Honestly my only hope for shadybug and claw noir is that they are woefully inept at everything they do. Just like the epitome of losers claw noir tries to cataclysm someone and accidentally touches a falling leaf while shadybug left her yoyo back home cause it didn't go with the fit

Ficlet under the cut!

“Happy birthday Ruby!’’ Different voices all cry out in unison as Ruby stands there with her eyes big and wide.

“You guys shouldn’t have!’’ She says awkwardly - causing Yang tomorrow her eyes and smirk in her direction.  

“Jaune spilled the beans, didn’t he?’’

Ruby scoffs loudly, “Whaaat? How could you possibly assume that our good, kind-natured friend Jaune--’’

“You don’t have to defend me, Ruby. It’s pretty obvious,’’ Jaune says while scratching the back of his head with an embarrassed smile. Weiss rolls her eyes as she walks over, taking Ruby’s arm and leading her in the other direction.

“You can count yourself out of the next surprise party,’’ Weiss says with a pointed look back at Jaune. Ruby giggles before turning around to better keep up with her friend. They begin to approach a round table not that far from them - causing Ruby to let out a giant gasp.

The table is decorated with many different trays of sweets and baked goods - carefully placed in order of colour and type. Ruby turns back towards her friends.

“You didn’t have to do all of this!’’ she says with a big smile on her face as her eyes well up with tears.

Nora giggles, "Ren spent the last two nights making sure every cupcake was perfect, didn't ya buddy?"

Nora finishes the question with a poke to Ren’s ribcage and a smile. Ren looks down at her with a puzzled look on their face, "You only turn 15 once - I don't see why I should hold back." Yang shakes her head as she leans on their shoulder with a smirk.

“We aren’t making fun of ya bud! No need to be self-conscious about the amount you made.

“Anyways,” Yang adds with an even bigger smirk, “Nora’s bottomless pit she calls a stomach will probably eat half of this in like an hour.”

Ruby giggles as she takes a single cupcake and, without an ounce of hesitation, bites into it. The sweetness burst to life in her mouth, causing them to hum in appreciation. “Oh! This is so good Ren, maybe the best thing I’ve ever eaten!’’ She exclaims as she quickly devours the rest of her sweet.

Yang whistles, “That’s a bold statement - considering we grew up around the self-proclaimed 'Best Cook in all of Remnant' - Uncle Clover.’’

