Hi. These are some of the fanfics I've read.
I've read A LOT but I'll only be including the ones I really enjoyed reading.
I'm in the process of recollecting them, please bare with me.
I'm also updating this post often, so whenever I end finishing a fic I like I just post it here. hehe
💓 - Fluff ❤‍🩹 - angst 🥵 - smut 🚨 - violence/drugs 🤪 - crack ⭐ - fav 🎣 - latest addition to the list
⋅˚₊‧ ୨୧ ‧₊˚. SERIES ⋅˚₊‧ ୨୧ ‧₊˚.
My Love is Here - @/solemnreads
Completed ✅ ⭐
Genre: 💓, ❤‍🩹 (so much angst, I love it), 🥵 summary: "You didn’t mean for it to happen. It’s not like you purposely woke up one day and thought “Hey I’m going to fall in love with my best friend!” No, that is not at all what happened."
Knife's Edge - @/readyplayerhobi
Completed ✅
Genre: 💓, ❤‍🩹,🥵, 🚨 The Jeon Clan is Family, built on blood and loyalty. It’s been an unspoken fact that one day you will marry the heir to the Clan, Jeon Jungkook. You would be a fool to deny that you love him, but what happens when you meet a blue haired man who offers you a chance at normality?
Four Seven Eight - @/jiminrings
Completed ✅ ⭐
Genre: 💓, ❤‍🩹 (fic made me cry) ,🥵 you’re secure when it comes to loving jungkook, knowing that your husband loves you beyond words. what you aren’t so secure about is his first love — someone who isn’t you.alternatively, jungkook’s married to you, but he still celebrates his anniversary with his ex out of sentimentality.
Close to you - @/muniimyg
Completed ✅ ⭐
genre: 💓, 🤪 It should've been easier than this, right?In which oc and Jungkook sleep together and he can't get over it.
Falling Skies - @/fortunexkookie
Completed ✅ ⭐
Genre: 💓, ❤‍🩹,🥵 Jeon Jiyeon was your childhood best friend; her brother, Jungkook, was something else entirely. Once upon a time, she had called you her sun and him her moon; it was fitting, given the constant push-and-pull between you two. You used to consider him a friend, but then he had gone from endearingly frustrating dumb boy to card-carrying fuckboy so fast it had given you whiplash.
Please Love Me - @/ahunderedtimesover
Completed ✅ ⭐
Genre: 💓, ❤‍🩹,🥵 As the only unmarried Jeon and Kim children, your families propose a union to symbolize your unbreakable bond that spans generations. But despite developing an affection for Jungkook growing up, he never returned it; he never seemed to like you, actually. You’re okay with the proposal, but surprise surprise, he isn’t.
Lowkey - @/xpeachesncream
Completed ✅ ⭐
Genre: 💓, ❤‍🩹, 🥵 In order to pass organic chemistry and pay off your car damages from an accident, all you have to do is help the nerd, Jeon Jungkook, with a few things: pretend to be his girlfriend and teach him the way of dating.
Hotter Than Hell - @/chateautae
Completed ✅ ⭐
Genre: ❤‍🩹, 🥵 Jungkook, Lucifer and king of hell, has been cast out of the crimson underworld for a reason he's unsure of. Embarking on his journey for the answers should've been easy, if it weren't for you, the human that nurses his wounded body in her home, and accidentally witnesses the truth of his identity. Kickstarting a hellish adventure with the devil himself, you discover Lucifer is the most infuriating company ever; and Jungkook finds out that maybe his answer to returning home lies within his annoying human confidant.
An Ode to a Broken Heart - @/smoochkooks
Ongoing... ✍
Genre: ❤‍🩹 (bro I've been crying over this fic for days), 🥵 (future smut)  you’ve watched jeon jungkook slip out of your reach your entire life. now it’s time for you to finally move on, bury the past and open a new chapter. however, you’re doing it in your own, unconventional way - by publishing anonymously a novel about your miserable relationship.
Mutual Help - @/personasintro
Ongoing... ✍ (this is also posted on AO3)
Genre: 💓, ❤‍🩹,🥵 (damn... that's all i can say)  in order for you to pretend to be his girlfriend, he helps you with your sexual desires ⏤ he calls it mutual help
Way Back Home - @/solemnreads
Ongoing... ✍
Genre: 💓, ❤‍🩹 (please i really love angsty fics, fite me), 🥵
"Please tell me this isn't what I think it is" he asks you with tears in his eyes. You look down at the sight of your son with an oxygen mask on his face while your daughter is sleeping on the couch near the wall. You look into his eyes, broken, and sad. You've dreamt of this day for years, wondering how he would react. But here you are, hoping he could've meet the twins under different circumstances. "Yes... they're your children."
Strawberry Kisses - @/pixieknj
Ongoing... ✍
Genre: ❤‍🩹, 🥵 (Chapter 1 has been posted, but its something else) Jungkook is notoriously known as a f^ckboy who doesn’t eat p^ssy, until he finally gets alone with you…
⋅˚₊‧ ୨୧ ‧₊˚. ONE-SHOTS or TWO-SHOTS ⋅˚₊‧ ୨୧ ‧₊˚.
The Right Choice - @/honeytae
Genre: 💓 for as long as you've known Jungkook, you would think that you're witnessed all sides of him. But when you notice the way he's looking at you right now, you think you may be wrong about that.
Rainy Days - @/rklve
Genre: 💓, ❤‍🩹,🥵 Your life choices left not only yours, but Jungkook's hear broken in pieces. Now you're back in town, and just like Pluto, even if its cold and dark he tends to orbit around his sun forever.
High Demand - @/bunnyhugs77
Genre: 💓, 🥵, 🚨 A modern day Romeo and Juliet
SOJU - @/hoseoksluna
Genre: ❤‍🩹,🥵 Jungkook gives you all that he has—his feelings, his dominance and his cum.
Lost & Found - @/kooktrash
Genre: ❤‍🩹 (if you squint), 🥵 your college years have never been something you dwelled on for too long. you didn’t want to think of all the chances you lost and that’s why when the guy you had a crush on moves back to town, you try not to let it affect you again. but then he brings up old memories that didn’t go the way you thought they had and you’re thrown for a loop. you’re stuck between finding something new with him and falling back into old habits of never standing up for yourself. it probably doesn’t help that he dated your best friend, where everything seemed to go wrong.
Bottle Up Old Love - @/wintaerbaer
Genre: 💓, ❤‍🩹,🥵 Jungkook may have broken up with you a year ago, but that's not going to stop him from coming to your rescue when he sees you being cornered by a creep.
Pink Sapphire - @/jiminrings ⭐
Genre: 💓, ❤‍🩹(please I'm a sucker for this) ,🥵 Having Jungkook as a husband is great as far as arranged marriages could go; he's easy to love. Your relationship's perhaps become so easy that Jungkook doesn't think sometimes— and that's what makes it the easiest for you to hate him.
Will it fit? - @/jeonsweetpea
Genre: 💓, 🥵, 🤪, ❤‍🩹 (just a little bit) So what if your roommate caught you masturbating? At least he forgot about it the next day. But he can't exactly forget the big dildo you left in your shared bathroom...
Break up with your Boyfriend - @/spideyjimin
Genre: 💓, ❤‍🩹,🥵 Jungkook, the campus fuckboy, has decided to make you his next victim, but you're far from being like any of his previous hookups. You're not single. You're actually in a very long-term relationship with Baekhyun, the man you consider the love of you life, but it's for sure something that won't stop Jungkook. He wants you, and he's going to do absolutely everything to have you, even falling in love.
Paint me naked - @/gimmethatagustd
Genre: 💓, ❤‍🩹,🥵 After the mysteriously hot guy in your university class starts taking an interest in you, should you really trust that he's not like all the other college fuckboys? Especially when his best friend is the guy who broke your heart?
I hate you, I love you - @j/ungblue 🎣
Genre: ❤‍🩹,🥵 You hated him at seven, warmed up to him at twelve, and liked him at fifteen. Now the two of you are twenty years old and inseparable best friends... and you're absolutely in love with him; he's in love too—just not with you.
How to Get a Guy - @/taeshobipop 🎣
Genre: 💓, ❤‍🩹, 🥵 Star basketball player Jeon Jungkook has a reputation as the ultimate fuckboi. He's loved by everyone. Everyone. And you would have followed suit if he had not broken all your strict Roommate Rules™ within the first week of his stay. Jungkook, on the other hand, thinks you're absolutely bizarre. But there's a silver lining— Mr. Fuckboi here knows basketball captain Min Yoongi, your dreadfully clueless crush. He strikes up a deal with you: he'll teach you the ways of flirting if you lessen your load of rules (so Jungook can continue persuing his way through the ladies on campus). Yet the longer Jungkook spends with you, the more he realizes that maybe he doesn't want to tbe the campus fuckboi anymore. The problem is, how does he prove that to you?

Out of Mind - Chapter 9 (Joel Miller x Female Reader)
Tumblr media
@hiroikegawa @evyiione @orcasoul @taz-97
*mrs weasley voice* Where HAVE you been?!!!! I know I know I'm sorry for my prolonged absence. I'm in my last year of uni, applying for post grads when all I really wanna do is write about our fav baby girl Joel Miller. If ever this happens again, which it probably will, worst luck I promise I've not abandoned you! I'm loving writing this fic and have big plans for new ones. Huge thank you to everyone who has liked and messaged me, assuring me that I have not been forgotten.
If anyone else wants to be the first to know when this fic is updated let me know and I'll add you to the taglist.
Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 4 Chapter 5 Chapter 6 Chapter 7 Chapter 8
Summary: As you and Joel make the trade, your trust in him is stretched to its limits.
