New Bethel Incident, Detroit 1969

Black Radicalism, Police Repression, Mass Arrests, and an Enduring Mystery

Published June 2021 by Policing and Social Justice HistoryLab/U-M Carceral State Project

Part I: Republic of New Africa

Part II: Outside the Church

Part III: Invading the Church

Part IV: Protests and Trials

Story design by Francesca Ferrara, Caroline Levine, and Matt Lassiter; based on the Detroit Under Fire exhibit section " New Bethel Incident ," researched and written by Aidan Traynor and Matt Lassiter.

On March 29, 1969, a dozen officers from the Detroit Police Department (DPD) invaded the New Bethel Baptist Church and arrested 142 African Americans gathered for the national convention of the Republic of New Africa (RNA). The Black nationalist organization was under constant surveillance by the FBI and the DPD, including multiple undercover agents and informants who had infiltrated the group. The incident began when two white officers initiated a confrontation with armed RNA bodyguards outside the church. What exactly happened is still in dispute, but one officer died in the shootout and his partner claimed that they did not have their guns drawn and were just trying to talk to the Black men. Black power and civil rights activists in Detroit did not believe this cover story and considered the confrontation to be part of the broader policy of politically motivated police repression during the late 1960s. After the 1967 Uprising, the Detroit Police Department criminalized Black Power organizations through illegal surveillance , targeted repression , and mass arrests , including a parallel campaign to destroy the local chapter of the Black Panther Party.

Prisoners inside New Bethel Baptist Church ( source )

A contingent of DPD officers responded to the shooting outside the church by storming inside with extreme force, firing wildly and hitting at least four unarmed and innocent people, taking everyone prisoner and threatening to kill them, and committing many acts of brutality. The DPD's official report claimed that a "hail of gunfire" from inside the church justified the police action, which was a lie to justify the abuses and was contradicted by all of the physical evidence and Black eyewitness testimony. The white police officers arrested all 142 people present--men, women, and children--for "conspiracy to commit murder."

Judge George Crockett, an African American and frequent critic of illegal DPD action, ordered the release of everyone wrongfully detained, which set off a political firestorm. The DPD hierarchy and the Detroit Police Officers Association (DPOA), the reactionary white-dominated union , attacked Judge Crockett in a sustained campaign. Black power and civil rights groups defended the judge and escalated their fight against DPD repression. The murder trials of two RNA bodyguards resulted in acquittals and highlighted additional evidence of unconstitutional police methods. The question of what exactly happened outside the church remains an enduring mystery.

This investigative report reproduces secret FBI and DPD surveillance documents as well as eyewitness accounts of the church invasion, inquiries by civil rights agencies, protests by Black community organizations, and records from the murder trials. Scroll down to explore one of the most controversial and polarizing incidents in the history of Detroit during the civil rights era.

"Can any of you imagine the Detroit Police Department invading an all-white church and rounding up everyone in sight? . . . Can anyone explain in other than racial terms the shooting by police into a closed and surrounded church?"--Recorder's Court Judge George C. Crockett, April 3, 1969

Part I: The Republic of New Africa and Illegal Police Surveillance

The FBI's secret COINTELPRO initiative worked with local police departments to "neutralize" black nationalist groups during the late 1960s and early 1970s ( source )

The Federal Bureau of Investigation launched its COINTELPRO against "Black Nationalist-Hate Groups" on August 25, 1967. The top-secret mission instructed FBI field offices to "disrupt" and "neutralize" Black Power organizations, ostensibly because they advocated violence. In reality, COINTELPRO was an overtly political repression campaign in service of a right-wing law enforcement agenda, part of the FBI's long history of investigating "subversive" civil rights groups and criminalizing political dissent. The FBI shared its "counterintelligence" with local police departments across the country, including the DPD. Even though Black Power groups advocated self-defense against police brutality, the FBI claimed that they were part of a nationwide conspiracy to promote "bitter and diabolic violence" in urban America. The FBI specifically warned that Black radical "urban guerillas" were plotting to ambush police officers through "acts of outrageous terror."

The Detroit Police Department conducted its own secret and unconstitutional political surveillance program, often dubbed the "Red Squad" because of its primary focus on left-wing radicals. The DPD's clandestine Criminal Intelligence Bureau spied on civil rights, Black Power, and New Left organizations--collecting intelligence to help guide illegal police crackdowns designed to repress their political activities. The DPD worked closely with the FBI as well as the Special Investigation Unit of the Michigan State Police, which shared the same mission and engaged in massive civil liberties violations of the rights of citizens during this era. All three of these law enforcement agencies had the Republic of New Africa under surveillance in the build-up to the New Bethel Incident of March 1969, including at least five undercover agents and informants and probably more.

Republic of New Africa

Cover of the RNA's 1968 founding manifesto ( source ). Read the full document here.

The Republic of New Africa (RNA) was a Black nationalist organization that originated in Detroit at the Black Government Conference called by the Malcolm X Society in March 1968. The founding meeting took place at the Shrine of the Black Madonna, a church pastored by Rev. Albert Cleage, one of Detroit's most influential Black Power leaders. About two hundred Black people from all over the United States signed the RNA’s declaration of independence stating, “forever free and independent of the Jurisdiction of the United States.”

The RNA's purpose was to establish a "Black Nation" inside the United States and to gain international recognition as a politically independent entity. The group demanded political control of the "black ghettoes" and of a large territory with a majority-Black population in five southern states. The RNA also called on the United States government pay each Black person $10,000 for reparations. The delegates elected Robert F. Williams, a Black Power leader from North Carolina who was exiled in Cuba, as their president, and Milton Henry, a well-known radical attorney in Michigan, as their vice-president. The RNA included a statement that it would achieve its goals "by arms if necessary."

Political Surveillance and Infiltration by FBI COINTELPRO

The FBI placed leaders of the RNA under surveillance even before they formed the organization in March 1968. This memo about the RNA's founding to a top FBI official came from an agent who had infiltrated the movement and was reporting on the initial Detroit gathering. This is clear because the author of the memo is redacted, which the FBI always did for its undercover agents and informants when forced to release internal files under Freedom of Information Act requests. Note also that the RNA's Minister of Defense is redacted, indicating that the person in this key position worked for the FBI.

The COINTELPRO program was secret at the time, and the American public did not learn of its existence until 1971. It was standard practice for the FBI's undercover "agents provocateur" to advocate violence so that the FBI could justify the surveillance and repression of radical organizations. The COINTELPRO mission was to "expose, disrupt, misdirect, discredit, or otherwise neutralize the activities of black nationalist, hate-type organizations and groupings, their leadership, spokesmen, membership, and supporters."

According to this report, provided by an FBI informant, the RNA was planning violence and guerrilla warfare.

It is hard to know for sure if RNA members who were radical Black nationalists actually advocated "warfare" against the United States, or if the FBI informant just claimed that they did to justify the law enforcement operation, or whether the leading advocates of violence inside the RNA were the FBI's "agents provocateur."

Source: View the entire memo here .

The COINTELPRO program rapidly infiltrated RNA chapters around the country, and the FBI's full RNA file (available in the Archives Unbound database) makes clear that the Bureau had more than a dozen and perhaps several dozen informants inside the organization, making up a significant percentage of its active membership.

The FBI sent several undercover informants to the second convention of the RNA, held in Detroit in late March 1969, that culminated in the New Bethel Incident. In the memo below, FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover personally authorizes travel to Detroit by an RNA member from the Los Angeles chapter who is working undercover for the FBI, one of several such memos in the COINTELPRO file.

Hoover's authorization of Los Angeles informant ( source )

The FBI shared this information with the Detroit Police Department and the Michigan State Police, who also had the RNA under surveillance through their own political counterintelligence operations. In addition, based on the COINTELPRO file, it is almost certain that the FBI also had an undercover operative in a position of influence inside the central RNA group in Detroit.

This is particularly important because, as revealed below in secret FBI documents, the Bureau's own undercover agent stated that the Detroit Police Department officers initiated the confrontation outside the New Bethel Baptist Church by firing first, and that no RNA members inside the church fired on the DPD before they stormed inside. But Director J. Edgar Hoover covered up this evidence and reported to the Attorney General and Congress that the RNA radicals had shot at the police first at both stages of the encounter.

The FBI covered up the reports from at least two of its undercover "agents provocateurs" that the Detroit police officers fired at the RNA members outside the church ( source ). The redactions in this document excerpt are FBI agents or informants. View the full document here , taken from FBI files released under FOIA.

Part II: What Happened outside the Church?

"Is it reasonable to believe two white cops would approach 10-12 armed black men, with their pistols in their holsters and no weapons in their hands? . . . Is it conceivable the police behaved illegally? And would they admit it? Have they ever admitted to error in killing black people?"--People Against Racism

Corner of Philadelphia and Linwood where shooting began ( source )

The Republic of New Africa rented the New Bethel Baptist Church for a rally as part of its multi-day Detroit convention in March 1969. The church was pastored by Reverend C. L. Franklin, a prominent civil rights leader in Detroit, and located at the intersection of Philadelphia and Linwood, northwest of downtown. The RNA's rally started at 8 p.m. and ended at 11:25 p.m.

Armed bodyguards were escorting RNA leaders to their cars, and many of the people who attended the rally were still inside, when the gunfire began on the corner of Philadelphia and Linwood.

The Detroit Police Department claimed that two officers were just driving by and saw "approximately 10 to 12 Negro males with guns entering automobiles," so they stopped to investigate. Given that the DPD had the RNA rally under massive surveillance, it is not clear why the patrol officers instigated this encounter, although one theory is that they did not realize what was happening and just stumbled onto the scene.

The two white patrolmen, Michael Czapski and Richard Worobec, approached the RNA group and gunfire ensued. Patrolman Czapski ended up dead with up to seven bullet wounds. Patrolman Worobec was seriously wounded but managed to get into his squad car and drive away before crashing into a storefront.

Patrolmen Richard Worobec ( left ) and Michael Czapski ( right )

The evidence regarding who shot first is contradictory:

Patrolman Worobec testified that a "lone Negro male" shot them both without provocation.

Multiple witnesses said they heard a single shot, then another, then a sustained volley of gunfire. This could support a scenario in which the officers fired first and the RNA bodyguards returned fire.

At least two of the FBI's undercover agents reported that the patrolmen fired first, but the FBI covered this up and so the account never came out. Another FBI informant said that the RNA bodyguards fired first.

An undercover officer with the Michigan State Police claimed to have witnessed the incident and said that the RNA fired first, but he did not testify in the trials, which raises suspicion about the truthfulness of his account.

