Pls, pls, pls I need more WLW book recommendations!!!

Adults, YA, spicy, soft, I don’t care. I just need wlw books because I want to switch from fanfics only to actual books as well

Okay, here we are, enjoy :)

Bright Falls Series by Ashley Herring Blake: 1. Delilah Green Doesn't Care -> Delilah Green swore she would never go back to Bright Falls - nothing is there for her except memories of a lonely childhood - but when Delilah's stepsister pressures her into photographing her wedding with a guilt trip and a large check, Delilah finds herself back in Bright Falls once more. She plans to breeze in and out, but then she sees Claire Sutherland, one of Astrid's stuck-up besties, and decides that maybe there's some fun (and a little retribution) to be had, after all. 2. Astrid Parker Doesn't Fail -> For Astrid Parker failure is unacceptable. When Pru Everwood asks her to be the designer for the Everwood Inn's renovation, which will be featured on a hugely popular home makeover show, Astrid is thrilled. However, Astrid never planned on Jordan Everwood, Pru's granddaughter and the lead carpenter for the renovation, who despises every modern design decision Astrid makes. Is she going to pursue the life that she's expected to lead or the one that she really wants? 3. Iris Kelly doesn't date -> Everyone around Iris Kelly is in love and she’s happy for all of them, truly. Iris doesn’t want any of that—dating, love, romance. She’ll stick to her commitment-free hookups. There’s only one problem—Iris is a romance author facing an imminent deadline for her second book, and she’s completely out of ideas. Perfectly happy to ignore her problems as per usual, Iris goes to a bar and meets a sexy stranger, Stefania, and a night of dancing and making out turns into the worst one-night stand Iris has had in her life. To get her mind off everything, Iris tries out for the lead role in a local play, a queer retelling of Much Ado About Nothing, but comes face-to-face with Stefania, whose real name turns out to be Stevie. Desperate to save face in front of her friends, Stevie asks Iris to play along as her girlfriend. Iris is shocked, but when she realizes the arrangement might provide her with some much-needed romantic content for her book, she agrees. As the two women play the part of a happy couple, lines start to blur.

Falls from grace by Ruby Landers -> Savannah Grace and her band were huge stars in Nashville. Now enlists Noah Lyman - an indie musician - to help her break out of country music and make a name for herself for once and for all. They have to spend the winter in Savannah secluded vacation home in the woods of Vermont, and Noah brings along his best friend Brynn Marshall and pretend she’s his wife? After all, what could possibly go wrong?

The secret of you and me by Melissa Lenhardt -> Nora hasn’t looked back. Not since she fled Texas to start a new life. Now she can live—and love—however she wants. The only problem is that she also left behind the one woman she can’t forget. Now tragedy calls her back home to confront her past—and reconcile her future.

Books by Haley Cass: - Those Who Wait and the follow-up Forever and A Day -> Spencer Sutton, the daughter of a congressman, and Charlotte Thompson, New York City’s youngest deputy mayor, meet on SapphicSpark, a women-seeking-women dating app. Sutton isn’t built for casual, and Charlotte needs to keep a low profile as the race heats up. In spite of that, a friendship blossoms as Charlotte helps Sutton navigate the dating world. - Down to A Science -> Ellie Beckett is a scientific genius finishing a Ph.D. at MIT, sitting on her stool at her favorite bar, putting the final touches on her thesis - her life is predictable and comfortable enough, until the night Mia Sharpe walks in to play pool with some friends and things are never the same again. and On the same Page -> Riley Beckett met Gianna Mäkinen their first year at Boston University, and it changed everything for the both of them. She knows Gianna doesn't do romance or relationships, and she knows nothing could ever come between them. But when a holiday party mix-up sets in motion a domino effect of changes, Riley has to question everything she thought she knew about their relationship. What, exactly, does Gianna mean to her after all? - In the Long Run -> Taylor Vandenberg is busy running a successful travel blog. Brooke Watson and Taylor’s younger brother have been best friends for the majority of their lives. It means that even if Taylor isn’t physically present, she’s always been a part of Brooke’s most monumental life experiences. When Taylor lands back in Faircombe for an extended stay, it leads to more run-ins than Brooke would like. And more feelings than either may want to admit. - When You Least Expect It & Better Than Expected (I haven't had a chance to read them yet, but I have seen them recommended a lot)

If tomorrow doesn't come by Jen St. Jude -> On the morning Avery Byrne plans to end her life, the world discovers there are only nine days left to live: an asteroid is headed for Earth, and no one can stop it. As time runs out and secrets slowly come to light, Avery fights her way home to save the girl she has been in love with her whole life. But can Avery also learn to save herself and find hope again in the tomorrows she has left?

Kiss her once for me by Alison Cochrun -> Ellie had a Christmas Eve meet-cute with a woman at a bookstore that led her to fall in love over the course of a single night. The next year, Andrew, the shop’s landlord where Ellie works, proposes a shocking, drunken plan: a marriage of convenience that will benefit both of them. They make a plan to spend the holidays together at his family cabin to keep up the ruse. But when Andrew introduces his new fiancée to his sister, Ellie is shocked to discover is the mysterious woman she fell for over the year before.

6 times we almost kissed (and one time we did) by Tess Sharpe -> Penny and Tate keep almost kissing. It’s just this confusing thing that keeps happening. You know, from time to time. For basically their entire teenaged existence. They’ve never talked about it. They’ve always ignored it in the aftermath. But now they’re living across the hall from each other. And some things—like their kisses—can’t be almosts forever.

