"Wondering Why"
Luke Hughes x Reader
Summary: During a summer morning, Luke wonders how he got so lucky with you
Warnings: Tooth rotting fluff
A/N: This is a very short blurb, but hope you like it! As you can tell, my favorite boys are Lukey and Matt :) Sorry if there is any mistake, english is not my first language <3
Inspired by "Wondering Why" - The Red Clay Strays
Luke woke up to the soft rays of sunshine peeking through the window. The summer air lingered around the lake house that the Hughes family and their friends had fallen in love with. Luke glanced down at your sleeping figure and took a deep, satisfied breath at the sight.
You two met last year when he moved to Jersey, both of you bumping into each other at a frat party held at the end of the semester. Since neither of you are particularly fond of parties, you talked until your friends dragged you back to your dorm. Before you left, he got your number, and the two of you texted each other all summer, counting down the minutes until you could return to Jersey.
When you both got back, the first thing Luke did was ask you out on a date, and of course, you said yes. The date involved playing mini golf, where Luke taught you how to hit the ball. It was a very fun experience that brought you closer than ever. After that, Luke took you to his apartment, ordered takeout, and put on a movie, though it was quickly forgotten as the two of you ended up talking about anything and everything.
At the end of the night, when Luke dropped you off at your apartment, he nervously asked you to be his girlfriend. Without a moment of hesitation, you said yes. How could you not? You had fallen for him during those late-night conversations on FaceTime and the endless stream of messages you exchanged over the summer. Every word, every laugh, every shared secret had brought you closer, and by the time you were back in Jersey, it was clear that something special had blossomed between you two. As he smiled in relief and leaned in for a gentle kiss, you knew that this was the beginning of something beautiful.
He smiled at the memory and pulled you closer. You squirmed at the gentle touch and slowly opened your eyes, greeted by the soft morning light. Looking up with a sleepy smile, you cuddled even closer to Luke, nestling your face into the warmth of his neck.
âGood morning, sweet girl,â he whispered in your ear, his voice low and tender.
âMorning,â you replied, pressing a sweet kiss to his bare chest. You looked up again, only to meet those precious greenish-blue eyes that seemed to hold the depth of the ocean. âWhy are you staring at me like that?â you asked, your cheeks flushing with warmth.
Lukeâs gaze softened as he brushed a strand of hair from your face. âIâm just wondering why someone as amazing as you chose to be with me,â he murmured, his voice filled with a mix of awe and gratitude. âEvery time I look at you, Iâm reminded of how lucky I am.â
Your blush deepened, and your heart swelled with affection as you realized that in his eyes, you were everything he could ever want. The world outside seemed to fade away, leaving just the two of you wrapped in the cozy comfort of the morning, where nothing else mattered but the love that had blossomed between you. As you lay there in each otherâs arms, the future felt bright and full of promise, a journey you were both eager to take together.
âI love you so much, you have no idea, Luke Hughes,â you whispered, your eyes locking onto his with a gaze full of sincerity and emotion.
âOh, believe me, I love you way more, Y/N Y/L/N,â he replied with a soft smile before leaning in to kiss you. The kiss was tender yet filled with passion, a silent declaration of just how deeply he truly loved you. When you finally broke the kiss, your foreheads rested against each other for a moment, both of you savoring the closeness and the love that surrounded you.
You cuddled up against him again, feeling the steady rhythm of his heartbeat under your ear as you nestled into his chest. The warmth of his embrace made you feel safe and cherished, as if the world outside could wait just a little longer. The morning stretched out before you, but neither of you was in any rush to move. Wrapped up in each otherâs arms, you stayed there together, enjoying the simple bliss of just being, with no words needed to express what your hearts already knew.
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
I'm thinking about starting to write request, if you would like that, you could dm and I will try :)

okay someone asked me frfr for the RGB/Bad Suns song picks so HERE I GO ( @goosemagician i am forever in your debt !!!!!!)
i talk way too much so erm. BE WARNED, HERE BE WORDS
We Move Like the Ocean from Language and Perspective
The entire first verse of this song is literally RGB's headspace during Cut to, Greenlight, Dissolve, and Iris imo. like "I've been painting pictures in my head and falling short / Losing my direction, turn me around" THAT'S HIM AND MADRAS OK!!! HE'S SO SAD
The second verse is very much his weird not-his-death dreams. I just felt like is was kinda fitting? Maybe he's talking to Hate here? (The "didn't you used to dance" face and Hate's face in his flashback are the SAME has anyone talked about this yet)
To me the chorus is his relationship with Hero as it develops. They've got kind of a rhythm going now, they kinda know how the other works, they are getting closer emotionally hahaha, but RGB literally and figuratively can't swim. He's not as emotionally available as Hero needs him to be. Even the "anymore" on the end of that line implies that he has bonded with people like that in the past (at least romantically if i'm interpreting light entertainment as canon? it's canon right??) but he can't for Hero. Yet.
Even in my Dreams, I Can't Win from Disappear Here
Honestly this entire song is just him and I can SEE a little animatic in my head but I'll try to explain
The first verse feels like what his nights are like without a hero to guide, those inbetweens when he has to find the gall to get back up to the Inbetween (ha) and find another keyframe.
The pre-chorus and chorus is just his cycle of finding heroes and failing time and time again. rip.
The bridge feels like him getting frustrated and overwhelmed at his not-death nightmares and trying to explain them to Hero and this is all he comes up with lol. It's not even entirely accurate but I think he would at least try and explain them to her eventually.
Away We Go from Mystic Truth
honestly this one's kind of just an adventuring song!! Maybe cutting between his time with Magnus and some of the heroes? or just Hero? It feels simple to me and I kinda just picked it to have one song from each album lmao. BUT IT ALSO APPLIES I would never disrespect Mystic Truth like that
Life Was Easier When I Only Cared About Me from Apocalypse Whenever
This is basically "determined little ball of sunshine worms her way into a monster's non-existent heart" the song. Like the Iris through Flood era. Like "how does this little girl keep violently pulling her forcefully-adopted dad out of his depression"
First verse is sad dad!!!! I know "My thoughts came flooding in / I started to drown" relates to the title of Flood and he has come close to being drowned like twice, but it's more like that vaguely suicidal moment he has after Madras pushes him backward??? BABE ARE U OKAY
"Lit my own fuse, I could not blow it out / I was strapped to a rocket aimed right at the ground" is definitely one of their arguments/genuine heartbreaking fights but it'S OK THEY STILL LOVE EACH OTHER
AND THE CHORUS OH MY GOD. He realizes how much Hero really means to him and is just SO mad about it. Okay not mad but like!! He wasn't supposed to get attached and now here he is!!!! Also IF at the end of the story RGB turns back into a human (that's a theory people have right) "I had no reason to breathe / Until you knocked the wind out of me" IS GOING TO BE SO LITERAL OH MY GODDDD (I don't personally think that's where we're going but it would be sooooo niceeee andmy songs would work so well for thaaat)
Anyway!!! Thank you for making it to the end!! As a prize you get more song recs because GOD he literally is just Bad Suns to me
Okay wait actually, bonus Thoughts because i'm listening to L&P again, Salt is like if he ever got a weird dysphoria after becoming a monster??? IF THAT EVEN HAPPENED??? Mirror mention and my brain went insane sorry. "These memories are nothing to me, just salt" mans literally SOLD his so like. IT'S RELEVANT. idk please go listen to Salt it's so trans
Most of Language and Perspective (the album not just the song) is pretty relevant to him but that may just be my bias getting in the way lol. Cardiac Arrest, Dancing on Quicksand, and Salt would be my number ones but I'm so for real please go listen to the whole album
Disappear Here also has bangers but so far the only other song I can relate to this mess of a man is Defeated.
One Magic Moment is him and Hero for sureee but it's just a vibe, other than the first lines i don't have any deeper thoughts lol. Love By Mistake is also him idk.
Unstable is his denial song i think <3 babes is not okay
Most of Apocalypse Whenever is so happy in a genuine way, while TV boy here is happy in a fake way. Maybe it'll apply more by the end of the story but for now nothing really fits. EXCEPT FOR ELECTRIC CIRCUS AAAAHHH??? hOW COULD I FORGET. "Crushed by a tidal wave of lies an shame" OKAY GIRL. anyway never thought i'd tell you that the album with a PVRIS feature is too happy but here we are
The Infinite Joy EP is SO GOOD guys. Living or Dying is vaguely RGB-vibey? Maybe Astral Plans as well but it's very loose.
OK FOR REAL GO FORTH AND BECOME BAD SUNS FANS
#treewords#musicposting#<- because that's what this is basically#tpoh#do i main tag??#i main tag bc i was ASKED#IT'S OKAY#the property of hate#tpoh rgb#since it's about him#only reason i didn't do a suit for disappear here and mystic truth is bc they're v monochrome#disappear here could work since it's blue but#mystic truth was black and white soooo#you see where i'm coming from right

fake dating
âuh ohâ // chapter 1
warnings: mentions of sex
pairings: jj maybank x reader
word count: 2.0k
summary: your family keeps pressuring you to get a boyfriend so, you say you have one. when they ask for a name, the only one that pops into your mind is jj maybankâ your enemy.
all the girls wanted to be you, and all the guys wanted to be with you. except for one. jj maybank. you two were the furthest thing from friends, let alone partners. you both tried your best to stay away from one another, but being apart of the same friend group wasnât make that any easier. you and jj had just never gotten along. it started in elementary school, when he would bully you by putting slime in your hair, or breaking your pencils in half when he knew you didnât have anymore. that hatred only continued to grow when middle school came. now being in high school, itâs worse than ever. the pouges tried everything to get you two to get along, but it just never seemed to work.
âiâm just saying that if you were to cut off your arm,â jj starts, âyou wouldnât feel pain!â you groan, earning a laugh from kie. âof course you would feel pain you jackass,â you reply, making jj glance at you. âshut up, iâm not talking to you.â you scoff, looking at john b. âjohn b, tell him please! of course you would feel pain if you cut off your arm. you are literally cutting off your arm,â you exclaim, pretending your hand is a saw and demonstrating it on your arm. âi gotta agree with y/n on this one man,â john b states, gaining a whine from jj. âbut where would you feel the pain?,â he questions. you then reply with, âin your armââ but he cuts you off, hitting his thigh with his palm. âbut your arm is gone!â
âyeah but you have a nervous system! you would feel the pain everywhere. pain travels you idiot!â you say, making jj huff and turn away. ârelax maybank,â you speak, catching his attention. âyouâre just being a little bitch because youâre wrong.â the grip on his beer bottle tightens and he takes a long swig. âiâm the little bitch?â he bites back. âuh oh,â pope whispers. âyou always have something to say! you think youâre better than everyone else, always trying to prove them wrong! but you never think for a second that you could be wrong too, no, of course not. because youâre little miss sunshine, arenât you?â jj rants, panting as you look him up and down in disgust. âyou think you have me all figured out, donât you jj? well guess what dickhead? you donât. so why donât you get your head out of my ass! stop trying to figure me out. if you keep doing so, some might even think youâre obsessed with me,â you yell, getting up and walking away from the bonfire. âfuck you!â jj yells. you donât look back. all you do is stick up your middle finger and keep walking.
now, three weeks later, youâre in a sticky situation. âso, y/n,â your mom starts, grabbing the bowl of mashed potatoes and pouring some into her plate. you were all having dinnerâ your mom, dad, and younger sister. âdo you have a boyfriend yet?â you choke on your chicken while your little sister laughs. she was only younger than you by 3 years, so you two got a long pretty well. âoh my god mom, when are you going to drop that?â you ask, taking a sip from your water. âiâll drop it when you get a boyfriend,â she responds, while your dad gums in agreement. âwell then drop it, because i have a boyfriend.â she drops her fork and looks at you with wide eyes. âoh my god really? who is it? oh, please tell me!â
panicking, a random name slips out of your mouth. âoh- uh, d-do you know jj maybank?â your mom gasps and picks her fork back up to continue to eat. âi always thought you two didnât like each other!â she starts. you rub the back of your neck and chuckle slightly. âthings change,â you say with a small smile. âiâm happy for you y/n,â your dad says, patting your shoulder. âwe have to invite him over one day!â your eyes widen. you were about to say how much that was definitely not going to happen, but seeing how happy your mom was made you say something else.
âiâll ask him.â she squeals, hugging you awkwardly while you tried to eat. âiâm so happy for you y/n! maybe heâs your soulmate, like your father and me.â you pretend to throw up in your mouth, earning a laugh from your little sister. ây/n! manners!â your mom exclaims.
later that night, you found your fingers hovering over the keybord to text jj. just text him, you think to yourself.
y/nđ: jj i need your help
jjđđ»: absolutely not
y/nđ: please iâm serious
jjđđ»: so am i
y/nđ: my family thinks weâre dating
incoming call from jjđđ»
hesitantly, you answer the phone. ây/n, why the fuck does your family think weâre together?â you chuckle nervously, hearing him groan from the other end. âum so we were eating dinner andââ
âis this going to be a long story?â you stomp your foot at his question. âif you keep interrupting, yeah, it will be!â he stays quiet and you continue. âso, for the past couple weeks my family has been pressuring me to get a boyfriend and i got tired of it so i told my mom i had one.â jj laughs and you scoff. âstop itâs not funny! she asked me for a name and i accidentally said you! please i need you to help me,â you beg. maybe using your soft voice would convince him. âno way.â maybe not.
âjj please! iâll do anything!â he stays quiet for a moment, and you could swear you heard him smirk, if that was even possible. âanything?â you sigh loudly. âiâm not sleeping with you,â you say nonchalantly. jj groans in disgust from the other side of the phone, but ends it with a laugh. âi donât want to sleep wiâ well actuallyââ
âjj!â you whisper-scream, knowing your family is sleeping. âiâm kidding! mostly. but i will help you on one condition.â though he canât see it, you nod. âwhat is it?â you ask with a small smile. âyou have to pay me.â your smile drops. âyouâre kidding,â you groan, throwing your head back into your pillow. âiâm one hundred percent serious y/n. $50 and iâll do whatever you want me to.â you think for a minute and sigh in defeat. âwhatever i want?â you ask, and he chuckles. âiâm not sleeping with you,â he mocks. âshut up idiot. listen, youâre going to have to fake date me for like a week, think you can do that?â
âfake date you?â he asks loudly. âiâm going to need $100 instead. deal or no deal.â
âjj,â you warn.
âdeal or no deal,â he repeats. âfine! okay, fine! just shut up, youâre so annoying. come to my house tomorrow, alright? and please whatever you do, donât screw this up.â he exhales with a small laugh. âyou have my word, honey.â before you could protest the pet name, he hangs up. âi hate him,â you say, pinching the bridge of your nose.
the next morning you wake up, thinking it was all a dream. but after checking your phone and seeing the text messages along with the 3 minute phone call with jj, you realize it wasnât. âcrap,â you whisper to yourself, looking at the time. 9:19am. jj would be here soon, and you just woke up. you jump out of bed and search your closet for clothes. before you could find an appealing outfit, the doorbell rings. oh fuck, you think to yourself. you didnât tell your parents that jj was coming over. running downstairs, you see that your mom was about to put her hand on the door knob. âwaitâ!â you yell, but your mom still opens the door, and there stands jj maybank. your boyfriend.
