Promise Me You Won’t Cry Anymore
Zayne x Reader
Tumblr media
word count: 800
summary: just a lil blurb about how Zayne reacts to accidentally making you cry
tags: not proof read!!, hurt/comfort, fluff, mentions of medicine. just zayne being a worried doctor really
authors note: hello again guys! ੭ ᐕ)੭*⁾⁾ I fully wrote this on a whim rn in like 10 minutes so pls take that into account lolol. (also it’s another hurt/comfort lolol it’s my fav tag and i don’t have any ideas for anything else) i also wanted this to be like a rlly short blurb but i think im genuinely unable to write anything that isn’t like around 1k words (´;ω;`) i don’t really have anything else to say besides i hope i get motivation to write one of the million fic ideas i have saved in my notes soon.
as always hope you enjoy!! ✧*。٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و✧*。
Tumblr media
Zayne is a strong man. Emotionally strong that is. The countless years he spent both studying and working in the medical field gave him thick skin and it made it difficult for things to truly get to him. It takes a lot for something to hit him in the heart and truly bring him down.
However, the one thing he absolutely can’t stand is you crying. Something about it he doesn’t truly know what. Something about the way your eyes tilt downwards with your head soon following, the small tremble of your lips he knows you’re fighting to keep still, the tear-glazed distant look in your eyes that just shows how hard you’re fighting back tears, nothing breaks his heart more.
Zayne knows, he knows he can be oh so overbearing when it comes to your health and safety, but god he can’t help it. Nothing worries him more than your, in his opinion fragile, wellbeing. Everyday on his drive to the hospital he prays to whatever god is out there that will listen to him that he won’t see you during his shift, at least not you being wheeled in through the back doors, completely unconscious on a gurney. He can’t even handle the thought of it.
It leads to his constant nagging over you. His constant worry. His constant lectures and scoldings whenever you even slightly overlook your health.
Which led to here. Another conversation that began as an overbearing reminder to take your medicine, only for Zayne to quickly discover you haven’t been taking recently. You’ve already had a tiring and stressful day and didn’t have any energy to fight back at him. So instead, you just stood there in front of him. Only looking at him as he continued his scolding on how important it was to take your medicine, why you need it, and never forgetting to remind you of just how fragile you truly are.
All you could do was look back at him, and just take everything he had to say without a fight. Not like you had the energy to speak anyways. To be honest, you didn’t even have the energy to think, or to even listen to him in that matter. All you really heard is just his upset voice, saying what?You’re not really sure, but his tone was enough to make you feel inferior.
Zayne didn’t notice. He honestly couldn’t. He was too caught up in his worries and imagination of what could possibly happen to you to be able to properly see you, but in the middle of his rant he did. He saw the look on your face that absolutely breaks his heart and makes him want to fall to his knees. He saw your head hung low, you fighting your trembling bottom lip, your downcast, distant eyes, that had tears in the brink of flowing through your pretty eyelashes and falling onto those darling cheeks he loves; especially when he sees them rise and round out whenever you smile.
And when he sees it, he stops. Instantly.
There is a quick moment of silence where he hesitates. Where he hears your uneven, haggard breathing and mentally scolds himself, grimacing at his actions.
He takes a few steps over to you and leans down to hold your face in his hands. Lifting it up so he can see you properly, however your eyes don’t follow and remain locked onto your fuzzy-socked feet. His gentle hold, contrasting his previous tone made it so difficult to keep it together. Just as he noticed a tear welling up to fall from your eyes he gently kisses it away before it could reach any further than the corner of your eye.
He softly rubs the apple of your cheek trying to coax you to bring your eyes up to him.
“Look at me… Please?” Zayne says ever so gently.
You knew if you did you wouldn’t be able to hold back your tears anymore, but the soft rub of his thumb brings your eyes up to look back at him. The moment you do, his eyes soften in guilt and regret, a slight frown forming on his lips when he sees your eyes welling up with more tears.
He slightly stands up, just enough to place a soft, delicate kiss on your forehead as he whispers against it.
“I’m sorry.”
Then you can’t hold it anymore. A soft gasp for air leaves your lips as tears begin to flow from your eyes. Zayne slowly pulls you into his chest, holding your head and running his fingers up and down your back in an effort to comfort you. In an effort to get you to forgive him. In an effort to get you to stop.
Guilt spreads throughout his whole body as he listens to your sobs and feels your tears wetting his shirt. He whispers apologies to you, offering soft kisses on the top of your head in between each one.
He’ll make it up to you. He doesn’t know exactly how yet, but he will. He’ll do anything. Whatever it takes to stop the flow of tears and broken sobs. Whatever it takes to see those darling, rosy cheeks rise up with the sweetest, brightest smile he’s ever seen. He’d do it in a heartbeat; because there is nothing, nothing Dr. Zayne can’t stand more than you crying.

-
"i think im going to confess to caleb."
zayne felt his world stop when you'd spoken those words to him oh-so casually, seated on the couch of his house as you had many times before, sipping on a cup of tea he'd brewed for you to chase away the cold of the outdoors.
he blinks once, staring down at you for a moment. your gaze was trained on the tea in the mug, watching the steam rise and breathing in the fragrant scent, allowing it to fill your senses in an attempt to calm your beating heart.
zayne takes a seat on the left-most side of the sofa, leaving a middle cushion space between you both, setting his own mug of tea down on the nearby coffee table beside a plate of cookies he'd grabbed for the both of you to snack on.
despite the storm of thoughts brewing in his mind, his expression remains neutral.
"i see."
a simple answer, the only one that he can conjure up in the moment.
you peek up at him trying to catch any hint of his feelings in those captivating eyes of his.
"what... do you think?"
"should i be the one to have an opinion on this?"
"well, do you think he'll... reciprocate?"
"is that not the reason you're confessing in the first place?"
you let out a frustrated groan. an amused grin ghosts the corners of zayne's lips.
"zayyyne, don't tease me right now, i'm serious!"
he resists the urge to laugh at the cute expression on your face. you really never changed.
"well, is there something that pushed you to make the decision like this?"
sheepish, you look back down at the tea in your hands, feeling the warmth seep through your hands, kicking your feet back and forth beneath you, lightly hitting the soft material beneath you.
"i just thought... its been long enough, you know?"
he tilts his head at a slight angle, reaching for a cookie on the small plate and taking a bite, seemingly losing himself in thought.
sure, he'd noticed. its not something that he particularly found to be a secret, even without you directly telling him of your attraction to the kind, doting boy you'd grown up with.
but he wasn't sure that you'd ever act on it.
thanks to that, he thought he'd had more than enough time to will himself to be honest with you...
but today, it seems that time had run out.
"have you thought about the method? even if its something one could say at any time, the execution is what you're also worried about, no? not to mention the timing."
given his logical side, you had trouble deciding whether opening up to zayne really was the best option (that, and your lingering feelings for him welling deep within you heart), but listening to his words, you remember why no one else could help as much as him in the first place.
"wow zayne, have you confessed to someone or something? is this something i dont know about?"
he scoffs, eyes lingering on your for a moment before they shift elsewhere in the room.
"hardly. it just seems like the most logical things one might be concerned with in this sort of situation. not to mention," he leans forward, reaching for another cookie.
"i know you."
your heart jumps in your chest.
you watch the doctor before you casually consume another sweet cookie, and when he looks over again, you hastily shift your gaze, taking another sip of the tea in your hands.
"right," you murmur once you let the liquid rush down your throat.
"i'm not sure how much assistance i can offer you, but granted thats what you're asking..."
"i'll pay you in one, no, two boxes of macarons! and.. the next time we go to that cafe, it'll be my treat!"
you're suddenly full of energy again, eyes wide and pleading as you negotiate with zayne, his slightly narrowed eyes staring back.
how could he ever deny you anything when you ask like that?
he huffs out a breath through his nose, reaching for the teacup.
"i'll see what i can do."
he watches you over the rim of the cup as you cheer, expression bright as you finally reach over and shove one of the cookies into your own mouth in triumph, a couple of crumbs sticking to the edges of your lips.
you don't notice the pointed stare, and he's grateful you seem distracted enough to not have caught onto the slightly-off tone of his voice or the sight of his thoughts running rampant through his brain.
the price of your happiness this time tasted bitter on his tongue, no matter how many sweet cookies he tried ridding it with.
-
zayne's thoughts lingered on that conversation as he types on his computer in his office the following day.
it was silly, wasn't it? thinking so much about this sort of thing.
it didn't seem to be in zayne's character, but really, he found these new sides of himself thanks to you.
it always led back to you.
he thought about you, the way you were never afraid to speak and tease him like you would anyone else, taking the time to get acquainted with him back then despite how reserved he was.
and yet...
he thought about how he was a stark contrast to the pilot of your affections, caleb.
even back then, zayne didn't doubt caleb's fondness for you.
he didn't think you really needed his help if you wanted to confess to him that badly. but he didn't tell you that.
instead, he used this as an excuse to spend what time he thought he had left with you before it would inevitably be taken up by the love from your childhood.
-
you felt... conflicted.
was this really what you wanted, or only what you thought you wanted?
for as long as you could remember, you had been taken with zayne.
something about the stark contrast to your familiar companion caleb intrigued you, and you quickly formed a friendship with him, whether he wanted to or not.
thinking back, you wonder if you actually forced it on him.
he never really denied you of what you wished to do, always letting you take the lead and allowing you entry into his life after you had barged in through the shut door.
maybe... there was never a chance for you.
you heave out a long sigh, flipping another page of the scrapbook filled with pictures of the three of you.
your eyes trail over a picture of you, caleb and zayne together. it was a bright day when you all played together, and you don't really remember who it was that took the picture. you're the only one not looking at the camera, gaze trained elsewhere while caleb is beaming a radiant closed-eyed smile and zayne his usual reserved expression, eyes wide under his large glasses.
your eyes linger on the young zayne for awhile, subconsciously smiling to yourself. he actually was quite camera shy, but never turned down taking a picture with you.
(you didn't know it, but he wanted to immortalize those memories, and it was something that he often looked back on in the time you two had lost contact).
your eyes then trail over to the young caleb, your gege that you had grown up with, the one who probably knew you better than anyone else in the world.
he was bright, thoughtful, and though he always teased you, you knew it came from a place of care and affection for you.
the thought of confessing to him made you nervous, but not in the same way you felt when you'd think about the same scenario happening with zayne.
so, were you really going to go through with this? or were you just trying to convince yourself that you had to get over yourself when it came to zayne?
you close the memory book, face planting into the pillows of your bed with a groan.
what a dream it would be if zayne li could ever think of you as something other than a childhood nuisance, you thought.
-
the more you prepared, the less you wanted to go through with it.
sure, caleb was everything anyone could want, not to mention attractive to anyone that took one glance at him, but could you really see yourself with him? after fantasizing about what it'd like to be by zayne's side, pulled into his embrace, graced by his affections?
despite this, you still spent the time with zayne, because how could you ever pass up an opportunity with him, as busy as he was?
you learned just how romantic the doctor could be, and you were filled with both giddiness and feelings of envy at the thought of someone else seeing this side of him for real.
tonight was the third "date" (as you liked to imagine them in your head, knowing full-well you were the only one who thought as such) he'd taken you on— a sort of "practice," as he called it— while telling you about what night dates might entail. the other two he had taken you on were during the morning and noon, his objective being that of showing you the different moods the date can create at certain times of the day.
it wasn't something you'd ever considered, but you considered yourself lucky being taken out to breakfast then the library for the first date, and having a picnic lunch and taking a stroll together for the second.
it was like getting a taste of something you knew would never be yours. the flavor of a dessert that wasn't meant for you.
it was bittersweet.
tonight, zayne had picked you up after telling you to dress nicely since he was taking you out to dinner, having made reservations at a fairly nice spot in the city. after scouring your wardrobe, you hoped the simple satin figure-hugging slip dress with matching heels and pretty accessories would do, not knowing how fancy the restaurant he was taking you to really was.
he'd opened the passenger door for you when you exited your apartment, something that he'd done the past two times as well, and allowed himself to get a good look at your outfit, feeling his ears burn at seeing you in such unfamiliar attire.
you looked beautiful.
when he made his way back into the drivers seat, he reached back to pluck a hidden rose from the backseat, offering it to you.
"for you," he whispered, watching you stare in awe for a moment before you took it.
no one had given you any flowers before. you felt butterflies.
"thank you..." you sighed, finger tracing the dainty petals.
"while simple, flowers can be a rather thoughtful gift to give to someone. often, they can relay messages without words, but it can also be seen solely for aesthetic value if the recipient isn't familiar with the language of flowers."
your heart sank.
right. this wasn't for real.
you hummed in acknowledgement, eyes trained on the flower to refrain from looking too longingly at the handsome doctor next to you as he began driving you both to your destination.
"by the way..." his steady voice filled the silence that had enveloped you, the sound invading your ears. you looked up, curious.
"you look lovely tonight."
he offered a small smile, eyes full of a certain fondness that you couldn't really convey from his gaze trained forward, voice soft yet full of raw honesty.
momentarily shocked, you quickly regain your bearings.
"take a look at yourself, doctor."
he grinned, amused.
"it's only natural to want to dress well when taking a beautiful lady out for the evening."
he hopes you know he means every word.
even if this is under the guise of helping you, he so carefully planned out these dates with your enjoyment in mind, having wanted nothing more than to indulge you in a more romantic atmosphere before losing you forever.
but you didn't need to know that.
when you didn't respond with another quip, he glanced over to you, catching sight of your sheepish expression.
"sure..." you mumbled, looking down at your lap.
the radio filled the silence, and you were only grateful for another sound to focus on besides your rapidly beating heart.
. . .
the longer the evening stretched, the harder it was for zayne to keep his composure.
dinner went smoothly. he made several points about this type of date, but noticed you asked far less questions than the past two times he'd taken you out.
once the "lesson talk" ceased, conversation and the usual teasing flowed easily between the two of you.
even with the various other guests in the dining room, its like his world was only enveloped by you.
he only ever saw you.
he took a sip of his drink, allowing himself to sink into the enjoyment of the evening for as long as he was allowed.
. . .
at some point, you decided that tonight was the night for a confession.
just... not in the way that you may have intended.
you think, after going on these "dates" with zayne, spending time together that was much more intimate than before did worse things for your long-lasting feelings, and if you were going to do anything about them, it had to be tonight.
even if he only ever saw you as a childhood companion. this might be the only way to finally, truly move on.
the night was still young by the time dinner was finished, and upon zayne's suggestion, you both decided to take a stroll around the area. it wasn't too crowded and was fairly lit up, and the weather was nice enough to take your time to simply sightsee a little.
how funny. the atmosphere was what one might call perfect for this.
conversation flows again like normal, and when a comfortable silence envelops the space, you encourage yourself to go through with it.
its now or never...!
you take a deep breath before starting.
"zayne?"
he hums.
"what happens if... my confession is rejected?"
he spares you a fleeting glance before looking straight back ahead.
"i wouldn't worry about that."
you can't help the pout that adorns your face at such a response.
"its always a possibility, isn't it?" you quip.
"i doubt it, in this such case."
his response is muttered, but you still catch it.
"well, what if he's weirded out, or— or what if he's never thought of me that way? what if i've only ever just been that 'childhood-companion-turned-nuisance because of the way i forced him into a friendship?"
your voice is quiet when you let the last admission slip from your lips.
"what if... he can't fathom the idea of loving me back because of how he sees me?"
you think you've said too much, that its clear you're no longer talking about caleb.
you both stop walking. the momentary silence feels deafening.
"is that what you think?"
his voice is hushed, but its still loud enough for your ears only. your mind is screaming at you.
its now or never—!
"zayne, i—"
he turns to you, looking straight into your eyes.
"i've loved you ever since we were children, even when i didn't quite comprehend the idea of what romantic love was yet. i have only ever had eyes for you, you're always on my mind, and i find myself looking forward to the time we spend together."
your eyes are wide as you stare up at him, heart pounding harder with every word that spills from the handsome doctor's lips.
"i know my timing isn't the best, but even i was unsure of the nature of our relationship. but..." his hand lifts yours towards his lips, and you feel a soft warmth graze the back of your palm.
"contrary to your belief, i don't think he could fathom the idea of not loving you."
when he finishes his confession, you think your heart might beat right out of your chest.
"forgive me," he murmurs, releasing your hands and taking a step back. you already miss his warmth, body tingling at the instinct to reach out and pull him close once more.
when silence envelops you both again, he presumes he won't get his answer tonight.
"its quite late. we should head back—"
before he can turn on his heel, you close the distance, hands latching on to one of his.
"zayne!"
startled, he looks down at you, face expressing pure surprise. but he doesn't push you away.
"i..." you breathe out a laugh, looking up at him as you feel tears well up in your eyes.
"i thought... you never felt the same."
zayne remains quiet, but his eyes hold shock. you squeeze his hand tighter, smiling.
"i always thought... you weren't interested in me, didn't see me that way. all these years, i had willed myself to forget about you, to bury my feelings. that's where caleb came in, but..."
a tear rolls down your cheek.
"they never left. i.... i've always loved you, too."
zayne takes in every word, and wonders for a moment if he might be dreaming.
when more tears fall and you release his hand to wipe them away, his moves up to cup your face, willing your gaze towards him.
"do you mean it?"
its a whisper in the wind, for your ears only.
"yes," you breathe, one hand holding his over your cheek, pressing yourself closer into his hold.
he huffs out a laugh, amusement dancing in his eyes.
"it seems neither of us are quite smart in this area, are we?"
you sniffle before laughing with him. he swipes away another stray tear with his thumb.
"so, your plan all along was to make me jealous enough to confess?"
you gasp, turning your face away from him.
"no way! i stopped trying that tactic a long time ago when i realized it didn't work."
the pout on your face is palpable. he grips your chin between two fingers, turning your face back to face him properly.
"what if i told you... it did work, its just that a certain someone wasn't the most observant?"
your eyes fill with surprise again.
"really?!"
"really."
you huff out a breath of frustration.
"wow, this is— wow."
he smiles, reaching for your hand and allowing you to make the move in interlacing your fingers together. you do so eagerly.
"come on, lets head to that cafe, it should still be open. i was promised a treat, after all."
you let out a playful scoff, looking up at the amused doctor.
"that was if you helped me to confess!"
"is that not what that was?"
you make an unamused sound in the back of your throat, and zayne only laughs.
"that sound is like the one the cat at your apartment makes when it hasn't had enough snacks."
"oh, hush," you urge, but only grip onto his hand tighter, almost as if to prove to yourself that this was indeed real.
a comfortable silence fills the space when zayne's steps slow. you look up at him, and notice him staring up at the sky.
"the moon looks beautiful tonight."
you look up in search of it to confirm his words, not noticing his gaze having shifted towards you by then.
"yeah," you smile, already knowing the underlying message woven into his words.
"so beautiful."
-
epilogue
"another thing."
your eyes flit up from your dessert to zayne's face, his eyes trained on the cake before him, dragging a piece with his fork, the sponge secure on the spikes.
"how could you ever think i considered you a nuisance?"
your eyes widen. right, you did admit that earlier...
you laugh sheepishly, poking at your pastry with your own fork.
"haha, well, when i thought back to it, it seemed like i was the one that forced my friendship upon you."
zayne tilts his head slightly, expression quizzical. you continue.
"i... was always the one dragging you around to play with caleb and i. even now, i guess it felt like you went along with what i wanted out of... obligation or pity or something."
zayne frowns at this, deepening at the edges when you finish this off with a laugh.
you peek up at him when he's been quiet for a touch too long.
"how odd."
you raise a brow at him.
you miss his hand raising up to pinch your cheek. you let out a small surprised yelp, swatting at his hand.
"hey—!"
"you should know by now that i don't do things i don't wish to, nor have i ever been known to have many friends."
he scoops up another piece of cake with his fork.
"so, if someone always went along with you instead of pushing you away, it must mean they wanted to spend time with you, maybe even found amusement in the way that someone always went out of their way to play and spend time with that person, yes?"
he shoves the cake into his mouth as he finishes. you're left staring dumbly at him, swatting movements halting as you process his words.
he squishes the flesh softly between his fingers, swallowing the sweet dessert.
"don't ever refer to yourself as a nuisance again. you're anything but, and i'll prove it to you time and time again if i must"
he releases your cheek, retracting his hand.
"if i didn't make it clear earlier, i always cherished you the most."
your heart warms, and you reflect the smile that peeks through zayne's lips.
"i bet i cherished you more," you tease, picking up a piece of your dessert with your fork.
"nonsense," zayne states almost dramatically, eyes narrowing at you playfully.
you laugh joyfuly.
what a dream it was that zayne li had always reciprocated the feelings that you felt for him all these years, you thought.
-
a/n: this is my apology for the last zayne fic that i did not like n almost deleted but left up bc someone liked it. will slowly work on the rest of the event fics ,fear not (thought ab extending it through the month/to white day? undecided :x) have this in the meantime bc i... like this zayne fic the most

