Dad Hood - part 9

‘OH GOD, JASON IS GOING TO KILL ME!’

Nightwing was grappling all over the city. He was looking everywhere for Danny. If he had been a normal kid, this was difficult enough, but Danny could fly, and really fast too!

‘Please tell me he didn’t fly all the way to Egypt!’

Why had he’d been so stupid! Of course a 5 year old would wander off! Why didn’t he put a tracker on the kid, that would’ve been so much smarter. As Dick was lamenting his mistakes in his head, his comms turned on and he got a message in the group chat.

‘I just got an alert from Arkham. There has been a breakout, and a few heavy-hitters got out. Be on guard, guys. I’m not sure yet who has and hasn’t escaped.’

This did not ease Dicks worries one bit. Thanking Barbara for the message, he made up his mind. If he hadn’t found Danny within the hour he would alert the other Bats. Even though he had promised Jason he wouldn’t tell anyone about Danny, and Tim blackmailed him, if it came to that he would rather Danny be safe and Jason be angry then Danny be dead and Jason be furious.

After a few more minutes, Dick was almost ready to give up. Right as he grabs his communicator to call in a missing meta, he spots a glow. Dropping down into the alley, he finds Danny.

‘Danny! Thank god I found you!’

‘Hi uncle Dick! I found a kitty, but he won’t come out! Will you help me?’

Danny was hunched over near a crate. Sure enough, a white cat was hiding underneath the crate, hissing up a storm.

‘Danny, I told you not to leave the park! Why didn’t you listen to me?’

Nightwing got closer, putting his hand on Danny’s shoulder. While the gesture was to calm Danny, in truth it was more for Nightwings sake.

‘I’m sorry, uncle Dick. I just wanted to be friends with the kitty…’

Danny looked a bit down. He was obviously feeling guilty for making his uncle worry so much.

‘It’s alright, buddy. Just promise me you won’t run off again, ok? I don’t want anything to happen to my favorite nephew!’

Suddenly Nightwing heard a voice behind him, the last one he wanted to hear at that moment.

‘Your favorite nephew? Well, I’d love to meet the latest Bat-brat!’

Before Nightwing could react, a smoke bomb that smelled very sweet made him fall asleep. In his last moment awake, Dick saw Danny try to shake him awake as the Joker reached out to grab Danny.

When Nightwing wakes up a few hours later, he is momentarily confused. Sitting up, he notices he is in an alley. He tries to remember what happened. He was looking for Danny, who he found in this alley. But then, Joker had appeared. Standing up a bit too quickly, Nightwing looks around. He needs to figure out where Joker took Danny! He needs to-

‘Good morning, uncle Dick! Look! Me and the kitty are friends now!’

Nightwing head turns immediately to the voice. There is Danny, standing next to him, cradling the sleeping cat. The poor thing had also been knocked out by the smoke.

‘Wait, Danny. Why didn’t you fall asleep?’

Dick was confused. Why had the smoke no effect on Danny?

‘Oh! The smoke made my head hurt, so I stopped breathing! Is the smoke the reason why Mrs. Kitty is still sleeping too?’ Danny asked innocently.

Nightwing sighs in relief. His instincts kick back in. Joker might still be around. He immediately picks Danny up and takes him to the roof, but no too far. You never know with Joker, he might’ve strapped a bomb on Danny that would go off after leaving a certain area! After checking Danny over head-to-toe, and after being assured that Danny didn’t eat or drink anything that the mean clown gave him, Nightwing had felt it safe to bring Danny back to the appartement. On the way, Nightwing reported that he had been attacked by the Joker, but that he got away. He didn’t say a word about Danny, but Batman needs to know that Joker is on the loose. As Nightwing climbs back into the window, he asks Danny again just to be certain.

‘Ok Danny, just to be sure. The mean clown didn’t give you anything? No food, no drink, no gifts? Nothing?’

‘No uncle Dick. Even if he had, I wouldn’t have taken it. I hate clowns! They are always mean!’

Grateful that things had ended up fine, Dick didn’t notice the large, red helmeted man standing in the appartement.

‘Dickie, what do you mean by: the mean clown?’

Worth the wait - Ethan x MC fanfic

summary: Ellie knows she shouldn’t... But she sends a text message to Ethan anyway. 

