Look who just woke up- is that MARINA RUY BARBOSA? No, I must have been mistaken, that’s SABINE DUVAL from PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN. I heard she is 27 and stuck here just like everyone else. Even in the 20’s, they still give off a WRAPPED FINGERS FROM NEEDLE POKES, ANXIOUSLY SCRUBBING BLOOD OUT OF CLOTHES, ACTING BEFORE THINKING TO PROTECT WHAT MATTERS MOST impression. They’re known to be quite INNOVATIVE, but have a tendency to be DISOBEDIENT on their bad days.
Gender/Pronouns :
sabine uses the pronouns she/her, and is cis-female. 
How long have they been in Sydney :
sabine has been in sydney for the past 3 years, but in her fake life, she moved to sydney from france when about 5 years ago. 
Which suburb do they live in? 
she currently lives in kings cross, in a small apartment above her shop. 
Personality description (in your own words) : 
sabine is fiercely stubborn, she has always stood her ground no matter who she is going against, whether it be siblings, or friends or even partners that she had in the past. but when it comes to being stubborn, she is also fiercly loyal, it is very hard to earn her trust but when you do earn her trust you are set for your entire life, and she is not afraid to put herself on the line in order to help the people that she cares about. she is also incredibly crafty both when it comes to her own job, and also when it comes to coming up with things on the instant. 
Memories of their real life :
sabine remembers everything that happened in her life. she remembers meeting tomas, and the way that her family with her and her father had seemed complete. she remembers growing up in their own little town just out of paris, but the way she fell complete with excitement to venture into the big city, but the life that they lived had always been on edge with the illness creeping up on the city threatening to destroy them. she remembered when she and her father fell sick, the way that the she felt her whole body was on fire, and the way the coughs raked her body... and then nothing. 
What was their fake life like :
tbd after plotting, looking for fake life siblings who came to sydney with her from paris, also looking for some seamstresses in training for her shop. 
Theme Song:
getaway car // taylor swift , if you go down (i’m going down too) // kelsea ballerini , jaded // miley cyrus , i can see you // taylor swift , summer baby // jonas brothers
Quote:
“the strength of a woman is not measured by the impact that all her hardships in life have had on her. the strength of a woman is measured by the extent of her refusal to allow those hardships to dictate her and who she becomes”

Bragger (M. Barzal)
A/n: This is based of Kelsea Ballerini’s Bragger and a very self-indulgent fic. Enjoy!! 
Warnings: Brief mentions of sex
Word Count: 5.3k (including song lyrics)
Italics are flashbacks
Tumblr media
“So, Yn, tell us all about Mathew. What’s he like?” Candace, your maid of honor, asks.
You look at her puzzled. “What do you mean ‘what’s he like’?”
You were sitting at your bachelorette party; you didn’t want anything too big, so you decided on brunch with some of your friends, bridal party, and the WAGs.
“I mean, tell us all about him. How happy he makes you, how he drives you crazy but in the good way. Just brag about your fiance. Today is about you so whatever you want to share.
You smile just thinking about Mathew. Yeah, you could talk about him for days. His smile. The way his hair curls over his forehead. His arms. Dear Lord, don’t get started on his arms. You were about to start but remembered Liana, Mathew’s sister, was sitting with you as well. You didn’t want to make her uncomfortable. You also didn’t really want to brag about your relationship.
“Liana, are you okay with this? I don’t want you to be uncomfortable,” you say. You and Liana have grown quite close during your relationship with Mathew and especially close after the proposal.
Liana just smiles. “Go ahead, bride-to-be. It is your bachelorette party. You go talk about the man you love.”
“Well, then. What do you want to know?” You say with a smirk on your face.
He's got the look, he's got the touch He's got the eyes that make me crush And he's not one to make a scene But he deserves the spotlight He ain't from 'round this side of town But he fits in to every crowd And he knows how to do my body and my heart right
Mathew Barzal. Where do you even begin? The start? The first time you kissed? The way he walks around your apartment without a shirt on because (a) he refuses to do so and (b) knows it gets you going? The beautiful eyes that make you want to melt the minute you look into them? Just the fact that he knows exactly what to do to make you weak in your knees? The fact that Mathew knows exactly what to do to make the heat rush to your face and make you flustered? The list goes on and on.
“Tell us about something he does that annoys you but you secretly love,” Tessa, your high school best friend, says. She knows exactly what you’re going to say. You have spilled this to her multiple times. However, the fact that she’s asking makes your heart grow warm, best friends forever, right?