Ruby blinks for a few seconds before she laughs in response. “Listen, both are on the same level as the other - actually this reminds me of my 13th birthday,’’ Ruby says happily as she finds herself becoming more distant and lost in thought.

~~~

"Uncle Qrowwww!" Ruby shouts as she jumps onto his arms; he catches and holds her up with ease. "I can't believe I get to spend my birthday with both you and Uncle Clover!" Her eyes sparkle as her legs dangle back and forth mid-air.

"How was the ferry ride from Patch? Hope it wasn't too scary to travel on your own." Qrow questions with a head tilt which only causes Ruby to scoff in response.

"You're talking to a future huntress here, Uncle Qrow - a little boat ride wasn't gonna scare me," Ruby says with a big smirk on her face before she continues "Besides I barely ever get to see you guys these days and no way was I going to spend my birthday alone!"

Qrow chuckles as he affectionately ruffles their hair. "Oz decided to let me have a free weekend. Coincidentally, Mr. Tin Man  felt the same for Clover," he smiles as she jumps back down to the ground.

"Tin man?"

Before Qrow could respond to her inquiry - the front door swings open and another voice is heard. "So, our favourite lil' whirlwind is here already?" Clover says with a smirk as he leans on the doorframe. Ruby lets out a squeal as she zips across the front lawn and practically leaps into her uncle's chest, knocking the man back a couple of feet.

"Uncle Clover, it's been so long!" Ruby cries out as they hug him tightly and Clover smiles warmly down at her. As she drops back down and takes a step back, she can barely contain her excitement, frantically patting her legs. Clover takes a few seconds to recover from the intensity of Ruby's hug, then looks down at her with a proud smile.

"I swear you've grown an inch or two since I last saw ya!" He exclaims with a short gasp - inspecting them closely.

Ruby giggles, "It's actually just my new boots," she explains as she shows them off proudly which causes Clover to whistle into admiration. Ruby pauses for a moment and gestures for their uncle to come closer, the other doing just that, as they stretch up to his ear in a stealthy fashion.

"But if anyone else asks - I finally had my growth spurt." Ruby whispers.

Clover takes a second to process that before he snorts and stands back up, "Your secret is safe with me munchkin." He finishes with a wink and ruffles their hair.  Ruby let's out a playful grunt as she frantically goes to fix her hair back to the way she liked it just as Qrow approaches from behind them.

"I'm gonna pop these bags up to your room, squirt, and then I hafta check on your birthday surprise," Qrow explains as he easily picks up and carries in her assortment of different backpacks and cases. "Why dontcha join your uncle in the kitchen?" He suggests with a smirk towards Clover - who beams brightly in return. Ruby nods enthusiastically and takes hold of Clover's arm.

"Yesss come on Uncle Clover, time's a wastin!" They cry out as they tug Clover in the direction of the kitchen which has her uncle laughing warmly; allowing for his nibling to drag him in the direction she wanted to go.

"We'll see you soon babe - shoot me a text when everything's ready!"  Clover shouts back towards Qrow and the other nods in agreement.

As the duo separated themselves from Qrow - they enter into the kitchen. The whole room was rather neatly kept - totally unlike Ruby’s kitchen at home, which often fell victim to plates and dishes piling up, especially if it was just Ruby and her dad.

On the table in the middle, there was a variety of different baking utensils and ingredients - all neatly sorted and ready to be used. Ruby gasps loudly as they sprint into the room, admiring her surroundings with great excitement.

Clover trails in not far behind the other and chuckles softly, "I was going to have the cake and everything else ready for you, but I remembered how much you love to bake, so I waited to make the cupcakes."  He tells them while watching the young kid take in the sight before them with big eyes.

"Always! Just because it's my birthday doesn't mean I don't want to make badass cupcakes-" Ruby stops herself when she realises what she let slip past her mouth and clears her throat. "Doesn't mean we can't make awesome cupcakes," they correct themself with an innocent smile. Clover rolls his eyes playfully, choosing to ignore that in favour of wanting Ruby to enjoy her birthday.

"Anyways! We should get started - would you like to do the honours?" Clover says as he passes her the bowl of butter and Ruby nods in a dramatic fashion. As she dumps its contents into the mixing bowl before her, her uncle pours some casting sugar in before presenting Ruby with the whisk.

"Use it wisely, young one." Clover says.

Ruby gasps while taking it carefully and nodding, "I won't let you down good sir." She tries to keep up the serious demeanor but she couldn't contain the giggles that were building up deep down. As they begin to whisk the ingredients together, Ruby starts to ponder on a few things.

She was excited beyond belief about spending her birthday with her uncles - it was a rare sight when both of them could attend. But… there were small things that were nagging at Ruby and refusing to let go. Their sudden quietness immediately catches her uncle's attention, who then turns to face her.

“Something on your mind?” Clover asks in a gentle tone - completely surprising Ruby who lets out a tiny yelp. It didn't take her long to recover from that sudden question as Ruby looks down at the mix and sighs.

“I'm happy to be here with both you and uncle Qrow but… It's my first birthday without Yang.” Ruby speaks very quietly as she slows to a halt and their hair falls onto her face - hiding her true expression. Clover watches with soft eyes as he lowers himself down to her level.

"I know how hard it must be with Yang being on that school trip and your dad being busy," Clover starts in a gentle tone while pushing Ruby's fringe back once more, "but trust me when I say you're going to have a great birthday with the most awesome surprise."  He gives her a big smile as the words seem to do the job of cheering her up. Ruby's expression lights back up and they wipe their eyes

"Thank you Uncle Clover," she says with a lopsided smile. Clover laughs as he kisses her forehead and stands back up - the pair returning to their tasks.

"So uncle Clover - a birthday surprise huh?" She asks with a sly smile.

Clover glances down for a moment before chuckling to himself, "You got that right." He doesn’t elaborate further, simply gesturing for her to stop the whisking for a moment. As he adds a small tablespoon of vanilla extract, while Ruby's curiosity reaches an all time high.

"I wonder what it could be - maybe a mega awesome present-"

Clover laughs, "Ruby I know you have long figured out I'm the weak link when it comes to surprises," he says with a side glance down towards the kid.

Ruby giggles. "Yeah I found out when you accidentally told Yang that dad was considering the motorcycle license-"

Clover hushes them with a small laugh, "Which your dad never ever lets me live down."

"But I promised your uncle I wouldn't breathe a word of it - so will a simple reassurance that you will love it suffice?" Clover asks.

Despite the desire to know brewing deep down within Ruby - she understood this was something super important to keep a secret. With a sigh, she finishes her whisking and nods in agreement. Clover pats her on the head

"Not much longer now," he says while taking the bowl away.

"Now remember - 15 minutes in the oven or you'll burn them!" Ruby calls as Clover goes to fill the pre-prepared cupcake pan with the batter.

Clover scoffs,"You're talking to the 'Best Baker in all of Remnant' here Ruby. I ain't about to let these cupcakes burn on my watch!"

After the batch has been fully cooked and decorated, Clover's scroll finally dings on the counter loudly. Ruby's head perks up.

"Is that Qrow telling us everything is ready?!" They ask while frantically patting the table.

Clover laughs, "Let's see." He walks over and picks the device up. After being silent for a few seconds, the man looks back up and smiles. "We have to head out back."

Ruby follows behind her uncle enthusiastically - as he leads them down the hallway.

Excitement was thrumming all throughout Ruby's body as they got closer and closer to their destination. About a dozen different scenarios were rattling around in their head at once - but they just couldn't come to a solid conclusion. Was it a new cape? Maybe they're getting a super cool motorcycle too?! Clover stops before the backdoor and turns to Ruby.

"Close your eyes buddy," he tells her with a big smile. Ruby did exactly as she was told and soon after did they feel Clover gently take their arm and begin to lead her forward.

Ruby could feel the cool breeze of the outside world as they were continued to be led by her uncle - the shuffling of feet could be heard too. After a few seconds, Clover orders her to stop and she does just that.

"Can I open my eyes now?!" They exclaim, growing more impatient by the second.

Clover laughs, "You can now."Ruby's eyes flutter open. After taking a moment to adjust to the sudden sunlight - Ruby focuses her gaze right ahead of her, letting out a huge gasp at the sight before their eyes.

"Happy birthday Ruby!"

Different voices yell in unison, coming noth only from her Uncle Qrow, but also from her dad and sister, standing next to Qrow with huge matching grins. Ruby begins to bounce on the spot before jetting across the grassy garden.

"Oh my gosh!" They yell, tackling all their family in one swift motion, everyone being knocked to the ground by the force of it. Everyone laughs wildly as Yang and Tai embrace Ruby.

"You said you guys couldn't make it!" They say with tears in her eyes and Yang swiftly wipes them away, a soft smile on her face.

"You didn't think I'd miss your big birthday bash, did ya sib?"

Tai nods, "I decided to get off work early and Yang finished up her Huntsfolk Observation Trip quicker than expected." The trio finally stand back up and Tai his head tilts in Qrow's direction before continuing.

"Qrow managed to pull some strings to make sure we were all here," he says with a smirk.

Yang scoffs, "I had to make sure these old timers were doing your birthday right." She gives both Tai and Qrow a smug grin. Tai playfully jabs his daughter in the ribs and Yang snorts in response.

Ruby's face lit up - not sure how to react. Tai's face softens for a moment as he turns back around to pick up an item he dropped when they fell, picking up a small book with a pink bow neatly placed on top of it.

"I wanted you to have this. We all spent the last week getting all the pictures printed and organized." He explains in a quiet tone while placing the book into Ruby's hands.

Ruby stares at it, seeing the words 'Ruby's Birthday' printed on the top stirred emotions deep down. Everyone crowds around them with supportive looks which encourages Ruby to open the book, letting the pages fall open somewhere around the halfway point.

As Ruby looks down at the page, she could see Yang holding their baby self with the help of Tai, her older sister’s eyes wide with wonder.

"Yang insisted that she held you the moment she laid eyes on you," Qrow chuckles fondly.

Yang gives a quick snicker in response, "I just knew how awesome my baby sibling was the moment I saw them," she says while ruffling Ruby's hair and the other pushes her off with a smile.

"What is it with all this hair ruffling today?!" Ruby asks with giggles sprinkled in between words.

As they flip backwards to the previous page, they see two pages of Qrow and Clover holding them as a baby as well.

"Clover of course, had to make a luck pun," Qrow says with a smirk in his husband's direction and the other stuck his tongue out playfully.

"So nothing much has changed between now and then?" Ruby points out which causes everyone else to laugh alongside them. Ruby turns the page further back towards the front of the book, seeing a picture of Tai.

"I remember when your mother went into labour - I quickly ran back into our room to specifically get that shirt," Tai explains with a short laugh, pointing at the red ‘#1 Dad’ shirt in the picture.

Clover scoffs, "You were planning that gag ever since Summer became pregnant too."

Tai waves him off “I’m the embarrassing father - I have an image to maintain!’’ He laughs and Ruby snorts in response  - looking up at her dad with happy eyes. After a moment, Ruby’s attention once again falls back to the book before them - as they flip to the first page of the book and Ruby finds herself growing silent.

Tai looks down at them with sad eyes as he places his hand on her shoulder "She wasn't scared at all when she was pregnant with you - I was more frightened than her." That comment has Ruby look up to her dad with a sad smile as she let him continue.

"She did everything in her power to make sure you were brought into the world safely and surrounded by love," he explains as everyone around them watched on in a wistful way "Your mom loved you so much Ruby. Every moment she spent with you was everything she could've hoped for."

That was what brought on the tears - as Yang and Ruby both found themselves starting to cry. Everyone  then closed in for a group hug. Nobody moved for a few moments, just choosing to instead enjoy each other's presence in total serenity.

"One last thing," Yang says with a smile as she pulls back and taking out a small camera. "Every year me and Ruby take a picture together for their birthday," she explains as she gestures for everyone to squeeze together "And this is the first time we've all been together in a long long time."

Yang places the camera on the nearby picnic table and sets a timer "Everyone says cheese!" She cries out while rushing over just in time as everyone screams out that word excitedly. The camera clicks with a flash and everyone starts to giggle. Qrow gives Ruby a quick pat on the head.

"Now let's dig into some birthday cake, shall we?" He suggests and Ruby gasps loudly.

"Birthday person gets the first slice!" She exclaims as she zips over in a burst of petals.

