Some things are meant to be.
Blogger’s note: This is the second instalment of a series called “Darling, so it goes.” written by the beautiful Miss Holly who has chosen to post her work though this blog.
Reactions/feedback are greatly appreciated. Any questions/requests for Miss Holly can be submitted through the ask box!(:
Without further ado, here is Some things are meant to be.
****
“I know it. I know you know it. You know I know it.”
“Yeah I know.”
“Then why do you run from me every time we get close?”
“I don’t know.”
This was precisely what she was afraid of.
After her panic attack, they agreed to drop the subject for a while and have some dinner.
Then dinner extended to watching tv.
And watching tv extended to getting ready for bed.
And getting ready for bed extended to lying beside each other and blankly staring at the ceiling. Alas, Y/N broke the silence, and Harry (as usual) couldn’t put his feelings into words. But Y/N (unusually) wasn’t going to let him win this time.
She let out a gargantuan sigh and sat up, silently inviting him to do the same.
“It’s me Harry. I’ve known you like the back of my hand since you were 6. There’s nothing you can say to me now that will scare me off.”
“It’s not that,” he breathed, slowly sitting up to face her. “It’s just… I’m a bit… I guess…. afraid of… us.”
“Why?”
He opened his mouth to speak, but all he got out was a wavering breath. His eyes were welling with tears- not because he was afraid of being vulnerable, but because he knew that he couldn’t escape it anymore. No matter what, things were about to change.
She saw the tears threatening to spill from his eyes and her heart just about split in two. She couldn’t help but feel guilty for upsetting him, even though they both knew it was now or never.
“It’s ok. I know it’s hard. Just please don’t shut me out this time,” she whispered as she held his hands in her own.
He let out a few steady breaths, then it all came gushing out.
“I’m terrified Y/N. I’m truly terrified. You are the best thing that’s ever happened to me and I’m scared that I won’t be the best thing for you. I mess up all the time and if this happens I’m bound to do something to break your heart. If I ever hurt you I couldn’t live with myself, and if you leave me I’ll never find anyone else. You’re it for me and I’m scared.”
She had no idea what to say to him.
She knew he held her on a pedestal- heck, his own family reminded her of it every time they saw her. But she had no idea how much it truly hurt him. Of course she’d thought of the ramifications that could come with the relationship, but her love for him overpowered the doubt.
She pulled him into a tight embrace- her own tears making an appearance.
“Listen to me,” she said with what little voice remained. “You won’t be alone in this Harry. I’ll be with you every step of the way and we can work it out together.”
“I wish it could be that simple.”
“Who says it won’t be? If we really want this, it will happen. I’m not saying it won’t be a bit scary, but isn’t it worth the risk? Think of what our life could be like.”
“I think about it every day.”
“You do?”
“I do. I think about our house, our three babies, our cat and growing old with you. I just seem to think of what it’d be like to grow old without you more… and I don’t like it.”
“Well it doesn’t have to be reality.”
And in that moment, it hit him.
His Y/N was sitting before him.
The same Y/N that battles against her own mind and body every day, was sitting before him in complete confidence.
She had her own set of doubts, but she didn’t care. She heard his worries and knew of his many faults, but still wanted to give them a shot. By no means did his worries fade away in that moment, but for the first time in their long history, he was able to see past them.
“Some things are meant to be,” she grinned.
“And I think we both know that this is one of those things.”
She smiled up at him. Her eyes were still glossy and her cheeks were dotted with tears, but he could see the complete adoration she had for him in that moment.
“Only one thing left to do Styles.”
He chuckled through his tears and immediately began to lean in, but she quickly covered his lips with her hand.
“What’s say you take me on a date?”
“I suppose that could be arranged,” he chucked through her hand.
“Good.”
“Good.”

“Cherry,” he mumbled, her nickname falling from his lips, dripping with desire as he stepped towards her. “You have to let me buy this.”
She leveled her gaze to his, trying to play with him, her favorite activity. “And why is that?”
His fingers ran over the see-through lace, the pebbles of her nipples visible through the material. “Because I can’t promise I won’t rip it off you later, and I know how much you hate it when I ruin your underwear.”
Nora’s breath caught in her throat at his words, body keening under the his touch. “I’ll allow it,” she replied, voice hoarse in her throat. “As long as you let me choose where you fuck me.”
or
Harry buys Nora some lingerie and it leads to some overstimulation on countertops in Italy
pls reblog and share with your friends 💕
Nora’s eyes swept across Harry, the sight of him curled up next to her on the bed bringing a lazy smile to her face as usual. Sometimes she was overwhelmed by how much she simply wanted to spend every waking moment with him, even doing things as simple as this: lying in bed next to him, the sheets pushed down to his waist, one of his arms across her torso, his face pressed into the pillow next to her, breath fluttering from his lips.
The lack of air conditioning in Italy had taken her a while to get used to, but she had finally adjusted and now loved lying in bed, completely naked with Harry, breeze from the open window next to the bed blowing across their bodies. Their other friends had been there for the first two weeks, Nash, Niall, Maddy, Lauren, Taylor, and a couple of Harry’s other frat brothers who Nora had gotten to know in recent months. It was August and they’d all finished their summer internships and decided to take advantage of Harry’s family house in Lucca, which was empty and waiting for them. Everyone had packed up left the morning before, and now it was just her and Harry left in the big house for another week. After that, they were heading back to campus to move into their rooms for senior year and back to reality.
Being there in Italy, with him, the simplicity of life, made her love him more than she could ever imagined and the last thing she wanted to do was leave.
Suddenly, she felt pressure on her side and Harry’s eyes were fluttering open, his green irises meeting hers. “Morning, baby,” he mumbled, lifting his head to press a kiss to her shoulder. “Been awake long?”
She shook her head and rolled over so she was facing him, and traced a finger down the side of his face. A lazy smile flickered across his lips at the feeling. “Not too long. Using the time to watch you without you getting all antsy.”
He tugged her body flush to his and she giggled as he licked at her neck. “Mhm, you’re sweaty.”
“H, that’s gross.”
“No it’s not, just sweat.” He licked at her neck again and she squirmed. “You sweat when I fuck you and have no problem with me licking at you then, so what’s the difference?”
How did the words fuck you make her want him immediately. “Your brain is disgusting,” she said, pushing at him. “Come on, I’m hungry and it’s your turn to cook breakfast.”
His hands pulled on her as she tried to get up, but she slipped through his grasp and he fell back against the bed. “You just like watching me make you breakfast.”
Nora shrugged, and pulled an old DSig shirt out of their chest of drawers, which had become a mixed mess over the weeks. He had ended up in one of her shirts without realizing it, much to the amusement of Nash and the boys, but Nora found it endearing, watching him pull at her oversized button down before realizing the reason it didn’t fit right was because it wasn’t his, but not taking it off. “You’re a good cook.”
Finally, Harry pushed at the sheets and stood up, his completely naked body drawing her eyes in. “Thanks, baby. Pass me some pants?”
She threw a pair of briefs at him and he pulled them on, the material barely covering any of his body, but she didn’t mind in the least. “I’ll start the coffee.”
“As if you know how to work the machine.”
“It’s not my fault it’s all in Italian!”
He laughed and followed her downstairs to the kitchen. She flicked the radio on, Italian ballads filling the room. She loved the kitchen, the simple white cabinets and granite countertops, wooden table and chairs pushed to the side, an island that she usually sat at as Harry cooked. There were windows all the way around, which she opened and let the sunlight in, birds chirping outside.
