This isn't trash enough for my trash blog, so I'm gonna post it here:

I wonder if a story drawing parallels between transitioning into Healing and undergoing HRT could work in some capacity.

I don't fully know how HRT works, so maybe they're too different. I dunno.

Miguel x Reader, No warnings, a little suggestive but that's it, Word Count: 2,535

Swinging on your webs, you hopped from building to building and made sure to to keep an eye out for any more crime during your patrol. You hoped that tonight would be a breeze but unfortunately, the life of a superhero will never rest. You landed by one of the police antennas and heard a call coming through their radios. Tilting your head, you focused on the frequencies to get a better signal. "All units be advised. We've got a call for a robbery in Lower Manhattan. Heading there now, requesting backup." You glanced up at the sky seeing the moon illuminate brightly. "I guess I could help the boys in blue." You shrug and thwip your web shooters, the silk spinning and sticking to another building before jumping off to gain momentum. You hauled yourself up after swinging, diving down between apartments and just barely slipping through a couple fire exits. You thought about who it might be this time. Maybe it was the Shocker again. Oh, he was always so easy to make fun of. No, that wasn't possible: you put him in prison. You just hoped it wasn't another one of Tombstone's men--they were always a little too cocky. Maybe just a couple of randoms trying to make extra cash the wrong way–a boring way to end the night but at least it'd be easy. You swung faster after hearing the sirens of police cars echoing throughout the night of New York. You saw a few police cars behind you and you giggled to yourself, playing a one sided game of who would get there faster. Always the competitive one you were, you stuck your webs onto two poles and pulled back so hard that they bent slightly. Your forearms burned until you let go, slingshotting yourself in the sky and allowing yourself to glide above the city. You wished to take off your mask and feel the breeze properly but you settled for the ripples flapping on your suit. "Robbery, robbery, robbery..." You murmured, swiveling your head around to see where the robbery could've been. You blinked as you spotted the familiar colors of blue and red flashing in the distance. "Robbery!" You grinned.

Zipping through the wind, you landed above what you now see is a jewelry store. You crawl into the shadows, making sure none of the policemen could see you. "Hm. I guess they win this time." You mutter to yourself about your little game. Perching on the ledge, you listened in on their conversation. "Any security footage?" One policewoman asks. "We're checking them now but so far after entering the perimeter, all cameras have been damaged." "Did you see what was stolen?" "A few rings and bracelets. But the owner is more concerned with a diamond necklace. Says it was going to be auctioned off later this weekend." You tilt your head in thought. And they got away? Definitely not some regular citizens. You began to feel a headache creep on you. You couldn't handle another big bad to fight this weekend. You stepped down from the ledge carefully and walked around the top of the building to find a vent. Once you did, you ripped it open and crawled inside, your body sticking to the ceiling. You looked around and saw various cases filled with glittering jewels, ranging in size and colors. You crawled through another room and hopped off the ceiling with a small thud. Looking behind you, you made sure no one had seen you and you began rummaging through the room to find any evidence lying around to catch the perpetrator.

You found yourself in front of the glowing case in the middle. You circled around it, the eyes of your mask squinting at the empty sloth that would've fit a giant diamond necklace inside. The glass was perfectly intact instead of ruthlessly shattered. This was no common thief. No fingerprints, everything was spotless and clean. You took a closer look. "Looking for this, arañita?" You hear a smooth voice behind you. You spin around, shooting your webs to trap the wrist of the stranger behind you to the wall. The familiar tall man you've had a complicated relationship with, Miguel O'Hara a.k.a. Black Cat. His skin tight black suit hugged his built body, white fur fluffed at his forearms and around his shoulders. His suit was opened at his chest, a long slit that gave everyone a nice view of his tanned skin littered with little black and graying hairs. His dark brown eyes were decorated with a thin diamond shaped mask that did little to hide his ‘secret identity’. His dark brown hair was in its usual slick back, gray strands curling in his locks and a pretty black collar around his neck. He tilted his head at you and lifted his other hand to cut your webs off him with an extracted claw. “Eso es como se trata un amigo? I thought your whole thing was being friendly, arañita.” Miguel says light-heartedly, unphased at the way your mask narrowed at him. You noticed that the hand you had webbed up was holding onto a pouch. Miguel slips open the pouch by its strings, lifting out the diamond necklace. He clips it around his neck and it shines in the moonlight that seeps through the ceiling window. He admires his reflection in the cases, his gloved hand caresses the jewels, his nail being gentle with grazing over it. “Isn’t she just a beauty? She’s not my style, personally, but I can appreciate her.” His eyes meet yours and he grins. “I think you would make it look even more beautiful.” You ignore his blatant flirting, your hands itching at your sides, wanting to snatch the pouch from him and return it to the police so the owner could have a good night’s rest–so you could have a good night’s rest. Now knowing the one behind this was Black Cat, your headache had gotten worse and you knew it’d be a long night. Miguel stalks up to you after taking the necklace off and placing it back in his pouch.

“What’s wrong, arañita? Cat got your tongue?” He smirked, his claw grazing under your chin and making you look up at him. You bit down on your tongue. This cat always had a way of pissing you off. “I thought we agreed you’d put this behind you. You’re rich. What more could you possibly want?” You grab his wrist and take his hand off from your chin. “Would you believe me if I said I just wanted your attention?” His lips curl up, showing off his fangs. “No.” “Ouch. I’m hurt. I thought we had something.” His smile doesn't falter. “Give back the jewels, Miguel.” ‘Hmm. No. These could go for a lot of money. Way more than whatever that auction it is they’re doing.”

“Miguel, you promised me you would be good.”

His eyes soften for a split second. The memory of your last encounter months ago where you two had spent the night together in the city up on the Empire State building. Your relationship was a confusing one. There had been nights where you were on opposite sides and other nights where he answered your call for help.

Miguel began to trust you. Despite his tendencies to slip between your fingers, you always spoke to him kindly when he wasn’t pushing your buttons–even then he knew you never harbored any actual hatred for him. So after a long night, he confided in you that this was his new life and it wouldn’t change–he’d always come back to a life of crime, it’s who he was. You believed he was better than that.

That night before he disappeared for months, he pulled up your mask just enough to see your lips and he kissed you, leaving with a promise to do better. But cats were known to do whatever they wanted. “You know I’m not good like you, arañita.” His smile turns melancholy. “But you could be.” You insisted. “Give me the pouch.” “I can’t do that, amor.” 

You huffed through your nose, jaw clenching, and you tried to snatch the bag from his hand as quickly as you could. Miguel was faster, his clawed hand grabbing you and forcing you to bend over the glass display of jewelry with your arm behind your back.

You grunted when your cheek met the hard glass and attempted to worm your way out of his hold. You feel Miguel lean over your body, his warm breath whispering next to your ear.

“I've thought about you like this. Maybe with a little less clothing.” He teases and chuckles when you stiffen. 

“Miguel.” You warn lowly. 

“It's been nice seeing you again, arañita, but I've got to run.” You hear a dull clanking sound along with a small whizz.

You felt rope like strings wrap around your body and arms and suction themselves to the glass he slammed you on, trapping you.

Shit.

You crane your head as much as you could to see Miguel take a step back away from you. Just for shits and giggles, he plucks a pair of earrings from a stand and places it inside his bag before raising his hand up at the ceiling window. 

Miguel gives you a wink and a charming smile and his grappling hook zips out from his wrist, denting itself in the wall. It pulls him up and he pops the window open, successfully escaping without leaving a trace.

You groan and knock your forehead on the cold glass. With your strength, you pop the rope off you, stretching your arm and wrist out.

Police began to enter inside the building, their commotion and their comms going off and getting closer to you.

Collecting the ropes, you webbed yourself out through the same window Miguel used and closed it behind you. You tossed the ropes away and began swinging around, trying to sense any trace of Miguel.

“Dammit, kitty.” You mutter under your breath. You ignored the way your heart pounded as you scanned every nearby corner. The sight of him after so long sent flutters in your stomach. You ignored the lingering hot touch of his fingers around you, the weight of his body towering over yours. His hips that gently bucked up against–

You tumbled on the roof of a brick building. This was not how you wanted your night to go. You let out deep breaths, your arms and legs spread out as you lay on your back. 

