what's currently motivating me to continue working on this fic is the knowledge that i get to tag it 'Keeley Jones Needs a Hug' AND 'Jamie Tartt Needs a Hug.'

so... 👉🏽👈🏽 i actually want to ask you a whole bunch of questions lol but i'll stick with four and if no one asks the others i'll come back 👩🏽‍💻
but 37, 39, 42, 45 for the ask game 💕
Ooh, Lua, please ask away!
37. Promote one of your own “deep cut” fics (an underrated one, or one that never got as much traction as you think it deserves!). What do you like about it?
I did answer this one, but look, writers need to promote themselves, right? So I'll pick another one 😊
Sparks is the first Hobi fic I wrote, and while there are things I would change about it now (like I would not mention OC's hair in order to make her more of a blank reader insert), I still think it's very sweet and a really great example of setting a scene
39. Is any aspect of your writing process inspired by other writers or people? If so, who?
Oh, I'm sure a lot of my writing has been inspired by authors I've read! Many of my ideas come from conversations with my writer moots and my various groupchats - truly, I'm so inspired by my friends and their brilliant minds, and some of my favorite things I've written have come from just the most random discussions. Like Versus, for example, came from talking with @minttangerines (she's my biggest muse).
42. Have you ever received a comment that particularly stood out to you for whatever reason?
I’ve received so many lovely, funny, touching, unhinged, amazing comments (including your own thoughtful reviews), but this comment on ch 11 of Paradise made me kick my feet and giggle:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I think they enjoyed the climax of that chapter 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
45. What’s something you’ve improved on since you started writing fic?
Damn, that’s a tough one, since I feel like all my weaknesses are glaring! I have tried to focus less on my OC’s physical characteristics, and also have tried to be as culturally-sensitive as I can when writing the members (though I’m sure I’m far from perfect!)
Ask me a fic writer question!

— ㅤ CHOI SEUNGCHEOL !
This man. Everyone can call him Alpha whatever he is the biggest glossy-eye emoji to exist.
Like remember how his voice and eyes became while saying, “Melon ppang, Mingyu-ah.” Yes!
He is such a gentleman, the proper first date, leaving you off at home, and walking back, he checks every box of the perfect boyfriend.
And the same goes for your first kiss.
It is his very gentlemanly attitude that makes your heart melt into a puddle.
He will be standing with you in front of your house as you exchange goodbyes.
And neither of you wants to part for the night and thus you wish time stills.
It doesn’t, but Cheol’s touches linger more, his fingers caress along with yours and even though his hold is light it remains firm on your hands.
“I had a great time tonight.” “Yeah me too.”
Is there anything to talk? No. Are you guys willing to let go for the night? Also no.
You are tempted to invite him inside but your mind balances on the fact a little if it is too early for that.
“I should go.” “Yeah.”
His face hovers over yours and you look up meeting his eyes and god, he is so beautiful.
His feet touch yours and for a fraction of a second, you feel his gaze on your lips but quickly look away.
Unable to control yourself you break into a smile and nod your head to a ‘yes’ and that is all he needs,
Leaning in slowly his lips attach to yours and you love how his lips taste.
Just like cherries you think and kiss him back as his hands holds one of yours and the other is placed lightly on your nape.
As soon as you part, it is all giggles and feeling shy for both of you.
You keep smiling and biting your lips as he leaves and close the door, sinking on the ground.
You feel lovesick and giddy for what’s about to come next for you two.
— ㅤ YOON JEONGHAN !
Jeonghan is a whole menace. The way your relationship is so playful with the continuous teasing and the pranks you play on each other.
Similarly your first kiss is really playful too.
The type that you would not even realise is happening until he has asked it in between his bubbly giggles.
Like hold this scenario, he is blatantly cheating on this video game you guys are playing.
Of course he is denying it while you try to pin it on him and you finally had enough and try to snatch his controller.
He laughs loudly at your failed attempt and stretches his hand more making you climb over him to get it.
Being the teaser he is, he tickles your sides and you fall down on the couch shrieking.
The game is now long forgotten (cue Wonwoo screaming in the VC) and you two are just attacking each other with tickles.
Your laugh and giggles fill the room and in that moment you throw a cushion at Jeonghan who tosses it and jumps over you.
And in between his laugh, he sees your smiling face and feels how lucky he is to have you in his life and ends up blurting.
“You’re so cute, I could kiss you.”
You feel like your breathe stops and Jeonghan realises what he said and your reaction doesn’t help. At all. He messed up.
He starts to slowly get up but you clutch his shirt and pull him towards you whispering “Yes” because finally??????
He balances himself with one hand and his eyes become rounder but he wastes no time attaching your lips to his.
First kisses are never perfect but you love how his lips feel soft and plush against yours.
They feel beautiful and sweet just like him.
When you pull away he looks at you, his eyes filled with adoration while you feel warm from every part of your body.
Jeonghan pecks your lips again, because he can’t get enough of your taste making you giggle lightly.
And suddenly he is tickling you again as if you two didn’t just cross a milestone in your relationship.
That is how natural and fitting it is for him.
— ㅤ HONG JOSHUA !
Joshua is a sweet but crazy boy and that is how your relationship is defined.
And we know he loves rain, way too much! He just loves water, no?
The day is really peaceful, you can smell the ground as the rain hits and you sit by the window enjoying the light taps of the rain against the glass.
Joshua comes up from behind and snuggles into the crook of your neck.
You smile, loving his warmth and his smell beside you and you run your hands lightly through his hair.
And he makes the craziest comment ever- “Do you want to get soaked in the rain?”
You don’t get a chance to answer, before he is dragging you out, his playful giggles contrasting your wide eyes.
As soon as you are outside, Joshua pulls you close to him and giggles.
The protest leaves your mouth but the water hits both of your skin and attach to his hair which makes it look full of beads.
You laugh and giggle at that even though you two are fully soaked and even dance around.
Shoes make sloppy noises and you two will catch a cold, but does that faze you? Absolutely not!
After a good few minutes Joshua suddenly pulls you closer to him and looks at you.
He loves how much you match his energy, how much you are willing to do anything for him (as long as it is legal).
You feel his eyes on your lips and it makes you tense about this being both of your first with each other.
Is it cheesy? Yes. But totally with your consent, light touches and small giggles he attaches his mouth to yours.
The water falls beside you but you love how you two fit perfectly. He pulls you close, hands running through your soaked cloth.
The kiss feels so sweet and crazy just like him, kissing in the rain, so rom-com-ish that it makes you laugh.
As soon as he pulls away he is placing a shy peck on your lips and you stare in his eyes adoringly.
You make out every detail of his face, the water in his eyelashes, his slightly red lips, and shiny eyes, adorable and mischievous smile.
And just like that you guys are kissing again, although this time a lot more messier than before because of you two constantly smiling.
— ㅤ WEN JUNHUI !
Junhui, the sweet playful boy. He loves taking you by surprise.
It’s not like he hasn’t kissed you before, just not on lips. And boy does he plan!
He plans so much that when it comes to do the actual thing everything is thrown out the window.
The sounds of the sea crashing at the shore reaches your ears as the two of you walk at the beach in the night.
He talks casually but is actually so nervous that his hand which is holding you are sweating.
You don’t take it into note a lot, mostly because you are engaged to the sound of his voice and how ethereal he looks.
Plans? What plans? He forgets them all as he pulls you towards the water both of you giggling and squealing.
And as you two are playfully throwing water around he giggles as he tackles you from behind and his soft breath reaches your neck as he holds your waist tightly.
You throw your head back laughing and he looks at you locking your eyes with his. The air thickens in anticipation as his slightly damp hair falls over his face.
One moment you are parting the strands of his hair from his eyes, the next moment he is locking his lips with yours.
You stumble lightly from the weight of his body pressed against yours but Junhui’s hands on your waist steadies you.
Your hands interlock with his soft hair and he smiles into your mouth, making you tug lightly on his shirt.
As soon as you part you both start smiling and giggling like kids as the cool water makes a stark contrast to the deep flush in your skins.
You rake your fingers through his damp hair, parting a few strands again as the air feels like sweet love around silence.
Jun watches you with hearts in his eyes and traces his eyes over your features, leaning in to your touch.
And suddenly his warm breath halts your movements and he gives one look in your eyes and presses his lips to yours. He holds you closer and tighter as he tilts his head to deepen the kiss.
You feel bliss as you round your arms around his neck and your mind feels hazy as Junhui deepens the kiss before pulling away.
Parting, he looks at you and says, “I think I have a new addiction.” He is right, your lips are his new desperation and craving and god he wants more.
You giggle feeling the spark down your nerves at his love-drunk, melodious voice.
The moment last for a while before you squeal as Jun picks you up suddenly and runs making you scream louder. You just never know with his playfulness.
— ㅤ KWON SOONYOUNG !
The adorable little shy bean who is a whole fluff ball of energy.
Our hamster tiger would be so much giggly as he takes you out to an amusement park date.
You two would go on rides, eat a lot of stuff, go through the action and horror houses making you both tired.
The city lights start twinkling as you two decide to end the day with a Ferris wheel ride.
As soon as you two start going up the lights from the ground slowly dim out and the city lights enter through the glass panes.
You look down at your interlocked hands before trailing your eyes up to his to find him already looking at you with the softest smile ever.
You look into each other’s eyes unable to look away and inching closer every second as the wheel goes round.
His grip on your hands tightens in assurance and after a considerable time you two are finally close.
Noses brushing, lips almost touching, his hand inching along your waist as he whispers if it is okay.
Okay? Oh you are more that okay! You nod lightly and he presses his lips to yours as soon as you do.
You hum lightly in the sweet encasement as your hands round around shoulders.
His fingertips dance on your skin, as his lips part and hovers over yours in a feather-like manner.
A small laugh from him makes you smile too at his squished face and half-moon eyes that are twinkling with joy.
(This is too cliché isn’t it? He asks) (Yes) and you hide your smile against his neck.
Presses light kisses down your face before reaching your lips again and it fits naturally against yours.
This one is deeper, heavy with emotions and has a greater tug against your heartstrings as your lips move against each other.
The dim cabin makes it feel all the more romantic and intimate in your personal revelry.
Rosy cheeks and shy laughs until it is time to get off the wheel.
Today was- he trails off with an expecting look in his eyes.
Dreamy- you complete biting your lips feeling shy. Yes, it was overly exceptional!
— ㅤ JEON WONWOO !
It has been a few weeks since you and Wonwoo had started dating.
But you haven’t kissed yet and you are currently standing admiring him from afar.
