instead of you [part thirty-six] || l.mh

pairing: [best friend’s brother] lee minho x college!reader ft. han jisung

summary: you didn’t expect to spend your summer pretending to be your best friend’s girlfriend- then again, you didn’t expect to fall for your best friend’s brother, either. 

warnings: swearing, alcohol

word count: 3k

a/n: revamped my tom holland series from my main blog ( @wazzupmrstark ) to try and motivate myself to finish it!!

“Nice hat.”

You gave Minho a sideways look. “Really?”

“Yeah, it’s cute.”

You tipped the brim at him, grinning. “Thank you. Jisung picked it out.”

“He has good taste.”

You weren’t sure how to respond to the double entendre so you didn’t, choosing instead to direct your attention forward, where your fake boyfriend was teeing up. 

Back at school, Jisung had gone off to play golf with a few of your mutual friends once or twice, but it was an expensive hobby, and as broke college students, they couldn’t exactly make a habit out of it. For a little while, Jisung worked as an assistant chef at a nearby country club for a couple of months which allowed him free access to their course in his off time, but juggling the job and his studies quickly became too much to handle and he couldn’t even keep up with his responsibilities, let alone have any free time to take advantage of the course. 

Considering how long it had been since he last played, you weren’t expecting much from Jisung’s first swing, but when he stuck the golf ball with his club, it actually went relatively far. Of course, you didn’t have much knowledge of the sport to go off of when it came to gauging how well he was actually doing, but from the looks on his brothers’ faces, you assumed he’d done pretty well. 

“Good job!” you cheered, running up to your best friend and kissing him on the cheek. “That was good right?”

He caught you with an arm around your waist and pulled you close. “Thanks, baby. It wasn’t bad, but it could have been better.”

“Whatever, you’re just being humble.”

“He’s not,” Felix piped up from behind the two of you. “Let me show you how a real golfer plays.”

You rolled your eyes in unison with Jisung but stepped back to let Felix tee up anyway, both watching as he took a couple of practice swings. 

“How much do you want to bet he comes in last?” Jisung muttered in your ear. 

“I’m not willing to go bankrupt over this, sorry.”

Jisung snorted and tried to muffle his laugh in your shoulder but it was still loud enough for his twin to hear. 

“Oi! I don’t want to hear it when you’re up thirty points over me.”

“Yeah, we’ll see, Lix,” Jisung scoffed. “Just swing already! We don’t have all day, mate.”

Felix shot his brother a look but did as he was told. He rolled his shoulders and focused in on the ball, huffing out a breath and drawing the club back over his shoulder. He put more power into his swing than Jisung had but hit the ball with the edge of the clubhead instead of the center which sent it flying a little off to the left. From what you could see, the ball still landed on the pitch. It hadn’t gone into the trees or the lake, it was just in a trickier spot to clear. 

“What was that you were saying about points?” Jisung asked smugly.

Felix groaned and turned back around to argue with him as Minho came up and took his place at the starting point. 

“It’s going to be a long day, isn’t it?” you muttered to Minho. 

He gave you a tight half-smile and shrugged. “You have no idea.”

-

It had only been an hour since the boys started and you didn’t think you’d ever heard so many insults and curse words thrown around in such a short amount of time, which was saying something. 

Jisung, Felix, and Minho were all neck and neck with each other, with Dom far ahead of all three of them. 

The course itself was beautiful. It was just across the street from the resort you were staying at, right on the edge of the water. You were able to see the ocean from the tops of the faux hills on the green, sparkling with the reflection of the sun. The waves were dotted with little boats and surfers all enjoying the good weather and making the most out of the afternoon.

You would have been content to spend all day there if it wasn’t so hot and you weren’t forced to stand around listening to your best friend argue with his brothers.

“How many more holes are there?” you asked Nikki, leaning over and whispering quietly so that the others wouldn’t hear you. 

“Too many.”

“Kill me now.” 

“Why don’t we get ourselves a drink when the cart girl comes around? It’ll make the time go faster.”

You grinned. “I like the way you think.”

-

You weren’t a stranger to day drinking, not by a long shot, but you didn’t want to get too sloppy while the sun was still up. You had long since given up on the little pact you’d made with yourself not to drink for the remainder of the trip— not that you’d ever really followed it in the first place. Nikki got herself a High Noon when the aforementioned cart girl came by, so you did the same, insisting on covering the tab for both of you.

“Please?” you practically begged. “It’s literally the least I can do after everything you’ve done for me.”

She seemed to think about it for a minute. “Fine. I’ll let you do it this one time. But don’t get used to it.”

You did a little dance in celebration and handed over some cash to the cart girl after she popped the tabs on both of your cans. 

“Want anything?” you called to the boys. “It’s on me!”

Felix was the only one to take you up on the offer, both Minho and Jisung making a fuss about not spending your money on them. Where was this attitude back at school? you asked yourself, scoffing at Jisung’s refusal. 

“I’m in the lead, I can’t afford to lower my inhibitions now!” Dom said. “But when I win, I’ll treat you to a pint, even though you’re canoodling with one of my opponents.” 

“I’m starting to think you guys have something against me,” you accused the two non-participants as you handed Felix his beer. “What, do you think I’m broke?”

“We’re just gentlemen,” Minho said pointedly, shooting Felix a look.

“You are broke,” Jisung muttered.

“Watch it,” you shot, waving your drink at him. “You’re not getting a sip now.”

“Babe, I didn’t want a sip to begin with.”

“Okay, well even if you change your mind you can’t have one.” 

He laughed and shook his head at the ground, walking back over to the teeing-off point with his hands on his hips.

Nikki was right, the afternoon did indeed pass a lot quicker with drinks in your hands. They kept you cool in the heat of the sun and the alcohol made the hours blend into each other.

In the latter half of the game, you started to pay more attention. You had finally begun to pick up what was good and what was bad from everyone else’s reactions to the shots and could actually tell for yourself. 

“Baby, can you switch this out for the driver?” Jisung asked, holding his current club out to you.

“Which one is that?” 

“The big one.” 

You selected the club he described and passed it to him, taking the one he’d just used to put back in the golf bag. He kissed you when you met him in the middle to swap the two, smiling against you when he noticed Minho looking on. 

