masterlist
a/n: I love writing these so much! I hope you guys enjoy them as much as I do!!
Thanos
Get ready to be crushed
Lays on-top of you
And does not let you get up for anything
âLet me get up for a second I-â
âNo.â
While laying on-top of you he takes the opportunity to kiss your neck or chest
If you do end up getting up he whines until you lay back down
Type of Bf to use your butt or thighs as a pillow đâ
Randomly bites you
Has cute aggression 100%
Very deep sleeper
Moves so much in his sleep so if you guys fall asleep cuddling at least one of you is gonna be upside down when you wake up
Will give you pda anytime anywhere he does not care
Iâm literally Dr. Seuss
In-ho
Not very big on cuddling
He tolerates it for you tho đ
Even tho cuddling isnât really his thing he LOVES when you sit on his lap
Especially when youâre facing him
Also likes when you lay on his chest
Literally just lets you cling to him and do whatever
Acts like he doesnât care for it but we all know the truth
When heâs tired he just completely lets his guard down
That will probably be the only time he initiates cuddling
Other wise youâre kinda on your own ďżź
Se-mi
Loves laying on your chest !!
Gives you neck kisses when sheâs the big spoon đ
Also a biter
Likes to have you on her lap
Touches your tummy while cuddling
you cannot stop her đĄ
Clingiest Gf you can have !!
Takes every opportunity to hug you from behind and just stays like that for as long as possible
When you lay on her chest she likes to play with your hair
Another deep sleeper
Girl will not wake up for anything
If you are in bed with her you better be ready to never leave the bed again once she gets her hands on you
âBabe I need to get upâ
âFive more minutessssâ
Dae-ho
Most cuddly person ever
Big spoon !!
not so secretly likes being small spoon sometimes
Either rests his head on-top of yours or in your neck
If you guys fall asleep like that expect not to be getting up at all
Literally has a death grip on you
Lays his head on your thighs or chest pt.2
Will fall asleep immediately if you start playing with his hair đ
HATES sleeping without you
The lightest sleeper ever
If you softly shake him awake he will either have a dramatic mom reaction or heâll just be confused asf
My babbyyyyyy
Myung-gi
Struggles to sleep if you arenât next to him
Religiously the big spoon
He likes to put his hands up your shirt while cuddling and his excuse is
âMy hands were cold đâ
âDamn right they are đĄâ
Yaaaa we all know his real intentions â
Neck kisses pt.2 !!
Another one that uses your thighs as a pillow
Moves a lot in his sleep as well but stays holding you the whole time somehow
Loves you being on his lap pt.2
The type to rub your thighs while watching a movie or some shtđđđđđĄđđđĄ
I want him so bad
Gives you so much kisses !!
I need someone like him omg đ
Jun-ho
Loves cuddling face to face if that makes sense đ
Likes to hear about your day while just holding you
Listens intently and plays with your hair as you speak
He also enjoys when you lay on his chest
The weight of your body calms him down and he feels better knowing youâre safe in his arms
If heâs feeling extra vulnerable that day heâll lay his head on your chest
Probably gets super exhausted after work sometimes so he just falls asleep the second he gets home
and when you join him in bed he immediately wraps his arms around you
Overall I donât think heâd be to big on cuddling but he also wouldnât mind
Hyun-ju
Sheâs just a big teddy bear
Especially when youâre alone with her
She isnât too big on pda so in public she probably just sticks to holding your hand
But in private youâre getting cuddles, kisses, you name it
There will be a lot of giggling going around
Loves if you braid or play with her hair while cuddling
Lets you try out new hairstyles on her to see which one looks the prettiest đ¤

When the both of you go to bed she HAS to be touching you
No matter if itâs holding hands or being straight up on top of eachother
Poor girl just needs you đ
Mi-na
I feel like she wouldnât really care for being touchy with anyone but if itâs her s/o
Sign her up !!
Definitely small spoon
She wants to be treated like a princess đ
Puts her legs over your lap and just pouts at you till you rub them
If sheâs feeling a little frisky sheâll get you to put your head on her chest and then just cling onto you
Loves giving you kisses !!

League Money
So, like in this AU, every leaguer gets like this little allowance from Batman for stuff they need as superheroes. Now, Billyâs never used the fund, as Marvel doesnât really need food, or water, or anything like that. Heâs never thought to use it for himself because âthatâd be wrongâ. But one day:
Marvel: âFlash, how was your day?â Flash: âIt was good. I got some groceries with the trust fund Spooky gave us.â
Marvel: âWait what? You can do that?â *whispering like this is some dirty secret*
Flash: âUh⌠Yeah? Hal used it last week to get hair gel. Bats never said anything, so Iâm pretty sure itâs fine.â
Marvel: âOh.â *remembers the many winters he nearly starved to death in* âOkay.â
LaterâŚ
*Marvel now back as Billy, is arm deep, rummaging through his pocket dimension*
Billy: *grabs onto something* âThere you are!â *pulls out shiny credit card and looks at it in awe*
This single credit card held his league money.
Billy: *looks over to his little stash of food. Rats had eaten it all recently. Looks back to the card* âThis is a bad idea.â *stands up and starts heading to his door, shoving the card in his pocket* âThis a really bad idea.â
*Billy walks to the grocery store and enters, ignoring the concerned look from the cashier wondering why a little kid came into the store alone*
Billy: *grabs a cart and grabs a bunch of nonperishables, all with a guilty look cause he feels bad about spending the money on himself. Rolls up to the cashier*
Cashier: âUh⌠Hey, little guy.â *little wave* âIs your dad nearby?â *looks around for literally any parental figure*
Billy: âYeah, heâs outside.â *still looks guilty*
Cashier: âOh, okay.â *still looks a little concerned but starts scanning items* âIs your school doing a canned food drive?â *eyes the various cans as they scan them*
Billy: âUh⌠Yes.â *takes out the credit card and hands it to the cashier because heâs too short to reach the scanner without standing on his tip toes*
Cashier: *scans the card for him* âIt declined.â
Billy: âWhat? Can you try again?â *does not want to inconvenience this poor cashier by making them put all the cans away*
Cashier: *Swipes the card again and it once again declines* (Marvel needs to be the one to swipe it, the average Joe, including Billy, canât cause Batman did some freaky stuff and made it so that only the person the card belongs to can make it work. Billy didnât know.) âIt declined again. Why donât you go get your dad or mom? Iâll hold your stuff.â
Other customers in line: *groans of annoyance*
Billy: âIâll try!â *Runs out of store panicking. Runs to an alley and shazams into Marvel*
Marvel: *still panicking, whips out a spell that changes his suit into civvies. Runs back as fast as a normal human can. Enters store and speed walks as calmly as he can back to cashier* âSorry. My- uh son told me the card wasnât working?â
Cashier: *jaw drops when they see Captain Marvel walk through the door in normal clothes*
Other customers in line: *jaws also drop*
Marvel: âUhm⌠My card?â *holds hand out for it*
Cashier: *uses one hand to close jaw back up and with the other hand, gives the card to Marvel* âRight. It declined a couple times.â
Marvel: âReally?â *swipes it and it accepts* (Billy was jumping in joy inside) âWould you look at that? Mustâve been a fluke.â
Cashier: *still a little speechless at Captain Marvel being in front of him in civilian clothes. Also that little kid was the Captainâs kid?* âSorry.â
Marvel: âFor what? I doubt it was your fault.â *walks over to grab the bags of cans* âThanks for helping my kid.â *gives cashier signature sunny smile before walking out of the store, then promptly sprinting home*

Tide
Pairing: Frankie Morales x Female Reader Rating: Explicit. 18+ (Minors DNI) Summary: Frankie Morales is capable of almost anything... except not cumming in his jeans when he thinks about you, the pretty clerk at the grocery store he always buys his giant jugs of laundry detergent at. Warnings: Smut thoughts, Frankie's POV and internal monologue, premature ejaculation, so much cum talk, addiction recovery, laundry detergent, this is so ridiculous but I also tried to make it super sweet. Words: 1,200
A/N: I'd probably classify this as a crack fic... but with heart. This is SOOOOO indulgent and ridiculous. I don't know what @luxurychristmaspudding unlocked in me but this is what's released. I know this is my *4th* story in a week, but I couldn't help myself. Also, shout out to the JM Discord and all of the tenants who join in the luxuriousness of this level of depravity.
Masterlist
đđđ¤Frankieđ¤đđ
It keeps happening to Frankie over and over and over again. Recovery has been a challenge, abstaining from all of his previous vices means heâs no longer numbing his mind⌠and body.Â
Nobody should ever cum during a prescription commercial and yet⌠he does. The swimsuit hugged the womanâs curves a little too close, plus she had the same color hair as you. His mind couldnât help floating to thinking about you in a swimsuit.
Aye dios mio, get a hold of yourself man.
Heâs too embarrassed to bring it up to his doctor. The notion of ever mentioning it to the Delta Force boys terrifies him, although he knows deep down theyâd lend a sympathetic ear. Theyâve killed, fought wars, and climbed out of the lowest points of their lives together⌠but the thought of letting his secret out? Awful. He shudders at the thought of telling his fellow Narcotics Anonymous attendees: âHi, my name is Frankie, Iâm an addict and I canât stop cumming in my pants.â
He tries to think of the worst things, mental images that should scar even the scariest of humans, thoughts about death, rotting produce, weird looking insects, and yet, it still happens.
___
âHi, howâd you find everything today?â
He blinks towards your tag though heâs already memorized your name, it repeats through his mind whenever he climaxes⌠he wonders to himself how your sweet voice would sound repeating his name.Â
Uh oh, quick, think of a bee sting, everyoneâs going to die, burnt pizza.Â
He shakes his head, the thoughts of you wrapped around him flying out of his head with each subtle knock.Â
âSir, are you okay?â
Fuuuuuuck, you really had to call me sir, didnât you?
âY-yeah, sorry, long day. My nameâs Frankie by the way.â
Focus, donât look at how her hand wraps around the shampoo bottle, soldier.Â
âHi Frankie, nice to finally have a name to the face.â
Of course you say his name in the sweetest way. He presses his fingers into the flesh of his palm as hard as he can withstand, he prays you donât see the way his nostrils flare.
Be strong.
Heâs been captivated ever since he first saw you working in the mom and pop market across the street from his apartment. Youâre always friendly and smiling, he swears he feels your eyes on him every time he leaves yet heâs too scared to look back and confirm for himself. He wishes he knew how to small talk and somehow step over the threshold of this case of shyness he has with you.Â
Why bother? Iâll just end up disappointing you, never leaving you fulfilled.Â
Heâs so ashamed.Â
âThatâs a big bottle of detergent, you must do a lot of laundry. You have kids?âÂ
âI do⌠a four year old, but she lives with her mom,â he answers, lifting the giant jug into his cart, his cock twitches when he feels your eyes on his biceps.Â
Stay cool, you can do this, youâve literally overcome worse⌠and cummed over less.
He wonders if you notice just how much laundry soap he buys⌠heâs confident that you have no clue you're the only reason why his washing machine is constantly working overtime.Â
âOh, I love that age,â you mindlessly muse scanning a cereal box. âIs she as cute as her dad?â
His spine turns to jelly⌠he feels the phantom getting closer.Â
Trash compactors, mom and dadâs divorce, elephant seals.
âEveryone says she has my eyes.â
âThen she must be,â you wink.
Not a wink, not a wink, not a goddamn wiiiiink.Â
He quickly pulls his head down, sticking his card in the chip reader, resisting the urge to think of his now aching cock pushing into you.Â
STOP. STOP. STOP THINKING FRANKIE.
Focusing on the pin pad breaks his spiral. Relief spreads through his tense body knowing this run in will be over soon, he can go home in peace, his pants surviving this moment.
Your fingers brush against his hand when you hand him the receipt, his favorite part of buying groceries. Heâll stand in your checkout lane no matter the size of the line for the split second of skin to skin contact. Itâs all he can afford to let himself have, any more would surely stain his jeans.Â
___
âHey Frankie!âÂ
He turns at your voice, his breath hitching when you walk over to him while removing your name tag.
âWant to go next door and grab a drink?â
âIâd love to⌠but I, uh,â he lifts his hat nervously tussling his hair, âIâm in recovery.âÂ
âOh,â your voice and face falter, âIâm sorry, umââ
Donât let this moment pass, you can do it.
âI know a really good ice cream place, a few blocks down, I can meet you there?âÂ
Ice cream means licking. Frankie, you're an idiot.
âOh, um, that sounds amazing but I donât drive.â
âI can take you⌠if youâd like.âÂ
âYeah?â your smile grows wider. âThat sounds amazing.â
âI just need to drop these off, and then Iâll meet you outside in twenty?â
âAwesome!â You squeeze his hand wrapped around the cart handle. âIâll see you soon.âÂ
Your touch scorches his skin, he blinks watching your ass sway while walking through the doors to the backroom.Â
1-2-3, a gush of hot liquid releases against his jeans, his knuckles turn white as they clutch the cart handle.
Jesus Christ.
Frankie picks up his bags, holding them close to his crotch and leaves the grocery store. He better hurry. Thank god he just bought more detergent.Â
___
In hindsight, heâs thankful for his little grocery store indiscretion. Heâs carefree and relaxed as he falls even harder for you over chocolate sundaes. You ask for extra rainbow sprinkles and laugh at all of his jokes.Â
This must be what itâs like to live normally.
___
âThatâs me,â you point to a small bungalow unbuckling your seatbelt. âThanks for the ice cream Frankie."
âThis was really fun,â he turns towards you, shocked at how close youâre leaning towards him.Â
Kiss her. No, wait, donât kiss her. Yeah, definitely donât kiss her.Â
âIt was,â you lick your lips and lean even closer.Â
He can smell you now, you smell divine. Like ice cream and floral perfume.Â
You place a soft kiss against his lips and pull away.
Frankieâs body tenses, a pathetic whimper escapes his mouth, he spurts against the cotton of his briefs. Doe eyes rounded with embarrassment stare at you.
âSorry,â whispers out of his downturned lips.Â
âOh,â your face fails at hiding a smile, âFrankie, itâs okay. Really.â
His head knocks against the headrest, face frozen in a grimace, his eyes squeezed shut.Â
âFrankie,â your hand clasps his chin forcing him to look at you. âHonestly, itâs okay. Itâs actually⌠kinda hot.â
Right then and there he knows heâll never shop at another grocery store again.Â

.á chapter one: can you see me using everything to hold back?
wc: 1k
cw: talk about death of parents (literally one sentence)
the first time we met, the first thing I noticed about vi was her ridiculous haircut and how she had the most beautiful blue eyes i had ever seen (which wasnât saying much, considering I was only 10). i instantly wanted to be her friend. but my mom had told me that she and powder were still adjusting and their situation was a little delicate since they had just lost their parents. so, i held myself back as much as I could.
three weeks later, when the adoption papers were signed by vander and they officially became his daughters, i was given the mission of helping the girls feel at home. they were very shy at first, but ekko and i helped them, and in no time, vanderâs house had become their home. from then on, vi and I became the best of friends. i covered for her when she got into fights at school, we studied together, played together, we were basically inseparable.
i remember one afternoon not long after the adoption. vi was sitting on the roof, kicking her legs idly and staring at the stars. she looked lost in thought. I hesitated for a moment, not sure if i should bother her, but eventually, i walked over and sat beside her.
âwhatâre you doing out here all by yourself?â i asked, trying to sound casual.
âjust thinking,â she said, her voice quiet. she didnât look at me, but her hands fidgeted with the hem of her shirt. âitâs weird, you know? having a new home.â
i didnât know what to say to that, so i just nodded. âyeah, I guess it would be.â
she finally looked at me, her gaze piercing but soft âdo you think itâll get easier?â
i smiled, trying to reassure her even though I wasnât sure myself. âyeah, i think so. youâve got vander now. and powder. and⌠me.â
she smiled for the first time that day. âyouâre not too bad, I guess.â
i laughed. ânot too bad? wow, thanks for the compliment.â
ââââââââââââââââââââââ
life couldnât have been betterâuntil we got to high school and vi had a growth spurt and became insufferable. not only did she get taller and figure out how to manage her hair, but she also developed a sense of style and made it her mission to break every heart in zaun. Suddenly, every hallway we walked down was filled with girls trying to catch her attention, and she seemed to enjoy it.
one day, as we walked home together, i couldnât help but tease her about it.
âyou know, youâve got a fan club now,â i said, smirking.
vi raised an eyebrow. âa fan club? what are you talking about?â
i gestured back towards the school. âthose girls who basically tripped over themselves trying to say hi to you. pretty sure one of them nearly fainted when you smiled at her.â
she laughed, a confident sound that only made her more infuriating. âcan i help it if people think iâm charming?â
i rolled my eyes. âcharming? not so sure. annoying? definitely.â
she bumped her shoulder against mine, her grin widening. âadmit it, youâd miss me if i wasnât around.â
i looked away, trying to hide the flush on my cheeks. âyeah, right. youâre just my backup for when ekkoâs busy.â
âliar,â she said, laughing again.
i shouldnât have cared about any of that, but my brain decided it would be a fantastic idea to fall in love with her. so, every time she had a girl aroundâwhether it was someone new she was flirting with or a girlfriend she brought homeâi had to pretend life was great and that it didnât affect me at all.
it got harder as time went on. every stolen glance at her became more unbearable, every casual touch felt like torture, and every time i saw her with someone else, it felt like a reminder that sheâd never look at me the way I wanted her to. but i couldnât show it, couldnât let her or anyone else know how I felt. i was scared our friendship would suffer the consequences of my feelings, so i buried it deep, pretending that everything was fine.
which it was, it actually became second nature by the time we moved in together for college.
our apartment was small but comfortable, and vi's personality seemed to fill every corner. she had insisted on hanging a crooked poster of a rock band that jinx had gifted herâa band she lovedâin the living room, despite all my protests.
âitâs not crooked,â she argued, stepping back and tilting her head. âitâs artistic.â
âitâs crooked,â i said, crossing my arms. âfix it or iâm taking it out.â
vi grinned at me. âif i fix it, whereâs the fun in watching you suffer?â
âyouâre impossible.â
âyou love me,â she said casually, turning to grab her drink from the counter. my heart stuttered, and I quickly looked away before she could see my face.
âunfortunatelyâ i said, but it came out without the bite intended.
ââââââââââââââââââââââ
late one night, we were sitting on the balcony, watching the city lights. vi leaned back in her chair, her legs propped up on the railing, as she stared up at the sky.
âdo you ever think about whatâs next?â she asked suddenly, breaking the comfortable silence.
âwhat do you mean?â i asked, sipping my coffee.
âlike⌠after college. what weâre gonna do. where weâll end up.â she looked at me then, her expression softer than usual. âdo you think weâll still be close?â
the question caught me off guard, and I had to force myself to answer without hesitating. âof course. Why wouldnât we be?â
she shrugged, her gaze drifting back to the stars. âi donât know. life happens. people drift apart.â
ânot us,â i said firmly, surprising even myself. âweâve been through too much. youâre stuck with me, violet.â
she smiled, her eyes catching the faint glow of the streetlights. âgood. i like having you around.â
my chest tightened, and I looked away before she could see the way her words affected me. âsomeoneâs gotta keep you out of trouble.â
âhey, Iâm a model citizen,â she teased, laughing. âyouâre the bad influence here.â
i laughed too, even though the ache in my heart lingered. she had no idea the effect she had on me.
ââââââââââââââââââââââ

