a democratically elected day in the life of klavier gavin, part one

Klavier loved mornings. He'd always been one to wake early--and one to lay down well into the night. Sleep wasn't something he seemed to need much of, and today was no different. Once he drank some liquid gold from his far-more-expensive-than-it-was-worth espresso machine, he was ready to take the day on. His morning routine was done in a blur. Dog walked, teeth brushed, face washed, makeup applied, hair styled. All that was left now was to get dressed. And that, unfortunately, was where he hit his first snag of the day.

Today was a special day. It was none other than the eighth anniversary of his very first album. A day that was met with glee by his fans, and terror by the rest of the world. Terror brought on by his fan's covering social media in his music, his face, and, most importantly, his outfit. He'd gone viral exactly seven years ago for wearing an outrageous outfit to court, much to the embarrassment of the prosecutor's office--and his older self. But it had become a tradition. No matter what he had planned for the day of this anniversary, he would wear something shocking in public, and then pretend that he had no idea his outfit was strange in any way. (Really, his younger self had been very immature.) This day was one recognized by music fans, members of the city's legal world, and anyone who ever so much as visited Tweeter on 2/9.

However.

There is always a "however."

Klavier was 95% sure that a certain popular culture-illiterate, greenhorn defense attorney had no idea of this tradition. And the two were sure to come face to face today. This tradition wasn't something Klavier thought he could explain without sounding idiotic or vapid, and he didn't want to drive Apollo Justice (the object of his desires) away from him, but he certainly couldn't let his fans down.

But this was no reason to panic. Klavier's wardrobe was vast enough that surely he could find an outfit that would satisfy his fans without disturbing Apollo. So he calmly and methodically worked through his closet until he had a few options to choose from.

First, he had his normal court outfit. His prosecuting uniform, as he liked to call it. This would be his "wimp out" outfit. In case he wimped out.

Next, he'd put together something a bit flashy, but not all that bad. High-heeled, knee length boots definitely stood out, but Apollo might not ever see those if Klavier stayed behind the bench. Then he had a bright fuchsia button-up shirt (with only two buttons buttoned) under a black jacket. And finally, black skinny jeans tucked into his boots and adorned with plenty of silver chains. ("A bunch of preps stared at me. I stuck my middle finger up at them" entered Klavier's mind, uninvited.) This would be a half-hearted effort at satisfying his fans.

The third outfit was something more for his fans. The smallest black dress he could wear without getting turned away from the courtroom (he'd memorized the courthouse dress code). Under that he would wear shimmery purple tights, and then there was a small, black hat with a feather in it, just to make it more interesting. Yeah, this was definitely just playing into sex appeal, but it was easier to justify to Justice than his next outfit.

Fourth was the kind of thing he'd normally wear on the anniversary. He had it made specially for an award show last year, but he ended up skipping it, so it was still unseen by the masses. A bodysuit of purple, glimmery scales underneath a crop top and high-rise jeans. The way a dragon might dress to go to the mall with her friends. Actually, there were several other dragon accessories (including wings), but just the scales were probably strange enough.

And fifth was perhaps even stranger than that. Red pants, a white button up shirt, and a red vest. Yes. He'd realized he had everything he needed to dress up as his courtroom opponent. Really, he wasn't even sure why he was considering it, but it was in the running, too, he supposed.

MASTERLIST

To be honest, I don't expect him to come back the morning after. And I wouldn't blame him. Meeting my parents when we're still handling this type of situationship, all while trying to dig into a trauma I didn't even know I had until a few days ago isn't the plan you'd go for if you could choose. He rushes to prove me wrong again, as he loves to do usually, when I get a text message from him.

Asshole: Hurry up, ur coffee will get cold.

I save my phone inside my back pocket, and collect my jacket and bag before I look around to make sure I'll leave everything as I should.

When I hop on the car, I barely can hold back my smile when I see him. And it's not something new. Jungkook just has that bright aura that's able to change the mood just by his presence. I'm also surprised he isn't wearing his usual black or gray outfits, and see he opted for a pink denim jacket over a white t-shirt.

—Did you dress up to meet my parents? —I tease him.

—First impressions are important —he hands me the coffee cup.

—You're going to support me, not ask for my hand in marriage.

Jungkook laughs, and asks me if I'm ready before he starts the engine to get the car back to the road. The weather is chilly, and I love how it started heating up once we entered the month of June -it definitely feels so nice to be able to open the window and feel the light breeze.

—Won't you be hot with that jacket on?

—Won't you be cold without a jacket on?

He snaps back, smirking when he sees I have no response to his question. June is definitely a confusing time. Basically, because once you step outside, you won't be able to tell what the weather actually is just by looking at people in the street.

—Why did you tint it black? —I play with one of his black locks in between my fingers.

—My hair was a mix of purple and black, it was looking awful already —I catch him trying to look at me through the corner of his eye—. Why? Are you missing the purple?

—It's not that —I tuck that strand of hair behind his ear—. I was just used to it.

I move my hand away, playing with the line of silver rings hanging on his earlobe with the reverse of my index, before I place it back on my lap. He doesn't need to say he likes it when I do that, the way he smiles only showing his front teeth is loud enough.

—How are you feeling? —he sips from the straw, before leaving the plastic cup back in the cup holder.

Sighing loud, I move my eyes away back to the road. If I had told myself three months ago I'd be visiting my parents, with the same guy I couldn't stand two months ago, because they're the only ones that know why I can't get near a male, I wouldn't believe it. It's overwhelming how much things can change in such a short span of time.

—Nervous —I scoff—. I don't know how they'll react when they see me. It's been too long. And I'm not sure how I should introduce the...

—I get it —he nods, interrupting me as he sees me struggling to finish the sentence—. Just let it flow. Let it all settle before you bring up that incident, enjoy some time with them. You need to be comfortable to discuss that.

The rest of the way there, we're in silence -that only ends up being filled by the almost inaudible voices and music of the songs playing on the radio. I'm too focused on replaying in my head the different possible scenarios that could take place soon, while I try to find the best way to act in each one of them.

More than one hour later, he enters my old neighborhood. And I'm amazed with the difference with the place I'm currently living in. Well, honestly, I've been amazed since we entered the town and didn't hear the loud noise of cars passing by, or having the streets totally crowded. It's not silent and there's people in the street, but still the difference is abysmal.

I feel my heart climbing on my throat as we start getting closer to my parents' house. Suddenly, everything I had prepared on our way here disappeared. There's nothing left, and I'm left totally on my own.

—This place is so nice —he hums, looking around as we both get out of the car.

—Yeah.

I look around, but my eyes keep going back to the salmon colored facade house in front of me. Last time I was here I was almost running away, getting in a cab to the nearest bus station just so I could start living my own life.

—I bet it would've been so easy to sneak into your room at night —he randomly mentions, looking in the same direction I am.

—Yeah, good luck with that, Spider man. You would've woken up the whole neighborhood with the alarm.

—That's why you'd work to deactivate it —he replies, throwing a serious stare at me—. We're a team, cocktease.

While I chuckle at his comment, I think how thankful I am that he insisted on coming. I wasn't aware how difficult this would be for me until I found myself facing the problem for the first time.

I try to look for my dad's or my mom's car, to know whether they're at home or not. And I see a new and shiny sedan parked right outside of the garage door.

I was hopeful I'd have to push the whole thing a bit later, but the fact that one of them -or the two of them- are at home right now totally takes away that possibility.

My body enters a type of automatic mode, guided by what I know I have to do and leaving aside all my insecurities. I'm not aware of how much I've walked to the main door, or how long I've been pressing the ring bell until Jungkook moves my hand away. His thumb strokes the reverse in my hand, trying to calm me down. And it does work, even if it's just for a few seconds until the door opens in front of us.

My dad's thick eyebrows furrow when he opens up and sees me. His gray eyes are fixed on me, he seems to be analyzing each one of the features in my face, because his pupils move everywhere until they find their way back to my eyes.

—I didn't know you were coming. Your mom didn't tell me anything.

—Mom doesn't know either —I answer right away—. If I'm honest, I wasn't sure there would be someone at home.

—I'm on my day off in the factory —he stutters those words, he seems as nervous as I am.

We look at each other, not in a challenging way. I guess we're both equally surprised of me being here out of nowhere. After my grandma's funeral, there wasn't any type of contact between us. I've always managed to live my own life without problems, and I've never seen myself in a position where I wouldn't be able to find the way out by myself. Well, until now.

—I'm Jungkook.

He breaks the silence, and overthrows the wall that was forming in between me and my dad when he extends his tattooed hand towards the man that has opened the door for us.

—William —he says with a tiny smile—. Will —he corrects himself—. Is he your...? —his gray eyes go back to me— I mean, are you two dating?

—No —I answer fast.

—I'm just a friend.

This is so weird.

—Do you want to come in?

Jungkook looks at me, waiting for me to answer, while my dad just opens the door even more and steps back, giving us room to pass in.

And the strangeness only becomes bigger when I'm in and I make my way to the living room, guided by my dad. Oodles of memories start replaying before my eyes. Every single time I rushed to the door, still chewing my breakfast, before I left for school; the overly decorated Christmas, the loud and cheerful birthdays filled with balloons over the house... But I also see myself sitting on that chunky dining table, studying while my classmates were meeting up somewhere nice, I also see the constant arguments because I wasn't allowed to live the way others did.

I vividly recall in my head my last day here, how I barely talked to them, how I didn't wait to have lunch to get all my bags in the cab, and how they didn't even bat an eye when I said I was leaving.

—Y/n —Jungkook calls me.

When I turn to my dad, he's looking at me with tenderness, before he asks again whether we want something to drink or to eat. He also offers us a seat, which I take on what was my usual seat years ago.

—Is mom working?

—I don't think she'll take too long. She should be finishing her shift in two hours —I nod—. I'm really happy to see you here —he assures me.

A thick and uncomfortable silence stays with that after that comment. A silence that Jungkook tries to make disappear again, when his curious eyes travel across the living room until he finds something he could ask about. But my father is faster, and has seemed to catch a glimpse of the tattoos in his hand.

—I've always wanted to get one —he chuckles—. But every time I've postponed it. And look at me now, too old to get one.

—Oh, that's bullshit —he says without thinking, but stops as soon as he's aware—. Sorry, sir.

My dad simply shrugs it off, and encourages him to proceed.

—It's never too late —he shakes his hand in the air—. In fact, whenever you come to New York, come to my studio. I'll work on it personally.

—I'll sleep on it.

Silence is back, but not for that long. This time, my father is the one who brings up a topic and asks how everything is going. Or, how he likes to say "How's life been treating me?". Instead of lying, and inventing a perfect life with my dream job, I'm honest. I admit I've been struggling to find a vacancy in that world I crazily craved to be in. I don't get the judging look I thought I'd be getting, he doesn't throw a hurtful comment to make me feel bad about my choice. Instead, he smiles and guarantees I'll find my place soon.

The uncomfortable environment starts disappearing slowly, to the point that we start talking randomly about life, about the world and how fucked up it is. I'm more surprised to see how well both Jungkook and my father seem to get on. Well, it's not that big of a surprise, since Jungkook just has that effect in general, but it was unexpected.

This peace and ease takes a turn when my mom comes back home. She greets my father from the door, but suddenly stops when she sees me.

Their reactions have been quite similar anyway. They seemed uncomfortable, not in a bad way, not in the sense of them not wanting me here, but more towards being unsure on what to do or say exactly. And if it comforts them, I'm feeling the exact same way.

—I know I should've called before.

—You know this is your home. You can come whenever you want —my mom answers fast, sitting next to my father on the armrest of the couch.

—I know, but it's been too long. And I came out of nowhere.

—It's okay —my father nods.

Silence is back again, but the environment feels different. It's like we all know why I'm here all of a sudden, but nobody is able to bring it up. I feel a light weight on my hand, just to find Jungkook's fingers trying to give me the strength I can't seem to find by myself.

—I wish the reason why I'm here was because I was able to find a nice job and prove my degree wasn't useless, but I'm not here because of that —I slide my hands over my legs nervously.

—We know why you're here —my mom says—. I wish it was because you wanted to see us, but that's not the case either.

I might be looking completely confused, because I don't need to ask any questions to get them to answer them.

—Your therapist already told us that sooner or later you'd come back for answers —my father mentions, avoiding looking at me—. And we should always be open to sharing them with you.

I try to find the best way to start. Unsure on whether I should explain what's been going on the last few weeks, or directly ask what I want to know.

Jungkook holds my hand tighter, giving me the courage I can't find anywhere to speak, to open up.

—I've been having nightmares —I'm limited to say—. Nightmares that seemed too realistic, in a place that I've been able to recognize. So I went to a therapist, and he said that those nightmares could be linked to some type of trauma I went through when I was younger —I take a big breath—. You are the only ones that could help me right now. Yesterday I was looking up online and it said I could take months, or even years, to remember everything by myself. And I don't want to go through this for so long. I can't live like this for so long.

My mother nods, but she doesn't start speaking straight away. She needs time to think, and I want to give it to her. That's why I'm here.

—You had a friend you were close to when you were younger —my mother starts—. You used to go to her place to play and do your homework.

Looking at my father, she nods and signs him to bring something, while muttering "Show it to her". He stands up to open one of the drawers in the big wooden cabinet, placed in front of the dining table. When he comes back, he hands me a photograph. It's a picture of me and a blonde girl that's a little bit taller than me.

—You and Amber were glued to each other. Always together —she smiles—. So it wasn't weird you went to her place after school, just like she came here many times. One of those afternoons, you decided to play hide and seek...

As she starts narrating everything that happened, the scenes appear in my head. Like a movie you wish you had never watched.

Amber always came up with the best ways to entertain us, always made every game sound so interesting that it was difficult not to want to play. That's why she's my best friend. We always have a great time together.

I'm hurrying to find a place to hide while she's counting down out loud from the kitchen, but I can't find the perfect spot to win the game. I know she'll be able to find me in each one of the previous spots I've chosen. So when I see the door to his parents' room half open, I head in there without giving it a second thought. Her parents aren't here, and by the time they arrive, we'll be finished with this game.

I could've picked a lot of places, but I end up choosing the closet. It has some slits that will allow me to see her coming, and foresee her movements so I can start running whenever she heads to the opposite direction of where I am.

Happy with my plan, I just sit there and wait for Amber to show up at any time -especially when her singing tone starts sounding louder and clearer. And after what seems way too long, she finally makes it into her parents' room. I'm getting ready to start running whenever I see the chance. I'm already getting up and placing my hand on the closet door to push it, but when I'm about to get out, a male body shows up.

Scared of being scolded for getting inside their room, I step back and keep quiet. I'll stay a little longer.

At first, I think her father is just greeting her. But how she starts whimpering and begging him not to punish her, just makes me think she might get scolded for getting in this room. And that only convinces me even more that I shouldn't leave this closet yet. But the way he scolds her is so weird. He throws her onto the bed, and gets over her body. He doesn't get naked, but I see him lowering his pants, as Amber tells him to stop and asks for help simultaneously.

