Sweet Little Loaf (A Drabble)

I have no idea what to title this, so... yeah. This. This is a random drabble of 935 words based on a tweet that @folklauerate thought was very Kate and Anthony. In a nutshell, a woman was driving home from the shops and saw someone walking a corgi, came to a stop and went to say hi. Turns out, it was her corgi and her husband. So, I made a drabble out of after writing some random dialogue between Kate and Anthony. Enjoy! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tapping the steering wheel with a hum, Kate’s eyes slid from the empty road to the path closest to her. The warm evening sun had cast a golden hue upon the dark concrete, bereft of the life she had witnessed just a half hour ago.

Then, she saw it: a glimmer of red and white, streaks of late summer sun bouncing off soft fur. A wiggling bottom and a wagging tail, attached to a loaf-shaped body and carried by stumpy little legs. His ears pricked up, eyes bright as the little guy turned his head, tongue lolling and trying to keep up with his owner’s pace.

Gasping, Kate slowed her car until she crawled to a stop, her own eyes wide and shining at the sweet little corgi. She had to say hi, perhaps give the sweetheart some scratches, a little bit of fuss and love because, well, he simply deserved it.

At the very idea Kate’s own fingers began to itch and, opening her car door, stepped out onto the pavement a short walk ahead of the precious loaf.

She felt her smile stretch across her face when the corgi caught sight of her and, with an energetic yip, began pulling on his lead, his tiny paws scrabbling to get to her. Kate nearly melted at the sight, his precious face lighting up at the thought of being adored.

Bending down, Kate laughed when the corgi all but shoved his head into her hand, his paws resting on her knees with eyes shut, enjoying the fuss. Above her, Kate heard the owner groan and even tap his foot. Good God, she hoped the poor baby hadn’t been stuck with a miserable bugger for an owner.

“Babe,” the voice was low, a sigh heavy on his lips. “I thought I told you to stop coming up to strangers who have corgis.”

Looking up, Kate scowled at Anthony, now tugging on Newton’s lead, and narrowed her eyes. Shit.

“Oh, shut up,” she muttered, and with another stroke of Newton’s beautiful fur, she stood to her full height and snatched the lead from Anthony’s grasp. “It’s not like you haven’t done it yourself.”

A low growl fell from Anthony’s lips and, turning on her heel, Kate walked Newton over to her car. Opening the back door, she picked up her – admittedly, quite heavy – dog, and placed him on the seat where he obediently parked his bum and panted up at her excitedly.

“I was chatting you up, Kate,” Anthony hissed from behind her, one arm wrapping around her waist and tugging her into him. “I was not interested in the corgi.” Flattening his other palm onto the window of the car door, Anthony slammed it shut.

Huffing, Kate wriggled in Anthony’s grasp, which only served to make him pull her that much closer.

“Funny, because I distinctly remember you only asking about Newton when you pulled up beside us,” she teased, and lowering her voice to a gruff cadence, continued with a grin. “What was it you said? Oh, yeah, What a beautiful little dog. You take such good care of his fur…”

Anthony groaned, his head dropping onto her shoulder, his arm tightening. Before Kate could finish her impression of their first meeting, she felt her body turn until her back was pressed up against the car, Anthony’s face mere inches away from her own.

His eyes were dark, lips slightly parted while he took her in, his gaze lowering down to her mouth before returning to her eyes again.

“I only asked because you were walking him, you menace,” he murmured, his nose barely brushing against hers. Kate shivered. “You can’t believe that everybody who walks up to a corgi has innocent intentions, sweetheart, nor should you believe all corgi owners won’t think twice about asking you out.”

Sliding her hands over his shirt, Kate hummed. “So, you didn’t have innocent intentions, then?” she asked with a tilt of her head, her arms wrapping around his neck and tugging him closer. Anthony smirked, a low chuckle rumbling from his chest.

“Not even one,” he whispered, his lips impossibly close to hers. Kate’s eyes fluttered closed.

“Poor Newton will be heartbroken,” she sighed softly, her fingers playing with the curls at the nape of Anthony’s neck. “He really thought you liked him.”

“Oh, I do,” Anthony admitted, his nose brushing against her cheek as he inhaled. “I like that he adores you just as much as I do.” His lips ghosted over her cheek and over her jaw. “I like him because he makes you happy.”

He kissed her brow, her chin, the tip of her nose, both of his arms crushing her against him, and Kate sighed contentedly.

“I like that fat corgi because he’s yours, Kate,” Anthony murmured, giving her hip a gentle squeeze. “I like him because he gave me a reason to meet you.” And then he captured her lips with his in a bruising kiss, swallowing any further arguments.

They broke apart moments later when a whistle sounded in the distance. Faces burning brighter than the evening sun, Kate rushed to get in the car and started up the car again, Anthony sliding into the passenger seat beside her.

