Next Caller Pt 10

A deep sigh was heaved by you in folding your hand on your wrapped arm around the strap of your satchel tapping against your thigh. Slowly you were strolling down the street only to turn at the engine slowing on the car pulling up beside you. Through the Lowering window you spotted your bosses Dis and her husband Vili, both grinning at you while the later said, “Need a lift?”

“Um, well I doubt you’re headed my way, I’m off to Bubbles and Barrels.”

Dis smirked, “What a coincidence. So were we.”

“Why do I feel like if I turn you down ten more cars are gonna pull up from your clans?”

Dis hit the unlock button and replied, “Only ten? Surely we could manage fifteen.”

Vili in your move to the back seat shifted in the driver’s seat pointing to the lunch box on the seat adorably buckled in said, “We brought you a sandwich.”

Once you were settled you shifted to pull the seatbelt down once the door was shut asking, “It’s not shaped like a duck is it?”

Vili gave you a smirk, “Ah, I see Balin’s girl helped to make your mid session snack.”

Curiously you turned your head and reached across your chest to unhook the lid on the metal box. A cloth napkin was brought out to lay across your lap and inside a mint green paper bag you lifted the offered sandwich and carefully used your left hand to help your right fold back a bit of the paper to lift in your right for a bite.

Glancing between the two Dwarves up front stealing silent glances at one another through the first few streets you asked, “Hotels, huh?”

The question had the pair stealing glances back at you after you had swallowed, “So far I’ve met racers, shop owners, realtors, and apparently aspiring house painters, what drew you to hotels past the dimples.”

Vili all but snorted at the comment catching him off guard luring a laugh bursting free even against his late try to stop it making Dis chuckle more at his reaction to your words than anything else as he rarely snorted. “I answered an add as a teen for the Findis clan to work in their filing room. Got my business degree and worked my way to the front desk. Dimples were not my intention, in fact I continuously told a certain gangly Dwarf I had better things to do than share shakes.”

Findis chuckled and then said, “Yes, and then she hit me with her scooter and drug me across the parking lot.”

“You threw yourself in front of my scooter!” She retorted and you smirked through chewing your next bite. He promptly added, “You still drug me.”

“You wouldn’t let go of my fender, which you tore off with your body weight.”

“Still got a shake out of you.” He stole a glance back at you smirking through his proud statement of, “We were courting by that fall.”

“You tricked me into that formal.”

“I did no such thing.” He said then chuckled out, “Tili did. I was merely a pawn in her schemes same as you.”

For the rest of the drive they flowed through all the mishaps and blunders leading up to their wedding after which Dis was promoted again to help in the advertising team to help promote the hotel chain better to the younger generation to help their plans of growth while also honoring their past. Pulling into the parking lot of Bubbles and Barrels where Fili asked the question burning between them, “Any whirlwind romances for you?”

“Um, outside of novels no.”

“None at all?” Dis questioned.

“Well I was nearly engaged once,” that had them stealing a glance at each other. Vili bit his lip at your stating aloofly while you folded the paper and napkin carefully you placed back into the box ensuring you hadn’t made a mess. “But that lasted all of five minutes and it really wasn’t his fault anyone five bottles in laughs till they snort part of the sixth out their nose from a joke on muffins is bound to propose. Turned him down though once I got the poor guy back to his town car before anyone else could try for a title.”

Dis, “I highly doubt that is your only tryst.”

“Well there was Bressd. Though that ended when I found out it wasn’t the two of us.”

Vili parked and turned to face you with brows raised, “He cheated on you?!”

With a finger raised after unbuckling your belt you replied, “Technically I was the other woman, well, only woman really. But two teas later and I helped him introduce Ronald to his family and a good surrogate service.”

Vili, “That, was very,”

Dis, “Big of you.” She completed and you let out a giggle.

“Well you go on two dates with someone then meet their family on the third, who all share he’s been talking about babies and bought a house, there’s a brush fire somewhere in that grey room of nonsense.”

Chuckling to himself Vili started the group climb out of the car and walked to the trunk stating, “That’s all then?”

“There are few fools willing to cross genes with me. Just consider me a little green rotten apple.”

Dis, “Oh there is a limit when affections are strong enough.”

Her eyes lingered on you in your nod and step to walk with the duo now holding hands on your right. Again your left hand held onto the strap of your bag to keep it from swinging and she said, “You have people now to back your high standing here in Erebor.”

“It seems so.” Looking them over you asked, “What were you here to buy?”

Vili smirked, “Just browsing. It’s huge, we love to browse, see what’s new from time to time. And now we have ample time to help you. What all are you after?”

You shrugged, “Towels mostly, I think. Depending on what they have.”

He nodded and said, “We shall start on towels.”

Dis asked while Vili grabbed a cart by the front door, “Any ideas what you might like?”

“Um, well I was thinking of, well Mal got me these sunflower towels, so yellow for that bath, maybe blue for another, and orange for the other spare...maybe whales or something aquatic for blue and orange, foxes maybe, unless they have something else to go with orange.”

Dis, “For yours?”

“I have two towels for mine.”

She replied, “You need more.”

“Well I used to have a set but I found this baby kitten once and I took it in for the vet and it just decided to keep my towel. Then after that I had this really rude hawk burst into my window once and took off with two of my hand towels from the wash.” The pair smirked as you muttered, “Took me weeks to stitch those fish into them. Expensive thread too.”

Eyeing a stack of blenders on your right Vili asked, “Need a blender? These come with one of those hand choppers.”

“I can’t have a blender,” you said pulling out your notebook making the pair look you over, “My birds painted my old kitchen with my last one ruined nearly half of our fruit for the season.” When you glanced down at your book Vili’s lip quivered in his try not to grin stupidly at the image while Dis inhaled to keep her own giggles at bay.

On her feet she shifted and extended her hands to claim the book eyeing your sketches asking, “These are your plans?”

“Rough ideas more like. Mostly just the paint, the firm needed solid plans to go off of. But I have mini lists for each bath to start with.”

Halfway down the first aisle of towels Dis asked at a peculiar room sketch with nothing but a table in it. “What of this room? What will it’s use be?”

“I don’t know,” you replied feeling a stack of towels you moved past at its rough texture. “There’s a table in it though.”

That had her looking you over, “Nothing else you might like to add? That is not much to furnish a room’s function at all. Any clue on what kind of table at least?”

“I don’t know the room that well, we haven’t really met yet.”