I want to help, I want to ask for help. But I'm so scared I don't know what to do, so I just sit there, bracing myself and trying to cover up my ears while I beg for all of this to be over as soon as possible.

The drowned screams stop. I don't know when they stopped, but I can't hear them anymore. Looking through one of the slits, with blurry vision, I try to see if there's someone in the room, but it's empty again. Only thing left from what happened are the messy sheets, especially towards the edge of the bed.

As I see the chance, I run. I head downstairs, and seeing no one is on sight, not even Amber, I start running away. No direction, I just want to forget what I saw.

—We were looking for you all night —I hear my dad say—. We were lucky a neighbor saw you getting in the park.

—When we saw you in that state, we thought the worst. But then you told us what happened —my mom scratches her nape—. You looked so devastated we didn't think you were lying. So we talked to Amber's mother and told her.

—You barely ate, you didn't speak, you had awful nightmares at night —my dad continues—. And they all stopped one night.

—The therapist told us it was a way to cope with what happened, but that it could have some effects on the long run. You didn't remember anything, it just vanished. We had the choice of telling you or hiding it and letting you be happy. And, as a mother, I made the best decision for you.

—What happened to Amber?

—It was proven her dad had been sexually assaulting her —her voice trembles—. He went to jail, but he killed himself two weeks later.

—And last I knew about Amber, she moved to California with her boyfriend. She seems to be doing great.

—She and her mother moved away after everything happened —my mom explains—. Diane wanted to protect Amber, that house was filled with memories wherever they looked. And she also wanted to protect you. When we told her you forgot about everything, her mother thought it'd be better if you just stopped hanging out with Amber so there wouldn't be any possibility of you remembering.

Although I'm happy to hear she is doing fine, seemingly, and has just gone on with life, I can't help but feel overwhelmed by all this new information. It's not cold, yet I feel my whole body tremble, and I can't find a way to make it stop.

—You were only ten when it happened. We wanted to protect you from everything, we needed to know that you'd be okay —I hear my father say—. Probably the way we did it wasn't the best, and we realized the day you told us you wanted to leave, but keeping you safe was the only thing we wanted.

I look at the both of them, annoyed over the fact that they always need to have a say on what I do, even if it's about my future. Right when I needed their support the most, they decided to take it away and try to convince me to do it their own way. So when my mother says I'll be grateful once I get older, I can't help but scoff.

—Just like I should be thankful for having no friends? For being eighteen and living my life only by looking at others through my window? I want to live my life, make my mistakes, and get my own achievements. I just want to live and do what others do. 

I'm unable to lift my gaze and looks at them right now. My eyes are glued to my own hands on my laps, and my fingers moving nervously against one another while I see the teardrops making my vision blurry until I can't hold them any longer. I don't even need to blink for them to fall off, and land on the exposed skin of my forearm.

—That's why I talked to my mom, and asked her to look after you while you were there. We wanted to know that you'd be sleeping in a safe place, and wouldn't be totally by yourself in New York —I listen to my dad mention.

Although I wish I could say something, it's just too much information right now. The walls and ceiling seem to be getting closer, making the room smaller, as time passes by. And I try to stay here, make the walls go back to their place, but that never happens. I feel forced to stand up and head outside. And it's not until I feel the chilly breeze hit me, that I allow myself to break in a whimper.

I realize just now everything I've been missing. Not only in my teenage years, but with my parents as well. Realizing everything could've been so different if I hadn't chosen to hide in that closet that day, everything that could've been, only makes me aware how a small and innocent decision turned my life upside down. And how I allowed it to happen. I protected myself, yet I made everyone around me worry and suffer, forced everyone to mold to what I needed without being aware of it.

I don't know how long I stay outside, but I'm aware of Jungkook's presence when his warmth covers my body and his arms wrapped around me. And time stops when I turn on my feet to hide my face on his neck, holding onto him as if he were the only safe place I needed, the only safe place where I actually feel nothing wrong could happen.

After what feels like forever, I think I'm calm enough to go back inside. My parents' eyes set on both of us, especially me the moment we cross the door to the living room. And although I'm convinced discomfort and strangeness will go back to invading the place, my mom is faster and comes up with the idea of having lunch together.

I turn to Jungkook, unsure on whether this will be okay for him. But he just gives me a reassuring smile, and nods.

The time we spend together makes me realize several things. One of them is that seeing so much time wasted hurts and there's no turning back, but if life gives you a chance to realize it on time, it means it's giving you a second chance to make even better memories. And the other, that it doesn't matter who Jungkook is with, he always ends up making everyone fall for him so easily. He just has that gift.

—Come whenever you want, alright? —my father tells me, while we head to the door— And make sure to bring him, too —his head points to Jungkook, who's still praising my mom for the food while holding a Tupperware with the leftovers.

—It was a pleasure, sir —Jungkook said, but soon he corrects himself—. I mean, Will.

—Come more often —my mother says, when she stands next to my dad—. And be careful on your way back —she now looks at the man standing next to me—. Add a bit more cream while you're cooking it, it'll make the sauce softer.

He just nods with a smile, before saying goodbye to both of them again while waiting for me to take the first step out. I think about hugging them both, I think I should do it, but I don't feel comfortable enough to do it. It just doesn't feel natural for me to do it right now. And they both seem to understand it, as they only nod and pat my upper arm.

Chapter Six:

Tomorrow is the day you've been looking forward to since the moment you stepped into this new city, the grand opening of your flower shop. First, you needed to find an outfit for the occasion. You've gone through your closet time and time again, but nothing really popped out at you. Thinking back to the outfit Ningguang gifted you, you decided it was time to get some shopping done. It would be good to see her again and maybe you could even plan another night out. Thinking of last night, you blushed remembering your activities. Your entire body was sore but in a pleasant way. 

Throwing on a quick outfit of t-shirt and jeans, you put on your shoes and headed to the Jade Chamber. It wasn't too far of a walk, and you were glad everything was relatively close. The outside of the boutique had bold and beautiful gold lettering. The windows were tall and elegant. Opening the door, you noticed how bright and inviting the layout was. With lofty white walls and spacious displays, it was a gorgeous shop. Upon entering, you were greeted by a woman with purple hair. Her hair almost made it look like she had cat ears and was adorably cute, but in a professional way. 

Looking around at all the displays, you were slightly overwhelmed. You grabbed a few pieces to try on, slightly surprised that they had your sizes in everything. As you were walking to the dressing room, a long red duster caught your eye. You picked it up and added it to your pile. As you were headed to the dressing room, another person entering the store caught your eye. She was shorter than you and had a blue high ponytail. She carried herself with elegance you thought to yourself. 

You were trying on countless outfits and nothing seemed to work just right. Eventually, you made your way through the pile and decided on a black tank top with lace up the middle and black leggings. For shoes, you found a pair of black chunky block heels. You put on the duster and went out to ask for a second opinion. It was a gorgeous piece, deep red chiffon with black lace roses embroidered all over. There was also a black velvet cinch belt that hugged your waist in just the right place. You timidly exited the dressing room looking for the employee for her opinion.

"Wow, that looks amazing on you!" You heard a voice exclaim. You turned around and saw it was the blue-haired girl who entered the shop after you. 

"Thank you so much! I was actually looking for another opinion, but I guess this is the outfit" you said. 

"What's the occasion if I may ask" she inquired. 

"It's for the grand opening of my flower shop tomorrow. I'm nervous but excited. Can't wait for it to take off" you said. 

"Oh, I've heard of a new shop opening recently. Wildflower was it? I was planning to go myself. It's nice to meet you. My name is Ayaka,'' she said. 

"Nice to meet you as well, I'm y/n" you responded.

"Again, you look lovely in that. I look forward to seeing it at the grand opening" she said and then stepped away. It was nice to get a random and unexpected compliment after the almost failed shopping trip. You went back into the dressing room and got the items you were purchasing ready. After you had checked out, you left the store. You had to admit you were a little upset that you didn't see Ninnguang, but you knew you would see her tomorrow. While you walked, you checked your phone for any texts. As you turned the corner, you bumped into someone. Quickly apologizing, you noticed it was the same girl from the Jade Chamber, Ayaka.

"Fancy seeing you here again y/n" she said with a slight chuckle. "Seeing as we met again, would you care to go get some boba with me?"

"Yes, I'd love to! It'll be my treat," you said.

"Oh no need, it's my brother's shop so it'll be on the house."

As you walked, you chatted with Ayaka about how you were liking the city so far and the work you've been doing to the shop. She also talked about how her brother opened the store. You learned her brother's name was Ayato and the other employee was named Thoma. After what seemed like no time at all, you finally arrived at the tea shop. Komore Boba was the name of the cafe. The main walls of the shop were painted white, but the side where the registers were accented with mint green. There was a row of a few glass tables with mint green chairs and lamps that were similar to bubbles. You also noted the bars of baby's breath and other flowers adorning the various shelves. 

"Hey Ayaka, how's it going" asked a blonde man from behind the counter. He had on a black t shirt with black jeans, and an apron around his waist. He was blonde and wore his hair back in a ponytail and a headband. 

“Hello Thoma, I’m doing well. What time are you working today?” she asked. 

“Once Ayato comes in, I’m free to go. Oh, look who it is. We were just talking about you” he said. 

In walked a beautiful man with the same color hair as Ayaka. Shoulder length and perfectly styled. He wore the exact opposite of Thoma, with white jeans and a white shirt. 

“Hello Thoma, Ayaka. What brings you here today? You want the usual?” he said. Then he turned to look at his sister and noticed you. As soon as he laid his eyes on you, a coy smile lit up his face. 

“Oh? And who do we have here?” he asked. 

“This here is y/n. I met her earlier at the Jade Chamber, then ran into her on the street and invited her here. We’ve become fast friends already” she said. Thoma also looked over your way and you could have sworn you saw a faint blush on his face. 

“Welcome to Komore Boba y/n. A friend of Ayaka’s is a friend of mine. My name is Ayato and this here is Thoma” he said.

“Nice to meet you both. You have a lovely shop here. I can’t wait to try a drink” you said happily. 

“First one is on the house. Thoma, take their orders while I go get ready.” 

After talking to Thoma about business related matters, he disappeared into the back room. Thoma took your order and you waited at one of the tables in the shop with Ayaka. You began with some small talk, mostly her asking about your shop opening. Just as you were starting to reply to Ayaka, Thoma came over with your drinks. His energy was contagious and you couldn't help but be in a better mood in his presence. While he was walking away, you noticed Ayaka’s stare lingered a little too long to be deemed friendly. Maybe you should ask about that after he leaves. You knew it would be soon as Ayato came out from the back room and was now behind the counter. What you didnt expect was him to sit at your table with you. 

“So y/n, how are you liking the cafe so far?” he asked. 

“I love it, it’s like a hidden gem here in Liyue. It really reminds me of the shop I used to go to back home in Mondstadt,” you replied. 

“Mondstadt? I’m from there too actually. Are you new to Liyue?” he asked.

“Yes, I’ve only been here a few weeks. I’m just about settled now. My flower shop is having it’s grand opening tomorrow and its really starting to feel like home,” you replied with a smile. Just then, Ayato came over with a slice of cake for everyone at the table. 

“It’s not often that Ayaka brings friends here. Enjoy these.” he said. With his words Ayaka blushed. You felt slightly embarrassed for her, but you understood they were happy for her. 

“Thank you for everything, the drink is delicious by the way. I think I’ll become your newest regular” you said. With that, both of the men smiled at you. You also thought you felt someone staring at you, and turned to look. It was Ayaka and she quickly looked away. If you hadn’t noticed, you might have thought she was upset. 

“So youre having a grand opening tomorrow for your flower shop. We’ll make sure to set some time aside to stop by. All of us,” Ayato stated. 

“Great, I’m looking forward to seeing you all there. I’ve met some amazing people here so far. I’ll make sure to repay your kindness” you said. 

After Ayato left, you continued your conversation with Ayaka and Thoma. The pair was easy going and you felt like you knew them for years rather than hours. The conversation flowed and there was no awkward pauses. Throughout the talk, you could see that Ayaka was interested in Thoma. She hung on his every word and made physical contact quite often. Despite all this, Thoma was clearly blind to her affection for him. Poor girl, hopefully it worked out for her eventually. You also looked over at Ayato a few times, and each glance he was also looking back at you. You quickly looked away, slightly flushed. He was attractive for sure, and those white jeans hugged his figure in all of the right places. Never in your life had you come across so many attractive men in one city. 

You checked your phone and noticed the time. You had to get home and do some last minute prep for the shop tomorrow. Thoma offered to walk you home, but you declined. Ayake looked slightly shocked at the suggestion, and you didn’t want to upset your new friend. You politely declined his offer. You had then exchanged contact info with Ayaka and offered to make plans in the future. She accepted readily and out the door you went. Walking back home, you thought about the events that transpired. You found a perfect outfit, made a new friend, discovered a hidden gem cafe, and had a good time looking at some very attractive men. 

You arrived back at your apartment, and before going inside, you looked across the street. Kaeya’s shop looked like it was closed. That brief moment of hope of possibly seeing your best friend again fizzled out as quickly as it came on. You sighed and then unlocked your door. Unpacking your bags, you laid out your outfit for the next day. Nervousness was starting to creep in about the big day tomorrow, but you knew you had some many new friends that we’re going to be there for you. There was one person you weren’t sure would be in attendance, so you decided to text him. You pulled up Childe’s name in your contacts and sent him a text. 

Tomorrow is the grand opening of Wildflower. Think you might be there?

You received a reply almost instantly.

Wouldn’t miss it for the world ;) can’t wait to see you

You looked at the reply and then said goodnight, not wanting to say too much. You then chose to take a shower and do some extra skin care. The butterflies were starting to creep back in again. Hopefully you’d be able to get some beauty rest and feel refreshed tomorrow. You laid down and tossed and turned while you were trying to fall asleep. Luckily for you, sleep eventually came and you drifted off. 

When you stirred in your sleep, you opened your eleys slightly. You were not prepared to see a gleaming pair of cerulean eyes staring back at you. For a split second, you could have sworn you saw a chunk of sandy blonde hair in the moonlight coming through your window. 

You jerked awake. You swore you saw eyes staring back at you, but when you turned your bedside lamp on, you were alone in the room. Just a bad dream, you thought. After the attack in the alley you were on high alert, but you were not prepared for this. You had moved on. He could not come back into your life. You sat up and took  a sip of water from your bottle on your bedside table. Feeling spooked, but also tired as hell, you laid back down and went back to sleep. You didn’t have any other dreams that night. 

Alarm going off, you willed yourself awake. Thanks to that dream last night, you didn’t sleep as well as you had wanted. You slowly got out of bed and made your way to the bathroom to do your morning routine. You wanted to check out the shop for any last minute preparations and to make sure everything was picture perfect. Alhaitham and Itto had been a tremendous help in getting this place ready. You made note to treat them to a meal and do something nice for them after all of this. You adjusted a few minor things like flower placements, but everything seemed to be in order. Next item on the list was getting yourself ready. There was only an hour until opening, and you wanted to be one hundred percent ready for anything. 