âoh jj! what a lovely surprise! y/n didnât tell me you were coming over today!â she says, looking back at you, wiggling her eyebrows. you make eye contact with jj and whisper a âsorryâ as he rolls his eyes. but when your mom turns back, he smiles widely. âi hope thatâs not a problem ms. l/n!â he says sweetly. your mouth hangs open a bit. youâve never heard him speak so proper. âoh not at all! i heard you two are together now, congratââ you interupt her by running down the rest of the stairs and grabbing jjâs hand. âokay cool thanks mom bye,â you stutter quickly, dragging jj to your room. âuse protection!â she yells up. âstop!â you scream, as jj laughs.
dragging jj to your room, you throw him on the bed and shut the door, locking it behind you. âiâm usually the dominant one in the bedroom but i could get used to this,â jj jokes, and you smack him in the arm. âshut your mouth,â you speak, grabbing a tank top from your closet, along with some shorts. you walk into your connected bathroom and change quickly, making eye contact with jj. âso why did you want me here?â you sit down next to jj and look into his eyes. you never realized how beautiful they truly were. you were mesmerized by how much they resembled the ocean. you loved the ocean.
âokay so we have to pretend to date,â you start, and he groans. âwow really, i had no idea,â he says sarcastically, causing you to hit him. âjj come on, iâm serious! so, iâm going to need you to stay over tonight.â his eyes widen lightly, followed by a smirk. âand whyâs that, honey?â
âwould you cut it out with the âhoneyâ nickname! thatâs so weird,â you exclaim, making jj chuckle. âif i canât call you honey, then what pet names can i call you?â you think for a minute, looking down at your hands. âwhy donât we make rules?â you ask, making eye contact with jj. âiâm listening,â he replies. âso rule number one could be..â you pause, as jj stares at you intensely. âthe nicknames! we have to use them around people. so you can call me princess, baby, my love, and snickerdoodle.â jj makes a face at the last one, and you laugh. âiâm kidding about the last one, but the first three are true. and what about you maybank? what should i call you?â jj smirks and you groan. âhere we go,â you say softly.
âwell, i never thought i would say this, but i like it when you say my last name. it rolls right off your tongue. so you can call me maybank, baby, my love..â he pauses for a moment, and gets close to you. âwhat are you doing?â you question, feeling his warm breath against your skin. â...and daddy.â you choke on air, earning a laugh from the blonde haired boy. ân-no way jj!â you say, pushing him. âiâm not doing that! not in front of my family!â
âoh so in private is okay?â he exclaims. âjj! justâ oh my god.. letâs just get b-back to the rules, okay?â he laughs, nodding. âi love seeing you flustered, princess.â ignoring the nickname, you continue with the rules. for hours, you and jj tried to come up with rules, and in the end, you came up with 10.
they were:
1) use nicknames whenever around people
2) can only kiss each other if the other person says âkiss me.â it cannot be an unexpected kiss
3) do not break character, no matter what
4) hold hands whenever youâre walking side by side with one another
5) make it believeable. be sweet but not too sweet
6) donât tell anyone that youâre faking it
7) always say âi love youâ when people are looking
8) protect one another
9) y/n has to pay jj always laugh at each otherâs jokes
10) this is all fake. whatever you do, do not fall in love
this is going to be fun.

sunshine (percy jackson x reader)
requested by anon âHey, just found you today! I was wondering if you might do a Percy x reader? Something fluffy and the reader is an artsy, music loving, child of Apollo? Percy sees her and suddenly has a new found interest in pottery or drawing or something. His friends (the seven + Nico, Will, and Reyna) notice heâs spending a lot of time at the arts center and call him out/convince him to ask her out. That kind of seems like a lot so no pressure but thank you anyway!â
summary the seven and friends are sick and tired of seeing you and percy tiptoe around your feelings, and decide to push you two together the best they can.
a/n this is super long and im not sorry in the least,, keep those requests coming yâall !!!
gif cred belongs to @pydiasterekâ
âhas anyone seen percy?â hazel asked, walking up to her friends with frank trailing behind her. âhe said weâd be able to spar after lunch, but he didnât even come to lunch.â
âprobably at the arts center,â annabeth said, smirking to herself as she flipped the page of her book.
âarts center?â hazel repeated, furrowing her brow. âsince when has percy been interested in the arts?â
âsince he caught sight of y/n l/n,â jason snickered, his friends joining his chuckles.
âwhoâs that?â frank asked.
âapollo girl,â leo said, wiggling his eyebrows as the two romans joined their friends under the tree were lounging under. âsheâs super talented. percy walked by the arts center and legitimately did a double-take when he saw her. i didnât know people actually did that.â
âare they dating?â hazel asked innocently.
âof course not,â reyna said, not looking up from where she was shining her sword.Â
âwell, why not?â hazel asked, looking around at her friends.
they all looked around, no one seeming to have an answer.
âmaybe we should help them,â piper suggested. they all looked to the aphrodite child, who began to smirk. âyou know, push âem together a bit. couldnât hurt.â
and thatâs how it started.
âhey, percy!â jason called out. the sea demigod had just entered the arena. jason waved his friend over to him. âyou up for some sparring?â
âsure thing!â percy called back, heading toward him. as he approached, he caught sight of you spinning a spear near where jason was waiting. he watched you swing toward leo, who immediately whimpered and cowered. you giggled.
âready?â jason asked. percyâs gaze snapped back to him.
âyeah,â he said, nodding. they both got into their stances before charging at each other. as they sparred, percy glanced back every now and again to watch you and leo fight, you easily overpowering the hephaestus child. one of those times percy glanced over his shoulder, jason took the opportunity to catch him off guard, making percy stumble as he countered and fall back. but before he could hit the ground, something hard dug into his back.
he opened his eyes to see you standing over him with a smirk. âwell, hello, water boy,â you said, shaking your head. percy offered you a sheepish smile. he realized it was the butt of your spear digging into his back, holding him up.
âuh... hi,â he breathed. you giggled, pushing your spear forward to held stand him up straight. he turned to you with an embarrassed smile as you leaned against your weapon. âgood catch.â
âthanks,â you hummed. âmaybe you should stick to swimming, water boy.â
âmaybe you should stick to singing, sunshine,â percy retorted, crossing his arms. you let out a scoff, followed by a laugh.
âsunshine?â you repeated. ânow thatâs just lazy.â
âand water boy isnât?â he retorted. jason and leo shared looks as you two continued to tease each other, slowly moving away to leave you two alone. they werenât surprised when they found out nothing ended up happening.
the next day, annabeth invited you to join them around the campfire after dinner, hoping to at least get you and percy to realize the otherâs feelings. when you arrived, they all greeted you warmly.
âwho invited you, sunshine?â percy joked as you took the seat next to him on one of the seating logs surrounding the fire.
âsomeone who doesnât think of such lazy nicknames, merman,â you tutted, shaking your head. he scoffed as you winked at annabeth.Â
you all talked for the longest while, telling stories and jokes and enjoying each otherâs company. while you two may have not noticed, the rest of the group noticed that you and percy had gravitated closer together during the time you two sat around the fire, your thighs almost pressed completely together after just an hour.
âim gonna call it a night,â will yawned, standing and stretching. nico had slung his jacket over the boyâs shoulders a while ago.Â
âthatâs my cue, too,â nico sighed, standing after his boyfriend. will grabbed his hand with a smile before turning and pointing at you.
âdonât get back too late, missy,â he teased, winking at you.
âi know the rules, william,â you scoffed teasingly. he chuckled and the couple waved goodnight to the rest of the group. reyna, hazel, frank, and piper followed soon after. that left annabeth, jason, percy, and you around the fire.
âyouâre not tired yet, water boy?â you hummed, looking over at percy.
âno,â he shrugged, looking down at you. âare you?â
you shrugged in return, stifling a yawn. âi wonât go to bed until you do.â
âthatâs not a good rule to live by,â percy laughed.
âwhy not?â you grinned, quirking an eyebrow.
âwell, you know how im great at a lot of things?â
âyou are?â
âi am,â he confirmed in a soft tone that made you giggle. he grinned down at you. âbut uh, the one thing im not very good at is sleeping.â
you hummed. âthatâs tragic. maybe you should just sleep.â
âyou know, i didnât think of that.â
âi figured as much,â you tsked. neither of you noticed that annabeth and jason had snuck off, leaving you two to flirt and tease alone. the only evident product of success from that night was seeing you return percyâs sweatshirt the next morning. they took that as a small victory.
the kicker was when you were all playing a game of paranoia in jasonâs cabin. you were all sat around in a circle on the cleared out floor when piper had sneakily proposed the game. you were all for it. to make sure they could manipulate the game to go their way, the group had separated you and percy. you rested your head in leoâs lap and draped your legs across jason. annabeth caught percyâs stare when you had first looked into leoâs eyes and grinned as you settled in.
âiâll start,â piper proposed. she leaned over to whisper in nicoâs ear. the boy considered, looking around the circle as piper leaned back with a smile.
âannabeth,â he answered. âfor sure.â said girl flipped the coin she held. they all watched it land on heads.
âreveal!â
âthe question was âwho do you think would get away with murderâ,â piper snickered.
âyeah, thatâs about right.â
âi believe it.â
âhonestly, she probably has already.â you all turned to the athena child in question. she shrugged easily.
âthatâs a womanâs secret,â was all she said, making you all laugh. the game continued on and more laughs were shared. then, it was time for annabeth to whisper to percy.
âlay it on me,â percy sighed as annabeth leaned over, making you all chuckle. percy bit his lip as annabeth leaned away with a not-so-secretive smirk. he kept his gaze trained on the floor in front of him as he considered. he turned to annabeth and asked, âwhy is this so hard?â you all chuckled as she shrugged.
âgotta answer, though.â
he sighed, still not looking up as he answered, ây/n.â
you blinked in surprise as your friends erupted in whistles. you watched annabeth flip the coin and your heart dropped as it landed on tails.
âdamn,â you muttered. they all laughed and you joined. âi really wanted to know!â
the game continued on until it was leoâs turn to whisper to you. you sat up so he could whisper quietly in your ear.
you shivered as he leaned away. âsorry, i got chills.â you laid back down as you considered and they laughed. you smiled to yourself before answering, âwill.â
leo nodded. âflip.â the coin landed on heads.
âi asked who the hottest guy in the room was,â leo grinned.
âsun child vibes!â you exclaimed, throwing up peace signs as will cheered. âno? no one? okay.â you leaned forward to whisper to will as they laughed. percy couldnât help but feel a little disappointed.Â
the circle went around again, and when it was back to percy, he braced himself for a similar question to the one he received last time. he sighed as he leaned away from annabeth.
âi gotta go with y/n again,â he said, shaking his head.
âi didnât know we were playing favorites,â jason scoffed, making you all laugh.
âwhat can i say, sparky?â you sighed dramatically. âyouâve been replaced.â jason placed an offended hand on his heart as you turned to annabeth. âflip, please.â
percy wanted to walk into the ocean when the coin landed on heads, making the circle âooâ and laugh. âuh, i was asked who the prettiest girl in the room was.â he scratched the back of his neck and blushed. you opted to blush as well instead of saying anything as the group burst into âawwâs and leo started cheering.
after another few rounds, you all decided to call it a night before dionysus or some other unfathomable thing came to break up your makeshift party.
âcan i walk you to your cabin?â you turned to see percy standing with his hands in his pockets.
you gave him a smile. âsure thing, barnacle boy.â he rolled his eyes at the nickname as you two walked out of the zeus cabin.
after a minute of silence, you broke, âso, you think im pretty?â he blushed.
âi was hoping you wouldnât remember that.â
âwho do you think i am?â
you both laughed as he scratched the back of his neck. âwell, yeah, i guess. beautiful is a better word for it, though.â you smiled as you both stopped before the steps of the apollo cabin. you knew will was probably watching from the window, but you didnât care. you only cared about the demigod in front of you at that moment.
âwanna know the question i answered you for?â you hummed. he nodded. you smiled, looking into his sea green eyes as you recited, ââwho would you kiss out of everyone here?ââ
his eyebrows shot up, as did his heart rate. âreally?â you nodded with your usual easy smile. he looked away from your prying eyes for a second to nod and absorb the exciting information. he looked back down at you and started, âcan i-â
âplease,â you answered with a laugh, eyes closed as you cut him off. he smiled and leaned down slowly to press his lips to yours gently. he pulled away after a moment. your eyes met his and nothing was said before he leaned down again, this time his hands settling on your waist as you wrapped your arms around his neck.Â
the kiss was more intense this time, both of you spilling all of the thoughts and feelings and tension you had held in since you first met onto the otherâs lips. and it was nothing short of euphoric.Â
but not euphoric enough to drown out the cheers of your friends from all around you two.

The Trip
âPairing: Heeseung X Reader
âGenre: Fluff, Angst
âWarning: Language, Cheating, Little Violence
âSynopsis: How will a vacation go with a stranger?
By Admin AnnađŠŠ
âââââ
Valentineâs Day sucked. Here you were at a beautiful resort by the beach and you were depressed. Your ex had dumped you two days earlier. He had told he had fallen for someone else, which really stung. The two of you had had been together for three years. You were gonna surprise him with this trip, but that went down the drain. By the time you broke up it was too late to cancel the reservation and you had paid good for money for this. You thought why not go and enjoy and forget him.
You sat in the lobby of the resort after being being told you have to be part of couple to stay. So you had two choices try and find a single person or go home. Suddenly you felt someone sit next to you on the couch. You looked over and saw a sad looking guy about your age.
âWhatâs up with you?â You asked.
âI canât stay here....Iâm not part of a couple.â He sighed. That gave you an idea. âHey, not to be weird or anything...I know we just met and you donât know my name....but I wanna stay and I need someone to be a couple with?â
The boy thought for a second, âUhh...sure why not. We can friends.â You clapped with joy and held out your hand to shake, âHi, Iâm Y/N. Iâm here alone because my boyfriend dumped me two days ago.â
He shook your hand and said, âI am Heeseung. I got dumped four hours ago.â That took you for loop. You thought no one could be in worse situation than you but you were wrong. âOh my gosh, Iâm so sorry. If you donât mind me asking...what happened?â
âWell....I was getting ready to leave with my ex, Irene and she suddenly told me that she had been cheating on me.â You covered your mouth to hide your gasp. âThat bitch.â You said. âIâm sorry Heeseung, but we shouldnât be sad anymore. Letâs have some fun!â You and Heeseung headed to your room.
When you opened the door, you were wowed. The walls were a light easy on the eyes yellow. The room had a sweet tropical theme. There was one big king size bed. The bathroom was to your left. On the far side in the room there were two doors leaving to the balcony. You ran over and opened the doors, you were greeted by a breathtaking ocean view. You jumped on the bed. Heeseung followed along. âLetâs try and have the best time this week.â You said looking at him.