~~~

“That’s such a sweet story Ruby,’’ Pyrrha says with a warm smile on her face and placing her hands on top of heart in a fond manner. “Would you like to take a picture with all of us?’’

That question easily catches Ruby’s attention as her eyes go wide, “Oh my gosh yes! I’d love nothing more,’’ they say while jumping on the spot and clasping her hands together. “It’ll show off our awesome costumes too. I dont have one good birthday photo in Halloween costumes, and I’ve almost always had a Halloween birthday.’’

Weiss raises an eyebrow “Ruby, you were born on Halloween, every year is a Halloween birthday." Yang hushes Weiss with a playful push.

“You can survive one night without making a sassy remark Ice Queen,’’ she teases which obviously irritates the other but after a moment, Weiss takes in a deep breath and seemingly composes herself.

“Does anyone have a camera then?’’ Weiss asks.

Everyone looks around at each other before shrugging and Nora groans, “Where’s Velvet when ya need her.” . Blake’s head perks up as she takes out her scroll and gestures to it.

“It’s not as traditional, but I think your scroll could work.’’ She says with a small smile.

Yang’s face lights up “Once again - Blake is here with the big brain,’’ she says with a wink which in turn causes Blake’s cheeks to flush red and she looks down at the floor with a tiny smile. Ruby takes out her device and beams brightly.

"Everybody squeeze in - I’m pretty short,’’ she says loudly and everyone begins to crowd in around them, all trying their best to get in level with the camera. With a bit of effort, Ruby manages to hold the scroll as high she possibly could and she gives a big smile.

“Everyone say cheese!’’ She yells and everyone screams that word at the same time.

A flash on the scroll lights up the room before Ruby lowers it down - inspecting the picture that was taken. As they look at the photo, tears begin to well up in their eyes and she sniffles lightly.

Yang glances down with a fond look on her face and pats Ruby lightly on the head, “All good Rubes?’’ Ruby wipes her eyes and nods frantically.

“It’s everything I could’ve hoped for.’’

September 14th 2011,

Shit, My pen ran out of ink. Sorry, future self. 

As I was saying, George, Harry, Dean, Henry, Jordan and I were all in the taxi on the way to this party… Harry’s party whoever he is, When George had started to hold onto my balled up fist, His warm hand had managed to coax my fist out of its ball and twine our fingers together. 

And that was the very moment that Jordan, the bloody fuck head decided to turn around in his seat and eye up George and I’s hands, a twisted vile smirk coming to his lips.  

“Thought you two were just friends.” He smirked, looking back at Harry and Henry. “Now I understand why MacKay isn’t picking up tonight? He’s already got himself a bird.” 

“Are you always such a dick?” The words tumbled out of my mouth before I could pull them back in. As the words digested in everyone's minds an awkward silence fell in the car. Tension looming underneath ready to crack at any second.  

“Excuse me?” Now or never Y/N… 

“You heard me.” I cleared my throat a little and hoped George couldn’t tell how my grip on his hand tightened. “Are you always such a dick? So what if George and I are holding hands, have you never had a friend whose hand you could hold?” I paused waiting for him to reply, when he opened his mouth I powered on. “God, I feel sorry for you… ” Jordan opened his mouth again to rebuttal my accusation. “If you must know, George was reassuring me, I don’t want to be at this bloody party tonight, but here I am going because these guys know that you are going to need all the help you can get to even have a girl give you a double-take.” It was a part lie, he was pretty attractive until he opened his mouth.  “So next time you feel like shit-stirring, make sure the person you’re pissing off isn’t the same person whose helping you ‘get a bird.’.” I fumed.

“Now I’ve seen everything.” The taxi driver let out a little chuckle. 

“That’s my Y/N.” Dean whooped from the back seat reaching forward to grasp my shoulders. “Atta girl.” 

“Learned yer lesson yet mate?” Henry chuckled shaking his head. “Little lass isn’t here to take your shite.” 

The rest of the ride was silent. Jordan fumed silently in the front seat after his dressing down, Dean would randomly chuckle in the back seat and try to cover it with a cough, and George and I still held hands up until the moment I was jumping out of the taxi. 

“Thanks for the ride.” I waved to the driver, slipping out of the seat. 

“Thanks for the show.” He called back, driving off once I’d shut the door. I spun around facing the group I’d arrived with. 

“Ready?” I tried to plaster a smile on my face as I looked towards the large house. People were flowing out from inside into the front yard. I could already smell the weed and my mind was thrown back to Freddie and how he was always lighting up a joint at every one of the parties I’d gone to in school. 

“C’mon.” George grabbed my hand again and pulled me behind him into the house. The place was packed, even more than any of the parties I had ever been too. 

“So I just fucked her right there in the stairwell and let me tell you bro, was nuts. Hopping around on my dick like it was a pogo stick.” I spared a look at the blonde boy talking to a group of about three other guys right by the front door. 

“This party seems super promising.” I called to the group over the pounding music, If I wasn’t mistaken it was ‘Tipsy’ playing, and if I looked to the ‘dance floor’ there would be a lot of girls dropping to the floor. George looked over his shoulder and laughed shaking his head. He used his grip on his arm to pull me into him, his arm wrapping around my shoulder. Our joined hands resting just above my boob. My eyes zeroed in on it and how close he was to actually copping a feel. 

Calm down horn dog, he’s not touching you…

“I’m with you all night babe.” He lent down and called into my ear. I couldn’t do much more than nod my head and try to take deep breaths as my heart fluttered out of my chest once again.  I tried to take deep breaths as we worked our way through the crowd, the air thick with the smell of weed, spilled alcohol, and sex. I’m just guessing this is what sex smelled like at least. 

“Plans working,” Dean smirked. I looked back at him, noticing the girls around us giving the five boys in my company, the once over before quickly looking away then back for a double-take. 

“God Dean you’re such a good guy.” I called loudly through the crowd as Dean stopped a drink being spilt on my dress. I gave him a quick wink, my hand gripping tighter onto George’s hands. “Any girl would be lucky to have you.” I looked at a girl whose head perked up at my words. “I can’t believe you’re still single.” 

“You’re my number one girl.” He chuckled shaking his head. “But I do think it’s time for me to find a drink.” He smiled slipping away from us. 

“I’ll come, I need to piss.” Jordan broke off leaving just the four of us to face the madness alone. 

“Drink?” I nodded my head at Henry. “Y/N looks like she needs one.”

“Try two,” I called back tucking myself into George more as a guy passed by us eyes focused purely on my cleavage. “Maybe three.” Henry took off shaking his head in laughter, stopping every now and then to greet this person or that person. “He’s popular.” I whispered above the music to Harry who nodded his head. We walked into the slightly emptier, but still overcrowded. 

“Never drink the punch,” Henry called over his shoulder. “That’s where everyone puts their dregs of drink they don’t want, it’s never safe.” 

“Don’t touch the punch.” I repeated. “Got it.” George walked us towards the lest populated corner of the kitchen. 

“Sit up here Y/N.” His hand left mine for the first time we entered the house, only to grab me by the waist and lift me up onto the kitchen counter. My legs swung off the side as I pushed the skirt of my dress down to cover my legs. “Comfortable?” I nodded my head. 

