June Blog Gotta spice up my life.
Tried out new boba places that have started to open up in Atlanta and I feel like life is worth living again!

Plant Saga I swear this is probably the most eventful part of my life.
Hubert the monstera has many new leaves, one successfully became a split leaf but he’s got a ways to go. He’s too small now to create completely split leaves. I think maybe next year...
Tumblr media
- I got Lorenz a rose gold planter and it made him more bougie. NICE. I don’t know if anyone cares about mini rose plant care but he did get infected by spider mites because of course he freakin did. I mixed dish soap and water and sprayed him once a week and they disappeared. Every day I have to monitor him for signs of stress and any other possible problems. I think he’s the most high-maintenance plant I currently have and it is very fitting lool.
Tumblr media
- Rokurou the Venus Fly Trap keeps eating things. Very typical. I saw him catch a moth that nearly escaped with half of its body still caught in the trap. It was gruesome but I was really psyched to see him catch something other than ants. He is so happy now he even created a flower bud which I had to unfortunately destroy before it bloomed. It really weakens the plant to let it produce flowers. :( Apparently they’re pretty boring and smell bad anyway loool. I need to get him a planter too... - Say hello to Riki the parlor palm! I was trying to think of which character was pointy and tropical. This is a pretty easy plant to care for, I just water him once a week.
Tumblr media
My next goal is to get my hands on a pothos! Time to think about names...
-
Projects Last month I began planning out a complete comic series about Rokurou and Eizen. Listen... I am very enthusiastic about their bromance. I work on it every day for a little bit before bed. You can say I was inspired to do this because of the amount of Webtoons I’ve been reading. If they let us post fanart maybe I would have given it a shot haha. Sadly, my only usable social media platforms are not comic-friendly but it’s alright. Based on my progress I’m happy to say that I will be finishing a comic series for once (I’m 95% done). And I never finish anything! I want to launch this project in two weeks but I’ve told myself that I must finish all of my comic pages before I post a single thing. Soon. - I don’t think I’ve shared visuals of what I do at the stationery company I work at. We occasionally get orders for chalkboard bar menus for wedding receptions. I’ll show you the one I illustrated for the client of their pets! I actually met the bride and groom that day (it was also my birthday) and they thanked me like 1000 times and even gave me a huge tip. T_T
Tumblr media
Otherwise, my duties include laser cutting and wedding assembly! I would love if this were a full-time job like the old days... - The bakery... I am bros with the cafe owner’s husband. He helps out on weekends and we have synergy. He is very... DAD. For some reason he likes to give me a new life lesson every week I see him. He’s not my dad but I’m still going to tell him Happy Father’s Day. Here’s a text:

The Berseria Journey (I will be vague in my commentary) Made a new friend thanks to Berseria! Crying over fics really do bring people together 🥺.
After playing for 6 and a half months, we finally beat the main story... To be fair, we went around the world doing all side quests and optional content. My favorite mini-game was Character Cards!
My roomie and I play together so during the finale she took on the “short one” as Velvet - while I, playing as Rokurou, had an EPIC one-on-one sword fight with the “tall one”. Dodging attacks and countering with Vengeful Stance, the delicious stun attacks. MMM! It was so good. Finished it off with beautiful lvl 3 mystic. *chef kiss*
Uhhhhhh I need time to process that ending because so much was happening in the last 10 minutes of the game. I am still kind of confused but you know what, that’s okay. Maybe my brain will catch up when I do post-game activities.
I wish I had more interesting pictures but we’re having such a hard time getting PS4 recordings to work. Please accept my Snapchats.

He said wanted the towel. To wear nothing but the towel. It is very much canon, so who am I to deny him?

summertime sadness .3.
first day
Tumblr media
Sequel to kiss me in the d-a-r-k
Part 1 Part 2 (masterlist under construction)
Warnings: dub con sex (intercourse, oral)
This is dark!(dad)Steve and dark(professor!)Bucky explicit. 18+ only.
Summary: You start your new job as you juggle the men in your life.
Note: back at it again with part 3. I'll keep y'all updated about a possible new posting schedule and an announcement regarding Patreon. Apparently writing every day and stressing myself out is not good for my mental health lmao. But I'm enjoying this one and I'm not sure yet if we're gonna be able to stick to 6 parts. Bon appetit. 💋
<3 Let me know what you think in a reblog, reply, or like. I'm loving the feedback from y'all and the excitement! You guys are gold. Also as always, memes accepted.
💋💋💋
You woke to the buzzer. You rolled over and grabbed you phone from the table. Your voice was thick and groggy as you answered it. 
“Hello?” You nearly coughed through your dry throat.
“Delivery,” The monotone response came.
“Okay,” You shook your head confused and hit the button to let him up. 
You dragged yourself from the bed and staggered to the door. You watched through the peephole as the carriers appeared at the top of the stairs. The two men in their brown uniforms carried a large box between them. They knocked once before you managed to unhook the chain and opened the door. 
“Um?” You stared at them confused.
“Delivery for apartment 6,” The man read off his tablet. “Signature?”
He turned it toward you and you read your name across the top. You hadn’t ordered anything. You couldn’t afford to. You signed, still confused, and held the door open for them to drag the box inside. You thanked them and watched them go before you shut the door. You crossed your arms as you stared at the package. You needed coffee.
You brewed your usual morning potion and sipped it slowly as you paced around the box. It took up much of the space you had left. You set your mug down and grabbed your keys to slice through the plastic tape. Within was an instruction booklet and a litany of boards and screws. It was a desk.
Your phone vibrated on your night table and you stood. You grabbed your coffee and sat on the edge of your bed as you opened your phone. 
‘You got your present?’ Steve’s message popped up.
‘You?’ You responded with an O face.
‘Figured you needed something better than that lumpy double,’ He returned and you tutted.
‘Thanks’ You replied with heart eyes.
‘Don’t worry. I ordered the smallest desk I could find.’
‘Still don’t think it will fit.’
‘You should be used to a tight squeeze.’ He kidded and you finished your coffee.
‘Uh huh. Well I guess I gotta day ahead of me, don’t I?’
‘Good luck.’ He sent a winky face alongside the taunt.
You returned a smiley and tossed your phone on the mattress. You stood and sighed as you once more ruminated over the box. Well, a little something to keep your mind off your nerves on your last day of freedom.
💋
You were pressed, preened, and as professional as you could get. Button up blouse patterned with small daisies, blush-toned blazer, and ironed beige pants. In your bag, you had a fresh notebook, your laptop, and about a dozen pens, including the golden on gifted to you. 
You strode through the front doors of the city tower as your nerves jittered in your chest. You hadn’t been there since the workshop. You and the other students had gone on a tour of the offices and your submission earned you a page in the company’s Sceptre Magazine. It also gained you the unexpected offer for this job.
After an elevator ride which seemed to make time stand still, you stepped off into the shining offices of Adder Press. It was just as you recalled only even more intimidating. You approached the receptionist’s desk tentatively and resisted your habit of wringing your hands. The buoyant redhead greeted you with a bubbly smile.
“Hello, you must be the intern,” She chimed.
“Um, yeah, I guess that’s me,” You answered.
“Well, I’m Stacey, I don’t know if you remember me, and you can just head on over to his office. He’s waiting for you.” She clicked something with her mouse and hit the intercom button on her phone. “Mr. Laufeyson, your 8 a.m. is here.”
“Very well,” His voice replied from the speaker.
