i jus know bran would be nervous as heck talking to you for the first time while having a massive secret crush on you, he doesn’t know where to look because he’s afraid to make eye contact, even though he loves your eyes. jojen,meera, arya, and sansa keep “ooo”-ing whenever the two of you are trying to have a normal conversation bc they all know he swoons over you😭 (it’s super obvious, he’s a big show-off whenever you’re around and perks up everytime he hears someone say your name)
wanna go on a date?
navigation | warnings : none? | a/n : sorry if this is crap, usernames are cringe af sorry abt that, lmk if u want a part 2 :) | bran stark playlist | tags : @knight-of-flowerss @lost-in-fiction-like-ur-mom
Bran couldn't stop staring at your lips.
Was it weird? Maybe a little bit.
Maybe a lot.
Fuck.
Surely you would've noticed by now.
The conversation started when you mentioned to Sansa a video game that you enjoyed playing, and it just so happens that Bran plays that game too (only because you do).
Then you had stopped talking to Sansa and turned to Bran. Your voice didn't reach his ears, he was far too distracted with the thought of what your lips must feel like.
Catelyn had let Jojen and Meera visit, but it seems they were being ignored.
Bran swears he isn't ignoring them, he just likes you so much. So, so much.
"Bran."
He didn't answer.
"Bran. Are you listening?" You eyes flashed with concern. Oh how he could look into them all day long.
"Hm? Oh, yes. Yes, I'm listening." Bran shook all thoughts out of his head, focusing all of his attention on you.
"He's daydreaming about your luscious, red lips." Meera teased, causing a light pink to dust across his cheeks and nose.
"No I'm not." He barely whispered.
Jojen, Meera and Sansa laughed, but instead, you sat with a smile on your face.
You were quite aware of Bran's feelings towards you, and so did everyone else. But they didn't know of your feelings for him.
Bran grew tired of their mockery, sighed and left the room "Just fuck off!"
You had waited for months now. Waiting and waiting for Bran to make a move on you.
And you were sick of waiting.
You got your phone out and pulled up his instagram, clicking message.
y/n.is.tongue.tied :
hey bran! i have a question PLEASE ANSWER😭🙏🏻
literal.3eyed_raven :
is it about [fav video game]? because girl you know i'm shit at it🫠
y/n.is.tongue.tied :
actually i wanted to know if u wanna go on a date?
literal.3eyed_raven :
what
y/n.is.tongue.tied :
a date-
seen
"Oh, my, fucking, god."
"Oi! Language." Ned warned.
"What did I say about phones at the table?" Catelyn held her hand out to take Bran's phone.
"Jon!" Bran shouted to his brother who sat at the end of the dining table.
He looked up, chicken still stuffed in his mouth.
"What do you say when someone asks you on a date?"
Robb laughed loudly, making Jon glare at him out of the corner of his eye. "What are you asking him for? He's never even looked a person in the eye!"
Jon picked up a piece of his food to throw at him, but Robb dodged it.
Arya was quite frankly getting annoyed with her brothers teasing each other, and Bran's unnecessary panic. "Just say yes, it's not that hard."
Bran rolled his eyes. "Of course you wouldn't think it's hard Arya, no one likes to talk to you."
literal.3eyed_raven :
sorry for not answering
yh ofc!
y/n.is.tongue.tied :
do you wanna work out the details tmr?
literal.3eyed_raven :
sure!
y/n.is.tongue.tied :

Your phone slips out of your hand and onto the bed as you flop back onto the mattress. You close your eyes and feel a sappy smile worm its way across your face. Just earlier you'd been hanging out with ringshooter.. Z, sorry, after he'd gotten off of his flight and tomorrow.. well, today actually, you'll be meeting the boys™.
You've been spamming Z whenever you get mildly nervous.. which is every 2 seconds it seems. It's not like you can help it though, he just has that calming effect on you, some may find his blasé attitude careless but to you it's freeing.
As the minutes tick by and the early hours pass into what some may coin as reasonable you finally drift off to sleep, your slumber that is much too quickly ended by your dozens of alarms going off.
Look, no judgement, you've just been known to sleep through your alarms before so 10+ alarms confirms whether your dead to world or waking up on time.
With a groan you pat around your bedside table until your hand land on your phone and you turn of your alarm. You drag yourself up into a sitting position and go through all the other alarms set to follow and turn all of them off too. Somehow you'd only slept through 3 today, must be a miracle.
You quickly skim through your notifications, not-so-secretly hoping to see one from ringshooter Z
✄┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈«
ringshooter: the guys
ringshooter: read: t and tae
ringshooter: have decided we absolutely have to go bowling today
ringshooter: that alright with you???
✄┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈«
You smiled as you found the notification and opened up your chat; you read through every word before shooting back a text of your own
✄┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈«
not_interested: no problems with that
not_interested: i know a place that does some really good food as well
not_interested: btw we doing those like side bumper things or no ??
ringshooter: sounds good
ringshooter: just send me the location and we'll meet you there
ringshooter: robaire insists on using those side thingies (wtf are they called???) so yh we are
not_interested: sweetness
not_interested: sending location now
not_interested: see ya
ringshooter: 👍🏾

You resist the urge to squeal and kick your legs like a a pre-teen in one of those rubbish coming of age movies.
Now that you know the plan and you have an incentive to get up and seize the day, you find it much less of a struggle to leave you bed so you can wash up, get dressed and have a bite to eat before you leave.
You decide to walk to the bowling alley because it's more environmentally friendly and, more importantly, you're too broke to get public transport.
It takes longer than you'd anticipated but once you're finally at the bowling alley you open up you chat with Z
✄┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈«
not_interested: im here, meet me outside
✄┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈«
It only takes a couple of second for your phone to light up with the notification of a new message from ringshooter.
✄┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈«
ringshooter: i can see you 👀
not_interested: okay weirdo get over here so i can beat your ass at bowling
ringshooter: i think you'll find im the one will be winning today lmao
not_interested: dream on loser
✄┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈«
You thank whatever higher being warned you of your online friend's celebrity status and his celebrity friends before this because as you watch them walk towards you, you find yourself growing more and more intimidated. It's so weird being the center of 5 objectively attractive men's attentions, how the fuck no one's died from skyrocketing blood pressure at their concerts you will never know.
With a quick mental cleanse you rid yourself of any thoughts of their celebrity-ness, they came here to hang out and be normal people and so help you God you will not ruin this for them!