Harry’s family home was up in the hills outside Lucca, a narrow one-way road winding past houses and an abandoned old church. The house itself was white with multi-colored stone, tall and slim-shaped trees outside next to a small fountain that had a table next to it where they ate dinner most nights. Inside, the house was two stories plus a basement, five bedrooms to properly house Harry’s extended family during the holidays, and two small living rooms overstuffed with books and comfortable couches for mid-afternoon naps. Outside, there was a pool that overlooked the rolling green hills, and a bathhouse with an extra bedroom. All in all, it was heaven and Nora never wanted to leave.
Harry hummed along to some Italian Top 40s song while he scrambled some eggs and toasted two pieces of toast and Nora put together some fruit to go along with it, grabbing some fresh peaches from the bowl. Harry’s neighbor had a peach tree in their front yard and had brought by some the previous day and they were delicious. She managed to get the coffee machine working after bugging Harry for reminders on which button did what, and poured two cups for them, setting one next to the stove for Harry as he finished up cooking.
They ate outside on the patio, a pair of sunglasses balanced on Harry’s curls as they basked in the morning sunshine. “It’s so quiet,” he said to her after setting down his fork, a finished plate in front of him. “Like our friends, but it’s nice to be just us for a bit.”
“Mhm,” she hummed, scooting closer to him on the bench at the table so he could place his arm around her shoulders. “Now I can love on you any time I want.”
“Oh?” Harry ducked down and looked at her, a coy smile on his face. “And you couldn’t before? I seem to remember plenty of loving—“
“Shut up,” she said, swatting at his chest, and he chuckled. “They just always made fun of me, or you. Now no one is going to be whining about us making out in the pool.”
Harry kissed her temple, and then lifted his coffee cup to his lips. “Right about that, love.” She picked up her abandoned peach and took a bite, the juices dribbling down her chin. “What do you want to do today? Swim or go into town?”
Nora considered the options, before deciding on town. “Can we rent bikes again? And I want a gelato.”
“Sure, baby. Want to go get changed and I’ll wash up?” She nodded, pressing a kiss to his lips chastely before scampering into the house. She took a quick shower, wanting to start the day fresh, and put some sunscreen on her skin which had grown darker from the sun over the past few weeks. Harry came into their room as she was fumbling through their clothes, trying to find a pair of specific pair of shorts.
“Have you seen my denim shorts?” She asked him, not even looking up. “The ones with the longer fringe at the back?”
She felt his hands on her hips, his chin coming to rest on her shoulder. “No, not since you wore them last. Gotta be here somewhere—you didn’t put them in the wash, did you?”
His longer hair tickled at her cheek and she smiled at the feeling. “I didn’t. Fuck—I’ll find them. Go get ready, you menace.”
With a squeeze to her hips, he moved away to the bathroom so he could wash his face and brush his teeth. Nora found her shorts at the back of the drawer, and pulled that and a white tank top on, keeping her clothes simple and light so she didn’t sweat through them immediately. Harry ended up in a white t-shirt and grey trousers, a hair clip attached to the waist for his longer locks, a handkerchief tied around his neck that she tugged on to bring his lips to hers.
He fiddled with her hand on the center console as he drove into town, the radio on low volume filling the silence in the car, windows open as they passed houses on the hill. She watched the sights go by, wondering how such a beautiful place could exist. They parked the car right outside the old city walls and walked the distance to the bike shop where they had rented them before.
“Due biciclette per favore,” Harry said to the man in the shop. Nora thumbed through a guidebook on the counter as Harry spoke to the man, their conversation in Italian passing right over her head.
“Per te e la tua ragazza?” The man replied.
“Sì.”
“Lei è piuttosto bella.”
“Tieni le mani lontane da lei!” Harry laughed as he said the words, some joke probably passing between them.
“Sì, sì, certo. Lei è troppo buona per te, lo sai.”
“Lo so.”
Nora swung a leg over her bike and pushed her sunglasses into place, waiting for Harry to get himself together behind her. “What were you two talking about?” She asked as he adjusted his pants so they didn’t get caught on the chains.
“You,” he responded nonchalantly.
“Me?”
He looked up at her and nodded. “He said you were gorgeous, and I told him to keep his hands off my girl. He said you were too good for me.”
Nora scoffed and pushed off the street, pedaling with Harry next to her. “Got that the wrong way ‘round.”
He gave her a smile, and then moved into tourist mode, pointing out the landmarks he had shown her. He knew how much she loved history and that she wouldn’t mind hearing it all again, so he told her stories about the old jail cells and the city walls, the wide gravel tree-lined paths full of other pedestrians and dogs on leashes. They talked about Italian politics, since Harry actually read the newspaper and kept up on the news. He told her old stories about his family visiting and Harry getting lost in the streets, before finally finding his mom at a gelato shop where he went because he wanted something sweet. When they had made a loop around the city, they turned into the streets, carefully maneuvering through the crowds and avoiding the streets with the expensive shops, where people gathered. Instead, they stuck to the back roads and they’d stop every once in a while so Harry could take photos on a film camera he had bought before they’d left the States. He wanted to take it up as a hobby, and thought where was a better place to try it out than Italy?
Nora sent photos of the yellow and tan exteriors of the buildings to send to her mother, one in an endless stream of photos that made her mom jealous of her trip. When they got hungry, they stopped for gelato, and sat outside at a shop next to a bunch of kids who were speaking rapidly in Italian. Harry kept stealing bites from Nora’s, but she shoved his hands away, reminding him that he got his own for a reason. His fingers were sticky when he pulled her chin towards him to kiss her, and his lips tasted like his lemon gelato.
They ditched the bikes in favor of walking around, and they wove in and out of the shops, Nora trying on clothes that Harry picked out before objecting to the price and refusing to let Harry pay for them for her. They tried on sunglasses at one of the street vendors and Harry got some, a pair of brown wide-frame glasses that he tucked into his shirt. He bought a leather notebook that resembled the ones that he wrote lyrics in, and Nora decided to get one of her own, telling Harry she needed to start journaling to remember all the good memories they shared. He took photos of her against a pink building, smelling flowers in a courtyard, and just walking in front of him. In his eyes, it was impossible to not feel beautiful, Nora thought to herself.
Somehow they ended up in an Italian lingerie shop, much to Harry’s joy. “Baby, pleaseee…” He held a white lace set up in front of her, the material mostly mesh and lace, basically full see through. Most times, Nora might have refused him, but after a day spent solely in his company, Nora was wrapped around his finger, just as he was around hers. And the look in his eyes of desire and mischief had her smiling at him.
“Fine,” she replied, and tugged him back to the dressing room with her, much to the amusement of the saleswoman.
He stood outside of the room while she changed, pushing off her shorts and shirt and toying with the delicate material. “Got it on?” He asked, voice low through the flimsy door.
“Almost.” She tugged at the bra straps, situating the cups on her chest. In the mirror, her hair was a mess of sweat and wind, cascading around her shoulders in curls, her face flushed from the sun. She pushed a strand behind her ear and hoped Harry would like it. “Okay,” she said, unlocking the door.
“Thank god, didn’t know if I—fuck.” His words stopped the moment he stepped inside and set his eyes on her body. Quickly, he shut the door behind him, locking it, their bodies close in the narrow dressing room. Nora stood there as his eyes criss-crossed over her body, taking in the sight in front of him. Her shy smile, her sunkissed skin, brown eyes that stared up at him. “Cherry,” he mumbled, her nickname falling from his lips, dripping with desire as he stepped towards her. “You have to let me buy this.”
She leveled her gaze to his, trying to play with him, her favorite activity. “And why is that?”
