General Mizu headcanons -Mizu x fem!reader -sfw and nsfw headcanons + my thoughts :], kinda long? but aye, more content -pls, reminder these are my takes, and I would love to hear your in the comments <3
-comments and reblogs are appreciated <3
Sfw:
took her awhile to open up fully to you. Like about everything- probably hide her fav food from you too
speaking of food, she probably is a terrible cook and would love if you can cook for her
I can imagine Mizu burning a pot of water
I tried to do my research and look into this, but I think Mizu is about 5'4
if you're shorter than her, she'll definitely have a confidence boost and feel she has to protect you always- she already does but...you're short and tiny...so she must
If you're taller, she's putty in your hands when you two are alone but she will still kick someone's ass for you
If you're not trained in the martial arts or any good with swords, she'll teach you
If Mizu is teaching you before you two are official, she'll be rougher and stricter with her teaching. She wants you to be the best and have a good chance to learn to protect yourself
Now if she is teaching you after you two are dating, she'll still be strict but definitely a bit more gentle
"Do it again...You almost had it, try again I know you can do this"
Nicknames for you? I feel she would mostly call you by your name, but she would also call you "my pearl" or "my dove"
Pls play with her hair plsplsplsplsplsplspls
She's a sucker for a massage due to her battles and training but only from you
but!!!!!
The first time you saw her without her male persona/ identity sent her in panic mode. You knew her as this strong, tough masculine man...but here you are, happening to stumble upon her wearing nothing and seeing her...lady parts
She already started to develop feelings for you by that time and so have you, but at the knowledge you think she's a boy. Gay stuff is already a 'no-no' to a lot of people, so would it be a 'no-no" for you??
of course not- doesn't matter if they're male or female, it's still Mizu at the end of the day
once you accept her, she truly feels seen for once
This woman will and always lay down her life for you.
She'd probably die then come back to life for you cause she loves you that much
I do feel she would be distant in the beginning. We all know how her last marriage went...She doesn't want to be hurt again
Once you show her you're in for the long run, she'll become lovable and clingy
LET HER BE FEMININE PLS PLS
She barely got to explore her feminine side with Mikio (rat bastard) cause of what happened
Dress her up and make her feel pretty <3
I have a feelign she can be really childish when comfortable with you- play wrestle with her to burn off some energy
She will want to duel with you, but never lets it go too far
If she ever pulls that same shit she did with Mikio, and she has the sword to your throat...I feel she will get flashbacks and get nervous how you'll react
but is soon pulled out of those memories when you laugh and say she wins and you kiss her <3
Nsfw
now the yummy part lol
IDC SHE'S A SWITCH
no one will change my mind, no one could ever think of changing my mind
In the Edo period of Japan, sex toys were there to use and have fun. Now, I actually looked it up and ruined my web history for this because of the shunga I saw
STRAP ON- either Mizu using it on you or you using it on her, either way it's a good time
She definitely can and will be rough and dominate. She's used to be taking control to getting what she wants
Doesn't mean she can't be soft and sensual, you are her love after all, and sex is something for both to enjoy. She would love to just be soft with you
She will spank that ass, idc
Now, like I said, I actually looked a lot of this stuff up...
Double sided dildo for the both of you to use. For her, it's almost embarrassing cause you are seeing her reactions but she also LOVES this since it's so intimate to her, so hold her hand while you two do it
Going off the last one, I feel she would be trying to cover her face or her mouth sometimes...don't let her
With that one episode, we know she's loud and her eyes roll back...it's canon...so hit her with that dumb dick and make her roll her eyes back
Tie her up...that's all
Her fingers are long and slender, good for fingering your cunt and rubbing your clit
Loves having you in her lap and fingering you late at night, especially if there are other people around. Gives her the chance to cover your mouth and whisper in your ear to tease you
"You like that?...You like the fact anyone could catch us right now, and they'd see my fingers fucking this pussy..?â
Dw you'll give her the same treatment
When you finger her, she's whiny, holding onto your other hand tightly
Praise her breast- whether you have bigger breast or not, still show love to her peaches
Kiss them, suck on them, whatever..love on them
I don't think she would ever consider sharing you with another person like ever
I can imagine her talking a big game, but your first time? Sheâs a wreck, she wants everything to be perfect
Yeah technically she's not a virgin but she doesn't want to mess anything up with you
Favorite position? I think she likes taking you in missionary but likes to be bent over when she subbing
After you give her sum backshots, pls give her the softest aftercare
She will be clingy after, so let her cling to you like a koala
In the end, Mizu is the best girlfriend boyfriend ever <3

Hewwo there! Its me, again (:') anyways-!! Im here to request smth- CC!Wilbur and other CC's (you can choose.) With a reader who got pretty Bad scars (from Shark attack, plz i Just need.)
But- reader still loves sharks! :') she doesnt blame them- it's not their fault
They're getting made fun of becuz of the scars, Just that- i think-
LOVE YOUR WRITINGS!!!
Omg hiii! It's nice to see you again ^^
I had to think of who I wanted the other CC! to be and I'm gonna do Badboyhalo just cause he's not requested as much as I'd like him to be and I want to write more about him >:3
Hope you enjoy <3
Wilbur Soot and Badboyhalo reacting to you having a shark bite
Click here before requesting, please <3
â Wilbur Soot â
I feel like he'd find out because one day y'all decided to go to the beach
So you took your shirt off and BAM there it was, the bite mark on your stomach
Wilbur was caught off guard and quickly asked you what happened
You told him about your encounter with a shark, you were too careless and it ended up biting you
Wilbur found it pretty cool, the fact that even tho this happened to you, you still seemed to have an undying love towards the animal
As you continued the day at the beach you both started feeling the eyes on y'all
Whispers would start as you walked by anybody and Wilbur took a notice of that
He didn't intend to do anything about it because he couldn't really tell the whole beach to shut up, and you seemed to let the whispers fly over your head
But the last straw was when a group of girls approached Wilbur while you went to buy some snacks
"I don't know what a guy like you is doing with someone like them, but if you want to leave just do it lol" "Yeah, we can cover for you. If you stay longer you might actually end up having the same scar as them" "Maybe you can hang with us"
Wilbur took a deep breath before turning towards the group "I would be more embarrassed to hang around you girls than with them. Cause, y'know, in my opinion that scar is beautiful and shows that they're storng. If you all ended up being bitten by a shark y'all would probably be bitten in half. Now THATS a sight I'd love to see"
Shocked from the mans answer, they all groaned and ran away
You, who had come back a bit early, saw the whole scene and were very happy. Actually you were over the moon!
You leaned towards Wilbur's cheek and left a small kiss, causing the man to jump in surprise
"W-what was that for?!?" He exclaimed, his face was either red from blushing or from the sun
"I heard everything you said. That was very kind of you Will"
â Badboyhalo â
You and Bad happened to be talking about you guys' past, as a way of getting to know more about eachtoher
You brought up the time you were bitten by a shark, showing the bite marks that laid on your right leg
Bad went in a full "OMG THAT MUST'VE HURT-" mode
But you assured him that you were ok and that it was your fault for being careless
"Y'know... you're the first person I've told about this in a while. In the past a lot of people made fun of me for "being an idiot and throwing myslef at the shark"so I stopped talking about it...." you mumbled the last part
Bad looked at you sympathetically and pulled you into a hug "I think the bite is cool! And it's very brave of you to not be scared of sharks after what happened"
He caressed the marks softly, amazed by how deep the bite actually was
As he looked back at you he noticed just how close to your face he was and he went in another panic mode
Which made you giggle and fall more for the muffin man

���đđ đđđđđ đđđđđđđđ đđ đ˘đđ đđđ˘đđđ đđđđđđđ đđ đđđđđđ đ đđđđ đđđđđ˘đđđ đđđ đđĄđđđ
requested by anonie:Â hi if youâre taking requests could you do an NCT Dream reaction to you crying while studying for exams because youâre stressed? thank you !
Mark Lee
my boi understands the STRESS
he debuted like 6 times and he has more comebacks and schedules than he can count bby is so overworked sometimes  °(ŕ˛Đ´ŕ˛ă)
i think youâre probably each otherâs safe places
whenever mark catches sight of you he just buries himself in your arms and all his stress and worries melt away as he breathes in your familiar scent (.ăĽâĄďšâĄ)ăĽ.
your hugs? his best medicine
so when he finds you trying to muffle your cries in your hands, hunched over open textbooks, a mess of pens and littered papers around you
his heart breaks just a lil (*>_<*)
why didnât you come to him?? or at least call him??? donât you trust him?? is he part of the reason of your tears???? what if-
âmark?â ༶ඬŕźŕśŹŕźś
but as your meek voice calls for him he decides that questions can wait
you are his one and only priority
he dashes to your side and engulfs you in his armsâ=âĄÎŁ(ăĽďżŁ ³ ̄)ăĽ
âitâs okay baby, youâll be fine, iâm here, iâm with youâ
you just hide your face in his chest and allow yourself to break into sobs that wrench markâs poor lil heart while mark caresses your back and head
âjust let it all out baby, iâm right here, iâll always be hereâ(ŕšÂ´â˘Đ´ ⢠`ŕš)
he keeps murmuring comforting words as you slowly run out of tears
once you calm down enough to explain the reason of your breakdown to him, he just presses a kiss to your forehead á(´ďš`á)
âhow about you take a rest for tonight and weâll talk tomorrow and iâll find a way to help you through this, hm? does that sound good?â
you make him promise heâll stay with you for this night he has no objections (áŚăâĄâš)ăâĄ
he ends up playing his guitar for you with your head on his lap asfdsfksf until you fall asleep and then spoons you after tucking you in
his softness for you doesnât prevent him from having a serious discussion with you to make sure you know you can always come to him for anything and then ends up helping you study might end up asking for help as well _(T-T*)
Huang Renjun
this boi seems really chill while at home
so iâd say that he mostly minds his business if youâre busy with school work like heâs probably in a corner painting or sumthinâ the lil artsy fairy that he is (â´â˝`â)*â˛ďž*
he does check up on you from time to time to make sure that youâre... you know... alive and breathing?? lol fun times huh
but still, silent comfort IS your love language âŠ(︜â˝ď¸ś)âŠ
so he kinda assumes that you ALREADY know heâs there for you at any time anywhere in any way you may ever need him
so when he hears a muffled sob from behind the door youâre studying in?
his heart BREAKS ę°ŕšËÍęłËÍŕšęąďž*ďžĚĽ
but he also doesnât want to stress you out even more or scare you so he slowly enters the room to find you hunched over your desk
he hesitates for a moment as his chest just clenches in hurt while he watches your shoulders shake with muffled whimpers ËË(ááŠáâ)
so he walks up to you and lays a gentle hand on your shoulder
he waited for a moment to make sure that youâre comfortable with his presence in such vulnerable moments
and the he just ENGULFS you in a firm embrace and you FINALLY get the chance to ground yourself as you let out all of the pent up frustration in the arms of the person you trust the most (ŕšâ︾âŕš)
he just pats your head and you bury your face in his chest and you just â¨melt⨠into each other
i donât think heâd say much tbh (´°Ď°`)
thereâs a silent mutual understanding that all you need right now is someone- him to lean on when youâre too tired to hold yourself upright
as you start calming down he presses a kiss to your head before speaking softly but firmly
âyouâre taking a break, come on letâs eat and then we can have a lazy evening for onceâ ξ-(âďžÂ´â)â
âbut-â
âoh we can finally try out the fluffy blanket we bought together last weekâ
he AINâT TAKING NO FOR ANSWER!!! ( ̄Ď ̄)
you spend the evening wrapped up in each other under your blanket with a forgotten movie playing in the background while renjun hums a lullabyâs tune in your ear
Lee Jeno
he has a sixth sense for you
you canât get away WITH ANYTHING ¯\_ŕźźá´źŮÍá´źŕź˝_/ÂŻ
you stub a toe: aw frick-
jeno, thousands of km away in the middle of rolling his hips into another dimension during practice: somethingâs wrong ಠ_ŕ˛
so i think he might notice even before you that youâre kinda breaching your limit
but ba(r)bie isnât sure how to approach you without offending you since youâre kinda irritable because of the stress ofc he doesnât blame you
so if he fails to stop you before your breakdown heâs gonna blame himself for sure tho so make sure to reassure him once youâre stable heâs gonna keep a VERY watchful eye over you ( â ă â )Â
heâs 100% READY to be there for you!!!!!
he has fluffy blankets, your favourite sweets and snacks, your preferred take out place on speed dial in case youâre hungry AND your comfort show prepared (â˘Ěoâ˘Ě)ŕ¸
what he isnât prepared tho?
his OWN heart cracking at the sight of your pain and exhaustion (ŕ˛Đ´ŕ˛)Â
he LITERALLY CANâT stop the small whine building up in his chest as he strides over to your side for support
so when you wrap yourself around him like a lil koala, trembling in his hold and muttering through tears that itâs just too much-
his ULTIMATE protectiveness kicks in FULL MODE (ಢâąŕ˛˘ ・)
he just scoops you up and burrito wraps you into the gigantic mound of blankets already prepared for you while pressing a lingering kiss to your forehead i promised iâd make it his trademark so here ;)
he *dashes* to bring over all of the snacks AND is already on the phone if you decided you wanted something to eat
basically bf jeno didnât come to play â * ರ Ě̯ ರ * â
spends the rest of the night literally PAMPERING you in anything you need
and most importantly... LOTS OF KITHES AND CUDDLES!!!!( *ÂŻ ³¯*)âĄ
his baby deserves a chill and lovely night and heâs gonna provide exactly that and the absolute best for you :<
also jeno will gather all of his remaining braincells to help you the next of the day he really seems a smart kid in my opinion
Lee Donghyuck
hyuck is a LOVELY person donât get me wrong (ŕšâĄââĄŕš)
but heâs also a tease so he might unintentionally push you to your limits with a few remarks
poor babe really didnât realize you were going through it
so just imagine his panic once you just burst into tears after what should have been a harmless teasing from him (âŹâ˝â˝ â° âžâž Đ â˝â˝ â° âžâž)
âba-babe? what happened, did i go too far?? iâm so sorry my love, i just-â
he keeps on rambling and you just cry even harder cuz come on hyuck is just such a thoughtful boyfriend
âiâm really sorry y/n, please donât cry, iâll do ANYTHING-â ي(´Đ` ;)Űś
you try to explain to him that heâs not at fault for your breakdown
obviously itâs not really comprehensible but itâs enough for hyuck to understand once he hears the words âstressâ and âexhaustedâ
he simply embraces you as tight as he can and reassures you that humans have their own limits (ăŁâââź)ăŁ
and that taking a break doesnât invalidate your hard work and dedication
he understands how overworking can affect a person so he knows how to handle the situation
he proposes taking a hot bath once youâve calmed down and he adds extra bubbles and a really nice smelling body wash (âŻâ§ââ§)âŻ
and after that- YOUâRE ON BED REST!! no excuses
if you protest? you wouldnât dare
stops you with kisses all over your face before fully shutting you up with a soft but firm kiss on your lips oâ¤*ď˝3´*âo
you spend the entire rest of the day restrained in his hugs
you really scared him so he became a lil lot clingyÂ
need to go to the bathroom? he INSISTS to piggyback you there since âyou need all the rest you can possibly getâ (âŞď˝ĄâŞ)・・・
but i reckon you canât complain since you have the chance to spend some quality time with your also busy boyfriend
my boy will also go to the ends of the world in order to help you the next day to study whether that means burning his own brain or gathering half of nct and his manager to get everything done in time (ŕšâ˘Ěă
â˘Ě)Ů
Na Jaemin
itâs literally NO SURPRISE when i say that heâs PROTECTIVEx1000000 of his loved ones (ŕšâ˘Ěă
â˘Ě)Ůâ§
so why would you even bother to hide anything from him??
itâs LITERALLY no use
heâs a very very doting person and he keeps tabs on you no matter what, sometimes even uncounciously
and if heâs not there physically? NO PROBLEM!!
texts and calls between he two of you are a very common occurence bubs just wants to make sure youâre well and happy (ËĚľá´ËĚľ)
so unless youâre a top class at acting, good luck in trying to play off your stress and tiredness
but letâs say that due to busy schedules and different timetables it somehow gets past him
babe will be so heartbroken (ŕšÂ´â˘Đ´ ⢠`ŕš)
his worry topples over as he freezes in your doorway for a moment at the sight of your defeated form and tear-stained papers
BUT he does a good job in keeping his composure because he canât risk letting his emotions get the best of him when you need him ( â˘ĚĎâ˘Ě )
so he just trudges up to you and SMOTHERS you in the tightest hug possible, tucking your head in his shoulder so you could cry freely hidden away from the rest of the world
he coos a few words here and there, encouragements, compliments, reassurement that âyouâre more than enough, you just need to take a moment to relax and breatheâ â§Ë°Ë¡*Îľ-(ŕšËĚÎľËĚŕš )
otherwise, heâll leave the talk for the next day when youâre rested both physically AND mentallyÂ
after you calm down he helps you put away all your school work you wouldnât dare oppose him on this for the rest of the day
we all know whatâs coming up iâm sorry
COMFORT FOOD!!!! (ďž^ăŽ^)ďž*:ăťďžâ§
he seats you on a kitchen stool while he cooks whatever you need at the moment, anything his baby wants
honestly he just adapts to whatever you need atm
cuddles in silence? works for him!! wanna ramble? there to listen!! want netflix and chill??? absolutely!!!!