You pretend to ruminate over what to say. You, once again, look at Liana for reassurance. You doubt she wants to hear about her brother walking around half-naked. She nods and signals you to continue. You take a deep breath; you never did like talking about yourself. “Um, well, he walks around our apartment without a shirt on all the time. Not even in the mornings after we wake up. He just refuses to ever wear a shirt.”
Some of the girls sigh. Grace, Anders��� wife, and Sydney, Matt’s wife, look at you with understanding. Hockey players really hate wearing shirts and love showing off their chests. Grace and Sydney know exactly what you’re talking about.
“He claims it’s because he knows he can get a rouse out of me, which he can, but it’s also because I don’t think he likes to wear a shirt.”
“Mathew is very proud of the way he looks,” Liana adds and you smile knowing that she knows what Mathew is like. “When he used to come home before dating you, mom had to remind him to put on a shirt.”
You laugh. “I try to tell him to put on a shirt but he always just,” you pause reminiscing the memory. “He’ll just,” you feel the rush of heat to your cheeks as you try to put the words together.
“Even without Mathew here, he’s got you flustered,” Grace says with a warm smile. She loves seeing two young people hopelessly in love.
You shake your head playfully but put on a large smile. “He’ll do this thing with his face and then kiss me in a way that knocks out my breath, and I just forget about him putting on a shirt.”
“He just gets away with not wearing a shirt? He just kisses you and that’s it?” one of your bridesmaids questions. She smirks. “My husband has to do more than just kiss me for me to forget he’s walking around without a shirt.”
“Well, no wonder you’re pregnant,” you playfully retort. She knows you’re joking, and she smiles back at you.
“You’ve got me there, ynn.” The group erupts into laughter.
“Well, then, if we’re on the topic of kissing. I’m not going to ask what happens behind the doors for your own privacy. But, what’s it like kissing Mathew?” Lila, another bridesmaid, asks.
You melt at the thought of kissing Mathew. A wide smile erupts across your face.
“Clearly he kisses tremendously well,” Liana says, and her response shocks you.
You look at her and glare at her playfully.
“I’m just making an observation. Just the thought of kissing my brother puts a giant smile on your face.”
“Yeah, you’re not wrong there. I’m not sure if this is going to make sense but just here me out. When he kisses me, I never doubt he loves me. It doesn’t matter if it’s a small peck, a passionate kiss, or we’re making out. Sorry, Liana. There’s always love, and it’s almost as if it’s overflowing.”
“Oh, to be young and in love,” someone comments and everyone laughs.
“We do this thing where, assuming he’s not on a road trip, we always kiss each other good night, even if we’re angry. Yeah, I know the marriage advice. Don’t go to bed angry. Blah blah. Okay. But still. We’ll be angry and have yet to resolve the fight and just go to bed. We kiss each other goodnight angrily but the love is still there. I don’t doubt it. The way his lips linger on mine, and the gentleness despite being angry is there. I always go to bed knowing that we can sort out whatever problem we are having at the moment.”
“You guys are literally what I strive to have in a relationship,” Candace says. She wiggles her eyebrows as she says the next thing. “Any more kissing stories? Maybe some not so clean?”
You were taking a sip of your mimosa, and you choked on it. The heat immediately rushes to your face, and you know exactly what she wants. Just thinking about Mathew’s lips on anywhere else other than your lips has you turning to putty. You have to put down your glass for fears of dropping it and spilling it. These were nice glasses. You had them made that says ‘I Do Crew’, and you didn’t want to break them. Your reaction has everyone snickering.
“I hate to interject but if you’re going to talk about your sex life, I’m going to have to walk away,” Liana says. She can stomach talking about her brother kissing you but anything more than that was not something she was comfortable with.
“Yeah, I don’t think I’m comfortable talking about that, especially this sober.”
“Well, then, we have to think of something else. Come on ladies, we can figure this out.” Candace says. You really didn’t like talking about yourself. You don’t want to brag because you know that not everyone can have what you have with Mathew.
I don't wanna be a bragger But my man's a heart attacker Like McConaughey and Jagger Hotter than a Saturday night I can't help it that I flaunt him (All the time) I understand why you would want him (I don't mind) And you can keep up all the chatter 'bout my happy ever after 'Cause all that really matters is he's mine
Candace is about to say something but is stopped when you get a phone call. You look at the caller ID and see that it’s Mathew.
“Speaking of the lover,” Candace says, and you glare at her. “Just answer the phone. We’ll use your reactions as a conversation point.”
You pick up the phone and instantly have a giant smile on your face as Mathew says “Hi, baby.” The girls around you hoot and holler at your grin.
“Hey,” you say back to him.
“Wow, it sounds like you’re in a hockey locker room. How’s it going? I just wanted to check on you. I’m about to head out for my event.” Tito is taking Mathew and his friends to go golfing and then a dinner tonight for Mathew’s Bachelor party.
