OSAMU AND IWAIZUMI WHEN IT’S THEIR S/O’S BIRTHDAY

-

OSAMU

he will cook you a special birthday breakfast in bed 

it’s been a tradition for years and he’s nOT about to break it 

so when you first wake up, you can smell the aroma of perfectly cooked food drifting from the kitchen

you sigh and rest your head back into your pillows letting yourself rest for a few more minutes

5 minutes later and you hear the sound of a tray being put down beside you 

osamu is looking down at your resting form with a soft and adoring smile on his face 

he’ll lean down and press soft kisses all over your face

“mmm mornin’ baby, made ya breakfast”

you’ll give him a sleepy smile and his heart is melting 

he’s made you pancakes, bacon, syrup and scrambled eggs (feel free to change the breakfast idk if y’all have allergies or other preferences)

then he’ll also pull out a bunch of your favourite flowers 

osamu is a top tier boyfie, he went out to buy those flowers FRESHLY PICKED 😼 first thing in the morning

so, he’ll place the tray on your lap

put the flowers in a nearby vase with fresh water

give you a quick kiss on the forehead 

and climb into his side of the bed as he moves your hair out of your face so you can start eating

as you’re eating, osamu is playing with the ends of your hair and drawing little circles to the side of your body

every so often when you hum in approval of his food, you’ll feed him little bits to which he happily obliges to 

after you finish your breakfast, he’ll take the tray from you and place it on a dressing table

listen i know osamu and y/n keep their house immaculate 

so everywhere is tidy so obv he has room to put down the tray any dresser in your room

so then he crawls back into bed with you and the two of you are sharing soft kisses and just cuddling together 

then osamu pulls away from you and leans to grab something at the side of his bed 

he’s got a serious look in his eye as you raise an eyebrow at him

“y/n, you know you’re the most important person in my life, i wouldn't be where i am today without you by my side an’ i’m grateful for everythin’ you’ve done for me. you’re the most gorgeous and genuine person i’ve ever met and the one i want to wake up to every mornin’ for the rest of my life.”

he’s tearing up slightly and so are you

“osamu -what are you trying to say?”

he takes a deep breath and pulls out a small velvet box from the other side of his bed

he’s opened it and inside is the prettiest engagement ring you’ve ever seen

it’s very stylish, not over exaggerated but it’s beautiful and you love it

“y/n l/n, i love you more than anything and want nothin’ more than to have more of these moments with you by my side, will you marry me?”

you’re sobbing

he’s lowkey sobbing 

“of course!!”

he shakily puts the ring on your finger and lets out a sigh of relief when he sees it fits perfectly 

“i love you osamu”

“i love you too, y/n miya-to-be”

he’s got you pulled up close into his chest as he rakes his hands through your hair pressing delicate kisses to the top of your head

“come on, I've got a lot planned for ya today”

osamu is one of the best boyfies fiancés for birthdays 

he treats you like royalty because you are one of the most important people in his life and he wants to make sure you know

IWAIZUMI

iwaizumi is harassed suggested by oikawa to do something being for your birthday

“iwa-chan it’s the love of your lifes birthday!! 😠 do something big!!”

“shut up shittykawa! 🙄”

iwa doesn't want to go all out for your birthday at all

he’s a very lowkey sort of person he doesn't like to be extravagant and he knows neither do you

but oikawa is RELENTLESS

so he gives in and agrees to throw you a small surprise party

so everything is going as planned

iwa has taken you out for the day to go eat and little cafés and walk around the pretty streets of miyagi

oikawa and co, are setting everything up at iwa’s house

he texts iwa that preparations are done and you can come back now 

so he suggest the two of you make your way home and your both gently swaying your arms back and fourth as you grip his hand 

iwa insists you open the door first 

you’re like ???? okay???

 not very gentlemanly of you iwa 😤🤚🏽

anyway

you open it and it’s all dark until you walk in through the hall and jump back

“🥳✨SURPRISE!!!!✨🥳”

your close family and friends are there, iwa’s direct family and the volleyball third years are there too

“you did this?” you turn to iwa with a small smirk

“well actually i-”

“YES Y/N-CHAN!! IWA-CHAN DID EVERYTHING ISN’T HE LIKE THE BEST BOYFRIEND??!! :D”

you and your boyfriend are staring at oikawa dumbfounded until you let out a laugh

“yes oikawa, the best boyfriend”

so you guys are celebrating your birthday enjoying the party, chatting to family and friends etc

mattsun and makki have brought karaoke 

only so they can show off their routine 

everyone’s having fun laughing and dancing together 

oikawa actually gets a thank you from iwa lmao

“i’m just so generous and kind hearted no need to thank me iwa-chan i know im great”

“shut uP or i’ll take it back 👺”

so eventually it gets late and everyone begins to gradually leave 

you say goodbye to everyone and thank them for coming 

iwa’s parents retreat up to their room saying that they’re tired but you’re welcome to stay as long as you want 

so you and iwa are sat at his dining table, confetti, streamers and balloons surrounding you

your left over birthday cake is there too

“y’know it was oikawa’s idea, i wasn’t gonna throw you a party i was just gonna do something between us two”

“i know, this isn’t really your type of thing, but thank you :) i enjoyed myself a lot today”

iwa has this big smile across his blushing face 

“you're so cute haijime, but i’ll bet you look even cuter when i do this”

you swipe a bit of icing off your cake onto your finger and dip it onto his nose 

you’re giggling and he’s blushing even more

“oh it’s on”

the two of you spend the next 45 minutes wiping icing across each other and feeding each other bits of the left over cake 

it gets to around 2am and you’re both worn out

iwa cleans you both up and carries you up to bed with him as you agree to just clean up everywhere tomorrow morning

not that there’s even much to clean because all your guests were very respectful and didn’t make a big mess 😌

it’s not how iwa planned to spend your birthday but he is glad he gave into listening to oikawa because seeing the smile on your face made it all worth it

Through It All

Part 30

Summary: Now married, Spencer & Y/N navigate the D/s lifestyle. How will their relationship change?

Words: 1,013

Warnings: BABY TIME! That shit is hard.

A/N: Just fluffy stuffs, my friends.

Morgan Diana Reid and Blake Xing Reid enter the world at 7:37 and 7:41 AM respectively. Morgan is five and a half pounds exactly and 18 inches long. Blake is 18 inches and clocks in at just over five pounds. They’re beautiful. Perfect. They have Ai’s full head of hair and Kyle’s nose and mouth.  

Ai is a champion. She had them both naturally (though you still contend there’s nothing natural about a bowling ball popping out of a vagina). Shortly after they were born, she passed out from exhaustion and slept for nearly 13 hours, which meant you and Spencer were thrown into the fire right from the frying pan. Honestly, it all goes by too fast to truly enjoy, but you know you’ll remember those little moments, just watching as Morgan opens her eyes or Blake moves his fingers.

Before you leave the hospital with them after about five days, you allow Ai time alone with them. It breaks your heart to hear her sobbing on the other side of the door.  “Mommy and Daddy couldn’t give you the life you deserve right now, but we’ll always love you.” When you hear that you stifle a choked sob into Spencer’s chest and subsequently promise Ai and Kyle that they’ll always have a place in your family.

And then the insanity begins.

You thought it was hard with Charlotte.

Now there’s two.

TWO.

And Charlotte.

Sleep is non-existent. Maybe an hour at a time at the most. You cry about as often as Morgan and Blake do, which is a whole hell of a lot. Even Spencer breaks every now and then. But they grow so fast. Almost too fast if you’re being honest. Their cheeks get chubbier. They move more. Limbs flying as fast as a cheetah despite being about 30 times as helpless.

Sex? Even more non-existent than sleep.

It’s harder because everything is doubled, but you also have more of an inkling when things go wrong, when they’re sick, when things need to be done. Instead of wondering what each kind of sound means, you know, and you can react accordingly, so you don’t feel as much of a fish out of water as you did last time.

Right now, your fun entails sitting still on the couch with one of the babies on your chest while Spencer sits beside you with the other. Charlotte is taking one of her now rare naps at Spencer’s side. Both of you have to pee but Charlotte, Morgan and Blake are all content and it feels like you’re playing with fire if you dare to move.

Charlotte is the most amazing big sister. She insists they be included in reading time, so when their crying allows, you bring them into Charlotte’s room for storytime at night. She’s even tried to help you change a diaper but ran away when she realized it was stinky. And man are they stinky. Newborn poop is something else. Otherworldly.

During the first three weeks, you shower about five times in total. Your legs are hair as hell. Shaving takes too much time. And even though your weight is pretty stable, you still feel gross. Hygiene takes time and you don’t have it until about a month after they come home.

You’ve managed to get them on a similar schedule so they wake up and go to sleep within a few minutes of each other. Thank the gods Spencer did some research on how to sync up their schedules before they were born otherwise you’d be fucked.

Once they’re down for the night and Charlotte’s been read to (she’s very obsessed with the one about the two princesses that fall in love right now), you sink into bed beside the man you love. “I think we’ve got about two hours before they wake up again,” you say, mouth stretching out into a yawn. “Talk to me before we fall asleep. I feel like we haven’t spoken in 10 years.”

Chuckling, Spencer rubs his hand up and down your arm. “We haven’t even known each other ten years.”

“Feels like forever.”

“Yea, it does,” He sighs happily. “What do you want to talk about?”

“Anything. Just talk to me. Give me stats.”

He pulls you into his lap and combs his hand through your hair. “Luckily, that’s my specialty. Okay, so listen to this-” Even through he can barely keep his eyes open you can hear the excitement in his voice. “Women with a higher body mass index are more likely to conceive twins. Obviously Ai is one of the exceptions. Anyway, higher body fat levels mean higher levels of estrogen which can cause the ovaries to release more than one egg at a time.

“Is that why it’s so hard for women to lose weight too?” You ask, annoyance tinging your sleep-deprived voice. “Like our bodies are holding on to fat because baby making?”

“Exactly. It’s bullshit, I know.”

He continues on, saying something about twins creating their own language, which you hope happens because that would be fascinating to watch. And then he talks about how twins can actually have different fathers, though it’s rare. You want to keep listening, but you drift off to sleep in his arms, only for you both to be rudely awakened by your screeching twins two hours later.

---

A week passes and Charlotte’s terrible twos get a little worse, but you and Spencer realize quickly that it's because she hasn’t been getting enough attention, so you actively try to remedy that.

While Spencer is taking care of the babies’ feeding, you play with Charlotte. She’s getting into playing pretend now, so she’s using two dolls to reenact her two princesses book. You’re merely an audience member, but Charlotte needs to tell the story. As the days go by, you make sure one of you is taking care of the babies while the other handles Charlotte. Again, it feels like you and Spencer don’t speak for ages.

But you got through it once before, right?

It’ll just take time.

a christmas to remember pt 3

if anyone’s seen judging amy im basing carolyns character off of maxine gray (both played by tyne daly) sorry this chapter is chopping and weird

“Link.” Amelia whispered shaking her boyfriend lightly. “It’s time to wake up.”

“Hmm. Five more minutes.” He begged.

“Okay, five more minutes.” Amelia got up from the bed and walked into her childhood room where they had the portable crib setup. She lifted up the baby who was wide awake babbling to himself. She dressed him in a couple of layers to assure he’d be warm when they went out, and then did the same for herself.

“I’m up.” Link groggily said once his girlfriend walked back into the room with their baby.

“You better be, we’ve got to get to the train station soon.”

“What? Why?” Link was unaware of the plans Amelia had made for them.

“We’re going to the city.”

“Oh, okay.” Link responded pleasantly surprised. He stumbled out of bed and went to his suitcase to find warm clothes.

“Christmas in New York is beautiful. I can’t wait to show you around. When we were kids my parents would always take us during this time.” Amelia said as she strapped their baby across her chest.

“Probably can’t be as beautiful as you though.”

“Oh shut it.” Amelia chuckled, as she exited the room heading downstairs. She walked into the kitchen to find her mother having a cup of tea and watching the morning news. “Hey ma.”

“Good morning Amy. Are you three going into the city?”

“Yeah, Links never been during Christmastime so I thought I’d show him.”

“Should be fun. Do you remember that bakery we would take you kids to when you were little?” Amelia nodded in response. “Great can you pick up some cookies so we can take it to Berties on Christmas Eve?”

“Yeah we can do that. Anything else?”

“That should do it.”

“Sorry that took so long.” Link apologized as he stepped into the kitchen. “Good morning Mrs She- Carolyn.”

“Good morning Link.” Carolyn smirked.

“It’s all good we can still make it to the train station. Bye ma see you tonight.”

“Have a good time.”

________________________________________

“So what’s the plan?” Link asked as he held onto the top bar on the train and had another arm around his girlfriend to steady her.

“No plan, really. Just kind of walking around we can go to the botanical gardens maybe?” Her boyfriend laughed to this.

“I don’t know why I expected a plan.”

“Me either you should’ve caught on by now.”

“I do have one request though.”

“And that would be?”

“We get pizza and donuts.”

“I think we can arrange that.” Amelia promised as the two exited the train as the doors opened.

“Do you have any idea where we’re going?” Link asked holding onto the straps that held their son across her chest.

“Yes Link I know where I’m going. May I ask why your holding onto the harness?”

“I don’t want to lose you guys”

“Sometimes I forget you not used to this. You grew up in tornado alley, the middle of nowhere.”

“Hey, there were people around where I grew up.” Link defended as the two stepped out of the station and were onto the cities sidewalk. “Where are we off to?”

“Ever been to the Empire State Building?”

“Cant say that I have.”

_______________________________________

“Wow you can see everything from up here.” Link said with his hands on his hips.

“Oh my god your such a dad.” Amelia laughed watching her boyfriends stance.

“What did I do?”

“Nothing.” Amelia smiled, not believing it was possible to fall even more in love with the man she had tied her life to.

“Here let me get a picture.”

“Is that really necessary?” Amelia whined.

“It is, it is.” Link laughed wrapping his arm around his girlfriend and turned them around so they got view of part of the city behind them in a selfie. “Now would it be possible for us to go find some pizza?”

“I think we can arrange that.” Amelia looped her arm around her boyfriends, and the two walked back into the building from the terrace.

“Is Scout doing okay?” The boys father asked as they stepped into the elevator.

“Yeah, he’s going to be hungry soon though.” Amelia lifted up the blanket they had draped around their son to look at his sleeping face.

“Alrighty then.” Link said while leaning against the wall. The elevator dinged allowing the pair to exit leaving them on the ground floor. “Sooooo pizza time?”

“I already said yes, Link.” Amelia laughed at her boyfriends eagerness.

“Sorry it’s just New York pizza is so much better than the pizza at home.” Amelia smiled to herself hearing Link refer to Seattle as their home.

“That is correct, Seattle may have better coffee but they really need to step up their pizza game.”

“Right?!” Link agreed excitedly, he could go on and on about food. “I mean I guess in the long run coffee is more beneficial because we practically live off of it. But come on pizza is a staple item.”

“I agree if we live anywhere, the coffees gotta be good. I can do without the pizza.”

“Well I wouldn’t go as far as saying to go without pizza. You know if I was stranded on a deserted island and could only have one food. I’d say a slice from Pallattos. What about you?” Link asked as the two walked through the frigid New York air.

“Hmm, I’d go with one of your burgers.”

“My burgers aren’t even that good.”

“Yes they are Link! I’d eat them every day if I could.”

“Really?”

“Really.”

“You realize when we go back home that’s I’ll I’m gonna make.”

“I do.” Link smiled to himself, hoping one day she’d be saying that to him again. The couple walked in comfortable silence listening to the bustle of the city around them. “You know I’m surprised you said you could go without pizza. Italian foods your favorite.”

“That’s true, but pizza isn’t the only Italian food around.”

“That’s true.” Link admitted while he held the door to his favorite pizza place open. “I’m assuming you just want cheese?”

“Yes please.” Amelia smiled showing off her dimple as their son started to fuss. “I’m gonna go find a place for us to sit, and let this little guy eat.”

“One cheese and one pepperoni.” Link announced as he set the two plates on the table of the booth his girlfriend was sitting at.

“Thank you.”

“Once he’s done eating can I have some baby time?”

“I guess we can arrange that.” Amelia looked down to admire the hungry baby at her breast. “I’m impressed how well behaved he’s been.”

“You mean other than the plane ride?”

“I’m ignoring that plane ride. It never happened.”

“Oh I see. It never happened.”

“Correct never happened.” Amelia fixed her shirt and handed their baby over to her boyfriend. “Here’s your son.”

“Hey little guy.” The boys father cooed as he held him. He took a piece of pepperoni off of his pizza and offered it to his son.

“Don’t give him that.”

“Why? It won’t hurt him, it’s soft.”

“I don’t think he can have that, Link.”

“I’m sure it’s fine.”

“I’d listen to your wife.” An older gentleman directed towards Link, in the booth next the them. “I learned that the hard way.”

“That’s right you did.” The mans wife laughed at her husband. “How olds your son?”

“He’s ten months.” Amelia smiled looking at her son.

“I miss when our kids were that little. They’re all grown now.”

“How long have you two been married?” Link asked.

“42 years.” The wife answered. “Not quite sure how. I can barely stand this man.”

“Oh you love me.” The man chuckled. “What about you two?”

“Oh we’re not married.” Amelia blushed.

“Oh I’m sorry you two just act like an old married couple.” The wife giggled.

“Yeah we get that a lot.” Link smiled making eye contact with his girlfriend.

“Well, Happy Holidays.” The couple wished as they got up.

“Happy holidays.” Amelia and Link wished them the same.

“You think we’ll get there?” Link asked.

“42 years? God I hope not.” Links face drained of all color.

“Oh.”

“I hope we get to 50 years at the minimum.”

“Hmm, I was thinking more of 49 years. 50 is just too much.” Link sarcastically stated.

“Your such an ass.” Amelia laughed as she stood up to throw away their plates. “You want to carry him?”

“Sure. Can you strap him on?”

“Yeah. I’m gonna put him forwards facing since he’s awake now.” Amelia helped secure their baby onto his chest, she smiled when he turned to face her with their baby happily babbling. “Ready to go?”

“Yep. But I do ask that we get a picture out front.”

“We can do that.” His girlfriend smiled, knowing that one of his most prized possessions was the picture he got out front of this pizzeria with his favorite baseball players

________________________________________

“You want to head back to your moms? This little guys getting sleepy and I think a little cold.” Link suggested.

“Yeah, we just gotta stop at this bakery real quick. We need to pick up some cookies for Berties.”

“Bertie?” Link asked, racking his brain trying to remember one of her family members named Bertie.

“Oh, Berties not a person. It’s a place my mom worked in DCFS for awhile and when she retired she got bored so she went back into social work and started this kind of group home but with therapists and doctors to help the kids with their trauma.”

“Wow, I never realized that. That’s really sweet.”

“Yeah, year round my mother runs it and brings food over, but Christmas time is when she brings baked goods and sugary stuff the kids don’t normally get.” Link smiled to this and wrapped his arm around his girlfriend as they walked into the bakery to get the New York famous cookies.

Hell is Hot CH 6- The Coronation

Thank you all for so much love! @kanakalala458 @elizaglad @queenhumanoid @lachicademarcasrojas

Caliban and I enter from opposite entrances meeting in the middle before our thrones. This was  the first time I had seen him since we departed to get ready. He was in a gold trench coat that bared his chest and black pants. He looked so handsome the way the gold meshed with his hair.

“You look rather gorgeous, my queen.” He said grabbing my hand to help onto the throne before he sat in the one beside me. 

“As do you, my king.” I said smiling at him. This was the first time I played along in this flirtatious banter and I hate that I could get used to doing this all the time with him. It felt like a crime to be moving on so fast but i didn't think this relationship would be anything more than political.

Lucifer stood in the middle of us addressing the courts of hell who waited before us. “I present to thee my first born, Sabrina Mornigstar and her consort Caliban Prince of Hell. Sabrina Morningstar, Proud lady of Pandemonium, Maiden of Shadows and Queen of Hell. Caliban, Prince of Hell now King of hell, Ruler of Darkness and Lord of Pandemonium. Hail Sabrina! Hail Caliban!” 

“Hail Sabrina! Hail Caliban!” The court shouted in unison. 

Lilith gestured to Caliban and I to stand up. Caliban stood up and held his hand out for me. I took his hand and stood with him before the Courts of Hell officially coronated as King and Queen of Hell, husband and wife. 

“Now Sabrina and Caliban will dance, as King and Queen to the Moonlight Sonata.” Lucifer continued before stepping back next to Lilith. 

Caliban leads me to the center of the room as we begin to dance. 

“Do you think you can get used to this, Sabrina?” He says looking down desirably at me. 

Everytime he looks at me like that I feel like there's a lump in my throat. “Which part?” I said raising an eyebrow and grinning at him. 

“All of it, Hell and me.” He said seriously but masking it with a flirty smirk.

“You're not so bad to be married too I suppose but maybe we can get to know each other a little better.” I say not breaking eye contact.

“What would you like to know about me princess?” Caliban said bringing his face closer to mine. I could feel his breath against my neck. 

“I uh--uh--” I began before Lucifer came to our side. 

“Shall I cut in for a dance with my darling daughter?” Lucifer said holding his hand out for mine.

“Of course, Dark Lord.” Caliban says handing my hand over to him. 

“Ah now isn't this better? All the power your feeling? Already pulling the wool over my eyes with your little surprise marriage. Don't forget who you're dealing with just because your Queen of Hell, Sabrina.” He says earnestly. 

“I am a Morningstar aren't i? This is what you wanted, Lucifer. You wanted me to embrace all my power, so I am. Things are going to be different around here.” I said firmly.

“Don't get carried away first born, you're still new here.” The Dark Lord whispered in my ear before the song ended and the dance finished. 

The courts danced for awhile while Caliban and I sat in our thrones hand and hand watching. After the coronation Lilith showed us where our room was.

My mouth almost fell to the floor in awe. The room was giant, draped in gold and black with his and hers closets and a full bathroom. The bed looked like it was 3 of my beds all put together with gold satin sheets.

“Wow.” Was all I could breathe out. “Uh thank you Lilith.” 

“Of course, your clothes are in your closet.” She says walking away.

I was sort of nervous to spend my first night with Caliban and I had no idea how to go about it.

“Uh, well i’m gonna go shower and get ready for bed.” I said, scared to make eye contact as I walked towards the closet to grab something to wear.

He smirked devillishy at me sensing my nervousness. “As you wish my queen, do let me know if you need any company.” 

I grab a gold silk slip, black lace bralette with matching underwear and head into the bathroom.

While I'm showering I'm thinking about what could be going through Caliban’s head. Does he think were gonna have sex? Am I ready for that? I mean I'm certainly attracted to him and we are getting closer but I still barely know him. I get out of the shower, towel off and put my clothes on. When I walk out Caliban is in nothing but black boxer briefs and my cheeks feel hot. 

I get into bed and get under the covers. “I took a week off school so I could stay down here while i learn my new powers, how to run Hell and getting to know you.” I say firmly. 

“Hm is that so? You know you never answered me earlier.” He said smirking at me as he walked over to get into bed as well.

“Huh I don't recall.” I say flirtatiously, knowing exactly what he was referring to.

He left no space between us. I could feel the warmth of his body as he began to move a piece of hair out of my face. “What would my wife like to know about me?” he whispered gently but it felt so strong.

“Your character. I want to spend time with you, learning your character.” I said not moving an inch. 

“Whatever you wish to know about me is yours, beloved.” His lips crashed onto mine softly and passionately all at once. 

We began making out, it was the first time I really gave in to kissing him. The feelings I feel with him are so intense I get lost in them. 

He pulls away from the kiss looking at me lustfully. “Should we consummate our marriage my darling queen?” 

I so badly wanted to say yes but I wanted to make sure what I felt for him was more than lust even if are married. 

I lean in giving him a longing kiss before pulling away to look at him. “I like you Caliban and I do think I want this to be more than political but I also want to get to know you more before we move any further.” 

He caresses my face. “As you command, my queen.” 

We lay down and I sleep in his arms all night so peacefully. When I wake up Caliban is already dressed reading a book next to me in bed. 

“Morning my queen are you ready to learn of your duties?” He said looking down at me happily. 

“Caliban what are you doing up already?” I said sleepily as I began to wake up.    

“I don't need sleep remember, my lady?” He said flipping a page in his book.

“So you stayed in bed and cuddled me all night even though you don't sleep?” I questioned.

“After you fell asleep you looked so comfortable so I stayed, I didn't mind.” He said smiling affectionately. 

“I’m going to pop up to see my aunties before I start learning my queenly duties, it will be fast.” I said getting out of bed finally.

“Am I to come?” He says, still reading through his book.

“No it's okay, I won't be long.” I yelled from the bathroom where I was getting dressed. 

I gave him a kiss before flames encircled me teleporting me to the academy.

I walk into what used to be Blackwood’s office and find Aunt Hilda and Aunt Zelda.

“Hey auntie’s” I said excitedly.

“Sabrina! What are you doing here?” Aunt Zelda exclaims shocked as Aunt Hilda begins to coo and pull me into an embrace. 

“Ooooooh dearie how was your first night in Hell? Alright? Do you want me to send you some lemon pie and lavender tea back with you?” Aunt Hilda utters comfortably. 

“It was fine auntie, the room is actually really big and beautiful.” I exclaimed.

“I am sure it was a most eventful night full of consummation.” Aunt Zee retorted.

“Auntie! We didn't “consummate”, it was a long day so we went to bed and that's all i am going to say about that.” I replied.

“Oh Zelda you're so overt.” Aunt Hilda remarks

“Oh honestly Sabrina you're going to have to give into your lust filled desires eventually. Don't make coitus more than what it is.” Aunt Zelda says blandly.

“Oh my god Aunt Zee i am not talking about this anyways what's going on with the academy? Shouldnt you guys be giving a class?”

“The students have the day off as long as they're either studying their studies or reading while Mambo Marie and I put together a new curriculum.” Aunt Zee says putting down a piece of paper and taking a drag off her cigarette.

“And I have a date with Dr Cee to discuss wedding plans” Aunt Hilda comments eagerly.

“Ah yes another wedding but do be back sister I wanted to discuss the curriculum and your position with you. Since Mambo is here I wont be needing your help as much which gives you more time to participate in your extracurriculars.” Aunt Zelda states.

Hilda nods her head. “Well I'm off then.” She says nervously and eagerly walking out of the door.

I wave bye to Aunt Hilda before turning back to look at Aunt Zelda. “Do you know where I can find Ambrose, Aunt Zee?” I asked.

“Probably in the library where he always drown his sorrows.” She remarks. 

“Okay bye auntie i’ll be up to visit again soon.” I said as I began to walk out of the office and towards the library.

As I'm walking towards the library Nick and I almost run into each other. 

“Nick… how are you?” I came out with.

“Uh--Sabrina i’ve been good-- i've um-- i've been seeing someone, thanks to Ambrose. Hey uh-- i'm sorry… for everything. I uh-- heard you got married.” He chokes out.

“I’m sorry too Nick. I should've told you about Caliban’s and I alignment but everything was so off and painful between us. It made the most sense to keep the realms in balance.” I replied heartily.

“Is that all it is? Keeping the realms in balance?” He responded, heartbreak written on his face.

I looked down.”That’s what it started as.” I pulled him into an embrace. “Im sorry, Nick” I whispered into his ear.

“Its okay, Spellman.” He replied joining in the embrace. 

“Friends?” I whispered back. All the pain i once felt for our broken relationship was replaced with guilt for moving on and not feeling so heartbroken

We pulled out of the embrace. “Yeah.” He breathed out. “I’m just going to need some time.” 

I nod my head and begin to walk away watching tears brim in his eyes.

I finally reached the library and found Ambrose sitting at a desk surrounded by books, reading. 

“Hey Ambrose.” I announce.

“Cousin, what brings you up for a visit?” He asks surprised.

“You guys act like i've been gone for a year already. I just came to say hi before I had to do some Hell stuff. Aunt Zee said you were drowning your sorrows here, what's going on?”

“Ah I am alright cousin, Prudence still isn't speaking with me and I don't necessarily blame her.” He says setting his book down.

“Give her a few days she just needs to let off some steam.” I respond hopefully. 

“She’s really beating herself up over Dorcas and Agatha. I should've let her kill Blackwood when we had the chance.” He speaks frustrated as he drags his hands down his face. 

“Wait! Maybe I can help.” I speak with an idea brewing. “There’s not much I can do for Agatha since she’s still missing but I can maybe bring Dorcas back.” 

Ambrose jumps out of his seat. “What? How cousin, tell me?” 

“I should have all the powers I had when the Dark Lord made me his sword. I brought Melvin, Elspeth and you back from death so why not Dorcas?” I state.

“We have to find Prudence. She buried Dorcas here at the academy I think.” He announces hurriedly. So we rush to find Prudence and some time later we find her on the steps of the academy.

“Prudence!” I shouted when I found her. 

“What is it, Sabrina?” Prudence replies confused.

“Where’s Dorcas?” I responded hurriedly.

“She's gone. What do you need with her?” She remarks.

“I know Prudence and I want to try to bring her back.” I state calmly now.

She looks up at me with tears in her eyes. “What?” She breathes out.

“Prudence you remember what I could do with the Dark Lord’s power, well I should have the same power now since I am Queen of Hell.” I signify.

She stands up not breaking eye contact with me, never acknowledging Ambrose. “Do you really think you can?” 

“Lets try.” I spoke with confidence.

“Follow me.” she said walking away letting a single tear fall.

We reach Dorcas’s grave and Prudence begins digging before Ambrose stops her and takes over. In no time Ambrose had the grave dug up and was bringing Dorcas out to lay flat on the ground. I kneeled beside her and Prudence kneeled on the other side.

I closed my eyes and placed my hands on her chest above her heart. “Dorcas hear me, your heart can beat again. Your lungs and heart are strong. Take breath into your lungs and wake now. Rise.” I opened my eyes. “Did it work? Did it work, Sabrina?” asks anxiously. Before I could respond Dorcas sits up coughing up dirt from her lungs gasping for air. 

“Sister! Sister!” Prudence exclaimed. She looked up at me. “Thank you, Sabrina.” 

“Agatha.” Dorcas whispered once she caught her breath.

“Of course Prudence.” I beamed down at her. Ambrose came bent down where I was standing handing Dorcas water and a biscuit. I hadn't even noticed he left during the whole ordeal. 

“She’s gone, Dorcas. Driven mad by The God Pan and ran off after-- after killing you.” Prudence whispered holding Dorcas close.

“Ambrose I have to get back, make sure they get into the academy safely.” I said as Prudence and Dorcas stared at me in disbelief. 

Ambrose stood up pulling me into an embrace. “Thank you cousin, thank you.” He breathed out almost breathlessly.

“Anytime Ambrose.” I said before fire closed around me transporting me back to Hell.

Loki x Reader

Before Thor 1

Loki x Female Reader

Request: Nope

Warnings: (very little) death at end, peaceful.

Song: Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) by Green Day

(set in past England)

Loki falls in love with a Midgardian princess (you)

A/N: This took me forever but Im actually proud of it. After this I only have one more fic planned, so if anyone has requests I’ll have time to do them!

 Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road

 Loki would visit Midgard much more often than any of the other gods. Things were so much simpler here, and even though he wished to be a King one day, it was nice to just be one of the people.

 Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go

 He walked past a fountain in front of the castle to see a beautiful girl, a Midgardian with (h/c) hair and (s/c) skin. She was looking at the fountain and smiling, wearing a (f/c) dress that went just below her knees. Loki approached her and she turned to face him,

"I love looking at the water. It flows so beautifully, don't you think?" The girl asked. Loki hadn't paid attention to it before, but he took a moment to observe the patterns made by the water. They were indeed fascinating.

"Yes, it is." he said. she smiled at him

"You're not from around here?"

"No, how did you know?"

"Well, in part because of your accent. But you're talking to me. Most people don't"

"They don't speak to a lady as beautiful as yourself?" the girl laughed at this.

"You're definitely not from around here. My name is (y/n)" she extended her hand, and Loki took it.

"Loki. Do you mind explaining what you mean, Lady (y/n)?"

"Well, my mother is the queen."

 "Ah, so that would make you the lovely Princess (y/n), wouldn't it?" (y/n) blushed. This was the boldest man she had met, yet still seemed to be one of the kindest. He had a certain charm to him as well. She decided she liked him, and his gorgeous smile.

"Yes, I suppose it would. Tell me, how long do you plan on staying?"

 So make the best of this test and don't ask why

 Loki never figured out how he had managed to find a girl like (y/n). Over the past two years they had become good friends, he had been in the castle many times and even met the King and Queen. So far they had remained friends, though (y/n)s parents suspected that they wouldn't be for long. The God had told (y/n) tales of the nines realms, never letting her know they were more than fiction. But he had grown to care for her, and he thought it was time to tell her the truth.

"(y/n)" they were sitting in her room, her practicing her history at her desk and he sitting on the bed. She chewed on her quill.

"Yes Loki?" she said distractedly

"You remember the stories I've told you? About Asgard and the Nine Realms?" She turned to face him.

"Of course. Why?"

"Well.." he hesitated "What if I told you they were true? That the Nine Realms truly existed?"

"What do you mean?" He sighed and looked her in the eyes.

"Do you trust me?"

"Of course I do." She said. He held out a hand to her.

"Come here." She walked over to him and grabbed his hand, twisting their fingers together. Her heart beat wildly as he wrapped an arm around her.

"Hold on. This is going to be a bit strange, okay?"

"Loki, what are you doing?"

"Trust me." She wrapped her free arm around him and laid her face on his chest.

"Okay"

In a flash of Green Light, everything disappeared.

 It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time

 Three months later, Loki and (y/n) sat in the Gardens of Asgard. A soft breeze rippled the air, swaying the trees and flowers. They sat alone in a small clearing, hidden on all sides by a wall of bushes, accessible only by an opening on the front wall. (y/n) was laughing at something Loki had said, leaning her head onto his shoulder. Her laughter dwindled into a comfortable silence, broken by the sound of the wind and small animals skittering around the bushes. Loki sighed in contentment. They sat like this for a few minutes, before (y/n) pulled away to look at Loki. He looked at her in return. There was a small smile set over both their lips.

"You know Loki, you are truly beautiful." she whispered, letting her hand drag gently down his face. He smiled back at her.

"I believe you're the most beautiful one here." He whispered back. (Y/n) readjusted her hand to pull him closer, their eyes fluttering closed as their lips met in a sweet and gentle kiss.

Loki smiled as they parted

"Princess (y/n), would you do me the honour of courting me?"

"That sounds lovely, Prince Loki." He waved his hand in the air, and a green glow formed itself into a ring, transforming into a crown made of her favorite flowers.

"For my lovely Queen." He placed it on her head. (y/n) giggled.

"Thank you, My King." They laughed together, and then shared another gentle kiss.

 It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right

 Loki had never expected to fall in love with a Midgardian until he met (y/n). Of course, he couldn't tell his parents, they would never approve. Well, his father wouldn't. But he still loved her, and she loved him. Having her curled up in his arms every night, her soft kisses and nuzzles, her gorgeous laugh, everything about her made him know, no matter what everyone else would say, that this was completely and utterly right.

I hope you had the time of your life

 She walked down the aisle in a flowing white dress, her arm linked with her fathers. When she reached the end of the aisle, he whispered in her ear and kissed her cheek, then released her to her future husband. On the alter, Loki smiled. Never had he seen someone so beautiful. He was lost in her eyes. He was going to marry her. She was going to be his Queen, Lady Odinson. When it was his turn to say I Do, he said it confidently and happily, declaring his love for her.

They danced afterwards, to one of his favorite Midgardian songs. She was beaming, she was perfect. He wanted this moment to last forever.

 So take the photographs and still frames in your mind

 "Long Live Queen (y/n) and King Loki!"

(y/n)s parents had stepped down from the throne, leaving (y/n) as queen. It was several months after the wedding, and they were loved by the people. Loki and (y/n) would rule together, side by side, for many years. And they were happy.

  Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time

 "Oh my God,"  (y/n) let out a happy laugh, mixed with tears. "Oh my god, she's beautiful." Loki and his wife sat in their chambers, admiring their new born daughter.

"She is." Loki said. He reached for (y/n)s hand, squeezing it, never taking his eyes off the little girl.

"Mommy! Daddy!" a little boy of four years ran in, followed by a hassled looking maid "Is that my new baby! I want to see! Look, I drawed a picture!" he held up a paper of scribbles, apparently supposed to be of his sibling.

"I'm sorry your highnesses, he got out of my control." said the maid as your son ran to you.

"It's quite alright. Would you like to see her?" (y/n) replied, smiling at her eager little boy.

"Oh my, it would be an honour my lady."

"Is it a boy or a girl?" the son asked, scrunching his face at the baby.

"A girl. Her name is (name)"

"She's lovely" the maid said, looking at the king and queen. "May she grow to be as kind and beautiful as you."

"Thank you ma'am." Loki said, wrapping his arm around his son. "You may leave if you wish." The maid left the room.

(y/n) looked at Loki and kissed him, smiling.

"Ewww!!!" the little boy stuck his tongue out and Loki laughed.

"If I want to kiss your mommy, I shall kiss your mommy." He tossed him in the air, making him giggle, then kissed him on the nose upon catching him. "And I'll kiss you and her sister when I wish as well"

 Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial

 Years later, when they were both older, they sat together in the dying sun. They could see the whole kingdom from their seats on the balcony, near the top of the castle. Silently holding each other's hand, (y/n) sighed happily. She looked at Loki's face and smiled.

"Love, you haven't aged a day." she said. And it was true. He looked nearly the same as the first time she'd seen him, standing by that fountain as a young girl. She was older now, and so was he of course, but it wasn't the same. And yet, she never doubted his love for her.

Loki never doubted his love either, but watching her age was painful. His time with her seemed so short, so unfair that she would leave this world and he would linger on. Living without her would be impossible. And even now, her face visibly matured, her hair no longer as sleek and shiny, her face in the ligt of the sunset was as beautiful as ever. The most beautiful thing he'd ever see, he'd ever lose.

 For what it's worth it was worth all the while

"Love, come with me to Asgard. Stay with me there." (y/n) turned to smile at the man beside her. They had woken up only a few moments ago, everything was warm and light and beautiful.

"I can't yet love. I have to stay. Our children aren't ready yet."

"Darling…"

"In due time Loki. I will join you, once they're ready."

"Of course."

"I love you."

"I love you too"

 It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right

 Two years later, (y/n) turned to Loki.

"Take me to Asgard."

"Pardon?" he said. A smile grew upon (y/n)s now wrinkled face.

"They are ready. Take me to Asgard." he blinked and smiled.

"Certainly darling. Anything for you"

 I hope you had the time of your life

 The last few years had been difficult. (Y/n) was aging, they both knew that Loki would lose her soon. He cast spells, preserving her health and slowing her aging, but in the end, she was a mortal. Spells could only go so far.

It was a dark evening, they were staring at the stars. It had been long since they had left Midgard, and since then they'd known only peace.

"Loki," she said, looking at him.

"Yes love?" He looked back at her. Despite her age, her eyes were as bright as ever.

"I ask you only one thing. Compared to me, you are still young, though we have aged together. You will fall in love again, I accept this. But promise me, you'll never forget me."

"(y/n)…" tears filled his eyes. "I will never forget you. I will always love you, and you alone. You are my wife and my Queen. My stars and my galaxy and my universe. The most and only perfect person I've ever met. You are the meaning in my life. I don't know what I'll do without you, but I will never, ever forget you."

 It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right

  She was gone. They'd come back to Midgard months ago, to say goodbye to her children and her kingdom. It had been a long time coming, but it was still a shock.

And as Loki sat by her bed, sobbing and holding her hand, he reminded her of his promise.

"I'll never forget you, my lovely Queen. One day we will be reunited in the halls of Valhalla. We will meet again, and I'll love you no less. We'll be together again my Queen. We will be, I promise."

  I hope you had the time of your life

  He had lost her. He lost the love of his life. He had known this, but as he sat where she was buried, looking at her name on the stone, he realized it. She was gone. (y/n) was gone, and he'd live on for years. He'd have to live without her. He cried, remembering her touch on his skin and her soft words to him. His whisper was lost in the wind of the graveyard, which stirred the leaves fallen on the ground, and nobody heard him but the spirits of Valhalla.

 "Goodbye, (y/n)."

And, in the wind of the graveyard, he thought he heard another gentle whisper.

"Goodbye Loki"

  It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right

I hope you had the time of your life

   lately i have been thinking about very specific plots for my muses and they aren’t exactly ones that i can just reblog into my wishlist or whatever but they are very unique to my girls. so i’ve decided to compile all of those plots here, in hopes that someone will see this list and want to do one, two or five. if you want to do any of the plots under the cut with my girlies, please just im me and we can go from there!! these are basically my ultimate ship plots for them that i will actually kill a man for.

**all lesbian plots are highly selective and will only continue if we plot things out extensively and i feel comfortable with roleplaying with you**

PARK AERI. 25. HETEROSEXUAL. MODEL/ACTRESS.

the classic arranged marriage/engagement plot. maybe the son of her father’s business partner? they decide it will be a good business deal for them (and ofc aeri’s mother would agree cause it will make aeri even more of a hot topic) and like maybe the guy needs to fix his image so they’re thrown together. the feeling doesn’t have to be mutual but aeri will probably hate him and make it known but she will also like warm up to him. 

beauty and the bodyguard aka he’s her bodyguard and maybe she gets drunk one night and comes on to him but he just takes her home. but then gets cocky the next day and teases her about it and that will probably build up tension for aeri so they end up sleeping together. but then it happens again and again and it becomes a cycle until they’re left with figuring out what the hell they’re gonna do esp when photos are released by the press of the two of them being cozy. 

aeri is lowkey a big nerd so maybe she goes to the one bookstore frequently and has kinda developed a friendship with the owner/worker and they’re like the only person in the world that kind of sees her being herself and idk maybe he asks her on a date and shes like *blushes* 

literally any plot where she falls in love with a bad boy like maybe he’s a killer or a gang member but like she gets turned on by it because she’s literally the worst

LEE EUNJIN. 21. BISEXUAL. ASPIRING ACTRESS.

forever wanting roommate plots for her because it’s just funny and your muse will get a kick out of seeing her in her natural habitat failing to Function

tbh i wouldn’t mind something where she ends up dating a single parent? like eunjin is literally a child herself and if she really likes the person she will want to make it work even if it means putting on a diaper backwards or something 

DO BORA. 19. QUESTIONING. MED STUDENT.

her first gay experience?? yes please?? like bora is the purest baby ever and like having a crush on a girl will be the softest thing ever and it would be so sweet if she had a girlfriend who kinda takes her under her wing and shows her the gay way. she will be the most flustered lil angel 

i really want maybe a ghost/bora plot or something? she’s a clairvoyant and can see ghosts and she’s also like a magnet for supernatural things and has been all her life so it would be interesting for her to like idk fall in love with a ghost

literally any supernatural creature x bora ship makes me excited. 

your muse works at the hospital she is interning at as an entertainer in the childrens ward or something and they cross paths often and their first unofficial date is them eating vending machine food at 3am while she’s on a 14 hour shift and then it turns to them sneaking into the janitors closet and her turning to them when she loses her first patient etc. 

CHA MUHYEON. 24. HETEROSEXUAL. GOVERNMENT ASSASSIN/AGENT.

they both work for the government and are assigned to do an undercover mission where they need to be husband and wife in a neighbourhood to gather intel or something and they basically end up actually being a married couple and falling in love

a life as we know it plot where they went on a blind date set up by their friends who happen to be a couple years before and it was shit, they end up despising each other. flash forward and that friend couple are married and have a baby that they are the god parents of. those friends die in a crash and they’re left to raise their child. 

childhood best friend who is like her bro that she gets fake engaged to just to shut her parents up and to make it seem like she has a normal life and it’s like awkward for them to kiss and stuff but ofc they end up falling in love.

a bad boy criminal who finesses her and she falls in love with him when working his case and now theres a major conflict of interest because oh no he’s really bad. 

THEODORA. 26. BISEXUAL. MECHANIC. 

roommates to lovers please and thank you. like they would have to be a bro kind of person for her to get along with and like imagine if they are both pretty broke so they only have a studio apartment to share with one bed. 

younger!teddy moves in across the street for the summer with her family. falls in love with your muse for the summer but they need to part ways, only for her to be bit by a werewolf on the day she was supposed to leave. she needs to stay in town to be part of her pack so she ends up still living across the street and your muse is like ?? and she explains it. basically human significant other x an adjusting werewolf pls. 

PARK NARI. 26. HETEROSEXUAL. EX IDOL/SONGWRITER.

maybe a boy that she grew up playing baseball with since that was pretty much her childhood and they reunite years later after she debuted and also fell from the spotlight as an idol idk?

a fake engagement plot between her and a work colleague since her mother is always pressuring her to be a wife and have kids so she decides to take matters into her own hands and fakes it to get her off her back. fails to realize she needs to actually pretend to be in love with this person and things get awkward at work. 

maybe an old trainee/idol friend who she hasn’t seen since she debuted years ago gets signed to her company and walks into her office one day to record a demo for a song that she was working on. maybe the song was written about them. maybe she was in love with them??

MOON OCTAVIA. 22. QUESTIONING. ART STUDENT.

childhood best friends/neighbours who wave grown up together and have been inseparable since birth? like they have basically been dating all their lives just without the kissing and stuff: girlfriends have always been jealous of her or threatened even though everyone in town has accepted they are like this. going into college she gets into witchcraft and puts a love spell on him after realizing she has a case of Feelings. plot twist: the spell doesn’t work on them because they are already in love with her. also their parents are best friends too and provide funny commentary and her dad is actually surprised they end up together even tho the other parents have been rooting for them.

basically she’s the school’s big old virgin and gets made fun of a lot for it and maybe there’s a jock who makes a bet with his buddies where they are like “i bet u won’t be able to take her v card” so he starts dating her as a bet. but falls in love with her. lots of angst when she finds out. 

okay but also something like buffy the vampire slayer where she’s like willow aka the witch and your muse is like xander aka the human friend and idk i have some ideas (may have lowkey written a fanfiction that was a the 100 x btvs cross over and that is what octavia is based off of)

another first gay experience would be great for this lil bean. she’s another one who would get flustered and shy over having a crush on a girl and stuff.

TEACHER X STUDENT PLOT TOO!! 

ANDROMEDA LEE. 24. BISEXUAL. CRIMINAL. 

an inmate x guard relationship like in s1 of orange is the new black but she doesn’t end up pregnant with a baby (or maybe she does who knows) and maybe they end up living happily ever after once she gets out. 

someone she does shady stuff with who has kinda always had her back even though they have gotten in trouble doing things together but still. 

good boy/girl bad girl but they find out that at heart she is actually a good girl.

Hi, i just wanted to say that your newmann fanfictions make me so happy and i get super excited when i see you post a new one. If you are still doing them, can you maybe do prompt 17: Marriage Proposal?

thank you so much!!!!! i'm so glad people are enjoying them!! i've actually had a marriage proposal fic in my docs for quite some time i never got around to finishing/posting so here u go (all the other prompts in my inbox i promise ill get to u soon im just writing these in order of inspiration)

(Prompt from here!) very mild M (for implied sex) and under cut bc this is a long one but i’m a romantic, so

Newt lays on his stomach, chin pillowed on Hermann’s chest while Hermann plays with his hair. It’s still slightly damp from the shower Hermann forced him to take; Newt had been all gung-ho about just jumping into bed and then Hermann’s bones, but Hermann was wary about contact with the medley of filth, blood, and kaiju viscera that’d accumulated on Newt’s body throughout the day. Which, of course, is a completely justified concern, Newt smelled and looked like death personified and his clothing--now lying in a heap by the bathroom door--is completely unsalvageable. And then they got to shower together, which exceeded all of Newt’s expectations. Now, they’ve dimmed the lights, save for the small lamp Newt keeps on his desk, and it’s warm and cozy. Hermann looks exceptionally handsome like this, all open and vulnerable with his hair all damp and messy. Hermann always looks exceptionally handsome to Newt, though.

It strikes Newt, in that moment, that he wants to see Hermann vulnerable and soft and cuddled up against Newt all the time; furthermore, that awesome sex doesn’t even necessarily need to precede it (though he wouldn’t object). The concept doesn’t panic him.

He sits up, knocking the sheet away from their bodies, and Hermann makes a grumpy noise when he’s suddenly devoid of Newt’s body heat. “Let’s get married,” Newt declares.

Hermann blinks at him. “Let’s--what?”

“Let’s get married,” Newt repeats. “Let’s elope. Run away together.”

Truthfully, Newt’s fantasized about marrying Hermann a lot. He fantasized about it when they were writing letters and he was young and head-over-heels for his genius pen pal he’d never met. He fantasized about it when they were forced to work together in Hong Kong and he realized that Hermann Gottlieb was an attractive bastard when he was angry. He fantasized about it as a motivator for long nights in the lab, when he was running on two hours of sleep: save the world, and Hermann will fall in love with you and you can get married. He never fantasized about proposing like this--usually, Hermann was the one doing the proposing in his mind--but Newt’s a scientist. He knows how to adapt to new information, like the new information (gained immediately post-first-time-sex with Hermann, and in a shower at that) that he never wants to be apart from Hermann ever again if he can help it.

“We’ve only--” Hermann splutters, clearly not on the same page, “this was our first--!”

“Look, man,” Newt says, snuggling back up against Hermann, because now that they’re basically fiancés he’s allowed to. “I’m totally in love with you, you’re totally in love with me,” he raises a finger for each point like he’s making a list, “we’re both great at sex, we’ve known each other for over a decade, we have absolutely nothing to do now that the world’s not in mortal peril so we may as well--”

“Boredom is not a reason to get married,” Hermann interrupts, and then his face heats up to a spectacular shade of red when the full effect of what Newt said sinks in. “You’re--in love with me?”

“One hundred percent,” Newt says happily, and starts pressing little kisses across Hermann’s collarbone. Newt’s a fan of all of Hermann, of course, but his collarbones are particularly nice. They’re bony, and they stick out a bit. He’s excited for when they get married and he has 24/7 access to kissing them. “Did I not say that earlier?”

“You did not,” Hermann says, eyes wide.

“Whoops.” Newt shrugs. “So, is that a yes?”

“You’re ridiculous,” Hermann says. “People don’t just get married on a whim. We can’t just get married on a whim. We--” Newt presses more little kisses across Hermann’s face and cheeks, and Hermann’s stern tone wavers, “we, ah--”

“That’s not a no,” Newt hums. “I’m not hearing a no. C’mon, Hermann, I’ll get down on one knee if you want me to. Oh!” He quickly works the skull ring off his pinkie, flourishes it triumphantly. Hermann stares. “Here. I’ll get you a cooler one later that costs a shit ton of money, with a big fancy stone.” Only what Hermann deserves.

“Newton,” Hermann begins, touching the ring gently and--

“Holy shit, man, are you crying?” Hermann says nothing, but his eyes are wet and his lip is trembling, and Newt doesn’t know what to do. He’s never seen Hermann cry. Not in his entire time knowing him. Especially not happy crying.

“Fine,” Hermann says, oddly hoarse. “Let’s get married.” Newt feels giddy. He tries to slip the skull ring onto Hermann’s ring finger, but--unsurprisingly--it’s too small, so he puts it on his pinkie instead. Hermann stares at it a moment longer, and then kisses Newt again and again.

New Years Eve (Rosawatts)

authors note: it’s a to the moon fanfiction! my first one ever! fun times. so, number one, i did write this pretty quickly and only went over it once so if theres mistakes im really sorry! and two, i feel like in one of the minisodes they mentioned eva’s canon family but i just. completely forgot about that. so if eva does have a canon family sorry about that- all of her family members i just completely made up. this fic is also pretty long- or at least i think so. its a little more than 5k words. just an fyi, i guess. anyway, thats about all i have to say, so thanks!

Neil was awoken to the sound of incredibly loud banging outside of his hotel room.

“Neil! Neil Watts! Open this door right now, I know you’re in there! I am not afraid to open this door by force, I swear!”

Neil sat up in his bed, feeling slightly uncomfortable due to the hard mattress and also the fact that this was not his usual bed. He wipes the sleep out of his eyes and quickly puts his glasses on so that he’s able to see more than two feet in front of him. He takes a quick scan of his surroundings. There’s cheap art of fruit baskets and lakes all around the stark white room, an old TV that he’s surprised even works anymore, and the weird, popcorn effect of the ceiling. He quickly realized that he wasn’t in his apartment he shared with Eva- but he was still groggy enough to not remember the reason why.

The woman outside the door continues to yell, obviously either not aware of the other patrons in the hotel, or she quite simply doesn’t care. She starts banging on the door again. “Come on, groom to be! Eva will literally kill you if you’re late, so if I were you I’d hurry up.” A brief silence ensues, giving the still tired Neil- not really listening to anything the voice outside says- the time to finally step out of his bed, wipe off his glasses, and head towards the door. The noise outside quickly pipes back up. “It’s also a possibility I will kill you before Eva gets the chance to. So you better hurry up.”

Neil groggily walks towards the door, it still shaking even though the person outside knows for a fact that the door is locked. Still stretching his face out, trying to wake himself up, he finally answers the person outside. “…Roxie?” Neil says, slightly yawning.

“Yes, Neil, it’s Roxie. Who else would be yelling at you at 9 am?”

“Eva.”

“Other than Eva, idiot. You guys aren’t allowed to see each other today.”

This sentence quickly jumpstarts Neil’s memory- even though Eva and Neil aren’t really ones for superstitions or traditions, they decided to do the whole thing of not being able to see each other on their wedding day.

Their wedding day.

On this day, Dr. Neil Watts is going to marry Dr. Eva Rosalene.

“I’m assuming you just woke up, considering it took me about 20 minutes to even get a response out of you.” Neil assumes that Roxie is exaggerating this, as she does with most stories, but he wasn’t entirely sure. He decided to go the safe route and not question this in case the story actually was true.

“Yeah, can I just… uh…. can you hold on a quick second?”

“Are you going to let me in or do I need to sit out here for another half hour?”

Roxie increased the time again, so Neil can safely assume that she did exaggerate how long she was outside, banging on his door.

“Just hold on!”

“If you’re in your little Pokemon boxers, I’ve seen them before. I’ll be fine. Just let me in, Neil, oh my God.”

Neil turns a bright red as he looks down, seeing his bright blue boxers with the little red Pokemon logo on it. “Wait, Roxie, how do you know I have… better question, when have you seen them?” There is silence from the other side of the door, but Neil has known Roxie long enough that she’s probably rolling her eyes.

“So, obviously you don’t remember anything about your bachelor party.”

Neil is too embarrassed to answer. He’s always been a little self conscious about how much of a lightweight he is- it doesn’t take him much to get him blackout drunk.

“Okay. Long story short, you got blackout drunk- obviously- and you wouldn’t stop taking off your pants to show everyone the ‘super cool Pokemon boxers’ that your ‘beautiful wife’ got you, even though you weren’t married yet. I tried to help you to your car because you literally could not stop stumbling, and you yelled at me multiple times for ‘trying to flirt with a happily married man.’”

Neil blushes thinking of drunk-Neil’s shenanigans, but he does think it was really funny he was telling everyone he was married. He’ll probably tell Eva about this story after the wedding- he’d like the embarrass himself as little as possible in front of her before they get married.

“Neil, I will start yelling again.”

“Just let me put my pants on, Roxie! I’d rather you not have to see my boxers while I’m sober.”

Roxie lets out a long, drawn out ‘ugh’ outside of the door while Neil quickly goes through all of his things, looking for pants. The first thing he finds are the dress pants that go with his suit, so he quickly pulls those on and opens the latch on the door, before Roxie ends up waking up the people in the building next to the hotel.

Neil opens the door, looking straight ahead, before quickly looking down to make eye contact with Roxie. He stands almost a foot taller than her, and it infuriates her whenever he jokes about her height or rests his arm on her head. He decided not to bring anything up today. He can already tell Roxie is angry.

“You owe me so many gallons of ice cream for this.”

“I really think you were only out here for a couple of minutes-”

“So. Many. Gallons.”

Neil shuts up quickly, staring into Roxie’s glaring eyes. Roxie quickly scans over him, giggling. “Graphic t-shirt and dress pants. It’s a really good look for you, Neil.” Neil turns bright red once again.

“Wedding’s at 6, Watts. All the groomsmen are downstairs. The bridesmaid are all helping Eva out- except for the best one, of course.” Roxie does the fingers in the cheek thing, smiling warmly at Neil. “None of us are dressed up yet. We’re gonna dress up a few hours before hand. We’re all going out for brunch.”

“Wait, why aren’t you helping Eva out?”

“Well, she did tell me that I could help out, but I know myself. I’d probably end up spilling everything humanly possible onto her dress. So I just decided…. not to.”

“You think it’s fine to spill stuff on my outfit though.”

“Weddings are for two people and two people only- the bride and the bride’s mother. So, no, you don’t really matter in the whole equation.”

“Yeah, because the whole marriage and love thing doesn’t matter at all.”

“Exactly!”

Neil sighs, not bothering to deal with Roxie’s logic of marriage and weddings this morning. “So I’m gonna get changed so that… I don’t want to go to brunch looking like this.”

“That’s probably a good idea.”

“Thanks, I try,” Neil says, with a cocky grin. Roxie rolls her eyes as Neil closes and latches the door.

* * *

Eva keeps twirling the engagement ring around her finger. She has a lot of pent up nervousness about this day- it needs to be perfect. Not that she’d ever tell Neil, but she’d daydreamed a lot about her wedding day. Sure, as her third-grade self she had never imagined the man she would one day marry would’ve been a snarky, sarcastic asshole, but she did know that she would’ve never picked someone she wasn’t sure she truly loved. She knew she made the right choice, she just didn’t want to kick off their marriage with a horrible start.

Her mom, Estella, walked into the bedroom alongside Eva’s twin sister Charlotte (who was called Charlie by basically everyone who knew her). They looked like they were glowing.

Charlie started lightly jumping up and down, clapping her hands and smiling cheerfully. “Evie, it’s here! You’re getting married!”

Eva jumps up with a start at this, not realizing that they were in the room. Eva starts, “How long have you two…” when Charlie sprints towards her and envelopes her in a bear hug.

“Evie, oh my god, you’re getting married! It’s finally happening! I’m so excited, oh my  god! I’m the most excited I’ve ever been!” Charlie pulls away from the hug, still slightly bouncing. “Well, okay, probably not the most excited, I was probably more excited on my wedding day, but you know what I mean. And you’re probably more excited than I am. I mean, that makes sense, right? Anyway.” Charlie takes a deep breath from chattering excitedly. Eva smiles warmly to herself- there’s really no stopping Charlie ones she gets talking. Not that she minds, Charlie’s always been her best friend since day one and she appreciates that she can do the talking for the both of them.

“Umm… thank you, Charlie. I am also very excited,” Eva says, stifling a laugh. She looks behind Charlie, seeing her mom still standing by the doorway. She sees Eva looking at her, and she gives her a warm smile, closing her eyes. Eva smiles back.

“So… when are we starting with the makeup? I’m so excited! I can’t wait to do your makeup! Oh my goodness, you’re going to look so beautiful! Not that you don’t already. I’m just super excited!” Charlie starts bouncing up and down again, along with her natural curls, while Eva starts giggling while Charlie keeps prattling on excitedly.

Eva looks around towards the doorway. “Mom? Where are the rest of the bridesmaids?” Her mom was one of the bridesmaids, and she had agreed to keep track of everyone. Usually that job went to the maid of honor, who was Charlie (technically matron of honor, in her case), but they all had mutually agreed they would not have Charlie in charge of keeping track of everything. Her mom responds in a small voice, “They’re all carpooling here. As you know, that girl… Roxanne? She’s staying with Neil. Too clumsy.” Her mom smiles with this last sentence. It wasn’t meant maliciously, Estella loves all of Eva’s friends, but anyone from a mile away can tell Roxie is one of the clumsiest people to grace this Earth.

The last three bridesmaids- Sophie, Maria and Valentina- were close friends from college that Eva was able to keep close in touch with. They weren’t doing anything in particular to help Eva out with her wedding, they were there for morale support and to give Charlie other people to talk to. Charlie was a professional cosmetologist, so she was in charge of doing Eva’s hair and makeup; Estella was in charge of making sure everyone was in the right place, at the right time. All Eva had to do was make sure she looked presentable, and show up to her wedding on time.

Eva hears the doorbell ring from the front of her shared apartment, and Charlie lights up. “Oh! They’re here! I finally have company!” Eva started to say something along the lines of, “Am I not good enough company for you?” but Charlie had already sprinted towards the door. In just a few seconds, she heard the hellos and semi-quiet screaming of girls by the door. Estella turns to Eva. “I’m going to step into a different room. I need to check on the Neil and the boys…” She smiles to herself. She had always loved Neil- he always managed to curb his tongue whenever he was near her. “Oh! And Roxanne.” She pats Eva’s arm appreciatively, and heads into the living room as all the other girls file in to the bedroom.

Charlie holds up a hair dryer in one hand and a hair straightener in the other. “Alright, Evie! 11 am. Gotta head out at 4. Five hours to get you ready for your wonderful groom!” Charlie smiles with all her teeth as Sophie, Maria and Valentina cheer behind her. Eva smiles sheepishly as she sits down at her vanity, waiting for Charlie to work her magic.

* * *

Neil, Roxie, Alistair, Rob and a few others who were Neil’s personal friends were still all sitting down at the brunch place. The wait had taken a while (this place was always very popular) and with the amount of people in the restaurant, the food had also taken a while to arrive. Everyone was already mostly finished up as Neil got the phone call from Eva’s mom. His phone started vibrating as the contact ‘Estella ❤’ popped up.

“Uh… I’m gonna go take care of this okay? You guys got the bill? Thanks guys love you bye!” Neil finishes quickly and leaves the restaurant to step outside as Rob yells after him.

Neil steps out into the cold winter air- Neil thought it would be romantic if they had gotten married in the winter. Eva didn’t care either way, she was just excited for the wedding. They had both decided on New Year’s Eve (which Neil had also suggested, thinking that it would be symbolic for their ‘new beginning.’ Not that Neil would ever admit this to Eva.)

He immediately regretted not bringing a heavier jacket or maybe some gloves, which Roxie had pestered him to do so and Neil had brushed her off. He picked up the call for Estella, fingers already freezing.

“Hello?”

“Ah, Neil!” He smiles to himself. He always loved how happy Estella was to hear from him.

“Yes, hi, Estella. What’s going on?”

“Just checking up on my boys! How’s Roxanne?”

Neil looks inside the window of the restaurant, watching Roxie pick up her drink and accidently spill some on herself. He turns back around. “Well… she’s exactly how you’d expect her to be.”

He hears Estella giggle on the other line. Neil smiles.

“So? Neil? Are you ready? I know I am a nice woman but if you are late I will find you.”

“Yes- yes, Estella, I’m going to be ready. All of our suits are dry cleaned and at my hotel room. Is Eva almost done with her makeup?” Neil smiles to himself again. It hasn’t really hit him yet how big of a thing this is- he’s getting married. To Eva Rosalene. The girl he’s had a crush on since high school.

“Oh, she hasn’t even started on makeup yet! She’s still straightening her hair. It might be a while.”

“Estella, not that I don’t love talking to you, but could you hand me to Eva? I’d really appreciate it.”

“Yes! Sure! Just one second.”

Neil hears shuffling on the phone and takes this moment to look back inside. He sees Rob paying the bill, then he turns back to Neil, giving him the ‘I’m watching you’ gesture. Neil quickly turns back around.

He then jumps, hearing a loud cacophony of noises from the other line. Lots of girl’s voices yelling “Hi, Neil!” and some other squeals in the background.

“Hi, hi, everyone.”

He hears some whispering that he can’t really make out, but soon he hears Eva’s voice.

“Neil?”

He puts on his sappiest, mushiest voice. “Hi, babykins!” he says, drawing out each word.

“I swear to god, Neil, if you ever say that to me ever again I will call off this wedding.”

Neil laughs. “So, babe, what’s happenin?

“I’m just getting my- OW! Charlie!” He hears some muttered apologies, presumably from Charlie. “I’m getting my hair done, if Charlie doesn’t rip it all out first.” He hears Charlie go, ‘hey!’ in a mock-offense tone.

“Sounds like a really fun time.”

“Yeah, I can tell how enthralled you are by your voice.”

“So… whatcha gettin done?”

“Neil. Come on. You know I’m not allowed to tell you what I look like.”

Neil grins. “Not allowed to say what you look like?”

“Wait, I didn’t-”

“Oh no, Eva, I’m forgetting what you look like! What color is your hair? Do you still have those beautiful dark brown eyes? I don’t know. And you can’t tell me.”

“Neil, I swear, you know what I meant.”

“Please answer my questions. I’m getting so worried. I can’t remember.”

“I hate you so much,” Eva answers, but he can tell she’s speaking with a smile.

Neil sees the group leaving the restaurant, Roxie turning around and waving at him to follow them. Neil turns back to his phone.

“Alright, I gotta go. Hanging out with my crew, you know the deal.”

Eva sighs from the other line. “Bye, Neil.”

“I love you!”

Eva smiles. “I love you too.”

“Okay, bye for real this time. Roxie has been glaring at me this whole time.”

“Bye.”

“Adios, Eva.” Neil hangs up the phone, puts it in his pocket, and walks over to Roxie to rejoin the group.

* * *

“I cannot believe you don’t know how to tie a bowtie.”

“This would’ve been much easier if everyone could’ve worn a tie, not just the groomsmen.”

“Would I have had to help you out with tying a tie too, Neil?” Roxie asks with a smirk.

In the church’s dressing room, Roxie was standing on her tiptoes to try to help Neil get his tuxedo on. Neil was able to get everything else on- Estella made sure he could button everything and that everything was the correct size for him. However, Neil had never learned how to tie a bowtie.

“Well, you see, I know how to tie a tie. I just never wear bowties.”

“It’s really not that difficult.”

“Don’t patronize me, Roxie. Not on my wedding day.”

Roxie giggles a little bit, as she finished up his bowtie. Neil makes eye contact with Rob, standing by the doorway. He’s there to make sure Neil and Eva don’t see each other before the big moment.

“You really should learn how to tie a bowtie, Neil.”

“Rob, do not make me resend your best man responsibilities.”

Even though Neil and Rob had more or less hated each other when Neil had started working, Neil had eventually warmed up to him. Rob was one of the ones who first caught on to Neil’s crush on Eva, and prompted him to ask her out. Neil decided that this was good enough to give him the position of best man.

Rob smiles. “You’re going to resend my best man responsibilities.”

“If you keep talking like that, yes, absolutely.”

Neil walks over to the tall mirror to check himself out. He does a few poses in the mirror, giving Rob a glare when he sees him laughing in the background.

“I can’t believe I’m going to look better than Eva on our wedding day.”

“That part’s debatable,” Rob answers.

Roxie adds onto this. “Yeah, you haven’t even seen Eva yet. Trust me on this one, she looks absolutely stunning. I can’t wait to look that good on my wedding day.”

Neil turns around, putting on a self assured face. “No, trust me, I definitely look better than her. Me and Eva are having a little competition for whoever looks better today.”

Roxie raises an eyebrow. “…Eva agreed to that?”

“Well, no, but… I did. And that’s what matters.”

Roxie and Rob sigh at the same time.

“Are you nervous?” Roxie asks.

Neil has felt butterflies in his stomach the whole day, and now knowing the wedding’s going to start in half an hour his hands have started to shake.

“Absolutely not. I was born ready for this, are you kidding?”

Roxie and Rob obviously saw through this, but they said nothing.

Roxie starts backing up towards the door. “Gotta go meet up with the bridesmaids- haven’t even gotten into my dress yet.” Roxie ducks out into the hallway. “Adios, losers!” she yells, voice echoing down the hallway. Neil sighs.

Rob and Neil stand in silence for a few moments, before Rob pipes up.

“Are you ready?”

Neil turns to himself in the mirror again, giving himself a once over. His tuxedo is all buttoned up, none of his clothes have any wrinkles, and his white boutonniere was perfectly placed in his pocket. He looked good to go.

But how are you ever ready for the most important moment of your life?

Neil turns back around to Rob. “The readiest I’ve ever been.”

“I don’t think readiest is a word.”

“Shut up, Rob.”

All of the many guests have sat themselves down in the large church. The officiant has made his way to the altar. Neil and Rob have made their way to the altar from the side door. All the bridesmaids and groomsmen have made their way to the top; all the groomsmen in black tuxedos and ties; all bridesmaids in cream colored dresses with gold sashes. Charlie then walks up to the altar by herself, in a full length gold dress. The ring bearer has delivered the rings, and the flower girl has sprayed flower petals over the aisle.

The only thing left was Eva and her father, James, to walk down the aisle.

Neil kept fidgeting with his pockets. The only other wedding he had been to before was Charlie’s, and he didn’t pay attention to what the groom was doing because he was too busy getting yelled at by Eva for not paying attention.

He now wishes he would’ve actually watched the reception instead of trying to get Eva to laugh at his jokes. Almost all eyes are on him. He’s never had stage fright, he was always a theatre kid at heart, but he has never been this nervous before in his life.

The organ player starts up and Neil quickly picks his head up to watch the big church doors at the end of the aisle. Everyone in the pews stands up, facing the doors too. Neil’s heart is beating faster than it ever had before.

The big church doors burst open, as the organ player plays a crescendo. James and Eva walk through the doors, and-

Eva looks the most beautiful Neil has ever seen her.

Her hair is in a low bun, held up with silver hairsticks. She is in a beautiful, long a-line sweetheart dress with long lace sleeves. Her face is covered with a veil, but Neil knows she looks as beautiful as she always does.

James and Eva slowly walk down the aisle, and Neil realises he’s tearing up. He remembers what he said to Eva one time- how ‘liquids and solids’ come out of his mouth at weddings- but he knew that was a lie. He was a sucker for weddings, he just couldn’t help it. He tries to wipe his eyes, before actual tears start rolling down his cheeks. He keeps his hand up by his face the entire time Eva is walking towards him, he can hardly believe this. He’s really doing this. He’s really going to marry Dr. Eva Rosalene.

James and Eva reach the end of the aisle, and Neil can finally see Eva’s face through the veil. She’s smiling at him. Neil smiles back, eyes tearing up again.

James takes a seat in the front row, watching Eva step up onto the altar to join Neil.

Eva takes Neil’s hands in her own. She looks up at him, smiling warmly. Neil keeps looking at her with bewilderment- she’s here, right in front of him, and she looks so beautiful. Neil can’t help it this time- tears start rolling down his face. He can’t wipe them away, he doesn’t want to stop holding Eva’s hands.

Eva starts giggling. “Thought you weren’t the sentimental type?” Eva whispers under her breath, while the officiant talks behind them.

“Eva. Not on my wedding day.” Neil whispers back.

“Just your wedding day, huh?”

Neil was about to respond, when the officiant said, “And do you, Dr. Neil Watts, take Dr. Eva Rosalene as your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?”

Neil looks at the officiant, then back to Eva, staring into her beautiful dark brown eyes. He chokes up a little before answering. “I do.” He says this while not looking away from Eva’s eyes.

(Not that he’d ever tell Eva, but he did consider saying ‘no’ as a joke when answering this question, but then he realised that almost every person there would murder him. So he decided against it.)

Eva smiles at him. The officiant turns to her. “And do you, Dr. Eva Rosalene, take Dr. Neil Watts as your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?”

Eva looks up at Neil, and holds her gaze for a few moments. “I do.”

The officiant smiles at the both of them, and then to the crowd.

“I now pronounce you husband and wife.”

All the guests cheer loudly as Neil lifts Eva’s veil, cups his hands around her face and kisses her. When he pulls away, he sees Eva’s eyes shining. “Not bad,” she whispers to him, in  a sarcastic tone. When they both turn to face the front, Neil elbows her a little bit. Eva smiles and glances at him for a moment.

They laugh as the groomsmen and bridesmaids pull out gold confetti poppers and sprinkle them with the confetti.

* * *

“Are you ready for our first dance, m’lady?” Neil extends his hand out towards Eva, who was sitting next to her family, when the lights had dimmed and the DJ had introduced the two of them to come out onto the floor.

“Call me m’lady again and I will divorce you.”

“You won’t, you love me too much.”

“That, and it’s expensive,” Eva responds with a smile. Neil frowns good naturedly.

“Oh, come on. Dance with me.”

Eva allows herself to be pulled up by Neil, leaving her family who all turn to face towards the floor. Neil turns the ‘dragging Eva’s forearm’ into ‘holding Eva’s hand’ as they get closer towards the floor. They step onto the middle of the floor, holding each other close as the song turns on. Eva looks confused for a few seconds, then looks up at Neil, eyebrow raised but still smiling. “You chose ‘You Were Meant For Me’ by Jewel? Really? How sappy are you?” Neil blushes. ‘You told me you liked this song.” Eva, smiling, leans in close to Neil, moving her arms to his back and resting her head on his shoulder. “I do like this song.”

Eva and Neil stayed on the floor throughout the whole song, swaying with each other and keeping each other as close as possible.

* * *

It was nearing the end of the reception, which meant that it was time for Neil and Eva to cut their wedding cake. The cake was 3 tiers tall, the bottom tier chocolate (Neil and Eva’s shared favorite), second tier vanilla (they both decided that they needed something basic for anyone to enjoy), and the final, smallest one, carrot cake. Eva took it upon herself to show Neil that carrot cake can be delicious if cooked by the right person.

They had done the sappy thing where they both held onto the knife while cutting into the cake; Neil playfully elbowing her, trying to get her to mess up, while Eva laughed.

When they had both gotten their slices onto their plate, Eva said, “Do you want to do that really cheesy thing where the couples shove the cake in the other person’s face?”

Neil tried to remain as straight faced as possible. “I have no idea what you’re talking about.” Eva took this moment as a teaching lesson for Neil, not noticing the grin growing on his face. “Sometimes, at weddings, when the betrothed are cutting their cake, they ball up some of the cake in their-”

Eva was cut off from the rest of her sentence as Neil had picked his slice of the cake in his hand and shoved it into Eva’s face. She looked confused for a few seconds, then looked back up at Neil with steely determination, a sly smile on her face. “Oh, you are so paying for that one, Watts.” Neil was about to correct her, saying that technically today, they were both Watts, but got interrupted because of the cake that was thrown in his face.

Eva had another fistful of cake, laughing, and Neil went to grab another part of his slice, when they were interrupted by a flash in front of both of them. They lower their pieces of cake and turn towards the bright flash, seeing a smiling Charlie holding her phone. “Oh, sorry! You two just looked so cute so I thought I might as well get a picture, right?”

Neil was about to say something along the lines of ‘that’s alright,’ but was once again interrupted by the act of cake being shoved in his face. He turned to the Eva laughing beside him. “You’re paying for that one too, Watts!” Neil said, as he picked up Eva, now laughing even louder, and slung her over her shoulder. She playfully hit him, yelling, “I swear, Neil, put me down!” if she could get it out between bursts of laughter. Neil was smiling too, and Charlie continued to take multiple pictures of the newlywed’s shenanigans.

* * *

Most people had already filed out at this point. Only Eva’s family, the groomsmen, the bridesmaids and a few stragglers were left. It was time for the final dance.

“You picked this final one too, yeah?”

Neil looked at Eva. “I absolutely did. And you’re gonna love it.”

Eva rolled her eyes in a good natured way.

The DJ introduced the final song, saying it was almost time to pack up, as Neil stood up from his chair and once again tugged on Eva’s arm to get her to follow him.

“I’ll stand up if I find out it’s a good song.”

“Alright, well, I guess you’ll just have to watch me out there, alone, busting some pretty awesome moves on the dance floor.”

“So you do admit it’s a bad song?”

Neil sighs while smiling, as he makes his way to the dance floor. He stands in a pop punk boy band pose while waiting for the song to start, making Eva giggle. The first beginning notes of the song start, as Neil starts to dance horribly. He watches Eva put her head in her hands while laughing, causing Neil to smile.

On the loudspeakers, Come on Eileen by Dexys Midnight Runners was playing.

Whenever the lyric, ‘come on Eileen!’ played, Neil sang ‘come on Eva!’ loudly over it. Eva turned bright red from the embarrassment of her husband, but was smiling nonetheless.

Neil had stayed out there for about 30 seconds, starting to get worried that Eva wasn’t joking when she said she wouldn’t join him. But when he turned around, and he saw Eva standing up from her chair, smiling and shaking her head, with a glint in her eyes-

He saw his whole future.

‘Love is Blind’ Star Lauren Speed Wants Brown Girls To Know THIS About Finding Your Soul Mate (Exclusive)

TheYBF.com caught up with “Love Is Blind” stars Lauren Speed and Cameron Hamilton and - after binging this mostly foolywang material of a show - we love them even more. Find out the message Lauren has for brown girls about finding their soul mate and more inside…

SPOILER ALERT! If you haven’t watched “Love Is Blind” yet, this post contains spoilers.

Is Love really Blind? Ask Mrs. Hamilton!

Lauren Speed and Cameron Hamilton (above, spreading their love all over NYC while doing press) quickly became fan favorites on everyone’s newest Netflix obsession, “Love Is Blind.” And y'all, we had to suffer through A LOT of foolishness from their castmates to watch their love story blossom. Still recovering from Jessica and Amber and everyone in between.

The series picked a group of men and women, put them in a house and let them go on “blind dates” to see if anyone could find true love based on an emotional connection. That’s right, they couldn’t see each other while “dating.” They would go into these cozy pods and build connections with one another by conversing through a wall. They never saw each other. Before the time was up, they had to decide if they wanted to get engaged with someone they connected with and then they would walk down the aisle weeks later to say, “I Do.”

We were on hand to watch the Weddings (the final episodes) with the cast in Atlanta, so we got to ask the pressing questions we needed to know after damn near throwing our wine and phone at the TV every other episode.

Yup, The Hamiltons (adorbs!) are still living happily ever after.  And thank God at least one couple made sense on this show.

While most of the couples didn’t last, there were two couples who actually tied the knot: Lauren Speed married Cameron Hamilton and Amber Pike married Matt Barnett (that last couple was and still is a DOOZY).

We can't lie, we were shocked to see Sex & Sephora Amber & Barnett tie the knot and still be together chile.

During the show, Lauren shared how Cameron was the first white man she had ever been with. Meanwhile, Cameron shared he was in a serious relationship for years with a black woman before Lauren, so he was well aware of the struggles an interracial couple would face.

On the show, Lauren said she wanted to be as authentic as possible – even down to her wearing her bonnet in the bed with him at night – because she really wanted to see if this “experiment” would work.

Well, it did for her (also because she's a WHOLE catch, and so is he). And now she’s dropping gems, specifically to brown girls like her, about finding your soul mate.

YBF correspondent Erena caught up with Mr. & Mrs. Hamilton during the series finale screening in Atlanta and here’s what she told us:

Take notes ladies.

        View this post on Instagram

                  Right before this experience, I was just at the point where I had given up on the fairytale. Feeling like we sell little girls these dreams of a Prince Charming that doesn’t really exist. Clearly God had the last laugh. I was open minded entering this experience honestly never expecting to fall in love and become the happiest I’ve ever been all while being recorded for the world to see. When I said Cameron looked like a Prince I meant it... he to me embodied everything I had dreamed of in my fairytale... Kind, smart, loving, selfless, brave could make me laugh and cry all in one conversation... but most importantly made me feel valued and loved. Of course like anything in life we are humans and not without struggle. But as you mature you learn that the struggles are what strengthen you and help you realize what needs more care. Im excited to continue this next chapter with you Mr. Hamilton. Us against the world. Bonnie and Clyde (minus the shoot up) #LoveIsBlind currently streaming on @Netflix @lajoyphotographyllc

  "Love Is Blind" star Carlton Morton was also in the mix. He became a breakout star of the show after he waited until AFTER he proposed to Diamond to tell her he was a bisexual man. The timing was extrmeely off and his excuses about why he waited to tell the woman he claimed to wanted to spend his life with were, to put it mildly, trash. THEN, he had the audacity to demean and degrade her as she was explaining to him why she was upset that he waited to reveal something that's a huge part of who he is and being her potential partner. Needless to say, she dipped on his a** - while quoting Beyonce's "Don't Hurt Yourself" - and never looked back.

Now, he claims he's no longer doing press because no one has been supporting him:

                  Thanks for the 3 of y’all who supported me in this. I feel alone and don’t want any of this life anymore. I’m fighting ALONE. And it HURTS.

  Hmph.

During the screening, TheYBF.com also spoke with married couple Amber & Barnett and how they felt right before the wedding - especially when Amber thought Barnett didn't want to marry her. Formerly engaged couple Damian Powers & Giannina Gibelli (he called it off at the alter!) were also in attendance and they shared how they're moving forward.

Peep all the clips below:

The Internet is ALL IN for the show and has been reacting to scenes from the episodes on social media.  And by reacting, we mean gagging.  Below are some reactions:

slams fist on table

this is beautiful and thank u for sharing apol <3, but bc I LOVE FLUFF, IM ADDING ON STUFF SO I DONT HAVE TO DEAL WITH ANGST FEELINGS

YES, I THROW MY SEVENTEEN BOTTLES OF FEELINGS UNDER MY BED AND NEVER DEAL WITH THEM 

Okay, so let’s say Khun got married to a woman from a rich family (some 10  great families last name), it’s an arranged marriage he didn’t want to be in anyway (neither party wants to). Bam is single, one or two years younger than Khun. Bam works at the coffee shop Khun takes him to actually bc I’m cheesy like that, and Bam always makes Khun’s fav drink from now on (Idk any coffee names or whatnot, so that’s up to your imagination) and Bam makes it best. Khun starts to go more and more frequently, and they build up a gr9 friendship with lots of flirting ofc. 

Khun and his present-wife literally don’t get along as well, there’s pressure to have a baby to continue the pure bloodline, and well, even though they both don’t get along well, they both know they couldn’t give a flying paracule about the bloodline crap. Also, wife is bi, Khun is gay just because. Actually, Khun is moron-bamsexual, Bam is khunsexual. change my mind. nah dont actually hehe :D It’s not going to be a toxic marriage even though they don’t get along with each other; it’s a business deal between the two. Both of them don’t really care anymore about family expectations, and they have a divorce; family goes wild, too bad bc they elope with their respective partners and only keep in contact with the relatives they actually liked. 

Back to khunbam buildup, one day when it’s a slow day, Bam and Khun are talking at a booth (Shibisu’s covering for Bam because he ships them and bc he’s a gr9 dad), Bam has to go back to the counter after they talk for a few hours, but his apron is untied and Khun ties it for him but the straps r too long so Khun has to circle it around Bam’s waist once first and they’re really close together and there’s a lot of blushing,,,Khun gives Bam a hug from behind bc they were talkin about some deep stuff, more blushing, its very cute

Few days after, Khun tells Bam he got a divorce and explains the situation to Bam, and Khun asks Bam if they can take it slow and start dating maybe, Bam is surprised and is also like, dang my fantasy was fulfilled says YES ofc,,,Rak, Bam’s boss, overhears bc he’s a nosy croc, lets Bam off from work early, and they’re standing in front of the coffee shop, not wanting to say goodbye to each other. 

Few months later, they’re having one of their after-work convos again outside the coffee shop. When the sky gets dark, and they both have to go their respective ways, Khun asks if he can crash at Bam’s place bc he doesn’t want to go back to his house he shared with his ex-wife which is a mansion and all fancy and he’s sick of it, and Bam says yes...(FYI Bam has queen-size bed, notice bed is singular) 

Next day when they wake up tangled up and very, very close with each other, Bam says “If I could wake up everyday like this, I’d be living my dream” and Khun blushes like hell, then kisses Bam and says that Bam is his dream and everything he’s always wanted

AND THEY LIVE HAPPILY EVER AFTER. 

Khunbam love story of fated but not destined where Khun met Bam 2 weeks after getting married.

Bam running after him one night when he accidentally dropped his wallet. He asked him for coffee as gesture of appreciation, and grew up liking and spending time with him after that.

SHIP NAME: Renmus. (But everyone just calls you Mrs. Moony)  

WHO KISSED WHO FIRST: You | Him

WHO SAID I LOVE YOU FIRST:  You | Him

WHO IS MORE PROTECTIVE: You | Him

HEADACANONS: 

so like I feel like y’all would be couple goals (which only hurts my Remus loving heart slightly) 

Like you guys are the best support system duo

People need advice- they go to the wise couple; People need a favor- they go to the couple who somehow can pull strings with everyone??

And somehow, you both become the ‘mom and pop’ type couple. 

Which is slightly strange because neither of you act too motherly or fatherly

But Remus suspects it is because you both have been through a lot together.

But that doesn’t mean y’all don’t fight

Because we all know that you guys can bicker like a married couple because “Remus, no, I am positive that you have to use the dragon horn for that.” - “Renee, for the last time you have to use the dragon blood.” (it was really the liver, but Lily would never get in the middle of your bickering.)

and both of you have bad days (and sometimes bad weeks)

But you use it to your advantage in your relationship, and somehow come out stronger because of it

Because, Remus knows just when you need a good hug and when to just let you be for a bit. He respects your boundaries, and never pushes. 

And you know just how to get right through the wall he puts up sometimes with a simple kiss or touch

James and Sirius are honestly kind of scared by how well you know each other (better than you know yourselves, they’re sure)

Speaking of the boys, they adore you with Remus. 

Sirius is very happy, and as your certified best friend (yes, he calls himself that), he must approve of everyone you date. 

Ugh, Renee and Remus would be couple goals and honestly breaks my heart. (in the best way)

CHECK UNDER THE CUT FOR THE LIL EXTRA THING, DOLL!

BLURB: (Whoops?)

Laying down on Remus’ bed, you waited for the boys to return from their late night sneak out. You were sure that they were up to some sort of mischief, as they couldn’t possibly be doing anything else at this hour. The four boys were constantly up to something, and one of these days you knew it was going to backfire. You had to just wait for their return to hear about the next prank they were most likely trying to pull on someone. 

Sighing deeply, you rolled over and sank deeper into his sheets. They smelled strongly of Remus, a comforting scent you have grown to love over the years. It smelled like home. 

Slowly, you started drifting off, and blinked slowly to try and keep your eyes from drooping. It was a long day, and you just wanted Remus to cuddle with. Glancing over at the clock, you checked the time. You really wanted to stay up long enough for Remus to come back. Truth be told, it was always a lot harder sleeping without him near; a thought you had yet to admit to yourself even if you knew it was true. You refused to seem clingy. As an young witch, you prided yourself on not being dependent on primarily anyone. Although, after long days like these, you often felt your ideals crumbling as you yearned for your boyfriend’s comforting embrace. 

You did not remember falling asleep, only the slight shuffle of the bed sheets rustling that woke you and the pull as you were now flush against someone. 

“So, was it the Slytherin common room, or Filch’s office?” You asked sleepily. 

He chuckled softly and kissed the back of your head firmly. “Neither. Just go back to sleep, love. I didn’t mean to wake you.”

“I was up.” A blatant lie, but you didn’t want to go back to sleep yet. 

“Sure you weren’t. I’ll tell you in the morning. Sleep now.” Another kiss, placed on your exposed shoulder. 

You smiled softly and nodded, reaching down and interlacing your fingers in his. “M’kay. G’night Moony.”

“Good night, Renee. Love you.” 

 Remus took in a deep breath and smiled as he listened to your breathing slow, a clear indication that you had fallen back asleep. He thought back to the fluttering in his heart when he walked in and saw you sleeping peacefully in his bed, obviously waiting for him to return with the boys. 

Pulling you slightly closer in his arms, he relaxed quickly. You always had that effect on him, and he loved it. Still not all too tired, he laid there for quite some time just listening to your soft, rhythmic breathing. He had been out with the boys planning, and was still slightly wired for the big surprise tomorrow. He wasn’t pulling a prank on any house, but rather it was a surprise for you as your anniversary was coming up. You were never one for big displays so you grew wary on the days leading up to any anniversaries or birthdays. So, he chose to surprise you a week early so you didn’t suspect him of anything. 

Slowly, he felt his eyes droop slightly and he fought for them to stay open just a little bit longer. He wanted to commit this moment to memory. The warmth of having you pulled flush against him. How your hair tickled his neck slightly. The sweet smell of your shampoo calming him. Yet, he fought in vain. His long night, and the calming feeling coursing through him left him contentedly sleepy. He closed his eyes and fell asleep, happily awaiting waking up next to you come morning.