âWhat should we do first?â Heesung reached for some brochures on the night stand. âOhhh, look they have swimming with dolphins!â You exclaimed. âLetâs gooo!!!â He yelled. You changed in your bathing suits and headed out.
When you got to the water, the instructor guided you both in. The moment you got in a dolphin came up to you and started swimming around you. You giggled and looked over at Heeseung. He had two snuggled around him. He smiled at you. The whole experience was so fun. The dolphins were soft and so sweet. One particular one kept following you so you named her Summer.
After a long day you and Heeseung headed back to your room. You flopped on the bed, âWow...what a day.â Heeseung chuckled, âI know. You know what we should do....â âOrder room service!â You both said in sync. âAnd...â you continued. âA MOVIE!!!!â You both yelled! While Heeseung ordered you went to take a shower. You had actually had fun today. Which a was first since your breakup. Before you had stayed in the room doing nothing but wonder what the other person had that you didnât. But today you didnât think about him or that at all.
The food arrived when Heeseung was still in the shower. You thanked room service. You went over to knock on the bathroom door to tell Heeseung the food was here. When all of a sudden the door opened and you faced with a wet haired and half naked Heeseung. You froze. âUhh....foods here.â You whispered and slowly backed away. You hoped he didnât see your growing red cheeks. The two of you enjoyed a delicious pizza while watching Ratatouille. At night fall you both got ready for bed. You crawled in trying not to take up a lot of space. Slowly you felt yourself fall into dreamland.
You woke up to a bright sunshine peaking through the curtains. You felt a heavy weight on your torso and saw a sound asleep Heeseung wrapped around you. You smiled. He was kinda cute when you look at him closely. Heeseung started stirring and woke up. He looked up at you and saw that he was cuddling you. His eyes widened and he got up and turned away red faced. âSorry....I have the habit of hugging things is my sleep...â Heeseung scratched the back of his neck.
Today, You and Heeseung decided to spend the day at the beach. Just full relaxation. You grabbed a quick bite of breakfast at in resort restaurant. You packed up your things and headed out. Since you guys had the couple package, you got to lounge in the VIP area with a padded beach bed and an umbrella. It was early in the day so, there werenât many people.
You laid down and padded the next to you to signal Heeseung to lay next to you. You looked at him, âHeeseung letâs get to know each other more.â âWhat do you wanna know?â âAnything.â
âLetâs see....My full name is Lee Heeseung. My birthday is October 15th, I have an older brother, ummm.....I love music. Back home I live with six idiots.....thatâs about it. What about you?â
âMy name is L/N Y/N, I currently go to college...I have younger annoying brother....my birthday is (Month/date)...I love animals...I want to become a vet.â
Heeseung looked at you with his big beautiful eyes as you talked. You could feel his gaze on you, but you were too shy to look back at him so you just looked at the water. âY/N?â Heeseung whispered.
âYeah?â You looked over.
âCan I ask you about your ex?â
You smiled, âSure, only if you tell me about yours after?â
He nodded. You thought about where to start. âSo my exâs name is Leo. We were together for three years. We knew each other in high school and dated into college. I really loved him. I got this vacation for us as a Valentineâs Day gift. But we were at dinner two days before we were supposed to go and he said he was in love with someone else...and yeahâ You felt you voice getting weaker. A tear rolled down your cheek. It hadnât really hit how much you missed him. Heeseung reached over and wiped you tear.
You turned full to face him, âI just wonder you know...why did they other girl have that I donât...? Am I ugly....am I not good enough....â Heeseung brought his finger to your lips, âY/N, donât talk like that. Itâs not true. None of it is. I know how you feel though. I thought the whole way here after Irene said she cheated on me. But I realized that on her. I did nothing wrong. The same goes for you.â
You smiled as you wiped your tears. Heeseung opened his arms, âCome here.â You scootered closer and he wrapped his arms around you. You laid your head in his bare chests. You could feel his heart beating. You also felt like your heart was gonna beat out of your chest.
For the rest of the day you just hung out by the beach and cuddled. You talked about this and that. You felt like you knew Heeseung a lot more.
Over the next few days you two got much closer and you developed a crush. Heeseung was so different from Leo. With Heeseung it was easy to be happy and to be with him. With Leo you felt forced to be happy because he could constantly tell you that no one else would love you but him and that he was the best. Leo always tried to lower yourself confidence to make himself feel better. You didnât realize this until you met Heeseung. Heeseung uplifted you and made you feel good.
Heeseung took you to an amusement park one day off the resort. You went on so many rides. Heeseung made the mistake of eating Cotten Candy and an ice cream cone before getting on a roller coaster and ended up throwing after. You won him a cute deer stuffed animal.
Heeseung didnât realize it at first but he was falling for you too. You were so sweet and innocent. You made him feel loved. Irene ignored him constantly and only came to him when she needed him. He always felt like he didnât fully have her love.
On the second to last day Heeseung wanted to plan a romantic dinner and confess to you officially. You guys were watching TV in the room, when you heard a knock at the door. You got up and opened it and saw a girl. âUh...Hi? How can I help you?â You said. The girl was glaring at you. Heeseung looked over, âIrene..?â Your eyes widened. You turned to Heeseung and mouthed, âIrene?!?â As you turned back to her she slapped you straight in the face.
âIRENE, WHAT THE HELL?!?â Heeseung ran over to you to help you up. âIâm gonna leave you two alone.â You said quietly as you held you cheek.
Heeseung watched you leave. He turned to Irene, âWhat the hell?â Irene smiled at him âSeungie! Iâve missed you baby!â She grabbed his face. Heeseung backed away, âWhat are you doing here?â âSeungie, I made a big mistake. I let you go.â She pouted. âNo, you cheated on me.â Heeseung glared. âWell now you can have me back and it looks like I saved you just in time. That tramp is ugly.â âDonât you dare talk about Y/N that way! Now go, I donât want you here.â
âIâll go...to my room.â Irene sang. âHow do you have a room? This is a couples only resort?â Heeseung asked confused. âI have my ways.â Irene smirked as she left.
You sat in the lobby with a ice pack on your face curtesy of the front desk. You saw Heeseung walking towards you. He gave you an Iâm so sorry look. âHeeseung, Iâm fine. I promise.â You said. âNo youâre not, you have a red cheek. I donât what to say. I have no idea why sheâs here. But I wanna enjoy the rest on the week just the two of us.â He brought you into a hug.
As much as you tried to have a good rest of the day, it was difficult. Irene kept tagging along and clinging onto Heeseung and giving you death glares. Heeseung was also acting strange. He kept looking at the time and talking to the front desk.
That evening you got out of the shower and the room was empty. âHeeseung?â You called. You looked around and made your way to the balcony. When you opened the doors you gasped. You saw a candle lit dinner with a rose for two. Was this for you? You blushed and looked up to see the sunset. You look over on the beach and saw two figures. You squinted and saw it was Heeseung and Irene.
Her hands were in his face and his hands holding hers. You felt your heartbreak into a thousand pieces. You didnât wanna see anymore. You went back in the room and started packing your things. You wiped tears after tears. Why were you even crying you thought. He wasnât yours. He never was. You checked out from the resort and took the next bus home.
*
Heeseung was so nervous. Tonight was the night he was gonna confess and ask you to be his girlfriend. He had the hotel set up a beautiful dinner on the balcony. He was waiting for you to finish your shower. His phone beeped. It was a message from Irene telling him to meet her on the beach. Heeseung didnât want to go but he knew she would keep bugging him until he went and he didnât want her ruining this night.
âWhat do you want Irene?â He crossed his arms.
âWhat?â Irene smiled innocently. âI canât just wanna see my man?â She took a step towards him but he stepped back.
âIâm not your man. You cheated on me and now you expect me to take you back..?â
âI just made a little mistake. I dumped the other guy once I realized how amazing you are.â
âNo. You never truly love me. You used as your little puppy dog.â
Irene put her hands on his face and leaning for a kiss, but Heeseung grabbed her hands and yanked them off and walked away. When he got back he knocked on the bathroom door to see if you were done. When he didnât get any reply, he opened the door to see an empty shower. Heeseung was so confused. Then he noticed your suitcase was gone. He ran to the reception desk.
âExcuse me, where is my girlfriend?â He asked frantically. The man look at him and said, âShe checked out.â
Heeseung was so confused. Why would you leave him? What did he do? He thought you liked him back?
The manager called him, âSir, your girlfriend left in tears.â
It took a moment for Heeseung to understand why you left upset. Then it hit him, you saw him and Irene together and thought it was all for her. He slumped down on the lobby couch and ran his fingers through his hair in frustration. He let the girl of dreams slip through his fingers.
*
When you arrived back at your apartment, your room mate Suzy greeted you with a hug. The whole bus ride home you had talked to her. âItâs gonna be okay.â She said as she rubbed your back. You stayed in your room for the rest of your trip time. You didnât want to hear or remember Heeseung, so you blocked him.
You stayed in bed, you could barely handle one heartbreak. Now you were dealing with two. Suzyâs voice interrupted your thoughts, âY/N, I made ramen. Do you want some?â
âNo.â You replied.
âY/N, I know youâre upset, but you need to eat something. Iâm worried. You have classes and work tomorrow.â
She had a point, so you trudge out of your room.
*
Heeseung went home just as heartbroken. He tried texting and calling you but never got through. When he got back to his house, he saw his six friends giving him sympathy looks. Jungwon brought him in for a hug.
A few days later Heeseung walked over to the boys playing games in the living room.
âHey guys, I need your help.â He sat down on the couch. Four out of the six boys looked at him. âNIKI STOP! PAUSE THE GAME!â Sunoo yelled. âHEHEHE.....never...â Niki cackled. Sunoo pushed him over.
Heeseung rolled his eyes. âWhat do you need help with?â Sunghoon looked at him.
âWell, Iâve been moping in room for the past three days and I realized that isnât gonna help me. I want to find the girl and try and explain things to her.â
âAre you finally ready to us about her?â Jay asked. âAll you've done so far is lock yourself in your room and refuse to talk to any of us."Â
Heeseung nodded. He showed a picture of the two of you on his computer. âHer name is L/N Y/N.â
Jake gasped, âI know her, sheâs in my animal science class!â
Heeseung took Jakeâs shoulders shook him, âDo you have her number?!?â
âN-nOoO, but stoOoOp shhakking meEE.â
âOh sorry, what do you know about her?â
Jake thought, âOh, she told me she works at the cafĂ© across from campus.â
That was all Heeseung needed to hear to send him sprinting out the door.
*
You were back at work as usual. Working at least help you get your mind off of Heeseung for a little bit. âHi, what can I get for you?â You asked logging into the system. âCan we talk?â You froze. That was the voice on him. You didnât want to face him. So you kept looking at screen, âWhat can I get you?â âY/N, I know you know itâs me, please talk to me.â Heeseung pleaded. Suzy nudged you from behind and whispered, âLet him explain.â
You sighed and took off you apron and walked around from behind the counter. âLetâs go outside.â You said.
The two of you sat on the grass in the park next to the cafĂ©. You look at Heeseung, âWhat?â
âY/N....why did you leave?â
âBecause the whole thing was big mistake. We should have just gone home in the first place.â You avoided his eyes. He put his hand under your chin and lifted your head so he could see your eyes. âY/N, I know you felt something. So did I.â He took your hands in his, âWhat you think you saw wasnât true. That night where you saw the dinner, that was for you. I was gonna confess.â You looked at Heeseung confused, âThen why were you at the beach with Irene?â âShe had texted me earlier and I wanted her to get off my back so I could have a perfect night with you.â You groaned of embarrassment and pulled your hands away to cover your face, âOh my gosh.....â
âHey, heyâ Heeseung pulled closer, he was so close you could feel his breath on your nose. You closed your eyes and felt his soft gentle lips on yours.
Who knew one Valentineâs Day could everything turn around.

Happy Birthday
Summary: Aldisâ plea is finally heard.
Authorâs Note: Hi guyssss! I hope you are doing well! Iâm back with something new! Itâs a little ... different but I hope you guys enjoy! Please leave a comment for ya girl! I love you guys so much!!!Â
He was searching for something deeper - something that he couldnât easily put into words. Something that felt beyond him as if it was physically unattainable. Spiritual maybe? It was utterly inescapable, continuously plaguing his mind night after night gnawing at his thoughts like blackened crows. Imprisoned, forced to consume this feeling in his drinks, in his food, in his literature, and in his music as if he was endlessly damned. He screamed his frustrations to deafened ears and mourned to the blind. The only friend he knew was loneliness and he wished to know more - to be more. Something more than a shipwrecked mess but, as time passed he settled into bitterness as if they were silk sheets. Completely comfortable in being uncomfortable.Â
Another night, Aldis sat at his kitchen table drinking the clear liquid before him as if it was water. His eyes became glossed over with tiredness as his lips pressed against the rim of the cool glass letting his drunkenness shift into dark intoxication. Gradually his breathing slowed. With each drawing breath, his eyelids became as heavy as burdens. Finishing his drink with impure intentions he grunted loudly before slamming the glass on the walnut-colored table. Relying fully on the tableâs solidity, Aldis staggered to his feet. He swayed back and forth like trees in a harsh wind as he traveled down the hall. After swinging his bedroom door open with accidental aggression, he teetered to his bed. Carelessly he plopped himself on the bed. He rested his aching mind on the plushness of the pillow and stared out of the window. With blurred vision he watched the rain pour harshly on his windowpane. He observed the rain crash onto his window like liberated ocean waves until he fell asleep.Â
After several hours he opened his eyes and saw her. A shimmering brown-skinned goddess laying her head cozily on the pillow beside him as if she belonged. She stared into his midnight-colored eyes as if she was searching for something. She wore a gentle smile on her parted lips as she gently stroked her golden necklace. Still staring into him, she fingered the medallion that rested in the center of her chest casually inching closer to him. Silently, she reached out to him slowly cupping his face gradually caressing it with tenderness. Even though Aldis was startled by the nameless stranger in his home, he couldnât help but melt into her touch. He didnât know if she was casting some type of spell or if this was her natural aura but, he felt peace. He enjoyed the way her thumb repeatedly brushed against his lonely cheek and the background noise of the thunder rumbling. His curious eyes wandered her soft features as if he was walking through an art gallery. Her skin was coated in the purest brown sugar and topped in the sweetest honey. He noticed the eerie makeup that tainted her almond complexion adding contrast to her light nature. As minutes passed, it seemed as if her coffee-colored eyes began to pierce through him. He placed his hand on top of hers as he closed his eyes reveling in the warmness of her palm as if he was at her mercy. He sighed deeply as he felt his hand become wet from his own hushed tears.Â
âI feel your pain,â the woman said earnestly.
âWhat is wrong with me?â he whispered in desperation.
âThis world just isnât enough for you. Thatâs all,â she responded.Â
Aldis opened his eyes, removed his hand from hers, and placed it on the mattress. The woman withdrew her hand from his cheek and settled it on her pillow. Aldis turned away from the stranger to lay flat on his back giving him a new comfortable position.Â
âIâm drunk,â he chuckled to himself while shaking his head.