Author’s note: It’s been a long time since Open Heart released chapters. Even longer since I posted an oph fanfic. But it’s nice to get back into it.

Had this one in my drafts for a while, finally finished it. Hope you like it!

Ellie ploped down on her bed after a long day.

Her mind raced, but there was that one thing that lingered in her mind.

She knew she shouldn’t be thinking about it, certainly not now. She had better, bigger things to worry about. Kyra’s surgury, Raf leaving town... Whether June was telling the truth about only sleeping with Tobias and not scheming with him...

But now, that she actually had a moment to herself, her mind went back to that moment.

To the moment Ethan grabbed her and pulled her in for a kiss.

A warm, sheepish feeling spread through her chest as she bit down on her lip.

She knew he did that to cause a divertion, so that the Mass Kenmore employee didn’t suspect they were spying on them, but it didn’t make it any less magical or passionate.

Ellie’s mind wandered to the kiss they shared the other night, when she left Ethan to talk with his father.

It’s been the second kiss so far this year, and she could feel her heart beating hard in her chest the longer she thought about it.

She knew Ethan wasn’t doing this to be unfair towards her.

He didn’t want to jepordize her career, but he probably longed for her as much as she has been longing for him.

But still... She didn’t know what to make of it.

And she knew she should be focusing on other things on hand...

But she simply couldn’t help it.

Before she could stop herself from doing it, she took out her phone and sent out a massage.

A simple ‘Hi’

Not a minute later her phone screen lighted up.

‘How are you?’ Ethan replied.

He probably assumed she wanted a comforting shoulder with everything that’s been going on lately...

But honestly, it wasn’t exactly what she wanted.

Or rather... A shoulder wasn’t enough.

‘I should be going to sleep before my next shift tomorrow.... But I can’t.’ She types. She can see the sign Ethan is typing but she shoots out the next massage before he can say anything.

‘I keep thinking about that kiss.....’

Ethan stops typing.

He doesn’t reply for a while.

Long enough for Ellie to sigh and conclude he probably decided against replying for the sake of her future, like he’s been doing this whole year.

She throws her phone to the other side of her bed, and gets up. She changes into some pajamas, ready to call it a night, trying to force herself to not think about Ethan and get some sleep.

But then her phone chimes in again. She looks at it from the other side of the room.

Ethan names pops up on the screen, and Ellie sighs again.

She shouldn’t be hurrying to the phone like that, but she does.

‘Ellie....’ It’s all it says, at first.

‘I know... I shouldn’t have said that... But I can’t help the way I feel’ She answers.

She doesn’t expect a reply this time.

She rolls her eyes. Why bother answering at all. What use did typing ‘Ellie...’ give him? She can practically hear him, imagining the way her name rolls out on his tongue, the longing and heartbreaking sound of his voice....

Another text brings her back to reality.

‘I’m outside.’

Ellie’s eyes fly open in surprise.

She checks her window, and, without fail, Ethan’s car is parked up front.

Ethan’s out, leaning over it, waiting.

Ellie’s heart races in her chest. What is he doing outside? What if anyone sees him? What are she going to say to him?

She didn’t think she’d get this far when she first sent that text...

But nonetheless, she puts some sneakers on and gets out.

Thankfully, everyone are either on their night shifts or sleeping soundly in their rooms so at least she doesn’t have to sneak out or lie to her roomates.

Even though they all know about her and Ethan... They should probably keep a low profile. And definitely shouldn’t be caught sneaking around in the middle of the night.

After a few minutes she’s out, getting closer and closer towards Ethan.

“Hi.” She finally breathes out, and Ethan watches her carefully.

“... Hi.” He smiles, gently.

“I...” And.... Yep, she hasn’t thought this through.

“I brought dinner.” Ethan saves the conversation.

“Oh?”

“I know it’s nothing fancy or the chicken I promised you the other night... It’s just some mac and cheese... But it’s homemade, not the box kind.” He gestures to a bag near his feet, Ellie hasn’t noticed it up until now.

“Sounds great, actually.” It just now hit her, how long it has been since she last ate. She wonders whether Ethan realized that as well and that’s why he decided to treat her.

“So... Not that I’m that against eating in my car, but...” He motions to the apartment building front door, a question in his eyes.

“Actually, I think I have a better idea.” 

They climb the fire escape staircase, until they hit Ellie’s floor. They have a window exit in their apartment and Ellie has the key, but there’s also enough space for a group to sit there on their floor.

