★Flash
Flash wakes quietly, eyes blinking open to see a dark expanse of a desert, and she has a blissful few moments of tranquility before her dreams come rushing back.
Her cheeks flush when she turns to Ghost, there was no way he could tell what her dreams had been about, but the thought of him somehow seeing the rated R images her mind conjured up horrifies her. Being so busy at the academy, even with her own room, leaving little time to indulge in more carnal desires. It had been years since Flash had even kissed someone, meaning it took an embarrassingly small amount of action to light the candle nestled between her thighs. In her defense, Ghost wasn’t much better, when he had stood between her knees that first night, Flash could see the way his hands shook with nerves and the uneven rise and fall of his chest. If it hadn’t been for his tense posture when leaving the bathroom, she would have guessed he’d, well, relieved himself. The thought of him getting off to her has Flash pressing her thighs together in embarrassment. Jesus, she needed to get her shit together.
Once she’s collected her thoughts enough to focus on their surroundings, Flash notices the music is playing again, this time at a lower volume. She smiles softly at the image of him turning on her music and flipping through the songs.
“Do you like the music?” She murmurs, stifling a yawn with her hand. Ghost turns quickly to look at her, he must’ve not noticed her earlier fidgeting. He clears his throat before answering. Flash finds his embarrassment endearing.
“I’m usually too busy to think about listening to music,” He drums his fingers against the wheel once before continuing. His voice is softer this time, “Yes I’m enjoying it.”
Flash feels her smile grow at his admittance, giddy at the idea of him opening up, to her no less. She wants to press, to ask him about his favorite genre, if he has one, or if he’s ever listened to ABBA (a personal favorite of hers). But she schools her excitement, knowing pushing would get her nothing. She chooses a safer response.
“I’m glad.” She resists the urge to reach out and touch him, fingers itching to peel the mask up over the cut on his chin and patch it up herself, the blood has soaked through the dark material and wound a path down his neck. She instead settles on resting her head against the seat to watch him as he drives, doing her best to ignore his exposed forearms and the way they flex whenever he makes a turn.
“Me too.” This new side of Ghost has Flash melting into her seat, the gruff man that was shoving her to the side just the day before was peacefully sitting next to her listening to Fleetwood Mac. Oh, the wonders of the world.
_____
Even in the dark, Flash is still able to see the rough outline of the compound. The area is dimly lit with small orange lights glowing around the perimeter of the concrete building, giving it an almost halo effect. It’s a lot smaller than she was expecting, dwarfed by the staggering height of the academy, the compound and its attached airport were pitiful.
When Ghost stops the van in front of the building he’s quick to step out and start towards the compound, leaving Flash scrambling to collect her things and jog after him.
“What’s with the rush big guy?” She says, feeling more at ease after their less than life changing conversation.
“I have things I need to do.” His tone is short and as soon as he finishes, Flash realizes that the sort of comradery that they had going in the van was no longer an option, her smile falters a bit, but she doesn’t let it ruin her entire mood.
While they were still in their friendship arc, Ghost had told her about Gaz. He’d mentioned that they might get along well, as long as she didn’t take his title. It took her a few minutes of pestering and promising to be silent for the rest of the ride to get Ghost to admit that Gaz is the proclaimed baby of the group. Supposedly, Price let him have first dibs on seconds. She made a bet that she’d have his spot in less than three days, and she was ready to get her 20 dollars.
Ghost holds the door open for her and watches as she thumps through the small space with her bag. When she turns to thank him, he’s already made it halfway down a hallway to their left. Flash huffs a breath in his direction and turns back to survey the large room in front of her. It's cozier than she was expecting. Although the room is made entirely of concrete, a handful of mismatched rugs make it feel less industrial. To her right, opposite the hallway of doors, is a small kitchen, separated from the rest of the room with a curved counter space. It has a small stove, fridge, and a table that looks like it's been taken out of an REI magazine with its bench seats. Further into the space, there’s a cobbled together living room, two worn armchairs facing a hideous orange loveseat.
There's three men there now, watching a black and white film on the small tv perched atop a rickety wardrobe. All three turn to look at Flash when the door closes loudly behind her. She gives them a sheepish smile.
“Hi?”
“Flash!” Soap jumps over the arm of the loveseat and walks towards her. “I thought we agreed Ghost was going to leave you with the cargo.” He teases.
When he gets close enough, Flash shoves his shoulder.
“And I here I thought I’d finally found my team.” She retorts and relishes in the pinch of his brow. He opens his mouth but a hand clamps down on his shoulder before he can speak. Vargas, or Alejandro as Ghost had called him in the van, steps around Soap to smile at Flash.
“If it isn’t our little Protector de Fantasmas.” He says slyly.
It takes Flash a moment but when she’s able to decipher what he said her body stiffens.
“Relax Rubia, word spreads fast around here.” Alejandro leans against Soap’s shoulder with an elbow, much to his annoyance. “He told me you had two of his men down before Ghost had recovered. That’s some impressive work.”
“I didn’t end up here by getting lucky.” She says and immediately regrets it. Flash is so used to defending her position that she doesn’t even recognize his words as a compliment, but from the earnest look on his face, she can tell he means it.
“Luck has nothing to do with it.” He says with a half smile and Flash returns it in full, hoping it would smooth over her harsh comment.
Soap clears his throat and shoves Alejandro’s arm off his shoulder, supposedly done with their conversation. He turns away from her to gesture at the third man who is hovering a few feet away from the group.
“Flash, this is Gaz.”
He’s younger than she expected, and cuter too. He looks like a cover model for an airport magazine, bronzed skin and perfectly straight teeth that make her flush when he smiles. A classic case of too handsome to be human. She wants to ask him what position he played on his high school rugby team but decides against it at the last minute. First impressions are important.
“Hi.” She says and sticks a hand out, kicking herself for being so formal.
He takes her hand but instead of shaking it, he pulls her into a hug, clapping her on the back a few times. Flash is so close she can smell the remnants of his cologne, she can’t quite place it, but it brings her back to the Hollister across from her favorite smoothie shop.
When he releases her, the bag hanging from her hand weighs a few more pounds, and her cheeks burn a bit hotter.
“Welcome to the team Flash.” Gaz bumps against Soap’s shoulder a bit rougher than necessary. “I’m excited to have someone to talk to from this century.”
Soap shoves him back and gives him a pointed glare,
“What the fuck do ya’ mean?”
“I mean,” Gaz gets out between his laughter, “I don’t always want to hear about your suffering during the potato famine.”
Flash laughs loudly at this, once again basking in Soap's wounded expression. Maybe she would have to become allies with Gaz instead. Alejandro shakes his head at them before interrupting their squabble.
“I’m heading out if this is what our conversations have divulged.” He grabs his things from the endearingly rustic table and salutes Flash. “See you soon Rubia.”
She salutes back and ignores Soap and Gaz’s offended looks, watching Alejandro leave through the same door she and Ghost had entered through.
“Let me show you to your room,” Gaz says, apparently done with his pestering, and Flash realizes halfway through a yawn, how tired she is.
“That would be amazing.” She says with a sleepy smile.
Gaz leads her and a moping Soap down the same hallway Ghost had disappeared through and stops in front of the second to the last door.
“This will be your room for now,” He gestures to the solid oak door and grimaces before continuing, “The building was not built with the expectation of women so the bathroom is shared between two rooms. I’m sure you and Ghost can figure out a system.”
Flash’s eyes widen at his words. She’d be sharing a bathroom with Ghost? Jesus have mercy on her poor soul.
“Ghost? You mean I can’t share with you? Or Price?” Gaz seems to catch onto her panic and lets out a barking laugh.
“No sadly I have to share a bathroom with this pig of a man,” He says and kicks Soap in the foot. She almost feels bad for him. Almost. “And Price got the only room with an attached bathroom.”
Flash curses and takes a steeling breath. This is far from the worst thing she’s endured. But the idea of sharing such an intimate space with such a private person has her heart racing.
“I’m sure it won't be much different from your dorms.” Soap says and Flash can’t believe she’s gotten both pity and reassurance from the two. She really must have drawn the short straw.
“I had my own rooms at the academy.” She grumbles and both men look at her in disbelief so she awkwardly pieces together an explanation, “When you’re young and better than a lot of men, they like to find ways to keep their ego inflated. Nothing too bad ever happened. It was more of a precaution.”
Flash feels awkward opening up to two people she’s known less than a week, but it gives her a sense of relief to finally tell someone. Soap gives her a sad smile and Gaz rests a warm hand on her shoulder.
“You won't have to worry about that here then. Go in and get settled, we already ate but you’re free to have whatever’s in the fridge.” Gaz gives her another one of his dazzling smiles and turns to leave with Soap.
Flash is quick to shut herself in the room, already blinking back tears. So this is what they meant when the other recruits talked about finding a family. All of her years of training suddenly feel worth it.
She bites her tongue as another wave of emotion rolls over at the sight of her room. It actually looks like a bedroom. A large bed takes up most of the space, framed by two small nightstands, and a plain oak wardrobe rests against the far wall next to a full mirror. It's simple, but the warm light spilling from the bedside lamp ties the room together with a gold bow.
What she see’s next though, has her heart leaping into her throat. Her iPod has been set on the nightstand, next to the carefully wrapped shape of her headphones that she’d so carelessly left in the van. He’d been in here?
Flash sets her bag on the bed before walking carefully through the door to her left, not wanting to risk a creaking board under the carpet. They definitely didn’t hold back this time. A long counter with two porcelain sinks stretches the distance of the bathroom, across from it, there’s not only a standing shower but a large clawfoot bathtub. It's been years since Flash has taken a real bath and she nearly caves at the sight of it. The door at the far side of the room keeps her focused. Still stepping lightly, she stops right in front of the door and raises her fist to knock against it. She hesitates at first, her fist only gliding across the wood surface before she’s knocking harder.
There’s no answer at first, but when she knocks again she hears a muffled come in. Flash falters for a moment, she hadn’t prepared for him to actually answer. She takes a deep breath and turns the handle, pushing the door open.
The breath she’d taken is immediately knocked from her chest when she sees Ghost writing at a desk. He’s dressed down to a tight black shirt and a pair of jeans, an outfit that despite its conservativeness, has Flash feeling like she needs to cover her eyes. The balaclava is crooked at his neck, obviously hastily put on, and the thought of him sitting just a room away without it makes her stomach flip.
“Can I help you?” His rough voice has whatever sad excuse Flash had for interrupting him flying out of her head. She recovers quickly though.
“I wanted to thank you for bringing my things in.” She says quietly and he just shrugs, not looking up from his journal.
Flash hovers for a second, looking around his room in hopes to find another conversation starter. Ghost’s room is nearly identical to hers, sans desk. His bed is rumpled but the rest of his room is in near perfect condition. When her eyes land on the small stack of books on his wardrobe she sees her opportunity.
“Could I borrow a book?” He does look up at this, wordlessly glancing between her and the stack. “I forgot my charger and I have a hard time falling asleep without my music. Maybe if I read I can bore myself to sleep, not that you’re books are boring! I just mean it might be relaxing.” She knows she’s rambling but she’s to distracted by the tilt of his head to care.
“Go ahead.” He says, waving a careless hand toward them and returning to his task
Flash quickly walks to the stack, grabs the first one, and retreats back to the doorway. It’s clear that he’s waiting for her to leave, but she can’t bring herself to shut the door behind her.
“How does your chin feel? That guy hit you pretty hard.” She says hesitantly.
“I cleaned it.” Ghost huffs in an uninterested tone.
“Are you sure? It looked bad from where I was sitting.”
There are a few seconds of silence and during them, Flash watches Ghost relax a bit further into the wooden chair.
“I’m fine Flash” His voice is softer now, and when he says her name, a warm shiver runs up her spine.
“Okay then, well, goodnight?” It comes out as more of a question and she kicks herself for being so easily affected. He doesn’t respond right away and she’s about to close the door when he finally speaks up,
“Goodnight.” She almost misses it, but when she hears his quiet reply she practically slams the door shut, running through the bathroom and throwing herself onto the bed.
It takes a tremendous amount of strength to peel herself from the covers to clean up in the bathroom and it takes even more to not look at every product he has next to the sink and in the shower.
When she's finally settled, old western novel in hand, she doesn't even make it through the first page before nodding off.
______
Their little dance goes on like this for the next two weeks. Despite her constant protesting, Flash is left at the compound to train with Price while Soap, Gaz, and Ghost run through several small busts. None of them memorable enough to recount when she comes barreling into his room upon his return. Her presence has become more bearable. After seeing their team's appointed psychiatrist, he’d been put on a heavier dose of anxiety medication. When Price found out, he insisted that Ghost also make a point to talk to the doctor about his problems. Claiming that their team needed him at his strongest. That's where he is today. Sitting in the conference room, now a makeshift therapy room.
Comforted by the notion of doctor-patient confidentiality, Ghost lets the hard set of his shoulders relax against the green armchair of the psychiatrists office. Opposite of him sitting at a large oak desk, Dr. Marks, a balding eccentric psychiatrist who he’d been becoming more familiar with over the last two weeks. The doctor sighs as he flips through the various medical records in Ghost’s file before closing it entirely and shoving it to the side of his desk.
“And you said that your only side effect has been trouble falling asleep?” He didn’t want to admit it, but the pills have been helping. He’s only taken them a handful of times since having the dosage upped, but they did their job a bit too well. With a clearer mind, Ghost is able to identify his source of panic much quicker, but that also meant that nights spent alone were filled with images that he simultaneously craved and loathed. That had been their topic of conversation this past week, Ghost’s unflinching desire for domestic life.
“Yes.” Ghost mutters.
“I can prescribe you a light sedative, nothing too strong, and in a small amount. You can refill it as you run out.” Dr. Marks leans back in his rather antique looking leather chair and rubs a hand against the silver scruff on his jaw, giving him that same sad smile. “I’m sure you can understand why.”
Ghost gives him a curt nod, not wanting to open up more room for discussion on the subject.
The doctor seems to pick up on it and swiftly changes the topic, already used to Ghost’s aversions to that certain page in his file.
“Have you thought any more about what I told you last session?” Dr. Marks asks softly.
“I’ve thought about it, yes.” Ghost says, avoiding eye contact by picking at the rough linen fabric of his own armchair.
“And?”
“It’s not going to happen.”
When Ghost looks up he can see the pity in the doctor's eyes. It’s seemingly the only way people know how to look at him like he's something that’s needing coddling. Except for her, and that’s his problem.
“There is still an opportunity for happiness, it’s in there Simon. When you’re ready to bear it, it will find its way back to you.”
“How can it find me if I can’t even find myself.” Ghost sags further into the cushion of the armchair, choosing to observe the dark wood grain of the desk rather than the eyes staring straight through him. He already regrets opening his mouth.
“You’re a lot closer to finding yourself than you think. Sometimes we need assistance though, and that’s okay.”
Ghost huffs a quiet laugh at his words and stands, ready to be out of the suddenly stifling atmosphere. Dr. Marks stands with him, reaching a hand across the table. When Ghost takes it, rather than shaking them, the doctor rests his other hand on top and gives their clasping hands a gentle squeeze.
“You’re still young. Don’t let your past control your future, it can be suffocating but you’re stronger than you think.” Dr. Marks gives him a kinder look now, one that has Ghost’s throat tightening. He needs to get out.
“Thank you.”
“Of course. I’ll let you know when the prescription comes in, I don’t have a small enough dose I can give you now but it shouldn’t be too long.” It’s again followed by the same ‘I feel guilty but don’t know what to say' look that he dreads so much.
Ghost gives him another nod and covers the space between his chair and the door in just a few strides, opening and closing it quickly without looking back.
Before he even reaches the doorway he can hear her laugh. A bright sound that warms his chest and leaves him a bit breathless. When he does walk into the room he sees Flash, Soap, and Gaz sitting around the kitchen table arguing over a card game. From the looks of it, Soap is losing, he’s slumped back against the wall glaring daggers at Gaz while drawing cards from the main deck.
Ghost turns to look at Price who is sitting in one of the two armchairs facing the kitchen, watching the three with a smile on his face. He strides over and takes the chair next to him.
“How’d it go?” Price’s eyes don’t leave the group.
“Better. I’m getting something to help with my sleep.” He says with a sigh.
Price does turn to look at him now, brows furrowing.
“We won’t have any problems will we?” Ghost feels the burn of shame on his cheeks.
“No. Small doses.”
“Good.”
They go silent after that. Both turn to focus back on the rowdy group. Ghost finds himself zoning in on Flash. Her laughter has turned the apples of her cheeks a rosy pink and even from across the room he can see the way her eyes shine. That same tingling tightness that has plagued Ghost for the past week returns at the sight, squeezing the breath out of his lungs in a warm embrace.
“She’s a sweet one that girl.” Price says, gesturing towards Flash with the bottle in his hand. “It makes me worry.”
Gaz, taking advantage of Soap’s bathroom break, has started slipping cards into his hand left on the table. Flash is bent at the waist laughing, wiping away tears, and begging Gaz to stop before he returns.
“I wouldn’t.” Ghost says distractedly. Price raises an eyebrow at him.
“You would know?” Price’s gaze softens as he takes in Ghost watching her. “You’ve taken a liking to her then?”
Ghost stiffens at his words but doesn’t bother arguing, Price is the only one he doesn’t bother lying to. He’s able to see through Ghost’s rough exterior wall too easily.
“You know I can’t.” Ghost's voice is a near whisper.
“It’s not against code, young as she is she’s just as much of a Lieutenant as you are.” Price says softly. Ghost turns to look at him, missing Soap’s boisterous reaction to his now deck of a hand.
“We both know it’s not that.” He mutters.
“You can’t shut everyone out forever Ghost.” Price says before taking a sip out of his bottle.
Ghost is about to tell Price that he absolutely can when a voice shouts across the room for him,
“C’mon Ghost! Come play with us!” Flash yells while beaming in his direction and Ghost feels his knees weaken at her excitement over him playing a game, it was usually quite the opposite. He couldn’t count the number of times he’d sat and listened to Soap and Gaz complain about having to be on his team. It was never done on purpose, but it still struck that small chord that rested at the base of his skull. The one that was currently urging him to take the seat next to Flash and forget about the warning sirens going off in every other part of his brain.
“I’m heading off to bed.” He says instead, knowing nothing good would come of it. Flash frowns at him for a moment but then shrugs her shoulders. He stands from the chair and starts towards the hallway of rooms.
“Awe well I’ll just take Soap up on his offer. He said we could go,” Flash scrunches her nose and turns a questioning gaze to Soap, ”what did you say?”
Soap looks at Ghost with a devilish smirk and even though he’s speaking to Flash, Soap keeps his eyes locked with Ghosts.
“I said we could go practice her poker with Alejandro’s boys.” Soap says simply. Ghost freezes and all earlier hesitation evaporates.
“How do you play the game?”

