Yellow - Drake x Riley (TRR Fandom) NSFW, 18+

Day 3 of @choicesjunechallenge2021 - Yellow

Fandom: TRR

Pairing: Drake Walker and Riley Brooks

Summary: Riley loses a bet to her friend, Olivia. Though Riley thinks it’s a loss, it turns out a win in the end.

WARNINGS: SUPER NSFW, smutty smut smut, 18+ only please!!!!

Riley tapped her pen against the table as she waited for her almost-always late husband to arrive to the Royal Council meeting. Olivia looked over at Riley, giving her devilish grin. “You know I’m right, Riley.”

Riley had left Valtoria earlier that morning due to other errands and meetings to take care of throughout the capital. Drake was promised that he wouldn’t have to tag along since he worked late last night, but not to be late to their weekly meeting with Liam and the other members.

“Let’s make a deal - he’s on time, and you get to torture me however you want. He’s not, then I get the pleasure.” Olivia said, crossing her legs under her red skirt. “It’s a deal.” Riley stuck out her freshly manicures hand and met Olivia’s with a quick shake. Though things had started off nasty between them, they had became quite the dynamic duo. Olivia would almost, just almost, go about calling them the best of friends.

As the clock ticked closer to one, Riley found herself rolling her eyes. She knew good and well Olivia was about to win this one over her. Once the clock strikes one, Olivia let out a small “booyah!” before Liam walked in. 1:05pm, 4 minutes after Liam had began the meeting, Drake walked through the door and took a seat next to his wife. Riley glanced over to him, giving him a look. Though Drake had a way with his looks, Riley wasn’t letting him off the chain.

Once the meeting was over, Riley turned to Drake. “Ehem?” “I know, babe, I left just a couple of minutes too late. It won’t happen again.” Drake said with a pleading face. “Doubt that, brother. I can always depend on you being late.” Liam walked over to his best friend, grasping his hand and pulling him into a hug. “But I’m here!” Drake argued. “Very true, I can’t say that you haven’t been.”

As the conversations continue, Olivia hinted that it was time for punishment. “I’m going to hang out with Livvie.” Riley stood to her tippytoes to kiss Drake before they headed off. “So what’s my punishment?” “Oh you’ll see.”

——————

The lavished boutique downtown was fully furnished and ready to be scavenged through by Olivia. Security standing firmly outside, Olivia took her time while Riley sat in the corner. “I thought this was supposed to be punishment.” Riley said, observing the fine lingerie that was lined up and down the walls and racks. “It’s going to be, Riley.” Riley sat questioningly as she continued to slam each article against one another.

Moments later, a gasp escaped Olivia’s lips with an evil laugh. “This is the one.” Olivia pulled out probably the most hideous piece of lingerie she’d ever seen. Riley could only agree as the disgust rode up her face with no filter. “What the hell is that?” Riley asked. “Your new sex piece.”

Riley observed the bright yellow body suit. It was lacy and completely see through. Though Riley could only attempt to imagine how cute it would’ve been if it weren’t for some of the designs, the plastered cheap looking flowers made out of tethered material was plastered all over in different colors. Dark blue, hot pink, even lime green. “Are you kidding me?” Riley asked.

Before Olivia answered, she was making her way to the counter. “Nope, and you best believe i’m asking Drake Walker if you used it.” Riley jokingly gagged as she handed the paid for piece to her. “Is it really a punishment, Riley? Drake probably won’t even notice.”

——————

Riley laid in bed, her silk white robe tied securely around her and the piece that Olivia had picked out. Her once pinned up hair was now down in loose messy waves, glasses pushed up to her face as she read the book that had been laying on her bedside table.

She heard the bedroom door creak open, revealing a very tired husband. Drake’s tie was loosely hanging from his neck, shirt untucked, belt undone. “Long day?” “Unbelievably.”

Drake flopped down on the bed next to Riley with his eyes shut but lips puckered. Riley giggled as she laid the book down and leaned over the kiss him. “I never thought the meetings would end, I’m too tired to even undress myself right now.”

“Let me help you, baby.” Riley straddled her husband as he placed his hands securely on her hips, then moved up and down her thighs. “You don’t have to, love, but I’m definitely not opposed to you sitting on me like this.” Drake grinned with his eyes still shut.

Riley started with untying the rest loose knot on his tie and tossing it to the side before slowly unbuttoning his white dress shirt. Revealing a white tank top, Riley urged him to sit up so that she could briskly take it off. As she pulled the tank top over his body, she couldn’t help but to admire her husband, just as she always did. His toned chest was rising slowly as he laid back. His tanned biceps flexed as he continued to rub up and down her thighs.

Riley took her hands, lightly scratching down his chest causing goosebumps to appear on his arms. Her hands made it down to his pants, where the belt was already undone. Unbuttoning and unzipping slowly, Riley grazed over the thin fabric that covered his rising length. Riley grinned at the fact that she had so much control over these moments.

Drake assisted with kicking his pants off to the side as Riley moved next to his legs and softly massaged each thigh. “Mm, that feels good.”

Drake watched as Riley threw her thick hair back behind her shoulder. Moving back up, her tongue connected with his chest, licking down his torso, right to the waistband of her underwear.

Riley rugged softly on his underwear, bringing them down to show an already growing length. “I love that I do this to you.” Riley traced her finger around Drake’s stomach until she finally curled her fingers around his cock. Drake’s breath hitched quickly as he shuddered under her touch.

Riley’s tongue started at the base all the way to the tip before wrapping her mouth around his dick, slowly bobbing up and down. “Fuck, baby.” Drake whispered in a breathless tone.

As Riley grazed her nails over his thighs, Drake pushed her head up. “Baby, I want to finish somewhere else.” Riley grinned before standing up. “Let me see what’s underneath that robe.”

Riley almost busted out laughing when she slowly untied the front of her silk robe. Drake watched anxiously, propped up on his elbows with his lip in between his teeth. As the robe fell in a pool below her, Drake’s eyes went from wide open to squinting with question. “Yellow?” Laughter erupted from Riley. “And all of these pretty colorful flowers? Don’t you love it, Mr. Walker?” Drake shook his head and laughed. “You can say no, I lost a bet thanks to you and now I’m being forced to wear this by Olivia.”

Drake stood up, head still shaking before he grabbed Riley’s hips, pulling her roughly into his body. His hands caressed every curve, every inch of her skin that he was able to, before leaning down to her ear. “It doesn’t matter, because I’m going to tear this fucking thing off anyway.”

Before Riley could respond, Drake was briskly taking off the undesirable lingerie. “You could be wearing a paper bag and you would still have me begging for you, worshipping you.” His stubbled chin grazed Riley ear, causing goosebumps to appear.

Next thing Riley knew, she was being backed into the bed, until it hit the back of her knees, causing her to fall back. “What does my baby want?” Drake said, slowly bringing his fingertips to her wet core before sliding one in. Riley audibly gasped, arching up into his touch. “You, Drake.” With a devilish grin, he licked his fingers before placing himself at her center, slowly entering. Riley let out a deep sigh as he entered, she held onto him as she stretched around his thickness.

Drake took his chance to place his arm behind Riley as he slammed into her. In sync, their bodies moved fiercely together, nothing but the sound of skin hitting each other and the moans coming from each of them, as if they were speaking their own language. “I’m about to come undone.” Drake grunted. “I want you to cum for me.” Riley demanded, scratching his back, begging for me.

The final strokes became sloppy as Drake emptied himself into his wife. His moan filled the room as Riley tightened around him with her own undoing. Drake kept his eyes closed for a moment before rolling off of Riley, laying next to her. Drake pulled Riley against his sweaty body, breathing heavily. Neither said a word for moments as they both pulled themselves together. “You know, I don’t mind the yellow if I get to rip it off of you that fast again.”

Waiting

[Bryce Lahela x Olivia Hadley Masterlist]

Pairing: Bryce Lahela x Olivia Hadley (OC) Book: Open Heart  Rating: General *Fluff* Word Count: ~500

Synopsis: The moment Bryce and Olivia have been waiting for is finally here and they’re more nervous than they expected.

Prompts: @choicesjunechallenge2021 : long drive

Thoughts of him often brought butterflies to her stomach, but today their graceful flutter turned frenzied. Olivia swallowed, focusing her breathing as she looked out the window. The joyful sound of her friends' chatter felt distant, drowned out by the drumming of her heart. She slowly spun her engagement ring around her finger, counting the seconds that passed, willing the seemingly never-ending drive to come to a conclusion. Time slowed with each passing moment, despite the fact that her breathing, like her heartbeat, increased rapidly. She didn't have any regrets or cold feet, and yet, her body shook with nerves she couldn't quell. She bit her lip and closed her eyes, imaging the soft sounds of the crashing waves that would greet her when they arrived. Her smile grew; the sea would wait for its appreciation. There was only one thing she'd set her eyes on when she walked down the path to the water, and it wasn't the horizon. He was her light, her warmth, and her sun. Soon, he would be her forever, too.

