It didn’t help that she was counting up every penny she spent in here on shit she didn’t need so she could hardly enjoy herself. Turning, she spotted her sister and gave her a smile. “Oh, hey!” She leaned against the bar, not having expected to see her out. “Are you here by yourself?” She wondered.

She knew this probably wasn’t where anyone expected her to be. She felt like she was always with her family or Declan in familyh sponsored areas not in clubs or bars but she was actually sort of enjoying herself with the bass of the music vibrating in her chest. “Yeah. Declan has work tomorrow so I didn’t want to drag him out so late.” she said though she hadn’t originally thought about bringing anyone with her she wanted to prove she could be out herself. She felt defensive at the question though like her sister didn’t think she could handle being alone.

Declan laughed softly, brushing her hair off her shoulder and neck as he kissed along her skin. “That’s my job as your boyfriend.” He teased, wrapping his arms around her. He smirked when she said that she didn’t want him to expand out of Baberton, holding her tight to his chest.  “I’m not going anywhere unless I can take you with me.”

She blushed tilting her head as she allowed him more room to kiss her. “No your job is to love me.” she said tapping his chest playfully. She leaned against him with a soft smile looking at him shyly. “Promise.” she said softly.

Angela was trying to decide what to cook for dinner for them. Sighing a little bit as she pulled out some meat. “I’m thinking spaghetti.” She stated, before glancing over at her wife for a moment. The last thing she expected was one of their daughter to come in. When she heard Ingrid’s voice, she smiled. “Hey sweetie. Of course you can. Is everything okay?” She questioned while looking over at her for a moment. @prxttyliars​

Kristen sat at the kitchen table, reading as Angela cooked. At the offer of spaghetti, she nodded. “That sounds perfect, my love.” She smiled, getting up from the table and walking over to her wife, wrapping one arm around her waist as she kissed her cheek, before hearing one of their daughters walk in. “You know you don’t need to ask, we’re always here for you, Ingrid. What’s going on?”

@ingrid–devlin​

“Everything’s fine I promise. Um could we just sit before you start making dinner.” she said feeling nervous as she looked at them both waiting for them before taking a breath. “Okay so I’ve been seeing this guy and it’s actually feeling really serious now like I know it’s not just a passing fancy for me and I want you to meet him and I was thinking I could make dinner for all us and him next weekend.” she said feeling a bit shy and her words came out much more rushed than she meant fearing what her mothers would say, if they would trust her cause it felt still like she had no trust in this house.

Ingrid was trying to feel normal. Prove the thing with Sophie didn’t effect her as much as it did. After all she didn’t need her family or Declan fussing over her as much as they had been as of late. She held her water close trying to get out of her head smiling when she saw her sister. “Hey Yas.”

@secretsummerstarters​

Yasmin had gone to The Attic to let off some steam but she wasn’t really having the best time as it was. Moving up to the bar she ordered another drink and looked around the club.

Declan smiled softly when she explained why she liked it so much. “Okay, well, when you say it like that, I do like it.” He nodded, kissing her cheek as she blushed.  “Of course they are.” He sighed, not wanting to talk about this topic too much if it was going to upset her.  “It’s so hard to sell people a house and convince them to stay here when all I want to do is get the hell out of here.” He murmured.

“And you always make fun of me for it.” she said giggling playfully loving his affection. She was glad he agreed with her. She didn’t want to get into that arguement but she knew they probably shouldn’t be bothering others around them about it. “I would say expand selling further out than Barberton but then I’d see you even less and I’m a very selfish person.” she teased with a hint of seriousness in her voice.

[ingrid--devlin]

nxt-a-fairy-tale​:

Declan held her as she leaned into him, rubbing her back gently.  He nodded when she said she was a little distracted, looking at her.  “Ah, yes, the snaps.” He teased.  He could tell she wasn’t exactly telling the truth but he hoped that when she needed to she would talk to him.  “I just don’t understand.” He admitted. “After they found out that you and Jackson had still been there how did they not triple check to make sure there was no one else?” He muttered angrily.

“Hey make fun all you want but you get to see me when you’re busy and vice versa and I think that’s really nice.” she said blushing a bit. “I don’t know. Maybe the police in Barberton are just incompetent.” she said maybe she shouldn’t have but it was how she felt as she looked down gently stroking the petals of the pink camellias just to keep her calm. She was glad he didn’t dig in more she hated lying especially to him.

Declan smiled softly when she called him sweet. When she came out from behind the counter, he wrapped his arm around her as he handed her the flowers.  “Got a break and just missed you.” He admitted, keeping his hand on her back to keep her close.  “Honestly? I wanted to check in and make sure you were alright.  I’m sure its been hard for you lately and I just want you to know that I’m here for you. No matter what you need.”

Ingrid smiled smelling the flowers as she almost melted into his embrace and leaned against him. “Missed you too. I’ve been a little distracted. I’ll start snapping you more often so you miss me less.” she said softly. She bit her lip. “I’m good. Seriously. I feel worried for Sophie and Brad since I know what it was like to be forgotten there but I’m absolutely good.” she lied. She was already worried her family was going to scare him off soon. She didn’t want to scare him off herslf.