A widening grin makes its way onto your face as lock eyes with Z, "Hey, tiny."
You immeditaly puff up at the nickname, "I am not tiny, you're just an obscenely tall motherfucker!"
"Our point exactly!" Two voices chorus from behind Z, the owner of the louder of the two voices, bounds over to you, "I'm T, that's Tae and you are going to be our new favourite."
Tae nods and practically skips over, "Just because we're not 7 fucking feet tall doesn't mean we're short, but some people seem to forget that due to being taller than Mount fucking Everest! Glad to finally meet someone who's simply correct."
T looks likes a broken bobblehead simply from the force of his nods, "Robaire's not even that much taller than us, maybe like a couple inches, so the short jokes are just low hanging fruit at this point, not a pun!"
You smile brightly at both of them, "Nice to meet you both, I have a feeling we'll become great allies!"
The other tall one, who, by process of elimination is probably Jesse, speaks up, "Okay, enough squabbling, how about we go inside before we get stared at even more."
Robaire nods, "Agreed, plus I would kill for a bowling alley slushie right now."
You eyes narrow as you turn to him, "What flavour?"
He looks at you in return, he's eyes narrowing as well, "The only correct flavour there is, the blue one."
You straighten up and nod approvingly before turning to Z, "Looks like I've found a better partner in crime, someone who knows their bowling alley slushies and doesn't choose the red one over the blue one."
T gasps dramatically making you laugh, "I can't believe you said the red one over the blue one, everyone knows you have to get blue because it changes your tongue to blue."
Z rolls his eyes, "Who cares about omgue colour if it doesn't taste as good as the red one."
This time you gasp dramatically, one of hands flying to forehead in shock, "I can't believe you just said that! The blue one is way better tasting than the red one!"
Jesse sighs, "You guys are worse than my kids."
Tae smiles dangerously, "You're only saying that because you secretly like the red one more."
T turned to Jesse with a look of betrayal plastered across his face, "Is it true? Have you truly gone to the dark side!?"
Jesse scoffs, "I'd hardly call liking the red one over the blue one going to the dark side."
T fake sobs into your shoulder, "He does! He's betrayed us!" You pat T on the arm comfortingly, "It's alright, just because they don't understand doesn't change the fact that most people prefer the blue one."
Robaire sniffs, "Betrayed by my very own friends, whatever did I do to deserve this heartbreak."
Z groans, "What the fuck is this, man.."
T stares at Tae accusingly, "So, are you team blue or team red?"
Tae smiles innocently and replies, "I hate slushies!"
He then skips off into the bowling place leaving the rest of the group in shock..
"WHAT!?"
..
"Do they have actual favours or are they just the blue one and the red one?"

isn’t it obvious i’m a wreck | shawn mendes
university au, shawn x goth gf
AN: fun fact the song this fic is named after has the same name as one of shawns songs :P anyway, this one is a bit angsty, and continued from no medicine is strong enough so yh if u like this series blease let me know and blease feel free to reblog the masterlist :’)
masterlist | series playlist
Only rarely was I ever vocal about my pain. Go ahead, pretend to be shocked. I mask my hurt, angry, upset feelings with mannerisms and behaviors my therapist wouldn’t necessarily approve of. I’d clear my throat to keep from crying hysterically. I’d play video games on the couch to avoid thinking about whatever is shaking my world at the moment. I’d fuck my boyfriend to avoid talking about my feelings sometimes, I’ll admit it.
But this… This was something I could not put on a front for, even if I wanted to. I really did not want to put on a mask. Shawn had to see what was happening to me, he had to know what he created inside me. My knees went weak and I was on the floor in his bedroom, heavy tears welling in my eyes. Something like a scream erupted out of me, followed by several loud, uncontrollable sobbing. He didn’t even finish his anecdote before I pieced it together.
My insides went cold as ice but hot as lava at the same time. I felt like I was physically falling apart, like my limbs were going to come off, like my surgery stitches were going to pop, like my heart was going to fall out of my chest if I didn’t hold myself. I hunched over, my forehead hitting the carpet as I cried louder.
“I’m… so sorry,” Shawn mumbled from where he sat on the bed.
“No you’re not!” I yelled at him as I sat up, my voice shaky and incoherent. “You could have done… you could have done so many other things before… before…”
“I know…”
“No you don’t! If you knew you wouldn’t have done anything! If you knew, you could have just broken up with me instead of betray me!” Angry tears streamed down my face, blackened by my mascara. I looked as crazy as I felt, as crazy as I just became. “Who was she? Do you love her?”
“No!” Shawn replied, looking at the floor. He had a pained expression on his face. Pain he only brought to himself. “It was just a stupid mistake, I was-” He sighed.
“What?! Say it!”
He got to his feet, looking down at me. “I was mad, okay? I was angry because you refuse to tell me anything! Ever since you left the hospital, you’ve shut me out! You make it so hard for me to even look at you! You make it so hard for me to love you! You’re so difficult to deal with, it’s like you want me to leave!”
My hand went to my stomach, where I was cut open not that long ago. I could feel the thick, bumpy surgery scar under my shirt. I was practically botched, cut open like a pig at a slaughterhouse. It messed with my head for a bit, and I needed even more therapy for it. I have mild trauma from my time in the hospital and it gives Shawn an excuse to cheat on me? Where is the logic in that?
“You made the decision to go out, hit up some random girl, go home with her… and it’s my fucking fault!?” I screamed, standing up once again. No more tears, I actually wanted to punch him. “You betray me, you hurt me…” Okay, more tears. “You throw away everything we have, after it took so long for me trust you, and it’s my fault?”
It’s my fault! It’s my fault! Everything is my fault!
Shawn made big strides towards me, and he grabbed my arm. He was saying something to me, but I was crying so much it made my stomach hurt. His voice was gentle now, and he was shaking me slightly. I tried to yank myself away, how dare he touch me… His hands have been on someone else’s skin. How could he touch me?
“Honey…”
I closed my eyes and shook my head, not wanting to hear the nickname he gave to everybody. He probably gave her the same nickname. It made me feel incredibly sick, I actually wanted to vomit.
“Hey there, little fighter…”
My eyes opened again, only slightly. It was hard to keep my eyes from squinting, because it was suddenly very bright in the room. I also felt wildly sleepy, like I could slip into a permanent coma at any moment. I couldn’t process any of my surroundings, the only thing I was sure of was that I was sitting on a bed, lying at an angle, and someone was holding my right hand and grabbing my left arm.
