Phic Phight - Why Do I Still Live In This Town?
@Chrysanthemum9484
Trent just wanted to sleep, unfortunately some ghosts and one ghost hunter are having a verbal and physical fight right outside his damn window. Trent is not impressed. Not at all.
âHow dare you! No one lays a hand on my Maddie!â.
âPhantom! Why does the vampire ghost think Iâm his!â.
âDon��t worry about it, heâs working on it!â.
âWorking on it?!? Is this an on going problem! And!- oh he just blew up a building! Crap!â.
âShit shit! Plasmius! You fucking dumbass! And yes! He! Uh! Might have tried to kill your husband a few times!â.
âWHAT!â.
âIâm not letting a buffoon ruin my true love!â.
âThe only true thing about you is that youâre a fucking FRUIT LOOP!â.
âAbsolutely NOT! Phantom! I give you permission to lift me up so I can shoot him!â.
âNo! Heâs got a cat! Heâs better! Your guns are insane!â.
âThis one only shoots potatoes! ⌠Jack drained the other gun!â.
âSee! A BUFFOON!â.
âI love my buffoon!â.
âAt least we can all agree he is a BUFFOON!â.
âThen join me!â.
âNo! Fuck you you douche-canoe and your shitty hair and your ugly ass car collection! Stop giving me dead badgers!â.
âThen become my live one!â.
âIâM DEAD!â.
âYou both should have STAYED DEAD!â.
âGET BACK HERE! I WILL END YOU!â.
âEND YOURSELF! THAT IS A POTTED FICUS YOU DUNCE!â.
âIâve seen your grades! I am hardly the dunce here!â.
âGhost donât have brains! Youâre both idiots! Itâs on the fake palm tree!â.
âOh you are GOING DOWN!â.
âWhy did you cover ME in goop!?!â.
âHA!â.
âThatâs a good look on you! Phantom!â.
âEAT MY ENTIRE UNSALTED ASS! PLASMI-ASS!â.
Trent glares murderously at his bedroom wall, stomping over to the window and shoving himself out of it with squeezed shut eyes just in case, âWILL YOU ALL SHUT UP! IâM TRYING TO SLEEP! FUCK!â. He instantly gets gooped by Mrs. Fenton, as he expected.
âSorry!â.
âDo you! Or do you NOT! What me to keep this thing from eating your house!â.
âI donât care about his crackerjack house!â.
âIâll make you pay to fucking rebuild it then!â.
Trent growls angrily, âI DONâT CARE JUST LET ME SLEEP!â.
âNO!â.
âIâm trying to get this wrapped up as fast as I can! Mr. Trent!â.
âIâve got you now!â.
âZONE DAMN IT! DONâT!- AH FUCK!â.
Trent falls on his ass, sputtering, as the building shakes. Phantom coming intangibly in through the wall to grab his leg, âyou canât stay in here, sorryâ
Trent starts smacking and slapping him, âno! I will sleep in rubble if I damn well have to!â.
âInvest in FUCKING EARBUDS!â.
Trent gets pulled through the wall, heâs still covered in goop just now with some fucking drywall dust added in.
âEnd! You foul thing! None shall touch my woman again!â; the vampire ghost is physically tearing apart a green plant-like ghost with his claws and teeth.
Mrs. Fenton hurls her gun at the vampire ghostâs head, âI am not your anything!â.
Phantom sighs and buries his head in his hands.
Trent glares at all of them, âwell can I fucking SLEEP NOW!â
âYou do you, jackassâ.
âYou can add the damages to the FentonWorkâs tab! Sorry!â.
âOh Iâm not done yet!â.
âShut up, Plasmiusâ.
Trent glares hard and just walks off to a bench, grabbing a shower curtain out of the rubble (it has laughing cat faces on it), and lays down to fucking sleep. Stupid fucking goddamn ghosts.
âBEWARE!â.
âFUCK!â, Trent gets flung off his bench and proceeds to mercilessly beat the Box Ghost with a tire iron he found on the ground.
End.
Prompt: "No! You do not hurt my (girl)friend and get away with it!" And <incert ghost name here>'eyes flashed dangerously.

[Jet x Freed] Cubicle Capers - Chapter Five
Summary: Jet was meant to do more. He was meant to do something with his degree. He was meant to have a purpose. He'd taken a job at Grimoire Pharmaceuticals to work his way up into a lab position, but found himself stuck in a cubicle. Every day the same. At least he had a new boss coming. Freed Justine. Heâd be like the rest, though. Boring, outdated and.. hot as hell?
Notes: The tension boils over, itâs time to get physical. Again, this was requested by @jethro-art.
Links: Ao3, Chapter One, Chapter Two, Chapter Three, Chapter Four, Chapter Six, Chapter Seven, Epilogue
Chapter Five â The Shift
Jet
"So tell me old man," Jet began, voice dripping with condescension and arrogance. "I know that they didn't have electricity when you were a kid, but does it bother you that you're just so, so crap at playing video games?"
Freed stared Jet down with an unimpressed look. "You're two and a half years younger than me, Jet."
"That it, huh? Wow. You've aged terribly."
Jet loved making Freed laugh by insulting him. Freed was the kind of guy who could seemingly take any insult on the chin and laugh it off so long as he knew it was said in jest, and it was a very attractive quality. Jet loved a man who could laugh at himself, and the reluctant, slightly annoyed smile that Freed had long since stopped trying to hide away was a very handsome one indeed. It spoke of a self-assured man, as well as a promise of eventual retribution. Or maybe Jet was looking too far into it.
How would Freed take his retribution? Jet had to assume Freed had a vicious side. What would it be like to see that unleashed?
"You seem to forget that there's only three points between us, Jet," Freed said, voice smooth and promising something that Jet couldn't decipher. He very much wanted to find out what the promise was, though. "And out of the â what is it now, thirty-six? â thirty-six times we've done this, you've won exactly five times. Your record and your cockiness don't exactly tally."
"You know what does tally? The fact you're losing tonight, and I've got a hell of a forfeit in store for you."
"Oh I'm so terribly scared," Freed deadpanned.
Jet nudged him as they walked to the next arcades machine, a Tetris game that allowed two players to compete side by side. Not a good game for Jet, he always ended up absentmindedly playing with the joystick as the blocks were falling and sabotaged himself. A fun one, though. And one where Freed got cocky himself.
They'd been coming to the bar every Friday night after work for over half a year now, and it had long since been the part of Jet's week he looked forward to the most. They played every game, compared scores, and the loser did a stupid forfeit chosen by the winner. Jet typically lost. But that just made the victories better.
Having Freed walk into the office in a chicken morphsuit on a Monday morning without any explanations to the room had been perfect. Almost as perfect as when Jet walked in on him changing into his regular suit about five minutes later. He'd seen him without a shirt, abs crunched and biceps naturally bulging.
Fuck that was a good day. One of the best he'd had in years. Shame he didn't walk in a moment earlier and see if Freed wore boxers or briefs. He'd look good in either. Or without any underwear at all.
He'd also long since stopped caring about his crush on his boss. Freed was sexy, good fun, and the bright spot in Jet's life. Who cared if it was stupid?
Tetris, inevitably, was another victory for Freed. Jet knew he was likely to lose the entire game, and that Freed would have some perfectly respectable but entirely embarrassing task for him to compete when he eventually lost. Jet didn't care. He found it oddly thrilling to find himself at Freed's mercy again and again. He knew Freed wouldn't take anything too far. He would trust Freed with his life, so handing him his dignity on a silver platter just seemed to be second nature.
That, maybe, was a bit stupid. But Jet wasn't known for making good decisions. He was known for getting good results.
"So, tell me, you tedious creature," Freed emulated Jet's previous tone perfectly. "How does it feel to be so completely dominated at a game by a so-called old man? Demoralising? Humiliating? Earth-shattering?"
"You really think you play that big a role in my ego, huh?" Jet taunted, grinning. He didn't hide his grins around Freed like he usually did. It was nice to be so uninhibited.
"Oh, I know exactly how big a role I play in your ego, you little brat."
It would be funny, in retrospect, that this was the moment. The moment that Jet fell head over heals in love with Freed. Of course, in the moment he had no idea that it had happened. He had no idea that the sudden burst of adrenaline and dedication and hope was the makings of love. He had no idea that the little smiles that he'd been wearing for months now had been a precursor to love. He had no idea in that moment that his life had shifted so entirely in the best of ways.
But what he did know was, in that moment, Jet had had enough.
He turned to Freed, faced him straight on, and grabbed him by the tie. He pulled Freed into his space, grinned at the little exhalation he heard from so close, and planted a kiss onto Freed that had been months in the making.
Fucking Christ Freed knew how to kiss a guy.
He took no time in taking over from Jet, putting firm hands onto Jet's waist and turning them, pushing him into the Tetris machine and pinning him there with his hips. It was a kiss that rocked your core, that buckled your knees, and that got your cock hardening without giving you enough time to think. His hands were on Freed's chest, bunching up the fabric of his shirt, because fucking hell there was no way he was letting Freed away from this kiss.
Months. There had been months of staring at Freed, and little glances where he could swear Freed was looking back. Months of seeing the man behind the suit and tie, cocky and competitive and caring when he needed to be. Months of slowly feeling alive again, all because he had a man who set a fire inside of him. Months of falling for the man.
He'd realise that's what had happened later on. In that moment, all that mattered was Freed's lips on his, Freed's hands on his waist, Freed's thigh rubbing between his legs and against his semi.
"Jet," Freed gasped, lips kiss swollen and eyes a little hazy. "Is this a good idea?"
Jet didn't need to think. "Oh fuck yeah it is."
And Freed was kissing him again a moment later, so clearly he agreed with him.
âââ
Freed
The moment Freed's apartment door was closed, Freed had Jet pinned against it.
Jet was excellent to kiss. Thrilling and involved and just malleable enough to let Freed put him where he wanted. He kissed with his whole body, pushing up against Freed and setting him aflame. He cared little for dignity or image, and simply threw himself into it. He was focused solely on the pleasure, and dammit if Freed wasn't entranced by such a trusting, careless, sexy display.
If he were a better man, Freed might still be second guessing himself. But that one statement, that overtly enthusiastic call to arms, had been enough. Freed had taken Jet by the arm, dragged him to the nearest tram station, and hadn't been able to keep his hands off the man. On the tram, in the elevator, even as he was unlocking the door, Freed always had at least one hand on the man. Now they were in Freed's apartment, alone and horned up, and finally Freed was going to be able to indulge in the fantasies that had been slipping into his dreams for months.
"We doin' this against a door?" Jet asked, breathless and throaty. "Ain't complaining, but the handle's kinda diggin' into my back."
Fucking Jet against the door would be wonderful. He'd be rough with it, and he knew that he could make Jet scream and moan. People would walk past the door and hear, and they'd know just how responsive Freed could make his lover. Jet looked like a screamer, but he would need someone to coax it out of him. Freed could be the man who made that happen.
But not now. Not the first time. Not yet.
"Sofa," Freed demanded, husky. "Now."
He left enough space for Jet to slip out from the door, and said nothing else. Maybe he was testing to see if Jet was quick to argue the point in this mood, or if he had a more subservient side when in bed. Freed would be glad to see either, but knowing how Jet acted to a demand would help set the tone.
Jet saw his opening, grinned a naughty grin at Freed, him Freed on the lips, then slipped out and walked to the sofa. Only when Freed turned did he see Jet sitting on the arm of the sofa, smirking.
"This what you meant?" He asked, knowing that it wasn't. Cocky brat.
Hm. Freed had called him a brat before Jet had kissed him. Now he was looking at Freed, daring him to do something. Freed grinned. Perfect.
Shucking off his jacket and throwing it on the floor, Freed stormed over to the sofa. Jet tracked him, his amused and challenging expression never leaving. Freed placed a hand on Jet's chest and, without holding back on the force, shoved him. He was pushed onto the sofa cushions, legs still hooked over the arm, splayed out and ready for Freed. Freed climbed over him, knees either side of Jet's waist. He leant down, pressed the lightest of kisses he could manage onto Jet's lips, before smiling down at the wide eyes.