His typically steady hands shook as the car continued. It wasn't a long drive, but the minutes passed like hours. Thoughts of her filled his vision. Bryce drummed his fingers against his bouncing knees. He hated sitting still; he wasn't good at it. He tried to calm his racing mind by running through surgical procedures, but what typically came easy escaped him now. He ran his clammy hands through his hair. They had been planning this day for over a year. He couldn't believe it was finally here. He closed his eyes, feeling the cool ocean breeze on his cheeks, letting the scent of the salty sea soothe him. Soon, they would arrive, and the ocean, which had held more beauty than he ever dared dream to see, would pale in comparison to her radiance. She was his calm now, his hope, and his center—the only thing he needed. His grin grew as they neared the beach where the ceremony would be held.

Their friends fussed over their every movement, showering them with compliments and congratulations. Photos captured all the small moments that they would treasure forever. But for each, there was one thing missing—the only thing that mattered.

They went through the motions with eager anticipation, waiting to be together. The bridesmaids took their place, and the music played. One by one, they walked in time to the melody. Neither Bryce nor Olivia noticed them. Their hearts raced faster than they ever thought possible; the moment was finally here.

Olivia took her first anxious step forward, breathing in deeply as she looked down the aisle. When their eyes met, everything calmed. For one glorious moment, time stood still, the waves failed to crash, and the wind ceased its call. The world around them faded, and it was just the two of them. Their pulsing hearts quieted, beating in time together. Memories of their life together flooded through their minds, their eyes filling with unshed tears. Their life had been filled with more love than they thought possible. And now, a lifetime of love was waiting, calling them home to each other.

Pain + Pleasure

[Thomas Hunt x Alex Spencer Masterlists] [Hollywood U]

Pairing: Alex x Thomas Hunt Book: Hollywood U   Word Count: ~1,350 Prompts:  @choicesjunechallenge2021​ “umbrella” (I used the word in the fic, but that’s about it)

A/N: This is a repost of astory I wrote early on and was too nervous/😳 about its content to actually use tags or promote it. I decided to remedy that now. However, I don’t think it fits the Alex and Thomas I’ve developed over the past few years in my RCD universe, so I’m “recategorizing” it as Hollywood U. I think it fits their relational dynamic a lot more. I didn’t really change the story, I just changed “Thomas” to “Hunt since that’s how I distinguish their two AUs. (For the longest time, I didn’t even realize I did that and it’s been so long since I wrote HWU that it feels weird now.)

Synopsis: Hunt is stressed so he and Alex engage in a little impact play.

Rating/TW: Explicit: 18+ only. By clicking “Keep Reading” you agree to be of legal age. Please don’t read if under 18 or uncomfortable with sex or any of the following warnings. Story includes descriptions of spanking, bdsm, dom/sub, fingering, and penetrative sex.

Hunt kissed her softly, his thumb caressing her cheek as he held her face tenderly. “I don’t enjoy causing you pain,” he whispered, his voice low and tender. His forehead pressed to hers.

“It’s okay,” Alex reassured him. She kissed him once more, letting it linger, before taking a step back, waiting. What was coming would hurt but that didn’t mean she didn’t enjoy it. Plus, he had been stressed lately, and this always helped him reset.

“Safe word?” he questioned. 

“Umbrella, sir” she offered with a smile. 

He cradled her face in his hands once more. "I love you."

"I love you, too, Thomas."

Hunt nodded and made his way toward the bed. He slipped off his tweed jacket, draping it lightly over the edge. Turning back to her, he unbuttoned his shirt sleeves, rolling them up to his elbow. He positioned himself on the edge of the bed. With legs spread, he tapped his hand against his thigh, ushering her forward.

Alex went willingly, keeping her head down as expected. She knew the consequences of disobeying. She stopped in front of him, waiting for the next direction. 

His fingers traveled up the inside of her thigh. He smirked as he rubbed his hand over her warmth, listening to make sure she didn't make a sound. Quickly, he ripped down her underwear. 

“You remember the rules?” Hunt stated more than asked. “No talking unless spoken to. No making noises of any kind. No moving, which includes squirming. You are mine to do with as I please. Nod once if I make myself clear.”

Alex did as directed and let her head hang low as she continued looking down in submission. 

Hunt closed the gap between his legs and tapped once more. Alex took her spot across his lap, bending over him to ensure he had ample access. 

His hand caressed her plump bottom as he pushed the skirt of her dress up until it pooled around her midsection. His fingers lingered for a moment on her newly exposed skin before swiftly moving back and returning with a soft swat. 

“One.” Alex counted in her head each time his hand landed on her. “Five. Six. Seven…”

“Not so bad,” she thought, though she knew this was just the warm-up. The pleasant sting was satisfying but, he was holding back. This was just the beginning. “Ten.”

Hunt paused, letting Alex relax. Her skin had begun to pinken beneath his touch. Lightly, he caressed the area, the pads of his fingers pressing teasingly into her tender skin.

The contrast in touch was stimulating. Alex tried to stifle the quiet moan rising in her throat, but it was too late. He felt so good.

Hunt’s hand landed on her once more with a loud thwack. This one was much harder.

“No noise," he hissed. His hand rained down on her in rapid succession, causing her to whimper in surprise. 

Alex was grateful that the sound of his hand on her flesh overshadowed the soft cry. Dizzy from the pain, but longing for more of him, she lost count of how many times he spanked her before returning once again to carefully massaging the area. She was cautious not to make noise this time. Instead, she focused on the feel of his hardening desire pressing against her as she remained across his lap. 

His hand wandered down the curve of her bottom between her legs. His fingers dipped between her folds, relishing how wet she already was for him. 

“You could have anyone, yet here you are, salivating over me,” Hunt boasted, fingering her lightly. “You like this, don’t you? You like when I show you that you’re mine.”

“Yes, sir. I do.” 

“What do you say then?” 

“Thank you, sir.”

“Good girl.” He inserted another finger, pressing deeper in reward. 

Alex bit her tongue, trying not to make a sound as he teased her. She closed her eyes, savoring the delicious warmth spreading over her at his attention. She wanted more—needed it.

His fingers pumped within her, building a steady but torturously slow rhythm. His thumb circled her swollen clit several times before brushing over it directly.

A wave of electricity surged through her body; sparks of desire alighted every inch. Alex controlled her moan but, her body naturally rocked into his touch. 

“I did not tell you that you could move,” Hunt warned. 

She could hear the smirk in his tone. Quickly, he removed his fingers and spanked her again. Each point of contact became harder and more forceful. Her raw skin stung. She felt his muscles tensing. Tears filled her eyes; the pain grew as her skin became redder. Her body flooded with crashing waves of pain and pleasure; it was a delicious storm that enraptured her senses.

“Who do you belong to?” Hunt questioned. He paused but hearing no reply, he spanked her again. “Answer me!”

“You,” Alex cried out with a moan. “You, sir. I belong to you.”

Hunt’s hand landed once more. It sent a stinging sensation jolting through her core. She would be feeling it for some time. “Remember that!” 

"Yes, sir," she managed to reply.

Carefully, Hunt slid her off of his lap, holding onto her to make sure she could stand on her own. "Are you alright, my love?"

She nodded, "Yes, sir."

"Arms up then, sweetheart." 

She followed his directions, and he slid her dress over her head, removing her bra afterward. He took her hand and guided her to the bed. They weren't done yet. 

Alex sat on the edge of the bed, taking a moment to catch her breath. Her gaze remained downward, knowing she didn't have permission to look at him yet. She listened as he unzipped his pants, and they fell to the floor. 

He returned, gently spreading her legs with his knee. His finger curled under her chin, lifting her face to him. "Look at me, beautiful."

She raised her head slowly, trying to hide the tears she had shed and those that had yet to fall.

"Come here, my Alex." He pulled her into his arms, hugging her to him. His hand massaged her back, reassuring and comforting her. "You're beautiful, my sweet girl. Just perfect. You did well. I'm proud of you."

Alex buried her head in his chest as he held her securely. She couldn't help but let the remaining tears fall.

He felt his shirt dampen as the fabric dried her tears. Hunt kissed the top of her head, his fingers stroking her hair. "I've got you, my love. I'm right here."

After a few minutes, Alex scooted back onto the bed, signaling she was ready to continue. 