“Yeah, it seems like that sometimes. We’re doing well. We ate already and might get some dessert in a bit.”
“What are you guys talking about?”
“Funny enough, you.”
You can’t see him but you know that there’s a giant smirk on his face. “Oh yeah? What about me are you talking about?”
“Nothing in particular. Just everything I love about you. The way you walk around the apartment without a shirt. The way you kiss.”
“Well, make sure you tell them about that thing I do with my lips that makes you moan my name in bed.” You instantly feel the heat rush to both your face and core remembering exactly what Mathew is talking about.
“We’ve established that I wasn’t going to talk about things like that and also your sister is here, so.”
“Well, I’ll let you go and also Tito is yelling at me to get going. I love you, future-Mrs.-Barzal.”
“I love you, too, future husband.” You hang up the phone with a giant smile on your face and the girls around you all smile. “What?”
Sydney smiles back at you. “The giant smile on your face. Mathew makes you really happy.”
Your smile, if possible, gets wider. “Yeah, he makes me really happy, and I love him more than anything.”
“It’s obvious,” Candace says. “Also, what did he say to tell us that we established we weren’t going to discuss?”
You feel your cheeks warm up again. You ignore Candace’s statement and turn to the chocolate-chip muffin on your plate.
“Oh come on, Ynn. Tell us.
“Um, Liana, I’m sorry you have to hear this,” you begin hesitantly. She just looks at you. “He told me to tell you guys about that thing he does in bed that um,” Liana nods for you to continue. “Makes me moan and yell his name.”
The girls just stare at you.
“I’m not going to, though. That’s, um, a rather private matter, and I feel the need to express that I am not going to elaborate.”
Liana smiles. “Hey, at least my brother knows how to make you feel good, right?”
You look at her and are surprised that she’s not completely disgusted with what you said.
“Don’t worry. I’m here as your friend not Mathew’s brother.”
“Yn, we want more, please tell us more!” another one of the girls at the table says to you. You really didn’t want to brag about your relationship with Mathew. It was strong, loving, healthy, and made you extremely happy. There was something about Mathew, however, that made you want to talk about him and put him on display.
You smile. “What do you want to know?”
I've got his nights, I've got his name There ain't no shame in this girl's game If he was yours, you'd do the same Without apologizing
The girls wanted a story from the first year in your relationship. What story to tell them? There were so many. You first thought instantly goes to the first time you ever wore his jersey and went to one of his games. You begin telling the story.
You and Mathew had been dating for almost seven months before he invited you to a game. He wanted to make sure that you weren’t with him for his money or fame, and you understood that. You never prompted him or forced him to insert yourself into his life. You let Mathew decide when he wanted to introduce to his friends and teammates. You were fully content on watching Mathew from your television on game nights.
However, one night, Mathew decided that he wanted to have you at the game. It was a home game against the Rangers, a rivalry that has a long history in New York. He bought you your tickets and told you that your seats weren’t with the other WAGs per your request. You didn’t want to sit with them quite yet until you were ready, and Mathew respected that. Also, he had yet to tell anyone on the team he was seeing anyone.
When you left for work the morning of the game, Mathew was still there. However, when you got home, he wasn’t but in his place was a jersey. Not just any jersey, however, it was Mathew’s jersey with his number and last name on it. You looked at it and smiled; you couldn’t wait to wear it for him.
About an hour later, you put on the jersey and head to the arena. When you’re seated, you finally realize how close up your seats are. You looked around and were so giddy. You were going to be watching your boyfriend, whom you were sure you were in love with, play the sport he absolutely loves.
You watched the boys come out for warm ups, and your heart swelled. He was in his element, and he looked so happy. You loved how effortlessly he made the sport look, and you loved how he interacted with his teammates. You were so caught up in watching him that you didn’t notice that Mathew was watching you. It took a few moments, but you did eventually realize, and you both laughed. You remember someone, who you now know was Anders, smacking Mathew over the shoulder.
The Islanders won that night in a overtime, and you were beyond elated. Mathew told you that he’d meet you at your car and that he did.
When you saw him, you jumped into his arms and held him tightly. “You played so well, baby.”
Mathew pulls away for a moment and looks down at you. “Yeah, well I had the woman I love in the stands and my new good luck charm.”
You pull back for a moment. Were you hearing this right? Did Mathew just tell you he loved you?
“Before you start overthinking everything and scrunch up your nose in that really adorable way, let me just confirm, yes, I do love you. Yn, I love you.”
“I wasn’t going to overthink anything, you’re wrong.”