RAAAWR HUG! HUG! qiapyon loves being hugged :3 and squished (is a slime so squish!) hehe you are so nice and soft :>> not at all intimidating
YOU FELT LIKE A BIG BLOG just so very top tier writing. great graphic. whole package deal. there's only two possibilities that happen to follower count when you go ia:
it goes up, because people are finding you
it goes down, because people are not finding you and your followers think you are dead
THE RETURN OF NYA im so excited rawrrrrr tag me in everything
afadsfhsd me big blog... i guess i'm a big blog. i dont know why 1.1k people are still here for my shitposts
ajdslfsdf its only a few,,, a lot of my blogs are ia..... unfortunately.... and i mostly have focused on nazukisser though i literally cant stop writing for enstars its in my soul... i always strive for weekly for every fandom but darn thats really hard with the amount of shit i have going on
WAAAAAAAA i hope YOUR works get the true recognition it deserves (one day you'll write a leo fic that will become known as that leo fic (in a pos sense))
professional.... ate lis told me that i looked professional on my blogs,,, i just try. lots of trial and error and i always try to look fresh. have gone through so many phases its insane. one time i tried replicating an actual site design on tumblr while combining it w my style and it was so hard. stares at my (long gone) tori fs2 theme
RIGHT like the readers were nice, all of the people were so nice... now its too big like who is everyone... but also its kinda dead too like damn... 2023 is not anybody's year... i wish we could return to all being silly....
help me omg big blog. i mean being a writing blog the writing might as well get a pass but the graphics suck and i'm the first one to acknowledge that. i simply don't know what to do with them >< the one and only graphic i'm still head over heels for and is the reason i still haven't remade my theme is the cute cat soren did for me a looong time ago and is my current banner. it's. so. round. so cute. silly but sosososo adorable
i mean my followers have probably accepted i'm a sporadic writer and i don't really have a schedule. it hurts when you try to put out your stuff but it doesn't get attention but aaa this is the internet. there's no point in overthinking that. my one and only concern is that anons that rq something i answer a few months later manage to read their rq :(
JESUS CHRIST QIAN YOU HAVE 1.1K FOLLOWERS?!?!? big big biggest writer indeed. i just checked mine and it's 744 followers which is an insane number for someone who posts so little!! what you said about the leo fic... i can only hope. i personally think i suck at writing leo a lot. and rei. and natsume. my izumi is pretty much a mess too. see? if i love them i can't write them right. but uuuu i'd love to write a series. i've never tried that. i also considered something like a social media au bc that's usually really cute too. i don't think any of my works will ever reach that level of importance buuuuut. i'd love that
i've been working a bit on some sort of new theme for my super due revamp but i hate editing sooo much. whatever you say your themes always look super nice and cohesive <3 they're really nice to look at ;;
the fandom being big and dead (from a writing pov) is just as you said ;; i occasionally go into the tags to look for cute fanart but i don't see any writing and it's very sad. sorry to whoever might be offended by this but x readers actually carried the fandom before engstars. but we all either grew frustrated with the lack of interaction or found new interests
i simply miss that sense of community TT the nuri era... nuri feeding the entire fandom one post a day. bee coming up with the absolute prettiest things (like hello THEIR PROMPTS. i still haven't recovered from those). swanee dropping these insanely talented bombs and leaving us knocking on their askbox like "pls comeback when". soren's blog (which i actually visit from time to time bc there's a handful of fics that carry half of my mental sanity rn). runa ;;;;
see? i miss a lot of people ꒰⁎′̥̥̥ ⌑ ‵̥̥̥ ꒱ on those are only the ones that came first into mind because there are even more moots i miss... that comfy feeling of being able to jump into everyone's askbox and be silly... nostalgia hitting hard ;;; makes me think i should try to join a server(s) to try and interact with people again, even if it's just some talking from time to time

anti-ships with my mutuals
Tumblr media
there’s this fun trend going around where people will tag their mutuals and ship them with a character from hq/bnha and as sweet as it is, i decided to put a twist on it. i want to pair my mutuals with a hq boy (maybe bnha later if any of my mutuals wanna have one)that would be the most toxic combination/not mesh well with.
 this is all in good fun so dont come for me and if i tag you, don’t be shy, i wanna know who you think you wouldn’t mesh well with as well as your own mutuals ( im self centered so this is an invitation to do one for me whether it’s a real ship or a anti-ship ) 
Tumblr media
@icejins & oikawa
 it pains me to write this cause the energy you two would have together could take down the whole world. you both are two confident baddies who know they’re cute but after a while, it would lowkey start to feel like you’re competing over things and one upping each other instead of supporting the other person. god, he’d give you the worst advice over things and if he tries to rant to you, i think your bluntness will just make him feel like you’re trying to be mean (hes the type where he needs to have things a bit sugarcoated sometimes) i don’t think ur the type to just be patient and willingly let volleyball be a priority over you like HUH? SOMETHING IS MORE IMPORTANT THAT ME? TF IS THIS BULLSHIT - and i don’t mean you’re priority #2 like i think you’d fall around 4 maybe 5 like jeez thanks. i think you would say it doesn’t bother you but what’s the point in being in a relationship when he hardly makes time for you and it’s clear to him and you that volleyball will always be his first love. you have your own shit to do and focus on, imagine you don’t show up to one of his games and he makes you feel bad (what if you don’t feel bad? he’d be so hurt)  you’re pretty as hell and he’d just make you feel like arm candy - does he even know your favorite song? what makes you upset? hell, ask him what color your eyes are and this fool will have a stroke trying to remember. i also envision you two to be the type where if he pisses you off and you give him the silent treatment, he’s not gonna put his pride aside and apologize to you first and you’re stubborn in your ways so you’re not gonna give and it’ll go downhill from there. PLUS two bad knees doesn’t equal one good relationship, yall are already off on the wrong foot ha. if i can be even more honest, your ideal relationship with oikawa is like him being an older sibling where you both can check each other on yalls shit while still caring about one another. 
@kirislut & terushima 
look, this was hard cause ill ship you with anyone and it fits but terushima? you’re not into jerky guys, especially the ones who don’t take no for an answer. in all honesty, i dont even see how you two would ever start dating. he’s cute and you’ll give him that and sure, you love confident guys but there’s something about terushima that is cocky yet so unmotivating at the same time. you have your dreams and ambitions but he doesn’t really have a plan. it’s okay to not know what you want to do but you need someone who is motivated with goals and terushima could care less about the future, he lives in the now. you make him insecure - you’re accomplishing so much and instead of feeling like he’s dragging you down, he feels like you’re purposefully trying to leave him behind to rub it in his face. also again, we don’t know too much about terushima except that he’s a very spontaneous guy with a tongue piercing (jesus ur parents would have a field day with him). 
@goopyartiste & tsukishima
oh god this feels like an emotionally abusive relationship- you’re very sensitive, this isn’t news to anyone who knows you. tsuki is kinda a jerk and as much as i loved his character development, it doesn’t stray from the fact that he isn’t an emotionally available person- at least not enough to date you specifically. if you had a bad day and he doesn’t give you the amount of attention or doesn’t give helpful advice, you would take it to heart and 9/10 times would cause a tsunami of tears. and again, these aren’t necessarily bad traits but in a relationship if you’re clingy with him, he’s going to respond negatively- his relationship with yamaguchi would be the exact way he would treat you so you can’t expect special attention. he’ll introduce you as his friend and you’d be too shy to correct him - it feels like the whole relationship will just be you apologizing for tsuki’s words and actions to others and as much as i love you, you wouldn’t have a strong enough voice against him and his “jerkish” tendencies. HES LIKE IF YOU DATED UR PARENTS DFGHJK IM SORRY BUT THEY’RE SO MEAN! you need someone who would be emotionally/physically available for you 24/7 and someone who isn’t afraid to truly love you. get out while you can girl, go! for your mental sanity please. 
@shoutamajiki & bokuto
 i dont think this combo would be toxic but its REALLY hard for me to picture this in my head??? i know you can be silly sometimes nana but you’re pretty serious and your paths in life are just so different. hes so extroverted and you like to be a lil more reserved so someone is bound to be out of their comfort zone. you can be very patient with people but i think it would be tiring to date bokuto knowing you would have to be the emotionally stable one between the two of you. he’s so sweet and he’s genuinely a good person but you need a partner where they aren’t so dependent on you- someone who it’s okay if you guys don’t talk all day and then when you two do see each other, you just pick up where you left off. you’re not one to be tied down and be available 24/7 and he needs someone who he can feel secure with without feeling insecure himself. so this one again isn’t toxic but i cant imagine yall kissing or anything so dont come for me

anyway my like last/second to last reblog made me think about this so caesar crusader au woot woot also it got kinda long so here’s a cut for those who dont wanna scroll through all that <3 also i didnt proofread so sorry i just dont care enough </3
first things first let me get the set up;; caesar joseph nd suzi all live in the same house u can interpret it as ot3 or just caejose and suzi is there to vibe w them and help joseph convince caesar to get into trouble, it’s however u want it
then either cause ot3 or suzi agrees 2 be a surrogate, holly is born, joseph’s still the dad like genetically but she’s raised by all three of em essentially and still ends up just as bubbly as she is in canon, except there is no absolute fuckign way she doesnt know hamon because caesar would never, and i mean NEVER, let his kid grow up w/o such a useful trick up her sleeve
then holly gets married, joseph embarrasses both suzi and caesar by how hostile he is towards sadao, caesar is more likely to cuff him over the head bc of it, so there’s that. doesnt change much ig but makes joseph thinks a LITTLE bit more before lashing out JKF;JFJ;S
jotaro comes along and he is caesar’s BOY ok. caesar just gets him. his quiet and calm demeanor (ik caesar isnt necessarily like that in general but around kids he is and as he gets older he’d give off that vibe more as he mellows out) made jotaro feel rlly relaxed around him and as a result he’s v open to him. joseph and suzi ofc have a relationship w jotaro as well but it isnt hard to see there is a bit of favorites playing, especially once jotaro grows up and really starts closing off to most ppl
caesar tries to encourage him to open up more to his family again, but this just ends up with him getting cut off as well. it’s sad ):
in the meantime tho joseph meets avdol and develops his stand. with avdol and caesar combined, they can kinda wrangle joseph into being productive w his energy, but theyre not full-proof. nothing will ever be full-proof against joseph
caesar nd avdol would get along rlly well me thinks. caesar would teach him sum italian and avdol would teach him so arabic. caesar wouldnt have a stand, but since stands r kiiiiinda described as just more intense versions of hamon, caesar can see like outlines of stands if he’s looking at them through one of his hamon bubbles. he only figures this out w avdol’s help. theyre buds
then they find out abt dio thanks to joseph’s stand and they all kinda. get srs. it’s time to search and all that for this fucker. caesar’s pissed cause his grandfather died for no reason now then, same w joseph. avdol helps them navigate the stand world as they search
honestly all is relatively well mostly but then. sdc begins
caesar hasnt heard from jotaro himself for like two years when holly calls them in a panic over him being in jail. og just caesar and joseph were gonna go, but then avdol brings up jotaro mightve developed his stand, since stands r kinda genetic, so they bring avdol along too cause he’s the expert here
they get there, jotaro calls his mom a bitch and is otherwise disrespectful and moody as fuck, and caesar is frankly just disappointed more than angry/frustrated, th opposite of joseph. this makes jotaro feel worse tho KJFN;;N
avdol gets him out tho, they head out. caesar scolds jotaro for snapping at holly and joseph when the only things they ever did were show care for him, and jotaro snaps at HIM in return. fuckin teenagers. caesar changes tactics then and tells jotaro about how he used to be a street thug and all that, and how he cut himself off from his family in an effort to keep them safe (as did his dad mario zeppeli and joseph’s mom djkndje;dn why do bad coping skills run in the family), but it didnt work and instead it just put them in more danger and unjustified/meaningless emotional turmoil. jotaro gets thoughtful over this
then jotaro heads to school and accepts his kiss from holly w/o much fight, just wordless grumbling. it’s a start, caesar guesses
then jotaro comes home with a fucking bloody body only an hour later BHILDFHUDHUJN;
avdol talks abt the fleshbud, caesar is concerned cause jesus h christ, that is a child, kakyoin was only 16-almost-17 when he got fleshbudded, it’s been months, holy shit ??? jotaro must have the same thoughts cause he goes to pull the fleshbud out to everyone’s panic
they decide to let jotaro do it tho and jotaro does, just like in canon. kakyoin’s still rlly rattled but w caesar nd holly both telling him it’s ok and jotaro’s weird ass “why did i save you? who knows.........” thing, he calms down
then holly gets stand sickness and everyone freaks out, even jotaro! kinda. he reacts much the same he did in canon except maybe a lil more frantic cause he had literally JUST decided to clean up his act and now his mom is dying. he wants to show her he knows better now. it’s rough.
caesar considers staying just to watch over his daughter esp cause he doesnt have a stand so it’s like, what would he even do, but then jotaro and kakyoin say theyre going and caesar is like “ok no. ur children.” “that’s my mom. im going either by myself or youll let me go with you.” “christ”
so caesar tags along just to keep an eye of these crazy kids and yeah
this is ending up as a whole fucking fic draft or some shit so im gonna stop here but if anyone is curious on my thoughts on how caesar would continue to affect things from here, lemme know nd ill elaborate. im PRETTY SURE...caesar being around would lead to avdol and kakyoin living cause hamon’s healing abilities, nd since he doesnt have a stand he kinda just ends up as team medic SOOOO....
anyway thanks for reading all thsi if u did JKD;JN;

Cop!Bucky X Reader
In which your best friend, Maria Rambeau goes into labour on your couch and the freeway has other plans to get you to the hospital
Warnings: Swearing, Traffic, labouring mother, fluff, cop!beefy!bucky, im suffering from intense baby fever this is pretty self indulgent, GREYS ANATOMY SPOILERS
Words: 3.5K
@nomadsgrogers i tagged you now you have to name yours and seb’s first daughter after me
Your knuckles were white with the grip you had on the steering wheels of your Jeep, the engine purring louder as you pressed your sneakered foot harder on the gas and passed several cars very illegally. You could feel the sweat beading at your temples and you heart pounding in your ears, blood rushing to them in a roar not loud enough to block out the screaming from your passenger side seat. 
Maria Rambeau had come over to your house earlier that day— something not uncommon from one of your best friends, and you greeted her with a hug and a kiss on the cheek and a whispered hello to her swollen stomach. You, Maria and Carol, had served in the Airforce in your late teens and early twenties both you and Maria had left to pursue goals which were just a little closer to Earth. She had curled up on your couch, barely hiding her discomfort as you handed her an iced tea— made just the way she liked. She had just been about to lift the glass to her lips when there was a sound of rushing water and she doubled over, pain electrocuting her body so deep it felt like the marrow in her bones was frying. 
You had immediately busted into action, quelling your tears of fear as you sprinted to your room for a change of clothes that may fit the very pregnant and soaked woman on your couch while yelling at her to time the spaces between her contractions. 
So, you were in the jeep now, racing down the freeway and drumming your fingers over the steering wheel, shushing Maria as she tried once again to apologize for ruining your couch. 
“Maria if you apologize once more I’m going to steal the birth certificate and change the name to dark roast coffee. Stop, I can get a new couch.” You bit, clenching your jaw as you swept back into the lane you were supposed to be. You thought you saw a flash of a middle finger but you genuinely couldn’t care less as the screaming woman in your car took precedence over all else. 
“Did you call Carol, yet?” You asked, trying to attempt to take your friends mind off the pain rocketing through her body. 
“Yeah, when you were in the bedroom. I think she screamed and swore and I’m pretty sure she said she was on her way to Brooklyn General. You know how she gets when she’s excited.” Maria smiled tiredly as the pressure lifted from her stomach. She sat back and patted the swell of her belly and looked down at it fondly. “You better calm down in there, soldier. Mama needs to get to the hospital before you meet her.”
“Yeah, and I already gotta get my couch replaced, I can’t afford to get the bloodstains out of the car.” You joked, winking over to Maria. 
“I’m sorry!” She cried, laughing before gasping as the felt another contraction build in her stomach. Instead of replying you just laughed and pressed your foot harder to the gas. 
___________________________
It was another five minutes of speeding down the highway when you merged onto the freeway and found yourself at your first problem. 
“Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god this is not normal!” Maria pressed her forehead against the dash and you looked over worriedly before placing your hand on her back and rubbing it in soothing circular motions. 
“I’m pretty sure it is.” You hummed, noticing the there were a lot of red tail lights ahead and slowed down the jeep, flinching when you heard a low moan erupt from somewhere in Maria’s throat. 
“Shut up yes it is.” She growled, biting her forearm to stifle her keens of pain. There was a moment of silence before the contraction passed and she looked over at you, eyes tired and regretful “Sorry for saying that.”
“Stop apologizing. You’re literally in labour. You could say anything and I wouldn’t be offended.” You hummed, brows furrowing as you tried to see if you could fit in the space between the cars and the blockade to see if you could bypass the traffic. 
Nope. 
“No, no, no. What is this traffic, are you kidding me?” Maria cried when she looked up. You pressed your lips together and pulled over as far to the side as possible. You clicked the seatbelt and looked at Maria very seriously. 
“Do. Not. Leave. This car.” You said, pointing your finger in her face. Maria looked like she would like nothing more than to bite it clean off. Instead of giving your best friend the satisfaction, you opened the door and stepped out of the car. 
“Y/N. Bitch! Where the fuck are you— OWWWW!” She keened and you hesitated to leave her alone. Instead of doing so, you kicked on a car door beside you and alerted the car of young adults to your presence. The driver smiled politely and turned down the music before rolling down the window and smiling. 
“What’s up, Miss?” He was cute. Young, innocent, perfect for guarding a labouring soon-to-be mother. 
“Y/N. Call me Y/N, please.” You dug in your bag and pulled out your wallet, giving them each as much cash as you could before asking them; “Would you mind watching my very best, labouring friend while I go and see if I can get us a ride to the hospital, please?” You begged. His eyes widened and he looked at his round friend and beautiful, but very nerdy friend before stuttering out an affirmation. 
“Great, her name is Maria. I’ll be back in five minutes.” You rushed before beginning the short jog up to the front of the jam. There were a few police cars guarding the wreckage and you winced at the sight of crushed metal before running to the nearest cop car and leaning forward to rest your hand on your need and catching your breath. 
“Ma’am, are you okay?” A grumbly voice sounded above you and you shot up, hands on your back and a tired smile on your face. All was very well until your eyes landed on his beautiful, gorgeous, almost offensive face. His hair was hidden with a combination of black police hat and bun, a light sprinkling of scruff on his strong jaw and crooked nose between two very intense eyes. There was a gap in his eyebrow due to a scar and his rough appearance had your knees weak. 
“I— um. Yeah. I’m fine. How— how are you?” You tried to smirk and lean against the cruiser, remembering why you were there before straightening up. 
“I’m fine?” He replied, a smirk on his face and eyes thoroughly amused. Sure, he had been flirted with on the job before, but not in this situation and most certainly not by someone who took his very breath away. “What can I help you with?”
Right. 
“I— I have a friend back there and she is trying to stop herself from pushing a watermelon-sized human out of a space which is not watermelon sized.” You blushed as if you were in fifth grade and just hearing about the works of childbirth for the first time again. God, why did the first cop that helped her need to be a walking Adonis? A very, very amused Adonis. No way it was legal to wear a uniform that seemed to be ripping at the seams trying to keep muscles on muscles at bay. 
“Jesus.” He swore, looking around and seeing that all of his coworkers were busy. “I— okay, where is she?” 
_________________________
You and officer James “Bucky” Barnes, as you learned his name was, jogged back t your parked car, all three teenagers had since piled into the jeep and were trying their very best to quell the pain Maria felt shaking her to her very soul. The tiny kid looked as if he was going to explode if Maria squeezed his hand any tighter. At the sight of you, each teenager relaxed into their seats and smiled at you when you pulled open the passenger side door. 
“Hey, soldier.” You smiled, wiping Maria’s curly bangs from her forehead. She looked up slowly, as if in a daze and offered you a weak smile. 
“Did you know these kids are going to graduate top of their class at Midtown?” She hummed, looking back fondly at them. The pain was making her delirious and you blinked stupidly as you heard Maria’s giggles turn into a low moan of pain. 