Hunt climbed on top of her. Not wasting a second, his lips crashed onto hers. He kissed her over and over; his mouth moved over her jaw and down her throat. He wanted all of her. His hand cupped her breast, and he gave her a gentle squeeze. Her moan was quieted as his lips found hers once more. 

He stroked his hardened length before sinking deep within her. Her back arched pleasantly at the intrusion. 

He gave her little time to adjust, their bodies quickly falling into a comfortable rhythm. His focus remained on her the entire time. He couldn't take his eyes off of her. She looked so beautiful; she always did. But, at this moment, looking like that—his body raged with burning desire spurring him faster—she was his and his alone, no one else’s. And to his content, he was also hers. It was just the two of them. The world around them didn’t exist, and it didn't need to. They belonged to one another alone.

As ecstasy of their pleasure peaked and washed over them, Hunt wrapped his arms around Alex, guiding her into him. She snuggled into his strong embrace. 

As they laid together catching their breath, Hunt painted feathery-light kisses across her skin. Alex had lost count of the kisses much like the spanks, but knowing him, there would be at least as many kisses (usually more). He never lost count of either. She let him support her, her body still trembling from the intensity of their play. Her eyes closed as she focused on the heat of his breath and his soft lips covering her. This would always be her favorite part.

the color of joy

Pairing: Bryce Lahela x F!MC (Alessia Lyxienne)

Book: Open Heart

Rating: G (super fluffy and domestic)

Word count: 731

Summary: A yellow themed surprise for Bryce.

Prompts: @choicesjunechallenge2021 ; Day 3 - yellow.

A/N: Day 3 out of 5 hopefully for the streak! We are saying goodbye to Bryce soon, and well - this is a fluffy domestic ones of them both. I headcanon they would definitely have a family of their own and this is apart of the imagine i had. A huuuuge shoutout and thanks to @appiomofchoice again <33 enjoy!

Yellow symbolizes the joy in one’s life. The joy of chasing a dream, or something simple as the joy of being with the person you love. The life that they lived was a mix of all the colors in one – they were the redness of anger, the blues of sadness and grief that followed in their life, the green of healing and there is the yellow indicates the color of happiness and joy. Today is a yellow for them both; where it was filled with smiles and tears.

Joy – it’s the joy when she finds out about their new addition. The joy that came through from the silent prayers that we make every day. The dream where a family of three, with the love of her life – once upon a time was only a couple of teasing words, as it meshed together with a promise. As the day has come – as the signs all were the same. The two lines were the beginning of their life, the beginning of their happily ever after as the silent tears makes up for the last years they have been trying.

She walked out of the room, a wide smile as the tears were still falling from happiness. It was their dream – they talked about family before, when the time is right. It felt right at the moment, they were successful doctors, they have everything that ever dreamed of, and today; a new dream was filled. A new dream for one Bryce Lahela and Alessia Lyxienne.

-

A yellow (fake) sunflower, a note, and a onesie awaited him in the box. She smiles, preparing everything before he came back.

She was awoken by a pair of arms around her waist, as the sun blares across the curtains a sign of a new day. A new beginning, as she turns her way to face him. He is sound asleep, as she placed a kiss on his temple, as his eyes started to open meeting hers.

“Morning sleepyhead.”

“Morning.” He replies with a smile on his face, as he tugs her closer – not wanting to let it go yet.

They spend a couple more minutes with one another company before Alessia stood up leaving him on his own on the bed.

“Are you coming?” She called for him, as he stood up following her lead.

They did get ready for the day, as it was a free day for them. She slipped onto a yellow dress from her closet which is somehow perfect for the occasion.

-

Bryce was in the kitchen, fetching them breakfast – as he has mastered his cooking from before, with a lot of Bryce specials in their home. She smiles over the scent of breakfast that filled her nostrils, with the box in hand and the sunflower in the other.

As the meal was presented, his eyes met with hers. He was entranced, as she looks beautiful in the dress from their honeymoon two years ago.

“Woah, you look very very beautiful.” He places his arms around her waist, as she returns with a wide smile.

“Why thank you, it's part of the surprise after all.” She places a kiss on his cheek before passing the sunflower to him before placing the yellow box in his hands.

-

He raised an eyebrow at the sudden surprise, as the box was opened. It was a small box, and he took out the contents.

She places her hands on his shoulder, peeking from the back – a wide smile on her face.

It’s a onesie, a yellow one – with a pattern of bees and flowers. It took a few moments for him to piece it all together, but the knowing smile on her face says it all.

There were no words exchanged, as the nod from her says everything he needs to know. In an instant, she was covered with kisses – as he pulls her into a tight embrace, feeling the tears fallen from both of their eyes. It's one of those moments where there were only silent thoughts whirling in their heads both filled with happiness and joy at once – all 171,476 words in the dictionary itself cant express how they felt in the moment.

It's their dream for the past few years, and here they are. A yellow sunflower, a yellow onesie – the beginning of their new journey together as a family of three.

Yeh Dooriyan ~ These Distances

Pairing : Dr. Ethan Ramsey x f!MC (Dr. Meera Bose)                                            Summary : Set after five years from OH3. Tired by Ethan's lack of commitment Meera had deliberately decided on taking her career as far as she could from Boston. But what happens when she meets him unexpectedly, and how much has her life changed in the past years?     Category : Angst                                                       Warnings : Nothing that I can remember of. Ratings : Teen       Word Count : 2498

A/N : I was tired of the OH3 shit show and had started writing this. Because if Rethan Amsey was the original Ethan Ramsey, no doubt Meera would end up doing this. But I stopped writing this after the finale because we did get an ily. But then I started again to submit this as my oph surgery (@openheartfanfics ) this is also my submission for @choicesjunechallenge2021 Day 13 : Nightmares.

A/N 2 : The title is inspired from the Mohit Chauhan song Yeh Dooriyan. I have also included it's lyrics in the fic, that will appear in italics. For non hindi speakers I have tried and translated the lyrics to English that will appear in brackets. Hope it helps. I am linking the song below, because there is a chance you feel like listening to this after reading the fic.

Happy Reading Guys! 💕

She had to leave, she absolutely had to. Meera's eyes gleamed, almost at the verge of tears when she realised that these two situations five years apart were so similar yet so different. She hastily got into her designated Porsche, wanting to get away from the venue as soon as she could, as fast as she could.

An upbeat song was playing from the music system. Not feeling the song or the vibe she asked for the music to be changed, almost shouting. The elderly chauffeur fumbled with the buttons and to her surprise one of her favourite bollywood song started playing.

A bollywood song in Germany? She thought to herself but asked the chauffeur to let the song play.

Kyun koi paas hai.

(Why is someone near)

Door hai kyun koi.

(and someone else is far)

Jaane na koi yahan pe.

(No one here knows the reason behind this)

The lyrics took her back five years, a sunny day in Boston.

Meera was tired. She was tired of going after Ethan for three long years. Being the clear headed straight forward woman that she is, Meera was clear from their first kiss in Miami. But she was ready to give Ethan time until he was ready to commit.

But Ethan neither worked towards making amends nor did he try to make their relationship better. When he ran off to Amazon, Meera still decided on giving more time, but a near death experience couldn't make him say the three words.

In her last year of residency she stayed beside Ethan as he fought through the malicious plans of Bloom. She was there with her at the ethics hearing but Ethan didn't even feel like thanking her, and ofcourse not saying the words she was longing to hear for so long.

Rather he threatened to forget all of their personal and professional relations. Meera expected him to wish her good luck for her boards if not as her partner but atleast as her mentor but Ethan was unable to fulfil that expectation too.

Meera often had mental breakdowns thinking about her future and whether this relationship had any chance in the days ahead. But she was clear on one thing, she could very clearly feel that she was no longer needed or wanted in Dr. Ethan Ramsey's life.

Meera contemplated, going over her offer letters again and again. She had received offers from the top hospitals all over the world. Five to be exact, excluding Edenbrook which she would have happily called her home if it wasn't for one grumpy doctor.

Finally she decided on the farthest one from Boston, from Edenbrook, from Ethan. She wrote down an acceptance letter to the Singapore General Hospital as tears rolled down her cheeks. She had to leave, she absolutely had to.

Aa raha paas ya door mein ja raha

(Am I coming near or am I drifting away)

Janu na mein hoon kahan pe

(I don't know where I'm)

The song continued on the music system. Meera now feeling tipsy from the couple flutes of champagne that she had. Her makeup now smudged by tears.

She drifted into another memory as the song continued.

