So we had a lot of 4halo moments today/yesterday but this one was my favorite (I’m gonna paraphrase slightly so this isn’t word-to-word):
Dapper, on a sign: Bye uncle Forever! Even if Dad won’t admit it, he’ll be the one who misses you the most!
Forever, who was very clearly looking at both signs: *turning to Richarlyson* Ooooo~
Bad, flustered after reading the sign: No, nO, NO, NO, NO! Ignore that! Ignore that!
Forever, probably lying: What?? What was written on the sign?? Oh, I didn’t see it!
Bad, also lying: It was- It was just- It was just something Dapper was trying to tell me about the weather!
And like, that’s cute by itself but what I think people didn’t hear is that before Bad has even finished lying about nonexistent rain, Forever goes and says “Ohhh, yeah, it’s hot in here, right?”
Which. I mean cmon.
Like. Cmon.

📞Wait a minute while I make you mine
Featuring: Ace x fem!reader
Warning: suggestive, mention of NSFW content, slightly angsty at the end lol
Summary : fun pool day with Whitebeard crew and the reader and Ace being awfully flirty.
Part.2. Part.3
The photo is found on Pinterest, credits to its owner
Note: this idea came up to me at work, enjoy my first short story!! 🫶🏻 part 2 maybe ?
Tumblr media
You had just changed into your new swimsuit that you bought few hours ago from the shops in the resorts. The little fabric was complimenting the curves of your body beautifully, leaving a little gasp even from between your own lips.
You smiled knowing someone else might also enjoy it. You pushed back your hair glancing one last time at the mirror with a satisfied smile. You grabbed your sunglasses and left them resting on top of your head.
Your close friend, who was one of the few nurses on the ship, called Livia, was waiting for you outside of the changing room. She glanced up at you and smiled.
-This is just so sexy.
She commented while making you turn and checking you out. You grinned and nudged her arm playfully. You blushed a little and intertwined her arm with yours. With your other hand you played with the gold necklace pending on your neck. You two started walking towards y’all fellow pirates.
-Right? I think the women had the perfect eye. Good thing I got it.
- She did, Ace is gonna loveeee it~
You rolled your eyes and gave her a quick glare before shyly smiling.
-I’m definitely not wearing this for this idiot. Im being hot for myself.
-Yeah, and I’m a man with heavy hairy balls.
Her answer earned a laugh out of you. She gazed at you with a floating teasing smirk, thinking it was cute how hard you were refuting your obvious crush on the infamous commander of the second division.
-I can already picture him drooling over you.
-He’s not the type to drool, you retorted with a frown.
-Right, he only drool over food. Okay then, he would blush and look away like you don’t exist while he has a raging boner.
-This version doesn’t so bad now.
You nodded quite satisfied with your friend storytelling abilities. She pushed her blond hair behind her shoulders and winked at you.
-I know. To be fair, y’all would’ve probably fucked already, but you deliberately chose to blue ball yourselves.
She said with a disapproving expression. You scoffed thinking it was quite funny how invested your friend was with your « love life ». Ace and you were kinda just friends… yeah?
-You are talking a lot for someone who hasn’t done a move on their crush for months. How’s you and Imani going?
-Imani..she-she’s just so gorgeous. I get super shy when I’m around her and she’s also like one of the top nurses on the ship so it would be inappropriate.
-You have been saying the same excuse for weeks.
You exclaimed exhausted with your blond friend. She looked at you with puppy eyes like she was about to reveal the best excuse in the cutest way.
-Yeah but you know what ?? She had those beautiful butterfly’s locks done at the last island we stopped and she looks even prettier. I’m hopeless. I have fallen for a goddess while I’m a commoner.
-You are being dramatic. Imani is gorgeous but so are you.
-Im a Pisces.
-Livia, that’s not an argument.
-Arent you the astrologer here?
-Yeah and what about it ?
-Tell me about Imani and I compatibility!
-Livy, I make sky map… and I have already done it, i told you it was a green light.
She removed her arm that was intertwined with yours and brought both of her hands to her face to hide her blushing cheeks.
-OMG!!? Can you imagine me going out with her?!
She asked with heart eyes and an almost perverted expression that almost made you frown in fear. You patted her back to help her calm down.
-Collect yourself, blood is almost coming down your nose.
You joked with a defeated chuckle. She nodded quickly while patting her hair on top of her head to gain some senses.
-Okay so about you and Ace-
-Oh look the guys are over there, you cut her off while running towards Marco who was sipping on some refreshers while speaking to some others men.
-Y/N! WAIT FOR ME!!
You heard her yell as she ran behind you. You crashed into Marco because you foot slipped on the water on the ground, making you lose control over your body. He sensed you and was quick to grab you and pull you up to your feet again.
-I thought we only had to say to kids not to run near pools ? He said while raising one of his eyebrows with a disapproving look.
You pulled you tongue at him and crossed your arms under your breast.
-Well, the water just could’ve been somewhere else.
-Y/N! ARE YOU OKAY! AHHH-
Livia ran towards you but a similar situation happened and she fell right into you. You groaned as the weight of her body crushed on yours. You pulled yourself on your elbows and gave her a bored look.
-Why are you running around a pool?
You asked while rubbing the back of your head that had just hit the hard floor.
-LIKE YOU’RE ONE TO TALK!!
She yelled at you as she pulled herself up of your body. Marco watched the scene with a chuckle and pulled his hands, offering them to both of you. You took one and chuckled.
-It’s so good to be able to relax a little bit, you exclaimed while stretching your arms, enjoying the way the sun was warming up you exposed skin.
-Let’s jump in the pool already, I’m sweating.
Livia complained as she grabbed her hair and pulled them up to allow some air to hit the back of her neck. You saw few of the men on the ship give her heart eyes. You chuckled knowing that Livia was probably the most lesbian girl you have ever knew and those guys could only hold into their fantasy. You truly hoped it would work out with her crush though.
Imani was a beautiful dark skinned women who was working hard to keep up with Whitebeards health as much she possibly could with of course the help of Marco. She was one of the popular member on the ship, known for her beauty and intelligence. So it wasn’t surprising to know that a lot of people liked and admired her.
-Yeah, enjoy it! Not everyone can enjoy the pool freely, Marco replied referring to him being a power holder. He suddenly snorted and he quickly excused himself while a chuckle left his lips.
-Whats wrong ? You asked curious of what he was laughing at.
He moved his head pointing behind you with his familiar smirk. You frowned confused and looked behind you, only to see your freckled friend trying his best to swim with a unicorn swimming ring, two orange arm floaties on each of his biceps and water googles. You couldn’t help but burst into a laugh.
You whipped the tears at the corner of your eyes from laughing. The view in front of you was so different from the cocky and confident man you knew.
-OI, ACE ! You look like a kid who’s learning how to swim!
You yelled while holding into your stomach. The tall man looked at you confused and a red blush tinted his freckled cheeks. He removed his googles to let them rest on top of his head.
-LEAVE ME ALONE !
He yelled back with an embarrassed frown.
-He’s so cute, you mumbled under your breath but loud enough for Marco and Livia to hear it.
-How about you join him?
Livia exclaimed while pushing your body into the water. You didn’t even have time to react that you felt your body entering the cold water of the pool. You fought back a little in the water as you were taken out totally in surprised. You finally pulled your head out of the water and pushed your soaked hair out of your view.
-LIVIA! What was that about ?! I almost lost my glasses.
You yelled at her slightly annoyed as you pushed your sunglasses at her. You definitely had water in your nose. She laughed at your slight frustrated expression. She threw your glasses to Marco, before jumping into the water too, splashing you , making water enter your eyes this time.
You waited for her to emerge out of the water to splash her eyes back with constant water waves.
-Im sorry, I’m sorry ! She pleaded while putting her hand up in defeat.
Marco shook his head wondering why two young adults like Livia and you were acting like total children.
-THAT WAS A GOOD ONE LIVIA! THANKS!
You heard Ace suddenly yell with his stupid grin. You smirked and started to swim towards him. You saw his eyes grow big when he realized that he was the one in disadvantage. He tried to « swim » away but some kids was pulling into the unicorn head of his swimring. So he was mostly fighting against sinking because of the kid.
You finally arrived next to him and looked up at him with mischievous eyes. Your propped yourself on his floater.
-Did the kid and you planned this ?
He asked a little bit annoyed but you could feel he was tense. You glared at the annoying kid and pulled his arms off of Aces unicorn.
-What do you think you’re doing?
You asked him seriously. He looked up at you, lips suddenly trembling. He quickly left while screaming for his mom. You looked back at Ace and started to laugh. You swam back to his floater and so your arms and chest were resting on the huge swimring.
His eyes travelled down to your breast and then to your lips but he looked away with a blush.
-Get off, you are gonna make me sink.
He said while gazing at your wet body once again and then at your eyes.
-I dont feel like it, you replied with a pout while tilting your head.
He rolled his eyes and he licked his lips as he brought his face closer to yours. He smiled with his familiar mischievous eyes that you loved so much. You felt butterfly in your stomach at the sudden proximity.
-You really like being a brat, huh?
You grinned and pushed back his head with you finger on his forehead.
-Maybe I do~
You retorted in a calm voice that came off more seductive than you intended to. You saw Ace’s eyes squinting slightly at you as he gave you his infamous smirk.
-Alright, then would you help me get out of the water?
-Already tired ?
-Yeah, I don’t have the thrill anymore to worry about sinking especially because of a kid or you.
-Pfff, like I would really sink a hottie like you.
-So now you think I’m hot?
-Yeah well, you are made of fire, you retorted with an obvious tone while furrowing your eyebrows. He looked at you speechless for few seconds before he shook his head and slowly started making his way outside of the the pool.
You laughed as you got off of his swim-ring and helped him by pulling him and swimming forwards. By the edge of the pool, Ace removed his unicorn with your help and quickly pushed himself outside the water. He sighed relieved as he walked slightly away.
-Thanks
-No worries~ Well I guess I will see you around.
You said while glancing at his tone body glistening with the water. The way his back muscles moved as he slightly turned to your direction. He looked over his shoulders as he was removing his arm floaties.
-Uh..yeah sure.
You waved at him with a smile and searched for Livia somewhere in this sea of people. He watched you walk away from him. He wished he proposed you to eat an ice cream and maybe talk somewhere in this big resort, maybe learn more about you if you allowed him to. But he wasn’t sure of how you would take it.
You were always big on being independent and it was something you had proud in. He didn’t even know if being in a relationship was even something you thought about. Maybe you were more about fucking and not talking to that person ever again, but as much as he wanted you, he wouldn’t break his own heart by having too much hope for something he couldn’t possibly have. You loving him is impossible.
He sighed as he felt a sudden heavy weight on his heart. His throat slightly chocked up. He shook away those thoughts and decided to just distract himself with his friends, the weather, other girls maybe too…

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I am working on a 50s Diner/Greaser AU one shot fanfic with Medic / Scout / Engineer. (I don't know if they have a official shipping name but I shall call it Defibrillator, I won't explain why) I drew these a while ago for Appeypie's DTIYS and based the visual inspiration on it. Greaser Medic has my heart. There's gonna be NSFW so be warned. Here is an excerpt from what I wrote. I will post the full fanfic on Ao3 when it's finished. The title will be: Milkshakes n' Motorbikes (Alternate title: Fries n' Fucks) Blurb: Usually all Henry cares about is his hair, his grooves and pretty ladies, but when he falls head over heels for a handsome waiter at his regular diner, his world turns upside down. It doesn’t take long before he tries to hook-up with him. If only his roommate wasn’t such a fucking moodkill. Guess, he has to make up for it somehow.
Medic - Henry
Scout - Jamie
Engineer - Jon
All in all, working as a carhop at a drive-thru diner definitely had it’s perks. On a Saturday like this, Jamie made good money simply by having a pretty face. It was fun, gliding around on his roller skates with a tray in each hand, and being able to show off. Sometimes people handed him five dollar bills to do a spin or a flip. Many girls left him large tips to flirt with him, while men usually whistled at his rather skimpy uniform and honked their horns as they passed him. He knew it was meant as a joke most of the time, but admittedly he liked the attention.
There was one particular guy, a regular, who stopped by almost daily. Jamie knew his order by heart. Large fries, an American burger and a chocolate shake with a cherry on top. His name was Henry and he was your typical leatherjacket wearing, cigarette smoking greaser. A total bad boy. Normally, Jamie tried to stay away from guys like that but he seemed genuinely interested. Whenever he came to his window, he slipped a note into his pocket. Little messages scribbled on napkins, asking for his phone number and if he wanted to go on a date. It was cute and romantic and undeniably gave him butterflies. That’s why he had agreed to meet up with him several times over the past few weeks or so. Of course, it didn’t take long before they started going out. During his break they made-out behind the dumpsters, before Jamie had to get back to work. It always left him hungry for more. Just thinking about how he would shove his hands under his apron and pull his pants down, made him blush. Today, Henry would pick him up with his car - a baby blue Volkswagen with red padding and a convertible sunroof. He seriously couldn’t wait for his shift to end. Henry had invited him over to his house to watch a movie. They would cuddle up under a big blanket and kiss and afterwards, who knows. Perhaps it was time for the next step.
Fifteen minutes later, he heard a roaring engine on the parking lot in front of the diner. That was his sign to come out. He grabbed his things and pulled up to the car window with a cheeky smile.
“Welcome to Fried Batter. Can I take your order?”, he said in his best waiter-voice.
Henry played along. “I would like your hottest chick, please.”, he winked.
“Coming right up.”
With a click the door opened and Jamie climbed onto his seat, giggling. As soon as he was buckled in, Henry revved the engine once more and cut the corner with spinning tires. On the way home he rolled down the windows and blasted loud rock music through the radio. They sang along and laughed and when they finally backed into the small open space of a workshop Jamie could barely contain his excitement. Henry stopped to look at him and put a hand on his inner thigh, brushing against his soft, exposed skin with the tips of his fingers.
“Here we are.”

Have you seen the 1st two double greetings that are out already?? 👀
Kai & Yul
Ally & Hunter
Still waiting patiently for more, though I know they'll take longer since these cost $180 apparently? And not everybody has that kind of cash.. 😅
But when they do, I'm really hoping to see more fans think outside the box and take to the chance to give us more pairings of characters from seasons 1 & 2 who've never even met! And I don't just mean within All-Stars either. I wanna see Aiden & Dan, Maggy & Drew, Gabby & Karol, Ashley & Rosa, Fiore & Lake, Ally & Dan, Connor & Lill, Alec with Tess, Rosa or Lake- Just- give us something new! Make fans' dreams of seeing their rarepair friendships (or romance ships) come true! Even if only for less than a minute.
gonna combine two of your greeting asks here!
Tumblr media
this is a hilarious screenshot to have out of context, ngl.
same with the intro to the greeting-- iconic. i'm glad that Kai is as done with Yul as ever. on one hand, if Kai is living in the woods, i don't know why he needs to tie himself to human conceptions of wealth and status. on the other hand, if he has no job, i could see grabbing a quick buck with which to pick up food or supplies could be very handy.
imagine if these two were on the Cyan team instead of... Tom and Aiden, I guess (as the only two guys on that team). that would be so chaotic. i imagine Kai and Gabby would get along well, while Ellie would absolutely kick Yul's ass. Ellie not making merge robbed us of that.
Tumblr media
i can see why they'd make a popular streaming channel, because this clip was cute as hell. i like how quickly they trade (joking) insults with each other. they're always on the same page, no matter how quickly the topic of conversation changes.
kind of confusing that Ally didn't already have sponsors, though...? at least she has her onlyfans ;) (/j) (of course it was ally's onlyfans that requested this greeting lmao)
honestly, having a sort of "speed dating" (not literally) kind of show with most of/all of the contestants would make a really interesting miniseries. i don't know how it would happen, but if ONC made episodes that were basically just like eight of these double greetings back to back (maybe with a bit of plot interconnecting them), i'm sure fans would eat it up.
it would also be really interesting to combine contestants with hosts. like, what would even happen if you got Trevor and Grett in a greeting with just each other...?
youtube
Forgot about this Grett greeting. "Do you know how boring those early episodes would've been if I *wasn't* slaying the competition?? I'm still proud of taking out Drew early on~ 😏" Understandable but still Fuck You Grett! 😤
Grett is such a fun villain character. i love how she does fully step up to the plate as a role, so she's not as serious about being mean as someone like Riya or Yul. plus, if she hadn't stepped up to stop the men's alliance, Miriam probably would have been eliminated, and then who knows who would have won?
(of course, i guess there are decent odds it could have been Alec. uh oh, now i've given you another reason to be mad at Grett /j)
Drew is a cutie, though, so i understand your want for revenge.
youtube
Here's a Will greeting from the same user - Hey it finally came full circle! First it was Ashley with a Will plushie, now Will with an Ashley plushie~ ^_^
moving in immediately with someone you just met on a reality show is craaaaaaaaazy. although, they're clearly very happy with each other, so if they were able to tell that they're just soulmates, then good for them!
the Ashley plushie is very cute. i wonder how much ONC would make if they did sell plushies of their characters. couldn't cost more than buying a greeting, right?

hi there! i'm wondering, what is your take on perrin and dain bornhald? i know those two have like five-ish minutes of screentime all season with about 30 seconds of that in the finale, but i can't get them out of my head. they have such an interesting dynamic and now that it's more complex than in the books (perrin did actually kill dain's father and dain sees it) i'm fascinated to see them reunite.
(also i know you probably don't take requests but it would be fun to see a gifset of them too. for...reasons.)
my take is that it is TASTY!!!! it is DELICIOUS!!! when dain's casting was announced i was like "i bet simple-minded cretins will ship him with perrin now that they are BOTH hot boys in the show, but you won't catch ME shipping anybody with whitecloaks, let ALONE poor perrin!" and now joke's on me, i'm a simple-minded cretin and i am shipping them HARD! but mostly in an "i love mess" type of way rather than an "i legitimately think they should and want them to get together" type of way. although i would not be opposed to a post-last-battle scenario of dain saying "fuck the whitecloaks" and leaving to become perrin's househusband in the two rivers! okay, faile probably wouldn't be into polyamory, but there WAS also that time in TSR when she was like "perrin why don't you go into rand's bedroom alone in the middle of the night and i'll see you in the morning and you can tell me all about it ;)" so maybe she would be down as long as the other person isn't berelain jfkgh
anyway! there were Vibes in their like 4 scenes. mostly on dain's end, just going around calling perrin by a cute nickname okay sir you want to fuck him we get it. dain is gay and homophobic and has a giant crush on perrin that he doesn't know how to deal with, and perrin is oblivious that any of this is happening. and then they had a brief Battle Couple moment in ep8 and i was like
Tumblr media
(genuinely i'm pretty sure i did clap my hand to my forehead because i could FEEL myself succumbing fully to the ship in that moment haha it was a powerful moment!)
and THEN!!!! perrin violently (and SO justifiably, not that dain knows or would believe it) murders dain's dad right in front of him!! and dain fucking loses it!! has to be dragged away while screaming for perrin's blood!! TASTY!! DELICIOUS!!!! move over rand/gawyn, we've got a new "you killed my parent and i will not rest until i run you through with my sword in every sense of the phrase because i also want to fuck you so bad it makes me look stupid" ship in town. and i can't WAIT to see what goes down between them in season 3!
and finally, you're in luck because i already was leaning towards making a gifset of them haha it was floating kinda far down on the to-gif list 2x08 gave me but now that you've gotten me thinking about their dynamic again it's bumped up towards the top, so i might possibly do it tomorrow!