Nottingham: the true story of Robin Hood by Anna Burke -> (A retelling of Robin Hood's story with a Female Robin and wlw couples) After a fateful hunting accident sends her on the run from the law, Robyn finds herself deep in the heart of Sherwood Forest. All she really wants to do is provide for her family and stay out of trouble, but when the Sheriff of Nottingham levies the largest tax in the history of England, she’s forced to take matters into her own hands. Relying on the help of her band of merry women and the Sheriff’s intriguing—and off limits—daughter, Marian, Robyn must find a way to pull off the biggest heist Sherwood has ever seen.

Forget me not by Alyson Derrick -> Stevie has a terrible fall. And when she comes to, she can remember nothing of the last two years—not California, not coming to terms with her sexuality, not even her girlfriend Nora. Suddenly, Stevie finds herself in a life she doesn’t quite understand. And Nora finds herself…forgotten.

It goes like this by Miel Moreland -> Eva, Celeste, Gina, and Steph used to play in world-famous queer pop band called Moonlight Overthrow. But after a sudden falling out leads to the dissolution of the teens' band, their friendship, and Eva and Celeste's starry-eyed romance, nothing is the same. Until a storm devastates their hometown, bringing the four ex-best-friends back together. As they prepare for one last show, they'll discover whether growing up always means growing apart.

Dominion Series by J J Arias: 1. Losing Control -> Talent agent Adriana Ortiz’s world is rocked when she’s thrust into the tumultuous orbit of Roxy, the raw, enigmatic pop rebel with a notorious edge and a guarded heart. Tasked with steering the wild Roxy on a whirlwind tour, Adriana boards Roxy’s opulent tour bus. The nights are filled with roaring crowds, but it’s the electric tension between Roxy and Adriana that sets the air on fire. A forbidden connection that threatens to consume them. Is the wild, unbridled Roxy worth the risk to Adriana’s career, or is she just another woman falling victim to Roxy’s charms? 2. Fighting for Control -> Lola Barros is a rising talent agent burning with ambition. Carmen Vargas is a dedicated lawyer poised to conquer the legal field. Their shared high-rise is the only thing these two powerhouses have in common. After a trivial parking mishap snowballs onto a full-blown feud, Lola and Carmen are thrust into unconventional anger management sessions and their fiery rivalry gives way to smoldering desire. But yielding to desire isn't straightforward. Between the shadows of demanding careers and familial expectations, their love is tested. Can Lola and Carmen find a balance between ambition and affection? 3. Relinquishing Control -> Natalia Flores rules her exclusive talent agency with an iron fist, brokering blockbuster deals while keeping everyone at arm’s length. But beneath the cold exterior lies a heart that yearns to be understood. Enter Professor Samantha Reyes—brilliant, fierce, and unwilling to let Natalia manipulate her way into the film rights to her book. Their encounters spark with tension and undeniable chemistry. In a world where control is everything, can two powerful women let go of their fears to find a love that’s worth the risk?

11:59 by Erica Lee -> TJ Edmonds has created a whole brand around not getting attached to other people. She has a best-selling novel and a popular phone app both dedicated to helping people stay detached from their significant others, so they don't get hurt. But the only reason she can move on so quickly now is because she still hasn't let go of someone from her past. It's easy to guard her heart when she no longer has it to give away. TJ texts Brooke everyday at 11:59 pm with no answers. What happens when, in a moment of weakness, this someone reaches out to TJ?

Price and Prejudice and the city by Rachel Lippincott -> Seventeen-year-old Audrey Cameron has lost her spark. After an embarrassing run-in with her ex-boyfriend, she’s told that she needs to get back out there and take risks. What she doesn't expect is to be transported to Regency England! Lucy Sinclair has her own problems when Audrey lands into her life, claiming to be from two hundred years in the future, it's a welcome distraction.

Never ever getting back together by Sophie Gonzales -> Maya and Skye are invited to star on the reality dating show Second-Chance Romance, to compete for their now famous ex-boyfriend's affections while the whole world watches. Skye wonders if she and Jordy can recapture the spark she knows they had, but Maya has other plans.

The art of us by KL Hughes -> Charlee and Alex fell in love at nineteen and dated for four years. Theirs was an enviable love — evergreen and growing. Unbreakable…Until it broke. Alex’s job now brings her back to Boston, after five years. When, by chance, they meet again, Charlee and Alex are swept up in a whirlwind of heart-rending history, tossed between past and present, and lovers old and new. Will their lingering connection be enough to convince them that some loves are meant to last? Or should the past remain in the past?

That secret something by Emily Wright -> Rebecca Lawson is off-limits. Jess knows this, but Rebecca has captured her heart for as long as she can remember. She’s sporty, tall and confident—all the things Jess is not—but most of all…she’s her best friend Lily’s sister. But when Jess and Rebecca are forced to spend time together the forbidden feelings intensify and sparks begin to fly. Amidst the chaos of raging bridezillas and other wedding disasters, can Jess resist temptation for the sake of her friendship?