hellooo!! can u pls write for steve harrington?? i'm thinking where he got with reader as a rebound for nancy but then he realizes its much more than that but by the time he does you already realized and left like an angsty thing
warnings: i think none? but please tell me if there are.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
you've always known steve harrington, ever since you were a kid. steve 'the hair' harrington, king of hawkins, ladies man--as everyone thought. to you though, he was just steve, the neighbor next door.
being neighbors with steve wasn't always easy, or quiet even. from the constant parties to the endless nights with every woman in hawkins. you'd be a lucky if you got a good nights sleep for once. your mom didn't really hear it much, not like she was ever home to.
if there was one thing you had in common with steve, it was the lack of life in your house. only for steve, he was always replacing it with having someone over whenever he possibly can, while you just stayed home alone.
not like you were never invited, it was kind of a given since you'd know about it anyway, might as well be invited. but you never came. not like it mattered. but after some time, the parties...stopped. everything became calm, and steve was like...not a douchebag anymore. everyone said it was cause of nancy wheeler, the princess. she was perfect. not a single flaw to her
you'd always see her come around, she was pretty. you couldn't lie. but damn did something about her rub you the wrong way. it was always like this, up until you knew about the big breakup
you were home as usual, and had taken your walkman to go walk at night like you usually did, but when you left your house, you saw steve on your porch, sitting silently. it didn't even seem like he was coming to talk or something, he just sat there for no reason.
"i think you got it mixed up" you spoke up, going down a few steps to where he was sitting, "your house is next door, not here" you say with furrowed eyebrows. but he didn't even look at you, he was just sat there.
"you probably already heard." he says and just keeps looking ahead, "nancy left me"
you in fact did not hear. "oh." was all that came out of you, you sigh and just sit beside him, placing the walkman beside you. "thats...weird. why? i thought you two were happy" you say and he just scoffs
"bullshit, apparently. all of it. should've known...im an idiot. girl like her, as if that would last" he mutters, more to himself than you
"hey, what?" you say, shaking your head quickly, "that's so wrong, steve. like--very wrong. you're a great guy, steve. i mean like...now--you became a great guy. and if she didn't see that and thought it's all bullshit then she's not worth it" you say, and he--finally looks at you.
"you really think so?" he asks, and you hesitate for a moment, before nodding.
"yeah, of course steve" you say, it was quiet for a while, the two of you just looking around, up until you got up and went back inside. he sighs to himself, thinking you left, until you came back with a pair of headphones. you sat back down beside him and grabbed the walkman again, plugging in a second pair of headphones, you hand him it.
he looks at you, hesitating for a moment before taking it, the two of you sat there quietly just listening to music. it was the very first time you two had even had a proper conversation--or even interaction together ever since you were kids.
ever since then, you two were always stopping by each others houses--even driving home or to school since you were both heading the same way. you got close quickly, and as much as you didnt expect it, you genuinely really liked it
you knew he changed, but you thought it was just a look. but he actually did, he was funny, really considerate and nice. you found yourself...actually feeling things for him. you always brushed it off, but to your luck, steve was a very expressive person, so he made sure to let you know he liked you back
it was all great, you didn't feel so lonely anymore. and you two were just...such a good pair. some would say even better than nancy. and you liked to think so too, until one day, you were heading to the basketball court to go see your boyfriend as usual. until you overheard tommy h and a few other guys talking to themselves, steve must've been in the locker room or something.
"how the hell are harrington and that girl together, i mean i don't get it--he and miss perfect break up, and he's already with the next girl? i don't buy it." tommy says, and one of them chimes in
"my girl says they love each other, it's total bull. we all know the real reason harrington's with her, she's a rebound. i mean--how do you get over a girl like nancy? you got a have at least a few replacements before finally moving on"
what? replacements? no--that's not right. you're sure steve likes you, genuinely likes you...right? it's not true, he's not that kind of guy. he wouldn't be using you like that, right?
you shake your head and quickly storm off, tears brewing in your eyes. you've been alone for so long, maybe you just didn't notice how he was using you? maybe you just jumped at the first chance to be with someone, so desperate?
that same day, steve was knocking and knocking on your door, when you didn't answer, he sighed and sat on the porch. for hours. waiting and waiting.
"baby i know something's wrong...please talk to me. don't...don't do this." he says as he knocks on your door one more time. he hears footsteps coming from the road, he quickly steps down the porch and rushes to the footsteps, hoping it was you.
he slows down as he sees nancy there. he furrows his eyebrows. what the hell was she doing here?
"what do you want?" he says and she just looks at him
"steve let's talk..." she says and he quickly shakes his head
"no...no absolutely not. i don't wanna have anything to do with you, don't you understand that nancy?" he says, while he's talking, you were opening the front door since you thought it's been too long.
to his luck, you were just behind him when he was talking to nancy.
"fine, fine you're right okay? i did get with her as a rebound...to--to forget you. is that what you wanted to hear?" he says and everything else quiets down in your head, they were right. they were all right. he doesn't like you, love you. he never did. how could he? you slowly walk away, your eyes distant and your face paling. how could you be so stupid to think something could ever work out for you?
but while you were lost in your own head, steve was still talking to nancy.
"but it's not like that anymore. don't you get that? i don't love you anymore, i don't even want to see your face. i wake up in the morning and the first thing i want to do is see her, she's so much better than you could ever be. i don't need you anymore, alright? you have to go nancy" he says and shakes his head, walking back to your front door, completely ignoring nancy's pleading for him to hear her out
"baby? you in there? please come out and talk to me" he sighs as he knocks on your door, but you were already gone. you had gone through the backdoor, he was gonna use you to forget some girl? you'll do worse. you were already on your way to the trailer park, tears in your eyes. you wanted to hurt him just like he hurt you, and what other way to do that other than be with the guy he hates more than anything?
a/n: hey guys i think this mightve been my worst work yet but ummm im posting it anyway, also i wanted to make it more sad but then it kind of turned into a revenge thing so idk, hope u enjoy thoo! <333

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Love
noun
A deep feeling of adoration and affection. Complex and utterly fucked.
God- It wasn’t supposed to make this turn, literally and figuratively. It was supposed to be a simple scout… in a foreign area. Red Flag. It was quiet, Green Flag? No infected, right? Fuck no. A major fucking fuck of fuckest nos. Open street, Green Flag, Houses… Red Green Flag? It all happened way too fast. One minute you and Ellie were walking, chatting quietly, still alert, but not as sharp as you both should be.
First came one, round an abandoned truck. Then came another… then another… that alerted another. Then before you know it, A WHOLE DAMN LOT OF THEM. Two people against what felt like hundreds, constant moving, running, dodging, shooting, stabbing.
A means for survival, you had Ellie’s back, Ellie had yours. Well for the most part… Ellie split from you just for a second? A minute…? Three or seven. It was a frenzy, her mind was running miles. Yours also in a panic until then last infected.
She had an arm around you as support, holding your waist with the other. Both covered in grime and blood, that was hopefully not your own. With an effort you both managed to huddle inside a safe house, deemed that way by Ellie’s check through. Green Flag. It's okay, everything was fine.
Until it wasn’t… that’s when Ellie noticed the copious amount of blood near your calf, running down your to your ankle like a fucking river, splitting into streams. Red Flag. Ellie damn near felt her knees buckle, immediately drawing your attention to where she blankly stared. You assured her it was nothing, before turning your leg fully to reveal the ripped fabric of your jeans… a few scratches littering under the rip… then a bite. No that was fucking obvious…
“Oh…” was all you could muster out, before glancing back at Ellie. She stood there, frightened as you tried to console the situation. She was gonna puke.
That was almost a week ago. Maybe a week. Ellie couldn't be certain… a few days definitely. You told her you weren’t going to let her see your certain demise. You both knew what was meant to happen. That was days ago, She didn’t let you. She said… she’d do it, so you two can savor each moment left. Red Flag.
‘Ellie, pull the damn trigger’, is what she’d tell herself.
She wouldn’t… not now… not on you.
So here we are, Ellie sitting outside the house you ultimately turned in, because she couldn’t do it. Reminds her of that couple that ran from Jackson some time ago. She understood… well related.
Life was a cruel mistress. The amount of times she held the pistol to you, your cordyceps infected brain not caring, body working on instinct. She knew you were gone… but the moans and cries felt a little too human each time.
She grabbed her journal, scribbling in the worn book, scratching your face… a face that made her feel more sane… especially after Santa Barbara. Or maybe she never was. She felt the same as she did on that goddamned beach.
Broken down, lost without him, or her... Or you. Alone again. No one. Just her mind. Cruel.
Did you feel alone in that head of yours too? Was sitting prisoner in your own body as your last bits of sanity where taken from you by a fucking fungus petrifying? Did Ellie being the last thing you could grasp mentality give you peace… or sadness?
It didn’t bring her peace thinking about it. She found it hard to even think about you without the fear in your eyes, a primal fear that sinks deep into your bones. You unknowingly clawed her down with you once you turned, or maybe it was the other way round. She knew it was fucked up, keeping you here… she knew it was wrong. It was selfish. You aren’t even you anymore, yet she still holds onto the thought of you. It's twisted. It’s sick… it’s the second time this has happened. One time too many. Melancholic.
She tossed the journal down next to her; thinking was too much. She couldn’t, her hands shook, her body trembled. In, out. Inhale, exhale, she reminded herself.
Standing, Ellie looked at the house behind her. Quiet… Red Flag. She wanted to hug you, play ignorant to the fact you got bitten…
She went inside, your reaction is always immediate and hostile. Could there be guilt lying somewhere in your brain…? Maybe she was personifying you too much, you weren’t human anymore. She watched you attempt and attempt to reach her, bound by some old rope she found in the garage of this stupid house. Inhale, Exhale. She grabbed her handgun, trying to tune out your screams and snarls, struggling.
She adored you, she tried to hold on to what she had of you… she couldn’t. Red Flag. All she could grasp is your last words, before the day your mind wasn’t yours. The sobbing, and the denial.
“Ellie, you know meeting you was amazing…
She steadied her hand.
…I wish we could have had more time together, you’re so so special to me…
Ellie aimed towards… the runner? you.
… don’t worry too much, and please don’t lose yourself…
Ellie fired ???
… I Love You, Ellie.”
She slung her backpack on her shoulders, walking outside. Her movements— mechanical. Ellie crumpled, she sobbed. Alone, scared, tired. Her own type of infection clawed through her body. One that didn’t kill her, not physically. Dissociated… it all went too fast, yet too slow, like trudging through tar.
Ellie took a deep breath, shaken up and ragged.
“I Love You Too.”

