Not In Front Of Me! • Alexia Putellas

Took me a while but I’m finally here with another forgotten birthday angst! Hope you enjoy!

Request: This idea would be amazing: Reader is Mapi’s younger sister and Alexia’s gf and it's her bday and all of the girls seem to have forgotten. Neither Alexia or her sister manage to cheer her up when she comes into the facility and match sadder than ever. Alexia and Mapi had absolutely no idea what was going on and were kind of getting annoyed with Y/N throughout the day and tearing Y/N down even more, which she thought wasn’t possible. Until a journalist asks them in a post match interview what they did for Y/N’s birthday and the whole team is left speechless. They can’t get a hold of Y/N as she disappeared right after the game. They eventually find her after the whole team, especially her two favorite people were sick with worry at her favorite spot on the beach, alone, cold and in tears. You can take the angst level to another dimension

Word count: 2,4k

This was your day, your 25th birthday and to say you were looking forward to today would be an understatement. A week ago you had made plans with Ingrid and Frido to go out for coffee before the match and later that day you’d celebrate with your teammates.

You loved celebrating birthdays with your Barca teammates because it felt like a big family. Everyone had their roles, the responsible ones; Irene and Sandra, the ones more excited about the cake than the celebrations; Mapi, Caro, Marta and Alexia, and the rest were the silly children going crazy. You’d all dance around to the loud music like there was no tomorrow.

There’s a skip in your steps as you arrive in the lounge room looking for the two Scandinavians. It’s not hard to spot them towering over some of the others and you approach them with a wide smile as you put your arms around each of their waists.

“Ready for that coffee date?” they laugh at your excited face as they pull you along and out of the facility and to the coffee shop. You spend the next hour or so with them talking about the Christmas break and sometimes bringing up a memory from your early Barca days. Conversation flows so smoothly that you don’t even realize they haven’t wished you a happy birthday until you’re glancing down at your phone and see the date. It wasn’t like they had to congratulate you on your birthday the second they’d see you but the two of them were usually the firsts to do so.

“We better get going or we’ll be late for the bus” you nod at Frido’s words and the three of you hurry back to the rest of your teammates.

You quickly grab your training bag and shove it into the bottom of the bus before walking over to your girlfriend and placing a kiss on her cheek.

“Hola mi amor” you greet her cheerfully which she doesn’t seem to reciprocate

“Where were you? The three of you could’ve missed the bus or made us late to the stadium Y/N” she lightly scolds you and you frown at her.

“We just had coffee, we made sure to get back in time” she exhales lowly before turning to the bus.

“Come on then cariño”

As you walk the stairs of the bus you find your usual seat next to your sister, it had been an unspoken rule the two of you followed. You’d always sit next to each other before matches no matter what, you could’ve had an argument the day before but sitting together was a must. It was like a pre match superstition. You plop down in the seat next to Mapi who turns to you with a raised eyebrow as you get comfortable. You sit in silence for a while knowing that she was getting in the zone but you grow tired of it quickly.

“Hey Mapi?”

“Hmm?”

“Are we gonna go home for Christmas?”

“Yeah” she answers shortly as she turns back to look out the window, hinting that she wouldn’t like to talk. But like any younger sibling you’d push her just a little more.

“Are you bringing Ingrid with us?” she turns back to you as she answers

“Sí, that’s okay, right?”

“Of course, I love Ingrid!” she nods at you with a slight smile playing on her lips, but she’s also trying to focus on the match ahead of you all and you’re not helping her one bit.

“You know what day it is?” you continue as she stays quiet “It’s weird a year has already passed, I’m-”

“Go annoy someone else Y/n, I don’t have the patience for you right now!” she snaps at you and you stare at her with your mouth slightly parted as you get cut off. She rarely ever talked to you like that.

“Go!” she snaps again with an expectant look. You blink back your tears as you move out of your seat and look for an open seat closest to you. You sit in the empty seat next to Ana-Maria and the blonde gives you a sympathetic look.

“Happy birthday” she whispers into your ear as she pulls you into her side, you had always been close to her, even after her relationship with your sister ended. To know that your sister’s ex remembered your birthday but not your sister was like a knife to your heart.

“Thank you” you sniffle as you lean your head on her shoulder.

“What’s up with you?” your sister asks as you walk into the stadium, the frown having not left your face. You shrug at her.

“You feeling sick or something?”

“I’m fine María” you tell her as you push past her.

“Sure” she grumbles under her breath as she moves to her own locker.

As you make your way into the tunnel you feel a tug on your arm and you’re pulled into a stronger body.

“Happy birthday baby León” the Atlético Madrid goalkeeper greets you and you smile into her embrace.

“Thanks Lola” you’re about to say something else but you’re cut off by the shout of your captain.

“Y/N! Your own team!” you give her a look but she doesn’t budge and so with an apologetic look you move away from Lola and back in line.

“I was just saying hi to her” you mutter from your place behind Alexia.

“I know, but you can do that after the match, okay amor?” she tells you with a quick discreet kiss to your forehead before the two teams start their walk out of the tunnel.

You go into halftime leading 2-1 and five minutes into the second half you’re scoring Barcelona’s third goal. However, that doesn’t mean Alexia lets your mistakes slide as you accidentally give the ball away to the opposition for the second time in a row. She pulls you aside as the ball goes out.

“I don’t care what’s going on, I want you to be here and focusing on the match” are the harsh words that come out of her mouth. You know this is the captain's side of her, the captain that can’t make exceptions for anyone, not even for her girlfriend. Despite many beliefs, the midfielder was the softest person with you behind closed doors, but she was an ambitious player, much like most of you and so that side of her rarely was shown on the pitch. Which is exactly why you know you shouldn’t let her words get to you but with everything that’s been going on today you can’t help but take it to heart. Your best friends have forgotten about your birthday and your girlfriend is angry with you.

The match eventually comes to an end after a long 96 minutes and you’re happy to have your name on the scoreboard twice as Barcelona win 6-1. You’re pulled into the brunette’s side as Alexia puts an arm around your shoulders, a joyful look on her face.

“Good game, you played well, querida!” she tells you enthusiastically but you keep looking forward.

“Mhmm” you hum out as you shrug her arm off and gently move away from her. The midfielder stops in her steps with a frown as she watches you get pulled away by Lola, a smile making its way onto your face. You were always great friends with the goalkeeper, that was not why she was confused but rather at your bad mood. How could you be feeling sad after winning a match? She’s about to walk after you but Irene interrupts her and pulls her away for a post match interview where some of her other girls are already waiting.

“Congratulations on the win! Celebrations are big tonight at Barca after an amazing victory over Atlético Madrid and Y/N León’s birthday is today too!” Alexia, Mapi, Irene and Patri’s faces fall in sync. They’ve totally forgotten about that. Irene and Patri exchange looks while Alexia stares ahead with wide eyes, utterly disappointed in herself. Your sister looks behind the three of them in panic as she searches for your form. You had been talking with Lola only moments ago, where were you now?

“Anything special you’re doing for the birthday girl?” the interviewer speaks eagerly as she moves the microphone over to them.

“Erm-”

“I can’t find her” Mapi whispers so only the captain can hear next to her.

“Excuse us please, lo siento, we gotta fix something” your girlfriend rushes out as she hands back the mic and all four of them take off at the same time, the rest of the team following them to the locker room like a herd of sheep.

“Y/N! Mi amor!” Alexia yells out as they enter only to find your locker empty.

“Where is she?!” your sister speaks in a panicked tone as she puts her hand in her hair.

“What happened?”

“What’s going on?”

Mariona and Sandra ask what everyone else wants to know and the four of them turn to the rest of the team to explain but someone beats them to it.

“You all forgot her birthday”

“Like you didn’t!” Mapi points an accusatory finger at the other blonde, who despite the disappointed look she’s sporting stays calm.

“I didn’t” Ana lets them know.

“Fuck!” Mapi whispers under her breath. “Ale do you know where she went? Come on Ale, you know everything about her!”

The brunette thinks for a second before nodding. It doesn’t take the team long to arrive back to their own training facility where they decide they’d split up to cover more ground, everyone going in pairs to where they thought they’d most likely find you. Alexia and your sister stay back as the others disperse and Mapi looks over at the brunette.

“You know where she is don’t you?” she asks with a knowing look, grinning when the other nods back at her. Despite the situation they were in right now, your sister knew Alexia and you were made for each other. She was it for you and you were it for Alexia.

Without another word the two of them take off to the direction of the beach closest to your shared apartment with your girlfriend. Upon arriving they notice a form sitting at one of the larger rocks, supposedly you, leant back on said rock.

They approach you slowly, taking notice of the training bag by your feet and the Barcelona kit still on you. You’re shivering slightly, the thin hoodie on you not protecting you from the chill air of the evening.

You’re startled as someone sits next to you, you know it’s Mapi but you don’t bother to acknowledge her presence as you keep your gaze fixated onto the water. Your view is soon blocked by Alexia as she sits on your other side, your sister and girlfriend sandwiching you between them.

Alexia’s heart breaks at the sight of your tear stained face and she reaches out to wipe them away but you pull out of her hold. She feels her own eyes well up as she retracts her hand.

“Come on hermana, don’t be like that” your sister pleads but you shut her up with a glare.

“I don’t wanna talk right now” you huff out, though them leaving you alone right now was impossible to ask, not with the state you were in.

“I was really worried when you just left amor, I didn’t know if something could’ve happened to you while you were out alone”

“I’m not a baby” you mutter to Alexia

“I know, I know, but I’m always going to worry about you” she tells you sincerely and you nod at her words, though still not looking at either of them.

“How can I make this right pequeña?” your sister tugs at the sleeve of your hoodie gently.

“You forgot my birthday, both of you, all of you” you speak in despair. “I know it’s stupid that I still get excited about it but-”

“It’s not stupid” both of them cut you off and you stay quiet at that.

“I always look forward to seeing your excited face on your birthday”

This is when Alexia tries again and she slowly reaches out to grab your hand, but you surprise her as you lean into her body, pulling your sister with you until you end up in a heap of tangled limbs.

“Lo siento mucho mi amor”

“Yo también” your sister adds and a small smile makes its way onto your face.

“Fine, but you owe me a cake” you point to the defender who nods eagerly before you turn to look up at your girlfriend. “And you’ve got other ways to make up for this” the brunette catches onto the suggestive tone in your voice and she grins at you as she leans down to kiss you.

“Ew! I did not need to know that!” your sister jokingly gags and you push her away with a laugh of your own.

The three of you settle into a comfortable silence until you notice a group of people making their way onto the beach. Mapi tugs the two of you up and you stand on your feet with Alexia’s hand gripped in your own as you watch confusedly.

“Feliz cumpleaños bebé León!” your teammates scream as they get to you and a wide smile pulls at your lips as you notice the cake in their hands.

“Well you were quick with that one” you mutter to your sister who only winks back at you.

The twenty-three of you sit on the beach as you celebrate your birthday together, apologies thrown in the air along with further ‘Happy Birthday’s and the smile on your lips never leaves your face.

They might have forgotten your birthday, but they still managed to make the most out of today for you and you couldn’t be happier to have such a great group of friends.

“Te amo Ale”

“Te amo mucho mi amor” she tells you fondly as she kisses you and the two of you smile into the kiss as the girls cheer you on.

“Not in front of me Y/N!”

“What? I have to watch you and Ingrid kiss all the time too!”

Bafta isn’t until the 19th, so the day before the kids get back to school.