Ellie spreads out a blanket that’s been sitting there from the last time she, Sereena, Jackie and Aurora had their girls night, before inviting Ethan to sit beside her.

Ethan raises an eyebrow. “I’m not sure if I should be more worried that you set this whole thing up with a blanket ready to go, or if you used just a random balnket you found.” He comments but still agrees and sits down next to her.

Ellie chuckles, her lips curling into an amused expression.

“We sometimes hang out here,” She points at the window exit. “But honestly, i’m impressed it’s in such a good condition.”

Ethan chuckles too, before handing her a box and a fork. She opens the box to reveal the promised mac and cheese, the smell making her stomach growl in excitment.

Ethan watches as she takes the first bite, and smiles brightly as she nods approvingly.

“Ohmygod... This is soooo good.” 

He digs in.

After they both finish their meal, Ellie sneaks in and out of the appartment to fetch each of them a bottle of beer.

They lean against the wall, and Ellie siezes the opportunity to lay her head on Ethan’s shoulder, and he wraps his arm around her.

And that moment right there? It what makes her believe they still got this. Even if things aren’t always easy and fun or make sense.

That moment, along with other, small moments, are worth the wait.

The sky night is peaceful and beautiful, and Ellie watches it with awe. She tries to memorise the moment, never wanting it to end.

“Ellie,” Ethan gets her attention.

“Mmm?” She murmurs, but lifts her head and looks at him.

He’s so close right now... She looks into his eyes and feels as if she’s been struck by lightning.

“Ethan...”

“We... Probably shouldn’t.” Here he goes again.

Ellie watches him intently... Her eyes slowly drifting down towards his lips.

She plays along. “We... Definitely shouldn’t.” She licks her lower lip seductively, before looking back up and meeting his intense gaze.

Ethan gulps.

“Dammit, Ellie.”

And they close the distance.

Ellie sees fireworks. It’s amazing how it’s far from their first kiss... Hell, they’ve kissed earlier today, but still, it never loses it’s charm.

Ethan kisses her like he never wants to let go, and she kisses back just as eagerly.

Hands are thrown and curls in each other’s hair, desparate to feel closer to each other, any way possible.

They’re a mess of tangled limbs, as they slide over the blanket Ellie placed earlier. 

They make out until they’re both out of air, and only come up for air.

Ellie’s lying on top of Ethan, and his hands are still holding her close, as they both catch their breath.

“So...” Ethan says nervously.

“We can talk about it later.” Ellie assures him, a genuine smile on her lips.

Ethan nods, copying her smile and pulling her closer, hugging her tightly.

And it’s like they both agree, silently... That it’s worth the wait.

They’re worth the wait.

Marry Me?

Chapter 1- Chapter 2 will be out within the month. I’ll make time to write it in between school, XC, and band. Please come back to finish it. I promise it won’t be much longer

It had been two years since Julietta West Williams had taken out the detectives that Forrest had sent after her and only one year since she had finally disposed of Patti and Forrest himself. There was now no one left who would remember Jule and Imogen’s friendship, or the details of Imogen’s “suicide”. Immie was just another body in the Thames that was soon forgotten about. After laying low for a bit Jule could do whatever she wanted. She cast all her old lives aside, and started a new one using Imogen’s name. The personalities had merged over the years, and it was unclear what parts were Jule’s and what parts were stolen from Immie. It didn’t matter though, because no one would know. She didn’t look anything like the old Jule, and she had never really tried hard to be noticed. The only person who might recognize her was Paolo Vallarta-Bellstone, and last time they spoke, Jule had rejected him.

She pondered over the likeliness of ever seeing him again as she got ready for work in her LA appartement. With Immie’s money Jule would never need to work a day in her life, but she found a job at a local gym where she could work out as much as she wanted for free as an employee. She trained a few people every morning, but she always had the afternoons to herself.

It was a pretty typical Monday morning. Jule walked uptown to her favorite smoothie shop before work. “Your usual miss?” The cashier inquired.

“Of course Sam. It’s never going to change.” Jule smiled. Five minutes later she was handed a peanut butter-banana smoothie and an everything bagel with cream cheese. She ate her breakfast as she continued her walk to work. Once there, she received the usual greeting from Harry the pool boy who was always flirting with her.