“Hey, Maria, shhh. You’re okay, you’re safe.” You pulled her head to rest in the crook of her neck and looked back at Officer Barnes who looked a little too pale to be normal. She clutched your sides, pulling your shirt up to dig her nails into the soft skin of your waist, crying low not the safe crook of your neck. He knew right now really wasn’t the best time, but he’d be damned if the sight of your waist covered in long, dark claw marks make some of the blood drain from his brain to his stomach.  
Once the contraction passed, you pulled her chin so she would look at you and you spoke very slowly. The gentleness and care you showed for the people in your life made Bucky’s heart swell and he had to very much remind himself that he was, in fact, at work.
“This if Officer Barnes. He’s going to take us to the hospital, okay?” You hummed, staking her hair and smiling softly when she leaned into your touch. Seeing this side of Maira was rare, but you were living for every minute of it. 
“M’kay.” You took her hand and helped her down from the car, the teens taking the hint and exiting the car, all but the small boy climbing into the old beater. Maria’s knees buckled once she tried to put weight on them, and Bucky acted swiftly, catching her and stopping her into his arms as if she weren’t a heavily pregnant woman, and, at the very most, just a toddler throwing a tantrum. 
Fuck.
The boy walked to stand next to you as Officer Barnes began walking away, in the same state shock as you were right now. 
“He’s like, a real-life Hollywood superhero, huh?” He muttered, patting you on the shoulder. You nodded before turning to him and wrapping your arms around his neck, pulling him into a hug. 
“Thank you for everything you’ve done today. You’re a good kid— whoever raised you did a bang-up job.” You smiled, and he flushed bright red, sheepishly looking down at his feet briefly before pulling his phone from his back pocket. 
“I— would it be okay if I gave you my number? I just— I wanna know what happens.” You blinked before a wide smile spread across your face, handing him your own phone and waiting for him to give it back. When he did you looked at the name and smiled. 
“I’m sure she’d love to see the brave young man that held her hand in the freeway, Peter. I’ll be in touch, okay?”
“Yes, ma’am.”
_______________________
You had all piled into the cop car quickly, Officer Barnes going to inform his Captain that he was going to take two women to the hospital before helping you both into the hard plastic seats of the back. You buckled Maria in as she went through another contraction and nodded at Officer Barnes that he was good to go. 
“You buckle up, too, Doll. Need you safe.” His gaze through the rearview mirror was intense and he didn’t miss the way you flushed pink at the nickname. He bookmarked that one to use again— there was no way he wouldn’t be seeing you after this day. 
The car pulled out, sirens and lights blaring as Bucky pulled out of the middle of the freeway, engine roaring as he sped his way to the hospital bay doors. Maria's contraction subsided and she slimed over to you, grabbing your hand and intertwining your fingers together. 
“You’re a real life genius, you know that? In another life, I’m pretty sure you were a superhero.” You rolled your eyes at her compliment and physical affection, smiling widely and letting your eyes flicker to the rearview mirror, meeting those same blue, intense eyes once more. He seemed to smile at MAria’s comment, agreeing with her. 
“I cannot wait to tell the little baby that this is how she got her way to the hospital.” You laughed, placing your hand on her belly and rubbing. Maria hummed. 
“She’ll be sick of it by the time we tell it at her graduation.” Maria laughed, and you heard Bucky let out an amused huff of air through his nose. 
“And her wedding.”
“And her wedding.” She replied, eyes welling up with tears. “This is really happening, isn’t it?”
“You’re gonna be a mama.” You whispered, a new kind of excitement in your eyes. 
“And you’re gonna be a godmother.” She replied, the same excitement lacing her tone. Bucky’s heart damn well swelled in the front seat at the interaction. There was a pause before Maria jut her chin in the officer's direction. 
“I’m pretty close to revoking Sam’s title as Godfather and giving it to this guy. He’s the real hero of the day.” She smirked, winking at you and wiggling her eyebrows. 
“I don’t think he or Riley would be too happy about that— you know how much they want a little one in their house.” You laughed, nudging her shoulder but keeping her close. 
“Oh, I’m sure they can wait for the next one. I’m pretty sure I’m in a little bit love with this guy.” Maria smiled at the bashful laugh she pulled from the officer. The warm smile and flustered pink on his cheeks making his hard exterior nothing more than a soft teddy bear. Or a street mutt that everyone adores. 
“Me too.” You agreed quietly, winking at the man and blushing when he wiggled his eyebrows. Before you could get caught in your own feelings once more, Maria began rocking back and forth, breathing heavily and clutching your shoulder tightly as another contraction ripped her in half. 
Bucky pressed his foot harder on the gas. 
____________________
The cop car careened into the ER bay, and a very familiar face runs out, worry deep get in his brow at the sight of two of his closest friends in the back of a cop car. Tony Stark meets the car as it stops, opening the door to see Maria Rambeau keening in pain and you with tired, worried eyes. He nods towards the familiar officer and pulls Maria from the car and into a wheelchair. Bruce runs outside at the sight of two familiar faces and immediately starts asking questions. 
“What the hell happened?” He half-shouts, meeting you and looking back at Maria who is now surrounded but the best team of doctors. Helen Cho breaks through the crowd with a smile and a wink and immediately sweeps her up further into the hospital. 
“She came over and went into labour all over my couch and then we got stuck in traffic and I managed to find this Officer to help us.” You rushed, eyes darting anxiously to see if you could see Maria or Carol or anyone at all. Bruce looks back at Officer Barnes and smiles, jutting out a hand for Barnes to shake. 
“Thank you, Officer. Maria is one of our people, and you helping her and Y/N means more than you know.” Bucky blushed and smiled, stepping away and watching as Bruce turned to walk back into his ER. 
“Thank you, for everything, Officer.” You say, voice quiet. The toll of the day has already made your shoulders slouch and your blinks slow, but you know you have so many more hours to go before baby is here. There was no way that you would be missing your Godbaby’s birth. 
“Bucky. Please, it’s Bucky.” He smiled, leaning casually on his car and crossing his arms. You lick your lips at the sight of the bulging muscles, and he subtly flexes at your reaction to him. 
“You tell all the girls to call you Bucky or somethin’?” You joke, swaying up on your tip toes and back down. 
‘Only the pretty ones who care too much about their pregnant friends screaming in my backseat.” He said, his voice low and rumbly and making your core tighten. You flush and your eyes dart around the ambulance bay nervously before settling back on him. 
“I uh— I should go. Make sure her wife is okay, and everything.” You say, voice sad and regretful and you relish in the way his shoulders drop in disappointment. 
“Yeah, you should. I’ll see you around, though okay?” He asks, watching you start to back away to the sliding doors. You smirk. 
“I’ll drive a little bit faster these days then. Maybe you can give me a ticket or somethin’.” You smile and he threw his head back to let out a roaring laugh that echoes against the buildings around you. God, what you would give to drown in that sound. 
“I’ll be lookin’ forward to it, Doll.” His voice is low and you can feel your face heat up under his intense stare and nickname. 
“Me too, Officer.”
_____________________
It’s almost six hours later when Monica Lawson Danvers-Rambeau is brought into the world, Carol on the left side of Maria and you on the right. Monica is six pounds, 9 ounces of pure squealing baby and she is immediately the centre of the group's lives. The first baby to be born in the friend group warrants a few life-altering feelings one would think.  
It’s almost midnight, and you’re curled up in one of the armchairs pressed into the corner by the window, Monica asleep in your arms. Her eyelids flutter with her very first dream and your heart feels like it's going to explode with love when you let one gentle knuckle brush her cheek as light as a feather. You could have stared at her forever, and would have too if it wasn’t for the son knock from the open door only a few feet away. 
Officer Barnes stands there, a grey sweater and dark jeans adorning his body, his hair loose and tucked behind his ears and he has a pair of sunglasses to keep the rest of the strands from falling into his face. There's a large, colourful bouquet of tulips and sunflowers and babies breath in his arms and you nod your head to the table beside the bed holding the sleeping wives. You stand and walk over to him, Monica making a tiny, squeaking noise in your arms before settling back in, nuzzling her face deeper into your chest. Bucky’s heart swells at the sight. 
“How’re you?” He mumbles, eyes never leaving Monica. To think she was inside his car only a few hours ago trying to escape blew his mind. She was so quiet. So peaceful now. 
“I’m the best I’ve been in a long time.” You replied honestly. Life had always given you a rough hand, but this-this made everything worth it. 
“That’s great to hear.” He whispered, leaning against the doorframe. You turn your head to yawn and your eyes look impossibly heavy. 
“This is little Monica. You probably saved her life, you know. You got us here safe and sound. Thank you, Officer Barnes.” You hum, smiling softly, and Bucky can feel his heart rate double in pace. He clenches his jaw nervously before looking at you hopefully. The sight of his puppy dog eyes peeking through his long, dark lashes has your knees weak. 
“What d’you say I wait around for as long as you need and I drive you home. We can stop at some 24-hour diner and get coffee and breakfast— I haven’t eaten in a few hours and I would like to see you some more.”
You sucked in a breath through your nose and let it out of your mouth quickly. God, he really went for the kill, didn’t he? You’d be lying to yourself if you said coffee and a beautiful date didn’t sound like the best thing in the world right now. 
“The nurses are due to check up on us in a few minutes if you want to wait? I don’t wanna just leave them.” You mumble, blushing, nervous gaze softening when you look at the little pink bundle in your arms. 
“She loves you already.” He smiles, gently brushing one long, thick finger over the small tuft of curly hair. She looked so much like her mother. 
You smile up at him— a smile of mischief and confidence. “Well, what’s not to love, huh?”
Buckys eyes flick up to your own and your breath catches at the intensity of his stare. His moist, plump lips are turned into a small smile when he says “I can’t find anything that anyone wouldn’t.”

A Shitty Beach Episode
Fallon stared out at the beach, smiling wide at the people running, sunbathing and swimming out in front of him. “I can feel the sunburn already tinting my pale skin into crispy bacon... god I missed this did you miss this?” Dom was already laying his towel out, taking his shirt off and throwing it to the side before reaching into his bag and pulling out the sunscreen for Fallon. “I haven’t had a day out of the office in a while. I swear i’m turning into a vampire. So... yeah i’m excited to get cured.” Fallon laughed and ripped his shirt off, throwing it with Dom’s junk. The sunscreen was cool and as much of a dork as he looked, he knew that without it he looked like a tomato at the of the day. The bottle brushed against Silas’ thigh as Fallon suggest him to put it on.  Silas only huffed, playing with the t shirt still plastered on his body. “Nah im good man, i’m not gonna take my shirt off anyway.” “What and not show off that bod? You’re gonna drive the ladies crazy man.” “And you’ll get hot.” Dom added, pulling out a book and beginning to read it. “And you’ll get hot.” Silas sat down in the sand, brushing his hair back. “Eh you know. I uh just think I could look better. You know and I didn’t shave today this was a real quick notice.” Dom pipped in again, “I don’t think many people will notice body hair. This isn’t about looking good for other people it’s about staying cool and having a good time.  Not to mention I think Fallon and I can agree you look in better shape then the two of us combined.” “No doubt. Sy I WISH I could have a body like yours. You look like a statue or like a soldier or... someone really fit.”  Fallon muttered, taking a finger and digging it into the sand. “Well I don’t feel comfortable so i’ll just... swim in this shirt. It’s not a big deal you know.”  Fallon raised a brow at Silas, eyeing his face up behind his glasses. He looked uncomfortable and weirdly shy. It was really unlike Silas at all. He knew that there was something up, he rarely saw his friend without a shirt even in situations when he should. Visiting his place and Silas takes a shower? He comes out with a shirt on but just a towel. Wakes up with a shirt on and just underwear. Picking at some stray body hair at times. “Well alright man, you know whatever makes you feel comfortable but... you look pretty damn hot to me.” He said, patting his friend on the shoulder as he gave  little sigh, getting up and heading to the water. The other two on the sand stared, face scrunching a bit in confusion. “Don’t go prying Fallon.” “I-I wasn’t going to-” Dom glanced to Fallon, making him grunt and through his hands up in the air a bit. “Ok fine, I just care about the lug can you blame me?” “I care about him too but prying could make things worse. Besides we know he’s self conscious about his body, if there’s more to it then he’ll tell us in time.” Fallon gave a few more grumbles and kicked at the sand, before getting up and stretching, adjusting his sunglasses. “Yeah I guess so. I’m gonna head out. Have fun uh... reading at the beach. Like an old man.” “I will. I’ll love being the old man I am.” he smirked, watching Fallon head off into the water before returning to his book. Silas dived unto the water, surrounding himself in the lapping waves and cool water. It felt great but he couldn’t help feeling the T-shirt cling to his body. It just made him conscious of it all. Maybe he should have worn something else. He should be fitter. Stronger. He had too much body hair and it grossed some people out. Clogged the drain, was scratchy.  If he just worked out more, found a better way to remove his hair maybe...  He lifted his head from the water and took a breath before beginning to swim along the shoreline, eyebrows furrowed at the thoughts in his head that swarmed him like angry wasps. He just had to try harder, he just needed... something.  Fallon stayed by the shoreline, waist deep in the water as he let the waves crash against his torso. Felt nice, though he swore there was some seaweed clinging to his feet. He looked at a few of the other people  in the water. A few kids staying close to the shore (Thank god). Older people, people his age. Some pretty people.  He stared at a woman, liking the pattern on her bikini. It looked so nice on her, and she looked really pretty. He looked at the man beside her, seeing how buff he looked. God he wished he could grow facial hair like that he was just a- A rather rough wave crashed against him, knocking him head over heels  into the shallow waves. When he managed to center himself, he popped his head out of the water only to notice in horror the lack of sunglasses on his face. That familiar black tint to the world, everything was just so damn bright. Fallon’s hands quickly brushed his hair in front of his face, taking a shaky breath as he tried to look around him in the water for his sunglasses. He knew they weren’t there though, as another wave crashed into him and probably sent the glasses further away from wherever they originally were. He began to panic a bit more, the people he noticed early seemed to look at him a bit more. He gritted his teeth and tried to hide even more, hand covering his eyes as he began to stumble back to shore to Dom. Dom looked up from his book a bit surprised at how disheveled he looked. “You lose your glasses? Haha, I told you before you should of took them off.” There was silence from Fallon as he began to search through the bag, hands shakey. “Can you not get everything wet, Fallon I don’t wanna dry-” “SHUT UP.” He hissed, grabbing Dom’s hand that began to reach for the bag. Dom yanked his hand back, shocked at the fingers that dug into his skin. “Where the... FUCK. Are you serious? Damn it Dom...” He clutched his face and  covered his face with his hands as he took another shaky breath. “WHO DOESN’T HAVE A PAIR OF GLASSES?” Dom set down his book and grabbed Fallon’s arms, trying to calm him down. “Jesus it’s ok. Hey calm down it’s just a pair of sunglasses...we’ll get you another pair. They’re cheap.” Fallon bit his lip, nodding his head as he blindly reached for his shirt and stuck his head inside of it.  “Yeah ok let’s just... do it quick please? Yeah? Yeah?” “Uh... yeah... you ...wanna tell me what the hell’s going on at least? You fucking... scratched up my arm like a tiger!” “I just don’t like being seen without my glasses.” “...Enough to act like this?” Dom asked in disbelief. “I mean I know we just had the talk about Silas but... he’s not yelling and cutting people up because of it!” Fallon took a moment, his feet kicking the sand that clung to his legs nervously before he began to speak. “It’s.. I just... shitty uh ... I don’t like... eyes on me. I don’t like making eye contact man, I don’t like the fucking eyes. It like hurts. Yeah I know it’s... weird, blah blah whatever but i’m weird ok, so it fits!” Dom rubbed his arm cautiously, eyes darting around his friend before he began to look around. “You gonna be ok for a while here? I think there might be a shop nearby.” Fallon nodded his head inside of the shirt and Dom got up, grabbing his shoes and wallet and walking out to the small line up of shops. Dom was confused about the whole thing as he walked. He never... saw Fallon act like that it was really shocking. He couldn’t help touching the scratches on his arm and marveling at how much he dug into him.  Eyes? Something about eyes was that his problem? Did he have a phobia?  First Silas’s body issues and now this.  Dom couldn’t help but think of his own problems, his OCD that wracked his life in secret. Of course he didn’t look like he was a bit unstable in that department but it really did effect him. Needing things to be orderly and counting constantly. The medication helped that was for sure. He closed his eyes a bit, sighing softly. They were a bunch of fucked up guys weren’t they? It didn’t take long for him to come back with a shitty pair of sunglasses, finding Fallon with his head still in his shirt. “Hey bud, here you go.” He waved the pair with the tag still on in front of the shirt hole. Fallon quickly snatched them up, tearing the tag off and placing them on his face under the shirt. Dom watched as he gave a little shutter, hands writhing under the shirt before he took the shirt off, glasses on. “You good?” Fallon nodded his head, hand pushing his soaked hair back as he stared at the ground. “Mmm... i’m... sorry.” was all he could mutter. “You wanna go home?” He nodded his head and Dom began to pack up, waving over Silas who was panting from how much he was swimming back in forth. He didn’t explain much to Silas, he didn’t wanna be that guy, but he just explained that he was gonna give Fallon a ride home and probably head home himself. Silas nodded, saying how it was a good idea and that the entire  beach trip wasn’t the best idea in honesty. ‘Maybe next time.’ Yeah... he hoped so.

Damaged, Chapter Nine
Tumblr media
Chapter note: School is still hell, so this is still in the rough stages. Sorry guys :/ On the plus side here’s a little ThorBruce, and introducing Tony :)
1,232 Words
Tony Stark's house looks almost exactly the same as it did the night before. Not that Natasha can remember much of it, as she was more than a little drunk, but the front porch looks familiar. And unfortunately, so does the brunette standing awkwardly next to the door.
Natasha forces down her embarrassment and climbs out of her car, trying not to think too hard about the situation.
“Hey,” She smiles, and Tony smiles back, though the tension is still pretty high. “Listen, I’m really sorry about last night, I wasn’t really thinking very clearly…”
“Hey, it happens,” Tony shrugs. “I’ve been wasted at enough parties to know. Listen...I’d happy to ease up your tab, if you want.”
“Seriously?” Natasha raises an eyebrow at him, but he smirks back.
“If you help with the cleanup?” Tony offers, and Natasha sighs. While cleaning up after a bunch of sloppy drunk teenagers doesn’t sound appealing, it sounds a lot better than spending the money she had been saving for her date on a booze charge from the night before.
“Deal,” she sighs, and he grins, patting her on the shoulder.
“Come on in...what’s your name?”
“Natasha. Romanoff,” She says quickly, and he nods.
“Well, Romanoff, ad you’ll hear from everyone around here, I’m the king of nicknames...so im just going to call you Red, okay?”
Natasha’s a little too tired to care, so she just follows him through the doorway and into the wrecked living room.
The night before, the room had been full of twerking teenagers and a gigantic stereo, but this morning it is littered with red solo cups and stray jackets.
“A few people stayed over. I’m going to start kicking them out, if you could start picking up the trash?” Tony asks, and Natasha just nods tiredly.
“Got it.” She grabs the black trash bag that Tony offers and bends down to start collecting the cups off the ground. That’s when she hears the wet, messy smacking coming from the corner of the room, and jumps in surprise when she sees a couple straddling each other on a chair in the corner, completely oblivious to her presence.
“Jesus, sorry,” she blushes, scrambling to back out of the room as the boys turn around. “Um...sorry, I thought I was alone...I didn’t mean to interrupt…”
“Hey, it’s fine,” the guys shrug. The brunette with curly hair crawls off of the blonde and the two stand as if her catching them making out was a normal occurrence. “I’m Bruce, by the way.”
Natasha just blinks for a moment. Tony Stark has some confusing friends, and Bruce and his blonde friend are far from the strangest.