His fingers ran over the see-through lace, the pebbles of her nipples visible through the material. “Because I can’t promise I won’t rip it off you later, and I know how much you hate it when I ruin your underwear.”
Nora’s breath caught in her throat at his words, body keening under the his touch. “I’ll allow it,” she replied, voice hoarse in her throat. “As long as you let me choose where you fuck me.”
Harry’s lip tucked between his teeth at her words. “Yeah? Want to choose where I take you?” She nodded, and his fingers drifted over her skin, barely touching it and raising goosebumps in his path. “It’s a deal, baby. Now take it off so I can buy it and get you home.”
Harry followed Nora on her heels, her laughter bouncing off the walls of the house as he kept trying to grab at her hips as she moved through the hallways. Her curls bouncing as she swept your head back and forth, scampering away every time he got closer to her. Seeing her dark hair flutter against the white walls had Harry feeling like he was in a movie, moving in slow motion after the love of his life, barely able to keep her in his grasp.
They didn’t bother closing the doors or the windows in the bedroom, Harry pressing her against the wall with a gasp from her mouth. His lips danced down her neck, sucking and pulling at her skin, his name wet on her tongue. Hands pulled at his hair and fell to his shirt, her fingers scrambling push it up before he leaned back to help her, his handkerchief going with it. When it was off, her mouth attached to his skin, hot lips searing through Harry’s nerves, a rush of adrenaline at the feeling of her on him.
“Nora,” he begged, fingers digging into the curve of her ass, tugging her hips towards his. Without hesitating, her teeth brushed over the mark she had made on him, making him hiss. “Baby, please.” His words were raw and rough, desperate to have her. He could never get enough of her, the way she made him feel, the sounds she made in his arms, the way she looked up at him under long eyelashes, a coy smile that begged for more.
“I need to go change into my new lingerie,” she said, nudging at his chin. It was a soft movement, one that just asked him to stay close to her, and he loved it.
“I know I said that,” he replied, pulling at her skin with his hands, loving how she gasped at the cold of his rings, “but now I really don’t give a fuck.”
“Hmm,” she murmured, running a finger down his chest. “But I do.”
With a sigh, Harry let go of her waist, letting her drop to the ground. She kissed his jaw before turning away, the bag from the lingerie store in her hands as she went into the bathroom. Harry ran a hand down his face, heart fluttering in his chest. He just needed her. It was a carnal need, something beyond reason, the very same feeling that had lingered inside of him since the moment he first touched her. It never left him—the desire to have her close, to touch her skin, to make her moan his name. He was addicted to it, and he had no plans to quit.
He fell to the bed, head hitting the pillows, and stared at the closed door. Behind it, he imagined Nora naked, fumbling with the straps and the lace. He easily conjured the image of her in it earlier and he cursed himself for not taking her in that dressing room. Who gave a fuck if anyone heard them.
“Taking forever in there,” he called out to her, getting antsy from his spot on the bed. He had propped his head up on the pillows, giving him a perfect view of the door.
“Somebody’s impatient.” Her voice was music to his ears, sweet and rough.
He scratched at his hair, pulling at the long strands as he waited. “What can I say, love? I’m—holy fucking hell.”
She kept doing that, interrupting his stream of words by opening the door and standing there, naked and bare for him except for the flimsy material covering her body. The white lace clung to her skin, the picture of innocence that he knew she was anything but. Somehow that made it even more alluring, the dichotomy of the delicate lace and the coy smile on her face. Harry sat up and let his eyes trail over her skin, the rise and fall of her curves, the way her breasts strained against the edge of the bra, gaze following the V of the underwear to where he wanted her most.
He swallowed with difficulty, throat suddenly dry at the sight of her, sunlight from outside making her skin glow in front of him. “Cherry…” He trailed off, unable to finish his sentence, completely overwhelmed by her.
But then she opened her sinful, delicious mouth, and set Harry’s body ablaze. “I want you to fuck me on the kitchen counter.”
He practically choked. “What?”
She shifted, moving towards him like an animal prowling its prey. “I want you to fuck me on the kitchen counters. The same ones where you make me breakfast every morning. You said I could choose where, right?” When her fingers drifted across his forehead lightly, Harry keened into her, desperate for her touch. She bent her head and whispered low in his ear, “Well I want it on the counters. Every counter.”
That had Harry in motion. He stood, pulling her up so that her legs were around his waist, feet clasped at his lower back. Her hands threaded through his hair and pulled, making his neck tip back as she kissed him. Harry moved through the house blind, unable to see anything but her, but somehow he made it down the stairs without tripping, through the narrow hallways, and finally to the kitchen, the afternoon sunlight hitting the tile perfectly. The windows were open and you could hear the breeze, the soft chirp of the birds, the hint of cicadas. He was going to give her her wish—to fuck her on every one of these counters, fill this kitchen with memories of her moaning against him, let anyone who neared the house hear her call his name.
He dropped her to the counter closest to him, her bare bottom except for the lace panties she wore hitting the smooth granite with a thud. “Want me to fuck you on the counters?” He mumbled, lips tugging at hers, hands cupping her face as he kissed her. Without even meaning to, he pushed his hips into her clothed center and he was suddenly thankful for the lower height of the counters, because it meant she was the perfect height for him. “I can do that, baby.”
Nora’s lips were a dark pink when he pulled away, eyes blown out with desire, hair a mess behind her shoulders from his hands. “H,” she breathed, pushing at his pants, “please.”
“‘m coming, love,” he told her, pushing off his trousers so he was in nothing but his briefs. Then, he dropped to his knees. He wanted to taste her first, he decided. And then he was going to make her come until she physically couldn’t anymore, barely giving her time to recover. They’d talked about it before—overstimulation. She had mentioned that she liked it, like being able to barely think as he touched her, like it when he fucked her from one orgasm to the next without pause. He had been rolling it over in his head, considering a time to experiment with more, to see how far she could go.
Now, he decided, was the time.
His fingers danced up her legs, and Nora gasped at the feeling. “As much as I love this set, it needs to come off now.” He punctuated the sentence with a searing tug at her inner thighs with his lips, sucking her skin into his mouth and making a pop sound when he let go. It made her squirm on the countertops and her hands were beginning to get wet from sweat, the combination of the heat and the feeling of Harry’s hands on her making her body temperature rise.
The lace slid against the granite as he pulled it off of her, Nora lifting her hips just enough for him to be able to clear the curve of her ass. When her panties were on the floor, Nora let her thighs fall open and she just sat there, skin aflame from Harry’s gaze.
“Beautiful,” he breathed, fingers brushing around her pussy; a whine leaving her lips that made Harry smile. “Squirmin’ for me, hmm?”
He knew she loved it when he talked, she’d told him many, many times, and so he had thrown his filter out long ago. Now, he said whatever popped into his brain, and usually it was a mess of compliments and teases about how much he wanted her, because none of it was lie. Hands clasped around the back of her knees and tugged so that her pussy was on the edge of the counter, the cold granite on her hot skin. She looked utterly delectable, pink lips waiting for him, the soft rolls of her stomach fluttering with each breath, her breasts heaving in her bra. “H…oh, god.” When his lips attached to her clit, one of her hands threaded through his hair and tugged his face closer to her, the stubble on his chin brushing across her slit. “Fuck,” she panted, rolling her hips for more of the roughness, needing anything she would give him.
Harry kneaded her hips in his hands, loving the weight of his rings on her smooth and sensitive skin. “Feel good?” He asked, licking over her nub and listening to her keen, wet and breathy echos of yes floating through the air. Then he couldn’t torture her anymore, the sight of her hole clenching around nothing just sending him into a tailspin. So he moved one of his hands and pressed his index finger to her slit, the callused touch rough against her but just what she needed. She sighed at the pressure and Harry watched in delight as her wetness let him slide right in, all the way up to the ring on his finger.