through your eyes + au 3
authors note: well. this got freaky. some smut ahead, folks. this really is starting to feel like a completely different story, low key.
part one // part two // au solana instagram
warnings: smut
taglist: @sayyestoheav3nn @fearlesschimera @cyberdejos2 @annfg8 @trentybenty @sabrina-carpenter-stan-account @zoeyybellex3
word count: 4.3k
"I need to talk to you."
Solana should have been talked to someone about this.
But, she's felt torn.
Torn on just who she can talk to about it.
And lack of options hasn't been the issue.
If anything, there's a copious amount of resources and trusted confidants she could go to. Courtesy of her large family, host of cousins, and other good friends.
It's actually easier to start with who would absolutely be the worst person to go to.
And her mom, interestingly enough, is that person. Ironic given how close she is to her madre. One of her best friends, in many ways.
But, not for this. Because Nina will go to Xavier, Solana's dad, and somehow Wes, Solana's brother, will get involved, and it'll just be a whole mess.
Beyond that, there's her cousins. Jade and Anriel will scold the living shit out of her and probably confide in their mom, Solana's aunt Sharmell, out of concern. Aunt Sharmell will go to her husband, Booker, who won't hesitate to literally fly out to Miami just to tell his brother, Xavier, Solana's dad. Thus, the whole damn family knowing.
Then there's her cousin, Roxanne. Roxanne would be great if not for her inability to hold water. And Solana definitely doesn't need her mom's side of the family knowing. They'll kidnap her and force her to live in Mexico for the rest of her life, believing she's gone mad.
Might not be too far off though.
Rhea will just kick her ass for being so 'fawkin stoopid'. Jaida will encourage it, because Jaida encourages all things questionable. But Kayden....Kayden could be the one.
She's also bound to not respond well, but still, someone Solana knows will ultimately keep this between the two of them.
Kayden Carter looks over at Solana with intrigue. With over 15 years of friendship, she knows when her roommate and best friend is truly in a dilemma, that nervous, panicked voice she typically uses present already. This is definitely one of those times.
"Okay." Kayden motions for Solana to sit down on the other end of the sofa, waiting until she does so to ask, "what's going on?"
Solana takes a deep breath, both hating and needing to share this. "You know the event I attended with my family this weekend?" Kayden nods. "IâI met someone there."
At that, Kayden lifts a pierced brow. "Oh?"
Solana looks away, explaining, "I was trying to get away from Ethan and ran into this man by accident, and he ended up helping me out. Pretending to be my date or whatever. It got Ethan to leave me alone, so that was good."
"Forget about Page's annoying ass, what about the man? Is he attractive?"
Solana scoffs. "Very." She's not quite sure how to describe just how fine Roman Reigns is. "Butâ"
Kayden's expression sours. "He's an asshole, isn't he?"
"Notorious." Though Solana does her best to stay tucked away in her little corner of the world within that's away from the mafia life, she's not stupid nor entirely disconnected. It's common knowledge that Roman is a dick.
And yet....
"But, he was nice to me. He's been nice to me." Kayden's expression shifts into confusion, Solana clarifying, "heâhe came to my job this morning."
"Holy shit, he's serious about this." Kayden scoffs and smiles, clearly intrigued by the mystery of it all. "Wait, who is this guy, Sola?"
And now, here comes the part that Solana has been dreading since decided she would confide in Kayden. "It's....it's Roman."
Kayden blinks, not catching on. "Roman who?" And it's just one 'you know' look from Solana that has her eyes widening. "No." Solana closes her eyes. "Please tell me you're kidding." More silence provides the answer she's certain her roommate didn't and doesn't want to hear. "Roman fuckin' Reigns? Solana, have you lost your mind? Do you know who he is?"
Solana leans back into the sofa, murmuring, "of course."
"No, you must not, because this man is the devil himself. He's a monster, Solana. If you heard half the things he's done, you'd be running the opposite way. You'd be on the other side of the goddamn world to get away from him." Kayden continues to freak out, lecturing and chiding Solana for what she clearly feels is a bad call. "I just-I don't understand. Solana, you've always been so against our world. You've essentially lived in seclusion just because you don't want to be a part of it, and now you're entertaining the literal embodiment of said world?"
Solana runs her hands over her face. "It's notâit's not like that."
"Then tell me what it's like, because maybe I'm just confused, but I'm pretty sure you're telling me that you're talking to Roman Reigns?"
That's exactly what she is, but Solana is lost on just how to express that despite everything that's been said about this man, in the two interactions she's had with him, he's been nothing but kind. In his own way, of course.
"He....he hasn't been that way with me," she finds herself defending while also recognizing that it truly is a weak defense. "He's been....nice. He helped me out with Ethan. He came to see me at my job just to ask me out--"
"Wait, he already asked you out?" Kayden looks like she's about to spazz out even more. She shakes her head, taking a second to calm down. "Solana, you're my best friend, and I love you, but he's probably just trying to fuck you. You're gorgeous with a great body, and he obviously sees how innocent you are. It's just a chase."
It makes sense, and Roman more or less confirmed as such with his comment about wanting her with no clothes on. That should be enough evidence for her to find a way to ward off his advances.
But.....
There's this part of her that's absolutely intrigued by him, as he so smugly pointed out. A part of her that wouldn't mind to get to know him more. Even if it makes no damn sense to her.
"I can take care of myself." It doesn't come out as confident and assured as she would like it to be, nor is she entirely certain of her assertion herself, but it's expressed regardless. "IâI can handle this."
Kayden looks just as unsure as Solana feels. "Your family doesn't know, do they?"
"No." Her eyes widen a bit. "No one does, except you now. So please, please don't say anything to anyone." Solana needs to at least figure out just what's going on before she has to face the inevitable backlash from her family and others.
Kayden shakes her head. "You know I got you, girl. Even though I do think you're fuckin' crazy, you've always supported me in my fucked up relationships, so I'll do the same with you." Kayden suddenly gives her that teasing expression, poking her arm. "Besides, it's not like he's ugly, am I right?"
So right.
"I get so nervous around him," Solana whines, laying her head back against the sofa. "He's just so....he comes on so strong."
Kayden smirks, leaning over and playfully nudging. "He wants him some Sola, girl." She laughs as Solana covers her blushing face. "Who could blame him? You're gorgeous, babe."
It's such weird experience. Solana is still trying to heal and learn to love herself again after calling off her engagement, so a man like Roman Reigns coming into her life out of nowhere and being so intent on just....her....it's a lot to digest. Because taking away all of the things about him that make him dangerous and avoidant worthy, he's still, hands down, the most handsome man she's ever seen.
"So where are ya'll going?"
Solana bites down on her bottom lip. "He invited me to WarGames. Said he'll send a car for me."
There's obvious surprise on the face of her best friend. "First date is watching him beat the shit out of other men?" Kayden says aloud, nodding and shrugging. "It tracks." Solana rolls her eyes. "Well, what are you gonna wear?"
She shrugs, truly unsure when she remembers what he said. "Something....something red." Kayden is curious, as Solana shares a version of what Roman said. "He....he asked me to wear red."
Told. He told her to wear red, but Kayden doesn't need to know that part.
Smirking, Kayden nods, impressed almost. "Damn. He already wants you wearing Bloodline colors? First lady type shit." Solana grabs a pillow and throws it Kayden's way, her friend laughing and then gasping. "Holy shit, you have to wear that red dress I got you last year for your birthday!"
The mention of that little piece Solana swore would never see beyond the back of her closet has her eyes widening. "Kayden, no, I can't. That's way too revealing."
"That's the point, duh." Kayden tosses the pillow back and stands up off the sofa, pulling Solana up with her. She then looks over at Dulce who's been sleeping peacefully as her mama stumbles into one of the most questionable decision of her life. "Come on, Dulce. We gotta get mama ready to get dicked down."
"Kayden!"
--------
Solana is a nervous wreck.
She hasn't been this anxiety ridden since taking her NCLEX-RN, and that was a damn near traumatic experience.
This is literally just a date.
Kind of.
Cause she's never actually been on a date before where the man will be preoccupied the whole night.
But, she's also never been on a date with someone like Roman before either. It's just all around a brand new experience that has her so in her head. She's in it during the car ride and especially when she arrives at the Warehouse and is escorted to Roman's locker room.
She nearly has a heart attack when the door is opened and she expects to see him waiting, but it's postponed, God looking out for her, when she sees he's absent.
The security leave her alone without any guidance or clue as to just what she's supposed to do, so Solana takes that time to text Kayden and let her know she's arrived and that she's safe.
For now.
Not wanting to focus too much on the unknown of it all, she takes in his locker room which is much nicer than what's probably necessary. Craft table. Weights section. Sofa. Flat screen TV. A trainers table. The works, essentially.
It makes sense when she thinks about it.
Roman seems like a man who only accepts the finer things in life, if not the finest.
But, it's the section on the craft table with a bottle of wine that keeps snatching her attention.
Drinking is probably the last thing she needs to be doing, but that's exactly what she does.
She quickly grabs the bottle and and a wine glass, filling it up halfway before downing almost all of it. It's the perfect combination of sweet and bitter and hopefully helpful in taking some of this edge off.
"You sure don't disappoint, do you?"
It's a pure stroke of luck that she doesn't drop the glass in her hand at the rumble of his deep voice behind her. But, it's truly a miracle that both the glass and herself don't fall to the ground when she turns around to look at him.
Mio dios.
Roman is standing by the door, his hair down and clearly wet, water droplets sliding down his bare chest, Solana unable to take her eyes off his bulging muscles and the intricate tribal tattoos that somehow add to the magnanimity and beauty of this man. He's wearing black cargo pants tucked into black boots, with the sacred, red ula fala resting around his majestic neck.
Roman Reigns in a suit is one thing.
But Roman Reigns shirtless is something entirely different.
She's almost certain the ground underneath her shakes a bit, also deeply impacted by the god among mere mortal men.
If not for Roman initiating something beyond her embarrassing gawking. she would continue to stare. For a long time. A very long time.
He walks toward her, every step bringing her closer and closer to melting into the ground. This man is a giant. In every sense of the word.
But, it's when he takes his finger under her chin, lifting her head a little and has the audacity to say, "you can do more than just look, if you want" that Solana just about spontaneous combusts on the spot.
He's maybe said a total of 8 to 10 sentences to her in the entire time they've 'known' each other, yet even in the midst of that brevity, he still gives her more of a visceral, bodily reaction than her ex ever did.
"Iâ" Words are a thing of the past, something she was once capable of but not anymore. The sight of God himself has a tendency to rob anyone of the right to verbalization.
Roman chuckles, his other hand moving to her hip. "You listened."
Solana is certain it's her that's trembling and not the room around her. It takes her a minute to process he's referring to her dress. "Youâyou said wear red, didn't you?."
"I did." He acknowledges, once again giving her a one over as he bites on his bottom lip. "Good girl."
Oh, fuck.
Solana has to get the hell out of here. The room is freaking in shambles at this point.
Or, maybe that's just her.
She's a stuttering mess trying to communicate with this man. "Iâyouâprobably have to get râready."
Roman smiles, and her entire world flutters. "Do I not look ready to you?"
Hardly. This man probably doesn't even know what it's like to be unready. Never experienced that. That's a mortal thing.
"NoâI just.....Sâsorry."
Similar to their last two interactions, Roman brings his hand to her back and tugs her into him. Solana, once again, places one hand on his chest, not even thinking about the fact that the water from his hair continues to dampen his body.
Until water hits her palm.
Solana is on fire. In all areas. She stammers out, feeling stupid as all the outdoors for stating the obvious. "You're wet...."
His gaze flicks to the space between her legs. "I'd bet you are too."
What the hell?
How is he so.....raw?
She absolutely refuses to move an inch, refuses to cause any kind of movement with her legs that could alert her to the fact that he's probably not wrong.
Not wrong at all.
If only Roman was on the same page.
"You are, aren't you?" His eyes narrow slightly, hand gradually starting to move down from the her back to the sizable swell of her ass. "I bet that pussy dripping for me already."
Solana's eyes shut, her nails clawing against his chest. "Râroman." Her breathing is labored, heart beating a mile per fucking minute, and that only intensifies when he squeezes her ass. Her natural reaction being to arch into him, her breast pressing against his solid body. "Oh my God....."
"God can't do for you what I can, sweetheart."
Blasphemy. Filth. Pure disrespect, and yet her head drops against his chest as he slides his hand to the front of her, wiggling it between her thighs.
Solana means to stop him, means to push him away, but her body seems to have a mind of its own, because she finds herself widening her stance, giving him all the access he needs.
The go ahead.
And he takes full advantage of that, Solana gasping loudly when he moves to cup her through her underwear. Her soaked underwear. "Dripping." He taunts, and it's true. Legs no longer mushed together, she absolutely feels the wetness dripping down, soaking her panties. "I'm taking you out to dinner after the match, but I think we should just skip to dessert right now."
Eyes widening, she gasps again when Roman removes his hand and picks her up, her thighs naturally wrapping around his waist. He carries her over to the trainers table, plopping her down on the edge.
"Lay back."
Her stomach is all kinds of twists and turns. She's not stupid. Far from it. There's only one place this is headed. "Iâwhat?"
Roman, however, looks bored, stating so plainly. "I don't make it a habit to repeat myself, Solana. Even with a pretty thing like you, so do me a favor and just lay back."
If someone told her this is how the night would kick off, she'd call them crazy as all the outdoors. There's no way in hell this man is about to do what she thinks he is.
Is he?
Voicing her thoughts, she struggles with just how to word what is an otherwise simple thing to ask. "Are you...."
His gaze is piercing. "Can I?"
What a fucking question.
Once
Once has she had someone go down on her, and it wasn't even her ex-fiance. It was a guy she dated in college for a few months. To say it was......disappointing would be an understatement.
She didn't even finish.
Back to the borderline crisis at hand, she finds herself oversharing. "My ex. He didn'tâhe wouldn't....."
"Well, he's a fucking idiot." Roman's cruel but accurate remark is accompanied by his big hand moving up the sides of her dress until its scrunched by her stomach. "Eating pussy is a delicacy."
Her eyes shut again. He's so nasty.
So why is it only making her wetter?
Roman's fingers lightly tugging the waistband of her underwear reminds her of the proposed question.
This is a bad idea. A very bad idea. She doesn't sleep around. Doesn't let random men go down on her, and yet, the minute Roman licks his lips, the decision is almost made for her.
"Yâyes."
That alluring, small smile is back as he moves his hand to her stomach, pushing down just enough to get her in position. "Lay down, and let me show you what it's like to be with a real man."
Sweet baby Jesus.
Solana is on the verge of a nervous breakdown, back flat against the cool table when he goes to pull down her panties, leaving her open and exposed.
She hears Roman make a sound. "Mmm. Pussy just as pretty as I imagined."
Her hands clench at her side. He's thought about this? About her? About herâ
"Ahhh." Her back is almost entirely off the table the minute his thick tongue gives one full, sensation stirring lick up her cunt. "Roman...." she moans, hands planted on the table, head thrown back as his cool breath blows against her pussy.
Seconds later, his tongue is back on her, fingers spreading her lips while his tongue teases a languid circle around her clit. "Oh my....."
The sound of his deep chuckle travels from his space between her legs. "I'm gonna make a fucking mess out of you."
And before she can process that, he tugs her by her thighs, diving face first into her cunt. Solana is a mewling, writhing mess as he sucks on her pussy like its the fuel and energy he needs for the fight to come. Laps at her with a hunger and desire that nearly matches her own, because whatever her ex did to her that one time is nothing compared to what he's doing to her right now.
"Shit...." Her body is hot, her nipples hardening by the second, and Solana can't help the way her thighs squeeze against his head, her lower half coiling and twisting from pleasure she's never experienced.
"You like that, don't you?" He hums, voice haughty and knowing. "Like me eating this pretty pussy, don't you, sweetheart?"
Her answer is an obvious one, breathed out over and through heavy pants. "Shit, yes." He sucks on her clit, the slurping sound practically filling the room and egging on her moans.
He pulls away, the absence something that's so much more noticable and painful than it should be. Only for her to arch again when his finger plays around with her nectar that feels like it's spread all over her lower half at this point. "Look how wet you are. I can tell she been neglected." Roman swirls his finger in circles around her clit, thumb applying just the lightest pressure. "Can tell she been needing me."
Solana can't and won't disagree. Not that she could anyway. Logic is very much a thing of the past. The only thing on her mind is ecstasy, and he's giving her more of that than she's ever had in all sexual interactions with all of her ex's put together.
"Goddamn, you taste good." He goes back to licking and sucking on her again, groaning almost. "Would stay down here all night if I could."
Solana nearly comes right then and there.
She wouldn't be opposed.
At all.
He stays with his head between her legs for what feels like inhumanly possible, long enough for that feeling she's only ever been able to give herself starting to rise. Toes curling and stomach twisting, she manages to whine out, "Roman, IâI'm gonnaâ"
He kisses her clit, coaxing her, guiding her, encouraging her. "I know, baby." She can practically visualize the smirk on his face. "Now be a good girl and come in daddy's mouth."
It's disgusting how that one filthy command manages to evoke her orgasm from her, Solana nearly sitting all the way up as her release shoots through her entire body. Roman continuing to suck on her and lap up every bit of it until there's not a fucking drop left.
Solana's practically lifeless body collapses against the table. Everything below her belly button is numb. Eyes shut, pulse probably in the danger range, she has no ability to do anything other than lay there and recover.
She's never come that hard, that much, that long.
Who is this man?
Solana whimpers a bit when she feels something against her, wiping her. A towel most likely. Strong but surprisingly gentle hands help her body to lift up only for her to fall against a solid chest, her forehead against Roman's shoulder.
She clutches onto him as he kisses her temple. "That's my girl." His girl. His anything. She's whatever he says and more. That's how fucked out he has her. "I'll see you after the match, okay?"
Sure. Fine. Whatever. Her ability to agree to anything was sucked out of her by that dangerous tongue of his, so the most she can do is nod against him.
Roman chuckles and gradually pulls away, Solana gripping on the edge of the table, eyes opening just enough to see that strong, muscular back of his as he walks out the door, closing it behind him.
She isn't sure how long she sits there, dress pulled up, towel covering her bottom half. She just knows that even after sitting for what should be a long enough time, her legs are still wobbly. Even as she moves around the room to look for her underwear only to see they're nowhere to be found, leaving her with one conclusion.
Roman took them with him.
The thought shouldn't make her pussy flutter. It really shouldn't and yet, here she is.
God, what did he do to her?
Swallowing, she does her best to maintain her pride and walks out, guided by the same guard who escorted her to Roman in the first place. He takes her up to what must be VIP seating. It's the perfect view of the celled ring and cages on the side intended for the participants.
Sitting there alone and with nothing else to occupy her mind, Solana's mind starts racing. That shouldn't have happened. She should have stopped him. Should have said no.
Even if she did want it just as much as he seemingly did. Nevertheless, that shouldn't matter. He's him. She's her. They're very different people. She's supposed to have morals and standards. Women who have that don't let men who are practically strangers go down on them.
But, that's exactly what she did, and she feels terrible about it.
"You must be my brother's flavor of the night."
Solana is already nervous as all the outdoors, yet somehow the interruption of her overthinking only serves to exacerbate that anxiety.
But, when she looks over and sees the source, Solana is unsure which is worse: what's said or who said it.
Rosalia Reigns isn't as tall or built as her twin brother. Not at all. A given considering their different sexes, but she's every bit as intimidating as him, and they do share some similar features. Same set of pretty brown eyes. Those full, pink lips and that overall powerful aura.
You know just by looking at her that she's an important person.
And she is. She comes only second to her brother.
Roman
Solana swallows and adjusts her dress as Rosalia gives her a oneover, not even trying to hide her distaste. "Hâhi. I'mâ"
"I don't care." Rosalia interrupts, a level of venom in her voice. "You'll be an afterthought come tomorrow morning when you join the rest of his whores on the island of forgettables."
Sting.
Solana shouldn't be surprised nor hurt by such cruel words. Rosalia, much like her brother, has never been known for kindness. Regardless, that knowledge doesn't stop the tears from pooling in her eyes.
Cause the words hit way too close to home given what just happened.
Something noticed by the other woman. An equally cruel smile growing on her face. "Aww, did I hurt your feelings?" Her smile deepens as she scoffs, sitting down in her chair. "Yeah, Ro definitely dropped the ball with you. You're dumber and more naive than the other stupid bitches my brother loves to entertain."
A stupid bitch. Any other time, Solana would disagree. She may not verbalize as such, but she would inwardly reject such a thing. But, she can't. She can't because it's true.
She gave Roman exactly what he wanted. Fell into his trap. Another of many nameless, faceless, forgettable conquests.
She's no different or better than any of the other women Roman messes around with.
She's now one of them.
And she feels disgusted with herself.
Not wanting Rosalia to see her cry, or anyone else, Solana mumbles a quiet 'excuse me' and rushes past the smirking woman. She needs to get out of here. Needs to go home.
Needs to never see or speak to Roman Reigns ever again.
This was a mistake. All of it.
And it can never happen again.

