lyragray headcannons
okay!!
LYRA X GRAYSON HEADCANONS:
⢠once they started dating publicly, so many jewelry stores wanted to do gold vs silver photoshoots on them because they both contrast the colours so well (lyra with gold and gray with silver) + it would give the stores more popularity
⢠they can both sing very well
⢠the only time that lyra doesnât have nightmares about her father shooting himself is when sheâs sleeping with grayson <33
⢠they love going out for coffee dates but also make fun of each others coffee order (lyra believes that black coffee are way too bitter, and grayson believes that lattes are too sweet)
⢠grayson doesnât like when anybody plays with his hair, but lets it slide when itâs lyra
⢠paparazzi have seen them getting back from fancy events/parties with grayson holding her heels and lyra wearing his suit jacket when it gets cold đđ (also he totally picks her up and just carryâs her when she has her heels off tell me im wrong)
⢠lyra and grayson both have sweet toothâs but only really for chocolate, so for movie nights they have chocolate desserts
⢠once they got stuck in a supplyâs closet at some event because they wanted to go find a private place to make out, and when oren found them and got them out his brothers + avery made fun of grayson RELENTLESSLY
⢠not lyra though because sheâs too scary (yes theyâre scared of lyra but not grayson)
⢠grayson has started adapting lyraâs sleep routine so instead of him waking up at like 5, heâs started waking up at 6-6:30 instead (which lyra still thinks is so weird since she wakes up at like 8-8:30 every day and even later on weekends)
⢠but sometimes she refuses to let go of him and makes him stay in bed with her for a little longer, just so she can see him more in the morning
⢠lyraâs more of a dog person than a cat person whereas graysonâs more of a cat person than a dog person (still they both adore tiramisu)
⢠speaking of tiramisu, sheâs started coming to lyra and graysons bed instead of xanders and xander sees it as betrayal
okay thats all i hope u like it!! đ

where: the main tent who: @catalina--rojas
"Have you decided what type of fun activities you are going to participate in?" He turned to the woman standing beside him. David had looked over the list, but wasn't quite sure how much he might get involved.

@catalina--rojas
"Come on, take a fucking minute." She said, pulling her friend away.
To be fair, Adriana didn't have a fucking clue what Catalina was up to, but she didn't care. She wanted to get drunk and just get this while thing off the ground. "I just saw my ex and I kind of want a shot. New game? Every time we see someone we hooked up with - a shot?" Then she paused for a second. "Okay, maybe a sip." A whole shot could be too dangerous.

FOR: @catalina--rojas EVENT: The Camp Out WHERE: Rich Tent. Inside.
Kerem was flabbergasted, eyes zoning into pinpricks as he thought of sharing a tent with a Rutherford. And what happened to seemingly be a proud one. What a bold move he'd make in the wake of his recent decision. He wasn't yet comfortable enough to approach the Russians, an alliance didn't mean they were one of them, not yet anyway. And the idea that he could bump into Melissa at any given moment had the muscles in his body aching from the constant need to tense.
The regret? Was real.
"Do I need to sleep with one eye open around you?" He was getting straight to the point, he guessed. "Because I'm a horrible person without some shut eye."

She took a dainty sip from her glass, the taste dry and crisp against her tongue. It was something she thought she would never have again.
Smiling, she caught sight of someone familiar. The mask hid his face, certainly, but no matter what iteration of him it was, she would recognize him easily. The way he moved was as definitive as his smile.
Her fingers curled around his bicep, pressing mouth to his ear.
"Care to dance, mi hiena tramposa?"
~@idol-trickster
@mori-me-oppa
Jiwoon didn't expect to feel the contact, followed by a sultry voice in his ear. A lesser, less confident man may have been startled into a jolt, but the idol only chuckled in surprise, looking over to see the woman clad in black, red, and white. Eyes made contact in the proximity, an interested smile given as he made sure to look over the avian-like mask.
"I didn't before, but with such an invitation, I'm interested in seeing what else you'll do to keep me entertained." A quiet breathy chuckle escaped as he turned to face Catalina as full attention was given; A daunting prospect to have such from the Trickster. Soon, a hand was held out to her in facilitating the offer, the predatory glow of amused eyes behind the smiling mask a sign of foreboding mischief.