Across her lips a grin eased at the common Dwarf feeling, though rarely spoken, by those designing or building things who find things in a sort of dated way or by a cozy feeling they get with the object, design or place. And it really clicked in the more she had skimmed through the book you had sketched, noted and scribbled various options for each area that you had dreamed of having a home.

That was the extent of it, a home, four walls a roof and floor able to be yours and secured to be safe inside from anyone or thing. A precious goal, though in the centuries in her imagination running while it was a vague place to you, always furnished to comfort, but with what? That was the riddle you were trying to solve, what would fit in purpose and comfort to match the full theme.

They had hoped to make this a quick in and out with plans to have you set for a date, it was obvious how deeply you affected her brother and how hard you had worked and greatly deserved this home they hoped could spell a sort of future with Thorin, however it did have to be yours first. And outside of that tiny apartment you had formed an impossibly quaint lifestyle in the impossible town, you had to now find yourself in this spacious abode and plant your roots to make it your own. They had flooded in but in a blink of clarity the Dam back stepped on trying to play match maker today and hoped to help build a friendship past the ranks of employment with your stunning self.

Again your lips moved and in a tick of her chin to keep from shaking her head she focused on your words. “I ordered these magazines, and like this store you look at all the things and you just have to say, it looks nice, but can I live with it?”

Vili nodded, “Took us twelve tries to find our couch.” That had Dis’ brows sinking in clear irritation, “Course the boys moved out while we were on a work trip and we came home to a bare spot in the den.”

Dis grumbled out, “Threw off the alignment to everything!”

Vili smirked saying as his hand smoothed across the small of her back, “We tried to find a duplicate but by then the company folded and the designs had been purchased and altered. Then you have the variations of fabrics and cushioning, then it’s new again so it never feels right for months after. It’s hard. Even tried to break into the boys’ place but they’d reupholstered it.”

Dis grit out, “In beige.”

Again in a try not to laugh you turned to the shelves and their eyes sank to your wrapped shoulder catching glimpses of the invisible additions to your skin they couldn’t wait to see once healed already loving the slightly pinker feather visible across your chest. Tilting your head back you touched a few more towels asking, “Is all they sell here sand paper? Naneth would scold me something awful if I put these out for guests. Might work for scrubbing cages...”

Vili chuckled saying, “We should try the Hobbit fabrics, these are from Gondor.”

“Maybe stamped from Gondor, but I know a woman with a loom company for their woven textiles who would be screaming at this quality. Even the dye flakes off.”

Dis smirked, “You worked in Gondor?”

In a glance up at her you said, “No, my five minute fiancé was from a textile dynasty. His Gran built it from nothing. Nearly lost it to her first husband.”

Vili, “Nasty divorce?”

“No. She asked him not to talk to a certain woman he had been flirting with and he tried to burn down her first store front.” Dis’ brow inched up, “She shot him in the neck with her crossbow.”

Dis nodded, “Well earned.”

You giggled turning the corner to head to the main aisle following the signs to the Hobbit section, “Then she had to restock her dyes and she met her second husband, another from a long dynasty. Sixty three years and he still stares at her like she’s the brightest thing in the sky.” The dreamy tone made the couple inch closer and both chuckle as you added, “And cheats in crosswords just to drive her up the wall.”

A lingering pause by the kitchen section had the pair smirking and following your dazed path through all the odds and ends until you paused at the colored set of knives on the end. A rather unremarkable brand and the cheapest and notably the easiest to dull and break making Vili turn to look at the displays and pint another out he pulled from the wall, “This is a better set. Lasts longer too, hardly ever dulls. Unless you’re our boys that is, manage to dull anything with a sharp edge somehow.”

“Hmm,” You said turning to face the box and he could instantly tell the interest was not there making him smirk and put the silver set back and step back saying, “They have a tangerine set as well.”

“Ooh,” You said moving closer and after an inspection of the box he chuckled and added it to the cart and continued on behind you on the path again to towels.

Sudden pause was enough to cause anyone with family or friends to spark into worry, and rounding a shelf corner that pause from you had Vili’s hair on end. Instantly his arm shifted halting Dis in her distracted path and her eyes fell to follow his gaze seeing your blind fumble with your waist band where a weapon would be on Elven armored uniforms. Clenching your hand to stop that thought retracting from those trained habits your body eased back at the approach of a female’s voice, and almost fluidly you eased between the shelves and cart shadowing yourself behind Vili. The motion not missed by the Dwarf instinctually puffing himself up causing his beard and mustache to bristle even in their chest tapping braids, and most especially not by the distant Dwarf manager stopping on his way to break.

All at once the murky blonde haired Elleth with an instant forced grin towering over the two stopped to say, “Two for one sales in the Hobbit section today for coral members. Are you a coral member?”

Behind Vili’s back Dis claimed the card you had mentioned upon entering the store Mal had loaned you for extra points for her and discounts for you that Dis passed to the Elleth, “I’m not exactly sure. Found it in my bag this morning, haven’t used it in forever.”

The Elleth looked it over and while the Dwarf manager slunk closer from the distance watching your now lowered gaze and hand partially curled over your face behind your shield of a companion worrying him all the more at it clearly not being a case of shyness. “You don’t look like a Baggins.”

Dis’ brow inched up and she said, “I’m a quarter Hobbit.”

Passing back the card she said, “You’re a pearl member, you’ll get the discount and half off on the bath fixtures as well.” Once Dis had claimed the card again the Elleth huffed and stalked away, “Can’t see why anyone would brag about being a Hobbit. Spindly little varmints.”

That had Dis puffing up and her eyes twitching wider in her palm folding around the card to keep from dragging the Elleth back here by her hair and pummeling her into the ground. Once she was out of sight Vili pivoted on his feet lowly asking, “Has she bothered you before?”

Breaking from your frozen stance your eyes and lingering panicked expression drew his hands to nearly clench into fists fighting the same urge Dis was feeling. “Not, not here. Back before I moved to Beryl.”

Dis asked in what she hoped to be a supportive tone rather than the growl she wanted to give, “What happened?”

“Her cousin, found me out in Duugpl, it’s our past Lindon, not really important, but, he told his family, including her.”

Vili trying not to be impatient asked trying to gently urge why you were scared of her, “They set off a cocktail in my building. If my neighbor hadn’t broken through my wall and burst the pipes in our ceiling-,”

The tears and chilling crack in your whisper of a voice had them stroking your back and Dis moving around to have them around you as the notices the manager’s approach. A problem solving grin hoping to ease some trust in your group spread across his face through his gentle question, “Pardon me, but I couldn’t help but notice your daughter’s reaction to one of my employees. Did she say or do something that bothered you?”