“Sorry, couldn’t help it,” he whispered in your ear. “It’s too fun to fuck with him.”

Confused, you turned around to see what he was talking about only to see Minho standing a few feet away with his tongue in his cheek. 

“Thanks, baby,” Jisung said, putting his hand on the small of your back to remind you of what you were doing. “You make a cute caddy.”

Minho mumbled something under his breath that you didn’t catch but you figured that was probably for the best.

-

After golf, you hung out with Jisung’s family at the pool for a few hours before heading back up to the rooms to get ready for dinner. 

“Do we need to dress nice?” you asked.

Jisung peeked out from the bathroom to answer you, shaking his wet hair dry with a towel. 

“Uh, not like nice, nice but nicer than just jeans.”

“Okay, I can do that.”

You turned back to your open suitcase and rifled through it in search of something that fit the dress code.

“By the way, where did you go last night?” 

“With Minho?”

“Yeah, you were gone for like hours. I fell asleep and then woke up randomly and you still weren’t back.”

“Minho took me to some beach.”

“Did you have sex with him?”

You looked up. “Yeah. Why?”

Jisung shrugged. “Just wondering.”

You could tell he wanted to say more but you didn’t push. If you did, you’d only be hurting your own feelings. He had told you that himself. Jisung had been very clear that he wasn’t ready to talk about the Minho thing with you so all you could do was be honest and answer the questions that he asked, even if it was awkward and uncomfortable. 

You were so used to guilt by now that you almost didn’t notice the fresh wave that washed over you. You knew it was wrong to still sleep with Minho after everything— hell, you knew it was wrong before everything, but neither of those facts stopped you from doing it. 

You realized Jisung was still looking at you so you shook it off and picked up a random sundress from your luggage. 

“How’s this for tonight?”

“Looks good to me.”

An hour later, you and the rest of the Hans were seated around a table in a dimly lit restaurant. The sundress had been the right choice. The place was right on the water and open to the outdoor air so all of the other patrons were dressed pretty similarly. 

Jisung ordered for you after you looked over the menu together like always. Your hands rested on the table, fingers entwined for his family to see. You had been doing this for so long now that it was almost second nature to you. You had fallen into the routine a long time ago but you didn’t even have to think about it anymore. You probably wouldn’t even be giving the action a second thought had it not been for Minho staring at your hands from across the table. 

It looked like he was zoning out, like he wasn’t actually glaring at you holding hands with his brother but you couldn’t be sure. You kicked him gently in the shin to get his attention. He jolted and locked eyes with you immediately, erasing any trace of subtly.

“You okay there, son?” Dom asked, patting Minho on the back. 

“Yeah, yeah, ‘m fine. Just got a chill.”

Thankfully, everyone seemed to move past it and the conversation resumed. Dinner was otherwise uneventful. The boys recounted the golf game and Dom’s landslide win, while you just listened and nodded along when it felt right. It was a relief not to have to add anything to the discussion. You didn’t have the energy to. 

Dom stayed true to his word from earlier and bought everyone a round from the bar at the restaurant. You weren’t a big beer drinker but you didn’t want to be rude so you suffered through the whole pint, ignoring Jisung’s worried glances from the side. 

“You know I could have finished that for you,” he muttered. 

“I don’t want to look like a pussy in front of your dad,” you hissed back. “He bought it for us. And I didn’t want to be left out.”

Your best friend scoffed and shoved his hands in his pockets. “You’ll do anything to prove a point, won’t you?”

“You know me.”

-

Minho pulled you aside after dinner, once you were back at the resort. 

“Think you can ditch your ‘boyfriend’?” he whispered as you both fell back a couple of steps.

You stopped. “What, why?”

“I just want a moment alone with you.”

“A moment or several moments?” you challenged. 

He smirked. “I’ll take whatever I can get.”

“I can’t keep blowing Jisung off,” you sighed, “and neither can you.’

“You know he doesn’t want anything to do with me right now.”

“That doesn’t mean you should stop trying!”

“Look, can we not do this right now? When they’re literally right there?”

“You’re the one who pulled me aside right in front of them.”

You watched his jaw clench in frustration but he didn’t say anything else because he knew you were right. 

“Can you ditch him or not?”

You sighed again and looked back to Jisung. He was in what looked to be a heated debate with Felix. You didn’t need to hear it to know it was over something stupid.  

“I’ll see what I can do.”

-

Jisung barely bat an eye when you told him where you were going. 

“Okay, be safe,” he said as he kicked off his shoes. 

That’s it? That’s all he had to say to you? You wanted to ask him just that, but you were afraid of creating another rift between the two of you. Jisung had said he wasn’t ready to talk about it so you shouldn’t push, right? But was it wrong to keep leaving like this?

Going back and forth with yourself was only wasting time and Minho was still waiting for you downstairs. Fuck it. 

You grabbed a spare room key from the dresser, shoved it in the pocket of your dress, and left without another word before you could change your mind. 

Minho was right where you left him, leaning against the wall by the elevator hub. He grinned when he saw you. 

“Thought you’d never escape.”

You rolled your eyes at him as you let him lead you through the lobby by the hand. You were still wary of people seeing you together but the lobby was seemingly empty. 

“Jisung didn’t care. It was me who took forever.”

Minho paused, letting go of your hand as he gave you a concerned once over. “Is everything okay?”

“Yeah, I’m fine.”

“Are you sure?”

You nodded. “Yeah, I don’t really want to talk about it. So, where are we going?”

He frowned, but only momentarily, quickly covering it up with a smile. “I- okay, um... remember how you said we don’t do ‘couple stuff’?”

“Yeah?”

“I thought maybe I could take you somewhere where we can do that.”

“What do you mean?”

“I’m taking you on a date, silly.”

“Really? Where?” When he didn’t answer, you groaned. “You and your stupid surprises.”

“It’s more fun this way and you know it,” he insisted, tugging you along by the hand.

“I like being prepared,” you argued. 

He grinned. “So be prepared for a good time.”

The drive wasn’t far at all this time but you were confused when he pulled into a crowded lot. You were even more confused when he didn’t turn off the car or more to get out of it. 

You turned to him in confusion. “Minho?”

“Y/n?” he parroted. 

“Where are we?”

“We’re on our date.”

“Yes, but where?”