People Against Racism, an anti-police brutality group in Detroit, asked the DPD story that the white officers approached the large group of armed RNA men with their guns in their holsters and did nothing to provoke the incident, asking: "Is it reasonable to believe two white cops would approach 10-12 armed black men, with their pistols in their holsters and no weapons in their hands?" (Read the full document here ).

Detailed Accounts of the Initial Shootout

The DPD released this police radio log, which was an incomplete summary not a full transcript, raising more questions ( source )

The DPD Version: The police department provided the city of Detroit's civil rights agency with a partial and edited "transcript" of the radio log, based on communications with the dispatcher and the squad car of Patrolman Czapski and Patrolman Worobec, as well as other squad cars that responded (left).

At 11:42 p.m., Scout 10-5 (Czapski and Worobec) radioed in, “We got guys with rifles out here Linwood and Euclid.” The dispatcher sent backup, and a minute later Worobec gave a distress call over the radio and the "two officers shot" report went out.

At 11:48 and 11:49 p.m., the transcript reports that responding officers radioed in that they were taking fire from inside the church. As explained below, there was zero forensic evidence to support this claim, and it was almost certainly a cover story to justify the police action in storming the church.

The clear fabrication of the gunfire from inside the church raises the question of what else the DPD left out of or doctored in this incomplete transcript, which was provided to the Detroit Commission on Community Relations as part of its investigation of police abuses inside the church. It seems particularly unlikely that the two officers would have calmly approached a group of armed Black men at night without having their weapons drawn, as Patrolman Worobec later insisted when he claimed that most of the group scattered before a "lone Negro male" shot them both.

Patrolman Richard Worobec was later part of the notorious STRESS operation that killed at least 22 people , mainly unarmed Black males during undercover decoy operations, between 1971 and 1973. Worobec himself shot and killed two Black teenagers in a September 1971 incident that generated massive community protests. He claimed that the youth had attacked him first, but the evidence strongly indicated that he lied to cover up what really happened, and the city of Detroit paid a $270,000 wrongful death settlement to their families.

Michigan State Police Surveillance: The Michigan State (MSP) version (below) is most interesting because it proves that the law enforcement agency had undercover officers on the scene placing the RNA under surveillance, including one who witnessed the shooting.

This five-page Michigan State Police report on the New Bethel Incident is from the files of Governor William Milliken and is marked "confidential."

It provides a log of the reports to the MSP Operations office. The first entry, 12:03 a.m., notes that an MSP "Intelligence vehicle" was present at the intersection during the shooting.

The second page names the MSP undercover officer as Patrolman Landeros of the DPD, who was tasked to the state police intelligence team.

The report notes that Patrolman Landeros gave a statement to the DPD Homicide Bureau--but he never testified at the RNA trials.

This is suspicious. Did Landeros's statement contradict the account of Richard Worobec, the surviving officer?

The third page of the MSP report relays the Detroit Police Department's false story that Black suspects inside the church were wounded in a shootout, when there is no evidence that anyone except DPD officers fired inside.

The 6:50 a.m. entry corrects previous misinformation and says that "12 to 15 colored subjects" fired on the two DPD officers outside the church.

The fourth page provides an updated account of the DPD's version of what happened outside the church. It is likely that at least one of the armed bodyguards named in this entry was an FBI agent.

The entry also notes the arrest of 140+ people inside the church for "conspiracy to commit murder."

The final page lists five Black "suspects" shot inside the church by DPD officers and frames them as having fired on the police when they did not.

Excerpt from Cincinnati Field Office to FBI Director Hoover ( source ). Read the full three-page document here .

The FBI Informants: At least two of the FBI informants/agents provocateurs told the Cincinnati field office that Patrolmen Worobec and Czapski fired first, and then the RNA bodyguards returned fire.

The document at right is from a heavily redacted report from the FBI's Cincinnati office to Director J. Edgar Hoover. Based on the context, it is clear that at least one and probably two of the undercover informants were sent there by the Cincinnati office and is reporting back. Both say the "police fired first."

The document also makes clear that no one inside the church fired on the police before the DPD rained gunfire into the building.

This document is crucial not only as an eyewitness account insisting that the two white officers provoked the shootout, but also because it proves that FBI Director Hoover lied in his official report about what happened in the New Bethel Incident, found immediately below.

Director J. Edgar Hoover: The FBI Director suppressed all information in the reports he received that contradicted the Detroit Police Department's story that the violent Black radicals in the RNA opened fire unprovoked on the police officers both outside and inside the church. He then sent this memo to Attorney General John Mitchell:

Hoover provided the FBI's official coverup of the New Bethel Incident in this April 4, 1969, memo.

He attributed the account to the FBI's undercover sources, even though he misrepresented what they really said, and to the DPD. Hoover also labeled the RNA a "black extremist" group that instigated the violence both outside and inside the church.

The second page identifies RNA members alleged to have fired on the police officers, based on the undercover FBI informant's account, suppressing the information that the same informant said the police fired first and that no one inside the church shot at the DPD backup.

Hoover also sought to discredit Judge George Crockett, who released the people arrested inside the church and criticized the police abuses, by stating that the Black judge was "in close contact with officials of the Communist Party." The FBI also had a political surveillance file on Crockett, who was a left-wing lawyer before he became a judge.

Hoover concludes that "black extremists" are likely to cause more violence in Detroit.

Black Civilian Witnesses: Multiple witnesses gave statements in the murder trials or to the civil rights investigation by the Detroit Commission on Community Relations. None of them had seen what happened to instigate the encounter, meaning that they did not know whether the two white officers fired first or not. All of them stated that they saw only one Black man (only one of the RNA bodyguards) fire at the officers. This also fits Patrolman Worobec's testimony, and it means that the law enforcement accounts that a large group of RNA bodyguards opened fire were not true. Additionally, the witnesses report that the DPD backup officers were on the scene immediately when the gunfire erupted, which indicates a broader tactical surveillance operation rather than the police department's official story that the squad cars only responded when Patrolman Worobec radioed the dispatcher for help.

Kelly Zanders

Kelly Zanders, a 20-year-old Black female from Cleveland, was leaving the RNA rally and gave her statement to the defense attorneys. She said she did not see the beginning but did see a Black man with a rifle firing at another man on the sidewalk. She also said that Clarence (Chaka) Fuller, who was charged with murder, was with her the whole time and never fired a gun.

Wilbur Gratton

Wilbur Gratton, a 50-year-old Black man and RNA member from Cleveland, said in his affidavit that he saw a man shooting a rifle at another man "lying prone on the sidewalk." He also swore that Chaka Fuller was not the shooter.

Gerald McKinney

Gerald McKinney, a Black man, was driving by and not involved with the RNA. He said he saw a man with a "rifle and he was firing into the back of the police car." McKinney also said that the other DPD officers were already on the scene during the initial shootout.

William Barry, Jr.

William Barry, Jr., a Black man, was riding in the car with Gerald McKinney and said he saw a man on the sidewalk shooting toward the police car. Barry also stated that 15-20 police officers arrived "within seconds," which again raises questions about the veracity of the police log provided by the DPD.

Max Hardeman

Max Hardeman, a Black man, was interviewed for the investigation by the Detroit Commission on Community Relations. He was across the street and said he saw an RNA bodyguard "fire several blasts" at a police officer. Like every other civilian witness, Hardeman saw only one shooter.

The DCCR report concluded that what happened outside the church "has proved impossible to recreate" but was harshly critical of the DPD's actions inside the church, examined next.

Part III: The DPD's Invasion of the Church

"Were basic constitutional rights flouted by acts of reprisal generated from uncontrolled anger over the slaying of a fellow officer?" -- Detroit Commission on Community Relations, investigative report of New Bethel Incident

All of the civilian witnesses agreed that the solitary man who shot at the white police officers did not flee into the church, as the DPD claimed the shooters did in its official report. Whether the two officers fired first or not in the encounter outside the church is still uncertain to this day. What happened next is not. The contingent of DPD officers on the scene fabricated a story that multiple RNA shooters fled into the church, and that "black extremist" radicals inside the church fired at the officers outside, to justify the armed invasion and brutal retaliation that followed. All non-police testimony and all forensic evidence reveals that no one inside the church fired a shot and that every bullet came from a police weapon.

RNA members held prisoner and "herded up like cattle" after the police invasion; photograph from a legal defense pamphlet by the radical League of Revolutionary Black Workers ( source ).

There were 142 African Americans, including many women and children, still inside the New Bethel Baptist Church after the RNA rally when the police assault began around five minutes after the sidewalk shooting. The police contingent of at least a dozen officers fired around 100 rounds into the church before and during the invasion. The Black civilians took refuge and later described a campaign of racial terror and indiscriminate vengeance by the invading officers, even as they tried to surrender and after they were prisoners. The police officers who invaded the church arrested them all and booked everyone present for conspiracy to commit murder.

'...Ripley

Based on Patricia Highsmith’s Tom Ripley novels, this series is essentially The Talented Mr Ripley: The TV Show. Netflix picked up the drama after Showtime abandoned it, and a good thing too. Because here Tom Ripley will be played by Andrew Scott – an inspired piece of casting that promises to electrify a story we’ve heard before. Netflix

Rivals

Jilly Cooper! Aidan Turner! David Tennant! Need we say more? This series is pumped full of top British actors, and it’s penned by Dominic Treadwell-Collins of A Very English Scandal fame plus playwright Laura Wade, known for cutting upper-class satires like The Riot Club. Hopes are sky-high for a high-society masterpiece of camp. Disney+...'

read dune finally rant below of it in comparison to latest adaptation

it is impressive to me that there was a lot of race discourse surrounding the more recent adaptation but all somehow ignore: Dr. Yueh's casting is straight up Fu Manchu anti-East Asian stereotype complete with the wispy mustache, he is only visible Asian character and he is the traitor doctor whose mechanism of action is poisoning. In the book his ethnicity is unclear but he is described as having dark-colored lips and a thin long mustache but it is possible racism from the author (this is a 60s book!) that could y'know, not be carried over into the 21st century remake OR based on descriptions he easily couldve been Persian or something. Plenty of older Islamic art depicts people just like that. It stood out to me in the theater and is now made all the more worse with how vague he was described in the book couldve easily avoided this by simply making some other important characters Asian like Duncan Idaho (although Mamoa is a pretty good casting for him so no complaints there) or Gurney but that didnt happen of course

the only additional female role is that of genderbent Dr Kynes who has a wayyyyy smaller presence, not given nearly as much involvement in the story, dies in a completely different manner without a very important sequence that if the author was alive i would imagine would be a "it must have this sequence". like cool you made this character a black woman and then... gave her less to to do. Great.