ugh my wired headphones are still hurting my head >:(
anyway
s3 ep2 huntara
ahahah I love this one
(if you're new here: i'm rewatching She-Ra for fic-writing purposes, and live-blogging my way through them making commentary and jokes and side notes about random shit. bc this is a REwatch there are many references to later plot points)
Tumblr media
is that the Beta Kindergarten
(man I've been making a lot of Steven Universe references in these lately, but yeah I can't look at sandstone slot canyons without thinking "hrr hrr where's Jasper")
(wait has a Jasper cosplayer actually taken photos in one of these in like Utah? a quick image search says no. damn.)
Tumblr media
how many times did I look at this establishing shot before I realized this part of the Fright Zone is the ruins of a ginormous spaceship
ALSO "day 135"? I noted yesterday that someone working on the show said sOMEWHERE that each season is about a year and I was like "ehhhh" but I guess that's not far off.
That makes the whole catradora arc even more angsty tbh. For some reason I thought the whole show took place over like a single year or so. But FOUR OR FIVE YEARS?? they pined for each other while trying to murder each other for MULTIPLE YEARS????
Tumblr media
awwwwww
Listen. I love this ship. I'm always weak for "complete asshole with tough act is soft for one (1) person"
(tho lemme tell you. do not actually date those dudes irl. *sigh*)
Tumblr media
why did so many 80's cartoons have extremely unrealistic quicksand scenes tho
Tumblr media
gdi adora
The Crimson Waste is actually just a western bar full of furries. But seriously designing the characters in the bar must've been hella fun
Tumblr media
AAHAHAAHH Adora being so, so blatantly gay for Huntara is one of my fave things
Did they need to establish that Adora is into women? Pfft, no. Did they still decide to show us Adora being absolutely smitten on sight for an older, big, buff, badass, butchy lady? YES.
Tumblr media
Doesn't hurt that she looks likes this lol
Tumblr media
like it's the least subtle thing on EARTH i love it so much
oh no now I want to look up fics
Tumblr media
18 of them are explicit. well. I'm just gonna. leave that tab open.
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
ADORA. YOU COCKBLOCKED HER. RUDE.
lol there's a moment where Glimmer and Bow are like "ha ha we need to talk amongst ourselves" and turns around and Adora is still just staring at Huntara with googly eyes without noticing what Bow even said and lemme tell you, I've been that fucking obvious and oblivious
Huntara literally is like "oh my god you kids are gonna end up DEAD without me. FINE." Meanwhile, Adora:
Tumblr media
Plot plot Huntara leads them to a trap and they get hit with tranquilizer darts and dropped into a pit.
Tumblr media
that's just a nice shot tbh
Tumblr media
EAT SOME DAMN SOUP your girlfriend spent TIME on that
Tumblr media
she just refuses to be afraid of him
Anyway yeah this is when we find out he's just a clone of Horde Prime the Big Baddy of the series, Hordak is a "defective" clone, he was sent to "the front lines" to die and fell through a portal into Etheria. "with nothing but a broken ship, I built an empire..." the whole point of the portal is to bring Horde Prime through, which means that's what he was doing when he tried before and ended up with A Magic Baby (Adora) instead.
The animation in the flashback is clearly inspired by Lotte Reiniger which is super cool??
Back to the Crimson Waste, they've gotten themselves out of the hole, and Adora's upset because the whole point of this mission is her getting more info about Mara with the hopes of understanding her own past better
Tumblr media
she's RIGHT
Tumblr media
"...at least to me..."
Tumblr media
LISTEN TO YOUR CUTE NERDY GIRLFRIEND YOU EMO BASTARD
She makes him a nice techy exoskeleton armor thingie
Tumblr media
that's a start but c'mon I know you can do better than that
lolol the recorder baby critter KICKS HIM in an obvious "dude really????"
Tumblr media
look at him!!! AAHAHAH
Tumblr media
i'm gonna go over the image limit and tumblr's gonna cut me off and make me reblog this any minute now but this episode is jUST TOO GOOD
"I like being friends with you, too" ;_;
Huntara's "friends" make fun of her for being a softie while she swings the She-Ra sword around and then Glimmer drops in wooo
Tumblr media
yeah I know this is a fight scene but eheheheh
Tumblr media
and then they banged
okay they kept fighting but like, c'mon
Tumblr media Tumblr media
the "sword point under the chin" thing is just so good and I loved the way they did the angles here
OH SHIT I forgot Huntara had heard of She-Ra
Tumblr media Tumblr media
OH HO HO HOW THE TURN TABLES
Anyway Huntara does her little speech about how she also used to be a Horde soldier but left because Hordak was such a dick to his soldiers. "you would know, you were one of us."
Tumblr media
called THE FUCK OUT
Tumblr media
Huntara does her little "you can't defeat the Horde alone even if you're She-Ra" and she responds with "yah I'm not alone tho"
but also that shot is unnecessarily hot
....i've hit the image limit with two minutes to spare so I went back and deleted one because
Tumblr media
hggghh
(not gonna get into how Shadow Weaver's face-touching thing is what made Adora do it here but yeah)
Huntara tells her minions to get lost, admits that the war scared the shit out of her and that's why she ran, but she knows that's bullshit and she promises to help Adora stop the war :D and then leads them to the place they were originally looking for: the ruins of Mara's ship!
AND EPISODE OVER
(gonna...see if any of those fics are any good 👀)

his loss
fandom/ship: stranger things, elmax
summary: el has been looking forward to a date with a boy from her school all week. however, she’s starting to believe that maybe it’s not happening after all, seeing as she’s been waiting in a booth for him for 45 minutes. just as she’s about to give up and go home, though, someone DOES slide into the booth- just not the person she was expecting.
genre: one-shot, fluff
warnings: swearing, aged-up party (16-17), intentional lowercase
word count: 1,465
el looked up hopefully at the door as the little bell chimed, only to put her head back down in disappointment when she didn’t recognize the face.
el had been sitting in a booth in the corner of the small diner for 45 minutes now. tonight was supposed to be HER night. a boy from school that she thought was cute had FINALLY asked her out, and they were supposed to have dinner and a movie. however, he was supposed to meet her at the diner 45 minutes ago, and the movie started in 15, and there was no sign of him.
el sighed and leaned back in her seat, pondering what had gone wrong. why didn’t he show up? it made no sense. he WAS interested in her, wasn’t he? i mean, why else would he have asked her out? however, there was a little nagging voice at the back of el’s mind telling her that this might just be something she missed. el missed things sometimes- social cues, sarcasm. there had been times where she had thought someone was serious and it turned out that they absolutely were not. this “missing things” thing had gotten el bullied quite a bit at school. people were always making fun of her for it. 
but this boy was different, wasn’t he? he always seemed sincere enough. he laughed a lot around el, but that was just because he liked joking around. right? and granted, he had never really approached el without his group of friends (who, in el’s opinion, weren’t very nice), but that’s just because he was social. 
right?
el looked down at her lap, blinking back tears. she shook her head and reached for her jacket to put it back on. this was stupid. stupid, stupid, stupid-
“hey.”
el looked up. there was a kind-looking girl standing in front of her, smiling kindly. she had flaming red hair and beautiful blue eyes. god, she was-
“pretty,” el breathed out. the girl raised an eyebrow and cocked her head.
“sorry?” she said. “didn’t catch that.”
el quickly shook her head, and looked back down, pulling her jacket on.
“wait!”
the girl sat down across from her.
“i’m max,” she said. “i’ve been here for a little bit, just doing some homework. i don’t mean to come across as a stalker or anything, but i saw you and you look like you’ve been waiting for someone. are you?”
el snorted and shook her head.
“i thought i was,” she muttered. max frowned.
“okay, well whoever didn’t show up is an asshole,” she said. “i mean, come on, you’re adorable and you seem sweet and kind and funny. who the fuck WOULDN’T show up?”
“a boy.”
now it was max’s turn to snort.
“there was your first mistake,” she said with a laugh. el giggled a little. “hey, what’s your name?”
“el.”
“el,” max repeated. “that’s really pretty. just like you.” el smiled and blushed lightly.
“thank you,” she said. “i’m glad you think so.”
“hey. it’s his loss.”
el looked up at max, tears brimming her eyes. max smiled slightly and took her hand, giving it a squeeze.
“his loss,” max murmured. 
el looked down at her lap as a single tear slipped down her face. sure. his loss.
“come on.”
max stood up and held out her hand. el looked up and raised an eyebrow.
“let’s get out of here,” max said, gesturing for el to take her hand. el was a bit hesitant. what if max was just like everyone else? but there was something about max’s smile- it seemed so genuine. after a moment of debating in her head, el took max’s hand and stood up. max took a tissue from her pocket and wiped el’s face, then smiled. “let’s go do something fun, okay? anything you want. there’s more to life than stupid boys, after all.”
el nodded and smiled a little as max grinned and pulled her towards the door.
“what do you want to do?” max asked, taking out her keys and unlocking her car. el shrugged. “well, what were you guys going to do tonight after dinner?”
“go to a movie.”
“boring!” max said in a sing-song voice. “come on, let’s go on an adventure.”
el paused outside the passenger-side door and stared at max.
“you okay?”
“not joking?” el asked.
hearing that broke max’s heart. she gave el the sincerest look she could.
“i am absolutely NOT joking,” she said. “i want to spend time with you. let’s go.”
el nodded and, taking a deep breath, stepped into max’s car.
max turned the key and handed el her phone.
“here,” she said, pulling up spotify, “put on any music you like.”
el took the phone and stared at it for a second. what music did she like? she’d listened to plenty of things, but didn’t really have a specific style. after thinking for a second, she started playing “grace kelly”.
“oh, YES!” max exclaimed as she pulled out of the parking lot. “good ass song, el!”
el giggled as max started singing along with the lyrics. she had never felt this comfortable around anyone, and certainly not this quickly. after a second, she joined in singing, too.
el looked out the window as max pulled into a parking lot. her eyes widened and she turned to max with excitement. they were at their local arcade, which had tons of games, claw machines, prizes, and a photo booth.
“ever been here?” max asked, putting the car in park. el shook her head.
“no. i’ve always wanted to go, though.”
“well, let’s go spend way too much money playing a ton of rigged games, shall we?”
el laughed and nodded excitedly, hopping out of the car. max smiled after her. she was too cute. how on earth could anyone possibly stand her up?
max stepped out of the car and was immediately pulled up by el, who had grabbed her hand.
“come on!” el said. max laughed and the two girls ran hand-in-hand into the arcade.
el stopped and gazed around in wonder at all the colorful lights and games the second they stepped through the door. max laughed and smiled at her star-struck reaction.
“well don’t just stand there, let’s go!” max said.
el and max ran from game to game for over an hour. against el’s protests, max paid for everything (”come on, let me treat you right for a night!”). they found out quickly that el was somehow a master at ski-ball.
“how are you getting it in the highest one EVERY TIME?” max groaned, as el laughed and pumped her fists in the air, another hundred tickets spitting out of the machine.
“magic,” el said, grinning and scrunching up her eyes. max laughed. she was too cute.
“how about we go exchange those tickets for some cheap ass prizes that will break or rip in about a week?” max offered. el nodded, and the two girls headed to the prize counter, dumping all their tickets down. they picked out candy, some temporary tattoos, stickers, plastic dinosaurs, and el got a pair of chattering teeth that she couldn’t stop laughing at. she was still laughing at them as they got back into max’s car, cranking up the music and singing along as they drove with the windows down.
max pulled up to el’s house and put the car in park. “here you are, princess.” she regretted the words almost as soon as they came out of her mouth. that was WAY too much. wasn’t it? el, meanwhile, was screaming instead at her comment. she took a breath. 
“can- can we do this again?”
max looked up and smiled, nodding quickly. 
“absolutely! of COURSE we can!” she exclaimed. “el, tonight was so much fun. you’re truly incredible, don’t let ANYONE make you think differently.”
el smiled and blushed, turning away and staring at her lap. the tension between the two of them was electric.
after a minute, max cleared her throat. 
“well,” she said, “um, i don’t want your parents thinking you got kidnapped or anything, so-”
el turned back and flicked her eyes to max’s lips, then back up again. her heart pounding, she leaned in closer. max’s eyes widened, but she smirked and raised and eyebrow as she said, “what’s up?”
“there’s more to life than stupid boys, right?” el murmured. 
max’s gaze settled on el’s lips, and she nodded slowly. “uh, yeah. yeah, there’s a lot more.”
“like what?” el said softly.
max cleared her throat nervously.
“like girls.”
and with that, the two leaned in to each other and pressed their lips together, sparks flying like neither of them had ever felt before.
yeah, there was a lot more to life than stupid boys.

alright folks, medium paced and moderately tarnished liveblog time, TLOVM S1, ep 7!
oh percy was that kind of student huh. of course he was. i want to ruffle his lil hair.
wait fuck i should be paying attention, i’ve been vaguely wondering what residuum was ever since beau used it to drug a giant baby (that’s a fun C2 reference for anyone not in the know ;) ;) we were also all very shocked ;) )
yo prof i feel like they should at least have some PPE if you’re gonna be exploding rocks in their hands
fucking hell they’re both so baby. so smol. 
Love that this conversation is (very well done) but also essentially: “so percy.... what the fuck is up with you... and also... what IS that....” *points at gun* Percy: *Source: it came to me in a dream.png*.
me: aw keyleth is doing disney princess things. 5 minutes later: oh nope, thats fire. ... guess that could also be disney princess things.
did vax.. just.. pour ale on a fire to put it out? Does that work? Isn’t that- *torn between google and science experiments*
*whistles through teeth* Veeex........ *sees Vax take Keyleth’s side and Vex’s expression* oH p. oh boy.
Scanlan why would you make a joke about too-close-siblings with the peak of codependent sibling relationships in stabbing range.
knowing what I know about campaign 1 has me... so nervous about this conversation... like i know how this episode is gonna go, but by god the character implications. stop insulting scanlan like that cmon :(
what does it say about me that I heard Sam’s voice say “master” and immediately expected “debater” right after.
I find it so funny that of everyone besides Percy/Vax, Vex seems to be closest to Scanlan so far. Like its good, I like their relationship a lot so far, but also like, damn Vex, you’re that allergic to expressing emotions/affections like a regular person huh. 
this is a cute ditty. im liking scanlan, honestly.
HEY THEY’RE PLAYING THE THING IN THE THING ABOUT THE THING HEY LOOK HEY 
"who made this decison" "... you." "no one ever listen to me again." me the fuck too. i feel it.
aw vex, bonding the best way she knows how: talking about sibling relationships. ... and... scanlan.
Scanlan don’t drop your belongings, don’t you want them back? You don’t want to leave your anal beads do you???
(a moment of silence to reflect on how i got to a point where i’m typing that out)
S C AN BOOOOO
(side note: im having a LOT of fun trying to pick out what the DnD equivalents to things would be)
Groggo.... ragin... nice. VM teamwork. nice. :)
aw man :( not nice :( awww man :(
oh fuck, they end it there?
overall:
- Genuinely enjoyed Scanlan here. Juuuust the right mix of unsure and VERY sure and bravado and panic. Excellent. Also his entire rampage through the house was beautifully paced. excellent.
- hmmmmm. might just be sleep deprivation but some of the dialogue... wasn’t quite landing for me, beyond Scanlan’s bits. Can’t quite put a finger on it- not bad, but.... something. VM felt a little more.... tropey? And I can’t pinpoint why.
- Also I’ll admit it here: knowing about Perc’ahlia makes me maaarginally less invested in their conversations? Similarly with Vaxleth, to an extent. This has less to do with the specific ships and more just.... me, and romantic pairings in shows. I like these ships! And characters! They’re fun, and good, but I might be a lil more *grabby hands* at other dynamics.
- Seeing DnD turn mechanics into animated action sequences is genuinely so neat. I kept thinking about what would be an action, what wouldn’t. And also being mildly concerned they didn’t seem to have a long rest? Did everyone get their spells back? If they rested why didn’t Archie wipe the blood off his mouth? Archie just wipe the blood of your mouth ple ase.
- as always, living for characters just Doing Shit in the background of shots. Its my favorite.
- SCANBOOOOOOOOOO

