it 💗 i've found myself thinking of little scenes and details just going about my daily life- that's how much i've truly loved it so far. i love how you made nesta's arc really impacting all illyrian women, instead of just a select few, bc it just has such a strong impact. i absolutely love Mas and Roksana so much (and Frawley and Lorain omg.. and the manticores!! lol i just keep adding on) 😭💗 i love your portrayal of nesta and cassian's relationship, and how you avoid dumb tropes, and really show cassian as a feminist thinker. i love how cassian "saves" nesta by giving her the space and support to save herself. this fic made me fall in love w cassian as a character so much more than i already had ugh 💗 i also thought nesta's inner struggles, and her overcoming them were so realistic and relatable, but still fit within the fantasy setting so smoothly. i loved how you weren't afraid to portray characters in a different light then we had seen them before (hem hem rhys) idk- i laughed, i cried, i had those little moments where i had to stop reading bc i was just so overwhelmed w emotion (the lullaby bday present) and i'm so tempted to just go back and start from the first chapter again, i just want to live in the little embers and light universe. this message was super disjointed lol but i wanted to just write all my thoughts out. thank you for working so hard on this beautiful fic and sharing it with all of us 💗💗💗
Oh my gosh, thank you so much! This is such a lovely anon to receive and my heart is full to bursting every time I hear someone enjoys the fic—but to know you think about it in daily life… I’m so thrilled!
What I love about writing Embers & Light is that it gave me the license to repair and grow relationships in a way that I felt was the most organic to me. And writing Nesta’s trauma arc and her healing process was just so emotional for me. I feel like we’ve all been broken at one point and have had to find a way to slowly repair ourselves, changed but different—better and enlightened in many ways. And I feel like Nesta needed the trauma to become who she actually was—Illyria and Cassian gave that to her <3

You and Me II || Harry Potter
Pairing: Draco Malfoy x Slytherin/Reader
Tumblr media
Summary: After years at Hogwarts, your life would really begin and nothing could be better than to start this new phase with your official birthday party, but the next day does not turn out quite as expected.
Warnings: For those who haven't read the first part yet, Tom Riddle is not Voldemort in this fic. The first wizard war was against another wizard but its consequences are still valid! Just pure fluff and an implied bit of smut.
Word Count: 3,0k
A/N: This is obviously the part two of You and Me, but it’s not necessarily related, so you can just read this one as a one shot but the first part gives you a lot of context for this, ok? ok then. (Happy really early Birthday Katie! I'd like to post this on your bday but I was too anxious for this. Hope you like it!)
Part I
Tumblr media
04/27/1997
"You're really not well, how can a person be in this state when their birthday is so close? I've tried to understand and still can't", the brunette's bored voice made itself present in the room for the 4th time in the day and as I prepared my answer, she held up her hand and delivered her own hypothesis first. "You can't be sad that we're finishing seventh year, I swear for Merlin's sake, if that's the case, I'll...", the words slipped slowly from her mouth, as did the calmness remaining in her.  
"Even though anything you have to say sounds like a lot of fun, it's not the case. I really want to start my own life, have my own job and all that. I'm just thinking a lot lately, too many things have happened, we've all changed so much", I didn't bother to look at her, still focused on the ceiling painted like a blue summer sky and she didn't mind asking permission to lie next to me on the bed. 
"We had to grow up eventually, although some took too long, in fact, I can point out for sure that half the boys still act like kids", we both laughed until our bellies ached.
"Well, good for us then because Draco and Blaise are not on that list and don't even dare look at me like that, you know he's changed a lot", I heard her amused giggles and already imagined what was coming. 
"I wasn't even going to say anything this time, it's really impressive how you just stick up for him, I hope it's the same with me", I frowned and looked at her as if she was out of her mind, and there were chances she really was. "Since when do you need protection from someone?". 
"I never said I needed it, but it's nice to know I have it", she shrugged without looking me in the eye and I decided it would be better to change the subject, because nothing good ever comes out of a Pansy, who is unseasy in any sense. 
"So, about your...," she started. "Pansy, what do you…”, I said at the same time, but I just smiled and waited in silence for what she had to say. 
"I was going to ask about your parents, you're going to have to live with them in a month, so how are you feeling about that?", she just glanced at me. 
"That's been going through my mind, I have no idea what it's going to be like but it's going to be better than anything that's happened in the past, that's enough for now", I sighed. 
"You know you can come to my house, right? You can hide there", I agreed with a smile and we continued in a comfortable silence. 
04/29/1997
7:30 A.M.
 On the morning of my birthday, I woke up in the best possible way. The warmth emanating from Draco's body and the thick blanket kept me unfazed by the freezing wind coming in through the window. I didn't want to move and I didn't need to. 
I sighed satisfied with the position I was in, curled up under the blanket hugging the blond's bare torso, with no responsibility or obligation other than to enjoy my day. 
"Morning, love", his arms pressed me tighter against him, I could feel his calm breathing and somehow, I felt calmer too.