That was not a problem but you were getting kinda impatient.
Which is wrong but you watch your boyfriend read as the sunlight hits his face your desire gets stronger.
You walk up to him, tilt your head towards him and ask what he is reading.
He looks up, wide eyes twinkling behind the glasses as he animatedly starts to explain about it.
Your head hangs over his face, taking in his features and even upside down you can see how beautiful and ethereal he looks.
You kneel to the floor and slowly thread your fingers through his hair.
With each stroke of his hair his voice gets quieter and breath gets stuck as he locks eyes with you.
What are you doing he asks and you don’t even realise you have leaned close to him.
You gasp trying to get back but he grabs your wrist as his eyes scream don’t.
His eyes travel down to your lips and for a moment you think you are hallucinating before he asks, “Can I?”
Have you continuously dreamt of this? Yes. Were you ready? Hell no.
As soon as you nod he wastes no time in locking his lips with yours.
The kiss is sweet at first before he grabs your chin lightly guiding you throw it.
You feel like vaporizing as you feel his lips move against yours and feel him slightly biting your lower lips.
When you two part, slightly out of breath he grins in a lovesick way saying, “Been wanting to do that for a while.”
You grin before replying, “Me too.”
“Good,” he says before he grabs you by your neck pulling you into another kiss and another until you were tired.
Needless to say you were never tired.
— ㅤ LEE JIHOON !
Jihoon the sweet boy with anger issues.
So now you are here listening to him rant at how messed up the song sounds because one of the assistant producer decided it would be good to add drum sounds.
Truth be told you were rather admiring his face than even attentively listen.
Because he looked so good especially when he is mad and then he looks even more adorable.
You did try to calm him down but that didn’t work as he ignores you and puts his headphones back on.
You sigh and giggle a little at your boyfriend’s red face before you get an idea.
You slowly knock on his headphones and wait for him to respond.
After a quiet moment he opens his headphones and opens his mouth.
Again.
And to do what? Rant.
Before he can do it you pull his chair towards yourself and put your fingers over his lips shushing him.
He looks flabbergasted at your sudden moment before locking eyes with you.
You take the opportunity to press your lips to his as his eyes widen at your bold move.
You senses come back as soon as it was gone and you try to pull back.
But he grabs you by your waist pulling you closer.
The kiss feels light and heavy all at once and you would be lying if you say it feels like a first kiss.
But maybe everything feels familiar with a person you love.
When you break apart you feel him smile lightly as your noses still touch.
“Why are you smiling?” you ask and he shakes his head already knowing the answer.
He is whipped he knows, as he pulls you into another sweet kiss.

kalena speakss 🪽! so here’s the ACTUAL chapter ten, i accidentally posted a different version last night so if you saw that just completely disregard it lmao
July 2025 — Crypto.com Arena, Los Angeles, California 
“‘Preciate you comin’ out, man.” I nod, my hand giving a firm dap to Julian.
Yeah, the Julian who’s girlfriend I seem to be helplessly obsessed with.
We had just beat the Fever at home in a blow out on the second night of a back-to-back. My body is aching, and as soon as I left the locker room, I was ready to push through those metal doors and go home. Maybe stop for some dinner too. 
Until I heard it. The voice that has replayed in my head rather than in my ears for the last week and a half. That slight southern drawl with the occasional upbeat ending. It’s perfect, and I didn't realize how bad I’d missed it until now.
I meant it when I thought I needed a break. Maraye was running laps in my head, like a marathon. She’s all I seem to be surrounded by. But there’s so many issues, and Nika was right: I don’t need to be getting hurt again.
So I stepped back, wanting to figure out what I really did want. 
Now I know that I want her in my bed, hands in my hair, moans of my name leaving her mouth. More importantly, though, I want her to be mine. So damn badly. I wanted to grow with her, watch her succeed up close, to do all the things with her that come with a relationship. 
That shit was fucking terrifying. I can't remember the last time I let a girl get this close to me. To learn me in the way Maraye has been able to. Or even being able to learn her in the way that I have.
So when she stands there, next to Julian in her curve hugging jeans and a cropped shirt with my name and number, her eyes looking everywhere but at myself, I know that something is off.
“Congrats All-star.” She says to me, eyes looking at me but not really. She darts everywhere but at my eyes, which normally are her main attraction.
The All-star list dropped at halftime, Rickea and Dearica making the list as well. A smile spreads onto my face and I finally drop my hand from Julian’s. “Thanks, angel.” It slips. I shouldn’t have said it, not here in front of him. I knew I shouldn’t.
It was so natural, falling from my tongue like butter. 
I see his eyebrows furrow, looking down at his girlfriend as if she would stop me from calling her that again. 
“You comin’ to Indy?”
“I was thinking about it. Yeah.” Raye answers and it’s the first time throughout this awkward exchange that I actually see those eyes. Wide, doe, eyes that I know I could happily spend the rest of my life just looking at. “Uh, we. We were thinking about going.” She corrects when Julian darts his head to her.
I nod, wiping the palms of my hands on the side of my jeans. 
“I should probably head out, Ion wanna keep y’all too long.” I force out through the tension. I don’t want to leave. Because I know that as soon as I do, I’m going to force myself into more dry texts and ignore her calls and keep myself away from looking at that damn perfect face. 
“You sure?” Julian questions me. His tone is skeptical, like he knows something that I don’t. Or that he knows something that he shouldn’t.
“Yeah, I got some places to be at too.” I hum, pulling my phone out to look at the time. It’s not late, barely even 10 o’clock, but that slight movement is enough to make them both think I have other plans.
Maraye pushes her curls from her face, the bright white hallway lights make her gold septum glisten in her nose. “I’ll see you around then?” She asks, taking a step closer to me and we hug.
The only difference is this hug isn’t what I’m used to. It isn’t the hug where her arms wrap around my neck, mine feel on the swell of her ass, and I can smell every bit of the scent she chose to wear. That would be too risky.
So instead she holds me by my side, my arm cautiously around her shoulder while her palm presses into my back. It’s difficult for me to keep my composure because deep down I know that I should be able to hug her however I damn well please. 
And I can’t.
All because of him. It’s always him.
The hum of the engine is all that fills the car, along with the occasional voice of whatever rapper Julian has playing at minimal volume while I drive. 
It’s been like this for a minute. Just the two of us sitting quietly, my finger tips occasionally tapping against the steering wheel while he stares out the window. I’m supposed to be taking us to his place, we’d eat some dinner and maybe watch a movie.
“So, you and Paige, huh?” He asks, his voice so monotonous.
My hands start to sweat and nearly slip down the wheel. “What?”
He turns his head towards me and though my eyes are glued to the road ahead, I can feel the way his dark eyes are burning holes into my skin. 
“You and her. Y’all got something goin’ on? She callin’ you angel and you don’t do nothin’ about it?” His voice casually picks up, going from nonchalant to angry in a matter of seconds. I briefly look at him, and even through the darkness of the night I can see his light skin slowly build in a red tint.
“Paige and I are friends, Ju.” I breathe out. I know that’s true, even though it’s also a lie. Paige and I stopped being just friends the second I kissed her on my couch.
“Then why the hell is it that you been hanging out with her so much, but the second I’m around y’all wanna be all awkward and you wanna look at the floor?”
It’s my fault for thinking that he wouldn’t be able to pick up on our awkward exchanges, because the tension was very noticeable. It was my first time seeing her since that night in the studio. She’s been avoidant lately, and honestly I couldn’t even blame her.
She was over it. And I guess I am too. 
Yet, here I stand, lying to Julian once again and letting him think nothing is wrong. Keeping him at arm's reach when I should really be letting him go.
“I’m sick of fighting, Julian.” I told him. That’s also true. I am so damn exhausted from all the back and forth yelling, but right now I just really don’t want to have this specific conversation. 
“Answer my fucking question, Raye. Are you fucking her?” He yells, never taking his glance off the side of my face.
“What, no!” I look over at him again, my hands shaking while I grip the wheel. “Quit being so insecure! Just because I got good people in my life, doesn’t mean I’m fucking them. I’m with you.”
I hate this. This lying and manipulation. I fucking hate it because this isn’t who I am. I’m not an asshole. I’m not a cheater. Then here I am, doing everything I write about in my songs, hurting him just to protect my own image.
“Insecure? You think I’m jealous of that fucking fag? Like she can give you anything that I do.” He scoffs. His words hit my ears and as I process them, they taste bitter. Every gear in my head starts turning and I start to get angry. Not at what he said, but how he speaks about her. I waste no breath in defending her.
“Watch how the fuck you talk about her, Ju.”
We approached his apartment complex.
“Why you defending her?”
“Why are you calling her out her name?” I yell back.
He’s silent. We stop at a light and I turn my whole head to make eye contact with him. “Should’ve never that you get close to that fuckin’ dyke. You wanna fuck around with her, go do that shit then.”
I reach for the panel on my door, pressing the unlock button. The click echos through the car. “Get out.”
He looks at me surprised, as if he didn’t expect me to say that to him. “Raye.”
“No. You wanna talk to me crazy, you wanna talk about Paige crazy. So get the fuck out.” I reason. “Your place is right there. Walk. Get the fuck out of my car, Julian.”
He scoffs, slumping back against the seat. “Man, you crazy.”
“Get out of my car. You think I’m fuckin’ joking?” I laugh completely irritated. I reach for his phone, taking it off aux and throwing it into his lap. I look at him expectantly.
Julian huffs, unbuckling his seatbelt and opening the passenger door. He hops out, looking at me with squinted eyes. “So you—”
“Close my door.” I cut him off, no longer looking back at him, but the green light that is blaring at me to keep driving.
He huffs, slamming the door and I speed off as soon as he does so.
I sit with my own thoughts. So much running through my head, but it all goes back to her. And suddenly I don’t care about the lying or the distance. I just want to talk to her. To talk to Paige.
I pull off into a nearby gas station, pulling my phone out of my purse.
can we talk?
It isn’t even a few seconds before the gray text bubbles pop up on my screen. Then they disappear and I groan.
Until they pop up again, this time fast and insistent.
Yeah we should
Come over?
I know better. Me and Paige don’t have a great track record of keeping our hands to ourselves when we’re alone. So I should text back that we should meet somewhere else.
That’s until she texts me again: Please?
send your addy
And she does.
My leg bounces from where I sit on a kitchen stool. It’s not in the anxious way, but in the distracting way. My arm is stretched out over the edge of the counter that I lean on. My fingers tug on my bottom lip while I look at her.