His eyes especially focusing on you as you wet your lips and said, “Your employee has been charged with domestic terrorism in Duugpl.”

Sharply he inhaled and asked, “Charged? Surely there was a trial if the charges are so severe.”

“Your employee and her relatives fled the country before the trial.” Glancing down you pulled out your phone pulling up an old note in an old contact you copied down on a slip of paper you tore from a blank page and passed to the manager, “The case number and contact info for the lead prosecutor on the case.”

With a nod he asked, “And you recognized her from the press on this case?”

“I lived in the building they set the explosions in. Killed four of my neighbors, wounded dozens of others.”

Hastily he nodded and said, “I assure you this will be dealt with. I will call the authorities myself.”

“None of her relatives work here, do they?”

He shook his head, “No. I assure you we will isolate her until she can be taken in.”

Dis stated, “I think it best she remain anonymous. If you understand.”

The manager nodded, “Of course, we will remain mum as to who alerted us to the matter. Thank you, and I assure you we will dig further into future applicants to assure this does not happen again. Please enjoy your day.”

You nodded and folded your fingers around your book and in his path away inhaled deeply and forced a grin to the pair looking you over, “I’m fine.”

Vili lowly asked, “Are you?”

You nodded and said, “Sales are waiting, sorry to dampen the mood.”

Dis’ hand settled on your arm under your wrap, “You did nothing wrong. However, I am curious-,”

Lowly you replied barely above a whisper, “My father funded a genocide, her line, was dissolved by.” Dis nodded as you added, “It was before I was even born, still, I’m blood.”

Vili tapped your other shoulder, “No one is hurting you again. You have people now. Our support.”

Dis, “Did you know your neighbors well, the ones who died?”

“I sat for them most nights while their parents worked. Whole family, I still have some drawings and pictures they gave me. They lived above me, too much heat, I used to have the most gorgeous Pyrrhuloxia Cardinal and Indigo Bunting, most stubborn little things ever. Didn’t think I’d have birds again after. But I stumbled across my flock of hummingbirds.”

Dis, “Well we hear they are all thriving in your care. Even our own Ravens wished to meet your rare zebra striped, mine has freckles on her wings.”

“She sounds adorable. I’ll try not to rain down too much gloom on the rest of our browsing. It seems even my neighbors are stunned about Belly, keep staring.”

Silently the pair slightly on edge kept watch around you in your first turn back into the Hobbit section until Dis asked unable to let go, “Why would she say that about Hobbits?”

Behind your hand you giggled and then stole a glance back up at her with a toothbrush tumbler in hand you were testing the weight of, “She’s of Eol’s blood, when they were displaced they were sent to a camp outside a Hobbiton. Long story short they pissed off the Thain, who then sent them their green potatoes,” Dis gave a throaty giggle she tried to hold in through Vili’s hand stroking over his face in the few moments of his shoulders shaking. “Among other things, they were not friendly or courteous to the people who granted them safety and were treated accordingly. All other races even Uruks and Trolls like Hobbits. With the obvious exception of Goblins, who hate everyone, but even they hate Hobbits the least.”

Vili switched the conversation back, “Why wouldn’t your neighbors stare? One of the rarest forms of Ravens.”

“I mean, I know that, just, it’s a bit odd. I mean how do I change that? Parade him through town, knock on each door, ‘here, pet him, feed him some grapes!’ I-,”

Vili started chuckling and glancing around trying to keep quiet in your turn to look at more bathroom decorations after adding a fox tumbler and soap dispenser to the cart in search of a blue and yellow set to finish off the other spare baths counter tops. Dis giggled out, “I am certain they have taken pictures. I doubt they would have to go to such extremes. Might throw a town event you could bring him to. Does your owl enjoy exploring?”

“Only at night. He doesn’t like crowds.”

Vili, “Well that’s to be expected. Great Owls rarely come by people in the wild.”

“I think he did like being around the guys when we moved though, even inside his basket. Just doesn’t like being stared at, knowing the rarity he is.”

Dis, “Has he met any other Great Owls?”

“Took him to the aviary few months back, he met Hector, their old rescue Owl lost in that storm.”

Vili, “Yes, we took Balin’s girl for one of the mini tours he allows. Saw his foot and his tail feathers.” Making you giggle, “Even the glimpse was worth it, then she dropped her toy and we went to grab it as she whined and we saw one of his eyes. Nearly the size of my head in that stunning silver and green, cocked his head looking her over until she smiled then he turned around again, back to hiding.”

“They are fascinated with babies, all our neighbors I sat for let him peek in at them when they were infants before they could start to try and grab feathers or his feet.”

Dis, “He might like Frodo, rarely grabs at birds, understands they are to be respected.”

“I think he’s warming up to people. Belly keeps telling him about our neighbors.” Turning your head you asked, “Walrus?” Showing a Walrus tooth brush holder to the now smirking pair.

Vili, “I think it’s cute.”

You nodded and added it to the cart, “It’ll go with blue.” A set of bumblebee themed items were for the flower themed room and you found the towels.

Large towels in dark solid tones were matched with striped lighter hand drying ones and decorated wash cloths and plain solid ones to match the large towels. Purple and grey were chosen for yours to add a few more to your own supply. Then you moved past the shower curtains to find trash cans for each and mats to sit outside the tile and glass wrapped showers in each. The final touch was some bubble slip guard stickers for the floor of yours just in case you got in or out a bit groggy with shaggy mats as well.

A decent section of rugs and mats came next, a few every feet you reached out to touch only to leave it there or make a mental note of them. However Dis pointed out a thick shag one for your already carpeted study, “What about this one for your study?” You glanced at her with a brow raised, “For under your desk. I can’t tell you how much dust gathers there, and the boys used to eat at mine so it would have crumbs galore, then you can just pull out the mat to clean.” With a subtle nod you eyed the selection and she asked, “Have you chosen a desk yet?”

“Not yet. I found this davenport I like, but also this sort of tree shaped one, and a darker one that’s more of a coffee table, but the last one has no drawers, so I’d have to put it somewhere I wouldn’t need things. Like maybe for a vase or, my phone, pictures, or, something. I don’t really need much from my desk, probably just a place to set my typewriter between drafts, I’ll be doing most from my lounges most likely.”

Vili, “Typewriter? You write stories?”

