-> headcanons, how they tell you they love you for the first time, part two!
characters: sakusa, iwaizumi, x fem!reader
warnings: fem reader, ✨healthy relationships✨, oikawa being oikawa
wc: 3.6K
a/n: WOAH okay uh did NOT expect that last set to be that popular,,,, y'all thirsty for love huh? me too anyway i thought id do a part two since i honestly really enjoyed writing the first set and my brain is vibrating with ✨thoughts✨ and seeing how much love it got really made me feel how i haven't felt in so long, so thank you! maybe ill turn this into a series so lemme know if u wanna see someone specific👀👀😏 also sorry for like posting and then dipping again lmao thats just my social media brand i have the attention span of a fucking worm
read part 1 here!
Sakusa Kiyoomi
okok i know its like common for sakusa to be shown as not interested in PDA (in private or public) unless hes feeling "needy"
BUT i believe that after a few weeks, maybe months if he's still unsure, he would definitely be much more comfortable with PDA
like, if its been a long time and your both serious about it and not just in a relationship to be in a relationship he starts to notice your routine
he notices the changes you make so that he's comfortable and so that you can be close to him without him being worried about icky yicky germy wormys (someone take away my thought privileges)
so now that he knows that you take care of your hygiene and exactly what you do for it, slowly he's wrapping an arm around you in 30° heat while you're both sweating
slowly he's "forgetting" his mask in the car for dates
slowly, but surely, he understands that a little bit of exposure, isn't a bad thing.
"kiyoomi?" your voice brought sakusa's eyes to yours where he could see the concern behind them.
"are you okay y/n?"
you'd decided, after three weeks of intense training and barely seeing your boyfriend, that you wanted just one day and one night with him. just the two of you, you know he'd never admit it, but he needed a break.
after atsumu decided to try out some new plays that didn't start off to well, sakusa had been silently groaning everytime he had to reach for something. he was excellent at making sure he wasn't overworking himself, and he wasn't, its just that the human body is an absolute wonder, and not in a good way. sometimes things that should have mildly injured you, left you with a tiny scrape, or a bruise or a very quick-to-fade red mark, and sometimes you drop a phone on your face and break your fucking jaw.
you offer him a gentle smile that completely washes away the concern in your eyes.
"im fine omi! but you," you reach your hands up to rest on both sides of his face turning his head side to side, studying it intensly.
"you're looking a little pale. and possibly grey."
"how do you mean y/n-chan?"
for such an intelligent man sometimes he really could be a himbo.
"i mean that i think you might be sick, baby."
sakusa stared blankly at you, as if he couldn't fathom the possibility of 'himself, sick?'
"omi? kiyoomi!" you nabbed his attention, "i think you're sick, and we best go home."
"but-" he started, but you were quick to cut him off knowing exactly what he was about to say.
"kiyoomi, it's inevitable. even if you were the worlds most decked out with ppe, and the worlds leading force in hygeine, you'd still end up catching a cold at least once. that's just how the world works baby. and don't worry about the date, all i want is to spend some time with you."
you ended up practically dragging your sad little puppy of a boyfriend back up the complex stairs and into his unit before settling him on the couch and getting to work.
"ill get you some water, you just sit here and relax. i don't want to think about what would happen if those dumbasses didnt have you there next week, bokuto and hinata would probably crack their skulls!" your attempt at a little light hearted humour helped sakusa forget for a moment, but he was quick to go back to not understanding how he was sick.
"thank you." he took the glass from your hand and rested it between his legs, when he noticed the rubber gloves you had clutched at your side. he knew what they were for, those were his cleaning gloves.
"what are you doing? you can't stay you'll..." he paused. "you'll get sick too."
"i'll be fine omi-omi! you just relax and drink lots of water, ill take care of this." you turned towards the wall with a soft smile before muttering, "ill take care of you."
sakusa watched you clean, the bucket full of diluted bleach, the duster, a cloth, and his cleaning gloves. he loved the way that they were too big for you, the way you kept having to pull them up every so often to keep them on. he loved the way that everytime he finished his glass of water, you were right there to fill it back up.
you don't even remember seeing, or hearing him lift himself from his spot on the couch and make his way over to where you were humming and covering the counters in the diluted solution. you felt a pair of big arms wrap around you, a chin on your shoulder and a kiss on your cheek.
"thank you, y/n. i love you."
thank god he caught a cold, or he might never have realized just how lucky he was.
Iwaizumi Hajime
family man
is a family man but not just ANY family man
yes, it's important to him that you like and respect his parents and vice versa
but its just slightly more important to him that you get along with his friends, his found family because im a SUCKER for the classic lilo n stitch trope
he knows that many people say that its his life and he doesn't need anyones approval etc.
but iwaizumi believes different, he believes that he doesn't need approval in the literal sense but rather approval through watching you interact with his friends and his family and how you do your best to learn about them and make time for them, even though you dont have to
and he thinks it's absolutely enthralling
the way your eyes light up when you see that book his mom has been talking about wanting to read and picking it up with no hesitation
how you're able to almost flawlessly keep up with issei and takahiro's antics while also making sure they don't go too far, something even iwaizumi struggles with
and most importantly, how effortlessly you connect with his childhood best friend.
there were many things that Iwaizumi Hajime enjoyed, volleyball, athletics, godzilla of course, spending time with three dumbasses (but he’ll never admit that) and a little while ago, he added you to that list.
you were so effortlessly able to connect with his team, his friends, and his family but most importantly, the way you were able to connect with Oikawa brought a smile to his face.
“oh, iwa-chan~, what are you admiring?” there he went again, Iwa thought, Tohru Oikawa’s dumb smirk and hyper awareness of his team, both on and off court. how he wated to head-butt him in the face. but, he showed restraint. after all, he wouldn’t want loserkawa to use you as a human shield from his head. so, he ignored the urge. but it passed as soon as he saw tohrus arm arond your shoulders, crossed feet and leaning on you ever so slightly while he took a few occasional swigs from his water.
and just like that, the incredible restraint vanished like morning mist.
you could practically see the steam coming off of his hot skin, and the vein popping out of his forehead, when you noticed what had him so heated. “trashykawa get your filthy hands off of my girlfriend!”
“excuse me!” he pouted, “my hands are clean and tailored! just like any responsible setters would be!” he stuck his lip out farther and gave you his irresistable puppy-dog eyes. “y/n-chan, i’m not filthy! am i?” he whined.
and, as the word suggests, his look was truly irresistable and you stumbled over your words. “n-no! of course not tohru!”
“see, iwa-chan! y-n thinks i’m squeaky clean!” his dumb smirk appeared again, and rather than continue with flirtykawas obvious games, Iwa opted for the less violen approach.
“don’t flatter yourself, dirtykawa. she’s just being nice.” he growled. “I’m done for the day, i have a project due. y-n.” he offered his hand to you like the gentleman he is not forcing you to take it, but the look in his eyes told you that he wanted you too.
“see you later, tohru!” you gave him a quick hug and intertwined your fingers with iwa’s.
now, technically, girls aren’t allowed in the boys locker room but since it’s after hours and just you and iwaizumi no one cared. to be fair though, literally no one knew except the team so, whatever you didn’t complain you got to watch yout ultra ripped boyfriend change. quality time. you thought, when you noticed him mid-change with his shirt over his head, resting on his arms. as any good girlfriend would, despite the devil on your shoulder, you came up behind him placing your hands on his seriously broad shoulders. taking notice of the tension, you started to work at the muscles. your care was quickly rewarded with a quiet sigh, and relaxed shoulders.
“hajime?” you continued rubbing at the tight fibers, “are you alright? you’re usually the one telling me im holding too much tension.” you giggled and he turned to face you placing one hand against the side of your face.
“hajime?” it came out shaky and worried.
“i’m okay,” he smiled “it’s just,” hesitation. he was never one to hesitate.
“i know i have no right to be but seeing oikawa so clingy with you it just, i dont know, it really gets to me i guess? he, just, he gets all the girls, all the attention, and i don’t want to-” you stopped him.
“sweetheart, it’s okay to be jealous or upset i’m not going to be angry, you have a right to your feelings. I understand how you feel, i never mean to flirt with him, if i ever have, i mean i don’t know, you know how bad of a flirt i am,” he chuckles at that. “it’s just that i know how important he is to you and you are so, so important to me and i want to be able to understand whats important to you, so you never have to choose between us, because that wouldn’t be fair. i love you, hajime iwaizumi, and everything about you.”
you expected him to be shocked, hell, he thought he would be shocked when or if you said it, but he wasn’t. and that’s exactly how he knew what to say next.
“i love you too, y/n l/n.” pressing a soft kiss against your lips.
“geez, it only took you two a century and forever.” someone snarked.
hajime chucked a towel at him “get out assykawa!” and he did, he bolted through the door laughing like the demon matchmaker he thought he was.

Walls Could Talk | Chapter Two
a/n: sorry this chapter took so long! writer’s block is a bitch 😩✌
Summary: Steve and Peggy's search brings them to Paris - where they happen to meet up with an old friend.
Warnings: an intense makeout session/implied sexual content (it’s not smut, i haven’t decided if I’m putting actual smut in this fic)
Wordcount: 1.5k (unedited, also I'm sorry it's so short 🙃)
AO3 | prev chapter | next chapter (coming soon!)
ᴏᴄᴛ 𝟸𝟿, 𝟷𝟿𝟺𝟿
ᴏxғᴏʀᴅ, ᴇɴɢʟᴀɴᴅ
Steve wakes up in a cold sweat, bolting upright in bed. Was he still dreaming? Was this...was this real?
He gazes at Peggy - to make sure she was there, that all of this wasn't a mere fantasy, who begins to stir.
So, not a dream then, at least. His heart is racing, his mind buzzing and yet still confused and his breathing erratic. She's speaking to him, saying something, and he isn't quite listening, his heart thundering his ears. Adrenaline surges through his veins.
“I’m...I’m sorry, Peg. I didn’t mean to wake you up,” he whispers. His pulse was still racing.
Lightning illuminates the room for a split second and he can see the sympathy in her eyes.
"It's quite alright, Darling. Will you tell me what's wrong?" She asks, trailing her fingers through his hair.
"I...I don't- I don't remember much," he admits. "It was just...some stuff from the past...or, future..." he could almost laugh at that if he was in a better mood.
She nods sympathetically. "Is there anything I can do to help?"
He drinks in her appearance, nodding slightly. He presses his lips against hers softly.
He kisses her, gently and imploringly at first.
His one hand softly trails down her back, and he notices her sharp intake of breath when his hand ghosts over her lower back.
"This hurt?" he asks.
She nods stiffly. "I do believe I forgot to tell you with everything that happened tonight. I had a bit of a scuffle in the restroom with a Hydra agent. She slammed me against the sink," Peggy explains.
An idea forms in Steve's head; a single minded goal to make her forget.
He would make the only thing on her mind be him.
Wordlessly, he smiles and dips his head towards her neck, brushing his lips against it. His teeth graze against a sensitive spot on her neck and she makes a soft "Oh,"
His hands go to rest against either of her thighs. He pulls back, pupils blown.
“Steve,” she whispers. She lifts her hips in a silent invitation.
He leans down to kiss her, his lips against hers, and she's already breathless. He doesn't want to rush things, but he can't resist her.