Warnings: [whole fic is 18+ minors DNI], it puts its age in the bio or it gets the block button, cursing, graphic descriptions of violence, attempted sexual assault, i'm going to put *** at the beginning and ending of any descriptions of sexual violence so you can avoid if necessary, Joel is still a dick, not me getting mad at him for things I made him do.
"you know I'd never let them hurt you." "Do I?"
You
An icy wind startled you awake. The tip of your nose and cheeks had frozen where they'd been poking out of your sleeping bag in the night. You blew into your hands and tried to rub some warmth back into them, careful not to move the rest of your body or you'd wake Joel who was pressed up behind you.
You'd split the first few nights out of Boston, one of you resting while the other kept watch, but soon exposure to the elements had rendered caution impossible and you'd been forced to sleep at the same time, swaddled under both of your sleeping bags, desperate bodies clinging onto each other for warmth. Most nights you could feel Joel fighting to stay awake, body tensing up every time you started to relax until you hissed at him to quit it. Whether it was for fear of being attacked or refusal to accept any comfort from you was hard to tell.
Your body stilled as Joel shifted against you and you felt a familiar poke in your lower back. It had become something of a wake-up call recently, gently poking you awake on the rare occasions that Joel slept longer than you. It was a sensation with which you were familiar and you kept reminding yourself that it happened to a lot of people in your current situation and it didn't mean anything. Still, as a long, low moan rumbled in your ear you couldn't help but wonder which mystery woman was plaguing Joel's dreams currently. Tess? A ghostly apparition from his past? Or maybe, just maybe, you'd managed to worm your way into his sub-conscious. But you quickly scoffed at the thought. If Joel had any dreams involving you they probably involved wringing your neck.
Joel
She was in his dreams. Again. He always clutched her to him as if he already knew how she would slip away when he woke up. That was the worst part - spending his dreams coiled around her, nose in her hair, arms wrapped around her body, thrusting his hips, searching desperately for release - then waking up still embracing her but having to tear himself away, thanking whatever heartless God existed that she was such a heavy sleeper.
He pried himself away from her warmth, trying not to notice the way she immediately started shivering without him, prodding her until she woke.
"Time to get up."
"Mfff" was all the response he got.
"C'mon move your lazy ass."
"Go away."
"God, you would sleep all day if I let you. Gotta be the worst smuggler I ever seen." That got her up.
"How much further?"
"Not long, we should be able to reach em before sundown. Now remember when we're in negotiations…"
"You do the talking, I decorate the background."
"What you do is try to be invisible. These folk don't play nice."
"I know, Tess told me." Joel grimaced.
He would've much rather done this on his own but Tess insisted he needed back-up. He'd told her before that Skye was her responsibility, not his, that she would be the only person to blame if she got hurt, but they both knew that was bullshit.
Unfortunately for them, Joel's estimations were exact: it was barely afternoon by the time they got to Marcus's camp. Guards frisked them at the perimeter, he noticed that one of them lingered a little longer than was necessary over her and he had to resist the urge to punch him.
"You ready?" If she was rattled, she didn't show it, just nodded.
"Let's go."
You
As you made your way through the camp, you had a distinct feeling of de ja vu. You hadn't encountered a group like this since before you came to Boston after which you swore you'd never put your fate in someone else's hands again, fat lot of good that did. Now you felt like a fish swimming into a net.
This Marcus reminded you too much of Robert, except while Robert needed to hire bruisers to do his punching, this guy looked more than capable of striking his own blows. He gave a curt nod to Joel then his eyes turned to you and there was a cruel glint.
"See you've traded Tess in for a younger model." Joel cast you a furtive glance, but said nothing.
"You got what's ours?"
"It's still mine till I decide otherwise." But he still opened the trunk at his feet revealing a treasure trove of tea, coffee and batteries. You struggled to keep the greed off your face and you could see that Joel was doing the same.
"We have what we promised" Joel responded, producing the collection of guns and ammo you and Tess had filched from the FEDRA base. At the time you'd been pleased to put your skills in climbing and creeping to use but now you didn't like the idea of giving this guy weapons. When you'd asked Tess what he was going to do with it, she rolled her eyes and said "Some light gardening. What do you think?"
You'd told yourself that everyone needed tools to survive and it was up to him what he used them for, not you, but now as you looked at Marcus you could see the faces of everyone you'd ever lost flashing before your eyes.
"It's all there" Joel said as Marcus rifled through the assortment of weaponry.
"Sure seems that way, but now I'm wondering if this is an entirely fair trade."
"It's not, we're giving you FEDRA level weapons in return for batteries n bullshit. You know as well as I do Marcus, that you're robbin' us blind."
"Might seem that way to you, all tucked away in that cosy QZ but what's the feeling of a gun at your side compared to the feeling of a woman underneath?" Suddenly, you could feel the eyes of every man in the camp on you.
"What're you suggesting?"
"Give me n' my boys a turn with your slice and we'll walk away happy customers."
There was a horrible silence. You couldn't hear anything but the ringing in your ears. Finally, Joel replied:
"I don't share."
"C'mon Miller, don't be greedy. We ain't seen a woman in months."
"Probably cos you scared em all away."
"Listen, I promise we'll give her back the same way we found her, more or less. I'll even throw in a few packs of cigarettes we got off a trespasser a while back. Been saving them for a special occasion."
The men were closing in on all sides now, like walls sealing themselves.
"How many packs?" Your stomach dropped.
"Three."
"Show me." Marcus produced the cigarettes with a flourish.
"J-Joel" you managed to stammer out.
"Shut up" Joel glared at you. "Unless you want a repeat of what happened in Austin."
Austin. That was his signal. Loosely translated, it meant trust me, even though things seem shit at the moment, I've got a plan. You have to trust me. And you did, at least you thought you did.
Joel turned back to Marcus as you cowered behind him.
"At least lemme look at the merchandise."
Marcus beckoned him forward as you could feel his men shepherding you to their side of the camp. You felt a brush on the small of your back and you flinched, looking behind you, but all you could see was a sea of smirking faces.
You watched carefully as Joel went through the trunk. In a flash, you could see a glint of metal. Bullets. Joel must've stashed some in his coat pocket or sleeve. You glanced around, waiting for shouts of alarm or gunfire, but none came. Then Joel was looking at you, just for a second then back at Marcus, and you could see what he saw: a knife strapped to his belt, and a pretty hefty one. Could tear you a new one, or him.
Joel shut the trunk and stood.
"It's all here. I'll be back for her at midnight?"
"Done."
"Right well, enjoy."
"You two boys escort our friend out of camp, I get first go."
You cast one last glance over your shoulder as two huge men prodded Joel with their guns, leading him away from you, as Marcus placed a beefy hand on your shoulder and led you away from him.
*** You swallowed your tears, refusing to give this man the credit of seeing you cry, repeating to yourself, please help me to be brave, please help me to be brave.
"Alright sweetcheeks that's far enough." Bile rose in your throat as his hand forced your head down, pushing you onto your knees. You didn't want to look at him but he grabbed your chin, tilting your head up.
"This'll go a lot easier for you if you don't fight back. I'd hate to return broken to my associate. That's just bad business."
You said nothing, just nodded and started to unbuckle his belt. You ignored his hand stroking your hair in a disgusting display of tenderness and focused on your task until it came loose. You met his eyes one last time, smiled, then stuck his knife into his groin.
His shout was cut off by you sticking your fist in his mouth. Teeth pierced your skin but you didn't flinch. You just grinned and said
"this'll go a lot easier for you if you don't fight back", sticking the knife into his side.***
Marcus groaned pitifully and collapsed. Before you could finish the job, you heard the rattling of gunfire and you took off back towards the camp where you could see Joel, having grabbed one of the men's guns, shooting his way through Marcus's men. Unfortunately one man he hadn't accounted for was sneaking up on his left side. Not his left side.
The man barrelled into him and had his hands around his throat.
"Let go asshole!" You screamed, plunging your knife into his throat before he had a chance to obey your order.
Joel stared up at you with bulging eyes as you pulled him up, then you both dove behind a crate as shots rang out all around.
"Real smart thinking giving these douchebags guns" you quipped, but Joel ignored you, responding:
"You go left, I go right."
*** You nodded, then edged to your left as Joel drew their gunfire away. It was criminally easy to put your knife through the first two guys but as you grabbed the third one and slit the blade across his throat, you felt a fist closing in your hair and yanking you back. You tried to scream for Joel but another hand clamped over your mouth. You thrashed wildly but to no avail, whoever it was had you in a complete grip. Then you were going flying, hitting the ground with a grunt and feeling your arms and legs pinned as you stared, in horror, at the face of Marcus, covered in blood but still very much alive.
"Guess you shoulda finished me when you had the chance instead of running to help your boyfriend."
"Get off me!" You yelled, turning your face away, the only part of your body you could still move.
"I'm gonna enjoy this so much more." You looked around wildly. The sound of gunfire had stopped but you couldn't see Joel, just trees above you.***
Then a single shot tore through the air and Marcus let out a gut wrenching roar above you. Two hands appeared on his arms, ripping him off of you. You remained on the ground, gazing up at the tree tops until a familiar face came into view, tufts of grey and black beard matted with blood.
"Joel." He helped you up, keeping a firm but not ungentle grip as you swayed in the breeze. The sound of a groan brought you back to reality. Marcus was squirming on the ground like a fish on dry land. A gun was pressed into your hand.
"He's all yours." Marcus whined as you approached.
"No wait, please I didn't mean it, take what you want, let me go, I'm sorry, I won't ever do it again, please…"
You steadied your hand and aimed for his forehead.