Zhong Chenle
sooo from what iâve gathered heâs not exactly emotional???
but also have you seen this absolute cutie when jisung was crying at the dream show?? babe was trying so hard to comfort his bff but he also seemed uh.. a bit awkward a bit? in a cute way tho!! (ŕšâáˇŕąŞâáˇ
ŕš)
but i do think heâll falter once he catches sight of your state!!!!
so many mental debates too!! (ŕšâ˛Â°ď¸żÂ°ŕš)
âtheyâre hunched over, did they fall asleep? wait shaking?? is it cold in here????... fuck no was that a sob?? do i... do i go over to comfort them? but how like do i hug or do i talk or..? what if they break up with me??? shit what have i done recently?? i washed the dishes, i cleaned the dog poop, i took out the trash.. it canât be thisâ
my boy is going through THE CRISIS OF HIS LIFEÂ (âáâŕš )
so he reluctantly walks up to you determined to help
but when he reaches you? *brain fart*
ends up patting your head and rubbing your back, but his touch manages to ground you without overwhelming you even further (ăŁâââź)ăŁ
if you end up pulling him into a hug tho, he wonât hesitate to hold you
while comforting you he finally notices your open notebooks filled with messy writing
he feels weirdly relieved that youâre not breaking up with him and neither is it something *tragic*  â˘(âďšâ)â˘
heâll let you cry it out before he asks if youâd like some help with your school work he asked fans to send their maths homework so he must be a nerd enough to be able to help you too
but youâre probably too drainedďźĂĎĂďźÂ to do anything so you two just settle for a cuddle session under a mountain of blankets
and daegal therapy!!!!!(â§ââŚ) who probably loves you more than chenle and he ends up whining jokingly about it
chenle will probably focus on lifting up your mood with jokes and stories and heâd do anything to cheer you up
he might try to spoil you tooÂ
and heâs not letting you refuse the ton of food he orders since âyou deserve to fill up your batteriesâ ~~ćŚ_(-Ď-ď˝ď˝Ą)
iâm sorry for your tummies after the ammount of sweets you shared
Park Jisung
ah nctâs certified crybaby(lovingly)
might just start crying with you because if you cry he cries tooÂ
i honestly see him a bit panicky in a delicate situation like this once where he has to deal with *emotions* (・´>Đ´<)ăŁĺ˝Ąâ
so he watches from a safe distance at first
literally jisung.exe has shut down
but then poor kid starts feeling guilty about just watching you suffer without helping and comforting you but heâs kinda scared that heâs only gonna make it worse (ââĐââ)
âcome on park jisung think!!! what would-... what WOULD JAEMIN DO!!â
*cue lighbulb going off above his head*
cue calling jaemin and getting scolded for being on the phone with him instead of being by your side but still giving his precious baby advice
jisung probably comes up with a speech before approaching you heâs nervous okay? âŕźź Ď â¸ Ď ŕź˝â
he lays a hand on your head, gently caressing you and just as he takes a breath to start his speech, you just look up to him with THE kicked puppy eyes ༼ 㤠â ⸠â ༽㤠and jisung is A GONERę°áâă
żâáęąÂ
he MELTS into a puddle of uwus and just leans into you, opting for silent comfort and thatâs how he found out that cuddles>>>>>>words
he kinda babbles a little while holding you words are hard ya know
he kinda rambles after you calm down too so now you have to calm him down youâre both messes but youâre cute so
so what is the most efficient way to shut him up? peck his lips!!!!
and as he melts into your hold he remembers that âwait!! iâm the one supposed to comfort them!!!!â (â˘Ěoâ˘Ě)ŕ¸
so he throws his nerves out the window for a moment and just cups his entire world your face in his hands and pecks your all over your face
you end up watching some compilations with kitties or something on both your phones untill your batteries die so then you switch to another device gen z behaviourÂ
he also probably gets a call from jaemin too and you figure out that your puss of a boyfriend had to call his friend in order to help you
so you give him that look <(ď˝^´)>
letâs say heâs taking you out for brunch the next day AND helping you with your school workÂ

Falling like the starsâ¨
Pairing: Alive! Luke Patterson x Fem Reader
Summary: Luke and Y/N never got to be a thing. Whatever they had ended abruptly when she settled on someone with far more status than the aspiring guitarist. Months later, now single, Luke entangles her in a scheme to make Sunset Curve more popular. The only thing she needs to do is fake date him for 2 weeks.
Songs used: Holy Ground by Taylor Swift, Loved You First by One Direction and Falling Like The Stars by James Arthur.
High school is a world by itself. It has its own system and everyone moves through it. It is something that although it is not discussed, everyone knows. Including the three members of Sunset Curve, who are lying in the yard trying to find a solution to their latest problem.
"We need more people to support our music. If we can't get this little school to support us, how are we going to fill clubs or sign with a label?â Reggie wonders aloud to himself, no matter how hard they try, they can't get the Los Feliz student body to listen to their band.
âWe should have thought about it before, Reg. Now we're just the problem kids who most likely won't finish school. Why would they come to see us at those seedy little clubs when they can go show off at football games.â Luke stands up suddenly after Alex words, one of those huge smiles that comes out when he has a really bad idea on his face.
âWell it seems that the solution is easy, boys. We have to make them see us on the same level as those jocks.â
âOh yeah, and how are we going to do that, genius?â Alex fiddles with his hands as he rests his head on Reggie, both tired of not being able to come even close to fulfilling their dream.
Luke points to the nearest post, on which there are at least 5 posters to support the homecoming king and queen.
âReally? Do you think someone would vote for you? Before all those star athletes who also have a cheerleader to back them up? You basically have just us and I don't think I can do one of those tricks.â
âWeâll think of something. Winning that stupid thing would put us directly in the top of the pyramid. Weâll find a way, we always do.â Before anyone can respond, some screaming and commotion can be heard.
âSavannah is accusing Y/N to mess with her man! Run, they are in the hall!" students mention as they start running to watch the discussion.
âOh god, Y/N. Iâll better go and see if I can help her somehow.â Alex gets up and Reggie begins to follow him, but not before turning to make sure Luke is following too. The guitarist makes an irritated face but ends up walking behind his friends.
From the moment they enter the main hall they can hear the screeches of probably the most popular girl in school, Savannah Miller. One of those typical unbearable girls who for some reason always reach the top of the elite in schools despite treating everyone badly.
Y/N Y/L is on the other side of the discussion, she looks calm and even bored. The first thing Luke digests from Savannah's words is that she thinks Y/N was making out with her idiot of a boyfriend during third period. What's interesting about the situation is that Diego cheated on Y/N with Savannah maybe a week and a half ago and had been dating her ever since.
But that's not Y/N's style, no matter how angry she is.
Luke knows her well enough, or so he wants to believe. She was always good friends with Alex and Reggie, and her relationship with them remained strong over the years despite how unstable and fleeting her relationship with the guitarist was.
He's never going to admit how deeply he felt for her. How much it screwed him up that just when he finally began to believe they could be something else, she completely walked away from his life so she could date the man that would end up cheating on her just because he looked more promising at the time. Rich, popular, the quarterback of the football team, the âperfect guyâ she said to the boys.
But hey, that's past.
Luke looks up to meet Y/N's eyes on him. In the moment she realizes she was caught, she sneakily turns to Alex, who is just inches from the guitarist and smiles at him.
âAre you actually smiling? You think this is funny?â The girl looks furious, but she's smart enough not to make this a battle of strength.
âI already told you, Savannah. It wasnât me.â
âI can count, Y/N. Neither you nor Diego were in class."
And thatâs when it hits him. The possibility of getting to the top of the pyramid in front of him. Because maybe Y/N is not the most popular, but it is undoubtedly one of the most loved by everyone. Intelligent, caring, beautiful, talented. And she certainly has the status after dating Diego Hernandez for one semester. No one had managed more than 3 months with him and the guitarist thinks that was a good sign that that idiot is not a good idea but well, it wasnât his choice.
Luke begins to walk towards the center of the circle, Alex tries to stop him but cannot catch his arm in time. Both girls turn to see him surprised, but neither says anything.
"You can go find culprits elsewhere, Y/N was busy with me at the time. You can ask whoever you want and they'll tell you that I wasn't in class during third period either."
Of course, he wasn't there because the trio got into Reggie's old truck to get some hotdogs but no one has to know that.
His hand goes to take her firmly by the hip, just like all those nights that now only remain as memories. He is looking at every inch of her face, searching for her reaction, and is surprised by the naturalness with which the girl accepts the gesture. As if his hand belongs there. And maybe, just maybe, it does.
âDo you really want me to believe this?â Savannah asks, clearly annoyed.
âY/N and Patterson? Thereâs just no way in hell. Câmon babe, heâs just pathetic, you could do better.â Diego says out loud as he approaches the scene in the middle of Y/N and Savannah.
There's something about the disgruntled way they both said it that makes Luke want to prove that a girl like her could want him. He doesnât know how to distinguish if it is pride or insecurity but at the moment he is not interested.
He's barely going to open his mouth to defend himself when Y/N starts talking. "No. You can speak as badly as you want of me but you're not going to bring Luke into this."
Luke lets go of her so he can step back a few inches and see her from a better angle. Sheâs definitely not calm anymore. Her face looks altered and she is undoubtedly in protective mode. She turns to see him when she feels his hand leave her body but he offers her his hand and she intertwines it between her fingers without hesitation. At this rate she is taking control of the situation so he is going to let her continue and try to achieve his goal along the way.
âI know you need a partner to have any hope of winning the crown, but choosing Patterson is a desperate move.â
And thatâs his cue. "If my baby wants that crown I will get it for her. It's that easy.â
âWhat? I do-â At that moment Luke panics and pulls her by the hand that they have intertwined and with the other holds her face while bringing their lips together. When he reacts to what he is doing he is afraid that Y/N will push him in front of everyone but to his surprise she kisses him back instantly, releasing his hand to bring him closer to the neck.
The kiss is passionate and almost desperate, but it only lasts a few seconds since a voice brings them back.
"This feels like deja vu." Reggie whispers to Alex, they both walked during the discussion towards the circle and are so close that Luke and Y/N heard him clearly.
âWell, we already clarified that she was not with your boyfriend so, Iâll take my girl. It was a pleasure, we should repeat this another day... said no one ever." Luke takes her hand and leads her to the nearest empty living room, Reggie and Alex locking the door behind him.
âWhat the hell was that crown bullshit? Why did you even cover for me? What are you up to? At least tell me is fun... or that includes you shirtless.â She jokes, a cheeky smile spreads in Lukeâs face.
âI need a favor and thought youâll appreciate an alibi.â She raises her eyebrow in reflex.
âWhy would I help you, Lucas?â Luke can only think of how she makes a name as simple and boring as Lucas sound so sexy when she says it. Is incredible.
âCut the act, beautiful. We both know you've never been able to resist me.â Y/N laughs amused at the boyâs sassiness. She won't admit it but she missed his eyes on her. She missed the way he uses that cocky stupid voice that melts her when he wants something. How he gets closer with each sentence, or his lips on her mouth.
Before she can counter attack, Alex stands in front of the guitarist raising his hands. âI know heâs an idiot, but we really need your help, Y/N. If we want Sunset Curve to gain popularity we have to start here, and this is our last year. Gaining popularity among the elite of the school would help us a lot.â
âWe are getting desparate.â Reggie adds, a sad smile on his face.
âAnd pretending I made out with Luke in third period and getting to be homecoming dance queen and king helps you... why?â
âThat crown is literally a test of popularity and status. It would put Luke on the same level as the popular kids like Savannah and Diego. People would be more interested in Sunset Curve after that. For now, for them we are only three good for nothing that one day will not appear around here again. You heard yourself that those two didn't think Luke was good enough."
Her face flushes with anger as soon as she remembers the contemptuous tone of voice they used to refer to Luke. If they hadn't been in the middle of the hall, she probably would have said a lot more than she did. That single comment is enough to make her decide, so without thinking Y/N asks âWhat do you need me to do?â
âJust play perfect couple with Luke until homecoming dance. Then you are queen and king, Sunset Curve gets the fans we deserve, you get to laugh at Savannahâs face and you can separate next day if you want to.â
âIâm not sure If someone is going to believe it.â She blurts out loud as she glances at the guitarist.
âOh please, you know each others mouth better than your own names.â Reggie says without thinking, Luke snorted with laughter and Y/N blushes like crazy.
âYeah, and you used to spend a lot of time together too, two weeks shouldnât be that hard.â Alex tries to recover the seriousness of the situation to close the deal.
âOkay then. If I can help Sunset Curve and get that smirk of superiority off Savannah's face then sounds good to me. Are you willing to date me, Patterson?â
Their eyes meet again and without a sign of hesitation her now officially boyfriend for the next two weeks, answers.
âBeautiful, you have no idea.â
There is something about relationships that never get to happen that make the heart weigh more, that nostalgia to be stronger, the person more difficult to forget. Luke can't help but remember during the last periods of the day just how good it felt to taste the girl's lips again. Feelings of desire, of familiarity, of belonging. All colliding and going deep into his bones.
He decided a long time ago he didn't do relationships, but if he did, it would have been with her. He was willing to break that rule for her, but she had the final decision and it wasn't him. He accidentally put himself in the perfect situation though. All those what ifâs will finally have an answer.
For two weeks he can test what it would have been if Y/N Y/L had chosen him. And when he finally tries the experience he will be free. Free from all the what ifâs, free from her, from her memory. And there's also the part of how much the band will benefit. The main objective of doing this, obviously.
The last hour is finally over and Luke sped off toward Reggie's truck. In front of it is Alex already waiting and he can see Reggie and Y/N also walking in the same direction. The four of them regroup and Y/N starts to discuss game plan.
âIf we are going to do this, we are going to do it well. There will be a party at Finch's house this Saturday and the three of you are coming with me."
The three members of Sunset Curve make an annoyed face at the words of their friend. "That's exactly why no one supports you. You think you are too cool to hang out with the people but then you want everyone to happily buy your shirts and listen to your music."
âShe has a point there.â Alex agrees, and puts his arm around her shoulder.
âOkay, letâs do this. If you all come with me, we can leave early and crash one of those places you usually play. Maybe even have some people of the party to come with us and hear you rock the shit out of that place.â All three smile with bright eyes In response.
âYou got yourself a deal, pretty lady.â Reggie says in a flirting tone and winks at her. Luke gives him a light punch on the arm.
"I'll see you on Saturday in my house then, at nine. Goodbye boys." She winks at Luke and walks over to her car, making sure to do a perfect walk because she knows pretty well that the guitarist isn't going to stop watching her until she pulls out of the parking lot.
Luke gives her a perfect smile one last time before Y/N leaves school. These two weeks are going to be weird.
The four members of the band are in the truck, Bobby decided to get out of school recently but a party and a gig sounds like a rad Saturday. Luke gets out and walks to the door to wait for Y/N to come out. When she finally comes down he feels like all the air is coming out of his lungs.
She's wearing the black Sunset Curve t-shirt that he forgot one of the many times he climbed up to the second floor of the house to see her. A short black skirt and one of his red flannels that he probably left there several months ago as well. Black fishnets stockings which he can't help but imagine ripping out with his teeth, her lips in that tone of red that drives him crazy, and her classic black boots that he hadn't seen since she started dating the cheating idiot.
âGenius huh? Is there anything that says more âLuke Pattersonâs propertyâ than this? I donât think so." She smiles proudly and blushes when she notices Luke's gaze locked on her legs. Fishnets may have been included in the outfit due to a certain weakness that the musician has towards them.
The hair that the guitarist is used to seeing in a perfect bun lately, is now loose and tousled. As rebellious as the day he met her, moving in harmonious tune to the rhythm of Now or Never.
Luke reaches out to to entwine his hand in her hair and whispers slowly into her ear âYou look... fucking hell, you are not playing fair, baby.â Lightly biting her lobe when heâs done speaking.
They both linger in a trance for a few seconds, considering whether they should just walk in and lock the door. But before they can decide, the boys that already know this story pretty well and are sick of waiting for them while they flirt, get out of the truck. Reggie carries Y/N like a sack of potatoes and between Bobby and Alex take Luke by the arms, putting them in the vehicle so they can finally get to the lame party and then, the gig.
When they finally arrive, the eyes of almost all the girls go to the members of the band, who are definitely dressed for the occasion. Y/N can't help but notice how most of the cheerleaders wink at her boyfriend. Yeah, itâs not real and will last two weeks, but for now she justs wants to forget that part and enjoy the feeling of him being hers.
So she makes a small, harmless gesture to mark territory and puts her hand in the guitarist's back pocket.
Luke turns to see her, an amused smirk on his face. âJealousy looks so hot on you, I wouldn't mind if you marked my lips with that red lipstick too."
That statement resonates in Y/Nâs head. All the times Diego refused to kiss her so as not to stain himself and even forbade her to use that lipstick that for her was part of her brand returning to her head. Followed quickly by every night Luke came down after finishing playing and instantly attacked her lips with his, caring for nothing more than the feel of their tongues fighting for control.
âNot jealousy, just a quick reminder to everyone. You are all mine tonight.â She puts a little more pressure on the hand in his pocket and stands on her tiptoes to kiss the corner of his lips.
âDance with me?â She asks innocently while giving him a flirtatious smile.
âWith you, always beautiful.â He smiles back, winking charmingly.
His hands find hers and she begins to dance and jump gracefully to the rhythm of the music as he spins her around, both singing the lyrics to each other with unmatched energy, happy to be together.
âTonight I'm gonna dance, for all that we've been through.â She sings with a determined voice, taking the musician by the hair and bringing their faces closer.
âBut I don't wanna dance, If I'm not dancing with you.â Luke returns the verse with the same passion, just inches separating their lips. His beautiful and trained voice tends to sound like a more country vibe when he gets carried away and especially in more pop melodies like this, and honestly drives her crazy.
The fact that the rocker at heart gave in to listen to other genres for her and even remembered the lyrics was enough to melt her heart. The last time she was able to let herself go and sing at the top of her lungs like this was with him, listening to a mix of their favorite songs in his car while going for their favorite icecream. Whatever they had was a lot more deeper than what they are willing to admit.
âDid we really just see Luke sing and dance to a pop-country song?â Reggie asks the band, Alex and Bobby behind him laughing at the guitarist who blushes and kisses his date's forehead. âI am not going to discuss this. I'll go get us something to drink." He winks at her and dissapears into the crowd.
âIâll go too, be right back.â Bobby announces leaving Y/N with Alex and Reggie, who smirk at her.
âIt seems that pretending is easier than you thought.â Alex can't stop smiling, Reggie playfully itches the girl's ribs who grins from ear to ear.
"Everything always fits when I'm with him. I ruined my chance. I'm totally aware, and I'm not expecting anything from him, because I honestly don't deserve it. But I plan to enjoy every second of these two weeks that came from heaven to the fullest.â
âYou should explain hi-â Before Reggie can finish speaking, Diego appears behind Y/N and tries to forcefully pull her by the arm.
The guys manage to react quickly and release her arm while stepping in front of her. But right away his teammates get behind him.
âSave yourselves the pain, she is going with me.â Diego says confidently, his face showing arrogance.
âGuys, ple-â She tries to stop them from getting hurt, but both step a little forward, determined to protect her no matter the cost.
âYou are not taking her, Diego. But you are more than welcome to try.â Alex's voice sounds cool and calm, but Y/N can see how much his hands are shaking and her heart hurts at the sight.
They are all so into their own business that nobody notices the guitarist's return until his lips collide with his girl, who is surprised for a few seconds but immediately recognizes him and gives him space for his tongue to taste her mouth.
They both lose themselves in the kiss for a few seconds longer than necessary and then slowly separate. Y/N grinning from ear to ear as she tries to wipe some of her lipstick off Luke's mouth. He just smirks, as happy as ever.
"Sorry guys, do you need something?" He plays the innocent card. After that kiss, most of the people at the party are watching the scene, so Diego, who looks furious, chooses to leave without saying anything. Right away they can hear a long restrained breath from Reggie and Alex.
âYou are a cocky genius, I'm not sure we could have won that one.â
âIâm not sure? Did you seriously think we had a chance?â Alex asks, clearly anxious after what had just happened.
Y/N stands in front of them and throws herself into their arms, whispering how many thanks she can say in a row. They return the hug and begin to relax in each others arms. Bobby and Luke join in the hug, and Luke whispers his own thanks to his friends.
The band decides that itâs time to go and to their surprise, when they let people know that they are going to play at a small club in the center of the city, some decide to follow them. On the way, Y/N spends her time wiping her lipstick off Lukeâs face with some wipes she had in her bag, struggling not to press her lips against his every time he made her an adorable grimace or a flirtatious smile.
âYou know the drill, beautiful.â Luke turns to see her directly in the eyes, concern on his face just like every time before.