Ingrid had started feeling extra paranoid after everything. She was obsessive about safety. She wouldn’t go to bed until her mothers and sister were home. She made sure that all windows and doors were locked and closed. When she worked closing she would lock the doors exactly on time to count down and then call her sister on the walk home. She had realized how much of a panic she had been in and had actually been afraid for once to reach out to Declan. To show she was just too much of a hassle even if he never made her feel like one and now here he was with flowers looking so damn beautiful. “Nothing as sweet as you.” she said softly at him. “Cait I’m taking a five.” she called out to her boss coming out from behind the counter. “What are you doing here.” she said shyly

@ingrid–devlin​

After all the news had come out about the Dollhouse explosion, Declan knew how hard it must be for Ingrid having to think about that place again. Picking up a bouquet of her favorite flowers, he stopped by Caitlin’s Cakes, smiling when he saw her.  “Got anything sweet for me?” He smirked, leaning in and kissing her cheek.

[ingrid--devlin]

She stopped what she was doing when her sister sat down. What could this be. Something serious something worrisome. She tried to get it out of her head tried to tell herself that it was paranoia and that whatever Yas was going to say wasn’t that bad until she felt the chill run down her spine at her sister’s words. “Someone else was down there.” she said that part being more important to her as awful as someone dying was Sophie Baker had been down there. For who knows how long and immedietely she felt the pang of empathy. Of knowing what it was like to be left and forgotten and tortured. “Is Sophie okay.” she asked needing to know she felt like she needed to check up on her but if she was just found how many more places were there. Would anyone else be found, or taken.

ingrid–devlin​:

Ingrid raised her eyebrow at her sister curiously. She hadn’t really read anything in the papers and tended to try and stay away from gossip. It had caused too many panic attacks over the years so she had no clue what had happened with the Dollhouse. She grabbed her sister’s hands pulling her to the bed. “What’s going on Yas?” she said confused.

Yasmin shook her head, taking her sister’s hands as she sat down on the bed in front of her. “That place… the place where you…. where you were…” She was frowning. “They found it. They found…” It was surreal to even think the words let alone say them. “They found two more people down there. Sophie Baker…” Yasmin shook her head. “There was an explosion, some police died…”

@ingrid–devlin​

“Did you hear what happened?!” Yasmin burst into Ingrid’s room and rushed over to her, wondering if telling her about the Dollhouse was even a good idea or not.

Ingrid felt a bit nervous as she saw her mums in the kitchen together. Normally she caught them apart and she didn’t want to intrude on any of their solitary time together and be a bigger nuisance than she already was but she wanted to ask them together. She took a breath and walked in. “I was wondering if I could talk with you both.” she said almost shyly her hands playing with the bottom of her shirt to keep busy. 

[ingrid--devlin]

nxt-a-fairy-tale​:

“I’m more concerned with you loving me.” Declan chuckled softly. “Sounds good. If they do come to my place, will you help me cook?”

She smiled softly. “Of course I’ll help you.” she said stroking his cheek lovingly.

[ingrid--devlin]

nxt-a-fairy-tale​:

“I love you, I’m not ashamed.  Parents usually like me.” He shrugged, hoping that it would be true.  “Would I have them over to my place or would I go to there’s?”

She smiled softly. “My mums will love you so much.” she said softly. “I can check with them and message you after.” she said kissing his cheek. 

[ingrid--devlin]

nxt-a-fairy-tale​:

Declan smiled softly as they kissed.  “You’ll always have me.” He promised, murmuring softly as the kiss broke apart.  “But I agree that I probably should meet them, especially if you’re going to be staying at my place more…”

“You’re certain you want to I don’t want to push it.” she said feeling shyly about this as she ran her fingers over his cheek. “But maybe if you really are okay with it we can have a dinner.” she mumbled softly.

[ingrid--devlin]

nxt-a-fairy-tale​:

Declan smiled softly when she squeezed his hand.  “I mean, it’s ten years and while I don’t feel like it’s a big deal, I’m also not a parent.” He mused, looking at her.  When she said she loved him, he looked at her before cupping her face and kissing her again. “I love you too.”

She smiled softly. “I don’t know if it’ll be a big deal to them.” she said after a moment. “I just thought it would be nice but if you’re not comfortable with him we can forget I said anything I’m not fussed as long as I have you.” she said. She placed her hands on his chest as she kissed back smiling at his words

[ingrid--devlin]

nxt-a-fairy-tale​:

Declan shook his head as she started to ramble, reaching for her hand to calm her down.  He ran his thumb over her knuckles giving her a small smile. “No, no, it’s not that. I promise.  It’s just, do your mums know how old I am?”

She blushed feeling a bit silly for freaking out and squeezed his hand before frowning a bit. “What does your age matter.” she said. She didn’t see why it would. “No I haven’t told them how old you are but I just...I love you so that’s all that matters. It’s not like I’m some child.”

[ingrid--devlin]

nxt-a-fairy-tale​:

Declan looked at her when she said she wanted him to meet her parents.  “Are you sure?” He asked softly.  It wasn’t that he didn’t want to meet them, he wasn’t ashamed of any part of their relationship, but he did wonder how they would feel about their daughter dating someone his age.

“I...” she started seeing his face and she bit her lip. “It’s too soon right. We don’t have to I’m sorry for ruining your kind gesture and making this all awkward please ignore me.” she said quickly feeling embarrassed. She didn’t know the reason he seemed uncertain thinking it was just too quick and that she was childish and rushing this because he was her first boyfriend.