But I’m with you, I’m not so sure I want them there this year… what we should look forward to is Wales vs England in the rugby on the 25th!

Oh yeah, they go back to school on the 20th, which means we probably won't see William and Catherine next week, yay!

Yeah, I think it would be wise not to go, the BRF has been humiliated too much already because of the Ginger.

By the way, did you see that Netflix is making a movie about Andrew's interview? Rufus Sewell will play Andrew, fun times.

Anon, I want to believe they will go to that game but this is William and Catherine we're talking about, so not expecting anything is the best option.

Day 1: TOMORROW! 🤩 Also random facts + surprise 🎁

I don't know what time is in your country but here is still August 25th. And since TOMORROW (yeah, still can't believe it) is the release of the third movie in its original country, and there were a LOT of interviews throw at us, here are some random facts that I remember. Stay tune for a surprise:

- According to one interview, Ramona ruled for a couple of hours (other said that three days) before she was tragically murdered by someone. Hermes? Those that mean she didn't make it?

- Gato said about Mummy regarding the new technologies that he is "like a child who just discovered the internet and stuff", so he goes all crazy over them to the point of being annoying, like if you were his parental figure. At least the phone dissappears in Paris' sewers.

- The references for this movie were Pixar classics like Toy Story, movies of adventures from the 80's and even recent ones like the 2017 Mummy movie that the director said it's a pity it was not as sucessful as it deserves and that he it is a shame this cancelled the monster franchise for Universal Studios. Another great reference for this movie are the Mummy movies starring Brendan Fraser.

- There has been many reviews in different languages (spanish, french and even german) that start with the phrase "Tad discovers an egyptian sarcophagus in ancient INCAN pyramid in MEXICO"

...

...Why? Why there are more than eight reviews who said the same thing? People... Incans were south american, not mexican! *screams in peruvian* THE DISRESPECT! We are in 2022! Okay...

- Moving on, Gato said that if the third movie is sucessful, the franchise could still continue to grow, there are ideas about a fourth one, a spin off and he even mentioned prequels. I wonder if we are going to see more lore of Sara or Mummy, since those are the ideal candidates to make more content.

- Speaking of Gato, there has been an important interview with him and he revealed some facts:

What he wants the most to be acomplished in this movie is that people fall in love with Ramona and Mummy, especially Ramona since she is a new and amazing character.

He also mentioned that it was his two main writers' idea to name the pharaoh "Ramona" as a play of words of complicated egyptian names that carry pauses and are asociated with egyptian gods, so that's how Ramona Ra-Amon-Ah's name was born.

People said to him many times that Tad is an alter ego of him and he said that it was partially true in the aspect of being determinate and do better, but also he relates to Mummy since he is used to be the "adorable idiot" in his youth and also because it's the kind of personality to be the most fun and enjoyable to write. So to resume, he is both Tad and Mummy.

He said that the movie is still familiar (not only for kids) while having more of an adult tone and he is satisfied with the job the writers have done.

- There was another interview starring Sara's, Victoria's and Ryan's voice actors. I will remember most of what they said since it's an interview of three minutes and I have work/things to do. So:

They consider that the story not having villains is a great idea and message since in real life there are no good or bad people, just people whose actions have sometimes bad consequences.

Sara and Victoria were very close in their younger years until both had different views about life and work so they separated and this doesn't mean that Victoria is in the wrong because, sometimes best friends part ways, many times for seeing things differently. It happens.

Ryan's voice actor, José Corbacho, said that this movie is about recognizing what is really important and that is not taking the people close to you for granted, you could be ignoring their potential and worth.

He mentined that in the movie, Tad is a clumsy and a fool, like many real life men, that women are superior in intelligence and doing things right and then there is Mummy who he thinks is still gender fluid (so I think he is in-between those two facts)

José mentioned that the third Tad movie reflects the reality of the world and that is: Women are better at everything they do than men (well, thank you mister Corbacho 😄)

And last, he mentioned something that @tammyhybrid21 has been preaching since 2020. That the archeology's elite and most of its integrants are awful, self absorbed people who dissmiss others.

And some other final facts are:

- Ramona is 100% a mummy from high society and thinks she is the best of the best, so this is why she has many friction with Mummy.

- Tad said to Mummy before going to the expedition in Mexico that "he can't leave the apartment at any costs" and apparently he has waited a lot of time and one day became very bored. That is when he found out about "buying on the internet" and used a credit card Tad gave him for emergencies to buy all the fun stuff & becoming an "compulsive buyer"

And with this last fact, I will repeat something I said in a post I did weeks ago: "Mummy is me. I am Mummy"

Why, you will ask?

Because... surprise ladies, gentlemen, Mummy fans and non-binary pals! I used my card to buy the BOOK OF THE THIRD MOVIE online!

So that means that now I have the means and "forbidden knowledge" to answer most of your deepest, biggest questions (or maybe some of them if there is information that is not shown)

It didn't cost much. In fact, tickets for the movie + popcorn and sodas would have cost more than the book. And I'm not a compulsive buyer, I swear.

Where was I? Oh, yes:

Just change "jar of dirt" for "book"

SCREW YOU HAVING TO WAIT 'TILL OCTOBER FOR LIVING IN SOUTH AME-

...ouch. Still got the book.

But gotta read it tomorrow. Like I said, I have things to do. See you on the other side, nothing will ever be the same.

A plus before midnight: The soundtrack

#tadeo jones #tadeo jones 3 #tad the lost explorer #tad the lost explorer 3 #tadeo jones meta #tadeo jones book #enrique gato #tad stones #mummy (tadeo jones)#sara lavroff #victoria moon #ramona (tadeo jones)#Ra-Amon-Ah #I got a jar of dirt!#fun fact: Captain Jack Sparrow's VA in spanish is the same one who does the voice of Mummy in Spain #and it is beautiful #tad 3 countdown

Something for the category "anything!!!": Your predictions for the skiing world championships? 🥺

ohhh, that's difficult!! what i think will happen: i think Odi will win Super-G and Giant Slalom, Aleks will win Downhill and get 3rd in Super-G, Atle or Lucas (if he gets fit until the championships) will get an Slalom-podium, Henrik might get a podium but will get fourth in his other discipline, Manu (Feller) will get a DNF in the Slalom after being in top 3 after the first run, Lena Dürr will get a podium, a little surpise on men's downhill podium, Marcel will be there talking in an interview about how happy he is working with Henrik, Slalom 2nd run will have a decreasing slope quality and someone of 25th-30th after first run will make a big jump forward and the swiss will win the team competition

yeah, i have no idea what i'm talking about but maybe one of these things will be true (mostly Odi winning everything <3)

thank you so much lovely anon 🤗🤗

Sorry for not responding the last couple of days.. I've been super busy trying to get last minute things ready. How is Christmas in 7 days??! But also I really need it to be here already so I can just sit and relax at long last. I'm only working 3 days this week and I'm so looking forward to having a break. Will you work right up until the 25th?

The Hip are definitely our Canadian band and will be forever missed.

Yeah I don't think the Gary Cherone era of Van Halen is widely remembered or thought of fondly by fans lol

I'll certainly be doing the secret santa next year. It's such a great idea.

Ok I'm in love with Jasmine 😍 How precious is she?? I just want to smoosh her face and give her ear scratches! Have you always had a dog?

Davey Havok you say 🤔 I don't know much about AFI but a girl can just search Pinterest for different reasons right?

Oh how fun. It would have been awesome if you got to meet them. Maybe next time 🤞

Pearl Jam was a band that was always in my life but I was only a casual listener until about 3 yrs ago. I starting watching old concerts and interviews on YT and quickly became obsessed with them. Then I had to buy all their newer albums as I only had the first few ones.

Ooh Pad Thai is delicious. Comfort dessert? I love cheesecake but also cream puffs and then there's also lava cake 😋 I may indulge too much over the holidays with sweets but that's what it's about. What about you? If you could only have one dessert for the end of time, what would you pick?

Also some of my mutuals posted some cute pics of your Greta boys playing laser tag the other day. Omg how fun are those guys? I love when bands don't take themselves to seriously.

My goal today is finally get my tree up.. I've been putting this off all week. You're more than welcome to pop on down and help 😌

Can I tempt you with Eggnog and Fruitcake? Though I don't eat Fruitcake people insist on bringing it. Do you like it? I don't mind the flavours of it but I'm not a fan of dried fruit.

🤶

And I am so sorry for not responding omg, I've been a mess the last couple days 🙃 I work until Friday and then I'm off for a while!!!

100% about The Hip

Yeah I'm probably gonna ignore that VH era 😂

I love Jasmine so much!! She's my first dog and I got her when she was a puppy almost 6 years ago!

Idk much about the band either, Jonno just really loves Davey 😅 Ah I do the same on Pinterest (I did that when I first got into GVF)

Ahhhh very nice!!! I honestly need more PJ CD's, I have an original copy of Ten from 1991!

YUM those are soooo good, I mean in the summer it's Cookie Dough ice cream but any holiday it's apple pie and also during Christmas it's Nanaimo Bars!! Honestly, any of those three I would choose I can't decide!! Do you have a favourite fruit?

I LOVE THEM SO MUCH (and yes I'm still going insane over Danny playing laser tag!) They are such fun guys and once we become mutuals I can try and help you choose your favourite member 👀

Oh man I'd help you put it up for sure!!!

Okay don't yell at me, I ever had either one BUT I've always loved gingerbread and sugar cookies during the holidays, in fact the other day I tried a Sugar Cookie Oat Latte at Starbucks and it was good! Do you like gingerbread and sugar cookies? Have you ever built a gingerbread house?

The Party Guest

Jaime’s second contract, or: The Do No Harm Christmas Special. Call me, Hallmark.

This is post-Torley, post-meeting-Sebastian, shortly post-surgery. Full disclosure, this is an idea I’ve been sitting on for a year, and I’ve wrestled with it for 3 days straight, and it just... did NOT come out how I envisioned it. But I put enough effort and feeling into it that I’m posting it here and you can do with it what you will.

WARNINGS: BBU/BBU Adjacent, references to homophobic/”traditionalist” family, entitled old money trust fund babies (which deserve a warning of their own IRL i think), noncon touching/kissing, alcohol/intoxication

The duration of the contract is one day. Twenty-four hours. It’s his first since Mr. Torley, and coming off of that six month assignment, followed by a brief medical decommission, he has no idea what to expect from this.

The Keeper of the contract is a young man named Bryan Laskey, who can’t be older than his late twenties. This alone is already a strange adjustment. From the moment he met Jaime in one of the Facility’s warmly-decorated interview rooms, he has been unwaveringly kind. He seems genuinely pleased with him, though Jaime hasn’t done much more than offer him a slew of wary smiles and false pleasantries. But it’s a welcome comfort, feeling like he has done something right to earn this man’s approval. This, too, is an adjustment for him, but one he is happy to make.

It’s Christmas Eve when Bryan comes to pick him up for the start of the contract. That’s what he is told in his final briefing before leaving the Facility and being escorted into his keeper’s black SUV. He hasn’t been given any other information about the assignment, other than that he will be expected to make a public appearance and is to be returned to the site no later than 11 a.m. on December 25th.

Nine hours down, fifteen to go.

The first thing Bryan does is take him to a tailor. Everything has been purchased ahead of time - clothes, shoes, belt, accessories - laid out for him like he is a doll. Jaime is fastened inside of a burgundy, velvet blazer that probably costs as much as the contract itself and a pair of black pants that feel like silk against his legs. The hems hit at just the right length on his arms and at his ankles, the torso hugging his narrow frame in all the right places. He feels expensive in a way he never has before.