“Thanks.” George smiled and jumped up beside me, arm wrapping around my shoulders again. I felt my cheeks flush. 

“You okay Y/N?” I looked up to Harry and Henry were now standing in front of us, four bottles expertly held between his fingers, Henry a mirror image. “You look a little warm.” 

“Maybe you should take your jacket off.” George pulled the leather off a little revealing more of my chest and shoulder. 

“Yeah, maybe.” I pulled the jacket off sitting it beside me. “What are those?” Harry held two of the drinks out to me. I grabbed onto both of them as Henry passed two off to George. “Cider?”

“It’s Strawberry and lime?” He studied the bottle himself. “Sugar get’s your drunker quicker.” He shrugged his shoulder. “Or so Julie was telling me?”

“Whose Julie then?” George smirked. 

“The girl who recommended the cider mate.” Harry chuckled turning he looked over his shoulder, the three of us looked as well finding where he was looking, a pretty redhead was standing at the other end of the kitchen watching us. 

“She’s fit,” Henry concluded. I tuned out their conversation pulling the bottle to my lips, head tips back and a rush of bubbly cider filled my mouth. It was delicious. I could see how people got drunk on this easily. “How is it?” It tasted like lolly water. 

If you keep drinking Y/N maybe you’ll forget how pathetic you are falling for a guy who is so clearly out of your god damn league and you don’t even believe in leagues. 

“Y/N?” 

“Huh?”

“It must be good then.” George cackled, his body shaking mine as his arm pulled me tighter against him. “If it made Y/N stay quiet for more than five minutes.”

Don’t enjoy this too much Y/N, he’s just making appearances for his next party. He’ll probably tell girls your his sister…  It’s just to show girls they’re nice guys. 

“There you guys are.” Jordan and Dean reappeared at the entrance to the kitchen. They had two girls with them. “C’mon they’re starting the games.” 

“Oh, joy, party games,” I mumbled as I slipped off the kitchen counter grabbing my jacket. Just as a girl came up to us, she ran a finger through her hair, pushing it off her shoulder. 

“George? Are you coming?” Henry stopped by the counter. 

“I’ll catch up.” He smirked, not taking his eyes off the girl.

“April,” She giggled furiously. 

“I’m George.”

He doesn’t like you Y/N, you have to be okay with that. 

“C’mon Y/N.” Harry grabbed my hand this time pulling me behind him into the living room. A group of people were crowded around the wooden table, I could hear the spinning of a bottle on the hardtop surface. 

“We’re going to change things up this time, it’s no longer just spin the bottle, it’s spin the bottle ten minutes in heaven.” A loud cheer went up through the group as Harry stood us in front of the table. He stood behind me, protectively keeping people from bumping into me as they got rowdier. “Now, who’s next?” He looked around before his eyes stopped on me. “You,” He pushed the bottle across the table to me. I could feel my face flush over as I momentarily looked back at Harry. I reached out and grabbed the old beer bottle, sparing a glance at the people around the table. “You have to spin it, sweetheart.” The guy called again. 

“No shit,” I called back before reaching across to the middle of the table. Not only was my cleavage exposed, but I was pretty sure my ass was pressing right against Harry’s crutch. I spun the bottle quickly standing back upright, Harry’s left hand fell onto my hip. 

The bottle spun ten times in total before it stopped. It stopped between the guy who was standing beside us, smelling suspiciously of weed, or Harry. 

“It’s on me,” Harry called arm wrapping around my waist. “Closet” 

“Upstairs. Use a bedroom.” The boy smirked. People whooped as we walked away from the table. Harry leading me up the stairs by the hand. I turned to look back at the crowd as we ascended and through the small doorway into the kitchen I saw George with the girl he’d left me for. Except now they weren’t just talking. His tongue was down her throat. 

Just like all the other guys. 

“Come on.” Harry tugged me gently pulling me up the final part of the stairs. My mind was a blur as he pulled us into another room, the door shutting behind him, blocking out the noise of the party into a dim roar.

What had George done to me? 

He’s like my drug, whenever I get his attention I get really happy for a while. But when I don’t it’s like the world is falling apart and I don’t know what to do anymore. 

“You’ve got feelings for him don’t you?” I didn’t have to look at Harry to know he was judging me. 

“That obvious?” I walked over to the bed and sat down. I wonder how many people have had sex on this bed tonight?

“I’ve seen the look before.” 

“God, I’m pathetic.” 

“Why because you have feelings for someone?”

“No, because I have feelings for someone so out of my league.” I lent my elbows on my knees. “I don’t look like the girls he goes for Harry. They’re all skinny, they’re all blonde… I’m neither of those things.” You’re fat with brown hair Y/N. The complete opposite of what he goes for. 

“You’re right.” My head snapped up to Harry. 

“I’m what?”

“You’re right.” He walked over to me and sat beside me on the bed. “You’re nothing like those girls.” Even Harry can see how wrong I was for George. “You’re smart, you’re funny, and unlike them Y/N you’re beautiful without even trying.”

“I thought I told you to stop flirting with me, Harry.”

“This isn’t flirting.” He grabbed onto my hand. “This is me, telling you that you are worth more than any of those girls, and MacKay is an idiot if he doesn’t see it… Who knows, maybe one day he might but why are you wasting your time waiting around for a maybe?” 

“I don’t know how not too.” I opened my mouth waiting for the reason to tumble out but instead, all I could do was stutter. 

“Try.”

“He was there for me when I needed him, Harry… He was the only one there for me.” 

“Do you really have feelings for him?” 

“I think so.” 

“You have to tell him.” Harry stood up and tried to pull me up. 

“No Harry I can’t.” I pulled him back, this started a game of tug of war, my arm being the rope. “Harry stop it.”

“Don’t be a baby Y/N.” He pulled me, My butt left the bed, but I dug my feet in and managed to counteract his pull, causing both of us to fall back onto the bed. Harry fell half on top of me. “Y/N.” He shook his head, pushing some of the hair out of my eyes. “If you don’t tell him, you’ll never be able to breathe.” 

“I can’t do that.” I moved my head a little closer to his.  I looked from his eyes down to his lips. The sudden feeling of want washing over me. 

“Y/N, you’ll regret it.” He whispered back, his head also moving closer to mine. 

“I’m not sure I would.” The door swung open breaking us apart. Harry rolled off me and I sat up, making sure my skirt covered everything. 

“Y/N?” I squinted, looking at the figure. “Harry.” They walked closer. 

Holy fuck it was George. 

“I… I gotta go…” I yelled getting up and rushing out of the room. 

“Y/N, come back,” George yelled over the crowd. I pushed my way out through the crowd and down the stairs. I didn’t look back, I couldn’t. I felt the cider bubbling in my stomach threatening to come out. I made it out of the house, across the road and partway down the street before it did. When I was finished being sick I sat in the gutter, hot tears rolling from my eyes. I couldn’t tell you if it was from being sick, or the fact that George saw Harry and me. 

“Y/N.” I wiped the tears from my cheeks on the back of my hand. “Y/N, it’s Henry.” I stood up from the gutter to see him walking down the road, on the other side to me. “Y/N it’s not safe for you out here alone.” 

“I’m fine,” I called back sinking back onto the ground. 