Like ‘Em Weird - Steven Grant x reader
Tumblr media
Warnings: bri’ish reader, non explicit sex, snogging tf out of Steven, general embarrassment, slight jerk Marc
Words: 4k
Rating: M
Summary: A fast moving relationship halts abruptly when the cute guy you met at a cafe wakes up a completely different person.
or
How you helped Steven figure out his body has multiple tenets, and that he doesn’t mind sharing it it’s you
I haven’t actually finished Moon Knight, so any inconsistencies or straight up false stuff is on me. Other guy isn’t here because I haven’t met him yet
Whipping up 1-5k oneshots while I can't get even ten in on my wip is such a me thing it's not even laughable anymore
Also! I have read a lot about DID and talked with friends who have it, and the portrayal of the reader does not represent kind or correct treatment of people with such issues at all, just wanted to be clear that I as the author know that and this isn’t any sort of handbook
AO3 link
“You gonna talk to me or just keep staring?” 
Steven blinks, immediately feeling his hands and cheeks go hot. 
“I’m sorry, I didn’t realize I was staring–!” He quiets as you stand and drag your metal chair the few feet across the cafe patio to his table, plopping into it. 
“Hi.” He murmurs, eyes dropping to his lap as he wrings his hands. 
”Hey,” You reach your hand over the table, flashing a smile, introducing yourself. 
“Steven Grant.” He shakes it, adjusting in his seat.
“No worries, by the way. I never know how to start a conversation either.” 
“I am so sorry, really, I hadn’t noticed. I uh, I don’t do that, I swear, I was just sort of spaced out.” He sucks in a breath and lets it out slowly, running a hand through his hair to get it off his face. “I don’t usually see a lot of pretty girls around, not ones that I find pretty– well, I mean there’re plenty of pretty girls, just not as– you just…” he swallows, wishing he could sink far enough into his chair to disappear from the face of the Earth. 
“God I wish I could start over.” He says. 
“This conversation, or since you started staring?” 
“My life at this point.”
“Take as long as you need.” You grin. 
“My name’s Steven, I work in a gift shop.” 
“At the museum?” 
“Yeah,” he nods, sitting up straighter. 
“I knew it, I’ve seen you before! I love that place.” 
“Ah! Me too! It’s ahm, probably about my favorite place in the world.” 
He goes off about something having to do with history, half of which you don’t quite follow, but you listen anyway. 
He tells you about several different exhibits from the museum he works at, stuff that isn’t on the little plaques, going on tangents here and there about the origins of popular misconceptions. 
“…and that’s just off the top of my head; numerous examples of it.” He takes a sip of his coffee, suddenly seeming to realize something. 
“Shit. Im sorry, I’ve been talking entirely too much. You want to tell me about you?” 
“No, it’s cool, I get it.” You laugh. “You read a lot.” 
“Oh loads, anything that interests me, I love books.” 
“Music's my thing.” You say. 
“Oh, do you play?” 
“Nah, I collect. CDs mostly, vinyl sometimes.” You finish your drink, setting your cup aside. 
“I’d love to get into it, but I should be going. Do you wanna get dinner sometime?” You ask. 
“Yeah,” he nods and you pull out your phone, handing it to him to put his number in.
“I’m vegan, but anywhere you like is fine though. Saturday work?” He says. 
“Saturday’s brilliant.” You click your phone closed when he turns it back to you, tucking it back in your pocket. 
“Brilliant.” 
“I’ll call you with the place. See ya then.” 
“See ya.” 
Saturday rolls around, and you get off the bus to a lovely little Indian place with a bounce in your step. 
You had double checked thy had plenty of vegan options, spending the last few days trying and failing not to text Steven every half hour. 
“Sorry! I got put on inventory again.” Steven huff as he bounds up to you, making you feel a little silly as he’s all dressed up. 
“You’re right on time actually. I just came early.” 
“Oh, thank goodness.” He says, exhaling heavily and straightening his back. 
He holds up a “Um, these are for you.” 
“Oh my God.” You smile, taking them from him and turning them over. 
“I hate flowers, but that has got to be about the sweetest thing anyone has ever done for me.” 
“Sorry, I’ll uh, I’ll remember that.” 
“Nothing to be sorry about, I appreciate it. Shall we?” You gesture to the restaurant door. 
“Oh– Of course,” Steven sidesteps to hold open the door for you, and you both head in. 
Seated with your food on the way, you look your date up and down expectantly, to which he sets his drink down and explains. 
“I am keeping my mouth sealed unless spoken to. Even if it means I’m staring.” He jokes at the end with a smirk. 
“Sure you’re going to be able to stick to that?” You tease, taking a long sip from your mango lassi. 
“Sure am. Talk to me.” 
So you do. 
You tell him all about where your from, your favorite band, the kinds of movies and shows you like, and he chimes in with his own, careful not to dominate the conversation with his preferred topics, which as much as you love the sound of his voice, you’re grateful for. 
“You know there’s something special about you maybe.” He says when you’re about finished with your meal. “I feel like I just click with you. Is that weird?” 
“No, it’s not weird.” You shake your head, meeting his eyes. “That’s not weird at all.” 
You walk with him down the street, hands in your pockets from the slight chill, but keeping close enough your arms are almost touching. 
It’s quiet, and it’s a comfortable quiet, but you can’t help but feel nagged at by a lack of something. 
You come to an intersection, and Steven turns to you. 
“Well, thank you, for going out with me.” You take him in, framed in the streetlight, messy hair and nice clothes, pretty eyes catching the light. 
“I hope you have a great rest of your night–” 
You push him against the brick wall of the building closest and catch his lips in a kiss, startling him as his hands hover over your shoulders, then your arms, before finding your back and waist, pulling you close. 
He kisses back confidently at first, then out of sync, then trying to pull away, saying something muffled. 
“Good?” You break the kiss to ask, wetting your lips. 
“Yeah. S’prised me’s all.” He says, breathing heavy. “I just wanted to say I think you’re gorgeous.” 
You pull him back into it with almost feverish urgency, pushing your tongue past his lips and to the roof of his mouth where you find his and press and move against it roughly, hand finding the back of his head to tilt just enough to have the perfect angle to explore. 
You recede to let him breathe and Steven catches a dribble of spit with the back of his hand, looking mortified as he having no where else wipes in on his coat. 
You bite your tongue to keep from laughing, wiping his bottom lip with your thumb. 
“Sorry,” he mumbles. “Sorry that’s gross, I dunno if I’ve ever been kissed like that, I’ve no idea how,” he wipes his lips again. 
“It’s not like movies. Very, very wet.” 
“You talk a lot for someone who stares.” 
“In the restaurant. Out here I’ve dropped it now. You know I don’t know if I want to be remembered as that guy in your head.” 
“Something else, then?” 
“I’m cool with gift shop guy.” He says as you give him lighter pecks on the mouth. 
“Much better than spaced out Steven.” You giggle, tracing his cheekbone around back to his ear and down his beck, letting your thumb slip under his collar as you press your forehead against his. 
“Yeah well, I find it hard to get a good night’s sleep.” 
“I’d like to get a good one with you.” 
“Hmnn?” His eyes flit to your lips and then back up to yours, bewildered. 
“Oh, oh you mean!” He pulls back and gives an enthusiastic nod, a wide smile on his face.
“Hells yeah.” 
“I like your apartment,” Steven says under his breath between dizzying kisses in your entryway, watching you alternate between his throat and kissing him with utter fascination, unsure how to keep up or what to do with just how expertly you’re making him fall apart. 
“You haven’t seen it yet.” 
You pull him by the wrist through your living space, past the couch to your bedroom, where you shut the door and shuck off his jacket. 
“Do you have a condom?” He asked before you can devour any attempts he has at talking again with your mouth. 
“Yeah, one sec.” You dig around in your nightstand drawer, pulling one out and turning back to give Steven a gentle shove onto the bed, climbing atop him and undoing his buttons with your free hand. 
“I can’t believe this is really happening,” Steven says when you finish with his top and strip off your own, tearing the condom open and sitting back on your haunches. “This is unbelievable.” 
You grab him by the chin, making his heart skip a beat. “Let’s aim for unforgettable.” You say. 
Steven lays on his back, hands on his chest, having finally caught his breath. 
“That was lovely.” He says. 
“Lovely?” You repeat, stretching your spine, side eying him. 
He turns on his elbow you look at you. “Lovely. Amazing. Mind blowing. All of the above.” 
“Been awhile?” You chuckle, tracing his collarbone to his shoulder before hooking your arm over it. 
“You have no idea.” As lost in your eyes he is, he pulls away to check the time, sitting up. 
“I um, I should get back to my apartment,” he moves to get off the bed, and you sit up after him, catching his wrist. “Hey wait. Don’t be ridiculous, stay.”
“No, I uh…” Steven stops himself, not wanting to mess this up. If he told you he had some weird sleep condition, that he literally bolted himself to his bed to sleep every night for fear of missing hours or waking up places he didn’t recognize, he was certain that was the kind of thing that would scare you off. 
That look you're giving him, that half lidded, cocksure smile, still topless and not even trying to cover it, it’s convincing enough on its own. 
“That’d be just fine. Yeah. Yeah okay.” He relaxes back into the bed and you lean up and kiss him. 
“Great.” You murmur, pulling him in and tugging the covers back over you. 
Maybe just one night would be fine. 
Marc wakes up in an unfamiliar room, with an unfamiliar woman in bed next to him.
You stir, burrowing your face into the pillows before you feel the bed spring back, blinking your eyes open and pulling yourself up just enough to see him retrieving his clothes from the floor. 
“Hey, no rush, it’s Sunday, come ‘ere.” 
“I’m sorry, you seem nice and all, but I was not supposed to wake up here.” 
“What happened to your accent?” You laugh humorlessly, brow knitting. 
“Accent? Jesus, I don’t have time for this, I’ve got to be in Madripoor in like two hours, that idiot was supposed to be back at his apartment.” 
He gathers up the rest his things as he mutters to himself. “Yeah yeah I know, I can get to the justice after I get back to his apartment and sort things out there. I swear if this is what gets him… yes. Of course I’m grateful. I will handle it.” 
“Hey, wait!” You pull a t-shirt and pajama pants on, following him into your living room, but by then he’s already got his shoes on. 
He opens and struts right out your front door without another word, slamming it behind him. 
Monday afternoon you take your lunch break to head down to he museum, stomping right up and into the corner gift shop, where sure enough, Steven sits twiddling a pen while he reads. 
He sets aside both when he sees you, smile falling when he sees your face. 
You plant your palms and lean directly over the counter, huffing. 
“Hey, you know I really can’t believe I fell for your shy soft boy act, you pull that on everyone? Or was I just ‘special’ enough to catch your attention?” 
“What? I– what are you talking about– hey!” He jumps up from his seat as you push back from the counter, folding your arms. 
“I mean what on Earth is wrong with you!” You stare him down as he rounds his station to speak with you. 
“Hey, whatever I said, I’m sorry? I don’t– I didn’t mean it– will you please tell me what you are talking about?” 
“You jerk. Can you go one minute without lying? Rhetorical, because you obviously can, if it���s convenient to getting in my pants. God! I can’t believe I slept with you.” 
“You slept with me?!” He exclaims, hunching over as a couple passerbys give him looks, making you roll your eyes. “Holy shit, I thought I dreamt that.” He says mostly to himself, tugging at the hair behind his ear. 
You look at him, jittery, wrinkled clothes, chewing at his thumbnail. 
“Are you high?” You ask, tilting your head to get a better look at his face, trying to make out if it’s a bruise or just bags under his eyes. 
He quickly shakes his head. “No, no-no-no, I-I don’t do pills or anything. I mean, maybe I should, to be honest– but I’ve never done drugs of any kind.” 
You throw up your hands. “Why would I believe you after yesterday!” 
“Yesterday? Why– What happened yesterday.” 
“Unbelievable. You know, you aren’t worth this. Don’t text me anymore.” You turn to the door, but his whirls around you in a panic, blocking you. 
“Wait! Wait, please. Look I don’t know what happened the other night, but I assure you that's not me, I’m not like that, I would never say stuff like that, I’d never use you, I like you! I really like you, and I don’t want to never see you again.” 
You study his expression, torn between how completely devoid of any sort of dishonesty it looks, paired with how desperate his tone is, and just who you remember walking out of your apartment. 
“You’re acting completely different now.” You shake your head, hanging it and letting out a long sigh before looking back up at him, which you immediately regret because he has the saddest puppy eyes you’ve ever seen. “I have to get to work. If you think you can explain to me just what the hell is going on with you, meet me at the park at six thirty, I’ll… I’ll hear you out.” 
“Thank you,” he folds his hands, needing to shout after you as you make to leave. “I won’t let you down, I promise!”
You give a dismissive wave as you head out museum's front doors. 
“…and that’s all I know, I swear.” You’re seated on a bench in the park. By now the sun has set, and the lights are the only illumination with a cloudy night sky. 
“I believe you.” You sigh, letting the leg you’d been sitting on down from the bench to stretch. “How often does this happen?” 
“Most nights. I’ve been trying not to sleep because of it.” 
You shake your head. “Why the hell haven’t you gone to a doctor?” 
“Because I can sort it, it’s fine. You go to a doctor if you're sick, I’m not sick.” He fiddles with his hands, realizing your looking at them he smoothes them down his pants and keeps them on his knees. 
“Sleepwalking isn’t sick. It-it’s just like, stress, or something.” Even saying it aloud he didn’t believe it, but what was the alternative? That he was legitimately mad? 
“Steven, look at me. You need to get help for this. That's mental. It’s not normal. Tell me you’ll get help.” 
“I’ll look into it.” He scratches at his 
You frown. “And mean it. You need help.” 
“I mean it, I will get help.” He nods when you put a hand over his, pulling him into a side hug. 
“Thank God.” You murmur. 
Two months later, you and Steven are kind of dating. 
Though your relationship had taken a big step back, you still texted and called him frequently. You didn’t feel like you could bring yourself to getting any closer, not when you still didn’t know who you had woken up in bed with. 
Today he’s over for tea, on your couch with his hands folded, helping himself to the biscuits you put out. 
You come back from putting the water on, stuffing a couple cookies in your mouth before he can eat them all. 
“Oh! I erm, I got you a copy of that new CD from that band you like.” Steven digs around in his bag, pulling out a still wrapped album, handing it to you. 
“Holy cow.” You scoff as you take it. 
It was the newest release from your favorite band, and had been sold out everywhere for more than two weeks. 
“I can’t believe you remembered. I’m putting this on right now.” You pop on the stereo, slow rock jams filling the apartment as the water boils and you bring the pot to the table, filling Steven’s cup. 
“So how are you doing?” You ask. 
“Oh, mostly good. I still haven’t figured him, Marc, out much, but I am sleeping better.” 
“You figure out just what ‘he’ is yet.” 
“No, still no diagnosis. I’m having trouble finding a therapist I like. I also, you know, not keen on institutionalization.” 
“Right. Well I mean so long as he doesn’t decide to go on some break.” You grimace, wondering what the hell he could’ve had been up to in Madripoor of all places, if he’d even been serious. 
“Beg your pardon?” 
“Never mind.” You give your hand a wave.” I still can’t believe I’m how you found out.” 
“Hey now hang on, I knew, I just didn’t know why.” He stands up to be at your height, annoyed. 
“Or how, or what.” You give him a look. 
“Yeah. But I did know.” He shrugs. “Even though he was trying to keep it from me.” 
“Well yeah, probably because you’re the nice one. Marc is a prick.” 
“The hell did she just say about me!?” Marc growls, catching his eye in his reflection in your tea kettle. 
Steven blinks. “He didn’t like that.” 
You draw your brow, frowning. “He can hear me?” 
“Apparently? I don’t get most of it myself, I didn’t think he could hear me till like last week.” 
You push off the back of the couch. “Tell him to come out here and talk to me right now.” 
“Uh, right, sure, yeah. Marc, you heard her.” He closes his eyes, taking a deep breath. 
When he opens them again, you slap him across the face. 
He cups his cheek, turning to look at you. “Still Steven!” 
“Shit– I’m sorry!” You cover your mouth. 
“You were going to smack him? But that’s me!” 
“I thought– I didn’t think it through, really. Is he not there?” 
“I can’t really make him come out, he just kind of does it if I let him.” 
“I’m sorry I hit you.” You say. 
“No,” he shakes his head. “He totally deserves it. Prick is right on the money.” 
“Even so, I shouldn’t have done that.” 
“Already better.” He smiles. “Though a kiss wouldn’t hurt…” 
You raise a brow and smile, pressing a kiss to his cheek. 
You hang out a while longer before heads home, leaving you to think. 
“I want to date her too.” 
“What?” Steven looks up at his mirror from across the room. “You won’t tell me where you’ve been pissing years of my life away, what you’ve been doing, but now you want to meddle with the one good thing that’s happened to me, after you nearly screwed it all up? That’s rich.” 
“I didn’t want much of anything to do with her until I saw the way she slapped you, I mean, that was unexpected.”
“She’s for sure, isn’t she? All the more reason you will not seeing her unless she asks.” 
“Let me talk to her or I’ll break up with her.” 
“We’re not together…ish. I don’t know, it’s not the simplest.” 
“I’ll ghost her. Delete her contacts. You know I will.” 
“Alright! Okay, fine. Jesus.” 
He picks up his phone. “Don’t you negotiate in anything but threats?” He starts to dial your number, then stops. 
“Hang on… you’re jealous, aren’t you?” 
“I’m sorry?” 
“You're jealous I have a girlfriend and you don’t. And she doesn’t talk nicely about you.” 
“I’d stop talking now.” 
“Holy shit, that’s hilarious. You act like you think my life is boring, but you envy it.” 
Marc glares at him, jaw working. 
“I’ll tell you what, I will set you up, but you have to tell me what you’ve been doing, and where you've been taking me.” 
“Khonshu’s not gonna like that.” 
“Again with bloody Khonshu. You’re flipping bending over backwards for that fool. Figure it out, cause that’s that.” 
“Fine.” 
“Perfect. Done deal.” 
He hits dial. “Hey so uh, Marc wants to meet you. Properly. I’ve told him he needs to apologize.” Marc rolls his eyes but doesn’t say anything. “Right. Yeah. Can you meet me?” 
“This… Marc the Merc, the pissy one?” You say, looking him over. You’d met Steven not far from the museum, and held his hand while he relaxed and let Marc take over. 
“Yes, it’s me again. Hi.” You meet his eyes, feeling oddly bothered by just how the same they look. It’s Steven, but it’s not. 
It’s painfully not him, and yet you can’t put into words how. 
“Hey,” you say, not sure what else you’re supposed to. 
“Let’s get this part out of the way: I’m sorry I walked out on you. It’s Steven’s fault we were there at all, and I had shit to attend to, but I was less than curt about it.” 
“Accepted, if that’s the best I’m going to get.” You nod, and he gestures for you to walk with him, so you do. 
“I haven’t been keeping tabs. What’s he been telling you about me?” He says. 
“Not a lot. I mean, he barely knows you, and neither do I.” 
“There’s not a lot to tell. He’s not supposed to be tangled with my life, but, since he is, I figure we might as well share.” 
You stop, and he does too. 
“What?” He says. “I’m willing to be more open if you are.” 
“What are you talking about? Are you saying you want to get with me?” 
“Would you like to?” 
He looks you right in the eyes, catching you off guard. Before you can answer he cups your face and kisses you, arm around your lower back, nearly lifting you off the ground. 
You pull away, eyes wide, breath ragged, trying to get your brain to catch up with your body, realizing you're right in the street where everyone can see you. 
“Too much?” He asks. 
“No,” you shake your head. “Just– just surprised me.” It’s quiet for a moment. 
“His apartment’s not far,” he finally says. “If you wanna see just how much of a prick I am.” 
You stare up at your boyfriend’s apartment ceiling, wondering what the hell you’ve gotten yourself into. 
You turn when you hear footsteps coming back to the bed. 
“Hi,” he gives you a little wave, holding out a cup of tea. 
You sit up on your elbows, slowly taking it. “Steven?” You say tentatively. 
“Yep, it’s me.” You stand up, throwing back half the cup and setting it aside, swallowing. “Everything go okay?” He asks.
You nearly knock him over in a hug, burying your face into his shoulder. 
“Better than okay,” you say, smiling against his bare skin. 
“Really? Oh, Gods, that's a relief.” He wraps his arm around you, pressing his nose to the top of your head. 
“Marc was different than I thought.” 
“Now we’re even, he said he’d cooperate with me some more, so I think it all works out?” 
“I love you. Both of you.” 
“Really? It’s not too weird?” 
“Hey,” you press a kiss to the bridge of his nose. “I like ‘em weird.” 
Even though you had next to no idea what was to come, between you, Steven, and Marc, you were confident you would figure it out.