“Did you not see the sign when we turned in?” You shook your head. He grinned. “It’s a drive-in.”

“Really?”

“Why do you think no one’s getting out of their car?” 

“I didn’t really notice, to be honest.”

“Too distracted by your hot date?” 

You didn’t spare him a reaction. “How’d you find this place?” 

“I did some research the other night,” he explained, “when you, you know, we talked about it. I figured this is about as close as we could get to a real date. At least right now.”

“That’s… really thoughtful.”

He shrugged. “Nah, it’s nothing, really.” 

“Well I was going to kiss you, but if it’s nothing—”

“No, no. I want the kiss. Give me my kiss.”

You chuckled, relenting as you leaned in. He met you halfway over the center console and kissed you sweetly. It was short but eager, just enough to leave you wanting more. 

You had to remind yourself not to get your hopes up. Sure, Minho was showing interest in you now, but what about when this was all over? Would he want to do long-distance? Did he want to date you at all? You had been telling yourself that it was just sex all this time but now you were on a date... but what did it mean? You could just ask but you were scared to ruin the moment, ruin whatever it was that was actually going on. 

You’d been asking yourself the same questions for weeks now and the scary thing was, it seemed like Minho was serious about you. He had all but said it outright to you. And here he was taking you on a fucking date. It was you who kept pushing back. You told yourself it was because of Jisung, but if you were being honest with yourself that was only half of it. You were afraid of getting hurt. You had never been in a real relationship before for that very reason. Well, that and you liked being single. It seemed favorable considering the dating pool of your university. 

“I want another one,” Minho murmured, leaning in again. 

“Nope, that’s all you get for now,” you teased, even though you did very much want to kiss him again. 

His lips parted in surprise. “Wha- why?”

“Because I only promised you one! I can’t just go giving my kisses away, can I?”

“Sure you can,” he argued. 

“That would lessen their value. I can’t wager them to get what I want if they’re not worth anything.”

“Your kisses are very valuable to me,” Minho insisted. 

“Because I’m sparing with them.”

Minho inched even closer to your face, eyes trained on your mouth. “So I can earn them,” you started to nod, “if I’m a good boy?” 

You almost choked on nothing, swallowing a moan. Minho watched your reaction with a self-satisfied smile and then settled back in his seat, turning his attention to the giant projector screen at the front of the parking lot. 

“We’ll see,” you muttered hoarsely.

He hummed, still looking forward. “I’ll be good then.”

lmk what you think i always appreciate feedback!!

Trump Responds to Mark Cuban: A Heated Exchange Over Strong Women and Past Grudges

In a recent tweet, former President Donald Trump took a direct aim at billionaire entrepreneur Mark Cuban, calling him a “really dumb guy” and “a major loser.” This exchange was fueled by Cuban’s recent public criticism, where he reportedly suggested that Trump does not surround himself with strong women. Trump fired back, vehemently denying Cuban’s statement and claiming that he surrounds himself with some of the “strongest women in the world,” including world leaders.

The tweet continued in classic Trump fashion, marked by bold accusations and personal jabs. Trump described Cuban as a “fool” who frequently appears on television only to criticize him, and suggested that Cuban’s criticism stems from Trump “tuning him out” during his presidency due to incessant calls. According to Trump, Cuban took this dismissal hard, as he allegedly has a “very insecure” personality.

“Actually, he is very wrong,” Trump tweeted, “I surround myself with the strongest of women.” He clarified his belief that “all women are great, whether strong or not strong,” and urged women to take offense at Cuban’s remarks.

In addition to his critique of Cuban’s opinions on strong women, Trump addressed Cuban’s supposed political loyalties, pointing out that Cuban was “forced” to support Vice President Kamala Harris, a claim he wrapped in his usual criticism by referring to her as “Lyin’ Kamala Harris.” Trump’s message concluded with a cutting comment about Cuban’s lack of “clubhead speed,” a reference that seemed to hint at Cuban’s alleged inadequacies both in character and in physical ability.

This Twitter post is the latest in Trump’s history of sharp, public feuds with high-profile figures. The exchange has sparked both support and criticism, illustrating the polarized perspectives surrounding Trump’s remarks on leadership, loyalty, and the empowerment of women.

ChanDean - Boss x Assistant au

Warnings: slight nsfw talk

"Steven, send Jason up." Heather said into the microphone, she sat back in her chair and put her cigarette to her lips. "Yes, Ma'am." Steven's voice came through the speaker. Heather looked out her window, watching over the city. She was at the top floor and loved it, she loved heights and feeling like she was towering over everyone. She loved how big her office was, she loved how she had couches to lay on and games to play. She was basically a kid but with big responsibilities.

Heather looked towards the door when someone knocked. "Jason is here, Ms. Chandler." He spoke. Heather blew out smoke before answering. "Let him in." She said setting her cigarette down in her ashtray. Jason walked in, he was pulling at his collar and complaining about how he hated wearing these clothes. Heather stood up, rolling her sleeves up. She was wearing a white button up with black and white pants with matching heels.

Jason sat down in the chair, sighing. Heather walked around her desk and behind the chair Jason was sitting in. She put her hands on the back of the chair and leaned down to his ear. "Stop complaining or I'll bend you over this fucking desk and make you bleed." She growled lowly, she then licked up his jaw and stood back up, going over to her golf clubs. Just like her father, she loved to golf. They had matching sets and would often go out together and golf. Heather took a putter and went over to her little golf set up.

Heather set one of the balls down on the tee and got prepared to swing. Jason liked being threatened with a good time, he stood up and walked over, taking Heather's club and smirking. "What if I want to complain?" He asked, knowing it would piss of Heather. Heather stood up straight, she had at least a few inches on him, plus with her heels she was a decent amount taller than him. She snatched her club back and hit the end of the grip into Jason's stomach, making him yelp and fall back.

Heather stood over him, pressing the clubhead against Jason's throat. "I told you what would happen, now, get on your knees and pray for forgiveness." She said taking the pressure away from his neck and stepping away. Jason loved it, he slowly got up, slightly in pain and got on his knees. He clasped his hands together and stared at Heather. Heather got in position again and swung, making the ball move across the small green pathway. The ball fell into the hole, and she looked at Jason. "Close your eyes."