Lake Secrets - Jude Bellingham
Chapter 2: You Can Trust Me
Summary: Grace Alexander Arnold, an architecture student, looks forward to a quiet summer at her brother Trent's lake villa. Her plans change when Trent's best friend, Jude Bellingham, arrives with his family. As Grace and Jude spend more time together, a secret romance begins to grow. Amidst the peaceful lake and family gatherings, will their hidden feelings last, or will they fade away with the summer? Word Count: 3.3k
Warnings: fluff, emotional moment, anxiety
Note: The story will develop more in this chapter, they will share intimate moments
âCome on, Jude, that was way too far!â Trent complained as he swam toward the ball, which had splashed down several yards away. The sun was high in the sky, casting a golden glow over the lake.
âSorry, my bad!â I called back, laughing. Jobe splashed water at me playfully, shaking his head.
âYou always go overboard, bro,â Jobe said with a grin. âLiterally.â
Everyone else was sitting near the shore, either deep in conversation or doing their own thing. Diane and my mom were chatting under a large umbrella, while Trentâs dad was stretched out on a lounge chair, soaking up the sun.
Grace was sitting on a towel, a book in her hands. Every so often, she would look up, watching us play. Her gaze lingered, and it was clear she was admiring the sight of us having fun in the water. She looked like she wanted to join in but was holding back.
She was wearing a white short dress with straps that stood on her forearms, revealing her bare shoulders. She always made sure to pull the strap up on her left shoulder as if to cover something. We would sometimes make eye contact and smile. Anytime I said something funny, I felt the need to look for her approval, which I got every time.
"Hey, Grace. Why don't you join us?" Jobe, my brother, called out. Her smile slowly turned into a worried expression, and she sat up from laying on her stomach.
"I'm good, Jobe. I don't feel like swimming today!"
"She's not into this, mate," Trent quickly spoke for her. I couldn't help but wonder if there might be something more to this, but I decided to let it go.
I also wanted to take a break. We'd been in the water for almost an hour, and I was hungry. Diane and Grace had prepared some delicious snacks that morning in the kitchen: cookies, mini sandwiches, and a variety of other treats. I had watched Grace make them while I ate a late breakfast of cereal at the dining table next to the kitchen. She looked effortlessly pretty while cooking, even in casual clothes and with her hair in a simple braid. Her face was slightly puffy from sleep, her skin clear and fresh. I couldn't help but think how lovely it would be to wake up and see her first thing in the morning. She seemed like the kind of girl who would understand you, truly get your inner self, and make life easier by being the best partner. She didnât come across as complicated to deal with, yet she still held an air of mystery.
"Alright, how about we take a break to eat?" Trent said, as if reading my thoughts.
We all nodded and got out of the water. Diane handed each of us a towel and put the food basket in front of us where we sat. I munched on the mini sandwiches Grace had prepared, trying to catch a glimpse of her without making it obvious.
"Sweetie, do you want something too?" my mom asked Grace, making her look up from her book. She nodded and placed the book aside, moving to sit between me and Trent.
She grabbed a sandwich and started eating. Jobe was making everyone laugh, and her attempts to laugh without spitting out her food were very cute. Eventually, everyone gathered around to eat until there was no food left.
As dusk approached, our parents decided to call it a day, leaving only me, Jobe, Trent, and Grace by the lake. They gathered everything and took the short walk back to the villa, leaving us with some towels and our clothes. "How about we take another swim before leaving?" Jobe asked, winking at me. I couldnât quite understand what he was hinting at.
"Sure, bro. Let's do it!" Trent agreed, and we all stood up, except for Grace. She remained seated, avoiding our looks. "Wanna make a run for it?" Trent looked at me, and I laughed and nodded in response. Jobe held back as we made a run for it, but then I heard a scream from behind me, causing Trent and me to halt and spin around. Grace was screaming, and Jobe was carrying her towards the water, trying to make a joke of it.
"Please, Jobe! Put me down! I don't want to go into the water!" Grace continued to scream, kicking as Jobe neared the water's edge. There was a raw edge of panic in her voice, verging on tears.
"No, Jobe, stop!" Trent yelled, sprinting towards them, clearly alarmed.
Jobe sensed the seriousness of the situation and stopped, slowly setting Grace down on her feet. She clutched her chest, blinking rapidly, trying to compose herself and hold back tears.
"I'm sorry, Grace. I didn't mean to scare you," Jobe said, regret plain in his voice.
I approached cautiously, standing behind Trent, who was comforting her with soothing touches on her shoulders. Grace looked distant, trying to regain her composure.
"Hey, Grace. Are you okay?" I asked softly, my concern evident. I wanted nothing more than to hold her close and calm her racing heart.
"Yeah, I'm fine!" Grace quickly replied, her gaze darting between all of us, overwhelmed by the rush of questions. "It's okay! I just panicked because... It was sudden."
Trent wrapped an arm around her shoulders and kissed her temple. "Hey, how about we call it a day, too?" We all nodded and gathered our towels. I kept my concerned gaze on Grace, which she seemed to notice. She flashed a faint smile at me and placed a reassuring hand on my shoulder, letting me know she was alright. I gave her one more questioning look.
"I'm okay!"
"Alright, good," I whispered back to her, feeling a bit awkward, like I was crossing a line between caring and flirting, especially with Trent nearby. We continued walking towards the villa, and Jobe kept apologizing to Grace repeatedly until she finally convinced him she was okay. She seemed chilly in her short dress as she tried to wrap a dirty towel around her shoulders.
"Here," I pulled her aside from the group and draped my zipper hoodie over her shoulders. She hesitated at first but then placed her hands on top of mine, gently squeezing them.
"Thank you, Jude," she said softly, walking beside me while the boys walked ahead. She held the book close to her chest, and my oversized hoodie looked like a dress on her.
"Still hooked on Bukowski, I see?" I asked, smiling at her.
"Yeah, another day, reading the same thing," she replied with a smile, glancing down. I noticed she found it difficult to maintain eye contact with me, even though her green eyes had been the subject of my daydreams since we arrived. I fought the urge to let her know that.
"You have beautiful eyes, you know?" I lost the battle. She seemed taken aback by my comment, continuing to look down but smiling nonetheless. "Thank you!"
"Are you always this shy?"
"Depends on who I'm talking to," she replied, finally meeting my gaze after a moment's pause. "Some people are intimidating." "Am I one of them?" I asked, feeling like I might have put her on the spot, but our conversation was going so well I wanted to keep it going. "Maybe!" she replied with a playful smirk, giving me a thoughtful look that made me laugh.
....
As soon as we reached the house, we took showers and changed into fresh clothes, all gathering on the backyard patio one by one. Grace was the last one to come down. We were all having a glass of wine by the firepit, laughing and talking. I couldn't really make out her figure until she approached fully because of the dark.
Her braids were out, and her hair lay on her shoulders, still wearing my hoodie. She looked comfortable in it, and it suited her better than me. Miraculously, the only empty spot was a bean bag next to me. She approached slowly and smiled at me as the fire illuminated my face.
"Hey," she spoke softly.
"Hey, you feeling better?" I asked, wanting to make sure she was comfortable after the incident at the lake.
She gave me an assuring smile. Our voices drowned in the noise of the others talking, the fire crackling, and lots of laughter. It felt like it was just the two of us. The darkness provided a sort of shield for me to freely look at her.
"Are you enjoying your stay so far?" she asked, keeping our conversation going.
"So far, so good. I really like this place!" I responded. "The house is very nice, and the view is breathtaking."
"It is," she said, either looking at my face or down at her hands while talking. "It will be a nice vacation break for you guys!"
"You said you've been coming here with your family every summer," I recalled her words from the first day. "Do you still find the place exciting?"
She sighed and leaned further into the bean bag. "Uh, yeah! But, the older I get, the more I want to experience other places as well. My dad isn't really a big fan of me traveling alone or staying someplace else... to study alone."
It felt like she was confessing an issue of hers. I wanted her to trust me, to feel comfortable talking to me about anything. I'm sure she doesn't do that very often. "I want to do my major abroad. But my dad wants me 'close' to him." she used air quotes and seemed hurt and defeated remembering her father's words. "Why is that?" "Just a stupid conclusion my dad has." She didn't want to continue the conversation, so I didn't push her any further.
While having a good time with everyone, the fire slowly started to die down. I took a look and saw Grace already asleep on her bean bag. She brought her legs up to her chest, and put her hands all the way inside my hoodie, holding them near her face.
"Guys, I'm calling it a night. I'm really tired," my dad said, and my mother agreed, getting up to leave with him.
"Yeah, itâs been a long day," Trent said, stretching. "I think Iâll turn in too." He followed my parents inside.
Jobe yawned and nodded. "Me too. This vacation life is wearing me out." Trent's mom noticed Grace fast asleep on the bean bag. She approached her slowly, lightly tapping her on the shoulder. "Sweetheart, we're heading to bed. How about you continue your sleep in your room?"
Grace hummed in response, not really registering what her mother was saying. Diane looked at me, and we both smiled at Grace's sleepy state. Diane tried waking her up again, but Grace only opened and closed her eyes a few times, not fully awake.
"Do you want me to take her up to her room, Mrs. Arnold?" I offered, not wanting to disturb her. Diane looked at me gratefully and nodded.
I stood up from my bean bag and carefully scooped Grace into my arms. She naturally nestled her head into the crook of my neck, her hands tucked inside the hoodie's sleeves, close to her chest. She felt like the missing piece of my puzzle, fitting perfectly in my arms.
Once we got inside, I said goodbye to Diane. Her room was on the first floor. She wished me goodnight and entered quietly, trying not to wake her sleeping husband who had called it a night way before us.
I took slow and careful steps on the stairs, fully aware of their creaking. After each step, I glanced at Grace, ensuring she wasn't disturbed. When I reached her bedroom door, I struggled to open it slightly.
Thankfully, her bedside lamp was on for some reason, casting a soft glow and helping me navigate the unfamiliar room. I placed her delicately on the bed. She snuggled her face into the pillow as soon as it touched the soft surface, her eyes slowly fluttering open.
"Thank you..." she managed to say in a raspy, low voice.
"Of course. Have a good night's sleep, Grace," I responded. My inner self urged me to kiss her forehead goodnight. Instead, I gently pulled the bed cover up to her shoulders. That's when I noticed a scar on her left shoulder, where my fallen hoodie exposed her skin. It was on the side she had tried to hide earlier at the lake. I brushed my fingers on it slightly, causing her to shiver. I stood up from the bed and turned off the light next to her, slowly making my way out of the room and into my own. I took off my shirt and shorts and crashed into bed only wearing my boxers. I was a bit tired myself too, but I really wanted to know the history behind that scar. .....
It had been more than a week since we arrived. Our families' bond had grown significantly over these days. Aside from our morning exercises and evening talks, I rarely spent time with Trent alone.
Our mothers were really enjoying the villa, constantly cooking something new and sipping wine on the porch. Our dads engaged in debates over various topics, beers in hand, as they relaxed by the lakeside. And then, there were always the four of us doing things together.
And green is still my favorite color.
My obsession with Grace has grown. The more time we spend together, the more she begins to trust me. Now, she maintains eye contact while we talk. She opens up about her passion for architecture, detailing her studies, her close bond with Trent, and sharing her likes and dislikes. I find myself struggling with the question of whether Grace feels a deeper connection toward me or if she is simply being friendly. It seems more than mere coincidence that we always end up seated next to each other, and that chores are consistently assigned to us as a pair.
She still has my hoodie. The other night, as we both got up for some water, I caught sight of her in the kitchen, wearing my hoodie and shorts. There was a moment of surprise in her eyes when she noticed me. She quickly tried to explain, mentioning how comfortable it was and apologizing, saying she would return it.
Instead of insisting, I simply said, "No, keep it. It looks way better on you."
Her cheeks flushed slightly, a soft smile playing on her lips. It was a spontaneous comment, but one that felt right in the moment. Seeing her wear my hoodie, looking effortlessly comfortable and somehow even more attractive, stirred a warmth in me that I couldn't deny. Let's go for a swim today, lads," Trent interrupted my racing thoughts.
Jobe eagerly agreed, but Grace lowered her gaze and muttered something under her breath. It wasn't the first time she had declined to swim. Despite hanging out with us by the lake, she never ventured into the water.
Sitting together on the patio bean bags, Trent and Jobe moved to prepare for swimming while I stayed behind, drawing closer to Grace, hoping for a moment of privacy.
"Hey, is there a reason you never join us in the lake?" I asked softly.
Her discomfort was palpable, evident in the way she shifted in her seat." It's just not my thing-" she spoke quickly.
"Can you come with us this one time? Please!" I pleaded, hoping to convince her. But as soon as I noticed her beautiful green eyes getting foggy, I knew I shouldn't push her further.
"I'll just stay in my room this time," she said quickly, standing up and leaving before I could say anything else. Her sudden outburst left a lingering sense of concern in the air. .....
We we're back at the dining table in the evening, enjoying another meal after a tiring day at the lake with only us boys. Grace hasn't spoken to me since our last encounter earlier. She quickly munched on something and excused herself sitting at the far end of the backyard near the lake view in the complete dark, with the excuse of wanting to read in peace. Me and the others had a normal routine, had a glass of wine and then went to bed. In my room, I could still see her silhouette by the lake. I decided to go up to her. Everyone was asleep, the only source of light being the moon once again. I tried to make some sound while I approached her from afar, not wanting to scare her. She turned around to look at me, giving me a tired smile and then focused her eyes back at the lake. I sat next to her. Our shoulders brushing. "You know you can trust me, right?" I asked her directly.
"I know," she replied softly, her gaze still fixed on the lake.
"Why are you afraid to swim, Grace?"
She remained silent for a moment, as if weighing whether to open up to me. I reassured her with a gentle touch on her knee.
Her breathing became more audible, and a single tear rolled down her cheek.
"It's just..." Her voice cracked, and she fell silent again.
"It's okay. Take your time. I'm right here for you." I held her hand firmly, feeling it tremble slightly in mine. "You know that scar you saw on my shoulder the other night?" she asked. I nodded at her, but still surprised she could remember that in her sleeping state. "It happened when i was younger while swimming. Do you see that empty looking house right there?" I nodded. " That's where Lily used to live." "Used to?" I became curious of where she's going with this and why was it affecting her so much. "She died. She was my childhood bestfriend." She let out a small sob, i quickly wrapped my arm around her shoulder, providing her some comfort.
"There's an old pier on the other side of the lake, hidden away now. Lily and I used to go there to play. One day, we were climbing around it, and Lily slipped. She grabbed my leg instinctively, pulling me into the water with her. She hit her head on the metal as we fell."
She paused, her eyes distant as she relived the memory.
"Lily suffered a head injury and died instantly." Grace continued, her voice catching. "I had a hurt leg and some scratches, making it hard for me to stay above the water. But I managed to pull her now-red and bloody body from the water and call for help."
Grace looked at me with sad eyes, almost as if seeking closure. I kissed her forehead gently and rubbed her forearm in reassurance, but she still seemed scared and shaky after all these years.
"So you never swam anymore?" I asked softly. She shook her head, her expression pained. "I'm afraid something bad will happen," she murmured.
"I understand," I said, kissing her temple again. I held her like that for a long time, whispering sweet nothings to her. "But what if we try something different?"
I gently took her hand and helped her stand up. Slowly, I guided her towards the water, feeling her resistance as she shook her head vigorously.
"Hey, hey, hey," I murmured soothingly, holding both her hands. "I'm not going to push you or anything, sweetheart. Just relax."
She nodded hesitantly, her gaze locked with mine, her eyes reflecting fear and uncertainty.
"We will stop whenever you want to. Let's just try to put our foot inside the water," I suggested gently.
"No, no. Jude, no please!" Grace's voice was alarmed, filled with fear.
I cupped her face in my hands and gently placed her forehead against mine, holding her close. "You can trust me, Grace." .......... Coming up next:

being their sibling
characters: tsukishima kei, oikawa tooru, suna rintarou
a/n: i write a fic every time i rewatch hq LOL sorry ik i said im abandoning this blog buuuutâŚhappy bday to this blog!! (repost from 1/5 because tags broke :(( )
part 1
TSUKISHIMA KEI
looks out for you, but he canât help that hes so emotionally constipated :â( he tries to give you advice because he genuinely is concerned for you but just is unable to word anything properly. see: âyou need to stop talking to that person, youâre being a pushover,â but he just wants you to realize youâre letting people walk all over you.
god forbid he has to comfort you because hes the wrong brother for that - youâre definitely in better hands with akiteru. he might walk in on you crying and contemplate if heâll even say anything or just ignore it flat out, or heâll say something like âdonât cry, you look stupid.â if you cry more, heâll end up swallowing his pride and sitting next to you. heâll groan and reluctantly, âfine, spill it.â
other than that, heâs going to be a sneaky little prick. definitely the type to take revenge on you if you annoy him. you eat the last piece of chocolate he was saving and suddenly you find your charger hidden deep under your bed. also loves to take things without your permission. âwhy? iâm just using it, itâs not like you need it now.â
if someone picks a fight with you, heâll be quick to extract you from the situation before saying something ruder and harsher than usual to the person. and if you tell him you like someone from his team, heâs going to look at you like youâre crazy. âare you insane?!â heâs honestly more bewildered than upset. doesnât let you anywhere near the gym. he can make an exception for yamaguchi though. âat least itâs not hinataâŚor worse, kageyama.â
OIKAWA TOORU
your life is never boring with this guy as your brother. youâre literally being dragged everywhere, practices, shopping, team events⌠youâre like âiâm not even part of the team.â he goes âwe can fix that!â and the next day you find out that youâre the manager for the boysâ volleyball team. huh, wonder how that happened.
oh my god, he MILKS you being his manager. âhold my drink, my fans are calling.â ây/n get my towel please.â youâre absolutely seething at the power trip that this guy is on. eventually, you start doing all that for his other team members and not for him, and he gets so whiney. ây/n youâll get big ugly iwaizumi a towel but not your own sweet brother?!â that earns him a spike to the head from iwaizumi.
he tells you all the gossip about the school, because believe me, he knows A LOT of things. heâll do his skin care while he forces you to listen to his gossip, cue him getting mad if you try to leave. everyone realizes why you two are siblings when you two walk down the halls and pull the exact same faces at the people heâs told you about in his gossip.
he makes you his little scapegoat for his fangirls. âoh, you want my number? youâll have to ask y/n for that, they keep my phone with them during practice!â (you dont) ânow, why donât you girls hand all these gifts to my lovely sibling for me?â (you almost immediately chuck them at his face when you see him) but you know the best way to get back at him? when he sees you even slightly conversing with ushijima or kageyama, all hell breaks loose.
SUNA RINTAROU
the devil if the devil was your brother. he takes the ugliest pictures of you, when youâre asleep, when youâre yelling, when youâre crying over a movie. he also loves to send you pictures of animals and send a âlook at you in this picture, so cuteâ. he also takes your things without asking and never returns it, youâll just find it in his bag one day.
he also is one to order you around, and it drives you mad. âpass me the remote, y/n.â âbut itâs nearer to you.â âiâll tell mom that you-â // ây/n get me a drink from the vending machine.â âwhy would i do thatâ âremember when you snuck out and i-â // âget my bag too when you get yours.â âno.â âwhat i post that one picture of you when youâre about to sneeze-â
but heâs always looking out for you. when creeps try to approach you, heâs quick to react by shooting them a nasty glare. heâs a silent kind of care. standing behind you on elevators, walking on the outer side of the sidewalk, staying up late til you come home and just telling you he just couldnt sleep. little do you know, itâs something heâs always done even as a kid. putting more food on your lunch box, holding the corner of tables when you pick something up so you donât hit your head, returning your things that are sprawled around the house to your room so you donât lose them.
and if he ever finds you crying over some guy, he sighs and sits down next to you. âwhyâre you crying over an idiot?â he then makes snappy insults at the expense of the guy, making you laugh. âsee? you look better like that. now stop crying and let me get some sleep.â he closes the light and shuts the door on his way out.

Reflections- (Warren Lipka X Reader)
Summary: Youâre Spencerâs older sister that had to come home after getting kicked out of college. Upon the return, youâre reconnected with the walking asshole that is your brothers best friend.
Word count: 7k
Warnings: smut, weed, alcohol, mention of roofie, slow burn, hate fuck
A/n: I managed to cut this down a good bit, but this is the best I could do because I love plot Iâm sorry đ also Iâm very high so this probably isnât proof read very well- I will be proofing it better in the near future!
I hang out my window, breathing in the night air after I take a hit off my joint. I sigh, wondering what Iâm still doing in my childhood bedroom at age 21. I got kicked out of college two months ago and I still havenât gotten my life back on track. I have a job interview lined up and Iâve been painting commissions, but I just feel like Iâm 14 again. My parents made it seem like Iâve completely fucked up my life and paint me as the pot smoking-drop out, so maybe I should just embrace it.
I groan when I realize that Iâve been thinking too long and joint my has gone out. I hold my favorite zippo up to re-light it when I hear my door fly open, knocking into my dresser. I gasp, whipping around quickly as I accidentally launch my lighter across the floor in the startle. I groan in annoyance when I see my idiot brother and his even more idiotic shadow standing in my doorway.
âClose the door you fucking idiots! Momâs down there!â I whisper angrily. Spencer pushes Warren into the room and closes the door quickly.
âSorry,â my brother says awkwardly.
âDamn. You still smoke even after it, like, completely ruined your life?â Warren laughs, motioning to my joint.
âOh shut up. I got caught with a single gram on campus and they made a big deal out of it; I mean come on itâs 2004 for Christ sake,â I roll my eyes, irritated that he would even bring that up, but it is Warren, so I expect nothing else. âWhat do you two fuck heads want?â I ask as I walk over to turn off my iPod so I can hear them better.
âNothing! Uhm just wanted to see how the best big sister in the world is doing,â Spencer laughs unconvincingly as he attempts to lean casually against my dresser, knocking over my perfume bottles in the process. âShit,â he mumbles as he picks the plastic bottles up off the floor. I roll my eyes, not believing him for a second. Warren looks at Spencer, scoffs, then looks back at me.
âWe want you to buy us beer,â he says flatly with his hands in his pockets. I raise my brows at him, now itâs my turn to scoff.
âYou come in my room, give me a heart attack, almost let mom know that Iâm smoking, knock over everything on my dresser, then ask me to buy you beer?â I ask, trying to understand why they thought this was a good idea. The boys look at each other then back to me.
âYes,â they say in unison firmly, but not confidently.
âGet the fuck out,â I sigh. Spencer mutters âsorryâ before turning to walk out the door. Warren closes the door behind my brother then looks at me, tilting his head to the side.
âWhy are you such a bitch?â The grungy boy asks curiously. I give him a face of disgust.
âBecause you go out of your way to piss me off.â I huff, stepping closer to him, sticking a finger into his chest. He smacks my hand away.
âEw,â Warren gags dramatically. âDonât touch me,â he mutters before turning around to open my door, flipping me off then closing it behind him.
I plop down on my bed grabbing a nice, soft pillow, then shove it to my face, letting out a blood curdling scream.
âWhy!? What the fuck did I do to deserve this?â I think to myself. I quite literally feel like Iâm back in middle school with: Dumb and Dumber constantly pestering me, Warrens stupid fucking remarks, hiding in my room with my joint, and my parents being disappointed in me. Jesus, this is all such awful dĂŠjĂ vu.
I Take a deep breath, then make my way to the bathroom for a long, hot shower. I walk into the hall bathroom then turn on our shower to warm up the water. I strip down then turn on the shower radio to the local rock station. To my pleasant surprise, theyâre playing âScum bagâ by Greenday.
âBest infomercial purchase mom made this month,â I think to myself as I lather up my body wash, letting out a content sigh. I finally start to relax.
Knock, knock, knockÂ
âY/n, I have to piss!â Warren shouts through the door. I groan, flinging the shower curtain open after turning off the water.
âHold it, Butt-fuck! I just got in,â I shout back in annoyance. He bangs on the door again.
âJust let me in!â His voice is muffled coming through the wood.
âNo, Warren!â I huff, wondering how one boy could be so annoying. âPiss outside!â I scream over the music, then turn the water back on and resume my shower. His knocking continues for another minute or two, but he eventually gives up.
I finish my shower in peace then wrap the towel around myself. I quickly run to my room and close the door behind me.
âWhat the fuck!â I shout when I see warren standing in my closet with his hands behind his back.
âDonât you know itâs rude not to knock?â he snickers. I scowl at him, holding the short white towel to my body as tight as possible.
âItâs my- What the hell are you doing in here?â I ask exasperated as I step towards him.
âSpencer says you do that nerdy makeup shit for ren fairs or whatever, and I need to borrow your supplies,â he sighs, sounding irritated even though heâs the one snooping though my stuff. I fiddle with my towel, uncomfortable at how his gaze keeps wondering down to where the fabric ends, barely long enough to cover my ass.
âWhat the fuck do you need that for?â I frown, not understanding why on earth he would need special effects makeup. His eyes follow a trickle of water that drips from my hair down my chest and between my breasts. I shift awkwardly, wishing that this interaction would end already.
âThatâs not important,â he steps towards me. âJust let me see what you have,â he says simply with his hands in his pant pockets. I groan in frustration.
âNo, you fart-catcher! I just caught you going through my shit, get out!â I scream, stomping my foot in anger, which causes the towel to slide off my breast a bit. I quickly pull it back into place, my cheeks burn pink from embarrassment and anger. Warrens eyes flutter from my chest up to my face, his lips curl into a small smirk.
âAlright,â he shrugs before walking towards my door. With his back to me, he takes his wallet out of his pocket and drops it on the floor. âY/n,â he tisks, looking at me over his shoulder with that ever familiar mischievous glint in his dark eyes. âWould you pick that up for me? I canât bend over, I hurt my back at my last game,â he asks with mock sincerity, his gaze focused on how short the towel is. He knows if I bend over my entire ass will be exposed. I look at him with pursed lips, furrowed brows, and bright pink cheeks, letting out an irritated sigh. He grins at how successfully heâs pissed me off.
I stomp over and open my bedroom door, then stomp back to his wallet, kicking it as hard as I can out the doorway and down the steps.
âGet out!â I seethe as I shove the snickering idiot out of my room, locking the door behind me. I groan, flopping down face first onto my bed. I lay there a minute, before deciding to smoke a bowl and get my pajamas on.
I retrieve my bowl and my stash from its old hiding spot behind my bookshelf.
I break up the weed and pack the small bowl, then I realize that I cant find my lighter. I check my bag again, then look around my window and on the floor. I let out a loud groan, kicking my nightstand in anger. My nerves are completely shot, this minor inconvenience is about to send me on a rampage.
With a defeated sigh, I grab a cheap Bic lighter out of my purse. I wouldnât care so much if it wasnât my favorite lighter. The silver zippo was a gift from an ex-boyfriend. He had my name engraved on one side and the skull and bat wings from the cover of the Avenged Sevenfolds âWaking the Fallenâ album on the other. Itâs the single coolest possession I have.
I grab my iPod off the speaker, then hook my headphones into it before climbing out my window onto my roof. With the cheap plastic lighter I take a hit then lay back on the cool shingles, my muscles relaxing as Rob Zombie plays in my ears. I close my eyes as the crescent moon shines her white light down on my face. I take another hit, sighing happily as I get comfortable. Finally, some peace.
âHold on,â I shoot up, furrowing my brow in thought. âI dropped my lighter when numbnuts busted into my room. I never picked it up, and when I caught warren in here, he had something behind his back⌠Warren,â my epiphany makes my ears burn red.
âGoddamn it Warren!â I shout, completely fed up with his shit, as I clamber back through my window. âWhy the fuck is that shit head here all the time,â I mumble to myself as I put my bowl away. I spray some air freshener and close my window before stomping down the hallway, barging into my brothers room. Warren sits by himself in Spencerâs bed, playing some stupid video game on the PlayStation- my brother no where in sight.
âWhere is it?â I bellow, standing between warren and the tv like an angry mother. I hold my hand out in front of his face as if the little asshole would just hand it over.
âDude! Get out of the way!â Warren groans, his eyes not even meeting mine as he uses his foot to scoot me out over, but he knocks me off my balance and I fall directly on top of him.
âWarren!â I squeal, managing to catch myself with my arms on either side of his head. We exchange a shocked look before that stupid, sly smirk creeps onto his face, reminding me that Iâm furious at him. âGive me my shit!â I shout in his face, hovering over top of him.
âI have no idea what youâre talking about,â he shrugs, his smirk never faltering. This is it. Heâs going to make me snap. I grab his shirt pulling his face up to mine, my face flushed In anger.
âI see through your little act,â I say through gritted teeth, almost in a whisper. He looks at me with wide eyes. âYou act like youâre hot shit. You think that just because you sell a little green on the side and pocket other peoples shit that youâre a man, but youâre so far from it. Youâre just a 19 year old boy who still needs his daddy to wipe his ass for him,â I all but spit into his face, leaning closer with every syllable. His face slowly contorts into pure rage. He stands up from the bed and pushes my back against the wall.
Warrens hostile glare burns deep into my eyes as his hands grip my shoulders so hard that his knuckles turn white. The drywall is cool on my hot skin as warren peers down on me, making me feel so small in his grasp.
âYou donât know shit about me, bitch!â Warren says in a tone that Iâve never heard from him before- he nearly growls at me. This shows that Iâve seriously pissed him off; I smile up at him, unable to hold back the joy- and a bit of excitement - bubbling in my stomach. His lips are pulled in a straight line, nostrils flared and his jaw locked as he grips onto my shirt, making his biceps flex.
âUnfortunately, I know you very well, Warren. Your entire life youâve been putting up this front of false confidence. Always thinking youâre special, somehow always convincing yourself that the rules donât apply to you; Youâre a pathetic burn out,â I say simply, batting my lashes up at him, enjoying the reaction- and our proximity. His nostrils flare as he pounds his fists on either side of my head.
âYouâre the fucking burn out!â He raises his voice, a bit of spit lands on my face as the harsh words drip from his tongue. I reach my hand up, wiping the salvia off.
âYeah, but I can admit it,â I whisper as I lean up to his flushed face, our noses brushing against each other. I do mu best to ignore the stirring in my stomach when our skin touches. Warren glances down at my lips, his chest still heaving with anger and his arms resting by my head. His angry eyes meet mine. The moonbeam coming through the window illuminates half of warrens face in a white light. I just now notice how much heâs changed. How mature he looks now, especially when he has me backed against the wall with a death grip on my shoulders. He just begins to dip his head down when the bedroom door swings open.
âSorry man, mom wanted help with- WoahâŚâ Spencer pauses, almost dropping the snacks from his arms. Warren jumps back, the rage on his face replaced with shock as my brother looks between us with a slack jaw. Warren clears his throat awkwardly.
âYou need to control your sister, dude,â he gives me a dirty look, walking up and taking a bag of Cheetos from Spencer. I step away from the wall, adjusting my outfit.
âWhat the fuck just happened?â
âUhm, no. Spencer you need to control your friend. Heâs a fucking klepto! He took the lighter kyle got for me!â I explain as I point accusingly at Warren whoâs already settled into the bed, munching on the junk food
âOh, you mean the guy that cheated on you?â he asks before he takes a sip out of a two liter of dr. pepper. âTwice,â he adds before letting out a gross belch. I look at him in disgust, then in offense. My ears burn red in anger once again. I let out an irritated grunt as I push past spencer towards the door.
âSo itâs no then?â Spencer asks, stopping me in my tracks.
âWhat?â I ask as I turn to face him. My brother glances between Warren and me.
âYouâre not gonna help us?â Spencer asks, looking confused.
âSpencer what the hell are you talking about?â I groan, still upset about what was happened with Warren.
âHe didnât even-â Spencer scoffs, turning to look at Warren. âYou didnât even ask her?â He asks his friend. Warren just shrugs as he picks up the PlayStation controller.
âFor the last time I am not getting you idiots beer,â I groan.
âNo! We need your makeup skills,â Spencer explains. Warren stands up from the bed, stomping in disapproval.
âWe donât need her. We just need the makeup,â he groans nudging Spencer a bit. I look at the boys in extreme confusion.
âExplain,â I sigh, rolling my eyes.
âWeâre Uhm, doing a project and we were wondering if you could make us look like old men,â Spencer says avoiding eye contact, scratching the back of his neck. Heâs acting even weirder than normal.
âUhm, yeah. Hypothetically I could if I had the proper products,â I say putting my hands on hips, wondering where this conversation is going.
âNo. We just need the products we donât need you,â Warren whines, seeming even more admit on keeping me out of their plans than usual.
âOkay whatever. Give me the money and Iâll get you guys the shit tomorrow evening,â I sigh.
 âIâm such a good big sisterâ
âWell we have that party with Chas tomo-â Spencer starts but Warren slaps his hand over my brothers face. Â
âParty?â My ears perk up.
âNo,â Warren says sternly. âWeâre not bringing your lame ass to the party of the year,â he groans.
âNo party, no makeup,â I shrug, crossing my arms. Spencer pulls Warrenâs hand away from his face.
âDeal,â Spencer smiles. Warren gives him a death glare as I skip out of the room.

