#ethan x mc headcanon

[potionsprefect]

I found this beautiful little poem and it immediately made me think of Ethan and MC! So, prompt time! Turn this into something! Ficlet, edit, headcanon, whatever you want! I wanna see how you interpret this! Have fun! ❤️❤️❤️

Bex! I am so so sorry this has taken me so long to answer! I hope you like what I’ve done.

Important Words

Ethan had gotten up early for work and so Victoria woke to an empty bed.

She took a quick shower and got dressed, heading into the kitchen to make some breakfast.

Victoria looked on the kitchen island and found a piece of paper.

She recognised Ethan’s handwriting.

I saw this and thought of you the note said.

It was a poem, one that warmed Victoria’s heart.

She really did marry the most kind and thoughtful man on the planet.

Making herself a coffee, she headed out the door.

Ethan would be getting a very passionate kiss once she got to work.

A very short but sweet head canon, I hope you liked it!

How would your MC / Ethan cope if they ended up divorced? Would they be friendly after? If they had kids could they coparent together well?

I am genuinely obsessed with this question because I've been meaning to write a MC/Ethan divorced fic for a while, but here is my HC.

Generally, I don't think they would be good at being divorced. In my HC, Ethan and Charlie are very good at breaking up, but they're not good at staying broken up. I don't think that would change if they got divorced. Even if they remained separated for the rest of their lives, they would continue to be the "one that got away," and would likely have periods of romantic involvement over their lifetime. At their most toxic, they would be the couple screaming at each other over the division of assets and then making up and pausing the divorce that weekend. Generally, I see them as the couple that just doesn't stay apart, even if they have to change the nature of their relationship.

If they didn't have children, they would be very, very messy. They would always want to respect each other, especially professionally, but I see them getting messy -- torrid affairs just to break up a few months later, starting fights just to have a reason to talk, using others to make them jealous, moving away just to come back home to the other, etc. Particularly around the dissolution of the marriage, they would be very argumentative and make some pretty deep wounds as they lashed out. I could see them mellowing out after a few years, finding a way to respect each other, and settling for something between life apart and life together. I think they would do well with a relationship like the one he had with Harper -- friends who love each other and maintain separate lives while remaining involved.

If they had children, they would put in a lot more effort and at least keep their mess out of their children's view. Especially given Ethan's childhood trauma, they would go to great lengths to minimize the trauma to their children. Instead of wallowing in their anger, I think they'd lean into their despair and disappointment. The divorce would be amicable, and any disagreements would happen out of sight. As much as they suffered, they would feel great pressure to keep it to themselves, and I wouldn't be surprised if they set unrealistic expectations of how perfectly they had to separate and felt tremendous guilt when they failed. If they got divorced, I think it would have to be over their fundamental disagreements on how they wanted their lives to go -- how much should they work? How do they raise their children? Who gives and who takes? For that reason, it would likely be more difficult to reconcile, and they'd be very hesitant to get their children's hopes up.

But they would make sure they were present for all the big moments, and their intentional respect and amicability would likely turn to friendship. Even if they had other partners, I think there would always be a bond between them, and truly, I would not be surprised if they worked out their differences and remarried at a later date.

What Could Have Been

Series Premise: When Ethan breaks his promise, Cassie is forced to accept they’re not inevitable after all.

Book: Open Heart Pairing: Ethan Ramsey x F!MC (Cassie Valentine) Rating/Category: Teen. Angst Words: 680

Chapter 1: Promises Made. Promises Broken A return and the end of something special before it could begin.

A/N1: This series doesn’t follow my headcanon and is closer to book 2 canon. Like my hc, Ethan and Cassie are together briefly before he leaves for the Amazon. However in Lia Land, what happens after his return is always the divergence point.

A/N2: I'm using @choicesflashfics week 41, prompt 2

Her heart was broken, shattered like glass by his disdain. The words delivered in a cold, emotionless tone, sounding so unlike the man she’d fallen in love with.