She nodded for you to you pass her desk and you ducked your head down as you left her. You vaguely recalled the layout of the office. The round desks and the cozy seating all around. You bit the inside of your lip as you wandered cluelessly through the maze of employees who knew what they were doing.
You looked up and a familiar slim figure appeared in the doorway of the office along the back of the immense space. Loki Laufeyson, the editor and owner of Adder Press, greeted you with a handshake as you neared. His green eyes sparkled above his trademark smirk. In your brief introduction, you found he always looked as if he had a secret.
“Good morning,” He let go of you and stepped back to let you into his office. “You’re early.”
“A habit,” You assured him as you entered his roomy office.
“An admirable one,” He followed and passed you as he rounded his desk. “Sit,” He waved to the seat across from him before he took his own. “First, we’ll go over the job and your expectations. Any questions you have…” He checked his watch as he crossed his legs and leaned back. “And then we have a long day ahead of us.”
“Okay,” You said as you cradled your bag in your lap.
“You’ll be shadowing me for the most part. You’ll get an idea of how the business works and everything that goes into publishing.” He explained. “And we’ll get a taste of your editing skills. I’ll hand you a few minor pieces and go from there. Meetings, pitches, and so on.”
You nodded and listened to him as you sat on the edge of the chair. 
“I trust you will attune well. Your article was exceptional and I have no doubt there is a place for you in this business. Literary or otherwise.” He continued. “You are the first intern we’ve had that wasn’t a fourth year. I hope you realise the gravity of this position. Of this opportunity.”
“Of course,” You assured him. “And I’m am grateful for it.”
He tilted his head and squinted at you as he thought. He sat forward and smiled again. 
“Well then, we should get started. I’ll show you your desk before we attend the morning meeting. Then you can sit in on my next. The board must select the winners of the contest for our Pride Issue of Sceptre, among other significant decisions.” He stood and tapped his desk with two fingers. “Tomorrow, we’ll deal with the marketing side of things. Just as important as the content itself.”
“Alright,” You rose, excited though too nervous to show it.
He seemed amused and turned to guide you out of his office. Your stomach flipped a second time that day and you swallowed down the storm. You had to keep reminding yourself that this was what you wanted. An actual dream come true.
💋
Your first week flew by. The workload kept you busy and your desk was quickly cluttered from it; both at work and at home. Your nights were late and mornings early. The true university experience but not for the usual reasons, though it was just as thrilling as any party.
To your surprise, Loki was an accommodating boss; in his own way. His expectations were clear but not easily met. His standards fueled you; encouraged you to fight harder to meet them. And when you didn’t, he wasn’t disappointed; rather encouraging in his singular discerning manner. That he did expect so much of you, was flattering on its own. 
And your first edited piece, a quarter page review, had passed his grueling rounds of criticism. You couldn’t help but beam as he read over your final submission and uttered that single word, ‘adequate’. He looked up from his screen and across his desk. “It’ll print.”
You were still smiling as you walked out onto the street. You took out your phone, long ignored for your work. The screen was filled with notifications. Both Steve and Bucky sent identical messages; ‘How was your first week?’
You answered Steve first. ‘It was good. I think I’m getting the hang of it.’
Then Bucky. ‘Great! I’m learning so much.’
‘Awesome. Facetime tonight?’ Steve replied and you accepted the invitation.
‘Have you eaten?’ Bucky’s text popped up.
‘Not yet.’ You answered.
‘You still downtown?’ He asked. Another confirmation sent.
‘I’m at the Beer Garden. My treat. They have amazing tacos.’
‘Ten minutes,’ You promised and opened up your Maps.
When you got there, Bucky was waiting. A pitcher sat before him and two glasses; one empty, the other half-finished. You neared and set your bag on one of the tall chairs as you climbed up on another.
“Hey,” You greeted. “Didn’t think I’d ever be here again.”
“Why not? Good beer, good food,” He poured you glass as he spoke. “Good men.”
“Sure, sure,” You laughed as he set the pint before you. “So, how are classes?”
“Ugh, can we not?” He grumbled. “I didn’t come here to think about school.”
“Only to get me tipsy, eh?” You sip from the foamy stout.
“It never takes very much,” He grinned. “And I figured, we could take a walk after. There’s a nice little bookshop down the street.”
“Books? So this night will be worth it after all?” You kidded.
“Free food,” He reminded as he slid a menu over to you.
“I can get food at home, cozy in my bed with a good doc on my laptop,” You chided. “But new books? That’s better than--”
“Sex?” He ventured coyly.
“Almost.” You answered as you lifted the menu. “Though the more I think about it, free food might just change my mind.”
💋
Your stroll to the bookshop led you past Adder Press once more. It was a small nook between a cafe and a foreclosed business. As you entered a bell chimed and the smell of aged paper filled your nostrils. The walls were lined with shelves and small desk sat along the left side of the store. Books; used, new, rare, surrounded you.
You followed Bucky to the back of the shop and perused the non-fiction section as he looked over the military memoirs. The shelves between you and the front of the store blocked the view of the street through the wide bay window. It seemed darker back there; quiet.
As you scanned the back of a book on the old studio system in Hollywood, you felt a tickle along your side. Bucky’s hand gripped your hip as he turned you and slowly edged you back against the shelf. He glanced towards the front desk but cared little as he leaned in. He took the book with his other hand and blindly put it aside.
“Long week,” He purred.
“It was,” You said. “But I think you can wait a little longer.” You patted his chest and tried to push him away. “Maybe until we’re somewhere more...private.”
“Ah come on, have a little fun, miss priss,” He rubbed his nose against yours. “Just a kiss.”
He pressed his lips to your and you squirmed. You kissed him back as he trapped you in the corner. His arms wrapped around you and he slid along the shelves. Several books fell behind you noisily and he pulled away at last. You sneered and bent to pick them up as the cashier craned to look around the shelves.
“Sorry,” You waved to him as you gather the books. “Clumsy.”
You put them back on the shelves as you stood and Bucky watched you with a smirk. You growled and grabbed his arm. 
“Fine, let’s go,” You snarled.
“You want that book, baby?” He teased as you dragged him back down the aisle.
“I want sleep,” You said. “And the quicker we’re out of here, the quicker I get my wish.”
He chuckled as you shoved him out onto the street. “You’re sexy when you’re mad.”
“I’m not mad.” You insisted.
“Sure,” He slung his arm over his shoulder and led you back down the street. “Don’t worry, I’m sure I’ll find a way to cheer you up.”
💋
Bucky had never been to your apartment before. You always met at his; it was bigger, cozier, and less stressful. When he pulled up to your building, he killed the engine but you didn’t say anything as he followed. Surely he knew a student couldn’t afford a condo.
When you showed him into your meagre flat, he glanced around and smiled. “Quaint.”
“Affordable,” You said as you set your bag on the chair. 
“Cute.” He commented as he neared your desk.
“New addition,” You explained. “Steve sent it last week.”
“Of course he did,” He mused. “Always practical, isn’t he? Well, in most things.”
“Mmm,” You grumbled and took off your blazer. “I suppose.”
“Did you send him a pic?” He asked and you lifted a brow. “Of the desk?”
“No,” You said. 
“Well, why don’t you?” He winked. “We can do a little photo shoot for him.”
“I don’t think so,” You scoffed.
“For me too,” He said. “Sexy school girl. Classic.”
“Stop,” You neared him as he pulled out his phone and tried to take it from him. “Or I’m gonna send you home early.”
“Take your clothes off,” He held his phone above you. “Come on.”