She bucked against him, demanding more, and Harry dove back in, pumping in and out of her with his one finger and curling inside of her as he devoured her clit with his mouth. He rolled her nub with his tongue and then sucked, letting his teeth brush against it and smiling as she shook against him. “More,” she begged, pushing towards him, her one hand on the counter barely able to support her quivering body.
So he added a second finger, his middle finger joining his index inside of her, and she sighed at the stretch. “Fucking drenched,” he mumbled as he watched her eyes flutter shut at the feeling. “So wet for me, baby. Can you hear it?”
All she could do. was nod, the sensations overwhelming her—his fingers inside of her, the slickness of her juices as he pumped hard and fast into her, curling at her rear walls. The way he played with her clit, torturing her as he licked over her, sucking and pulling, the stubble on his chin rough against her skin. It was fucking heaven, and she never wanted it to stop. “Gonna come,” she whined, clenching around his fingers and in his hair, fingernails scraping against his scalp.
“Want it,” he mumbled against her clit, the vibrations making her back arch. “Come for me, princess. Please? Want to feel you come on my fingers. Want to watch it drip out of you. Come on, baby.”
Nora couldn’t control it anymore, and she was coming in a second, her body shaking and stuttering on the counter, hand sliding for hold on something, but failing. Harry held her hips in place so she didn’t slide off the counter, and anchored her there as he pumped her through her orgasm, licking at her clit until she was begging for him to stop. Her walls fluttered around his fingers and he loved it, but what he loved even more was removing his fingers from her and the strands of her come that he saw when he pulled away. He moved his lips from her clit to her slit, and licked over her hole, the sight of her quivering exactly what he wanted. When he pulled his lips away he watched a bit of come drip from her hole, weepy and red, and could barely look away.
Then he moved his fingers to her mouth, tapping them to her bottom lip to ask her to open. Which she did. Happily. She bobbed her head like she would on his dick and Harry about came right there and then. But he couldn’t—he had a task at hand that he hadn’t completed.
His head swiveled around the kitchen, counting quickly. “There’s four open counters in here,” he said eyes finding hers again. “Want you to come on every one of them.”
Her eyes widened, processing what he was saying and asking of her. Permission for him to go more intense than he had in the past. But instead of fear of discomfort running through her body, all she felt was desire. “Only if I get you inside of me for all of them,” she replied, taunting him, seeing how long he could last for her.
“Oh baby,” he said, coming to full height and brushing her sweaty hair off of her forehead. “As if I’d pass up the opportunity to feel you come around me.”
In an instant he was moving her to the next counter, the dreaded coffee machine to the right of her and the fridge on the left. Their lips found each other in a mess of teeth and tongue, Nora’s hands pushing at his briefs and Harry unclasping her bra, desperate to see her bare for him. When her breasts fell, he traded her lips for her nipples, rolling them into his mouth. At the same time, Nora had gotten his briefs down enough for his cock to poke out and her hand was on him immediately, tugging at a pace that was going to make him come if he didn’t stop her.
“Nor,” he said, pulling on her hand so it wasn’t on his dick, but instead on his back. “Goin’ to make me come if you keep that up.”
“Then how about you fuck me?”
She knew how to push all of his buttons and adored doing it. It drove Harry crazy, that she could make him beg for her with just a handful of words—the control she had over him was unlike anything he’d ever experienced before, and he loved every second of it. “Legs up, baby,” he told her, tapping on her knees. She followed his directions immediately, shifting closer to him and pulling her knees up and clasping her feet around his middle.
Harry knew he wouldn’t need much lubricant, but he decided to add a bit more just so he didn’t hurt her—he knew she was sensitive. So he let spit fall from his lips, the slickness of it landing right on his dick. He pumped it one, covering his length, and then he nudged his tip into her. Nora gasped his name immediately, and his eyes moved to hers, not wanting to miss his favorite moment—when he pushed into her. Which he did, in one fluid motion that had her curling into him.
She was wet, insanely wet from her orgasm and the build-up, and tight, her walls clenching around him as he sat inside of her, flush to the hilt. Nora’s arm wrapped around his shoulder and pressed her head to the crook of his neck, unable to hold herself up anymore, which Harry didn’t mind in the slightest. He loved it when she hung onto him, her trust in him enough to let him control their movements. Harry’s hands moved to her hips and he held them steady as he pulled back and slid back into her, a guttural groan leaving his lips at the feeling of her fluttering around him. “God, baby, you feel so good. Made for me, you know? How did I get so lucky?”
His words were a mess and he didn’t care; he knew she wouldn’t judge what he said. When her fingernails dug into his skin he took it as a sign for more, and so he set about his task—making his girl come again. She liked it fast and hard, loved it when he hit her back walls and made her scream. So he would give her exactly what she wanted.
Harry drove into her at a pace that would probably leave bruises on her thighs, but she didn’t care in the slightest. She panted into his ear, his name echoing around them as his dick pushed in and out of her. Ever since they’d gone bare the first time they had never gone back, them both adoring how close it made them feel. And in moments like this, with Nora draped over his body, all of her weight balanced on him, him pushing into her fast and deep, it was as if they were inside one another.
When Nora clamored at his back, hands pulling at his taught skin and a scream ripped through her throat, he knew he found her g-spot. “That it, baby? Hmm?” She nodded furiously into his skin, teeth coming down on the muscle of his shoulder and Harry grunted from the feeling. “’S mine, yeah?”
“Yours,” she moaned, and then she rolled her hips in a slight circle and Harry faltered at the feeling. “Yours, Harry, I’m yours.”
His head hung on her shoulder, and from there he could cast his eyes down and see his dick entering her barely, their skin slapping against each other. “Holy shit,” he said through clenched teeth. “I don’t know how much longer I can hold off.”
Nora took the situation into her own hands, finding the ability to hold herself up. She pulled away from his neck and rested on one hand, shifting her weight so that she could slither her hand down the length of her body. Her fingers rubbed at her clit and Harry was captured by the sight, her fingers rolling across her wetness as he slammed into her, chasing their orgasms. “I’m close,” she said, walls bearing down on him.
“Me too,” he said, head tilting back. “I’ll come when you do.”
She nodded, knowing how much he loved it when she came and that it usually made him come immediately. It was just one example of how much his body was obsessed with her, his own desire intrinsically tied up in hers. “Come on, love,” she looked up at him, capturing his attention. “Make me come?”
He pulled her lips to his and drove into her at a pace unmatched by his previous one, slamming into her with his full force, sliding into her so fast he could barely keep himself up. He was pushing his weight into her, the hand not on her waist clenching the edge of the countertop. “Come for me, baby,” he mumbled, “want to come in you. Please, Nora, please.”
With one more circle of her hand on her clit she faltered, a scream of his name ripping through her lips and he let it, loving how it reverberated in the room. That she didn’t have to hide it, that he could have it all. She clenched around him and it made his breath choke in his throat, hands curling as he came. Ropes of come inside of her, coating her walls, panting against her lips as he kissed her messily, just wanting to be close to her.
When he regained his normal breathing and feeling in his body, he leaned back slightly, not enough where he pulled out from her, but just enough to where he could look at her. “Gonna move ya,” he said, arms coming around her back. She nodded and held onto him like a koala as he lifted her, moving to a countertop a few paces away, on the other side of the stove. He stayed inside of her the whole time and even though he was softer than before, he wasn’t fully soft because the feeling of her walls fluttering and his tip shifting inside of her as he stepped had him hissing through his teeth.
