guess who realized shes been giving previews on AO3 and not here? so heres a few tings ive been pondering over. please enjoy and thx for reading lovelies

Night Shift VI

Rae woke reluctantly to music playing and kitchen noise and she wearily rolled out of bed to stumble to the loo. After making herself halfway presentable, she went to the kitchen, surprised to see the myriad of food cooking.

“Oi, get back in bed,” Finn instructed, waving a spatula at her, “Breakfast’s not done.”

“Shite...you’re a morning person,” she grumbled, his answering grin nearly blinding her. Wine hangovers were always the worst.

He chuckled and kissed her neck before returning to the stovetop. He moved around expertly and Rae went about making tea. Finn already had the kettle on so she grabbed sugar and bourbon. She poured a healthy splash in a mug while he was turned away and then surreptitiously put the bottle away.

“Y’dont have to hide it.” She frowned and he shrugged, “I understand.”

“Do you?” She wasn’t sure she could believe him. He hesitated.

“I was in rehab awhile back.”

“For drinking?”

“Not entirely,” he swallowed before going on, “I used to be a cokehead, but then it was pain pills and alcohol…”

“Anything else?” She couldn’t say she was shocked but certainly didn’t think he was the type.

“Just spliff,” He joked weakly, his head tilting, “What about you?”

“Not really…” she shrugged, “I’ve tried stuff at parties but nothing else stuck.”

“Good,” he said genuinely, pain behind his eyes as he nodded and looked her over.

“C’mon,” he took her hand and urged her into the hall, “Back to bed with you. Food’s almost up, alright?”

Rae didn’t argue, her stomach rumbling embarrassingly loud.

He lingered after she sat at the foot of the bed, kissing her firmly and she held him to her with a hand in his hair, the other running down his bare chest. He allowed the kiss to deepen, his tongue sliding along hers but he shortly leaned away with a sigh.

“You’ll be the death of me, girl,” he whispered, shaking his head.

“I could say the same,” she added, raising a brow at him before tugging him back, her lips pressing to his hard.

He groaned, his fingers moving through her hair and running over her cheek. His thumb stroked over her chin and he held her to him as he devoured her inside and out. She whimpered slightly when he pulled back again, his breath short.

“Okay…” He took a deep breath, “Breakfast,” he reminded them both, smiling wide at her instant pout. He backed a step and turned, hands fisting at his sides.

Doin’ Time II

Finn rubbed his hands together in happy anticipation as Rae finished stirring the batter into smooth waves.

“Let’s have a taste then,” Finn beamed, already reaching for the spoon. Rae smacked his hand away, scowling at his affronted grunt.

“No, there’s raw egg, knobhead,” she protested, holding the bowl away from him.

He kept his arms outstretched around her frame to grab for it and she laughed and shifted as he pressed to her side, her arse sliding across his front. He stiffened, barely stopping his arms from encircling her waist, and instead dropping them to his side. She spun away from him, a cheeky smile in place. She placed the bowl on the counter, a dollop of batter smearing across her thumb. She licked it away without thinking and her eyes widened when Finn raised his brows at her, a devious grin forming.

“So that’s how it’s gonna be?” he drawled, advancing towards her slowly. She kept her back to the bowl and when he reached her, she grabbed his biceps, holding him back.

“Don’t you dare, Nelson,” Rae breathed, her fingers light on his skin. Her grip tightened when he leaned closer to her.

All Mixed Up II

Rae was all moved in a couple weeks later. She was still nervous about it but glad to be with Chloe and saving money.

Unfortunately, her first few days were a bit lonely. Chloe was balancing uni and modeling gigs, both of which kept her out of the house often. Archie, who’s parents apparently owned the house, wasn’t around much either, with his schooling as well as a rumoured relationship. Rae was left to settle in with only Finn there; however, he seemed to be in and out a lot. She guessed he had classes too but she quickly noticed his early morning entrances, sometimes with a girl, sometimes not, but he always ended up passing out somewhere other than his room.