"This'll go a lot easier for you if you don't fight back" and you pulled the trigger.
"Are you hurt?" You gazed at Joel who was looking at you with concern. You threw your head back and laughed.
"Am I HURT?!" With a scream that you didn't even realise you were capable of making you launched yourself at Joel, punching and kicking blindly, shouting "are you hurt? Are you hurt? ARE YOU HURT?"
Joel caught your fists.
"I'm sorry, it was the only thing I could think of." You kept kicking him. "I had to get their guard down and get them separated from their leader." You kicked him doubly hard in the shin. "Ow, stop, you know I'd never let them hurt you."
"Do I?" You screamed, "DO I KNOW THAT?"
Joel held your gaze as your voice echoed throughout the forest. You were suddenly, painfully aware of the death that surrounded you.
"We need to get out of here." You tore yourself away from him and started searching blindly for your pack."
"Skye…"
"NOW!"
Joel jumped, then followed you as you ran blindly out of the camp.

Hiii. I know you probably don't plan to just drop this but I just wanted to let you know that although I was surprised not to see an update when I woke up this morning (it's early morning for me whenever you update), please don't rush and please take your time doing everything you need to irl and here on tumblr. The last thing I want is for an author to get burnt out from a series and suddenly discontinuing it out of nowhere when it was so loved and everything seemed fine. It's happened so many times with fics that I've read in the past suddenly just getting dungeoned when it had so much potential but because the author either had no solid plan for plot or because they got burnt out from it, we never get to see the end of it. It's my fear everytime I start a new series :(
So please take your time with the update and the rest of the story! I'll take later updates over getting discontinued any day! (You're one of my favorite authors like your masterlist for Ateez? Sooooo goooood)
Also I can't wait to see what kind of possible spin offs you have planned!
Hello, nonnie!
Aww oh my gosh, you have no idea how much this means to me!!🥺😭💗
Trust me, I know exactly what you mean because I used to have the same fear whenever I start reading a series as well😔 which is why that would be the last thing I'd want to do to my own readers!
I'll be honest, one of my biggest fears when it comes to doing a chaptered story is feeling the passion to update slowly wane... but! But thankfully, due to the amount of love and support this fic has been receiving, I'm happy to report that I still am incredibly enthusiastic about updating!!🥳
Part 16 is about 70% done for now, and it should be out in less than a day! (TMI: I'm heading out to donate blood in a bit, sincerely hoping I will not be feeling lightheaded or anything because I really want to finish this asap😭)
No freaking wayyy, it always feels surreal when readers tell me I'm one of their fav authors like🥺🧎🏻‍♀️ I really appreciate this🫶🏻
AND YESSS! Oh, the spinoffs, I'm so freaking excited to start writing and sharing them with you all!!❤️❤️❤️

Tumblr media
Meeting the family of your partner for the first time was always nerve-wrecking and slightly uncomfortable. Sometimes even extremely so, if the parents weren't too happy about the choice their child had made.
But meeting the royal family of the guy you were going to marry soon, despite knowing barely anything about him, royal life or the customs of his kingdom? And all just because you made out with him?
Now that wasn't just nerve-wrecking or uncomfortable anymore, that was downright horrifying.
But here you were, at a way too large table for the few people that were sitting at it, you next to Taehyung, staring at the food in front of you that servants had brought on a silver platter, realizing once again that this really wasn't what you were used to.
“So, (Y/N),” his mother decided to try and break the ice first, a kind smile on her face and her voice quite cheerful despite the situation. It made you look up from your plate and try to smile as well, “Tell me about yourself.. Taehyung hasn't told me much, apart from you being the prettiest girl in the world.”
“Has he?” but when you turned to Taehyung, he was suddenly very interested in the soup in front of him, pretending not to have heard what his mother had just said, “Well.. I'm afraid there's not much to say about me. I'm just.. you know.. normal.”
“My husband told me you're a student? What are you studying?”
“Oh, it's (Y/S),” you smiled proudly.
“Well, see? That's quite interesting.”
Unlike Taehyung's father, who has been glaring at you throughout the entirety of this dinner, his mother actually made an effort, which was nice. This was probably not what she wanted either, but it almost felt like she understood where her son had been coming from. Wanting to find real love, and not marry the person his parents had chosen for him. It's like she could relate on some level..
“Can I ask you something?” his younger brother spoke for the first time since you met him, looking from you to Taehyung, then back at you and only spoke when you nodded, “How much has he paid you to make out with him?”
“I swear to god..-”
“Taehyung, stop,” his father raised his hand when Tae wanted to get up and walk around the table with the napkin in his hand, but his brother and sister only chuckled, “You're behaving like little children today.”
“Well, we finally have a normal person here,” his sister smiled happily at you, “And I'm happy that she is. Maybe I can have a normal conversation for once and not talk about the latest results of horse racing. Do you like music, (Y/N)? And.. I'm not talking about classical music.”
“I do,” you grinned, “I'm mostly into rap, though. Three of my best friends from college are rappers and trying to make it big..”
“Seriously?” she leaned forward, her eyes suddenly big, “That is so cool! Oh my god, I love rap music!”
The look of her father. It was like a mixture of disgust, as well as annoyance. He didn't seem like the type of guy to enjoy rap music at all. Or maybe it was just your presence that he didn’t like. Taehyung on the other hand could only watch you interact with the.. nice part of his family with a happy smile, glad that they were already accepting you so much.
“I'm glad you're all enjoying yourself over such.. mundane matters. But I think it's time to discuss the reason you're here in the first place, (Y/N),” his father patted his mouth with the napkin, before looking up at you, “Tomorrow there is going to be a press conference, where we will address matters. I will speak first, Taehyung standing next to me. We will explain the situation and tell them what we've discussed before. And then we will introduce you.”
You gulped hard, but nodded anyways.
You could feel a hand over yours, finding it to be Taehyung's, who smiled encouragingly at you. That alone had you calm own a bit.
“Do I.. have to say something?”
“No,” his father laughed, “I want you to smile and act like my son is the love of your life. If you two manage to do that, there shouldn't be a problem.”
“What about Dae, though?” his youngest son asked with a full mouth. Something that he usually never would do, but he just felt so comfortable with you being around. He felt like he could be a little bit more like a teenager for once, “Did you tell her yet?”
“She's.. been informed. But I haven't spoken to her personally yet.”
The rest of the dinner was relatively uneventful. His mother and siblings kept asking you questions and it almost seemed like they were genuinely interested in you and the life that a normal person leads. And even though the life of royalty was always portrayed to be so perfect, you couldn't help but wonder whether these people were actually longing for some normality every once in a while.
And when the dinner was over, Taehyung personally escorted you to your private bedchambers.
Yes. Bedchambers, because this place was bigger than your freaking apartment and it was just one bedroom.
“It has a bathroom right here and if you need anything else, you can either ask me or the maids,” he smiled.
You let yourself sink onto the mattress of the bed, before you fell backwards, letting out a moan and closing your eyes for a moment, “Shit. This is so comfortable.”
“I know, right? Get used to that luxury, I guess.”
You opened one eye again and turned your head so that you could look at him, “How did I do, by the way? At the dinner I mean?”
“Apart from the fact that we definitely need to teach you not to use the same fork and spoon for all meals? Wonderful.”
“I was wondering why there were so many of them,” you laughed and stared back at the ceiling.
Taehyung was a little unsure, because even if you two were supposed to play lovers, you were nowhere near that yet. Like, sure, you both liked each other, a lot more than friends did, but if you were normal college kids, you'd currently be in that awkward 'Are we dating?' phase. So he carefully sat down on the bed next to you, but keeping enough distance between you, just in case.
“Are you okay? About tomorrow? And everything in general?”
“I think so.. I just hope you won't regret all of this, you know? I don't want to make it any worse than it already is.”
“Just be yourself tomorrow and they're all going to love you like my mother and siblings already do. You're that normality that this country is missing.. and maybe having you become queen one day is actually a good thing.. maybe even revolutionary, you know?”
“Queen,” you repeated, slowly sitting up, “You do realize I know absolutely nothing about royalty or ruling, right?”
“We've got time to teach you all of it.. And I'll be by your side every step of the way.”
You smiled at him, taking a risk by sliding closer to him and leaning against his chest. Tae reacted right away and wrapped his arms around you, that same smile that you had creeping on his face.
Neither of you said anything else that night, you just remained in that position of holding each other, while Taehyung occasionally dropped kisses against your head.
This felt oddly right. It was new and it was not what you were used to, but it felt right nevertheless.
So as unsure as you had been and still were about the whole marriage thing, it was moments like these that made you think you'd be okay with it all, as long as you could be with him.
At some point, you must have both fallen asleep, since you woke up the next morning with his arms still wrapped around you, but your head now resting on his chest. And unfortunately you hadn't been woken up by your the alarm on your phone, but by his mother and sister standing in front of you.
“Oh my god,” you instantly rolled away from Taehyung, “It's not what it looks like, I swear!”
“Taehyung,” his mother crossed her arms in front of her chest and let him sit up and rub the sleep out of his eyes before she continued, “Did you use protection?”
“Mother!”
“No, we really didn't..-”
“Can you imagine?” her daughter turned towards her mother, laughing wholeheartedly, “Imagine them having a baby even before the wedding. Oh, the scandals! I love it!” she pulled you towards her, “You're my new best friend, (Y/N)!”
Well, your best friend at home would probably not like that, but you also didn't complain that she liked you so much.
Apparently they had come here because they wanted to help you get ready for the day and didn't want to leave it all in the hands of the maids to find the perfect outfit, hairstyle and make-up look.