“Part of the best way to get through Ruun, story telling. I have a laptop, but it’s mostly for my movies, or was, friends went and bought me projectors and the whole nine yards with it. Nothing like a good hard copy of a draft.”

Dis smirked, “You and Gorgo would get along famously.”

Weakly you chuckled and turned the corner to spot a full wall of roombas making you heave a deep sigh. The sound making the Dam glance between you and the displays curiously before asking, “Do, do you want a roomba?”

“I don’t have-,” instantly your brows popped up and your hand jut out to grab her arm splitting a grin across her lips at your excited squeak of, “I have room for a roomba!”

Lowly Vili chuckled and moved closer grabbing one of the best saying, “We’re getting this for you.”

“But-,” You said in your turn only making him shake his head to hide his idiotic grin.

“No, our treat, our house warming gift to you.”

“Thorin already got me the kettle, and the tea.”

Dis retorted, “From him and those at the shop, not from us. You clean for us for hours let us help clean yours. I heard your home has central vacuuming system should work nicely with this one.”

You looked to the box, exactly the one you had wanted, a tiny bot floating in the center of the roomba that would pop off for a higher grade of scrubbing or cleaning when the roomba would alert it needed help, complete with grout cleaning feature for tile floors. “It’s so expensive though.”

Vili chuckled, “It’s quality. It lasts, we have two of these, one for home and the other for the office. The scrubbers are just downright adorable too.”

Bed sheets seemed to just appear endlessly as you walked around the next shelf and watching you carefully the initial pause at the mint sheets. One large set paired with a thick plushy white comforter, white and mint pillows to finish off the bedroom you were planning for your mother and her husband for a possible visit with a sketch of it Dis adored at each detail you had planned in their tastes.

Next was for your sisters and possible future siblings. Adult sized beds settled into bunk beds with staircases between the sets of four across from a play and reading area for them. Peach and white was chosen with cute accenting fuzzy woven throws.

The next spare bed was twin beds set in fours with grey, white and orange also with cushioned headboards. Orange dust ruffles with white sheets and a pleated grey comforter folded down under the white and orange pillows complete with orange throw to match.

Blue and white striped comforters over navy sheets and with orange, white and navy striped pillows, across the room was a similar set with the stripes going horizontally over vertically. Possibly one of the most colorful of the spare rooms the couple could tell that their relatives would enjoy staying in should Thorin be able to secure a relationship with you to begin entertaining in your cozy home that could one day have pebbles of its own to help claim all of these hopeful beds to join your own.

More and more aids came up and on their own brought up spare carts to be held for you at the front, each with adoring chuckles between comments to the couple on their child off to university who seemed to be planning their dorm for seasonal themes. The thought was amusing to the workers and slightly amusing for the couple ready to meet their own twin girls soon enough. Each thing chosen was confirmed not too much by the pair insisting they were fine to take the day bonding with you and trying not to chuckle that you were decorating beds you hadn’t bought yet to work your way backwards in a way.

The last stop was candles, and an adoring take on your smoke room would be used for your tries at a meditation room. Candles, possibly a Thai Chi section, or at least that was the plan until you found something else to do with it. For now at least it housed your painting supplies and easel and just in case you would gather up some spare candles if the lanterns ever wouldn’t work in a storm or for whatever other reason.

From there to the registers you put on your blinders to keep from going any more overboard and behind the counter that same manager was there with a grin confirming the authorities had already taken the Elleth into custody confirming she was in fact wanted leading to a search for her relatives involved before she could warn them. Gladly he watched your bags being carried out to the car Vili had gone to pull up to the door filling up the trunk and half the back seat while you signed for the great deal you got on everything. For the drive back your fingers rose to smooth around the tape holding the wrap on your arm, lost in thought on what step to take next at home.

Designated Cuddler

Reader x Chris Motionless Surprise!! I’m your Secret Santa @fanpagesforbands570

I hope you like it :) ////////////////////////////////////

December 24th

Tours were always hard but tours during the holidays were the hardest. These were times when most people spent time with their families and loved ones, but instead we were on tour until two days after Christmas. Of course the guys are needy since they have been away from their wives, girlfriends or…”other”. But this is taking the cake.

“Dude I don’t care how much I look like your chick from the back, stop trying to cuddle me!!” Vinny yelled in annoyance (and slight terror) at Ryan as he broke free from his arms.

“Dude when you joined you knew what you were getting into.” Ricky reminded him as he edited the new batch of clips for the update video.

“Then you cuddle him!!”

“Hell no I a one cuddler kinda guy.”

“Yeah Vin how would he explain it to Ghost.” Ryan laughs as Ricky chucks his shoe at him.

“Where Y/A? Ask her to cuddle you.” Vinny says as he wraps an giant bulls blanket around him, got to love fan gifts.

“Hugged up with Chris. He hasn’t let her go for the last 3 days and it’s not fair!!” Ryan yells back to bunks.

You giggle quietly at Ryan’s frustration and squeal when you feel Chris tighten his grip on your waist in his sleep. You see you were the merch girl but had recently earned an additional job title as the “Designated Cuddler” which the guys have been taking full advantage of…if they could get you away from Chris long enough that is. At first they tried scheduling times but that lead to fighting, so now it’s first come first served, whoever is awake at 5am when you’re up gets you first. Chris has been the early bird 3 days in a row and right after you both wake up he drags you back to his bunk. He is not an early bird. Anyway, it was Christmas Eve and you all decided to rent out a place for two days and do Christmas right. It was a quaint little place made or brick and had large picture windows, and a wrap around porch. It was two stories and had beautiful views of the lake and city lights right across. To be honest you couldn’t wait to get there.

“Chris, Chris…Christopher! Wake up!!” In a rather quick movement Chris had you turned toward him, his legs wrapped around yours and your face in his chest. You look up gazing at his neck tattoo as as he sits his chin on your head. His deep morning chuckle making your blush as he kisses the top of your head and lets you go. You swing your legs to the edge of the bunk and slide out.

“We should arrive soon so get up and get ready.”

“Alright, alright. But only if I can get a kiss.” He says winking at you. You blush and get as far away from the bunk as possible to your embarrassment but to the happiness of Vinny, Ryan was starting to get handsy. /////////////////

The pictures you saw online didn’t do this place justice. It was gorgeous. There had been a fresh snow fall just before you arrived so it definitely gave it a Christmas feel. The outside was decorated with lights and they even had a tee inside waiting to be decorated. These people were definitely getting a good review!!