After a couple of minutes, you sat up. You ripped your mask off and rubbed the sleep out of your eyes. You felt a turmoil of emotions. 

When Miguel had kissed you that night, it broke your heart. He felt so sure of himself to give you affection but at the cost of his disappearance right after. It hurt but you thought if he could turn his life around for the better, it'd be worth all the heartbreak and what ifs.

You stood up and placed your mask back on your head, your arm raising up to shoot a web when your spider senses alerted you of someone. 

You turn around to see Miguel, half of his body in the shadows.

“I don't have the pouch so don't shoot.” He raises his hands in a mock surrender.

“Didn't you say you needed to run?” Your voice spits and Miguel nods.

“I also said it was nice to see you again.” He walks up to you, his hands gently placing themselves on your hips. You stand tall, not wanting him to know his effect on you. “So forgive me, I'm a little selfish. I wanted to see you one more time.”

“Why are you back?” You mumble. Why are you back in New York?

“I'm sorry, corazón. You know me. It's what I do.”

“So you lied to me.”

Miguel winces. “No. No, I didn't. I tried, believe me.” His hands squeeze your hips. “I tried for you but…it's not for me. This,” He gestures to himself, clad in black spandex and white fur. “This is who I am now. It's how I have to live.”

He cups your cheek, his thumb caressing your mask-covered face. He wonders what you looked like underneath. Were you as beautiful as your body? Your heart? He dreamed so. He knew so.

“I still don't believe that.” You whisper, leaning into his touch, hands slowly going around the back of his neck and he takes it as an invite to bring you closer.

“You're still so naive.” He murmurs.

“You said you liked that about me.” You quipped. Miguel chuckles.

“I did say that.” 

You feel a smile creep up on your face, your heart feeling lighter at the sound of his laugh.

“Hopefully we'll cross paths more often now that I'm back in New York.” Miguel grins. “Te extrañe.”

“I missed you too.” You whisper. With your chest pressed up against his, you could faintly feel the rumble of him purring. Miguel's claws run under your throat, flicking up the fabric of your mask to expose just a bit of your neck as if wanting to lift it off. “But you know I have to turn you in for robbing.” You add.

“Hm. A shame.” He mumbles dismissively. He continues to ride up your mask and you let him. He stops at your nose and leaves it there, eyes focused on the way your lips parted. “Kiss for good luck?” He asks. His eyes glint when you licks your lips subconsciously.

“You’re pushing it, kitty.” You mumble back but your arms tighten around him. Miguel purrs at the pet name.

“Just one kiss.” He insists, leaning down to brush his lips against your mask where your forehead was. You tilt his head further down with your hand at the back of his head and he follows. With your guidance, his lips find yours and your heart skips a beat. Miguel tugs you closer by the waist, pressing your chest and hips together. His hands crawl up your spine while he tilts his head to deepen the kiss. You match his pace with your eyes closed while you feel his soft lump lips caressing yours. You didn’t know how long the kiss lasted–not when his hands roamed your body, squeezing you and devouring as much of your tiny moans as he could. Your hands curled up at the base of his neck while he swiped his tongue across your bottom lip. Gasping, you allowed him access but he pulled away. “I’ll see you next time, arañita.” Miguel whispers against your lips,the fangs of his teeth gently nibble on your top lip before he pulls away. He squeezes your waist, his touch lingering and aching to keep you near but he lets go. He takes a step back from you and jumps back into the night, the sound of his grappling hook zipping through the air faintly. You sigh, trying to slow down your heartbeat with a hand over your chest when suddenly you pause. “Dammit…” You huff and kick a pebble away from you.

Paint Job (Buggy the Clown x F!Reader)

Summary: In which Buggy indulges his two favorite hobbies: doing your makeup and driving you crazy. Pairing: Buggy the Clown x F!Reader Rating: General. Word Count: ~1k. Warnings: Pregnancy. A/N: my birthday was yesterday so i wrote this for myself

Your belly button popped out. He had no idea until you stripped your clothes off for a nap and fell asleep cradled in that dumb pregnancy pillow you use instead of cuddling with him.

He squints at it. It looks funny. Round. Sticks out. Kinda like...

...hmm.

The intrusive thought hits him like a fish jumping out of the water and into a boat.

You'd look so cute and he'd get to show off his artistic talent. Not to mention that everyone would know whose baby is in your belly. Not that there's any doubt, of course, but he has to mark his territory somehow and he suspects that you wouldn't appreciate being peed on.

(The obvious answer of putting some jewelry on those naked ring fingers of yours has occurred to him many times, but that thought is somehow scarier than fatherhood. So he ignores it.)

Grabbing his bag of tricks from the vanity, he tiptoes to the bed. He sets himself down slowly, gently, carefully. The bed squeaks as he eases his weight onto it, but you don't stir.

He works quickly. First some white greasepaint, squeezed onto his wrist and dabbed onto your belly with a makeup sponge. Follow that with a bit of black paint, applied with a careful stroke of the brush. Then pigment sticks for the detail work and outlines...

The baby seems to enjoy it. It occasionally moves in response to his touch. Nothing herky jerky -- just little shifts and nudges. Makes his heart melt. He can't wait to meet the little rugrat.

And now the piece de résistance, a dab of red right on the mound of your navel.

Et voilà. Perfection.

He leans back to marvel at his artistry as he wipes the extra makeup from his hand. In another life, he'd have made a damn good painter. Hell, maybe he should invest in some acrylics and canvas. Start a money laundering scheme.

Buggy notices that your eyes are open. Two little windows into a warm, dark abyss. The same color as falling asleep in a cozy bed on a cold, dark night.

“Having fun?” you ask.

“Tons,” he says coolly. “How was the snooze?”

“Great, ‘til your kid started tap dancing on my bladder.” You lean back on your elbows as you stretch your legs out, splaying your toes out like Richie does after he wakes up from a nap. Your belly rests on your thighs now. Try as you might, you can't see over the top. “What were you doing?”

He hops off the bed and offers you his arm, easing you to your feet. He guides you to his vanity with a hand on your waist. Your gait has gained a wobble and, while he's never seen anything hotter, being on a constantly rocking ship makes him nervous.

Your eyes go wide when you see his Jolly Roger painted across your stomach, your belly button forming the nose. You twist this way and that, your smile growing with each shift.

He rests his head against yours. “So everyone knows just who put you up the pole,” he murmurs.

“As if there's any question with how handsy you are,” you snort. You turn that warm smile to him. “Love it, Bugs.”

He didn't think you'd be upset, not really, but hearing you happy eases his nerves greatly. “I decided to take an impressionist approach,” he says. “You can tell from the brush strokes and my liberal use of white.”

You were right, that night you first spent together: you laugh like a gaggle of News Coos. Clattery, loud, inelegant. It's his third favorite sound in the world. The second is that snort you make when you're trying not to laugh, and the first is... Well, his pursuit of that sound is what led to your current condition.

He pushes the gag a little further. “Made it during my Alabastan Period, where I was influenced by--” You push your lips against his. He keeps talking, just to annoy you. “--traditional geometric patterns of nomadic--”

You grab his cheeks and shove your tongue in his mouth. Once he's runs out of breath, you pull away with a big red splotch across your smile. “Shut up,” you say.

“Never.” He moves behind you. He pops his hands off to lace his fingers underneath your belly as he drapes his arms around your shoulders. "How's that?"

You sigh in relief as the weight is lifted off your organs, your spine, everything. "Fucking hell, thank you," you breathe.

He makes a mental note to thank the old ex-con who told him the trick. Surefire way to make your old lady love you forever, she'd said, grinning at her husband. How else you think I ended up with having six kids with this knucklehead?

The thought of six little humans running around fills him with dread... but at the same time, everyone loves a family act. Matching threads for everyone, him in his best and you all dolled up like a work of art. Suits for the boys and little tutus for the girls.

Six little faces looking up at him in adoration, six little creatures to do his bidding, six little people guaranteed to worship the ground he walks on...

You snap your fingers in front of him. "Hey. Clown."