oh also the book introduction of the Fremem is very different. they really go out on a limb helping non-fremen out lol. in movie they jump straight to a fight to the death "to win favor" that makes them appear way more "savage" than they do in the book. like how is a 60s book written by a white dude less bad about this than a huge movie production with a team of ppl behind it made now.

i think only welcome change is with the Baron, hes way more weird looking in movie which adds to the space fantasy element and the movie avoids a lot of the gruesome SA and worse mentions which i think can be impactful in the book but in the film would just be too much and im glad they were recognized as best not included

Also Aidan Gallagher would be a much better Paul. I just cannot see Timothee as domineering lol (if I could act I would be a better Paul too tho I'm actually of Mediterranean descent and baby-faced with alert eyes. Paul is supposed to be unnerving as a character because he is a teenager that really does look like a teenager)

#tldr the movie is more racist than the 1960s book #i enjoy both but movie even more Critically

if it makes you feel any better they 100% got rid of five's tattoo. they got rid of the powers, the tattoos and the scars. if you want to do a rewatch for yourself, have a look out in s3e10 for:

klaus' hand tattoos and umbrella tattoo are gone + five checks his arm for his umbrella tattoo and finds nothing

diego + ben have no scars on their faces anymore

luther's ape body was kind of a scar, and that's also gone

i get that blackman wants them to have to experience life without their powers... but that doesn't erase their memories or experiences. removing the scars and tattoos as well as the powers?

five, luther and now viktor have canonical issues with their bodies not matching how they feel. i don't have enough faith in blackman or the writing team to deal with this plot point and the effects it has on their lives, in fact i kind of expect them to brush over it entirely.

a lot of these factors were also massive in building their characters, klaus' tattoos were mainly gotten with dave, the stories behind diego and ben's scars were mysterious and hinted at a trauma that they struggled to overcome, luther's body was a huge plot point and massively effected his life, their umbrella tattoos were one of the only things left linking them together (this must have meant something to five especially).

the only one exempt from this treatment was allison who still has her umbrella tattoo and was still bloodied from the fighting when she arrived home.

i have to admit, this does take away the appeal of the characters just a smidge. i doubt we'll get the story behind ben's scar or diego's, and now it feels like none of their actions up until this point have had any impact.

i was admittedly kind of excited by the idea of making two more characters disabled (five and diego), but also kind of relieved that five's chest tattoo got thanos snapped (it was really tacky and meant nothing to him in the end).

It does make me feel better lmaooo

I went back and checked because I remember checking whether he checked for his tattoos and discarded it because I thought he was checking for a pulse on the arm that had been previously cut off, but you're right, he checks for the tattoo later. Alrighty, great, I wrote 5.5k on the subject and now never have to think about the concept of Five founding the Commission ever again. Swell.

I'm just adding something about Allison, which is that Emmy filmed that scene very early into production of S3 and it might not have been decided yet that the reset would remove their tattoos as well, somebody might have come up with that later into production. I'm reserving thinking about whether or not Allison still has her powers because I simply can't say yet, her still having her umbrella tattoo is still very open to being retconned like Sparrow Ben's emo fringe (rip). I don't see why Reginald would leave her powers intact if he stripped them from everyone else.

I agree with you on everything you said, actually. I definitely don't trust the writers to deal with the body issues that Five, Luther and Viktor have, I was genuinely kind of surprised that Luther's body issues got picked back up in S3 after not existing for S2 without explanation.

Your point about their stories being erased is well-taken (apart from Five's tattoo, that one can stay away, it was tacky, you're so right) and I'm not particularly confident, like you, in the writers paying that loss off in an interesting way.

I thought Diego losing his fingers might impact his powers, so I was mildly disappointed for that to not be the case, and Five losing his dominant arm would have had some kind of impact, had it lasted longer than ten minutes. It would have been interesting, but what I feel like is that they do not have the budget to CGI out David's fingers and Aidan's arm for extended periods of time. And seeing how they treated Harlan, I don't feel particularly confident about how the writers would have tackled those disabilities.

Them being wiped clean, their history erased, is the whole point of that cliffhanger, everything they are now only exists in their memories, so if there is a S4, it remains to be seen how this all is tackled.

Dreamland

chapter five

Author note: this chapter had a lot going on, but I decided we never have a villain in this story so I’m making the executive decision to make the ex in as a cast in this story, this was an introduction chapter for her. Yes y/n and the ex was about to be fiancés but we all know what happened. I already have the next chapter plot line, it’s going to be a doozy. Sorry some of the sentences are below tumblr is being weird. I tried to fix it but it’s not working for me.

Warnings: Vaginal fingering, bathroom sex, unprotected sex (wrap it up before tapping it), oral (receiving both end), toys, thigh riding, some hate comment towards Aidan, daddy kinky, implied to self harm, implied of suicide attempt

It was now three months since Aidan had proposed to me. The best part? My family was proud of me for finding someone to love. I was currently trying on wedding dresses, I had picked out a flowy off the shoulder wedding dress with blue and black lace covering it, I walked out to gauge my party. I had Emmy, Elliot, Tom, David, Robert and my mom. I wanted Justin to be here but he had to help Aidan with picking the right bachelor things for his party in Las Vegas making me snickered at the thought of a drunk Aidan, I mean I saw him drunk at the party that Robert had cockblocked him but he was so dominant than when he saw some creep was trying to get in my pants and how he defended me, than tried to punished me in public, it was so hot, even now thinking about it got a shiver running down my spine, but a whistle brought me back to the present. I stood up on the step thing, letting me see myself for a moment before turning to the group. They all looked serious, I suddenly got nervous, though this was my first dress I have tried on, Robert was the first to speak up. “It’s a nice dress, but it doesn’t fit your body, it doesn't hug your body.” I snorted before Tom popped up. “He’s right, you should try on a figure fitting dress, it’ll drive Aidan crazy. So try one on.” I laughed and walked back into the fitting room, lucky for me the helper had picked out this beautiful blue lace dress, I slipped it on, automatically I thought this could be the one, it was a hugging all of my curves, it had a nice show of cleavage, it even lifted them, but it wasn’t tight around my legs where I couldn’t dance in it, but to be sure I started to do some dance movements, it give enough room to dance a bit but not much to my liking, but I was thinking of getting another dress for the reception so I could work with this.

I headed out of the dressing room and to my group of people to say yes to the dress or say no to the dress. There was a mixture of expressions, I gnawed at my bottom lip in a pile of nerves. “I like that it’s more form fitting and it makes your breasts look beautiful but I don’t think it’s you, but it looks good.” I heard my mom say and I looked around to see everyone nodding their heads. I walked back into the dressing room, I heard a knock which opened to reveal Emmy with a white dress that has layers of sapphire in between the white, it looks form fitting but loose enough to walk, she pops in before smiling at me. “I thought you should try this one on, it’s screaming at you to try it on.” She said handing me the dress and left, I looked at the helper and nodded my head, she helped me in the dress, and looking at myself in the mirror my eyes glossed over. This dress hugged my curves, the cleavage was out in center but not too much, there were rhinestones decorating the v-line and there was this beautiful stash that had rhinestones on it as well and the stash was the sapphire color in the layers. I walked out to watch to see everyone’s face was unreadable, I saw tears in mom’s eyes, and everyone else's face was surprised. I stepped up and looked at myself once more, I knew this was the dress, I looked at everyone who nodded their heads. “You look so beautiful.” Tom said, Robert was nodding his head, Elliot was clapping quietly, David who was quiet the whole time whistled and gave me a thumbs up, and Emmy was staring at me in wonder. “I hope you have a back up dress so Aidan doesn’t rip it to get you out of it on the honeymoon.” David said, causing everyone to just laugh because we knew he was true. “Actually, he’d try to fuck you in a bathroom because if I was him because you look so stunning, there’s enough cleavage showing to drive him crazy but modest enough that you won’t pop out if you move, and the dress is hugging your curves perfectly.” Robert said, causing me to roll my eyes playfully, but I heard an “ow” from him since my mom hit him in the back of the head.

I walked to the dressing room to get out of the dress and set up my fitting appointments, I smiled and walked out before I saw everyone, I arched a brow when I saw them hauled up in a circle. “Guys?” I asked and they immediately broke up. They all had mischief looks on their faces well beside my mom who just smiled at me, I walked over to see what they were looking at and saw it was a crown that matches my dress. “Wait, what’s going on?” I asked and Robert put it on my head. “Yes this will do. You’re going to look like a queen.” He said but I shook my head. “I can’t. I don’t want to spend too much.” I said but Elliot snicker. “We’d be paying for it as a thank you gift for making our little aidan the happiest guy in the world.” Emmy said, making my tears fall freely down my cheeks. “Thank you.” I muttered and we all left the dress shop and went to the bar to get wasted.

It’s been about ten weeks since me and Aidan had decided to stop using protection and so far no signs of pregnancy symptoms, I don’t know if that’s good or bad, I mean it could be bad because we’re both still so young but good because it means I’d have a little family of my own again. I rolled over to feel the bedsheets were cold, I sat up and look around, I grabbed my phone to see texts from the umbrella casts saying I should check on Aidan because apparently he’s live and he looking sad and about to cry, I jump up and out of bed quickly, pulling one of his shirt on me not stopping to put anything else on and rushes towards his home stadio, when I heard his strumming, I pushed open the door and quietly shutting it, I know I didn’t need to be quiet anymore since his fans had learn about us. I was hungry but Aidan is my top priority, I walked behind his chair and turn his chair around so he could face me, he looked at me with a shock expression, and I saw the faint tears on his cheeks, I frowned and cup his cheeks, rubbing his cheeks with my thumbs, I look at the chat and saw a lot of people saying it’s good I was here, some were hurtful commenting on how he deserved to be left alone, that he wasn’t that talented, that he should have stayed in the past of Nickelodeon and never acted again, I shook my head and went back to my boyfriend, straddling his lap so I could look him in the eyes. “Baby boy, what’s wrong? Do you want to end your live stream and we can talk?” I asked but he shook his head, I sigh and pressed my lips to his forehead and made him look at me, I ran my thumb over his bottom lip. “I want to live stream, but can you stay with me?” His voice cracked causing me to frown and shook my head. “No, you’re ending it and coming back to bed so we can cuddle and you can tell me what’s got you in your feels.” I said, he just sighs defeated and turns us around, I switch so I was facing the camera. “Look like I need to get off guys, girlfriend says I need to take a break, I’ll see you guys later.” He ended the live and I switch so I was facing him, he placed one hand on my lower back and one under my ass, he made sure his grip on me was tight enough where I won’t fall when he stood up, walking us back to the bedroom, he fall backwards on the bed causing me to land on him, if this wasn’t so serious I would have laughed. I cupped his cheek and ran my thumb over it.