âFront row, not a second out of your sight, so if I need something better wait for you guys to finish performing to get it. Better safe than sorry." She recites, proud to remember every word.
âThank you, baby.â He smiles a little more calmly, gives her a light kiss on the cheek and starts to help take out the instruments.
They are only doing a few songs from their repertoire, but the energy they transmit drives everyone in the little club crazy. The Sunset Curve members look at a Luke they haven't seen in a long time. The energy and passion in his voice dedicated entirely to the little woman in the front row who sings with all her strength every word and melody, imitating Luke's guitar solos or Alex's drums with her arms.
The 15 students who decided to attend are close to Y/N, trying to get her attention from time to time but nothing can take her eyes off her friends. Not even she knew how much she had missed seeing them play. The look of maximum happiness on their faces.
The last song is one that the little club seems quite familiar with, but she had never heard it before. So it must have been written in the last six months.
âHad my chances, could've been where he is standing.
That's what hurts the most, girl, I came so close
But now you'll never know. Baby, I loved you first.â
The lyrics leave her breathless. Luke, who had made contact with her practically all night, now seems to avoid her eyes like a plague. She definitely has to ask Alex about this song before getting any ideas.
The four bow and get off the stage, Luke launches immediately for Y/N, some of the girls try to get his attention and even try to grab him by the arm or waist but he remains firm until his hands meet his girl's hip.
âWhat do you think?â Luke's fingers shaking in the grip on her waist tell her he's nervous. The fact that her opinion of them matters so much to him that it makes him feel insecure makes her heart skip a beat.
âIt was amazing as always, rockstar.â A huge smile appears on the guitarist's face, who gently takes her face with his hands and kisses her nose. After all, he has to remember that they are only pretending to date and for now he has no good reason to push his lips against hers. It doesn't matter how much he needs her.
The way home is uneventful, Y/N sleeping in Luke's arms while Alex puts the guitarist's red flannel over her.
âWill they ever stop pretending they're ridiculously in love with each other?â Bobby asks Reggie as he turns his head to see the couple.
âThey are both stubborn and allergic to real feelings. Especially love. They are so terrified that they have to sabotage themselves somehow.â Alex answers for Reggie who just nods without taking his eyes off the road.
"Do you really have to talk like I'm not here?" Luke asks, resting his chin delicately on the head of the woman in his arms.
Tonight felt unreal. Felt practically like one of the many dreams he has had with the girl throughout these months. Seeing her in his clothes was enough to make the night special, but without a doubt dancing in her arms, savoring every inch of her mouth and seeing her energetically sing each of his songs to end the night with her in his arms is just perfect. Reggie parks at Y/Nâs after dropping Alex and Bobby, and as Luke decides how to get her to bed without waking her she sinks deeper into his chest.
"Carry me to the door hotstuff, I like to be in your sexy arms." Luke lets out a cheeky laugh in surprise, another laugh coming from Reggie.
âSheâs so asleep, I canât. Adorable though.â Luke agrees and takes her bag before walking down with her in his arms and carrying her effortlessly to the door.
âThank you for tonight. I didnât think I could ever feel this happy and complete again.â She murmurs in his ear before giving him a sweet peck in the lips and enter the house.
What the two of them took from tonight is that indisputably, they are both still head over heels for each other. But it was like that the first time and it just wasn't enough.
Days go by with the couple being the school's favorite gossip. People talking in the hallways about the special way Luke looks at his girlfriend, comparisons about the dry way Y/N used to be with Diego compared to how she is with the guitarist, always touching him somehow and spending all the time with him as possible, visibly much happier. Some also talking about how good the band sounds and wondering why they hadn't heard it before. Everything going according to plan.
On Thursday afternoon, Luke arranged to pick her up for the two of them to find him something formal enough for the dance. When Y/N opened the door she met his beautiful greenish hazel eyes, and swears that for a second she forgot how to breathe.
She knows this scene. He smiles sweetly at her, takes her hand and opens the door of the car for her. Multiple interesting memories inside this car coming back to her mind. His firm hands on her legs, his tongue testing her mouth, his hot moans after biting his lower lip...
âBeautiful? Whatcha thinking?â Luke's voice brings her back to the present, his hand goes directly to her thigh as all that many midnight drives and without saying anything he plays the girl's favorite album.
Thatâs it. If she wants a chance with him, she needs to make this right. âI- We really need to talk.â Hearing the tone of her voice, Luke senses what is coming. He was here before. So he turns off the car that hadn't even started to move yet and turns to look at her.
"I know we've been putting it off, but we have to talk about how it all ended, I-"
Luke interrupts her before she can finish, his voice sounds broken, sad, angry. "I really don't want to talk about how you preferred an idiot for whom you don't feel the remotest thing just because he'll get a football scholarship and this perfect future.â
She spends a few seconds processing his words. Did he really say what she thinks he said? "It wasn't like that, Luke."
"I know it looks like I can't compete with him, but I would have done anything for you. And I thought you knew that.â
She doesn't know what to do or say. She was so unconscious, so selfish, so heartless, that she didn't even think about how he could have understood the situation. In how much he must have suffered these months watching her with Diego, believing he wasnât good enough. Believing that she chose someone who wasnât him, because he wasnât good enough.
He stays quiet, examining the girl who seems about to cling to tears. The anger evaporates instantly and he leans into her seat to wrap his arms tightly around her. She starts sobbing, but seems determined to talk.
âR- Remember the night we met? It was the first Sunset Curve presentation. I had just entered the little club, but your voice dragged me to the front row like a magnet. And when I was finally in front of the stage, I knew it. It was you. The butterflies that everyone talks about for the first time in my stomach. I knew I could never feel again something even close to what I was feeling at that moment.
I got carried away in your voice, dancing to the rhythm of the melody and recording every sound in my head. And when I opened my eyes again, yours were staring at me. And I understood that you felt it too. It was me, and you knew it. It was so natural, powerful, magnetic, deep. I loved you since the first day, Luke. How is that not going to scare me?
When the feelings started to get so strong they burned, I knew I had to run. You always made it very clear that relationships were not your thing, I could not continue to wait for something that from the beginning you made it clear you could not give.
Then Diego arrived at the right time to give me an exit, and I took it. I knew he just wanted to have me around to raise his good boy status, and feeling nothing was safer than feeling too much. So I lied. I lied to you, to me, to everyone. And Iâm sorry, but I was so scared. I was a coward who should have done things differently.â
When she finally finishes pulling out what she's been saving for months, she pulls away from Luke to see his face. His eyes look crystal clear, his cheeks red. But his beautiful white smile lights up his face.
"Next time you love me so much that you can't bear it, let me know, please? I can step on your foot or sneeze in your face. I was literally going to ask you to be my girlfriend that weekend. I even wrote you a song."
âYou were? The one you sang the other night?â
âOkay, I wrote you a lot of songs. Maybe too many. But the one I'm talking about is different. Maybe I'll let you listen to it one day. If you stick around long enough this time.â
She smirks and kiss him lightly on the lips, enjoying the feeling of being able to. He knows he reacted way too chill. But he also understands her feelings. What is the point of reproaching her for something they can no longer change? A bad decision made by a love so immense that it left her blind. He is simply not willing to waste any more time. They are finally going to do things right. Neither of them is going to self-sabotage it this time, and since he doesn't trust it, he'll put Alex and Reggie in charge to make sure.
The night of the dance arrives. Y/N is wearing a beautiful black dress and her classic red lips. Luke tried his best to look fancy and he's wearing a pretty cool suit but in a sleeveless version. His still fake girlfriend couldn't stop smiling when she saw him. Just perfect.
Dancing in his arms, letting him go only once in a while to dance with the other three members of Sunset Curve made the night amazing. The rest of these two weeks they spent it talking, laughing... making out. Enjoying the most of the time they lost. Even completely forgetting why they were faking it in the first place, until they ask the candidates to take the stage.
"And your king are queen are... Y/N Y/L and Diego Hernandez!"
They all turn to see Luke in shock. Just hearing their names together is enough to make him frustrated, but there's not much he can do right now. And that's when he remembers what he asked the boys to play for the king and queen's first dance. Great, now dance theyâll dance to his song together. Just his damn luck. He sabotaged himself again without imagining it.
They are crowned and Diego offers her his hand, not without first throwing a face of superiority to the guitarist. She walks but continues straight until she is in front of her lover.
Luke looks at her strangely, she smiles at him.
âBut I don't wanna dance, If I'm not dancing with you. Remember?â She sings happily in his ear, and offers her hand.
âDance with me?â He looks at her adoringly and takes her hand.
âAlways, beautiful.â
They walk to the center of the floor, Alex begins to sing the first verse. Y/N rests her head on Luke's chest, her hands around his neck, as he presses her against him by the hip, wrapping her in his arms. His head bent to sing the song in her ear.
âI swear to God, I can see... you're still the girl in the club.â
Tears of happiness begin to flow from Y/N, the words that she never had the opportunity to know, finally getting revealed. Luke's sweet, soft voice in her ear. The perfect melody and the beautiful voice of Reggie and Alex in the background.
âAnd I need you to know that we're fallin' so fast
We're fallin' like the stars, fallin' in love.â
The moment he sings in love, Y/N lifts her head to meet his eyes. He lifts his hands to her cheeks to wipe her tears, gently holding her face to make sure she sees him recite every word.
âAnd I'm not scared to say those words. With you, I'm safe.
We're fallin' like the stars, we're fallin' in love.â
The second Luke finishes singing, Y/N stands on tiptoe and pushes her lips against his. Tears of happiness continue to fall from her face, wrapped in a passionate, slow, deep kiss. He's all she wants. Her heart chose him since the very first day.
âI canât believe one of Lukeâs random ideas it's what made them find their way back to each other. Reg, we tried for 6 months and we were never even close. Two weeks âpretendingâ and bam! they are just fine.â
Both watch the happy couple dance now that they are official.
"You know what they say, Fake it till you make it.â Reggie smirks while watching Luke happily kiss Y/N.
âFair. At least everything was fixed before we shoved Luke into the pool to see if Y/N would rescue him with a mouth-to-mouth kiss."
âWe still could try, you know... for science.â
âCool. Monday works for me. Do you think that even though he didn't win, we still have a chance to win some more fans?â
Reggie raises his head before answering, a smile appears when he sees the bunch of girls and boys who are spying on them just a few meters away. Probably waiting for them to finish talking to get closer.
âI think Sunset Curve will be just fine too, Alex.â

Hongjoong:Â
It was Friday night, and that meant movie night for you and Hongjoong. It was something you suggested, and although Hongjoong refused initially, you know how much he secretly loves it. Probably more than you in fact. This week, it was your turn to pick a movie, and you had picked a simple rom-com, one that youâve watched hundreds of times and one that both you and Hongjoong absolutely loved. You sat on either side of the couch with a bowl of popcorn in the middle.Â
About halfway through the movie, you noticed Hongjoong staring at you, you looked back up at him and shrugged, asking him what was wrong only for him to sigh and shake his hand. You were confused to say the least, however when you looked back up the movie, you realised why he was acting the way he was. You saw the lead actors cuddling up together on the couch, it was one of your favourite scenes, as the characters finally realised their love for eachother. In your case however, you realised Hongjoong wanted to cuddle you too, but was too shy to admit it. You sneakily took that as a sign, and scooted closer to him. The second he saw you scooting closer, a wide smile erupted on his face, and he took you in his arms. It was small moments like this that made you realise how much you loved him. You scooted closer to him and buried you head in his chest, while he rested his chin on your head. He wrapped both his arms around your waist and nuzzled your neck.Â
âI love you so muchâ He whispered
âI love you moreâ You whispered back taking his knuckles and kissing them
Another 20 minutes later, you started to find the position you were in a little uncomfortable. You were on your period anyways and your chest was starting to feel really sore. You tried moving Hongjoongâs arms away from you subtly, but he noticed and looked at you. You just smiled and shook your head while watching the movie again. A few minutes later, your chest started feeling really sore, and you decided to just massage it to relieve the pain. This didnât go unnoticed by Hongjoong however.
âUm babe, what are you doing?â He asked, genuinely curious.
âNothing sorry, my chest feels a little soreâ you croaked out, already feeling the strain in your back too.
âAhh, youâre on your period, itâs the 17thâ He realised all of a sudden
âWait you- how did you know?â
âI just rememberâ He shrugged a blush growing on his cheeks
âAnyways, do you want me to help?â He asked sincerelyÂ
âSureâ You responded chuckling, thinking he was joking. Instead he just moved your hand aside and slid his hands under your thin white top.
âWait, youâre being seriousâ You asked genuinely surprised. You hadnât done anything intimate yet, despite making out a few times, this was definitely a first.
âYeahâ He said nonchalantly, unhooking your bra. He let your bra fall to your stomach, before taking it out and throwing it to the side. He then put his hands back under your shirt, not touching you yet.
âMay I?â He asked lovingly, looking you straight in the eyes. You nodded, and his hands gently made contact with your stomach. You immediately got chills and he kissed the back of your neck, giggling.Â
He then proceeded to slowly glide his hands up, cupping both breasts in his hands. Instantly, you sighed in relief and comfort. He started kneading them slightly, skilfully using his fingers to ease the tension. He kissed the nape of your neck and squeezed you breasts tighter. You gasped and sighed, feeling like you were in heaven. He then trailed his hands further up towards your shoulders and back using his fingers to put pressure on certain points and relieve the tension. You sighed in response, assuring him that you felt better. He trailed his fingers back to the front, and took his hands out of your tshirt. You turned around in his lap, and kissed him on the jaw.
âThank youâ You said sincerely looking at him with nothing but love in your eyes.
âAny time babeâ he responded kissing your nose.Â
This became a regular occurrence, and he often gave you massages during that time of the month.
Seonghwa:
You and Seonghwa rarely got time together due to his busy schedule, however after a lot of begging the KQ staff, all the boys had gotten the weekend and a few days off. You and Seonghwa particularly were overjoyed, and he quickly booked a weekend getaway for the both of you. It had been so long since you last got to spend time together like that, so you were excited to say the least.Â
Once you both arrived at the location, you were thrilled to see mountains and a river just from your balcony. You couldnât have asked for more. You wanted to simply lounge around in your hotel room all day, since it was the first day of your period. Knowing you had pmdd, you knew the best option would to be to stay at the room for just a night, and to just let it pass. You changed into some black thin leggings and one of Seonghwaâs hoodies and made yourself comfortable on the big bed and fell asleep. A few hours later you were awoken by Seonghwaâs honey like voice.
âBaby, itâs time to get up, Iâve made a reservation for the both of us at a restaurant nearby.âÂ
Not wanting to disappoint him, and feeling very grateful, you changed into a simple above the knee, bodycon dress and did your makeup quickly. The second you stepped out, a bright red blush spread across Seonghwaâs face, only for him to come closer and lovingly kiss your on your temple.
âI love youâ He whispered
âMe tooâ you whispered back into his chest
While walking down to the restaurant, you kept pausing while walking due to dizziness. This was common during your cycle. Due to heavy bleeding, you often felt dizzy, however you tried hiding it so Seonghwa would not get worried. After a while however, he realised how you kept falling behind, and he decided to ask you what was wrong. As he approached you though, you swayed forwards and fell into him.Â
âHey, hey, hey, Y/N whatâs wrong? Is everything alright?â He asked, putting his hand around your waist to hold you up. You tried looking back up to him, but your eyes kept drooping and your legs felt wobbly.Â
âNo, itâs just, Iâm on my period, and I feel a little dizzy, nothing too much thoughâ Seonghwa tilted your chin up to look at your face and without a word, bent down with his back facing you.Â
âHop onâ He said. You were too dazed to respond, and simply obliged. He turned in the opposite direction and began walking home.
âNo, no, no wait where are we going, the restaurant is the other wayâ You told him as sternly as you could.
âHun, did you expect me to take us to the restaurant, when youâre obviously in pain? Besides youâre more important, so please donât ever hide stuff like this. I know how bad your periods can get.â He said softly, only for you to hear.Â
âBut the reservation-â
Nevermind that, I love you, okay, and you come first, besides I packed some ramen too, and Iâm kind of in the mood for that.â He said and you chuckled at him.Â
The rest of the way you both sang songs while walking home, and once you did reach home, he babied you to no end.Â
Yunho:
You and Yunho were out with the rest of Ateez for lunch just to enjoy yourselves and take a break from their busy schedules. You were all out at this new cafe/restaurant, and it was not too far from the dorms. Your period wasnât going to come for another 3-4 days at least, but the cramps had started and you tried your best to power through it. You didnât want to bother Yunho, and so you agreed to lunch with a smile on your face. Anyways, going out with everyone could technically distract you from the pain so why not.Â
You both had arrived last, and the rest of Ateez and their significant others were already there. Everyone welcomed the both of you, and after you said your greetings, you both sat down. Being the talkative outgoing person Yunho was, he was having fun while laughing loudly and talking to his friends. You adored this side of him. He was acting like such a child and you were reminded of why you fell in love with him. Everyone decided to play a game of truth or dare, and you simply agreed.Â
At this point however, your cramps had begun to set in, and every once in a while you let out a pained whine or sigh. You played for a few rounds, but nothing too serious happened. Except for you having to scarf down an entire lemon, and Wooyoung and San having to kiss eachother on the cheek. After a few rounds, everyone decided it was time to order. While going through the menu however, you felt a sharp pain shoot through your abdomen, and you banged your head down on the table. The rest of the members were talking loudly so they didnât seem to notice. Yunho however, did. In fact, the second he heard the clanking of the forks and spoons, on the table after you head had hit it, he went into panic mode.Â
âY/N?!â He whisper yelled.
âyeahâ you groaned out
âWhatâs wrong are you alright?â
âYeah, itâs just I have really bad period cramps and I donât know how much longer Iâll be able to bear them.â You sighed out, your voice cracking at the end.Â
âHey, you should have told me before we left, youâre more important than this lunch meet up, we can always rescheduleâ
âI know, I just donât know what to do now, Iâm sorry for ruining lunchâ You said, your head still against the table.
âItâs alright sweetheart, we can leaveâ He said. He gave you the cap he was wearing to cover your face, and proceeded to fake a call.
âHello? OH MY GOODNESS, NO WAY!â he yelled into the phone.
Everyone looked at him weirdly, while you simply chuckled at is funny antics.Â
âOkay everyone, my pet parrot just gave birth, we gotta go! bye everyone!â He yelled as he pulled your hand and left the cafe. You heard a few laughs and giggles from the rest of the members and a âhe doesnât even have a pet parrotâ, while the both of you just giggled and walked home.Â
Upon reaching home, he got you a heating pad and offered to give you a nice massage to ease the pain. It was safe to say, all pain was soon forgotten.