The seven husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid -> Aging and reclusive Hollywood movie icon Evelyn Hugo is finally ready to tell the truth about her glamorous and scandalous life. Summoned to Evelyn's luxurious apartment, Monique listens in fascination as the actress tells her story. From making her way to Los Angeles in the 1950s to her decision to leave show business in the '80s, and, of course, the seven husbands along the way

That summer feeling by Bridget Morrissey -> Turns out you're never too old for a summer camp romance. Or a change of heart. When a divorced woman attends a sleepaway camp for adults only, she reconnects with a man from her past - only to catch feelings for his sister instead.

Some of these are my absolute favourites, I've lost count of how many times I've read them. I cannot get enough of "the bright falls series", "One the same page", "Those who wait", "The secret of you and me" and the last entry "Falls From Grace". No matter how many times I read them. And sometimes I wish I could read them again, as if for the first time, if that makes sense. Anyway, I have a lot more titles. Let me know if you want them or not. Enjoy the reading

Previous Occupant

Card Number: B089 Square Filled: U2 Alpine Word count: 564 Rating: G Main pairing: None Major tags: non-main character death (off screen), tfatws compliant, Indiana Summary: Bucky can’t find a place to settle down.

He has to leave Brooklyn eventually. It’s too exhausting. Every street corner is a memory twisted through a muddied lens, and every one of them features Steve. Once he’s off Raynor’s books, he’s free. Well, free in so far as he still has to check in with Ross, whom he despises, but at least there’s no more “court appointed therapy”. Needless to say he still needs therapy, but that’s a whole other can of worms. Wasn’t like there were a lot of folks out there who understood a fraction of what he’d been through, and certainly not enough to be actively trying to help him to process it. He tries Vermont first, because it’s supposed to be green and beautiful, and Bucky thinks maybe what he needs is a complete 180 from the world he’s used to. He trades the concrete jungle for…slush. A lot of it. It’s pretty, but it’s wet. Maybe that’s just the season, but Bucky wants nothing to do with it. His next attempt is California, by contrast, but he lasts only two weeks. It’s depressing. Warmer, obviously, and he’s sure lovely in summer, but just like in New York, everyone seems to be in too much of a hurry pursuing what they wanted in life to have much care for anyone else.

He has family in Indiana. It’s what draws him back in the worst possible way, because Sam calls him with the bad news. His sister Rebecca has passed away. His sister, whose existence he’s been avoiding ever since he was freed from HYDRA; who had a life, kids, grew old - older than him - and he hadn’t ever gone back to Indiana to see her. How could he? They’d all thought he was dead, and then he’d come back with all this baggage. A cold blooded killer. He couldn’t do that to her, bring that on her community.

The funeral is beautiful. Bucky watches it through a scope, then visits her grave alone, sitting with her as he should have done while she was alive. It’s too late now. Everything always feels like he does it too damn late.

He can’t bring himself to leave. She’d made her home here, so why couldn’t he? There’s a Barnes stocking shelves at his local supermarket–couldn’t be much older than Bucky had been when he’d been conscripted; he has her eyes. There’s a Barnes at the library too, somewhere in her late fourties; she doesn’t look related, but the man in her wedding photograph is the spitting image of Bucky’s dad.

He feels at home here. He feels known here, even though he doesn’t tell anyone his name. And the little house that he buys comes with free company, the first since Wakanda, where he’d happily taken care of a small herd of goats to feel as though he was contributing to his own upkeep.

The little white cat is scrawny and underfed, and the empty bowl in the window sits next to an empty bag of kibble with a hole ripped into the bottom of it. There’s no tag, no name; the dear, sweet thing has been left here by the previous owner, abandoned. Left behind. Bucky knows how that feels.

The brand of cat food is “Alpine”, so that’s the name Bucky gives his new companion, and he promises - he swears - that he won’t ever leave the cat behind.

Who were you, Mary Jane?

For a class assignment, I had to go to the local cemetery and choose a grave to research. I ended up picking a broken, weatherworn grave that just said "Mary Jane". There was clearly more, but the break was part way through the words, and so much of it had worn away that even a gentle pencil rubbing couldn't bring it out. Something about her seemed sad and lonely.

I found her last name, Hathaway, on FindAGrave, where you could see slightly more of the grave and where it was before it was broken. It reads, "Mary Jane, wife of Hiram Hathaway" with the rest sunken into mud.

I found her on Ancestry, but her profile was strangely empty. So was her FamilySearch and her Genie. Her husband's was equally empty. Three sources total between them. Eventually, through manually searching through records, I discovered her parents Enoch Aiken and Mary Bailey.

I expected information to start flooding in now, it had been two hours and I finally had enough to do some cursory searching, but the only thing I found was death records, and things on her parents. Eventually, though, things started to reveal themselves.

Mary Jane Aiken was born in 1837 in Cornith, Vermont. Her mother was from Hartford, Connecticut, and her father was from Cornith. Enoch had been a blacksmith all of his life and looks like his father was one too. She had three older brothers, two older sisters, and one younger brother.

(East Cornith, early 1900s, via Cornith Historical Society)

Mary somehow managed to elude the census all her life, so she disappeared from the historical record for a while. She probably spent the time before her marriage with her family in Corinth.

Her mother passed away from pneumonia in July of 1863. She was 69.

When the Civil War rolled around, (at least) two of her brothers and her father were called to war. The house would have been just her and her sisters. Her father was a blacksmith, part of the First Cavalry Regiment, Company D. He would have seen the Battle of Gettysburg, and came back to tell the tale.