She suspected he was a bit of a drinker, given the state of him when she’d come across his unconscious body but that wasn’t any of her business—she really had no idea what he was about now that they were out of college and older.

Back then, he’d been cocky and somewhat arrogant but showed a totally different side when she’d put him in his place.

Now, he was more subdued and obviously no less of a flirt but the girls he brought home never stayed long. In fact, there wasn't a single time one had been in his room longer than an hour at the most.

Curiosity overwhelmed her and she found herself asking Archie about him, knowing how close they were.

It's 2023, and I'm reminiscing about the very lovely amounts of silliness the very creative MMFD Tumblr indulged in, in the name of Rinn!

This MMFD fanfiction archive was carefully assembled by lovely Shawna (@endemictoearth/@aspiringpolymath) a few years ago, and is still chockablock with Rinn goodness for you to enjoy 😉

[kneekeyta]

Just wanted to say, thank you for your wonderful fanfics! They were a treasure to find and a joy to read. I think I have binged them all, lol. You are such a great and talented writer. Every single story captured their characters beautifully! 🥲💖

Oh my goodness! Thank you thank you THANK YOU!! I’m so ecstatically happy you enjoyed them!! I wasn’t even sure anyone read mmfd fics anymore as I’m rarely on here these days, and it’s fantastic to know they are read. I appreciate you beyond belief!

These two dickheads, along with all of my fellow emus, will have a part of my heart forever. xx

[endemictoearth]

👋 I just want to pop in and say thank you for keeping this blog open! I’ve been rewatching MMFD while I’m sick, and went back through some of your posts to reminisce. It made me miss that time!

But I’m grateful to you for being such a good source for anyone who might find the show, so many quality fics, posts, and laughs. (SOME of us (looks away in embarrassment) might have deleted all our stuff in a fit of pique. Ahem. Anyway). I’m happy it’s here, and happy you’re here, frequency be dammed!

Lol, thank you for still hanging around! It's partially through inertia, but I've also always said that this place is gonna have to shut down around me. I might come and go, but I'm not deleting anything. Host my fics and retumbled memes 4eva, Tumblr overlords!

I'm with you that I really do miss the fervor of MMFD series 2 and even series 3 . . . the most intense fan-sperience of my life, truly. But I'm still always chuffed to see people sending messages like these and kudos-ing my fics on AO3 now and again; the show is great enough to keep people checking it out and looking for more.

[killer-catchy]

sudden spike in my activity because someone got into my mmfd fics

glad they liked them :-)

[commonpeople-fic]

ok, so...I know you promised that you're still working on this story that despite myself I am still obsessed with... and I know we won't get a new chapter until it's complete and perfect, but.... how about a tiny preview, like just a few paragraphes, to keep the dream alive?? :D If you don't want to, I understand and no pressure. I will wait until you feel it's ready! xxx

Dear anon!

You are wonderful, thank you so much for still carrying a torch for this story :) It's been a while since I could devote any brain power to writing, or the time for writing as a hobby, when I needed to write for pay (and you guys know I hate writing, so that was too much writing...).

HOWEVER, from time to time me and @madfatty my lovely beta and friend, had been sporadically working on it. We were making real progress... and then I decided to re-work an entire plot point, so now there's even more writing to do 😐

I guess what I'm saying is - as always - it's coming, only very slowly. And yes, dearest anon, as per your request, here's a small part of the next chapter. Note that it's not fully beta-ed! so all mistakes are mine alone. Oh, and you don't get much of anything really interesting (I know what your guys are really interested in wink wink). But hey.

I hope this helps to restore your faith in me... and thank you for asking! 💖💖💖 Shiri AKA Witchstuff

Excerpt from Common People, chapter 9

... Forty minutes later, Rae is feeling a whole lot better. She’s still got tremors in her hands, she can still feel the choking tears in her aching throat, but when you go through a magical door into an alternate universe made of light and noise and people and excited expectation, other shit tends to fade into the background. 