After blinking a few times, I looked to my left and saw a blonde lady in green scrubs standing next to me. She had thick black frames on and a pen in her bun. She was poking at a machine next to my bed until she realized I was staring at her with a stupid look on my face.
“Hi there, how ya feeling?” she asked, smiling at me like I was toddler.
“Sad,” I replied in a whisper. My throat was incredibly dry. I coughed once. “I think my boyfriend cheated on me.”
“That boyfriend?” the lady asked, pointing across the bed.
I turned my head the other way, finding Shawn sitting at my bedside. He was holding my hand and looking at me like it was fucking Christmas or something.
“You’re too pretty to cheat,” I mumbled. “Only ugly men cheat.”
He chuckled, though his brow furrowed in mild confusion.
“I feel sick,” I announced. “My boyfriend cheated and I feel sick.”
The blonde lady nurse person quickly grabbed a silver bowl from a table that appeared out of nowhere, and she held it for me as I puked in it. She reassured Shawn that that was normal, it was just the anesthesia. Oh yeah, I had surgery.
I fell asleep after that. When I woke up again, the blonde lady was gone, but Shawn was still holding my hand. Now, I knew that was Shawn Mendes, the popular singing guy from the college I went to. I knew that I knew him on some level. But I just stared at him with groggy eyes while he scrolled on his phone with his free hand.
“You’re pretty,” I mumbled. “Are you single?”
He eyes flickered up to me, and a the corners of his mouth went up. “Huh?”
“Are you here with anyone?” I asked.
“Uh, my mom should be coming soon. Stella just left, though.”
“No, like, do you have a date or something? You taken? You’re so cute…”
“Yeah, I’m taken. By you. I’m your boyfriend.”
My eyes widened for the first time. That statement shocked me so much I fell back asleep.
~
Several things kept me awake in the days after my surgery. For one thing, a nurse came in every hour to check my vitals and my incision site, even at night. I heard Shawn singing to himself whenever I tried to nap. I was pretty sure either his mom, Stella, or both were talking in the room. I felt like I was either balls deep in a coma, or balls deep in insomnia.
Anyway, the surgery was successful. Part of my bowel was removed, and I had to be kept on a liquid diet for a while. I still had a fever that made me slightly delirious. It was like the morphine except my body wasn’t numb. Shawn was quite entertained by my delusions, because I talked way too much about things I normally wouldn’t talk about.
“Don’t tell anyone,” I said to him on day four of fever dreams, “but you’re my favorite person ever, and I’m so lucky to have you.”
He was leaning on the bed, elbows on the thin, lumpy mattress. He was smiling so wide you almost couldn’t notice the bags under his eyes. “Well, you’re my favorite person too, and I’ll tell anyone who will listen.”
“Must be nice to not be scared of your feelings.” I looked at his arm, the one with all the tattoos. Then, I looked at his face. “God, you make me so-”
“So what?” He took my hand in his, and he rubbed my fingers with his thumb. He had a hopeful look in his eyes, like I was going to confess my love for the very first time.
Before my lagging brain could say anything more, a nurse entered the room. Older lady with short grey hair, very smiley. I wasn’t sure what time of the day it was, time didn’t exist in these walls. Maybe it was early, since she was so smiley. Most nurses at night were cranky and sleepy.
“Morning, you two,” she said, walking over to check my vitals on the machines. “You feeling okay, sweetie?”
“I’m good,” I said. “My cut feels warm, though.”
That warm feeling turned out to be a surgical site infection. It was hot, it was red, it was the cause of my fever, and best of all, it smelled and secreted some nasty shit. Needless to say, my hospital stay extended five more days. I had to convince Shawn to go back to work. One of us had to stay busy. He always came back to sleep at the hospital so I wasn't alone.
In other news, I was excused and given full credit for my English final, thank god. No prior studying had been done on my part, so I got lucky. As for research methods, I just had to email my final essay to my professor. Academically, I didn’t have to stress anymore. Living wise, Stella was constantly texting me about which of my belongings should go in which boxes, and where I got my textbooks from because none of them were from the campus bookstore. I had to make Shawn go to campus to help her.
By the time I was properly discharged, all of my things were moved into Shawn’s apartment, and my car was in the parking lot. We stumbled through the front door only to see several boxes lined up on the floor along the wall. I was leaning on Shawn for support, but the hallway was now too crowded for two people.
“Fuck,” Shawn cursed under his breath. “Here, let’s do it this way.”
He moved so he was standing in front of me, and he took both of my hands. Slowly, but surely. I stumbled my way through the hallway, careful not to disturbed the five tiny but deep cuts on my belly. They were still numb from the Vicodin I was given, so it was only a matter of time before the pain kicked in.
“You wanna go to the bed or the couch?” he asked, frequently looking behind himself so as to not trip on anything.
“Couch,” I said, “I wanna watch TV.”
“Alright, here we go.”
Who knew getting to the couch would be so exhausting? I was sat on the soft white cushion in minutes, completely winded. Shawn handed me the remote and smiled.
“Need anything?”
I shook my head.
“Okay. I’m gonna go move those boxes. Let me know if you need anything.”
What I needed was to be useful. Those were my boxes, my belongings. I had to be responsible for them. But no, one wrong move, and I’ll bleed out on Shawn’s white couch.
I couldn’t even lift my legs up and lie down on my side, or reach the handle to recline the seat without straining myself. I could only listen to Shawn move things around, and I could only stare out the massive windows. I had successfully turned into a couch potato in less than five minutes.
Eventually, I settled for watching gaming videos on YouTube. I fell down the rabbit hole that is Legend of Zelda theories. I had nothing else to do, anyway.
Then, my phone went off next to me. I looked at the screen, reading the name of the alarm I had set. It went off every day for the last few months, but weirdly enough I didn't remember it going off while I was in the hospital. Then again, drugs and fever dreams.
The sight of my medication alarm made me gasp softly. I had to get off my birth control and Prozac. Lack of birth control was fine, it just meant that my period would remain irregular. Besides, it’s not like I was having sex at all, not that that’s the reason why I take birth control. Lack of antidepressants would have been bad had I not been on morphine and Vicodin to keep me loopy.
“Babe, can you find me my meds?" I called.
Within minutes, Shawn came over to where I was sitting with the orange bottle and foiled packaging in his hand. He set them down on the coffee table, and then I had to ask him to recline my seat for me. I felt dainty and needy, and not in a good way.