That's enough to bring him back to earth. He hopes to every god that will listen that it's just one in there. "Just distracted by your beauty," he says.

You give him a dry look. "Liar."

"Alright, ya got me. I was thinking about your tits." Buggy rests his chin in the crook of your neck. “How much longer?”

You reach up to pat his cheek. “Couple months.”

He groans. “But I wanna meet Buggy Junior noooow-wuh,” he whines.

Your smile vanishes. “Over my dead body you name my kid that.”

“Why not? It's a great name. Buggy Balthazar Zebulon Xerxes Mixolydian Macadamia--” You pinch his lips shut with your fingers, but he keeps talking. “--Jeremiah Jubilee--”

You turn and shove your tongue in his mouth again. He shuts up for good this time.

To the "Curious Courtship" Masterpost | To the Mastahpost | Tip Jar

taking what's mine, rafe cameron second part to 'daddy's favourite' pairing: rafe cameron x female reader summary: after leaving him in the library without satisfaction, rafe takes revenge at the midsummers, but goes further than wanted. malia's notes: please, i can't with myself. currently writing so many parts for this one drabble i did because it got so many notes. send me to hell for having rafe 24/7 in my head... even during sex? lol I'm so proud of it, and I'm definitely making this a damn series, cause I'm obsessed lol.

azure material wrapped your body in an extra layer of protection. yet, the long slit on the left side of the bottom long gown ended in the middle of your thighs. revealing enough skin to gain the attention of a suited company who wouldn’t ruin the reputation of your family. after the cameron’s strutted in, heads held high and waving from left to right, you and your parents walked into the venue. a little midsummers ritual since the two most influential man had to be praised like gods.

eyes directed at the choice of outfits, the satin material of your mothers dress and rose’s lady liberty inspired head piece. people whispered to each-other, their grimaces hidden behind the glasses and the truthful opinions drowned by the alcoholic liquid. “you look beautiful, like fucking beautiful.” rafe appeared beside you, hands deeply in the pockets of his suit trousers. instead of feeling grateful for the loving compliment, you snorted.

receiving such nice words from rafe had a double meaning. While most girls with gosh about the appearance of the blonde, and almost backed him to drag them away to the bathroom, you had a better self control than the kooks around. the gazes of multiple, curious people already lingered on the two of you. being part of figure eight meant to either work off the ass to bring home a steady income or laying around in the sun, occupying themselves with talking trash and spreading rumors.

turning the head to face the male who didn’t move a step, your eyes raked over the well-dressed figure. engulfed in a certain light shade of baby blue, the fabric mirrored the cloudless sky on a sunny day. sadly for you, the color matched the ring around his pupils perfectly. simply said, rafe cameron looked extremely attractive in the suit, which rose probably picked out for him after thousands of protests.

bottom lip caught in the tight grasp of your teeth, you could not stop your eyes from taking him in. instead of releasing a sly comment about you being obsessed with him, rafe chuckled and took a step back to allow you a better, overall sight of his appearance. “shit, you really went all out for tonight.” it was a compliment wrapped in amusement that escaped your mouth.

for a moment, you forgot about the possessiveness rafe has shown in the past weeks. after the multiple meeting in the library, and the sharing of loving or rough touches, he almost called you, his. but it was far from what you wanted to be. nothing about the cameron’s seemed right, but you could not figure out the wrongs yet. still, after declining his offer of becoming his girlfriend, he started to up his game in trying to seduce you.

the ideas popped up in his head randomly, and tonight, after seeing how tightly the fabric of your dress wrapped around your curves, he would take it a step further. he had to after listening to the comments of the boys around him. filthy words about your body, your status and their fantasies while nobody knew that half of their dreams were already fulfilled by rafe.

while he disappeared when topper and kelce shouted his name repeatedly, you found your way towards the bar and ordered a strong drink. there was no chance that you would get through this awful event without at least a sip of alcohol. but after the third glass was drowned too quickly and the fourth already stood on the counter, a large hand appeared and grabbed the glass, you paid for.

“woah stop. i paid that, that’s mine.” you wildly gestured through the air with one hand, not glancing around the see the thief. the effort of turning quickly, and the sudden spinning, would cause dizziness. you wouldn’t want to embarrass yourself in front of the residents of figure eight.

a heavy-breathing chest pressed against your back, tightly and not leaving any space between. the hand on the counter retreated, lifting the glass to the dry lips and pouring a sip into the mouth to taste the liquid. “mhm.” a low hum of approval rumbled in his chest, the vibrations traveling straight down your spine.

the warm breath of the male fanned over your exposed neck as he lowered his head. “wouldn’t have taken you for a bourbon woman.” the voice got raspier through the amount of alcohol he drank throughout the evening, yet, it was the most familiar melody you’ve ever heard.

“surprises everywhere, rafe.” you leaned your head back, your loose curls scattering across the pale blue fabric of his suit jacket. this small contact between the two of you was enough to cause a drama if your father would see the interaction. fortunately, he was deeply in a conversation with ward cameron. probably, another business plan or attempting to create a bond between the influential families. hell, the connection already existed before they even found a solution for both their sakes.

“you know, it’s pretty unfair.” rafe muttered against your skin, his chewed-up lips pressing soft but quick kisses around your neck. little moments of affection, but still his teasing manners. “what do you mean?” you furrowed the brows, confusion twisting your gentle features.

“i’ve been standing over there, the entire time. having a good up-and-down talk with my mates when my eyes find you, again. standing at the bar, tapping your heel against the tiles, stretching and moving from left to right.” his words were barely a whispered confession as you felt the gentle touch of his fingers graze down your rips towards your waist.

“and?” the confusion clouded your mind, his explanations of unfairness made no sense to you. letting his hand wander, you wanted to prevent being seen by your father. but escaping rafe’s skilled fingers and precise touches happened to be more difficult. “you moved to the left, and stretched out your leg. the little slit on your lovely dress slipped slightly to the side and revealed those beautiful scarlet red, lace panties underneath.”

pupils grew as he continued to confess what he was able to witness from the other side of the room. as observant as he was, it gave him a clear advantage in most situations. mainly because no one else seemed to notice how much she exposed of her body without realizing it. attempting to pull down the fabric further and cover more of your thigh, rafe acted quicker and swatted your hand away. “don’t think about it, babygirl.”

the thin fabric between his rough fingertips, he hiked the dress further up until a little bit of cherry red lace was seen. “stop, what the hell?” you wiggled yourself out of his comforting hug, and immediately pulled the material down again. “we’re in fucking public, rafe. if my father sees us..”

“let him.” rafe shrugged, taking a step back and letting his hands disappear in the pockets of his suit pants again. “i don’t fucking care anymore.”

“god damn it, rafe. stop being foolish.” you snapped, snatching the bourbon glass out of his hand and stomping towards the house. most guests gathered in the gardens, enjoying heywards food and the last warmth of the sun before the midnight blue hid it.

pushing past the groups of people, you felt the need to sulk in loneliness for a moment. it wasn’t easy to deny rafe a love he desired so badly. after all, he needed one call to pick you up, spend time with you, share a midnight conversation or use his fingers to fuck out your brain. a simple thank you wasn’t enough for what he has done, but you didn’t trust him enough to engulf in a relationship.

too many lies. too much coke. enough problems.

your feet carried you to the dressing rooms down the corridor where the jackets of the guests were stuffed away in wardrobes. running the palm softly across your face, you felt the alcohol in your blood. leaning against the wall beside you, shivers spread across the exposed skin of your shoulder blades. the coldness of the stones a complete difference from the warmth of your figure.

“oh dear, you should take a seat.” rafe’s voice echoed through the empty corridor, ringing in your ears. “are you following me? really?”