But while his sister was already dragging you towards the bathroom, Taehyung's mother sat down next to him.
“You promise me to be careful, right?”
“I didn't sleep with her, mother. We just talked and then we fell asleep.”
“I'm saying this for the future as well. Your father barely accepted this marriage, but if she becomes pregnant before the marriage, there is nothing even I can do to calm him down anymore.”
“I'm not that stupid. I know what condoms are and I know how to use them,” he remembered that lesson that he had to sit through when he became of age. A shudder ran down his spine just thinking about that wooden penis and the condom and the way his teacher taught him how to roll it on. Ugh, it had been so stupid and awkward.
“Good,” she smiled and kissed his cheek, “Now go to your room and get ready. Breakfast will be waiting for you.”
“Take good care of her? Please?” he sounded so cute and worried in that moment, that his mother couldn't help but chuckle.
“Don't worry. Your bride will be fine.”
And as soon as he was alone in the room, he fell back down onto your bed with a happy grin.
His bride.
You..
Because he'd marry you.
Tumblr media
Taehyung didn't actually see you up until the press conference again.
But when he did.. oh boy.
It's not that he didn't like the way you looked before, he obviously fell for you when you were your natural self. But his mother and sister have been doing this for their entire lives, so they knew how to make a woman.. accentuate her features.
While he was in his usual suit, looking like the prince that he was, you were wearing a simple, yet elegant navy blue dress with black heels that matched his outfit. Your make-up look was natural again, but he could tell that it had been done by professionals and your hair had been straightened.
His breath literally got stuck in his throat when you approached him and he was already worried about seeing you in one of the ballgowns for the first time, because if he reacted like that upon seeing you in casual dresses, he'd surely have a heart attack when seeing you in something more fancy, right?
“Do you like it?” you giggled as you looked down at yourself.
“You.. fuck.”
“Taehyung!” his mother scolded when he used a swear word.
“Sorry, sorry,” he shook his head, then looked back up into your eyes, “You're beautiful.”
“Thank you.”
The cameras and everything was already set up and the family was waiting in the room next to it. When his father came in, Tae immediately grabbed your hand and squeezed it once.
“Don't worry okay? We'll pull this off.”
“I know,” and if the room hadn't been full of his family, maids and servants and other people that helped the family, you would have leaned over to kiss him. But because of all that, you just settled for a small smile, before Taehyung followed his father into the other room and you turned your head to the screen, where you could watch the live press conference.
At first he just greeted everyone in the room and everyone watching, but then he came to the really important part. The part why everyone was here and watching today.
“As you all have probably heard by now, there have been headlines about my son, Prince Kim Taehyung, being involved with another woman, even though he and Princess Dae were supposed to marry soon. I would like to hereby give a statement and explain the situation to everyone out there,” he waited a second, before he looked back up at all the people in the room, “My son and Princess Dae have had an arrangement to get married ever since they were children. Something that many royals do. But you need to understand that these arrangements don't usually involve love. It is purely for the benefits of the country and everyone involved. But sometimes.. sometimes the universe has a different plan for even us. Even for princes and kings. And so what happened, was that my son fell in love with another woman. That woman that you see him kissing in the papers. Now I know the rumors say that he and this woman haven't actually met before, but that is a blatant lie. My son has met her three years ago. And they fell in love.”
A couple of gasps resonated through the room and the king let them settle down again, before he continued with this made-up story.
“Because my son has always wanted what was best for this country, he kept this a secret. From all of us. He wanted the prosperity of our country more than his own happiness. Something that I can only applaud him for,” he turned around and put his hand on his shoulder.
But Taehyung knew that the look he gave him was saying the complete opposite. Because Taehyung did the complete opposite.
“That I found out about this love affair was only accidental. He and I talked about it for a long time and discussed every single possibility. But you need to understand that I am not only king, but a father as well. And to all of you out there having a child, you will understand. You will understand that you just want your child to be happy and you want to know that even if you'll be gone from this world, they're going to be in good hands. And when I met his lover, I realized that that was exactly the case. He met someone that I knew would take good care of him.”
“But she's just a commoner,” one of the people in the room screamed and Taehyung had to bite his tongue as to not let an insult slip.
“You're right. She is just a commoner. But why should that be a bad thing? Isn't a commoner more likely to understand the problems and needs of the normal people of this country? The people that depend on us to make decisions? Isn't she going to bring a new perspective that we've never had before?” again, a small pause, “I truly believe that she will bring something to this family that we haven't had before. That no royal family had before. We will break the barriers of royalty and the normal people of this country. I believe, that this will only bring us closer together.”
Nobody said anything to that.
Because the king knew it was good. He knew that it was a good idea.
“She won't bring riches, she won't bring land, but she is bringing my son happiness and I truly believe she will bring happiness to this country as well,” that.. was a lot of responsibility. And you could feel your palms beginning to sweat at that. Bring happiness to the country? How the hell were you supposed to do that? “So I hereby announce that the wedding of my son and princess Dae will not be happening.”
Again, a couple of gasps, the first people jumping up and wanting to ask questions, but the king quickly shook his head.
“Instead, let me introduce you to the woman that my son will indeed marry,” the king turned to the door, while the maids pushed you forward a bit, “Please welcome, the future princess of this country and the betrothed to my son, Lady (Y/N).”
You remembered what his mother and sister had said beforehand.
Take a deep breath, check.
Smile, check.
And then you just walk and pretend like you're okay, even though you're having a mental breakdown.
That was fun, by the way.
But seeing Taehyung standing there, smiling at you like you were the only one for him.. like he truly believed this was right and that he wanted to marry you, by his own free will, that did make it better.
He kissed your cheek when you were right beside him, his arm wrapped around your waist as the flashes were going off like crazy. His father smiled too, but unlike yours, his was absolutely fake.
For a second, all you two did was smile at all the cameras, before he leaned down to your ear and whispered: “I'm going to kiss you, okay?”
He told you, because he didn't want you to look too surprised when he did, because that would have been suspicious. You had to act like you’ve been doing this for years and not just.. you know.. days.
It wasn't passionate, but gentle. It had meaning..
His lips softly pressed against yours, just for a moment, before he pulled back and looked directly into your eyes.
Somehow, the flashes of the cameras and the questions the paparazzi were screaming towards you all faded away. All you could see was him. All you could focus on was him.
And that's when you knew.
Love at first sight did exist.
It just took you a bit longer to realize it.

The Undying Fire - Boogum
"He has the eyes, Princess Ursa." They were half-forgotten words, a whisper of fears never explained. Zuko had dismissed it all as nothing to worry about—until he somehow healed the Avatar.

Since God of War(2018) came out, my writing creativity has returned fully and I've been writing and writing tons of one-shot stories of my fave characters. There will be violence and gore because it's a God of War game, but then there will also be fluff and more fluff because it's me writing it. Have fun
Carry My Fears as the Heavens Set Fire - furtivus
Kratos doesn't reach the Travel Room doors in time. Now his son is lost to him, swept away by Baldur and held captive in the grasp of the Æsir. Only the gods are a lot more hospitable than Atreus imagined - and certainly nowhere near as bad as his father ever made them out to be. This is really what it's like to be a god, isn't it? While Kratos is doing everything in his power to bring his son home, Atreus is relishing in everything that was denied to him for so long. And deep inside, a seed of resentment begins to bloom. Maybe being a god isn't so bad after all.

Kratos can only do certain things when no one else is watching.

Fullmetal Alchemist
A Boy Named Ed - BelloftheSea
Ed knew he was different. It wasn't just that he was smarter than the other kids or even that he had automail.

hi laura!! sorry this is a bit late i barely survived finals week :’) i just woke up after sleeping for like 18 hrs after my last exam fjdns
oooo yes i love yanqing too!! they’re my fav ship apart from wangxian (also jc/lwj w h a t why would anyone do that o.O)
halsey!!!! i love her sm i’ve followed her from the time she released badlands (i was such an emo kid istg that album was everything to me) omg your music taste is so similar to mine wtf??? the other side by ruelle AND mystery of love AND folklore ur taste is exquisite. i’ll check out the other songs i’m sure i’ll like them! (also based on your music taste i recommend u listen to the loch ness monster by matilda mann 10/10 would recommend)
okay today’s questions!
🎀 since i asked about non-canon ships last time, what is your favourite fic you’ve ever read in the mdzs fandom? or a favourite trope?
🎀 tell me about your favourite show(s)/movies other than cql/mdzs! i need something to binge watch over winter break hehe
hope you’re doing well! it’s getting cold where i live so if it’s the same where you live i hope you’re staying warm >.< now that i’m free i will try to send asks more often! - 🍵
hey c!! don't worry, you have to take care of yourself, i'm glad that you finally have more time for yourself too!
sleeping 18 hours after being stressed is valid, after a panick attack i once slept like 16 hours simply because i was extremely exhausted.
i listened to the song and it's!!! so good!! i really like this part of the song: now you've faded, / with no traces, /so who could ever tell. / what you've taken's, / been misplaced / but your name doesn't ring any bells, / since the day that they took you to hell.
halsey is!!! i remember hearing badlands when it came out but i only really got into her mid 2018? i listened to hopeless fountain kingdom then and realized that badlands and hfk where both from the same person!! folklore is @/keepyourlife's fault, annika reblogged a bunch of things and just went crazy over it, so i listened to it. i don't listen to much else from taylor, i like getaway car a lot tho tbh. i saw mystery of love in a wangxian edit on youtube and went !!!!!! over that song, so now i'm obsessed with it.