They go to a private salon after that, where there is only one man working at a single station. He has a sleek, black apron, a mustache that curls at each end, and he offers Jaime a glass of tea before they get to work on his hair. When Jaime looks to Bryan, hesitant, he grants his permission without hesitation, telling the stylist to give him as much as he would like.

“What’s your name?” Bryan asks him when they are alone in the car again. He lets him sit in the passenger seat, which he has done in his life as many times as he can probably count on two hands. He tenses immediately at the question.

“It is within your rights to designate a name--”

“Yeah, yeah,” he interrupts, and Jaime snaps his mouth closed, shrinking back into the soft upholstery. “I know how that whole speech goes. I mean what is your real name? The one you had before all this?”

He doesn’t seem angry, or even annoyed, but still Jaime is careful to keep his voice low and his posture stiff as he shifts his eyes slightly to the driver’s seat. “I-... I’m not supposed to use that name anymore.”

“What if I’m directly asking you to?”

Jaime’s breathing starts to pick up, and he does his best to at least conceal the sound of it. The scar on his hand -- a thin, white line trailing from the base of his thumb up to the knuckle of his index finger -- is mostly faded by now, but he rubs the pad of his finger back and forth over the raised skin as he feels his Keeper’s gaze on him. A nervous habit he hasn’t quite dropped.

“I’m sorry,” Jaime breathes, trying to keep his voice even. He knows better than to act afraid of a Keeper until he deduces that’s what they want from him. “I’m really-- I’m not supposed to-...”

“Hey.” The sudden softness in Bryan’s voice startles him enough that Jaime allows himself to look at him fully, finding a kind smile when he does. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have asked twice.”

Jaime winces. Never make your Keeper ask twice.

The car makes a right turn and rolls to a stop in front of an iron gate. Beyond it is a long driveway that winds into a tangle of trees, stretching far enough back from the road that he can’t see any house it might lead to. Bryan shifts the car into park with an automatic dial.

“Listen,” he says, angling his body slightly toward him. “Can I be honest with you?”

Jaime, unsure of what to do with being put in the position of granting anyone permission to do anything, simply nods. “Yes, Sir.”

Bryan chuckles, shaking his head. “Bryan. Please.”

“Yes, Bryan.”

He chuckles softly again, though Jaime isn’t sure why. “Okay. The truth is, I’m bringing you tonight as my date.” Jaime blinks at him, pointedly keeping his expression flat. “My dad’s side of the family does this whole Christmas Eve dinner party every year, and he invites all these big-wigs from his company and all of their families, and it’s this whole thing that I hate going to every year, especially when I’m the only one of my brothers showing up without a girlfriend.”

When he doesn’t say anything right away, Bryan tilts his head forward with a knowing smirk.

“My family is a bit… traditional, if you know what I mean,” he says co-conspiratorially. “I realize this probably seems a little pathetic. Maybe it is. I’m just… I’m tired of hiding this part of me from them. And I wanted a safe way to test the waters. If that makes any sense.”

Jaime nods slowly, making sure he fully understands what is being instructed before he speaks.

“I’m… pretending to be your boyfriend,” he repeats tentatively, terrified that he has somehow misstepped and misunderstood and would be punished for suggesting such a thing.

But Bryan gives him a sheepish grin. “If you’re comfortable with that?” He asks sheepishly, though surely he knows that Jaime’s comfort does not factor in here. “I know there are probably easier ways I could have gone about this. I probably could have offered some guy on Tinder twenty dollars and a free meal for the same result. Or like, you know, gotten a real date.” He laughs, and Jaime offers up his best attempt at an echo of the sound. Bryan’s eyes drop away from him momentarily. “Honestly?” He says “I know people who buy contracts. My dad’s friends, sometimes his company… I’ve heard some nasty rumors about what can go on in some of those situations.”

Jaime tucks his chin against his chest, now both of them avoiding each other’s eyes. He knows better than to go near this line of conversation if he can help it.

“Hey, I’m not saying any of it is true. I don’t know much about the system, and I don’t know anything about what you’ve been through. I just thought… you know, if I could give somebody in your position one night of easy work with me, it’s one night you don’t have to spend in a shitty situation. Right?”

“Right.” The word comes out like muscle memory, his mind and body like a loaded spring, always ready to affirm, agree, submit without question. But full comprehension floats somewhere above him, just out of reach. It’s been so long, he can’t even remember if he has ever taken a kind gesture at face value. He’s always listening for the catch, reading between the lines to find the words behind the words. Bryan is looking at him through a pair of earnest, blue eyes, but all Jaime can think about is how this can be used to hurt him.

“I mean it,” Bryan adds after a moment. “If you’re not comfortable with this, we can call it off. I don’t mean to force you into anything. Just say the word and we’ll go.”

Go where? Jaime turns his eyes back to the gate in front of them and tries to picture whatever house party awaits them at the other end of the drive. It’s been a long time since he’s been around a crowd, and he was never good with them in the first place, but if there is one thing he knows for certain, it’s that it has to be a better alternative to being taken back to the Facility due to refusal to comply. They make it quite clear in training what happens under those circumstances, and he is sure Handler Smith would be all too happy to deliver the punishment himself.

“What should I call myself?” Jaime asks, and Bryan’s expression melts into relief.

“Whatever name you want,” he says. “It doesn’t have to be your real name if that makes you uncomfortable. You pick.”

The rare burden of choice, and the inherent knowledge that there is a right and a wrong, suddenly presses down on his chest. He closes his eyes, swiping through some tucked away mental database of names, and suddenly everything is blank. He can’t think of a single name other than Jaime, which he absolutely cannot use, and it suddenly makes sense that his worldview would have shrunken so much after six months of being almost completely isolated to a single home, never getting to meet new people with new names, and almost everyone he has met has been cruel or apathetic or--

A familiar face surfaces in his mind. He opens his eyes.

“Tate?” he speaks softly, the name like a balm on his lips.

“Tate,” Bryan echoes back, clucking his tongue. There is a brief lapse in silence in which Jaime decides he has almost definitely made the wrong decision, and then Bryan nods in his periphery. “Huh. I like it.”

Jaime’s chest deflates with a long breath of relief as Bryan shifts the car into drive once more. He rolls down the window when he approaches a keypad just outside the gate, enters a four-digit code, then smiles at Jaime once more as the gates slide open for them.

“Alright then, Tate. It’s showtime.”

***

The house is unlike any Jaime has seen before. Even Mr. Torley’s, which was spacious and pristine by anyone’s standards, pales in comparison to this long, pillared structure that looks more like a museum than someone’s family home.

There is an echo as they step into the foyer, slick marble clicking under their shoes. The murmur of crowd chatter floats in from down the hall, along with the smell of something warm and sweet, layered over something savory. Jaime’s stomach rumbles despite the sandwich he had been given before his haircut.

“May I take your coat, sir?”

A new voice appears at his side, and Jaime blinks to see Bryan handing off his jacket to a sullen man a few years his senior, dressed in all black. Jaime’s eyes meet his for half a second before they are drawn lower, to the spot just above the knot of his tie. The collar stands out against the man’s olive skin with striking boldness, and it takes every bit of restraint in Jaime’s body not to reach up and touch the thick turtleneck around his own throat to make sure it is still covered.

“Sir…?” The man repeats, a familiar, anxious hesitation in his voice. “Your coat?”

“Yes.” Jaime clears his throat, shouldering out of his own borrowed jacket as smoothly as he can. “Sorry. Um. Thank you.”

The man flashes a smile that doesn’t quite meet his eyes and turns down the opposite hall. Jaime is left momentarily stunned by the surreal shift in dynamic. He feels… untethered, and so far out of place. A slow, prickling panic makes its way up his spine, sweat breaking through the layers of these expensive clothes adorning his body. He swallows hard, trying to get a hold of his emotions before they get the better of him.

“Sorry.” He jumps slightly when Bryan leans in, lowering his voice. “I didn’t think to mention… my dad always likes to hire a Companion crew for his company parties. Just catering and coat check and all that. I should have given you a heads up.”

Jaime forces a smile, hoping but doubting it is more convincing than the other man’s had been. “It’s not a problem,” he says politely.

“Shall we?”

He looks down at the arm Bryan has extended, and he only hesitates a moment before slipping his hand through and allowing himself be led into the party.

The mouth of the hall opens up into an extravagant dining room with ceilings so tall Jaime has to crane his neck just to get a glimpse of the ornate copper tile. The party is in full swing, with guests mingling in clumps of three or four throughout the room, only a small handful beginning to find their seats at the long dinner table. Jaime’s eyes automatically find the quick, graceful figures in black that weave among the guests, carrying trays and filling glasses and sporting the same bold collars that Jaime feels bumping against his own throat with every swallow.

“Welcome to the jungle,” Bryan murmurs as they make their way into the crowd. “Just stick beside me and we’ll get through this together, okay?”

Inexplicably, Jaime feels his fingers tighten around his Keeper’s bicep, drawing himself closer to his side.

“Bryan!” A tall, balding man with wide shoulders and narrow hips -- a soft-edged mirror of his keeper’s figure -- steps into their path as they move further into the room. The woman on his arm wears a near-identical imprint of Bryan’s facial features. “I was getting worried you might not make it.”

“I’ve arrived fashionably late for twenty-eight years running,” Bryan replies coolly. “Why stop now?” He breaks away from Jaime’s hold long enough to lean in and kiss the woman on the cheek. “Hi, mom. Dad.”

When he steps back, Jaime feels their collective gaze shift onto him and does his best not to tense under the attention.

“And who is this?” his mother asks through a polite smile.

“This… is Tate,” Bryan says, then turns to meet Jaime’s eyes for a fleeting moment and smiles. “My boyfriend.”

Based on Bryan’s speech in the car, Jaime had tried to prepare himself for varying degrees of adverse response to this introduction, but even though they don’t look entirely pleased with the arrangement, the Laskeys don’t appear to be shocked, either.

“Tate,” Mrs. Laskey repeats tightly, then offers out a hand. Jaime tries really hard not to have a crisis over the simple act of shaking it like a human being. “It’s good to meet you. Welcome to our home.”

It’s probably just the high stress party atmosphere getting to him, but Jaime almost swears he sees her eyes flicker down to where his collar rests beneath the turtleneck and back up again.

Bryan’s father does not reach for his hand at all.

“Well then,” his mother breaks away, folding her hands in front of herself. “You two should find your seats. Dinner is about to be served.”

***

Dinner goes… surprisingly smoothly. Bryan and Jaime manage to land a couple of seats far away from his parents and siblings, which seems to make his Keeper happy. This simple fact puts Jaime’s mind at ease just enough to get through the meal.

The food is delicious. He can’t deny that. After weeks of Facility nutrient loaf and protein shakes, Jaime’s body could sing at the taste of real meat and vegetables and potatoes on his tongue. The full feeling that grows in his belly as his plate begins to clear is one he hasn’t felt in a long time. He has to consciously slow himself down so he doesn’t make himself sick.

The only thing that can sour the taste in his mouth is the glimpse of black sleeves that appear and retract silently down the line of party guests as the workers refill glasses and take empty plates away. It feels unnatural to be seated at the table when they are working. There is an instinctive itch under his skin, a phantom electric shock telling him to get up, to move, to serve, to work. But he is bound to this chair by his own contract, unbeknownst to everyone else in the room, so he is stuck with the guilt of sitting there and eating course after course of Christmas dinner, knowing from experience just how long it might have been since these workers had their last meal.