For one second, Cassie Valentine wondered if it was a bad dream, like the kind she’d had while he was in the Amazon. All the doubts she tried to push away during the busy daylight hours had returned tenfold to haunt her dreams.

Where Ethan Ramsey falls for another woman, someone more beautiful and smarter than her. His equal in every way that she wasn’t. Despite their promises to each other in the departure hall of Boston’s Logan Airport and the night before in his bed.

“Consider us reset. I won’t cross boundaries with you again.”

But it wasn’t a dream. Ethan was deadly serious. Those blue eyes that had glittered with passion and laughter two months ago now stared at her so full of ice she shivered despite the warm summer night.

Everything he said tonight was logical. His concern for her career. His doubts about being able to push her to excel if they were involved romantically.

This was wrong, she thought, her heart rate accelerating as panic set in. This was not how their love story was supposed to be. They couldn’t just end before they’d had a chance to truly begin.

She’d promised to wait for him, and he’d vowed to come back to her. Only he hadn’t. He was breaking his promise as cruelly as he destroyed their love.

Cassie wanted to lean in, kiss his lips, remind him of what they meant to each other. But she held back. He had closed himself off from her. The distance in his stance was a slap in the face after everything they’d been through.

She felt the tears prick her eyes and knew she was close to breaking down. To beg Ethan to change his mind. Take her back.

But Ethan looked away from her, turning back to his drink.

Her gaze zigzagged across the empty beer garden, taking in every detail. The persistent flicker of a single light bulb. The sad tune of a country song drifting from the jukebox inside.

She needed to leave. To walk away with her dignity intact. They said love and hate were two sides of the same coin. And now she knew how true that was.

“Okay,” she said, clearing her throat. Her voice was gruff from unshed tears. “I get it. I’ll see you tomorrow, Dr. Ramsey.”

Cassie forced herself to slide off the bench, turn around and walk back inside.

She had no idea how she made it as far as the T station before the tears began to fall. Functioning on autopilot, she stepped inside the subway car that pulled into the platform and stepped off when she reached her station.

She wrapped her arms around herself and began the two-block walk home.

Home. She just had to get home, and everything would be fine.

She put one step before the other until she ran up the brownstone steps and into the elevator.

Quietly unlocking the apartment door, she breathed a sigh of relief at the silence and low light in the hallway. It meant everyone else had gone to bed, and she was saved from having to explain the state she was in.

Cassie shuffled to her bedroom and closed the door, leaning against it for a few seconds. She took deep breaths, but a low wailing sound escaped her lips. An indescribable grief descended upon her like a shadow, and tears cascaded hotly down her cheeks.

She believed they were inevitable, destined to be together despite the odds. But now she knew it was as false as his promises to her.

Not everything can be butterflies and rainbows. Things get hard sometimes. That’s just how it is, she thought, hardening her heart.

She stretched out on the bed and willed herself to dream of what was because tomorrow was the first day of the rest of her life without Ethan and what could’ve been.

Do you think anyone is left handed? XD ooh, how does their handwriting look like? I have a hc that Aaron has dysleyia and thus never learned how to read fluently. But he still likes to read sometimes x) What are yours?

How do boys write?

Hi! How are you? I hope you are well! ^^

Here is the headcanon you requested, I hope you enjoy it! ^^

I like the idea of Aaron being dyslexic. What's more, I doubt he learned to read and write as a child. It wasn't common at the time and Aaron was born at a rather complicated time in medieval history (between war, famine and a plague that had been over for a few decades but still had consequences). So I doubt that his little mother would have found the time, money and opportunity to teach him to read and write (although she would have had to know how to read and write herself, and given the literacy rate among women at the time, that's highly unlikely). Aaron must surely have learned to read and write later, perhaps by joining his wolf pack.

Dyslexia would probably not have been detected, not only because the word didn't exist, but also because someone who had difficulty reading and writing wouldn't have seemed surprising.

However, Dyslexia could be detected at the manor. If Ethan has any knowledge on the subject it would be possible. If not, with a dyslexic MC themselves. I think that would be the most coherent because I can't think of any reason why Ethan should have been interested in the Dys disorder.