“Now, talk to me my love, what’s wrong?” I asked as he sighs and he moved so we could cuddle, and I knew there was something seriously wrong when he put his head on my chest where my heart is, I ran a hand through his hair, scratching his scalp as I runs my hand through his hair, I soon feel wetness on the shirt I was wearing, I immediately grew more worried, I push his head off of my chest so I could see his face and as I suspected he was crying, I started wipe them away from his eyes, I lean in pressing my forehead against his. “Please talk to me Aidan.” I said softly and cupped his cheek but he pulled away and placed his head back over my heart. “People were saying that I'm a horrible boyfriend, that I can’t give you what you need because I’m always busy, that I’m not ever going to be a great dad because I’m too young and don’t know the workings of being an actual dad.” He sob out, I sigh and run my hand down his back, I pull him up so we’re face to face, I pressed tender kisses to both of his eyelids, I then kissed his lips and felt him sigh and kissed me back, I pulled back to look in his eyes. “You’re a wonderful boyfriend, you always make time for me, and you’ll be a fantastic dad, I know it, I promise you, they’re just being hateful for no reason.” I said softly and run my fingers over his spine, feeling him shiver I smiled and rolled us over so I was on top of him, he arched a brow but he was smiling, I placed my hand on his side, running my finger over it causing him to shiver and squirm underneath me, I smirk and begun to tickled him under his shirt, hearing his laughter filled me with joy. “Stop it.” “No.” “If you don’t stop I’ll punish you.” I laughed and kept tickling him, he smirked and pressed his hips against my hips causing a shiver run down my back, I glared at him and dug my fingers in his sides and kept tickling him, I don’t know why but I was getting turn on by his skin underneath my fingers. I just chuck it up to feel him squirm underneath me, but next thing I know I felt his hips brushing my core causing me to moan, which made his eyes turn dark with lust.

“Go ahead princess.” He said and I grabbed his member pumping it slowly causing me to get a sigh from the man of my dreams, I kept pumping him until he was growling and tangled his hand in my hair and pressed it against his member making me giggle by how inpatient he was being, I pulled away which he allowed but still got my hair fisted in his hand. I pressed kisses up and down his member, than I put the head of his member in my mouth, sucking on it before pulling away and kitten lick it, I felt a harsh tug on my hair and I went back to putting him in my mouth as much as I could but deeming it wasn’t enough so I relaxed my throat, I went down more engulfing all of him in my mouth and by the moan he let out he was enjoying it. I pull up then go back down all the way, my eyes started to tear up from me deep throating him, but good thing I don’t have a gag reflex, I begin to pop my head in a slow manner, making him groan and tugged harsher on my hair, I sped up my movements. Making sure to let him go down to the back of my throat, I kept this going until I felt him twitch in my mouth, I pull off and licked his shaft before sucking on his head before taking him back in but not deep throating, since I needed to be careful so it won’t hurt to talk afterwards, I pop my head up and down using my hand to pump what I didn’t take in, after two more minutes I felt him shoot his seeds down my throat, I pop off swallowing the cum, I licked him clean before looking at him with innocent smile, causing him to snort and placed his hands on my arms; gently pulling me up so I was laying on him, but not wanting to do it again because my body was still on fire I rolled off of him, causing him to whine but as soon my head hits his chest he smiled that perfect smile I haven’t seen since waking up to comfort him. “There’s that smile I love so much.” I said, causing him to laugh and arched a brow. “You did all of this to get me to smile? If so, I might have to be sad more often.” He said in a playful tone, I rolled my eyes. “No, it wasn't part of the plan, I don’t know why but I’m more sensitive so when your hips brushed against me I got needy.” I said truthfully, causing him to look at me confused, I shrugged my shoulders and listened to his heart beat, which was slow and steady. I hum softly, tracing shapes on his clothed chest, I look down to see he was still half naked making me giggle. “What’s so funny princess?” I felt the vibration from him talking, I looked up at him with a faint smile. “I’m not wearing underwear and you’re only in your shirt, I think we need to get dressed, not for going out just for us to lay without our privates being seen by the world.” I said and got up walking over to my dresser and grabbed a pair of underwear and pjs bottoms, slipping them on. I turn to see Aidan pulling his boxers back on and then pulling his shirt off and putting on sweatpants.

“So you’re teasing now?” He asked in a low voice, I shook my head because I couldn’t trust my voice. This is strange, I never reacted like that when he would brush against my core, sure it’d cause me jerk but not moan right away. But I couldn’t focus on my thoughts as he sat up, I moved to sit on his thigh but for some reason I felt my juices pooling in between my thighs. I started to roll my hips against his thigh, I cursed myself for not putting on underwear because his jeans were rubbing against my core and getting ruined. I tried to get off of his thigh but his hands stayed on my hips causing me to whimper, he begin to guide me to rub my core against his thigh, causing me to moan softly and placed my hands over his arms as I felt myself getting wetter, I begin to move quicker as I cry his name and placed my head on his shoulder, sucking roughly on his neck that was exposed skin causing me to have a slapped against my thigh causing me to smirk against his neck and bite down on the bruise, he growled and pressed my core more against his thigh firmly, I moaned and begin to rub against it, for some reason my body was more sensitive so this was getting me closer and closer to my high, but as I was about to hit my high, I was lifted from his lap I whine loudly but that soon ended as I feel him lay down and pull my core over his face, I shiver at the he pressed his lips against my core, licking and sucking on my clit, causing me to shudder as I felt my high coming back, he pressed the pad of his finger against my clit as he stuck his tongue in me, I moan loudly and arched my back as the coil in my stomach started to tighten, I placed my hands in his hair as he removed his finger from my clit but he keep licking and sucking my core, his hands on my hips to keep me still as I tried to squirm from the feeling coil keep tightening, I tugged on his hair causing him to growled and suck as harsh as he could on my clit, which made me lose control over my orgasm, I felt myself cum so hard my body was shaking, I went limp, resting against the headboard, I tried to get off him but one I was still being held in place as he was licking me clean, after a minute he let me go, I move off of the bed before seeing a tent in his pants, I walked over to him and unbuckled his belt and pull them down along with his boxers.

I jumped on the bed and patted the spot next to me. He laughed and got on the bed, I pushed him down and laid my head on his chest. Tracing random shapes on it, feeling his muscles relax, I smiled and curled into him, closing my eyes but as soon as I was comfortable I felt my stomach turn over and I rushes off of the bed and to the bathroom, I pulled my hair out of the way right away as the vomit come out from my mouth, I felt someone holding onto my hair with one hand and one hand rubbing my back. I finished throwing up and Aidan moved to get me a washcloth to wipe my face, I slid down against the toilet and sighed softly. I hated it because it was nothing but burning acid. I look at him with a sad smile, I licked my lips before gagging at the taste of vomit on my lips, I grabbed the wet cloth and wipe my face clean from the vomit, shakily stood up and walked towards the sink, grabbing my toothbrush and begin to brush my teeth to get rid of the taste, I used the mouth wash to rinse any left over tasted I look at Aidan who was staring at me worrily, I shook my head and held my hand up for him to pick me up, he laughs and picked me up, I wrapped myself around him, he walked to the kitchen before setting me on the counter, grabbing a pot and tomato soup, bread and two slices of cheese, I smiled at the thoughtfulness he was giving me. I lean back before humming out softly. “I love you big boy.” I said and he turned to me, smiling and began to cook. “I love you too, my baby.” He said as he heated up the soup, I slid off of the counter but was put back on it, causing me to laugh and laid back so my head was on the counter, I felt my skin being touch, I smiled and look up at him, he had his hand on my stomach, I laugh softly and placed my hand over his. I leaned back down before I felt the warmth on my stomach disappear, I sat up when I heard him hum, I looked at him and smiled softly.

He hand me my food and started to eat it as I watch him make himself food, I hums softly and finished my food, I hopped off of the counter before washing everything when he was done, I looked at him and grabbed his hand, pulling him towards the living room, I pushed him down and lay my head on his lap, turning on a random movie, I felt him massage my scalp, I smiled looking up at him as I saw a smile on his lips, my heart started to picked up its beating, every time I see that smile it gives me butterflies, I reach up and trace his lip and lean up, giving him a tender kiss, I pulled away and laid back down before humming out. I closed my eyes and curled into him before licking my lips as I listened to the movie. I began to doze before I was shaking awake once more. “Are you alright? Are you tired again?” I heard Aidan’s voice questioned, I nodded my head and sighs. “Do you want to take a nap?” I shook my head and sat up. “I actually want to start a YouTube channel, a twitch, make a public Instagram, twitter, TikTok, Facebook and maybe a patron. Can you help me?” I asked him and his eyes lit up. “That’s the spirit, yes we can start those up!” He said excitedly, causing me to laugh. After about two hours of setting everything up, I smiled before looking at him. “Can you shout me out so whoever our fans are can find me?” I asked with mock innocence, causing him to laugh and pulled out his phone and pulled me into the frame. I poked his cheek causing him to smile big and took the picture before spreading it everywhere, and as soon as it was posted my phone started to blow up. I looked down at it and saw I already have a thousand followers. I laughed and placed my head on his shoulder as I watched the movie, then I heard my phone go off with the ringtone for my mom, I picked it up and pressed it to my ear but regretted it when I heard screaming. “Mom, calm down, what’s wrong?” I asked before I heard an aggressive sigh. “What’s today?” She asked and I looked at my phone. “Tuesday?” I asked, causing a sigh. “You really forgot?” Then it hit me, it was the annual family together. “Fuck! I’ll be there in like 30 minutes.” I said and got up. “Hurry, they are about to start to get hungry and you know your dad likes doing things.” I heard the line go dead. I looked at Aidan and pulled him up and pulled him into the bedroom, he looked at me confused. “I have this to get together with my family, and you’re coming so you can officially meet my family.” I said I stripped down fully but then I felt arms encircled around them. “Remember one of the subjects for going out?'' I scrunch my face up before it hits me, I blushed darkly, then I remember we talking about me having a vibrator for underwear to be put in the underwear I would wear and have Aidan have full control over it. I started to get turned on by the thought. “Yes, I remember.” I said as I felt his hand go down and in my underwear, chuckled softly and he teased my clit. “I say, it’s time to give it a go.” Aidan said, causing me to hiss out. “No, they’ll never leave us alone about it.” I said but he pressed his finger against my clit causing me to moan in pure bliss as I feel liquid leak onto my underwear. Seriously why do I have such a high sex drive? “I’m in charge here, so we’re doing it, or do I need to punish you for denying this, since it was your idea.” He whispered in my ear as he slipped a finger in me causing me to whine and nodded my head. “Fine, I’ll do it. But if this brings up in the future I’ll pull a five and squeeze shampoo in your eyes.” I growl but cry out as he curls his finger against my g-spot then pulls away from me, licking his finger clean. “I hate you.” I hissed out, causing him to smirk. “No you don’t.” He said and I rolled my eyes playfully, but thought of me wearing a vibrator and letting him control the intensity got me already needy, so deciding seeing as I’d probably be fucked no matter what with or without the vibrator he’ll find a way to get me so needy that I cave in. “Fine, we can do your stupid idea.” I said, as I was about to get the vibrating

bullet and the remote, he stopped me with a smirk and pushed a box to me.