“No,” You squealed. “Now put that away.”
“You can keep your panties on,” He bartered. “Just give a smile.”
“Bucky…”
“Hey, if it’s gonna be another week, I need something to keep me from getting lonely.” He argued. 
You stepped back and stared up at him. You sucked your lip in and nibbled on it.
“You’re thinking about it,” He said. “I know that look.”
“One photo. That’s it.” You sighed and unbuttoned your blouse. “And it stays between you and Steve.”
“You have my word,” He grinned.
He watched you undress until you were in nothing but your bra and panties. You went to the desk and stood in front of it stiffly. You smiled. “Okay?”
“I said panties,” He intoned. “Nothing about your bra.”
You frowned and swiftly unhooked your bra and tossed it aside. 
“Up,” He gestured with his hand as he held his phone up. 
You pushed aside the chair and turned to clear a spot for you to sit before you climbed up awkwardly. You turned back to him and leaned on your hands.
“Stick your chest out a little,” He directed. “Good, and cross your legs. Mmm, yes. Like that.” He hit capture and lowered his phone. “Wow.”
“What?” You leapt down and scrambled over to him. “I must look awful.”
“You look… hot,” He growled the last word. “Fuck. Get those panties off while I send this to Steve.” He rubbed his crotch as he flicked his thumb over his screen. “I can’t wait much longer.”
You rolled your panties down your legs as you turned away from him. You heard him set his phone down as you neared the bed. 
“No, I want you back on that desk,” He said. “Now.” You spun back and put your hands on your hips. He shook his head in warning. “You know what happens to bad girls.” He warned.
You strutted over to the desk as he pulled his shirt over his head. He kicked off his shoes as he slowly closed in on you. He stripped deliberately until he was before you, naked and hard. You stared up at him and he lifted you up onto the desk. He pushed your knees apart and stepped between your legs.
“Do you remember that first time? On my desk? Hmm?” He inhaled your scent as he dragged his nose along your cheek. “I’ve been thinking about that all week.”
“Oh yeah,” You breathed as you felt along his sides and around his broad back. “Do you think about me when you teach?”
“Always,” He snarled. “I think about fucking you, front and centre, right in front of everyone.”
“Really?” His lips tickled your temple as he plied kisses one at a time. You leaned back and bared your throat.
“You know, what I really want,” He nuzzled your neck as he spoke. “I want you under my desk as I mark… help keep me focused.”
“Oh?” You moaned as his fingers inched along your stomach. “When do you mark?”
“Whenever you’re free, baby,” He nibbled at your skin between words.
“Tomorrow?” You felt long his thigh and brushed your fingertips along his sac. He shivered.
“Tomorrow.” He gulped as you gripped him. “Meet me at my office.”
“Mmm,” You pulled him close as rubbed his tip along your folds. “What about tonight?”
“Tonight,” He lifted his head as you guided him to your entrance. “Tonight I’m gonna fuck you till you scream.”
He pushed into you and you gasped. You wrapped your arms and legs around him, hungry for him. Each time he thrust, the desk wobbled and clattered against the wall. You clawed at his back as you curled your pelvis towards him, longing to take every inch of him. You moaned and locked your legs around his ass.
“Make me scream,” You taunted.
He grunted and plunged into you harder. You were at the edge of the desk, entirely at his mercy. He pushed his hand between your bodies and pressed his thumb to your clit. He rubbed you roughly, painfully almost, yet the thrill of it was delicious. Your moans grew louder and louder.
He reached back with one hand and tore your arm from around him. Your other arm slipped as he pushed you onto your back and pulled your ass over the edge of the desk. Your grasped onto the desk above your head as he crashed into you. Your body jerked across the painted white wood and you gritted your teeth as your voice rose.
“Come on, baby,” He rutted into you, harder and harder. “Come on.” He hissed as his thumb worked your clit. “Scream.” 
He impaled you entirely and you obeyed. He wrenched your orgasm from you and your legs quivered around him as you shrieked. Your head lolled and you covered his hand with yours as his thumb kept its motion. When it stopped, he dug his fingers into your hips and began to thrust again.
His own climax was barely smothered as he hung his head back and bit down on his lip. He pulled out and his cum spilled onto your vee and dripped down your cunt. You gulped and gasped as you tried to catch your breath and he lowered your legs back to the floor. Your sat up as his cum cooled along your thigh.
“You still mad, baby?” He asked as he framed your face with his hands. 
You pulled his hands away and placed them on your tits. “You still have some work to do.”

Chapter 1: my hell is a virtual novel nightmare/follow the light of...the tv?/hhhhuuuuhhh!?
Part:1
Hey i'm (y/n) (y/l/n) and i'm pretty sure i'm in hell well or is it limbo i can's fuckin' tell anymore i slouch at the counter resting my elbow on it as i wait for someone to either order a coffee with a complicated name or complain 'i didn't order this' 'you call this coffee' and i throw a sugar packet at 'em blah blah whatfuckingever and fuck this box stop copying what i'm thinking it dibbled out my exact thought as if to say 'fuck you you can't stop me' i give a heavy sigh of aggravation at my predicament did i fail to mention i'm dead, i'll explain exactly three mouths ago i was in a very bad place in my mind i guess you could say in life i was 'rather' depressed , disconnected , alone i felt as though i had no reason to live i was sure no one would miss me i know my brother wouldn't, my body was like it was on autopilot when i reach for my sleeping pills from the bathroom cabinet, unfortunately i wouldn't have the chance to off myself cause someone ultimately beat me to it, the only warning i got was a masked face in the mirror, it happened so fast i didn't even feel a thing, i may have been a 'tiny' bit distracted
when i awoke i was in a room i didn't recognize i gasped and scanned the bedroom in alarm, the wallpaper was white littered with little pink hearts, the closet had double doors that were a dark wood color, a midsized tv , a desk with a laptop that was also covered in hearts that definitely wasn't mine and the bed i was laying in wasn't familiar either it was purple with light purple to match the blanket i was wrapped in was a hot pink with dare i say it even more hearts i didn't have time to ponder where hell i was for the bedroom door swung open, revealing a woman i definitely definitely didn't recognize she had short dark hair a heart shaped face brown eyes a turned up nose plump lips and her body had a curvy shape to it and wearing some kind of waitress uniform that was red with white accents on the edges she had a sweet friendly smile on her face "good morning sleepy head "
"w-who are you!?"
she cast me an astonished look "are you kidding me roomie, it's me sally your roommate." putting her hands on her hips "are you feeling okay?" she asked her eyebrow rised "i-i'm not sure" i shakely answered then i noticed the oddist thing a large transparent rectanglar floating box that spelled out exactly what i said "hey what's this thing?" pointing at it as it copied me again "uh what thing?"
i pointed at it again "That thing" she look at me like i was losing my marbles i was starting to think i was , "i don't see anything, are you feeling okay?" she sounded concerned, i scratched my head unsure, what the hell was going on she took my hand pulled me to my feet
"com'on i made breakfest, you'll feel better after you eat something" as she guided me to what looked to be a living room where there was a couch a tv and a round dining table that a steaming pile of pancakes still hot the sight made my stomach growled "your welcome" she said condescendingly as she sat down fixing herself a plate i sat and proceeded to do the same may as well eat something, after the 4th or 6th pancake "i gotta get to work, you probably should too" checking her watch "huh work?" i blinked in confusion "uh yeah ? The coffee shop remember." looking very credulous at me i can only imagine how dumbfoundead my face was
"what's with you today and do not tell me you don't remember the way there either." she crossed her arms "no?" drewing invisible circles on the table with my finger "but just for fun where would i find it ?" her palm met her forehead and groaned and irritatingly explaned to me the location of said coffee shop and other places i asked as annoyed as she was explaining i was just as annoyed for asking her but each place she told me didn't sound familiar, the coffee shop was under the name 'woke up cafe'
"You all that?" she asked "i think so" pileing the new info in my head "good if you do get lost for 'fun' check your phone on map app" my phone ? I start searching my pockets for it "*sigh* it's on your nightstand" rolling her eyes "oh heh heh" scratching my head " sigh i gotta go now or i'll be late, your keys are in the bowel and remember to lock the door"
'blem' she was gone leaveing me with questions then answers, well i may as well go to this 'coffee shop' maybe i'll find someone i know there, maybe get some answers to why i'm living with this 'sally' and how am i working at this 'woke up cafe' cause i don't recall, am i suffering from amnesia is that why?