Take care of yourself and have a nice day! ^^

Vladimir :

Vladimir is right-handed, but he can write with his left hand if necessary. His handwriting is not disastrous with his left hand, but it is even slower than when he writes with his right hand.

His handwriting is beautiful and neat, but he writes very slowly, even when he's in a hurry. This is because he needs to concentrate a lot to have a neat handwriting. If he tries to write faster his handwriting tends to become illegible (something his teachers used to reproach him for when he was a child (while asking him to write faster)).

He writes quite small. As a result, he generally doesn't take up much space on a sheet of paper. His letters are very tight and his handwriting tends to lean to the left of the page. He can write in Braille. He learnt it so that he could talk to Raphaël when they were still exchanging letters.

He always signs with his surname, which is rather unusual for a vampire given that the majority of them only sign with their first name, but Vladimir is incapable of not using his, it's far too important to him to give it up.

He is the one in the manor who masters the most different languages, especially when it comes to the written word (this is due to his education). He can easily read and write texts in French, English and Italian, as well as German, Hungarian and Latin. He makes very few spelling mistakes in these languages and is usually the one to go to if someone has a grammatical or spelling question. He can also read Old English. He also reads Russian and Ancient Greek easily (although with a little more difficulty for the latter).

As he is very clumsy, writing requires a lot of concentration (he probably suffers from dyspraxia but has never been diagnosed for this). But that doesn't mean he doesn't enjoy writing. In fact, he loves writing. The other members of the manor have already offered to buy him a typewriter so that he can continue to write his stories with less fatigue, but Vladimir thinks that the quality of his writing is not worth the expense.

Béliath :

Béliath is right-handed. He can write with his left hand if he really needs to, but in that case he writes very badly, much to his dismay. So if he gets injured and can no longer use his right hand, he will usually ask others to write for him (and the best choice is Ivan or Vladimir).

Béliath writes mainly in cursive and his handwriting is quite ancient. He's not particularly aware of it, because that's how his sister taught him to write, several centuries ago, and he's never thought of changing the way he writes, even less since the people at Moondance have been complimenting him on the beauty of his handwriting. It's true that his handwriting is very pretty and rather neat, and the letters are spaced far enough apart not to be unpleasant to read. He sometimes boasts about it to the others at the manor, and it has to be said that he easily has one of the most beautiful handwritings.

He writes rather quickly (no doubt because of the invitations to his parties, which he has to write by hand since Vladimir refuses to buy a computer and a printer), while keeping his handwriting legible for everyone. His handwriting tends to lean to the right of the page.

Its writing is neither too small nor too large. The letters are easy to read and different enough not to be confused with each other when reading.

Like most vampires and supernatural creatures, he signs with his first name. He doesn't really have a surname anyway, unless you consider Son of Asmodeus to be a family name. His signature is rather complex, with a lot of interlacing around his first name, which makes for a rather complicated signature to reproduce.

He can write in several different languages with varying degrees of spelling ability. He has a perfect command of the demonic language his sister taught him, he can write in Latin and his French and English are not bad (if you ignore the fact that he never uses accents in French). As for the rest, he generally speaks them much better than he writes them.

Ivan :

Ivan is right-handed and can't write with his left hand. It's illegible every time. He tries to practise, though, because he thinks it's cool to be able to write well with both hands, but he can't really do it. If he gets injured and can't write with his right hand, he'll try to write with his left before giving up and asking Vladimir or Beliath for help.

His handwriting is simple, not pretty, but perfectly legible for everyone. It's a quality he really appreciates, because Aaron has already told him that he prefers his handwriting to Beliath's. Ivan has rarely been so proud of himself, after all, everyone in the manor recognises that Beliath's handwriting is pretty.

He can write quickly when he needs to, but this affects the legibility of his handwriting, so he avoids doing so most of the time. He also has a tendency to write quite large, which means that he generally needs a lot more paper to write a text than the other members of the manor.

