OC smash or pass game!
Thank you @miseryscrowned for the tag!
Meet Riana Ka'Lindri, my oldest DnD OC. And by far one of most detailed ones...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
She's been to one base game (Neverwinter Nights) and two DLCs, and in each found a new girfriend. Just couldn't make up her mind! finally settled herself for a while with a hot tiefling merchant lady from the last DLC... But well she had some one-night stands. Had a soft spot for red-haired tieflings, but only after meeting and leaving that merchant, before they could reunite)
Thinks herself noble and good, but her found family includes some rogues and an ex-pirate.
Probably has mommy issues (she didn't know her mother well, was raised more by the community).
Can seem naive and idealistic.
Drow with traits of a stereotypical light elf. Even plays harp really well. Yet doesn't shoot arrows because...
Devoted Elistraee worshiper. Grew up in a forest Eilestraeean community (therefore bastard sword all the way. Imagine a petite girl who can swing a bastard sword rather skillfully!)
Nickname "violet". That's how I often call her myself because well she's such a violet, it suits her!

Endless Summer || j.jk
Tumblr media
~ Pairing: jock!Jungkook x nerd!reader
~ Genre: academic rivals to lovers , fluff, angst, smut, college au, slowburn
~ Summary: Summer vacation was right around the corner. Being in a program that required you at the beach every day was a big pro. After seeing Jeon Jungkook at the same beach as you everything was ruined. Jungkook was the school’s heartthrob. Girls throwing themselves at him left and right, going to parties every other day, and coming in and out of those parties with different girls. Not to mention he’s the biggest dick you’ve ever met. Avoiding him was in your best interest. His being there threw avoiding him out the window. Summer can’t be that bad. Right?
~ word count: 13.4k
~ Warnings: golden era!jk (yes this is a warning) oral (m & f receiving), doggy, dom!jk, sub!reader, dirty talk, unprotected sex (be smart), aftercare, so much fluff!
~ A/n: God, this is my first time writing ever!! I really hope this finds the right audience and readers please enjoy. i pray this doesn’t come off as a boring story pls pls show some support, it’d be soooo appreciated 🫶🏼🫶🏼! Happy reading!
~
For the past thirty minutes you sat staring at your suitcase still trying to figure out what the hell to pack for the next months. The program that you joined had asked everyone if they wanted to go on a trip for extra credit to work for the beach down by Busan for junior year. Not that you needed it, you had zero plans made for this summer.
Niki’s out of town visiting her family for the summer and Sohee’s out doing what Sohee does, probably out exploring abandoned places or getting high somewhere. Who knows? You decided to get up and start packing. You walked over to your closet to skim over your outfits and carefully picked out a few outfits for the next few months. After two hours of packing, your phone dings with a notification from Niki
Niki: omg can’t believe it’s summer already! have fun on your little trip down to Busan. If anything happens call or text me right away! Luv ya!
You smile down at your phone. You and Niki have been friends for years, you first met in your freshman year of high school. She taught you everything, from how to do your make-up and style your clothes and all that fun stuff. Funny how you both got into the same college and ended up sharing the same dorm. She’s gone around the campus having different guys in and out. You would say you guys are complete opposites. You would rather stay in and watch a movie or something instead of going out and partying with drunk college students and grinding my body against sweaty skin.
After finishing up the last of your packing you respond.
Me: heyyy, omg I know! The school year went by so fast, say hi to your mom n dad for me and give Nani kisses for me! And of course, you’ll always be the first to know everything! Luv u too! Enjoy your summer ♡
Putting your phone down, you check when you are supposed to leave and meet everyone at the train station. The ticket said 8:00 am. You set your alarm for tomorrow and get ready for bed. Checking your phone for the last time you turn the lights off and drift off to dreamland.
~
Waking up to your alarm clock blaring in your ear. It’s near 6:00 am, you get up and start getting ready. Walking into the bathroom you bring out your skin care routine. After finishing up and brushing your teeth, you go back to where your vanity is and start with your makeup.
Choosing what to wear was easy, you chose a simple outfit. An oversized black hoodie, black parachute cargos, and white gamma forces. You come out of your room to the living room and take your bag off the counter and get the rest of the bags for the trip. The drive to the train station took longer than expected. Traffic was horrible. The ride was said to be only about 30 minutes, you ended up getting there about an hour later.
After blasting music on the way there you had finally arrived, you see a few of your classmates from previous classes and walk up to say hi. “Yunjin!” You shouted her name, catching her attention.
She waves at you and starts making her way over. “Oh my god hey girl!” She goes in for a hug and starts talking about the next two months. “This is so exciting! I’ve been waiting for this trip for so long, I hope we get free time because I’m too exhausted from all those tests.” She says with low shoulders. Out of nowhere she gasps and turns to you “You’ll never fucking guess who I just saw” You look at her with a curious face “Who?” she leans in closer “Jeon Jungkook”. Your face had gone red. Hearing Jungkook’s name coming out of her mouth left you shocked. Not forgetting the history, you and the boy had.
It all started in junior high in the 7th grade. You had finished your final tests of the year, and the scores were finally out for everyone to see. As you walked up to the board, expecting to read your name first as it always is on top of the board. Standing behind a tall boy with dark raven hair you moved to the side to peek at the score you had got.
Before you could even take a glance at the highest score the boy yells close to your ear. He jumps in the air and says “LETS FUCKING GO” he turns around and notices you, he looks you in the eye before walking away. You go up to the board and look for your name. Right above your name is Jeon Jungkook.
You couldn’t believe your eyes that he out of all people managed to score above you. You glare at him and say “Hey! Did you cheat?! There’s no way you have the highest score after me when you couldn’t even place last year!” He scoffs at you and looks at you with narrowed eyes “I’ve earned that spot being last doesn’t feel good right? Stop being such a conceited bitch and learn how to share the board. Accept you're not the smartest in the school” he snares and walks away. You had felt a surge of anger towards that day and couldn’t stand to be around him for the rest of your life. You promised yourself to avoid any contact with Jeon Jungkook and to make sure he never topped you again.
After staring at him for atleast five minutes you snap out of your thoughts. Looking over at Yunjin you say “What is he doing here? I’ve never seen him attend any of the meetings or give any interest in the program” she looks back at you after looking at him “Yeah, he and Yuno are close friends. I guess he brought it up to him and took it upon himself to ask Jungkook to the trip” she shrugs. You glance over at him again and see him talking to Yuno. You never noticed his pretty features. You hadn't seen him since you bumped into him at the café all those months ago. His hair got longer, he has more piercings, and a lot more tattoos on his right arm. Has he always looked this good?
No, thinking like this is wrong. You needed to remember all the cruel names he called you. You decided to look away after hearing the announcements on the speaker. “Train number 7 now boarding.” is heard. Going to grab your things a hand is placed on top of one of yours. You look up and you're met with those same eyes that looked at you with hate.
“You need help with that?” he smiles at you “No thanks I got it”. You quickly take the bag from his hand and board the train. Luckily, you had moved quickly enough so you could get a shared booth with Yunjin. You place your bags in the overhead compartment and get settled. It would take you about 3 hours to get there. Now settled in your seat you lay back with your head resting on the head rest and blast your music. Just as you became relaxed you felt your hoodie become wet with liquid.
“Oh shit, my bad” he says
You look up at the voice. Of course, it’s him. Jungkook looks up at you and rolls his eyes.
“Nice going dumbass” you say under your breath.
Yunjin grabs tissue from her purse to help and says “God, what the hell is his problem? He really had the audacity to walk away and not even apologies.” she said.
After heading to the washroom and putting on an extra T-shirt you had in your bag you walk back to your seat but not before you look up to see Jungkook, watching as you walk past him, you turn your head forward and sit back into your seat. This is going to be a long ride.
~
Arriving at the dorms was a hassle. Taking everyone's stuff off the train was a breeze but sorting everybody into two buses was more difficult than it should have been. Surprisingly enough you and Yunjin ended up sharing a bigger dorm with two other girls, Irene and Jini. You and Irene shared the same economics class and Jini had recently signed up for this program.
You walked around the building and noticed a pool and a hot tub placed in the back. The kitchen area was big enough for atleast fifteen people. Walking back to the common area, everyone went their own ways into their rooms and decided to meet up around one for lunch. After opening the door to your home for the next two months, you were met with the most beautiful window view. Looking out to the beach you could see the waves crashing against the shore and people enjoying their time with their families and loved ones.
After taking in the view, you walked over to your bag to pick an outfit out for lunch. You lift up one of the outfits you had picked out while packing. Touching up your makeup and getting your shoes on, you all leave to head down to meet everyone in the common area. As you walked out of your dorm, you were (yet again) met with the sight of Jungkook as you looked at each other. His dorm is right across from yours. Great! You had thought, this summer couldn’t get any worse. He looks at you up and down, smirks and walks away.
~
You walk down the stairs to see a few people waiting. As you were waiting, you met up with Irene and Jini, Yunjin was still getting ready as were a few other people. Looking around the room you catch Jungkook taking a glimpse of you with his hands in his pockets. He wore a fitted T-shirt with his arm full of tattoos on display along with cargo pants. You make eye contact with him for several seconds before looking away to find Yunjin.
Finally, everyone in count went into separate cars and explored what the city had in store for them. Busan was a big city; there was so much to do. An option you had was to look around for places you could eat at while you spent your time there. You decided to walk around and look at the stores. A small old lady had her hand out waving you over to her stand. “I have a beautiful bracelet that has your name written all over it,” she said.
“It’s really pretty but I'm not looking to buy anything right now” you kindly declined her offer
“Please have it for free, it compliments you so well” she raises her hand with the bracelet
It was decorated in white shells and blue starfish charms. You took the bracelet from her hand, and you thanked her. Finished figuring out where to settle you chose a restaurant that wasn’t far from where the car was parked.
Finding a table wasn’t difficult. The place wasn’t packed besides a few of the other students that chose the same spot were empty. The empty space was filled with the noise of the bell at the top of the door, you look up to see where the noise had come from and that’s when you see Jungkook. He stood there with Yuno and the rest of his other friends. He goes to sit at a table near yours.
You made eye contact, and he scoffed. You roll your eyes at him, and he speaks up
“Are you following me or something? You seem to be everywhere I am.”
You glare at him “Are you sure it's not the opposite? Every time I look up you happen to be where I am every single time”
He looks at you like you're mental “I think someone’s a little stalker we chose this place before you guys walked in” he sneered at you.
You look up to him and cross your arms, “I think the one obsessed is you, every damn time I look up there you are literally staring into my soul, what the fuck is your problem.”
“No problem here like you said I just happen to be here when you are” he shrugs
“Asshole” you mumble
Walking back to your table you feel his stare burning into the back of your head.
When you excuse yourself to the bathroom you couldn’t help but look up at Jungkook. He was laughing with his friends with his hands on his lap; manspreading. “God, damn it does he have to be so fine” You mumble under your breath
After freshening up you walk back to the table, and you see a girl next to him. She’s touching on his tattooed arm and giggling at what he said. You felt this weird sensation in your stomach. Was it jealousy? No way, but he can’t possibly be that funny she’s holding her stomach.
Walking back to the girls and sitting back down. Irene notices something off about your mood.
“Hey, are you okay?” Irene placed a hand on your back.
“You look a little red” You take your phone out to check your face. You needed to calm down.
“Oh, it’s just getting a little hot in here is all.” She gives you a soft smile and nods her head
After lunch was over, you decided to take a walk around the city to look around and find something to do to pass the time. Jini had found a photo booth near one of the stands selling handmade pictures “Guys!” she exclaimed “Let’s take some pictures!” Ten poses later, Yunjin found a bakery and got something to snack on while you looked around. After waiting for Yunjin and Jini you all decided to hang out and look at the scenery.
~
Walking back to the dorms it was sunset hour. The walk back to the dorms was breathtaking. The sun was setting low over the horizon, and the sounds of the waves crashing were soothing. When you got back to the dorms everyone filed to their rooms to relax and figure out the plan for what to do for dinner. You ended up texting Niki and telling her about today.
Me: Omg Niki, today was our first day of the beach program. We went out and explored Busan. It’s so beautiful over here I wish you could see for yourself.
Me: But you’ll never guess who I’m spending the next two months with
I wait for her to respond. It only takes a couple seconds until I see the three grey dots pop up on my screen.
Niki: Aww I miss you so much we should take a girl's trip soon! But pleaseeee tell me it’s not who I think it is
Me: Jeon Jungkook
Niki: NO YOURE LYING
You chuckle at her response
Me: I’m being serious
Niki: I thought he was stupid and didn’t show up to the meetings how did he know about this trip?
Me: Supposedly he’s friends with Yuno’s group and Yuno told him about the trip.
Waiting another few seconds until the three dots appear again.
Niki: Of course, he’s friends with them they all fuck around especially Jungkook
Me: You’re right, I should’ve known they were friends. Anyways I gotta get ready for dinner soon, I’ll update you if anything else happens.
This time she takes a few minutes
Niki: Alrighty! Enjoy your dinner and you BETTER tell me everything! I love you and stay safe!
You smile at her last text. Putting your phone down you start to get ready for tonight. The mentor wanted everyone to have dinner together so they could discuss the plans for tomorrow. Deciding to take a shower to wash off the sweat from today’s adventures and redo your makeup in a different style. You curled your hair and chose different shoes, deciding to go with low pumps to make walking around easier. The dress you had picked out was a simple little summer dress with small flowers decorated all over.
~
Walking downstairs you see Jungkook with Eunwoo talking. He’s cladded with a black blazer with a white shirt underneath paired with black dress pants and white shoes. In all honesty he looked handsome tonight. His hair is slicked back and he's wearing a chain around his neck with rings on his fingers.
As you make your way down the stairs, he looks up from Eunwoo to you. He looks back down and finishes his conversation with a smile.
“He looks like he’s about to eat you alive. I don’t blame him; you look so good” Yunjin says
You smile at her and compliment her back “Oh my God, are you kidding? You took my breath away the second you walked out of the room; I love your makeup” you say giggling. The mentor comes up and introduces himself when everyone seems to be present.
“Hello everyone, my name is Mr. Kwan I will be in charge of everything that goes on around here and I will be announcing our activities for the next month or so.”
You look around and your eyes land on Jungkook. He’s standing next to Yuno now with his arms crossed. He must have felt your stare because he turned his head towards you and then to the floor. You can make out a faint smirk on his lip. You look away with a confused expression and take your phone out to check if you have something on your face. Not seeing anything you shake it off and turn your attention to Mr. Kwan
“Tomorrow is when we start your tasks. I will assign each of you to a job and that’s the task you must do for that week, every other week each group will switch tasks. You will get to have a day off as a break. Do I make myself clear?” Mr. Kwan says.
There's a mix of yeses and head shakes. He takes out a clip board and tells us what to do next. “Okay, I have two boards with the list of names, please take turns finding your name on either one of these” He places them down on a table and asks, “Any questions?” One of the many students, Vernon, raised his hand and asked, “Can we go out after hours?”
“No, everyone should be in their rooms with lights off, no sneaking out or bringing outside guest” As you walk over to the beach cleanup board and find your name nowhere to be seen. Finally walking to lifeguard duty, there your name was. But right under it say. Jeon Jungkook.
This means you’d have to spend the next two months in the presence of Jungkook. Shaking your head, you turn around back to Yunjin to figure out what she had gotten. But instead, you're met with a firm chest. Looking up to meet the face of the person you see him; he has his hands on your elbows to stabilize me.
“Watch where you’re going.” he says with furrowed brows.
He lets go of you and walks over to the clip boards. You hear him chuckle.
“What’s so funny?” You asked him.
He turns around to face me and says, “I have to spend my days at the beach with you? For two months? I’m going to die if I even spend another minute with you.” he shakes his head pinching the bridge of his nose.
“Yeah, well I’m not so fond of you either Jeon. So, stop bitching about it, I’m not excited about it either” with that I roll my eyes and walk away.
~
At the restaurant everyone picked their own tables. You see Jungkook a few more tables down from where you’re sat, thank God. You took your seat next to Yunjin and talked about the events for the upcoming week.
“What did you get for this week?” I asked her.
“I have clean up duty. I heard the weather’s supposed to be nice so I’m not too worried” You clear your throat and sit up in your seat. “I have lifeguard duty and guess who I’m with.” You look over to Jungkook and he has a grin on his face with his arms crossed and his head tilted down.
“Oh no.” she says placing a hand on your arm
“I have to spend the next two months with him every single day. I don’t know how I’ll survive” you say rubbing your head.
~
Nearing the end of the dinner everyone gets up to leave and go back to the dorms. The restaurant was only a few minutes away, so some decided to walk. Those ‘some’ being you and your group, Jungkook and his, and a couple of other students. As you’re walking, you see Jungkook walking aside Yuno.
He has his hands in his pocket and he’s looking out at the beach. It looked beautiful tonight, the moon lit up the sand and the stars were beaming. Not looking at where you were stepping, you had tripped over your feet and waited to hit the floor. But you never made contact.
Instead, you feel a strong set of arms around your waist, and when you open your eyes; you see Jungkook looking down at you. You stayed still for a few seconds before he lifted you back up. His hold tight around you tight
“Be careful, idiot” he said before letting go
I stared at him. You had question why he didn’t just stand there and let you fall. He turned around to catch up with his friends and continued to walk back to the dorms like nothing happened
~
Back at the dorms everyone goes to their respected rooms and gets ready for bed. As Irene went to turn off the light, she heard a knock on the door. You get up from the bed and check to see who it is. When you open the door and you’re met with Jungkook and Yuno. Yuno speaks up and says, “Were going out, if you wanna join us you can.” Irene and Jini walk up to me
“Who’s at the door” Irene and Yuno meet eyes. He smiles at her.
“Um, were just gonna go out and hang, I was just saying that guys can come and join us if you want.”
“Uh yeah sure” she says.
“Alright, cool meet you guys down there in a few” You go to look up at him, but Jungkook had already had his eyes on you looking you up and down smiling. That’s when you realized you’re in a Hello Kitty pajama set. Looking down you quickly push past Irene and Jini.
Yunjin was fast asleep already, quietly making your way to the bathroom to get the stuff you need and change out of your clothes. You end up wearing a plain gray T-shirt with black baggy sweats
Finally done putting makeup on, only putting on some light foundation and lip gloss, you put on some white sneakers and start to head out with the girls. Closing the door softly, you walk out and see Jungkook with his arms crossed and back against the wall next to his door. He looks up and says, “Where are your Hello Kitty pajamas?” he chuckles. you stopped to glare at him and walk away. Before you could reach the first step, you felt his grip on my arm.
“Aren’t you scared were gonna get caught little miss goody two shoes” he raised his eyebrows.
“Go away, I’m only going out because YOUR friend invited us, and all my other friends are going out with you guys. I don’t want to be stuck in the dorm not doing anything.”
“And don’t judge my Hello Kitty pj’s I saw the big ass plush sitting on your bed when I went to go downstairs earlier”
He stops for a minute as he watches you ascend down the stairs. Hearing his loud footsteps following close behind you. Reaching the bottom of the stairs you see your friends waiting for you.
“What took you so long?” Jini asked
“Ask him” you point at Jungkook
“So where are we going?” you asked
“There’s a bonfire my friend is hosting. There’s gonna be so much we can do, I can’t stay in that tiny ass dorm all day” Yuno exclaimed. As you’re walking to the beach you feel someone walking next to you. Jungkook looks straight ahead as you make your way down to the bonfire. His hair is still damp from the shower he took, he’s wearing a gray crewneck with black shorts. His hands in his pocket he speaks up “Why are you on this trip?”
“I could be asking you the same thing. I haven’t seen you at a single meeting yet now all of a sudden, you’re interested?”
“Oh? So you pay attention to me now?” he looks down smiling
“No, it’s just that you never cared or even bothered listening to what anyone said about this program so now do you feel the need to participate in it?”
He looks everywhere but you.
“I don’t know, I heard someone was going to be here and decided fuck it and signed up.” he shrugs with his hands behind his back. You look up at him with a curious look on your face. As you were about to speak up you hear Yuno’s voice
“Yo, JK we could use a little help over here”
Jungkook looks back at you and says “Gotta go, don’t go tripping when I’m not here to catch you” he winks at you
He runs down to help the guys and you’re left confused.
~
Everyone was surrounded by the fire, drinking, and having a good time. Jungkook is across from where you’re sitting and he’s laughing about something his friend said. He looks up and meets your eyes and you quickly turn your head to look away. From the corner of your eye, Jungkook stands up to walk to the cooler next to him. He picks up a cool beer and makes his way over to you. He hands you the beer and sits next to you.
“How do you like it so far?” he asked
“Why are you being nice to me? You acted like you hated me the whole day” your eyebrows furrowed
“What are you talking about?”
“You know what it’s getting late, and I don’t have time to deal with you right now”
He stands up as the same time as you and grabs your arm “Wait”, you stop and look at him
“At least let me walk you back to the dorms”
Hesitantly agreeing, he lets go of your arm and you both make your way back to the rooms.
~
It’s the first day of your tasks. Everybody separates into different cars. The beach you’re working at is only a 30-minute drive. All the seats are taken except for the one next to the person you prayed you wouldn’t have to see until you got to the beach. Jungkook looked at you and looked down on his lap. You finally went to sit down next to him. You put your earphones in and blast your music so you wouldn’t have to hear him talk.
You wake up with your head heavy against something. When you open your eyes and feel Jungkook’s head on top of yours and your cheek against his shoulder. Immediately you raise your head –waking him up in the process- and hop out of the car.
Taking in a deep breath you walk over to the ledge of the hill the cars parked at and look over the edge. You close your eyes for a moment to take in the salty air of the sea. The wind is blowing your hair out of your face. Little did you know Jungkook was staring at you; admiring the way you looked so relaxed. After a few more seconds you turn your head and walk over to the car to grab your stuff
You already had your swimsuit on under an oversized T-shirt and some shorts. It was an open back black one piece you had bought the day prior to coming on the trip. You carry your bag down the sand but feel it lift off your shoulder. You look up and see Jungkook carry it all the way down to your stations.
“Okay everyone, listen up” Mr. Kwan yelled
“I have assigned everyone a partner to work with for the next week, please come up to me and tell me your name”
As you walk up to Mr. Kim you tell him your name and he tells you who he paired you with. Surprise again you’re with Jungkook. He calls him over and tells him what he told you. Jungkook looks down at you and you look up at him. He smirks and walks back to where he set your things. Following behind him you unpack your things.
You grab your sunscreen, squeeze a dollop into your hand, and you rub it all over your body; starting on your front. Jungkook stands next to you as he takes his shirt off, showing off his body. You stare up at him and admire him for just a second. He looks down and catches your eyes
“Are you staring at me?” he chuckled
Looking away quickly you say “No, I wasn’t”
“Sure, whatever you say, you need help with that?” he says as he points to you struggling to get your back.
“Yes, please” going to hand him the bottle he squeezed some on to his hand and moves your hair to the side. He glides his hand across the span of your back. He starts at your shoulders and works his way down to the middle of your back. His hands moving slowly, getting closer to your lower back.
You clear your throat, and his hands are to himself now. You lay your hair in it’s original spot and you stand to look at the beach full of people. It was only 9:00 in the morning yet the beach was packed. Walking over to your stand you climb the steps and take a seat. Jungkook walks over next to the stand, and he has a floaty in his hand. A couple of minutes pass by in silence before he speaks up.
“When do you want to switch spots?”
“When we see someone drowning”
He sighs and sits down.
~
After nearly an hour later a group of girls walk up to him, and they giggle as loud as they can staring at him. He looks up at the noise and stares at them. “Excuse me?” one of the girls says “Yes?” she extends her arm out “Do you mind taking a picture of us?” Jungkook grabs her phone and angles it. “One, two, three” he takes the picture. The girl reaches for her phone and pauses to look at him.
“Hey, are you free tonight?” she asked him
Watching the interaction between the two you roll your eyes. What you don’t notice is that Jungkook looks up at you and back down to the girl
“Uhm, no actually, I do have plans for tonight sorry.” He rejects her offers and hands her phone back to her.
She has a disappointed look on her face and a sad smile plastered on her face. “It’s okay, I hope you have a good rest of your day”. With that she walks away.
Now at the end of the day and the sun getting lower, you and Jungkook switched spots through half of it. Taking turns every so often. He would try to make small talk, but you always managed to find a way around it. He looks up at you and calls your name
“You wanna jump into the water real quick” he says as he watches you make your down from the booth.
“No thanks, I wasn’t planning on getting wet unless I needed to.”
“Oh c’mon just real fast. The weather is nice around this time” he begged
“Jungkook I sai-”
Before you can finish your sentence, your body is being carried over his shoulders. You throw soft punches at his back and yell at him.
“Jungkook put me down! I’m not playing with you right now!” you screamed in his ear.
He ignores you and laughs loudly. His feet meet the water, once he's deep enough into the ocean he plunges you till you're soaked.
Emerging from the water you pull your hands back over your hair. Jungkook stops and stares at you. Admiring your beauty, when you catch him staring, he doesn’t look away this time. This time he stares into your eyes. It’s that has to look away.
“What?” you said
“Nothing” he clears his throat and looks down at the water
“We should probably head back to the car. The sun is starting to set”
You nod quietly and make your way to the shore. After one last glance at Jungkook, you walk over your things.
The walk back to the car was silent. He offered to carry your bags for you. You had rejected his offers repeatedly, but he insisted on carrying them up the steep hill back up. The way back was anything but smooth. The road was bumpy which ended with you and Jungkook bumping arms after every bump, it was summer which meant humid air. Your skin is slick with sweat. Wishing you were back to the dorms so you could soak in the hot tub.
~
When everyone got back to the hotel Mr. Kwan let everyone roam freely. You decided to head upstairs to your room to relax before going to the backyard spot of the building. When you open the room, you’re met with Yunjin and Irene.
“God, the sun has me so exhausted I could crash right now.” you said as you lay on your bed, body spread into a star fish.
“I know, who knew the beach would be full of that much trash” Yunjin complained
“Atleast we get to switch off, so we feel as equally as drained” you told her
“Yeah, lifeguarding was so easy. All we did was sat there in the sun and waited for someone who needed help in the water” Irene added
“Well lucky you guys, I literally took laps around the whole beach and still managed to find a piece of trash in the place I was already in.” Yunjin rolled her eyes playfully
“Well if you guys aren’t tired, you wanna join me in the backyard area?”
“No, you guys go ahead. I think I’m just gonna crash after I clean myself up. My body’s gonna be so sore tomorrow” she complained
“Yeah, I was planning on walking into the city and look for more things we can do while were here” Irene said
Looks like it was just you tonight.
~
When you woke up from your nap you looked at the clock and it read 8:00 pm. It was much later than you anticipated it to be. You get up from your bed and walk over to the bathroom. Turning on the sink you splash some water onto your face to wake yourself up a little more. You walk over to your drawer and pick out one of the bikinis you have packed.
It was a simple black two piece with bows on both sides of the hip. Covering your body up with only a T-shirt you make your way downstairs with a towel in hand and slippers on your feet. You open the gate and walk past the pool area to get to the hot tub. Before you left you grabbed a small speaker you planned on bringing and placed it next to the table near you. Playing calm music, you sink down into the water and relax your muscles.
It’s not a few minutes later you hear the gate crack open. You open your eyes and your met with the sight of Jungkook. He hadn’t put a shirt on before coming down there. His abs were out for display, his tattoos pretty as ever in the moonlight. His biceps are so visible that you almost faint. He looks to see where the music was coming from and catches sight of you in your bikini. Shirt thrown over the table with the speaker close to you. He walks over to you.
“Hi” he says lowly he stands behind you and his arms are leaning against the edge of the hot tub. His face hovering over yours. Your breath hitches as you realize how close he is.
“Hi’ you say quietly.
He moves so he can climb into the pool with you. Jungkook sits on the opposite side of you and relaxes in the water as you did. After a beat of silence, he speaks up
“I haven’t properly talked to you since” he pauses
“Ever actually”
You scoff and turn your head to the side in disbelief
“Yeah, I wonder why”
“Do you really hate me that much? All of that happened years ago, why can’t you just let it go?”
“Jungkook you called me names and you made me miserable. Not having those top grades; I would be punished so harshly because I wasn’t smart enough for my parents. I still hate you to this day because you never realized how much hurt you put me through?! There were so many times I've overheard you talk so lowly about me. Jungkook we didn't even know each other!"
"So, to answer your question, yes, I do hate you. Stop trying to talk to me out of the blue and act like we're friends because we're not. Leave me alone" Before you can get up to leave you feel his grasp tight around your wrist.
"Hey, look, I'm sorry. Okay? I'm sorry I did all of that. But cut me some slack, I was failing and I finally got my shit together until you came in with your perfect grades and knocked me down. But like I just said this is all in the past. Can you please forget it?" he pleads
You pause for a moment, were you overreacting? Possibly. But you will never forget the cruel words he spoke about you. One last look over at him and you retreat back to your dorm.
