#maddox darling

[ablatheringblatherskite]

Arrio, pointing at Raoul and Christine: I've only had this French couple for a day and a half but if anything happened to them I'd kill everyone in this room and then myself.

Maddox: Can we not kill ourselves over the French couple, please? Raoul will cry even harder.

He’s rushing to the coffin, and Maddox is scarily still inside. Peter drops to his knees, tears of despair rolling down his face. They couldn’t have come all this way to find him dead. They searched the island to search for their friend, and this can’t be it. It just can’t. (In the back of his mind, he knows it isn’t, that this is a memory more than a dream, but that doesn’t stop the tears, or the desperation.)

“Come on… come ON!” He slams a fist against the glass, and to his surprise it gives way under his hand.

(Wait, what?)

Dick pushes past Strike and Peter, leans over to wrap his fingers around Maddox’s wrist. Then looks up, eyes wide and wet. “No pulse. He’s… he’s gone.”

No no no wait. This is wrong.

This isn’t how it happened.

Strike lets out a cry of grief, pulling Maddox into her arms and cradling him. Christine bursts into tears, and even Arrio staggers back in shock. Venatrix’s mouth hangs open, Nia clinging to her arm and crying quietly. Dick runs a hand through his hair and hangs his head.

And Peter starts to panic.

What the… what’s going on this is wrong this is wrong this is wrong MADDOX you couldn’t save him just like Uncle Ben and he’s gone and he’s gone and he’s gone and-

“Why didn’t you help him, Peter?” Strike stares at him through tear-filled blue eyes. “I thought you were supposed to be a hero.” “I… I-” “You’re supposed to save people. Not let them die,” Raoul hisses accusatorially, and Dick shakes his head disdainfully. “I thought you were like me, but I was wrong.”

Peter staggers away from the glares and sharp words digging into his heart like broken glass. “I’m sorry,” he sobs. “I tried, I just…” “You just weren’t enough.” “Matt?” Peter recoils away from him. “I- I-” “Wake up, Peter.” Matt’s sunglasses are gone, and his blind eyes seem to bore into Peter’s, piercing deep into his thoughts, laying out everything wrong with him for the world to see.

Nia steps closer. “Wake up, Peter.” “Wake up, Peter.” “Wake up, Peter.” “Wake up, Peter.” “Wake up, Peter.” Strike, and then Dick, then Christine, then Raoul, then Trixi, the Arrio, louder and louder and louder until his skull might explode with the force of it-

“Peter, wake up!”

He shot up in bed with a gasp, recognising Maddox’s voice just in time to stop himself from grabbing for his webshooters. “Mad… Maddox?” His breaths were going way too fast, like he had just run a marathon instead of being asleep. “Yeah, it’s me, mate. I got you.” Peter almost burst into tears of relief at that, instead confining himself to squeezing Maddox’s arm. He reacted by pulling Peter into a tight hug.

“I felt you panicking,” Maddox said softly after a moment. “Do you… wanna talk about it?” Peter swallowed, then shrugged into Maddox’s hold. “I don’t know. It was weird.” “It’s alright, it’s alright. Y’know, Strike and everyone else in her galaxy says I’m weird too.” He smiled gently down at him, and Peter leaned his head against Maddox’s shoulder, hesitating.

“…Well, it was kind of… more like a memory than a dream. We were on the island again, and we’d just found you in that glass box.” “…I still don’t get why I was in that thing either,” Maddox mused. “Yeah… Except this time, we didn’t say ’I love you’ to get you out of it. When I hit the glass, it shattered, and- and Dick tried to find your pulse, but you didn’t have one, and nothing- nothing that we could say or do would wake you up and you were gone.” His voice broke on the last word, and he took in a shuddering breath, reaching up to wipe away the tears that threatened to soak into the sleeve of Maddox’s shirt. He wasn’t wearing his jacket; Peter’s nightmare must’ve woken him up too, and he felt instantly guilty.

The spy must have sensed it, because he squeezed Peter tightly and said, “Shhhh. It’s not your fault, mate. It is not your fault. And you are enough, you hear me?” Peter sniffled and nodded, burrowing tighter into him.

“You’re the best of us, kid,” he murmured, almost too low for Peter to hear.

They sat there for a few long minutes, until Peter finally whispered, “I should let you get back to bed,” and started to untangle himself from Maddox, but he simply moved to hold Peter differently. “I can do that just as well here as in my room,” he reassured him. “Just be still now.” Compliantly (and a little relieved), Peter snuggled back against him. The last thing he remembered before falling asleep was Maddox humming a song, hands rubbing soft, soothing circles against Peter’s back.