âThatâs true. But that doesnât mean Iâm not real,â she replied.
âWho are you?â he quizzed while staring at his white ceiling above.
âThat doesnât matter. But you can call me Aya,â she answered.
âWell, Aya, how did you find me?â Aldis questioned.
âI come to those who call out for me,â she said as she turned away from Aldis mimicking his current position.
âI donât know you. So how could I possibly call out for you?â he asked as his brows furrowed from the confusion.
âYou called me through your pain. I have many unique gifts and one of them is hearing the unheard,â she answered candidly.
âSo if someone falls down and scrapes their knee, you come running?â he quizzed.
Aya felt the corners of her mouth curve upwards before she giggled.
âYouâre funny,â she said. âQuite witty actually.â she continued.Â
Aya lifted herself off the bed slowly. She sat up while swinging her legs off the side of the bed before standing upright. She put her hand on the chilled window as she watched the raindrops splatter on the windowpane.Â
âBut to answer your question, no. I only hear the uttermost of things. Itâs like being drawn to something. I canât exactly explain it to you fully. But I was drawn to you - I am drawn to you,â she said as she turned away from the window to face him.
Aldis turned his neck towards her and watched her quietly for a brief moment before sitting up. As he sat up, he was welcomed by an unfavorable headache. He swung his legs to the side of the bed and stood up gradually. He walked over to Aya fully towering her with his height. She looked up to him with eyes full of compassion.
âHow do I live in a world that isnât enough?â he asked candidly.
âYou donât. You make your own,â she answered confidently.
âHow do I do that?â he questioned.
Aya looked down then back to him with a cunning look on her face.
âRebirth,â she replied.
âRebirth insinuates that something or someone must die,â
âIt does,â she answered while nodding.
Aldis squinted his eyes as he sat back on his messy bed. He twiddled his thumbs repeatedly as he contemplated his next words. He bounced his right leg constantly as if he was nervous.
âYou came to kill me,â he said. âYou came to kill me,â he echoed.
âAldis, do you trust me?â she asked kindly while extending her palm towards him.
âIâm so tired,â he answered with sorrowful eyes. He placed his hand in hers accepting her invitation.Â
âI donât want to be tired anymore,â he continued.
âI know,â she answered softly.Â
Aya grabbed Aldisâ free hand as she stared into his vulnerable eyes. Her coffee-colored eyes began to glow brighter than the sun. Low clouds began to fill the vacant air. Aya shifted her neck towards the left then the right. Wings protruded from her back and fluttered gracefully. She quickly wrapped her wings around Aldis as if he was in a cocoon. She blew a quick breath at him causing him to feel weak. She released his hands and immediately seized his face.
âEvery night you screamed to the heavens, I heard you. Every day you ached for peace, I felt it. I hear you, Aldis. You are heard and I promise your death will be glorious.â she whispered.
She smiled at Aldis once more before biting into his neck. She felt his warm blood glide down her throat like fine wine. Aldisâ eyes began to roll towards the back of his head as he felt himself losing consciousness. His mouth became agape as if he was gasping for air that wasnât there. Aya removed her mouth from his neck as she watched a clear substance grow on his skin. The substance coated his sunkissed pigment forming a visible cocoon. Aya removed her wings and stepped back watching the cocoon grow rapidly. As Aldis took his last breath, the cocoon covered his face entirely.
âHappy Birthday, Aldis,â she spoke.

selcouth // harry holland // 1
chapter 1: sunshine after the storm
story summary: Harry was used to living in his brothersâ shadows. Tom was the actor and Sam was the cook and musician. He was used to being second best and genuinely gave up on finding someone who could love him for him. Someone who could believe that Harry wasnât second best. His mindset changes however, when he meets you. The sunshine to cast away all of the shadows.
chapter summary: harry finds his life a whole light brighter
pairing: harry holland x reader
warnings: none? maybe a few swears, slightly fluffy, moody harry,
word count: 1.6k
ïżŒIt was a bitter winter day, the brooding clouds seemed to match Harryâs mood. Ready to explode at any given moment in time. Why was Harry annoyed might you ask? Maybe because there was a nauseating reminder in front of him about how painfully single he was.
The heat was on full blast at the Holland-Osterfield-Barret residence, and a fire was blazing in the fireplace, but it wasnât quite enough to fight off the bitter chills. Almost everyone was coupled up. Even Harrison, Harryâs go-to when he got sick of third-wheeling the long-term couples had someone to hold.Â
âHarry? You alright there mate?â Came the concerned voice of Tom, who unknowingly, and unintentionally, made the twenty-three-year-old more agitated than he already was.
Harry scoffed but nodded. âMâfine. I just donât need to be reminded of how tragically single I am while you all are cuddled up.â The boy reminded sharply, slightly glaring at the pathetic looks Nadia and Elysia held upon their faces, something Harry instantly regretted when he noticed both of his brotherâs shared a threatening scowl at him, a silent appeal to conclude his nasty behavior.
Sora Tanaka, Hazâs girlfriend of eight months, and the only one brave enough to test the waters of Harryâs testiness, gave a genuine smile to the aspiring photographer. âHarry, maybe I could introduce you to one of my best friends. Sheâs probably one of the most genuine people I know, and I truly do think this could be what you might need right now.âÂ
Harry gently considered Soraâs words. Out of all of his friendâs significant others, Sora was probably his favorite. Maybe it was because she grew up in Hawaii, where everyone was laid back, maybe it was because Sora didnât give a ratâs ass about what people thought of her, or maybe because she was the youngest in the group besides Paddy. Either way, Soraâs offer was one that caught the boysâ attention.
âWait, wait, wait. Let me get this straight. You want to introduce Harry to one of your mates? Willingly?â Harrison stated astonished, knowing exactly how protective his girlfriend got when it came to any of her close friends and family.
âIs it honestly that surprising? Your best friend needs change in his life, and all of you arenât exactly helping with what he needs.â
âAnd how do you know what he needs? Are you Harry?â Tom piped up, eyebrows raised at Soraâs subtle accusation.
âI donât know what he needs, but I sure as hell know that you shouldnât bring someone so painfully single on a double date!â Sora retaliated, her tone becoming sharper and more defensive.
As hilarious as the whole encounter was, watching Sora give Harryâs older brother a verbal beatdown, he knew that he should probably put an end to it before anything could escalate. It seemed Harrison and Nadia shared the same idea, as they all exchanged a look and came to a silent agreement that they had let Tom and Sora go at it for way too long.
The sound of feet pattering down the stairs was heard, and along with it an alluring melody. Sora sharply cut off the argument she was dominating Tom at, as she keened her senses to the voice coming from Paddyâs phone.
âWho are you talking to mate?â Sam questioned curiously, as faint hints of the song were heard through the now awkward silence.Â
Paddy had been upstairs talking to Y/N, an American exchange student he had met while exploring LAMDA. Paddy had decided he wanted to follow in Tom and Harrison in the acting department, and after he had graduated from the BRIT School, he immediately applied to Hazâs alma mater. (Harrison still had to thank Paddy for introducing him to Sora at a function that Tom had been unable to attend.)
âOh...uh...Hamiltonâs Instagram page is live right now. I was talking to my friend, but she had to go due to Hamilton rehearsals, so now Iâm just watching them. This whole week is ensemble training. The current cast members are going to step down soon so they have to make sure the ensemble is ready to take over.â Paddy explained before exiting the stream and looking over at Sora.
âOh Y/N says hi, and that you donât have to pick her up. Aiyana is more than willing to.â Paddy relayed, but immediately narrowed his eyes at Soraâs mischievous smirk on her face. The younger boy sighed exasperatedly before asking the question he didnât want the answer to.Â
âWhat are you planning?â
âItâs nothing! Iâm just thinking that Harry should accompany me! Besides, I should introduce you to Y/N! Sheâs so fucking talented, that Iâm still in shock that she hasnât been discovered yet!â Sora exclaimed, shooting Harry a suggestive smirk.
At the immediate mention of Y/N, Elysia shot up from her position on Samâs lap, which in turn, startled the man, and an immediate slur of sorryâs were exchanged. âWait. Wait. Wait. Are we talking about the same Y/N? Y/N L/N right?â
Sora turned to Elysia and nodded enthusiastically. âThe very one!â The American exclaimed before a look of confusion crossed her features. âWait, how do you know Y/N?âÂ
Elysia shyly giggled before recalling her first encounter with the unreserved female. âI believe it was Y/Nâs first week in London and I met her at a theatre cast party. One of my cousins attends LAMDA, and is friends with her. Anyway, she invited me to the party, and it was so chaotic! I loved it. Y/N was teaching us some American party games, and then we started doing improv. Let me tell you, that girl is hilarious and I love her, and her energy.â
Harry cleared his throat, and finally, the attention was on him. âI mean, Iâm down to go with you. What time are you supposed to pick her up?â He asked curiously, glancing at his phone for the time, which read 6:19 pm.Â
Sora also glanced at her phone before placing her attention on the youngest Holland. âIs she done now?â
Paddy unlocked his phone and glanced down at Hamiltonâs Instagram page before nodding.Â
âYeah. Looks like they just ended the stream. Mind if I tag along? Y/N/N forgot her winter coat in my car today, and the forecast claimed that it should be thirty degrees out.â Paddy responded before shrugging on his winter coat and boots.Â
Harryâs face melted into a concerned frown. âWho forgets their winter coat on one of the coldest nights of the year?â The boy stood up from his spot in one of the love seats, and shrugged on his winter coat, Sora following suit.Â
Paddy shrugged. âY/N was in a rush to go. Today was the first day of dress rehearsals, and her hair wasnât cooperating. When it finally did, she was extremely late, and almost didnât make it inside the building in time.â
Sora shook her head. âOr maybe because sheâs still not used to England weather? I mean Y/N, our other friend Aiyana, and I all grew up in Hawaii. All we know is the sun, sand, and ocean.â
âOk, I just texted her. Y/N said to hurry because sheâs waiting outside, and she swears sheâs going to die of hypothermia. Oh! And sheâs cool with coming back here if thatâs what you were planning Sor.â Paddy piped in after typing something on his phone.
Harry and Paddy clambered into the car, with Sora in the driverâs seat. The car filled with gentle chatter, mainly from Harry asking a little more about Y/N, Paddy denying Harry a picture of what she looked like, and Sora cackling at Harryâs shocked expression of his younger brother denying him the ability to see what Y/N even looked like.
Around twenty minutes later, the trio had arrived outside Victoria Palace Theatre, and a figure came running at the car. Sora laughed as she unlocked the car, and Y/N threw her stuff in the boot/trunk of the car, slammed it shut, before running to open one of the doors, clambering in beside Harry, and slamming the door shut.
As soon as Y/N was buckled in, and Sora took off, back to the Holland-Osterfield-Barret residence, Harry turned to introduce himself before he felt all the air being sucked out of his lungs and body.Â
âHoly shit,â was all Harry could think when he saw the twenty-one-year-old. The young photographer was stunned into silence. Harry swore that Y/N was the prettiest woman he had ever seen. Nothing had taken his breath away quite like Y/N had.Â
In an attempt to recover, Harry flashed a sincere smile before waving shyly. âUh. Hey. Iâm Harry. Soraâs mentioned you a couple times.â
Y/N smiled brightly at Harry and giggled shyly. âIâm Y/N. Iâm an exchange student, but looking to stay here full time, instead of immediately leaving right after my senior year.â
Harryâs head was swimming. All he could think was that he had met the literal definition of sunshine. Her smile was as bright as the sun, her giggle was as soft as a warm summer breeze, and her voice was ethereal. Not even five minutes into meeting the girl and he was already whipped. Harry swore that Y/N couldnât be remotely human. She had to be a goddess. Maybe she was Apollo. A female incarnation of Apollo.
Harry nodded, returning a smile in kind. He could stare into her eyes forever. They exerted such a warmth, and only sitting next to her, Harry felt secure. Like he could tell Y/N anything without being judged. It was decided. She was his sunshine. His sunshine in the dark. God, he was so whipped.

Henry Finding Love at the Beach
Henry Cavill x Reader.
Fluff
no warnings.
âMax! Did you grab the sunscreen?â you ask as you head for the car.
âYeah, Hun. Itâs in the bag with the towel.â Max replies. You hop into the Ferrari with your boyfriend. Youâre dressed in your two piece bikini and a yellow sundress with cap sleeves over the top, big sunglasses and a smile. You canât wait to head for the beach! Itâs your first time youâve ever been to the ocean and youâre looking forward to spending the day at the beach front house your new boyfriend has.
The two of you make it to his beach house and head down to the shoreline. You notice itâs crowded and you happen to find a spot and set up the towels and the beach basket and cooler. Your boyfriend, Max insists on you putting the sunscreen on him first and you do. Covering every inch of his exposed skin with it.
You ask him to put it on and he just looks at you and laughs saying you donât need it, youâre beautiful like you are; then he heads out with his surfboard to hit the waves. You frown and start to apply the sunscreen to your face. You quickly realize you are out of sunscreen once your face is covered. Maxâs bottle was half full when you arrived, but he insisted you put a thick layer on his skin so he wouldnât burn.
You sigh and frown. Tossing the empty bottle into the trash bag, you pull your sundress off, pull out a book and lay down; covering your legs with your dress so they donât burn. Youâve burnt them before, and not going to do that again... it was pain... lots of pain! You are enjoying your book for a couple of hours, when a massive shadow blocks the sun from your view.
Looking up, you see an extremely buff man, with dark curly hair standing before you, dressed all in white, looking around. You notice he looks familiar, but canât place where youâve seen him before. You go back to your book and then you hear his sultry low British voice say, âExcuse me, Miss. But would you mind if I place my stuff here next to you? The beach appears to be a popular place today.â
Looking up once more, you see him looking down at you and you shrug. âItâs a public beach, you can place your stuff wherever you like, sir.â
He grins and spreads out his blanket and basket. He looks over at you and frowns. âYouâre getting awfully pink, there Miss. Donât you have any sunscreen on?â he comments and asks.
You shrug. âI came here with my boyfriend, whoâs out surfing. He said he brought sunscreen, but it turns out he only brought enough for himself. There was just enough left for my face, but not the rest of me.â you sigh annoyed.
The buff man sits down and frowns. I have some youâre welcome to use, though i think it may be too late for you. Youâre already quite pink.â he comments.
You nod. âThank you, Mister?â you reply.
âYou can just call me Henry.â he replies in his British accent and hands you the bottle of sunscreen. âAnd you are?â he asks.
âThank you Henry.â You say with a smile as you take the bottle from him. âIâm y/n.â
âHow long have you been out here with your boyfriend?â Henry asks as he sees your skin getting pinker by the moment.
You start to put the sunscreen on and hiss as it stings on the sunburn on your arms and the tops of your hands. Groaning, you inform him. âHe went out to surf two hours ago. He comes in for a few minutes to get something to drink, then goes back out again.â you explain.
Henry frowns. âHe didnât say anything about your skin getting pink?â he asks.