~
It’s been a week since your last encounter with Jungkook. He hasn’t made any moves to try and talk to you. Your group was now doing trash pick-up around the beach. It was supposed to be hotter than the week before now that it’s getting later into the summer.
As you were walking around the beach to do your task you had a slight feeling of dizziness, but you decided to ignore it. You brushed it off as a headache due to skipping lunch and only having water. It was then that you realized that wasn’t the case because before you could lean back up from picking up a piece of trash you stumble back. Jungkook notices this and quickly runs over to you.
He stood behind you support you with his arm wrapped around your neck.
“Are you okay? You look pale, do you need water? Or I brought a few snacks in my bag before we left, do you want me to grab one for you?” he said quickly laying you down on the sand.
“Water is fine, thank you”
He walks over to his bag to give you his water bottle he drank from earlier. You quickly took a few gulps and retracted it from your lips. Jungkook looks down at you with a worried look.
“Look, I’m fine just give me a few minutes and I’ll be up good as new.”
“No, just stay here there isn’t that much left to be picked up. Stay in the shade until I come back. I won’t be too long” He walks away to finish your tasks with gloves over his hands also with a bag, and a trash scoop.
It’s minutes later that he’s back kneeling in front of you check how you were feeling.
“You don’t look so pale anymore. We should be done for today; the sun is already starting to set, and we should be heading back now.” he says as he looks at you.
He turns his back still in a kneeling position and you look at him confused.
“What are you doing?”
“Get on my back. You’re too tired to walk up the hill, I don’t want you passing out.”
“I’m not gonna pass out Jungkook. Stop being so dramatic” you say in an annoyed voice.
“Just get on my back” he demands.
You sigh and hop on his back like he asked. He had his bag swung around to the front of his body. He stands up and carries you like you weigh nothing. After reaching the top of the hill he sets you down and you thank him quietly. You both walk back to the car where everyone else is and drive back to the dorms.
~
As you and Jini were done putting on your face masks you hear and sudden knock on the door. When you open the door, you’re face to face with Jungkook. He looks up to see your bare face. It takes him a minute to get his words out
“My friends and I were gonna head out to get some drinks if you wanna join us”
You look at him with astonishment. Thinking back to your conversation from a week ago. Before you could decide against it Jini walks up to the door.
“Hey, Jungkook. Why are you over here so late? Shouldn’t you be in your dorm?” she asked
“Uh, yeah, I am but I was just asking if you guys wanted to come out with us tonight. Were just going out for drinks at this club I found not too far from here.”
“Oh sure! We’d love to go!” she says as she looks at you
You sigh and smile at her.
“Okay great come down whenever you're ready and meet us in the common area.” he says before walking away back into his room.
After you close the door, you walk over to the other girls and ask them if they wanted to go out with you.
“Oh yeah! Sure, we haven’t been out drinking in a while. And it’s nice to get out and away from the program and the dorms for a little bit.” Irene replied
“Yesss, I need to get out. I’ve been couped up in this building for far too long.”
Now with everyone’s agreement you all get dressed pretty for your night out. Grabbing a dress, you took out a SKIMS black dress that fitted you perfectly. You threw a cropped leather jacket with it and black heels. Your neck was decorated with a small chain, and you put your hoops on. The makeup look you went for was light. It consisted of eyeliner, mascara, and natural colored lipstick.
Once everyone was dressed you all headed downstairs to meet up with the guys. As you landed on the last step you look up at everyone. More specifically Jungkook. He had on a black jacket with black cargo pants. He also had chucky sneakers to go along with it. His ears were clad with multiple earrings, and you look down to his lip and see his lip piercing. He looked extremely good for tonight. He makes his way over to you.
“Are you guys ready?” he asked everyone, but his eyes stayed on you.
Yuno had ordered an Uber to drive to the club everyone jumped into the car and that left you sitting next to Yunjin. Jungkook was sitting by the window with Jini in between him and Eunwoo. Yuno and Irene had to order a seperate car because they wouldn’t fit into the car you were all in.
~
At the club there seemed to be a long line. Eunwoo knew a quicker way in and you followed behind him. You entered from the back way, where no one else could see you.
“Why don’t you guys go find a seat. We’ll get the drinks for you” Jungkook yelled over the music so you could hear better.
“Okay” you yelled back as you looked around for a big table.
The room was filled with strobing lights and heavy-based music. The dance floor was full of sweaty bodies. The air around you was humid "I feel so suffocated in here" you said aloud
" You wanna go outside for a minute" Jungkook came up beside you and placed a hand on your back.
"No, it's fine I'll get used to it" you smile at him.
The boys came back with your drinks and set them down in front of you. They had bought multiple shots and took them one by one.
Once you all had a decent amount of alcohol in your system you moved to the dance floor. Irene led everyone as they all followed behind. Jungkook was closest to you. He tried his hardest to keep his hands to himself, but you were making it difficult.
Your hips move to the beat of the song. He watched as you dance like you didn’t give a damn about anything. He smiled as he watched you in your own world. Jungkook starts to dance along with you, and you turn around and move with him. His hands now on your waist as you put your hands around his neck. His hands moved down to clasp around your lower back. He leans his head forward so it’s now resting against yours. You look up into his eyes and then down to his lips. You lean in closer, and then you're interrupted.
“You mind if I cut in?” a random man from the crowd asks
You now feel uncomfortable as you let go of him. He walks in front of you and stands protectively with one hand on your arm. Jungkook looks at the guy and his jaw clenches.
“Look man were just trying to relax and have fun. Leave us alone” he defends. You look down and see his hands clutched into a fist.
“I came out to have some fun too.” You turn your head towards the man
“And it looks like she’s getting a little bored” he laughs
“She’s fine, look if you don’t get the fuck out of here there gonna be a fucking problem” Jungkook yells.
The man starts to walk closer and extends his hands up to you. You clutch the back of Jungkook’s jacket tightly. He moves forward and swings at the man.
“What did I tell you. Get the hell out before I knock the shit out of you.” he yelled.
“Jungkook stop, let’s go” you grab his arm and try to pull him away.
Before you can move him away the man stands back up and tries to hit him before he can dodge it. He moves a little too slow and gets punched. He looks down to his hand and sees red cover his fingertips. Jungkook goes in for another swing and knocks him to the floor.
“Jungkook!! Stop it, just leave it alone so we can go” He looks up at you and turns away. You walk back to the table to collect your things so you can leave the club. You reminded yourself to text the others to let them know that you left. Jungkook sits on the curb, and you kneel in front of him. You pull out a tissue from your purse and put it up to his nose. After a beat of silence, you were the first to speak up.
“You know, I think I hate you a little less now” you say with a smile
He looks up at you and chuckles
“Thank you, for doing that. I don’t know what I would’ve done. And I’m sorry you got hit”
“Don’t mention it. As long as you’re okay, then I’m good” he says.
You smile to the floor and decide to order an uber so you could go back to the dorms
As you’re about to walk into your door you turn around and stop Jungkook before he could enter his room
“Jungkook, thank you again. I had fun tonight, minus the fight” you giggle
“I’m glad you did, goodnight” he smiles
“Goodnight Jungkook”
~
You’re back on lifeguard duty this week. It’s a bunch more calm than the first week of lifeguarding. Instead of sitting and switching spots for hours and not doing anything, you were able to roam around. As you were sitting on the chair you spoke up
“Hey, are you thirsty? I was gonna walk over to that hut to get something to drink” you point into the diretion of the stall.
“Nah, I’m good, thank you.”
Standing to walk away, Jungkook can’t stop thinking about that night as he watches you make your way. He couldn’t stop thinking about the way you had your arms around. And how you trusted him to protect you. How close your lips were before that guy interrupted. He shakes his head from his thoughts and thinks about something else.
When you walk up to the stall you order a lemonade. You pay the man and wait for your drink. Looking around to see if anybody else was around, you see a guy. He’s about your age and much taller than you. He notices you looking at him and you turn your head back to the bar. From the corner of your eye you see him make his way towards you.
“Hey” he said as he tries to catch your attention. You turn your head towards him and greet him back.
“Hi” you smile at him
“Are you around here? I’ve never seen you before”
“Ah no, I’m not, I’m here for a program I volunteered for. I’m a lifeguard.” you told him
“Oh really? That seems like fun, I’m Kai by the way”
You tell him your name “It may seem like fun, but really all I do is sit and watch the people enjoy their time as I bake in the sun.”
He laughs at that. He clears his throat and speaks again
“Um, my friends and I are playing volleyball further down the beach. If you want to you can join us?”
Before you could answer Jungkook comes behind you and puts a hand around your waist. You look down to his hand up to him. He’s wearing his sunglasses over his head.
“Actually we have to get back to our dorm after our shift. We’re a bit busy at the moment.” he says with a smile on his face.
Kai looks at him with a surprised expression on his face. He looks down to you, you aswell have a look of confusion plastered across your face. Kai looks down and chuckles.
“Alright, sorry for asking.” with that he walks away his ego a little bruised.
“What the hell are you doing?” you look up at Jungkook.
“I was getting thirsty. And you were taking forever so I wanted to check on you.” he shrugs.
“You didn’t need to check up on me. I was fine” you roll your eyes at him
“Plus he was cute. I was so close to getting his number”
After hearing you say that Jungkook’s jaw clenches. He absolutely hates that he feels this way right now. Deciding to brush it off you both make your way back to your spot. Getting closer to the end of your shift. You start to pack your things as the beach dies down.
~
Back at the dorms Mr. Kwan decided to gather everyone for dinner to celebrate your hard work for the past month. Once you and Jungkook make it back he helps you take your things out of the car and follows you up to your room.
When you turn your back to him he waits for you to unlock the door; “Thank you” you say to him. He hands you your bags and stops for a minute. The air is stuffy around you. You wait for him to speak up and say something. But his lips never move.
Before you know it, his face is leaned over yours, and your lips are over his.
The kiss is soft. Your heart is beating out of your chest, and you need to stop to catch your breath. Parting from his lips you look up into his eyes, noses touching; he takes a deep breath before walking away to his room, leaving you dazed and speechless; not knowing what to do you stand there and try to comprehend what had just happened.
Yunjin is on the other side of the door when you walk in. She looks up at you. “What happened?” she asked. You unintentionally ignore her and walk to the bathroom. Your face is burning with rosy cheeks. You replay the kiss in your head. It was completely out of the blue and caught you off guard. How were you supposed to act normal the next time you saw him. The dinner was in less than 3 hours. With all the extra time you decide to get ready and drift your mind elsewhere.
~
After everyone had finished getting ready. When you and Irene make it down the stairs Irene heads straight to Yuno. The night of the club you never heard her come back to the dorm. You suspected she had spent the night with him. She had her arms around his waist looking at him with hearts in her eyes.
Now by yourself you look around for any of your friends. You see Jungkook; he looks at you, but he doesn’t do anything. He meets you eye and looks away to his friend. The feeling you felt in your chest was confusion, anger, and a little hurt. How could he kiss you like that and act like it didn’t happened? Turning your body to find Yunjin; she walks down the stairs and her face lights up when she spots you.
“Okay, are you ever gonna tell me what the hell happened before you walked through our door or what. Your face was so red.” she asked curiously
“I’ll tell you later, I don’t want to think about it right now”
She looks at you with a worried look and shakes her head. Everyone gets into a car and the driver drives to the restaurant.
~
Once all the students were seated, Mr. Kwan raises his glass and clinks it with the back of a butter knife. “I would like to praise you all for working so hard for this past month” he says enthusiastically. He raises his voice an octave higher “With all your hard work I would like to give you the last 3 weeks of this month free, please relax, enjoy yourseleves, and have fun. You all earned it” he announces. A bunch of chattering is heard all around. “Now, please enjoy your dinners”
From across the room you see Jungkook laughing and chatting with his friends. Looking at him made you feel this sense of anger. Why are you mad at him when you hate his guts? Why are you did you feel that way when he had his soft lips over yours? Why were you feeling those emotions when you saw that girl flirt with him down at the beach? Why are you feeling all these things about him now?
Why
Why
Why?
All of these questions spiraling through your head like a mantra. Not taking the overthinking you walk out the resturaunt to get some fresh air. When you walk past his table he sees you walk to the exit. Jungkook excuse himself from his friends; he stands and walks into the direction you took.
He looks through the glass door and sees you pacing with your hands on your hip and a hand in your hair. You turn to the sound of the door opening. Jungkook stood there and walked closer to you. But, you take a step back.
“What was that” you ask him.
“What was what?” he has a confused look on his face
“Why are you playing dumb?! You’re just gonna act like you never kissed me and... and I wouldn’t do anything about it?” you exclaimed at him. Your emotions were all over the place. You had no idea how to handle them
He says your name quietly “It was just a stupid kiss, no big deal”
Suddenly, you felt a burning sensation in the back of your eyes. You didn’t know for sure how you felt. But you were sure there was something there.
“Okay” quietly
“I was just being stupid and thought something different but I guess I was wrong” you nod your head and make your way back into the resturaunt.
The tears dropping down onto your cheek made you feel pathetic. Pathetic for making you think that Jeon Jungkook had changed over the years. For thinking that Jeon Jungkook had real feelings for you. Before you walk back to the table you check yourself one last time to make sure your eyes weren’t puffy and your nose wasn’t red. Right now you weren’t in the mood for questions.
Sitting back down at your table and you see Jungkook come back from where you left him. He has his head down with a look of sadness on his face. He sits down next to his friends; less content than how he was before you left to go outside.
~
On the way back to the dorm Yunjin notices that your mood has dropped significantly since you came back into the resturaunt. When you finally settle into your dorm she asks you again, “Okay, for real this time, what the hell is up with you. You’ve been acting so different lately”
And that’s when you explain everything to her. From the kiss and to your conflicted feelings. In all honesty you don’t even know where you stand with Jungkook anymore. You’re between hating him and possibly having the fatest crush on him.
It’s then when it’s later into to the night you decide to call Niki. You missed talking to your best friend. It’d been a while since you last spoke to her.
After three rings she picks up the phone
“Hey babe! How’s the trip been so far? I haven’t spoke to you in so long is everything okay?” she speaks in a soft voice. That’s what you loved about her. She was there for you anytime of the day. You would be okay even if you hadn’t spoke to each other for days at a time. That's the type of friendship you had with her.
“Ugh Niki, I miss you so much. So much has happened and I need to tell you.”
“Oh no, what happened? Did something bad happen?! Did you get hurt?!” she says panicked.
“No no, I’m okay but something did happen.” you reassure her.
“Okay please tell me, you’re scaring me”
“Jungkook kissed me” the line is silent for a moment before it’s not.
“HE WHAT?” she yells into your ear
You have to pull the phone away because of how loud she was.
“He kissed me after one of shifts today. I confronted him about and I feel so stupid for thinking that he liked me because right after I asked him about it he said ‘it wasn’t a big deal’.” you tell her in a sullen tone.
“God is he dumb? Why would you kiss someone randomly and admit that it was nothing?” she sounded irritated.
“Exactly my thoughts. I’m so confused Niki one moment I don’t care about him and the next some girl is giggling next to him touching his arm and I feel so annoyed”
She sighs and calls your name calmly “I may be wrong but it sounds like you have feelings for him”
You pause and register what she just said. You? Had feelings for Jeon Jungkook? Everything is starting to come together in your head. You finally speak up
“Yeah, I think I do”
~
It’s been about a week since the dinner. You hadn’t seen Jungkook. The only few times you’d seen him was when you went downstairs to eat breakfast or when he left his room to go elsewhere. But tonight was different. With the free time you were given you spent it at the beach. You hadn’t gone swimming in the ocean for quite some time so you decided to put on a bikini, threw on some clothes you had laying in your drawer, and grabbed a towel from one of the cabinets in the hall.
You made your way down to the beach by yourself and brought your mini speaker with you. The playlist you had put on was a slow playlist. You watched the sun set while the song My Love is All Mine by Mitski played in the background. While the sun was still out you decided to take off your clothes and go into the water
From afar Jungkook spots you standing near the water; the waves are calm; he admires you from where he’s standing. You, completely unaware of his presence you dip your body into the water until it touches your waist. Your hair flowing in the soft wind. Behind you, you hear the water moving. When you turn your body to the sound; there he is. He’s standing with his shirt off arms out to see and his abs for show.
Completely in awe you snap out of it and turn back around.
“What do you want” you ask quietly.
“What? It’s a public beach. It’s not like you reserved this spot” he retorts back
“No, Jungkook. What do you want.” You hear him sigh. He takes a deep breath and finally says
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry that I kissed you so suddenly, I’m sorry I made you feel the way you did after I said that kiss was nothing, I’m sorry because that kiss made me feel so much.” he pleads. He places his arms on your waist and continues. “I’ve wanted to give you that kiss since I first saw you at the train station. I haven’t stopped thinking about you since we bumped into each other at the café”
It had been several months since that incident.
You walked in on a cool spring day. The bell chimed at the top of the door as you made your way over to the counter. After you had made your order, you turned to walk over to a table. But before you can take a step you bump into something –or more something- you look up and see Jeon Jungkook. You hadn’t seen him since the beginning of sophomore year. He looks down at you with an irritated look; but when he sees your face his expression drops. You looked so cute with your double layers on; making you look so soft and hugable; your hair was up in a clip and your cheeks were rosy from the cold.
“Sorry” you had told him quickly and made your way over to your table. Jungkook was surprised it was you. You had grown into such a beautiful woman. He couldn’t take his eyes off you. From then on, he couldn’t get you to escape his mind.
“I heard from Yuno about this trip and figured you’d go, I thought this would be my chance to make things right between us. I’m so sorry I said all those things to you while we were growing up, I was stupid and let my ego get in the way. So, when I first saw you it’s like I couldn’t see anything else but you.” he confesses.
All of this new information being thrown at you, you don’t know what to do with it. You had thought for all those years and all this time the hate between you two was mutual. You couldn’t have been more wrong.
“I want you to understand my feelings for you. I want to try and make it w-” before he can even finish his sentence you pull him by his hair and connect your lips. He raises his eyebrows and sinks into the kiss. His tongue slips into your mouth. He places his hands under your jaw and his other on your waist. Without breaking the kiss, he picks you up; you wrap your legs around his waist. The sun has set by now and it’s starting to get cold. He let’s go of your lips and look into your eyes. You move your lips closer to his ear and whisper “You wanna go warm up somewhere else?”
Quickly, he drags you out of the water while you giggle into the air. He places you down and hurriedly picks your things up. He grabs your hand, and you make your way back to his dorm. His roommates are supposed to be out tonight; you had the whole room to yourselves.
~
Pushing you against the door he smacks his lips against yours. You sneak your hands under his shirt and feel his abs flex against your fingertips. You move to lift his shirt off his body. He kisses down your neck; he lifts your shirt over your head and your left with your bikini top and your shorts. He lifts you off the floor and manhandles you onto his bed. You lay on your back and look up at him. Your legs are spread with him standing between them. He glides his hand up your thighs and he drags your shorts down your leg.
You’re left with just your bikini on now. He kisses you on your inner thighs close to where you need him the most. Jungkook grabs the bow that ties your bikini together and undoes it. Your heat is exposed to the cold air. He kisses your hip getting closer to your pussy; his hot breath touches your lips, and you gasp quietly. Finally, he makes contact; he glides his tongue through your folds, and you make small sounds of pleasure. His tongue makes figure eights over your clit; he moves his hand under your thighs to pull you closer to his mouth. His strong grip has you breathless.
Jungkook squeezes your inner thigh and gives small kisses around your cunt. He dives back in and the only thing in the air is the sound of him slurping and licking up your slick. You moan his name out loud and place your hands in his hair.
“Jungkook” you moan out loud
“Say that again, baby. Let me hear you” he says
“Ugh, Jungkook please, please don’t stop.” you plead desperately
“Yeah, that’s it. Who’s making you feel good?”
“You! You are Jungkook!” you shout
You start to feel the pressure in your lower tummy. You tightly close your eyes, and you see stars. He pushes you through your orgasm and finally pulls away after you pull on his hair so he’s hovering over your face. You bring him down to kiss you. He slips his tongue in and kisses you softly. You can taste yourself on his lips. Jungkook pulls away and scans your face. Your fucked out gaze looking up at him. He places his hand over your cheek and stares at you.
“You’re so God damn beautiful. So pretty like the stars. I can look at you forever.” he says to you lowly. You look up into his boba eyes, you can see the galaxy in them. He looked so pretty up closely.
He leans in and kisses you next to your cheek. He kisses your neck and then, he pushes himself up. He’s on his knees in front of you. You can see his outline through his shorts. You go to sit up and place a hand over him. He looks down at you and you place soft pecks over his covered cock. He groans loudly; you then start to play with the waistband of his shorts; slowly you pull them. He’s left bare in front of you. You move your hand to stroke him. Feeling his prominent veins; you thumb at his throbbing tip and place soft kisses over it.
“Baby, what are you doing to me.” He looks down at you and strokes your hair.
“Can you take me in your mouth? Or am I too big for you” he teases
You laugh at that “I don’t know, why don’t we find out”
You like a stripe down his length and stop at his tip. Looking up into his eyes; his lips are parted and he breathless. His hand is placed on the back of your head. Finally, you take him into your mouth, starting slow. He moans and tilts his head back, his grip on your hair tightens. You bob your head back and forth, using your tongue and swirling it around his tip. Your hand moves to fondle his balls, and this makes his cock twitch. Hips moving to the rhythm of your mouth and his hand guiding you to his dick.
“Can I fuck your mouth baby?” You look up at him and nod.
“Tell him if I’m hurting you. Tap on my thigh if you want me to stop” With that he slams his cock to the back of your throat. You take deep breaths as you gag on him. Your nose hitting his pelvis he speeds up his thrusts.
“Fuck yeah, that’s it sweetheart. Doing so good for me” he praises you.
When you reach down to your pussy you can feel you’ve gotten wetter. He looks down to your where your hand was and pulls you away for a second
“Nuh uh, who said you could touch yourself? Only good girls get what they want if they behave” he reprimands
He pulls you back onto him and starts at the pace he was at before.
Before he can finish in your mouth, he pulls you away.
“Fuck I need to finish inside you. Can I do that, baby?” he asks you for reassurance
You nod up to him.
“I need you to say it, honey”
“Yes, please” you moan
“Turn around, ass up face down” he demands
He looks down between your ass and his cock. He then looks up between your shoulders. Your hair thrown over your shoulder and your top still on. Jungkook moves his hand along your back and unties what’s left of your bikini.
“Fuck” he says under his breath. Finally, he takes hold of his length and drags it along your folds. You whimper silently patiently waiting for him to enter you.
He strokes himself a few more times; you feel him enter you. Gasping loudly, he groans into your ear and moves at a slow pace.
“More, Jungkook, please” you beg
“Since you asked nicely” Suddenly he pounds into your hips. You can feel him in your stomach. His pace is rapid; hard.
“You’re so deep Jungkook, fuck!” you moan.
Repeating his name repeatedly like a song. You can feel his cock twitch inside of you. You can feel every vein that around him. Every thrust you feel them against your walls. He lifts your body until your back hits his chest. His hands over your tits squeezing. Rolling your nipples between his fingers. He kisses your neck, and he places his hand over your abdomen. “God, I can feel myself inside of you, baby” you whimper into his neck. And that’s when you finally snap. You tighten around him.
“God! Jungkook! You make me feel so good, baby” you cry.
With three final thrusts he finishes inside you. Breath heavy he slowly moves, milking himself in your tight cunt.
He places you down on his pillow and slowly removes himself from you. You whimper quietly from the loss of the feeling of him inside.
“I need to clean you up and you need to go pee” he says
Picking up his shirt that you threw across the room he wipes you down and you twitch from sensitivity. When he’s done, he looks over your face and giggles.
“Come on, honey. I’ll help you shower when you’re done.”
“Okay” you say softly.
~
After your shower you and Jungkook lay in his bed. He’s not expecting his roommates to comeback; they had gone out clubbing and he assumed they’d be out all night in someone else’s bed. Your head placed over Jungkook’s naked chest you draw shapes over his chest. Jungkook grabs your wrist and notices one of the bracelets you're wearing.  
“You never thanked me for this” he says holding your wrist still  
“What are you talking about? This old lady gave it to me for free a few weeks ago when we first got here” 
He chuckles at you “That was me, I paid for it and asked her to play a part. Apparently she played her part well because you had no idea.” he boops your nose. You scrunch your face; you look up at him in disbelief.  
“I can’t believe you do that, what if she talked to the wrong girl, huh?” you said amusingly 
“Then some random girl would’ve gotten a free bracelet” he shrugs.  
You laugh at him. “Well, thank you for this” you look up at him and peck his lips.  
He digs his face into your neck and mumbles a small “Of course”  
Then, you feel his lips press small kisses into the juncture of your neck, you start laughing. All of a sudden, he stops. He lifts his head so he’s looking at you.  
“What are we?” he asks  
Realizing you never really told him how you felt. Isn’t it obvious though?  
“I could ask you the same thing Jeon”  
Whispering your name, he says “I really like you; I want to make up for my behavior throughout the years I’ve known you. I feel so guilty because of the way I treated you. I’m sorry I ever said those mean things to you, baby” he wraps he arms around you; cuddling you. 
“I forgive you” you hug him around his broad shoulders. “I like you too, Jungkook. Can we forget all of that? I want us to focus on the future only now.”  
He nods at you and smiles. “Sooo, does this make you, my girlfriend?” he asks with a cheeky smile.  
Giggling at his silly smile you nod “Yeah, I guess so, boyfriend”  
He buries his into your neck again and sighs contently. It’s not long before you two are cuddling in the sheets and hes whispering sweet nothings into your ear as you drift off to sleep.  
The next morning, you wake up to the other side of the bed empty. The sun is shining brightly in your face. You look down to your body and see the shirt Jungkook must have put on you while you were sleeping last night. You get up from the bed and walk over to the bathroom; but you don’t register the already running water turning off. When you walk in you see Eunwoo naked walking out of the shower. “Oh my god, I’m so sorry” you cover your eyes and quickly walk out. Picking up clothes that were thrown across the room from the previous night you manage your way back to your own room.  
Thankfully, the girls are out doing their own thing. You walk to your own bathroom and clean yourself up a bit before walking downstairs to the kitchen. The air is filled with the smell of pancakes, eggs, and bacon. Turning the corner you see Jungkook in a fitted sports t-shirt, over the stove cooking.  
You walk up to him and wrap your arms around his torso.  
“Good morning” you say in a sleepy voice 
“Hi, sweetheart” he turns his body so he facing you now. He leans down to peck your lips. His nose brushing against yours. You smile at him.  
“How did you sleep last night?” Looking up at him with an amusing look 
“Well you put to sleep pretty damn good last night so I’d say a ten out of ten” you laugh as you get your coffee ready. He sneaks up behind you and puts his hands around your waist. 
“I did, huh?” he lowly says into your ear.  
He sways you side to side and digs his face into your neck.  
“I was thinking maybe we can go out today and we can hang out in the city. We haven’t been here in a while; I want to see if they changed anything.” 
This was Jungkook’s hometown. He basically knew everyone. When he finished cooking your breakfast you both sat together in comfortable silence and ate.  
Finishing up your meals, you volunteered to clean up the dishes, but he was persistent in doing them himself. After fighting for about ten minutes, you give up and walk upstairs to get ready for the day. The outfit you chose was perfect for the weather. Your makeup was simple, and your hair was casting down your shoulders. When you finish putting on your shoes you hear a knock on your door. 
Walking up to open it you see Jungkook wearing a big puffer jacket, white tank top, and light blue jeans. His hair slightly covers his eyes. The chain around his neck and his piercings does something to you. You look up at him and smile.  
“Hi” looking at him with stars in your eyes.  
You look so undeniably cute. With little bows in your hair and your soft cheeks looking at him. He looks down at you and leans in to peck you on the lips.  
“C’mon, let’s go”  
The weather today wasn’t as harsh as those other sunny bright days. It’s a bit colder than the last few weeks. It was a good thing you brought an extra jacket just in case. You cand Jungkook walk down the streets hand in hand. Looking around for the places you used to hang out at with your friends when you were still in grade school. 
When you found the –now small- playground you and Niki used to play at, you let go of Jungkook’s hand and ran to it.  
Gasping out loud you say “Oh god, it’s so much small than I remember. I haven’t been here in years.” amazed by how time flies by so quickly. Jungkook watches you with a fond smile as you reminisce on the old times. You sit down on the swings and gently swing your legs back and forth. Jungkook stands next to the swing as he watches you. The sun was shining on you and he looks at your eyes they’re glowing as you look down the sand with a smile on your face.  
He goes to stand in front of you and holds on to the chain and stops you from swinging. You look up at him when you see his shoes appear in front of you. His hands over yours and he leans in close to your face.  
His lips locking with yours in a soft kiss. He pulls back and he says “You’re so beautiful.” he places a hand on your cheek.  
He looks into your eyes and he makes a promise.  
Saying your name in a low voice he says “I promise you, I will to take care of you for as long as you let me. I promise I won’t hurt you. I promise to stay” 
You look up into his eyes with tears laying on your water line. Moving your head to lay on his forehead. 
Then, you pull him into a kiss.  
“I promise, I don’t hate you Jeon Jungkook”