I only hoped someone anyone could tell me what's going on "sigh" oh whatever i went to retrieve 'my phone' from the nightstand the seemed to be free of any hearts till i saw a small baby one in the corner of the wood, the phone case was a light pink with black dots, well at least they're not hearts, maybe i got into one of my drunk stupors that thought 'hearts' that would explain the interior design
i shook my head questions for later i guess, sliding the phone in my pocket i felt around the other pocket for my thermos and took a sip i put it back walk back to the front door, now where did she say the keys were, oh right a bowl there near the door was a stand with a glass blue bowl it was seethough in middle laid a small set of keys after picking them up i noticed a large tag with my name and there were three keys in total the one that looked like a house key had a pink heart with the word 'home' etched in the metal
oh goody another heart i sighed again and slipped out the door
however i would not be prepared for what i would encountered outside.
The first thing i noticed as i grabbed the railing was the sky it looked off like it didn't even look like sky it was like a painter's impression of sky like a oilpainting i shook my head , did i hit my head or something, then i made the mistake of looking down, and was suddenly aware of how high i was and how low the ground looked below, how fuckin' high in the air am i ?! i turned to the door i came out of '3' followed by a dark smudge i placed my hand on the three lonely and filthy just like me ,i looked back to the ground below, maybe this just the third i hoped, i grimaced and slowly and carefully climbed down the stairs and counted from point A to point B, i took some more calming breaths and counted seven floors, oh christ on a stick why, why the 7th floors, i hate heights, am i being punished ? my feet finally met the sweet ground i gave a great sigh of relief
"ok no more fuckin' around" i pulled out 'my phone' for the directions sally told me about, hey has the grass alaways been this bright green? In fact everything else looked off as well, the colors were too vibrant, the sidwalk too perfect, the scenery too nice it was down right unnatural, maybe i'll see my doctor after this cause i think i'm loseing it more then usual as i looked at the box that won't dissipate i thought, i took a fast walking pace the walk on the sidewalk was too smooth as i took my steps, the sidewalk i remembered was jagged cracked and uneven this isn't righ- then i stumbled on one part of the concrete that wasn't quite leveled, okay that's a little better, i steadied myself, something caught my eye someone slumped against a building their back flushed the concrete wall his head and face were obscured by a dark hoodie head down giveing the impression off the air of depression his legs were sprawled out in front of him, is he alright i shook my head doesn't matter not my problem as i tried to continue walking my guilt came to bite me
(you're just gonna leave just like that he could be dying) i don't even know him or her, i was still unsure of their gender (that Should't matter ya know why don't you run into incoming traffic ya piece of shi-) i turned back not sure what i could do but i was gonna try anyway, i crouched down in front of him "hey are you alright?" his head was bobbing so i wasn't sure heard me i was about to ask again till came very shaky "i-i'm.....f-f-fine" he stuttered out his voice was so scratchy and hoarse like he hadn't spoken in years, i pulled out my thermos and held it out in front of him
"here drink this, don't worry it's just water" i waited for him to take it he shook his head "n-n-no t-thank y-y-you i-i'm f-f-fin-"
"you're not fine you sound like you were eating chalk just drink it you'll feel better, trust me" i wagged the container makeing the liquid slosh his head finally turned up at me i saw one dark blue eye widen at me "it's....you.." and something else i could't quite hear
"hmmm?" makeina a confused sound was about to ask what he said but then he took the water and chugs down every last drop wow shit he must've been more thirstier then i thought i proceeded to stand
" listen sorry to cut this short but i gotta get going"
i started turn "Wait!" he grabbed my wrist stopping me in my tracks "yes? What is it?" riseing my eyebrow at him
"w-what about y-y-your thing?" holding up the thermos and keeping his head down avoiding my gaze
"nah you keep it i got other ones" at least i hoped i did, and he looked like he needed it more then me
"y-you s-sure?"
"yeah" i tried walking away but i was being hindered
"could you um..let go now Please." he looked at his hand still clasped around my wrist "oh S—shit s-sorry" finally letting go i sighed and gave him a polite smile and i wave him goodbye
i made my way to a crosswalk where there a bus stop and i heard the wonderful sound of civilization i saw a man his back turned to me and he had a phone to his ear i absentmindedly bumped into him not paying attention he snapped around almost violently "WATCH WHERE You're going" he screeched "sorry i mean to-" i gasped and clasped my hands over my mouth at what i saw the man had no eyes, no nose, and no mouth to speak of, he didn't have a face in fact none of the people in the crowed walking ,talking and sitting at the bus stop also were faceless i started to hyperventilate "hey are you alright?" and in my panic i ran not sure where to i was so frighten that my barin just turned off i think one of 'em tried to touch my shoulder but i flinched away, oh god oh fuck i've lost it for real this time, what the hell is- "HEY LOOK OUT !!!" one of them screamed at me as i saw and heard a large bus it's lights flashing, oh god this is it, i shut my eyes and held my hands up anticipating the blow, but after a couple of minutes it never came i could't even hear the bus anymore actually i could't hear anything, not the bus,not the even the faceless people, just dead silence and my heavry breathing, i was still afraid so i slowly opened my eyes one at a time "what the hell?!" it was completely dark the bus, the street , the scenery , and the people were gone it was like somebody took all them away and left nothing but dark nothingness oh god was i haveing a episode?