I arched my brow and opened it up to see vibrating underwear, I gulped back and removed my underwear to put them on, they were surprisingly comfortable. I gasped when I felt Aidan turn them on the lowest setting. I gulped and looked at him. “Asshole.” I said when he turned them off and just smirked. “I’m not an asshole. I was just testing them out to see if you can feel it on the lowest setting which you can now let’s get dressed.” He said and dug through the closet and pulled out a three piece suit, one he wore in season three of The Umbrella Academy. I gulped the lump in my throat. He was so sexy wearing that suit, I shook my head and got dressed in a little number, it was a black lace off the shoulder dress that’s come to my thighs, I put on my black heels, I walked towards the bathroom and used dry shampoo to make it look like it was wash, I put on a bold eye makeup look with a nude lipstick, I walked back inside to get the choker that Aidan gotten me. It was a black velvet choker with chains and a heart shaped lock in the middle. I teased him saying that he was collaring me and I never got an answer. I put in my sailor moon earrings that had a cuff on one of them. I grabbed my clutch making sure my ID was in there and my wallet, I put my hair up in a braid.

I walked towards the door to see Aidan was already there. He looked me up and down before growling and pointing to the bedroom. “Go change. People are going to look and think they can talk to you and get lucky.” He said in that low tone that got me wet, but shook my head and smirked. “No need to be jealous, it’s just family with their partners. So no I won’t change and we’re late so let’s go.” I pushed by him and into the car, he stubbornly got in and drove to the restaurant that my brother’s fiancé own. I looked out the window before I felt a hand on my thigh squeezing it more tightly than loosely. “What’s wrong?” I asked before I noticed the worried look when it hit me. He never met my family, the only meeting that had happened was when he took me to his parents because they’ve been asking him to come over. I grabbed his hand and smiled softly. “Aidan, they’ll love you. You’re going to be just fine.” He sighed and looked at me when we got to a stop light. “But what if they think I’m going to be too busy to actually be the boyfriend that you need?” He asked which made me remember the conversation earlier today. “Hey, don’t say that. You’ll be the favorite of my family. Just be yourself, just not the asshole who made me wear these panties.” I said the last part jokingly which seemed to work because he was smiling, we talked until we got to the restaurant. I got out and grabbed Aidan’s hand before pulling out my phone and took a picture of us before posting it on Instagram with the caption “meeting the family for the first time, he’s nervous but they’ll love him” and then I tagged him and posted it. I pulled him into the restaurant and got to the table with my family.

“Y/n! There you are, come on we— who is this?” My dad said as he got up and walked over to us and looked at Aidan up and down. I giggle and pull Aidan into my side. “He’s my boyfriend. For a couple of three weeks now.” I said and my father’s face dropped and looked like he was hurt that he didn’t know I had a boyfriend. “Why didn’t you tell us?” He asked, making me sigh and give him a sheepish smile. “Well he’s famous, we wanted our relationship to be a secret from the public, I wanted to tell you but at the time it wasn’t right.” I said, causing my sister’s mouth to fall, as she squeaked and ran to us. “You’re Aidan Gallagher!” She screams, causing me to point at my sister. “See. Now why didn't I tell you?” I laugh as I watch my sister gush to him on how big a fan she is, I slipped from him and sat in the empty chair next to the end. The next thing I felt was a vibration of the underwear, causing me to silently gasp. I looked at Aidan with a glare, smiling innocently at me before going back to my sister who he talked to before my mom cleared her throat. “Guys, let's sit down and get to know the new addition to the family.” Causing me to blush at my mom words, I never thought my mom would say that, but everyone sat down, Aidan sat next to me with a goofy grin on his lips, I smiled and placed my hand on his thigh, causing him to smile wider, I giggle and look at everyone, the vibration in between my legs still going but it was mostly dull. “So Aidan, how did you meet my daughter?” I heard my mom ask, causing me to turn to him. “We met at Robert’s party, it was surprising to know that she’s his goddaughter.” He said before subtly turning the level so it was on level three, causing me to hissed silently and smirk, moving my hand up his thigh which he gave me glare. If he was going to play around I’m going to do the same. “Oh! You’re friends with Rob?” I heard my dad ask, causing everyone to look surprised. “Yes, he’s my co-star on The Umbrella Academy.” I hums happily as they begin to talk stories with Robert in them. I slid my hand up even more until it was high enough where if I moved an inch up, I’d be touching his member. I kept a smirk hidden when I saw him trying to not react, I turns to face my mom and strike up conversation with her as I touch him, palming him through his pants for revenge for turning it up, but that seem like a bad idea because the annoying vibration turn into a unavoidable session,I clench my jaw and palm him faster to see what he does. “Y/n are you okay? You seem to be distracted.” I heard my mom say, I just smiled and nodded my head but a gasp left my throat when I felt an even more intense feeling hit me.

“I think I need to go to the bathroom.” I said and got up, walking towards the bathroom, as soon I got into the bathroom, I lean against the sink, trying to calm down, but I heard the door open and closed than being locked, I looked up to see Aidan there with a smirk, he walked towards me and trapped me against the sink, I gulped before he picked me up and put me on the sink, he pull down the underwear and licked his lips, he pull them fully down and get on his knees and begin to lick a long strip against my core. I moan and tangled my hand in his hair, he slipped a finger in me, making a squishy sound as I bit my lip to make sure no lewd noises come from my lips, I leans my head against the mirror and tug on his hair causing him to moan against my core which vibrates through me, making me more needy, I buck my hips against his face, causing him to placed his hands on my hips and hold them down, I arched my back as I feel my orgasm building up, as I was about to get my high he pulled away and licked his lips. I growled at him and tried to pull him towards me but he smirked and pulled away, I whined and wiggle under his stare. “Aidan, please, please fuck me.” I whine out, causing him to slap my thigh. “That’s not my name princess. Maybe I should leave you high and wet.” He said and began to move away. “Daddy please I’ll be a good girl.” I whimpered and he nodded his head before undoing his belt and pants, he pushed them down enough to free himself. He pulled me off of the sink and pushed me against the wall, having me wrap my legs around him as he slid himself in me, causing me to mewled and shiver. He started a go at a slow pace, I scratched at his back earning me a sharp thrust, I arched my back and grind against him, wanting more. “Patience is a good idea if you want to cum for teasing me, so I suggest you stop moving. ” I heard him grunt out. I stopped moving and clinging onto the sink as I felt a familiar knot start to form in my stomach, he must have felt it because his finger was on my clit and he started to rub at a harsh pace, causing me to bite back a moan so no one could hear us. I arched my back when I felt him pinch my clit and my mouth hung open, I closed my eyes and gripped his arms as he moved faster and deeper in me. “A-Aidan I won’t last long, please let me cum!” I cried out as he snapped his hip, he looked like he was thinking of I should. “I’ve been a good girl, please baby?” I whimper and see his eyes change from domination to passion, he softens his thrusts and I moan lowly as I feel the knot snapped. I buried my face in his chest to hide the moan, after a few minutes I felt him release in me. He pulled out and grabbed paper towels and wet them before cleaning me up and then he tucked himself back in and straightened up. I did the same thing before looking at the underwear. “Do we have to use that again or can I just wear it as underwear until we go home so I can get in real underwear?” I asked, causing him to laugh. “Yes, I’ll behave and not use it on you anymore. I’m surprised you lasted this long.” He commented, causing me to slap his arm. “Oh shut up. Go out first, don’t want anyone to think we just fuck in public.” I said, causing him to nod his head and disappear after unlocking. I sighed and fixed my hair, fixing my dress, I walked back to the table and sat down next to Aidan. I grabbed his hand that was on the table, I leaned against him and smiled. I looked around before I saw a knowing look from my brother’s wife. I glared at her playfully. “So Aidan, I hope you’ve been taking care of my baby girl. After Elvira’s betrayal towards y/n, mind you on the day of their anniversary where y/n was going to propose, what’s your intentions with my daughter?” I heard my dad ask, causing me to look down angrily. I hadn’t noticed the tears until I felt a hand wipe the tears away, I looked up to see Aidan giving me a concerned face. “Aidan, are you going to answer me?” My dad said so Aidan broke eye contact so he could face my dad. “I have the intention of marrying her, when the time is right. When it’s

When it’s perfect. I don’t blame on hurting her. I want her. She’s my soulmate obviously.” He said looking straight at me when he finished. I smiled and leaned over and kissed his cheek. “Soulmates? So you guys met in a conjoint dream?” My mom asked, making me smile and nodded my head. “Yes, we kept meeting in the dreams until Bella’s godfather was holding a party and we met there for real, and we’ve been seeing each other ever since.” I said making my mom and sisters squeal and my dad nod his head.