The last of the hospital’s drugs wore off by the time Shawn and I went to bed. The physical act of getting to bed was more strenuous, now that there was nothing numbing me. I had a moderately high pain tolerance, but this shit was enough to keep me awake. I dozed off for minutes at at time before waking up again. Meanwhile, Shawn had knocked out the second his head hit the pillow. He had been moving my boxes into the spare room/his recording studio all day, and he had been running around getting me to the bathroom and walking me around the apartment so I didn’t turn into a full on potato. On top of that, he hadn’t slept much while I was at the hospital. He needed it more than me.
When sleep finally came to me, Shawn took my hand from under the sheets. I was too tired to squeeze it, let him know I was there.
~
I was up and running in the afternoon. Shawn had to work until the evening, so his mom came and stayed with me. Yes, I internally freaked out. Yes, I spoke to her while I was admitted, but I wasn't alone with her until now.
Karen was more persistent about getting me to my feet, so she took me on walks up and down the hallway of the floor this apartment was on. I felt winded every time, but I knew I needed it.
“So, when are your parents coming?” she asked, not for the first time.
“In the next couple of days,” I replied between huffs of breath. “They got my texts this morning, they’re working on flying over here.”
“Okay, good. I can’t wait to meet them.”
I feigned a smile. While I did miss my mom and dad, I was very nervous about their arrival. Not only was this going to be a belated hospital visit, this was also the first time they would be meeting Shawn and his family. Lowkey, I wanted to die. Lowkey, I’d rather be under the scalpel again.
Karen and I talked some more as we strolled through the corridor. I was able to finally tell her things about me that didn’t have to do with my illness. I told her about my goal of getting my Bachelors in psychology, and how much I loved my dealership job. You know, things your boyfriend’s mom would like to hear.
“Do you plan on staying in Toronto when you finish college?” she asked.
“I haven’t fully decided yet,” I said, “but it’s not off the table.”
“I imagine you’d like to keep living with Shawn if you stay.”
For once, I hesitated. It made me nervous. Was I supposed to be outwardly obsessed with her son, say I’d love nothing more than to be at his side all the time? I didn’t know how to sugar coat serious things like that, so I decided to be honest.
“Maybe. I mean, I’m only here because I had surgery and can’t travel.” I’m supposed to be home. “The only plan I have is to work in my field of study until I can open my own practice, wherever that may be. But I do love it here in Toronto, and I… I love Shawn.”
His mother was looking ahead as we walked, but she smiled at my sentiment. She was quiet, though, which prompted me to keep rambling.
“Like, if he and I are still together when we graduate, then yeah, we could live together. Properly, y’know, not while I’m recovering from surgery.”
Karen nodded in approval. “You’re realistic. That’s good. It’s good for him as well.”
I internally relaxed. Finally, a rational mom.
“You know Shawn is happy with you, right?” she said to me. “I’m sure he tells you, but I think you need to hear it from someone outside the relationship.”
“Really?” I asked. I felt a hint of doubt in my mind, but I wasn’t sure why. Karen was right, Shawn did tell me all his thoughts and feelings all the time. I just had the smallest feeling that maybe I was being lied to.
“Oh yes. The day he took you out on a first date, he told me… ‘Mum, I have a really good feeling about her. I haven’t felt this way about anyone before.’ He was over the moon, and he still is.”
My cold ass heart jumped for joy. I let myself believe I wasn’t being lied to.
~
Karen had to leave about an hour before Shawn was off his shift, meaning I had to be a couch potato for that long. It wasn’t a problem as long as I didn’t have to use the bathroom, and not much was getting into my system these days. After the liquid diet from the hospital, I was put on a “soft” diet. Most of what I ate was bananas, applesauce, and white rice. Oh, and soup. So much soup. Neither Shawn nor I cooked, so he always brought me soup or pasta from a shop downtown.
Shawn had decided to eat soft foods with me so I wouldn’t feel alone. But I knew he was most likely devouring whatever fast food was nearby his flower shop. I knew because I would probably do the same damn thing.
“Okay, they were out of chicken noodle,” he called as he entered the apartment, “but they had broccoli and cheddar, I know you like that!”
He made it to the couch, sat next to me, and kissed me on the cheek. Then, he set the brown paper bag down on the coffee table. He carefully took out the large styrofoam cup, but paused when he saw what I had on the TV.
“Thought you would have had enough of hospitals by now,” he commented, his chipper mood suddenly turned.
I shrugged. “Grey’s is comforting.”
Shawn sat back with my soup and handed it to me. “Can we watch something else?”
“Aw, don’t you wanna watch Lexie kick the can again?” I joked, giggling.
For whatever reason, he wasn’t amused. “Please. Change it.”
My laughter immediately died down. Then, I grabbed the remote and switched to The Office. “Sorry.”
Shawn had been hovering ever since I was admitted to the hospital. He frequently asked how my incisions were doing, if I felt faint, or if I needed anything at all. His hand was on my forehead more than it was sweetly cupping my cheek. He stayed by my side every minute. The only other thing he did was work at the flower shop. I wasn’t even sure if he had met up with Teddy for songwriting lately.
“How was work?” I asked him, nudging his side.
“I’ve seen too many roses today,” he replied, lying his head back on the cushion. “We have so many options, but everyone just wants roses. Or daisies.”
“Thought you liked roses.”
“Yeah, but when you see as many flowers as I do... “
“I wish I could go visit you,” I told him. “I’ve never actually seen where you work.”
“Mm, it’s a small place with a lot of light. Might be too out of your comfort zone.”
I made a face. Confused, but also mildly annoyed. Instead of snapping at him, I remained patient. “Are you okay?”
“I’m fine.” He picked up his head again and looked at me. “I’m just worried about you, my little fighter.”
“Well, I’ll be able to work again in ten days, and I’m on a soup diet. I just can’t travel on a plane or anything yet.” More specifically, I couldn’t go back home. I tried to adjust myself so I could look at Shawn properly, but a certain sting on my abdomen kept me still. “Have you sang lately? Do you have any gigs booked?”
Shawn looked at the TV and shook his head. “I couldn’t go even if I had one. I’ve got a sick girlfriend here, after all.”
Maybe I was already going crazy from the impending cabin fever, but that kinda hurt. A sting of guilt when through my chest. “I’m sorry.”
“Don’t be. It’s not your fault.” He changed the subject. “So, some of my friends are asking about you. They wanna come visit.”