He has asked Vladimir and Raphaël to teach him to write and read in Braille. He still wants to be able to communicate with Raphaël, even if he leaves the manor, and he would like to be able to read the little stories that Raphaël writes himself and not always have to ask Raphaël to read them for him. He still has a bit of trouble reading quickly, but he's getting better at it, although writing in Braille is still very difficult for him.

He has kept the signature he had before his death, so he continues to sign with his surname, signing with his first name seems strange and… unpleasant. It's not that he doesn't like his first name, but he thought he'd be using his family name signature for decades to come, and having to give it up so soon is still too painful for him.

He can only write in French, although Vladimir persists in trying to teach him at least English (at first Vladimir wanted to teach him Latin). Ivan makes relatively few spelling mistakes (which he's proud of, given that Ethan makes more spelling mistakes than he does in French).

Aaron :

Aaron is normally left-handed, but at the time he was born it was very much frowned upon. So he was forced to learn to use his right hand to work, write and fence, which didn't help his handwriting, which was already difficult to read, and he was much more awkward using his right hand to fight with a sword. Today, he has stopped using his right hand for writing and fencing and has become much more skilful.

He had to concentrate to achieve a beautiful handwriting. The shapes of his letters are simpler than Beliath's because he favours ease of reading over beauty. He also writes quite slowly and never tries to write faster. He knows that writing faster only makes his text more illegible.

Like most supernatural creatures, Aaron signs with his first name. His signature is quite simple, and he sees no point in trying to embellish it with interlacing or lines. For him, it's a waste of time and doesn't fit in with his idea of a signature that should remain legible. After all, with all the interlacing that Beliath puts around his first name, he sometimes finds it hard to read his signature.

Aaron speaks far more languages than he writes, particularly Elvish, and is the only member of the manor to do so. He has a tendency to make a lot of spelling mistakes, but in his defence, between language changes and spelling reforms, he never knows where to turn. He barely has time to understand a spelling rule before humans are happy to change it straight away. He only spells Spanish. For the rest, he always asks Vladimir.

Despite the difficulties, Aaron loves to write and read poetry. Along with Raphaël, he probably owns the largest number of poetry collections. However, he is quite precise about the books he looks for: the text must not be too small and the lines must be spaced far enough apart to be pleasant to read. That's one of the reasons why he doesn't really like Vladimir's old books: the writing is too small and he has a hard time distinguishing between the lines.

Raphaël :

Raphaël is totally ambidextrous, but as a child he was left-handed. His parents insisted that he write with his right hand, but he didn't really want to, so as soon as they weren't watching him he would write with his left hand again. He eventually learned to use his right hand for writing and fencing, but this was only to surprise people who thought he was only left-handed.

When Raphaël was writing in cursive, he loved writing poetry, especially for Margarita and Alessio, who regularly received poetry from Raphaël. He still loves to write, but now he uses a slate and stylus to write in Braille. In fact, he always carries a slate and stylus with him in case he needs to write down an idea somewhere other than his bedroom or the library. The problem is that he always ends up forgetting the paper somewhere.

He found Braille much easier to learn to read than to learn to write. This is because to write braille text, you have to write it the other way round, as the dots are made on the back of the page. It wasn't at all instinctive at first and he got it wrong more than once. Now he's quite happy to be teaching Ivan to write in Braille.

He always signs with his first name and his signature hasn't changed much, but it's still complex to reproduce. There is a lot of interlacing around his first name and the capital R is huge compared to the other letters.

He likes to exchange messages with Vladimir and Ivan, as only the three of them can read them, they usually use them to prepare surprises for the others or to complain that so-and-so has forgotten to clean up again or that Ethan keeps slamming doors.

Raphaël is not bad at spelling and grammar, not as good as Vladimir, but unlike Vladimir, he doesn't read grammar books for pleasure. He can speak more languages than he can read and write. But he reads and writes easily in English, Latin, Italian and French.