You shake your head. âNo, we just started dating recently, and he apparently doesnât care. I think he just wanted a pretty beach bunny to sit with his stuff.â you frown, realizing this and inform the handsome man next to you.
âDo you have anyplace you can go to cool off or even just get into some shade?â Henry asks, getting concerned and annoyed at how your boyfriend seems so apathetic to your needs and well being. âIf you were my girl, Iâd make sure you had everything you needed and you getting sunburned would not be an option.â he comments.
You look at him in surprise, then shake your head. âNo, he drove me here and would blow a gasket if I went to sit in his car without him. He was adamant I stayed put until he was ready to leave.â you inform Henry. âI didnât think it would be a problem since I was expecting to have sunscreen lotion to put on, but now...â you trail off.
Henry sighs. âI have some aloe back at my place if youâd like some for that burn. but it is looking pretty angry and you should really get it seen and cooled off soon.â he offers.
âWhere is your place?â you ask.
Henry chuckles. âItâs a couple blocks down from here. The beach is nicer here so I prefer to come here to enjoy the ocean.â He explains.
You sigh. âI donât know...â you say and then see your boyfriend heading towards you. He comes up and grabs a bottle of water. He doesnât even glance at you or say anything.
Henry looks up and frowns. âExcuse me sir, I think you might want to take your girlfriend home so she can get this sunburn cooled down and get her out of the sunlight. She is going to be in a lot of pain soon if you donât.â Henry suggests.
Max looks at Henry and shrugs. âNot my problem. She shouldâve brought her own sunscreen if she didnât want to be burnt!â he replies then turns to head back to the waves.
Henry and you look at each other stunned. He stands, removes his button down white shirt, picks up his stuff then reaches down to you. âCome on, Sweetheart, let me take you to the walk-in-clinic so your sunburn can get some medical care.â he says as he places the shirt over your angry red shoulders.
You nod, accept his help standing and grab your things. You leave Maxâs stuff on the beach for him to deal with, and follow Henry.
âHenry, whatâs your last name?â you ask.
He grins and replies, âCavill.â
You stop dead in your tracks... that name sounds familiar for some reason, but you canât place why.
Henry looks back and sees your confused expression. He comes back to you and asks if youâre ok.
You shrug. âYou look familiar, like Iâve seen you before, but I canât place where. And your name sounds familiar as well, but again, I canât figure out why.â you explain.
Henry chuckles. âWell I am an actor, so you probably have seen some of my movies.â he grins.
You stop again and look at his face. He stops and turns to look at you. Gingerly you reach up to his face and slide his sunglasses up to sit on top of his curly hair. Your eyes get huge when you realize where youâve seen him from.
âYou played Superman and youâre playing Geralt on Netflixâs Witcher show!â you exclaim quietly.
Henry grins and nods, then pulls his glasses back down and puts a finger to his lips. âCome on, y/n, letâs get you to the clinic. Youâre gonna be a hurting puppy by tonight.â he tells you as he offers you his arm and you happily accept it.
The two of you walk arm in arm back to his place and he takes you up to his apartment. You wait in the entry way, looking around, as he puts his beach stuff away. He looks at your angry red arms and gingerly remove his shirt. He goes to the kitchen sink, runs the cool water and then runs the sleeves, shoulders and collar areas of the shirt under the water. He lightly wrings it out so itâs not dripping all over and then gently has you put it on. The coolness feels good on your burn. Thanking him you sigh and smile. He grins and grabs his car keys.
âCome on.â he tells you and ushers you back into the hallway. The two of you head down to the car park and he helps you into his BMW. He gets in and takes you to the nearest walk-in clinic.
Youâre seen by the doctor on staff, who examines you and tells you that you have 2nd degree sunburn. He recommends sitting in a cool bath or placing cool, wet towels on your sunburn. He tells you to pick up aloe vera gel and lather it on to help cool the burn. He gives you a prescription for pain killers and tells you that youâll be pretty sore and to expect blistering and peeling skin in a few days. He tells you it will itch and to keep lotioning it and keep it clean. âCool showers, cool gel packs or tub soaks.â he tells you will be your best friends for the next few days.
You sigh and thank him. He hands you two soft gel packs to put on your sunburns. âKeep these in the freezer when they are no longer cold. Wrap them in a flour sack dish cloth. Do not place them directly on your skin!â he instructs you.
Nodding, you head out to the lobby where Henry sat waiting for you.
âWell?â he asks as he stands.
âSecond degree sunburn.â you reply.
âOuch!â he says with a wince.
You nod. âWould you mind take me to a pharmacy? I need to get this prescription filled and I need to get some Aloe Vera gel.â you ask shyly.
He smiles and nods. âSure thing, Sweetheart.â he tells you as he offers his arm to you again. You take his arm and he leads you out of the clinic.
Henry drives you to the nearest pharmacy and the two of you head to the back to have the prescription filled. You ask the pharmacist what he recommends for treating second degree sunburn. He comes out from behind the counter and leads you both over to the skin care aisle. The pharmacist pulls a bottle of 100% pure aloe vera gel and hands it to you. He tells you not to use anything with alcohol in it, and to carefully check your lotions for alcohol in the ingredients before putting them on.
He suggested using the aloe and taking frequent cool showers or baths. He said another good thing would be to soak a long sleeved shirt in cool water, gently wring it out and put it on to cover, cool and protect the sunburn while at home. He tells you NOT to pop the blisters, as tempting as it may be. That they protect the skin underneath from infection. âKeep the sunburn covered when youâre out in the sunshine until it is fully healed to prevent further damage.
The Pharmacist tells you that your arms and hands may swell from the sunburn. He recommends you remove your rings before your fingers swell too much to get them off and to keep your arms elevated over your heart level and to take ibuprofen if you donât want to take the pain meds. He also reminds you to drink extra water so you stay hydrated.
You both thank him for his help and he goes back behind the counter to fill your prescription. You both look around some more and you spot some more cool gel packs and grab a couple of them to alternate in the cooler with the ones the doctor gave you.
Once your prescription was ready, the two of you head for the cashier. Henry takes the basket you had put everything in and said, âIâll get it for you. You shouldnât have to pay for this since your boyfriend was a dick and caused you this trouble.â
âBut Henry, you shouldnât have to pay for it either! You just met me a little while ago!â you reply.Â
Henry grins. âI meant what I said, y/n. If you were my girl, Iâd make sure youâd have everything you ever needed, and this wouldâve never happened to you. Humor me and let me get these for you since your man wonât.â
You sighed and nodded. âThank you, Henry.â you say and watch as he pays for your purchases. You think about what he told you and how twice he has hinted that if you were his girl, this would not have happened to you and that heâd take care of all your wants / needs.
Once he had finished the transaction he walked over and handed the bag to you. Grinning, he takes your arm and the two of you head to his car once more. He open the door for you and helps you in.
Once he gets in, you ask him, âHenry, donât you have a girlfriend? You said if I was your girl, that this wouldnât have happened.â
He smirks. âNo, I havenât got one. I havenât had much luck in that department.â he replies. âKind of hard to have a relationship when Iâm constantly traveling. Havenât found a lady yet who would be willing to come and join me in my travels and adventures.â he said, rubbing the back of his neck as he looks at you. âLong distance relationships just arenât my cup of tea.â he explains.
âWhat do you do for a living?â he asked as he turned the car on and started to back out of the parking spot.
âI just moved here not that long ago and am looking for work.â you explain. âThe job I was supposed to have fell through and left me high and dry after arriving here.â you said, unhappily.
Henry hums. âThatâs frustrating, I bet.â he sympathizes and sees you nod. âWhat were you going to be doing for that job?â he asks.
âI was supposed to be a personal assistant for the lead actor in a movie that was being filmed here, but the studio pulled the plug on it at the last minute when the lead actor quit and they couldnât find a replacement in time. He wad a demanding dick that was never happy with what he was given.â you explain. âSo now Iâm trying to find work.â
Henry nods. âWell, I wish you luck in finding something.â he tells you. Then he gets an idea. âHere,â he says, handing you his phone. âput your contact info and address in it for me and if I hear anything that may work for you, Iâll let you know.â he informs you.
You look at him surprised for a minute, then look down at his phone. âReally? Youâd do that for me when we only just met?â you ask.
He glances at you with a big grin and nods. âI like you. y/n. You seem nice and if I can help you get back on your feet here, I am willing to help.â he tells you. âYour boyfriend doesnât seem too concerned about helping you so I will do what I can to help.â he explains.
You are speechless and look down at his phone in your hands. You canât believe your luck. He reaches down and opens the lock screen with his fingerprint. âHere, put your info into the contacts and take a selfie. Attach it to your contact so I can put a face with the name when I see it.â he instructs.
You do as he asks and save the info and image into his contacts. Placing his phone on the center console, you look out the window. You realize you donât know where he is taking you. âWhere are we going?â you ask.
Henry grins. âI was just driving around hoping we could talk a bit more before I dropped you off at your place.â he said sheepishly.
You chuckle and look at your arms, which are now a livid red and are radiating heat. You groan quietly when the air conditioning starts to give you goosebumps. âHenry, can we turn the air down? Itâs giving me goosebumps, which hurt.â you ask.
He nods and turns it down for you. âSo are you going to stay with the guy?â he asks suddenly.
âHuh?â you ask.
âAre you going to keep dating your boyfriend after how he has treated you?â Henry asks with a raised eyebrow.
Youâre quiet for a bit. Thinking about your day and how your boyfriend has treated you.
âHow did you meet him?â Henry asks. âIf you donât mind me asking?â
You shake your head. âI donât mind you asking. We met at a welcome party for my job. He is a gaffer and works for the studios.â you explain. âAnd now that I think about it, I donât think I want to keep dating him. He never treated me well. I always seemed like his eye candy. Someone pretty to be on his arm and to keep silent.â you say quietly. âHe never tried to really get to know me and never asked my opinion on things, and never asked me what I liked/didnât like. He only wanted to spend time with me if it was where other people could see him with me.â
Henry smirks. âWell in that case, let me know when you break up with him and Iâll be happy to have you as my girl, if you like.â Henry tells you sheepishly.
You grin. âHang on...â you tell him, then pick up your phone, call your boyfriend and leave him a voicemail message telling him your relationship with him is over. That you got 2nd degree sunburn because he didnât bother to bring enough sunscreen for the two of you; didnât bother to inform you that he didnât have enough and didnât give you the opportunity to go get any. That because he didnât care enough to check in and see how you were feeling and leaving you to sit unprotected in the sun for nearly three hours, you ended up with the painful burns! You decided you are now are done with him and are tired of being his eye candy/beach bunny. You tell him not to contact you and to leave you alone. You met someone who was much more caring than he was and that someone gave you a ride to the clinic to get your burns treated and has been way more helpful.
Henry chuckles when you hang up. âWell thatâs one way to do it.â
âIâm all yours, Henry, if you want me.â you reply grinning. âYouâve been more than kind to me and treated me better in the little bit of time weâve known each other, than what Max treated me in the two months I dated him.â you inform Henry.
He looks at you surprised, but grins. âWell, in that case, how about we head to your place, get you lathered in aloe and a change of clothes, and I take you someplace nice for supper, where we can get to know each other better?â he offers.
You nod, and tell him where you live. He drives you there, and you show him into your place. He chuckles as you still have boxes you havenât unpacked yet.
Blushing, you apologize for the mess. âI still am unpacking.â you explain.
You curse when you go into your bedroom to change and it hurts like the dickens to pull your sundress off your body. Whimpering, you suck it up and just pull the dress off over the top of your head. You come out in your swimsuit and hand the bottle of Aloe to Henry.
âWould you help me? I canât reach some of the places I got burnt.â you say sheepishly as you put some aloe into your hand and start gently rubbing it on the tops of your hands and your arms, hissing at the pain.
Henry, frowns. He takes the bottle from you, puts some aloe in his hands and starts to gingerly put it on the backs of your arms, and your back and shoulders. He holds up your long hair with one hand and applies the gel with the other. âHmmm. How about we put your hair up so it doesnât get all full of Aloe gel and sticks to you?â he suggests.
You nod. âFollow me into the bathroom. I have a clip there we can put it up in.â you tell him.
Henry follows you into your master bathroom and you hold your hair with your one hand so he can wash the aloe off his one hand. Once he has it cleaned off, you instruct him to pull it into a low ponytail and then twist it. He does, then you tell him to lie the twisted coil on your head and make a loop with it, tucking the end under the loop. He does, then you hand him the lobster clip and explain how to use it to hold the hair in place. He does what you instruct and grins when he sees it held your hair... and looked nice!
You groan when you realize you wonât be able to wear your regular bras since your shoulders are so tender. You hate strapless bras, they never stay where they are supposed to on you.
You both head out into your bedroom and you start to dig around in your closet for something comfortable to wear.
Henry sits on your bed and looks around at your room. He asks you about the painting you have leaning against the wall, waiting to be hung up. Itâs a huge waterfall painting that your sister did for you. You tell him it was a gift from your sister, and that she painted it for you.
Henry is surprised. The two of you talk as you continue to dig around in your closet. You close the door to the closet and change into a strapless bra you found, and a strapless green dress. Once you found a pair of heels to go with the dress, you exit the closet and head out with him to eat a late lunch.
He takes you to his favourite Italian restaurant and the two of you spend the afternoon eating delicious food and sampling their wines as you talk and get to know each other. You discover you both have a lot in common. He asks you if youâd like to travel with him since you donât have work right now.
You think about his offer, then ask, âHenry, how will I pay my bills and rent, if I donât have an income coming in?â
He chuckles, âIâm more than happy to take care of it for you, Sweetheart, if youâll keep me company and travel with me. Iâm tired of trying to make long distance relationships work. Maybe we can come up with some kind of job for you while you travel with me, where you can earn income.â he offers.
You nod. âOk. That sounds interesting.â
âReally?â he asks, beaming and carefully takes your hands in his, giving them each a gentle kiss on the palms, since the tops of your hands were sunburned.
He canât believe you were willing to travel with him. None of his other girlfriends were willing to do it. His last one told him he was too clingy and suggested he get a dog. He got Kal and the two of them have been inseparable. âDo you like dogs?â he asks.
âWell, it depends on the dog.â you reply. âSome breeds Iâm terrified of.â you explain.
Henry frowns. âWhy? What happened?â he asks, his curiosity piqued.
âI was attacked, completely unprovoked, twice by dogs.â you explain. âOnce when I was a toddler, a doberman and a rottie broke their chains and charged my mom and I. We were sitting on our back step and I remember the dogs snapping and growling. Their snouts mere inches from my face!â you say and shudder at the memory.
âThe other attack happened at an old apartment complex I lived in. My neighbor had a pitt bull and a boxer that he kept in kennels all day and when he came home, he would let them out and take them for a walk. I was coming up the stairwell and he had just come out his door with them. I still donât know if they werenât on leashes yet, or if they had yanked them out of his hand, but they growled and charged me, pinning me to the wall, barking and growling and snapping at me!â you explained.