“Good, I know now that you won’t hurt my daughter. But if you do, I know how to ruin you.” My brother said, making me roll my eyes. “No, you’re not going to ruin him. He’s a good guy. If you do anything I will kill you myself.” I threatened and squeezed Aidan’s hand. We ordered and talked about little things here and there. But the good air was shattered by a voice, that one sickenly overly sweet voice that gives my guts turning. “Oh my god! Y/n! It is you! You look stunning.” Said the owner to the voice. I turned in my seat to see them, and I knew I was right. It was Elvira, she was wearing a red velvet dress that hugged her curves all perfectly, with a necklace hanging above her breasts, and a ring. Everything that I had bought her. “What are you doing here you little slut?” My brother growled out but I shot him a pointed look and he slumped down. “I’m here to join you guys since it’s family night, no?” She asked, causing me to snort, I stood up and let Aidan’s hand, I walked up to her and grabbed her hand as she smiled fondly at me but I took the ring off of her ring finger and glared at her. “You don’t deserve this ring, how did you even find it? I hid it where you wouldn’t have looked, this engagement ring is going to be given to Bella since she loved it since you don’t deserve it.” I seethed out and placed the ring in my pocket. She frowned and reached for my hand but I slapped it away. “Come on baby, stop playing this mad at me game, you know you missed me.” She said and tried to touch me again. I slapped her hand away again. “It’s not a game. It wasn’t a game when I said you’re not going to be in my life again.” I hissed out and she just smirked tracing my jawline. I pushed her away and glared at her. Seeing her here acting as if she was still part of the family was making me sick. I grabbed my glass of water and threw it on her. “Hey! This is expensive! You know how much I love this dress that YOU got me. Shouldn’t you care? I know you still love me.” She said as she stepped as close as she could. She leans in but a hand gets in the middle of our faces which makes me and Elvira look at the owner of it which was Aidan and I sigh out loud. “I think it’s time for you to leave. You’re not part of the family and you’re not her partner anymore. So just leave.” He said calmly which sent a shiver down my spine because it reminded me of Five. I chewed on my bottom lip before she smacked his hand away from our face. “Who the hell are you? You’re not part of this family so you shouldn’t even be here.” She said which made me laugh when pushed her away. “Oh he’s very much part of this family. He’s my boyfriend. My soulmate, so now get gone before I knock your sorry excuse of an ass out and you need to be taken to the er.” I seethed out and she rolled her eyes. “I’ll get you back, don’t make a mistake about that.” After that I began to fall to my knees but I was caught and pulled against their chest and sobs escaped my lips, seeing her again brought up all those painful memories. I remember the day I met Elvira, we were in line for check out when I saw her putting up a Nickelback t-shirt, I remember talking to her as we walked towards the parking lot, her giving me her phone number, I remember the first date, she took me to amusement park, we rode a lot of rides, we even did the tunnel of love, it was stupid but perfect at the time, we were inseparable, always going everywhere with each other, we talked about our futures, how she wanted to have kids, wanted to get married, on the fourth anniversary I told her ring shopping I had her pick out two rings, one I bought right there but secretly buying the other one when she wasn’t looking. I put the box in my purse, I remember grabbing her hand and going to more stores. I remember our first time, it was sensual, romantic, passionate, and full of love, it was the worst decision to let her take my virginity, okay technically she never used a strap on so my “cherry” wasn’t pop, but we still had sex, I remember her taking me to the wedding dress shop so we could plan our wedding

I even ask her. I remember the way she looked while riding that’s fucking guy’s dick, I felt throw up coming up my throat from all the emotions that’s I pushed Aidan off of me and I ran towards the bathroom, I just barely got to a stall and threw up everything I ate.

I felt a hand on my back and holding back my hair, I kept throwing up. “Shh, you’re okay, she’s gone. You’re not in danger of her trying anything.” I heard my sister whisper in my ear, I finished dumping everything out, I leaned back as my sister held my hair until I was fully away from the toilet before grabbing a towel and wet it, she handed me it, I smiled gratefully to her. I wiped my mouth before throwing it away, I tried to stand but I fell over, I hissed out, I took my heels off and stood up shakily, I felt my sister hold on to my arm, helping me up and to the door. We open it to see Aidan there. “Here, I’ll take over, I paid for our food. I think it’s time that we head out, I don’t want a short meeting but she’ll need to rest after all the things that happen.” I was too dazed to form words or to even stand, Aidan put his arm around me and when my sister let go of me, I fell against him making him frown, he licked me up and walked towards the table. “I’m sorry guys, but it looks like we need to leave, she’s too out of it to stay here.” I heard Aidan say, I opened my mouth but nothing came out, I smiled weakly at my family who gave me worried faces, and I know why, the first week I was harming myself. Razors, knives, glass, anything sharp to cause me to bleed. I have scars all over my wrists, I’m surprised Aidan hasn’t noticed them. “Aidan, we need to talk to you, please let one of her brothers take her to your car, this is important. You need to watch for what we need to tell you.” Aidan looked down at me, I could barely see him since my eyes were blurring, I know it from the tears about the truth about to come out. “Yeah, sure, here be careful.” He said as my brother took me and walked out towards the exit. “You know they’re going to tell him about your suicide attempt after finding out about Elvira, than your self harming thing when you got released.” I heard my brother say as he stopped at the car and opened the car door, placing me in, he buckled me in, I nodded my head. “I know. . . You can go now, I’m going to take a nap.” I crooked out, my brother nodded his head and shut the door, I leaned my head against the window and fell asleep. After what seemed like twenty minutes, I heard the car door open, stirring me awake. I look over to find Aidan there with a solemn look on his face. I gulped as he turned on the car and began to drive away from the restaurant. “Y/n, would you ever going to tell me about when you caught Elvira cheating you tried to kill yourself? That after the failed attempt that you had self harm for five months?” He asked with a sad tone of voice, his face contorted into a pain one. “No. . . It wasn’t important, I mean, you never noticed and I didn’t want you to think I was weak.” I muttered out holding back my tears, I felt a hand on mine, I looked over at him to see him holding my hand. Once we got to a stop light, he looked me in the eyes. “I wouldn’t think of you as weak, I would have understood. I’m just hurt you didn’t tell me.” He said and with that the tears started to flow down my cheeks. “I’m sorry, please don’t leave me, I didn’t mean to hide it, it’s just something I’m not keen on remembering.” I muttered and looked away, I felt the car move but still feeling Aidan’s hand on mine. “I’m not going to leave you just because you went into a deep dark place. But I’m here now, so I need you to tell me when you feel like going back down the road again, okay?” He asked as I sigh, knowing there wasn’t any use in saying no. “Okay. I promised.” I muttered again as I closed my eyes, I guessed I had fallen asleep because I felt myself being picked up and carried towards somewhere. I opened my eyes to see we had arrived at our home, I tried to move but Aidan held onto me tightly. “Shh, we’re home, we’re going to get cleaned, then go to sleep, it looks like you need to sleep.” He said, nodded my head, he sat me on the sink as he got my shower ready for me. He helped me undressed, he grabbed my arm and finally saw the scars that littered my arm, he sighs and kissed all of them,

he help me into the shower and begin to wash my hair, than my body, he help me out, he begin to do my skin routine, he got in the shower and got out only ten minutes. He picked me up and walked out towards the bedroom, he got me dressed and himself dressed, I curl into the bed, closing my eyes, he got into the bed and pull me against his chest, I sighs softly and cried silently to myself until I passed out, what I didn’t know was Aidan had felt me crying but didn’t say anything. He rubbed my arms as I kept dozing off deeper. The last thing I heard was him saying he will take care of me.

Your Top 5 love interests in Barbie movies?

Oof.

Listen. Looking back on it, my reaction to Barbie films should have been yet another hint of how little men interest me. I. Barely remember these guys lmfao. And I love the films that lack a love interest in big part BECAUSE they lack it lol. But I'll try!!

Aidan (Barbie and the Magic of Pegasus). Yet another area where this film wins, sns. I don't remember being ~swept by the romance itself (like I said: this movies should've been a sign xD), but I liked that he had a more resonant story than most Kens. The whole thing where he'd fucked up big time and ran away because he didn't dare to face his parents hit close lmfao.

Eric (Barbie in the Nutcracker). Like I said, that film was my first Barbie and fills me with nostalgia. And I like that he was another imperfect LI, in comparison to most of the rest.

Nalu (Barbie Fairytopia, Mermaidia). This is cheating a bit because I consider him Nori's LI and not Elina's, but whatever. They were cute, and I appreciate that they were a supporting pairing and Elina was romance-free (though that didn't stop me from shipping Elina/Nori lol).

I remember liking Julian and Dominic (Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper). They were very simp-y and had their competent moments. I approve. They get positions #4 and #5 lol.

Some changes for Broadway from the previous Goodman Theater production. Excellent performances from the entire cast with clear picture and great sound throughout; very good video. 2 DVDs. A War Paint - Broadway - April 29, 2017 (Matinee) (NYCG8R's master) FORMAT: VOB (with smalls) (SD) CAST: Patti LuPone (Helena Rubinstein), Christine Ebersole (Elizabeth Arden), John Dossett (Tommy Lewis), Douglas Sills (Harry Fleming) NOTES: The master gets caught during Face to Face.

The theater was really full tonight so there are a good number of heads in this video, but they are worked around to the best of my ability. This is a super small theater (less than 160 seats) and at times the cast members were definitely singing to the camera and honestly giving their best performances because of it. All of the things on the upper level (the bathroom, the pathway, and the kitchen) are captured perfectly, and the zooms on the lower level (the living room and bench) look good as well. Obviously because this is a murder mystery kind of show the lighting can get a little bit dark, but my camera handles low lighting incredibly well.

Very well captured with no dropouts, no obstruction, and no washout. The stage is filmed directly most of the time; the screens are occasionally filmed, usually when the actors are not onstage.

2019 In TV - My Top 10 Shows

This past year may have sucked balls in a lot of ways, but we certainly never got short-changed when it came to our TV. There was an absolute WEALTH of truly cracking TV around, both on regular networks and on the various on-demand platforms, and so here is my pick of the best, my absolute favourites of 2019.

10. WATCHMEN

Lost co-creator Damon Lindelof brings us a blinding sequel to comic book legend Alan Moore’s legendary graphic novel with a delightfully trippy, ruthlessly efficient rug-puller that seems pretty tailor-made for HBO. Old faces return in interesting ways, while there are some cracking new “masks” on offer, particularly Regina King’s Sister Night and the always-brilliant Tim Blake Nelson as morally complex antihero Looking Glass (in some ways very much the show’s own answer to Rorschach). It never goes where you expect it to go, and refuses to give easy answers to the questions it raises, effortlessly paving the way for more next year ...

9. THE BOYS

Amazon offers up its own edgy, thoroughly adult superhero property with this darkly funny antiheroic gem based on the cult Garth Ennis comic, expertly adapted by Supernatural creator Eric Kripke. Karl Urban dominates as Billy Butcher, the foul-mouthed, morally bankrupt “leader” of a makeshift crew of mercenaries, hitmen and psycho killers devoted to “taking care of” superheroes when they inevitably go bad. Season 1 ultimately serves as an origin story, showing how the team come together, laying quality groundwork for the incoming sophomore tour that promises to open the already fascinating world out significantly.