“Sensitive?” She asked, running a hand through his hair.
“Worried abut me?”
She smiled at him, a soft one full of love and adoration. “Not worried. Just want to make sure it’s not too much.”
“Fuck no,” he replied, shaking his head. “’S perfect. Gonna make you come around me as I get hard,” he told her, and she bit into her lip at the thought. “Like the sound of that?”
“Yeah,” she said, elbows resting on his shoulders. “Like it a lot.”
Harry kissed her, licking into her mouth and savoring the taste of her, sweet like honey on his tongue. The way her hands pulled on his hair, not minding that it was sweaty and a disaster, just wanted something to hold onto. “Wish we’d brought some toys,” he mumbled when he pulled away, the idea of making her come with him inside and vibrator on her clit suddenly filling his imagination.
Her eyebrows shot up. “Why didn’t you?”
“Had to fit all your goddamn swimsuits into our bags that didn’t quite fit, did it?”
Nora laughed, her eyes crinkling at the sides. “You love my swimsuits, you ass.”
She was right. He loved them, the way they barely covered her body, the different colors and patterns on her skin that he got to pull off after their time in the pool—or if he was lucky, while they were in the pool. He decided he’d see if he could fuck her in the pool tomorrow. He planned on taking her every day of the week while they were here. “I do, baby. Love ‘em almost as much as I love you.” Then, he pushed two of his fingers into his mouth, wetting them on his tongue and letting her watch him, eyes never leaving him.
With that, his fingers pushed between their hips, her softening her back so that his hand could slide against her. And he set a brutal pace immediately, the wetness from his spit meaning he could move against her furiously. The feeling of her clenching around him as he began to draw her closer to her high, her body beyond sensitive after two orgasms, was enough for him to be nearly hard immediately. “H,” she breathed, head lolling back on her neck at the feeling of him rubbing against her.
She was shaking as he rolled her clit between his fingers, and then made a counter-clockwise circle, finger tips brushing above her slit where they were connected. That spot in particular made her moan, a desperate sound that made him want more. He was desperate for her to come, wanting to see her fall apart around him again, the sight one that he wished could go in a museum. Every museum in Italy should have a photo of her when she came.
He made a mental note to grab his camera the next time they had sex—he wanted to immortalize the sight.
When she sharply yelped, hips bucking into his, his eyes flickered across her. “Too much?”
She shook her head, lifting it so she could look at him. “Need more. Please, H.”
“What do you need baby?”
Nora’s hand drifted from his bicep to his neck, securely fastening to its side, the pressure making him zero in on her. “Need you to fuck me again. Can you do that?”
“Fuck me.” His groan was drawn-out and low in his throat. “Yeah, I can do that.” It was like her demand had made him hard again, his body wanting to do nothing less than please her. “Want me like this again, angel?”
“Mhm,” she hummed, unable to form words, but the sound was enough for him to know she did.
“Your wish is my command.” And then he drew back, using their come from before and the slickness of her juices as lubricant as he slid back into her, the feeling of him moving inside of her making her let out a sudden cry. After just sitting inside of her, moving against her was everything he needed. “Goin’ to go slower, okay? Need to last for you.”
She nodded furiously, body tightening in his hold. Her fingers pressed into his throat more and he didn’t even think she was doing it on purpose, but he wasn’t complaining. Her thumb was on his Adam’s apple, her other fingers clasped around the back of his neck. He shifted his hand away from her clit, ignoring her whine, and adjusted her hand so that her palm was situated squarely around the front of his neck.
Her eyes widened. “Too much?” He asked, checking in with her as he returned to her clit, rubbing against her bud with his thumb.
“No,” she replied, tensing her hand experimentally. “It’s hot, actually.”
Harry smiled, pulling her clit with his thumb and forefinger in response and her hips jumped. “I like it.”
“Just...stop me if it’s too much, okay? I don’t want to hurt you.” Her voice was sweet, and Harry loved it—how she wanted to make sure she didn’t hurt him.
“I will,” he promised. She squeezed again, a bit tighter that time, and he let out a strangled moan. He’d never tried this with anyone else, but he had to admit, he liked it more than he had expected. He pulled his attention from her hand around his neck and to where his dick pushed in and out of her, trying to hold back his tempo so he could last for her. Instead of going fast, he settled for going deep, pressing every inch of her pussy, and rolling her clit fast. The combination had her squirming, hips almost pushing away from him. “Good, baby?”
“So good,” she breathed out, squeezing happily at his throat. “Might come soon. It’s so much—fuck, H—I can’t…”
The sight of her eyes fluttering and breasts bouncing as he pressed into her was tattooed into his brain. “That’s it, love. Come for me.”
Nora swiveled her hips slightly, chasing his touch, fingernails cutting into his skin at the back of his throat. “I—“ she choked on her words, head falling back as she came, it creeping up on her this time. The intensity of it, though, was unmatched, her whole body shaking so much that Harry had to pull her against him and hold her so she didn’t bang her head. He continued to push into her slowly, eyes clenched to try and hold back from coming at the feeling of her holding his dick inside of her like a vice.
When her body had calmed, Harry still hadn’t stopped, making good on his promise to fuck her through her orgasm and into the next one. “Can I bend you over for the next one?” He asked her, lips on her ear as he spoke, words low and rough.
“Y—yes,” she said, words chalky in her throat. They both needed a different position, something to change things up.
So Harry pulled out of her, both hissing from the loss of him, and he quickly carried her to the second to last countertop. She stood unsteadily on her feet, so he held her fast, not wanting her to fall. Nora bent over on her own, the cold granite on her bare breasts making her gasp. Harry ran his hands down her back, pushing her hair to the side so he could see her skin. “You okay?” He asked, kneading her sides to calm her down.
“Mhm,” she hummed, reaching her hand back to hold onto his. “Want you.”
The desire she had for him matched his, and it was in moments like these that he was thankful for it. He brushed his dick over her slit, it weepy and puffy from her multiple orgasms, their mixed come coating her skin. With his eyes on her face to make sure it was okay, he pushed in in one motion. The new angle had him hitting a different spot inside of her, one that made Nora dig her fingers into Harry’s hand and her toes curl. Harry’s head flopped back, panting heavily from the feeling. “So wet,” he rasped, “feels so good. Shit, baby, you feel so good.”
He swept his hands across her skin before he started to push in and out of her, his pace picking up as he fucked into her. She was still reeling from her last orgasm, much less the two before it. There were two more that he wanted from her, two more that she said could give. He wanted them here, like this.
All of a sudden, her hand moved his, relocating it from her side to her ass, his palm landing on one of her cheeks. “Want me to pull on you here?” He asked, kneading into the skin. He loved her ass, loved how they pressed against his hips when he pushed in and out of her. “Want me to spank you, baby?”
“Please,” she pleaded, voice raw. “Please, please, please.”
They’d done it a few times before and each time she’d loved it and he hadn’t gone too hard. So he decided he would give her a few, just to help bring her closer to her orgasm. “Okay, angel.” He had his rings on, so he decided not to go too hard, not wanting to hurt her. After rolling her skin in his hand, pulling her towards his hips as he pushed into her, he raise his hand and let it fall. The slap made her mewl, a delicious sound that had Harry bending and pressing kisses down her back. She shivered under his touch and Harry thumbed at her sides, trying to settle her. “Good?”
“Good,” she answered. She pushed her hips insistently against his and hummed.
“Sensitive?” He wanted to know where she was, how to make her come, how to give her what she needed.