“just looking after what’s mine. can’t have any of the other lads touch you with their dirty fingers.” rafe shrugged again, simply stating the thoughts on his mind. once, you were out of sight, the blonde panicked and feared for your safety. not every young adult kook had a plan of being nice, and rafe knew it exactly. „i’m not yours.“

he chuckled, a deep and dark sound erupting from his chest. „that’s where you’re wrong babygirl. you’re mine, and mine only.“ strolling towards you, rafe found his spot in front of your slightly drunk figure, taking in the mesmerizing picture. he couldn’t count how many parties of his you visited, and how many times you declined the alcohol after having one drink. you never accepted substances, you‘ve always somehow been the good girl.

yet, you were about to get shit-faced, while the kooks around, laughed, and danced. rafe placed his hand above your head, mirroring the position from the library a week ago. it’s been a long seven days, without his touch or the indescribable compliments. while you waited for him and the revenge plans he plotted, he never came around until today.

leaning in closer, his warm breath fanned across the top of your nose. disparate kinds of whiskey lingered in the air, he probably had a couple of glasses with topper and kelce. at least the little white powder didn't stuck to the outsides of his nostrils like couple of times before, when he quickly wiped it off with the pad of his thumb. "so," he muttered, dipping his head lower to receive access to your collarbones and side of the throat. featherlight kisses blown against your smooth skin, the effects of his small, genuine gestures already created shivers along your spine. "i'm claiming what's mine."

hands traveled across her figure, carefully bunching up the expensive dress around her waist. he would hate to destroy the material that clung perfectly to your body, hugging your curves tightly. "rafe, what are you doing.." you questioned his actions, the sudden change in kisses and how his teeth dug into your soft flesh underneath.

"told you, claiming what's mine." fleshy fingers pushed the lacey fabric of your panties aside, the rough tips stroking carefully through the lips of your pussy. wetness pooled between your thighs, and rafe greeted the warmth with a smug smirk. "are you insane? anybody could walk in!" you protested, trying to wiggle out of his grip once more but this time, he used much more of his strength to keep you in place. this time, you would not run away from him and his intentions.

"ditching me in the middle of the midsummers? that's one thing. but leaving me with a fucking boner in the library, having to take care of myself after i pushed those beautiful, little whimpers out of you? that's another and I'm taking my reward for good work." without another second of hesitation, two fingers pressed against your entrance. slowly pushing inside, and stretching your walls in preparation. a satisfied moan slipped out of your mouth, followed by a deep groan from rafe.

the sounds you made, whimpers and moans, always made him mad crazy for you. even more, than he has been before. "rafe, stop. if my dad sees -"

"i don't give a fuck about what your dad sees, or what he thinks. you understand that, baby girl? if i have to, i'm going to show him who you truly belong to." the words were punctuated with the thrusts of his long fingers, pushed in deeply and curling to reach the little spot, he knew you loved. your lips were sealed shut, pressed together in a thin line and yet, the moans slipped through like your mouth was widely open. "looks like you've waited for me the entire night."

as quick as his fingers disappeared inside of your pussy and spread your wetness over your clit and lips, they were gone. swirled around, the side of the face pressed against the wall and the dress still bunched around the waist, you couldn't see entirely what he was doing. overstepping the boundaries you set or just wanting to pleasure you in a completely new position because the alcohol twisted his mind.

the scarlet red panties further pulled to the side, the string rested on your left ass cheek. the tip of his tongue darted out, licking over his chewed-up bottom lip at the sight. delicious in any kind of way. awaiting patiently his fingers to be pushed deep inside your pulsating walls again, the rustling of a belt being opened, and hitting the tiles on the floor caused a feeling of fear. “rafe, what do you think your doing?” you stammered together nervously, trying to push yourself off the wall to examine what kind of madness he intended to do. but rafe beat you to it. his weight pressed tightly against you, squeezing your body between the warmth radiating of his tall figure and the shuddering cold of the wall.

your question dissolved when his hard dick pressed against your exposed ass. the bead of pre cum smeared across your smooth skin when he leaned down once more. face nuzzled in your neck and the wild mess of hair, he chuckled. a deep sound, almost dark and filled with pure evilness. “oh my ducking god. rafe, stop it!” you fought against his grip, wiggling your body from left to right. an attempt to escape his plans, but it didn’t work at all.

“keep pressing your fucking ass against my dick. it will only convince me more that i should take what’s mine.” he muttered into the mess off your hair. a hand wandered down your body, across the curve of your back until rafe reached his destination. beads of pre cum spread across your ass, the small reminders glistened in the dim yellow light. a sight, he was utterly pleased about.

“rafe, no. please.” you whined, pleaded with him to stop the madness. everything you instructed him not to do, was about to be broken. a low growl rolled off the tongue when his long fingers wrapped around his painfully hard shaft. crouching down a little as he was towering above you the entire time, you felt his tip graze over your pussy, covering himself in the wetness pooled between your thighs. “just taking what’s mine. as i should have done long ago.”

you heard the chuckle, the devilish sound coming from rafe’s mouth as he pushed the tip in. manicured nails scratched at the wallpaper, your eyelids fluttered close at the sudden sensation. trapped in a haze, between pain and deep pleasure, a strangled moan escaped your mouth. rafe’s narrowed eyes watched how his shaft slowly disappeared in your pussy, welcomed by the warmth and the strong pulsating of your stretched out walls. a feeling, a situation, he thought about in any possible scenario. made out scenes, came up with ideas but the one right now, it was pure spontaneity.

“see, princess. your body ached for me.” his hand wandered across your ass, rough fingertips caressing over the smooth skin before finding a rest at your waist. in this moment, the very gentleness he treated you with vanished under the hooded gaze. your walls clenched around him, needing and wanting more as your body betrayed your mind. “don’t worry baby. i’ll fuck you good.”

underarm laid out across your ass, the left hand on the right waist, rafe slowly withdraw his hips. the reddened tip was the last part of him that stayed in your pussy, until he decided to thrust into you again. rough and deep, from the very first second. “holy shit, you’re so fucking tight, babe. am i your first?” rafe got lost in the feeling. your walls gripping him tightly, screaming for more, and the pleasure-twisted expression on your face. like his addiction started growing further.

teeth dragged along the smooth column of your neck, calloused palms pressed into the curves of your waist. “yes.” you forced yourself to not decline the question that lingered in the air. for any possible person, the answer seemed like a genuine statement, the truth unfolding while roughly examining half of your face. but rafe’s mind worked in another pace, and around the usual. he felt the hammering jolts of your pulse, the intensity of your thudding heart increase and the way, your walls attempted to keep him deeply inside.

“holy shit, rafe.” his name slipped out of your dried mouth like a perfectly sung melody, decorated with a little crack in the end. intrigued by the thought of being seen by a possibly influential kook, his harsh thrusts complimented the moments of an almost-bliss. the chance of being close was denied multiple times by you. “say my name. i wanna hear you scream it, princess.” rafe’s voice a rough mutter, coaxing out the words out of his dried mouth as he particularly focused on how perfectly he fit into your drenched pussy. it was close to a heaven-like moment, just like he predicated to his mates earlier.

the two males who stood at the staircase, waving away the people who tried to trespass while rafe busied himself with your body. a statement he made to topper and kelce before leaving abruptly to hunt after you. tonight, your games were certainly over. forcing you into the first time wouldn’t be a very gentle movement, but you would come around for more, beg and plead to feel rafe inside of you again. the exact days he aimed for.

the thrusts became relentless quickly, after testing the waters and your reactions, rafe certainly dropped the act of gentle and soft. calloused pads dug into the azure material, leaving marks through the thin fabric around your hip bones. the palm of your delicate hands smashed against the wall, frustrated about the situation and close to an orgasm washing over you. hidden in a bliss-filled haze, you still attempted to free yourself before being forced to carry rafe inside of you for the rest of the night.

but in every single step, you decided to take, the determined kook beat you to it. pushing off the wall, ended up in your back painfully arched, and your ass further in his direction. the large palm of his placed over the back of your hand, holding you against the wall and leaving no way to escape. "princess, enjoy it as long as it lasts. you will crave me after."

roughly, muttered promises, he had experience with. times, way before your father decided to move to the island, and create another successful business. they begged him, and the image of you, on your knees for him, pleading for release or at least a touch, it made rafe feral. possessive. greedy for more. "come on, princess. let yourself go a little."

the hand on your waist wandered over your back, and around your left hip to reach between your legs. wetness spread across your pussy, flooding down the insides of your thighs. pleased by what his rough tips felt, rafe chuckled. "so fucking hot." emphasizing his words with the hard press of his pads against your bundle of nerves, a loud gasp mixed with a needy moan escaped your mouth. a sound, you could not prevent any longer as your body completely betrayed your mind.