You can read more about his unit here:

One of her brothers though, her little brother William, did not make it back from the war. He was shot and killed in the Battle of the Wilderness, on March 5th, 1864, in Spotsylvania, Virginia. We are lucky enough to actually have a photograph of him publicly available (though the image quality isn't great):

Her father would come back to Cornith, presumably for the funeral, and would pass away the next month, April of 1864 (his records say he died of dropsy).

I can't imagine the amount of loss that Mary and her siblings were feeling, losing both their parents and their little brother in a little over a year.

On April 27th, 1872, Mary appears again, marrying Hiram Hathaway of Bennington, Vermont on April 13th. Depending on when the wedding was, it would have been a rather chilly wedding.

Her husband, Hiram Hathaway, was born in 1837 and had grown up in Bennington. He had several siblings. He had been a farmer most of his life, though he also managed to elude the census a few times so he may have had other jobs.

Hiram had also had a rough 1860s. In 1863, when he was 26, his father took his own life using opium. In 1866, he lost his sister, Mary, though I can't find how she died. In 1868, he lost his mother to old age. After that, the rest of his siblings scattered to the winds. One to Wisconsin, one to Florida.

In June of 1872, her husband would appear in the paper, as putting up no trespassing signs for seemingly no reason. You can read the whole clipping here:

In 1874 and 1875, Mary Jane would write wills that had the executor of her estate as her friend, Abraham Gardner. I couldn't find anything on him, it seems like there were several Abraham Gardners running around Bennington at the time. She notes in her will that she wants all of her money to be put the the benefit of her husband, giving him monthly allowances. She wanted to give everything but the house, furniture, and one set of bedding, to her sister Aphia. We also get to see her signature:

On February 15th, 1875, Mary Jane Hathaway passed away from cancer. In 1876, due to her debts, her entire estate had to be sold off.

As unfortunate as that is, it gives us a very interesting look into her life, as an inventory and appraisal had to be made of all her things.

Among her items, she had:

A stereoscope (though no stereoscope cards were noted)

Many many sewing notions (it seemed to be a hobby of hers)

Numerous photos of family on her walls along with (at least) 3 photo albums.

A room full of books, especially on the history of religion and geography books.

Painting supplies

A box of "trinkets" (probably sentimental items she kept)

Her school book on grammar.

And a much clearer picture of what she was like starts to develop.

She's an avid reader, was very sentimental, and cared quite a bit about her family. She enjoyed sewing and painting, and maybe scrapbooking with the things she collected (though that part isn't confirmed).

In 1880, Hiram remarried to Ellen Thurber, a local Bennington woman. He moves into her parent's house, where he works as a farmer. One family tree says that he died in 1889, but I can't find anything to prove or disprove that. As far as I can tell, Hiram has no death records (at least none digitized). He is also not buried with his parents and first wife. He does not appear to be in the cemetery at all. His story ends with his marriage to Ellen.

Mary's sister, Aphia, died in 1901 due to paralysis in Keene, NH. Her brother, Enoch, would die soon after in a debtor's house.

After finding this all out, I went back to the cemetery looking her Hiram and to visit Mary again. I searched all over that section, but I think if Hiram was buried here, his grave has been eaten by the hill.

Hopefully, Mary's story can be reunited with the rest of her family, and maybe one day some more information will surface about her or Hiram.

I hope so. She deserves to be remembered.

Professional Keene Photographer

How To Find The Perfect Wedding Photographer

Your wedding day is a once-in-a-lifetime event filled with precious moments, and finding the perfect wedding photographer to capture those memories is crucial. In the picturesque landscapes of Southern New Hampshire, Vermont, and Massachusetts, Weddings With Jan offers an intimate and authentic wedding photography experience. Let's explore how to find the ideal wedding photographer to document your special day. Our professional Keene photographer brings skill and creativity to every frame, ensuring perfection.

The Importance of Choosing Wisely

Your wedding photographs are more than just images; they're timeless reminders of your love story. It's essential to choose a wedding photographer who understands your vision and can turn your moments into cherished memories.

Start Early and Do Your Research

Begin your search for the perfect wedding photographer early in your wedding planning process. Seek recommendations from friends and family who have recently tied the knot. Additionally, explore online portfolios, read reviews, and view sample wedding albums to gauge a photographer's style and expertise.

Consider Your Style

Every couple has a unique style, and your wedding photos should reflect that. Discuss your preferred style with potential photographers. Whether you lean towards traditional, contemporary, photojournalistic, or a mix of styles, finding a photographer who aligns with your vision is essential.

Meet and Connect

Arrange meetings with potential photographers to get to know them better. The chemistry between you and your photographer is crucial, as it can make the photography process more enjoyable and natural. Ensure they listen to your ideas and understand your priorities.

Review Their Portfolio

Request to see a complete wedding album from a past client to get a sense of how the photographer captures an entire event. This will help you assess the consistency of their work and their storytelling abilities.

Discuss Packages and Pricing

Budget is a significant consideration when choosing a wedding photographer. Be upfront about your budget and discuss package options. Ensure that the photographer you choose offers a package that aligns with your needs and budget constraints.

Ask About Backup Plans

Inquire about backup plans in case of unforeseen circumstances such as equipment failure or illness. A reliable photographer should have contingency plans to ensure your day is documented seamlessly.

Read the Contract Carefully

Before signing any contract, read it thoroughly and ask for clarification on any terms you don't understand. Ensure the contract includes details like the number of hours of coverage, delivery timelines for your photos, and the rights to your images.