The next evening Iâm stood in front of my closet sifting through my clothes. I have to admit that Iâm excited to be getting dressed up. I settle on black denim mini skirt, studded belt and a cropped and distressed Misfits shirt. I take the time to do my makeup, smudging the black pencil liner around my eyes and applying a burgundy lip stick.
âY/n come on!â I hear Warren shout from outside. I run over and stick my head out my open window.
âIâm coming!â I holler before slamming the glass shut, then shove my smoke bag into my purse.
I hop down the steps, skipping past my mother.
âIâve never seen you so excited to go somewhere with those two,â my mom attempts a joke as I slip on my beat up converse.
âFree alcohol,â I shrug with a smirk before skipping out the front door.
âY/n,â my motherâs disappointed voice gets cut off by the heavy wood slamming shut. I giggle to myself as I run to Chasâs car. I hear the door open again and my brothers foot steps approaching behind me.
âCome on guys were so late!â the meat head shouts from the driverâs seat window. My brother and I scramble into the car. Before I realize it, Iâm sandwiched in between Warren and spencer with Chas and some nerdy guy in the front.
As I search around for the middle seatbelt, I notice warren staring at me. heâs wearing a white t-shirt that fits him very well with a pair of light, baggy blue jeans. It appears that he even took the time to brush his hair. He almost looks good.
âWhat?â I scowl at warren, wondering why heâs looking at me like that. He clears his throat, shaking his head a bit as if he didnât realize he was ogling at me.
âJ-just wondering why you let a clown do your makeup,â he laughs. I huff then punch him in the arm as hard as I can, causing warren to scream out.
âSee this is-â I start to shout but Iâm cut off when Chas whips his steering wheel sharply, sending me flying toppling into warren and causing warren to hit his head on the window.
âShut up!â Chas groans. Warren and I exchange angry looks as we settle back into our seats, the rest of the ride is quiet.

The house packed full of sweaty college kids bumping and grinding into each other. The smell of alcohol and B.O flood my senses as I shimmy my way through the sea of kids packed in the narrow hallway. I finally make it to the kitchen where a bunch of frat boys are shot gunning beer. Girls surround them, completely wasted but doing their best to root for whichever guy theyâre planning on fucking tonight. The loud, shitty, pop music rings through my ears as I step closer to the commotion. A tall blonde guy from the back of the group turns to me, looking me up and down with a grin.
âHey you want in?â He holds his hand out, offering me a Budweiser. I consider it, but decide that I donât want to be covered in beer all night.
âUh, nah,â I nudge his hand away from me. He is cute though. âBut Iâll cheer you on,â I smirk, looking up at the random guy, holding up my house key. The boy grins from ear to ear, taking the key out of my hand. He punctures the can before quickly opening the tab, downing the beer almost professionally. I cheer the boy on with words of encouragement. He drops the can to the floor then holds his hands up with a righteous scream, the crowd goes wild. He turns to me, wiping his face then slings his arm over my shoulder.
âWow, Iâm impressed,â I laugh. He adjusts his crooked snap-back as he leads me to the dance floor.
âYeah you should be,â he chuckles as he guides me through the crowd of dancing bodies.
We dance for a few songs, slowly getting more handsy with each other. As my back bumps against him to the beat of the song, I make eye contact with Warren from across the room. He has a drink in one hand and his other on a girls waist as she kisses on his neck.
To my surprise, rather than looking away, he holds my gaze his he runs his hand down her back, grabbing her ass. I fight back a blush that attempts to creep onto my cheeks by averting my gaze.
âDisgusting.â I mentally barf as I turn my back to warren, wrapping my hands around the boys neck, his hands instinctively fall to my hips. He leans closer to my ear as we dance lazily in step with the beat.
âSo whatâs your name?â the boy shouts over the music.
âY/n,â I answer, smiling up at him. âWhat about you, shotgun champion?â I giggle.
âEthan,â he smiles. âWell, y/n, Iâm going to go get you a drink,â he winks. I smile, thanking him. Once I tun back around, I notice that warren and the girl are gone.
âDamn, that dude moves quick,â I wonder how he manages to get girls to sleep with him so fast when heâs so insufferable and annoying. I dance by myself for a bit as I await Ethanâs return.
âHere you go,â Ethan smiles, handing me a red solo cup full of what appears to be spiked Hawaiian punch. I smile, thanking him as I accept the sickeningly sweet drink. I hold the plastic to my lips, but before I can take a sip, itâs knocked out of my hands. The cold liquid spills down my shirt before the cup hits the ground.
âWhat the fuck is wrong with you?â I hear the familiar tone of Warrens voice shout as he shoves Ethan against the living room wall. Everyone around us stops, turning to see what fight is about to break out. My cheeks burn red in anger and embarrassment.
âWaren what-â I manage to shout in the confusion. âYouâre such a fucking asshole!â I shriek, completely fed up with his bullshit. I stomp towards the staircase, all eyes on me as crimson punch drips down my chest and legs. I open every door in the hallway until I find the bathroom.
I slam the door behind me before leaning onto the sink, looking at myself in the mirror. I scream out in frustration, my pulse beating to the bass of the music downstairs.
âWhat the fuck is wrong with Warren?â I complain to myself as I grab a handful of paper towels, attempting to absorb the drink that has soaked into my outfit. I pause when I hear the doorknob turning behind me. I watch Warrens figure appears in the bathroom mirror.
âAre you okay?â he asks as he steps towards me. His tone.. it almost sounds... concerned. I ignore his possible sincerity and instead throw the sopping wet paper towels at him.
âNo, Iâm not fucking okay! You ruined my outfit!â I scowl at him. His once concerned expression quickly contorts into the ever familiar annoyed glower heâs always dawning in my presence.
âYouâre so fucking stupid y/n!â Warren shouts, stepping closer to me. The yellow lights highlight his clenched jaw. My mouth widens in disbelief.
âExcuse me?â I ask, now pissed off even more. Warren leans back, pushing his hair out of his face then groans in irritation.
âYou almost got fucking roofied y/n! I knew that guy was bad news. I happened to be walking past the kitchen when I saw him drop something into your drink!â he explains while pacing in front of me. I roll my eyes, not believing him.
âOh come on! You expect me to believe that? With your track record, I have every reason to believe that you were just being an immature asshole finding a way to fuck with me,â I step up to him, looking into his eyes that are flooded with frustration.
âAre you fucking- I just saved your ass big time!â Warren shouts, throwing his hands up in exasperation.
âOh please,â I roll my eyes, crossing my arms, too angry to look at him. Warren sticks an angry finger in my face.
âYou are such an ungrateful fucking brat,â he says lowly, his tone sends chills down my spine. He grips my jaw, turning my head to look up at him. The angry boy glowers down at me, his face just inches from mine. âSay thank you,â he demands through gritted teeth. I roll my eyes once again.
âFuck. You.â I whisper looking directly into his apoplectic eyes. After a beat, he grips my jaw even harder, yanking may lips to his. I freeze in shock for just a second before returning the instantly bruising kiss. I wrap my arms around his neck, suddenly desperate for his touch. Within seconds, years of pent-up aggression and sexual tension finally comes to a head.
âYou piss me off so much,â he growls against my lips as his hands grip my ass so tight it hurts, making me bite back a whimper. âJump,â his voice comes out a gruff whisper. I obey, jumping to wrap my legs around his waist as he backs me against the wall, his lips never parting from mine. His nails dig into my thighs as he begins to grind against my crotch, the friction making me moan lightly against his lips. Anger and lust course through my veins as I tighten my legs around him, forcing his hips closer to mine. As much as I want to hate this, the truth is that Iâve never wanted any man more than I want warren right now. Iâm disgusted with myself, but oh so desperate for the boy Iâve despised most of my life.
âFuck, I hate how much I want this,â I whine desperately against his lips, pulling away only to slip off my shirt. Warren chuckles before setting me onto my feet. His chest heaves as he strips himself of his white t shirt.
âYou have no idea how long Iâve been waiting to see you like this,â he says softly, his eyes following his hand as it glides gently over my body. I shiver under his touch as his fingers easily undo my bra, I allow it to fall to the ground. His eyes meet mine as he undoes his belt. âBend over,â Warren smirks, motioning to the counter top. Â Biting back a smile, I happily turn around, resting my elbows on the counter. I spread my legs and wiggle my ass, knowing that he has a full view of panties under my mini skirt. I feel his hand push the denim fabric up, then he slides my underwear down my legs, leaving me exposed to him.
âHoly shit,â he groans quietly as he dips a finger into my sopping heat. He drags my slick up to rub circles on my clit. I bite my lip in attempt to hold back a whimper. âIs it me that youâre this wet for, or do you just have some weird degradation kink?â he asks as he slips a finger in my entrance, I gasp at the contact.
âOh shut the-â I begin, but cut myself off with a loud moan as his hand comes down harshly on my ass, the slap rings through the bathroom.
âYeah, thatâs what I thought,â he laughs as he slips another finger in, pumping faster. His other hand brushes over the stinging handprint left on my ass. I whimper at how good it hurts.
 I hate how right he is. I hate how much heâs enjoying this. I hate how he knows exactly where to curl his fingers inside me to earn the loudest moan. âMm thatâs the prettiest sound thatâs ever come out of your mouth,â he chuckles as he reaches his other hand around to toy with my clit. I arch my back, biting my lip in an attempt to keep the symphony of pleasure from spilling from my mouth. Iâm trying desperately not give him the satisfaction of praise, but itâs proving to be impossible.
âYouâre such a dick,â I say lowly, unable to think of a good comeback as my eyes flutter shut, that familiar tension in my stomach building.
Warren pulls away completely, leaving me feeling empty and irritated. I stand up with a frown, spinning around to yell at him, but he grabs my arm and my waist, repositioning me back over the counter.
âUh uh,â he chuckles using one hand to grip my hair, holding my head up so that I can see him in the mirror. With the other hand, he drops his pants and boxers, giving his- much larger than expected- length a few good bumps. My knees buckle at the sight behind me. âYouâre gonna stay just like this and watch me fuck you,â he growls as he uses his foot to kick my legs a bit further apart. I watch his reflection as he brings his fingers up to his mouth, spitting on them before spreading the slick gently over my folds. As he lines his length up with my entrance, he holds my gaze through the mirror, sliding into me slowly. He lets out a loud groan, his grip on my hair tightening.
The way that he fills me up is unlike any other. Squeezing my eyes shut, I do my best to hold back my whimpers as I adjust to his size. He gives me only a few seconds before he starts slamming into me.
âFuck!â I scream in shock as I clasp my hands over my mouth. Warrens strong grip is soon ripping my fingers away from my face.
âNow Youâre want to be quiet? After all the times Iâve told you shut this pretty mouth of yoursâŚâ he grabs my cheeks, sticking a finger in my mouth as he rams his cock into me. âNow you want to hold back?â He lets out a devilish chuckle, before slapping my ass even harder than last time. He uses my hair to pull my head up making sure that Iâm watching him.
His strong grip holds tightly onto my hair and my waist, making the veins very prominent in his arms. His toned torso glistens in a thin sheet of sweat as his hips buck mercilessly into me. My toes curl when I see the way heâs watching me. His eyes are dark with lust as they study every feature of my body in the mirror. His jaw hangs slack, but thereâs a never faulting smirk on his face as if this is something heâs been waiting on for a while.
He releases my hair to reach down and rub figure eights onto my sensitive bundle of nerves. That and they way that heâs hitting the perfect spot with every deep thrust and the way he looks at me is enough to send me over the edge.
âFuck! Warren!â I moan out in such a pathetic tone that I canât believe it came from my own mouth. My legs begin to shake and breathing becomes shallow as I clench around him.
âThatâs it baby. Scream my name in pleasure for a change,â he growls in my ear. My eyes are clenched shut, but I can hear the smirk in his voice. If the music wasnât playing 100 decibels over OSHA standards and every single person wasnât black out drunk, I might be concerned that someone might hear us.
âOh god⌠fuck Warren! Iâm cumming please donât stop! Just like that please!â My words come out a desperate whine with each breath punctuated by his hips thrusting into me as I come undone around him. My legs give out as pure euphoria floods my system. My eyes roll back in my head as Warren holds me up with help from counter.
âYouâre so fucking hot,â he grunts out, his thrusts becoming sloppy and erratic as low growls and moans slip out between his heavy breaths.
Warren pulls out of me as I lay with my head down on the cool counter trying to collect my thoughts. I feel him release onto my back. The warm seed dripping down my ass as strings of profanities fall from Warrens kiss bruised lips.
âHoly shit,â he pants out in a whisper. I hold my head up to see him in the mirror behind me, leaning against the wall with his eyes closed. His chest rising and falling quickly as he wipes sweat from his forehead. As if he could feel me looking, he opens his eyes. That stupid fucking smirk quickly returning on his flushed face. He watches his cum drip down my ass and onto the floor. He silently walks to the toilet paper, then- to my surprise- he cleans me up. Silently, with a content smile, he wipes himself off me.
âUh, thanks,â I say shyly with a bit of red creeping up to my cheeks. I find my underwear and slip them back on as Warren puts his pants on.
âDonât mention it,â he winks, very obviously proud of himself.
âSo uhm,â I start as I slide my dress back on. I donât even know how to act; I feel so awkward and itâs pissing me off how casual Warren is being. âDo we just chalk this up to the alcohol?â I rub my neck awkwardly as Warren pulls his shirt over his head. He lets out a light laugh.
âWell Iâm not drunk. Are you?â He asks, already knowing the answer. I shake my head no as find my sticky, stained skirt and step into it. Warren chuckles, walking up behind me looking at our reflections in the mirror. âWell, on the bright side I made your make look better,â he laughs with a wink, motioning at the mascara running down my face and burgundy lipstick smudged around my mouth.
âOh fuck off!â I huff, shoving him. He slaps my ass one last time before opening the door and stepping out. I look at myself in the mirror, waiting for the feeling of disgust to overcome my body⌠but it never comes. As I wet a paper towel and attempt to make my face look presentable, I canât help but smile. The smile turns to a giggle. The giggle turns to a loud laugh. I cannot begin to explain or even understand what Iâm feeling, but pure joy is bubbling through my body. It must be some kind of weird post nut clarity.
I grab my purse then step out the door, expecting Warren to be gone, but to my pleasant surprise, heâs leaning over the banister right outside the bathroom.
âWhat are you doing?â I ask as I step up beside him, assuming the same position.
âTrying to spit in peopleâs drinks,â he says flatly, not looking my way before a blob of spit falls from his mouth, landing on some random girls forehead. She looks around in drunken confusion, unable to identify the source. âHey bonus points,â he laughs, turning to me with his hands held up in victory. I roll my eyes, but Iâm unable to hide the smile that creeps onto my face.
âI uhm- I think Iâm gonna walk home. I need a shower,â I tell him awkwardly. Iâm so unsure of how to act now and him being so normal isnât helping.
âOh, Iâll walk you,â he says, putting his hands in his pockets. I look at him in confusion.
âWhat?â I ask, unsure if I heard him correctly.
âIâm going to walk you home, dumbass,â he shrugs taking step, expecting me to follow behind him- I do, of course.
We push through the crowds of dancing kids and out the front door. My ears ring as we step out onto the empty street, the silence is quite the change from the loud frat party behind us.
We walk in almost comfortable silence. My house is about a 40 minute walk away, but it seems so much shorter as Iâve been using the time to sort out my emotions- which Iâm not having much success with.
I grab my cell phone out of my pocket, texting Spencer that Iâm headed home so that he doesnât worry.
âWho are you texting?â Warren asks simply as if heâs been trying to find something to start a conversation. He pulls a pack of menthols out of his pocket, holding the box towards me. I smile, taking one of the sticks and popping it into my mouth.
âSpencer. I figure I should let him know where I went,â I explain as we walk down the dim and empty sidewalk. The cool late summer air makes the orange flame flicker in the wind as it illuminates Warrens face in the evening dusk. The end of his cigarette glows a dark crimson as he lets out a puff of smoke. He stops, then looks down at me as he rests his fingers on my cheek, his other hand bringing the lighter up to my cigarette. I stare up at him, admiring how the orange light highlights his handsome features. The flame reflects in his dark eyes that are fixated on my lips. I breath in, igniting the cig.
âThanks,â I smile, exhaling through my nose as we resume our walk.
âYa know, I really did save your life back there,â Warren grins with a nudge from the same hand thatâs holding his cigarette.
âYou actually saw that dude slip something in my drink?â I ask, looking at him with raised brows.
âYep. That girl I was dancing with was leading me up to one of the bedrooms when I saw the douche go into the kitchen. The dude looked the type, so I followed him in there, sure enough as he was walking away from the table, he slipped a tablet in your cup,â he shrugs as he takes a long drag.
It takes me a minute to process his words. It seems that he was actually looking out for me.
âBut⌠Why? I thought you hated me. Now youâre saying that you left a hot girl who was trying to get in your pants just to make sure I was safe,â I ask. That seriously doesnât sound like the Warren I know. Then again, I wouldnât have expected the Warren I know to dick me down at a frat party either.
âY/n I obviously donât hate you. And even if I did, I still wouldnât have let that guy drug you. Iâm not that kind of guy,â he says, sounding a bit offended that I thought that of him. Iâm seeing a part of Warren tonight that I had no idea existed. We approach my house, tossing our cigarette butts in the trash can beside the mailbox.
âNo, I know, Warren,â I smile downwards, looking away from his stern gaze. âYouâre actually a pretty good guy,â I laugh nervously. He grins as he leans against his car thatâs parked on the curb right outside my home.
âIâm really glad you said that right now. Iâm also glad that since I saved you, weâre even,â he smiles as he walks around to his driver door, reaching into his pocket. I stand on the sidewalk, looking at him confused.
âWhat Are You-â he tosses me something, I instinctively catch it, clamping it between my two hands. I raise an eyebrow, almost afraid to see whatâs in my hands. Warren chuckles as he gets in his car, starting it up as his radio starts blaring his âThe Offspringâ CD.
I bend forward, he rolls down the passenger window. I look down into my hands to see my favorite lighter broken. The top of the zippo snapped off from the base. My expression falls, rage flooding my senses.
âWarren!â I scream, more pissed off at him then Iâve ever been. He quickly reminded me of why it is that I hate him so much.
âYeah, my bad,â he laughs, rubbing the back of his neck. âYou should really keep your stuff picked up off the floor,â he shrugs. I canât even form a sentence right now. I knew this dumbass took my lighter. âNow get inside so I can leave,â he says motioning with his hand towards the door. Iâm so shocked and exhausted- physically and emotionally- from tonightâs events that I just turn and leave. My face still contorted in anger, I silently walk up the steps and into my house.
Out of curiosity, I glance out the window at Warren. He waits a couple seconds after I shut the door to pull out of his parallel parking spot. I sigh, leaning against the door.
This was the strangest night of my life