1. i've got a bunch of favorite fics but _none of them are finished _and ajdkskks i do have some that are finished but i can't remember for the life of me what they're called. so here are five of my favorites: love, in fire and blood by cicer (which i'm recommending to all of my mutuals always) which is a 212K wip of immortal/yp!wwx + war prize au with no rpe/noncon but in the first two chapters lwj is afraid of that happening. it doesn't. then there is this time/universe/dimension travel fic called a song to bring you home by neoserenity, where basically canon!lwj who mourns wwx meets a modern!sick wwx and apparently there is no modern equivalent of lwj? or at least wwx doesn't seem to know one. the updates are sparse but i reread this so often in hopes that updates will appear. an arrow through time by syrus_jones is a young!lwj time traveling to post canon mdzs and pining after "husband" and wwx at the same time and feeling guilty over it bcs he doesn't know wwx is "husband" and then there is the murder of crows by cerbykerby which is a yilingwei sect au. here is a modern office au: hello, IT. have you tried turning it off and on again?* **by overmountainandmeadow, which us just really funny so i've been reading this for stress relief. i actually quote like time travel aus? also just wangxian meeting other versions of themselves is fun!! i have a bunch of modern college au tabs open but i don't actually seek them out, if i see one and like the plot then i'll read it. there are a lot of good time travel aus in this fandom!! also i like it when people get wangxian together earlier than in canon, it's just really fun to see how that would go. i don't remember the name but i think there was one fic where lwj tried to flirt with wwx and wwx just didn't notice? until somebody pointed it out to him i think? that was fun to read because lwj was just so frustrated!!
2. i feel like i forget what shows i watched after i watched them? movies too, though i like to stick to rewatching movies i already know. but here are some shows: dark on netflix, if you have netflix it should be there, it's a german netflix show about time travel and fate and things being really fucked up. basically there is this endless loop of the world apocalypse happening in 2019? 2020? i'm not that sure of the timeline rn but it's either 2019 or 2020!! and jonas, the male lead, wants to prevent it but this shit gets complicated because this is a time loop, everything he has done has been done before him. there are some really great quotes in the show about things, there is a wangxian gifset that actually uses a quote from dark, and that's the one about having three deaths. (i'll probably add a link to the gifset when i find it) also martha, the female lead, seems not that important in the first season but don't be fooled by that. the ending is.... complex and cool and holy shit there is still one thing we don't know and ahdkksks it's a surprise tho so 👀👀. i recommend watching it in german if possible and with subtitles. i've watched a few scenes in english and idk the voice actors don't seen to fit, but i don't know about other languages. the 100 is also a pretty good show but it's.... it has queerbaiting. and to be honest, the queerbaiting is probably the only reason the show made it to a seventh season. lexa, a lesbian, dies and they use her death for the queerbaiting since she gets together with clarke, the lead character. clarke is a character that gets a lot of hate from both fandom and the characters, a lot of unfair hate if you ask me. she has to do a lot of decisions that are just not meant to be for a single human being, @/solntserises and i and a lot of arguements over placing the blame on her or placing the blame on society and the situation itself. clarke basically does what she needs to do, what she needs to do in order to protect her people, her friends, her family. she often just doesn't have good options, and if she has then she deems the risk too high or something too good to be true (which, she often is right about???). after s1 her friends push her into situations where she has to make the hard choice, but if it doesn't work out how they want it to work out they get mad at her. which is not fair. i remember hearing that raven finally understands what clarke goes through in s7? but i haven't watched the season. i gave up the moment lexa died and didn't want to watch past it, but when @/solntserises started we watched the other seasons together.
there is also shadowhunters which is an okay show ig, i've watched vikings until s5 too and i quite liked it, prison break has a lot of cool stuff to offer but i'd be careful watching it in case of any triggers you might have. i don't remember 100% of the plot but enough to say that one of the characters is a pervert and an awful person, so lots of murder, a lot of blood and yeah. the two main characters are brothers and mostly innocent in this but yeah. they break out of a prison y'know.
lucifer is !!! i think it goes after dc comics? so ig it's somehow part of the dceu but they're like.... never mentioned so idk. it's really fun tho!! you probably have heard from the vampire diaries right? yeah well, there is a spin off called the origianls and it's actually really good. it had some times where i was going to call it off but it's fine, legacies is both tvd's and to's spinoff and from the quality it can't really compare, it's still fun to watch and seeing the new generation grow up. (also a lot more canon gays)
for some movies: i don't really watch many but i've watched every movie in the mcu so far, i have the extended special editions for both the lord of the rings and the hobbit trilogy, the half of it is about ellie chu, an asian girl living in a small town with her depressed dad and falling in love with aster flores, and just.... finding herself, finding out what she wants, who she is and trying to figure out where life takes her. the movie is great!! the romance process is really slow and not that much of the main focus, but more of ellie finding her place in the world? the old guard is a fantastic movie that i watched because of @/keiraknigthly, it's really fun to watch!!
i look forward to talking to you more often!! 🥰💞

WELCOME BACK!
 <3 I really missed you, and it’s so great to hear you had fun! (and omg yes so ready to see all those beautiful pics)
Yaaayyyy join me in MCU feels hell. And oooh, you have a ship for the fandom now! Like, Stoki’s still my favorite Steve pairing but Stony’s really cool too…you know I ship almost everything XD (also am I the only person who sorta hated almost everyone by the end of CW? Like, of course they’re still my favs and there are still some cinnamon rolls, but, come on. Why couldn’t you all just get along ;-;)
Speaking of Illumi, do you know that Hisoka/Illumi is an incredibly popular ship in the HxH fandom? Probably because both of them are so horrible that they have like 0 friends other than each other. Nobody else wants to hang out with these losers. (Chrollo tolerates Hisoka and the adults in Illumi’s family seem to spend enough time with him to give him orders, but that’s about it.) It’s a trash ship with two trashy people and tbh I love it XD
So continuing with the eye jokes, imagine. Hisoillu version of Helpless. Hisoillu version of Satisfied.
“Look into his eyes and the sky’s the limit”
“Intelligent eyes in a hunger-pang frame”
(I know you did thise one before but still) “But when I fantasize at night, it’s Illumi’s eyes”
just, I’m imagining animatics for this with the ‘camera’ zooming in on Illumi’s dead fish eyes every time the lyrics mention them. It’s hilarious and also mildly terrifying
(though I guess if we’re actually making a Hamilton AU Hisoka’s way more likely to do something like Say No To This…)
idk if I’d want to be a parent either really LOL. Kids are adorable but I don’t think I’ll ever be responsible enough to raise one…
If Ishida makes a plot twist or something about it being someone else pretending to be Hide I'm actually gonna get mad. Dude. Not only would that bring the Hide feels right back it’d just make absolutely no sense omg
(also you read the new chapter, right? So, let’s talk about Juuzou and that huge death flag)
I’ve heard of Soul Eater and considered reading it but it’s not really the kind of thing I’m into…artwork’s cute, though, and Death the Kid seems like an interesting guy so maybe someday XD
AGH I’M ACTUALLY SORTA JEALOUS BECAUSE WOW I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA HOW TO WATCH THAT LEGALLY HERE IN KOREA. (unless I ask my dad for help but he doesn’t like manga/anime at all, so…) But yes, I’m really happy Lizzy finally got her moment this time! Now anime-only fans can’t complain about her being a ‘shallow’ character so hopefully there’ll be less fighting over Lizzy in the Kuro fandom :D
FINALLY. Fellow Death Note fan <3333 Who’s your fav? Do you have any ships? Are you done with the anime??? :D (also do you know…you picked a really interesting time to join the DN fandom. The American live-action movie just came out and it sucks so freaking bad, like I haven’t even watched it yet and just from the reviews/clips, here’s what I got:
-They turned Misa into this Harley Quinn-type character. Only without any depth.
-Light/Misa is an actual canon ship, like, it’s not abusive or one-sided like it is in the anime/manga, it’s just…a thing. Light loves Misa. Misa loves Light. It’s like every cringey high school romance movie ever, only with more murder
-They freaking bent the Death Note rules just so Light could get away with all sorts of ridiculous stuff
-L cries, L rants, L is overly emotional
-Light tells L where he hid a page from his Death Note. Light doesn’t deny being Kira. Light shows Misa his Death Note when they like barely know each other and she’s still a complete stranger to him. Light acts like an idiot.
-Oh sure, he’s Kira, God of the New World, but he still cares about going to prom with his girlfriend and making stupid faces as they pose for pictures
-So much unnecessary gore. Heart attacks are Kira’s thing, Light isn’t that emotional about his kills, he doesn’t care as long as the 'villains’ are dead, so why???
-Apparently Rem does not exist. Sayu doesn't exist either. Light’s mom is dead (probably so he can angst over her)
-Light Turner. Light TURNER. Out of all the surnames they could have chosen…
-And now, for the most unforgivable sin:
How dare they not include the Potato Chip scene)
And then random things: JJ and Light have the same voice actor. Yurio and Mello (imo…have you met Mello yet?) could be long-lost twins.
Also:
I’ve fallen into Steven Universe hell and now I’m imagining so. Many. Gem AUs. Have you ever heard of SU?
(look:
1- don’t stress about the messages, and come on, I’d never get mad at you over something like this! You’re way too awesome.
2-  I don’t really know what to say 'cause I’m bad at comforting people, but ugh, it sucks to hear that school’s tiring you out! Queen Luna’s gonna get through this, though. I mean, you’re great at so many things and you’re freaking smart and…this is awkward but maybe you understand Evans Language by now? XD Guess I’m just trying to say that I’m sure you’ll do great, and if you ever need someone to talk to I’m (almost) always free *hugs*
3- Um. So, other than tumblr, I think the only way I can talk with you right now is if we email each other? The email address I used this time is my real one (or rather, my dad’s, since I don’t have one of my own yet…) so maybe we can talk about this more through email and find a better way to contact each other? If that’s ok with you can you send me a message there?)
