sharing is caring + random 🙈

sharing is caring prompts. [ 19 ] sharing a motorcycle

"would you quit being such a damn baby and get on? i know what i'm doing, i'm not gonna kill you." given harley's reckless reputation, he couldn't say he entirely blamed reina for showing a little hesitance over essentially putting her life in his hands by getting on the bike with him, but that didn't mean he was going to be any less huffy about it. today had been exhausting, just one thing after the other - after what had felt like several lifetimes of exhausting days, really - and the last thing he wanted to do right now was spend the next hour arguing with this chick over- oh. before he could even manage to get another word - presumably one dripping with sarcasm - out, she was positioning herself on the back of his motorcycle, leaving him to be the one left standing there with the helmet in his hand. "well... good." he mutters under his breath, taken aback by how easy that had been, expecting a much bigger fight - the kind he was used to having with his peers, always entering into attack mode on impulse. once the helmet is strapped on, he joins her, reaching behind himself to grab her arms and wrap them around his waist -- strictly for safety reasons, of course. he has a girlfriend, after all - sort, of, sometimes - and it's not like he's into reina like that. maybe she's a little less annoying than he'd been anticipating, but that doesn't mean there's anything here. he doesn't need anyone else in his life, and, as nice as her family has been to him, he knows it's just a matter of time before they gave up and kicked him to the curb, just like the rest of them. just because reina's body feels warm against his own, almost... comforting, like a weighted blanket - sort of like the kind gifted to him by the family when they'd noticed how cold harley could get in the night - it didn't mean anything. she was just a person, someone else who would surely let him down, toss him aside, and forget about him. no doubt about it.

intimacy + randomizer/surprise me 🙈

non-sexual forms of intimacy prompts. [ 60 ] going with / escorting the other to a doctor / therapist appointment

he never thought he'd be here. not on purpose, at least. a ripped condom, failed birth control, some sort of witchcraft -- but not as a result of planning and trying and preparation. an actual desire for parenthood. after the loss of his mother, and the relentless fuck-ups of his father - not to mention the misplacement into countless foster homes through the years - he had convinced himself this just wasn't in his future, wasn't in the cards for him, and he'd told himself he was okay with that. and then, reina. she'd been the one to bring it up first, in the midst of conversations about their future, once things between them had turned serious enough to warrant that kind of talk. the topic had been brought up cautiously, from someone who knew the baggage that came with harley regarding it, someone who cared enough to not want to hurt him in the process. plenty of discussions had been had since then, all leading to the one that got them to where they were today, tucked away at the end of a long hallway in a small doctor's office, waiting for the results to come back, breaths held in anticipation to see if they'd match the ones given on that box full of sticks tested the other day. his hand is clammy in hers, he can feel just how damp the damn thing is, but reina doesn't seem to mind, and even when he tries to pull it away to wipe off on his jeans, she only clutches harder, so there it remains, in place, until, finally, the nurse returns with the news. they're going to be parents.

SPOTS TO KISS + # (surprise me ☺️)

spots to kiss prompts. [ 17 ] a kiss on the underside of the jaw.

"shh, you're gonna get us caught." for the person pretty obviously creating the most noise between the two, it was a bold accusation to make, but it was also fairly evident that harley didn't actually give a shit about getting busted -- at least, not unless it came at the expense of being interrupted before his highly important plan of getting his fingers under reina's skirt came to fruition. a night out on the boardwalk had mysteriously led to an oceanside bar, an uncounted number of drinks, a little dancing, and quite possibly more smiles on harley's face in a singular evening than had been spotted in the past near-decade total. the walk home had been full of laughter, the occasional light stumble, and kisses that didn't ever seem to quite land on their planned destination of reina's lips, but now they were finally back at the beach house, with more surfaces to balance on, and an housemate-less kitchen full of clutter that seemed to have some sort of mission of getting knocked over by the handsy pair. in a grand sweep that had felt like a good idea at the time - and one harley would probably still stand by, if questioned about it - the rest of the objects in their way go scattering to the floor, and the empty space on the countertop is soon replaced by reina's backside with some assistance from the not-even-remotely quiet man before her, the very same one who can't seem to stop giggling tonight, even as his lips meet the soft skin where her jaw meets her neck, sucking a mark there that is sure to not go unnoticed by their friends in the morning. oops.