Quick question that no one will know. WHERE TF ARE THEY??
Tumblr media
You can already see weapons. Theres also an arch, so maybe the mountain used to have a building???
Tumblr media
I just want to know where it is and the lore 😭 why did Mac choose this mountain, whats the history behind it. Was it just because it was secluded? I can’t imagine it’s THAT far from the city because Mk would have been more cautious if so right?
(Yeah ill just go on a field trip with my new sketchy mentor to who knows where😄 thats not a terrible idea at all. Im the Monkie Kid)
Tumblr media
Oh yay, dead people already, great signs. Also did Mac make them climb all those stairs? Man, he was really pushing Mk to his limit. Did he climb with Mk? Was it just awkward silence or was it a checkpoint thing like a video game 😭 just occasionally hes there again like (Great job just a little further 🙂)
Tumblr media
I NEED TO KNOW. What battle was happened here? Was it from the jttw, or just a random battle? Was it specific to Macaque or Wukong in anyway? Theres swords and spears littering the ground. And skeletons. It was definitely a battle ground. I believe we’ve only seen a few of these? So they’re might be clues in flashbacks?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Perhaps its Sandy’s or maybe Macaque’s? Both have spears in the ground. Though we don’t have many clues as to where the battles took place besides that Sandys flack back happened on a mountain but the place probably wasn’t a factor as it was triggered by the situation. And Macaques you can see a mountain range
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I couldn’t really find anything that matches. However if this were the case and THE battle really happened on this mountain it’d be quite interesting, but would surprisingly give me a lot to work with to make a timeline.
For instance if either battles happened on that mountain then it would have had to of been after the main jttw, or after Sun Wukongs circlet was removed. As I believe it is closer to his mountain, or at least the city. Which he would not have been near during the journey westwards, as we know his island is in the east, near the Dragon of the East’s palace.
I think Wukong in lmk either continued the pilgrimage without the circlet or they wrote most of the scenes to take place after, like the Samadhi fire. As we can see the group is still together, and Tripiaka is still their master. But Wukong is NOT wearing the circlet, so this probably takes place after. So that means other chapters could have been rewritten to be after the main journey west, and the groups just stuck together? Or perhaps get back together to do errands for the celestial realm like in this scene with Nezha.
Tumblr media
Its not a crazy assumption to think that Macaques defeat and possibly death took place after the main jttw or when Sun Wukong returned home as we see Dbks defeat/death also took place after. Perhaps Wukong was just tying up loose ends 😃
Tumblr media
Oh I ran out of photo room but In Macaque’s flashback Wukong isn’t wearing the circlet there either.
Makes me wonder just how much of the journey to the west they altered in Lego Monkie Kid, was the Lady Bone Demon’s defeat even in the early chapters? Was Macaques death before or after hers? THERE IS SO MANY LORE QUESTIONS, That if I got the answers to them It would change even more of my inner timeline than you’d expect.

Mad Love all over again❤️
Tumblr media
youtube
Tumblr media
(Wukong) The call it creeping I say loving, it's the only way for me, filling papers, sighing wavers but I stay outside her reach🎶🎵🎶
I name your mother, and your father, and the first pet that you keep, I know your favorite place to dine at when your cheque comes in each week🎶🎵🎶
I know you do your wash on sundays and separate your whites, and that your bike needs tires because last week I set those spikes🎶🎵🎶
(Lotmk Wukong) Mad Love is the best way to describe what you to had, Wukong had been tethering over the edge for a while. He was so cute to you looking like an adorable little stray, and to him you were a new goddess in his life looking up at you with hearts in his eyes. He would do anything for you and to have you near him even if he had to break your wheels, to your cart.
(Wukong) i got a million Polaroids, with the dates penned in red ink🎵🎶🎵
I sneak a walkie talkie in your room to listen to you sleep🎵🎶🎵🎶
Meanwhile you would cooed and snuggle and kiss his soft lips, never failing to give him endless affection. You would draw pictures of Wukong whenever you stalked him at the time, and you still think he might know your looking at him. As he would slowly strip out of his clothes looking over his shoulders with looks of lust and desire, begging you to come over and get him🫦. Wukong is also aware of the listening device as he would purpose moan and chirp pretending to be asleep.
(Wukong) You just down know yet, but you love me, and I love you the same. One day, we'll have a pretty wedding, and I'll be your everything🎵🎶🎵
We'll be together yes forever, we will never ever part oh you don't know it yet but baby I already got your heart🎵🎶🎵🎶
(Y/n) Some call it stalking I say walking just extremely Close behind, I'm sure if I sat down and asked you Well, you really wouldn't mind🎵🎶🎵🎶
You got those eyes that drive me crazy and I got eyes to watch you sleep, I brought a packed lunch and some tea for my stake out in your tree (outside your inn)🎵🎶🎵🎶
It's always fun to tempt Wukong whenever your with him, strip teasing him and calling him your baby boy. Wukong would give you this empty-headed look with foggy hearts as he lick his lips wanting to taste you. You would smirk and chirp as you watched over him sleeping away, the pilgrims didn't know about you quite yet. Though you would sneak in at odd hours and give his thick tall "staff" a good old wake up kiss.
Gotta be quiet as a mouse, or else they will call police and get done in for something stupid like disturbance of the peace🎶🎵🎶🎵
And piece by piece im collecting at the things you leave behind, and when you don't i rummage though your bins to see what I can find🎶🎶🎵🎶
The final straw being how Wukong would leaven many things behind, for you to swoop in and take. Building a collection of memories of your darling husband, while he would hold things that would have your senct on it and never letting go of it. Wukong hates how has to keep his darling peaches a secret away from heaven and the world, but it's also so hot knowing your his warm and sexy secret to have to himself forever and ever.
(Y/n) You just don't know yet but you love me and I love you the same one day we'll have a pretty wedding and I'll be your everything
We'll be together yes forever, we will never ever part you just don't know it yet but baby I already have your heart
Wukong and you love each other, more then anything in the world and nobody will separate you two.........God help anyone who tried🔪
(Both) You just don't know yet but you love me and I love you the same, one day we'll have a pretty wedding and I'll be your everything
We'll be together yes forever We'll will never ever part, you just don't know yet but baby I already have your heart🎶🎵🎶💚💚💚

◆Nighttime kisses◆
Sevika×femme!reader
Word count: 1k, it was supposed to be short but... oh well
Smut MDNI
This could very well be absolutely terrible but I hope its not awful.. enjoy
Tumblr media
Ever since you and sevika had adopted your daughter life had been great. Seeing Sevika run around with the little ball of energy so innocently, almost forgetting not more than a year ago she was still a 'murder-machine' for Silco. Luckily Silco wasn't completely cold-hearted and had granted Sevika time off work as a subtle hint of gratitude for her loyalty over the years.
You sat on a beaten down sun lounger on the roof of the apartment, the burning warmth if the sun hitting you pale skin. Watching as Sevika was chasing your daughter around pretending to be the 'big bad monster'. All that could be heard were giggles from the little one and the occasional growl from sevika along with a lot of heavy breathing. Even from yourself. You hadn't admitted it to Sevika but seeing her gaurd lowered as she became more comfortable with being a mother just did something to you, everytime she kissed your daughter on the nose or tucked her into bed... it made your stomach do twists which felt nice alongside the throbbing between your legs.
One thing neither of you had really thought about was just how little alone time you'd have together making your more intimate moments spread out super thin. Your lucky if you two got down to business more than once a week- which considering it was Sevika it practically felt like a year.
As you were lost in thought, watching your two girls run around the sun started to set. Your awakened from your daydream by Sevika. "Sweetheart? Its time to put this little rascal to bed." She said as she held your daughter in her arms, already half asleep. "Yeah.. yeah okay im coming baby." You follow her back down to the apartment and into your daughters room. You watch as she dresses your daughter into her favourite pyjamas- frozen of course. Both you and Sevika sit down on either side of the small girls bed as you tuck her in.
"Night mommy, night mama..." your daughters small voice calls out before her head hits the pillow and she practically falls asleep straight away. Not that either you or Sevika are complaining of course- that means no reading shitty children's books tonight. You watch as Sevika leans down to press a kiss to the little girls forehead and muttering, "sweet dreams babygirl, I love you." And there it was again, the throbbing ache between your legs. You need Sevika and you need her now. "Come on Sevi..." you whisper to avoiding waking the sleeping little one just feet away. As the two of you silently move out of the room, Sevika switches the light off and closes the door. She proceeds to follow you to the couch where you flop down so hard the couch almost moves. Your pent-up frustration starting to show.
Sevika being Sevika notices right away, you lived and hated the fact that she was amazing at reading people. "Come here." Sevika says as she pats her lap. Her tone was gentle but you knew it was a command. Seconds later you find yourself straddled over her muscly thighs, the heat pooling between your legs is almost unbearable. "Needy tonight hm? Whats gotten you so worked up?" She chuckles at how quick you moved. That damn mocking tone causing you to grind your cunt right against her leg. "Seeing you be so... motherly i-" This earns you a chuckle from Sevika, but before she can tease you any further a whimper slips from your lips. "Vika' please..." It comes out almost to breathy for your liking but the thoughts swimming around your mind block out any sense of embarrassment. Another talent Sevika had was knowing when to tease you and when you give you what you need, she could almost feel the need seeping out of you- she could definitely the wetness seeping through your panties onto her short-clad bare thigh.
Her teasing, commanding tone dropped once she heard how pathetically desperate you were for her, was being a mother making her soft? Maybe. "Let me take care of you sweetheart its okay, ive got you..." She grabs the hem of you dress and pushes it up and stuffs it into the underside of your bra, making sure it stays out of her way. "Sevi ple-" your cut off by her hand slipping into your white, arousal coated thong. The moan that escapes your lips is embarrassingly loud for such a simple touch, yet you felt touch-starved and this... this was heaven. Your manicured nails which were overdue an infill dig into the rough muscles of her shoulder as her calloused fingers collect your slick from you lips. Her two fingers expertly circle your clit and you feel like your on fire, your hips bucking against her hand as moan after moan falls from your lips. Sevika makes no move to hold you still or keep you quiet, she knew how bad you needed this from the way you were grinding down on her hand like you'd die if you didn't cum in the next minute.
Her two large fingers gently squeeze your clit sending shockwaves of pleasure from your core to your brain. Your head falls forward to rest on her shoulder as you hump her hand like a dog in heat. "Fuck- sev please dont stop I'm gonna-" your own moan cuts you off as Sevika moves her attention away from your clit and stuffs the two fingers into your cunt. You bite down on her shoulder to somewhat try and keep the noise to a minimum considering your daughter is asleep two rooms over. "Shh sweatheart, let go for me... your doing so good for me hm? Good girl.." the small sprinkle of praise sends you over the edge, your cunt clamping around her fingers, as if they're sucking them in. You muffle ypur moans into her shoulder as you cum, your slick wetness just covering her hand and thigh, your own thighs not looking any better. Her movements slow and slow as you ride it out until she removes her fingers, bringing them to lips to suck them clean. "Taste so sweet baby... just like honey"
"Vika'... n-need more..." your plea's for more only earns you a deep, low chuckle from Sevika. She grips the back of your thighs and effortlessly lifts you in her arms. "You didn’t seriously think i was done with you yet did you baby?.." and that was when you knew... she's gonna make sure you never feel this pent up again...