“This isn’t going so bad.”

Jaime snaps from his trance as his Keeper addresses him, forcing his eyes to his.

“Turns out my parents are too busy being the perfect hosts to actually give a shit about who I brought to the table.”

Jaime turns up the corners of his mouth on instinct. “I’m glad it’s going well,” he says, even though Bryan looks a little more upset than his words let on. It’s not Jaime’s place to question or to pry, but he does feel the faintest twinge of sadness for him.

“Hey.” A warm hand lands on Jaime’s shoulder, the thumb dragging softly over the velvet texture of his blazer. His Keeper is smiling at him again with those same soft eyes. “I’m glad you’re here with me tonight. It’s better not facing it alone.”

“I am happy to be here,” he says, but even he hears how flatly his inflection falls. Bryan must hear it as well, because his expression falls, and a spike of panic splits through Jaime’s core at the prospect of having disappointed him.

He leans in closer, and Jaime detects traces of expensive cologne on his jacket. It’s subtle and fresh and smells nothing like the thick clouds that used to suffocate Jaime in Mr. Torley’s master bedroom. “I… understand this whole thing is probably unusual for you,” he says quietly. “But you don’t have to be so formal with me. I want you to just… have fun tonight. Be yourself, okay? You don’t have to be anything else with me.”

Be yourself.

If his goal is to get Jaime to relax, then he clearly doesn’t understand how that one simple instruction is enough to send him spiraling into a full crisis. Jaime hasn’t been permitted to be himself in so long that he fears he doesn’t know who that is anymore.

***

“Can I say something a little crazy?”

They’re in the car, gliding down the dark highway toward Bryan’s apartment. The champagne buzz has faded to a warm glow that lingers in the apples of his cheeks, and the heat inside the car is the comfortable kind that melts the snowflakes on impact as they fall against the windows. Jaime lets his head fall to the side so he can watch them land and disappear as the trees rush past behind them.

He turns to his Keeper when the question rouses him from a momentary trance.

“Of course,” he says. Maybe it’s the lingering traces of intoxication, but he wonders, somewhat bitterly, if the people who buy contracts ever tire of hearing the same recycled affirmations, or if they don’t even notice the things their servants say at all.

Bryan glances over at him somewhat shyly before turning his eyes back to the road.

“I didn’t expect to feel this way about you.”

Jaime sobers just a little bit. He turns his own gaze to the side, then back toward the windshield. He thinks about asking what he means by that, but Jaime either doesn’t really want to know the answer or he’s afraid it’s not the kind of question he’s supposed to ask without specific prompting.

“It’s corny, right?” Bryan continues, and Jaime almost thinks he detects an edge of anxiety to his voice. Like he’s actually nervous about approaching this topic of conversation. “I mean, that’s something straight out of a dime store romance novel. Fake-date-turned-real-feelings bullshit. Not super original of me. It’s just… having you there, with my family, and you making everything seem so much less awful than it usually is…” He punctuates the end of his thought with a shake of his head and a nervous laugh. Jaime twists his hands in his lap.

“Am I making you uncomfortable? Oh god— I’m sorry, does this cross a line? I didn’t mean to-…”

“No,” Jaime answers automatically, convincingly, even though uncomfortable doesn’t come close to covering the way he feels about this turn of events. “You’re fine. I’m fine.”

“Good.” Bryan turns long enough to smile at him again. “Okay, good. The last thing I want to do is put any pressure on you, you know that, right? Especially after what you did for me tonight. I mean it, this was the most enjoyable time I’ve had at that stupid Christmas dinner in years.”

He resents it for all he’s worth, but that verbal approval warms his skin like a beam of sunlight. He feels himself relax slightly into the passenger seat.

“I was thinking… and again, fully aware I’m going out on a limb here— maybe you’d want to see each other again sometime?”

Jaime blinks, shifting his eyes to him and back to center. “I’m… of course, my contract is open to whoever works out an agreement with the administrative office.”

“So formal,” Bryan tries for another chuckle, but it falls short. “Sorry. I really don’t mean to be insensitive. Like I said, I’ve never done anything like this before, you know, with the system, and I definitely did not anticipate a connection like this.”

There is a lull in the conversation, during which Jaime panics internally about what he can possibly say in response to that, but Bryan is the one to break it again.

“I hope they aren’t horrible to you,” he says, out of nowhere. “The others who… purchase your time. I don’t know if they are, or if you are allowed to talk about it, but I want you to know you deserve to be treated with kindness. Maybe… maybe if I do buy another contract with you, or another few, I could at least guarantee you a few days of peace at a time.”

Despite his instincts, there is a flash of this proposal that crosses Jaime’s mind; a mental image of a world in which this Keeper is as genuine as he claims to be. He hasn’t touched Jaime all night, not in any way that could be construed as violent or overtly sexual. As frightening a thing it is to admit, Jaime hasn’t experienced a night as harmless as this in a long time.

He pictures what it might be like if Bryan means what he says. If he does want to see Jaime again, just for the sake of seeing him like a normal fucking person and not because he wants to watch him squirm or sweat or suffer. He pictures time away from the Facility and the electric clip and Handler Smith’s greedy hands. He imagines a full belly and a warm car and soft clothes that feel like silk against his skin. He wonders, dangerously, what it might feel like to be held by someone who doesn’t try to push it any further than that.

It’s a pipe dream. It’s high fantasy in a world like Jaime’s, and there is nothing as self-destructive as allowing himself to believe that anything like that could happen for him.

Still, the image lingers. And his Keeper is expecting a response.

“I think I would really like that.”

***

Jaime is given the master bedroom after Bryan bashfully admits that he hasn't had time to set up the guest room in his new place yet. Jaime had insisted, of course, that he would be happy taking the sofa (or the floor, or the fucking bathtub) to sleep on, but Bryan had doubled down, and Jaime is well enough trained not to decline to the point of resistance.

The bed is huge and soft and neatly made. A California King, Bryan had called it. It reminds him entirely too much of Mr. Torley’s, but the luxury of getting to lie down in it alone makes all the difference in the world.

After Bryan brings him some water for the nightstand, he leaves with a friendly ‘goodnight’ and an insistence that he come wake him should he need anything at all during the night. When he closes the door behind him, Jaime’s body melts into the mattress. The combination of the long day and the out-of-practice social skills and the alcohol render his body boneless and heavy, and this bed feels like a fucking cloud underneath him, and in the end Jaime doesn’t stand a chance.

Regardless of his razor-sharp instinct to stay on guard for as long as he can, it’s mere minutes before his eyes slip shut against the snow-dusted penthouse view.

When he rouses again, it’s to pitch black silence. The snow outside has stopped. There’s-… there’s a hand in his pants and warm breath on his neck. Jaime blinks and allows himself half a moment of groggy panic before arching into the touch the way he knows Mr. Torley likes it.

But this isn’t--

He’s not--

Jaime blinks again and his thoughts shift into place like pins in a lock. A warm mouth covers his with the taste of expensive champagne, the hand picking up a steady rhythm, and Jaime forces his body to surrender and his mind to evacuate. When Bryan climbs on top of him, he focuses his energy on drawing breath beneath the added weight instead of the traitorous reactions of his own body.

“I knew you felt it, too,” Bryan whispers into the pulse point of his neck. “Just relax, baby. I’m going to take care of you.”

Jaime lets the sound of despair that balloons in his chest be crushed along with his hope and molded into a soft whine instead. He tells himself it doesn’t matter. It all sounds the same when they’re not really listening.

I'm so curious about that Jack characters. On one hand they invented him just for the show and on the other hand his name (and I'd guess his title) are too spoilery to reveal. Like, he must be related to some character we know from the books (a Sterling, a Beckett, idk a Bridgerton uncle?) but how would that be a spoiler urggh. This is what I've been thinking about to not spiral into weird Kathony theories and yet here I am 😂

Yeah they are so secretive about Jack. Portia mentioned that he is a Featherington cousin in that latest yt video. Also his character description said that he is connected to the Bridgerton's as well. So I have no idea about his character. I read someone say in an interview that anything about his character would be a spoiler atm. So I guess we'll have to wait until 25th. Though I'm lowkey shipping him with Portia lol.

GRYLES!!!

Rebuilding the Gryles Timeline expertly crafted here because I’m always afraid of broken links and people going private and losing data.

Not only is there a ton of great evidence that these guys were dating such as Harry leaving Nick’s place in the morning wearing the same clothes as he’d worn the night before, I’ve also got a friend who works in the UK music industry and she did tell me these guys did date. Nick is 100% out as gay so it really does all add up.

Gryles very obviously takes place during Haylor, debunking Harry as the 1989 muse, and if it’s not Harry you do have to wonder... who with green eyes and an obsession with Alice and Wonderland was heavily featured in Taylor’s life and then disappeared before 1989 - a breakup album about someone with green eyes who seems to relate to Alice in Wonderland drops?

You get it.

Anyway here’s Gryles:

This is a little game I like to call "let's talk about Nick/Harry dates and how they line up with Harry leaving and entering the country".

06. February 5th 2012 - Harry and Nick go to a Super Bowl party together.

One Direction in Sweden February 12th - 14th. (Came home by train on the 14th.)

07. February 14, 2012 - VALENTINE'S DAY!

08. February 18, 2012 - Stella McCartney Fashion show with Nick's mom.

09. February 21, 2012 - Brit Awards!

10. February 22, 2012 - They attend a party together. (Nick might have been DJing?)

11. February 23, 2012 - Harry spotted leaving Nick Grimshaw's flat in the same outfit he was wearing the night before.

The morning of February 23rd One Direction flies to the US for their tour and doesn't return to the UK until April 24th, 2012.

This trip is supposedly where Haylor 1.0 happens. Harry supposedly meets Taylor at the KCA’s on March 31 and they fall for one another. Taylor supposedly goes to NYC to be with Harry (even though she spends the whole time with Dianna) during the first week of April. Then they supposedly enter into a long distance relationship that is broken up because Harry was seen out with another girl.

All the while the last thing Harry does before he leaves the UK is spend the night with Nick and then the first thing he does is goes back to him.

Yeah, I’m not buying Haylor 1.0 it seems pretty clear to me that Taylor wanted to pin I Knew You Were Trouble on Harry as a big pop anthem to support her transition to pop. I think it’s even possible they faked Harry being spotted out with that girl or perhaps he and Nick had some kind of agreement. I’m not saying Gryles was always exclusive (they may have been), but regardless I don’t see Red era Taylor being cool enough to share her boyfriend with a man.

12. April 25, 2012 - Nick and Harry out together the morning after he returned.

Harry also calls into Nick's radio show on the 25th and confirms that the first thing he did upon returning on the 24th was meet up with Nick and Matt Fincham for drinks so one can theorize he probably crashed w/ Nick that night.

Harry goes to LA by himself on May 1st and returns to the UK on the 5th.

May 5th, 2012 - Harry out with Annie Mac and Nick. (Thanks to my anon for clueing me into this little gem of information.)

13. May 7th, 2012 - Harry and Nick out with friends

One Direction goes to Sweden from May 10th to May 16th.

14. May 17, 2012 - The Sun reports Harry driving Nick to work.

Also out shopping together

15. May 19, 2012 - Nick posts a picture to his instragram from the Kanye West/Jay Z show at the O2.

Who cares right? So he went to see a show. But then.

Hey guess what happened the very next day? One Direction flew to Boston on May 20th, 2012 to start their summer tour in the U.S. They're gone from the 20th to July 3rd.

