TIME: Around 2:30 in the afternoon, at the tattoo parlor. And then around 3 in the morning, in their home.

WARNINGS: So fucking adorable- and long. But mainly adorable lmao

CHARACTER FEATURES: Avery Chopra, Monroe Oliveira ( @monroephile )

CHARACTER MENTIONS: Kami Desai ( @kamidesai ), Landon Davies ( @davieslandon ), Jenga Brady ( @jenga-brady ), Ellie Robinson ( @ellicfm ), Cleo Lopez, Max Slater (NPC), Luca Huntington (NPC), Liza Perez (NPC)

PROMPT: Averoe goes to the tattoo shop and then, share a late night heart-to-heart.

avery

"Okay- now are you going to tell me what it is?! Come on, Roe, you've been teasing this for weeks!" Despite adding a whine to her words, Avery was beaming brightly at the other girl. She was so excited to be with her to get her tattoo. It has been such a huge mystery to her and dammit, the young girl was not patient about this. "Please... A hint. Any little hint. I'm dying here, I need to know!"

monroe

"if i tell you, the mystery's going to be ruined, babe." monroe was excited to get this tattoo, she talked about it with kam a week ago, and she wanted this one to be a surprise for avery, which is why she had the other come with her in the first place. though a part of her is still nervous, she really hopes the dancer would love her tattoo. "no hints for you, baby, i'm sorry. you just have to wait."

avery

Groaning, she wrapped her arms around her and hid her face in the crook of her neck. "You're trying to kill me, babe, I swear... I don't have the patience to wait! You've been dangling this for so long now, I truly am about to die from curiosity. I already know it's gonna be amazing; Why all the secrecy, hm?"

monroe

"because i know you're going to love it, and it's absolutely worth the wait and surprise." monroe kisses avery's cheeks before they entered the tattoo parlor, talking to some of the people there for a bit before getting ready. she looks back at the other with a grin before taking her shirt off. "you can stay here and just hold my hand while this goes on?"

avery

"I'm gonna cry," she pouted, trying (and failing) not to smile as she kissed her. She waited as she talked with the employees, looking around the place before back to the older brunette. Smiling softly, she nodded. "Sure, I can do that. But I'm still dying over not knowing this, babe."

monroe

"baby, i know you don't have it right now, but i promise, it's going to be worth the patience." the dj took her shirt off and laid down on her stomach, she was so excited for this, for avery see the tattoo slowly be revealed. monroe takes her hand to hold. "you can guess though, while kami works on it. ready?"

avery

"You're gonna be the death of me, baby." Kissing her forehead, she then took a seat in a chair near the girl. Leaning forward, taking her hand and kissing it before leaning her cheek on it. Avery smiled softly. "Okay... Um... Is it dedicated to one of your favourite music artists?"

monroe

"feeling is mutual, angel." monroe just kept her eyes on avery, who...god....looking at her like that....she just wanted to tell her what the surprise is, that this is for her, but she has to be strong for this. "nope," she grins teasingly at the other.

avery

She leaned in the kiss her on the lips, gently bumping her nose against hers. Groaning softly, Avery continued to pout. "Um... Is it..." A thought came to her. Which, it honestly made her blush slightly. Laughing, she shook her head. "Sorry, this is probably wrong as well, but it'd be so adorable if it'd true: is it something for Mars?"

monroe

avery was getting close, but it's for the other tattoo monroe's just about to propose for them to have after kam finishes this one. she just grins, chuckling lightly at her guess. she had a feeling the writer wouldn't turn down the chance of them having a matching tattoo. "try again, baby. come on....just watch kam do his magic...."

avery

She pouted, trying to think of something. Anything! "Waffles?" she guessed as well. However, she then shook her head as she said, "I'm not anywhere close enough, am I?" Kissing her shoulder, Avery sat up to watch Kam's work. Her brow furrowed slightly. She noticed the tattoo outline and the outline... It looked familiar. "Hold up-... Is that...?" Standing up slightly to get a better look, her eyes widening as her other hand covered her mouth as she sat back down quickly in her seat to stare at Monroe. "Eros and Psyche?!"

monroe

"baby....i don't think waffles and i are in that level of friendship yet," she chuckles. "nope, not close, sorry baby." monroe kept her eyes on avery as she watches her tattoo slowly taking form, grinning at her realization. she was amused at the girl's surprise on her face. "mhmm....go on," she hums, letting the girl take her time in finally noticing the tattoo that was taking shape on her back. the dj then looks up at her with a smirk on her face.

avery

"I don't know... He seems to be your favourite." Of course, she wasn't going to add 'pussy' in there, not in front of Kam. But she knew that Roe would get it. However... The fact that the tattoo was the silhouette of Eros and Psyche... She hadn't been expecting that. Their tale were her favourite myth and her book was a modern retelling of them. So to see this on the skin of the girl she loves... Avery honestly became incredibly emotional. Smiling brightly, she soon also began to cry. "Baby... I... I-I don't know what to say," she finally mused, scooting her chair closer as she laid her forehead against the DJ's, kissing her hand.

monroe

“that is not true, he’s not!” monroe feigns offense at the girl’s words, but the chuckles once more. it’s been a little banter between the two of them which started on the week she was just staying at home after that little incident back the throuple. she isn’t even that much focused on kam tattooing her back anymore, she only kept her eyes on the younger girl who seemed to not believe what the tattoo is on her back. “your piece about eros and psyche is my favorite, so….,” she wiggles her eyebrows. she intertwines her fingers with avery, humming at her kissing the back of her hand. “you like your surprise?”

avery

"It totally is!" she joked. The little inside joke was truly becoming one of her favourites when it came to their quirks. Honestly, bringing Waffles into their lives not too long after the fight at Throuple had proven to become one of her best ideas. She couldn't stop smiling at the girl, her heart bursting with so much love and joy. "I love it," she whispered, unable to handle it anymore. She leaned in to kiss her softly on the lips, soon laughing a little as she wiped away her tears. "I can't believe this... Babe, how long have you been planing this?"