LMFAOO raven stop i literally had tears on my screenđđđ just imagine me smiling with tears falling down my face and little snifflesđanyway iâm better now so there shouldnât be any typos.
okay so lemme tell you how dinner went. well actually before we get there lemme tell you how it was meeting my new family lol. so after i had finished getting ready i was too damn nervous to walk out i had to do some deep breaths. when i walked out my room and downstairs (also our house is different, i forgot to mention that cause that wasnât really important to me in the moment) my sisters were out in the backyard taking pictures and stuff, while my two brothers and my dad were sitting on the couch just waiting since dudes get ready in 15 seconds no matter where theyâre going LFMAOđ and RAVEN tell me why my brother, the one i hugged while crying, gonna say âah the random cry baby is ready��đđđđ it was not random he needs to stop lol he just donât know. i told him to shut up and then i started to walk to my parents room to see my mom cause i knew sheâd be in there still getting ready. everything was natural. that was one thing i was nervous about, whether or not it would be weird cause i didnât know anyone. but i realized that theyâre a product of MY consciousness, i made them lol so why wouldnât i be familiar with them?Â
now! the dinner. we went to pappadeaux (i got mozzarella cheese bites shit was so good) and the way there was genuine laughs and conversation flowing around the table was so refreshing. ugh it just feels so good and the great thing is, it feels just as good as it did in imagination. what i felt in my fulfilled imagination is EXACTLY how i feel now! iâm gonna have this stupid smile on my face for a minute đđ i love my family, all of them. and thatâs 7 words i couldnât say for my old one.Â
hereâs the ask for this response
HOLD THE FUCK UP!! you went to PAPPADEAUX, a SEAFOOD restaurant, and ordered MOZZARELLA BITES??? youâre one of thoseee?? i should delete ts frđiâm appalled!
aside from that iâm weak ass hell cause yo brother really ainât have to say that! like excuse me sir..? but at the same time i understand why he didđ¤Ł
i love that you mentioned the way you felt in imagination is exactly how you feel currently! that definitely speaks volume to the fact that imagination is powerful and literally creates reality!
and then men being ready in 15 seconds is very much so accurate lmaođ then itâs just pressure to get ready before they start complaining
anyway i love love LOVED your story and feel free to send in more success stories <3

hey sucker! đđ
what would the creeps do for valentineâs day?
like yknow, would some be given small treats or do others treat it like a regular day?
happy belated valentines day! hope you guys had fun and shared some love with everyone around you! this is the closest youre gonna get to x reader content from me.
AGAIN THIS IS SET IN MY AU!!! MY AU IS PRETTY DETAILED AND HAS AN OVERARCHING STORYLINE WITH PRE-ESTABLISHED FRIENDSHIPS, SETTINGS, JOBS, CHARACTER ARCS AND WHATNOT....... so :3 yeah.
Tim and Brian probably don't do much. They'll totally grab some chocolates/candy and eat it, but just cuz its there, not as a gift. if they had a partner, they'd just go get some dinner.. flowers, basic stuff. put on an unironed button up and pick their partner up LOL.
toby might do something depending on where he is in the story. early on, he is not doing SHIIIIT. deep into his friendship with nina(who opens up a lot of his emotional vulnerabilities n stuff), he might feel a little inclined to pick up some flowers for some of the girls in his life (nina, clocky, kate, lazari) just cuz he used to do something small for his sister/mom when he was younger (cuz frank never did shit). if he had a partner, he'd def wanna do jewelry and classic flowers. he likes necklaces and rings and piercings and stuff, doesnt wear them much cuz they get in the way, but likes seeing people wear stuff he got. he's the type to make them turn around so he could put the necklace on them, but if they even slightly laugh at him trying to be sweet, he's getting mad HAHA. "ok nevermind im returning this you fucking suck" (jokingly.. but he is embarrassed). would just wanna stay home though, no nights out or anything
clocky would paint stuff. she'd give nina a portrait of herself cuz nina loooves being someone's muse, do some nice art of forest creatures and leave some notes for toby. she'd feel pretty awkward about it just cuz even when she was with her highschool boyfriend, she wasn't good at giving or receiving affection. if she's gifted any flowers (which she will be getting), she's absolutely pressing them and either sealing them in some paintings, or putting it in frames that hold her old art/art she picked up at thrifts. if she had a partner, she'd obviously paint them or something. i could see her spending a long time working through a journal to gift them, making every 3 pages a painting, drawing, or journal entry expressing something. "today you and i went to get lunch. i think the place was way too expensive, but you liked it." and then empty pages for her partner to fill in with whatever they want.
nina. ok come on. lets be serious. its nina. she's gonna buy everyone(as in toby, clocky, kate, jane, liu) one expensive gift (cologne, watches, shoes, jewelry, makeup) and then throw together mini bouquets, notes, and probably shop lift other smaller stuff cuz 'IM BROKE I SPENT TOO MUCH I HAVE TO' LOLLL.. she's the type to literally decorate her house for it, putting up some of clocky's more romantic paintings (cuz she has a collection of clocky's work), setting out heart-shaped coasters, bringing out heart shaped pillows.... honestly she probably already had those.... she'd absolutely plan galentines dinner for her friends, bake cookies, everything. if she had a partner, it would be really similar. she likes to spoil people, gift giving and acts of service are her ways of showing love - buuuut she does want to be spoiled in return, so physical affection and quality time is what she wants to receive. she wants to be treated like a princess, be picked up, have her doors opened for her, told she looks beautiful, etc.
jack is even less likely to do something than toby. before the sacrifice, he'd grab a cheap bag of individually wrapped chocolates and give them to people he knew around campus. i could see him buying the same chocolates and leaving it in his cabin. telling whoever visits him to take some. nina would leave him some flowers too(say its also from toby) and he'd be really grateful, cuz she'd be very sure to get him whatever he thinks smells the nice. that way he can still appreciate it. if he had a partner, YOU KNOW HE'S COOKING THE MOST BEAUTIFUL DINNER AT HOME. he's cleaning up, very awkwardly trying to dress nice. black button up, slacks, slick his hair back(or he'd just do whatever his partner says looks best, not too concerned with his own preference). he'd feel sooo fucking embarrassed and very nervous but he just wants to make it special. he'd write a long love letter, too
jeff isnt doing shit for anyone. he'll go steal some chocolate and mind his own business. if he had a partner, one that he ACTUALLY loved and wanted to keep around. maybe he'd pick up some flowers and chocolate, mainly cuz he knows thats the bare minimum sort of gift. he'd let them demand that day from him, which takes a LOT for him to let anyone feel entitled to HIS time. if he knows they have higher expectations (dinner, a letter, etc) he'd probably bitch and moan and be like "ugh you already know im into you why do i gotta do this shit" but if theyre serious, he'd probably do it. half assed though...
kates also not doing anything unprompted. she wouldnt even know the day is coming around. her only memories of valentines day would be passing out some candy and cards around class in elementary school, but once she was in the forest, nobody gave HER shit. she might pick some flowers and wrap it in some paper for people , but ONLY if she KNOWS they're getting something for her. like, she'd pick nina some flowers cuz she knows ninas doing something regardless, but she wouldnt get toby anything cuz she wouldnt have expected it from him. then shed feel bad. if she had a partner, again it'd be similar. she KNOWS she needs to put in the effort, but she doesnt exactly have the resources... the farm does pay her some cash since she works with the animals, but she mostly just gives it straight to toby so he can buy stuff for the cabin. but she'd keep it this time around, and quietly ask toby if he could come with her to get some stuff for them. some sweets, a necklace, scribble out a little letter. smth sweet.
janes married. and she goes all out of her wife. buys her like a 3dozen bouquet of red roses, sets reservations at nice restaurants, makes mary breakfast the morning of. all of that. i dont even know how to go into detail on this because thats just how it is for her, theres not some turmoil for her to work through. she'd also start getting sally some stuff. plushies holding hearts, balloons, sweet things like that. if she had a partner...WELL SHE ALREADY DOES!!!!
if liu knows nina is going to gift him something expensive, he's doing the same. he's going to grab her flowers and maybe some shoes or something he knows she's had her eye on. he wouldn't be really subtle about it, just text her "whats on your wishlist right now" LOLLL... he just appreciates nina's presence (after they get over the jeff situation) and likes having a little sister to spoil. he'd probably send jane a bouquet of flowers with a thank you note, since jane did a lot for him. if he had a partner, it would also be very stereotypical. date plans, picking them up, flowers, etc. he'd LOOOOVE to make one of those big baskets filled to the brim with random shit. would wanna come home and draw a nice bubble bath and have some wine. stuff like that in general...
ben, lulu, ann, and dina wouldnt do anything and wouldnt get a partner. lazari would draw some pictures for her friends! sally will draw something for jane and mary
#creeped#not everyone gets equal love cuz...idk#uhh#ticci toby#clockwork#nina the killer#eyeless jack#jeff the killer#jane the killer#homicidal liu#creepypasta headcanons#creepypasta fandom#i like when u guys call me sucker im like :D HAYYY

ALSOOO PLEASE SEND IN ANY THOUGHTS U HAVE WITH THIS AU, i love when yall have your own little headcanons it literally makes my day. also, how would u guys like this to be formatted? like chapters or like.. something else??? idk but anyways, ily u all and enjoy this fic!!!!!
Adam rambled on nervously about Paloma's snack for about the fifth time as Cece followed him into the kitchen, nodding along to every word he was saying. She knew he was nervous to leave Paloma alone so she tried her best to seem interested even though he's repeated the same thing for what seemed like the millionth time.
As Adam rambled on, he suddenly stopped mid-sentence, an embarrassed flush creeping onto his cheeks. He realized he had been repeating himself, and Cece had been patiently listening the whole time.
"Sorry," he chuckled nervously, running a hand through his hair. "I guess I'm just a bit on edge with leaving Paloma alone. I want everything to be perfect for her."
Cece shook her head in understanding, "No don't even apologize! I appreciate it, I do tend to forget about stuff. And I get it, the first time is always the hardest."
Adam sighed, feeling grateful for her understanding. "Thanks, Cece. I know I can be a bit... overprotective sometimes."
"It's a good quality, especially when it comes to being a dad," she replied warmly. "I get it, I go crazy for my little brother. I'm pretty sure I would commit a crime for him," you joked playfully.
Adam chuckled, the tension in the room easing as he appreciated Cece's sense of humor. "Yeah, me too. Paloma is my world, and I'd do anything to make sure she's safe and happy."
Cece smiled warmly, a genuine warmth in her eyes. "I can tell you're a great dad, Adam. Paloma is lucky to have you." Her smile carried her feelings and she saw herself in Adam as he talked about Paloma. She was the same with her brother and her little nephew and niece.
His expression softened, and he returned the smile. "Thanks, Cece. That means a lot."
Comfort silence filled the kitchen before Adam got a phone call and cursed under his breath, "Shit, I'm late."
Cece watched as Adam's expression shifted from one of warmth to a sudden realization that he was running late. She could sense the urgency in his voice as he cursed softly.
"I gotta get going but call me if anything happens. And if I don't answer, call Luca or mom. Oh, you don't have my mom's number, let me give it to you in case-"
Cece let out a soft laugh as she put a hand on his shoulder in comfort, "It's fine, Adam. Don't worry I'm sure I'll get a hold of you, alright? Just relax and get to your meeting in one piece."
He took a breath and then laughed along with her, even though there was still some anxiety running through his veins. He nodded, "Alright, sorry about that, you're right." This was part of the process, it would be okay.
"Don't apologize, you're okay." Cece still had an understanding expression on her face as Adam took another deep breath before walking to the door and taking his keys.
"Alright, I'll see you in a couple hours. Paloma's sleeping right now but you remember-" He saw her expression and then let out an anxious sigh before nodding. "You got it?"
"I got it, boss." You joked playfully as he smiled. "Bye,"
"Bye." He took one more look around his apartment before leaving the apartment.
As Adam left for his meeting, Cece stood in the doorway, watching him until he disappeared from view. She then turned her attention back to the apartment, a newfound sense of responsibility settling in her heart. Taking a deep breath, she walked over to check on Paloma, who was still peacefully sleeping in her room.
The apartment was quiet, save for the gentle sounds of Paloma's breathing. Cece couldn't help but smile as she looked down at the sleeping toddler.
ââ
A FEW WEEKS LATER
ââ
Adam walked into the apartment after a long and grueling practice, his body feeling the weight of exhaustion. The familiar scent of home welcomed him as he closed the door behind him. He let out a sigh of relief, glad to be back in the comfort of his own space.
He entered the living room, he noticed the soft glow of dimmed lights and the sound of gentle music playing in the background. It was a scene he had grown accustomed to since Cece had become a part of their lives.
He made his way to the kitchen, where he found Cece cleaning Paloma's dishes. She looked up and smiled warmly when she saw him. "Hey, Adam. How was practice?"
She could tell he was tired, he has been for the entirety of the week. She respected how hard he worked at practice and how he still had energy for Paloma, even after an exhausting practice.
Adam stretched his tired muscles and replied, "Long and exhausting, per usual, but it's done. How's Paloma?"
Cece's smile widened. "She's been an sweetheart. We played and watched a Barbie movie, had dinner, now she's asleep in bed."
Adam felt a sense of relief wash over him. He had been anxious about leaving Paloma in someone else's care, but seeing how well Cece was handling everything put his mind at ease. Right as he was about to respond, the familiar cry of Paloma rang through the apartment.
Cece, out of habit, immediately dropped the dishes into the sink and walked out of the kitchen before Adam spoke, "Cece, it's fine. Let me go see what's up."
"Oh, alright-"
This had been a problem for the past week, Paloma throwing tantrums right after being put to sleep. Adam had tried everything he could think of to soothe her, but nothing seemed to work.
He made his way to Paloma's bedroom and found her sitting up in her crib, tears streaming down her cheeks. "Hey, sweetheart, what's wrong?" he asked softly as he lifted her into his arms.
Paloma clung to him, her tiny hands gripping his shirt as she continued to cry.
Adam's heart broke at his daughter's cries. He held her close and whispered soothingly, "It's okay, Paloma. Daddy's here, and you're okay." His arms were sore from practice but he couldn't get himself to leave her as she continued to cry loudly.
He gently rocked her back and forth, his heart aching as he tried to comfort her. Paloma's cries gradually subsided, and she nestled against his chest, her breathing slowly evening out. He didn't want to put her back in the crib because he didn't want to her wake up again and cry, so he stayed like that for a few seconds even if he was exhausted.
Cece walked in quietly and Adam put his finger on his finger to singal to be quiet. Paloma made a soft noise and Adam let out a sigh of exhaustion but to his surprise, she didn't start crying again as she saw Cece.
Instead, she sat up in Adam's arms and reached out to Cece, making a soft, wanting sound. Cece couldn't help but let out a laugh, her heart warmed by the sight of Paloma's tiny outstretched arms.
Adam slowly gave Paloma to Cece and she immediately held onto her, putting her head on her shoulder and her eyes immediately shut.
Adam watched with a mixture of relief and admiration as Paloma snuggled into Cece's arms, her cries now fully replaced by contentment. He had been worried about leaving her alone with the Cece, but this moment reassured him that he had made the right choice.
Cece held Paloma gently, her heart melting at the trust Paloma was placing in her. She swayed softly, creating a soothing rhythm that seemed to lull Paloma back into a peaceful slumber.
Adam couldn't help but smile at the sight. His daughter was finally finding comfort and security in the presence of another person. He made a gesture to the door to silently say he was going to leave and Cece gave him a sweet smile and a thumbs up with her free hand. As he left the room, his heart swelled at the new memory. He felt himself get used to Cece and Paloma together, it was a new welcome sight.
After he took a shower, he walked into the kitchen and he heard Paloma's bedroom door open quietly and then he turned to see Cece. She caught his gaze and smiled before walking up to him.
Adam felt comfortable as he saw Cece approaching him from the hallway. There was something comforting about her presence, something that put him at ease. He couldn't help but return her smile with a warm one of his own.
"Hey," she greeted softly, her voice carrying a sense of warmth and ease. "Paloma is back to sleep. I think she just needed a little reassurance."
"Good, I'm glad. Hopefully she sleeps the whole night." Adam sighed and he still sounded tired after his shower. You couldn't help but feel bad for him, you knew how much sports and a career could take a toll on a person. She couldn't even imagine on top of all of that, having a toddler to take care of. "And thanks, Cece. You're great with her."
She waved off his gratitude. "It's my pleasure, Adam. I enjoy spending time with her, she's such a sweet girl and she makes my job so much easier."
He nodded in agreement as he listened to her compliment. "She can be handful sometimes, but she's the best thing that's ever happened to me." There was a softness in his eyes as he spoke about his daughter, a deep love that was evident in every word.
Cece smiled warmly, her heart warmed by the genuine affection Adam had for Paloma. "It's clear how much you love her, Adam. It's beautiful to see."
Adam's gaze met hers, and for a moment, time seemed to slow down as they shared a silent connection. There was something about Cece that drew him in, something he couldn't quite put into words. He immediately internally yelled at himself, he couldn't â not with his nanny.
He cleared his throat, breaking the momentary silence. "Well, I'm glad you're here," he admitted, his eyes still fixed on her. "It's nice to have some company too."
Cece's smile brightened, and she took a step closer to him. "I'm here whenever you need me, Adam. For both of you." Her eyes widened as Adam looked back at her and she suddenly felt self-conscious. "Like, in a friend way. Of course," she laughed nervously.
Adam couldn't help but notice the sudden shift in Cece's demeanor, and he couldn't help but chuckle softly at her nervous laughter. He appreciated the clarification, even though part of him was tempted to explore where that unspoken connection might lead to.
"Of course, Cece," he replied with a warm smile. "Well, you're my first official friend in Ohio. Well, other than the team."
She returned the smile, "I'm honored, Adam." She laughed at that and he joined in a second later. The laughter filled the kitchen before she felt her phone buzz in her pocket.
"Oh shoot, I gotta get going. I have to pick up my friend,"
"No problem, Cece," Adam replied, his smile still lingering. "Thanks for taking care of Paloma tonight. And get home safe, text me when you get home." He wanted to self-palm himself after that one but Cece just smiled warmly at that, making all the anxiety melt away.
"I will, thank you. See you Monday," Cece replied, her warm smile making Adam's heart skip a beat. She waved goodbye before leaving, leaving Adam alone in the kitchen with a new sense of warmth and connection he hadn't felt in a while.

