❛ — YOU KNOW WE'LL HAVE TO tackle the ceiling at some point , right ? ❜ while her tone is playful , as if trying to pester him with the mention of what was she thought would be the most annoying part of setting up the nursery , there's also a slight strain to her words . she's exhausted , and it shouldn't come as a surprise ; was it even okay for angel to be putting in work like this ?
either way , she wanted to be a part of the process . not just so the twins would know their mother also had a hand in their little room , but because it'd be unfair to leave it all to james . he already did more than enough for her as is . ❛ i think we should get those glow in the dark stars , or maybe a night sky projector ... those are really beautiful . ❜ leaning back on the big , comfortable rocking chair in the corner of the room , she allowed herself to take a deep breath . it didn't take long for adora , who'd been supervising the work , to come sit by her owner's feet .
❛ speaking of night time , what time do you think they'll be born ? ❜ a tiny smirk dances on her lips , gaze lifting towards james . ❛ i hope they both like to shower , unlike a certain someone ... ❜ a giggle . ❛ but that's for the future . nothing but cozy little baths for now ! ❜

for the qeme , @clownpulet
as far as ellie’s work days go , this one has been acceptably bland. nothing’s happened , no awful customers or bad tippers — and yet the shadow of the other day looms above them. it’s not even particularly bad — they’ve dealt with worse , in their line of work. it must have just been a perfect storm of shit on shit to leave her so shaken.
it’s late when she stumbles outside , makeup smudged under her eyes , overlarge sweatpants and hoodie swallowing her up , bag of outfits slung on her shoulder. they mean to walk home , head tucked down and pepper spray in hand when a familiar face stops them in their tracks. they blink , taken aback. blink again. let their face scrunch up into unabashed confusion.
“ hi ? ” she says , making no move towards dallas. “ y’know you get a better show inside, right ? ”
❝ I’VE HEARD AS MUCH , ❞ there’s a chuckle that falls from his lips , more so out of politeness than anything else . it wasn’t uncommon for dally to show up at the strip club ; if anything , it was one of the few places in town where he didn’t quite hate the company . on the contrary , he felt protective of them , as if they were friends or even family to the guy . perhaps it was for that very reason that upon receiving a specific request , strange as it was , he didn’t hesitate to show up .
reaching inside his pocket , he takes out a cigarette & his zippo lighter . ❝ i got a call from a certain someone , asking me to check in on you . red hair , the personification of the word ‘ emotional ’ ... ring any bells ? ❞ a tiny smirk dances on the corners of his lips , as he can’t hide the fact that angel still has his number after so many years is rather surprising , if not heartwarming . nevertheless , he wasn’t doing this for angel ; this was for ellie , and the fact that dally wouldn’t forgive himself if something happened to her , especially if he could’ve prevented it .
standing from his spot against the club’s wall , he nodded towards his car , parked a few feet away from them . ❝ you okay to go ? we can grab some food on the way , if you’d like . i know dealing with a bunch of assholes is enough to drain a person’s energy . ❞

it hadn’t been long enough since lux left angel’s place in order to allow her cousin to have a private moment with the guy who was causing her sorrow right now. lux cared for angel so much, that she was feeling equally as anxious as her for this talk. she wished the hours flew by faster so she could get news soon about how did it all go. so she decided to distract herself in the meantime by exploring around town. the only times she’s been here before, she had spent all her time with angel by her side… so this was a first for her just wandering around. lux didn’t know this town well at all, but she loved learning about places around the world… no wonder why touring was one of her favorite things. after making a stop for her go to frappucino, she sat down on the first bench she found on her way. before letting out a sign, she turned to the person closest to her. hoping they’d be a local, or else.. there was no use on what she was about to ask. “uh, excuse me… what can one do around here for fun? i’m looking for some good solo activities”
THE HOLIDAY SEASON HAD ALWAYS BEEN cathy’s favorite time of the year , sharing first place with halloween . there was something inexplicably cozy about the way the entire town seemed to come together for this specific period of time , despite how painfully short it was . in addition to that , the holiday season also meant special holiday drinks & treats for her to savor , much to her sweet tooth’s content ! sitting on a bench next to one of her favorite little cafés , the girl watched as the people passed her by , going about their day only to leave her wondering about them for a few seconds or so . she’d always been a people - watcher , partially due to her upbringing & partially because it was fun to create little narratives in her head , see where they would fit and most importantly , if they looked like the kind of person who’d enjoy her singing . unlike other days though , someone struck up conversation with her , taking the spot beside cathy & causing her to look at the stranger . ❝ hm ? ❞ she hummed , bringing the iced sugar cookie almond latte to her lips . ❝ well , there’s only so much fun a person can have on their town , ❞ she would know . ❝ it depends ; what kind of stuff do you like to do for fun ? i don’t wanna recommend something completely out of the question , that’d be a bit embarrassing . ❞