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! Here’s a jegulus oneshot for the holiday
Not beta’d im sick and lazy
This oneshot is a muggle au btw
Tags: @sunshinewhosketches @im-a-mess-of-a-person @oh-phoenixx @printershorts @invasiveroadkill @butyoureastarr
Enjoy Earthlings 👽
Tumblr media
The drive home from work was dull, cloudy, and dark.
James rubbed one hand tiredly at his eyes and sighed. He was exhausted from the extra hours he had put in at the office, and he knew it was showing through sluggish movements, eyebags, and greasy hair. He couldn’t bring himself to care, not when he had no one at home that would complain of his state.
Regulus was knee deep in his studies, so he was probably at his own home with a cup of tea and nursing a sore hand from writing pages of notes. So he was out of the question.
All of his other friends were taken and busy with their partners, Peter was engaged to this nice girl he met at university and Sirius was planning to move in with Remus soon, so they were most likely unavailable.
And that left him alone, again.
The only thing James had to look forward to was putting a frozen pizza in the oven and putting on the 4th season of the bachelor, observing the drama and lives of strangers that were infinitely more interesting than his own. He would watch until he slumped into his couch and eventually fell asleep during the middle of an episode.
Exciting. Thrilling, even.
James stopped at a red light. He drummed his fingers against the steering wheel, glancing out of the window.
To see a young couple making out sloppily, their hands groping each others backsides. It looked less like making out and more like they were parasites, sucking at the other’s mouth as would a leech.
James groaned before putting his head against the wheel, earning a loud hoooonk from his car.
#
He tiredly stuck the key into the keyhole of his apartment, unlocking it and stepping inside.
“I’m home.” He said aloud. He had expected no one to answer, as usual.
The first thing he was met with was the warm, sweet aroma of oranges mixed with burning candles wafting pleasantly to his nose. His home wasn’t as desolate as he thought it’d be, it seemed more cozy instead of cold and sad like usual.
“Welcome home!” Came a soft voice from the kitchen.
James confusingly stepped out of his shoes, shrugging off his work jacket and hanging it on a coat hanger. He then tiredly walked down the hallway and peaked around the corner with caution.
There, Regulus stood in an apron. His black curls had been pinned out of his eyes with hairpins, and there were was flour smudged on his nose and cheeks. He was busy stirring a large pot of what looked like soup.
“It smells amazing in here.” James muttered, making his way to the dining table and slumping over the table.
“Soup’s almost done, love.” Regulus replied, stirring the pot with a wooden spoon. He tasted it, before dumping a spice into the pot and stirring again.
James hummed. “I thought you were busy with exams?”
Regulus shrugged. “Dorcas threatened to shred all my notes if I didn’t spend some time with someone on Valentine’s Day.”
“Valentine’s Day!” James sighed. “I must’ve forgotten. Those extra hours really took it out of me. What’s in the soup?”
“Potatoes, broth, carrots, chicken…” Regulus paused, trying to recall everything he added. “I’m sure there’s more, I must’ve forgotten.”
“Mmm, sounds good.”
Regulus turned off the stove, reaching for a ladle and scooping bits and chunks of soup into two bowls. “I also made Orange Muffins for desert.”
Regulus set a bowl in front of James, which he took gratefully, before setting next to the man with his own.
James eagerly stuck a spoonful of soup into his mouth, before yelping in pain and doubling over.
Regulus let out a little laugh. “I just got it off the stove, my love. It’s hot.”
James rolled his eyes, before blowing on another spoonful and biting into a chunk of potato.
The meal tasted like home and snow-days spent inside and being fussed over while being sick. The salt in the broth took him back to his parent’s house, where everything was warm and fine and not so lonely. When he didn’t have to overwork himself in order to avoid the growing void that had hallowed him out. When time’s were simpler, before everyone grew up and grew apart, busy with their own lives. Times when he was a kid who had no worries other than finals.
He hadn’t realized how much he missed it.
Before he knew it, James was crying. Tears leaked from his eyes and he quickly shoved another bite into his mouth.
“What? Was the meal not good?!” Regulus asked worriedly. “James?”
But James cried and cried. He couldn’t help it, he cried until his nose began to run. He cried until he began to hiccup. All while Regulus continued to watch.
Regulus a gentle arm around his head, bringing his face against his shoulder. James buried his face into the crook of his neck and clung to the other man.
Regulus held him like that until the tears in his eyes dried.
#
Later in the night after they put out the candles and ate dinner, they laid with their legs tangled on the couch. They were watching some random movie about the power of Valentines Day, and it was bad. James listened to Regulus’ heart beat, his head laid against the other’s chest as Regulus rubbed his back.
“This is a stupid movie.” Regulus muttered sleepily.
James let out a little chuckle. “At least it has a good message.”
“The message is such a cliche, though.”
“What should it be then? ‘Don’t burn the Orange Muffins?’”
“That! Was an accident, Potter!” Regulus sputtered and James laughed. “I was busy with you!”
“We didn’t even do anything…yet.” James smirked.
Regulus batted him in the head.
“Mhm, yet. Maybe if you’re lucky.”
James raised himself up to be closer to Regulus’ face, to the point they could feel each other’s breath. “I’ve been working real hard. Please?”
Regulus rolled his eyes before crashing their lips together, kissing him senseless.

..Well, I actually got into it back in 2020-- but recently I have dragged myself back into the fandom a bit. 😂 The biggest obstacle I have to rejoining the fandom fully is just making time to sit down and rewatch the show.
I have such a hard time switching tasks and just doing something 💀 but hopefully I'll get there soon! <:)))

@bluetootsiepop
My advice is to study references closely. When it comes to making faces up/drawing faces without a reference? Like if its an OC? I'm afraid I cant think of any advice <:( I struggle with that a lot too. 😔
(Also thank you so much!! :DD )

Eagerly awaiting your reaction to episode 3 😊💜
Tumblr media
ask and you shall receive! (i’m not actually waiting for people to ask dw, it was just good timing ahahah)
prefacing this with flatmate and i deciding to watch it and saying at the same time to each other ‘i’m scared’ 🤡
(alsoooo i may have had erik’s death spoiled - i didn’t know when or how, but i quickly realised that it was coming when wille got called into the office, so im afraid im robbing you of that big reaction, SORRY)
after heart-eyeing the screen for !!wille and simon basically giggling at each other during the choir!! and !!let me teach you sheet music!! and then honestly laughing so much at the chaos of wille saying to forget about it only to literally the day after realise he can’t (obsessing over how accurately babygay that is 🥹)
i then proceeded to write one whole note whilst watching:
i’ve been icked out for about 15 mins straight
^this was at the parents cause Oh My God Get Them All To Therapy Immediately. and maybe tax them just a bit.
but then wille being the fucking cutest ever with simon’s mum 😭😭
also. i see now that august is truly and fully getting his own story line, and i am concerned. the pain in his mothers eyes in that scene??? and just the whole ‘my family are broke’ except he could easily sell his assets he just doesn’t want to loose the status AHH
actor geek moment again, i just want to mention how ive literally just come back from a day long workshop with a director and one of the things that we talked about that resonated with me was about how when you play a villain actors often have the tendency to try to sympathise with the character. the director said how that’s often boring and that what often really resonates is to bring out empathy with the audience- make them see the human in the bad decisions, and understanding even if it’s uncomfortable to admit. and august in that scene was so that for me!!! like what a dick!! but fuck? i get it? kinda?
and simon disappointing his friends :(( they didn’t get it clearly. and that’s so valid tbh
(a slight ick though at ayub waiting for simon to speak only to say ‘i don’t wanna hear it’ and rushing off…interesting directing choices but ill forgive it in light of the rest of it being genius so far)
also i spent this entire episode expecting the fish tank scene and it was nowhere to be seen??? my spoiler knowledge is clearly false/i have terrible memory for numbers
these are my thoughts, i can’t believe ep3 is halfway through s1, it’s felt like ive only just started and now somehow im in the thick of it?
and finally, to any new yr followers, apologies and also please enjoy the influx of san remo content on my blog- if you don’t know it, it’s a italian song contest, i lived in italy for two years and have accepted it as part of my culture. i’m afraid there is no way around this. (literally as im posting this mahmood premiered his new single im going insane if you don’t know him go find out especially if you like omar’s music i reckon you’d like this)
k im done bye thanks for reading xx

*** it wasn’t until your story was over that you realized how much you had smoked, way more than you had told yourself you would, everything moving just a little bit slower. 
he had already rolled another, kept his eyes locked on you as he grabbed two small bottles of wine out of your fridge, scratching the roots of your hair for a split second on his way back to his too-close position on your worn out couch. 
your drowsy eyes lingering too long on him, heartbeat in your throat as you caught his, staring back at you with those stupid eyes and that stupid face and you couldn’t figure out why it was suddenly so hot in the room and why your hands were kind of clammy and- 
oh. oh. 
fuck. 
“so,” he finally blinked, snapping the rubber band on his wrist. 
“so,” you giggled, unable to help the sheer amount of nervousness running through you, like a teenager in… 
…love…? ***