"Hello is anyone there please...answer me" i called out but i was met with only more unsettling silence till i heard a very soft "Over here" I almost missed it sounded just like a child
i ran towards the direction it came from then i saw a soft glowing light that slowly got brighter the closter i got to it, was is that? When i got toe to toe to it, it took the shape of a small little girl she glowed as bright as a nightlight her eyes glowed green while the rest of her glowed a light yellow
"w-who are you?" i asked shakingly she made a sad sound and softly and sadly "you poor soul, you are trapped in a cage that's not your making, a prisoner of fate"
"what?" my voice came ghostly as she continued
"they must've caught you when you were just drifting, This truly is a unjust retribution that has been placed on your shoulders, your chances are almost none, but if i am able to reach you, there may be a possibility open to you"
yep it's official it was a long time coming but i've finally lost it
"You seem to not understand what i'm saying do you, please look upon this" with a wave of her hand a great big tv emerged from the ground
i stared at the screen not sure why all i could see was static at first but the picture slowly become clearer and clearer till i finally saw myself in my bathroom reaching inside the cabinet, oh yeah i remembered i was going to kill myself wasn't i? I watch myself take the bottle out and stared at it then the screen charged to two masked men rummaging though my stuff, are you kidding me i was being robbed "psst i think i hear someone's in there" one whispered pointing at the bathroom door, the other nodded "i got this" holding a baseball bat then quietly open the and to my horror i watched helplessly as the bat came domn on my head and (y/n) on the screen fall to the tiled floor with a thud and blood poured out of my head like a fountain
"dude i didn't tell you to kill 'em" masked man A yelled "aw shit man, let's get outta here" the screen turned back to static
all the air i had left me and my knees hit the dark ground losing the strength to stand, "i'm...am i..." as i found i had difficuly speaking as though my tongue was made of clay
"'dead' yes, i'm sorry (y/n)"
great killed in a 'breaking and entering' gone wrong and not only that on the day i planed to kill myself how ironic i can hear my mother's disappointment from here i bet my brother's just haveing a ball with this
the worst part is i had a suicide note prepared sigh what a waste of time
"am i ... is this hell?" looking back at her
"no purgatory"
"this is purgatory" i gestured around the emptiness
"no, this place is a in between of existiong and nothingness almost a dream space if you will i pulled you in so we could talk" said matter a factly
"i see...but the place i was before you pulled me in, that was purgatory?" i slowly stood up
"yes and no"
"huh?"
"There isn't just one purgatory there are infinite think of them as levels each one significantly different then the last each housing millions of souls you had the bad fortune by them"
souls? Then i remembered the faceless people and sally why did she have her's and they didn't "those people ..... is that gonna happen to me?!" oh god i felt another panic attack coming on
"no, Souls that lose their conviction their individuality become faceless they're lost themselves , so please listen to me" she took my hands into her's "they love playing sick twisted mind games they will use your pain against you so no matter how painful no matter how tragic don't forget yourself, in your pain holds your truth, it is what will keep you so no matter what don't look away,"
my mind was in a shamble of questions " who's 'they'?" i demanded
before she could answer me a ominous sound filled the nothingness like a siren then the ground shook violently like a earthquake then the whole area glowed a horrifying red
"oh no they found me!" she shook her head in dismay
"who's they, and what's happening?!" i screamed trying to keep myself steady
"there's no time, you must find the angel of death that they have enthralled in their game of torture, he is the key, you'll know him by this symbol" oh good more convoluted bullshit she waved her again and in the middle of the static of the screen appeared a misshapened heart that had a jagged line in the middle on one side black the other white and in red was the word 'yours' right in the middle as it flickered in and out on the tv
"key? key to what goddamnit, how am i supposed to find him with that !?" as i shook her but she was like a mannequin her eyes were like static they were there one sec and gone the next
"S---so-rry -----ere's n--- -ime you mu-t fin-d him" her voice came in and out like a out of tuned radio

Warnings : A touch of blood, hunt injury, shifter goo, Injured Sam mentioned, annoyed Dean. It’s laughs, you’re gonna laugh.
Square filled : Impala
Written for : @spngenrebingo
SPN GENRE BINGO MASTERLIST.
Tumblr media
“Revvin’ up your engine
listen to her howlin’ roar
Metal under tension
begging you to touch, and go
Highway to the danger zone-”
Dean hit the button to eject the cassette. “Seriously?” He shot you a glare and tossed the tape into your lap. “Every damn time?”
You grinned. “Ride into the danger zone.” you sang right by his ear as he grumbled and pulled away from the motel.
“Smart ass.”
Tumblr media
You hissed as you dropped into the seat. Your blood soaked skin sticking to the leather where Dean's flannel tied around your thigh wasn't acting as a barrier. “Fuck.” you groaned, reaching for the door as Dean opened his.
“I told you shorts was a bad idea.”
“I move better in jean shorts than you do period, old man.” He rolled his eyes at you and put the key in the ignition. “Besides, a little extra material wouldn't have made a difference.”
“You see any cuts that deep on my legs?”
“No, but you were also a good ten feet away from the thing, like a bitch.”
“Which one of us was the bitch?” Dean smirked.
“Fuck you! How was I supposed to know that asshole was in a rut!?”
Dean roared with laughter. “A rut.” he repeated and laughed. “Most people just call it ‘in heat’ or ‘dtf’ but you come out with ‘a rut’.”
“Because that's what it is, dicknuts.”
“Says who?”
“I read, okay? Alphas go into a rut, Omegas go in heat. That guy was no fucking Omega.”
Dean laughed even louder. “What the fuck have you been reading!?”
“Shut up.”
“You gonna have his ‘pups’ too?”
“I said shut up!” You gave him a shove and he just laughed harder. “Next time you're getting humped by the horny werewolf.” you sulked, looking out the window.
“I can't wait to tell Sammy this one.” Dean grinned and you groaned.
Tumblr media
“Revvin’ up your engine
Listen to her howlin’ roar-”
“Nope. Not today.” Dean ejected the cassette and tossed it in the back seat.
“Hey!” you glared as you got in the passenger side.
“You're making me miss Sammy’s music.” he grumbled and started up the engine.
“How dare you insult Kenny Loggins like that!” You leaned over the back of the seats to grab it, bumping the side of Dean's head with your ass as he pulled away from the motel.
“Get your ass outta my face.”
“Get your face outta my ass.” you retorted, fingers stretching to reach the cassette. As soon as Dean hit a stretch of road, he turned his head and bit into the side of your thigh, just below the cut of your shorts. “Ow!” you screamed and hit your head on the roof of the car before dropping back into your seat.
“Stop wearing shorts to a hunt.” He smiled to himself.
“You love it. Besides, I could hunt circles around you in a miniskirt.”
“That I'd fucking love to see.” His smile widened. “Either way, I'm a winner.” He turned and gave you a wink.
“Just drive. Dick.”
Tumblr media
Getting in the car, you gagged. “Don't fucking puke in my car.” he pointed at you as he slid in.
“I should puke on you!” you turned to him and gagged again.
“Don't you fucking dare!”
“Next time, you grab the shifter.” You gagged once more just thinking about how she had shed her skin when you grabbed her. You turned to lean over the side of the car just in time for your stomach to empty.
“Hey, I didn't tell you to-”
“Yes you did! You literally said ‘Grab her’”
He gave you what he normally dubbed Sam's bitch face, a face you knew for a fact that Sam had learned from him whether he admitted it or not. “I didn't mean literally. And I didn't make her shift.”
“You put a gun in her face, what else was she going to d-” you gagged again.
“Seriously?”
“Its all I can smell!”
“Its all I can smell. You reek.”
“You know what..”
“Don't!” You ignored him and lunged across the seat pressing your body against his in a  tight hug he couldn't fight. “Awe fuck!” he grumbled when you finally pulled away and he had shifter all over his shirt. “I hate you. You know that?”
“Good. Sammy better heal up because I'm not covering for him anymore.” you stuck your tongue out at him, only to gag. “Oh god, I can taste it.”
Dean roared with laughter as he started the engine and pulled away so fast your door shut on its own.
Tumblr media
“Thought you were done covering for Sam.” Dean teased when you tossed your duffle bag in the trunk next to his.
“I promised I could hunt circles around you in a mini skirt. I'm here to deliver.” You winked and walked away, chuckling when you hear him groan.
You were pulling away from the bunker, Sam waving you off as you rooted through the bag in you lap.
“You're wearing shorts under there, right?”
“Nope.” You smirk and glance up at him.
“Then how do you plan to-”
“Simple. You catch a glimpse of my ass, get so flustered you fuck up, I save your ass, I win.” You shrugged like it was nothing.
