Struggling with emotional scenes? Here are some tips for writing emotion!
=========
1. While you’re writing, try to build an explanation for their feelings. What triggered their emotion? Is their reaction rational or are they overreacting? Do they fight, flight, fawn or freeze when provoked? Do they feel threatened?
=========
2. Show, don’t tell. Describe what is happening instead of plainly stating the situation. Try not to use words like sad, happy, devastated, in pain, angry, nervous, scared, or worried. They cut back on the emotional integrity of the scene and make it hard for readers to connect with your characters. Here are some different behaviors for different emotions.
-Eager-
Bouncing up and down
Unable to sit still
Breathing deeply
Fidgeting
Pretending to do something
Trying to stay busy
Constantly looking at the clock
-Nervous-
Red and hot face
Sweaty palms
Voice cracks
Shaky hands
Biting nails
Biting lips/inside of cheek
Wide eyes
Shallow breathing
Heart racing
-Excited-
Wide smile
Squeal/scream
Bouncing up and down
Fidgeting
Playing with hands
Tapping foot
Talking fast
Tapping pencil
Pacing back and forth
-Scared-
Curling up/bringing knees to head
Closing eyes
Covering ears
Stop breathing or breathing quickly
Biting nails
Shaking
Gritting teeth
Hugging/squeezing something tight
-Frustrated-
Stomping
Grunting/mumbling/yelling
Deep breaths
Red and hot face
Hitting/kicking something
Pointing
Straining/veins become more visible
-Sobbing-
Eyes filling up with tears
Eyes burn/turn red
Red cheeks
Face becomes puffy
Pursed lips
Holding head down
Hyperventilating
Fast blinking
Trying not to blink/holding back tears
-Happy-
Smiling wide
Laughing loudly
Cheeks hurting
Talking loudly
Higher pitched voice
Animated/expressive
-Upset-
Walking slowly/shuffling feet
Head down/avoiding eye contact
Biting inside of cheek
Dissociation
Keeping quiet
Fidgeting
-Bored-
Pacing back and forth
Sighing loudly
Complaining
Fidgeting
Blank face
Looking for something to do
Making up stories
Talking about random topics
=========
3. Try and bring some trauma into your character’s emotions. For example, something might happen that reminds them of a suppressed/traumatic memory. This is an easy way to hook your reader and have them really feel like your character is a real person with real emotions. They might have some internal conflict they need to work through and a certain situation reminds them of that. They might become irritable at the thought of their traumatic experience and they might snap at whoever is nearby.
=========
4. Most characters won’t dump their entire backstory or feelings in a conversation. Try and reserve your character’s emotions to make more interesting scenes later on. For example, your character may be triggered and someone may ask them what’s wrong. Will they give in, soften up and share? Or will they cut themself off and say they’re fine? Also take into account that your character might not know the other character very well and won’t be comfortable sharing personal information with them, like details regarding their trauma.
=========
5. Last but not least, you don’t need to have a major event happen to connect emotionally with your audience. You don’t have to kill off a character every time you need to spice up your story, even simple interactions can just help your readers understand your character better. Show how they react to certain topics or situations. Describe their feelings, their surroundings, their body language. Their defense mechanisms will help the audience to better understand what kind of person they are.

How to learn a new language on your own
Learning a new language is a valuable skill that can enhance your personal and professional life. While taking classes or working with a tutor can be beneficial, it's also possible to learn a new language on your own. Here are some tips for learning a new language on your own:
Set realistic goals
Learning a new language is a long-term process, so it's important to set realistic goals for yourself. Decide what you want to achieve and break it down into smaller, more manageable goals. This will help you stay motivated and track your progress.
Choose a learning method
There are many different ways to learn a new language, so it's important to choose a method that works for you. Some popular options include textbooks, online courses, language learning apps, and language exchange programs.
Immerse yourself in the language
One of the most effective ways to learn a new language is to immerse yourself in it. This can involve listening to music or podcasts in the target language, watching TV shows or movies with subtitles, or reading books or articles in the target language.
Practice regularly
Consistency is key when it comes to learning a new language. Try to practice for at least 30 minutes each day, even if it's just reviewing vocabulary or listening to a podcast.
Use resources available online
There are a wealth of resources available online to help you learn a new language. This includes language learning apps, YouTube channels, online courses, and language learning forums.
Find a language exchange partner
A language exchange partner can be a valuable resource for practicing your language skills. This involves finding a native speaker of the language you are learning and practicing with them in a conversational setting. This can help you improve your speaking and listening skills.
Build your vocabulary
Building your vocabulary is an essential part of learning a new language. Start with the most common words and phrases, and gradually build up to more complex vocabulary.
Focus on pronunciation
Pronunciation is an important aspect of language learning. Work on perfecting your pronunciation early on, as this will help you communicate more effectively in the long run.
Stay motivated
Learning a new language can be a challenging process, so it's important to stay motivated. Find ways to make the process fun and enjoyable, such as watching movies in the target language or listening to music.
Join a community
Joining a language learning community can be a great way to stay motivated and connect with other language learners. This can involve joining online forums, attending language learning events, or participating in language exchange programs.
Learning a new language on your own is a challenging but rewarding experience. By using a combination of methods and resources, staying motivated and consistent, and embracing the learning process, you can achieve your language learning goals and open up new opportunities in your personal and professional life.

On the first snowfall
Fairytale AU
Prince! Zayne x princess! Reader
Contents: depictions of violence (not hardcore because I am soft) , mentions of injuries and blood , slightly suggestive at the end , childhood friends to lovers. Angst but happy ending (yippie)
Synopsis: After merely dodging an assignation attempt from his own stepbrother , Prince Zayne fell in a deep slumber ter getting tricked by the evil Queen and only a true love kiss can bring him back . will his dear pain in the ass of a childhood friend save him ? There's only one way to find out .(based off Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs )
Word count : 8.9k
A/N: this took me forever to finish (4 days to be exact). It's my first long fic and English is not my first language so please be kind. Reblogs and like are appreciated. Happy reading !!
"Please Daddy" the toddler tugged at Zayne's sleeve lips jutting out in a small pout that made her resemble so much to her mother
"Ok but you promise you'll go back to bed after" Zayne sighed in defeat it was past curfew and his little angel seemed intent to give him an hard time.
The little girl nodded, hazel eyes lighting up at the prospect of getting a bedtime story.
Zayne picked her up effortlessly making his way towards the bed to lay down on her bed full of plushies
With his daughter tucked comfortably against his side on the small bed he spoke in a rather monotone voice.
"Once upon a time , in a kingdom far far away lived a prince"
"Was he pretty ?" She interrupted him , voice filled with childlike excitement and wonder.
"According to some yes" he replied making small projections with his evol.
"This prince lived with His dad and never knew his mother"
"What happened to her?" She asked tilting her head like a sad puppy .
Not wanting to crush the 5 years old little girl's spirit Zayne choose his next words carefully.
"She joined the Angels up in the skies where she now look after him" he replied
"Oohh" her lips was forming a small Oh, surprise painting her soft features.
Zayne felt his heart melt at the sight , the love he felt for this literally bundle of joy too overwhelming.
"One day the prince's father the king got married to another woman , who had a son" Zayne continued the story while she listened intently, eyes flickering over the snow figures he created with his evol to animate the story.
"The Queen didn't like our prince none bit"
"Why?" She asked pouting.
"Well because, my snowflake, the Queen wanted her son to become the next king" he retorted flicking her nose which make her pout deepens
"But our prince was there first" she huffed crossing her small arms over her chest.
Zayne just smiled patting her hair that was already ruffled from turning in her bed before picking the story where he left it.
"One day there was a big event taking place in the Palace. An hunt where the Winner will have to go in a forest and catch the biggest and fastest animal and bring it back to the Princess to earn a kiss from her"
"You're not considering participating right Zayne?"
Her voice made the young man jolt almost dropping his book.
"You" he looked at her who was standing on her tip toe to peek over his shoulder.
Adjusting his glasses he replied
"I am the Prince of Eladia , it is my duty to attend"
"You know there's no need" she waved him off "I am willing to give you a kiss whenever you-" her words got cut off by Zayne's hand who dragged her in a secluded corner , the tip of his ear flushed red , eyes darting around awkwardly to make sure nobody heard them.
"So you want it now?" She smirked deviously at him , her words slightly muffled by his hand he hastily removed.
What is wrong with her?
"This is not-" a sigh "this is not what you think" he pinched the bridge of his nose but her smirk just got wider
"Sure your majesty" she nudged his elbow playfully before speaking in a more serious tone "but Seriously Zayne you really shouldn't participate to this hunt"
"And may I know why ?" He shook his head
Not even letting her answer he strutted his way ahead leaving her rotted to her spot.
"Why is he so rude?" The little girl exclaimed making Zayne stammer in his tale , the tip of his ear flushing bright pink.
"He might be a bit stubborn" he replied before continuing
"I've heard the forest is dangerous with weird creatures roaming in it" she jogged after him but he was quicker , his legs way longer .
"You've heard, not seen" he retorted pace not faltering.
What a jerk I am looking out for him and this is how he Thanks me ? She thought to herself.
"But isn't it better to be prepared?" She retorted holding the pans of her dress while literally chasing after him , not even a care for the weird glances the servants and the Guards were casting toward them.
Everyone in this palace knew the Prince of Eladia and the princess of Eralyon were close.
"I will be" Zayne reassured her finally stopping in his track.
"Fine" she sighed raising her hands in surrender "go ahead and participate but you better win because ain't no way I am kissing that pearlescent frog" she jabbed a finger in his chest earning a small smile from him.
He caught her wrist gently before bringing it to his lips and leave a delicate kiss on her skin.
"Anything for you your highness" he murmured against her skin , hazel eyes looking up at her.
She quickly withdrew her hand from his grasp , feeling her cheeks flush and her heart thump
"Hmm w-well" she stammered , words failling her . Cheeks blushing the prettiest shade of pink he has ever seen.
"All I can say is good luck and make sure to come back in one piece." She uttered after finally regaining her bearings
"I sure will" he nodded but she was already making her way toward God knows where leaving him dumbfounded in the alley.
What's wrong ? Was kissing her wrist inappropriate?
Zayne's eyes followed her form until she turned into a corner. Mind still mulling over her reaction as he made his way to the Royal library to return the book he was reading.
"How I hate this" she muttered herself, moving her fan like she was wrestling with it , this dress felt too tight , the heat unbearable even if they were outdoor .
The Queen was sitting on a small platform while the princess was sitting alone on another. The King well wasn't present because he was ill its been 3 months since he doesn't step out of his room. Only the Queen knows about his whereabouts.
The princess's eyes were roaving around the crowd below searching for Zayne When her eyes fell on him she quickly excused herself to go wish him Good luck.
"Zayne" she sauntered over him., eyes filled with a mixture of excitement and worry.
A small smile crept up Zayne's lips when his eyes fell on her.
"I cant believe you didn't listen to me" she crossed her arms over her chest, a small pout tugging at her lips .
She looked so adorable he caught himself of thinking about leaning down and kissing that pout of her lips.
"I thought you gave me your blessing" he said tucking a stray strand of hair behind her ear making a small shiver ran down her spine.
"You were gonna take part with my blessing or not" she retorted batting his hand away. "Just come back safely" she murmured in a small voice hands grasping his
He looked down at their hands before looking back at her face
"Why do you worry so much about me?"
His question seemed to catch her off of guard making her sputter out
"Because you're my friend of course" yet she didn't seem herself convinced by her words "and you have to win because I am not kissing that pearlescent frog you have for a brother" she let go of his hand to cross her arms over her chest .
Zayne was tempted to prob further but the sound of clarion interrupted them.
Before he could hop on his horse she took his hand and left a kiss on the top of his palm.
"Good luck kiss" she winked at him before making her way to her seat leaving him a fluttery mess of heartbeat and flushed cheeks.
The princess made her way toward her seat, eyes heavy with a mixture of sorrow and sadness she couldn't quite pinpoint.
Zayne rode through the forest mind still reeling from the unexpected kiss she gave him , he could still feel the skin where her lips touched him tingling.
Get a grip Zayne he scolded himself. You're here for a purpose not to daydream like lovesick fool.
The sound of scrunching leaves made his ear perk up , his horse coming to a stop when he felt a shadowy presence around him.
The forest was eerily quiet, not even a bird singing only the rustle of leaves could be heard . Drawing his bow , his senses were on high alert ready to eliminate Whatever threat was lurking in this dense forest
"Well well look like his majesty can't even catch a simple prey" his stepbrother's voice Christian echoed , grating his ear as always.