WHERE: County Fair WITH: @linaxmae
While it went without saying that the fair wasnât quite Antonioâs scene, when it came to his children, the opposite was undoubtedly true. For the last two hours, heâd watched, mesmerized, as the two of them leaned into all the sights and sounds around them, never once taking a single moment of it for granted. It was spectacular, really. And it was in those collection of moments that Antonio knewâ he could travel the world over, see every wonder it had to offer, and none of it would ever come close to how he felt as he witnessed his children experience true joy. It was the sort of thing that money couldnât buy, and it only made him yearn for more moments just like this. But with custody being an uphill climb and his duties with the cartel keeping him busy, heâd take whatever he could get. Arming them both with cotton candy, Antonio started to guide them towards the ferris wheel, only to have them both dart off course and directly at their aunt. Glancing up from the tops of their heads, he met her gaze, and offered up a curt smile. âLina, hey,â he greeted, giving a small wave. It was no secret that the two of them werenât as close as theyâd once been, and Tony didnât pretend not to know why. But it was still so strange to him, even now, how flesh and blood could feel so foreign to him. But he knew that was his faultâ in the last decade, heâd spent more time abroad than home; inevitably, that created distance, both physical and emotional. âDidnât expect to see you here,â he mentioned, figuring heâd dive into the small talk, even though he wasnât particularly good at it. âWe were about to head over to the ferris wheel,â he explained, nodding down at his kids, âIf you want to join?â In some ways, it was an olive branchâ surely, the two of them could put their bullshit aside for a moment, just for the kids. âThey might even share some cotton candy with you.â

location: in the greenhouse at the botanical gardens for: @cursivequiet
Tucked away in a corner behind a couple of large plants, Pearl had only taken a couple hits from her joint before someone came around the corner. She was half a second from throwing it in the dirt when she realized she recognized the face, and though it wasn't one she particularly wanted to see, it was still better than some stranger with a kid.
"Oh," she said tonelessly, lifting the joint again to her lips. "You. I'll share if you can not be annoying for five minutes."

You'll never guess what Peter Potamus just came up with in partnership with the Catalina Diving Clowder
Out Avalon way, on no less than The Magic Isle (and during somewhat slack times for the tourist trade more than anything, aside from the annual Avalon Harbour Underwater Cleanup), there's a new and potentially emerging tradition about to ensue.
No less than the Catalina Diver's Story Slam, devised and developed with much consultation between the Catalina Diving Clowder and the Ambassador for Diving among the Funtastic World of Hanna-Barbera, no less than Peter Potamus. And, at least for the nonce, in a small-time venue in Beautiful Downtown Avalon, let alone the Casino (that being ruled out for the sake of testing audience response before considering same).
While it may not be The Moth exactly, the Catalina Diver's Story Slam can expect to have plenty of intimacy when it comes to divers of all stripes sharing tales of diving and the dive experience in any and all manner of conditions, snorkelling to SCUBA to rebreather--perhaps with at least one tale of a mermaid encounter or even one involving a dolphin-assisted rescue of a stranded diver.
And you have to wonder how many abalone dives off Catalina Peter Potamus and the Clowder went through to come up with the nuclei of the slam!

Congratulations!
A book similar to inheritance games:đ
âď¸: Academic rival jameson hawthorne fic.
đ: A double date (lyra x Grayson) + (Avery x jameson )
thank you!!
for đ, im sure youâve probably heard this before, but the naturals by jennifer lynn barnes. the plot isnât exactly the same as itâs about a young group in the fbi called âthe naturalsâ but itâs similar in ways like them solving things like the inheritance games. itâs more similar character wise though, as a lot of characters are very much like the ones in the inheritance games. thereâs also the found family trope of ur into that, and also a similar love triangle!!
thereâs also another book, called âheiress takes allâ, and itâs said to be very similar to the inheritance games and oceans 11. i donât know what itâs about much, (as i havenât read it) but im sure if you search it up on amazon or goodreads you should be able to read the blurb!!
for âď¸, im assuming that u mean an au and im so sorry but i am TERRIBLE at writing auâs đđ im also really bad at writing *character* x reader but i can still try and write those, where as auâs are just so hard for me đđ im so sorry but if u want something else done feel free to request it again!!
for đ, sure!!
LYRA X GRAY + AVERY X JAMESON DOUBLE DATE HEAD CANONS:
⢠lyra and grayson show up a bit late (nothing extreme, just like 5-10 minutes) which surprised both avery and jameson because grayson is never late
⢠they found out after that it was because lyra wanted to match with grayson last minute and scrapped her whole outfit to match with his â ď¸â ď¸
⢠they would probably go to a restaurant first, and then maybe go to a second location
⢠it started with small talk about their lives and days, but then slowly it turned into jameson and grayson seeing who can embarrass each other more by telling humiliating stories about each other from their childhoods đđ
⢠as soon as jameson reached the leather pants story though, grayson switched the topic and stopped with the whole competition
⢠lyra was curious but left it alone⌠for now. đ
⢠lyra ordered a pasta, grayson ordered a steak, avery ordered fancy fish?? (idfk what they serve at fancy restaurants just think of the most expensive and tasty fish u can buy đđ) and jameson ordered⌠chicken wings â ď¸â ď¸
⢠lyra made fun of him for it and then jameson told grayson to break up with her