"Don't misbehave Jet," he warned. "I might like it too much."
He leant down, kissing and biting at Jet's collarbone, mercifully exposed from when Jet had ditched his tie and undone the top few buttons of his shirt. He could feel Jet writhing as his hands explored Jet's firm, strong body. A quick glance up as he secured a nasty love bite showed Jet looking down at him, a haze of pleasure overrunning him. Lovely. Brainless. Pliant.
Freed kissed him again, slowly grinding his crotch against Jet's. The whine, needy and ever so desperate, sent shivers down Freed's spine. He ground down further, feeling Jet's hard cock grind agains his own. Jet was big. Very big. The size of cock that might make a man cocky. Freed might have to put him in his place.
But not tonight. Tonight was instinct, not play, and instinct was screaming at Freed to make Jet cum.
Not breaking their kiss, Freed worked on Jet's fly first. The zipper was down and Freed plunged a hand into Jet's snug boxers, which had been tented with the monster erection. He pulled Jet's cock and balls out, gave a tentative slide of his hand over, and ate up the gasped 'fuck' with relish. Responsive and verbal. Lovely.
Freed was less elegant with pulling his own cock out, freeing it from his boxers and holding both of them in his hand. Jet had at least an inch more than Freed and fuck the thrill that sent down Freed was wonderful.
A hung, ripped, cocky man. Perhaps for some the perfect top. For Freed, the perfect plaything.
He brought his right hand up, pulled away from Jet's mouth just long enough to spit into his hand, then took both of their cocks again. He tugged them both, slow and languishing, thrusting his own hips into the groove while pinning Jet and stopping him from doing the same. He would be in control of all the pleasure tonight; he would give Jet what he deserved.
With precise and purposeful motivation, Freed attacked a spot on Jet's neck which would mark up beautiful. A hickey hard to hide, and harder to explain. Jet, a little pale and a little hairy, would be a wonderful canvas to mark. And he'd be so loud and desperate when he was doing it.
"Freed," Jet gasped.
"Like that?" Freed asked.
"Too much. Not ready to cum yet," Jet shuddered, and Freed mercifully removed his hand, looking down at his prize. Jet was ruffled beyond recognition, leaking cock bobbing in the cold air, hitting against Freed's. "I wanna suck you off and cum that way."
Oh. Oh this man was too much. "You do."
"Wanted to since day one," Jet shrugged. "Can I?"
Freed grinned. "Of course."
He shifted so that Jet could get out from under him, and Jet didn't even need to be told to get on his knees at the end of the sofa. Freed watched him, momentarily brainless at the sight of his ruffled employee on his knees, long dick leaking onto the hardwood floors, ready, willing and desperate for a cock down his throat. Freed shifted himself too, sitting on the sofa with legs spread, his own dick hard and glistening. He gave it a stroke or two, and Jet's eyes tracked the movement.
Jet leant in to take it in his mouth, but Freed raised a finger and Jet froze still. Slowly, with a false pretence of carelessness, Freed began to undo every button on his shirt. One by one they were undone, exposing his chest, abs and happy trail. He leant back and looked down at Jet.
"Why d'you do that?" Jet asked, though his juddering prick seemed to like it.
"Aesthetics," Freed grinned. He placed his hands behind his head, flexed his biceps, and looked down at Jet like a king looked down at a peasant. "Get on with it then."
Jet smirked. "Yes sir."
Freed had no time to relish that, because Jet was on his cock within a second. Fuck, a hot mouth and tight throat on his dick was wonderful. Jet might be a little out of practice, but he was damn good. The heat and the enthusiasm and the noises were magnificent, and Jet's tongue was a torturer and an angel all at once. Jet knew how to suck cock, and clearly loved it.
For a few seconds, Freed found himself boneless and unable to do anything but relish it. He could feel his toes curl, feel his blood burn, feel his back stick to his shirt with sweat. He could feel it all, and yet could do nothing but relish it.
"Stroke yourself," Freed demanded.
Jet did it, and that was what made this right. That was the small thing missing. Seeing Jet wrap his hand tight around his cock, jacking off without care for being watched was wonderful. There was nothing elegant or romantic or practiced about his movements. Jet was a man who wanted to cum over Freed's floor, and sucking Freed off was getting him close.
Encroaching orgasm burned up his body. Flew through his veins and set him aflame. He felt it coming, strong and shivering and all consuming. An orgasm that Freed would never forget.
He grabbed the back of Jet's head and held it in place, fucking his mouth with unrestrained need. The slurping and gagging and choking was downright sinful, and Jet wanked his cock faster and faster, and fuck that's what Freed needed. A cocky brat who loved getting face fucked and serving his better. Perfect. Wonderful. Obedient.
The groan came from deep inside of Freed, and hot wads of cum shot from Freed's dick just as overwhelming pleasure left him thoughtless. He could feel as Jet's throat worked to swallow it all, and fuck that was amazing.
He pulled his dick out just as the next shot of cum came, splattering it over Jet's face. It was thick and made Jet look beautiful. He blinked, and the cum on his eyelashes flew off, and Jet had never seen a man more radiant.
Wordlessly and breathlessly, they watched each other. Jet looked entirely fucked out, his office clothing a mess of rumples and cum stains. He glowed, and Freed found himself hypnotised by it. Freed's cock was semi hard still, covered in spit and cum, while Jet's had drooped to flaccid state, cum on the floor and on Freed's shoes. They noticed that at the same time, and the naughty look on Jet's face suggested that maybe that hadn't been an accident.
Jet, slowly and purposefully, ran a hand over his face and gathered up all of Freed's cum, before licking his palm clear. He never once looked away as he did it, and Freed knew he could bend Jet over his coffee table and fuck him right there. Jet would love it too. Freed knew it for sure.
"Jesus," Freed whispered, awestruck at the sight of the man.
"You got a shower in there, right?" Jet asked and nodded to the partially open bathroom door, voice hoarse and fucked. Freed nodded. "Big enough for two people?"
"Might, erm, might be a little snug," Freed breathed, weak and shuddering.
"Perfect," Jet grinned. He hopped up, tugged his shirt off over his head, and walked towards the bathroom. "Come on, Bossman. Let's get wet."
Never a more perfect offer had been made. Freed was quick to follow. He would follow Jet anywhere after a display of cock sucking, cum swallowing excellence, but a shower was perfect the best place he could think of.
Jet: wet, horny, bedraggled and insatiable. Freed was a lucky man indeed.

5) Bleeding Heart: A Chronologue (part 2/2)
Pairing: Mand'alor!Din Djarin x Reader
Synopsis: Din left you and Grogu at Fett's Palace and regrets it.
Word Count: 1300-ish
Warnings: Um, improper use of Mando'a, I'm sure. And blood. Um, Darksaber stuff? Near death experience.
Disclaimer: I do not own any Mandalorian/Star Wars anything. I find all Mandoâa translations and pronunciations at mandoa.org.
A/N: Been a long time coming, folks! Honestly, I'm a little surprised I finished this part lol BUT IT IS FINALLY HERE! Sorry it took so freaking long....This thing was a total nightmare for the longest time, let me tell you. I feel so accomplished now that this piece is OVER. Anyway, ENJOY! (:
Also, this takes place during Beskar Kisses & Grime, if you need to recap lol
Day Four:
Din woke up in a dark, unfamiliar room with a start, gasping for breath.
âAh,â dim light filtered through the room. âYouâre awake, Mandâalor.â
Din whirled out of the cot, cape tangling through his legs, blaster pointed at the man who entered.
The man held his hands up in surrender, lantern in hand casting shadows in the small space. A small smile on his wrinkled face. âPlease, we mean you no harm.â
Slowly, Din holstered his blaster, his cape untangling with the movement. âIâm looking for someone. A bounty.â His voice was rough, throat dry.
âWe get many travelers through our small village,â said the man. âDescribe your bounty and I will ask around. If anyone has seen them, we would be more than happy to tell you.â
The words made Din wary, wondering what price he would need to pay for the information. âWhy.â
âYou are our Mandâalor,â the man stated, matter-of-fact.
With a sigh, Din sat down on the cot, utterly exhausted even though it seemed he got some sleep. It groaned under his weight. âYou wear no armor.â
âWe have been hiding,â he said, giving nothing away, gaze never leaving the visor before him.
âI see,â Din did not see, but his brain had felt muddled and confused for at least a day now. He figured it was the curse of his Karâta. The room was spinning, spinning, spinning. His gloved hands gripped the edge of the cot with strength he didnât feel.
âMandâalor?â
âPlease- uh-â Din shook his head as though that would clear it and groaned, eyes screwed shut. He had no idea what he was going to say, so he went with the next thing on his mind. âWhy- back to?â His body swayed. âMandalore.â
âAre you sure you wouldnât rather rest?â The manâs concern reached Dinâs ears, but just barely over the ringing that now suddenly plagued him.
âCanât,â he shook his head petulantly and landed hard on his side, eyes opening to find the older man hovering above him. The cot was hardly softer than the ground itself. âNer Karâta.â
âGo back,â the familiar voice cracked, heartbroken and weary.
âYour heart?â
âGo back,â it wailed.
âThe bounty,â Din mumbled, moving to sit back up, but the manâs hands held him in place. âI have to get back to her.â
âGo back,â it seethed. âYou call yourself Mandâalor and yet you leave your heart.â
A weak cackle made its way out of his vocoder. Finally, the darksaber speaks its mind. âSays the one who gave me no choice.â
âYou make no sense, Mandâalor,â the words sounded far away, blowing past him in a strong breeze, getting farther and farther away.
Day Unknown
Din awoke in a fog, the taste of iron filling his mouth. Blood splattered the inside of the helmet before he was able to rip it off, blinding his sight. Silently, not knowing where he was, he slowly sat up and removed his helmet. The air was cool and damp, a cold sweat made his flight suit cling to his body in an uncomfortable way.
Spitting more blood on the ground, he took in his surroundings. A small lantern sat on a small wooden table by the door. The walls, he noticed, were made of stick and mud. Above was straw, which explained absolutely nothing.
Where was he?
What was he doing here?
âYouâre awake!â An over-excited voice said, scurrying past before Din could see who they were. âIâll go get grandpapa.â
Din stood to follow, hand reaching out to the wall as the room spun. Slowly, he grabbed his bag laying on the ground and his bloodied helmet. Finally, he stepped forward, ignoring the ache in his chest as he settled the beskar on his head. Ignoring the murmur of the Darksaber in his mind when he fell to his knees, coughing, sputtering blood until he couldnât see anything but red. The bag dropped from his feeble grip, one hand moving to clutch the center of his chest while the other fumbled for the mechanism to remove his helmet. Around him, footfalls were heard, thumping, pounding, surrounding him. Someone spoke. A shout. Cries.
Darkness enveloped him.
âIf youâre going to be this stupid, Din Djarin, chosen Mandâalor,â the voice spat, disappointment ringing through the many voices. âThen it is time we take over.â
âTake,â Din heaved, chest heavy, as though the Razor Crest sat on it. Every breath tasting, smelling, of copper. Vaguely, he wondered if this was the end for him. âOver?â
âElek,â itâs voice became stronger, more firm, turning into a physical thing he couldnât see. As though it had moved from inside of his mind to a person standing right next to him. Itâs next words were clipped, âWe chose you as our true heir. The one who will bring peace to Mandalore. The one who will always do right by his people. The one we gave the most precious thing to,â the voice paused, waiting. When Din didnât- couldnât- respond, it continued, voice reverberating reverence, âGar Karâta.â
âKar-â
âBut we see you do not deserve her-â
âI kno-â
âWe see you are not keen to stay in her presence-â
âI do-â Din panted, voice sounding strangled. In a panic, he attempted to explain. To tell the past Mandâalors that you were the only thing he could think of, only thing he needed to survive. He needed them to know that you were everything to him, that all he wanted to do was keep you safe. That it had agreed with him before, that taking you on hunts was unsafe. That anything could happen. There were too many variables, remember? When had a fight ever gone his way? Doesnât the Darksaber remember that? âNot safe-â
âYet you must live,â the once-ghostly voices stated over him as though he hadnât said a word. As though he was nothing but a speck of sand on Tatooine. As if every breath didnât feel like his last. âWe will get you back to her.â
âBut-â
âDo not worry, Mandâalor,â the voice turned gentle, understanding. âYou are still worthy of your crown. Of us,â the Darksaber sounded sad with itâs next words. âMore worthy than most who were chosen before you.â
Silence reigned, high-pitched and screaming.Â
Shutting his eyes tight against the surrounding darkness, Din focused on breathing. Honing in on counting; one⌠two⌠three⌠four⌠five, as he breathed in and out. For minutes, hours, days, he breathed as the metallic scent that could only be blood, filled his lungs. Still, he kept breathing. It was the only thing he could do. The only thing he was capable of. The only thing that kept his mind occupied from the pressure, the burning, the squeezing, in his chest.