"good girl." he growled, starting to rub irregular circles over your clit while the pace and strength of the pounding stayed rough. by the way, his breaths became hasty, and with the almost inaudible groans that spilled out, he showed how close he was to painting your walls. "come on, princess. cum for me, squeeze my dick."

as the times before, words worked like a deadly spell on you. the unwanted tingling spread, his tip brushing against the soft spot regularly, and the moans were accompanied by filthy whimpers. you were embarrassed, completely disgraced by what was happening but the feeling was intensely good. walls clenched tightly around him, your orgasm washed over you before gaining a clear thought. rafe and his experience the only thing on your mind left.

"shit, rafe," escaped your mouth, nails scratched on the wallpaper. you spasmed from the intensity of the orgasm, head falling forward as his name was spoken like little, thankful prayers. the exhaustion and the sore feeling settled in rather quickly afterward, the aftermath of his roughness.

squeezed tightly by your pulsating walls, the way, your sweet voice praised him and repeated his name, triggered his orgasm. one, two, deep thrusts were enough, pushing his hips against your ass, the fingers which stroke over your pussy, pressed against the little bundle of nerves again. harshly but not strong enough to hurt you, as he painted your insides with white, hot spurts.

face placed in between your shoulder blades, rafe wanted to stay forever in this place. cuddled up with your body, feeling the warmth radiate from your figure after such an intensive experience. yet, he knew, he could not as the midsummers were still in full swing downstairs. slowly leaning back, he pulled out, and you winced at the loss of contact.

lacey pants hooked underneath one of his fleshy digits, he placed them back between your cheeks without cleaning the mess he made. "walking around the entire night, while I'm dripping down your legs." the male chuckled, crouching down to pick up the baby blue suit pants and pull them back up. closing his belt to keep them in place, his hooded gaze watched how you carefully pulled the expensive fabric of the gown down again, smoothing wrinkles with the delicate palms of your head.

you turned away from the smugness that covered his face, the mischief twisted in his features, and walked towards the staircase. the mess of strands placed over your left shoulder and collarbone, hiding the reminders in a mixture of blue and purple that rafe left along the side of your throat. one glance at them, and your father would instantly find the attacker, and find a reasonable argument to have them disowned by their family. "don't be like that, princess."

the sole of the polished, brown leather shoes boomed against the floor, the sounds coming closer with each step hurried after the leaving woman. "you've had fun to, i heard that."

amusement placed aside, you did not find a second to joke about what has happened. "yeah, great fun, stomping my rules of not being fucked by you, without actually being with you." you hissed over the shoulder, glancing forward instead of backward to the man who followed like a lost puppy.

"well, we can be, if you want." rafe shrugged his shoulders, it was precisely what he wanted after the past midnight meetings. the memories made in the library, or underneath the blanket of golden stars. "i tried to trust you entirely first. what's going on behind the curtains, rafe, that sarah runs away with a pogue, and denies her inheritance and family?"

you stopped the escape from his convincing warmth and turned around once you reached the staircase. one answer, you did not like, you have the greatest way to run away. arms crossed over your chest, rafe's thumb and pointer finger outstretched across his forehead, slowly massaging the temples on each side.

"nothing. she's just being a dumb, little girl. falling in love and shit."

"that's enough of an answer. thank you, i won't be a dumb, little girl then and fall for your tricks further." ashamed by what you have done for the man in front of you, the lies you told your parents about your whereabouts, and the multiple times, you covered for him. all for nothing, or maybe not?

Finally after SEVERAL hours of work, I've finished an example of Tiziri in her 'Lunar form' she can shift into! this form is a temporary form moonlight imps can morph to if they have a decent 'charge' from the sloth ring moon! they gain a large pair of wings, extra set of arms, their imp tail, legs as well as chests get more fluffy, and they have paws. their eyes change as well in this form, losing their crescent moon or star shaped pupils, and gaining bright colored pupils. basically their eyes invert color! Careful not to stay in this form too long, for doing so will drain a moonlight imp of their abilities, and the only way to recharge is the full moon in the sloth ring! <3 if you already have a moonlight imp oc you've made fom the guide, or have purchased from me via a custom, yes! yours can have this form too! Ahhhh!! I love Tiziri so much!!! I wanna squeeze her lil toe beanssss Art (c) mine Tiziri (c) mine Moonlight imp species created by me and echoeartz! helluva boss (c) vivziepop #HelluvaBoss #HelluvaBossOC #helluvabossfanart #helluvabossart #hazbinhotel #hazbinhoteloc #hazbinhotelfanart

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You fixed the glasses that were perched on your nose as you glanced at the man standing in front of you. Your new secretary had just started working for you less than two months ago, yet the damage he had done almost felt like he had been there for years. From coming to work late to having bad posture while sitting, you were getting tired of having to reprimand him all the time. You wished your previous secretary did not quit, but there was really nothing else you could do.

“Park,” you said after clearing your throat, finding the right words to say to him.

“Yes, Boss,” Jay replied in an instant, shifting the weight in his feet as he stood up straight.

Jay calling you ‘boss’ was one of the many things you tolerated about him. At first he did it as a joke, but you never really bothered to correct him and now he was the only one in the whole building that refers to you that way.

“Am I giving you too much work?” You asked, looking away from him and turning your attention to your computer screen.

He shook his head, and when you did not hear a reply you glanced at him. Jay gulped. “No.”

“Am I not giving you enough work?”

Jay paused to think. Before you got impatient, he formulated an answer that sounded more like a question. “No?”

“Then why are you slacking and falling asleep at meetings? Is work boring?” Your eyes scanned your screen and your hand made several clicks on the mouse before you turned to face him again.

“I’m so sorry, Boss, it was one time when I--”

“That’s all,” you said as you cut him off, waving your hand to dismiss him.

Jay pressed his lips together before looking down and turning around to leave your office. You sighed as soon as he closed the door, and you leaned back on your chair to stare at the ceiling. Hiring another new secretary to replace Jay wouldn’t look good on paper, and your staff would definitely ask questions. You did not need anyone asking questions.

---

Punctuality was one of things you emphasized as important whenever there was a new employee that you hired. It took a while for Jay to adjust to your strict policy, but he eventually managed to do so, always arriving before you and always coming to your office in less than two minutes whenever you ask for him.

You also noticed that he had started to dress better—color-coding his outfits and matching the right clothes to the appropriate occasion. Once you started assigning him more personal errands, like getting your laundry and having your suits pressed, he became even more reliable, probably because he felt that he had gained your trust.

After a prolonged online meeting at the office, you came home late, expecting to find your shoes and clothes picked up from the dry cleaners. You had given Jay access to your apartment, and while you did find your outfit in your bedroom, you noticed how your kitchen was a lot cleaner. You even noticed how the trash had been taken out.

Dialing Jay’s number, which was now the first on your speed dial, you leaned on your kitchen counter.

“Boss, is there something I missed?” Jay picked up your call right after the first ring. He was panting, and it sounded like he was out of breath.

“Did you clean my kitchen?” You asked, scanning your kitchen with your eyes.

“I, uh, yes,” Jay answered. You heard rustling from the other side. “I figured I had the extra time.”

“You didn’t have to. I never asked you to do it.”

“I know, but,” Jay paused and you heard him start to walk. “I really need to get better.”

You had no idea what Jay meant and although you were thankful for the kind gesture, you felt like you should be paying him more for the simple act of slightly cleaning your house. It’s not that you hated cleaning, but having someone else do it for you unlocked a new level of gratitude in you.

“Thank you, then,” you said after quite a long pause. “I’ll see you Monday.”

“See you, Boss,” Jay replied cheerfully, and you swore his voice sounded like a song.

---

By the end of every week, you would have Jay come to your office to do a simple evaluation of the week and to go through each completed task and plan new ones for the next week. Jay was standing in front of your desk with an iPad on his hand, his eyebrows furrowed in concentration as he listened to you talk while taking notes.

“Got it,” he said as he jotted down the last of your requests.