To continue where we left it off Both flowey and Bendy agreed they carefully went through alleyways hiding from sight as they made their way across the city both Bendy and Cuphead were the most cautious about where they were going before stumbling into an abandoned studio they sighed with relief knowing they had a safe place to stay.

A few days go by just surviving but cup and bendy are getting bored and tired of just surviving like this this world is new and it seems friends and loved ones are missing they want to go explore but flowey is nervous and worried about The Inside getting them. they have a mini argument about the situation but then cuphead cuts them off “guys stop I also have another reason why I want to explore this city…well I have this bag and it has my stuff in it..” “your stuff? Why is that so important?” Replies bendy. “I have bullet finger remember? Also I want something in that bag..” said bendy. bendy and flowey looks at cups face and they just don’t even ask.

Again they slowly and sneakily walk through the city alleyways with them in the alley they find the name of the city sitting on a sign… ”Inkwell city” Cuphead looks visually shaken “Yo cup you ok?” Asked bendy. “Uhh..yeah..let’s continue…” Bendy doesn’t think too much of it and just continues walking on their way but while they are debating where they are going, in the darkness deep in the alleyway a tall being is lurking in the shadows..

Cuphead notices this and quickly backs away from this monster bendy gets the hint and yelps as he also backs away “WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING?!” screamed Bendy. Cuphead fires a warning shot at the monster but as it misses the monster’s blue fur. The monster comes into the light revealing it is tall and has blue fur it wears a small vest with a star pattern it stands up straight letting its presence known. Bendy just stares at the monster as it stares back cup is ready to kill this beast until Bendy tells him to wait “Wait?!” “yes wait!! I think it's harmless..? It just looks hungry” said Bendy “Let's give it some food!” continued Bendy. “You’re making the worst mistake it's a monster,” said Cuphead “It's not like it's a pet”. “I get that but don't know if there's something innocent about it” Bendy smiled as he said that cuphead looked at him like he was crazy “You a dumbass you know that right?” said Cuphead accepting this monster then walked away bendy and the monster quickly followed.

As they make their way to the cuphead’s bag location, it is deep in the night so they can hide easily they stealthily make it to a tall building named “Inkwell City’s Rook Base” Bendy is confused but Cuphead Begins climbing the building “W-WHAT WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?” said bendy. “S-SHUT UP MY BAG IS HERE PLUS YOU ARE GOING TO GET US CAUGHT!!” screamed back Cuphead, he just continued to climb the building bendy sighed and also started to climb as well but the monster saw them climb slowly the monster used its height as an advantage instantly grabbing them both they were both spooked by this and Cuphead aimed his finger gun at the monster but then the monster helped them go to a window they both sighed with relief and calmed down They try to get the window open but struggle. “Get it open!” said Bendy “What do you think I'm doing?!” argued back Cuphead as he continued to try and open it but failed “FUCK THIS!!” clubhead aims his finger gun at the window and shoots it breaking it instantly. immediately alarms go off and Bendy starts getting worried “Dude grab whatever you got!!” says Bendy, cuphead rushes into the building and looks around he reads the badge number on his suit “0994..” Cup says while looking at a lockup number breaking it open taking a duffle bag and racing out. They immediately book it because they can start hearing helicopter dins The monster is a fast runner so they both catch a ride on it they show it where they're staying at the abandoned studio they are quick so no one sees them the monster being at its lowest hungry and thirsty just barely made it before he stumbles in, they take a quick moment but bendy seeing this gives it some homemade soup bendy made earlier “there there..” says bendy “we're home!”. Flowey frightened by them rushed in whimpering behind a couch “O-oh! H-hi guys! I thought you were The Inside” stuttered Flowey, “Nah we did get the bag, though right cup?” said Bendy, cuphead lifted up the bag in exhaustion because they almost got caught.

Cuphead after getting his breath back, checks his bag and sighs with relief he pulls out a picture frame and hugs it before putting it away now bendy sees this and only sees one thing, it is a picture of Cup with another person and it seems they were embracing that all he saw before cup put it away. Cuphead pulls out a couple of bottles, some clothes, a blue scarf, some keys and other things but then he pulls out 2 big cups almost as big as his head “What the hell?? Did you like kill your whole family or something?” asked Bendy, “actually these aren't heads they are my super arts I have three of them,” said Cuphead “Then why are there only two?” asked Bendy again, “in wearing the first one” said Cuphead. Bendy looks at the cup for a second before looking confused “Here let me show you..” clubhead grabs a Super art with the number 3 on it and smashes his face breaking his head and the Super Art, but before Bendy can freak out cuphead head reform and super art 1 appears in his hand “see?” Bendy nods thinking it is cool.

Thank you everyone for looking at my mini-story I felt like you guys needed a background before actually starting the ask and by the way…I AM STARTING THE ASKS SOON DONT WORRY HEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHE

Another groan as the seven iron skyrocketed another lump of grass. Much to your annoyance, it hadn’t been the first time today, it had been the millionth time. Remembering the words of your mother, once you get the hang of it, it will be exciting.

That day still had to come, the only thing that had been exciting that had happened so far was being fingered on the green. Though as fun as it was it had felt like a mirage. Having him disappear without another trace. 

Months had passed and you hadn’t seen him after that morning. It might have been that you had changed up your time slot. Avoiding all and any awkward encounters that might happen because of it.

Your friend Claire had chatted about him when you had pointed him out on one occasion. According to her Ransom Drysdale was a man who only took what he claimed was his. She had slept with him, but he wasn’t one to settle down and ask your hand in marriage material. He’d be the forever single bachelor, living his best frat boy lifestyle. 

Your experience had felt different, but it wasn't one you wanted to repeat. Having avoided your regular hours and changed the time of day had been a nice welcome. The quiet hours when the sun was slowly setting instead of rising. 

Here you stood like any other day standing on the green, frustrated with your ability to hit a ball straight. Trying to get in some practice for the Easter club cup. With a heavy sigh, you took the position, rocking your hips to see if the position was right and comfortable. Short movements of your wrist moving the iron in hand to see if it lined up for the aimed hit. 

With the right feel, you lifted the club, drew it back, and focused on the ball. With force the club fell, you could feel that this would be the money shot of the day. Your inner Phil Mickelson brought out the cheer inside. The clubhead collided with the ball sending it off into the air. Immediately setting course in the hit slice. 