He reads a lot, and is one of the biggest readers in the manor. When he first arrived, he only had Braille books, which limited his reading possibilities because they were big books and didn't always cover the subjects that interested him. The arrival of Ivan, introduced him to audio books. He listens to a lot of them now, especially romance novels, and loves the fact that he can listen to books while lying comfortably in bed or cooking.

Ethan :

Ethan is left-handed and he really can't write with his right hand. It has to be said that it never occurred to him to try, and his parents never tried to force him to write with his right hand either. If he gets injured and can no longer write with his left hand, he always asks Beliath to write for him.

Ethan's handwriting is not legible. His "a's" look like "e's" or "o's", his "u's", "i's" and "n's" also look very similar, he never dots his "i's", so they can also be mistaken for "l's", and when he writes in French, he doesn't use the slightest accent, whereas he does in Finnish. It's an ordeal for everyone in the manor to reread what he's written, and Aaron doesn't even try anymore. The only one who manages to read it is Beliath.

He writes very small, which doesn't make it easy to read his handwriting, and he also writes quite quickly. He doesn't like writing anyway, his texts are full of abbreviations and drawings to speed things up, and he's the only one who can decipher the notes he takes. If he can do maths for the sake of doing maths, sitting down to write is an ordeal for him. He doesn't have the patience for it.

Like most vampires, he signs with his first name, a habit he picked up fairly recently after arriving at the manor. His signature is rather simple, with few lines and no interlacing, he framed it with just two lines. The main thing for him was that it was quick to make.

He is quite good at spelling, although his handwriting is not very legible. He writes and reads texts easily in Finnish, English, German and French. He can also read a simple text in Latin… if he has no choice, really, no choice.

He has no idea why everyone finds his handwriting difficult to read. He finds that what he writes is always perfectly legible.

Neil :

Neil is right-handed. He can write with his left hand, he even writes quite well, but he doesn't feel comfortable with it at all. So he will always write right-handed unless he really has no choice.

He's always had a nice handwriting, and that's even truer now that writing has become easy and enjoyable. Before, writing wasn't really something that could be described as enjoyable, given the difficulty of the task. He generally prefers to use a beautiful fountain pen for writing, and doesn't hesitate to buy the most expensive ones. He always has one with him in a small box and several in his desk drawers, and tends to change fountain pens according to his mood.

He always writes in a cursive script that looks rather ancient. There is a lot of curl, especially in the capital letters. His letters are easy to distinguish from one another and the words are spaced far enough apart not to give the impression that the text is cramped. His handwriting always leans very slightly to the right.

His signature is elegant and simpler than his usual handwriting. He always signed with his first name.

He has the impression that the rules of spelling and grammar are constantly changing, as are the meanings of words. He tries to follow them, though, because he doesn't like making mistakes, but he gets tired of constantly having to unlearn what he's learned.

The language he knows best is still Irish, and although he has completely lost the habit of speaking Old Irish, he can still read it easily, as well as Middle Irish and Modern Irish.

He also reads and writes in many other languages without difficulty. The languages he knows best apart from Irish are: English, Greek and Ancient Greek, Latin, French, as well as German, Italian, Spanish and Scottish Gaelic. He can also read and follow a simple discussion in Arabic, Mandarin and Russian. To his dismay, knowing so many languages is more of a problem than anything else, and he tends to switch languages when he can't find the right word in the one he spoke before, which means he loses most of the people he's talking to.

Léandra :

Léandra is left-handed. However, she can write with her right hand if she needs to. Before teaching Beliath to write, she had never written with her right hand. She forced herself to write with her right hand, seeing that it was the one her little brother used all the time; she wanted it to be easier for him to copy her movements that way.

She doesn't really take care of her handwriting. However, if she forces herself, she can have very pretty handwriting, but it's not something that interests her. For her, writing has to be practical before it's pretty; she writes to get a message across or to give information, so she doesn't really see the point of trying to turn it into a work of art.

Léandra is used to writing fast and big. She doesn't think writing should take up too much of her time. In fact, she's never understood how her little brother could enjoy spending so much time writing beautiful letters.