Trust Your Instincts

Cultural Wedding Photography in Vermont Is Not New

Vermont's vintage-style cultural wedding photography steals the essence of dissimilar wedding traditions. These photos elaborate a story and display the rich embroidery of the wedding rituals and emotions surrounding it. The bride and groom always stay in the highlight, but that does not mean guests, friends, and family members will be out of the picture. A cultural wedding in Vermont is incomplete without guests and their involvement in the wedding ceremony. The experienced photographer Jon Adams captures unique moments that define this sacred union. The photographer explores different colors, sounds, and movements to encapsulate the laughter and solemnity of the wedding. Cultural wedding photography is not just about taking pictures but honoring the beauty of a wedding.

You mean her exes?

Yes

A/n: in the Cosmopolitan Couple Timeline Harry and Liam are mentioned, this is a complete list of her ‘exes’, some are only rumours, but they still made it to the list.

Cosmopolitan: Here’s a Complete Timeline of Everyone Y/n Y/l/n Has Dated (and Rumored Dated)

Let’s be real: Y/n Y/l/n has had the dating game on lock for a while now. I mean, she had an adorable thing going on with Shawn Mendes when they were teenagers, ended up marrying the very handsome, very hot, rapper turned actor Jack Harlow, she (possibly) dated the talented Timothée Chalamet, ofc there was her fast-moving, PDA-filled international relationship with Harry Styles, and then she mended (and broke again) the heart of the super hot Australian actor Liam Hemsworth…we can only wish we had that kind of track record. Along the way, she’s always been super honest about her feelings, whether she’s in a relationship or enjoying being single. And that’s pretty damn admirable.

Luckily, we’ve created a complete history of Y/n’s love life, from her early days up to the present, and laid it all out for you here. Feel free to use this as a template/inspiration/dream board for your own romantic life.

Shawn Mendes: 2015- 2017

They met young, Shawn was still 16 when the two started dating in 2015. It's unclear how these two met, but it's impressive that they stayed together until 2017. Y/n and Shawn broke millions of hearts when they announced their split. of their cute relationship. In an interview with Ellen in 2016 Y/n confessed that Shawn was her first boyfriend. Cute.

Harry Styles: 2017- 2019

Y/n and Harry were first photographed together in Italy a few weeks after the actress broke up with Canadian singer Shawn Mendes. The couple never posted anything on social media, nor did they ever confirm their relationship. But photographs speak a thousand words, and for almost a year the couple was spotted around the Globe together. PDA included. Rumor has it that she was Harry’s muse for a few of the songs in Fine Line.

Timothée Chalamet: 2019

Y/n and Mr Chalamet were reportedly ‘getting to know each other better’ after being photographed together around New York City. But that same month Y/n sat down with Elle US and told that she isn’t in a relationship, saying, “I’m 21, I’m going on a few dates.”

Liam Hemsworth: 2019-2021

Miley Cyrus got into a relationship with Cody Simpson, Liam Hemsworth went public with his relationship with Y/n. And what a beautiful couple they made.

They looked like they were made to last. Both genetically blessed, family inclined, with traditional family views, very discreet people.

Rumors of an engagement began to surface since Y/n moved to Australia during the pandemic to be with Liam. Things seemed to be heading towards church bells when out of nowhere the couple announced their separation.

According to sources close to the couple “Liam was ready to remarry, he was sure with Y/n, he wanted to start a family with her, I mean his family loves her, everyone was on board for her to join the Hemsworth clan, they are all sure that she was the one for him, but Y/n is only 23, she's too young, she likes Australia to spend sometime, but misses Vermont, she doesn't see herself living in Byron at all, and she still doesn't imagines herself as a wife or mother for five to ten years, while Liam wants that now.” Yep.

Jacob Elordi: 2021

Shortly after moving back to Los Angeles post-break up Y/n was photographed in the company of another Australian, Euphoria actor Jacob Elordi.

Jack Harlow: 2021- forever (?)

They met on September 13th 2021 and have been together since. Their love story is tooth-rotten sweet (we covered it here). Jack proposed to Y/n on July 13th 2022, less then a year after they met. Romantically enough they got married (legally), one year and a day after they first exchanged glances at the Met Gala, on September 14th 2022 in Las Vegas with only their parents present as witnesses.

Their wedding in November 13th was nothing short of fabulous.

Jack and Y/n got married in Italy. Drake was among the groomsmen, the guest list was eclectic and star filled, three of Y/n exes were in attendance, Harry, Timothée and Shawn—we love an evolved couple, and if there's one thing Jack doesn't lack, is confidence for this kind of ballsy move—, 600 people were invited to the weekend long celebration. The bride wore a very romantic creation by Dior, while the groom wore Givenchy. Taylor Swift—a friend of the bride—serenaded the couple on their first dance with the very romantic ‘Lover’.

The newlyweds left for their honeymoon in a yacht.

In January 2023 we got confirmation that Y/n legally changed her last name to Harlow “We are that kind of people, it was important to him, it was important to me, my mother has my father's last name, and so on, I didn't drop my last name, I just added my husband's last name. I don't understand why people are making such a big fuss about it…”

The couple recently announced that they are expecting their first child.

hi. i'm taylor swift anon. shaking and crying waiting for your getaway car drabble. i've been loving all the stuff you've been putting out btw. rock on

ALRIGHT HERE WE GO. SOMETHING GOOD STARTS IN A GETAWAY CAR. Thank you for the request!! my inbox is insane rn but this was a super fun one. enjoy!