Everyone piles out of the bus and indoors with their bags, happy to be out of the rolling bullet (why do you still let Chris drive?!) but also happy to be spending the holidays in a house with showers and a washing machine.

“Dude this is awesome!!”

“Finally a real shower!”

“Thank God because you all stink. And wash your bunk sheets while we’re here!!”

“Ok so who’s bunking with who?” Ricky ask looking at everyone as they explore the living room and kitchen.

“Who cares so long as I don’t have to share a bed with any of you. Waking up being spooned and groped by you guys if an experience I don’t want to experience ever again in life.” Vinny says as he glares at Ricky while we all laugh.

“Well I call the room with Y/N. You fucks can figure out your own rooms.”

Chris picks you up without warning and hoist you over his shoulders as you squeal and laugh up to one of the rooms.

Chris dumps on one of the beds with a bounce as he drops the bags in a corner. There are two full sized beds in the room but if history keeps repeating itself you and Chris would only be using one. Either he would drag you to his bed or half l way through the night climb into yours. Not that you mind since this was how your “job title” started. Chris sits on the edge of his bed plugging his phone up to charge.

“I’m going to go soak in the tub then take a long comforting nap, think you guys can figure out the menu?”

You stretch hearing your joints pop into place before go to your bags and pulling out the things you need, especially the lavender and honey bath bomb Chris got for you on you last day off some stops back. He pulls you between his long legs and looks up at you. His thumbs rubbing soothing circles on your lower back.

“Yeah, we might just or something to be delivered. After everyone calms down we’re all probably going to pass out. It’s a good thing we got food before we got here.”

You slide your hands up his chest to his shoulders and down his back he leans his forehead against your chest the both of you enjoying the soothing silence of falling snow and the possibility of the over grown children probably passed out somewhere on the house.

/////////////

December 25th

Cuddled into Chris’s chest is probably one of the best perks you could get. He was warm, comfortable and gave the best hugs. Half way though the night after a afternoon nap, and wrangling the “children” for tree decorating ( one of these days I’m going to kill Ricky and his camera), baking cookies ( thank god they were the precut holiday ones, Vinny and Ryan are not allowed to be in the kitchen with flour EVER again) and taking a family photo that looks like parents trying to control their kids and just accepting defeat; we were able to get gifts under the tree and everyone to bed. You and Chris were sleeping heavy with you across his chest and his arm wrapped tightly around your wait as you both snore away.

“Are they awake?”

“Not yet, should we wake them?”

“Not til I get the camera ready, aaaaannnnnddddd…..NOW!!

“MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!”

“THE FUCK!!??”

A loud scream from you and a loud thud as Chris face plants the carpet. There’s a loud cacophony of laughs and hollers as Ricky gets a good recording of you looking like a deer in headlights trying to decide to fight or flight and Chris in nothing but his sweatpants just laying on the floor contemplating killing and burying his band mates in the nearby pine forest.

“Ok ok, let’s go open presents now.” Ghost says trying to get everyone to calm down and out the room before Chris can act on his thoughts. After the guys leave and the door closes you crawl across the bed and look down as Chris starts to slowly sit up. You place a gentle kiss on the bump forming on his forehead.

“You ok?”

“Yeah I’m ok”

He stands up fully and takes your hand. You grab one of his sweat shirts and he take another and the both of you make your way down the stairs to the battle ground of wrapping paper and gift boxes.

///////////////////

As the day of gift giving and hyper activeness started to winding down, the guys decided to go pick up dinner for tonight from a restaurant on town that was lucky still open and some more treats for after dinner. You and Chris’s decided that your parental duties have finally come to a pause enough for you both to relax next to the fire place and look at the tree with snow falling past the window outside.

“Hey Y/N”

“Hmm?”

You rub the tiredness for your eyes as you cuddle back into his chest.

“I still have a special gift to give you before the others get back. He say in his low soothing voice.

“What is it?” You say looking up barely keeping your eyes open.

He smiles and gives you a gentle kiss on the lips. Your eyes slowly open fully as he pulls away from the kiss.

“I was wondering if you would be my designated cuddler?”

“I’m already a designated cuddler..”

He chuckles and kisses your forehead.

“No, I mean like my girlfriend. You don’t have to answer right away, but I hope you will.”

You lay your head on his chest and smile, “I will.”

“You will?”

“Yeah”

He smiles and kisses the top of your head. You both lay there in blissful silence…

“MOM, DAD!!! WE’RE HOME!!”

Keep it slow (Bandit x Jäger)

It was an early morning back in Germany, air cool against his skin, the sun was slowly rising in the horizon, on a road cutting through fields in the middle of nowhere, some place near Dusseldorf he had never encountered. The wind made the leaves dance high in their branches, catching Marius' attention. Did everyone experienced the world as vividly as he did ? The countryside had always been a favorite place of his despite his love for machinery, a way to flee the painful city. Working on motorcycles and cars in a wooden barn around his hometown at sixteen was part of the best days of his life, surrounded by the quiet greenery and the random chirping of passing birds. He could think there, nothing to bother him for hours on end, nothing to crowd his mind. He'd lay down in the grass after a while, looking up at the blue sky. All kinds of books would await him in the evening, helicopters remaining his wildest dreams. The only compensation was to help the old man lending him the space, he sometimes missed those simpler days when things got ugly.

"Do you have any data yet? I'm lost on this fucking map."

Dominic "Bandit" Brunsmeier, his best friend. They've known each other for a few years now, Dominic liked to keep to himself and it had been difficult at first but the ice had melted between them. Now Marius couldn't imagine a life without him in it. The older man hadn't got it easy, a drawn out undercover mission that left both physical and psychological scars, losing his family in the process. The way he talked was akin to dark humour, cracking up jokes to tell the other how he felt, what he had done. Marius didn't always get it but he tried. Dominic was no-nonsense when it came to his work and Marius liked it, focused on the task at end just like he was, if not slightly enjoying it sometimes. They got along well.

So well that Jäger realised he had fallen in love.

Talking about cars and motorcycles, the later being of huge interest to his best friend, even going as far as to work on Dominic's one together. Going on small trips with the rest of the GSG9 (or not) around Hereford, engine roaring, Marius' hands firmly in place on Dominic's sides as they enjoyed the adrenaline. The long hours of doing nothing but being in each other's company, nose in books, watching TV, hands tinkering with objects. The way Bandit could make him focus on days when everything was too much too quickly, when he felt like he couldn't escape the noise and surrounding blur. Marius felt comfortable when Dominic was by his side.

