I think something that should be part of Simblr etiquette is not asking people if they can put up their OCs/Legacy/Founder sims for download. It’s just like….why would you even ask me to put a sim up for download that I am playing with/created with a backstory & post edits of? Like come onnnnnn 😭 also, y’all need to learn how to read people’s FAQ I have all my main links pinned on my pinned post for a reason
I share sims when I feel like it so do not ask me if I can put xyz up for download

I don’t really know, there are so many things haha

Coffee Shop AU
It’s still...brewing, but here’s a start.
Teach my Feet to Fly; chapter 1:
Hilltop Brew is the only place in Barrington where Aaron can go and not be assaulted by memories of Eric. They’d only gone together once since it re-opened although Eric had brought Gracie there alone several times.
It had been one of the last truly warm days of summer and Eric was sitting outside with Gracie’s carrier on the table across from him. That day Aaron only had a few minutes in between classes to sit with his husband and their new daughter, hardly enough time to justify the walk over to Hilltop Brew from campus but he would take what he could get. Aaron had been a father for five months and now that the worst of the sleep deprivation was past he was only just beginning to discover how much he liked it.
“Sexy Jesus isn’t working today,” Eric lamented after Aaron kissed him hello, “Neither is Sexy Asian Guy. His wife is, though. She’s called Maggie, she and her husband— who I’m going to have to start calling Sexy Korean Guy or just Glenn— are the new owners. She’s nice, I like her. They’ve got a baby Grace’s age.”
“Are they your new best friends?” Aaron asked with a smile. Eric could’t walk down the street without making at least two new friends; every time they go on vacation Eric amasses a collection of email addresses and Facebook names and phone numbers after sitting next to strangers on a plane for five hours or waiting in line to enter a museum for five minutes.
“Not yet,” Eric said with a grin, “Give me a month or two.”
Three weeks later Eric was dead.
The day it happened was Aaron’s day to stay home with Gracie and Eric’s day to work. He had a twelve-hour shift at Barrington Medical; his days were busy so Aaron was surprised when he got a call from Eric’s cell an hour after he left.
“Hey Babe,” Aaron said, “Forget something?”
“Aaron?” a female voice he didn’t recognize at first said.
“I…yes. Tara? Is that you?”
“Sorry, my phone didn’t have your number for some reason,” her voice was thick and teary, “You need to come here as quick as you can. Something’s happened to Eric.”
What happened to Eric was dropping dead while administering his first patient of the day’s IV. He’d laid there dead on the floor for several minutes while the elderly woman frantically pressed the call button and called for more nurses to come. Sudden cardiac arrest; the autopsy later will reveal he had something called Brugada Syndrome and it could have killed him at any time. Eric was luckier than most that it happened while he is in the RICU of an advanced research hospital.
It wasn’t enough.
The doctors and nurses were able to get Eric’s heart started again after twelve minutes and thirty-five seconds but he was declared brain dead before Aaron even reached the hospital with Gracie in tow.
The machines kept his heart beating long enough for Eric’s family to come and say goodbye. His mother lives twenty minutes away from them, his oldest sister had to fly in from Arizona and didn’t arrive until the following morning. It was the worst eighteen hours or so of Aaron’s life; he’d been married to a RN long enough to know that Eric was dead even though his heart was still beating with the aid of machines. What was in the hospital bed was a husk of meat, everything that made Eric Eric was gone as soon as he hit the floor. Aaron still couldn’t leave his side for more than a minute. Once Robin arrived at the hospital and had time to kiss her baby brother’s forehead and weep Aaron was able to mechanically sign the paperwork that would terminate Eric’s life support.
Aaron has not always gotten along with his mother-in-law even though in the two years since they’d announced they were planning to have a baby relations have improved significantly. Particularly after Grace’s birth; Eric would joke that they should have done this years ago. Aaron was still worried Leigh would want to keep Eric on life support because of God’s will and miracles are possible. To Aaron’s surprise she was the one to squeeze his hand and tell him everything would be ok when he was unable for several minutes to scrawl out his signature on the final form.