16. July 5, 2012 - Nick and Harry attend the launch of Tinie Tempah's shoes line.

There's some downtime and vacation time here where Harry disappears for a week while Louis is France w/ Eleanor, Niall goes to Spain, Liam and Danielle are on vacation, etc and then One Direction goes back to work July 11th recording and doing photo shoots.

17. July 19, 2012 - Harry goes out with Nick and Aimee and tweets this.

18. August 10, 2012 - Harry attends Nick's 28th birthday party at La Bodega Negra.

Pregaming before the party!

Outside La Bodega Negra

19. August 11, 2012 - Primrose Hill picnic

20. August 20, 2012 - One Direction visit Nick at BBCR1 to announce their headlining of the BBC Radio 1 Teen Choice Awards.

21. August 25, 2012 -

Nick and Harry go to lunch. (Would also like to point out that they are switching places and that Harry is going to the driver's side of Nick's car :333)

and then to Reading Festival

then Nick accompanies Harry to Liam's party at Funky Buddha

and then they leave together and go see Rita Ora at G.A.Y.

22. August 26, 2012 - The morning after, Nick tweets a shot of his hangover breakfast from Harry's Range Rover (Nick owns a Mercedes).

then a lunch date with several people

They spend this entire day together and this is the day the pics of them in the grocery store are taken where Nick buys Harry a banana, etc

and then Harry drops Nick off for his nighttime show and picks him up again to take him to/stay with him while Nick DJs at Wonderland nightclub.

(Although, lbr. Given what we learn from Nick's final nighttime show about how often Harry hung around the studio, he probably never left.)

Wonderland! (the only time that fucking song has any bearing on Harry and he’s off being a MLM king)

23. August 28, 2012 - Leaving Nick's flat

spotted in the studio w/ Nick at BBCR1

24. August 30, 2012 - Harry films the Breakfast Show advert for Nick's #Team Grimmy commercial and then they go to Mahiki Club that night.

25. August 31, 2012 - Harry goes with Nick to his DJ gig at Paradise

and then to karaoke afterward

The lo and behold One Direction flies to Florida the very next day to film their Pepsi commercial. They're gone until September 11th.

on September 6, 2012 Taylor has Sushi with Ed and Harry in LA supposedly signaling the start of Haylor 2.0 as if Harry is not fully boyfriends with Nick.

26. September 12, 2012 - Nick's final nighttime show. (this was a gif of them being cute and playing around but I was too lazy to bring it over, you get it they’re touchy, flirty, and playful):

Nick and Aimee go on vacation together from the 14th to the 18th.

27. September 18, 2012 - This dude says he spotted Harry Styles waiting in arrivals at the airport while waiting for his sister's flight to arrive insinuating perhaps Harry was traveling with Nick and Aimee:

28. September 20, 2012 - iTunes Festival where One Direction was interviewed by Nick and Annie Mac

29. Harry calls into Nick's first Breakfast Show on September 25, 2012. Then they meet up after to see Perks of Being a Wallflower together. I can't find the tweets from the ladies who saw them there, but Nick and Emma Watson confirm later that Harry was indeed there.

30. September 29, 2012 - Spotted at Waitrose together and then the following morning Nick regales his listeners with the tale of a Spinach pie he made for a ~friend~.

31. October 5th (or 6th?), 2012 - Preparation for Ladz FM

But also on October 5th, Taylor is on Nick’s show:

32. October 6, 2012 - Ladz FM

Supposedly on this show Nick gives Harry hell for Taylor, the Haylor timeline I like puts it this way:

“One Direction and Harry make an appearance on Nick’s show the following day, and they talk about Taylor on-air for 4 minutes straight. Nick teases Harry by saying “Ol’ Swiftyyyy” over and over again when she is brought up in the conversation.” Yup that’s right, Nick was giving his own boyfriend shit about his fake girlfriend 😭😭😭 this is why I fuck w Nick’s energy.

then they went for lunch in notting hill (no Taylor? why not Harry aren’t you so happy to be back with her and in love w her?)

33. October 7, 2012 - BBC Teen Choice Awards

One Direction doing promotion for the new album.

Paris - October 11, 2012

Ireland - October 12, 2012

Manchester - October 16, 2012

Leeds - October 17, 2012

34. October 19, 2012 - Lunch in London

October 31 - One Direction in Spain

Early November One Direction goes to the US for Ellen, X Factor USA, and The Today Show. After The Today Show Harry flies to LA while the rest of One Direction goes back to London. Harry writes a song with the lead singer of Snow Patrol and rumors start flying about him hooking up with Taylor Swift.

Harry arrives back in London on November 16, 2012.

35. November 16, 2012 - Children in Need benefit concert

November 30th One Direction goes back to the U.S. for one off shows and MSG show. Haylor happens.

Harry returns to London on December 8th via Taylor's private jet and plays the Jingle Ball with the rest of One Direction. Harry and Taylor tour the UK together until December 15th when Taylor leaves for France. Meanwhile Dianna heads out on a mystery 14 hour long flight on December 14th.

36. December 16, 2012 - Roast Dinner!

One Direction returns to the U.S. for the X Factor USA finale. Harry stays in the U.S. and goes on a ski vacation with Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber, and Selena Gomez.

He returns to the UK on December 24th.

37. December 25, 2012 - Late night Christmas leftovers. (Yes they’re spending Christmas together, that’s boyfriend behavior!)

Harry and Nick both leave London on the 29th (Nick for Puerto Rico and Harry for NYC) Harry spends New Years with Taylor and Nick spends New Years with Pixie, Aimee, and the rest of the hipster crew. Harry and Taylor then fly to Gorda British Virgin Islands where they are supposed to vacation until the 7th. Taylor leaves on the 4th and Harry goes to Necker Island alone. Tabloids say Harry and Taylor have broken up.

And that’s it for Haylor!

Harry arrives back in the UK on January 8th

38. January 8, 2013 - Sushi lunch date! (tweet confirming nick was also there.)

and harry with the girl who tweeted it.

39. January 10, 2013 - Tinie Tempah's GQ dinner.

The party was for people on the British GQ best dressed list (Nick was on it. Harry was not.)

Jessie J puts a picture of the table cards from her table on instagram. Harry doesn't have one which, you know. I'll just be here imagining him as Nick's + 1.

One Direction fly to Ghana on the 12th or 13th and return on the 15th. On the 16th Harry calls into Grimmy’s show to talk about how Fincham DOES NOT LOOK LIKE A MEMBER OF ONE DIRECTION. Finchy asks Harry when he’s back and Harry says “in a couple of days”. (Small side note here that I don’t think Finchy and Harry are at the level of friends where they keep track of one another’s schedules so the only way Finchy could have known that Harry was heading back out of town to Japan that very day is if Nick told him.)

One Direction in Japan from January 16th to the 20th.

I'm not going to count this as a time they were together because I have no hard evidence, but the night of January 20th Harry was spotted in a grocery store buying wine and Annie Mac mentions on her show that Nick ditched coming over for dinner that evening to have a friend round to his house instead. We assume it was Harry, but w/o actual proof I don't want to say it concretely.

40. January 21, 2013 - Baking for Radio 1! (Tweet confirming the friend was Harry.)

Nick tells this story the morning of the 22nd about how he forgot he had to bake, so he got up from bed, went to the store for supplies, and forgot eggs. So, he texted his friend who was coming over to bring eggs and then Nick baked while his friend yelled at him to add more butter.

41. January 22, 2013 - Watching Great British Bake Off

Do what you will with this one. Obviously there is not definite way to tell if this is Harry or not, but given the evidence of the amount of time they spend together that has been laid forth thus far, I feel comfortable saying those are indeed Harry's legs.

42. January 31, 2013 - Out for Harry's birthday at La Bodega Negra (the same place they celebrated Nick's birthday.)

Nick also went to Groucho Club afterward with Harry and mentioned on his show this morning that he hadn't slept at all. (He was still wearing the same outfit.)

43. February 1, 2013 - Aimee tweets about being in the car with Nick en route to play Laser Quest. (Can't imagine who they might be playing with.)

Nick tweeted this :)

The Sweetest of Them All

A/N: just another little bonus part of the AFTR universe that I came up with out of nowhere. Also, I left this as third person instead of second. Enjoy!

Word Count: 3.2k

Y/N has never been a big fan of Valentine's Day.

To her, it was overrated and expensive. But, she'd be lying if she said she didn't love the fact that it gave an extra reason to love on Auston a ridiculous amount. Sure, she did that every day, but to be fair, she loved how the title of Valentine's Day added a bit more fun and excitement to something she'd normally do any other day. It felt different for some reason, so even though she didn't love the so-called holiday, she still tried to plan something special for it every year.

Admittedly, she and Auston almost got competitive about it with trying to one-up the other with affection. They didn't care about gifts. They cared about the time they spent together and the thoughtfulness behind it.

Usually, it was Y/N that came up with something ridiculously sweet for Valentine's Day to do for Auston. However, this year, he had her beat.

For some odd reason, Y/N woke up very early that day. Maybe it was the baby waking her, or perhaps it was her internal clock saying sleep was no longer necessary. But, regardless, she was awake much earlier than usual. She also knew Mia wasn't awake or else she would've heard her, so she took that time to lie back in bed and relax for a few minutes on her own.

The bed felt incredibly empty, given that Auston was with the Leafs in Washington and wasn't expected to be back in Toronto until late that night. Frank was a good cuddle buddy alternative, but sometimes the Goldendoodle just wasn't enough when Y/N was missing her man. Of course, this was one of the days when she missed him a lot, so she took that as an excuse to text Auston and at least get this so-called holiday kicked off.

Y/N Happy Valentine's Day, Aus 🥰 can't wait to see you tonight

She wasn't expecting him to message back right away, seeing as it was only 7:30 in the morning, but much to her surprise, he did.

Auston Happy Valentine's Day, babe 💕 Can't wait to see you either. Did the flowers for Mia get delivered?

Y/N Yes, they got here last night. They're beautiful. I set them on the kitchen counter, so once she's awake and we go downstairs, she'll see her little V-Day gift from you

Auston Perfect. I got part of your Valentine's thing with me right now too. Ready for it?

Y/N Is it going to make me cry?

Auston Probably

Y/N Great. Hit me with your best shot

She stared at her phone screen for a moment, expecting it to light up with the notification of an incoming FaceTime call from her husband or a picture, but instead, he sent her a link. But not just any link, it was the link to the video recording of a new Spittin' Chiclets podcast episode that was over an hour-long called 'Love Day: Part One.'

Confused, but also insanely curious, Y/N then leaned over to grab her laptop from the bedside table and got into the most comfortable position her growing baby bump would allow so she could watch the video like that. As soon as she was about to press play, her phone buzzed with another text.

Auston This was filmed a couple of weeks ago when the Chiclets guys were in Toronto. They interviewed at least 10 different guys in the league at different times, and they're kind of long, which is why there's more than one part. Just watch the intro, then I'm the first interview. Mitch is on part 2 if you want to watch that as well, but yeah... call me when you're done 💕

Still unsure of how to process what was going on, Y/N just shook her head and followed the link.

The video started with Biz, Whit and Rear sat all-around a table, each wearing a different red, white or pink shirt with heart-shaped balloons positioned behind them. Empty bottles of Pink Whitney sat on the table, acting as vases for bouquets of roses, making Y/N roll her eyes and chuckle at how far these guys would go for good product placement. But, she kept watching, and unsurprisingly, Biz was the first to speak.

Biz: "For Valentines Day this year, we wanted to do something different. Something more soft. So, we're going to tell, well, I guess, show some love stories."