“Harry and George are looking for you,” 

“I just want to go home.” 

“You don’t want to go back to the party?” I shook my head. “Alright,” He sat beside me. 

“What are you doing?”

“My ma would kill me if I left a girl alone.” 

“You don’t have to stay with me, you can go back to the party.”

“It’s fine Y/N. I don’t mind.”

“Aren't their girls you want to pull?” Henry shook his head. 

“No, They’re not really my type?”

“Party girls, aren’t your type?”

“No, girls aren’t my type.” 

“You’re gay?” 

“As gay as you like George.”

"That’s a lot,” I whispered. “Do they know?” 

“George does, Jordan…”

“Don’t blame you.” I giggled despite myself. “I won’t tell anyone if you don't want that, not that there's anything to tell…”

“It’s fine Y/N.” He pulled his jacket off and slipped it around my shoulders. "Harry has your jacket.” I nodded my head. “Wanna tell me what happened?” 

“I nearly kissed Harry, and George saw…” 

“Oh.”

“Yeah.” I buried my head in my hands. “I’m such an idiot.”

“He knows it was for the game… He’s not angry. He’s actually glad it was Harry and no one else…”

“He doesn't hate me?”

“I think it’s physically impossible to hate you Y/N.”

mdzs read diary part IV, the end

It’s inspiring how much self care wwx is gonna finally get now that his husband will go along with whatever he does, so he’s gotta look out for lwj’s well being if not his own. that is emphatically the STUFF

dragging my hands down I face as I read this, after all these chapters of getting up close and personal with ghouls bleeding from every orifice, slaying ancient beasts, rebelling against the entire cultivation world, the two of them are absolutely paralyzed by middle school crush sleepover math

chicken

he actually drew kissy doodles .... he....

IDK I THINK I JUST DOCUMENTED THIS PART CUZ I WAS STILL SCREAMING you cant expect me to have very useful things to say at this point

this is torture you are both so mushy you are so GONE

This part really stood out to me, it’s an attitude I feel like wwx implies with his inner narration a few times but most clearly says here: he’s not one for allowing himself to exaggerate how bad his circumstances are/could be even a little bit - he’s already lived through some extreme low points and found a way to keep going, so he never makes sweeping statements about what he couldn’t live without (Inner JingYi: you’re supposed to say you’d be lost without him here!!!) Instead he seems to accept as a given that being alive doesn’t guarantee him any pleasantness or joy at all, and as a result his feelings toward being in TRUE LOVE are surprisingly pragmatic, but also colored with such gratitude. There are a lot of things in the novel that struck me, like this, as being just a little to the left of familiar tropes/sentiments, and were more touching for it. Whether it be the influence of culture difference as opposed to what I’m used to reading in most western romance stories, or MXTX’s unique outlook, or a combination of both, it was really refreshing and made me pause over it. Not “I can’t imagine living without you” but “I could be living without you, but instead I get to be with you and I think that’s the best thing that could happen.”

ADJFDKFJ THE UST BEING SO STRONG THAT EVEN THE VILLAIN COMMENTS ON IT IN THE MIDDLE OF EXECUTING HIS EVIL PLANS IS ONE OF THOSE THINGS THAT WILL NEVER FAIL TO MAKE ME LAUGH MY ASS OFF. hes like god damn! here I thought I had problems

it was at this moment that I realized we were doing this Now... I’m still recovering. What a scene. I am so glad I saw the most incredible fanart soon afterwards, bc the fact that someone has already drawn a perfect comic of this part means I don’t have to

I love you so much, you are so annoying, you are perfect... I like how he’s been experiencing openly requited love for all of ten minutes but he’s already figured out how to weaponize it to piss people off

doing!!! his!!! job!!!!!

ahh... it’s a really good story. JGY is a great character. One of the most interesting differences for me between drama watching vs. novel reading experience is that without an actor to bat his vulnerable doe eyes at you and smile faintly with his cute dimples, the book does not go much out of its way to try to lull the reader into a false sense of security around him or *endear* him to you the way the show does. But just by seeing events through wei wuxian’s POV, its still enough to evoke pity or understanding towards him. The overall impression is a bit more detached though, there’s less emphasis on the spectacle of how he could manipulate everyone closest to him and more of a general feeling of resigned tragedy that everyones the worst on this bitch of an earth.

I CANNOT DEAL WITH YOU FOR EVEN ONE MORE SECOND!!!!

I clearly paused to take note of less and less parts at the end & the extras due to: a) too excited to reach the end b) too spicy to photograph and c) too sleepy cuz I kept reading in the middle of the night. but I absolutely took the time for Bro We Are Teens appreciation corner:

I’d absolutely read 40 more extra chapters of their monster-of-the-week field trip antics.

god... poor Jin Ling now basically has to deal with divorced parents that talk shit about each other to him whenever he is saying with one of them. except they are both his uncles. just a disasterhood of all uncles from start to finish. AUUUGH wei wuxian and jiang cheng have fucked me up completely, I dream of them reconciling but I also REFUSE to believe it would ever be easy. let me know if theres a fanfic that absolutely tortures you for decades before they hug

HAHAHA oh no this man ain’t making it to immortality thats for damn sure. HE’S JUST GONNA TRY AS HARD AS HE CAN HIS WHOLE LIFE NOT TO LOOK AT HIM BUT THEYRE *MARRIED* SDLKFJSF ohhhh it’s too funny, like... the mundane domestic family drama IN the fantastical swords and sorcery setting is what really ratchets up these things from amusing to fucking hilarious I think

aaaa the end... final random thoughts? No not final, I would like to please keep discussing at length and exhaustively, all the time please - CQL has gotta be one of the best TV adaptations I’ve seen. ANY adaptation of anything would be lucky to be so good!! reading the novel has just made me appreciate it even more.

- I don’t think I can do justice to what I find most fascinating about comparing the two versions briefly, to do that I need to get drunk and ramble at my friends for hours but... the condensed version is something like this. Really all the significant differences between the two versions (besides the ones which can be attributed to censorship and therefore aren’t worth discussing) are a side effect of the structure of how the story is told - there’s barely anything changed arbitrarily. Aside from having a cold opening, the drama sticks to a very linear version of the story, and I think for a TV show or film, that’s probably the best way to do it. We see everything, we get shocked and tricked and betrayed and surprised along with the characters, we feel the biggest impact at the climactic scenes having experienced all the build-up. The novel on the other hand is not only much more non-linear in WHEN we learn bits and pieces of information, but that information is also obfuscated under wei wuxian’s multiple layers of Unreliable Narratoritis, which are as follows: 1) difficulty remembering things because of personality/avoiding painful memories/actual memory loss, 2) No Homo Goggles still on, and 3) a wry sense of humor that makes the reader unsure of how much they can trust his attitude toward things, especially near the beginning. The experience of reading is a puzzle the reader has to mentally piece together through all of the above listed camouflage, and the puzzle itself is a three-sided mystery: One - How Bad of a guy was Wei WuXian really, and how exactly did all the bad stuff in his life go down; Two - wangxian epic pride & prejudice gambits; Three - political murder mystery. (I love stories like this btw... though I fully admit I’m glad I watched first this time bc it might have taken me a long time to tackle otherwise.) Because of this, where the drama wants to pull you in and submerge you in all the most potent emotional parts, the novel in direct contrast deliberately side-steps around these things and asks that you hurt yourself by filling in the blanks. In fact the more intense emotions and painful memories involved, whether it be his relationship with jiang yanli, his DEATH, the darkest days of war times etc, the more the novel evasively withholds details. I actually really like both styles of storytelling but each one is obviously way better suited to its medium. ANYWAY.... THATS BASICALLY WHERE MY BRAINS AT WHILE IM READING GAY SWORD WIZARD BOOKS