Matthew laughs. “You know, you’re avoiding the obvious.”
You knew you were. “I thought I was pointing out the obvious.”
“Do you need me to say it again, yn?” Mathew asks.
You pretend to ponder it. “Yeah, I do, Mathew.”
“Yn, I love you.”
You smile. “I love you, too, Mathew.” You remember him leaning down and kissing you. You remember that you both had to eventually separate so that you could drive back to your place. You remember that night that you fell asleep in Mathew’s arms hopeful of what can happen one day.
“Oh yeah, I remember that,” Grace says. You look at her puzzled. “Anders, Tito, and I think Sydney and Matt were there, too. Anders said that Mathew was staring at a girl, so we all followed Mathew secretly, and we saw you guys.”
“That’s right! That did happen!” Sydney remarks.
“So, you weren’t really shocked when Mathew finally introduced me to all of you?”
“No, we really weren’t. We didn’t quite see your face, but we knew Mathew was seeing someone.” Sydney answers.
“We finally realized what was behind Mathew’s stellar playing. Anders once came home from a roadie saying that Mathew was playing extremely well and wasn’t sure what to correlate it to. Now we know, it was you.” Grace says.
Your smile reaches ear to ear.
“That’s so cute and romantic, you guys. The two of you were made for each other.” Candace dotes.
You smile. You didn’t want to brag but yes, you and Mathew were made for each other. Yes, sometimes it was hard, but you knew that at the end of the day, you and Mathew loved each other to pieces.
“Hmm. Tell us about meeting Mathew for the first time. That has to be a story.” Tessa. You smile at the memory.
You were running late. The uptown 4 train in Brooklyn was having a bunch of delays, and you didn’t have time to walk to the closest 5 train station. The 4 train heading uptown to Brooklyn Bridge finally came and you jumped on. You breathed a sigh of relief as the train rolled away from the station. However, you became aggravated when it stopped in the middle of the tunnel, and an announcement came that the train would be moving shortly. Yeah, you knew what that meant. You could either be moving again in two minutes or two hours.
Twenty minutes passed, and your feet were starting to ache. You really wished that you wore flats on your commute and then changed into your heels at work.
“Did you want to sit?” someone asked. You remember looking up. “Your feet look like they’re killing you, did you want to sit? I don’t mind standing.”
“Oh, um, no it’s okay, I’m good.” You remember saying.
“No, really, I insist,” he insisted.
You shake your head. “I’m fine, I promise.”
“So, then, if I stand up, you’re not going to sit down?” he asks with a raised eyebrow.
“No, someone else can sit,” you remember saying. You weren’t one to take up offers like this out of respect for the other person, and you were also very stubborn.
He chuckles and sighs. “Can you just sit? I don’t know why you won’t take up the offer of my generosity. I just don’t think you’re really all that comfortable.”
You hesitate.
“What if,” he proposes. “I got up and said I wanted to stretch my legs, and you just took up the opportunity to sit?”
You look at him and are about to say something, but he gets up and mumbles something about needing to stretch his legs. He gives you a knowing look (one that you’ve grown to love). and you know you are going to sit. So, you sit. You breathe a sigh of relief, and he laughs softly.
“See, was that so hard?”
You look at him and grumble. “No.”
He laughs and time passes quickly. It only took thirty more minutes after this for the train to start moving. You exited the Brooklyn Bridge - City Hall station ninety minutes after you would have liked. You were fast walking because you had to catch the Uptown 3 train.
“Hey, wait,” you don’t think this person is talking to you, so you keep walking. He taps your shoulder, and you finally turn around. “I know this is weird, but can I get your number?”
You remember looking at him shocked and he laughed at you.
“I’m Mathew, and there’s something about you that I want to get to know better.”
For some reason, that cheesy line made you smile, and you gave him your number. And, as they say, the rest is history.
“Wait, Mathew took the subway?” Liana asks puzzled.
“Yeah, he said that he was running late for meeting Tito, and he thought taking the subway would be faster. Clearly, it wasn’t.” You explain.
“Oh, Yn, give us more stories about you and Matthew,” one of the girls says.
You smile softly. You really weren’t sure what else more to say. You really didn’t want to brag about your relationship with Mathew. The constant theme in your relationship was that you kept private things private. Mathew was private in the sense of the media, and you were just a private person all around. But, something about today and the girls asking made you want to spill literally everything.
“I’d ask about the proposal, but Mathew has shared that a million times,” Candace jokes. “Just give us a random story that makes you laugh or smile.”
“I can give you that,” you say. You ruminate for a moment and begin.