They started the quiet drive home, Anthony’s large hand resting on her knee. Looking up into the rearview mirror, Kate spied her beloved corgi, now snoozing on the backseat and smiled to herself.

She loved Newton, her perfect little corgi, and she had to thank him, too; without his aid, Kate probably wouldn’t have met the man she now called her husband.

Crossing the Fineline - Chapter 5

“Kate? What’s going on, honey bunny?” Eddie asks her point blank and eye-to-eye.

The sweetness of the question, coming from the only familiar and likely genuine person here, coupled with the new and very raw humiliation of laying herself so bare before someone so dishonest, makes tears prick her eyes.

“Eddie, take me home now,” she pleads. “He- he lied about everything.”

Deeply obsessed with how Anthony Bridgerton will do anything and everything for the vibes, the ambience and to set the mood for his wife

Why did he lift Kate up halfway to the ceiling just to simply set her down on the desk? THE MOOD, THE AMBIENCE, THE VIBES

Why did he scatter the papers after setting her down as opposed to clearing the desk beforehand? THE MOOD, THE AMBIENCE, THE VIBES

Because of course scattered papers are an essential aspect to heir-making on a desk!!!

CHAPTER 10 NOW UP!

Fandom: Bridgerton (Kate/Anthony)

Featured Fic (Modern AU)

Attorney-Client Privilege by caciopepebowl

Rating: E

Summary: Anthony Bridgerton is reeling from a series of personal and professional missteps when his family hires Kate Sharma to serve as General Counsel and Chief Legal Officer of the Bridgerton family office. Anthony views Kate as living proof that his family no longer trusts him or his judgment. Kate thinks Anthony is the most arrogant, unlikeable man she has ever met. When they actually start working together, they both quickly realize that the truth—like their feelings for one another—is far more complicated.

The thing about no war jeytiri is that relationship is a fucking warzone all on its own. The nerf gun battle of 2018 will go down in history as one of history's most brutal battles. The water balloon wars of 2020 contained the most betrayal of any war in recent memory, because Neytiri talked Lo'ak into putting a ballon down the back of Jake's shirt.

Even not modern and on Pandora, Mo'at and Tsu'tey are just trying to lead a normal life with a normal clan and Jake's like "bet I can gather more herbs faster than you, Neytiri." And she's like "Jake, that's so incredibly childish-" *trips him for a head start*

So, @apinchofm — you asked me a long time ago if I’d picked out Kate’s wedding dresses for my Midnights au, and I haven’t stopped looking! 😂 I want to share my top picks, in case you’re still interested!

First, I wanted her more traditionally western gown to be champagne colored, and I didn’t want a lot of frills and fluff. I was using these incredible Simone Ashley looks as inspiration:

And I think my fave is this one — it’s the right color, it’s a bit sexy, and it has a sparkly overlay. So I’m thinking something along these lines?

Second, I had a lot of amazing options for Kate’s wedding lehenga sent to me by @mimix007, and this one felt the most fitting to me:

I love the deep red and gold so much, and it even has some green elements worked in that reminded me of Kate’s bangles.

Anyway, I’m not sure if anyone is interested but I never stopped thinking about how I didn’t really answer the question back then! 😂 😘

And if anyone else has a different idea they’d go with, please feel free to share! I love talking about this sort of thing.

Crossing the Fineline

The Fineline, Tucson's one and only new wave/goth/industrial nightclub, is closing its doors after 17 years in the spring of 1999.

Kate, who's been going there since she moved to town for college ten years ago, is devastated, and showing up with her best friend Eddie on closing night to give it their fondest farewell.

Anthony, whose meticulously planned Saturday night plans with family have just fallen through, is being dragged there by his extremely patient brother Benedict, just to get him out of the house.

[thekatebridgerton]

Imagine modern au where Anthony is just stressed out so to unwind he starts dancing in his office to the entire choreography of ' dancing trough life' because you know, its his office and his siblings aren't home.... Only to turn around and realize that local bane of his existence Kate Sharma ( and her dog) have been standing in the doorway for a while.

Anthony dancing on his desk be like

And meanwhile Kate

KATE BRIDGERTON (née Sharma) | mama + her minis

Every baby is different; each with their own personality. Kate knows this. She's had three of them previously. It’s just that her most recent one is on another level. The youngest Bridgerton is hands down the fussiest of all their children. Content to be held against her amma’s hip at all the times that even Anthony feels a bit jealous. And though she loves having a baby in the household again, Kate can barely catch a break. Luckily, big sister is turning out to be quite the baby charmer. “Charlie, sweetheart? I’ve got to use the loo. Do me a favour and entertain your sister for a few minutes, yeah?” The little girl nods. Got it, mum! And Kate steals away leaving a quick kiss to her daughter’s temple. “My saviour. Thank you, lovey! Be back in a mo’.”