Hickeys and shattered hearts / Maria Hill x Stark!reader / Natasha x Stark!reader
A/N:This one's kinda sad but also kinda cute idk
Warning: Light angst, cursing ofc.
дорогой - Sweetheart
---------------------🕸🕷----------------------
You were new to the Avenfers despite being Tony Starks sister. They didn't know he had a sister because he never told them per your request. And only introduced yourself during the battle of New York showing up in an iron suit.
Although you had already worked for Shield even before Tony did as an agent. You helped him build some of his suits, even made your own
Tony and you were slightly different from each other with you being more on the nicer and sweeter side but still had his wit and sass.
You got along with the rest of them team really well, especially with a certain red headed assassin. Natasha had gotten to like you a lot after a few years of being colleagues, though was a complete wreck at asking you out.
Now you and the Avengers are in Sokovia battling with Ultron and his iron legion alongside new additions. Pietro and Wanda Maximoff.
"So when do you think help is on the way." You blasted through the robots that were lined up. "Any minute now cavalry."
"I didn't say we should leave.." You hear Natasha as you land to the ground. "There's worse ways to go." She finishes, you open your mask to breath a little better. "This isn't exactly how I planned mine to be." You said taking a few deep breaths.
"Where else am I gonna get a view like this." She motioned about the floating country. "Only once in a lifetime." You try to see through the smoke.
"I hope you like the view Romanoff. It's about to get better." Fury says through the coms as the helicarrier emerges up from the clouds and smoke. "Nice right? Pulled her out of mothballs with a couple of old friends. She's dusty but she'll do."
"Fury you son of a bitch." You and Steve say as you looked in awe at the flying ship. "Oh, you two kiss your mother with that mouth?"
"I wouldn't really call her my mother, but yes I do kiss her with my mouth." You grinned as mask closed again ready for the second wave. Nat didn't know you were in a relatiowith someone only till a few weeks ago.
You were searching up on new technology to improve you and you brothers suits. Recently discovering about Nanotechnology, after days of research you've only managed to create a protoype for only the helmet.
You heard the door knock and said out a come in. "Hey, Y/N have you seen Bruce?" Natasha came in as you still had on the mask thst only reached the bottom of your neck.
"No sorry, haven't seen him since like an hour ago. Maybe he's in his room I guess." You shrugged as the mask slowly disappeared like it was dissolving from your face.
"Whoah how'd you do that you fuckin wizard or something." Nat looked at you surprised. "Cool right?" You grinned at her as you put the tech on a mannequin.
"I'll go find him, sorry to bother you." She smiled a little. "Yeah no problem." You focused on the computer. She was nearly out of the room when she noticed a bruise on the side of your neck.
Once you turned around a little it showed more purple and red spots on your neck. "Y/N.." She trailed as you looked up at her. "Yeah?"
"What happened to." She motioned to her neck and you looked at her in confusion. "Huh? Why? Is there something wrong?" You asked still confused.
"Look at the mirror." Her tone laced with a hint of jealously. "I don't what's- Oh!" You cut off your own sentence when you saw you reflection in the mirror. Red and purple marks scattered on your neck.
"Oh my god, I'm so sorry you had to see that!" Shrieking you activated the mask again hide them and your embarrassed face.
You hit your head on palm of your habd a few times chanting to yourself that you were stupid to not notice. "Look, it's ok, I've seen worse. Do you want me to help you with it?" Nat brushed of the feeling in the pit of her stomach.
"No no, I don't want to take away more time from you. I can just cover this up with some make up." The front of the mask opened as you had a sorry smile for her. But Natasha wanted to stay longer, she wanted to stay with you.
"Ok just, just call me if you need anything." She said as you let out a final apology and a thank you. "F.R.I.D.A.Y, please call Agent Hill immediately please." You command the A.I thingking that the ex russian spy was gone.
"What is it Stark? Somethibg happened?" Maria said from the other line. Natasha hid behind a wall to eavesdrop, yes it was wrong, but she just wanted an answer to her question.
"Don't Stark me Hill, you know what exactly happened." You spat before sending a photo to her. "I can't believe you didn't tell me before I left!" You sighed running a hand through your hair.
"I don't get what- Oh, Oh!" Maria stopped midway when she saw the photo you sent. "Well you didn't exactly say anything when we were-" "Don't you dare finish that sentence Hill or I will slap you across the face." You threatened through gritted teeth.
Natasha left not needing and not wanting to hear your conversation. She only asked for Bruce to have an excuse to see you.
Now she's left to go to the gym to blow off some steam and to avoid her heart from shattering entirely.
"I think I know who you're talking about. You two together the whole night at the party right?" Clint said as he smirked at you as you flew past him.
"You're seeing someone and you didn't tell me? I feel betrayed- I am betrayed." Tony sounded genuinely upset over the fact that Clint new and not him.
"We agreed not to tell anyone, and that anyone including you brother." You said matter of factly.
You saw Clint rushing behind a rock with a little boy trying to get to cover from the iron legion who were about to rain bullets on them.
Also noticing a blue and silver trail speeding towards them, you land right infront of Pietro and Clint shielding the three from the bullets, after they were done it was your turn to start beaming at them.
"What you didn't see that coming?" Opening the front of your mask to smirk at Pietro who looked at you like you were crazy.
"After this Fury, I'm gonna take a break. I've seen enough robots for the year. Person I am seeing you owe me a date." You say taking down a few more robots.
"I am going to pretend I didn't see her nod her head and smile. Stark you two have sone explaining to do before any dates will happen." Fury eyed Maria giving the 'Really? You two?' look.
The three of you got on to one of the ships to the helicarrier. "I'm sorry for what's about to happen." You apologetically glance at Pietro about Sokovia.
"Not exactly the way I wanted my chapter to end, but I guess it's something. This is where my family was made, this was also where it was destroyed, and where my twin and I made into well.. Whatever we are." His thick accent following through every word..
After the battle with Ultron, the civilians were given the help that they needed. "Having fun staring at the wall? It's an interesting wall don't get me wrong." You smiled as you walked towards Natasha.
"What'd you call me for? You need help finding Bruce again?" You asl as she shook her head turning to fully look at you.
"Not really, I just wanted to tell you something." Nat looked nervous which surprised you for the very first time. "It's about you."
"Me?" You pointed to yourself. "I- jesus christ this is harder than I thought." Nat let out a heavy sigh as you put a hand on her shoulder. "Hey its ok, take your time." You reassured her.
"I like you." She knew that you knew what it meant and was expecting to take your hand of her shoulder but you didn't. "I'm sorry Nat I really am, you're an amazing person."
"I know you can't, that's why I'm telling you this to let it out of my chest." Sadness was evident in her tone but she had to accept the fact the you can't love her back.
"I'll go beat up Hill if she hurts you." Nat joked as you pushed her shouler lightly. "We still friends?" You mumble as you pulled her to a hug.
She reciprocated by wrapping her arms around you. "Always." She said against your shoulder. "I better not find you downing a bottle of vodka later." You threatened as she just chuckled.
"I'll try not to." She says as you pulled away from the hug to glare at her. "No promises дорогой." She playfully smirked at you.
Natasha swore to herself to be there for you until the end. Not as lovers but as friends. Always and forever
Natasha left with Steve because they were evaluating the new recuits for the Avengers, she asked you if you wanted to come with her but you declined saying you were gonna meet with someone.
"Hey.." Maria said as she leaned against a wall seeing you walk down the halls. "Hi, were you waiting for me?" You ask as you walked closer to the Agent.
"No I wasn't." She simply replied as she looked at you and smiled "Really? Cause you looked like you were waiting for me." You raised a brow at her staring at hers, cold blue eyes thst somehow radiated warmth whenever she looked at you.
"Maybe I was maybe I wasn't." She smirked at you causing you to roll your eyes by her answer. "What were you doing before going here?" She asked as you two walked together.
"Oh I jusst rejected someone." You sighed rethingking what happened earlier. "Was it Natasha?" Maria says non chalanty.
You looked at her with a 'how the fuck.' face. "How the fuck did you know?" Your eyes wide as they can be. "I've known for a while know. At first I was worried about it."
"Oh yeah? Why so?" "Because I love you and you love me, simple as that." She gave a quick peck before walking ahead of your blushing face.
"Atleast kiss me properly Agent." You caught up to her and pulled her down for a proper kiss, instinctively placing her hand on your waist.
You pulled away as Maria was about to deepen in. "Although I'd love to but I only said for a proper kiss." Now it was your turn to give her quick peck before walking ahead of her.
"This so very cringey but also so cute at the same time." Coulson solighed as he saw the whole thing happen.

Okay, I've given TCBOB a second watch, now for my big disorganized assorted thoughts post!!
Not really sure where to start, so I'll just say that the character dynamics were easily the best part of the show for me. I love watching these characters interact, it's a blast.
I spent 95% of my high school years homeschooled, and I barely did any theatre (choir, yes, theatre, not so much). So with that in mind, I think that Bethanne and Eric were the two most relatable characters to me. I think even if you take away the high school theatre stuff from the show, the gist of their characters is still there. And hey, I can relate to both "oh dear god, i have no clue what i'm gonna be" and "feelings are the worst, so what if i just Didn't".
I think Jean still ended up being my fave from a personal standpoint tho, she's great. I love her dynamic with Max (i'm not sure if they were intending to write in ship tease for them, but i certainly got that vibe at some points. whatever the case, really endearing friendship), Body Language was an incredibly fun and charming song, and her weird Thing for Theo was hilarious. I love one (1) jaded single threat dancer with questionable tastes in men.
This may be my favorite Clark soundtrack yet, every song was a banger. I loved the whistling in Chill, and the vocal warm-up section of Professional, I think they really gave those songs a strong identity. Alex's interludes (the "tony mango wants to thank you for all your work today..." bits, idk if they have names) are really great, I love how each one gets progressively faster and I hope they'll be on the cast album. As I said, Body Language was a fun and charming little bop. All of Cole and Bethanne's songs were really sweet, their budding romance was just really cute and interesting in general. I could go on, but this post'll be long enough as is. In short, great soundtrack, beats Spies by an absolute mile.
Two kinda nitpicky things that I do sorta hope get changed down the line, 1. Let Cole be present for the end of the party when Theo gets kicked out (just kinda felt weird that she was the only one not present imo), and 2. Let us learn the surnames of more than three characters, please.
On the subject of names, why are Joshua and Estelle just called "Freshman #1" and "Freshman #2" in the credits anyway? They have names, and they only go nameless for like the first 20-30 minutes.
🎵 "THAT'S ABSOLUTELY A FUCKING LIIIIIIE" 🎵
Garrett my beloved <3
Subtle joke that I thought was really clever, Estelle saying "I don't wanna play one of those characters that shows up and then disappears for the rest of the act", and then she and Joshua proceed to disappear for the rest of the act.
...I feel like I had more things to say, but my mind has just completely drawn a blank, whoops. Whatever the case, loved the show, can't wait to see how it evolves down the line!

finished tsr!! stray thoughts on the last portion (90% of them silly, you all know by now the kinds of observations i tend to make):
rand when he finds out about polyamory: icarly interesting.jpg
mat was standing right with rand during this discovery and was equally stunned/fascinated #PutMatInThePolycule
i love rhuarc, amys, and lian’s relationship 🥺 "amys and lian, lying on either side of rhuarc and smiling at each other almost as much as at their husband” 🥺🥺
i’m not saying that mat rolling his eyes at rand behind aviendha’s back while she’s lecturing him is the same energy as lian making a snarky joke about rhuarc under her breath to amys, but........ #PutMatInThePolycule
dying over rand’s accidental girlfriend acquisition with giving aviendha a bracelet. and accidental society-of-warrior-big-sisters acquisition. he’s the sweetest baby, bless his heart he tries!
i’m loving the lil enemies-to-lovers thing he and aviendha have going on so far, it’s a fun change of pace from elayne and min’s insta-love (although min saw the future and knew she’d fall in love with him so she can’t really help it and she IS still fighting it internally, which is an intriguing dynamic all on its own, and elayne and rand are such cute little puppies i can’t even mind the insane pacing of their romance)
the wise ones spying on rand’s dreams: yes yes spooky, invasion of privacy, etc. BUT i’m laughing imagining them going “ugh ok whose turn is it to sit in on rand’s horny dreams this time” you’ve got to feel sorry for them watching that waterwood dream every night. or however often rand sleeps because i know it’s not every night.
“[rand] seemed not to see [aviendha], and her face was blank as stone. they deserved each other.” is that sulkiness i spy, mat? a hint of bitterness, perhaps? #PutMatInThePolycule
“‘oh, i am right behind you, rand.’ the worst of it was, it felt right saying that. bloody ta’veren tugging at me! how had perrin pulled free?” day 29834 of waiting for mat to just admit he has a crush on rand. why don’t you go make out with him and maybe you’ll calm down.
i love elayne and nynaeve’s ragtag little crew of unlikely allies. they are very lucky that repeatedly announcing their plans to random strangers worked out so well for them.
elayne latching onto thom like the dad she never had 🥺 she and mat are going to have to fight over who gets to have thom walk them down the aisle at the randwich wedding
peak romance is whatever the hell bain/chiad/gaul have going on
“the year is just to make sure you really do get on well together - which we [perrin and faile] do, as anyone can see” [footage not found]
no but although perrin and faile have been testing my patience this whole book, you bet your ass i forgot all about it and just Melted at their last-minute we’re-gonna-die-tomorrow wedding. fuck!! i always eat that shit up!!!
i can’t wait to see what the show does with their relationship because the seeds of an excellent ship are there but the execution in the book just could not be worse. so the show can only improve it, and i’m looking forward to it bc i WANT to like their relationship but so much of the time the book makes it impossible (it’s 2022 so i know the show will take out the physical violence and men vs. women aspects, and that alone will solve like 90% of my problems with the ship)
nynaeve facing off against a forsaken and WINNING!!! that’s my girl!!!!! i love the mental image of someone who can’t see weaves walking in and just seeing 2 women standing there staring at each other lmao
perrin going “i’m not good with words” and then proceeding to write the most romantic note i’ve ever seen, ok king!!
i’ve found most of of his plotline boring, if not infuriating, but his last chapter absolutely slapped! chills when faile showed up with reinforcements! why couldn’t the whole plotline have been like this!
rand after the maidens got him drunk: “he had not been able to walk straight after and they had got him to bed, laughing at him, no matter how much he protested, as much as he could with all of them tickling him so he could barely breathe for laughing himself...adelin and the others finally tucked him into his blankets and left” THIS IS THE MOST WHOLESOME THING I HAVE EVER READ OH MY GOD i literally had to stop reading for a solid 30 seconds, my heart was so overwhelmed. rand has so many big sisters now!!!!
mat wanting to go with rand to alcair dal 🥺 mat repeatedly motioning rand to come get on his horse with increasing franticness as tensions rise at alcair dal, rather than just riding off to protect himself and ditching rand 🥺🥺
“my father is tam al’thor. he found me, raised me, loved me. i wish i could have known you, janduin, but tam is my father.” 😭😭😭🥰🥰🥰 rand said fuck your fantasy trope of the hero finding out about his super important Real Parents and then caring more about them than the average joe adoptive parents who raised him
i knew isendre was lanfear right from the start, that was obvious, but i’m extremely proud to say i guessed the gleeman was asmodean just a chapter or two before the reveal (but only bc i remembered seeing asmodean associated with music in vague passages etc i saw before starting to read the books, not sure i would’ve guessed it otherwise) edit: lanfear was actually keille i’m an idiot. i was still right about asmodean though!
so this means mat thinks a forsaken is hot attractive to women, same as rand thought ishamael was hot attractive to women. maybe they’re just not meant to be if both their types is “sexy middle aged evil men”
what if you fought for the dark and i for the light and i severed you from your connection to the dark one and kept you by my side to teach me how to do magic and spread around to the other darksiders that you betrayed them so that they’d hate you and you’d have no choice but to stay with me and hope i win, and we were both boys 😳 oh there’s going to be so much enemies-to-lovers potential here, i can feel it in my bones
mat jumping to his feet with a grin when rand appears back safely!! a perfect cauthor note to end the book on god bless