heina for the couple meme ☺️

who hogs the duvet

my gut reaction was the man who is perpetually freezing, however, i feel like he would just be so against the idea of being called a blanket hog that he'd go too far the other end with it and just wind up blanket-less and shivering instead, to prove a point, a refusal of being seen as spoiled or too cozy because god forbid he allows himself comfort. i think reina would probably catch on pretty quick though and make sure he's bundled in, probably using the excuse of wanting him to spoon her so that he's close enough to where she can make sure he's covered, and that he can feel like he's doing her a favor, instead of the going through the horrors of getting like, bare minimum pampering. (but also reina actually did want him spooning her, so win-win).

who texts/rings to check how their day is going

i think they both do, but initially it would be more harley. nothing wild, just like a simple "u good?" every so often, but i think reina would maybe be worried about bothering him at first, since she knows he's not super upfront with talking about his feelings, and it would be more so just maybe pictures of things she sees during her day, just kind of showing she's thinking about him, rather than directly just asking if he's okay or not, and being able to tell how he's doing based on his reaction.

who’s the most creative when it comes to gifts

i think reina would be better with getting harley just the right present, like a jacket he saw once and wanted but didn't buy because he doesn't deserve nice things, but i think harley would maybe be more creative, since reina's probably the only person he's ever getting gifts for, so he would have the ability to put more time into it, and make things really sentimental because he's a sap at heart, and i could see him making her a book of all the poems he's secretly written about her over the years or some shit like that.

who gets up first in the morning

harley. he's not a morning person, he's still just as much of a grump, but he gets up pretty early.

who suggests new things in bed

reina. harley is super vanilla (when he's not a literal lust demon lol) and generally doesn't steer too far from just like, basic positions and stuff, primarily because he doesn't really trust most of the people he's been intimate with enough to try new things like that with them.

who cries at movies

probably reina, if either of them, though harley might get a little teary eyed if something hits a little too close to home.

who gives unprompted massages

probably harley, i can definitely see him just giving reina a little back rub or foot massage at the end of a long day.

who fusses over the other when they’re sick

reina. harley is such a baby when he's sick, refusing to admit he's sick, or that he needs taking care of, so she would probably have to physically stay there with him and make sure he's staying in bed and resting.

who gets jealous easiest

reina. 👀 even if harley is more likely to admit to jealousy when he does feel it.

who has the most embarrassing taste in music

i think harley listens to like, hard metal or classical and nothing in between tbh, so maybe reina? though that in itself is kind of embarrassing lmao

who collects something unusual

it would have to be reina by default, if either of them, considering harley has pretty much just a singular backpack of possessions to his name by choice

who takes the longest to get ready

reina, though harley might still drag his feet to get out the door, depending on where they're going

who is the most tidy and organised

harley's lowkey a germaphobe, and that, combined with a lack of possessions, probably makes it him? but i feel like reina would be more organized scheduling-wise and that sort of thing

who gets most excited about the holidays

externally, reina, i'm sure, but i think harley would have a nicer time than he lets on, even if he's complaining about the sun in his eyes

who is the big spoon/little spoon

harley is definitely big spoon

who gets most competitive when playing games and/or sports

i can absolutely see this being reina, and i think harley would find it super cute, so he'd put more effort in just so he'd have the opportunity to see her getting competitive, even if he didn't care that much about winning

who starts the most arguments

harley. usually when he's feeling upset about something, and would rather deal with feeling anger instead of sadness or hurt

who suggests that they buy a pet

reina. harley would be against it, and then become besties with the thing like two days later

what couple traditions they have

probably something involving getting tiramisu, maybe on their anniversary?

what tv shows they watch together

i could see reina getting harley into some sort of romantic show that he's totally against at first (much like the pet), but winds up heavily invested in. maybe a period piece of some kind.

what other couple they hang out with

none, if harley can help it 🫢

how they spend time together as a couple

i think there's a lot of parallel play going on lol, like reina working on some music while harley just sits near her and reads, just enjoying each other's company in a more low-effort way

who made the first move

harley, but it was a "joke" just in case she wasn't into it

who brings flowers home

i feel like harley is a singular rose kind of guy, he would just put one in a vase and leave it on reina's nightstand

who is the best cook

i think harley's really good at sort of staple meals, but i doubt he has much experience in anything fancy, since he's spent most of his life just cooking for one, but reina would be better at things that are a little more creative than just grilled cheese or casserole