“Heey Imogen. Watcha got there?”

“The same thing I always have Harry.” sighed Jule.

“So absolutely nothing different?”

“Well,” Jule began. “I did pick up an attraction to a scrawny pool boy…” She watched Harry’s smile grow. “But,” she shrugged “Mrs. Scott tackled me and took it away.” Harry frowned as he saw old Mrs. Scott approaching him with a hopeful look. Jule left before he could run after her.

After a long day Jule went home and hopped in the shower. She had a plethora of expensive creams and washes to use, courtesy of Imogen’s money. She got out of the shower feeling refreshed and decided to treat herself to an expensive dinner that night. She threw on a dark blue sheath dress which contrasted nicely with her pale skin, and a pain of black heels which were actually her size, unlike the ones she took form Lita. Her hair was done up in a top knot and she did her usual glamorous makeup with winged liner, mascara, contour and highlight. Once she deemed herself acceptable she called an uber and drove downtown to Cicada for Italian food.

Jule was seated quickly at a table for two and watched the couples around her while waiting for her server. She was sucked into an argument a couple was having about their house  and was startled out of her daze when the waiter came over. “May I start you off with something to drink Miss? We have a very fine list of wines.”

“Oh, water will be fine thank you.” The waiter returned quickly with a pitcher and glass to take Jule’s order.

“I’ll start off with the seared scallop, please.” Jule said. “And also the mixed green salad.” Jule was still debating her entree order when the waiter returned. She didn’t even hear him approach because she was too busy staring at the pictures of the veal and risotto.

“Miss?” Jule jerked her head up and saw… him. Behind the waiter. In a caramel suit jacket and white shirt, laughing with some, some girl!

“I, I, I’ll just have the tiramisu please.” Jule sputtered. She just wanted to leave as soon as possible.

“Okay. That will be right out Miss.”

“Thank you.” Jule replied weakly. He was here. Paolo Vallarta-Bellstone was in her city, in the very restaurant she was. Her mind and heart were telling her two different things. Her heart was remembering those few wonderful hours she had spent with Paolo, and urging her to run to him. But her mind was warning her that her might try to find more information on her- Imogen Sokoloff. Her tiramisu arrived and she dug into it with vigor while her body warred. She called the waiter over and asked for the bill. Her returned with her check after dropping one off with Paolo and his date. They paid, and stood to leave. Jule followed, her heart finally winning the argument. She watched Paolo and mystery girl walk down the street holding hands and followed them into a nightclub. This could backfire, but she had nothing to lose. Jule could always dispose of Paolo if he got nosy.

Jule watched Paolo and his date head to the bar and sit down. She followed shortly after and ordered a drink. The barman approached Paolo a few minutes later. “Excuse me sir, that woman down there bought you this drink.” He pointed to Jule. The other girl’s face fell, but Paolo’s lit up.

“Imogen!” He rushed towards her down the bar, encasing her in a crushing hug. “It’s been so long. I’ve missed you Immie. Is it okay if I call you Immie?”

“Hi Paolo. Yes, you can call me Immie. And it’s only been two years since we saw each other.”

“Yeah, two years since you cut all ties with me.” He frowned.

“I know.” Jule sighed. “I was just in a bad place, and I didn’t want you caught up in it.”

“But you’re good now?” He asked, looking hopeful.

“Yup, free as a bird and right as rain.” She smiled up at him.

“Do you think, we could, I don’t know. Get together tomorrow night? Not in that way.” He added hurriedly. “Just a date?”

“I’d really like that.” replied Jule. “But what about your friend over there?”

“Her? Just a first date Imogen. Not as important as you. I should probably go break things off with her.” He kissed Jule quickly on the cheek before wandering back down the bar to his clearly agitated date.

Jule still couldn’t believe her luck the next morning. She had money, no chance of being caught, and could finally be with Paolo. She was living the dream. Her day flew by and before she knew it she was getting ready for her date. Paolo had texted her to dress casually, so she threw on some jean shorts, sandals, and a blouse with her “college girl” makeup. She grabbed her purse and practically ran out the door.

“Hey you!” called Paolo as Jule neared him in the park where they decided to meet.

“Hi!” smiled Jule as she walked up to him. Paolo reached out his hand and Jule laced their fingers together. They began to walk through the park and catch up.

“So what have you been up to Immie?”