Yeosang:
You and Yeosang were quite the couple. Yeosang, despite being known to dislike skin ship, loved initiating it with you. Quite ironically, he was always the clingier one, in need of affection. You didnât mind thought, obviously. It was a normal night, and you were both cuddling. One of his arms around your waist and the other in your hair, playing with it, with your head in his chest, inhaling his musky scent. It was not abnormal to cuddle for hours as it was a way for the both of you to take a break and spend some time together, in a relaxing way. Noticing it getting quite late, the both of you decided to sleep and so he picked you up, with your legs around his waist and tucked you to bed. He soon crawled under the blanket too, and put his arm under your head. You snuggled into his neck and kissed it lightly before falling asleep.Â
About a few hours later, it was around 2 or 3 in the morning and you felt slightly nauseous. You were on your period anyways, so this wasnât anything new. Slightly groaning in your sleep, you tried to ignore it to no avail. Soon, the pain and nausea got so unbearable you couldn't help but cry. You didnât want to wake Yeosang up, so you just silently cried into his shirt, while whimpering softly. You soon felt his hand trail up under your shirt and rub circles on your skin.
âBaby, I can hear you, is everything alright? Why are you cryingâ He said huskily. Swearing at yourself for waking him up, you tried turning to the other side to avoid him, only for him to sit up and take you in his lap.
âY/N please tell me whatâs wrong, I want to try to help you, pleaseâ He said softly into your hair.Â
âI donât know, I feel nauseous and my stomach hurts, itâs probably just my period crampsâ You said sighing. The second you did however, you felt bile rise up in your throat so you ran to the washroom. You threw up whatever you had into the toilet, and painfully clutched your stomach.
At this point, Yeosang was also wide awake and was up and by your side as instantly. Tears were flowing out your eyes due to the frustration and pain.Â
âIâm sorry Yeo, I just I donât know why this is happening to meâ you sighed, frustratedly. You clutched your stomach again and let more out, while he held back your hair and pat your back. He gently kissed your temple, and decided to get meds for you.
âDonât apologise hunâ he said while walking back to you. He wiped your lips and helped you brush your teeth, after which you took the meds. Despite feeling a little better now, you still sat on the ground in the washroom, feeling guilty.
âHey Y/N, are you still feeling nauseous?â Yeosang asked carefully, crouching down to take your chin in his hands.
âNo, itâs just I canât help but feel guilty for waking you up late in the night, every month, I must seem so burdensome. You cried, looking at him with watery eyes.Â
âYou have no reason to feel like that hun, I love you and Iâll be there for you no matter whatâ He said, wiping your tears with both his thumbs and holding you close.Â
He held you close for the rest of the night, humming you songs and rubbing your stomach.

A/N: So like, incoming fluff bc this idea was cute and sometimes I do be needing fluff, that's about it, enjoy <3
Rogue-durin-16 masterlist
The relationship between me and my hair had always been... Bumpy, you could say.
There were periods in which I would find it quite lovely; during those times I would let my curls free, showing them off with a proud demeanor, knowing my hair was unique. Those times began to turn less and less usual since the middle of third year, though they were still there.
However, after the summer prior to my sixth year, those moments had banished; I only wished to hide my hair, and my friends ended up noticing. They told me surely there would be a spell or potion able to change my hair.
As if they had summoned it, the next day in Transfiguration, Professor McGonagall introduced us to what seemed like my salvation; Crinus Muto, an advanced spell that modified the caster's hair with no restrictions.
My best friend advised me against using it, claiming it wouldn't help my insecurityâ if only, it would worsen it.
I really wanted to do as she had told me and completely dismiss the spell's existence, but two nights after I had a big mental breakdown about it, caused by the most stupid thing ever.
"Is Weasley staring at you or am I blind?" One of my friends whispered, her eyes trained on the Gryffindor table.
I didn't even bother to look up, not wanting to know whether it was true or not, before responding with a quiet "You're blind."
"I mean, it's hard to tell with two rows of students between us but," She nudged me, urging me to avert my gaze from my dinner and redirect it to Fred. "it kinda looks like he's... staring."
Curiosity killed the cat, I guess. My eyes finally left my plate and were, in fact, met with Fred's brown ones. As soon as they met, though, he looked away, pretending to be focused on his food, just like I had been doing seconds ago.
"Of course he's staring." Hannah Abbot, who sat right in front of my friend, commented with her mouth full. "Have you seen your hair?" She swallowed her food, looking me up and down before adding, "No offense, but it's an absolute mess." My eyes opened widely in shock at her bluntness. "You should take care of it, really."
"Has someone ever told you you're an ill-mannered bitch, Hannah?" I heard my friend talking back at the younger girl while I got up and started to make my way out of the Great Hall.
Of course, I didn't see Fred shooting up and attempting to go after me; ultimately he decided to stay in his place, since he saw my friend walking out too.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
I was very aware of all the pair of eyes that had been laid on me the very moment I entered the greenhouse where we would be doing the Herbology tasks.
When I had met my friends at the Hufflepuff common room that morning, I had received divided opinions about my straight hair. At first I had been very convinced that it looked way better than my curly hair, but seeing my friends' reaction, I wasn't that confident about it anymore.
I didn't have time to undo the spell before class, so I decided to go along with it and see how the day unfolded.
I took a deep breath, my eyes trained on the ground as I made my way to an empty seat; maybe there weren't that many people staring, maybe it was just my anxiety.
I finally gathered the courage and looked up, nervously scanning the glasshouse so I could shake off my fears.
There was only a couple of my peers staring, which would have put me at ease, if one of them wasn't Fred Weasley.
On top of it, of course, he wasn't even trying to be subtle, it was almost as if he wanted me to notice his judging eyes; I could feel his gaze on me for the entire class.
The instant Professor Sprout dismissed us, I shoved everything in my bag and left the greenhouse, thanking a couple of Gryffindors who complimented my hair on my way out.
Again, I didn't notice Fred leaving the class as soon as he could to run after me.
I threw my bag against a tree near the lake shore and, as I fell against it, I heard someone jogging in my direction.
"In a hurry to sit by the lake, Y/l/n?" I followed the tall ginger with my eyes while he circled me and sat down by me. "You alright?"
"I just needed a break from... People." I vaguely explained, focusing on the water instead of on the boy besides me.
"Understandable." He hesitated for a second before adding, "Do you want me to leave?"
"No, it's fine." I surprised myself at how calmed and collected I sounded, as if I wasn't chatting with my crush.
"What happened to your hair?" His genuinely curious inquiry took me aback, and I struggled to find something to answer.
"Why?" My heartbeat picked up, anxiety inundating me once more. "You don't like it?"
"It looks weird." Fred looked at me up and down with a grimace. "You don't... Look like yourself." I was about to enter fight or flight mode, but he seemed to notice, and panic made its way to his face. "But it doesn't matter what I think," he was quick to add, his eyes wide open as if he knew he had said something he should have not. "I meanâ I think it shouldn't matter, if you like it, that's greatâ I mean, you don't need my opinion about that either!"
"Calm down, I understand." I tried to reassure him, before his rambling drove the both of us crazy. "Can I tell you a secret?" He nodded with pursed lips, surely afraid he would fuck up if he spoke again. "I've been very insecure about my hair latelyâ like, very." I sighed. "My best friend told me not to straighten it, but last night I got a not so nice comment andâ"
"So that's why you left?" I nodded, tugging my sleeves. Fred went silent for a moment, and then cleared his throat and scooted closer to me. "I know this won't do much, but I really love your hair. Kinda reminds me of fireworks and streamers." He gestured around his own head, mimicking the fireworks' movement. "Dunno I think is fun and pretty awesome." I raised my brows at him in surprise. "Like you."
"Aw, that's very sweet." He offered me a sheepish smile as I felt my cheeks blushing. "It does a lot, actually." I confessed, fidgeting with my rings. "I guess I kinda needed to hear something positive about my hair."
"Well, whenever you need to hear something positive about your hair," he pointed at himself. "I'm your man." He winked at me and I let out a chuckle. "I can also tell you positive things about you in general, but that has a price."
"And what is it?"
"You'll have to let me buy you a drink at The Three Broomsticks this Saturday." I tried not to let panic slip through my recently eased demeanor; was he asking me on a date? "And give me a kiss after." He wiggled his brows at me and my face turned red. "the kiss is negotiable."
I casted my gaze down, fixing it on my shoes, not sure of what I was supposed to say at that. His foot tapping mine snapped me out of my thoughts.
"So?" My eyes traveled to him once more, only to find his studying me already. "What do you say, Y/l/n?"
"Well," I shrugged, trying in vain to play nonchalant. "Seems like an affordable price, so it's fine by me."
"I'll pick you up after lunch, yeah?" Before I could agree, he gasped, his eyes going wide. "I'm a genius."
"Come again?" I frowned, confused as his sudden frantic behavior.
"Don't mind me, love." He jumped up and jogged towards the castle, leaving me puzzled in there. I was about to grab a book from my bag when Fred rushed back, crouched down and pecked my cheek. "Your hair's amazing." He assured me. "See you!" My fingertips graced my now flushed cheek as he headed off.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
I was finishing my lunch when two towering redheads entered the Hall running; while George, slowed down, Fred made a beeline to the Hufflepuff table, his casual clothes already on.
"Ready?" He asked breathless.
"Yeahâ you didn't have lunch, did you?" I pointed out, getting up to stand in front of him.
"No, but I'll eat something laterâ" his eyes roamed over my carefully picked outfit before stating, "You look... very pretty."
"Why, thank you." I offered him a smile and looked over my shoulder at the Gryffindor table, where his friends were very attentive to all we did. "You sure you don't wanna eat something?"
"Hundred percent." He tilted his head towards the gates. "shall we?" He prompted to walk before him, and it was then that I realized he had his hands behind his back. Once we were out in the yard, he tugged my hand and made me turn to him. "I made something for you."
"You didn't have to." Was the first thing that came to my mind when I heard his words. Then the wording dawned on me; he didn't get me something, he made me something. "What is it?"
"So, you know that I told you your hair reminded me of fireworks and streamers?" I nodded, not quite knowing where he was going with that. "Wellâ" he then showed me what his back was hiding; a delicate, tiny firecracker with my name written on the side. "George helped me so I could finish it on time."
"I'mâ" at my loss of words, I could only let out a happy laugh. "This is so cuteâ am I supposed to ignite it?"
"Duh!" I gently pushed his shoulder in response to his teasing. "Do you know how to do it?"
"I've seen you do it plenty of times." I admitted, grabbing the firecracker with one hand and my wand with the other; it looked so pretty, it was a pity I'd have to ruin it.
With a brief firemaking spell, the firecracker set off. Fred pulled me back slightly before it happened, though.
I was in awe at the beautiful fireworks before us, which looked like a color-changing, expanding version of my hair.
When the colors died out, I turned to Fred, whose attention was already on me, awaiting for a reaction. Surely, he was not expecting the kiss he got, but he didn't complain either; while my hands rested on his chest, his traveled to cup my cheeks before I could pull away.
"So you liked it?" He questioned quietly against my lips.
"I loved it." I whispered back with a wide smile. "You're a sweetheart." I pecked his lips before retreating. Holding his hand in mines, I made my way back into the castle. "We're not leaving until you have lunch."
"You are a sweetheart." He responded, following my lead without offering resistance. "By the way, your hair looks gorgeous." The corners of my lips twisted into a bigger smile at the sweet words he spoke only for me to hear as we went back into the Great Hall.
Maybe my hair wasn't that bad after all.

đđđđđ đđđđđ â 12 (finale)
gif not mine
pairing: taeyong x doyoung x reader
warnings: ădotae x reader, car accident, mentions of panic attack, mentions of blood. character goes into laboră
word count: ă 3,7k ă
A few days pass and you find yourself babysitting Aera for the third time and Doyoung and Taeyong wonât let you even touch her, theyâre having fun with her and you honestly love seeing them.
You want your own kid. Youâre pretty sure of that.
They want to take her to the park but she is still too young to go out to the park. When Aeri is finally taking a nap, you sit in the middle of the two men and rest your hands on each of their knees. âWhen are you getting your period?â Doyoung asks.
âNext week,â you reply.
âYouâll be ovulating then,â Taeyong nods.
You laugh. âYouâve been checking my ovulation days?â
âKind of?â Taeyong shrugs. âWeâve been tracking them.â
âYeah,â Doyoung kisses your forehead. âWe want to get you pregnant.â
You smile. âMe too.â
Days turn into weeks and weeks into months and you still havenât gotten pregnant. You know that it will take some time since you were on birth control for almost three years. And Doyoung and Taeyong arenât desperate since they use it as an excuse to keep fucking you all night. And being honest, you love it. Itâs like theyâre competing with each other to see who gets you pregnant first.
Youâre enjoying youâre still three: going on dates, having dinner at your favourite restaurants, going on small trips and staying up late watching some tv shows.
One night, when youâre still at the office and itâs pretty late, you get an unexpected visitor, Mark.
âHeyâŚâ you greet him. âHow are you?â
Mark smiles slightly. âHey, y/n. Sorry for coming at this hour.â
âItâs okay,â you say. âDo you need something?â
âI do, actually,â he presses his lips together. âI uhm need to talk to you about something.â
You nod. âWhat is it?â
âYou know Jackson and I used to be friends, right?â He looks at you. âHe⌠left me some instructions in case I didnât hear from him in 6 months.â
You frown. âInstructions?â
He sits in front of you and stares at you. âEnd you.â
You choke a laugh. âEnd me? What are you talking about, Mark? Is this some kind of sick joke?â
âListen, I like you and I believe youâre nice,â he rests an elbow on the desk and his chin on his palm. âBut Jackson to me was⌠everything.â
âHe manipulated you, too.â You state. âMark, whatever Jackson made you believe it wasnât true. He does this. Did this. You have everything, donât let Jackson poison you.â
Mark clenches his jaw. âDonât talk about him when heâs not around anymore.â
âOpen your eyes, Mark!â Your eyes dart to him. âYou were his puppet!â
Mark stands up and you donât know he ends up grabbing your jaw, gripping at it. âI told you to not talk about him. He was the love of my life and now heâs dead because of you.â
You push him away. âStop it.â You groan. âIf you leave now Iâll forget this happened.â
Mark smiles sideways. âAn eye for an eye, y/n.â
âDonât you dare, Mark,â your voice shakes.
âYou will know what is to lose the love of your life.â
You slap him in the face and push him. âDonât you dare, Mark. Do whatever you want to me but donât touch Taeyong or Doyoung, you hear me?â
Mark fixes your suit jacket and stares at you. âIf I were you Iâd be heading home, you might have to throw a funeral. Or two.â
(...)
You are aware that youâre speeding and texting and calling while youâre driving, but you donât care. Taeyong and Doyoung are not picking their phones and your heartâs race is racing. When you enter the underground parking of your building, you realise neither of their cars are parked there. You gulp and try to call them again. Nothing.
They earlier that day texted you theyâd stay at the office until late since they had some paperwork to finish and you hoped they were still there. You drive to their office and sigh in relief when you see their cars there.
You get into the building and go to their floor and see the lights on and the silhouettes through the glass. You enter their office and they startle since they werenât expecting anyone. You run to them, with your legs shaking and tug them for a hug.
ây/n? Are you alright, my love?â Doyoung asks, stroking your hair.
âWhat are you doing here, baby?â Taeyong kisses your temple.
âI justâŚâ you sigh, still hugging them. âI needed to see you guys.â
They slightly chuckle. âYou canât live without us, donât you?â Doyoung pinches your nose.
You gently shake your head. âI love you. Both of you. I love you so much.â
âWe love you, too, baby,â Taeyong strokes your cheek. âWhat happened? You look like you saw a ghost.â
âYou two werenât picking your phones,â you murmur. âI got worried.â
Doyoung frowns and he realises he has his phone in silence and Taeyong is on airplane mode.
âSorry, love,â Doyoung kisses your forehead. âAre you hungry?â
You shake your head. âCan I stay here?â
âOf course you can,â Taeyong pulls a chair out so you can sit.
You sit and watch them work, and being honest, youâre scared of leaving the office thinking of something that can happen on your way back home.
Several hours later, Taeyong and Doyoung are ready to go. Taeyong grabs his suit jacket and folds it into his arm meanwhile Doyoung puts it back on. They turn to you and they realise youâve fallen asleep with your arms resting on the desk and your head between them.
They softly smile and Doyoung takes you in his arms, you open your eyes and move in his arms, he plants a kiss on your forehead. âShhh, go back to sleep. Iâll drive us home.â
âCan the three of us drive in the same car?â you say, with your raspy voice.
Taeyong grabs your purse and he frowns. âWhy?â
âJust because,â you reply.
âYouâre acting weird tonight, y/n,â Taeyong murmurs.
âI just love you, guys.â
âWeâll talk later. Letâs go home,â Doyoung says.
When you arrive at the penthouse itâs almost 3 am and you feel drained. All you wanna do is to sleep and cuddle with your boyfriends.
Youâre brushing your teeth and Taeyong places himself behind you, he wraps his arms around you and rests his chin on your shoulder. âWhatâs going on, baby?â
You sigh and finish brushing your teeth. âIâm just tired. I had a terrible day.â
He kisses your cheek. âYou can talk to me.â
âI know,â you nod. âBut now I just want to sleep.â
âOkay, letâs get to bed then,â he turns you around and unbuttons your pants.
You giggle. âWhat are you doing?â
âIâm gonna help you to get into your pajamas,â he gives you a peck on the nose.
âOkay,â you grin.
Taeyong finishes helping you to get into your pajamas and then takes you to the bed where Doyoung is already laying. He smiles when you lay next to him and Doyoung wraps his arms behind you. âGoodnight, my love.â
âGoodnight,â you smile.
Taeyong gives you one last kiss and turns off the lights.
And there, in Doyoungâs arms and next to Taeyong, you feel safer.
The following days you feel like youâre going crazy. You feel youâre being followed and even have nightmares where Doyoung and Taeyong are found dead. Luckily for you, they have been really busy and you have barely seen them.
You can barely eat or sleep and you keep yourself occupied with work and visiting Jaehyun and Aeri. That same night, you drive back home tired. You can hardly keep your eyes on the road. As you drive through the freeway, you spot a black car behind you, speeding. You change lines and so do they. You change lines again and they do it again. You freeze.
You speed up and you notice the car speeds up as well. You grip at the wheel and avoid as many cars as you can. You exit the freeway and so does the black car. You want to cry, but you canât distract yourself from the road. The black car passes you and youâre sure itâs going to hit you so you move the car hitting a parked car.
As the news was delivered from the hospital of your car crash and no more information, Doyoung feels himself breaking. Taeyong manages to keep it together, requesting for your room number, before thanking the caller and hanging up.
When they arrive at the hospital, they are told that you suffered from minor injuries but you are dehydrated and going through so much stress.
Doyoung notices blood seeping through the bandage on your head and a small cut on your right cheek. You are unconscious and the doctor explains to them they had to sedate you since you had a panic attack, stating a car was following you. The police checked the cams and they found no evidence of a car following you through the freeway and the exit of it.
You sleep all night like you havenât done in days, and when you wake up you see Doyoung talking to a nurse and Taeyong focused on their talk. You clear your throat and rest a hand on your head. It hurts.
âYou feel okay, my love?â Doyoung approaches you.
âMy head hurts,â you answer, shutting your eyes.
âIâll bring her some food and her meds. Be right back,â the nurse says.
The nurse exits the room and you sigh. âWhat happened?â
âYou donât remember?â Taeyong looks at you.