monroe

“mhmm, baby, you’re going to distract kam…” monroe jokes, pecking on avery’s lips once she leans her face close to hers. she was glad that the other loves her little surprise. “maybe a couple of weeks now?” she gives her a shy grin. “i had this idea of getting another tattoo, on my back this time, and instantly thought of your favorite myth. kam replied to my tweet and we texted about it for bit.” she brings her hand close to her lips, kissing the back of her palm. “i just figured this is the right time to have it.”

avery

"Nah, he's good," she mused, waving him off. All she could focus on was the girl before her. And listening to her... Avery let out another surprised laugh. "A-A few weeks?" With her eyes scanning Roe's, she leaned in for another kiss. It was so soft and gentle, but full of so much love. Love... Would that explain why she got this certain tattoo? Because she loves her? An entire zoo rampaged through her stomach at the thought. "I love it. I love it so, so much." I love you so much. God, I'm so in love with you. "I can't believe this... This is amazing, baby."

monroe

“yeah, remember when i tweeted about being tempted to have another tattoo?” monroe wiggles her eyebrows at the other again. “he replied to my tweet….maybe it took some time for me to text him because we had busy weeks after that? then we talked about it, scheduled the whole thing and now we’re here.” she hopes that even though she doesn’t know how to put her feelings to words yet, avery would know the message behind this tattoo. “i’m glad that you love it, angel,” she smiles lovingly, rubbing her thumb against her palm. “though, since you’ve mentioned mars….i have another idea.”

avery

"I-I remember, yeah. I just... God, I truly didn't think of this being a possibility," Avery admitted. It truly had been the farthest thing from her mind, not even an actual possibility. But it was real. It was happening. And soon enough, this was going to be a part of Monroe for the rest of her life. God, the idea of something that's connected to the writer being a part of the DJ for forever... It felt so special. Laughing, she nodded. "What's your idea, lioness?" She stared back at her adoringly.

monroe

the moment the idea came to mind, monroe secretly researched on eros and psyche tattoos, seeing which one would look good (and avery would love). she wanted a part of them, a part of the writer to be on her skin for as long as she lives. she wanted to be close to her even though they're not together, and this seemed to be a way. "see...he loves treasure planet and....i came up with thr idea of matching tattoos.... how about we have the planet mars and a pirate ship as our tattoos?"

avery

She's going to tell her. She's going to go with Landon's plan and tell her that she loves her. She cannot hold this off any longer, not after this. She can do it tomorrow, maybe even try to actually cook something. Make an effort. All she knows is that she loves her and she desperately needs to tell her. Listening to her idea, the younger girl beamed brightly and nodded quickly. "Yes! Yes, baby, I love that. I love that so much. It's perfect. Which one do you want? Where should we put them?" God, today was an incredible day.

monroe

monroe smiles when avery was up with the plan of having matching tattoos. "i was thinking about you having the planet mars while i have the pirate ship...it does makie sense that i have it right?" she was somehow a little pirate during her younger years, before meeting avery. she was excited to have this one with her and share it to the world, this is something permanent this time, to tell everyone whom she belongs to "how about on our wrists? just cute little ones, i'm sure mars would love it when he grows up..."

avery

She grinned. "Sounds great, baby. Or should I say... my Tristan." Giggling, she rubbed their noses before kissing the girl. It was going to be perfect and she loved it so much already. The idea of them sharing something that meant a lot to their son... It felt amazing. She was certain that Mars was going to love it. "I'm all in. I love the idea of this so much. He's going to love it."

monroe

"oh, i'm definitely your tristan," monroe pecks on the girl's lips. things with avery is finally picking up, they've been in a slow pace for a year now, and she felt so stupid for realizing what really her feelings are for the writer are lately. it actually took for her so long to understand it. well, it's better late than never, right? "after this, we'll have the matching tattoos then. i'm excited."

avery

"And I'm your Yvaine," she mused. A grin graced her lips at the peck. She loves her. She loves her so much and she can't keep it to herself anymore. She wants to be with her more than anything. While she wished that this could've happened sooner, at least she was finally feeling more confident to tell her. And while there was still that small part of her that's worried, she was more so convinced that Monroe Oliveira was in love with Avery Chopra than that she wasn't. And she's going to tell her. Once the excitement of this has calmed down, she's going to tell her. "Me too, baby. This is such an incredible idea."

monroe

monroe's happy that her plan went well and avery loves her surprise. her reaction is the only important thing she cares about, she wanted her to know that she wants to be with her for the rest of their lives. god, she only wants avery marina chopra, no one else. the rest of their stay at the tattoo parlor went by a quick, with them getting the matching wrist tattoos after. they've kissed a lot in front of her friend, but she didn't care, she loves this very moment she shares with her. ------------------TIMESKIP----------------------------------- is this what jenga has told her that day when they were at the park? she remembers the older girl's words, i think there’ll be a breaking point moment where your heart can’t take it anymore. she couldn't take it anymore, her heart was about to explode. she kept on tossing and turning on their bed, watching the writer sleep beside her. fuck, she's so nervous.

avery

After that rather eventful day, it wasn't surprising that Avery had found it really easy to fall asleep once the time came- especially while curled up in Monroe's arms. She couldn't stop reeling over the girl getting that tattoo for her and then them getting those matching tattoos for their son. Honestly, she's never been so happy before until she had both Mars and Monroe in her life. And she wanted to spend the rest of her life like this with them. She loves them greatly, her heart just so warm constantly. It'd been the middle of the night when she woke up. Typically, they both ended up waking up at around this time for a soft middle of the night make out session. "Baby?" she croaked softly, reaching out for her.