“Yeah.” Her words were shaky as she tried to focus on him. “I—I don’t know if I can do two more, H.”
Harry didn’t mind, he just wanted as much as she could give him. “That’s okay, love. I’ll take as much as you can do.” With a tender kiss to her spine, he pulled her hips towards him, creating a bit of space between her thighs and the cabinets below them. Just enough to be able to sneak his hand between them and rub at her clit.
It had her shrieking, the sudden additional pressure sending her into overdrive. Harry was about there himself—he was an orgasm deep and barely fighting off a second one, trying to focus on anything other than his own pleasure to try and hold himself at bay. Instead, he watched her face contort with pleasure, her flushed cheeks rest on the counter tops, her arms unable to keep her body up anymore. She was holding onto the side of the counter for dear life as he fucked her, and he just hoped he wasn’t hurting her, pushing her too far. “Are you okay?” He asked softly, checking in with her.
She bobbed her head in a nod. “Good. Close. Can’t—can’t hold on.”
“Don’t need to, baby,” he reminded her, rubbing his fingers into her shoulder blade to release some pressure. His hips pushed into hers at a steady pace, his other hand forming circles on his clit. Another spank, he decided, would send her over the edge.
Perhaps it was the shock of it, or the intensity of the pleasure coursing through her, because she came immediately. She choked on air, knuckles holding onto the counter top that they turned white. Harry pulled his hand away and shuddered, barely containing himself as he fucked her through it. He truly didn’t know if he could last enough for her to come again. He was dribbling pre-cum into her, weeping into her, his body taught and ready to come if anyone asked him to. Could barely hold himself together, much less for long enough for her to come again.
So he bent down, pressing his chest to her back, loving kisses to her skin. “What do you want to do, baby?”
Shakily, she uttered a single word. “Another.”
He picked his head up, shocked. He thought it was too much for her. “Really?” She just nodded, and so he pulled out of her slowly, the ridges of his dick brushing against every nook and cranny of her pussy. She whimpered at the emptiness, but Harry picked her up, her pliant in his arms. “Gotcha, love. I’ve got you.” Her cheek rested on his shoulder, exhausted, fingers crawling all over him like she always did when she was fucked out. “Are you sure you want to keep going?”
“H,” she mumbled, “told you I want another. So give me another.”
He couldn’t help but chuckle at her bossiness, it never failing even when she was tired. Or perhaps it was stronger when she was like this. “Anything for you.” The last countertop was the island, and so he could lay her out flat, let her body stretch in front of him. Her hair cascaded across the granite and he didn’t know if there was a single more beautiful sight in the world. “I don’t know how much longer I can hold off,” he expressed honestly as he thumbed at her clit, the feeling making her hiss.
“Give me whatever you have left,” she said, reaching for his cheek. Softly, she brushed a thumb across it, and the tenderness of the motion grounded Harry.
“Love you so much,” he breathed out as he looked at her. “So much that I don’t even know how to express it.”
A tear leaked from the corner of her eyes and Harry brushed it away. “Love you too,” she told him. “Just as much.” Her fingers pulled at his hand that was resting on her belly and slowly she kissed each of his fingers, a smile drifting onto his face.
Outside, the sun was setting, and the orange hues dances across Nora’s skin like a painting, coating her in evening light. She was breathtaking in front of him. “Come here,” he mumbled, reaching for her, “want you close.”
Shakily, she pressed herself up towards him and Harry helped her. As much as he loved seeing her stretched out in front of him, he wanted to hold her for this last one, to have her as close as possible. He gathered her up in his arms, and then he nudged his tip, which was so sensitive that the mere touch of her slit made him growl, into her. She scratched at his shoulder blades, angry red marks that he would look at later left on his skin as he pushed in fully.
Harry bit onto his lip, it being the only thing that could anchor him. Just one more, he reminded himself, and then he could come. She needed one more.
“Not going to last long,” she mumbled, her words wet on his neck as she licked at his skin. “Too sensitive.”
He swept her hair into a ponytail so he could smooth kisses across the top of her shoulder. “Me either.”
Her knees squeezed at his hips, anchoring him against her as he pushed into her. She was wet and hot and clenching down on him so tightly that Harry was panting each of his breaths. He was going tor remember this for the rest of time, he thought to himself, this feeling of her around him. “H.” His initial was a prayer on her lips, uttered over and over again as he drove into her. His hands held her close, covering her in his touch, pressing her as close as he could get.
They were making love, sex long forgotten, focused only on how they felt for each other. Nora pulled his lips in for a kiss and they lost themselves in it, passionately nudging at one another with tongues and teeth. Harry pulled on her bottom lip and she giggled, before surging forward, kissing his hot and heavy.
It was overwhelming, the feeling of her everywhere on his skin. “Love you,” he mumbled, thoughts spiraling, “love you so much. God, love you, Nora. Love you. Fuck, I love you.” It was all he could process, the only words he could conjure up.
She didn’t care though, she just wanted him. As he rocked into her, she held his head close to hers, their foreheads resting against one another. She could feel her orgasm rising inside of her, it barely far away after how many she had experienced. Her body was exhausted, but yet she wanted one more, she constantly wanted more with him, for it to never end. This feeling of being absorbed in his body, the closeness of him to her, the way he touched her and said her name and panted in her ear as he pushed into her. “Kiss me,” she whispered. “Kiss me and I’ll come.”
Harry found her lips immediately, reconnecting them in a promise. And when he did, Nora lost it, her body shuddering and sighing in his arms, legs shaking around his waist. She was pliant, putty against him, sinking into him, and he loved every second of it.
And that’s when he let go, coming inside of her harder than he ever had before, unable to hold back for one more second. He couldn’t move against her and just held her to him as he came, painting her walls with ropes of come that left him with a growl in her ears. It overtook his entire body, the feeling of coming inside of her after waiting for so long, his bones rattling from the sensation.
When he finally stopped, they were both shaking from sensitivity and the nips of cool air that passed through the room, nighttime settling outside. “Want me to pull out?” He asked, not knowing which would hurt more—being in or out of her.
“No,” she said, shaking her head against his chest, where she rested. “Just…stay.”
So he stayed there, holding her to him, still inside of her, as they both caught their breaths and came down from their intense highs. The cicadas chirped and trees rustled, the sounds of the hills of Italy floating through the room. The air was heavy with sweat and desire, and Harry adored it because all he could smell was her—her sweat, her perfume, the shampoo they shared because he had run out. The smell of her on his skin, his favorite scent in the world.
“Okay,” she finally said, words dry on her tongue.
“Pull out?”
“Yeah.”
Slowly, he pulled his hips from hers and his dick left her. She felt empty without him there, but at the same time it felt good, her body finally calming fully. “How about a bath?” He asked her, brushing at the sweat on her forehead, pushing away her hair that fell into her face. “Soothe your muscles a bit.”
She nodded, and Harry picked her up, her body still sore and exhausted. With her attached to him, he climbed the stairs, both of them fully naked, but he didn’t have a care in the world. Just wanted to make sure she was okay. When they reached their room, he kicked open the door to the bathroom, and set her on the toilet.
“You should pee, angel.”
Nora nodded. They’d long ago gotten over the discomfort of peeing in front of someone else. He turned to the tub, messing with knobs to get the temperature just right as she peed next to him. “Want it hot,” she told him.
He looked back at her, her cheek resting on her palm as she watched him. “Like, really hot? Or kinda hot?”
“Somewhere in between?”