Whit: "Bet you all didn't know that some of the greatest love stories to ever be told have happened to some of the guys that play in the NHL. Don't believe me? Guess you'll have to listen to find out what they are."

Rear: "We asked some players to come in and talk to us about their relationship stories and give as many details as they were willing to give. And let me tell you, they were great. To start us off, we have Auston Matthews of the Toronto Maple Leafs telling us his fairytale romance."

The video then clipped to a shot of Biz sitting next to Auston in what Y/N assumed was the hotel downtown that the Chiclets guys were staying at. Auston wasn't dressed extravagantly or anything, just wore a grey hoodie, black pants, and his signature Raiders snapback.

Y/N immediately recognized his outfit. She remembered Auston coming home in those same clothes early one afternoon after he did some running around downtown with Mia, and started thinking of how not once did he mention doing anything for the podcast. He kept this very on the down low, and Y/N was excited to see how it would all play out.

Biz: "Alright, with us today, we have none other than the Leafs number 34, Auston Matthews. Welcome back to the show, Auston. How ya doin?"

Auston: "I'm great. Thanks for having me. How are you guys?"

Whit and Rear: "Good."

Biz: "Great, real good. Now, Auston, you know what you're here to talk about, right?"

Auston: (chuckling) "You're acting like you didn't spend the last week blowing up my phone until I agreed to do this."

Biz: "Amazing! You do know. So, here's how it's all going to go down. We've got a list of questions about your relationship with your significant other. Your obvious better half. And are going to take turns asking them so the people listening at home can get a bit of insight on your, and I quote, iconic love story. Why don't you give us a little summary of your relationship before we dive in?"

Auston: (hesitantly) "Sure, okay. So, my wife Y/N and I have been married for almost two years now. Our anniversary is at the end of July. She accidentally forgot it last year, which I haven't let her live down. Y/N, babe, this is your six month in advance warning that our anniversary is indeed coming up again this year… She's going to hate that I mentioned that. We, uh, we've been together since my first season in Toronto, so for a pretty long time now, and it's been amazing. We have a daughter, Amelia, but everyone just calls her Mia unless she's in trouble. She just turned two on January 25th, and we have our second baby on the way. They're due to be making their grand appearance in late June. We also have our firstborn, Frank, the Goldendoodle. Can't forget about him. But, yeah, that's my little family."

Whit: (nodding along with Biz and Rear) "Fair enough. Now, how and when did you and Y/N meet exactly?"

Auston: "We met on the night of my first NHL game back in 2016. She was at that game."

Biz: "Oh, yeah? Was she there for a reason?"

Auston gave him an unimpressed look.

Biz: "What?"

Auston: "You know why she was there!"

Biz: (shrugging) "Our listeners don't. C'mon, refresh my memory. Was she there to cheer someone else on?"

Auston: (shaking his head) "Yeah. She, uh, she's a cousin of one of my teammates, so she was there with their family to watch him during our first game."

Biz: (grinning widely) "What teammate?"

Auston: "The one out in the hallway keeping my daughter occupied while you keep being annoying and asking me questions you already know the answer to."

Everyone laughed at that, including Y/N, as she shifted onto her side, being mindful of her growing bump that seemingly became more noticeable each day, and got comfortable as she braced herself for what the rest of this interview would entail.

Biz: (still laughing): "Just to clarify for everyone who still doesn't know, he's talking about Mitch Marner."

Auston: "Yeah, yeah, laugh it up."

Rear: "I take it that Mitch and Mia get along really well? I haven't heard a peep from her since you came in here."

Auston: "Oh, she loves him. Yeah, that's her Mitchy, alright. Him and Steph, who you will hear all about once Mitch comes in here, are Mia's godparents and some of her favourite people."

Whit: "That's awesome. And how was that at first, though, being romantically involved with one of your teammates' family members? Sounds like grounds for some chaos, if I'm honest."

Auston: "It sure made meeting the family a bit more nerve-wracking. I'm just kidding. No, it was fine. It was definitely a little awkward at first trying to figure out how I was going to tell Mitch that I wanted to date his cousin. Like, he and Y/N are very close. Always have been. And the last thing both me and Y/N wanted was for Mitch to be uncomfortable. He did handle it really well, though. It's because of him I was even able to get to know her in the first place, which I'll never be able to thank him enough for."

Rear: "Now, you're a pretty private guy. You post the odd picture of your little family from time to time. Y/N is rather private, as well. So, really, no one knows your guys' story other than those who have lived it with you or watched it unfold. I'm sure many people will jump right on the chance to listen to this, seeing as you and Y/N are one of the most beloved couples in the NHL. But, what exactly made you want to come on here, give a bit of insight into your private life, and talk about it all?"

Auston: "Well, for one, Biz would not stop asking me to do it. Literally kept calling and texting me for days until I finally agreed."

Whit: "Shocker."

Biz: "Hey, now."

Auston: (chuckling) "That and also I figured, why not. I love my wife, and I love our little story. It's nice to think back on everything that's happened and see how it all got us to where we are now. With all the ups and the downs, its uh, it's been an amazing ride for sure, and I wouldn't change it for a thing. Also, it's for Valentine's Day. I haven't told her I'm doing this, so when you guys drop the episode, I'm just going to send it to her without much context."

Whit: "Do you think she'll cry?"

Auston: "Absolutely. I know this kind of thing would make her tear up regularly, but those pregnancy hormones have got her bad. Without a doubt, she's going to call me crying once she's done watching this."

Y/N scoffed as he said that and grabbed some tissues to wipe away the waterworks she already felt coming on.

Biz: "I've met Y/N many times now. The first time being back in what, 2018?"

The screen then showed an old picture of Biz sitting in a restaurant with his arm wrapped around Y/N's shoulders, both smiling widely as they held up their drinks, with Auston seemingly moping off to the side a little bit. Y/N chuckled at the image, instantly thinking back to the day she first met Paul Bissonnette and how wild it was before the photo faded away and showed the guys again.

Biz: "Yeah, it was when she was in Scottsdale visiting you during the summer. Great girl, completely out of Auston's league."

Auston: "Hey!"

Biz: "I'll never forget you sassing her when she commented on how hot Arizona was, with her being Canadian and all, but damn she was fast putting you in your place by calling you a, what was it?"

Auston: (grumbling) "Desert Boy."

Everyone burst out laughing again, except Auston, who just rolled his eyes and sighed dramatically.

Auston: "Whatever. She sasses me all the time when I complain about the snow, but the one time I do it back, I get called a Desert Boy and can never live it down."

Biz: (still laughing) "Ugh, amazing. Okay, moving on because we don't have much time and can probably fit in like two more questions. So, Auston, tell us how you knew that Y/N was the end game for you. How did you know that she was the one?"

Auston: "Oh, man. I don't even know how to explain it. Growing up, you see all these movies and shows, or read books where people always find someone who is their soulmate. Their perfect match. And I never knew what the feeling of finding that person was because I had never experienced it. My mom would tell me that when I did find that person, I'd know. That it'll be such an intense feeling, and to be honest, I didn't believe her. Until I met Y/N, I know that sounds cheesy, but it's true. The first time I met her, something drew me in, and I knew I wanted to get to know her better right away. Mitch spoke so highly of her, so did the other guys on the team that had already met her and over the first couple of months of us knowing each other, I saw what they meant. She quickly became one of my best friends ever. When we started dating, I saw more of how good a person she is, which attracted me even more. She is so selfless and caring for everyone around her; it truly blows my mind. I had never seen my family welcome a girl I introduced them to as quickly as they did her, and I trust their judgment the most. But even if they didn't do that, I know they would have accepted her regardless because, honestly, I probably seemed like a lovesick idiot. I still do. Y/N became this significant light in my life that I knew I wanted to be there forever. I began thinking about what it'd be like spending the rest of my life with her. Then it became something that I knew I needed. I can't imagine my life without her, and I never want to. She makes me so happy and has given me more than I could ever thank her for. I'll never understand how I, of all people, was the one to capture her massive heart, but I do know how lucky I am."

As he spoke, the screen showed a little picture slideshow of Y/N and Auston over the years of their relationship. It started with one that Ema took the first time Y/N had ever gone to Scottsdale. Y/N was sitting on the edge of a pool, and her legs dipped into the water. Auston stood between them as he wrapped his arms around her middle and leaned against her while looking over at where Ema stood taking the picture. The next one was from a Christmas party where the two were under a mistletoe as Auston leaned Y/N back and was kissing her cheek as she laughed and held onto him for dear life. There was a picture of them with Auston's family, one of them with Mitch and Steph, and another of Auston with his arms around Nate and Mya, Y/N's younger brother and sister, as the three smiled at the camera and Y/N was in the background looking confused.

The last few pictures were a bit more recent. They showed Y/N holding Frank as a puppy, a maternity photo of her and Auston posing when she was pregnant with Mia, and one of them on their wedding day with Mia and the rest of the gang. Then, the slideshow concluded with a very recent picture of them taken just a couple of weeks prior at Mia's birthday party, where Auston has his arms wrapped around Y/N from the back, showcasing her growing belly. At the same time, she leaned against him and glanced over her shoulder at him lovingly. The photos then went away and showed the guys again as Auston finished speaking.

Auston was right. Y/N was full-on bawling by that point.

All the guys were smiling as Auston finished saying his thing, but were soon interrupted by a knocking noise followed by a door opening.

Mitch: (offscreen) "Wait, no! Don't let her in!"

Mia: (also offscreen) "Daddy!"

Mia then came into the frame as she ran towards Auston, not caring about what was going on or who was there. Auston was quick reacting as he smiled widely and scooped Mia right up into his arms, making sure to place multiple kisses on her cheek as she giggled and squirmed in his hold, while Mitch became visible too and shrugged.

Auston: "Hi, mini. I missed you. Did you have fun with Mitchy?"

Mia: "Yeah! Where's mommy, daddy?"

Auston: "She's at home, baby girl. I'm almost done, then we can go get a Timbit while we wait for Mitch to be done. Sounds good?"

Mia: (knuckling at her eyes, tiredly) "Mhmm."

Rear: "This is adorable."

Biz: "Hi, Mia."

Mia: (shyly while hiding against Auston's chest a bit) "Hi, Biz."

Whit: (laughing) "Okay, I think we've kept you long enough now, Auston. Is there anything else you and Mia would like to say to Y/N?"

Auston: "Yes. Happy Valentine's Day, babe. I love you so much, and I'm sorry I'm not there right now. You're going to hear a lot more from me on actual Valentine's Day, but for right now, I think that's just about it. Mia, can you blow a kiss to the camera so mommy can see it and say 'happy Love Day!'"

Mia: (blows the kiss) "Happy Love Day, mommy!"

Auston: "Can you tell her that you love her?"

Mia: "Love you!"

Auston and Mia then waved to the camera and said bye as the clip faded out, and a new interview of another NHLer began playing.

Y/N's heart felt so full. She couldn't stop crying over how much she loved her family and how badly she needed to hear something like that. Life had been particularly hard on her as of late and seemed to keep throwing her curveballs, but this, this was exactly what she needed. To be reminded of how loved she is and that she genuinely is never alone.

She then grabbed her phone to call Auston and remind him of how much she loved him, that day and every day. The two talked for a few minutes before Y/N was pretty sure she could hear Mia waking up. After saying their goodbyes, Y/N found herself thinking about how, regardless of how she feels about the actual day, this was a Valentine's Day she will never forget.