monroe

her heart is beating wildly against her chest, it felt like those kettle drums being played so loud that you can hear it from afar. could avery heart it too? monroe tucks the girl's loose hair behind her ear, in some way, she was waiting for her to wake up. she just wanted to tell her, she doesn't think she can last another second without her knowing what she's feeling. "aves....baby...are you fully awake?" she asks, gently kissing the top of her head. "i have to tell you something, it's very very important. it can't wait."

avery

She smiled softly at the kiss, wrapping her arms around her. "Babyyyy," she mused, yawning softly as her nose scrunches up. Avery scooted as close as possible, blinking her eyes awake to look at her. Despite still being quite sleepy, she looked at Monroe as if she was responsible for all of the planets and the stars and everything wonderful and beautiful in the universe. "What is it, baby? You can tell me anything. I promise- I got you, remember?"

monroe

monroe takes one of the girl's hand and puts it on her chest, staring deeply into her eyes. she was struggling to put it into words. god, she wishes she was eloquent enough to tell her how she feels. avery and mars are her galaxy, and she couldn't imagine how the past year would be without the two, she can't imagine life without avery. she's her lucky star, someone who came in her very dark....very dull life and brightened it up, put life into it, made her feel so fucking alivem made her feel things she didn't know she could ever feel. fuck, how can she even start? she puts her hand against the writer's cheek, running her thumb against her skin. "i love you, avery marina chopra."

avery

... Wait... Wait, is this a dream? Is she still asleep? No way this is happening... Holy shit, it's happening. It's actually, finally happening. Avery laid there in silence, her mouth gaped open in shock. But then, her lips tugged into a huge grin and she laughed, pulling the girl into a kiss. "I love you, too!" Her words came out breathy, the brunette overcome with joy. She laughed joyfully again, her hand reaching to cup her face with her thumb caressing her cheek. "Monroe Eilam Oliveira, I love you. I love you so, so much. I always have, lioness."

monroe

part of monroe always knew that she loves avery, even before they started living together. it showed how her place back at southside drastically changed, with her always making sure the writer has a good time, even though they were having sex or just hanging out, sharing take outs and watching crappy shows on her laptop, or sharing new music or mix that she's made. the love she had even intensified the night she found out about her attack, she realized how scared she is of losing her. she wasn't just a roommate, but she's also her best friend. the day that the older girl decided about moving to the north, the other was the first person in mind she wanted to live with. they just.....fit so well together. they're soulmates. monroe knew that now. "i love you," she repeats. "fuck, i love you so much, avery. i can't even....i can't even put it words. i'm sorry i took forever."

avery

After everything they shared and been through with each other over the past year, it wasn't difficult for her to fall in love with the girl. And while she's fallen in love before with three different people, this love... this love she has shared and felt for Monroe... it was so different. It was more real. All of her past mistakes, she had subconsciously made sure to not repeat them with the girl. She made sure to actually talk to her, to stay put so that they'd be able to work things out. In the beginning after she realized that keeping her attack from her had been a mistake, she knew then that she needed to be honest about everything with the girl and to keep her in the loop with things. And she did, with all except for her love for her. Compared to the place she was at a year ago, she has become so much of a better person. And honestly? It was the love of her two most favourite people in the world that helped her with that. She has love Monroe since the moment she saw her, and her love for the girl has only grown more and more. For the first time ever, she can think that they're soulmates and truly believe it. Liza, Luca, and Max, there'd always been those doubts there. And while she'd been scared of potentially being wrong about the DJ's returned feelings, when she finally thought logically, she knew that those doubts were false. "I love you," she mused, softly putting her forehead against hers. "It's okay, baby. It's okay... We've honestly been saying it to each other now for so long; There's so many different ways to say and show our love. But god, I love you so much, Monroe. Ever since the day I met you, I've been in love with you. I can't... We're finally admitting it to each other. I've been wanting to tell you since New Years; I just wasn't sure how. Hell, I've been trying to. But something always stopped me: Mars, Ellie... myself... I love you, my Roe. Fuck, I can't stop saying it! I love you, I love you, I love you."

monroe

love was something monroe never really experienced before. it’s always been something short-lived for her, something that she could see other people having but not her. yes, maybe she’s had the platonic kind of love, but this? she’s definitely haven’t encountered that. not until she met avery, there’s always this certain warmth in her chest that only shows up whenever they’re together. it collapsed and became a kaleidoscope when they got even closer as time passed, her heart sinking at the though of losing her upon discovering that scar on her arm. things between them surely changed after that. she became…..closer, more protective of the other. there are even times she’d come to peppermints to pick her up and it’s not even her shift. she’s terrified to lose her, she didn’t know then, but now, she was so sure. so sure of what her feelings are for the writer. “so….that was why you were nervous back at new years?” she now realized that day the girl was about to tell her something, but then they were interrupted by a lot of things, that morning before they went to the aquarium, that night during the pride party. god there’s been a lot of occasions she realized that this has been what avery’s been trying to tell her. “i love hearing it from you,” she admits before pecking on her lips. “i fucking love you, so much.”

avery

Having felt love before and having been burnt by it all three times, she'd been rather scared when she realized she was in love with her. She'd been talking with a girl named Abigail at a New Years Eve party and gushing about her, having a bright smile and hearts in her eyes the whole time. The younger girl had just giggled and been like, 'Wow, you really love your girlfriend, don't you?' She couldn't even correct her: she'd been so stunned. And for a moment there, she wondered if this was a good thing. But the very second she saw her again, saw how her face lit up when she saw her as well, her fear had melted away and she was comfortable. A feeling that was different when she realized her feelings those other three times, having been scared all throughout. That was when she knew that this was real- and that this was so much better. "Yeah," she admitted bashfully with a laugh. "But... the thing is... while I wasn't sure how to tell you, I felt comfortable. I felt so comfortable and everything just felt so right. Everything made sense. I've never felt this way before... it's so new but I like it so much. Fuck, I love you so much." Giggling at the kiss, she scooted closer and held her in her arms. "Wait... So, what's our next step? Where... Where do we go from this, from now on? Because... now that I've told you... I don't think I'm capable of hiding my love for you again."