He didn’t know what that meant, but he’d endeavor to find out for her. The temperature was about as good as he could get it, he decided, and so he turned back to her. “Done?” She nodded, and he pulled her leg towards him. She flushed the toilet, and then let him tug her into his lap, her legs fastening around him again as he rose to full height. Gingerly, he stepped into the filling tub, and when he finally sat, the water reached midway full. “How’s that, baby?”
Her head rested on his chest, right over the swallows, and she sighed. “Perfect.”
Running his hands up and down her back to calm her, Harry thought about nothing but her. How she consumed his every thought and moment. Was that normal? Did everyone feel like this? “I’ve never felt like this about anyone else,” he mumbled, lips resting on her temple.
“Me either.”
“Is it…normal?”
Her fingers danced up his biceps, across his tattoos like she loved to do. “I don’t know. But I don’t want it to change.”
He reached forward and turned off the water, before settling back, letting her body follow his. She rested against his chest, fully flush against him. “I won’t let it.”
She kissed his swallow, a tenderness that made him almost sob. It was moments like these, the small ones of her curled up against him, their minds and bodies quiet, consumed in nothing but one another, that his love for her overwhelmed him. “Who thought I’d fall in love with a frat boy.”
Harry laughed, picking her wet hair up and massaging her neck. “Not just any frat boy,” he reminded her.
Nora shifted her chin up, so that they were looking at each other. “Harry, my frat boy.”
“Nora,” he replied, her name his favorite word, “my love.”
They sat there until the water grew cold, and then he picked her up and carried her to bed, not bothering to dress themselves in anything. And then they fell asleep, bodies intertwined in the sheets, the clear Italian night wrapping around them like a cocoon, not wanting to disturb them from their world. A world filled with nothing but one another.

“Amethyst and baguette taste great together!” -Cyne, when asked if she likes dogs.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here is Cyne, a scythe/bow legend!
Her scythe is named Beauté and her bow is Désespoir.
I’ll finish these sketches in the near future and release lore but for now here are her signatures!~
Beauté - Pink Crystals
Nsig: Cyne will grab diagonally with the blade of her scythe, crystallising the victim upon impact. Without any further input, Cyne will jump and kick them diagonally away from her. She can kick up or if the player turns around, she will throw them behind her and downwards.
Ssig: Cyne will throws herself and the scythe forward and it will return to the same position she started at like a boomerang. If it hits, it will grab one person and , where she will throw them forward with a crystal effect. It is a long signature that makes her vulnerable by staying in one place.
Dsig: Cyne spins the scythe around her once, crystallising the area, then spins it again the other way breaking the crystal.
Désespoir - Dark Violet Crystals
Nsig: Cyne shoots an arrow straight up. If it hits it crystallises the victim and she shoots another, weaker arrow at them.
Ssig: Cyne shoots an arrow straight ahead. If it hits, it will crystallise the victim and throw them forward. The player can also choose to throw them back towards her via backwards input
Dsig: Cyne jumps in the air and shoots an arrow diagonally down that causes a crystal explosion. Charging will slow her jump (sort of the way Cross’s nsig witn gauntlet charges)

Asuri, Dunk Master
I may say this a lot, but Asuri, when played right, can be absolutely broken. I guess, really, if any character is played properly, they can be considered broken too.
Katars: Katars are a lot of fun to play. I don’t believe I’ve covered them before, but I also don’t see very much worth in going over one complicated combo. So instead, I’ll talk about how to effectively use Asuri’s sigs. Her nsig is very powerful. If used over an edge, you can easily dunk somebody in orange far enough that they can’t come back. It can be easily used after a nlight, as a quick, almost inescapable combo. The ssig isn’t quite as easy to pull off, but it’s very showy and interesting to watch. You should probably link it up after a slight, nlight, then Chase Dodge behind them and ssig in their direction. Unlike some ssigs, it’s totally possible to pass somebody when using the ssig. You can totally miss if you’re close enough to your enemy. As for the dsig, you could use it after a slight or after a dair, as they both put you in the perfect hitbox position. (Additionally, if you don’t want to use a bunch of sigs, try spamming ground pound near the edge. Sometimes, you don’t even have to jump in between. Be careful, though, as the ground pound hits fast and you may end up throwing yourself off the edge.
Sword: I’ve gone over sword’s light attacks in the past, so now let’s go over Asuri’s Signatures. Asuri’s nsig is also a good dunking attack. However, instead of using it over the edge, try using it to keep a recovering enemy at bay. The ssig is quite difficult to land. It’s a hold sig, meaning the longer you hold it the longer you travel. With most hold sigs, the moment you run into an enemy it captures them and unleashes the rest of the signature. However, with Asuri’s ssig, you have to time your release to hit your enemy. Since you can travel quite far with this sig, it’s very effective when used as a sudden charge. The dsig works the absolute best when used after a slight, or a dair.
Asuri is a very fun character to play, mainly because her weapons demand you play her aggressively. Once you start doing that, you can become a lot better at Asuri.

Take my hand.
This is the third instalment to Miss Holly’s Darling, so it goes. Series.
Catch up below:
Darling, so it goes.
Some things are meant to be.
*****
From their first date onwards, Harry was practically kicking himself.
Of course he was no stranger to the process- he’d been on plenty of dates in the past. And while he had to admit that those times were fun, he knew that something had been missing.
Given their history, he had expected their first date to be awkward and strange, but it couldn’t have been further from that.
They seemed to effortlessly fall into a place that was simply a loving extension of their existing relationship. They talked about the same things, maintained their killer banter and friendly teasing- all while exploring the pieces of their hearts that had never met before. And though every nervous voice was telling him to slow down, he only fell deeper and deeper.
They’d talked about everything.
After much discussion, they’d settled on doing things the ‘traditional’ way. Y/N had always known that she wanted to wait, and despite his initially shocking reaction, he’d warmed to the idea rather quickly.
They hadn’t settled on a timeline yet, but they knew that they wanted the whole hog.
White wedding. Meeting all of their career objectives. Building a home. Babies. Grandbabies. Everything.
A part of him knew it before he ever began to acknowledge the butterflies she gave him every time she looked his way. From the moment they met, they were tied together, unbeknownst to either at the tender age of six. And even though he was sure the wait would be anything but easy, he would do it all if it meant he got to feel those butterflies for the rest of his life.
Looking back on his denial, he felt ashamed. Ashamed that he had made her feel the way she did for the latter half of their friendship. Ashamed that he was cowardly with his feelings. And ashamed that he had wasted so much precious time with her.
He knew it would be too soon.
He knew what people would say.
He was nervous.
But he went through with it anyway.
***
She had done it.
Y/N had FINALLY finished university.
She’d slaved away for four years, written essay upon essay, report upon report, and short story upon short story- and finally, it was over.
But as one life chapter closed, she was overwhelmed with happiness at the prospect of the one that was only beginning.
Having Harry as her significant other had surpassed every expectation that she had.
He was sweet, he was charming, and for the first time in her life, she actually felt secure.
Growing up, Harry had been the only constant in her life. Her extended family had walked in and out of it more times than she could count, and not many of her friends had the balls to stick around when her anxiety took over. But even when he was constantly on the road, he always managed to make her feel less alone.
Passing her final portfolio to her professor gave her one of the most strange feelings that she had ever felt.
On one hand it was completely liberating, but on the other hand, she had never been more terrified. She had already passed the degree-that she knew for sure. But closing the chapter of university meant that there would be no more practice, no more training, and no more messing around- it was real now.
It would be up to her now, and Twitter wasn’t helping the matter.
The fans had always been sceptical of her, but after that photo was taken, she felt like a walking target.