“FORE!” You yelled out loudly as you watched the neon-colored ball head in the direction of another player. 

You had expected the man in question to dive down and shelter his head from potential impact. Instead, he looked up and reached out his hand to catch the ball. The distance had been quite far, but the infamous grin wasn’t one you had easily forgotten. 

For a split second, your heart stopped at the slicked hair and clean-shaven face. Not having encountered Ransom in such a long time. The wide grin was just as smug as he held up the ball in his hand.

Quickly giving him a polite wave as you scurried across the field. Cursing under your breath reminding yourself of why you should've taken a golf cart. Your legs simply wouldn’t be quick enough to run away from the man.

You managed to get on to the next hole without having him following you. Having carried on your game, forgetting the brief encounter with Ransom as you butchered your way across the course. 

Having reached the putting green, calculated your next move. Crouched down behind the ball with your putter in hand you took a note of how to hole the ball. 

“Hello tee, missed seeing you around.” You jumped at the scare of his voice. Your back straightened at the tensity of his greeting, refusing to look back at the man. “You’re going to pretend we’re strangers when I was kind enough to help you out last time you butchered the course.”

“Fuck off Ransom.”

“That’s not very polite to greet someone who’s being nice and returning your expensive golf ball, now is it?”

It made you look over your shoulder, watching him smirk as if he knew that would give him a reaction. Holding up your neon-colored ball he wiggled it between his fingers. 

You reached forward to grab it, but he held it up above his head. 

“Keep it.” You huffed, turning back and taking a few steps towards your aligned ball. 

“Draw the claws back kitten, because I’m not here to please your pussy. I’m genuinely just here to give you your ball back. The ball almost smashed my head. Remember?” 

“So dramatic. Would’ve been such a shame to see that face ruined.” You rolled your eyes at his comment. 

“Anyway, Linda told me your mother has paired us up for the Easter cup. Being an experienced golfer and all.” You could hear the smug tone of his voice, already feeling superior to your clumsy game. 

“I’m only looking for one bunny this Easter, Ransom, and it comes with batteries.” You huffed as you took another swing at the ball on the floor. The frustration must’ve done something as the golf ball spun through the air and over the small river bend. 

“Is that an invitation?”

Cookies & Cream

Summary: After running out of cookies, you bought Ransom some new ones.

Pairing: Ransom Drysdale x female reader

Words: 1296

Warnings: 18+ only, explicit content, explicit language, female receiving, fingering, penetrative sex, dirty talk. - if I forgot any, feel free to let me know.

A/N: MINORS DO NOT INTERACT! Got inspired by a tiktok video of a woman filling up the sweetes/candy drawer. Not my best work, but at least I enjoyed writing it. This is not beta read and only lightly proofread - all mistakes are my own.

Do not repost, translate or copy my work without my explicit permission. Reblogs, likes, comments or silent reading are all welcomed, but most of all enjoy!

By clicking ‘keep reading’, you agree to be 18 years or older!!!!

The shopping bag felt heavy in your hand while you walked through the front door. Getting rid of your drenched coat and shoes. Making your way through the modern mansion you were greeted by a comforting silence. Ransom hopefully had found the focus to work on his book.

You navigated your way through the darkness of the late autumnal afternoon hours. Finding a light source hitting the button. Placing the shopping bags on the counter. Your jeans uncomfortably sticking to your legs from getting damp from the pouring rain. Getting rid of the denim and kicking it aside on the heated kitchen tiles.

A confident thought rose that Ransom might not have noticed that you had ran out of cookies. The best source of inspiration, as he would say. You rolled your eyes thinking about it. You could think of one or two ways that had inspired him in the past, all involving your body.

Stuffing away all the shopping, you had decided to refill the draw of cookies and sweets. Filling up a container with your favourite sour pumpkins. Eating a few before you filled up the entire container, closing the lid and putting it back into place. Grabbing the next empty one and repeating the process.

The last four containers were reserved for Ransom’s precious cookies. Two for his beloved regular kind, the other two with the crème filled versions. One biscoff flavoured, the other vanilla. You smiled as you put them back in place.

You prepared the coffee piston, pushing down the coffee tamper on the freshly ground coffee. Placing the piston in place, you pressed the start button. Adding a piece of white biscoff flavoured chocolate, watching it melt as the coffee started pouring. As you waited you took a bite of the chocolate. It wasn’t as amazing as Ransom claimed it to be, but at least it reminded you of him.

When the cup was filled with the finest coffee, ruined by the chocolate inside, you grabbed a new pack of cookies and headed for the floating stairs. With each step the huffed groans of frustration became clearer. The aggressive tap of fingers hitting the keyboard almost made you giggle.

As soon as you peaked through the partially cracked open door, your heart ached. Ransom looked distraught and beyond frustrated. His hair all messed up, looking like he plucked it and ran his hand through the strands on numerous occasions.

“Are you going to keep staring?” He scoffed, aware of you standing outside his office.

“Can I interest you in a coffee and cookie break?” You asked, watching his eyes light up and lifting his head to meet your presence.

You walked towards him, placing the mug beside him. A silent question directed at him as your eyes glanced between him and the desk. He pushed off the edge, creating minimal space for you to slide in between.

The side of the mahogany wood pressing against your ass while you opened the pack of cookies. You took one out and Ransom moved forward, your knee raised pressing against his pants. His length was hard and throbbing against your knee.

Ari's showing up to your practice to beg you to come with him. And he'll do anything to convince you.

"Come for me, baby," Ari whispers, sucking hard on your clit. You arch off the table, gripping the crinkly paper on it, "I think you need to give me one more. Be a good girl and say yes."

MINAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! HOW DARE YOU ATTACK ME LIKE THIS.

Warnings: explicit language, explicit sexual content, oral (f receiving), fingering, hint at edging, hint at squirting, praise - if I missed any let me know.

Not beta read, all mistakes are my own. Around 450 words.

By clicking keep reading, you agree to be 18 years or older!!

“Yes, please.” Pleas fell from your lips, wanting the agony of the edging torture to be over.

“Good girl.” He praised, scissoring his fingers inside your walls. His lips barely having left your clit, the whisper adding to the sensational built of the coil in your stomach.