ghost of you | jhs
Tumblr media
pairing: jung hoseok x female reader
summary: he keeps begging you to go, but you insist on staying
genre: childhood best friend!au, angst, slow burn, drama, little bit of fluff
warnings: implied smut (brief affair), swearing, alcohol consumption
word count: 12k (whoops more than planned)
a/n: so this is my very first full fic whew. there’s been last minute changes so I procrastinated but do listen to the song of the same title by 5 Seconds of Summer while reading this :)
and since this is VERY late from his birthday i just decided to submit it to @houseofddaeng​​’s Happy Hobiuary event this year and i chose a comeback look with my favourite hair colour on him, this was from the Euphoria MV ❤️
Tumblr media
Clearing your throat, you got the attention of everyone at the table. Now all eyes on you, you feel your confidence starting to falter. Who fucking cares, this monthly dinner with Hoseok's family is the best time for this.
"Um..so me and Hobi were thinking.." you eyed Hoseok beside you to help you continue explaining what you both have been planning for weeks.
"Y/N and I are thinking of getting a house together" Hoseok smiled back at you and you flushed.
"You wanna live together! Omg my ship is sailing!" Hoseok's sister Jiwoo is squealing while poking your sides. You just glared at her, eyeing her to stop just in case Hoseok catches on.
"N-no, not like that, we'll share a house near our campus" you clarified but the knowing look from your Mom is making you nervous, she can always read you. "Yeah, cause the dorms in uni are separated but we don't want to live apart" Hoseok chimed in cheerfully, putting an arm around your shoulder.
"Well then, of course. Who are we to stop you both" Hoseok's Dad smiled at you both and you felt his Mom's teasing eyes when you nuzzled into Hoseok's side. Your parents have not said anything and you contemplated asking, now anxiously holding Hoseok's hand beside you. His parents looked at yours hopefully and then your Dad finally decided to face you both.
"You both are now adults so do whatever you want" a look of surprise etched up on your face and you resisted to smile broadly, maintaining your cool exterior when you're actually screaming inside of happiness.
You can't help but think that this could possibly help you develop your relationship with Hoseok on another level.
.
After settling down, things are going well with you and Hoseok welcoming freshman year of university together. You're just glad that he never changed despite him gaining more friends because of his bright personality.
Meanwhile, you're the opposite. Literally people avoid you when they see you or seem hesitant every time you make a conversation which is bs so you eventually give up on making new friends. Hoseok once told you that you have this “hostile” aura, though he tried to convince you to still try but you don’t care anymore. Him has always been enough.
Most people wonder how you and Hoseok are best friends because of how opposite the two of you are. There is one thing that you and Hoseok share a hobby though, dancing. Which is why after the house was purchased, you both decided to transform the basement into a mini dance studio, it’s literally just a room with full wall mirrors and of course, only his family supported the idea.
"We'll pay you back after we graduate, promise!" you giggled excitedly, both of your hands clasping together, thanking Hoseok’s parents for being supportive. Finally you can dance freely now that you are out of your parents' lair, they were never supportive of you venturing in the arts anyways.
Though you haven't actually delved into dancing fully, Hoseok knows how good you are since every time he sees you secretly practicing, he always gets mesmerized with your moves. You've never taken any dance lessons and yet you're already this good, a natural hence why Hoseok decided that he’s gonna help you in going back to it fully this time.
"Let's choreograph a dance together" Hoseok beamed at you while you both are eating breakfast one morning.
"Wait what? Why all of a sudden?" you pouted, looking at him in confusion. Though his idea is amazing, you're not sure if you're good enough compared to Hoseok. He's dancing skills are out of this world with years of professional experience and you're just, well, you who only dances for fun.
"Why not? Y/N you're naturally talented you know, I don't know why you can't see it" Hoseok smiled warmly at you and reached out to hold your hand across the countertop. You almost choked with your toast when you looked at his eyes so you covered it with a cough.
"Pshh fine, be patient with me okay? I'm not as good as you" you jokingly glared at him, snatching back your hand. You hope that the shade of the morning sunlight is covering your blush cause you definitely felt your cheeks heating up.
Yeah you have feelings for him. Yeah you love him, so what? It's not like you can stop yourself in developing them. You tried but with a guy like Hoseok, that's impossible. Though you've been planning to confess, you just don't have the perfect timing yet.
.
After a few weeks, you are planning to confess to Hoseok tonight so you texted him to meet at your favorite restaurant at 8pm. You said it's your treat so he promised to be there, I mean he never breaks his promises anyways.
You're feeling jumpy for the first time, well it's different since it's Hoseok. After years of keeping your feelings, you're finally ready to tell him. Funny how brave you are in everything else except for this one, you smiled to yourself. You were early at the restaurant and laughed at yourself. Okay maybe you're too excited on what's going to happen tonight. Minutes passed after 8 and he still hasn't come so you readied yourself while waiting for him.
He's late, I mean you shouldn't be panicking since it's only been a couple of minutes but you can't help getting worried so you texted him. You mentally giggled, adoring the cute nickname you have for him that you only change when you’re alone. You always set it back to “Hoseok” afterwards in case he calls you in public, especially at uni.
[Hobi loml <3: Hobi are you almost here?]
You didn't wanna be too pushy. One text is enough and you took a deep breath while waiting for him. The waiter stopped by but you dismissed him saying that your companion will be here any minute now.
45 minutes have passed and he's still not here. You waited for more and it’s now 9:30 so you’re agitated now.
[Hobi loml <3: Hobi? Are you still coming?]
When you didn't get a reply, you smiled bitterly and just asked the same waiter to take out the food you ordered. He looked at you sympathetically but good thing he didn't say anything.
Arriving at your shared home, you noticed that the lights were off. So he’s not even home, where tf could he possibly be at this hour. Just when you were about to call him, you received a text from Hoseok but a guy named Jimin is  telling you that Hoseok is with them and that he would be staying the night at the boys’ dormitory.
So not only he forgot the formal dinner you prepared but he stood you up,  basically ditching you to be with his new friends. He broke his promise..
You’re wondering if this is only the beginning of him breaking his promises to you.
Tumblr media
A few months after that night, you notice that there’s something changing in Hoseok. You barely see him anymore since he spends a lot of time now with his other friends, but at least he still comes home at night and treats you the same. You’ve been waiting for a perfect time but you don’t want to delay your confession any longer so you decided to corner him one night after dinner. 
“Hoseok, can we talk?” you muttered and he eyed you curiously. 
“About what? And why are you fidgeting?” he coaxes you on, raising his eyebrows.
You straightened yourself and reached out to hold both of his hands, clutching them tightly.
Then staring into his eyes, you poured all your emotions on them as you declared what’s been deep down your heart for so many years.
“I like you, Hoseok” you smiled lovingly at him while his eyes widened in complete shock. His silence along with puzzled eyes looking back at you is making your heartbeat faster every second of him not doing anything.
“Y/N..” his voice came out unsure, I mean his face gave it all so now you’re very nervous.He probably thinks you’re just playing around and you’re getting restless.
“Hoseok, I’m serious okay?” you try to sound determined though your confidence is slowly dissipating. 
Back in silence, you can tell he’s been trying to be careful with his words, maybe to try not to hurt you. God if he rejects you-
“I don’t know what to say, uhm..thanks?” if this is in another situation you would’ve thought how adorable he is scratching the back of his head.
Hoseok doesn’t know how to respond to you. He knows you’re usually upfront in most things but he didn’t expect this from you. He’s literally clueless on what to say but you’re his best friend so he trusts you. 
What the hell got into you to think that a confession would be so simple. Well, you just decided to break the usual “I’ve been in love with my best friend for so long but I don’t want to ruin our friendship” thing. Not that there’s wrong with that, it’s very hard for some people to do so. So here you are, just finished confessing your feelings to your best friend and for the first time you’re nervous around him.
“Was I supposed to say ‘you’re welcome’?” you huffed, trying to act dismissive. “So what’s your answer? Again I told you I wasn’t joking, I like you Hoseok”. He gulped, you only use his real name when you’re very serious but he literally thought you were trying to prank him earlier or something. 
“Uhm, can you give me some time?” he looks at you with hopeful eyes. 
Fuck. You’re making him uncomfortable. Fuck.
“Shit, Hobi I’m sorry I didn’t mean to-” he cuts you off before you can even continue. 
“No, no, it’s not that.. It’s just-” he paused and breathed deeply, gathering his thoughts.
“I totally understand if-” you’re already panicking given that you're now speaking faster than usual.
“I’m not really sure how to be in a relationship, there.” He blurted, letting out a deep sigh that made you pause. You didn’t expect he would be just honest about the real reason at the moment so you smiled at him.
“It’s okay Hobi, we can take it slow and-” you’re already saying too much but who cares, it’s not like he rejected you so there must be something, right?
“Look, um I can’t give you a real answer yet but I trust you so I want us to give a chance ‘kay?” his tone shifting softly while shuffling your hair, walking away outside after. 
You pouted but nodded anyways. Hoseok’s glad that he got out of the conversation smoothly, at least now he’s relieved since you’re back to calling him “Hobi”.
Honestly, he’s happy knowing about your feelings for him. Smiling brightly at the night sky outside in the backyard of your shared home, thinking how he made his ever-confident best friend nervous just for a confession.
A ding from his phone pulled him out from his reverie, 
 [Unknown: We need to talk. Answer me or else she’ll know ;)]
Hoseok already knows who this is, given that he had blocked her numbers for a while now. He just didn’t expect that she’ll go this far, even going after you now. He just hopes this would be like the other warnings that he was able to handle.
[Unknown: image.]
[Unknown: Still not gonna answer me? You have a day <3]
He couldn't move from where he’s standing, staring at his phone in shock. This couldn't be happening, despite his confusion earlier you actually made his day better (as usual) but he doesn't know if he will be for yours after this anymore. Still staring at the text, Hoseok couldn’t think straight after what he just read. He’s hoping it’s not real, praying to all the gods out there that it's not what he thinks it is. 
[Him: Fine. Let’s meet at the nearest cafe, don’t you dare do something]
[Unknown: Yay! Can’t wait to see you, good night <3]
Retreating for the night he passed by your bedroom, only to see you asleep on your desks with some unfinished homework and he smiled, you’ve always looked beautiful even when you’re sleeping. He chuckled by himself at how adorable you are, with your habit of not locking your door when you're busy.
Tumblr media
Waiting at the said cafe felt like eons for Hoseok. He's mostly nervous because of the texts, especially that image. Getting absorbed in his thoughts he didn't realize the pair of arms that’s latching on his shoulders from behind and he jerked in surprise. 
"Hobi! Did you miss me?" a high-pitched voice startled him and looked up sideways to see a pretty girl with an innocent looking face, ironically."Don’t call me that" he released a defeated sigh, yanking his arms from her hold. 
Ahn Sohye, the girl who’s been going after him since the start of the school year that he has been desperately avoiding. Hoseok's bracing himself to whatever craziness she has in for him this time, doing his best to focus in order to get the clarification he’s been wanting.
“Awee why that face? And what? Cause Y/N’s the only one allowed to call you that?” Sohye scoffed, a tone of jealousy in her voice. Hoseok just frowned at her and was about to leave but her expression quickly changed, a sly smile towards him with warning eyes.
“Look!” her demeanour suddenly changed as she eagerly handed him a printed picture, and time stopped immediately.
An ultrasound picture.
No. 
no,no,no,no.
“What the fuck is this?” he hissed at her, incredulous eyes now mixed with anger.
“Our little one of course” she squealed excitedly, batting her lashes at him.
“Stop fucking around with me Sohye, this isn’t funny anymore” Hoseok’s usually calm but his patience have been tested for weeks already and it’s getting worse but this one is beyond anything the girl has done before. 
“Why are you so concerned anyways?” Hoseok gave her a look and she smiled mischievously. He went silent, eyes skeptical.
“Ah, her.” she quipped, a smile not faltering and that made Hoseok uneasy. 
He’s having a hard time adjusting to everything. Is he really going to be a dad? Not that he hates kids but why does it have to be now? After you confessed? Everything’s been going well for him, for you both.
“This is the last straw Sohye, don’t you dare” Hoseok grits his teeth. You can’t find out about this. You just can’t. The memory of your saddened expression because of his lack of response suddenly flashed through his eyes. He doesn't wanna let you down any more than you already are.
“Why not? Won’t she support you? You guys are best friends after all” she mused. Yes, both you and Hoseok have been since you were little, but something definitely shifted from the platonic feelings he had for you after that night. He still wants to wait it out to be sure, but it’s definitely more than how normal friends would feel and apparently you are already feeling it way longer than him and he didn’t even ask when so now he feels way worse than before.
“You don’t understand, we-” Hoseok paused. He doesn’t want her to know, though there’s no point since Sohye seems to be getting the message already. He just didn’t want to show any signs that will confirm her suspicions. 
“It’s not mine. No way in hell that’s mine” Hoseok’s rambling to himself in distress, he doesn’t know who he’s trying to convince other than himself.
“Of course it’s yours, that party remember? 2 months ago?” she cooed at him. His eyebrows are creasing together trying to rack his memory of what party Sohye is talking about. 
“I don’t think you would remember any of it, you were very drunk” she giggled and that caused Hoseok to pale. That one party was hosted by one of Taehyung’s friends where he got so drunk that he didn’t remember anything the next day.
“No, that’s impossible. Taehyung told me I didn’t do anything rash that night”. Hoseok’s fidgeting right now. He’s usually careful, but that night his tolerance seems to get the best of him. Then he started remembering bits of pieces back...
“Hey, you’re the one who dragged me to the bed you know” she smirked, winking at him.“Why the fuck would I want you in bed with me?” he noticed his voice getting louder, as he was looking around the cafe people are already giving weird looks at their table. 
“Here, watch” her smile, still annoyingly on like all of what she’s been planning this whole time has finally come to fruition. 
A video. A fucking video taken by Sohye herself, but camera was on Hoseok only for the entire time. Of him calling her your name. Of him babbling about what he feels when you’re around. Of him letting all his emotions out in the open. He thought she was you, he was only seeing you when he’s drunk.
He’s speechless. He can’t think of what to respond to that one now. Sure the pictures can easily be dismissed but this video, this damn video is making him more helpless than he’s ever been already.
“So you see Hoseok, you can’t run away from me now” still frozen in his place he didn’t even swat her hand that she put them on top of him.
.
Meanwhile, you were just outside the cafe witnessing all of these happening. It’s not like you followed him here, you just happened to pass by since you’re going for groceries which is on the next block. 
You know your best friend from the back of your hand. You can recognize him anywhere since you both have been inseparable ever since. So when you noticed his figure inside the cafe with someone, your heart clenched. 
“Is he on a date?” you murmured to yourself. Is he? But why? You just confessed last night didn’t you? Is that why he didn’t give you an answer? Cause he’s already seeing someone and just didn’t want to hurt you? You recoil at the thought of him subtly rejecting you.
Hoseok couldn’t help but look sideways through the glass wall beside him to calm down and noticed someone standing there, looking straight at him.
He instantly jerked when he recognized it’s you.
You. Standing there, facing him and Sohye but now hurriedly leaving. He yanked his hands from her hold and immediately busted out through the door, hoping to catch you.
You don’t know why you started walking faster the moment he looked back at you from inside the cafe. Why the fuck were you even so obvious? He must think you’ve been spying on him or something.
“Y/N!” his voice is so loud calling you, but agitated. Hoseok doesn’t know why he suddenly has an urge to explain to you. To explain that what you saw was nothing to worry about.
You were fiddling your phone, pretending to look for something online when you felt his hand on your shoulder. Composing yourself, you faced him with a “surprise” look.
“Hobi, hi! I was going to get some groceries, do you want something specific?” you’ve put up a great acting which made Hoseok wonder if he was only imagining what he saw earlier. 
“Uh, just buy my usual favorites hehe” his voice full of uncertainty. So he did really see you earlier lurking at him and his date. And Hoseok being Hoseok, didn’t confront you about it.
“Hobi! Wait for me” a woman’s voice suddenly interrupted you both and Hoseok paled as soon as he saw Sohye walking towards you both.
Please not now, please not yet-
“Oh you’re with someone” you’re trying to keep your voice neutral despite wanting to scream in frustration at the moment. You’re not gonna cry, you were never a crier anyways. No fucking way you’ll cry in front of Hoseok and his date. 
You feel betrayed, even if Hoseok doesn’t owe you anything. It’s not like he answered you, did he? So he can do anything he wants to do, go on dates even if you already told him how you feel.
“Y-Y/N, it’s-” before Hoseok could explain the girl already gave out her hand to shake yours.
“It’s Sohye, Hoseok’s girlfriend”. She smiled at you, a knowing one. You know her of course, she’s the majority of Hoseok’s daily complaints to you since the beginning of the semester last year so now you’re really wondering how they are together now. 
You stiffened. Your expression must be wavering since Hoseok tried to reach for you but she's already clinging into his arms to stop him. 
You can’t crumble like this, you already looked pathetic from confessing to someone who’s already taken. But then it’s not like you know right? Hoseok would’ve told you the moment you confessed but he didn’t so maybe they JUST got together earlier inside?
 “Uh Hi! Nice to meet you, I’m Y/N” you’re trying your best to show your most kindest smile even though they came out strained since you’re already dying inside.“Oh I know, Hobi told me a lot of things about you” she smiled at you, a feign one you see.
“Y/N-” you decided to cut him off, clearly you’ve interrupted something very important for them.
“I’m sorry I really have to go now, see you at home later Hoseok” you didn’t even look at his eyes and just turned away without letting him respond.
Hoseok’s distressed. He just hurt you again, and your expression earlier was even worse than the last time he saw you with it. 
Stupid, stupid, stupid.
He’s a fucking coward and he knows it. He’s too nice to the point that his indecisiveness is causing the most important person of his life in pain.
“Why did you tell her that you’re my girlfriend when you’re clearly not? He barked but Sohye just laughed at him mockingly.
“Are you kidding me? You’re the father of my child so obviously you’re my boyfriend now” she retorted and Hoseok scoffed. “I’m not your fucking boyfriend and you better clarify it with Y/N”. He’s on edge right now, he knows what you’re feeling and he knows for sure that you’re mad at him.
“Anyways, I’ll update you later bye” and she kissed him on the cheek. 
Tumblr media
The thing is, you saw everything though. After turning around when you’re supposed to be going to the convenience store, you hid at the corner of the street. To watch them, to torture yourself even more.And when you saw Sohye left a kiss on his cheek while he’s still lost in thought, you finally left. 
Arriving at the convenience store, you pulled your hoodie up trying to cover your face as much as you can. Don’t want any strangers looking at you weirdly while shopping with tears. After grabbing necessities, you proceeded to the meat section to get pork slices since Hoseok loves bulgogi. Your tears started to fall through after staring at the couple of sliced pork packs that reminded you of when you and him were having a picnic at the park.
You remember Hoseok doing the barbecues and you just stared at him the whole time, until this day you still wonder if he knew about you ogling him before. Staring at him while he’s cooking made you realize how in love you are with this boy. Not because of his handsome face but because of how he is naturally him. How his smile always brightens you up. How his sweet and caring nature made it really hard for you to quell what you feel for him anymore.
After Sohye left, Hoseok immediately went to the convenience store and saw you at the cash register, ready to pay. He cuts you off before you give out your card, “Here, I’ll pay” with a crooked heart shaped smile directly at you. Though you noticed the simmering guilt in his eyes.
“No Hobi, you paid last time so just let me” your voice came out colder than you intended it to be that made Hoseok more guilty.
The cashier was looking at you both and snickered “So who’s going to pay? I’m all for equality and shit but just decide. You young couples are always complicated” she groaned.
Both you and Hoseok are stunned with the lady’s insinuation, well obviously you can’t believe you were still blushing so you're thankful that your face is semi-covered.
“Uh-” you were about to explain that you’re not a couple but Hoseok cut you out of it. “Me, I’m paying” he smiled at her and she offered a satisfied shrug, murmuring something about how “gentleman” Hoseok is. Why didn’t he correct her? 
Hoseok offered to carry all the bags but you insisted. He must be really feeling pity for you right now. After leaving the convenience store, you both were quiet. Way different than before where you both usually banter and throw jokes at each other when walking to home.
This awkwardness needs to end.
“So, is that why you couldn’t answer me before?” you turned to him, trying to sound bold. You just want to know the truth, since he already lied to you.
“Uh no, actually-” cutting him off of his explanation you scoffed. Listen to his explanation Y/N just listen..
“You should’ve been honest with me you know, is it really hard for you?” your voice came out weaker. Since when did you both start keeping secrets to each other? Sure you do harmless small lies but not as big as this. 
“Yes, I was and Sohye isn’t my girlfriend” his voice rising with panic. Hoseok’s feeling it again, the need to clarify things to you. Maybe because he now knows what you feel? Or maybe because he just doesn't want to hurt you even more.
“You didn’t have to lie, I saw you both at the cafe clearly on a date” you stated coldly.
“That wasn’t it, you’re misinterpreting everything” his voice went quieter, now pleading.
“It’s alright Hoseok, can we drop the subject now” you glared at him and walked faster towards your shared home. 
Hoseok just sighed defeatedly, deciding to give you space since your mind is really closed for any explanation.
.
You wonder who’s going to “cook” since you can’t cook for shit but Hoseok’s pretty good though he’s very humble about it. Now that you both are in tension with each other, you were about to offer to buy take out when he beats you out of it again.
“I’ll cook, just let me Y/N” mimicking what you said earlier to him. Entering your bedroom, you gave out a big exhale to calm down and rationalize everything.
You’re being irrational and immature about the whole situation and it’s not fair for Hoseok. The smell of bulgogi made you come out of your room to the kitchen where he was preparing early dinner for you both.
A surprised gasp came out of your mouth the moment you saw how the dining table was arranged to like that of a formal date. With the fine plates and cutleries that you even forgot where you put, the mini candle light that you gifted him from last Christmas and the vase of daisies, your favourite.
“Hobi-” you started but he put his hands up to a stop.
“No, let me explain everything please” his usually warm and happy eyes look up at you sadly.
“Okay..”
“First of all, I’m sorry okay? I know you’re hurting already but please believe me when I tell you that me and Sohye are never together. She’s not my girlfriend and I didn’t lie in any means that night.” he’s fidgeting now because of nervousness.
“Hobi, I should be the one saying sorry to you for acting like that. You didn’t deserve it” you told him, voice lacing with emotion. You really grow weak when it comes to him.
Hoseok smiled with relief at you, you never show this emotional side to other people except him. He opened his arms wide and you didn’t hesitate to accept his embrace.
You stayed like that for a while, you being way calmer now because of his embrace and him running his hands through your hair while swaying you both slowly. As if doing this wouldn’t make you forgive him or something.
“Come, let’s eat. It's getting cold and oh, I cooked your favourite. I’m also making up for the dinner I missed last time” his usual sunny demeanour is back though an apologetic smile appeared on his heart-shaped lips.
“Thank you Hobi though this is too much for an apology, I can never hate you for so long” you chuckled, playfully hitting his arms.
After your make-up dinner, the atmosphere of your shared house went back to normal and you both decided to end the night with a movie.
Cuddling with him has always been your favorite. You just love skinship in general but you would never let anyone know that. You’re only like this to Hoseok anyways.
You both are debating again about the movie when you can feel the vibrations from his phone inside his pocket.
Hoseok grimaced the moment he looked at the name appearing on his phone. He looked at you but you didn’t seem to notice his reaction.
You did. Of course you did, it’s Sohye. His reaction gave it away but you pretended to be still immersed in the movie.
“Uh, I need to take this. Be right back hehe” he ruffled your hair with a strained smile and left to go outside. Props to him for being considerate, he’s trying to protect your already broken heart. 
“What” he barked on the phone as soon as he answered Sohye’s call. 
“Don’t snap at me Hoseok, did you tell her? She’s pretty down” she mused with fake sympathy on her voice.
“Is that really the only reason why you’re calling me?” Hoseok’s annoyed. This night was supposed to be a make-up night for you both and now she’s ruining it.
"No of course not, my parents want to meet you". Hoseok's blood ran cold. Sohye's parents..does this mean?
"Hey, are you even listening?!" Sohye screeched on the phone which made Hoseok put the phone away from his ears.
"Yeah I am, what the fuck do you mean meet your parents? No way" he responded with disbelief. He couldn't even wrap his head in the fact that he got someone pregnant accidentally when he was drunk and now he's already going to meet Sohye's parents?
"You will, I told them what happened and they want to meet the father of their soon to be grandchild. End of discussion" she stated coldly.
"Sohye-" before he can even try to plead to move things slow, the line went dead already.
An exhausted sigh came out of him with the new problem he's going to face from now on. Fuck.
Looking back at the house, he saw you at the doorway looking worriedly at him so he smiled to ease you.
Something's wrong. What's happening with him and Sohye? You didn't hear anything but you saw Hoseok's reaction to whoever he's calling.
You stopped him before he could continue.
"Is everything alright? you're trying to ease the obvious distress on his face but as usual he just shrugged. 
"Yeah, don't worry it wasn't Sohye" his response seems flat and he couldn't look at your eyes so you're already suspecting that he's lying. 
You pretended you didn't notice his lies and smiled back at him saying good night and retreats to your room.
.
You definitely noticed the changes in him after that night. He looks defeated and troubled every time you see him. Is this your fault? Did your confession cause all of this? But he would’ve told you differently, no?
It’s a miracle you’re catching him eating breakfast in the kitchen since had been avoiding you. “Hey Hobi you alright?” that seemed to shake him out of his thoughts. 
“Y/N, hey you scared me” he chuckled awkwardly. 
“Hobi what’s wrong? You know you can tell me anything right? I won’t judge”. He looks at you thoughtfully though you can't quite figure out what his eyes are telling you.
“I’m fine Y/N, just busy these days. You know how serious Yoongi is in this songwriting club that we just started” disappointment crossed your features at his dismissal of your concern. Maybe he just needs space, but it’s not like you’ve been clinging to him more than usual after your confession. Everything’s normal, even better, at least for you.
Hoseok flinched when he saw your disheartened face. He’s been trying to act like nothing’s going on even though he’s been frustrated on what to do next. He’s literally helpless. He needs to let this out to Namjoon since he knows he’s rational and would know what to do in any kind of situation.
“Oh okay, just tell me when you’re ready hmm?” you hoped that sounded less disappointed of him not opening to you. He didn’t even look at you when you hollered to say goodbye for class.
He couldn't look at you since he's afraid he'll slip up. He has to settle himself first before telling you. He wouldn't want to cause you any more pain so he needs to be prepared.
.
One morning, you woke up with the silent house. Maybe Hoseok went for an early jog so you helped yourself in the kitchen where you saw the breakfast that he already prepared.
“Had to leave early, here's your breakfast! :)”  - Hobi <3
Ugh, why are you still not used to him being sweet when he was always like this? Okay maybe things just magnified once you realized your feelings for him.
You wonder where he went though. Sohye? Nah, you don't think so.You both just went back to normal so you're not going to be the reason to put you both in that awkward situation again.
You dismissed your thoughts and decided to do full house cleaning since it's the weekend. And hey, you kinda miss cleaning so-
The doorbell rang and you dropped your cleaning supplies to check. That's strange, you didn't order anything so it must be Hoseok's.
Tumblr media
He's nervous. Scratch that, he's fucking terrified of meeting Sohye's parents. Not only that, he lied to you again. This one just an addition to the rising amount of lies he now seems easily to do to his best friend.
"Just relax, they're gonna love you" Sohye's trying to calm him down by caressing his arms but he pulled away.
"Are you sure that's even mine? How do I fucking know for sure?" he hissed and Sohye whined.
"Would I fucking involve my parents if this isn't serious? You didn't know the shit I went through after they found out" her voice came out meekly which surprised him.
Hoseok paused. He's been too absorbed of what's happening to him to the point that he didn't even think of what Sohye is feeling for all of this.
Sure she annoyed the fuck outta him but if this baby she's carrying is actually his, then Sohye's going to be one of his responsibilities too.
"What? I- I thought they were supportive Sohye" his voice is calm compared to the usual harshness and this startled her.
"We're still in university, this pregnancy will delay my graduation so duh" she tried to be dismissive about it but Hoseok can see the subtle troubled look in her eyes.
When they reached the Ahn residence, Hoseok's heartbeat seemed to multiply even more. Sohye intertwined their hands and he didn't bother stopping her because he couldn't really think of anything right now.
Sohye’s parents welcomed them both and guided them to the living room where they’ll discuss the “future”. Hoseok couldn’t help but feel that he needs to make a good impression to Sohye’s parents otherwise.
“Hello, Mr and Mrs. Ahn I’m Jung Hoseok” Hoseok bowed and smiled though he still can’t meet their eyes with his own.
“Oh you’re so polite and warmingly charming” Mrs. Ahn mused with an endearing voice.
“So you are the one who knocked up my daughter” Mr. Ahn spat, eyes now glaring at Hoseok and he played with the scrutinizing eyes.
“Dad, can you please not scare him?” Sohye shrieked, shielding Hoseok from her father.
“She’s right sweetie, calm down hmm? Hoseok’s seem to be a good boy” Hoseok is kind of relieved that at least Mrs. Ahn is nicer to him than the latter.
“So when’s the wedding date?” 
Everyone went silent as soon as Mr. Ahn dropped the million dollar question.
Mrs. Ahn looked intently at the both of them while She's giving expectant looks to Hoseok who can’t seem to remove his gaze from the floor.
Finally after a long inhale of breath, Hoseok raised his eyes to face Mr. Ahn .
“With all due respect,”
“You ARE marrying my daughter am I correct?” Mr. Ahn cutting him off made him falter but he has to man up now. This isn’t something he can run away from anymore.
“Dad, me and Hobi still wanted to graduate,” Sohye stated. 
“But you both will have a child soon so it’s better to get married now before your graduation” Mrs. Ahn added, her demeanour now getting serious.
Hoseok’s panicking right now but he doesn’t care anymore if it looked obvious as he was trying to find alternative ways to escape this route, surely there has to be other than marriage. 
This will ruin everything that he's planned for himself and well, you. The thought of you made Hoseok winced.
You who he's already hurting
You who loves him for as long you could remember 
You who do not know about any of this
You who is-
"Hoseok!" hands tugging his arms made him come back to reality where Sohye's been trying to get his attention.
"Huh?"
"What's your answer going to be? Mr. Ahn and Hoseok gulped.
"I-um I'll marry her" his voice came out stable which surprised him. Is he really gonna be doing this? Get married? He's not even ready but how about Sohye? 
The thought of Sohye keeping their child from him if he ever refuses made him convinced himself that he's doing the right thing.
"Really? Omg that's great!" Sohye squealed along with her mother sharing the happiness with Hoseok's decision while Mr. Ahn was looking at Hoseok with knowing eyes.
"Come along" Sohye's father gestured him to their mansion's garden and now the nervousness is back on Hoseok's veins.
"Sir-"
"You don't love my daughter, I know.I can see it, I'm not blind kid"
Hoseok gasped lightly. Well he shouldn't be surprised since his expressions have always been obvious. Dammit why can't he be better in acting?
"I-yes you're right" he's been trying to calm down but he couldn't stop his legs from fidgeting.
"But you're marrying my daughter regardless" Mr. Ahn wondered.
"It's the right thing to do" he responded firmly which surprised the older man.
Silence ruled the both of them until Mrs. Ahn called in for lunch.
.
You opened your door to a mailman delivering what seems to be baby supplies. Huh?
"Uhm sorry, did you get the wrong address? the mailman stared back at you warily before showing you the receipt that displays Hoseok’s name.
“This is Mr. Jung Hoseok’s residence is it not?” you were caught off guard to the sassiness of the mailman so you grabbed the boxes he was holding.
“Yes, thank you” you offered an embarrassing smile.
“You’re welcome and congrats by the way” he replied while eyeing the boxes and immediately left.
You stood there for a while trying to process what the mailman just said. He thought you’re Hoseok’s wife or something? He thought you’re pregnant? Wait.
Baby supplies. Why would Hoseok need baby supplies?
And then it struck you, 
Sohye.
Your heart shattered with the revelation that you almost dropped the boxes. Why? Why would Hoseok lie to you again? You both just made up and now this?
He confuses tf out of you. He says he doesn’t wanna hurt you but here he is, hurting you even more each day.
Fuck, you feel pathetic. Bet your homegirls back in uni’s gonna laugh at how much you’ve become weak just because of a boy.
But he’s not just some boy, 
He’s your best friend,
And the love of your life
But lately with the lies and secrets, you’re not even sure if you know him anymore.
Tumblr media
The lunch with the Ahn family consisted of talking about the wedding plans, all seems to be a blur to Hoseok as he just keeps nodding to whatever they say to him.
“Hobi, honey, when do you think is the perfect date?” Sohye grasps his arm which makes him turn to her and he’s trying not to barf with the endearment she just called him because her parents are around. 
“Uh-idk I have to talk to my folks first” he replied nervously which made both Sohye’s parents focus on him.
Fuck.
“Yeah he didn’t know about it so take it easy” Sohye whined at her parents.
“And besides, I’m not even sure if that baby is mine” he added. The sudden accusatory remark towards Sohye changed the atmosphere, cold all of the sudden and Hoseok immediately regretted the words that came out from him. 
Where in the fucking world did he even get the confidence to say out loud what’s been bugging him in this situation.
“What did you just say?” Mr. Ahn growled, actually now getting angry. Sohye went rigid beside Hoseok and speechless and Mrs. Ahn let out a surprised gasp.
Shit, it’s now or never.
“If I’m being honest, I don’t trust anything that comes from your daughter, seeing as how she’s been chasing and threatening me since the beginning of the school year” he stated, voice hard while glaring at Sohye knowingly.
“How dare you insult us in our own home?” Mrs. Ahn yelled at him. Hoseok’s confidence faltered, vanishing but he stood on his ground.
“I’m serious, I won’t marry her until I know for sure if it’s mine” Hoseok’s proud that his voice came out stable.
“Sohye, why don’t you guide Hoseok out” Mr.Ahn stated calmly which made Hoseok nervous again, the old man must have felt betrayed given how Hoseok suddenly changed his mind after their talk earlier.
The table was silent until Sohye stood up wordlessly and grabbed Hoseok towards the outside of their mansion.
Before they could even reach the gate, a sudden hand landed on Hoseok’s left cheek.
“Fuck you Hoseok” Sohye grits her teeth, eyes with fury while looking at him intently. 
No lie, that slap hurts but Hoseok didn’t even care because his eyes were on the gate.
On you.
And you’re in rage now that you witnessed what just happened and Hoseok knows how protective you are of him.
The lack of response caused Sohye followed his gaze, now on you and she laughs, hysterically.
You were already walking towards them with that furious expression, the one that actually scares Hoseok.
“HOW FUCKING DARE YOU TO SLAP HIM YOU BITCH” you screamed with fury the moment you reach the both of them and was about to grab Sohye but Hoseok stopped you just in time. 
“Y/N stop!” Hoseok’s trying to stop your arms that are reaching Sohye who’s still laughing, clearly amused by your outburst. She wonders if you already know but judging by Hoseok’s anxious eyes looking back at her, she knew it was the latter.
Well, what a perfect time.
“Oh Y/N, what are you doing here? I don’t remember inviting you” Sohye smiled at you mockingly, obviously trying to get into your skin and you’re falling for it.
“Cut the crap you bitch, how dare you-” you were about to attack again and actually almost succeeded because you actually caught her arm when-
“She’s pregnant Y/N stop!” Hoseok shouted which made you froze from flailing your arms around and you jerked in shock.
The devastated expression that emerged from your beautiful face made Hoseok’s heart lurched. He didn’t have the intention of telling you this way, this wasn’t supposed to happen.
“W-What?” your mind went blank. You came here expecting an explanation from Hoseok about the baby supplies package you received earlier. Why is he so goddamn good at hurting his best friend? No this is a joke, this has to be.
“Yes, Y/N I am pregnant and Hoseok’s the father” Sohye squealed, looking at you with those triumphant eyes with a slick smile. Wait, does she know of your feelings?
You averted your eyes to Hoseok now that the truth is out. You were hoping for a different reaction but the moment his eyes met yours, they’re full of shame. Fuck, it really hurts coming from him.
The realization finally crept into your mind with everything that's been happening to Hoseok ever since the night of your confession.
Sohye, avoiding you, going somewhere without telling you..it all makes sense now. But what's not making sense is how he kept lying to you all this time.
"Y-YN-" Hoseok is like a deer caught in headlights, guilty eyes that are now morphing into full of panic. He knows you, does he really though? He doesn't even know himself anymore.
You're usually composed, especially with other people around. You're that kind of person who remains calm even in rough commotions. But it's totally different when it involves the man you cherish and love..
And before you could reply, a middle aged couple emerged behind Hoseok who reminded you of Sohye and remembered that you're in their premises, the Ahn residence.
"What is going on here?" Mrs.Ahn eyed the three of you suspiciously, primarily staring at you. Ah, the stranger.
"Nothing Mom, this is Y/N, Hoseok's best friend" Sohye smiled sarcastically to you with those knowing eyes, challenging you to continue.
Embarrassment filled you once you came back to reality and snatched your arms from Hoseok's grasp. Breathing deeply, you tried to compose yourself before looking up at both of Sohye's parents.
"Really? I thought she IS his girlfriend given the fact that he had refused to marry you" Mr.Ahn stated coldly, still eyes on Y/N.
Hoseok turned around to face Sohye's parents, thinking of putting his arm around you but hesitated. 
He knows you're mad at him so he opted to move slowly in front of you, trying to protect you from the scrutinizing eyes of Sohye's parents. Noticing this you raised your chin and looked directly into Mr. Ahn's eyes.
"No, I'm not his girlfriend but he's one of the most important people in my life as I am to him so whatever situation you've put him through, I need to know" you seethed, eyes full of determination though the phrase "not his girlfriend" almost distracted you. 
You're surprised your voice came out confident despite the nervousness that might be etched now on your face.
"Well young lady, we were just talking with your friend about wedding preparations but seems like he's changing his mind" Mrs. Ahn glared at Hoseok.
"I already told you that I have to talk to my family first and figure out what really happened that night. I'll update you as soon as I can, I swear" he hurriedly explained, nervously looking back at you to gauge your reactions. 
"Alright then, we hope to hear from you soon". Mr. Ahn replied coldly, his eyes landing on Y/N and that made Hoseok uneasy.
Sohye's parents went back inside and you stepped back from behind Hoseok with a stoic expression, in no way you'll show Sohye how affected despite of your suspicion that she knows already.
"Brave of you to come here Y/N, but props you both are fun to watch" she chuckled and you didn’t want to give her the satisfaction so you fought yourself, bitch.
"I'm just fetching Hoseok and since I think everything's done here, we're leaving" you turned around, not waiting for any response from the both of them. You felt hurried steps behind you,trying to catch up but you didn't bother.
Inside the car, the silent tension that surrounds the both of you is deafening. Hoseok nibbled his lips anxiously, feeling your anger from the revelation earlier. It's his fault so he has to settle this down before arriving home.
"Y/N I'm sor–"
"You lied to me, again" you cut him off with a blank expression, tone contemptuous.
"I know but–"
"We promised each other after that night that there would be no lies anymore" you bristled.
"I didn't wanna hurt you more than I already am okay?!" he blurted out, eyes turning glassy. Hoseok's trying to take a deep breath to stop himself from tearing up. 
You sneered and didn't bother to respond,the nerve of him to be upset in this situation.
"I'll sleep at Namjoon's" he mumbled meekly and you quickly dropped him at his friend’s house.
“Good night Y/N” he inhaled sharply when you didn’t respond or even looked back at him. “I’m sorry” he mumbled, exiting the car with a gloomy expression.
You waited on your seat for a while, trying to hold in every emotion that has been building until he was further away. Hands turning white as you grip the steering wheel, you took a deep breath and started bawling your eyes out in pain.
In excruciating pain. What’s going to happen between you and Hoseok now? All your hopes of a future together are now shattered. It was going so well, you confessed and he gave you a chance and now this. 
.
To Namjoon’s surprise, it was a miserable Hoseok who’s standing in front of his dorm room instead of the japchae delivery he’s been expecting. He didn’t ask for more and stepped aside to let his friend in.
“Alright man what happened?” Namjoon asked worriedly and Hoseok’s tears welled up in his before exhaling deeply.
“She knows Joon” Hoseok whispered, trying to stop his tears and Namjoon sat down on the couch urging his friend to continue.
“Everything happened so fast..Y/N was going after Sohye after she saw her slap me so I had to admit the truth right there” he felt his throat closing up when he recalled your crushed reaction earlier. How he wishes he could’ve told you in a different situation.
"She'll find out eventually though" another voice replied, and Hoseok turned his head back to see another person coming in the living room. Immediately recognizing Namjoon's roommate he walked up to him and hissed,
"You told me nothing happened that night!" he yelled and poor Taehyung grabbed Hoseok's arm that's on his collar in an attempt to calm him down.
Namjoon immediately stood up in panic and rushed towards both boys, struggling to get Hoseok off from Taehyung.
"Hobi, hey, calm down" Namjoon spoke calmly and Hoseok let go of Taehyung instantly.
"Hyung, I'm sorry I swear the only time I saw you was when we were drinking and the morning after. Jungkook told me you left with someone so I thought that was Y/N coming to pick you up" the younger man reasoned with fear, knowing how Hoseok gets when he's absolutely angry.
"Well it wasn't, it was Ahn Sohye and we slept together apparently" he answered slowly, more calmer now. What's the point of blaming other people when it already happened, it's going to change anything.
Only Namjoon knew at the beginning as soon as Hoseok heard the news and told him immediately, asking for help. Meanwhile the rest of his friend group didn't know about it until, well starting now.
"Stay for the night, you're always welcome here anyways" Namjoon patted Hoseok's shoulders softly and grabbed Taehyung to set up for dinner, which just arrived when they heard a knock from the door.
"Thanks Joon, and sorry for my outburst earlier Tae" he shuffled the younger's hair affectionately.
Tumblr media
Hoseok wasn't there in the morning and a few mornings after that. You debated to ask his sister if she knew about this whole thing or what. She could've known and just didn't want to tell you to spare your feelings but you didn't care.
Calling Jiwoo 언니..
"Hello? Y/N?" she answered cautiously. Ah, always obvious just like her little brother. 
"So you knew" you muttered passively. How could she? You both are like sisters from different mothers.
"Don't be mad please, I just found out too!" voice laced with alarm.
When you didn't reply she then proceeded to explain to you that Hoseok did go to his family to tell them the entirety of the situation. Why didn't he text you to meet there? Despite what happened, you would've been by his side, supporting him because that's what best friends do.
But then you remember last night and suddenly your anger resurfaced and you ended the call immediately, getting ready to leave only to be greeted by Seokjin at the door.
"Good morning" he smiled at you, filled with compassion.
"They sent you didn't they?" you snarled, frowning at his handsome face as you stepped aside to let him in.
"Hoseok actually since you know, you can't cook. He just wants to make sure you get a proper breakfast" he mused, rummaging the kitchen for ingredients.
"How sweet of him" you replied sarcastically, taking a seat at the kitchen counter with both hands on your face to cover your expression from Jin.
"Hey give him a break, all this is not easy for him too" he stated solemnly, giving you a serious look, placing the waffles and omelet that he just cooked.
You glared at him and started eating silently. Seeing him sit in front of you, you know he's looking at you closely deciphering your current emotions.
"I'm fine" you stated as you looked up at him and though his eyes widened at your lack of sadness, his eyes are still skeptical.
"No, you're not. We heard what happened" he answered with caution. You almost faltered but you remained composed, acting dismissive as usual.
"I AM fine, drop it Seokjin" you jeered. Seokjin wanted a reaction from you so there you have it, only anger though. He texted the rest that you seem to be alright and that they'll meet with others soon.
"Hurry, we're going somewhere" he quickly cleaned up the table and gestured to you to follow him outside. You grumbled but agreed anyways.
"If you're bringing me to Hoseok don't bother" you glanced at him blankly before looking outside the car window, obviously you don't want to seek him out unless he needs something from you.
"No you'll help us prepare, the boys want your opinion" Jin explained calmly, still wary of your mood.
You didn't answer him and just scoffed so he took it as a yes. You don't want any confrontation from the rest of Hoseok's friends but you can't really escape them so might as well.
.
Tonight, you saw the lights are on as you're walking into the driveway. 
He's home, and you're nervous on how to approach him.
“I’ll be your maid of honour” you whispered. Hoseok looked up at you, eyes surprised at your sudden conviction.
“W-What? B-but Y/N..” he tried reaching on your arm but you stepped back and that made him pause. Hoseok should feel happy that you’re going to his wedding but he can’t help but feel wrong.
“My decision’s final, I don’t care but don’t try to stop me. I already confirmed with your sister” you stated coldly, still not looking into his eyes.
"I don't like hurting you, Y/N please. You don't have to attend the wedding, it's fine with me" his voice pleading, still trying to convince you despite your final decision earlier.
See? How can you not love him? Even in rough times like this, he is still considerate of your feelings.
You sighed, “Don’t be ridiculous, I’m your best friend and this is an important part of your life so I should be there” you stated, finally looking back into his eyes.
You're not gonna cry
You're not
You're getting tired of it..
Focusing on other thoughts to stop yourself from crying you didn't notice Hoseok approaching you slowly. When his hands cupped your face, it broke out your reverie.
"Y/N, I-"
You already have a feeling of what he's going to say the moment you met his eyes earlier, they've always been so expressive.
"Don't. Not now Hoseok, not anymore" you looked at his eyes that mirror with your sadness. He inhaled sharply, eyes changing with determination.
"No, Y/N" the way he says your name with a smile is making you nervous and before you could muster a response, a pair of soft lips touched yours and you immediately closed your eyes.
Is this finally happening? Hoseok kissing you? You only hoped about this before but you didn't think it's finally happening. He feels the same now right?
"Hoseok.." you croaked breathlessly after you released each other. He didn't release his hold on your face in which you're leaning, hoping that this is not only your imagination.
"Let me show you.. please.." his eyes begged. Not gonna lie, you've been waiting for this moment to happen but you both see it in a different way. 
Him, showing gratitude while you..
While you're taking advantage of him for your own selfish reasons.
Bringing your hands up on top of his face, you smiled back at him and nodded.
He’s giving you a chance, though this seems like charity even but you don’t care anymore.
So you did.
Tumblr media
Hoseok woke up the next day feeling relieved but mostly happy to have finally shown you his feelings, though he’s not sure if you heard his declaration last night. Expecting your presence beside him he turned around and reached out, only to find an empty space.
Suddenly sitting up in dread, he looked around trying to find you. Getting up and hastily putting on his clothes, he went outside directly to the kitchen but you are nowhere to be found. His chest tightened at the thought of you leaving him after what happened last night.
Was he too forward? But you gladly accepted him. Was that an act? D-did you already fall out of love from him?
Before he could continue his thoughts, his phone dinged beside him at the counter. Though he’s expecting Sohye, the text surprisingly came from his sister.
[지우 Noona: Y/N’s and I are in the boutique right now, where are you?]
[Hobi: jwu why? am I needed somewhere?]
[지우 Noona: Go meet with the wedding planner with Sohye in an hour]
He was gonna ask about you but hesitated. Why didn't you text him or leave a note? You just acted like nothing happened and that made Hoseok concerned.
Damn. When you said you'll help with the wedding preparations, you didn't expect to be leading the way. Apparently, that's Hoseok's request according to the wedding planner. 
You've been giving your all into this, most likely because you want to distract yourself from what happened that night and what will happen in the wedding. You keep thinking of why Hoseok would want you when clearly, he doesn't feel anything for you.
Or does he? 
You weren't sure if you were just imagining him saying "I love Y/N" when his arms were holding you tight after your rendezvous the night before. It must be your subconscious trying to fulfill your innermost desire, for your best friend to love you back.
"Hey, Y/N you alright? You look a little worned out" Jiwoo looked at you worriedly, running her eyes around your face.
Yeah your brother drained tf out of me..
"WHAT?!!" you jerked with her shrieking and then you realized you said that thought out loud and your face flushed with shame.
Fuck.
"Uh-" now you can't look at her eyes, cheeks going red with what you just told her.
fuckfuckfuck
"Omgggg, now I get why" she happily mused that made you raise your eyebrows back at her.
"Wtf why?" you shifted uncomfortably, never before you've been this aloof to Hoseok's sister until now.
"I texted him earlier but he said he's still at home at this time which surprised me" she teased, wiggling her eyebrows at you.
"He's about to get married, you know" you smiled bitterly, gaze focusing on the white wedding dress on display. Would've been lovely if you're the one who's getting married to Hoseok.
"And? It's not like he and Sohye are in a relationship" she huffed. Jiwoo's right but somehow, that didn't change the already creeping guilt inside you.
"Whatever, that's never happening again" you scoffed but she looks at you suspiciously.
"I'm serious, I value marriage and it will be a form of cheating if that happens again after the ceremony so, no" you firmly stated, looking away. You've been planning to distance yourself after the wedding since that would be what's best for both you and Hoseok.
Jiwoo looked at you wistfully, with sympathetic eyes that you've been getting used to from the people around you the moment Hoseok and Sohye's wedding was announced.
 "Y/N, I'm sorry you have to feel this way. I know how much you love him" she replied softly, laced with emotion since you're like a little sister to her, after all she was hoping you'll end up with her little brother.
"It's okay, I'm used to it" you smiled curtly, your expression changing back to neutral like it has always been.
.
Since you've put all your time into the wedding preparations which clearly affected your academic performance, the preparations went smoothly as you planned.
Hoseok's been trying to corner you, but you're silently thankful for the people who keep distracting him because you're clearly not ready to talk to him.
Isn't that what you've always wanted? Now why are you running away? I mean you are going to eventually but you promised you'll be there for him. Fuck it, just a little bit more..
On the night before his wedding, you've stayed in your hotel room again like what you've been doing the entire time when you know Hoseok's around. You didn't even go to the bachelorette party you were clearly invited for and he's having a stag night too.
Around 3am you were awakened by loud knocks of your hotel door and for the sake of other guests on this floor, you dragged your feet and opened the door impulsively. 
Only to see a drunk Hoseok, groggily smiling at you.
"Why are you here? It's already early morning" you hissed and he just giggled in response.
"Wanna see you" he pouted and you gestured to him just in case he'll vomit which is about to happen as you see his face contorted.
"Fuck come here quick!" you're rubbing his back as he releases all remnants of his stomach into the toilet when he staggered.
"Y/N I'm sorry" his voice sounded so broken and you straightened yourself. He's not gonna remember anything in the morning anyways so what's the point.
You didn't answer him but you helped him clean up and before you can even talk to him, he's already knocked out on your bed. Should you call someone to get him? But everyone's asleep now, screw it.
You stayed beside Hoseok, staring at his sleeping face for the last time, the last time you'll be able to be this near to him since he'll be a married man tomorrow. You can't stop your tears as you run your hands through his face.
"I love you Hoseok, I love you so much that I am letting you go" you stopped yourself to cry louder in case it'll wake him up. You wrapped your arms around him, relishing a few hours of selfishness on your own end.
.
The morning comes and you're dreading to let go of Hoseok. He woke up with you already staring at him and you jerked. 
"Here are painkillers, drink that before you go" you handed them to him but he grabbed you wrist instead, silently pleading you to look at him.
"Y/N, let's run away" he croaked. Hoseok actually heard you the night before, heard you letting go of him and it crushed everything in him, hearing your voice so broken because of him and he wants to make you feel better even though you both know how late it is already.
"What? Are you crazy? You're getting married hours from now" you yelled at him. You've never lashed out on him like this but his plan is ridiculous. You're already guilty of sleeping with him and now he wanted to elope?
"I don't care, I just–" a knock from the door made him pause and your eyes widened. Fuck fuck fuck. You and Hoseok looked at each other's eyes full of panic now.
You walked towards the door and prepared yourself for any interrogation when you were met with sleepy eyes and a smirk.
"Wtf do you want Yoongi" you seethed, you haven’t slept properly since you tried to stay awake as much as possible.
After hearing that it's only his friend, Hoseok appeared behind you, with a relief expression.
"You two looked like shit, be thankful I volunteered to get him" he snickered and you glared at him.
"Nothing happened" you answered nonchalantly but Yoongi's teasing smirk is still on so you turned back to Hoseok but then you're suddenly enveloped with a firm hug, with Hoseok's face nuzzling your neck.
"Thank you" he hummed and released you. You can tell through his eyes that he wanted to stay longer and talk to you more but you shake your head.
"Alright man let's go, they've been looking everywhere for you" Yoongi grabbed Hoseok who's still reluctant to leave. 
"Go, Hoseok" you slightly push him towards Yoongi with a serious tone and just when they were about to leave, Jiwoo suddenly appeared in the corner.
“I knew it, I should’ve looked here first. Thank you Yoongi” the boy just nodded back at Jiwoo gave you the "i told you so" look, though not judgmental, you felt the need to clarify to prove your point the last time you talked.
.
Time of the wedding,
Time to let Hoseok go, permanently.
You are the maid of honour so you have no choice but to put on a happy face especially in front of Hoseok's parents who were constantly checking on you during preparations with apprehension.
After the bridesmaids and groomsmen have walked the aisle, it's finally your turn and it fucking sucks since you have to walk alone.
You took a deep breath before raising your chin up, and faced everyone as they looked at you walking up to the altar. However, your eyes are only on Hoseok as you imagine that it was you he's waiting for, not the actual bride behind you.
Hoseok is doing the same thing, ironically. He's imagining that it's you he is marrying, the person he truly loves but it's too late for that so he should just focus on Sohye.
He continued his daydreaming until Jungkook nudged him since the youngest best man is the closest to him than the other 6, breaking his thoughts and facing the reality that Sohye is the bride, not you.
When the officiant asked if there was someone who disagrees with the couple's union, your body wanted to stand up and tell everyone how you really feel. You felt Jiwoo's arms around your shoulders, hoping to provide the comfort that you needed but you shrugged her arms off.
You wouldn't mind usually but you're in her little brother's wedding and you've been refusing to meet Hoseok's eyes until the officiant proceeded with the next part of the ceremony. You can't look at him or else you'll crumble and there's no way you'll embarrass yourself in front of his family and yours.
Surprisingly, your parents came when you invited them. It would usually have to be Hoseok or any of his family members invite them to come though you already have a suspicion that it's not the only reason why.
“Do you Jung Hoseok, promise to love, honor, cherish and protect her and hold only unto her forever more?” this caused you to finally look back at Hoseok. He stayed silent for a few moments which made everyone chatter in whisper but as soon as his eyes found yours, he smiled, full of longing.
"I do"
You closed your eyes as tears fell from them, unable to hold his gaze anymore. It might be improper to look back on the best night of your life but you can’t help it, you just want to hear Hoseok say it again, over and over.
“I love you Y/N” 
Tumblr media
Another morning of Hoseok waking up without you in his life. Tears ran down the sides of his face when he remembered, but this one is longer and the clearest of them all.
That dream's too vivid for him to handle. He smiled bitterly as he remembered all the memories, starting from the beginning up until the shift of your friendship that severed you both.
Chuckling pathetically at himself to even have the audacity to think of you when he's the very main reason you were gone. He just misses you so much. 
In your absence, he indulged himself into alcohol only because he remembers you nagging him to be mindful of his tolerance. He knows it's not good for him, but it's the only way to forget his pain of losing you.
It's not like he's being irresponsible to the point of getting piss drunk, he just drinks when he's alone because that's when the thought of you creeps back into his mind.
Getting up to face another day of wallowing, he decided to come down to the basement to do some cleaning. The mini studio, the only thing he has of you left. This is the reason why he didn't wanna sell the house in the first place.
He then went to a nearby speaker and set the song you both choreographed ages ago, another memory coming up, haunting him.
"Alright that's it, it's been a minute! Surely that's enough right?" you whined at Hoseok, heaving since you've been dancing for like hours now.
"It's less than a minute! Come on, we're just doing the extended chorus" he giggled and you rolled your eyes.
"But yeah, we don't have to do the whole song" his eyes trained on you and the folded Led Zeppelin shirt on the chair. You followed his gaze through and found him eyeing your precious shirt.
"I'm gonna wear it when we're filming this dance, it's from my grandma remember? And I'm gonna pair it with those red orange pants you gifted me on my birthday" you fondly explained to him. 
Hoseok never took you for being sentimental since you always act dismissive when you receive gifts from him.
The voice of Troye Sivan echoing throughout the room brought him back to the present reality. He still feels you around the house, especially here so he went in front of the mirror and readied himself.
He looked back at his reflection in the mirror, instantly seeing you beside him with an affectionate smile. He lets himself give in to his imaginations, just this time. Starting the moves smoothly, Hoseok will always remember this choreo out of all the ones he made because it's you.
Always have been you but he was a coward for not acting on his feelings earlier. The song ended and he fell into his knees, hitting the floor while another gut-wrenching sobs escaped his mouth.
You laid out your feelings for him but he doubted himself when he clearly feels the same so now here he is. 
Still in grief full of regrets..
Still wishing you'll come back to him..
Still clinging to the ghost of you..