Raye’s been here for a few minutes, going on about something Julian has done. I was listening at first, I think he knows and argument being the specific terms that stuck in my head.
She stood in front of me, pulling her curls up into a bun on the top of her head. It makes the hem of that damned cropped shirt ride up on her body and expose gold jewelry on her belly button.
So yes, it’s hard to listen to what she’s saying when she’s practically tempting me right now. But I do listen when she says:
“I dunno. I’m done with all of this shit.”
If I were a dog, my ears would practically be perking up at it. I sit up straight, leaning with my elbows on my knees to get closer. To make sure I heard her correctly.
Throughout this whole encounter with Maraye, she’s only ever told me she was tired or that she was bothered. Not once did she ever tell me she was done, and that makes all the difference.
“You’re done? For real?”
“Yes. I dunno. It’s not that simple, P.”
I let out a scoff. “Yes it is. You aren’t comfortable ‘round him like you are with me. You don’t spend all day with him like you do with me.” I shrug my shoulders, slightly frustrated. I feel like I’ve given Raye enough evidence that I’m better, as cocky as it sounds. But yet here we are. “It’s hella simple. You jus’ don’t wanna admit it.”
“I didn’t come here for you to scold me.”
“So whatcha come here for then, huh?” I ask, standing up from the stool. 
My hair tumbles down my shoulders as I tower over her. Maraye’s eyes trail down my body and the white shirts that clings to each ridge of my body.
“You wanna kiss me? Wan’ me to fuck you? Wanna keep talking about him? What do you want, Raye? ‘Cause I know what I asked you to come here for.”
“And why’d you do that, Paige?” She responds, getting in my face.
I should be bothered and put up yet another defense. Then I’m reminded that she’s already defensive, herself. She’s frustrated from all the arguing that took place the minute I left her and Julian at Crypto. 
She’s mad. And normally I’d justify her anger, but tonight; it’s all our fault. We made a mess, started seeing each other in a way that we shouldn’t have and Julian caught on. He knows.
“Well for one, Ion wanna be a home-wrecker.” I say, throwing my hands up. “You might be over him theoretically and he might be a raging asshole, but I don’t do that shit, Raye.” And I don’t.
Fooling around, seeing multiple girls, I used to do a lot of it. I can admit that. Home-wrecking, however, has never been on my list.
Raye lets out a snort. “Spell theoretically.”
I huff and run my hands through my hair. “You’re so unbelievably annoying.” I respond, stepping away and walking past her to my couch but she tugs my arm.
“Okay, wait.” She laughs. “You’re right.”
“I’m always right.”
“Yeah, okay.” I stand in front of her again. This time we’re even closer, her hand wrapped around my wrist. “What do you want me to do?” It’s more of a statement than a question because she knows.
She knows I want her to breakup with him and choose me and then let me fuck her within an inch of her life immediately after. That, I could get behind.
“You wanna hear me say it?”
“Please?” 
Raye’s free hand trails up my arm. She’s so tempting, the words so close to dying on my tongue and not being heard at all. Her voice is so enticing, and she looks up at me through her lashes like I hung the moon.
“I… want you, to make a fucking decision.” My voice doesn’t waver as I look deep into her eyes. “You can choose whoever you want, but I can’t keep doin’ this. You choose.”
This is the closest I’m going to get to fighting her off. I don’t push her arm off of me or tell her to back up. This is the closest I’ll get, because I simply can’t get enough of her.
“Okay.” Maraye nods, clutching onto my bicep.
“Okay? That’s it? You not gonna yell at me for making you choose?”
She smiles and shakes her head. The bun on her head shakes a little, and it makes me smile too. “I’ll choose. You gotta give me some time tho’. Few days maybe?”
It seems pretty reasonable to me, though I’d rather she break up with him right this minute over the phone, that would be just a bit crazy.
“We got a road trip. I’ll be gone all week, that work?”
“You’re really serious about this, huh?”
“I just need to know. You pick him, fine.” I shrug. “But if you pick me, even better.”
She grins. “It’s giving Meredith Grey.”
Now I push her off me, listening to the way her laugh fills my ears and bounces off the walls. She stumbles back a tad before catching me on the couch. My back rests against it while Maraye stands in front of me, the spot between my legs becoming designated for her.
“C’mon. It was funny!”
“You’re an idiot.”
“I’m a sexy idiot.”
I hum, rolling my eyes.
It was things like this I missed. The laughter, the jokes, the comfort. Sure she was stunning, and the flirting and kisses were otherworldly, but this topped it. These moments with Maraye that were so hard to come by.
I like the way she looks when she’s looking down at me. It’s intimidating, but still so damn hot.
“A very sexy one.” I finally respond, sitting up more so she can see me better. “These jeans look incredible on you, by the way.”
“Yeah? You wan’ a 360?” Raye jokes.
“I want a 180, angel.” I reply. My hands reach for her hips, playing with the fabric of her belt loops. Raye brushes me off, making a frown spread across my mouth. 
She bows her head to check the dainty watch on her wrist. “It’s late, P. I should get home.”
“You could stay here with me.” My hands drop from her body, instead using my eyes to suggestively try and convince her to stay the night. It’s a joke. Mostly.
“And you were the one who said no more home-wrecking.”
My lips are pressed against hers, tongues swirling and spit swapping between the both of us.
It’s urgent. More urgent than any way Paige has ever kissed me before. She doesn’t give me a second to think before her finger is breaking me open and I’m gushing all over her. The stretch is so foreign, and I can’t believe how unbelievably full I feel with just one finger.
“Like this?” She asks after pulling back with a nasty suck of my tongue. I’m nodding at her words tucking my lip between my teeth. 
“Mmph yes. Yes.” A whimper rumbles from my mouth. I clutch into her shoulder, tossing my head back until it hits the pillow under me. 
My legs start closing in on themselves when she adds a second one. “I’m tryna make you feel good, baby. Why you fightin’ me?” Paige asks. Her voice as deep and hungry as I ever heard it. 
Her fingers curl into me, thumb rubbing tight circles on my unbelievably sensitive clit. She found it within a matter of milliseconds, it felt like. And the lights were off.
“He fuck you better than me? Huh?”
I barely hear her over the sound of my own cunt but that doesn’t stop me from shaking my head eagerly. “No. Fuck no, P. He doesn’t.” 
I’m nearly melting at the stimulation. Her voice in my ear and her finger’s scissoring me apart
“P.” I hiccup, nothing else filling my head except the pleasure I’m feeling. Her fingers are so damn long, tickling the deepest parts of me that I didn’t even know existed. She consumes me, swallows me whole. 
Her mouth finds my neck again, biting on my sensitive spot and making my eyes roll. I’m so close, my arousal already dripping past my cunt and onto the sheets below my ass. It’s messy. Wet and messy.
“You wanna cum for me, angel?” Paige teases, licking at the mark she left on my neck.
“Fuck, Fuck! ‘Mm God, P, you’re—”
“You’re doin’ so good, ma. I know you wanna cum.” She nods. “Just let me have it.”
“Paige!” I moan, reaching to grip her hand.
“Pretty fuckin’ girl. Cum, baby. I’m right here.” 
Her words add unbelievable fuel to the fire and my back arches underneath her body. She’s talking me through it, bringing me to the edge and I gasp before waking up.
The sun peeks through my blinds and sleep still crusts my eyes. I wipe them, sitting up half naked in my bed. 
I got home late last night. Closer to one in the morning. Paige was distracting, and I simply couldn’t just leave when she was begging me to stay.
My body is sweaty, my breath is embarrassingly ragged, and My panties are so soaked under the shorts I wore to bed. 
When I sit up, the duvet covering my body, I reach for my phone. Then I see them, the hundreds of texts and calls from Julian and the text from Paige.
Hope you make the right decision
I’ll see you when I get back ma 🫶🏼

WOLF BOY
when ao3 goes down, we write tumblr fic... now on ao3 HERE lol
i used the 15/11/24 @sterekdrabbles challenge for this. the prompt words were GREEN, REACH and SCATTER. i'm also tagging @sterekdrabblesgonelong as it's around 1K words and therefore definitely a drabble gone long lol.
it's a spark!stiles slash derek whump sort of affair, just so you know what you're reading xp
.
The dagger is almost within his reach—so very nearly grabbable.
Other than being eight years old in a hospital room with the smell of rotting flowers clinging to the back of his throat, Stiles doesn't think he's ever wanted anything more than this.
Again, Derek hacks out, “Just run, Stiles!”
Again, Stiles answers no—only this time, it's not with his voice but a yellow-green vine of pure light that extends from his fingertips as he pleads with each beat of his heart for the universe to help him, the tendrils stretching, stretching, then victoriously winding themselves around the handle of the blade. 
“Oh, shit,” he mutters, now with his actual voice, and then the vine of his will is pulling the knife flush into his grip. 
He looks up at the hunter, their face a billboard of surprise, before a shriek rips itself from her belly at the very same time Derek roars from where he's tethered and bound, the wolfsbane-laced chains melting further into his flesh as he tries in vain to once again break free.
Then the evil bastard is flinging herself at Stiles—and straight into the dagger aimed at her solar plexus that his light sends sailing across the cave, plunging it deep into her breast.
It might not be bullseye, but it does the trick.
As she drops to the dusty ground like a discarded ragdoll, the other two hunters' heads snap like whiplash to where Stiles is sprawled, a look of pure terror marring their faces.
The cowardly fuckers drop their weapons and scatter, leaving Stiles and Derek alone—other than the dead woman at their feet—in the large cave they'd dragged Derek into a few hours ago.
Derek's wrung out, and beaten down, but alive. 
At once, Stiles scrambles to his feet to get over to where the ʼwolf is chained up, almost falling back down again when his probably sprained ankle gives way beneath him. 
“Stop fucking hurting yourself,” Derek hisses, and for once in Stiles's insane life he wishes he could gnash his teeth and roar in response, and it have an effect that would be anything other than ridiculous. 
“Oh my god,” he protests instead. “I've just saved your offensively pretty ass with my new spark's apparently awesome Gio-Ju-ju, a-hole, so how ʼbout we be a little less sourwolf and a lot more gratefulwolf to ol’Stilesy boy here, hmm?” he sasses, finding the key to the padlock that's bolted to Derek's chains on the flat rock where his flashlight got dropped when confiscated by one of the hunters. 
Stiles feels petulant, and justified in that petulance as he discards the now unlocked padlock. Then he feels a little wrong-footed when Derek quietly mumbles, “Thank you,” because the guy sounds both in a considerable amount of pain and genuinely grateful to Stiles.