Henry frowned. âHmmm. Well, Kal is my dog, heâs an Akita and I call him my traveling bear. Hereâs some pics of him.â he tells you as he pulls his phone out and pulls up his Instagram app. He shows you his pics of his dog and you melt.
âAwwww! Heâs so adorable!!!!â you reply, oogling at the dog. âI think I could get along with a dog like that!â you say with a grin.
Henry gives you a huge grin. âGreat! I take him with me when I travel. I hate flying, and he helps to keep me calm.â Henry tells you.
You chuckle... âSuperman hates to fly?â you tease.
He rolls his eyes. and nods.
âWhere is your dog now?â you ask.
âHeâs at home, enjoying the AC.â Henry grins.
âI donât recall seeing him when we stopped at your place.â you comment.
âI kept him in the bedroom with me.â he explained. âWasnât sure if you were a dog person or not, and didnât want to scare you. He was sleeping on my bed when we came so he didnât get to see you.â Henry explained.
âAh.â you reply. Suddenly your phone rings. You glance down at it and see itâs your ex, Max. You swipe to decline the call and shrug. âThe ex.â you explain when you see the look on Henryâs face.
He nods and glances up when the waiter comes with the tab and thanks you both for dining with them today. He leaves with the folder and Henryâs credit card and then returns in a bit with the receipt, card and some mints.
Henry grins and hands you a mint. âI love these. They are the best mints!â he says with a cheesy grin.
You pop it into your mouth and let out a quiet moan when it starts to dissolve on your tongue and release the wonderful, minty flavor. âOh God, Henry, they are wonderful!â
Henry grins and leans over to give you a kiss on the lips. His lips just grazing yours hesitantly, testing the waters. When you respond and kiss him, he deepens the kiss and teases your lips with his tongue. You part your lips and allow him to explore your mouth. You grin when he pulls the mint into his mouth and lets the flavor season his mouth for a minute, then lets you take it back into yours as you explore his mouth in return.
When you both finally come up for air, youâre both grinning. âThat was new.â you reply.
Henry looks at you confused.
âIâve never kissed and played âpass the mintâ before.â you inform him.
He chuckles. âI hope you didnât mind?â he asks.
You shake your head. âNot at all.â you reply with a grin. âYouâre a great kisser.â you tease.
He chuckles and stands. Taking your hand and helping you out of the chair you were in, he ushers you out of the restaurant and the two of you head to his car.
Henry takes you to his favourite ice cream place and the two of you get ice cream cones, then wander in the shade of a nearby park. Walking the paths and talking as you eat the ice cream cones, giggling and laughing at how they were melting faster than you could eat them.
By the time supper rolled around, you were getting tired and achy. âI need to get my meds in me. My arms are really starting to hurt.â you reply.
He nods and takes you back to the car. Henry drives you home and parks in front of your apartment. âThanks for the wonderful afternoon, food, and for caring enough to warn me about my sunburn before it got even worse.â you tell him.
He grins. âIâm glad I happened to find you on the beach. He tells you. âI have a meeting and some auditions tomorrow morning. But if you need anything, text me and Iâll have my assistant help you until Iâm out of my meetings & auditionsâ he tells you. âIf you need anything tonight, give me a call. No matter what time it is, ok, Sweetheart?â he tells you
âOk.â you reply nodding. âThanks for everything, Henry.â you say and give him a kiss before you head out of the car.
Henry watches as you walk up to the entrance. Your hips swaying as you walk. He lets out a groan wishing he couldâve stayed with you and helped you with your sunburn. He knows youâll be in pain tomorrow and probably wonât want to go anywhere.
He heads home after he sees you go into the building. When he arrives, he orders you a dozen red and a dozen yellow roses with pink carnations all in one vase to be delivered to you tomorrow at your home and has a note sent with them. âHey, Sweetheart! Hope these cheer you up! Iâm sure the sunburn pain is probably miserable for you, but know my thoughts and well wishes are with you. Iâll see you after Iâm done with work. xoxoxo Henry C.
Henry sighs, contentedly that he found you and is excited to see where this relationship goes with you. He adores you and thinks youâre just the sweetest person. He sighs again and heads for the bedroom. Opening the door, Kal comes bounding into his arms, nearly knocking him over and he chuckles.
âHey Kal! Did you have a nice nap? I got someone for you to meet tomorrow. Maybe we can cheer her up after Iâm done with work. I met her at the beach and she got pretty sunburnt, so no jumping up on her, OK?â
âWuff!â Kal replies.
Henry plays with cal and rubs his neck and they spend the evening playing and watching his favourite womenâs Rugby Team from England play on the TV.
Henry heads for bed after a while. Heâs thinking about you and sends you a goodnight text with a pic of him and Kal. âHey, Sweetheart, Itâs Henry & Kal. Just heading to bed. Hope you are able to sleep tonight. Weâre here if you need anything. Goodnight!â Xoxoxoxoxo Henry & Kal.
A minute later, Henry gets a reply. âThanks, Honey. Iâm hurting. Am soaking in the tub in cool water. Might just sleep in here tonight! LOL! Thanks again for today and all the help you were to me! Sleep well & give Kal a scratch around the collar from me.â xoxoxoxo y/n
Henry gave Kal the scratch around the collar from you and then the two of them cuddled on the bed and fell asleep, Henry smiling and dreaming about what life might be like with you at his side, traveling and perhaps more.

how a life can move from the darkness [11/?]
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 |
Summary: Two drug addicts (Eren and Historia) meet in group and decide to be roommates to make their  living situation slightly less weird. From there we do the slow burn  found family dance mixed in with the struggles and agonies of recovery. Heavy on friendship feels, especially EMA. Eventual yumikuri.
Ymir was going to be part of Erenâs life. Heâd known for a while he didnât have much of a choice in that. There wasnât anything surprising about her coming to one of Zekeâs games. The surprise would be if she kept it at one. Ymir did what she wanted unless Historia told her not to, and according to Reiner what she wanted was to see Historia in a baseball uniform.
Eren didnât need to know that, but he was getting used to all of it. He didnât need Historia asking him five different times if Ymir meeting Armin and Mikasa was something he was okay with. No one had to hold his hand over them anymore. He had two of his own.
ymirâs showing at the game historiaâs friend
        Is this the girl from juvie
why do you know that
                Historia was in juvie??
        She watches Rivaille for me sometimes.         It came up.
                Why was Historia in juvie??
from when she killed her dad
                Oh. That makes sense                 Wait, I thought that was self defense sort of
        No.
                ????
It was all fine, and the worst thing about any of it was still that he was going to one of Zekeâs baseball games. Which wasnât even so bad with Armin, Mikasa, and Historia all there and whole. Petra had called it a âsterling improvement.â Eren didnât remind her of all the parts left to work on. Maybe sheâd call that an improvement, too.
What wasnât fine was jolting awake at four in the morning, music Eren didnât recognize blasting from his phone while his head hit go on lunging out of bed into his nightstand.
Ankle caught in his sheets, Eren held the box of sensory destruction in his hands for full seconds before the ability to turn it off came back to him. Blinding puffs of white clouds parted, and he could swipe the brightness down to numbing without his ears bleeding.
A jumble of words waited on his brain to catch up. Sprouting like weeds.
yo Baseball Boy u have friends coming to this thing right ur ocean instagram hot tub scale bro and catgirl
The corner of his phone agreed. It was four in the morning.
It buzzed enthusiastically in his hand, helpful emoji arrows loading to point at empty image boxes. They were quickly filled by another Eren, kneeling in wet sand and unaware that Armin was expanding the subjects of his Instagram. Five different angles popped up.
who needs this many pics of a sea urchin was he trying to get the seashell ur on top of
Erenâs fingers moved slowly.
        why are you awake
Ymir did not respond with an answer.
how many hours do photoshoots like this take
Another shot loaded under the text, and it could have been the end of the world and Eren still would have recognized the picture from his last beach trip. Mikasa, magically captured in a moment of lifting him and Armin into the air. The unfair, unexpected moment in a day of clouds and uncooperative waves. Armin hadnât seen it coming any more than Eren had, even though it was his picture. But he was the one beaming into the camera.
Eren hadnât wanted to go. There was a tournament to prep for. Annie had been helping him. The cut on his cheek from her toe catching his face hadnât even had a chance to heal. Captured in that one second Mikasa had lifted them up and Armin had thought to hold on to his phone, the mark was bright and red, flexing with his open mouth of outrage.
Mikasa was smiling too. She just wasnât looking at the phone.
The top of the photo was cut off with a buzz.
u have a face under that hair⊠unreal [âŠ] uâd look prettier if u smiled
Eren untangled his foot from his bedding and flumped back on his pillow with his phone in hand.
        fuck off
do u kiss ur besties with those fingers am I gonna get to watch that @ the game
Irritation didnât offer the same warmth as his comforter, but the kindling helped take off the morning chill. Eren scrubbed his face with the palm of his hand and scowled at the screen.
        you and historia need to stop asking about that         Iâm fine
A minute passed. Long enough for a yawn to dim the adrenaline.
cool
Eren waited for the rest.
He woke up with the sun shining under his blinds, his phone inside his pillowcase, no new messages from Ymir, and one unread apology text from Historia sent at five in the morning. And a baseball game to go to.
----
âYou sure you donât want to play? You have the arms for it.â
Yelena sat in the corner of the dugout. Up straight, even though her hair caught in the splinters hooked in the ceiling. Smiling, because she did that. Giving Eren an entire bench of personal space he hadnât asked for, because she did that too.
âIâm sure,â he said, taking the batting helmets out of Zekeâs bag and jamming them in their cubbies.
Yelena was the only other person in the dugout. She started better cold. According to her.
Mikasa and Historia were warming up in the outfield, Historia looking out at the bleachers every five seconds. Colt and Zeke were next to them. Throwing like Colt didnât mind doing nothing else a thousand times over.
One of the helmets hit the shelf instead of its slot. Eren ignored the field and shoved it back into place. Armin was planning to be on time instead of an hour early, so he wasnât around yet.
Yelena was smiling at Eren.
He didnât like it.
âZeke keeps a spare uniform on hand. Your roommate would have found trouble with the fit, but your proportions are more agreeable,â Yelena said. âHeâd be happy to give it to you. Playing with his brother again would mean the world and more to him.â
The helmets were cheap plastic past the padding. Erenâs hands could crack them. Easily. Take Zekeâs toys and break them to see if that would make talking to Eren about feelings and what he wanted sound any better.
Heâd done that by accident as a kid. It never worked. Whether or not it would now wasnât a thought that had even settled when a new voice found its way into the shaded dirt. âWhatâs big brother have against the world?â
Like a grinning gargoyle, mocking and light, Ymir appeared, settling her arms on the dugoutâs roof and leaning into Erenâs personal space. His reflection blinked at him from the mirrored rainbow sunglasses perched on her forehead.
It took several seconds before the reflectionâs eyes shifted enough to catch the waving figure next to her. Armin, earlier than he ever was to these, because he never got enough sleep and had to catch up somewhere, smiled awkwardly, a good chunk of his body fully accosted by Ymir.
Something heavy and warm was threading into Erenâs chest, and it made it hard to look at either of them. âArenât those Reinerâs?â he asked.
âArenât you going to say hello?â
He put away the last helmet soundlessly. âYou stole his sunglasses?â
âSince my last felony went so well,â Ymir said, hopping down and crushing a sunflower seed under the pointed dress shoes sheâd decided to wear to a baseball game. âYou should care more that I stole Instagram boy.â
She flipped off the glasses and planted them squarely on Erenâs head, bypassing every physical and verbal protest. Armin, standing out in the sunshine and looking happier than anyone should at one of these things, quietly drew out his phone and Eren rolled his eyes compliantly before the shutter noise sounded.
Yelena interrupted the moment.
âYouâre new.â
Arminâs smile stiffened. Ymirâs hands made another knot in Erenâs hair, and she passed Yelena a bored look. âYeah,â she said, âI suppose I am. Youâd be?â
âYelena,â said Yelena. A hand stuck out by Erenâs hip and hovered there with all the earnest politeness that never felt honest coming from her. She kept at it every time anyway. âItâs a pleasure to meet another one of Erenâs friends.â
âIâll bet,â Ymir said. âYou donât look like someone who comes by that naturally.â There was a shark in those teeth. Eren hadnât realized Yelena was bleeding in the water. âDonât take it too personally; that brother of his doesnât have apartment privileges either.â
Without another word, she grabbed Eren by his scalp and yanked him up the steps, disregarding his balance and safety and pulling him into the morning sunlight next to a staring Armin. Before she kept the movement going and pressed heavy hands on their backs and shoved them out of the backstopâs limits.
Failing on the rest, and making limited headway forcing Ymir out of his hair, Eren offered,âGood morning.â
Armin, eyes alight and stunned, said, âGood morning.â
Eren jabbed his thumb over his shoulder. âThis is Ymir.â
Armin nodded. âWe met by the drinking fountain.â
Eren nodded.
Ymir continued pushing them towards the bleachers, scuffing line chalk all over their shoes, with only one telling stumble that set Armin free from her grip. Eren wasnât so lucky, and it felt on purpose.
The pressure pushing him away from the dugout didnât let up. Ymir had earned her rock climbing qualifications somewhere and it showed, but her entire head was aimed at the outfield, where Historia missed an easy lob by her head because her glove was down at her waist. Mikasa had to call her name several times before it took, and she jogged back to fetch the ball with a stumble that gave Mikasa time to look over to determine what was so distracting.
She found Eren first. In their oddly connected pile.
He pointed at Ymir.
Mikasaâs eyebrows rose. He shrugged.
Ymir stared, since thatâs what she did when Historia was in orbit, and Historia kept moving while she stared back. Crossing near Zeke and Colt in the process. Where every third throw was a risk since Zeke was putting Colt through grounder paces. Colt wasnât great with grounders. His little brother was. Eren was. That was half of little league.
Arminâs face popped in front of Eren and he almost jumped. âYmir thought youâd like watching from the stands with us,â he said. âThatâs not how she said it, butâdo you want to?â
A floater landed softly in Coltâs glove, and Eren pulled his eyes away. âSure,â he said, focusing on Armin and the warmth coming through Ymirâs hand on his back. On how easy it always was here.
âSo Armin,â Ymir said into the quiet morning mist, âwhat was Eren like before he had hair?â
âLouder, mostly.â
âHey.â
----
Watching from the bleachers wasnât that different from watching from the dugout. There were still rooting for the same people. Nothing they did contributed to how it was going. It was still several hours of watching people stand in one spot waiting for a moment that might never come.
There wasnât anything new to it.
âCutter.â
âNot with this one. Fastball.â
âZekeâs more strategic than that. No one else on their team has gotten a hit all day. He wonât risk that happening again in the final inning.â
âNo one else getting a piece of him means he has something to prove.â
âWinning proves that better.â
Nothing new at all, except Armin wasnât sitting with a bunch of people who didnât care about how their genius pitcher won them the game. He was sitting next to Ymir, a bunch of twigs in the shape of a diamond resting etween them, small gouges in the splintered stands where theyâd jabbed in larger sticks to make their points earlier.