Kabhi hua yeh bhi

(This happened sometime)

Khali rahon pe bhi

Tu tha mere saath

(You were there with me on empty roads)

Meera had gone back to India for a short while before joining at the new hospital. It was her cousin's wedding and all the aunties could only talk about all the eligible bachelors they had, that would be perfect for Meera.

Meera mostly smiled and ignored them as much as she could. Exhausted she made a beeline for the bar hoping to get a breather. There she met Siddharth.

A fine handsome man who had offered his assistance when Meera had drunk too much of her sorrows. The next morning after she found out that he had literally carried her to her hotel room, she felt embarrassed and the need to apologise to him.

When sober Meera had a proper look at Siddharth she couldn't help but feel a heat rising to her cheeks. To make it up to him Siddharth had asked her out, and Meera definitely wasn't going to say no.

They got to talking and she found out that their dads were actually pretty good friends. Siddharth was a junior manager at Bank of Singapore and was living there for around four years. He offered to show Meera around and she was happy to have a friend in an unknown country.

Six months into their friendship they slept for the first time together. Meera just needed a fling, anything to take her mind off anything she had left back at Boston. But it wasn't wise of her to turn the only friend in a new country into a one night stand.

Siddharth clearly started having feelings for her and to avoid the awkwardness Meera decided on dating him. So what had just started as a rebound to Meera quickly escalated to marriage. Mostly because of outside pressures from their parents who were elated to know that they had started dating each other.

Meera decided to make this marriage work because otherwise it was going to be unfair to Siddharth and she couldn't let that happen. But how could she when that one attending haunted her every night.

She might have kept no contact with him but she followed medical journals and tabloids to try and keep an eye on him. Last she had read that the famous Dr. Ethan Ramsey was thinking about an early retirement.

As tears stained her cheek she hugged her tablet close, moving her fingers over the Dr.'s features one last time before promising to cut off all remaining ties with him. Siddharth had proposed to her when they were dating for a year and a half. Within a year they were married.

She was going to give her hundred percent to this marriage because Dr. Ramsey had his chance and he missed it, but now it was time to have the happy ending she deserved. This is what she told herself before walking down the aisle.

Kabhi tujhe milke lauta

(Sometimes after meeting you)

Mera dil yeh khali khali haath

(My heart came back empty handed)

Yeh bhi hua kabhi

(This happened sometimes)

Jaise hua aabhi

(Like it happened now)

Tujhko sabhi mein paa liya

(I found you in everything around me)

The tears in her eyes had now dried up. Meera just sat beside the window, watching the beautiful Germany citylights woosh by. She felt suffocated in her custom made Carolina Herrera deep blue gown and Gucci stilettos. Deep blue a colour she had started loving since an unfortunate kiss in Miami, which now felt like ages ago to her.

Tera mujhe kar jaati hai dooriyan

(These distances make me yours)

Satati hain dooriyan

(These distances torment me)

Tarsati hain dooriyan

(These distances make me yearn)

Fanah ho sabhi dooriyan

(May all these distances end)

Life in Singapore was going great for Meera. She had started making great progress in her career, slowly but steadily climbing the ladder of hierarchy to the top of the hospital.

She had a lovely husband by her side. Over the years she had really started falling for Siddharth and they really made an impeccable couple.

But the problems started two years into their marriage when Meera became a little too successful for Siddharth to handle. He started becoming insecure, often arguing why Meera had to go on night shifts and accusing her of other affairs.

They started arguing on the smallest matter, and the only way to stop arguing was hate fucking each other. The relationship grew extremely toxic. Meera tried to give her everything, she tried innumerable times to make Siddharth understand how important her job was but he just wasn't ready to listen and accept.

On their second anniversary Meera decided to go all out. She took a day off from the hospital and cooked for Siddharth all day, making all of his favourite delicacies. In the evening Meera changed into a sultry lace gown with candles and food ready for her husband.

But he didn't show up, instead a package arrived in the mail which contained their divorce papers and a note. The note said he would accept her only if she decided on giving up her career and job.

Meera broke down again the words of a Boston attending coming to haunt her after all these years. "I need to be able to push you to your limits. To help you become the doctor you want to be. The one I know you can be."

She signed on the divorce paper and cried herself to sleep that night. The next morning she packed her things from the apartment and moved into an Air BnB until she found a better place.

The invitation to the medical conference and award ceremony came as a blessing in disguise to Meera. She actually hadn't been on a vacation since her honeymoon because of her busy schedule and she had rejected lots of conferences like this to spend more time with her ex husband.

But now two weeks after divorce she felt like a free bird and Germany sounded absolutely perfect. She had to leave, she absolutely had to.

Kaha bhi na mene

(I didn't even say that)

Nahi jeena mene

(I don't want to live)

Tu jo na mila

( If I don't have you)

The song continued as if telling the story of her life. Meera couldn't believe what happened at the award ceremony today. Never in her life did she think of meeting this familiar face again.

Tujhe bhule se bhi na

(Even by mistake)

Bola na mene chahun fasla

(I didn't say that I wanted this separation)

Bas fasla rahein

(Now this separation remains)

Ban ke kasak jo kahen

(Becoming a pain)

Ho aur chahat yeh aur jawan

(And it's saying, may our love always be young)

Meera landed in Germany two days prior to the conference. Breathing in the crisp autumn air she felt at peace after a very long time. She had two days of time to explore and enjoy herself and she fully utilised it.

The morning of the conference, the organising committee had asked her to do the honour of presenting the award to the doctor for his lifetime service in the field of medicine.

Meera was thrilled and was thankful she had her custom made gown. She decided to look her very best that day. As she got down from her designated Porsche and walked into the venue she turned a lot of heads.

Some of the young doctors even approached her for small talk, but Meera was done with men. She was just here to enjoy herself.

Many awards later Meera was ushured to the backstage and handed an envelope. After announcing the category and her name Meera strode onto the stage head held high, heels tapping on the stage.

"Good evening ladies and gentlemen, it's an honour for me to present this prestigious award for lifetime service in the field of medicine to----" Meera paused opening the envelope.

She froze as soon as she read the name inside the envelope. No this can't happen, this is a dream, a nightmare. But she had to continue despite the tumult that her heart is going into.

"----Dr. Ethan Ramsey." Meera said, forcing a smile with all her might. She was saying this name aloud after half a decade and still couldn't believe all of this was really happening.

Meera looked into the audience hoping the absence of the winner, atleast the Ethan she knew wouldn't be willing to be there socialising with a bunch of people he didn't even like.

But five years is a lot of time and people do change so she saw the blue eyed doctor stand from his table at the back and make his way towards the stage.

She was ready with the award in her hand, her heart doing plunges at 150 beats per minute, seeing this man after so many years.

As he came closer, Meera could tell he hadn't aged at all since she had left him in Boston. Although it did seem like he didn't sleep well. Few rough nights Meera thought, or weeks, or maybe years, who knows. The blue eyes stared back into her browns as he took his place beside her.

The cheers and claps from the audience dying down and all Meera could see was the lips of her former boyfriend and how she had missed kissing him. Their fingers brush ever so slightly while handing over the award and Meera feeling goosebumps right away.

Accepting the award, Dr. Ramsey began, "Good evening ladies and gentlemen. I haven't been a fan of awards like this before, but I have been attending all the medical conferences for the last five years because of a very important reason, and today the reason is fulfilled."

He stopped glancing at Meera, who was still in shock to be within feets of him. "Long time back I had said to one of my interns, 'Being a doctor means you always lose in the end,' and surprisingly I did win professionally but I lost in my personal life. But today I am happy to accept this award and moreover, happy to accept it from Dr. Bose one of the brightest doctors in her generation," Ethan offered her a smile that quite didn't reach his eyes.

Meera felt like although Ethan was addressing the entire audience, the words were actually for her. As soon as the audience began to applaud it was their cue to exit the stage but for Meera it was her cue to flee. She didn't waste a single minute. Making her way out of the venue. She stopped for picking up two flutes of champagne downing them in one go.

She walked as fast as her pencil heel shoes could carry her. Hastily getting into her designated Porsche. She had to leave, she absolutely had to.

Teri meri mit jaani hai dooriyan

(These distances between us will end)

Begani hai dooriyan

(These distances are strange)

Hat jani dooriyan

(These distances will go away)

Fanah ho sabhi dooriyan

(May all these distances end)

The song ended so did Meera's story and her journey from the venue to her hotel. She made her way to the elevator and her room, getting rid of her gown and getting into her pajamas at once.

Next she opened her laptop looking for the earliest ticket to Singapore. Irrespective of the price she booked the earliest she could.

Meera didn't think she could sleep that night but exhaustion and alcohol had other plans for her body. She cried herself to sleep once again, having all these emotions and feelings which she didn't know how to control. But she knew she had to leave, she absolutely had to.