Stiles sighs and kneels down to start prizing the chains away from Derek's red-raw, still-smoking skin, the ʼwolf's forever-stoic face giving away nothing of the hurt he's obviously suffering at the cruel hands of the aconite still desperately trying to seep its way into his body.
“You don't have to do that for me, you know,” Stiles says carefully, hinting at Derek's display of endurance.
Derek's eyes flicker from mid-space to Stiles's face, and Stiles suddenly notices that their heads are actually dizzyingly close.
He swallows, and the sound of it echoes around the cave as if mocking him. 
The second he peels away the last link in the chain attached to Derek's skin, and before Derek can push him away, Stiles brings a hand to Derek's throat to feel for his pulse. 
When determined fingers find it, Derek's face does a thing that Stiles hasn't seen it do before; it's this combination of incredulous and vulnerable, and is so unprecedented, and so beautiful, that Stiles sort of wants to cry about it. 
“You can hear mine,” he superfluously reminds Derek, before saying what he really wants to. “It's not fair I don't get to know—that you're alive, I mean. Like, I know I can see it but… The tactile reassurance? That's, uh, you know, kind of nice, too.” 
Man, he spends way too much time with werewolves. 
Then, when he licks at his dry lips and Derek's pulse quickens under his fingertips, Stiles is so much more than simply placated.
Taking a steadying breath, he feels a million trillion miles away from anything even remotely resembling steady.
He studies Derek's face some more for confirmation of his suspicion, and finds something akin to bashful swimming amid the swirls of those gorgeous seafoam eyes.
Derek likes him back?
Stiles sinks his teeth into his bottom lip; Derek's pulse starts to race. 
Amazingly, it seems Stiles isn't alone in the want he feels deep in his gut, and as it grows and spreads to his extremities, his fingers and toes now tingling with it, he reckons he's maybe beaten-up and bleeding out and half-braindead enough to have the balls to actually do something about it. 
It must be biological, he thinks as he licks at his lips again, that his body somehow knows exactly what to do to hopefully get Derek to do exactly what Stiles wants him to—lick Stiles' lips for him, that is—without him making an actual fully-formed decision on the matter.
Although as soon as he's thinking that, the decision to kiss Derek is unequivocally made—even if it's going to get him shoved into the dirt for trying. 
He's about to lean in when one of Derek's already beginning-to-heal hands stops him by bracing his shoulder. 
“I can smell your pain, Stiles,” he says. “Let me help.”
Stiles tries not to smile as he lies through his teeth. “Hurts here, the most,” he murmurs, touching two fingers from the hand not at Derek's pulse to his bruised, bloody lips. He then curls the other hand further around the werewolf's neck, to hold on.
Derek starts to pant, and Stiles has to hold in a whine.
The werewolf sounds absolutely wrecked when he asks, “Do you have any idea what you're doing to me by wrapping your hand around my throat?”
Stiles's smile then brakes free and is wry as his wit as he answers, “I've been working hard to find out how to woo you for months now, big guy. What do you think?”
And when Derek lunges to crush Stiles's mouth with his own, teasing Stiles' lips apart with his hot, hot tongue and nipping at them with blunted canines, Stiles reckons he knows what it must feel like to howl. 
.

Okay but imagine eddie and tommy getting into trouble. Like life on the line, deep shit trouble and tommy is severely injured. He tells eddie to leave him- just go- and come back once he gets help. But eddie is like hell no because “if anything happens to you Buck will kill me” then Tommy doubles down because “if anything happens to you evan will kill me!” and that’s when Eddie says “I guess we’ll both just have to make it out of here then”
like that’s my wet dream…

any update on the friends w benefits fic No Rush JW
I have been very busy the past two weeks and my time for fandom frolicking has been spent on starting a 3rd fic (lol oops!) and doing some stranger things projects for jancy week next week SO. friends w benefits has been mostly on pause the last couple weeks. But it's currently at 23k words and counting! I don't want to share another snippet until I get closer to 30k, but it is still very much being worked on and I'm hoping to pick it up again this week. The next scene i need to write is one with Jamie's dad again and ooh boy i have to be in the right headspace for those!
However for your patience here's a tiny snippet from the aforementioned 3rd fic I started (Part 2 of my RJK family holidays series). I'm hoping to finish this one in the next few days so I can publish it on Nov 5th (spoiler alert the "holiday" in question is Bonfire Night, lol):
Jamie continues to stare. Keeley looks…well, not like she’s just spent three hours getting ready, that’s for damn sure. Normally Keels takes that long, you can expect her to strut out like she’s already on the red carpet, dazzling the world in her shimmering eyeshadow and body glitter and hair gems. This Keeley doesn’t even look like she’s ready for a night in at the house. She’s wearing cutoff blue jeans and navy trainers and a cream jumper, nothing exciting or unique or fun about it at all, not even a fun hair clip. If Jamie were worried about her before, now he’s one plain handbag away from calling 999.

al-haitham’s the kind of guy who tilts his head slightly for a kiss before you even lean in to give him one. he just knows it’s coming. expects it. trusts it’ll happen.
he’s yawning when he sits at the table for breakfast, hair slightly disheveled from sleep. he sits down and when you place the mug of coffee in front of him, his head angles a little for that kiss you place on his cheek.
he’s drowned in endless paperwork at the akademiya when you stop by to visit, chuckling when he gives you that look of despair at the all the work he has to do. you don’t even manage to walk up to him fully before he’s leaning in and waiting for the kiss to the top of his head.
he’s shirtless in the bathroom, brushing his teeth at night when you walk in to brush yours too, bumping hips with his as you giggle. you don’t even have to turn before he’s tilting his head so he’s exposed and ready for that gentle peck you leave at his jaw.
“have you ever noticed how demanding you are for these,” you chuckle one day, pressing a kiss to his cheek to prove your point.
he grunts, leaning in and burying his head into your neck as you greet him at the door after a long day. “what makes you say that,” he mumbles.
“you’re ready for one before i’ve even come close,” you grin, “what if one day i don’t kiss you?”
“you’d stop kissing me?” he asks, squeezing your hips as he nuzzles into your neck. something tells you he already knows your answer.
and he’s warm. he’s close. he’s here and he’s everything all at once. he’s all you need and everything you’ve ever wanted. he’s the messy hair of your mornings and the pouty lips of your afternoons and that shirtless back of every night. he meets you halfway—maybe even takes the first step so you don’t have to.
he leans in for that kiss before you do. because he needs you, wants you, loves you—and he never lets you forget it. so you turn your head, press your lips against the side of his head and run your fingers through his hair as he sighs in content.
“no,” you hum, falling in love all over again, “no i’d never stop kissing you.”

Here is my Secret Solenoid for @hapships One of the prompts was for Slipstream and Windblade to meet up in one of Cybertron's last remaining ballrooms. It was such a sweet prompt and I was doing a lot of comic based stuff in November so this happened as well.
Do hope you enjoy! It's been lovely to see @secretsolenoid-revived organising this event! Thank you!

Tumblr media
— ㅤ LEE SEOKMIN !
You were jealous. For absolutely no valid reason. Your boyfriend acted in a musical, its normal to kiss the lead actress but still a small, irrational part of your brain was very jealous.
You look over at Seokmin who was happily collecting some snacks for the next episode where you knew the kiss scene was.
He smiled at you and you smile back trying to get your head straight. Technically you weren’t even dating when it was filmed.
You quietly skip through the channels waiting for him to come.
You feel a plop on the sofa and a hand around your waist and he excitedly asks if you could start it.
You cuddle up to Seokmin as the show starts determined to enjoy this and not think about his lips.
Halfway through it Seokmin has started to stroke your arms like he usually does but you feel stiff because you realised why you were jealous.
Maybe it was because you two haven’t kissed yet.
But the problem was that watching him kiss someone else might increase your desire and that would be wrong because you are the one who had made him wait.
Finally the kissing scene happens and you glue your eyes to the screen so as to not make any eye contact with him.
The episode finishes soon and Dokyeom grins and asks, how it was. Good, you reply and suddenly get up to not face him.
He gets a little confused at your behaviour and follows you holding you by your hand from behind.
“Are you okay?” he asks and you nod but he slowly holds you and turns you around.
“Are you sure?” he asks and you sigh saying, “Fine, maybe I was a little jealous that you kissed her, and I know it doesn’t make sense, because back then we weren’t even dating, but I just can’t help it-“
You shut up as you feel his lips on yours and let out a happy groan.
He smiles into the kiss, as his hands travel down to your waist holding you as close as possible.
You round your arms around his neck manoeuvring into the kiss. The kiss feels like you have reached heaven and you are not complaining.
You both giggle as you part as he says, “Maybe I should have shown you the preview earlier so I didn’t have to wait this long.”
You whine jokingly slapping his arms as he pulls you into another kiss.
And you realise maybe the jealousy was wrongly rooted as you delve into his lips.
— ㅤ KIM MINGYU !
Cooking with him was what you had wanted to do for a long time.
So when Mingyu was at home after long working days you two decided to cook together finally.
And maybe you were starting to regret it a bit.
Even though Mingyu is a very sweet boyfriend and always puppy-coded, he is a very strict cook.
So having fun quickly turned into you learning how to cook and diligently following his instructions on how to do the next steps.
You would be lying if you told you guys weren’t having fun but maybe throwing flour around while he kisses you was too delusional of you.
Because Mingyu is a cleanliness freak and a mess of the kitchen while he cooks is not something he would want.
After the initial process is done Mingyu tells you to rest while he checks upon the later ingredients.
You roam around aimlessly for a while and when you see him standing in a place cutting the additional ingredients you walk towards him.
Mingyu is surprised when he feels your arms creep around his waist as you rest your head on his back.
He is obviously flustered but he tries his best to hide it as he nervously chuckles and asks, “Everything okay?”
“Yes, of course,” you reply resting your cheeks softly on his back as you feel his soft breathing drum around his body.
“Okay,” he whispers back getting back to his work but his find fogs with the domesticity of the situation as he find himself smiling to himself.
Suddenly he turns back and holds you in his arms taking you by surprise as you stare at him with round eyes.
“You’re so beautiful,” he whispers making you blush because at that moment with all the sweat and tiredness you were looking far from beautiful.
Mingyu doesn’t know where he gets the confidence from but he holds your chin lightly asking, “May I?”
You nod, not trusting yourself to talk and he kisses you like he has been waiting for so long. His fingers trace down to yours and entangle themselves with it.
Your lips fit together so perfectly it feels like you have been doing it for years and not just the first time.