You were setting up various signs for the grand opening out front when Alhaitham came to the store. You said your good mornings to each other and he went to the back to get ready. It was twenty minutes until opening and you were starting to get nervous again. He must have noticed because he came over and patted your head softly. "It'll be alright, we got this" he said. 

It was time. You had seen a few familiar faces and ones you didn't recognize outside the doors. You unlocked the door and held it open for everyone to come in. "Welcome to Wildflower" you said. Ninnguang and Beidou were next and they both came up and gave you a hug. "Congrats, we're proud of you," Beidou said. 

After everyone came in, you stood near the front. "Thank you everyone for coming today. I hope you enjoy the shop. My name is Y/n and my employee here is Alhaitham. Let us know if you need anything". 

People started shopping around, and the atmosphere was lively. People were coming up to you and asking about different flowers and your opinions on bouquet arrangements and different services you offered. Ninnguang and Beidou had purchased a few pre-made arrangements for her boutique and Itto's gym. As they were leaving you saw a few other familiar faces coming in through the door. Ayato, Thoma, and Ayaka were here. As soon as you made eye contact, Thoma lit up and smiled. Ayato had his usual coy smile in place and Ayaka waved. You walked over to them. 

"Thank you all for coming. It's nice to see you again! It's quite busy so I'll come back in a few minutes to chat" you said. 

"No worries. Take your time y/n. Congratulations on your grand opening" Thoma exclaimed. After you said your thanks again, you walked off to help some other customers. You heard the bell above the door chime again, and you turned to greet the latest customers. What you saw made your heart skip a beat. It was Zhongli and Childe. 

Zhongli gave you a polite smile and Childe winked at you with a goofy grin. You walked over to them. 

"Welcome to Wildflower. I wasn't sure if either of you would be able to make it, but it means a lot" you said. 

"Wouldn't miss it for the world, girlie. Like what you've done with the place. It looks beautiful" Childe said. 

Just as you were about to respond, Alhaitham called for you needing your assistance with a customer. You apologized to the pair saying you would be back in a few minutes. Zhongli nodded and Childe had a sliver of irritation on his face. You went to see what the customers needed, and Alhaitham went to the register to ring out a few people that were ready. It seems like business was starting to slow down somewhat, and you could use the break. It had been a few hours of rushing around non stop. 

After you had addressed the customers that needed help, and the ones ready to pay were out,you sent Alhaitham on a break. Your head was spinning with just how many people had come in today. You took a breath after ringing out the rest of the line, and turned around to file some papers. You heard someone walk up, and turned to talk to the person and saw Ayato. 

"Well I'd call this a successful first day" he said. 

You laughed. "Yes, quite a bit more people than I expected but can't say that's a bad thing. Sorry I didn't manage to get back to you, Thoma, and Ayaka" you said. 

"Nothing to worry about. You can always see them again. I had Thoma leave to open up the boba shop. Ayake went with him. She's quite taken with that boy, however her affections go unnoticed" he said. 

"I seemed to have noticed that as well in the short time we were at the tea shop together. Hopefully I'll have some time to go back and visit you all again" you said. You weren't sure if you should be discussing your new friend's love life with her brother of all people, so you hoped to change the subject. 

"We would be very interested in seeing you again. Thoma and I have taken quite a liking to you" he said while pulling out his wallet. He grabbed a business card and started writing on the back. Once he was finished, he handed it to you. 

"Here's my personal cell number along with Thoma's. Feel free to text anytime you'd like" he said with that same smile he gave you every time you looked at him at the ship the other day. 

You blushed slightly, not knowing his intentions. "Ah, well thank you. I'll be sure to send you both a message once I'm free" you said. You weren't sure if it was just in your head, but you felt a pair of eyes piercing through you. Ayato then purchased a bouquet of various flowers for the vases throughout his shop, and to your surprise, kissed your cheek goodbye. 

"For the one watching your every move" he said with a wink. 

You stood there dumbfounded. Who was watching your every move? There weren't that many people in the shop anymore. The only ones of note were Childe, Zhongli, and a man who had just walked in with a fiery man of red hair. Childe had walked up to you after Ayato left. 

"Well our pretty lady seems to have quite the amount of admirers already. I guess I can't keep you all to myself just yet" he said. Was he jealous? Was he the one Ayato was talking about? The air surrounding him was filled with tension, and his eyes were empty of all emotion. Yes, Ayato was talking about him. You had to admit, you were flattered that he was this jealous over another man flirting with you. 

"Ahh I just met Ayato the other day through his sister. She helped me shop for this outfit and then took me to their boba shop" you said. 

"Guess this means I'll have to spend more time with you" he said. 

"I have no complaints about that" you said softly. You could feel the burn on your cheeks and looked away. He grabbed your chin softly, and turned your face to look at him. 

"Don't look away" he said. He then started to lean in closer, and his lips were almost to yours when you heard someone clear their throat. Alhaitham was the one to interrupt this time. 

"Y/n, a customer is asking about setting up a weekly delivery." You could strangle him right now. However, you completely forgot that you were in the middle of your flower shop. It was scary how easily Childe swept you away. 

"I'll take my leave. Zhongli, grab that bouquet we looked at and leave it in your bar. I'll see you soon Y/n." Zhongli grabbed the biggest bouquet you had set up for display, the glaze lilies. Alhaitham rang them out and they left the shop. 

Meanwhile, you went to attend to the customer about the weekly deliveries. You were somewhat surprised to see it was the man with the high ponytail of fiery red hair. He had on a black leather jacket with gray ripped jeans. On his thigh was harness with an o ring in the center. He was tall and with a lean build. You only wished you could see what was under the jacket. You mentally told yourself to focus as this was a customer. 

"Hello, my name is y/n. Alhaitham told me you were interested in setting up weekly deliveries. What were you interested in?" You asked. 

"Hello there. My name is Diluc. I'm the owner of the tattoo shop just down the street, Angel's Share. I'd like to set up a weekly delivery. Anything really. Whatever the newest flowers you have would be great. I also wanted to introduce myself as a fellow business owner here in Liyue." 

As you chatted, you got to know him a little better. You were pretty sure he didn't really know who you were. You knew he was originally from Mondstadt. You appreciated the talk with Diluc, as you only knew about him through his foster brother Kaeya. He was a little reserved, but you could tell that he was a respectable gentleman and a cunning businessman. You had a feeling he had more than just his tattoo business, but you didn't ask him about it. Through your conversation, you set up a delivery for his shop. The dates and times were set and were going to start next week. You noticed he was the last one in the shop. After he left, there were only a few more minutes until closing. You let Alhaitham go home early and thanked him for his hard work. For the remainder of time, you were set on cleaning and keeping the store in pristine shape. You noted that it was past closing time, and were just about done cleaning. It was then that you heard the door chime, signaling someone entered the shop. 

"Thanks for coming in, but we're actually closed now" you said. You turned to look who was there, and stopped right in your tracks. Standing there in front of you was the familiar blue you've seen countless times before. Kaeya. You weren't really sure what you say as he's given you quite the cold shoulder, so you didn't say anything. Knowing he would have to speak first, he cleared his throat. 

"I see you had quite a busy day. Congrats on the grand opening". He said. Was that really all he had to say after ignoring you all this time? 

"Thank you. Now as I've said, the store is closed" you stated, trying to keep your voice as level as possible. You could feel the hurt and anger creeping up and just wanted him gone. 

"Y/n, come now, that's no way to treat your best-". You cut him off.

"You ghosted me. Don't talk about what best friends should be doing. What do you want?" You were seething at this point. Throughout all your years of knowing Kaeya, he had never given you a reason to question your friendship. 

"What was Diluc doing here?" He asked. Diluc? The other tattoo shop owner? You wondered why he was asking about him. 

"What does he have to do with any of this" you questioned. 

"Is he the new flavor of the week? I noticed your employee is quite the looker too. I wonder-". You cut him off with a slap. He had gone too far this time. 

"Get the fuck out of my shop Kaeya"

"I'm sorry, Y/n. That was uncalled for. I let my anger get the best of me. Please hear me out." You could see the regret on his face, but that didn't help your own emotions. Despite the anger you were feeling, you waited to hear him out. Once he knew you were willing to hear him out, he started talking again. 

"What happened between us, it scared me. I didn't want to treat you like any other hookup. And then Diluc spotted us and I don't know. I cleared up and asked myself what I was doing with you, my best friend" he paused, so you had to ask him. 

"Did what happened between us mean nothing to you" you asked, almost a whisper. 

"Of course not. Listen, I saw Diluc in here and I didn't know if he was giving you any problems because of your connection to me. Can we talk again sometime?" 

You sighed. Today was a long and stressful day. Knowing he didn't think the worst of you, you knew in your heart he was forgiven but his actions were not forgotten. You nodded to his question, willing to patch things up between you two. Of course you've had arguments before, but nothing like this. However, you were sure you both would make it through this. 

"Are you going to keep being a stranger or can I expect to hear from you again?"

"I'll be here everyday if I can help it sweetheart" he said with a genuine smile. You let out a breath you didn't know you were holding, and walked closer to him and embraced him in a hug. He wrapped his arms around you in response. A slight minty scent enveloped you and the touch of his chest comforted you. You felt him pull back slightly. 

"I've also been wanting to talk to you. This just happened today, and I wish I didn't have to tell you this, but he's back." 

[emma-is-swaggy-and-epic]

Idk tbh, i only really have ONE good friend but we don't talk much though if it counts: my mom says that i'm really good at paying attention to details

Honestly i don't know enough people personally to say i have anyone who inspires me

Same as #2, i have trust issues so i don't really have a good enough relationship with anyone to say i have a favorite person (i don't have BPD either in case you're talking about THAT kind of favorite person)

I LOVE BUNNIES!!!! I watched a lot of cartoons and stuff with bunnies in them growing up and i identify a LOT with their timid nature. I've even had some of my OWN pet bunnies growing up! Their names were stuffy, sweetie and cabby (though i admit: cabby had the best life out of the 3 considering he was the only free-roam bunny we had and he lived the longest, stuffy didn't even last a single day in our house!)

PURPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

N/A

I'm able to roll my R's and i like using it to make pigeon noises

Honestly i don't really dress up much since i'm homeschooled, i usually wear really simple outfits (sweatshirts and leggings in fall/winter, t-shirts and jorts in spring/summer) though tbh it'd be cool as hell if i was able to dress like a character in a 90's anime or something on the reg

I don't wear makeup since i don't really feel like i have to though i do admit it'd be cool to try it sometime

I don't really watch movies tbh

I don't watch TV shows though i HAVE been wanting to binge watch my little pony, i haven't watched that show since i was 13!

Dude, I'VE LITERALLY GROWN UP WITH OLDER SIBLINGS WHO WATCH ANIME, THIS SHIT IS PRETTY MUCH IN MY BLOOD!!!! I don't watch anime though but my absolute FAVORITE animes are sailor moon and pop team epic! I've been a fan of sailor moon since i was 9 years old and it really holds a special place in my heart!

Isn't it obvious? DIGITAL ART!!!!! I can't really recommend any artists though since i like too many of them

Playing on my switch and watching youtube videos, i've been REALLY onto splatoon 3 lately and i plan on joining team alien in the upcoming splatfest (...that is, if i don't MISS IT like i did the last one....)

4, two of them for my head and 2 for both sides of my bed (i sleep on a loft so i partially put the pillows there so that i don't touch the bedframe)

ALL THE TIME!!!!!!! A little more than half the time i DO remember my dreams and if i have a dream that's ESPECIALLY interesting i post it on here!

Damn....that's kinda hard to choose...i ALWAY obsess over fictional characters, though if i had to pick ONE, it'd be hat kid from a hat in time. When i first played AHIT at age 14 i was in a really dark place and i really identified with her after seeing what happened to her at the end of chapter 1 and she became my very first comfort character....not to mention i actually have brown hair and blue eyes IRL, just like hat kid

I don't have a phone but if i did, i'd want the case to be one of those foldy ones because i don't like the thought of someone being able to see my screen

I know this sounds kinda silly but the song "we're not flawless" from my little pony is a really big comfort song for me, i've been a fan of MLP since i was 8 and i've had issues with anxiety and trauma for MUCH LONGER so whenever i listen to that song it feels like the mane 6 made that song for me and that they're proud of me for coming this far despite my issues

Idk, it's 11am...the day just started..

Chapter one; how legends are made

One thing about tales, they are almost always left unended. The people existed before, and will long after. Long ago, crawling out of a dark puddle, Vantus, the ink demon appeared! Beginning to cause havoc to the mortal plane, seemingly unstoppable.

Until from far away the legendary warrior, Error 404 arrived. Using his strings of destruction, he struck against the creature, and after a long fight, William defeated Vantus by sealing him within a boulder, and binding it with his strings.

With Vantus gone, over a long time the world developed into the place we know now. "Whoa… that Error 404 guy seems interesting, huh?" G, a skeletal monster, said. He was wearing a white shirt, with a white hoodie over it, and a long blue scarf. He had black shorts with white stripes and black sandals.

"Heh, I guess so? I don't care much for meeting big heros, always have a lot of, er… problems. Besides, not like I'm a hero by any means." Dust replied. Like G, he was a skeleton. He wore glasses, black leggings, and a blue hoodie with a grey turtleneck underneath. His sneakers were black with white accents. "But… hey, if you wanna do that, not like I can stop you" he said winking.

"Dust, would you please just ACTUALLY take a book home one of these days? You keep spooking customers!" Nightmare said. Nightmare too, was a skeleton. He had purple eyes, and a purple suit-like outfit, with gold accents. "And besides, weren't you planning on going somewhere today G? Some… tour or something?" Nightmare asked.

"OH! Right, that historical tour thing! I almost forgot that was today! Heh," G replied. "I've gotta get going… huh? That was… in about 9 minutes?!? Ohh god! Gotta go really fast! BYEEE!" G said quickly.

"BUT WAIT YOU …forgot… to get food. Whelp, not my problem anymore." Nightmare said.

"Phew. Only, 8 minutes late. But… somehow im still waiting? This was supposed to be 8 minutes ago what?" G said.

"Everyone, it's time to start moving!" the tour manager said.

"But… that was.. okay…" G thought to himself.

Some time later…

"...and, this is the boulder that Vantus is said to be contained within," the tour manager continued.

"He won't be like that for long…" whispered a strange skeleton.

"What?" G said, turning around, but as soon as he did, the skeleton disappeared.

"...and that's the end of the tour! There are, of course other pieces of history around here, but most of them are scattered or hidden intentionally. And of course, we didn't cover the whole city, but don't worry. You can always go there later," the tour guide said.

"Huh. Wonder who that guy was… But damn, I'm hungry… Huh. Guess I… didn't eat. Better take care of that or Hunter's gonna be annoyed with me. Hah," G said, as he headed out to get food.