The Last Day
The ramp of the Crest screeched open. Blinding light from the double suns forced Din to squint through his visor. Confused, he moved forward, stepping down the ramp as it landed on the sands of Tatooine at Fettâs Palace. Behind him was the hum of floating frozen carbonite following him. Ahead of him, you stood waiting, eyes filled with worry.
He didnât understand how he was still alive.
He didnât understand how he got back to the same planet your presence graced.
He didnât- couldnât remember anything past the forever darkness. A black so dark he thought for sure he wouldnât survive. A familiar voice echoed deep in his mind. His head hurt just thinking about it. So he didnât. Instead, he strode toward you with purposeful strides, using strength he didnât feel.
âMeshâla,â he whispered, voice raspy, as he gently laid his helmeted head on yours.
âGar Karâta cuyir morutâyc,â a barely there voice whispered in the depths of his mind.

Chapter One: Aperture File One
It wasnât too long ago that GLaDOS was destroyed. Not too long after that, the cores came back online to take care of a dead facility. However, it was just long enough where it mightâve been long ago or maybe not. Plus, the cores had lost track of time since they were randomly shut down and reactivated again.
Either way, GLaDOS was gone, the test subjects were gone, the scientists were gone, and the cores were back. Despite having dozens of cores, only four truly reactivated. Those four were the Fact Core, Space Core, Adventure Core, and the Intelligence Dampening Core. These cores were made long ago by Aperture to assist in scientific studies, advancements, and upkeep. They each also served their own purpose based on their names.Â
Fact Core was the first to reactivate. His main function is to aid scientists and test subjects whenever they have a question or need a random fact about something. Heâs basically the search engine for the facility and was once very useful. However, like the other cores, he is now corrupt. Due to this, his facts are often wrong and twisted. His flamboyant personality makes it difficult to determine whether or not he is aware that his facts are incorrect. He most likely doesnât notice and thinks he is still being useful. His love for facts either right or wrong, is still very strong and so is his ego.
Mere nanoseconds later, Adventure Core was reactivated. His main function is to scout out land in place of a human. He also contains knowledge of different environments, geography, and land formations. He enjoys going by the name âRickâ for unknown reasons. A scientist caught him calling the other cores by actual names too once or twice. When asked why, he didnât give a clear answer. He only stated that he liked the sound of it. Out of the remaining cores, heâs one of the best at hiding the fact that he is also corrupt.Â
Lastly, Space Core joined the three. His main function is to provide knowledge about space and everything it contains. This includes space travel, astrological events, previous space missions, and more. Space was Apertureâs next goal, so having him and the other cores proved useful. It is most obvious that he is corrupt. He is now too busy ranting about his love for space to give facts and information about it. He just really likes space.
Itâs unknown when the Intelligence Dampening Core or âWheatleyâ came back online. It was most likely around the same time as the others. His main function was to help control GLaDOS by giving her stupid and random ideas that are prone to fail. Later, he was put in charge of the test subjects and their chambers. This is a job that he obviously didnât want. He was also unhappy when he learned about his first purpose and started to constantly complain. This is when the name âWheatleyâ was used more consistently. The other cores didnât know when he reactivated because they werenât around him. This wasnât due to any functions or jobs, they merely donât like him and he doesnât like them.Â
Despite being created by the best scientific minds, by now, most of the cores are somewhat corrupted. The corruption causes the cores to be unable to do their functions properly. More specifically, the Adventure Coreâs corruption mainly affects his motor functions and ability to see. As of now, these functions are not badly affected. Though, it is obvious that heâs no longer in mint condition. As previously stated, the Fact Coreâs facts are no longer true and are usually twisted. Lastly, instead of giving useful information about space, Space Core just rambles about space related things and his dream of going to space. Due to his functions and personality, itâs unknown if Wheatley is corrupted.Â
Once a core is corrupted enough, it may exhibit signs that are similar to insanity in humans. This could include paranoia, nonsensical rambling, homicidal tendencies, and more. These signs are present at different corruption levels for each core. It is unknown why. The leading theory is that itâs based on their functions and how useful they feel. Changes in personality could be an early sign that the core would soon exhibit these signs.
It is also unknown why cores get corrupted at all. Rather, there is no ONE reason. It could be because some cores were made before the technology was perfected. It could be because they were deactivated and reactivated suddenly and without cause. It could also be due to time or the harsh environment and how it could cause such a complex AI to become unraveled. The final theory here is that it has something to do with the once [VOID]
Despite this, the cores still follow most of the rules. One rule being to never leave the rail unless given permission by a high ranking faculty member. The rails consist of platforms the cores can stand on and hold onto as they move around to their next location. It can only be used by the cores since it requires certain programming. The cores have been told that if they were to ever leave the rail, they would die. This rule was also placed into their programming.
Now, the cores spend their days doing their best to maintain the facility and perform their functions. Even if thereâs nothing to do and conditions have become too harsh to perform their tasks.
Due to only four cores remaining, they have created something almost like a reluctant friendship. Well, the three have. Wheatley continues overseeing the relaxation chambers and what remains of the humans.Â

Medusa AU! Lee Minho x Blind! male reader! he/him pronouns! English is not my first language! hehe angst and fluff Also, HAPPY NEW YEAR [Not yet but you know] would you like to see me as another fruit or blueberry forever?
ââ â
â
â
ââââę° ŕ¨ âĄ ŕ§ ęąâââââââ
Lee minho was a handsome man, everytime he walked he made at least made one person fall in love at frist sight. He didn't care, he just wanted to be with his cats in his lovely home, him and his toughts.
In some way, he didn't liked being like this, people only looking at him with lust in their eyes, talking to him with only one thougt in their head. He wished that someone could touch his hair, his lips, his neck, his body, with pure love, and the soft words "i love you" being murmured in his ear. That someone could kiss him with passion and that could build a fire inside him.
He oh so wanted to be loved, that he believed in the men that told him those words, he ignored everything because he was told "i love you" he ignored the warnings in his head and kissed him with passion, feeling loved.
But love isn't real, it's fake, and he learned that with pain, he was punished. He didn't know why, he was loved, he felt safe in that man arms, but he heard an angry scream before that his body changed.
Lee minho was a handsome man, so as a punishment, he was made to a monster. He didn't really looked like one, the snakes that were his new hair didn't damage anything, he would look like a beautiful creature, but, everyone that looked at him would became stone. That made him a monster.
People wanted to kill him, people wanted to take his head as a trophy, but that wasn't even close to what he felt, he felt betrayed because of love. Because of love, he lost his life.
He wished that someone would look at him and tell him "you're still handsome" "you're still are perfect" please, stop calling him a monster, please let him leave that cage of rocks inside a muntain, where only the planst and the rocks can hear his screams and tears. Ignoring the beautiful flowers that grow from the grass, ignoring those snakes that oh tried so hard to help him.
Please someone tell him, tell him that you love him.
-hello?-
Huh, a voice?
-Hello? Is anybody here? im lost!-the voice started to be more close
-a human?-he whispered, a snake answering him with a hiss
He started to get up from the rock, his snake like body transferring him. He looked behind one of the rocks, the human was walking quite dumb in his opinion, he would step on some rocks and hiss, still looking anywhere confused as ever.
-Hello?-the man said again, until he crashed into a big rock and fell to the floor.
-you are one silly human-minho finally talked, getting close to him.
There were a lot of statues around him, men that tried to kill him, men tried to hide but failed. Yet, this guy decided to just walk like nothing, and even ask for help, his help.
-Hello? Who are you?-the men asked looking at him.
Minho was suprised when the men looked but didn't became stone.
-my question is, who are you? i want to know the stupid men that came here-minho talked with a hint of anger in his voice
-oh, um, im sorry mister, im Y/N, as you can see im blind and i don't know how i got lost and, well, here i am-Y/N said with a small smile, his cheeks becoming quite red
-huh, that makes sense-minho walked far away, slapping his snake tail to the mens face-that explains why you aren't stone right now
-stone?-Y/N looked at bit more suprise now-so, you are the snake man that the town talks about-
-something like that, and you don't look so afraid-minho said while playing with one of his snakes.
-well, if you were a really monster, you would have killed me by now, yet you didn't-Y/N said with a smile in his face, looking where he was hoping the men was.
-you are lost, where did you wanted to go anyways that you ended here?-minho sat, kinda, in front of him.
-i was following some people, they said that they were going to look for food but never came back-he laughed a bit-i think they didn't wanted me in the group anymore
Minho just looked at him, not saying a word.
-Lee minho-
-huh?-
-Lee minho, thats my name-
ââ â
â
â
ââââę° ŕ¨ âĄ ŕ§ ęąâââââââ
Minho showed him the town, hiding behind some trees, far away from his cave, yet, Y/N followed him back. He heard him quite easly, since he crashed again into some trees.
"why are you still here" he asked
"well, you didn't pushed me away" Y/N answered
So, time passed, and here they are, beside the small lake that was in the cave. Minho looking at Y/n making some crown flowers with the few that grow there.
-you know how to make those, you look like a professional-he said getting closer to him
-yeah, well my mom used to teach me, it was hard since i only could use my hands but, i learned and i made a lot of them for her and for me-Y/N said finally finishing the two crown flowers, putting one in his own head
-and your father?-minho asked, fixing a bit of the flower crown in Y/N's head
-he, was never there, i didn't mind, i didn't met him but i wish i could hugged him at least one time-Y/N's voice was a bit sad
-men are like that, some of us don't deserve that, i was once a handsome man, but, someone betrayed me-minho said, anger being obvious in his voice
-was?-Y/N asked
-well, if you could see me right now, you would see a monster-
Y/N raised his hands a bit, withouth warning he started to touch Minho face. Minho was suprised but he stay still, now knowing what the other one was doing.
Then he felt his fingers in his lips, touching his cheecks, softly touching his nose and even touched some of the snakes. Y/N touched his neck a bit, then rested his hands in his shoulders, Y/N smiled.
-i think your handsome and kind, if you weren't like that, i would have been dead by now but you helped me and even let me live here-Y/N said-though i do feel sad that i can't see you, dying by seeing you must be a beautiful way to die.
Minho felt tairs falling from his cheecks, oh he waited so long for those words to be said, even before that he became like that. Someone has finally treated him with kind and love, told him how he was.
His heart felt like fire, he didn't know when but he kissed him, he kissed him with passion and you accepted that. The two men in that room knew so little abouth the other, but they felt safe in each others arms.
When they separated, they hugged, Minho face being in withing the shoulder and neck of Y/N.
-i... i think i love you-minho whispered
-i love you too-
Minho felt happy, and with his snakes looking at him and at his new lover, he didn't care, he wasn't a monster.