when james woke up with a pounding headache over his drinking (and smoking) choices from last night: he was really unsure angel really wanted to see him today, or if it had been just a drunken thing she didn’t really mean. it hadn’t been the smartest move: to get fucked up by himself in his room. well, poor scar (as usual) was the one who had to deal with him and his sad playlist on full volume last night, and it had been ages since he did such thing. probably the last time that he pulled this self destructive behavior, had been during the first few weeks without his father: when he desperately needed anything that could numb the pain for a little while. james hadn’t felt this sad over a thing ever since. he spent a great part of his morning rereading the drunk texts he sent angel last night… he didn’t even mean to text her in the first place, and he felt so embarrassed over the whole thing. it felt like another wrong move. if only his stupid ass had stayed away from his phone last night. his sober self was terrified of asking if she still wanted to see him, in fears the answer would be a negative one… so when she said yes, it really caught him off guard.
and now here he was, standing outside her door. he had never felt this anxious before while on his way to her place. james truly didn’t know what to expect of today’s talk, and the hungover wasn’t helping him with the shitty feeling. he felt his heart leave his chest when he rang her door, and then it skipped a beat when she showed up on the other side. as beautiful as ever. but she also was… keeping her distance. it felt like those sober texts where he talked about wanting to kiss her were a mistake too, as that seemed to be the least thing she wanted right now. a painful reminder of his reality: he felt his heart weighing again. in his daydreams about the moment he saw her again… he’d grab her by the waist and meet her lips to show her how much he had missed her. but now that the moment was finally happening: he was just awkwardly standing there. he felt so stupid right now. “hey...”, he softly said, a timid smile as he followed her inside. angel managed to cause a chuckle to escape his lips with her teasing. “of course… you’re so special. i had to”, he joked lightly, though he did mean it when he called her special. she truly was, no one would ever compare to her. when james sat down on the couch, he was suddenly greeted by adora. “or maybe she only likes me when i shower”, another small joke, matched by a light chuckle. “is that so ma’am?”, he cooed at adora as he petted her… which was helping him relax a little. miss adora to the rescue. “s-so… what did you want to talk about?”, he finally turned to angel again, nervously awaiting for an answer.
❝ AS MUCH AS I APPRECIATE the gesture , i think there are tons of others who would also love to see you looking squeaky clean . ❞ the idea brings a giggle out of her , & she fings herself happy to see that the two of them can still joke like this despite the situation . it was a reminder that regardless of what happens next , the two of them will be okay . it’s comforting , reassuring , allowing her to rest assured that he won’t leave --- at least not entirely . ❝ oh , i hate to say it but you might be right . this lady is very demanding , you see . ❞ a smile graces her lips as she watches adora searching for a cozy spot on james’ lap , purring gently as she analyzes every bit of space . it comforted angel to see her cat attempt to comfort the man , probably having been able to tell just how nervous he was --- or perhaps she was only trying to assert dominance . after all , adora did have a long list of suitors , human & animal alike .
turning her body towards his as the pair sits on the ouch , the redhead took a deep breath when he asked what she wanted to talk about . there was so much , yet she knew she would have to simplify it for both their sakes . this long overdue conversation was going to be hard enough as is , & even harder seeing as she had to look at him the whole time . it was important that angel did . ❝ i want to talk about us . i ... i want to know what i am to you , james . & please don’t say ‘ best friend ’ . ❞ a weak chuckle escapes her , matching the saddened smile on angel’s rosy lips . ❝ i-- i’m honored that you think of me like that , but ... but friends don’t do the things we do , jamie . some things maybe but not all of them . ❞ and angel knew he understood what she meant . she hated to have to bring this up , to feel as though she was pressuring him into doing or thinking about something he didn’t want to or worse , wasn’t ready to . the redhead knew how much james had been through the past year , even longer , & she’d been with him every step of the way . still ... this conversation needed to happen now or never . she deserved this . ❝ i don’t want you to think you owe me anything or-- or that i’ll leave you because i won’t , i would never ! ❞ it wasn’t his fault that her feelings & emotions were so strong , angel knew she needed to keep herself in check even if just a little bit . ❝ i need to know how you feel about me , so that i know how much is okay for me to feel towards you . i-- ❞ words faill her the moment her baby blue eyes find his lips , bringing the same old rosy tint to her cheeks . i still can't stop thinking about kissing you . did he really mean that ? she mentally curses herself for thinking about the texts at a moment like this , for the way her heart dares to beat just a little bit faster for a moment . she shouldn’t be holding her breath . ❝ i - i need you to help me out here , jamie ... ❞