When he had his food in hand, he glanced back down the street in the direction he had come from. "Hmm. I wanna go back to that boulder. I mean I can finish eating over there, and it's cool," G said, returning to the boulder. However, as soon as he got to the entrance, he overheard two monsters talking.

"Finally! Our brother will be free once again!" said one skeleton.

"Yes. Vantus will be finally able to tread the dirt of the mortal realm once more," said the other, as G slowly crept closer to get a better look at them.

He saw the first had a large blue cape, with a symbol on the back, and white accents. The second, wearing a yellow robe, with a golden circlet and glowing yellow horns. They had with them over twenty skeleton-like creatures made of ink. As they spoke, one of the skeletons reached for the strings and immediately, as he touched it, blue lines coarsed up his arm, and his arm was ripped apart.

"HAH! You didn't think we tried that? They destroy nearly anything that touches them! However, with these gloves, I can actually grab the strings, and release Brother from his binds! Mwehehehehe!!!" the first one said.

"Calm now, Blue moon. You're distracted again. Focus," said the second.

"Gah! You're right. Let's free him," Blue moon said, grabbing the strings. The same blue lines stretched and wound around the gloves all over, however the gloves didn't break. And as he pulled, the strings finally gave way, and *snap*, the strings flew behind him, still clinging to the gloves as the boulder crumbled. Had you not known the boulder had been there, you would never know anything had happened. In its place, all that was left was just a single, black, puddle.

"Hahahahahaha…" Laughter echoed through the large space, getting louder, and louder, "HAHAHAHAHA!!!" A hand emerged from the puddle gripping into the ground around it.

"At last, I am reborn!" G heard from his hiding place, as Vantus emerged from the puddle, still regaining physical form. Vantus was a black, inky skeleton, with two large arms coming out of his back, which he could shape how he wanted. He wore a black t-shirt with a smaller overshirt, baggy pants, black sandals, and a scarf that seemed to meld with his additional arms.

As he stumbled out of the puddle, cackling, he spoke, "and what force after all this time, removed those blasted strings?"

The second skeleton looked as though he was about to speak, but was swiftly interrupted by Blue Moon saying, "I did it, brother! I made a magical glove that could hold the power of destruction in my very hand!" he exclaimed excitedly to his brother.

The second stranger stated, "Hey, Blue Moon. Brother Vantus requires time to recover his energy. We cannot bombard him." He then turned to the inky skeleton said, "It Is great to see you brother. Let us return to somewhere safe."

Vantus replied, "Ah. Thank you, brother and Blue Moon. You have done well. I see you have grown since my imprisonment." He smiled. "Let us go–" he began, but was distracted by the sound of a faint tick as G accidentally hit a pebble.

Immediately, all three turned to face him. "Get behind me," said the second monster.

"Brother gold light, do not waste your time with some random pathetic insignificant CiViLlIaN," replied Blue Moon. "And besides… I need to try these new strings out, and he's just perfect!" he stated.

Though G tried to run, his limbs wouldn't move. And as Blue Moon swiped the strings at him, he reached out and yelled "No!… Just leave me ALONE!!!" as he grabbed the strings. But when he pulled, the strings didn't hurt him. Instead, the force of his actions yanked them from Blue Moon's grasp.

"HEY!! W-WHAT?!? HOW CAN… YOU HOLD THE STRINGS?!?"

Voice panicked, he replied "I… I DON'T KNOW!!!" The wayward strings got caught just outside of the room and, in his frantic flailing, he accidentally pulled himself by the strings, causing himself to be tugged from the room.

"Hey!!! GET BACK HERE WITH MY- OUR STRINGS!!! YOU- YOU- GAHH!!!"

As G got to his feet, he quickly stumbled away as fast as possible, with Blue Moon giving chase.

G ran as fast as he could, but Blue Moon nearly caught up. He swiped his hand behind him, striking towards Blue Moon, but hitting the wall next to him instead. There was a deafening crash as debris filled the alley.

G's relief was short-lived, however. Just as he was about to round the corner, he heard a boom as Blue Moon broke through the rubble, sending spinning crossbones toward G.

It seemed as though he was about to get hit, but in a flash, the crossbones were struck sideways by another bone that sailed across G's path, right in front of his head, and a subsequent gaster blaster from his left. Before he even had time to look for the source, Killer picked up G, running at seemingly impossible speeds.

Killer's green and yellow t-shirt and black jacket with red and white accents flapped wildly in the wind rushing by. The black stripes on his gray shorts were almost as much a blur as his gray sneakers. Black fingerless gloves held G in a secure grip as he gazed up in surprise at eyes which appeared to cry a strange oil.

"What's up, G? Whatcha' playing?" Killer quipped as he sped along.

"K-Killer! I don't know to be honest.. I was just getting food, and then there were other monsters.. a magic boulder… living ink… AND NOW ONE OF THEM IS CHASING ME!!!" G said in a panicked rush, as his pursuer sped out of the alley.

"I won't let you take MY glory from me!!!" Blue Moon screamed, as he used a bone to propel himself towards them.

"WHOA! He doesn't seem very nice!" Killer said, as he summoned his gaster blaster to ride on, flying high out of reach as Blue Moon gave chase.

Blue Moon slowed to a stop when it was clear he wouldn't be able to catch them. "GRR!!! I WON'T let a… CiViLlIaN take this from me!" he snarled.

"Brother, come now. Vantus has returned. We have all the time we need. We must stay calm, we have to go home," Gold light replied, as they retreated off to their home.

No longer being pursued, Killer and Dust made their way to the library.

"Uh… Duust?" G said entering the library, his voice sounding uncertain.

"G! Where the hell were you?!" Nightmare exclaimed. "I was getting worried! You were supposed to be back hours ago!"

"I.. uh…" G began tentatively, before it all suddenly came out in a rush. "OkaySoBasicallyI

WasJustDoingTheTourThingButThenThereWereWeirdMonstersThereAndTheyFreedVantusAnd I GOT THESE STRINGS AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!!!"

"W-what? That's ridiculous. Almost nothing can touch the strings." Dust said, still looking at his books.

"Well, tell that to these… very convincing heavy cables!" Killer suggested, causing Dust to finally look up to see G and gasp, "GAH! OH MY GOD!! YOU DO!!!! How are you touching those?!? I thought they…" he spat out, but then he paused before continuing, "You know what? Whatever, this is weird God business I don't have the capacity for right now… Just.. be careful?" he said sinking further into his beanbag chair. "Don't hit any of the books, I guess."

"What is… What the hell is that?!" Nightmare said looking confused.

"Uhh… Vantus is… back? Do you have any idea of how to deal with that?" G asked.

Dust suggested, "Well, Error 404 beat him last time. Maybe we find him?"

"What? G has the strings! He can totally do this!" Killer insisted in response.

Then Dust replied, "But he's untrained! It would be a death sentence!"

The arguement bounced between them like they were playing catch, with barely a breath between sentences, until G caught the proverbial ball, and everyone's attention, by snapping, "WOULD YOU ALL STOP GAMBLING WITH MY LIFE?!?" When the others went silent, he growled, "Damn! You get a legendary artifact and all of a sudden you can do anything, huh?!?"

To which nightmare sighed, "If we need to find Error 404, I know someone who could help with that… The most dangerous hunter I know."

—----------------------

A strange fog filled the air. Loud footsteps could be heard walking into the room. A razor sharp axe raised up as a deep voice said, "So… you want help? Well… Why don't you stay for a BITE!" A monster rumbled as he swung his axe and chopped… vegetables! As the fog faded, he added, "Can't go on a journey on an empty stomach and… G… DID YOU FORGET TO EAT?!" he chastised the skeleton as though that were the most unusual thing about this situation.

"Wha- Hunter how in the hell would you know that?!?" G replied, in surprise.

"You're gripping your chest and you look exhausted! Breakfast is the most important meal of the day! Did you at least eat breakfast?" Hunter asked in concern.

Looking distinctly uncomfortable, G replied "I-... The thing about that…" he began with a nervous chuckle, but was interrupted by Hunter yelling, "YOU FORGOT BREAKFAST?!? Oh, my God… I'm making more food." Hunter replied as he went off.

"Wha- Hunter?" Nightmare inquired, clearly confused by his friend's jovial manner. "What happened to you?! You used to be terrifying! You were a brutal… well, hunter!" Nightmare demanded.

Hunter replied with a small chuckle, "Oh, that? Heheh. My therapist said I had to calm down and focus on something positive, so I started learning to cook! And It's been really nice! Helps me pass the time, too."

Sighing in resignation, Nightmare filled hunter in on the situation.

"Wow, that bad, huh? So what, you need me to track down this God guy? Doesn't that seem a bit out of my league? I am… well, a mortal after all." Hunter said, finishing making food.

Hunter is a skeleton with a cracked hole in his skull and a red eye. He wears a white tank top, with black shorts with white stripes, and pink slippers

"Well… yeah, but it's not like I have any other options. It's said he lives around… AV mountain?" Nightmare stated, as

Hunter perked up "OH! there? I thought he'd be in like… a separate dimension or something, oh yeah, that's not too far from here. We could make it on foot in like… a week and a half?"

He replied, "that's way too long! What will Vantus do in the meantime? He'll probably wreak havoc with no-one to stop him!"

G spoke up, "W-well… there is a quicker way…" hunter said, as he pointed to all of his large, wolf-like dogs "these guys are fast, but I haven't had anyone try to ride on them before… and I don't know if I'd want to put them into harms way.but, as long as they're safe, everything should be fine." Hunter stated,

"then let's go alre-" G spoke, before getting bonked on the head with a stick "EAT." Hunter said, looking at G's untouched food. "When you are done. We leave." He finished.

—--------------------

"Aand that… about does it!" Blue Moon exclaimed, as he held out a sash with seven slots, "Brother! I have made you this for your triumphant return! When you wear it, you gain power based on what is in these vials! Souls could always work… or artifacts that can fit within will also empower you!"

"Artifacts…? Like those STRINGS?!?" Vantus yelled.

"Brother. Do not worry, the one with the strings is clearly untrained. He will be destroyed soon enough. I assure you of that." Gold light replied.

"ugh, this is too much of a headache for just coming back…" Vantus stated, as an ink beast ran into the room showing G's whereabouts,

"oh, well well, right on time. I shall retrieve them Brother," Gold light stated.

"Perhaps we should work together Brother! Maybe get some souls or something?" Blue Moon suggested, gesturing to the city

"hmm. Perhaps that would be a good idea" Vantus replied, "Let us go then" he finished.

As they went into the city. "People of this realm, bow down before your new leader! My Brother Vantus, The Ink Demon!" Blue Moon stated.

A man walked up, saying "ruler? Ain't nobody gonna rule m-" however, he was swiftly interrupted as Vantus, ripped out his orange colored soul and put it into one of the vials, "who else has questions of my reign?" Vantus yelled, "that damn glitch won't be able to do anything once I'm done." He thought to himself.

The thumping of paws echo through the forest, as the group all sprint towards AV mountain, "okay everyone, not much farther, but the terrain here is dangerous. I don't want my boys going in there. I'll stay here until you're ready to go back." Hunter stated

"thank you for bringing us this far friend." Nightmare responded, as he, killer, and G headed towards the mountain.

The rocky terrain is treacherous to traverse, and by the time they were roughly halfway through the cliff side, they heard a bong sound, as in front of them, Prince Gold light appeared.

"WHA- how did you know we'd be here?!?" G yelled, panicked.

"Where else would someone go? Besides, not like you were hiding, it's shockingly easy to find people from the sky, now then. Return what is ours mortal. You have no say in this." Prince Gold Light said, as in his hand, he materialized a large Scythe, and gestured towards the group. "you can't win" he said,

as G replied "BUT I CAN SURE TRY!" as he swiped towards Prince Gold light, only for Prince Gold light to grab the strings using Blue Moon's gloves, and pull him closer "and fail." Prince Gold light responded, as he flung G above him, and hit him with his scythe, flinging him into the mountain, and taking the strings from him.

"G!" Nightmare and killer screamed as he flew into the mountain with a large *crash*

"I have all I wanted here. Goodbye" Prince Gold light said, as in a flash he disappeared and dashed towards the city, as Nightmare and Killer mournfully returned to Hunter,

"...but now what? We just give up? If some legend won't fix this then let's be the legend!" Killer suggested,

"As lovely of a sentiment as that is, we aren't legends. And I don't think that we will be any time soon." Dust responded, as Hunter suggested "we could at least try"

"Brother Vantus. I have returned, I have what was requested" Prince Gold light stated.

"Ah, I see you are just as skilled as the day I was imprisoned, Brother." As now he has orange, teal, and purple souls, alongside now, the strings.

"And now, I will be unstoppable HAHAHAHA!!!" Vantus cackled, as he used the power he'd absorbed to transform himself. He gained an additional two arms, and two of his arms transformed into large gaster blasters, which drip colored ink like saliva. And he'd grown to be roughly 110 feet tall and his face shifted to be like that of his blasters

"AH" G groaned, he would have yelled, that is of course, if the blow hadn't knocked the wind out of him.

And for a few seconds he stayed awake, before passing out. When he awoke he said "ow… my head.. where-" He thought before swiftly remembering what happened

"GAH. Oh no… Vantus. My friends wouldn't try anything stupid… right?" He said as he struggled to move, still recovering. "H-how did that not kill me?.." he asked himself, getting out of the wall.

and falling a short distance onto the nearest ledge, before standing up and continuing up the mountain.

The top of the mountain was cold and snowy. The entire ground cloaked in white, with a thick white cloud over the mountain causing all directions to seem endless.

But after walking towards the center, He found a large wall, made of stone. With binary engravings reading "42-Gur tngrf bs vasvavgi bayl bcra sbe gubfr jub jrvyq vhf fgevatf naq ner obea bs vgf oybbq"

and as G stepped closer and touched the wall, a large line forged on it, and piece by piece, it opened into a large portal

Leading to a large Hallway, with columns to the left side, showing an infinite open field, filled with hills of varying sizes with the occasional mountain. constantly drenched in the blue light of a full moon, though it has no source.

As he continued down the hall to a short staircase upwards, he walked into a large chamber with a broken mural, and when he saw it, for a brief second he saw everything in blue ones and zeros, before he saw the mural as it was before it was worn. It depicted two humans, and three skeletons. the progenitor timeline. Alphatale.

But as he walked forward, he saw a figure in the hall. Seemingly made of code, looking backwards at him before walking forward into a large chamber.

"WAIT!" G pleaded as he ran torwards it, but when he entered the chamber, he began to see normally again, and the figure disappeared. "Was that him?" He asked as he looked around for any sign of the person.

But then in front of him, a sliver of a portal opened, before it fully opened and Error 404 stuck his head through, saying "Hey buddy!"

To which; in his shock, G jumped slightly backwards, kicking him back into the portal. before Error 404 got up and stepped fully through the portal saying "ow… is that any way to greet a new friend?"