The First Meeting - Pre War
Summary: meeting Cooper for the first time. Pairing: Cooper Howard x Reader (eventual) Word Count: 597 Warnings: none for this chapter, future chapter may have more warnings. A/N: This drabble series is going to feel like a slow burn, and it will likely not be posted in any specific order. However there will be a masterlist for this series. I do NOT consent to my work being translated or published onto third party sites - including AO3 and Wattpad.Â
The Cowboy & The Movie Star
When you had gotten the role, you did not expect much to come out of it. The one thing you knew for certain was that your mom was proud. She was every time you got a role. And eventually, everybody in your hometown would know about it. On release day, her book club would become a watch party and they would drive to the nearest theater and watch it. Later in the evening you could expect a call where your mom would rave about the movie and your performance, Even if it was only thirty seconds.Â
That is exactly what happened with your latest movie. Though the praise did not stop with just your mother this time. Multiple times a day your agent was calling to tell you about the latest interview opportunity or magazine article that wanted to feature you and discuss the movie. .Â
Accepting those interviews had rocketed you to the status of Americaâs Sweetheart. Your place there was cemented by the nomination you received for best supporting actress.Â
âMom, I donât know if I can do this.â You admitted into the space of the backseat, running your hands down the front of your dress. An attempt to calm the nerves taking over.Â
Your mom placed a gentle hand on your shoulder, forcing you to turn towards her. Pride was visible on every feature of her face.Â
âMy sweet girl, you can do this. You are so strong and magnificent. And now the world is finally catching onto what Iâve known this whole time.â She fixes a strand of your hair as she continues. âSo, when you do win and you become a world traveling movie star, donât forget you momma.âÂ
A laugh breaks through the nerves as the car comes to a stop.Â
The door is opened from the outside of the car and the flashes from dozens of cameras momentarily blinds you. The shouts of your name are nearly deafening as you step out of the car.Â
An older gentleman ushers you and your mother down the red carpet. Instructing you on when to stop and where to begin looking. The ordeal was slightly disorientating; the lights, the voices, the people. It was too much and the nerves began to return as you shuffled down the carpet.. Slamming into your chest like a bus.Â
Or perhaps that feeling was the man you had stumbled into.Â
âIâm so, so sorry,â You rushed out, grabbing onto the manâs forearm for stability.Â
Chancing a glance upwards, dread filling you as the remnants of your career in Hollywood flashed in your mind.Â
Though instead of anger from the man above you, there was a flash of worry as he helped you right yourself. His brown eyes were soft as a hand landed on your hip.Â
âAccidents happen,â he waved off, âAre you okay, darling?âÂ
The term of endearment, laced with his slow drawl slid down your spine like warm honey. Settling where his hand sat on your hip and spread warmth through you.Â
Before you got the chance to respond, the voices of the paparazzi cut into your brain.Â
âCooper! Y/N! Look this way! Over here!âÂ
It seemed that, broke the man, Cooper, out of his own trance. His hand slipped from your waist, yours fell from his arm. Backing up a step you met his eyes again.Â
âThank you for catching me.â You spoke quickly, shuffling past him, you mother in tow. Sporting a new, cheshire cat grin.Â
As the award show began, a newly familiar figure slid into the empty seat next to yours.

By The Grace of The Moon || Astarion x Werewolf!Selunite!Tav PT3
AN: Hiiii, part 3 is heeere! Not a lot of Astarion action but I loved how it turned out. I rewrote this one twice and I'm finally happy with it :3 enjoy my bbys <3 once again, possibly ooc characters
Part 1 || Part 2
Word Count: 3402
               âShadowheart! Shadowheart wake up, damn you!â His voice rang throughout the camp and he rushed for the womenâs tent. âTavâs hurt, wake up!â In his arms was the body of their leader, his shirt tied around the large slash on their stomach as their blood soaked it. His breath was heavy as he laid them down on a bedroll near the smoldering campfire. A groan sounded from behind him as Shadowheart emerged from her tent.
               âAstarion, do you know how late it is? What are you yelling-â As her eyes caught the scene in front of her, she quickly rushed to his side. âWhat in the hells happened to them?â She quickly untied the bloodied shirt, not allowing their nakedness to phase her. She hovered her hands over the wound, mumbling healing spells as she tried her hardest to mend the large wound.
               âI-I donât know. I went for a walk, and they were just lying in an empty field. They wouldnât wake up.â His voice was frantic as he tried to go over any possibilities. What were they doing out so late. Why were they naked? Were they taken from their camp by bandits. He just wanted something to eat and now he had carried their leaderâs bleeding body miles back to camp. Their scent was familiar, and they smelt of herbs and⌠dog? No. It canât be. ButâŚtheir wound is in the same spot. The same spot as where I sliced that large wolf only an hour ago.
               Galeâs sleepy self soon joined them, hearing the commotion and rushing over as well. âMystraâs eyelids! What happened to them?â He echoed Shadowheartâs question, and his hands started to glow with magic. He could sense Tavâs own magic, though it didnât feel like that of a wizard or any other class. No, it felt more⌠wild. He could feel traces of Selunite magic.
               âAstarion, what were you doing in the woods so late?â He said he was walking but I donât believe him. Shadowheart glared quizzically at him as the wound on their leaderâs chest started to close. âAnd give us the truth, Astarion.â He stepped back, preparing himself for the worst.
               âI⌠I was⌠I was looking for something to eat. I just neededâŚ. well⌠blood.â And with that, the rest of the group realized what he was. A vampire. Gale suddenly let out a laugh, snapping his fingers and pointing at Astarion.
               âI knew it! Hah! I had my suspicions, that boar we found the other day had puncture wounds on its neck and you were very dismissive.â Gale only briefly celebrated his proven theory before turning back to Tavâs body and continuing to help Shadowheart. âNow, with how loudly you ran into camp, I can assume you didnât do this?â
               Astarion shook his head. âI⌠I donât think I did? I was tracking boars and scared them off. Then a large⌠wolf appeared out of nowhere and chased after them.â He paused. It had to have been them. âI think our Tav here is also hiding a secret from us. I got into a fight with the wolf and cut itâs stomach open. I followed its trail and found Tav in that field, lying in their own blood.â
               âA wolf? Are you trying to say that Tav is⌠a werewolf?â Shadowheart scoffed before thinking about it. With their worship of Selune, it would make a little sense. They also havenât told us much about themselves. She sighed and retreated to her tent, quickly emerging with a roll of bandages. âTheir wounds are pretty much healed. Theyâll need to take it easy for a bit though.â Why did they have to be a wolf? I hate wolves.
               âWeâll have to ask them more about it when they wake up. For now, weâll let them rest.â Gale wrapped their leaderâs stomach in the bandages Shadowheart brought out. And after, he stood up, groaning as his knees popped and before returning to his tent. Shadowheart stood up too, walking to Tavâs tent and grabbing a blanket and clothes.
               âIf they are a werewolf, Iâm sure theyâll feel better sleeping under a full moon.â Her voice was low as she dressed them and covered them with their blanket. âGet some rest, Astarion. Theyâll be fine in the morning.â And with that, she too returned to her tent. It would only be a few hours until the sun would rise, and with how much magic and energy everyone used yesterday, they all needed as much sleep as they could get.
               âRight. All better.â His voice was low, and he sat next to Tavâs sleeping body, listening to their shallow breaths, and watching their chest slowly raise. Why? Why do I care so much? Iâm sure without them, the others would be enough to take down Cazador. So why does my chest feel tight? Was I crying while carrying them back? Questions raced through his mind as he looked up at the moon. Selune. If Tav is a follower of yours, help them recover faster.
---
               Your head was pounding and the brightness on the other side of your eyelids wasnât helping. You groaned and held your hand up, blocking out the light as you tried your best to open your eyes. The sun. Am I still in that field? I thought I heard⌠A gasp left your lips as you shot up. âAstarion?!â Oh gods! Is he okay? I threw him to the ground and just took off!
               âAhh, I see our little run away is awake.â You turned your head and was met with Gale stirring a pot over a fire. âDid you sleep well? Breakfast in almost ready.â He met your gaze before pointing to your stomach. âNo blood, I see. Hope that means youâve fully healed?â You didnât know how to respond. When did you get back to camp?                Ignoring Galeâs questions, you fully sat up and realized your clothes. How the hells did I get back here? âWhat happened? The last thing I remember wasâŚâ No. If I tell him, heâll figure it out. âI went for a walk.â You didnât want to lie to your friends but if they find out, theyâll leave you.
               Gale scoffed and gave you a knowing look. âNow, Tav. You and I both know thatâs not true.â He turned in whole body to you and his face changed to a softer expression. âYou can trust us, Tav. I hope you know that. Weâre in this whole ordeal together now.â His gaze drifted behind you as footsteps sounded through the camp.
               âWell, good morning. I hope your feeling better.â Shadowheart took a seat next to you, glancing to your stomach. âYou seem better. And I do hope you plan on giving us the whole story of your eventful night.â Do they already know? Can I even keep this lie up?
               âWhereâs Astarion? Is he alright?â Your mind was now racing with even more questions. Where is your mate? Is he hurt? Was it his voice you heard or were you just wanting to hear him. âI thought I heard him last night. Is he here?â Your head looked in his tentâs direction, the flap of it up and his scent not strong enough for him to be present.
               âHe went to⌠find something to eat. We found out something interesting about both of you last night.â Shadowheartâs head pointed in the direction of the woods. âIâm sure heâll be back soon. But first, your explanation.â There really is no avoiding it now. Thereâs no other way out of this.
---
You shouldnât have been out so late. Not with everything that was going on in your village. The farmers had been losing livestock to wild animals for months now. Wolves, they suspected. Even with all the fences and guarding, they lost many of their animals. Â But here you are, walking a back woods trail in the dead of night. It was quiet, only owls and insects could be heard.
You always liked the night. The quietness made it easier to think. You also enjoyed the way the stars and moon lit up the trees. Itâs why you went for a wolf tonight. The moon was high and at its full brightness. You admired its beauty while sitting near a stream, body sat on a rock and feet dipped in its water. You werenât really thinking about much, just tired.
Along with the farmers in your village, the women would garden and weave clothes. Some even made jewelry and other smaller trinkets. There were also the hunters, like your father. He had been busy the past few weeks with trying to capture whatever was killing the livestock. Your mother was also busy. Since your village couldnât sell their meat or good animals, the women had been making more clothes and working harder to get their gardens nice and grown.
You really shouldnât have been out right now. Really, what were you thinking. But youâre young and have your whole life ahead of you. Too young to truly grasp the concept of being harmed, or worse. So when you heard the howl of wolves, your blood ran cold. It sounded close and what made it worse was the footsteps that followed them. Then the voice came. It was deep and nearly right behind you.
âWell, well, well. Look what we have here, boys. What a cute little one. Whatâs got you so far from home?â Turning around, you were met with a large man who was covered in scrapped clothes. His face was home to scruffy beard, and he looked dirty, like he had been wandering around for a while.
From the trees behind him emerged two large wolves. They stood on his sides and licked their large teeth, growling lowly. Their eyes seemed to glow under the light of the moon, the stream water reflecting in their eyes.
âWho⌠who are you?â Your voice was panicked as you stood up and looked around. âI donât have anything on me.â You had left your home in your nightclothes. It wasnât too cold, so you hadnât grabbed a coat. Just your nightclothes and boots.
The man laughed as the wolves circled him. âWe donât want anything from you. Well, not necessarily. Weâve taken plenty of your townâs livestock to keep ourselves up till the next village.â Who was this guy? Another hunter? It could explain the wolves at his side. Or maybe they were druids? But you thought they were supposed to be nice? âNo, but we could make use of you yet. Our pack numbers are starting to dwindle.â
Pack numbers? Our pack numbers? Thereâs no way. You thought Lycans were legend. Do they really exist. âUse of me? Pack?â You took a step back, trying to find the best direction to run away from the man and his âpack.â âI donât understand.â
He laughs again, his eyes darkening as he steps forward. And has if reading your thoughts, he shakes his head. âYou can try and run, kid. But my boys here havenât had a fun chase in a while.â The wolves growled louder, almost expecting his next words. âWhy donât you give them a good chase.â He tilts his head, his smile growing and showing sharp teeth. âWeâll even give you a head start. One⌠twoâŚâ
Tears were finally falling from your eyes, and you quickly ran past the group. As you did, the wolves snapped their jaws at you, causing you to scream and push your legs harder. Your vision blurred as you ran in the direction of your house. You could just barely see the lights of your village when you heard the howls behind you.
