y’all ever read a fanfic that you cannot believe an author just wrote for free?? what an honor it is to read a piece of someone’s soul they shared out of nothing but love for a piece of media. what a privilege it is to be allowed their talent because you share an interest!!

little something for my angel @holbrk

You fall asleep with his warmth still clinging to your skin, the weight of him burned into every nerve. The kind of sleep that comes only after he’s taken you apart and put you back together again. The third time that night. 

But when you stir, the sheets are cool where Ted should be. The absence of him makes your chest tighten; you fear the lack of his warmth more than anything. You’ve grown used to it, like a lullaby that eases you into sleep, keeping at bay the monsters that sometimes come to haunt you.

Padding out of the bedroom in one of his worn shirts, your bare feet chilled against the tiles, you find him in the living room: sunk into the armchair in grey sweatpants and that yellow t-shirt, the glow of a late-night football replay flickering across his face. The night feels colder than it should, after a day when the desert heat had been unbearable. Ted looks up the moment he senses you, eyes soft, brown hues shimmering in the dim light, and steady in a way that undoes you.

“Hey,” he murmurs. “You okay?”

You don’t answer, not with words at least. You just climb into his lap, curling small against him. Ted doesn’t hesitate, only wraps you up, big hands splaying across your back as if he could keep every piece of you together. He kisses your temple, slow and reverent, and rocks you gently until your breathing evens out. You feel the steady beat of his heart against your cheek, sinking into a warmth that completes you in ways you can’t yet name.

And it hits you how contradictory he is. The same man who knows how to ruin you with his mouth and his hands, who commands a whole town with the weight of his title, yet here he is: holding you like you’re something breakable, something precious. The Mayor of Eddington to everyone else. 

But to you, just Ted: soft, steady, and yours.

thanks for reading 💌

QUIET HOURS — ‧₊˚ ⏾. ⋅ | a ted garcia drabble

word count: 379 | warnings: may induce tears??, the mayor is feeling sad. pairing: solo!ted and some ted garcia x f!reader notes: thank you @jadesmultifandom for being my beta reader. gifs made by me.

The bar had emptied out long after midnight, the last glass washed and set aside. Ted wiped down the counter one final time, the old rag damp in his hand. The place smelled faintly of whiskey and wood polish, a comfort in its own way. He sighed, stretching his back, the weight of the day settling heavy across his broad shoulders.

Locking up, he stepped out into the night. Rain had begun to trickle, soft at first, then steadier, slicking the pavement in silver. His boots carried him to his car, the streets quiet enough that he could almost imagine the world was his alone as he began the drive home.

Inside, the house was dark and still. Eric already locked up in and more than likely asleep in his room. Loosening the buttons of his shirt, Ted made way to his bathroom. After a brisk shower, he set the kettle on. A hot mug of tea soon warmed his palms, steam curling up against his face. He leaned back in his chair, listening to the patter of rain against the window, letting it soothe the restless edges of his thoughts.

By the time he slipped into bed, the storm was in full swing, water racing down the gutters, wind rattling the glass. He lay on his side, staring at the wall before him, the faint glow of the moon casting shifting shadows across his bedroom.

Laying in the darkness he began to think of his ex-wife. It had been years since she left. He had grown used to the silence she left behind, but sometimes — like now, with the rain pressing close — it ached. He let himself imagine what it might be like to find love again, someone to share these quiet hours with. Someone who’d laugh at his tired jokes, who’d brush her hand against his when she passed him a cup of tea. Someone who might fall asleep beside him, the warmth of her breath soft against his neck.

Ted closed his eyes, chasing the fragile dream, letting it take shape. For a moment, the ache lifted, replaced by something tender and hopeful. The rain carried him toward sleep, steady and forgiving, as though the world were whispering that maybe, just maybe — he still had time.

Series tags: Dude ranch cowboy Jack AU | mini-series | solo travel romance | lots of horsey details | self-indulgent AF | set in Wyoming | no physical descriptions of Reader

Note: You guys voted for Palomino to be the next WIP after Consent, and who am I to refuse? But honestly, thank you for voting for Jack, because I've been dying to write this story. If you'd like to be tagged, please comment, reblog or sign up at my taglist.

Part 1: Palomino

Unable to get a refund for a week-long horse-riding pack trip you'd booked with your ex, you decide to go solo. As it turns out, a rebound with a cowboy named Jack while traversing the wild landscapes of Wyoming might just be what you need.

Part 2: Buckskin

It's an eventful first day on the trail, to say the least.

Part 3: Dapple Grey

Tinder is a dangerous game. So is Never Have I Ever.

Part 4: Strawberry Roan

Jack pulls out all the stops for your birthday. All of them.

Part 5: Appaloosa

You and Jack play house for a day.

Part 6: Mustang

On the fifth day, you leave the Halfway House behind, and the conversation turns homeward.

Part 7: Fleabitten

You and Jack spend your last night together in the mountains - for now.

Part 8: Silver Pony

Part 9: Warmblood

The hardest goodbye you’ll ever say.

Palomino-inspired cocktail recipe by darlin' Skye @iamskyereads

I can't believe that Palomino now has its own cocktail!!! I'm so honoured that Skye created and shared this recipe with us. All the elements are perfect, from the Campfire whiskey (Darlin's favourite time of the day - snuggling with Jack by the fire), apple (If Only reference) and Ginger (who convinced Darlin' not to cancel the trip). I cannot wait to try this cocktail myself, thank you so so much my love ❤️

More notes: This is a very personal story to me as I grew up loving and riding horses. I've been lucky enough to go on several horseriding holidays, and I'm writing directly from experience - except the hot cowboy part, sadly. Even if you don't ride, I hope you enjoy this story, and I will be the happiest writer if I impart to you even a fraction of the joy of exploring the great outdoors from the back of a steady (or speedy) steed.
