A/N, PLEASE READ FIRST: 2 months ago, I gave you guys the chance to choose the 101th post and you guys are the best for taking time to interact with it. But I ran into major writers block while in the process of writing In Love With a Stripper. I can’t seem to form a plot so I gave up which it lead it being 2 months without posting. I’m sorry. My winter break starts Dec 8 be ready for some one shots & stories to drop.

Word Count: 2,193

Pairing: Nick Jonas x BlackFem!OC

Warning: Swearing & Fluff.

Summary: This is the second version of my Camp Rock 2 story. In that story, Nova meets Nate at Camp Rock, and they spend their entire time at camp together. It’s years later, and they meet again, but his name is not Nate; it’s Nick. Nick Jonas.

-First-person-

I wanted to do a self care day. My modeling job was stressing me out badly plus life itself has been feeling over whelming. My mom was babysitting Kordell, my son, for me since I was wanting alone time. I was once married but we divorced since he couldn’t learn to grow up. What do I look like taking care of a man child?

"I have appointment set up for Nova Dream." I said nicely to the worker behind the counter. I was getting my feet done and I decided to get the color blue. My phone buzzed in my pocket while I sat in the chair.

The contact picture showed my mom saying that she was face timing me. I pulled out my AirPods putting them in my ear then answered.

"Is everything okay?"

"Everything's alright Nova. Kordell is missing you that's all."

As her mother said that, he grabs the phone showing his cute dimples.

"Momma!"

"Yes baby?"

"Can you bring something to eat back? Grandpa taking to long." Kordell whined laying on my mom’s chest.

"Mom where did Dad go?"

"He went to go get something to eat for us but he has been gone since 11 a.m. this morning."

I checked the time on my phone see that it was 2 something.

"Okay well I'll bring some food."

When the conversation was done, I stayed at the nail shop for another thirty minutes getting my nails done as well. I left going to In-and-Out burger getting everyone something to eat. After ordering my food, I stood to the side so I wouldn’t be in the way.

As I swiped on facebook, I felt a presence come closer to me. "Hey, you look really familiar so I wanted to speak. I'm Nick, Nick Jonas." This guy said introducing him holding out his hand. I was so confused but still shook his hand anyway.

"Nova Dream, but um I can't really see your face with the shades so I'm very confused." I said with a smile on my face. He had black hoodie on with shades. Nick pulled his shades off and then I completely remembered him.

"Oh yes!! Nick from Camp Rock. That was when we was what 17? Wow you look great!" I compliment taking in his features. He look so much older, mature and sexy.

"Yea I went M.I.A. for a while getting myself together. I'm surprised you still remember Camp Rock. You look beautiful, honestly." He smiled then put his shades back on his face. I wondered why he had to do that but I payed it no mind. The employee called my name for my food.

"It’s good seeing you Nick. Hopefully I’ll see you around?" I said when I came back from the front counter. Nick was still waiting for his so he was by the tables.

"Yea but I was wondering if I could get your number?So we can be able to hang out and get closer like we use to be." Nick suggested holding out his phone, having a smile on his face. I nodded smiling hard as hell grabbing the phone.

He is to fine for me to pass this up.

" Yea that's fine, don't hesitate to call me!" I placed a soft kiss on his cheek, making him blushing hella hard.

"I won't beautiful."

I wave bye, pushing the exit door. Our moment ran through my head as I walked to my car. Omg I got his number without even asking. I vibed to Summer Walker as I drove home, sipping on my sweet tea along the way. I was able to bring Kordell his food in a timely manner so he won't go all hangry on me.

My phone buzzed. Okay I might’ve swerved a bit to quickly answer it but anyway.

-This Nick !

-Okay! I’m saving your contact now.

I took my mother her food into her room while Kordell and I sat in the living room. We ate good then I began to watch a romance movie while Kordell colored in his coloring book.

" Momma ?" Kordell questioned while getting right under me as we sat on the couch. I was all in my phone at first.

"Yes baby?" I answered giving him my full attention .

"Can we go somewhere tomorrow?" He asked hopefully. I didn’t think twice, nodding my head yes and he was so happy. "I want to go to a trampoline park!"

"We'll go just cause you want too." I exclaimed giving him a forehead kiss and I swear my baby had the biggest smile on his face. I texted my manager that I was going to take the day off.

MrJonas- Are you free tonight ?

Dreamy- I'm at my moms but I could ask her to watch my son.

Mr Jonas- Okay well ask, I think you would enjoy tonight.

Dreamy- Okay gotcha!

I wonder what it is? Or where we’re going? I hope it's fun. I walked into my parents room to see my mom in the bed. My dad was brushing his teeth in the bathroom.

"Hey Mom is it okay if you could watch Kordell? A friend wants to take me out tonight." I inquire hesitantly not wanting her to get mad or anything.

"A friend? Who? Dee our baby's dating againn!!" My Mom stated excitedly sitting down her phone. My Dad walked out the bathroom with his toothbrush in his mouth.

"Dating?! Finally so you can stop coming over so much. Me and your momma be tryna fuck." Dad said laughing then started dancing. I looked at him with a scrunched face.

"Eww Dad!"

"Pay him no mind but then again he ain't lying.” They both high fived, laughing as if it was the funniest thing ever. I just rolled my eyes even though a smile crept on my face from the contagious laughter. “Okay y’all I get it.”

“We’ll watch Kordell, no problem." Mom smiled getting out the bed to follow me to the living room.

"Baby I'm going to come get you in the morning so we can go to the trampoline park okay? Be good for grandma!" I reminded while kissing all over his face. Kordell laughed trying to get away from me.

"I love you momma." He smiled kissing my cheek.

"I love you too baby."

-------------------------

I decided to keep my outfit simple since it was my first time hanging out with him. I was super nervous about seeing him again. My uber driver pulled up to a very modern bar.

"Thanks Mark!" I waved to them and he nodded his head pulling off. It was best if I got a driver to drive instead of me cause I knew I wanted to drink.

"Nova you made it! You look amazing." Nick spoke to me as soon as I walked in. He held his arms out for a hug so I gave him one back blushing hard as hell.

"Thanks Nick, I didn't want to over dress."

"You look good either way. The party is inside so let me guide you to where everyone else is." He assured then grabbed my hand pulling me inside. I was nervous because who is everyone? I then saw a bunch of faces that looked so familiar as we got closer to the section.

this was going to be a fun night like he said.

I caught up with so many people from Camp Rock it was ridiculous. I was honestly having so much fun, more then I have had in months. Yes, I was drunk off my ass. Did I mention that Nick rented the whole bar for tonight? He did and it was only just us.

My face was literally hurting from all the smiling I was doing . Nick kept his arm around my waist or held my hand all night, like he didn’t want to let me go and I didn't mind.

We found out more about each other like how he was single and that he was a famous pop singer. Like really famous.

"Ayeeee let me show you guys how it's done!!"I yelled when I heard WAP come through the speakers.  Demi hyped me up as I took a shot of whatever available then I walked over to Nick.