⢠in fact, lyra ends up making fun of him the whole night đ
jameson to the waiter: âcan i have some chicken wings please?â
jameson, once the waiter walks away: âI havenât had chicken wings 3 months!â
lyra, snickering: âyou look like youâve had enough chicken wings for 3 monthsâ
jameson gives her a wounded look and rolls his eyes, turning to grayson: âsheâs mean, you should break up with herâ
grayson, before he can even finish speaking: âno.â
later again that dinnerâŚ
avery: âshould we get another side for seconds?â
grayson and lyra shake their heads, but jameson speaks: âcan i get one? im still hungry.â
noticing graysonâs raised brow, he sighed: âdonât give me that look. matter of fact, i skipped lunch today!â
lyra, giggling again and muttering in a voice that jameson could just hear: âdoesnât look like itâŚâ
jameson: âLYRA SHUT UP!!â
people ended up staring and as soon as the date was over and they were back at the house grayson called a beat down (just to give him an excuse to beat him up â ď¸â ď¸đ)
⢠once they do get back to the house though and grayson and jameson are done fighting, they watch a movie and jameson is secretly side eyeing grayson and lyra the whole time LMAOO
⢠lyra and avery end up sitting next to each other on the couch with grayson and jameson on the other side and, in whispers, gossip about them
⢠the boys canât hear what theyâre saying but spend more time trying to listen and hear what theyâre talking about then actually watching the movie
⢠once theyâre finished watching the movie, (and by watching the movie i mean lyra and avery gossiping while jameson and grayson try to secretly listen to them) lyra feels bad about all her fat jokes so she slips jameson a packet of gummies with a sorry note attached to them
⢠the gummies were from xanderâs not-so-secret stash and now he officially has a fued with lyra but at least now jameson is going back to liking her đđ (one hawthorne at a time people đŞđŞ)
THATS ALL I HOPE U LIKED THEM!! 𫶠(and im sorry again about not being able to do the âď¸ one, if you have another one u want me to do thats not about an au just lmk pls đ)

"Open a tabloid sometime. Should take the edge off." Not to say that Damon relished in having his exploits constantly speculated upon, but his reputation in print had always been exceedingly kinder than poor Gideon's.
A smile of pure, unadulterated amusement spread across his lips. "You're going to trade perfectly good blow for a pair of shoes? Selling yourself short there, but I s'pose a gal's gotta do what she's gotta do." Self-imposed hard times and all. "Maybe you'll get lucky and find a bleeding heart hiding amongst all the polyester."
"Damon!" Catty exclaimed. "Why do I feel like I haven't seen your beautiful face in forever?!" She asked, skipping over the whole making fun of her bit.
"Well...if you know someone that brought extra shoes, send them my way. I've got drugs...so...maybe that'll help." And then she chuckled. "Also...I don't know when I'll get over the fact that you Brits call your tennis shoes 'trainers'. It's so cute"

â â CATALINA ISLAND âšâż
cw: catalina!abby/mamabear!abby/loser!abby/sub!abby, yara mention (iâm sorry⌠we miss u babygirl), slight themes of homophobia but nothing too heavy, post-pillars timeline so abby has short hair and no muscles, abby falls first but reader falls harder, tribbing eventually⌠đ (not proofread)
wc: 6.0k
quite vividly does abby remember the first time she saw you. bright overhead lights stabbed through her vision, gloved fingers and cold metal tools poked and prodded at her extremely burnt, extremely sensitive skin. but not you, you were gentle with her. speaking in a hushed voice that comforted the dull ache crawling up her head, hands keeping their distance from her sore and aching body.
she felt at ease. for the first time in⌠months? years? decades? suddenly the weight of previous events didnât seem so heavy. she felt lighter, calmer, unafraid. but maybe it was just the morphine making her feel this way, because she passed back out minutes after having this epiphany.
âabbyâŚâ the boy whispered. she didnât hear it, too deep in her slumber to respond.
âabbyyyyyy, wake up.â he pleaded. nudging her sides and arms in an attempt to wake her. still, her rest was uninterrupted.
âABBY!â he finally shouted, yanking her braid in despair.
âjâsus christ, lev, whaâddyou want?â she yawned. one benefit of living out at sea was that there were never any threats out there. other than the occasional storm, they were completely safe, and abby could let her guard down for the first time in what felt like forever.
âcome look at the stars with me.â he demanded, pointing to the front of the boat.
âare you serious?â abby asked, somewhat furious she got woken up for this, but could she blame him? his childlike wonder provided a refreshing new perspective. and as abby always said, lev used to live under a rock, so she was always happy to introduce him to new things, although his lack of general knowledge sometimes startled her.
âcome on, please?â he added. âiâve never seen them so bright before, pleaseee?â
abby huffed and got up, grabbing her blanket and taking it with her, already predicting lev would be shivering in an instant. and she was right. somehow, in the middle of the pacific ocean, the sun beating down on them for 12 hours a day, lev was always cold.
she took a seat on the deck next to him, wrapping the blanket around the two of them as they stared up into the sky. it was beautiful, she had to admit. it was hard to see the stars this clearly on land, and seeing the whole galaxy like this was such a treasure. it never stopped, no buildings or mountains concealing the sky, it was just pure space for miles.
they were silent for a while, lev looking up at the night sky with wide eyes, and abby still trying to shake the sleepiness from her mind.
ââŚabby?â lev asked after a while.
âyeah?â she responded.
âdo you believe in a god?â
she debated this for a while. what a tricky question. did she want to believe? yes. 1,000%. but did she believe? ⌠did she? does she? will she?