"Christian" he lowered his bow , eyeing him suspiciously. "I dont recall inviting you"
Christian let out a small laugh stepping out the shadow, brown locks neatly styled , gray eyes filled with mischief. Hands raised in mock surrender
"Relax brother we're on the same boat aren't we ?" He grinned pearly white teeth gleaming like fang "both fighting for the princess's Attention and maybe more"
Zayne ignored him getting off of his horse to lead it through the dense foliage.
Christian was never up to no good and he wouldn't let him ruin his day , nope not today not when he has a beautiful princess waiting for him with a kiss.
"Do what you want" Zayne spoke not sparing him a glance. "Just stay out of my way"
Christian just trailed behind him, unnervingly silent
"The princess seems quite fond of you" he observed trying hard to sound disinterested "Its a shame you didn't listen to her" he shrugged nonchalantly
"What the-" before Zayne could process anything he found himself pined against a tree a dagger pressing against his stomach
"Such a shame we could have been best buddies" he let out a dramatic sigh , eyes gleaming with a feral hunger "all because you had to be a legitimate son" he tsked dagger piercing through Zayne's stomach making hot white splashes of pain wash over him , the metallic tang of blood filling his mouth.
He withdrew his dagger , letting Zayne slump against the ground
"Its nothing personal you know" Christian reassured him cleaning his dagger in Zayne's overpriced coat "just politics and dont worry" he pressed his feet down Zayne's wound making him choke on his own blood . "I'll make sure to take care of your princess , I bet her lips taste sweeter than those desserts you love to indulge yourself in Huh?" he smirked feet pressing harder against Zayne's stomach.
"Rest in peace , your highness, the kingdom will hardly misses you" he bowed dramatically before turning his heels leaving Zayne for dead in the deep forest
The young man couldn't do nothing but lay there in his own blood as his murderer walked away leaving him hopeless mind swirling with thoughts of her , his mom, his father , her bright smile when she found him crying in the palace gardens after his mom death , how she offered him sweet to brighten his day , how he likes them since that day.
What a shame she will never know how her smile brighten up his day , how he loves seeing her scrunch up her nose in annoyance when he tease her too much or how he likes it when she openly flirt with him even if he pretend he's annoyed by it . She will never know how much he loves her, never know how much he wanted to win so she won't have to kiss his brother but it was too late now laying in the blood soaked ground , only his dead body and regrets remain.
"Is he dead ?" The little girl tugged at Zayne's wrist making his heart clench in his chest.
"No my little snowflake" he reassured her stroking her cheeks gently.
She nudged closer to him , her head resting against his shoulder waiting for him to continue.
The princess was pacing back and forth in her room , heart twisting with worry . It was already late in the evening and Zayne haven't returned.
"Be safe , be safe" she continued to murmur , clutching the jade necklace he offered her for her 18th birthday 3 years ago.
"Your highness" the sound of 2 guards standing at her doorstep pulled her out of her trance and before she knew it she was standing in front of them.
"What happened? Has his majesty returned?" She fired question after question, her anxiety coming off in a wave.
The guard looked oddly uncomfortable, eyes darting away from her.
"What's wrong? Where's Zayne?" She pressed on
"His majesty hasn't came back" one guard spoke up eyes looking anywhere but her
"According to Sir Christian" the other continued "he got attacked by a beast and didn't make it"
"Bullshit"
The guard's eyes widened. It was the first time they heard the princess Swear .
"Zayne is the best archer in the kingdom unless that beast was a certain pearlescent frog , I don't believe your charades" she waved them off strutting her way out of the room
"Your highness where are you going ?" The guards called out after her
"Going to do your job since you are so incompetent at it" she shouted adjusting her cloak.
"The princess did what?"
"S-she left" a small gasp left the messenger's lips when the butter knife that was in the Queen's hand flew pass his head.
"This little Eralyon brat" she stifled through her teeth before excusing the trembly messenger
"No need to get so worked up Mother" Christian who just arrived in the dining room patted her shoulder.
"She's just a little girl with no defense ,a damsel in distress and who will be the prince that will save her?" He offered his mother that same mischievous smile.
"You" she scoffed "but that still doesn't solve our issue"
"What issue ?" Christian plopped himself on a chair across the dining table
"You haven't done your job properly Christian, he's still alive" she retorted
The man drew a long breath , the gears already turning in his mind .
"How could you be sure ? The dagger was poisoned and the wound was fatal"
"Those nuisances of creatures saved him , the mirror told me so"
Ah this infamous magical mirror, such a pain in the ass Christian thought.
"So now what do you suggest?" He asked caressing his stubble.
"We finish the job obviously" she rolled her eyes as if the answer wasnt obvious.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~◇~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Is he alive ?" A fluttery voice asked
"Obviously- what the fuck!!! Why are you naked? we have guest over"
"Narilyn stole my clothes- ouch! That hurts"
Zayne's head was throbbing , the pain in his stomach almost unbearable and now he was hearing voice ?? Was he in hell?
"Stop fighting you 2" another voice more mature, more firm "you're disturbing his sleep"
Zayne's eyes fluttered open only to see 3 colored heads snapping back toward him
"He's awake" the same fluttery voice exclaimed making the blue haired being smack a book on her head.
"PUT SOME FUCKING CLOTHES ON" she continued to smack her making her fly away.
Wait fly . Zayne eyes widened further . Aren't those early signs of schizophrenia ?
"No you arent dreaming" the white haired one who seemed the oldest spoke up.
Zayne had so much question . How did he get here ? Wasnt he supposed to be dead ? What were those winged being ?
As if reading his mind the white haired fairy provided him with answers
"We found you for dead in the forest and brought you here and as for what we are-"
"We are the 7 guardians of the forest" Zayne was startled by the presence of another fairy , this one had green hair and eyes , long wings shining with bright glitter that looked like stardust.
"Narylin" she offered him her hand with a bright smile. Zayne hesitated to grasp it still confused by this situation but she didn't seem to mind .
"Narylin you pest give me back my clothes" the fairy who was still apparently naked exclaimed, blonde hair sticking to her skin as she tried her best to avoid her sister's book attack.
"I didn't take it" Narylin shrugged while the white haired fairy let out an heavy sigh.
"I am here" another presence stepped inside the small house only to quickly bend down to avoid a lamp thrown after the blonde fairy.
"They are fighting again" the red haired fairy who just arrived shook her head.
Feeling her patience wearing thin the white haired fairy flicked her fingers making them stop their useless bickering.
The fairies all gathered around her after the blonde one successfully found her clothes.
"State your name stranger" the purple haired one pointed a lance at him making the blonde one giggle and the blue haired facepalm herself
"Melida this is not how we greet a guest" the oldest scolded her gently.
Zayne just watched them dumbfounded, the fairies were no bigger than a water bottle , there were 7 of them all with different hair colors and translucent wings that shone brightly.
"Its an honor to meet you, your majesty" the withe haired one bowed at him making the other follow suit.
They knew he was the prince ? How ?
"I-" Zayne's words failed him , this was too outlandish to be true , he never believed in fairytales or the existence of strange creatures not even when the princess would tell him tales about them.
"The pleasure is mine?" He found himself replying , the words more like a question than a statement but that seemed to satisfy them.
"I am Sonia" the blonde haired one exclaimed flying land on his shoulder.
"And this is Melida." She pointed at the purple haired one , "Hydrangea" blue haired one that chased after her for dear life "Lily" red haired one , "Narilyn" green haired one "Rose" pink haired one "and our older sister "Sapphire" she pointed at the white haired one. She was the only fairy whose eyes were a different color than her hair , they were blue not white.
"What about you ? What's your name ?" Sonia inquired head tilted to the side to look at him.
"Zayne" he murmured eyes snapping from Sapphire
"Zayne it's pretty like you" she giggled
"Its pretty like you" she smiled brightly.
Zayne felt his head throb at the memory eyes screwing shut as the pain washed over him.
"We should let him rest he still hasn't healed properly" Sapphire said making everyone hang their head low in shame.
Sonia who was perched on his shoulder flew towards the rest of her sisters leaving him alone.
"Rest well your majesty" she waved at him.
Zayne waved back at her mind swirling with unanswered questions.
He plopped himself down on the small bed he was resting on thinking.
He's alive . Well that's a good sign . But how many times has passed since he's here? Does everyone think he's dead ? Does she think he's dead ? Is she alright ? Knowing how stubborn she could be , she's probably searching for him everywhere but even him didn't know where the hell he was Exactly.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~♡~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What made her think hopping on an horse and rode through this forest a good idea?
The thing you'd do for love. Wait love no she's not in love with him, she's just doing her duty as a future Queen and his bestfriend. That's it.
"Yeah that's it- AHH" the footsteps of nearby horse made her own drop her
"Fuck" she massaged her head taking of dead leaves stuck on the strands
"Princess, princess" Christian tsked kneeling to be at her eyes level "don't you know this forest is dangerous for such a precious thing like you"
"You tell me it seems the perfect a habitat for a pearlescent frog like you" she shrugged leaning against her palms.
Christian chuckled trying his best to mask his irritation
"Such a sharp tongue" he cupped her chin , thumb caressing her bottom lip "makes me wonder if it can only give witty remarks"
she felt a wave disgust washes over her . Bile rising up her throat
Who the hell does he think he is ?
"It can also bite" she retorted making his eyebrows furrow before he could process her words she bit him hard enough to draw blood before starting to run away in the dense forest
"This little bitch" he hissed "get her" he ordered the Guards "seems like I'll have to teach this Eralyon brat a lesson"
She ran as fast as possible, her heart pounding in her chest, breath erratic. She didn't have a destination in mind, engulfing herself deeper in the dark forest without a care for her safety. She needed to get away from this mad bastard and find Zayne.
But alas, fate had other things in store for her since she tripped on a dead branch and fell flat on her face, the impact causing the breath to get knocked out of her lungs.
No, you can't stop now. She was about to stand up and keep running, but Christian's booted foot pressed against her shoulder blade, pushing her against the ground.
"Such a shame, Princess. If only you didn't have to be so difficult," he yanked her by her hair while she tried to fight off his grip.
"So feisty. I'm going to have so much fun with you, Princess of Eralyon," he grinned ,nosing her pulse while she felt like throwing up. "I'll tame you," he murmured against her neck, inhaling her scent, "make you my little puppet."
"In your dreams, Christian," she spat, eyes blazing with fury.
"A dream that's about to become true," he chuckled darkly before injecting a potion into her side, making her body fall limp in his arms.
He carried her back to his horse after instructing the guards to get back to the palace.
Zayne was getting better with the fairies tending to his wounds when they weren't busy fighting that is
"It's mine" Hydrangea shouted hugging the small snowman Zayne made for them with his evol.
"Nope" Sonia countered pushing Hydrangea off the snowman with a jet of gold glitters "my friend's confection, mine" she retorted standing on top of the snowman, wings fluttering.
"And stop fighting over this human ?" Melida who was sharpening her weapon added
"Will you 2 stop shouting for 2 minutes? There's people trying to read in peace" Lily who was reading a book interrupted them
"Its her fault" the blue haired fairy pointed at Sonia who stuck her tongue out mockingly.
Zayne just observed their interaction with a small smile while chopping the vegetables for dinner.
The oldest fairy suggested that he stayed here until he completely heal . The others were eager for hjm to stay (Sonia and Narilyn in particular) while Melida was still wary of him.
"Your majesty are you single?" Sonia asked flying to rest on his shoulder which seemed to be her favorite spot.
The question caught Zayne off of guard making his cheeks flush
"Mmh I guess" he replied focusing on the dinner he was making.
"You guess ?" Hydrangea tilted his head at him , eyeing him suspiciously.
"I mean I am not engaged or married" he shrugged, stirring the pot on the stove.
"Strange your heart says otherwise" Rose the pink haired fairy spoke up , she has the softest voice out of them all.
"Haha told you he was taken" Hydrangea exclaimed before dodging the pea thrown by Sonia who was pouting arms crossed over her chest.
"How would you know?" Zayne asked in disbelief.
"Rose is a fairy of love of course she knows when someone's heart is taken" Lily who was still absorbed in her book replied.
"And your dear crush is" Hydrangea taunted Sonia who was now on top of her fighting again.
"Why would you have a crush on a human?" Melida who finally put her weapon down scoffed.
"Yeah he's so big it's not like it's gonna fit" Narilyn who appeared out of nowhere shrugged making Zayne's eyebrows furrow
"What is not gonna fit?" Zayne asked curiously making Sonia's cheeks flush red and Hydrangea giggle.
"How is he so innocent?" Lily whispered under her breath.