AHHH HIHI i ship with that clown version of springtrap!!! is there any chance i could get some sweet sweet hcs for the yan clown bunny?
I have literally been thinking about this all night!! It isn't hcs but. I hope it's still good úwù
Also i knows he's not fluffy but. The clown skin looks like it is,, let me have this
---
Special Delivery - Yandere!Clown Springtrap x Reader
It was an interesting idea - being able to order an actual, official Fazbear Entertainment animatronic and send it straight to your house. Apparently, it was for entertainment, company, decoration, or, as the website had stated: "Fun, fun, fun!" 
It was obviously too good to be true, looking back on it now.
And it sure is too bad that hindsight is always 20/20.
It was an impulse purchase, you admit. The thought of owning an actual Freddy Fazbear robot was too tempting to turn up, especially because it was oddly cheap, considering you were buying a fully operational animatronic. Perhaps they had gotten enough customers that they didn't really need to make it too pricey? Or maybe the original cost was always that cheap as a way as to attract a larger consumer audience?
Either way, you had decided on ordering it to get some of that sweet, sweet dopamine. The Freddy Fazbear franchise had always been close to your heart, and it was nice to see them expanding their business outside of restaurants. 
Your eyes lit up as you looked through their catalog, spotting SpringBonnie! Oh, he had always been your favorite! Though, he,wasn't around for long in the franchise - for some reason, they had permanently discontinued the SpringBonnie model, along with FredBear. Seeing him as a purchasable model made you grin, eyes crinkling as you figured this was a way to reintroduce the older models back into the franchise - and what better way to support such an effort than to order one yourself?
Clicking on SpringBonnie, you were taken to a second page. Alongside the origin model, there were other different "skins" you could order. A purple, "toxic" skin, a "flaming" skin, and… The newest one, marked as a "special delivery", for some reason making it cheaper - a Clown SpringBonnie. You certainly weren't expecting this, but… Ah, what the hell. The model was admittedly rather cute, cheaper than the others, and you were treating yourself! So, you added it to your cart and checked out.
The next few days past just as expected - You waited patiently for your package to arrive, going through the motions, thinking back on your purchase and trying not to regret it. God, you hoped it was at least somewhat intelligent, or otherwise you'd really have nothing to do with it and would most likely get bored of it in a few minutes… Oh, God, you hoped you wouldn't regret this.
So, perhaps that's why you were so hesitant to bring the large box placed at your stoop inside - that, and it was rather heavy. As you set it down inside your living room, a feel of foreboding washes over you. You had assumed that it was a gut-feeling of confirmation, that this purchase was stupid, you knew you'd regret it, this was a stupid idea-
Your forcibly dragged out of your train of thought when a large, fluffy arm bursts forth from within side the box. A scream rips from your throat, your legs turning to jelly as the box falls apart, revealing…
Exactly what you ordered. An oddly fluffy, spotted SpringBonnie model that towered over you. It looked around the room, as though it was taking in it's surroundings. It's head tilted down, lifting up it's arms and moving it's fingers, as if to study itself. Its eyes held a light within them, making it appear oddly intelligent.
"Heh, not bad." Oh. You hadn't expected it to speak - especially not in a gravelly, British accent. "Vanny has good taste."
Your mouth dropped open, horror washing over you. What the fuck?
"What the fuck…?" You choked out in a hoarse whisper, almost too scared to find your voice.
It's(?) eyes settle on you, and the machine appears to grin even wider. "Scared, are you?" It asked.
All you could do was whimper in response, too afraid to actually speak. A chuckle emanated from the robot(?)
"There's no need to be afraid, darling," THe SpringBonnie cooed, raising a hand to pet at the fluff of his chest. "Aren't I so cute and fluffy?"
It laughed darkly at it's own joke, but all you could do in reply was tremble with fear, legs just about to finally give up on you.
"So, you're supposed to be my "owner", huh? Cute." The SpringBonnie let out an amused scoff, slowly stalking toward you. You, however, were frozen, too scared to move. "I think I'll keep you."
The thing eventually stood mere inches away, towering over you. Grinning.
It (he?) rasped. "Do you know why they call me "Springtrap?""
You blinked. Your heart pounded in your chest. 
You shook your head no.
"Because I get'cha!" You screamed as Springtrap suddenly lunged forward, taking you into his arms and- … Pressing you flush against him. And as much as you waited for the end, it never came.
Above you, Springtrap chuckled. An odd purring sound emanated from within him as he spoke, voice much softer as he pet at your hair. "And when I do, I never let you go."