[moobrvoobl-moobmoob-oobmpoobroom]

@enigma-absolute this is Maddox and Anakin

I could fix him. I could make him worse. Good for you. I could gently take the weapon out of his shaking, blood-soaked hand and hold him until he finally believes that he doesn't have to be defined by all the ways the world has hurt him. Then we could ruin the lives of everyone who has ever treated him like he's a monster who doesn't deserve love.

Pocketwatch theory;

Okay, I know this is DEFINITELY isn't true but I have a funny theory about Ulyana and this little Hook character based on the wiki saying Ulyana is Uma's sister rn.

What if after d3 Harry and Uma just find two random street kids that look vaguely like them, and decide to take them in. And then they just gaslight their parents into thinking that they've always had a younger brother/sister.

It would explain why Ulyana wasn't mentioned in d2 if she was actually Uma's sister and why this kid is called Hook.

Bonus points if Harry looked James straight in the eye and just said 'his name is Hook. Just Hook' when asked what the kids' name was.

And if he and Uma and their crew all just play dumb whenever someone asks about them.

Like 'what do you mean? Harry's always had a brother!'

Or 'Uma's always had a sister! What are you talking about?'

This is also assuming that they're like 8 years younger roughly.

Perfect friend age for Hadie, Chloe, and Red. And Maddox Hatter.

(And Danny Darling who still exists in my universe).

ALSO THANK GOD THEY CHOSE THE NAME 'MADDOX' OVER THE OTHER POSSIBILITIES!

FAME - awards surrounding fame (or lack thereof), public perception, and anything else relating to celebrities!

[silassinclair]

Hello! Wondering if I can request a Maddox with a very Dense darling? Just all in general doesn’t realize that Maddox grew to love her? It’s just going back and forth on Maddox trying to show his love while Darling is just thinking that he’s trying to manipulate her or something of the sort..Just all in all love silly and weird things happening with the two.

Hope you have a great day as always, remember to always take care! :)

This is such a cute request. Thank you for this one!! And you have a greater day :) Masterlist Here!!

Yandere Wild West Outlaw x Dense Reader

You noticed something odd about your outlaw captor lately. Usually he would force you to do chores around the house while he would either watch and insult you; or go out in town to drink while you were chained to the table so you wouldn’t run off. But for the past few weeks the chores have become less and less and Maddox kept a closer eye on you. No longer did he go out in town while leaving you chained up. Instead he watched you in silence. It was weird and honestly uncomfortable. Why was he always looking at you and not saying anything?

“Did you run out of crude words to call me?” You ask while hanging some clothes outside to dry. Maddox sits on the porch step watching you.

“Huh?” He utters.

“You’ve been watching me in silence lately. It’s… odd.”

The shirt you hang up is one of his. Even though it's clean it still has his cedarwood and smokey scent on it. Maddox has invaded all of your senses lately. You see him watch you, you smell him when he's near, you hear his grunts when he chops wood, and you feel his featherlight touch on your cheek when he thinks you're asleep. You can't go anywhere without sensing him nearby. No, the masked outlaw has you on an invisible leash.

Maddox stands up from where he was sat on the porch step. Walking past the hung clothes blowing in the wind he strides towards you. His brown eyes are locked on you. It makes you nervous. Did you slip up? Say something you shouldn't have? Will he punish you again?

"What is it princess? Am I makin' you uncomfy?" You can pretty much hear him smirking from behind that bandana. You don't even need to see his face to know what it looks like.

"No." You reply. "It's just weird. You're always watching me now. What are you scheming huh?"

The outlaw chuckles and reaches a hand out to your face. You flinch and his hand freezes. Maddox's eyes soften for a moment and he moves his hand slowly to put a strand of lose hair behind your ear. His hand brushes against the shell of your ear. It's warm.

"I ain't scheming anythin' sweet heart. Just like to watch you is all. Is that a crime?"

Your eyebrows furrow. "I don't believe you for a second."

Taking another article of clothing out of the basket you hang it up on the clothesline.

"You don't believe me?" He whines jokingly. "Why would I lie? Who wouldn't wanna watch a pretty girl like you go about her days? It's more entertaining than going to any boring ol' show."

That one causes an eyeroll. "Now you're trying too hard. If you think I'm going to run away then relax because I'm not. I learned my lesson when you shot me."