Ari’s surprise visits always were of an inconvenience and you probably had agreed to something stupid once again. Past visits had included joining a cooking class, skydiving, tantric couple massages, paintball with his friends (with you running around as the target) and pottery classes.

Your back arched of the table and your head dropped back. Both of your hands nestled on top of his head. Your fingers tugging at the roots of his hair with each delightful suck and lick.

His tongue teasing your pussy while his fingers actively pumped and curled inside you. The tip of his nose nudged your clit with a steady rhythm. If Ari Levinson knew one thing in life, it was how to pleasure a woman and make her see stars in every known universe.

The tremble of your legs starting as he kept building up your orgasm. A layered complexity, but one he had precisely measured and was in full control off. Your body reacted to him like it was his own. A blessing and a curse.

“So good.” You panted, “so close.”

A spur on to keep Ari going and letting him know you were almost there. With a flick of his wrist, he rubbed your clit while curling his large fingers inside you. Hovering over your squirming body, pushing down on your lower belly with his free hand.

He loved watching you break for him, around his cock or around his fingers. There was no preference to him as long as you gave him what he wanted.

“Yes, yes, yes. It will always be yes.” You screamed out, cumming all over his hand. Soaking the crinkled paper as he worked hard to extract every last drop from you. Working you through your high as your muscles relaxed again from the intensity.

“You better be home at 17:00 future Mrs. Levinson. Or I’ll be forced to have you agree to another wish of mine.” Ari smiled down at you, kissing your lips and sliding fingers out of your cunt.

“Wait. What?” You hoisted yourself onto your elbows.

“I’ll see you later, future Mrs. Levinson. So we can continue practicing the cervical exam for our honeymoon.” He brought his fingers to his lips, licking them clean, quickly glancing into the mirror before giving you a wink and walking out.

“Did I just agree to getting married?” Dumbfounded you let yourself fall back on to the table, just laying there for a second staring at the ceiling. When you slowly started to smile.

You’d been warned about your neighbour, Curtis Everett. You’d never imagined him becoming a friend the day you moved in next door. Friends, that is how it all started for you. You became companions over time, almost inseparable. Starting with regular movie nights, after you had mentioned never having seen Goodfellas. 

 He’d always vocalised his interest, his pure and honest emotions were something you could appreciate. They always felt so raw and he always seemed so sure of them. 

Here you were about to knock on his door for yet another movie night. One of your favourites and over time it became a weekly tradition. You were surprised to find the door unlocked and you stepped inside.

 “Curtis?” You called out, closing the door behind you.

 “Kitchen.” He yelled back. “Fuck. Shit!” You giggled, hearing metal fall to the floor followed by a string of swear words. You couldn’t help but snort out a laugh when you turned the corner, walking into his open layout kitchen. You unlocked your phone and took a picture of the complete mess you found Curtis in.

 “Call the newspaper, because Mr Everett finally figured out how to use his stove instead of ordering in.”

 “Oh shut it, Duchess.” He huffed, making you smile at the nickname he’d given you since the day you moved in. 

 “Need a hand?”

 “Nope. I need you to sit your pretty little ass down.”

 “Pretty little ass huh? Have you been checking it out?”

 “It’s no secret I have.” You noticed the uneasy shift in his body posture. “Please, pour yourself a glass of wine.”

 “I can certainly do that.” You spoke, reaching for the rack holding the wine glasses. Pulling two out and pouring you both a glass of red. “Are you sure you don’t need a hand?”

 “Positive. Please, sit down and let me struggle on my own, thank you.” 

 Laughing at his frustrated remark you took the filled glasses into the living room. Settling yourself on the large couch that always felt like a nice soft marshmallow mattress to doze off on.

 “So what are we watching tonight?” You asked.

 “Thought I might let you beat me at monopoly again.”

 “SERIOUSLY?” You chirped, shooting up from your position. Looking back at him.

 “Yes, seriously.” 

 “Hurry up, I’m excited to see you sulk and pout for the rest of the night.”

With your head buzzing from the alcohol you wandered the streets of the German city of Hamburg. Suzanne had taken you out to dinner after you had curated and assessed the possessed paintings of LaurentGroup. Forging the documents and making sure everything was in order for shipment elsewhere. 

You had learned quickly not to ask questions but would not complain about the perks and the pay. Little had you known you’d end up locked and chained in a dark room. Writhing on a mattress, as the metal shackles around your ankles would rattle. 

You greeted the doorman of the hotel and gave the receptionist a wave as you made your way toward the bar. A nightcap wouldn’t hurt anyone, but your own head in the morning. 

“The usual Miss Sunshine?” The bartender asked and placed a few sweet olives and assorted nuts on the bar. 

Nodding your confirmation as you took a seat on the barstool. Taking a few nuts between your fingers, smiling at the given nickname and it probably all was due to your yellow accented dress. The hotel was part of LaurentGroup and Suzette always ensured you were taken care of for every visit.

Looking over your shoulder you observed the thinned-out crowd. Two men still conversing in a pair of seats. You made eye contact with one of them, returning your gaze with a lopsided smirk. There was something entrancing about his presence. Darkness beckoned surrounded by charisma. His moustache and hair were groomed to perfection not a single hair out of place. 

It hadn’t been long until the man had introduced himself. Lloyd Hansen introduced himself as a freelance legal entrepreneur for LaurentGroup. A common ground since both of you indirectly worked for the company. Accepting another drink since the conversation seemed to flow nicely with no worries on your mind.

Finding Your Perfect First Set: A Beginner’s Guide to Choosing Golf Clubs

How to Choose the Right Golf Club Set as a Beginner

Starting your golf journey is an exciting experience, and selecting the right golf club set is a crucial step in ensuring you have a positive and productive start. As a beginner, navigating the options can feel overwhelming with so many brands, materials, and styles available. However, with the right guidance, you can choose a set that fits your needs, budget, and skill level. Here's a detailed guide to help you make an informed decision.

Understanding the Basics of Golf Clubs

Golf clubs come in several types, each designed for specific shots. A standard set typically includes:

Driver: Used for long-distance shots off the tee.

Fairway Woods: Ideal for long shots from the fairway.

Irons: Versatile clubs used for various distances.

Wedges: Specialized irons for short, precise shots and escaping tricky spots.