The guilt only increased. Lately, I’ve been a lot more vulnerable than I was comfortable with. I was practically helpless in front of my boyfriend, who had only seen me as strong and independent up until my bowel crapped out on me. This was different territory, and I didn't like it.
“Not while I’m like this,” I said sheepishly. It wasn’t the first time I turned away visitors. I only allowed Shawn, Stella, and Karen to see me at the hospital.
“That’s okay,” Shawn replied. “Whenever you’re ready, you got people.”
Normally he would press the topic. In the earlier stages of our relationship, it was hard to come around to meeting Shawn’s friends. Almost none of them were expecting someone like Shawn to date someone like me. As always, I was my quiet and mysterious self, and it was a little off putting to them. Not to mention, my small reputation of sleeping around had gotten to some of them in the past. It was frowned upon when it was me, but if I recall correctly, my boyfriend used to be the exact same way. However, Shawn always gave me a push to be more engaging and reminded me to give people a chance, but this time he just let me have my way.
I was wide awake that night, and it wasn’t from my surgery pain.
It’s been two days since I was discharged. A week and a half since my surgery. Stella flew home to Florida without saying goodbye, and I was still stuck on not having any other visitors. I didn’t even tell my own friends, like the guys from my video game club. Most of them probably went home for the summer anyway. Now, Shawn was acting weird. Was he mad at me because I was keeping him from his music? Was he upset that I was taking up space in his apartment?
I turned my head to look at his sleeping figure. The moonlight shone in through the window, so I could barely make out the features of his body. For once, he didn’t look tense or stressed. He kept a physical distance from me, though. We couldn’t spoon like normal because I couldn’t lay on my side. Last night he still made the effort to hold my hand. Never had I wanted to turn to him and stroke his curly hair more than I did tonight.
Shawn suddenly twitched in his sleep. Not dramatically, but just enough to catch my attention. He was lying on his front, head facing me. He twitched again, and let out a small noise. It was a monotonous hum, lasted a good five seconds.
Delicately, I placed my hand on his bare shoulder. It was a little awkward because I couldn’t physically turn my body towards him, but I was still able to touch him.
Another groan left his mouth, distressed. Then, he yelped and twitched, now a little more spastic. He gasped and groaned into his pillow, so I gently shook him.
“Hey, hey babes. Wake up,” I said weakly. “Please wake up.”
Shawn woke with one final jerk of his shoulder. Panting, he turned onto his back and placed his hands over his face. “Fuck… Oh, fuck…”
“You’re okay,” I told him, touching his arm. “It’s okay. Just a dream, it’s okay.”
He took my hand and kissed my knuckles, all while trying to control his breath. Then he turned his body towards me. “I love you.” His voice shook in a way that made my heart ache.
I only returned the pressure on his hand, watching his face. It was probably for the best that I couldn’t see the exact expression he had on. I really hated seeing him in distress.
“I need to hear you say it,” he pleaded, holding my hand to his chest. “I need to hear your voice.”
“Shawn-”
“Please...”
“I love you. You know I love you,” I told him gently. “Do… do you wanna talk about what just happened?”
He shook his head. “No. No, I just wanted to hear your voice for a minute. I love you so much.”
That wouldn’t be the only night he would yell in his sleep and wake up shaking. That kept me up more than any surgical pain.

teenage fever
(a little one-shot from my spiderman au )
also, read on ao3.
________________________________________________________________
to: annoying hoe :/
from: resting bitch face ;p
12:50 a.m.
r u up loser?
Three dots appear at the bottom of her screen. They disappear then reappear again. She bites her lip in anticipation. This time he sends his response.
to: resting bitch face ;p
from: annoying hoe :/
12:51 a.m.
yh.
To be honest she doesn’t even know why she texted him in the first place. She’d been feeling weird as of late. Like she actually...cared about things. She shudders at the thought. This is the type of shit Jason does. She snaps out of her thoughts rather quickly when she realizes she hasn’t answered Leo in - she checks the time on her phone - three minutes! She mentally kicks herself for getting so consumed in her thoughts.
to: annoying hoe :/
from: resting bitch face ;p
12:53 a.m.
good.
She takes in a shaky breath as she waits for his answer.
to: resting bitch face ;p
from: annoying hoe :/
12:53 a.m.
is everything ok?
No! She wants to say. No, I’m not okay! She wants to tell somebody - anybody -how she’s feeling, but how does one express how weird they’re feeling to their best friend?
to: annoying hoe :/
from: resting bitch face ;p
12:54 a.m.
yeah
Wrong answer. Now he’s sure to press for answers. What’s even worse is how quickly he responds.
to: resting bitch face ;p
from: annoying hoe :/
12:54 a.m.
ok, now i know something’s wrong. first, u text me at one in the morning and second, u don’t say “yeah”. well, at least like that.
“Fuck,” she curses. Why couldn’t she keep emotions in check like a normal person? And why did she have such an observant best friend?
to: annoying hoe :/
from: resting bitch face ;p
12:55 a.m.
first of all, it’s not “one in the morning” it’s 12:55, second of all i can say “yeah” whenever i want to, third of all i hate u.
Three simple words with a world of meaning but Leo, of course, knows better than to take offense.
to: resting bitch face ;p
from: annoying hoe :/
12:56 a.m.
yh, yh. but seriously...what’s up?
She groans as she queues up Netflix on her computer, knowing full well that Leo’s not going to drop the topic anytime soon. (Again, why did she have such an observant best friend?) She quickly scrolls through the movie options before ultimately deciding on Carrie.
to: annoying hoe :/
from: resting bitch face ;p
12:56 a.m.
fine. what do u want to know?
She starts up the movie, quickly getting wrapped up in it before realizing that Leo’s already answered her.
to: resting bitch face ;p
from: annoying hoe :/
12:57 a.m.
i wanna know why you’ve been acting weird around jason.
She swears her heart stops for a second before beating at an abnormal rate, followed by a horrible fluttery feeling at the pit of her stomach (which seems to happen a lot at the mention of his name).
to: annoying hoe :/
from resting bitch face ;p
1:07 a.m.
how do i act weird around jason?
She thinks long and hard about how she acts around Jason. Nothing so far seemed to spark any oddities. She doesn’t treat him any differently than she does Leo.
to: resting bitch face ;p
from: annoying hoe :/
1:07 a.m.
r u serious?
She scowls. What does he mean by that?
to: annoying hoe :/
from: resting bitch face ;p
1:08 a.m.
deadly. tell me how i act “weird” around jason.