lux was well aware that angel was one to bottle things up, so unless something really was bothering her… she wouldn’t dare to speak about it. which is why as soon as she got her texts, lux knew it was something serious enough for her cousin, and she didn’t even hesitate to drop everything to comfort her. lux’s relationship with her own blood sister had never been good, in fact… she hadn’t spoken to her in years. so angel had always felt like the (little) sister lux never had. there isn’t a thing lux wouldn’t do for her, or her loved ones. angel was the only member of her family that lux kept in contact with. the redhead was a blessing in her life, so the least she could do was be there for her when she asked. missing two dates from the tour wasn’t important enough, all that mattered right now was making sure angel was okay. thankfully she was in a city less than an hour away, so fast enough: she was knocking on her cousin’s door. as soon as the other answered, lux immediately went in to give her the biggest, warmest hug. god, she had missed her. “i’m here now, i’m here”, she reassured her lovingly, holding her tighter. “you didn’t do anything stupid while i was on my way, did you?”, she joked lightly, referencing her last texts to angel, an attempt to lighten the mood a little and make her cousin smile.
❝ LUXIE-- ❞ THE REDHEAD CAN HARDLY COMPLETE her thought process , quickly finding herself in her cousin’s comforting embrace . it had been so long since the two last saw each other & yet , it this didn’t feel awkward . quite the opposite , angel felt comforted ; cared for . safe . ❝ you know i always do the most stupidest of things , ❞ spoken into the hug , a saddened laugh escaping her lips . she hated that the blonde had to see her like this --- all broken up into tiny pieces , alcohol coating her breath . at lux’s question , she could only chuckle , freckled cheeks blushing deeper out of embarrassment . ❝ no , i - i don’t think so but ... he-- he texted me . ❞ a confession that sends butterflies flying around her stomach , warmth within her heart . if angel had been any sober , she would have felt tremendously embarrassed by her own reaction , by how the mere thought of james made her feel all warm / fuzzy on the inside even at a time like this , under these circumstances . ❝ you-- you remember james , don’t you ? tall , gentle , incredibly handsome , has the cutest dog in the whole world ? he said he misses me and i-- ❞ a pause , simply because she feels her blue eyes start to water . ❝ i love him so much , lux ... i-- i want to see him . i want to see him , kiss him , tell him i love him but i’m so sad . ❞

꒰ # @ angel’s place . ꒱ ✧ @idlewcrships .
DESPITE THE TERRIBLE ACHE that pounded in her head , angel thought she’d been dealing with the hangover pretty well . decently at the very least . it wasn’t the first time she’d gotten drunk , but it was the first in many , many years --- and it was the one that left her feeling the worst . not for herself , but for lux ; she would never be able to repay her cousin’s great kindness , & a part of her felt like she didn’t even deserve it in the first place . but before the thoughts started to get to her , she heard the bell ring , prompting the redhead to stand from her comfortable spot on the couch and rapidly walk to the door .
as she opened the door , angel’s baby blue gaze quickly found the face she’d been missing so much , immediately bringing an overwhelming warmth to the redhead’s chest . if she didn’t know better , if she didn’t know they needed to talk about the whole thing with a clear head , no more secrets being kept , chances were she would have jumped into james’ arms right then & there . ❝ hi ... ❞ she greets him , saccharinity coating her voice as a lazy smile appears on rosy lips . stepping to the side , she opened the door a little more so that he could come in , closing it behind james once he’d stepped inside . ❝ so ... you really did shower , hm ? i feel so honored , ❞ she teased , hands resting behind her back as the redhead found herself fidgetting with her fingers , nervous about what was yet to come . luckily , a quiet meow broke the brief silence as her white cat entered the room , wiggling her way towards james . ❝ oh , right , adora is awake . ❞ giggling , angel brushed a red curl behind her ear . ❝ i think she’s in a better mood today ; i must’ve annoyed her so much ... ❞