___

Jayce has to admit that at some point his detailed exit plans started to degrade into fantasies. The first ones had been good, had been genuine. He’d mentally mapped out the entire venue. Noted the locations of the exits. Planned some electrical wiring sabotage. At some point he had remembered that almost everyone he’d ever loved was in this room with him, though, and the plans had gotten a little stupider. Maybe someone would object. Maybe he could bribe Ezreal to out him on twitter. Maybe Ezreal could steal the time machine from the set of Ekko’s latest film Second Chances, and then he could make it work, through sheer scientific genius. And then he’d go back in time, and he’d go tell Viktor he loved him, that he wanted to stay in the band forever, that he didn’t really want to go solo and eventually get that big movie contract, that being a movie star was overrated and stupid and lead to nothing but marrying your lesbian costar for the PR, and Viktor would ask him what the fuck he’d been smoking, and maybe check him for a concussion.

Maybe Caitlyn would object, but no, Caitlyn is standing across from him, in a beautiful rose-pink dress, the maid of honor, bravely keeping her misery off of her face. At least she’ll be standing next to the woman she loves, even if she wants to trade places with him. Or maybe she doesn’t, because there’s press here, and cameras, and Jayce thinks Caitlyn and Vi probably would have eloped, if they weren’t doing this. If he weren’t doing this. He can’t entirely blame Vi, even though it was her idea. Dating in the first place, anyway. They’d been co-starring, she was being correctly accused of being a lesbian, he was being tragically incorrectly accused of having dated Viktor, the longer the rumors went on the more likely it was that someone would get Viktor involved and as far as Jayce knew, Viktor had gone on to have a quiet life as a college professor in Vermont. He had a very active twitter account that Jayce didn’t follow and definitely didn’t check regularly. He had cats.

He has no friends except Caitlyn, and so Ezreal is his best man, which is the saddest part of all of this. It has been six minutes, and Ezreal has checked out Caitlyn five times. The missing sixty seconds were when Jayce had stepped firmly on his foot.

He’s wearing a white suit, which was the compromise for Vi wearing a dress. If it was a black dress, surely that didn’t have any deeper metaphorical meaning. There are white roses everywhere, and Jayce thinks absently about how white was a funeral color in some parts of Asia. He’d have had his wedding in red. There’d have been roses. Viktor– would not have been there, because Viktor hates him. Viktor absolutely hates him, deservedly. He’s fantasizing still about seeing Viktor in the back row, because there’s a photographer that looks a lot like him, moles in the same places, and he needs to stop staring like a weirdo, because it’s his wedding day, and they’re playing here comes the bride, and maybe there’d be an earthquake. Maybe they’d die. Maybe they’d both die.

Vi comes up the aisle on Vander's arm, smiling, and when Jayce smiles back, he hopes that letting himself tear up is selling the bit instead of ruining it. Vander does not look happy, and he feels Ezreal wince next to him and feels a rare moment of genuine kinship there. Vi is somehow pulling off the dress and Jayce has no idea how, and then she gets up with her bouquet and stands in front of him.

"Dearly beloved." The priest starts, "We are gathered here today to witness the union of–"

There's a sound, and for a second Jayce thinks he had to have hallucinated it, because none of his fantasies had escalated quite that far, but no, Vi is turning around, that was definitely the sound of a gun being cocked.

He doesn't turn, for a minute, trying to just process what the fuck is happening, and then there's a voice saying—

"Ah, I got a little bored of waiting for the part where you say speak now. May I cut in?"

And surely, that is not Viktor's voice. Surely it isn't. Had Ezreal slipped him something?

"Oh, shit." Vi mutters.

"I don't think anyone's stopping you, dude." Ezreal calls, because of course he does, "the gun's a pretty effective conversation starter."

It is Viktor, Jayce realizes, numbly, as he finally turns. It was Viktor in the back row, his moles in the same places. He's holding a cane in one hand and a gun in the other, and he's not pointing it at anyone in particular, but he's holding it like he knows how to use it. If Jayce remembers correctly, he does.

"Right," Viktor says, "that was the goal, but really it's more like a conversation end-er. Jayce, are you coming willingly or am I kidnapping you? Those are your options."

Jayce opens his mouth, and then closes it again. He looks at Vi.

"I don't like that look, Talis–" she starts, and then Jayce grabs the bouquet out of her hand, chucks it in the direction of his half the room.

"Better luck to someone else!" He says, and then absolutely sprints down the aisle, ignoring the sound of spluttering behind him.

Viktor tosses the gun aside with a flippancy that makes several people duck and cover their heads as it hits the ground, and then Jayce reaches him and Viktor grabs his arm.

"You're going to have to drive the getaway car." Viktor informs him, pushing him along ahead of him as they reach the steps of the church. There's a black Rolls Royce out front with just married painted on the back of it, having been waiting for Vi and Jayce to climb in, and Jayce is grinning, can just feel himself grinning without being able to stop.

"How did you get here?" He asks.

"I took a taxi from the airport. Do you have the keys or am I hot-wiring it?"

"This isn't an extremely subtle getaway car." Jayce says, as he pulls the keys out and climbs in the driver's side and mentally analyzes why am I hot-wiring it was such a deeply sexy question.