âReady or not! Here we come, little pup!â The thudding of their paws behind you grew louder as you cried out. Your screams echoed through the air as you broke the tree line. You yelled as loud as you could. Crying out for your mother and father. You could see your house just over the field. And from it, the back door opens. Your mother stood in her night robes, peering out before shouting for you.
As she called out to you, the thudding became louder and howling grew closer. And soon, your small body was knocked to the ground as you cried out. The wolves as caught up to you and the man approached quickly. âYouâre faster than I thought, puppy. But Iâve won our little game. Now youâre ours.â The wolves kept theyâre large paws on your legs as the man reached down. You could hear your mother crying out for your father, telling him to grab his bow or sword.
You cried out as the man took your arm in his, running his nose across your skin and inhaling your scent. âYou really do smell sweet.â Tear ran down your face and you thrashed your body, begging the man to let you go.
âPlease! Please I donât understand! What did I do?!â Your pleads were cut off as he opened his mouth, once again exposing his large sharp teeth. âNo! No please- AHH!â He sank his teeth into your flesh with a groan and the wolves howled. Blood ran down your arm as your screams rang through the village. Behind you, your fathersâ shouts reached your ears.
âGets the hells away from my child!â There was a whistle in the air and right after, one of the wolves let out a yelp as an arrow lodged itself into its neck. With its weight off one your legs, you started thrashing. More arrows flew through the air and the other wolf soon took a hit as well. With both his wolves taken out, the man quickly withdrew his teeth and stepped back, a smirk of his face as the blood ran down his chin.
âIâll be seeing you soon, little pup.â In your blurred vision, you saw his body change with the cracking of bones. His large, shifted form quickly turned and bounded away, howling as he did. Your father quickly slid to your side, tossing his bow down as others from the village left their homes at the sound of your screams. He quickly took your arm in your hand, examining the bite mark.
âTav?! Tav, love I need you to focus on my voice!â Your ears were ringing and everything was loud. Your body felt like it was on fire, and you writhed in the grass, ignoring your fathersâ words. Soon, hunters from the village were gathered, their swords and bows in hand as they asked what was going on. âThe creature thatâs been eating our livestock wasnât an ordinary wolf. It was a Lycan.â He pointed in the direction the man, no, the Lycan ran in and soon the hunters were running after him.
Your screams turned to simple whines and groans as your father looked at your arm. Your breath was rapid as your vision continues to darken. Were you dying? Is that whatâs happening? You didnât want to die; you were only a child. Your tears never stopped, even after your mother joined your father and demanded you be taken inside, her cries for her baby echoing just as loud through your villageâs street.
---
Gale and Shadowheart stared in shock as you recalled the origin of your curse. Your fingers wrung together as you continued. âThe village never found the Lycan that bit me. They searched for weeks but⌠they never found him, and he never came back.â Your breath hitched, âThey then tried to call for⌠for my execution. I had been bitten by a Lycan and was now a monster surrounded by hunters. It was only a matter of time before the bit settled and I made my first shift.â
Galed gasped. âThey tried to kill you?â You nodded.
âOne month later, I had my first shift. My parents locked me up with chains and magic in hopes that I wouldnât rampage through the village. It worked but every time, they said they hated seeing their only child chained up, howling, and crying in pain.â You sniffed. âMy mother said that the sound of my bones cracking would haunt her dreams and when the full moon was a week away, she could barely look at me.â
Shadowheart was the next to speak. âIs that why you worship Selune?â Of course her first question is about Selune. Still, you chuckled and nodded.
âMy parents tried every cleric, paladin, and healer they could find. There was no recorded cure for Lycanthropy. So, a cleric of Selune suggested we try and pray to her. She said she could almost see the reflection of the moon in my eyes, even in broad daylight. So, my parents took me to a temple, devoted to any god. They made offerings and prayed almost every day.â
Your voice went quiet, and you waited for either of them to speak. When neither of them did, you continued your story. âFor a while, we didnât know if it worked. We saw no sign from Selune. Until my next shift. The pain I felt wasnât as bad as previous shifts, and after it happened, I was in control. I didnât snap at my parents or try to break my chains. I was finally back in control of my own body, instead of being⌠almost like an observer. Like someone else was the pilot of my body.â
âSo the moon goddess answered your prayers. How could you tell?â Galeâs voice reached your ears, and you looked up. Both him and Shadowheart were leaned in, listening intently to your past.
âMy mother said that during that shift, it seemed like the moon was brighter. She said the light through the window made it seem like I was glowing. And when I was fully shifted, Seluneâs symbol was in my fur.â You picked up a nearby twig, drawing the symbol in the dirt in front of you. âShe said it looked almost like a crown, and we knew that she heard our prayers.â
You sat back and sighed, a sign that you had finished your story. Gale and Shadowheart were left almost speechless. Gale whistled and leaned back as well. âWell⌠that was quite a story. Now though, when you shift, youâre in full control? We donât have to worry about you rampaging?â His words were light, he knew that you were in control, but youâre sure that hearing it would make him feel better.
With a chuckle you answered him. âNo. No we donât have to worry about that. It only hurts a little bit but with Seluneâs blessing I am in full control. My parents and I have been devoted to her ever since.â A smile crossed your face. âI truly thought my life was over. Lycanthropy may be a curse, but Selune turned it into a blessing for me. When I gained control, I was able to help my village. During each shift I would hunt for my village. Providing meat for them to sell in the city each month. I would protect the livestock and everything.â
Shadowheart looked at you with pity. âYou must miss them. Your family.â You nodded. You were in the middle of a hunt when you were taken. The last thing you told your parents was that youâd see them at sunrise. It had been a week since then. You missed them terribly.
âI do. I never expected something like this to happen. I mean, who does?â You chuckled and stood up, shaking yourself off. âGood news is my shifting hasnât changed because of the tadpole. Iâm still in full control.â That seemed to ease their minds. Something else was on your mind though as you looked around. âYou said Astarion went to find something to eat? What did that mean?â Please donât tell me itâs true. Tell me I imagined it.
Gale looked at you knowingly. âIâm sure you already know the answer to that, Tav. He told us he uhm⌠ran into you.â
Your eyes drifted off and your breath hitched. âSo itâs true? Astarionâs a vampire?â You took a step back and your breath hitched. So Selune has given me a vampire mate. Have I truly upset her? Did I do something wrong.
As thoughts ran through your mind, a voice sounded from behind all of you. âSorry to disappoint you, Darling.â

TDIOBCB challenge - day 1:
holding hands Aegon and Daenaera
One of the prominent nuptials in this succession of matrimonial events, aside from the marriage of Princess Rhaena and Prince Daeron, was the significant union of the adored eldest children, Aegon, colloquially referred to as the Golden Prince - due to the colour of the cloak that he often wore when he was a child - with Lady Daenaera Velaryon, the daughter of the deceased Lady Laena, the dearest companion of the Queen. This auspicious ceremony took place in the year 136 AC and held considerable significance.  To mark this extraordinary occasion, the Queen opted to arrange a grandiose Royal ceremony surpassing any previous ones, summoning Lords and nobility from Westeros and other regions to attend the extravagant affair that would span over a week. Amidst the grandeur of the feast, individuals couldn't help but admire the stunning appearance of the newly married couple, who spent the entire event gleefully dancing and smiling, forgetting their surroundings in blissful oblivion. Several people attested to witnessing an unparalleled level of happiness and love between the Prince of Dragonstone and his newlywed spouse: after all, both had been fond of each other ever since their real first encounter, which happened when the two were children. - from TDIOBCB chapter 1

CHERRY BOMB: CHAPTER TWELVE
"As a wise man once said; weâve got shared trauma. So whatâs a little more, right?â
⸠summary: things come to a wild end ⸠characters: the party ft. the teens ⸠word count: 8.5k     ⸠warnings: angst, fluff, ⸠series masterlist
The drive back to the mall was probably the fastest youâve gone tonight.Â
 But there was no time to waste to spend thoughts on the speed you guys had driven since the group had to immediately prepare for the attack. Just as Jonathan had pressed down on the brake, the group was able to peer out the window in time to see as the flayer had managed to enter back inside the mall.
 While the three of you staggered out of the back of the truck, Will and Lucas pulled out a cardboard box from the backseat. You had only just adjusted back to standing up straight when Will pushed the box into your arms.Â
 You stared down at the items inside with wide eyes as the boy quickly divided up everything to fit into different cases. âWeâre gonna have to split up.â you said handing over the remaining boxes to the others. âByers and Sinclair, the two lovebirds, and Gilligan and Ginger with me.â
 âI canât wait for the day you run out of sailor jokes.â Steve sighed as you passed him the box.Â
 âI see myself as The Skipper more than Ginger..â Robin hummed as she fiddled with the lighter.Â
 âUh guys do remember seeing the Mind Flayer go in the mall, right?â Lucas chimed in, giving the three of you a look.Â
 âHeâs right. We donât have much time or fireworks so weâre gonna have to make every spark count.â Jonathan said sternly before he glanced over at you. âEveryone try and stay safe.â With that he quickly turned around and led the others towards the mall.
 The three groups split off once the balcony came into view. The sight of the looming creature was enough to nearly cause you to stumble as you set up your attack point with Steve and Robin. All around the lights of the stores in the mall began to blink. The flayer was making the entire place go on the fritz as it peered down at something below it.Â
 Bending down, you try to look underneath its legs. Far towards the front entrance of Scoops was El, looking up in fear at the creature. âItâs El!â you gasped, turning towards the other two. âLight em up!â
 The others seemed to come to that conclusion on their own as they readied their aim. The spark to start the attack was the moment Lucas threw the first hit.
 âFlay this, you ugly piece of shit!â you heard him yell.Â
 All together on cue, the rest of you began to take your shots. Each group went after the other in a blitz attack that had the monster roaring in every direction. The three of you were perfectly working in tandem, with the other readying their shot right after the other.
 âHey, asshole! Over here!â Steve grunted, throwing his firework perfectly into the mouth of the flayer. After the other groups went Robin went next, hitting the monster right at the side of its face. And at your turn, you managed to get it square in the face.
 Steve threw his next one, leaning over the balcony to watch it hit over his head. Another direct hit.
 âThatâs for my girlfriendâs car, you bastard!â
 The two of you stopped instantaneously. Looking over each other in shock at the sudden choice of words. While Steve looked absolutely nervous, worried that he might have said the wrong thing, you couldnât help but feel yourself become excited inside. Shock turning slowly into a wide grin.
 âGuys?!â Robin called out, passing you another firework and bringing you back to reality. âBig monster, remember?â
 âRight!â you laughed, taking the firework from her. âYou heard my boyfriend, asshole!â
 Steve remembered to step back in, throwing his perfect shots with a mirroring grin on his face.
  The bombarding attack only worked for so long. The amount of throws given to the beast began to dwindle and to your dismay, you watched as Robin took the last firework. âSteve, weâre all out!â you cried.
 He rushed over towards the walkie, pressing on the talk as he watched over to Robinâs throw. âDustin!â he yelled into the receiver. âWeâre out of time!â
 There isnât any response. The three could only stand there and watch as the others slowly started to cease their fire. Leaving the main floor of the mall in a fog. From the balcony, you could see past the fires towards the front of Scoops. El was pinned beneath Billy, but she didnât look up to him in fear anymore. It actually looked like she had been touching the side of his face.Â
 âWhat the hell is going on?â you muttered as your fingers gripped tightly onto the ledge. Steve came up from behind, hand brushing up your back as he followed your gaze.Â
 âI donât understand. Why havenât they shut the damn gate down?!â he gritted, watching as the flayer began to straighten up.Â
 Down below stood the large beast. Peering down menacingly at Billy and El. Fire surrounded its large mass, making it look like a monster straight out of hell. Your eyes followed down to its gaze, noting its interest in El.Â
 Just then, the monster opened its mouth, ready to shoot out a limb towards the girl when Billy stepped up and held his hands out. Stopping the attack.Â
 âNo!â Cried out Billy.