Her hand slides down his back, and she lets out a soft moan against his mouth. His hands trail up her shirt, he can feel the goosebumps on her skin. He kisses her neck, and she can feel his hot breath against her skin.
"God, you're so beautiful. I love you," he whispers.
"I love you too," she replies.
He pulls her in for a desperate kiss once again, pulling her close.
—
The rain came and went, and with it sunshine followed.
“Peggy. Peggy, wake up,” is the first thing Peggy is greeted with in the morning.
Peggy groans, rolling over in an effort to ignore him. “No, not now,” she mutters, burying her face in the pillow.
Peggy feels weight on the bed as Steve sits down next to her. She tries in vain to ignore him.
"Oh, c'mon now, Peg. It's a new day, it's time to get up," he says.
“You are far too cheerful considering how early it is,” Peggy complains, shielding her eyes from the light pouring in from the blinds.
“...Peggy, it’s eleven in the morning.”
Peggy groans, glancing at the clock as if to make sure he’s right. “Point withstanding, you’re still too cheerful.”
“Somebody woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning,” Steve teases, narrowly missing a pillow flung haphazardly at him.
“Do shut up, Steve.”
He snickers.
Peggy yawns, stretching her sleep-infused joints. "Where are we going, again?"
"Word is our target's in Paris,” Steve replies. “Or at the very least, someone important is.”
Peggy hums, sitting up. The blanket wrapped around her falls off, revealing her bruised back.
"Jesus, Peg. Have you seen your back? That looks like it hurts," Steve notes.
"Yes, thank you for that insightful observation."
"I just mean- do you want ice or something?"
Peggy shrugs nonchalantly. "It doesn’t quite hurt. I can deal with it, I’ve faced worse."
“To be fair, you are the woman who fell asleep standing up in a trench.”
“Exactly,” Peggy winks. She stands up, beginning to sift through her suitcase. “So tell me, Steve. When’s our train leaving?”
—
ᴘᴀʀɪs, ғʀᴀɴᴄᴇ
A few hours later, they arrive at their dingy, rundown hotel just outside of Paris. The lobby smells like bleach and old carpet, and a radio plays a somber, mellow jazz tune.
Peggy clears her throat, waiting for the receptionist to acknowledge them.
The receptionist does not, however, care to notice.
“Can we have a room, please?” Peggy asks the woman at the front desk.
The woman hardly looks up from her magazine. “Name?”
“Carver,” Peggy answers automatically before Steve can.
The receptionist takes a long, seemingly never ending sip of her tea. Finally, she says. “Take the elevator to the third room, first one on the left. Here’s your key,” the woman says, sounding as disinterested as she possibly can. “Enjoy your stay,” she adds dryly.
Peggy eyes her warily. There was something a bit...off, about that woman.
Perhaps it was just her imagination.
They make their way to the elevator, and Steve finally breaks the silence. “So...is it just me or was there something weird about her? I mean, she could’ve just been a disgruntled employee, but…” he trails off, scratching the back of his neck.
Peggy hums. “No, I happen to agree. Though, perhaps we were just inconveniencing her by making her do her job.”
The smile fades from her face. “Stop,” Peggy whispers. She tilts her head toward the door, which was ajar. She clutches her gun in her purse.
Steve snorts. “Maybe,”
She laughs right along with him, but she pauses abruptly outside their door.
It could be the maid...but they haven’t even gotten into the room once.
Silently, the two stalk toward the door. The smell of smoke escapes from the room when Steve nudges the door open.
Which, in both of their experiences, usually did not happen to be a good thing.
In the chair in the corner, there sat...
Howard Stark.
A collective groan escapes the couple.
“Howard, must you break into our hotel room?” Peggy scolds, turning on the light.
“We thought you were an intruder.” Steve adds.
Howard smirks, taking a long drag of his cigar. “Technically, I am. But don’t you kids worry - I bring a peace offering. By peace offering, I mean I’m inviting you to stay in my Paris apartment instead of this dump,” Howard gestures loosely. “I mean, I don’t think this building even has heat.”
Steve shrugs. “Wouldn’t it be better to stay somewhere inconspicuous?”
“That’s what I was thinking,” Peggy agrees, her arms crossed.
Howard sniffs. “Okay, fine, don’t accept my extremely generous offer to let you stay at my apartment. I know when I’m not wanted. Just know I’ll remember that in the summer when you want to come over because I have air conditioning and you don’t.”
Peggy rolls her eyes. “Quit the melodramatics, Howard. We’ll stay with you,”
Steve wraps an arm around her. “Yeah, we- wait, we will?”
“...What? This building doesn’t have heat, and quite frankly I enjoy summer visits to Howard’s house.”
“Attagirl, Peg.” Howard beams. “I’ll meet you two in the lobby,”
—
Later, the trio eats lunch at Howard’s apartment.
"-you are not funny, Howard." Peggy informs him, pointing at him with her fork. "You could've at least feigned innocence."
"Innocent? If you looked up "innocent' in the dictionary, you'd see my picture on it," Howard says defensively.
Peggy snorts at that. "Oh, please, Howard. With your history you could easily father a small country,"
Howard grimaces. "Eugh, kids hate me. Plus, who has time to tend to a baby all the time? I mean sure, kids probably aren't annoying when they're...late teenagers? But for most of their lives, kids just seem so clingy and needy."
Steve picks at his plate absentmindedly, reminded of a conversation he had with Tony.
"Clearly, you must've met a different version of my father. He was cold. He was calculating. He never told me he loved me, he never even told me he liked me."
The sound of Peggy’s voice brings him back to reality. "...That's because they're children, Howard. Babies aren't self-sufficient from birth. Do you expect them to come out of the womb ready for rocket science?"
"Well, thank you for absolutely shattering my argument, Agent Carter." Howard mutters, downing his coffee. Deciding to change the subject in order to deflect attention off of himself, he says, "Steve, you still with us?"
Steve snaps to attention. "I, uh, yeah. I was just daydreaming, I guess."
Peggy makes a mental note to ask Steve about that later.
"Penny for your thoughts?" Howard asks.
Steve shrugs noncommittally, continuing to eat with much less gusto than before. "Just thinking about our mission,”
Peggy eyes him carefully, choosing to say nothing but clearly knowing something was wrong. In due time, she would ask.
In due time hopefully meant whenever Howard left the room.

lmao so like i was listening to a bunch of james bond songs bc they’re dramatic and spy-ey right (cough cough tho a song that fits the general tone of the fic would be "the world is not enough" by garbage)?? and then there’s absolutely none of that in this chapter lmao. sorry if this chapter was boring compared to last one but i mean we can’t have constant action in the fic, silly goose.
also can we talk about how it took me like 8 DAYS TO WRITE THIS and it’s this short i’m sorry ajsjdfkgjjklk 😶✌

uHm if you do these and if you want to do it I’d love a bnha matchup <3?
• my name is Aubri, I’m bi but prefer MHA boys tbh. I go by she/her, too.
• I’m a very Gryffindor person. (Sorry if you don’t know Harry Potter - 😖)
• I’m a June cancer, and I have ADHD and anxiety. My anxiety can be literally crippling somedays, but it’s gotten better overtime.
• I’m a bit of a class clown and usually just a clown 🤡 but that’s irrelevant. My teachers all hate me but like school-wise I do well so we have a love and mostly hate relationship 🤧
• I’m usually the ‘entertaining’ friend, in elementary the popular kids would invite me to play games with them because, “you’re funny” and it was like the biggest achievement ever 😭👍🏻 then they’d ignore me but that’s another therapy session
• I’m usually made fun of by people for being ‘weird’ and ‘insane’. Like all through elementary everyone thought I’d be a criminal when I grew up JUST BECAUSE I HAD UNDIAGNOSED ADHD - I hate it here 😐🦶🏻
• I’ve always been super into crime stories/true crime (where my anxiety comes from, I’m always worried about a pesky serial killer just killing me. It’s usually being kidnapped tho lmao) so I knew and still know like all these murder facts and sometimes I’d just randomly be like;
“Hey did you know it takes 12 hours and 2 days to dissolve a body in acid?”
or
“If you bury a dead deer over a dead body you buried deep in the ground, when police dogs sniff it and people dig they’ll just think it was the deer and won’t dig any farther.”
• So maybe people had a reason to be scared of me and think I’ll be a criminal someday, i dunno.
• I love love love reading and writing, and also debating. The things I’ve wanted to be when I grow up are basically: Dog shelter worker, actress, FBI agent, politician, and a writer. But usually I just want to do something that makes a positive impact on people. Like i wanted to be an FBI agent to solve crimes for people. I wanted to be a politican so I could actually help a lot of people. The entertainment industry also seemed like a way to make people happy. Idk, but then I decided I couldn’t be a politican at 10 because they were all corrupt and to be one I would have to be too. 😫🤌🏻 we love some good childhood angst
• the only subjects I’ve ever excelled at are ELA and Social Studies aka History, and Math I can’t do to save my life. ELA comes easy for me and I usually don’t have to work that hard and/or get too stressed over it. But I always get the meanest teachers for some reason. For example, one time I did my final essay for like 30% of my grade in 30 minutes the day it was due and I got an A+ 🦟🦗🦟🦗
• Uhhh id describe myself as a pretty loyal friend, I’m a ride or die type of girl. A story from my childhood that summarizes it pretty well is when I was in 2nd grade my friend wet her pants and she didn’t want to go to the nurse for it alone so I peed my pants so I could go with her and she wouldn’t have to be alone. Like, you know, a professional problem solver
• and I have genuinely attacked people for fucking with my friends but don’t snitch pls 🕳🏃♀️💨
• But also just anyone, people at my school tend to come to me with their problems for me to either help solve them by reasoning, or just to confront the other person like the bad bleep I am 😈😈
• I also have a huge daydreaming problem, it’s literally maladaptive daydreaming. So paired with my ADHD I don’t get shit done like ever.
• I have really high empathy levels I guess, like I always say hi to everyone I see on the street, especially if they look sad 😔 I’ve done it ever since I was a little kiddo.
• My fashion sense is very much a preppy/alt style. I wear those ripped tights and fishnets, I also have the MOST BIZARRE JEWELRY- like who allowed me to buy the gummy worm glittery earrings, hmmm???????? and those Mary Janes???????
• But I love crew necks and pleated skirts so I always obide by the National “hoes dont get cold” policy 🇺🇸😫🦅
• I wanna move somewhere someday, I don’t want to stay in America for very long
• I can speak Latin, French, and my native language which is English.
• My music taste varies, but my all-time favorite artists who all of their music they’ve ever put out has been my favorites are, Billie Eilish, Melanie Martinez, and Conan Gray.
• I no-joke have a sign in my front yard that says;
In ✍️ this ✍️ house we ✍️ don’t ✍️ worship Jesus ✍️ but instead ✍️ Melanie ✍️ Martinez
• My favorite shows are MHA (duh), The Promised Neverland, and Malcolm in The Middle.