00 PROLOGUE | TOO FAR GONE | P.B
Tumblr media
pairing: paige bueckers x female!oc word count: 1k warnings/tags: allusions to cheating? i think that's it for this tbh. remember this is just a prologue - it'll get crazier, freakier and sadder!!!! ᡣ𐭩 better late than never, hey! excited to finally share the start of paige & sydney's story. as always - feedback and reblogs are always appreciated <3 SERIES MASTERLIST | PLAYLIST
Tumblr media
It wasn't supposed to be like this. Sydney Moore had an interesting childhood– she had a mother that loved her and a father that only ever seemed to have his best interests in mind. You could argue that it was a standard childhood for most.
She was loved. She had once been loving, too. But somewhere along the way, something shifted. The craving for chaos seeped in, spreading like ink in water, staining the good parts of her.
Sydney met Paige when they were both freshmen at the University of Connecticut. She didn't think much of her, at first. Just another blonde she'd thought when they locked eyes in class for the first time, the blonde's gaze hesitating on her before reluctantly pulling away.
Paige was quick to prove her wrong. The two found comfort in each other despite their differences; Sydney was more reserved, kept her cards held close to her chest whereas Paige was outgoing, open and ambitious. As they grew closer, the athlete would invite Sydney to her practices, to parties, to small get-togethers with friends. Sydney, more often than not, would decline, using excuses like “I need to study” or “I’m not feeling well.” Paige never pushed, only smiled, nodded, and spun away, leaving a soft ache in Sydney’s chest that would never really go away.
Sydney told herself it was better this way—better to keep that distance. Yet, there were moments when she would stand rooted in the hallway, books clutched to her chest and lips curled down in a frown, watching Paige walk away and feeling a gnawing sense of loss that shouldn’t have been there.
She wanted to be around her all the time, yet couldn't bring herself to let her in. Paige was already too close, and it terrified her but she couldn't help but want more.
It remained like this for a while and whilst the girls became closer Paige still couldn't worm her way into Sydney's brain, figure out why she acted so distant.
"Can I ask you something?" Paige had asked her one evening.
They were studying in Sydney's room, orange desk lamp casting a warm glow across the small space. Sydney hesitated, lead of her pencil hovering over the page of her notebook.
"You just did."
"Don't be a smart ass. Come here."
Sydney moved from her seat by her desk to the bed, sitting beside Paige with both of their backs leaning against the wall, feet hanging off of the edge of the bed.
"Is there something going on?" Paige sounded genuinely concerned, voice quiet.
“What do you mean?” Sydney’s voice came out strained. She could feel Paige studying her from the corner of her eye, waiting for her to open up. The thought made her hairs stand on end.
Sydney’s mind raced—memories of her father’s clipped words, of being told emotions were weaknesses, of learning to suppress every raw edge and every vulnerable part of herself. She couldn’t let Paige see the truth, not when it felt like she was barely holding it together.
"I dunno," Paige sighed, fiddling with her fingers in her lap. "You're just not there recently, y'know?"
Sydney swallowed, the taste bitter. The light in the room felt like it was dimming and she felt like the walls were closing in on her.
"I'm fine."
Their relationship evolved in fragments— moments where Sydney would let her guard down, just enough for Paige to think she was making progress, only for Sydney to retreat behind her walls again. And despite it all, Paige stayed. She stayed through the disappearances, the late night calls, the way Sydney’s affection often felt like a push and pull that left her dizzy.
Sydney grew to like it this way. She found a twisted comfort in knowing that no matter what, Paige would be there. She'd sacrifice everything for her if she had to, she was sure of it.
The thought alone awoke a part of her she didn't even know existed.
Tumblr media
two years later
"Have you spoken to Sydney recently?" Paige had asked Aubrey, fingers mindlessly running through the small knots in her ponytail. They'd just finished a late night practice and the remainder of the team had already filtered off of the court, ready to end the day.
Aubrey raised an eyebrow, eyes narrowing as she looked at the blonde. "Why would I speak to her? Have you?" she stepped forward, trainers squeaking against the hardwood of the court. An accusatory finger dug into Paige's shoulder. "Bueckers?!"
Paige brushed her off, kissing her teeth. "Nah, 'course not. Forget I asked."
Since that evening in Sydney's room two years ago, something changed. She didn't become more open with her feelings but instead she became more affectionate, much to Paige's surprise. They would spend most nights together wrapped up in each other with no conversation about what they were; where they both stood.
It became too much for Paige, the uncertainty of their situation, the way it ate away everything she did. Her grades were slipping and her performance on the court was mediocre at best.
She pulled away from Sydney, despite her iron grip.
She'd known, deep down, that it wasn't going to be easy. What she hadn't expected was the sudden lack of air in her lungs, the way her head swam, the ache in her chest. She carried on, though. Carried on with her life, got her grades back up and soon shot up to become one of UCONN's best.
"What're you guys doing out here?" a familiar voice echoed through the gymnasium- Azzi.
Paige and Azzi had met one year after she had met Sydney. They were just team mates for a long time, but as Paige started to become more worn down from Sydney, Azzi was the shoulder she cried on. Their relationship blossomed and whilst they weren't official, they were definitely something.
Azzi brought a sense of peace to Paige's life that she hadn't felt in a long time but she couldn't help but crave more.
"We were just leaving." Paige sends a half smile in Azzi's direction. She beams back, pearly whites on show.
"You okay?"
"Yeah, I'm good. Jus' tired."
Azzi threw an arm over her shoulder as they both strolled off the court. Paige could feel Aubrey's gaze searing through the back of her head, burning into her. She felt guilty as Azzi rubbed a hand up and down her bicep, giving it an affectionate squeeze.
She felt guilty as she pulled her phone from her gym bag, lowering the brightness subconsciously. She felt guilty as she kissed Azzi on the forehead and promised she'd be over as soon as she was done running an errand.
She felt guilty as she told Sydney she was on her way to her.

—CINNAMON SIN; 3 Days To Go
Pairing: Melissa Schemmenti x fem!Reader.
Genre: adult Student/Professor AU, Slow Burn, Age Gap, Power Dynamics, light smut
Word count: 1,804.
summary: You didn’t mean to fall for your political science professor. But Melissa Schemmenti—with her sharp tongue, red nails, and no-bullshit attitude—makes it hard not to.
30 DAYS OF MELISSA SCHEMMENTI MASTERLIST
You weren’t trying to get a crush on your professor.
Honestly, you weren’t.
You signed up for her class because it was the only political science elective left that didn’t meet at 8:00 AM. That was it. You hadn’t expected to find her interesting, much less attractive. And you definitely hadn’t expected her to be… Melissa Schemmenti.
Sharp voice, sharper eyes. Red nails, red pen, pressed slacks, and a presence that made everyone sit up straighter without her even asking. Her syllabus warned of no late work, no phones, and “no bullshit,” which you thought was a joke until you saw her deduct a full ten points when some sophomore tried to sneak a Snap during lecture.
You should’ve been terrified. And okay, maybe you were a little. But then she started talking about political theory in that Philly accent, voice just rough enough to curl around your ribs, and it was over.
You were screwed.
Not academically—your grades were fine. But mentally? Emotionally?
Screwed.
It wasn’t even the power thing that got you. You didn’t want to be the girl with the hot-for-teacher fantasy. But Melissa was different. She spoke like someone who’d lived it, seen it, survived it. Her lectures never felt like lectures. More like—well. Arguments. Stories. Like she wanted to teach you something real, not just feed you facts for the final.
You’d started going to office hours three weeks in, just for clarification on a reading. The first time you went, you’d nervously tried to organize your notes.
“Don’t worry,” she’d said, looking up from her desk. “You’re not in trouble. Not unless you’re about to tell me you didn’t read the damn article.”
You hadn’t, fully. But you blurted out the thesis anyway, and Melissa gave you a dry look before sliding a chair out for you.
From then on, it became a habit.
You’d show up with questions. Sometimes real ones, sometimes made-up. And she’d entertain them, eyebrow quirked, mouth tugging in a smile she rarely gave in class. She never crossed any lines. Never got too friendly. But something about the way she said your name… low and careful, like it was a secret she didn’t want to share… made you hope.
God help you, it made you hope.
You tried to be subtle about it. Really, you did.
You didn’t flirt. You didn’t linger. You didn’t add her on anything, and you never once said anything that could be twisted the wrong way. You told yourself it was a crush, not a problem. Temporary. Harmless.
But then the semester ended.
Grades were posted. Class was over. No more office hours, no more lectures.
And you felt… weirdly hollow.
It was ridiculous. You weren’t owed anything. You weren’t even sure she liked you like that. She was your professor, and you were her student—were. You hadn’t talked to her since finals week, and yet you kept checking your email like maybe she’d reach out.
She didn’t. Of course she didn’t.
You were just about ready to let it go when fate, in the form of caffeine withdrawal, shoved you into her again.
You walked into the off-campus coffee shop on a rainy Thursday, head down, hoodie up, only to freeze in the middle of the doorway.
There she was. At a corner table, sipping something from a to-go cup, book cracked open in one hand, glasses low on her nose.
You almost turned around. Almost ducked out, right back into the storm.
But then she looked up.
And smiled.
“Hey, look who’s alive,” she said, waving you over.
Your legs moved before your brain caught up. “Hey, Professor Schemmenti.”
“Melissa,” she corrected gently. “Class is over. You’re not my student anymore.”
You blinked. “Right. Of course. Hi… Melissa.”
It felt weird to say. Like getting away with something.
She nodded toward the counter. “Go grab your coffee. You can sit if you want. I’m just killin time.”
Your stomach flipped. Sit if you want. Not a command. Not a test. An invitation.
So you sat.
And for the next forty minutes, you talked about everything but class.
You made her laugh. You’re sure you did. You’d never heard it in class—not like this.
And when you finally stood to go, half-reluctant, she surprised you again.
“You know,” she said, standing too, “if you ever want help with that thesis, I still got an office.”
You hesitated. “You mean… I could come by?”
“I mean, I’ve got free time between lectures on Tuesdays and Thursdays. And you’re an adult. I can talk to whoever I damn well please.”
That smile again. Half-smirk, half-something else.
You smiled back. “Okay. I’ll stop by.”
It started again, after that.
Sometimes it was coffee. Sometimes her office. Once, you went for a walk around campus, both of you needing fresh air.
She never made a move. Never even hinted.
But her eyes lingered longer now. Her compliments were quieter. When she laughed, she didn’t look away.
And one day, after a long conversation about the ethics of local politics, she said, “You know, you really got a mind for this. Sharp as hell.”
“Thanks,” you said, flushed.
She looked down at your hands. “You ever think about going into public policy?”
You laughed softly. “I think about a lot of things.”
“Yeah?” she asked, voice low. “What else you thinkin about?”
Your breath caught.
“Melissa,” you said carefully, “is this… something?”
She was quiet for a second. “Would it scare you if it was?”
You shook your head.
“Would it screw up your future if it was?”
You hesitated—only briefly—then shook your head again. “I’m not your student anymore. You said so yourself.”
Melissa exhaled, like she’d been holding her breath for weeks. “Then yeah. I guess it is something.”
And then, finally, she kissed you.
It wasn’t frantic. It wasn’t rushed. Just warm, steady, and careful, like she’d wanted to take her time getting there. Her hands were soft on your waist, her mouth sure and gentle and entirely unfair.
When she pulled back, you felt drunk on something that wasn’t caffeine or nerves.
“I’m still a hardass,” she said quietly. “I still don’t take any bullshit. That’s not gonna change.”
You grinned. “Good. I’d be disappointed if it did.”
She chuckled. “You’re a smartass.”
“Also not gonna change.”
“Guess we’ll figure it out.”
Her office is technically closed. The door says as much, in the little laminated sign she flips to OFFICE HOURS OVER — GO AWAY UNLESS YOU’RE BLEEDING.
But she’s still here. And so are you.
The lights are dim — just the desk lamp and the dusky glow of early evening through the blinds. You can hear the hum of the heating unit and the way the campus outside is finally starting to quiet. No more students passing by. No more eyes.
Just her. And you.
Melissa’s leaned back against her desk, arms crossed, watching you like she’s waiting for you to make the next move.
You don’t. You’re too focused on the fact that her blouse is undone at the top, just enough to see the curve of her collarbone, and her heels are off — a subtle but potent reminder that she’s comfortable around you now. That maybe she’s not your professor anymore, but you still get that same thrill in your chest whenever she looks at you like that.
“You’re staring,” she says, low.
You smile. “Can you blame me?”
She pushes off the desk and walks toward you with slow, deliberate steps, like a cat that already knows it’s won.
“Could say the same about you, sweetheart,” she murmurs. “You’ve been looking at me like I’m a final exam you wanna ace.”
“Maybe I do.”
She stops right in front of you, just close enough that you feel the warmth of her body. She smells like expensive perfume and coffee and something faintly spicy, like cinnamon and sin.
“You really wanna start something in my office?” she asks, raising a brow. “Because if you do… you better be ready to finish it.”
Your heart kicks up in your chest. “I’m ready.”
That’s all it takes.
She kisses you again like she’s been waiting for it — like she’s earned it. Her hand comes up to your jaw, tilting your face just right as her lips slot against yours, slow and deep. There’s no rush, no frantic movement, just heat.
Her other hand finds your waist, tugging you closer until your hips press into hers. You can feel the strength in her body, like she’s still in charge even though you’re the one who walked in.
You don’t mind. In fact, you kind of like it.
Melissa pulls back just enough to whisper against your mouth, “Been thinkin’ about this since midterms. You, sitting across from me with those wide eyes… acting all innocent.”
Your cheeks burn. “I was innocent.”
“Oh, hon,” she says, low and dark, “you still are. But you’re in good hands.”
She kisses you again — harder this time. And then she walks you backward, slow and steady, until the backs of your thighs hit her desk. She lifts you onto it like it’s nothing, like she’s done it before. Maybe she has — but you’re willing to bet not like this.
Her hands slide under your shirt, palms warm on your skin. She lifts the fabric slowly, like unwrapping a present, watching your face the whole time.
“You can tell me to stop,” she says, even as her fingers drift higher. “I’ll stop. Say the word.”
You shake your head. “Don’t stop.”
Her mouth finds your neck, kissing a line up to your ear as her fingers unbutton your top. “Good girl.”
You gasp at the praise. She smiles against your skin.
She takes her time. Touches you like she’s memorizing something, like she doesn’t want to miss a single inch. You moan when she presses kisses to your chest, and again when her hands slide between your thighs, coaxing you open without ever pushing too fast.
Melissa looks up at you, her voice a rasp, “You wanna be loud, baby, or quiet?”
“I—quiet,” you breathe. “Just in case.”
“Shame,” she says with a smirk, fingers brushing where you’re warmest, “I bet I’d like it when you’re loud.”
And then she proves it — slowly, thoroughly, until you’re shaking and clinging to her, your body arching off her desk, muffled whimpers falling against her shoulder.
When it’s over, she presses a kiss to your temple, smoothing your hair back like she’s not the one who just ruined you in the span of ten minutes.
You don’t speak for a while.
Then finally, you say, dazed, “You do this with all your former students?”
She smirks. “Just the ones who show up to office hours lookin’ like trouble.”

Tumblr media
Chaos- (She/Her)
Chaos is a gremlin. Is always interested in things that are high-energy and fast paced. She plays games on stream on fridays at 4:00 PM Pacific.

Mira - (She/They)
Mira is the organizer of the headspace. A crystal fairy who is able to duplicate herself up to up to 30 of her at once, she manages the entire headspace and the thoughts and memories of system members. Keeping the memory archive as a collective reference for us to go back to. They do tend to be able to handle multitasking better than the rest of us, but tends to stay out of the front unless she is needed (or wants to troll us, because when she enters the front we all see what she sees. All 30 of what she sees at once). She keeps everything organized.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media

Tumblr media
Nero - (Any Pronouns)
Nero is a chao. He is basically a Construct made by Nova in our headspace, and exists in here basically as an emotional support pet. But he is here. Initially a chao I just kept drawing with me in drawings for years, when I drew Nova with them it liked her so much that it decided it wanted him in the headspace. They like desserts and are often seen with different animal parts.
Tumblr media