Maddox groans and wraps his arms around your waist. He leans down, resting his chin on your shoulder. Once again Maddox invades your senses. You smell the gun smoke, feel his heat, hear his breathing, and see his arms around you.

"What if I told ya' I loved you hm?" His husky voice whispers into your ear.

"Well then I wouldn't believe you." You shoot back imediatley. The outlaw whines and buries his face into the crook of your neck from behind.

"Why not princess?" He says as his finger toys with the ribbon that ties the front area of your dress together, the ribbon right over top your breasts.

"Because you're a lying criminal. Now shove off, I'm working on drying your stinky underwear."

Your elbow jabs Maddox in the ribs making him wince and let you go.

“Easy now princess.”

"I'm home."

You turn to see Maddox standing under the entryway of the kitchen. In his hands is a bouquet of wildflowers varying in colors of white, green, yellow, and purple.

"Those are nice flowers. I'll grab a vase for them." You say and look for one under the sink cabinet. But all you find is an extra large empty can that once held baked beans. Well, it'll have to do. You take the can and fill it with water from the basin. Maddox watches you take the flowers from his hands with the utmost care. He watches how gently you put them in the can and set it on the table.

You'd make an amazing wife. The way you make this temporary house a home is admirable. Maddox never knew what he was missing until he met you. You were a thorn in his side, just a little play thing that annoyed him. You were only supposed to be a temporary pleasure but you soon turned into an irreplaceable companion. Whenever he was gone he'd miss you. When he was home he'd watch you. Every second of his life is all for you.

All because he loves you. And seeing you smile over some simple wildflowers proves that his love for you is no mistake. You're absolutely perfect, even if you don't feel the same way about him. Eventually he'll make you come around. Even if he has to use force.

"I saw em while I was out and I thought you'd like em." Maddox says, rubbing the back of his neck.

Smiling softly you adjust the flowers. "They're beautiful. Thank you."

You turn to Maddox and lock eyes with him. At the same time the both of you think to yourselves,

"Maybe he isn't too bad."

"Maybe love isn't too bad."

@enigma-absolute Maddox…

[heartfullofleeches]

Ichabod's (shirtless reaper lady) darling is seperate from the supernatural harem's darling, but it'd be funny if after like a thousand years of not seeing each other she bursts in on Maddox's new life to see what her baby "sibling" is up to and falls for their human. Her interactions with Baron would be golden

-

[Baron storms into the living room seeing Ichabod's arms around his mate and Maddox looking defeated in a corner]

Baron: Hey Bitch!

[She looks up at him, annoyed]: What.

Baron: What do you identify as.

Ichabod: Ha?

Baron: Your gender! The fuck do you identify as?!

Ichabod: Obviously I'm a fuckin chick - why's it matter?

Baron: Cover your damn tits then!

Ichabod: I don't see you wearin' a damn thing. You think people want your baboon ass in their face everytime you walk by?

[Baron looks at his mate then back at Ichabod as if saying with his eyes "The fucking audacity of this woman"]

Baron: I AM A MAN. IT'S DIFFERENT

Ichabod: How?

Baron: ye- Y/n, tell her. Y/n?

[Supernatural Harem darling slips out the front door holding Maddox's hand as Alasdair walks in with groceries]

Alasdair: Great. There's two of them.

[empian28]

My Red Hcs ♥️🥀

-Red can speak Spanish

-Red loves to just go on walks

-She’s an artist

-Chloe gives her a journal and Res discovers that she likes to write and sort out her thoughts, it keeps her from going mad with all the new memories contradicting her old ones

-She has tons of hobbies bc the QoH kept taking them away

-She has a massive sweet tooth and Bridget heavily encourages it

-Red can bake bc she has weekly baking sessions/lessons with her mom

-Red calls Bridget Momma/Mama when she gets a new memory from her childhood in this timeline or just bc she can

-Maddox has the portal thing to Red’s room bc as a kid Red would always sneak to his workshop and fall asleep of the couches or benches and he’d have to find a way to sneak her back to her room before morning

-Res speaks a lot of languages bc there was nothing to do in Wonderland (hc from the-mabel-gleeful on tumblr)

-Red is so used to death bc of all the beheadings she’s seen and when someone dies she acts completely normal abt it and no one understands why until she explains it’s because she’s grown up around death

-Red can play guitar and piano

-She can cook bc TQoH used to starve her as punishment so she learned how to cook for herself (the kitchen staff helped her and TQoH found out and beheaded them)