You shake your head. âI just remember having dinner with Jaehyun and then going home. Everything after that is blurry.â
Doyoung sighs and sits on the edge of the bed. âYou said someone was following  you and hit a car. You seriously donât remember?â
You frown and rub your temples. âI donât⌠fuck.â
âItâs okay,â Doyoung places a hand on your knee. âYouâre fine.â
âDoctorâs said youâre under so much stress and had a panic attack,â Taeyong walks towards your bed. âWhatâs going on?â
You press your lips together and then bite your lip. âMark and Jackson were⌠lovers? And Mark nowâs seeking revenge.â You pause, feeling your eyes water. âHe went to my office and said heâd kill both of you and I canât sleep, I canât eat because I feel like Iâm being followed all the time.â
You start crying and cover your face with your hands. âIâm sorry I caused all this, but I just⌠Iâm scared. I wanted to tell you but I didnât know how.â
You sob and they let you cry. You need to let it out. Taeyong rubs your back in circles and Doyoung grips at your thigh.. âLove?â Doyoung calls you.
You are still covering your face with your hands and Doyoung takes one of your hands. You look at him. âHe already tried, okay? He didnât succeed because I would never let someone hurt us.â
You frown and look at him. âWhat do you mean?â
âMark tried to break into our home nights ago,â Taeyong strokes your hair. âDoyoung caught him and sort of beat the shit out of him. Heâll never bother us again. We made sure of that.â
You cry again. âI caused all of this. Iâm sorry, guys. Iâm so sorry.â
âDonât say that,â Doyoung holds your hand. âYou didnât cause a thing, thereâs just evil people out there that will try to hurt others, but I wonât let them. Youâre okay now. Weâre okay.â
A few months go by and everything is back to normal. Or almost everything.
You, Doyoung and Taeyong are at Jaehyun and Johnnyâs house having dinner. It has become something you do every Friday after work. When you all are done eating, Johnny invites Doyoung and Taeyong to the mini bar in their living room and you stay with Jaehyun. He fills his wine again and has a sip. âSo, when are you going to tell them?â He asks you.
You turn your face to him. âHow did you know?â
âYouâre not drinking and this is your favourite wine,â he shrugs. âAlso, your boobs look huge. Is that or you had your boobs done.â
You laugh and smile, nodding. âI think Iâm gonna tell them tomorrow, or maybe next week.â
âWhy do you keep waiting? They go crazy every time theyâre with Aera, make them happy by giving them the news,â Jaehyun says.
You rub the back of your neck and giggle. âItâs just that⌠sex has become way hotter, you know? Theyâre competing with each other and itâs so hot. And Iâm also horny every time because of hormones.â
Jaehyun rolls his eyes. âI canât stand you, I really canât. You all three have been fucking like bunnies for months.â
âOh, you just want to be me so bad,â you softly push him.
Jaehyun chuckles. âNot anymore. So tell me, how did you find out?â
You stare down at the pregnancy test in your hands. Those five minutes may seem like the longest five minutes in the world, but hell if it is positive your world would change. You sit down on the toilet seat and tap your fingers on the counter, getting more and more impatient with every slowly passing second.
You expect yourself to be nervous, but surprisingly you aren't. You're thrilled and you predict the results already, seeing as you have thrown up the past few mornings. You just want to make sure.
You look back down at the pregnancy test, and sharply inhale when you see that the result is there.
âPositive.â You whisper.
You feel a smile grow on your face as you stand up from the toilet and set the test on the counter. Giggling slowly, you softly rub your belly, knowing that your child is in there.
You then realise something that you should have thought of before, but slipped your mind.
âWhose baby is it?â You think of your two lovers, Taeyong and Doyoung. They will both be ecstatic as you when they find out, as you have been trying to have a baby for months.
Either way you are happy. It's Taeyong and Doyoung's child.
âAw,â Jaehyun smirks. âIâm so happy for you. If someone deserves to be happy itâs you.â
You stand up and hug him from behind wrapping your hands around his neck and kiss his cheek. âThank you. For everything.â
âDonât mention it,â Jaehyun grins. âI just hope Iâm their godfather.â
âWeâll talk later,â you mutter and he frowns. You laugh. âIâm kidding, dumbass! Of course you will be the godfather.â
The next morning, Doyoung and Taeyong bicker about how boring is the movie Doyoung chose and Doyoung stating back that Taeyong has the worst taste for movies. They're standing in front of the tv in the living room  and you roll your eyes.
âGuys, we need to talk,â you tell them as you sit them down on the sofa and stand before them.
âYou know conversations that start like this rarely end well right?â Taeyong asks. Leaning forward, he places his elbows on his knees and wrings his hands nervously. Doyoung looks to Taeyong before looking back at you.
âWhat is it, y/n?â Doyoung asks.
âMaybe I shouldâve said that thereâs something I need to tell you,â you say and you stare at your hands.
âSeriously, y/n, whatâs going on?â Taeyong asks, more worried than before.
âIâm pregnant."
ây/n thatâs wonderful! Oh my god.â Taeyong stands up
âOh god, love. For a second I thought you'd break up with us,â Doyoung follows Taeyong and both men hug you. "These are amazing news."
âThis is going to be great!â Taeyong smirks. "Oh my god. I'm so happy."
âYeah, I can just imagine you waddling around the house with a beautiful baby bump.â Doyoung smiles at you.
âAnd kissing it all the time and rubbing it, getting to feel the baby kick!â Taeyong sighs smiling.
âYouâll look so gorgeous like that y/n, I wonât know what to do with myself.â
The two showers praise after praise onto you, only stopping when you put a hand over each of their mouths.
âStop it.â You say, laughing at them.
âNever. We love you too much y/nâ Doyoung strokes your cheek.
Doyoung and Taeyong wrap their arms around you and hold you, only letting go after you clear your throat to get their attention.
âUm. Weâll have to make a doctorâs appointment within the next couple days, and I would really like it if you both came.â you smile at them.
âOf course, baby. We wouldnât miss it for the world. I promise," Taeyong kisses your forehead.
âItâll all be okay, love. Weâll be there for you every step of the way," Doyoung softly smiles.
You nod and then you remember. âI'm not sure who's the father...â
They look at each other, not having thought about that and feeling stupid that they didnât, considering only one of them is the other biological parent.
âWe could get a paternity test done? Or we could just let it be a secret and figure out who the baby is most similar to other than you. What do you want, love?â
âIt doesnât matter who the other parent is to me, Iâm just happy that I get to have a baby with the loves of my life.â you say, hugging Doyoung and pulling Taeyong to hug the two of you.
âWe are too, y/n. We are too.â
Your pregnancy went well. Of course, during the first trimester there were some things that made you question motherhood, like waking up in the middle of the night because you always had to pee. During that time, you were also really tired and you always had to take naps whenever you could.
In the second trimester, you had cravings for salty foods like pickles and anchovies, which Doyoung hated because the smell of anchovies gave him nausea.
And by the third trimester, Â you could no longer sleep on your stomach and Doyoung and Taeyong were worried about hurting the baby so they were reluctant to have sex.
One morning, two weeks before your due date, Doyoung and Taeyong had to leave for a meeting and you stayed at the penthouse.
You are settled on the couch with a warm mug of cocoa and a book. You run your hand over your belly and smile.
You suddenly feel a contraction but don't think anything of it. You know that Braxton Hicks contractions are a thing and have been experiencing them for quite some time now. Or rather it seems like it has been a long time. You put a mark in your book and breath through the contraction to keep yourself calm.
To your surprise, fifteen minutes later, you have another contraction. And another fifteen after that. You decide to place the book back on the shelf and attempt to call Taeyong. Perhaps this means that you are actually going into labor.You hold your phone up to your ear. Unsurprisingly, he doesn't pick up. You dial Doyoung's number and go to voicemail. You take a deep breath. Perhaps you're simply suffering more Braxton Hicks than you usually do.
That theory disappears when your water breaks only a few minutes after the next contraction. You take a deep breath again, trying to keep yourself calm. You call them again. And again, they don't pick up. "Shit," you whisper. You hold yourself from the shelf when you feel a new contraction.
"My phone died," Doyoung groans as he walks to his car next to Taeyong.
"I didn't bring my charger," Taeyong says and he pulls his phone out from his pants. He frowns. "I have 7 missed calls from y/n."
Doyoung stares at him and Taeyong blinks. "Shit."
"Don't you dare to speed down," Taeyong warns him as he gets in the car.
âWe are never having sex again!â You yell.
âI know⌠now wait a minute,â Doyoung pouts. You squeeze your eyes shut as the pain subsides and you can breathe again. âItâs going to be okay, love. I promise.â
"And what took you so long?!" You groan, staring at Taeyong.
"Sorry, but we're here, baby," Taeyong kisses your hand. "Everything is okay, baby."
âDo you want to squeeze a small watermelon out of your dick next?â You ask and both men blink. âIâm sorry, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to say that."
âHey, itâs okay,â Taeyong kissed your forehead. âI just wish I could understand what youâre going through.â
You squeeze both of their hands as you cry out. "Shit!"
âI know it hurts,â Doyoung kisses your hand.
âNot much longer and youâll be able to rest.â The doctor examines you and smiles.
âOkay, I think itâs time to push,â She tells you.
Doyoung and Taeyong hold your hand and offer words of encouragement while you push. And right now, you are just really in pain. It's hot, you are angry, and you are ready for this baby to join them.
It feels like a century later before you hear the cries of the newest baby. A little baby boy is placed in your arms. You smile as you look down at him.
âOh my god,â You whisper. âTae, Doie, look.â
âHeâs perfect,â Doyoung has tears in his eyes but a smile on his face.
âYou did it babe. Oh my lord, he's beautiful." Taeyong kisses your cheek.
You look down at your son and you carefully rub his head. It might be too soon, but you're pretty sure who the father is, and is a secret you won't share, or until people notice it.
"When are we having the second one?" Doyoung jokes.

âMine. Yours. Oursâ (l.h)
Pairing: Luke Hemmings X Reader
Summary: You and Luke decided to keep your relationship a secret. But what happens when he accidentally let it slip?
Warnings: The reader uses she/her pronouns, sorry if I make anyone uncomfortable with that, it was not my intention. Besides that None! Pure fluff and maybe some mistakes (English is not my first language, I��m sorry, Iâm trying and I will get better)
Word Count: 1.8 K
Authorâs note: My first Luke piece just in time for his birthday! I struggled to find inspiration for this, but it came out of nowhere and Iâm really happy with the result, hope you like it too đ Remember that all comments, reblogs and feedback are welcome! I will love to hear your thoughts on this! And you can find my other fics HERE. Thank you so so much, happy Luke Day! đŚ
âGood luck today, bub đđâ
Luke mustâve read that message time and time again in a matter of minutes, making it hard for him to erase that cheerful grin out of his face as he quickly typed a cute response. He was glad that his band mates were too busy in their own little world to notice and tease him about it.
But if he was being honest, he didnât mind at all. In fact, everything his mates said about him was true: he was an idiot in love and he wasnât afraid to show it, at least with them he wasnât.
You both came to an agreement to keep your relationship a secret for the time being. Knowing how the media worked, Luke didnât want to expose you to that so soon but, even though you said you were okay with it, he couldnât help but feel a little guilty and insecure. He notices the way you would frown when you had to pull away from each other in public, making it seem like youâre just friends or when you couldnât hold his hand or kiss him in the middle of the street. If he could, he would show you off to the entire universe, shouting from the top of his lungs how happy and in love he was with you.
But he was scared, he didnât want to lose you if all of it became too much for you, however, he knew that maybe one day youâll get tired of all the secrecy and leave. He couldnât blame you either way, but heâll be devastated without you.
Scanning the text over and over again, Lukeâs butterflies quickly became insecurities. He felt his stomach drop at the thought of not being with you and an urge to hold you as close as he could, just to make sure youâd still be there.
âMate?â Ashton called for his attention.
Luke lifted his head and noticed that he was the only one left in the van. Shoving his phone on his back pocket, he ducked his way out of the car and onto the parking lot of the radio station, ready to face yet another day of countless interviews and promos.
One of the producers of the program was already waiting for them, escorting the band around the building and giving a few pointers to take into account. Luke wasnât really paying attention to her, in his head he was still curled up in bed next to you, cuddling until one of you caved into their need of a morning coffee. He left today with the image of you peacefully sleeping under a mess of tangled sheets, wanting nothing more than to stay next to you a little longer.
âHey guys!â The host said, snapping Luke out of his happy thoughts âWe just cut to break so youâre on for the next bit. Nothing too crazy, just a few questions and a little game if youâre up for itâ
âSounds goodâ muttered the boys as they sat around the table adjusting their mics and headphones.
âHey. You good, man?â Ashton whispered to Luke âYou seem to be drifting into elevator mode againâ
The blond man nodded âJust got my head somewhere elseâ but before his friend could ask where exactly, the classic gingle of the station resonated in their headphones, letting them know that the interview was about to start.
âWelcome back everybody!â The cheerful voice of the host filled the room âIâm here with the biggest band no one's ever heard of, the Australians who took on the world by storm in 2012 and havenât stopped since, selling record after record and stealing the hearts of everyone around them. Everyone give up for 5 Seconds of Summer!â The crew around the booth clapped and cheered âWelcome, guys. Thank you for being hereâ
âThank you for having usâ Luke answered.
âGreat! I wanted to talk aboutâŚâ
It was always the same. One or two questions about their personal life, more questions regarding the album or the single, what are the plans for the tour, what city are you most excited to visit.. the boys knew it all and they knew how to handle it, always bringing the same charisma and easiness to it as they do in their everyday life.
The host was very fun as well, bringing up a few laughs and inside jokes among the four Australians, making it much easier for Luke to relax and enjoy the moment and for his mind not to drift constantly to you.
âOkay, now before you guys go. How about we play a game?â The host announced, pleased with the agreeing sounds of the band âWe are going to go around the table and Iâm going to give each of you a few prompts and sentences that you would have to answer as fast as you can, no more than 3 seconds. That sounds right? Okay, who wants to go first?â
âI can go firstâ offered Michael from across the table.
âOkay Michael, you have 3 seconds on the clock. Ready? And,,, The thing I could never live without isâŚâ
âInternetâ
âThe person who I would call to hide a dead body would beâŚâ
âMooseâ he said, earning fits of laughter across the room âWhat? I wouldnât trust these guys to hide a body! At least Moose can dig!â
The game went on like that for a few minutes. Each answer more crazy than the last, making everyone laugh and tease each other afterwards.
Then it was Lukeâs turn, being the last one on the table he had all eyes on him.
âIâm kinda nervousâ he laugh into the mic.
âDonât be, itâs just a game! Now, ready Luke?â The frontman nodded âMy guilty pleasure isâŚâ
âLove Islandâ he answered, trying to hold a giggle as he heard his band mates laugh âWhat? Youâve seen it too!â
âDidnât we all at some point? Okay, I want to do a collab withâŚâ
âYungblud, definitelyâ
âThe person who makes me the happiest isâŚâ
âY/Nâ
His eyes winded as soon as your name left his lips. He looked around and saw with panic in his stare as the laugh of his mates died down, each of them slowly realizing what the blond man just said, creating a silence that covered the room like a cloak.
A million emotions ran through his head in the matter of an instant. Cursing himself for letting it slide so easily, throwing away all the effort you put into keeping it a secret without even realizing it until it was too late. But at the same time, he felt an overwhelming sense of freedom and happiness, like he could finally let go of that baggage, leaving it behind forever.
âY/N?â Asked the host who quickly catches up âIs that..â
âThatâs my girlâ Luke said as he took a breath âThe person who makes me the happiest man on earth for sureâ
âWell this is news for everybody!â
âWell yes, we wanted to keep it on the downlow for a while but, sheâs the love of my life, mate. Couldnât keep it any longerâ
Luke smiled at the thought of you, not even trying to hide it. The secret was out, and he was fine with it, happy even! Happy that he could call you his in front of everyone. His eyes skimmed around the room and he was relieved to see smiles plastered onto his friendsâ faces.
âIt was about damn timeâ Calum said. Making everyone laugh again.
When the interviews and promos finally ended it was late into the evening and Luke went straight home. He would be lying if he said that he wasnât a little bit scared of how you might take the news. He was a lot scared. What if you didnât want this? Would you leave him? What if it became too much for you to handle?
A million questions ran through his head as he opened the door. But he felt all of his fears went away as he heard the music coming out of the kitchen.
You were listening to Taylor Swift whilst making dinner for the two of you, singing softly along the music and not really noticing Luke leaning against the kitchen frame. He watch with soft eyes as you swing and dance to the beat, audibly sighing as he took you in, falling in love once again, just like every night.
It wasnât until you both heard Petuniaâs little bark that you broke out of the spell. You turned around to see Luke kneeling down to give his little doggy a kiss and pat her head.
âHey baby!â You greeted him as you turned the stove off âDinner will be ready in a few I just need-â
âI talked about you todayâ
You froze. He what?!
âYou- you what?â
Turning to face him. You saw his tall figure walking towards you with a smile drawn into his face. Once he was fully in front of you, Luke wrapped his arms around your waist, softly looking into your eyes for any sign of discomfort or hatred.
âThey asked who makes me the happiest person in the world,â he lifted his hand to caress your cheek âand I couldnât think of anyone else that wasnât you, because there isnât one. So I said your nameâ
You felt your eyes start to water, your smile growing as the feeling of butterflies filled your stomach âSo that meansâŚ?â
âThe secret is out. No more hiding, love. The world needs to know that youâre mine and Iâm yoursâ
Happiness came over you as you lifted your arms and brought them behind Lukeâs neck, pulling him closer until your lips met. Melting in his gentle touch, you opened your mouth to deepen the kiss, feeling as if a thousand sparks covered your bodies. Muttering âI love youâsâ and sweet nothings into every kiss, allowing him to be yours and you to be his.
Luke pressed his forehead to yours, kissing the tip of your nose as you softly giggled. âI love youâ he said, looking into your eyes âI love you and Iâm so glad I can tell the world that Iâm in love with you, Y/Nâ
âNo more secrets, Luke.â You sighed as his lips traveled down your neck âThough, I have to admit that sneaking out was fun while it lastedâ
âHmm, naughty girlâ he muttered against your sweet spot. Making you quietly moan under his touch.
âGod. I love youâ
He brought his lips to yours once more, smiling into it as he heard the familiar tune of your favorite song play through the speaker.
Luke took a step back, adopting a straightened pose as he bowed in front of you, offering you his hand âDance with me, love?â
You giggled as you took his hand and placed the other one in his shoulder, letting him put his hand on your lower back and guide you through the living room in a dance that was so enchanting it felt like a movie. You laid your head on his chest as he swayed you around the house, feeling his heartbeat close.
All of your fears and doubts, they all went away. You both knew that, as long as you have each other, everything will be fine.

Our own little island
Thank you for all the feedback from my last fic :3 I really donât have any explanation for this other than....yeah...Spencer during lockdown haha.
Summary: Spencer and Y/N Have been living in their own private bubble during lockdown. YN has discovered a game and initially Spencer shows no interest...