Mingyu’s kiss feels like warmth just like him as you melt against him slowly loving how the world slowly dissolves into one big mush.
When you finally part your and his shy giggles fill the air in the warm hue of the room.
— ㅤ XU MINGHAO !
It has been a good fifteen minutes since you have been out, soaked in the rain, crying like a maniac at the park slide.
If anyone saw you right now they would surely call the police (or mental hospital.)
The argument was huge and without even thinking you had ran out in the rain and what hurt you more was Minghao didn’t even follow you out.
While you sat weeping in the rain Minghao frantically is trying to call your phone. It wasn’t raining when you left but now it is and it is worrying him a lot.
Initially he had wanted to give you your space but now he just wishes you home where he can hold you safely.
You finally notice your phone ringing but the caller brings out more hurt as you pick up and scream “No.”
Even though Minghao is taken aback by your behaviour he keeps calm and tries to explain it to you why you should come home and discuss you out.
You get pissed at his nagging and cut the phone, putting it under your jacket as you stare out to the blurry city lights.
Meanwhile your boyfriend frantically searches for an umbrella and runs outside to search for you. After a few turns he finds you sitting at the children’s park and a wave of relief washes over him.
“Come back, we’ll settle this at home,” his voice takes you by surprise but your being the stubborn person you are stay seated.
He exhales trying to persuade you once more and when you refuse he grabs your hand and pulls you up. You do not know where the strength came from today but he drags you back to the house.
All throughout even though you protest he hears nothing of it as he drags you inside the warm apartment and stares at you in defeat.
You are still crying but your wet figure twists Minghao’s heart in a way that hurts as he hugs you softly trying to calm you down.
You push him back taking him by surprise and start blaming yourself for everything before he can even say anything.
You keep rambling about how he deserves better and how you were bad at this and he had enough of it.
He stares at you for a while before pulling you by your neck and puts his face close to yours. It finally shuts you up as you stare at him in surprise.
“I am sorry,” he whispers and places his lips on yours before you can babble more. Your eyes widen in surprise but you slowly melt into the kiss that you had waited for so long.
The giddy feeling in your stomach stretches to an uncomfortable extent as you can’t help but giggle into the kiss making him smile too.
His fingers caress the cold skin under your soaked clothes as he holds you by your waist trying to be closer than before.
When you finally part he says, “Takes a lot to shut you up,” and before you can open your mouth he pulls you by your waist for another kiss right then and there.
— ㅤ BOO SEUNGKWAN !
You and Seungkwan sit on the roof quietly at the end of your homey date.
Seungkwan keeps talking about something that you listen to with an all-smiles face because he is so adorable while explaining like that.
You listen quietly to his yapping and dramatic story-telling a giggle passes out your throat at his actions.
Seungkwan thinks he did something wrong and immediately stops talking and asks, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing, you’re just so adorable,” you laugh softly and Seungkwan is taken aback as he stares with his heated face at you.
“Thanks,” he whispers and puts his head down feeling shy and giddy from your genuine compliment.
“Wait, no, continue,” you say in shock when you realise and he stutters asking if he can and you nod excitedly.
That is how you guys end up talking for more than an hour on the roof and eventually from the sitting position you two slowly lie down beside each other.
After a while a comfortable silence falls over and you two stare up at the sky twinkling with stars.
“The stars are so pretty,” you sigh and Seungkwan agrees with a slight hum. Little did you know he was looking at you instead of the stars up there?
The wind blowing makes you scoot closer to Seungkwan who gladly welcomes you in his arms wrapping them around your shoulders.
Whether by coincidence or pure luck you guys look at each other and smile when it happens together.
You bite your lips looking at him as he keeps staring at you.
And suddenly you feel Seungkwan’s lips on yours softly kissing you. It feels so familiar despite being a first kiss that it doesn’t even take you by surprise as you kiss him back feverishly.
He lips taste like the wine you guys had before coming up and that just adds to the moment so well that you find yourself getting increasingly addicted to how his lips fit to yours.
His fingers slip around your own and holds them tightly as to never let go.
When you guys part, the haze of the moment settles in as you chase for Seungkwan’s lips once again.
Your brain feels mushed as you feel drunk on him and his everything.
And Seungkwan wasn’t any better.
The small giggles fill the air when you kiss him again and he wraps an arm around your neck pulling you impossibly closer to him.
— ㅤ CHWE HANSOL !
You and Vernon had planned on a library date since you both wanted to check out some newly released books.
Well only you, but we don’t talk about that.
You scan through the sections while Vernon quietly sits behind you admiring your love for books.
You gasp in surprise when you finally find the book you were looking for and excitedly get it down.
Vernon quickly came towards you and looked over your shoulders asking, “This is the one you have been wanting?”
“Yes, oh my god, I am so happy,” you giggle excitedly and then add, “But the other part is too high up on the shelf.”
Is there a stair nearby to reach the book? Yes. Will you use it? No. But Vernon doesn’t need to know that.
You purposely stand between him and the bookshelf and point at the highest shelf.
“Can’t you just use the stair?” he asks and deadpans as he points at it.
You snicker and purse your lips whispering, “Of course I can.”
“Or I can just do what you have been wanting me to do,” he smirks and reaches out for the book, easily bringing it down and holding it near your face.
“Thanks,” your face heats up from embarrassment and you reach out for the book.
“Not so easily, you wanted a book-boyfriend moment right?” he grins and you gasp not understanding how he knew that.
“Let me give you that then,” he replies laughing at your shocked face and inability to form coherent sentence.
He bring his face closer to you as you stare at him with wide eyes because never in your life had you thought Vernon even knew those.
“Are you sure?” he whispers once his lips are near yours and you somehow nod not even knowing how to form words.
Vernon presses his lips to yours as your back lightly hits the shelf. You close your eyes kissing him back with fervour loving the way his lips taste like him.
His hand presses down your cheek guiding you through the kiss while your fingers trace his arms as you two smile into the kiss.
When you part you giggle as Vernon presents you the book, “Here you go I guess.”
“I need something more now,” you whisper pulling him by his collar to kiss him again.
— ㅤ LEE CHAN !
You certainly did not complain though mostly because of his sparkling and hopeful eyes and how much he loves dancing and loves you.
Besides he was a great teacher. Chan slowly guides you through the steps and helps you with every posture and you let him do it patiently.
Also, nobody had to know you loved being held like this.
But as time passes, the choreography starts to make you feel hot and having him so close to you didn’t help it either.
You try your best to concentrate but his breath near your ear keeps being a big distraction as you diligently try to follow his instructions.
His hand placements also contributed to a great amount of the distraction factor as it does anything but help you focus.
Chan, however, doesn’t seem to notice your little ministrations as time went on.
“Is everything okay?” Chan asks after a while and you nod light-headedness seeping in as you somehow spell out a weak yes.
He nods and walks away for a bit to turn on the music and you find yourself getting some time to get your head straight.
As soon as the music starts he holds you by your waist and spins you around.
He guides you with through the steps and suddenly spins you around and holds you in place.
“Wait this wasn’t in the choreography,” you stutter out as you lock eyes with him and he smirks menacingly.
“But you weren’t following the choreography that well though, you were interested in something or rather, someone else,” he grins.
Your face heats up at being caught and you scoff, laughing at yourself.
But before you can react, Chan kisses you taking you by surprise. Your eyes widen and you freeze in shock not being able to react at him.
His lips are gone as fast as it came and it leaves you flustered as it was your first kiss with him and you couldn’t even comprehend it well.
You hide your face in his chest letting out a large groan as his laugh fills the room looking at your reaction.
He holds you close, still laughing at your embarrassed face while you whine how unfair he is for taking you by surprise.
When you finally get up he decides to say something that makes you even shyer, “Now can we get back to where we were? This time don’t be too shocked.”

Sparks Fly
Poly!Marauders x fem!reader
Words: ~7.4k
Loosely inspired by Sparks Fly by Taylor Swift
You would be attending your seventh year at Hogwarts in the next few days, and, as a muggle-born witch, you would be sorely missing your iPhone. Modern things like cell phones, smart watches, and ballpoint pens weren’t allowed on castle grounds. So there you were, the day before taking the train back to school, downloading as many songs as you could into your old iPod nano. It was old tech, but it was sturdy, it could hold a charge, and it was easily concealable. Muggle contraband was frowned upon but you figured your head of house would be understanding if you got caught. 
Professor Granger-Weasley was a legend, and you were lucky to be in Gryffindor house under her watchful eye. You’d heard even more wonderful things about her predecessor, Professor McGonagall, but that was before your time. Professor Granger-Weasley was one of the rebel witches and wizards who took down Voldemort in the second wizarding war. 
Professor Longbottom was also among the list, but you had a huge girl crush on your head of house. It was hard not to, she was independent and powerful while still maintaining her femininity and soft touch. 
The only thing you weren’t looking forward to this year was seeing your ex-girlfriend. A Ravenclaw who was more focused on her studies than your relationship, you were still shocked and heartbroken this past spring when she broke things off. 
However, you thought as you walked up to the castle for your last year, this is going to be my busiest year yet, no room to worry about romance. 
You see, you’d be taking extra classes this year. Your head of house had expressed to you that you could use her time turner to make sure you could attend all the classes that you wanted. You were ambitious, and headstrong. It was going to be awesome. 
The issue, however, was that as you were going to use it for the first time on day one of the school year, your ex ran smack into you, causing you to lose your grip on the spinning rings that encompassed the tiny hourglass. It also caused you to crash into the corner you were hiding in and knock your head into the wall.
Suddenly your vision was filled with a blurring whirlwind of students, all in Hogwarts uniforms, walking as if rewinding on double speed. Once you regained your ability to move (ow, your head hurt), you paused the spinning of the time turner and took a deep breath. 
Fuck. 
“Fuck,” you groaned, rubbing the back of your head and coming out of the corner. You needed to figure out what time it was. Unfortunately, you were met with another student running straight at you, red and gold tie flying out of his cloak and fluttering behind him as he looked back. “Fuck!” You backed up but there was nowhere to go, he turned at your voice and all you got a glimpse of was a pair of wide eyes behind a pair of thick glass and a head of curly dark hair. He knocked your head back into the wall and the only thing you could think of as you felt a searing pain in your skull was that there was no way you’d gone far enough back to see Harry Potter’s days at Hogwarts.
When you woke up, you were in the infirmary. Blinking, you looked around and the bespectacled boy, who was decidedly not Harry Potter (but who had a very strong resemblance to him), perked up at your alertness.