monroe

“now i get why cleo calls me stupid all the time.” monroe always makes sure that she’d always visit avery during her performance at the cove, bringing her a yellow rose, which she remembers, her favorite flower. she’s always hide in the crowd during the performance, or the restaurant owner would find her a place to enjoy her food while watching the other. “i didn’t know what i was feeling until lately….back at the pride party, before ellie interrupted us?,” she says with a shy grin on her face. “i’m kind of glad we were interrupted by her and mars a lot of times….this just….seemed like the perfect moment. my heart kind of just told me it’s the right moment,” she smiles, kissing the younger girl’s cheek. “well…i don’t want to hide it either, and i want people to know….that it’s official. so….avery…erm,” a blush formed on her cheek as she struggled on her words. “would you be my girl? is that how i’m supposed to say it?”

avery

"Oh god... She's going to have a field day with this..." Avery laughed brightly, hiding her face in the crook of Monroe's neck at the realization. Cleo had most definitely been one of the people who constantly encouraged her to admit to the DJ about her feelings. Only, she'd been less nice about it. Nonetheless, she was glad that this has finally happened. Took them much longer than she would've liked... But this has finally happened. And nothing could make her happier. Looking back at her, she smiled warmly. "It is, yeah," she noted, smiling only brighter at the kiss. With her smile only growing, she squealed as she nodded. "Yes! Yes, yes, yes!" Hugging the older girl, she finally kissed her passionately. "I would love to be your girl, baby! I would love that so much."

monroe

monroe wouldn’t prefer this in any other way. wow, avery’s officially hers and she was avery’s, there were those butterflies in her chest once more. she pulls the other close, humming as they’ve kissed. three in the morning, while the world is sleeping. it was just their souls who are awake, and they’re finally together, after what felt like forever of waiting. she carefully drags the writer on top of her. “hmm….you’re my girlfriend now, huh?,” she teases, wiggling her eyebrows at the other. “i just want to sleep like this…with my girlfriend on top of me. i like saying that now.”

avery

This felt like a dream... No. No, this was better than a dream. This was real life, now. And god, she's so happy right now. When she woke up at 3 am, ready to steal a gentle moment with the girl while the rest of the world is nonexistent, she expected for them to share a few kisses and cuddles. She hadn't been expecting to share their love for each other. But now that it has happened, she couldn't have asked for anything better. Grinning brightly, Avery giggled at the word. "I suppose so," she purred, giving Monroe heart-eyes. "And... you're my girlfriend now. How about them apples?" Nodding, she kissed the tip of her nose. This is happiness, isn't it? She loves it- loves her. "Mmmm, I would love to sleep like this. To sleep on top of my girlfriend. God, I love hearing you say that. I love you, my iridescent girlfriend."

happy pride ;; averoe discord thread

WHERE: Kingsboro, New York

WHEN: June 27th, 2020

TIME: Early-mid afternoon

WARNINGS: So fucking adorable- and long. But mainly adorable lmao

CHARACTER FEATURES: Avery Chopra, Monroe Oliveira ( @monroephile ), Cleo Lopez

CHARACTER MENTIONS: Mars Slater (NPC), Zane Bishara ( @zanebishara ), Devin Stewart ( @devinxstewart )

PROMPT: Averoe celebrates Monroe’s 25th birthday during Pride Month in a very special way.

avery

She was nervous. She was really, really fucking nervous. She'd been up all night trying to decide if this was the right idea or if it was too soon. But... When she thought about it, she knew in her heart and her soul that this was the right idea. Asking for Cleo's help, she had the older woman spend the morning with Monroe to take her to a couple of music shops with the offer to buy her anything and everything she wanted, as a birthday treat. While Cleo was distracting her, Avery got to work. With their landlord's permission, the girl was able to set up a small table and to decorate the rooftop, having a beautiful view of Kingsboro in the early afternoon. With vases of French marigolds circling the gazebo, the table decorated in Monroe's favourite colours while set up with chicken and waffles along with one glass of root beer and one glass of screwdriver cocktails for each of them. The rooftop gazebo was decorated with balloons and streamers in the DJ's favourite colours, a banner with the words 'Happy Birthday!' hung up. With Cleo texting her saying that she was dropping Monroe off at the complex, Avery was nervous. But so excited. She texted her girlfriend to see if she could join her up on the roof, telling herself to breathe. The moment she saw the shorter brunette, Avery beamed brightly and held her arms out wide while she stood in the gazebo next to the table with her lunch. "Surprised! Happy birthday, Monroe Eilam Oliveira."

monroe

it’s her birthday, wow, she hasn’t even planned anything for herself that day. usually she’d spend the whole day at home, doing the usual things as if it was just another day. she really wasn’t used to celebrating her birthday, not until she met avery. the girl definitely changed that, with something planned out for them last year, she was sure she has something up her sleeve again. but she wasn’t sure, instead, she had spent the earlier hours with cleo, roaming around kingboro with the offer of buying whatever she wants for her birthday. she kind of did take advantage of that, buying a new dj controller, that model she’s been saving up for months, along with a new pair of headphones. the older woman was that sister she’s never had, she was always there to look out for her and avery, and she’s very grateful for that. she didn’t want to bring up that she knew that she was being distracted though, to just have them carry on this little plan they have for her. once she was dropped off at the apartment complex, the dj tried not to rush upstairs, to the roof as the writer instructed her. “wow….you never ever fail too woo me, aves….,” she looks around the place, in awe of how it was transformed. she walked up to the other and pulled her close for a hug. “thank you….this is the best already. you’re the best.”