There wasnât much to say about the last few months other than they had been⌠weird. Weird on a global scale. You almost couldnât believe how quickly everything went from normal to complete lockdown and watching the news every night had set you into complete panic mode. Both you and your highly germ-phobic boyfriend were more than happy to comply with the necessary restrictions. Spencerâs rational and calm mindset kept you both prepared and he did everything possible to reduce your anxiety. You would be forever grateful to have him by your side at such a horrible time.
For you the hardest adjustment was not seeing your work friends every day. It was odd to not spend every waking moment surrounded by all the people you loved the most. You didnât realise just how much you would miss them despite seeing them all the time anyway. Friday night became the highlight. Your team, set up by Garcia, started a weekly quiz whereby everyone joined a Zoom call and one member was chosen to deliver a set of questions. Granted, it took Rossi a few failed attempts to be both seen and heard on camera, but you had all got it working in the end. Garciaâs quiz was based on cute, fluffy cartoon characters, Rossi delivered a mastermind style quiz all about the ratpack, Hotch surprised everyone with an in depth quiz about the employees of the FBI (where you realised he knew way more about personal lives of his colleagues) and you did pop culture through the ages. You had warned Spencer that âthe history of the atomâ wasnât in keeping with the Friday night spirit, and despite being met by many groans, he ended up presenting a fun and engaging quiz where losers had to take a shot for every question wrong. No surprise that he was the only one still standing by the end.
 The truth was that despite all the chaos and uncertainty, you realised that you were lucky to have so much time spent with the man you loved. Sure, you worked together, but that was as professional as you both could manage. Stolen kisses at the back of the jet and shoulder squeezes were as close as you could get whilst working. But at home, you both had free reign of each other. You were both night owls, sleeping through most of the sunshine. You spent your evenings playing chess, re-watching old horror movies and having a lot of sex. You were sure that you were keeping your local Thai restaurant in business, living mainly off that and tubs of ice cream. It was almost therapeutic spending your time lounging around in your comfortable clothes. Hours would pass while you both sat reading in silence (you, a few chapters, Spencer, a novel or threeâŚ), his arm slowly brushing the inside of your leg as you read. On the more anxious nights, Spencer would do absolutely anything to calm you down, making sure you were okay. Heâd perform Shakespeare, teach you how to cheat cards, read to you in different languages and even let you braid the ends of his hair.
 You were very sure you were going to marry Spencer Reid.
 There was one of your hobbies that he didnât quite understand. In the first few weeks at home, you had invested in a Nintendo Switch, mainly from the push of Garcia but you had been eyeing it up since it first came out. You spent many nights on animal crossing visiting Garcia and her magic candy land island. It was one way to experience the outside world without actually being there. There was something wholly therapeutic about going fishing, planting flowers and giving gifts to your wonderful animal villagers.
 Spencer, of course, didnât really understand the appeal. Despite having the most wonderful brain youâd ever met, he seemed to have a block when it came to technology. He never discouraged you playing, but always looked over your shoulder with a furrowed brow whenever he saw you.
 âSee that, y/n, thereâs no way all those fossils would be in such close proximity to one another in such a small area.â He commented on more than one occasion. âWhat use is archaeology when they are just there on the ground for you to see?â
 âSpence, itâs a fictional world, I really donât think they took into account geographical locations of fossilsâŚâ you couldnât help but laugh whenever you spoke about it.
 âDonât even get me started on the physical anatomy of these animals! How disproportioned they are from the real thing! And the colours, y/n! Have you ever met a purple tiger before?â
 You knew that he meant no harm from his remarks and was probably getting enjoyment out of it. So youâd shrug, offer him a turn and wait for some comment about how he was going to read an FBI report from 1987 again, and open your switch back up once he was distracted.
 One night, you had stayed up late to make wishes on your island. You really needed the star fragments to craft your new DIY recipes and had spent hours posed in position, ready to make a wish. You hadnât realised that you were falling asleep and your switch was falling out of your hand, untilâŚ
 âYES! YES! Take that you stupid arachnid!â you heard a shout.
 Waking up and looking to your left, you blinked in amazement to see Spencer sat with your switch gripped between his fingers.
 âSpence? What are you doing? Are you okay?!â Many sleepless nights and bad dreams had left you very susceptible to fear when you heard shouting.
 He looked over to you and his cheeks flushed. âOh, y/n, honey I didnât mean to wake you Iâm sorry! Itâs just you fell asleep with your game in your hand, I went to turn it off and ended up talking about the stars with this wonderful little owl⌠She just tells you all these facts. And they are accurate, too! I even wished upon a star.â
 âThatâs Celeste.â You commented, and yawned. âSpence, what time is it?â
 He squinted at the screen before replying, â4am.â
 You laughed. âAnd how long have you been playing animal crossing?â
 His focus went back to the screen but he carried on talking to you. âOh, a few hours now! Iâve just caught a tarantula, the stupid son of a bitch bit me before! Did you know they could bite you in the game? I was just running around trying to get my bearings and it ran up behind me and bit me. But I showed it whoâs boss. And hey! It turns out I was wrong about the fossils, in a sense..â
 You raised one eyebrow, âDr Reid, wrong?â
 âWell, not wrong exactly. Itâs still highly unlikely that they would be so close together, so close to houses, and be found in just one dig. But I took one to the museum after I dug it up and was really surprised. I hadnât realised how accurate the information provided was about these fossils! And the details in the display, too! Youâve got yourself rather an impressive collection, y/n.â
âMhmm.â Tiredness was setting in but listening to Spencer talk about your game was more than entertaining. You sat up slowly, leaned across and rested your head on his shoulder. âWhat else have you been up to?â
 âWell I recalculated the position of some of your flowers to maximise chances of getting hybrids. I know purple is your favourite colour so I looked into the best way to get purple flowers!â Spencer was speaking in that quick, animated tone that told you he was really into something. âI even researched the quickest and most beneficial ways of befriending your villagers to maximise the gifts that they give you. I spent a lot of time talking to the Raymond character.â
 âRaymond reminds me of you, yâknow. Dapper, sophisticated, looks great in glassesâŚâ you replied, nudging his shoulder with your forehead. âHow did you find out all of this?â
 âWell, I read the whole Nookipedia website and that gave me a pretty good idea.â He turned to you and grinned. Of course, the genius had become the master of your favourite game in a matter of hours. âYou can test me on any of the villagersâ names and personality types.â
 You looked down and saw piles of notepaper, all scribbled on, splayed out across the bed. You picked one up entitled âterraforming.â Instead of trying to decipher Spencerâs handwriting, you decided to ask him about it. âSpence⌠whatâs all this paper? What are these drawings?â You tilted your head and the paper simultaneously to try and get a better understanding of his scribbles.
 âOh! Iâve been looking into reshaping your island. I came up with a few designs I thought you might like. My personal favourite is the honeybee, cos I know they are your favourite, so I calculated how we can use the terraforming tool to turn your island into a bee. Garcia would be so jealous andâŚâ he trailed off.
 âWhatâs the matter?â
 He looked back at you with big puppy dog eyes. He chewed on his bottom lip a little before he spoke. âIâve gone too far, havenât I? This was your game, your private space, I never meant to take over. You really have done a great jobâŚâ
 All you could do was laugh. You leaned over and planted a reassuring kiss on his cheek. âHonestly? Iâm really happy that youâre into this now. It means I can talk to you about it. Just you wait until you see Garciaâs island!â
âReally, youâre not mad at me?â
âIt would be impossible to be mad at you, Spence. Maybe weâll set up your own character now.â
And with that, you kissed him again, nuzzling into the comfort of his arm. âShow me what else youâve been doingâŚâ

Part: 1 I 2 I 3 I 4 I 5 I 6 I 7 I 8Â I 9Â I 10Â I Epilogue
**
The theatre was loud, opposite of its normally hushed nature. People were yelling back and forth, saws and drills screeching as they tore through wood. In the background, sewing machines could be heard, along with the occasional curse as the needle got stuck in the fabric. One person, however, was quiet, focused. The paintbrush in his hand was small. The hairs tightly pressed together in order to create the perfect details on the backdrop. Erik was hunched over, sitting cross-legged on the stage floor as he squinted at the distant forest he was perfecting. Setting your bag down in the second row, you headed up the stage stairs.
âHey,â you said softly in order not to scare him.Â
Blinking, he turned around. His glasses were on the very tip of his nose, having slipped from the slight bit of sweat that had conjured on his face from the glaring stage lights. With a green speckled finger, he pushed the frame back up to its proper position. âHey! I thought you had a project?â
You shrugged. âI did, but⌠I kind of hit a wall and needed to give my brain a rest. Iâm sorry, I guess I should have gotten lunch with you anyway.â
âThatâs alright. If you want, I still have half of my sandwich left.â
Smiling, you ruffled his hair. âThanks, Iâm not really hungry.â Minseokâs dismissive response had ruined the idea of food for you. Later you knew you would be starving, but right now food sounded like a great way to churn your stomach and see what it had been brewing all morning. âIâm just going to go hang out in the seats, if thatâs okay?â
âYeah,â he nodded. âNo one will bother you or question it. Not that anyone would notice in the first place.â
âItâs pretty crazy around here, isnât it?â
âYou missed the big explosion when Dorothy couldnât find the armchair for the second act. Turns out, someone just leaned a piece of wood for the set against it and hid it from view. Still took us half an hour to find it.â
You snorted. âWow. Iâm actually kind of sad I missed that.â You kissed his cheek, careful to avoid a smear that you were sure he had no clue about. That stupid guilt knocked once again.
The seat was only slightly comfortable, the cushion long ago worn down from a thousand performances. You stewed there in the second row. Though it wasnât appropriate during shows, you didnât think anyone would care if you set your feet on the seat in front of you. Folding nearly in half, you hid your face from those who might look your way as you cranked the handle to get the gears in your head to turn.Â
Confusion seemed like too weak a word to describe what was going on in your head. You were angry, frustrated, sad, relieved. There had to be some language in the world that tied those emotions all together. You just didnât know it. Perhaps that one word could be the pill you needed to no longer feel this way. If you could shove all of that into a single box, you would be fine. But is it ever that simple? When you closed your eyes and tried not to think of anything in particular, Minseokâs face faded into view. Youâd shake your head to drive the image away. It came back anyway.
You felt powerless against this unseen pull, this innate desire to see him again, even after what had just happened in the courtyard. Your mind made excuses, told you that if you simply asked him to explain then he would. Looking up at Erik, you sighed.Â
There was no comparison because they were two different people. Erik was the sensitive artist, the kind who went to coffee shops on Friday nights to hear a mediocre guitar player sing his âpoetryâ because he believed everyone deserved an audience. Minseok, on the other hand, was a strange combination of math lab nerd and soccer team captain. He was goofy and dorky, easily amused by corny jokes, but also had the physique of someone who ran five miles in the A.M. for the fun of it. What you couldnât figure out was what drew you to him in the first place. In any normal, not-already-dating-someone situation, you wouldnât have been interested in his type. Yet, it was almost⌠effortless, being around him. Even after all these years, you sometimes had to force yourself into conversation with Erik. Comfortable silences didnât exactly exist in your relationship, but you always chalked that up to your own personality. Now you wondered if those moments would be better with Minseok.Â
Was this a normal thing? You heard stories of college sweethearts all the time and for the last few years, you thought you and Erik would join that club. You hadnât thought about marriage, per se, but you hadnât seen an end either. The idea of coming to a fork in the road had never occurred to you. While logic and third party advice youâd casually picked up over your life told you to stick to the left, you were being drawn to the right. One road you could easily see where it led, signs, clear pastures, and everything. The other way wasnât as clear, disappearing into thick woods that were both inviting and foreboding. You didnât know if there was another side for the road to come out to. The only way you would ever find out would be to follow it.Â
You were able to sit there in that second row seat for a few hours, surprisingly, with your phone and the internet as your companion. Only occasionally would you contemplate that fork again. Left, right, left, right. Easy, hard, easy, hard. In the end, you decided you needed to see Minseok again to really decide.Â
The stage manager called it quits late in the afternoon. Erik washed up his brushes and came to meet you. âHungry yet?â You nodded, more for something else to do before you were alone again. âGood. Iâm starving.â Taking your bag like the gentleman that he was, he waited for you to stand up and then walked you out of the theatre.
Dinner ended up being a small burger joint that Erik had been craving all day. You gave no complaints as you started salivating at the thought of their fries. Surely they had to have some sort of secret, addictive ingredient to make fried potato sticks so incredibly delicious. The two of you ended up splitting a large basket of the side. It stayed equally in the middle of the table so no one could say that the other was hogging. Yes. Safe. Easy. Seeable.Â
Erik offered a follow up to dinner, but you feigned exhaustion (though there might not have been any faking truthfully, as your mind was tired from constantly running throughout the day). He walked you all the way to the door of your room. As usual, he told you goodnight and leaned in for a kiss. But unlike your normal anticipation, you flinched back to avoid his lips. He stared at you in confusion. Clearing your throat, you made it up to him by kissing his cheek before running for cover in your dorm. From the light of the hallway, you could see that Erik stood on the other side for a few seconds, hesitating to understand what had just happened, before finally walking away.Â
Teeth clenched down on your bottom lip, you pulled your phone out of your back pocket. Thankfully, Willa was still out so you were alone. The glare of your phone burned in the darkness. You squinted as you moved your thumb across the screen, unlocking it before opening the contacts. The number you wanted was easy enough to find. The pad of your thumb hovered over the little green phone. It accepted the slightest touch and switched over to calling mode. You placed the speaker to your ear.Â
Rrriiinggg. Rrriiinnngggg.Â
âHello?â
You sucked in air. Heâd answered. You didnât have a plan for this. You didnât have any sort of plan after pressing call. Youâd hoped that he was one of those people who didnât have a voicemail set up.Â
âHello? (y/n)?â
You hung up.Â
**
Minseok watched you stalk off in the exact direction he wished you hadnât. Anywhere else; he would have been fine with you going anywhere besides the theatre where your boyfriend was. His wolf growled and clawed with jealousy. Why was he so stupid? Since when was keeping his mate a secret more important than being with you? Of course he wanted to eat lunch with you, to see how you got along with his brothers. But the idea of Baekhyun figuring it out had caused him to panic. As obnoxious as Baekhyun could be, he wasnât stupid. At some point during the meal, Minseok would have done something a little overprotective and Baekhyun would have started to connect the dots. Unfortunately, heâd already picked up on something.Â
âOooo, breaking the rules, are we?â The brat even had the audacity to wiggle his eyebrows at the eldest wolf.Â
Not holding back, Minseok swung, hitting a good target on the upper arm.Â
âOw!â
âFirst, it's not a rule,â Minseok grumbled. âJunmyeon simply suggested that we donât date. Besides, youâre one to talk. Howâs Daisy?â
Baekhyun was hardly phased. He sported a cheeky grin. âSheâs great.â
Bored, Sehun asked, âCan we just go eat now? Who cares who Minseok was flirting with?â
âI wasnât flirting with her!â Minseok shouted. He explained in a lower voice, âSheâs having trouble in her math class so Iâm doing Sungkyu a favor and helping her out so she can pass. Thatâs it.â
âSo why didnât you want her to eat with us, then?â Jongin asked innocently.Â
Minseok flinched. Jongin was more observant than anyone would give him credit for. Not that Minseok was subtle in any sense of the word. âI didnât say that I didnât want her to eat with us. Knowing you all, you would have let something slip about what we are.â
âMinseok, we all caught that she was willing to join us,â Chanyeol said.Â
Huffing, Minseok grumbled, âAre we going to go eat or should I just go by myself?â
Shrugging off the odd behavior, Baekhyun turned and headed for the parking lot. Minseok was quick to follow, feeling smaller than normal surrounded by his pack members. In his head, he pictured himself running back towards the theatre, bursting through the doors, and - in true dramatic fashion - declaring you his.Â
That would be a complete disaster. He should only do that if he wanted you to never talk to him ever again.Â
Minseok hardly paid attention as Chanyeol drove them to his favorite pizza place. He was in a trance as the others took control of what to order. Physically, he sat in the booth next to Sehun with Baekhyun on the other side. His shoulder was pressed into the chipped wooden guard rail that ran along the wall but he hardly noticed the uncomfortable poke in his skin. His mind was still back at the campus. He was driving himself crazy trying to figure out how he was going to make this up to you, how he was going to explain his bizarre switch up to you. He hardly ate, which was fine since the others were more than happy to devour the three large pizzas with varying toppings. The others werenât bothered by his quietness since it was nothing new. Minseok was always more of an observer than a participant. In a time like this, it worked to his advantage.
There was no consulting Minseok when the lunch was through. They all simply piled back into the car and headed out of town towards the woods. Vague mentions of going for a run were tossed around. Minseok didnât voice any sort of agreement. He wasnât in the mood. Ha. A wolf not in the mood to run wild among the trees? He really was turned upside down because of you. While the younger ones headed straight for the trees, Minseok headed up the porch and through the front living room until he came to the kitchen. Oh, thank god. There were still beers in the fridge. He grabbed one and immediately opened it, still chugging as he walked over to the breakfast booth.Â
âDid you have fun?â
Junmyeon slid into the booth across from him. Minseok put the can down. âYeah. At first. We had fun with the project. It was when the others showed up that thingsâŚÂ went bad.â
âWhat do you mean?â Junmyeon asked with a frown.Â
âI⌠panicked. The others invited her to join us and IâŚ.â Minseok shrugged.Â
âWorried that the others would figure it out?â Junmyeon guessed. The response was a nod.Â
âFigure what out?âÂ
Shit.
Baekhyun stood in the entryway, looking back and forth between the eldest and the alpha. Minseok gulped. He thought that all four of them had gone out on a run and he hadnât heard anyone else in the house. Stepping further into the kitchen, Baekhyun asked again, âFigure what out?â
Minseok looked to Junmyeon for help. None was to be found.Â
âYou should probably tell them.â
âIâm not going to tell just Baekhyun so he can go running and tell the others and exaggerate.â
âI can always call a family meeting.â
âI donât want to make that big of a deal out of it.â
âToo late on that. Besides, thatâs the best way to get everyone here. Get it out of the way.â
âOr to get none of them here.â
âIâm still standing here,â Baekhyun scoffed.
Minseok looked at him. âI know.â
Junmyeon sighed. âBaekhyun, will you go get the others? Tell them it's important?â
He nodded. âSure. Be back in a flash.â He left, already shedding the hoodie over his head.Â
Slumping down in the booth, Minseok felt defeated. Junmyeon sensed this immediately. âIt really wonât be that bad. And they need to be prepared.â
âPrepared?âÂ
âYes. Once a pack member finds the first mate, the others will slowly start to find their own. It wonât be immediate. It could take years, really. But itâs like a domino effect. They should be aware that it's their turn next.â
It made sense. The pack was always connected, both in mind and in instinct. But it had been just them for so long, the idea of bringing in mates to the fold was odd. Minseok wasnât sure how the others would react. Fists clenched on the table, he leaned his head down. It took almost half an hour before the rest of the pack came back. Yixing had arrived first, coming back from a lab he was making up from earlier in the week. The rest came into the kitchen ten minutes later. They were knocking into each other as they yanked on shirts and pants.Â
âOkay, Junmyeon, whatâs the emergency?â Jongdae asked, very prepared to be his usual sarcastic, troll self.Â
But Junmyeon didnât reply, letting Minseok take the reins instead. Minseok didn't want to do this. He wanted to run, to keep his secret a little while longer while he figured this whole thing out. But Junmyeon was right. It was time.