 It all happened so fast.Â
 Before any of you could even try and think of a plan to stop the creature, it suddenly shot out the rest of its limbs. Latching and biting all over Billyâs body. Patches of dark ooze formed over the white in Billyâs shirt. It was attacking its own pawn.Â
 The creature roared down at Billy. Dragging his body up towards his mouth as if he were about to gobble him up whole.
 For a moment it seemed that whatever rage was filled within the boy could power against whatever the flayer had. Like at any moment he would break off from the grasp and fight back. The yells could be heard even up at the balcony with how strong they were.
 But any thought of his survival from the attacks were cut short the moment the flayerâs opened up his mouth again to shoot out its final blow. Direct to the middle of Billyâs chest.Â
 Thatâs when you heard Maxâs scream.Â
 Just as sudden as its attack on Billy, the flayer began to cry out in pain. Flailing its large arms around as it thrashed against the main floor of the mall. You staggered back, feeling silent shock run through your body as you watched the chaos below. It was only a moment later that it finally stopped its movements, falling down to the ground as the connection to the gate had finally been closed off.
 Max slowly approached Billy on the floor, reaching down to shake the boy awake. But no matter how hard she cried out to him, or how hard she shook him up, there was no getting him awake.
 You turned your body away from the sight, burying your face into Steveâs chest to cover up the world around you. This was the man of your nightmares and you fell out of whatever sort of feelings you had with him long ago. Wishing him all sorts of terrible things for the pain and hurt he inflicted onto others. But something deep down still knew him from home. From a time when you werenât a part of the horrors of the upside down and living in a blissfully unaware world of partying and school.Â
 But just like that former life, Billy Hargrove was cold and dead.
  JULY 5TH (2:00AM)Â
 It was hours later and you found yourself unable to sleep. After dealing with the mess of clearance from the Hawkins Lab security, and checked up by one of their doctors. The members of the party were pretty much sent home without further discussion.
 There were apparently casualties from both sides of the battle of StarCourt. Some you were aware of like the Russians and your former boyfriend. But one you were shocked to hear was Jim Hopper. Meaning that El was once again left without a family.Â
 How could one win feel like such a heavy failure?
 It filled your chest with an aching pain that caused you to toss and turn for so long now. There was only one person that you wanted to see to fix that. And despite the fact that you saw him enter inside the safety of his home, you still needed to check him out on your own.Â
 To know once and for all the exact amount of damage he had suffered since you were forced to listen to his interrogations.Â
 Which is why you were finding yourself sneaking out through your front door. Dressed only in pajamas that covered up your bruised and tired body. The ride to Steveâs without a car was a lot longer than youâd have preferred, but thanks to the flayer, youâd be back to biking around a lot now.Â
 Honestly, being out this late should have freaked you out, especially being alone. But your mind couldnât focus on that. All you knew was that you needed to make sure Steve was okay. That no one would be sneaking into his room and taking him back underneath the town to torture him for answers. That no mind flayer would take over his mind. That nothing would be piercing his chest and killâ
 âBaby?âÂ
 You blinked hard. Noticing that you were no longer riding your bike through Loch Nora but actually at your destination. Your hand was raised up to Steveâs double doors and you were shaking. Either from the cold or from the running thoughts that kept plaguing your mind.Â
 Steve, who was still standing in the doorway, looked over at you with concern evident on his face. Your eyes scanned over his body, noting that he wasnât dressed for bed like you were. He was actually in jeans. Like he was getting ready to leave. âBaby?â he said again softly, reaching out to place his hands on your shoulders. The heat from his palms seeped through your shirt, snapping you back into focus.
 âI-I needed to see you. I needed to know you were safe.â you stuttered, letting him pull you into the house. âWhy are you wearing jeans? Why arenât you resting?â
 âI couldnât sleep. Was going to see you, actually..â he said with a small smile. âShouldâve known my girl would be on the same page as me.âÂ
 You turned and made sure he locked up the doors to his house before pushing yourself into his arms. The warmth of his chest seeped through your shirt and you inhaled the scent of the cotton that always stuck onto his clothes. It was so weird how just this time last year you were so mad at Steve. Wanting nothing to do with him. But now? Now you were at a place in mind where you needed to have the comfort of just his touch in order to feel right again.
 Steve chuckled lightly at your affection, unaware of the severity of your need for it. Quietly, he ushered you towards the stairs. Leading the way over to the privacy, and safety, of his room. âWhere are they?â you asked softly once he had closed up the door.
 âWell, note says Indianapolis. Theyâll be back Monday.âÂ
 A small bit of anger filled within you. Of course theyâd be gone for so long in a time like this. When you needed to know he was with people who were supposed to watch over him, and make sure he was okay when you couldnât. What good were parents if they didnât even stick around for their-
 âBaby, youâre gripping me pretty tight.âÂ
 âIâm sorry.â you said pulling back, watching as he gave you a small reassuring smile again. âMy mind is just..all over the place right now.â
 He didnât say anything, only moving you over to sit at the end of his bed before he joined you. âAfter everything, I wouldnât expect you to be in any place normal.â His hand reached up to cup at the side of your cheek before he leaned in to place a kiss on your forehead.Â
 âIâm just worried about you.â Looking back at him, you pushed him back a bit to place a hand on chest lightly. Feeling the subtle thump of his heartbeat. Â
 âIâm fine, Trouble..â
 âLet me see your chest.â you said calmly. Hands reaching out to tug at the end of his shirt. But he quickly stopped you, tugging down the shirt before you could do anything. âSteve, Iâm serious. I need to see.â
 âHoney, itâs fine. Iâm fine. I just need to get some sleep.â he licked over his lips, eyes shifting quickly towards the pillows on the bed. âSo do you.â
 âItâs not fine, Steve!â you said urgently, trying to reach for the hemline of his shirt again. âNone of this is fine! I need to see you are okay. I need to knowââ
 âKnow what? Iâve been checked out!â he countered, hands gripping onto yours. âThey cleared me to go home.â
 âSteve, let me just see for myself!âÂ
 âNO!â
 The two of you instantly pulled back from each other in shock. Neither knowing how to react to each otherâs sudden outbursts. Itâs not until the tears you were unaware of, slipped down your cheeks and onto your hands that you realized you were crying.Â
 âIâm sorry.â you whispered, embarrassed for the neediness that came with your worry. You wrapped your hands around yourself, needing to hold onto something. âI-I didnâtââ
 âNo, no, no. Iâm sorry. â Steve said quickly, pulling you back into a hug. The back of his hand rubbed gently at your back and you couldnât help but reveal in the hold before he pulled back to look at you again. âI get it. Iâd be the same if the roles were reversed.â He reached down to the end of his shirt, looking slightly ashamed. âI just didnât want you to have to see me like this.â
 Without waiting for a response from you, he sighed heavily before carefully tugging the shirt off of his body. Grunting a bit in pain. Itâs not until he leaned back and allowed the light from his bedside lamp to cast over him that you were able to take in the damage he had.Â
 All around his chest and sides were various shades of red to purple bruises. The Russian guards having left no spot clear of their damage from their interrogations. There was a particular dark mark over his clavicle that looked painful. Making you raise a hand gently to try and brush the bruise away with your touch.Â
 There was no holding back the sniffling that followed after that. And when the more tears came out, you let yourself finally react. These monsters had hurt him. They hurt him so much and you couldnât stop them. âIâm so sorry, baby.â You sputtered, unable to hold back the intense sob that had built up in your throat. âIf I hadnât tripped..if I didnât get caught. We could have gotten out faster.â
 Steve reached over to hold the sides of your face. Shushing you instantly as he pressed gentle kisses all over your face.
 âThis was not you, baby.â He kept repeating. âThis is on those evil bastards. No one else. We would have been taken regardless. Okay? How do you think Robin and I got caught? They were too strong for us.âÂ
 âBut maybe I could have helped you two! And if I helped then you wouldnât havââ
 âTrust me. It would have ended the same.â
 Thereâs another rebuttal on your tongue but Steve stopped that by kissing you quickly. The emotions that were held within the two lips were strong enough to almost make you want to cry again. But it stopped your panicking long enough that you were back to being calm by the time Steve pulled away.Â
 He kept his gaze down at your lips, reaching a hand up to lightly gaze at the line of your bottom lip. Like usual, you canât help but place a gentle kiss against the finger tip. Making him smile again before he dropped his hands to his lap. You use that chance to go over his bruising again, trying to remind yourself that while he was in pain. He was still before you.Â
 He was still here.
 Itâs not until you're done checking over everything that he finally looked up at you. A little flicker of amusement in his eyes. âBe honest,â he said softly, lips curled up in a small smirk.. âIs it bad? Will I have to wear sweaters for the rest of my life?âÂ
 You want to chastise him for making light of the situation, but the words are too familiar. And while it took you too long of a minute to think about it, the small memory of him fixing you up the previous year in the Byersâ bathroom came into mind. âItâs disgusting.â you replied finally, a small smile fighting its way onto your face.Â
 The two of you laughed light heartedly, relaxing a bit from the bit of seriousness with the help of the memory. But once that died down, Steve leaned in, allowing the tips of his fingers to brush against the sides of your neck.Â
 âTake off your shirt.â He said suddenly.Â
 âWhy do you always ask me that when I'm here?â You hummed softly, feeling a bit like yourself again. He gave you an amused look, cheeks hinted with a bit of pink before he nodded to your neck.Â
 âLet me see it without the shirt in the way.â
 Complying with his request, you pull off the pajama shirt, folding your arms over your chest to cover up at your breasts before turning your head to the side. Letting him get a proper look of everything. He huffed out air through his nose. Frustrated with the sight of your bruised neck. It was dramatically still a dark purple.Â
 âItâs worse than it looks.â you said quietly. âThey said after two days itâll lighten up. Just gotta ice it now and then, take pain relief if I feel anything.â
 âAnd do you feel anything?â he asked, face close to your neck now during his inspection.Â
 âNo.â you sighed. âJust you.â
 Your response brought out a hum from him and shifted his head a bit to press a kiss to your neck. Making you shiver from the feeling of his lips on your skin. He seemed to like that reaction and proceeded to press even more kisses, moving one of his hands to wrap around the side of your hip.
 âSteve..â you sighed, trying not to fall into the stirring sensation.
 âIâm making you feel better.â he said against your neck. Teeth grazed against the vein lightly while his other hand rubbed from your other side to the arm currently covering your chest. âCanât a guy just make his girl feel good?â
 Smiling at the thought, you gently pushed his hands off from you so that you could cup the sides of his face. Bringing his gaze back to yours. Though that was a little bit difficult with your top off and arms no longer able to cover yourself.
 âA guy can make his girl feel good when he doesnât have an entirely bruised chest.â He scoffed a bit before you nodded to him. âTell me, just what exactly did they say when you were checked out?â
 âI told you, Iâm fine. Iâm clear to do anyââ
 âSteve Harrington, you be honest with me right now.â
 The use of his full name made his eyes go wide before he smirked a bit. âSay my name that way again.â
 Shaking your head, you gently push him away and slide off from the bed. Reaching for your top on the floor. But before you could slip it on, he wrapped an arm around you and pulled you back towards the bed. âItâs a bruised rib, sprained clavicle, and bruised eye. Six weeks for them to heal up properly.â He pointed over to cut on his lip and pouted. âThis thing will be around a lot longer if I donât get some scar cream. Now can we go back to letting me do my work?âÂ
 Looking down at his lip, you gently cupped at his cheek and leaned in to press a kiss to his forehead. âYou are not going back to work for six weeks.â Steveâs eyes widened again and you fought the smile that wanted to come out from his shock. âListen, youâre not gonna feel good in any kind of way until youâre healed up. Iâm not gonna risk you being in pain just so we can have sex.â
 âIâll risk it! Allright? Weâre finally together!â he tried, reaching out towards you. âWe love each other. We gotta celebrate!â
 His desperation is only a little bit funny, but youâre trying to hold that laugh down to try and eb serious about this. âYou think every time we defeat monsters from the upside down and throw in confessions we gotta celebrate with sex?âÂ
 âYES.â
 Shaking your head, you allowed yourself to laugh a bit before patting at his hand tenderly. âOkay, weâll celebrate. Just when youâre not banged up and the color of a grape.â you reassured him. He parted his lips to fight back on it, but youâre quick to place your fingers against his lips to stop him. âI want to, trust me. I just donât want to accidentally hurt you.â
 Steve sighed disappointedly, bringing his hand up to grab yours. He pressed his lips to your fingers before nodding his head. âOkay,â he said, giving in. âOkay, youâre right.â Reaching for his shirt, he was about to slip it back on himself before he looked over at you.Â
 âWhat?â you asked, confused. âDo you need heââ
 He slipped the shirt over your head, tugging it down your body. You pushed your arms through the sleeves and looked down at him questioningly. He adjusted the ends, making sure your bare chest was now perfectly covered before back at you.Â
 âI want my girl warm.â
 âAnd my shirt wouldnât have sufficed?â
 âThat thin thing?â he huffed, pushing himself off the bed. âBarely covered your skin, let alone keep you warm.âÂ
 Rolling your eyes, you watched as he slowly took off his jeans, leaving him only in boxers. Thereâs thankfully no other major bruising to his body, but your casual check out doesnât go unnoticed.Â
 âChange your mind?â he teased.