8. PREACHER (SEASON 4)

More Garth Ennis, namely this blinder of a closing season for AMC’s consistently impressive adaptation of his best known series for Vertigo comics. Surprisingly epic, deliciously subversive and constantly, darkly hilarious, this thoroughly non-PC series from showrunners Sam Catlin, Evan Goldberg and Seth Rogen (yes! I Know!) certainly went out on a high note, providing its loyal followers with perfectly-pitched bow-outs and sometimes heartbreaking goodbyes for all its players, especially its dynamite leads, Dominic Cooper, Ruth Negga and, in particular, Joe Gilgun as unapologetic bad boy vampire Cassidy. A worthy end to one of my all-time favourite TV shows.

7. THE WITCHER

While it’s clearly taken its look from the wildly successful video games, Netflix’s second most ambitious long-form offering of the year takes its lead from the fantasy book series by Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski that started it all. With its somewhat episodic set-up and decidedly twisted narrative timelines, it take a few chapters to get the hang of it, but there’s plenty to draw you in, from the exotic world-building to the frenetic action and compelling collection of richly crafted characters. Henry Cavill is the titular hero, lovably grouchy mutant monster-hunter Geralt of Rivia, but the real scene-stealer is co-star Anya Chalotra as roguishly self-serving mage Yennefer of Vengenberg.

6. CARNIVAL ROW

One of the year’s two big sleeper hit TV surprises for me was this inventively offbeat allegorical Amazon fantasy series from The 4400 creator René Echevarria and screenwriter Travis Beacham. Orlando Bloom and Cara Delevigne are the star-crossed lovers at the heart of this intriguingly dark and dirty murder mystery thriller set in Victorian London-esque city-state the Burgue, in which humans struggle to co-exist alongside a struggling disenfranchised underclass of fae (fairies, fawns, centaurs and the like). The racial turmoil undertones are writ large throughout, but this is far more well-written and lavishly appointed than you might expect on first glance, and almost ridiculously addictive viewing.

5. LOVE, DEATH + ROBOTS

My other big TV surprise was this wonderfully bizarre sci-fi anthology series of animated shorts from Netflix, mostly adapted from an eclectic selection of short stories from a wide range of top-notch literary talent including Peter F. Hamilton, John Scalzi, Marko Kloos and Alastair Reynolds (a particular favourite of mine). As you’d expect from the brainchild of Deadpool director Tim Miller and producer David Fincher, this is edgy, leftfield stuff, frequently ultra-violent and decidedly adult, and the wildly varied nature of the material on offer makes for a decidedly uneven tone, but there are some absolute gems on offer here, my favourite being Suits, an enjoyably simple tale of salt-of-the-earth farmers on an alien world utilising clunky mech suits to protect their settlement from rampaging giant xeno-bugs.

4. THE DARK CRYSTAL: AGE OF RESISTANCE

The show with the biggest cinematic wow factor in 2019 had to be this long-awaited prequel series to Jim Henson’s classic fantasy movie masterpiece, created for Netflix by, of all people, Louis Leterrier (yes, the director of The Transporter, Now You See Me and Clash of the Titans, if you can believe it). The technology may have evolved in leaps and bounds, but there’s a wonderfully old school vibe in the delightfully physical puppet effects used to bring the fantastical world of Thra and its denizens to life, so that it truly does feel like it’s based in the same world as the film. This was EASILY the most visually arresting show of 2019, packed with exquisite character, creature and set design that perfectly complements the awesome work done by Henson and Brian Froud on the original, while the writers have created a darkly rich narrative tapestry that makes Thra seem a more dangerous place than ever.

3. THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY

I was a HUGE fan of My Chemical Romance frontman Gerard Way’s magnificently oddball alternative superhero comic, so when I learned that Netflix were adapting it I was a little wary because I knew how spectacularly hard it would be for ANY showrunners to get right. Thankfully Steve Blackman (Fargo season 2) and Jeremy Slater (The Exorcist TV series) were the right choice, because this perfectly captured the outsider nature of the characters and their endearingly dysfunctional family dynamic. Ellen Page, Tom Hopper (Black Sails, Merlin), David Castañeda and Emmy Raver-Lampman are all excellent as the more “functional” Hargreeves siblings, but the show is roundly stolen by Misfits star Robert Sheehan and Nicky, Ricky, Dicky & Dawn’s Aidan Gallagher as nihilistic clairvoyant Klaus and the old-man-in-a-child’s-body sociopath known only as Number Five. Consistently surprising and brilliantly bonkers, this was definitely the year’s most wonderfully WEIRD show.

2. STRANGER THINGS (SEASON 3)

Writer-director duo the Duffer Brothers’ ultra-nostalgic 80s-set coming-of-age sci-fi horror series remains the undisputed jewel in Netflix’s long-form crown with this consistently top-drawer third season expertly maintaining the blockbuster-level standards we’ve come to expect. This year the cross-dimensional shenanigans have largely been jettisoned, replaced by a gleefully nasty through-line of icky body horror that would make major influences like David Cronenberg and Stuart Gordon proud, as perennial teenage bad boy Billy Hargrove (the fantastically menacing Dacre Montgomery) becomes the leader of an army of psychic slaves under the control of the Upside Down’s monstrous Mind Flayer. The kids are all brilliant as always, Winona Ryder and David Harbour really get to build on their strong-yet-spiky chemistry, and the show is almost effortlessly stolen by Joe Keery as one-time golden boy Steve Harrington and series-newcomer Maya Hawke as his nerdy new foil Robin Buckley, who were very nearly the cutest couple on TV in 2019. Another gold standard season for a true gold standard show.

1. GOOD OMENS

Sadly, legendary author Terry Pratchett died before he could see the adaptation of one of his most beloved novels (and one of my all-time literary favourites too) see the light of day, but at least his co-author Neil Gaiman was around to bring it to fruition with the aid of seasoned TV director David Mckinnon (Jekyll, Doctor Who, Sherlock), and the end result sure did him proud, perfectly capturing the deeply satirical voice and winningly anarchic, gleefully offbeat and gently subversive humour of the original novel. David Tennant and Michael Sheen could both have been born to play Crowley and Aziraphale, the angel and demon nominally charged with watching over the young Antichrist in preparation for his role in the End Times, even though they would both much rather the world just went on quite happily the way it is, thanks very much. This is about as perfect an adaptation as you can get, the six hour-long episodes giving the surprisingly complex story time to breathe and grow organically, and the result is the most fun I spent in front of my TV this year.

__________________________

December 2, 5am.

I wake up in a gasp, putting my hand on my chest like I could calm it through my ribs. Sweat is soaking my back and when I open my eyes, tears fill them right away.

Every weapon on Dean’s room is flying around us, knives and guns whirling dangerously in the air.

“Y/n…” Dean whispers, strangled by what seems like fear. “Calm down. Look at me baby. Breathe.”

I turn my head to him and see my awful reflexion in his eyes : ember pupils, flying hair.

It’s been like this since we came back from the witches town, my town. I have no control over these powers, I break everything, and I hurt the man I love. Two times, trying to finally be intimate with him again, I burnt his skin, giving in to that volcano raging inside me. I tried to convince him to let me sleep in another room but he won’t let me, and the only time I decided to leave to the donjon because I could feel the storm under my skin, he found me, and carried me to his room. I’m a danger for him.

“Just look at me… You can do this Y/n” he insists and takes my hand in his, risking to get burnt.

He knows I fear to hurt him with all I am, and if he touches me, I fight to regain control twice hard. That’s what happens.

All the weapons fall loudly and a machete lands on his legs, luckily not cutting him. I fall in his arms and he takes a deep breath, stroking my hair.

“I’m s-sorry” I sob but he hushes me.

Sam enters the room with a gun in his hands and a worried look on his face, everybody is on the edge. He looks around, incredulous, but take a step back to leave, probably because Dean told him something with his eyes.

I cling to Dean. I need to feel him, I crave his touches, his kisses. I want him so bad it hurts, feeling him on top of me, feeling him inside of me, it may never happen again and it makes me sick. The two times he tried crawling on top of me were disasters. We need it, both of us, since we fell in love, we never got the chance to be carefree, there was always hurt and danger. I just crave what people in love have : Love making and reckless fuck, touches and lingering kisses, staying in bed to look at each other, letting our body talk… Without pain or phone rings or screams, without my body trying to hurt him.

For now, he stays by my side, but that won’t last, it can’t. I’m a monster, and I’m dangerous… I can’ even give him the relief and intimacy he deserves.

“Stop overthinking” he whispers. “I know you’re doing it again. I love you, we will find a solution… Everything is going to be okay.”

December 2, 7am.

I never fell back asleep, and after a while, I got up to clean the mess I made, but Dean stopped me, saying he will and that I needed to eat something. I protested but, with a light kiss on my lips, he asked me to cook him breakfast. Of course, he just didn’t want me around guns and knives, so I nodded and went to the kitchen.

Here I am, looking at bacon in a frying pan, cooking it without turning on the hotplate. On the kitchen table : four plates, fruits, fresh orange juices and all the things I baked, just not to think about the rage.

“Hi” I here behind me and take a deep breath.

“Hi Aidan” I say without turning around.

“Where is Dean ?” he asks low.

“In his room” I state, still the eyes down on the food.

“We never… We never had the chance to talk, you’re always with him” Aiden states and I close my eyes in a sigh.

I never wanted to talk to him. After Dean dropped my mother and sister in a random town with a threat that if they ever tried to find me, he will kill them, Sam brought Aiden here because he thought he was still in danger with the few witches that survived, and to help him find his boys, and try to find a way to make them whole again.

I agree with the importance of finding the poor little boys an bring them to their amazing father ; but he’s the last person I want to talk to, because he reminds me of my guilt, because he’s my ex-boyfriend, because he will accuse me of lying to him.

“You and Dean…” he says, coming to my side to try and catch my eyes. “You…You were always together” here we go.

I look at him, begging him to shut up with my eyes but he stares back at me.

“Please, talk to me Y/n”

“Listen Aiden…” I finally say. “We were not always together but I fell for him so fast and so hard… I’m sorry for what happened to your family.”

The bacon starts to burn so I put it in a plate, carrying it to the table.

“When you told me you two were not together, you lied” he follows me.

“I did I’m sorry…”

“So when I told you I still loved you with all my heart, you… I just had zero chance, because I… Still do” his hands comes to mine and I flinch a bit.

Dean clears his throat and enters the kitchen, watching Aidan all the time. He comes to me and takes me in his arms, putting a kiss on my hair.

“It smells delicious, baby” he murmurs.

Going to the table, he takes a piece of bacon and moans at the taste of it.

“Wow… You just made bacon even more delicious !”

“I cooked it with magic, it’s magic bacon” I try to joke and he winks at me.

“So Aiden” my love suddenly states with his deep dominant voice. “Are you planning on staying longer ?”

My eyes widen at the harshness of his question.