â(y/n) - the girl that some of you met today⌠sheâs my mate.â
It was pure silence in the kitchen. It was unnatural in this household. The only time it was ever this quiet was when the house was empty.Â
âIâm sorry,â Jongdae said. âYou said⌠mate? Right?â Minseok nodded. He growled. âFantastic.â
âYou really found your mate, Minseok?â Yixing was more enthusiastic about the news. He looked elated, even. A small smile was creeping up.Â
Despite the stunned silence, Minseok found Yixingâs energy infectious. âYeah. I did.â
âHave you told her yet?â Chanyeol asked.Â
âShe has a boyfriend,â Jongin reminded him.Â
âOh. Right.â
âIâm working on it,â Minseok said. âI just-â His phone vibrated in his pocket. Pulling it out, his eyes widened at the name popping up on the screen. With sixteen eyes on him, he answered, frantic. âHello?â A gasp on the other end. âHello? (y/n)?â You didnât answer. Two seconds ticked by and you ended the call. He stared at his now black screen in shock. Then his brain started again. âI got to go.â
âWas it her?â Junmyeon asked.Â
âWait, I have more questions!â Baekhyun whined. Minseok was out of the kitchen in a heartbeat, jumping into his car and flying down the road. He didnât know if you were hurt or in trouble. Why had you called him? Why didnât you say anything? He was determined to find out. There was only one problem.Â
He didnât know your dorm number.Â
Youâd briefly mentioned the shared campus housing with your best friend, but that was all the information he had. Looks like he would have to find it the old fashion way.Â
Asking.Â
As soon as he parked, he headed towards the dorms, thankful at least that the two large housing buildings were close in proximity. He headed for the smaller cafeteria located in the lobby of the first building. The kitchen was closed but there were still students taking advantage of the open seating. Okay. Here it goes.Â
The first few groups that Minseok asked had never heard of you. He was starting to berate himself on what a stupid idea this was. He should have called you back and asked you to call him when you were ready because it most certainly would have gone to voicemail. But his luck soon turned around. He approached a group of three girls sitting in a corner. One of them had a camera.Â
âExcuse me?â They looked up. Minseok cleared his throat. âIâm sorry, but Iâm trying to find (y/n) (l/n)âs room. Do you happen to know her?â
One girl narrowed her eyes. âWhy do you want to know?â
Minseok swallowed. âI⌠I have her notebook. Sheâd left it behind earlier at study group. She really needs it for class on Monday but I canât get a hold of her.â Please believe his stupid lie.Â
The girl whoâd spoken made eye contact with her two friends. âSheâs in room twenty-three-nineteen. If she doesnât answer, just slide the notebook under the door.â
He could almost jump from elated joy. âThank you!âÂ
Taking off, he headed for the stairs. Your dorm room was only on the second floor so it didnât take long to follow the signs until he was right outside your door. Only now did the possibility that your roommate would be the one to answer cross his mind. What lie would he have to come up with then? He had to take the chance.Â
After knocking, he waited, shifting from foot to foot in an attempt to release the nervous energy surging through his body. The door swung open.Â
It was you. Thank goodness.Â
You were not the same level of relieved. âWhat the hell are you doing here?â
Crap. He probably should have thought of that. âYou called me.â
You looked back over your shoulder before stepping out into the hallway, letting the door shut behind you. âSo? That doesnât mean you can just show up here!â
âI need to talk to you.âÂ
You licked your lips. No, please donât do that. Itâs too tempting already to grab your face and kiss you against the door. Without speaking, you went back into your room. Well, that was a bust. But before he could walk away with slumped shoulders, you came back, this time with shoes on and your bag. âLetâs go.â
He gave no protest as you led him out of the dorm and into the dark. He had no idea where the two of you were headed, but he planned on embracing whatever came his way. The two of you were going to talk. His heart was thumping hard against his sternum. He was getting more alone time with you. Who knew what would end up flying out of his mouth in these next few hours. Would this be the night of truths and revelations?

(special shoutouts to @tkuhnhacklâ for helping me edit and to @coffee77catâ for sending me so much hot Tom for inspo)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Panic.Â
You're 3 shots and a couple of drinks deep when you spot your ex boyfriend through the crowd. You could've sworn it was a drunken hallucination but the second glance tells you it's a nightmare come to life. The fear sets in quickly when you shoot a side eye to your best friend at the exact same time she spots him. She's in the middle of the dance floor with some random guy attached to her back so she can't do much to help you besides motioning for you to get some air.Â
The drink in your hands is funneled down your throat before you're speed walking to the bathroom on the verge of a panic attack, praying your ex didn't see you. The breakup was nasty and only happened a couple of weeks ago, though it felt like years since you've seen him. The relationship should've ended months before. You kept making excuses for him and blaming it on yourself. Looking back on it, the toxicity was all him and you finally figured out you deserve better than that. So you left.Â
He didn't take it so well. Called you every name in the book, tried to turn your friends against you, even tried to convince your parents to talk to you for him. You knew you made the right decision when he trashed your car before your 12 hour shift. Even though it was finally over, the emotional trauma left behind wasn't so easily forgotten, which is why even seeing him sent you into fight or flight mode.Â
The path to the bathroom is crowded and dark. You definitely have a slight buzz that isn't helping either. You finally spot the small sign and practically run around the corner to get there when you run face first into a broad chest and nearly fall backwards, but two strong hands catch you before you hit the ground.Â
"Oh my god I'm so sorry are you okay? I didn't even see you comi- hey is that you y/n?"
Before you get a chance to be embarrassed about the situation you quickly recognize the large man in front of you as Tom Wilson from the Washington Capitals. Or just Tom to you.Â
"H-hey Tom, it's okay I ran into you. Thanks for uh, catching me," you stutter out, still in panic mode from seeing your ex. You see the confusion on his face as soon as you feel your hands shaking on top of his arms. You've known Tom for a couple of years now through your job. You started as a nursing student intern at Medstar and eventually worked your way up to becoming a full time pediatric nurse. The Capitals often visited the kids staying there and you happened to meet Tom one day on their Christmas visit, immediately blushing and thinking of how hot this guy was. Your coworkers were quick to spot how he was making you feel and kept teasing you about it until he walked in and heard the whole conversation. Your face when you saw him in the room had to have been priceless; he cracked up when you turned around and realized. It was one of the most embarrassing moments of your life but when you went to lunch that day there was a note waiting for you on the fridge. "You're cute when you're embarrassed. Text me sometime. Xo Tom" with his number attached to it. You couldn't believe he had an interest in you but you needed to play it cool and wait a few days to text him.Â
You talked to him constantly the first couple of weeks, and you really thought there could be something between you two. However, with both of your jobs being so damn hectic, there was little to no time to see him and things fizzled out pretty quickly. You were bummed but the two of you still occasionally talked over the last few years and hung out as friends a couple of times.
Now he's standing there holding you, on the brink of a breakdown, in the middle of a loud and crowded club. Perfect circumstances, you think sarcastically.Â
He lifts your chin up with one finger and looks in your eyes before he speaks this time. "Hey look at me. Are you okay? What's wrong?"
"I uh, saw my ex on the dance floor and I'm kinda freaking out," you manage to get out while looking over your shoulder for any sign of your ex.Â
Tom's demeanor instantly shifts from soft and serious to protective. "Has he hurt you? Do I need to beat his ass?" Now he looks around despite not knowing what he looks like. You chuckle to yourself but put a hand on his chest.Â
"No you don't need to beat his ass but I appreciate the offer. He's never touched me but he can get scary when he's drunk. It didn't end well," you undersell how badly it ended so Tom wouldn't actually kill him tonight. "Just the sight of him put me into a panic but I feel a bit better now."
His eyes fixate back on you to find worry still written on your face. "Well now that I know that I'm not letting you be alone in here. Nobody should ever feel that way," he all but barks out. You flinch away from the sound slightly, his thumb rubbing your arm instinctively when he notices. "Do you still want to go to the bathroom for a minute? I'll wait here for you."
His strong presence alone calms you enough to feel okay again, though you want to make sure you don't look a mess before returning to your best friend. "Yeah, that would be great actually. Thanks, Tom," you smile at him as you slipped into the bathroom. Your hands brace the sink as you take a look at your flustered state in the mirror, not too bad for someone who basically saw a ghost. Your face is beet red but other than that, not even a hair out of place. Impressive. Youâre glad for at least that, Tom seeing you like that and looking like a hot mess would've been even more embarrassing. You smooth your outfit swiftly before returning to Tom.Â
"You okay?" he asks at your return and you give him a small nod. "Okay good, let's go get you some water," he holds his hand out for you to take and intertwines your fingers easily, making your heart skip a beat. Your eyes flick down to your hand and back up to Tom's face just in time to see the hint of a smile pulling at his lips while you weave through the crowd. The flush on your face is more prominent now, youâre sure of it.Â
The heavy beat thumps against your chest, distracting you from your irregular heartbeat and dizzy thoughts. You run into someone and realize it's y/b/f/n.Â
"Oh my god, y/n. Are you okay?! Sorry I couldn't get away from that guy in time to be with you. I think your ex left but I can't be 100% sure-" their rambling stops when they realize you have a giant man attached to your arm. "Oh wow, Tom right? How lucky is y/n that you're here tonight?!" They grab Tom for a hug, he looks surprised that they remember him and returns the hug, never letting go of your hand. "I'm so happy you're here!" you hear them yell in Tom's ear over the music. They look between the two of you and gesture back to the dance floor, "Shall we?" They reach for your free hand and drag both of you onto the crowded dance floor. Your eyes meet Tom's again as you raise your eyebrows at him, earning a laugh.Â
You are starting to feel better and more comfortable just by having Tom's hand in yours. A poppy song starts playing so you start bopping along when Tom suddenly twirls you around and draws you back into his arms, face inches from yours when you start to feel the butterflies. It feels like you could stay this way for hours and be content with it.Â
You sense Tom is thinking the same when he gives you a shy smile but he immediately surprises you by turning you back around and attaching himself to you, hands gripping your waist. Youâre glad to be facing away from him just so he couldn't see the growing flush on your face. His mouth dips down to your ear and you shiver as he whispers, "Is this okay?" in a low voice. Your enthusiastic nod makes him giggle; meanwhile his hands grip your hips even tighter. Y/b/f/n catches a glimpse of you and wiggles their eyebrows up and down with a smirk. If you were closer to them, you would've smacked them in the arm.Â
Y/b/f/n picks up their phone and is on a brief call before striding back over to you and Tom. "Hey, my friend is gonna pick me up and I'm staying at their place. Tom, you okay to take y/n home?" they ask suggestively while looking between the two of you; you both just laugh and Tom speaks up first.Â
"Yeah I think I can handle that, as long as it's alright with y/n," he looks down at you expectantly and your heart speeds up once again. The effect that one sentence had on your body was almost embarrassing.Â
"Y-yeah, yeah. Go with your friend, be safe," you completely stutter out.Â
Y/b/f/n pulls you in for a hug and murmurs, "You owe me one, kid. Be safe and have fun," they wink at you and wave goodbye as they disappear into the crowd.Â
âŚ.
The traumatic events of the night are just a memory now, Tom's frame against yours the only thing on your mind. The way his hands travel your body, how perfectly his body moves in sync with yours, the tension between you is electric and you both know it.Â
In the spur of the moment, you turn to face him and interlock your hands behind his neck while pushing your hips towards him. His eyes sweep down, taking in your form while his lip is drawn between his teeth. The rhythm of your bodies never stops, just gets closer and more desperate for each other. The world seems to freeze when he looks into your eyes, down at your lips, and back up to your eyes again, silently asking permission for what he's wanted to do all night. You stop breathing for just a second before moving your hand to his cheek and going in for the kiss.Â
It's slow at first, wanting. The way his lips envelope yours sends your mind wandering, hoping this night ends with you in his arms (and his bed). His tongue slowly slides into yours, making you melt into him even more. The rhythm of your tongues mimics your bodies and you're craving his touch everywhere. His hands come up to rest on your ass and you immediately remember you're in a public place. You break the kiss just to catch your breath while looking up at him through your lashes, seeing the blush on his face makes you want to jump on him right then and there.Â
"Do you maybe⌠wanna get out of here?" you ask shyly, as if you weren't just dry humping on a crowded dance floor. His low laugh sends shivers down your spine as he nods.
"My place or yours?" he asks in your ear. Before moving away he places a soft kiss right below your earlobe and you can feel your heart rate speed up instantly.Â
"Yours? If that's okay?" His hand finds yours and the walk outside feels unbearable. The crowd of people only slightly part to let you by, every moment you're not attached to him feels like eternity. It's a bit chilly outside and with how hot you already are, it makes your whole body shiver.
You're finally at his car and he opens the door for you, a hint of amusement in your smile. "Wow, what a gentleman, thank you," you tease, but before you can get in he lays a firm smack on your ass. The feeling goes right to your clit and turns you on more than you'd care to admit. His smirk shows he knows exactly what you're thinking.
"What was that about being a gentleman?" he breathes out while closing your door. The second he gets in the car, you are buzzing with electricity. Everything he does gets you hotter. The car revs and you're speeding off to his place, his hand on your thigh moving upwards until you think he's finally going to touch you but then he pulls away.
By the time you get to his house, your underwear is soaked with anticipation. He practically throws the car in park and runs around to your side of the car to open the door for you. Even for a hookup he's a gentleman, although a small part of your mind wants it to be more than a hookup. You never stopped thinking about him even while dating your ex.Â
Tom's hand reaches for yours as he helps you out of the car, both of you eager to get inside. He fumbles with his keys before the door is finally unlocked. As soon as you walk in, he slams the door shut and backs you up into it. Your breath catches in your throat while you take in the sight of him; the way his shirt strains against his biceps, how his pants hug his waist just right. His eyes are doing the same to you while one hand hits the door next to your face and the other cups your cheek. He can't stop staring at your lips when he whispers, "You have no idea how long I've wanted this." It makes your knees go weak, but his body pressed against yours keeps you upright. His kiss is urgent but tender, one hand roaming your body. The kiss deepens and you're left breathless, fingers tugging on his hair and clawing at his chest, silently asking for more. He gets the hint easily and suddenly his hands grip under your thighs as he picks you up. The kiss is never broken while he walks backwards towards his room, his knees abruptly hit the side of his bed and you both fall on it, giggling the whole time. He puts his hands on your legs and picks you up once again, turning you around so he's on top of you. His kisses trail from your neck down to the hem of your top and his hands find the bottom of it. He looks up at you asking for permission, so you lift yourself up so he can take it off easily.Â
His eyes go wide as soon as he sees your bare chest. "So fucking beautiful," he groans while moving his mouth towards your already hard nipples. His mouth is around one licking and sucking and you can't help the small moans escaping your mouth. Your hand finds his shoulder and you motion for him to take his shirt off. He's straddling you now and easily removes his shirt, the sight one you could never get tired of. His wide frame is chiseled and you can't help but reach out and touch it. Your hands trace his muscles before finding his button and undoing it. He bites his lip and sighs at the almost contact but you continue to move slowly just to tease him. Once his pants are finally off, he moves down the bed to take yours off. A whine catches in his throat when he sees you in nothing but your panties. He comes back up to kiss you, tongue darting in your mouth with impatience. His finger moves down your body leaving goosebumps in its place. He hooks your underwear around it and pulls them down around your ankles. His finger finds your clit easily, making you moan into his mouth. His thumb starts circling your clit while his strong fingers move to your soaked pussy. He grunts when he feels just how wet you are.Â
"Fuck baby," he pants out, "so fucking wet for me huh?" You just nod in response, unable to form words. "Is this okay?" he asks while mouthing sloppy kisses down your stomach.Â
"Yes, yes babe," you whine. The pulse in your clit is making it hard to not push his whole face down so he can give it the attention it needs. "Please, Tom."
His tongue finally finds your throbbing clit, slow and timid motions at first while he gets a feel for what you like. He licks a stripe down and back up through your slit, nose brushing your clit on the way back up. Tomâs tongue is moving in circles making your legs shake. He sucks your clit into his mouth and you can't control the noises that come out of your throat. His mouth comes off of you with a pop and he's smirking up at you between your legs before he suddenly puts one finger into you making you gasp. He pumps it into you a couple times before adding a second one and curling them in just the right way. Your chest is heaving and you can feel your orgasm building slowly when he pulls out of you. He stands up next to the bed and pulls his boxers down, hard cock finally springing free. You look up at him through your lashes and reach out to touch it. His eyes flutter shut the moment your hand is around him, slowly pumping him before you're kneeling in front of him to put it in your mouth.Â
He looks so fucking pretty like this- lips red and swollen, dick eager to be in your mouth. His hand grips your hair, pulling your head back slightly before you lean in to kitten lick the tip. You swirl him around in your mouth briefly before taking half his length in your waiting mouth. His hips buck at the contact, fist tightening in your hair. You can feel him watching you, so you look up at him innocently before moving so his cock hits the back of your throat. The moan that leaves his mouth is so fucking hot so you keep going, moving his other hand to your head so he can better direct your movements. He goes gently at first but feels your moans around him so he increases his speed and starts to fuck your face. There's spit running out of your mouth and tears threatening to come out of your eyes but the look on his face makes your pussy quiver.Â
He slows his motions and lets go of your face before helping you up. He signals for you to get on the bed while he gets a condom from his bedside table then rips it open with his teeth. Once it's on, he climbs over you and looks over your body before finding your eyes and brushing your hair back. You can't help but smile and blush at how the whole night has played out.Â
His thumb comes up to rub at your cheek before asking quietly, "You ready?" You nod and return the favor of pushing his hair back while locking your legs behind him. He runs his cock through your folds and pushes into you gently. You both gasp at the feeling while he bottoms out. He gives you a second to adjust when he pulls almost all the way out and thrusts back in, making you whimper. Your walls are already fluttering around him, nails gripping his back.Â
"Fuck y/n, I'm not gonna last when you feel this fucking good," he groans in your ear. He picks up the pace and starts thrusting even quicker, pelvic bone hitting your clit in the best way. You can feel yourself getting close when he slightly changes angles and makes you feel like you're floating. You move your body along with him, nails dragging down his back causing him to bite your shoulder. His cock is hitting in just the right place and you start to unravel underneath him, walls clenching as your orgasm hits.Â
"Fuck Tom, I'm cumming," you whine while bucking your hips to meet his. The moan that escapes your lips when you finish just inches him closer. You're still out of breath, but you clamp your walls down on him making him curse softly. His thrusts become erratic and you know he's close.Â
"Cum for me, babe," you whisper in his ear and pull on his hair, eliciting a loud gasp. He pumps into you a few more times and then stills while a string of curses falls from his lips. He kisses you sweetly before collapsing next to you on the bed.Â
You both look at each other at the same time and you move to put your head on his panting chest. His arm comes firmly around you and gives you a small squeeze, fingers running through your damp hair.Â
"Wow," he breathed out. "You're incredible, you know that?"