**********
In previous years at this time there would be Christmas Cards addressed to them both but months after the funeral all Aaron finds in his mailbox are sympathy cards. To his surprise today’s is from Lydia. In addition to the card is a letter apologizing for not calling to thank Eric for the photos he sent to her a right before he died and both of them for taking Gracie. There is an unspoken and barely concealed fear in that letter. They’d had opted for an open adoption where the birth mother could have some relationship with the child if she chose. So far Lydia has not chosen to have much of a relationship with Grace and from what Aaron knows about her life and the circumstances of his daughter’s conception he does not blame even if he wishes things were different. Maybe one day if Lydia’s life continues to improve they will be, or at least he hopes so.
Aaron struggles to write a response that will assure her he will still be able to take care of Grace on his own. That even before Eric’s death the idea of giving her up was unfathomable to him and now he honestly thinks it would kill him. He needs to get out of the house after that. Needs to go somewhere that isn’t full of memories and ghosts. He gets dressed, loads Gracie in her car seat, and heads out with no real idea of where he is going. He drifts through town, eyes searching for somewhere, anywhere he can go and just sit with Grace without looking up expecting to see Eric. That is everywhere in this town, and Aaron is on the verge of just heading outside of city limits when he passes Hilltop Brew.
The outside tables have been taken in for the winter, and cheerful Christmas scenes are painted in the shop windows in acrylic. It’s after finals and like most areas downtown Hilltop Brew is deserted, but the little neon sign over the door read ‘open’. Aaron parks his car across the street and heads inside.
He takes a moment to look around. When he and Eric first moved to Barrington two years ago Hilltop— despite its close proximity to both campus and downtown— was closed. Michonne told him that it used to be a great place back when she was an undergrad but had gone downhill in recent years. Something to do with the owner, some kind of financial mismanagement or something, Michonne didn’t know the details. Right after Grace was born Hilltop Brew reopened with a sign that read “UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT!” out front for the first month.
It’s cozy inside of Hilltop, the ceiling is low and the lighting is subdued and warm. Old-fashioned Christmas lights are strung along the walls and exposed piping of the ceiling. One side of the room has a row of tables with mismatched chairs, the other is dominated by an enormous couch and plush chairs arranged around a TV that looks at least forty years old that has been converted into a fish tank. The wall decor is an eclectic mishmash of hipster art, broken records tacked up in a loose pattern, and framed pages of books.
The shop is completely empty, no one is behind the counter and Aaron thinks for a moment it’s actually closed after all. Then he sees a flicker of movement from the open door leading back into the stockroom and he heads toward the counter. The barista emerges just as Aaron reaches the register.
“Hi, what can I get started for you?” the barista asks. He’s a stupidly handsome man with arresting gray eyes and a generous mouth stretched into a crooked smile. His long hair is pulled back into a neat bun and he has an equally neat beard. Aaron realizes immediately that this must be Sexy Jesus, and he automatically thinks that he’ll have to tell Eric he finally saw the guy.
This when Aaron realizes that thinking he could escape Eric’s ghost is impossible, even here. He opens his mouth to say never mind, he’s leaving but all that comes out is a shattered sob. His face and eyes are hot and to his horror tears are spilling down his cheeks. He covers his face with his free hand and starts bawling.
He hears Sexy Jesus say, “Whoah, holy shit.”
In her carrier Gracie starts to cry too, and Aaron knows he needs to get out of here, needs to get control of himself and calm her down, knows that he must look like a fucking lunatic standing there sobbing.
There’s a hand on his arm, Jesus has come around the counter and is asking him if he’s ok and before Aaron knows it he’s clinging to the guy for dear life and crying. Jesus’ arms go around him, he’s shorter than Aaron by about half a foot but he’s strong and holds him up effortlessly.