Putter: Essential for rolling the ball into the hole on the green.

As a beginner, you don’t need every club available. Focus on a basic set that includes a few versatile clubs to start with.

Factors to Consider When Choosing Your First Set

1. Pre-Packaged Sets vs. Custom Builds

Pre-Packaged Sets: These are beginner-friendly and include all the essential clubs, usually at a lower price. They are convenient and provide a good starting point.

Custom Builds: While more expensive, custom sets can be tailored to your height, swing speed, and playing style. This option is better suited for advanced players or those committed to long-term improvement.

2. Club Material

Graphite Shafts: Lightweight and flexible, ideal for beginners with slower swing speeds.

Steel Shafts: Heavier and more durable, providing better control for players with faster swings.

3. Forgiveness

Look for clubs with a larger "sweet spot" to minimize the impact of mishits. Beginner clubs often feature:

Cavity-Back Irons: Designed with a hollowed-out back for more forgiveness.

Perimeter-Weighted Clubs: Distribute weight around the edges to improve stability.

4. Club Length

Choosing clubs that fit your height and arm length is essential for comfortable play. Many beginner sets offer standard lengths, but you can also find options for taller or shorter players.

5. Budget

Beginner sets range from $300 to $800 on average. While it’s tempting to splurge, start with a reasonably priced set and upgrade as you improve.

What Should Be in a Beginner’s Golf Bag?

A beginner-friendly golf set should include the following:

Driver: Look for a driver with a larger clubhead and higher loft (10.5–12 degrees) to help get the ball airborne easily.

Fairway Wood: A 3-wood or 5-wood is versatile and easier to hit than lower-number woods.

Hybrid Clubs: Replace long irons (like the 3- or 4-iron) with hybrids, which are easier to use and more forgiving.

Irons: Include a selection of mid-irons (5-iron through 9-iron) for versatility across the course.

Wedges: A pitching wedge and sand wedge are essential for short shots and bunker play.

Putter: Opt for a mallet-style putter, which offers better balance and alignment aids for beginners.

Key Tips for Selecting Your First Set

1. Test Before You Buy

Many golf shops and courses offer demo days where you can try different clubs. Testing helps you determine which set feels the most comfortable.

2. Prioritize Comfort Over Brand

Don’t get swayed by brand names. Focus on clubs that feel good in your hands and suit your swing.

3. Consider Growth Potential

Choose a set that you can grow into as your skills improve. Avoid ultra-basic sets that you’ll quickly outgrow.

4. Seek Professional Advice

Golf pros or experienced players can provide valuable insights and recommendations tailored to your needs.

5. Buy Used if Necessary

If you're unsure about committing to new equipment, consider purchasing a quality used set. Many stores offer certified pre-owned clubs at a fraction of the cost.

How to Maintain Your Clubs

Once you've invested in your first set, proper care will extend their lifespan and performance:

Clean Regularly: Wipe down clubheads after every round and clean grooves with a soft brush.

Store Properly: Keep clubs in a dry, temperature-controlled area to prevent rust or warping.

Use Headcovers: Protect the driver and woods with headcovers to avoid scratches.

Best Beginner Golf Club Brands

Several brands cater to beginners with affordable, forgiving, and reliable sets. Popular options include:

Callaway Strata: Known for its affordability and quality.

Wilson Profile: Offers sets tailored to different heights and skill levels.

Tour Edge Bazooka: Provides forgiving clubs for new players.

Cobra Fly-XL: Lightweight and user-friendly.

TaylorMade RBZ SpeedLite: A premium choice for beginners looking for advanced features.

Conclusion

Choosing the right golf club set as a beginner is about finding a balance between comfort, performance, and budget. By understanding the basics, considering key factors, and seeking expert advice, you’ll be well on your way to selecting a set that helps you build confidence and enjoy the game. Remember, your first set doesn’t have to be perfect—what matters is that it fits your needs and makes the game accessible and fun. So grab your clubs, hit the course, and let the adventure begin!

Q1: What makes Ben Sayers golf clubs perfect for beginners?

The Ben Sayers' line of golf clubs is highly recognized for being forgiving, lightweight, and affordable, thus being perfect for beginners. Clubs like the M8 set help provide all the main needs required for one to start playing, assisting beginners in controlling their shots to build confidence in courses.

Q2: Will Ben Sayers clubs be good for low-handicap golfers?

Generally, Ben Sayers clubs cater to the beginning and intermediate golfer; however, their XF Pro range provides different options for those higher-skilled golfers. More advanced golfers that like forgiveness and control with their clubs may find the Ben Sayers equipment quite suitable for their game.

Q3: How is the quality of Ben Sayers versus the other leading brands?

Ben Sayers produces very high-quality equipment, mostly performance-oriented, durable, and at least in the entry to mid-range category. Where the Callaway or Titleist company would probably sell the high-end options, Ben Sayers offers great value for money-the person who is hunting for quality but does not want it to come at a hefty price.

Q4: What is the difference between Ben Sayers XF Red and XF Black series?

Both the XF Red and XF Black series are designed for forgiving clubs for golf players. The XF Black series driver, for instance, contains a higher MOI that makes it simpler to hit straighter shots.

Q5: Does Ben Sayers sell their clubs individually, or does it have to be bought in a set?

Of course, Ben Sayers offers complete sets and even some individual clubs can be selected separately for golfers. The M8 set can be bought as a full package but in XF Pro series the irons and drivers are available individually so as to provide mixing and matching.

The Role of Technology in Houston’s Beginner Golf Lessons

Golf is a game of precision, strategy, and continuous improvement, and in recent years, technology has played an increasingly significant role in helping golfers refine their skills, especially for beginners. Whether you are just starting out or looking to improve your game, technology can provide valuable insights, real-time feedback, and tailored guidance that can accelerate your learning process. In Houston, where golf courses are plentiful and the climate is favorable year-round, the integration of technology in golf lessons has transformed how both instructors and students approach the game.

In this article, we’ll explore the various ways technology is enhancing beginner golf lessons in Houston, and how you can leverage these innovations to improve your skills more effectively.

1. Video Swing Analysis: Seeing Is Believing

One of the most widely used technologies in beginner golf lessons Houston is video swing analysis. For beginners, visualizing the mechanics of their swing is often the first step toward improvement. Video analysis provides a detailed, side-by-side comparison of your swing against ideal models, allowing instructors to give you specific feedback.