"Of course it isn't." Viktor says, as he heads around to the passenger side and gets in. "You did all this for the publicity, right? It's only fitting that your exit is equally dramatic."

Jayce almost drops the keys fumbling to get them into the ignition after he climbs in.

"How did you know—"

"It was Violet."

"Fair enough." He says, and manages to turn the car on. He has a lot of questions he doesn't know how to ask, but he manages—

"The problem with an obvious getaway car is that the police—"

"It wasn't loaded."

"What?"

"It wasn't loaded, Jayce, start driving before Vander gets out here."

That kicks Jayce into gear, and he slams down the gas pedal hard enough that Viktor jerks back in the seat and says several very creative swear words in a language Jayce only half remembers. It might be Czech. God it's been so long.

"Why?" Jayce asks.

"Why what?" Viktor asks, voice tight, and Jayce would almost accuse him of being willfully obtuse but this is... classic Viktor. Wait till you know exactly what question you're being asked so you don't offer any additional information. Jayce missed him so much.

"Why interrupt my wedding with an unloaded gun, for starters."

"So I can't be charged for an actual murder attempt, Jayce. This way it was just– a fit of insanity. To rescue my best friend from a situation he didn't want to be in. You can even chalk it up to my desperate unreciprocated homosexual longing, or however the fuck TMZ put it last week—"

"What?" Jayce says, realizes that's the wrong question. "I mean–" actually, he doesn't know the right question. "What."

"I outed neither of you." Viktor continues, voice cold. "So if you'd like you can still blame it on being terrified of what I'd do to you, you can claim you canceled the wedding out of fear of another traumatic experience, and you can milk the media attention while I go to court and you had better make an impassioned speech to support my insanity plea about how much I mean to you, Jayce, I am going to be really irritated if I go to prison—"

Jayce slams on the brakes.

The car behind him honks, but Jayce ignores them as he actually turns to look at Viktor, who looks aghast.

"Jayce what the fuck—"

"What the fuck?" Jayce repeats, indignant. "You're spewing all this bullshit at me and you're saying what the fuck? I think I get to fuck, here!"

"Phrasing."

"Shut up."

Viktor's eyes are ablaze, his expression absolutely lit up, flushed.

"Make me." He snaps, and Jayce doesn't even think before he leans across the center console, grabs Viktor by the collar, and kisses him.

It's a really bad kiss for three terrifying seconds where Jayce's nose smashes into Viktor and their mouths don't fit together and Jayce is terrified he's done this all wrong, has finally fucked it up for good, past the point of any hope or fantasy of getting it back, and then Viktor's arms are around his neck and he's pushing himself into Jayce's arms, he's kissing Jayce back, and it clicks into place like something Jayce had been missing his whole life, long before they'd fallen together and fallen apart, like everything Jayce hadn't been willing to admit he needed, and it's perfect.

And then someone behind them absolutely slams on the horn, and there's the sound of a muffled voice yelling—

"Will you save it for the fucking honeymoon and drive?!"

Jayce comes up for air.

"We should—"

"Yes." Viktor agrees, understanding him perfectly, again. "Go."

Chapter Twenty Six

After the many shocked exclamations were over, surprise nuptials toasted and the table calmed down again enough to order food, Naz was grilled about everything.

“So, we know you two got together out in Syria and then he went with you back to Turkey to see mom and pop, but what from there?” Kate asked, her mouth still dangling in exclamation.

“From there we were supposed to be going straight to Texas, but I found out at the last minute he’d booked us a week of vacation in Vermont, which as you know is somewhere I’ve always wanted to visit. Oh, it was so beautiful. The hotel was bordered between a forest and a lake, it was so quiet and peaceful.

“He proposed at the side of that lake the first night we were there, with both of us deciding the following morning that we wanted to get married as soon as possible, while we were there. Please, don’t be offended that we didn’t tell anyone or invite you and everyone else, we just wanted it to be about us,” she began, her girlfriends all falling over themselves to reassure her that they weren’t mad about her decision not to include them at all.

“Well, we didn’t expect it to happen as soon as it did, hence why we were both dressed so casually in the pictures. After we’d applied for a marriage license, we came back to the hotel where there was meant to be a wedding taking place, only to find out that the bride had jilted the groom! As it turns out, it was to our advantage, the registrar offering to marry us right there and then, so that’s what we did.”

Her friends all looked suitably gooey eyed, even more so when Naz showed them the pictures that a kindly stranger had taken of them as they danced under the lantern lit trees later that evening, a photographer who had told them they were too photogenic not to capture and asked if they minded her using some for her portfolio.

“Naz, I swear. He is so gorgeous, and huge!” Leanne enthused, Naz raising her eyebrows.

“A fitting description,” she replied naughtily, her friends going wild.

“Yes, lady! We need the deets! How is he in bed? You never shared this when you were with Ben!” Leah then added, all of them shuffling closer, Naz laughing hard at the eager looks upon their faces.

“Well, huge is the operative word,” she began, high fiving Kate as they all squealed quietly. “As for how he is, absolutely incredible. I swear, he’s some kind of god. I have never, ever cum so much or so hard in all of my life! Remember I told you Ben hated going down on women and flatly refused? Sy is the total opposite. He spent an hour down there once, just to prove he could,” she revealed, Leah visibly clenching her legs together, her jaw dropping.