Matthew was spending the weekend with you because he didn’t have any games, and they just came off of a two week road trip. You guys missed each other, and, at the stage your relationship was at, being without each other for even an hour was unbearable. This was not to say, though, that it was easy to be apart now. Only, now, you both have learned to find a way to make that pain ease a bit.
It was 12:34pm on a Saturday, and you were hungry for lunch. Mathew said he was taking you out for his favorite sushi place and told you to eat a light lunch. So, you were going to make some avocado toast. No, nothing fancy. The basic summary was that you had pumpernickel bread and a ripe avocado that might go bad soon.
You retreat from the warmth of Mathew, the pillows, and blankets to make some toast. You didn’t hear Mathew follow you; you actually didn’t think he was going to considering you told him you’d just bring it to him. You put the bread in the toaster and pulled out a knife to cut the avocado. You waited for a few minutes as the bread toasted. You looked out into the living room but didn’t see Mathew. You figured that he went to the washroom.
The toaster dings, and the toast pops out. You put the toast on the plate and begin cutting the avocado to spread onto the toast. Suddenly, you feel two very strong arms snake around your waist. It’s Matthew, who else?
“You cut your avocado weirdly,” he says, and you just look at him.
What? “What?”
“You cut the avocado weirdly.”
You snicker. “What is a not weird way to cut your avocado?”
“I don’t know, I just know you cut it weirdly.”
“Why can’t it be that I cut it normally, and you cut it weirdly?”
“Because, yn, you need a weird thing.”
You giggle. “Why do I need a weird thing?”
“Because all people in a relationship have a weird thing that only the other person in it knows.”
“So, you’re telling me that my weird thing is that I cut avocados weirdly?”
“Mhm, exactly.” Mathew takes a piece of toast with avocado already on it and bites into it.
“Despite that, though, you still make very tasty avocado toast, babe.”
“Well, if my weird thing is about cutting avocado, what’s you weird thing?”
“I don’t know, you have to figure it out on your own.”
You remember smiling and then kissing his cheek. Dinner that night did not disappoint, and Mathew brought you to the right restaurant.
“Did you ever figure out what his weird thing was?” Sydney asks.
“I mean, no? But, like, the way I cut the avocado is not weird, so I’m not sure what he was getting at. I told him that the way he ties his shoes was weird.”
“Not the skates?” Grace asks.
“No, not the skates. I told him that there was a difference between the skates and the shoes.”
The girls laugh. “How did you do that? Isn’t it the same?” Candace asks. “It is, but he wouldn’t tell me why the avocado cutting was weird, so I did this. He took me to the rink the day after I told him and forced me to watch him tie his skates like ten times. I guess it’s what I deserve.”
“That was a cute story. As my future sister-in-law, I want to say, I’m glad Mathew has you in his life.” Liana says.
You smile. “I can drink to that.” You all clink your glasses and take a sip.
You loved these girls and were so glad that you got to celebrate your Bachelorette with them. You wouldn’t have it any other way.
If he were a wine, he'd be the shelf at the top (Top) If he were a house, he'd be the end of the block (Block) Walked up to my heart and went, "Knock, knock, knock" So I've got to show him off
You got home that day at 4:00 pm and before Mathew. You were expecting that; Tito told you that Mathew and the boys would be out later only because their day started later. You went into your bedroom and changed out of your bride-to-be outfit and into your comfortable clothes. You took off your makeup and put your hair in a comfortable style. You were going to use the time to open some of the invitations you’ve received and mark down their attendance and meal choices.
Constantly, though, your mind went straight to Mathew. Every thought you had went back to Mathew but not in a sophomoric, conceited way. In a way that expressed your true love for him and how you felt. You didn’t like talking about your relationship with Mathew often; you enjoyed the privacy, and it allowed you to grow as a person both in the relationship and outside it.
However, this didn’t mean that you didn’t want to talk about Mathew all the time. You knew that if you didn’t control yourself, you’d be one of those girls that brought up her boyfriend at the most random times. You also knew that those types of girls were annoying, so you tried not to be like that.
That didn’t mean you didn’t let your mind wander to those places. Mathew was amazing. Sure, there were some flaws, but the great things about him enormously outweighed the flaws. Mathew had the most beautiful hazel eyes you have ever seen. Even if you had friends who hazel eyes, their eye color didn’t match Mathew’s, nothing could. He could be doing the most mundane task or thing and you’d immediately fall more in love. No question about it.