“I’m Thor,” the blonde one smiles at her, and Natasha just smiles at them as politely as she can.
“Um, nice to meet you,” She says carefully, still a little confused. “I’m Natasha.”
“Red! Her name’s Red!” Tony calls from the back of the house, and a sleepy group of teenagers wanders out of the house towards the front door, Tony at the back like a hyperactive sheepdog. “Everyone out, come on, the doors that way. Thor, Bruce, you guys can hang out.”
“Wow, you got a nickname already?” Bruce smiles, seemingly impressed, and Natasha shrugs, a little overwhelmed. “Good for you.”
“Uh, thanks. I’m just here to help clean up,” she says quickly, and goes back to collecting the solo cups as Tony bustles into the main room with the smugness Natasha is beginning to associate with him.
“They call me rage monster,” Bruce chuckles, and Natasha raises an eyebrow at him. Bruce grabs a trash bag from the counter and kneels to help her. “Yeah, it’s kind of ironic, actually.”
“You should see him when he gets mad, though,” Tony laughs, hopping up on the counter and grabbing one of the remaining bottles of beer, popping the lid off with a bottle opener and taking a long drink. “Don’t get on his bad side.”
“Noted,” Natasha laughs, and even though the situation is completely awkward, she feels much more comfortable with this group of boys than she has with a lot of the kids in her classes.
“Thor over there? He’s Point Break. Big weight lifter, used to be a wrestler in high school,” Tony motions to Thor, who smiles sweetly at Natasha. He reminds her strongly of a puppy. A combination of sweet, caring, energetic, but can sometimes be aggressive.
“Nice,” Natasha grins, and Thor shrugs modestly.
“Everyone did high school sports.” He says, grabbing the remaining trash bag and sweeping the glass shards off the counter into it. “How about you, did you do any sports?”
“I was a gymnast,” Natasha smiles at the memories. Almost seven years she spent in various gyms with various coaches, but there was something comforting about the consistency of the sport. Everywhere she went, no matter what country or state, gymnastics was always the same.
“Were you any good?” Tony raises an eyebrow, taking another drink from his beer.
“I was alright,” Natasha grins. Truth be told, every gym she went to she was easily one of the best there. Maybe it was because of the dedication she had to the sport, or the hours of strength training she put in every weekend, or simply her natural flexibility, but she always seemed to be at a higher level than most of her teammates. “I also did a bit of self defense for a while.”
“Boxing?” Thor asks curiously, and Natasha laughs.
“A little,” she shrugs.
The conversation takes off, and Natasha listens avidly as Bruce tells her about his scientific social experiments, and Tony rants about his professor, and Thor tells her stories about his brother, Loki. The hours pass quickly, and they clean up the main room, back porch, bushes and kitchen without complaint. When they finish, Tony glances at the clock, and puts his hands in his pockets, looking at Natasha with a sideways grin. Thor and Bruce have already returned to their spot on the couch, and even though they’re refraining from kissing in front of her, she can tell the second she closes the door the make out session will resume.
“Look, Red, the place looks pretty clean, you’ve done your part. I’ll handle washing the sheets, if you know what I mean,” he winks, and Natasha rolls her eyes. “But hey, you seem pretty cool, so maybe we should hang out sometime?”
“Uh, I have…” Natasha stops herself from saying the word boyfriend. She and Clint are going on one date, and he seems a little shy of labels, so she bits her tongue. Tony picks up on it, however and smirks at her.
“Relax, I meant as a group. Bring your….boyfriend? Girlfriend? Friend with benefits? Complicated relationship buddy? Whoever they are, bring them with you,” Tony laughs, and Natasha sighs, her cheeks heating up in a blush.
“Sounds good,” she smiles at him, and he waves to her with his free hand.
“So long, Red. Hopefully I’ll hear from you soon,” Tony nods, and Natasha closes the door behind her.
Once she gets back in her car, she rests her forehead on the steering wheel, trying to push the headache away. She glances at the clock, and groans into the silence. Too much to do. It’s only two o’clock, but she completely spaced lunch. Plus, she had a date in four hours.

-3 Weeks Later-
“What in the pink Himalayan salt, is this shit?!”
The year barely started and I was already in deep with issues. With trying to open up my own gym; moving and trying to spend time with my friends, my soon to be ex husband just had to add more things to his side of the divorce settlement.
“Genevieve Leona. Language.” Her father had the chance to look over the new settlement that she has given, checking to see if there were any plausible loopholes.
Placing a gentle kiss on her father's graying cheek, she handed him a glass of water, before sitting across from him at the island.
“Sorry dad. But you of all people should know how difficult this is. You've handled cases harder than this.”
“Sweet pea, I get it. I do, but I need for you to calm down please?”
His hardworking hands were placed on top of my delicate one's, trying to ease my pain. Who knew that going through a divorce was so time consuming and dreadful.
“He just works my nerves. I’m glad I went with the prenup before hand, because he would've gotten half of my building space. Which I’m not having that.”
Opening my own space is a dream of mine, something I've always wanted since I was 12. Whether is was going to become a gym; a skating rink or a combination of both, I was going to have it. Jake knows about it too, but he doesn’t like seeing me succeed more than him.
“We’ll get this all straightened out soon enough. In the meantime, don’t work yourself up over this clown. Like ya mama says ‘he ain’t worth hella beans.’ She’s wise you know. Imma head on home, and we’ll talk more later.” A hearty chuckle escaped him, as he kissed my head before heading to his car, to make it home before the sunset.
“I know, I know. She was right about this one, maybe. Call me when you get home, pops. Ok?” Giving him one more goodbye kiss, I waved at him before making it back inside.
“Operation: Get Jake out of my Life, is a go. All I need is some wine and dancing. I know just who to call.”
Picking up the phone to dial the FaceTime group chat, I was greeted by the other two angels in my life.
“What’s up golden girls. Y’all busy this weekend?”
“Nah not really no. We could go out tonight, I just finished up the schedule for the upcoming comic con in July. Gotta have costumes on deck to win. Ryan and I are good to go, his work thing ain’t till Thursday right?
Destiny never stopped working, even after college she made sure her coin was on point.
“I’m free this weekend too. Yeah him and John have this medical convention Thursday, which I clocked it to be 15 min away, so we all good to tag along as a group. Whatcha have in mind?”
Cynthia, our resident spy, could never be too careful when it came to men she dated. But Johnny never gave her a reason to doubt him.
“Skate night at Roller Jam. I need to get loose for a few hours to some Cool & The Gang. Besides it’ll give y’all a chance to see ya girl get down on some wheels.”
Roller skating has been in my blood since I was in the womb. My parents met at a roller skating rink and they’ve been groovin ever since. I happen to be the captain of my own roller skating team called Roller Queens. Best team to ever roll into Staten Island.
“I can get down with that, be like old times.” Destiny agreed.
“Great times. Oh what about Mr. Tall, blonde and gorgeous? Have you talked to him lately?” Cynthia changed the subject.
“Ha ha. No I haven’t. But he has been blowing up my Instagram like crazy. I have replied a bit though, nothing too drastic. Some chicks  have been messaging me like ‘get away from him’; ‘he doesn’t want a hoe like you’ or ‘you’re not his type. Step off’ These little girls man, I’m telling you.”
It’s not like I don’t want Florian, I mean who doesn’t? Have you seen him lately? All jokes aside, I’m not looking for anything serious right now no way. I’m too busy trying to get my divorce finalized.
“We know you clapped them back. No time for the girls, this is grown woman ish.”
“What Dede said.” Cynthia chuckled a bit, candying is all to join in and I saw her man in the background. So I gave him a wave before looking at the time.
“Speaking of time, it’s getting late. I have to go get Leilani from the recording studio today since Lucas has their car and his game ran late. Plus Donny is on a date so, Older sister to the rescue.”
“We’ll see you at the rink Friday, ok?” Destiny said as she moved around the kitchen only for Ryan to say hi to me as well.
“Yeah. At like 5 ish, it’s late skate so it’s better. See y’all later. Mwha!” Sending then both my love and kisses, we hung up and went on about our business.
As I got ready to head downtown, I got a text from Michael saying he’s still in town for the next few weeks. That could only mean one thing: it was for business. Which also meant that Florian would be with him too. Maybe my week we starting to look up. I texted him what studio I’d be at, kill two birds with one stone.
Walking into the studio, I heard the smooth R&B sounds of Leilani’s voice through the speakers. This is where she’s always in her element, she turns everything out and puts her all into her vocals and practices. I couldn’t be more prouder of my siblings for going for their dreams.
“Good job little bird. Come out real quick would ya?” I smiled happily as she walked out the booth, proceeding to give me a hug in return.
“You really think I’m good? I know I need more practice, but I know I’m getting better day by day. How’s life going for you? Jake still being a little shit?” Leilani arched a brow, sitting in the chair across from me.
“As always. He added more “demands” to our divorce settlement, and I’m pretty sure I can’t meet them at all. So he’s stuck with his shit, and I keep mine.” I shrugged a tad, spinning in my chair and Leilani gave me a look.
“Well I hope he gets what he’s asking for cause all this is too much on me, and I ain’t even the one divorcing him. Let’s get your mind off of it, why don’t you go sing in the booth one time?” She suggested and the look turned into a smile.
“Me? In the booth? I haven’t done that in years Lei.” 6 years to be exact, but who's counting.
“That’s just it. Give it a shot and try it. That one song you were working on for the talent show, back home. What was it called?” She really wanted me to sing for her once. Anything for my sister I guess.
“My Love For You. It’s called My Love For You.”
“See?! Please sis? I want to hear you sang one time. I got Marcus here and we can cut it real fast. Nothing like a side hobby next to skating right? Please!” Leilani held my hands and gave me a puppy dog pout.
“Fine! Fine I’ll do it.” I broke down and earned a squeal from her, as I went into the booth. Putting on the headphones I saw Michael and  Florian walk in just in time.
“Oh snap, cuzzo going in the booth.” Michael received a hug from Leilani, before he introduced her Florian who was a smitten kitten over seen Geneva again.
“Yeah yeah. Mike, don’t distract me please I’m in my zone. And you brought Florian too. Now I gotta show out.” I shook my shoulders a bit, receiving some laughs from the group before getting the signal from Marcus.
“Yes I’m here too. Michael didn’t tell me you could sing. So I am interested even more now.” The smirk that etched his perfect face wasn’t helping the fact that he looked good in his red track suit. Jesus be a fence.
Did it get hot in here? The heat must be on cause my face was feeling warm, when he smirked at me. I can not lose myself over this man.
“I’m ok. Been a while but maybe it’ll all come back to me soon.”
With a slight nod, I opened my phone to the lyrics I had saved in my notes, and just went with the rhythm. I had to think of something that made me happy in order to do the song. At the time it was Jake but, now I just had myself.
The track started off and Leilani was already vibing to the beat. Michael was too, with Florian soon falling in line. Controlling my breathing, getting the hang of it all over again. Hearing the background vocals, I got into the groove.
I, I'm saving all the
I'm saving all my love for you (to you, I)
I'm saving all the love (whoo, oh)
I'm saving all my love for you
Looking straight at Florian, I decided pour all my emotion into the song to practically let him know what i was feeling without being direct.
Ridin' round town in your black Impala
With my baby, yeah, that's my partner
Look the other way when they tryna holler
So unbothered, we're so unbothered
See I got niggas slidin' in my DMs
Stevie Wonderin' if I'ma ever see 'em
But I don't pay that shit no mind
No, I don't give that shit no time, no time
I just curve 'em from the a.m. to the p.m
Oh, baby, you're the reason
That none of these niggas can touch me
Ain't none of these niggas get lucky
No, no, no, no, no
Florian’s POV
“Man, I think she’s singing to you.” Michael lean over towards me, mumbling about something as a smirk appeared on my face.
“Maybe so. Remember the bet I told you about, that we set at the New Years party? I still have to prove myself to her a lot if I want to make this work.” I mentioned while leaning against the wall. Entranced by her voice.
“Yeah yall both told me about it actually. You think you can do it? I mean she’s pretty persistent with whom she dates. Last guy only lasted 3 weeks, on top of her on going divorce cause Jake plays too much.” Michael had informed me about her future ex husband and how much of a moocher he is. The faster he leaves, the better chance I have.
“Better me than him.” I knew i had to make a good impression on her at least, because she hasn’t been treated right in so long from what I’ve been told by her friends. Giving her my undivided attention, I know she felt the sudden shift in change.
Geneva’s POV
Whatever the boys were talking about must’ve been important, by the way there were engaged in the topic. Once Florian looked at me again I got back into the zone, hitting those notes.
Only you, yeah, it's only you that get my attention
Only you, swear it's only you, ain't no competition, no
'Cause baby, you give me everything that I've been missin'
That's why I'm saving all my love for you
yeah yeah, saving all my love
Saving all my love for you
(I'm saving all my love)
Saving, saving all my love, I'm saving all my love for you
It ain't with nobody else, you got it all to yourself
Just keep doin' what you do, baby
And I'ma keep saving all my love for you
Oh oh oh
Saving all my love for you, saving all my love for you
(I, I'm saving all the love I'm saving all my love for you) Yeah
I felt the rhythm all over my body while moving to the beat, imagining what it would be like to be with someone who might actually love me for me.
Yeah, if I had a hundred, I would break you off a fifty
Yeah, I know you'd do the same, I know you'd split it with me
Yeah, on ya team, Micheal Jordan, Scottie Pippin
Long as we got each other, I ain't trippin'
You the one, you the realest, you the realest (I, I)
Only you, yeah, it's only you (only you) that get my attention
Only you, swear it's only you, ain't no competition, no
'Cause baby, you give me everything that I've been missin' (oh)
That's why I'm saving all my love for you
“Oh shit, sis is snappin on the vocals.” I could hear Leilani through the cracked door with one headphone on my right ear. It felt good seeing her vibe to me singing, it was something we do growing up. To get that opportunity again was amazing. Florian kept smirking at me, with a sudden lovey look in his green-gold eyes. He was leaning by Marcus, on the soundboard just in tranced by everything. I gave it my all and even hit a high note in there.
Saving, saving saving all my love
Saving all my love for you
I been saving (saving it for you)
(I'm saving all my love)
Saving all my love, saving all my love for you
You got it all to yourself
Just keep doin' what you do, baby
And I'ma keep saving all my love (all my) for you, oh (oh yeah)
Saving all my love (my love) for you, saving all my love for you
All (you) my (you) love (you) for you
(You) all (you) of my love saving all my love
You got it all to yourself
Just keep doin' what you do baby, yeah yeah
You got it all to yourself
Just keep doin' what you do baby, doin' what you do baby, yeah
You got it all to yourself
Just keep doin' what you do baby, doin' what you do baby, yeah yeah
You got it all to yourself
Just keep doin' what you do, baby, doin' what you do, baby, hey
Oh, what you do to me, baby
Oh, what you do to me, baby
I, I'm saving all the
I'm saving all my love for you (for you, I)
I, I'm saving all the
I'm saving all my love for you
Sending a wink in Florian’s direction, the game had started for us both. I had remembered that skate night was this weekend, the perfect opportunity to get this bet started. Coming out the booth feeling giddy about myself, I received a hug from my sister gaining my confidence over tenfold.
“You my dear, have a gift.” Florian took my hand and placed a kiss on top of it, trying to sway my way.
“Thanks. It’s one of my hidden talents, that I let you see without an ulterior motive.” with an arch in my brow, I gained a few laughs in the room. Looking him up and down, he eyed me too.
“You plan on giving me a show with your other talents, love?” He arched his brow as well, biting his bottom lip. Michael and Leilani were eating up the commentary.
Leilani took a picture of me for a split second, along with getting one of Florian with a shit eating grin on his face.
“Now yall both can either kiss already or do the first challenge. Am I right?” Mike reminded us both, setting the whole mood in motion.
“He’s right. Listen, this friday there’s a skate night at my old stomping grounds; Roller Jam in Staten Island. If you can skate to the beat, with some rhythm, I’ll go on a date with you.” crossing my arms across my chest, I felt confident in myself and always up for a challenge.
“Roller skating? You may have to help me out then. I’m tall enough but willing to learn.” Florian nodded in agreement and smiled genuinely at me. He handed me his phone to plug his number in, to set the game in motion and vice versa.
Sending the directions to the skating rink to him, I managed to take a picture of myself for the contact, and he did one for his in my phone. Before I left with my sister I set the tone of the challenge, standing on my tippy toes in my vermillion Nike Air Maxs, and placed a sweet kiss to his cheek. Looking into the reflective mirror on the wall I saw his cheeks turn red. His scent caught my senses, and it was intoxicating. He smelled like a warm fire and cocoa, something I wouldn't mind snuggling up against. Pulling away, I saw him look into my eyes for a split second, drawing me in but I had to be strong.
“Let the games begin, Munteanu.” With a gentle whisper against his ear, I grabbed my things and left him there speechless. Watching him watch me walk away with a sway in my hips.
“Let the games begin indeed, Shaw.” he was biting his plump bottom and giving me a once over one last time.
“You got it bad for my cousin bro. Let’s just hope for your sake, Jake doesn't come around and try to win her back.” I heard my cousin say to Florian as they left as well.
“I’d like to seem him try. I never lose.” the confidence in his voice stirred something in me, awakened the desire in me to finally be happy.
If Jake thinks he can mess up my fun, well he’s got another thing coming.

15 and 24 with sprace
Waking Hour
15. Calming them down when they have a bad dream
24. Tracing your names together in the sand
wow what a combination okokokok let’s get this bread
warnings: blood, death, but its ok!!! i promise!!
ship: sprace
word count: 1064
Race lay on his back, the sun beating down harshly on his stomach.  He kept his eyes closed, the distant sound of children shouting and seagulls squawking falling just short of his full perception.  He sighed, allowing the noises that surrounded him to fade out, leaving him with just the ocean and the wind.  
A soft pair of lips pressed against his and he grinned, cracking his eyes open to see Spot hovering over him, a sincere smile on his face.  
“Mm,” he hummed, reaching up and running his fingers down Spot’s jaw, “Getting soft on me?”
Spot rolled his eyes, leaning down again to kiss him, “Never.”
“Yeah, okay,” Race smirked, patting his cheek and sitting up, accidentally knocking Spot off balance.  
He barked out a laugh as Spot floundered, brushing sand off his bare stomach as he sat back up.
“Asshole,” he grumbled, but the playful glint in his eyes still shone bright.
Race grinned, reaching out for his boyfriend’s hand to steady him.
“Here,” Race said, shifting onto his knees and dragging his finger along the sand to trace a heart, “come be cute with me.”
Spot’s eyebrows quirked, amusement playing on his face, but he joined Race nonetheless, helping him carve their names into the middle of the heart.  It was almost too cheesy for them, but Race felt oddly giddy being able to display their love for each other in such a flashy way.
Spot topped off the heart with an arrow protruding from either side, smiling as he sat back to observe their finished work.
Race sat, watching Spot survey the heart with a fond expression.  He looked truly happy.  It was a sight he wanted to bottle up and keep safe forever.
But the moment was over almost as soon as it had started when Spot began coughing.  Harsh, violent coughs wracked his body and he doubled over from the force of them.  He was convulsing, eyes screwed shut in pain as blood made its way past his barely parted lips.  He stared up at Race with panicked eyes, pleading for help.
Race froze, unsure of what to do.  What was happening?  Was Spot sick?  He tried to move towards him, but his legs wouldn’t work.  They felt heavy, weighed down by invisible boulders that held him glued to the spot.