avery

God... There she is... There's the woman of her dreams. Wow... Wow, wow, wow. Avery beamed so brightly, walking quickly to meet her and hold her in her arms. It was only for a few hours and she was the one who planned this in the first place... But god, she missed her. She missed her so much. "You're welcome, baby. I also made some cupcakes! Well... Attempted, is the best word for it... but they're downstairs in the kitchen. I didn't want to risk bringing them out here and potentially melting." Fortunately, the day wasn't super hot, but she didn't want to risk it. Pulling away, she moved to pull out Monroe's chair for her. "I made you your favourite! I tried to recreate that one pasta from the Cove that you like but... um, well, anyways." Clearing her throat, she giggled awkwardly. God, she has been in ten different theatre productions- try to act like you're not a nervous, awkward bean, for once! "Shall we, um, shall we eat? Oh, and Laurel's watching Mars! She promised to bring him back later. I just... selfishly wanted a few hours with you. Oops?"

monroe

monroe loves this certain...clinginess, the affection her and avery shares. their bond has only just gotten stronger when they've become official. it was nice to be back home with avery, cleo may have suffered an hour of two of her nagging while they were at various music shops. "cupcakes? the classic mocha cupcakes? i love those so much," she hums, giving her a cheeky smile. "i have a feeling you did great though, i'm going to love that pasta, i'm just sure. anything that's made for you is truly a chef's kiss," she reassures the other as she kisses her cheek. the dj hated the heat so much, thank god it's a little bit cold today, cuddling with avery after this would be perfect. monroe just loves how....warm and safe she feels in her arms. she's just looking for....mars, where's mars? "thank you--oh, i was about to ask," she chuckles lightly, sitting down. "though....i'm giving you permission to be selfish with me for a few hours. i'd love to spend time alone with you."

avery

She knew that some people hated clinginess, that they absolutely despised it. Avery, on the other hand, loved it with Monroe. Loved how they always needed to be touching each other one way or another. Holding hands, holding each other, kissing, sitting on each others's laps; Any way they're able to be close to one another, she loved it. "Tried to," she giggled, cheeks turning pink. "They're... not very pretty... I had trouble decorating them... But I promise I tried my best! I really hope you'll like them." Avery just blushed even more by her sweet words. She touched her cheek, a dorky grin gracing her lips at the kiss. God, what has this woman done to her? She loves it. She loves her. "You're welcome. I knew she and Lissy were missing Mars, so it was a win-win on all accounts." Softly kissing her after she sat down and settled in, the dancer took her seat across from her. She instantly reached out her hand, heart eyes for Monroe. "I... I have another surprise for you. I mean, I was going to wait until after lunch... But I don't think I can wait any longer."

“i just know you’ve done great, baby, plus, decorating is really a hard task. i bet my taste buds would love them so much. i mean, you already make the awesomest chicken and waffles in the whole wide galaxy, i am very sure you did great on those too, and the pasta, don't tell cleo this, but i know this is already better that the one at the cove." she winks playfully at the other. alright, she may be biased, but it's true, avery has been doing really great in the kitchen lately, both of them working around in the kitchen, she wanted to make more homecooked meals for them and for mars instead of ordering out, it's a form of bond for the family as well. "i mean....i don't blame them, mars is a little bit of a charmer. one look at those eyes and you're done for," she chuckles. she swore to make sure the little boy had the best things in the world, he and avery are her life now. and she wanted to make sure both are always safe and getting the good things they truly deserve. she raised an eyebrow at her next words. "hmm....another surprise? wow.... i've been having a lot of those today...."

"Baaaaaabe..." The brunette couldn't help it as she giggled, her compliments causing her to blush a bright red. It had been a joke for basically all her life about how awful her cooking was. It was honestly quite embarrassing, really. But Monroe... she was always so encouraging and kind, always bringing her up whenever she felt down with her cooking. While she has grown confident with cooking breakfast, other foods... Those made her nervous. But she felt better when they decide to cook together. "He most definitely got his charming ways from you," she mused, her grin becoming cheeky. However, her one minute of confidence soon vanish and she cleared her throat. "Um... Well... I... Um, h-here..." Reaching into her pocket, she brought out a medium-sized jewelry box consisting of a beautiful locket. She held the box out for her, hoping that she'll like it. Oh god... Please let her like it.

monroe

“maybe he got some from me, but it’s definitely from you, babe, you’re quite a charmer yourself, i mean….” she takes her hand close to her lips, kissing the back of her palm. “whenever i watch you at the cove you just….everyone’s eyes are on you. it makes me feel like tristan thorn, your suitor?” monroe knows the vibe in the whole restaurant anytime that the spotlight’s on her. god, why did she not realize shit at that point in time? what’s important though, is that they’re finally official, as most of their friends would say. she could remember them rolling their eyes at her most of the time when avery’s been brought up in a conversation. she sat there as she watches the girl getting something from her pocket, revealing what looked like a jewelry box. she takes it and examines the box for a moment before opening it, revealing a…necklace? no…it’s definitely a locket. “holy shit….baby…this is wonderful….,” she glances up at the writer in admiration.