Best Friend to Baby Mama (2/9)

Summary: just the continuation of the first one from where we first left off. (Fake Girlfriend to Best Friend).

Pairing: Chris Evans x Reader

After 8 weeks and some morning sickness, Scarlett has you taking a pregnancy test.

It’s positive.

You both scream.

“Who’s the father?!”

“Christopher fucking Robert Evans.”

You go to Chris’s mom first before Chris.

She’s very happy for you.

She even comes with you to the doctor’s appointment to confirm it.

You both hear the heartbeat even though it’s a little early.

You freak out not knowing how Chris will act.

She calms you down and reassures you everything will be okay.

You fly back to LA.

You almost chicken out.

You tell Chris.

He’s over the moon. He cries.

You move in with him again.

He calls you his baby mama.

Scarlett has her baby and let’s you have a break as she bonds with her kid and her husband.

Chris and you get a lot closer.

He takes you out on dates and what not whenever he can.

Paparazzi get photos of you with the baby bump.

Comments aren’t great.

You’re pretty stressed out.

Chris flies you back to Boston for the holidays. You stay there in his place.

He does the press tour for Avengers: Age of Ultron.

He goes to the premiere with Scott.

“He knocked up my assistant,” Scarlett said to an interviewer while standing with Chris and Scott.

“She was originally my assistant!”

“You’re digging yourself a hole. And she was my girlfriend first.”

“Your fake girlfriend.”

“Jesus Christ.”

RDJ butts in and said, “my wife is pretty open to hiring her for herself.”

A chorus of NOs.

Chris comes back to Boston and spoils you more.

He’s shocked at how big your bump is.

There’s a lot of making out that happens and cuddling.

So much cuddling.

And kissing.

Not necessarily sex unless you’re in the mood.

He ends up taking time off after finish a few more interviews to promote the film.

He joins you for every appointment he possibly can especially since they found that you have high blood pressure and that you’re having a boy.

Chris goes into overprotective mode. You find it to be sweet for a bit until you want to stab him.

Your 25th birthday party and baby shower is thrown into one. No doubt your idea since you didn’t want to be going to two parties.

You end up hanging off of Chris’s arm nearly the entire time wishing you could drink like everyone else. Scarlett feels your pain.

“But you’re still drinking!”

“And there’s a reason for it.”

A lot of people ask Chris when he’s gonna marry you and when you’re marrying him.

He gets nervous real quick because he’s already got a ring WAY before he knocked you up.

You start giving the most random answers to the question.

“Oh, he’s not that rich. I’m waiting on him to make more.”

“This is just an arrangement.”

“We’re just fuck buddies.”

Chris laughs hysterically at some of your answers especially when it comes to old coworkers.

And he starts saying, “she’s just my baby mama.”

Or “she’s just my fake girlfriend.”

“It’s all a scam.” That one didn’t go over so well especially when he gets a smack upside his head from you.

On your actual birthday, Chris gives you a pretty relaxing at home spa day with pizza for dinner.

At a doctors appointment, you find little baby Evans is having some problems. Chris isn’t there.

He’s in New York on a guy’s trip.

Lisa picks you up and drives you to Mass Gen.

You’re terrified. She stays with you until Chris gets back.

“I’m the baby daddy!!” He tells the nurses.

You end up having a C-section at 30 weeks.

Chris is in the operating room. He’s holding your hand.

“It’s gonna be okay, darling.”

You’re crying. You don’t want to be there.

You don’t hear the baby crying.

“Why isn’t he crying?”

He’s rushed out of the room.

“What’s happening?!”

Your baby boy ends up in the NICU. His lungs aren’t fully developed yet.

Chris goes back and forth between you and his son. You name him Alexander Robin Evans.

Chris ends up passing out in elevator from exhaustion and he hasn’t been sleeping at all or properly eating.

The nurses set him up in your room in his very own bed and stick an IV in his arm.

You get Scott to go out and get Chris some things.

You and Scott end up setting up a table with a single rose in a small vase and a white table cloth. He brought jellybeans, sodas, and pizza. He does steal a slice before going to see his nephew.

Chris wakes up in a panic.

“I gotta see Alex.”

“Scott’s with him, Bubba.”

You’re sitting on the bed crisscross wearing one of his hoodies.

“You passed out in an elevator, Christopher. From exhaustion.”

He sits up seeing that he’s been put into a hospital gown and that he has an IV in his left hand. He’s definitely embarrassed and that you look very worried. He feels bad.

“What’s this?” He asked seeing the table as you pulled it over.

“Dinner.”

He opens the box of pizza seeing a slice missing.

“Scott took a slice.” “Yeah, sure.”

You surprise him with the jellybeans.

“I fucking love you.”

It’s the first “I Love You”.

“Do you know what you just said?!”

“Yeah. And I fucking love you, my baby mama.”

“I’m gonna fucking stab you.”

“I love you too.”

He has you come cuddle with him and he definitely kisses you.

“I love you, Bubba.”

He still doesn’t share his jellybeans.

You sadly get discharged after 2 days. You go home without your baby boy.

However, you and Chris visit him often.

Chris does a lot of skin to skin contact when they let him.

Nurses love seeing him shirtless. You don’t blame them.

Chris also brings his Captain America suit and visits other kids as well wearing it. It becomes a frequent thing and kids obviously love that he’s coming around. Parents are pretty thankful even when they hear that his own little guy is in the hospital.

Chris calms you down when you get overwhelmed with everything.

He’ll just hold you and have you sit in his lap.

And still, he will not share his jellybeans.

To be continued.

ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING WE KNOW ABOUT THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY SEASON 2

Hello! This covers everything from trailers, promo pics, interviews, and articles. Pics and links will be included. The info is in vague chronological order (as much as it can be.)

Needless to say, this post contains SPOILERS and is LONG ^‿^

If you’d like a non-spoilery version with just the basic facts please check out my Umbrella Academy Timeline.

***********************************************************************

According to Steve Blackman, season 2 is about second chances and the endgame is still to stop the 2019 apocalypse (X).

The opening scene of season 2:

youtube

The siblings arrive in the past at different times, but all in the same spot - an alleyway with some dumpsters which leads out onto a high-street.

Noticeable locations on the high-street include a beauty salon for black people, and an electronics shop which later on closes down and becomes a base for the group.

The order they arrive in is the order the promo pictures were released: Ben & Klaus, Allison, Luther, Diego, Vanya, Five.

It will likely take a while before the whole team is reunited, and possibly longer before the siblings begin to meet the new characters: “It was several episodes before we all started to interact with each other” (X).

Ben & Klaus land in February 1960 (X). As Klaus is sober, his powers continue to develop and he uses them to impresses some people. (X)

"Klaus effectively starts the hippie movement off early by founding a cult whose philosophy is based on the lyrics of pop songs that have yet to be written. “Don’t go chasing waterfalls. Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you’re used to,” he tells one awed follower." (X)

"Destiny's Children! Let us commune with music." *starts whistling*

But Klaus isn’t as happy as he seems in this new life of cult stardom. “He can’t deal with the praise; it’s just become strangulating.” (X)

There’s also tension between Klaus and Ben, but its unknown whether this is because of the cult, because Klaus is "trying to rekindle his relationship with Dave" (X), or because Klaus’ evolved powers mean Ben can now possess him (X). Either way, Ben’s “determined not to be invisible to the ones he loves, willing to go further than ever before to make his presence known.” (X)

As Klaus is wearing the same outfit as the promo pics (and has a long beard which he later loses), its likely the following scene takes place early on.

Klaus: Now what? Ben: Remember when I told you the engine was overheating? Klaus: Yeah, well, being smart doesn't make you interesting. Ben: Neither does your beard.

Ben: You think I’m just going to keep following you everywhere for another three years? Klaus: Yeah, you are my ghost-bitch, remember?

*************************

Klaus: My skin was on fire! Ben: Good! I’ve got to get to San Francisco, I have unfinished business.

Allison is second to appear in 1961 (X). "Confused and looking for help, Allison walks into a diner and is greeted by a “Whites Only” sign, then chased across town by a group of white men until she finds sanctuary in a beauty parlour for Black women that doubles as a meeting place for civil-rights activists." (X)

Its been confirmed that the below image is from ep 1. (X)

Have you experienced discrimination by your employer?

She meets a man named Raymond Chestnut who is a “born leader with the smarts, gravitas, and confidence to never have to prove it to anyone. He has the innate ability to disarm you with a look, and is a devoted husband.” (X)

Luther appears on April 10th 1962 and lands on a dumpster.

He ends up working for Jack Ruby (X), a mysterious man who owns a nightclub (and who fatally shot Lee Harvey Oswald after Oswald was in custody for JFK's assassination). Luther’s job involves being a driver, bouncer, and underground fighter.

Its been confirmed that the following scene is from ep 1. (X)

Diego appears on Sep 17th 1963. One of the first things he sees is a televised address from President JFK.

He ends up in an insane asylum for stalking Lee Harvey Oswald and spouting “delusional claims” about JFK’s assassination (X). Its here he meets Lila Pitts, “a chameleon who can be as brilliant or as clinically insane as the situation requires”. She’s also "unpredictable, mischievous" and "sarcastic" with a "twisted sense of humour." (X)

Vanya appears on Oct 12th 1963 (X). “She arrives and gets hit by a car, driven by a woman (Sissy). She smashes her head on the cement... She remembers her name, but nothing else.” (X)

She gets a job on a ranch as a live-in-nanny for Sissy, a "fearless, no nonsense Texas Mom" who "married young for all the wrong reasons" and is "eager to rediscover what love has to offer." (X)

Because she has forgotten her past traumas, Vanya is “much more confident and more in touch with her emotional self” (X). She forms a unique bond with Sissy’s son, Harlan, who is non-verbal (X). Its been confirmed that the following photos are from ep 1. (X)

Vanya: I wish I remembered something.  Sissy: The doctor said it would take time. Don’t push yourself.

Vanya is also slowly discovering her powers on her own.

Five appears with Hazel on Nov 15th after witnessing the world going down in nuclear explosions.

Five: What was that? Hazel: The end of the world, November 25th 1963. Five: And where am I now? Hazel: Dallas, ten days earlier. Five: ...I need to find my family.

But of course its not going to be that easy, the Commission is still out there and “will hunt us down wherever and whenever we go.”

In the trailer we are introduced to the head of The Commission, a fish named Carmichael. He sends three Swedish assassins, Oscar, Axel, and Otto, to hunt down Five and the others.

At some point they acquire a milk-truck and one of them dresses as a milkman. On a location shoot, the Swedes were seen in their truck outside a house in an urban area. They check a map and one of them pumps a shotgun (X).

Whilst searching for his siblings Five encounters a man named Elliot, an "alien obsessive (who) witnesses The Umbrella Academy's separate arrivals." He agrees to help Five find the others. (X)

“3rd EVENT, April 10th 1962″ is above photos of Luther arriving, “September 17th 1963″ is above photos of Diego arriving, and the right column are photos of Vanya arriving still in her White Violin outfit.

Five manages to find Diego in the asylum and they have a conversation.

Five: Listen to me very closely, you gibbering moron. You are not going to do a goddamned thing. Diego: Why not? Five: Because we have to stop the apocalypse. Diego: But that doesn't happen for another 60 years. Five: Not that apocalypse, this is a... new one. It followed us.  Diego: *begins laughing*

At some point after this the Swedes storm the asylum.

“Who are those guys?!”