âWhat do you think, Eren?â Ymirâs voice broke into his lazy contentment. âHow much of a prideful prick is big brother?â
Eren looked over at the mound, where he hadnât had to all game with the commentary running by his ears. Where Zeke stood as the king of his domain. Steady and calm to anyone who did think to look. âFastball.â
Armin objected. âItâs the ninth inning, it doesnât make any sense toââ
The pitch left Zekeâs hand. Straight as an arrow. Hammering into the catcherâs mitt. In three of the movies that had somehow survived their list purges, this was where the stadium would go silent before the crowd erupted in cheers.
They werenât in a stadium, and there wasnât a crowd.
Armin sighed, his careful placement of twigs slipping back down to the ground.
Ymir clucked her tongue. âYou hate to see it.â
âThey won,â Eren said, unhelpfully. Arminâs heavier sigh made the whole diamond shine brighter. Past tolerable. Put with Ymirâs rolling eyes and Mikasa jogging to the outfield to walk in with Historia, it hit somewhere closer to whatever Zeke saw whenever he stepped up to the mound.
Whatever it was that made showing up worth it. Eren had never understood as a kid, stuck in the bleachers with his grandparents. Finally being let into the dugout didnât make it any better, even when it should have. Getting a taste when he was back to the bleachers while the teams shook hands wasnât something he would have thought to look for.
The baseball part was still dumb.
Ymirâs elbow jabbed his ribs and pointed at Mikasa. âThatâs the cat friend?â
Eren pushed her back into Arminâs section of bench. âWe told you that was her when she got the grand slam.â All four runs on the board were thanks to Mikasa. Â Armin had jumped to his feet to cheer for her. The guy walking his dog nearby knew who Mikasa was, and Ymir was paying more attention.
She didnât snipe back. She dropped Reinerâs sunglasses on his head and kept staring out at the field. Historia had spent most of the game out of range. Every few shook hands she glanced over her shoulder, but Ymir didnât so much as twitch at the extra attention. She was watching Mikasa. The hand sheâd dropped to the bench was digging into the splintered edge.
Sheâd used that hand to text him at four in the morning.
âYouâre nervous,â Eren said abruptly.
Ymir scoffed. âDonât be ridiculous.â
Eren looked at Armin for confirmation. Arminâs wide eyes darted between them, Ymir stubbornly staring at the back of Mikasaâs head as she hit the end of the line. After a stalled second that said everything, he shrugged diplomatically.
Eren spun back to Ymir. âYou are.â
âRight, because meeting up with your friends really earned its spot on my dayplanner,â Ymir said, unclenching her fist enough to lean back on the next row of bleachers. It didnât look as casual as she thought it did.
Armin tried to help. âMikasaâs not that scary once you get to know her,â he said. âSheâs amazing at everything, and that can intimidate some people, butââ
âI am not intimidated,â Ymir declared. âFrom everything you nerds have told me her catâs scarier than she is.â
âRivailleâsâŠâ Arminâs defense fell short. âA rescue,â he said at last.
Eren picked his dropped thread back up. âIf youâre not intimidated, what are you nervous about?â
âAre your ears broken?â Ymir said. âIâm not nervous.â
âYouâre breaking the seats with your hand.â
She stole her sunglasses back and pointed them at him. âAll that says is your brother should pick a better park to play at.â
âThe league figures that out.â
âTheyâre walking over,â Armin said.
Eren and Ymir shut up. Ymirâs face had lost the shade of color Historia usually gave her, and maybe there was something wrong with that, but the only other time Eren had seen her in a social situation she wasnât in control of, sheâd started crying. Maybe she was just like this with new people.
Historia didnât have the extra bounce Ymir usually gave her, either. But anything could take away Historiaâs good mood, and Ymir was more like her everything.
Mikasa looked like Mikasa. She wasnât someone to be nervous over.
âCâmon,â Eren said, wrenching Ymirâs arm out of the splinters. âGet up and say hi.â
Ymir flicked him off and tromped down the stands. Armin was biting back a smile. Eren held out a hand and swung him to his feet, following Ymir without helping her grow any of the cracks in the wood.
Like magnets, Historia fell into Ymirâs orbit instantly, and any of Mikasaâs intimidation factor that Ymir had made up evaporated. Ymir slid Reinerâs sunglasses down over her eyes and looked Historia and her haphazardly dusted uniform up and down.
The color came back, and Ymir coughed into her hand. âShouldnât have swung at that ball in the fifth,â she said.
Historiaâs whole face twitched in exasperation. âI thought I could reach it.â
Ymir grinned and hooked a finger around one of her sleeves, pulling her close enough for Armin to carefully switch his gaze to Erenâs shoulder. âWith these nubs?â she asked. âHas anyone tried to ship you off to little league yet?â
âShe throws too hard.â
Mikasaâs quiet insertion drew all eyes to her.
Stable and calm, she wasnât at all put off by Ymir, or Historiaâs cleat digging into Ymirâs shoe. Which she noticed. And smiled at. Sheâd had worse. For as long as Eren had known her. If the shame didnât steel out the words, he could have told Ymir that.
Ymir shot Eren a look, a leering smile mocking him. âIâve heard that.â Then she switched back to Mikasa, and the person who manned an entire household she didnât live in gleamed under her stolen sunglasses. She stuck out her hand.
âYmir.â
Mikasa silently looked between Ymir and Historiaâs proximity and Eren.
She took Ymirâs hand.
âErenâs friend,â she said.
Ymir bristled, but next to her, Historiaâs eyes did the sunburst thing Arminâs did. Those moments that wiped everything else away, because the world stopped and paid attention when it noticed someone with the brightness to change it was waking up.
Theyâd lived together for months. He didnât think heâd ever seen her happy before.
Defensive tension leaked out of Ymir like a beach balloon. She saved the last of it for a pointed scowl in Erenâs direction before dropping out of the handshake and turning away from all of them. Stuttering somewhat when Historiaâs hand quietly took up the residence Mikasaâs had been thrown from.
âI guess,â Ymir said shortly. âYour boyâs okay.â
Erenâs ears burned, and he glared at the backstop. Arminâs soft laugh and Mikasaâs audible smile did not make the burning go away. It just went other places and was even harder to ignore.
âYeah, well. Youâre⊠fine,â he said.
The brutal, heated silence of embarrassment continued. Everyone else didnât mind. His eyes flicked up and made the mistake of catching Mikasaâs.
Affection spilled out freely from her. Genuine and familiar. Warmer than sheâd been with him even before everything fell apart. She made the blood rushing to his head feel like it was allowed to be there, and maybe wasnât ever going to leave.
Mikasa was fine too.
----
âAre you doing okay with all of that?â
There were questions Eren had learned to put up with. Questions from Reiner had been an early test of that. Strung out and on fire, he could break Reinerâs face open for talking at all, or suck it up and learn how to be human again.
Figuring out answers to the questions wasnât the same thing.
âHuh?â Eren said.
They were outside Reinerâs house, waiting on Ymir. Sheâd gotten a text from Historia on her way to pick up her helmet and the world went on pause.
âWith that,â Reiner said, pointing over his shoulder at the front door.
The front door stayed a front door.
âWith what?â Eren asked blankly.
âWith Ymir and Historia being a thing,â Reiner said. Before Eren could add another âwhat,â the words kept going. Reiner was at his most earnest this morning, and he bridged the gap between their bikes with a creak of metal and sincerity that Eren didnât want. âThird wheeling can be rough.â
Eren was a morning person. It was too early for this. He said, âIâm fine.â
Reinerâs open sympathy didnât falter. Under the dark circles and the bunched tendons in his arms that still didnât know how to relax, there was nothing but plain, unnecessary compassion. âI talked it over with Bert and Marcel, and everyoneâs fine with you rooming here.â
Anything Eren could say or wanted to be confused by got lost in syrup and waffles and the inevitable. He unclamped his hands from his bicycle and rubbed away the red indents before they were visible to anyone but him. âI have a room.â
A nice room. With sheets that had made it through two homes he wasnât going back to. He wasnât going to volunteer a third. âAnd they wouldnât just kick me out,â Eren added, a phantom of Ymirâs hand ruffling his hair.
Reiner held one of his elbows in a way Eren had etched into his head from Historia. âNo,â he agreed. âTheyâre not like that. Theyâre too used to us to ask. But for guys like us, itâs hard not to help out.â His bike shifted under him. He didnât lean in any closer, but the world around them closed. âOnly guys like us donât do well on our own.â
Eren stayed quiet. His tongue was fuzzy. The way it had been when he woke up in the hospital. He didnât know why heâd decided to like that feeling.
âI just wanted you to know you donât have to go backwards,â Reiner said after a moment or two. âThatâs all.â
It wasnât that cold, but the heat in Erenâs ears still stung more than anything. He stared squarely at the ground, where a pillbug was scrunching down the sidewalk. Petra and months of encouragement didnât make the improvement feel good. Just necessary enough to be weird.
âThanks,â he said.
Reiner clapped him on the back hard enough to leave marks on both of them.

Let me kiss you, please|Daryl Dixon
This is too much.
We lost Rick so much time ago, he was protecting the community from the walkers, and he disappeared.
Since that day, everything changed.
The communities.
Michonne.
Judith.
Daryl.
My Daryl is outside looking for Rick. He assures that he still alive. So he've decide to go out and star a search for him, alone.
I barely see him. He suddenly comes here to Alexandria where Iâm in the security team. He just come to get food, and see if I am fine, and leaves. This hurts so much.
- (y/n), Daryl is here.
Gabriel is in my room door.
- Ok, Iâll be there.
Putting my shoes on, I go downstairs.
- Daryl.
He looks so tired.
- Sunshine.
He come to me, and holds me in his arms.
- Is everything okay Babe?
-Â Â No.
I lead him to the kitchen. I give him a plate with some food.
- Eat, please.
Without doubt he starts to eat. Heâs in silence, and I let him finish his food.
When heâs over, he speaks to me.
-Â Letâs go to the bed.
While we go upstairs, I catch some tears in his eyes.
Daryl laid in the bed next to me.
-Â Â Whatâs wrong?
- Iâm a mess. I promised Michonne that Iâll find Rick, and I have no clue yet.
He looks bad.
-D. You donât have to blame yourself. That idea cross your mind, because we didnât found him, but what if heâs really⊠gone.
He looks at me.
-Â No, youâre wrong.
- Baby, câmon. Itâs not fair to youâŠ
- I LOST MY FRIEND (Y/N)!!
Iâm speechless. He never have shouted me.
- DarylâŠ
- I have faith, a big faith that Iâm going to find him, and if you donât believe me, or if you donât think Iâm capable to do it, then goodbye.
-No, hey. I didnât meant that. I know you, youâre very intelligent Daryl. Iâm just trying to help you.
- Well, you donât help me so much. Iâm going to stay searching, and I donât care if you donât believe me. See you (y/n).
âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ..
Looking the sunrise, I take a deep breath.
-Â Hello.
Michonne.
- Hi Michonne. Everything fine?
- It's me who have to ask you that cuestion.
Turning around I answer.
- I donât know.
With tears In my eyes she come to me.
- Talk to me.
- Is Daryl. He get mad at me the last time he came. Heâs sure Rick is still alive, he blame himself for not found him, so I tried to talk to him, but was useless. He went mad at me. And now I donât know where he is.
- Oh darling. Iâm sorry for this.
- You donât have to blame you Michonne. Itâs me. I had to understand his point, and I didnât.
- No, he have to understand that you love him, and you care about him.
Smiling at her, I nod.
-Â I Know. But he didnât come yet. And I need him very much right now.
-Â Why?
-Â Iâm pregnant.
âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ..
Michonne pov.
- Ok. Did you found him?
- I have some clues. Not very sure, but Ezekiel will be going today, so he can confirm us.
-After the news of (y/n) pregnant I started an intense search for Daryl.
She been vulnerable those days, we take care of her o course, but he need Daryl in this important moment.
-Â Ok, we need to say something that bring him here.
-Yes, I got it. Ezekiel can manage that.
âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ..
Reader pov.
Lying in my room I touch my belly. A knock on the door gets me out of my thoughts.
-Â Hey honey.
-Â Hey Carol.
-Â Can I come in?
- Sure, come.
She sits next to me.
- How are you feeling?
-More or less I want to cry sometimes at day, and I donât like it.
- Yes, itâs very normal. Donât worry.
I smile at her.
- So, youâve decide the name if itâs a Girl or a Boy?
-Â Â Hahaha I donât know. Iâm not very creative at this, you know?
-Â Well, that will be later for sure.
We laugh.
-Â We have an important meeting tonight.
-Â Ok, Iâll be there.
-Â Weâll be waiting for you.
âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ..
Later this day, Iâm walking to Michonne house for the meeting.
- Hello? Why is nobody here?
- Thereâs no meeting yet.
His voice.
- Â Daryl?
Turning around I see him standing there.
-  What are you�
-Â Â Shut up and let me kiss you, please.
And he kiss me. Slowly, like if Iâm the prettiest thing in the world.
- Â Â Â Â Â Â Â I love you, please forgive me. Please. Iâm an idiot.
-Â Hey, calm down. Itâs ok.
-Â No, itâs not ok. Â Shouted at you. I was out of my mind, Iâve never ever do it before, and I promise Iâll never do it again. Forgive me.
Smiling at him, I nod.
- Just, make me a promise.
He caress my cheeck.
- Donât blame yourself for all that happen to Rick, ok?
He nod at me.
- Now, we have a meeting to go. Wanna come?
- They told me about a meeting here too⊠oh.
Yes. Michonne and Carol told us about a meeting, just to encounter the each other here.
-Â Those two.
I laugh. He see me.
- Youâre going to stay here? I need you with me.
- Yes, Iâll stay.
-Then. Letâs go home.
âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ..
While Daryl is taking a quick shower, Iâm preparing some food for us. Iâm looking for the words to say that Iâm pregnant.
-Â Sunshine, Iâm here. Let me help you.
His voice behind me makes me jump a little.
-Hey, whatâs up with you? You donât scare easy. Â
-Â Well, this is the first time.
We laugh.
After the dinner, we talk a little about the adventures of him outside. He found a Dog called Dog.
-Â Where is he?
-Â Â With Rosita and Eugene. Theyâre taking care of him. I wanted to have this night for us and only us.
After a moment of silence, I decide to tell him.
-Â I have some things to share with you while you were not here. Want to hear it?
-Â Of course.
Taking a deep breath I continue.
- You know the love grows every day. And you can feel it, you know? Like something is growing inside you, something inexplicable, lovely, and beautiful.
He nod.
-Â So, Iâve been feeling that thing lately. And I think this magical thing will make us stronger as a couple.
- You adopted another Dog?
I laugh.
- No baby, something more beautiful⊠you have to guess.
- Â A turtle?
- What? A turtle? haha. Nooooo.
- What?
- Â A baby.
With a confusing smirk he see me.
- HowâŠ
- Â Iâm pregnant.
He looks so in shock.
- WeâŠ
-Â Weâll be parents.
When I see him I notice tears in his eyes. And he hug me. So close.
-Â This is the best news in in my life. Weâll be having a baby.