Error 404 is a slightly taller skeleton, with blue eyes, and downwards channels under his eyes, his hands are black, and his fingertips are blue, and the bones behind to his fingertips are white, and his right arm is fully black. he's wearing black pants and short black boots with blue trim. He's wearing a black undershirt with a white hanfu shirt with blue symbols on it.

"Oh! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to do that!! I hope you'll still forg-" G was saying as he got interrupted, by William saying "Whoa whoa whoa! Stop for a sec pal calm down. Now… where are my strings?"

As G picked Right back up where he was, "-IVE ME FOR WHA-" as he was once again interrupted, "hehe, don't worry, I've been watching you for a while. Your friends are safe. But hey, Vantus may be powerful. But you can handle my strings. You can deal with that punk. If you're ever in too much trouble I can always save you. But for now, it's all you." Error 404 said,

"but I have had no training!!! How could I beat him?!? Please Mr. William, help us" G replied

"*sigh* don't worry kid. I'll train you. But right now we don't have time. Trust me." William replied. "b-but… Vantus has the strings!" G stated, with a panicked expression.

to which William said "look kid, I'm busy right now, I have to go, but I just wanted to be here to give you an explanation." sighing, he finished

"don't worry, he took em? Take em back. Simple enough." He said, winking. As G took a deep breath and said "I'll try… I guess, but how will I get back?"

As Error 404 Laughed, and said "like this." As he opened a portal underneath G, and G fell through, right above blue Moon

—-----------------

The group return to the city to see the chaos of Vantus' newly instituted reign.

"Mwehehe! Your end is nigh! No one can stop-" Blue Moon said, as he got crushed by G falling on his, as the portal closed behind him.

"get… OFF OF ME YOU IDIOT!!!" Blue Moon yelled as he threw him off of him

"HA! SURPRISE ATTACK!" Killer said as he bit blue moon with a blaster he was riding, as he flew up with him, and then flew downwards, spinning as he did so, before blasting him into the ground.

"G?!?" The others yelled in shock, aside from killer, who is too focused on fighting things to realize that G being alive isn't what he expected.

"You're alive?" Nightmare asked, confused.

As G replied "Yes!!! Why are you guys here?!?"

And Dust stated, "it was Killer's idea"

and Killer finally notices the situation, and says "OH! G! You're back?" As Blue Moon lays injured on the ground, seemingly knocked out.

"Where's Error 404?!? Weren't you getting him?" Nightmare questioned, confused.

"*Sigh* He was busy. He had to do something else important. I've gotta do this…" G responded, as everyone appeared confused.

As Dust asked "is… is Vantus not the biggest problem right now? That is… concerning." And as he finished speaking, Vantus Laughed as he looked towards them and spoke;

"you have the audacity to appear before me, interloper?" And G stepped forward, gripping his scarf, "Yes. I can't allow you to do this any longer." He stated as his left eye turned red, and he summoned a blaster.

But as he did, Prince Gold Light dashed towards them, and in that moment, a purple arrow, glowing with magic flows by, as Nightmare shoots at Him.

"Fight us Sunshine!" Nightmare sneered, "His fight is with Vantus" he continued, as Prince Gold Light flew towards him, but before he struck, he appeared to show pause, before Dust shot a blaster at him. Knocking him off course.

"Get him quickly G. We can't fight forever." Dust stated, to which Prince Gold Light laughed, and stated "do you truly believe Brother Vantus needs my help to kill him? I was simply going to expedite our victory"

"Very well trespasser. If you wish for a heros death, you'll get one" Vantus screeched lunging at him, returning to his normal form and swiping at G, which he dodged, as Vantus flung a row of bones towards him, nearly landing a blow.

And while G was distracted, Vantus swung at him, slamming him into the ground. But G summoned a Bone, and struck the vial with the strings in it.

as Vantus saw, he whispered "THE VIAL" as he threw G aside, reaching for it.

but as he reached, Killer said "DOWN LOW" And in a red flash, he struck against him, and grabbed the vial, "TOO SLOW!!" He joked, as he ran around him, towards G.

But as he did, Vantus grabbed G, saying "yes, you were" dragging him into an inky puddle.

"G!" Killer screamed, reaching for the puddle, but nothing happened.

In the puddle, G swore he heard laughing in all directions, as Vantus Jumped at him.

in fact, three Vantus' jumped towards him, as he tried to summon bones to no avail, and barely dodging the attack as the clones all dove into the ink,

and as G was stumbling, confused, just getting up, he felt a tug on his leg. as a clone crawled out grabbing his leg.

and as it rose, cackling. G summoned a blaster to dispatch of him, and though it took more effort than normal, he summoned it to destroy the clone, but as he did, two other blasters formed out of the non-existent walls of the inky abyss, firing at him. As he nearly screamed.

"I can destroy cities in an instant, why won't you DIE!!!" Vantus screamed.

as on the surface out of a moment of clarity, or desperation, Killer managed to throw the strings into the puddle.

and as Vantus formed in all directions around G, striking at him with rows of bones, the vial dropped from the ceiling.

as Vantus noticed, it was too late. And G grabbed the strings and shattered the vial, as he retook the strings, and attempted to pull himself out, and succeeded.

As he flung himself out of the pool, Vantus gave chase, pulling himself out to follow him, and once he looked up, he saw G eclipsing the moon, backlit by a radiant blue.

everyone nearby saw his safety, most in shock. But in that moment, Vantus had but a shred of fear, remembering the day he was imprisoned.

as he screamed, returning to his enlarged form, and screaming "I WILL NOT FALL AGAIN!!!"

As he did, G, with both panic and anger in his eyes, swung the strings behind him, grabbing hundreds of bones, and as he pulled forward, they flew at Vantus. but in panic, Vantus blasted both the bones, and G.

And G fell to the ground, In pain. As Vantus cackled, believing victory was his.

but as G got up, he flew at him on a blaster, but he was grabbed by Vantus screeching "IMPUDENT PEST! WHY WONT YOU DIE" and as he did, G said "b-because… I'm filled With… DETERMINATION" as he crackled with energy, flinging his strings everywhere, creating a net. Knocking Vantus into his normal form, and grabbing him, Kicking him into the ground,

As Vantus screeched "YOU CANNOT DO AS HE DID! YOU WILL NEVER BE THE BLUE DEVIL" and G stared and said, "nah, I'm just the GLITCH"

As he grabbed a large boulder, and Vantus panicked, Prince Gold Light threw Nightmare aside, as Hunter caught him.

As the Prince flew to Vantus, and he struck the boulder with his scythe, saying "it's a bit soon, don't you think?" As he dove to his brother, and as Blue Moon limped towards them, he sneered at the group; "we will return!!! My Brother WILL rule this land one day!" As Prince Gold Light teleported them home, in a flash of light

As the group recovered from the battle, Killer laughed, though exhaustedly, and said "HA! I told you we could.. do.. it." He said as he passed out, landing on Nightmare's lap.

"So… what now?" Dust asked, tired.

"Food?" G and Hunter suggested in unison.

"yeah, food sounds good." Dust replied with a slight giggle as they looked off into the sunrise.

Kyotani being an absolute disaster

Today was the day. This is it. The day Kyotani had been planning for months.

He really hoped he looked good. He usually didn't care what people thought of him. But you? god, you had him wishing he never had made people think he was a stubborn asshole.  You were such a sweet thing with a feisty attitude. He loved that about you. You didn't take any shit, but you didn't give it out either.

You were in his class but the two of you never really talked much. It was more of Kyotani staring at you while you sat there so prettily doing you work. You were a lively person. Never really preferring to stay in your own bubble. He liked that. He liked you. No, he LIKES you. God what do you do to him?

You noticed Kyotani the day you walked into class. How could you not? He carried himself with confidence and absolute anger. Guess you like 'em hot-headed huh? He had such a nice build. Those shoulders of a god and you could see outlines of muscles through his shirt. And god those hands- "Hey! Hellooo~, Are you even listening? we have a project to do!!" 

You had been staring at Kyotani again and lost track of the time. "Oh sorry! Was in the middle of a daydream." You said looking at your seating partner before glancing back at Kyotani. This time he was looking at you.

You noticed this and almost DIED. You turn seven shades of red at once and quickly turn around to glance back at your seating buddy Yahaba. Kyotani's ears almost go purple.

He notices the two of you and smirks.

"Hey Y/N?" 

"Yes?"

"Can I walk you home today?"

You looked down at the worksheet you had been given then giggled up at Yahaba.

"Just the two of us? ... Like a date~" You laughed like a maniac while he starts to panic.

"NO NO, NOT LIKE THAT! I meant me and my friend. I want to introduce you to someone."

That is how you met your best friend Kyotani Kentaro. Ever since that day it became a habit for both of them to walk you home, Yahaba leaving to turn the opposite way about a block from your house, then Kyotani a bit further down. Because Yahaba left so early you two got to know each other a lot. You even ended up hanging out on the weekends.

Sometimes with Yahaba other times without.

Needless to say, You and Kyotani were inseparable. You trusted him and he did the same with you. 

Today was a Saturday and you had made plans to study with Yahaba. You were going to invite Kyotani but you knew he never did his work, why the hell would he need to study in the first place? 

You were getting ready to go out to the Cafe.

Clothes, hair, makeup, actual work, jewlery, was that it? Were you missing anything?

SHOES! Right.

i'm so smart you think while slipping them on. You open you front door to a pink Kyotani. His hand is raised in a fist, eye-level to your face.

Then, he knocks on the door, or well rather he meant to knock on the door.

"Ow." you state more as a reflex, not hurt at all rubbing the spot on your forehead he hit.

He looks up and his eyes widen.

"I- I didn't mean t-to do that."

He swears at himself for stuttering while you get a shit eating grin on your face then laugh

"Use your words Ken."

He swears his heart skips a beat the rare occasions you call him that.

That's when you notice he was dressed in a nicer outfit.

Well it was just jeans in a shirt but he usually wears sweatpant and some plain t-shirt so its basically formal wear for him.

He stares at the ground trying to remember the speech he had mentally prepared to give you.

"Did you need something, Ken-Chan?" you ask while trying to look behind his back to see what he's hiding.

He swallows and his adam's apple bobs before he take a deep breath. He then pulls flowers out from behind his back.

Your eyes widen in surprise while Kyotani mumbles

"Gm... th... e"

You stare up at him blankly while he looks at his shoes hand stretched out toward you

GOD THOSE HANDS-

you blink as you realized what he might have said

"Im sorry what was that?"

He grumbles and clears his throat

"Go out with me."

He says a bit clearer

You smile with your eyes first then your entire face lights up to match

"You don't even have the decency to ask me, huh? 

He rolls his eyes, "Is that a yes or a no?"

"Yes Ken, I would love to go out on a date with you!"

Yahaba sees Kyotani at your house and smiles, he's happy for you two.

He really is!

At least that's what he tells himself.

He's had a huge crush on you since you two were seated together. But he knew this was going to happen.

The way you two snuck glaces at each other.

How you always sat next to Kyotani while you went out to eat.

How you always walked next to him.

Sneaky smiles.

Flirty teasing.

He knew he should be happy for his best friend but he saw you first!

He knows it's childish. He can't just have you all to himself

But he wants nothing more

"Yes Ken, I would love to go out on a date with you"

His heart damn near stops. He looks at the way you smile at Kyotani and decides that maybe you'd be happier with him anyways.

He'd have better luck with the next girl he had eyes for.

2/3 Eren Yeager (Smut Warning!)

(๑˃ᴗ˂)ﻭ

That's why I fucked yo' bitch, you fat motherfucka!

The screenshot sound was pretty loud as your back went up and down like a roach sprayed with raid. The male on the other side of the phone laughing his ass off. Well, he wasn't the only one.. but he's the one who took the screenshot.

"Delete that shit, don't put it on Instagram Connie!" Your pretty face was immediately in the camera's view. Your eyes a little wide at the fact that you were caught off guard. But at the same time, you let yourself go in front of the group. That's your wrong doing. But it made them smile nonetheless.

The people who were on the call at the moment were Connie, Jean, and Sasha. The rest were either too bothered to be in such a crackhead group, or they were busy.. probably the first one. Anyways, everyone in first period happened to be your friend, they were all different but they adored you nonetheless... even Annie... she just hides hers pretty well. Anyways, It's almost the end of senior year already and the bond is hard to break..

"That's my favorite song, you can't be catchin a hoe off guard.." you scolded the bald male who still happened to be laughing. His controller in his hand since he was playing nba2k. Jean was also playing but at the moment he was trying to figure out what you were doing.. and he's mad he didn't see..

"What did she do now?!"

"She was throwing her back out of place!" Sasha muffled out as she was stuffing her cheeks with a Hershey chocolate bar. She was also watching Hell's Kitchen on her tv, you could hear it.

"Daddy Jean aint need to hear all that.." you playfully spoke as you bit your lip at him. It was obvious he liked you, not to the point where he wanted a relationship though.. he's just a bit of a man whore.

Though everytime you mumble a 'Daddy Jean' , he's all for it. That's yo bitch.

After a bit of a pause of talking, Connie had picked up his phone and you were now cleaning the table that was in your room. The last time you were in this room, you didn't even have time to clean... Your father was screaming for you to hurry.

Let's explain, this weekend, you are visiting Hange, your mother . She missed you so she invited you to stay for a few days. Today is Friday so you have the whole weekend with her. She had planned Saturday and Sunday. Not to mention, Monday is a holiday so no school. 

"Hey guys... uh Armin and Eren having a party.. y'all comin?"

All while Sasha said yes, along with Jean.. you were still jamming to 2-pac spitting his shit. Your hand movements not going unseen by the three on your phone. So in result of not having a response from you, Connie screamed oh so suddenly which caused you to jump pretty high.

"What the Fuck is yo problem!? You bein held by gunpoint nigga?" Your voice showing 1% concern as you moved closer to the phone on your dresser and you stared into it.. quite surprised still.

"(Y/n)... you makin my hair fall out..." Connie spoke as he gave a sarcastic smile and... wow it was hard for everyone to suppress their laughter... your face would turn purple instead of red though..

"Ight~... watchu want?..."

"Eren-"

"Oooh, Eren.." you spoke in interest, your long eyelashes fluttering. This however made Jean and Connie 'throw up' at the same time. All while you rolled your (e/c) eyes.

"Yall do too much-.. and Jean, stay in yo game ight?.. befo I come through the screen and punch-"

"Eren havin a party.. are you going..?"

Tilting your head in slight disbelief that Connie interrupted you. Your eyes rolled as you looked to the side. Obviously leading them on, but at the same time they knew that Hange will let you go...

"Fine. But somebody pickin me up.. and Sasha cuz boo-boo can't drive worth a dime.."

(๑˃ᴗ˂)ﻭ

As much as you hated it, you sat uncomfortably in the dodge... Ugh... It's just something about you and dodge's. The cars radiate fuck boy energy, and guess who happened to be driving this car? Jean..