"I need you to sit still while I do what I do!" I ordered to Nick pointing my finger at him. He bit his lip nodding.

"Yes ma'am."

I used my Megan knee's twerking in a squat position. Nick hands never left my waist, I could feel his friend get hard under me.

"You really ain't never gotta fuck him for a thang

He already made his mind up 'fore he came

Now get your boots and your coat

For this wet-ass pussy

He bought a phone just for pictures

Of this wet-ass pussy"

"When I get my chance, I'm going to fuck the shit out of you." He demanded in my ear. That shit turned me on all the way.

"Yes daddy." I teased getting off of him leaving him a mess. He left me a mess as well so I stumbled all the way to the bathroom. I hoped that gave him the idea to follow me.

Am I going to fast? I mean at this point we grown so if I want some dick, I want some dick. lolll

"You’re a real disrespectful bitch." A woman walked up to me when I got closer to the bathroom entrance.

"Who the hell you talking too? Bitch I don’t even know you." I spoke as my attitude start to grow. I placed my phone on the ground in case she was trying to get active.

“You’re twerking on Nick as if he doesn’t have a girlfriend. Are you crazy? I’m going to tell her.” She sneered as our eye contact never broke. I shrugged my shoulders because I don’t know anything about this man but I wasn’t going to let the disrespect slide either.

"You should take that up with him not me the fuck? You don’t know me bitch so calm down before I give you a reason why you gone know me.”

I’m drunk as fuck, and I don’t even know for sure if I can beat this girl ass but I’m going to try.

“I’m not scared of you.” She start sitting her purse on the ground and now I’m balling my fist. I guess our moment caught attention from other people. “ And I’m not scared of-“

“Alli ? What are you doing here? You need to leave.” Nick came in between our heated conversation. Alli shook her head, picking up her purse.

“You’re fucking wrong Nick!”

He waved her off as she left then turns to me. “Nova, I’m sorry that you had to interact with her-“

“I’m leaving now.” I’m so pissed off right now but I’m still drunk. I leaned forward to get my phone from the ground but I fell forward. I fucking fell forward.

That was it. I already had to ruin my fun, arguing with some bitch that’s friends with Nick’s supposedly girlfriend. On top of that, I just fell and the world is still spinning. Ughhhh!

“Nova are you okay?” He reached forward to help me up but I knew he was trying to keep from laughing. I tried not to use his help but it was the only way get me on my feet.“No I’m not fine! Move!" I cried out trying to push him off of me but he didn’t move.

“Nova you are fucked up. I have to help you.” Nick tries to place his hand on waist but I moved it. “No Nick. You- You didn’t tell me you had a girlfriend! Do you know how embarrassed I am right now? No you don’t. You don’t!” I stumbled away from him but didn’t manage to get far.

Nick arm snaked around my waist. “Look Nova, I’m not with her. If I was, we wouldn’t even be communicating with each other right now.” He pulled me closer to him and inhaled that magnificent smell of his cologne. “Come on now Nova, you’re too fucked up to do anything so let me take care of you.”

“No!”

But my denies went ignored and Nick picked me up bridal style. "Bro I'm going to take her home because she is too fucked up. I’m going to call you." Nick said to Joe and they did their handshake. No I wasn’t done being mad, but his chest was comfortable.

"Alright, don't forget. Feel Better Nova." Joe stated rubbing my arm. We walked out the bar to being surrounded with paparazzi. Eventually, we were in the vehicle and I could hear my own thoughts.

“Nova?”

“I don’t want to talk to you.” I grumbled putting my knees closer towards the window.

“Don’t be like that. When you’re sober, I’ll answer any question you want to ask me.”

The darkness was making my eyes heavier. I didn’t have enough energy to respond as the world grew darker and this seat felt amazing. I was out like a light.

moving in

September 6, 2024

Gemma smiled fondly at her mother’s worrying and just let her mother ramble while she hugged her.

Gemma knew her parents were sad and nervous with Gemma moving out officially, it was a bit different than when she was away from home because of hockey and staying with someone or her going to collage, she is officially moving out of her home and starting a new chapter in her life.

“Mom i’ll be fine.” Gemma softly reassured her mom, she knew her mom would be worried because she was just as worried last year when Adam moved out.

“I know.” Julia agreed cupping her youngest cheek, it still shocked her everyday how fast her kids had all grown up and that Gemma is already eighteen.

“I’ll see you in a few weeks.” Gemma reminded her parents squeezing her Dad’s hand.

Gemma was already confirmed to be on the team on the upcoming season and her parents were planning to come see her first game that would be in Prague, unfortunately Adam definitely won’t be able to go and Luca most likely won’t be able to either.

Julia nodded and pressed a kiss to her only daughter’s head, “Ti Amo my Gem.” Julia softly whispered to her daughter.

“Ti Amo Mama.” Gemma sweetly whispered back and politely ignored the tears in her mom’s eye and she hugged her Dad softly.

Giuliano pressed a gentle kiss to his only daughter’s cheek. They didn’t need to share any words just a look with a smile before he let her go and wrapped an arm around his wife.

Luca frowned feeling incredibly old that his baby sister is old enough to live in her own apartment with her boyfriend all alone in a new city, “Are you going to be okay Gems?” Luca asked worriedly.

Luca has always has hated how much Gemma has been alone because of hockey because for almost his entire life he always had Adam and when he moved away from home he had Adam with him but Gemma is always on her own.

“I’m gonna be okay.” Gemma softly reassured her eldest brother, she was looking forward to start a new chapter in her life especially with Macklin. She was about to start living out the dream she has had for years she was excited not sad.

Luca slowly nodded believing Gemma’s words, “Okay.” Luca pulled her into a hug, “I’ll see you soon.” Luca promised and hugged her tighter before reluctantly letting her go and ticking her hair behind her ear and giving her one more soft smile before walking over to their parents.

“Come here.” Adam opened his arms for his baby sister and hugged her tightly, “Have fun okay. Enjoy this you have earned it.” Adam softly told her rubbing her back and he kissed the top of her head.

They pulled back from each other sharing one more smile with each other before Gemma started walking them out

She leaned on the door watching her family get in the elevator as she waved softly at them. She thought she would be more sad but if anything she’s excited to be living with Macklin.

Gemma watched the elevator doors close, Macklin came up behind her wrapping his arms around and his chin resting on her shoulder as she closed their front door.

Macklin’s family had only left a few minutes before Gemma’s family after they said their goodbyes to Macklin.

“You okay?” Macklin asked her softly kissing her cheek softly.

Gemma nodded slowly, “Yeah i’m okay.” Gemma softly reassured him as her hand rested over his hands. Leaving for Chicago a few years was a lot harder for Gemma but she is use to being away form her family most of the year now, doesn’t mean she doesn’t miss them all the time but she is used to it.

Macklin nodded accepting her answer as he knows what’s she means as Gemma started walking to their couch with Macklin still holding her from behind.