At this point, the movie’s been long forgotten, currently being used as background noise for her highly stressful situation.
to: resting bitch face ;p
from: annoying hoe :/
1:09 a.m.
first off, every time he comes around u or somebody mentions his name u visibly, albeit slightly, perk up. like u look a little less angry than u usually do.
The text stops there but soon, the three dots appear at the bottom of her screen.
to: resting bitch face ;p
from: annoying hoe :/
1:09 a.m.
secondly, u always have this fond look on ur face whenever he is near.
She blinks. Once. Twice. Huh?
to: annoying hoe :/
from: resting bitch face ;p
1:10 a.m.
no, i don’t.
Fond look on my face my ass. If there’s one thing you can count on, it’s Piper McLean never going soft.
to: resting bitch face ;p
from: annoying hoe :/
1:10 a.m.
unless u r constantly looking at urself in the mirror there is no way you could possibly see urself.
Does he have a point? Yes. Does that mean she would ever admit that? Hell no. She throws her hair into a messy bun while waiting for a response.
to: resting bitch face ;p
from: annoying hoe :/
1:10 a.m.
as i was saying, u also seem to spend time with him more.
She audibly scoffs in disagreement, knowing full well that he’s right once again.
to: annoying hoe :/
from: resting bitch face ;p
1:11 a.m.
how?
Thinking back, she realizes that she doesn’t spend a lot of physical time with Leo. Instead, they call, text, and facetime. Meanwhile, she and Jason hang out a lot more.
to: annoying hoe :/
from: resting bitch face ;p
1:11 a.m.
if i admit that i spend time with him will u leave me alone?
She sits up, anxiety practically oozing out of her. Why was Leo so determined to prove that she liked Jason? Were there any other things that she subconsciously does around him that other people noticed too? Did she like Jason? Sure, he understands her although he can be oblivious at times. And his sarcasm rivals her own (which was surprising by the way). And the way it seems like he’s been aged beyond his years yet still holds an essence of innocence. Or how his face lights up when he talks about topics he’s passionate about. How the scar on his upper lip curves into a little crescent whenever he smiles. How he has a tattoo of his sister’s birthday in Roman numerals because she’s the only family he has right now. How he is so unbearably happy and kind regardless of all the shit he’s been through. How he’s adorable at times and how he makes her want to punch his lights out for being so stupid. How he’s just so...beautiful. Ugh! She gets out of her, very comfortable mind you, bed just so she can faceplant into her pillows. Did she not just say that she doesn’t go soft? “Stupid Jason. Stupid, stupid feelings,” she grumbles. A chime from her phone startles her out of her pity party. Tentatively, she lifts her head and grabs her phone. The notification is from Leo, of course.
to: resting bitch face ;p
from: annoying hoe :/
1:13 a.m.
idk.
Her anxiety bubbles up again, thousands of “what if” scenarios flit throughout her head.
to: annoying hoe :/
from: resting bitch face ;p
1:14 a.m.
leo. what if i do like him? what if he doesn’t like me back? what if he does like me back? what if i don’t like him back?
She can’t bear the thought of losing Jason as a friend because even though she might not show it, she cares about her friends. Hell, she might even consider them family and that’s a big deal.
to: resting bitch face ;p
from: annoying hoe :/
1:14 a.m.
whoa, whoa. calm down, piper. i didn’t know this meant so much to u.
Was he serious? Of course it meant a lot to her, she could possibly lose one of her best friends over a stupid crush.
to: annoying hoe :/
from: resting bitch face ;p
1:15 a.m.
well, now u know.
This was all too frustrating and confusing and she had too many questions. When did I start liking Jason? Why did I start liking Jason? Did he feel the same way?
to: resting bitch face ;p
from: annoying hoe :/
1:15 a.m.
ok, ok. but, one, if u do like him i’m sure it won’t be the worst thing in the world. two, there’s no way of knowing unless u ask and if he likes u back then u guys can date and be all mushy. three, if u don’t actually like him and if he likes u i’m sure he’s not gonna get mad or anything like that.
She appreciates Leo’s reassurances. She appreciates him for being there for her while she is currently having an exponential crisis. She appreciates him for being one of her only friends even though she’s an outcast. She almost considers changing his contact name. Almost.
to: annoying hoe :/
from: resting bitch face ;p
1:16 a.m.
thanks leo. i really needed that.
His reply comes quick.
to: resting bitch face ;p
from: annoying hoe :/
1:16 a.m.
yh, ik i’m awesome. now leave me alone so i can get my beauty sleep. i suggest u do the same.
She cracks a small smile as she types up her response.
to: annoying hoe :/
from: resting bitch face ;p
1:16 a.m.
goodnight leo.
She turns off her phone and curls up under the covers, knowing that even though her problems aren’t solved, she can sleep easier knowing her inner turmoil has been partially solved.
She wakes up to a text, which surprises her because no one in their right mind would be up before eleven o'clock on a Saturday.

7:34 a.m.
Hey Pipes! Do you want to get ice cream later on today?
Nobody except, Jason Fucking Grace.

Against The Odds - Part 3
Part 1 Part 2
Daryl Dixon x Reader
A/N: The support for this has been amazing, thank you to everyone who has liked, reblogged and commented on it, it means the world to me!!
So here it is the final part, I hope that the ending will please everyone!!
Summary: When a run goes horribly wrong, Daryl has to fight to save [Y/N] life.
Word Count: 2148
Trigger Warning: Mention of Blood
The silence seemed to last for eternity, just sitting and waiting staring at his hands covered in the blood of the woman he loves.
When the silence was shattered by doors opening behind him and Denise and Tara stepping, like Daryl, both covered in your blood.
Daryl and Rick stood up and faced them hoping and praying that the news was better than the looks on their faces.
“We stopped the bleeding and managed to cauterize the wound. She seems stable, unconscious, but stable.” Denise told Daryl.
Daryl stared into space thinking that this time she wasn’t going to make it, but they had been given another chance.
“Thank you, I can’t even explain…” Daryl tried not to break down.
“You can go and see her,” Denise said.
Without another word, Daryl walked through those doors and gazed upon the unconscious body of the love of his life, and a small smile appeared on his lips. Although unconscious you were alive, and he’d never been happier and relieved in his life.
Daryl pulled up a chair and sat by your side taking one of your hands in his, swearing never to let go.
Days came and went, and even though you were still alive Daryl was terrified that you’d never wake up.
Every waking moment he was by your side waiting for you to open your eyes.