Though he let you sit in the passenger seat just because. Your eyes staring out the window as you messed with the stockings you had on. They were in a bit of a web, that was the design. You also had on a plaid skirt and this crop top with some white platforms. Oh you looked scrumptious.

The person who put this outfit together in the first place was Hange.

"Baby Jean, you need a new car... cuz-"

"It radiates Fuck boy energy.. you said it the first time you ever saw it... I know.." Jean pouted as he continued to drive to Eren's house. Who was shared with Armin. The two always lived together, some speculated that they were... sparkle sparkle.. gay.. but they aren't.. not that you would've minded.. it just would've been a bummer.

"(Y/n)... Didn't Your father take your car away...?"

Glaring back at Connie, who was wearing a white shirt with black pants and some timbs. You rolled your eyes and looked through your window again.

"Yeah but my car is a Mitsubishi.."

The neighborhood around these parts were quite pretty. Just like where you lived with your dad. But at the same time you were confused as to how Eren and Armin could afford such a place. The first thing popping in your mind being. Drug dealer and then you thought about what Sukihana said about dating them...

That's probably why Levi didn't want you around him... Yeah.. This whole senior year has been Levi making sure Eren doesn't sit beside you... nor have a project with you... It's like he barely existed at first. Though you always had these ways to talk to him. He's not even that bad.. he's quite the hottie and he knows what to say... he's just a flirt, and you edge him on every time...

"(Y/n)! Can you come with me to find the food?"

Snapping out of those thoughts of Eren, you didn't even realize Jean had already parked. A small 'mhm' coming from your throat as you opened the car door. Everyone else doing the same. Lord it was a bunch of people out here. People were outside and inside which was baffling honestly.

A soft hand touched your wrist and started to drag you towards the house door. It was Sasha, her mouth almost watering for something to eat. She told Eren to make sure there was extra cheese in the fridge for her. Hidden... and lo and behold when you both shimmied through the crowd, the cheese was in the fridge. Her eyes beaming as she grabbed some chips as started eating like it was her last meal, nothing out of the ordinary.

"This music actually hits..." you spoke out to nobody in particular as your hips started to move ever so gently. Though as nice as your body was, it looked more seductive than anything. Popping one of those chips into your mouth as your hips continued to wine ever so gently.

The looks you were getting, not only lustful but want... The way your long dreads just complimented your look had only made it worse. The second you decide to stop, it seemed like everyone stopped looking at you. In slight despair that you'd stopped. Though one individual in particular was continuing to stare...

His hand, wrapped around the cup as he'd sipped at the liquid inside. The black ring on his middle finger caused his hand to look hotter than it already was. He had these prominent veins that would just look so pretty on your brown skin...

"She likes you too..." the blonde that was a tad bit shorter spoke to his childhood friend, Eren.

"What makes you say that..." lord, somehow over all this music, and his low tone... you could still feel the vibration of Eren's voice. Just glancing from the kitchen as Eren was sitting on the couch in the living room. Leaning back like he owned the place... well he did.

Fine ass..

Giving him a bit of a stare, your glossy lips curved into a smirk as you glanced at him up and down. All before turning your attention back to your friend who was having the time of her life eating...

"So Sash.. what's up with you and Connie...? Yall gon date.. or-"

"(Y/n)!"

"My bad.. my bad.. I just wanted to know"

The party was a bit lively, more than anything since this is a longer weekend. So everyone was happy.. including you because they were playing your favs. So of course your body started to move again. That skirt of yours being a paid actress in helping you look more hot. Though, what you did not expect was someone coming up behind you...

Now that's nasty..

You whipped your head around about to give them an earful... though... you saw that smexy... face and you looked kinda shocked...

"Oh..." you choked out before turning your head again.. Eren's evil little smirk had caught you off guard. It boosted his confidence even more that you didn't feel the need to even move away from him. His hands slithering onto your full hips.

Man, he was really risking everything this time... considering your father is.. Levi...

This however was thrown out of the window because of the fact that you could feel Eren's... crotch against that thick form of yours. That little smirk on your face only widening as you started to gently rub against him, your back bending over somewhat.

His long brown hair then started to ever so gently fall in front of his face as his greenish eyes stared hard into your body. That harsh little grip on your waist made you feel all different types of high. Gawd.

"You like that huh...? I know.." your cute, but seductive voice made Eren chuckle just a tad. It causing you to almost choke on those words.. This man didn't need to TRY to be hot... he was already smexy.

His hands then started to travel up your body to your arms and he gently pulled you up towards him, your back against his scrumptious chest. All you could do was open your mouth a bit, quite surprised that he wanted to be this close with you.

"Eren... You a lil close... you needa tell me sum?"

The way you spoke, the way you carried yourself... it was new to Eren when he first met you.. but he got used to it real quick and he noticed he wanted something he never knew existed.. and that was you.

"Can't tell you here... but I can tell you in the bedroom..." Eren purred out, his voice smooth as a babies skin, smooth as butter. It caused you to tingle, the female between your legs wanting that more than anything.

Biting your glossy lips, the room started to become hotter than it already was. The people who were in the house started to pile out of the main and started to go outside. It was quite cold outside as well, but the party continues.

"Where the hell is (Y/n)..." Jean spoke to himself as he watched Connie and Sasha become drunks in two seconds. It was obvious he himself could not drink since he is the driving parent tonight.. but he now had nothing to do... he's just wondering where... you are..

(๑˃ᴗ˂)ﻭ

"S-..Shit Eren~..."

The (f/c) nails you had were now digging into Eren's muscular arms as his lips caressed your neck. The seductive kisses making dark marks on your brown, beautiful skin.

Your head being thrown back onto the soft black pillow as your pretty toes curled. Feeling Eren's slender fingers inside of your pussy. His intimidating green eyes watching your every expression, every move. Seeing that your crop top was already rolled up over your pretty chocolate mound breasts that were covered with your bra.

"E-Eren, s-stahp..." choking that out, you could hear the loud rip of your stockings when Eren moved his hand out of them. The wetness of your brown pussy lips being known pretty well when Eren's fingers slid your panties to the side.

"You don't want me to stop... huh...?"

"N-No.."

The electricity shocked through you when you watched Eren stare down into your eyes. Lust and want, all in them as his key necklace dangled in front of your face ever so gently.

His shirt immediately being discarded as he watched your pussy pulse from his fingers being pulled away from it. It was amazing to him how much you wanted him.. it was amazing... it ran something through him...

All you could see was his muscular frame, his hands to match as he easily tore through your bra. Watching the way your breasts fumbled out of the cups. He never seen a black woman's breasts before.. but it couldn't get any better than this though.. is what he thought.

"Daddy~... don't stare at em..." you pouted playfully before licking your glossy lips. Just running your fingers up Eren's arms as you eventually made your way up to his luscious hair. Running your fingers through the locks. Pulling him down ever so gently to finally get that kiss you wanted.

Eren's eyes glowed when he felt your soft lips, the lip gloss giving him this taste of lovely. His lips tasted of some sugar, kinda made you wonder what was in his cup before this.

The wetness of Eren's tongue touching yours as the both of you withered in this naughty, sloppy kiss. Something you both weren't supposed to do.... It was fun, crazy... scary..

"You act all bad outside of the bedroom huh... but you ain't ever have someone touch you..." Eren teased gently, in a whisper against your lips. His hand gripping your chin as he stared at your innocent looking face. Gently spitting all nastily into your mouth and you moaned out seductively. Swallowing it so easily..

"Show daddy you'll be able to take it..."

Eren's cock was so hard in his pants, it being unzipped by him and his underwear was now restricting his release. His eyes staring at your pretty pussy, the wet, pink insides were bright and untouched. Though his pale cock was eager to invade it.

"I-.. I can take it daddy..." your whimpers echoed In Eren's ears as he pushed his underwear down. Your knees being pushed to your chest as you felt Eren's stare. The plaid skirt you had was still on, so you tried to cover your pretty pussy with it.

"Stop... don't hide now.." Eren scoffed out as he gripped under your thighs, the underside of his cock rubbing up and down your wet and gooey pussy.

"Hold your legs... don't move.."

It was so demanding, your pussy clenching already as the wetness dripped down to your other hole. Your pretty, long nails visible to Eren as you held your legs as tightly as you could. Knowing Eren's cock was a monster. You could see it... right between your legs.. right between your brown pussy lips.. the contrast was unbelievable..

"F-Fuck!! Eren~~ ow~" the way your painted toes curled gave Eren a shiver of excitement. Your back arching ever so slightly as your virgin hole was taken away from you. Squeezing tightly around Eren's experienced cock.

"Shh.. it's Ight.. take it babydoll.." Eren's whisper was gentle and sincere as his thumb started to gently rub at your clit. Causing you to swallow your spit, though it spilled out. What also spilled out is your loud whimper. Your legs staying wide open for him as your hand slowly slid up his muscular structure.

"It's .. i-it's so big..."

Hearing these whimpers and words spill from your throat, Eren couldn't help but take his hand and wrap it around your throat. Causing your breath to be taken away oh so suddenly when Eren snapped his hips forward even more.

"Fuck!" Your moan could probably be heard outside as your breasts bounced from the impact. Eren's smirk wide as he felt the tightness of your insides. His necklace going back and forth ever so gently as his pelvis started to clap against you. The feeling was so foreign to you, having someone ram into you like this. But it was Eren... it wasn't just 'someone'..

Your (f/s) scent was powering against Eren's own scent. The feeling of Eren's cock was starting to really take a toll on you..

"A-Ahgh..."

Eren's cock was being enclosed so tightly, you just wet up his Dick so well.. he was starting to become obsessed.. more than he already was.

"Daddy's. little. pussy..." his deep voice echoed in your ears as he started to get a bit faster. Your breasts bouncing even more as Eren made sure that skirt was moved out the way. He wanted to make sure to see everything. His hand squeezing harder at your throat. It was keeping you firm against the bed, like a little fuck doll...

"I-it's your pussy Eren~"

Curling those pretty toes again, you could feel the bubbles in your lower region. The craziest orgasm you've ever experienced... just tip toeing to the tippy top. All you could muster was a pathetic whine. Your eyes watering up behind your long eyelashes.

"I'm-.. I'm cumming..." Your voice was so weak, it sounded like you were passing out almost. Just rolling your eyes back as the bed frame started to hit the wall. Your pussy gushing more than usual as the white cum started to coat Eren's cock a little.

"Shit... yeah~..." Eren growled under his breath, watching you come undone on his pale cock. Your thicker form was just so adorable, looking all bent up. Your locs scattered around ever so softly.

It was like he was fucking a goddess...

Eren was between harsh and soft, his manhandling ways were shown easily by the way he pulled out quickly and turned you over. Your plump ass shaking like jello as his cock easily slipped inside once again.. filling you up for the second time. God you just couldn't wait till you could feel his cum...

"Imma Fuck you till you turn dumb..." Eren spoke harshly as his long fingers gripped at some of your locs. Pulling them and wrapping them around his wrist somewhat. Gaining all control over you and your own body...

He wasn't playing either...

[faith-trustpixiedust]

So we were all at least a little disappointed in the royal wedding special, as I assumed we would be. That's why for the past month or so, I've been planning my own version of Mal and Ben's wedding. I might eventually write a oneshot or even a short fanfic based on my ideas but for now, here's the basics of what I would have put into the special!

Their wedding takes place a few years after their engagement, for a variety of reasons. It gives all of Auradon time to adjust to the new normal of the barrier being taken down. Additionally it takes a lot of pressure off of Ben and Mal; they don't have to worry about facilitating healing villain/hero relationships, starting college, and planning a wedding all at the exact same time.

Carlos is in this, which makes it leagues better than the Disney made wedding already. Also, all of Ben and Mal's friends from the three movies are present, not just Jay, Evie, Dizzy, and Audrey.

The plot doesn't center on Hades accidentally causing problems. Everyone has been through enough, they don't need another Auradon being threatened plot. Instead, it has a lot to do about family: those who you are born with, those who you choose, those who you reject, those who you marry into.

Hades has a moment of feeling like he isn't worthy of walking Mal down the aisle, he thinks that since he wasn't around for her childhood, he shouldn't have such a big part in her wedding. Mal tells him that he's her dad, for better or for worse, and that she wants him to walk her down the aisle. He still insists that he shouldn't be the one to do it, so Evie, Jay, and Carlos all join him. Evie and Hades each on one side of Mal, Jay on Evie's other side, and Carlos on Hades' other side, walking the ring bearer lizard/mother of the bride Maleficent. There's also a Space Between moment between the core four right before Mal walks down the aisle, which makes Evie cry, and she asks Mal "is my mascara smudged?".

Speaking of Hades, Persephone accompanies him as his date to the wedding. Mal is okay with this, and actually is quite happy to have another positive parental figure in her life. Maleficent on the other hand, bites Persephone on the ankle and hisses at her.

Evie is still Mal's maid of honor and dress designer. The other bridesmaids are Uma, Lonnie, Jane, and Celia, with Dizzy as the flower girl. Despite his many, many flaws, Chad is one of Ben's few male friends that isn't more chummy with Mal than he is him, so he's the best man. Doug, Harry, Jay, and Carlos are all groomsmen. Gil is the flower man and accompanies Dizzy down the aisle. It's perhaps the best thing to ever happen to him. Maleficent is the ring bearer, possibly against her will but she didn't run away when asked to do it, so Mal took that as agreement. Fairy Godmother is the officiant. Audrey volunteered to be their wedding planner, which I had actually thought of before seeing the special so props to me I guess?

The wedding has a blue and purple color scheme, with each member of the bridal party wearing a different shade of blue with a purple bouquet/boutonnierre/flower crown. Each of the girls chose her favorite shade, and Evie made them an outfit to match it. The boys' outfits were more assigned at random, but Carlos' suit has shorts, which was very important to him. (Evie forbid Jay from wearing a sleeveless suit jacket and dress shirt and he grudgingly obliged.) Also, Gil's suit is made out of the same material as Dizzy's dress, but I couldn't find that online anywhere so this is just an approximation of what his outfit looks like.

The wedding is a formal ceremony in the early afternoon that takes place at the same chapel that hosted Ben's coronation. The entire kingdom is invited, because Mal didn't want to start someone's villain origin story by not inviting them to her wedding. The ceremony is followed by a reception with high tea instead of a cocktail hour, then a sit down dinner in the evening. Dancing and fireworks end the night. Additionally, Mal has her coronation the day after/a few days after the wedding, to make everything a bit less stressful for her.

For the ceremony, Mal wears a white and light purple ball gown. In my version, it's much more elegant than in Disney's, because at the end of the day, while Mal might have been more comfortable in a more purple gown, it is a royal wedding, which includes a certain amount of tradition. She does wear combat boots underneath though. For the reception, she changes into a purple blue and black color shifting dress with a light purple leather jacket. She wears a light purple gown reminiscent of the one she wore to Ben's coronation for her own coronation, and Evie made all of these dresses for her.

Honestly? I'm not mad at the idea of Ben wearing Auradon regalia like he did at his coronation, Mal's cotillion, or in the royal wedding special. I just want it to be something a bit more...elevated? Especially since he often wears a suit in day to day life.