Girl’s Got You Down pt 3
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Square Filled: Fireman Carry Ship:  Spencer Reid x Reader Rating : Mature A/N: So this story was literally a single shot but now its sparked a whole thing.�� I hope you enjoy.  Here is the Masterlist if you need to catch up first. Warnings: pregnancy, domestic argument, labor, birth (graphic-ish), Angst, Cliffhanger, Pregnancy complications Summary: Reid is concerned when his girlfriend starts acting weird.  The team steps in to help him out. Word Count: 1,115 Created for @spencerreidbingo​
“Spence, I’ve called like three times.  Please this isn’t the time to ignore my calls. MMmm, call me please,”  You whimpered as you felt the pressure that had settled between your hips tighten.
“Derek,”  You groaned as you called your friend.  “I need you to get Reid and bring him here.  Ah.”
“Hey!  What’s going on?”  Morgan seemed to leap to consciousness at your hum of discomfort.  “Where is Spencer?”
“He went home for the night, and now he’s not answering his phone.  I need him,”  You relaxed as the contraction eased and you looked at your clock.
“I’ll get him, how far apart are your contractions?”  You don’t know how he knew, but Derek was sharp and had known you for a long time.
“Eight to ten minutes.  But I’m only supposed to be worried if they last for more than an hour.”  You said taking a deep breath, anticipating his next question.
“How long have you been having them?”  He asked.  You heard movement over the phone and a pair of keys jingle.
“Forty- five minutes.  But the first two I counted were fifteen minutes apart,”  You said trying to relax your friend.
“So they’ve gotten closer together?”  He asked louder than you had expected, you jumped and dropped your cellphone.
“Damnit!”  You shouted in frustration.  You stood up and grabbed your phone.  “Sorry I dropped- Derek,”  You gasped as you heard the popped then felt the gush of fluid between your legs.
“Hey!!! Stay with me, you okay?  Was it another contraction already?”  Derek’s voice torn you out of your terror.
“My water broke,”  you said before moving as quickly as you could to the bathroom.
“I’m on my way, I’ll get Reid.  Call your doctor,”  Derek ordered over the phone.  You mumbled something that resembled agreement before hanging up.  You managed to get into your bathtub and just sat there breathing through your contractions.  They had gotten closer together and the pain was almost unbearable when you heard the front door to your home slam open.
“Lil’ Mama you here!?”  Derek shouted.  You heard his shoes as he ran up your stairs.  You would have responded but you were focused on not breathing at that moment in time.  “Oh shit,”  He muttered when he pushed the bathroom door open.
Sweat covered your body and you were shaking with the effort of not pushing as the pressure between your legs was almost unbearable.
“It’s okay, I’ve got you,”  Derek said as he came over and helped you get out of the tub.  “I called an ambulance when I saw that no one was here with you yet.”
“Where’s Spence?”  You whimpered, then grunted low in your throat as a contraction rang down your legs through your toes.
“He’s almost here,”  Derek said as he helped you lean over the end of the bathtub.  “Where’s your kit?”  You pointed to under the bathroom sink.  Derek pulled out a small black box that you brought with you to every case you worked on.  It had various supplies that you used as well as gloves of various sizes.  He pulled out a pair and slid them on his hands.
“Ready to meet you, baby?”  Morgan asked as you felt him give you the world's shortest cervical test.  “They're almost here.”
“I can’t,”  You panted as your contraction ended.  Tears fell down your cheeks. “It’s too soon, and he’s not here.”
“Remember that case we worked in San Antonio?”  Derek chuckled, you nodded your head.  “You told that mom that she didn’t have the option to not be ready.  It wasn’t up to her, right?”
“Fuck You!”  You screamed as the urge to push took over and you bared down.
“That’s it, that’s a girl, keep going,”  Derek counted to ten and you felt his fingers applying counter pressure.  The contraction ended and you let out a breath of defeat as the pressure was still there.  “You’re doing good, I saw the head.  Almost done.”  Derek’s hand rubbed your back to try and help you through the pain.
“Derek!”  Spencer shouted from downstairs.  You laughed as you sobbed harder.  He had made it in time.
“Upstairs!”  Derek called.  You tensed up again and started to push, signaling Derek to count again.  He reached around and grabbed your hand, guiding it between your legs.  “Head’s right here, focus up,”  Derek ordered as you started panting through the worst part.
“I’m here.  I’m sorry,”  Reid said as he used his long legs to step past the two of you and squat in front of you in the tub.  He brushed your hair out of your face.  “I’m sorry.  I shouldn’t have left.”
“Shut Up and kiss me,”  You shouted at him.  He looked a bit surprised but wasted no time pressing a gentle kiss to your lips.
“This is cute and all,”  Morgan interrupted your kiss as another contraction mounted.  “Keep her up,”  Derek said to Spencer.  You gritted your teeth but couldn’t keep the scream in as your first twin slipped out and Derek caught it.
“It’s a girl,”  Derek said.  He fiddled with your kit and the baby, and then you heard the high pitched shriek of her first breathe.  You laughed as Spencer helped you onto your butt so that you could see her.
“She’s so pink,”  Reid said as he reached over your shoulder to touch her hand.
“This is the emergency medical response team!”  A voice shouted from downstairs.
“Grab a towel,”  Derek said to Spencer as he picked you up and lifted you fireman style.  You groaned in pain as the carry was not optimal to the way your legs wanted to be spread open.  “Hold on to that baby, I’ll take you down there.”
“We’re here,”  You moaned as you got down the stairs.
“So we missed all the fun?”  The EMT joked to try and ease the tension and stress of the situation.
“Actually they're twins,”  Spencer said with a dorky grin, as he saw your daughter in your hands again.
“Well then let’s get going,”  The EMT said ushering you all into the ambulance.  Derek said he would drive himself there and grab your bag.
Despite the fast speed of the ambulance, your second baby was unwilling to wait for the hospital.
“It’s a boy,”  The EMT said handing the baby to you, while Spencer held your daughter.  “Well done, mama.”
“They’re perfect,”  You whispered exhausted.  The other EMT reacted instantly and grabbed your son before your hands fell away from him.
“She’s hemorrhaging!”  the EMT who had delivered your son said as he grabbed some supplies and ducked between your legs.
“Hurry!”  Spencer shouted up at the driver.