“Racer,” Spot croaked, reaching a hand towards him.  Alarm spread through Race’s body as Spot’s hand seemed to zoom away from him, the world around him tunneling as he remained just out of reach his suffering boyfriend.
Spot’s coughs had increased almost impossibly and he was turning an alarming shade of white.  Race opened his mouth to call to him, but his lips were stuck together.  He couldn’t even make a sound.
He watched with phantom tears flowing down his face as Spot coughed a final time, his body shuddering with one last breath.
Finally, Race’s lips unstuck and he let out a scream.
“Jesus, Racer, whoa!”
Race was sitting up in bed, sobs ripping out of his throat uncontrollably as the world came rushing back.  It was dark.  Why was it dark?  Why was he suddenly wearing a shirt?  
His hands flew to the surface under him, only to find that it was soft and silky and incredibly different from the coarseness of the sand that he’d felt not moments before.
“Race, look at me.”
There was the voice again.  Loud in his head.  No, loud because it was coming from right beside him.
He urged his head to turn and look at the source of the voice, but his body wasn’t listening to his mind.  It was like they were riding on two separate tracks.  One frozen in fear, the other bulleting forward at a mile an hour, trying to make sense of the fear.
He became keenly aware of the fact that he wasn’t getting any oxygen.  Well, he was, it just didn’t feel like it.  At all.
A new brand of panic joined the already present fear and he whimpered, trying not to hyperventilate as he attempted to reign in his sobs.  Why was he so scared again?
Oh yeah, Spot.
Spot’s gone.  Dead.  He died, he-
“I’m not dead, Antonio, I’m right here.”
Oh, he was talking out loud.  Interesting.
“Tony, can you look at me?  Try to see me?  I’m here and you need to breathe.” A gentle hand gripped his shoulder and he jumped.  It quickly retracted and Race let out a frustrated sob.  He wanted the hand back.  It was comforting.
The presence next to him disappeared and the mattress in front of him dipped, placing the person to whom the voice belonged directly in front of him.
Spot.  Thank god.
“Racer, baby,” Spot hovered a hand near his face and Race nodded, leaning into the touch as Spot gently held his cheek, wiping away some tears, “I’m right here, I’m okay.  Whatever happened was just a dream, c’mon.  Calm down, love, it wasn’t real.”
Race shook his head, leaning forward until he slumped into Spot’s arms.  
“Okay, yeah, there you go,” Spot cooed, wrapping his arms tightly around Race and running a hand through the back of his hair, “I’m here, It’s alright.”
It took a few minutes, but eventually Race gained control over his breathing.  He remained in Spot’s embrace, allowing the last coils of panic to unravel.  
“Doing any better?” Spot asked, voice low and comforting.
Race nodded, “Yeah, I’m sorry.”
Spot shook his head, “No, don’t apologize.  S’not your fault.”
Race sighed, sitting back and scrubbing a shaky hand down his face, grimacing when he felt the tear tracks that lingered.
“Do you wanna talk about it?” Spot prodded gently.
“Nah,” Race breathed, hazily leaning back into their pillows.  
Spot studied him for a minute, crawling over to join him, “Are you sure?”
“Yeah,” Race said, tangling himself back into Spot’s hold, “I’m pretty sure you can tell the gist of it.”
Spot hummed, “I’m sorry you got so spooked.”
Race shrugged, nestling further into Spot’s warm skin, “It’s okay.  You’re here and I’m here and we’re good.”
“Yes, we are.”
With a final measured breath, Race allowed himself to fall back asleep, legs entwined with Spot’s.

Tumblr media
Smoke billowed from the opened entrance to the clubhouse out into the brisk air of Charming, California. Your leather drew tight across your back as you wrapped your arms around your brother Jax upon your return. “It’s good to have you back, Y/N.” He smiled, kissing the top of your forehead.
“It’s good to be back, Jax.” You smiled sheepishly, your mind clustered with memories of your time inside, your eyes glazed over, finding the ground, your shoulders hung slightly.
“Y/N! It’s good to see you back in your kutte, it’s not the same around here without you.” Clay’s voice echoed from behind his cigar, the smoke escaping his lips with his words, “I appreciate what you did, for the club; means a lot.” He lowered his head and pulled you into his large body, tightly squeezing you in his embrace.
“Let’s get ‘er a drink! How’s ‘at soun’ Y/N?” Chib’s broke the silence, noticing you were getting inside your own head, his gloved hand smacking the back of your precious leather vest. Your eyes turned to find his, silently thanking him for the distraction.
“That’d be great, Chibs. Thanks.” You muttered as he swung his arm around your shoulders and lead you towards the clubhouse; your home.
***
As soon as the double doors opened widely there was an ocean of familiar faces that smiled and cheered upon your return. Members from all charters came to your ‘welcome home’ party they threw for you. Your mouth dropped open in response, then it curled into a bright smile and you walked deeper into the hall, greeting your brothers in leather.
***
“New prospects?” You questioned looking at the wide eyed, new faces that stared hungrily back at you.
“Yeah,” Opie started.
“That leather looks really fresh.” You observed, drinking from your glass, the liquid burning as it trickled down your throat.
“Two weeks.” Opie responded, his mouth opened to continue conversation with you but he followed your eyes. “Juice?”
Opie saying his name caused you to jump slightly and choke on your drink. “Uh, what— about. Him?” You stammered, trying to compose your schoolgirl-like smile, your mind clearly flustered.
Ope laughed, “Relax, Y/N. Your secret is safe with me.” He gripped your shoulder tightly and pulled you into his large body. He kissed the top of your head and whispered into your ear, “He’s a good guy…”
You nodded, your eyes traveled the crowded room, looking for another familiar face. “You seen Happy around here?” Opie nodded and pointed into a single direction. “Thanks.” You replied and began strut through the smoke that filled the air.
Before you made it too far from Opie at the bar, the music cut out and there was a few moments before the room fell completely silent. All attention on Jax who stood on the top of a table in the center of the room. “I don’t want interrupt this celebration too much so I’ll keep it short! Y/N! Welcome to the wall” he pointed to the infamous wall of the mugshots of SAMCRO where yours proudly hung, “and welcome home!” he finished raising his beer and smiling proudly, looking through the crowd to you, jumping down from the table and the crowd then erupted with glasses raised.
You smirked and hugged your brother tightly and pressed forward, your eyes searching for Happy.
***
“Hap!” You shouted over the booming music and loud laughter. Happy’s arms motioned the women to clear away, leaving just you and him. Juice’s eyes caught sight of you talking closely with Happy, his heart sank and he walked away in frustration, pushing open the clubhouse doors widely, breathing the cold California night air. Chibs followed the mohawked biker outside and lit up a cigarette.
“It’s great tha’ Y/n’s back. Club needs 'er.” He said, the smoke escaping his lips with his tone.
Juice nodded, “Yeah.”
“I missed ‘er.” Chibs said as nonchalantly as possible, watching Juice from the corner of his eye.
“We all did.” He smiled slightly, his heart still hurting from the sight of you and Happy, he sighed subconsciously and kicked a stray rock with his boot.
“You allrigh’?” He asked his friend, eyebrows furrowed, he turned towards him.
He rubbed his hand along the side of his mohawk and brushed the question off, “Yeah. Just tired.” He looked into the Scot’s eyes and then drifted back into the chaos inside the clubhouse.
***
“Think you can do me a favor?” You yelled into Happy’s ear over the loud music of the party.
“Anything.” His low raspy voice rang in your ear.
You lifted your left leg and pointed to your thigh, “I need another one, think you can do that?” You smiled. He smiled and nodded his head before taking you by hand and leading you towards the dorms.
“Sit down.” He commanded you, his back turned, getting ready. You unbuttoned your tight jeans and stepped out of them, laying down on the unmade bed. He turned back to you, “You ready?”
The muffled music combined with sound of a needle of a tattoo gun, Happy sat down in the chair and started on the newest addition to your collection of birds. “Can I ask you something?” He inquired.
“Yeah.” You asked him, voice thick with concern.
“Why birds?”
“You have your smiley faces; I have my birds…” you replied, your mind heavy once more.
He noticed this, after all, you bared the same patch as him; ‘Unholy Ones’. “Tough one?” He asked you shortly.
“They say ‘the first one’s the hardest.’” You smiled, he chuckled and continued to tattoo your thigh.
“This is seven, Y/N.”
You rolled your eyes, “Yeah, well this. This was different…” His dark eyes flicker up to you, “I knew her.” You paused, “Since we were kids. Grew up together…” you sighed and took a sip from the nearest glass bottle. “Had to be done though, Clay said she was going to rat on the inside to get her sentence shortened; give up information on the club. Couldn’t let that happen.” You confessed, he nodded in silence, giving you the chance to talk about what happened, no questions asked. “You know, it’s so funny how your this big, tough killer, biker man but, with me your not any of that. Just a brother, friend; you help me feel normal sometimes.”
He smiled, “Sometimes?!” He wiped you leg, “All done.”
“Thanks Hap.” Your head swung sharply to the door that opened quickly, you and Happy instinctively raising your weapons.
“Shit, sorry.” Juice shielded his eyes.
“Shit, Juice.” You began but he closed the door and jogged away. “Fuck! Juice, wait—” you ran towards the door, stepping out into the clubhouse hallway, his eyes looked back to you with such an intense pain and hurt. You sighed sharply and returned to the room to grab your pants. “Well that was a fucking mess…” you said buttoning your jeans again.
“Want me to go talk to him?” Happy suggested.
“No, he’s going to think what he wants.” You walked to the door, “I’ll talk to him later.”
***
“Hey, Y/N. Can I get a hand for a second?” Jax’s voice rang through the garage to your work station of the garage.
“Uh, yeah. Just give me a sec.” you replied, blowing smoke from your lips and putting out your cigarette. You grabbed a towel and wiped the grease from your hands and jogged over to Jax. “What do you need, Jax?”
“C’mon.” He said, grabbing your hand and leading you out of the garage. He stood there in front of you, his baby blue eyes looking over your face intensely with concern, he lit a cigarette.
“What is it Jax?” You said anxiously, you tone low.
“I’m worried about you, Y/N.” He said making your roll your eyes harshly.
“Jax, I’m fine. We’ve been over this already.” You retorted.
“It’s been a month and a half since you got out and I know what Clay made you do in there. You aren’t the same, Y/N. You need to talk to someone or something. I just want—” his tone elevated, attracting some attention from those at TM. He lowered his tone and his jaw, his eyes staring deep into yours, “I just want my little sister back.”
***
“Chibs, Y/N. I need you two to get intel on them. Make sure they’re with us.”
“Okay.” You confirmed, standing, cocking your gun and placing it in the small of your back.
“Alright then, you all know what you have to do.” Clay stated bringing the gavel down hard.
Everyone began to file out of the room into the main hall of the clubhouse. “Chibs.” The president of the M.C. said aloud, making him stop. “Make sure she’s okay.”
“She won’t talk to me.” Jax shook his head.
“Aye, Jackie Boy. I’ll keep an eye on her. Do wha’ I can.” Chibs’ tone was low and soft, not to tip you off.
***
“Go’ a new tattoo?” He asked you, pointing to your leg.
“Yeah,” you nodded, “Happy did it for me the night I got back.” You replied.
“Anothe’ bird?” He inquired, staring out of the window of the van you two where hidden in.
You sat their hesitantly, you nodded softly, “Yeah.”
“What happen’?” He asked firmly.
“Jesus Christ, did Jax put you up to this?” You laughed, “This is ridiculous; I am fine.” You shouted, quickly lowering your voice to keep your cover.
“You’re no’ fine, Y/N. You havn’ been the same since you go’ back.” He paused, taking a breath. “Juice was ordered too…talk to ‘im; he’s no’ doin’ too well wit’ it either.”
You choked away your tears, and cleared your throat, knowing that you weren’t really fine. “He’s not exactly my biggest fan at the moment.” You confessed, looking over to the elder.
“Wha’ you mean, lass?” He questioned you.
“He walked in while Hap was giving me this, he thought we were—” you trailed off.
“Aye.” He said in response, nodded his head. “He said—”
“What?!” You snapped your head to him. He nodded his head. “Come on it’s Happy.”
“I never sai’ I believed ‘im!” He laughed and pushed your shoulder.
“Good, ‘cause that would never happen!” You laughed.
The moment turned serious again, “You nee’ to talk to ‘im, lass. It would help both you an’ ‘im.” Chibs said softy.
You took what he said into consideration, it would help the both of you; you were going through the same thing…You nodded in response, “Okay, I will.” You paused, looking over to the Scottsman’s eyes, “Thanks, Chibs.”
***
“Who’s going to stay back and keep TM open, I can’t do that shit alone.” You blurted out before the assignments for the meeting with the Mayans was delegated. “I already know that you aren’t going to let me go so, I’ll just agree and stay here.” You smiled sarcastically straight ahead to the vice president’s chair.
Jax smiled back to you and leaned forward slightly, “Thank you, for your sacrifice dear sister of mine.” He tapped the butt of his cigarette, sending the extra ash falling into the ashtray. “Juice, you stay back.”
Juice’s eyes widened slightly in reaction to what his V.P. ordered. “Are you not okay with your—”
“I’m okay. I’ll stay back, no problem.” Juice interrupted Jax.
“So it’s settled. We leave in the morning.” Jax commanded and Clay agreed and slammed the gavel down.
***
“Good morning.” You said, tying your hair up into a ponytail.
“Morning.” Juice responded handing you your work shirt. “What do we have today?” He asked you.
“Wow, so you’re talking to me again now?” You said, looking up from the clipboard, raising your eyebrows at him.
“Blow me.” He muttered under his breath.
“Don’t tempt me Juan Carlos.” You whispered back to him.
He acted like he didn’t hear what you said in response, but his eyebrows furrowed when he walked out of the office into the middle of the garage. “Did she just—” he thought inside his head.
“Juice!” You called out to him from the office, “You’re first appointment is here.”
“Thanks.” He said and strutted over to you.
The day at Teller-Morrow with Juice went on without a problem, you two actually worked well together getting things done around the shop. While you and Juice were closing up the garage, the office phone rang, “Juice, can you get that for me please?”
“Yeah, I got it.” He put down the broom and jogged over to the office. “Teller-Morrow.”
“Juice, we’re going to be here for a couple days. We’re all good here, just keep Y/N safe.” Jax said from the opposite end of the line, “I gotta go. Be back in two days.” Then the line went dead.
***
“Everything okay?” You said crossing your arms and leaning up inside the doorframe.
“Yeah. Jax just said they aren’t going to be back for another two days. They’re all right though.”
“Okay…he say why?” You asked him.
“No. Kept it nice and short.” He replied.
There was a somewhat of an awkward silence between the two of you, this is the first time that the both of you had spent together since you got out. “Hey.” You said, breaking the silence, taking a half step towards him. “I’m sorry.” You paused. His face dominated by confusion so you continued; “That night, Happy and I weren’t sleeping together. He was giving me another tattoo—”
“You don’t need to explain anything to me, Y/N. You’re not my old lady, you can do what you want.” He spoke at the same time as you.
“Juice!  Just listen!” You yelled, “Please.” You took a deep breath and lowered your tone once more. “They ordered me to take someone out too.” His eyes went from the floor straight to yours. You shook your head and closed your eyes for a moment; “I haven’t talked much about it but…”
He walked closer to you, his eyes full of condolences, his hands lifted to hold yours, his eyes beginning to emote his broken heart. “Hey, come her.” He whispered, pulling you into a tight embrace, his rough hand coming to the back of your head, holding you tight. He pulled away for a moment, looking down to you, “Let’s go get a drink and you can talk about it if you want to.” He smiled brightly. You nodded and smiled back to him, he held your hand in his and lead you into the clubhouse.
***
“What can I get you?” He said from behind the bar.
“Beer is fine, thanks.” You replied sitting down in the worn black, leather couch.
Juice popped two bottles and sat down next to you. “I’m sorry.” He continued, “I shouldn’t have treated you the way I did. You didn’t deserve that, I knew what you were going through.” He paused, his thumb rubbing the back of your hand that he was holding. “You did six months in there for something that you didn’t even do, end up getting ordered to do a hit.” He sighed, “I did too.”
“You want to talk about that? Chibs said you were having trouble with it… first one’s always the hardest.” You said softly, gently squeezing his hand in yours.
“And you should know right!” He laughed, “What’s this make for you now?”
“Seven.” He raised his eyebrows at you smugly, “This one was different, Juice.” You laughed and playfully pushed his shoulder, he laughed with you. “This is nice. Like old times…” you said snuggling closer to him.
He smiled and looked deep into your eyes, “Yeah, it is.”
***
*ONE YEAR LATER*
“Juice, you want to go with me on the run in like five?” You walked over to where he was, glued to a computer screen by the bar. “Juice!” You said again, nothing. You reached over the bar top and swiftly pushed the screen down.
“What the hell, Y/N!” His voice thick with frustration.
“You were ignoring me, Juan Carlos!” You retorted back to him, “My actions are justified. You in for a run later?”
“Yeah, sure. What is it?” He leaned up on the counter, his eyebrows furrowed. “Isn’t Gemma’s tonight?”
“Yeah, it’s more of a ‘I forgot to get something for my mother’s dinner tonight’ run, not a club run.” You laughed.
“Yeah, I’ll go with you.” He smiled, he watched your body as you turned around to reach into the bottom cabinet. Jax cleared his throat, startling him.
“You guys coming to Gem’s tonight?” He leaned up on the bar, next to Juice, his intense, overly protective brother eyes burrowing deep into Juice’s. “You know Mom would be really upset if you didn’t show tonight.”
You straightened up, “Yeah, Juice and I are getting ready to go get something. Forgot to make a dish.” You raised your eyebrows to your brother.
“Yikes! Well, you better get moving then, sis.” he said, slapping Juice on the back and leaving with the sound of his Harley.
“We can take your bike, that okay?” You questioned him with doe-like eyes. He nodded and swung his arm around you.
***
“Hey Mom, sorry we’re late.” You said, hugging Gemma.
“That’s okay baby. As long as you’re here, that’s all I care about.” She smiled, “Go ahead and put that in the kitchen, Y/N.” You nodded and walked towards the kitchen and all the noise. “You sleepin with my daughter now, Juan Carlos?”
Gemma’s question caught him off guard, “What, no! We’re just frie—” he began but Gemma cut him off.
“Bull shit, Juice. I see the way you look at her. How you get when you’re around her. You were there for her when she was going through some shit…really helped her.”
He didn’t know what to say because he knew all of what she just said was true, so he folded, “Does anyone else know?” His voice lowered into just above a whisper.
“No; not now anyway.” She was serious for a moment, making Juice squirm. “I ain’t gonna say anything to them, relax. Just, treat her right. I know you will.”
Juice smiled and nodded his head, “Thank you, Gemma.”
“Juice?” You called for him.
Juice looked to Gemma for permission to go to you, she smirked, “Go, food’s almost ready.”
***
“Jackson!” Gemma got his attention.
“Yeah, Mom?” He asked her.
“There something between your sister and Juice?” She crossed her arms, glaring across the room where he had his arm around your waist.
Jax followed his mother’s sight line and his body tensed, “No, but that’s a little friendly for being friends.” He looked back to Gemma, “You know something I don’t?”
“No, just a mother’s intuition.” Gemma said, brushing a piece of Jax’s hair behind his ear.
“All right, I’ll talk to Clay. Make sure that comes to an end.” He said before kissing Gemma’s forehead and walking over to the table, taking his seat next to Clay.
He leaned over and began to talk, Clay’s nostrils flared and his eyes flickered over to where Gemma was standing, leaned up against the entrance to the kitchen. She took her husband’s stare as a message to get you away for a moment.