Thank you so much if you have read till here, it means the world to me. Hope to see you go on other different adventures with me, Ethan and Meera, till then sending love and hugs your way! ❤️

Blades AU Drabble - Tyril x Raine

@choicesjunechallenge2021 Day Two (Cappuccinos).

A gift for @lxdy-starfury because her coffee shop AU lives rent free in my silly little brain. And she blessed me with all the freakin gorgeous Tyril art to see me through until the day Blades 2 appears. (Couldn’t remember your MC’s name so went canon name. Let me know what it is and I’ll switch it up.)

This is late and hasty and well, whatever. *throws it at y’all and runs*

Warnings & A/N: don’t think there are any warnings. Only thing I’d note is that this is an AU if that wasn’t obvious already.

The sunlight warms her back as she sips lazily on her drink. The frothy cream a pleasant contrast to the bitter beans. Laying her book down on the table she cups the drink in both hands enjoying the warmth as she scans the other patrons in the cafe. Her eye catching one in particular a few tables away as he hastily averts his piercing gaze from hers.

She smiles as she dips her head back to her book. Stealing occasional peeks from the corner of her eye to catch him watching at her again and again. She wasn’t quite sure what to make of it. If his face wasn’t set in such a scowl she’d have thought he simply found her attractive but it didn’t appear to be that sort of interest.

As she dared to take a closer look, his eyes snapped back to his work before him. His long, slender fingers gracefully, albeit angrily, stabbed at the keys of his laptop. Harder and harder, as his frustration seemed to get the better of him and he abruptly stood, his chair screeching back, gaining curious glances from most of the place, as he shoved his belonging into his pack and made his angry exit. Sparing one last glare over his shoulders at her. 

She shook her head, chuckling at him and wondering what she had so clearly done to upset the handsome stranger so. She shared a few confused shrugs and small smiles with some others in the cafe before turning back to her book and forgetting the whole incident until a few days later.

The sunlight once again warming her back as she sipped her favorite drink and read yet another book in the quiet corner of her now favorite shop. As she looked around at the peaceful setting she saw him standing just inside the doorway looking at her with an intensity that made her shiver. 

He couldn’t believe it. She was here. Again. Sitting in his spot. The spot that was offered the perfect vantage point. It was tucked away among a few plants, right against the window, and offered him a full unobstructed view of the cafe. Allowing him to people watch when the mood struck. Not only that but it allowed him an increase in his productivity. Without the distractions of others trying to make small talk or jostle him about or make annoying noises, he got so much more work done. And she was ruining it all.

With a huff, he approached the counter and ordered his drink, hoping against hope that she would vacate the premises by the time his order was in hand. Turning a few minutes later, he discovered he was not so lucky and he fought to control his frustration as he picked a different table to work at. Again. 

It wasn’t fair of her. No. It wasn’t fair of him. How was she to know it was his spot? How was she to know that her mere presence both in his spot and in this cafe distracted him beyond measure? She wasn’t. So it wasn’t fair of him to be angry about it and it certainly wouldn’t help him get any work done. So he resigned himself to his fate and got to work. Or, well, at least he tried until he felt her before him and watched in horror as she dropped into the seat opposite his own.

He couldn’t help the bitterness that laced his single word, “What?”

"What?” her laugh was light and her eyes danced with amusement at his pinched face and angry word. 

“You are asking me what, when you are the one that question should clearly be asked of?”

Again her laughter. It grated on him and soothed him at the same time and he hated it.

“You came over here and interrupted me. So I will repeat my question and give you a second opportunity to not be rude. What do you want?”

Ah, one of those, she thought as she took in his sharply dressed appearance and expensive clothing and air of superiority and entitlement. The tiny cup of straight espresso should have tipped her off from the start and she couldn’t help the amused giggle that escaped her lips.

“Well, your majesty, I was simply wondering what I had done to offend your magnificent self so. Your stares and daggers have wounded me so.” She placed a hand in mock injury to her chest and put on her best pout, “I feel I am being unjustly treated.”

He narrowed his eyes at her ridiculous reaction and words and watched her smirk grow.

"I have done nothing of the sort,” he scoffed.

"Oh please!” her grin morphed into the most innocent of smiles, “I have clearly angered you. Either that, or,” she smiled mischievously, “or you clearly have it bad for me. I mean, I cant say I blame you. I look damn good.” 

He fell for it. Hook, line, and sinker. But he couldn’t help himself, so he let his eyes roam over her figure as she leaned back in the chair to give him a better look. And she knew it as her eyes met his as they trailed back up her body. She knew what she was doing to him. Damn her, he cursed.

After sputtering on his reply, and failing miserably to hide his blushing, he finally managed the words, “That is my spot.”

"What?” she laughed in surprised.

"Is that the only word you know?” he crossed his arms. 

He smiled at her genuine laugh that broke out over the whole of the place. It warmed in him ways he could not describe. They sat smiling at each other before he schooled his features and gained some control back.

“It is just that I work better and more efficiently in that location.”

“It’s a rather pleasant spot isn’t it?” she smiled at his nod of agreement. “But you know, everything is better when you share. So come on.” She stood and giggled at his shocked look. 

“I’m Raine,” she held her hand out to him and he took it, soft and warm in his own.

“Tyril.”

Check Yes or No

[Levi Schuler x Laura Day Masterlist]

Characters: Levi Schuler, Lily Day (daughter) Book: Mother of the Year [Levi x MC] Word Count: ~650

Synopsis: Lily has a very important question to ask Levi. *Father’s Day Fluff* Prompts: @wackydrabbles​​​ #100 (in bold); @choicesjunechallenge2021​ shoulder

"Hey, Rocket!... What's wrong?" Levi's cheerful tone quickly changed, noting Lily's troubled expression. His brow turned inward with concern. The typically effervescent tween chewed her cheek as she approached.

"I'm sorry your dad couldn't spend the day with you. I know you were looking forward to it."

"Oh." Her face fell a little more. She had actually forgotten about that. Not that she didn't want to spend Father's Day with her dad, but she'd been preoccupied working up the nerve to ask Levi what she wanted. "It's not really that. Well, I wish I could spend today with him, but it's not the first time he's canceled plans. I'm used to it." 

"I'm sorry, kiddo!" He ran his hands down her arms, trying to offer her some consolation. "Whatcha got there?"

Lily rocked on her heels, fidgeting with an envelope behind her back. "I know you're not really my dad—" She shrugged lightly, keeping her hands hidden. "But, you tuck me in at night. You play songs for me. We read books together. You take care of me when I'm sick. You come to all my science fairs and school events. And now, you're engaged to my mom, so we're going to be a family. Well, you and my mom are, but—I hope I can be your family, too...if you want."

Levi chuckled as the young girl rambled. "Of course, we're family. You're a big part of my heart."

Her eyes grew wider, glistening in the light. "Really?"

"We're a team. You and me. I think we have fun together."

"We do!" Lily smiled and happily nodded her agreement. With a little more confidence, she handed him the envelope she had been hiding. 

Levi admired the beautiful, hand-drawn space-themed card. As he opened it, his eyes filled with tears.

Lily held out a pen to him and watched anxiously.

The inside of the card read:

You make my mom so happy and me too. You make me smile and laugh and feel better when I'm sad. My life is better with you. 

Will you be my Bonus Dad?  (It's like a regular dad, but extra special). 

Check Yes or No. 

◻Yes

◻No

P.S. It's okay if you say no, I won't be mad. Maybe a little sad, but not mad.

He wrapped his arms around her, kissing the top of her head. "My Rocket."

"You have to check one," Lily insisted, patiently awaiting his reply. 

"How could I forget?" Levi wiped away his tears. He quickly checked yes, circled it, and crossed out no repeatedly to Lily's great delight. "A million times, 'yes,' Lily. I want to be in your life any way you will have me. But if you want me to be your Bonus Dad, that is the best title anyone could ever ask for." 

Lily bounced into his arms, hugging him close and resting her head on his shoulder. "I'm so glad you picked me." 

"I'm glad you picked me, too."

Levi ran his fingers over her back, caressing her as she cried her own tears. He might not be her biological father, but he would give anything to make her happy and keep her safe. "I love you so much, Lily." 

"I love you too, Dad!" Lily squeezed him as tightly as she could, not wanting to let go. Her life hadn't been the same since they met him, and she never wanted to be without him again. She kissed his cheek. "Happy Father's Day."

He sniffled back his tears, holding his future stepdaughter safely in his arms. He hadn't dared hope that this moment would come; and, never so soon. He cleared his throat, "This is huge - we need to celebrate! What do you think?"