“You're going to be the death of me.” Dean groaned.
“That's the plan.”
Pulling out a cassette, you started to put it into the player. “Don't you fucking dare.” Dean warned you. You just smirked and pushed it in.
“Revvin’ up your-”
Dean hit eject, as he rolled down the window, grabbed the tape and threw it out.
“You're acting like that's the only one I've got.” As quick as you could, you popped in another one.
“You gotta be fucking kidding me.” He growled, glancing at the player as the music started up. Hitting eject again, he tossed that one too. You chuckled and he shot you a glare. “How many of them do you fucking have!?”
Grinning, you opened up the bag and showed him. “I hit a lot of yard sales just to annoy you.” Grabbing the whole bag, it followed everything else out the window. “Hey! My wallet was in there!”
“Nothing in that wallet was yours anyways.” he kept his eyes on the road. “And no more fucking Kenny Loggins.”
“Dean?” he ignored you. “Dean. Dean. Dean! Deeean!”
“What!?” he turned.
You leaned in real close, your mouth just inches from the corner of his. “Danger Zone.”
The car came to a stop in the middle of the road. “Get the fuck out.”
“Come on, Dean.” You laughed.
“I'm serious. Get out.”
“You gonna leave little ol’ me in a miniskirt by the side of the road?” you pouted at him. “You'll have to come back eventually to deal with my ghost.”
“You would make my life that miserable.” he grumbled and started away again.
“Damn right.” you smiled.
It was quiet for a bit, Dean content with driving in silence, and you had text Sam to tell him Dean had tossed them all out the window. Suddenly, music started up and Dean shot you a glare.
It was a bit different this time, this was your favorite version of the song. A woman's voice started singing and you smiled softly.
“What did I say” Dean growled.
“You said no more Kenny Loggins. This is only featuring Kenny. Technically, it's Charlene. And she's a fictional character, so I didn't actually break your-” Dean cut you off, grabbing your phone and tossing it out. “Dean! I need that!” you turned and looked out the back window as Dean sped away.
“No you don't. Now Sammy can't call you in, I'll get some damn peace and quiet.”
“Just means now I can't leave since Sammy still hasn't healed.” Deans smile fell, and yours grew as you leaned in and whispered in his ear. “You're in the danger zone, now. Roomie.”

31: All My Love
*March 2002, Arlington, Virginia*
Dave hung up the phone and sauntered into the studio, ignoring everyone as he plugged his guitar into the amp and fiddled with the pedals at his feet, just waiting for Taylor to do or say something. He had been baiting him for almost a week at rehearsals, knowing that Taylor was beyond annoyed with him for delaying the album so many times.
They were finally back in Virginia, which was another source of contention with Taylor. He had wanted to leave LA months ago and start session work, but Dave refused to go until Anna was ready. He had kept Anna and Taylor away from each other, fearing Taylor would reveal that she was the reason the album was stalling and he just knew that would make Anna go home too soon. It wasn't until she mentioned missing her parents that he knew she could handle going back, but even then he wanted her to take things slowly.
Taylor didn't understand why Dave was so eager to put Anna's needs above the band's when they weren't even a couple, but Dave didn't consider that his problem. Besides, when he wasn't with Anna, he was out in the desert with Josh working on the new Queens album and loving every second of it. He had forgotten how much he loved being a drummer and Anna had found a certain kind of therapy in surfing, so there was no hurry on either of their parts to race back to Virginia just because Taylor was getting antsy.  Winter had come and gone, now Spring was winding down and they were only just beginning to hash out some potential singles for the record.
Chris shifted awkwardly on his feet, his eyes darting from Taylor to Dave to Nate and then back to Taylor again before he finally took a deep breath. "Hey, I can cut the tension in here with a fucking knife. What the fuck is going on?"
Dave kept his eyes down at his pedals, but widely smirked at Chris's remark. "I think Taylor used baking soda to cut..."
"What the fuck did you say?" Taylor hopped off the stool and kicked it backward, sending it crashing to the concrete floor with a deafening clatter.
"I said-" Dave spun around to confront him, only to watch Nate and Chris drop their guitars and head for the door.
"What is your fucking problem?" Taylor screamed in his face. "We finally get a chance to rehearse and you act like a fucking dick!"
"I'm a dick? You're the one breathing down my neck all the fucking time! I can't even get through a fucking phone call without you pounding on the fucking window!"
"That was Josh on the phone, wasn't it?" Taylor spat and Dave almost laughed at how much he sounded like a jealous girlfriend. "You spend all your time with them and every other second is spent with Anna while-"
"Don't you fucking dare, Hawkins," he warned with as much venom as he could muster. "She just went through-"
"And I didn't? Did you not just sit in some dingy fucking hospital room with me for weeks on end? Do you not realize that this is what's going to keep me out of the shit, Dave?" Taylor stepped back and waved his arm towards the instruments laid randomly around the room. "All I want to do is work, man. I want something steady in my life that I can look forward to so I don't have the urge to go back."
It was only then that Dave felt like maybe he had been wrong. Maybe he had put Taylor further back on the priority list than he deserved to be. "We can finish these sessions, but I'm already committed to Queens," he said honestly. There was no getting out of drumming on the album or the tour now.
Taylor nodded, his eyes never leaving Dave's. "No, man. That's cool. Once we finish the gigs, I'm out. I need something dependable."
Dave felt his heart sink and his blood boil all at the same time. Fucking drummers. "Great."
"Yep."
*
Dave stormed through the front door, slamming it behind him so hard that the pictures on the wall rattled loudly. Scooter's paws eagerly tapping on the hardwood floors greeted him, but when he came around the corner he took one look at Dave and slid to a stop, clumsily turning around so he could retreat back to Anna. Even the dog couldn't stand to be around him now.
Hurling his keys on to the kitchen counter, he began to search through the cabinets."Anna! Where's the fucking whiskey?"
The silence that greeted him sent him into a fury, slamming one cabinet door so hard that it splintered the wood away from its hinges
"David."
Her calm voice did nothing to sedate him."What?!" he yelled, only then feeling bad for taking everything out on her and looked over his shoulder to see her patiently holding the bottle he was looking for. They held each other's stare for a moment before she retrieved a glass from the cabinet beside her and poured him a drink, sliding across the countertop and into his hand. She waited until he had downed it, then pulled out the barstools for them to sit on along with another glass for herself. They sat together in silence, drinking half the bottle between them before he was ready to speak.
"Taylor quit."
The color drained from Anna's face and she took a long sip. "Why?"
Dave just shook his head, too scared to tell her the truth. If she knew Taylor was pissed about all the time he spent with her, she would leave again.
"Why, David?" she repeated.
"He's jealous! He's pissed that I'm working with Josh and not spending all my time with him and the band and the record and... He's just way out of fucking line."
"Is he?"
"What?" he set his empty glass in front of him and looked at her in surprise.
"You're asking a lot of them, David. Of Taylor and Chris and Nate. You wander off to party with Josh and company and now you're asking them to sit on their hands for who knows how long until you're done earning money for another group? How fair is that?"
"They knew that when they signed up for this gig," he spat at her. "They fucking knew I was in demand as a drummer."
"Good," she said sweetly and stood up from her seat. "Then you'll have no problems drumming in your own band now, cause you're sure as hell not going to find someone like Taylor before Coachella."
*April 2002, Indio, California*
"Would you just go talk to him?" Anna shoved him a little on the shoulder when he spotted Taylor's blonde hair in the crowd just outside the RV they had rented for the weekend.