-Â Yes, and itâs the pure product of our love baby.
He smile at me.
-Â Oh Gosh, Iâm the happiest person in the universe right now. What if itâs a girl? She definitely will look like you. And if itâs a boy, oh man, he too.
Crying, seeing Darylâs excitement I hug him.
-Â We have to think about the name first.
âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ..
-Â Daryl Iâm ok.
Weâre in his motorbike in the way to Ocean Side.
- You donât fell uncomfortable?
- No baby, Iâm good.
- This is dangerous juâŠ
-Â Just go on. This baby will love the bikes as you do.
In Ocean Side where part of us are. I saw Judith and I go to her.
- Hello (y/n) and little baby.
- He or she says hello too. How are you lady?
-Â Very good now that everyone is here.
Sheâs very mature, I love her.
Later, we decide to reunite everyone to have dinner together, and weâre now talking, and laughing between us. And this makes me happy.
-Â Our baby will be happy here. Thereâs Jud, Gracie and all the kids. And he or sheâll be have so many hands to take care of it when we are outside.
-Â Yes, and itâs perfect, donât you think so?
Iâm sitting next to Daryl in a tree. Holding hands. He speak first.
- I have to confess something. When I was a teen, my Dad used to told me that I could never be a parent, or any woman could ever be in love with me. Because I'm selfish, a nobody. But now, I have you and you love me, you see the best part of me, you make me have confidence in me, and now weâre having a baby. This is unbelievable. If we were in the normal world, I had already propose matrimony to you. And i could take you and our little baby to the park, the cinema, to run and to a motorbike ride.
-Â We don't have to be in the real world to make all of that, baby. We just have to be together. Thatâs all. And, about your father, he was veeeeery wrong. You are the most incredible, kind, intelligent, gentleman, and adorable boy I've ever meet. Thatâs why I fell in love with you.
-Â Â Nodding and smiling, he kiss my forehead.
-Â Â What did I do to deserve you (y / n)?

To my wonderful friends, family, & others...
This is going to be long as fuck. Chan speak less challenge
Haneul, I'll never be able to thank you enough for everything you've done and continue to do for me always. It used to feel wrong, really, to have you care so much. Worry so much. Help so much. I always thought I should be able to do things alone. Move on my own. Heal on my own. I always thought that it was my job to be there for others, not burden them. I never allowed myself to ask for help because it felt as if I was weak, incapable. Deep down, I was afraid of doing so. I was afraid of letting people in. I was afraid of letting people help because that would mean showing them everything wrong. And who could trust me once they found out how fucked up I was? Who could love me? But you showed me how wrong I was. You taught me that one of the bravest things I could ever do was asking for help. Allowing myself to hurt and heal, and not do it alone. You continue to remind me everyday how much I am worth, how capable of receiving and giving love I am. You stay by my side no matter how many times I screw up, and that means the absolute world to me. To welcome you into my life is probably one of the best decisions I've ever made. I promise to keep working hard for you. For us. I love you forever, and I thank you wholeheartedly for everything.
Jihyo, even though you're not here anymore, it would be wrong to just erase you like that. I probably should've said all of this before, I should've let you know how much you meant to me, how much I loved you. I fucking genuinely loved you. I love you. And I probably will always, because what I feel for you doesn't just die out. I know I screwed up, I know I pushed you away, I know I couldn't be there for you, and I'm sorry. I will always be sorry. Because you deserved so much more. When I told you I would've dropped everything for you, I meant it. Have you just told me, I would've done things differently. And I will always regret not having been able to give us a chance. Not having acted sooner. Not having spoken up when I could have. I know you loved me just as much, and I'm sorry I put you through that, because I know loving me hurt you, and I never wanted to cause you any pain. I guess some things just aren't meant to be, but that doesn't make it less shitty, hm? I miss you. I've been missing you for a while now, but it was better to part ways. And now you're entirely gone, once again you slipped right in between my fingers. But its ok, I'm letting you go. I'm setting you free now. I promised I wouldn't go away, and that was a shitty thing to do because maybe you needed me to. I'm sorry for all the pain, all the hurt, all the tears. I'm sorry I wasn't enough. And wherever you are now, I hope you can find the calm you so badly craved. The peace of mind and the love you deserve.
My pack, my wonderful pack. The boys that have watched my back more than I've watched theirs. The boys that have carried me through some of my darkest times. I won't ever have enough words to thank you. Thank you for choosing me. Trusting me. Giving me the chance to give you a home, a family. Accepting me as I am, accepting me as a whole with everyone and everything that I love. I'll be forever grateful to have you.
Yeji, Chae & Chae, you're really something else, hm? The three of you with your own particularities. The way you care, the way you're always there, the way you've always the right things to say. The way you love. It is heart warming, really, how selfless you are. There's not been one time in which you haven't been there for me. And I promise you I'll always be there for you too.
When I sat down to create the family list, i thought hard. Really really hard. What is family, right? Because, family it's not only about blood bond. It's not about having been born from the same parents or sharing uncles. It's not just being the same family tree. And so I thought, what are reason to add these three wonderful girls into my family? And then it hit me that there's not a single definition for it. That family is such a complex concept.
Yeji, you have showed to be an exceptional friend over and over. The fact that we started talking over a sex joke it's quite amusing, too. And now look how far we've made it. I don't think I'm half of the crackhead I'm with you with anyone else. You don't need me at all. Not as I'm used to being needed, at least. And that eases me so much. That liberates me of so many responsibilities while around you. You are a safe place, and I hope I can be the same to you at some point.
P. Chae, even though we haven't really spoken much privately or alone, I can't help but consider you family for another number of reasons. You're just always there, y'know? You've always been. Somehow you got under our skin. all of us, including admin. You're probably one of the weirdest people I've ever had the chance to meet, but it's ok because that makes you YOU and I love it. There's never a sad time when around you. You lift everyone's mood so fast, always. You're loving and caring in your own especial way. I'll never forget the first time you messaged me, either. You were so worried about Haneullie that day, apologizing so much for bothering but at the same time urging me to check on her. I told it was ok even though I was quite busy, but it didn't matter because you are her beat friend, right? And if you come at me freaking out over my little sis I'll drop everything in a second. It was heart warming, really, and since then I've never not once doubted your heart.
S. Chae, you're one of the most caring, selfless, loving, wonderful, unique people I've ever had the luck to cross paths with in my entire life. You're always there. No matter what's going on, you're always there. There with your hearts that put a smile on my face, there with your quotes that make me rethink my day, there with your love that makes me feel like I'm not alone, there with your horny ass that makes me feel validated, there with your gentle words that make me realize that its ok to breakdown sometimes. You're always there, even though we haven't been there for you enough. Even though I haven't. You care to an extent only you can, and that's fascinating. Thank you for everything you do.
The three of you, girls, mean so much to me. So so much. And I promise you I will always be here for you. Whatever you need, any time at all, whatever it is. I promise I'll be here.
Lix, shit, what is there to tell you that I haven't done already? What is there to tell you that is proper for the dash, hm? I think it's been little times in my life that I've felt so... Disconnected of everything. But at the same time so grounded and connected to someone. Whenever I'm with you, Lixie, I forget the world around. I forget everything. Forget my problems, and my achievements, forget where I am and who I am. I forget everything and all I know is that right there, in that moment with you, I'm all yours. And I would do absolutely anything you asked me just to see you smile, to hear you laugh. When I'm with you, nothing else matters. And nothing makes sense but at the same time my mind is so clear, everything is so clear, so obvious. So obvious that I belong to you and you belong to me. You pull me out of whatever hole I'm in and bring me back to the surface, you are my sun, my moon, my stars, my galaxies. You're a universe on your own and I can't help but want you all to myself. And that's fucking scary. But somehow so exciting. You give me faith. Faith in myself, in my future. You make me feel like there is a chance, and you know what? If there is one, even if it's my last one, I want to spend it on you. With you. I want you to be my chance. And l will work hard for it. Because I'm not willing to lose you, Lix. I'm not.
Sanie & Woongie, I have so many things to apologize for. I'm sorry for not putting enough effort. I'm sorry for not being there enough. I'm sorry for those days I lack words. I'm sorry for those times I can only offer cuddles. I'm sorry for not being able to help as I should. I'm sorry for not being what you need. I'm sorry for just not being. And I know you don't believe that's true, I know you don't think I lack, but the truth is that I can't help the way I feel inside. And I know you can't either. I know you can't help it when you're sad, when you think you're not enough. I know you can't help it when you feel you're letting people down. I know you can't help it when you feel you're not worthy, when you feel like you don't matter. But you know what I do believe? That we deserve better. I do believe that we're strong, capable. I do believe that we'll make it out and I do believe that we will be ok. I believe in us. I believe in you. And I promise you that I will work hard to make you believe it too. I'm not going anywhere. I'm not leaving. It doesn't matter how much you say you think you're a bother. It doesn't matter how much you think you're making me upset. It doesn't matter because I will hold you tight and I will not let you go. Things do get better, we just need to wait a little longer.
Last but not least, my beautiful babygirl, my princess, my little girl. I love you so so so much, did you know that? Caimie, my precious little sunshine, I would move mountains for you. Split oceans in half. I would bring down the moon for you, catch all the stars in a jar for you so you have your own sky in your room. I don't think you understand just how much you mean to me. I don't think you're aware of the power you hold. I love everything about you, from the way you get flustered and blush at the tiniest things I do to the way you smile so genuinely at my stories about work. I love the way you climb on my lap whenever we cuddle because that's your favorite spot. I love the way you rest your head on my chest to listen to my heartbeat. I love the way your hand fits in mine, and I love the way your lips feel in mines too. I love your soft touches, I love your small whimpers, I love your pretty moans. I love how one second you're screaming about how cute your doll in Animal Crossing looks and next second you're being a crackhead on the dash. I love taking care of you, telling you to go to bed, reminding you to drink water, calling you out when you're not paying attention in class. You are and will always be my little baby. And whoever wants to get with you will have to go over me first because I'm bit giving you away to the first fucker who thinks they've got a chance. I love you, princess. Forever.

P E R S O N A L I T Y
+ intelligent, protective, and kind
- sometimes too optimists, blunt, and emotional
atlas has been through a lot of hurt. however, unlike most people he hasnât let it change him. people take his kindness as a weakness but he seeâs it as a strength... that he wonât let anyone change him no matter how cruel they can be. he wants to believe that people arenât all bad, sometimes he tries a little too hard to believe that. but he isnât naive either when it came to what he expected from other people. the man isnât oblivious, he just likes to try to have hope. to not expect the worst from people until they give him no other choice to. sometimes, he also canât help himself and is a little blunt. he never does it to be rude or hurt anyoneâs feelings... itâs just he is protective and will call someone out on something in order to protect them. also the little pretentious writer in him sometimes makes him unable to stop himself from just saying certain things as they are.Â
H E A D C A N O N S
001. atlas henrik laveau never knew his father, not that he ever cared about that. the boy was a huge mamaâs boy. his mother was the strongest person he knew. growing up with only his mother, and his two step sisters. . . atlas grew up seeing the strength in women and couldnât be prouder of his family. 002. however, being the only boy, atlas did always want a little brother. and he found that in a young boy whose family lived near his. it started with him just being asked to watch the young boy (eric) but eventually turned into him adoring the kid like his little brother. his family and friends all know how atlas saw the young boy and welcomed him themselves as well. 003. atlas prided himself on learning as much as he could on anything and everything. about his world under the sea and the world above. human, vampires, werewolves, witches, etc. he wanted to be ready for when he moved to the land above, it was always part of his plan. plus, he wanted to help his hybrid best friend as much as he could. 004. when he was younger, atlasâ favourite thing had always been writing and telling stories. he was always a creative person and enjoyed sharing all of his ideas. due to this, atlas was known for always thinking outside the box. 005. he ended up going through a hard time when eric was killed. it had been a day that he was asked to go watch the young boy, but he couldnât do it. so ericâs parents moved their day around and stayed with him. atlas had finished his day early was was going to go surprise the boy and maybe offer to help out so the parents could do whatever else they could. however, when he arrived, he found the entire family had been murdered. atlas took it really hard and blamed himself. he even stopped talking for a couple of months. he spoke to NO ONE and the only person who could get some type of reaction out of him had been his best friend. 006. at the right age, atlas wasted no time in getting his ring so he could travel above land. he didnât make the move just yet, cause he wasnât fully ready to leave his family. but mars and him traded off on who was visiting who. he loved the land and wishes his family felt the same, but they loved the ocean too much. so he stayed for awhile longer before eventually making the move all together. though he does visit his family still. family is everything to the man. 007. heâs currently working at the gym as a swim instructor, but he only does that while working on his book. everything is looking well for him, he already has publishers who want to work with him. he just needs to make a choice and small changes to his book that he feels he didnât write correctly. heâs very excited about whatâs to come.
C O N N E C T I O N S
BEST FRIEND. these two grew up together and have always been close. theyâve always seen each other as family and donât keep secrets from one another. atlas knows he can tell mars anything and never be judged, just like she can do with him.  [ TAKEN ; marcelline ]
CLOSE FRIENDS. these would be the people he goes to that isnât mars. probably someone who is a little more like him. at least in the sense where they are more kind and forgiving compared to most of the people in town. they could meet when atlas got to town and kind of just hit it off. or just sometime since heâs been around and just grew close kinda quickly. i just want him to have a couple of people heâs really close with.  [ 1/2 (could be down for three) ; tabitha ]
CO-WORKER. ever hear of a work wife/husband? thatâs what this person is to atlas. they are very close and are always there to help each other. their other co-workers tease them about acting like a married couple at work, but it really is just a platonic friendship.  [ OPEN ; xx ]
EX GIRLFRIEND. i would really love one of those obvious jealous exes who broke up with their boyfriend due to him being so close to their best (girl) friend. so this person, whom atlas loved so much, really didnât like how close atlas was to mars and grew tired of people making assumptions about him and mars. it eventually got to the point of them telling atlas to pick between them and his best friend. they didnât realise how much atlas actually LOVED them. now, however, atlas canât see them the same and they act very bitter toward each other.  [ OPEN ; xx ]
CRUSH. someone atlas has a bit of a crush on. they donât need to return the feelings. this is just someone he really admires but never acts on his feelings because he doesnât want to ruin their friend ship. *bonus points though if they do return his feelings and they are thinking the same way he is. that they are worried about ruining the friendship too.  [ OPEN ; xx ]
EX BOYFRIEND. they were friends first and things kind of just happened. it was one of those relationships that just made sense. however, after a few months, this person decided they just wanted to be friends. while it hurt atlas, he understood and agreed. yet since then, the two are just awkward around each other. atlas still has a soft spot for this person and wishes they could actually be friends again.  [ OPEN ; xx ]Â
DISLIKE. atlas tried to get along with everyone, he really does. but this person just DOESNâT like him and atlas isnât too upset about it. they rub him the wrong way anyways. or maybe itâs vice versa. . . atlas canât stand them? they rub him the wrong way and he just CANâT see past it.   [ OPEN ; xx ]