âiâm not sure.â she says. âno, i guess not.â
âi do. and i think thatâs where yara is right now.â
oh. abbyâs face falls, itâs always tough to think about levâs sister. sure, she died a hero, but she shouldnât have. she was so young, so strong, so determined, intelligent, kind, strategic, resilient. abby never knew her very well, but she replays the conversation she had with yara quite often. she wishes so badly she couldâve saved her, but at the end of the day itâs permanent. a script written in ink, a final decision.
if there is a god, i swear iâm gonna kill him she thinks.
âdo you see that star?â lev asks, pointing up to an extra luminescent star twinkling brighter than the rest of them. âi think thatâs her.â he continues. âand sheâs always with us.â
abby huffs a laugh and stands, returning back to bed. âi donât believe in all that.â
lev has no choice but to chase after her if he wants the warmth of the blanket back, so he does. âmaybe your dad is up there too.â he states truthfully, climbing into bed next to her. her arms wrap around him as she settles back into slumber. âmaybe,â she says. âor maybe heâs just gone.â
âdo you ever miss him?â lev asks.
âevery day. more than anything.â and suddenly sheâs asleep again.
âabby?â
âabby?â âŚ..
âABBY!â the voice asks again, and suddenly sheâs wide awake. sheâs not on the boat with lev anymore, instead sheâs⌠in a hospital? or an office? somewhere too bright that smells too much of disinfectant.
âit was just a dream,â you soothe, shushing her pained whimpers and cries. âyou can go back to sleep if youâd like.â
she looks over to you, one of the sweetest sights sheâs ever seen. âiâve seen you before.â she whispers.
you smile and pat her hands, abby is one of your favorite patients. being on narcotics for weeks makes for an easy client, all you really do is change her bandages and occasionally silence her night terrors. youâve actually gotten to know her quite well from her⌠son? you still donât know the full story on that, apparently she betrayed the entire washington liberation front to adopt him and his sister, and that sheâs been a better caretaker to him than his biological mother ever has been. but you can see in her youthful features that sheâs still young. too young to be a mother. and lev cringes at the thought of calling her mom.
âwhere am i?â she asks, voice gravelly from being asleep for so long.
âcatalina island critical care unit.â you respond gently. âor, CICCU, but i donât wanna confuse you with too many letters.â
âwhereâs lev?â she asks frantically, suddenly fully aware that sheâs not in the same room as him right now.
âheâs okay. sleeping. itâs pretty late.â
âwas i talking?â she asks, cringing at the thought of someone as perfect as you listening to her blabber in her sleep.
âno, not this time. but i always prefer your talking over your screaming.â you joke.
âwhat do i talk about?â she asks, although not sure she wants to hear the answer.
âlev mostly. sometimes others, usually âmannyâ and âaliceâ.â
âoh.â she sighs. she feels so much better compared to the night she first saw you. was that when she arrived? whatever, she canât remember anything other than you. her muscles arenât sore anymore, her skin feels cooler and softer, finally.
âyou should go back to sleep.â you say. âyour body needs the rest, and iâm not really supposed to be talking to my patients anyways.â
she raises an eyebrow at this. âwhyâs that?â
âmy social skills are no good, thatâs why they put me on the night shift. iâm not sweet or gentle enough for daytime caretaking.â
blasphemy. you? not sweet or gentle? this is the first time in her whole life sheâs felt truly comfortable, and itâs all because of you. she closes her eyes, willing herself to get more rest before she sees you again.
her daytime nurse fucking sucks. sheâs an old lady with a scratchy voice, not deep and smooth like yours. and sheâs mean. abby always catches her talking shit about other doctors at the hospital, and itâs not even normal stuff like gossip or personal experience and whatnot, she takes real jabs at the people in the community, coming for their looks and personalities. worst of all, the mean nurse hates you.
she always chatters on about how you can never do your job correctly, and apparently youâre wasting all of godâs honor by not being married yet. but itâs not until the mean nurse mentions âsleeping around with⌠femalesâŚâ that she finally listens to what the mean nurse is saying, and she has a strong feeling she relates to you just fine.
abby sighs in relief when you walk in for your night shift. you catch this, giggling a little âwhat was that about?â
âi hate the other nurse.â she pouts, grimacing at the thought of seeing her again when dusk turns to dawn.
âwho, dr. cosby?â you ask.
âyeah, if thatâs her name.â
âi donât like her either,â you admit. âbut sheâs the only one completely trained in full time caretaking.â
âdo you have to work with her?â abby asks, growing slightly defensive over you. sheâs gotten to know you over the past few days, too, and youâve been able to fill in some of the gaps from the stories lev has told you.
âyeah, almost every day. sheâs kinda like my boss since sheâs training me, but she doesnât pay me or anything⌠which kinda makes it worse. i feel like i deserve an extra paycheck for putting up with her.â you laugh.
abby still canât get over your laugh, the sweet, deep giggles that seem to float out of you like bubbles. abby doesnât realize this yet, but she has a huge crush on you.
âanyways, youâre supposed to be asleep, anderson.â you accuse, pointing a jokingly angry finger at her.