"I don't wanna," he said petulantly, making Anna roll her eyes.
"Fine," she stepped around him and wrenched open the window. "Hey, Hawkins!" she screamed, waving when he spun around at the sound of her voice. "Get in here!"
"Goddamnit, Anna," Dave groaned and retreated back to the bedroom to try and think of what he could possibly say to fix this.
"Anna Banana!" Taylor yelled and bounced up the steps into the RV, throwing his arms around her in a tight hug. "I never see you anymore! Dave keeps you locked away like some..." He trailed off when Dave stepped out of the bedroom and let Anna go.
She stood between them, carefully gauging the tension before deciding they probably wouldn't exchange blows if she left. "Well, I'm gonna go catch The Vines. You two have fun!"
"How's she doing?" Taylor asked once she was gone and flopped down into a bench seat.
Dave slid into the booth across from him and leaned onto his elbows. "She's okay. She has her moments, but she's back to being Anna again."
"She's not wearing her ring... You guys make it official yet?"
"Nope," Dave sighed. "Still roomies."
"Aw, she'll get there, man," Taylor offered. "Just give her a little more time."
Dave nodded and began to fidget, scratching at a stain on the Formica table between them.
"So, how's Josh?" Taylor suddenly asked, making Dave groan.
"Come on, T. Let's not do this."
"I'm just asking as a friend, man! I miss that... us... being friends."
Dave's stare went from the table top to Taylor's face, thinking the conversation might be easier than he expected. "Yeah, me too," he started, then spoke quickly before he lost the nerve. "Look, T... I'm sorry. About the album and putting you guys off and all that shit I said in the studio... I was an asshole."
Taylor sat silently, then raised his eyebrows and waved his hand to get him to continue.
"... and I don't want you to quit. I really don't, but I have to finish this shit with Queens."
"Fuck, dude," Taylor whined and put his head in his hands.
"Dude, just... it would mean a lot to me if you'd watch the set tonight. We'll have a good time tonight, play the gig tomorrow and we can just... be done."
Taylor sighed deeply and threw his head back into the wood veneer wall behind him. "Yeah, okay," he said quietly.
*
That night, Dave channeled every ounce of anger and frustration he had accumulated in the past few months and threw it into the kit, earning a surprised glance from Josh during the opener and then an excited smile when the desert crowd exploded in front of them. The entire set was flawless and fun, and he was just beginning to think it wouldn't be so hard to break up the Foo Fighters when he saw Anna and Taylor at stage left, both of them grinning and nodding along to the music. The anger suddenly dissipated and he began to play because he loved it, not because he had something to prove.
During the party backstage, he felt the familiar buzz of the music industry discovering fresh meat and managed to corner Josh long enough to break the news that he wouldn't return for a second album.
"Is it Taylor? He's fucking pissed, isn't he," Josh asked and took a drag of his cigarette.
"Yeah," Dave sighed and ran his hand through his sweat soaked hair. "He's struggling."
"Don't worry about it, man," Josh shrugged and Dave thought maybe he was being sarcastic. It just couldn't be that easy.
"What?"
"Man, you did me a fucking favor by playing even one song on my record. If you gotta go, you go. We can get a session guy in for the rest of the tour."
Dave stared at him for a long moment, stunned at how chill he was about the entire thing, then almost tackled him to the dirt in a hug.
"You gotta promise me we'll doing something in the future, though," Josh said through his laugh. "Maybe we can score a Beatle or one of the guys from Queen."
"Yeah, I'd love that," Dave nodded and let him go. "But let's get one of the guys from Zeppelin."
They both laughed at how impossible that sounded and wandered back into the party.
*
When he and Anna finally made it back to the RV, he groaned and began to throw back the cushions around the table so he could turn it into the bed he had slept in the night before, but Anna pulled him upright.
"No," she said firmly and spun him around by the shoulders to shove him down the narrow hallway towards the bedroom. "You had a hell of a night and have an even bigger day tomorrow. You take the bed."
He fell forward onto the mattress, his voice muffled by the blankets, "I have to take a shower first."
"Do those six bottles of water you dumped over yourself during the set not count?" she laughed and began to pull off his shoes. "Taylor kept singing the Flashdance song."
Once his shoes were off, he rolled onto his back. "Did he say anything else? Did he like the set?"
She shot him a questioning look and pulled a towel out of a cabinet to throw at him. "He told you he loved it, David."
"Yeah, but that was to my face. I want to know what he really thinks."
"I think he honestly loved it. He knew the songs, sang a little and even air drummed along with you," she giggled a little at the memory. "He's got a great voice! Do you need help with your shirt?"
Dave smiled up at her, thrilled that Taylor had like the set. "Yeah, my arms are useless right now."
"'Kay, sit up," she straddled his knees and grabbed the hem of his shirt, pulling it up and over his head and then huffed when he got tangled in the sleeves. "You gotta work with me, David!"
"I'm trying!" he whined, then laughed when she swore in frustration.
Once he was free of the fabric, she tossed it aside and sat back on his knees to glare at him, but when his hands went to her hips the mood shifted from light to something very different. The music from the main stage drifted through the open window and Anna smiled down at him when she recognized Siouxsie and the Banshee.
"Just like old times, huh," she said softly and rested her hands on his shoulders.
He stared at her, wondering if he would have made it through the stress and anxiety of the weekend without her. "I'm really happy you're here, Annie."
"Me too," she whispered and leaned into him, kissing him softly at first before pulling away.
"Anna...," he started, searching her face for any clue as to what she was feeling but she only looked worried.
"Can we do this?" she asked, then shook her head a little realizing it was a stupid question. "I mean, do you still want... me?" The last word came out as a shy squeak and she looked down to hide her red cheeks.
He ducked as much as he could to see her face and squeezed his hands over her hips. "I never stopped wanting this, Annie. Not for a moment."
Her eyes snapped back to his and filled with tears, though he had seen enough of her tears in the past six months to know these were different. These weren't tears of anguish and anger, they were tears of relief. She pulled him to her and kissed him again, leaning into him until he was laying back on the mattress. He slid his hands from her hips underneath her loose t-shirt to unclip her bra, but couldn't find the clip... or a bra for that matter. He whined against her lips, in actual physical pain from wanting her so badly and she took mercy by quickly unbuckling his belt and slipping her hand down the front of his camo cargo shorts.
"Fuck, Anna," he moaned when her fingers brushed against him but they both froze when they heard the RV door swing open.
"Dave? It's Taylor!"
In one swift move, he sat up while Anna rolled off of him and onto the floor, laying perfectly still in the tiny space between the bed and the wall.
"Whoa, you okay, man?" Taylor asked from the bedroom door, unable to see Anna from where he was standing.
"Yeah, just tired from the set," Dave said quickly and leaned forward to hide any evidence that Anna had just been all over him. Cold showers, a kick in the nuts, that time Gus forgot a towel and wandered around in front of everyone totally naked, he thought, eventually calming himself down enough to stand and actually listen to what Taylor was saying.
"... you were really great up there, man. Can we... you know... talk?"
"Yeah... let me just grab a shirt and we can take a walk." Dave casually walked back into the bedroom while Taylor waited. He pulled a shirt out of his suitcase and felt Anna's hand around his ankle, looking down at her as she silently laughed from the carpet. Dropping to his knees, he covered Anna's body with his own. "I'll be right back," he breathed. "Don't go anywhere." She nodded and kissed him, making him hop up as fast as he could before he had to focus on Gus's naked ass again to kill yet another Anna-induced hard-on.