“Hey, I am so sorry. I didn’t mean to run into you. Was in a bit of a hurry. Madam Pomfrey’s taking good care of you, though,” his words blurred into the background as you took in your surroundings. Things looked similar, but your infirmary had a different nurse by a different name. You didn’t know a Madam Pomfrey. You must have gone back further than you thought. The thought sent a panicked jolt through you as your heart rate skyrocketed. Fuck.
“What… Um,” you paused, not sure who to trust with this information. But you didn’t have anybody else, and this guy had waited by your bedside to make sure you were okay. “What year is it?” His tanned skin blanched and his eyes went wide. 
“Have you got a worse concussion than I thought? I didn’t think I ran into you that hard. I’ll call for-” you reached out and grasped his arm before he could stand. 
“That’s not it,” you sighed. “I was using a time turner and my ex girlfriend ran into me and I messed up my calculations and I was supposed to go back about an hour and a half and I think I’ve come back like… several years.” You put your best pleading look on your face to make yourself seem genuine, you needed him to believe you. 
“Well,” he drew the word out, and you sort of liked the way his lips wrapped around it. He had a nice voice. “I can help you figure that out, even if it does sound a bit unbelievable. What year did you come from?” He was smiling awfully disarmingly, and you sighed, internally bracing yourself. 
“Twenty twenty-four.”
Your assailant went through what looked like all the stages of grief before landing on hesitant acceptance. So you were further back than you thought. 
“I hate to be the one to tell you this,” he said in that smooth voice, and you closed your eyes against the headache you knew was coming. “It’s nineteen seventy-seven.” 
“James, did you hit the poor girl so hard she forgot what year it was?” Another voice approached, but your mind was reeling. 1977. You were trying to think of any famous James’ but that’s such a common name and you were always awful at wizarding history. 
That was, until the second person walked up. Sirius Black. A very young Sirius Black.
“Sirius Black?” Your brain-to-mouth filter must have broken. 
James looked over at you, eyebrow raised, as if saying I thought you were from the future.
“He’s,” you paused, both their inquisitive sets of eyes on you. “He’s famous where I’m from,” you muttered, eyes searching around. If that was Sirius Black, this must be James Potter. Oh, Merlin. You were in for it. 
“She’s from the future,” James deadpanned to his friend, and you facepalmed. Like, literally. You slapped your hand to your face. 
However, Sirius seemed to take his friend at his word, only raising an eyebrow at that bold declaration.
“Please don’t tell anyone else,” you groaned and turned your legs over the side of the cot you were on to make your way to standing, despite your pounding headache. 
“Well we’re going to have to tell Moony and Wormtail,” James added matter-of-factly. “Friends don’t keep secrets this big from each other.” You groaned and stretched, cracking your aching back in the process.
“You can do that. I need to make a plan,” you took a step forward. Or, you tried to. Maybe you were actually concussed, because you wobbled a bit and nearly fell over. You would have crumbled to the floor if not for James and Sirius’ quick reflexes. 
“I may be worse off than I originally thought,” you grumbled. “But I am fine,” you pulled your arms and waist free from their strong arms and took a much slower step. “See? I’m fine.” You were a bit lightheaded and your head hurt more than a bit. But if you were going to fix this, you’d need to see the headmaster. 
You knew they were watching you, and you were studiously ignoring it. So studiously, in fact, that when you finally made it to the entrance, you ran into what must have been either an immovable object or an unstoppable force for the millionth time that day. Yet again, before you crumpled into the floor like a broken toy, strong arms reached out and helped you up. 
“Sorry about that, beautiful,” you blinked slowly and looked up into another magnificent face. This one was littered with scars and freckles. 
“They don’t make boys this pretty where I’m from,” as soon as the words left your mouth you wished you’d died on the spot. However, the boy (who must have been Remus Lupin) only smiled at you indulgently.
“On second thought,” James called out. “I think I knocked her into the wall harder than I thought.”
That was your introduction to the Marauders. You met Peter soon after. He’d been distracting the professor James was running from. They walked you to the Gryffindor common room, explaining that it might be best to recuperate while the headmaster was out of town. 
“I really am sorry for running into you,” James was apologizing for the umpteenth time, and you were beginning to get the feeling that he was a real softie. Big muscles, strong jaw, but a big teddy bear inside. 
“It’s alright,” you said for the millionth time. “You were the second person to knock me into a wall headfirst today, and the first time I think was on purpose. So you’re really in my good graces. You’re just clumsy.” 
“Someone knocked you into a wall on purpose?” Remus looked rather concerned, eyebrows pulling together from where he perched in a comfy looking armchair in an even comfier looking sweater. 
“Oh yeah, you did say that your ex ran into you,” James nodded to himself. “Though I didn’t think she did it on purpose.” You were trying to ignore the raised eyebrows of your new acquaintances. Maybe people weren’t cool about bisexuals in the seventies? 
“Yeah well she was a Ravenclaw. They are notoriously bad at interactions with other people,” you grumbled. “I thought I could change her,” you shrugged humorlessly. “I was wrong. She still harbors ill feelings towards me.”
They were still looking at you quietly.
The silence dragged on. 
“Look, I know it’s like the nineteen hundreds but if you’re homophobes we’re going to have issues,” you put on your deadliest glare (or… whatever you could put on your face with the headache plaguing you).
Peter barked out a laugh, which seemed a bit unlike him. He’d been a quiet and nice boy, nothing like the traitor you knew him to grow up to be. Four sets of eyes snapped to him and he rolled his eyes.
“You don’t have to worry about us being homophobes,” Peter elaborated, and, well… You supposed you would have to take him at his word. You shrugged. 
“So, if the headmaster is gone, what do I do? I don’t want to mess with the time turner and end up even further back. I don’t even know if it goes forward,” you asked when the night was deepening. 
“You could talk to Minnie in the morning,” Sirius recommended. Right, they had mentioned Professor McGonagall at some point earlier. You were going to fangirl to death.
“But I don’t have clothes or a room or identification. All I have is what’s in my pockets which is literally just my,” you reached in and felt around. “A handful of galleons and my iPod.” You were met with questioning looks and you sighed. Right. 1977. “It plays music.”
You pulled it out of your pocket, the old corded headphones all knotted up. As you untangled them you explained that you could download digital music onto it. You weren’t sure if it made any sense to them, so you told them you’d show them some other time. 
“It’s muggle tech, and it’s from the early 2000s. So it’s old by my standards,” you shrugged. 
“Hey, what am I famous for?” Sirius finally asked after a beat of silence. You swallowed, mouth suddenly dry. You couldn’t just tell him that he wrongfully spent twelve years in Azkaban. You’d have to word it carefully.
“You saved the child of the prophecy and helped in the effort to win the war.” 
“The war?”
“I feel like I am genuinely going to fuck something up if I tell you any more,” the words were said apologetically. You weren’t sure what else to say. 
“Well, we can always ask Lily if they have an empty bed. Her roommate is always sneaking off to Ravenclaw tower to stay with her boyfriend,” Remus was back on task and you were grateful for the reprieve. 
“Nah, they’re all there tonight. They’re having a lovers’ quarrel,” James replied, and your hopes of getting a good nights’ sleep shriveled up. 
“Well then,” Sirius made a show of looking thoughtful. “You could stay in our room, though it’s against school rules to have a girl in the boys’ dormitory.” You weighed your options and only came to one conclusion. 
“Rules were meant to be broken,” you smiled awkwardly. “That is, if you all don’t mind. I can sleep on the floor if you have an extra pillow.”
“Nonsense,” Sirius stood and reached his hand out to you, which you gratefully took. You were still a bit unsteady on your feet. “I’ll share with Jamesie and you can have my bed.”
James groaned loudly, complaining that Sirius was a cuddler and a portable heater once asleep, but you could see his tanned cheeks darkening with a flush. That was curious. 
“As long as you don’t-” Sirius cut you off with a wave of his hand. 
“Don’t worry. It’s not a hardship to help out someone in need,” he smiled over at you, and you tried to think back on his history. You were always awful at history but if you remembered correctly he moved in with the Potter’s sometime during his teenage years. Maybe he was paying the kindness forward. 
The issue, however, was that you were in a room full of four boys in various states of undress. Pajamas was a loose term for what they wore. And you were still in your uniform. 
“Here,” you looked up to see Remus leaning against Sirius’ bunk with a pile of clothes folded neatly in his grasp. “We’ve given you a few options since you don’t seem to have any sleeping clothes. James will keep watch outside the bathroom door if you want to clean up.” You looked over and the muscular boy was giving you a thumbs up. “We can send your uniform to be cleaned by the house elves overnight.” You nodded mutely, overwhelmed by the kindness of strangers. 
“Thank you.” With that, you collected the stack of pajamas and James led you to the bathroom, which he quickly scouted and declared clear. 
Once inside, you exhaled deeply. This was a ginormous clusterfuck. 
You were glad, however, to find a towel and a bar of soap at the bottom of the stack. Cleaning up would definitely help clear your mind. 
Once clean, you changed into a pair of sweatpants that were too long for you, a white t-shirt, and a sweater that must have belonged to Remus. 
“Hey,” you cracked the door open and found James’ back facing you. 
“You done?” 
You hummed your assent and he turned, giving you a goofy smile. 
“Those don’t fit you very well.”
“Not everyone is ten feet tall, you know,” you rolled your eyes and followed the boy back into the dorm room. 
Once you were sat on Sirius’ bed, you felt the weight of your situation closing in on you, your heart pitter-pattering at breakneck pace. 
“So,” you started, drawing the word out as you picked at your nails. “I think I’m probably gonna have a menty b pretty soon, so if you don’t mind I’ll just close the curtains and consider my existence in silence.” There was a pregnant pause and you battled on. “I don’t mean to be rude, but I need to deal with the feelings I’m feeling right now.”
More pause.
“What, in Merlin’s name, is a ‘menty b’?” Sirius’ eyebrows were up in his hairline and you choked on a laugh that sounded more like a sob. 
“Uh, mental breakdown?” It sounded like a question when you said it, but it took a moment for you to realize that slang was a lot different in 1977 than it was in your time. 
“Are you going to be alright?” That was Remus, and you were beginning to get the sense that he was reading your facial expressions and tone of voice more effectively than the others. 
“Probably,” you shrugged. “But my other option is succumbing to the crushing meaninglessness of life, so,” you paused for drama this time. “I can suck it up, I just need a good cry and I’m not about to do that in front of four strangers.” 
“Fair enough,” Sirius muttered to himself. 