Some days when They weren't bickering they all gathered around Zayne to hear him talk about his life back at the palace or the princess who've taken his heart (not that he'll ever admit it )
Days turned into weeks and even if Zayne appreciated the fairies and their care one part of him longed to return to his home , to see his people, to see her , hold her, kiss h- no Zayne get ahold of yourself
They were in the forest, picking up branches and berries for dinner when the pink haired fairy came up to him with a flower crown in her hands
"And a flower crown for the prettiest prince of the kingdom" Rose put the flowery crown on his head making his heart melt and his mind jog back to vivid memories
"I am the only prince of the kingdom and what's that for ?" The 14 years old boy asked , his eyebrows furrowing in confusion
"Consider this as a pre wedding gift until you actually accept to marry me" she replied resting her hands on her hips
"aren't we a little bit too young for that?" He asked adjusting the crown on his head
"Why ?" She muttered creeping behind him to steal a glance at his book "we are both from Royal family arent we ?" She smiled looking up at him and she was so close , her perfume enveloping him in a soft cloud.
"you cant even tie your own shoelaces properly and you're already thinking about wedding" he flicked her forehead playfully causing her to let out a small oof nose scrunching up in annoyance
"I'll have you know I can perfectly tie my shoelaces" (lie she couldn't) she retorted rubbing the sore spot on her forehead "and beside I don't need that to get married"
"To get married to me you do" he countered already making his way ahead while she trailed behind him. "And beside as I said you're too young" he added making her huff
"I am 12 years old already" she retorted clutching the hem of her dress while she tried to keep up with his pace.
"Exactly too young" he deadpanned still walking ahead , flower crown sitting perfectly on his head.
He really hoped his words would dissuade her but it seemed doing quite the opposite
"Does that mean you'll marry me when I get older?" She asked , eyes gleaming with excitement
Please no.
Zayne let out an heavy sigh finally turnin back to face her.
"If you can tie your shoelaces by this time, then yes" he nodded , the tip of his ear turning red while his eyes darted away awkwardly
"But I can tie my shoelac-"
"We both know that's not true" Zayne retorted pointing at her shoelaces that were undone
Before she could say anything he bent down on one knee to tie her shoelaces leaving her dumbfounded and blushing like a tomato
"Here future wife" he winked at her.
"Future wife" Zayne smiled to himself caressing the Jasmine petals of the flowers crown sitting on his head
"You really do love her, dont you?" Rose sat down on his shoulder pink eyes looking up at him
"Who ?" Zayne asked in disbelief
"Your princess" Rose offered him a soft smile
"You're mistaken" Zayne shrugged making her fly off his shoulder. "She's my friend"
"It doesn't change the fact that your heart belongs to her" she retorted shrugging her shoulders playfully while Zayne bent down to pick up a stray branch.
"Aren't you planning to tell her ?" She asked wings fluttering as she flew around him
"There's nothing to tell" he replied making his way deeper through the woods
"Are humans always this stubborn or is it just you?" She asked her voice soft and genuine.
"Its not called being stubborn, it's the truth" he mused aloud adjusting the strap of the bag that was carrying the wood for the fire.
"It doesn't sound like it" she retorted
Now she was the one being stubborn. He thought
They continued to bicker (more like Rose trying to open his eyes and make him realize he's hopelessly in love. ) unaware of the fact the Queen was observing them through her enchanted mirror.
"Stupid creatures" she spat under her breath nails digging in her palms
"Why cant he just die?" She muttered to herself voice dripping with venom before turning her head to the princess who was trapped in a deep slumber
"Hopefully we got the perfect bait" she smiled , creeping closer to the girl peacefully asleep .
Once she was at her level , she cut a strand of her hair to carry on her schemes.
"Dont worry dear" she caressed her face "your beloved will join you soon" her devilish laugh rang across the room bouncing off against the walls
"The wound is healing nicely, you'll be able to go back home in a few days" Sapphire who was checking his almost non existent wound spoke up.
"What do you mean 'go back'?" Sonia who was playing card with Hydrangea and Narilyn exclaimed making her way to where Zayne was sitting on the bed
"You didn't seriously expect he'd stay here?" Melida scowled but Sonia's eyes were already gleaming with tears making Zayne's heart clench.
Even if it was hard to believe during this short time Zayne spent here , he's grown quite fond of the fairies , even if they fought (over him) a lot , he found their relationship endearing .
"I mean" he rubbed the back of his neck nervously "I have to go back to my duties"
"And his lover" Hydrangea added earning a glare from Sonia
"But you won't forget about us right ?" Rose who also flew towards where he was sitting asked in a gentle voice pink eyes shining with a mixture of sadness and hope.
"Of course no" Zayne reassured them and before he knew it they were all tackling him on the bed in a group hug even Melida who seemed hostile towards him at first (and still now)
Zayne hugged them back carefully to not crush them with his arms when a shout of his name echoed outside.
This voice.
"ZAYNE" another shout.
"Who dare interrupting us ?" Melida grumbled under breath before they all carefully untangled from Zayne.
"Zayne" the girl shouted again voice bordering on desperation.
Zayne stepped out the small house only to fall face to face with her , his princess, his love , the one he spent all those days longing for , all those nights dreaming of .
"You're here" he whispered, he couldn't believe it , she was there standing in all of her glory. Face lighting up when her eyes fell on him.
"Zayne" she ran towards him arms wrapping around his neck to squeeze him tightly "you're alive, I was so worried" she cupped her cheeks to look closely at his face "I thought you were dead" her thumbs stroked his cheeks softly.
Zayne's head was swimming in an ocean of relief and joy , his love was there , she was there with him looking way to lively , clean and polished for someone who just rode all the way through those woods
The fairies who followed closely behind Zayne observed the scene with wary gazes.
"Something is off" Lily muttered making Rose nod
"She doesn't seem to be the one his heart call for" she murmured in that soft voice of hers
"How did you find me?" Zayne asked cradling her head gently
There was not a single leaf in her hair as if she appeared out of nowhere but Zayne was too happy to notice
"I went through the hell that are those woods , even when I felt like giving up I didnt because I knew I'd have to find you" she stood up on her tiptoe , hands caressing his chest in a way that felt way too wrong way too out of character.
She's there with you no need to get lost in semantics
"I don't know what I would have done if I didn't find you" she murmured eyes dropping to his lips in a way that made Zayne shudder.
"Shouldn't we intervene?" Sonia asked voice bubbling with a mixture of jealousy and concer.
The energy coming off of this girl screamed to run away but they didn't want to come off as rude and possessive so they watched from the sidelines.
"So worried" she murmured tugging Zayne closer by his collar and he didn't fight her off because why would he ?
After all this time , he finally get to see her ,to touch her , as if hypnotized he let her pull him in her grasp lips hovering above his.
"We need to do something" Sonia exclaimed shaking Narilyn by her shoulders.
But alas it was too late because as soon Zayne's lips collided with hers he sank to his knees, a wave of fatigue washing over him.
"So pathetic" she scoffed pushing him with her foot "it was almost too easy" she knelt beside him while Zayne was fighting to keep his eyes open.
"I knew taking this little bitch's appearance would do the trick but I didn't think you'd fall for it so easily" her tone was cruel, dripping with venom so different from the Princess he knew.
"Who are you?" Zayne mumbled eyes drooping.
"I am the last face you'll see before leaving this world." she bent down to whisper in his ear before Zayne's body fell limply on the cold ground.
"Me?" Her eyes gleamed with a mixture of madness and feral hunger that reminded him so much of Christian.
The fairies all bolted towards him , Sonia furious threw a bolt of lightning toward the impostor princess who dodged it easily.
"Its too late" she laughed out features twisting into such a feral grin "it's just a matter of time before he die"
"You scum" Melida surged forward planting her lance above the corner of the impostor's eyes who let out a shriek of pain.
The soft features that was once the the face of the one who stole Zayne's heart morphed into the sharp features of his stepmother.
"You have no right to be there Onyx" Sapphire who just arrived spoke up.
The Queen stopped dead in her track eyes narrowing at the fairies.
"You won't be able to save her this time sister" she spat before turning her heels , leaving Zayne cold and unconscious on the ground.
Will he make it out ?
Her eyes fluttered open , her head throbbing ,her mouth and throat dry.
"Where am I?" She sat up only to realize she was bound to the bed she was laying on by chains.
"What the-"
"Your majesty , you're awake" she heard a small voice says .
She turned her head toward the sound only to see a white owl talking.
Wait a white owl talking???
"What the fuck??" She almost shouted but the owl quickly shushed her
"You're gonna wake him up" he hushed out.
Pressing her lips shut , she observed the owl curiously, after days being unconscious the first thing she sees when she wakes up is this!!.
"We need to find a way to get you out of here" the owl exclaimed landing on her arm with the key in his mouth.
Since only one of the Princess's hand was bound she took the key from him to unlock the locket that bounded her chains together.
When she was finally free she got off the bed not without caressing the owl's head.
"Thank you for your help"
The owl nuzzled against her hand before replying
"You're welcome, your majesty, please find my son and save him I've been too blind by love to see she was a degenerate, only you now can save us all"
His son wait was that owl the king who apparently got sick 3 months ago ?
She had so much question but she knew now wasn't the time to ask them she needed to get away from here and fast.
The room she was staying in obviously wasn't hers , there was a large mirror clad in the walls and a table full of weird potions and instrument.
This has to be the Queen Room.
"Hurry, your highness" the owl croaked out.
The princess quickly grabbed a dagger that was resting on the table with a bottle that had "Don't touch , for emergency only" written on it . Shoving them on her nightgown's pocket , she stole one of the Queen's overpriced coat and stormed off the room with the owl following closely behind her.
The palace seemed to be in a whirlwind, servants walking back and forth preparing what looked like a grandiose banquet.
Not wanting to dwell on this she clutched the cloak tightly around her making her way toward the palace horse boxes to steal an horse.
Her plan went smoothly, way too smoothly for her taste as if someone laid out the path for her to take.
Focus , we need to find Zayne and fast. She shook her head, pulling on the reins of her horse.
The owl continued to follow her , leading her way through the forest to find Zayne.
"How did the Queen managed to trap you in this form?" She questioned him curiously
"She poisoned me" he replied , still flying
"Poisoning you?" She tilted her head curiously.
"With a kiss" he responded before landing on a stray branch.
"How outlandish" she whispered under her breath.
She hasn't spent a lot of time with the Queen but she always found her shady , especially since her son Christian couldn't stop trying to win her over even when she make it clear she wasnt interested.
They continued their journey through the forest only stopping to feed her horse , she was too anxious to eat anything. The knot in her stomach not easing until she found him.
It was past 3 weeks since he disappeared the day of the Hunt. She didn't know what could have happened to him during this time . Was he safe ? Was he alright? Oh Christ she was going die of worries at this rate.
"Do not worry" your majesty the owl reassured her, resting against her shoulder.
"My son is a tough one , he'll be alright"
"I hope" she let out a small sigh.
"Will he make it out ?" Sonia asked caressing Zayne's pale skin.
He was laying in a sanctuary of Jasmine's flowers , eyes closed shut , his beautiful features relaxed in a peaceful slumber.
"The incantation is strong" Sapphire mused blue gaze dropping to the ground "I fear only a true love kiss can bring him back"
The silence that fell upon them was deafening.
"A true love kiss" Rose repeated voice distant as her eyes roamed over Zayne's face.
"Snow" she looked up at the sky feeling a small snowflake landing on her nose.
"Its snowing" she murmured to herself.
"Its snowing Zayne , come and play with me" the little girl exclaimed tugging at his arm.
"No you'll probably catch a cold" the little boy shook his head not budging an inch from where he was sitting on the couch.
"B-but" her lips wobbled "it's the first snowfall of the season and you know what the legend said"
"I don't" he retorted, hazel eyes boring into hers "please enlighten me"
"Don't you know" she sat down legs crossed in front of him , eyes gleaming with that same spark of excitement they had everytime she talked about something she was passionate about.
"If 2 people share a kiss under the first snowfall, they wil last forever" she smiled widely , eyes knowingly gazing at him.
"And what does this have to do with us?" He asked still skeptical
"Let's go outside and kiss so we will last forever" she exclaimed making him choke on thin air.
What is wrong with her ?
Zayne erupted in a fit of coughs , face red from embarrassment .
she's only 11 for God's sake . Why does she keep catching him off of guard like this?
"Are you ok?" She quickly stood up massaging his back as he slowly regained his composure
"I am fine I am fine" he uttered , his embarrassment finally subsiding.
She nodded seemingly reassured even if her eyes still held a trace ofconcern.
"Then let's go play , your majesty" she took her hand already dragging him outside to play.
"The first snowfall" she murmured letting the snowflake melt on her palm.
"2 people who kiss under the first snowfall will last forever. Sounds straight out of a fairytale, don't you agree princess ?" Christian's sly voice made her ears perk up. Her senses on high alert.