• and I’m not going to tell you what I prefer in a partner, because that ruins the fun 😤
• but I will say I cannot be friends with someone who doesn’t really make me laugh. Like I’m used to doing most of the talking in convos but if you’re just boring I’m sorry it’s nothing personal but no thanks 😐✌🏻
• About my physical appearance, I have fluffy n curly brown hair, but when it’s in the sunlight it looks sort of brown but golden yk?? It’s shoulder length :) I have bleach blonde streaks in the front. I like wearing eyeliner most days, too. I’m pretty average size/ on the skinnier side. Kinda high key inscure abt my body bc I got flat shamed in elementary EVEN THOUGH I HAVE TIDDIES NOW- whatever 😤🙄. I also have crystal type blue eyes, and I do have fairly big eyes. But, like, not weirdly big. A good big. My cheekbones are ALWAYS PRESENT so sometimes I get called a Tim Burton character but it’s cool ig ☠️☠️ oh and I’m kinda short. I’m 5’3, even though my doctor said I’d be 5’7. I feel like I was either tricked by the doctor or someone just stole my destined height while I was asleep. It’s probably cause I didn’t keep an eye out for Selener 👁 😔😔
• I’m a definite night owl, like all of my energy comes at night which really sucks cuz I can’t do much since everyone else is asleep.
• My love language is touch starved so I’ve never figured it out ✌🏻😗🔫
• but I am an attention whore so idk 😏
• I’m a huge introvert with social anxiety. It isn’t as bad as it used to be cuz I used to not be able to like go to restaurants but now I’m much better.
• I’m a huge history person, mostly like sad history LMFAO. Uh but a lot of my hyperfixations have been on history. Some examples are The Roman Empire, Julius Caesar himself, Anne Frank, The Titanic, the Black Plauge, Helen Keller, Marie Curie, Slavery in the US, Joan of Arc, and just a lot more. I always love talking about these things if someone would let me ramble to them but no one ever does 😖 it also got to a point where for all these subjects I’d go to the library and try to find a book on them but usually I’d either have already read it or I’d read it and know all the information.
• I’m super into Greek Mythology, I have 7 books filled with the stories, I’m going to Greece maybe this summer to see it’s history, and named my hamster Aphrodite but we call her Aphie. I also will talk about this forever and ever if you let me.
• My favorite color is yellow, my favorite food is literally nothing I never have an appetite, my favorite planet is Saturn, favorite song is Tag Your It by Melanie Martinez atm but it changes like everyday.
• Music is a huge safe-space for me if I’m feeling down or having a panic attack. It calms me down n is overall my coping mechanism 💃🏻💃🏻
• Biggest fear is spiders, even looking at one gives me a panic attack and I cannot sleep at all for that night, adding to my insomniac ass 🧎🏻♂️🏌️♀️
• I’m mature for my age, I don’t exactly like hanging around kids my age and I get along better with older crowds.
• i don’t like conventional dates, (I PROMISE IM NOT TRYING TO SOUND ‘QUIRKY’ AHAHA) I kind of like having a best-friend type partner more so dates that aren’t as romantic as like the movies or a fancy restaurant suite me better. My dream date is playing Monopoly on my bedroom floor 🦧
• Also I hate getting gifts. End of story. If someone gets me a gift like awe that’s nice but never again, I’d prefer to get you one. Especially in a romantic partner 😐 i keep a journal of my friends’ interests and hobbies so I can get them the perfect gifts for their bdays and Christmas’s. Been doing this ever since 4th grade.
• Though I don’t have much actual experience with relationships🧍🏻♀️
• I’m a huge believer in ‘family isn’t blood, it’s who you make it’ because I have a pretty shitty family life and my childhood has been trash. My friends are my family to me.
• Also if my friends don’t like my romantic partner ✨ GOODBYE ✨. Sorry girlie, bros before hoes 🦨💨

love u, hate u.
chapter two: blood by day6
a chaptered fanfic about a love-hate relationship between you and monsta x's shownu. each chapter is based on some of my favourite summer songs! were getting to chapter two already, this lovely song by deishiks :) also excuse me, it's not as long as i hoped it would be, but i really wanted to get a new chapter up for you guys as soon as possible, so enjoy!
links to previous chapters:
prologue: strawberries and cigarettes
chapter one: back to you
-
tw: foul language, angst
-
"y/n- that's not what i meant! you know this!" changkyun said with his eyebrows turned down in confusion. "god- whenever i'm with you i have to be careful with every word i say..! one word off and your voice already rises.." he said under his breath in frustration.
"excuse me? im chang-fucking-kyun, don't you dare pull that victim card right here when you were enjoying a slip and slide just now!" you yelled, tears now flowing down your face harder than ever before.
-
since changkyun had been non-stop working on music lately, you decided to surprise changkyun at his studio with some cold drinks and some fresh snacks. you already knew how he'd react when he would see you all dressed up and nice, surprising him with his favourite snacks and drinks, sharing them while he lets you listen to the new tracks he made.
he'd say something along the lines of "thank you so much for thinking of me when you had other things to worry about", in which you'd tell him he was stupid for thinking anything was more important than him.
the happy train of thoughts in which you playing scenarios in your head got interrupted by people walking past you in the hallways of the starship building, talking loudly into their phones as they had frowns on their wrinkled faces.
"hey..! i'm here to see changkyun, my name's y/f/n y/l/n, i'm his girlfriend" you told the receptionist, in which she nodded and gave you permission to go to his studio. "will you be okay with those bags? they looks quite heavy.." she added, making you shake your head.
"i'll be fine miss, i promise, thank you though, and have a nice day!" you said, walking towards changkyun's studio.
once you got to there , however, there was only one thing blocking you from seeing your boyfriend again: this stupid fucking door and it's password lock.
since changkyun loves his 'me-time' spent naked behind his pc, he installed a lock on his studio door so nobody has to bleach their eyes after walking in on him yelling at his game, in his naked glory.
you couldn't remember him ever telling you the password, you really didn't know, but knocking would ruin the surprise. you wanted to walk up to him and kiss his head to grab his attention, only to hand him a doughnut and a can of soda to start with. so here we go, guessing the password. five tries should be enough right? well, it had to be, otherwise the lock shuts down and you trap changkyun inside his studio until people come to rescue him for once and for all.
so... what was the password again..?
maybe his birthday..?
buzz!
your birthday?
buzz!
monsta x's debut date?
buzz!
your anniversary date..?
yet again.., buzz!
'come on,' you thought. 'there's gotta be something..'. you remembered he once laughed while entering his password, so maybe it's something funny! knowing, changkyun he'd go for...
80082
beep!
of course. put 80082 in a calculator, and what does it spell?
boobz.
you chuckled at yourself before letting yourself in, only to drop the bags on the floor again. before you knew it, you were crying- no, sobbing. your hands had left the paper handles of the bags and they had risen to your face, covering up your mouth in pure surprise.
"what-.. the actual fuck- changkyun.." is what you managed to get out, as the girl on his lap let out a pitched whimper while she got up faster than the speed of sound. "who the fuck do you think you are..?!" you said to the girl with the intention of screaming. your voice gave up on you, however, and gave your words the volume of a whisper.
"nobody- y/n, just a gir-"
"just..? a girl?" you repeated, closing the door behind you and clenching your jaw. "then what am i? just a girl, too? a toy? some little plaything you found on the street? what am i to you, changkyun?" you asked as he tried to cover himself up to the best of his ability. you'd seen him naked before, that wasn't the problem here. to see him with another girl made the experience of being naked in front of you so, so different.
"this- girl, if that's what we can even call her, can get the fuck out of your studio."
"i don't know who you are," the girl started, "but i knew him first, you trashy ass bitch! i fucked him first!" the girl yelled at you, now pushing you toward the exit, the impact of your shoulders hitting the door getting softened by the foam pads on the wall.
"changkyun-.. you have two seconds to start explaining, or i'm leaving" you said, taking your bags with drinks and snacks in advance. whatever he was going to do, you were going to consume all of this food and booze by yourself tonight. "for good" you added, already reaching for the door handle.
"one" you mumbled, pushing the handle down, watching the expression of his face get more blurry by the tears blocking your vision.
"..two" you whispered, opening the door and smacking it close behind you.
walking off with firm steps didn't help you bumping into people who were on their way to see what was the fuss about. "y/n..! y/n, give me a few minutes of your time, please!" he shouted, running after you in nothing more than his underwear.
once he caught up to you, he placed a hand on your shoulder. you shrugged the hand that had touched that nasty girl off immediatly, your hair hanging in front of your damp face. "what the fuck do you want from me?!" you yelled, coming to a stop. "all you want to see is blood! happy now? you got what you wanted, just end things already so i can move on!"
"y/n- listen.. i can explain..! sometimes i- i get bored" he started, but you interrupted him without shame.
"bored?!" you responded.
and thats where the two of you are now.
"y/n- that's not what i meant! you know this!" changkyun said with his eyebrows turned down in confusion. "god- whenever i'm with you i have to be careful with every word i say..! one word off and your voice already rises.." he said under his breath in frustration.
"excuse me? im chang-fucking-kyun, don't you dare pull that victim card right here when you were enjoying a slip and slide just now!" you yelled, tears now flowing down your face harder than ever before.
"there can only be one." you stated, clenching your jaw once more so you wouldn't break out into tears. "choose one, changkyun. it's me or her."

Silent Date
This is a late birthday present for @rainymae523 ! Happy Birth!
Summary: Wilford finally managed to ask JJ on a date and all goes well except for when JJ is given a braille menu and the waitress starts yelling.
Silent Date
“Should I wear the blue one or the red one? Maybe the green one to match his hair. But then I’d look like Christmas on bleach because of my hair. Would orange stick out too much? I don’t even know what shirt I’m wearing, why am I fussing over bow-ties? What do you think, Dark? Dark? Dark!”
“I’m listening.” Dark mumbled as he typed on his phone, sitting on Wilford’s desk.
“Listening my ass.” Wilford huffed, taking Dark’s phone out of his hands.
“I was using that.” Dark said, holding his hand out.
“I need your help!” Wilford whined, placing the phone back in Dark’s hand. “And you texting Anti isn’t doing that.”
“How do you know that? I could be asking for his opinion.” Dark went back to his typing.
“Anti has literally zero sense of fashion. He thinks he can wear sneakers to a business casual affair. Sneakers? For business casual?” Dark finally lowered his phone.
“You’re going to a casual restaurant.” Dark said in a flat voice.
“With Jamesy!” Wilford corrected. “As a date!”
“You’ve been on dates before, why are you so worried about this one?” Dark asked, phone buzzing in hand as Wilford went over to his closet.
“Because it’s with James.” Wilford pulled out one of his shirts.
“We’ve known him for years, again, why are you so worried?” Dark looked at his new message and chuckled a little.
“Because I’ve been wanting this date for years.” Wilford admitted, throwing the shirt on his bed. He looked at Dark and saw a large smirk and a raised brow on the other man’s face. “Shut up.”
“I didn’t say anything.”
“You didn’t need to.” Wilford grumbled and went over to his dresser.
“Oh, the lucky red, you really want this date to go well.” Dark teased when Wilford pulled out some underwear.
“Again, shut up.” Wilford tossed the underwear on the bed as well and started going through a different drawer for pants.
“When you get back, you have to dish.” Dark said in a silly voice, laughing a little when Wilford just looked at him. “You did the same thing to me and Anti. I can have some fun too.”