Diego and Lila seem to make their escape from the Swedes and the asylum pretty quickly however. Its been confirmed that the below pic is from ep 2. (X)

Based on Diego’s outfit and length of beard, the following two scenes take place around the same time. First, a heated car conversation which Five crashes.

Diego: You don’t know anything about me! Lila: I know everything. You are an open book written for very dumb children. Diego: I am n-not trying to b-be a hero, okay? Lila: Then why are you doing this?  Five: *appears in the backseat* Because he is an idiot. Lila: Who the hell are you? Five: Hi, I’m his loving brother. Diego: Who left me to rot in the nut-house. Five: To protect you from yourself.  Lila: Thats quite sweet. Diego: Okay. Both of you. Out.

And second, a dark encounter with a familiar figure...

Reginald Hargreeves & Pogo

The summary for episode 2 also mentions that “an incident at the bar leads Luther to Vanya,” and “Five finds an unsettling surprise in the film Hazel left behind,” which likely links to this image:

Its been confirmed that the following scene is from ep3 (X). Klaus is seen emerging from a river - now confirmed to be the River Ganges in India/Bangladesh which is considered sacred and purifying (X). Considering the series spans 10 days and is set in Dallas, this scene is very likely a flashback.

Note Ben in the background.

Klaus is also seen in similar attire in a wealthy looking house, which is potentially part of the commune where the cult operates.

Note Klaus no longer has his long beard.

And here’s Ben in what looks like a room in the same house. It's interesting to note that Ben (or the actor) is looking straight into the camera, implying its a first person point-of-view.

Apparently also in ep3 we have this delightful gem of Klaus being Klaus. (presumably theres a pool at the commune?).

Episode 3 also sees the Swedes chasing Vanya in a cornfield until she uses her powers to defend herself.

youtube

Thanks to this, Five is able to track Vanya down (X). It's been confirmed that the following pic is from episode 3. (X)

And based on Vanya's clothes, Five then takes her to a cafe to explain a few things.

Vanya: Are you gonna tell me what the hell's going on? Five: When you were a baby you were bought by an eccentric billionaire. He raised you in an elite academy with six other siblings with extrodinary powers, but in the year 2019 in order to avoid the apocalypse we jumped into a vortex and ended up being scattered throughout the timeline in Dallas, Texas. Vanya: ... Five: Any questions? Vanya: ... what do you mean the apocalypse?

At some point ollowing on from this (but unknown which ep) Luther and Vanya have this conversation:

Vanya: What caused the apocalypse? Luther: ... You did... but not alone. I was part of it, we all- Vanya: How? Luther: You got angry. Lost control, you... blew up the moon. It slammed into Earth wiping out everything.

In ep3 we see both Allison and Raymond actively involved in the protests against the segregation by taking part in a sit-in (X).

Allison: I’d like to be served, please.  Waitress: *pointing to a Whites Only sign* Can’t you read, girl?  Allison: Seven languages.  Customer: Oh, you smart one, huh?  *The door opens and many other blank protesters enter.*  Allison: We’d like to be served, please.

However, it goes badly as "police brutally attack (the) peaceful protestors." (X).

The summary for ep3 says that “Allison reconnects with Klaus,” and in ep4 she is “searching frantically for Ray.” It seems, based on the following pics, that she finds Ray in jail and Klaus & Ben have a hand in getting him out.

Note the word "buearu" on the window and Ray in the background.

Based on Klaus' outfit, its sometime around this point he goes on a massive bender. We see him running with a bottle of whiskey, his gleeful cult following him, and dancing in a drinks aisle.

Note that Klaus is bleeding from his lip.

Following on from this, Klaus wakes up on Allisons floor, feeling worse for wear.

Ben: And how are we feeling this morning? Klaus: Ugh, peaches and cream, how are you? Ben: Curious. How many more rock bottoms are you going to have to hit before you start taking care of yourself?

In episode 4 “Vanya contends with a crisis at the farm.” Could this link to her developing romance as, despite Sissy still being with her husband (X), she and Vanya begin exploring a relationship?

The summary confirms that in ep4, “Five, Diego, and Lila crash a party at the Mexican consulate.” But the Swedes are still hot on their tail.

Note the third Swede in the background, chasing Five?

After surviving this, they return to their base. The following pic has been confirmed as happening in ep4 (X).

At some unknown point the Swedes (or two of them) also go after Allison, though it appears she fights back (and kills one of them?).

"They weren't here to sell vacuums!"

Also at some unknown point, Allison and Luther have a catch up. Based on Luthers partially healed face, this is after his conversation with Vanya in ep2.

Luther: We did it again… apparently.  Allison: Did what again?  Luther: Ended the world.

Also at some unknown point Vanya and Diego reconcile: “I don’t remember what I did, but I’m sorry, if that means anything,” Vanya tells Diego as he threateningly juggles a knife. “It does,” he responds, before accepting her as a confidant he can turn to for advice on how to handle his feelings for Lila. (X)

It appears that ep5 is when the whole family finally reunites. The episode summary explains how “summoned to an emergency meeting, the siblings hatch very different plans for how to spend their last 6 days on Earth.” (I have no idea what order the conversation goes in as each bit is a snippet from a different promo vid).

Five: Klaus, is Ben here? Klaus: No, unfortunately ghosts can’t time-travel. Ben: Are you kidding me?

Five: (I/We) really screwed the pooch on this one, the whole going back in time and getting stuck thing. But the real kick in the pants here is… we brought the end of the world back here with us. Klaus: Oh my god, again? My cult is gonna be so pissed. I told them we had until 2019. Five: We have until Monday.

Klaus: Is it Vanya? Allison: Klaus! Klaus: What? Its usually Vanya.

Vanya: None of us are supposed to be here, right? I mean, what if its us?

Luther: Diego's been stalking Lee Harvey Oswald. Diego: Hey, you're working for Jack Ruby! Klaus: Allison has been very involved in local politics. Allison: Okay, you started a cult! Ben: Thank you!

“We have to make it right again, before everyone and everything we know is dead.”

Following on from this, Klaus, Vanya and Allison have some bonding time in the beauty parlour.

Vanya: How do you guys deal with this? Allison: What? Vanya: I mean all of it. Time travel. Seeing the dead...?

Vanya: I’m gunna tell Sissy that I love her… I don’t want any secrets.  Klaus: Yeah? Allison: Yeah! Yeah, yeah, you’re right. Yes. Cos, y’know, if, if its all going to go tits up the least I could do is be honest with my husband. Klaus: Oh… does that mean I have to face my cult? I just hate group breakups, thats why I stopped dating twins.

“Klaus, Vanya, and Allison end a moping session by dancing together to Twistin’ the Night Away.” (X). Its been confirmed that the following pic is from ep 5. (X)

In episode 6, “Dave visits Klaus’ compound” and “the siblings meet their father for dinner” in a Tiki bar. Its been confirmed that the following pic is from ep 6 (X).

An interview with the cast has them talking about ‘the elevator scene’ and how hard it was to shoot because everyone kept cracking up. (X)

Five: All right, quick run down. Luther; super strength, Klaus can commune with the dead, Allison can rumour anyone to do anything-  Diego: Yeah except she never uses it.  Allison: I heard a rumour you punched yourself in the face.  *Diego punches himself in the face.*  Reginald: *looking at Vanya* And you?  Luther: Uh, maybe we don’t… take Vanya for a test drive.  Klaus: Oh yeah thats probably not a good idea…  Vanya: What, I think I can handle it.  *Despite everyones protests, Vanya explodes a fruit bowl.*

Based on Luther and Klaus’ outfits, the following scenes also take place sometime around the same time (ep6/7).

First, Luther pulls up to a house in an urban area, he gets out the car and has a conversation with a man (X). This is the same house where the three Swedes were seen in their milk-truck at night.

Note the gun and flask on the seat.

Next, Allison and Raymond deal with a body (of a Swede?) while Klaus & Ben don’t help. The summary of ep6 also mentions that Allison gives Ray a peek at her powers, which is maybe why he’s on board to deal with a body.

But what's the big flash that startles them? Well it may have something to do with all this craziness:

Note the chairs and people on the ceiling.

It’s hard to tell but since Ben is there, this could be Klaus being thrown backwards? The outfit certainly looks similar.

In an interview, the cast talk about how the room had to be painted completely white (then returned to normal), and how nice it was for the character of Ben to be able to share a moment with Vanya (X). This implies Vanya looses control and Ben is able to talk her down.

At some unknown point, it looks like the siblings all return to the academy.

Note that the background behind Klaus implies he’s sat in the same seat that he did as a child.

An interview asked the question "You all eat 'brain' at a family dinner..." (X) and in a different interview the cast talk about the brain acid trip (X). Could this be when that happens?

Either way, things likely don’t run smoothy. “Reginald still proves just as capable of preying on their deepest insecurities, while somehow leaving them attacking each other instead of him.” (X)

The summary for ep7 mentions someone named Carl issuing a warning to Vanya, and in ep8 it states that the FBI torture her, so its most likely the following images are from this time:

The tape recorder is turned off...

The figure from behind slaps a cloth over Vanya’s face as she takes on the appearance of The White Violin.

“A dimly lit room... Vanya is strapped to a chair. The floor is soaked with water. At the moment she is being tortured for information... After an electric shock the lights on the ceiling begin to flicker. “‘Is she doing that?’ asks a fearful FBI agent.” (X)

Also in ep7, “Five travels to 1982 to carry out his new mission”. Theres a possibility that Luther is also involved in this as a promo pic has snow surrounding the house, which I don’t think would happen in November in Dallas?

Five: I need a spotter. Luther: What is that? Like a wingman?

The summary for ep8 includes the fact that “Diego discovers what causes the apocalypse.”

“Everything in our new lives is connected to the plot to assassinate the president. That can’t be a coincidence.”

The fact we see the gun Five was going to use to assassinate JFK, implies this scene takes place on Nov 22nd, 3 days before the apocalypse. And we know from the summaries that in ep8 “Five concocts a risky plan to intercept another version of himself.”

Old Five, young Five (who’s still really old Five), and Luther.

However this may not go to plan as the summary for ep9 says, “the Fives plot against each other.”

And the summary for episode 10 is: “reeling from the events at the Dealey Plaza, the siblings head to the farm to help save Harlan.”

MOMENTS I CAN’T PLACE:

Someone flips over a table in what looks like it could be a distillery. Based on outfit and hair this could possibly be Lila, Klaus, or (less likely) Diego. Five is also there.

A similar (the same?) person flips over while avoiding gunfire. There are targets and what looks like training equipment, and the person shooting is standing under a large umbrella.

If the flipping person is Lila, then this may link to what the summaries reveal about her arc: In ep5 she confronts her mother, in ep6 the Handler is mentioned (albeit talking to Five), and in ep9 she learns the truth about her parents…

Five sneaks through a room with a camera and lights. On the blackboard the word “Pogo” is written, implying this could be Reggies house and this room is where he is teaching and studying young Pogo.

Diego walks into a control room. It looks like there might be 2-way glass. Could this link to ep8 when Diego discovers what cases the apocalypse?

Five is seen in a building with wooden panels on the walls.

Based on the background of this shot of Carmichael, the building could be part of The Commission.

“You...”

Five gets buried in rubble. Aidan looks chill about it though.

***********************************************************************

Well done for making it all the way!

I’ve tried to avoid speculation as much as possible and keep the language suggestive. I don’t know all the facts, I WILL have made errors, probably many! So please take all this with a suggestive grain of salt, I am just a hooman trying to use her squishy brain.

Please let me know if you spot any errors, think of anything else I can add, or if you want more info about any specific event ^‿^