-Her full name is Rosa Redelle Marcia Bao (Rosa means rose, Redelle means red meadow (I’ve seen a few ppl hc Redelle/Redella her real name and I rlly like that idea, credits to whoever came up with the hc), Marcia is the female version of Mars, the god of war, and Bao means precious and honor)

-Wonderlandians in the new timeline call her all kinds of nicknames

-Some of her nicknames relating to her name other than Red are Rose/little rose, Mars, and sometimes ppl just call her Bao

-Her mom’s are firecracker/fireball, Princess, dear/my dear, sweet/my sweet, my heart, my love, rosebud/flowerbud/my little bud, my darling, daughter/my daughter, my princess, etc

-Can run a country bc the QoH taught het at an early age

-Red has to sleep with a fan, sometimes more than one

-She has some pink in her outfits and style after the time travel mission

-She loves books and reading, but while Chloe reads for knowledge, Red likes to read for knowledge and for fun

-is good at writing poetry

-Poetry helps her get out her feelings

-Writes poems for every drawing

-Actually really loves going outside

-Likes watching the sunsets and stars, especially if she’s somewhere up high

-Is pan

-is very talented and has many hidden talents ppl don’t know or wouldn’t guess

-was a very sweet child and wanted the best for everyone but TQoH put a stop to all that

@chrumblr-whumblr day 19: asphyxiation and day 24: drowning

wc: 366 | warnings: star wars swearwords, choking on bacta, mention of bodies | characters: Lieutenant Strike (OC)

an attempt at a Strike version of @enigma-absolute's boy Maddox's backstory!!

—

She didn't know how long she floated in that state of half-knowing, half-consciousness, half-feeling, the nothingness pressing in close and dark around her. But then all her senses kicked back in at once and she was choking on bacta, the sickly sweet stench of it clogging her nose and mouth as she convulsed. She coughed and spat and heaved, shaking on the slippery floor of the medbay. It was a miracle she hadn't cut herself on the broken glass of the bacta tank, but she couldn't bring herself to be overly thankful at the moment.

Where am I what is this how did I get here oh kriff are those bodies what the kriff is this oh force- She stared at her surroundings as she gasped for oxygen, air replacing the sticky fluid in her lungs. Aside from all the inert figures, the room was deserted, the only sound the distant rumbling of a starship's engines and deep booms almost like explosions. How did she know that? She didn't know how she knew that.

Medbays… Medbays usually have doctors in them. But there were none in this one. Where did they all go? Was the ship exploding? So many questions, not a single answer. The edge of a stray ID card was visible from her position, and she suddenly felt way too vulnerable, exposed on the floor.

Gotta go have to go run go go go get out- She pushed herself onto unstable feet, grabbed a scalpel and the card off one of the abandoned medical stands and stumbled to the door. The walls trembled around her as she went through hallway after hallway, finally emerging into the command center of the ship. It was just as deserted as the medbay, broken panels hanging off everything and sparks falling from the loose wiring. A planet she didn't recognise who was she kidding she didn't recognise anything loomed out the viewport, coming ever closer as the ship shook, threatening to come apart from the explosions' wounds left on its hull.

Strike stared into the emptiness of space and didn't remember who or where she was, only knowing one thing.

These are not my stars.

THATS OUR BOY VOTE MADDOX DARLING 2K24

Please vote based on the picture AND the description!

Maddox Darling [Lost Boy of the Galaxy Far Far Away @enigma-absolute - Star Wars OC]

“I know I’ve had amnesia, but have you considered therapy?” Son of Earth, born of Australia, built like a 90’s Boy Protagonist, Rebel Spy and Lost Boy of a Galaxy Far Far Away, Maddox is an empire-induced retrograde amnesiac who, with the help of the Light Side of the Force, has started to recover his memory and set out to re-define who he is with a renewed worldview of hope; directly inspired by recovered memories of original trilogy Luke Skywalker. Aside from recovering his memory, aiming to become a better man and eventually finding a way back home (while having some fun on the way), Maddox seeks to do the best job of bringing hope through working espionage in the rebellion, but also extend it to others wherever he goes.

Luria [Eyurenious' Gaurdians @april-musings]

Luria is a kind and timid girl with nature magic. She is fiercely loyal, and would do anything to protect her friends-- including ideas that are not-so-smart.

[paranoid-radio]

GO AWAY J-MAN I SAID I'M NOT GOING. Oh, ex-ex princeee i've got something really good for you! Oh, really?

WHAT THE FUCK IS SHE DOING HERE.

