How many nights have you wished someone would stay?

Thank you so so so much @oh-so-youre-a-nerd for my new favorite commission ever!!!! I literally have no words for how stunning this piece is, I am never going to stop thinking about it. It is so beautifully painful to see my Noah and Harry like this and it is everything I envisioned when I asked for this commission!

Starstruck

So I saw something on Instagram today... and it immediately inspired this... I hope you enjoy it.

Book: Open Heart (Post Series)

Pairing: Tobias Carrick x Casey Carrick (F!MC)

Category: Insta Edits/Text Fic/Brief Dialogue

Rating: Teen + (Suggestive, not explicit)

Summary: Tobias is a keynote speaker at a conference in Ashville, NC. Casey decides to join him and make it a quick getaway. While there, Casey is convinced she is seeing starts... Tobias is convinced she's losing her mind. (Celebrity sighting, but they're not getting Homesick...)

A/N: More notes at the end, but this had me flipping out! lol Participating in @choicesjunechallenge - vacation

(Casey is returning to Tobias in their private sauna after a quick trip to the ladies' room)

"There you are! I was about to send out a search party for you."

"Sorry, hun... but I had to do a little snooping."

"Snooping? At the Sauna House?"

"YES! You're never going to believe who is here!"

(Tobias rolls his eyes.) "Last night at dinner, you were certain you saw Harry Styles..."

"That man looked just like Harry Styles! But this time, I'm not wrong!"

"OK. I'll bite. Who did you see, baby?"

"Noah Kahan! Noah Kahan is here! Now, let's wrap up here so I can go meet him!"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa... slow down! First, we have another 20 minutes. I'm not rushing anywhere. Second, I'm pretty sure Noah Kahan is NOT here."

"HE IS! I saw him! I know who he is, Tobias! I've been crazy about him since Busyhead...."

"Since what?"

(Casey sighs.) "BUSYHEAD! It's one of his albums, T! He did have music before Stick Season."

"Really? I wouldn't know that, considering you have Sticks Season playing on loop 24/7."

"Interesting conversation, bro, but get dressed. We need to find Noah."

"Wait.. BRO? Casey, your obsession with this man is beginning to concern me."

"Tobias, I'm SERIOUS!"

"YEAH! So am I! Just... come on... humor me?"

"OK, but I'm rubbing this shit in when this is last night's Harry Styles sighting all over again."

(No sighting... they return to finish the infrared room.)

NEXT MORNING:

A/N 2: So I log onto Instagram today, and I see my beloved Katrina Bowden and my beloved Noah Kahan were BOTH at the Sauna House in Ashville today. WHAT THE FUCK ARE THE CHANCES OF THAT HAPPENING. I know this should mean nothing to a normal person, but y'all know I'm not normal... so I put this together at once. Yep, my girl is a big-time Noah Kahan Girlie (just like her creator! lol)

Thanks for indulging my madness.

It's Lincoln x MC angst time again...

(Part 1/2) Book: It Lives Within Basis: Lia is gone. Connor is out for blood. Vax's worst enemy is his own Power. (or, horror Connor comes after my MC whilst he fights back anchor explosions.) Pairings: Lincoln x male MC, but Lincoln doesn't actually physically appear in this part, but he is brought up a lot throughout. Warnings: murder, assault, violence, swearing, trauma, injury, guns, blood, and because of the flashbacks, there's also gore and death of all ages and species. Part 1 word count: 2.2k A/N: ILITW MC is called Lila in this, Sif is the name of my ILW MC's childhood dog, Vax is the name of my ILW MC, and this part opens with Connor's POV, but shifts POV mid-part.

Part 1 under cut!

Running, running, running, running– 

Pooling scarlet of officer’s head, shuddering, shuddering, shuddering–

down, 

down, 

down, 

down, 

down.

Shuddering, shuddering, shuddering (savagely, savagely, so–) clattering to the floor like it was made full of lead, lead, lead–

One step, two step, three, what is happening, what is happening, what is happening, what is happening, what is happening to me, legs pump, pump, pumping, BANG, BANG, BANG of the bullet, reverberating out through the trees. 

One step, two step, three, what am I doing, what is happening to me, flash of pink, onyx leather, get him, get him, get him, get him– 

Cracked skin, ash hands, wet, copper– blood, where, why, whose– blood– blood - blood - blood!