“Oh you know, this and that. Travelling, finding myself, taking care of a few loose ends.” She smiled to herself thinking of Forrest and his detectives. “You?”

“Just waiting to find you again.”

“Oh come on.” Jule slapped him playfully. “A man exciting as you must have been doing something interesting.”

“Well, you know I travelled around too. I stayed in some places and found work, but could never really get comfortable. There was something missing.” He brought their hands to his mouth and kissed Jule’s knuckles. “I need to know something.” He said, suddenly serious. “Did you ever think of me Imogen, or was I just someone who asked you out once and didn’t deliver?”

“Paolo, is this about the sheep still?”

“I will never forget the sheep Imogen. And you avoided my question.” Jule sighed.

“No, I really liked you Paolo, I just wasn’t ready for a relationship then. But I am now. I want this, I want you.” Paolo seemed relieved to hear this and started swinging their arms between them.

“Well I’m glad to hear that because I’ve wanted this since Martha’s Vineyard. So are you ready for this amazing date?”

“I’ve never been more ready for anything.”

SEVENTEEN on a cute date with their s/o

A/N I do not own any of the gifs and to the requester if this wasn’t what you meant you can of course request again. (Request)

S.Coups

You were watching some old baby videos of you and your other siblings. he was supposed to be at practise, so he scared you when he said a  long “Aaaww.” at the tv where you were petting a dog. You  quickly tried to turn off the tv, because of embarrassment. “No wait you looked so adorable.” He said while taking the remote to himself. “I looked cute, what about now then” You pouted “How do you manage to get cuter every day?” He comforted you while making himself comfortable next to you.

Jeonghan

You were sad and not in the best mood. The rooftop of your appartment was your safe place and Jeonghan knew that. “hey Y/n how are you?” “not so good, but i will survive.” “Okay wait there.” then he hang up. In 20 minutes the door to the rooftop opened and Jeonghan came in (well out but like u know what i mean) with a couple of blankets, some snacks and a speaker. so thats how you spend your night with him, eating and listening to your favourite music. “You know that when ever you feel down you can come and talk to me even if my schedule is pretty full I always have time for you.” You took you closer to him and started singing with the music.

Imagine being seungkwan

Joshua

“Hurry up.” you yelled at Joshua exitingly. He ran over to you and put his hand around your waist. “What do you want to see first? No wait lets go here.” you dragged him along the museum you had been wanting to visit for a long time. there were couple of tourists and some of them seemed to know him, but they didn’t bother you guys.”Look, thats us in 40 years.” Joshua said while pointing at a old couple. you looked up to him and smiled. “i hope so.”The day went quickly by and now you guys were watching a the sunset out of a really big window “Why did we come to a art museum when the only art i look at is you?” He whispered just loud enough for you to hear. You hit him playfully, but he just gave you a backhug.

Jun

Jun was driving you guys somewhere for your birthday. He had put a bandana over your eyes so you wouldn’t see where you are going. “Can you atleast give me a hint where we are going?” “No, it wouldn’t be a suprise then.” He awnsered,He stopped after some timeand you could hear screaming and a lot of people. He finally took the bandana off to reveal that you went to your favourate bands concert.(favourate after seventeen lets be real) he got you to backstage so people wouldn’t recognise you two. After the concert you got to meet them and talk to them for a while. “What did i do in my past life to deserve you?” you asked him after you got into the car again. “Hey thats my line.” he said while being playfully hurt.

Hoshi

“Will you come soon?” “Are you getting jealous of the mirror?” “Why would i be jealous of a mirror?” you lied, he had been practising and you were getting lowkey jelaous of the mirror he was dancing in front of. it was getting more attention than you so it was reasonable. “Okay I can go alone to OUR date then.” You announced.”Oh no you’re not” “come on help me do this one part pretty please.” He continued. “Okay once.” once meant you two just being dorks for couple of hours.When you both were out of breath because you laughed so much he uttered “This was nicer than going to a fancy reastaurant am i right?” “wait did you cancel the reservation?” “Oh sh..” was all you managed to hear before he was out of the room trying to find his phone. “This idiot.” You laughed by yourself.