“Well, if I do end up like you and Anti. I’ll be sure not to be texting James instead of paying attention to my friend.” Wilford huffed, going back over to the bed with a pair of slacks.
“I’m paying attention.” Dark protested. “I can tell that you really want this date to go well since you’re wearing your, and I quote, ‘pants that make your ass look like two perfect apples’.”
“They do…” Wilford mumbled.
“Alright. I’ll be the supportive friend.” Dark pocketed his phone and got off of the desk. He went over to Wilford and patted his back. “You’re going to be just fine. Everything is going to be okay and if it doesn’t work out, you two will still be great friends. He already said yes to a date, he obviously doesn’t hate you.”
“Thanks, Dark.” Wilford said with a smile.
“Don’t tell anyone I was nice.” Dark jokingly threatened.
“I wouldn’t dream of it.” Wilford chuckled.
x~x~x
“Hi, Wilford.” JJ greeted, using Wilford’s sign name by holding up three fingers to make a ‘w’ and tapping it to his chest two times.
“Hey, Jamesy.” Wilford greeted back, resisting the urge to run his hand through his hair, he spent too much time getting it perfect and by him, he meant Dark. “You haven’t been waiting long, have you?” JJ shook his head in response and looped his arm through Wilford’s, chuckling silently when Wilford’s cheeks turned the same shade of pink as his hair.
“Hello, gentlemen, is it just you two?” The woman behind a little podium asked.
“Yep.” Wilford answered while JJ got distracted by a picture on the wall, trying to read all of the phrases on it.
“Table or booth?” The woman asked.
“I don’t care.” Wilford said, giving JJ a light tug on the arm to get his attention.
“Table. Please.” JJ signed.
“Table, please.” Wilford translated, raising a brow when the woman went ‘oh’ and sat one of the menus down to get a different one.
“Right this way.” The woman said before leading Wilford and JJ into the dining area. “Let me know if you need anything, your waitress should be right with you.”
“Thank you.” Wilford said as he and JJ sat down at the table. “So, Dark looked into this place and said that they have amazing bean burgers.” Wilford said, flipping open his menu and JJ did the same. “Is something wrong?” He asked when he noticed the look on JJ’s face.
“Read. Can’t.” JJ said before holding up his menu to show Wilford that it was blank with bumps all over it.
“Is that braille?” Wilford ran his hand over the menu, the texture familiar to the books Host read when he didn’t want to use his narrating. “She must have grabbed the wrong menu.” Wilford said. “You can read off mine” He added and turned his menu around.
“Thank you.” JJ smiled.
“Anyways, they do this really cool thing where you can replace the meat of any burger with a bean patty.” Wilford pointed at the burger section.
“F-R-E-N-C-H S-O-U-P burger?” JJ pointed at the menu as well.
“That actually sounds really good.” Wilford said after reading the description. “I might get it.”
“Same-as-me.” JJ agreed.
“Hello! What can I get you to drink!?” A waitress asked in a loud and slow voice after walking up to the table, looking at JJ as she spoke.
“Excuse me, ma’am, you don’t need to-” Wilford stopped when JJ waved a hand at him. JJ smiled at the waitress and pointed to a picture of the Sprite logo.
“I’ll take a Cherry Coke.” Wilford said, irritation clear in his voice.
“Alright. Are you ready to order or do you need a few minutes?” The waitress asked in a normal tone to Wilford. Wilford looked at JJ and JJ gestured for Wilford to go ahead.
“We’ll each take a French Soup Burger, but can we get his with a bean burger?” Wilford said.
“No problem? Anything else?”
“Nope.” Wilford forced a smile and it went away the moment the waitress was gone. “I should complain to the manager.” He grumbled.
“No. No. Fine.” JJ signed, letting Wilford know that it was okay.
“But-”
“How are you?” JJ asked, cutting Wilford off again. Wilford sighed before smiling and answering JJ’s question.
After dinner, JJ and Wilford were walking out of the restaurant, JJ holding Wilford’s arm again. Wilford saw Anti standing at the end of the parking lot, leaning against a tree and scrolling through his phone. He must be JJ’s ‘ride’ home.
“I still don’t get why the waitress was yelling at you or why they gave you a braille menu.” Wilford huffed when they stopped walking.
“Understand. Talk. Can’t.” JJ shook his head as he signed, saying that they didn’t understand people who couldn’t talk. “She. Thought. I. Deaf.” He explained.
“Even then, you don’t need a braille menu and there was no need to yell. Yelling wouldn’t magically-” Wilford was stopped once again, but this time by JJ grabbing his face and pulling him in for a kiss.
“Thank you.” JJ said. “Fine. Promise.”
“I…” Wilford held out the word, face flushing.
“Kiss him back, you dolt!” Anti shouted. Wilford stiffened for a moment before shooting Anti a quick glare. JJ just raised a brow and smirked, asking if Wilford was actually going to do it. Wilford laughed and cupped JJ’s cheek with a hand, leaning in to press their lips together again. He couldn’t help himself from laughing a little again when he saw that JJ was blushing this time. “If you’re gonna fuck, let me know so I can go home!” Anti shouted again, getting Wilford and JJ to both have flushed faces.
“See you. Later.” JJ said before going over to Anti, slapping at his arm as soon as he reached him. Anti just laughed before glitching the two away. Wilford happily smiled at the spot, snapping out of his daze when his phone started buzzing.
“Hey, Darky!” Wilford greeted after answering the phone, walking further away from the restaurant. “Yep, all went well...If you say ‘dish’ one more time I’m friend breaking-up with you.” Wilford warned with a chuckle, disappearing in a cloud of pink smoke.

THE FALSE NEGATIVES
In The Company Of Men (1997) opens in an airport where two middle management guys have just arrived: a bespectacled seborrheic named Howard, and an ex-jock good ol’ boy named...Chad.
Howard walks out of the bathroom. He’s been hit, by a woman, just for asking the time—like, Mountain or Central. “Wait, wait. You're telling me about some sort of unprovoked assault here?” Chad says, “Did she give you the time at least?”
Howard doesn’t laugh. He doesn’t even seem to recognize it as a joke. And therein lies the problem, for him and everyone else.
The two men are in town a few weeks to work at a branch office. They exchange complaints. This place blows. The job sucks. Coworkers are vultures. Can’t trust anyone. Howard just got dumped by his fiancée. Chad says he just got dumped too.
CHAD: I'm standing there, no note...not a “thanks for four years of a roof over my bleached-blonde head”...nothing. You know? And it comes to me...the truth. I do not give a shit, not about anybody. A family member, a job, none of it. I couldn't care less.
HOWARD: Geez.
CHAD: Don't get me wrong. We're pals.
HOWARD: Same college.
CHAD: Exactly, and that means something. But these other folks...You know, jump on while the going's good? No, that will not do.
“Circle the date on this one, big guy,” Chad says, “We keep playing along with this 'pick up the check,' 'can't a girl change her mind' crap...and we can't even tell a joke in the workplace? There's going to be hell to pay down the line, no doubt about it.”
They move to the hotel bar.
youtube
CHAD: I don't want to shock you. It's just a thought. It's the same crap we played in school, only better, because we get a payback on this messy relationship shit we're dealing with.
HOWARD: No, right, it's funny, it is. it's just...way out there.
CHAD: I think it would be refreshing, I really do...and very therapeutic coming off the women we just have.
HOWARD: Well, just for instance, who would it be?
CHAD: No idea. But she’s out there, I know it. Just waiting for us to find her.
Let’s start here.
They say guilt is omniscient; that doesn’t mean you can’t throw sand in its eyes. Unlike shame, guilt is universal, at some level everyone knows that violating the NAP makes you a dick. But suppose you like, really want to. How do you get from Crime and Punishment to Crimes and Misdemeanors?
The above scene is demonstrative. First, replace the human object with an idea. Hurting an innocent woman is obviously evil—plus, why would you do that? Women are soft, thoughtful, have nice voices, etc. But hurting “women” in general? “Women,” who smile right past you and say “that’s so funny!” instead of laughing and sing along to vapid breakup songs like they could ever know the pain of a sensitive incel? God knows “they” want to hurt “men.”
Second, remove the subject: you aren’t going to do anything. A passive process, inevitable given the laws of thermodynamics, is going to occur. You remember that one scene in Glengarry Glen Ross? “Somebody should stand up and strike back. Somebody should do something to them.” Deus vult.
But that explanation doesn’t do justice to Chad’s cunning. He alternates between 1) “big guy”-ing Howard re: office politics and romantic troubles, and 2) brutal, frequent, almost compulsive misogyny. These are twin strategies in the same campaign. When Chad says, “some corn-fed bitch who'd mess her pants if you sharpen a pencil for her,” Howard gives a single snort of laughter. I know that one. It’s a social laugh, slave morality coming straight from the spinal cord, brain playing catch-up, “oh, it’s funny because it was a joke.” Like all the nice construction workers asking ladies to smile, Chad wants to be a friend. It would be rude not to laugh at the joke of a friend. But when your ego endorses a perspective your superego rejects, you build up a debt of guilt. The heavier your debt, the more you have to borrow from the abstraction of ideal over real. The more you suspend judgment, the more you have to rely on the judgment of others. The more crimes you share with an accomplice, the deeper you enmesh yourself in conspiracy. So a few hours later and a little drunk:
HOWARD: What'd she say?
CHAD: "I don't trust anything that bleeds for a week and doesn't die."
(Both laugh)
CHAD: So you in?
HOWARD: Aw, shit man...yeah, I’m in.
CHAD: Alright, let’s do it. Let’s hurt somebody.
Somebody shows up the next day.
The object is a deaf woman named Christine. Reads lips, self-conscious about this so wears headphones so coworkers will have to attract her attention. A copy-editor or something, 90 words per minute. Brunette and pale, short hair, slender neck, narrow frame, Améliesexual, Forever 21.
When a male coworker informs Chad of her disability, Chad does an imitation “dolphin voice” and gets a big laugh. Then he goes and introduces himself.
CHAD: You're new here, aren't you? Don't be embarrassed. We're all new sometime, right? (Pause) That's a lovely blouse.
“A, E, I, O, U and sometimes Y is like the Holy Grail to this poor wretch,” Chad tells Howard. Howard, sitting down to urinate, gives an ambiguous response. Chad: “You're not pussing out on this, are you, Howie?”
HOWARD: All I mean is, I think everything's a business, whatever you go into. Your typing there or my opportunity directing this project. Doesn't matter. Every walk of life's an industry...from child care right on up.
HOWARD: So, on a personal level, that's what I'm doing here. I was walking by, saw you, figured, "What the hell," you know? You probably have a boyfriend, but you gotta take your chance, right? And who knows? It might turn out to be mutually advantageous. So, that's really just a long-winded way of saying...I'd like to go out sometime. Maybe get a drink? My name's Howard, by the way. I'm free this weekend.
Act III shows the two Lotharios in parallel. Howard’s dating sim begins with a motorized tour cart ride at the zoo. Howard arrives late, blames this on having to “ream out” some employees, has to define “ream,” clarifies that, no, you don’t have to feel bad for them, like, it was no big deal. Then he backtracks and admits he was lying—none of that happened, he ran back to the hotel to change his shirt. “I get so used to saying what I think people want to hear...I forget they might just want the truth sometimes,” Howard says. “It’s all right,” Christine says, “Just remember: I can't hear you when you're lying.”