“Y/N, come give your mama a hand for a minute.” Gem called for you from the kitchen.
“What’s up?” You said, walking into the kitchen with a beer in hand.
***
“Juice. Jax and I need to talk to you.” Clay stated firmly, pointing to the door.
The door closed and Jax grabbed the collar of Juice’s kutte and slammed him up against the side of the house. “What the hell man!?” Juice shouted.
“You stay the hell away from my sister, you hear me?” Jax spat in his face.
“You hurt her, Juice and I swear I’ll rip those shitty tribal tattoos right off of your head.” Clay said calmly, lighting a cigar. “Enough, let’s go eat.” 
Jax stared intently at Juice before releasing him.
***
“Hey, um. I’m sorry Gemma but I’m going back to the clubhouse, I’m not feeling too well. Enjoy your dinner.” Juice smiled, shyly and turned on his heel and quickly left.
“Where’s he going?” You asked, eyebrows furrowed.
“He’s not feeling well, gonna go back to the clubhouse to get some rest.” Gemma said, giving Clay and Jax an intense look.
You sat there, the chair next to you was empty as you ate. You helped your mother clean up and once everything was just about done you called Juice. He didn’t answer; you figured he was just sleeping or playing video games or something, no big deal…right. “Hey, Jax. Mind giving me a ride home? I came with Juice but he’s gone so…” you crossed your arms and rocked onto your heels on your boots.
“Yeah, sis. I’ll take you back.” He got up from the chair, “Bye Mom.”
“Bye baby.” She said, leaning into his body as she finished washing the last dish.
***
You finally worked up the courage to do it, knock on the door you knew Juice was behind. It’s been two weeks since dinner at Gemma’s, since that night he hadn’t exactly talked to you; just club stuff or mechanic stuff, nothing personal…it was different. You waited anxiously, you heard shuffling from the opposite side of the thin door.
“Hey; we need to talk.” You said, walking into his room before he could deny you.
“Y/N. You can’t be here—” he started.
“Why, Juice?” You said with a hint of frustration, “What the hell happened to us?” You said sitting on the edge of his unmade bed.
“Please, Y/N.” He said, his voice tired and rough.
“You helped me through killing my childhood friend, a hit ordered by Clay and we become close. And after what I did…” You shouted, standing sharply from the bed. “I never thought I deserved love, then you showed me I do!” Your chest shuttered as you realized what you had just let slip out. “Over this past year, Juice…”
His eyes widened, his chest tightened, “Y/N.”
“I hate that I’m in love with you.” You whispered, wiping a tear from your now wet cheek.
“You aren’t, Y/N. You can’t be, please.” His eyes pleaded with you. “You deserve better than me.” He lowered his jaw and let his eyes fall to the ground.
“Juice.” Your voice just above a whisper, you slowly walked over to him, your hands gently came over his jaw, raising his face to look you in the eye. “I wasn’t lying when I said I love you.” 
“If they find out…” he paused, “I just don’t want you to get hurt, Y/N.” He whispered and lowered his head again; you gently cupped his jaw, raising his face to look into his tearful eyes.
“I will always love you and I think that’s what hurts the most.”
He closed his eyes, allowing a tear to fall, you leaned in gently; kissing him passionately, he didn’t hesitate to deepen the kiss. Your romantic moment was cut short by a loud knock on the door.
“Just a minute.” He shouted. “Did you think about the consequences?” He held your face close to his.
“Do you love me?” You whispered. He nodded quickly, “Then fuck the consequences, Juan.” He smiled and kissed you one more time before cracking the door open after making sure you are out of sight.
“We’re a’ the table.” Chib’s heavy accent made him easily identifiable. He sighed and leaned against the doorframe, “I kno ye, love Y/N. Jus’ go an’ tel ‘er. Who cares wha’ Jax and Clay think, they’ll see jus’ how happy ye make ‘er an’ they’ll support ye.” He said, gently patting him on his bare shoulder.
Your cheeks blushed a light shade of rose, Juice closed the door and turned to meet your eyes, his face brightened up with a wide smile and he left out a small chuckle, brushing the back of his head. “What he said…”
You smiled and wrapped your arms around his neck kissing him once more before placing your forehead on his, “We are finishing this later.” You smiled wickedly and winked before sneaking out of his dorm.
***
You lay there, your body barely covered by the grey sheets of Juice’s bed. Everything was in slow motion as you watched him get dressed, your heart swelled with overwhelming love and happiness; everything was out in the open between the two of you; things were normal again.
“What?” He smiled at you, zipping up his pants after he noticed you watching him.
“Nothing.” You smiled contently.
He crawled back onto the bed, his body overtop of yours, his lips came down to meet yours, kissing your hard and passionately. “You’re my old lady, I don’t care what they say. I love you.”

Mission Impossible
Pairing: Peter x Stark!Reader
Characters: Peter Parker, Tony Stark, the Avengers (mentioned), Vision (mentioned), Aunt May (mentioned), Daughter/Stark!Reader
Word count: 2,380
Summary: Peter wonders what his next mission from Mr. Stark will be, but he’s in for a surprise- it’s not a matter of what, it’s who.
Warnings: none, just fluff 
A/N: im alive! well, I've arrived, more like, cause no one in this fandom knows who the hell I am. Hi, I’m Luna, and I’m in love with peter parker. Usually, you can find me at @dean-the-smol-bean writing supernatural fanfic, but lately, my love for Marvel (and our favorite Avenger-in-training) has exploded, and it’s made me want to write for him (and possibly other Marvel characters) as well. So, here I am- can’t just start off easy am i? this is chapter one of what will be a who knows how long series. I hope you’re intrigued! anyways
PS- TYSM to my love @justawaywardwinchester for helping me edit my absolutely horrendous amount of spelling errors and generally get my life together even when it’s not her fandom. ♥️ u always
Send me an ask if you want to be added to the tag list!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
   “Mr. Stark, thank you so much for bringing me in on this, I won’t let you down, I promise you won’t regret this-”
  “Yeah, yeah kid, whatever, listen, this is the most important mission I have ever put you on, okay, so don’t get too cocky. Keep your head straight and keep your eye on the prize.”
  Peter gulped, taking a deep breath as he trailed behind Tony eagerly. Ever since his help in defeating Thanos, Tony’s been putting a lot more faith in him, and to say it’s been amazing would be an understatement. Today, he’d called him in for a new mission- the third major one thus far. He wasn’t a full Avenger quite yet, he was still living with his aunt May,  ‘staying on the ground’, as he put it. However, each time Peter’s phone flashed the name of Happy Hogan or Tony Stark, he found himself practically jumping from his chair to answer it and fling himself into whatever battle was asked of him.
Which brings us to today.
  “Alright,  through these  doors is the thing most important to me, my most prized creation, the one thing that matters most to me in the entire world- you’re most crucial mission.”
  Peters' eyes went wide as Tony stretched out a hand, pushing open the double doors, a combination of excitement and fear fighting for dominance in the pit of his stomach.
  To his surprise, however, all he was met with was what looked like a classic New York studio apartment- a little out of place in the modern, high tech, Avengers compound, but not otherwise significant.
  He was quickly greeted by what felt like a hoard of animals- two gigantic Doberman pinschers came bounding forward, jumping upwards and attempting to lick at his face.
  “Whoa- wha-?” he smiled, laughing a bit as they sniffed him up and down, awkwardly petting them in return as they nearly pushed him over.
  “Hey, down boys! Down- down. Jesus, I am so sorry,”
  Suddenly, the dogs were off of him, and Peter chuckled, closing his eyes and wiping the slobber from his face as he responded to the unfamiliar voice.
  “It's cool! I love do-” halfway through his sentence, he opened his eyes, only to be halted in his tracks by the most beautiful girl he had ever seen. He’d know your face anywhere- anyone would- you were Y/N Stark. But like most people, he’d never had the pleasure of seeing you in person- and god was it certainly a pleasure.  
  “-w-whoa-” he breathed out, and Tony turned, giving him a searing look, but neither of you seemed to notice as you ushered away your pets, and Peter watched every movement. You laughed, soft and sweet in his ears, unlike anything he’d ever heard before.
  “Well that’s good, but who doesn’t, I guess? I mean, if anything I’d take it as a compliment that they like you so much, they’re very picky.”  
  “Huh… yeah…”
  Peter seemed to be in a daze like he had been staring at the sun for too long and suddenly his vision had gone blurry. Tony glanced between the two of you, tapping his foot impatiently.
  “Anyways…” he interjected, and you turned to face the both of them, “so, Y/N, this is my new intern, also known as the ‘Spider-Man’” he waved his hands in a dramatic arching motion, emphasizing the name teasingly. In any other circumstance, Peter would have objected- ‘it’s just- just Spider-Man. Not the-‘ and no doubt he’d be muttering something about the dramatic speaking of his name, but today, that all just passed him by. Instead, he found his focus unyieldingly centered on you.
  “Well, it’s nice to meet you Spider-Man. Tell me, does Spider-Man have a regular name? Or have you just been climbing up buildings and swinging through New York since birth?”
  Peters' eyes widened, snapping from his gaze realizing that the sweet sounds coming from your lips were directed at him.
  “Oh, uh, yeah, yes. I’m Peter-man- I mean Spider-Parker- shit- I mean-“
  You laughed, a sugary sound that dripped through the air like warm honey, making Peter feel as though he didn’t care if he was making a complete fool of himself if it meant he could hear that sound again.
  “Nice to meet you, Peter-man Spider-Parker. I’m Y/N Stark. Sorry, I don’t have a cool superhero name like you to insert between my boring person name,” you joked, and Peter found himself chuckling at you- the thought of having the last name ‘Stark’ and feeling anything but super practically baffling him. “And you’ve already met the dogs-” you turned, nodding your head towards the two, giant animals lying on the sofa behind you. “-Sirius and Remus.”
  Peters' eyes lit up, crinkling a bit at the corners as his lips fell into a lopsided smile.
  “You named your dog after the Marauders?”
  You snickered, nodding.
  “Well, half of them. But yes, I did. You read Harry Potter?” you inquire, and suddenly Tony feels as though you’ve forgotten he’s there.
  “Do I read Harry Pott- uh, yeah.” He said, incredulous. “Do you breathe air?”
  You giggled, and a grin spread across his face for making you laugh
  “Of course. It was a stupid question, what house are you?”
  “Hufflepuff! And my wand is 13 inches with unicorn hair core, what about yo-”
  “Alright, as… magical, as this conversation is, you and I have got some talking to do about your newest mission,” Tony raised his eyebrows at Peter, and he understood. “I just thought you two should meet. Sorry for the interruption, princess. How’s the project coming?”
  “Good. It’s definitely gonna need some more work- I just can’t get the background colors  right for some reason.”
  You frown, frustrated, and it’s at this moment that Peter registers your paint smattered shorts and oversized hoodie- the Stark Industries logo smeared with bright blue paint, splotches of varying colors splattered all across both its fabric and your skin. He’d been so taken aback by you that he’d nearly gotten tunnel vision, barely registering anything else.
  “Well, don’t worry kiddo, you’ll figure it out, you always do. I’m sure it’ll be beautiful.” He reached out, ruffling your hair a bit, your bun flopping from side to side. You scrunched up your face, half-annoyed, half-endeared, giggling.
  “Well, we’ll leave you to it. Parker?” he turned, pointing towards the doors they had entered through. Peter nodded excessively, glancing between his mentor and the girl in front of him.
  “Nice meeting you, Peter,” She said, and the most angelic smile graced her lips. He let out a shaky breath, nodding.
  “You too- nice meeting you too-”
  “Parker” Tony called after him, already out the door, and waiting.
  “Right, sorry.”
  “Now, Peter,” Tony began.
  They were back in the lab, and Peter was trying not to fidget too intensely as he sat awaiting his instruction. “Like I said before, through those doors was your most important mission.”
  Peter furrowed his brow, thinking about what Mr. Stark had told him just before he introduced him to you.
  “Oh yeah, what was that? You never actually got to show-” Tony raised his eyebrows, staring at him. He swore, for a kid genius, this boy could be incredibly slow sometimes. It took him a second, but Peters’ eyes went wide.
  “Oh- you meant-?”
  “There we go, good job kid, you got there.”
  “But how is she- my ‘mission’? What the hell does that even mean?”
  “It means,  that girl is the single most important thing to me in the whole world, and nothing- I mean capital ‘N’ Nothing can ever happen to her.” He got up from his seat across from Peter, turning to face the gigantic, wall-sized window overlooking lush, green, upstate New York. “And… as much as I’d like to say being Iron Man is all kicking ass and getting chicks… it’s not. Being a hero is dangerous, and it creates a lot of enemies. Enemies who would do anything to get what they want.” He paused, taking a deep breath. “So I need someone to protect her. Someone I can trust. High-level security team just won’t cut it and I can’t exactly have the entirety of the Avengers just trail her around. So, that’s where you come in.”
  Tony glanced over his shoulder at Peter, who straightened up, immediately, trying to hide his incredible excitement at the statement ‘someone I can trust’.
  Tony turned completely then, his stiff stance relaxing a bit, and Peter wondered if anything had happened to you before to bring on this high tension in Mr. Stark. He hoped not.
  “Plus, I think it’d be good if she had a little… friend, or whatever. Someone her age. Her only friends can’t be the super-human freakshow we call the Avengers and her dad, it’s just not right.”
  Peter chuckled, in awe of the idea of even living with all those people, let alone being friends with them.
  “Got that, kid?” Tony finished, and Peter nodded, straightening himself even more.   “Yes- yes sir, Mr. Stark sir. Of course.”
  Tony nodded, unbuttoning his suit jacket and slipping it off.
  “Good, now scram, I’ve got work to do and your anxious teenage-boy energy is messing with my space.” Peter pushed himself up to stand, mumbling an incoherent ‘s-sorry’, unsure if Mr. Stark was joking or not. He turned away, reaching for the doorknob.
  “Kid, wait,”
  Peter, stopped turning eagerly standing at attention.
  “Last thing and this is the most important thing… don’t fall in love with her. Or whatever.”
  Peters’ eyes went wide, and he nearly choked on his own tongue.
  “What?”
  “You heard me. I saw your bubbly little interaction earlier. Any girl, kid, really, I’ll be your wingman. But not my daughter,”
  Peter stood there awkwardly, feeling somewhat like he was getting ‘the talk’ for some reason, unsure of what to say. “Capiche?” Tony continued, and Peter nodded, laughing nervously.
  “Yeah, yeah right. Of course sir. I would never.”
  Tony remained silent for a moment, his eyes narrowing into a piercing glare. Peter felt as though he were in the scope of a rifle, and the wielder was still debating whether or not he would pull the trigger.
  “Good,” Tony said, and Peter let out a breath he hadn’t known he was holding.
  “Now scram. I mean it this time. Go do some homework or something- no spider-manning until you’ve finished all your school work alright?”
  “Yes sir, of course. I’ll see you tomorrow.”
  “See you tomorrow, sport.”
  The door swung shut behind Peter, and he let out a long breath, feeling like he’d just stepped out of a long, intense interrogation. He shook that feeling off, tilting his chin up and squaring his shoulders as he made his way towards the front of the compound, where Happy would no doubt be waiting to give him a ride home. Just as he grabbed his backpack, someone called from behind him.  
“Hey, Peter!” That same, serene voice rang out through the quiet compound, and he found himself tripping a bit as he turned all too eager to face it.
  “Whoa! Easy there.” You laughed, catching him as he stumbled forward.
  Peter pushed himself off you immediately, and he could feel his face warming to a bright, beet red.
  “I am, so sorry oh my god-”
You only laughed, and he found himself melting like soft serve once again.   “Don’t worry about it, seriously. I’m a bit of a clutz myself, always bumping into things. It’s fine.”
  Peter stared at the floor, embarrassed, gripping the straps of his backpack so tightly he wondered if his super strength would tear them.
  “Me too. But, you could already tell that I guess.” He said with an impish smile, and you nodded.
  “Yeah, I kinda got that.” You teased, and he felt his ears go a shade darker. “But there’s gotta be something more to you than clumsiness, a cute smile, and a radioactive spider bite, Parker. My dad is super picky about who he lets meet me, so you’ve got something special in you, pretty boy.”
  Peter found his stomach doing somersaults at the term ‘pretty boy’. Maybe your father's charm was genetic.
  “I uh- I don’t know about that.” He stuttered, and you laughed.
  “I do. Watch, you can prove it to me. Lemme see your phone.”
  “What?”
  “Your phone! So I can give you my number and you can tell me all about how bland and boring you are. All I do all day is lay around the compound and try to get Vision to give me a straight answer as to whether he’ll die if he says ‘control, alt, delete’, so I’ve got plenty of time on my hands. He says that’s ridiculous but I still haven’t heard him say it so I’m not convinced.”
  Peter laughed, bright and genuine as he shook his head.
  “Alright. Here.”
  He reached into his backpack, pulling out his cracked iPhone, handing it to you. You took it, deft fingers tapping quickly across the screen as you entered in your name and number.
  You handed it back to him, and he glanced down at his screen to see you’d sent out a text.
  ‘Hi’
  “Now I have yours.” And as if on cue, the sound of R2-D2 beeped from her back pocket. Peter smiled at that. She pulled out her phone (it was a brand new the XS, which technically hadn’t even come out yet. He wasn’t surprised.) and showed him the screen. His number and the message ‘Hi’ flashed across her screen.
  “Perfect.” He grinned, and his own phone beeped.                                       
  May: Home soon? Trying a new recipe. Be ready for a scorched kitchen and takeout.
  He laughed, stuffing his phone into his back pocket, swinging his bag over his shoulder.
  “Well, I should really…” He began walking backward pointing toward the front doors.
  “Right yeah. I’ll text you?” she held up her phone, waving it.
  “Yeah, totally- yes. Yes please.”
  Please? Jesus Peter, how desperate can you get.
   She giggled, wiping a strand of hair out of her face, and he watched as a stripe of red paint smeared across her cheek as she did so.
  Oh, he was never going to be able to follow Mr. Starks rule.

Tiff’s WTF*ck Challenge
Hey friends!
I’ve been feeling pretty disconnected - less reading, less reblogging, less interaction - since my job change and having less time to spend around here, so why not fix that with a writing challenge?! Yes? Yay!
One of my old favorite sources of internet humor is Sleep Talkin’ Man. And your assumption is correct, he talks in his sleep. His wife started recording him and posting the clips online and it’s hilarious.
SO - for this challenge, I’ve collected some of the absurd, inappropriate, foul, and funny quotes from that delightful fella and now challenge you to incorporate it into your SPN fanfic.
Rules:
Send your quote request as an ASK ONLY please so that I can keep track.
You can write for any SPN character, my preference is Sam and Dean, but you do what feels right.
Any genre/pairing/trope is welcome, just make sure you tag it appropriately!
One writer per prompt.
Fics will be due by July 1. I’ll post the masterlist just before I go to ChiCon.
Use the tag Tiff’s WTF Challenge to help me track your fic
Yes, you can combine it with another challenge, yes, you can have an extension if you ask for one, yes, it can be part of a series.

Eyes Closed (M)
G-Dragon: Angst/Small amount of fluff/Eventual smut
PART 2-A: The One About The Night Before
A/N: Crap sorry it’s so late you guys, I was trying to edit as fast as I could I swear! But if there are typos my bad lmao Anyway I feel like this one is a bit short but I hope you enjoy nonetheless! 
P.S. Part 2-B should be out some time tomorrow.
(Part One)||(Part Two-B)
Tumblr media
       I woke up with a jolt and a cold sweat, feeling like the entire room was still spinning; physically feeling like I got hit by an eighteen wheeler. I brushed some of the mess of hair from my face and through half lidded eyes I tried to look around the room to make sure I didn't end up in some stranger’s place; thankfully for my dignity I wasn’t but unfortunately for my ego, I wasn’t.