Macklin reluctantly let go of her so they go sit together in the couch and they looked out at the windows of the beautiful view of New Jersey.

Macklin wrapped an arm over her shoulder as Gemma cuddled into his side with her legs draped over his lap and he grabbed the pink throw blanket that was on the couch and threw it over them.

Macklin and Gemma were almost fully moved in already as their family were there to help them unpack and they also don’t have a lot of stuff between them yet.

Macklin thought Gemma had done really well decorating their apartment not that he expected anything else.

Gemma kept it pretty simple in decorations but there are few pink accents decorations that Macklin loves because it reminds him of her.

“We should get flowers when we get groceries later.” Gemma told Macklin as she was looking around the living room, dinning room and kitchen from where she was sitting on the couch and she saw the empty vases that she wanted pink flowers in.

“Whatever you want.” Macklin smiled softly kissing the top of her head, he had already planned to get flowers when they went out later knowing how much Gemma loves to have fresh flowers.

Gemma hummed softly back and closed her eyes letting out a soft sigh as she leaned her head on his chest, “I love you.” Gemma softly whispered to her best friend who is also her boyfriend.

“I love you too my sweet girl.” Macklin softly whispered back rubbing her back gently, “I got you a present.” Macklin grinned as he saw her head look up for her to peak at him.

“What is it?” Gemma asked curiously.

“Let me go get it.” Macklin gently sat up letting go of Gemma and walked to his room real quick and grabbed the small box out of his bag and opened it grabbing the thing in the box and walked back.

“Close your eyes.” Macklin softly told her hiding his hand behind his back. Gemma smiled and closed her eyes.

Macklin sat back down on the couch and moved her hair off her back and gently laid the necklace down on her chest shutting it close. He pressed a kiss to the back of her neck, “Open it.”

Macklin smiled watching as she looked down at the necklace and noticed the charm, a small 17, “Since it’s our number now.” Macklin told her already loving seeing her in their number.

Gemma beamed touching the necklace gently, it was perfect, small enough she could wear it all the time even for hockey, she turned towards him and pressed her lips to his, “Thank you Amore.”

“Always.” Macklin flushed a little red as he smiled at her and kissed her again.

The way you ease my trepidation

Kyle 'Gaz" Garrick x F! Black OC (Clarissa Edwards)

Because I keep seeing posts on people excluding our guy Gaz who's LITERALLY THE MAIN CHARACTER YOU PLAY IN MWI and MWII!!!!!

The storyline follows my main fanfic from Part 15 II - Simon 'Ghost' Riley x F!MedicDoc OC (codename: Blue) 💀💙

WARNINGS: Profanity, fluff, medical inaccuracies (because all my knowledge regarding medicine comes from Grey's Anatomy and that one stint I did as a first aider)

A/N: This is my first time writing a black character, I've heavily used @writingwithcolor as a guide to ensure I am doing my best to represent the characters. Please do let me know if there are any issues!

Song inspo: 'No Blame' - Christina Chong, Move - Milo Greene, Maan Meri Jaan - King and Nick Jonas, Phantom Studies - Marcel Dettmann and Ben Klock

As Kyle made his way to the RAMC building, Soap's voice echoed in his head.

"Can't feel my legs"

"Lt I'm not gonna make it"

He tightened the grip he had on his vest that he still had not taken off, tainted with Soap's blood when helped Ghost with packing the cellox into the gunshot. Checking his watch it was 12:15pm.

Doc should be done by now he thought to himself as he walked through the double doors, walking past all the medical personnel and straight to reception.

He was met by an empty desk, and looking around the wards he could not see the Doctor nor any other authority figure. Kyle slid his hand into his back pocket retrieving his keycard.

The ambush from AQ when they were in Al Mazrah was something they had not expected, especially not with the kind of hardware they were carrying. State of the art machine guns, snipers, RPGs and up armoured vehicles. All this reeked of Makarov's doing.

Squeezing his fist tighter at the thought of Makarov's smug face made his blood boil. He smacked the reception desk hoping to release some of his built up anger, but it didn't help.

It was then he noticed the big whiteboard behind the desk on the wall and moved closer to it, scanning down the list of patient names until he found John MacTavish, his eyes slid across the row and saw Dr Hari Kaur and Dr Peyton Marie as surgeons assisted by Nurse Clarissa Edwards, Nurse Jenny Mao and Nurse Mikey Way. He then saw he was in the ICU bed 12. Looking down at his all-access keycard, Kyle grinned slightly and made his way to the double doors where the sign pointed ICU.

Once he arrived at the ICU, Kyle made his way to bed 12. There he saw Soap, laying on his back, eyes still closed and intubated. Cables where attached to Soap which were connected to the machines surrounding him, beeping rhythmically. The pipe coming out of his mouth was so unnatural an uneasy sick feeling settled in Kyle's stomach as he stepped closer.

"Soap?" He said, hoping that somehow the Scotsman could hear him and wake-up.

But no answer.

"Jesus" He whispered as he rested his hands against the bed where Soap laid. "You gotta wake up mate" He said nudging his left hand slightly.

Still no response.

Kyle sighed and closed his eyes, running his calloused hands through his hair and scratching the nape of his neck.

"Excuse me, what are you doing in here?" A voice behind him said sharply. Kyle turned, his eyes met a nurse dressed in baby pink scrubs that made her deep sepia skin glow, there was a green stethoscope wrapped around her neck that was crowned by black braids that swayed as she moved closer to him. In her hands she carried a tray with a big bag of liquid with a long thin pipe coming out of it.

"Err.. came here to see Soap" Kyle said, trying to remain cool, straightening up to appear more authoritative

"Dr Marie said I could see him" he lied, hoping she won't pester him...

"Really?" She said, her brown eyes widening, a grin appeared on her face. "When did you speak to her?" She asked moving over to Soap setting aside the tray on the overbed table, and then checked his charts that was in the folder hanging on the end of the bed near his feet.

Kyle cleared his throat. Gotta bullshit my way out of this he thought

"Few minutes ago in reception" He said, smiling at the nurse, trying to look at her keycard to identify her.

The nurse looked up from the chart and at Kyle, and raised her left eyebrow.

"Now, that's a lie as Dr Marie is currently snoring her head off in the on call room."

A wave of guilt and anxiety rushed over Kyle as he was rumbled.

"Err-" Kyle stuttered as he looked around the ICU, shifting his weight before looking back at the nurse who was still giving him a cautious look.

"I'm sorry I lied, just needed to make sure he was okay" Kyle admitted, looking back at Soap.

The nurse slightly relaxed, putting away the charts back in the folder and looked at Kyle as he gazed upon Soap. Her gaze met his and his eyes wandered back to her, she gave him a sympathetic smile.

"Alright, five more minutes, I need to give him some meds so you can stay here with me." She sighed moving towards the alcohol gel dispenser, squirting the foam on her hands before rubbing them together.

"Thanks Doc" Kyle said grinning at her

The nurse laughed "I'm nurse Clarissa Edwards, not a doctor" She said "Doctors wear blue scrubs, nurses wear pink or green" She added putting on a pair of pale blue gloves.