“I need another suit pressed,” you stood up from your chair and took out your phone from your pockets. “It’s the crimson--”

“Set? I already took it. It’ll be ready in two days. I can drop it off at your place.”

“Right,” you responded, a bit surprised that he cut you off. “And for the meeting on Monday, I’m going to need slides for the presentation--”

“I went through your notes for the meeting and I already made a PowerPoint slide. I sent it to your email just an hour ago.”

You blinked once and quickly opened your email app on your phone. “Oh, right, it’s there.”

Jay smiled proudly to himself and put his iPad away, standing up straight with his hands behind him. “Is there anything else I can do for you, Boss?”

Though you were wearing heels, Jay still stood taller than you, and he was looking at you in anticipation, as if he was ready to answer anything you had in mind. If you said jump, he would ask you how high.

You shook your head. “That’s all,” you said softly, maintaining a straight face. Jay smiled so wide that you could see the wrinkles in the corner of his eyes. He bowed slightly before he took a couple of steps backwards. He then turned around and walked out of your office, not forgetting to close the door behind him.

He was going to be your most favorite secretary you’ve ever hired, you thought.

► BIOGRAPHY

Henley was born in Los Angeles, CA to Emilia and Alexander Jacobs. The beautiful sight of the baby girl was expected, what took everyone off guard was that Henley was collateral beauty to her mother's passing whilst in childbirth. The trauma enough that it sent the business tycoon running with his new bundle of joy to NYC. The girl knew the basics of her parents' story; Emilia moved to LA with a dream and $20 dollars in her back pocket. She had a face that belonged in the movies, and she was sure she was going to make it happen. Alexander came from a long line of old wealth - the industrialists that paved the way for the new business magnates of today. He saw her sing at an open mic night and he was a sucker. She saw him from the stage and sung to him - the rest was history. It was why he took the loss so hard, turning to alcohol so quickly like his father before him. Meanwhile, little Henley was trying everything to have any sort of connection. When she couldn't, she found herself boarding herself up. To a degree, she blamed herself. It only made sense that he wanted nothing to do with her when she killed mom. Though her father's choice of escape was alcohol, the brunette would easily slip away into fantasy worlds thanks to books when things got hard. She promised herself that no matter how dark life got, she was to be her own beacon of light; if she couldn't do that for herself, then she would be that for others. She was the quiet girl in school that everyone wanted to know, and she hated it. The reasoning being that she knew she had more to offer than her looks, but that was all anyone really saw in her. Even her own father told her to utilize her looks to get ahead. Instead of anger, it only fueled her to prove everyone wrong. She was in honor society, the president of the physics club in high school, took AP courses in art history and government policy. There was only one person who truly saw her, and that was her first love in high school. Though she had friends, none of them were every as close nor as understanding as James. It was pure - they just wanted to know one another and be around one another. Her father actually liked James, so did all her friends. What was most important was that she let her walls down around him; she truly felt free enough to be herself shamelessly. When the first semester of college hit, James claimed he wanted to explore other options and that was the end of what Henley felt was her once in 20 lifetimes. Maybe the fact her father liked him was a red flag. Maybe she did something wrong - didn't love him the way he needed. Either way, her walls came back up and they were stronger than ever. It was that break-up that became the foundation of her inspiration for her first couple EPs. When the second EP came out, Henley didn't expect the attention it got. She also wasn't expecting the overnight sensation she became when her first studio album hit streaming platforms. Now, as she is becoming a budding starlet in the eyes of the world, Henley is cementing her walls in place and attempting to navigate this chaos of the entertainment industry; where no one cares who you are, but cares who you know and the number of followers you attain.

► PERSONALITY

Henley is bright and sunny, but facades as a black cat. She is hellbent on keeping people at an arm's distance, seeing that she opened herself up fully only to get hurt. Her new motto is to leave before getting left. It's funny though, because she does have a big heart and she's prone to loving hard once a crush is formulated. She's a supportive and loyal friend once you have her in your court. Henley is prone to boredom and goes through these bursts of needing to go out, or needing to stay in - there's no in between. Henley knows she's sought after, so she likes to make people jump through hoops only to then walk away and throw their number away. She's into literature, art history and poetry. She actually writes poetry, herself, and her favorite thing to do is get lost in an art museum. Most don't know this about her, but Henley likes to game. She utilizes gaming to alleviate anxiety. She is just a huge ball of sunshine squished into a protective prison she built for herself, okay?

► PLOTS

The Best Friend: This person was most likely there when the James situation went down and is Henley's shoulder to cry on as well as her go-to friend when she needs to get out of the house. They've been friends since middle school, possibly before! There's so many ways to play them - the best friend could be tired of Henley's self-recklessness or they could be the enabler. - OPEN

Childhood Friends: Same as above, these people were there during the James scenario. They could meet at any point in their growing up - but these people would be close to Henley and they're almost joined at the hip. - OPEN (x3)

The PR Friend: Someone in the music industry who is utilizing Henley for clout. Henley wouldn't be aware of this, or maybe she is and is just stringing this person along - but I think it would be interesting to have a fake friend who Henley thinks is genuine. - OPEN

Ride or Die: Was a hook-up in the process but they wound up getting high and just talking all night. This is someone that Henley could sit in absolute silence with and be content, or when she's flying off the handlebars, this person can bring her back. Smoke sessions, deep conversations in the AMs. - OPEN

But, Do I Suck?: The music testers. This person is someone Henley runs her music by before putting it out into the world. They could be her genuine friends in the music industry, or maybe they went to NYU together and they met that way. - OPEN (x2)

Once You Have Me, Will You Want Me Still?: Blind date that turned into a hookup and Henley left before they woke up because she got scared. Ya know, she just doesn't want history to repeat itself. - OPEN

In this comprehensive guide, we'll delve into the fascinating realm of tinsel hair, exploring everything from its origins and installation methods to where you can buy the finest strands.

Unveiling the Magic of Hair Tinsel

Hair Tinsel Defined

Hair tinsel refers to thin, metallic strands delicately woven into your hair, creating a mesmerizing effect reminiscent of fairy lights. Often available in various colors, these strands bring a touch of whimsy and sparkle to your locks. The trend has gained popularity not only for its aesthetic appeal but also for its versatility in styling.

The Variety of Tinsel Strands

When exploring the world of hair tinsel, you'll encounter a spectrum of options. From the classic silver and gold strands to vibrant hues like red tinsel, there's a shade for every personality. For those seeking a subtler touch, thin tinsel strands offer a delicate shimmer, while others may opt for bold and glittery options.

How to Rock Hair Tinsel

One of the appealing aspects of hair tinsel is its installation versatility. Whether you prefer a DIY approach or a salon experience, there are several methods to choose from.

Knotted Strand Method: This is a popular DIY technique where the tinsel is tangled onto individual hair strands. It's a simple yet effective way to achieve a dazzling look without professional assistance.

Nanorings: Nanorings offer a secure attachment method for those looking for a more semi-permanent solution. This involves small rings clamping the tinsel onto your hair, ensuring longevity and stability.

Tape: Tape-in extensions have been a staple in the beauty industry, and the same principle applies to hair tinsel. This method provides a seamless and natural appearance while allowing for easy removal.

Longevity and Maintenance

Wondering how long you can enjoy the enchanting allure of tinsel in your hair? Fear not; these glittering strands can last up to six weeks, making them ideal for special occasions or a prolonged style transformation. The best part? You can wash and style your hair as usual, using heated tools, without compromising the integrity of the tinsel.

The Ultimate Guide to Selecting the Perfect Engagement Ring Set

Engagement Ring Set

When it comes to choosing the perfect engagement ring set, there are several factors to consider. From the style and design to the quality of the diamonds or gemstones, every detail plays a crucial role in finding the ideal ring that symbolizes your love and commitment. In this comprehensive guide, we will explore the key aspects of selecting the perfect engagement ring set, ensuring that you make an informed decision that will last a lifetime.

Understanding the Different Styles

One of the first steps in choosing an engagement ring set is understanding the different styles available. From classic solitaire rings to vintage-inspired designs, there is a wide range of options to suit every individual's taste. The solitaire style, featuring a single diamond or gemstone, is timeless and elegant, while halo rings add extra sparkle by surrounding the center stone with a halo of smaller diamonds. Other popular styles include three-stone rings, pave bands, and vintage-inspired designs.