"Here are we meeting in this forest again" he creeped closer towards her , boots scrunching the dead leaves , the same feral look in his gray eyes that haunted her nights . "I am starting to think this is becoming our little secret place" he smirked still wincing closer towards her while she took step back after step back putting as much distance between them as she can , mind running a mile per minute to find an escape
As if reading her mind he spoke again
"Don't be scared I won't hurt you as long you collaborate"
As if to prove his point he opened his arm widely.
"You are right" she sighed in defeat finally stopping backing down.
A flash of surprise passed over Christian's face.
Why the sudden switch up?
"Chasing after Eladia's little brat can be so exhausting, I tought if I tried hard enough and found him I'd finally seal an alliance between Eralyon and Eladia but now" she looked up at hom shoulder slumping in defeat.
"All hope seems to be dead just like him" she sighed before a slow smirk pulled at the corner of her mouth.
"You really think I am going to believe you did all of this for an alliance" he chuckled shaking his head "princess princess" he tsked crossing the distance between them in two effortless strides.
"You are so naive" he whispered hands hovering above her face and to his surprise she leaned into his touch
"Not naive" she left a kiss on his palm "just as power hungry as you are"
Oh now she was talking his language.
"And you haven't seen nothing, your majesty" she leaned in to whisper in his ear the sound sending shiver down his spine. Coating his mind with the sweetest intoxication.
"And here I thought you were just a lovesick brat" he cuppoed her cheek caressing the soft skin with his thumb "you're full of surprises, princess"
"Princess" he leaned in to nose her pulse , inhaling her scent.
"Yes my king" she caressed his shoulder blade , palm gliding down until it reached his side.
Lost in the sensation of finally having the princess at his mercy. After years dreaming of this moment, finally, finally he had her Exactly where he wanted but not for long because a sharp pain on his side brought him back to reality, paralyzed he sank to his knees, eyes wide open looking up at her while the syringe stayed planted on his side
"You" he croaked out , the taste of blood filling his mouth.
She planted a foot on his shoulder pushing him down.
"Stay down Christian, the only thing you'll rule is the dirt beneath my feet" she said voice dangerously calm and serene , eyes devoid of any emotions.
He convulsed on the ground , coughing blood while his skin started to darken eyes rolling to the back of his head.
"Do not worry, the kingdom will hardly misses you, I just hope you have the most peaceful descend on hell" She turned her heels , leaving him laying on the ground writhing in pain with his unfulfilled dreams and wishes , like an unfinished canvas.
After leaving Christian for dead in the forest she hopped on her horse following the white owl who guided her toward Zayne.
She looked serene on the outside, eyes fixed on the path in front of her but deep down she was shaking, mind reeling as the impact of her actions finally sank in . She took a life , no matter how evil Christian was he was an human , a living being and she took his life she was a murderer , a murderer.
"We almost there Princess" the owl's voice snapped her out of her morbid thoughts, horse coming to a stop before she hopped off it , trembly legs running on the Snowy ground.
She was exhausted both physically and mentally, legs almost giving out , head spinning , heart racing but she couldn't stop, not now , not when she was that close , not after all those sacrifices, she had to find him. She promised so.
"No matter what happens I will always find you" she intertwined her pinky with his offering him a toothed smile
"Always?" the little boy squeezed her pinky wiping the remnants of his tears
"Always" she nodded eagerly leaning in to kiss his tear away.
"I'll always find you my prince" she hugged him.
"My prince" she murmured breath coming in short condensed puffs , vision blurring.
A loud crash made the fairies's head snap back toward the entrance of the sanctuary.
They haven't left Zayne's side since he was cursed by the King , waiting , hoping he'd woke up.
"You" Sonia surged towards the intruder tigging harshly at her hair but the poor girl didn't have any energy to fight back, sinking to her knees at the sight of Zayne laying among the white colored flowers, looking pale and lifeless.
"I am too late" she whispered tears streaming down her face.
The fairies a stood frozen and dumbfounded.
She was crying.
"His love is here" Rose murmured pink eyes fixed on the princess who crawled her way toward where Zayne was resting.
"What If it's that evil Queen" Sonia exclaimed still wary but no longer attacking her
"No" Sapphire murmured "her heart is not as evil as Onyx"
"I am so sorry" she sobbed , bouce broken, limp body resting at his side " sorry for not keeping my promise" she murmured against his hand , it was so cold but nothing was colder than the sorrows engulfing her , torturing her already battered heart. "Sorry for not finding you earlier"
The fairies all hand their head low , watching helplessly as she poured her soul out tears coating the white fabric of Zayne shirt. Hair splayed out like an halo around her.
It was still snowing outside , the first snow of the season.
"Your highness" Rose approached her , patting her hair gently making the heartbroken princess finally look up at her.
"Do not cry" she wiped her cheeks "he wouldn't like seeing you so heartbroken"
"It doesn't matter anymore" the princess sniffled softly "he's gone"
"Not quite" the pink haired fairy retorted
"you can still bring him back" Sapphire spoke up approaching them as well.
"With a true love kiss" Sonia trailed eyes fixed on the ground.
The Princess's eyes widened, a new found flick of hope glimmering in her earlier dull eyes.
"A kiss?" She croaked out, voice hoarse from her sobs
"A kiss" the fairies nodded looking between Zayne still trapped in his dream and her.
Her eye flickered to Zayne as well , inhaling deeply. She moisten her dry lips bracing herself to kiss her childhood friend , her long last love. The man she sacrificed so much for but a fluttery voice interrupted her.
"Wait you cant just kiss hil withe day lips" Sonia interjected making Hydrangea groan
"Sonia now it's not the time" but she wasn't listening already making her wat towards the strawberry plant then come back with a fresh and red strawberry.
"Here" she placed the fruit in the girl's hand who tilted her head curiously at her.
"For your lips" Sonia instructed.
"Oh" a flash of realization washed over her features before she hastily applied the red berry on her dried up lips.
Smacking them together to smear the pigment. She took another deep breath.
"Ready now" she murmured more to herself than anyone.
She leaned down, eyes darting between Zayne's closed eyes and startly parted lips.
Just do it just do it.
All the fairies hold their breath Sonia burying her face in Hydrangea's flower to not see her beloved being kissed by a woman.
When the Princess's lips finally pressed against Zayne's she felt small tingles down her spine. Her heart speeding up but as he stayed still unconscious she untangled herself from him , sitting up to gaze at his peaceful face.
It didn't work
She looked over the fairies who were as lost as her.
Losing hope she sank against him , eyes filling with tears that trickled on his skin.
"Strawberry" an hoarse voice croaked out "I thought you hated them"
She quickly sat up, eyes widening in disbelief.
"You" she bursted in sobs , smacking his chest making him let out a small grunt "you're awake" she wrapped her arms around his neck , holding as physically close as possible.
Zayne caressed her back softly , letting her cry against his chest.
"Dont cry" he murmured chin resting on top of her head.
"You stubborn little" she smacked him again still sobbing. "If only you listened to me and didn't participate to that damn hunt" she sniffled finally untangling herself from his form to glare at him.
"Well at last, I got my reward" he caressed her cheeks softly wiping her tears.
"On the first snowfall" he looked up at the Snowy sky through the glass above their head
"You know what that means?" He looked back at her cupping her cheek to bring her closer to him "we'll now last forever" he whispered against her lips before capturing them in a passionate kiss pouring all those years of longing and unconditional love in a single kiss.
"I love you my Queen" he murmured between kisses refusing to part enen for a second , afraid she might slip through his finger "and yes I wish to marry you" he rested his forehead against hers thumbs stroking her cheeks.
She was too stunned to speak , overwhelmed by too many emotions to process them properly
Her hands found their way to his hair caressing the soft strands while she planted a kiss on his mouth another and another puncturing each of them with a small o love you. They were both lost in their own words
While the fairies were celebrating ,dancing around them while causing small snowflakes raining upon of them .
"So how does it feels to see your dear crush having his happily ever after ?" Htdrangea teased Sonia who seemed to be the happiest of them all.
"It feels good I feel happy just by seeing him happy" she chuckled making Hydrangea's eyebrows furrow
Why isn't she jealous?
"I am still not forgiving you for not listening to me though" the princess murmured against his lips hands caressing the hair at his nape
"Its alright" he hummed still holding her close against his chest " I have a whole lifetime to make up for it." He placed a tender kiss on her forehead.
And this how hidden in secluded sanctuary in the deep forest , under the first snowfall they sealed their fate , after facing the hardest of the challenges , they finally got their happily ever after.
"And what happened to the Evil Queen and the owl king ?" Te little girl asked , brown eyebrows furrowed in confusion
"The evil Queen had to pay the price for borrowing the power of her mirror , some legends said she got trapped in that said mirror while her son rotted in the deep forest." Zayne replied adjusting her in her bed , tucking the little girl nicely under the covers
"Did the princess and the prince get married and the king ? Did he turn back into an human?" She fired question after question
"Yes , yes he did and the princess and the prince indeed got married and had a lovely daughter together" he said before leaving a kiss on her forehead
"Now go to sleep my little snowflake" he patted her head softly.
She hummed in response sinking into the plush mattress
"Goodnight Daddy" she murmured before letting out a yawn
"Goodnight my angel" he smiled softly before carefully getting out of her room
"Is her majesty finally asleep?" A voice rang out behind him
"Finaly yes" he murmured turning around to face his lovely wife.
"Well now I guess it's my time to have the King's attention" she said before wrapping her arms around his neck
"Hmm" he braced his hand beneath her thighs lifting her effortlessly "I am all yours , my Queen" he murmured against her lips
"Ever since you kissed me on the first snowfall or even sooner" he added carrying her towards their shared bedroom.
"Careful if you keep saying things like that it will make it hard for me to stay quiet" she grinned cheekily , caressing the hair at his nape.
"Better keep it down sweetheart, we don't want to wake up our little angel do we ?" He teased closing the door behind him with his foot.

— FARE THEE WELL
PAIRING — Ser Gwayne Hightower x fem!Reader
SUMMARY — You're a barmaid who had a fling with a noble knight a few moons ago. Now he comes back for one more night to spend with you before he leaves to join the war.
AUTHOR’S NOTE — It’s based on the idea for a fic by @peachysunrize that I really liked and since I usually write wife!Readers and noble born Readers in this Universe, it felt nice to explore a new trope. I couldn't help myself to make it a bit angsty as well, for which I am sorry... 🙈
WARNINGS — angsty ending, SMUT, bath sex, slight choking
WORD COUNT — 5,420
🔞 THIS FIC IS 18+ 🔞
ENGLISH IS MY SECOND LANGUAGE.
FARE THEE WELL
It was a nice and peaceful afternoon at the Tavern where you worked. The sky was blue and clear with only a few clouds and a slight wind was messing with the reckless strands of your braided hair whenever you went outside with the mugs full of beer and bowls full of food for your customers.
“There are men coming,” your boss told you after walking downstairs. “I saw ‘em from the window. A few knights on the horses that will need water and hay. They have King Aegon’s banners,” he rubbed his hands together. “This war’s good for business,” he hummed to himself.
You only nodded at that and wiped your hands in your dirty apron. The war could be good for business indeed but it also meant lots of work with demanding knights and noblemen although you hoped for some generous tips if only you acted nice enough.
“Make it look presentable, will ya?” Your boss barked at you at the sight of the counter. The crumbs were scattered all over the surface and it was sticky from the beer.
You nodded obediently and cursed under your breath when he turned around. You collected all the crumbs with the side of your hand and threw them away into the bin nearby where you kept your waste before taking it out. Then, you began to clean the counter with the damp cloth.
Busy on taking care of every little sticky spot because your boss tended to be a perfectionist, you forgot about the men coming to the Tavern already. Therefore, when the doors opened loudly, you got startled and jumped in your spot before looking up.
Your eyes widened at the sight of the familiar looking armours. You had known once a man who was wearing armour like that – green and silver with golden ornaments and a symbol of the lighthouse on his chest. You had to blink a few times to snap back to reality.
“It is my favourite Tavern in these parts,” one of the men announced and your heart skipped a beat. Oh, you knew that voice but… Was it possible that it was your mind playing tricks on you?
He took his helmet off and rested it on his hip, holding it with his left hand as he ran his right hand through his auburn hair and you gasped.
Ser Gwayne Hightower. Oh, you knew that man.
It had been a few moons ago when you had met him. He had been staying with a Lord living nearby, discussing the matters such noble men usually discussed. He had been trying to explain it to you on those nights spent together in one of the rooms upstairs but you had never fully grasped it.