Tumblr media
★🎸🎧⋆。 °⋆
“good GOD sam what the FUCK?!” you yelled at him, half to tears as you held your purple sword between the two of you. 
eyes puffy and red, voice cracking as your fragile hands struggled with the weight of crashing adrenaline. 
“two thing- three things,” he sighed, kicking his shoes off and lining them up by the door. 
“one, since when have you had this fucking beast,” he laughed, taking your sword from your hands and placing it back by your door. 
“two, you gave me a key to your house, dumbass,” you looked at his keys, still in the door. classic. no wonder he just now came around. 
“three, since when do you not answer your phone?”. 
ah. that thing. 
“actually, one more thing, why the hell are you crying?” 
damn it. 
“sam i-”. 
“also, when was the last time you ate? or showered or-”
“sam i kno-”. 
“you scared me half to death you kn-”. 
“SAMSON,”. 
you had never once raised your voice at him, or anyone in the valley for that matter. you scared yourself, covering your face as soon as you said it. 
looking at each other like a deer in the headlights, frozen in time. 
“i’m sorry i-” you started the clock again, gravity no longer struggling against the weight of the silence your cabin held. 
“no no im sorry i shouldn’t have i-” he sighed, turning around and walking out your front door. 
fuck. fuck fuck fuck. why do i fucking ruin everything every goddamn ti- 
three knocks on your door, not even fully closed, stopping your tears from falling again. 
“hi, can i come in?” he poked his head around the opening, shit eating grin plastered on his face. 
all you could do was laugh, the first time you had laughed in a while. in a long fucking time. 
you waved him in, body already heavy enough on its own, begging to be held in the corner of your couch, not even bothering to make the trek to your bedroom most nights. 
“can we start with one question at a time?” he practically pleaded, the softest you had heard his voice in months. 
a silent nod, not even bothering to sit up all the way. 
you didn’t want to answer anything, you didn’t want to talk at all. 
“where have you been?” you could feel the pain in his voice, nearly snapping like a string pulled too tight, strummed one too many times. 
“aw not even gonna ask me about my sword? lame,” you huffed, hoping you would be able to avoid the inevitable just a little bit longer. 
“okay fine, since when have you had that fucking beast?” 
a small tug on your lips, knowing he would eventually always come around and cave in. 
you found the strength to sit up, knowing his favorite stories were yours from the mines. his eyes would always glimmer, the most animated faces that could bring a laugh out of anyone, even George. 
“wait- before you start, you down?” he held up his fake headphone case, and you knew exactly what he had brought. 
“sam you are god in the flesh yes please,”. 
he raised an eyebrow at you, a small laugh under his breath as he unzipped the case that you knew would bring an ounce of relief, one that wouldn’t leave you begging for mercy and ginger ale as you opened your eyes. 
was it the best idea? probably not. your self-inflected cage near impossible to hold on to, each drag another lock undone. 
your mouth moved faster than your brain, begging soul and childish heart trying to take their chance at escape.
 to be heard, by more than tile in your shower, by more than your chickens who obviously didn’t know what you were ever saying. by the seeds you planted, the rocks you broke open. by someone. 
i can keep it together. yeah, a couple drags won’t hurt. just enough to stop crying for a bit. that’s the last thing he needs to see. 
“here,” he handed you the perfectly wrapped blunt, sealed with a swipe of his tongue and calloused fingertips. 
his hands a little shaky, silver rings along his fingers worn from prolonged wear, same tarnished look as the bracelets you’d never once seen him take off. 
“you got a light?” you asked, looking around to see if you had one lying around, too lazy to make a designated home for most of the things inside your near empty cabin. 
in a single flick of his thumb, the lighter you gifted him on a whim ignited in his hand. wrapped in a watercolor mix of blues and greens, the same colors as his eyes. 
he never put two and two together,  but when Pam had stopped by the only liquor store between the valley and the desert, of course you joined her. 
met at the counter with a few snacks you hoped would keep you awake in the mines, as well as some drinks for after,  the colors flashed in the corner of your eye, placing it in front of the weathered cashier before she could tell you your total. 
you couldn’t figure out why you bought it so quickly until you saw him next, mouth running dry at the thought. you hadn’t done that for sebastian, or abigail, for anyone, and you weren’t nearly as close to him as you were to his best friends. well, at the time. 
before the concert happened, the four of you were nearly inseparable. rushing to get your farm work done by the early afternoon, enough time to yourself before you would all settle in sebastian’s room, nearly yelling at each other over a never ending game at his table. 
that’s when things flipped upside down, sideways, and every which way other than level, fight or flight activated since. a mix of both, really, settling on a third option of avoidance and breakdown, burying yourself in the hole you didn’t realize you were almost out of. 
a hastily written letter in your mailbox, stating you had to be at the bus stop by 4, no later, plans for the day flipped upside down. 
you hadn’t been to a concert in forever, and for their band? you wouldn’t miss that for the world. 
it didn’t help that there was something different about him when he was on stage, a sultry kind of confidence that made your heart beat funny and your stomach flip. 
comfortable, like he really did belong on a stage, born for it. eyes glued to yours for a little too long, verses ending in near whines, others in heart wrenching screams, the truest form of him you had ever seen. 
that stupid smirk on his face as he did it, really selling the show. he was made for it, it came naturally. you weren’t sure how the other girls at the show weren’t fawning over him, hoping to grab his attention and sneak backstage. 
when he pulled his eyes off you to focus on his bright red guitar, energy radiating off of him as if he couldn’t stay still for a second longer, even if he tried, you were startled back to the present. 
a slight weight on your chest when the air finally came back to your lungs, as if you had been holding it that whole time. 
a tingling under your skin, fingertips buzzing with god knows what, surely just the reverberation from the speakers, right? 
too lost in the show to remember you were in a crowd, just about everyone to your back. guard down, brain fuzzy. 
disappointed that their set ended so soon, or it at least felt like it did, the three of them walking behind the curtain and out of your sight. 
then he tapped your shoulder before you could even turn around, the one who pushed you to the valley in the first place. 
the final straw, leaving with your phone and your wallet, and anything of importance inside a single duffle bag, you took the key from the letter you finally unsealed at your desk. 
you wished you had opened it so much sooner, to visit him in his fragile state, hell to see him for the first time in over a decade. but he still managed to mail you that letter, somehow figuring out the correct address. 
you didn’t open the letter until you felt like it, forgetting it in your desk drawer as it was the only place you could keep anything mostly private. 
a locked journal, grandpa’s letter, and a mess of papers and sticky notes, poor attempts at keeping your work in some kind of order, too many projects and a skeleton crew. all about profit, don’t give a single shit about us, figures. 
one fight too many, the lowest blows he had ever thrown your way. you would have sworn you killed a man with the way he spoke down to you, all because he found out your new supervisor was a younger man. 
it didn’t matter that you explained he didn’t even live in Zuzu, had a beautiful family, and had only spoken to you via email, you were ruining everything. 
you were the problem, the worst disease the universe had ever known, an ungrateful liar who was lucky to have him. 
you mirrored your mother too much, or maybe your father, a disappointment at best, too broken and scarred to be loved by anything at all. let alone sincerely. 
you were too difficult, too much. emotional, crazy, worthless. and you were lucky to have him, after all he swore up and down that he was the only one who would ever put up with you. 
the words you could eat, swallow them down, throw them up behind closed doors. they would spill out mixed with bile and tears, the bathroom fan and shower running to hide enough of the noise. 
a never ending cycle, to sit down, shut up, and learn your place. to do as you were told, to look the way you were told, to be what you were told. but when his palm swiped clear across your face, you couldn’t stomach it. 
you were just so easy to mold into whatever he pleased, never given the chance to grow a spine, just a bundle of nerves and blood on the floor. 
living in greyscale, you weren’t even sure if you were alive. and you weren’t exactly sure if you wanted to be. 
so when a year of color, vibrant and warm, shut down at the turn of your head, so did you. 
you had nearly forgotten entirely, building yourself up, to some degree at least. able to walk, to get out of bed every day, to do things you never thought possible. a fairytale, in a way. 
“long time no see, huh?” his eyes were the same swirling mess you remembered, each word pulling out another vertebrae of your makeshift spine you built without direction. 
linked in all the wrong places, nerves all jumbled up. and it hurt like a goddamn bitch to have them pulled out so rough, shattering in his grasp. 
“didn’t think you could leave forever, could you? blocking all my numbers only got you so far. see you’ve turned into quite the whore haven’t you? did i teach you nothing?” 
circling, spinning, dizzy, fainting, everything in between and nothing at all. you didn’t know where you were, devoid of color and vision blurred no matter how fucking hard you tried. 
lungs empty, collapsing as he clawed his way through your chest to break you down again. 
you couldn’t remember how, or when you got back to the valley, all you could do was mimic other forms, using the chatter of the people who accepted you as one of them, poorly shoving yourself into a unrecognizable form scarred to the brink of death. 
you had lied to sam over and over and over, saying you had come down with something, you had a lot of stuff to catch up on, any half-assed excuse you could to hide your truest form away. 
to slip back into all your bad habits, only taking enough time to do the bare necessities for the farm and the animals, not bothering with much else. 
too much happening to begin to comprehend, endless pit of dread  on top of so many feelings that left you confused and scared in a good way, sam’s unwavering stare on that stage replaying over and over, so many conflicting wires that your system crashed and all the circuits burned out. 
blocking every number until your ears nearly bled, over and over and over, unknown numbers driving you insane. 
paranoid that he would find you, that a piece of him had followed you, it was just too fucking much. 
you didn’t even know how long it had really been, a week, a month? 
you didn’t feel human anymore, you hadn’t since that earth shattering ending. 
but there it was, color, in the form of flame illuminating the eyes that matched the vessel in his hand, waiting for you to lean in and pull the smoke in. 
frozen, blunt between your shaking fingers, your ears stopped their ringing. 
“are you-” he tilted his head to the side, eyebrows slightly pulled together as he watched your face with so much intent. 
blinking hard, remembering that he couldn’t read your mind, that you were probably freaking him out for no good reason, you nodded your head and brought the kindest of offerings to your lips. 
“you’re a shit liar, i hope you know that,” he almost laughed, that stupid fucking smile on his face as he watched yours, and you swore you burned alive on the spot. 
hyper focused, holding that damned lighter to the end, watching as you pulled the smoke in, filling your lungs you didn’t think you had anymore. 
trying your best to remember to take it slow, handing it off to him after your first long inhale, the sweetest hint of vanilla at the end. 
he remembered? 
it was the same taste as it was that first time you hung out for real, out by the quarry for no good reason. just talking, so much talking, hands in pockets and steps slow, following nothing at all, just the urge to keep silence at bay a little bit longer. 
that evening a core memory, all happy afterwards. the first time you weren’t carrying around the weight of disaster on your shoulders, on your chest. 
“alright, nowwwww,” he said through some heavy breathing, smoke held for a little too long. 
“okay, okay fine,”. 
you tried your best to make the tale exciting, about the serpents you fought and how you found that first prismatic shard. 
that there was some sort of magic in the desert, a hint left on the cave walls to make an offering to whoever was out there, the best sword you had ever laid eyes on. 
was the purple a little obnoxious? sure, but it was also a reminder of your strength, at least enough to find one of the rarest minerals out there, something you were able to do on your own. 
it wasn’t until your story was over that you realized how much you had smoked, way more than you had told yourself you would, everything moving just a little bit slower. 
he had already rolled another, kept his eyes locked on you as he grabbed two small bottles of wine out of your fridge, scratching the roots of your hair for a split second on his way back to his too-close position on your worn out couch. 
your drowsy eyes lingering too long on him, heartbeat in your throat as you caught his, staring back at you with those stupid eyes and that stupid face and you couldn’t figure out why it was suddenly so hot in the room and why your hands were kind of clammy and- 
oh. oh. 
fuck. 
“so,” he finally blinked, snapping the rubber band on his wrist. 
“so,” you giggled, unable to help the sheer amount of nervousness running through you, like a teenager in… 
…love…? 
“listen, i’m sorry i scared you, i really didn’t mean to, i just got worried, y’know?” he shrugged, clouded in what seemed like…embarrassment? 
“it’s okay, i should have told you, i-”
“did i do something wrong? if i said something you should’ve just slapped me or something y-”
“no, no no, it wasn’t anything you did, i promise,” you grabbed his hand, like it was an instinct or something, trying your best to make it clear to him that it really wasn’t his fault at all. 
it made your stomach flutter, brain stop working for a second. you dropped it after a second too long, clearing your throat after. 
“what’s going on, then? i can’t just sit here and know somethings wrong and not at least try and do something, i just-”
“okay, okay, but you keep this between us okay?” your eyes pleaded, begging him to keep that part of you away from everyone, everything. 
what am i doing? 
“yes ma’am,” he nodded, nothing but seriousness in his voice, adjusting towards you to express his full attention, something he could rarely do. 
unable to meet his eyes, you worked up the nerve, or whatever it was holding you back, to yank on the string holding your pride together. you placed it in his hand, unraveled, bloodied, gone for good. 
it wasn’t linear, a jumbled mess of words spilling out faster than you could catch them. every syllable foreign to you, telling some sort of story that didn’t seem to have much plot, back and forth between before and after, you weren’t even sure. 
you were so fucking scared, never telling a soul about the years you spent in your own little hell, never even bothering to ask for help.
so small, so frail, spilling out all the nastiest parts of your memory, your being, onto your living room floor. a mess you weren’t sure how to clean up, stains permanent in the hardwood. 
but through it all you were so busy thinking about the nerves that wracked through you, suffocated by his fixated stare, holding that stupid string to your pride so delicately in his hand, just in case you wanted it back. 
you knew you couldn’t have it back, too deformed in your gutted state, embarrassed and ashamed of who you claimed to be, fraudulent identity and all. 
but it wasn’t the way your vocal cords spit the leftover bits of your soul out, it was realizing how close he was, and how the way he was looking at you made you feel hot. 
how grabbing his hand for a moment in time made you feel awkward, catching you off guard. 
the overwhelming heat of it all, face scalding, stammering your words into makeshift sentences, if you could even call them that. 
“so, um, yeah. als-” don’t say anything else don’t don’t don’t. 
“you’ve been here this whole time, alone, and petrified? you know i would’ve come stay with you, or help on the farm or something,” he spoke soft and stern, a bubbly sort of mix that made you hiccup. “he lives in Zuzu? what part?” 
his eyes squinted a little, knuckles white in angered fists, unnoticed before. how long have they been like that? 
“south side, right off the main highway. kinda by the..” 
right by the skatepark. 
“skatepark”. 
you nodded silently, connecting the fact that they probably know each other. 
“i’ll take care of it. don’t worry,”. he handed you a gentle smile, a cover up for his tensed jaw and hard blinks. “and i’ll get’cha a new phone, number, all that good stuff, m’kay,”. 
he’s just…being really nice? 
you tried your best to ignore that same feeling bubbling in your chest, the butterflies, the tingling in your fingers, the nerves. 
“you don’t have to, it’s okay i really sh-”
“hush. let me take care of you,”. 
seven words that melted into you on contact, seeping into your bloodstream like chaos. 
he…wants to take care…of me? 
“sam i-”
“ah ah ah- shush, missy,”. he inched a little closer, pointing a playful finger in your face, just to tap it on the tip of your nose. 
he’s…fuck what the hell is going on with me? 
“i want to take care of you, i’d walk to the ends of the damn earth if it meant you didn’t go MIA again,”. 
where is this coming from? am i hearing things? 
“you’ve carried all…this…your whole life. let me help, ‘kay?” 
how do i set it down? how do i let you take this knowing how hard it is to bear? 
why do you care so much? 
don’t you have your own things to worry about? what about vincent? your dad? yourself? 
for me? i haven’t done anything in return, i just, what is going ON. 
“i care because-” 
oh my god did i say that out loud ?
“yes, you did, can you listen to me for a minute, angel?” 
angel? who- i- wait a minute. 
“hey, look at me,” he grabbed your hand, mirroring your grasp from earlier, except his was steady and strong, no sign of letting go. 
“listen, i didn’t want to ruin anything, but i-”
oh my god i’m fucking- 
“sam i think im in love with you,”. 
shit. 
out of breath, startled, frozen in fear at your lack of restraint, lack of control. first you hand him your pride, and then admit what you’d been pushing down this whole time? 
so desperate to be heard, and he had open ears the whole time. 
you didn’t want to be a burden, the one who only always brought the mood down, the one everyone felt like they needed to worry about. choosing to push it down, push it away, so that they didn’t. 
but you’d been pushing this down too, nervous system sounding the alarms when feelings that even resembled something romantic began to surface, real or not. 
you denied every comment from abigail, seb, alex, even vincent, thinking they were just trying to set you up because you guys got along. 
really well. 
and hung out all the time. 
but this, you at your lowest, pride removed, walls crumbled, truest form you could show, mixed with a mouth that ran a little bit faster than your brain did, overflowing before you even knew what you were saying. 
your hand still in his, breath held as you waited for one of two life altering answers. to keep him by you, or for things to be uncomfortable from this moment forward. 
what the fuck was i thinking? what if he doesn’t feel the same? oh god what about penny- god am i a fucking moron? 
“oh thank fucking god,” he sighed, yanking you from your awkward distance from him to his lap, the tightest hug ever known, his face buried in the crook of your neck. 
in something near fantasy, the gravity stopped again, but this time to watch as its work finally paid off, no longer playing tug of war with your souls to make one of you confess. 
wrapping your fingers in his hair at the base of his head, praying that nothing would tear him away even if the entire valley was on fire. 
“i don’t think you know how long i’ve been waiting to hear you say that,” his breath tickled the exposed skin of your neck, pulling nothing but a few small giggles out of your chest. 
“mmm since you were eye-fucking me at the show?” you don’t know where this buzzing confidence came from, another sentence too fast for your rationale to halt. 
“well yes, but, more like right after that night at the quarry,”. 
“that was like, almost a year ago!” you pulled back to get a look at his face, hoping it would be a blushing mess, that you would get to see that beaming smile you loved so dearly. 
your drawback reluctantly pulling him away from your skin, his face was cocky. 
“i know,” he said it so, certain, like you just told him the sky was blue. “i knew you’d be mine. didn’t have to rush a thing,”. 
“oh? and how’d you know that?” you tilted your head a little to the side, eyebrow raised, acting like you didn’t feel the same, that you do remember that night like it was yesterday. 
“oh please,” he rolled his eyes, drama queen, “you think i couldn’t tell?” 
“oh what ever,” you scoffed, unaware that you were really doing anything to make it obvious, hell it wasn’t even obvious to you. 
“you’re cute,” he kissed the tip of your nose, pulling you back in as if he was afraid to lose you, arms wrapped so tight that it felt like he was putting you back together. 
“shush,” you mumbled into his ear, breath hot on his neck, swearing you felt him shiver at the feeling. 
“mmm, nah, don’t think so,” you felt him pinch at your sides a little, making you squirm around in his lap a little too much, your giggles filling his heart to the brim, spilling over and filling his lungs with such warmth he didn’t know how to contain it. 
but he knew what he was doing, knowing you were ticklish at the sides, holding back a faint groan at the innocence of your actions, the mild amount of friction making his stoned brain all fuzzy. 
first, you said those words he had been dying to hear, second, here you were in his lap, giggling into his ear and hips flush with his. 
he couldn’t stop it, the tent in his pants obvious in a matter of seconds. 
and of course you couldn’t hold back the slight gasp as you felt it press against you, the smallest little moan as you settled into it. 
the two of you sat in silence for a moment, waiting for the other to say something, to do something. 
making up his mind, his hands gripped your hips hard, moving your achy little cunt against his length. 
a hum reverberated in your chest, settling into the slow ruts, his hands guiding the way. 
“feel good, princess?” his voice an octave lower, settling perfectly down in your core. 
“mhmm,” you tried to go a little faster, a little harder, something. “wan’ more,”. 
“yeah? use your words baby,”. his grip in full control, holding back your attempt to satiate the need that seemingly came out of nowhere. 
you couldn’t even remember the last time you had been touched by someone else, just the occasional work of your fingers as your mind wandered, letting it take you wherever it wanted. 
being high, being nervous made it feel all the more overwhelming, body encased in his scent and subtly dominate disposition. 
“wan’ more of you, please,”. 
he let your hips roll harder, longer, just a few times before he held you still again, frustrated whimper spilling from your lips. 
“sammyyy, quit bein’ mean,”. his grip too firm, too steady, nothing but a devilish giggle in his throat. 
“you sure you wanna do this, sweetheart?” 
you could tell his restraint was slipping, needing those words of approval from you before he made you his, before he gave into his greedy nature and take what was his all along. 
“yes, please sammy, wanna feel ya,”. 
you didn’t recognize yourself, begging with such pity that his eyes grew tenfold, tummy pulling tight at the complete control you handed him so easily. 
one swift move, pushing himself off the couch while wrapping your legs around him, your giggles bouncing around in his skull at a million miles an hour. 
he moved with such haste, desperate to hear you, to feel you, to see you fall apart under him, to claim you for good. 
he laid you down on your bed, gently resting your frame against the plush mattress. the only light in the room was your bedside lamp and the moonlight seeping through your windows, the two of you the only bodies left on earth. 
“promise you’ll be good f’me?” he purred in your ear, fingertips dancing on your thighs. 
“mhm, i will,”. nodding with frustration, willing to do just about anything to satiate the fire already consuming your walls, twitching around nothing at all. 
your beady eyes so innocently begging, completely unaware of the man you were bringing out of him, something downright feral. 
“good girl,” he swiped his tongue across his top teeth, sharpened canines shimmering under the dim lights. 
the phrase stirred something up inside you, eyes wide and pleading, body his. 
crawling on top of you, he pulled you up the mattress, looking down at the exposed skin of your tummy, the sudden tightness of your shirt barely hiding a thing. 
his hand brushing up against your clothed clit, just enough pressure to make the frustration slither down to the tips of your toes. 
“sammyyy,” you whined with a puppy dog stare, bottom lip jutted to really sell it to him. 
“yes?” that stupid smirk on his face, every move calculated as if he’d rehearsed it a hundred times over. 
“please touch me,”. you couldn’t sound any more desperate, almost pathetic, just the way he wanted you. 
“i am touching you, my love,”. 
his purrs were criminal, so thick that it saturated your bloodstream, your brain forced into slow motion. 
“asshole,” you whimpered, trying to grab his wrist and move him where you wanted, too desperate to play the teasing game. 
“excuse me?” he shook his wrist free, grabbing the sides of your face and forcing you to look into the blown out pupils of his, so sickeningly exciting. “that’s not how we get what we want now, is it?” 
“i know you want it too,” you kept whining, eyes glossy in need, pushing your thighs together in hopes it would do something. 
“be careful what you wish for, darling,”. the laugh he barely let out was almost sinister, he knew how badly you wanted it, and how he was going to abuse that. 
he sat up straight, yanking your shorts and underwear off in one swift motion, pushing one of your thighs open with his knee that was once at your side. 
your top teeth bruising your bottom lip, holding back a giggle that was mixed with every emotion you could think of, all of it bubbling in your chest. 
the middle finger of his right hand swiping up your slit as he came back down, greedy lips wanting yours again. 
your body melting into his touch, gentle traces driving you fucking. insane. 
“more-” you tried to beg through his feverish kisses, barely giving you enough room to breathe. so in unison, in tune, made for each other. 
as he swallowed up your words, you felt his long finger dip inside you, just past your begging hole that was so desperate to be filled. 
your whimpers settling on his tongue, sweet enough to give him a sugar rush, to make him crave so much more, you were driving him insane. 
the amount of nights he had fucked his fist to the idea of you, to the sight of you in that too-short skirt you wore at the festival of the moonlight jellies, ocean breeze exposing just a little too much, completely unknowing. 
the way the dress you adorned on spirits eve pushed your tits up, nearly spilling out as he jumpscared you in the depths of the maze. 
the shirts you wore at game nights, perfume clouding his every move as it radiated off of your pulse points. a little too low cut, a little too big, on full display to him as you leaned over the table. 
the blush on your face when you gifted him every single time, teeth tugging at your bottom lip as you looked up at him for approval. 
and the swimsuit you wore at the beach, sitting next to him as he watched vincent play in the water, instantly throbbing as he watched you oblige to his little brothers wishes for you to come play with him. 
the urge to make you a mother right then and there, watching your top hold on for dear life as you lifted vincent out of the water and throwing him back in, your ass on full display as your back was turned to him. 
you drove him fucking crazy. every time you got a little to close to alex, hell even seb, something hot boiled under his flesh, jealousy. 
you were his, whether you knew that or not. he wouldn’t have it any other way. 
and here you were under him, tight walls wrapped around his finger, begging him for more more more. 
a dream, no less, you were finally where he wanted you this whole time, since the first time he laid eyes on you. 
“still wan’ more?” he whispered in your ear, peppering kisses on the side of your neck as he began to pump in and out of you, sigh of relief spilling from your parted lips. 
you nodded, eyes closed, soaking in everything you could. 
you felt his teeth sink into the spots he so gently kissed, sucking bruises dark enough to last for days in spots impossible to cover, down until he was halted by the collar of your shirt. 
a frustrated whimper from your lungs as he pulled his finger out of you, tearing your shirt off in a blur, goosebump ridden skin on full display. 
every inch of you exposed to him in the dim lighting, ethereal. 
“good god you are beautiful,” breathtaking, his words nearly a whisper, trailing kisses down your torso. 
hooded eyes looked up at you as he dressed every inch of you in admiration, practically praising the ground you walked on. 
he would give you the world if you asked, hell the whole universe and everything beyond it. 
at this moment in time, all he wanted to do was fuck you senseless, to make you finish on him again and again and again even after you swore it was too much. 
a babbling mess, shaking, marked up, his. 
as his kisses lead to the bottom of your stomach, flush with your hips, the silver dog-tag chain he promised to never take off grazed against your heat, the metal ice cold. 
he looked up at you with hunger, a man starved for days waiting for the chance to satiate his thirst. a single nod, teeth tugging on your kiss-bitten bottom lip. 
and god did he give you more, drinking you up before you could take back your approval, heaven sent. 
his tongue writing i love you’s and i want you’s all over, teasing your greedy hole that was desperately waiting to be filled with him. 
he was messy, your slick all over him, forgetting to breathe. his fingers dug into the plush of your thighs, fingers nearly turning white at the pressure. 
he let you trap him, encase him in your grasp, gasps that held moans hostage the strength he needed to forget every human need, the only thing on his mind was to please. 
your fingers tangled up in his hair, pushing his head into you as if he could get any closer. 
as his tongue lapped at your swollen cunt, his nose pressed against your clit, pulling that ache in your core a little closer, the knot a little tighter.  
he could tell by the growing arch in your back, the pressure in which your thighs encased him, the heightened pace of your whimpers. 
he wouldn’t stop even if the whole world relied on it, you were so close at just the work of his tongue, the mild vibrations from his moans, the sting of his fingers losing feeling on your thighs. 
“b-baby- pl-please don’t s-stop,”. your words choppy and mere stutters, cut off by the swirl his tongue made around your swollen clit, just to find its way back to your sopping hole. 
he listened, that was his plan, he wasn’t going to stop. not until your body remembered every inch of him, knew it belonged to him. 
another string on his guitar pulled a little too tight, you came, and came hard. 
fighting against the grip he had on you, tugging on the thick blonde strands wrapped around your fingers, trying your best to grind against his face, but he listened, not. stopping. 
incoherent words mixed in with your breathless moans and high pitched whimpers, rutting his own hips against your mattress as he drank up every drop you had to offer him, the sweetest thing he’d ever tasted. 
he slowly pulled away as your legs began to calm, a moment of peace as you caught your breath for a short second. 
“s’fuckin good,” hunger only fueled by the meal you had offered him, he needed more of you, and he needed it now. 
he pulled his shirt over his head, throwing it on the floor before taking his place on top of you again, missing his lips on yours. 
the light glimmered on him, toned and strong, adorned with piercings you had no idea he had. 
dermals placed carefully on his hips, metal bars through his nipples, you were drooling. 
his mouth on yours, sharing the taste of you as he groped every inch of you he could. 
swallowing up your moans, you needed him and you needed him now. 
reaching down, you unbuckled his belt, jeans right after. 
his queue to strip, to expose himself as much as you, eyes stuck to you as he adjusted to yank his jeans down in unison with his boxers. 
his dick slapped against him, your eyes widening as a sliver of fear shook your heart, knowing it would be a stretch. 
as expected, a piercing adorned his dripping tip, all red and swollen and begging. 
“sammy please,” you whimpered as he rubbed his thumb over his leaking head, eyes hooded and breath heavy. 
“please what, baby?” he hummed, lining himself up to your throbbing cunt, tracing his head up and down your slit, so slow you thought your heart might collapse. 
“just fuck me already,” you barked, patience run thin and you swore you would die right then and there if he didn’t fuck you stupid. 
thrill and fear mixed in your throat, slack-jawed as he began to dip inside, the sting of the stretch making your body run hot, whimpers of pain as you adjusted to his sheer size. 
“you can take it, baby, can’t you?” 
he mustered up every ounce of strength he had to sound collected, even though the grip of your walls was breaking him apart. 
so warm, so wet, so much better than he could have ever dreamt. 
“ ‘s a lot,” unsure of even yourself, could you really take it?
one hand of his leaving his fingerprints on your bones, the other grabbed the sides of your face, forcing your glossed over eyes to face his, to listen. 
“isn’t this what you begged for, dirty girl?” the cockiest look on his face, forcing you to look at him as he inched his way inside, swallowing him up so perfectly, fingers pressing your teeth against the insides of your cheeks. 
your face ran hot, embarrassed at your sudden defeat, your cunt obviously wanting more. 
more, more, more. 
“use your words, bunny, c’mon,” he pressed his forehead against yours, teeth sharp as they barely held back a cruel laugh that was simmering all the way down to his cock. 
“mhm, y-yes,” you were able to mumble out of your lips that were smushed together, a slight nod against his too-tight grip. 
“are you going to be good?” 
without a second to respond, a single buck of his hips as he bruised the sweetest bit of your cervix. you swore he was in your throat, so incredibly full. 
head falling back into the rustled up blankets, one of your legs swung over his broad shoulder, going deeper. 
the moans he rattled out of you were beyond unholy, something you didn’t even think you were capable of. 
your gummy walls sucked him off so well, molded to the shape of him upon entry. 
your body didn’t feel real. each thrust of need, desperation, a year's worth of pent up feelings spilling out at the expense of your sopping wet pussy. 
“s’ fuckin tight my god,”. his tone was downright feral, teeth pinned together as strands of his hair fell onto his forehead. 
he looked so strong, teaching your cells that you belonged to him now. 
“don’t get all- f-fucking hell, shy on me, c-c’mon,”. barely able to process his words, so lost in the high of his cock pounding into you over, and over, and over again, like his damn life depended on it. 
his hand around your throat, fingers closing off the rush of blood to your fuzzy little brain, snapped out of your fucked-out daze. 
“you’re f-f-fucking mine, y-you understand?” the colorful mix of his eyes overtaken by the dark, void of all color as he fell pussy-drunk. 
“do you understand?” his grip got tighter, your eyes rolling back into your skull, the only thing you could focus on was the violent approach of your next climax. 
somehow you forced a meek nod, his grip relaxing enough for the blood to come back through, creaming his length without any warning. 
“s-s- oh my- f-fucking hell- ah!” 
incoherent at best, babbles and whimpers as your legs shook, overstimulation hitting you like a train. 
“there you go, suckin’ me off s’good, such a good girl,”. he didn’t falter once, pace steady and ruthless, leaving you drooling and cock-drunk. 
he titled his head to the ceiling, chest heaving and heart racing, mad at himself for not doing this earlier, but so, so fucking starstruck that he actually got to be inside you. 
you felt him twitch inside you, how his grip tightened on you, you knew he was close despite your drunken state. 
he wanted to fill you up so badly, but he would be fucking damned if he let you off with only two orgasms, he wanted to fuck you downright dumb. 
“got another f’me? i ain’t done with you baby,”. 
“ ‘s too much- s-sammy t-too m-much,” you felt the prick of tears at the corners of your eyes, fingertips buzzing as they dug into your bedding. 
he didn’t care. too focused on the way your tits bounced with each bone-breaking thrust, the sounds you made for him so easily, the way you let him use you. 
“i’m not done with you,” his voice more of a growl, fitting for the sharp ends of his canines and primal nature, walls fluttering around him as if they were begging for punishment. 
pulling your other leg up, a squeal as he somehow hit a whole new world inside of you, stars and colored specks blinding you. 
knees by your temples, the back of your thighs burning as you were folded in two. 
“ha- c’see myself inside ya- f-fuck,”. 
all 9 and a half inches of him swallowed up inside, bottom of your tummy bulging with each slam of his hips on your ass. 
sobbing on his cock, wasted on the lewd squelching of your syrup guiding him in and out, in and out, over and over again. 
his hand somehow managed to press on the bulge he created, your tears streaming down into your hair, drooling babbles as your body short circuited, synapses unable to grasp the sheer stimulus of it all. 
“gonna fill ya up, s-stuff ya full ‘f me,”. the twitching impossible to ignore, the weight of him stuffing you to the brim, met with your fluttering hole. 
pace beginning to falter, the final push needed for you to spill all over him again, body lost in another world as you rode out your third high. 
guttural moans filled the air of your room, hot white ribbons coated your battered walls. stuffing you full, writing every word he wished he would have said sooner deep inside. 
every i love you, i miss you, you’re all i’ve ever wanted, i wrote this song for you, please don’t go, all of it. 
with the spasms of his hips calmed, he let your legs down gently, one at a time. 
color flooding back to his eyes, that soft smile taking over once again. 
his gentle hand wiped away the tear-stains on your face, brushing away the fly-aways of your tousled hair from your sweat-pricked skin. 
still deep inside, still hard, barely heard whimpers as he moved around, he didn’t want a drop to spill out of you. 
“you’re an angel,” he hummed, pressing a few gentle kisses to your forehead, last one planted to the tip of your nose. 
all you could do was giggle, brain so mushy that you didn’t even bother to deny his sweetness. his adoration. 
“let’s get’cha cleaned up, yeah? you did so good for me,”. a few more gentle kisses scattered along your face, satisfied hum at your sugar-coated giggles, the smile uncontrolled on your lips. 
a hiss through his teeth as he slid out of you, a wince of your own at the sudden emptiness, almost feeling wrong. 
he wrapped both arms around you, locking your legs around his torso, lifting you in one swift movement. too fucked-out to even question how he could lift you nearly deadweight, snuggling your face in the crook of his neck the moment you were upright. 
letting him carry you to the bathroom, he flipped the light switch on and set you down gently on the toilet as he fell to his knees to turn the faucet for your bathtub. 
petting your leg as he waited for the water to warm, closing the drain when it was just the way he wanted it. 
“be right back, m’kay?” he kissed the crown of your head, leaving you all alone for the first time in hours. 
 head in your hands, elbows pressed into your aching thighs, trying to process what just happened. 
from a void of breakdown and destruction, to falling apart at the seams willingly, to sobbing on sam’s cock, all too much for your heart to process, for your mind to wrap around. 
“hi pretty,” his hums gentle, crouching down to feed you some water, baby sips. 
“hi,” you felt all shy, his presence all-consuming, giggling near uncontrollably. 
you felt yourself coming down from your high, both highs, drowsy and spacey, but comfortable. 
“so…” he drug out, flush across the bridge of his nose. 
“so?” you mocked playfully, running your fingers through his hair. 
“first….i think you’d look real pretty with a lil’ collar…” he trailed, almost embarrassed. “nothin crazy…just our little secret y’know?” 
the idea had crossed your mind before, but this time it made your swollen pussy twitch despite its battered state. 
his. 
“second….i love you. i always have,”.