Rae’s never felt anything like it before. Every fantasy she’s ever had about attending a big concert to watch proper musicians that she loves, has paled in comparison with the feeling of actually standing in the venue, in the middle of the enormous lobby crowded with people who are just as excited as she is. She’s trying to take it all in, her eyes are gobbling it all up, to remember every moment, every sound.

On the one hand, she’s never been anywhere that’s more her in all her life. The noise, the excitement, the fans practically climbing out of their skin from sheer anticipation; that is exactly how she should spend her life. Band T-shirts and the occasional snippet of excited music-related conversation made her feel she’s finally in her element; these are  her people.

On the other hand,it’s all absolutely terrifying. Rae feels uniquely exposed, as if they all can see how clueless she is. As if they all know each other, but she’s a stranger at the party and they can all tell that it’s her first time and that she’s a total poseur who just doesn’t belong.

She’d spent twenty minutes with her back to a wall, as befitting a wallflower who suddenly found herself at the cool kids’ party unprepared. She wants to go exploring, check out the merchandise booth, piled high with Stone Roses garments calling her name. She wants to make eye contact with some of the fans and maybe get into a conversation about her favorite topic. But she just has to hold the wall up, can’t just step away from it, she’s holding her personal sky from falling.

Clasping her hands in a futile attempt to get rid of the tremors, she takes a big breath and shuts her eyes, frantically trying to remind herself this is the best night of her life. They don’t know you, she repeats inwardly, they don’t know you’re not like them. She’s still trying to convince her feet to move, her body to fake confidence and walk to the merch booth, when her ears catch a bit of the conversation taking place not too far from her. “- shouldn’t have worn these dumb clothes. I should’ve put on my own shirt, like that cool girl. Look at her, she’s fucking boss”. “You look hot, though!”, says another girl, sounding apologetic. Her friend’s not having it. Her voice rises in frustration. “I look dumb and I’ve got high heels on, for fuck sake. Is the cool girl wearing high heels? No. She’s got converse on and she looks fucking perfect…” The drive-by convo moves past Rae and now she sees the pretty, leggy blond girl in a hot-pink mini dress throwing adoring looks back her way. Rae almost turns to look for the ��cool girl” in question when she realizes in shock, they’re looking right at her. At Rae.

For a few seconds more, she continues to stare blindly at the spot where both girls (proper girls, girly girls, Chloe-type girls, what her mum wants her to be type-girls), had disappeared into the crowd. 

They were literally talking about her.

Rae smiles and goes exploring. 

+++

She stands in front of the merch booth and she’s close to tears again, this time in frustration at how unfair life is. Every fucking thing on that table is so bloody expensive, Rae would need to go home, get a job, work for a month and come back, and even then she could probably only afford like a key chain or something. She checks out every product anyway, trying to console herself that the designs aren’t that great, that there isn’t that much variety, that she prefers underground stuff made by fans, not corporations… she can almost believe it. 

A bored looking sales girl asks if she can help her. Rae pretends that she’s interested in purchasing a T-shirt. And then, it happens. Of all the things that could go wrong, and really, the way this night is going, it could be anything, the one thing she never expected, was that she’d be standing by the merch table, with an impatient sales girl suggesting loudly that she get a Men’s XXL, because “They don’t make women’s shirts in your size”, and that would be the moment she runs into Finn fucking-everywhere Nelson.

My Mad Fat Diary Fanfic - Chapter 11

Chapter 11: Selfish Mutterings

Archie meets up with Finn and realises how selfish he has been. From trying to avoid Barney, the two end up together once again but Archie cracks. 

also posted on ao3; https://archiveofourown.org/works/20154688/chapters/106548834

Archie hadn’t seen Barney in almost three weeks, not that he was counting. After their last encounter, Archie wasn’t sure how he was supposed to feel. Maybe Barney hadn’t remembered certain parts, they were pretty drunk and when you’re drunk, you can blackout, forget stuff. But Archie didn’t forget, he didn’t forget any of it. And that wasn’t because he was clinging onto meaningless things. No, Archie remembered them because they did actually happen. But what Barney had said at college that day, he clearly had remembered them. He even said those words out loud, even if they were only whispered. But Barney had clearly been thinking about what had happened, why would he have corned Archie if he didn’t care? He could have just ignored it, but maybe that would have been even more awkward. Maybe Archie was overthinking it all, which was something he regularly did.