How it works:

Slow-motion Video: Your instructor will record your swing using high-definition cameras, often from multiple angles. The footage is then analyzed frame by frame, showing every aspect of your swing in slow motion.

Analysis Software: Advanced software like Hudl Technique or Swing Catalyst allows instructors to draw lines on the video to highlight key angles and body positions during your swing. This software can even compare your swing to that of professional golfers or other students.

Real-Time Feedback: By watching your swing on video, you can quickly understand what needs to be adjusted, whether it’s your grip, posture, or the path of your club. This helps make technical adjustments easier to grasp, especially for beginners.

Benefits for beginners:

Instant visual feedback helps you identify mistakes and make corrections quickly.

You can track improvements over time by comparing your current swing with past recordings.

It builds a stronger understanding of the biomechanics of a good swing.

In Houston, many golf courses and practice facilities offer video swing analysis as part of their beginner golf lessons Houston packages. This technology provides an engaging way to monitor progress and refine your technique.

2. Launch Monitors: Understanding Power and Precision

For beginners looking to improve their long game (driving and fairway shots), launch monitors are incredibly valuable tools. These devices track the ball’s flight path and provide data on various metrics that help instructors and students understand the mechanics of a shot.

How it works:

Tracking Metrics: Launch monitors, such as Track Man, Foresight Sports, and Flight Scope, measure important metrics like ball speed, launch angle, spin rate, carry distance, and clubhead speed.

Real-Time Data: During a lesson, the launch monitor provides instant feedback on each shot, giving beginners a clear idea of how changes to their swing affect their ball flight.

Custom Fitting: Launch monitors can also help with club fitting, ensuring that the beginner is using the right equipment based on their swing characteristics. This can make a significant difference in the performance of a new golfer.

Benefits for beginners:

It helps identify how changes in your swing (such as your grip or stance) impact your shot.

Beginners can see real-time data and adjust their technique on the spot, which helps solidify proper form faster.

Launch monitors provide a measurable way to track improvements in distance, accuracy, and consistency.

In Houston’s climate, where year-round golfing is possible, many golf instructors use launch monitors at driving ranges and practice facilities. These devices allow beginners to get immediate feedback on their performance, helping them to improve faster and understand their strengths and weaknesses.

3. Virtual Golf Simulators: Playing Indoors, Learning Anytime

While outdoor lessons are great for experiencing the real game, virtual golf simulators offer a unique way for beginners to practice indoors—especially in Houston’s summer heat or during rainy days. These simulators use advanced sensors and software to recreate a realistic golf course experience, enabling beginners to practice at their own pace and convenience.

How it works:

Simulating Golf Courses: Virtual simulators, such as Full Swing or SkyTrak, create lifelike simulations of famous golf courses or custom-designed ones. The system tracks the golf ball as you hit it, calculating factors like trajectory, spin, and distance to display a realistic ball flight.

Shot Analysis: The simulator provides feedback on each shot, much like a launch monitor, helping beginners understand their performance.

Practice Drills: Many simulators come with practice modes that allow players to focus on specific aspects of their game, such as putting, chipping, or driving. Some even offer challenges and skill-building exercises designed for beginners.

Benefits for beginners:

Virtual simulators allow you to practice and improve without needing to be on a real golf course. This is perfect for beginners looking to refine their game at their convenience.

The ability to practice indoors provides protection from Houston’s intense heat or inclement weather, allowing for consistent practice.

Beginners can learn course management, shot strategy, and get a feel for the game’s pacing in a low-pressure environment.

Many Houston-based golf courses and private clubs offer virtual simulators for lessons, so beginners can get in additional practice time without worrying about the weather.

4. Golf GPS Apps and Wearable Tech: Data in Your Pocket

In today’s digital world, smartphones and wearable technology can play a key role in helping beginners learn the game and improve their skills. Golf GPS apps and wearable tech provide valuable insights into both your swing and course management, helping you make smarter decisions and track your performance over time.

How it works:

Golf GPS Apps: Apps like Golfshot, GolfLink, and 18Birdies provide detailed course maps, distances to hazards, and shot tracking. These tools are particularly useful for beginners learning the ropes of golf course management, helping them plan their shots more effectively.

Wearable Devices: Smartwatches and devices like Arccos Caddie or Shot Scope track your performance by collecting data on your shots, distances, and even swing speed. They give instant feedback and detailed statistics on your performance, helping you identify patterns and areas to focus on.

Benefits for beginners:

GPS apps help beginners understand the layout of the course, distances to hazards, and pin locations, making the game less overwhelming and more strategic.

Wearables track key metrics such as swing speed, shot distances, and accuracy, allowing beginners to identify areas for improvement.

These devices also offer insights into your consistency and help you improve your shot-making and decision-making skills over time.

By using this technology during lessons or while playing, beginners in Houston can enhance their understanding of course management and performance analysis. This data-driven approach to golf can accelerate learning and give you a deeper understanding of your game.

5. Interactive Golf Lessons and Online Instruction

For beginners looking to supplement in-person lessons, online golf lessons and interactive instructional tools have become increasingly popular. Platforms like Golf Digest Schools, Skillest, and YouTube allow beginners to access lessons from professional instructors anytime, anywhere.

How it works:

Video Lessons: These platforms offer video tutorials on everything from the basics of the golf swing to advanced techniques. You can watch lessons at your convenience, review them as many times as needed, and follow along with practice drills.

Virtual Coaching: Some platforms, such as Skillest, allow you to send videos of your swing to a professional coach for remote feedback. You can receive personalized tips and drills based on your recorded swings.

Interactive Tools: Many instructional apps provide step-by-step drills and tips that help beginners focus on specific aspects of their game, such as putting, chipping, or driving.

Benefits for beginners:

Online lessons allow for flexible learning and offer access to a wide range of instructional content at an affordable price.

Virtual coaching provides personalized feedback without the need for in-person lessons, making it a cost-effective supplement to your training.

Interactive tools help beginners practice and refine their skills at their own pace, with guidance from professional coaches.

For beginners in Houston, combining in-person lessons with online resources can help accelerate the learning process and provide a comprehensive understanding of the game.

Conclusion