No one is more annoying than you tagging your hate. Seeing how you guys act, only Shuggy fans will get my support and other Shanks ships get nothing but my hate. Shuggy fans are truly the only tolerable Shanks shippers. The rest of you need to get your act together or find something else to do because you don’t even understand the story or the characters.
I literally wrote this whole thing about the problems with Shuggy but i got distracted and accidentally closed the app so im just gonna say if you really think that I'm not understanding the point or the story or the characters then you need to reread/rewatch one piece because everything Oda has put out has not been shy or subtle in showing that Buggy is toxic. Buggy stomped and stabbed Luffy's treasure, tried killing him multiple times, then in impel down Luffy forgave and struck a deal with him and Buggy tried to fuck him over again despite acknowledging himself through inner dialogue that Luffy is incredibly trusting and only a monster would betray him, and then shamelessly trying to betray him.
The whole point of his character in Impel down/Marineford is that Buggy is horrible and his karma is that he's forced to help in order to save his own ass since at every corner he's ready to betray, just like Shanks and the Roger Pirates. Shanks tried to be brotherly friends, Buggy felt inferior so he constantly picked fights, The Roger pirates raise Buggy with love, Buggy tries to steal a treasure map and devil fruit so that he can sell the fruit off and go find the treasure for himself and blames Shanks despite the reason Shanks approaches him is to check on Buggy, but Buggy still blamed Shanks despite it being his choice to be an idiot and stuff the fruit in his mouth to hide it while letting go of the map. When the Roger crew disbanded and Roger died Buggy made it about him. He said he was willing to give up "everything" for Shanks or whatever and then Shanks betrayed him and thats the whole reason why Shuggy lovers coddle Buggy and demonize Shanks but Shanks also sacrificed everything basically. He stayed behind for Buggy when Buggy was sick and missed the last of the adventures with his father figure and being able to go to the last island. Shanks sacrifices everything. Buggy was mean to Shanks even before the "betrayal" which was just Shanks saying he didn't want to go for the One Piece.
Then he blames everything on Shanks and leaves Shanks at his most vulnerable time since as the story goes on we're learning more and more that clearly something traumatizing and burdening happened to Shanks that made him give up the One Piece at that time. It was his dream too. He was always so bright and happy and hopeful and he always tried his best yet Buggy was the one who actually betrayed Shanks, running away like a coward because of his inferiority complex when Shanks was doing everything in his power to lift Buggy up. But Buggy doesn't want to be lifted up. No matter how much Shanks tried Buggy always would rather drag Shanks down with him. Now Shanks is alone, he had to go through everything alone and clearly is not okay mentally because of it from his random bouts of melacholy and burden. He longs for some sort of companion but has nothing because Buggy left and he didn't give chase, sacrificing his want for a friend in order to let Buggy leave since Shanks felt that Buggy really must hate him and would be happier leaving, he sacrificed his dominant arm to save Luffy, severely weakening himself, gave what he had left of Roger to Luffy in order to cheer the boy up, another sacrifice. Then you'd think "oh he still has his daughter" and you'd be right, he took care of her when he found her in the chest, sacrificing his youth to take care of a baby on the ship, but he had to leave her. He made himself look like the bad guy to leave her, losing the last bit of compassion in his life.
He took it hard too, Oda drew in a little sbs thing im pretty sure of Shanks despairing over it. Then, canonically, Luffy is Shanks's last hope, for everything. Shanks doesn't have a companion, no little daughter to cheer him up, no lover because he likely doesn't want to bring them into what he has on his shoulders, nothing. Yet Buggy tried to kill that hope, multiple times. And only helped Shanks with Luffy when Shanks had to trick him into it (oh the horror what a devil that redhead/s). Shanks is just a broken Luffy, he was bright and sunny and had hopes but from likely learning about the prophecy or whatever that he was not going to be JoyBoy, so he gave up his dream for the world. All of this. All of these terrible things Shanks has gone through for everyone and everything and how Buggy tries to destroy every single one of it and somehow Shuggy shipper STILL manage to coddle Buggy and treat him like some cute tsundere that was wronged by Shanks and Shanks is the one that needs to chase after Buggy because evil Shanks betrayed him. That Shanks is the stupid longing ex husband that needs his wife back and that he messrd up when Buggy is a terrible friend at the VERY best and an abusive one at worst. That is why i "hate" Shuggy. I don't tag my hate post as Shuggy because i'm some sort of ragebaiter or slanderer trying to take away the happiness that is Shuggy its because I need Shuggy people to realize that the way they portray the ship is so utterly unfair to Shanks. The story goes on and on and you find out more and more about how Shanks sacrificed so much yet you're telling ME that i "don't even understand the story and characters" like the whole dynamic of Buggy isn't that he's horrible and its funny to see him get karma while somehow surviving and that Shanks's role is to be the sacrificial lamb to everything while having no one to take atleast some of the burden off.
Shuggy people and the way they portray it is toxic. Its not just they treat Shanks like the longing ex husband for the comedy, every artwork and fic and story i've seen its always Buggy needing to be apologized to and they're serious in that being the good and what should happen option and not, i don't know, the literal bad guy abusive person being the one to go "oh shit i need to change my ways and I have to apologize and help the friend I abandoned". No its always just adding more shit to Shanks's already about to break apart plate. It's maddening seeing it. It has so much potential to be an amazing ship that can explore the relationship between someone that used to be abusive learning that they arent the victim and atoning while finding love in eachother's comfort but instead its just victim blaming 101. Shanks could end up fucking dying horribly in One Piece while Buggy watches and goes "serves you right" and somehow Shuggy lovers would go "oh nonono its actually just him being a cute tsundere and look he feels bad deep inside so its all forgived and Shanks just dies ig idk anyway poor Buggy." There is so much wrong with the ship and how its treated that all that shit about shuggy haters trying to debunk it using some shitty half assed excuse like its "emotional incest" when theres so many other problems is if i looked at a history book and was like "Yeah the colonizers of the America were definitely wrong because their wigs were weird" like thats completely insignificant! Shuggy and the way its treated as if Buggy is the wronged one and always the loved and longed after while he has his poor hurt heart closed off from years of trauma like abandoning his friend and pillaging and killing innocent civilians while using their wealth to flaunt and pretend like he's big and strong.
Shuggy should not be a fix it via victim blaming Shanks and treating him like some dumb dog that loves Buggy so much it should be using the fact that Buggy has an inferiority complex and that he longs to be in the spotlight that he slowly learns that theres a reason why he's at the bottom. That is my issue. I'm not ignoring the story i am looking st the story with everything i possibly can because I even used to be kinda alrighy with Shuggy. It is literally now that we are learning more about Shanks and that im rereading One piece and remembering how horrible Buggy is that I'm realizing how horribly its treated. I mean look I started this off that I would try and summarize it but its so hard to summarize when theres so much wrong. I'm okay with shipping, i really am, but the ship is toxic, and the "fluffy" stuff is even toxic because its just making Shanks's misery worse. I need yall to realize that. This is not mindless hate.