“Sorry,” Aaron chokes out when he starts to think he’s got himself under control a little. Jesus just rubs his back soothingly and tells him it’s ok, don’t worry about it, which sets Aaron off again. Gracie is really screaming now, and Aaron knows he needs to get it together. He’s dimly aware of Jesus gently guiding him to one of the overstuffed chairs. Aaron collapses into it, buries his face in his hands, and continues weeping. An unknown amount of time later Jesus is pressing a box of tissues into his hands and asking Aaron if he has a diaper bag.
He doesn’t. He walked out of the house without one, what the fuck was he thinking?
“Shit, ok. Here, I promise I’m not kidnapping her, ok?” Jesus says as he lifts Gracie out of the carrier, rocking her with practiced ease. He puts a hand on Aaron’s shoulder and says, “Let it all out, friend. I’ll be right back.” With that he’s whisking Aaron’s daughter back behind the counter through the stockroom door.
Parental instinct kicks in then enough for Aaron to stumble to his feet and follow him, promises of not kidnapping her notwithstanding. He has a truly nasty start when he finds the stockroom empty and a backdoor into the alleyway wide open. He can still hear Grace crying, and when he steps into the alley he sees there is a staircase leading up to what looks like an apartment on the second floor of the building. He sees Jesus at the top of the stairs with Grace in his arms, the door is open and a pretty woman holding a baby of her own is standing in the doorway. She looks down and sees Aaron standing there looking lost and says, “Fuck’s sake Jesus, close the shop for a minute and bring him up here.”

(Y/N)’s Big Day (Billy Hargrove x Reader) Part One
Pairing: Billy Hargrove x (Female) Reader
Summary: Today is (Y/N) and Nathan’s big day. However, Billy shows up to ruin the fun. He wants to admit his feelings once and for all before his person gets hitched to some rich, snot nose, pretty boy. (Billy’s description not mine). If things don’t go as planned will Billy, Steve, Tommy H. and their irrelevant friend Chris have to sabotage it??? I THINK SOOOOO.

February 21st, 1989
A few hours from now, you would either be the happiest person on the face of the earth, or you’ll be in a home for the abnormally gifted (a nut house for crazy people) by the amount of anxiety. It was 7:30 AM. You had arrived to the church 48 minutes ago, filled with excitement and happily anticipating the impending marriage to Nathan Hurley.
“That is the third time Steve has run by the doorway in the last twenty minutes. What is he doing? He should be in here, standing still and keeping me from freaking out!” You hissed. Meredith let out a chuckle, crossing her left leg over her right as she sat on the arm of one of the couches.
“Just breathe, (Y/N). You look amazing!” She smiled.
Just breathe. Jeez, Mer, I never thought of that, you thought. You stood in front of the mirror, smoothing out the few wrinkles that were still in your dress.
Overall you were pleased, to say the least at the dress you had picked out. It was a frigid day in 1989, when you walked into the department store downtown to buy a wedding dress. It was immediately clear that you had a problem. All the gowns on display were designed for summer, made of light material, like organdy and dotted Swiss. You were getting married in a month and you needed something heavy and seasonal—and you needed it now. Finally, a frustrated saleswoman pointed you towards the sale rack, in other words, toward the reject winter wedding dresses that did not sell the year before. You called it sheer luck. You had found exactly what you were looking for. It was an ivory satin and Chantilly lace, with a six-foot train—at an incredible bargain price of only $800. You let out a small sigh, glancing up at your hair that had been put up in loose curls, soon looking over your face, and the decent amount of make-up you had plastered on it.
Exactly 15 seconds ago, Carol took both your hands and congratulated you on planning the perfect wedding. She asked how you were doing and part of you wanted to go berserk and bounce. But, you couldn’t lose your cool. So, what do you tell the young woman you chose as your “maid of honor” and “best friend” as she stood before you, smiling sheepishly, while all your dreams of a peaceful and simple marriage ceremony mutate into something you would wish on anyone else, but you? You only shrugged. You weren’t sure what the hell you were doing anymore.
“Look, (Y/N), It’s okay to be nervous. But nothing can go wrong. All you have to do, is go out there, get married, and I will do the rest, okay?” She gave you a reassuring smile, you giving her one in return as you nodded your head.