"Ah okay, that makes sense" Kyle said, now remembering Dr Kaur always wearing blue scrubs "It's nice to meet you Clarissa, I'm Sergeant Kyle Garrick"

"Nice to meet you too Sergeant" Clarissa said, giving him a big smile. Kyle watched as she moved over to the tray on the overbed table, grabbing the IV bag and hooking it onto the IV stand, and then moved to Soap's right hand, taking the stopper out of the cannula on the front of his hand, inserting a syringe with saline to flush the cannula.

"What's that you doin'?" Kyle asked curiously, peeking over to see what Clarissa was doing

"Just doing a saline flush, making sure any residual medicine is pushed into his vein, and prevents infection." She said, briefly looking over at Kyle's curious face.

"Ah I see" Kyle says "Did the operation go well?" He asked

Clarissa looked up. It was natural and normal for fellow soldiers to be perplexed about medical procedures, especially when their teammates were involved.

"The op went well, Dr Kaur and Dr Marie did their best" She said, not taking her eyes off the cannula as she attached the line of the IV bag.

Kyle hesisted a bit, his left leg began to shake rapidly, the heel of his boot making a rapid tapping sound against the vinyl floor. Clarissa looked down at his foot and then back up to Kyle's concerned face, sensing the oncoming trepidation.

"He got shot in the back" Kyle blurted without thinking, looking at Clarissa, who narrowed her eyes and then returned to the cannula, using an alcohol wipe to clear up the dirt between Soap's fingers.

Kyle wanted to smack his head against the wall. Stupid thing to say, of course she knew that he thought, turning away from Clarissa he rolled his eyes and brought his right hand to his face, running his forefinger and thumb across his brows.

Clarissa took her gloves off, and took a deep breathe in through the nose before exhaling through her mouth.

"The bullet was removed, there was a bit of nerve damage, but Dr Kaur did a neural graft. We won't know the full extent of any damages until he wakes up" She said to Kyle who still had his back to her.

Kyle turned back around

"He said he couldn't feel his legs on the helo" Kyle said, eyes glazed with tears as his mind took him back to the moment in the helo when Soap said those exact words to them.

Clarissa moved away from Soap and then walked around the bed, facing directly towards Kyle.

"You and your team did the best you could, the cellox was a great call, it definitely saved his life" She said, placing her hand on Kyle's shoulder.

Kyle felt a ripple of warmth wash over him as she placed her hand on him, he gazed at Clarissa, who smiled at him, he was struck by her striking beauty and kindness.

"It will take time, at the moment, it is a bit too early as he needs rest to aid recovery" Clarissa stated, smiling at Kyle. "We are keeping an eye on him, and we have the best doctors and nurses around in case anything happens" She added

Kyle's anxiety eased as she continued to reassure him that Soap would be okay.

"I suggest you also get some rest Kyle, I'll give you a call when he wakes up" She said

The continued reassurance and smiles that Clarissa gave him additional comfort. Kyle felt at ease.

"Thanks Clarissa, I'm sorry for barging in and lying" He said, looking guiltily at her

Clarissa laughed and smiled broadly which made Kyle's heart flutter as she gently tapped him on the the shoulder.

"Better get going, don't want to get in trouble" She said

"Ah I won't get in trouble don't worry" He said smiling back as he headed towards the door.

"Not worried about you! I'm saying me! Only authorised personnel are allowed in the ICU, especially not those covered in blood and dirt... no offence" Clarissa said, winking Kyle.

"Shit," Kyle said, realising he dragged his dirty combat boots into the ICU, breaking the clean protocol, he hurried to the door and opened the door, allowing Clarissa to walk through first who had whispered a thank you to him as she passed.

They walked out down the corridor back towards a now busy reception area.

Kyle turned to Clarissa who moved behind the reception desk, grabbing a whiteboard pen before scribbling the names of medicine and time administered on the row where Soap's name was. She turned towards Kyle who was still standing by reception.

"Thanks again Clarissa, you were really helpful" He said, smiling back.

"No problem Kyle, I promise to call you when he wakes up and when I get proper authorisation from either Dr Marie or Dr Kaur" She said, laughing slightly as Kyle widened his eyes at the mention of Dr Marie.

"You won't tell her-" He began

Clarissa's eyes widened and she shook her head as she noticed Dr Jones walk in behind Kyle.

"Clarissa, I need you to check on Miles in ward 3" He said not making any eye contact with her and moved towards the board.

"Yes sir" She said looking at him cautiously as he scanned the board "I'll speak to you later Kyle" She said finally before walking off. Kyle watched on as she walked off

"Bye Clarissa!" He yelled at her and laughed as she turned and gave him another wink.

Kyle walked back out the doors of the RAMC and basked in the sun that shone down on base. Relief washed over him as he took a big inhale through the nose. Checking his watching it was 1:36pm, he had been up for over 24 hours, and decided to take Clarissa's advice of getting some well deserved rest as he headed back to his quarters.

He hoped to see that dazzling smile soon.

When the outbreak happened, he was in his room, reading until he heard his older brother yelling. When he went to check what was going on, he saw two zombies eating his mom. He   lets out a horrific scream as his brother practically threw him, his sister's bunny Fluffball, the family dog Rofee and his sister into the van and drove off. They soon find Pedro who raises them like his own children. In season 5, the Delkins siblings and their dad were reunited.

Once Eddie and his dad were alone, Eddie's dad told him about his plan to wipe out the survivors and demanded him to join them, even guiltripping him but Eddie refused, causing his dad to go off the edge. He soon went  to the survivors and attacked them with the Fireflies. But the fight stopped when Eddie shot his dad. And the rest is history :D

August 5, 2024

Gemma and Macklin followed Adam into a Michigan Hockey Rink where Adam had been training the past few weeks and last off season as well. Also where Gemma knows Luke trains too so she is happy she will get to see him.

Gemma invited Macklin to come spend time with her and her family in Michigan and to train together before the season starts.

Gemma and Macklin both set their hockey bags down and one of the equipment workers took the bags to the locker room.

Adam went around and introduced Gemma and Macklin to a few people they found walking around and they walked into the locker room and Gemma beamed seeing Luke.

“Luke!” Gemma beamed as she softly called out and Luke turned away from his brothers smiling as he saw Gemma and immediately pulled her into a hug.

“Hey Emmie.” Luke softly spoke to his newest teammate. Luke was ecstatic when Gemma was drafted to the New Jersey Devils.

Quinn and Jack shared an excited look as they will finally get to meet the girl that Luke seems to care for a lot and sees as a little sister.

Jack had immediately gotten Gemma’s number from Luke when she got drafted to the Devils and he already texted her quite a bit. He knows first hand how much pressure it is to he the first overall pick and he wants to make sure his teammate enjoys her year.

“Emmie this is Jack and Quinn!” Luke kept an arm over her shoulder as he introduced her to his brothers.