      “Ugh what time is it?” I groaned reaching for my phone on the nightstand. Fumbling around the nightstand the only thing my hand was met with was the touch activated lamp that blinded me with a bombardment of light. “Argh no!” I threw my arm across my face. I frantically hurried to shut off the lamp that felt like it was emitting the rays from the sun. Only managing to open one eye I looked around for my phone and discovered it was strewn on the floor with a mess of clothes and shoes. I groaned again not wanting to leave the comfort of the bed, I outstretched my hand nearly falling off the bed and quickly nabbed my phone and hauling myself back into my previous position under the covers. Pressing the home button to my phone I again was greeted with a flash bomb of light and covered my face with my hand; slapping myself in the process. Still adjusting to the light I peeked through my fingers desperately looking to find the time. ‘2:00 p.m. fuck’ With my phone unlocked I went wide eyed, ‘Shit, shit, shiiiit’ I thought; I had 17 missed calls and 10 voicemails from Saige. Looking for some kind of answer I scrolled through her text messages that only seemed to get more and more aggressive the further I scrolled along.
      ‘Alex where the hell did you go?’ <received 1:44 am>
      ‘Itsf o k im with djsaho’ <sent 1:52 am>
      ‘Ok bitch you are waaaaaaay too fucked up, where are you?’ <received 1:52 am>
      ‘Urd th e bitc yo bcht’ <sent 1:55 am>
      ‘I’m being serious Alex, if the paparazzi or some douche bag from the internet get a picture of you like this we are royally screwed’ <received 1:55 am>
      ‘Dnt wrry Gbe okie’ <sent 1:56 am>
      ‘Dont do this to me McMahon, WHERE ARE YOU????’ <received 1:56 am>
      ‘Byiii cee yu ntx wek’ <sent 1:57 am>
      ‘Wtf do you mean see you next week???’ <received 1:57 am>
      ‘Alex?’ <received 1:59 am>
      ‘HELLO?!’ <received 2:01 am>
      ‘ANSWER YOUR PHONE I KNOW YOU KEEP DECLINING THE CALL’ <received 2:05 am>
      ‘I swear to God when I see you I am going to kick your ass’ <received 2:06 am>
      ‘AND WHO TF IS DJ SAHO?! YOU SAID YOU WERE DONE WITH DATING DJS’ <received 2:06 am>
      ‘Oh my God Alexandra PLEASE JUST ANSWER YOUR PHONE IF YOU DON'T WANT TO TELL ME WHERE YOU ARE’ <received 2:10 am>
      ‘Ok somebody told me you went home with someone, for your sake I hope it was Jesus and not that DJ Saho or whatever’ <received 2:15 am>
      ‘Open the door! You know I can hear you and DJ what's his face laughing!’ <received 2:30 am>
      ‘I don't care that we are staying at the Palace Hotel Alexandra. I WILL break down this door if you don’t open up!’ <received 2:32 am>
      ‘OPEN THE DOOR’ <received 2:33 am>
      ‘No oo itd coolr ift yo u berki t don’ <sent 2:33 am>
      ‘I SWEAR TO GOD’ <received 2:34 am>
      ‘Fine see if I care when you end up on the cover of some Korean tabloid and Ji-Yong finds out you're here’ <received 2:36>
      ‘wh att’ <sent 2:36>
      ‘Good night Alex :)))’ <received 2:37>
      Re-reading the last exchanges between us my heart felt like it started beating so fast that it was bound to burst right out of my chest any second. ‘Fuck. Fuck, fuck, fuuuuuuuuuuck. How could I have been so stupid?!’  I thought to myself. Normally I’d say I don't care but that is far from where I am mentally. Suddenly I was brought out of my thoughts by a loud knocking on my door. Still paranoid with the thought of J-him seeing me I climbed out of bed and approached the door carefully. The closer I got to the door the more anxious I became; that mixed with the killer hangover that hit me like a ton of bricks was quite possibly the worst combination of things that could happen at a time like this. The knocking started to feel like the noise was pounding against my skull, wanting to rid myself of this monstrous beating on my brain I opened the door without hesitation. Only to be met with the last person I would ever think would show up at my door.
      “Alex?” he raised an eyebrow.
      “Tim?” I reciprocated.
      “Jesus H--no offence but Saige wasn’t kidding when she said you might look like you crawled out of Hell this morning”
      I clenched my jaw “Just come in before anyone else has to endure my ugly” I slammed the door shut behind him causing myself to wince at what sounded like an explosion went off in my brain.
      Trailing behind him I watched him maneuver his way over the mess that was all over the floor; just clothes and shoes in different piles scattered in every square inch of the room.
      “Jeez, you didn’t want to clean up first?” he said finally making it to the bed.
      Too exhausted to argue I rolled my eyes and plopped back on the bed beside him.
      “Man, guess you had a good night last night?” he smiled leaning back on his elbows.
      “Ugh, if this is what this hangover from Hell is indicating...I wish I hadn’t” I covered my eyes with my arm “When did you get in by the way? I thought you were going to be in Japan until tomorrow? And not that I don’t love you but why are you here in the first place?”
      He chuckled “To answer your questions: I got in about three hours ago, I had a change of plans aaand Saige sent me on a recon mission”
      “Why?”
      “She said and I quote ‘Dear God Tim would deal with her because I can’t take her after last night’ end quote” He chuckled again “Also seeing as two of my best friends just got here the night before and one of them was already causing trouble I decided that spending time with that girl in Japan was not really worth it…”
      I uncovered my eyes with a gasp “Oh my God, you are such a jerk--”
      “Relax” he put up his hand “whatever we had between us wasn’t really going anywhere anyway. I think she really just wanted to be with me so she could say she was with me. Seeing as who I hang out with nowadays, it's getting harder and harder to figure out who wants to hang out with me for me and not for ‘Tim Drake, the DJ who so happens to be signed to Seungri’s music label so that must mean he is friends with BigBang’. I mean they’re not wrong, I am friends with them but still it the principle of the thing” he rolled his eyes.
      Merely looking at his face I could tell he was genuinely hurt, he was one of the nicest and most sincere people I have ever met and just knowing that my selfish wish somewhat came true made my heart hurt.
      “I mean I guess that’s what you get for being such a hot shot DJ with an attractive everything to match” I said trying to make light of the situation.
      “Shut up” he laughed “By the way, are you just gonna chill in your underwear the entire time or are you gonna put on a robe?”
      I looked down at my bra “Tim it’s not like it's the first time you've seen me in my underwear. I think we are past that point in our friendship”
      “I mean I don’t have a problem, I just don’t want you to think I’m being a perv” he said sincerely.
      “I would never” I jokingly gasped and placed a hand on his shoulder “Anyway, tell me about your new life here: How do you like it? How’s it been? Besides that girl, how is your love life here? You know all that good stuff” I rolled over on my side to face him.
      “Its been..good?”
      “That doesn’t sound too convincing Timmoth” I squinted my eyes at him.
      He let out a small laugh “No I’m serious! Everything's been great so far, minus the whole ‘love life’ thing” he air quoted.
      “So does that mean you and Chaerin still haven’t talked?” I rested my head on my arm.
      “Yes, that means I still haven’t talked to Chaerin. Honestly I don’t think that’ll ever happen. I mean I invited her to my party so the only thing I can do now is wait and see if she decides to show up. But I’m not going to be completely heartbroken if she doesn't, at this point I’m used to getting the short end of the stick with her” he sighed.
      “She’ll show I’m sure of it, if there is one thing that sticks with you after breaking up with your boyfriend no matter how long ago it was you always remember those tiny details about them. She, I’m sure, is no different”
      “Don’t even get my hopes up” he playfully pushed my shoulder “Alright enough about my lackluster love life, what about you huh? I’ve only heard about your rendezvous through what people tag me in on twitter”
      I rolled on to my back again staring up at the ceiling “Ugh. I’ll just say it’s slim pickins in LA. I seriously feel like I’ve about dated everyone in Hollywood at this point. I’m just so bored with everyone there, Saige suggested we move to Manhattan for a while to get a change of scenery and...men”
      He let out another small laugh “Orrr”
      “Or what?” I turned my head to face him.
      “Or you could come move here and not only would have a complete change of scenery but you’d get to be with me and also an entire new buffet of men to choose from” he wiggled his eyebrows “Ya know” he cleared his throat “I happen to know one or two, single, billionaire musical geniuses that--”
      “Ha-ha very funny” I interjected “don’t even go there Tim”
      “Oh come on Alex!” he put a hand on my shoulder “You’re gonna see him this weekend anyway, why prolong the inevitable?!”
      I brushed his hand off my shoulder.
      “Okay, okay I take it you’re still mad at me about me not telling you that he was coming until you were on your flight over here, but what was I supposed to do? If i had told you earlier you would have either A) not come at all or B) run out of the airport and go AWOL again!” he scrunched up his eyebrows.
      I took and deep breath and looked away from him.
      “And I couldn’t just not invite him when all of the other guys were going to be there, that would have looked super shady on my part. Besides I know you two have your issues, that you still refuse to tell anyone why you guys broke up about in the first place, but he’s also a homie”
      I turned back to glare at him “Okay well then why don’t you marry him then if he such a good homie?”
      “Very mature” he stuck out his tongue “look you and I both know I love you more than anyone in the entire universe, but you also gotta understand he and I are still cool. He’s also one of the biggest musical influences here and I’d really rather not get on his shit list”
      “Are you just doing this because you want me to talk to him?” I raised an eyebrow “What about girl code? If I hate someone you hate them right back, you don’t just hang out with them like it’s nothing and twiddle your thumbs up each other's asses!”
      “First off, ouch how dare you say I broke girl code ” he pretended to act hurt “And secondly, I didn’t just do this because I wanted you two to talk...well actually that’s partially it...but that’s not the point! What matters is that we all enjoy ourselves this weekend and celebrate not only my day of birth but also my first album finally dropping; all while making sure it is completely drama free for everyone involved” he smiled.
      I crossed my arms and let out a big sigh.
      “Besides, I think after last night you don’t need anymore drama to be broadcasted out for the world to see”
      I sat up quickly “W-what do you mean?”
      “Oh, you haven’t seen?” he sat up with a concerned look on his face “Well ummm...here let me show you”
      ‘Oh God, Saige was right why didn’t my drunk ass just listen to her?!’ I thought to myself. ‘Oh man she really is gonna kick my ass when she sees me…’
      Tim, taking out his phone pulled up some news article that held embarrassing pictures of my drunk self with some guy. Thankfully most all of them were grainy and the pictures were kind of dark, all except for one.
      “What.the.f--” I let out a blood curdling scream.
      “Hyung, don’t get me wrong I just don’t think this is a good idea” Seungri tried for the thousandth time to pull Young-Bae back by his arm.       “I already told you, we at least have to make sure he’s alive” Young-Bae said undeterred by the maknae’s actions “What are you so afraid of?”       “And I already told you, if Ji-Yong Hyung is even possible of being conscious he is going to be pissed that we woke him up just to see if he’s still living and have us maimed!” the younger man pulled on his Hyung’s shoulder.
      The older man simply smiled “Not me”
      “Oh must be nice being the golden star best friend! In case you haven’t noticed, Ji-Yong Hyung loves to show me gestures of his affection by inflicting nothing but pain on me and therefore gaining some kind of sick pleasure from hurting me!”
      The older man stopped in his tracks causing the maknae to slightly bump into him “Seungri we’ve all been friends for longer than ten years, don’t you think if he actually wanted you dead he would have done it by now?” he smiled and continued walking.
      Seungri stuck in the spot that he stood thought before he spoke “You know that’s not actually very reassuring!” he called after his Hyung.
      Young-Bae now at the end of the hallway shot Seungri another smile but this one evoking an eye smile along with it. The maknae picked up his pace and swifty jogged to the older man’s position. Both now staring down the door to Ji-Yong’s condo they both were thinking about the repercussions of actually waking the dragon. Young-Bae not wanting to take the first blow pushed the younger man in front of him.
      “Well go ahead, knock on the door” he gestured with his hand.
      Seungri dramatically pointed to himself “Me? You want me to knock on the door?”
      The older man nodded.
      “Hyung were you not listening to anything I was saying back there?” he stared at Young-bae incredulously “Wow. you all must really want me out of BigBang, well it was nice knowing you”
      “Yah” the older man smacked him behind the head “Don’t be so melodramatic and knock on the door would you? And besides we can't afford to lose you. You're too important”
      The younger man rubbed the back of his head “Wah. do you mean that Hyung?”
      “Yea if we lose you then who else are we going to pick on? Dae-Sung? Not on your life” he said with a smug smile on his face.
      The maknae looked to the heavens and closed his eyes, cursing at his Hyungs in his head; the only place he was safe to do so.
      “Yah!” another smack to the back of the head “Quit being a dick in your thoughts and knock on the damn door!”
      Seungri went wide eyed; guess he wasn’t so safe in his own mind after all. He shakily raised his fist in the air toward the ever menacing black door. What laid beyond that threshold could either be a nice Ji-Yong welcoming them into his home or the actual Ji-Yong who was going to rip Seungri a new one for waking him. The maknae took a deep breath before he gave three small knocks.
      “Hyung?” he whispered.
      Young-Bae side eyed him “What human being in your right mind is going to be able to hear that?” The older man grabbed a hold of the maknae’s fist and raised it to pound on the door.
      “No, Hyung wait!”
      With not even a full knock, the door swung wide open. As if it were some cartoon, the two stuck both their heads over the threshold and looked inside.
      “Hello?” they said in unison.
      The two stood up straight and began to walk over the threshold at the same time only to get halted by squashing into each other. The older man glared at the maknae and shoved his shoulder to get by. Seungri merely rubbed his shoulder and closed the door behind him. Looking around the living room gave no impression of anyone actually living there, everything was perfectly in its place making it look like it was some kind of eerie museum.       “Ji-Yong-ah?” Young-Bae called out peeking into every doorway.       Seungri having already accepted his fate decided to go rifle around his Hyung’s things in his living room; picking up a sculpture here, touching a nicknack there, leaving fingerprints on his vinyl records...whoops, breaking off a piece of said sculpture.       “Yah” Young-Bae called out to him.       The maknae quickly put down the abstract sculpture and shoved the broken piece behind some books on the bookshelf. He looked to his Hyung who was whispering ‘he’s in there’ and pointing to the door that was left ajar. Again as if the two were in some Scooby-Doo cartoon, they carefully tiptoed into the sleeping man’s room. There sprawled out all over the bed, with half of the sheets and comforter dangling off the bed, was the sleeping form of their best friend. With his mouth parted and a slight trail of drool coming out of his mouth Ji-Yong let out a loud snore that startled the maknae causing him to step back onto a squeaky cat toy; Young-Bae slapped him on his shoulder.       “Yah! Are you trying to to get us killed?!” he whispered loudly.       “I thought you said you had nothing to worry about!” Seungri loudly whispered back.       “I don’t! I’m just worried about you” the two of them continued their whisper argument only to be startled again.       “Yah! If you two are done pretending like I can’t hear you, you can both kindly get the fuck out” Ji-Yong lifted his head up sleepily.       “Sorry” the other two said in unison.       “What do you even want at this hour?” he said plopping his head back into his sea of pillows and tangled bed sheets.       “It’s three in the afternoon” they said again in unison.       Ji-Yong dazedly lifted his head again looking toward his window “No it's not there’s no sun”       Walking to the window Young-Bae pulled the curtains back “that's because you live like a vampire and have black out curtains “       “Yah!” Ji-Yong struggled to bury himself under his sheets “What are you trying to kill me?!”       “Ok enough” the dreaded man walked to his bedside “we dealt with your drunk ass last night, it's all been fun and games but now it’s time to wake the fuck up” he pulled him by the only foot that was sticking out of the covers.       Ji-Yong clawing at his bed like a cat protested.       “Come on man just get up!”       “Do we have a photoshoot?” he asked in a muffled voice with his face firmly planted onto the mattress.       “No?”       “Music video shoot?”       “No?”       “An interview?”
      “No?”
      “A record to write?”
      “No, Ji-Yong why--”       “Then I have no good reason be even be conscious” he said taking his foot back “       “Seriously man come on, Seungri and I--”       “Seungri?” Ji-Yong quickly lifted his head and snapped it in in their direction.       “Yea Seungri, who the hell else did you think I was arguing with?”       “I don’t know Young-Bae, I’ve stopped questioning the voices”       The other two glanced at each other raising an eyebrow.       The dazed man rubbed his face with his hand “Ok I’ll bite, why the fuck are you here?”       “Because you can’t keep living like this! I hardly get to see you when we’re not on tour or doing some kind of press junket or variety show, even then we pretend like everything is all ok when it’s not. All you do is drink yourself stupid, complain while you're drunk, smoke so much that I swear one of these days you’re going to need an iron lung support or something!  It’s like the Kwon Ji-Yong I grew up with doesn’t even exist anymore!”       Ji-Yong pursed his lips “Tsk. What are you my girlfriend all of a sudden? Get in line you're not the only one who noticed. Any other complaints or can I just go back to sleep?”       The dreaded man let out a heavy sigh “Pfft. yea right we’d all know where that would go real fast…” he said under his breath.       “What was that?” he threw off the covers hopping off the bed and walking to square up to his best friend.       Seungri, having been silent the entire time, noticed this was going to take a turn for the worse and intervened before any fists went flying.       “Ji-Yong Hyung”       He turned to glare at him.       “Young-bae Hyung” he held up his hands between the two “Why don’t we just go to the kitchen and get some food and some coffee in you guys huh? We can eat a little, talk a little...not using harsh words...and just get rid of the bad energy from last night”       The two older men glanced at each other “fine..” they said in unison and headed out toward the kitchen.       “Hey Hyung” the maknae trailing behind the two spoke up again “Don’t you wanna maybe change out of your clothes from last night?”       Ji-Yong stopped in his tracks to glare at him.       “N-nevermind…”       Along the way Ji-Yong stopped to boot up his laptop that was sitting on the kitchen island then made a b-line for the coffee maker and his pack of cigarettes. Young-Bae simply leaned against the furthest wall and looked down at his feet, still fuming about his little spat with his best friend. Seungri, even in everyday situations, made his way into the kitchen last. He caught a glimpse of his Hyung’s laptop screen and immediately stopped mid-step.       Ji-Yong raised an eyebrow “what did some porn pop up or something?” he asked lighting his cigarette       “N-no. just a picture of” he cleared his throat “Kim Tae-Hee popped up” he gave a weak smile.
      The older man gave him a questioning look “Ahh ok?” and turned to ash his cigarette in the ashtray before him. His fingers slightly trembling from the actions of the previous night caused him to accidentally drop his cigarette into the sink.       “Aish!” he hollered as he threw his now soggy cigarette into the bin and turned away from the other two to light another one.       The maknae, wide eyed, looked to his other Hyung as a plea for help. Trying to subtly beg the dreaded man with his eyes that he needed him to distract Ji-Yong while he closes out of the webpage on the laptop’s screen; needless to say his actions were lost in translation. Young-Bae not understanding what the younger man was trying to tell him raised an eyebrow and mouthed ‘what?’, Seungri balled his fists in silent frustration and turned the screen toward his oblivious Hyung and emphatically pointed to the news article that blatantly held pictures of ‘DO NOT CALL HER’ in the arms of a man that wasn’t Ji-Yong and at the same exact club they were at the night before no less! Young-Bae went wide eyed and quickly dashed in the direction of the unsuspecting man before he could turn back around; he put his arm around his shoulder. Ji-Yong feeling suspicious about his two friend’s actions wasn't sure what to think; truthfully he didn’t want to think at all he’d much rather be back in bed ignoring everyone.       The maknae glanced as his two Hyungs talked it out and as Young-Bae took it upon himself to have a death grip on Ji-Yong’s shoulder forcing him to look out the window as he poetically described the meaning of their friendship to him. Seungri acting quickly turned the laptop back toward him and carefully closed the article but not before looking at all the pictures and reading the headline. ‘Alexandra McMahon Out Partying in Seoul With Mystery Man: Keep reading for pictures below’. Oh shit he was really going to be in trouble now.