She had never felt inferior to Harry in the past, but being barraged with comments about her lack of success and model-like figure really took her for a loop. And even though she knew they only said it all out of jealousy, she couldn’t escape the pressure.
And when her professor asked her to meet him in his office after that final class, it set off the biggest panic attack of her life.
***
To say he was proud of her was a total understatement.
Their families would constantly credit their shared capacity to dream big as the reason they were so close as children.
Harry- ever the performer- would tell anyone and everyone that he was going to be the next Elvis Presley, and aside from his family, Y/N was the only one who truly believed him.
Y/N- ever the academic- would make anyone and everyone read her ‘novels’ (aka, 2 page stories) and constantly express her undying wish to be a ‘Neyoo Yawk Tighems Bessellah’- a dream that Harry supported from the get-go.
He was never one to make demands, but on this day, he specifically requested that Y/N spend the evening at his place as soon as she finished school- a request that she was very happy to fill.
The whole thing was set up- he’d set his dining table using the fine china that his mother urged him to buy (that had never actually seen the light of day before), placed candles all over the room, put on her favourite album, and even cooked her a meal.
He had just placed dessert in the oven as she walked through the door and neatly hung her coat.
He poked his head around the corner with an “Ello love”, and she ran to him with just about the biggest grin he’d ever seen. He caught her in his arms as she kissed him with all the might she had.
As he placed her back on her feet, she couldn’t stop smiling and giggling.
“So what’s new Sugar Plum?”
“Oh nothing major. Just finished university… you know, the usual.” She attempted to say this nonchalantly, but it all came out in one big, giggly mess.
“I’m so proud of you, you know that right?”
“Of course I do. I can tell by the delightful scent of your exquisite mac and cheese which delicately wafted to the entrance of my nasal cavities the very moment I opened the door.”
***
“Now, I know you told me no gifts or grand gestures, but I have a little something for you Y/N.”
“How did I know?” she looked up at him with a giggle.
After filling up on sticky date pudding, they had decided to catch up on a few tv shows to carry out the night.
Harry reached underneath his couch to retrieve a small red box, tied with a white ribbon.
“You really didn’t have to do this you know.”
“And you really shouldn’t have expected me not to.”
She quickly kissed him before slowly opening the box.
“Harry…” she breathed.
“I love you Y/N. I know it’s a little soon but I really can’t see my life without you in it… ever. I wasted so much time avoiding the way I felt about you and I don’t want to do that anymore.
“Before that night, I thought I was happy. I thought everything in my life was so beyond perfect. But it’s only now that I know how much of an idiot I was.
“You are not only everything I have always wanted Y/N- you’re everything I’ve always needed too. You’ve lit up the side of my heart that I had never seen before, and it’s only now that I actually feel like me, and there’s no way I’m letting you go now.”
With that, he climbed off the couch and knelt down on one knee.
“Y/N, what’s say you marry me?”
Her eyes had filled with tears as she listened, but as soon as he spoke those final words, she simply stared at the open box lying in her hands, terrified over what she was about to do. She let out a breath she didn’t realise she was holding and tried to speak, but the words wouldn’t come out.
“Y/N? Please say something.”
“Harry…”
“If it’s too soon I get it. We can wait a little longer if you want. I’m sorry.. I’ll take it back if you don’t feel comfortable.. I j..”
“No no Harry, that’s not it. Of course I want to marry you. It’s just…”
His heart was racing faster than it ever had before. He had no idea what to say or do. He felt the weight of the world pressing him further and further into the floor and squeezing the air from his lungs.
“Something kind of… happened today.”
“What happened? Did someone hurt you?”
“No no, it’s a good thing. Well… good and bad I guess. I mean, I guess it’s significance hadn’t really sunk in until just now but now that I think about it… it could be a bit of a problem.”
He didn’t want to probe her, but if any more time passed without him knowing what was wrong, he would just about burst.
“What is it love? You can tell me.”
She pushed out one last deep breath.
“My professor called me into his office after class today. He told me that he had a friend in publishing that was looking for a fresh new project so he sent her some of my pieces.”
“That’s amazing sweetheart!”
“But then he told me that this friend really enjoyed my work and wants to kind of… give me a book deal and now… I don’t know what to do.”
“I’m not sure I quite understand poppet. Why exactly is this a problem?”
Finally, she looked into his eyes once again. They were wide and laced with confusion, but nowhere near as broken as they were when she spoke the words that he never saw coming.
“I have to move to New York.”

Patching the new Cascadia Code to include Powerline Glyphs and other Nerd Fonts for the Windows Terminal
Microsoft released a nice new ligature-friendly open source font this week called Cascadia Code. It'll eventually be shipped with the open source Windows Terminal (you can get it from the store fee) but for now you can just download and install the TTF.
I've blogged about Fira Code and Monospaced Programming Fonts with Ligatures before. Just like keyboards, mice, monitors, text editors, and all the other things that we as developers put in our toolkits, Fonts are a very personal thing. Lots of folks have tweeted me, "why is this better than <font I use>." I dunno. Try it. Coke vs. Pepsi. If it makes you happy, use it.
I use Cascadia Code for my Terminals and I use Fira Code for my code editor. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
That said, one important thing that you may want to know about is that you have FULL control of your fonts! Lots of folks want certain glyphs, or a fancy bash prompt, or they use posh-git, or PowerLine, or all of the above.
Right now Cascadia Code doesn't include every glyph in the world, but don't let that hold you back. Fix it.
For example, if I go install "Oh my Posh" and spice up my PowerShell Core prompt, it might look like this with Cascadia Code today.
But if I patch Cascadia Code on my own machine to include Nerd Fonts and other glyphs, I'll get this lovely prompt in Windows Terminal:
So you have the power to do a lot of things. Don't be satisfied. Nest, and make your prompt your own! There are lots of Nerd Fonts but I want to patch Cascadia Code today (I'm sure they'll do it themselves one day, but I'm impatient) and make it look the way I want. You can to!
Starting with FontForge in Ubuntu under WSL
Using WSL2 and Ubuntu, I installed the Nerd Fonts Patcher and ran it on my downloaded version of Cascadia code like this:
scott@IRONHEART:/mnt/d/github/nerd-fonts$ fontforge -script font-patcher /mnt/c/Users/scott/Downloads/Cascadia.ttf Copyright (c) 2000-2014 by George Williams. See AUTHORS for Contributors. License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html> with many parts BSD <http://fontforge.org/license.html>. Please read LICENSE. Based on sources from 11:21 UTC 24-Sep-2017-ML-D. Based on source from git with hash: The following table(s) in the font have been ignored by FontForge Ignoring 'DSIG' digital signature table Warning: Mac string is a subset of the Windows string in the 'name' table for the License string in the English (US) language. Adding 53 Glyphs from Seti-UI + Custom Set ╢████████████████████████████████████████╟ 100% Adding 198 Glyphs from Devicons Set ╢████████████████████████████████████████╟ 100% Done with Patch Sets, generating font... Generated: Cascadia Code Nerd Font
Cool! I could even go nuts and add -c and add thousands of glyphs. It just depends on what I need. I could just go --powerline and --fontawesome and call it a day. It's up to you! Salt your Fonts to taste!
Now I can install my local modified TTF like any other, then go into my profile.json in Windows Terminal and set the font face to my new personal custom "CascadiaCode Nerd Font!" Boom. All set.
UPDATE:  Alistair has created a forked version with the added glyphs. You may (or may not) be able to download his forked and renamed version from this Github comment. Slick!
Please also check out my YouTube video on blinging out your PowerShell prompt in the Windows Terminal!