“VAX!” Voice that is not my own, should not be my own, but it is my own, deafening, banging, booming, “VAX!”, where’s Lila, is she safe, Noah, Dan, who, what, why, what is happening to me, what is happening to me, what is–

Cyan… 

Drowning…

Everything...

Out. 

Ringing, ringing, ringing, then–

Only cyan, only blue, only cyan, forever true.

…….

"Calm the FUCK down!" 

Vax’s cry echoes across the clearing, falling a harried step backwards. The cerulean markings woven amidst his skin flare to life with his heightening anxiety.

"Calm down? CALM DOWN?! Like you can do any better? Like this isn't all you ever do? You're not even a real person, just some vessel for anger, and you're harping to me about keeping my temper in check?!"

"CONNOR!" His voice is guttural, pleading, a warning bark and a plea all in one. 

He scrambles backwards, not in fear for himself, but in increasing acknowledgement of the creeping bonds of Power that wind their way up his sternum, his throat, his neck, the all-too familiar burning feeling sending his heart a-pounding. 

"You.. don’t... want… this." He grits out as he gestures around, tendrils of smoke haloing his nostrils like some scorned angel of reckoning. 

Then he scrabbles further backwards, clutching his scorching hands to his chest, all too aware of the Power it has to bend and break and burn, all too aware of how quickly, how instantly, how easy it would be to smite out the one good man in this woefully empty clearing out in the sadistic solace of the woods. 

Pure cyan engulfs his hands as he raps one in a violent staccato against his head, trying in vain to tame the rising flame.

"I’LL KILL YOU!" It's not a threat, not a promise, not a scare tactic or a want, or a need, it's a plea, hollow and desperate and wavering and screaming and crying, and fraying at the edges please do not let me kill you, please do not let me kill you, I do not know how to control my Power, please do not let me kill you, please do not let me kill you!

For the sake of Connor, for the sake of whatever frayed hold he has on his humanity, desperately clinging onto a violently snapping thread, Vax stops… Freezes.

Purpose, path, salvation, purpose, path, salvation, purpose, path, salvation–

Calming thoughts… Calming thoughts!

Smother the fire, smother the fire, smother the—

Think of Lincoln. Think of Lincoln. Think of Lincoln!

Hard eyes, dark hair, hands that feel like home when he holds you, hard eyes, dark hair, hands that feel like home when he holds you, hard eyes, dark hair, hands that feel like– like– like…

Burning, burning, burning, burning, and by the nine hells why must the Power hurt so much, burning, burning, burning, burning, burning– ladder of flame climbing up, up, up, up, up– 

Up his arms, up his hands, up his neck, up his skin, burning, burning, burning, burning, and no, no, no, no, no, no, no–!

Hard eyes, dark hair, hard eyes, dark hair, hard eyes, dark hair, hard eyes, dark hair, come on, come on, come on, come on–

Think of Lincoln. Think of Lincoln!

Flesh, searing, sizzling, scorching, smouldering– and fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck! 

Think of Lincoln. Think of Lincoln. 

…And so Vax did. And it worked. For but a moment... But then Connor barrelled into him, and his markings flared once more, all thoughts of hard eyes, dark hair, hard eyes, dark hair, hard eyes, dark hair– scattered, flittering up, up, up, up, up, up– like the ashes of his Power, the spiralling smoke of the fires that threaten to swallow him whole as he rips out of, and runs free from the horror’s snatching embrace.

But he grits his teeth, and he tries again, and again, and again, purpose, path, salvation, purpose, path, salvation, purpose, path, salvation–

No, you're not a monster, Vax, no you're not a monster, no you're not,  you're not, you're not, you’re not– 

Gruff voice, tied hair, raven marks, gruff voice, tied hair, raven marks, gruff voice, tied hair, raven marks–

And Vax’s voice, it comes, finally, growling, growling, growling, growling– gnashing claws and fangs of the horror - Connor, Connor, Connor, Connor – edging closer, closer, closer, closer–

"I'll take the blame, Connor!” He cries, shaking, shaking, shaking, shaking–

“I’ll take the blame – they’ll believe me – I’m not – I’m not – I’m not right – I’ll take the – they’ll believe me!” He hisses, burning, burning, burning, burning–, eyes widening at the expanse of his Power across his flesh, climbing, creeping, crawling, burning in the backs of his atoms, his cells, his neurons, his flesh– 

Vax shakes, and stutters, embers spilling out his nose, his mouth, his eyes, his hands– 

“I'll cure you–  just please stop– I'll cure you– just stop, just fucking stop, just–”

Enraged tears stream down his shaking face, an aquamarine snaking of Power tinging his teardrops electric blue. 