Until he didn't, until Smoke was in the picture and Bandit started talking about past lovers and soiled sheets, until he heard details of tongues in intimate places and mouths full of hot, sticky love, until multiple partners at once were mentioned and how nothing could top off such experiences, how he had lost himself in random bathrooms knees on cold floors too busy doing something else rather than watching the movie on the screen, stranger's hands in his hair and a will to forget everything else. Until he said he wasn't certain he could love someone ever again. Maybe it had to be expected, he was scarred so deep he feared being burnt again.

They have seen each other crying in the middle of the night, uncertainties, fears, traumas, pain, nightmares, words soothing but wounds never healing. When Marius wasn't joyful and gentle he was distant and anxious. When Dominic wasn't confident and mischievous he was depressed and self-loathing. Countless nights were spent with a hand around Marius' arm, resting on his stomach or holding him in his sleep to make sure he was still there and breathing. Countless nights where long gone names resonated off the walls, be it from untimely death or abandon. Countless nights where Dominic would look at him like he didn't believe Marius was still there by his side, realising it had been a nightmare all along. He couldn't blame him.

"Not yet, maybe we should get going, it's stressing me out."

Despite all of this... He couldn't let it go. The blond hair split by a mysterious scar, trimmed beard, brown eyes and hooded lids always on the lookout, pink lips on which his name sounded ten times softer, the tattoos which he thought were over the top but wouldn't question, the outside showing danger but a heart twice as big as he let on, hunched over the hood of the car now and cursing at the paper map threatening to blow away with the wind, the glance he just gave him screaming it'll be alright'. Nothing could make this sliver of hope go away when he looked at Dominic.

They finally arrived after an additional half an hour of struggling to get ahold of Marius' uncle and rolling around the neighborhoods, the rented hall finally revealing itself outside the city. It looked inviting surrounded by trees and other greenery, the large window panes giving them a glimpse of the upcoming chaos. Marius wasn't that fond of family gatherings.

The Streicher way consisted of family and friends getting together for a day, usually during summer, an abundance of food, people, children and music, all of which had a way to wear him down after just a few hours. He always found it funny how his line of work broke him less than these events, still, he wouldn't miss it if he could make time for it as he liked most of these people. Dominic had long been adopted by them so he agreed to join and be somewhat of an emotional support. Marius knew he also craved these sorts of interactions having no family members willing to talk to him left, they complemented each other's needs that way.

The first few steps inside were just as expected as the noise reached them with full force, children running around, different smells mangling together and worst of all, the addition of a dancefloor and its accompanying DJ. Bandit seemed to have spotted the buffet but stopped himself in time to realise that maybe he should greet everyone before indulging. Gluttony incarnate, Jäger thought.

It was hot inside, Jäger had long since lost Bandit who knows where, though probably close to the buffet. It was time for a break outside away from all the noise, children were playing out there but he could live with it for now. It had felt like an eternity, answering questions over and over from everybody under the sun, most of the time having to repeat himself, again. He took a seat at the furthest part of the venue's garden, bathed in the sun and surrounded by magnificent pink rose bushes. It was nice being around people he had spent his childhood with for a change. A soft breeze against his cheeks reminded him of his adolescence again, the choices and missed opportunities. Overall, he was happy, wasn't he ? As happy as could be when you suffered from PTSD and mild injuries, sure, but happy nonetheless. He had found another part of his family with rainbow, one that could surpass his expectations, one where he didn't worry being himself. He loved his biological one but rainbow was where he was his full self. And... He had Dominic now, too. Fuck, he can't stop thinking about him, can he ?

Where was he anyway? His eyes spotted a figure coming towards him but it was far from the bearded man, a young brunette in a long, ankle length dress and a nice, white brimmed hat was indeed coming closer. He recognized her, she was a family friend. Each and every time they met, she would make sure he felt alright, initiating small talk and offering drinks. She was several years younger, wasn't she ? She took a seat next to him, the same song and dance they usually went through. Now Jäger had to go through the same round of questions he had already went through earlier today. She started monologuing, not unusual since Marius had a hard time relating or even caring. She seemed like a good person but unless you talked about his few interests, he could completely be turned off. Plus, she kept leaning against him.

That was when he felt watched. Eyes darting towards the building, Dominic was standing at the door nursing a drink, looking right at them. After a while of staring, he left. Hm, peculiar.

It was almost midnight, the cold air rolling in from outside alleviating the hot and humid sensation still lingering from such a busy day indoors. Marius was sitting at one of the round tables nursing a glass of alcohol, an ineffective way of drowning the ever growing discomfort his surroundings were giving him. He quickly spotted Bandit coming in big strides towards him, picking up a chair before seating himself close to the engineer. "You're drinking again ? Guess I'll be the one driving us home." "Doesn't it always ends like this?" He earned a laugh from Dom. "We should stick around a bit and then leave, I'm getting tired." "Alright, the buffet is empty anyway and I'm getting bored of your drunken uncles and all. Nice people but I can't stomach the politics." Jäger couldn't help but snort, it was so typical it almost sounded like a parody of himself.

They stayed here for a while, just looking at the others enjoying themselves. The music had gotten softer as the day had progressed, which they were both glad for, until the lights got switched off leaving space for a more intimate ambience. People gathered in pairs towards the DJ, the music started again and... It was a slow. The two defenders looked at each other, surprised. That was new. Jäger felt a feeling tugging around in his stomach, like an envy. Wouldn't it be nice to be so close to Dominic, just like they were ? "You know-... Oh fuck, not again." Dominic put his face in his hands, visibly annoyed. "What's wrong?" "She's coming towards us, that gal you were talking with earlier today." He tried pointing in her general direction as subtly as he could. "She keeps flirting with you Marius." "What ? No, she's not, she's just being nice. I've known her for years, she's one of my cousin's friends." "Yeah and that friend looks at you like she looks at a Snickers bar, believe me, she wants you. Can't you see her body language? Wait, of course you don't but I saw it from meters away!" Dom whispered.

Before Jäger could interject, the woman was taking a seat next to the both of them. "Hi boys, what are you talking about?" "Just work." Bandit's voice sounded like a growl, his expression somewhere near anger. "Need anything ?" "Oh I just wanted to spend some time with Marius, we don't get to do that often, do we?" She put her hand on Jäger's arm as she said this, whom put his glass down before dropping it from stress. The atmosphere was almost suffocating, the two of them ready to jump at each other's throat while he was stuck in the middle. What was going on?