It's your lucky day, ex-ex prince, you're going to be king! King of whatever armpit of hell the king sends me to this time after she RATS us out. Yay. You told me to do the planning, your ex-ex majesty. So i've done it all for you! Your lovely sister is going to stage her own murder and we're going to help her with it. She'll run away so the both of you will never have to interact again and then you'll be crowned king. And why on EARTH would she do that? Because. And I know this is going to be VERYY difficult for you to understand because it involves someone having an authentic feeling and not acting purely out of their own self interest, but.. i'm in love. And I can't be with them here! So, to be safe I will do whatever it takes.

...For HIM?

NOT JASON DUMBASS, MADDOX?? If you even remember who they are. Oh, god.. This brings us to what you have to do, darling. Gallantly break out the mage from the prison. ABSOLUTELY NOT. It's your fault they're in there in the first place! What do you mean? You don't know? You've recruited him to your new coup without telling him why the old one failed. I WAS GOING TO GET AROUND TO IT.

Two years ago, this DUMBASS decided to kill the king! For very good reasons. Well, either way, he decided to rope in Maddox who was just quietly practicing magic and working at an Inn. THEY APPROACHED ME THEY WANTED MAGIC TO BE LEGAL AGAIN!! EITHER WAY.. As they were getting preparations ready to ward the entire palace and kill the king in one perfectly effective spell, THIS ONE decided he was just too impatient and stormed the palace himself! Getting Maddox locked in the dungeons and himself sent to a cushy provincial town TO FUCK AROUND FOR TWO YEARS.

Heart of the Weave: Part 2

Please only read if you have read part 1, which you can find HERE.

Chapter 13

I will always replay those words Neeve spoke to us when we were in the baby’s room that morning: I also can't wait to show you the million ways I love you. Granted, she's a partial elf, so we have quite awhile before anything at all happens to her, but I still dread the day that it does. 

  Gale gently shakes my shoulder to snap me out of the trance I'm stuck in, and my mind makes its way back into reality. His amorous smile captures my attention, so I reciprocate as I brush his hair out of his face. He's holding our sleeping daughter in his arms, preparing to place her in the black bassinet stroller by our front door. 

   “Are you ready to go, love? I believe all the food is cooked and prepared, and the ballroom has already been fully decorated with the flowers Neeve has requested.” Oh, our baby girl’s birthday party… I’m so excited to see how it turns out, and to see the smile on her face when she walks into the room. Say, I wonder where she’s at? “She was so excited, she left without us, so it's just you, me, and Jenevelle on the stroll there. Neeve definitely has your eager quality, and I can't say I'm complaining about it.” 

  Gale opens the front door as I push the stroller, his brown eyes captivating as he waits for me to walk through. 

  “After you, beautiful.” 

  We step quietly outside, where the setting sun radiates a calming glow as we stroll upon the brick road towards Blackstaff Academy. The sounds of the fountain in the middle of the city is so relaxing and could put one to sleep. I'm already half- way there. 

  “Jenevelle looks so darling, you did a wonderful job picking out that dress, Mr. Dekarios,” I say, admiring our sleeping baby in her purple gown. She rests gracefully in her stroller, though I will imagine waking up in a busy ballroom will throw her off tremendously. Will she be pleased? Hopefully. I can't exactly imagine falling asleep at home and waking up in a strange and unusual location. 

  “I’m honored you think so, my love. I have no sense of…erm…fashion when it comes to our girls. I figured our baby would look gorgeous no matter what I put her in though.”

When we arrive to Blackstaff, the only people there are friends of Neeve, which are also her fellow classmates, Maddox Ravengard, Asher Ancunin, and of course some of our friends as well. I notice Neeve speaking with a few of her friends near the large buffet table. Maddox is beside her, admiring our little sorceress as she speaks to her friends, and it brings joy to my heart. 

“Emmy! Gale!” Shadowheart and Astarion approach us as we stand here awkwardly. “About time you showed up.” Shadowheart is teasing, of course, but a lot of the time it's hard to tell. We embrace each other in a hug, and I can feel her squeeze me tight; she senses I haven't quite accepted our daughter aging yet. She can relate, unfortunately, and I'm so glad I have someone I can cry about this to that isn't Gale. 

“Thank you both for coming. She's been looking forward to it and I'm glad we have some adults to interact with while our daughter mingles with her friends,” I mention. “It means the world you could make it.”

“Now darling, you know we wouldn't miss it for the world. I mean shit! You have been to every single party of Asher’s since he was a baby. I hate to sound all sentimental but I'm…grateful for you both. Ugh, okay, please don't waterboard more emotional words out of my mouth.”