“Hi.” Gemma sweetly and shyly smiled at the two. She has heard a lot about them from Luke.

Luke could see Jack’s entire face soften and Quinn’s eyes soften at Gemma and Luke smirked not surprised as Gemma is just adorable and easy to love.

“It’s nice to finally meet you Gemma!” Jack beamed and hugged Gemma softly. Gemma giggled softly and hugged Jack back.

“Nice to meet you too Jack.” Gemma sweetly said back and she has texted quite a bit with Hack since the draft so was excited to finally meet him.

“Hello Gemma.” Quinn kindly and gently spoke to the young girl and she gently shook Quinn’s hand that he has outstretched.

Gemma smiled happily, “Hi!”

Jack and Quinn shared a look completely understanding how Luke adores Gemma. She is so adorable and they knew she would absolutely become incredibly important to them just as she is already to Luke.

“Hey Mack.” Luke greeted Gemma’s boyfriend. Luke gave a Macklin a smile and introduced him to Jack and Quinn as well.

“Hi!” Macklin smiled back he was smiling as he watched Gemma interact with Luke knowing how Gemma looks up to Luke and it’s always sweet to see. He sent a quick smile to Quinn and Jack as well.

“Hey Mo.” Luke greeted his friend with a handshake.

“Hey Lukey.” Adam smiled at his friend as his eyes were incredibly soft seeing Gemma with Luke and he knew Gemma was gonna be in good hands with Luke and now Jack in New Jersey.

Jack stole Gemma from Luke and wrapped an arm around her shoulder and started yapping and Gemma was completely listening and nodding along happily as Jack led them away from the group.

Quinn let out a fond laugh shaking his head seeing that Jack seems to find someone who would listen to all his rambles.

Luke just shook his head fondly knowing that one Gemma met Jack that Jack would immediately love her. He couldn’t wait for the rest of the Devils to meet her soon.

Macklin and Adam shared a relieved look seeing Gemma just immediately get along with Jack and Quinn not that they at surprised but both are glad she got along with Jack especially as she is joining the same team as Jack soon and she will have more friends there when she joins.

(Less Than) Noble Intentions: Chapter 13 - Invidia (Part 1)

Fandom: TRR

Pairing: Drake Walker x F!OC (Harper Gale)

Series Summary: The social season may be over, but Harper Gale's problems are just beginning. With everyone at court a potential suspect, can she and Drake survive the engagement tour and get to the bottom of the plot against her and clear her name? An AU take of TRR2 featuring my OTP - Harper & Drake.

Masterlist: (Less Than) Noble Intentions

Chapter Summary: Back at Applewood, things between Harper and Drake get heated... and not just because of the sweltering summer heat.

Word Count: 4,200

Rating/Warnings: M (swearing, angst, aggravation)

Chapter theme song:

A/N1: So... This chapter kinda ran away from me 😅 So much so that I’ve decided to split it into two posts, partially because I know I’ve been working on this chapter for a while and many of you have messaged me asking for an ETA, and partially to make people’s Tumblr’s reading experience easier (much easier to read a ~4k word post than a +10k post… which is how long the entire chapter will end up being lol). Part 2 available here.

A/N2: Most of you will know that many of my chapters feature so-called ‘chapter theme songs’ that either helped inspire the contents of a particular chapter, or I feel do a particularly good job of capturing the mood. This is the case for this chapter as well, and I would actually encourage all of you (especially if you had some choice thought/words to say about Drake’s behaviour in the preceding chapter) to listen to the song accompanying this chapter, as it will give you a surprisingly astute insight into Drake’s frame of mind (never thought I’d say this about a Nick Jonas song, but here we are 😅).

A/N3: Translation of French terms/phrases at the end. Also, I’ve provided to links in the chapter itself to help you guys visualise what I had in my head re clothes and other details - the pic of Drake is as close as I could get, but it should give you a taste 😋

A/N4: Invidia is a Latin term and it means ‘envy’.

Chapter 13 - Invidia (Part 1)

"I thought this was supposed to be an apple pick," I grumble, reaching up to grab a luscious Cordonian Ruby from its branch. "Not a picnic."

A slew of camera shutters click eagerly from the sidelines.

I swallow a groan as I drop the fruit into the wicker basket at my feet.

As if the paps hadn't taken enough photos of me already today... and it wasn't even lunchtime yet.

"No one said it couldn't be both!" declares Maxwell, expertly rolling an apple down an outstretched arm and over the nape of his neck to pop it into the air with the flick of a shoulder.

The clicking intensifies manically.

"True," I concede, filching Maxwell's impromptu juggling ball out of the air and aiming it into the basket. "Except we're the only ones actually picking apples."

When Bertrand had told me that we'll be spending the day out in the Applewood orchards, participating in the annual Cordonian Ruby harvest, I imagined that we'll be doing some serious agrarian labour — climbing trees, sorting apples, and crating.

But — as always — the aristos seemed to just like making a show of it all, without wanting to actually break a sweat... or a manicured nail.

So, instead of joining the seasonal labourers and the kids from the local area who were busy with the real work, the court had set up a private camp in a secluded corner of the orchard — complete with fancy hors d'oeuvres and mint julep — from which they could pretend to be contributing to the collective effort while the paps snapped stylish pics of them from the press corner.

The whole self-aggrandising sham made me want to laugh.

And I would've... had I not been so ticked off by it all.

I toss another apple forcefully into the basket.

Especially since I too was stuck in this pointless PR stunt, instead of with Drake, trying to mend the rift that Christian's unexpected reveal had opened up between us.

"The press seem to love it, though," observes Hana, strolling past in a pretty pink spaghetti-strap sundress, a basket of apples in hand.

"And we must please the press," I mutter with a sarcastic roll of my eyes.

I'd already spent the whole of this morning posing for photos in Valtoria's gardens, fielding a million and one questions on topics ranging from how I felt about becoming a duchess (ambiguous), how I planned to decorate the chateau (with furniture), through to my secret morning beauty hacks (concealer can fix anything).

And, since the whole intrusive affair had taken much longer than planned — because for whatever reason, the paps were fascinated by anything that came out of my mouth, and Jonathan had kept encouraging them on the basis that it was 'good for my image' — we'd had to rush back to Applewood for the apple pick, I hadn't had the chance to get changed.

Which meant that I am still dressed in the same embroidered red dress that I wore for the photoshoot, my hair remains piled into an elaborate braided up-do on top of my head, and I still have an entire drug-mart's worth of make-up smeared onto my face.

And because it’s hot, the long, tight sleeves of my designer dress are causing me to sweat like a pig, the tightly pinned hairstyle is starting to make my skull hurt, and my face is itching like crazy.

In short, I am uncomfortable as hell.

But I can’t go back to the manor to swap clothes because Bertrand is watching me like a hawk, making sure that I don’t 'slink off' as he called it, and 'get into trouble' again.

I chuck another apple into my basket irately. "How much longer do we have to posture here for?"

"Usually until late afternoon," admits Maxwell.