Wonwoo

Your doorbell rang. it was wonwoo. “What are you doing here?” “Put your shoes on were going to the movies.” he announced happily. This was a little extempore, but you weren’t complaining. When you got into his car you asked what movie you were going to go see. “I’m not sure yet maybe a scary movie that i can protects you from the bad guys during the movie.” “I’m probably going to be the one protecting lets be honest.” you teased. as he promiced you went to see a scary movie, but he didn’t even pay atenttion to it, since he was too busy protecting you and looking at your pretty face.

Woozi

He was at the studio making new music. You let him do his thing alone, but you would sometimes go keep him company. It was normal for you guys to talk on the phone for a long time, so you weren’t suprised when you saw his name pop up on your phone screen. “Hey jagiya can you come at the studio, I need you opinion on this.” You were already putting your shoes on when he said those words. It was starting to be dark when you arrived to the studio. You opened the door after knoking couple of times. He was on the floor with food and one candle lit. “I haven’t spend much time with you lately so I wanted to have a date with you.” he explained when you came over to hug him.

DK

You guys were walking through some random amusementpark. “Are you okay?” he asked and took his hand from around your waist to your hand. “Yeah. I just probably ate too much…and i shouldn’t eat so i wouldn’t get fatter and yeah.” You muttered quietly that last part, but he still managed to hear it. “Whaaat? nononono!” he said while stepping infront of you. Do you know why I like you so much?” he paused for a secend but continued before you could awnser ”Because you are perfect in my eyes, I don’t need a model, or and actor, or a Singer because i want you.” He said now hugging you you just smiled. “So let’s get some cottoncandy shall we?” he said with a smirk on his face.

Mingyu

“Oh shit I’m so late” you noticed and started running faster. He said to meet him at the park at 5:00 but the clock was starting to near 6:15. When you got there he was nowhere to be seen. “Where did you go?” you asked under your breath. You pulled your phone out of the back pocked of your jeans, but remembered it had ran out of battery. “Y/n I’m so so sorry how long have you waited?” Mingyu came from behind you really out of breath. “I just came.” You chuckeld knowing that both of you were very late, and he realised it too. “Maybe we should just go home and have a movie night? It’s starting to be cold.” he suggested and you agreed.

The8

You were stessing about school an were just in a bad mood in general, so Minghao trying to talk to you about something random wasn’t helping. “Can you shut up?” You finally yelled after having enough. “Ooohhh she mad.” he laughed “What about we go on a date? you can choose.” your eyes light up when you heard the word date. “Okay can we go to the new restaurant?” “Sure.” There were only couple people there since it was sunday and guite late. “are you happy now?”  “Mmmh” you awnsered mouth still full on food “ You are so cute!” he stated.

Seungkwan

You were just walking home from school/work when your phone rang. It was Seungkwan “Hey boo.” you awnsered it quickly. “You. Me. Date. At 7pm. The dorm.” Seungkwan said and ended the call. “Why at the dorm? Aren’t the others supposed to be there?” You asked yourself, but thought they maybe somewhere else. The clock was nearing 7 when you arrived at their dorm. He opened the door before you could even knok. The smell of food hit your face. “Did you cook?” You asked suprised while you were taking your shoes off. “Well…” he hesitated when you were walking to the kitchen. Your eyes wandered upon the trash can which was full of takeout packages. You chuckled a little “It’s good enough all I need is you.” your statement made him smile.

Vernon

“I’m bored” you whined at Vernon who was half asleep on the sofa. “Do you want to do something then?” He asked clearly something on his mind. “Well it’s 2am so I don’t think we can do basicly anything.” you sighned. “Are you sure?” Vernon was now up from the sofa and putting his shoes on. You did that too and followed him into the dark outside. There were couple stores still open so you went to buy snacks and decided to go eat them at the beach. When you were done laughing and just talking about your future together the sun was already starting to rise. “This wasn’t so bad after all.” you thought to yourself.

Dino

You were getting ready for your first date with Chan. He had finally found the courage to confess to you. You guys agreed to meet at this cat coffee house. He was there before you. You guys went in and played with some cats and drank your drinks. This one older cat crawled inot his lap and started to purr “I think he likes me.” He said while petting it. You sneezed and thought ”Maybe i’m allergic to cats.” Apparently you said that outloud since he started laughing.

March 31, 2018

I HAVE A TAN OMG! Yep, I now do. I have now been in Greece for the past couple of days and that should explain why I haven’t writen in a little while. Every night I would go back to my room late and then think to myself that I would write the next day. I don’t really feel bad though simple because I’m on vacation and I should be able to feel like I can do whatever, whenever I feel like it. So, let’s catch you up on all the incredible things that have happened to me.