When considering the style, it is important to think about the recipient's personal preferences and lifestyle. For example, if they have an active lifestyle, a low-profile setting may be more practical. On the other hand, if they prefer a glamorous and eye-catching look, a halo or three-stone ring might be the perfect choice.

Choosing the Right Metal

The metal of the engagement ring set is another important consideration. The most common options are platinum, white gold, yellow gold, and rose gold. Each metal has its own unique characteristics and appearance. Platinum is known for its durability and hypoallergenic properties, making it an excellent choice for those with sensitive skin. White gold offers a similar look to platinum but at a more affordable price point. Yellow gold has a classic and traditional appeal, while rose gold has gained popularity for its romantic and feminine look.

When selecting the metal, it is essential to consider the recipient's skin tone and personal style. Some metals may complement certain skin tones better than others, so it's worth exploring different options to find the perfect match.

Understanding the 4Cs of Diamonds

For those opting for a diamond engagement ring set, understanding the 4Cs is crucial. The 4Cs refer to the diamond's cut, color, clarity, and carat weight. These factors determine the overall quality and value of the diamond.

The cut of the diamond refers to how well it has been shaped and faceted. A well-cut diamond reflects light beautifully, creating maximum brilliance and sparkle. The color of the diamond ranges from colorless to light yellow or brown. The less color a diamond has, the higher its value. Clarity refers to the presence of any internal or external flaws, known as inclusions and blemishes. The fewer the flaws, the higher the clarity grade. Carat weight, on the other hand, refers to the size of the diamond.

It is important to strike a balance between the 4Cs based on personal preferences and budget. For example, if size is a priority, one might opt for a slightly lower color or clarity grade to accommodate a larger carat weight.

Customization and Personalization

One of the most exciting aspects of selecting an engagement ring set is the opportunity for customization and personalization. Many jewelers offer the option to customize the ring by choosing the metal, diamond or gemstone, and even adding engravings or unique details. This allows you to create a one-of-a-kind ring that truly reflects your love story.

When customizing the ring, it is important to communicate your preferences clearly with the jeweler. Provide them with any specific details or ideas you have in mind, and they will guide you through the process to bring your vision to life.

Remember, selecting the perfect engagement ring set is a personal journey that should be enjoyed. Take your time, do thorough research, and consider the preferences and lifestyle of the recipient. By following this ultimate guide, you will be well-equipped to make an informed decision that will bring joy and happiness for years to come.

Round Diamond

The timeless round diamond is the most popular choice for engagement rings and has been a classic style for decades. This cut boasts exceptional brilliance and fire, making it the perfect symbol of everlasting love. Round diamonds are versatile in nature, working well with various settings such as solitaire, halo or pavé. The simplicity of a round diamond can be enhanced through different band styles like rose gold or platinum. Additionally, this shape flatters all finger types due to its circular appearance. Many jewelers offer customization options that allow you to personalize your ring further by adding smaller diamonds around the center stone for added sparkle. It's no surprise that round diamonds remain an all-time favorite among brides-to-be and continue to reign supreme as one of the top engagement ring styles year after year.

Oval Diamond

The oval diamond engagement ring is a timeless classic that has become increasingly popular in recent years. This elongated shape flatters the finger and provides a unique twist on the traditional round diamond. Oval diamonds are known for their brilliance, fire, and sparkle which makes them an excellent choice for an engagement ring. The symmetry of this shape creates a stunning effect when it reflects light, capturing attention from every angle. When choosing an oval diamond engagement ring, consider its cut quality as well as its carat weight. A high-quality cut will ensure that your stone sparkles to maximum potential while maintaining symmetry. If you're looking for something with vintage appeal or want to make a bold statement with your jewelry, then consider pairing an oval-shaped diamond with accent stones such as small round diamonds or sapphires around the band. If you're looking for something romantic yet modern and elegant at the same time – look no further than the beautiful oval shaped diamond engagement rings!

Princess Cut Diamond

The Princess Cut diamond is a popular choice for engagement rings because of its unique and modern look. This cut features pointed corners and a square or rectangular shape, creating a beautiful geometric design that stands out from traditional round diamonds. One of the benefits of the Princess Cut is its versatility. It can be set in solitaire style for a classic look or surrounded by smaller diamonds in a halo setting to add extra sparkle. The sharp edges also make it perfect for pairing with other gemstones like sapphires or emeralds. Another advantage of this cut is that it tends to hide imperfections well. Because of its faceting pattern, any flaws or inclusions are less noticeable than they would be on other cuts. When shopping for an engagement ring with a Princess Cut diamond, consider the 4 Cs: carat weight, clarity, color, and cut grade. A higher quality diamond may cost more but will provide better brilliance and overall aesthetic appeal. If you're looking for a modern yet timeless engagement ring option, the Princess Cut diamond is definitely worth considering!

Asscher Cut Diamond

The Asscher cut diamond is a popular choice for those who want a vintage-inspired engagement ring. This shape of the diamond features step-like facets, which creates a unique and eye-catching appearance. This cut was first developed in 1902 by the Asscher Brothers of Amsterdam and gained popularity during the Art Deco period. It has since become an iconic diamond shape known for its elegance and sophistication. Asscher cut diamonds are often set in simple solitaire settings to showcase their beauty, but they can also be paired with side stones or halos to add extra sparkle. They work particularly well with geometric shapes such as baguettes or trapezoids. One thing to note about Asscher cut diamonds is that they tend to highlight any flaws or imperfections in the stone due to their step-cut faceting style. Therefore it's important to choose a high-quality diamond with excellent clarity when selecting an Asscher cut engagement ring. If you're looking for an engagement ring that exudes timeless elegance and glamour, then consider choosing an Asscher cut diamond as your center stone.

Customizable Ring

One of the most special things about an engagement ring is that it represents a unique and personal love story between two people. That's why customizable rings have become increasingly popular in recent years. A customizable engagement ring allows you to add your own personal touch to the design, making it truly one-of-a-kind. Whether you want to incorporate a sentimental gemstone, engrave a meaningful message or customize the band with a specific metal type, there are endless possibilities for creating a customized masterpiece. Customizable rings also allow for more flexibility when it comes to budgeting. By choosing different metals or stones, you can create an affordable option without sacrificing on style or quality. The process of designing your own custom engagement ring can be incredibly rewarding as well. From selecting each element of the design to seeing your vision come to life through sketches and renderings - every step feels like an intimate part of your journey together. If you're looking for an engagement ring that reflects your unique style and personality - consider going with a customizable option!

Bezel Set Diamond

Bezel set diamond engagement rings are becoming increasingly popular among women. This style features a diamond that is encased in a metal rim, which provides extra protection and security for the stone. The bezel setting also gives the ring a sleek and modern look. One of the biggest advantages of a bezel set diamond ring is its durability. The metal rim protects the edges of the stone from chipping or breaking, making it an excellent choice for women who lead active lifestyles or work with their hands. Another benefit of this style is its versatility. Bezel settings can be customized to fit any size and shape of diamond, allowing you to choose your perfect center stone while still having the added security and protection of this unique setting. In terms of design, bezel set diamonds can come in various styles ranging from minimalist to more ornate designs depending on your preference. Some couples opt for engraved bands while others prefer simple ones without any additional embellishments. If you're looking for an engagement ring that combines both functionality and fashion-forward design elements, then consider a bezel set diamond ring as an option that offers both benefits.

Frame Set Diamond

Frame set diamond engagement rings are a popular option for those who want to add extra sparkle and shine to their ring. This style features smaller diamonds that surround the center stone, creating a frame-like effect. The additional diamonds enhance the brilliance of the center stone, making it appear larger than it actually is. The frame setting can come in different shapes such as round or square, and can be made with various metals such as platinum or gold. Some even feature intricate designs within the frames themselves, adding an extra layer of detail and beauty. One benefit of this style is that it allows for customization. The size and shape of both the center stone and surrounding stones can be altered to fit personal preferences. Additionally, because there are multiple stones involved in this design, it provides added security against losing any individual diamond. If you're looking for a unique take on traditional solitaire engagement rings that adds more bling while still remaining classic and timeless, then consider opting for a frame set diamond engagement ring!