âyeah, yeah, i know.â she says, sighing deeply. âbut i missed you, and i wanted to see you again after the mean nurse.â
âthatâs sweet.â you start. âbut if the mean nurse finds out you havenât been sleeping because of me, iâm fired. and theyâll replace me with someone worse.â
abby laughs, pulling a pillow over her face to cover her giggles, and falls into another restful sleep after a few minutes.
she manages to survive a few more days with dr. cosby. or, the mean nurse, in the vocabulary the two of you share. the only thing that makes it bearable is knowing sheâll see you every night, and lev even visits her sometimes. tonight is different, though, because you donât walk in at 9:00 pm when youâre regularly scheduled. dr. cosby does. abby groans audibly, she wishes she wouldâve done it louder. well, she wishes she could scream in dr. cosbyâs face, but she isnât trying to get kicked out of the CICCU before sheâs fully healed.
âusual nurse is out.â the mean nurse spits. âusual nurseâ? so she canât find the courtesy to learn your name?
âout where?â abby questions.
âon a⌠date.â she hisses.
oh shit, abby grins. a date with a woman i bet. dr. cosby isnât happy about that.
and then it hits her.
oh shit⌠abby frowns. youâre on a date with someone else right now. you decided to spend the night with another woman, ditching your usual visits with abby. this hurts. her heart twists with jealousy, suddenly the room is spinning, and she has to turn and face the wall before dr. cosby can catch her weeping into her blanket like a little kid.
abby hasnât seen you once since the night before your date. when the mean nurse comes back in the morning, she discharges abby and orders a soldier to escort her to the lodge she and lev are to share. so thatâs it? sheâs never gonna see you again? lev is out at school when she gets there, so abby has the whole place to herself until he gets back. she finds herself staring into the mirror for an unhealthy amount of time. christ, she looks different. her hair is short and choppy, although itâs gotten longer since sheâs arrived. her muscles are almost completely gone. whatever the lack of training couldnât remove, malnutrition withered away. she has scars all over her face and arms, her skin is still bumpy and blistered from the overexposure to the california sun. she looks⌠smaller? not tall and buff and scary anymore, but weak. fragile. she doesnât look like abby. and thatâs a terrifying thought.
she spends about an hour in the shower, scrubbing the hospital scent off of her skin and running her fingers through her short hair. she decides to spent the rest of the day orienting herself in this new space. sheâs never lived in a real house before, and she feels like an alien trying to do so. lev finds her laying on the couch, studying the bumps and ridges in the ceiling.
âabby?â he calls from the doorway, slinging his backpack off of his shoulders. the poor kid almost cries when he sees her, out of excitement or fear, nobody knows. abby tries to pick him up as he throws himself at her body, but she canât anymore. she doesnât have the strength with how much sheâs been weakening and how much lev has been growing. this crushes her even more, but she settles for a firm squeeze to the kid, and realizes how much her ribs do still hurt.
she doesnât sleep well that night, itâs not the same without you. she misses your heavy voice lulling her to sleep and the euphoria she got from laughing with you. something deep and heavy settles in her stomach when she remembers you now spend your nights with someone else. sheâs jealous. and sheâs sad. overwhelmed from being in such a new place. and she misses you. and tonight when she sleeps, itâs dreamless and restless and leaves her even more exhausted.
you miss abby. you didnât know the night you were gone would be the night she got discharged, and you wonder if this is a coincidence or if itâs some evil plan from dr. cosby. your date wasnât even a date anyways. the girl you were meeting showed up to the diner, but left after a few minutes after saying she needed to freshen up. you saw her leave out of the back door. so you snacked on soggy fries and day-old fish until you got fed up and went home and cried into your pillow. was dr. cosby right? are you really not likable? to make matters worse, now that abby is gone you donât have any more easy patients. you have to take care of a snappy old man who was in a boating accident. nobody can tell if heâs suffering from brain damage or if heâs just stupid, and itâs starting to drive you mad.
you miss abby. you miss watching her sleep, how her sweet face would contort into an expression of pure bliss as she finally had a peaceful dream, and how sometimes she would reach out and hold your hand for a few hours while she slept. she might be the only person on this whole island who likes you.
you two don't run into each other for about a month. the community you live in is small, but the whole island is divided into communities of about the same size. abby is sentenced to a desk job, something she'd never seen herself doing. she spends all day crunching numbers, scribbling things down on various documents and punching in even more symbols on her calculator. she's surprisingly good at it, her brain works efficiently and she's incredible at finding mistakes and working through them. lev teases her about becoming a nerd, but he's the one who voluntarily stays after school for tutoring, so she teases him right back.
you run into her right before one of your shifts, picking up a prescription from the pharmacy and dropping by her workplace to pick up some more documents. you freeze in your tracks when you see her, awkwardly blurting out an "abby! wow, uh... you look good."
and it's true. she looks better than good, she's glowing. her hair looks softer and fluffier now that it's not matted from the pillows, her skin is clearing up and restoring its natural color (which is a lot more peaceful than the burnt red it was), and she looks fuller. not nearly as big and muscular as she used to be, but she's started to gain some weight back and finally doesn't look tiny. abby notices you staring, taking in her new appearance. "thanks... so do you." she chuckles.