“An hour? Girl, could you even feel anything afterwards? Could he? Can the poor man speak or does he have perpetual lock jaw?” she exclaimed, Naz laughing hard along with Leanne and Kate. “Okay, so moving on. Tell us what he’s like, then! The good, the bad and the ugly. You need to share with the group!” She then added, wide eyed and expectant.

“He’s a lovely guy, quite quiet at first but he’ll open up a little after a while, and then you’ll get a louder, more raucous version of Sy. He likes to observe situations before he inputs too much, get the measure of people. He’s very tactile like that, it comes from him being in the military. He’s just awesome, he’s really funny and he’ll banter you into the ground. He’s definitely more of a listener as well, he’s very good to talk to.

“That was the good, as for the bad, he can be short tempered but he’s seldom been like that with me, but boy, is he a fucking grump when he wants to be! For instance, I took him to get his beard trimmed properly in Turkey, but they did the full works, steamed his face and everything and he hated it.

“He came out and shouted ‘he fucking put moisturiser on me!’ like it was the worst thing in the world. Never, ever get him to try a cocktail, either. He will glare at you like you’re trying to make him imbibe acid. He has two alcoholic drinks he doesn’t deviate from, beer and bourbon.

“He’s also amazing at what he does, I am such a proud wife to be able to call a man like him my husband. He led the team who captured the core members of Zilal Aldam. He’s looking at decoration for that, should he stay within the military,” she explained at length, her friends nodding with interest.

“Why, might he be leaving?” Kate asked.

“If all goes well, then yes. The CIA are interested in him, so this means I might be spared the hellish existence being a military wife and missing him constantly, since it’s my team the job is within so we’d be travelling together for the most part.” Naz smiled again as she thought how wonderfully everything had slotted together for them.

She and her friends had a great afternoon together, Sy joining them later at the bar a very happy man since the Cowboys had won by a mile. He greeted them all warmly, Naz making him very happy by immediately sliding a cold glass of beer towards him she’d bought before he arrived, the three women cooing quietly when he took her hand and kissed it in thanks.

“You alone at a table with four beautiful women. I bet this was a regular night for you when you were home and single, huh?” Leah asked, catching an ice cube between her back teeth and crunching it.

“A slow one, yeah,” he joked, making the women all laugh. As Naz had mentioned, he was a little quiet to begin with, preferring to hear them speak about themselves first before he told them anything about himself. He became chattier after a few beers, though, he and Naz sharing stories from Syria about how they’d kept themselves entertained and sane while not working.

“How about when we punked Calvin with the dead scorpion,” Sy began, tipping his head back and laughing loudly at the memory. “My boy hates insects of any kind, I mean as in he has a legitimate phobia. The amount of times he’s bolted from camel spiders and the like is insane, but this one night when we were all off duty, Naz found a dead scorpion in the kitchen, so my superior Tom and I had the idea to go scare the shit out of Calvin.

“We waited until he hit the showers and then hid it in his clothes and when he came out, the dude dropped his towel in fright and ran, out into the desert, pecker flapping in the damn breeze while screaming at the top of his voice.

“I had to tell the guys in the watchtowers to hold their fire, Naz and Tom are literally rolling on the floor crying laughing and there’s Calvin, still running and screaming, with all my boys up in the guard towers whistling at him. Then, right on cue, this group of young fellas who we saw every few days came through, herding their goats back down to the nearest village, all stopping and pointing at the crazy, naked American guy who was still screaming and running,” he recounted, the girls all laughing.

“Then there was the time Tom got in bed with you,” Naz added, laughing loudly when she saw the look on his face.

“I thought it was her for like a split second,” he began, pointing at his wife. “I was asleep face down and someone came and sat astride me and started bouncing, so my half asleep brain is like ‘oh it’s Naz, she’s crept in for some morning sex’, when all of a sudden, Tom hollers ‘you get the fuck out of bed right now, you sexy, grizzly bear man!’ I turn to look at him, and he’s wearing Liz’s bra over the top of his t shirt,” he replied, Naz unable to breathe as she remembered it.

“Liz is so much fun when she’s not working. She was sitting in the control room once, using wax strips on her legs and complaining how much it hurt, so Sy pipes up that there’s no way in hell it hurt that much. Liz told him to roll up his pants leg, he duly did and then she stuck on a strip and ripped. He complained less when he got shot!” Everyone laughed heartily, bar Sy, giving Naz his famous pissed off side eye before he finally began to smile.

Throughout that evening, she noted that it was the first time since arriving home that she’d experienced him returning more to his usual self. It was nice to witness, him not having moments of looking like he was mentally wrestling with the opinions of his mother and instead, enjoying the company of her friends, who he seemed to like very much.

“Come on, Sy! Come dance. Naz is fucking boring and always refuses!” Leanne asked as he stood at the bar in the second venue they arrived at, shaking his head firmly.

“Honey, there’s only one place I have good rhythm and it ain’t on the dance floor,” he replied, watching her pull an expressive face in exclamation at his implication before leaving them to it. “I like her, she’s fun. They all are. I never thought I’d meet a woman who could drink more bourbon than me and still walk, but I have. Her name is Leah.” He then told Naz, wrapping his arm around her and kissing her hair as she beamed.

“So, do you think you’re going to like it here, if all goes to plan?” she asked, watching him nod.

“I do, but then again I like it anywhere where you are, baby doll.” Naz couldn’t have been any happier than she was in that moment. Until she arrived home four hours later with a slightly drunk and very horny husband herding her in the direction of the bedroom.