"It's Father's day, so you should pick." Lily beamed excitedly. "But, I heard that ice cream is really good for dads." 

He wrapped his arm around her, suppressing his laughter. "Ice cream sounds perfect."

photo-booth shenanigans

Pairing: Bryce Lahela x F!MC (Alessia Lyxienne)

Book: Open Heart (Book 3: Chap 11)

Rating: G

Summary: Photobooth shenanigans with Bryce and Alessia at the wedding.

Prompts : @choicesjunechallenge2021 - Day 5: Glasses.

A/N: A drabble from my procrastination - and, I miss them so much!! I have a fic plan for the finale, hopefully, it'll be written soon! Enjoy! 5/5 days is done - I planned on doing more but, we will see! hehe

The props for the photo booth during Ines’s wedding were scattered on the table, as they were various designs that made Alessia smile widely – as she pulls Bryce her way.

“Okay, we have to do this.” She gestures upon the table as the people came through the photobooth one by one.

She saw Sienna, Elijah and Aurora took a chance upon it – as they both laugh at the results.

“Hey, Alessia – you guys should check it out! We need a group roomie picture for the apartment later.” She stated as they all nod excitedly, before Alessia taking Bryce by the hand to the photobooth itself.

-

“So, pick your poison of props.” She gestures upon the table, as Bryce picks up a pair of eccentric glasses from the table and puts it on.

She couldn’t help but laugh at him, the glasses were too big for his face – yet, the charming smile on his face was worth it.

“You look…very good.” She chokes a laugh once more, as Bryce picks up the other pair placing it for her.

“Now, we both can look good.” He states as he placed a kiss on her cheek, cheering her up instantly.

She nods, before taking one more prop with her – as she placed the flower crown on top of Bryce’s head. A wide grin spread on her face at the results.

“Fine, now – let's go!” Bryce took her hand, as they went into the photo booth.

-

The flashing light indicates their signal to pose, as they went with the classic smiles and peace signs – followed by, a silly face courtesy of Bryce himself, making her laugh instead of smiling as before. The third pic follows them both, making a silly face together and in sync, as the final one; which was sealed with a kiss at the end of the pics.

They left the booth with quite a smile, as the pics looked incredible and the glasses were a good touch. It was a good memory for both of them to hold onto in the future.

-

A few years later.

It’s their wedding – the happiest day of their life. And, one of the ways they will remember it; is with the glasses prop from Ines and Angie’s wedding years ago.

“It's back!” Bryce’s said putting it on once more with quite an enthusiasm as the reception goes on.

“You look as handsome as ever, Mr. Lahela.”

He took another pair, putting it for her – as they laugh together; similar to years ago. The feeling of déjà vu in the best way possible.

“Wait, we forgot one thing!” She took the similar flower crown once more and placed it upon his head.

“There you go. Perfection.” She said as they pose in front of the camera.

His gaze falls onto her, with much love and adoration – similar to years ago; as the flash goes off with his lips meeting hers. As the memory was the beginning of their happily ever after together.

THE END.

Power Couple

Pairing : Dr. Ethan Ramsey x f!MC (Dr. Meera Bose)                                            Summary : The morning of Ethan and Meera's first day as a power couple in the hospital.       Category : Fluff                                                        Warnings : None                                                     Word Count : 922

A/N : Who doesn't love a Power Couple? I sure do. I have a pictagram-text edit following this fic. Do check it out here. Also this is my additional submission for @choicesjunechallenge2021 Day 7 : First. Happy Reading! ❤️

The early morning rays cascaded into the room, the sky changing colours as the birds announced the arrival of a new day. Ethan rustled out of his sleep, opening his eyes to face the beautiful woman who showed him the meaning of love.

It was surely a new day for everyone on the planet but it was a very important and special day to them. Ethan couldn't be prouder, his Rookie was going to take up on his legacy. It was Meera's first day as the very capable head of the diagnostic team.

Ethan was extremely sure in her early days itself that Meera was here to make waves in the medical world, but he surely didn't identify that she would be taking up the position of the head of the diagnostic team at such a young age.

Beside him Meera shifted in her sleep. Ethan turned to face her, taking in the smell of her shampoo from her curls which were sprawled all over. He tucked away a loose strand of hair kissing her forehead.

He loved waking next to her and going to sleep with her. She had broken all the walls his cold stoned heart had built, warming it and turning his house into a home. Ethan trailed down a line of kisses, from her forehead to her nose and cheek and finally her lips.

Meera opened her eyes with a grin soon after Ethan had kissed her on the lips. "Someone seems eager for a morning round huh?" were her first words after waking up."Well good morning to you too" Ethan said, kissing her once again before chuckling and turning to lie on his back.

"Good morning Dr. Boyfriend" Meera said, scooting up to look him in the eye and then resting her head on his chest, listening to his heartbeat. Ethan used his arm to embrace Meera and pull her as close as he could, kissing the top of her head.

They stayed like that in comfortable silence enjoying each other's company without a word. Finally the alarm went off signalling it was time for them to get ready to become the power couple at the hospital.

Ethan let go of his embrace and Meera picked up her phone to turn the alarm off. She sat up in bed stretching, soon she was joined by her boyfriend.

"Are you nervous?" Ethan asked. "Yeah a little." Meera answered. "Now that the adrenaline rush has washed away the weight and significance of the position has actually dawned upon me. What if I am not ready? What if I am not able to manage the team like you?"

"Meera, you have no reason whatsoever to doubt yourself." Ethan said, pulling Meera into a tight hug, moving his hands on her naked back. "I have said this before and I'll say it again you are the most dedicated, passionate doctor to walk the halls of Edenbrook. If you are not ready there is nobody else who is. And you are not going to manage the team like me, but however you like." Ethan completed by once again pressing his lips to her.

The kiss was cut short as Jenner ran into their room getting into the bed at once and showering both of them with kisses. "Good morning Jenner!" Meera exclaimed, picking up the pug in her lap and booping his nose. Ethan sat there smiling.

"He is probably just hungry," Ethan said, giving his dog-son a small belly rub. "I'll go and arrange breakfast." With one last kiss he got up from the bed and left the room.

Ethan put down Jenner's food and went to get ready. Half an hour later Ethan came into the living room to find Jenner savouring his meal. He hunched down and petted the little guy and then went onto brew coffee for Meera and himself.

He finished his coffee and put hers in a go to cup with loads of cream and sugar just how she likes it. "Meera I am ready let's leave" he shouted towards the bedroom.

Minutes later he heard the tapping of heels to the marble floor, turning he saw his girlfriend, Dr. Meera Bose,Head of the Diagnostic Team, Edenbrook Hospital. Ethan was awestruck.

"Rookie, you look…" he trailed off. "... satisfactory?" Meera completed, chuckling. Ethan joined in too. "No, you look like the head of the diagnostic team." He said brushing his fingers on her knuckles.

Ethan opened his briefcase and took out two badges. One for himself and the other for her. He brought the two to Meera. "These are our new badges! Weren't we supposed to get them today?" Meera said.

"Yeah but by now you should know I have my ways Rookie." Ethan replied. He took the one that said "Dr. Meera Bose, Head of Diagnostic Team" and clipped it carefully to Meera's whitecoat pocket.

He then took her stethoscope from her hand and put that around her neck. Ethan then looked at her for a couple of minutes with eyes filled with respect and adoration, finally saying "All the best Meera, I believe in you."

Meera picked up the other badge that said "Dr. Ethan Jonah Ramsey, Chief of Medicine" and clipped on his pocket. "You too Ethan." she said, leaning in for a kiss.

Soon after both of them said goodbye to Jenner. Ethan took Meera's hand in his and both of them walked out of the apartment like a goddamn power couple set to save lives and conquer the medical world.

Thank you so much if you have read till here, it means the world to me. Hope to see you go on other different adventures with me, Ethan and Meera, till then sending love and hugs your way! ❤️

The Foredale’s

The ‘Unspoken Desires’ family background

❧  Link to the series masterlist here  ☙

The Foredale are an illustrious and old English noble family, with more than nine hundred years of history. Their lineage goes back to the time of William, the Conqueror. The lands were granted to their ancestor Richard of Caen, who is thought to have been a royal bastard.

The official house colours are blue and gold.

The family played an important role during the regency era, helping to bring down an intricate conspiracy against the royal family. Since then, the house has continued to maintain very strong ties with the royal family. In fact, the current Earl of Edgewater is the Queen's godson and the Dowager Countess is often invited to take tea with the monarch. The Foredale’s are also related to the Cordonian royal family, on the part of the Dowager Countess.