Cut to:
CHAD: I have to face this. My job ends here in a few weeks, and...I want you to know that whatever you do is all right with me. I don't care about your dating other guys...and if we're apart for a while or...
CHAD: Well, I just want you to know that, whatever happens, I trust you. Okay? Oh, boy, this is really hard. I like you. There, I said it. It's out. I'll eat better now. It's true. I look at you, and I see...good, nice, kind. I am very happy with you, and I want our relationship—you feel this could be a relationship, right? I want to nurture it and just see us blossom.
Christine then proceeds to eyelash flutter like Chad said he cried listening to Carrie & Lowell. We have the power of camera angles, but even without them—this is so, so, so obviously bullshit, right? Like a Markov chatbot trying to simulate “boyfriend”? But hold up. Under oath: can you point out the lie?
Chad’s branch office job does end in a few weeks. He really does see Christine as good/nice/kind, trusts her, doesn’t care if she dates other guys, wants the relationship to blossom (at least in the short term). Contrast with Howard’s “ream out” anecdote, which, objectively: Fake News, Not An Argument, Myth Busted. And yet if Howard hadn’t confessed the plot would have moved on without a missed beat—to you, the viewer, it rings exaggerated, but not intuitively false.
And you’d be right, because truth cannot be extracted from individual words. Here’s the 2x2 for all y’all Ribbonfarmers: factual-truth = math; factual-lie = lie of omission; counterfactual-truth = metaphor; counterfactual-lie = I’ve got a bridge to sell you. I’m not pulling a po-mo fast one. Objective truth is great, it gave us Youtube and stuff. But words are imprecise no matter how many footnotes: since they compress preverbal desire, they always contain a lie of omission. And metaphors, though annotated with “citation needed, does not actually look like a summer’s day,” sometimes reveal crucial and unspeakable truths about the algorithm that creates them.
Point: lies cannot be proved or disproved by geometry. Counterpoint: still, being lied to is a distinct subjective experience. Example: when a minor fall to major lift makes you spit rage, it’s never because the song is particularly bad, no one actually enjoys math rock but no one gets mad at it either. The anger is instead a response to perceived manipulation. People get mad at rap/country/Bieber because these genres lean heavily on identity; the artist is, from the first guitar twang/phat beat/“baby,” trying to convince you of something about him/her/yourself. “Well, doesn’t everyone do that?” Extremely duh, but note that if you accept the artist’s claim as true or false then the nausea doesn’t occur. You can’t be manipulated if you’ve made up your mind, a sufficiently bad lie stops being one, see also, camp.
That’s the horror of the middle-place: if you just let yourself slide, if you just stopped being you, you would like it. Times Square neon makes me vomit blood but Casablanca is charming despite the same level of weapons-grade ideology. The former might persuade me to drink Suntory, the latter has zero chance of getting me to enter World War II. The propaganda of the past—the art of the past—will always be better than that of the present, not just because of selection bias but because it doesn’t feel manipulative, and it doesn’t feel manipulative because it’s not talking to you.
Ergo: we feel lied to = when we can tell + that we are being told + what we want to hear. And this is why Howard’s anecdote doesn’t feel like a lie: it wasn’t. Sure, the words were bullshit, and maybe he fooled Christine, but what he communicated to you—“I want to be seen as a man despite my multiple and obvious failings”—was 100% genuine.
Why can’t Howard tell a fib? One possibility is that he learned about girls from hentai and Roosh V and so thinks that women are attracted to toughness rather than the conquest of toughness. But more likely is that he doesn’t want to: he’s more interested in having Christine see him a certain way than in giving the Good End answers. So Howard, like you, tries to work Million Dollar Extreme references into his Tinder convos, which makes him a narcissist and a tool but not a liar. Proof of the pudding is that it doesn’t work.
Contra Chad: how come it’s so obvious that he’s lying? But of course: the words weren’t meant for you. Chad has self, not self-image, and so no compunctions about roleplaying to get what he wants. For us, his dialogue falls in an uncanny valley. But if you’re the target audience...
“Did she give you the time at least?” Howard never laughs at Chad’s deadpan because it’s too on the nose, it’s exactly what a friend should say, fact check = TRUE, bleep bloop. Howard social-laughs at Chad’s misogyny because it’s so absurd, he must be joking, fact check = FALSE, bzzzt. Christine makes the same mistake: Chad speaks the language of romance, she agrees to see him as such, and she stops asking questions. They outsource their superego to the etiquette of conversation, and who can blame them, their fantasies are coming true. Only you have the outside view, or so it seems: perfect etiquette masking irony, irony masking anger, anger masking unspeakable sociopathy: that even the anger is fake. But if you see that, then he was talking to you, that was the whole point, to give a winking apology to a fellow conspirator—“Don’t hate the player, hate the game.”
And therein lies the problem, for you and everyone else.
In The Company of Men does not have a happy ending.
Chad sleeps with Christine. (“God, I am just so taken with you. I just...”) Howard sees them at lunch together and gets worried. He pulls some work levers to get Chad out of town, refurbishes his ex-fiancee’s ring, and invites her to dinner.
HOWARD: Maybe this isn't the perfect time...but I care about you, Christine. I want you to know I like you a lot. I need—I just don't want to lose you.
Christine cuts him off. She’s made a horrible mistake by letting things get this far: she’s in love with Chad.
CHRISTINE: It’s all my fault...You both should have known about this...When you don't date for a while...you wonder...if you're attractive...or interesting to someone. You let things get out of hand first chance you get. That's what I did.
Pause.
HOWARD: We did know.
“Chad? He doesn't like you. He loathes you. He detests you and your pathetic retard voice. That's what he calls it. Christine, you bought that shit?”
Christine freaks out and screams that’s not true, stop it, but Howard keeps going, spilling the beans about the game, apologizing and begging:
HOWARD: Can't you see I'm the good guy? I'm the good person here. I can't alter what we've done, and I'm a fuck...and a bastard and everything else on your list, but I'm here. I'm here, and I'm telling you...I love you.
He brings out the ring.
HOWARD: It's not a game to me anymore. Take it.
Christine doesn’t, and Howard promptly explodes that she’s “fucking handicapped,” “you think you can choose, men falling at your feet?” and so on.
The standard take on this type of (very common) story is that even though [beta male] loved [manic pixie] more than [Chad], the beta male’s complaisance to the patriarchy makes him “just as bad.” Fair enough, consequentialism ftw, but it’s suspicious that the narrator of these tales is often the beta male protagonist himself. No one self-flagellates unless they get off on it, and the above take hides an assumption: that (e.g.) Howard really was in love with Christine.
Was he? There’s no doubt he had some of the relevant chemicals floating around. Yet it’s very possible for abusers to love their victims and cheaters to love their cuckolded spouses. It’s very possible to love each and every other member of the orgy. Hell, I know some meditators who can connect with the astral rhythms of life itself—and they aren’t bullshitting, they really feel it. But drugs are cheap. What does your oxytocin rush mean for anyone besides you?
I’ll tell you why Howard thought that he was in love: he went through the motions. Just as Howard decided that Chad was his friend because that was the role he played, he decided that Christine was marriage material because...she was there. They had nothing in common, they had zero chemistry, but she was there. You gotta serve somebody. “I need—I just don’t want to lose you.” Love as manifest in the material plane requires sacrifice, is sacrifice, of opportunity if nothing else. Howard’s love is meaningless because it costs him nothing. Maybe Uber-Howard would still care about Christine, but not only is it impossible for Christine to know that, Howard himself doesn’t know. Power doesn’t corrupt, power reveals that you were corrupt all along. “Can’t you see I’m the good guy?” See what?
The next day, Howard gets demoted at work. Something went wrong with a fax machine and the copy came out too light; yeah, like a symbol. Chad sees Christine one last time. She confronts him. Chad tries to keep a straight face and then breaks out grinning: “Fuck it. Surprise.”
CHAD: So how does it feel? I mean right now. This instant. How do you feel inside, knowing what you know?
Christine slaps him and begins to sob.
A few days later, Howard shows up at Chad’s place. He’s distraught. Chad jokes around about the contest, then gestures to the other room, where his old girlfriend is sleeping in his king-sized bed. “What the hell? I mean, when did she crawl back?” Howard says. “She never left, Howie,” Chad says, “She’s always been right there.” “Then...why? Why, Chad?”
Good question. The first clue is when Howard runs into Chad and Christine on a date: “Howard and I have the same alma mater. He graduates a semester ahead of me, and now he's my boss,” Chad says, and for once the bitterness creeps in. The second is when Howard, blaming the higher-ups, sends Chad out of town:
CHAD: The real injustice here is if I could throw a curveball—you know, a really good one—just that, nothing else, no education, nothing—none of this would matter. Play in the big leagues for ten years, retire to Oahu.
Chad is handsome, confident, clever, and quite possibly a representation of The Great Deceiver himself. And yet, to get laid, Chad has to contort himself into a puppy. To get paid, he has to kiss ass to Windows 95 robots who wear beige and drink decaf. He spends the day humoring people who won’t acknowledge the joke—that if he could just play stupid arbitrary baseball, he wouldn’t have to. He’s powerless: no matter how well Chad tells his lies, the system determines the signifiers into which these lies fit.
But Howard—Howard believes in the system. He’s exactly the sort of person who created the phatics that Chad has to obey, who follows even the most vacuous rules with moral seriousness, clings to them all the harder as they turn him into a self-loathing nebbish. Chad’s revenge is to turn the rules against him, to show that no matter how oppressive social protocols get, they will always oppress Chad less, since he’ll say whatever bullshit is required while you’re stuttering your feelings on Whitman. The more checkboxes you demand checked, the more you favor the liar. Chad is bound by the rules of the game, but these rules are what gives him relative power: they make people trust him. “Because I could,” Chad says. “See you Monday.”
There’s a practical lesson here. Every day ambulances scream into the ED carrying young men who moan and complain that they are bedeviled by wine-loving dog moms, fluent in sarcasm, and yet for some reason they can’t get the time of day from those goth chicks who have tongues stuck out and eyes rolled up at all times. I’m not here to kinkshame, send pics if you’re a goth chick with your tongue stuck out and eyes rolled up at all times. But please be aware that lusting after a mannequin is a surefire way to get [extremely Taleb voice] fooled by randomness: the more detailed the script, the more you favor the actor.
I’m not saying you can’t have a type, but the person willing to sacrifice that last ounce of selfhood will always be closest to your 21st century ideal of bimboification. “There are smart women, but I don’t know many women with truly original ideas,” says the cerebral young man who needs four search operators to find adequate porn. Don’t worry—this process is dehumanizing for the fetishized person, but it’s dehumanizing in the other direction as well: only someone who doesn’t care what you think about them, about their real self, would consent to play a fake.
The problem with fetishization is that it prizes symbol above reality, and unfortunately for Christine, dating is systematized fetishization. Not a diss—this is how dating is supposed to work. If our intuition for love is inculcated by Disney, dating replaces the hero’s journey with its symbols: clothes and music as proxy for backstory; movie or pub crawl as proxy for adventure; astrology, Myers-Briggs, and 36 Questions as a proxy for intimacy. Dick pics and nudes test sexual potency without costing the two drink minimum, text and emoji idiosyncrasies reveal more about class and education than a brunch and a half. Dating is an attempt to economize romance, it’s unsurprising that the term was coined in the wake of the Industrial Revolution.