What you had understood from his story was that he was the eldest son of Otto Hightower who had been King Viserys’ Lord Hand at that time. He was running Oldtown in his father’s name and sometimes he travelled to different parts of Westeros to meet with the vassals and to make the new ones. You remembered that you had asked him about his wife but he had assured you of having none.
You could feel your cheeks heating up at all the shared memories from all those moons ago. You hadn’t expected to see him again ever in your life.
It was not like you were sharing bed with every man visiting your workplace. It was a Tavern, not a brothel and you were only a barmaid, not a whore. But Ser Gwayne was different. From the moment you had seen him, you had known he was special. Something about him was making you feel the way no other man had ever been able to make you feel. He was worth risking everything.
And to him you had been only another adventure, a girl to warm his bed while he was away from home. At least in the beginning. With time, after many nights spent together on talking and fucking, he had started to grow fond of you. He had admitted that himself. He had been confused by what he was capable of feeling towards a common barmaid. And you had been surprised by that as well.
His blue eyes searched the room and then he spotted you, right behind the counter. He smiled at you and walked up as you straightened your back, with the damp cloth still in your hand.
“Well, well, well, and look who’s here,” he looked you up and down with a smug smile. You furrowed your brow, a little confused by his approach. Not that you expected him to pick you up and spin you round. After all, you were no Lady, you were no Princess. “Cole?” He beckoned over another knight.
His armour was not a Hightower one but it was also grand. He had short black hair and big, brown eyes.
“That’s our new Hand of The King, Ser Criston Cole,” Ser Gwayne introduced you and you panicked at first. You had no idea if it was some jestering or was he serious, so you decided to bow down slightly and Ser Gwayne chuckled at you. “And that is my favourite… barmaid,” he introduced you and you swallowed a lump in your throat.
His arrival was not as sweet as his departure all those moons ago when he had nearly had tears in his eyes while kissing your hand goodbye. He had made you feel like a Lady then.
Now, he made you feel like a common whore. And that had to be what The Hand thought as well when he was nodding his head at you. Ser Cole didn’t spare you any more glance and he walked away to sit by one of the tables with other men.
“We shall stay here for the night,” Ser Gwayne informed you and your boss standing behind you.
“That is an honour, Ser,” your boss nodded. “What are you in need of?”
“We want food, beer, baths and rooms to sleep in,” Ser Gwayne threw a few coins on the counter carelessly. “Our horses require tending as well.”
“I’ll fetch them some water and hay,” you cleared your throat and put the cloth down before fixing the reckless hair strands on your hair and walking out as quickly as possible.
Ser Gwayne’s confused eyes followed you but you didn’t look back since you already had tears in your own. All those moons of remembering a sweet, chivalrous knight who had stolen your heart… All those moons of dreaming about him and missing him… The fantasies and memories had all been based on an illusion. It did not feel nice to realise that.
You entered the stables and saw beautiful, armoured horses. They looked very elegant and you were taking your time with petting and feeding them. You wanted to spend as much time in the stables as possible. It was quiet there and the horses would never hurt you the way certain humans would.
As you were caressing one of the horses gently with your hand and watching him eat with a soft smile upon your face, you heard footsteps behind you. You sighed, assuming it would be your boss or another barmaid he had sent after you. But no, when you turned around, you saw Ser Gwayne himself; his face lit up just slightly from all the candles inside the Tavern next to the stables. The sun had set already while you were with the horses.
“Do forgive my tardiness, good Ser,” you cracked a smile at him.
“Sweet darling, why are you addressing me like that?” He approached you and stood right behind you. His hands touched your arms as he breathed in your scent. You were confused.
“Me, Ser Gwayne? Hasn’t it been you treating me like a common whore? Why are you back here, Ser, by the way? Were the brothels all busy or perhaps is our King Aegon running out of coins in his treasure, so you wanted to go back to a silly barmaid who is giving herself to you willingly, free of charge?” You asked but it was not asked with anger – your voice was filled with hurt as you looked down.
“Aren’t you adorable,”Ser Gwayne only chuckled before leaning in to cup your chin and force your head to turn around, gently. You looked up at him and he joined your lips together in a sweet kiss.
You gave in immediately and you hated yourself for it but there was something so charming and alluring about that man… You couldn’t deny yourself a gentle kiss from his lips.
“My sweet,” he cooed to you, looking intensely at your face with so much adoration that you couldn’t believe that a man as noble as him was capable of it. Such a look on his face should be reserved for the Princesses or pretty Ladies he would win tournaments for. Certainly not for you. “I couldn’t possibly reveal how much you mean to me in front of everybody, could I?” He explained to you. “There has been no day for me without remembering you, sweet (Y/N),” he whispered and your name had never sounded so pretty in anyone’s lips.
Your name was usually shouted by men rushing you to bring them their orders faster or by your angry boss. You had never expected to actually get a taste of what it would be like to be a real Lady. But when Ser Gwayne was whispering your name in such a delicate manner, you suddenly were a noble woman and your heart was at peace.
It brought heat to your cheeks immediately and you looked away since his gaze was getting too intense.
“I have been thinking of you, too, Ser Gwayne,” you confessed. “I have been praying to the Warrior for you and… to the Maiden… for myself.”
“Oh, have you?” Ser Gwayne chuckled and bit on his lower lip. “If I removed your skirts, I would find your knees scratched then?” He teased you.
You were taken away by his straightforward words and you walked away from him to finish your work with the horses but he kept standing there and observing you.
“I am on my way to war. A real one like I have never experienced before,” he confessed. “A real one like I have been trained to take my part in ever since I was a child, wielding a wooden practice sword.”
“It is a dangerous war coming, Ser,” you nodded, focusing on pouring the water for the horses. You didn’t want to look up and meet his gaze because you would burst out in tears if you saw his face now. “People talk that the dragons shall dance in the sky and it will be nothing but blood and fire,” you mumbled out. You didn’t want Ser Gwayne to leave for such an awful, horrible war.
“You do realise then that simple men like me do not stand a chance,” he tried to be playful about it.
“I do not wish to speak of it, Ser,” you interrupted him and shook your head, sniffling your tears back.
“Me neither, sweet (Y/N). I want my one last night of peace… Or at least an illusion of it. And I couldn’t imagine it anywhere else other than here. With you,” he informed you and nodded his head before walking out of the stables.
This time you hurried with the horses and you came back inside the Tavern as fast as possible. Your boss gave you an unpleasant look.
“What has taken you so long?”
“They’re no common horses. They’re fancy,” you rolled your eyes at him, coming up with excuses. “They demand special treatment,” you chuckled.
Your eyes sparkled while letting out that laughter and you spotted Ser Gwayne by one of the tables. Your gaze met with his for a brief moment and your whole body filled with so much warmth and nostalgia that you nearly exploded right there, in the middle of that awful Tavern.
Ser Gwayne would forever remain your what if. What if you had been born a Lady. What if he had been born a peasant. You would still love him, of that you were sure. If he was a miller, a smith or a carpenter, you would marry him in a heartbeat and perhaps your lives would be much simpler than as a Lord and a Lady.
Ser Gwayne beckoned you over with a wave of his hand and you fixed your skirts before approaching him. Some of his men were staring at you as well but you only cared for his blue eyes. Here, in the light of the Tavern, he looked even better than in the stables.
“Are you busy mayhaps, fair maiden?” He winked at you and you were trying very hard not to roll your eyes at the question.
“Depends on what you’re asking of me, kind Ser,” you bowed your head slightly.
“We have a long road ahead of us,” he answered. “I would love a long and relaxing bath.”
From the corner of your eye, you saw some of his men smirking. You just nodded your head at his words.
“I shall ask one of the girls to prepare it for you, Ser,” you teased him, pretending to sound as serious and professional as possible.
“Oh, no, no, my sweetling,” Ser Gwayne reached his hand out to squeeze yours. “You shall go upstairs now and prepare me one,” he told you.
“If you insist, Ser,” you bowed your head and turned around with a soft smile to approach your boss who was busy counting money at the moment.
“Ser Gwayne asked me for a bath,” you informed him and he only nodded without even looking up at you as he dismissed you with a wave of his hand.
You grabbed your skirts in your hands and rushed upstairs where some other girls working at the Tavern were busy with preparing the rooms for the knights.
“Which chambers are Ser Gwayne’s?” You asked and one of them pointed at the ajar door at the other side of the corridor.
“I’ve just finished preparin’ it,” she informed you and you smiled at her.
“Ser Gwayne wants a bath,” you told her. “Go to the kitchen and bring me buckets with warm water.”
She nodded and hurried downstairs as you entered the chambers that were prepared for Ser Gwayne. They were one of the nicest ones that the Tavern had for the guests but you knew it had to be nothing compared to his chambers in Oldtown.
However, walking around those chambers was bringing memories to you as you smiled to yourself. All those moons ago he had been staying in these chambers as well for some nights. And perhaps for him those were just dirty rooms at some common Tavern but to you those were the fanciest chambers you had ever slept in.
Your dreamy pacing around was interrupted by the arrival of a few girls carrying buckets with warm water. They placed it on the floor and went back to their other duties as you approached the bathtub and began filling it. You sat on the edge and took your time with it like you had before with the horses. You wanted to cherish every moment of that sweet gesture you were doing – taking care of Ser Gwayne. Like a wife would.
Well, perhaps noble wives were not known for such activities. But if you were peasants like you had imagined before, you would be the one responsible for preparing his baths every other day. And you would do it gladly, without complaints. You would love to take care of him when he’d be back from work, dirty and tired. But none of that would matter since you would have him for yourself and you would have him every day, falling asleep in his arms and waking up in them.
The door opened slightly with a squeak and you looked up to see Ser Gwayne himself walking inside with a loving smile.
“You look really domestic like that,” he told you before closing the door behind him.
“Do I, good Ser?” You asked with a sad smile as you dipped your fingers in the water to check its temperature.
“Will you help me to undress?” He asked of you and you nodded, although awkwardly.
You were not familiar with all those armour pieces, however you had a small experience in taking them off of him already. You approached him and started to work on his armour piece by piece, painfully slowly. You were glad the water your friends had brought was boiling hot because you didn’t want him to whine about it being too cold later but you also didn’t want to rush this moment.
“Your fingers are so soft,” Ser Gwayne pointed out when you were working on a chest piece. “Softer than my squire’s for sure,” he chuckled.
“I know it is surprising for a commoner to have soft hands, Ser, but I work a lot in the kitchen and the butter tends to soften the skin,” you explained.
“You must look pretty in the kitchen,” Ser Gwayne pointed out and you looked up at him, questioningly. “With flour on your cheeks and nose, busy little bee,” he explained.
“Who would have thought that a noble knight would be into that,” you commented with a smirk.
“There is still a lot you ought to learn about me, (Y/N),” he whispered. “Would you cook or bake something for me if I asked you to?”
“I would bake you bread and those cakes you liked so much the last time you were here,” you looked up to meet his gaze. He blushed a little at the remark about cakes. “What? You are spoiled, kind Ser, that is not a secret. But I would happily spoil you myself, too.”
“Perhaps I should take you with me to Oldtown and hire you in The Hightower. I think you would like it there, my sweet,” he teased but his voice was more serious than you expected. “Perhaps I shall fetch you on my way back home after the war is won.”
“Perhaps,” you shrugged your arms. “My whole family lives here, however, and Oldtown is far away.”
In fact, Oldtown was like a place from the fairytales to you. It was far, far away and you would never really go there, realistically speaking. And it was a place where your Ser lived and in your imagination it had to be a beautiful and lively place… It was out of your reach in many ways.
A short, awkward silence occurred after that as you worked on the last pieces of his armour and there he stood, only in his underwear. You bowed your head at him.
“I believe my work here is done, Ser. I would recommend getting into that bathtub before the water gets cold,” you advised him.
“Oh, my sweet, won’t you stay to help me wash my back?” He grinned at you and you cracked a smile.
You were hoping for such words. So, you did not leave but stayed, with your hands clasped in front of you as you watched him get undressed completely. You tried not to give any reaction to his naked body while you watched him get inside the bathtub and let out a groan of pleasure at the feeling.
“Come here, sweet little thing,” he beckoned you over and you approached the bathtub slowly. “Join me,” he encouraged.
You hesitated but only for a second and you began to undress as he watched. His eyes were looking you up and down and you started with the apron. You wanted to get rid of it as soon as possible because it was the worst piece of your clothing, an awful reminder of your low status.
The blouse was next and then your skirts. Your corset was loosened from the whole day at work so it slipped off very easily. You were left in your underdress only but you untied your braid before taking it off as well and there you stood, naked and with your hair down as your eyes boldly met his. He had a smug smile on his face.
“You’re still as beautiful as I remembered,” Ser Gwayne remarked and reached his hand out to brush your knee with his fingers. “Come to me,” he invited you.