 You ignore his words and pull at the blanket to his bed, climbing inside to get under the covers. Steve chuckled at that, moving to climb in after you. The two of you face each other instantly, getting in as close as you could.Â
 Steve sobered up a bit from his previous emotions and reached out to push a stray hair away from your face. Leaning to press a soft kiss to your forehead. âDo you wanna talk about it?â he asked softly. Thereâs no doubt you know what heâs referring to, but you decide to play dumb anyway.
 âI thought we were already talking?âÂ
 He pursed his lips a bit. âIâm being serious.â
 Sighing, you snuggled closer towards him. Letting your senses be engulfed in Steve before peering back up at him. The hum of his roomâs air conditioning was enough background noise to lull you to sleep, but you knew heâd want some sort of answer about it.
 âIâm not sureâ you said honestly. âThereâs a part of me thatâs sad for the loss of a life, for Max, for..the Billy I used to know. But that guy was long gone before the Flayer ever took control of him.âÂ
 âDoesnât mean that you wanted him to die.â
 âI donât want anyone to die.âÂ
 Steve nodded his head, moving to rub gently at the small of your back before he tugged you closer. âI learned a while ago that the upside down doesnât care who dies and who doesnât. Itâs out of our hands..â
 You think about why Steve would feel that way until the memory of Barb Holland came into mind. Then Bob Newby, and lastly, Jim Hopper. People who were good as much as Billy was bad were killed because of everything with the upside down too.Â
 âSo this is just our new normal? Dealing with the death of someone we know every year?âÂ
 âNo.â Steve said quickly. âThe gate is shut down for good.â
 âThatâs what we thought last time. How can you be so sure?â You asked, looking up to his face again. âWhat if thereâs something new again? What if the next person I lose is you? What if you diââ
 Steve shushed your panic by pressing his lips against yours. Like before it instantly washed you in a comforting hold. âNothing will happen to me or you.â He breathed against your lips. âThe gate is closed and if anything or anyone tries to hurt you again, Iâll stop them.â
 âYouâll stop them?â you repeated, looking at him a little bit in disbelief.Â
 âYes,â he said firmly. âBecause youâre my girl and no one is gonna look out for you better than me, okay?â
 The words hit differently this time and you canât help but feel his emotions sweep you off your feet, metaphorically speaking. While thereâs no certainty that Steve would always be there to protect you and even know if things with the upside down were done for good. The determination behind his voice is enough to settle you down for now.
 âI love you.â you said softly, pressing your lips quickly to his. He was quick to drag you back in when you began to pull away. Deepening the kiss as he too felt the emotions take over him. One of his hands moved to press you closer to his body, making you feel the front of his chest swell against yours.Â
 âI love you, too.â he said hotly to your lips, mouth parting slightly to gain back some air. âSo much.âÂ
 He tried to go for another deep kiss, but you cut it short. Choosing to press gentle pecks to his lips and face before you finally were able to pull back. âWe should sleep. Tomorrow everyoneâs gonna wanna talk about everything.âÂ
 Ignoring the pout on his face, you turned your body around, giving Steve the chance to drag you back to his front and hold you close in his arms. âWhat if I wanna spend the day in bed with you?â
 âYouâll have to plan that in the next six weeks.â you reminded him.Â
 He muttered something under his breath before he leaned in to place gentle kisses against the nape of your neck. âIâll be counting the days until then.â The pout was still very evident in his voice, making you smile a bit as you dragged his hand to drape over your waist.Â
 âOkay, Sailor.â you chuckled, allowing your eyes to close as you relaxed in his hold.
 âNuh uh.â he yawned, reaching over you a bit to turn off the lamp by his bed. âCanât be a sailor anymore if thereâs no Scoops.â
 âShit, youâre right. I guess I better change it back to your highness.â
 âNope, thatâs too old.â
 âThereâs literally nothing else I can call you.â You lied, feeling him tighten his arm teasingly. âIf not that then..baby?â
 âIâm calling you that.âÂ
 âOh come on, thereâs only so many pet names I can call you. Honey?âÂ
 âSorry, dibs on that too.âÂ
 âSteve!â
 âGoodnight, Baby.â
 TWO MONTHS LATER
 It would only take till the end of the summer for another big change to happen. After thinking it over, Joyce decided that she could no longer live in Hawkins. The pain and loss of both Bob and Jim took a heavy toll on her heart. The Byers family, and their newest member El, would be moving to California.Â
 Something that you and Jonathan found very amusing.
 But just like that, the party, the teens, everyone, would be split apart. Making the summer feel like it was truly the end of things.Â
 All of you tried to make due with the limited time you had left. Spending the last hot day at Steveâs house for swimming. Movie nights in the Wheeler basement to watch cheesy scary movies. And for the teens, one last cheap slice of pie from the local diner.Â
 It was the day before the Byers house was to pack up and leave and you managed to reserve the day alone with your friend. There wasnât anything special done, in fact, you took it upon yourself to help Jonathan organize his room enough for easy packing. But now, like usual, the two of you were outside his house. Sitting on the hood of his crappy car, talking.Â
 âSo you think this old thing can make it to California?â
 âIt can hear your insults, you know.â Jonathan laughed as he gently rubbed down on the metal below him. âBesides, this old thing is a lot better than the balled up red mess of yours sitting in the junkyard.âÂ
 You feigned a shocked look. Still slightly bitter about your carâs demise from the Flayerâs rampant rage.Â
 âThat is literally too soon to joke about my baby like that.â
 âSorry,â he snorted, trying not to fall for the pout that youâre throwing at him. âItâs a sad truth you have to face.â
 âTrust me, I do.â you sniffled. âIf it werenât for Steveâs lifts, Iâd be a hot mess on my dumb bike.â
 Jonathan shook his head before he nodded towards the road. âSpeaking of, where is he? Usually I only get you for an hour or two before heâs whisking you off.â Thereâs no real hate in his tone. Something you were worried about when you started to date Steve. It was genuine curiosity.Â
 âHe knew what today meant for us. Said he wanted to give me as much time with you and that heâd pick me up and take me out to dinner.â
 âHow generous of him.â Jonathan said to his lap, picking at the end of his sweater. âGave us the whole day.. to say goodbye.â
 âHey, this isnât goodbye.â you reminded him with a nudge to his shoulder. âThis is us getting ready for your trip that will have you back by Christmas. At least thatâs what I think I heard Joyce tell Mike the other day.â
 âIt wonât be the same. You of all people would know.â
 âI know.â you muttered.
 Thereâs a beat of silence before you scoot over closer to Jonathan. Moving to rest your head onto his shoulder. He rests his head on top of yours, letting out a long sigh before he spoke up again. âRemember when we first met?â
 âYou mean when you stared at me while Carol was yacking my ear off?â
 âYes,â he laughed. âYou caught me so fast and immediately called me out for it. Nearly gave me a heart attack when you chased me down the hall.â
 âWhat was I supposed to do? Cower away from the guy who was looking at me?â
 âYou wouldnât have been the first.â
 Pulling your head back, you glared over at your friend before giving him another nudge. âWell, Iâm glad I didnât. Got myself a good weirdo out of it.â You put your head down again and looked out towards the street. Watching as the street lights began to come to life down the block the closer the day began to end.Â
 âI wish I could stay.â he sighed, looking down the same direction as you. âFinish out Senior year with you and Nance.â
 âMe too. It wonât be the same..it wonât be as fun.â
 âYouâll have fun. You got Nancy, Steve, and Robin.â
 Thereâs some sort of push to keep the tone positive. But oddly enough, itâs only making you sad. âBut there wonât be you.â you said softly. âThere wonât be anyone to make fun of the town with or listen to cheesy rock music with.â
 âMy music is not cheesy.â
 âOr watch you live in denial with.â you went on, making Jonathan laugh.
 âIâll be back. Soon enough.â he said after the laughter had died down. You picked your head up to look at him and found he was looking down at you. âWe can go to the park and laugh at the cheesy couples trying to ice skate together.â
 âOh God, that is so cheesy. Iâm in. We can even take photos of the ones that fall.â you chirped, moving to slide off the car. Jonathan followed next, dusting off some of the dirt from his pants before he stood before you. Thereâs a bit of a watery look to his eyes and you found it making your own sting with tears.
 âYouâre my best friend,â he said suddenly. âAnd as weird as it is to say to anyone other than my Mom or Nancy, I love you.â
 âI love you too, creep.â you smiled, feeling the waterworks trying to fight to come out now. âAnd youâre definitely not gonna be one of those friends who cry when they have to move away.â
 âOh, definitely not.â he said, choking up a bit. âAnd youâre too cool to be crying for some guy youâve been friends with for almost two years.â
 âDefinitely not!â you said, already reaching up to wipe away the tears that rolled down your cheeks. It's another somber moment of you two keeping emotions under control before Jonathan gave up and pulled you in for a very needed hug.Â
 âWanna hear something funny?â you mumbled into his jacket.Â
 âWhat?â
 âSteve said he wanted to take me ice skating this winter..â
 At that, the two of you turned your sniffling into laughter. Holding onto each other to steady yourself for a good few minutes. Itâs not until the sound of a car approaching that the two of you shut up.Â
 Pulling back, you watched as the familiar red hue of Steveâs BMW came into one of the street lights. A friendly face, with a sad reminder of what tomorrow would bring. Turning to face the driveway, you watched Steveâs face as he pulled up to park his car.Â
 You couldnât help but grin at Steve as you watched him climb out of the car. The look on his face is a little nervous, but once his eyes found yours, he sent you a grin back. âHope Iâm not too early.â he waved, stepping over towards you.
âYouâre right on time. Let me go get my stuff inside.â The two boys looked slightly worried to be left alone, but you ditched them momentarily to quickly gather your things and say your goodbyes to the three inside.Â
 Joyce was, of course, as emotional as you expected. Sheâs been through so much, but it was nice to know that she had a soft spot for you. You remembered to give her the contact information for your Fatherâs law firm. Reminding her that if there was ever a legal situation with El or Will that he would be able to help upon her request. She told you not to worry and reminded you to call often.
 Next stop was the kids. A weird sight to see all of them gathered under one roof. It wasnât until late afternoon that they all showed up. The boys gathered in Willâs room to hang out once more, and the girls in Elâs bedroom. With their friends around they put on brave faces, but once you pulled them out in the hallways, they let their composure crumble a bit.Â
 Saying goodbye to them hurt you a lot more than you thought. They were just kids. Dustinâs little friends. But thinking about how you werenât going to see them around the following week made you terribly sad. You were never good with goodbyes, and this time wasnât any different.Â
 Finally tearing yourself from the kids, you found your way back outside. Purse in hand as you made your way over towards the boys. The last bit of their conversation tickling into your ears.