Archie knew he had to clear his mind of all this Barney stuff, it was messing with his head and honestly, he didn’t want to deal with that anymore. He wanted to actually enjoy the time he had left in Lincolnshire before heading up to Durham and probably never seeing half of these people again. No, that wasn’t true. Maybe he wouldn’t speak to Izzy or Chloe. Maybe not even Rae. Or Chop. But Finn? Well, Archie couldn’t imagine his life without Finn in it. He hadn’t really spoken to Finn much in the past few weeks, too entangled in his own drama. And that wasn’t fair. Finn was always there for Archie, always. Archie had just been selfish, worrying about a boy who didn’t even like him, who didn’t even know what he wanted. It was all so stupid. It was obvious something was going on with Finn and Rae, which Archie didn’t like to see. Those two were perfect for each other, and maybe they’d have a few bumps along the way, but everything needed to work out for them. They both deserved it. Finn was never a big speaker, Archie knew that. And Archie never wanted to pry, but he hadn’t managed to get anything from Rae. She was keeping her lips firmly sealed, as was Chloe, which was very unlike her. Maybe Rae hadn’t told Chloe anything, maybe there wasn’t anything to worry about. Maybe Archie was just being extra cautious.

Archie hadn’t managed to get any more out of Finn when they met up in the park. It was a spur of the moment thing; Archie wasn’t intending of interrogating Finn, but it was nice to have something else to think of. Finn was wearing his signature leather jacket with a loose grey tee and jeans. Archie noticed how scruffy Finn looked, more so than usual. Archie couldn’t say he looked great himself, he was sure he’d worn this t-shirt yesterday, it definitely hadn’t been washed. But Archie doubted that Finn would even care.

“You alright?” Archie greeted Finn, trying to put on a brave face. It was clear to Archie that Finn wasn’t himself, and Archie could say he felt the same. But something felt odd.

“Nah, not really.” Finn was avoiding Archie, making sure not to look at him. It was as if he couldn’t face the two pairs of eyes meeting. Finn knew that the moment they looked at each other, he’d just crumble. Archie knew Finn, maybe more than anyone. Archie was one of the only people Finn could be honest with. But he was struggling with things more now, it had become harder.

“Yeah, I know how you feel.” Archie didn’t want to wallow in self-pity, and after realized how selfish he was being. But in that moment, he felt like only his problems mattered.

“S’up, Arch?” Finn moved to pull out a cigarette, lighting it and glancing over to Archie, watching him intently.

“Nothing, it’s nothing.” That was a lie, a big one. Archie knew it, and so did Finn.

Finn waited a moment before turning to Archie, head on.

“It’s her anniversary, ‘ya know.” Shit, it was. It had been 8 years since Finn’s mum had died. It wasn’t that Archie had forgotten, of course he hadn’t. But Finn didn’t grieve very publicly, not after that first year. Archie sometimes took flowers to her grave, if he was passing. Finn knew this of course, he knew Archie always bought the peonies, but they never spoke about it. Finn rarely spoke about his mum to anyone, only briefly mentioning it to Rae and Archie. Others knew but never wanted to push him. Archie didn’t either, but maybe this was why Finn was struggling. It made Archie’s struggles seem so meaningless. He still had his mum. She had seen him grow up into who he was today. And his mum was always so supportive, she tried her best. Archie couldn’t imagine life without her either.

“Doesn’t feel that long, does it? Like nothing’s changed.” He was wrong of course, so much had changed and sometimes Archie wish he could turn back the clock. Do things differently. But that was never going to happen.

“Everything ‘as, Arch.”