we’re just like kevin bacon!
prompt: for @bricksatanakinswindow​ ‘s halloween writing challenge! this was initially inspired by "mortal enemies accidentally showing up in matching costumes every fucking year" but once i started writing it kind of snowballed from there and i ended up with this lmao
ship: jj maybank x fem!reader
word count: 4.6k+ (i think this is the shortest thing i’ve ever written lol)
warnings n stuff: childhood enemies to lovers, swearing, mention of underage drinking, halloween shenanigans, makin' out, smut (not too explicit but i still think it's spicy enough to need an 18+ warning), jj and the reader being cute lil nerds and quoting movies back and forth, the author blatantly using some of her personal favorite movies/shows as inspiration for costumes, the author also making her opinions on ghostbusters clear (instead of the human trash can peter venkman, stan the adorable dork known as ray stantz for clear skin)
a/n: this was hella fun to write and i already have so many more halloween fic ideas bouncing around in my head (it's spoopy season, y'all!). title of this fic comes from guardians of the galaxy 😊
Tumblr media
Of three things in life you were certain.
One, you loved Halloween more than any other holiday of the year; after all, you and your twin brother Mason were born just after one AM on October 31st so you could say a penchant for all things spooky was in your blood.
Two, Sarah Cameron was your best friend. Being neighbors your whole lives, the two of you were thick as thieves and spent almost every day together, much to the annoyance of both your brother and hers; as much as you loved Mason, sometimes you wished Sarah was your twin instead of him and you knew without question the blonde girl would trade Rafe for you in a heartbeat (with little to no guilt, in fact.). 
And three, you absolutely hated JJ Maybank. You'd been at the top of each other's shit lists ever since you were both six years old, when he made fun of you for the stutter you'd had back then and you dumped a full milkshake over his head as payback, and even as time passed and you grew out of your stutter, your disdain for the blond pogue only grew stronger. He was infuriating, plain and simple, and the mere mention of his name made steam come out of your ears. 
The boy was just good at being annoying and seemed to love pushing everyone's buttons, yours especially, and always found ways to get under your skin without fail every single time your paths crossed (which was way too often for your liking, but running in the same friend group made it hard to avoid each other). It became an unspoken thing, the great Y/L/N-Maybank feud, with both of you trying your hardest to piss the other off until one of your mutual friends or your brother broke it up and pulled you to opposite corners of the metaphorical ring to take a breather before the next round.
You'd never admit it but deep down you kind of liked it. You liked being at the center of his attention (granted, it was antagonistic in nature but it was attention all the same), his bright blue eyes following your every move whenever you were within his sights and you liked that you were in his thoughts even when you weren't around, a fact proven to you by the tiny notebook Kiara carried around in her pocket recording how many times he mentioned your name. Knowing you lived rent free in his mind brought you an embarrassingly high level of satisfaction that you'd absolutely deny feeling if anyone ever asked, just as you'd deny the fact that he lived rent free in your mind, too.
...At least for most of the year. Everyone, including JJ, knew that to you Halloween was a damn-near sacred time. He knew never to mess with you during the weeks leading up to the holiday and definitely never on the day itself, lest he want yet another milkshake dumped over his blond head. He knew that, the whole damn island knew he did and yet...somehow, some way, he managed to get your blood boiling every. single. year. And you, like a masochistic idiot, let him. 
It all started when you were twelve.
You, Mason, and your friends were finally old enough to go to the annual youth party held on the sprawling lawn of the Island Club, an event you'd been looking forward to attending every Halloween since you were eight. Of course, you were excited for the dancing and games and food but the thing you couldn't wait the most for was the costume contest, a chance to show off your skills and prove to everyone on the island that Y/N Y/L/N was the undisputed queen of Halloween.
So what if your hopes were a little too high (considering you were only twelve and going up against kids ranging from your age to fifteen), you were still gonna give it your all; you spent weeks perfecting not only your costume but your brother's as well with your mom, helping her cut fabric and sew zippers, styling wigs and painting props until everything was perfect. 
"Oh my God, Y/N!" Sarah, dressed as Cinderella, yelled from the passenger seat of her dad's SUV when they swung by to pick you up. "You look amazing!"
"So do you!" You said, slipping into the back seat in between a miserable-looking Rafe as Sarah Sanderson ("I lost a bet," he explained with a scowl) and Mason, holding your mini R2-D2 on your lap. Was it kind of cheesy, dressing up as the most iconic twins in movie history? Probably, but you really didn't care because Leia Organa was a total boss bitch and Mason was practically over the moon that he got to be his ultimate silver screen hero and swing around his very own lightsaber as Luke Skywalker.
"The Force is strong with you two." Ward joked, earning an eye roll from both of his children as he drove to the Island Club to drop you off. Rafe immediately disappeared into the crowd to meet up with Topper and Kelce and the three of you went off to find your own friends, skirting around the edge of the party toward the snack tables, also known as the most likely place for them to be.  
You spotted Kiara first, looking like an actual princess in her Tiana costume and waved, smiling when she waved back and beckoned you over as she said something to Pope, dressed as Albert Einstein, that made him start laughing hysterically.
"What's so funny?" You asked, reaching between them to grab two handfuls of pretzels and immediately dropping one into your brother's outstretched palm, careful to keep the sleeve of your white dress away from the bright orange-iced cupcakes on the table. 
The two of them exchanged a look that instantly made you realize something was Up™ but before either of them could answer, Mason asked around a mouthful of pretzels, "Where're Tweedledee and Tweedledum?"
"J, why didn't we think of that?" John B's voice came from somewhere over your shoulder and when you turned to face him, you nearly dropped both the droid cradled in the crook of your elbow and the snacks in your hand. Not because of John B and his hilarious Chewbacca costume but because of the fact that JJ Maybank, the one person you hated the most on the whole entire island, was dressed as Han freakin' Solo. 
"Yikes." Someone muttered behind you -it sounded like Sarah but you weren't really sure- and Mason nearly choked on his pretzels as he tried and failed miserably to keep himself from laughing. 
"You've gotta be kidding me." You huffed, rolling your eyes as JJ crossed his arms and glared in your direction, blaster hanging from the holster on his hip.
"Listen, Princess, I'm not too happy about this, either."
"Oh, shut up, you nerfherder."
"Who you calling-" Mason and John B cut in and pulled you both in opposite directions before either of you could turn it into a shouting match, your brother physically grabbing you around the waist and carrying you off while the latter caught the back of JJ's vest and dragged him away. Despite their best efforts to keep you apart, you ran into each other more times than you could count and spent a minute or two squabbling like cats and dogs each time until one of them intervened once again. It was childish, it was immature, and it was fun, even though you'd never, ever admit it. Ever.
You didn't win the costume contest that year in the way you'd imagined at all. Still, first place in the group category was a win in your book and it felt good, even if one of the members of your unintentional Star Wars posse was someone who tested every bit of patience you had. The four of you split the cash prize and you went home 25 bucks richer, stashing it away for next year's costume and pushing the thought of accidentally matching with your mortal enemy from your mind. 
You had no idea this thing was only just beginning.
The next year, you let Sarah and Kiara convince you to match with them and the three of you rolled up to the party as the Pink Ladies -you as Rizzo, Sarah as Sandy, Kiara as Frenchy- only to run right into the boys, your brother included, dressed as the T-Birds. John B, perfectly in character as Danny, immediately whisked Sarah off to dance while Pope, the most adorably awkward Doody you'd ever seen, went to grab some snacks with Kiara, leaving you stuck with the bane of your existence as, of course, fucking Kenickie (Mason, as Sonny, dipped sometime before then without you noticing). The two of you spent the whole evening glaring at each other and hurling insults back and forth at breakneck speed, more in character than either of you'd ever want to acknowledge and for the second year in a row, you won first place in the group costume category.
At fourteen, you went as Princess Buttercup and JJ showed up as Westley, fake sword in hand as he followed you around all night like an annoying fly, sarcastically drawling "as you wish" every time you so much as glanced in his direction. Your brother, dressed as Inigo Montoya, nearly pissed himself laughing and you wanted to snatch both of their prop swords and shove them up their asses. You came in first again in the group costume contest and begrudgingly split the prize three ways. 
At fifteen, you worked hard on a Dr. Ellie Sattler costume from Jurassic Park, he strolled in as a disheveled Dr. Alan Grant with mud splattered boots and tattered clothes, and you really regretted not taking the offer to be the Tai to Sarah's Cher and Kiara's Dionne. Once again, Mason laughed so hard his face turned red and you were tempted to grab the sword he was holding and beat him over the head with it, not just for laughing at you but also for the completely atrocious Jack Sparrow costume he wore. To your absolute horror, you and JJ won the contest in the duo category and you wanted to melt into the ground when they called you onto the makeshift stage to collect your reward. 
When you were sixteen, you and your friends "graduated" to the party held for the older teens inside the club itself. With costume rules a little more lax than they were for the younger kids, you decided to go as (an only slightly sexy) Janine Melnitz, complete with a prop telephone you answered every so often with a loud "Ghostbusters, whaddya want?!" much to the embarrassment of Mason, who was once again dressed as Luke Skywalker, this time in the fatigues he wore while training on Dagobah in The Empire Strikes Back.
You strutted into the party in your heels and pencil skirt only to nearly fall flat on your face when you caught sight of JJ in a terrible black wig and glasses, proton pack strapped to his back and 'Spengler' printed on the front of his jumpsuit. Your brother winced when you all but screeched "Again?!" right into his ear and grabbed your elbow, dragging you over to an empty table and depositing you into an open chair.
"There's no way this is a coincidence anymore! He could've picked Venkman, with all the womanizing and lowkey being a creep and thinking he's God's gift to mankind? It would've been the perfect choice! He's not nearly adorable or dorky enough to be Stantz or sassy enough to be Winston-"
"Jesus, you have a lot of feelings about Ghostbusters," Mason muttered, rolling his eyes when you shot him a withering glare.
"Shut up! Listen to me, there's no way in hell Maybank randomly decided to be, out of alllll the 'Busters, Egon fuckin' Spengler, okay? He had to have somehow known I was coming as Janine and did it just to piss me off!"
Your brother heaved a deep, heavy sigh that made you want to smack him and fixed you with a deadpan stare. "Or, have you pulled your head out of your own ass long enough to think that maybe you're just becoming...predictable?"
You really did smack him then, hard on his exposed shoulder and he yelped, scowling as he rubbed at the red mark you left behind. "Ow! What the hell, bitch?!"
"Don't you dare call me predictable, you dickhead! I pride myself on my costumes being very unique and unexpected -you know, out of the box!"
"Hate to break it to you but they're not really out of the box if Maybank shows up in a matching one every single year." He said with an infuriating, shit-eating grin, patting your shoulder before straightening the plush Yoda strapped to his back. "I'm gonna go get some food, wanna come with?"
Still miffed at his comment, you shoved his arm away and glanced down at your lap, ignoring your brother's sassy "your loss" as he headed toward the snack tables. Not even a minute passed by before his empty seat was taken and you groaned when you looked up to see who it was, your eyes meeting a pair of bright blues behind tacky, oversized glasses. 
"Hi, Janine."
"...Egon."
The two of you sat in silence after that, watching the dancing crowd under the flashing neon lights and sparkling disco ball until you saw him turn to face you out of the corner of your eye.
"Why Janine?" 
"Huh?" You turned to face him, too, one eyebrow raised in a perfect arch as he gestured toward your costume.
"Why did you dress up as Janine, Y/L/N?"
"I've always liked her sassiness and 'I like to play racquetball.'" You offered a casual shrug of your shoulders and carefully stuck a finger under your wig to scratch an annoying itch above your ear. "Why'd you pick Egon, Maybank?"
"He's my favorite." He answered simply with his own shrug, shooting you a genuine, real smile that you, for who knows what reason, found yourself returning without a second thought. "Smart, hilarious -plus, 'I like to collect spores, mold, and fungus.'"
For the first time in your life, your eyes rolled out of amusement and not annoyance at something that JJ Maybank said and, to your complete surprise, it kind of felt...right. "Really? I'd have pegged you for a Venkman stan."
"Are you kidding? He's the worst!" 
Never in your wildest dreams did you ever think you'd sit across from your hated enemy, not only having a civil -hell, downright enjoyable- conversation but actually smiling right along with him, laughing at his jokes and doing your best to ignore the sudden flutter in your stomach each time you caught sight of his slightly crooked teeth when he grinned. You didn't even notice when your brother returned with Kiara, dressed as Moana, at his side and two heaping plates of snacks in his hands until his chair scraped gratingly across the hardwood floor. 
"Kie, are you seeing this? Pigs must be flying 'cause they're actually smiling at each other." Mason said, cackling as Kiara turned to squint out the window.
"Yeah, I think I see one or two soaring around out there." She giggled and sent a mischievous wink in your direction. With your face feeling like it was on fire, you flipped them both the bird and took off, disappearing into the crowd and leaving all your traitorous, confusing thoughts about JJ behind with the boy himself; it was Rafe's last party at the Club and he owed you a dance anyway, but even as your best friend's older brother, cute as hell in his Thor costume, playfully twirled you around the floor to the Ghostbusters theme song, you felt more than your partner's blue eyes on you.
To no one's surprise, you and JJ won the duo category for the second year in a row and when you joined him onstage to collect your prize and didn't feel like you'd rather die than be up there by his side, you suddenly realized you were only certain about two things in life instead of three. 
At seventeen, you were confident you and JJ wouldn't be matching for once (after last year, though, you were kind of thinking it wouldn't be that bad of a thing). You'd gone cult classic for your costume, pulling inspiration from your mom's favorite move, 1999's The Mummy, and put together a screen-accurate Evelyn Carnahan in her iconic black dress, including a handmade Book of the Dead and matching key. You blackmailed Mason with pictures of him, drunk as a skunk and dressed in your Janine costume from the previous year, and got him to go as Jonathan, complete with a pith helmet and prop bottle of The Glenlivet.  
But, as always, JJ managed to surprise you. You literally ran right into his chest and if it wasn't for his arms instantly wrapping tight around your waist, you would've bit it hard.
"Whoa, careful there," He said, one hand keeping you close while the other moved to help you hold the book in your arms. "'The Book of the Dead? Are you sure you wanna be messing around with this thing?'"
Of course he'd make the perfect Rick O'Connell, you thought as you playfully raised one eyebrow and curled your fingers around the strap of the gun holster draped over his shoulder. "'It's just a book. No harm ever came from reading a book.'"
Mason was a little too in character as well as he dramatically rolled his eyes and wandered off, muttering "puh-lease" under his breath and shooting Sarah a conspiratorial wink that you didn't see. The blonde girl glanced between the two of you -arms still around each other and identical smiles on your faces- and grinned. The party flew by in a blur of movie quotes, laughs, and more dances than you could count and by the time you made it home, 50 bucks in the pocket of your dress and another group costume win under your belt, you were almost positive you never actually hated JJ Maybank in the first place.
Now at eighteen, you pulled out all the stops for your last party at the Island Club. You'd spent the last few months slaving over your costume, sewing custom pieces, hand-crafting your prop, and spending way too much money on body makeup and a wig but when you saw the final product in the mirror, you knew it was all worth it. You were ready to slay the competition this year and take home first place for the final time.
Mason, indifferent as always about the contest but willing to do anything to keep those pictures from seeing the light of day, didn't protest one bit when you forced him into the matching costume you'd made for him -in typical Mason fashion, he liked that he didn't have to wear a shirt and could show off his muscles- and spent a few hours perfecting his makeup.
You felt on top of the world when you walked into the party that night as Gamora, a replica of her Godslayer sword in hand and skin painted a perfect shade of green, followed by your brother as Drax, already flexing for anyone and everyone looking his way. The rest of your friends came to win as well: John B and Sarah as Flynn Rider and Rapunzel, Kiara as Eleven, Pope as T'Challa, and, of course, JJ as Peter Quill, Baby Groot perched on his shoulder and twin blasters at his hips. 
"Lookin' good, Gamora!" He called over the music, shimmying his way over to you with some dance moves that would impress Star-Lord himself.
"Flattery will get you nowhere, Quill." You replied in a sing-song voice, even as you took his outstretched hand and let him pull you into the crowd of bodies hopping up and down to some terrible EDM beat under the twirling disco ball.
"It got you out here with me, didn't it?"
You rolled your eyes and hooked the sword to your belt before stepping closer and draping your arms around his neck, twirling your painted fingers in his hair. "Just remember, 'I know who you are, Peter Quill. And I'm not some starry-eyed waif here to succumb to your pelvic sorcery.'"
You should've known you spoke too soon the second you saw the spark in JJ's eyes that all but screamed 'wanna bet?'
And that's how you found yourself in the middle of the single hottest make out session you'd ever had the pleasure of participating in an hour later: back pressed against the locked door of someone's deserted office, legs wrapped tight around his waist and his hands hooked under your ass, both your sword and his blasters abandoned on the floor at his feet, and he was either a sinfully good kisser or trying really, really hard to blow your mind.  
"I'm not gonna end up green after this, am I?" He mumbled against your mouth before trailing his lips along your jaw and you breathed a laugh, tightening your grip on his hair.
"This is professional makeup, dumbass. It's gonna take more than some kissing to smudge it."
"I'm down for some smudging if you are." 
You pulled him back for another kiss in response and gasped into his mouth when he walked across the room, one strong arm reaching out to sweep whatever was on the desk to the floor before setting you down on it.
"Confident, are we?" 
JJ smirked at your breathless question and the way you hooked your ankles around the backs of his thighs to pull him closer. "So is that a yes to the smudging?"
"Just shut up and kiss me." 
He did -very well, you might add- and you kissed him back, untangling your hands from his hair to slide them under his jacket instead; you helped him push it off his shoulders and it had barely hit the ground along with poor Baby Groot before your fingers were tugging his shirt from the waistband of his pants.  
"Someone's impatient." He teased, leaning back just far enough to let you pull it over his head and toss it somewhere behind you.
"Someone doesn't know how to stop talking." You whispered your reply low in his ear and then trailed your lips down his neck, smiling in satisfaction at the tremble in his voice when you kissed the purple mark you'd left behind earlier.
"N-never was very good at that." 
"'You should've learned.'"
"'I don't learn, it's one of my issues.'"
One of his hands gripped your wig, pulling your head back a little roughly -you'd have so been into that if it had been your real hair he pulled- and you winced at the way the bobby pins holding it it place tugged painfully at your roots. "Ow, not so hard!"
"Wait, what the fuck? I thought you were wearing a wig!" 
"I am but it's still pinned to my actual hair!"
"Sorry, but how the hell was I supposed to know that?"
The sight of JJ's face slowly turning red made the butterflies in your stomach go haywire and so you just shook your head, mumbling "don't worry about it," before pressing your lips to his once again. He was gentler this time with the pulling and you dug your nails into his bare shoulders at the thrill of his mouth against the exposed column of your throat, leaning back further and further until you laid flat on the desk.
His fingers had just unbuttoned your pants when your phone started to ring from your pocket, blaring the Star Wars theme you had set as your twin's ringtone. 
"Mason's timing is impeccable," JJ said sarcastically, chuckling as you clamped a palm over his mouth and answered the call.
"What the hell do you want?"
"Jesus, no need to be pissy!" Mason loudly replied over the applause crackling through the phone's speaker. "I just thought you'd like to know that we just won best group costume with Maybank. Again." 
The blond winked at the mention of his last name and pulled your hand away from his mouth, pinning it to the desk beside you with one of his while the other started tugging your pants down over your hips.
"Oh, that's cool, Mase-" You inhaled sharply when his lips touched the edge of your underwear, so close to where you wanted him most but at the same time so far away, and your fingers held your phone in a white-knuckled grip. "But I-I'm kind of in the middle of doing someone -something!- right now."
"Smooth," JJ said, not even trying to be quiet as he released your pinned hand to finish pulling your boots off, along with your tight leather pants that he casually tossed aside. "And I knew you weren't green under these!" 
Your laugh quickly turned into a gasp when his fingers hooked under your panties and pulled those off, too, and the touch of his tongue against the skin of your inner thigh sent white-hot lightning racing through your veins; the phone slipped from your grip, falling with a clunk onto the desk as your fingers tangled in his hair and he lifted one of your knees over his shoulder.
"Okay, I'm hanging up now! I already know you're getting laid but I don't need to hear it." Mason's loud grumble drifted up through the speaker and if you weren't so preoccupied with the boy between your thighs doing some downright wicked things to you with his mouth, you might've noticed that your brother didn't actually sound that grumpy before he ended the call and your phone's screen went dark, right as you lost control of your voice.
"Fuck me."
"Funny, I thought that's what I was doing?" You felt more than heard his response against you and a shiver ran down your spine when his bright blue eyes flicked up to met yours in the dim light of the office.
"You know what I meant, Maybank."
"Trust me, Y/L/N, I know. Question is: where do you want me?"
You tugged on his hair, grinning wolfishly at the way his eyes fluttered closed and a low moan rose from his throat. "Everywhere in this damn room, starting right here."
"I was hoping you’d say that.”
- Back at the party, Mason looked up and met Sarah's gaze, both of her eyebrows raised expectantly as she asked, "Well?"
He took his time slipping his phone back into his pocket before giving her a quick nod, grinning triumphantly when she immediately burst into gleeful giggles.  
"Yes! I just knew they had a thing for each other! Mortal enemies, my ass."
"I think that was the very first time in my sister's life that she didn't give a shit about the contest." Mason said and reached over to snag a cookie from her plate, chuckling when she pushed his hand away from the chocolate chip ones and toward the peanut butter. "We couldn't have pulled this off without you. I mean, making sure they showed up in matching costumes every year? Genius, Sarah. Absolutely genius." 
The blonde girl grabbed her own cookie with a wink. "Think they'll ever figure it out?"
Your brother just threw his head back and laughed. "I hope not! I wanna save that story for my best man speech at their wedding."