"i didn't know they cleared you to work." you stammer. actually, you didn't know anything about her ever since she was suddenly good to go, which you've decided is definitely dr. cosby's fault. so the two of you spend the rest of the night chatting and catching up with one another. she tells you about her job, her house, and how good lev is doing in school. you tell her about some of your newest patients, and when she asks about your date, you find pleasure in telling her that it was terrible. abby feels giddy after hearing this, not that she gets a kick out of your humiliation, but she's happy to know that you're single, and that you regret ditching her that night.
the time completely slips away from both of you, and before you know it you're an hour late for work. "shit!" you jump. "god, i'm sorry. i gotta go, i'm about to get fired!" you cry as you run down the hallway and out of the building. she laughs at this, tidying up her desk before clocking out and waking herself home. she sleeps very well that night, knowing that you're single and that you're willing to be late to work just to talk to her.
she greets you two days later with coffee outside of your office. "glad to see you didn't get fired." she jokes, you roll your eyes. "if i get written up one more time i'm done for." neither of your bosses are in today, so you finally have some peace to do your job without being yelled at. when you're not meeting with a patient, you let abby follow you around like a lost puppy, you notice how soft her hands have become when you grab them and tug her along next to you.
"thanks?" she mutters, cheeks sparkling with a pretty pink blush.
"oh, shit, i didn't mean to say that out loud." you cringe. "but it's true. they're very soft."
abby blushes impossibly more at this, so you like her hands? does that... mean anything? you're so forward with her it makes her a little dizzy, it's hard to keep up with your subtle flirtatious remarks when she can barely look at you without stuttering and tripping over herself. you're like a savior to her. you are her savior, if you didn't patch her up after her and lev had arrived, would she still be here? if she didn't get eaten alive by an infection she might've offed herself after the countless exhausting interactions with the mean nurse.
âhow did you know how i take my coffee?â you ask suddenly. abby doesnât know how to answer. well, she does, actually. but sheâs too shy to say that sometimes sheâd wake up and watch you while she was supposed to be sleeping. youâd place your coffee cup on her nightstand and flick on the lamp next to it, and then instantly stick your nose in a book. when she got done studying your face, she memorized the books you liked and the coffee you drank.
âif youâre stalking me, i wonât be upset.â you joke. abby laughs awkwardly, still calculating her answer in her mind.
âi dunno, i just know you, i guess.â she finally responds.
âfair, but now i feel bad because i donât know how you take your coffee.â you frown. she chuckles, dismissing your concern.
âno, seriously. i feel like i barely know you, and i miss getting to know you ever since the mean nurse discharged you the night i was out.â you tell her. she canât see where youâre going with this, so she just freezes and waits for you to make it obvious. âwe should go out for coffee sometime. this weekend, maybe, if youâre free.â
are you asking her on a date? platonically or romantically? do you actually like her as much as she likes you? abby stares at the ground as she thinks about what to say again. âif you donât want to, thatâs okay.â you smile. âi wonât be offended.â
âi-â she starts, trying to speak deliberately as to not stumble over her words. âi do want to. that would be really great.â
you plant a kiss on her cheek as she turns to leave, heading to her own job instead of yours. she barely registers it, giggling and swatting you away before realizing that you kissed her. she halts her stroll when she finally processes it, reaching her fingers up to feel over the spot your lips pressed to. her cheeks turn beet red as she replays what happened, and fuck, she wants you to do it again. she debates running back into the hospital to beg for another kiss, but decides not to make a fool of herself. not today, at least.
her shift passes in what feels like forever. she wants to see you again, she wants it to be the weekend so badly. curse the calendar for deeming today a thursday, and curse your work schedule for not letting you go on a date with her now.
she clocks out excitedly as soon as her shift is over, practically jogging home to meet lev for dinner. they eat on the couch, watching some old dvd of a pre-breakout day cartoon. lev falls asleep as the show crawls on, so she has to face the disappointment of shaking him awake, wishing she still had the strength to pick him up. she watches as he waddles with all ten of his blankets to his bedroom, and then collects the dishes to scrub them off in the sink.
just as sleep is about to take her, she bolts awake with a great idea. shoving her shoes on, she jogs back out of the door, practically sprinting to the hospital to catch you before you clock in for the night. when you see her standing behind you, you jump backwards and yelp, almost knocking over a cart full of needles. âgod, abby!â you curse. âyou scared the shit outta me.â
âsorryâŚâ she smiles sheepishly, a look youâve grown to love.
âwhat are you doing here?â you question. âare you hurt?â
âno, i just wanted to see you. i couldnât sleep, if that counts as an ailment.â she says, lying through her teeth. she was about to sleep soundly knowing your date was only in a few days.
âwell, iâm glad to know youâre okay, but you really need to work on prioritizing your sleep.â you scold her, but you canât help but melt at the dopey smile on her lips.