She always signs with her first name and her signature is quite complex. There's a lot of interlacing that surrounds her, like a shield around her signature.

She is quite good at spelling, having taught Beliath to read and write in several different languages, including the demonic one.

She is fluent in several different languages, written and especially spoken. She can write and read demonic, English, Italian and Latin texts with ease. For the rest, she much prefers an oral discussion. This is not to say that she would be unable to write in other languages, just that she sees no point in learning their spelling if she can manage in an oral discussion.

Farah :

Farah is right-handed, but she can write with her left hand if she has problems. However, this affects the quality of her writing, which is harder to read.

Her handwriting is simple but neat. Her brother taught her to write, shortly after they left home. She's happy to be able to read and write, of course, but writing has never been an activity she's been keen on: sitting down for several minutes to write a letter always seems horribly boring to her. Whereas reading, may not be her favourite thing to do, but she'll never turn down a new book, especially a fantasy one.

Her letters are mainly in block letters, as she finds cursive writing too time-consuming. She generally writes fairly large and fairly quickly.

Her signature is very simple: she signs only with her first name, without adding the slightest line or interlacing around it. She clearly doesn't see the point and doesn't want to spend any more time signing than she has to.

As she has travelled a lot with her pack, she speaks and reads a lot of different languages, but this is less the case when it comes to writing. In any case, she doesn't always have the necessary writing materials with her and she always loses her notepads or pens when she does have them. She can write Latin and Spanish fairly easily, but the rest is much more complicated. She rarely masters the written word in other languages, even though she can read them. For example, she can read texts in English, Italian and French without being able to write in those languages. And although she can hold a discussion in Arabic, Swedish and German, she is unable to read or write a text in these languages.

my take on the entire ethan x tobias as a couple discourse that’s been going around the fandom even though literally no one asked :)

honestly, personally i always thought of ethan & tobias having more than just a friendship in the past. now i haven’t played book2 in a while but i do remember thinking —- okay so we can all agree that those two were more than just very good & platonic friends right? but even if you don’t agree, that’s fine. people are allowed to have their own hcs on ethan’s character and who his potential exes are. hell, i hc ethan’s family as being completely different from canon—- so who am i to speak on what headcanons people should or shouldn’t have.

that being said, it becomes a fucking issue when people try to push this narrative of ‘platonic love’ all of a sudden. suddenly all these people come out of the fucking woodworks saying shit like ‘well, what about platonic love? what about the importance of male friendships?’ and to that i just have to say…. do you truly believe that MALE FUCKING FRIENDSHIPS are more underrepresented in the media than queer relationships? really? also where’s this energy for male and female friendships? why don’t you make your mcs be solely platonic with ethan and have neither side have any sort of feelings? where’s the importance of platonic friendship then?

Sweet Relief

Book: Open Heart (book 1)

Warnings: sexual content (masturbation)

Rating: Mature

Category: Angsty smut

Word count: 1046

Summary: Ethan’s secret has been discovered and he invites Casey to his apartment to fill her in on the details. This is all from Ethan’s perspective.

Disclaimer: Characters, any dialogue (actual and paraphrased) belong to Pixelberry.

Authors note: I have done the edges of this scene in other works but thanks @jamespotterthefirst and your replay of book one that planted the seed for this fic. In my headcanon Ethan knows he is physically attracted to her at this point and he has certainly handled things whilst thinking about Casey but this chapter he really learns he can trust her and starts a reprieve in the thoughts of “I can not and I will not”, well at least until after Miami anyway.

🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼

“If you want me to keep this secret, you need to tell me what this is?”

“Not here, can you come to my unit after your shift today and I will fill you in.”

“Of course Ethan”

The conversation had been swirling in his head since Casey had stumbled upon him and Naveen in the under construction wing of the hospital. A part of him suspected that she would have found him out, a few weeks prior she had seen him near the construction zone and if he was being honest surprised it took him this long but now someone knew the secret he had been keeping and it was disconcerting. Casey was not just any intern though, she was someone who he was developing some type of feeling for. As much as he told himself it was a Neurochemical response to stress because she was an Intern but she was not. She had compassion, a willingness to learn not just generally but from any errors and he could tell that she really wants the spot.