You joined him in the bathtub very slowly, starting with your right foot and then the left one before lowering yourself and sitting on the opposite side of Ser Gwayne.
“Your knees are scratched indeed,” he pointed out and you chuckled.
“They always are, Ser, for I am a barmaid. I spend half of my days on my knees, washing the floors,” you explained.
“Those pretty knees were made for different things, my sweet,” he assured you with a smirk as he moved a little closer to you.
He grabbed your knees softly and then he pulled you closer to him as you yelped and some of the water splashed out on the floor. You giggled and threw your hands around him to clasp them behind his neck as your faces were so close now that your noses brushed.
“And what have you been up to, kind Ser? Have you gotten married? Fathered a son?” You teased and he rolled his eyes.
“All my thoughts have been occupied by a pretty barmaid,” he confessed and caressed your thighs while you hummed to yourself.
“Oh, have they? And who is she? Is she prettier than me? Is she lovelier than me?” You rubbed your nose with his as you asked, playfully.
“She is exactly as pretty as you. Exactly as lovely as you and she even has your name,” Ser Gwayne answered before stealing a kiss from your lips.
The kiss started nearly innocently but it quickly turned into a more passionate one. It didn’t want to end and you turned out to be gasping into each other’s mouths as your hands tugged onto his hair and his fingers squeezed the soft flesh of your hips, pulling them as close to his body as possible.
“I’ve missed you,” he breathed out and moved his hands up to cup your breasts. “I’ve missed all of you. Your body, your voice, your smile, your cunt,” he confessed and his obscene words made your cheeks heat up.
And not only your cheeks. Your whole body was on fire now. To have him so close and to feel his hands on your skin was enough to make you feel dizzy. You let go of his hair and you placed your hands on his chest to push him gently. Ser Gwayne leaned back and you sat astride him, making sure that his hardening cock was brushing your soft thighs.
“My cunt’s been missing you, too,” you whispered before joining your lips together once more.
You kissed him sloppily, with your tongue and teeth clashing. One of your hands was placed upon his chest for balance and the other you moved down to grab his cock. He let out a moan into your mouth when you started to pump his length. You could feel it growing harder and harder.
Ser Gwayne kept his hands on your back but now he let them run freely all the way down as he cupped your ass and squeezed the soft flesh. His fingers wandered all the way down and brushed your folds, teasing your entrance in a way that was making your pussy throb in anticipation already.
“Have you taken another cock since our last time?” Ser Gwayne asked you and you sincerely shook your head. “Aw, my sweetling, you must be so eager,” he teased.
“And what about you, Ser? Have you been good?” You smirked at him.
You knew already that in the intimate moments the power difference between you two due to your birth status did not matter anymore. In fact, Ser Gwayne liked it when you challenged him.
“There is a brothel in Oldtown I find very enjoyable,” he confessed and bucked his hips slightly when you picked up the pace of your hand wrapped around his cock. “But none of these women could give me what my sweet little barmaid had given to me,” he added.
“Your sweet little barmaid would not be as special as you claim her to be if any common whore would give you what only she can give you, Ser,” you raised an eyebrow at him.
“I even chose the ones who looked like you – who reminded me of you – but they were doing nothing to me,” he breathed out and you leaned in, pressing your forehead to his.
“Aw, you must be so eager,” you teased him with his own words and a smirk as you guided his cock to your cunt.
You both gasped in unison at the feeling you had been missing for so long. His cock twitched inside of your wet, warm pussy that welcomed him with spazmatic throbs. You threw your head back and dug your fingernails into his shoulders, savouring the feeling of fullness.
“Fuck, my sweetling, aren’t you perfect,” Ser Gwayne mumbled out and you looked down at his face through your lashes. Your eyes were hazy from lust and the look you gave him had to be as sultry as if you were one of the whores who had only been pretending to be you in those past few moons.
Keeping your intense gaze on him, you began to move your hips up and down until you found your steady pace and continued to bounce on his cock as the water splashed. Ser Gwayne helped you to ride him with his hands on your hips but he quickly got distracted with your breasts that were right in front of his face. He moved his hands up to cup and squeeze them while you hissed at the feeling.
Feeling confident in your pace and rhythm, you let go of his shoulders and moved your hands to his neck. You looked into his eyes, searching for the confirmation and he nodded at you slightly, so you squeezed your hands a bit. He had taught you all those moons ago how such a simple action would increase the pleasure. You watched with satisfaction as his eyelids fluttered before his eyes rolled to the back of his head and he let out a deep groan.
Your back arched as if you were a cat when you lowered yourself onto his body to feel more of him and to allow his cock reach deeper inside of you, brushing your sweet spot with each thrust. Your breaths were nothing but gasps now, accompanied with soft moans coming out of your parted lips. Riding him in that bathtub, with your hands around his throat and his pretty, flushed face right in front of yours, suddenly nothing else mattered – this Tavern did not, these chambers did not either and certainly all his titles mattered the least. This life and the world were so complicated sometimes but at the end of the day all that mattered was this – two people being close with each other, intimate, sharing pleasure.
“Gods,” you let out a shaky whisper when you felt a knot forming in your abdomen. Your sweet release was close after all those moons of missing him with every fibre of your being.
“Let go for me, my sweetling,” Ser Gwayne encouraged you, his voice was raspy from your choking as he forced his hazy eyes to open and watch you coming undone for him with a loud moan.
You threw your head back and kept riding him while your cunt clenched around his cock and your hands squeezed his throat even tighter. That sensation and the sight of your face was enough to make him reach his high, too. He spilled himself inside of you and your cunt milked him eagerly, taking in every single drop.
The movements of your hips slowed down gradually and Ser Gwayne’s cock softened inside of you but you had no strength to move. You laid down on his chest and tried to catch your breath, still shaking slightly. He wrapped his strong arms around you and caressed your back, letting his rough fingertips wander up and down your spine.
“The water’s getting cold, my sweet,” he pointed out after a while.
You raised your chin up to meet his gaze with a delicate smile.
“You are so spoiled, Ser,” you remarked. “I believe you have never taken a cold bath.”
He winced at that and you chuckled before placing a kiss on his throat, where your fingers had been pressing not so long ago. After that, you moved up and left the bathtub although your legs remained pretty shaky.
You leaned down to pick up your underdress but Ser Gwayne stopped you.
“Don’t,” he said, getting out of the bathtub himself. “You shall stay here for the night. I am not yet done with you.”
It was early morning and you were feeding the horses in the stables. The sun was barely up but the knights had to come back to their camp before leaving with the rest of the men and continuing their march. You had barely had any sleep on the previous night but you did not complain about it.
“I knew I would find you here,” Ser Gwayne walked inside when you were caressing one of the stallions. “I wanted to give you a proper goodbye,” he walked up to you.
You looked up at his face and you smiled to yourself. He looked pretty tired himself and you knew the reason behind that. But the exhaustion was not making him any less handsome.
“Fare thee well, my kind Ser,” you turned around to squeeze his hands that he had reached out for you.
“Can you give me your blessing before I leave?” He asked and there was surprisingly no teasing in his voice.
“I’m no Princess nor a Lady,” you looked down slightly as your cheeks heated up.
“I do not care. I will not be at peace without your blessing, my sweet,” he insisted.
“I do not have a handkerchief to give you, Ser,” you looked up again as you confessed and stood on your tiptoes to press a kiss to his forehead. “That is all I can offer.”
“That is more than enough,” Ser Gwayne smiled sadly at you. He let go of your hands and reached to his chest. He took off a necklace that he was wearing – a small ring on a chain. You had asked about it all those moons ago and he had confessed then that it had belonged to his Lady Mother once. “I want you to have it,” he gave it to you and you froze.
“I… I cannot accept it, Ser,” your eyes widened.
“You must for I insist,” he closed your hands around it and squeezed them. “You shall give it back to me when I visit you after the war,” he bit on his lower lip as he looked at your face in anticipation, curious of your reaction.
“That is… The most generous,” your eyes filled with tears. “I shall keep it safe for you, Ser,” you promised.
He nodded at that and watched you put the necklace around your neck before he took your hand and placed a soft kiss upon it as if it was a hand of a Princess or a Lady and not a common barmaid.
“Farewell, my sweetling,” he whispered.
“Farewell, Ser Gwayne,” you whispered back.
You stared into each other’s eyes for a while and then he nodded at you again and moved away at the sound of other men walking inside the stables.
You watched them mount their horses but your eyes were truly only on him and he kept watching you from the corner of his eye, too. You walked outside to observe them as they rode away and Ser Gwayne turned around one last time before disappearing down the road. You squeezed the ring on the necklace in your hand and your heart moved all the way up to your throat, forming a lump that was hard to swallow.
A few years later you would give the necklace to your son – alongside with the tale of his brave and noble father from Oldtown.

How to Improve Your English Grammar
English grammar can be a daunting task for many people, especially for those who do not have English as their native language. However, with the right approach and some practice, anyone can improve their English grammar. Here are some tips to help you improve your English grammar,
Understand the basics of English grammar
Before you start improving your grammar, you need to have a solid understanding of the basics of English grammar.

Practice speaking and writing
Practice speaking and writing in English as much as possible. This will help you get comfortable with the language and develop a better sense of how to use grammar in real-life situations. You can start by writing short paragraphs, essays, or journal entries in English. You can also practice speaking with native speakers or language exchange partners.
Use grammar-checking tools
There are many online grammar-checking tools available that can help you identify and correct grammar mistakes in your writing. Use these tools to get feedback on your writing and to learn from your mistakes. However, be careful not to rely too much on these tools, as they can sometimes make mistakes and overlook certain nuances in the language.
Get feedback from others
Ask for feedback on your writing and speaking from native speakers or language teachers. This will help you identify your strengths and weaknesses and get advice on how to improve. You can also join language groups or forums online to get feedback from other learners and to practice with them.

hi again i rlly liked ur headcanons for choi su-bong x shy fem reader and i was wondering if u could pls write headcanons of him x foreigner fem reader? ty and have a good day 🫶
ft. choi su-bong x f! reader — squid game
╰₊✧foreign! reader┊0.5k words
contains: headcanons!! reader’s native country is unspecified but she speaks her native language and english while studying korean!
➤ author's note: alright, this is the last for the short specific reader headcanons, the next thanos fic will be an actual one-shot <3
╰₊✧ notices you immediately both because you’re a cute girl and because you stand out in a crowd like he does. korea has a very homogeneous population, so people tend to take notice of you quickly. he probably greets you with a casual “what’s up” and decides right then and there that you’re going to be friends or maybe something more, you don’t really have a choice in the matter because people who stick out like you should stick together! he doesn’t mind if you’re shy because of your broken korean, he’s a master of language and wordplay and will gladly help you out!
╰₊✧ because he’s teaching you stuff he already knows and isn’t learning anything, he’s actually a lot of fun to study with. he always finds a way to make it fun and easy to remember with high-fives each time you get a question right. i feel like he was an awful student who went through a lot of tutors (only during exam season when he needed to get his grades up to pass the class though), so he knows all the best tips and tricks that worked on him when he was younger.
╰₊✧ is probably one of those guys who asks what the swear words are and what cultural insults there are. he wants to use them other people so that he can get away with saying shit to their faces without getting caught, something that he already does in english but would like to know more
╰₊✧ even if you may not fit traditional korean beauty standards, he thinks you’re so hot. might use the term “exotic” because he doesn’t know better, but he won’t use it again once you tell him that it’s objectifying.
╰₊✧ once you two start dating, he will seriously want to learn your native language. i can see him as someone who appreciates linguistics and admires multilingual people, loving to listen to music of all genres around the world and having a pretty diverse set of favorite artists. he might pout and bitch that it’s too difficult at first, but he’s surprisingly smart when he wants to be and will be conversationally fluent in about a year (it would be shorter if he was more consistent in his studies but alas).
╰₊✧ really looks forward to visiting your home country! he’ll try his best to be as respectful as his obnoxious ass can be, although i see him being accidentally offensive a few times because he can be a bit ignorant. loves to meet fans there and would probably go out of his way to make at least one appearance there if he ever had a worldwide concert tour no matter how off-course it may be.
╰₊✧ when it comes to meeting your family, he puts all of his knowledge to the test to win their approval (god knows he needs all the help he can get when he looks the way he does, especially if you have a conservative family). however, he doesn’t really care if they don’t approve of him as he finds it to be more of a bonus than a requirement.
╰₊✧ 100% wants to come back during your honeymoon, maybe even have a second wedding to adhere to your traditions if you so desire it. don’t worry about finances, he’s got it all covered!