Three days later Daryl was still at your side.
You could feel yourself being lifted out of the darkness you felt that you’ve been in for a lifetime, light and warmth started streaming back into your life.
You opened your eyes more and more getting used to this much light. You moved your head slightly and looked down your body to see a sleeping Daryl, his head resting on the top of your thighs.
He looked so peaceful, you couldn’t even imagine what he had been through in all of this. You didn’t really want to wake him, you thought that he must need it but after everything, you knew he’d want you to.
You slowly in the gentlest way ran your hand through Daryl’s hair, remembering what it was like to touch him again.
You see Daryl slightly stir, not knowing what is going on, as he starts to wake and tilts his head to look in your direction, swearing he could feel your hand on him, he sees your beautiful (y/e/c) eyes smiling down at him.
Daryl stood up sharply not knowing what else to do he placed a kiss on your lips savoring every moment of it.
As Daryl pulls away he just gazes into your eyes in a loving way, the way he was looking at you, you could feel his love radiating from him.
“I thought I was gonna lose you”, Daryl said with such sadness in his voice, he had been so close to losing you he wouldn’t know what to do if he were to actually lose you.
“You’ll have to try harder than that”, you joked, trying to relieve some of Daryl’s sadness, trying to remind him that you are here, right now by his side.
As Daryl gives you a slight smile you attempt to sit up when a pang of pain radiates through your entire body and causes you to hiss.
“Take it easy, okay,” Daryl says while he goes to the other side of the room to get some pillows to help prop you up a little.
As you painfully raise yourself up a little Daryl places the pillows behind your back, and you finally get in a somewhat comfortable position.
Daryl handed you some antibiotics and some water and tells you to take it.
“You hungry?” Daryl asks knowing it has been a while since you had proper food.
You give Daryl a small nod, he places a kiss on your forehead and leaves to get you some food.
With Daryl gone and the pain still lingering you start to think back on the events that put you in here, and a sinking feeling came over you. You were used to near-death experiences hell, living in this world it was a miracle if you went a day without one, but something about this one felt different, it felt more real, and it was petrifying.
In your seated position you looked down towards your torso where your injury lies. You slowly reached your hand down to pull your shirt up a little to reveal a bandage going around the entire circumference of your torso. Another reminder of how you nearly lost everything.
A look of sorrow came upon your face, you were so engrossed with everything that had happened you didn’t even hear Daryl come back in.
As Daryl walked through the door he saw a look on your face that he’d never seen before, a look a pure fear as you were looking at your wound. He never wanted you to feel fear like that, he was always there to protect you from it, but he was seeing it right now and it was killing him.
He gently walked over and put the plate on food on the side table and placed his hand on top of your hand that was holding your shirt up, and slowly pulled your shirt back down.
“You okay?” Daryl asked knowing that you probably weren’t, but he would do anything to help.
“Yh, it’s just, this time, I thought it was the end for me.” You said having that chilling thought enter your mind again.
Daryl raised a hand to your cheek and caressed it.
“I would never let you die”, he told you in a stern but loving way.
You believed him, you always did, there was nothing Daryl wouldn’t do to save your life. There was nothing you wouldn’t do to save his either.
“Here…”, Daryl hand you a plate of food.
“Eat this then you need to get some rest.”
You ate your food like you had never eaten before, and thankfully you felt full. Without saying a word, you took Daryl’s hand and fell asleep knowing he will be there whenever you needed him.
---- A Week Later ----
You were still in the infirmary, Denise wanted you to work up your strength and keep an eye on you. Most nights Daryl would crawl into the bed next to you so you wouldn’t be alone.
You were getting used to walking again, it was hard and painful at times but with the help of Daryl, your strength was growing day by day.
The day had finally come when you could go back to the home you shared with Daryl. You were beyond excited to go back, it felt like so long that you had been in your own bed and you couldn’t wait to be in the privacy of your own home.
The walk to the house was the furthest you had been since your accident. You managed to get half where there when you started to slow down, the pain really setting in but determined to do it, Daryl walked up beside you and laced an arm around your waist and guided you the rest of the way.
Daryl opened the door to your house and you are hit with a strange sense of nostalgia, this had been your home for so long now, there was nowhere you’d rather be, and after your accident, you started to appreciate everything just that little bit more, even your house.
“Come on, let's get you in the shower and in your own bed,” Daryl said still holding on to you.
He helped you half way up the stairs when a knock came at the door.
Daryl gives you a worried look not wanting to leave you to do this on your own, but you gave him a small nod and a smile, telling him you’d been alright, and with that, he made his way to the door and you made your way to your room to get some fresh clothes.
As you are rummaging around your drawers you hear that it was rick that was at the door, you couldn’t hear what they were saying, but the tone sounded off and you couldn’t help but be curious as to what they were saying.
You quietly made your way out of your room and headed towards the top of the stairs, out of sight, to hear what was being said.
“How is she?” Rick asked with genuine concern.
“She’s doing a lot better, small steps but she’s getting there,” Daryl told Rick.
You knew that the main reason for your good recovery was him, he was by your side every step, literally.
“Good, man I’m so happy,” Rick said, then there was a slight pause. You couldn’t see their facial expressions but if you could you would say that rick looked a little nervous.
“Look, I know you and (Y/N) have been through so much in these last few days, but I was thinking, that maybe we send another group out to that university, there could be useful things that we need,” Rick explained to Daryl.
Daryl knew he was right, but he didn’t know if he could face going back to the place that almost killed you.
You were a suborn person, you tried to the best of your ability to not let things defeat you when you heard what Rick had to say you knew you had a chance.
You headed down the stairs as quickly as you could, which wasn’t that quick and as soon as Rick and Daryl came into view you spoke up.
“I wanna go.” Both of their heads turned around in utter shock at what you had just said.
You knew they wouldn’t think this was a good idea, but you wanted to put your foot down and interjected before any of them could protest.
“Please, I need to do this.” You looked at Daryl, he knew you better than anyone, and even though he hated this idea he knew why you wanted to go.
But Daryl did not look convinced, thinking of that place the only thing he could see was you impaled on that rebar bleeding to death in front of him, and the thought of that made him squirm.
“We won’t split up this time,” doing everything you could to convince him.
Daryl looks to rick hoping Rick would answer for him.
“Your call brother.” Daryl took a minute to really think this through, staring at you the whole time, you could see the gods in his head working.
“You don’t leave my side, you understand!” he said in a commanding tone, but you understood why. Everything Daryl does is to protect you and its one of the many reasons you love him.