You were so focused on Carol trying to calm your nerves, you barely listened to the door opening.
“Billy!” a flustered Carol yelled as other bridesmaids in the room gasped. Billy stopped half way through the threshold; eyes automatically locked on your figure. You peered over Carol’s shoulder with growing fear in your eyes, watching as a small genuine smile grew on the man’s face. You still looked the same, even though it had been 5 years since he’d last seen you. He smiled as another old friend, Carol walked over to Billy, “Get out!” She demanded.
Billy cleared his throat, apologizing for staring a little too long. “Well, this isn’t the bathroom.” Carol rolled her eyes; scoffing as she pushed him out of the room. “Get out! Get out!” He quickly threw his hands up in defense, walking backwards to exit. But, not before getting one more glimpse of you, before she slammed the door behind him.
+ + +
Billy had run all over kingdom come when he had finally found Tommy and Chris; who were standing by a table in the reception hall, talking while nursing a glass of champagne.
“Guys, guys, shut up and listen to me-it’s (Y/N). She doesn’t want to get married.” The two men gave Billy wide eyed looks before responding.
“Damn.”
“What happened?”
Billy walked over to the two men, “Well…” He stammered and then pushed the rest out in a gush. “Her exact words were: “I don’t want to marry Nathan, but my entire family is here and I can’t back out now. Please, Billy as my best friend, help me.”
Tommy flicked his brows up, “What’d Carol say?” Billy shook his head, “Well, Carol didn’t hear it-(Y/N) told me with her eyes.”
Both, Tommy and Chris took a minute to think about what their friend had just told them. Concluding that all of this information was bullshit.
“Okay, so nothing happened then.” Tommy shrugged. Followed by Chris saying, “Cool, so she’s marrying Nate.”
Billy stuffed his hands into the pockets as he scowled over his shoulder, “No, guys, I know (Y/N)-I know her looks, okay? She doesn’t want to do this.”
“Billy, why the hell were you back there!?” Carol lunged forward, gripping the man tightly by the shoulder to spin him around. “I need to know, Hargrove.” She gripped him even more firmly and stared at him hard in the eye.
“(Y/N)’s backing out of the wedding.” Carol’s eyes widened, “What?”
“It’s true. She told me.”
“With her eyes.” Tommy pointed out. Carol snorted before taking her hand off Billy’s shoulder. “Oh, my god. I thought you were talking about something real. Billy! The weddings happening-let her go, pea brain.”
“Look, Carol, I’m telling you this as (Y/N)’s best friend and nothing more.” Carol shook her head, “Billy, your wrong. (Y/N) loves Nathan-I know that because I know her better than you do. Plus, if you were her best friend, you would’ve stayed. God, you are so selfish. Why can’t you just be happy for her?”
“Your wrong!” Billy yelled but then lowered his voice – “Your wrong, I am happy for her. If this was what she wanted, I would leave this wedding alone-but it’s not, so i cant.”
“Hargrove, listen up and listen good. You are not to talk to (Y/N), you are not to look (Y/N), and you are not to have eye conversations with her. Or I will bust you. Hard.” Carol sneered. With one flick of her hair, the girl was gone.
Billy ran his fingers through his cut curls, letting out a groan. Tommy furrowed a brow, pressing on with the conversation once his girlfriend had left.
“Well, what are you gonna do?” Billy dropped his hands to his sides; letting out a deflating sigh. Nodding, he pursed his lips together, “I’m gonna tell her… and if that shit doesn’t go over smoothly between the two of us-Max told me Harrington doesn’t like the jackass, so maybe we can stop this whole shit wedding from happening. We all know she’s too good for him. She deserves better.”
“Okay, hold up,” Chris began, gulping down the rest of his champagne,” let’s say you do tell (Y/N) how you feel, and she feels the same way, then what?”
“What do you think? I’m gonna grab my girl, get the hell out of this shit hole and were gonna settle back in California.”
“What about Mindy?” Tommy asked. Billy closed his eyes and took a deep breath, “She’s not (Y/N), Tommy.”