My eyes widen. "You're joking! I'll have melted into this stupid dress by then!"

"If you're hot, you can always go under the marquee to grab a drink and cool off," Maxwell suggests, now expertly juggling five apples, much to the delight of the press.

"And fight my way through a sea of judgemental looks and snide remarks?" I snort. "No thanks. I had my fill of that at Madeleine's ball. I won't be willingly putting myself through that again."

"I can understand that," he concedes, landing an apple on his chest, where it totters unsteadily for a second before falling to the ground. "Bugger! I thought I had it!"

"Close, but no cigar," I tell him wryly.

He quickly catches the remaining airborne apples and cradles them against his sternum so he can pick up the wayward specimen. Looking back up at me, he adds, "If you'd prefer, I can get you something while you stay out here."

"You'll get the same treatment if you go in there," I remind him.

Despite the fact that all the evidence now pointed to Maxwell being the one behind the bachelor party photo sell-out, I've come to the somewhat optimistic conclusion that that since he hasn’t tried anything similar since I've arrived in Cordonia, combined with the fact that he's pretty much consistently had my back over the past few months indicated that Drake had probably been right in his assessment that the whole thing had been a one-off act of financial desperation.

At least, that's what I sincerely hope... My list of allies is already worryingly short, and I don’t want to indict Maxwell until I have clear-cut proof in my hands.

He shrugs unconcernedly. "As Taylor Swift says, the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate. But you just gotta shake, shake, shake, shake, shake. Shake it off... Shake it off! Whoo-hoo-ooh!"

Despite my foul mood, I can't help but crack up as Maxwell throws his head back to emphatically vocalise the end of the catchy stanza. "I wish I had your positivity..."

"Don't worry, young Padawan," he winks. "I have plenty for the both of us."

"Well, we're definitely gonna need it!" I harrumph. "But, if you really are willing to go in there, I'd love a drink."

"Are you going to the marquee?" asks Hana, having just returned from depositing her basket of apples in the unofficial collecting area that Maxwell and I had set up. "I was just heading there myself."

"I can walk you over," offers Maxwell. "That is... if you'd like me to..."

Hana flashes him a blush-filled smile. "I'd love that. Harper? Would you like to join us?"

"I'm good," I respond. Based on the way Hana and Maxwell are sneaking coy glances at each other, they could do with some alone time together, without me playing awkward third-wheel. "You kids have fun."

"Alright," concedes Hana. "See you in a bit!"

But as I wave them off, I sense a presence behind me.

Turning cautiously around, I feel my stomach tighten involuntary when I realise who it is.

"Err... Christian...!" I exclaim. "What are you doing here? I thought you'd be with Madeleine..."

"I took the chance to escape while she was otherwise occupied," he murmurs, taking my hand in his to brush a kiss against my knuckles, eyes not leaving mine. "You look sensational, as always, Harper."

"Thanks," I reply sheepishly. "But you should give your regards to Jonathan. This get-up was his idea."

"The man does have an unrivalled sense of taste," affirms Christian, his gaze travelling over me appreciatively. "He is a firm believer in the adage that style is a way to say who you are without having to speak. So, the best way to make people think that you are a duchess, is to dress you like one. And, as always, he did a marvellous job."

"That's why you pay him the big bucks," I quip before my brain has a chance to slam a filter on my mouth. "Err... What I meant was—"

Christian laughs. "You know I value your forthrightness, Harper. And you are right. If you want the best, you need to be willing to pay for it — be it with money, time, or favours. But a smart investment is worth its weight in gold."

"Is that why you’re giving me the duchy?" I ask pointedly. "Because you're investing in me?"

"In a manner of speaking," he admits. "I saw an opportunity to fulfill multiple needs with one, simple deed, and I couldn't afford to pass it up. Especially since the arrangement is beneficial for both of us."

"Why?" I query. "What's in it for you?"

"At the moment? Nothing." He spreads his hands categorically. "I am simply trying to help a friend."

"But down the line...?" I press meaningfully, knowing that a gift of this size would never come without some serious strings attached.

"Down the line, I hope you'll settle at Valtoria permanently."

My eyes widen. "Permanently? But I thought—"

Christian chuckles. "You truly believed that Valtoria is simply a temporary set-up while we work to uncover the plot against you?"

"Yeah..." I admit. "I mean, you said you were doing it to complement my status as the Royal Consort. But once my name is cleared..." I bite my bottom lip, leaving the end of the thought hanging.

"...the charade is no longer necessary," finish Christian, catching my meaning. "That is correct. However, I hope that once the scandal has been put to bed, you will stay in Cordonia and use your newfound position for the benefit of the kingdom. As I said before, I firmly believe you would be an asset to this country. Because of your unique situation, you would be able to bridge the class divide between the general public and the nobility – bringing important matters to the attention of the Council that have previously been overlooked, or deemed inconsequential by those who have known nothing but privilege. And, at the same time, you could breathe new life into our oftentimes archaic processes and institutions, galvanising transformation from within. You would be a true envoy of change... of progress. More than I could ever be. And the gift of a duchy is a small price to pay for such immeasurable benefits."

"And I am grateful... Truly," I say, twirling the horseshoe charm around my wrist. "For helping me... For always seeing the best in me. And I don't mean to look a gift horse in the mouth, but being a duchess... Managing an estate... That's a huge responsibility! I wouldn't even know where to start! And I'm still not sure if I—"

"I appreciate that I sprung the whole thing upon you rather abruptly," he interjects, taking my hand. "But given that we talked about this arrangement previously, surely it cannot have been that much of a surprise?"

"I know... I just..." I shake my head reticently, trying to find the right words.

I knew I should be more enthusiastic about the whole prospect. But I just couldn't seem to shake the echo of the door slamming in Drake's wake as he stormed out of the observatory.

"Harper," he says softly, stroking his thumb over the back of my hand. "I know you have qualms and often doubt your own abilities. But you already are a duchess — in everything but name. After all, you represented House Beaumont during the social season as if you were a born-and-bred member of the family. All I am proposing is making your status official. Which we should ideally do sooner, rather than later, given that we will be starting the international leg of the tour in a few days. And having the paperwork squared away before our departure would grant significant boon for your image."

"Oh. Okay…” The knot in my stomach tightens. "What do we—?"

I trail off as I catch sight of a familiar flash of blue over Christian's shoulder.

Drake.

He's marching towards the mound of apple-laden baskets that Maxwell and I have amassed with Hana's help, blue plaid shirt hanging open in the face of the mid-morning heat, and a Kimes Ranch baseball cap wedged low over his forehead.

I take an involuntarily step towards him, raising my hand to try and grab his attention without being too overt about it, given where we were.

But if he's spotted me in turn, he makes no move to advertise it. Instead, he focuses on piling as many apples as he can into the two metal buckets that he brought with him.

I glance up at Christian apologetically. "I'm sorry... I need to..."

"Of course," he nods dutifully, stepping back.