I left a few kisses on his bare skin and the goosebumps they caused on him made me break out into a little smile. "Good morning, love", I whispered leaning back against him.  
"Come here, let me give you a proper happy birthday", he gave my hair a quick pat and lifted my chin to look at him. 
 As soon as I crawled closer to him, his arms entwined around my waist and pulled me even closer. 
"Happy birthday my love", he left several little kisses on my face and neck before moving to my lips, but our moment was interrupted by a noise on the window.
 A gray owl incessantly beat its beak on the window pane, we looked at each other, neither of us wanted to get up, but it would be too cruel to leave the poor thing waiting there. 
"It's my birthday, I have the right to ask you to go", I gave a brief kiss on his lips before letting him go to the war field. 
 I stayed warm while he opened the window further so that the owl could get through, as well as the icy wind. 
He rushed back to my side in time to see me tear the seal off the letter I received. 
"It's from my parents, they are really working hard this year. I have to admit that", I told him as I scanned the paper. 
"At least they realized what a great daughter they have, she's a little mean but still great", I was too busy reading the letter to notice his cunning and more icy than usual hands pass around me.  
 I jumped out of bed as I felt the shock of our skin contact and he had the audacity to laugh, I had to control myself too much not to grab my wand. 
"Draco Lucius Malfoy, you are dead now", I climbed into bed with my pillow, ready to fight. 
20:00 P.M.
 A few hours later, I was getting ready for the party in the Slytherin common room, everyone was invited since after this stressful year, a party would be nice and I couldn't physically kick anyone out. 
I was barely concentrating in my makeup, Nala was running back and forth between my feet wanting attention and I couldn't give it to her or for the next few hours, no matter how much it broke my heart. 
"For Merlin's sake... Nala! Sit!", it saddened me to see that she obeyed but still wanted to come running to me, that deserved a good reward.
 I fed her one of her favorite cookies and petted her shiny fur before going back in front of the mirror. I checked several times to make sure I was ready. 
"See you later my love, mma will be back soon", I waved to her and went downstairs before I gave in. 
 There were already a lot of people when I arrived, the new song by The Weird Sisters was so loud that Pansy didn't hear me, even though I called out 2 times as she passed by on the other side of the room. 
As I made my way through, many friends stopped to congratulate me and also to chat a bit, by the time I realized what I was supposed to do, more than 10 minutes had passed. 
"Have you guys seen Pansy? I was looking for her", I said before turning my own glass of buttered beer over and leaving it in Tom's hand. "See you guys later", my eyes were glued on the blond guy standing in the corner and in less than a second, I was walking towards him. 
"What the hell am I supposed to do with that?!", I heard his indignant voice but ignored it along with all the other people, who tried to talk to me on my way to him. 
"You know, the delay is only elegant because it doesn't last more than 5 minutes", he was smiling even though he hated tardiness. 
"Maybe for most people, a queen is never late love, the others were too early. Especially when it's her birthday", I stopped in front of him. "You haven't given me my present yet, I'm waiting", I pointed to my own lips.  
 He chuckled and looked at me for a few seconds before he said  something, even with the lights flashing I could still see the twinkle in his eyes, which still reflected mine equally. 
"Are you asking this as a gift around too?", his smile widened as did mine, he took a step closer. 
"Does that mean you're not going to give it to me? I had high expectations for this one in particular", something in his gaze changed, I could clearly tell but it was gone as quickly as it appeared. 
"That particular one can wait, right now, I have my main gift", he took his hands off his back and in them was a green velvet median box with silver details. 
 I was almost breathless just admiring the package once it was in my hands. To top it off, a green silk bow and I had the impression that he had made it himself. 
When I opened it, my jaw dropped. A silver necklace with an emerald heart carefully displayed in the box. 
"Draco, you really didn't have to give me something expensive", he didn't answer me, instead took the necklace and helped me put it on. 
"It seemed like an appropriate gift, now that we will no longer be living by Slytherin rules, it’s a nice way to say goodbye", I didn't think twice before I kissed him. 
"I love you, I'll never get tired of saying that", I whispered between kisses. "You won't forget that, right?", I sighed as he brushed his lips across the skin of my neck. 
"I have no reason to forget love, I...", we were interrupted by a forced cough behind me. 
"Why don't you two just go into a room? No one has to see this scene", Blaise's unmistakable voice sounded and I felt my boyfriend giggle, not moving out of position. 
"You can go after your girlfriend instead of getting in our way, wouldn't that be a brilliant idea?", I didn't see what happened, but a nice answer wouldn't be."So where were we honey?", he raised his eyes to meet mine. 
"We better save that for the end of the party love, wasn't that your idea?", I pulled away from him and took his hand. "You have a whole party to enjoy." 
"I already regret that decision, thanks for reminding me", he mumbled that and a few other things I couldn't hear. 
07/01/1997
7:00 A.M.
"I still can't believe this is our last breakfast at Hogwarts", Astoria commented amidst the silence that had formed at our table. 
"I still can't believe it's really over, it seems like any minute now I'm going to wake up and be back in third year", Pansy added. 