âyes, doctor.â she laughs, rolling her eyes. âare we still on for this weekend?â
âof course, if youâre not a zombie by the time we get to saturday.â you smile, nudging her with your elbow.
âalright, sorry,â she sighs theatrically. âi guess iâll leave you alone now.â
âiâm sorry for kissing you on the cheek earlier.â you blurt out, although you probably should just let the moment be. âit was just⌠muscle memory i guess.â
âmuscle memory?â she asks, dumbfounded.
âi dunno, sorry, it was definitely inappropriate. but you used to ask me for a small peck whenever i woke you up from your night terrors. iâd be surprised if you remember it, though. we had you on some pretty hefty meds.â
abby has always had trouble sleeping. as a kid, sheâd have terrible nightmares that she couldnât wake up from on her own. her dad would nudge her awake, and then soothe her back to sleep with a firm kiss on the cheek. it helped every time, and she slept like a baby knowing her dad would protect her. after he passed, the nightmares were more frequent, and there was no one to calm her down once she woke.
that mustâve been why sheâd wake up screaming, eyes open yet unable to focus as you calmed her down to the best of your ability. youâd take her heart rate and blood pressure to make sure nothing was out of the ordinary, and then stroke her short hair while she fell back to sleep. sheâd huff and kick for the first few minutes, and then reach out for your hand, guiding it to the apple of her cheek. you thought at first she wanted something cool against her burning skin, but once you moved your hand away, she demanded a kiss in a raspy and very delirious voice.
âno, itâs okay, really.â she assures you. âitâs a comfort thing i used to do with my dad. you donât need to feel bad, i promise.â
âgo to sleep, princess abby.â you demand again. âiâll see you saturday.â
with a smirk, abby turns and walks back out the door she came in. she slips back through her front door as silently as she can, and falls asleep thinking about all the ways sheâs embarrassed herself in front of you. how many more times can she do it? and how long until she cuts the shit and admits her feelings for you?
saturday comes quicker than abby would like. ever since that night, she couldnât help but fret about your feelings toward her. did you really kiss her out of muscle memory, or did you genuinely want to? her heart warmed at the sweet gesture of you soothing her back to sleep on the nights her dreams were infiltrated with death and fear and abandonment, but did you do that with all of your patients?
she tried to ignore these thoughts as they came up, but it was nearly impossible to. she dressed herself in a beige sweater and a pair of jeans, tucking her hair behind her ears and accessorizing with a black hair clip. she looks gorgeous. itâs hard not to faint when you see her, the fluttering in your stomach keeping you on your feet.
the pair of you sit tucked away in a cafe booth, chatting away like time isnât real. youâre surprised to learn that abby knows quite a bit about medicine, the knowledge coming from her father who was a doctor too. she tells you stories of her childhood, and you can see the resemblance between her and her dad, she treats lev just as well as her dad treated her. you donât mention this, though, because you can tell sheâs starting to tear up the more she talks about him.
when the conversation slows down, you decide to bite the bullet and ask her something thatâs been on your mind. âabby? can i ask you something?â
âshoot.â she says.
âdo you⌠like me?â you try. âi meanâ i dunno. iâve never really had friends before, not like you. i guess i just wanna know if you enjoy hanging out with me, or if youâre just doing this because i seem desperate.â
âof course i like you.â she affirms. âiâve never met anyone as sweet or as gentle as you, and iâve met a lot of people.â
âokay, cool. good. i like you too.â you say, reaching out to grab her hand thatâs resting on the table. she smiles and squeezes your hand, looking deeply into your eyes.
âdo you wanna get out of here?â you ask.
sand fills the holes in your shoes as the two of you stroll the beach hand in hand. abby still has that giddy feeling in her stomach, although she still canât tell if youâre actually into her or if you just wanna be friends. you did mention just friends earlier, but youâre also holding her hand sweetly in yours.
you donât know how to explain your feelings for abby. sheâs such a sweet girl, and sheâs a few years younger than you. you want her all to yourself, you want to take all of her pain and suffering away and start a family with her. you wanna run away with her and live in a small beach house together. but is that crazy? youâve only known her for about four months at this point, how long is too long to wait? how long is too short? you donât wanna overwhelm her, she just started a completely new life after escaping seattle where all of her friends and family were murdered in front of her. itâs obvious sheâs still grieving, missing the family she created and the life she had.
when you reach the top of the hill, you sit and dangle your feet off of the mini cliff, looking out at the horizon painted in front of you. abby takes a seat next to you, wrapping both of her hands around yours. you smile at her, proud of how far sheâs come ever since rolling in half-dead and practically fried. she looks human now, and she looks really⌠pretty.
âyou flatter me too much.â she says with a shy smile.
you groan. jesus christ, you need to stop thinking out loud before it kills you.
âsorry, i didnât mean to make things weird.â you cringe again.
âitâs not weird. i think youâre pretty too.â
your heart skips a beat at this. itâs too late, your habit of thinking out loud is about to kill you right now. because your lips are on abbyâs and youâre kissing her with all of your might. her lips taste like honey and coffee, a sweet mix of flavors that youâll crave for the rest of your life.