P.S:
I’ve started college and have no idea what I’m doing
*slams head against keyboard* guess who managed to get sick. It’s only been a week since school started. Whatever, I’m still going to school, but I woke up breathing like a fish on land, bc asthma. Yay.
I’m definitely gonna upload the pics today!!
Okay, but one thing I’m wondering about, is How? Not in a malicious way or anything, I’m genuinely curious to why you ship Stoki (and where it began). Was it that redemption fic you told me about or did you ship it before? 
Tbh, I didn’t hate the characters in CW, I hated the situation. Because there’s so so much pointless conflict that could easily be solved if everyone sat down and talked like normal people. But nooo we have to go around attacking each other. ((ALSO CAP’S LETTER TO TONY, I AM DEAD))
I’ve already learned (and experienced) that shipping is a very weird and unusual thing, so I’ll be honest and say I’m not even surprised that ship exists. At least it has some basis XD
I’m actually tempted to go through the lyrics of the whole musical and find every single eye line there is, only to replace it w Illumi’s eyes.
Not only zooming in on the eyes, the word itself is louder than the rest XD man if only I could draw…
Tbh I’d say I’m responsible enough (HA, that’s more or less a lie), but I’m honestly way too irritated with the little ones to be able to have one of my own. My cousin recently celebrated her 3rd bday and I was stuck looking after her during the party, bc all the adults were talking among themselves and I swear to god, I haven’t moved that much since I had to run 2km for PE. Where do they get their energy. Not to mention the adults thought it would be a good idea to leave me w her, because I’d already drunk 3 glasses of wine (i was bored and not allowed to do anything other than stare at emptiness or look after a 3yo). Turns out my tolerance isn’t that bad after all.
Lol let’s be honest, Ishida would totally do that. He knows the fandom would riot and that’s the whole point.
All the death flags. Tbh I don’t know how I feel about it. It’s obvious that either Touka or Juuzou are probably gonna die and I wan’t neither (If I have to choose tho, I’d rather Juuzou survives.) Also Naki. HNNNNNNGH
I think you’d actually like the manga? It takes a pretty dark turn compared to the anime and deals with lots of mental issues (the whole theme of the later volumes is Madness). Also, lots of death XD Well, the artwork changes drastically, so which one are you talking about XD
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The girl in the coat (left first pic, middle 2nd) is the same person for reference. Death the Kid was one of my first anime crushes. The guy has OCD and is a total badass. 
MUHAHAHAHA I think someone uploaded the Lizzy fight to youtube so you can probably find it there, but I am in love. The animation is beautiful, so that’s also a huge plus. All in all, it was handled really well.
Death Note
Tumblr media
So last I’ve watched is ep 25, aka the one WHERE L DIES. And i am not okay. I am nowhere near okay. Nope. Not at all.
Oh i’ve heard all about the adaptation. Tbh I find the whitewashing hilarious. Setting the movie in America removes so much of the series’s logic, so why? L being the way he is is probably my favourite mistake. They took the best character and ruined him completely.  POTATO CHIP SCENE NOOOO But my question is: did everything go just according to the keikaku?
Have fun w SU! I’ve watched it for a while, but gave up at some point. I might pick it up again if I have the time ^^ Word of advice, watch out for the fandom, they’re among the most toxic ones I’ve ever encountered. One time, they almost drove an artist to suicide because she didn’t draw Rose ‘thick enough’. So yeah.
Tumblr media
What did I do to deserve you as my friend TT^TT Thank you so so much, those words mean more than you can imagine.
Um. Looks like we’ll be staying here, because I never, ever check my mail, despite getting school assignments there, so yeah. If we used mail, you’d probably get a response every leap year.
How does the education system work in Korea? Like, at what age do you start going to which school?
Also, I’ve told you about Mystic Messenger? I think you’d like the newest update, because damn, it’s creeping me out. Also, it’s in Korean, so + ((My thoughts during the prologue of the new route: Nani the fuck))

TWTTA Chapter 2
A/N: Guess who is finally updating her hamliza fic?! This girl!! Guess who also posted this twice and it was a mess! This girl! I apologize for taking so long to get this up, but it’s here now and I hope you all enjoy it! Nothing really big happens in this chapter. We just see into Eliza’s relationship with everyone, and I think it came about decent enough, I hope so anyway. Also, Thank you for reading this! I’m pretty sure this will be a long fic, so please stick around! Oh! And I’m making a Playlist for this story and I’ll be adding new songs with each chapter I post. I’ll be linking that to each chapter as its posted once it’s ready :) I love you Lovely Wonderful People, I wish the happiest of days!
Chapter 2
Eliza woke up the next morning, feeling slightly light headed, but it was nothing an aspirin and a shower couldn’t fix.
As she swings her legs off the bed, her phone begins ringing. She sees it’s Peggy and smiles.
“Helloo?”
“It’s the best little sister in the world calling!”
“I never would’ve guessed,” Eliza says smirking.
“Ha ha ha, are you coming to have breakfast with me or what?” she says in a playfully annoyed tone.
“I didn’t know I was invited, and isn’t it twelve already?”
“Fine. Brunch then. Come on Betsey! Please!”
“Of course, darling sister of mine, of course,” Eliza smiles and lightly chuckles at her sister.
“Yay!” she says excitedly and Eliza could picture her jumping up and down.
“I’ll need at least an hour to get ready, is that okay?”
“Of course! As long as I get to see you!”
“I feel so important.”
“You are to me, now hurry up!”
They planned on where to meet and said their goodbyes. Eliza got ready quickly, not wanting to keep her sister waiting.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Eliza was happy to see that she had arrived first to the little café a few blocks from where she lived. Her sisters hated waiting, she wondered if it was hereditary. Their mother was never very patient, and neither were her sisters. She took more after her father she guessed.
Eliza was taken out of her musings when she heard her name being called. She looked up to see Peggy nearly rushing over to her.
“Eliza!” she exclaimed as jumped into her sisters arms.
Eliza held her tight for a moment before letting go, she sometimes forgot how much she loved spending time with her sisters.
“Did you miss me that much, Peg? I’m not that exciting to be around,” Eliza joked as they released from their embrace.
Peggy gave a signature eye roll as she took her seat and Eliza laughed.
“You know you’re fun to hang out with, so be quiet, and of course I missed you,” she stated with a shake of her head as she picked up her menu.
Eliza never quite understood why Peggy and Angelica made such a fuss over her, but she figured it could just be because they loved her so much.
Now, that she understood she adored her sisters, they were her best friends. They were both incredibly gorgeous, not to mention completely wonderful and strong. She admired them so much.
As they talked and laughed about random things. Peggy looked over at her sister and couldn’t understand why she saw so little in herself. She was so kindhearted and loving. She was smart and funny, she was one of the best people she knew. Peggy and Angelica always tried letting her know how great she was, but Eliza would usually blush and shake her head or laugh the compliments away.
“Is everything okay, Peg? Do I have something on my face?” Eliza asked dabbing her face with a napkin, and checking her clothing for spills.
“No, no, you’re as beautiful as ever,” Peggy smiles at her sister.
“I think you mean as plain as ever,” Eliza laughs.
Peggy shook her head and frowned.
“I wish you wouldn’t do that,” Eliza looked at her younger sister in slight confusion. “You always put yourself down in little ways and I don’t like it. You are beautiful Eliza, whether you choose to believe it or not. It’s a fact.”
Eliza looked taken aback by her sisters small rant, but she looked down and smiled. Her and Angelica were always praising her in some way, and she appreciated it, but she found it unnecessary. She could see that she upset Peggy and hated that so she decided to receive her compliment with a little more grace.
“Thank you, dearest. Your compliments mean the world to me, I didn’t mean to upset you,” Eliza reaches for her sisters hand and gives it a gentle squeeze.
Peggy gives her a wary look before smiling and squeezing back.
“It’s okay, just please stop putting yourself down.”
Eliza nods in agreement and Peggy gets up to embrace her sister. Eliza smiles and hugs her hoping Peggy could feel her love and gratitude.
Peggy’s phone began to ring as they pulled away. She looked down to see who it was.
“It’s Laf,” tells Eliza.
“Ummm….” Peggy looks over at Eliza.
“Would you mind if he joined us?”
Eliza shook her head.
“Of course not, he’s more than welcome.”
Peggy smiled and nodded as she told Laf where to meet them. Eliza smiled at the sparkle in her sisters eyes when she spoke to Laf. Eliza had always liked Lafayette, even before he started dating Peggy. He had always been a gentleman and very kind, although he could get a little boisterous if he had one too many.
But his character always proved to be honorable and kind. After he and Peggy started dating she saw a shift in him. It wasn’t anything too drastic it was small, but she could see it. The way he always made sure Peggy was close by in a crowded place and made sure she was comfortable. He was protective of her without being possessive, and he always made her laugh. And one thing that if you weren’t really paying attention you wouldn’t see it, a sparkle in his eye everytime he saw Peggy.
That’s how Eliza knew that he truly cared for her sister and she couldn’t think of anyone better for her darling sister. She deserved the world and Eliza was sure he was the one who would give it to her.
Eliza smiled fondly as she watched the couple embrace. Lafayette had the biggest smile on his face as he picked up Peggy and twirled her around. Eliza laughed at her sisters light giggle, and waited for them to make their way to her.