Physically? Mathew had the body of a Greek god and that drove your crazy. When he constantly walked around with a shirt on? You had to force yourself not to jump up and kiss him or run your hands down his broad, firm chest. When you both sat on the couch and he didn’t have a shirt on, you absolutely adored just running your hand up and down his abs as if it were a pillow. Yeah, you wanted to shout from your balcony that you had a hot boyfriend, no, fiance now, that you loved. You loved running your fingers through his hair. There was softness that was indescribable. His hair was rough but also soft at the same time. You constantly wanted to be touching him. All the time. You just needed to be close to Mathew at all times. You didn’t want to say you were clingy because you weren’t. You were just in love and wanted to be in the presence with him at all times. You loved to tell Mathew that you felt so lucky that you got to even be in the same universe as him. He laughed and said the fact that he got to even get your number was remarkable to him.
You were both crazy about each other and there was nothing anyone could do about it.
I don't wanna be a bragger But my man's a heart attacker (Oh, he is) Like McConaughey and Jagger Hotter than a Saturday night I can't help it that I flaunt him (All the time) I understand why you would want him (I don't mind) And you can keep up all the chatter 'bout my happy ever after 'Cause all that really matters is he's mine
Mathew got home that night at 9:32.
“Oh, you’re home early,” you said, and he came down and sat next to you.
Mathew smirked. “Hiding me from your boyfriend?”
Your face turns warm. “No, I just thought that you’d want to celebrate the last of your bachelor years with the boys instead of at home with me.”
“I celebrated my bachelor years already; now I’m coming home and celebrating what my future holds.”
You smile. “Look at you, Mathew Barzal; don’t you know the way into a girl’s heart.”
“I only want your heart, babe,” Mathew says and then kisses you. “How was your day with the girls?”
“It was nice. Oh! Did you know that Anders, Matt, Tito, Grace, and Sydney knew we were dating before you began officially hinting at it and introduced me?”
“What?”
“Yeah! I was telling them about the first time I went to one of your games, and Grace said they caught on to you staring at a girl. She was saying that they followed you secretly and saw us.”
“That’s, wow. I’m not sure how to respond.”
“Well, it doesn’t matter, now, does it? We are getting married.”
“That indeed we are, babe,” Mathew says as he reaches down and places a kiss on your temple. “So, what else did you talk about?”
“Wedding planning, you, other stuff, normal girl talk.”
“Did you just say ‘you’ as in me?”
You turn your head away bashfully. “Maybe.”
Mathew laughs his deep belly laugh. “What did you guys say? I mean, I know you were talking about me, but I didn’t think it was a lot.”
“They just wanted me to brag about you and everything. I told them about the story of when we first met, the avocado thing, how you don’t walk around with a shirt, the first time I went to one of your games.”
“Oh, speaking of,” Mathew takes off his shirt, and you laugh. Of course.
“They just wanted me to brag about my love and relationship with you.”
“You should, as bride-to-be.”
“How was your day?” you ask.
“Pretty good; it was fun, but I missed you.”
“Yeah, I missed you, too.”
“It’s funny, we can go a long time without seeing one another when I’m on the road. Don’t get me wrong, it’s quite unbearable but this honestly felt worse.”
“My take is that because we both know that we’re in the same city and can be with each other in probably under an hour. However, when you’re on the road, it’s less hard because you know that you have to be there.”
“Look at you, my intellectual fiance. Our children better get all your traits.”
“I think they should get your looks.”
“I don’t think so; no no.”
“I’m not arguing with you on this. How about a good mix?”
“Perfect, babe.” Mathew kisses you. “Do you want to go to bed? Maybe I can do that thing to you I was referencing earlier?”
The heat instantly rushes to your face, and Mathew instantly knows he’s got you in the palm of his hands. The way your eyes bulged out and swallowed deeply, Mathew just knew.
“I’m going to take that as a yes,” he picks you up and carries you to bed.
Yeah, you didn’t want to brag about your relationship with Mathew, but he was too amazing not to.
