Day 7: Free Day

Just like last year, I bring you middle school AU for the final day 🫡 I hope you enjoyed the daily comics because it took a lot out of me LOL worth it of course

[matt0044]

In retrospect, it's pretty clear why Adrien wasn't there to learn Monarch was his father in The Final Day.

Namely because "Chat Blanc" and "Ephemeral" each explained why.

His intense emotions over seeing his mother and learning his father became a villain in order to save her would be too good of an opportunity to akumatize him against Ladybug.

Thus Adrien benching himself is essentially the reason why Marinette was able to knock the Moth Miraculous off Gabriel and talk him down.

However... this only means that there's an extra layer of despair painted upon what would've been Adrien's angst over his father's dark secret. Clearly, his father's "sacrifice" is what keeps him going in believing his final moments were heroic.

So what happens when Adrien learns that not only was his father trying to bring back Emilie and became a villain to do so but that he also went out after causing Operation: Alliance to start with. No way to confront his father about this reveal and even Nathalie would be hard pressed for a straight answer.

Hell, I can imagine him crossing the line and forcing Plagg to spill the beans at his direct command. He and Marinette have been good in never, if ever, enforcing rules upon Tikki or Plagg so... woo.

And with Lila likely possessing this information be it from what Hoaxer got out of Nathalie or Nooroo, something tells me that we're in for something far, FAR worse than Chat Blanc if that's even feasibly possible. Perhaps only that the Lucky Charm can't easily undo.

Aaaaaaaaaand that's why there was more of a benefit to keep Adrien to the side for Season 5's finale. If you can't feel the storm that's slowly brewing, better get an umbrella now.

Consistency? I don't know her. There's a few things I'd like to fix up, but I need to get back to work on other things. Another one that started out as a fic draft - so I might go back and flesh it out more in text. ✌️😴

30 Day Writing Challenge: Day 30 the final day

ESCAPING REALITY

"Let's get out of here."

DISCLAIMER: i have never made-out with anyone, kissed anyone, or been intimate with anyone ever before. i know i'm a total noob, so i sincerely apologize if this isn't spicy enough for some people, is boring, or is so virgin-coded lmfao. i also didn't go crazy, because Sam and Danny have a make-out session in "The Wolves of Woodsboro" so i didn't want to be too repetitive. anyways, enjoy ♡ or don't.

“I should get back…” Sam sighed, lying on her side with her head in Danny’s lap as she stared at the flashing pictures on the television. She blinked slowly as his hand moved over her face to brush her hair back.

“Why?” he quizzed, “You said Tara was gonna be out at her film class party until 11:00.”

She didn’t move, just gave a small shrug. “I know, but…” 

If she didn’t leave now, she wasn’t going to. With the end of the semester coming up, Tara had been out late many nights to meet up with her peers and study for finals. This left Sam lonely after work, so she’d been going over to Danny’s apartment to spend time with him. It’s not that Tara would have the time to spend time with her, even if she was home, but just not being alone in the apartment was comforting. However, Danny was always there and Sam had grown quite attached to him recently. Maybe it was her hormones spiraling from the approaching, yet notorious ‘time of the month’, but she knew what she felt and that was the desire to be near him. 

And he knew it too. “What? Are you finally trying to get away from me?” he teased and nudged her by jerking his knee a little when she didn’t respond. “Hmm?”

“No,” she chuckled and tilted her head over her shoulder to meet his blue gaze. “It’s just…” She moved onto her back, feeling him glide his fingers through her roots and along her scalp as she explained, “If I don’t leave now, then I’m never gonna leave.” Her eyes dropped.

Danny shrugged. “Who says you have to?”

Okay, he had her, but at the same time, he was playing off of his own attachment to her. Sam knew that; however, it didn’t stop the small smile that pulled her lips. “Come on, Danny, you know what I mean.”

He still played innocent, “Do I? I’m not so sure I do.” His smile, which was wider than hers, gave him away.