“So is everyone in the future so nihilistic?” Peter asked you, and you quirked an eyebrow at him. “What?” He asked, defensive. “Nietzsche was a wizard. He just dabbled in muggle philosophy from time to time.”
“Well, to answer your question, I would say that my generation is. But like nihilistic in the ‘nothing matters so I can do what I want’ way. Whereas the generation that preceded me is more ‘nothing matters and I’m fucking depressed about it’ way.” 
You were met with confused looks. You sighed, there was no way you could explain the nuances of millennials, gen z, and gen alpha in one night. 
“I’ll explain later. Goodnight, boys!” You smiled more cheerfully than you were feeling, and shut the curtains to Sirius’ bed, casting a silencing charm as you did so. 
You inhaled deeply, and exhaled until you couldn’t anymore. 
There’s nothing I can do tonight. Not until the headmaster is back. Tomorrow I’ll talk to the head of house and see about going to classes.
Until then…
You tucked your earbuds into your ears and selected a playlist that would maybe take your mind off the situation. 
The way you move is like a full on rainstorm
And I'm a house of cards
You're the kind of reckless that should send me running
But I kinda know that I won't get far
And you stood there in front of me just
Close enough to touch
Close enough to hope you couldn't see
What I was thinking of
Drop everything now
Meet me in the pouring rain
Kiss me on the sidewalk
Take away the pain
'Cause I see sparks fly, whenever you smile
Get me with those green eyes, baby
As the lights go down
Gimme something that'll haunt me when you're not around
'Cause I see sparks fly, whenever you smile
You had the mind to turn off your iPod when you woke in the middle of the night, not wanting it to die. The next time you woke, it was to a knock on the wood frame of the bed. 
 “I’m up, I’m up,” you groaned and pulled open the curtains, the pinkish yellow early morning sun shining in. 
“If you want to talk to Minnie, you’ll have to catch her before breakfast,” James was whispering, and you peeked out to see Remus, Peter, and Sirius still asleep in their beds. 
“Why are you up?” You rubbed at your eyes and swung yourself out of bed, pleased to see your uniform had been returned by the house elves. “I mean, thank you,” you offered him a soft smile, which he returned tenfold. “But why are you up?”
“Gotta go for a run. I’ll see you later, no more running into walls, alright? Don’t want you doing any more damage to that pretty head of yours,” and with that, he was gone, leaving you flushed in the morning light. 
Jeez, handsome and flirty. I’m not going to survive it here. 
It wasn’t hard to find Professor McGonagall, and when she saw you, she stopped dead in her tracks. 
“Hi, Professor, I’ve been looking for you,” you approached her slowly as she raised an eyebrow at you, and you took that as your sign to keep going. It all came out in one long sentence, but your nerves were getting the best of you, to be fair. “So I was using my time turner to go back to take an extra class but someone knocked into me and it went back too far, like fifty years too far approximately, and I don’t know how to get back and I’d like to talk to the headmaster but I hear he’s not here right now,” you inhaled super deeply and pushed on. “And I’m a really good student I swear, I just don’t want to miss any classes until I get back so I was wondering if you could help me out?”
Stunned. Flabbergasted. Shocked. That’s what you were expecting. What you got instead was exasperation. 
“If this tomfoolery has to do with the mischievous boys in your house, I suggest you stop it now.”
“The - who?” Was all you could get out, and the exasperation only increased. 
“Potter, Black, Lupin, Pettigrew. Do these names ring a bell?”
“Well yes, but only because I’ve just met them. I promise I’m not lying. I’m in Gryffindor, I go to Hogwarts, I’m a seventh year student and it’s autumn of 2024 where I’m from.” 
She looked at you for a long time then, and you figured she could tell you were being truthful based on your desperation. 
“We will discuss this with the headmaster as soon as he returns. I will have a schedule prepared for you by the end of the day and you will start tomorrow. You would do well not to bring attention to yourself Miss…”
You gave her your name. 
“If you’ll excuse me, my day just got busier.”
When she was out of sight, you let out a big breath you’d been holding.
I can do this, I just need to lay low until the headmaster shows up.
“Hiya,” you whipped around at the new voice and cursed yourself for it, your head spiking with pain that you’d forgotten about. Maybe quick movements were to be avoided for the time being. “Haven’t seen you around here before, but you’ve got a Gryffindor tie on. Are you new?”
You were staring. You needed to stop staring. Start talking.
“Yes, I transferred from Beauxbatons.” The lie flowed out of you so smoothly you almost felt guilty. 
“Why on earth would you leave a posh school like that to come here?” She was laughing, she had such a pretty laugh, and you found yourself smiling. 
“It’s a long story,” you shrugged. 
“Well, Miss Mysterious, I’m Lily Evans, you can sit with me at breakfast today if you’d like.” 
It was just then that your stomach growled audibly. 
But more importantly. Lily Evans. Holy shit. 
You followed her to the great hall and sat down all in a state of numbness. She was an icon. A total badass. And you’d just met her. 
“Hullo, boys. This here is my new friend. She just transferred from Beauxbatons. Go on, introduce yourself,” she was looking at you expectantly and you turned to look at the rest of the table. A few other incredibly attractive women and the four boys you met last night who were giving you wide eyes. 
You gave your name with a tight smile and prayed they would play along. 
They did, for now, but you weren't sure how long you could keep up lying in front of these legends. Sure, the boys knew about you, but you couldn’t expect them to keep a secret forever. Especially Peter, a known secret teller. 
You explained to them that it was a short notice transfer and you wouldn’t have a schedule until tomorrow, but you’d been sorted into Gryffindor. Luckily, they didn’t ask any more questions and you were left to eat. 
The day flew by and if you were being honest, the next few did as well. Professor McGonagall gave you a typical seventh year schedule so your first few days weren’t stressful. She also assigned you a single room in the girls dormitory and gave you more uniforms. It meant you were lonely a lot, and you found yourself sitting in the common room a lot, reading or doing homework while you plotted your return home. 
It was Thursday of your first week in 1977 when Remus came to sit with you. You finished your homework reading and looked over at him. He was nice to be around, you could work in silence and still feel comfortable. 
“Haven’t seen you outside of class in a few days, we’ve been a bit worried you’d gone back to the infirmary for that concussion,” he was giving you a disarmingly gentle smile and you found yourself returning it. 
“No, just a headache now. And I’m really just waiting for the headmaster to get back so I can figure this all out. Though, I miss my roommates. Living in a single room is lonely.”
He frowned at that. 
“Can’t have that, why don’t you come to Hogsmeade with us this weekend? You can grab some essentials that I’m sure you’re missing, and we can get some more time with you.”
You found, yet again, the heat rushing to your face at the thought of time spent with such handsome boys. You nodded anyway. 
“I would like that.”
So, there you were, that Saturday, sitting in the Three Broomsticks with Sirius, James, and Remus (Peter was behind on his potions essay and was staying back). James and Sirius sat on one side of the booth, rather close together. You were beginning to think the three of them were in some sort of polyamorous situationship based on their casual proximity, their familiarity, and the sheer amount of physical contact they had with each other. But then you were seated next to Remus, whose sweater smelled of pine needles and wood and warm cozy things. And the reason you knew what he smelled like? He was seated so close to you that your thighs were maybe an inch apart, his arm slung across the back of the booth as he lounged back. He looked ever-so casual, but you were intensely aware of his presence.
His proximity to you and the general flirting you’d been the recipient of the last few days from the boys you sat with were the only reason you thought maybe they weren’t in a relationship. Because why would they flirt with you if they were? It was all so fucking confusing. 
Your attention was drawn back to the topic at hand by a slight tapping against your shoulder. Sirius and James were arguing about something, and despite his touch, Remus looked engaged in the debate.
“What do you think, sweetheart?” James suddenly turned to face you. 
“Yes, what do you think? Do you think Hufflepuff is going to beat us in the Quidditch finals this year?”
You scoffed a laugh. 
“Hufflepuff hasn’t won a Quidditch final in sixty years. There’s no-” you cut yourself off abruptly, heart in your throat. “I need to stop talking.”
James was grinning, though. 
“Told you so,” he stuck his tongue out at Sirius, and things were back to normal.
The next few days you were much more careful about what you said about the future. One slip up was minor, but it was really hard. The other thing you were struggling with was that the longer you stayed in 1977, the less you remembered why you had to keep your distance, why you had to be careful.
So, there you were, seated in the Gryffindor common room later that month, worried sick. The full moon had passed a few days ago and you hadn’t seen any of the boys outside of class since. 
Gnawing your lip, you tried to get back into your novel. 
“You said Sirius was famous where you’re from,” Remus suddenly dropped into the space beside you with a soft sigh, his arm draping around your shoulders. 
You hummed your confirmation as Peter, James, and Sirius all filed through and greeted you on their way to their room. 
“What about the rest of us?”
“What about you?”
He sighed, and you only noticed you were staring at him when he turned to look at you. 
“You’re being intentionally obtuse,” he didn’t say it meanly, but you still felt guilty. 
“I don’t think I should tell you why you’re all famous,” you mumbled, thinking about all of their horrible lives. His fingers started tracing shapes into the skin of your arm where they laid, and you found it difficult to concentrate. 
“I suppose that’s fair,” and again, you were staring. You saw the muscles in his jaw tense and release as if he was thinking about something stressful. “I just want to know,” he pressed his free hand into his face, pinching the bridge of his nose. “I just want to know what you know about-” he paused and seemed to lose his nerve, sighing deeply and resting his head against the back of the couch. 
You took a short moment to admire his profile before putting him out of his misery. First, though, you checked that you were alone in the common room. 
“You know, I think we all have issues. I mean, Sirius comes from a shitty family. Peter always gets left out of things. James always gets underestimated. My family disowned me when they found out I liked girls. But what I’m trying to say is, we all have issues and we have to find the people that care about us despite them, and love us because of them. That’s what we in the future like to call a Found Family. And yeah, family isn’t always the one you’re born into. Sometimes a family is a werewolf and three unregistered animagi.” 
You’d been looking into each other's eyes since the start of your little rant, the soft look in his gaze turning into bewilderment. 
“Really, it doesn’t matter why you’re famous, or what I heard about you before I met you,” you continued, taking a risk and gently holding his free hand between both of yours. “What matters is that you all helped me when I needed it, and I won’t forget it. And I’m forming my opinions of you based on what I know from your actions now, not what I read in a Daily Prophet clipping.” 
“You’re amazing,” the words were quiet, spoken reverently. You were forgetting again why it was a bad idea to give in to their flirting. 
“I mean, if you thought I was that amazing, you could just kiss me,” you shrugged, giving him a little grin. “Just saying.” 