Alright lately i’ve been having really bad migraines and I just started thinking about how good it is to read about light sensitivity when it comes to them— So i was wondering if maybe you’d write something with Dakota having a really bad migraine, light sensitivity and all that good stuff, and he’s trying to convince blair it’s not that bad but then he gets sick from the pain and well....she’s not so convinced anymore. I hope you’re doing good!!✨✨
Thanks for the request, I had a lot of fun with it! A while ago I wrote a fic with Dakota and Blair on a cruiseship, and this is the same trip. Takes place on a cruise :)
----------------------------
When Blair returned from the bathroom, she found Dakota with his head on the table. He wrapped his arms around his head as a pillow and appeared to be sleeping. But he wasn’t sleeping. His back rose and fell quite rapidly from his heavy breathing. From within the cave that he created, he tried to block out the noise of the room. The music and chatter was overwhelming.
They were in a club-like room with a few tables against the wall and a dance floor in the center. It was loud and the lights were set up to beam around the space. Dakota stuck out like a sore thumb compared to the other vacationers who were laughing and grinding up against each other. It would have looked fun if Dakota were able to even spare a glance at the scene.
Blair put her hand on Dakota’s back. His shirt was damp with sweat which wouldn’t have seemed out of place if Dakota had gone up to dance at least once. But nope. Not long after arriving at the club, Dakota guarded their table with his life. He never left his seat even when Blair asked him to dance. “What’s wrong with you, Kota?” Blair raised her voice to be heard over the music.
Upon feeling a hand on his back and hearing his girlfriend’s voice, Dakota shot up. He had only planned on resting his head for a minute while Blair went to the washroom. The plan certainly wasn’t to look like a buzzkill when Blair came back. And the plan definitely hadn’t been to rest his head and forget about time and space. But that’s what happened. As soon as Dakota found a semblance of darkness within his arms, he started to drift out of his body.
He dragged his hand down his face and tried to pump life back into his body. The strobe lights made him wince as he spoke to Blair. “I have a bit of a headache.”
That was one hell of an understatement. Dakota felt like all the blood in his skull was pooling right behind his forehead and pushing against his eyes. With each sharp slash of the lights across his vision, he wondered when the blood was going to start bursting through. Already his eyes were bloodshot with how much he’d been rubbing them.
Dakota wasn’t usually prone to migraines, but he felt this one coming on even before they got to the club. But Blair wanted to try all the activities that the ship had to offer, so he let the man stamp his hand and walked into the rave. At the beginning, he hoped that the pain would go away. Now he just hoped that the pain wouldn’t get worse.
Blair seemed to wait a moment before speaking. Her attention got snagged by the song that started playing. “Uh…I might have…ibuprofen back in the room.”
“No, that’s okay,” Dakota said quickly. He could see that Blair wanted to stay. She hadn’t even sat back down at her chair because there was too much energy in her limbs. She’s so cute, he thought. He wanted to join her on the floor but the thought of getting up made his stomach turn. “Go dance. I’m going to get us something to drink. What do you want?”
“I want you to dance with me.” Blair was slowing inching closer to the center of the room. She took the question seriously when Dakota’s face remained neutral. “But I guess I’ll have whatever you’re getting.”
“I’m getting water.” There was no chance that Dakota would be drinking anything else. His stomach would surely team up with his aching head. Though he suspected that that was already happening.
“Oh…you sure? They have some pretty cool drinks here.”
Dakota didn’t have the energy or the mental capacity to have this conversation. “…Blair.” It sounded more exasperated than he wanted but there was nothing he could do. There was only so much fake-it-till-you-make-it that he could muster.
Blair’s face dropped. “Okay fine…get me a water too.” A pout came across her face for a second before concern took over. Dakota was already gone, but she knew that he felt worse than he was letting on. He wasn’t acting like himself. For the time being, Blair danced but it wasn’t as fun.
The lineup for drinks was extremely long. Dakota stood there for as long as he could. At one point he closed his eyes to get a break from the flashing reds and yellows. It wasn’t until a stranger tapped him on the shoulder that he realized that the line had moved forward. He was still so far away from getting the drinks. Eventually, Dakota gave up because every part of his body hurt. He felt his blood pumping in his ears in tune to the music. A wave of dizziness washed over him, but he managed to stagger to the bathroom.
As expected, many other people were in the washroom. Dakota wanted to splash water on his face but there were too many people at the sinks. There was an available stall however, so he hid in there for a while. The thumping of the music could still faintly be heard, but the lighting in the washroom was dim.
The momentary break from the light and noise was welcomed. Well, it was good until the lack of stimuli made Dakota realize just how bad he felt. His stomach was in turmoil. It churned in time with his heartbeat that could be felt under every inch of his skin. The most pressing throbbing came from his eyes. He felt a band of pulsing pain wrap around his head.
Dakota wanted to stay in the stall longer, mostly because he felt sick to his stomach, but people started knocking on the door. With no time to feel better, he swallowed a wave of nausea and left. It took a few minutes for him to gather the willpower to walk back into the club. The music and the lights got ten times worse now that he had a taste of silence.
By some miracle, their table was still free! And that miracle was Blair. She sat all alone, looking sadly towards the crowd of dancers. She perked up as Dakota joined her. She noticed his empty hands. “Where are the drinks?”
Dakota was just too happy about having a place to sit that the question didn’t register in his mind. He rested his elbows on the table and put his head in his hands.
“Kota?”
“What?”
Blair was going to repeat her question, but there was a more important one to ask. Actually, it was more of a statement followed by a question. “You don’t look so hot. Are you sick?”
“It’s just a headache.” His voice was muffled by his hands. “The lights…” he gestured around the room as if Blair could somehow have missed the seizure-inducing lights.
He didn’t bother with the rest of the sentence because the need to burp took precedence. He let out a long, wet belch that made him press his fist against his mouth. The food in his stomach sloshed around inside of him, making him shiver with nausea. Maybe it was time to ask Blair if they could leave.
“Hey, babe can you look up for one second?” Blair grabbed his arm and gave it a little shake. She was tired of looking at the top of his head all night, and trying to make sense of his mumbling.
Dakota moaned from the movement. Just then, a harsh hiccup caused his stomach to jump into his throat. A heave escaped his mouth just before a gush of vomit splattered onto the table. In his disorientated state, Dakota barely had the idea to lean over and let the next wave of puke hit the floor.
“Oh God, Dakota!” Blair jumped up from her chair, removing her arms from the table just in time. She came around to Dakota’s side and held onto his large frame. He was practically falling out of his chair with the force of each retch. “Okay, alright…you’re okay.”
Dakota squeezed his pounding eyes shut as his stomach contents splashed across the floor. He feared that if he opened his eyes, he would find himself hanging upside down. The world flipped onto its side, and Dakota no longer knew which way was up. His poor belly was getting rid of everything he ate that day. By some sick joke, the noises of the club were drowned out in his current state. Most of his senses abandoned him except for touch. He could feel Blair firmly rubbing his arm.
“I’m right here,” Blair said. “Don’t worry about a thing.”
Blair wanted to move Dakota out of the club, but there was no stopping the flood of sick from pouring from his mouth. With another gurgle and groan of pain, Dakota coated the floor.
Even when he had a moment to breathe, Dakota didn’t dare open his eyes. He did righten himself though because he came close to falling in the mess he made. He slowly sat up, only to let his head fall into Blair’s arms. “Everything hurts, Bee.”
“Oh baby, I’m sorry,” Blair cooed as she brush his hair away from his face. “I’m getting you out of here. Can you stand?”
Dakota didn’t feel confident about standing, but no one would stop him from trying. He held tightly onto Blair’s arms for support as he planted his feet on the floor.
“Alright…” Blair mumbled nervously. “Let’s see if we can get back to the room without you crushing me.”
It took some getting used to, but eventually Dakota managed to walk in a straight line. He felt drunk, hungover, and possessed at the same time.
“We’re almost there,” Blair assured him as they turned down the hallway to their suite.
They were so close, but Dakota stopped. He braced himself against the wall and threw up again. “Ugh fuck…my head.” He burped which dislodged the last small wave of sick. It was a thin stream of stomach acid and bile. When he was finished, Dakota’s legs began to give out.
Blair felt the added weight of her collapsing boyfriend and accepted it. “Okay, okay this is a good spot.” She lowered them both to the ground, a few feet from the puddle of sick.
Once sitting against the wall, Dakota opened his eyes again. He hugged his middle and squinted. As he remembered all that just happened, a deep sigh escaped him. “Did I just puke everywhere?”
Blair couldn’t help but grin. “Yeah, you just puked everywhere.” She covered her mouth with her hand, but it didn’t stop the laugh. “And we just fucking left.”
Dakota half-heartedly chuckled at the thought, then he winced in pain and put his hand on his forehead. “I hope that never happens again.”
“Yeah, that was a migraine,” Blair said while looking back and forth down the hallway. “They aren’t fun.”
“No kidding.”
“Does your head still hurt?”
“Yes.” Dakota cursed at the lights in the hallway. At least they weren’t as bad as in the club.
Blair stood up. She reached out a hand to help her boyfriend. “I’ll give you meds to knock you out so you can hopefully sleep it off.”
Dakota sighed as he became upright. “You might just have to decapitate me.”
“That’ll be plan B.”