“You know that birds sing, right?” Sure, but nobody has any illusions about what the birds are looking for. I’m not knocking ritual, just ritual that pretends it’s something deeper. If milord sends milady twelve roses, a thoroughbred, a fiefdom, and a bard playing D’Angelo, this courtship is not taken as evidence of good character. It is judged on its own merits, i.e. this guy is either really interested or thirsty af.
This would be common sense except that every force in modern society is opposed to it. Since women are valued as approximations of fetish, they a) lose points for wearing the wrong symbols, and b) lose points if a partner doesn’t fit the brand. So now the first date Scantrons become radiant with their own fascination, because even if they have no meaning except “went through the motions,” everyone on Facebook is acting like they do, and “he seemed nice” is no excuse for dating a Trump supporter or a black guy. And now that privacy has moved public, the list of checkboxes lengthens as men try to gerrymander pussy (which again, always favors Chad) and Cosmopolitan feminists generate new metrics by which women can fall short.
These bureaucrats may have been hurt themselves, they may have the best of intentions. Perhaps that’s why their regulations are never phrased as hostile takeover. Instead, they take the form of advice, #lifehacks, and laugh-tracked satire at a third party’s expense. That’s how it always is, a friendly voice lends you a superego and all you have to do is pay interest on shame. The system wins when its values become your own.
However strong this force was historically, it’s stronger now that society consists of, let me check my phone, everyone. Just as metropolises are now made up of showrooms and gift shops, the demands of 7.442 billion potential tourists outweighing a pittance of locals, the citizens shape themselves into fungible, neon-dyed tchotchkes, while being tormented by the possibility that they have fallen short in this important moral task. The end-game of dating is the targeted ad.
Before you start in on “swipe culture,” let’s be clear: no one has met cute through friends since the second war in Iraq, and Tinder, whatever faults it may have, at least requires the sacred fumbling of getting to know a stranger. OKCupid is a better example of modern anti-romance, with its careful sorting of partners by politics and caste, with its swamp of information bias that disguises—encourages—lying on the internet. But of course a Yelped bar or bookstore offers the same anonymity, the same curated selection who respond to the same empty lines until you start to hate them for it, like how dare you force me to lie, how dare you be so predictable, and this weakness makes them human which isn’t what you wanted anyway. No doubt they feel the same.
If this sounds bad, it gets worse: the above process is directly responsible for the most modern misandry and misogyny. Please note that the Women Are From Venus stereotypes have largely disappeared, even among misogynists. Please further note that #blackpilled misogynists rarely objectify women; in fact many of these men intentionally desexualize the “female race” and substitute, say, male crossdressers. The catcalling misogyny of the past came from a position of power: internet death threat misogyny comes from desperation. The twist is that the same transition has occurred among women—that despite every metric claiming that women are better off than before, women have moved from Men Are From Mars to a nagging suspicion that anything with a phallus should die.
Why would both sexes feel more powerless? Not discussed in polite society, but heavily discussed by misogynists, is the apparent epidemic of transactional sex: paypig/findommes, camgirls, sugar babies, and omnipresent Amazon wishlists. Sorta kitschy, free country, whatever. I’m sure part of this is mere technological transition, the gyration of the strip club from analog to digital, and Kanye informs me that there have always been implicit gold digging arrangements. But think about what happens when these private arrangements go public. First, some guy starts to associate “hot girl” with “:P spoil me”, and FYI, anger and lust, both performed with a closed fist, are exactly zero degrees apart on the axis of masturbation. And now that our guy has this (maybe unconscious) association, women have to rise to the occasion, e.g. make snotty demands for Venmo donations, because even though this makes him howl with rage, if it’s not there, he assumes the girl’s not that hot.
Everyone loses: women learn that they have to put on an act to get attention, except that half of men think they should die for this act and the other half—even the ones looking for a Serious Relationship—seem to lose interest if it’s ever turned off. Meanwhile the guy grows increasingly lonely/desperate/bitter as he tautologizes that every single girl he likes is an “attention whore." Our guy doesn’t know who he is or what he wants outside of anger and its aesthetics. Maybe he’d hit it off great with one of those women; maybe he should choose a different set of superficialities to pursue; maybe people lie on the internet; regardless, OKCupid gives them a compatibility of 43%.
And meanwhile women are wondering the same thing: how can you know?
There’s one more crucial scene In The Company of Men. Howard arrives at an airport and sees Christine working at a desk. He walks over to her and says, “Listen.” She doesn’t respond. So he says it again, “Listen,” and again, and again, screaming now and—
—but what could he say? Even if his intentions were pure to the utmost, what could he possibly say or do that wouldn’t be perceived as an act? What could any man do that wouldn’t be perceived in the same way? “I asked her what time it was. You know, Mountain, Central.” No wonder she hit you.
This is how society arrives at an absence of faith. It’s no coincidence that Chad executed his scheme as a tourist: that meant there were no witnesses to his character. It’s no coincidence that he picked a nervous brown-eyed waif—someone with too much self-doubt to trust her instincts, someone who draped herself in the trappings of goodness, someone too inexperienced to know that perfect is always a trap. But Christine was chosen because she was deaf. She couldn’t hear voices, she could only see the words. Now the words are gone. The question is what remains.

'after getting intoxicated at a part, you and your friends decide summoning a demon for 'fun'. it doesn't work. however, the next day when you return home from the party you find the demon on your couch' ik this is pretty weird and specific but you can change the details a bit but it's basically a gist of it ; pairing renison. you don't have to do this if u don't want to im just weird okay byeee
okay i am meant to be leaving these till AFTER my exam but i saw this one and had to IMMEDIATELY WRITE IT (and like…two sequels, also lmao)
Rich white people get unbelievably stupid when they drink, that’s just a fact. Allison should really stop thinking of herself as an exception to the rule.
Case in point: they’ve been doing shots, and now someone is drawing a pentagram on the kitchen floor.
“Candles!” someone is yelling. “And, like, I’ve got some herbs and shit.”
Allison hates these people. She’s always hated them. Right now she should be calling the car company and going the fuck home.
Instead, she scoffs, “That’s not how you summon a demon.”
“How the hell would you know?” Trent, whose father is one of those mega-rich businessmen with a wife and two mistresses, demands.
“It’s obvious. Dancing with the devil, you know,” she says, waving his tequila-breath away from her. “Someone, put on some music!”
So. That’s how she ends up dancing in a pentagram to Justin Beiber on her Saturday night.
The fucking paparazzi snap her on her way back to her apartment in last night’s dress and oversized sunglasses. That’s fine, because she’s fully made up – thank god for whoever invented travel-size Chanel – and she’s wearing Givenchy. Still, they’re assholes.
They can’t get past the front door of her building, but it’s not until she gets inside her apartment that she breathes out. Her life is a delicate balance between façade and the real Allison, and lately she feels more like the nicely dressed doll than the human being.
She walks through towards the kitchen, and then pauses mid-step by the living room door because there’s someone sitting on her fucking couch.
“Who are you?” she demands, hand flying to her bag where she’s got a bottle of Mace. The woman in her apartment looks back, unperturbed. She’s dressed in plain jeans and a blouse from a brand Allison doesn’t recognise but knows isn’t designer. Her hair is bleached to ash blonde and then dyed at the tips in a rainbow where it touches her shoulders.
She doesn’t look like a crazed stalker, but normal people don’t break into apartments and sit on the couch.
“You can call me Renee,” she tells Allison calmly. “You invited me here.”
“I would remember that,” Allison snaps back, because she wasn’t that drunk last night.
“You do,” Renee tells her. “You’re a good dancer.”
She stands from the couch and starts to walk towards Allison. Allison adjusts her stance, trying to remember what she learned in those self-defense classes she took, and says, “Don’t come any closer to me. I’ve got a gun.”
“Don’t lie to me,” Renee says, with a sweet smile. It’s really goddamn creepy. “You’ve got a can of Mace. It wouldn’t matter anyway. Bullets can’t hurt me.”
Okay, and she’s insane, apparently. Allison says, “I’m calling the cops.”
“When they get here they won’t be able to see me,” Renee replies. “You’ll just be the delusional rich girl insisting there’s an invisible person in her apartment. Won’t that make a good headline tomorrow? Your parents will be ecstatic.”
She’s close enough to touch Allison now. Allison is frozen in place. She whispers, “Who are you?”
“You still haven’t figured it out yet,” Renee says. She sounds a little disappointed. “Do you really think a woman like you dances like that in a pentagram and doesn’t earn some kind of attention?”
“You’re trying to tell me you’re a demon?” Allison asks, galvanised by the sheer level of insanity this girl is spouting. “No. No. You’re crazy. I don’t know how you know what happened last night, but I’m going to call the cops-”
“No you aren’t,” Renee tells her, almost gently, and grabs Allison’s arm to stop her from opening her purse. Her hands are hot, and it takes Allison’s brain a moment to realise what her nerves are telling her – that they’re burning her. Allison yelps and tries to pull away, but can’t. Renee is too strong.
“I don’t want to hurt you,” Renee tells her calmly, like Allison isn’t fighting her grip at all.
Allison can’t shake her. She opens her mouth to scream, praying her neighbours are home, but when she tries her voice stops in her throat.
“Shh,” Renee tells her, and then Allison suddenly can’t move at all. It’s like her body has frozen in place. At least the burning has stopped. The hand that was holding her steady strokes her forearm. “Listen to what I’m saying. You called me here, Allison. Now you have to do something for me to make the trip worthwhile.”
Allison stares at her. She thinks her eyes might be trying to bulge out of her head. She can still breathe, though, and after a moment she tries to speak at a normal volume. The words come out. “What do you want?”
Renee smiles. “Well. How about I write it down for you?”

How Did We End Up Here?
Band: 5 Seconds of Summer Band Member:
Luke Hemmings
Pairing: Luke Hemings-Y/N
Warnings: Alcohol, Indications of smut, Swearing
a/n: Based off the song “End Up Here” by 5 Seconds of Summer.