“Well, if it isn’t the lovely Eliza Schuyler,” Laf said slightly bowing in front of her, as Eliza chuckled.
“And if it isn’t the charming Lafayette,” she replies standing and giving him a curtsy in return. He laughs as she rises and he pulls her into a hug.
“Merci, for letting me join, mon ami,” he says as he takes a seat next to Peggy, placing his arm over her shoulders.
“Of course, we’re all friends right? Why wouldn’t you join us? Besides I like having you around. You keep Peggy distracted while I can sneak in some reading.”
Laf laughs as Peggy has a shocked expression on her face.
“I swear, Eliza, you didn’t bring a book with you when you’re having lunch with me.”
“Of course not Peg, I would never,” Eliza says crossing her heart.
Peggy slightly glares at her sister, before nodding. The three of them sit there chatting for another hour before parting ways. Eliza made a note herself to make more of an effort to spend time with both her sisters.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
A couple days later, Eliza sees a text from John.
-You want to hang out with your favorite person tonight?
*My favorite person? Why is Herc telling you text me?
Eliza chuckled at his quick reply, she adored John, but he could be slightly cocky at times so she liked to tease him every once in while.
-DON’T PLAY WITH ME LIKE THAT LIZA, YOU KNOW I’M YOUR FAVORITE!
Eliza chuckles at his reply, and shakes her head, he had to use all caps.
*Of course you are John, my absolute favorite person. What are we doing today fav?
-That’s better…I figured we could see a movie or something
*Hmmm, how about a movie and some ice cream afterwards?
-YES I’ll see you in 30
She shook her head again, and grabbed her things.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
She was surprised to see John outside the theater waiting for her. She was usually the early between the two.
John smiled wide when he saw her, and met her halfway with a tight embrace.
“So, I was your last resort, huh?” Eliza joked as she pulled away.
“Come on Liza, you know you’re my favorite too,” he said with a slight smirk.
“Uh huh, what is everyone else doing?” she questions with her eyebrows raised.
He pursed his lips before sighing.
“Laf and Peg have a date night, Alex had to work on something and Herc had a date,” she nodded smiling, “but I would’ve texted you even if everyone was free!”
“I’m sure you would have, John,” she gave him a pat before starting to walk into the theater.
“Hey,” he says softly, grabbing her arm. “I do think we should hang out more, you’re always a lot of fun and I think we could be even better friends if we tried, you know?” he looks down, rubbing his neck feeling shy.
Eliza softly smiles at him as she places a hand on his shoulder to get his attention.
“I always have a lot of fun with you too, John. And I think we’re pretty good friends already, but I’m down for becoming great friends, maybe even best friends.”
He smiles at her, and laughs a little before standing straight and offering her his arm.
“Well, shall we go bestie?”
Eliza laughs as she loops her arm through his.
“Absolutely.”
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
It was 7 a.m. and Eliza’s phone was ringing on her bedside table. She reached over to see Angelica was calling.
“Hey Ange, what’s up?” she asks trying to stifle a yawn.
“Crap, I just woke you up. I’m sorry Betsey.”
“No, no its fine Angie, don’t worry about it. Is everything okay?”
“Yeah, I was just wondering if I could come over later? I’ve been writing like crazy and I figured I’d take a day off with my wonderful sister.”
Eliza smiled, Angie loved coming over to her place for two reasons: the snacks and the binge watching Spanish soap operas on Netflix. They always did this together, it had started in high school and continued through college and now.
“Of course you can Angie, I’ll make some snacks and scroll through some options for us to choose from.”
“I love you so much, Betsey. You know you’re like my favorite person, right?”
Eliza chuckles and sits up.
“I love you too, Angie. What time do you want to come over?”
“I’ll give you some more time to sleep and get ready, how about twelve?”
“Sounds perfect, I’ll see you soon Angie.”
“See you soon, Betsey.”
Eliza hung up, and rubbed the sleep from her eyes. She figured she would just get up, since she was awake. She had to go to the store anyways.
She took a shower, and decided to get breakfast at the café down the street, before heading to the store.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
As Eliza walked around the store, picking up various items she needed and some just because she knew Angie liked them, she felt her cart bump into someone else’s.
She looks up to apologize to the stranger, but instead finds an all too familiar face.
“Hey Eliza,” Alexander greats her with a surprised smile. Although he wasn’t really surprised at all. He had seen her down the aisle and bumped into her cart on “accident”.
She can’t help but smile back, it was like an instant reaction.
“Hey Alex, grocery shopping?” she asks the obvious question with her eyebrows raised, and her smile still in place.
He chuckles lightly and nods.
“Yeah, I was sent out with a list and specific instructions on what to get. Apparently, if she doesn’t tell me exactly what to get I pick up the wrong thing,” he says as he rolls his eyes.
Eliza giggles and shakes her head, she knew her sister was right, she had been there on plenty of occasions where Alex came home with the wrong thing. It annoyed Angie to no end, so she made sure to be really specific.
“And she sent you all the way to this store specifically, huh?”
Alex looked down as he chuckled, trying to hold the blush on his cheeks back. If he was being completely honest, he knew that Eliza frequented this store and he came on the off chance he might get to see her.
“Yeah, yeah, she wanted some of those weird veggie chips, and they don’t have them at the store closer to our apartment,” he quickly came up with an excuse.
Eliza slowly nodded and held up a bag of the chips he was talking about.
“She’s coming over today, so I just picked some out,” she says laughing. She never noticed Alexander’s blush, or his relief when she believed his lie. She never had any reason to believe he was lying to her.
“Mind if I shop with you, Betsey?” he asks knowing the nickname would make her blush. He loved calling her that, but he never dared to do it in front of anyone else.
She did immediately, and hated that it came so easily. She looked away for a moment before turning back to him.
“Of course,” she says smiling.
They walked around picking up items and talking easily. Conversation always flowed so easily between them. It was something Eliza sometimes wished wasn’t so simple for them. If it wasn’t, maybe it would be easier for her feelings to dissipate.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
As they walked out of the store, Alexander insisted on seeing her home. She said she would be fine, but he gave her a stern look.
“Ange would kill me if I didn’t make sure you got home safely.”
She pursed her lips and nodded. He was right Angelica was protective over both her and Peggy, she would be upset if she knew Alex didn’t see her home.
They got a taxi and once they arrived at her apartment, he helped her with the groceries.
“Thanks for all your help Alex, I really appreciate it,” she says giving him a small smile at her door.
“Of course,” he says shrugging. “You know I’d do anything for you Betsey.”
And there it was, the stupid blush. She wished he wouldn’t say things like that, but she knew he meant it platonically.
She nodded again and smiled at him.
“Right, well, I’ll see you around,” she said giving him an awkward salute and a wink. He laughed as he smiled at her, and shook his head.
“Yeah, I’ll see you around,” he says stepping forward to give her a hug.
She takes a breath as his arms go around her middle. She pauses a moment before her arms go around his shoulders. He gives her a tight squeeze and it takes everything in her not bury her head in the crook of his neck.
They pull away, even though he wanted to hold her for a second longer. Eliza took another step away from him, wanting to put distance between them.
“Bye Alex.”
“Bye Betsey.”
Eliza closed her door and sighed. She shook her head, trying to clear it and made her way to the kitchen to prepare snacks for the afternoon with Angelica and pushed all thoughts of Alexander out of her head.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Angelica arrived right on time, and embraced Eliza as soon as she opened the door. Eliza laughed as Angelica held her tightly and rocked from side to side.
“I missed you so much darling, we haven’t hung out, just the two of us, in far too long.”
“I missed you too dearest,” Eliza hugs her back with all the warmth she can muster before they pull apart.
They settle with blankets, pillows, and snacks on Eliza’s couch, as they watched two women quarrel over some man who was in love with another woman.
Angelica sighed, and rested her head on Eliza’s shoulder.
“This is exactly what I needed. Snacks, rest, Spanish soap operas and my sister.”
Eliza smiled, as she rested her on Angies.
“Well, I’ll always be here when you need me, and I’ll always have snacks,” she jokes. Angelica lifts her head and so does Eliza. She takes Eliza’s hands in hers and gives her sister a warm smile.
“You’re such a wonderful person, you know that?” Eliza shook her head and shrugged her shoulders.
“You are, Betsey, in fact, you may be too wonderful. No one will ever be good enough for you.”
“Angie, don’t exaggerate,” Eliza laughs.
“I’m not,” she says laughing along with Eliza.
“No one will ever be good enough for you, they will have to endeavor to deserve you.”
Eliza’s heart clenched, how could her sister think so much of her, when she had feelings for the person that belonged to her. She felt so awful, but more determined to get past her feelings, her sister deserved that.
Angelica noticed small tears forming in her sisters eyes.
“Aw, darling don’t cry,” she says pulling Eliza into her arms.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to,” she says trying to wipe her tears away.
“Its okay, you’ve always been easily touched, it’s because you have such a big heart.”
“I guess,” Eliza says sarcastically, and they both start laughing as they pull away.
“You know you and Peggy are my most favorite people, right?” Eliza looks at her sister seriously.
“Duh, who else would be your favorite?” she says, brushing a hair out of Eliza’s face and smiling at her sister.
“Just don’t tell John,” Eliza laughs.
“Why would he want to know?” Angelica asks her face scrunched up in confusion.
“He thinks he’s my favorite,” she laughs. “I’m pretty sure it was a joke, but I don’t want to hurt his feelings.”
“Whatever, he should know better,” she say slightly scoffing, before nodding her head. “I’m telling him.”
“Angie, no. He gets so sensitive, even if it is just a joke.”
She shrugs her shoulders and laughs. While, Eliza gives her a pleading look. Angelica sighs.