Connor sneers back at him, all fangs and too-long teeth, the man himself, a monster, now, but still… To Vax? The bastion of the pure, the tainted and shattered echo of the man before him a testament only to his own failings, to what Vax could not protect him from, to what Vax failed to do, to protect Connor from, to protect Annie from, to protect Sif from, to protect mom, dad– if they were ever really his to protect - if his name were every really his to bear – if his name were anything other than the very creatures his mother warded him against at night, if the name monster did not sit so pretty and perfect on lips that bloody and stutter and freeze amidst the chilling Power breeze.

"You stole his life, and yet you still don’t know how to act with an ounce of humanity!" The thing wearing Connor’s face jeers, but no, that is Connor now, it is Connor, it is, it is, it is–

"DON’T!” Vax screams, voice piercing through the now whistling winds.

“SHUT UP, SHUT UP, SHUT UP, SHUT UP!” Vax half-pleads, half-commands as Connor’s taunts persist, fists balled as he takes yet more steps away, trying to keep a tamper down on the fire, the Power, the flames, the fire, the Power, the flames, the fire, the Power, the–

"Connor, you fucking idiot, I am trying to save your life, just– just–" Vax’s wild gaze drops to his arms, two pillars of hellish blue flame thrashing at both sides, flaming and flaring with his emotions.

The drawn-out shell of Connor jibes back at him, his own glowing and furious eyes swirling like whirlpools in his head. His voice is cruel, callous, careless– gaze calculated and cruel as he casts a wicked glance back at the fading and fated man. 

"Mommy dearest never teach you breathing lessons, or what?" The horror nods to the flare of Vax’s nostrils, the warning glow emanating out from his flesh, the tell-tale signs of an anchor explosion, imminent, no deterrent to the not-Connor before him, just a spectacle, a show, a jibe, a joke, a spot of entertainment on a chilly autumn morn.

"STOP!” Vax growls, pleads, prays, before keening quietly to himself “please, please, please, please…”, his knees slamming harshly against the deck as his anguish swipes them out from underneath him.

Mom. 

Mom…

…….

Onyx hair. Raven lips. Pointed bangs. Fatal edge, soft for him. 

"Stay gentle, Vax..." 

She commands, the butterfly on her hand strutting across ticklish flesh.

Stay gentle. 

Her cool brown eyes turn to him, extending the dainty little creature out to grabbing hands. 

Stay gentle… Stay gentle.

"Buttahfwy!" 

She laughs at the toddlers wide-eyed wonderment, tinkling and beautiful and rare. 

Stay gentle. Stay gentle, stay gentle, stay gentle, STAY GENTLE–

All too soon, the memory of her is pulled out from underneath him, browning and blackening at the edges like all the polaroids of his family he had burned through gritted teeth and falling tears, burning away like the memories of his childhood– his memories? His childhood? Lemon drops, Vax, they were lemon drops, Vax– 

…….

The snarling horror before him cares not for his trip down memory lane, racing towards him in a flurry of fangs and fatalistic fingernails. 

One sharp tug, and Connor’s dragging him, dragging him, dragging him, by the nape of his jacket neck, dragging him, dragging him, dragging him– don’t fight back, don’t fight back, don’t fight back, keep the Power down, keep the Power down, keep the Power do—

Dragging, dragging, dragging, dragging, then screaming, screaming, screaming, screaming – what-have-I-done, what-have-I-done, what- have- I– but when Vax looks up, it is not his Power that alights Connor’s soul, twisting his mouth into a screaming vortex, but the sigils of the cabin, searing into him like so many snakes down skin that knows no solace. 

Skidding back, back, back, burnt hands stinging, stinging, stinging, with the splinters of the sable, Vax backs away, but no sooner than Connor was seized by the sigils pain does he stop… Unfreeze from his pillar of hurt… And chase Vax back to his room, throwing his body against the wood of the wall with a sickening crack.

Copper, and red, streaming down Vax’s head, grappling, grappling, grappling, still, with the Power, tamp it down, down, down, down– don’t hurt him as you hurt Noah, don’t hurt him as you hurt everyone, don’t hurt him as you hurt Lincoln, blackened hiss of Power on paint, don’t hurt him as you hurt Lia, the knife of your nightmares and all the words you did not say– and all the words that you did say– do not hurt him, do not hurt him, do not hurt him, do not hurt him!