The club in LA was blaring with music, the latest hits coming out of the speakers. You pulled the door open and the smell of alcohol hit you like a ton of bricks. Clad in your favorite black ripped skinny jeans, black high top converse, a distressed Rolling Stones T shirt, and your signature black leather jacket, you welcomed the smell, and walked in, turning every head within a 20 foot radius of the door. You were a regular here. Most people would describe you as badass, but you liked to see yourself as an independent woman who liked to enjoy herself. But, you took being called a badass as a compliment. Before you could take 5 steps into the building, a drunk guy stumbled up to you and asked you your name. “Why should I tell you?” you sasses, hoping your tone would make the guy go away, but knowing that it wouldn’t. “Because it would be a mistake if you didn’t.” “I highly doubt that.” “Oh cmon beautiful. Don’t be that way,” he said to you, grabbing your wrist and pulling you towards him. You yanked your arm back, and he grabbed it again, pulling you flush against him, and more you pulled back, punching him in the nose. His hands flew towards his nose and he glared at you, calling you a bitch and walking away. Satisfied with your doing, you walked towards the bar and asked for a beer, sitting down and putting half of you attention on the football game on the TV, and the other half on the people in the club. You looked around and saw a mass of drunks on the dance floor, some people stumbling around, and some more against the wall, doing the same things as you. One guy caught your eye. He was tall and lanky, with blond hair that came down in curls. He was wearing black jeans and tan boots, and a Kurt Cobain shirt on his chest. He was looking at you and when you caught his gaze you smirked, turning only when the bartender gave you your beer. You took a swig of the drink, putting your attention back to the football game. It wasn’t any team you cared about, but it was football nonetheless, so you watched it. One of the teams scored a touchdown, and 75% of the people at the bar cheered, and the other 25% either didn’t care, or were upset. You didn’t care either way, but as you finished your beer, you got another one and stood up walking around the club and people watched. The people on the dance floor were your favorite to watch, as most of the were drunk and were making a fool of them selves. You watched this guy with bleach blond hair and stubble on his face, dance like a maniac, and you had a feeling this was the same way he danced when he was sober as well. By then you had made your way around the club and were walking back towards the bar, but that same boy in the Cobain shirt caused you stop. He was watching you again, not in a creepy way, but more as if you weren’t like anything he’d ever seen before.
(Luke’s POV)
I watched the door open, and saw this beautiful woman walk through the door. And it seemed like i wasn’t the only one that noticed her either. People from the door to the back of the bar turned and looked at her, either checking her out or simply staring. I had recognized her from the few times i had seen her in here. She was honestly a badass. But there was something else about her that made me not be able to take my eyes off her. She was beautiful, and i could tell by her clothes that her style was great. But that wasn’t it. As i watched her get hassled by some drunk guy, i almost went and pulled the guy away from her, but she punched him in the face, most likely breaking his nose, before i could do anything about it. She threw a mean punch, and that only added to the fact that i couldn’t take my eyes off her. She ordered something from the bar, and began looking around, and eventually she looked at mean, meeting my eyes and smirking at me. Before u could react, she had turned around and grabbed her drink, the same kind of beer i was holding. She watching the American football game of the TV, and continued to until she ran out of beer, grabbing another one and walking around the club. She looked at the dancers on the dance floor, laughing when Michael tripped over his feet, and i did the same, watching my best friend make himself look like an idiot. She made her way around, and i thought she was going to go back to the bar, but she met my eyes, and began to head my way, and my heart sped up at the thought of meeting the girl i couldn’t take my eyes off of.
(Your POV)
"Nice shirt. I saw them in concert last year. Great Show,“ you said to the mystery boy as you ended up in front of him. "Oh uh… thanks. I’ve listened to them for years,” the boy answered back, and you smiled at his nervousness. “So. I couldn’t help but notice you watching me. Wanna tell me what that was about?” you asked the boy, expecting him to be nervous and stutter over his words again, but was a bit surprised when he smoothed out his tone.
"I like to look at beautiful things,“ he responded.
"Ahh. I’m Y/N,” you told him, sticking your hand out.
"I’m Luke. It’s nice to meet the girl who’ll punch me if i say something wrong.“
"Oh you saw that? He hits on me every time I walk in here, and i punch him every time, yet he never stops. But i doubt i’ll have to punch you any time soon."
"Any time soon? I don’t know whether i should look forward to spending more time with you or be scared that i’ll get a broken nose."
"Don’t mess up. That’s how you avoid my fist."
"I’ll try. Now i see that you’ve finished your beer. Will you do me the pleasure of buying you another one?"
"Well i usually would say no, but i like you. So yes. You may,” you responded, and the both of you walked over to the bar and sat down. “One beer for the pretty lady,” Luke said to the bartender, and you having been here so many times, you knew the man you passed you the beer as Jonny. “Thank ya Jonny Boy,” you said, calling him by the nickname you deemed him with a long time ago. “You know him?” Luke asked after you got your drink.
"Oh yea. I’m here a lot and i’ve come to know the people who work here pretty well.“
"How come i’ve only seen you here a few times if you’re in here as often as you seem to be?”
"Probably because you’ve been always been busy with that girl you seem to always be with,“ you said, and he gave you a very confused look.
"Oh yea. I’ve seen you here before. I’ve always thought you were cute, but you were always with her so i never said anything,” you told him. answering his unasked question.
"Oh Arzaylea. Yea. About that. I’m kind of famous, in a way. I don’t like calling it that thought. But my management wants it to look like i’m dating someone, so it’s basically a fake relationship.“
"Oh i know who you are Hemmings. My friend is obsessed with you. But it didn’t seem like a fake relationship to me.”
"Well I don’t know if it’s good or bad that you know who i am. But i promise it is. I don’t like her, my band mates don’t like her. My band mate Ashton was in one last year. Michael is the only one who is in a real relationship.“
"Well I suppose i’ll believe you. It was nice meeting you Hemmings. But my apartment is a few blocks away and i don’t want to be here anymore. Maybe ill see you around,” you said, getting up and throwing a 20 on the bar for Jonny.
“Hey wait. Lemme come with you."
"Won’t your people get mad?"
"Screw them."
"Why not then,” you said, and he smiled, also throwing a 20 on the bar, running over to his friend with tan skin and dark hair and telling him something, before turning back and running to you. You pushed open the door and you both kept your heads down, hoping no one would take pictures. You heard a few clicks but just kept walking, and Luke grabbed you hand pulling you through them. Since bouncers and security were holding them back, the paps didn’t follow you. When you turned the corner, and there wasn’t anyone trying to ruin your life, you both lifting you heads and breathed out, neither of you pulling you hand from each other’s. You walked the short distance to your apartment. You unlocked it and took off you jacket, revealing the few small tattoos on your arms, and took off you shoes as well. You told Luke he could take his off, and you went into you kitchen to grab two beers. You never drank more than five in a night, since you had only gotten drunk once, and knowing you made some big mistakes that night, and not being able to remember them, you vowed never to get black out drunk again. You walked into the living room to see Luke on your couch, smiling up at you. You sat down and drank your beers and continued talking about anything and everything. About his job, about yours, about your tattoos, about his fake relationship and everything in between, until both your drinks had long since been done and discarded. After a while it was silent, but it wasn’t awkward. It was a comfortable silence, with you on one end of the couch and Luke in the middle. You were looking at the blank TV, and when you turned back to Luke, you felt his lips on yours. It stunned you for a few seconds, but when you realized what was happening, you closed you eyes and kissed back. You climbed onto his lap and wrapped you legs around his waist. He deepened the kiss, licking your bottom lip asking for entrance, and when you denied him, he tried again. He kept trying until eventually he squeezed your butt, causing you to gasp, and you slipped his tongue in. Your tongues fought for dominance, and he one, smirking into the kiss. You eventually went back into your room, and did much more than just kiss.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
You woke up the next morning to an empty bed. You turned an sat up, remembering last nights event and wondering where the boy had gone. You rubbed your eyes and got out of bed, putting on a pair of underwear and a big T shirt, walking into the kitchen and seeing if he was there. After searching the whole apartment and realizing he wasn’t there, you sighed and went to get your phone from your room. That’s when you noticed one of your bright yellow sticky notes on the nightstand.
"I had fun last night. We should go out sometime. Call me. xxx-xxx-xxxx ~Luke"
You smiled and grabbed your phone and the note and headed into the kitchen. You poured yourself some juice and made some eggs, before sitting down on a bar stool and eating. While you ate, you typed the number into your phone. You typed out a message and sent it.
"You didn’t have to leave this morning you know"
You weren’t expecting a reply right away, so you decided to check your twitter feed. After scrolling through your feed, you decided to see the pictures that had been taken the night before had leaked. You typed in Luke’s name and went to his page, and saw the pictures of the two of you all over his tag. You couldn’t see much of your face in them, but being called the mystery girl in all of them was cool. Just then, your phone buzzed and you checked you texts, seeing that Luke had replied.
Luke Hemmings: I didn’t want to over stay my welcome and I wasn’t sure if you would have wanted me to stay
You: I would’ve been fine with it lol. But we’re you being serious when you said we should hang out sometime?
Luke Hemmings: Yea. I enjoyed talking to you last night.
You: Well, in that case, I was planning on going to Starbucks this morning. You wanna meet me there?
Luke Hemmings: I’d love too. What time?
You: Gimme an hour?
Luke Hemmings: Sounds good:)
You smiled and got up, putting your dishes in the kitchen and heading into your bathroom to take a shower. You showered, did your makeup, and let your wet hair curl up on its own. You decided to wear some distressed denim shorts, a mint green T shirt, a black and white flannel around your waist, and come mint green converse. You grabbed your purse, putting your wallet and car keys in it, and texted Luke that you were ready. You both decided that it would be easiest if you picked him up, so getting in your white Jeep Wrangler, which was a graduation gift from your parents, you drove off to the address Luke had given you. He met you out front and got in the passenger side of your car. He kissed your cheek before buckling his seat belt. “You look good today,” he said to you. “Are you implying that i didn’t look good last night?” you joked back, and listened to him stumble over his words. “Wha- No- I-. That’s not what i meant. You looked really good last night. But you look really good today too.”
"I’m messing with you Hemmings. You don’t look to bad yourself.“ The both of you talked the whole rest of the drive to the popular coffee joint. You always had something to talk about with him, and even after only knowing him for one night, you really liked him. You pulled into the parking lot and went inside. You had gone to one of the Starbucks that was never as crowded, but being in LA, there were obviously some people in there. Fortunately, no one recognized you, and when you got up to the counter, you realized your friend Claire was working. "Hey C! I didn’t know you were working today."
"Hey hun. I switched shifts with someone so they could spend a day with their kid. They were off tomorrow so i’m not sure why a day couldn’t wait, but i don’t have kids. So i don’t know."
"I don’t know how you get up early enough to to work here."
"Honestly? I don’t either. Cute boy by the way,” she said, gesturing to the tall blond behind you.
"I know right. I found him on the street. Thought i’d take him in,“ you joked.
"Hey!!! I’m right here ya know,” Luke said, trying not to laugh. You did however, laugh, and told Clair you wanted your usual, before poking Luke in the ribs and telling him to order. He ordered his drink and she rung it up, but before you had the chance to pull out any cash, she was handing the receipt to Luke already. “Nice to meet you. You’ve done good kid,” Claire said smiling at you before handing writing the drinks on the cups and giving them to her coworkers.
“Lukeeeee. I was gonna pay for that.” “Nonsense. What kind of gentleman would i be if i didn’t pay for them? Besides. for a street kid i can spare $10,” he said, and you both laughed.
"So has your management said anything about last night yet?“
"Oh yea. I woke up this morning to 30 texts and 8 missed calls. I called them back when I got back to my apartment and they yelled at me for 20 straight minutes. About how i was ruining their stupid PR stunt and how it wasn’t good publicity to be with someone who isn’t "famous.” But i had never heard of Arzaylea before they told me i had to pretend to date her.“
"Ouch. Do they not want you to be happy or do they just want the publicity?"
"Probably both."
"What do you band mates have to say about it?"
"They told me to tell management to go fuck themselves and to do what i want. And that i should hook you down before you figure out what i’m really like and run away,” he said the last one with a laugh, and you answered back, “Well, as long as i’m allowed, i don’t think I’ll be going anywhere.”