"You know what, let's dance together Marius ! This would be so romantic, don't you think?"

Jäger's mouth felt dry. Dominic was right. How was he going to get himself out of this ? He felt uncomfortable shifting in his seat, the woman staring at him almost pleadingly, hopeful that her advances would be successful. Nobody knew he wasn't into women, he was too scared to be open about it. Should he keep the facade and accept? The thought made his stomach turn not only because it would be lying to others while caging himself down but because the only person he wanted to be close with was Dominic. Looking back at her, her head cocked to the side like a confused puppy, eyebrows raised, Marius felt a slight panic. He had to act, didn't he? He tried opening his mouth but fear pushed his words back in his throat, his heart pulsing harder and harder. Shuffling beside them finally broke the awkward tension rising.

"Sorry darling, this man's taken."

The hand that grabbed Marius' pulled him up from his chair and before he knew it, they found themselves in the middle of the other couples. Dimmed lights were hiding the bright smile on Dominic's face as he tried his best not to erupt in laughter. Marius was unsure if he should be focusing on the divine looking man in front of him, shifting lights changing the features of his face as they tried to 'dance', or the hands firmly planted on his hips. "That's not where you put your hands, you look awkward, have you never done this before ?" Bandit said close to his ear. The negative head shake he got in return made him laugh. "Let me show you." Bandit grabbed his wrist ever so gently, Jäger's arms now placed around his neck, bodies almost flush against one another, hands traveling down to the other's hips again. "God you're clumsy !" Dominic was talking but it was barely registering, Marius laughed when he thought he had to pretending not to be looking at the other's lips with need. He tentatively turned his attention to the rest of the room only to be stopped in his tracks.

"Just look at me." And so he did, his gaze never leaving Dominic's, the only person he had almost no issue doing so. Since when did Dom smell this good ? A faint mix of nicotine and cologne he couldn't ignore now, every fiber of him was screaming how much he wanted Bandit. To Marius he was the embodiment of temptation, perfectly sculpted, charming despite some parts of his personality and he would be lying if it didn't add to it in some way. It had been so hard hiding it, pretending for the sake of their friendship. There was nothing he could do, he needed him, he couldn't do without him, his heart was slamming against his ribcage like it was about to jump out. Marius wanted to show him he didn't have to be alone, heal this ache he knew he had in his chest-

The was, kissing Dominic. The feeling of lips on lips, the taste of alcohol and sweets still on his skin transferring onto Jäger's, hands traveled up to Dominic's hair pulling him closer with desperate need. Was he being pulled closer as well or was it just his imagination ? It was unclear who of the two initiated the addition of tongues in the middle of it all but there was no complaining. Dominic was sure Marius had left out a small whine as he playfully bit his bottom lip, a slight feeling of possessiveness growing. How many times had Jäger dreamed of doing this ? How many times had he been close to act upon his deepest wishes ? There was no going back, he was loving every single second of it, oblivious to the world around him.

The world around him.

The kiss broke as suddenly as it had started, Dominic's fingers hurting his midsection while Marius' hands caressed the messy hair underneath them. The world around him. There was a glimmer in Dominic's eyes, gears turning inside that silly head of his. The world around him, the world around him. Butterfly kisses were placed on his cheeks, beard scratching at his skin. Eyes darted around the room, distinguishing silhouettes from the dark background. Eyes, stares. What was Dominic doing? The world around him. Lips trailed down to his neck, softly kissing the pale skin underneath as they're staring a hand caressing his lower back as they were still attempting to follow a semblance of rythm like the other couples. They're not a couple, what if this is unwelcome? What if he's pretending ? A hand pushed past the collar of his shirt, the tie and first few buttons long gone due to the heat and as everyone was looking fingers traced his collarbone. They shouldn't be doing this here. Whispers fell into his ear but their message was left cryptic in Jäger's mind because he was going to get Dominic hurt, was he going to get hurt? No, that's absurd. What if somebody reacts badly? He shouldn't have done that, but it's irrational

Shaking hands pushed the bearded man away as softly as they could, Marius felt as if he was watching the events unfold, unable to control what was happening. "I'm sorry..." He could hear his name behind his back as he made a beeline for the closest exit to the parking lot. Several people tried talking to him but he wasn't looking for a chat, especially not right now. He swung the double doors open nearly running into the few men having a smoke outside. He ignored his name, the question being raised. Marius wanted out and away.

It was a disaster, he had made a mistake, outed himself to his whole family and friends, kissed his best friend when he shouldn't have and was now ready to ignore everybody and hide until the end of times. He loved Dominic so dearly, it hurt just thinking about how their relationship might change for the worst. He stopped himself against their car, finally able to breathe for a while. Could he even fix this ? Not without time travel he thought. The sound of footsteps on the gravel fueled his anxiety, he didn't want to see anybody, explain himself, or worse.

"Give me the keys."

That was it, he fucked up, Dom was going to leave him here and he would be right to do so. Marius overstepped boundaries and there was clearly no going back, he was going to lose him right then and there for a joke he hadn't understood, or he ignored even. He gave him the keys, barely looking in an attempt to hide the tears threatening to fall.

"What are you waiting for? Get in, we're running away!" Running away ? Curiosity almost overrid his previous thoughts because what the hell was he talking about? What are they running from ? He obliged, avoiding to look at the other German. The car came to life and they quickly made it away from the venue. Dominic wasn't mad.

"Fuck Marius... You're going to hate me." He was clearly suppressing a laugh. "What did you do ? Should I be worried ?" "After you left, a few of your very drunk family members thought they should give me a piece of their mind about two men kissing." Jäger was mortified, the worst case scenario was happening, wasn't it ? "So I told them to go suck a dick or lick some pussy to calm down." Bandit was now trying his hardest not to burst into full blown laughter. "But there were kids around, so a few parents got pretty angry but I kept cursing while running out for you! Don't look at your phone, I'm sure there's nothing worthwhile on it. Your uncle was worried but he just laughed so hard, even waved me goodbye!" That was it. That was the thing that pushed Jäger to a fit of laughter he had rarely had before, closely followed by Bandit's. What was Dominic thinking ? Scratch everything, this was the best outcome possible.