I don't wanna be a bragger But my man's a heart attacker (Oh, he is) Like McConaughey and Jagger Hotter than a Saturday night I can't help it that I flaunt him (All the time) I understand why you would want him (I don't mind) And you can keep up all the chatter 'bout my happy ever after 'Cause all that really matters is he's mine

Tumblr media
Page 1: Photo Flash -- Tom Cruise is well known for doing his own stunts, but during a location shoot in Yorkshire, U.K. for Mission: Impossible 7, Tom's co-stars Hayley Atwell and Esai Morales proved they were no slouches either: all three actors wowed onlookers with their daredevil moves aboard a train that was in motion
Page 2: Contents

Page 4: The Top 10 Floral Looks -- follow these stars' style lead and celebrate the spring season in fresh prints -- Penelope Cruz, Lupita Nyong'o, Heidi Klum, Sofia Vergara, Kelsea Ballerini
Page 5: Cate Blanchett, Elle Fanning, Gabrielle Union, Kathryn Newton, Mindy Kaling
Page 6: There's no limit to what Angelina Jolie wouldn't do for her kids and instead of living abroad, she purchased a home for them in L.A. because she wanted it to be close to their dad Brad Pitt and now, Angie reveals she's had to give up her dream of directing because she had a change in her family situation that's not made it possible for her to direct for a few years and she needed to just do shorter jobs and be home more, so she went back to doing a few acting jobs -- Angie filed for divorce from Brad in 2016 and while they were declared legally single in 2019, the former couple have yet to settle on a permanent custody arrangement for kids Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Knox and Vivienne while at age 19, son Maddox Jolie-Pitt is able to make his own decisions about whom he lives with and Angelina is blowing through millions of dollars on lawyers and she isn't broke, but she can't exactly afford to stop working either and amid mounting legal bills, Angie's signed on to blockbusters like Maleficent: Mistress of Evil and Marvel's Eternals and while Angelina would rather work behind the scenes, it's too time-consuming and as an actress, she can make ends meet and be there for her kids
Page 8: Less than a month after giving birth to her third child, a baby girl named Mae, Hilary Duff is opening up about the pressure that comes with breastfeeding, saying all of the babies latch really great but she's just not a huge milk producer, so it's emotional for her and she has tons of anxiety, and then she's in her head, and then she doesn't feel like enough, and then the spiral continues from there -- she decided to share her postpartum struggle as a way to cope and to let other new mothers out there know that they're not alone in this
* Sarah Jessica Parker is trying to convince Hugh Grant to star in the upcoming Sex and the City reboot because it's unlikely Chris Noth will be returning as Mr. Big, so she needs a new leading man and Hugh's the perfect candidate -- Sarah Jessica finds him so charming and talented and she was blown away by Hugh's recent acting in The Undoing so she's desperate to have him on the show -- Sarah Jessica, who appeared alongside Hugh in 1996's Extreme Measures and 2009's Did You Hear About the Morgans?, absolutely loves the idea of working with Hugh again and he hasn't agreed to anything yet, but she's hoping he'll say yes

Page 20: Chris Hemsworth landed in hot water with Elsa Pataky after pics of him hanging out with Australian stunner Cheyenne Tozzi hit the internet -- Chris was photographed with the model at Zambi Wildlife Retreat in Wallacia while his wife was off shooting Interceptor in Sydney and it's definitely put Elsa on high alert and she had a lot of questions for Chris when they finally spoke and Chris said he had the kids with him and it was all very innocent -- the couple has often been at odds over their careers and while Chris and Elsa try to coordinate their schedules so that their children, daughter India and twin sons Sasha and Tristan, are always with one parent, Elsa was usually the one forced to put family before fame, but now that Elsa's been working more, she's not always home like she used to be, and this little incident was a huge wake-up call because she might trust Chris, but she isn't stupid: who would want their handsome husband running around with a blond bombshell?
Page 21: Real Housewives of Atlanta alum Claudia Jordan is alleging that Kanye West made a move on her while he was still with Kim Kardashian, saying he tried years ago when she and Nikki Chu were in the club and they shut the door and she had met him before and she hung out with Kim as well and because of Girl Code, she couldn't do it

Page 28: Prince William and Duchess Kate: Stepping Up for Queen Elizabeth -- as the queen grapples with tremendous loss, Prince William and Kate Middleton provide support -- a frail-looking Queen Elizabeth sat alone due to COVID-19 restrictions at the funeral of Prince Philip, whom she called her strength and stay and the loss has been even harder than she expected -- William and Kate are lightening the queen's load and they worked on the queen birthday to give her time to mourn

My Favorite Album #219 - Neil Innes (Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band, The Rutles) on Mothers of Invention 'We're Only In It For the Money' (1968)
Tumblr media
A legend of both music and comedy, Neil Innes has weaved dry wit around sweet soulful melody for decades, from the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band to the Rutles, his work with Monty Python and on television with Rutland Weekend Television and The Innes Book of Records.
Neil joins me to talk about Frank Zappa's classic commentary on the Summer of Love and response to Sgt Pepper, 'We're Only In It For the Money'. We talk about how the album balances satire and music inventiveness, how Zappa misunderstood one of Neil's songs while reviewing it, when the Bonzo's hung out with the Mothers of Invention in the US and the kinship they felt, plus how so much of the turmoil Zappa was writing about in 1968 has become eerily relevant again almost 50 years on.

My Favorite Album #217 - Julian Velard on Billy Joel ‘Turnstiles’ (1976)
Tumblr media
Quintessentially New York singer-songwriter Julian Velard joins me for a celebration/defense of fellow piano man Billy Joel, and his classic 1976 album 'Turnstiles'.