avery

Avery was about as red as a tomato at this point, her cheeks so red. "Our sweet, charming little boy," she mused. Her heart was beating past as she opened the box. She felt like she could breathe a little as she admitted her love for the locket. She reached out her hands to hold Monroe's. "It... It belonged to my grandmother," she explained, keeping her eyes on the girl. "When my grandfather proposed to her, he knew he wanted to do something special. Something unique. So... He designed that locket specifically for her... and he proposed to her with it." The writer took a deep breath. "Monroe Eilam Oliveira... This past year with you has been the greatest, happiest time of my life. Before I met you, I was... I was going through a rough patch. For five years, every day seemed to be a nightmare and all I ever knew was heartbreak and misery. Before you showed up, after things got bad with Luca and Max, I told myself that I was going to work on myself and focus on Mars. Become the person I needed to be for him. And then you showed up. And... And you helped me. Over a year now, I have grown in s many ways I thought would never be possible for me. I have laughed more, smiled more, have been more happy than I ever was the twenty years without you in my life. You have been by my side and helped me raised Mars, watched him grow from being a few months old to turning one, to now turning two soon. You have shown me that the world can be a warm and caring place. You have loved me, even before we realized that what we shared for each other was love. And I love you, Monroe. I love you so, so much. The past few days, learning about Zane and Devin being back... I know that we were both nervous there. All my life it seemed that whenever things are going good, something always comes to take it away. Not this time, not with us. I don't want anyone else, Monroe. All I want is you. I want to fall asleep in your arms just for us to wake up with you in mine. I want to share chicken and waffles with you forever, sharing screwdriver cocktails with you forever. I want to sing for you, dance with you, learn to cook more food with you. I want to watch Treasure Planet with you a thousand times with Mars and then a thousand times more. I want to take care of Waffles with you, give him a loving home. I want to go on adventures with you, whether it's something small as being in our own apartment or something huge as going to another country. I want to grow old with you, watch you grow as a DJ and as a cook while I grow as a writer and performer. I want... I want us to grow our family together some day. I want us to live in a house together some day. I want us to be grandparents some day. I want to live the rest of my life with you. I don't want to live in fear of losing you; I want to be able to know that I am never, ever, going to lose you. And for you to know that you're not going to lose me, either. You are my Roe, my baby. My babe, my darling, my sweetheart. My lioness, my bunny, my Tristan Thorne. You are my Jack, my Lula, my Jack of all trades. My Robin Hood, my pirate. My Aladdin... My Al... My Ali... You are my soulmate and the love of my life... You are the mother of Mars and the future grandmother of our grandchildren... I want you to be my wife." Getting up from her seat and keeping her eyes on Monroe, she got down on one knee. "I love you. I love you with everything I am and more. And I promise to love you more and more of every second of every day. I promise to love you for now, for tomorrow, for next week, for next month, for next year, for forever. I promise to love you for the rest of my life and for longer. I promise with my fingers and my toes. And so... With the promise of my love, I must ask... Monroe Eilam Oliveira: will you marry me?"

monroe

if you ever get to ask monroe who her first love is, she would instantly say it’s avery, not a second more to think. for the past quarter of a century of her life, for so many people that she’s met, interacted with, some of them she got to share nights with, they never had this feeling she’s shared with the writer. at first, would be mistaken as infatuation, but as time has passed, the pull she felt for her got stronger and stronger that monroe was struggling to put a word for it. for the past year that she’s shared the same apartment with avery and mars, she knew that these were the people she wanted to spend the rest of her life with, that they are already her family, before things even got to the state of being official. yet here lies the conflict, devin and zane. it was this force that made her worry a lot. the moment she and the other got official, she discovers about this….this man. a rich….talented, well-know artist. and she was just someone who mixes pre-recorded music, as some people would refer. she was scared that she’ll lose avery to this guy. though right now….knowing where this locket came from, the history behind it, and then the taller brunette going along with her speech, all the worries monroe had slowly dissipates, tears starting to form in her eyes as she watches her get down on one knee. it may look like they were moving fast, but somehow….this all made sense. they’ve always been acting like a couple for what seemed like forever, both of them are just that oblivious enough to notice. with her mind and her heart, she knew this is the right time. “yes….oh my god, yes….i will marry you, avery. avery marina chopra…oh my god,” she finds herself bawling, pulling up the girl close to kiss and hold her in her arms. “god, marry me right now, i…i don’t think i can ever wait….fuck—fuck i love you, baby. i love you so much.”

avery

Monroe, unfortunately, wasn't her first love; But god, she's her true love. Her and Mars have given her a love no one else ever did. When she looked in her future, she saw them. She saw them being a family, hopefully even growing it some day. For the first time in her life, Avery could truly say that she was happy and not be lying. The love she shares for the two has been so pure and so wonderful, it felt too good to be true. But perhaps that was a good thing. Avery use to always run from the things that could be good for her. But with Monroe? With Monroe, she'd stayed. She'd get scared and worried she was awful for her; But then they'd get to talk and her fears would ended up being calmed. She loves her so much, she was crying. But god, she's happy. She is so happy and in love. She laughed joyfully when she said yes, quickly grabbing her in her arms to spin her around as they kissed. She could've sworn she heard fireworks. "Yes! Yes, yes, right now! W-We can go to the courthouse right now and, and get married there. Maybe we can do a big one in the future! I just... I just love you so much and I want to spend the rest of my life with you, and I want to start now." They've already been dating basically for over a year now: this was meant to happen. This is the right moment and time for them. She's going to become her wife. Giggling, she pulled her back into another kiss. "Happy birthday, baby... and happy pride?"

monroe

at the start of the month, getting married to her best friend, to her soulmate is something monroe expected the least, this hasn’t even come to mind. she was also used to things temporary, friendships, relationships, any form of bond she could list off of her mind that she had with other people. thought with avery, she’s become a different person as time passed. she was so contrasting to the old version of herself that was just so numbed up with the number of people who has left her in her life, even her parents have left her the moment she was born. with avery, monroe couldn’t bring herself to doing that, even the thought of it kills her, as if there’s a knife twisted in her chest, making her bleed endlessly. from the first time they had a disagreement, she never let the other go, instead of letting her completely leave, the two learned how to communicate over things like this together and in time grew into so much better versions of themselves. monroe giggles into the kiss as the other spun her around. “courthouse, yes, let’s go to the courthouse, the big wedding can wait, but the thing i can’t wait about is being yours for the rest of our lives, and so on.” she melts in her arms, rubbing their noses together. “happy pride….,” she giggles. “oh, what should i wear? i should—we should ask cleo for help about these things, hmm?”