In spite of there is no extended family, the Foredale are very close to other families in the region, such as the Sinclaire’s and the Parson’s.

Although they don't neglect any of their social commitments, the family lives most of the time at Edgewater State, away from the prying eyes of the press, especially since the arrival of the Earl’s daughter to the family.

The Foredale are traditionally patrons and charitable, and the first Earl of Edgewater on the 21st  century is no exception. One of the most visible faces of the family's patronage is the young equestrian athlete Luke Harper, who is already training for the Olympic Games.

The three children are known as good students and are very active in Moorfield's community activities. Both boys study in Eton and the daughter in a local school. There are high expectations for this new generation. The youngest son, Harry Foredale (b.1995), will inherit the title of 'Earl' and much of the family's wealth. It is expected that his older half-brother, Edmund Marlcaster (b.1991), assist the future Earl in his duties. Miss Beatrice Foredale (b.1994) is expected to inherit the title of Viscountess Foredale.

The official entry of Miss Foredale into social circles is awaited with anticipation, since there have been no female descendents for nearly a hundred years.

In addition to the family properties management and his political duties, the Earl is also an amateur historian and a writer, author of bestsellers like The Unexpected Heiress and Distant Shores. 

Face claims:

❥ Vincent Foredale - Hugh Jackman

❥ Henrietta Foredale - Ashley Jensen

❥ Dominique Foredale - Julie Andrews

❥ Edmund Marlcaster - Johnny Flynn

❥ Beatrice Foredale (MC|OC) - Jenna Coleman

❥ Harry Foredale - Josh Dylan

the promise of happiness

Pairing: Bryce Lahela x F!MC (Alessia Lyxienne)

Book: Open Heart

Rating: G , TW: mentions of surgery.

Prompts by @choicesjunechallenge2021 Day 1 – plot twist

Summary: Alessia's ex is in town, and its quite a reunion. <3

A/N: hiii, so I decided to participate in the challenge and well, write lots of Bryce before we have to say goodbye to him soon. So, this is kinda (hopefully) become a writing spree for me - like a Bryce appreciation-ish of my own. I have some plans already - and, I can't wait to share them! Also, a huge shoutout to @appiomofchoice for a lot of her help on this fic and the upcoming ones! Enjoy! (also, I will start to use a new mc name! however, she is who casey is but, with a new name instead hehe) // i dont own any characters except mc and brian lewis. (and, i apologize for grammar errors and any errors in this story)

-

It was supposed to be a normal day, however, the gasped that escaped her signals that the day is going to be an adventure. As she stood beside Bryce, both of them were facing a familiar face who she knows all too well. Brian Lewis, the Brian Lewis. The knowing smirk on his face as his gaze falls onto her brings back all the memories during her time at med school before.

He was a senior, a few years older than her. As they started to get to know one another through a mentoring session with Dr. Lisbon in her anatomy class. They started to go out in a matter of months, as their study sessions become quite intimate in the past – before, breaking up as Brian left for an opportunity to continue his residency in London. They were on good terms, and seeing him again in front of her brought back old memories.

“Dr. Lyxienne, are we clear?” The sound of Harper’s voice pulled her out of a trance, as she was pulled back into reality.

“I’m sorry, would you repeat that once more?”

Harper nods, before introducing him to her – as Bryce raised an eyebrow at the man.

“This is Dr. Brian Lewis from John Hopkins – and, he will assist us in one of the diagnostics team cases.” Brian takes his hand out towards her as Bryce took it before Alessia could do anything.

“Nice to meet you, Dr. Lewis, I’m Dr. Bryce Lahela and this is…”

“The Dr. Lyxienne of course! How have you been Alessia?” He said with a huge smile on his face, as Alessia froze, not knowing or mentally preparing herself where her boyfriend met his ex.

“I’m doing fine, thank you, Dr. Lewis.” The formality makes him take a step back as the atmosphere around them becomes awkward.

“Well, Dr. Lewis – we will see you at the diagnostics office soon. It’s nice to meet you.” Harper shook his arm again, with a smile before leaving the room.

The three of them stood awkwardly, before Alessia’s pagers started to beep – as she quickly runs away from the scene any further.

The two men stood quietly before Bryce left the room as well – leaving a sighing Brian in the office.

-

Bryce’s pager started to vibrate, as he was called into the diagnostics office as he finished with an appendectomy. With a satisfied smile on his face, he was met with a full office – consists of Dr. Emery, Dr. Ramsey, Alessia, Dr. Carrick, and Brian who are discussing their new case.

“Bryce, welcome. Dr. Lewis, this is one of our top surgeons in our department– Dr. Bryce Lahela.” Harper stated before Bryce taking a seat beside Alessia who looks nervous upon the encounter.

“It's good to see you again Dr. Lahela.” His voice was rough with a hint of softness in it.

Bryce nods before he was passed with a copy of the case itself.

“Based on the check-up we did, we found that the patient has suffered from spinal osteomyelitis. It is known as an infection of the vertebrae – it is a rare case, however still dangerous overall.” His presence is commanding as the others listen to it intently.

“How dangerous is it?” Alessia’s voice can be heard as all eyes fall on her.

Brian smiles, as he explains.

“Infections on the spine can be extremely dangerous along with the surgery on that are can be risky with the probability that may lead to a case of paralysis or even more infection.”

She nods intently, as the room went quiet once more.

“When will the surgery be performed? I’m guessing the sooner, the better right?” Tobias adds along with the conversation.

“I suspect we kept her in for a couple of days, to make some additional check-ups. But, if a timeline was needed – definitely as soon as we could.” He concludes before taking a seat.

After a while of discussion – the team was dispersed.

“Dr. Emery, I have to ask why was I picked by Dr. Lewis for the surgery?”

“Dr. Tanaka recommended your name and he wanted to take you in this round. I have to go now for a meeting, but – if you have any questions, Dr. Lewis can answer it for you about the surgery.” He nods as Harper was out of his sight.

-

Alessia sits on her own, as the dish in front of her remains uneaten due to the textbooks on the table. She was quite occupied with the text in front of her without realizing she had some company awaits her.

Her gaze falls onto the familiar gray eyes looking at her – with the familiar smile since before. Brian was sitting opposite her.

“Yes, Dr. Lewis, what do you need?”

“It’s me Alessia, can we talk – why are you avoiding me?” His voice somewhat remains strong, as Alessia tries to avoid the question.

“I…don’t know. It's weird seeing you again after all these years.” She begins her argument, as Brian nods in understanding.

“I can quite say the same, you look as beautiful as years ago.” He compliments her, as she smiles and lets out a chuckle.

“Thank you. I gotta say – you look as good as you did years ago. But, why Edenbrook, what are you doing here even?” Alessia shuts the textbook, as she looked him in the eyes.

“Dr. Emery was a colleague of mine before, and she requested me to come by for the surgery. I didn’t expect you’d be here.” His gaze falls down upon his hands.

She nods, not knowing how to reply as the silence follows for a moment.

“I know it's an unexpected encounter. It might be weird seeing your ex after all these years, but…I am glad that I got to see you again Alessia.” He says with a smile on his face, the genuine expression she knew all too well from years ago.

Before she could reply, she saw Bryce making his way to her. She smiles at him, as Brian follows her gaze meeting his eyes. He waved at him, before glancing his way back to her. The wide smile on her face still presents on her face, as Bryce took a seat beside them.

“Dr. Lewis, Alessia.” He greeted them both, as Brian's gaze fall onto them both. How comfortable they looked together before he excuses himself from the table.

“I’ll see you in surgery Dr. Lahela, and Alessia.” He smiles before leaving the cafeteria.

-

Bryce’s gaze follows his trail until he left the cafeteria.

“So, I think I have been out of the loop as your boyfriend – but, who is he?” His eyebrows were raised at Brian’s empty seat.

She lets out a small chuckle,

“He is…my -ex in med school actually.” She lets the truth set free, as Bryce looks at her in awe actually.

“Well, you certainly had upgraded.” He jokes as a wink followed before she elbows him playfully.

“Very funny Bryce.” She says before opening her textbook again.

She feels his eyes on him, as she glances his way. He somehow looked nervous suddenly.

“How do you feel when you see him again?”

She thought about it,

“It feels like nostalgic, yet – the story between us has ended years ago. You don’t have to worry alright.” She winks at him, as Bryce lets out a mock laugh – as a response.

“I’m not worried! Never, nope.”

“Whatever you say, Bryce.” She said before leaning in for a kiss, as they continue to spend the remaining time together studying about the upcoming surgery.

-

It was days later, as Bryce preps for the surgery alongside Brian. The OR was quiet, as they were the only ones there. A few seconds later, the surgical assistant arrives alongside the on-lookers consists of other surgeons.