---- Next Day----
Da Ja Vu seemed to hit you, you made the exact same journey from your house to the truck, with the same items. You took the exact same roads and ended up in the exact spot you parked the first-time around.
When it was time to get out of the truck you paused, suddenly feeling uncomfortable. Coming back here was almost like facing your mortality, this could have been the place you died, and that hit you like a wave on the rocks.
You stared ahead at the university, not able to move in this moment when Daryl leaned over and placed his hand in yours and gave it a gentle squeeze, that was all you needed to know you were alive and most importantly not alone.
You turned to Daryl and gave him a smile and got out of the truck and headed towards the entrance of the university.
The further you get the more to recognize everything around you. Walking through some doors you came to an abrupt stop when you saw a rebar with a pool of blood surrounding it, your blood.
You stared at your blood staining the rebar and the floor when Daryl laced his fingers with yours to comfort you. You stood there hand in hand as you rested your head on his shoulder. You looked up into his eyes signaling you were ready to move on and do the job you were meant to do the first time.
You and Daryl walked away from the memories of the event and went on to have a successful run, finding a lot of useful supplies and heading off in the truck.
Looking out of the window of the moving truck you smiled to yourself, knowing you had defeated that place, that is wasn’t the end for you.
“What are you smiling at?” Daryl asked curious, after everything that had happened you could still smile.
“We’re alive” was all you said with a big smile on your face, taking Daryl’s hand in yours as you drove back to your home, together.

Reply : )
You are the bold tings
I am the normal tings
btw**If I ask questions in this just dm me the answers lol
“I’m all good. I just had a doctors appt which took forever but nothing to worry about thanks for asking.”
Oh okay that’s calmed me, I was going crazy at the time, I thought something bad had happened, I didn’t know if I was being a silly moo or not...yk.
“ Also I’m gonna check out the thing now but I’m rly glad it seems like this won’t has been good at least w music”
Emily, I have NO IDEA what you were aiming to say here fam, but I only had a minor stroke so..all good : )
“U have no idea how much ready that made me smile fr that’s actually so thoughtful and how u remember all of that in such detail wow😂”
I’m honestly glad It made you smile because it made the others smile too, i’m quite happy about that. Yeah I have a strange thing with detail, sometimes I go a bit too much into it, however, I felt it was necessary for that kind of message.
“...the nun story was made up but I appreciate that u remember that sm haha, and the ozone layer and everything...”
Oiiii, you definitely had me with that I was thinking like “Who tf are these Nuns and why hasn’t anyone called the police or something...chasing kids and taking phones n shit” and legit, as I’m writing this it had just made me remember that some nights when me or David didn’t reply cos we were SLEEPING, one of you kept sending like “penis” 50+ times at 4:00 a.m...I mean, it wasn’t that pleasing waking up to penis but whatever!
“And it’s actually insane how many years it has been”
I knowwwww, I can’t believe next year it’ll be THREE YEARS since we all met, crazy stuff!! Nah like I actually find it soooooo weird how, we were all on Instagram one day, and SOMEHOW you came across our account. I remember me and David thought you and the rest were a bit sus as well as 3 doods being mega weird, wait I was 16 when we started talking eww wtf i’m now 19 Im so old why am i writing this ur thinking?! idk its just all coming out 😂
“...Then I remember Graydon got added to the gc and I didn’t know what to think at first but we bonded over liking Hamilton and making fun of his bagged milk and how he spoke French.”
Oh my days I can not BELIEVE He used milk from a bag THAT. IS. SO. WRONG. Straight from the cows boob or udder or whatever the fuck, is the best 😂 You all were so different from me and David haha, we failed french...well David did, I JUST passed, kinda and we didn’t read books or go to musicals but 2 years on..I still don’t.
“Then I remember thinking how crazy it was to realize aurora lives like an hour drive away from me or maybe less.”
Jeez I forgot she lives down in AZ, would you ever go see her if you had the time and set it up with her? Or do you think it would be awks n weird n stuff 😂 Personally I actually don’t wanna meet anyone..jk obvs, but when i’m selling out shows in Phoenix you’re all being der ygm 😂
“I remember u and David went to that rainbow looking school and u had French together and u wore those funny little proper uniforms”
Nah I was creasing when I read this yk!! I can’t lie it was..a...weird school to go to 😂 But yeah I remember the uniform was so heavy like back in 2016 summer it got up to 37 - 40 Celsius that’s like the hottest temp in the UK in 60yrs or something and we had to wear jumpers and blazer EVEN IN THE CLASSROOM nah im getting vexed just thinking about it but yeah I stole an exit sign from the main entrance to keep as a keepsake lol
“u and David would joke around and say I was the annoying posh type of I was English and one day I remember being on discord for hours until like 6am for u guys”
Yeah we both thought you were dead serious n shit like we tried not to swear in the chat cos we didn’t know if you were a hard church person! Yeah I remember those days too. The thing is, a while before we met you and the rest we would do that daily like our days would be like: go to school, come home, search the cupboards, and then go on discord at like 8 pm and get off at 4-5 am Friday thru Saturday! and yeah i remember you never talked when we were in a call and me and David we actually had to msg each other shit like “oi is Emily good?” and when we asked on discord you’d reply with “yeah i’m here” 😂
“...and David making tea or coffee smthg like that”
I have the video he made, I’ll send it to you, lmk when you get this far!
“I remember the night u said u we’re leaving for Germany and how I was nervous bc I knew I couldn’t do anything to stop u but I just wanted u to be happy.”
We’re even, We made it up and planned that 😂 Sorry :( David would msg me on snapchat me and be like “They’re actually tryna get me to go get and help you! fuck off” He’s a good one!
“I remember the dogs u had years ago”
Yeah I had to leave them behind when I left :( it was the HARDEST thing I've ever had to do! I had the fluffy one for 8yrs and the small one for 8 months
“I could never forget that u thought the Ozone layer was a basketball term”
Allow it and forget it yh I’m smarter now innit!
“...and sorry Izzy and I were little bitches back then”
Nah it’s all good I think i spoke to her like *well idk who i was speaking to* 4 times lol she was funny when we did talk tho!
“but I rly appreciate our friendship and sticking together through the years and yeah can’t wait for more memories”
Me too, i’m glad it was you guys who we bumped into that day, I actually can’t explain how grateful I am to know you are there whenever I need you rt! The Future gonna be great fr !! Thank you!