Calming thoughts. 

Calming thoughts! 

Think of Lincoln. 

One shadow looms against the gloom.

Think of Lincoln. Infernos for eyes, encroaching ever closer, closer–

Think of Lincoln.

The first kick winds Vax. 

Think of Lincoln.

The second sends him sprawling. 

Think of Lincoln!

The third has him face-down on the floor. 

Think of Lincoln…

Connor’s boot stamps across his back.

Think of Lincoln. 

Claws haul him up, then swipe across his nose, slicing, slicing, slicing– a sizzling scarlet line,  ripping open the same very spot another creature once did, in a memoria of pain, of agony, of anguish…

Think of - think of..?

Onyx hair. Raven lips. Pointed bangs. Fatal edge, dulled under the gnashing claws and jaws of the Power. 

Onyx hair. Ever-smiling lips, click-click-vrrr of dad’s polaroid as it spat out yet another photo.

But his arms, they are gone, but his arms - they are bloody, but his arms, they are swelling wells of scarlet, but his arms– they are no more, just like his chuckle, just like his jokes, just like his breath. No more polaroids. No more pictures. No more him, no more her, no more she, no more you, no more me– 

Snow-white fur, blackened snout– that sniff-sniff-sniffing curiosity, always by his side, forever at his side, tail wagging, wagging, wagging, wagging ready to face anything, anything, anything– until that anything was everything and nothing and then she was gone, gone, gone, gone. 

And then… And then, and then, and then, and then, there was her, there was her, there was her, there was her.

Annie, Annie, Annie–

Onyx hair. Little, smiling, innocent face. The sweet scent of strawberries and icecream, the colour of his hair, sundaes overflowing with syrup and sauces, and digging in as she giggled, and giggled, and giggled, but now, as he lays, sprawled, spread-eagled on the floor, lifesblood spilling out of him, she only gurgled, and gurgled, and gurgled, overflowing with red, red, red, red— and oh gods, oh gods, oh gods, she's fucking dead, dead, dead, dead–!!

Scarlet scratches neon against the black, rip-rip-ripping across his front, his lips, his chest, his nose, burning agony suffusing him as he froze– 

Think… Think… 

Quickly, he finds, he can't think of anything, anything at all. 

Think of… Think of.. 

Lincoln? Lincoln… oh fuck, LINCOLN–!

Bloodied and burnt hands fumble across cracked phone screen. 

Calltone dragging, dragging, dragging–

Beep…

Beep…

Beep...

On the third chime, Connor strikes him straight down, sending him sprawling to the floor.

A gruff voice sounds out across the other line, too late, too late– 

Think of Lincoln. 

A strangled scream. A cacophonous crashing. And then? 

Nothing, nothing at all.

Title: Down in New Orleans

A/N: Connor and ilitw!MC are freaks. Can’t blame them, though. They’re in ✨️love✨️ and insanely horny That being said, absolutely no one is safe from their antics. Today’s victims: Abel and Jocelyn. This one is a bit longer than my last side story. I may have indulged too much in horny anon energy. I’ll leave it at: it gets very detailed and let y’all take that journey on your own lol- I was fully prepared to make this into another crackhead scenario, but in the end it turned out kinda sweet (dw I still managed to sprinkle some crack at the end). As always, I appreciate any feedback y’all are willing to give - now enjoy ya filthy animals 😈😈😈

Pairing: Connor x Devon (F)

Word Count: 2.3k

Summary: A bonus scene for chapter 1 of ILW by @itlivesproject. After retrieving the knife for their contact, Devon has a moment of doubt. Connor takes time to reassure her that they’ll be okay. Inspired by the iconic diner scene in “When Harry Met Sally” 

Tag List: @itlivesproject @yawninginf

nsfw below, minors dni

---

The ride back from Maxwell Greer’s mansion was calm, apart from their brief but spirited car chase. Connor managed to shake the guard’s tail by taking several inside roads. Aimlessly, he drove through the unfamiliar streets of New Orleans. At first, it was to make sure they weren’t being followed. Then, it turned into him getting hopelessly lost. It was a little past 4AM by the time he pulled into the motel parking lot. 

“Well, that was fun. I’m gonna crash,” Jocelyn yawned, sliding out of the backseat to grab her bag from the trunk.

“Aw Joss, I wanted to stay up and paint each other’s nails. Y’know like best friends at a sleepover,” Abel joked as the crew walked side by side to their rooms. 

“Stop calling me that,” she glared back at him. 