He took a deep breath before they began the procedure, the gallery above them was filled with doctors – as Bryce could recognize a few to name. Dr. Emery and Dr. Tanaka are whispering subtlely, Dr. Ramsey alongside Dr. Carrick and even Dr. Banerji are there. As his gaze moved towards the left, he was shocked to see Alessia sitting by the end of the gallery – as she waves his way. He smiles, before resuming his role alongside Brian.

The clock was ticking slowly, as he observes Brian’s work and was impressed by his handiwork. They switched tasks in between the surgery – and he felt alive at that moment.

“Dr. Lahela, pass me the lancet.” Bryce nods as one of the nurses passes it his way.

Brian was focused on his work before he blurted a question in the middle of the surgery itself.

“So, you are the boyfriend I assume.” His voice is low as Bryce look at him with wide eyes.

He nods, as Brian continues on the surgery with such ease in his work.

“How long have you been together?”

“We just made it official, but…almost three years.” He says proudly behind his surgical mask.

There was a pause in between before he says.

“Years ago, I knew that smile on her face – along with the look in her eyes, she really does loves you. And, when Alessia loves someone - she will go over mountains for you.” He said suddenly – as it felt like a promise for him.

Bryce nods and smiles to himself, remembering the moments they had gone through together.

“I know.” I will, an unspoken promise was said between the quiet atmosphere of the OR. As, a smile was visible on Brian's face - somehow he got the message.

As the procedure goes on, a couple of hours had passed – they survived the procedure after a couple roadblocks along the way. The patient has the last resort on the surgery – Bryce took the lead to amputate the affected limb to stop the infection from spreading further. And, at that note – the surgery was over.

They cleaned up from their dirty scrubs as the night has grown late for them both.

“Dr. Lahela – you did an exceptional job today.”

He smiles, feeling the glowing pride in himself.

“Thank you for giving me the chance to join in the surgery, Dr. Lewis.” He replies as Brian nods before they both started to go on separate ways.

-

It’s the day after the surgery, as Alessia stumbles upon Brian who is hugging Dr. Emery – somewhat as a gesture of farewell. As they went their separate ways, his eyes met with hers – a smile on his face.

“Hey.” He begins to conversation.

“Hi, leaving already?”

“Yeah, unfortunately, I have an emergency meeting with the head of surgery at John Hopkins in a few hours.” He explains as she nods in understanding.

“Well, it's good to see you again which is… very weird to say.” She lets out a laugh as Brian lets out a chuckle.

“It's good to see you too. It's been years, and I’m glad to see you thriving here Alessia.” He smiles as they hugged.

“Thanks to your pop-quizzes on anatomy that's what keeping me here.” She winks at the joke, as they let go of the hug.

“Well, I’m glad I could play a part in the memoir of Dr. Alessia Lyxienne then.”

She nods, as he checks on the time.

“I have to leave before the traffic gets insane – but, say ‘hi’ to Bryce for me? And, if he ever hurts you – just know I’ll be ready to kick his ass for you.”

“No need, I think he’ll make me happy.” She said wistfully, as Brian smiles even wider.

“Don’t forget to invite me to the wedding then.” He winks before leaving the hospital grounds.

He stopped in his tracks, as he gazes back at where he was before. Bryce and Alessia were seen happily smiling together, he smiles – feeling happy for them both.

-

At that moment, Bryce’s eyes met with his as he waves to him. Brian waves back, as in a second – he was gone out of their sight.

“He said ‘hi’ by the way.”

Bryce nods, as he remembers the words during the surgery – it felt like a promise for him to make her happy. He smiles, as he will keep that promise and make Alessia the happiest woman in the world with him.

THE END.

heroes and monsters

Pairing: Bryce Lahela x F!MC (Alessia Lyxienne) Characters: Louis Lahela (OC) Rating: G (fluffy, family domestic) Word Count: 900

Summary: Louis suffers a huge scare of the 'monsters' at the attic - before becoming the heroes of the day.

Prompts: @choicesjunechallenge2021 ; Day 4 - Attic.

A/N: Day 4/5 writing streak before the finale itself. As the final fic will be the post-finale one. This is a soft domestic piece of the Lahela family and I don't think I'll get over them anytime soon. Another shoutout for @appiomofchoice again, for everything. <3 enjoy!

Monsters. Monsters?

Did he hear him right? Bryce listens to the little boy with a terrified expression on his face. Louis is six years old, it's the time where one's imagination would come to life. The period where the learning process had begun; where the monsters of the real world have become real. And, here he is – comforting the little boy on their wildest imagination.

“I heard a sound from the attic, it’s the monsters coming to eat us!” Louis stated urgently as he hugged his space-monkey plushie tightly as if a shield to protect him.

“Hey, there is no monster in the attic Louis. It's probably just mommy running around up there.” He stated as he pulled Louis into his arms – an embrace between them both.

“No, I’m sure there is a monster up there! I saw a shadow yesterday while playing with the toys.” He points out, as Alessia appears in the doorway.

Bryce gave her a knowing look, as they knew what it meant. The monster signal – as an idea appears in his head.

“Hey buddy, do you remember your favorite show we watched together today?”

Louis thinks for a moment before nodding excitedly – forgetting about the monster fiasco at the moment. He remembers the show, about a boy with superpowers fighting all the monsters attacking them using his trusty star jacket and star laser; Captain StarTron.

Louis’s obsession with space got him hooked onto the show, mimicking the hero – flying across the living room with his sidekick; Mr. Space Monkey in hand. Together side-by-side fighting the evil monsters.

“Yes! Captain StarTron fighting the monsters in space!” He says excitedly, as he held onto Mr. Space Monkey in his arms with a wide smile on his face.

Bryce and Alessia smile at the sight of their little boy, he is growing up every day. As his eyes met with hers, he squeezes her hands, before putting their plan into action.

“What if we go fight the monsters at the attic just like Captain Startron! Banish them forever from our house?” Bryce mimics the show’s narrator – as Louis smiles excitedly; taking his cape and his sidekick as they all leave the room.

-

The lights were turned on, and the attic was in sight. Louis leading the way, as Bryce and Alessia follow from behind.

The boy stopped in his tracks at the sight of the attic, he turns and the scared expression was there again. The fear came through again. Bryce kneels onto his level, holding both of his hands in his.

“What’s the matter, Louis?”

“What if…the monster ate you and mom?” He stutters a bit, as Bryce looks at him with a smile on his face.

“It won’t happen, buddy, you are our protector and we will be safe.”

“Do you promise?” His green eyes shined through – similar to Alessia’s as Bryce nods by showcasing his pinkie finger for a proper promise.

“Pinkie promise.”

Louis took a deep breath, as they take the stairs on their way to the attic without Alessia. The attic was dark, as Bryce founds the switch in a matter of seconds. The dim light of the attic shines through, as the room was filled with boxes, old trinkets, and even Louis’s baby stuff can be seen in a distance.

-

“Are you ready to fight the monsters, Big Lou?” He asks as Louis nods resolutely with his plushie in the clutch as they commence attack into the imaginary monsters in the attic – a few grunts were released along with the power of their imagination.

-

After a while, both of them sat down on the floor. They fought the monsters together, Louis has fought the monsters bravely as the wide smile of his says it all. He was jumping excitedly, clutching Mr. Space Monkey in his arms – before pulling Bryce into a hug.

“Daddy, I did it! I fought the monsters with Mr. Space Monkey just like the show!” He exclaims excitedly, as Bryce beams from happiness on his son; pulling him into a hug.

“I’m proud of you son, you are our hero just like Captain Startron!” He kisses him on his face, before letting him run around the attic – reeling with happiness in his expression.

Bryce didn’t notice another presence appeared beside him.

As the six-year-old makes his way towards them both.

“Mom! Dad and I fought the monsters just like Captain Startron!” He exclaims excitedly, as she hugs him in return.

“That’s amazing – I’m so proud of you both! Now, let’s get you ready for lunch – it's your favorite.” She winks at Louis, as he immediately makes his way out of the attic – the wide grin never leaving his face anytime soon.

-

Bryce and Alessia sat together on the wooden floors of the attic – her head on his shoulders.

“I love you so much.” She says as he smiles placing a kiss on her temple.

“I love you too.”

They sat in silence, before their cue on parental duty. His thoughts float upon years ago, how different their lives are without Louis. – and how much it changed again when he enters this world. He never thought in any lifetime, he would have a family – as the monsters from his past were haunting him, making him fear the future. And here he is, happy with Louis and Alessia by his side, and he wouldn’t have it any other way.

THE END.