She then sat up and turned around to face him. She tilted her head and raised an eyebrow, “Are you really going to make me say it?”

“Oh, absolutely.”

She scoffed and shook her head, dropping her gaze to the sofa cushions as if she had to formulate the right words to say. There was silence between them for a few moments, before he called her name.

“Sam.”

Her dark eyes immediately rose to meet the calm ocean shimmering in his light ones. He tilted his head in a gesture, inviting her onto his lap, “Come here…” 

Like a dog guilty of chewing up a shoe, Carpenter ducked her head a little as she obeyed, crawling over to him and settling herself on his lap. She leaned against him, letting him guide her legs in close so he could put one arm around them, while the other supported her back. Then, he pressed a loving kiss to her temple, and oh, did that make her not want to leave even more.

Danny let his forehead rest against the side of hers for a moment. Even after all this time, she was still on edge about the amount of time she spent with him in their relationship. Maybe she was afraid that Tara would think she was being replaced, or maybe she was afraid of becoming too dependent. But she shouldn’t have to worry about those things. He knew old habits die hard, which was why he often played his cards convincing her to let go and let loose. There was no more Ghostface, no more running, no more uncertainty, and no more inability to trust. 

Yet, that wasn’t the issue. It was her own self that she didn’t trust for whatever reason.

“Have you ever heard the phrase, ‘unable to stay, unwilling to leave’?” he asked her. 

She scoffed. “You mean like the track from Titanic?”

He smirked. “It suits you pretty well.”

“Is that supposed to be a compliment or an insult?”

“You choose.”

Sam rolled her eyes and looked over to have their eyes meet. “What are you trying to say?”

Her partner traced circles on the side of her thigh with his fingertips. “You claim you can’t stay here, but you dread the thought of leaving,” he explained, noting the small shade of rouge present in her cheeks, “Do you need help making a decision?” He reached his fingers father up her leg to nearly slip beneath her shorts.

She instinctively glanced down at the touch, then returned her attention as she pulled his hand away with her own. “You sound like you have something in mind…” 

And at those words, his softened smile grew back into one of certainty. “Maybe…” He watched her eyebrows raise a little as she gave a small nod that encouraged him to share. “Let’s get out of here.” She blinked at him, her captivating eyes caught in his as she looked between both irises. He shook his head. “Let’s just get out of here,” he repeated with a little more enthusiasm. He pulled her in closer, “Just for a little bit. Can we?”

But she shook her head and shyly looked away, “No.” Though, she couldn’t break her smile.

“Yeah,” he countered, holding her against him so she couldn’t escape.

“No, Danny—”

“Mm-hmm. Why not?”

By now, she was undoubtedly blushing. “Because Tara—”

“Hey,” he cut her off and gently took her chin to make her look at him. “She knows where you are.”

This was true. Tara always knew where Sam was, and Sam always knew where Tara was. If Sam wasn’t home by the time she got home, her little sister already knew that she was safe where she was. But the older Carpenter always played hard-to-get, leaving her to still avoid eye contact with her boyfriend as she remained silent.

He kissed her cheek, moving his hand from her chin to hold the side of her face. “Hmm?”

She just answered with a sigh. He kissed her again, which made her give him a warning glance that was not serious in the slightest.

This just made Danny chuckle, and he trapped her in his arms to shower her face and neck with kisses, leaning her back a little to tease her. He kept on, until she broke down into defeated giggles.

“Alright, fi-hine! You win,” she managed, cringing a little as he nuzzled her jawline. 

He gave another chuckle and pulled away from her to find her eyes blinking to stare up at him. They were now glowing in desire, and he knew she now wanted him just as much as he wanted her. “Still wanna leave?” he tested.

Samantha didn’t give him a verbal reply, just raised one arm around his neck to pull him into a proper kiss. She felt him melt into it immediately, and suddenly, the sound of the television and humming of the air conditioning was blocked out so all they knew were each other.

