“I thought there’d be stars.” @ ash

cabin in the woods meme | @empathreading

it is a disappointing sight, the sky full of clouds rather than the twinkling lights eldon loves so much. perhaps if ash had better abilities he’d be able to clear the clouds, make it better for eldon. but then he has an idea. is it a good idea? that’s up for debate. he moves from the roof to inside eldon’s room, searching around their house a couple of minutes before he returns to the roof with a rope. this could end horribly, but ash is all about the safety. that’s why he has a rope.

he ties the rope around eldon tightly before he ties the other end around himself. to eldon having ash tied on to his back probably seems strange, but he’s got a plan. a good one. a moment of complete silence before ash sprouts his wings, and in seconds the pair are flying. he’s holding on to eldon as tightly as he can, constantly watching the rope to make sure it doesn’t break. a fall from this height would not end nicely for anyone.

soon enough the pair are high above the clouds, both the stars above and the city below being visible as they soar through the skies. it’s a beautiful sight, even if up close it’s not as great. after flying for a couple of minutes ash made his way back to eldon’s roof, landing as gently as he can and continuing to hold eldon for a minute before he unties the rope and pulls his wings back in, his hands staying on eldon’s shoulders to make sure he doesn’t fall as he gets used to being on the ground again. he probably should’ve given eldon some warning, prepared him to actually fly in the sky without a plane.

as if it was nothing ash sits back down again, looking up at the clouds covering the sky once more. “the clouds don’t look so bad though.”

'i want the k' from whichever of my ocs to whoever (i'm too lazy 2 decide pls)

meme // @empathreading.↳ 4. forehead kiss.

it’s been a long day, heavy nerves throughout the group as they sit in the hospital waiting room. belle, finally found, but not found okay. no one got many details. the doctors had told eldon what had happened, but he didn’t speak. he just sat there, waiting for something. anything. perhaps even waiting for belle to show up, completely fine. perhaps waiting to hear that she didn’t make it.

by the time the doctor returns with news eldon’s fallen asleep, head resting against ash’s shoulders. the flame-haired boy does his best not to wake the teen as he stands up, gently moving eldon’s head to rest against the edge of the chair. it takes a while to convince the doctor to tell him anything, but considering the twins’ actual father didn’t make an effort ashley was the best option they had.

slight lacerations around the wrists and ankles, a stab wound that had left the girl losing a lot of blood, no ideas of exactly what happened but her hands had been tied for days, likely the entire week she’d been missing. all that eldon had already heard, giving an explanation of what had him shocked into silence. but now there was new information. stable condition, out of surgery, visitors allowed, could wake up any minute, police ready to come as soon as she wakes.

ash so desperately wants to let eldon sleep, give the boy at least a little longer of peace, but he knows the eldon needs to hear it now. plus, eldon would never forgive him if he found out he’d held back information about belle. “elly, buddy.” words are spoken gently as ash kneels in front of eldon. they’re the only ones there at this point: cam, lou and gabe leaving because the sun would soon be up, and bianca taking holden home because ash didn’t want them to miss school. 

eldon looks terrified from the moment he opens his eyes, the memory of what he’d been told coming to mind as he realizes where he is. “the doctor came over to say-” but ash stops himself as he notices tears brewing in the boys eyes. “it’s okay, hey, she’s okay.” he says gently, pulling the boy into a hug. the pair are clutching each other with all of their strength, and for a moment he wonders how much tighter the hug would’ve been if she hadn’t been okay. “she’s alright, she’ll be fine.” it’s mumbled as a gentle kiss is placed on the teens forehead, the hug lingering a moment before ash pulls back. “she’s okay. she’s still asleep, but she’s okay.” he stands now, gently taking eldon’s hands in his own. “come on, lets go see her.”