ŕ¨ŕ§ continue here ( tobi and jas' conversation )
âYou know what, when I have a kid one day Iâm going to bring her shopping everytime,â Jas blurts out as they stroll through the department store looking for a dress to wear for the event and whatever piques their eyes.
âThe kid will get mad at you, kasi paikot ikot ka,â Tobi laughed at her. âHindi ka natatapos mamili ng kung ano ano.â
âPara namang natatapos ka?â Jas rolled her eyes at him, gripping Biancaâs hand on one and the other holding Tobiasâ.
âYou guys are talking about kids na?â Curiosity got the best of Bianca as she blurted out the question, glancing over at her brother as they walked.Â
âWhy? Are you not ready to be an aunt pa?â Tobi asked softly, knowing all too well that even if itâs Jas that he has to convince to not have children yet, he would definitely put it on hold if Bianca wasnât ready for it. She was his world too, after all.Â
âNot that,â Bianca deflects. âNakakagulat lang. Nanliligaw ka palang nasa anakan phase na agad ang conversations nâyo. Does Ate Jas even want to be a mom na?
Tobi raises his eyebrows at Jas, who seemed to be deep in thought about the sudden surge of questions. Tobi has heard her ask for his kids multiple times in bed but it was never brought up to conversation out of bed. It wasnât brought up either because with their set up before, it was not ideal to make that kind of plan for the future.
Jas nodded, purposefully. The answer is always yes. Sheâs not afraid to admit that. Though admittedly itâs still too early for her to be having childrenâwith her career just starting to thrive, it would be a hindrance to her abilities as a mother to balance all that. She wasnât as skilled in time-management as her own mother was, after all. But yes, she did want to be a mother. Raise a kid with her best friends like she was with her mom and her Tita Philomena raising her and Alistair back then. Despite being an only child, she never really felt like she was alone⌠even when her momâs job got too demanding sometimes. She wanted her kids to have that kind of life too.
âNot now,â she chuckled. âHindi ngayon syempre. Lagot tayo kay Mama Honey if I end up pregnant and unmarried. Sasakalin ako noon. But itâs on the list.â
âHow many kids do you want, Kuya?â
âAs many as your Ate Jas wants,â he shrugged. âHindi naman ako ang magdadala at maglalabas. Thatâs a question for someone whoâs willing to bring life to the world.â
âI want a lot of pamangkins,â Bia chimes happily as she walks over a white baby dress. âI wanna dress them up like Ate Eli did with me when I was a kid. Gotta make sure wala silang dugyot era.â
âSino may sabi saâyo wala kang dugyot era?â Tobi joked. âAlam kong tinago mo sa kwarto lahat ng picture mo noong mukha ka pang sipon na tinubuan ng bata. Swerte ka walang backup noon si Elijah.â
âAnyway, I want many pamangkins,â she smiled. âIt would be nice to see you finally settle down.â
Bianca wasnât one to show affection all the time. The closest most people got to Biancaâs affection was her inflicting her chaos on them, like her very chaotic friendship with Cielo Yang. Despite being seen bickering, the two have been known to stand by each otherâs sides in crisisâby crisis whenever Cielo Yang finds himself in a situation with fair-weathered friends who only stuck around for the sound of being friends with him. He is, after all, well-connected and well known in the school for being Elijah Yangâs little brother. Best believe Bianca blackmailed her way into making those kids leave Cielo alone despite her being 2 years younger than he was.
Hugs were never the Park family got used to. Maybe occasionally whenever Elijah was around, but on their own, Bianca could not remember the last time she saw her family have one good cuddle. Everyone has always been busy with their own thing. She was lucky to be around her brothers in the absence of their parents but that was it.Â
This is why the thought of her brothers, finally being with someone who is clingy, always wants to be with him, always wants a hugâwarms her insides. Sheâs seen the good it has done for Leon, sheâs glad to finally see it with Tobi. Jacynthe is good for Tobi. She always called it.
âWeâre gonna have many kids para marami kang aalagaan,â Jas chuckled at her. While it may seem like an empty promise now, she was sure that itâs going to be Tobi that sheâll have a family with. No one else.Â
If itâs not with him Tobi sheâd rather die aloneâwhich is a bold statement to make. But she was sure of it. She will make it work. She will not fumble. Sheâs going to birth children with his DNA whatever it may take.
âWe should start doing that then,â Tobi playfully whispers in her ear, arm snaking around her waist as he does so.
âKeep it in your pants, Louis,â she hissed at him, jokingly slapping his abdomen, making him double over while he laughed. âYou promised ha!â
ŕ¨ŕ§
âHindi sasabay si Tita?â Tobi asked as he took Jasâ suitcase that she was lugging towards his car.
âYeah, Sunday morning na raw sâya magdrive to Isabela,â she smiled at him, pressing a soft kiss on his cheek as he carried her luggage up the trunk of his car.Â
It was Saturday evening when they decided to drive so that they would have more time to prepare for the party. Jas ended up just buying a new iPad for Isolde after consulting with Hailee and finding out that she will be taking up a pre-med course for college and will be needing a new one to replace her old outdated iPad.
âI have you all to myself then?â pabirong ngumisi si Tobi sa kanya kaya naman agad itong nahampas ni Jas.Â
âGabi na!â
âBetter! Walang masyadong makakapansin!â
âAt least wait until nasa hotel na tayo!â Jas argued with him. Tobi was only teasing, she knew that. He never forced her into anything she wasnât comfortable with anyway. Sure he can be persistent with the other things, but anything that comes remotely close to their sex life, was a solid boundary if ever Jas says no.
âYouâd be too tired sa byahe,â he smiled at him, eyes disappearing as he did before planting a soft kiss on her forehead. âI was just joking naman.â
Car rides were never quiet with Jas and Tobi. Jas was playing their demos on the car sound system, trying to rewrite some lyrics and occasionally recording more clips whenever they thought of a better lyric to replace it. Tobi used to think they did that for work whenever he would drive her home after hooking up back then. Doing it now seemed more⌠intimateâlike he was finally baring the meanings to the songs he wrote and why he wrote them while simultaneously rewording and adding more words to the poetry theyâve produced.
At âwag kang bibitaw, âwag kang mawawala
Oh aking dinadala ang bawat piyesa ng ikaw
Anong gagawin kung wala ka?
âWere you really that hurt when you heard I was leaving?â Jas blurted out as she felt a squeeze in her chest as the last post-bridge of the song that they just finished the demo for this morning rolled out. She has been feeling that anguish ever since she first heard him record the few lines that he wrote for the song this morning.
Tobi nodded while still keeping his eyes on the road. He didnât want to feel that way again. But it had to be talked about. What happened before they made up was still left untalked about which was concerning to say the least but it is a relief that she brought it up now.
âLovey?â
âI was more scared than hurt,â he sighed. âIt was happening all so sudden. I havenât been serious with anyone before you came along and it wasnât supposed to end up that way. I was so hurt with what Kashi did to me back then na akala ko hindi ko na kaya magmahal uli. So when I heard she was coming back I made the most idiotic decision to meet with her to see if I still felt that. But it only led me to realize that Kashi can never make me feel like you do.â
âHard?â
âDown bad in love, pretty,â he snorted, correcting him as he reached for her hand, bringing it to his lips to kiss her knuckles. âAng bobo na I needed an ex to make me realize that but then I heard that you will be moving to LA for Hyacinthâgoddamn, I almost lost my mind, Jas. I thought it was pointless and I wasnât going to be able to make it up to you for my idiocy. I was so fucking scared that I wasnât going to see you again that I texted my mom and begged her to help me.â
âShe did mention that,â she chuckled at him.Â
âShe did a great job convincing you, thank godââ
âShe didnât have to convince me, lovey,â she smiled softly, warming his cold hands with both of hers. âI mean of course I wanted to throw myself out from the Peakâs deck, but if anything your mom really just made it easy for me to admit that I was just as stupidly in love with you. Ang corny pakinggan which is so off-brand for the both of us, but yeah. Stupid is the right word, I think.â
âThe mere thought that you fucked up and I was losing you made me want to rot in bed back in New York,â Jas continued. âJusko! Pinipigilan na ako ni Khloe na magsulat kasi hindi na daw nâya kayang marinig yung linyang âanong gagawin kung wala kaâ. Ang tanga tanga daw pakingan kasi nakaya ko naman ng wala ka but the thing about that was you make life easier for me and I donât think you even notice that.â
âI donât think I do, pretty,â he smiled.
âNormally, hindi ako papayag agad na pumunta ng Isabela if itâs not for something really important. I mean, yes, Isolde is important to meâbut Iâve been absent on almost all of her birthdays, it wouldnât matter to her that much if Iâm not there because she knew I was busy. But the thought that you will be there too makes me feel better about going there. Kasi I know I wonât be isolated. Hindi ko masyado mararamdaman na ako âyung pinsan doon na alam ng lahat kung sino pero hindi naman nila talaga kilala,â Jas explained as she looked at the window, watching as the tiny droplets from the light showers a while ago make lines on the glass pane as the car moved. Tobi could not help but glimpse and see the sparkle in her eyes that he cursed himself for dulling in the past weeks that came before. As much as he wanted to keep watching her, he had to tear his eyes away from her and bring his eye back on the road, trying to focus on it instead of the goddess divine that was yapping his ears out right now.
ŕ¨ŕ§ continue here ( tobi and jas' tweets )
Jacynthe stirred awake as the warm sunlight from the glassdoor of the balcony greeted her, though it was not without noticing that the other side of the bed which was empty when she fell asleep was empty once again. If not for the disheveled sheets and Tobiâs lingering warmth on his side of the bed, Jas could easily think that Tobi had run away from her last night and never slept next to her at all.Â
Rolling over her side of the bedâs nightstand she reaches for her phone to call him to ask where he was, to which she was surprised to find out that he had left his phone behind. Why would he even leave her like that? Is he avoiding her? He didnât want to go to bed with her last night and was taking too long in the bath and now sheâs waking up to an empty side of the bed with him nowhere to be found. Maybe he doesnât want to be bothered?
Jas finally decides that maybe it was all in her head and dragged herself to the bathroom to get ready. She was told that their room was in between Hailee and Isoldeâs and her grandparentsâ respective rooms. But at this hour, Hailee is probably out working out and Isolde would probably still be getting her beauty sleep. Alright. If Tobi does not want to be bothered then she should make an effort not to. Off to her grandparentsâ hotel room she was, but before she could even open the door, it swung itself open, revealing a bright eyed Tobias with a paper bag on one hand and the other holding up a carton of coffees.Â
âAy ang aga mo naman gumising,â Tobi chuckled at him as Jas swiftly moved to the side to immediately to let her suitor in and closing the door after him.
Tobias would be too dense to not see the expression on Jacyntheâs face. She was a morning person, he swore that nothing made this woman happier than a little sunlight in the morning. The only reason he thought heâd be able to get away with buying coffee so early in the morning was the fact that they arrived so late last night and thought that she would want to sleep in. The way her eyebrows were almost touching was enough evidence that someone was indeed upset that she woke up alone this morning.
âI called for room service kaninang umaga, their coffee is shit,â he explains softly as soon as he sets their breakfast on the table, walking over to Jas to properly apologize for leaving so early. âBaka samaan ka lang ng sikmura.â
âIâm sorry for leaving you alone in bed, pretty,â he hummed before pushing her chin up with his index finger to make her look at him. âBumili lang ako ng almusal natin. Sorry po.â
He was too cute to stay mad at but incredibly hot in the broad daylight with his dry-fit shirt and sweatpants that he most probably slept in last night. God. She could already feel it pooling between her legs as she feels her knees weaken at the sight of his face apologizing to her like that. It didnât help at all that she was sexually frustrated from not getting it last night.
Jas couldnât give two more fucks about their food turning cold. If she does not get fucked in this very moment she might as well just die, it would make no difference. Thus, in a blink of an eye Jasâ lips were on his. Tobi does not hesitate to kiss back as Jas guides him to walk backwards to the bed, his knees hitting the edge as he falls on his butt, breaking the kiss as he does.
âPretty, your grandparents are in the next room,â he pants, as he tries to slow down Jas from taking his clothes off.
âDo I look like I care about that right now? Iâm literally 25,â she rolls her eyes at him, which in truth annoyed Tobi that sheâs getting that attitude out of nowhere. But it did not bother her in the very least that Tobi was showing disdain for her attitude, she knew what she wanted and she was desperate for it.Â
âPlease, remove this na, lovey,â Jas lets out a quiet whine, understanding that Tobi was only worried of her grandparents hearing, especially now that they are very much aware that they arenât technically officially together yet. âIâll be quiet, lovely, please.â
âWork for it then,â Tobi raises a brow at her, as if challenging her to do the work herself if she wanted it so badly. Jokes on him though because Jacynthe doesnât turn down a good challenge, especially now that itâs going to benefit anyway.
Jas takes no time tugging his shirt off and helping him out of his pants as Tobi watches her intently, taking off her silk button up pajamas and shorts that leaves barely anything to the imagination.Â
Tobi then reaches for her body to pull her close to him, watching at the cold breeze from the hotel air conditioning hardened her nipples. âLet me prep you first, hmm?â
âNo need naââ
âAh, no,â Tobi refuses, standing up as he places soft but domineering kisses on his girlâs lips before maneuvering her down to where he was previously seated, spreading her legs and throwing them on both of his shoulders as he kneels before the glory sitting before him. âAlways need to prep my pretty little hole, right?â he says, leaving teasing kisses on her thighs slowly working his way to her inner thighs before finally lapping at her already sopping wet cunt.Â
âShit, Louisââ Jas accidentally moans a little too loud as soon as she felt his warm tongue licking a long strip up to her bundle of nerves, his finger separating her folds to allow him more access but he stops as soon as he does so, glancing at the beauty beneath him, propped up on her elbows already panting heavily from such little actions.
âI will stop if you keep on moaning that loud,â he calls intently, as if warning her. The younger one knows better than to test him because he will in fact stop if she does. âUnderstand, pretty?â He asks, just as the same time he prods a finger in her making her purse her lips tightly into a thin line, eyes shutting as she holds back a whine. Jas nods, trying to avoid making as much noise as she could.
âSay it, pretty,â he orders sternly before going back to sucking on her sensitive nub.Â
âYes, I understand, lovey,â she whines pathetically, trying to keep her voice as low as possible.Â
âGood girl,â he hums against her, sending vibrations through her body making her hold back another whine and trying as she might to mask it with slow breaths through her nose to avoid making any more noise.
Tobi continues to flick her nub with his tongue while his fingerânow fingers as he already has two curling up to his g-spot, making Jas buck her hips against Tobiâs mouth, sending even more waves of pleasure to her entire body as she does so.
âGodâahâfucking damn it, Tobi, Iâm so close,â she whines as she her arms gave out leaving her sprawled on the bed clutching the sheets on the unmade bed as her legs shake around Tobiâs head. âDonât stop, lovey, pleaseââ
âHmm?â Tobi hums as he tears himself away, still convinced that Jacynthe has to work for her orgasm this time.Â
âLovey!â Jacynthe cries, tears now freely streaming from her eyes down to her ears as her orgasm was torn away from her just seconds before it does. âAng sama ng ugaliâŚâÂ
Tobi could not help but chuckle at how helplessly and sexually frustrated she was because she still managed to pull herself up and help him settle on the bed through her tears.Â
He was now propped on the bed, back resting against the bedâs headboard while Jas hovered over him, looking at him as if begging that he does the work. Unfortunately, she brought this upon herself and Tobi was determined to let her have the experience.Â
âCareful, pretty,â he says as he grabs on to her thighs, carefully guiding her as she aligns his girth to her cunt.Â
âYeah, I shouldâIâm about to fucking impale myself with your dick,â she spats angrily, clearly upset that Tobi, someone whoâs more than capable of making her cum right then and there just decided that he wasnât going to let her do so. âI should be careful!â
âWatch that pretty mouth, pretty girl,â he smirks as he eases himself into her, trying not to go too hard just yet.
Tobi wastes no time as he guides Jas down to his lap, his cock fully sheathed inside of her like, fitting like a glove. âFuck, Tobi,â she whines against his neck as she clings to him, overwhelmed with the pleasure from being full of her suitorâs cock.Â
âYou promised to be quiet, pretty,â he chuckles. âNow be quiet and move.â
Biting her lower lip as a terrible attempt to keep her moans in, Jas does what she had to do. Lifting her body up before dropping back down, feeling his length touch her cervix as she does. âShit, pretty,â he hums against her chest, hands moving to take one of her breasts to his mouth, tongue playing around her already hardened nipple as the other hand toyed with the other.Â
The euphoria consumes Jas as she bounced on him relentlessly.Â
âAng bait bait mo pa sa harap ng lolo mo kagabi tapos nakakandong ka sa akin ngayon?â she blushes from the embarrassment at what he just had said. They were greeted last night despite it being incredibly late by her grandparents. Jas was seemed like the innocent little sweetheart that her grandparents seemed to be used toâhere she is now though, âFucking yourself with my cock? So dirty, Jacynthe.â
âNot my fault youâre like so fucking hot, you son of a bitch,â she retaliates.
âAlso not my fault youâre like a bitch in heat, humping my cock, pretty,â his condescending smirk almost pushes Jas to the edge as he grabs on to her ass and helps her go faster and harder on his cock. The sound of skin slapping and panting filled the room, one could only hope no one suspects a thing on whatever the fuck is happening inside their hotel room right now. âThatâs what you are right? Prinsesang prinsesa ka pa naman dito sa Isabela. Ano nalang ang iisipin nila kapag nalaman nilang ayaw mo magpakain kanina dahil kastang kasta ka na? Hmm?â
âFuck, lovey, Iâm close,â Jas whimpers quietly to his ear, tears flowing down her face once again as Tobi began fucking up to her, holding her hips up as she clings to his neck, sobbing from the overwhelming pleasure that was shooting continuously up her body.Â
âI knowâshit,â he hums, âSqueezing me so good, pretty. Keep doing that.â
âWhere do you want it, pretty?â he asks, hand reaching to grab her face make her look at him as they both neared their highs.Â
âInside, loveyâfuckâcum inside, please, pleaseââ
âWant loveyâs cum inside you, pretty?â he coos condescendingly before he pulls her to place a kiss on her lips, which she returns immediately, lips parting slightly to allow him more access to her mouth.Â
âIâmâŚâ Jas mumbles in between a pant and a sob as she falls completely limp against the older as soon as she feels the wave crashing over the grave that she had just dug for herself. Tobi came not long after, leaving them both spent.
By the time they were done, the sun was already shining too bright. It would not be long before her family starts looking for her so as soon as her breathing calmed down, Tobi carefully pulled himself out of her and got up, making Jas whine at the emptiness along with the cold air that embraces her in the absence of Tobiâs warmth.
âLeaving na uli?â Jas asks, post sex haze mixing well with the sunlight from the glass door making her look like the absolute goddess that she was.Â
Tobi could not help but lean back to the bed and press a long wholesome kiss on his girlâs lips. âYouâre coming with me, pretty,â he chuckled as he helped get up and hoisted her up to go to the bathroom. âGo pee muna, Iâll fix the bath while you do.â
Jas does what he says. Heâs always been like this, she thinks. Has it been the same for every girl that he has slept with? She doesnât even want to know. She already won, there was no point in wondering if the other girls have experienced the same thing as she did. That, in hindsight, was something that she never wouldâve thought she would be thinking after sleeping with someone. It has always been a constant battle of trying and doing the most to make sure she doesnât get left in the end, but here she is⌠finally⌠with the assurance that she has always deserved that Tobi will never leave, if he does, he will always come back home or she will be going with him.
She finally has what she deserves and no matter how complicated it got before they got here⌠Elijah is right. Everything will always end up well. The Park boys have that attitude of never leaving things unresolved. No matter how long, they will always go back and fix what went wrong.
âWear this first habang nagpupuno pa yung bathtub, pretty,â Tobi picked up her arm and helped her get into her purple robe that she had brought with her in her suitcase. âBaka ubuhin ka sa lamig.â
âYouâre so cute,â Jas snorted, leaning in to give him a hug as soon as he finished tying her robe. âI love you, Louis.â
âI love you, Jacynthe,â he replies to her before he moves to check the tub, which by now is already a quarter full.
Jas could not help but stare at him fondly as he nerds about the water on the tub. âIs this temperature okay with you, pretty?â he asked, even asking her to hold out the back of her hand and dropping a couple of drops on it to let her have a feel on the water. Jas assures him that itâs fine before he goes back to their suitcases where he retrieves a bath bomb.Â
âWhy do you even have a bath bomb?â Jas laughs.Â
âBianca got you these behind your back yesterday,â he snorted before he dropped it on the water, allowing it to fizz.Â
âCute nâyong magkapatid,â she chuckles as Tobi peels off the robe that he had just put on her from her and guiding her in the bath before taking his off and joining her.Â
âYouâd be a cute girl dad, Tobs,â she blurts out as Tobi rubs the shampoo suds on her hair. âYou have the experience to be girl dad. Kayo ni Leon.â
âI suppose, I do,â he smiles at her as he makes a make shift crown on the top of her head with bubbles. âIt would be a breeze. Youâd be a good mom too.â
âSometimes I wonder if I really could though.â
âWhy would you think that, pretty?â
âI mean, unlike you guys and Eli, I didnât have younger siblings,â she hummed as she reached for one of hid hands to fiddle with. âI saw my younger cousins here rought about twice or thrice a year. I donât even know if Iâd be able to hold a baby and make them stop crying. The thought of not being able to do it just scares the living crap out of me. I donât want to be a disappointment. Especially after my mom raised me so well on her own.â
âWhen the time comes, Iâm sure youâll do fine,â he smiles at her. âSasamahan naman kita. Iâll help you with our future kids alright? Weâll make sure they wonât have the same experiences as we did as kids.â
âThank you, Louis,â she grins, turning her body just enough to be able to kiss him once more. âYou make me so happy.â