“Stop calling you what? Joss or my BFF,” he continued to tease with a shit-eating grin plastered on his face. Jocelyn rolled her eyes, too tired to bicker with the annoying professor on her left. Deciding to quit for now, he shifted his focus to Devon. “You got the room keys?”  

“Yeah, hang on.” She stopped walking to rummage through her backpack. Eventually, she pulled out three key cards, handing two of them to Jocelyn and Abel. “You guys wanna grab a late lunch before our flight tomorrow?”

Jocelyn grunted, her attention focused on trying to unlock her door. “We’ll be there,” Abel answered for the both of them. Devon nodded, unlocking her door, stepping inside with Connor right behind her. 

Their room was modest at best. The walls were a bland shade of beige with a generic flower painting hung up for decoration. A single queen sized bed took up most of the space. They both set down their bags against the wall, not bothering to unpack since they’d only be staying for a couple more hours. “Do you want to wash up first?” he asked, gently taking off her coat from her shoulders to hang up with his. 

“You go ahead. I’ll set up out here,” Devon answered, turning her head to press a quick kiss to his cheek. For their own peace of mind, the couple always brought their own beddings when they traveled. Connor insisted after he spent one evening watching one too many black light videos on YouTube. After replacing the pillowcases and sheets, she sat at the edge of the bed, her mind beginning to wander.

They were one step closer to saving Noah. One step closer to seeing her best friend in the flesh instead of stuck as a shadow. She’s been down this path before- so many potential solutions that always ended up falling short, leaving her heartbroken. Yet, it was hard to tamp down the hopeful feeling she had for this lead. This time felt different. It had to be. 

“You okay?” Her head shot up to see her boyfriend, now in his sleepwear, with a concerned look in his eye. He joined her on the bed, taking her hand in his. 

She anxiously gnawed at her bottom lip, her voice small as she looked up at Connor. “This is gonna work, right?” His eyes softened. Squeezing her hand slightly, his thumb stroked the back of her hand as he thought of what to say. He wanted to agree- but he honestly didn’t know what would happen. The last thing he would do is lie to her. Still, it hurt him to see her so unsure. 

“It could,” he settled with. She let out a faint, humorless laugh, leaning her forehead on his. “No matter what happens, we’re gonna be okay,” he whispered.

“How can you know that?”

“Because I have you,” he stated without hesitation. Her breath caught in her throat, a warm feeling spreading in her chest. Even after five years together, he still managed to have that effect on her. They were so close that she could see the flecks of blue in his grey eyes. She didn’t miss how they flickered down to her lips. The urge to kiss him was overwhelming. Not wanting to stop her, his eyes closed as her lips pressed against his. 

He sighed into the kiss, letting go of her hand to cup her face. A deep groan escaped from his throat as she pulled on his bottom lip with her teeth. Her tongue slid inside his mouth to brush against his. They stayed like that for a while, reluctantly pulling apart only when their need for air became too great to ignore. “I love you,” Devon breathed out. 

“I love you too,” he said, his voice rough, before capturing her lips once more, pushing her down to lie on her back. His mouth trailed across her jaw, moving down to her neck, where he began to suck a mark right below her ear. 

“Watch it. I didn’t bring any makeup,” she tried to protest, but by the way her hands held his head in place, he could tell she wasn’t entirely upset by it. 

He chuckled against her neck, "sorry," he gave her one last teasing bite. “I guess I should find another spot to mark you up then.” His head moved a bit lower. “How about here?” he placed a kiss right below her collarbone. 

“Mmm, I didn’t bring any scarves either."

“Shame. I like kissing you here,” he proved his point by peppering more kisses on her skin, each one more reverent than the last. 

“I think you have a couple of places where you like to kiss me,” she teased.

“You’re right about that,” he hummed against her, the vibrations of his voice tickling her skin. He propped himself up with his arms to gaze down at his girlfriend’s face with pure adoration. “I like to kiss you here,” his tone was gentle as he leaned down to kiss her forehead. “And here,” her eyes fluttered shut as she felt his lips lightly peck each of her eyelids. Small, feathery kisses were placed down her cheeks, then the tip of her nose. “Here’s always a good time,” he laughed to himself, quickly kissing her lips. 

“Connor...” she gasped, a shiver rolling down her spine at his sweet words. 