Maleficent turns human at some point during the reception (I envision her as a lizard similar in size to an Asian water monitor lizard up until that point) because while watching the wedding, she learned to love, and realizes that she wants to be a part of Mal's life. However, she still wears a dramatic black dress entirely inappropriate for her daughter's wedding, because that's just who she is.

They went all out with desserts at the wedding. Mal insisted on chocolate covered strawberries and Ben insisted on the gray stuff. They would have been happy with just that but Audrey freaked at the idea of them not having a cake. They also added chocolate fountains for the many VKs that love them and macarons for the many Auradonians that love them. They also gave out small boxes of sugar covered almonds, as it is a tradition in both Greek and French weddings.

Overall, they keep with a lot of wedding traditions (the first dance, bouquet toss, the first time they see each other being when Mal walks down the aisle), reject some (the garter toss, children as ring bearers and flower girls) as well as embracing new things (writing their own vows, having a painter at the reception to capture the night on canvas).

Anyway, this is just my own wish fulfillment version of Descendants: The Royal Wedding because I feel like Disney Channel really did the fandom dirty with the special they put out. But this is also in no way me saying "wah this is the only way it should have gone!", I love seeing what everyone else wanted from it too!!

Also, if anyone wants to see this written...let me know because I'll definitely do it if there's enough interest.

Inosuke College AU 

Word count: 1,350

Major: Kinesiology 

Minor: Psychology 

Sports: Judo, Rugby

Clubs: Tanjiro signed him up for a ceramics club, and he goes only to try and one up him (Which is not the point of the club at all smh) but he attends every meeting without fail.

He's that dude that walks into the lecture hall wearing the most outrageous and eye-catching outfits

You just can't help but see him and instantly know what he's like to talk to 

Neon orange athletic shorts with a hawaiian shirt so stereotypical it makes your eyes twitch in displeasure 

Add some burkenstock sandals worn with mismatched socks and you have Inosuke

Just by looking at him you know he is quite the personality to work with

And he is, but he is intelligent and definitely pulls his weight in projects

Will chastise his classmates if they get injured while doing the more active labs 

But he does that while tending to their injuries so you know he cares about their wellbeing

It's quite sweet of him! 

Well it would be if every 3rd word wasn't a swear

That doesn't mean he has terrible grades though.

No he actually does quite well in his courses and there's one simple reason as to why;

he's genuinely hard working 

Which surprises nearly everyone who sees him.

But that only makes him work harder

You see Inosuke decided to actually get an education for the simple reason that everyone assumed he was too stupid to do anything with his life

He originally wanted to do Zoology but then he realized that he has too much energy, which ends up scaring off most animals 

Which defeats the whole "study of animals" part of Zoology 

Of course his Mom was in his corner despite this, really only wanting her son to be happy and find his own success

So he wouldn’t make the same mistakes she did in her youth

Inosuke actually got advice from his mom which helped him settle on Kinesiology as his degree

But once he settled on his degree he was set in stone

His pseudo-step dad offered to pay for his schooling but Inosuke said "I would rather swallow a truck whole than be indebted to you"

And then took out a shit ton of loans to pay for everything 

Which only amused his pseudo-dad and made his mom worry a tad

He manages to work a part time job flipping burgers over the summer which was enough to let him pay for his books and meal plan outright for the first year

And yet despite seeing him bust his ass to be able to go to school people still tried to dissuade him from doing anything further with his life

Which only made him work harder

His whole attitude towards school is "man this sucks but also fuck anyone and anything that tries to make me quit: No You" 

Inosuke even takes pride in the dropped jaws that come from seeing him at the top of his courses

The boy has never once gotten lower than an 80% on an assignment 

He does best in his statistics course simply because both Tanjiro and Zenitsu are also enrolled in that block 

Inosuke is competitive 

In his other courses nobody stirs up that aggressive competitive spirit like Tanjiro and Zenitsu do in their shared Stat course

And with the pair of them around him, Inosuke feels the urge to out do both to the point where he likes to imagine their feelings of inferiority will crush them like a 1 ton block of the densest concrete imaginable 

Inosuke actually made Zenitsu stop breathing from sheer shock and awe when he realized what Inosuke's minor was

Psych is Zenitsu's major (the duo don't share any courses for psychology so they didn't know until then) and it caused Zenitsu to go on a rant to the effect of, " to think that pig headed idiot is doing better than me, that must be a lie! LIAR" 

That rant made Inosuke laugh so hard he fell off the table he was sitting on

He actually bruised a rib because of it

It remains Inosuke's favourite memory of Zenitsu because of this

And he wants to see how else he can make him turn purple with rage 

Hence he often comes up with weird ways to try and express his perceived academic superiority over his friends rivals 

Zenitsu falls for the weird competitive schemes Inosuke comes up with 

Tanjiro decidedly does not, in fact he doesn't really care so long as nobody actually gets hurt

Does that stop Inosuke from trying to outdo him? N o p e

If Tanjiro gets 96% on an assignment Inosuke must get 100% 

What can I say Inosuke is a competitive guy 

And it works for him as motivation 

Maybe a little too well if Inosuke has anything to say about it 

(He was embarrassed bc he got called out publicly at his grad ceremony for not just outstanding academic excellence but by the elderly head of the department for "being the Kinesiology student with the highest grades since the founding of the department" )

The metal he received from the department head totally does not hang on the wall in his mom's house 

Speaking of competitive spirit at school

He trains really hard for both Judo and Rugby

Its a great way for Inosuke to burn off both his aggression towards all the frustrating people he's stuck interacting with and his pent up energy 

Kicking ass just makes his temperament a lot easier to deal with for others and he will use ' sports practice' excuse to leave whatever social situation he doesn't want to be in

He just really likes contact sports okay

And by God is he good at them

Like takes home trophies and metals kinda good

Which also aren't being kept at him mom's house where he definitely doesn't have displayed where she can see them and be proud of him

However due to his tendency to be aggressive with the intensity of interest he has in things

Tanjiro signed Inosuke up for a ceramics class 

He thought that Inosuke would do well with something relaxing to do while still keeping it tactile enough to keep him interested 

It did not go over as well as Tanjiro had hoped

But despite this Inosuke still goes to every single club meet up without fail

Is he good at it? No 

Is Tanjiro? Definitely 

Does that make Inosuke steaming mad? Yep

Inosuke generally sucks at making clay things symmetrical 

So every plate or bowl or vase he makes ends up lopsided 

Inosuke will die before he admits to Tanjiro that he was glad for being signed up after he gave his Mom the successful first mug he made and she smiled brighter than she had in years 

It was bright green with blue and purple childlike butterfly drawings on it and the glaze wasn't spread evenly so it looks a little patchy 

And the handle is proportional too large and thin for the cup itself

But Inosuke's mom loves it more than any other mug in the house

And now every time he goes home to see her and she uses that mug, he finds himself quite happy 

But he will deny it thoroughly. 

All in all he loves getting the chance to go to College 

He may hate the judgy people he's forced to encounter regularly but Inosuke does adore the chance to learn and explore new interests 

Not to mention the people he gets to interact with 

Even if he knows the debt will weigh heavy on his bank account for a long while.

He still thinks it was all worth it.

Rocket Queen

0.7: Unwanted Apology

Henley's P.O.V

It's been two days since that hectic night. Madeline and I managed to get home just before sunrise with the help of Duff and Steven. Luckily, they had a car and offered to give us a lift. Honestly, I don't know how it would've went if they hadn't gave us a ride.

Apparently, Steven gave Madeline his number. She's been calling him nonstop. The only reason I know that is because Jake calls me and complains about it.

"I don't know who she's talking to but it's getting annoying!" Jake told me last night.

I just laughed at him and told him to go to bed. We had school today, so yay. A fucking Monday. To be completely honest, I forgot about the threat that Hyde imposes.

That was, until Hyde came up to me after school, knocking me out of my thoughts from the past few days.

"Hello, Henley," Hyde says, venom in his voice.

I turn around, seeing how bad Hyde's face looks. I cringe at the sight. His face is swollen and purple with bruises everywhere. Damn, Duff sure did do a number on him.

"Hey," I say nervously. God, what does he want with me?

"I haven't seen you since the other night," He says, leaning against the locker behind him. "Tell me, how's your lover boy?"

I blush as I realize he's talking about Duff. His hazel eyes pop into my mind. I really want to see him again. "Uh, he's fine. You gave him a good scratch on his head."

Hyde laughs. "Good. The fucker deserved it."

I try my best to not let my anger flare up. "Duff didn't deserve any of that. I did. It was my fault. Besides, you right about all of it anyway."

Hyde huffs, looking down at his feet. "No I wasn't. I was already drunk and took out the frustration I had on you. You were right about Stephanie. I don't know why I went out with her anyway."

I laugh. "Cause you were lonely?"

"That had to have been it," He responds.

We both laugh for a few moments before growing quiet again.

"I actually came over here to apologize."

I sigh, looking at him skeptically. "I dunno, Hyde."

"I didn't mean any of that. I really did that. If anything, you're the most amazing girl I've ever met," Hyde explains, trying to get me to forgive his harsh words.

"Des mots saouls, des pensees sobres," I respond, grabbing the rest of my books from my locker.

"What?" Hyde laughs, shaking his head. "I didn't know you spoke Spanish."

I laugh, shutting the locker door. "For one, it's French. And it means, "Drunk words, sober thoughts"."

"And what exactly does that mean?"

I sigh, clutching my books to my chest. I fake a smile at him. "It means, yeah, you might have been drunk, but you said those words because of the liquid courage. It gave you the balls to say it to my face. I'm sure you thought all of that about me. And I don't blame you." I sigh, looking down at my shoes. "It's all true." My eyes snap back up at him. I narrow my eyes. "You may have been right but that in no way means I forgive you."

I walk away from Hyde, feeling a headache form. In a way I wish that Friday night never happened. But then again, Madeline never would've met Steven. She really likes him. More than she's ever liked a guy before.

As I walk through the halls, I see my favorite pair of siblings plus Evangeline. Madeline's eyes are wide with happiness as she animatedly talks to Eva about something. I smile at everyone as I stand next to Jake. Madeline is telling Eva all about this awesome outfit she got last week. She's beyond excited about it, which is very peculiar. She's never this happy about clothes. I mean, neither am I unless it's a new Motley Crue shirt that Tommy sent me.

"Hey, Henley," Jake says from next to me, a huge smile on his face.

"Hello, Jacob," I respond formally, causing a smile to appear on his face.

He's quiet for a moment, listening to his sister's high pitched squealing about the perfect shoes she found before tuning her out. "What're you doing tonight?"

"Uh, well, I was probably gonna phone my best friend from L.A. Why?"

"I was wondering if you wanted to hang out or something?" He takes a glance at his sister who's full attention is now on us. "Just us?"

I open my mouth to answer, but Madeline screeches the answer for me.

"She can't!"

"I can't?"

"Yes! We have plans tonight, remember!" She responds, her eyebrows raising. She mouths the word "Stevie" to me without her brother or Eva noticing somehow.

I nod my head, understanding flooding my features. "That's right. Yeah we got plans. Maybe some other time though?"

"Oh," Jake says, looking rather put out. "Yeah, that's fine."

The bell rings, signaling the end of school. Madeline grabs my hand, pulling me out the front doors of this piss poor school. The girl is so happy she's nearly skipping after she links her arm with mine. I laugh at her, shaking my head. This is probably the happiest I've seen her. Stevie must be treating her right.

"So, how's you and 'Stevie" doing?" I ask, nudging her lightly in the ribs.

She giggles a bit at the sound of her new guy's name. "We're doin' awesome. In fact, we have a date tonight."

"Okay, that's nice and all. Don't take this the wrong way, but what does this have to do with me?"

"Because, Duff's tagging along so you are too," She responds, a smile still painted on her cherry red lips.

I laugh, side eyeing her. "When the hell was my Monday night decided?"

"Last night when me and Stevie made the plans," She says, shrugging her shoulders like she didn't just throw me into a situation I probably didn't want to be in.

"Thanks for telling me only hours before we're going out," I say, sarcasm thick in my voice.

"You're welcome," Madeline says, not phased at all. She takes a look at the watch that sits on her wrist. "We have an hour to get ready. You definitely aren't goin' out wearing that."

I look down at my outfit, instantly feeling offended. I'm wearing the newest concert shirt that Tommy sent me, my ripped up blue skinny jeans, worn out combat boots, and an oversized bomber jacket that I'm positive was Tommy's. I used to kinda steal his clothes when I'd go over to his place. What can I say? I like oversized things. Back to the point, I think I look great today.

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"It's just, that's not really something you'd wear on a date."

I scoff. "This isn't my date."

Madeline smiles, a mischievous glint in her eyes. "Don't act like you don't like Duff."

"'Like' as in I only spent one night with the guy, then yeah sure. I like Duff," I scoff, rolling my eyes. "I barely met him."

"I barely met Stevie," She says, nudging me.

I sigh. "That's cause you don't have problems opening up to people like I do."

"Maybe Duff could change that for you."

I smile at her hopefulness. Between the two of us, she's always been the more optimistic. No matter what she's always got her eyes set on the bright side. Completely opposite of me. I've always been very pessimistic. I'm always skeptical with everything. Hell, I was even skeptical when Madeline wanted to be friends with me. I still don't let her in on parts of my life-such as Athena and Tommy-but I have let her in on a lot. I'm constantly looking at the worst possible outcome. My mom claims that it's because of how I dress. I know for a fact that's bullshit because Tommy nearly dresses the same as me and he's the happiest person I know. Er-well- I guess I should say goofiest.

"Maybe," I say, for once letting myself feel a little bit of hope. Maybe he will be able to change that for me. I just have to be willing to take that leap.

"Anyways!" Madeline exclaims, unlinking our arms. She grabs my hand and starts to almost run, pulling me along behind her. "We have some getting ready to do!"

I laugh, letting her pull me down the empty street. I guess this date can't be that bad.

Just be yourself. Don't let him believe you're something you're not.

Although, after that scary judge of character that night in the bathroom, I think he might already know everything about me.

The sun was too bright as it hit your eyes, peeking in through your blinds, you rolled to the side, groaning softly as you reached out for him, only to huff in annoyance as you found the bed empty aside from you. "Joonie?" You whined, not ready to wake up, you rolled onto your back and tried to block the sun out with your hands. "I'm right here." You heard his voice come from the bathroom as the door shut, and he stepped back out. "Come back to bed." You pouted, stretching your arms out for him, and making grabbing motions for him to hug you. A smile graced his lips, and he laughed as he leaned down, hugging you tightly. When his body was in reach you latched onto him, wrapping your legs around his waist to pull him down completely onto the bed. "I just got dressed babe." He laughed as you made a 'humph' noise. Burying your nose in his exposed collarbone. "Why would you go and do that?" You complained, already feeling sleep crawling it's way back to you. "It's noon, I was going to wait until I was ready to wake you up, give you as much time to sleep as I could." He hummed, running his fingers delicately through your hair. "Not enough time." You complained, whining in protest as he began to pull away from you. "Come on, I'll make breakfast while you get dressed." He promised, making you laugh softly. "You're a terrible cook Joon." You mumbled, pouting as he pulled away completely. "We have cereal." He smirked as you groaned. "Just five more minutes. Come back to bed." You whined, extending your arms again. "Please?" Your voice was softer as you whispered the word, making him sigh as he crawled back into the bed with you. "Just five more." He told you. You hummed in response, laying your face in his neck again as you let yourself fall back asleep.