âI suppose you are the Tobias Park that everyone is talking about?â Governor Kang smiles at Tobi. Despite the dark demeanor that the politician exuded to most, he was nowhere near the strict governor that everyone knew him as. He seemed to soften up at the sight of his grandchildren, Jacynthe especially.
âGood evening, Governor Kang,â magalang na sagot niya sa matanda bago nagmano sa kaniya. âOpo. Ako po si Tobias Park, manliligaw po ni Jas.â
âManliligaw, I see,â he nodded at him, reaching out to ruffle his hair. âKahit kailan ay hindi nagsama ng nobyo o manliligaw dito si Jacynthe. Nababalitaan nalang namin na sinusundan na pala sâya ng mga ex nâya.â
âTobi saved me from the said stalker, Lo,â Jas smiled at him softly, going up to him to hug his arm. âSo you have to be nice to him.â
âSalamat at tinulungan mo si Jacynthe,â he replied to him.
âAy wala po âyon, Governorââ
âLolo Javier,â he corrects him, with a soft smile before he glances back at Jas who clung to his arm. âLolo Javier ang itawag mo sa akin. Anyone my dear Jacynthe trusts enough to bring her must be extremely special.â
Kyle was right after all. Despite all the rumors that surrounded their family, the Kangs were welcoming people.Â
âTobi!â an elderly woman chimes as she takes the other arm of the governor. âI am Madeleine Kang, Jassyâs Lola! I suppose ikaw ang boyfriend ni Jassy?â
âLa, manliligaw palang!â Jas tried to argue.Â
âMamma mia, Jassy! Doon rin magtatapos âyon!â the woman giggled as she walked over to Tobias to give him a hug. âYouâre a special boy, no? I trust that youâre going to help Daphne to keep this lady in check. You know she can be a little wild sometimes! Tapos would always refuse help even if we offer it.â
Tobi looked at Jas softly as she walked over to hold his hand, wary that her grandparents might be intimidating him too much. The older couple takes this as a sign to leave, as Madeleine Kang happily pulls her husband away. However, he couldnât help but wonder what pushed Jas to think that she was the odd-one-out among all these people that seemed to know her to this extent. Her dad hasnât come around either, thinking he might be absent for the occasion.
âAre you okay, lovey?â
âIâm okay, pretty,â he smiles at her, squeezing her hand to confirm his sentiment. âIkaw?â
âJust a little uneasy,â she hummed. âI kept overhearing the titas shit talking me and mom over there.â
âAlam ba ng mga mga lolo mo?â
âItâs nothing I canât handle, Tobs,â she smiled at him, choosing to swallow the criticisms that she and her mom kept on hearing from that specific crowd in the family. âBesides, none of them really cares enough to get to know me beyond the way that they already do.â
âKahit na.â
âAlam mo, I figured early on that they are still very convinced that my mama used up all my dadâs money for her med school. Alam lang nila namatay yung parents ni mama. I donât think any of them bothered to find out that we both lived off her inheritance and her trust fund and completely nothing from dad in the first few years na wala sila lola. Dad was a complete slob when it came to paying child support. I barely got anything from him, really. Noon lang tinanggap namin sâya ni Mama uli. But after he cut him off again for cheating on mom on multiple occasions after we forgave him on multiple occasions as well, I donât understand why they still have it in them to think that mama and I couldnât have made it without him.â
Tobi mentally notes the answer to his questions a while ago. Having this big of a family did have its cons. Most of it he wasnât able to experience since he had a relatively small family and most of his cousins were living abroad. Well, technically they moved back now. But even then, these kinds of drama weren't really present in them. They were all distant and individualistic to care about how the other family was holding up.
âTigas ng ulo kahit kelan,â he shrugged before pulling her into a hug.Â

so i'm trying to manifest and i think my problem is that i focus on the 3D too much, but i don't understand how people can make the shift from focusing on the 3D to focusing on the 4D
everyone always says it's as simple as realizing i am pure consciousness and thats it. i want to believe that it's that easy and i'm trying to get there, but i am really struggling - i seriously don't understand why it's not clicking for me
i know this is a really stupid question and you'll probably delete it, but i would really appreciate if you could make a post going into more detail about making that mental shift of focusing more on the 4D instead of the 3D (especially since all the other blogs ive looked at don't go into it)
Focusing on the 3D
Hi anon! Thanks for the question. First of all, I need you to take a deep breath and calm down. I can guarantee you that almost all of the loa bloggers once went through the same predicament as you did and they arenât any different. I myself occasionally struggle with it but we are human, first and foremost. It happens. Here is what helped me shift my focus to the 4D instead of the 3D:
Closing your eyes.
No seriously. I know it sounds so stupid but it worked for me. Neville says that the key to living as though you had your desire is to completely turn away from what your physical senses tell you, so close your damn eyes and turn away from your senses! If I find myself worrying about 3D circumstances, I quite literally sit there and close my eyes and calm my mind for a second. I let no thought pass and just find some peace and quiet. Then when I feel myself calm down, even just slightly, I start to imagine/visualize what it would be like to have my desires now.
Letâs take sps for example. So I sit there having closed my eyes, my mind blank, then I visualize what it would be like if me and my sp were together now. What would we be doing? What would he say? Really involve your senses in it, feel your hand holding theirs, feel the butterflies in your stomach when you see them kiss you, all that cheesy stuff. You just saw that in your mind in the present moment, right? So you have your desires now, you just witnessed it from within you. To me, itâs really no different from daydreaming and I already do it quite a lot so this was not difficult for me at all.
Remember other moments
I also make it a point to recall all the times I manifested something just by really thinking about it and standing firm on my decision. I know that when I was subconsciously manifesting my dream car, my mom and I were struggling financially to find a way to pay to possibly afford it. She kept telling me how we couldnât get the car since it was too expensive and how I should find a different one. In the 3D, I physically heard her say that, but I didnât let it sway me at all. I kinda just waved it off and talked to myself (in my head) about how beautiful the car was and I remember this part vividly, but I imagined myself hearing the bass in my dream car as if I was inside it and how loud the sound system is LMAOAOAOA. My previous car had no bass in it at all and it was an older version. And now, I have that exact same car playing the bass that I had once envisioned myself hearing prior to getting it. Really think back to moments where you dwelled on something despite what happened physically that in the end, made you get what you wanted all along. For me, building that belief gives me proof that our thoughts do create and that this is very much a real thing.
Do not accept your 3D as final. If you can create the circumstances you are in unconsciously, you sure as hell can reverse it consciously. If you feel nervous or are riddled with anxiety, constantly worrying if youâre doing it right, remember that YOU ALWAYS DO IT RIGHT. Your worry and doubts have no effect on your manifestations, really feel the relief of having all of your dreams within reach because you can absolutely achieve all of them. See it in your mind, donât worry about how you are emotionally feeling. As long as you stand firm mentally, you will get what you desire!

Bolin and Fawning
So, I've wanted to make a post elaborating on Bolin and his people-pleasing tendencies for a while now. Since I incorporate this aspect of his character into most of my fics and I belive it is the key to understanding a lot of his behaviours during the show.
There's no way you can't interpret Mako and Bolin's childhood as traumatic. Having a parent killed in front of one is bad enough, however the continued strain and fear of their childhood spent on the streets likely would've caused complex trauma and lasting psychological effects.
Mako: [Defensive and angrily.] No! You don't know what you're talking about. I just ran numbers for them and stuff. We were orphans out on the street; I did what I had to do to survive and protect my little brother. Korra :[Frontal shot; sympathetically.] I'm sorry. It must have been really hard. [Pauses; carefully.] Can I ask what happened to your parents? Mako :[Close side shot; sighs.] They were mugged, by a firebender. He cut them down right in front of me. I was eight.
Mako : Why? He got paid. You didn't see any pro-benders crying for us when mom and dad died, and we got dumped on the street. Life is hard. You either hustle or get hustled.
For Mako, the way his childhood affected him is pretty obvious. He puts up a tough exterior, as he is the person who usually confronts the danger and protects Bolin both physically and emotionally (to some extent).
Bolin is less obvious.
In fact, he sometimes seems like his difficult childhood barely affected him at all. He's upbeat, cheerful and jovial... the complete oposite of what one would assume someone suffering from horrific trauma would.
Bolin tries extremely hard to make himself palatable to others. He is a people pleaser, through and through.
And this reaction would make sense, when you remember Bolin's circumstances throughout a huge part of his childhood.
He was a small child, completely dependent on his brother, surrounded by dangerous and horrible people. Shady Shin was more than willing to attack the boys at the drop of the hat, depite them having been working for the triple threats for a while. Him and his brother had to scrape and beg for money and food. Their lives were at the mercy of complete strangers.
Why wouldn't Bolin be wary of other people's emotions, when pissing someone off could mean the literal death of him and his brother.
His trauma manifests in a way very in line of the fawning response, one of the four trauma response.
Let's go through some signs of fawning:
Looking to others to see how you feel in a relationship or situation
Bolin has spent his entire childhood looking to Mako for advice and guidance. This is a pattern that has kept them both safe and relatively comfortable throughout all their hardships.
It's only natural that Bolin would still continue this pattern into their late teens. He reaches out to Mako for advice.
Bolin: So, what do you think of Korra, in a "girlfriend" sort of way? Mako : She's great! But I think it makes more sense for me to go for Asami. Bolin: [Slightly annoyed.] I was talking about a girlfriend for me! Leave some ladies for the rest of us!
Or he takes Mako's advice even if he initially disagrees. Mako holds incredible sway over Bolin, even deep into their adulthood.
Mako: So, you and Opal seemed to hit it off dinner. I think she's really into you. Bolin: Yeah, I know. She's sweet and pretty and super nice. Too bad she's not my type. Mako: Right, I forgot. Your type is dumb mover star or psycho ice princess. Bolin: [Spits out his toothpaste.] You know, that really hurts a little bit. Right ... [Presses a fist to his chest.] here. [Looks at mirror, adjusting his hair.] Maybe you're right, bro. Maybe Opal is Bolin material. Thanks. [Flirts with his reflection.] Yeah!
He also reaches out to Mako in times of distress, like when he was having trouble with Eska. Which doesn't surprise me, the brothers are still, to some extent, stuck in the same place they were as children. Bolin as the small child under Mako's protection, despite them both being almost grown men. When Mako starts rejecting Bolin's pleas for help, dealing with his own problems at the time, Bolin starts looking for someone to fill a similar role in Varrick. Which is a terribke idea because Varrick is evil.
Feeling like one has no identity or authentic self
Bolin is a performer in many ways. As a probender, a mover star and simply as a person. He bases his perception of himself on how people percieve him and around the people who are close to him. Team Avatar is a huge part of his own identity and he is terrified and dismayed when his friends start growing as people while he stagnates.
Bolin: I guess I just miss my friends. Everything is going so well for me, but it feels empty without everyone around. Korra's gone, Mako's in jail, you're doing ... business-lady stuff. Team Avatar's fallen apart.
Bolin hasn't yet "found himself". He flits from passion to passion, from career to career. He's not sure of who he is, and what he is supposed to do in life. He's carefully crafted a pleasant persona, and now he has difficulty telling what is part of that persona and what is truly him.
Constantly trying to please other people, whether through flattery, affection, or catering to the demands of others
Where do I start. This is one of Bolin's defining characteristics. I don't think he even realises what he's doing, bue is very good at catering to people.
Varrick: Look how these people love you, kid! They're eating that cornball spiel right out of your hand. Bolin: The trick is, whenever I get confused, I just say "Republic City" or "fans", and then everyone cheers. Varrick: I think I just figured out your true calling.
It doesn't even feel very manipulative, more like a puppy that learnt that performing certain trick will get them a treat. To Bolin, subconsciously, pleasing others is a survival strategy.
At the first sign of conflict, the first instinct is to âappeaseâ the angry person
This behaviour can be seen in multiple situations. The most stark examples of this are his relationships with Eska and Kuvira.
Bolin immediately began appeasing Eska, letting her abuse slide, basically being her slave and practically bendig over backwards to keep her from terrorising him. He's still terrified of her years later in B4.
Bolin and Kuvira's relationship, while not romantic, follows a very similar pattern as the one with Eska. Very little has changed since that. I find it absolutely heartwrenching how Bolin did his best to accomodate Kuvira, that he stuck by her when everyone he knew was telling him she was bad news, all while she was manipulating and using him.
Kuvira: [Menacingly.] Your loyalty seems to be wavering. Bolin: [Panicked.] No--no, I'm totally on your side, completely, one-hundred-percent loyal.
Ignoring one's own beliefs, needs, preferences, thoughts, and feelings to please others
This once again, goes back to Kuvira as the most obvious example. There are other ones, such as Bolin only getting with Opal because Mako suggested it, and his role as Nuktuk. But Bolin's scenes with Kuvira really highlight his tendency to minimise his own needs and feelings in order to please someone.
Bolin: I'm just not sure about this whole "Empire" thing. It seems pretty aggressive. And what was that part about the crushing? Kuvira: That was just some ... tough rhetoric to let people know that we mean business. Believe me, [Puts a hand on his shoulder.] conflict is the last thing I want. Will you help me make history, Bolin? Bolin: [Doubts for a moment.] I'll stand by you. Kuvira :Thank you.
Trouble setting healthy boundaries in relationships
This loops back to Eska, but I think Bolin just has issues with boundaries in general. He struggles with setting boundaries with his romantic partners of course, but he also struggles with this when it comes to Mako. Granted, it is also probably because Mako himself subconsciously doesn't want Bolin to set those boundaries. The bros falling out of their typical codependent state must be terrifying for them, since it's what kept them alive for so long.
Bolin probably has very little understanding of boundaries, since his own were probably disrespected so much when he was growing up.
Okay that's enough of me rambling about best boy for now. Apologies if this is poorly phrased I really wanted to get this out before i go to bed tonight and im really sleepy.
There's a lot more I wanna touch on with Bolin, and this serves as more of a compilation of notes about his behaviours. A jumping off point, if you could call it that. If there's a specific point you want me to elaborate on, please feel free to ask! I'd be glad to ramble.