He spent most of the afternoon questioning his decision to meet at his apartment. He had his own office but there was no guarantee they would not be interrupted, even if he did stay back after his shift. There would also be too many prying eyes at Derry’s. So his home was the only choice. He arrived home and had a quick bite. For some reason he was nervous. Sure he had pleasured himself to many thoughts of how he would pleasure her if given the opportunity but he knew he could not give in. Another thing that had him concerned was whether he could trust her. A part of him felt he could. There had been no hoards of interns demanding coffee from his private machine and no one had hounded him this afternoon about secretly treating Naveen but still this was next level. He had trusted people for sure, Naveen, Harper but those trusts were hard earned and developed over time but this was different. This is someone he had barely met and was only just beginning to know.

He looks at his watch and notes that it is nearly time for Casey to arrive. He got the wine ready whilst chastising himself for creating a social atmosphere. After a few minutes there is a buzz on his intercom. He lets Casey in.

“This is a good view”

In that moment all I can think about is what I want to do with her against the window. The thoughts of impropriety were still there but he recovered enough to say “I am rarely here to enjoy it.”

We sit down, she asks about Naveen. I tell her how he had been unwell, initially putting it down to seasonal illness but it got worse. I started tracking the symptoms and things started to be contradictory and worsening. I confronted Naveen and he agreed to let me treat him in secret. When some of the symptoms became too difficult to hide he quit. He wanted to go on a beach somewhere and enjoy what time he had left but persuaded him to keep being treated. I have kept him in the wing you found us. She puts her hand on my knee. I want to take it further but I am also enjoying the sensation of her hand on my knee. I make no effort to remove it. We discuss Naveen, his symptoms and progression especially. I am professionally impressed. As the evening goes on I feel lighter,less burdened. The time comes for Casey to leave. As she leaves she tells me that I am no longer alone. I am taken aback, it is a relief in a way that I now have someone to share information with in relation to Naveen but I could not help but catch a secondary meaning. Had she picked up on my inner turmoil that I have had all evening in relation to her? Or was I reading into it?

I switch to scotch, thoughts again drifting to what I wish I could be doing. I head to the shower and start to think of more practical things. Breaking the news to Naveen that there was someone new helping him, keeping any work Casey does separate. He finishes his shower and heads to bed. Thoughts about how he to keep his more lustful thoughts in check if they were going to be working together more quickly turned into what he wanted to do. He had mental visions of her, straddling him, he was massaging her breast, whilst kissing the column of her neck.

He feels himself harden again and he knows it is a losing battle.

He gets himself comfortable and starts to stroke himself. Slowly at first, keeping time to how he would be doing things to Casey if she was here. He squeezes whilst stroking, imaging he was entering her. He moans her name. He imagines that he is thrusting in and out and what his imagination conjures glorious. He pumps himself harder as he gets closer, his grip getting tighter as he imagines Casey clenching around his length. He is on the precipice of his climax and with a final powerful stroke he comes. He groans as he comes. He cleans himself up and heads back to bed. He waits for the cycle of regret of the thoughts he had indulged but instead he falls into a restful sleep as he is exhausted. He wakes up the most refreshed and rested in a long time and still no sign of regret at once again masturbating to thoughts of Casey. He puts it all down that he now has someone to share with about Naveen.

A few days later he sees Casey and she looks happy. She said she found a way to help someone in need and felt good making a path, like you told me the other day. Without thinking I squeeze her arm and congratulate her on her win. The action takes me by surprise but then I remember what I feel. I still can not fathom the lack of cycle of self loathing and I put it down to trusting Casey with t the secret of Naveen.

——-

Authors note 2: gotta love some old fashioned book 1 pining. In my head canon it is here that he feels he can trust her and that feeling overrides any doubts he has about the feelings he is developing. At this point he has no intention of acting on them, until Miami and the cycle starts again.