“I know. Have you spoke to Rae-“

“’bout me mum?” Finn questioned Archie, almost confused. He wasn’t talking about Rae, wasn’t thinking about Rae right now. It was obvious the two were having problems, but Finn didn’t want to talk about that, not right now. He wasn’t sure if he even wanted to talk about his mum. But talking to Archie, or even just spending time with him, it had always worked in the past. It had helped, in some way. Distracted him. And that’s what Finn needed.

“About anything. I thought you two were doing alright but-“

“We’re fine.” Finn answered almost at the exact time Archie had finished speaking, as if he knew exactly what Archie was going to say.

“Would Rae say the same? Look, mate, I just care about you, both of you.”

“Should start caring ‘bout ‘self ‘bit more.” That was harsh, Finn knew that, but it had to be said. It was becoming clearer and clearer than something was happening with Archie. Finn didn’t want to force anything out of him, just like he knew Archie wouldn’t do to him. But he cared about it and he wanted to help.

“What’s that supposed to mean?” Feeling taken aback, Archie moved his glasses upwards.

“Come on, Arch. I’m not an idiot. Did ‘ya ever go and see someone, like ‘ya said?”

“No, I don’t…I don’t need to.”

“Right.”

Archie could tell Finn was pissed off, maybe not at him, but it did feel a bit like that. There were only a few times Archie could remember when they had argued or even disagreed. One of the more recent times was when Archie had decided to ask Rae out and then didn’t even bother to turn up. Archie was being a coward. He liked Rae, even back then, more than most people but he just couldn’t bring himself to do it. He’d done it to other girls before, and every single time he was a coward. He couldn’t even tell Rae himself; making Finn do his dirty work. Finn did it, of course he did, he was his best mate. But Archie couldn’t help but feel a little bit of judgement from Finn. Archie knew now that maybe Finn just wanted Archie to be honest with himself. That was the first step.

“I’m sorry. Everything just feels so shit, but you know I’m here if you need?”

“’Course I do, bud.” Finn gave Archie a quick smile, but Archie could have sworn it was genuine.

*

The gang along with some others were hanging down the rec, the spring weather was picking up now and Archie couldn’t wait until the summer. Things just seemed much easier when the sun was blaring down at you. But being closer to the summer meant being closer to everything changing. Archie wasn’t sure if he was quite ready for that yet. He’d been so preoccupied with everything that he’d let his studies slip, only a little, but it enough for him to notice. He hated himself for that, the whole point of everything was for him to go to college, get out and make a life for himself. What was he doing?

But then again, he was only 18. He still had his whole lie ahead of him. He didn’t have to be a constant worrier. Maybe he should try to enjoy himself more. Ignoring everything that had happened over the past few months, when was the last time Archie actually enjoyed himself? Actually smiled. Was actually happy. Archie couldn’t remember. Maybe it was time for him to put himself first for once, and actually put himself first.

With this new state of mind, Archie felt much lighter. It was good to be hanging with the gang, everyone seemed to be getting on as much as they could. After his chat with Finn, he didn’t want to concern himself too much with any troubles Rae and Finn may be having. It was their relationship, not his. But they seemed better today. The two were sitting together, their legs intertwined with each other’s. They seemed to be talking about something, but it didn’t seem too deep. Rae was talking with her hands, whilst Finn watched her, smiling.

Izzy was occupied with Chloe, rambling on about some new film she’d gone to seen. Her and Chop were a little distant, but Chop hadn’t seen to notice. Smoking cigarettes with Little Al and Lizard like he didn’t have a care in the world. Chloe seemed happy, she was laughing and smiling. Her eyes lit up whenever Archie and Chloe locked eyes, he was happy to see her like this.  

One person was missing. The lads hadn’t mentioned anything about Barney, not even acknowledging his absence. Archie hadn’t even noticed at first, he was too occupied trying to focus on something else for a change. It was true that Barney didn’t always turn up, it was very often that he would agree to things but never appear. He was always such a mystery.

But he wasn’t missing today. There he was, walking towards the group slowing, with a big smile on his face.