Not breaking contact, Brackett lowered his girlfriend down all the way to have her lay on the couch. She kept her engaging hand on the back of his neck, while he felt the other gently curl into his shoulder. He kept her wish to keep him close as he untangled himself enough to crouch on top of her. One hand gripped the edge of the cushion to straddle her in place, and he used the other to cup beneath her thigh.

They parted at the same time, Sam sighing from the duration, while Danny dipped his head to brush his nose along her cheek and into her hair.

Escaping reality was always better than existing in it.

She turned her face a little to give his jawline a couple of soft kisses, before sliding her hand away from his neck to guide him to her lips again. Her head tilted into it, a spark of a warm flame flickering in her chest. She stretched her arm down and clawed the hem of his shirt.

In response, he squeezed her thigh, his hand high enough on it to nearly catch her hind end. He could feel the lean muscle she sported slide beneath her skin, while her nails clutched his shirt, catching his bare skin. She moaned into him, which made his lust for her grow. 

She sounded very different from her normal pitch whenever she moaned. It was higher and sometimes breathy, like she was desperate for the attention, especially when he had her beneath him. He was the only one who seemed to be able to dominate her. 

Samantha Carpenter was untamable, unbreakable, and the most mysterious person anyone could ever have the pleasure of knowing. But a rugged loner like Danny Brackett managed to bring out colors in her that she didn’t show to anyone. Anyone but him…

They broke apart again to have Sam pull her partner’s shirt over his head and off of his arms. He leaned down to trail slow kisses along her collarbone, while she gently sighed into his ear, placing her own generous pecks on his shoulder. His hand slipped beneath her shirt to start easing it up towards her chest. He squeezed her side, and a low rumble took hold of her occasional noises.

There came the times when she’d growl. Danny noticed that she normally did this when she was trying to fight her own arousal—the sexual urge to initiate intercourse when it wasn’t planned. But he knew the signs. The way she turned her head, the growling, the way her skin would heat up and she would start to pant before they even got into anything, seriously. He adored it all.

He hummed as she dipped her nose into the crook of his neck, her scent the only thing he could process. He drew his hand away from her side to trail his knuckles down her exposed stomach, feeling the definition of her abs when they tensed at his delicacy.

“Mmm—” She moaned through gritted teeth as he got down to the borderline of her pelvis, “Danny…” She couldn’t hold back the instinctive buck of her hips.

Her boyfriend shushed her though, retreating his unknowingly teasing hand to encourage her top up even further. “Shhh… it’s okay, baby,” he whispered. He felt her shudder in ecstasy, to which he lifted himself to meet her gaze.

Sam swallowed. “D-did you want to?”

He calmly replied, “Only if you want to.” For a moment, he thought she might force herself to snap out of it, but then she nodded and finished pulling her shirt over her head. He smiled and combed her hair back to its initial, neat placement. Then, he lowered himself close to her face again, which made her shrink back in submission. “There we go…”

She let out the smallest giggle that was more breathless than genuine, letting him press his forehead against hers. They held each other’s eyes for a long moment, Danny’s hand holding her at the flank of her chest, while her arm held him around his waist. Then, she closed her eyes as he shut his and gently rubbed his head against hers.

Sam smiled, and when he grew still again, she stole a quick kiss off his lips. “Do you wanna lead?” she asked him.

Danny curled his thumbnail beneath the band of her bra and tugged on it. Slowly but surely, he was training her out of her old habits. As many days as he had known her, there were still things he hadn’t memorized or discovered, but if anyone asked him, that’s what made loving her fun.

He was still learning, still burning, still wanting, still all-in, and still falling.

He nodded. “Okay.”

OMFG I'M DONE!! this was my first 30 day challenge and as much fun as i had doing it, i'm so happy it's over! But I'm even more happy that i completed it (even if i started it in early september and didn't finish until the LAST DAY OF NOVEMBER sshhhhhhhh)