“I’m not done.” He slipped the sleeve of her shirt down to kiss her shoulder, continuing to praise his lover. “I like how strong you are,” he murmured, kissing a trail down her arm, switching sides to give her other arm the same attention. Lifting her hand to his mouth, he placed a tender kiss to the inside of her wrist. He threaded her fingers with his own, his eyes trained on hers. “I like the way your hand feels in mine.” He slowly lifted her shirt up, making her sit up so he could take it off completely. Reaching behind her, he unhooked the clasp of her bra, sliding the straps off her shoulders. He laid her back down, his eyes filled with a mixture of love and lust. “You’re so beautiful, Devon,” he caressed the side of her face, “in every way.”

“Every way, huh?” she echoed softly, his words making her feel dizzy in the best way.

“Absolutely,” he ran his hands down her sides, “but I think you look best like this.”

“What, half-naked?” she couldn’t help but joke, loving the way his laugh sounded.

“Actually, I prefer you fully naked whenever possible,” he quipped back. Speaking lowly, he added, “it might be easier if I just showed you what I really meant.” He ran the tip of his tongue along the shell of her ear, biting the edge. She whimpered, her body tingling with anticipation. The heat she felt earlier in her chest was now pooling in her core. Mercifully, he took little time to take off the remainder of her clothing and positioned his head between her legs. He sucked on the skin of her inner thigh hard enough that there would definitely be a bruise later. 

“Please,” her hips jerked upwards, desperate for contact. His hands pushed them back down, keeping them in place. 

“Relax, love. I’m not going anywhere,” he placed one final kiss to her thigh before finally moving his mouth where she wanted him most. She inhaled sharply, letting out a shaky breath. Connor flattened out his tongue, slowly making one long stroke up her slit, briefly flicking at her clit before descending back down to tease her folds.

“Oh fuck,” she bit her lip, trying hard to keep herself from crying out. Her legs wrapped around his shoulders as she bucked up against his mouth. His tongue expertly traced patterns that he knew would rile her up. Lifting up his head briefly, he coated his fingers with her wetness, then slid them in her folds, his tongue moving to lightly tease her clit instead. He curled his fingers upwards in search for that spot that always made her scream. He knew he hit it when her hands flew to grip the back of his head, a choked sob escaping her lips. “Oh god, yes!” 

He continued to pump his fingers in and out at a steady pace, his tongue flicking around her clit. The dual sensation made her delirious, the coil inside her winding up even tighter, ready to snap at any moment. “Baby, I can’t- I’m- oh fuck--” she panted out, no longer able to string together cohesive sentences.

He refused to stop, eager to get his girlfriend to come. He looked up so he could watch as she fell apart. Her chest was heaving. One hand clutched the sheets for dear life while the other fondled with her breast. A light flush painted her face. She let out the most sinful noises from her kiss-swollen lips, far too gone to care about how loud she was getting. His cock twitched at the sight- it was the most beautiful thing Connor’s ever seen. Her eyes briefly locked with his before rolling back with pleasure, her body convulsing as she cried out his name over and over. 

He eased her through her climax, continuing to touch her until she jerked her hips away from overstimulation. She could taste herself as he kissed her soundly, his chin wet with his saliva and her juices. It took her a minute before she could open her eyes again. “Wow,” she sighed, her breathing still a bit uneven.

“I’m good, right?” Connor boasted, chest puffed out. Devon gave him a flat look, which would have hurt his pride more if she hadn't still been trembling from the aftershocks of her orgasm. He kissed her temple before retreating to the bathroom, coming back with a damp washcloth. Still sensitive, she whined softly as he placed the cloth between her legs. “I know, baby,” he soothed, trying to be as gentle as possible. He used his free hand to hold hers. “You were so good, love.” She let out a quiet ‘hm,’ her eyelids growing heavy as he took his time to clean her up.

Once he was satisfied with his work, he tossed the cloth in the waste bin. He threw a blanket over his girlfriend before getting under it himself. Instinctively, she nuzzled herself closer to his chest as he rested his chin on top of her head. Her legs tangled with his, ready to fall asleep when she felt something hard against her. Only then did she realize that her boyfriend never got a chance to get off. 

She nudged at his neck with her nose until he looked down. “Babe, what about you?”

He gave her a soft smile, “don’t worry about me.”

“But-”

“It’s late and you’re clearly too tired,” he interjected before she could argue any further. “just get some rest, baby.” With that, he pulled her against his chest once more, ready to fall asleep. 

“Fine,” her words were muffled into his shirt, “but I’m making it up to you tomorrow.”