 â..I get it. You take care of yourself, man.â
 âThanks, uh, you take care too.âÂ
 Their gazes turned over at you as you stepped forward. A small hopeful smile on your face at the sound of their ending pleasantries. Youâre about to make a joke about them hopefully turning into penpals when you notice something in Jonathanâs hands. âWhat is that?â
 âOh,â he said, turning it over to show you. It was a thin dark green photo album. No bigger than a school binder. âI sort of..put this together for you.â
 âYouâre leaving and decide to give me a going away present?â you scoffed, reaching over for it. âAnd here you were last week telling me if I spent a dime on you, youâd kick my ass.âÂ
 Jonathan rolled his eyes a bit before flipped the cover for you. âIt was supposed to be a Christmas present, but I figured youâd like it now, smart ass.â
 Ignoring his playful jab, you watched as he turned to show you the following pages. The pictures are done in Jonathanâs familiar candid style, and youâre happy to see how many heâs taken since the last Christmas he got the camera.Â
 Thereâs photos of you and Dustin in his house, the two of you at school, some with Nancy while the two of you talk on the hood of his car, and even to your surprise, a few with Steve. âI promise, these werenât taken in a weird creepy way..I just thought youâd appreciate having some memories.â
 âI so want to kick your ass right now.â you sniffled, feeling more tears come out. Steve stepped closer, peering down at the photos with a small smile on his face.
 âThatâs cool, but you should probably save it for Christmas.â he smiled. âI think Iâve kept you from Harrington long enough today.â
 Nodding your head, you hand over the album to Steve before wrapping Jonathan in one more hug. âIâm gonna miss you, Creep.â you said softly before pulling back. âDonât go over there and become best friends with another bitchy Californian, okay? Thatâs my job.â
 âCross my heart.â he chuckled, before patting your back. The two of you step back from each other and you feel the warmth of Steveâs hand engulf yours. Keeping you warm and steady as you moved towards his car.
 After he helped you inside, you watched as Jonathan moved back to the hood of his car. Sitting quietly as Steve made his way back to the driverâs seat. Bringing your hand up from your lap, you give your friend one last wave. Watching as he did the same.Â
 You kept your gaze on your friend as Steve pulled out from the Byersâ driveway. Going at a slow pace to give you the most amount of time. But eventually the car is turning and your friendâs face is losing focus. And soon enough the two of you are driving off towards the familiar road back to town.Â
 âYou gonna be okay, baby?â Steve asked a couple of minutes later. Reaching to place his large palm on your thigh. It warmed up your skin through your tights and you canât help but smile at the affection. While you were sad about so many changes that were about to happen, you almost forgot one of the best ones.
 âI will be.â
  THE NEXT DAY
 It had been ten minutes inside of Family Video that you found yourself silently raking through the aisles of movies available to rent. Most of them youâve either seen or heard from tv. But there were a few that you found yourself having to turn the box over just to find out what it was about.Â
 Keith, an upcoming Junior you knew from school, had been watching you since you stepped in. He greeted you with a sleazy smile, offering his recommendation services if you found yourself stuck on what to pick. After reassuring him that youâd be fine on your own, he returned his gaze back down to the comic on the counter. But now and then youâd catch him eyeballing you from across the room.Â
 Robin and Steve were supposed to be here five minutes ago to try and get an interview. But they both seemed to be running late. Thankfully they werenât on a scheduled time or else youâd have been panicking. It was only about two minutes later that you heard the pinging noise of the front door opening.
 The two, both out of breath, rushed inside with a skip in their step. On the way to Keith, Steveâs eyes found yours and you gave him a very subtle thumbs up from the aisle you were in. He gave you a quick wink before turning to join next to Robin.Â
 From where you were, you couldnât help but watch in anticipation for what the outcome of the interview might be. Keith had been looking down at both their resumes for a solid minute before Robinâs nerve began to come through.
 âUh, just to be clear, we werenât fired, you know. The mall burned down, and like, killed a bunch of people.â
 You were thankful Keithâs back was to you, as you stepped closer. Pretending to be interested in the candy as you listened on.
 âThanks for sharing. Didnât know.â he replied sarcastically. He lazily threw down the papers onto the counter before turning suddenly serious. âThree favorite movies. Go.â he snapped to Robin. The girl didnât hesitate to list out her answers. Giving what you assumed to be a pretty good favorites list.
 Steve on the other hand looked visibly upset. Almost the same whenever Dustin would try and convince him to an impromptu trivia night.Â
 âYou, go.â he snapped to Steve next. His brown eyes widened and he suddenly looked like he was called up to answer questions on the chalkboard.Â
 âFavorite movies?â
 âDid I stutter?â
 âUh..Animal House, for sure.âÂ
 Robin audibly scoffed, trying not to look at her friend while Steveâs gaze wandered over the store. He looked over at you with a pleading look before Keith called out to him again.Â
 âEyes on me, Harrington.â
 âYeah, uh..Star Wars.â
 You nearly dropped the candy jar in your hands. The entire winter break last year was spent watching those ridiculous Star Wars films with Dustin in your living room. Not once did he ever think to remember the names of at least one of them?
 âA New Hope?â
 âA new what-now?â
 âWhich Star Wars?â
 âThe one with the teddy bears. Duh.â he said, finishing with a little squealing noise. At that point you have to physically turn away, forcing your gaze onto another row of movies and not at your boyfriend currently tanking his interview.
 âNo? Uh..Oh, the one that just came out! The movie that just came out. THe one with the DeLorean and Alex P. Keaton, and heâs trying to bang his mom.â Peeking over your shoulder, you catch him chuckling before he remembered who he was talking to. âYeah, those are my top three. Classics.âÂ
 Keith was silent as he stared in horrid shock at Steve for a moment. Steve cast his gaze down and away from the people beside him. Most likely going through the whole thing in his mind.âYou start Monday.â he finally said to Robin before he pointed over at Steve. âYou start never.â
 The words seemed to hit Steve a little hard. Even from where you stood you could see the slight tint of red brush over his cheeks. This wasnât how the interview was supposed to go at all. Robin leaned over and spoke softly to Steve. He looked annoyed as he talked back to her but she urged him gently again and soon he was dramatically taking his resume off the counter.Â
 Moving past a couple of customers, you made your way over to him. Reaching out to grip onto his hand. âAnything good here?â you asked, looking over the movies he was currently fiddling with.
 âDonât ask me, apparently my movie taste isnât good enough for this place.â he sighed. You knew he was a little upset by the fact that he still hadnât reached out for you. Choosing instead to keep his glare over at Keith from afar. âItâs not like I need to be God damn Roger Ebert. Itâs just Family Video!âÂ
 You chuckled a bit, poking at his arm so that heâd finally look down at you. âSometimes things donât work out, Steve. Itâs not the end of the world.â
 âI know that.â he pouted, finally calming a bit to reach out for your hand. âI just wanted this to be a win. Now I wonât get to work with Robin.â
 You glanced over towards Robin, watching as she pointed over to where you and Steve were while she leaned in closer to Keith. Her eyes caught yours, winking at you before she waved for you to come over.
 âYou know, something tells me weâre cutting our losses a bit too soon.â you said softly letting go of Steveâs hand. He muttered out a confused noise as you walked over towards the counter. The two people straightened up a bit once you were close enough. Keith glanced over at Robin, getting a slow nod from the girl before he snapped his fingers to you.
 âThree favorite movies. Go!â
 A part of you was curious as to why you were suddenly being interviewed. But from the look on Robinâs face, you knew that whatever happened next was going to be based on your answers. Still, a part of you was annoyed with Keith and his efforts to humiliate your boyfriend. So you could only give what you saw fit.
 âStaying Alive, Xanadu, and..Star Wars.â
 Your words looked like it nearly stabbed Keith in the chest. His hands reached out to grip onto the counter. He looked as red as the neon sign behind him. âWhich Star Wars?â he gritted out, beady eyes on you.
 âThe one where the annoying talking green guy dies.â
 âThis isnât gonna work, Buckley!â he cried out, looking over to your friend shocked. She let out a big fake laugh as she wrapped an arm around your shoulder. Pulling you close to her side. Though her face was friendly, she was secretly pinching at your arm, making you let out a nervous chuckle.
 âSheâs so totally kidding! Arenât you, Henderson?â she asked, looking at you with a small glare.
 âTotally.â you smirked, keeping your composure. âJust thought Iâd make you laugh.â Keith narrowed his eyes at you for a moment before the sound of crashing happened to your right. The three of you watched as Steve fought to keep up a cardboard cut out of Phoebe Cates from falling onto the floor. Heâs thankfully quick at setting back up in time and has a second to look over it up close.Â
 âOh!â he called out, a smile back on his face. âFast Times! Fast Times. Ever heard of it? Top three for me, Keith.â You and Robin giggled at the comment. Very much amused by the boy before Keith brought back the focus with a groan.
 âAll right, Buckley. You better be right.â Kneeling down, he seemed to reach for something behind the counter before coming back up. âMonday. The three of you come in for the Monthâs schedule.â Keith he sighed before chucking green fabric into your hands.Â
 The girl called out a thank you to the boy before leading you out the store. Steve is quick to follow behind you, coming up to your side to grab at one of the green clothes. âItâs a vest.â he frowned, looking at the fabric closely.
 âItâs an ugly green vest.â you scoffed, passing the other piece to Robin.
 âItâs ugly, but it is our new uniform guys!â
 âWait, youâre serious? We go the job?â
 âWe got the job.â she confirmed. The two broke out into happy little claps before turning to you. At first you could only raise a brow before you noticed the one in your hand.Â
 âOh shit, me too. We got the job!â you laughed, waving your vest like a little flag. Getting another job definitely wasnât on the list of things you wanted to start the new year. But from the way the other two seemed to be excited, you couldnât help but feel like it might be a good idea.
 Steve leaned down and pressed a kiss to your lips, giving you a small smile. âWeâll get to spend more time together this way.â
 âAnd make a quick buck along the way.â Robin snorted, heading towards the backseat door. Steve made it a point to open up the passenger door for you, holding a hand out so that you could slide in easily.
 âWell work starts on Monday. But what should we do for the weekend?â you asked once buckled in. Steve adjusted the rearview mirror before an idea came into mind.Â
 âWell the Hawk is still showing that Time movie.â
 âItâs Back to the Future, Steve.â you corrected. âAnd we technically saw it already.â
 âI can promise you I really donât remember the majority of it.â he said honestly. âPlus, I remember you telling me you wanted to see it. I know you got a thing for that guy.â
 A part of you felt a little shy hearing him remember a detail so far back. But you supposed that was a perk of having him as your boyfriend. âYouâd really want to try and see it again. You wonât get bored?â
 âIf Iâm seeing it with you then I promise I wonât be bored.â he smirked, leaning in close enough that he could brush a bit of hair off your face.Â
 âAnd me!â Robin said, poking her head from the back seat. âYouâd be seeing it with me too!â
 You laughed a bit at her eagerness, watching as Steve rolled his eyes. But from the smile that was curling up on his lips, you knew there was no real annoyance to the gesture. So without wasting anymore time, you leaned in to press a kiss to his cheek. Nodding for him to start the car.Â
 âLooks like weâre going to the movies.â
 Steve smiled at that and started up the car. The engine hummed back to life, filling up the car with a soft noise as the three of you set off from the parking lot. You kept your gaze out the window, watching out towards the people while Steve and Robin began to discuss a sudden craving for popcorn.Â
 Reaching for the radio, you quietly went through the different stations before settling on one that was in the middle of a song. One you hadnât heard in quite some time, but it was enough to bring a smile onto your face.Â
 Yeah (ba-da, da-da, da-da)
My, my, such a sweet thing (ba-da, da-da, da-da)
I wanna do everything (ba-da, da-da, da-da)
What a beautiful feelin' (ba-da, da-da, da-da)
Crimson and clover (ba-da, da-da, da-da)
Over and over
A/N: Okay! That took me quite a bit to finish! I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter. I made it a little long because a lot happens and I needed for her to say her goodbye to Jonathan in a way I hope fits their friendship. The next season is gonna be such a bitch to write but Iâm excited! I also hope ppl get why I picked the song in the end. And also a hint for the next season. Iâm probably gonna take a couple of days for a break and then get started on more things. Hope you guys like this. I know itâs a bit messy. :)