- The extras are so saturated with domestic married bliss that it’s a good thing I stopped taking pictures because I’d just take a picture of every page. this is too much for me to take... I did jump the gun a few times and read a few fanfics while I was still mid-read of the book (I tried to hold out but alas I am mortal) and at one point after finishing I was like “wow what fic was it in where lwj says something cute and wwx kisses him in public but they’re in the corner of the restaurant so no one really sees... OH NO WAIT that was actually in there.” and ... and that’s the LEAST OF IT... *stares into the distance* theyre married wow

- I ofc couldn’t help but see a few vague blogs beforehand so honestly I was braced for something like, wildly ooc for the sake of porn to happen in the extras... I definitely appreciate how the incense burner porn interludes could be uhhh a lot for many people and not my personal cup of tea in terms of smut however [here follows the words of a poisonous frog who has dwelt her whole life in the rainforests of BL] the concept is also surprisingly SWEET SDFLKJF like wwx sees lan wangji’s darkest mixed-up violent teenage fantasies and he’s just like aww babe you had a crush on me!! just... good for them

- I swear I’m not gonna rehash every cute married thing they do but wei wuxian grading papers in the tub........................rEALLY GOT ME

- I want to Draw - ok thats enough if I keep going I’ll just write “wei wuxian grading papers in the tub” seven more times probably

“So the black wolf.” On the bed of Hope, Darcy lay on her stomach who was informed about what had happened.

 “One yellow-eyed.” Hope corrected, sitting on a chair in front of his desk.

 “Listen, chick.” Darcy took his lollipop out of his mouth. “We're in British Columbia. Where ... It's quite common for YELLOW-eyed black wolves.” she looked back at the plush behind her.

 “Good. Of course. Buut. It was different. Its eyes... So…”

 “Yellow?... Uuuuh. Teddy!” she took Hope's plush teddy bear.

 “GIRLS!!! DINNER!!!” Hope's father shouted upstairs.

 “Great. Then I'm starving.” Darcy jumped up.

 *

 “Mmmm .... Ooo .... Uuhuhh ....” the sounds came from Darcy as she just stuffed the food” Mr. Anderson a’e you the be’t chef in the wo’ld.

 “Ooo. Thank you for the compliment.” A little Tom blushed. Darcy smiled a big smile, resulting in half of the food in her mouth landing on her lap.

 “Nooo!!!” swallowed the rest quickly.

 “I'll get a towel.” Tom stood up rapid.

 “I do not need it!!” Darcy cried out into the kitchen and grabbed the rest of her lap by hand and slipped into her mouth. Hope was drinking when she was watching the show and she couldn't keep her laughter so the water found her way out of her nose.

 “You can bring me!!” said Hope and put her hand in front of her nose.

 When Hope successfully wiped her nose, Darcy ate the last bite of her clothes. Tom finally sat back. New theme came up.

 “Imagine Mr. Anderson Hope saw the Edward-eyed Jacob.” Darcy said.

 “This is not true.” Hope opposed.

 “Oh. Sure. You said you saw a yellow-eyed wolf. Edward had such a furi yellow eye. And Jackob is the werewolf.”

 “I'm sorry to intervene, but ... What is it? Who is Edward? And Jacob?” Thomas asked.

 “Twilight. Edward is a vampire. Jacob is a werewolf.” Hope helped his father. “I saw a yellow-eyed black wolf after the party. And now with this ....”

 “And nothing's wrong with you !?” the worried father stood up.

 “Nothing. It's just annoying now.”

 “Are you sure you have nothing to do with it? Didn't you bite or scratch it? Don't you feel dizzy? Don't you feel sick? We have been vaccinated against rabies.” she watched her daughter thoroughly.

 “No. It was far from me.” Hope looked at her girlfriend angrily. Who just stared at the living room, whistling.

 “Ok.” he sat back in place with Tom.

 “Tom. Can Darcy stay here?” waited for the answer from his father.

 “No. It is school tomorrow.” he forbidden.

 “But please …” Hope tried the puppy-eye.

 “Please Mr. Anderson.” Darcy joined.

 “No. Your mom wouldn't be happy.”

 “But whoever makes such a good meal can handle a woman in the house.” Darcy muttered.

 “Yes. And then we can see the Twilight.” Hope tried.

 “Aaaa .... Okay.” he left it.

 “This is it!!” the two girls hugged each other.

 “But in an hour, sleep.” he looked at his watch.

 “We have enough time to talk, about why Vampire Diaries are better than Twilight.” Darcy ran up. “Yeah. And hard-stops Teddy!”

 “Girls.” Tom muttered to himself

 *

 “WAKE-UP!!!” she hit Hope with her pillow.

 “Leave me.” she moaned as she was still awake.

 “Good.” Darcy stopped. “You wanted.” She went out into the bathroom with a glass of water, which she drank. Then she refilled.

 “WAKE UP!!!!!!” She poured on Hope.

 “Nooo!!!” the girl jumped up. “You're minger!” she threw her attacker with his pillow and finally lay back.

 “You're confuting your name. You're hopeless.” Darcy clasped her hand and stared at Hope. “Do you want to be late on the first day?” Tactics changed. “It's not a good impression.”

 “Counties.” Hope finally sat up from her bed.  “Now I can change bed linen.”

 “It'll hit her after school.” Darcy tugged at the girl with her arm.

 “But not. It will smell.” Hope protested.

 “Then we'll go into a convenience store and buy a car perfume.” Darcy said, “For sure there is a lazy odor.” she added.

 *

 The high school was huge. If Hope had gone 100% alone, she would have lost her. But fortunately (or not) Darcy was there.

 “That boy's washbasin, the girl, the ceremony, the lockers, the robe, the lockers here, the porter here, the light bulb there, the chemistry room, and the ceremony, here's my house, there's a poster.” she showed EVERYTHING.

 “Darc ... Darcy ... I can read. And I'm not blind.”

 “Yeah. Of course. There's a map there...” she gave the note next to her ear. “Here are the cups, pictures, awards, "Who can we be proud of "... Is that your dad?” She waved “Weird. Whatever. Watch out for "queens" on the horizon.”

 “Who...?” she looked up. Three girls from yesterday's party walked with them.

 “Look at the babes.” said the middle. “Here's the trash coughing.”

 Hope clenched her hands.

 “Say who has to put 2 kilo grams of makeup on her face to look good.” her girlfriend stood beside her. Darcy quickly hugged Hope, then hurried.

 “I hear you ran to them on the party.” Darcy said when they were out of earshot.

 “Yes. Back to the party. You talked a lot last night about Luke. But I learned everything except who he was.” Hope changed quickly.

 “Yeah. He's pure Edward.” Darcy waved.

 “Except his parents.” she continued the conversation. “Yes. Her parents are always traveling. They are almost never in town. I’m not overwhelmed by what is important to avoid his children.”

 “Children?” quoted Hope.