There is something in his expression that I can't quite place, but I don't have time to think on it because Drake is already double-timing it back the way he'd come, and I have to catch him before he disappears on me again.

Grabbing the half-full basket at my feet, I hurry after him as fast as my stiletto-clad feet allow me to on the uneven, grassy ground. Even though I am desperate to unpack what happened this morning in Valtoria, I know I can’t just chase after Drake like a damsel in distress, in the middle of a royal event with an army of reporters hanging around, so I need some sort of plausible deniability for following after him.

But as I emerge from the final row of trees, I see a sight that nearly sends my basket of apples tumbling to the ground.

Kiara — dressed in a lacy black romper with a plunging neckline and a high-low, see-through skirt — was sitting on the tailgate of a vintage-looking Renault pick-up, body strategically angled so that there is no way that Drake could overlook her push-up bra-enhanced cleavage that is all but being thrust into his face.

What the hell...?

I try to come up with some kind of explanation for what I am seeing that is anything other than what it looks like.

But I can't.

It’s right there in front of me, in plain black and white.

She is saying something to him, a playful smile on her face. I'm too far away for me to make out the words, but as she filches an apple from his hand to lift it to coquettishly her mouth, her aim is clear... She is blatantly making a move on him. And if there is any room for doubt left about her intentions, they are quickly dispelled by the low moan that floats out of her mouth as she bites suggestively into the shiny red flesh of the apple, her eyes fluttering shut in over-exaggerated delectation.

I can't see Drake's face — given that his back is to me — but I can see that he's no longer focused on unpacking the remainder of his bucket. Instead, his head is turned towards Kiara as she offers him a taste of the fruit in her hand.

I feel my hand tighten on the basket handle.

I have no idea what is going on, but whatever it is, it’s going to end...

Now.

Kiara may not know that Drake and I are together — given the stupid, platonic charade that we have to maintain while we worked to clear my name —but I expect more from Drake. Especially since this is the second time that I've caught him alone with Kiara in a situation that was more than questionable, and he didn’t made any move to shake her off until after I interrupted them.

Which begs the question... Had I been too quick to believe him when he'd told me at the Coronation Ball that she was not his type, and there was nothing for me to worry about?

There is only one way to find out.

Squaring my shoulders, I march up to the back of the truck, slamming the basket forcefully down on the tailgate. "Looks like you forgot something, Walker."

Kiara drops the apple with a startled gasp. "Oh, mon dieu!"

I ignore her, my eyes fixed accusingly on Drake.

He barely even looks at me as he scoffs, "You're the one to talk, Gale."

I was perversely hoping for some kind of guilty reaction from Drake as well. But the fact that he's not only non-pulsed by my appearance, but apparently irritated by it, only serves to drive my pulse higher.

"What the hell is that supposed to mean?" I demand.

"You know exactly what it means," he growls, before turning on his heel to tromp back into the orchard without a backwards glance.

I stare after him, flabbergasted.

I catch him in a comprising situation with another woman, and he is pissed off at me? In what world does that—?

"Était-ce vraiment nécessaire?" demands Kiara huffily, hopping off the tailgate. "I don't know what your issue is with Drake, but you could've at least waited until we'd finished talking, instead of interrupting si grossièrement..."

"Sorry," I mutter sarcastically. "It really couldn't wait..."

She harumphs under her breath. "You Américains are always so impatient... While in Europe, you'd do well to remember to wait your turn."

Flicking her hair behind her shoulders dismissively, she saunters after Drake.

I briefly contemplate picking up the apple she'd dropped and flinging it at her. But I've always sucked at softball, and the last thing I need is for her to run crying foul to Madeleine on the off chance that I do manage to nail her in the back of the head. Because my life at court is difficult enough already without Miss Wannabe Queen Bee going out of her way to make it an absolute hell in retaliation for me picking on one of her hench-maidens.

So, I settle for simply kicking the half-eaten Ruby across the grass in frustration.

"Ne vous inquiète pas, Demoiselle," consoles Schweitzer, stepping out from the shadow of the trees once Kiara was out of earshot. "His passions sometimes get the better of him."

A derisive snort escapes me. "Yeah. Tell me about it."

My bodyguards had shown up — as if by magic — after Drake's abrupt departure from Valtoria this morning, and have been at my side ever since. And while I would've normally been annoyed at the fact that third parties had witnessed my less than amiable interaction with my boyfriend just now, it is heartening to know that someone else has drawn the same conclusions as me.

Schweitzer's mouth twitches. "I mean his passion for you."

My eyes widen. "For me? But he—"

"You are the only one who arouses such a formidable strength of feeling inside of him," confirms Allard, also making an appearance. "And he's been especially unquiet today."

"I know..." I sigh dejectedly, the fight going out of me at the reminder of what happened this morning. "But I don't know why. Every time I try to talk to him, he storms off."

"Then prevent him from doing so," shrugs Allard.

"You say that like it's easy..." I accuse.

But, having dispensed their impromptu wisdom for the day, the two Guard have already melted back into the shade, like a pair of cryptic Jedi Masters returning to the Force, and I get no further response.

I blow a frustrated raspberry as I assess my options.

The sooner I talk to Drake, the better. I hate having all this unspoken tension between us. Especially since I have no idea what I did wrong. I mean, I was just as surprised by Christian's unexpected gift as Drake, so it can't be that...

But I know that I can’t just confront him in the middle of a royal event with a platoon of reporters milling around, on the lookout for even the slightest whiff of a story.

I have to get him alone. Ideally somewhere private.

But where?

My eyes land on the pickup and I give myself a mental smack on the forehead.

Duh.

Walking around to the cab, I open the passenger-side door and climb in.

Drake is obviously taking the picked apples somewhere — a packing centre, a barn, a warehouse. I can hitch a ride with him, on the pretext of helping him unload the crates when we get to wherever he is going. And — most importantly — we can talk on the way. Without him being able to shrug me off.

I close the door back around and settle into the well-worn seat to wait.

Before long, I catch sight of him in the driver's side wing mirror as he emerges from between the trees — alone — with another load of apples.

If he's surprised by my disappearance, I can't see it on his face. Instead, he concentrates on making his way to the tailgate, and I lose sight of him as he rounds the side of the truck. But I can hear the sounds of his undertakings as he proceeds to stow the apples away, as well as the rattle and creak of the slightly rusty springs when he climbs into the bed to rearrange the crates.

I tap my fingers against my thigh, waiting — both nervously and impatiently — for him to finish, so we can get going, literally and metaphorically. Because while I am anxious to clear the air with Drake, I am also fully aware that even though I may have managed to give Bertrand the slip earlier, it’s only a matter of time before he comes looking for me. And I want to be well away before he does.

Finally, I hear the tailgate clang shut.

My pulse thuds in my throat as I wait for Drake to appear on the other side of the cab...

"The hell you think you're doing, Gale?"

"Argh!"

The unexpected sound of Drake yanking the passenger door open behind me causes me to slam myself head-first into the low-slung roof panel with a bang.