"Flour?" You asked, looking up from the shopping list in your hands, your eyes watching Namjoon's back as he looked at the eggs in his hands. "Are you planning on baking something?" You asked, watching him smile as he set the eggs into the shopping cart, "a cake." He responded, looking up at you, and your heart fluttered as you saw his wide smile, and couldn't question him further as he grabbed the cart and led both it and you down to a different aisle. "Why exactly are we making a cake?" You questioned, stopping to think if it was any of the boys' birthday today. "Cause." He shrugged, "it sounded like fun." He smiled again before turning to face the shelf of flour. "Alright Mr. Fun, have you ever made a cake before?" You asked, he shrugged as he picked two bags of flour off the shelf and compared them. "Not that I can recall." He replied, cocking his head to the side as he read the bag of flour. "Right, and do we have a cake pan at home?" You questioned, quirking an eyebrow as he turned to face you, his lips pursed as he thought about it. "No." He finally replied. You shook your head with a smile, rolling your eyes at him, you stepped forward and grabbed a bag of flour from his hands, and set it in the cart. "How about you read from the list, and let me do the shopping? That way a cake might actually get made." You smiled as he nodded. "That's sounds like a good idea." He agreed, taking the list from you as you took control of the cart. "Hey." You said softly, making him face you as he set the other bag of flour back on the shelf. "Yeah?" He asked, walking over to you. You smiled at him, and leaned over, kissing his lips softly. He smiled against your lips and put his hands on either side of your face, holding you close until you pulled away. "I love you." You hummed softly, turning and beginning to push the cart down the aisle as he followed. "I love you too."

"She gave everything up for a boyfriend." Namjoon shook his head, pursing his lips as you laughed softly. "Don't laugh at me. Am I wrong? No! She abandoned her whole family for the prince." He threw his hands up in exasperation, "yes I'm aware. You do know that I was sitting right next to you watching the same movie right?" You laughed, facing him as he rolled his eyes, shoving your shoulder as he stood up and walked to the kitchen. "Would you do that for me?" He asked, leaning against the kitchen island and facing you. "Abandon my entire world and run off with you to some strange world?" You asked, turning in your spot to look at your boyfriend, your eyebrows raised in amusement as he smiled. "Yeah. Would you?" He asked again, taking a step towards you. You pursed your lips, pretending to think about it. "I'm just kidding Jagiya, I'm not that bad of a guy, I'd throw away my world for you." He smiled, walking over, he leaned down and kissed you, his lips were barely on your for a few seconds until he pulled away, walking back to the kitchen, leaving you feeling incomplete without him. "Of course I would give up my world for you, don't be a weenie." You pouted, standing up, making him scoff from the kitchen, "헤이! 무례 할 필요가 없다." He yelled, making you roll your eyes. "I called you a weenie, that's rude? You must be deaf when we fight then." You laughed, walking into the kitchen, seeing him standing with the fridge door open, his hand scratching the back of his neck, balancing his weight on one foot as he turned to face you and rolled his eyes. "Oh no, I hear just enough." He laughed, "good thing it's not often right?" He smiled, glancing back at the inside of the fridge. "It's hard to fight when you're not around." You mumbled. The mood died, and the kitchen fell silent as Joon let the fridge door close, rubbing the back of his neck as you leaned against the counter. He walked over, and nudged your feet with his, making you move your legs to the sides, making a gap between them, he stepped in between them, filling the space, he stared down at you, raising his hand, he touched the tips of his fingers to your jaw, making you look up at him. As your eyes met, he leaned down, kissing you softly. You melted under his touch and wrapped your arms around him, letting your hands rest one on his lower back, the other on the nape of his neck as he kissed you softly, as if he was saying goodbye. He put his hands on either side of your face, making sure there was no space between the two of you, he let his fingers tangle your hair as he let his lips make their way down your jaw, and kiss the soft skin of your neck, making goosebumps rise on your arms as you tilted your head back, giving him better access as he began to suck on your sweet spot, where you knew a purple mark would form, and a soft breathless moan passed your lips at the sensation. You squeezed your legs together slowly, his actions turning you on, you pulled him closer, your hands on his neck as you pushed your leg in between his, and rubbed your thigh slowly against the crotch of his pants. You heard him take a sharp intake of breath, before pulling away suddenly, making you pout frustratedly.

"I have plans that involve leaving the house without a boner." He sighed, running his hands through his hair, struggling to not grab you again, he moved away suddenly, and you sighed in defeat. That was his signature move, he had to step away and turn his back to you, otherwise the two of you would be going to the bedroom, not wherever he planned. "We still haven't made the cake." You said hopefully, wanting to keep the two of you home so you could finish what you started, but he seemed determined. "I know. There's one more thing we need to do. Come on." He said, turning to face you again, more collected and less flustered. "Alright." You sighed in defeat, realizing it would be pointless to try and argue with him anymore. "But when we get home..." You didn't finish your sentence, grabbing your jacket off the couch, you saw him smile cheekily and huffed in annoyance, before walking out of your apartment, and waiting for him to follow.

"Walmart." You stated, glancing at your boyfriend as he pulled into the parking lot. "Yes." He replied, smiling as you rolled your eyes playfully, placing your hand on his thigh as he parked the car. Once the car turned off you leaned over, kissing him sweetly as he unbuckled. He kissed back for a moment, before stepping out of the car. You followed nearly a second later, and walked around the car, grabbing his hand, and waiting for him before walking towards the front doors.

"What exactly are we buying?" You asked, glancing around you, the store was only mildly busy, but the both of you wearing sunglasses inside still drew attention. "You'll see." He smiled, turning the cart, and leading the two of you towards the clothing section. "Did you ruin that shirt again?" You asked him, he smiled cheekily and a small laugh passed his lips, "yes, but that's not what we're here for." He replied, you scoffed and shook your head playfully. He had a T-Shirt you had bought him one time, it was a cheap plain black shirt from Walmart, but you had gotten it for him for when he's just relaxing, or needs something to sleep in and doesn't want to wear a fancy outfit, and somehow he's ruined it three times. Each time resulted in you having to buy him another. Whether it was paint staining it, or another boy putting holes in it, you always ended up back in the clothing section buying another. You smiled as you glanced at him, despite the sunglasses, you could see his eyes from the exposed corners, and saw them concentrated as he looked for something specific. It wasn't until a few moments later however, that you realized what it was he was looking for. 

"Onesies." He said excitedly, holding the clothes up as you laughed. "You brought us here for onesies? Oh nae sarang, you're something else." You smiled, taking the onesie from him, and looking it over. "They have two! A cat and a dog!" He said excitedly, showing you them, making you smile wide at his reaction. "Okay, which do you want to be?" You asked, watching him hesitate for a moment. "The dog." He smiled, "alright then, hand me a cat." You laughed, watching him excitedly grab the two items, and lead the two of you to the check out lines, the smile still wide on your face as you watched him bounce with each step. "I love you." You said softly, holding his hand as you two waited in the line. "I love you too." He replied, glancing at you, a smile clear on his face as he leaned down, leaving a soft kiss on your lips, before looking forward as the line began to move forward, allowing the two of you to set the onesies on the conveyor belt, and you laughing softly as Joon grabbed several candies off the little stand, and set them down next to the pajamas. "I thought we were making a cake? Isn't that a lot of sweets?" You asked, making him shrug. "We don't have to eat it all tonight, we still have a couple days." His words made the mood drop again, and you felt a pang in your heart as you let go off his hand so he could pay for the items, and you suddenly weren't in the mood to make a cake anymore.

"I'm sorry." Namjoon's voice was soft as he glanced at you for a moment, before putting his eyes back on the road. He reached over, grabbing your thigh softly as he drove down the road. You two had been silent since the store, when he reminded you of the inevitable tour that was sneaking up on you too fast. "It's okay." You replied, suddenly feeling guilty for making him think he had done something wrong. "I'm just going to miss you. That's all." You told him, taking his hand off your thigh to hold onto it tightly. "I'm going to miss you too ___, I'm sorry we have to be apart." He said softly, his eyes holding an undeniable guilt as you sighed, raising his hand so you could kiss his knuckles softly. "Let's not think about that okay? Let's just go make our cake." You told him, your heart lifting as you saw a smile replace the frown on his lips, and he nodded in agreement.

"We should've just bought the already made boxes of batter, making a cake from scratch is hard." You laughed softly, wiping sweat off of your forehead with your arm, your hands covered in flour as you read a recipe book. "I'll let you take charge next time." He laughed softly, sitting at the island, completely free of any flour, despite you and your clothes both being covered. "You better." You replied, a smile on your lips as you cracked your eggs. He stood up, stepping around the island, he glanced down at the cook book, wrapping his arms around your waist as he watched you mix the ingredients. "At least we didn't put the onesies on yet, otherwise they'd be covered in flour." He smiled, making you roll your eyes before sticking your hand into the bowl of flour and shaking it over his head, making him gasp in shock, and pull away. "You're not allowed to say we unless we are equally covered." You stuck your tongue out at him as he scrunched his nose, and sneezed suddenly. "Bless you." You laughed and watched him wipe the flour off his face and pout. "Aw, I'm sorry baby." You said softly, pulling him over, you kissed his cheek softly as he hugged you, before pouring flour on your head. "Joon!" You shouted, shoving his chest lightly as the two of you laughed. "It got into the cake batter! This cake is going to taste so bad." You laughed softly, making him smile, "I knew that when you added a third egg despite the recipe only calling for two-" he ducked away to dodged the whisk you swung at him. "Out!" You yelled, laughing as you shook your head. "This is a mess." You smiled, sighing as you set the whisk down, and heard the doorbell ring. "Is that the pizza?" You asked, seeing Joon nod, "can you get it? This is ready to go in the oven." You told him. He nodded, grabbing his wallet off the counter and going over to the door as you poured the batter into a cake tray, and slid it into the oven. You had just stood up straight when you felt Joon wrap his arms around you, his lips leaving soft kisses on the exposed skin of your neck. "Cake will be done in about thirty minutes." You told him, turning to face him as he smiled, "sounds fine to me." He replied, brushing your hair out of your face as he leaned forward, kissing your lips softly, before dragging you to the bedroom. "Let's get rid of this flour so we can wear our onesies." He said excitedly, you rolled your eyes as you began to pull your clothes off, careful to not let too much flour get on the carpet, and change into the kitten onesie. You finished changing and saw Joon smiling widely at you, his onesie on, and hood on his head as he held his hand out for you. You took it and let him lead you back to the living room, where you gathered the pizza and your other snacks and drinks and headed to the living room, where he put on a new movie, and the two of you sat on the couch together, your head on his shoulder as the movie started and the two of you began eating.

"So it'll be a month until I have enough time to come back for a visit." Namjoon said softly, you sighed as you looked down at the box of m&m's in your hands. The cake, which turned out as horrible as you two predicted, was left forgotten on the kitchen counter, along with the movie still playing on mute as the two of you talked softly. "How long will you be able to stay?" You asked, twirling the box in your fingers as he sighed. "Four days. Then we go to Europe." He replied, making you nod slowly, your heart shattering at the thought of spending so long without him. "And then Asia..." You trailed off. "We'll be there for two months, you're coming out for two weeks? Right?" He asked the last part making you nod slowly. "And then you come back, and then we do, eventually." He mumbled, causing you to sigh, you knew how much he loved performing, and you loved watching he and the boys grow and create new music, but the touring was hard when the two of you got such little time together. "One of these days I'll become famous too so I don't have to work regular people jobs, and have to go to regular people college alright? And then we won't have to worry about a damn thing, and won't have to spend so long apart." You told him, making him smile at you. "Until then..." He wrapped his arms around you, pulling you onto his lap, you smiled as you put your legs on either side of him, and kissed him softly. "Until then." You mumbled back, a smile on your lips as you ran your hands through his hair, and everything was okay, because you had Namjoon, and he had you.

So I went out today with Momma Heens and we had a fun day!

•Bought some fabric for the Mushroom Fairy Costume Shirt (a beautiful and expensive purple/plummy jacquard)

• Some makeup for the day of ( I haven't worn foundation in years because I hate the way it feels but i'm wearing some of Revlon Colorstay in Dune ((nice)) on half of my face to see how it oxidizes and get a feel for it). Feels nice and light so far actually, i'm very pleasantly surprised. It's supposed to be a dupe for Estee Lauder's Double Wear, and I really liked how that looked on some customers, but I didn't like the price tag, especially since i'm probably just going to wear it for Hallowe'en.

• Bought some more accessories for the fairy outfit! I got some clear rainbow-y plastic beads to look like dew drops and hang from the perimeter of the hat, and some lavender spray paint for the inside where i'll put the gills. Still not sure what the gills are going to be, but I think I may try cutting strips of fabric or lace.

•I also bought some neodymium magnets! I don't think I mentioned, but I molded some little mushrooms out of crayola air dry foam clay, and I want to attach a magnet to each base of the mushroom. I then plan to take some cosplay foam and heat mold it to the curve of my shoulder, so that I can stick it under my shirt. I'm going to make a magnetic base for the mushrooms to stick to so it looks like they're growing on my shoulder! I'm really excited to see how that looks, and I may recreate my moss scarf for this. It will be a very small scarf because I simply do not have any more of the other yarn I used with my Moss Cowl. For those still interested in that, I am still hunting for a suitable second yarn :(

• Dropped off the ridiculous blue lawn chair that apparently cost me $200 .----.

• Bought another chair! I ended up checking out what Staples had to offer. I wanted to get one of the gaming chairs when I walked in but thought, "since I'm here... Might as well try all of them" and spent the better part of an hour trying out every chair they had that met my requirements of Perfect Office Chair, much to the chagrin of my poor mother who: 1) did not want to spend that much time in Staples and 2) loathed the idea of anything other than an "adorable and chic" chair in her HER home office as opposed to what I ended up getting, which was:

This very much un-chic and un-adorable gaming chair that looks like it would eat the chair my mother liked. We've compromised that though I'll be getting this chair, we (both of us being amateur seamstresses) will find a much better fabric to cover it with. I have to admit that I also don't love how brusco it is. I would have liked a pink version better. Maybe I can find some hello kitty x Joanns fabric or something to cover it in. I think that would be very cute... However, I think mom would probably prefer something sage green with a small floral pattern. Or something. I will fight for a Little Twin Stars fabric.

And that was my very busy Saturday!