He huffed a little laugh through his nose before he leaned down and kissed you with the softest lips. It was so gentle and wonderful and you felt his eyelashes tickle your cheek as he cupped your jaw and it was all perfect. Just perfect. 
“I meant to talk to you earlier about something but then the full moon happened and you were sitting here looking all beautiful and worried and I couldn’t help but ask if you thought I was a monster.” He pulled away a few inches to look at you, his long fingers still cupping your jaw. “But I don’t think I should wait. Because it would be dishonest,” you raised your eyebrows, asking him to go on. “Sirius and James and I are sort of,” he visibly struggled with the word he was looking for. “Well we’re sort of romantically involved, but it’s not a thing with a label,” he was grimacing, as if he knew you’d be mad at him. All you could do was smirk. 
“I fucking knew it.” 
“You - what?” 
“Yeah I could absolutely tell.” 
“Oh. Is that why you haven’t flirted back with us?” 
“Well to be fair, only you and James have been flirting with me.”
“Sirius hasn’t? He talks about how pretty and nice and special you are all the time.”
“Well he thinks I’m a lesbian so maybe he’s just respecting my boundaries.”
“He-” Remus paused, thinking. “He definitely thinks you’re a lesbian.”
“I think we should prank him,” your statement got a good reaction, Remus laughing joyously and nodding along. 
“Okay, what do you have planned?”
“Well, I’ve already somehow gained your affections,” he balked at you, unbelieving. “What? You’re like in the five most attractive people I’ve ever seen in my entire life, you’re smart, funny, popular, and you’re fucking kind. And I am a homeless time traveler with one pair of pajamas to my name.” 
“You don’t give yourself enough credit, darling. But I'll have more time to convince you of that. Tell me about this prank.”
“I mean really it’s all to serve my selfish wants,” you laughed a little. “But if the three of you are in an unlabeled but ongoing polyamorous situationship, and all three of you are interested in me, I just think it could be… Let’s say mutually beneficial for the four of us to recognize and act on those feelings. And I think it would be funny for Sirius to find out I’m actually not a lesbian in a dramatic way. However,” you suddenly remembered your exes of years prior. “Who’s to say if you’re even interested in me in any way other than physically. I don’t know that, and I’m being awfully bold in assuming so. So maybe it’s a bad idea? Oh, fuck I’m going to actually have to move schools this is awful.” You were spiraling. 
“Please, breathe,” Remus was looking down at you, frown twisted in concern. “I’m speaking for myself here, but I bet the boys would agree, I’m definitely interested in you. You’re gorgeous, dove. But you’ve also shown yourself to be strong willed, warm hearted, and a trusting and genuine person. The three of us boys have some weird will-they-won’t-they thing going on, and it’s frustrating because we have real feelings for eachother, but I’m pretty sure Jamie is the only one who has fully developed emotional skills. And, yeah, we’ve been intimate, but how does one tell his best mate that he wants more than that?” Remus rolled his eyes at himself. “It’s hard. But you made it so easy for us to fall for you. It’s so easy to care about you, so easy to want you.” You were too busy in your panic before to make eye contact but now you were looking into Remus’ blown pupils. “So it’s not crazy, what you’re suggesting. And I definitely think it would be mutually beneficial.”
So you sat on the two-seater sofa in the common room for several more hours whispering into the night, cuddled up to Remus and hatching a plan to get James to make a move on you, and how to reveal your bisexuality to Sirius.
My mind forgets to remind me you're a bad idea
You touch me once and it's really something
You find I'm even better than you imagined I would be
I'm on my guard for the rest of the world
But with you, I know it's no good
Things came to a head sooner rather than later. It was a Gryffindor victory party and James and Sirius were celebrating with the team. You’d spent the week sneaking glances with Remus, kissing sweetly in shadowed corners, and curling up together to read in the common room. You also spent the week being flirted with by James, who always knew how to make heat rise to your face. 
You were maybe a bit tipsy an hour or so in, and a boy you didn’t know was asking you about your time at Beauxbatons and telling you how much better Hogwarts was. He was so glad you had come to this party-
“-because I’ve been wanting to talk to you-” you were saved by a similarly tipsy James slinging his arm around your shoulder. 
“Hello, lovely,” his smile was brighter than the sun. Truly. You felt blessed just to have his gaze on you. “I saw you in the stands today, I’m glad you came,” the other boy wandered off, but you barely noticed. 
“I wouldn’t have missed it for the world.” It was the right response, because you were gifted another beaming smile in return. “Plus, you look really good in the uniform.” 
“Is that so?”
“Is what so?” Sirius was grinning as he walked up with three cups balanced in his hands, passing one to James and one to you, which you gratefully took. 
“I was just telling James how delicious he looks in the Quidditch uniform,” you blinked innocently, and you could see the gears start to turn in Sirius’ head. 
“Delicious?” James breathed the word, as if he hadn’t expected such a descriptive adjective to come out of your lips. It was just then that Remus swept Sirius away while he was distracted, and you clasped your fingers with James’, pulling him towards a darkened alcove. 
“And where are you taking me, pretty girl?” His charm was back in full force and you preened under his attention. 
“I just wanted to talk to you alone is all,” you replied, letting your back rest against the wall and using James as a privacy shield against the noise and lights of the party. 
“Well, you’ve got me,” your fingers were still loosely clasped, and he laid his free hand ever-so-gently on your waist. “What is it you wanted to talk about?”
“I have been scheming,” you started, and his dark eyes had an amused glint to them. “And I’ve been trying to get you to kiss me or ask me on a date, but it’s taking so long,” you drew the word out, whining, but in what you hoped was an endearing way. “And Remus and I thought-”
“Oh, so you’ve roped our dear Moony into your schemes now?” He was smiling softly, his affection for Remus and for you shining through. 
“Yes, well, he’s the brains of the operation, I’m the muscle.” you drew your manicured fingers up to grasp at James’ bicep (and what a wonderful bicep it was).
“So, what did the two of you cook up then?”
“Well, Remus is off getting Sirius into position, and I am here seducing you.”
“And what does Sirius have to do with you seducing me?” It was nice, having him this close, only centimeters between you. You could feel the heat off his body, his breath against your cheek. 
“Well, I’ve already gained Remus’ affections, and you flirt with me all the time so I was hoping seducing you would work and not totally backfire,” he was amused with your candor, you could tell. “And Sirius, well I’ve also got a major crush on him but he thinks I’m a lesbian.” You shrugged and James let out an incredulous laugh. 
“You really were scheming, weren’t you?” 
“Well when you’ve gotten emotionally attached to three amazing and beautiful boys who also seem to be pretty emotionally attached to each other,” you gave him a toothy smile. “You’ve got to jump at the chance.” You bit your bottom lip, the tiniest bit of anxiety creeping in. “Which leads me here, to you, in this dark alcove, baring my soul to you and hoping you’ll kiss me.”
“Well how could I deny you when you ask me so politely?” He whispered, adoration shining in his eyes for just a moment before he pressed forward, closing the gap between the two of you. James kissed you like he did everything he cared about: with passion and finesse. He was a great kisser, and he seemed happy to be kissing you, which was a wonderful experience.
The hand on your waist pulled you closer while the other rested at the nape of your neck, gently tilting you so he could explore your mouth better. You found yourself reaching up and feeling the muscles adorning his stomach and chest, your fingers trailing up until you could wrap your arms around his neck. 
You only broke away to breathe, and when you looked into James’ adoring eyes, your heart picked up the pace. You hadn’t felt this way since… well, ever. James, Remus, and Sirius made you feel wanted and cared for. It was wonderful.
“So, in this scheme of yours,” James started, laying a few kisses on your exposed neck. “What exactly are Sirius and Remus supposed to be doing right now?”
“Sirius should be walking over in a few seconds, jealous of me for kissing you or of you for kissing me. One or the other, maybe both. And then, well I’m no mind reader,” you peeked over James’ shoulder. “He’s coming over now so I guess we’ll see.”
It only took a moment for the elder Black brother to make it over to the alcove you were partially hidden in. 
“Tell me,” he spoke as he approached, shouldering in to stand next to James, eyebrow raised in question. “What have you got our sweet Jamesie in this dark corner for?”
“It’s the art of seduction, Sirius,” you smiled at him indulgently. “I wanted Jamie to kiss me just as much as I wanted you to realize that I like boys as well as girls. Got two birds with one stone.”
“And what are your intentions with him?”
“You should be asking what her intentions are with the three of us,” Remus was leaning against the wall, looking handsome as ever, and Sirius’ eyes shot over to him before landing back on you. He took a moment to process, and then he asked you, with a barely-there smile, what your intentions are with the three of them.
“I have feelings for all three of you, you three clearly have something going on with each other, and I am hoping and praying that you also have feelings for me. In which case, we have three options,” you held up three fingers and put them down as you started listing. “Option one, you don’t like me like that, you let me down softly, and we pretend this never happened. Option two, we go have really great sex because you think i’m attractive but you don’t have feelings for me. Option three, and this is my favorite one, we go on a date. All of us. And see where things go.” Your bravado was wearing thin, your heart in your hands as you waited for a response from any of them. 
There was a pause.
“I don’t want to pretend this never happened,” Sirius' voice was quiet and contemplative. “I don’t want to do option two either.” He paused, and you thought you could cry (but you weren’t sure why, you just felt overwhelmed). “I like option three the best, personally, but I’m going to have to consult the board on this one,” he was starting to smile more, that charming twist of his lips that you loved to see. “Boys? What do you think about that?” 
“Dating you two and this gorgeous angel? Literally my wildest dreams come true.” James was nearly vibrating with excitement and the three of you turned to Remus. 
“Why are you looking at me like that? I literally helped come up with this plan,” despite his words, he softened and reached out to stroke Sirius’ back and lock eyes with him and  James in turn. “There was never a doubt in my mind that I wanted to be with you, and our delightful schemer helped make it happen. And isn’t she a sight tonight?” His words had you flushed with heat, the attention of all three suddenly on you.
“Let’s dance, darling,” Sirius reached out to link your fingers together and pulled you out onto the dancefloor. You looked back only for a moment and caught a glimpse of James and Remus embracing in the alcove. “Eyes on me now, pretty girl. They already got to be on the receiving end of your seduction,” his hands were on your hips and yours were around his neck, playing with the baby hairs there. “I also find it unfair that you haven’t kissed me yet,” he was mock pouting in the most endearing way, and you couldn’t help but indulge him, so you pressed your lips to his. For once, everything was falling into place.