From the AU of William and Loren - One Woman, A thousand ways:
Money can’t buy everything…but it sure does help
A/N - I believe that William and Loren still have a handful of readers that always seem to make their way back to these new blurb ideas - I am so appreciative of you (as I know I write longer blurbs) and those that stop by to take a look.
Summary - I hope that the weight of Loren's past journey comes through in this story. After an emotional conversation with her father, Loren reveals something life-changing to William which she struggles to process the weight of it all. William is there, steady as ever, seeing her in a way he never has before. What was meant to be a quiet, romantic night out turns into something much more—a milestone in their relationship, both in private and in public.
Word count - 5.1k
Warnings - swearing, general smut (rough)
(18+ only please)
──── ✧ ──────
March in Toronto. Never mind the climate changes where it can be certifiably balmy one day, and dip into a deep freeze the next. It’s also where there’s a newness, or at least excitement in the air after a long, cold, snowy winter, where seeing dry pavement instead of ice-covered narrow paths is almost exhilarating.
William could feel something different in the crisp late afternoon air—a mix of warmth and lightness, like finally, finally winter was on its way out. The season was shifting, and soon, the city scape would follow.
Right now, the landscape still looked drab—the trees barren, deep mud replacing grass, mounds of dirty snow piled in forgotten corners. But it wouldn’t be long before Toronto began to regenerate.
It wasn’t just the warmth of the afternoon sun on his shoulders. It wasn’t just the way that Pablo and Banksy trotted in front of him instead of looking like they were freezing and just wanted to go back inside. Even despite their loss to their division rivals, the Florida Panthers the night before…and after an especially grueling road trip where they hit every time zone across the league - William felt different inside.
Light.
Grateful.
Happy.
Oh…right.
In love.
The thought of her—Loren—in his condo, in his bed, waking up beside him—had a way of making everything feel easier.
He smiled to himself, thinking about how she’d nearly tripped bolting out the door that morning, half-dressed and scrambling for her bag, seconds from being late for her shift. He shook his head, a flicker of guilt surfacing—because, yeah, he might have been the reason she was running behind.
He had her pinned, his body between her legs, using that voice—the one that made her come undone every time.
He almost had her. Almost.
But just as he thought she’d cave, she groaned, slid out of bed, pouting as she muttered something about "the bills aren’t going to pay themselves."
Just as she hurriedly kissed him before stepping into the hallway, William gently caught her hand, pulling her back for one more second.
“And you’ll be back… what—around 5 or so? Don’t forget about tonight…”
Loren’s expression softened, her eyes shining as she gave him that look—as if I could.
She leaned in, pressing her lips to his in a soft, lingering kiss—dizzy with the thought of coming back to him later for their romantic evening. “5:00—hopefully earlier though.”
With one last quick kiss to his cheek, she half-scurried down the hallway, her voice carrying back to him as she disappeared around the corner. “I can hardly wait.”
──── ✧ ──────
When William returned to the condo from his walk, he wasn’t expecting Alex to pop out from the living room, waving him down the second he stepped through the door.
Alex pressed a finger to his lips, signaling for William to stay quiet, then motioned him over.
William had pieced together that Loren must have gotten off work early—she was in his bedroom—but before he could head down the hallway, Alex stopped him.
“I wouldn’t go in there if I were you,” Alex murmured. His voice was quiet, but his expression was serious. “I think she’s talking to her dad… something must have happened. I sort of heard her—like, she gasped, you know? Then she started crying… but I couldn’t really hear. She’s speaking French, so I have no idea what’s going on.”
William’s heart sank. His mind raced through every worst-case scenario as he listened, catching the faint sound of her sniffling between long pauses.
This wasn’t how tonight was supposed to go.
Tomorrow marked a year. One year since he’d met her, since she’d tripped over her own name in front of him at the Easter Seals Skate. One year since she’d stood by Gary, rubbing his back, calming him through a seizure while he could only stand there, helpless. One year since he’d found her again in the therapy room after the skate after something in his chest had told him he needed to check on her.
One year since their first phone call—her buzzed on red wine, teasing him from the bath that had turned cold on her, threatening him with a peep show as she stepped out to grab a towel shivering.
One fucking year.
He had made plans. A cozy, intimate dinner at top French restaurant, just the two of them. A chance to celebrate—not just what they had become, but everything it had taken to get here.
And now? Loren was in his bedroom, crying.
Fuck.
He looked at Alex, searching for some kind of answer, some hint at what he should do. But all he saw was the same look of dread and concern mirrored back at him.
Loren’s shaky voice drifted down the hallway.
William moved toward the door—left slightly ajar—but hesitated. Through the full-length mirror across the room, he could see Pablo and Banksy curled up on the bed. But Loren…
He couldn’t see her.
She must be on the small settee near the window.
He’s not even sure who she’s talking to - she’s got her headphones on so all he heard is her responses, barely above a whisper before all goes silent again. And then in the next moment, emotions grab her all over again as she weeps. He just breaks for her. He wants to go to her but she’s got to be on a video call and it would be ill-timed for him to suddenly appear on screen.
He softly pads back to the living room, the dogs suddenly following him from the bedroom. He sits on the opposite side of Alex who is in the midst of blowing some would-be sniper’s head clean off in his video game. William just stares blankly at the screen, his mind going in every direction imaginable.
Someone had to have died. Or badly hurt.
He couldn’t just sit there and watch Alex play Call of Duty. William stood back up and slowly ventured down the hallway.
Through the door, all he could make out was the occasional soft murmur—words he didn’t fully understand, but tones he had hear her use many times when speaking to friends and family.
“Ouin… papa…”
Sniffling. A heavy, shaking breath.
“Merci tellement.”
More silence, then another choked sound, like she was fighting back fresh tears.
“…on se reparle…”
A pause, then a shaky whisper—soft, but firm.
“Moi aussi… je t’aime, papa.”
A long, drawn-out breath. The sound of her swallowing back the last of her tears.
“…Je vais être correcte.”
William exhaled slowly, pressing his lips together, his own chest tightening as he reached for the door. He nudged it open just as she closed her laptop, curling into herself, her knees pulled tight to her chest. Her body trembled as fresh emotion overtook her, her face buried against her arms.
He had never seen her this upset. He didn’t know what to do or how to react, so he just just approached her, ready to hold her tight.
She looked up and saw William’s face, wrought with love and worry for her. She stood, stepping into his arms, grabbing the front of his hoodie like it was the only thing keeping her upright as she buried her face against his chest.
It comforted William in a way - even though he initially felt he didn’t know what to do, in reality, he did. He knew how to support her, to stroke her back, to wait and let her calm before asking the traditional “what’s wrong”. He knew she would tell him - she’d get there.
Loren eventually croaked out an exasperated apology, knowing that William had made plans for a special evening out. One that she had been so excited about - the fact that William Nylander, in the flesh, was taking her out to celebrate their first meeting. That was a dream unto itself.
As she peeled herself off of his chest, she was embarrassed too - she knew her eyes must be mere slits at this point from the puffiness. She looked at him - her deep brown eyes filled with such despair, her long lashes clumped together from tears.
William brushed a loose strand of hair from her damp cheek. “Did you want to lie down? Rest maybe?”
Loren shook her head no, but tiny smile peeked through. “Maybe you lie down and get comfortable on the bed…I…yeah. It’ll just be better for me to sit up to explain everything.”
They climbed onto his bed, William secretly relieved to stretch out, his chest loosening at the fact that she seemed ready to talk.
He held her hand, his thumb brushing over her knuckles. Loren took a deep breath, and exhaled slowly - almost getting choked up again in the process.
But she started anyway.
Loren took a slow, shaky breath, gripping William’s hand like it was the only thing keeping her from shattering.
"I know you know the story about the shit from years ago," she started, her voice still thick with the remnants of tears, "how when things got really bad for me, my parents stepped in. They took on tens of thousands of dollars of debt—loans, lines of credit, everything. Just took it all on like it was nothing."
Her lips pressed together, her fingers tightening slightly around his.
"It wasn’t nothing to me. It was humiliating. It was… crushing.”
She covered her face once more, and spoke into her hands, the oddly comforting feeling of her face being masked. “I remember - I just kept apologizing to him, you know?" her voice muffled, finally lifting her head. "For everything. For putting them in that position. For making them take on that debt."
Her fingers twisted into the hem of her sleeve. "And my dad… he just—he told me to stop."
She let out a soft, broken laugh. "He said, ‘Loren, just be thankful that we were in a position to help you.’”
William felt something tighten in his throat.
"Like it ‘it is what it is’ type of thing," Loren whispered. "Like I hadn’t upended their entire financial situation."
His jaw flexed. Because that’s what parents do, Loren. He wanted to say it, but he let her keep going.
"But that’s just how they are," she continued, her voice raw with emotion. "They would’ve taken it on a hundred times over if it meant keeping me above water.”
She exhaled sharply, shaking her head. "I felt like such a failure. I had nothing. I had no credit, no money, barely a plan. Just this house that I was desperate to hold onto. And they—", her breath caught, "they just absorbed it, like it wasn’t this massive, life-altering weight."
William didn’t say anything. He just let her speak, his thumb running slow, grounding circles over the back of her hand.
"When I finally started to fix things, I went to them and said I wanted to start paying them back," she continued. "Even if it was just twenty bucks one week, a hundred the next—whatever I could. I needed to. But they wouldn’t take it. They fought me on it, told me to just focus on getting back on my feet, not to worry about them."
She let out a hollow little laugh. "But you know me."
William’s lips curled into a smirk despite the heaviness in his chest. "You wore them down."
The hint of a sheepish smile flickering across her lips confirmed William’s statement. "Eventually, they started taking it."
She swallowed hard, her gaze drifting toward the ceiling, tears still streaming from the corners of her eyes, like she was replaying the conversation in her mind. "So today, I was just having a normal talk with my dad—about work, about the house. He asked me if I was even enjoying having it anymore, since I was constantly juggling jobs, constantly tired. I told him yeah, sometimes I get exhausted, but… it’s mine. And I have support—" she glanced at William, her grip tightening for half a second, "a really great support system that makes it all feel worth it."
William didn’t miss what she was really saying.
"That’s when he got this look on his face—like he had something big to tell me. And finally, I asked."
Loren let out another sharp breath, shaking her head like she still couldn’t believe it.
He told me they were going to wait until they got back from Costa Rica to tell me, but—" she swallowed hard, "every single dime I sent to them to pay them back? They never spent it. They set it aside."
William’s brows furrowed slightly, but he didn’t interrupt.
"My dad has always been smart with money—he’s got this old-school, salt-of-the-earth thing about him, but at the same time, he’s sharp. Corporate by day, working with his hands at night, you know?"
William nodded. He could picture it now, imagining the man that Loren was always so proud of.
"Years ago, one of his former apprentices—a guy he mentored—developed this software product, something small - but it was apparently like nothing else out there. My dad, out of his own pocket, decided to invest. And when I started paying him back, he took that money and threw it into the investment, too."
William’s stomach flipped. He could feel where this was going.
"It - the software - sold," Loren whispered, "to a massive company. My portion—just from what my dad put in for me—came back at just over half a million dollars."
Her voice broke on the last word, her eyes reflecting half-disbelief, half-panic.
"William, I feel like I just won the fucking lottery."
She pulled her hands away from his, burying her face into them, her shoulders shaking with fresh, silent tears.
When she looked at William again, her eyes were glossed over, filled with such overwhelming remorse. And worry.
"I don’t know what to do," she admitted, voice barely above a whisper. "I have lived in this state of stress for so long, this constant survival mode. Even if I wasn’t actively thinking about it, it was always there, like it was part of me now. And now, suddenly, I’m just—" her hands dropped hard into her lap, "free from it all now?"
William’s sudden clarity on what had always been deep in Loren’s psyche rocked him. He never could have understood that this was how she functioned every single day.
"A million things are running through my head," she continued, "but mostly… I’m afraid."
William’s brows pulled together. "Afraid of what?"
"Afraid of having it. Afraid of spending it. I have lived like this for so long—scrimping, falling short, working until I can’t think straight, stretching every single dollar. Buying the 50% off produce that wasn't entirely spoiled just to have something nutritious. If I didn’t splurge on anything - no matter how small - I was still lucky just to live paycheck to paycheck. Watching everyone else settle down, build their lives, while I wondered if I could even keep my house for another year, with every year getting more and more expensive."
Her voice cracked, and she inhaled sharply.
"I’ve just begun to understand that living like that….the stress becomes addictive almost. And now that it’s lifted—just gone—I’m petrified of having this money and wasting a single cent of it."
Silence stretched between them, thick with the weight of it all.
And William—who had never had to worry about money, who had always been comfortable—never could truly know what she had gone through.
This was who Loren truly was. He suddenly saw so much of what makes her unique.
She could have immediately run out and bought something extravagant. She could have started planning vacations, upgrades, indulgences.
But instead? She was here. Emotionally distraught in his bed, terrified of wasting an opportunity.
In that moment, he finally felt as though he truly saw who she is, and he had never been more in awe, more proud, or more in love with her than he was right then.
The magnitude of her new reality hung between them. He gazed at her as she attempted to wipe away tears from her swollen eyes, but they were unrelenting. William knew she was probably embarrassed for letting all of her emotion out, and she herself would admit to her own vanity with wanting to mask how bad she looked in that moment.
William, however, would vehemently disagree - she still looked amazing to him with her red, congested nose and puffy eyes and lips. He remembered their plans, but he didn’t want to force her to go out if she wasn’t up for it. After all, the following week, there were a number of milestones that they could celebrate... one year since their first kiss, their first date, their first…
William broke the silence. The warmth of his hand radiated through her as he stroked her thigh. “We can cancel the reservation - stay in…whatever you want to do is fine by me.”
“I’d like to go? That is if you still wanna go out with me and my puffy eyes and runny nose,” Loren cracked a smile but her head still hung low.
William slid towards her to try and lay within her line of sight. “We’ll bring a box of Kleenex.”
She chuckled while still looking down at William's sleeve that she’d been fiddling with. “I just need a hose, a sandblaster and two toothpicks to prop my eyes open and I should be good to go.” She sniffled, smiling at his iconic chuckle. “We’ve got time…I should be able to pull it together before we leave.”
He melted as he looked at her. She's just so good.
Then her expressions lightened. "Plus, dinner...this time, is on me - even the tip...” she pauses to lift his hand to kiss it, “as long as you give ME the - you know - later. Deal?”
He wasn’t going to argue with her about the bill, or the tip - he knows how fucking stubborn she is.
She’s gonna get way more than the tip from me anyway he smiled to himself.
──── ✧ ──────
Given the milder evening temperature and the ample time they still had before their reservation, William and Loren decided to walk to the restaurant. They headed north, taking their time, breathing in the crisp evening air, relishing the simple joy of walking hand in hand, out in the open.
Loren had never seen this part of the city before—where old Victorian homes stood in quiet rows, their bay windows illuminated softly from within. The streets felt calmer here, hidden away from the usual city noise, almost as thought she was magically transported to the small town where she grew up.
They talked, like they always did, their conversations flowing effortlessly, weaving from one thought to the next like water winding through tributaries. It never mattered what the subject was—with them, everything felt noteworthy.
And William? He was transfixed.
He had seen Loren smile a thousand times before—big, bright, beautiful, the kind of thing that gave her that presence which everyone noticed - everyone except her, of course. But tonight? Tonight, there was something different about it.
When she emerged at the condo, fresh faced and looking effortlessly striking, he had noticed it then. There was a new lightness to her. William could have never understood the full weight of what she had been under all this time, but now he saw the difference. This feeling from the gift she just received was likely something Loren never thought was attainable. It was as though she had long made her peace that she may always have that level of stress nipping at her heels.
It wasn’t that she was bubbling over with excitement or boasting about what this windfall meant for her. If anything, she was just… more at ease. Calm. Fully present.
She asked William questions about whatever subject they had wandered into, her voice soft, unrushed. When they stopped at a traffic light, she turned in toward him, pressing herself close, breathing him in.
Like The Eagles song, a peaceful, easy feeling.
They arrived at the restaurant with minutes to spare before their reservation time—immediately being greeted by the host and efficiently guided to a tucked-away, intimate table. One that gave William and Loren a certain level of privacy.
Still, eyes followed him.
It wasn’t overwhelming, but noticeable. Some patrons watched from a distance, sneaking glances over their wine glasses. Others, a little braver, waited for the right moment—or what they considered the right moment, to try and get a few minutes of William's time.
As Loren looked on, she took it all in stride.
She smiled as she watched William interact with a small group that flagged him down on his way back from the restroom. Effortless, warm, polite. This was just part of being out in public with him.
Their server returned before William had, leaning in slightly as he murmured, “Apologies for the interruptions, Ms. Girard.” He gave her a small, knowing smile. “We remind patrons that Mr. Nylander should be allowed a quiet evening out… but, well—” he exhaled wryly, shaking his head. “Some listen. Some don’t.”
Loren was stunned at first that he mentioned her name, but quickly gathered her senses. She grinned at the server, nodding her head slightly. “I appreciate that very much—he does tend to cause a bit of a stir.”
She glanced back at William, nearly chuckling when she caught that look on his face. The one where he thought he’d found an out… but hadn’t quite made it.
It wasn’t long before the co-owner/manager of the restaurant appeared and engaged with William and the patrons at the table. Like a magician, she delighted the table with a smooth offering of a post-dessert liqueur, and handily relieved William ushering him back to the table personally.
Extremely pleasant with a deep understanding of service with a smile, the manager ensured that both Loren and William were not simply satisfied with their experience, more that they would consider making her restaurant a staple in their dining repertoire. “Not that I want to make Sugo’s worry about stealing their favourite patron, of course,” she smiled while William and Loren laughed at the reference. William was very open with his love for the small Italian restaurant not far from where he lives.
The dinner, the wine, the ambience - it had all been flawless. Even the walk there, William just loved the comfort that he felt with Loren. And even as much as he felt an undeniable ease with her, she managed to still surprise him with the way her mind seemed to anticipate certain situations and every possible outcome.
When it was time for the bill, William peered around just to see if their server was within range to do the typical “we’re ready for the bill” eye contact.
Loren saw this immediately, and gently reminded William that if he’s looking for the bill, he needn’t bother…she was looking after it all. The only thing she wanted was the tip that only he could give her. She actually squirmed a little in her seat when she said it, smiling softly to herself.
The server soon arrived with the copy of the already settled bill, and thanked Loren for her generosity.
William was undoubtedly confused as he looked at Loren, and then the server, but followed Loren’s lead with thanking him again for such an incredible time.
Once back out on the street, the two found a small dark alcove for a kiss that was anything but quick.
William was still puzzled about the bill. “I don’t get it - when…how - like, you paid, right?”
Loren giggled in her response. “Yes, I paid…when you were in the washroom earlier. I gave them my card, I explained that I didn’t want it to be noticeable to everyone around us that I was paying…people get nosy and make assumptions and I didn’t want you to get any flack about me covering dinner instead of you.”
The price of a hundred dinners was worth the smile he gave Loren.
──── ✧ ──────
The next morning, Loren gripped almost helplessly the cushions on the couch in William’s bedroom as he railed her hard from behind. Even if she tried to muffle her high-pitched gasps into the softness of the cushions, the relentless slapping of skin on skin would still be clearly heard. William didn’t seem to care who heard them that morning - he needed her raw and uncensored.
William knew how to be rough, dominant and possessive in a way that exemplified his deep-seated desire for Loren.
Normally he wouldn’t engage in sex this strenuous before morning practice but he couldn’t help himself when he awoke that morning and saw her. Her beautiful nakedness on full display after he had seemingly stolen the covers off of her in the night. Clearly she was unaffected as she lay sleeping in almost the the perfect Playboy sex goddess pose.
So he showed her exactly what she did - does - to him.
Her first orgasm was quick - the second one hit in timely succession. William knew he didn’t have much longer so as fucking amazing as she felt, time now was not on his side.
He had left handprints where he had been gripping the fleshy tops of her ass cheeks and as he pulled out from her, he kissed each mark, knowing that bruises would eventually dot the area.
The slide into being a "gentleman" was short-lived as he lifted and flipped her onto her back, her ass now on top of the couch cushion she had been grabbing mere moments ago. Her body was securely balanced, enough to allow her to lean over the back of the couch, her legs open, tits fully accessible to William’s mouth - her ribcage and flattened stomach adding to her sensual descent into pure bliss.
Loren almost let out the most feral sound when she looked at him standing in front of her, his cock, the one she had told him was perfectly designed for the female anatomy, jutted and bounced as he knelt on the couch before her.
He held and controlled her lower body as he drove into her, his hips rolling firm and rapid. She held onto his forearms, spreading her legs wider, watching the protruding veins in neck as he grit his teeth from the intesity. It wasn't long before the first wave of his orgasm gripped his insides. His mouth dropped open, letting out a moan that was gruff and staccato. He finally let out a loud growl as his body movements became erratic, finally unloading deep inside of her.
After a few moments of just feeling each other as their breathing slowed, they knew they had to get back to reality. Both begrudgingly meandered to William’s ensuite and stepped into the shower together.
“I guess that makes up for me passing out on you last night then?” Loren smiled, leaning her head back under the steady stream of water.
“You were tired - do you even remember me putting you to bed?” William asked while lathering up his broad and sinfully beautiful body.
Loren chuckled, shaking her head “No.”
Then the moment that William had been waiting for - telling Loren what happened when he took the dogs out after they returned from dinner.
“So….I uh, talked to your Dad last night.” His tone almost sounded sheepish - like when he looks like he’s toying with the media as thought he has the juiciest gossip.
Loren head snapped around, her mouth falling open while almost forming a smile.
William chuckled at her surprise. “I grabbed your phone by mistake when i walked out the door - thanks for putting it where I usually put mine, by the way,” he teased.
Loren rolled her eyes, unimpressed with the slight dig.
“Yeah, so I figured out my mistake pretty quickly when I heard your chime…I was like what the fuck…looked at the screen and saw a Facetime request from ‘Papa’…I nearly shit,” William recounted the moment. “I thought about ignoring it but - I ripped off the bandaid and answered it.”
Loren’s eyes went wide as she listened. “…..And?? What happened - what did he say??”
William began by stating the obvious, which he knew would drive Loren wild.
“Obviously, he was not expecting me to answer,” William laughed.
“…Wiliam!” Loren mockingly demanded him to cut the bullshit and stop winding her up.
“All right - Jeeesus, calm down,” he feigned annoyance, just wanted to give her one more playful jab. “I explained I grabbed your phone by accident…he just said it was good that we got to finally meet. He asked how you were - he knew how upset you were on the call with him and he just wanted to check on you.” William’s eyes softened as he pulled her against him. “Your mom even popped into the call - fuck, you look most like her but I see your dad in you too.” He kissed the tip of her nose.
William continued. “We chatted about hockey a little - he made a couple of comments about the wishing I played for the Habs…but he said at least we can both hate Ottawa, and he hope I score one tonight for ‘his Loren’.”
“Oh my God - he said that?” Loren chuckled shaking her head.
“I said I always try to - I told him I started doing a little thing for you if I score.”
“William - you do not…,” Loren laughed.
“You don’t believe me? If I score, I’ll do it tonight and I’ll look straight at you.”
Loren nodded, unconvinced as she mouthed “Oh, yeah - okay….”
William shifted Loren so he could join her under the shower head to rinse. “So yeah, we can cross ‘Meeting your parents’ off the list. It was really good though…we talked for about 10 minutes. I wanted to tell you but you were asleep……,” William paused for a moment. “And then I had other things on my mind this morning before bringing up your dad…I didn’t want to have him in my head while I was….”
“Violating me?” Loren grinned, quirking an eyebrow.
William slowly nodded with a smile, and kissed her softly as Loren slowly lowered her arms around his waist, pulling him against her.
“Ugh - you better stop - you’re making him hard again…,” William said wryly. "Chief thinks you're great and all, but I don't think he'll take too kindly to me showing up already worn out before even getting my skates on."

Character description
TW: a light description of gore, height difference, serial story, murder, description of murder , assault , stabbing knife (reader receives), everything takes place in a criminal Russian city of the 90s .
Tumblr media
Russia, 1990. June 20th. 15:00.
You're sitting at home, and there's a news report on TV in the background...It seems like a few more people were shot this week... hmm, that's weird..This is the 3rd time this month. In general, more than 20 people have already been shot dead.. And a curfew was announced. This was still not enough. Now you'll have to stop your nighttime walks in the park... And it's still hot outside. It was +21° in the afternoon . And you made the right decision - to go buy yourself ice cream and kvass! You put on your sneakers, cap, and went out in what you were wearing-a regular sleeveless T-shirt and black athletic shorts. And of course, not forgetting about the money, you headed towards the store. And since it was already evening, the daytime heat dropped. You went into the store, and after greeting a familiar saleswoman, you bought yourself a simple ice cream from GOST and 0.5 kvass. That's how yours started little walk, drinking kvass and eating cool ice cream. Everything you need in this heat. You finished your ice cream and sat down on a bench, finishing your kvass. But you've been approached by highly anticipated, but at the same time unpleasant, gopnik personalities. There were about 5 of them. And they are not a surprise in your city, perhaps their "relatives" committed those recent murders..
"Hey, dear, do you have a mobile phone? I need to call my mother HAHAHA."
Said one, and then laughed with his group of friends. But after being refused, he abruptly became serious and reached into his pocket. And then, he fished out a knife.. Damn, things are bad. You quickly got up and ran away, but a quick stab in the back caused you to fall with a loud expletive. And just as you were about to get up, you heard a gunshot, screams and screams of other gopnik and saw the body... The body of the bastard who stabbed you in the back...Someone shot him in the head, and part of his brain got on you. His friends started running away in a panic, but they suffered the same fate... Those screams.. The moans of pain and the smell of metal prompted you faint.
Tumblr media
You woke up to someone shaking your shoulders. You opened your eyes, and she was a tall and very masculine woman. Short black hair , tanned skin , strong sinewy arms , countless scars and a red eye . Yes, not the eyes, eye. Because the other one is covered with an bandage like a pirate's. And she smells ... Expensive alcohol, sea, and metal... It 's strange , but it 's so attractive ..
When you got up and more or less came to your senses, you saw an ambulance and a couple of police cars. This woman helped you get up and sat next to you on a bench. And when you felt your back, you felt the bandage. I think you've already received first aid. And soon a policeman came up to you.
"Comrades girls , may I ask what the fuck happened here??"
And then you answered.
"I.. I don't know. I was attacked by some gopniks gang, one of them, as you can see, stabbed me in the back, but someone shot them.. I didn't really see anything myself...."
The policeman grunts with displeasure. And then he speaks again . But this time he's talking to the woman next to you. By the way , she looked about 40 years old . but she looked amazing... Stop stop stop. What are you talking about...?? She's old enough to be your mother. But we digress.
"And you, did you see something?"
" I only came up when this girl was unconscious, and these boys were already dead. Unfortunately, I can't help you. "
And your "interrogation" continued for a long time, and finally you were released. But this woman, as it turned out, her name is Gaetana Gati, an Italian and a former medic, volunteered to escort you.
" Just a second, I need to buy something at the store, can you please wait? "
You just nod and sit down on the bench. Hopefully, the same situation that happened recently won't happen again. And soon she returns , handing you a bar of chocolate , a bag of oranges , and a pack of imported coffee ... And it all looked so expensive...
" Here you go. I can only guess what an emotional shock this is for you. You . You're a young girl with her whole life ahead of her. Take it, don't be modest.. "
No matter how much you denied it, but Gaetana, having escorted you to your apartment, still gave you these "gifts" and wished you a good day and left. It was already 19:00, and the curfew was about to start , and you decided to go to bed. After all, so much has happened today that words cannot describe in a week. And Gaetana is, you're kind of attracted to her... And it scares you. And with such thoughts, you went to bed and fell asleep almost immediately .
Tumblr media
Ololol , I hope you enjoyed it, babes, see you all in the next post, bros !!!