Getting to London on Monday went well. It’s never ideal to take a night bus to somewhere and be stuck on there for more than 8 hours but it still went ok. I took an Uber to get to the bus station and then went on the bus. I got lucky enough not to have to share a seat (I would pretend that I would sleep so people would sit farther). I slept ok. I mean it’s never the best sleep but I think I can sleep quite well on a bus. Once in London on Tuesday morning, I took another bus and finally got to my mom at the airport. It felt weird but also extremly familiar which was nice. We both fell into old habits quite fast.

After waiting around at the airport, catching up and sharing breakfast, we took a bus to get from one airport to the other. Then, we got some food at that airport for lunch and diner and then we took an Uber to get to our accomodation for the night. It was the cutest thing ever. We were in some kind of garage but all made up and it was perfect. We were also in the cutest little village. We went out to buy something to drink and an ice cream sandwich. Then for the rest of the evening, we took it easy, just enjoying each other’s company after 3 months appart and watching tv shows and talking to people we know. It was a great.

At 2am on Wednesday we woke up, got ready and tried to get an Uber. We were too early and too far so we had to try about 10 different numbers before getting a taxi to pick us up. I was started to stress by then but everything turned out just fine. We got to the airport, got breakfast, slept all the way here on the plane and finally landed IN GREECE.

This whole thing felt completely crazy. After that, we had to wait to get the car since the one we were supposed to get had just been into an accident and eventually we got it and left. We laughed the whole way here because roads are crazy. I would never drive here, my mom is pretty courageous. We finally got here and settled. We only went to the grocery store and then we called it a day. We made diner here and just enjoyed the crazy view and planned what we would do with out week. It was another great evening.

On Thursday, we finally went exploring. We went to Palaiokastrista where we saw a castle, got lost, enjoyed lunch outside and sat on a beach. It was a great day of wandering. We got back here quite early and ended up making diner here once again. It was so surreal and we’d finally gotten somewhat used to the roads so the hours of driving didn’t matter. It was an amazing first day around here. We took it easy in the evening watching tv shows and just being with each other.

On Friday, we decided to go to Corfu town. Parking there was quite stressful but then we walked around all day and it was amazing. The town is super cute. We saw the Old fortress and just looked around. We had souvlaki for lunch which were amazing and then gelato for dessert. We eventually drove back here because my mom’s knee was getting weak and we felt like we’d seen most of what was to see.

After getting back here, we hung out before going out again. We went to the beach close by. It was sunny so we just sat there, me reading and my mom sleeping on the beach. It was great. After that, we got back to the appartment and made diner. We ate it outside once again and just hung around in the sun. It was crazy warm on the balcony and I got a sun burn. It’s not the worst I’ve ever had but it’s not fun. Eventually we took it easy in my mom’s bed and then we called it a night.

This morning we took it easy. Then we left and got to this beach on the other side. It was mostly rocks though so we decided to drive back a little and get to the sand beaches. Those were amazing. Getting there was quite the challenge but once there we just enjoyed. I got to deep my feet in the ocean, read on a beach chair and just enjoy the sun. It was warm and beautiful and I loved it. Plus, we basically had the whole beach all to ourselves.

Once it was early afternoon, we went for lunch. We got Gyros and it was A.MA.ZING. It was in this cute little restaurant and I loved it. After that we did some grocery shopping and then on the way back here stopped for gelatos. Those ended up coasting way to much (the price was nowhere so we assumed it wouldn’t be too much and then we had to pay and it hurt a little) so we enjoyed them a lot.

After getting back here, peeing and dropping the groceries, we got going again. We went to the Canal d’amour. It looked amazing but it was so windy that we couldn’t stay there. We ended up driving back after taking a few pictures.

Back here, we once again went to the beach near by, read for a little while but it was so windy that we would get sand everywhere. We eventually called it a day and got back here. We read for a little while, both showered and made diner. We ate outside since the balcony was somehow calming the wind and then we took it easy. We read, watched tv shows and now we are about to go to bed.

This whole thing as been crazy but also really fun. I can wait to see what the other half of this trip has in store for us. Should be quite amazing.

Until next time,