âis it weird that i just kissed my doctor?â she asks.
âiâm not your doctor. iâm the crazy person whoâs job was to watch you sleep in case you had seizures or heart attacks.â
she giggles at this, leaning in to capture your lips in another sweet kiss. you both stay there until sunset, giggling and kissing and chatting like little kids in love.
to your dismay, you get up and leave as soon as the sunset fades, not wanting to be stranded at sea in pitch black darkness. abby walks you home, arm thrown over your shoulders. you frown when you reach your own cabin, not wanting to leave her. âcan i see you tomorrow?â you ask, praying sheâll say yes.
âof course,â she says. âiâll be here.â
itâs impossible for you to sleep after the incredible day you just had. you keep licking your lips in hope that the honey-coffee taste will still be lingering, but itâs not. tomorrow canât come soon enough, and now you feel bad for teasing abby about her lack of sleep because you finally get it.
abby sleeps soundly tonight. all of her fears are dissolved floating away like ashes in the wind. she feels free. finally ready to start a new chapter of her life now that sheâs escaped the tragedies from seattle and the torture from santa barbara.
you wake up bright and early the next morning, showering and cooking and cleaning and dressing yourself as efficiently as you can. the excitement of seeing her again fuels your motivation, but once your whole lodge is spotless, itâs hard to find something to do with your energy. you sigh in relief when abby knocks on your door ten minutes early, her brain must be in sync with yours.
as you open the door, you practically jump into her arms. she pulls you in for a big bear hug, seeming to have missed you just as much as youâve missed her.
you have nothing planned, so you snack on a box of cookies while sitting in bed, staring out of the window that overlooks the ocean. itâs a gloomy day, but itâs nice to people watch and gossip about various things youâve heard through the grapevine.
after a while you get tired, and abby lets you rest your head on her shoulder in case you wanna fall asleep. you donât, though. no matter how heavy your eyelids get, you force yourself to enjoy every second that passes with her. well, there is something you wanna do with her, but youâre not too sure how she feels about it.
âabby? can i ask you another weird question?â
âalways.â she laughs.
âdo you wanna have sex with me?â
her heart thrums harder in her chest, and heat spreads from her cheeks to her ears.
âsorry, i shouldnât haââ
âyes.â she interrupts. âbut, iâ itâs been a while. iâm not very⌠i dunnoâŚâ
âif you donât want to itâs fine.â you assure her. âitâs also fine if you wanna just lay there and let me do the work, i donât mind.â
she nods at the second option, leaning back and throwing her shirt off while you do the same. her abdomen is less bloody and bruised than you remember, but you can still see her ribs and a few scars. she blushes when she catches you staring, leaning back timidly.
âdonât be nervous, abby. iâm a doctor, iâve seen bodies. especially yours, and i think youâre beautiful.â
she blushes harder at this, but laughs and says âi thought you were a creepy nurse who watches people sleep, not a doctor.â
you giggle and shut her up with a kiss, reaching down to unbutton her jeans. âcan i?â you ask.
âyes, please, fuck.â
as soon as you get her jeans down, you tug her boxers down too. sure you should wait, and it might be polite to engage in a little foreplay, but youâre craving her right now. her bush is curly in the center, right where is dripping wet, and she has a beautiful blonde happy trail that crawls all the way up to her belly button. sheâs so hot you might need an oxygen tank.
âthe quicker you stop staring and fuck me, the quicker we can get you that oxygen tank.â she laughs.
âoh god⌠i didnât mean to say that. again.â
you tug your own underwear off and sit your cunt right on top of hers. abby intertwines her legs with yours, and the angle lets you slide across her perfectly. âjesus christ.â she moans, currently unable to control the noises sheâs making.
sheâs so sensitive it drives you mad. the last time she hooked up with anyone was more than a year ago, and ever since then sheâs been prioritizing keeping herself alive over jacking off. whenever your clits bump, you feel a small, warm splash of her squirt against your cunt, and it makes you more aroused than youâve ever been.
it gets very messy very quickly. your lips crash together in a heated and very wet kiss, and your cunts are creating a pile of slick thatâs currently dripping down abbyâs ass and making a puddle on the bed. you canât tell if youâre dizzy because of your arousal, sleepiness, or love for her, but you feel like youâre on cloud nine.
abby cums after only a few minutes, and when she does she twitches and writhes and squeals so much you think you might have to sedate her. you keep grinding on her until you cum, which quickly overstimulates her even further until youâre almost positive sheâs blacked out or something.
when you come down from your own high, you scoot yourself off of her. two clear strings of slick connect you to her, but eventually break and drip down onto the bed. she sighs when you lay next to her.
âwas that good?â you ask.
âfuck. i think i need the oxygen mask more than you do.â she pants. you laugh and wrap your arms around her, ready to get a few minutes of cuddling in before you force your aftercare routine upon her.
she sighs. âthanks for taking care of me.â
âyou know iâll always take care of you, abby. right? just because iâm not your nurse anymore doesnât mean i donât love you anymore.â
âyou love me?â
âever since the day i met you.â