“Alright, man I get it,” Tommy nodded, beginning to chuckle, “but, if by any means, you and Harrington try and sabotage this wedding because all this shit between the two of you doesn’t go as planned-I want in.”
Chris nodded in agreement, “Yeah, fuck it, me too.”
Billy glanced between the two, giving them both a mischievous grin as he walked away to tell you he loved you.
+ + +
You hiked up the massive skirt on your dress and tiptoed to the doorway, glancing out into the hall. Your mom was huddled at the door with Tyler, the best man. Guests and parents were seated in pews. The lilies and orange blossoms filled the building. You looked to the front of the church only to see Nathan. Even though you two had agreed not to see each other before the ceremony, you couldn’t help but stare. He was wringing his hands and his eyes were searching everywhere but in the direction of the aisle you would be walking down. Everything was as you dreamed, well – almost.
Your eyes kept searching for Billy though. It was a lot harder to spot him now without that damn mullet. Where is he? Maybe Nate is nervous because of Billy? Why is he here in the first place, Max probably told him? Maybe Tommy? These things played out in the back of your mind like a broken record.
You didn’t know, but even though you didn’t see Billy-he saw you. He pushed through the crowd, edging his way toward you. You never noticed him as he fished his way through the jovial gathering. Billy felt as if he were floating as he closed the gap between you and himself. Grabbing you by the wrist, he pulled you aside.
“Billy,” you breathed. Your shock was quickly replaced with bemusement.
“What the hell are you doing here,” you asked. Billy frowned and grabbed you by the elbow, leading you back into the room, quickly shutting the door.
“No, (Y/N). What the hell are you doing here?” Your mind was reeling as you stared up at him with disbelief. You had avoided all his calls for months-years even, and you had intended to keep it that way. Any attempt that he would try to make and weasel his way back in was easily ignored. It was your wedding. Every excuse you could muster to avoid him was utilized.
“What do you mean?” Your voice was smaller than you had intended. You wanted to yell at him, but perhaps you were too stunned. He had decided to corner you 20 minutes before the ceremony to let you know. You stared at him, trying to work up the anger to smack him, but the look in his eyes quelled your rage. He took your hand into his own, and you inhaled a deep breath. The touch was unwarranted, and its effect unwanted.
“I love you,” he said simply. Your eyes met his, and his somber expression bore through your soul. “You left me,” you reminded him, tugging your hand back. Sanity returned as the feeling faded from your body, and your resolve hardened. “It’s been 5 years, Billy. Are you crazy? You wait until now to tell me you love me?”
“I’ve been trying to tell you ever since I got to California! You’ve been blowing me off ever since,” he accused, his brow furrowed. “This was the only way I could get your attention for more than ten seconds.” You bit your lower lip, glaring up at him. “Okay, Billy. You want my attention? You have it. I’ll give you twenty seconds to tell me how you’re going to fix this!” You spat, glad to see your temper had finally decided to join the conversation. He glared back at you though. “I’m done trying to talk to you!” he exclaimed, stepping uncomfortably close.
Your eyes widened, and you threw my hands up in protest immediately. It was too late though. He held you close, and you were always helpless against his lips. The excitement tearing through your body almost took over, but you managed to push against his chest in protest. When he didn’t budge, his lips settled in place and defeat consumed you. Your heart was pounding faster than it had in years, and as much as you wanted to deny it, the charge between the two of you was always tangible. You found yourself opening your mouth to him, and it only took a second before he eagerly accepted the invitation. Your mind was screaming for you to stop this, but the electricity flowing through couldn’t be ignored as you kissed him back. When he finally pulled back, you were stunned. Disappointed, even. His eyes were dancing victoriously as they met yours, and you had no words to offer him. You were paralyzed under his gaze after the heated moment, just like how the two of you were back in high school.
“Don’t marry him,” he whispered, his eyes pleading as they met yours, “I always have loved you. You can’t marry that asshole and if you do, I can’t watch. You deserve better. Marry me, (Y/N). I know you want too.”