"I like the sound of that,“ Luke answered, before getting up and grabbing your drinks. You stood up and took yours, grabbing his hand and walking towards the door. You walked to your car, and got in, putting the key in the ignition and turning the AC on. "Where should we go?” You asked Luke, who had grabbed your hand once again across the console.
"Well, we could go drive around LA, but i think we’d be sitting in traffic more than anything.“
"We could go back to one of our apartments and watch netflix if you wanted.” “Netflix and Chill?” he asked with a smirk.
"Yea, without the chill.“
"That sounds like my idea of a perfect afternoon. I have off all day today so it makes for a good off day."
"Alright then,” you said, pulling out of the Starbucks and driving towards your house. You drank your delicious coffee before turning in the radio, and turning it to the pop station and singing along to the first song that came on. Luke started singing with you, and you sounded like a dying cat compared to him. After a few songs, “She’s Kinda Hot,” started blaring through your radio speakers, and you listened to it for a few seconds, singing along, before looking over at Luke, and seeing him looking at you with a big smile on his face.
"What? Do i have something on my face?“
"No, but you know every word to this song.”
"Well yea. It’s a good song and it’s on the radio all the ti- wait. No. Yes. Holy shit. That’s you.“ you realized, hearing the boy’s voice on the radio.
"Sure is,” he replied, the big smile still on his face. You turned up the music and you both sung every word. By then you had arrived at your house apartment. You parked your car and got into the elevator, clicking the button with the 12 on it, and watched the doors closed. You looked over at Luke and studied his featured. He bright blue eyes twinkled, and the stubble on his face was just enough so that it wasn’t too rough, but so that it wasn’t a full beard either.
"Like what you see?“ he said, turning to look at you.
"Very much so,” you replied, taking a step up to him. He put his hands on your hips and you put your on his chest, standing on your tip-toes and pressing your lips to his. He immediately kissed back, pulling you against him. His lips were soft, and the stubble rubbed slightly on your face and your lips danced together. Before you knew it, the elevator doors were opening, and you pulled away from him and took his hand, walking towards your door and unlocking it.
“I’m gonna go change. Ill be right back,” you said before hurrying off to your room and shutting the door. You changed into a pair of joggers and an AC/DC T shirt. You checked your phone and saw that you had a text from Claire.
Claire💜: Cute guy you had back there. A little scruffy tho, no?
You typed back a reply before going to use the bathroom.
You: You know how I am with guys. He’s hot, he’s super nice, and there hasn’t been a moment when we haven’t had something to talk about.
When you came back out of the bathroom, you saw that she had replied.
Claire💜: You guys are cute together. Is it official yet?
You: thx girl;) and no lol i just met him last night.
Claire💜: Last Night??? ONS?
You: I started talking to him in the club last night and we went back to my apartment and had another beer, and yea we did it after that but we met up this morning and it hasn’t been awkward at all.
Claire💜: Do you like him??
You: Yea i do. I mean i obviously haven’t known him long enough to REALLY like him, but i do like him yea.
Claire💜: I hope it works out. You looked really happy today.
You: I hope it does too
You finished your conversation with your friend and plugged your phone up, going out into the living room and plopping down on the couch. Luke was already in sweatpants and a T shirt from when you picking him up earlier, so you were both in comfy clothes. You grabbed the remote and turned on the TV, putting in Netflix. “AC/DC. Wow. I found a girl with music taste. What else do i need?” Luke remarked. “To pick what we’re going to watch,” you said to the boy; looking up at him.
"Well i see you’ve been watching How I Met Your Mother, and i love that show, so i say that.“
"And i’ve found a guy who likes good TV. What else do i need?"
"To click the show and come cuddle with me.” You smiled and did exactly what he said, clicking the button and laying back, cuddling into his side as his arm snaked around your shoulders and pulling you closer to him. Halfway through your third episode of How I Met Your Mother, you heard Luke say from above you,
"How the hell did we end up here. 24 hours ago i had no idea who you were.“ You thought about it for a minute, before answering,
"I’m not totally sure. I’m happy that i know who you are now though.”
"And I the same. But seriously though. While we were at Starbucks the lady at the table behind us told me that was were a cute couple. It was funny"
"We would be though don’t ya think?“
"We really would."

Our Summers Together Are My Best Kept Secrets And My Biggest Mistakes // Chapter Three
Ships: Peterick, Brallon, Ferard, Trohley, Jalex, Zian and others in the background
Description: Summers for most kids are spent going to the beach and on vacations with your family but lots are shipped off to summer camps for the whole summer.
But the kids at Hempman Summer Camp actually beg to go!
Patrick Stump, Andy Hurley and Joe Trohman all met there, they had all known each other for probably over a decade because of this absolutely amazing stay-away camp for kids from the ages of six to nineteen.
All the kids that were there came back until they couldn't and they always had the same kids except a few new, younger, kids every year.
That is until the year that the weird kid with the jet-black, dyed, black fringe and the crazy piercings and a couple tattoos comes in like he owns the place.
That year also happens to be the same year that Patrick Stump gets gum stuck to the new emo kid's face and hair.
It was love at first sight... But hate at first interaction for the blonde-haired, blue-eyed boy and the complete opposite for the new kid, Pete Wentz.
Chapter 3: Three: I Have a Forehead Texting Me and He's Kind of Cute?
Dallon
I lay sprawled out across my bed, I don’t know why I can’t sleep but I’m just wired. Probably just too much coffee? I’m scrolling through my phone while Spencer, Jon and Ryan all slept.
My phone dings with a new message and I check the notification.
New message from: Retrieving…
I tap it and Kik opens.
I have one new message from someone by the name of BeeboBreadbin . What the fuck? I’m intrigued.
BeeboBreadbin: What’s your favorite animal and why?
Who the fuck is this dude? And is he okay?
Dal-Do: What is this? School??
Dal-Do: The flamingo cause it’s gay I guess?

BeeboBreadbin: I’m not against it
BeeboBreadbin: WHat do you look like btw?
I contemplate showing this random guy that literally found my account on Tumblr, of all places, what I look like. I mean it couldn’t hurt really to just show him what I look like, but I mean... I don’t even know what I mean. I’m too tired to think.
Dal-Do: /Image Attached/
Dal-Do: Sorry, I was really drunk in this pic but like thats the most recent I have of just myself and it’s too dark for a good one.

BeeboBreadbin: I’m Brendon
BeeboBreadbin: Not Brandon
BeeboBreadbin: Call me Brandon and I’ll fucking cut you
BeeboBreadbin: /Image Attached/
BeeboBreadbin: See
Dal-Do: Yes, I am so scared of a forehead with a knife, /Brandon/
BeeboBreadbin: I’LL CUT YOU!
Dal-Do: Sure you will
Dal-Do: If anything you’ll want my gay inside u
BeeboBreadbin: You right
BeeboBreadbin: I’m always a slut for a walking dildo
Dal-Do: I’m always a slut for a walking forehead
BeeboBreadbin: Bitch.
Damnit, this kid is actually really funny and he’s pretty fucking hot if I do say so myself. Even with a forehead bigger than his shitty bowl-cut, he was pretty fucking cute. Shit, what was I even thinking? I just met this kid.
Patrick
I felt bad, I was basically using Pete but even for someone as sloppy as him, he was really a fun person to have as a fuck buddy. He was hot as hell, rough, kinky and there were no strings attached! Perfect.
I know it’s fucked up but I’m not out and I’m the biggest commitment phobe on the planet. Yes, I understand that I’m problematic.
For once, I’m the first one awake. It’s only about six in the morning but I was wide awake. Pete squirms in his sleep, mumbling something. He talked in his sleep a lot, most of it was just incoherent mumbles and others were clear, mostly him muttering something to his mother or a friend.
I’m on my phone, checking all my notifications and such, texting some friends and writing down some lyrics.
“Patrick.” I hear and nearly jump out of my skin, I turn to find Pete sound asleep in the nearby bed.
“Yeah?” I raise my brow.
“Lay with me.” He murmurs sleepily.
“Um, What?” I choke in utter shock, this was probably the most crazy thing he’d said.
“Please, baby?” I feel the same itch that runs through my body when I’m in a relationship and begin to get jittery, needing to get out.
“Uh, I-I’m… P-Pete? I’m- er, uh, not…” I stammer out anxiously.
His words come out incoherent now and I know I can’t keep doing this anymore…
Pete
I am falling madly in love with Patrick Stump.
This is so bad.
I knew that Patrick won’t ever love me he’s not like that. He tells me all the time, he’s not the ‘forever with you’ type, he’s the ‘hump and dump’ type. It baffles me.
He’s so careful with everybody and everything, not wanting to upset anyone and yet this little ball of happiness is the biggest fucking slut on the face of the earth.
Damn, I want to hate him.
But, who could hate Patrick Stump .
Alex
The room was dim, light seeping in through the old smashed windows and the cracks in the old chipped wood of the abandoned wooden cabin Some light also poured in through the cracks and holes in the ceiling. The cabin was old, rotten, gross and falling to pieces but it was ours . And that’s all that mattered.
Hs fingers run through my somewhat long hair, his forehead pushed firmly to mine, the tips of our noses brushing. Our legs were tangled around each other as we sat across from each other on the ground.
“Lex?” I can feel his warm breath caress my lips.
“Yes, boo?” I coo back softly.
“So, um… What…” He pauses, pulling his head back from mine, “What are we?”
“Alive.” I reply with a coy smile, leaning in to kiss him again but he moves back, detangling himself from me. He seems frustrated by my reply.
“You know what I mean, Alex.” He grumbles, using my full name.
“I don’t know? We’re just friends that are like… More than friends but… Less than lovers… You know?” I let out a shaky breath and an awkward frown.
“No, Alex.” He huffs, “I don’t know.” He stands and starts to pace, “We’re either dating or somebody's being used.”
“It’s not like that! I just don’t want labels and people like, knowing! I like our secret , Jack. I love this .” I frown sadly.
“I don’t ‘ love this ’. I want to hold your hand, kiss you, touch you, love you, wherever and whenever I can. I want to scream my love from the rooftops because, I love you, Alex . You never say it back but I’m fucking madly in love with you and you know it, Alex.” Jack tosses his hands in the air, “I don’t want to be a dirty little secret anymore, Alexander.” I wince at him using my full-on first name.
I let out a soft sigh, “I’m not ready for that… I like how we already are…” My voice cracks with desperation.
“I’m not doing this anymore.” He shakes his head and I feel my heart start to sink, “I’m done… I want to be something that you're proud to call yours.”
I swallow hard, “Wha-... What are you trying to say, Jacky…?” I’m trembling.
“We’re done. This… Is done.” He looks me dead in the eyes as he shoots his words like daggers into me. I let out a sob and then I can’t stop, shaking violently and bawling my eyes out. Jack shakes his head at my tears, turning to leave.
“I love you, Jack!” The words I’d neglected to say for so long finally spilled from me, my voice leaking emotion that spilled over the room.
“Well, you’re too late.”
And he’s gone.
Dallon
I’d been talking with Brendon for about two, almost three, weeks but I already knew this kid was something special. All of my friends were extremely concerned with how attached to this random stranger I’ve become.