Taylor frowned when Dave shut the bedroom door behind him. "Hey, where's Anna? I thought she came back here with you."
"She wanted to catch the Siouxsie set," Dave offered. "She's been a big fan since she was a kid."
*
"Anna...," Dave sang her name softly into the dark motorhome but stumbled up the steps and onto the carpeted floor with a loud thud. "Ow! Shit!"
He heard her grumble and the bed squeak when she turned over, but she was still after that. Goddamnit, he thought. Of course she fell asleep.
He and Taylor had walked around the entire backstage area at least five times before they finally came to the conclusion that they would readdress Taylor quitting after the gig tomorrow, but regardless of the outcome they would still remain friends. With the last huge stress off his shoulders, he crawled down the narrow hallway to the back room and up onto the bed.
"Annie...," he whispered, tasting pure tequila on his own breath. Jesus, how many shots did we do? he thought.
"David?" she stirred and rolled onto her back. "Hey, kitten. How'd it go?" she gave him a sleepy smile and sat up a little, revealing her black push up bra.
"Is that for me, Annie?" he asked, reaching out to hook his finger under the shoulder strap.
"David...," she laughed and ran her fingers through his hair once he crawled close enough.  "You're drunk!"
"Only a little," he frowned, worried she might not want to fool around with him anymore, but she pulled his face to hers and kissed him deeply, then giggled when he scrambled under the covers with her.
There was no way he would have said it sober, but the tequila swimming around in his blood thought it was the perfect comment to end the evening. "When are you gonna be ready to marry me and start on those eight kids?"
She hummed a little laugh against his chest then stretched against him so she could kiss his throat.
"Give me another five years, kitten."

While living in LA, we visited the no more than 5 times the ENTIRE year even though we said we wouldn’t take the for granted. We immediately regretted it after moving to land-locked Las Vegas.
Traffic was always our number one excuse for staying in, but we know we could have made the effort. Now that we’re back on the coast, we’re determined to enjoy San Diego’s beautiful es. We’re hoping to explore every in the area and make it out to a – new or old – once a week. Today, we put together a list of what to bring to the to help us and you stay organized.

What to Bring to the Beach - Our Beach Essentials Packing List
Beach Bag – It’s especially good if it’s like this one with a zipper or clasps at the top and you can use it as your personal carry on item too.
Dry Backpack or Dry Bag – Jacob likes to carry this backpack to keep our stuff dry.
 Reef Safe Sunscreen – Skin cancer is no joke! We used to love using our Neutrogena Dry Touch, but after reading up on what ingredients go into their sunscreens along with other big brands, we’ve found some great non-toxic alternatives. Keep in mind sunscreens above SPF 50 only add slightly more protection. If you find oxybenzone, octinoxate, octocrylene, homosalate, or octisalate on the label, it is not reef friendly. Mineral sunscreens with zinc oxide or titanium dioxide are generally safer.
Chapstick with SPF – Jacob’s burnt his lips more than once because he forgot about them. This one is SPF 30.
 Cheap Big Sunglasses – I keep my nicer pair in the car, so that they don’t get scratched up by the sand. You want big sunglasses to be able to protect all around your eye.
Sunhat – Gotta keep the sun off your face. The one I’m wearing above is from San Diego Hat Company.
 Swimsuit
 Swim Cover Up
Summer Attire – Summer dress, tank top or tee, and shorts.
Beach Towel – This is a cute watermelon one from ban.do.
 Beach Blanket or Portable Beach Mat – Lately, it’s been too cold to get in the water, so we like to bring a blanket to relax on. Jacob hates getting sand in everything, so that’s the best way to keep the sand away. We got ours a while back at our alma mater.
A Good Book – Nothings better than feeling the breeze, soaking in the sun, and enjoying a good book. We typically bring our Kindles with us so we have multiple options on what to read. I’m currently reading Slaughterhouse Five, and Jacob is currently reading The Giver. What about you?
A Light Jacket – Even though the is usually nice, winds can always pick up and make it chilly as the sun sets. Be sure to bring a light jacket to stay warm. We really like our Patagonia nano puff jackets that pack up small.
Change of Clothes – Always good to have just in case.
 Camera – Whether it’s a phone, a point-and-shoot, GoPro, or DSLR, we like to have at least one camera (if not all 4) to capture the moments.
Waterproof Flip Flops x2 or Water Shoes: These flip flops go with me everywhere. They’re so thin and light that I can pack them in the side pocket of my backpack and forget about them until I need them. Pack an extra pair in case one breaks. I’ve had flip flops break on me on trips before, and it’s never fun hobbling back to the hotel. You also might want to consider bringing water shoes if you’re at a with rocky surfaces.
 Baby Powder – It removes moisture from your skin so sand will fall off easily.
Bug Repellent
Kleenex Wet Wipes or Sanitizer – this is the germ removal kind.
Zip Lock Bags in Various Sizes – I actually bring ziplock bags on every trip because they’ve come in so handy on many occasions. You can use them to protect your phone and personal items from getting wet or pack your wet swimsuits afterward.
 Portable Phone Charger: This Anker charger keeps both our devices charged all day.
First Aid Kit – We don’t always pack one, but we know we should.
Snorkel, Mask, Fins – if you can snorkel right off the , we prefer to bring our own masks and snorkels since it fits our faces better.
Wetsuit – if you’re swimming out in San Diego, you need a thick wetsuit.
 Rash Guard – for extra protection from the sun.
 Spare Change for Parking Meter
 Snacks – To keep the hanger at bay, we always bring some of our favorite beef jerky or trail mix to appease the monster. It’s good to bring nice portable snacks that won’t melt in the sun. Great snack options are fruit, nuts, crackers, and power bars.
 Hydroflask Bottle or Growler – to keep your drinks cold.
 Cooler Filled With Water and Beverage of Choice – It’s always important to stay hydrated. Doctors recommend you drink 8 full glasses of water. I’ve never liked drinking regular water, so it’s been nice having our fridge full of Sparking ICE. They have over 20 sparkling water flavors, and they have no calories. I love the fizziness, and my favorite flavor so far is Peach Nectarine.

More Things to Bring to the Beach
These aren’t necessities but make life easier or more fun.
Beach Umbrella – Sure, you don’t need a umbrella, but once you use one, it’s hard to go back to the old life. This one is very packable and can turn into a sun or rain canopy or try this portable tent that’s easy to set up.
Camping Chairs – these fold down way smaller than chairs.
 Waterproof Portable Outdoor Speaker
 Towel Clips – to keep your towel in place
 Sand Coaster – to keep your drink from falling over.
Inflatable Lounger / Hammock
Giant Pool Float
Bodyboard
Float Strap – for cameras, phones, and other devices
Entertainment – Frisbee, Football, Volleyball Kite, Card Games, Toys to Play in the Sand, Slackline
 Whistle – It’s good to have especially when ing with children.
 Binoculars – to do some birding or to scout other wildlife.
 Walkie Talkie – if there’s no service
cutest watermelon cooler / bag that I’ve been toting everywhere!

Essential Tips
Pick a Beach Bag you don’t mind getting dirty. Large totes or medium size backpacks are good. Compartments and pockets help keep things organized and water resistance is always a plus.
Maximize space by using cubes and rolling your clothes and towels at the bottom of bag.
Leave most of your valuables at home including your nice pair of sunglasses.
Weigh your luggage to make sure they will not go over the allowed weight.