 “Yeah. Luken has a sister. Approximately 5 years younger than her. But nobody saw him on Luke and his old friends. Only He said.” she brought Hope into one of the halls.

 “And his buddy?” she cursed.

 “Liam? He's his best friend. They continue to hang together. It's like siamese twins.” she looked into the room. “Well, here. I'll introduce Hope Ann Anderson to this year's stump.”

 “Thanks.” she was seated.

 “I have no beautiful princess.” she leaned, and then she took her seat.

 *

 “Bye!” Hope to say goodbye her girlfriend after school.

 “Yes.” Darcy motioned back.

 Hope just giggles, then got into her car. She looked around and saw Luke. The boy waved her. But Hope pretended not to notice. She was still angry about the evening thing.

 When she got home she saw her father not in the house. She put down her schoolbag. Coming down she greeted Darcy on messenger. In response, she got a grinning cack. She smiled and went to the kitchen. She made Popcorn.

 As she looked out the window. The snow melted. The house garden wasn't big. The window looked at the terrace. Hope imagined she, Thomas, her mother and a very cute puppy playing in the garden. From her dream, the beep sounded. Hope poured the popcorn chew into a bowl.

 She opened the camera on her phone and launched the Midnight Sun on the TV. She took it and sent it to Darcy. Darcy sent three grave emojis and wrote, "I hate you". Hope knew Darcy loved that movie. Every time she watched at her, she cried herself.

 “I CAME HOME!!” Tom opened at half past six.

 “HELLO!!” She greeted him as she wrote the last word in her homework.

 Hope went down to greet his father.

 “Imagine having called the Diaz family. They're coming in two weeks.” he gave the news to him daughter.

 “Who?” Hope looked at Tom.

 “The Diaz family. My colleague. You have a 12 year old daughter. And a 20 year old boys. But he's in New York.” Tom explained.

 “I see.”

 “I thought you didn't know a little bit of getting acquainted. You know. Friends. And everything.”

 “I have a friend.” Hope looked puzzled her father. “Darcy. Are you forgot?”

 “No no. Of course not. Just tell you to get more.”

 “I am 17 years old. That girl is 12. You don't feel the difference?”

 “And? One of my buddies has 8 years of difference. Still, we understand each other.”

 “Of course. Because you're a guy.” Hope argued.

 “I don't understand the change.” Tom wondered.

 “We talk in a variety of ways.” Hope explained.

 “Yeah. About Twilight. True?”

 “That's Darcy. He's another topic.”

 “Why? Isn't she a woman?” Tom protested.

 “Not really. It is between the two.”

 They both laughed. Then Hope changed the subject. “Can we be a dog?”

 “What? No.” gave his unanimous answer to her father.

 “But why?” Hope didn't give up easily.

 “Just because.” her father began to wash.

 “This is not an answer.” Hope wrapped her arms around.

 “Complex. Feed, and soak. And deal with it.”

 “Yeah. Just like a baby.”

 “The baby is different.”

 “Oh really. He must be sniffed.” she got to her head.

 “Hope. No, and that's final. Maybe if he hadn't slept here yesterday, Darcy would have said yes.”

 “I'm replacing Darcy with a dog.” the girl gave up the debate. “Luckily, I didn't ask for the tattoo.” she rolled her eyes.

 “What!?” the plate came out of Tom's hand.

 “Nothing.” she ran up.

Twenty-Four (Exo Fanfic) Chapter 3- First Day Of School

**CHAPTER 3**

Sitting at a table where you don’t engage with the conversation is really boring. I was bored of listening to Juro and my mom’s conversation. I was just glad that they didn’t hear my phone go off. I brought my phone out and looked at it.

Unknown : Hey Beautiful 😉😙

Me: Who’s this?

Unknown : Awww 😔 you couldn’t haven’t forgotten me just yet… have you 😢😢😢

I couldn’t help but give a small giggle. As I text back.

Me: How can I forget if I don’t know you. 😁

Unknown : 😧😧😧 its Kai

Me: I think you have the wrong number.😀

Flirty Kai: Really?? This isn’t EunJi? 🤔🤔🤔

Me: Nope, I never heard of her before. 😁😁

Flirty Kai: So I let her sit on my lap for nothing 😔😔😔

Me: 😂😂😂 What do you mean for nothing? Are you a playboy?

Playboy Kai: What if I am would you date me? 😉

Me: I, EunJi would never date a playboy like you. 😑

Playboy Kai: Why you play me like that Beautiful? I thought we were cool like that.

Me: Since when are we cool?

Playboy Kai: Since we first meet. Why else would I let you sit on my lap. Its not everyday I let a beautiful girl sit on my lap. 😉

Playboy Kai: What you doing Beautiful?

Me: Eating dinner and being bored. You?

Playboy Kai: You know…I can find ways to keep you entertained 😘 and I am hanging out with the guys. You excited about first day of school tomorrow?“

"EunJi? EunJi, I asked you a question.” I heard my mom say my name. I guess I was to observed in messaging that I didn’t hear what my mom asked.

“Huh?” I asked her to repeat what she asked. “I asked if you wanted Juro or I to drop you off at school tomorrow?” My mom asked.

“Ughh… Can you take me Mom?” She nod to give me an answer.

“I can, by the way you know cell phone are not allowed at dinner. But I’ll let it pass this time.” She said. I nod and asked to excused myself from the table as I headed to my room.

When I looked at my phone again, I saw a bunch of messages all from Kai.

Playboy Kai: So are you excited?

Playboy Kai: EunJi?

Playboy Kai: EunJi are you there?

Playboy Kai: Are you okay? Do I need to beat someone up?

Playboy Kai: Did you fall of the earth?

Playboy Kai: Or did you go back to heaven. 🤔🤔

Playboy Kai: Don’t go back to heaven Angel 😣😣😣 I need you here.

Obsessive Playboy Kai: Beautiful? 😢

Obsessive Playboy Kai: Angel? 😢😢

Obsessive Playboy Kai: Love? 😢😢😢

Obsessive Playboy Kai: Babe? 😢😢😢😢

I couldn’t help but roll my eyes at him and chuckled at his childish behavior.

Me: Sorry I was talking to my mom. And to answer your question…No Im not excited to be starting school tomorrow.

Obsessive Playboy Kai: Wwwwwaaaaeeee? IM GOING TO BE THERE!!! YOUR NOT EXCITED TO SEE ME?!?!?! 😡😡😡

Me: That’s why I’m not excited because your going to be there.

Angry Obsessive Playboy Kai: 😠😠😠😠 Why so mean EunJi-ahhh? 😟😟😟😢😢😢

I couldn’t hold my laughter as I shovd the pillow into my face. This boy was too much to deal with and I couldn’t.

Me: Idk…

Pouty Playboy: *sniff sniff* you hurt my feelings 😢😢😭😭😭

Me:😂😂😂😂 Sure I did?

Pouty Playboy: You did! Wahhh!! 😭😭 You don’t love me.

Me: Your absolutely right, I don’t love you.

Pouty Playboy: What can I do to make you love me?

Me: Nothing.

Flirty Playboy: Fine but I’m sure I make you fall for me like I did for you 😉 well Beautiful, I gotta go the hyungs are about to have a fight with each other. Good night, sweet dreams. 😚😚

Me: Night

I placed my phone on my night stand as I got up from the bed to put on pajamas on. I bushed my teeth, washed my face and put my hair in a pony tail so it wouldn’t get tangled up in my sleep. I yelled goodnight to Juro and my mom and placed myself back on my bed.