Conflict Free Diamond

Conflict-free diamonds are becoming increasingly popular in the world of engagement rings. A conflict-free diamond means that it has been ethically sourced, meaning there was no human or environmental harm during its extraction and production process. These types of diamonds ensure that the people who mine them receive fair wages and work under safe conditions. They also protect against funding armed conflicts where rough diamonds are traded for weapons. When you purchase a conflict-free diamond, you not only support ethical practices but also make a positive impact on communities around the world.

Many jewelers now offer these types of stones as part of their collections, making it easier than ever to find your dream ring without compromising your values. Investing in an ethical engagement ring is not only good for your soul but also ensures that the love between you and your partner is built on strong foundations – those based on honesty and integrity.

Sapphire & diamond ring

One of the most unique and stunning engagement ring styles for women in 2023 is the sapphire and diamond ring. These rings are perfect for those looking for a pop of color in their engagement ring, while still maintaining a classic look. Sapphires come in a range of colors, from deep blues to pretty pinks. They're also highly durable, making them ideal for everyday wear. Pairing them with diamonds adds an extra layer of elegance and sparkle. When it comes to choosing a sapphire and diamond ring, there are many options to consider. Some popular designs feature one large center sapphire surrounded by smaller diamonds or vice versa. Others opt for alternating rows of sapphires and diamonds or incorporating both stones into intricate patterns on the band itself. With so many design possibilities available, there's sure to be a style that perfectly suits every taste. Not only do sapphire and diamond rings offer beauty and durability, but they can also hold special meaning depending on the color chosen. For example, blue sapphires symbolize loyalty while pink ones represent love and compassion. If you're looking for an engagement ring that stands out from the crowd while remaining timeless in style, then consider a stunning sapphire and diamond combination!

➵ what letter (chapter 18) ( + written part)

! written part (1.4k)

The house Karina lives in was big, which you expected since she lives with five boys. You never questioned why, and it wasn’t something that concerned you. Your only hope was not to interact much with the boys, and you specifically didn’t want to see Sunghoon’s face.

Ever since that tweet from Heejin, you couldn’t help but feel a slight letdown. He had told you he was ditching you for a meeting and then somehow ended up in a cafe sleeping with Heejin playing with his hair. Is it a bitter feeling? Yes, perhaps it is. But you need to get it off your mind and focus on the sole reason you and Sunghoon are talking again; the project. 

When you ring the bell, you expect an immediate buzz to let you inside, considering how excited Karina was when she invited you over. She also promised you that she would precisely be the one to let you in, probably knowing a little about your relationship with the boys.

So imagine your surprise when the voice coming out of the buzzer isn’t Karina’s but a male’s. It’s impossible not to recognize the voice of the person you grew up with. The door opens, and you’re face to face with Jay, who, with his wet hair and towel around his neck, looks like he just got out of the shower. You stare at him in a daze. 

“Are you going to come in?” He asks you gruffly. You blink several times and finally snap back to reality, “Oh, yes, sorry.” You step inside the house and stare at Jay as he closes the door behind you. He looks so different yet similar at the same time. Is that possible? His hair, which was blonde back in high school, was now back to its original color. He looks like he gained quite the good amount of muscle and grew into his features. He looks taller and has a much more serious aura around him.

Altough, maybe that was because of you right now. “I came here for Karina, is she–” 

“Yeah, she told me. She had to take an extra shift, so she’ll be a little late.” He cuts you off, walking towards the kitchen, not waiting for you. “If she’s going to be late, I can leave and come back later.” You follow him and clutch your handbag a bit tighter. He’s acting a bit hostile. “Told her that. But she kindly asks you to stay here and wait for her.” He hands you a glass of water he just poured. You accept it with a silent ‘thank you’ and continue with your awkwards standing.

You don’t move one inch while Jay passes you for the living room. You turn around, and for the first time since you stepped inside, you take in the interior of the house. It definitely looks expensive, but you have a feeling that it Jay who probably owned this place before the rest moved in considering his parents. 

“Seriously? Stop standing around like that. Just take a seat anywhere you want, the furnitures don’t bite.” You hear Jay sigh from his seat. You’re not sure if you should take offense at his tone are chuckle at his joke, which, by the way, was probably not said with genuine feelings. You bite the remark at the tip of your tongue and silently make your way to the single seat beside Jay while keeping a safe distance away from him. 

“Do you want to–”

“How’ve you–” 

You both stare at each other, now more awkward than ever. “Sorry, go ahead.” He let’s you speak first. “No, it’s fine! I just wanted to ask how life has been in general.” You try to smile to ease the obvious tension. Jay stares into your eyes with an indescribable look and leans back with his hands loose on his thighs. “There isn’t anything interesting going on. Same old stuff.” He shruggs. 

“What major are you?” You try to continue the conversation.

“Business. Taking over the family business.” You don’t know if you were hallucinating but you sensed some stern emotions behind that sentence. 

“I thought you were opposed to that. Do you still sing?” Jay always had one of the most lovely voices you’ve ever heard. You remember how he used to sing at the bonfires you all used to go at. A fool’s wish to miss those moments.

“That was back then. Time changes people you know? Not that you were around or anything.” He says with a final look at your face. That concluded it. One would think a person would grow out of there grudge after three years, but it seems that some people would like to stay bitter. You exaggeratedly sigh out of annoyance and stand up to get yourself another glass of water. “Alright, fine, act as you please.” You whisper as you leave him behind.

When you enter the kitchen you look around for the right cupboard, perhaps a bit aggressively though. You can’t help but be upset at the way Jay is acting with you. You know he’s Sunghoon’s friend, but he was your friend before he was his. The fact that he blindly took Sunghoon’s side and left you behind without letting you even talk with him was a pain close to heartbreak.

The funny thing is, you’re all fine with Sunghoon right now while he acts like a bitch towards you. Well, two could play the role. If he wants to be all bitter for whatever his reason is, you can push aside your kindness and act bitter back. Not like it was hard.

As you try to reach for a cup, finally founding the right place, you curse the gods for the lack of height they have given you. You weren’t short per say, you just weren;t long enough to reach that cupboard. Why was it so high up anyways? Sighing in annoyance, you’re about to give up when you feel a presence behind you. A hand goes over your head and takes a cup before closing the door. “You already had a glass at the table, but here you go.” Jay’s voice is a whisper and you can feel his breath in your ear. He was too close to you. You turn around in hopes of pushing him away but you are faced with his chest and the glass he’s holding while he looks down at you, again, with this indescribable look in his eyes. 

“Thank you.” You whisper as you take the glass from his hands, still in the same position. He’s still staring at you and you somehow can’t bring yourself to push him away. He raises his hand to push a strand of hair behind your ear, “I never should’ve written that letter.” He says it so quick and breathy that you barely catch it, but it has you freezing in your spot forgetting about his hand still behind your ear. 

Seems like both of you were engrossed with whatever was going on in that moment that it took you both off guard when someone deliberately coughs in front of you. Both you and Jay turn your heads around to see Karina staring at you with a worried gaze, and Sunghoon with pursed lips and a hard look. “Are we interrupting something?” Sunghoon’s voice snaps you back to reality and you push away Jay while looking at Karina with wide eyes, hoping she’ll sense your panic. 

“I was just giving her a cup. I’ll leave you guys be.” Without another word Jay leaves the room with all three of you staring at him. You turn to look at Sunghoon to see him still staring at where Jay left. You hold yourself from explaining yourself guessing how you and Jay must’ve looked. You don’t need to explain anything to him, but some part of you still feels like you owe him one. 

“Well, now that I’m here, let’s go Y/n!” Karina starts dragging you away from the tense atmosphere and you thank your luck stars for her smart brain. Just as you both go out the door, you catch the glimpse of Sunghoon silently looking at you. 

Karina’s closing the door by the time you notice the heavy look in his eyes. You’re gone with too many questions stuck in your throat.

a/n: hehe long update <3 but so sorry for not updating on time and being late these last few days☹️☹️ anyways enjoy :D