"Well, I hope you'll make better decisions if you go back there tonight. No one forgot the hair Pan", my remark made everyone laugh for the first time in the day, a bit of pride grew inside me. 
"Just because Hogwarts is over doesn't mean we're going to split up. None of you have any right to be this down today", Theo said and I was forced to smile as was everyone else. 
"I was glad to be rid of you, at no point I was sad," Blaise muttered but we could all hear him and we all laughed once again. 
8:00 A.M. 
"What are you thinking?" he was with his eyes closed leaning against the train window, but I knew he wasn't asleep. 
"How familiar everything here is, the worn leather of the seat, the smell of candy in the hallway and of trees coming in through the window. Other things will be familiar 7 years from now, it's just weird to think about it," he continued in the same position but held out his hand to me. 
"That's true but I feel better knowing that we will continue to be each other's constant," I intertwined our fingers and we continued like that until we arrived.  
11:00 A.M. 
"It's time for the gifts, we prefer to give you personally. I believe you will like it", my mother said as soon as we sat down on the couch in our living room. 
 I smiled not knowing how to respond, since I usually got the same thing every year, money or more paint, and I was pretty sure they didn't choose in person. 
"Go ahead, open it. We decided to give two separate presents this year, the pink wrapping is mine and the purple one is your father's", the two boxes were right next to me on the couch, so why was I hesitating so much to pick them up? 
 A lot was going on in my head, they have changed a lot in the last year but why? I could be dreaming of the ideal day, but no dream was as vivid as this one.
I took a deep breath and opened the pink first, I expected to find anything but my stuffed bunny, he was washed and clean, different from how I remembered, but still the same. 
"I thought I lost or tore it a long time ago", I managed to say as I hugged him like one who finds an old friend, but he was beyond that. 
"He was really in a rough state, but I was able to fix him. It was in one of the boxes in the basement, remember how you got it?", I agreed again, a wave of memories washed over me. 
My parents had just arrived home from a business trip, it was the first time I had been alone at home without them. 
"Mommy, Daddy!", I ran down the stairs as fast as my little legs would allow and threw myself into my father's arms, not caring about his wet coat, which soon became even wetter. "You promi-promised that you would be back soon”. 
"Oh my love, something unexpected has happened. We were never going to leave you alone for so long," her hands wiped away my tears and took me in her lap. "So, for you never have to be alone again, we brought a little friend, he will always keep you company when we have to leave." 
That wasn't enough to calm me down but it made me curious enough to stop crying, I didn't have any friends before that. 
 I hurried to open the other package but there was only an empty picture frame with no photo inside. 
Before I could open my mouth to ask for an explanation, shapes began to appear from the black background. 
I recognized the picture, me still a baby in my mother's arms and my father behind her, hugging us both but as soon as I blinked, it was gone. 
Another picture formed in its place, I was older, about two or three years old, this one I had never seen. I was on my mother's lap holding a drawing that I had made and possibly looked terrible. 
More pictures appeared and disappeared but I didn't wait to see them all at that moment. 
"I loved these gifts...thank you Mom and Dad," I made a great effort to hold back the tears as I hugged them both. "They are the best presents I have ever gotten." 
23:00 P.M. 
"What are you two doing out there at this time of night?! Draco, have you been drinking now?", Narcisa gave us another stern look before opening the door and shoving us inside. 
 We walked in almost tripping over the living room rug, laughing at each other, to the point where tears formed in our eyes.  
"Shhhhhh, my dad must be working... uhhhhhh, he's not going to like this, u-um," his hand covered my mouth. 
I pushed his hand away from my face. “Me?Shut up? You're practically screaming you idiot!".
 "You two, I don't want another peep out of you. Come up quietly. Your father doesn't like to be interrupted," she whispered, but it was enough for us to agree without hesitation. 
"Yes, Captain, I mean, ma'am," he pulled me up the stairs before her patience ran out.

14:00 P.M. 
"What do you mean, you don't remember what happened?", the blond was clearly trying hard not to laugh and I sighed, still under the blanket. 
"I don't remember Draco, did your mother really not hate me? I can't believe we came here...", even though no one was watching me, I started to blush, or was it just the fever? There's no way to be sure now. 
"That could never happen, she made sure to request your favorite tea. Now get out of there before it gets cold", he tried to pull on my blanket but I used all the rest of my strength not to let him.  
"Noooo, out there that's too cold. Come here, it's too cold for you too", I took one of my hands from the comfortable warmth to pull him to me. "You didn't have to get up so early to get this", I whispered but soon after started coughing. 
"There must be a potion to help you, I'll just get it and then...", he was ready to get up from the bed but I didn't let go of his arm. 
"I just want you, please stay here? The elf will bring it anyway", before he could protest, I covered him with the blanket. "You're not well either, let's just lay down for now". 
 He opened his mouth to deny it again but all that came out was a sneeze, after this he just gave up and lied down too. We were both screwed but at least we were together, right? I tried to think positive.