magic tricks and magical d*cks
Kinktober Day 3 | Johnny Masterlist | Member Masterlist
tags: warlock!johnny, wand puns, magic, blowjobs, cock worship, fingering, strangers to lovers
length: 5435
Growing up, you’d always believed in magic.
You were raised on Harry Potter, dreaming of getting your Hogwarts letter at eleven, disappointed when it didn’t arrive. As a child, you spent a lot of time making up rhyming phrases with your friends that you pretended were spells, buying crystals, trying to channel the innate magic you knew you must have been born with.
Nothing.
Once you reached high school, you started getting into the occult, into underground communities that truly believed in and practiced magic. Real magic.
It was all real.
A whole world mingled with yours, practicing magic and demonology and all sorts of incredible things that you’d almost begun to think couldn’t exist.
But it does.
You find your community in Chicago, on the shores of Lake Michigan.
And it’s there that you learn of Johnny.
Johnny isn’t necessarily what you expected a warlock to be. You hear warlock and you imagine an uber-powerful grizzly, gnarled older man wearing robes and wielding a staff, chanting in an ancient, forgotten language.
But Johnny is young and hot, he dresses like a runway model, and when you’re lucky enough to observe him spell-casting he uses English and occasionally Korean. And he’s the top warlock in the Midwest.
He’s everything you aspire to be as a spellcaster. Johnny has the power and prestige that you’ve felt you’re destined to have. He’s a god among mere mortals.
So you’re kind of his fangirl. Among the magic-scene of Chicago, Johnny is sort of like the hottest bachelor, a party boy who hosts the best parties because everything is enhanced by magic — the lights, the music, the food, booze, drugs — and he’s like the mayor of the underground. He takes care of the city and surrounding areas, overseeing infrastructure spells, protection spells, making sure that local spellcasters don’t go too wild on the holidays.
He basically reminds you of Magnus Bane from the Mortal Instruments series (who you’d definitely had a crush on while reading the books and when you’d watched the film).
Shortly after you ingratiate yourself into the magical community in Chicago, you befriend a man named Kun. Kun began his interest in magic with sleight of hand and card magic, but he’d slowly slid into true magic, learning from a talented wizard in China before Kun heard about Johnny. He immigrated to America just to move to Chicago and learn from the best.
Though, when you meet him, Kun hasn’t yet succeeded in attaining the apprenticeship with Johnny just yet.
“But I’m learning a lot of new spells,” he tells you. “It’s interesting how spells differ around the world, in different languages. How different people access their magic.”
Kun, for example, uses a stereotypical magician wand – the ebony stick with ivory tips. When you came to Chicago and found the community, a kindly old witch helped you create your wand – a short oak wand with a rose quartz set in the tip. But you’ve known witches that exclusively use crystals to access their powers, warlocks who wield staffs, some access their magic through amulets, and there’s even been a warlock you met that simply used his iPhone to cast his spells.
But, typically, almost all of the spellcasters you’ve met have used wands of some sort, and you love it when everyone comes together, as it gives you the chance to see the diversity of magic, like Kun was saying.
It’s Kun that first introduces you to the celebrity of Johnny on your first New Years Eve in the city, dragging you along to the warlock’s citywide blessing celebration. It's there that you first lay eyes on Johnny’s beauty, and you first witness him perform magic.
You’re far back in the crowd, but you can hear Johnny's voice booming over the crowd as midnight nears, he promises a safe and prosperous year, and as the seconds tick down, Johnny begins casting. You can’t see him at all, but you see the resulting network of protection thrown up in the sky, stretching towards the outer limits, resembling fireworks as midnight strikes.
It’s the most incredible magic you’ve ever seen, and suddenly you understand Kun’s obsession with the warlock.
As you leave the site, Kun nearly crushes your hand when he realizes that you’re walking right by where Johnny stands. He’s just standing there with a sparkling glass of champagne in hand, laughing with a group of people. His hair is long, down to his chin, dyed a warm shade of brown, a bit windblown.
You pause, watching him for a moment, and you swear his gaze slips away from one of the other men he’s talking to, and for a second his eyes meet yours.
A warm spark embeds itself in your chest.
And then he’s looking away again, and Kun’s pulling you down the park path towards the train station. But you’re hooked on Johnny by that point.
“It’s my goal to get invited to one of his parties,” Kun tells you once you’re on the train home. “I know a guy who’s apprenticed to Johnny, and he keeps promising me that he’s going to get me an invite to a party, or at least put in a good word the next time an apprenticeship spot opens.”
You go on with your normal life, hearing about Johnny through the gossip network of magic users you encounter in the city.
In those first few months of the year, you’re so busy with work (at your devastatingly non-magical job) that you don’t get much practice in with your spell work except for simple ones like housework, warming spells, and some productivity spells to help you finish your work a little faster. When March rolls around, thawing the city a little from deep winter, replacing all of the snow and ice with lots of rain (mixed with some days of snow and ice), you finally catch a little break.
“We thought you’d left the city,” a witch friend says when you finally show up at a weekly Witching and Wining night at a witch-run bar. “No one’s seen you in months! Whatever you want, babe, tonight it’s on me. I’ve missed you, and I’ve been dying to tell you about this client I had!”
She buys your first drink of the night, sits there babbling at you about a client who hired her for some cosmetic architectural spellwork. A few other witches and warlocks join in with stories of their horrible clients, and soon you’re feeling a little more grateful that your magic isn’t yet up to the par of being able to take on a magical occupation.
One warlock, who works as a meteorologist for a news channel in the city, complains loudly about how he swears there’s someone magically sabotaging the weather. “Things have just been wild in terms of weather. Blizzard after blizzard. The ice drifts on the lake? They’re damn near giant icebergs out there. The weather changes on a dime, huge winter storms springing up out of nothing. It’s worse than usual this winter. I’ve put in a request to His Royal Highness Johnny’s people to look into it, but all I keep getting is his apprentices. I’ve heard rumors that his powers are actually waning, and he knows his New Year protection spell didn’t take as it should’ve, so he’s in hiding.”
“You’re ridiculous!” Your friend says, swatting the warlock’s arm. “The weather here always sucks. It doesn’t mean anyone’s cursed is. And maybe Johnny is busy. I’ve heard rumors that the city police have recruited him to track down a serial killer.”
You know Kun would be sitting here denying every accusation against his idol, but he’s gone right now, flown home to China for a few weeks. You’re watching his apartment, which couldn’t have happened at a better time since it was just when your lease on your place expired.
When the end of Witching and Wining night comes, you bid your friends a goodnight, bundle yourself into your coat, and you step out into the night.
This part of the city has a high magical population, which is exactly why Kun moved here, and you’re grateful for that right now as you’ve only got a fifteen minute walk back to his place instead of a ten minute walk to the train station, the lengthy train ride, and then a thirteen minute walk from there to your old place. And tonight the air is bitterly cold, thick clouds fill the sky, the ugly gray that tells you they hold either rain or snow, and given how cold it is, you can sense another blizzard coming on.
You rub your hands together, trying to keep the blood flowing to your fingertips before you remember that you’re a witch now. You dig your wand out of your coat pocket, and with the quartz tip, you draw a symbol in each of your palms. You slip your wand back into your pocket, feeling the symbols tingling on your hands, and you bring your cupped palms up to your lips as you whisper the words of the warming spell that matches the symbols. A small flame appears, shielded in your hands from the breeze. You hunch your shoulders against the wind, wishing you’d worn a hat and scarf tonight, but when you’d left earlier in the evening, it had been a mild 50°F, which is a rather decent temperature.
As you walk, snow begins to fall and the wind grows stronger and stronger until you step around a corner, and the wind buffets you backwards. Your shoulder crashes into the wall of the building, and you drop your warm little flame, helpless as it extinguishes itself on the ground.
You curse, wrapping your arms around yourself against the cold wind. Flurries hit your cheeks, and you’re already running through a list of warming, defrosting, and drying spells for once you reach Kun’s apartment. The snow is melting into your shoes and down the collar of your coat.
You brace the corner again, bowing your head and shouldering into the wind, walking straight into it down the street. Just two more blocks before you’re there, but you feel like every step you take, the wind pushes you back two more. And it’s so cold, your nose and eyes are both watering, your teeth chatter, but you can’t think of a warming spell strong enough to work in this situation.
You’ve made it halfway along the block when you’re suddenly enveloped in a pocket of warmth, blessedly wind free.
Of course, without the resistance of the wind there, you suddenly fall forward onto the snowy sidewalk.
“Oh, sorry. I didn’t think about that happening, I was just trying to make your walk a little easier,” a masculine voice says above you.
Hands grip the back of your jacket, and suddenly you’re being lifted up, placed once more on your own two feet.
And you’re facing him. Johnny. The great warlock of Chicago.
He smiles. “This storm really came out of nowhere, huh?” He brushes a hand down your back, knocking off snow. “My apprentices told me that the meteorologists can’t make sense of it, and I’ve been away in Seoul on some warlock business, but, shit. I thought I’d take a look around, see what they were talking about. And this doesn’t look good.”
You’re just staring at him, perhaps a bit dumbly, but you can’t help it. He’s even more handsome at this distance — close enough that you can see each eyelash, the stubble on his chin, the bobbing of his Adam’s apple — and he’s talking to you like this is normal, like you know each other and he’s just catching up with you.
“I’m sorry,” he apologizes suddenly, taking a half step back. “I’m Johnny Suh, High Warlock of Chicago.” Johnny holds his hand out to you.
You slide your hand into his, savoring the heat of his palm against yours, the strength as he closes his fingers around your hand, the firmness of his handshake. Even more than that, you feel that embedded spark in your chest flare up when Johnny’s eyes light up and he grins when you tell him your name.
“It’s nice to meet you.” He releases your hand, and you’re loath to let go, but you reluctantly let your hand fall back to your side. “Although, I feel like we’ve seen each other before.”
“Oh my god,” slips out before you realize it, and as soon as you realize you actually said that aloud, you cover your mouth with your hand. “I’m sorry, Mr. Suh. I just… I’ve seen you once before, at the New Years Eve ceremony. We, like, made eye contact, so I didn’t imagine that you would recognize me.”
Johnny’s mouth twists with barely suppressed amusement. “I have a good memory for faces and names. I won’t forget yours now.”
Bitter wind cuts through the bubble Johnny’s created around you both, and you shiver. Johnny frowns, looking away from you to scan the street.
“There’s definitely something strange about this weather,” Johnny remarks. “I understand why the weathermen have sought my attention. Someone Is tampering with the typical weather patterns, there’s a signature in this storm. Definitely something magical to be able to cut through my ward.”
“It blew straight through my heating spell,” you confess, trying not to feel small beside Johnny.
A contemplative look crosses his face. “Where are you headed?” Johnny asks, still looking like he’s thinking deeply about something.
“I’m on my way home.” And you’re not looking forward to stepping back out into the cold.
As if Johnny can read your mind, his attention snaps to you, and he offers, “I can walk you the rest of the way there.” He offers you his arm, and he says, “I can keep you warm.”
Heat floods you at the double meaning behind his words, but you gratefully accept Johnny’s arm.
To your delight and fascination, Johnny flirts with you the next two blocks, his presence providing you with protection from the cold, the wind, and the snow. You know he’s got a reputation for being a great party boy, but you wonder if he’s a notorious playboy too, if he’s walking you home with the intention of bedding you tonight.
Not that you would object to that.
Johnny walks you up to the door of Kun’s apartment, his hands brushing your back, your arms, and he’s all smiles and charm. And when you reach the door, as you press your key into the lock, Johnny stands right behind you. He’s got one hand on the edge of the doorway, and when you twist around to look at him, he only grins and leans in.
Feeling bold, you grab the front of his shirt, and you drag him the rest of the way in.
Johnny pins you between his body and the door, his mouth ravishing yours. You place your hand on the back of his neck, twist your fingers through his long hair.
“Please come inside,” you murmur into the kiss. With your free hand, you fumble for the doorknob. “Just, um, just give me one second to dismantle my roommate’s protective enchantments.”
Johnny distractingly keeps kissing and touching whatever parts of you he can as you stand there, unraveling Kun’s protections on the apartment, until the last of them snaps away, leaving the path clear for you to drag Johnny inside.
You hope he doesn’t mind that this apartment is small and not totally tidy. It’s not a mess by any means, but you’ve been sleeping on the pull out sofa bed. And since you've moved out of your apartment, and this is your temporary place, your boxes are everywhere. You have an open box sitting halfway between the kitchen and the bathroom, piled high with laundry. And the sofa bed is unmade from when you’d flown out of it this morning, running late for work.
Johnny probably doesn’t even look around. As soon as you’ve shut the door behind you both, he starts to reel you in again, starts to pull you away from the door, but you press against his chest.