Barney. Shit. No, not shit. It didn’t matter that Barney was there. Of course, they were bound to bump into each other at some point. Barney didn’t want to talk or think about what had happened, so why should Archie? He wasn’t going to ignore him, that would be dumb, but he wasn’t going fawn all over him either. He was over that now. He didn’t want that. Greeted by the lads, Barney gave them all a wide smile, his teeth glistening in the sunlight. Archie was still sitting down; he hadn’t rushed to say hello and that was obvious to Barney.

“’lright, there, Arch?” Barney stumbled down beside Archie, seemingly ignoring everyone else. Archie could smell the beer from his breath, he was clearly already quite drunk. Much drunker than everyone else there. Barney shifted closer to Archie as he sat, his thighs almost leaning up against the boy beside him.

Archie nodded, trying to move away from Barney as subtly as he could. But in hindsight it didn’t actually matter, considering Barney was pretty drunk. “I’m fine, fine.”

“Well, that’s good, ain’t it?” Barney smiled at Archie; his eyes all dazed. He glanced around to the rest of the group, all in their own little worlds, as if to make sure no one was watching the two. “Beer?” Motioning over to the beer bottles sitting in the middle of the grass, Barney moved over to grab them before Archie could even answer.

“Er, yeah. Sure you should have one? You reek, Barney.” Taking a beer from Barney’s shaking hand, Archie couldn’t help but feel some concern for Barney. He didn’t hate him, far from that, he was worried about him. Regardless of what had happened.

“’t’s fine, stop fussing, Archie.” Barney tried to playfully push Archie off but ended up falling back himself. Archie couldn’t help but smile; Barney making a fool of himself is exactly what Archie needed right now. Archie watched Barney for a moment, before pulling him back up to reality.

“Fine, fine.” Archie nodded, wanting some normality between the two, although he knew it was unlikely that he was going to get it.

Barney seemed to ignore this comment, and just babbled on about pointless shit for the next 10 minutes. He did love the sound of his own voice, Archie understood that at least. And any other time, Archie would have hung onto every word that escaped Barney’s mouth. But not today.

It wasn’t until around 5 minutes later that Barney suddenly stopped look directly at Archie. He looked the way he looked when they kissed those few weeks ago at the party. Archie wasn’t sure whether Barney would do that again. He was drunk but everyone else was around, Barney wouldn’t risk it.

“We should go for a walk, stretch me legs, eh?” Before Archie could even contemplate an answer, Barney had pulled him up and started to walk away from the rest of their friends. He started rambling on about some funny story he thought Archie would like, but Archie wasn’t listening, not really. He wasn’t thinking about the story, but how angry he was getting. How hurt he really was. And how Barney didn’t even seem to know what he’d done.

Barney was acting normal, as it nothing had happened. It was starting to get pretty annoying. Archie hadn’t wanted to mention it, but keeping it hidden wasn’t going to help anyone. Archie was going to crack.

Crack.

All of a sudden, Barney had fallen to the ground. Archie was getting tired of this. Tired of being his helper, tired of tiptoeing around him. Enough was enough.

“Fuck, Archie…” Putting his hands out for Archie to pull him up, Barney smiled at him, as he was expecting Archie to fall down and do exactly what he wanted. But that wasn’t going to happen. Archie watched Barney struggle until he managed to pull himself up without Archie’s help.

“You can’t mess me about, Barney. It’s not fair. You don’t get what it’s like for me! It’s been … it’s been fucking hard, ‘lright? Guys like you, you just …you don’t know the effect you can have.” Archie tried his best to not raise his voice but he just couldn’t help it. He was angry now. It just wasn’t fair.

“Mate!” Barney seemed confused, which only made Archie more annoyed. Why wasn’t he getting it? Why did he think this was all OK?

“You can’t just… do the things you do and say the things you say!” The desperation was seeping through Archie’s voice, he just couldn’t take it anymore. He wanted Barney to at least understand. Archie couldn’t keep it all bottled up, not now.