Take Me to the Lakes | E.M x Reader ~ 4/6
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
CW: Oral (f receiving), more angst, classism? 18+ only
wc: 5.2k
Master list
You woke up extra bright and early the following day with a smile. As you opened your eyes, the memories of last night came flooding back to mind. Even though it was only 6:00 a.m., you walked to the showers with an extra pep. 
The steamy memories of last night flooded your mind, and even with the ice-cold water hitting your body, it couldn’t wash away the heat of Eddie’s touch. It was like he was burned into your skin, the way his calloused fingertips glided over you, how he gripped your hair, how he gave you the most earth-shattering orgasm. 
Your body craved him, you missed him, and you wished you could have slept next to him and had him hold you all night long. Everything you had wanted for so long was finally at your fingertips. You just had to reach out and grab it. 
Reality finally hit you when you shivered; you could no longer bear the icy water. The bitter morning air made everything that much colder, and the dilemma of having something that would cover all of the love bites Eddie gave you was coming to the forefront of your mind. 
You knew you would swim today and chose your baby blue one-piece suit. It covered everything on your stomach but was a different story from the chest up. 
The highest cut tops you owned were crewnecks and hoodies; there was no chance you’d wear a hoodie all day when the forecast was 30°C + weather. So you opted for your forest green Camp Murdock crewneck tee. It didn’t cover half of the love bites Eddie had made, but it was the best you could do without dying from heat stroke. You paired the shirt with some high-waisted light wash cut-off jean shorts. They made your ass look fantastic, and you wanted Eddie to be drooling over you. 
You slowly forgot about your salacious affairs from the previous night as you focused on picking up Eddie a coffee, like every morning. You knocked on the door thrice before entering.
“I hope everyone is decent,” you giggled, entering the cabin.
To your surprise, it was empty, so you walked back to the mess hall with the two cups of coffee in hand and joined the other girls at your usual table, and you took a seat beside Nancy.
“Have you seen the guys yet?” You asked. 
“Missing lover boy already?” Cassie teased. 
“Maybe.” you smile. 
“Here they come,” Robin pointed to them as they came from across the room.
You see Eddie's first, and Steve, Billy, and Ashton are trailing behind him. They were making their way to the serving counter, and you caught Eddie’s eye and gave a small wave. He smiles and winks at you, and you swear your heart has stopped beating.
You turned back, unable to hide your facial expressions, and the girls started to mock you.
“Oh, Eddie, I love you so much; you’re handsome and funny.” Robin batted her eyes, and you couldn’t help but laugh at the ridiculousness of it all. 
Nancy chimed in after, making the most obscene moans unbothered that we were in a room full of people. “Oh, Eddie!! Fuck me harder, you have the biggest coc—” She was cut off by someone clearing their throat. 
Your heads whipped around to see all four guys standing with jaws hanging open, but Eddie stood there with the biggest shit-eating grin.
“Good morning, ladies.” He chuckled and sat down beside you. The rest of them walked over to sit down on the other side.
“Morning,” you and the girls mumbled, a bit embarrassed by their actions. 
Eddie leaned into you and whispered a “Good morning, beautiful” under his breath so no one else heard. A shiver ran up your spine as you felt his warm breath hit your ear. 
“So, uh, the fuck was that all about?” Billy asked, bringing up the elephant in the room. 
“What do you mean?” Cassie innocently asked. 
“You know exactly what he means.” Ashton chimed in. 
“Nancy, you’re the one fucking Ed?” Billy accused. 
“What?! Absolutely not! No offence, Lancelot,” She defended.
“Non-taken,” he laughed, and a discreet hand trailed up your back, sending a shiver down your spine. 
“But you know who is?” Billy questioned. 
“Maybe, but it’s not for us to tell.” Robin’s eyes trailed to you as she spoke, making all the guys, including Eddie, look at you. 
Would Eddie be mad you shared details about last night? 
“I’m hungry. Who’s hungry? Clover? Moose? Oh! Eddie, here is your coffee.” Trying to deflect, you passed over the coffee to him but accidentally tipped it, dumping it all over you. 
The coffee was still scolding hot; your first reaction was to stand and take the burning material off your body, knowing your bathing suit would still keep you modest. 
“Oh god, I’m so sorry,” You apologized to Eddie.
 While still looking down at your arms to make sure there was no burn forming it was weirdly silent at the table, so I look up to staring eyes from all the guys. 
“Well, that didn’t take long to figure out.” Steve laughed under his breath. 
“What?” You question him.
“I knew I was right!” Ashton cheered and leaned over the table to give Eddie a high-five. 
“What?” You asked again.
“Bambi,” Nancy whispers to you while circling her chest with her pointer finger. 
Your hands instinctively shoot up to cover yourself as much as possible. 
Eddie takes off his flannel and drapes it over your shoulders, not that it dose anything more, but the gesture is nice. 
“Guess the cat is out of the bag.” Eddie wraps an arm around your shoulder and leans in to kiss you on the temple.
“Fucking finally, guys, it took you long enough.” Steve smiled.
“Jesus, dude, we thought you were marked up pretty bad; you fucking wrecked her.” Ashton laughed.
You buried your head into Eddie’s shoulder, but that only exposed the hickeys more because my hair fell behind your shoulders.
Billy abruptly got up and stormed off from the table without a word. 
“What was that all about?” Robin asked. 
“He’s butt hurt, is all; he’ll get over it.” Ashton shook his head, finally diving into his breakfast. 
You felt a little bad for Billy, but you told him time and time again that it was never going to happen. 
Eddie pulls you closer, hugging you tightly from the side. 
“Sorry, Princess. I couldn’t help myself.” He gives you four little pecks on your cheeks before standing up to get more napkins for the forgotten coffee that spilled on the table.
“Oh, gross. Please don’t tell me you’ll be that couple now.”  Robin rolled her eyes. 
“No, don’t worry, we won’t be like that during work hours; there is no way I’m losing this job.” You laughed, shaking your head. 
-
Due to your different schedules today, you didn’t see Eddie much after breakfast, but you ran into Billy again while swapping activities at the arts and crafts station. 
“So, you and Edward.” He said his name with so much venom in his voice. 
“Yeah, we, uh, it just kind of happened.” You stray your eyes, not wanting to look at him. 
You hated that you were the reason he felt this way. Sure, he’s been an ass, but he was still your friend, the guy from the last summer is still in there somewhere. 
“Well, whatever.” He bumped your shoulder as he passed you.
“Hey!” You yelled at him, but he kept sulking. 
“Coyote!” You grabbed his shoulder so he could turn around. 
“I don’t know what your problem is, but I told you repeatedly that this would never happen." You point between you and him, "I’m sorry, but we will only ever be just friends.”
Billy rolled his eyes and stomped off like a child. 
Then, seemingly out of nowhere, Steve approaches you,
“Don’t worry about him; he’ll get over it. He’s only upset because you chose Eddie over him. It’s not like he’s in love with you. He just wanted to get his dick wet.” 
“You sure about that? He seems hurt?” you questioned. 
“Yeah, don’t sweat it, Bambi; watch by this time tomorrow. He will be going after Heather or Veronica.” he laughed. 
“If you say so…” I still was unsure but couldn’t let this Billy thing hang over your head; it wasn’t your fault.
-
To say Eddie is infatuated with you is an understatement.
Who would have thought Hawkins' very own Princess would also be a freak in the sheets for him? Well, it's not totally freaky. Eddie could have pushed it more, but he decided he best not. He didn’t want to scare you off before you ever got started.
He couldn’t stop thinking about last night. Your moans and gasps played on a loop in his memory, the sweet dip in your voice when you screamed for him to fuck you, begging for his cock. He's been wound up all day because of it and needed you.
Eddie didn’t know how he would survive not being able to touch you for the rest of the day until after the bonfire. Time slowed down without you; it felt like forever before Eddie got a chance to sit beside you at the fire.
He had brought his guitar, remembering you said musicians were your type, hoping to score more brownie points. 
Everyone sang the camp songs Eddie played, and then he opened to play some real songs. Eddie was mindlessly strumming when he caught you staring at his hands while biting your lip. He knew he had you right where he wanted. 
You and Eddie didn’t get to talk much after last night’s escapades, but he wanted to stay in that shabby cabin with you all night. He needed to know your favourite TV show, your favourite food, how old you were when you lost your first tooth, your preference for ice cream or popsicles, and your favourite band. Eddie needed to know every detail about you. 
“Hello, earth to Eddie.” You giggled. 
Oh god that laugh could heal a million broken hearts
“Sorry, princess, zoned out a minute there.” Eddie stood up, seeing as though everyone was going to bed for the night.
“Hey, you guys coming to the mess hall after we put the campers to bed? We are playing cards.” Steve asks. 
You and Eddie looked at one another, and you both knew you wanted to be alone with one another. 
“Nah, man, we will call it an early night,” Eddie winked. 
“Gross,” Robin said under her breath. 
“Oh come on, don’t be like that, Bird,” You pouted, and all Eddie wanted to kiss it right off your face. 
“You better be back by curfew, I am not covering for you again.” Steve pointed at Eddie. 
“Okay, man, jeez, what are you, my uncle? What next? You’re going to give me the safe sex talk?” Eddie laughs.
“Could you be any louder?” You gently smack his chest. 
“You’re cute when you’re mad.” He takes you by the waist and shoves your bodies together.
“Eddie, not here! I don’t want to get in trouble.” You giggled, but he couldn’t help himself. 
After last night's encounters, Eddie couldn’t keep his hands off you any longer. He crouched lower to pick you up, threw you over his shoulder, and ran to Cabin 7. 
You squealed as Eddie dropped you face up on the bed. Then you giggled when he pinned your arms over your head and onto the bed. Eddie finally got to kiss you for the first time since last night. Your lips were warm and soft and tasted like marshmallow, chocolate, and strawberry chapstick.
You moaned into his mouth and couldn’t help but grind your hips on Eddie's firm crotch.
“I don’t know how much time we will have, princess. I can’t have any of the others seeing you like this.” Eddie spoke into your neck, gently kissing over the marks that he had left the previous night. 
"Oh, we're a little jealous, are we?" You giggled again, but Eddie was not joking. "I would rip any guy's head off who walked in here." His tone was stern, and he heard your breath hitch. 
Eddie hoped he didn’t scare you, but that thought faded when you grabbed the back of his head to pull him into another delicious kiss. You got bold and slipped your tongue into his mouth, and you tried your best to fight for dominance; he let you win for a little while, but you both knew you would submit. 
You waited no time to take off your sweatshirt and bra, and Eddie’s hands were on you the second your skin was exposed to him. He slid his hands down your torso and across the soft, pillowy skin of your tummy until he hit the waistband of your jeans. 
“These have got to go,” He says as he unbuttoned them. 
You watched as Eddie got off the bed and knelt on the floor before tugging off your pants. You gave a little yelp when he then grabbed both of your ankles and pulled you towards him until your legs were dangling off the edge. 
“Open your legs for me, baby. Don’t get shy on me now.” He spoke as he pressed his hands to your inner thighs. 
How was someone’s skin so soft all the time? Eddie squished his fingers into your soft inner thighs. 
You couldn’t help but want to hide, raising your hands to cover your face, but Eddie wasn’t having it. 
“Don’t do that.” he crawled back up your body to move your hands. “I need to see you, pretty girl; I’ve been waiting for this all day.” 
You can’t help but whine at his words. Never had you been with a guy who liked to talk this much during sex. 
“Don’t be a brat; you don’t want me to show you what brats get when they’re punished,” Eddie whispers in your ear before slinking down your embody once again, ready to devour you.
A visible shiver runs through your body, and Eddie can see the tiny bumps lining your skin. 
“What if I want to find out?” You bite your lip, and Eddie’s head shoots back up with lust in his eyes.
“Oh, baby, I wouldn’t ask about what you’re not ready for?” He threatened. 
Eddie didn’t give you any time to respond, he couldn’t wait any longer, the smell of your arousal was controlling his needs. 
He started by making out with your lower lips before he slowly broke through your slit, and your breath hitched when he circled his tongue on your clit. 
Your gasps and moans were music to Eddie’s ears. 
Eddie continued making you sing for him as he buried his face into your pussy. He loved your taste; it was like he was addicted and he needed all of you. 
You moan as Eddie works his tongue from your clit down to your hole. As he sticks his tongue inside you, you can’t help but grind your hips into his face.
“Eddie, please, it’s so good, please.” 
You feel Eddie pin down your hips to keep you from moving. His hold was firm. It didn’t take much effort on his end to keep you still; your difference in size was to his advantage. 
Eddie continued and worked his way back up to your clit; he could see you were close; he watched and listened to your heavy breathing and moans that were getting louder and louder.
“Come on, pretty girl, cum for me. I know you can do it” Eddie clamped back down on your clit only a few more seconds he will have you coming all over his face. 
“Eddie! ohmy—!” you scream.
“Hey there, you guys ar—OHMYGOD.” Ashton screams and covers his eyes.
-
Eddie has you right in your sweet spot; the pressure is building and building, you’re so close just a few more seconds and  
“Eddie ohmy—“ you thoughts are cut off because you’re cumming!  You’re cumming so hard, you’re unaware of the other person who entered the room. Once you no longer feel Eddie’s touch, you hear another voice that is not Eddie. 
“—MYGOD”
“Get out!” You hear Eddie scream as you come down from your orgasmic bliss. 
As you’re still trying to catch your breath you see Eddie marching towards the door. 
Oh god, someone came in; one of the guys saw you! You quickly scramble to hide your naked body under the sleeping bag. 
Eddie is already out the door, but you can still hear everything since he didn’t close it. 
“I didn’t see anything, man, I promise! Dude, I’m sorry, no one told me you were in there!” Ashton was pleading with Eddie. 
“You sure you saw nothing, man?” Eddie’s voice was gruff. 
“Yes! I swear, dude!” 
“Give me half an hour…” Eddie walked back into the cabin and slammed the door shut.
“Fucking hell, that’s why they laughed when they told me to go get the bug spray” you hear Ashton talking to no one in particular. 
You giggled, but Eddie’s face was stone cold, even if it glistened with your juices. 
“Oh, come on, Eds, it was an accident.” You sat up on your knees, the sleeping bag sliding back down. 
That caught Eddie’s attention; his eyes filled with lust once again as you started to graze your hands across your breasts, kneading them and teasing your nipples. 
Eddied stalked your way. He ducked under the top bunk. 
“What did I say I’d do if any man saw you the way I see you?” he growled in your ear. 
You didn’t answer him; you didn’t want to play these games. Instead, you kissed him to shut him up, tasting yourself on his lips. You brought your hands to the back of his head, lightly digging your fingertips into his curls, but Eddie pulled away abruptly. 
“What did I—“ WACK “—Oh fuck!” 
Eddie reached for the back of his head, and you couldn’t help but laugh at the fact Eddie hit his head on the top bunk.
“Oh, baby, I’m sorry. Are you okay?” You get out between fits of giggles.
“Yea, I think I'll be okay. That hurt like a motherfucker.” The hit to the head seemed to snap him back to regular Eddie. 
“Want me to kiss it better?” You bat your eyes. 
“I can think of another head that you can kiss better.” He wiggled his eyebrows and carefully crawled into the bed with you, avoiding the top bunk.
You were wrapped up together, and the mood had shifted. It was light and fun, playful and giggly. 
After giving him what you believe to be the best blowjob of his life you got so comfortable cuddling you had fallen asleep. 
Eddie shook you awake, you had only been sleeping about ten minutes. Eddie hated that he had to disturb you, you looked so peaceful, but the guys would be back any minute. You reluctantly got dressed but plopped back down on the bed. 
You rested your head on Eddie’s shoulder just as you heard a tentative knock on the door. 
“It’s safe. You can come in.” You hummed. 
“I’m so sorry ‘bout that, guys. Fuck.” Ashton apologized profusely. 
“It’s okay, Rooster!” You laughed. Eddie gave you a look of warning, but you brushed it off. 
You see Steve and Billy followed in behind him, hysterically laughing. 
“I can’t believe you actually walked in on them, dude,” Billy laughed; you could see tears coming from his eyes. It wasn’t that funny.  
“This your wise idea?” Eddie asked Steve. 
“Nah, man, it was all Coyote, but it’s pretty funny; poor guy had no idea.” Steve laughed. 
“Oh, I see; Billy just wanted to cock block us…” You rolled my eyes. 
“You think this is funny, man? Do you think it’s funny for a girl to be walked in on, exposed and vulnerable? You didn’t stop thinking about how this would make Y/N feel.” You watch, stunned, as Eddie gets up from the bed and walks over to Billy. 
Two things: one, he used your full name, which made your thighs clench in a way you never thought possible, and two, Eddie was getting in Billy’s face to defend your honour. He was possessive and protective, and you couldn’t deny you were getting wet… again. 
“Woah, dude, it was just a joke.” Billy shot his hands up in defence. 
You stand up off the bed to help as Steve pull Eddie back. 
“You need to work on your temper, bro,” Steve whispers to him. 
“Yea, well, I don’t need assholes disrespecting my girl.” He spat. 
Your heart fluttered, and your breath hitched at his words. You hadn’t had time to speak about anything of that nature; you were too busy exploring one another in a different way. But Eddie said you were his.
“Your girl, huh?” Billy scoffs. 
“Your girl?” You asked meekly. 
Eddie's face softened as he turned to face you. His cheeks reddened. 
“Yeah, I mean, if you wanna be?” he asked, reaching for your hands. 
You jump into his arms; he catches you, spins you around, and plants a fat, wet kiss on your lips, ignoring everyone else in the room.
“Ugh, get a room.” “So gross.” “Stop my eyes!” The three of them complained all at once, but you didn’t care. Eddie was finally yours.
As you slid down the front of Eddie’s body as he put you down, you could feel him getting hard again. 
“Walk me back to my cabin?”
“Your wish is my command, Princess.” He bowed with his arm pointed to the door. 
The walk to the cabin was not long, only about fifteen feet between Cabin 7 and Cabin 8. However, it seemed to take Eddie and you ten times longer to get there. Stolen kisses turned into make-out sessions and more groping.
Eddie had you pinned up against the back of the cabin, hands down your pants, whispering dirty words about how he’ll have you begging for mercy while he fills you with his fat cock, until you saw the light of a flashlight. The night watch was on duty; you realized it was past curfew and needed rest. 
“Goodnight, baby girl, sweet dreams,” Eddie left you with a head-spinning kiss. 
-
You felt like you were living in a fairytale; everything was perfect—maybe too perfect. Maybe you were being too cynical; it’s only been two weeks, and you shouldn’t think about when the ball will drop… 
Your past relationship wasn’t the best. Then again, you were in the 10th grade and didn’t know anything about relationships, nor did he. You were never cheated on, but you never felt like he was there for you when you needed him the most. 
It also didn't help that your parents disapproved of him. His family was not up to their standards, which you never understood. You were middle class, and your father worked very hard to support you and your mother.
Both of you had been kids, so it's not like you were getting married. But the pressures you felt from your parents and the lack of support in that relationship made your mind wander. You felt like you were just arm candy and nothing more.
There was no depth betwen you and your ex, and you were scared that would happen with Eddie. You have wanted to be with Eddie for so long, and you should be happy...
_
You decided to call Ashley that evening after dinner. She always knew how to make you feel better. It had been weeks since you had spoken on the phone.
Ash’s mom picked up after the second ring. 
“Well, hi sweetie, how have you been? Miss you around here!” 
“I’m great, Mrs. Thompson, thanks! I would be missing home, but there are more Hawkins here than usual.” You laughed. 
“Oh yeah, Ash told me Eddie was also there this summer, such a sweet young man.” she mused. 
“Yeah, he sure is sweet, alright.” You sighed. 
“Y/N, I’d say you have a crush on that boy!” She giggled. 
You always loved Ashley’s mom; she was like a second mom, but one you felt like you could talk to as a friend. 
“That’s kind of the reason I called...Is Ash around?”
“Yeah, just a second, sweetie… ASHLEY SWEETHEART, PHONE!” she yelled. 
You waited a few seconds and could hear her feet padding the floor to answer the phone. 
“Hey, bitch what’s up?” She laughed. 
“You are not going to believe what is up!” you half screamed excitedly. 
“Spill it, now.” You can picture Ash sitting at your shared kitchen table, ready and focused. 
“Do you want me to spare any details, or can you muster up the courage to take it all?” you giggled. 
“Details, now.” She demanded 
“Your friend is the best dick I’ve ever had!” You half-whispered in case anyone was about to come into the office. 
The line was silent for a few seconds. 
“Ash, you still there? Oh god, don't tell me your mom is still there?” Your apartment wasn't the biggest.
“You son of a bitch, you did it! I knew you could do it!” She cheered so loud you had to take the phone off your ear. “Tell me EVERYTHING!” And so you do...
“Fucking finally! I knew you would be perfect together.” 
“That's the thing, Ash. It’s too perfect. What if he realizes he made a mistake?” You bit your nail.
“No, dude, that’s not Eddie. I know that kid like the back of my hand. Once he is in it, he’s not giving up. He’s very set in his ways once he fixates on something,” she reassures. 
“But have you ever considered that we have never seen him with a girlfriend at school? What if he isn’t the relationship type?” You questioned. 
“Did you fall and hit your head? This is Eddie we are talking about. He is in charge of the Dungeons and Dragons Club. He is the biggest nerd on the planet. And you’re concerned he won’t want to be with you? The pretty angel of a human, hot, popular cheerleader?” 
“Well, yeah…” You sunk back into the chair, 
“You must have bashed your head into the headboard while Eddie rocked your world.” She laughed and you can't help but also laugh.
“I don't know; we are two totally different people! We are in two totally different groups. What if it doesn’t work out? What if we are too different? what about my parents?” 
“You and I are in two different groups. You and I are two totally different people, and we get along just peachy. Who says your parents even have to know?” 
"Well, they have to know eventually"
"Why are you planning on marrying him any time soon?" she snorts.
"...No"
Well, any other concerns you want to tell me about?” She quipped.
“Well… don’t kill me, but I told Eddie about our matching tattoos.” You cringed, hoping she wouldn’t kill you. 
“HA! I wish I were there to see the look on his face! Was it priceless?” She laughed. 
Ash and you started catching up with her and her trips to the city pool, and she said she had been going to the roller rink to see the cute counter girl. 
 “There you are, pretty girl.” You jumped as you turned to see Eddie walking over.  
“Shhhh, Im talking to Ash,” You hushed him. 
Before you could tell her he was there, he grabbed you by the middle, lifted you up and sat you on his lap. Then he took the phone. 
“AshCash! What’s up, man? It's been forever. Do you miss the dungeon master yet? Is Jeff holding up as my stand-in?” 
You can’t help but roll your eyes. This boy was talking a mile a minute. 
You couldn’t hear the rest of the conversation on her end, but you think she said something along the lines of “I’ll rip your dick off if you try anything funny with y/n.” Then Eddie laughed, saying, “Cross my heart and hope to die.” Then he hung up.
“Hey, I didn’t even get to say goodbye!” You pouted. 
“Don’t look at me like that, Princess,” 
You continued to pout and crossed my arms to hike your breasts up. 
“If you keep looking at me like that, I’m not responsible for what happens next.” He nuzzled his face into the crook of your neck. 
“Is that a threat or a promise?” 
Eddie let out a groan of frustration. 
“Come on, princess. We have to go meet with the others; they’re complaining we're being too antisocial.” 
— 
The night continued, and you and your friends decided to let loose tonight. One more night was before the month ended, and the Campers turned over. You would miss your campers but couldn’t wait to meet the new ones. 
As you and Eddie walked over to the pit hand in hand, you could see the others around the already roaring campfire. 
“So, what were you two up to?” Robin asked, wiggling her brows. 
“Wouldn’t you like to know?” You walk up behind her, surprising her with a kiss on the cheek. 
“You and Eddie sit on the only free log left, and he wraps an arm around you. 
“You guys are so cute.” Nancy sighs. 
“You are so lucky you live in the same town. That way, you won’t have to break up at the end of the summer.” Steve points out. 
That starts the gears turning in your head. Being at home with Eddie, the thought rarely even crossed your mind. What were you going to do? The only reason you’ve been so yourself with him was that you were here, hours away from home. What were your parents going to think? What was the town going to think? You built up this whole reputation around yourself so people would like you. You needed everyone to like you. What will they all feel when they see you around with Eddie?
They would judge you; you know they would. What will the football team say when one of their cheerleaders is dating the town pariah? 
Your mind was racing a mile a minute, and you lost track of the conversation. 
“Princess” 
You snapped out of your inner thoughts. 
“What?”
“I said I can’t wait to walk around Hawkins with you on my arm,” Eddie affectionately nuzzled his face into your shoulder.
“Oh, uh? Yeah… totally.” You reached for a drink from the cooler. You needed something to calm your nerves.  
“Gunna, show you off to the whole town. Tell everybody that I bagged the prettiest, most thoughtful, most caring, joyful girl in Hawkins. 
“ Can’t wait.” You smile half heatedly when you feel like your heart is sinking.