The minutes passed quicker than expected, both finally calming down after a while, still, Jäger couldn't brush off the idea that what he did was wrong in some way. They stopped at a red light not far from the apartment, the car drowned in the shade. "Dominic... You're not mad at me ?" There was a pause as they looked at each other. The eldest finally broke the silence. "No, why would I be ? Wait, did you believe I would be ?" There was a nod on Jäger's part.

"Fuck, Marius... Have you seen how we kissed ? Do you really think I'd be angry? I've been waiting for that to happen for a while. No matter how I tried to make you wary of me you still looked at me like I was your world. Don't tell me otherwise, you're not the best when it comes to discretion." Bandit came closer, faces inches apart making the other look away. "Look at me." Bandit tried softer when he realized his words were sharper than intended, as usual. "Please Marius, look at me." He waited until he tentatively turned his head again. "I've been in love with you too. I love you, I really do." It was Dominic who initiated this time, pressing themselves together as best as they could in the car. It was soft, oh so soft, like he was trying to declare his love as gently as possible in this single act. Hands found themselves traveling down Jäger's torso with an obvious need to discover each and every spot. The heat sure was quickly rising. "Fuck, Dom" the man crashed against him harder at his name, tongues rougher and shirt buttons popping off their holes. "Dom, the light's green..."

Oh. "Fuck !" Bandit left out a giggle that surprisingly made its way down Jäger's stomach, a flutter forming. It was happening, he had what he had dreamed about, it was happening, oh God-A hand sitting on his thigh sure did become a distraction from his own thoughts, which rapidly headed down south.

The car finally came to a stop in the parking lot, the two lovers pressing themselves out of the vehicle. Hands found themselves entangled without even having to wonder about it. It felt natural, didn't it? The elevator came down with a satisfying ding allowing them to enter into momentary privacy, butterfly kisses being spread across cheekbones and necks.

They tried to straighten themselves right before having to step out but anybody could tell, right? Maybe by the way Bandit was pulling Jäger by the arm, an idea rummaging in his mind Jäger was sure they both shared, or the fact that the engineer's shirt was open already. Dominic was the one pinned to the wall when Marius looked for his keys, the keyhole too hard to find while desperately kissing another man in the middle of a barely lit hallway.

But when the door gave in, allowing them in, they both knew the night was long from over.

Note

1 and 2 for the long asks. Hope your having a g8 day Amanda!

1. Describe your dream house:

I want ranch style / single level home 3/4 bedrooms - 2 baths. Single family, lot of acreage but not so far from civilization that getting milk and bread takes a half an hour. I wanna be in the woods/mountains but wouldn’t mind being nearby a beach either. I want a lot of flowers (esp sunflowers) and different types of trees - willows, the froot-loop tree (I always forget the real name), Japanese maples... a lot of variety. Fenced in yard (one of those wrought iron ones so you can still see out but it’ll keep animals in). I would like a really nifty pool (i am assuming cost is not a factor here btw). And I mean NIFTY. Like - an underground with waterfall features, lights, speakers, a cave-like feature and heated so I could use it all the time. A pond with koi, turtles, etc. Bird feeders everywhere.

Inside would be an absolute hodgepodge because I like so many different styles. Rustic, modern, minimalistic, cottagecore, witchy vibes, boho. I want a lot of windows though, a lot of natural light and sunshine. I want a huge fishtank with salt-water fish. I want snakes, doggos, a sheep. My Lola bee would have so much room to follow me around.

I want it cozy, not a bunch of square footage. I’ve lived in a house with unused rooms and empty spaces and it felt cold and unwelcoming. Smaller homes are more, well, homey.

I want built in Bluetooth speakers everywhere with the main control being my PC so I could pop on music and hear it clearly in any room at any time. Bathroom, Kitchen, bedrooms, I mean everywhere.

Electric fireplace because I am too scared to start fires myself and also because gathering wood is a PITA and bugs. lol

It would be decorated with things that make me happy - i dont care if it seems silly or weird or baby-ish. A basement for storage and/or additional space. And bonus if there’s a little loft area that I could use as a little relaxation space. I want a reading nook - one of those Bay window type deals with the bench in them so you can lay and read. Floor to ceiling shelves. A window-box thing I could fill with plants or decorate for the holidays. A three-season room of all windows I could use. Tho add heating and cooling and make it an all seasons room lol

OBVS central heating and cooling that can be adjusted per room to save on energy and just because some rooms tend to run hotter/colder than others depending on insulation and other factors.

A luxurious master bath - jetted jacuzzi tub, double shower with rainfall shower head as well as the standard one, double vanity. Hot water that never runs out so I can sit in the bath for as long as I want.

A wrap around porch so I could put a swing out and watch storms.

A swing in the backyard that could support my weight because I LOVE swinging and listening to music.

An area in the basement I could use for rollerblading.

A shed in the backyard with heating and cooling that I can finish up and have a desk and a daybed in - a few windows, too. So in the winter I could go outside and see the snowfall as I sit in there reading or nap. In the spring open the window and listen to birdsong. In the fall I could feel the cool breeze and see the leaves changing colors as I write. In the summer I could nap while listening to thunderstorms and the rain pounding on the roof.

That’s just off the top of my head >> lol

2. What’s your top 5 songs at the moment and why?

I actually spent some time this afternoon listening to a bunch of new music so there’s gonna be some newbies on this list (at least they’re new to me).

Way Less Sad by AJR: This is a new song for me, and it’s just... it’s just so accurate. I’ve been struggling with my depression a long, long time and recently it’s been weird. Actually, ever since 2020 it’s been weird AF, which makes sense. But I’m in a place right now where... I’m not at rock bottom. I have moments still where I am having thoughts of the big S but they’re few now. I still struggle with motivation and such, but it may be more an ADHD thing than just depression. I am finding myself digging more upbeat music rather than the emo songs I usually am engrossed in. So yeah. It’s not perfect but it’s... less.

Candy Coated Lie$ by Hot Milk: Another newbie that I discovered today but it’s super catchy and came at me while I was scrolling through the Loki tag so naturally now I am gonna be thinking of him whenever I listen to this song.

Line Without A Hook by Ricky Montgomery: It’s just sooo much fun. It’s also not got a clear hook or chorus so it lacks repetition which adds something to it that a lot of others songs don’t. The beat is great and it’s danceable (at least if you’re me - anything is) and the metaphors and imagery is great.

rosalie by BAYBE: Normally not my type of song (I’m a pop-punk/emo kinda gal) but this song is just the right mix of chill and sensual that I dig it.

Candyfloss by Neptune: It’s fun. I don’t really think this one is that deep. lol