“Mate, I get it, ‘lright? I do. ‘m sorry. Didn’t mean to ‘urt you, you’re a mate.”

“A mate? Right. Mates. You shouldn’t keep kissing a mate and then decide you don’t like it. That’s not on. I already get enough shit from people” Archie was angry, really angry. There’s only been a few standout moments in Archie’s life when he felt like he was going to explode. “I don’t need you making me look like an idiot.” Archie said calmly, but still making sure to Barney that he didn’t want to be messed about anymore and he wasn’t going to take it sitting down.

“You’re not an idiot, Arch. I… ‘m sorry. Real sorry. Fucked up, didn’t I? Forgive me? Please, Arch.” It had finally come, Barney had finally realized or at least started to understand what was happening. Barney tugged on Archie’s arm, hard, as if he didn’t want to ever let go. His eyes were wide, and he mind seem to be working quickly. But that didn’t matter. Archie had said what he’d wanted to say and there nothing else to be done.

“I think I need to go home. I’ll see ‘ya around Barney.”

MMFD Fanfic Round-Up March-April-May 2018

Yikes! Sorry, gang, I’ve been alternately busy, sick, traveling, reading books for my goodreads challenge, ETC and time just slipped right away! 

Thanks so much to all the writers for continuing to tag me; it’s made this a LOT easier to catch up with. I promise to try not to let it get away from me again, but we all know it might happen. My intentions are good, I swear!

As ever and always, PLEASE let me know if I’ve missed any fics. I’ve checked all the usual tags, and I think I’ve included everything I’ve been tagged IN, but since this is a larger time-frame than usual, it’s likely that something has fallen through the cracks. 

Happy reading, fan-dem!

I’m committing to absolutely nothing, but I’m bored until school starts again in February (don’t tell my boss or she’ll find something 🤷‍♀️). ANYWAYS, is MMFD fic completely dead? I need a hobby again. But first I need an idea, hm. I miss when people would just throw out prompts.

Currently rewatching MMFD start to finish for the umpteenth time and I forgot how much I love it.

Part two...

—-

Ruby and Joshua were the first to find out about our engagement with my mom a close second. I mean I didn't know she was was ears dropping from the other side of the bedroom door, well not until she burst through the door screaming in excitement.

It was a bit awkward when josh asked about Olivia and Gregory, but Finn did a great job at explaining they were no longer in the picture when he saw me awkwardly gawking at them. Ruby was happy that she no longer had to deal with Olivia anymore, and so was I.

Mom didn't give me a chance to tell Karim, Roberto, Mark and Julian. She was on the phone the minute she found out, but they all called us to say congratulations.

We were currently on our way to Finn's parents house where all his siblings were now gathered to welcome home his sister Mika from Oxford, and apparently Finn was in for the shock of his life according to Archie.

We still hadn't told them about our engagement but Finn told me that he informed them a few weeks ago that we were together again. He also said it was a struggled to keep his mom away but after explaining to her that I was still recovering she understood. This would be the first time seeing them in over 2 years, I was more then nervous.

"Babe, don't stress they are excited to see you" Finn spoke next to me. I was currently looking out the window, whilst Finn drove and the kids watched a movie in the back seat.

Sighing I turned to face him, "But after everything that has happened..."

"Rae, I've already told them what happened. They don't blame you, nobody blames you for leaving me. You reacted like any normal would. If anyone was at fault, it would be me. I should of realised what was going on, and what she was doing."

"Don't even go there Finn" I berated just as we pulled up to his parents house. "You did nothing wro-"

"LOOK MUMMY! UNCLE ARCHIE!" Ruby interrupted pointing frantically at Archie as he walked towards the car.

Finn leaned over a kissed my lips softly, "we'll talk about it later babe."

I got ruby out of her car seat whilst Finn grabbed Joshua. Archie came over and kissed my cheek, it was good to see him more. I never realised how much I actually missed him until I had him back in my life. That reminds me, I really need to get Chloe and Izzy around for a coffee and a catch up soon.