The Leash, Ada Limón — from wonwoo
a jww x ada limon poetry alignment with “I want to say: Don’t die.” and “Don’t die, I say,” SHOULD BE A PUNISHABLE OFFENSE. WHAT DO U MEANNNNN.

(intrusive thought: apocalypse au jww)
You Do Not Have To Love Me, Leonard Cohen — from jihoon
LJH AND LEONARD COHEN DO U WANT ME TO DIEEEEEE. imagine a songwriter gifting you a poem from another songwriter I WANT TO DIE (2). the title alone is so jihoon. “while I am still / the many men who love you” oh my ljh you are both one of a kind and a man of multitudes. “I prayed that you would love me / and that you would not love me” STOP IT RNNN!!!! why is this so in the mood for love coded.

The Quiet World, Jeffrey McDaniel — from minghao
in my head this is the lost in translation couple coded u cannot argue w me. the title alone?!?!!?!? hao saving his words for his most precious person…I rmr thinking of him as the most mysterious member even at the start so this is just Doing Something for me… being gifted a poem by hao with “I slowly whisper I love you / thirty-two and a third times.” (firm believer that his last word would be YOU—not i or love but YOU!!!! bc u are his love [wails])…… oh my xu minghao you are so dear to me…..your love is as steadfast as the sunrise
A Walk Round the Park, Sandra Lim — from seungkwan
“I laugh, because the pleasure was earned // yet vouchsafed, / and I made room for what was dead past and what // yet didn’t // exist.” MAN. what a line for bsk ,, oh to love and fast forward to the good part, knowing that you have endured the hardships!! “I was not always kind, but I // was clear.” IS SOOOO HIM !!! #1 communicator bsk (who will always try to be kind but will not always succeed, but oh he tries to clarify himself always)
Guilty of Dust, Frank Bidart — from vernon
LISTENNNN i love the thought of Vernon gravitating toward contemporary poetry—esp the more experimental ones in format. AND THIS POEM CHOICEEEEEEE!! kae I love your brain. “forgetful of my very self so often I / desired to die to myself to live in them” is this not chwe vernon coded. the thought of vernon gifting WHAT YOU LOVE IS YOUR FATE and you are each other’s love (and therefore fate) bye I rly cant do this.
First Date, Megan Williams — from chan
A first date poem for chan are u kidding me. also the imagery of this is reminding me of that one time he was on a show n he met up w and drove (?) a carat as part of a segment and . im not okay. “The bridges in this city are famous & / terrible. My love is too.” + “All my / life, I’ve been pivoting to emptiness.” LEE CHAN GET BEHIND ME…… but the thought of chan gifting you a poem w “I want the warmth of your gaze to / convince me that living is worth the / discomfort.” + “…is a small price to pay for a hand in mine.” is SOOOOO…!!!! love in the every day…to bear discomfort, not to say it disappears with a lover's presence, but simply that discomfort is made worth it.....dont touch me rn.
svt & love poems they'd give you.

★ footnotes: decided to marry the two halves of my heart this valentine's: svt and poetry. this is unashamedly inspired by the brilliant @heartepub, whose constant intersection of svt x poetry inspires me to no end. viv, you are an entire poem in itself; i would give you all the pretty words in the world, if i could. + happy carat day, everyone!

seungcheol ★ Isn't Every Love Poem an Unfinished Love Poem?, Cristin O'Keefe Aptowicz
Praise the caps of your shoulders, my lips pressed against them.
Praise the poem I was trying to finish when you showed up
at my door.

jeonghan ★ If I Had Three Lives, Sarah Russell
If I had three lives, I'd marry you in two. The other? Perhaps that life over there at Starbucks, sitting alone, writing—a memoir, maybe a novel or this poem. […] I'd walk the beach at sunrise, find perfect shell spirals and study pockmarks water makes in sand. And I'd wonder sometimes if I'd ever find you.

joshua ★ True Love, Sharon Olds
I quietly call to you and you come and hold my hand and I say I cannot see beyond it. I cannot see beyond it.

junhui ★ February & my love is in another state, José Olivarez
stay with me. while the sky is still golden, hold the ladder so i can climb, & from the highest rung, i can scrape away a drizzle of light to wear around my neck. alone
is the star i follow. in love & in solitude: alone is the home with the warmest glow.

soonyoung ★ Variations on the Word Love, Margaret Atwood
This word is far too short for us, it has only four letters, too sparse to fill those deep bare vacuums between the stars that press on us with their deafness. It's not love we don't wish to fall into, but that fear. this word is not enough but it will have to do.

wonwoo ★ The Leash, Ada Limón
But sometimes, I swear I hear it, the wound closing like a rusted-over garage door, and I can still move my living limbs into the world without too much pain, can still marvel at how the dog runs straight toward the pickup trucks break-necking down the road, because she thinks she loves them, because she’s sure, without a doubt, that the loud roaring things will love her back,

jihoon ★ You Do Not Have To Love Me, Leonard Cohen
I wrote all these songs for you I burned red and black candles shaped like a man and a woman I married the smoke of two pyramids of sandalwood I prayed for you I prayed that you would love me and that you would not love me

seokmin ★ Watching you talk on the phone, I consider the empty space around atoms–, Rhiannon McGavin
To make my birthday cake from scratch, you wouldn’t just plant strawberries: you’d create another universe. I wanted you
warm and close as fresh laundry and here we are, Tuesday. Of course you love me, you’re wearing one of my socks.

mingyu ★ O Small Sad Ecstasy of Love, Anne Carson
I did a road trip all over my mind and heart and there you were kneeling by the roadside with your little toolkit fixing something.
Give me a world, you have taken the world I was.
Tumblr media
minghao ★ The Quiet World, Jeffrey McDaniel
Late at night, I call my long distance lover, proudly say I only used fifty-nine today. I saved the rest for you.
When she doesn’t respond, I know she’s used up all her words, so I slowly whisper I love you thirty-two and a third times.
Tumblr media
seungkwan ★ A Walk Round the Park, Sandra Lim
We did not say much to each other but
we grinned, because this love was so good you sucked the
rib bones
and I licked my fingers like a cat.
Now I’m omniscient. I’m going to skip past
the hard
parts that go on for a very long time.
Tumblr media
vernon ★ Guilty of Dust, Frank Bidart
the voice in my head said
LOVE IS THE DISTANCE BETWEEN YOU AND WHAT YOU LOVE
WHAT YOU LOVE IS YOUR FATE
Tumblr media
chan ★ First Date, Megan Williams
I want the warmth of your gaze to convince me that living is worth the discomfort. That other people can like me. That the bottlenecked bridge full of squealing tires & suckers who can't merge is a small price to pay for a hand in mine.