“Thank you, Astarion, that means a lot,” Gale chimes in as he picks up our confused and waking baby from the bassinet. She is observing the candle lights surrounding us and the large area we’re standing in, probably wondering what in the Hells is even going on. “You know Shadowheart is going to–”

“Hand me the baby,” she interrupts, smiling and reaching for Jenevelle. “I need my baby fix. Like, I will lose my mind. Sometimes I wish we had an immortal forever baby.” Astarion instantly shoots her an evil glare, completely speechless at her words. “What? It won't happen and you know that.”

“I love you, but are you out of your mind?!” Gale and I laugh as he hands the baby over to Shadowheart, who seems overly excited to hold her close. I can tell she yearns for another child, but something tells me they're both extremely hesitant. Speaking of child, I notice Neeve approaching us finally after spending some time with her friends. Maddox and Asher are in the near distance chatting about something with Karlach and Wyll. 

“I'm so glad this is happening! Oh my goodness. The flowers, the food, all my friends… Thank you both for making this happen. Truly.”

“Your father did all the hard work,” I say wholeheartedly with a loving smile. “Anything for you, sweet daughter. And the food? It's delicious? We just walked in the door, so–”

“It's INCREDIBLE. I need to know who the chef is.” Rather than it being a fancy dinner everyone partakes in, it's more of a ‘make your plate and hold it while mingling with others in the room’ type of party. Gale wraps his arm around me and kisses the side of my head as our ecstatic daughter nearly bounces up and down on her toes. “Thank you both again.”

  The sound of the piano echoes throughout the ballroom, and I immediately notice Gale and Neeve exchange an excited glance, and I can tell this is something they've both been looking forward to. She takes his hand and drags him to the center of the room for a dance. The father-daughter dance he's always wanted. 

   “He's such a wonderful dad,” Shadowheart murmurs as she holds our baby, and I can't help but smile at her words. It's true, he's an incredible father, and I wouldn't have it any other way of course. I watch him teach Neeve how to dance, and like me, she trips over her own feet and lands directly on her butt. I hold back a chuckle, but she busts up laughing rather than turning away in embarrassment. That's my girl.  After awhile, she gets the hang of it, and I notice her lean onto Gale, her head on his shoulder as they dance quietly in the room. Gale peeks over at me and points at her while she's not looking, mouthing the words ‘she’s crying.’ After a moment, she looks back up at Gale, her feet still swaying with the music. As the piano stops, she hugs Gale tightly, and he squeezes her, never wanting to let go of our daughter. I approach them, hearing sniffles coming from Neeve’s nose. 

“Darling, are you alright?” I ask with a concerned tone. “You seem upset?”

“Hmm? Mother, no!” Her enthusiastic tone catches me off guard for a moment. She chuckles and hugs me too, but for a very brief moment as I stand here with a bewildered expression. “It's such a beautiful party and I'm grateful. I've been looking forward to a dance with Daddy for ages now, and this…it's my dream birthday. You baked me a hundred cupcakes! I mean…who wouldn't be so happy they cry?!” She turns around, noticing Maddox speaking with his parents, and I can tell she's antsy about talking to him. The sparkle in her eye tells me she loves him, but she won't admit it. Not yet, anyway. 

“Go talk to Maddox, I can tell how badly you want to see him,” I murmur, and she takes my hand within hers, staring at my wedding ring. 

“Are you sure? You won't be sad?”

“Not at all. Just please go enjoy yourself. It's your birthday!"

“Just don't get too comfortable with that boy,” Gale chimes in with a teasing tone, but I know deep down he isn't joking; he's protective of our little – ahem, not-so-little girl. Neeve bolts off, skipping ecstatically toward Maddox. His face lights up with a smile as she approaches him, and for some reason…it made me so happy. 

Shadowheart hands the baby back to us. 

“Sorry, Asher just got here. WAY too late, might I add. We’re going to see him. I'll catch up with you later, alright?” As our friends walk off to see their son, Gale places Jenevelle in the baby wrap attached to him and then takes my hand within his. I can feel heat flourish through my cheeks. 

“Mrs. Dekarios, may I have this dance?” Jenevelle coos loudly, kicking her feet excitedly within the wrap. “Sorry, may we have this dance? Can't exclude the baby, you know.” I laugh as I place my hand within Gale’s, and he twirls me around, placing his other hand on my back as he pulls me in. 

“You can always have this dance."