nineteen firsts and one last
-SNOWBAZ-
Summary: It’s Simon’s nineteenth birthday. He’s not expecting anything unusual, just some messages from his tumblr friends. But Baz has different plans.
Word count: 3.7k

Tags: tumblr au, friends to lovers, distant relationship, first meeting
Ari: This is just an edit from last year’s fic, because I didn’t like the format. Happy 20th birthday, Simon ♡
SIMON
I wake up to the doorbell ringing. I look at the clock. 5:59 am. Fuck. Who could it be at this unholy hour? Probably my father, coming back home drunk after a night of partying. Damn, why didn’t he stay in the hotel, as usual?
The doorbell rings again. “I’m fucking coming, dad!” I yell.
I put on some clothes and go to the door. I open it, ready to scowl at my father but, instead, there’s a delivery girl looking at me through her pointy glasses.
“Good morning,” she says. “A packet for Simon Snow.”
“Uhm… that’s me,” I tell her, a little bewildered.
She gives me the packet and makes me sign a paper. I tell her thanks and make to go back inside. “Wait,” I shout before she leaves. “Next time, could you come, I don’t know, in the afternoon? When I’m not sleeping?”
“Sorry, the sender wrote specific instructions to deliver this on 21st June at precisely 5:59 am. He even paid an extra and called the company to make sure we followed the instructions. Sounded rather bitter. I wouldn’t risk my job,” she explains. Ha. Like dying her hair blue wouldn’t risk it. Though, I have to say it looks awesome on her dark skin.
“Oh, in that case… Thanks. Have a nice day,” I wish her.
“See you later!”
I close the door and go to the living room, to open the packet. It’s a basket full of fresh-baked cherry scones and some blocks of butter. There’s a card with a note. It reads:
Some like it hot (page 38)
5:59 am - First breakfast to your door
I’d bring it to your bed if I were there
Baz
(Gampire Chaz to my Craigon Rain)
Oh my God. Baz. Right, it’s my birthday. It’s nice of him that he remembered. Baz is my best friend on tumblr. Well, he is my best friend, period. Although I’ve never met him in person, I feel like we’ve known each other for years. And to think that we used to be at each other’s throats!
When I first read the book A Charmed Life, I became hugely obsessed with its characters—i.e. the protagonist, a half-dragon named Craigon Rain—so I created a tumblr blog to obsess about them. At that time, there were very few people in the fandom: gampire-chaz-loves-craigon-rain (Baz), rainchaz61 (Penny), tape-exists-and-im-glad-for-it (Agatha), trixiethelesbianpixie (Trixie), gampirhys (Rhys), so-noted-rainchaz (Niall), and craigonsnowrain (me). And we were like a little family.
But I hated Baz. And he hated me. We would make stupid competitions to see who had the most notes on their posts. I finally gave up because the fucker draws the most brilliant fanart. So I decided to befriend him and make some projects together.
A smile draws in my face as I eat the delicious over-buttered cherry scones. Just the way I like them.
I grab my cellphone to send a thank you message to Baz.
When I’m done with breakfast, I scroll down my dash on tumblr. No happy birthday message. Well, it’s still early. Not for Baz, though, he lives in England, so it must be the afternoon already.
I decide to watch TV for a while—I have nothing planned for today. The fact is that I don’t really have any friends in real life. I don’t know many people here in Nebraska, and the ones I know are complete idiots. So my plan is to stay in all day and read a freaking lot of Rainchaz fanfiction.
After a while, I turn off the TV and go to tumblr on my laptop. Oh, one notification: gampire-chaz-loves-craigon-rain mentioned you in a post.
I open the link and it’s a beautiful doodle of me and Baz, fighting a chimera—as in one of the book’s scenes. I’ve posted some pics of me before, so he has references. The post says:
“Do it. Fucking unleash. Now.” (page 5)
First doodle of you (and me)
Baz
I hit reblog and add:
“I can’t. It doesn’t work like that.”
BTW it’s fucking WONDERFUL!! tysm <3
I’m reading a smutty Rainchaz fic when the doorbell rings again. It’s not that I’m gay, I just love the characters so much. And the smut is great, I love it. The authors in this fandom are just brilliant.
I look at the clock. 7:59 am. It’s still too early for dad to come and I’m not expecting anyone. (Ever.)
I open the door and the same delivery girl brings another packet, this time smaller.
She smiles at me and says, “You know the procedure.” I sign the paper and she leaves with a “See you later!”
“Later,” I reply.
I go back into the apartment and open the packet. It’s a book. The book. A Charmed Life. I go to the first page and, holy shit, it’s signed by the author! It’s so difficult to get a signed copy, I’ve been trying for months, but the author is not very sociable. She wrote:
To Simon Snow,
May you fight your own battles and forge your own wings.
Cather Avery
Wow. It’s perfect.
There is also a card with a note that reads:
“It’s the good things that’ll drive you mad with missing them.” (page 11)
First signed copy of your favourite book.
(I miss you even though I’ve never met you)
Baz
Jesus Christ. This is the best birthday present of my life. I take a picture of it to post it on tumblr and add: @gampire-chaz-loves-craigon-rain I wish you were here so I could hug you into oblivion! Thank you, best b-day present ever <3
I grab my old copy of A Charmed Life—don’t want to ruin this one—and start running through its pages. With all these gifts I feel like re-reading it. Again. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve read it.
It’s a Young Adult fantasy novel about a very special chosen one. A chosen who doesn’t want to be chosen. Craigon Rain is the last half-human, half-dragon alive. He’s never met his mother—that’s where he got the dragon part. His father wants him to take part in a battle that’s not his own. A battle against the vampires. At first Craigon—the half-dragon—obeys his father’s orders until he meets Gampire Chaz, a teenage vampire who finds himself in the same situation as Craigon, but on opposite ends. The two boys fall in love, defying everything that’s been established by their families and it’s precisely their love the thing that saves them all.
I identify myself quite a lot with Craigon Rain—my name is Simon Snow, see the irony. I never met my mother either and I also think my father is the responsible of everything bad that happens in my life.
Baz identifies himself with the antagonist, Gampire Chaz—only because he’s got brown skin like him, and their middle names rhyme. The moron.
My phones buzzes and I leave the book on the table. Another tumblr notification: gampire-chaz-loves-craigon-rain mentioned you in a post.
I open the link. It’s an aesthetic with six pictures of us—separately, duh—and three pictures with vampires and dragons. It’s beautiful. Under the post, Baz has written:
“Strong. Graceful. Fucking ruthless.” (Page 14)
(You are)
8:59 am - First aesthetic of us!
Baz
I hit reblog and add: This is too much Baz. I can’t even!! tysm <3
I can’t believe any of my tumblr friends—we call ourselves raindrops—has wished me a happy birthday yet. Except Baz, sort of. I mean, he hasn’t said it explicitly. Penny lives in India and Agatha in France, I think they should have posted something by now… Now that I think of it I have no clue where Rhys, Niall and Trixie live… Well, Niall is clearly asian but that doesn’t mean that he lives in Asia. I don’t know.
I’m hungry. Thinking too much makes me hungry. Thinking makes me hungry. I go the kitchen to see if there’s anything to eat.
Nothing. Fuck. I’m gonna have to go buy something.
I go to the closest supermarket and buy some popcorn and a peanut butter cup ice cream. Perfect combination for fanfiction reading.
As I climb the steps to my apartment, I bump into the delivery girl from before.
“Hey, watch out,” she scowls and extends me yet another package.
I sign the paper and tell her, “later?”
“Later,” she answers, with a smile.
Once I’m inside, I open the packet—the third one today, and it’s only 9:59 am.
There are some papers inside the packet, a photo of a star, I think?
I read the note that Baz has left:
“Twinkle, twinkle little star!” (page 260)
9:59 am - First star
(These are official documents that prove that this star is named after you and is now yours.)
(Sorry I couldn’t give you the Universe, but this is a star-t.)
(Yes, I knew you wouldn’t understand shit of what the papers say.)
Baz
I’m at a loss of words. What the fuck. It must have cost him a fortune. Well, it must have cost his father a fortune. I guess they can afford it.
I send him a message on tumblr: got the star. what the actual fuck? speechless.
And then I add: why arent u replying to any of my posts? u ok?
Right after reading the first fic, halfway through my ice-cream, the doorbell rings again. 10:59 am. I’m guessing it’s not dad, just yet.
I open the door, and a familiar blond haired girl with the most beautiful brown eyes I’ve ever seen is standing there, looking bored.
“Agatha!” I scream.
“Happy birthday, Simon,” she smiles at me and kisses my cheek. “I’ve come to bring you your next gift.” She shows me what seems like a tattooer box.
I know what Agatha looks like and that she’s a professional tattooer. She’s posted several pics on raindrops faces day. And the rest, too. All except Penny. (She says she can’t be bothered to take a selfie.)
“Agatha!” I shout again. I still can’t believe it. “Come in,” I add.
We sit on the sofa and she gives me the next note. It reads:
“Flames and Blazes—The Art of Burning.” (page 203)
10:59 am - First tattoo
(This is a combined gift from Wellbelove and me)
(I made the design and she’s going to tattoo you)
(You actually asked for it, so it’s no surprise)
Agatha shows me the design. It’s a constellation. And there’s fire surrounding it.
“Simon,” she says. “This is going to hurt.”
“It’s wonderful, Agatha,” I say when it’s finished, looking at my back through the mirror. “You could’ve been gentler, though.”
“I was gentle, Simon, believe me,” she replies.
The doorbell rings again. I think that it has rung more in one day than in nineteen years.
“Lunch,” Agatha says, and goes for the door. She opens it. “Hi, Penny,” she says to the delivery girl.
What?
“Penny?” I ask, stupidly.
“Sorry, Simon, it was too fun seeing you all clueless,” she apologizes.
“I am still clueless,” I retort.
She takes me into her arms and gives me a tight hug. “Happy birthday Simon! Let’s have lunch. Where’s the dining room?”
“Uhm, here, in the living room. I eat in the living room.”
“Oh, your note,” Penelope says as she gives me the card.
“Because roast beef and Yorkshire pudding are fucking real as Rain.” (page 84)
11:59 - First roast beef and Yorkshire pudding from Watford
(Because you haven’t eaten real roast beef if it’s not from England)
(And Watford Restaurant serves the best one)
(Enjoy your meal)
Baz
We sit on the sofa and start eating our lunch. I’m so happy. It’s like we do this everyday. But I miss Baz. I miss him so much. Where the fuck is he?
We finish eating and Penny looks at her watch. “It’s 12:59,” she says. “Dessert is here,” she smiles wickedly.
“Open the door, Simon,” Agatha says.
I go for the door and open it.
Baz.
Baz is here. With a cake in his hands.
Baz is here. And I can’t hug him.
“Baz!” I say, grinning widely.
“Hey, Snow, happy birthday,” he says, and hands the cake to me. There’s a card on it, too.
“But he just stood there for as long as he could stand it. I don’t know how he resisted the pull; I felt like my intestines were going to burst out and wrap around him.” (page 167)
12:59 - First meeting
(I’m here.)
Baz
Baz looks like he’s trying to hide the huge smile that’s drawing in his face. But I can see it.
“Fuck, Snow,” he says, finally giving into the smile. “I wanted this to happen at 1:59 pm, but here you go.”
“What?” I ask
He takes out another card from the back pocket of his jeans and reads it.
“Trying not to crack a smile. Page 517.”
Then, he looks at his watch and adds, “ 1:01 pm, first smile. First real life smile from me to you.”
“The presents are getting better,” I say, trying not to smile from ear to ear.
We eat the cake on the sofa. Baz tried to oppose to it, but I don’t really have a table with nice chairs to sit down and chat while drinking tea. I’ve never had anyone come over.
We talk about our lives. Well, they talk about their lives and I listen. And look at Baz. His eyes are prettier than I had imagined. And oh my God, his skin. It reminds me of toffee. It has such an appetizing color it makes me want to taste it.
After a while, Baz leads us downstairs and into a cab that’s parked in front of my building.
The taxi drives for around twenty minutes before it comes to a stop. “We’ve arrived,” the driver anounces.
Baz tips him and gestures us to follow him. We enter a place called The Wavering Wood Cafe.
“Happy birthday!” Rhys, Niall, Trixie and other fellow raindrops I identify from tumblr say at the same time as I go through the door.
“Jesus,” I say. I’m stupefied. A surprise party. For me.
Baz hands me another card and our fingertips brush. He cracks an undecipherable smile and looks away.
I read the note.
“It feels like a party.” (page 40)
2:59 pm - First birthday party
(First of many to come)
Baz
I’m having a great time. It’s so fun talking to all my tumblr friends in real life. I finally got to meet Keris, Trixie’s girlfriend. She always posts pics of them together. (Penny finds it gross.) (But that’s personal. She doesn’t like Trixie.)
I keep giving glances towards Baz’s direction. I don’t know why I can’t stop staring at him.
Suddenly, my phone buzzes. It’s a tumblr post from Baz.
I open the link. It’s a fic. It’s called Snowbaz. Not Rainchaz. I read the summary:
“Because I’m disturbed.” (page 205)
“Ask anyone,”I think out loud, smiling. And then continue reading the summary:
3:59 pm - First fanfiction about us
Baz
I start reading the fic. It’s all fluff and love until the last part. Smut. I read it all. And love every word. Fuck.
I look at Baz. He’s already staring at me. I step towards him.
“Hey, Snow,” he says. “Ever tried a flaming shot?”
“I’m underaged, you know.”
“Not in my country,” he smirks.
“Okay, fine, give me a shot.”
“A flaming shot, Snow,” Baz says. “Here.”
He hands me a small glass of liquor and sets it on fire with a lighter. He does the same with his glass.
“To us,” he says.
“To us,” I reply.
He blows out the fire and drinks all the liquor. I mimic him. Ugh. I grimace.
“Sharing a room with the person you want most is like sharing a room with an open fire,” Baz starts saying, looking directly into my eyes. “He’s constantly drawing you in. And you’re constantly stepping too close. And you know it’s not good—that there is no good—that there’s absolutely nothing that can ever come of it. But you do it anyway. And then…”
“Then you burn,” I finish. God, his eyes are fire.
“Page 177. 4:59 pm, first flaming drink.”
“First drink,” I correct.
He laughs and orders a couple more.
We have a couple more shots and talk about our favorite AUs. We talk more than we drink.
Suddenly Baz looks at his watch, and then back at me. With the same blazing eyes from before. He stays silent, just looking at me, for a moment. He looks hesitant.
I think he’s going to kiss me.
But he doesn’t. He keeps staring. Some minutes pass. I stare at my watch. 6:10 pm. Where’s my 5:59 pm gift?
“Simon…” Baz starts, flaming shot in his hand.
And then I kiss him.
We kiss for a long time. Then I let go and make him reach for me. And we kiss again.
After a while, we break the kiss and smile at each other. I’m grinning. I can’t help it.
“I was going to say You were the sun, and I was crashing into you,” Baz says. “But I guess the best quote for this is And then HE kisses ME.” He can’t hide his grin, either.
“Page 342,” I say. “6:10 pm, first kiss.”
“Shite, what time is it?” He asks, already looking at his watch.
“6:50 pm,” I answer, moronically.
“Let’s go have dinner, Simon. You and me, only.”
“Okay,” I say. And I follow him to the next room.
There’s a small table for two with two candles. It’s always fire with Baz.
We sit down and he takes out another card.
“You smell like something I’d gladly eat, page 421,” he says, staring at my eyes. “6:59 pm, first romantic dinner.”
I blush.
After dinner, we all go to a pub. It’s called The World of Mages.
It’s great and I’m so happy to be surrounded by friends and the person I like. Baz. That’s new. Liking boys. No, not boys. Only Baz. Wanting to kiss him over and over again.
He takes my hand and says, “Want to dance?”
I nod and smile at him. I’m crap at dancing but I don’t care.
Baz puts his hands on my waist and leads me through the song. Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody.
“I should have known that this is what it would be like to dance with Craigon Rain. Fighting in place. Mutual surrender,” Baz whispers into my ear. “Page 508. 7:59 pm, first dance.”
I place both my arms around his neck and slump into him.
We’re still at the pub. Dancing. Well, at least I’m trying.
“What are we going to do?” I ask him. “You’re going to leave back to England.”
“I know,” he answers with a crack in his voice. “We’ll figure it out, little puff.”
“Baz,” I say. “What’s the next gift? I think I have a better idea.”
“Huh? I was going to take you for a drive…”
“I want to be your boyfriend. Your terrible boyfriend,” I say. “Page 390.”
Baz looks surprised. He places both his hands on my face and kisses me, tenderly. “Of course,” he says. And kisses me again.
“8:59 pm,” I say. “First boyfriend.”
And I kiss him again.
After the pub, we say goodbye to our fellow raindrops. There’s a lot of hugging and kisses on the cheek. God, I’m gonna miss them.
“We have to do this more often,” I say. Even though I’m broke. But I’ll find the money somehow.
They all agree.
Once they’re gone, it’s just me and Baz.
“Let’s go back to my apartment,” I tell him.
“What if your father is there?”
“At this time? Not likely. He must be out, drinking again.”
“Okay,” he says.
We go to my apartment and settle in my room. It’s full of constellations on the walls. Because I love astrology. Hence the tattoo.
“Baz, you haven’t seen it,” I say.
“Seen what?”
“The tattoo, idiot!”
I take my shirt off and show it to him. He places his fingertips on my back and starts tracing it. The touch sends shivers down my spine.
“So beautiful…” Baz says.
I turn around and look at him. I reach for his shirt and take it off. Eyes locked on his. I close the distance and kiss him. And then my hands go down. I can’t stop myself. I kiss every spot of his dark olive skin. And I want more. And I can see that he wants, too.
So I take more. I take it all. And I give it all. To him. To Baz.
“Because we match,” I say after a while. My head is resting on Baz’s chest. Our fingers laced. “Page 420.” I look at my watch. “10:58 pm, first time.”
“When did you start giving yourself birthday presents?” Baz asks.
“I think it was when I did this,” I answer. And I kiss him.
“God, I love you, Simon Snow.”
“I love you, Baz.”
“Fell in love, didn’t you?” He smiles.
“10:59 pm, first I love you,” I say.
I go with Baz to the airport. I’m sad that he has to go. But I’m happy that he came. And he’s going to move to the States with his aunt, Fiona, next year. So I just have to wait for a year. And I’m going to visit him soon. Maybe for his birthday.
He looks at me with watery eyes. He holds my hand so hard it hurts a little.
“I’ll come to England, in a couple of months,” I reassure him. “And then you’ll come back. We’ll be seeing each other a lot. You won’t get rid of me that easily.”
“When I come to live in America with Fiona, I’m going to haunt your door day and night.”
There’s a shout for all the passengers of the flight to Southampton Airport.
Baz kisses me, before letting go.
“Goodbye, Simon,” he says. “This is a first and a last goodbye. Because the next time I see you, I won’t let you go for anything in the world.”
“Go on, then,” I say. “Carry on, Baz.”