I knew I wasn'tgoing to get much sleep since I was nervous about tomorrow but I managed to fall asleep.

*********

“Bye Mom.” I said as I closed the car door. I was in front of the school. I put my book strap on and headed to my class. As I made it to the school entrance, someone covered my eyes.

“Guess who?” They whispered into my ear. I knew who it was but I decided to play dumb. “The boogie man?”

“Guess again?”

“Hmm I’m not sure who you are then.” I told him. He removed his hands from my eyes and gave me a pouty lip as he stepped to the side for me to see him. His hair was wet from a shower and his uniform seemed to be put on in a rush.

“Oh it’s you.” I flat out gave him a straight face. “Yahh!!! What do you mean "Oh it’s you.” you know I’m the best part of your life now. Anyways what’s your class?“

"B-3.” I told him as a started my way but he grabbed my elbow. “Hey! What do you think your doing?” He asked.

I rolled my eyes. “Im going to my class, duh.” Making my voice drip with sarcasm.

“Your sarcasm isn’t appreciated here and your not going to our class without me.” He said taking ahold of my hand as he dragged me up the stairs and to the classroom.

By the time we got there, the teacher was already in and taking attendance. “Mr. Kim how many times do I have to tell you that your tardiness is not tolerated in my classroom.” A middle age lady with glasses scrowled at Kai.

“I have a good reason to be late. I brought in our new student.” He said stepping out from me. I was hiding behind him when we had entered the classroom because I didn’t want to be seen.

The lady huffed. As she took a look at me. “My name is Mrs. Lee and I’ll be your teacher for math. Please introduce yourself….” she trailed off trying to see my name on the paper.

“EunJi. Kim EunJi” I introduced myself to her and the class. She nod and gestered me to sit down. The only seat that was empty was the seat next to Kai. I sighed of enjoyment that I had to sit with the player.

********

As classes and lunch went by, I was losing patience with Kai. He has done nothing but flirt and talked my ear off. We were in our last class which was Home Economics. And yes Kai is sitting next to me again.

“Good Afternoon class we are getting ready to start our formative grade next week. I expect everyone to do well in their partnership.” Everyone started to get excited as they figure out who was going to be their partner. “As I was saying!!!!” She yelled over the students. “Your partner will be the person you are sitting next to you. Your grade will detect on how well you are with this three week project. I also heard we have a new student in he class. EunJi?”

She called out my name as I raised my hand and nod to know who she was speaking too. “Welcome to Home Ec. Im Mrs. Jung and if you have any questions, you can ask me, Kai or anyone in the class.” She said as I nod to understand. And with that she handed out papers of our assignment for the next three weeks.

When some of the students read the sheet, they groaned because our project was taking care of a simulator doll.

We listened to the teacher as she went through the steps of how to take care of a baby. And telling us what to do and how to work our time sheet diary. And that the parents, meaning us will need to bring the doll with us to school and during class. I was glad that we weren’t starting today as she told us to get ready for Monday see how it was Friday and the weekend was tomorrow. She also advised us to have sleep overs at each other house.

I so not wanted Kai to sleep over. But it being a important grade, I guess I could suck it up for three weeks.

When the bell ringed, I sprinted out my seat as I was trying my best to get away from Kai. But when I got to the front doors of the school, I saw him standing there with a smirk on his face.

“Angel, you thought you could leave me tsk tsk. No can do.” He said throwing a arm over my shoulders. “Are you not sick of me yet?” I grumbled under my breathe. “No!!!” He smirked as we waited for his friends to meet us.

“Hyung!!!! Leave Nana alone!!!” Sehun whinned as he was having trouble getting Baekhyun off of Nana again for the fourth time.

“But I haven’t had my after school hug from her Sehun-ah!!” He pouted as Nana easily squearmed out of Baekhyun grip and ran too me, taking my hand as Kai took mine and we ran from the others.

We ended up in a ice cream parlor. Were I got cookie dough ice cream, Kai and Nana got their favorite. We were half way in our ice cream when the rest of the group came in.

“Nana!!! Why did you leave me with these idiots!!!” Baekhyun cried as he took some of Nana’s ice cream.

“Idiot? Who you calling an idiot, you cowlicker” sehun taking the ice cream out of Baekhyun hand and ate some. As we all watch them go back and forth of calling each other name.

*********

“I’m Home!!!!!” Yelling from the front door. I slipped off my shoes and made my way to my room when I saw seven guys in my living room, playing video games.

“Who are you?” I asked.

“Question is who are you?” One of them asked. I clicked my tongue. “I asked first.” Giving the boy a death glare.

“And I asked second. So you are?” I was getting aggravated by this boy. He seemed to glare at me back so I crossed my arms across my chest and put all of my weight on one leg.

The others seemed uncomfortable as the orange hair boy and I glared at each other in silence.

“Oh!! Ji your home and I see you meet Taehyung, my son.” Juro came in with his button up shirt rolled up on the sleeves and a few buttons unbuttoned.

“Son!!!” I didn’t know that Juro had a son.

“Yes he’s a year younger then you.” He answered. I turned to the orange hair boy that made him look like he came out of a webtoon or a anime. I looked at the others as they shift in their seats.

“I didn’t know you had a son. Does mom know?” I asked Juro as Juro laughed and came to ruffle our hair.

“Hey!!!” We both yelled as we fixed our hair. “ Tae was living with his mom, and he will living here now since his mom will be living in Japan now. He’s transferring to your school EunJi so take good care of him.” Juro asked me. I looked at the orange hair boy and nod at Juro words.

I was able to excuse myself to my room where I changed into comfortable clothes. I heard a knock on my door as it opened to show my mom.

“Hey baby. How was your first day of school?” She sat down on my made bed. I sat next to her sitting criss cross and apple sauce.

“It was the same as every school day. The teachers were nice. My seatmate is annoying flirt but that’s expecting since I met him and his friend three months ago and yesterday and today. Oh and he and I have to take care of a doll baby so he’s probably gonna ask if he can spend the night.

She smiled. "Oh really? What’s his name? How did you guys meet?” She asked getting comfortable on my bed.

I sighed. “Remember when I came home because YoungBin broke up with me. Well that was the same day I met Kai and his friends Xiumin, Suho, Lay, Baekhyun, Chen, Chanyeol, D.O, and Sehun the maknae who has a twin sister name Nana and I met her yesterday. She was my tour guide.”

“So his name is Kai huh” she nudge me as she smiled. “Is he handsome?”

I laughed and nod. “Yeah. I’m not telling you how he looks because I’m sure he will be here sometime soon.” My mom pouted.

“What don’t look at me like that!!” I giggled as she laughed with me.

“Okay, I’ll wait to see this boy and when I do I’ll tell you I approve.” As I nod. “So you met Tae?”

“Yeah, I wasn’t really expecting to have a step brother. When did you know?” I asked my mom. “It was when Juro and I went out on our first date. He knew about you before we dated because he seen you help around the bakery. I was shocked at first but I’ve met Tae before and we clicked. I’m sure you two will get along just fine."she said then kissed my forehead. "Dinner is being made give it thirty minutes, okay.” She said then left me in peace.