avery

If you had told Avery at the beginning of June that not only would she and Monroe have confessed their love for each other, officially get together, and get married of all things near the end of Pride, she would never have believed you. But here we are. And god, she couldn't ask for anything better. Ever since they met each other, things were different. Natural, warm, all just so right. Meeting her was like starting a puzzle and finding all of the perfect pieces, creating a masterpiece. This felt exactly like that. And now, they're able to move onto a bigger puzzle to create an even more spectacular masterpiece: their marriage life. God, the girl was buzzing with excitement. She's about to marry to love of her life, her soulmate, her other half. Not everyone was lucky to have that. "Perfect," she mused, giggling as she gave her soft kisses. "We should most definitely dress in something nice... I have that one white suit I've been wanting to wear or this one blue dress that's rather nice... Yes, Cleo! We should-... oh... Oh god, I have no idea how Cleo's gonna react. Should we ask her to be our witness?" The thought of the woman's reaction... She just knows she's going to need to hide their pans. "You're actually going to be my wife... I-I truly never thought that I was ever going to get married... And now, I'm going to get to marry the most incredible and talented and smart and beautiful woman in the world? I just... Whoa. I love you so much, baby."

monroe

monroe is really going to get married, on her birthday. god, she’s not going to ask for anything else. looks like 25 isn’t bad after all, when she’s spending it with the love of her life. “oh god, how should we tell our friends? should we tell them right now? or just….when it’s all done?” she had a giddy smile on her face. nope. she has no idea how weddings work. she’s been to two or three weddings, but honestly, she doesn’t have a fucking clue what went on the whole time. “oh, we have to….,” monroe hums, poking avery’s cheek while she was still in her arms. “i do want to see you in a white suit, if i’m being honest,” she winks, pecking along her jawline. “i do have two pairs of dresses in our closet, you want the black or the red one?,” she wiggles her eyebrows at the other. “you know….how about we tell her over the phone, and then ban her from the apartment…the pan threat seemed to be serious the last time,” she giggles raspily. “i never thought i was going to get married either….no—baby, sshhh. you’re the most incredible and talented and smart and beautiful between the two of us,” she leans close, rubbing their noses together. “i love you too, so so much. now….are you ready to call cleo?”

avery

She's getting married at 21... That never seemed to be a possibility until now. But god, she's so happy that this is happening. That this has become a part of their life. That she was actually going to marry her. Then she brought up their friends... "Maybe... Maybe we should tell them when it's all done. Surprise them." She was worried about how they'd react. They were all very happy when they became official... But would they be supportive of them getting married so soon? She was hopeful. But she didn't want to risk them trying to change their minds beforehand. She giggled at the poke, grinning brightly at the beautiful girl in her arms. "Suit it is. Oooo... You are absolutely stunning in red, baby. You'd look so beautiful in both." Avery laughed, nodding at the idea. "Yes, that's perfect. I'm really not wanting to see her until we get to the courthouse." The writer held her closer, kissing her softly. "Nooo, you are. I'm ready, baby. Let's go get married, Monroe Eilam Oliveira."

monroe

“i’ll go get my red dress then, baby. though….i haven’t worn that one before, did i buy that one or did you?” monroe’s wardrobe has always leaned towards street wear, sometimes she would wear an oversized hoodie and cycling shorts whenever she’s just taking a stroll around town. she did save a few dresses; in case she has formal occasions to go to. in this case as of now, her own wedding. the trip to the courthouse was short, monroe glancing at avery for a moment and back on the road, taking her hand to hold whenever she’s got the chance. she used to despise this day, since it was the same day her parents decided that she’s not welcome in their lives. but now….now it’s going to change. it’s the day her and avery are officially going to be wives, just strengthening the word family. “who’s gonna have who’s last name?,” she looks at the other, asking that question that’s suddenly formed in her head.

avery

"Ooo, I think that we got it together? Or maybe Cleo did... Either way, you're going to look incredible, like you always do." Avery loved her style, knowing that it was something the girl felt comfortable in and was happy with. Avery was more so of a boho/artsy girl herself when it came to fashion, but she did like to experiment every now and then. So wearing a suit for her wedding? Sounded amazing. Holding Monroe's hand with one and Mars's hand with the other (after calling her, Laurel had brought him back home- there was no way they'd do this without him), she thought about her question. "Is... Is it okay if I take your last name?" she asked almost shyly, smiling softly at her soon-to-be wife. "I'd love to be known as Avery Marina Oliveira." God, even just saying it as an example sounded so right. 'Cleo! Cleo!’ Mars cried out, the older woman walking towards them and scooping the one year old in her arms. Kissing his cheek and cooing softly at first, the blonde looked at the two with raised eyebrows. "Do I slap you both or hug you both? I'm conflicted."

monroe

“you look dashing in your suit, by the way—but we’re not switching roles, you’re still yvaine and i’m tristan.” monroe playfully teases the other. fuck, she really looks so good in a white suit, why hasn’t she suggested avery to wear this one before? though….this is appropriate for the occasion. she’s going to fucking marry the most wonderful girl (in all aspects) in the galaxy, she feels the luckiest. speaking of galaxy, their little space monkey looks handsome right now, and she couldn’t help but let out an aawww whenever she looks at him. sometimes, since she and avery got official, she’s wondered if even mars have seen something between the two of them that she hasn’t noticed at all. “of course, baby.” she was surprised, but in a good way. she was going to take monroe’s last name, and that made her even more excited. “i love the sound of that.” the moment she’s heard mars call for cleo, an awkward smile formed on her face as she approaches them. “well…it’s my birthday still?,” she chuckles. “so you really can’t say or do mean things to me….and avery.”