Waiting for Love - Part One
He’s a Married Man
I felt inspired and started a brand new series! It’s a bit different from anything else I’ve done, and I’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback! ❤️
Content: Story starts in summer of 1970, marriage problems, infidelity, smut (lighter in this first chapter but still there), fun Elvis-y things, 18+
Read the full series here!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Early July 1970
Vivien walked slowly past the Graceland gate on her way home from work. She always told herself that if she didn’t actually stop and wait, she wasn’t one of those crazy obsessed fans. She was just a normal curious person. Who walked five blocks out of her way every day in a pathetic attempt to catch a glimpse of Elvis Presley. There were a few other fans milling about, but it was too hot for a huge crowd. Right as she was about to cross over the driveway entrance, a big black car came roaring down the street, barely slowing to turn into the drive where the gate was starting to open. Vivien’s jaw dropped open as Elvis himself leaned out of the passenger window with a big smile.
“Hey, honey, didn’t mean ta scare ya. Got a crazy driver here,” he said, pointing a thumb over at the stocky man behind the wheel. Elvis gave Vivien a quick glance up and down and smiled again. “Were ya waitin’ for me?”
Vivien smoothed out her knee-length skirt and quickly glanced down to make sure none of the buttons on her short-sleeved blouse had popped open. She was always having trouble with that third one down. The one that would reveal the most, of course. So far, so good. “Oh, um,” she stumbled over her words. “I, um, was walking home from work, but it is nice to see you though.” Her face turned red as Elvis chuckled.
“It’s nice ta see you too, honey. It’s too hot ta be sittin’ out here talkin’, but why don’t ya come to the movies with us t’night,” he said it as more of statement than a question. “A group of us are goin’ to the Memphian. Just come in the side door at 10:00 and say Joe invited you.” The driver rolled his eyes at this, but neither Vivien nor Elvis seemed to notice.
Vivien tried in vain to keep her cool as she exclaimed, “Oh, wow, okay, I’d love to.” As she pushed her glasses up on her nose, she made eye-contact with Elvis right as he was also adjusting his own tinted glasses. They both laughed, and Elvis gave her a little wink.
“Okay, honey, I’ll see ya t’night,” he called out as the car continued up the winding driveway. Vivien was pretty sure her smile was lighting up the whole city as she continued her walk home.
As soon as she got inside her apartment, she picked up the phone. “Roxanne, I need you to come over right now. It’s a fashion emergency.” Ten minutes later, her best friend arrived at the door from her apartment two buildings down, panting and out of breath.
“I got here as fast as I could! What’s going on? Hot date?” Roxanne asked as she barged in and flopped on the couch.
Vivien bobbed up and down excitedly as she squealed, “I’m going to the Memphian with Elvis Presley!”
“What?! When?!” Roxanne exclaimed, jumping up from the couch and then sinking back down onto it in shock.
“Tonight! I told you my walking by the gate every day would pay off eventually,” Vivien announced triumphantly. “And you have to go with me! I’m sure he wouldn’t mind; he said it would be a big group.”
Roxanne’s face dropped a little bit. “I can’t tonight!” she wailed. “Michael made us reservations for this fancy anniversary dinner, and he’ll kill me if I bail on him. Especially for another man. I’ll just have to live vicariously through your stories about the night,” she sighed dreamily.
“Has it been one year already? I didn’t know you had it in you,” Vivien teased.
“Oh, very funny, goody two-shoes,” Roxanne retorted. “At least I’ve had something in me.” Vivien blushed at that dig. She’d always been holding out for something really special. “Speaking of that,” Roxanne continued, “are you gonna try to hook up with him tonight?”
“Who? Elvis?” Vivien asked with shock.
“No, the pope. Of course Elvis! He invited you personally, he probably thought you looked cute in your little secretary outfit,” Roxanne said with a knowing wink.
“N-no, he-he’s a married man,” Vivien sputtered out. “I’m just excited to be around him and maybe talk to him. I bet he’s so interesting to talk to.”
“Hmm,” Roxanne tutted disapprovingly. “Well, I think you should go for it. I heard that marriage has been on the rocks since the beginning anyway,” she said as Vivien shot her a look. “I’m just saying, you could be waiting in the wings. Now let’s find you something to wear.”
*************************************************
At 9:55pm, Vivien stepped off the bus two blocks from the theater, feeling severely overdressed in a low-cut sparkly cocktail dress and red kitten heels, her wavy dark brown hair pulled back off her face with a jeweled hair clip. Well, that’s what she got for asking Roxanne’s advice. She should’ve known she’d be sent out into the world looking like a good-time girl. Roxanne also told her, in no uncertain terms, that she was not to wear her glasses. Despite the fact that she wouldn’t be able to see the movie, or probably even recognize Elvis from across the lobby, she followed the advice and tucked them in her purse before heading toward the side door of the theater as instructed.
A red-headed man was acting as some sort of security guard right outside the door. Vivien told him she was invited by Joe and he held the door open for her to go in. She was surprised to find that the side door led directly into the darkened theater. Patton was just starting. She squinted down the aisle looking for any familiar faces but found nothing, so she nervously sat down in an empty seat, wondering if she would even see Elvis at all. Her nerves, plus the fact that everything on the screen looked fuzzy, made it hard to even focus on what was happening in the movie. She decided to sneak out to the lobby and see if the concession stand had anything that might settle her stomach, which had been doing flip-flops since she stepped off the bus. She rose and quickly scurried down the aisle, trying not to block anyone’s view of the movie.
Vivien pulled her wallet out of her purse to pay for her 7-Up and noticed she had brought a copy of Khalil Gibran’s The Prophet, one of her favorite books. She decided maybe she’d just find a spot to sit and read until the movie was over. Maybe she could catch Elvis’ attention on his way out. She wandered the little lobby looking for a spot to sit and ran right into Elvis coming out of the bathroom. His driver from earlier was standing next to the door. Vivien thought maybe she imagined it, but it looked like Elvis’ face lit up when he saw her.
“She is here!” Elvis turned to Joe and glared at him. “I told ya ta bring her ta sit with me when she got here.”
“I told Red to let me know when she got here! I said she had long dark hair and glasses…” Joe’s voice trailed off as he realized Vivien no longer matched his description.
Elvis started laughing as he realized what the problem was. “Why’d ya take your cute glasses off, honey? How’s anyone supposed ta find ya?”
Vivien smiled shyly. “Bad advice from a friend, I guess,” she said, fishing in her purse for her glasses. “Plus I didn’t know you’d be looking for me.”
“Hey, whatcha got there? The Prophet?” Elvis asked excitedly, noticing the book peeking out of her purse.
“Oh, yeah, I never go anywhere without a book,” Vivian admitted, feeling silly. Elvis looked at her, his eyes literally twinkling with delight.
“That’s one of my favorite books! You should come visit me tomorrow, I’d love ta talk to ya about it.” Elvis had now moved so close that their arms were touching. Vivien could hardly breath, so intoxicating was his presence.
“Are-are you sure?” she asked. “I mean, I’d love to talk to you more, but I don’t want to impose.”
“It’s no imposition, honey, I’m always up for some good conversation. Plus the guys’ll be busy tomorrow, right, Joe?” Elvis gave him a pointed look, letting him know they should make themselves busy. “I’ll be wantin’ some company. You don’t want me sittin’ there all lonely, do ya?” Vivien felt goosebumps raise on her skin as Elvis ran the backs of his fingers down her upper arm.
“No, of course not,” she whispered, suddenly unsure of exactly what he was asking. “I’d love to keep you company.” She felt embarassed at how flirty she was being with this married man, but she also couldn’t seem to stop smiling at him. It was all so surreal. Elvis pulled her in a for a tight hug, his arms wrapped all the way around her so that his fingers were brushing along the sides of her breasts. The affection he displayed had her weak in the knees.
“I’ll see ya tomorrow, honey. Come by around three. After breakfast,” he smiled and gave her a peck on the cheek. He started to walk away and then quickly turned back, asking, “What’s your name, dear? In case ya try ta go incognito again.”
“Vivien,” she said with a smile. “What’s yours?” Elvis tilted his head back and let out a loud burst of laughter before walking away. Vivien was floating so high that she almost didn’t wonder why he no longer wanted her to come sit with him. She supposed he’d found a new seat mate when he thought she wasn’t there. Maybe his wife?, she wondered. But then why would he be looking for me?
After the movies were over, Vivien hoped to say goodbye to Elvis again, but he was surrounded by fans, and she felt silly interrupting. She observed that he was affectionate with almost everyone, and worried she had read way too much into their conversation. Does he even really want me to come over? Since he had insisted, she decided it would be rude to not show up, but she tried to get her expectations in check. Plus, he’s a married man, she reminded herself.
*************************************************
The next day was Saturday, thank goodness, because Vivien had given no thought to her work schedule when agreeing to these outings. She wondered if Elvis even kept track of the days of the week like normal people had to. She had already decided not to call Roxanne until she got back from Graceland later. She didn’t want anyone else’s thoughts getting in her head; she was confused enough on her own. Unsure of what to wear or how fancy she should look, she decided to just be comfortable in some black capri pants and a red and white striped shirt that hugged her body in the way she liked. She slipped on some sandals, grabbed her book and purse, and headed out the door.
It was much more pleasant outside than it had been the day before, which was a relief. Vivien thought how awkward it would be to show up with sweat dripping down her face. Whoever was at the gate must have been expecting her, because they opened it right away and told her to just knock on the front door. Elvis answered the door himself, wearing crisp white pants and a satin-y red shirt with arm garters. His feet were bare, which made her heart flutter for some reason.
“Vivien! Perfect timing! I just finished gettin’ dressed,” he smiled. “Come on in.” He led her into a beautiful living room with a massively long couch. She noticed a framed photo on the coffee table of him, Priscilla, and their cute little daughter.
“You have a beautiful family, Elvis,” she commented when he noticed her staring at the picture.
“Oh, thanks,” he said, sounding a little dismissive of the compliment. “‘Cilla’s out of town right now. She went to visit her parents with Lisa.” He seemed to be answering a question that had been hanging in the air, unasked. Vivien just nodded and tried to look like this fact didn’t both excite and worry her.
“I brought my book. Is there any particular chapter you wanted to talk about?” she asked, hoping to guide the conversation away from absent spouses.
“All of it!” he said excitedly. She noticed he had a copy sitting on the coffee table as well. “Sit down and make yourself comfortable, honey. You can take your sandals off and just set your feet here.” He indicated the space on the couch next to him. Feeling a little self-conscious, Vivien curled up so that she was leaning slightly away from him but her bare feet were next to him. While they talked, Elvis would occasionaly rest his hand on her ankle or rub his fingers absent-mindedly over the top of her foot. It was very soothing. He didn’t seem to be aiming for anything more, just a soft, gentle affection. When the phone rang, he excused himself and said he’d be right back. He seemed slightly agitated when he returned.
“What’s wrong? Is everything okay?” Vivien questioned, noticing his tense demeanor.
“Yeah, honey, ever’thing’s fine,” he drawled. The butterflies in Vivien’s stomach flew into overdrive at the way the word “honey” always dripped off his tongue like the sweet sticky substance itself. Elvis sighed and continued on without any prompting, unable to keep his frustration to himself. “It’s jus’ ‘Cilla, she’s always got-got-gotta be so suspicious of me,” he vented, his irritation clearly growing. “She c-c-can’t believe I’d jus’ be talkin’ ta someone about books and stuff that she’s not even interested in. It’s always gotta be somethin’...nefarious with her,” he emphasized each syllable of “nefarious” and rubbed the back of his neck as he leaned back next to Vivien on the couch.
She swallowed nervously and nodded, trying not to be distracted by the way his chubby penis flopped loosely against his thigh when he leaned back, clearly uncontrained by any underwear. She actually wasn’t sure if it was chubby, but it looked like it would be, and she’d been sneaking enough glances at it to feel like she had an idea of what it would look like if he exposed it to her…Vivien was pulled out of her less-than-wholesome thoughts by the realization that Elvis had followed her eyes down to his lap and seemed to be reading her thoughts as if they were comic strip bubbles showing next to her head. Instead of the bravado he sometimes exuded, Vivien was surprised to see him blush and rest his hand on his lap in a way that blocked her view.
“W-w-where were we?” he stuttered, thumbing through the well-loved pages of The Prophet, pretending not to notice the way Vivien’s racing heartbeat seemed to make the whole couch shudder with desire.
“Don’t be too hard on her,” Vivien blurted out against her better judgment, causing Elvis to look up in surprise, his mouth slightly agape. “I mean,” Vivien began to ramble nervously, “if I were, um, if you and I, I mean,” she fought back at the tears of embarassment that were welling up in her eyes and started again. “If I had you, I wouldn’t probably like you talking to another woman much either,” Vivien cringed at her awkward wording. “I’d want you all to myself all the time, especially to talk about things you’re so passionate about,” she finished with a whisper, looking down nervously at her red-painted fingernails.
Elvis nodded his head slowly, considering her words. “W-w-well, ‘Cilla ain’t like that though. She ain’t interested in these things. Sometimes I feel we have nothin’ in common…” his voice trailed off sadly as he seemed to be contemplating all his life decisions in this moment. Then his soft lips tugged up into a crooked smirk and he looked over at Vivien slyly. “How often do ya think about havin’ me?” The bravado was back.
Sneaking just the tiniest peek back down at his crotch, Vivien racked her brain for a witty answer that wouldn’t sound ridiculous and came up with nothing. “It sure looks nice out,” she quickly changed the subject with a glance out the window.
“It sure does, honey,” Elvis chuckled. “We should take a break from the book and go for a swim.” Vivien flushed at the thought of seeing Elvis’ body in just some swim trunks.
“Oh, um, I don’t have a swimsuit with me,” she explained as he sized her up appraisingly.
“That’s okay, dear, I think I have somethin’ for ya,” he said, jumping up and hurrying upstairs. He came back five minutes later with a beaming grin and a little red and white polka dot bikini. “I bet this’ll fit ya okay.” Something in his cheeky grin told Vivien that he wouldn’t be too upset if it didn’t fit quite right. It looked very tiny.
“Oh, Elvis, I can’t wear your wife’s swimsuit,” Vivien protested, but he had clearly already made his mind up.
“It-it’s fine, honey, she ain’t gonna miss it. She had ten of ‘em up there, brand new, I jus’ cut the tags off.” Elvis grabbed her hand and pulled her along to the room leading out to the pool area. He nodded to the changing area and told her to just meet him out at the pool when she was ready. Vivien wriggled herself into the little suit and nervously eyed her reflection in the full-length mirror. Everything essential was covered, but a soft little roll of skin was squeezing out from the suit bottom, her butt felt too exposed, and her breasts were spilling out slightly from the molded cups on top. She bit down on her lip, trying to make a quick decision. If she got right in the water, the ill-fitting suit wouldn’t be too noticeable. She decided it would be much more embarassing to have to get dressed again and go tell him that the suit was too small.
Elvis let out a low whistle from his lawn chair as soon as she stepped outside. So much for sneaking right into the water, Vivien thought as Elvis jumped up and circled around her. Her heart started racing at the sight of him in little red swim shorts and a striped shirt. She sinfully wondered if there was any chance of something flopping out the bottom of the shorts.
“Damn, baby, I like the way you fill that suit out,” Elvis murmured as his eyes stayed a second too long on her overflowing bikini top.
“It’s a little too small,” Vivien couldn’t stop herself from pointing out.
“Nah, honey, it looks perfect.” That crooked smile sent the butterflies on another flight. “Now the rule is, to enter the pool, ya have ta go off the diving board,” Elvis announced with a mischievous smile.
“Oh, I don’t know if that’s a good idea,” Vivien responded, thinking of all the body parts that could come flying out of her suit upon impact with the water.
“C’mon, Vivien,” he teased, giving her bare sides a little tickle with his long warm fingers. Her skin felt on fire from his touch. “Don’t be a party pooper. I’ll even go first!” He peeled off his t-shirt, causing a strange tingle to shoot through Vivien’s core, tossed it aside, and sprang into a messy dive, his long legs flailing a bit in the air. He surfaced, spitting water in the air like a fountain and beckoning her to come in. Vivien set her glasses on a little table by the chair, walked gingerly until her toes were at the edge of the diving board, took a deep breath, and plunged in, hoping for the best.
As she came up for air and pushed her dripping wet hair out of her face, she caught the flustered look on Elvis’ face that made her realize that her fear had come true. She glanced down to where his eyes were fixated on her chest, his lips hanging open slightly as his tongue subconciously slipped out and licked them. Vivien let out a little yelp when she saw that one of her nipples had escaped out of the bikini top and she quickly moved to tuck it back where it belonged. She covered her face in embarassment as Elvis swam closer to her. He pulled her hands down from her face and drew her into a gentle hug.
“Hey now, honey, ‘s okay. I wasn’t even lookin’...too much,” he said, trying to stifle a laugh as Vivien swatted at him.
“It’s not funny, Elvis, I’m embarassed,” she whispered, unable to look him in the eye.
“Aw, honey, you ain’t never gotta be embarassed around me. And it’s jus’ us here, okay? Good thing all the guys had errands to run today, ‘cuz I want ya ta save that show only for me, okay?” Vivien finally smiled a little at that and nodded. “Would it make ya feel any better ta see my nipples?” Elvis joked, pushing his chest out in an exaggerated fashion. Vivien laughed and blushed as she eyed his torso, willing her eyes not to keep going down further, but that little trail of hair leading down past his belly button was just so enticing. “Hey, my nipples are up here,” Elvis teased, catching her under the chin with his tanned fingers. Vivien’s head was swimming at how flirtatious things had gotten since she’d admitted that she had thought of… “having him.” He’s a married man…hold it together, Vivien, she whispered inside her head. As if sensing her nervousness, Elvis quickly changed the subject, pulling her over to lean against the wall of the pool. “I’ve been talkin’ your ear off all day about my problems. Tell me somethin’ about you, honey.”
“Um, well, I’m 21, I work as a secretary at a law firm, I was named after Vivien Leigh,” she started out tentatively, wondering how much Elvis was really interested in anything about her life.
“Really? Vivien Leigh?” he exclaimed, his rapt attention giving her the confidence to continue.
“Yeah, my mom really loved Gone With the Wind,” she said with a laugh. As she talked about her family, Vivien took note of how Elvis’ eyes and nose crinkled up so cutely when he laughed, how the drying hair of his sideburns curled up and tucked into his ears, how the hint of gray at his temples sparkled in the sunlight. As he reached over and brushed a stray hair out of her face, a little shiver ran through her body.
“Is the wa-wa too cold, honey?” he asked, looking concerned. “Lemme help ya onto the ledge here so you can warm up in the sun.” He lifted Vivien onto the ledge and leaned in between her legs as he sat her down. “That better?” She nodded and her breath caught in her throat as she stared down into his sparkly blue eyes. “Vivien, you are beautiful,” he whispered as he leaned in and pressed his pillowly lips to hers, slipping his tongue gently into her mouth. As he moved his lips down to the soft skin of her breast that was spilling out of the bikini top, her brain was screaming at her to stop him, but she couldn’t stop her body from responding to his every touch. He pulled the cup down a little bit, popping her nipple back out into the warm sunshine. Vivien let out an involuntary little gasp as he touched his tongue to her nipple and then sucked it into his mouth. As he rubbed his thumb over the saliva he left on it, he whispered, “See you ain’t gotta feel bad around me at all, honey. I ain’t gonna hurt ya.” He tucked it back into her top before leaning his head down and kissing her thigh. “Mmm, honey, you are drivin’ me crazy in this little suit. I see your cute little beaver wants ta come out and visit me,” he murmured as his fingers traced up Vivien’s inner thighs and rubbed gently at the dark wiry hairs escaping from the elastic of the bikini bottoms. Elvis hooked his long index finger into the elastic and tugged it to the side. He let out a groan as he slipped his fingers through the wetness. “You’re glistenin’ for me, Vivien,” he said with a smile.
“Elvis, I, um, ohhhh,” Vivien let out a load moan as Elvis slipped a finger inside of her. He tried to pump it, but her whole body seemed to tense up and his finger was meeting too much resistance. “Elvis, I’m sorry, um, I’m,” she started to explain her embarassing lack of experience, but Elvis shushed her gently. He straightened her suit out and pulled her back into the water, into his arms.
“Shh, ‘s okay, honey. You’re a good girl ain’t cha? I can feel it,” he whispered as he rubbed her back soothingly. “We ain’t gotta do anything you don’t wanna do.”
“It’s, it’s not that I don’t want to. It’s just, um, I care about you Elvis. I don’t want to be something nefarious for you. I want to be something good.” Elvis looked a little shocked and - delighted maybe? - that someone would care enough about him to reject him, in a way. There was a warm glow on his face as he looked at Vivien tenderly.
“Can we jus’ be friends for now then? I really love talkin to ya, honey,” he said softly. “And, like I said, we ain’t gotta do anything you ain’t ready for. I jus’ want your company.”
Vivien nodded and looked up into his eyes. “I’d love to be friends. I think you’re a really special person,” she added, causing Elvis to blush.
After they were dressed and saying their goodbyes, Elvis promised to give her a call to come back and talk about the book some more. He leaned down and pressed a soft sweet kiss to her lips. “Not nefarious, just friendly,” he whispered as he pulled away with that lopsided smile. Vivien smiled and nodded, even as the gentle poke from something firm and definitely chubby below his belt told her that wasn’t quite true. And next time, she wasn’t sure she’d have the wherewithal to stop him from exploring her in any way he wanted. She walked away from the mansion feeling giddy, confused, thrilled, and terrified.

His One 11:00 AM

Ultimate Masterlist KOFI Ask a question
Word Count: 1225
"Ambulance"
In the middle of it all, Jake, the son of Robby's ex, strode into The Pitt, greeted with easy smiles and familiarity. It was a rare glimpse into Robby's softer side, one Eliana had only seen in slivers. She hated how it made her stomach twist, how much she wanted to be the reason his walls cracked. Not that she'd ever admit it.
Langdon, as reckless as ever, performed an unconventional airway clearance when a young man nearly bled out from a botched tonsil surgery. The move was bold, brilliant even, and it caught Robby’s attention. "I recommended you for the upcoming fellowship," he informed Langdon later, his expression unreadable. A flicker of pride crossed Langdon’s face, but Eliana saw something else in Robby’s gaze. An unspoken challenge. One she had come to know well.
it was in Room 14 where the true battle of the day took place. Kristi, one week past the legal cutoff for a medication abortion, sat in uncertainty, her mother looming over her like a storm cloud. Collins’s voice was calm but firm. "Legally, we can’t proceed." But then Robby stepped in, his voice sharper, his hands steady as he adjusted the ultrasound. A slight shift, a well-placed angle—and suddenly, the image on the screen told a different story. Just under the cutoff.
Eliana watched from the doorway, arms crossed. "You're playing a dangerous game," she murmured when they were alone.
Robby turned to her, something dark flickering behind his gaze. "I play to win."
She should have walked away. Should have ignored the way her pulse quickened at his words, the way her body reacted to the heat simmering between them. Instead, she met his stare head-on. "One day, you're going to lose."
His smirk was infuriating. "Not today."
The hospital carried on around them, but in that moment, it was just them.''
Eliana barely had time to lock the door before Robby had her pinned against it, his breath hot against her neck. "You think you can push me without consequences?" he murmured, his fingers trailing down her waist.
"Maybe I like the consequences," she shot back, her hands fisting his shirt, pulling him closer.
His lips crashed against hers, rough and demanding, years of unspoken tension unraveling in the heat between them. Her back met the cool wood as his hands roamed, claiming, teasing, igniting a fire that neither of them had the will to put out. His mouth moved down her jaw, teeth scraping against her skin, drawing a gasp from her lips as his hands dipped lower.
A sharp knock at the door had them both freezing, chests heaving, bodies still tangled. "Eliana, are you in there?" It was Collins.
Robby smirked against her lips. "Looks like your game just got riskier."
She exhaled a shaky breath, a smirk of her own forming. "Not today." the pair steps back and adjusts themselves.
Before she could fully catch her breath, the door burst open. Collins stepped in, her sharp gaze flickering between them. "What the hell is going on in here?" she demanded, her arms crossing over her chest.
Eliana straightened, the heat of the moment replaced by an entirely different kind of tension. Robby, ever the cocky bastard, simply leaned against the wall, unbothered. "Just a private conversation."
Collins narrowed her eyes. "Right. A conversation. If I find out your ‘conversations’ are interfering with patient care, there will be consequences. For both of you."
Eliana swallowed, forcing herself to maintain composure. "Understood."
Collins gave one last lingering glance before turning on her heel, leaving the door wide open in her wake. The message was clear.
Robby’s voice was low when he leaned in close again. "Guess we’ll have to be more careful next time."
Eliana scoffed, but the way her pulse pounded told a different story. "You’re insufferable."
His smirk widened. "And you love it."
She did. And that was the problem.
The stolen ambulance skidded across the wet pavement, hydroplaning before slamming into a guardrail. Metal groaned and glass shattered, sending shards flying as the vehicle came to a jarring stop. The ER team was already on edge when the call came in, but as the doors burst open, revealing two dazed frat boys covered in minor scrapes and bruises, a collective groan passed through the staff.
Eliana moved quickly, her pulse steady even as chaos erupted around her. She crouched beside the first boy, checking his pupils with a penlight. "How much did you drink?" she asked, already knowing the answer.
"Not... that much," he slurred, swaying even though he was seated on the gurney. His buddy let out a delirious laugh, clutching his ribs.
Robby stepped in, expression unreadable as he adjusted his gloves. "And yet, you thought stealing an ambulance was a good idea. Brilliant. Just brilliant." His sarcasm was lost on the pair, who giggled drunkenly as Eliana shot him a look.
Meanwhile, across the ER, Santos was having a very different kind of shift. She had spent the past week trying to win over Yolanda Garcia, one of the hospital's top surgeons, hoping to secure a coveted opportunity to scrub in on a high-profile case. But as she made her rounds, her confidence faltered when she fumbled a scalpel.
Yolanda sucked in a sharp breath as the blade embedded itself in the side of her foot. "Oh my God," Santos whispered, color draining from her face.
Yolanda clenched her jaw but remained eerily calm. "Get. Me. Gauze. Now."
Nick's parents lingered in the waiting area, their grief still raw as they wrestled with the finality of their son's death. Across the ER, Collins worked tirelessly, treating a young man suffering from testicular torsion. As she talked with his mother, a wave of emotion struck her—how easily love and worry intertwined. It reminded her of her own fears about impending motherhood. Maybe, just maybe, she wasn’t as alone in this as she thought.
Santos and Langdon found themselves in a battle of their own when a patient arrived with neurocysticercosis, their body riddled with parasitic cysts. The diagnosis sent a ripple of discomfort through the staff, but they focused on treatment, setting aside their personal unease.
Meanwhile, King struggled with a different kind of dilemma—Ginger. She sat in her usual chair, waiting for news that would never come, her daughter long gone. King wanted to help, but how could he fix the unfixable?
The night wasn’t over. Javadi burned with embarrassment when her mother arrived unannounced to check on a patient, treating the ER like her personal viewing room. And Gloria had her own concerns—if patient satisfaction scores didn’t improve, The Pitt might fall under corporate management. "We need solutions, Robby. Now," she told him, her gaze sharp.
As if the day couldn’t get more volatile, Kristi locked herself in a bathroom, refusing to leave with Eloise. Outside, Eloise and Kristi’s aunt Lynette erupted into a screaming match, shoving Collins when she tried to intervene. "Enough!" Collins snapped, rubbing her shoulder as security moved in.
Eliana exhaled as she leaned against the nurses' station, watching the madness unfold. Robby nudged her arm, handing her a cup of coffee. "Another night in paradise."
She smirked, exhaustion tugging at her features. "Wouldn’t trade it for anything."
He arched a brow. "Not even a stolen ambulance?"
She laughed, shaking her head. "Okay, maybe that."
The ER churned with controlled chaos, but for now, they were still standing. And that was enough.

Danny cried out to Jazz and Jack, Jazz called back.. "Jazz... Look.. that's not Danny anymore.. Danny is Dead." Jack tries to convince Jazz but Jazz Wasn't budging. "I KNOW MY BROTHER JACK! GIVE HIM BACK!" She cried out sobbing uncontrollably.
Maddie shut the door to the laboratory and Jazz could no longer hear Danny. Neither could Danny Hear her. He kept crying out but then Maddie put a tight collar on his throat and it send waves of electric shocks throughout his body making him scream out in pain.
It reminded him of his death and it made his body spasm the way when he became a Halfa. It terrified him even more, Maddie then forcibly put a Muzzle on him to "keep him quiet" she says. Danny tried to reason with Maddie but everytime he tries to she sends another wave of electrical Shocks through his body and so he just fell silent.
Maddie threw him in a cage like some sort of Injured Monster that needed containment at once.
His tears wouldn't stop flowing, they kept falling and thus he sobbed uncontrollably in the Containment Cell, Danny saw the Ghost Blobs staring at him with worry, they're buzzing with sadness and grief over what's happening to him, his heart aches as he tries to reach for them but couldn't...
His core ached and wrenched at the thought of what Jack and Maddie are about to do to him and it's like he can already see that Maddie was preparing surgical equipment... He felt like an innocent frog Infront of high school students ready to study his Innards..
Jack and Maddie are the Highschoolers. The only difference is he's already dead in the first place... And they can do anything they want with him because of the Laws.
May God be his only hope now.
Ancients Save the Ghost Prince.
[9:00 𝙰𝙼, 𝙰𝚖𝚒𝚝𝚢 𝙿𝚊𝚛𝚔]
The Guys In White/Ghost Investigation Ward has arrived. They have higher advanced technology now, it seems as though when they were gone they were advancing their technology to find ghosts more accurately.
They put the Whole Town in Lockdown claiming that there's people that's Ecto-Contaminated and needed to be terminated before they become a threat...
But..
Those are children.
They've killed nearly everyone, some has already tried to call the Justice League again in desperation but they ignored their pleas thinking that this was a Prank Call.
It was just like before, they kept thinking they were prank calls after A child tried to ask for help because the whole town was sucked into the afterlife.
Jazz ran through the streets evading the Ghost Investigation Ward and heading to Vlad Masters. She needed to tell Dan, Knowing Vlad he won't be able to help because this is probably all Clockwork's Scheme for "Danny's Future Betterment", Jazz couldn't stop the tears forming from her eyes as she kept running.
The GIW has already terminated the children in cold blood.
Some younger than 10. Some teens. And 2 of those teens were Sam Manson, one of Danny's best friends as they have concluded that because of how long they've been around Danny that Danny had contaminated them and that they're no longer safe for everyone around them and themselves as well.
The Mansons tried to stop The GIW from shooting their beloved daughter but the GIW unfairly concluded that they were being overshadowed by their daughter thus they killed the Mansons in Cold Blood.
How unfair must this world be that even the so called Justice League wouldn't even hear their calls of help. They needed help from the heroes but it seems they're always too focused on other Matters... And that the safety of some Somewhere Middle of Nowhere Illinois Amity Park was not deemed "important" enough to be saved. It made Jazz's Heart Clench at the thought of how Danny was right.
The heroes didn't care. She kept running nontheless through the crowd of horrified people trying to stop the GIW from killing more of the Amity Parkers.
Eventually she reached Vlad's Mansion, she busted in through the door taking Dan Aback. "Jazz? Why are you crying? What's happening?" Dan asks immediately and getting closer to Jazz as soon as he saw her.
"Jasmine? Is everything alright dear?" Vlad asks as well in worry. Upon seeing them Jazz just Broke Down in overwhelming tears, "Oh G-god.... Hic.. they have Danny Vlad!" She utters as Vlad tries to put his hands on her shoulders trying to console her... "who has Danny? The GIW?" Vlad asks and hugs Jasmine who couldn't stop crying.
"Jack and Maddie! Jack and Maddie has Jack has Danny Vlad! They have my baby brother! My precious baby brother! They said they're going to o-pen him up! And that they'll torture him if he doesn't bring back Danny they say but that's already Danny and they won't listen, they said I must have been under control— and—AND THEY HAVE MY BABY BROTHER!" She yelled out sputtering words of panic as her breathing quickens and Vlad shushing her calming her down first before she has a panic attack.
"The Guys In White... They've killed people Vlad. Innocent People. They've claimed they're Ecto-Contaminated! And— and— Danny's friends are dead... Only a few aren't... Well I guess they're more of bullies than friends except Wes I guess but—" Jazz still sputtering words in a panic. "Jasmine! Dear.... Calm down alright?" Vlad calms her down and she slowly breathes slower in a normal pace before wiping away her unstoppable tears.
"What..." Vlad was flabbergasted and horrified to say the least and Dan looked Livid. "Please... Please Vlad... Help me... Help Danny.. P-Please..." She sobs in Vlad's Arms. "Okay... Okay okay— i— I will help." Vlad says stuttering and looked at Dan. "Dante... Will help...." Vlad says again and Dan just nods.
Jazz nods and embraced Vlad tightly, Vlad was distraught. Maddie? His Maddie? What... His Maddie had— she had... She wanted... She wanted to kill her son? Her precious son? Daniel? Danny? What...
His core ached in pain and suppressing these emotions of horror and Fear inside him that's slowly stirring up anger. Slowly his.. Obsession towards Maddie weakened because of this realization that she is more of a monster than him.
[3 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬 𝐏𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐝]
"I'm sorry I can't... Come with you two..." Vlad says his core aching in regret. "It's alright Vlad... Please... We both know that... That their work.. their weapons will immediately turn on you even if you are their friend... Dan can atleast hide his.... Ecto-stuff somehow... But not you.. thank you nontheless..." Jazz says, her eyes with a soft gentle gaze as Vlad nodded, Ellie was by Vlad's Feet and smiling happily at Jazz and Dan.
"I'll be going with Jazz Now Vlad. I'll see you later once we get Danny." Dante reassures Vlad which made Vlad sigh and nodded in silence again. Jazz and Dante walked off into back into the main city of Amity Park. What they saw was heartbreaking..
Those who were killed were left on the park itself and the people of the town is burying them In tears... Why must they suffer like this? Why the children? Why? Dan asks himself, He knows.. he's killed... But... That's something else because he was under control sort but these..
These humans, they killed their kind in cold blood just because they were slightly different. "Danny?" The two hears a saddened female voice behind them. "It's Dante. Not Danny." Dante looked Back behind him. "Dash Baxter... You survived huh.." Dante says bluntly with a cold tone.
"Yeah I guess... Where's... Where's Danny?" Dash asks nervously and averted his gaze.. "They Killed... Uhm... Kwan... Star barely survived... Paulina is not fine tho..." Dash says following the two." Dante pulls him closer and hugs him to comfort the poor teenager. Dash just broke down, "They... They killed my friends... I—..." He sobbed, his jacket was still tainted with blood from his friend Kwan.
"I know... I'm sorry... Look... Danny is in danger.... Do you think you can help us?" Dante asks and Dash nodded.. "yk what... I'm tired of... Being me... So... I will help... That's the only thing I can do." Dash nods and the three ran towards Fenton works but as they do so they encounter Valerie Gray, Red Huntress.
"Where's Phantom." She asks bluntly without greetings, her voice hoarse and Rough presumably from crying. "Fenton Laboratory... They Have Danny." Jazz says and walks past her.
"Let me come with you .. I want to Save him too." Val says from behind Jazz. "Do what you want to do Valerie... The longer we pause the longer he suffers. Valerie nods and ran with them with her board.
[𝙵𝚎𝚗𝚝𝚘𝚗 𝚆𝚘𝚛𝚔𝚜 , 6:35 𝙿𝙼]
Dash tackled open the door, "God that's one tough door you have—" he says as he pats his numbing shoulder. And they all went inside, "I'll get the metal Door." Dante says and slams it open with force.
They saw Danny in ghost form strapped on the table bleeding out unconscious. "oh my god.." dash looked away unable to look at what the Fenton's did to Danny.
They weren't home which was good but also bad at the same time as that meant they're probably somewhere with the GIW. Valerie and Jazz rushed to Danny's Side. Dante found a stitch. "Let me." Dante says as Valerie kept Danny pumped to a new bag of Pure Ectoplasm as Dante quickly stitched his Wounds with Ecto Fishing Lines. Although a bit rough to the sides he didn't care right now. What we cares about is Danny's Livelihood.
Dante was holding back his tears and Valeria Checked the Collar on Danny's neck. "I can take off the muzzle but I don't know about the collar..." She says "take off the Muzzle.. Quickly Val..." Jazz says as she held onto the IV bag of Pure Ectoplasm that's keeping Danny Alive.
Dash was guarding by the door of the basement making sure the Fenton's aren't home yet. He was scared, nervous even, regretful as well.. Amity Park is no longer a safe place to live. It's no longer a home.
Val quickly removed the Collar with Utmost Care and Tossed it away, She Frantically looked at Dan who was finishing up the last stitches.
"... Done. Let's scram!" Dante carried Danny gently and Ran up the stairs and Dash followed the 3, running out the door and into the street far from FentonWorks they hope. "Oh my Danny... Finally... We're finally getting Danny out.... Finally he's Saf—" they heard a gunshot and Jazz Fell to the ground. The other 3 froze. "JAS—" Valerie pushed Dash away and he barely dodged another Bullet.
They saw the Fenton's and GIW Behind them. Dash was terrified but Urged Dante to keep running. "JASMINE!" Valerie yelled out as she shielded herself from the gunshots.
"Go.... Just....G-go... Please... Keep Danny sa—" she was shot another time and this time it hit her head. She bled out on the side walk and Valerie was in utter shock, the Fenton's just killed their daughter... Oh my god... Her heart was racing and she flew away with her board and shield still covering her.
Dante had made themselves Invisible and Running into the Forest. Valerie had a tracker on them to make sure he can keep up on them. Why must them, children be the only logical people in this town. Why must the adults be the one to be the monsters... Valerie did not know... But at the moment she couldn't care. What cared for more is what's gonna happen in the future.
What will be the future for them?