“Can’t wait,” he mumbled, drifting off into a peaceful slumber.

~the following day~

The group went out for lunch as promised at the local diner. The couple were sat across Abel and Jocelyn, each nursing a large mug of black coffee. 

“I hate you both,” Jocelyn sneered, shooting daggers at them through her eyebags. They at least had the decency to look guilty, genuinely feeling bad that they ruined their friend’s sleep. 

“Our bad, we got... carried away,” Connor apologized, rubbing the back of his neck. Jocelyn scoffed, choosing to sip her coffee instead of hashing out more insults. 

“You guys can try to sleep on the plane,” Devon chimed in. Jocelyn glared back at her, “...or not.”

“I told you we should’ve packed earplugs, Joss. I stayed with them for New Years. They’ve always been,” Abel cleared his throat, “vocal.” 

“You heard us?!” Connor yelped, his cheeks immediately turning red.

“Everyone heard you,” he grinned, taking pleasure at his friend's embarrassment. A small reward for being kept up all night. "I was stuck trying to convince your baby cousin that the sound coming from your room was a dying animal.” 

“Excuse you?! I do not sound like a dying animal,” Devon defended herself, crossing her arms over her chest.

“You’re right. It was more like, -ohh, -ahh, oh God, Connor...” Abel moaned out exaggeratingly, caressing his hand down his chest in mock pleasure. He banged his fists against the table, head thrashing every which way as he continued to shout a string of yes’s in a high pitched voice. 

“Okay we get it! Stop it, man. People are staring,” Connor slid his body lower into the booth, feebly trying to ignore the dirty look the waitress gave their table. 

“Awesome,” he instantly snapped back to his normal self, taking a long sip of coffee. “Remember this feeling before you decide to ruin another federal holiday.”

~end of side story~

Jocelyn is: tired

Abel is: amused

Connor is: locked in the bathroom on a plane as Devon gives him the best blowjob of his life embarrased

Harris part of title made on photoshop

In this, Immortal Desires MC (Charlie) is with Cassius Harlow while My Two First Loves MC (Emma) is with Mason and Ava is with an original character called Sarah

Trying his best to run through the forest, Noah clutches at his side as blood runs down. He falls to his knees as the heavy footsteps of his hunter grow ever closer.

BEFORE

Pulling up to a parking spot, Noah kills the engine of his car and jumps out. He grabs his bag from the bag seat before locking it and heading over to the diner. Inside, he takes a small table out the way, taking his phone from his pocket and dialling while he looks over the menu. After a few rings, a friendly, familiar voice comes over.

Ava - Hey, Noah.

Noah - Hi, Ava. How're things going?

Ava - Hazel is doing fine, dude. You don't need to check in everyday.

Noah - You know me.

Ava - Yes, I do. But I promise you, she's doing okay.

Noah - Thanks.

Ava - Where are you at the moment?

Noah - Just arrived in a town called Crimson Beech. Think I might stop for a couple days before I get going again.

Ava - Fair enough. A trip like yours can't be taken too lightly. Anyway, I need to get going, got a lesson in a bit. I'll speak to you soon.

Noah - Have fun.

The line goes dead and Noah concentrates on the menu properly.

Noah - Okay, what looks good...

Voice - Try the burger. They're legendary.

Noah looks over to see a young woman approaching him while a couple watches from another table as one of the diner workers stands at the table.

Noah - Guess I'll take a burger and a water.

The girl takes a seat opposite him.

Noah - Thanks for the rec...

Gabriela - Gabriela. Adalhard.

Noah - Noah Harris.

He extends a hand to her and she shakes it with a smile.

Gabriela - What brings you to Crimson Beech?

Noah - Just passing through. Doing a little bit of travelling. But this looks like the kind of place I could stop for a couple of days before I get going.

Gabriela - I can vouch that.

They both laugh as his food is brought to the table.

Cas - You ditching us, Golden Girl?

The two look over to the other couple.

Gabriela - Just being friendly, Cas.

Cas rolls his eyes while the person sat with him gives his arm a playful slap.

Charlie - Don't mind him.

Cas and the other person get up and join Noah and Gabriela.

Charlie - I'm Charlie. And this is Cas.

Cas - Hi.

Noah - I'm sensing history.

Charlie - We all met in high school. These two used to be at each other's throats.

Cas - I had my reasons.

They spend a couple hours digging into their food and giving Noah a slight background on their past as well as Crimson Beech. After paying, Cas and Charlie take their leave while Gabriela walks with Noah to his car.