"Ow..." I grumble, rubbing the top of my skull painfully. "Why do you insist on doing that?"

"You're the one who keeps letting your guard down," he counters in a deadpan manner. After a beat, he asks, "You okay?"

"I'll live," I assure him wryly, checking my fingertips to make sure that the thousand and one bobby pins that had been wedged into my hair haven’t ended up stabbing through into my skin as a result of the forceful collision.

"Great," he declares, pulling the door wider. "Now get out."

I meet his gaze impassively. "No."

The muscle in his jaw clenches. "I'm not asking again, Gale."

"I didn't hear you ask the first time, Walker," I riposte, leaning back against the worn leather with crossed arms.

He cusses under his breath. "D'you want to get caught?"

"No," I tell him flatly. "So, you'd better start driving."

"Bordel de merde..." he grits, slamming the door shut.

I watch him stomp around the front of the truck with a murderous expression...

...which makes me all the more determined to find out what the hell has gotten him so worked up.

He wrenches the driver's side door open and climbs into the cab, teeth gritted and eyes fixed ahead. Grabbing the bottom of the open window panel, he bangs it shut again before reaching for the key in the ignition.

Giving the key a forceful twist, he holds it in place while he gives the gas pedal a couple of aggressive pumps. After a few coughs and splutters, the arthritic diesel rumbles into life. Dropping the handbrake, he throws the shifter into gear, and soon we're trundling along the dumpy orchard path.

"So? You gonna tell me?" I ask after a couple dozen yards of total silence, save for the puffing of the engine and the creak of the suspension.

"Tell you what?" he asks gruffly, eyes fixed firmly ahead, a death-grip on the steering wheel.

"Why you're fuming like an active volcano."

His eyes flick over to me briefly before focusing back out through the windshield. "We're all allowed shit days, Gale.”

"Obviously," I concede. "But I want to know what caused it and why you're taking it out on me."

"I'm not taking it out in you."

"Yes. You are. And I don't—"

He scoffs. "Trust me. If I were taking it out on you, you'd know it."

"Oh, so you giving me the silent treatment since we got back from Valtoria isn't taking it out on me?" I demand archly.

His continues to torch a hole through the glass in front of him.

"How about you storming out on me without explanation — not once, but three times so far today? Is that not taking it out on me either?"

His grip on the wheel tightens.

"And what about whatever the hell that was with Kiara just now, huh? Was that also not—?"

He suddenly slams the breaks on, and I nearly face-plant into the glove box as the truck lurches to a stop.

"Hey! What the fuck, Wa—?"

But he's already thrown the cab door closed behind him with such vehemence that it rattles the whole truck.

Straightening myself back up, I see that we've arrived at our destination, which is an old stone barn with heavy wooden doors and an open gable roof.

I hear Drake drop the tailgate with a clang. Opening the passenger door, I hop out of the cab and quickly make my way around to the back...

...but by the time I get there, he's already tramped into the barn.

Gritting my teeth, I pick a crate out of the bed as well, and follow him inside.

We’re going to finish this conversation, whether he likes it or not.

The story continues in Chapter 13 - Part 2.

A/N: Here is a list of translations for the French terms/expressions:

Kiara

Oh, mon dieu! = Oh, my God!

Était-ce vraiment nécessaire? = Was that really necessary?

Si grossièrement = so rudely

Schweitzer

Ne vous inquiète pas, Demoiselle = Do not trouble yourself, m’lady

Drake

Bordel de merde = lit. ‘brothel of shit’ (I know - I love French swearing 🤣) English equivalent is ‘for fuck’s sake’

What are your writing weaknesses? I struggle with conveying different emotions and I want to get better at stretching the scene with more desciptions. I want the experience to be immersive but it makes my brain hurt lol.

What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic? If you know the language for it! I am only fluent in english so that's what I read and write.

What was the first fandom you wrote for? The first fandom was Star Wars, specifically prequel era with Anakin and Padme.

What’s your favorite fic that you’ve written? I know it says written as in past tense, but I am loving exploring Lost in the Concrete Jungle. My fav Bad Omens one shot though is Impolite. I did a lot of research on Service submission before starting and the fact that it has evolved into a poly situationship is really cool.

So as mentioned in my previous post about this bingo, my birthday is next month. And for that occasion I wanted to host another bingo! Like my last bingo in October 2021, this one will have moodboards to the squares. You don’t have to use them, but they’re there for inspiration, and can also be used in your fics as a “cover” if you’d like 🥰 I’m gonna have the moodboards up before the bingo starts on Monday 17th of January 😅

here are some rules:

1. It’ll start on January 17th and ends on February 17th at Midnight (Norwegian time)

2. Write one, ten or all of the fics. But don’t feel like you have to write them, this is a fun little writing exercise

3. You can write a head canon, ficlet, multi-chapter (one moodboard/square per fic) or a one shot. But please, if it’s longer than 500 words, put it under read more.

4. The fics can be fluff, smut, angst, etc if you feel like they would fit with the aesthetic of the moodboard you write for. Please remember to tag the fics with the right warnings before posting it.

5. Tag me when you post it, so I can keep tracks of the fics that are posted for this challenge and use the hashtag: #adarafaelbarbabirthdaybingo

[roleplayermeet]

Hello everyone! Me again, I’m a 22 year old female writer seeking people to write with. Please be 18+ to dm. Just hunting for some new long term clean stories with plenty of muse and excitement! So about me: I’ve been writing for nearly twelve years I’m advanced lit plus and I tend to expect the same from my partners as I love a challenge. I do oc x canon pairings with me as the oc and the female . I do fandom roleplays only with plenty of story and plot in third person and past tense only.

Here are some requirements if you dm:

Please use good and proper grammar text slang in roleplays and some times, out of really frustrates me.

Doubles are welcome but I expect full equality for both ocs, at the moment I’m doing a lot of doubles so I’d appreciate some singles focusing on my oc as well.

I’m looking for those of you who can play canon males. This is for romantic oc x canon pairings.

Please be advanced lit this means three plus paragraphs and lots of detail.

I also use third and past I expect all potential partners to do the same.

Please also love plotting, I adore plotting and it’s one of my favourite parts of the roleplay process.

Fandoms and movies etc (in order of preference!)!:

Modern family ❤️❤️.

Little Women ❤️.

Game of Thrones.

Teen Wolf.

Ugly Betty.

Bates Motel (tv show).

Gossip Girl.

Glee.

The Originals.

The Vampire Diaries.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Harry Potter (book verse only please!).

Divergent.

Hunger Games.

Maze Runner.

Skins (U.K.)

Teen Beach Movie.

Gilmore Girls.

Camp Rock.

Celebs:

Niall Horan.

Nick Jonas.

Joe Jonas.

Shawn Mendes.

Richard Madden.

Dylan O’Brien.

That’s everything in my list! I’m a super friendly writer so don’t be shy! Right now I’m seriously craving Modern Family, Gossip Girl, Ugly Betty, TVDU, Twilight and Teen Wolf