[Yandere Time Traveler]
Chapter One:
Tumblr media
[Narrator PO.V]
This is the story of a boy named Raymond Smith, a young adult who has been treated very badly by life since he was born, since he is the son of a pair of narcissistic and abusive parents who pressured him academically to be perfect in EVERYTHING, or else they punished him physically, psychologically and emotionally speaking.
On several occasions Raymond went to school in long sleeves, covering the bruises, scratches and physical marks his parents gave him when they were angry with him. At school things were not much different, as day after day he was cornered, mistreated, harassed and bullied by his classmates; the leading bully being an upper-class boy named Darius who took advantage of Raymond's weakness day after day.
He would insult him, hit him, slap him, push him, kick him and make fun of him; he would throw books, food and drinks at him, knowing that he would never fight back out of fear and low self-esteem. Even so, neither parents nor teachers cared about him, and he found himself totally alone in those dark years when he even considered committing suicide due to the despair, depression and loneliness he felt that year.
Even so, he was a smart and studious boy (even if it was because of pressure from his parents), but he didn't think that, since he had a bad perception of himself. Things continued like this until the 4th year of high school, which was when Darius was transferred to a different school (although his two friends stayed there), and at that same time a new cute girl arrived, named (Y/n) (Y/ln), being the ONLY one who approached him kindly.
She became his best friend and his emotional support, both in and out of school. They talked a lot during breaks, online, and she would invite him to her house for dinner. She also ended up being very important to him, both by supporting him and being a shoulder to cry on and by helping him to trust himself more and overcome, being his beautiful light in the middle of his darkness.
Time passed and they both graduated with honors, applying to good universities, although they parted ways. Eventually, Raymond graduated at the top of his class; he went to work for his current company where they met again at the office, which made them both happy.
But Darius wouldn't let Raymond get close to (Y/n), as he didn't want their past to come to light (also because he was very jealous, obsessive and possessive with [Y/n]). The latter escalated to the point where (T/n) herself broke off their engagement due to his toxicity, which escalated to the point where Darius kidnapped his ex-fiancée in his apartment after work.
Raymond noticed this, and called the police and followed Darius to his apartment, willing to do anything to save her.
Upon arriving, the police were nearby but he didn't want to waste any time, so Raymond stormed into the apartment, determined to get his beloved out before Darius did anything to her. They exchanged blows, with Raymond taking the brunt of the blow, and in the end, Darius beat him so hard that Raymond ended up falling and hitting his head hard on the corner of a table, which caused his death.
Tumblr media
Raymond woke up startled and frightened in his bed. Sweat was pouring down his forehead as he tried to calm himself down.
--What the hell was that dream?!-- He asked himself. He couldn't explain how or why he had that "dream" or rather, "nightmare". Anyway, he decided to call (Y/n) to see if she was okay, but when he looked at her cell phone, he noticed something very strange.
Monday, August 10 - 2015
4:00 AM
--This… is my old phone, and this date… is not today-- He then tried to unlock his phone with previous passwords and failed, until he entered the birthday of his beloved (Y/n). He reviewed old photos and videos, old conversations, social networks and news from the year 2015, which began to give him the impression that he… traveled nine years into the past.
-The end.
So, wat do you think about it?

Billy Hargrove x Reader
MASTERLIST
NIGHTMARE
Warning : nothing... I guess.
WC; 1k
#TALKISSA; Maybe it's like, Billy survived the Starcourt incident, he had a lot of nightmares after that incident and you were always beside him to calm him down.
Tumblr media
Ever since the incident at Starcourt Billy couldn't stop having nightmares. After he underwent some kind of therapy the doctor said that he was post-traumatic, Billy didn't talk much and he really wasn't the Billy The Asshole that Max knew. This made you worried, the host transfer happened suddenly to Heather Holloway, you didn't know the rest of the story but you were worried about Billy's changes.
Max was a little surprised but nothing serious since she told you she had it once last year. What you're worried about is Billy.
You had no one in Hawkins because both of your parents had died, so you lived at the Mayfield or Hargrove residences. Apart from accompanying Billy and helping him through his therapy— Billy's father, Neil, didn't seem upset, perhaps because Billy's quiet attitude made him look like he was obeying his father's rules so Neil didn't interfere too much in the matter.
And now you wake up in the night,
02:00 A.M
You turned to your side where Billy was already sweating all over his face, he was pronouncing words that you couldn't digest properly and his whole body was shaking. You really don't know what to do since Doctor Kelly— Billy's therapist didn't mention anything about this.
So, you decided to gently touch his chest to wake him up, you knew he was having a nightmare again,
"Billy," you called softly while stroking his chest.
He didn't wake up, making you move your body closer to him and caress his sweaty face, "Billy, wake up."
"Billy—"
Your words were cut off by Billy's irregular breathing, he suddenly woke up, surprising you because of his aggressive reaction when he got out of bed.
"Hey, hey, it's just me." You said gently stroking his back and tucking his curly hair behind his ear, "It's okay. It was just a bad dream, we know it's not real, Billy. You've been through it, you've almost been through it all. Everything will be fine, you'll be fine and I—"
Billy immediately hugged you, buried his head on your shoulder and he started crying because you felt the wet water on the shoulder of your shirt. You just stay silent, of course he had nightmares many times, but he was never like this, he would just smile faintly and say that he was okay then you both went back to sleep.
But this time? This is something different.
You put your hands around his neck and gently stroked the rest of his hair that was hanging around his neck.
"It's okay. It'll be okay. I'm sorry."
Sorry. That's all you can say because he had to go through something this horrible. Seeing him like this... It will only make your heart split into several parts. He always makes you happy in his own way, maybe from his efforts that will get a doll in the toy park that you want, and he will study diligently so he can go to the same university as you. But you are not sure whether your affection for him can be felt by him.
You keep stroking his hair,
The sound of the door creaking, you looked to see who it was, and only found Max with a worried look on her face, you nodded to tell her that everything was fine.
Not long after, you take Billy into the kitchen for a glass of water to win him over.
As soon as he gulped down the water, you continued to look at him, waiting for him to tell you what made him cry so hard.
"I'm sorry."
You grabbed his hand, "For what?"
"Your clothes are wet because of me."
You smiled slightly and stood in front of him to stroke his hair and kiss his forehead, "There's nothing to apologize for."
Billy locked you between his legs, wrapped his arms around your waist and buried his head in your chest. You continued running your fingers through his hair, he once said that what you did to his hair made him relax for a moment. Accompanied by the lullaby that your mother used to sing when you were little, there is nothing more soothing than your melodious voice to his ears.
"I had a nightmare." Billy said then looked up to look at you. You nodded, "Mhm, are you ready to tell me about them?"
"It's about you."
You nodded and paid close attention to his words,
"Instead of Heather being stabbed by that big giant monster, it's you. I was there and couldn't do anything watching you slowly being swallowed by that monster. That voice kept coming back to me, saying I wasn't completely free from it and it would continue after you until its really gets you." Billy said, followed by him taking a breath, you continued to calm him by stroking his back, "I'm scared. I'm scared of losing you, I don't want to lose you, I can't."
"Sshhh," You shook your head and cupped his cheeks, "You won't lose me, you won't lose anyone. Remember what Doctor Kelly said? They're just traces left behind. You'll be fine, I'll be fine. I'll stay by your side as long as you need me, Billy."
"I will always need you."
You chuckled, "I'm glad you're starting to open up about your dreams. Can we do them more often? It'll make things better for you. How does that sound?"
Billy nodded, "I like it."
"Good. Want to go back to bed?"
Billy nodded again.
After that, Billy and you went back to his room to continue sleeping. Billy didn't let you escape from his grasp, he buried you in his chest so you couldn't go anywhere, or more precisely, no one could take you from him. Since right now you are the safest place he has, he will protect you under any circumstances. Even though he should be the one who needs to be protected.
His life is filled with the fragility he experiences, he feels like he is not alive, and only you are able to make him feel alive and feel like he is being treated properly. He loves you with all the strengths and weaknesses that you have— even though he himself is not sure that you have any weaknesses.

Camp Wiegman - Part 3
Lucy Bronze x Ona Batlle
Tumblr media
Alternate Universe : Military School
Words : 6k
Masterlist
———————————————————————
Wednesday, October 7; 6:00 AM - Ona and Alexia's Room.
Once again, that damn alarm clock that sounds like a firehouse siren. It never stops. I wonder how I missed it yesterday! I must have been really tired not to hear it. I press my pillow against my ears, which can't take this shrill, repetitive noise anymore. I only release the pressure once it stops. I need to make the effort to get up today if I want to avoid Bronze' wrath a second time. She exhausted me so much yesterday that I slept straight through the imposed curfew. It's been a long time since I had a full night's sleep. I grimace, letting out a groan as I sit up. Damn it!
"Sore muscles?" Alexia mocks, already up.
"More than a little, damn it."
"You'll get used to it, don't worry!"
"I've been hearing that since I got here."
"Because it's true. Hurry up if you don't want even more sore muscles. We only have fifteen minutes to get ready before inspection," she tells me.
"Fifteen minutes?!" I repeat. "Are you kidding me?"
"If only," she laughs.
I think I've never gotten up so fast, realizing my lateness as I see Alexia already freshly dressed and made up. I'm a dead girl if I'm not ready on time. Bronze threatened to make me endure worse than yesterday if that happened, and I'm not sure I can survive it. I rush to the bathroom with the right uniform. Turns out I got sent back from my first class for wearing the "sports uniform." Alexia had warned me, but exhaustion had taken over. As a result, I had to come back to my room to return to class in the proper attire. An awful outfit, by the way. It's composed of my combat boots, black pants, a khaki t-shirt, and my infamous military jacket. I put it all on before doing my makeup and fixing my hair. I now have two little minutes left to make my bed. I almost run to it to finish before her arrival. Alexia is already ready at the foot of her bed while I wrestle with my duvet. I panic, realizing the mess I'm in. I get all mixed up and can't remember the right steps.
"How do you manage to be so quick? Damn it! I can't make this damn bed again!"
I throw the duvet on the floor in a fit of anger. My bed looked like a mess anyway, so showing her my work or this pile is the same.
"Is there a problem, Batlle?"
I jump at the sound of her voice. That's it, I'm screwed. I turn around as slowly as possible to see her behind me. I feel intimidated by her stance, arms crossed, eyebrow raised. Alexia is holding back laughter behind her. I admit if it didn't concern me, I'd find this situation somewhat amusing. But since it does concern me, it's immediately less funny.
"Look at me when I talk to you!"
My eyes automatically return to her. Her sharp tone leaves no choice but to listen. She then turns to Alexia, who immediately stops giggling.
"No problem, Bronze," I reply, emphasizing her name. "Been fishing for information, Batlle?" "So it seems... Isn't Engen supposed to inspect the rooms in the morning?"
I cast my eyes on my informant, none other than Alexia. She doesn't dare move since Bronze looked at her. She's as straight as a rod with her hands clasped behind her back. It's like we're facing our section leader in the army... Almost the case.
"Stop looking at her, you're talking to me!" "Then answer me." "I'm personally in charge of this room while you adapt." "How lucky," I said sarcastically. "You said it," she smiles. "You can go, Putellas."
Alexia thanks her in a barely audible voice and flees the room, abandoning me with the tyrant. Thanks for the support! I fix my gaze on Bronze once the door closes at her request. As much as I want to stand up to her... It's a different story when she's in front of me. She seems cold and confident. It's no wonder everyone is afraid of her. However, I still plan to devise an attack plan against her. I just need to wait for the right moment and regain my strength.
"Well, now that your distraction is outside, will you answer me seriously?" "Why is she allowed to leave and not me?" "Don't dodge my question. You know perfectly well why you're staying here." "I don't want to miss breakfast again!"
"I gave you a pain au chocolat without being obliged, as far as I know. Now, tell me what your problem is. We'll see if you have time to get there."
She annoys me with her insistence on having things her way. She didn't earn her nickname for nothing! I'm no longer used to taking orders. I wait to see if she gives up without an answer, but she remains very patient. I comply, stepping aside to show her the disastrous state of my bed.
"I tried to remake it, but I can't do it anymore," I admitted. "You did it in front of me yesterday."
I relax when I realize she's not angry. She's just trying to understand what's going on. Maybe I'll avoid punishment if I stay honest.
"So, will you explain?"
"I just told you," I growled. "I'm not used to making my bed like this! You can't expect me to get it right overnight! Plus, I panicked because of your damn pressure!"
I realize what I just let slip when I see the little smile forming on her face. Damn it! I didn't want her to know something like that. She now knows she already has an influence over me.
"Alright, let's make a deal."
"I fear the worst," I mumbled.
"Hey, I'm doing this for you, just to be clear."
"Yeah, yeah..." I said unconvincingly.
"I'm willing to show you how to make your bed again so you know how to do it in the future, and you can have your breakfast. In return, we'll meet tonight after your classes."
"For what reason?"
"Do you really think you'll get away with nothing? I warned you that you'd be punished if you weren't ready on time today."
"I'm not gaining much in your proposal!" "You gain my help and your breakfast. That's a lot from me."
In the end, I won't escape this punishment... I weigh the pros and cons, even though the answer should be obvious since, in any case, she won't let me leave without making my bed and receiving my punishment.
"Alright, fine. I'll go with your proposal." "Good. I'll show you this time. Watch carefully and then do it yourself, okay?" "Okay..." "Come closer and observe carefully."
I move forward as she shakes out my duvet, letting it fall onto my bed. Like yesterday, she starts at the corners at the foot of the bed. She takes her time to show me each fold again, making sure I'm following. Once that's done, she smooths the duvet upwards before tucking it neatly under the pillow. She then tucks the excess sides under the mattress, which doesn’t seem to weigh much. I observe the flawless result. She must be well-trained to do it so quickly and perfectly.
"Got it?" "I think so..."
"No, you need to be sure. If you tell me you got it and tomorrow you’re not ready on time, I won’t want to hear any excuses when I punish you."
"You're such a pain," I mutter. "Excuse me?!" "Can I try again before giving you my answer?" "If you want."
I move to undo the bed, but her arm stops me.
"Don’t ever say something like that again. The fact that you even dare to address me informally is too much. Don’t push it too far, or you’ll regret it bitterly. Are we clear?"
"Yeah..." "Yes," she corrects me. "Repeat." "Yes," I growl. "Good," she says, lowering her arm. "Now try again."
I undo the bed in one go, then start from where she began. I try to replicate what she just showed me, starting with one corner, then the other. It's the hardest part. Once done, I smooth it upwards and tuck it under the pillow. I was about to tuck one side, but her voice stops me.
"Pull the duvet more, there are still wrinkles."
"Like this?" I ask, following her instructions.
"A bit more. Don’t hold back. The duvet is too caught at the foot of the bed to come out."
I follow her advice and pull harder. I let go of the duvet once it’s nicely stretched, without any wrinkles.
"Good, now tuck the sides under the mattress."
I do as instructed, starting with my side, then the other. I smile at the result, better than yesterday. I glance at my supervisor on the other side.
"It’s not so hard, is it?"
"No..."
"Do you feel confident you can do it, or do you need another try?"
"I think I'm good."
"Sure? I don’t want to hear any complaints if you’re late because of this tomorrow."
"Yes, I’m sure. I’ll face the consequences."
"Alright, you can go then. We’ll meet after your classes. What time do you finish?"
"Four o'clock, I think."
"Where’s your schedule?"
I point to my desk where it’s pinned to the wall. I don’t know my hours yet, so I keep it in plain sight. She approaches to look at it closely.
"Four o'clock, that's right. See you later." "See you later, Commander."
I give her my best sarcastic smile before leaving my room. I hate the idea of another punishment tonight. It’s not like my lateness was my fault. I just couldn’t make that damn bed! I dread what she has in store for me. I hope it’s not more laps around the field. Apparently, that’s her specialty according to Leah. Well, at least I get my breakfast. I arrive at the buffet, greeting the staff as I serve myself. I’m the last one, but I'm glad to find my precious hot chocolate and morning pastry. I turn towards the room once done. I smile, spotting my roommate and her friends at their table. I quickly join them.
"Oooh, here’s the survivor!" Alba mocks as I arrive.
"Hey," I say, sitting down.
"You've already made a splash since yesterday!" Pina informs me.
"Everyone’s talking about you!" Patri adds. "You’re building quite a reputation!"
"Really? Why?" I ask before taking a bite of my pastry.
"They say you have the guts to stand up to Bronze," Lotte says. "Is it true you address her informally?"
"Maybe," I answer vaguely. "I don’t see what’s so special about it." "We see it very clearly," Alexia mocks. "Did you get away with nothing this morning?" "I have to meet her after my classes." "That smells like punishment!" comments Alba. "It is. She told me." "And you’re not bothered?" "Why would I be? I plan to prepare something much worse for her." "You've got balls," Alexia comments.
I know they think I’m crazy, but I’m not changing my mind. I finish my meal, continuing to chat since we have time. Then we head slowly towards the classroom buildings, with little motivation on my part. I met my first teachers yesterday. They’re all old fogies who aren’t even fifty yet. I’m curious about today's teachers since I was bored to death yesterday. I was on the verge of falling asleep, but Alexia kept me awake by mentioning the words "expulsion" and "Bronze." It seems that behavior like that leads to expulsions, like being late. I wasn’t going to tempt fate after spending my morning with Bronze. Knowing her a bit better, I doubt she’d let something like that slide. She doesn’t seem like someone who appreciates such behavior. Instead, I tried to follow the lesson as best I could. It was difficult, not having been in a classroom for two years. Today, it’s the same. I take my place next to Alexia with a long sigh. I have a feeling today will be as long as yesterday given the new teacher in front of me.
Wednesday, October 7; 4:10 PM - Ona and Alexia's Room.
I was wrong this morning. My day ended up going faster than expected. Maybe because I haven’t seen my supervisor since this morning. It put me in a good mood. At least, as much as I can be here. Adjusting is difficult. There's not much difference from a military camp. It’s likely there’s more
freedom there. I’m happy Alexia is here to brighten my days. She reminds me of my best friend from Barcelona. She’s just as energetic. I'm lucky to have her in my class, even if she’s too serious for my taste. I managed to make her laugh several times today. We got remarks, but nothing alarming enough to stop us. I'm still relieved it’s over. I’m supposed to meet Bronze, but I didn’t get any instructions on where to meet. So I followed Alexia to our room where she wants to finish her homework before joining her friends in the common room. I plan to do the same if Bronze doesn’t show up. She’ll have to find me if she wants to see me. I’m not chasing after her! I have a tiny hope she’s forgotten, but I doubt it. In the meantime, I chat with Ale about our day on the way back. She tells me a story about Patri and Claudia during their chemistry class last year. Apparently, they did an experiment that almost set the school on fire, leading to a summons and a big punishment. I can’t stop laughing with Alexia, who has a knack for making stories funny. She did the same at lunch, and it’s rare for me to laugh so sincerely over so little. My laughter stops abruptly when we open our room door. Damn... My last hopes evaporate seeing Bronze waiting for me, holding my sports uniform.
"It’s about time. Go change," she orders.
I find myself holding my uniform without even having entered my room. Her determination scares me for what’s next. Alexia passes by her, greeting her and making herself small. She confessed to me that she’s afraid of her for some reason and respects her greatly. I understand, but that doesn’t mean I’ll react the same way.
"Please... Not laps again, please! I did everything you asked! It’s not my fault I couldn’t do it." "Already begging, Ona? I thought you were braver than that."
I narrow my eyes at her jab. Not only is she provoking me, but she’s also implying I’m already giving in. I’d make her eat her smug smile if I could! So she’d understand it’s not the case.
"No, I just have a lot of sore muscles because of you," I retort.
-  That mean that your body needed it. Now go change.
-  Damn it, you’re annoying, I grumbled. Promise me you won’t make me do any sports first.
-  Change your tone with me. I haven’t planned any sports, but I might add some to my list if you keep being cheeky. Maybe you’ll understand what it’s like when I really annoy you.
-  Fine, I was just joking, I rolled my eyes.
-  Do I need to drag you by force to make you listen? she threatened me. I sighed as I walked into the bathroom. I envied Alexia, who was sitting on her bed doing her homework. Her encouraging smile was the last thing I saw before closing the door without locking it, as per Bronze’s orders. I tried to hurry, but the muscle soreness made things difficult, especially with my pants. I was curious to find out what I was going to do if I wasn’t running. When I opened the door again, Bronze was waiting with her arms crossed and her foot tapping nervously on the floor.
- Let’s go. Bronze went ahead while I said goodbye to Alexia, who wished me good luck. I followed her through the corridors, putting my hands in my pockets to annoy her a bit.
- So, Bronze, what’s the plan for today? I asked when I caught up with her.
-  Stop being cheeky, I won’t repeat myself. You weren’t so smart-mouthed yesterday, on the field.
-  Me? Cheeky? I laughed. Nonsense!
-  Start by taking your hands out of your pockets.
-  That’s nothing bad!
-  Batlle ! she snapped. When I tell you something, you obey. I took them out, afraid she would follow through on her previous threats. In other circumstances, I wouldn’t have done it, but now I wasn’t sure I could handle another sports session with my aching thighs. At least I had managed to annoy her as I wanted. We entered the gym, making me fear the worst... I hoped she kept her word and that I wouldn’t do any sports. I forced myself to keep up with her quick pace. It was my first time here. Wiegman hadn’t given me a tour, and I hadn’t had any sports yet. She walked down several corridors of the new building before opening one of the many doors in a hallway. She stepped aside to let me enter first. I walked in cautiously, too disturbed by the room. It was a locker room, so what? My supervisor pushed me in the back to make me go faster. It was a new room with benches and hooks lining the right wall. I stopped in the middle, where there was an open frame facing the benches. Damn... I understood our presence here when I saw the state of the communal showers. They were corroded by lime due to extensive use. Bronze had placed cleaning supplies on the floor. I had no more doubts about my punishment tonight.
-  Is this a joke? I blurted out.
-  No sports. Isn’t that what you wanted?
-  Maybe, but not this! I’m not a fucking maid !
-  Too bad, you’ll have to improvise then.
-  Stop messing with me! Is there really nothing else?
-  No, there isn’t. You’re not in a position to negotiate with me, so accept your punishment.
-  Because I will be someday?
-  Start by accepting your punishments and changing your behavior, then we’ll talk about it. She had a cold-bloodedness that impressed me. I gave up, realizing that I was indeed not the one in control of the situation right now.
-  Okay, I resigned. Will you leave me alone?
-  No. I’ll be supervising you to ensure you do your work, but first, we’ll have a talk.
-  About what? I asked, intrigued.
-  Yesterday, you told me you didn’t know the rules, so I’ll explain the most important ones to make it clear. That way, you’ll be warned and won’t have any excuses.
-  Oh, yeah. At least I’ll know why I’m being punished.
- Good, take a seat.
I sat on the bench she pointed to and noticed a whiteboard with bullet points on it that I hadn’t seen before. The writing, which I guessed was hers, was very neat. I was ready to pay attention to the rules. I planned to follow them while scheming my revenge and getting out of this place. The fewer rules I broke, the less she’d be on my back. It would take some effort to comply, based on what I could already see on the board.
-  First, wake-up is at six o’clock, she began, pointing to the first bullet point. You should know that by now.
-  Hard to miss the alarm anyway.
-  Inspection is fifteen minutes later, she continued, ignoring my remark. You must be ready by then, in uniform, and with your bed made perfectly.
-  Is it a disaster if I’m not wearing makeup when you come?
-  No. You’ll have access to your room after your meal. The purpose of the inspection is to see if you’re in uniform and if your room is tidy.
-  Okay, I sighed.
-  A problem?
-  No... I was just wondering why wake-up is so early.
-  Simply to prevent you from being too tired in class.
-  No, actually! I countered. By getting up so early, we’re definitely more tired. She shook her head. It was the first time I appreciated her smile and our conversation. It wasn’t an order or a dispute for once. I almost forgot her cold and unbearable personality.
-  You don’t understand anything.
-  No, indeed, I frowned.
-  Let’s move on to the third rule before the explanations, shall we? I nodded, curious to hear her arguments. For me, six o’clock was not a time to get up. It was way too early, especially after the year I just lived. I had my own schedule.
-  So, curfew is at ten o’clock, but Alexia must have already told you that.
-  Yeah.
-  An instructor can enter the room at any time from that hour to check that you’re asleep.
-  And what if we can’t sleep that early? That was my case the first night.
-  Is that why you didn’t get up the first day?
-  Yeah, I fell asleep around one in the morning.
-  I see. You’ll soon get into the rhythm, don’t worry. What were your usual sleep hours before coming here?
-  Well... I thought. I’d say four o’clock until noon most of the time. She raised an eyebrow at my honesty. She probably didn’t expect that. Understandable. She must have thought I was in school, but that wasn’t the case. I did nothing with my days, so I had my own schedule.
-  You didn’t have classes?
-  No. I stopped studying after high school.
-  How come you’re in the final year then?
-  No idea, I shrugged. I’m where they told me to go.
-  Hmm, she replied skeptically. Let’s get back to the main subject. Wiegman kept her word about the file. She didn’t seem to know the reasons for my presence, given how intrigued she was. However, she didn’t ask any questions. I wouldn’t have answered anyway. This school isn’t going to change me. If my mother thinks so, she’s an idiot.
-  As for my explanation, the curfew ensures eight hours of sleep until six o’clock and prevents you from staying up at impossible hours at night.
-  What difference does it make? We could just wake up later in the morning, and it would be the same.
-  No, it’s not the same. By taking away an hour at night, we restrict your use of electronic devices. You’re more likely to use them at night than in the morning. Besides, you have more time to eat and be together instead of communicating with the outside world.
-  Everything we do at night, we can do in the morning too, I retorted.
-  I assure you, you can’t. Even if that’s the case, it allows you to be fully awake for your classes. You have no excuse for being tired. Explained this way, the schedule seemed great, but I remained skeptical. It’s true that I was more awake in class this morning compared to my high school memories. The problem is, it’s useless if I have teachers who put me to sleep right after. I kept this response to myself, not wanting to get scolded for saying such a thing.
-  Still, six o’clock is way too early.
-  You’ll get used to it. You’ll see, in a week, your previous schedule will be a thing of the past, and you’ll be back on track. Can I continue now?
-  Hmm.
-  Okay, then, no electronic devices outside the rooms, whether it’s a phone, Mac, or any other device, she listed. You should already know this since I haven’t had to reprimand you in two days. Am I wrong?
- I know, yes. Why is it forbidden?
She raised an eyebrow at my question. My participation must have surprised her, or maybe it was just my questions. We were only at the fourth point, and I hadn’t remained silent on any of them. I’m naturally curious. I like to know the why and how.
- Each student is here for specific reasons... Excessive drug use, family problems, or simply
behavioral issues, for example. -
I felt concerned about all the points she just mentioned. It was impressive. Had she already figured me out? It’s very likely, but I don’t see how.
-  The problems are the same for all students?
-  Mostly what I just mentioned. Why?
-  No reason... So, why no devices?
-  The purpose of being here is to solve your problems while continuing your studies. Can you understand that?
-  Hmm.
-  With this rule, we simply forbid all means of communication during the day. The goal is for you to focus on yourself and only yourself, without external pressure. This rule was more understandable than the previous one. I could have responded that I didn’t want help, but I refrained. We would enter a debate that I would surely lose. I simply nodded.
-  If I see you with something like that, I won’t hesitate to confiscate it for an indefinite period. Agreed?
-  Yeah... So, we’re allowed to use them in the room?
-  Yes, of course. This will be a rule to follow. I’m not risking losing my phone. It would mean cutting off communication with Joan and my best friend. "Next rule," she continues. "Show respect to educators," she reads from the board. "By educators, I mean the teachers, instructors, and the rest of the staff. Just because I'm in charge of you doesn’t mean you should disrespect my colleagues." I nod, not knowing what else to say. I'm not going to ask for the reasons behind this rule. "And no lateness will be tolerated. Be on time in the morning, when I give you an appointment, or even in class. Teachers have been instructed not to let you in if you're late. You’ll be sent straight to me."
"And I imagine I’ll have a hard time?"
"You'll find out soon enough if it happens. Also, I want you to behave in class. Don’t be cheeky, don’t fall asleep, and avoid excessive chatting. Try to show interest and participate."
"That’s going to be hard..."
"I'm serious, Ona. I'll be aware of your behavior in class and I’ll step in if it gets out of hand. I'm going to make sure you get through this year."
"Good luck with that."
"At least avoid getting expelled. You’d seriously piss me off if that happens and that won't be good for you."
"OK." She looks at the board one last time, making sure she's covered all the points.
"Well, I’ve said what I needed to say. Outside of class, you have free rein. The only exception is when I ask you to be with me. Is that clear?"
"Yeah, I guess. Wake-up, check-in, curfew, no lateness or disrespect," I summarize. "Perfect. Now, I believe you have a task waiting for you."
She points her thumb at the communal showers. I sigh heavily, having forgotten about that detail amidst everything else.
"Does every sanction mean a punishment?" I ask.
"Exactly. This morning you were late and you talked back to me," she states. "You can try anything behind my back, nothing will escape me."
Leah has taught me a lot about her, including this detail, which doesn’t surprise me. I pick up the sponge lying on the floor with tongs. In the end, I'd rather have yesterday’s punishment. This one is pure humiliation. Especially since Bronze sits on the bench, right in front of the showers to have a perfect view.
"She’s not going to eat you," she comments. "Come on, start, I don’t plan on staying here all night." "You really have no pity." "I’m not here to have pity, Ona."
She takes a book from the bench, which she had probably prepared, and starts reading. I pick up the gloves from the floor since I’m not even allowed to use a mop for cleaning. I put them on and dip the sponge in the soapy water. I start with the stalls, where the lime scale is clearly visible on the matte black glass. I try as best as I can to scrub the top of the first stall with my small stature. I have to jump to reach it. I grumble mentally to avoid giving my supervisor the satisfaction of hearing me complain aloud. I manage to finish two stalls in half an hour. It’s far from perfect, but I want to finish the other eight and the floor as quickly as possible. I’m already exhausted. I take a break to relieve my thighs, which are already aching. Not to mention my arms, given the intensity I’m putting into it. I glance at Bronze, who remains absorbed in her book.
"Stop daydreaming, Ona."
How does she manage to see me without looking up? I sigh and get back to work. If someone had told me one day I’d be on all fours scrubbing the floor of a communal shower, I’d have laughed in their face. I hate Bronze for making me go through this.
"You know, if you followed the rules, I wouldn’t punish you." "Sorry, but rules and I aren’t very good friends," I grumble. "Then you only have yourself to blame for your punishments." "And you too since you’re the one inflicting them on me."
"I’m just doing my job," she replies, closing her book. "Let me tell you something. The less effort you make to follow the rules, the more I’ll be on your back. We can continue like this until the end of the year if necessary."
"What?!"
I straighten up on my knees at this news. I wipe my forehead with my arm, which is dripping with sweat from scrubbing so hard.
"What do you mean, until the end of the year? I was told this was only temporary until I adapted!"
"Not exactly. I’ll be your supervisor until your behavior changes. Given the hothead you are, we’re far from that."
"What a joke!" I spit bitterly, getting back to work. "You’re right, I’m not going to change. I don’t even plan on staying here."
"And where do you plan on going?" she asks, curious.
"Far from this crappy school, far from this town, and especially far from people who won’t leave me alone!"
"That’s going to be complicated. You’re not going anywhere with me." "We’ll see about that. I’m not following your rules, Bronze. I’m not like all those other students."
"You’re not going anywhere. I’ll make sure to help you whether you want it or not. After this experience, I guarantee you won’t be that little daddy’s princess who can do whatever she wants anymore."
"Damn it, you don’t even know me!" I yell, throwing my sponge at her face. "I don’t want your damn help, so leave me alone! It’s precisely people like you I want to get away from!"
I can’t control my anger after she touched the one point she shouldn’t have. Her eyes remain closed from the impact of the sponge. I’ll probably pay for this, but I don’t care. It was the last straw, the one thing not to say. If she wanted to affect me, she succeeded! She slowly opens her eyes.
"Pick it up." "I’m not your dog, damn it!"
I throw the gloves next to the bucket and leave the room to avoid confrontation. She can go to hell with her damn rules! She chases me down the hall, calling my name, but I keep going. I surprisingly find the exit without getting lost. I barely have time to accelerate and touch the handle before I’m pinned against the door roughly. She blocks all my movements with her body and pins my wrists on either side of my head. I struggle with rage, but she perfectly channels my strength.
"Let go of me!" "No. Stop fighting back," she says calmly.
I keep moving as much as I can under her grip, which I hate. She has no right to touch me; I don’t want her to! Yet she tightens her hold to completely stop my movements. I press my forehead against the door, closing my eyes to calm down. I must not have a panic attack here. Once I’ve calmed down, she grabs my arm and drags me back to the locker room. She pushes me inside and locks the door.
"Get back to work. We’ll leave here when I decide," she says, resuming her place.
I don’t understand how she can stay so calm while I’m a volcano on the brink of eruption. If I wasn’t sure before, I now know I hate this girl.
Wednesday, October 7th; 8:05 PM - Ona and Alexia's Room
I slam the door of my room without holding back. I'm relieved to find it empty. We're two hours away from curfew. Alexia must be in the common room with the others. If it's like yesterday, I have about an hour before she returns. I'm feeling really down since my interaction with Bronze. I didn't even go to eat, even though she allowed me to. I just needed to be alone. She drained me physically and mentally. I'm dirty and wet from crawling on the floor. It took me four hours to clean everything. Bronze stopped me at some point. The result was far from perfect, but she seemed satisfied that I finished. Now, I plan to decompress under hot water and get to bed. I find a pj set consisting of a t-shirt and shorts, and then I lock myself in the bathroom. Once my shower is finished, I slip under the covers. I'm exhausted and on edge. I think it's the right time to call my best friend. I've left her without news since my arrival. It was hard to reach her because I was never alone since I got here. Not to mention there's a one-hour time difference with Barcelona. I really need to talk to her right now. I miss her more than I thought. I take my phone from the nightstand and dial her number.
"Hello?" "Hey, Mapi."
"Oh my God, it's about time!" she says on the other end. "I thought they took your phone or something," she quickly replies.
"Sorry for not calling sooner," I chuckle. "Are you okay? Your voice sounds strange."
I'm so emotional and exhausted that I can't hold back the tears running down my cheeks against my will. It had to come out when I was on the phone with the person who knows me best.
"Yes, yes...," I say, wiping my cheeks. "Let's just say my mom really outdid herself this time."
"That bad? You don't like Manchester ? It's supposed to be a beautiful city." "Believe me, there's nothing to envy. It's been raining all the time so far."
"Well, it's definitely not Barcelona ! Come on, tell Auntie Mapi everything. You don't sound well. Is your new school nice?"
"It's a military school, Maps. Well, it's a private school with instructor supervision."
« Ouch, your mom really went all out this time... How did she get you in there? Isn't it supposed to be restricted?"
"The principal is a friend of my mom's," I sigh. "It's hell!"
I pour out the start of my new life to relieve myself. Mapi is like a sister to me. She regularly comes to my house and knows my mom well, who is also her doctor. I know she appreciates her, unlike me, but she always listens attentively when I criticize her, like now. She will always be there for me, and I'll never be grateful enough for everything she does for me. She's pulled me out of the water more than once when I was drowning.
"I have a little soldier on my back. You can't imagine the horror!" "A little soldier?" she laughs. "What's that all about?"
"A supervisor or something until I adapt. I have the worst instructor in the camp, apparently. A real viper! In two days, she's already managed to punish me twice!"
"The great Batlle punished? I would've loved to see that!" she giggles. "Is she at least good- looking?"
Mapi's question doesn't surprise me. From the moment we met, she declared loudly that she was a lesbian. She loves women... I mean she LOVES woman. We met in our first year of high school. She joined my class in the middle of the year and sat next to me. We hit it off immediately, and she quickly started flirting with me. I brushed her off, but I quickly grew attached to her unique personality. Within two months, she had turned all my convictions upside down. She was touchy and insistent. She made me doubt my sexuality. I ended up giving her a chance. It took her two months to become my first and only girlfriend for two years. It was my longest relationship. Today, we're best friends with a very close bond. She's the only one I truly trust. She's my only confidante, and I'm sure she won't judge me. That's why I'm not afraid to tell her what I think at this moment, even though I hate to admit it out loud.
"Brown hair, green eyes, taller than me. She's young and quite charming. I’d say she's twenty-five. She's pretty sexy in her uniform, but her personality ruins everything."
"Wow... She's totally your type!" she teases. "Did you hear the rest? She's a real tyrant! She's making my life impossible, damn it." "Have you thought about a counter-attack?" "Of course, she's going to regret it!" I say, making her laugh.
As I expected, our conversation turns to revenge ideas. Mapi has a wild imagination for this kind of thing. When we've covered everything, we switch to the latest gossip I've missed in Spain. Our call
ends a quarter of an hour later since it's late for her, and she has class tomorrow. I was lucky to reach her so late. Our conversation did me good. She managed to take my mind off things, as I hoped. I put my phone away and decide not to wait for curfew to fall asleep. I turn off all the lights and settle comfortably in my bed so that the door is behind me, to avoid being disturbed by Ale's arrival later. It doesn't take long for me to fall into a deep sleep.