Gabriela - Got a place to stay?

Noah - That's my next stop. Find a motel or something. Where's the closest?

Gabriela - Well, actually, I was thinking you could crash at mine. I have a spare room and it'll be uber cheap. Like zero cheap. I only have one condition.

Noah - I appreciate, but I don't want to intrude.

Gabriela - Noah, I'm inviting you. I wouldn't call that intruding. Besides, I've got a good enough idea of you to trust you at mine.

Noah sighs with a smile.

Noah - Alright. What's the condition?

Gabriela - There is a party happening in the woods.

Noah - You want me to come.

Gabriela - Yes.

Noah nods in agreement and the two head back to Gabriela's place. Once there, Noah notices how everything is set out. One coaster on the coffee table, one at the computer desk. One plate in the washing up.

Noah - You on your own here?

Gabriela seems to pause and something in her tone tells Noah how she feels.

Gabriela - Yeah. Just me.

Noah - I didn't mean to sound--

Gabriela - It's okay. And before you ask, yeah, it can get a little bit lonely.

Noah - I'm sorry.

Gabriela - I promise, it's fine. I'm used to it.

Taking a deep breath, Gabriela puts a smile back on.

Gabriela - Come on, your room is this way.

Later, they sit on the couch with some take out.

Gabriela - So tell me, Noah. Is there anyone in your life?

Noah - No. No, I'm on my own in that department. There was someone, but she chose someone else.

Gabriela - I'm sorry. I know the feeling.

Noah - Charlie?

Gabriela - I've moved past it.

Noah - After I graduated, I just kept working at the garage. Then I decided this year to travel the country a bit, and here I am.

Gabriela - You glossed over a lot of info there.

Noah - It's the basics.

Arriving at the party in the woods, Gabriela takes Noah over to Charlie. Charlie and Gabriela embrace in a quick hug. Over at the edge, Noah notices Cas talking to a dark haired guy.

Charlie - So how did Gabriela talk you into joining her here.

Gabriela - I gave him a place to stay.

As the night goes on, Noah keeps to the edge as he doesn't know anyone apart from Gabriela, Cas, and Charlie. Charlie joins him, handing him a drink.

Charlie - You're worse than Cas with the whole brooding at the edge thing you got going on here.

Noah - I'm not brooding. I just don't know anyone. Apart from you, Gabriela, and Cas.

He motions to the two with Cas talking to a dark haired guy while Gabriela talks with some of her friends. She looks over at Noah with a smile that he returns.

Charlie - You two obviously got to know each other.

Noah - She is letting me stay with her.

Charlie - Fair enough, but that's not what I meant.

Noah - I'm not gracing that with a reply.

Charlie - You just did.

Before either can say anything, a snapping sound from behind draws their attention as they whip around. Noah looks to Charlie and they shrug.

Charlie - Might just be--

A low growling cuts them off. Remaining cautious, Noah takes a few steps closer to see if he can find the source of the growling, but has no luck. Charlie puts their hand on Noah's shoulder to stop him.

Charlie - Lets leave it. More than likely just nature.

Charlie leaves Noah and heads over to Cas, and Noah can see that they are telling him about what just happened as they point to guide Cas in the direction of the noise. Gabriela re-joins him.

Gabriela - Having fun?

Noah - As much as I can when I don't know anyone.

Gabriela - Don't worry. I'll keep my eye on y--

The growling draws his attention again, and Gabriela looks round in interest as well.

Gabriela - Never heard anything like that before. Wait here.

She heads into the woods and Noah ignores Gabriela, following her.

Gabriela - I said to wait!

Noah - Yup.

Gabriela rolls her eyes.

Gabriela - Stay close.

They delve further and further into the woods, away from the party as the music becomes quieter. Now there's only the sound of crickets and the occasional growl.

Noah - Sounds like a wolf.

Gabriela - We don't get wolves.

Stepping out into a clearing, they find themselves face to face with a yellow eyed wolf on the other side and it sets it sights on Gabriela.

Gabriela - Something isn't right here.

Noah - We might be in it's territory.

Gabriela - No. It's in ours.

Noah - What?

The wolf changes into a humanoid wolf creature, growing taller.

Wolf - A challenge.

Gabriela - Noah, get out of here and find Cas and Charlie!

She turns to face him and he sees that her eyes have changed to silver and fangs on display.

Noah - What...

Noah steps back as he looks between Gabriela and the wolf creature. His world has just changed forever.