“Fine, I won’t say anything, but if it ever comes up I’m telling him.”
Eliza laughs and nods at her sister.
“Alright let’s see what Juan is going to do about Lucia,” Eliza says seriously.
“That’s right, she’s about to marry Alberto.”
They ended up watching their show well into the evening, ordering in and joking with each other between the episodes. It was getting late and Angelica figured it was time to go home and get some sleep.
“I’m sorry I woke you up early today.”
“Don’t worry about it, waking up early makes me feel productive anyways.” They embrace one more time as they say their goodbyes.
“Night darling, love you.”
“Love you too, dearest.”
Eliza watches her sister leave, a smile on her face and a determination in her heart. If she’s going to get through this, she’ll need someone to help her. And she knew exactly who that person was.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The weekend had come back around and everyone wanted to hangout. They were all meeting up at Alexander and Angelica’s. Eliza was the second to last to arrive, John arriving after her.
They all have a shot before heading to the bar as a group. John and Alexander leading the way with Laf trying to keep them from going too wild yet, Angelica and Peggy laughing at Alex and John, and Eliza and Hercules walking behind everyone. They smile at their group of friends and shake their heads.
“How ya feeling today, kid?”
Eliza smiles up at Hercules. He deemed her ‘kid’ years ago, she had argued that Peggy should be called kid since she was the youngest. He just shook his head and said ‘she may be the youngest in age, but you’re the youngest at heart, it’s pure.’ She tried to argue for another nickname, but he made up his mind.
“I’m doing alright, Yoda.”
Herc let’s out a laugh as he pulls Eliza into his side. She had started calling him Yoda because he was the oldest of the group and surprisingly always had wise things to say. And she also found their size differences funny. He loved the nickname and accepted right away.
“Good, how’s the ticker?” he says taping a finger over his heart and looking at her with a raised eyebrow.
She looks down and bites her lip, before shrugging her shoulders.
“I’m gonna need a better answer, kid,” he says as he stops them on the sidewalk.
She nods before looking up at him again.
“I actually need your help with that. My ticker.”
He gives her a confused look, she sees everyone a little ways ahead and turns back to Herc.
“I need to get over Alex, but if I spend too much time with him, or if we’re in close proximity all time, I won’t be able to,” he nods in understanding. “Will you act as my barrier?”
Herc purses his lips and rubs a hand over his chin, seeming deep in thought.
“Like a guard, I keep some distance between you two, so your heart has time to heal.”
“Sort of, I mean I’m not heartbroken, I just need to get over my crush, that’s all.”
“Look, if I’m going to help you, I’m not beating around the bush. You may not be heartbroken, but that big heart of yours is aching. You’re hurting and you can pretend, it’s all good, but I see more pain in your eyes than you think.”
Eliza’s eyes widen, as her heart races and she begins to panic. What if everyone can see it? What if they figure it out? She’ll ruin everything.
“Calm down Eliza, it’s not super noticeable unless you’re really paying attention.”
Eliza gives a sigh of relief. Herc pulls her in for a hug, and she stays there, needing to ground herself. She pulls away after a second.
“You okay, kid?” he asks bending down to look her in the eyes. She nods.
He holds out his arm for her to take, and she smiles at him.
“That’s what I like to see, you better keep that up, that’s payment, that and free lunch once a week.”
She chuckles and nods, looping her arm through his.
“Take a deep breath, it’s all going to be okay. I’ll be right here,” he says patting her hand and giving her an encouraging look.
Eliza breathes in deep, exhales, and nods at Herc, before giving him a big smile. He was her confidant and hearing his words brought her the most comfort she’d had in years. She would get over her feelings for Alex, and then she wouldn’t carry any pain in her heart anymore.
“Come on, guys, hurry up!” They hear John yell from the front door of the bar.
“We’re coming!” They say in unison as they make their into the bar.
“What took you so long?” John asks.
“Eliza had to tie her shoes and I waited for her like the true gentleman I am.”
John and Eliza laugh, as her and Herc help John with drinks for the table.
Across the bar at the groups usual table, Alexander has a sinking feeling in his stomach at the sight of Eliza and Hercules linked arms. He can’t understand the need he has to take her from his grasp, and wrap her in his arms. He shakes off the emotion as they join the table. He tries to ignore how close they seem, but even Johns jokes don’t fully distract him. And the rest of the night he wonders just how close they are.

SYITN Chapter 19: A Visit from the Nurse Q&A
I hope you all had a chance to sink in the announcement I gave you. I have left a schedule on my profile for those who haven't checked it out yet about the next time I'll be updating. Okay, so now on to the Q&A!
sibunalover4934: Omg i love this chapter it made me feel better since I'm hoping a pistol comes through the window because people are still shooting because new years just started 23 minutes ago.I also wanted to say that this chapter made my day better! Today I woke up to 2 inches of snow!Which isn't everyday since I live in Southern California.
Me: Wow, it doesn't snow a lot from where I am from. At least not yet. And it's weird because I live in Canada. :/
lilLaine02: I love this chapter! Congrats on 300 reviews! So happy for you!
Me: Thank you! You really helped reach my goal. Hope there's 300 and more soon :)
stephanie: Bringing in the new year with an awesome chapter. :)
Me: Thank you!
Pebblemist of LightClan: Don't let any stupid guests get you down!  An absolutely flawless chapter, as always!
Me: Thanks for your awesome support Pebble. You keep me strong, as you always do. I heard it was your birthday a few days ago! HAPPY BIRTHDAY :)
hml1999: This is a fantastic chapter and I loved it to pieces! I love how the girls are growing and maturing just like how the characters of Boy Meets World did. It really brings the characters to life when you have something like that and relatable characters :) I love your writing so much and I can't wait to see what else is in store for Riley and Maya and I hope you had a fantastic New Year! :D
Me: OMG thanks for the kind review! I try my best to make these characters as relatable as possible. You're review makes me blush! I hope you had a fantastic New Years as well!!!! 
DisneyLover16: Amazing chapter as always. I don't have much to say here in the review, and I can't wait for the season 1 finale chapter. :)
Me: Got your PM and I have to say I love your idea. Will definitely include that ;) 
Liseegirl: Wonderful chapter as always! I really love this story. I particularly enjoy the Shawn/Maya angle. I am, however, VERY curious to see what you do with it when Angela comes into the picture! :)
Me: I love Angela/Shawn. I completely adore them. They're just as cute as Cory and Topanga. I REALLY hope the writers bring in Angela in like season 2 or 3 because I really want them to reunite and get married. But who doesn't really? Maya will definitely step aside for when Angela comes into the picture, but perhaps Shawn doesn't want that? Maya will get very confused about her feelings for Shawn in season 3. Just wait till Dana Pruitt comes into the picture. I can't wait for you to read that!
MyNameIsViolet: Really? A cliffhanger? Please update! :)
Me: Yes, a cliffhanger! :)
demi-wolf3T: Noooooooooooooo not a Cliffhanger )
Me: Hey, haven't heard from you in a while! lol
Emma: I really love this one and I would really like to see more about maya and Shawn and more flirting I really would plus what days do you post bc this is my fav fic
Me: More flirting in season 2. Especially in that closet kissing episode. Fear Strikes Out? Yes, that's what it's called.
HK: Who is at the door!
Me: You'll see!
L.H: I was away for the Christmas holidays with no internet so it was great to come home to three unread chapters!
Me: I hope you had a wonderful time with your family and friends during the holidays. I stayed at home, writing chapters, the usual ;) 
Anonymous: I am African American and I feel u did chapter 7 perfectly. It Shows how good of a author u r because u were able to handle the delicate issue with such grace and maturirity.i Gove u 5 out of 5 stars. Keep writing cause this story is amazing
Me: I feel relieved and glad to know you feel this way. Thanks and I hope to hear more from you! :)
alyssaunicorn: I have two guesses for the person who knocked on the door. Either Nurse Millar or Shawn!
Me: Don't we all wish it was Shawn? Haha 
honeylemon972: Love your work on this chapter
Me: Thanks!
jenna323.m: Great chapter! I'm real excited to get into season two with high school and all. It should be really interesting! I just love this story!
Me: High school. Lots of drama for sure. If there wasn't much before, I'll make sure there will be :) lol that sounded creepy. But yeah, there will be some changes now that they're moving on to high school very soon.
Ali6132: You know the drill. Great chapter, once again. I can't wait to see what Nurse Millar has to say. I put a shoutout in the chapters that I didn't have reviews in. Bye! Great chapter. The suspense of what Nurse Crazy Hat will say is killing me. I love this story. I love how you had Riley stand up for the duck, it really seemed like something that she would do. "And in case I don't see you" (which I probably will), I can't believe that season one is over. Bye!
Me: Lots of things were revealed in this chapter. Nurse Millar brought something back with her, which will affect the girls in season 2. Maya will develop a love for something (no not Shawn lol) but also the girls will keep some secrets from each other, which may change everything for them. Very interesting ;)
Broadwaygirl21: OH, YOU SCARED ME! POOR FEENY. FE-E-E-E-ENY! Sorry for shouting. The feels, man. Who's behind the door? Come on, tell me!  Is it Martha? Or is it Nurse Millar? Or maybe Hillary? Eh, my best guess is Martha... YAY, IM A LOYAL REVIEWER NOW! I think... Update soon! Rae
Me: Lol, love how you included the Feeny call :) Thanks, I appreciate it :D You'll know. Yes you are!!!
Okay, so I will see you guys on February 1st. I hope to read all your reviews when I get back and I'll miss you all!
Here are some of my favorite Cory/Shawn moments:
