you can't tell but our shoes are matching
comments
drreid: I told you to caption it "Matchy, matchy" but whatever, we're still cute.
penelope_meow: THIS IS SO CUTE I SHIP
y/u/n: @penelope _meow you must be one of Spencer's work friends, the technical analyst
"Spencer did your work friends find out about us?" you asked.
“They did, I guess our technical analyst-“
“Penelope,” you cut him off.
"Yes, Penelope, she saw that I commented on your picture, which I almost never do, and she looked at the post and then stalked your account," Spencer explained.
"Can I meet them now?" you asked, knowing yes would be your answer. Spencer never said no to you.
"There is a dinner at Rossi's tonight," Spencer said. "I was going to ditch it, but if you want to meet the team I can tell Dave we're coming."
"Yes we are going," you said. "I need to shower, I'll be out in like ten minutes."
In the BAU groupchat
y/n and I are coming to dinner tonight
Penelope: OMG FINALLY
Dave: Good! I made extra pasta!
Jennifer: I can't wait to meet her!
You walked out of the shower and saw Spencer smiling at his phone, "What are you smiling at?"
"My friends are excited to meet you," Spencer said.
"I'm feeling anxious," you said honestly. "What should I wear?"
"Wear that new black dress you got," Spencer said.
"Are you sure you want me to wear that?" You asked honestly. "I mean it is pretty scandalous for me to just be meeting your team."
"Derek has been making fun of me for being a virgin for years" Spencer explained. "I want them to know I have a sexy girlfriend that I sleep with nightly." You laughed and walked into your shared bedroom and changed. You walked out ready to leave.
"Spence, we should leave now," you said.
"Wow," Spencer began. "Maybe, you should change."
"Spencer Walter, I am not changing" you said. "I knew this was going to happen, I am not changing. Don't make a fool out of yourself. We are leaving." You were freaking out. You had never met Spencer's team and you knew they were going to be critical. They were his best friends.
You stepped out of Spencer car and looked at David's house, well mansion, "Wow."
"Just wait until you see whats on the inside," Spencer laughed. You walked up to the front of the house shaking. You were so nervous and Spencer also made you late. Spencer knocked on the door and you heard the noise from inside the house stop and people walking to the door. The door opened and six familiar people stood smiling at the door.
"Hello," Spencer said. "Team this is my girlfriend, y/n this is my team."
"Hi," you said softly as David took you inside.
"Can you guys not be so awkward, try not to scare her off. Jesus Christ," Spencer whisper-yelled at the team.
"Sorry Pretty Boy, but we are just excited to see Spencer's hot new girlfriend," Derek said.
"Don't call my girlfriend hot," Spencer said. "I know she is." Smirking, Spencer walked away to his girlfriend who was talking to Aaron and David.
"So y/n, Spencer told us you are a teacher," Aaron said.
"Yeah I'm an English teacher, I have a Phd in Literature," you responded.
"Spencer never told us you had a Phd," David said.
"I don't talk to many people about it, especially since I'm a high school English 9 teacher," you said quietly.
"Well, y/n, I have a seven year old, and he is not the best reader," Aaron began. "Maybe you could help him out."
"I would love to, but don't be too worried if he's not a strong reader, all kids read at different paces," you said feeling Spencer's arm around your waist. "Not everyone is Spencer Reid. I couldn't even read properly until I was nine, all the words were jumbled because I was so stressed about reading properly."
"Well lets eat," David said. "The pasta is going to get cold." You all walked over to the table sitting down. You sat between David and Spencer.
"So y/n," JJ began passing around a salad bowl. "How did you and Spencer meet?"
"Well we were guest lecturing at the same class," The team looked at you strangely. "Because of my background in literature, I helped sex crimes with a case that had to do with poetry." They nodded in understanding. "So we were lecturing and after the class we were talking because Spencer made this super silly joke about Romeo and Juliet, which thinking about it was a very strange dark humor. But I found it funny so I asked him to coffee and basically we talked about books and why a high school English teacher was helping the FBI." The team smiled.
"I'm glad he met you y/n," Derek said. "I haven't seen Pretty Boy this happy in a long time."
"Pretty boy?" you asked.
"It's a nickname I made up for him when he first joined the team," Derek said as the team snickered.
"So that must be why Spencer got super weirded out when I started calling him that," you said.
"No way, pretty girl calls pretty boy, pretty boy?" Penelope asked.
"Yes and no," you explained. "Now it is mainly a joke, but I do say it because it is very true." The team laughed while Spencer blushed profusely.

If I Fell For You (Part 14) - Keep Close
Summary: The Ackles have the Padalecki’s over for dinner and let it slip that they’re engaged. Things seem to be going well but the anniversary of the accident is coming up and the reader comes up with the Ackles taking their first vacation together as a means of distracting Jensen as well reconnecting with Ray...
Masterlist
Pairing: Jensen x nanny!reader
Word Count: 4,800ish
Warnings: language, mention of sex, mention of a dead parent/spouse, anxiety
A/N: Please enjoy and let me know what you think!
________
“I’m stuffed,” said Jensen that night, the kids running around playing soccer in the yard after dinner.
“I need that chicken recipe,” said Jared.
“I’ll write it down for you guys,” you said, sitting back in your chair. “You can do it with breast too if you like that better.”
“I want exactly this like, everyday from now on,” said Jared. Gen rolled her eyes and Jensen pulled out his phone. “Want me to take a pic?”
“I don’t need your freakishly long arms just yet,” chuckled Jensen. He turned around and took one of the four of you at the table before handing off his phone. “Mind getting one of us?”
“Your mom harassing you for engagement photos already?” asked Gen.
“By the time we were leaving they were both asking for photos and being obnoxious. Better than they were though,” said Jensen, smiling beside you. Jared took a few more and handed the phone back.
“I still can’t believe your parents would act like that,” said Gen. “I mean obviously I’m super happy it got fixed but that’s so unlike them.”
“They made a mistake is all,” you said with a smile. “I don’t know about you guys but I’m going to finish this beer in the pool.”
“I think I’ll join you,” said Jared. He stood up and had a look on his face you caught too late. Before you knew it he had you picked up and was jogging over to the deep end and jumping in with you.
“Jared!” you said when you popped up. He giggled and swam off to the shallow end. “After I helped pick up the plates ya big lug.”
“We got it,” said Jensen, carrying over two beer cans and handing them to you. “We’ll join you guys in a few.”
About ten minutes later Jensen was leaning against the side of the pool in his bright red swim trunks, handing you the other half of his cookie cake piece.
“So any big plans for the wedding?” asked Jared, sat on the pool steps with Gen.
“I have a thought,” you said, turning to Jensen. “I haven’t discussed it with Jensen yet.”
“Vegas. Shotgun wedding,” he laughed. You shook your head and he grinned. “You’re thinking the farm, aren’t you.”
“What do you think? It could be outdoor or indoor, whatever it needs to be depending on the weather.”
“I’d love that,” he said, giving you a squeeze. “That’d be perfect for us.”
“You own a farm?” asked Jared.
“Yeah, ten minutes from the brewery.”
“Dudes. You can open bar with your own beer. Oh and dibs on being a groomsmen.”
“Like that wasn’t gonna happen,” said Jensen.
“I don’t know on that,” you said. Jared’s face fell and you shook your head. “Sorry. I didn’t mean that you wouldn’t be one. Of course you would. I just don’t have a lot of close girlfriends. I think it’d be weird if Jensen had a ton and…”
“I don’t think it’s weird,” said Gen. “We didn’t have an even number at our wedding.”
“We got time to figure that stuff out,” said Jensen, holding your waist. You finished the last bite of cookie and hummed.
“So you two having a kid?” asked Jared. Gen whacked his chest and he shrugged.
“Jesus, Jare. Don’t ask that.”
“They’re our best friends and godparents to our children...although I guess Y/N didn’t know that she inherited that until now but come on, I know you’re wondering too.”
“Shut up,” said Gen, crossing her arms. “Obviously if they decide, they’ll tell us when it happens.”
“Yeah, I think there’ll be at least one,” you laughed. Gen lit up and turned to Jared.
“Last time they said they were having a baby guess what we did? I can’t handle no more babies,” said Jared.
“Can you even get that thing up anymore?” teased Jensen, sipping on his beer.
“You’re one to talk, old man.”
“That shit still works just fine.”
“Just fine?” shot back Jared.
“Oh my God. You’re both good at sex. Y/N be grateful you’ve missed this same conversation over and over for the past sixteen odd years,” said Gen.
“I’m still taller,” said Jared with a smirk.
“I can last longer,” said Jensen with one of his own. They narrowed their eyes at one another and Jared stood up.
“Go wrestle on the grass,” groaned Gen. They both huffed and got out of the pool before starting to playfully wrestle. “See, what you may not realize yet is you have another child right there.”
“Yeah but he’s hot,” you said, Gen laughing while you sat beside her. “Do you guys really talk about sex with each other?”
“Yes and no. The boys are you know, boys. They’d combust if they didn’t tease each other. I wouldn’t say there’s like, intimate details or anything ever shared. They’re both pretty private about that sort of thing. Dee and I would talk but more so say we had fun the night before. Shit we probably talked about sex toys more than anything.”
You stopped mid sip of your beer and she laughed.
“When your guy is thousands of miles away for that long out of the year, you gotta get off on your own. You get pretty good at phone sex too. You’re lucky. Jensen won’t be staying away so long ever again he said.”
“No, no. But uh...before Jensen I’d had the same boyfriend forever and he was as vanilla as could be. We didn’t do that stuff really together.”
“I can text you some links to stuff. It’s not like you have to go in some scary store or anything. It’s discrete and I think a small vibe would be great to start with. You can use it during sex or foreplay or whatever. Just you know, have fun.”
“Jensen and I kinda got busted by the cops a week or so back for...activities in the backseat,” you said. She started to laugh and you groaned. “Thankfully it was his friend that caught us so he let us off the hook but...it was kinda fun.”
“Good,” she said, sighing as Jensen pinned Jared down. “Hey so yeah about that wedding thing. Jared had two more groomsmen than I had girls. It doesn’t have to be matchy, matchy, you know?”
“I know. I don’t know if…” you trailed off. “I lost my friend group when I broke it off with my last boyfriend. We’d been together for over ten years and I kept turning down his proposals and they didn’t like that. I have some nanny friends but not a lot and no one I’m really close to. I don’t know if I’d even get more than five people to come for me. Everyone else is his family and friends and I didn’t think about that until just now. I mean what would they think, seeing that? I don’t know if I even want anyone there now.”
“I think what they’d see is someone they care about marrying someone he loves. Just because we’re Jensen’s friends doesn’t mean we’re not your friends too. I know we’re still getting to know each other but we’ll be as close as those two eventually. Ruthie was texting me and we’re having a girls night the next convention in Dallas. You literally have a built in crew ready to go from the show, the girls and the guys. You are so coming with me to the next night I have with my local girlfriends and you got our family. You even got Dee’s parents. You have more than you know, sweetie.”
“I never had a best friend growing up except for my mom. Until Jensen,” you said. “I’ve never really been good at the friend thing.”
“Were you bullied in school?” she asked quietly.
“Don’t tell anyone besides Jared but my dad wasn’t a good person. He hurt me and so I was afraid of getting in trouble so I didn’t talk to other kids all that much until I got old enough to understand what he was doing was wrong and that’s how I ended up being adopted.”
“I’m sorry.”
“Can’t do anything about it now. But I can have it not control my life too. I’ve been pretty good since I was nine in that department. My mom dying sucked and things have been up and down but I like where I am now. This is easily the happiest I’ve ever been in my life.”
“Jens’s not perfect.”
“I know. But he’s good enough. He gave me a certain confidence to live my life, like really live it.”
“He’s alright,” she smiled. “You know I have an idea about this bridesmaids thing you might like.”
“You?”
“Oh I would for sure but I meant more so I know two little girls that wouldn’t mind. Maybe there’s a boy too,” she said.
“I’m gonna need you to be my wedding planner at this rate,” you said.
“Job accepted,” she said. “I say we go farmhouse modern style.”
“Gen. I got engaged like two weeks ago. We have time,” you said. “We don’t even have a date.”
“At the very least can we go dress shopping?” she asked.
“I’m going to regret this,” you sighed as Jensen stepped back in the water.
“Get yourself a stronger man, Padalecki. That one is weak,” he said. Jared followed him right after and went to tackle him when Gen caught his arm.
“Boys, not in the water,” she said.
“Chicken?” asked Jensen.
“Losers pick up the tab for when we go out this weekend for dinner. Deal?” asked Jared.
“Well in that case, you’re on.”
Two Weeks Later
“Jensen,” you said, carding your fingers through his hair while he absentmindedly burnt some eggs. “You okay babe?”
“Yeah. We ought to pack up the kids, get on the road soon if we’re gonna hit the beach.”
“I’m gonna drive, okay?” you asked. He nodded and you got out the eggs again, making up a new batch. “Do you want to talk to Ray?”
“Why?” he asked quietly, leaning back against the counter.
“Anniversaries of traumatic events can be triggering,” you said. “My mom died two days ago. Well, you know what I mean.”
“Why didn’t you say anything?” he asked.
“Because it doesn’t trigger me anymore. But it did and this is the first time...the first one is the roughest.”
“Yeah,” he said. “I ought to talk to him.”
“Eat your breakfast. I’ll give him a call and get the kids ready while you guys talk, okay?” you said.
“Thank you,” he said. You kissed his cheek and hugged him before you went upstairs for your phone. It rang a few times but Ray finally answered, noise in the background.
“Y/N. Everything alright?” he asked.
“Hey. Yeah. We’re...we’re pretty good. Today’s the first anniversary of Jensen’s-”
“Ah. I understand.”
“Listen, I know it’s a Sunday and you don’t work the weekends but would you mind talking to him for a few minutes? We’re going down to Galveston for the week in a bit but he’s off this morning.”
“I’d talk to him even if he wasn’t your fiance but especially because of that. You know we’re actually down here ourselves for a few days. Just got down yesterday. If you guys are around...maybe we could get together for that swim.”
“I’d like that. You okay?” you asked.
“I always get a little down on the day but Sarah understands. You understand.”
“Yeah. I’m gonna put Jensen on and um, maybe we can meet at Arillo’s for dinner?”
“We got a reservation there ourselves tonight. How many in your crew? Five? I’ll call and ask for an update.”
“Yeah there’s five of us. Um, Ray?”
“Yeah?”
“I’m sorry for being so horrible as a teenager after mom. You loved her as much as I did.”
“Thank you but you don’t have to apologize for that. You got too much pain in your life. I’m glad you found the good stuff too.”
“Are Geroge and Taylor there?” you asked.
“Yeah kids are here. Taylor’s got some internship but she does it online half the day and George is some research assistant thing for one of his professors but same kinda deal. We leave them to work in the morning while Sarah and I have some fun. Want me to let them know you’re coming?”
“Probably a good idea. Not sure how they’ll react,” you said, Jensen poking his head into the bedroom. “Here’s Jensen.”
“Okay, sweetie. We’ll see you guys soon.”
You handed the phone to Jensen and finished up packing while he sat on the bed. You tried to leave him be but couldn’t help listening in.
“Yeah I’m anxious...I don’t want her to drive down today...you know why...I guess...probably...I don’t want to be freaking out for three hours in the car...because it’s today...I know...I know...so I have to suck it up...I don’t want to have a panic attack in the car with the kids...no I haven’t...I’m scared I will though...yeah...I understand...dude that sounds so stupid...that’s not medically anything...no I don’t have my doctorate...I don’t wanna ask her...I said I don’t want to, not that I wouldn’t...I know...I will...maybe I’ll try that too...yeah, Y/N said the first year is the roughest too...I’ll let her be in charge until we get down to the beach today. I think I’ll feel better after the car...yeah I kinda figured out what she was doing planning a trip on today of all days...I need it...really? Yeah, I’m looking forward to meeting up down there too...thanks Ray.”
You finished with your suitcase and had his open for him when he walked into the closet. He swallowed and handed your phone back.
“All good?” you asked.
“Ray thought it might be a good idea if I had something of yours with me on the way down, to keep on me since I’m...anxious this morning about being in a car.”
“Something of mine…” you said, looking at your side of the closet. “Why don’t you pack up and I’ll get you something before the road, okay?”
He nodded and twenty minutes and about three bathroom trips later the SUV was packed up. You hopped behind the wheel, Jensen tapping the arm rest from the passenger seat.
“Here,” you said, reaching into your pocket, pulling out a bracelet. It was fabric, the kind made from craft string, white, rusty orange and a light tan color mixed together.
“I’ve never seen this,” he said as he held it between his fingers.
“I got it on vacation with mom and Ray. Last one we went on,” you said, tying it around his wrist. “You have it.”
He stared at you as you turned the engine on, watching you backout.
“This is too important for me to take,” he said quietly.
“It’s fabric. I want you to have it, okay?” you said, pulling onto the street and closing the gate. He nodded and you turned the radio on low. “Coffee run?”
“Yeah. Coffee sounds good right about now.”
You were only about fifteen or so minutes away from the beach house you’d rented. The kids were either taking naps in the backseats or watching a movie on the ipad. You risked a glance at Jensen, his fingers absently toying with the bracelet while he looked out the window, the radio on low.
“How you doing big guy?” you asked as you pulled off to the exit ramp.
“Pretty good now,” he said softly.
“Mind navigating for me?” you asked. He hummed and picked up your phone from where it sat in the console the past few hours. About twenty minutes or so you were stretching outside of the car, Jensen opening the front door of the house with the code you’d been given. The kids climbed out and were good about each taking their own backpacks while you and Jensen gathered up the rest.
“Come here,” he said, leaving the bags by his feet and kissing you against the side of the car. You grinned and he picked you up in a big squeezing hug. “I love you.”
“I know,” you said. He set you down and kissed you again. “You seem like yourself again.”
“I needed that push, get over that fear. But now, I can enjoy my day with my girl and my kiddos and apparently we are having dinner with Ray and his family tonight?” he asked.
“If that’s alright,” you said.
“One hundred percent,” he said, Arrow jumping up and down nearby. “Honey, go use the bathroom in the house if you have to go.”
“No I’m excited!” she said. “Can we go play on the beach? Pretty please?”
“Hm, give daddy fifteen minutes and then we can go?” he asked. She turned to you and grinned.
“We’ll go really soon sweetie. I promise.”
“Hey guys,” said Jensen an hour later, the five of you down on the beach and mostly watching them build a sandcastle together. “Y/N and I want to tell you something.”
“Is it that you guys are getting married?” asked JJ, patting some sand with her shovel. You glanced at Jensen and he shrugged. “You were talking to Aunt Gen and Uncle Jared about it last night, right?”
“Well, yes we were,” said Jensen. “I suppose we were a little louder than we thought. But yes, Y/N and I have decided to get married. We’re not sure when exactly but in the next year I can say.”
“So we have a mom again?” asked Arrow, fixing her corner of the castle that kept caving in.
“Well you guys are kinda lucky. You’ll get two moms,” he said. “How’s that sound?”
“We missed mom’s day,” she said with a sigh. “Right?”
“We’ll catch it next year, promise,” said Jensen. “Do you guys have any questions or anything you want to say?”
“Do we call you mom now?” asked JJ.
“You guys call me whatever you want,” you said.
“Can we call you mom?” she asked. You nodded and she went back to playing in the sand.
“Anything else guys?” asked Jensen.
“Can I get a giraffe?” asked Zeppelin while he figured out how much water to add to the sand to get it to stick together.
“No sweetie. They wouldn’t fit at our house,” said Jensen.
“Darn it,” he said.
“I can tell you’re all so invested in this topic,” chuckled Jensen.
“Oh! Can my flower girl dress be purple?” asked JJ.
“Your dress can be whatever color you want it to be,” you said.
“Awesome,” she said. “Or black and purple. With lightning stripes.”
“Ah, I knew the classic rock would finally pay off,” said Jensen.
“Maybe Daddy’s suit can be black and white stripes, like a tiger,” you said.
“Like a White Snake music video more like it,” he laughed. “We’ll figure all that stuff out. We wanted to make sure you guys knew was all and if you have any questions or were nervous or anything you know you can ask either one of us.”
“Mom makes you happy again. Of course you gotta marry her!” said Arrow. “Oh and get her a pony. Girls like that.”
“Would you care for a pony, sweetheart?” asked Jensen as he shook his head.
“Are we talking mustang kind of pony?” you asked.
“That’s my girl,” he said, wrapping an arm over your shoulders, kissing your cheek. “Let dad get a picture of you guys. We’re on vacation after all.”
Five Hours Later
“Jensen,” you said, changing into a light summer top and a pair of denim shorts after your shower. He was standing by his suitcase undressed, trailing his finger over his scar. “Honey?”
“A year ago was the worst day of my life and today was a really great one. I get to meet Ray more and even Sarah and the kids who all sound great and...I’m really happy I’m still here to see all this.”
“Me too,” you said, wrapping your arms around him. “Wear your red underwear.”
“Is that a request?”
“I like how you look when you take it off,” you said, gently smacking his ass as you went to go fix your hair.
“I am so grateful I found you,” he said to himself. You smiled and brushed your teeth quickly before checking yourself over and taking a selfie. You sat up on the counter and opened instagram, still silently grateful you’d always had it on private. There was nothing bad on it but Jensen and Jared had tagged you before and all of the comments always seemed to be negative.
“How do I look?” asked Jensen, walking in wearing a short sleeve navy button down and his red underwear.
“So sexy,” you giggled, Jensen digging through his other bag and finding his khaki shorts.
“Can I get away with sneakers and a backwards baseball cap at this restaurant?” he asked.
“Totally. We always eat outside. It’s near the pier,” you said, putting up your post.
“Taking more pictures I can show off of you again?” he asked, grabbing your brush and getting some control of his damp hair back.
“Nobody even sees my instagram hardly,” you said.
“You know the internet knows we’re dating, right.”
“I’m pretty sure your fans still aren’t okay with that fact, even if they know.”
“Oh you’re mistaking the nutjobs for actual fans. The real ones, those guys are cool and nice. I actually got a lot of care packages and things from them last year. Still do. They really are good people. Those other ones that leave nasty comments? Fuck them. That shit don’t bother me anymore.”
“What are you saying?”
“I’m saying family and friends know. Can I show off the woman I love to the world?” You wrapped your legs around his waist and pulled him in front of you, his head cocking.
“Yeah,” you said. “Better late than never.”
“Okay,” he said. “For now though, I’m looking forward to this dinner.”
“I hope it goes well. It’s George and Taylor I’m more worried about. They were kids when I decided to stop coming around. I only knew them maybe two years, if even that. I know they were upset.”
“Give them some credit. Ray raised them too after all.”
“I’m all set!” said Zeppelin, walking into the bathroom with his paw patrol shirt and nothing else on.
“At least I was gonna wear underwear,” chuckled Jensen. “Little dude. Get some undies on and shorts in the next two minutes or else…” he trailed off as he came in and hugged Jensen’s leg.
“I love you, daddy,” he said.
“I love you.”
“Can we get a giraffe now?” he asked. Jensen rolled his eyes and you released him.
“Let’s go finish getting you dressed, buddy.”
“So you guys were Sarah’s fosters?” asked Jensen towards the end of dinner, all three kids passed out asleep in the stroller or on the bench besides you while you picked at your shared dessert. Neither George or Taylor had said much aside from introducing themselves.
“Guys,” said Ray, nudging Taylor. “I’m sorry for our children’s rudeness. I was afraid of this.”
“Shut up,” they both said, Sarah sighing.
“The kids were both big fans of Supernatural. They grew up watching it with me. It was something we bonded over at first in fact,” she said.
“Oh,” said Jensen, a smirk forming on his face. “Sam or Dean girls? George come on buddy, it’s okay.”
“This isn’t happening,” said Taylor, her eyes squeezed shut.
“So you guys don’t want to hear about the movie, gotcha,” he said, both of them snapping their heads up.
“He really is a dork,” you said.
“Movie?” asked George.
“Someday. You can count on it,” said Jensen. “Maybe I’ll go easy on you guys and ask what mom was?”
“You boys are a little young for my tastes but honestly the guy who played John was very attractive,” she said.
“Even I’d hit that,” said Ray, Sarah laughing to herself.
“You can see Ray wins his ladies over with his charm,” you said, glancing at Taylor and George. “Like you guys could literally ask anything you ever wanted about the show and get an unfiltered answer if you want.”
“Did you really keep the car?” asked George. Jensen nodded and held up his finger.
“When we’re back in town, you guys come over and you can take a spin in it,” he said.
“Okay, he’s cool with me,” said George. You cocked your head and he smiled. “That was the car from the show I always told you about.”
“Oh. I thought you were talking about batman or something,” you said, pursing your lips. “Sorry I wasn’t…”
“You always sucked at pretending to be happy,” said Taylor. You looked down and nodded. “We get it. You had to do your own thing.”
“Don’t hate me for leaving?”
“Maybe when we were little,” she said. “But we’re older and we get that you probably felt like a fifth wheel.”
“Yeah. A lot really,” you said. “It worked out though.”
“She’s a Dean girl by the way,” said Ray, cracking up as Taylor whacked his arm.
“Dad! Oh my God no I’m not! I like Sam!” she said.
“Want to talk to him?” grinned Jensen. Her face went red and you heard a quiet chuckle at the table. “You’re right, we’ll save that for in person.”
“You basically are marrying Dean Winchester without like, the trauma,” she said. Jensen tensed up but kept a smile on his face. You knew Ray caught it when he gave him a simple nod.
“Trauma’s not inherently bad,” said Ray. “Everyone at this table has gone through some.”
“I know, dad,” she said quietly. She looked at George and he nodded. “Our parents were in a house fire. So were we. I was five and Georgie was four.”
“She carried him out and went next door for help,” you said.
“I was in a car accident last year,” said Jensen. You turned your head. It wasn’t public knowledge that he was in the car. He’d flat out told you that aside from family and a few friends, no one besides you knew. “I almost died. My wife did but for other reasons. You can still have trauma and a really good life.”
“Very good point, Jensen,” said Ray. “You two rugrats wouldn’t be around if mom and I had moped around in our misery forever.”
“Was he always such a sap?” asked George.
“From the day I met him,” you said, Jensen grabbing your hand under the table. “Would you mind watching the kids for a second?”
“Not at all,” he said. You excused yourself and brought Jensen along with you, walking out to the beach area, the breeze cool but light.
“You alright?”
“Yeah. I can talk about it now. I went from having the worst year of my life to one of the best. Nothing bad’s gonna happen for saying what really happened. I want to let all that shit go and have the rest of that really good life I was talking about.”
“For someone who keeps a lot inside I sure have noticed a difference in you the past few weeks.”
“To quote both of the loves of my life, I gotta let that shit out more regularly,” he said. You smiled and wrapped your arms over his shoulders, giving him a kiss.
“You know that’s what we call growth, babe.”
“I very easily could have gone the opposite way this year.”
“But you didn’t, cause you tried even though it sucks sometimes. I love you but I extra love happy you and you’re definitely a happier guy now than when I met you.”
“So are you, honey,” he said. “Must make a pretty good team or something.”
“Oh yeah, maybe that’s it.”
“We should honestly get like, married or something, you know?” he teased.
“First I have to know though, are you willing to do cookie cake for a wedding cake?”
“I’m willing to make that sacrifice,” he said. “The real questions is, are you willing to deal with the eventual dad bod that will happen as a result?”
“I love this bod, but I don’t love you for this bod,” you said.
“Thank you for today,” he said softly.
“I have no idea what you’re talking about,” you said. He grinned and kissed your cheek, hugging you tightly. “What are best friends for?”
“Everything?”
“Hell yeah they are Ackles.”

Stripped Bare - Chapter 12 (Bryce X MC AU)
Book: Open Heart
Pairing: Bryce X MC (Charlie Hawkins)
Summary: It’s the day of the bachelor and bachelorette parties. How will Bryce react to Charlie being around strippers that aren’t him?
Rating: Mature/18+ (Again nothing explicit, but there is stripping in this one and lots of alcohol consumption)
Word Count: 3457
"My hair is going to be down, so I want everyone else’s hair up," Katelyn dictates to the stylists. "I'm thinking a lower chignon for all of them, but I don’t want them to be too matchy-matchy, so make them a little unique.”
The stylists get to work as Katelyn floats around from chair to chair micromanaging. Katelyn apparently doesn’t trust an unknown stylist for her own hair and is flying in her hair stylist from back home the day before the wedding.
Kyra leans over towards Charlie when Katelyn moves to the other side of the salon to supervise the Sarahs. “Only Katelyn would make her bridesmaids get pre-approval on their hair like this. What a waste of time.”
“Seriously. But at least we have wine!” Charlie holds up her glass, and Kyra clinks hers against it.
Charlie’s stylist works with her natural curls, pulling it back and adding in floral hair piece. Much to Charlie’s surprise, Katelyn approves of it without any revisions, but the same cannot be said for the rest of the girls. After multiple reference pictures are taking, Charlie gets tired of waiting in the salon and goes and sits on a bench outside.
As she takes in the sights and sounds around her, she hears her phone buzz in her purse, pulling it out to see a series of texts in her group chat with Aurora, Sienna, and Jackie.
Sienna: Hello???? We haven't heard from you in days!
Jackie: What Sienna really wants to ask is, have you banged Bryce yet?
Sienna: Jackie!
Aurora: Come on Sienna. You're the one who bet she'd give it up by night two
Charlie: OMG you guys are the worst! No, I am not sleeping with Bryce
Jackie: At least it got you to talk to us finally. So you mean to tell me you've been spending 24/7 with the hottest guy we've ever met and you haven't hit that yet? What a waste. If that were me...
Charlie: Ugh, I'm putting my phone away now
Sienna: Wait!
Sienna: For real though, how are things going?
Charlie starts to type the truth, how she's fallen hard and thinks there's a chance he might feel the same, but then she erases it. If she puts it all out there to her friends, it means she's admitting it to herself as well, and she's still not ready for that.
Charlie: Katelyn is as awful as ever, but Bryce has been a model fake boyfriend. I'm not sure I'd be staying sane without him
Sienna: ❤
Jackie: Oh, you so want him! You better tell us when you finally hook up
Aurora: Yes, please do so these two can finally shut up about it
Charlie: Probably not happening
Sienna: But you're saying there's a chance!
Charlie: SMH. Talk to you guys later
~~~
The girls go straight to lunch from the salon. Charlie checks her phone during a lull in the conversation and sees a text from Bryce.
Bryce: How's it going? Are you missing me terribly yet?
Charlie rolls her eyes but she can't help but smile.
Charlie: Seems you are the one who can't go more than two hours without texting me. Who is missing who here?
Bryce: What can I say? I'm getting used to having you around. What are you doing?
Charlie: Eating lunch. You?
Bryce: I grabbed some lunch on the way back from the gym. Now I'm going to get in the shower.
Charlie: I see
Bryce: Picturing me naked now, aren't you? I can give you a little visual to go with that if you want
Charlie has no idea what he means by that and she’s both curious and afraid to find out. She tries to think up a witty reply to reject his offer, but it’s too late because a photo is already coming through. She glances around the table and shields her phone just in case, and when it fully loads she’s glad she did. The picture is of Bryce taking a selfie in the bathroom mirror, positioned just right that if the bottom of the mirror was any lower, she’d be getting an explicit view. The room suddenly feels about twenty degrees warmer and she fumbles to type her response.
Charlie: OMG Bryce! I’m in public you know
Bryce: That’s why I didn’t show you the rest 😉
Charlie: Very funny. I think I'll be getting my fair share of naked men tonight
Bryce: Hey! You don't need them when you have me
Charlie: Sorry, gotta go! TTYL
Charlie laughs to herself as she decides to put her phone away. She's starting to get looks for being on her phone so much, but she also likes having the upper hand with Bryce for once. She'd figured it was no coincidence Bryce kissed her the way that he did right after finding out there would be strippers at the bachelorette party, and his texts seem to confirm he's at least a little bit jealous. She thinks it's funny he's worried at all about them, but then again, look where she is with the last stripper she met.
They finish up lunch and Kyra and Charlie get a drink together at the bar before getting ready for the party. Charlie makes a point not to check her phone until she gets back to the suite, making herself comfortable on the bed before scrolling through his messages.
Bryce: You're killing me Charlie
Bryce: How about this
Bryce: You can skip any amateur league lap dances or whatever, and I'll give you one when you get back. Since you've already had the best, I'd hate for you to be disappointed by someone else's sub-par performance
Bryce: Deal?
Bryce: I'm headed out on the fishing boat now, so I might not be very available for the rest of the evening. Just be safe and have fun
Charlie is glad she’s alone because she’s probably got the stupidest grin on her face right now. Of course he uses his cocky front to pretend like he’d be doing her a service, but when she reads between the lines, she can’t deny any more that he’s into her. She’s still terrified of what it all means, but she just might be ready to take a risk and find out.
~~~
“Damn, Charlie. You look hot!” Kyra compliments Charlie and her sweetheart neckline little black dress as she boards the party yacht. Katelyn gave strict instructions that all the bridesmaids were to wear black cocktail dresses, so she could stand out in white. At least they didn't have to wear any tacky "bride squad" t-shirts or penis paraphernalia.
“Thanks, you too! You’ve got legs for days!” Charlie remarks regarding Kyra’s short halter dress, and they both giggle.
"So what do you think of this boat? Pretty swanky, huh?"
"Yeah, I guess one good thing about Katelyn's desire to flaunt the family wealth is that we all get to benefit."
Kyra scoffs. "Must be nice to be on the rich side of the family."
"Oh, god, I'm sorry," Charlie apologizes. "My privileged asshole side is showing."
"Nah, you're good." Kyra claps her on the back. "For growing up like you did, you are surprisingly down to earth and relatively normal."
"And as painfully awkward and insecure as the best of them."
"Aww." Kyra pinches her playfully on the cheek. "That's what makes you so lovable. But not that insecurity crap. You are awesome and you should own it.”
Charlie sighs. “That’s the kind of thing Bryce keeps saying to me. Always telling me how amazing I am. It’s nauseating really.”
“Oh stop. If you don’t appreciate that man I will gladly take him off your hands.”
Charlie laughs. “No I’m good. I think I’ll keep him for awhile.” It comes out of her mouth so naturally, like she finally believes it’s a legit possibility rather than a hopeless fantasy.
"So, should we grab a drink?” Kyra shifts her eyes to the bar.
Charlie holds her arm out, as if to escort Kyra. “I thought you’d never ask.”
The boat soon fills up with the remainder of the party guests - the Sarahs, Stephanie, Landry’s other groomsmen’s significant others, and a handful Katelyn's other friends that have just arrived in Jamaica for the wedding. They aren’t all bad, but Kyra and Charlie mainly stick together. As they move from cocktails through dinner, the guests are getting increasingly tipsy, and Stephanie appears to be rethinking her decision to be trapped at sea with a bunch of drunk women.
Charlie heads to the bathroom for a timeout from the noise and the crowd as they head to port to pick up the strippers. She’s proud of how well she’s pacing herself as she’s still determined not to get as drunk as that first night ever again. There’s still no new texts from Bryce on her phone, but then again she never did text him back. She scrolls up to his bathroom selfie to study it again and just looking at it makes her think unspeakable things. The tease is almost better than seeing the whole thing.
Feeling a little brave with a couple of drinks in her, Charlie decides to send a selfie back. She fixes her hair in the mirror and straightens her dress. She’s got a decent amount of cleavage and her push-up bra is doing a fabulous job, but a little more wouldn’t hurt, so she adjusts her cups just so and snaps a picture, sending it off the caption, ‘hope you are having fun!’ Within seconds she can see Bryce is replying back.
Bryce: Woah. What are you doing wearing a dress like that when I’m not there to see you in it?
Charlie: There’s always later...
Bryce: I’m ready to go back to the room now if you are
Is he serious? It's tempting, but for a multitude of reasons, she can’t take him up on that offer even if he means it.
Charlie: But I can’t miss the strippers!
Bryce: You know I can take care of that for you
Charlie: But how do I know you are the best if I have nothing else to compare to?
Bryce: What am I going to do with you?
Charlie: Maybe later you can show me
What's gotten into her? Just yesterday she could hardly look at Bryce without blushing and now she's sending him suggestive text messages.
Bryce: Oh, you bet I will
Well now she's blushing. Charlie splashes some cool water on her face and composes herself, rejoining the group just as the boat pulls up to the dock.
A short time later, two men dressed as law enforcement officers enter the boat. Charlie knows exactly what's going on, but with all the alcohol that's been collectively consumed, it causes a commotion. Charlie and Kyra sit back and laugh as everyone tries to figure out what's going on.
“Oh my god. They are all dumbasses.” Kyra rolls her eyes. “We stopped specifically to pick up the strippers.”
Charlie shakes her head. “This might be more entertaining than the actual show.”
“Ladies, we have a problem here.” The tall one with a Jamaican accent starts as the other shorter one with sandy blond hair pulls something out of his duffel bag. “You’ve started the party without us!”
Suddenly "Get Ur Freak On” starts blasting out of a small portable speaker and the two men tear away their shirts in unison. Once the initial confusion wears off, the drunk women start cheering. The strippers make their way to the makeshift stage area, while the party guests find seats in the chairs that were previously set up around it. Charlie and Kyra sit off as far as possible to the side to avoid being directly in the action.
“Well they aren’t bad-looking at least,” Kyra assesses from afar.
But they aren’t Bryce either. “They’re okay. Neither is really my type though.”
“Well when you have someone as perfect as Bryce, it’s hard to compare. I bet he’d make one hell of a good stripper.” Charlie shoots Kyra a look that in her mind conveys the terror of hitting too close to his secret being out, but Kyra must perceive it as something else. “Sorry, I know I shouldn’t thirst after your boyfriend like that, but I’ve seen the way he can move.”
Charlie laughs nervously. “I’ll suggest it as a backup career if the whole surgeon thing falls through.” She breathes a side of relief that Kyra doesn’t really know his secret, but talking about him makes her think to check her phone again, and sure enough there’s another text from Bryce.
Bryce: Help! Bob is trying to make me keep up with him, and dude is like a professional drinker
Charlie: I doubt he’s forcing drinks down your throat. You can pace yourself
Charlie: Anyway, gotta go. Strippers are here! Charlie takes a quick picture of the shirtless dancers, still with police hats on, and sends it to Bryce before stashing her phone away.
The strippers, or Clive and Dan as they have introduced themselves, continue on to do their stripper thing, getting down to their very tiny underwear with ass cheeks bared. Charlie’s time in the strip club two weeks ago was more than enough exotic dancing for her to see in person for one lifetime, but she is enjoying watching the other women act like fools. In fact, Katelyn seems far more interested in these men than she ever has in Landry, but that’s not surprising. She always figured Katelyn would go for the first available man who could put up with her. Katelyn completed her undergraduate, but her real goal was the Mrs. degree.
Dan comes over towards Charlie with a massage oil slicked chest and encourages her to rub her hands on him to which she politely declines. However, Kyra has no problem jumping right in, and Charlie gives her the side-eye as soon as he moves on.
“What? Just because this is cheesy as hell doesn’t mean we can’t have fun with it. So far the only man I have touched in any way, shape or form on this trip is Bob.” Kyra shudders. “You have Bryce’s abs. Let me have these.”
Charlie chuckles. “You’re right. Feel all the abs. No more judgement from me.”
The men alternate taking paying customers back to the captain’s quarters for brief, private lap dances, and when Kyra is approached by Dan, she takes him up on it. Charlie uses it as an excuse to step outside and check in with Bryce.
Bryce: Dude, cop outfits? That is laaaaaaaame
Charlie: Says the man who dresses up as a surgeon
Roughly two minutes later, Bryce replies back
Bryce: But theirs is fake
Charlie: And yours isn’t?
Bryce: Ive hadd lots to drunk. Bobby can be persusave
Charlie: I can see that. Don’t drink too much more. I don’t think I could carry you home.
Bryce: Don’t worry I fiiine. And rememembre Im the only stripper who gets to give you a lapdance.
Charlie: We’ll see about that
Charlie leaves it at that and heads back inside. What she means is that given the state he seems to be in, she doubts he’ll be in any condition for anything but but bed when they get back. If he interprets it as her teasing that she might get a lap dance from one of these guys, she’s okay with that. He didn’t heed her advice to slow down on the booze, so he shouldn’t expect her to follow his direction either.
The strip show winds down after Katelyn gets a very lengthy private lapdance with Clive that raises some eyebrows, and not long after the boat pulls into the dock where the women are meeting up with Landry’s party.
“Woah!” Charlie struggles to maintain her balance with her first couple steps. “I haven’t had that much to drink. I guess sea legs are a real thing.”
“Somehow its easier to be tipsy and walk in heels on a yacht than it is to walk on solid ground right now,” Kyra observes. “Oh look, the guys are already here.” She nods towards the shoreline where most of the men don’t look in any better shape than the women.
Despite the fact that most everyone could stand to go home and go to bed immediately, the majority decide to hit up more clubs downtown.
“I think Bryce, and I are just going to head back,” Charlie tells Kyra.
“Oh, yes.” Bryce agrees. “I’ve been waiting all night to get this one to myself.” He grabs Charlie and gives her a big, sloppy drunk kiss.
Kyra laughs. “Have fun with that.”
“Are you sure you are good if I leave?” Charlie asks.
“Yeah, I’ll stick with the group. Plus Dan said he’d make sure I got back safely.” Kyra motions towards the now dressed in normal street clothes dancer.
In the past Charlie would have been concerned about her friend going home with a stripper she’d just met, but now she’d be quite the hypocrite to raise objection. “I’m sure he will,” Charlie winks at Kyra and decides she’s been spending entirely too much time with Bryce.
Charlie guides Bryce on the short walk to the resort, and he wastes no time questioning her about her evening.
“Didn’t you see my last texts?”
“Oh, did you send me some more?” Charlie plays coy. She did briefly glance at his series of replies saying he hoped she was joking and worrying about why she wasn’t texting him back. She wants to mess with him some more, but now that he’s there in front of her she doesn’t have the heart. “Don’t worry, I saved my lap just for you.”
Bryce perks up, a wide grin spreading across his face. “You know I really did miss you tonight.” Bryce puts his arm around Charlie but stumbles and almost brings them both to the ground. “Oops, sorry.”
“Let’s just focus on getting back to the room without incident.”
They step inside the building and make it up to the room. Charlie isn’t sure what Bryce still has planned, but she knows nothing but sleep is happening for him tonight. Charlie guides Bryce to the bedroom and sits down on the bed to take off her heels.
Bryce walks up in front of Charlie and starts playing with the first button on his shirt. “Are you ready for your show?” He works at the button but doesn’t even seem to have the coordination to get it undone.
“Maybe I should help you.” Charlie stands up and moves his hands to the side, easily popping the top button.
“I like where this is going buuut this isn’t how strippers work, silly.”
Charlie laughs under her breath. “I know but this shirt’s a little tricky for you right now. I’ll just undo the buttons.”
“Okay.” Bryce leans in close and sniffs her hair. “You smell so good Charlie. I just want to eat you.”
Bryce is wasted and as much as Charlie would typically be annoyed at this type of behavior, it’s the first time Bryce has let himself give up any sort of control around her. He’s actually kind of adorable when he’s drunk and she still owes him for taking care of her on that first night anyway.
Charlie slides the shirt over his shoulders and tosses it on the back of the armchair in the room. “I’m going to go change in the bathroom and let you finish up out here.
“Wait!” Bryce grabs her by the shoulders and sits her back down on the bed. “The show is not over yet. Bryce hastily peels off his undershirt with no finesse whatsoever and then unbuttons his jeans. He drops them down and when he tries to kick them off his feet, he goes tumbling to his hands and knees.”
“Are you okay?” Charlie untangles the pants and helps him to the bed.
“Maybe you were right. This was not my best performance. I owe you an IOU. Wait, does that sound right?” Bryce scratches his head.
Charlie shakes her head. “Just get comfortable and I’ll get you some water so you aren’t hating life in the morning.”
Bryce chugs down one glass and then another before lying back, struggling to keep his eyes open. “Charlie, you are the best. We should be together...for reeeaal. We’re both so pretty and we can be sucs- sussess- good doctors together.”
Charlie covers him with a sheet and tries to refrain from bursting out laughing because he’s clearly talking nonsense right now. “Goodnight, Bryce,” she whispers softly, but is only answered back by the sound of his snores.

Afterbirth Part 1
Aesthetic by @xximagoddamnmermaidxx
TW: Smut
6 months old, December 24th
---
Susan watched with judgmental eyes as Violet carefully applied the organic diaper rash cream to Clark's inner thighs.
“I don't know why you're paying $89 for a two ounce tube of shit that probably works as well as the $3.99 jar.”
“Because,” a clearly agitated Violet emphasized, “I don't want to just put random chemicals on my baby. I use organic and natural products only.”
“Well, I used the $3.99 jar on Matty and he turned out just fine.”
Violet scoffed. “Matthew claims that he can smell colors. I don't know what fried his brain, but it won't happen to Clark.”
“Yeah, with organic diapers that probably gave her the rash in the first place.”
“All babies get diaper rash at least once,” she said in exasperation. “Anything that irritates their sensitive skin: frequent bowel movements, chafing from the friction- don't act like I'm a bad mother, Susan.”
The woman defensively raised her hands. “I didn't say that. I just think you're wasting money.”
“It's my money! If I want to ‘waste’ it on my baby, then I can!”
Fresh out of the shower and still covered in a few suds, Matt swiftly descended the stairs as he secured the towel around his waist. “What's going on?”
“Your mother is judging my parenting skills!”
“Am not! I just said that organic products are unnecessary. Matty, you turned out fine with chemicals, snack cakes and full sodium foods. You've had so much sodium in your life that you could probably crap a salt lick.”
“I don't even…want that imagery,” Matt grumbled as she shook his head. “Mom, just please let Violet do her thing.”
“So I can't have an input on my only child's child?”
“You can have opinions, but don't judge her.”
“These are my opinions!”
“But it's not constructive criticism. It just comes across as attacking,” Violet retorted.
Susan scoffed. “You're just sensitive.”
Violet exploded so the woman shouted back, effectively startling the baby who immediately began to wail.
“Look at what you did,” Violet groaned as she cradled Clark before storming up the stairs. “When you're ready to apologize, we'll be in the nursery!” She slammed the door closed behind her.
“Good job, Mom,” Matt whispered as he rushed to remove the small box from its secret hiding spot in the grits box before dropping it into the pink stocking hanging on the mantle above the fireplace embroidered 'Violet’.
“Why do you have to play on Violet's hatred for me to manipulate her? Why can't you just propose like a normal person?”
“Ssshhhh!” he desperately hushed. “I've planned this thing, step by step, for weeks. She's mad now and maybe Clark got a little scared but it'll all be worth it once she sees the ring.”
“Can I see that thing again? Are you sure she'll like it?”
Matt grabbed the box and ushered his mother behind the massive evergreen that Violet and Clark had covered in shimmery pink ornaments. He lifted the lid.
“Yeah... I don't know, Matty,” Susan said as she assessed the custom made heart ring with an 'L’ stamped into the middle of it. “It's certainly not... traditional.”
“We’re not a traditional couple so, of course not. She will have the imprint and I'll have the imprintee.”
“Huh?”
“Have you ever seen the rings Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy on SpongeBob have? They interlock like puzzle pieces or something! My ring will have an ‘L’ and it'll match perfectly to this one so that when we fist bump, it'll be all matchy and romanticcc.”
“What's the 'L’ stand for? Lent?”
“Love, Mom! God, keep up!” Matt returned the box to Violet's stocking and gave his mother a giddy look before going stoic. “Now, to repair the 'damage’ you've done,” he joked before rushing up the stairs two steps at a time. He opened the door to the nursery but froze when he heard a sobbing Violet venting to their baby.
“God, I just feel so fucking trapped sometimes. I love you, Clark but why did Matthew have to be your father? I just can't fucking stand Susan. He doesn't even stand up to her. Like, are you even a fucking man? I don't regret you, baby, but why the fucking Lents? It's just, ugh.”
Matt pulled the door to a soft close and returned down the stairs.
“Well, that was fast,” Susan said. “Wait, what are you doing?” she asked as she watched Matt snatch the small box from Violet's stocking prior to storming into the nearest bathroom and flushing the symbol of love down the toilet. “Matty, wha-”
“The only reason I'm with that woman is for Clark's sake,” he sniveled. The declaration was made to protect his own feelings as the tears began to brew. Before they could, Matt rushed out of the back door to be with his dogs.
“Once he's with the boys, let him be,” Susan mumbled as a reminder to give the man his space. ---
“No, I don't mean that,” Violet sighed as she wiped her eyes. “I'm still shaking this postpartum shit off and I swear that I love you and your father and I wouldn't change either of you for the world. I just...ugh, I hate being so emotional, you know?”
Clark reached up and grabbed her mother's nose.
The woman smiled. “I love you too.”
---
Once the baby was down for her nap, Violet slowly descended the stairs into the living room.
Susan glanced at her. “I'm sorry for being such a judgemental bitch. I'll keep all future opinions to myself. If I want to raise another baby, I should have one instead of forcing my dated ideals onto you,” she robotically recited.
Violet folded her arms. “Thank you, but you have to apologize to Clark as well.”
The woman rolled her eyes. “Will do.”
“Where's Matthew?”
“Out back.”
“He's in the snow with no clothes on?!”
“The dog house.”
“Oh…” Violet knew that it was serious when the man opted to spend time in the dog mansion that he'd built for his buddies rather than attempting to sneak them into the basement while her head was turned. The woman geared herself in a coat, cap and boots before rushing out of the back door. She sloshed through the foot of fluffy snow until she reached the heated dog playhouse. “Hey,” she greeted, closing the door behind her.
“Where's Clark?” Matt asked without looking at her.
“Napping. You okay?”
“I'm fine,” the man said coldly. “Here, Loki,” he cooed as he blew kisses. “Heyyy, buddy.”
“You don't look fine,” Violet replied.
“Then break up with me,” Matt said nonchalantly.
The woman made a face. “I meant that you're in a blizzard with nothing on but a towel, not that you're not ‘fine’ as in attractive. You know that could never be the case,” she said suggestively. “You're sexy, babe.”
“Dr. Doom, be niceee.” He laughed. “Oh, you guys kill me.”
Never the one to be ignored for an animal, Violet stormed over and stood in front of her boyfriend. “What's your problem?”
“I don't have a problem.”
She pouted. “You're ignoring me.”
“Oh, boo fucking hoo. You're not the center of attention for once. Go cry about it, or better yet, dump me.”
“Matthew, I don't want to dump you! Why do you keep saying that?!”
Matt thought about Clark. “I'm sorry,” he sighed. “I'm just under a lot of stress at work.”
“Really? I thought you loved your job.”
“Of course I do. Doesn't mean that there isn't the competition of the next guy trying to come along and take your spot.”
“Oh.” She softly grazed her fingernails along his hand. “Is there anything I can do to help you relieve some stress?”
“You could leave me alone with my boys.”
“Shit, true. Doing it in front of dogs isn't cute. I'll see you inside?”
Matt nodded. “Unless I get blessed with invisibility.”
Violet laughed, stole a kiss and rushed out of the front door. Loki followed her out of the doggie entrance flap but quickly returned inside when he was reminded of the snow.
The man chuckled. “See? Don't chase women. They do nothing but lie, freeze you out and break your heart.”
---
With a little wine, lit candles and sexy holiday lingerie, Violet was thoroughly prepared for Matt when he finally returned inside.
“Ho, ho, ho,” she said seductively.
Matt couldn't deny that the woman looked amazing and he couldn't fight his manly urges, so when Violet beckoned him over, he complied.
---
“Oh my God, Matthewwww,” Violet moaned as the man aggressively slammed into her from the behind. She wasn't used to his masculine grunts or him roughly tugging on her hair, but she definitely wasn't complaining. “Fuck, babe! It's all yours!” Violet squealed as her legs began to tremble in the midst of her Earth shattering orgasm while Matt panted as she filled his condom.
After pulling out and cleaning up, Violet was used to cuddling so it took her by surprise when Matt rolled onto his side away from her and went straight to sleep.
“I love you,” she whispered.
The man replied with a snore.
---
“And then he just fell asleepppp,” Violet whined into the phone.
“Maybe he was just really tired, Vi,” Naomi said in attempt to calm her friend. “Was the sex bad?”
“No! It was the best it's been since I was pregnant, maybe even better but there wasn't any intimacyyyy.”
“So would you rather have lackluster, cuddle sex or cold, amazing sex?”
Violet sniffled as scheduled thought. “Cold and amazing,” she finally rushed. “Sorry for bothering you with this nonsense.”
“It's not nonsense, we all need a push towards the obvious choice sometimes.”
---
On Christmas morning, everyone was up bright and early. Clark was showered in so many trinkets and toys that she didn't know what she wanted to play with first. When the six month old was occupied by the plush Superman blanket that her father had given her, it forced her parents to interact.
“She looks so happy,” Violet sighed. “That's all I ever wanted, for her to be happy.”
“Me too.”
The woman smiled at her boyfriend. “Having both her parents here makes all the difference.”
“Agreed,” Matt said as he entered the verbal agreement that made him tolerate a woman that he didn't think loved him for the sake of his child.
Violet held the fresh mistletoe over Matt's head. “Oh, wow what do we have here?”
The man chuckled. If the beautiful woman wanted to pretend to be in love with him, he didn't see a problem with going along with it. Matt wrapped his arms around Violet and pulled her into a kiss.
---
2 years old
“Are you ready Clark?” Violet asked as she compulsively adjusted her daughter's dress and curls. “You have to smile big when you go down the aisle. And try to throw the flowers as evenly as you can. Okay?”
“I'm going to throw them everywhere!”
“No, baby, you can'tttttt. You have to make it nice and neat for Aunt Naomi and Auntie Raven, okay?”
“But I want to go crazy!” she giggled.
“Fine,” Violet sighed. “They knew what they were getting themselves into when they asked you to be the flower girl.”
“I'm the best flower girllll.”
“Of course you are, my love,” she said as grabbed the girl's hand and led her to the room where Naomi was getting dressed.
“Hi, Aunt Naomi!” Clark greeted excitedly. “You look so prettyyyy.”
“Aww, thank you, CC! So do you!”
The toddler spun in her puffy white taffeta dress and nearly toppled over.
“Be careful, sweetheart,” Violet pleaded.
“I ammmm.”
She looked at her friend and immediately became emotional. “Naomi, you look...so amazing. I couldn't imagine a more perfect dress.”
The woman gave a slow spin in her simple, fitted boat neckline dress. The draped cowl back gave the classic look some sex appeal and it was phenomenal on her flawless, statuesque figure.
“When we were five years old, did you ever imagine this day?”
“No,” Naomi said honestly through misty eyes. “And especially not to a woman,” she laughed.
Violet chuckled. “Raven’s not just any woman. You guys have been through so much together and you deserve all the happiness in the world.”
“Awww,” Naomi said as she wrapped her arms around her best friend. “I love you.”
“I love you too. Let's go get married.”
“Me too! Me too!” Clark cheered.
---
Raven anxiously waited at the altar in her fashion forward ivory jumpsuit with a plunging neckline until she heard the music that queued Violet down the aisle. As both maid of honor and the best friend of several years, the woman desperately wanted her Pippa Middleton moment. She slowly slinked towards the altar in a skin tight, sheer dress that only had delicately placed beaded embroidery to cover up her naughty parts, but the dress still left nothing to the imagination.
She winked at Matt and he smiled from his seat. Next down the aisle was Clark who marched in her ballerina flats as she, to her mother's dismay, tossed her white rose petals all over the place.
“Is it pretty?!” the toddler asked.
“Awww,” people said collectively. “Yes!”
Clark beamed from ear to ear as she continued and when she passed her father, she made sure to sprinkle a generous amount of petals on him.
“Now you're pretty,” she whispered before rushing to her spot next to Violet.
“Did I do good?”
“It was so good,” her mother assured.
“Here have some.” Clark scooped out more petals and offered them to her mother.
“No, no. You keep them in your basket...niceee and neat.”
Moments later, Naomi was walked down the aisle by her father who initially didn't understand her being transgender, but now he was definitely confused by his transgender daughter marrying a woman. But the man loved her enough to bite his tongue and support whatever she decided to do, even if she wouldn't take him up on the last minute offer to skip town in his Corvette.
He gave her away and the floodgates that were opened when the couple began to recite their vows didn't leave a dry eye in the house.
After the ceremony, Violet watched her friends first dance with a melancholy heart.
“What's wrong, Mommy?” Clark asked when she approached.
“Hm?” Violet turned to look at her daughter and nearly screamed at the sight of blue frosting that covered the girl's hands and area around her mouth. The woman pulled out her wipes and immediately went into cleaning mode.
“Are you sad, Mommy?” Clark asked again.
“No,” Violet sighed. “I'm just...do you know that you're two years old now?”
“Yes.”
“So that means I've been with your father for nearly three years.”
“That's a lotta years!”
“I knowww and…” Violet leaned in, “we haven't even talked about marriage.”
“Marriage?!” Clark squealed in excitement. “You wanna marry Daddy?!”
“Sssshhhhhh!” she hushed as she looked around. When she saw Matt at the bar, she exhaled and turned back to Clark. “Of course I want to marry your father. I love him.”
“Well then he needs to marry you so that I can put on another pretty dress.”
Violet frowned. “All of the dresses that I buy you are pretty.”
“Yes but I never get to wear them to weddings.”
She smiled. “Touche. Hey, listen, don't tell your father about this conversation, okay? You've always been my little confidant. Hell, I've been venting to you ever since you were a baby. Let's keep it a secret.”
“I can keep a secret,” Clark assured.
Violet kissed her head and finished wiping the last bits of frosting off of her daughter. “Thank you.”
“I have to get more cupcakes nowwww.”
The woman made a face before relenting. “Take these with you.” She gave Clark the wipes and watched her as she made her way to the dessert table. Clark grabbed two cupcakes and skipped towards her father.
“Here, Daddy!”
“Oh, thank you, sweetheart!”
Matt lifted the girl and placed her on the counter. Once he accepted his cupcake, they toasted with the baked goods and took a big bite out of each them.
“Are you having fun?” he asked.
“Yes. I like weddings. That's why you and Mommy should get married.”
Matt's eyebrows shot up. “Really?”
Clark nodded.
“What if I told you that I wanted to marry your mommy a long time ago but she said no?”
The girl gasped. “No way!”
“Yes way! Well, kind of. I just heard her say some things once and,” he sighed, “I just know she doesn't want to marry me.”
Clark frowned. “But she loves you.”
Matt grabbed his daughter and began to tickle her. “You know who loves who? I love you and that's all that matters!”
The girl giggled as she squirmed. “Heyyyy, you're driving me coconuts!”
Matt cackled and gave his daughter a firm squeeze before kissing her head. “Just because your mom and I aren't married, doesn't mean that I don't love you.”
“But you guys kisssss. Doesn't that mean you love each other?”
Matt cleared his throat. “Um, yes. I do love her bu-”
“You both love each other! People who love each other get married!”
“I'll think about it, okay?”
“Promise?”
“Yes.”
“Alright, ladiesss,” Naomi said into the microphone. “Who's going to catch my bouquet?”
Matt watched as Violet elbowed her way to the front of the crowd.
“3...2...1!” Naomi tossed the flowers over her head and Violet practically shoved a middle aged woman to the ground in order to catch them.
“Yayyyy, Mommy!” Clark cheered.
Violet raised her arms in victory before she glanced over at her family. She gave Matt a soft smile and the man sighed as he turned his attention back to the bartender. “Can I get another shot?”
“Can I have a shot?” Clark asked as she batted her long lashes.
“Yeah, a shot of milk, little lady.”
“I'll take that.”
---
Matt carried his milk and cupcake wasted child into the house as Violet followed suit.
“Give her to me. I'll wash her up before you put her in bed.”
“She's already sleeping, you can bathe her in the morning.”
“Matthew, I'm not putting my child into bed sticky and dirty.”
“Violet,” he retorted with attitude, “I'm not going to let you wake her to bathe her and make her cranky just for you to get frustrated and have me come in to fix it. Going to bed a little sticky will not kill either of you.”
“No, but I'm this close to killing you,” she retorted.
Matt scoffed. “You probably would, psycho. And then clean up the crime scene like I never lived here to begin with.”
“I wish you didn't live here.” The woman didn't mean it, but her pride never failed to get in the way when the couple argued.
“Oh, tell me something I don't know. You never wanted me around and I don't even know why you bothered to fake it all these years.”
“Fake what? I've never been fake in my life!”
“Fake the obvious lie that you love me! I know that you'd rather have anyone be Clark's father but me. That shit hurts but I fucking stuck around because I don't trust you. If we broke up, you'd probably take her away from me and God only knows who you'd have around her playing 'daddy’.”
“What the fuck are you talking about?!”
Clark stirred and whimpered in her sleep.
“Just shut up,” Matt hissed before going up the stairs. He entered his daughter's room and placed her in her princess canopy bed prior to tiptoeing out. The second that he closed door, he was caught off guard by Violet's hand slapping him across the face.
“Don't you ever tell me to shut up!”
The man simply pursed his lips and descended the stairs.
Violet quickly followed him. “Matthew, I'm sorry,” she offered. “You're saying that I'm fake and that I don't love you and I don't know where that's even coming from.”
“So you hit me,” he chirped sarcastically. “
Brilliant logic.”
“I’m sorryyy,” she sniffled.
“Yeah, you are.” Matt grabbed the bourbon from the cabinet. “But not as sorry as you will be, love,” he said as he dropped the bottle and let it crash on the floor.
“What are you doing?!”
The man began to pull anything and everything he could get his hands on to the floor, making the biggest mess possible. Dishes, food and even the paintings on the wall were sent crashing to the hardwood in the man's rage fueled tantrum.
“Matthew, stop!” Violet pleaded.
Matt smashed a jar of pickles against the wall. “Oh, sorry, I didn't mean it!” the man said sarcastically. “I'll just hurt your feelings or slap you and then take it all back because I didn't mean it!” He paused to catch his breath before knocking the toaster over. “And then I'll leave you to pick up the pieces.” Matt stormed out of the room leaving Violet to sob and hyperventilate over the enormous mess.
Matt made his way up the stairs and froze when he saw Clark in the doorway of her bedroom.
“Is there a hur-a-cane?” she groggily asked as she rubbed her eyes.
“No, baby, there's not a hurricane. Go back to bed.”
“I don't wanna go back to beddd.”
“Then what do you want to do?”
“Paint.”
“Arts and crafts, huh?”
---
Violet cried until she was able to compose herself enough to trek to her cleaning closet. She opened the door and frowned when she didn't see her hazmat suit. Violet heard Clark giggle.
“I like this one, Daddy!”
The woman rushed up the stairs, opened the door to her daughter's bedroom and screamed when she saw that the father/daughter duo had cut her hazmat suit to shreds so that they could use it for their artwork.
“Look, Mommy, I made you a flower,” the girl said excitedly as she rushed to hand over the bundle of glitter covered hazmat plastic.
“Thank you, sweetheart. Matthew,” Violet said through a clenched jaw. “May I speak to you outside for a second?”
“Nope.”
“We're busy, Mommy.”
“Clark Christine Lent, was I speaking to you?”
The girl pouted. “No.”
“Precisely, therefore I didn't need your input. And look! You've got glitter and paint in your carpet! What did I tell you about using that stuff in your room?!”
“But Daddy, said it was okay,” Clark sniveled.
“It is okay,” Matt said nonchalantly as he grabbed the bottle of blue paint and squeezed a glob into the light colored carpet.
Violet swore that she heard something inside of her snap. She calmly made her way downstairs, grabbed her phone and called her sister.
“Hello?”
“Rose, do you think Clark can spend the night with you? I don't want her to see this.”
“See what?”
“Me killing her father.”
---
A few minutes later, Rose arrived and Clark was ushered towards the front door.
“Wait, you didn't ask me if it was okay if Clark could go somewhere,” Matt said.
“But I want to go, Daddyyyy,” the toddler whined.
“Fine,” he sighed. “I'll miss you.”
“I know.”
“You know?!” he asked dramatically as he pulled the giggling girl into his arms. “See you later, munchkin.”
The second that Clark rushed out of the door with Rose, Matt was ambushed by Violet jumping onto his back and wrapping her arms around his neck.
“What the-”
“Die, motherfucker!”
The man dropped to his knees and when her chokehold began to cut off his air supply, he purposefully drooled on her arm; a surefire way to get her to let go.
“Eww!” Violet squealed as she released and then shoved the man before pulling him into a headlock.
Matt grabbed the woman's thighs and pinched them as hard as he could.
“Owww!”
“Let me go,” he wheezed.
“Not until you're dead! Now apologize for making such a huge fucking mess!”
“Kiss my ass!”
Violet tightened her grip on the man's neck while he twisted the sensitive skin on her thighs even harder. They both groaned out in pain and demanded for the other to give up when Clark burst back into the house, pausing when she saw them.
“Clark, baby,” Violet panted in a shaky voice. “What are you doing back?”
“I forgot Lex Luthor,” she said as she grabbed her teddy bear while her eyes stayed curiously fixated on her parents. “Is this what Mommy and Daddy time looks like?”
“...Yes,” her mother replied unconvincingly.
“Okay. Have fun!” she cheered before rushing back out, closing the front door behind her.
Her parents sighed in relief before their quarrel continued.
“Say uncle!” Violet shouted.
“As soon as you let me go!”
“Never!”
Violet swung her arm and delivered a punch to Matt's face. The man couldn't believe that she'd hit him like that. Completely annoyed, he used his arms to knock Violet on her ass and with her arms still wrapped around his neck, she took Matt with her.
The man bit into the woman's left boob and she hollered as she finally let go.
“You fucking animal!”
“You punched me!”
Violet attempted to swing again, but Matt slammed her arms against the hardwood.
“Oww,” she whined.
“Stop trying to hit me in the fucking face!”
“You're getting out of control! You and Clark drew on the walls: Fine. I let it go and we played in the water. But then you let her go to bed all sticky, look at what you did to the kitchen! And worst of all, my hazmat suit! You went too fucking far, Matthew!”
“No, going too far is having a baby by someone you don't even love!”
Violet's bottom lip began to quiver. “You don't love me?”
“You don't love me!” he shouted as he pushed away from her. “I remember it like it was yesterday! Christmas Eve, two years ago, Clark was like six months old. You were fighting with my Mom and you stormed upstairs with the baby. I go up there to see if you're okay and you said, and I'll never fucking forgot it, ‘I just feel so fucking trapped sometimes. I love you, Clark but why did Matthew have to be your father?’”
Violet didn't recall saying it, but she didn't put it past herself as something she'd say while upset.
“Who else would be her fucking father?!” he shouted as he punched the wall, effectively leaving a fist sized hole. “Without me, she wouldn't even be Clark and you wouldn't have that amazing little girl as a daughter! Bitch!” the man fumed as he released two years of pent up anger and resentment. “I've stayed this long for the baby, but fuck it. I can't live like this anymore.”
At this point, the woman was sobbing but she managed to get her words out clearly. “Matthew, this is all some big misunderstanding, okay? You have to believe that.”
Matt rolled his eyes as he made his way up the stairs and quickly Violet followed him, barely catching the door in time so that he couldn't lock her out. She watched in pain as the man began to pack.
“What are you doing?” she sniveled.
“I’m leaving.”
“Matthew, you can't do that. What about Clark?”
“I'd prefer it if my child grew up with parents who hate each other rather than no parents because one is dead and the other is in jail for their murder.”
“But we do love each other!” Violet cried. “Nobody wants to murder anybody.”
“Speak for yourself,” he grumbled as he messily tossed the rest of his things into his luggage. He locked it, snatched it up and began to make his way down stairs. “I'll be back to see Clark tomorrow.”
“But you can see her all the time if you just stayed! Matthew, I love you! What am I supposed to do without you?!”
Matt opened the front door but then paused, making Violet's teary eyes grow wide with hope.
“Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn,” he said coldly prior to continuing out of the door, leaving Violet to fall to the hardwood as her sobbing became uncontrollable then hysterical before she passed out on the foyer floor.
---
Violet had no idea what time it was when she crawled up the stairs, but when she found a mirror and saw the dark bags under her eyes, her matted curls, her uncountable bruises and ripped gown, the woman burst into tears all over again.
---
Matt strolled up to the hotel counter and the wide eyed receptionist reluctantly greeted him.
“Can I get a fucking room?” he asked.
“Umm...ye-yes. Should I call an ambulance as well?”
“Why would you call an-”
She held up her phone's reflective case and the man was finally able to see all the damage that Violet had done.
“Well damn,” he exhaled. “I didn't know that I was bleeding.” The man snatched a few Kleenex out of the box on the counter and placed them against his nose. “Bitch can't weigh more than 118 soaking wet and she manages to black my eye and put me into a fucking chokehold that almost made me black out. How was I supposed to react to that? I leave before I kill her, that's what I do,” the man angrily ranted to himself.
The receptionist slowly moved her hand to trigger the alarm, but she froze when Matt turned to look at her.
“I need a room for three nights,” he demanded.
“We’re all booked!” the woman shouted in fear before rushing out of the door behind the counter.
---
“She put you in a headlock?!” Shea asked over the FaceTime call before bursting into laughter.
Matt puffed out his marijuana smoke. “That's not funny!”
“It is though! I didn't think she had it in her.”
“She's a psychopath.”
“True, but you love her.”
Matt scoffed. “Fuck all the way off.”
“You do. You're just hurt over what happened and you held that in for so long that it's driving you crazy. But if you didn't love her, you wouldn't have given a fuck and you would've left a long time ago.”
“I stayed for the baby.”
“Oh, bullshit. I hate when people use their kids as an excuse to stay miserable. You stayed because you love her and you won't convince me otherwise. In fact, every time you call me, it's to talk shit and complain about her.”
The man took a puff of his blunt. “You look really pretty in that lighting.”
Shea rolled her eyes.
“Leave your boyfriend so we can get remarried.”
“You're funny.”
He chuckled as he blew out smoke. “I love you. Always have, always will.”
“Ditto, babe.”
“I'm going to try and get some sleep. I need strength in case she wants to go for a round two in the morning.”
“Take it easy on her. Wouldn't want to break your baby mama’s arm.”
Matt cackled. “Maybe I do.”
Shea simply shook her head and blew her ex-husband a kiss. “Later.”
---
“Please don't stain, please don't stain,” Violet whimpered as she scrubbed the tomato paste out of the hardwood. She heard the doorbell ring and reluctantly left the mess to go answer it.
“Oh my God,” Rose gasped when she saw the red spots on her sister's dress. “You really did it didn't you? That's his blood!”
“What? Oh- no! This is tomato paste, I'm cleaning.”
“Violet, you can be honest with me. If you did do it, let's get you out of the country now.”
“Matthew is alive...but I don't know if I am,” she sniffled. “He left.”
Rose pulled her sister into an embrace. “It'll be okay.”
“Mommy, Mommy!” Clark shouted as she rushed inside, followed by Clover. “I had waffles and Clover and me made cookies! See!”
Violet quickly put on a happy expression but Clark knew better.
“That's wonderful, sweetheart. I'm sure those cookies taste amazingggg.”
“What's wrong, Mommy? What happened to your dress? You stayed in it the entire night?” she asked, knowing that it was strange for her mother to do such a thing.
“Yeah, I was really busy last night.”
“With Mommy and Daddy time?”
Rose and Clover made faces.
“We'll take Clark to get ice cream,” her aunt offered. “You want ice cream, Clark?”
“No, I want to stay with Mommy.”
Violet nodded, assuring her sister that everything would be okay.
“Do you need help with anything?”
“No, we're fine. I'll see you guys later.”
The family shared hugs and kisses before Rose and Clover exited.
“Your dress is dirty, Mommy.”
“I know, sweetheart, it's okay. I'll get another.”
“Where is Daddy?”
“He's not here right now.”
“Are you mad at him?”
“Um…no.”
“Did you talk to him about a weddinggg?” she asked, large blue eyes full of hope.
“No,” Violet said honestly.
Clark frowned. “Grownups are so slow.”
Her mother laughed. “True. Let's go get cleaned up.”
“Can I pick you something to wear?”
“Of course, darling. And then we'll play the clean up game, okay?”
“Okay!” she chirped as she skipped along.
---
Matt took a deep breath as he made his way up the cobblestone path to the front door. With donuts in hand, he reluctantly entered his home and wasn't surprised by the floral scented cleaners that wafted through the air.
“Clark?” he called.
“Daddyyyy!”
The toddler came sprinting out of the living room and into her father's arms.
“Heyyy, princess!”
Clark gasped when she saw Matt's cuts and bruises. She placed both of her hands on her father's cheeks. “What happened to youuu?”
“I got into a fight.”
“With who?”
“Umm...Harley Quinn.”
Clark scowled. “I'll kick Harley Quinn's ass.”
Matt couldn't help but cackle. “Baby, don't say ass.”
“Well, if she kicked your ass, I'm gonna have to kick her ass.”
The man snorted. “Thank you, Clark. But say kick her butt because ass is a bad word.”
“Ohh...well, Mommy and I will both kick her butt! Mommy!”
“No, why are you calling her?” Matt rushed in a whisper.
“She has to see this and access this situation.”
“Access?” he chuckled at her misuse of the word.
“Yes! Mommyyyyyyy!”
“Hey, hey, hey,” Matt intervened. “I brought you donuts.”
She paused. “Jelly ones?”
He scoffed dramatically. “Of course jelly ones.”
“Yayyyy!”
Matt sighed in relief over the girl's short attention span as he placed her to the floor and handed her the box.
Clark swiftly accepted the gift and ran to find her mother. “Mommyyyy, Daddy brought donuts!”
Matt groaned.
When her daughter rushed back into the living room, Violet closed her book. “What happened, sweetie?”
“Daddy brought donuts because Harley Quinn kicked his ass.”
“Clark Christine,” her mother chastised.
“I mean, kicked his butt. Look at his face, Mommy! You have to make his boo-boos better!” Clark waited for her father to round the corner, but when he didn't, she placed the donuts in Violet's hands and rushed around the corner. Matt was nowhere to be found. “Daddyyyy!” she shouted up the stairs. The man didn't respond, leaving the toddler with no choice but to cry as she rushed back to her mother.
Violet placed the donuts to the side. “What's wrong, Clark?”
“Daddy is gone! He's hurt and he's gone!” she sobbed.
The woman sighed. “Do you want me to call him?”
“Yes!”
Violet pulled out her cell phone and called the man who took at least six rings to answer.
“Hello?”
She quickly handed the phone to her daughter. “Hello? Daddy?” Clark sniveled.
There was nothing worse in this world to the man than hearing his daughter cry. It made him feel ten times as worse as Violet's tears used to, and it was truly his kryptonite.
“Baby, why are you crying?” he asked weakly.
“You left me!”
“No, I didn't, Clark. I'm in the driveway and I'm coming back into the house now.”
The girl dropped the phone and sprinted towards the front door, making perfect timing to jump into her father's arms. When she continued to sob, Matt squeezed her even tighter.
“Baby, I'd never, ever, ever, ever, leave you without saying goodbye. Do you know that?”
“Yes,” she sniffled. “But you upset meeee.”
The words felt like a dagger to Matt's heart. “How did I upset you?”
“You have to let Mommy and me fix your boo-boos before they get injected!”
“Injected?”
“Yes!”
“Okay, sweetheart,” Matt sighed as he kissed her head. “I'm so sorry for upsetting you. It won't happen again.”
Clark wiped her eyes. “Okay.” She shimmied out of her father's arms and pulled him along until they reached the living room. “See, Mommy! Look at what Harley Quinn did!” the girl fumed as she folded her arms.
“Oh nooo,” Violet said, barely convincing the child.
“Well?! Go get your first-aids kit!”
“But he's not bleeding.”
“But he is hurt!” Clark shrieked, quickly growing exhausted by her parents lack of understanding for the severity of the situation. “You love him so fix it!”
“You're right, Clark. I do love him...so I'll do my best to fix it.”
Matt understood the underhanded nature of the comment and rolled his eyes.
“Sit down, Daddy,” Clark ordered. “Mommy, we need that first-aids kit, now!”
“Is this the emergency room?” Matt asked.
The toddler nodded.
“Are you a nurse or a doctor?”
“Nurse.”
“May I please have some water then?”
“Coming up!”
While Clark rushed into the kitchen, Violet returned to the living room. Matt refused to even look up at her.
“Listen, um,” the woman began, “I want to be in this uncomfortable situation just as much as you do. All I can say is that I'm sorry, but I don't know what else I'm supposed to do to fix this.”
“Hmmm, have you tried eating a pound of garlic?”
“But I'm allergic to...oh.”
“Here's your water, Daddy,” Clark chirped as she rushed around the corner with a bottle.
“Thank you, Nurse.”
“You're welcome. Now, be a good patient and let Mommy doctor fix you. Don't be a crybaby.”
Matt laughed. “I'm never a crybaby.”
“You are sometimesss.”
“What?! When?”
“When Mommy plucks your eyebrows.”
“Hey, hey, that was once and only because I lost a bet.”
Clark giggled.
“Why you laughin’ at yo Daddy's pain, girl?”
“Cause it's funny sometimes.”
“Fair enough.”
Clark climbed onto the couch and stood next to her seated father while Violet retrieved her first-aid kit. She grabbed the Neosporin and gently began to dab it along his black eye and cut nose bridge. Matt winced.
“Sorry,” Violet said softly.
“It’s okay,” Clark assured.
Matt fought the urge to smile.
“Is that better, Daddy? Is Mommy a good doctor?”
“Yes.”
“Yes, what?”
Matt sighed. “Yes, Mommy is a good doctor.”
“She takes care of both of us.”
“Mm hmm. She surely does,” he said dryly.
“This is why we need to do a wedding!” Clark squealed.
“What wedding?” her parents asked collectively.
The toddler threw her arms in the air out of sheer frustration. “Your wedding!”
“Clark,” Matt exhaled. “There won't be a wedding.” He cleared his throat. “Um, Mommy and I are breaking up.”
Clark frowned. “What does that mean?”
“We... I-I won't be Mommy's boyfriend anymore.”
The girl gasped. “Why not?!” She aggressively grabbed Matt's cheeks. “Mommy is the most beautiful woman in the world!”
“I know she is.”
“No you don't if you don't want to be her boyfriend!”
“It's not that I don't want to be her boyfriend, I just...hey, do I really have to explain my relationship problems to you?”
She squeezed her father's cheeks even harder. “Yes!”
“You want me to be to honest?”
“Yes.”
“I don't think your Mom loves me as much as I love her.”
“No,” Clark protested. “She loves you and thinks you're more handsome than Thor.”
Matt laughed.
“She does! Don't you, Mommy?”
Violet bashfully tucked some of her hair behind her ear. “I do.”
“See, Daddy? She thinks you're hot stuff.”
Both her parents laughed.
“Seeeeee, you guys love each other.”
“Of course I love your Mom, but I can't be with her.”
Clark dramatically fell back onto the couch. “That doesn't make senseeee!”
“It doesn't have to make sense to you, little lady. All you need to know is that we love you and that you'll always be taken care of.”
“But I'm not happyyyy,” she groaned.
“Why not, Clark Lent?” Matt asked as he placed his hand underneath his chin.
“Because I'm only happy when Mommy is happy and now she's not happy! She wants to marry you but you don't even want to be her boyfriend! You're driving me coconuts!”
Violet pursed her lips in embarrassment over the girl's revealing rant. “Um, I have to go to the bathroom.”
When Violet left the room, Matt turned to Clark. “Mommy wants to marry me?”
“Yes! She told me.”
“Wow…” Matt exhaled.
“She loves you and you're being so self-righteous.”
“Self-righteous? Where are you getting all of these big words?”
Clark folded her arms.
“Are you ignoring me?”
“Hmph!” the girl huffed as she turned away from the man.
“Oh noooo, not Grumpy Clark. What can I do to fix it?”
She continued to ignore him.
“So, when did Mommy tell you that she wanted to be married to me?”
“Yesterday,” the toddler grumbled.
“Oh…” So did her opinion on me change over the years or is she just saying that to tell Clark what she wants to hear? the man asked himself. “I'll go with the ladder.”
“Hmm?”
“Nothing, sweetheart. Want to go to the zoo?”
Clark jumped up. “Yes!”
“Go get dressed.”
“Okay.” The toddler raced out of the room and up the stairs.
When Violet finally exited the bathroom, it was obvious to Matt that she'd been crying.
“Hey.”
“Hi,” she said quietly.
“I'm going to take Clark to the zoo.”
“Okay.”
“So...yeah.”
“Daddy, can I wear my cape?!” Clark shouted down the stairs.
“Of course, sweetheart!” Matt pushed himself off the couch. “Do you need anything while we're out?”
Violet shook her head just as Clark skipped down the stairs. “I’m ready!”
“Alright.”
“Are you coming, Mommy?”
“No, I'm a little tired, baby. You'll have fun with Daddy.”
Clark frowned. “But the go-ril-lasssss, Mom!”
“They'll be there when I go next time.”
“Fine,” she sighed. “Let's go, Daddy!”
“I'm coming. I'll start the car, you say bye to Mommy.”
Clark rushed towards her mother and Violet groaned as she picked her up. “You're getting so big, my love.”
“I'm growing up,” she chirped before cupping her hands around her mother's ear so that she could whisper. “Don’t worry about this, Mommy. Daddy will marry you because I have a plan.”
Violet sighed. “Okay, sweetheart. Have fun at the zoo. I love you.”
“Love you too.”
She kissed her daughter's cheek before returning her to the floor. The woman watched as Clark's cape floated through the air while she rushed out of the door. Violet was close behind to make sure that the girl made it out safety. After she was buckled into her carseat, Clark waved goodbye to her mother as the car sped away.
“Fuck, she's getting so big.” Feeling nostalgic, Violet made her way to the living room and dug out all of the old home videos. She popped in the first DVD and tears were brought to her eyes nearly instantly.
“Oh my Goddddd. I was so fatttt.”
Push, Violet, push! Matt encouraged on the video.
“I need a glass of wine for this.”
After settling onto the couch with her Merlot, Violet laughed at Matt's Spider-Man costume.
“Crazy man.”
---
Say Mama. Sayyyyy Mama! Violet prompted.
Her first word will be Dada, Matt intervened. Mark my wordsss.
The woman laughed. “I can't believe he was right,” she said as she took another sip of wine. “But of course. Dada has simpler syllables than Mama.” Violet popped in the next video.
Oh, fuck, Matthewwww, the woman moaned as Matt sucked on her clit.
“Shit, shit, shit,” Violet panicked as she rushed to eject the sex tape. “Why is that with Clark's baby videos?” The woman marked the DVD with a big red X before moving on to the next. “I'll watch that later.”
---
Matt held onto the chubby 10 month old’s hands, but once she steadied herself he let go.
Come to Mama. Comeee to Mama, Violet urged from across the room as she crouched on the living room floor. Come on, baby.
The toddler took one cautious step, then another before she lost her balance and plopped to her butt.
Awe, it's okay, Matt assured as he grabbed her hands to help her up. You can try again.
Clark babbled and took one bold step towards Violet before tumbling.
Babe, she needs the cape.
Matthew, that cape looks ridiculous.
Noooo, I swear she took more steps last time with the cape on.
Violet huffed. I guess it won't hurt.
Yes! Don't worry, Clark, help is on the way! Matt said as he bolted up the stairs while Violet turned towards the camera as Susan continued to film.
So ridiculous, she mouthed to the lens.
Moments later, Matt rushed back down the stairs with the bright red toddler sized cape in had. He secured the velcro loosely around his baby's neck.
Be careful, Violet ordered. Her top is Burberry.
Matt smoothed the baby's cape and clothes prior to helping her to her feet again.
Come on, Super Clark, he encouraged. You can do it.
Dada, she cooed as she reached for him.
Within a second, Clark was in Matt's arms. He kissed her cheek and blew air bubbles against it causing the baby to laugh.
Don't spoil her, Matthew. I can barely get her to try walking as is.
The man sighed and returned his daughter to the floor. He held onto her tiny fists until she could find her center of gravity prior to letting go.
Come on, Clark. Come to Mommy.
Matt blew a gust of air underneath the baby's cape to make to flow. Super Clarkkk.
Clark giggled.
Matthew, stop distracting her.
It wasn't me. Her powers are activating.
Violet groaned in exasperation and it made her baby frown.
Mamaaa, she whined as she took a step towards her. Always in tune with her mother's emotions, Clark used the woman's frustrated expression as motivation to get to her.
The woman extended her arms. Yes, baby! Come to Mama.
The toddler began to wobble, but she refused to give up as she took one unsteady step after another.
Mom, is the camera still on? Matt practically squealed.
Yes, Susan excitedly replied. She's doing so good.
With one last shaky step, Clark fell forward into her mother's arms.
Yayyy, everyone cheered in unison while Clark laughed and clapped for herself.
It was totally the cape, Matt assured.
---
The next video started with the camera facing Violet as she walked. Do you want to know what happens when you leave your baby daddy alone with the baby? she asked as she entered Clark's nursery and turned the camera to Matt.
Babe, babe, look, Matt barely got out through his laughter. He'd placed the six week old baby in the front pocket of his apron. She's like a kangaroo.
Violet cackled. “I can't believe she was tiny enough to fit in thereeee. Well, hell I remember her fitting in one hand as a newborn.”
---
Clark's first Christmas was printed across the screen before it faded into Violet holding the chubby baby as they hung ornaments.
It looks good, ladiesss, Matt complemented, circling them as he filmed.
Dada, Dada, Clark babbled as she bounced on Violet's hip.
Hi, babyyy. I love you.
Clark flashed a toothless grin. Matt reached for her but she turned away.
How rude, he gasped.
Say go away, Daddy. We're decorating.
Clark spewed out an unintelligible rant that made her parents laugh.
Violet watched the endless footage of Christmas Eve and then their party on Christmas day as her sister filmed.
What are you expecting to get today? Rose asked.
Violet scoffed. I'm not expecting anything. She looked around and laughed. Wait, where's Matt?
In the snow with Clark.
Oh, okay so get this. He asked me for my ring size a few weeks ago, she squealed.
Oooo, you know what that means.
I need ten carats, henny.
The sisters laughed.
I have to practice my surprise faces for when he proposes.
Violet paused the video and took a large gulp of her wine. “I never got to use those fucking faces.”
---
Every time that Clark would bring up Violet, Matt would distract his daughter with toys or treats. The father/daughter duo made their way around the zoo twice and when the toddler passed out from sheer exhaustion, Matt loaded her into the car and took her home.
“We're backkk,” the man announced as he entered. He didn't hear a response but he made his way to Clark's bedroom and tucked her in anyway. “Violet?” he called when he returned to the main floor. The man entered the living room and found the woman passed out on the couch with a bottle of wine next to her. “Drinking alone is never a good lookkk,” he whispered.
Matt turned to leave, but stopped out of curiosity when he and saw the paused shot from a video that he'd never seen before on the television. He pulled the remote control from Violet's hand and pressed play.
Show me the face you'd make if he proposes, Rose continued.
Violet placed her hands on her cheeks and gasped dramatically. Matthewwww, it's so beautifullll! Yes! Yes, of course I'll marry you!
Rose giggled. Perfect! And I better be your maid of honor, bitch.
Wait, what's this about maid of honor?! Naomi shouted from across the room.
Nothinggg, Violet assured. At least not until we open presents, the woman said hopefully. Keep the camera rolling.
“Damn,” Matt exhaled. “Wait, this is...after I overheard her, so-”
What'd you get, Vi? Rose asked as she continued to film everyone open their gifts.
I don't know yetttt, Violet said excitedly as she pried into the small box. And it doesn't say who it's frommm. The woman beamed from ear to ear only to have her face fall when she finally got the box open and saw the watch.
Do you love it, sweetheart? her father asked.
Oh, this is from you, Dad? Yeah, it's beautiful.
As Matt continued to watch the video, he noticed how Violet became more and more anxious after each gift. At the time, what he thought was bitterness and resentment, was actually disappoint that he hadn't gone through with his proposal.
Are there anymore gifts for Violet?! the woman shouted.
Once you have a baby, all your gifts become gifts for them, Rose informed.
Yeah but... nevermind. The camera caught Violet pushing herself off of the couch and making her way towards Matt.
“God, I look miserable,” the man groaned when he saw himself on the screen.
Violet's words couldn't be made out, but Matt did his best to read her lips.
Are you okay?
I was, he replied as he downed another glass of eggnog.
Oh...well, I hope you're having a good time. Clark is really enjoying her first Christmas.
I'm only here for her, Matt slurred before the camera panned the room.
“Damn it,” the man hissed as he paused the video. “So much fucking time wasted…for nothing.” Matt reached out to stroke the woman's hair but then stopped. “All those times I was mean or when I knew she wanted affection-”
“Hmm?” Violet groaned as she stirred in her sleep.
“Baby,” Matt cooed, sliding onto the couch beside her. He kissed her neck then her jaw.
“Matthewww,” she slurred. “It's too hotttt.” When Violet attempted to push him away, she ended up rolling herself off of the couch, hitting the hardwood in a muffled thump. “Ow.”
The man suppressed his laugh until he saw the woman's expression. “You look like Grumpy Clark.”
Violet snorted. “Help me up?”
Matt leaned over to assist the woman, but she pulled him onto the floor next to her. The man didn't seem to mind as he walked his fingers along her collarbone.
“Violet?”
“Whattttt?”
“You know I love you, right?”
“I don't know. You want me to eat garlic and break up and-”
“No, no, no, I didn't mean it. I mean, I did at the time, but I was mistaken.”
“But when I say I don't mean something, you get all mad,” she hiccuped. “I hate your double standards and I hate youuu.”
“You don't hate me,” he said as he rolled on top of the woman.
“Oh my God, you're fattt. You're going to make me puke.”
“Puke on me if you have to, I deserve it.”
“Nooo, Matthew,” the tipsy women groaned. “You're beautiful and you deserve the world.”
“Awe...you really feel that way or are you just drunk?”
“Both.”
Matt laughed and kissed her. “I'm sorry for being such an asshole to you all these years.”
“It's okay, Matthew. Just get off of me.”
The man stole another kiss before finally giving Violet some breathing room. “You won't believe what I found earlier,” she slurred as she struggled to get to her feet. When she did, she popped in the DVD marked with the bright red X.
Oh, fuck, Matthewww, Violet moaned on the screen.
“Whoa!” Matt exclaimed. “When did we make this?”
“I don't know...back when you still cared about me. Back when we made love and not that rough, cold stuff that makes you just roll over and go to sleep when you're finished without kissing me goodnight.”
The man knew that he was guilty of making the woman feel that way and he wanted it to end. Matt pushed himself off of the couch and approached Violet from behind. As he wrapped his arms around her waist his lips found her neck.
“Mmm,” she exhaled.
Matt eased the straps of the woman's nightgown off of her shoulders causing the silk negligee to fall to the floor, leaving Violet in nothing but her favorite pink thong. The man smiled as he slowly ran his hands along her arms and then her breasts. Violet turned around and their lips met in a tender kiss. Matt gently glided his hands along her curves, stopping at her ass which he cupped to lift the woman. She wrapped her legs around his waist, making it even easier for the man to walk backwards until they flopped onto the couch.
They laughed and continued to kiss while Violet's hands fumbled with Matt's belt but he stopped her.
“I wanna take care of you tonight. I have two years to make up for.”
The man eased the woman onto the cushions but she wouldn't release her legs.
“Not on the couch,” she whispered.
Matt smirked and kissed her. “Come on, big baby.”
He lifted her off of the couch and bolted towards the stairs.
“Waittttt, don't forget my nightgown.”
“You don't need that,” he assured.
“Yeah, but neither does the floorrrr. If you don't get it now, it's all I'll be able to think about."
Matt groaned and retaliated against the woman's difficultness with a firm bite on her neck before doubling back and picking up the negligee then rushing up the steps. Instead of tossing her onto the bed, Matt gently eased his lover onto the mattress and took his time to practically worship every inch of her body with tender kisses.
“Nooo, Matthewwww,” Violet squealed. “Not my feetttt.”
The man laughed and tussled with the woman until he was able to kiss the top of her foot.
“I'm never kissing you again.”
He laughed. “You kiss me after I go down on you.”
“Yeah, but my cooch is pristine.”
“And your feet aren't?”
“I guess you have a point.”
Matt kissed the woman's freshly pedicured big toe. “I have no problem appreciating every part of your body, whether you think it's gross or not.”
Violet smirked while she rolled her eyes. Those same tawny brown eyes rolled into the back of her head when Matt kissed her thong. The thin cotton was the only thing that separated her throbbing clit from the man's eager mouth.
The woman gently gnawed on her bottom lip as Matt's nibbling and warm air from his exhales gave her new and exotic sensations that quickly began to drive her crazy.
When Matt could feel how wet the woman was through the thong, he knew that he'd teased her enough. He pinched the thin pink straps that clung to her hips and slowly slid them down.
“I hate youuu,” Violet playfully grumbled.
He frowned. “Why?”
“Stop teasing me.”
The man grinned and tossed the woman's panties over his shoulder.
“Nooo, Matthew, you have to put them in the hamper.”
“Can't it wait? I-” Matt relented when she gave him the look. He retrieved the thong and sniffed it as he made his way to the bathroom.
“You're so grossss,” Violet said as she bashfully covered her face.
“If loving everything about you, inside and out, is gross, then I don't wanna be... whatever the opposite of gross is.”
The woman laughed but didn't remove her hands from her face as Matt positioned himself between her legs. He returned to giving the woman soft kisses along her inner thighs and vaginal lips, but he didn't want to torture her completely so he took her clit into his mouth sooner rather than later.
The man started with gentle sucking with the occasional firm lick thrown in.
Violet finally removed her hands from her face. One found its way to the sheets while the other found Matt's hair as she gripped it. “That feels so good.”
“I'm just getting started,” Matt assured as he added the swirling of his tongue to the mix. The man traced rhythmic patterns along Violet's entrance and love button, listening as the woman's breathing became more labored.
“Matthew, you never do thissss,” Violet panted. “It's usually so r-ushed!” she squealed when the man began to shake his head from side to side with her clit still nestled between his smooth lips.
It only took a few more minutes of this before she began to tingle all over.
“Oh my Godddd. I'm cominggg.”
Matt didn't even need the heads up as the sweet and tangy taste of the woman flooded his mouth. He didn't waste a single bit of it and even used it to lube up his fingers before slowly sliding them into the woman. In addition to his gentle sucking, Matt knew exactly what angle to thrust his fingers in order to find her G-spot. He always knew that he'd found the tender bundle of nerves when Violet arched her back.
“Fuckkk,” Violet moaned as she arched her back.
The man curled his fingers upward and firmly massaged the sensitive spot.
“Ahh,” she groaned in pleasure as she tightened her grip on the sheets and Matt's hair. “You're so good, baby, oh my Godddd.”
It wasn't long before the woman was climaxing again and Matt enjoyed every second of her sugar walls contracting around his fingers. He took advantage of the human slip-n-slide as he began to vigorously work his hand up and down.
Violet tried to pull away but Matt held her in place and continued until she begged him to stop.
“Fuck,” she whimpered weakly.
Matt kissed the woman all over her trembling body as he undid his belt. After dropping his trousers, he distracted Violet by taking her lips so that she wouldn't notice him toss his clothes to the floor. The woman heard the soft thump, but she was too far gone to care.
Matt fished a condom out of the nightstand and ripped it open prior to sliding the rubber onto his rock hard dick.
“Are you okay?”
Violet nodded.
“Are you ready for this?”
“I don't know, but I'm willing to try. I mean, I feel so amazing already.”
“Welp, I told you I'm just getting started.”
Matt grabbed the woman's thighs and slowly pulled her towards him prior to rubbing his cock against her clit.
“Mmm.”
After making sure that the woman’s engines were still warm, Matt aligned his dick with Violet's entrance and slowly slid into her. They both sighed in pleasure as they adjusted to being so intimately connected.
“That never gets old,” Matt exhaled.
“What never gets old?”
“Your face when I put it in.”
Violet blushed. “It feels good.”
The man smiled and kissed the woman as he pulled out and then slowly pushed back in. He made sure that Violet could feel every inch of him as he kept his strokes steady and deep, causing her to pant with each movement.
Matt took advantage of the missionary position and stared into the woman's tawny brown eyes. The couple hadn't been this intimate during sex in nearly two years and the man nearly forgot how perfect the woman's expressions were.
“Fuck, you're so beautiful,” he exhaled.
Violet buried her face into the crook of Matt's neck as she secured her arms and legs around his body while the man continued to thrust into her.
“I'm gonna come.”
Matt was surprised. “Already?”
“Yes,” she whimpered before digging her nails into his back.
“That's not an orgasm,” Matt scoffed as he sat up, pulled the woman's legs over his shoulders and began to roughly pound into her.
“Oh my God!” Violet moaned out as her toes curled and her fists twisted in the sheets. “Shittttt!”
“Now that's an orgasm,” the man proudly panted.
The woman continued to moan, groan and convulse.
Matt kissed her foot. “You okay?”
“Yes,” she managed to get out.
“You had enough?”
Violet shook her head. “It feels too good.”
Matt grinned and repositioned them so that Violet was on top.
“Shit,” the woman moaned as she adjusted to Matt being so deep inside of her. She closed her eyes and slowly began to ride the man while Matt caressed her breasts.
He loved seeing how Violet's hair fell to the sides of her face and how she exhaled through parted lips, letting out the occasional 'Fuck’ whenever the stroke was just right.
Matt caressed the woman's body all over but when he reached her hips, she stopped him.
“What?”
“Nothing,” she panted as she returned his hands to her boobs.
He made a face. “What's up?”
Violet sighed. “I don't want you to feel my ripples.”
“Ripples?”
“My stretch marks!”
Matt attempted to look but Violet palmed his face. “Stopppp.”
“Babe, you don't even have stretch marks.”
“Yes, I do,” she sniveled. “You just haven't noticed because you're used to a quick fuck from behind.”
“Not even,” Matt retorted. “I like when you're on top too,” he joked. It earned him a playful pop on the chest. “In all seriousness, I've never seen a stretch mark on you and if there is, there's nothing wrong with that.”
Violet frowned and guided the man's hand to her hips so that he could feel the scars. “I noticed it a while after Clark was born. My body went through the craziest fluctuations.”
When Matt saw that the woman was visibly upset over the change in her body, he grabbed her hand and interlocked their fingers.
“Can I look at it?”
Violet paused before she reluctantly nodded and dismounted when Matt eased her off of his lap. The woman laid on her stomach and buried her face into the pillow while the man examined the two pale scars on her hip.
“Babe, these are badass.”
“Really?” she replied, voice muffled by the pillow.
“Well, for one, they're barely noticeable. But babe, guess what? You carried a life. Without you, Clark wouldn't be here and I'm so grateful for that. You should be proud of these tiger stripes. I know I am.”
Violet peeked up at him. “Are you sure?”
“Yes, woman! Do you need proof? Like-” He licked her hip where the stretch marks were.
“Ewww!” Violet squealed.
“I told you that you look amazing. You're perfect, you're beautiful, you look better than Linda Evangelista, okay? You're a model. No part of your body grosses me out. You could sneeze on me and I'd probably thank you.”
The woman laughed before Matt met her lips and stole a kiss.
“You ready for more?”
“Mm hmm.”
Matt climbed off of the mattress and when Violet followed suit, they smooched before he gently bent her over the bed. The man showered the woman's shoulders, back and ass with more kisses before he slid his cock into her entrance. He started off with slow and steady strokes prior to adding deep, forceful thrusts that made the woman moan his name every time he tapped her G-spot.
“You feel so good, baby,” he panted.
“So do yo- fuckkk,” Violet groaned as her legs began to shake. “I'm coming,” she squealed.
“How many orgasms is that?” Matt smugly asked.
“I don't knowww,” the trembling woman groaned into her pillow.
Matt pulled out, lifted Violet back onto the bed and positioned his head between her legs before wrapping his mouth around her clit.
The woman's back involuntarily arched. Her body was near the brink, but she didn't want the pleasure to stop. In addition to licking and working his tongue, Matt added his fingers to the mix. Once they found Violet's G-spot the woman began to tremble even harder.
“Fuck! Shittt! Matthewwww, okay, okayy! Stop!” she pleaded as she squirmed.
After pulling away, Matt sat up and slid his cock into Violet's sensitive entrance. The woman winced, but she didn't tell him to stop as he began to pound into her.
Matt enjoyed every moment of Violet's animalistic moaning and as his own toes began to curl, he buried his face into the crook of her neck.
“I'm coming,” he whispered against her goosebump covered skin. “Fuck.” As Matt moaned and filled the condom, Violet convulsed and whimpered when the man pulled out.
“I love you,” Matt exhaled, kissing her face, neck and collarbone while he waited for her pleasure induced convulsions to stop. “Did you get enough?” he teasingly asked as he gently touched her clit.
Violet flinched at the contact. “Don't,” she whimpered. “God, it's so sensitive.”
“I hope this makes up for the past two years.”
“It m-m-makes up for the last five years, plus a t-ten year cr-credit,” she managed to get out while she steadily trembled. “God, Matthew!”
“Whatttt?”
“It was amazing. I literally can't stop shaking.”
“Did I rupture a nerve or something?”
“I don't knowww.”
“Well, you're still beautiful. Even if you are all twitchy.”
Violet laughed and pulled the man into a kiss. The couple's lips remained connected until Violet's body finally managed to calm down. Matt pulled her into a cuddle and when the duo was practically asleep, Violet grumbled.
“Matthew.”
“Hm?”
“Put your clothes in the hamper.”
---
“Good morninggggggg!” Clark shouted into the walkie talkie her parents had gifted her to prevent awkward moments such as walking into their bedroom to see her father's naked butt in the air.
Matt groaned as he blindly reached for the device.
“Are you guys awakeeeee?”
When he found the walkie talkie, Matt pushed the button and spoke into the microphone. “Good morning, Supergirl. How did you sleep?”
“Good,” she chirped. “What about you?”
“I'm still tired,” he grumbled.
“Well, I would let you go back to sleep, but I'm hungry. Can I have pancakes?”
“You certainly can have pancakes. Start brushing your teeth and washing your face. I'll be right out.”
“Thanks, boss man,” she said with a giggle before hanging up.
Matt turned to Violet who was flat on her back and snoring. He knew that the toxic combination of alcohol and great sex would have the woman out for awhile. The man smirked as he kissed her cheek prior to pushing himself off of the bed. After he brushed his teeth and splashed water on his face, Matt made his way to Clark's bathroom. He peeked around the corner and found the toddler brushing her dark curls.
“12...84...26...19...41,” she said as she counted the brush strokes.
“Good morning, sweetheart,” Matt greeted.
“Hi, Daddy!” Clark squealed, dropping her brush prior to jumping into his arms.
“Gonna help me cook?”
“Mm hmm.”
Matt carried the girl down the stairs then into the kitchen.
“Okay, chef Clark, get your Batgirl apron on and we'll get started.”
After he grabbed a medium sized bowl, Matt let the toddler dump in the the pancake mix and pour in the water before he stirred. When the ingredients were lump free, he dolloped some of the mix onto her nose.
“Heyyy!” In retaliation, the toddler stuck her finger in the batter and smeared it on her father's cheek.
“Ahhh, you got me!”
Clark laughed as her dad guided her to the barstool, far away before he proceeded to pour the mix onto the hot griddle, making the mini pancakes just the way that Clark liked them.
When he was finished, he presented the toddler with a plateful of tiny pancakes and a generous helping of syrup while he settled next to her with his BLT.
“Yummy, yummy,” she said, kicking her legs while she ate.
“Clark?”
“Yes, Daddy?”
“I need your help with something.”
“You need my help with what?”
“I want to marry Mommy, so I need your help figuring out how to propose to her.”
Clark slammed both of her sticky hands onto the table. “Now you want my help?! I told you that Mommy loved you a long time ago and you did not want to be her boyfriend but nowwww,” she said as she rolled her eyes, “you want to marry her?!”
“Sssshhhhh! She'll hear you. And yes, little lady. I want to marry her.”
The toddler groaned and stuffed another mini pancake into her mouth.
“Are you Grumpy Clark right now?”
The frown on her face didn't budge as she continued to eat her pancakes.
“Come on, boo, don't be like that. Don't you want to help Daddy?”
Clark rolled her eyes.
“Heyyy, if we have a big wedding, you can eat all the cupcakes you want.”
She paused. “Cupcakes?”
“Yeah, cupcakes. And you get to wear a pretty dress. Maybe even with a cape.”
Her eyes grew wide in excitement. “Okay, I'll help you!”

Engagement Photoshoot | Creating your own photoshoot on a budget: Beaufort, SC
I had the privilege of taking photos for our dear friends for their engagement. Unfortunately, with COVID and everyone kind of being off their normal schedules and booked up to catch up on appointments, they needed some photos quickly and couldn’t find a professional photographer to take photos in time. I had mentioned that I love taking photos and would be willing to help them out if they needed so when she came to me I was both excited and honored. I was nervous though because I wanted these photos to be the best quality that I could produce. These were their engagement photos, the photos that they will look back at and remember the moments leading up to the big day. Luckily, this is a fun hobby of mine so I was ready to take on the job.
I figured why not share how to create a wonderful engagement shoot on budget with you all. Don’t get me wrong, I am all for splurging on photos that will hang on your wall for a lifetime, but for some the timing doesn’t work out, a pandemic might get in the way and change all you plans, or you want to save money on a photographer for the REAL big day. I am sharing some tips for making a photo shoot work on a budget.
Camera Quality
If you don’t have a camera, you can either ask a friend or rent one. There are many sites that you can rent a camera. One quick google search and you will find plenty. I bought a Canon off of the Facebook market place and it has been the greatest investment. I am not a professional so I didn’t need anything crazy, but when you find yourself in moments like this it’s nice to have a good one. For less than $150, I found someone selling a camera with two different lenses, the power strip, a couple memory cards, a couple batteries, a camera bag and case. Keep your eye out for these deals. You would be surprised what people are selling and what deal you can score! Also, don’t underestimate the power of the new phones. For my blog, I often just use my IPhone. You can get some really good shots with it and with a little editing, you can make photos look professional in no time.
Locations
Wherever you are going to be taking photos, scout the area and have some places in mind. For this photoshoot, I knew I wanted to take them to this beautiful old train stop that is along a trail. It has this beautiful warehouse building you can walk through! I also spotted a beautiful hotel downtown and the beach. However, when we went to each place, I took photos all over. I thought Dylan was going to get sick of me when I had him running all over the hotel in every corner. We went along the staircases, found random benches, little hiding areas with shade, and even next to a service entrance. I am telling you, try everything. One photo was even off to the side in a corner by some greenery. At first, it didn’t look like the most appealing spot, but after finding a good angle to hide this awful sign that would have ruined the photo, changing the focus (or aperture - not a professional but I think this was it), and taking a few snaps, we made it turn into the most beautiful spot. If you are in Beaufort, SC I highly recommend you check out these places for your next photos.
Beaufort, SC Locations
If you find yourself in Beaufort, check out the locations below to get some photos!
Spanish Moss Trail Train Depot
Beaufort Inn
Sands Beach
The Perfect Outfit
I am always one that thinks soft colors are perfect for photos. One thing I loved about Dylan and Jasmine is that he kept it simple in all black and let her outfit do the talking. You don’t want the photo to be busy, but having some patterns really helps with photos. My other big tip is don’t be so matchy - match. Don’t get me wrong, I love color coordination and a good family matching outfit, but sometimes mixing patterns or playing with what you got depending on the locations can really be cool too. I thinking focusing more on matching a theme of an outfit, then both wearing the same white shirts and khaki pants really helps. It can blend all together if it is too close to the same, but mixing can really accentuate the two people. It is important to think about the places you will be taking photos and the type of photos you want to get out of the shoot. Certain hair colors, skin tones, and eye colors can be pulled out based on your outfit so keep that in mind when deciding what to wear. I am no fashion stylist, but PINTEREST has many stylist that can help you for your body type and your aesthetic. Also, finding an outfit you are confident and comfortable is KEY. If you don’t have to fuss about what you are wearing and you feel good about yourself, you can just enjoy the moment and get those perfect candid shots. .
Being Prepared
Before we went, I pinned some really great poses just incase we needed some help. Often times, people can kind of freeze behind the camera. Having some poses in mind and just talking to them naturally as a photographer really helps. One thing with my friends I learned is by making little comments while they took photos really let everyone calm and relax and the beauty naturally came out. They were also great at coming up with their now poses, so my preparation wasn’t needed but it was great when we felt like we were doing the same things.
Another way to get prepared is to learn how to use your camera and the different settings. I am always learning but I did one quick youtube video tutorial and went outside with my camera to practice. It made me feel real professional when I was changing the aperture while taking their photos. I am telling you, I had never heard of that or knew that button existed on my camera until the tutorial. Be sure to try out your device before the photoshoot so you are comfortable as the photographer. When the photographer is confident to deliver, it helps take the photos. You know the whole saying, “Fake it til you make it, well mama I made it!”
Get creative
Don’t be scared to take a photo that you might think won’t work out. Get out of your comfort zone and get your models out of theres. There were many kissing photos, looking into each others eyes, hand placements and movements to make the photos. I also used natural props to help add more content to the photos. For example, I literally went behind a tree with the leaves obscuring the lens to get this cool out of focus photo. I thought it might be weird and turns out, it added an element I didn’t expect. I have seen people put panty hose over a lens or lace in front of the sun to create a cool lighting feature. There are so many people on social media that have some killer photo tips to capture these awesome photos. This is all trial and error too. Don’t be scared to fail or get a bad photo. Professional photographers definitely have more knowledge on this but it doesn’t mean you can’t give it a try. The worst that can happen is the photo doesn’t turn out and you move on to the next one.
PRESET
One big thing I have learned is that EDITING really enhances a photo and makes it look professional. You can take an average photo and with the right adjustments, you now have professional looking photos. There are so many editing tools to help you. My favorite is Lightroom, which I use for my blog photos and many of my friends who are photographers use it. If you aren’t keen on editing photos yourself, you can purchase a preset on Etsy or from other photographers and let the preset do the editing for you.
HAVE FUN and Keep snapping the photos.
My biggest takeaway from this photoshoot is that if you take 500 photos (Literally I had taken 572 to be exact!), you are bound to get some good photos somewhere. Keep snapping away to increase your chances and get the best photos. Walk around them to get different angles while they pose for you, get low and get
high to get that photo. I may or may not have sat on the floor too get a new angle that I thought was perfect. I am sure the people around me thought I was crazy, but hey its all in the job as a photographer. Keep the session fun, get them laughing and making jokes, have them kiss and smile and talk - I promise you will get the perfect photo. Let their personalities shine through in the photos, at the end of the day those are the photos you will cherish forever. Jasmine has this big, beautiful smile that worked to my advantage and Dylan just had this way of looking at her that made your heart melt. Those are the little things you want to capture because that is the story of them.
Sharing some photos below to help you with some ideas.
Below are some more ideas of photos if you find yourself preparing for an engagement session or planning to take one. I hope this helps and that your next photoshoot is everything you envisioned. Don’t be scared to try new things and take the shot! As I said this entire photoshoot with Dylan and Jasmine, “I am shooting my shot!”.
Also, I just wanted to give a special shout out to Dylan and Jasmine for letting me take their photos. They are literally the epitome of what true love looks like. The way they show their love in these photos I think is what made them turn out. The smiles and the realness was all credited to them. They made my job as pho-photographer really easy. Many best wishes in your marriage and I hope you treasure these photos forever! Share in the comments your favorite place to get photos done or take photos!
xoxo,
Jeana Hughes

Chapter 1: Forgotten?
A Picture when Pile, with her dogs, coincidentally meets Ucchi
As soon as Pile enters her home, she’s greeted by 2 toy poodles that were standing, jumping and softly barking.
“Aww you guys ♡, hihi”, says Pile as she lovingly hugs them.
Right after, she heads straight to her bedroom and decides to lay her bag on the bed.
She looks back and gazes upon the clock
‘It’s 9:15 p.m. already? Wow, I didn’t expect it to be that late...’ Pile has thought to herself,
but then she blinks quickly in realization-
“HOLD ON! That’s still, in fact, early for me! I have no bedtime!”
As Pile sorts out her bag, unexpectedly, a light shines out of nowhere in the side pocket, causing her heart to skip a beat.
She places her right hand on her chest and lightly sighs as she realizes right away that it was her phone.
“There’s A LOT of notifications. How’d it get to such amount? Have I not checked my phone?- Oh that’s right, I had set it on silent since I had a live today~ must have forgotten.”
She sits down on the side of her bed and scrolls through all of her missed notifications.
You can see how much happiness she’s filled with, as she laughs and smiles, reading through all of her birthday greetings.
But when she looks up at the ceiling and sighs in a sign of disbelief, right there and there, the atmosphere has changed its mood.
She looks back at her phone for about a minute without saying anything, nor having any facial expressions.
‘Everyone seemed to have greeted me, and the only ones who haven’t are those in-
Her eyebrows furrow.
‘Mimori is the only one who has tweeted me a birthday greeting, but still....’
‘They couldn’t have forgotten, could they? Are they planning a surprise perhaps?...No, that can’t be the case since I have no plans with them, nor was I invited to anything.’
“It’s 9:38 p.m. already....Last time we chat was 3 days ago....”, Pile’s voice shifts to a nervous tone in the latter, “and I don’t even want to remember what it was about (•~•) ....”
The birthday girl grips her phone with her left hand, while she rests her chin on the palm of her right. Her mind is piled up with so many questions, choices, and decisions, as she asks herself of what she must do.
‘Shall I remind them?’
Her eyes are now starting to shift to different places…
‘Or maybe at least give a clue about it?- ’
“No No No, that’s not you Eriko! That’s a bit selfish of you...Is it even a selfish act though??
Gah, I don’t even know anymore…Why am I so desperate?”
The μ’s girls are very precious to her. Well, LoveLive! is the main reason as to why her career as a singer became successful.
Poor girl, her mind rambles on several ideas, options, and disagreements. And after the live she just had today, and with all these thinking, she just got her brain all worn out.
“Aaaagh”, she lays herself on the mattress, covering her eyes with the back of her right’s forearm.
Flashbacks then come to her mind of each of her Love Live! μ’s colleague’s birthday celebration. Last that has come in was Kussun’s, she felt a bit jealous as to how grand of a surprise it was. But even so, she lightly smiles as to remembering those moments.
“They just can’t forget…I had a live show and the fact that Mimori tweeted me, how could they not be informed that it’s my 30th birthday…”
The light brunette is now filled with negative emotions such as sadness and disappointment, but actually it is more on confusion and disbelief.
She wants to cry them all out but decides to not to and tries to recall all the positive episodes that have happened today. It is her birthday after all, she does not want to end this special day with such negativity.
9:24 a.m.
Pile opens her eyes halfway. She tries to recollect herself as she sits up, pulling her knees close to her. She hugs em and rests her chin on top.
After about 3 mins, she notices that she did not change clothes from yesterday’s live and the fact that she did not take an evening shower, she rushes to the bathroom to freshen up.
As Pile prepares her breakfast, she hears a familiar ringtone coming from the living room.
‘Who can be calling?’
As she glances over her phone,
her eyes widen and immediately answers the call-
“SU-CHAN!”
“AH! Pai-chan, you seem hyper first thing in the morning....
By the way, that’s the 100th time you’ve screamed my name whenever you answer my calls.”
“Really Suzuko? Out of all the numbers, it just had to be 100?”
“Hehe....Yes. ANYWAYS, could you make me matcha green tea? I’ll be there in a few seconds-“
“Wait, WHAT?”
“Bye Pileeee”
Mimori hungs up
‘Huuuh?! In seconds?! How close by is she???!’, Pile thinks out to herself as she prepares the necessities for the requested tea.
Even with the certain amount of confusion going about in her head, Pile’s mood has certainly shifted to excitement.
Ding dong
And there she goes dashing down the entrance hallway. Her footsteps can be heard by her friend waiting outside; she too was also a member of Love Live! μ’s.
A Picture of Mimori and Chocolat-chan
“Eh? Do I look like a ghost to you?”
“Why a ghost?”
“Because your face said it all when you burst opened the door.”
“Yes Suzuko- OF COURSE NOT. Since when was someone happy seeing a ghost?!”
“Uhm...ghostbusters, hehehe”, Mimori grins to her answer as Pile’s face turns into someone annoyed or unamused. ( ^∀^)/(−_−;)
“Then maybe I am a ghostbuster, and that means to say that you DO look like a ghost.”, Pile says in a sarcastic tone.
“Correction.... A beautiful ghost“, says Mimori in reply with her signature Mimo wink at the end.
“Haha, funny-“
The kettle begins to rustle, alerting Pile.
“Oh! That’s for your tea!”, Pile runs back and asks Mimori to close the door for her instead.
As Mimori rests herself on the couch, found in the living room, she unleashes Chocolat in order to play with Pile’s dogs.
“Su-chan, why are you here anyways?”, Pile approaches with the tea Mimori asked for.
“Well, I wanted to hang out with you in the mall. I decided to fetch you instead of meeting you up there.” Mimori takes a sip and places the tea on top of the wooden coffee table in front of them.
Pile’s eyes starts to widen, because the first thing that comes into her mind is perhaps a birthday surprise.
“But why inform me in matter of seconds before your arrival?”
“Uhm...SURPRISE-“
“Not buying that...”
“Fineee...it was your birthday after all. You had a live show yesterday and I was pretty sure that you’d be busy and tired for the day. But really, I wanted to surprise ya of my visit. I want to celebrate your birthday, just you and me, like last year when we did with mine.”
“You shouldn’t have informed me then, that way it would’ve been more of a surprise... Plus, after your call, you had me more confused than being surprise-“
“No. You were mostly excited than being confused AND surprised.”, Mimori smirks. Embarrassed, Pile looks away from Mimori and acts like Maki by saying her famous line, “Nani sore, imi wakannai!”.
Pile then thinks to herself,
‘Could the rest of the girls be waiting for us in the mall to surprise me? They must’ve tasked Mimori to fetch me.’
“Are you really trying to act like Maki-chan? Hehe, can’t forget about μ’s?”, asks Mimori.
“OF COURSE NOT!”, Pile abruptly shouts in a way that caused Mimori to flinch.
“Woa, Pile...a-are you alright?”
She then returns to her normal self when Mimori asked her the question.
“Oh no. I’m sorry...I didn’t mean to...”
“It’s fine, I just didn’t think that you would react that way.”, Mimori smiles in order for Pile to calm down.
“Right...Well, imma dress up now.”, Pile stands up and heads straight to the staircase.
“Don’t wear anything formal by the way, I am not treating you to a very grand restaurant or anything.”
“Awww whatt...Yea yea I know, and besides- I had planned to wear my Nishikino Maki Animal Hoodie.”
“Why not the jersey one like mine?”
“I don’t want to be matchy-matchy with your Umi Jersey Jacket. I just want us to be wearing something similar in concept.”
Mimori takes a sip off her tea.
“Pfffft...matchy-matchy? Yours doesn’t even have the exact same design as mine. You’re just shy because we would look lik- HEY! WAS I TALKING TO NO ONE?!”
‘Hmph she left me, and now I feel embarrassed because it looked as if I was talking to MYSELF.....
Although Pile,
Flashback
that was the first time I’ve heard you reply in a very sharp and serious tone, and yet the topic was about μ’s….Did something happen...?‘
“I’m done!”
The lady that was left alone raises an eyebrow, “And you’re not sorry?”
“Sorry for what?”
“For leaving me while I was talking? Never mind then...hmph!”
“Wait I did? All I heard was “pffft”, then I thought you were gonna pout and force me to follow what you want, so I left.”
“Amazing Pile, simply amazing”, Mimori slowly claps.
“Don’t worry Su-chan, I know your style heh.”
Pile winks back at Mimori and heads down to the entrance hall, where her shoe room can also be found. But then a loud scream is heard,
“AAH!”
“Su-chan, what’s the matter?!”, Pile runs back.
“Oh! Sorry, sorry...
Chocolat-chan ran and bumped into the coffee table, and then the tea spilled onto your floor. I’m really sorry.”
“Oh no, it’s okay, I’ll clean it up. This will also serve as my apology for leaving you.”
“No no, I’ll also help clean….
BUUUuuT, since you didn’t want to be “matchy-matchy”, at least let me be the one to choose your shoes.”
“Uh- is that necessary?”
“That will serve as your apology instead, hihi”
“ I trust you for choosing my shoes, but I want to pick for myself.”
“Aw c’mon, pretty pleeeeaaaseee?” Mimori does the puppy eyes since she knows it is irresistible, especially to Pile. And now Pile tries to look away, closing her own two eyes, but still opens one of them afterwards. Mimori is still doing it, and no matter what Pile does, she cannot find herself to say no.
Sweatdrop
“Mmmmmm...I should’ve seen this one coming...”, Pile lets out a sigh and smiles back at Mimori.
“Fine, you go pick. Just make sure it’ll match the hoodie I’m wearing.”
“Yey, hehehehe.” Mimori claps with her fingers rapidly as she goes to the shoe room.
“You really do act like a pre-schooler sometimes...well, most of the times.”
Mimori replies while looking back, “We both do… everyone in μ’s in fact.”
“Yea...”, the dark brunette looks at her dear friend with concern but shrugs it off before she notices.