“I… Sam and I are close to find a spell…”

“I’m sure Sam can help you without you being just here. I will book you a room in town, so if anything happens, you will be the first to know” Dean clears his voice again, stuffing his mouth with bacon without even looking at Aiden.

“I lost my kids and my wife is dead, Dean” my ex-boyfriend frowns.

“You lost a lot and I’m really sorry for that” he finally lifts his darken eyes. “But you won’t take what’s mine to feel better.”

“Take what’s yours…” Aiden gasps. “Y/n is the love of my life. I love her since I am a little boy, and you… You show up and a few weeks later, family, friends, the whole town burnt ! And you made her sick !”

Dean gets up and my heart races.

“Guys…”

“I made her sick ?” Dean groans. “Where were you, Romeo, when she was beaten an humiliated ?”

“Guys… Please.”

“I was there ! Hiding with her behind the school ! Fighting for her when bullies tried to drown her or scare her to death with guns like it could make her powers appear… Oh she didn’t tell you everything did she ? Where were you, huh !”

“Dean… Aiden…”

“I would NEVER have left her be hurt again, unlike you !” Dean walks to Aiden with his fists closed.

“GUYS !” I finally yell and every glasses on the table explode, pieces of glass staying in the air like time froze.

Dean turns to me and lifts his hands in surrender.

“It’s okay Y/n, I’m sorry. Come here” he takes me in his arms and sighs. “Aiden, please, just… leave us a minute.”

When he leaves with a pissed look, I nestle in my love’s arms and put my palms on his chest.

“How can you still love me…” I whisper.

He doesn’t answer right away, taking a long inhale and putting his lips on my head.

“You fell in love with a caring girl, now I’m a monster.”

“Don’t say that baby… You’re far from a monster. I fell in love with you, and you’re still you. We’re working on something that could make you better, okay ? Just hold on…” he lifts my face toward him with two fingers and gently puts his lips on mine. “Can I ask you something ?”

“Anything” I state, hiding a hint of worry.

“Do you still have feelings for Aiden ?”

“What ?” I push on my palms a little to see him better, searching his eyes. “Dean… I love you. Only you. Nothing compares to you and...” I look down, blushing a little. “I miss being close to you, feeling you… I’m sorry I can’t give us that.”

A tender smile appears on his adorable face, wrinkles on the corner of his eyes.

“I’m jealous” he grunts but the grin regains his face quickly.

“That’s…”

Hot.

“Adorable” I say.

“I won’t lie, I want you too baby” he whispers in my ear. “But I want nothing or no one else, so I can wait for your precious moans.”

When he says that, a light twitch betrays him in his pants and I can’t help but bite my lips. I’m craving and it’s making me forget all the rest. Maybe if we went slowly, if it wasn’t about me but him, maybe I could just…

I let my palm rub his firm chest a little lower to his stomach and his face becomes stern. Looking deep in his eyes, I go lower, ignoring the storm underneath my skin by focusing on his skin, his jaw, his lips… and I reach his belt.

“Y/n…” he says between a plea and a moan. “I don’t want you to freak out like last time… you felt guilty for days.”

“Can I just… try ? I feel even worse knowing this is torture for you” I purr and he closes his eyes when my hand rubs his growing erection through the rough fabric of his jeans.

“I’m not…” he swallows hard. “I’m not a teen baby, I can live without sex for a time… And…” he starts panting when I’m able to grab his length. “What I need is just to feel you, you don’t have to worry about...”

“Then feel me” I cut him, biting his neck, grabbing one of his hands to touch my breasts, free from any bra under my t shirt.

“Fuck…” he roughly grabs them one after the other, lost in the feeling of me after all this time.

“We always tried to have sex right away… But maybe if we just…” I open his belt. “Play a little, my powers won’t go all freak…”

His thumb roughly rub my nipple and I moan in his neck, letting my tongue taste his skin when my lips part. I slip my hand in his jeans and feel the hair near to my goal.

“Anyone could walk in here…” he murmurs in my ear, slipping his strong hands under my shirt to grab my boobs.

“I hope not…” I whine against his skin, my hand reaching the base of his cock. “But if they do… We’re not naked.”

His chuckle is cut by a deep growl when I grab his hard length. The fire is raging inside of me, but I’m fighting for control, trying my best to focus on him and not me. His body, his smell, his voice.

When I start pumping his cock slowly, he grabs my ass with his free hand, digging his nails though my sweatpants and I can feel how needing he is. I kiss his jaw, biting here and there, trying to focus on that strength I love so much, the one that makes my wolf get back on his feet even when he’s hurt. I always felt weak and useless, but with him groaning in my arms, I feel like a queen.

My thumb touches the head of his cock and he searches my lips clumsily, with his mouth open in pleasure. I kiss him, and another deep held back moan shakes his chest.

“I d-dreamed that you would do that so many times…” he whispers in my ear. “When you were taking care of me, patching me up with those sweet hands…”

His voice is lower than usual and it sends vibrations deep in my core. I keep pumping and feel his length twitch in my hand, like it had its own will.

“I was fighting this feeling…” he pants. “But even through the pain…I-I wanted you to linger a little more… Ah ! Yeah… I was c-craving your touch… Faster baby.”

I squeeze his cock a little more and go faster, rolling my wrist. He bites his lower lip hard and I close my eyes for a short minute, my own pleasure ruined a little by how careful I am not to lose control.

“You’re so beautiful” I tell him. “Dean, you’re…” I search his eyes and he struggles to stay focused on me, his pupils blown. “You have no idea how gorgeous you are” I catch his lips and he moans.

Here it is, that intimacy I was craving, letting him feel how much I love him. He gives me control of his body, and he lets me worship him with no reserve.

“I need to…” he whines, his head falling on my shoulder, his stomach shaking.

“Go on baby” I encourage him. “I want to feel you come for me.”

With that he grunts and bites my shoulder strongly. The pain makes it slightly more difficult to control the powers going up with my own arousal for a minute, but I manage to stay drowned in the exquisite sounds he makes, muffled on my skin.

After a few more pumps, his cock twitches violently in my hand and his hand under my shirt squeezes my left breast eagerly. He comes in a mix between a growl and a whine, letting me feel every move of his cock, and every drop of his hot cum soaking my hand.

For a second, I fear he could fall because his weight crushes me, but he gains back his balance quickly. His lips find mine while I slow the pumps, carefully trying to collect his cum. He kisses me tenderly, still a little unfocused blessing me with the incredible feeling of a smile in his lazy kiss. Here is that wonderful communion I wanted so bad again.

“I love you” he whispers.

“I need you” I whine.

“Mh… My baby is all needy” he grins, kissing me again.

I let go of his cock and suddenly don’t know what to do with my hand, trying not to accidentally wipe it on our clothes.

“I did it” I smile. “I kept control. But now… I’m all…”

“Wet ?” he proposes, making me blush.

I nod and he chuckles.

Sam suddenly enters the kitchen, making us jump, still in the arms of one another. His hand lets go of my chest to grab my head in a strange protective reflex, and my covered in cum hand finds itself crush between us.

“Are you okay ?” Sam says and Dean starts to laugh so much his head falls on my shoulder again. “Oookay… Not weird at all. Can I show you something ? I think I have a lead to help Y/n.”

“Yeah… Okay Sam” I say, stroking Dean’s head while he keeps chuckling against me.

When Sam leaves, I let go of Dean, looking down at my hand.

“What makes you laugh, dork ?” I ask, seeing the stains on his black t-shirt.

“Just… the timing” he grins. “And I felt something wet on my stomach and you were so cutely panicked” he stares at me. “… And I’m happy.”

I search his eyes, then put three kisses on his lips in a row.

“What do you say I close my flannel to… hide this, we go listen to Sammy’s lead, and I take you to our bedroom to see how I can ease that need without you going all X-men ?”

“Mh… I don’t know how I can listen to Sam honestly” I purr.

“Really Baby ?” he smiles. “Show me.”

Saying that he slips his hand on my sweatpants and rubs my soaked folds through my panties. I gasp and grab his shoulders.

“Oh… I see” he states seriously, his voice way lower than usual. “You badly need me Y/n.”

“Badly” I whine when his fingers slip further, finding my clit and teasing my entrance. “Dean… Dean… Please.”

I’m already close, and I know I could come without his even passing the barrier of my panties. He tugs a little at my panties and the fabric crushes my clit slightly. When he pushes at my entrance, like he wanted to enter me, but was stopped by my underwear, I start to shake.

“But Sam has something important to tell us” he smiles, and I feel my own wetness dripping on my thighs.

The storm is raging and I can feel wind in my hair.

“Baby… focus on me” he says, his thumb finding my little bulge of nerve.

I pant, and whine when the screams deafen me. I try to fight for control but the power blackouts brutally, leaving us in a dark red security light.

He lets go of me and grabs my face in both his hands.

“Y/n, baby. It’s okay…”

“Are you okay ?” Sam asks entering, followed by Aiden.

I can feel tears fill my eyes. I hate those powers, I hate that it worries Dean. And I hate the frustration so much.

Hate. Hate. Hate. This is not good for me. My hands start shaking in anger.

A growl leave my lips, a thunder-like growl, and Sam starts coming closer.

“It’s okay, Sam” Dean states. “You two can go. Go ! I got her, it’s my fault. The power will come back in a minute. “Sweetheart, I love you. It’s okay… Sam found a lead… Look at me baby. Breathe, find a safe place.”

Dean’s laugh, I think. I made him laugh, he said he’s happy.

“I want you so bad” I whine with my normal voice back.

“I know, and you will have all of me soon.”

“This is so unfair…”

“It is baby but we’re together, no one is going to come between us anymore” he states and the power comes back in a loud ventilation sound.

He wraps his arms around me and sighs in relief.

“It’s my fault, I’m sorry, I said we were going to take our time. I’m sorry…” he says and I want to tell him it’s not, but a lump on my throat make me silent.

I cling to him, focusing on his heartbeats I can hear so clearly in my head now. He kisses my forehead and whispers :

“Go to our room, rest, calm. I’ll ask Sam about this lead and when you’re ready, you join us or I’ll explain to you. We will find a way Y/n, I promise.”

I walk to the room with my eyes closed, I can literally feel the walls and steps anyway, and I still can hear my love’s heartbeat. Every cells of my skin are screaming for him, the problem is, I can hear every one of them, and it’s overwhelming. But I will fight, I will be stronger than this for him.

When I enter the bedroom, my heart sinks : Every weapon is gone. Dean even removed the nails holding them, leaving a starry night of little holes on the grey walls.

My love is afraid of me.