"Why do you look like someone kicked your cat?"

"I do not!" Archie quipped.

"Oh really? So why the long face?" Finn replied.

"Because I'm afraid of blood."

"Who's bleeding!" I frantically started checking the kids faces. Luckily both were clean.

"Nobody... Yet" Archie grimmest.

"What the bloody hell are you talking about then!"

"In about one minute a very excited Mika is going to run out here to greet her big brother. Thats when your going to discover a very big, very round-"

"FIIIIIIIIIIIN! OH MY GOD! FIINN!"

The moment Mika made her way towards us I knew what Archie was talking about. My eyes couldn't help but look to Finn, who stood stiffly at my side. His skin was a little flush, but the moment I saw the glare Finn was giving his sister I knew he was not happy.

I admired the women's confidence, she didn't even bat an eyelid at Finn's borderline hostile behaviour. She just elegantly pranced towards him with her arms wide open, showing off her very large, round-

"Oh Finn! I'm so excite to see you! It's been really two years, oh my freaking god! And Rae, oh my god I'm so happy to see you again, you look radiating!" Mika kissed my cheek then returned to hugging her big brother again.

Did I meant they were close? No? Well the Mika I knew idolised her brother, he was her knight in shining armour. He loved her just as much, being his youngest sister. She had been a sister to me as well, I lost count at the number of Disney marathons we had. Even into my late 20's.

"What the hell do you call that?" Finn said grabbing her shoulders.

"What do you mean?"

There's one thing you should know about Finn. He had always been very overprotective of his little sister, to the point of breaking her ex-boyfriends nose for trying to hug Mika after a date. Mind you, Finn and I were also on a date as well and had to leave the restaurant early just to make sure she was returned before curfew.

"I mean what the fuck do you call that!"

Finn pointed towards the very round, and very large rock nestled on her ring finger. He snatched up her left hand and inspected the diamond mega-stone, it looked like it cost more then my yearly salary.

"Well you see Finn" she tried pulling her hand out of Finn's grip, "I met a man in England. A lovely, kind man. Who I love dearly! He's a surgeon! Oh and did I tell you he's related to the Queen! Please Finn I was going to tell you sooner but I didn't know how! Please don't hurt him! I love him!"

Mika looked stressed out of her mind, like she had totally forgot about how Finn would react when he saw it. She had been away from her big brother too long.

"Darling?"

A tall man spoke as he joined Mika's side. He was quite handsome. Blonde hair, defined jawline, and immaculately dressed may I add. He oozed confidence, much like his fiancé. He didn't even look fazed by Finn who still had a face like thunder.

"Harrison!" Mika squeaked. She looked surprised to see him standing next to her all of a sudden. "I'm just saying hello to my brother. Finn this is Harrison, Harrison this is my eldest brother Finn." I could see her trying her best to calm her nerves during the introduction. I smiled at her recovery.

"Nice to meet you Finn" Harrison greeted sticking his hand out for Finn to shake.

Reluctantly Finn shook the mans hand. "You Too Harrison."

Mika managed to drag Harrison away after a short, very awkward conversation that Archie dominated. I walked up to Finn wrapping my arms around his neck, taking a moment to admire my own engagement ring. Archie had taken the kids inside knowing that Finn needed a moment.

"I can't believe she's getting married." Was all he said before burying his head into the crook of my neck.

"She was bound to one day."

"But why did it have to be now! This was our moment!" Finn sounded like a wounded child and i couldn't help but laugh.

"We've already had that moment Finn when we got engaged the first time. We're still going to tell them tonight, we have to. They will see the ring on my finger. You can see how much she adores Harrison. She'll be alright."

"He's such a pretty boy though!"

"Come on Finn, we need to go inside. I'm pretty sure your mom is watching us from her bedroom window" I chuckled.

"My whole family is crazy. Come on before she comes out here and drags us in."

"I think it's already to late." I said when once again the front door flew open. I think was going to need to be put on heart medication before the visit is over.

The end...