“Wait, I need to put them back together.” You won’t feel safe unless you’ve got all the enchantments up; it would be like leaving the door unlocked.
“I’ve got it.” Johnny waves his hand. You can see the thin silver and gold threads of magic lacing back together around the perimeter of the apartment, a few extra layers of protection that weren’t there before, all of them brighter and stronger than the ones that Kun had.
You’re still gazing at them in awe when Johnny cups your cheek, when he brushes his lips against yours once more, backing you through the living room. He waves his hand again, and a fire springs to life in the fireplace Kun never uses (probably because this is an old ass apartment building whose ancient chimneys shouldn’t be used anymore). Another flick of his fingers, and among the built-ins that line one wall of the room, the stereo system kicks on, softly playing music.
“Wait,” you murmur even as you’re sinking down onto the unmade sofa bed. “How are you doing all of this? Where’s your wand?”
Is he doing wandless magic? Casting without anything to channel his power?
Johnny grins, standing there above you. “Do you want to see my wand, angel?”
Fuck, does he think you meant that in a sexy way? Well, now that he’s said that, you do want to see his wand, but you also actually want to see his wand. Doesn’t he have one?’
When Johnny tucks his thumb into the waistband of his pants, you decide you can hold off on answers about his wandless magic until a later date. For now, you just want to see whatever he’ll show you.
“Can I see your wand, Johnny?” You perch on the edge of the sofa bed, legs spread enough that Johnny can stand between them. You tilt your head back, looking up at him. “You’re so powerful, I bet your wand has got to be huge.”
He smirks.
With a snap of his fingers, Johnny’s pants come undone – unbuttoned, unzipped, pulled down just enough that his large cock can spring out.
Maybe his wand truly is magical because one look at it, and all rationality flies from your head. You become single-minded, all thoughts other than desire are erased, just a single horny braincell bouncing around inside your mind.
You just want to worship his cock, to kiss and lick and touch and suck. You want to make him cum, to see him shooting from the tip. You wonder if even his cum holds a bit of his power, if tasting it will get you one step closer to being where he is.
He truly is sporting a huge dick. He’s long at probably seven inches, wide enough around that you know it won’t take much to get your jaw aching, and you might as well use both hands on him. And if you get the chance to take his cock inside you, you know it��s going to be such a stretch, that he’s going to hit so deep inside you, you’ll be feeling it for a week. But despite that – or maybe because of that – you want him even more.
“Go on, angel,” Johnny says, placing his hand on your head and nudging you forward. “You can touch.”
“I’ve never seen a wand like this,” you tease, lifting one hand to touch. You brush your fingertips along the underside of his cock. “I’m not so sure I know what to do with it, how to handle it.” You cast a look up at his face.
Johnny’s hungry gaze rests on your lips. “Should I show you, teach you?”
You nod. “Well, you’re the all-powerful High Warlock of the city, who better to show me how to handle a wand than you, sir?”
Johnny groans, “You’re gonna give me the biggest head, stroking my ego like that, angel.”
“Is your ego all that I’m supposed to stroke?” You again glide your fingers along his cock, from base to tip, swirling your finger around his tip once before you pull your hand back down to your lap. “Can you show me how to handle your wand, please?”
Johnny doesn’t say another word, just spits into his hand before reaching down to curl his hand around his cock. He strokes his hand along his length, and you watch from up close, your mouth watering with the need to have him buried down your throat. You won’t be able to take him all the way, not at first anyway, so you’re already planning how you’re going to use your hands on him too, jerking him off into your mouth while you suck at the tip, how it’ll feel to have him gushing over your tongue.
“Johnny,” you whimper involuntarily.
“Here, angel. You try.” His hand falls away, and you watch as his cock bobs, ready for more. His hands grab for both of yours, pulling your hands up so both of them are on his cock. “Come on, just like I was just doing. This wand works best if you use both hands.”
You swear Johnny shudders when you lean in and lick at the salty bead of precum at his slit, and then he definitely shivers when you curl one hand at the base of his cock, using the other to stroke up from there, and you suck the head of his cock into your mouth, tongue flicking at the slit. His hand slides to the back of your head, and when he applies gentle pressure, sinking your mouth around him, you just take it, still stroking at what you haven’t yet taken in your mouth.
“Good girl,” Johnny praises you. “A quick learner for sure.”
You pull back against his hand on the back of your head, just enough to be able to breathe, and then you’re back on him, sucking at the tip, tongue stroking just beneath the tip, your hands covering the rest. Salty blurts of precum stain the back of your tongue, but you love the taste, love the thrill of power you feel as Johnny moans and rakes his fingers through your hair. You chance a look up at him through your eyelashes, and Johnny has his head bowed to watch you, his hair hanging loose in front of his face.
Again, you pull off, bringing your left hand up to the tip while your right keeps stroking the shaft.
“Your cock is so big, Johnny. God, is there any part of you that’s not perfect?” You dip in to lick at the slit between your fingers. “I really want to work some magic with you, using your wand to make us both achieve something absolutely, truly spectacular.”
You shift against the bed, seeking friction for yourself because your pussy is throbbing, so wet that your panties are sticking to you.
Johnny strokes your hair. “I’m so glad I ran into you out there. Keep going, angel.” And then his fingers are braiding through your hair at the back of your head, pushing your mouth back down around his length, going and going until your lips meet your fingers at the base of his cock, and you’re gagging as Johnny’s tip pushes past your limit.
His hips rock, thrusting shallowly down your throat, just enough to trigger your gag reflex again.
Your eyes water, but you’re loving every second of this, giving his cock the perfect throat to fuck, you loosen your jaw and let Johnny use your throat, let him bruise your lips as he starts moving faster, and when he pulls you off with his fingers knotted in your hair, you’ve only got a few second to gasp in raw breaths before he’s bringing your lips back to his cock.
“I love it, Johnny. More!” You beg, brushing your lips down the length of him, along the sides. You bring one hand up to stroke your fingers along the opposite side as you run your lips and tongue along his cock. You draw back to the tip, flicking your tongue to gather the beads of precum on your tongue. “So good, Johnny. Your cock is just perfect.”
You scatter kisses over the sensitive flesh, trace a prominent vein with your tongue, you take just the tip between your lips, flicking your tongue beneath the tip in a way that has Johnny bucking forward just a little but no more even though both hands are buried in your hair.
You put your all into worshipping his handsome cock, his oh-so magical wand.
You just want his cum coating your tongue.
“Stop.” Johnny drags you off of him, casting you backwards so your shoulders hit the sofa bed’s thin mattress. He towers above you, cast in tangerine light by the fire flickering in the grate. He looks all-powerful and terrifying and so incredibly sexy right then.
“Do you want me, angel? Really, really want me?” Johnny asks, lowering himself over you, holding himself above you with his fists on either side of your shoulders.
“I told you already, I want to work some spectacular magic with you and your wand.” You reach for him, for his hair. Johnny’s eyes flash when your nails drag along his scalp. “In case the metaphor isn’t clear enough consent for you, sir, I want you to fuck me.”
That’s exactly what Johnny was waiting for.
He snaps his fingers, and you gasp when you realize that there’s a startling breeze over all your bare skin. Johnny vanished your clothes, and you now lie nude beneath him, who is also now nude, having vanished his own clothes as well.
“Can I show you a magic trick, angel? I think you’ll really like this one.” Johnny kneels up above you, his cock standing out between his legs, heavy and perfect.
“Show me, please,” you beg, squirming beneath him, needing to be touched.
Johnny grins, and he parts your thighs, reaching with one hand between them. His fingers are warm and just right when he touches you, stroking over your clit to draw a whimper from you, then down to your pussy.
“Fuck, Johnny. Magical fingers as well as your cock.” Your hand flies to his wrist, feeling the flexing tendons as he fucks two fingers inside you.
“Oh, this isn’t the trick, my dear.” Johnny grinds his palm against your clit, fingers as deep as he can get them, stroking over that sweet spot inside you. It’s amazing how he keeps such an even pace considering that he’s wrapped his other hand around his cock, jerking himself off while he touches you. You know you’ve got to be leaking around his fingers, so wet for him as you watch his hand on his cock.
He keeps going, fingering you while he touches himself, and you can feel the swirling tension in your belly, the tight curl of pleasure growing and growing until finally it bursts, sparking through your body as you climax around his fingers. Johnny doesn’t stop.
“That’s right, angel. Cum for me.” His fingers curl inside you, and stars spin above you as you try to focus on Johnny’s face. “Show me that you can handle this before I give you the real magic.”
You arch off the bed, reaching the ultimate peak of your climax. Your chest heaves with each breath, and Johnny pulls his hand away from between your thighs, bringing it down to his cock.
“Ready for the big event, angel?” Johnny asks. “The main magic trick of the evening?”
You nod, biting at your bottom lip while you watch him.
“See this?” He asks, signaling to you that he means his cock. “I’m going to make it disappear, and you’re going to help me with that.”
If you weren’t so turned on, that line might have made you laugh, but as it is, you’re incredibly turned on despite that orgasm just moments ago, you’re desperate to have him inside you.
“Show me, Johnny.” You need it.
Johnny presses into you slowly, as if he’s aware that he’s huge and you’re very sensitive after that orgasm. Or, maybe he’s just really wanting to watch the way that his cock disappears as he sinks into you, your pussy greedily swallowing him.
You cry out when Johnny’s patience breaks, and he thrusts in the last bit. He’s so fucking deep, and it feels so damn good. You never could’ve imagined how this would feel, not with him; it’s truly magical. Every inch of you is tingling like he’s spelled you to be extra sensitive to his touch – his cock inside you, the knock of his legs against yours, his chest brushing your tits, the soft way his lips trace your jaw and lips, his hair tickling your cheeks – and it’s driving you insane.
You move with Johnny, twisted together, bodies connecting again and again, his cock driving into you while you moan his name and spout praises about his cock. You’re not even sure what all you’re saying, only that it’s working on Johnny, pushing him to thrust harder, causing him to laugh at one point when he drops his mouth to a sensitive spot high on your throat beneath your ear.
Johnny brings you to orgasm again on his cock, and you’re elevated above Cloud Nine, soaring high on an endless wave of pleasure while Johnny keeps rolling his hips forward, pressing into you again and again.
“Come on Johnny, you too. Cum for me,” you beg, dragging your nails over his shoulders and down his chest.
“Shit!” He hisses when your nails pass over his nipples, his cock throbbing inside you. “Almost there.”
So, you flick your fingernails over his nipples again, curious if that’ll do the trick.
Johnny pulls out, jolting up towards your face. His hand is in your hair, but you’re already moving too, lifting your head and opening your mouth to take in his cock once more.
Your left hand flies to Johnny’s shaft, your lips wrap around the head, and immediately he cums.
His semen floods across your tongue, and you swear you taste power in it as you swallow down everything he gives you. You bob your head, sucking at the tip, stroking his shaft with your hand, taking everything Johnny has to offer.
When he’s gone soft on your tongue, you pull off with a pop, sinking back down onto the sofa bed. Johnny slumps down beside you, draping an arm and a leg over you, and he’s still got one hand tangled in your hair.
“That was amazing,” Johnny sighs. “I haven’t had sex like that in a long time. Mind-blowing.”
A rush of satisfaction at the praise settles in your bones. “And to think, I was just genuinely asking you about your actual wand. But I suppose you do wandless magic?”
Johnny’s eyes are closed, but he smiles. “Yeah. I do have a wand, though, somewhere in my apartment, but my magic outgrew the wand like a decade ago. If you really want to see it, I can show you sometime.”
You twist around to lie on your side facing him. “Do you mean it?”
Johnny hums in confirmation. “Sure. When I’m back to feeling like I’m on this plane of existence, I’ll give you my number. You’ll have to come over sometime so I can fuck you in a real bed. What even is this?”
You push at his shoulder. “I should’ve known the High Warlock would be snobby about where he has sex. This is a sofa bed, Mr. Suh. I’m just staying here in my friend’s apartment temporarily while I’m between places and while he’s out of town.”
Johnny purses his lips and peeks at you. “Like I said, I’ll give you my number, and you can come sleep in a real bed with me, or else the closest you'll get to having me in this bed again will be phone sex while you’re lying in this.”
But despite all his talk of hating your sofa bed, Johnny the High Warlock of Chicago doesn’t budge from your bed that night or until late the following morning, by which point the city is shut down by the record-breaking snowfall from the late-March blizzard that blew through in the night, and oh-so-unfortunately you and Johnny are trapped together in the apartment with nothing to occupy your time but magic tricks and his magical dick.
a/n: day 3 is done although it took me longer than I thought it would, and I feel like I kinda left part of it unfinished, but who knows maybe a sequel will be in the works later!