We tell the story of how Turnstiles was Joel's return to New York, the building of his classic band, and his celebration of the city - from modern day standard 'New York State of Mind' to album closer, the apocalyptic 'Miami 2017 (Seen the Lights Go Out on Broadway)'. Julian compares the perceptions of Joel in the UK to the US, how he has become like a NYC sports franchise, whether it's a good or bad thing that he hasn't released in a new album in decades and how understanding Billy Joel as a great mimic helps you appreciate his music.

My Favorite Album #214 - Meet Me In The Bathroom author Lizzy Goodman on Yeah Yeah Yeahs 'Fever to Tell'(2003), why Karen O is a true rock star, the magic of 'Maps' and more
Tumblr media
Rock journalist and author of the definitive oral history of the New York rock revival 'Meet Me in the Bathroom', Lizzy Goodman, joins me to talk about one of the seminal albums of that era - the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' debut LP 'Fever to Tell'.
We talk about why Karen O is the truest rock star of her era, what makes 'Maps' such a special song and how it influenced mainstream pop, the contrast between the band's offstage awkwardness and their high-octane music, why being a woman can't be politically neutral in rock and the world in general, why it's silly to pretend clothes don't matter and why Lorde made Lizzy excited about the next wave of New York music.
Plus we delve into the writing process of 'Meet Me in the Bathroom', 2017's best music book, and why she will never undertake a similar project again.

My Favorite Album #216 - Courtney Marie Andrews on Bob Dylan ‘Blood on the Tracks’ (1975)
Tumblr media
Acclaimed Americana singer-songwriter Courtney Marie Andrews joins me to talk about one of high watermarks of Bob Dylan's career - his 1975 breakup album 'Blood on the Tracks'.
We talk about why this album is Dylan at his most emotionally transparent, how the album captures all the different colours of a relationship - and its disillusion, how Dylan has maintained his mystique for over 50 years, how turn a song written from trauma into something you can sign night after night, and why Courtney wishes she was compared more often to men.

My Favorite Album #212 - #BeatlesMonth Wall Street Journal's Allan Kozinn on how 'I Want To Hold Your Hand' broke the Beatles in America and the anatomy of an iconic hit
Tumblr media
Beatles scholar, author, Wall Street Journal music critic and co-host of Beatles podcast 'Things We Said Today' Allan Kozinn joins me to tell the behind-the-scenes story of 'I Want to Hold Your Hand' - why hadn't the Beatles cracked America prior to this song? How did a teenage girl and a radio DJ force the Beatles record label to rush release the song? How did the JFK assassination set the stage for Americans embrace of aspirational British pop?
Plus we break down the song piece by piece to show how the Fab Four constructed a perfect single which was just as groundbreaking and sophisticated as their later work - from the lyrics to the harmonies, the guitar parts and their first use of four-track overdubbing, the sexual undertones in the music and how it marked the apex and the climax of their 'Wooo' period.
If you enjoyed this episode, pick up a copy of Allan's book Got That Something! How the Beatles’ “I Want to Hold Your Hand” Changed Everything.

My Favorite Album #207 - Eilish Gilligan on Counting Crows ‘August and Everything After’ (1993), introversion and mental illness in musicians, proper nouns in songs and more
Tumblr media
Despite being a baby when it was released, Melbourne singer/songwriter Eilish Gilligan has long been fascinated by the Counting Crows classic 'August and Everything After', an album that captured the existential malaise of a generation when it was released in 1993.
We talk about how Eilish's relationship with songs like 'Round Here' have changed over the years as she's gone from child to teen to young woman, how Adam Duritz's mental health issues manifest in his lyrics, why Gang of Youths are the Counting Crows of today, extroverted introverts in the music world, how seeing Counting Crows live taught Eilish to be a better performer and why she'd rather listen to this record than many of the classics that influenced it.

My Favorite Album #206 - 10 years of Rilo Kiley ‘Under the Blacklight’ with Katie Brianna
Tumblr media
Australian Americana singer/songwriter Katie Brianna on the album that helped her transform herself and stake out her independence as a young woman - Rilo Kiley's 2007 swang song 'Under the Blacklight'.
We make the case for the album as Rilo Kiley's best record - and how it represents a breadth and musical ambition beyond their previous catalogue. We the songs fall in the evolution of frontwoman Jenny Lewis, from RK's indie rock origins to her subsequent solo success. Katie talks about why 'Under the Blacklight' is the album she wishes she was 'cool enough' to make, and we really overwork the 'your band is your baby' metaphor.