avery

"Damn... One day. One day, I will get to top," she teased back, kissing her lips with a grin. Of course, she has grown to love their 'roles' and rarely jokingly asked if she could topped at some point. If she did, however, it was typically as a joke. Glancing back at Mars, her heart just burst. This was his first time wearing a little suit and tie and god, did he look absolutely adorable. His curls were unruly and he had a bright smile on his face, causing the girl to softly kiss his head. "Me too, baby," Avery giggled. Going from Chopra to Oliveira soon sounded so surprising but so fitting and just right. She loves it. God... She was just so happy right now. Not even Cleo's snark could dampen her mood. "Hiiii, Cleo. Thank you so much for coming to witness." Sighing, the older woman shook her head and hugged each girl while holding the toddler, who was rather fascinated with her hair. "Fine, but tomorrow? Fair game. Now... Let's go get you two inside and married." Despite her attitude, the woman was truly happy for them. And in fact... she even had a surprised for the two girls. But that was going to wait until after they're married.

monroe

"avery marina oliveira.... i'm the luckiest woman in the galaxy to ever be your wife, and also be the mother of mars. but before i start a speech in public, i should really stop now, we cannot be late to our own wedding." monroe exaggeratingly takes a sigh of relief when cleo said she's going to let her slide for today. "oop, good luck looking for us tomorrow though," she teases her in reply. the blonde is like one of the sisters she's never had. she knew they only met recently, but she already made an impact in her life, she became one of the few people monroe confides to, asks for advice, whenever it's career or personal-wise, she could really trust her. she does love annoying her, maybe tease her along with avery whenever they sneak around to one of the ship's hiding spots at the cove, sometimes they would even run off the moment she starts rambling in spanish. after that hug they shared with cleo, monroe holds avery's hand, intertwining their fingers. "are you ready to be mrs. oliveira, miss chopra?," she asks the taller brunette with a loving smile.

avery

Avery couldn't help but to grin brightly as she said her new name. It sounded so perfect- she loves it deeply. Nodding, she laughed. "We most definitely cannot be late for this, my love." She kissed the top of her head, pulling her closer. Avery rolled her eyes playfully at Cleo, the woman giving out a grossed out reaction to her words. "Nope, stop right there," the blonde said, only causing the taller girl to laugh. Despite loving to give her grief, the performer truly appreciated the restaurant owner. The fact that came to witness for their wedding in spite of all of the shit they put her through to mess with her meant so much. The woman was like an older sister figure and she cared about her deeply. "Thank you," she whispered as they hug, causing a soft smile to grace the blonde's face. Looking at her future wife, she nodded with a grin before kissing her softly. "I was born ready, Miss Oliveira. Are you ready to become Mrs. Oliveira?"

monroe

“i know i’ve been ready ever since i laid my eyes on you.” monroe kisses avery softly before they entered the courthouse together. she doesn’t know that much about weddings, specifically this one, but she was aware cleo’s already taken care of it. she had only a little bit of knowledge, with how long should marriage licenses take, the fees, yada yada. before the ceremony started, both of them signed on necessary forms first (of course, while holding hands, as usual), then headed where the wedding presider was. they had exchange of vows, i do’s, and instead of rings, the locket was put on her neck by the taller brunette. maybe they’re just going to buy those rings tomorrow? they really do. “you may now kiss—the bride, yes.” the judge was chuckling at monroe not being able to wait, pulling avery close for a kiss. “that was hell of a first kiss as my wife, mrs. oliveira.”

avery

It was perfect. The whole entire thing was perfect. Cleo paying the fees and taking care of things had been surprising, but once they were able to start the ceremony, everything had fallen into place. It was so hard not to pull her in to kiss her, her excitement only growing more and more. By the time she was able to put the locket on her wife, the grin on the face was bright and warm. She squealed excitedly as she was finally able to kiss Monroe, lifting her up in the air as she kissed her. "I couldn't agree more, Mrs. Oliveira," she giggled, bringing her back on her feet as she rubbed their noses together. Cleo had been sitting on a bench, holding Mars and watching the Oliveiras share their first kiss as a married couple. "Congratulations, you two," she mused, standing up to walk over to them as she held the toddler. "Well... I certainly hope you two are ready to celebrate- in about two hours, Amphitrite's Cove is going to become a birthday party and a wedding reception." Avery's eyes widened, taken aback by the older woman's words. "I- You- Wait, what?" A small laugh left her lips, the taller brunette looking at her wife in bewilderment.

monroe

avery has now taken her last name, she’s now avery marina oliveira, monroe eilam oliveira’s wife. her heart just leaps in excitement with the knowledge. “thank you, cleo i—i didn’t expect this woman right here would be my wife today, but i wouldn’t have this any other way,” she says, letting go of the taller brunette for a moment to hug her. the woman has witnessed enough of their relationship that others haven’t witnessed, she just knew the way they looked at each other, she is somehow one of the few people who has made her realize that she’s indeed, in love with avery. monroe was surprised at the mention of having a reception. “so….wow, you planned all of this?,” she asked with a hint of surprise in her voice. “i—i guess we should tell people right now, am i right?,” she returns back to her wife’s side. “oh my god….they are going to lose their shit about this, babe.”

avery

Avery had her arm wrapped around the girl's waist, resting her cheek against the top of her head. On one hand, she wasn't surprised. Cleo has been one of the few people who has witnessed the more raw parts of their relationship even before they became official. Despite only knowing them for about two months, Cleo has bear witness to their relationship in ways others hadn't. But at the same time, the fact that she organized this... It was unexpected. The blonde just smiled warmly. "Planned it the moment you got off the phone with me and told me you were getting married," she admitted, chuckling at their reactions. "Everything should be ready in two hours. Guess you better let people know so that they can get ready and come celebrate with you two." The taller brunette laughed softly, tearing up. "I... Thank you, Cleo. I don't... I don't know how to repay you." Waving off her words, the restaurant owner shook her head and said, "No need- I got you two." Reaching out to take her son's hand, Avery grinned at her wife before kissing her softly on the lips. "We really should. And god, if we thought their reactions to us becoming official was extreme... We better get started, Mrs. Oliveira."