Ethan and Kaycee have a little secret... there's a big reason to celebrate Father's Day this year. But when Kaycee's plans go awry, she learns Ethan's were just falling into place.
Story/Fandom: Open Heart (Post Series) Pairing: Ethan Rasmsey x Kaycee (F!MC) Rating: Teen Words: 1,600 Summary: Please see above A/N: Last year, I wrote Mother's Day fics and left the poor dads in my world unloved. lol This year, I switched that up a bit (sorry, moms!) I hope you enjoy this! :) Participating in @choicesjunechallenge2024 - Threshold/new beginning - I didn't have much of a chance to edit. I hope it's not dreadful! :)
Tumblr media
Kaycee had locked herself in the bathroom. A pretty drastic step for remaining undetected, considering Ethan was still fast asleep, but she wasn’t taking any chances. Confident her emotions were finally under control, she attempted to stand up from the bathtub’s edge where she had been perched, only to sit back down when another wave of tears washed over her.
“This is ridiculous,” she mumbled as she wiped her eyes with the sleeve of her bathrobe.
She was never out of bed before ten on a day off, but that had changed lately. Ethan finally respected her sleeping habits; based on the snoring she heard coming from down the hall, he had even adopted them for himself. But morning sickness was something else. Morning sickness had no respect, so being awake at 8:00 on a Sunday morning was no longer very strange.
Six weeks earlier, they celebrated Mother’s Day – at least Kaycee did. She had told her parents Ethan couldn’t get time off of work, but that wasn’t entirely true. Mother’s Day was difficult for him – he sold it as his disdain for Hallmark holidays, but Kaycee knew better. What she hadn’t known was a reason to change his mind already existed. Something she’d discover a week later, alone, in this same bathroom, and she still found it hard to believe it was true.
It was still early—so early that the only others who knew were Kaycee’s parents and Sienna. Based on the side-eye and attentiveness received by the rest of her team at Edenbrook, Kaycee was pretty sure they suspected, but she and Ethan had decided that until the first trimester ended, no one else was to know.
They had no way of knowing last Mother’s Day was of significance to them, but their baby-to-be made themselves known early enough for Father’s Day to be viewed differently, but Ethan put the kibosh on any celebration.
“It’s too soon,” he whispered, with his hand protectively laying on his wife’s stomach. “I don’t want to jinx anything.” “Jinx!” Kaycee sputtered. “You’ve never been superstitious! Not once, and now you decide to be!” “Maybe I finally have something to be superstitious about,” he smiled.
She had wanted to argue the point, but exhaustion took over, and when sleep was possible these days, she took it. But as the day got closer, Kaycee couldn’t let it go by without acknowledgment. Ethan Ramsey was going to be a dad! And as much as she wanted to scream that from the rooftops, she would respect his wishes and refrain. But the man wouldn’t deny her making the day special for him, of that she was sure.
So, she set her alarm for 7:30, just in case the nausea didn’t come through. Her goal was to make him a special breakfast—his favorite: eggs benedict with Hollandaise, rosemary-roasted potatoes, and mimosas—at least mimosas for him.
Kaycee being in the kitchen was a rarity – as much of a miracle as Ethan’s pending parenthood, some would say. But as she quietly took out the pots, pans, ingredients, and utensils that would make her husband’s first Father’s Day breakfast, she couldn’t have been more excited or relieved.
The waves of nausea that had become commonplace were nowhere to be seen until she attempted to drop that raw egg into the boiling water. Poaching an egg, how hard could it be? At another time, perhaps not hard at all, but during her first trimester, the faintest smell of boiling eggs sent her running to the bathroom. By the time she was well enough to return to the kitchen, the potatoes had started to burn. Tossing everything in the trash, she gave up. At least she could order in.
But that didn’t go as planned, either. The order had been placed, and instructions were to leave the bag with the doorman. The app notified her of their delivery, and she rushed downstairs, only to be disappointed again.
Henry, her favorite doorman, saw her face fall and was full of concern. “What’s the matter?” he asked.
“These aren’t eggs benedict! They sent tofu scrambles!”
“Well, that doesn’t sound anywhere near as appetizing!” the old man empathized.
“Ethan would hate it,” she said with a sigh. “Would you like it?”
Henry crinkled his nose. “I’m afraid I’ll have to side with Dr. Ramsey on this one – a true rarity,” he chuckled before offering to give it to someone in the maintenance department who would appreciate it. Grateful it wouldn’t go to waste, Kaycee got back into the elevator. But by the time she reached their floor, her hormones took over again, and her thoughts began to race.
She couldn’t get anything right. Why had she even attempted to cook? Everyone knew her skill set was best served outside of the kitchen. Would she be able to cook for her baby? She was going to be a terrible mother. She had already ruined Ethan’s first Father’s Day, after all, no matter that he was still sleeping. When she stumbled in the condo door, she headed right to the bathroom again. That’s how Kaycee found herself here, perched on the bathtub with a face full of snot and tears. Her only consolation? Ethan was unaware of any of this, but a knock on the door changed all that.
“Kaycee, honey? What’s going on in there? Are you OK?”
“Uh, yeah,” she said, splashing cold water on her face. “Just uhm, going to the bathroom.”
“Why are you in the guest bathroom?”
“I, uhm... didn’t want to wake you.”
Ethan always understood Kaycee, even when he was determined not to. But after their years together, she couldn't fool him.
“Kaycee, open the door, please.”
She opened the door, her face red and eyes puffy, and fear struck his heart.
“Kaycee...”
“I'm fine," she reassured. "Come with me,” she said, taking his hand and leading him back to bed.
“I’m sorry,” she cried into his shoulder. “I just wanted to do something nice for you.”
“Nice... for what? What are you even doing up this early? You know if you’re sick, you should get me.”
“I wasn’t up because I was sick, well, at least not at first. I wanted... I wanted to make you a nice breakfast, but everything went wrong!”
She relayed the story of the eggs that betrayed her – no wonder they’re called Benedict! – then the burnt potatoes. She attempted to rectify it with delivery, only to receive a tofu scramble. Ethan waited patiently, rubbing her back soothingly until she was done.
“That’s terrible,” he acknowledged with a half smile.
“I know!”
“First, it appears the alarms I set up to keep you out of the kitchen failed miserably, and then... a tofu scramble? No wonder your morning sickness returned after that!”
"Ha-ha-ha," she jeered, poking his chest as her tears turned into laughter. “I know you said you didn’t want to celebrate Father’s Day; you think it's too early, but I wanted to make the day special for you.”
“Well, you’re wrong about something. I did want to celebrate it in my own way. In fact, I already had plans on how to do it.”
“You did?” She marveled.
“Yes. The plans were me, and you, home alone with me spoiling you as much as possible."
“But, it’s Father's Day. Shouldn't I be spoiling you?"
“Not at all, without you, I would have never even imagined being a father, yet look at me now. So I’m going to spoil you rotten today, and you're going to let me."
“Ethan," she sighed.
“Ethan, nothing. If all goes well, you have years of making cards with handprints, buying gifts, and preparing meals with our child – God help them..."
"Hey!" She said with a smack to his shoulder.
"This year is extra special, but you’re doing all the work to get our little one here, so let me spend Father’s Day the way I want to... by showing you the kind of husband I am and the kind of father I intend to be."
Kaycee broke into tears once again.
"Are you OK?"
"No! How dare you say something so sweet to me when you know my hormones are a freaking mess!"
"Come on," he smiled. "Let's get you in the bathtub and I'll make breakfast for you. What do you want?"
"I have to think on it, but not eggs benedict, and definitely not a tofu scramble."
“Well, whatever you decide? I'll make it happen."
A short time later, the couple sat on their balcony overlooking the Charles River. Kayce, in a fresh new bathrobe, with her attentive husband at her side.
"You really don't have to eat this, too," she said, biting into her breakfast.
"Why not?" he asked, trying to swallow his bagel with peanut butter, bananas, greek yogurt, and lox. "This is a delicacy in some... you know what, I can't even lie. This is horrible. The thought of eggs benedict made you sick, but this doesn't?"
"Hey, I don't make the pregnancy rules! If we did, we’d both be otters and then you would be the pregnant one!"
"Kaycee, you're being otterly ridiculous."
"Kaycee, you’re being otterly ridiculous."
"Thank God you're gorgeous and a brilliant doctor," she laughed. "Because you would have never made it as a comedian."
"I love you," he smiled, then leaned over to kiss her cheek.
"I love you, too," she replied. "Now, what do you have planned for the rest of the day."
"Easy. Romcoms. If your emotions can handle them."
"You're watching romcoms with me! Willingly!"
"Mmm-hmm, until we cap the day off with watching the Eras Tour again."
Kaycee let out a soft gasp. "The world has no idea what a big softie you are, Ethan Ramsey."
"Shhh," he whispered. "Let's keep that our little secret."

MLB SIMULACRUMS OF LUCK
Tumblr media
Prompt by @sillysiluriforme, full list here: 🦋
“Um… Ivan? Can I ask you something personal?”
Mylené was not sure what to expect when she started with this question. It certainly shouldn’t be one that would be normal to ask on an ice cream date and yet here she was, the scent of chocolate and marshmallows from one scoop, and cookies and cream from the other striking her nose contrasting what will come next.
“O-of course, Mylené. You can ask me. The worst I can say is that I’m not ready to talk about it yet,” Ivan replied, a little bit concerned.
Mylené sighed, looking at her spoonful. “Thanks. I’m just going to warn you now, it’s… a bit weird.”
Ivan gives her a reassuring smile, “It’s ok. I’m not going to judge you for asking. I promise.”
Mylené smiled a bit before turning back to him. “Has… your body felt… weird?”
Ivan blinked, a little confused. “Like… in the… being fat way or the puberty way-“
“Nonononono not like that-“ Mylené quickly corrects, looking aside. “I’m talking about… ever since you were… metamorphosed.”
Ivan went quiet. He looked at the ice cream again, contemplating what was next to say. As each second passed, he considered whether or not to say what was on his mind. His answer came as he saw Mylené’s face falter
“I- I’m so sorry Ivan, I… know it’s a sore subject for you, we can forget I ever asked that if you want-“
“Mylené it- it’s fine. I promise.” He wrapped an arm around her. “I um… I just… I don't know how to describe it yet.”
“So you do feel it too?” She asked. Ivan nods.
“It’s mostly… in the middle of the night though. That I feel… weird!” “Middle of the night- like- like 1:00!” Mylené completed.
“Yeah, like that- if I have a hard time sleeping or something along the lines.” Ivan recalled. “It’s like I… feel it in my bones.”
Mylené nods. “It… it was really bad last night. So um, I woke up from some random dream I had. I don’t know if the dream had anything to do with it or not, at this point I wouldn’t be surprised, but there I was. But… I couldn’t sit up. I… felt… like I was still dreaming. But I knew I wasn’t, I could read the posters on my wall perfectly fine, I was aware… but I felt like I could… see more than I could before. Like there was something in… the middle of my forehead that allowed me to. Like I could just…. Blink my forehead like I can my eyes. But that’s not the worst part. I… felt like I was melting.”
Ivan stared, “Melting?”
“Yeah. Like… my muscles and skin didn’t want to be solid anymore, I felt my elbow slide off my bones, slip down the bed and drop onto the floor. It was so cold too. I knew my body was still as is because I could visually see that I was whole, but my senses were telling me some other story. Again, I thought I was dreaming, but the delusion didn’t go away for another… two hours. I had to go back to sleep thinking that I was going to slip right off my bones somehow.” Her voice trembled. “I couldn’t talk to my dad about it, he doesn’t like talking about those sorts of things… and I don’t blame him one bit for that…so I thought that if anyone would be willing to listen and understand… it would be you, teddy bear.”
Ivan gently took his arm and brought her into a side hug, allowing Mylené’s head to rest on his shoulder.
“Mylené, I…I’m so sorry…” Ivan sighed. “In a different way I… have felt like that before. Is it okay if I tell you?”
“Of course,” Mylené nods. “Please tell me.”
“Well… I think around the end of September was when this one I still think about happened. I was up later than I uh, should be, I was trying to write out the percussion score for this new song that Rose made up. Headphones on, setting up on the computer, all of that. At one point during the wee hours I felt… itchy. Like I got bitten by some mosquito or something. However when I attempted to mitigate it my skin felt like it was… rough? It didn’t look like it was rough though, I just chalked it up to just some skin irritation from my new shirt. But it was a bit more than that.”
He placed his hand up on the bridge of the nose, between his eyes. “You know this part of the skull, where it divides your eye sockets and it starts to become cartilage to become your nose? Well… suddenly I couldn’t feel it. It… started to feel like my eyeballs were.. Going to roll down such an open socket before landing at the point at the bottom of my nose.”
He took his fingers, and on each side, raised them up to trace around his eye sockets before dropping down to meet again at the bottom of his nose. “Like one big heart shape just sunk into my head. Not to mention… I felt so stiff and cold. Like my skin was going to break instead of stretch or bend. Like I was on the brink of crumbling and if I made too much of a movement, I was going to break into pieces. And I knew that was impossible because I knew what my body looked like! I could still see myself looking like I always do. I was stuck in that seat just… enduring it! Until eventually it… just went away. I saved my progress and went right to sleep afterward. So… um…yeah.”
Mylené kept her head on Ivan’s shoulder. A sigh of relief echoes her mouth - this was exactly what she was talking about. “I’m so sorry that happened to you, teddy bear…” Mylené sighed.
She and him both looked back at their ice cream, which started melting around Ivan’s free hand. Neither of them had to say it aloud to know that feeling was because this was what their scélérats looked like. Sure they never were conscious to see for themselves what they looked like as a giant slime monster and a stone giant respectively but a part of their minds still hold on to that memory nonetheless. Sure, a lot of their classmates have fallen victim to the butterfly at some point or another, but a lot of them have gotten a new costume with new superpowers in order to do Monarch’s bidding. However, unlike the members of their class who had faced it so far, their entire physical bodies had not endured the contortion that Ivan and Mylené’s had.
The two finally looked back at their melting ice cream, and decided to cease their conversation there. Yet, Ivan kept his arm around Mylené, and Mylené kept her head on Ivan’s shoulder. It’s the only thing they can do about it. Stoneheart and Horrificator will continue to haunt each of them, especially with the mastermind still terrorizing Paris.
However, they love each other enough to be there for each other through it all.