You can't help but giggle. Only 1 night spent with him and you already feel like a princess.Â
"You're pretty incredible yourself."
"Remind me why we've never done that before?" he teases with a smirk. "Can I ask you something?" You just nod lightly in response. "Can I take you on a proper date?"
Your head whips up to look at him, the cheesy grin on your face hard to hide. His eyes light up as soon as he sees your expression.Â
"I would love that, Tom," you answer cheerfully and he returns the smile. He leans down to kiss you and you both let out a content sigh.Â
Hopefully this was the beginning of something special.Â

Disco 3.08: The Sanctuary
This week IRL was a real mixed bag for me: a lot of messy and barely-manageable anxiety about my health, my day job, and uhhhh *gestures outside*âbut also Iâve recently fallen in love (from a responsible social distance)âso itâs been equal parts re-writing professional emails to edit the panic attack out of my tone and gazing dreamily at Discord notifications with cartoon hearts in my eyes. It feels like my life is going to hell in the cutest, coziest handbasketâwhich is to say that Michael Burnham could not possibly feel like a more relatable character to me right now.
I continue to have issues with the writing at a strange medium-levelâsomewhere between micro, where the dialogue and characters are really good, and macro, where Iâm digging the pace of the overall season, it almost feels like something went wrong in the assembly process, and the script ended up a little bit less than the sum of its perfectly good parts. Again.
But thatâs such vague criticism as to be nearly meaningless, and itâs hardly the most interesting level to spend time on anyway. If I zoom out, the parallel season arcs of âgetting used to the futureâ and âthe mystery of the Burnâ are hanging together wayyyyy better than the Red Angel saga did last year.
And if I zoom in? This episode was funny as shit, wtf.
The discourse re: Tilly these past couple of weeks has been bullshit, and I have a whole angry thing to say about itâbut honestly, if you canât appreciate Doug Jones and Mary Wiseman as a comedic duo, Iâm not really mad: mostly I pity the lack of joy in your heart.
Everyone on this show is so funny. Dougâs prissy little delivery absolutely slaughters me (âExecute!...?â), Mary will make a face sometimes that has me screaming laughter into my hands, and Iâve gone on beforeâand will againâabout Sonequa Martin-Greenâs egregiously underrated comedy chops.
They were obviously casting for folks w/ jokes in the new season too: David Ajada is no slouch in the dry-delivery or the goofy-face department; his energy and chemistry with Sonequa are as suited to comedy as they are to romance (i.e. extremely đĽľ). Anthony Rapp and Wilson Cruz we knew about, but Blu del Barrioâa certified tiny baby!!!âholds their own and lands every smartass whiz-kid one-liner just on the right side of âtoo precious to stand.â (I almost always at least chuckle, and never roll my eyes, and for a âteen geniusâ character thatâs literally as good as it gets.) And living legend Michelle Yeoh is clearly having the time of her life, omfg.
Discoâs not funny-funny like Lower Decks, but they do funny-on-purpose better than any live-action Trek except maybe DS9. They have such a deep comedic bench they donât even need Tig Notaroâthey have her on just to flex, I presume.
(I donât know if Iâm predicting, per se, that Strange New Worldsâwith Rebecca Romjinâs deadpan, Anson Mountâs twinkly eyes, and Ethan Peckâs twinkly-eyed deadpanâis going to have a tone somewhere between Disco S3 and LwDâbut I mean... it kinda has to, right? And you know they kept the number for Rainn Wilsonâs agent.)
***
At the start of this episode, I was âsure, why the fuck notâ about First Officer Tilly; by the end, I was completely on board. And to everyone whoâs still wringing their hands about âthe real militaryâ this (always from people who have no idea how actual militaries work, lol) and âLt. Nilssonâ that (she... already has a job on the ship? And no character traits besides âstoicâ and âfurrows browâ? Oh, I get itâsheâs skinny and blonde)âyâall are kind of embarrassing me.
âRankâ and âpositionâ (and âseniorityâ and âday-to-day dutiesâ...) arenât the same thing, in Star Trek or any IRL military. Yes, the permanent first officers of normal-duty Starfleet ships weâve seen have usually been command-division officers with the rank of Commanderâbut not always. Star Trek: Discovery-A, if you will, is a unique show about a unique ship in a unique situation: âB-b-but thatâs not how they do it on Star Trek!!!â isnât a legitimate criticism, not of thisâitâs the mournful cry of an entitled pissbaby who isnât having their hand held all the way to the fireworks factory.
Hereâs what an argument supported by the text of the first 37 episodes of Star Trek: Discovery actually looks like: Sylvia Tilly is nervous and lacks self-confidence, but once she gets over herselfâwhich she can do pretty much instantly in a crisis, even when hilariously intoxicatedâshe is competent as hell. In lower-stakes situations, without intense pressure to focus her attention, she sometimes gets sidetracked by her own insecurities; at her best, she channels that anxious energy into ambition, drive, and being scrupulously organized.
The only person Tilly doesnât always get along with is Stamets, and even Stametsâs husband thinks heâs an asshole. Since Season 1, weâve seen her easily socializing with the rest of the crew, who seem to universally adore her. And sheâs also happy to leave her social comfort zone at a momentâs notice: she aligned herself with Ash Tyler (miss you, Shazad!) when no one else would, and she instantly befriended Po even when Po was in Weird Feral Alien Princess mode and Tilly had salad in her hair. She doesnât like confrontation, but sheâs brave enough to initiate it anyway if she needs to, and sheâs compassionate with other peopleâs feelings while still setting firm boundaries. (Her graceful dodge of Rhysâs tipsy kiss at the party in 1.07 lives rent-free in my head to this day.)
No, Tilly didnât finish the Command Training Programâbut she started it, which is almost certainly more command training than any of the lieutenants whose names we know, all of whom are Ops or Science personnel with, presumably, specialized non-command training of their own. The same could be assumed for any unseen ranking officers on this science ship with an entirely volunteer skeleton crew.
And seriously, about Nilsson: sheâs my #3 background bae after Octopus Head and the lady on Pikeâs Enterprise with the spiky red face, but her job is Spore Drive Ops, not personnel. If sheâs running after Saru with a holo-clipboard, whoâs going to look serious and push holo-buttons when thereâs a Black Alert? *drops holo-mic* Drumhead!
***
The stuff on Kwejian, though. Ooof. Olâ Two-Takes Frakes directed this one, and between the kinetic energy he always adds to the camera and the scintillating performances he evokes, things stayed moving so briskly I almost didnât notice Bookâs entire âhomeworldâ was a rental house outside Vancouver, a couple acres of adjacent woods, and like six or seven people.
Itâs a hot mess in retrospect, but in the moment it gave us the intensity of Book and Kyheem trying to hurt each otherâs feelings by poking at 15-year-old wounds, which as a sibling with complicated sibling relationships I found both funny and devastatingânot to mention Frakes directing âshaky bridgeâ explosion falls at an obvious intensity of â10â on an outdoor location shoot. It falls apart at the slightest scrutiny, but I canât lie, on first viewing I was totally along for the ride.
***
Iâm dying to see where this Georgiou thing goes. It doesnât feel like a stretch to assume she got Cronenbergâd a couple weeks ago, probably to get her under the thumb of this centuryâs Section 31, and that her arc is going to take Michelle Yeoh off this show in a way that sets up the S31 show. But also, I donât care so much whether Iâm right, I just want to watch Michelle Yeohâand Sonequa Martin-Green, and also David Cronenberg tbh, and bring back Shazad Latif while youâre at itâget wherever theyâre going.
Itâs also a fun and interesting direction to take the comically-evil comic relief character and show that her performative moustache-twirling is partly habit and partly a transparent emotional defence against very real fear and vulnerability. Weâre all products of our circumstances, and a radical enough change in circumstances can afford almost anyone at least the opportunity to change. I canât say Emperor Georgiou would have been my first choice of protagonist for that storyline, but itâs not like Michelle Yeohâs not going to fuckinâ crush it.
***
Miscellany:
So the Burn had an origin point, and now that point is broadcasting a signal thatâs somehow both a haunting melody that everyone seems to knowâbut no one can remember learningâand a Federation distress signal. What the fuck, yâall. I have full-body goosebumps just typing that.
Saru workshopping his own captainly catchphrase with the aid of Tillyâs extreme sincerity and organizational skills is probably the funniest thing thatâs ever happened on this showâfollowed closely by the uncomfortably lingering reaction shots when heâs trying them out on the bridge đ (And omg please give Rhys and Bryce the dumbass buddy-comedy C-plots they deserve next season, I beg you.)
I would do a little âprop watchâ entry on those Kwejianian(?) bolt-throwing rifles, but Iâd have to stop drooling over them first. âCurvy polished hardwoodâ seems to be New Trek shorthand for âextra sleek and futuristicâ (cf. the bridge of the USS Titan in the LwD finale), and I have to say: I am fully into it.
Restating my prediction that we will not see Detmer and Owosekun get together this season, because we will find out that theyâve been together for ages. Everyone knewâPike even knew!âit just never came up in front of the audience before. That would be one of the cutest ways to do it imho, and one of the funniest too, especially as a meta-joke about how much character development didnât happen in the first two seasons. (That said, if we get to see their first kiss, I will be screaming with incoherent joy for days, so this is a real win-win for me.)
Speaking of cute: IRL spouses Mary Wiseman and Noah Averbach-Katz, both Julliard-trained actors (itâs where they met!), canât quite hide their chemistry in the scenes between Tilly and Ryn. I loved seeing Tilly be a hardass when Ryn was rude to the captain, but that sparkle in her eyes didnât quite match the context <3
And speaking of people who are VERY OBVIOUSLY IN LOVE: that last scene with Book and Michael, and his nervous little âyeah, I said itâ eyebrow lift, and her irrepressible giggle as sheâs walking away... it was almost too much. Especially right after the queer-family scenes with Stamets and Culber and Adira. My poor heart is going through a lot lately, and I guess Iâm just glad Season 3âs emotional intensity is melting it with soft sweet scenes like that instead of kicking it down repeated flights of stairs like Season 1.
***
Next week: everyone stops caring about the Burn and starts trying to solve an even more important mysteryâwhy is this (holographic) dude wearing an early-2360s uniform with an early-2370s combadge?

Summary: College AU/Famous!Blaine and Fanboy!Kurt - Kurt POV
Kurt really doesnât have time to figure out the dating world between being a freshman at prestigious theatre school, LAADA, Â and his active but secret blogging life in the Sing!Fandom. So what if Sing! ended last year? There are still fics to read and actors to follow. Especially the uber talented heartthrob lead, Blaine Anderson. He can act. He can sing. He can even dance. Heâs gay. Heâs out. And heâs only 24. Kurt is willing to twiddle his thumbs and click refresh until Blaine Andersonâs next project.
He just didnât expect the next project to be on his roommate Rachelâs new TV show.
Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4
Even Better Than the Real Thing (5/15)
Kurt is sitting at his desk, completing his essay on queer subtext in âCatsâ when Rachel rushes in the front door like a hurricane. âPlease help me clean, Kurt. Theyâll be here soon.â
âWho will be here when?â Kurt is immediately irritated.Â
âYou know, the cast, hair and make up, whomever can make it. I really felt that as the star of the show that I should be hosting a get together evening. Iâve got the wine, we can warm up some easy appetizers, cut some veggies. Oh and can you make your guacamole?-â
âWait what? Did you even think to ask me if tonight worked for me? My essay is due tomorrow.â
âI did-â Kurt stares at her. âI didnât ask? I mean I thought I mentioned it last weekend.âÂ
Kurt sighs deeply. âYou didnât.â
âOkay Iâm sorry. But come on, Kurt. I know your essay must be almost done. You never leave anything to the last minute-â
âUnlike some other people, apparently.â Kurt groans and shakes his head but begrudgingly stands up and makes his way to the kitchen. âYou clean. Iâll do the guac and veggies.â Rachel thanks him profusely and he shoos her away so he can get the food done. He will need to shower and change before anyone arrives. And clean his room. Because though he wonât ask Rachel whoâs coming, heâs not going to risk Blaine Anderson thinking his home is a mess.Â
...
By the time Kurt feels ready enough to enter the gathering from the safety of his bedroom, having carefully chosen a definitely flattering but not trying too hard outfit for the occasion - a skintight white long sleeved shirt under a dark grey vest with tight dark blue jeans - there are already a good ten guests in his living room, milling and drinking wine and laughing too loudly. But so far, no Blaine Anderson. He chats for a bit with Sarah and Joan, two of the hair and make up folks, and tries very hard to be interested in whose hair is the hardest to get consistently correct, and not to be distracted by who is not there.
âRachel!â The door swings open about half an hour later and there he is, giving Rachel a big hug, handing her a bottle of red wine, and apologizing for being late. Kurtâs heart beat quickens slightly but he notices that he is not going into full on panic mode. Theyâre friends, buddies, and of course theyâll talk tonight. Yes, itâs Blaine Anderson and yes, heâs really very gorgeous, but itâs a bit more like hot gay friend has entered the premises and less like heâs holding his breath to catch a brief glimpse of Sing!âs most eligible bachelor. He can do this.
âYou almost missed your chance,â Kurt wanders over and hands Blaine a Corona with lime. âItâs the last one but lucky for you, I set it aside.â
Blaine smiles widely, looking genuinely thankful - Kurt thinks more appreciative than a saved beer would warrant. âYou know my drink of choice?â
âGiven that itâs all youâve been drinking each time Iâve seen you - I guess I know your âdrink of choice.â Kurt makes quotation marks with his fingers.
Blaine raises the bottle in a cheers-like gesture. âSo this is your home,â Blaine takes in the apartment, looking at both Kurt and Rachel.Â
âTwo bedrooms, two bathrooms-âÂ
âThat was a requirement,â Kurt adds. âI have a very particular nighttime skin routine and there was no way I was competing with Rachel Berry for the mirror.â Blaine laughs and keeps smiling at him with those sparkly eyes. Itâs unnerving.
âKurt, why donât you give him a mini-tour? I need to refill the Sangria bowl,â Rachel says, flitting off to the next thing.
âWhy donât you, then?â Blaine says. Kurt surveys the room. The apartment is not that big.
âWell, this is the living room slash kitchen slash main room.â I mean, Blaine canât really think there is that much of a tour to take, but heâll humour him. Kurt leads Blaine to Rachelâs unfortunately overly pink room and bathroom. âI couldnât convince her that it was not a bold choice, but a bad choice.â Blaineâs eyebrows rise as he takes in light pink walls with splashes of bubble gum pink accents, and he laughs genuinely at Kurtâs commentary. Neither this tour, nor Kurt, are really that amusing but okay. Blaine Anderson is having fun.Â
âI guess she really is a girly girl at heart,â Blaine says as he follows Kurt into his own room. Much more soothing, and more adult, shades of blues and greys, with some bold orange accent pillows on his bed for flare.Â
âA girly girl can still have taste - and that room, Blaine, is too much pink.âÂ
âI dated a guy last year who had a pink room,â Blaine rolls his eyes at the memory as he sits down on Kurtâs bed. Okay. Guess theyâre staying here for a bit.
âJust really proud?â Kurt pulls out his desk chair and faces Blaine.
âA proud gay guy can still have taste,â Blaine mimics, looking approvingly around Kurtâs room.
âIndeed.â Thereâs a brief pause and Kurtâs heart starts to race again, worried it might get awkward. âWait - didnât you say you couldnât meet anyone while working on Sing!?â
âYeah, but it didnât stop me from trying. Or sort of trying while enjoying,â Blaine pauses. âThe LA scenery.âÂ
Now Kurt laughs, shaking his head to himself. âHonestly, I canât imagine having a life where there are so many options that they are all just part of the pretty scenery. Although I suppose Mr. Pinkâs room didnât qualify.â
âMr. Pink,â Blaine pauses, looking like he is assessing whether he should say whatever is on the tip of his tongue. âHad a body to make up for the room,â Kurtâs eyes widen but he wills himself to play it cool. No big deal. Friends chatting about past relationships. âSo we had a week of torrid sex and the rest is history.â
Kurt bites his lip. This image is too much. Blaine Anderson having torrid sex is too much. He knows heâs red. He just says the first thing that comes into his head, âHonestly, Blaine, Iâm from Lima, Ohio and your life right now, itâs outside my mid-western frame of reference.â
Blaine chuckles again but he nods. Does he think Kurt is just hilariously innocent? âI know. You know, I donât completely forget what itâs like to arrive in LA from small town Ohio. Iâm only 24. Did you ever get out to Columbus for any of the LBGT youth dances or game nights? I used to do that. Even got my first kiss from a drunken college freshman behind the community centre. Very romantic.â
âNope.â Kurt answers quickly. âNever went to Columbus. No dances or games. No kisses.â Heâs embarrassed but what else was he going to say? Blaineâs suspicion of his innocence confirmed.
âNo first kisses?â Blaine repeats and Kurt shakes his head quickly.Â
âWhy is that so hard to believe? I thought we already discussed that Lima is not exactly a gay mecca.â
âNo, itâs not. Itâs not. Lima would not exactly be the best place to meet someone.â Blaine agrees, shaking his head and looking down slightly before looking right back into Kurtâs eyes. âItâs just that,â Blaine breathes in, âYouâre hot.â
What. The fuck.Â
Great. Now the silence is going to be super painful because Kurt is certain no coherent words will come out of his mouth ever again.Â
âAnyways,â Blaine bites his lower lip, shaking off his momentary slip of the tongue. âThank you for the tour.â Kurt gets up to lead them back out to the others. âYouâre one up on Mr. Pink.â
âFor my decor? I hope so.â Kurt manages to speak words.
âIn all areas,â Blaine says quietly from behind him and before Kurt can register the second less than subtle compliment in five minutes, and turn around, Blaine is back in the crowd, chatting with Joan and Sarah as if nothing could be more interesting than the perfect hair gel. As if he did not just say what he said.Â
Kurt is done. For the night. Maybe forever. Heâs sure heâs not capable of any more small talk with echoes of âYouâre hotâ and âIn all areasâ singing through his head. He quietly sneaks into his bedroom and closes the door. He may be innocent and even naive. But Blaine Anderson was most definitely flirting with him. He was honest, at least about his relationship past (or lack thereof), but Blaine didnât run away. He stayed. And stared. And flirted.Â
This situation is real. And very complicated.Â
He needs to stop blogging.Â
Out of respect for my source, who is a good friend, I need to stop posting on this blog. I will leave the blog up for all the fun gifs, and I may even be back to peruse on occasion. You know I will miss you all. Keep sing!ing, my friends -LimaBlaineFan

Gay Panic Attacks of Wing it Like Witches, Ranked
Now let me start by saying, all five of these gay panic attacks are primo, CHOICE gay panic attacks. Any one of which would have watered my crops for a season. But some gay panic attacks are more equal than others, so letâs start at the lowest-ranked one:
Number 5: Amity is interrupted from her âI Shot A Kidâ-style heroic angst over having played sportsball too hard by realizing she was like, nose-to-nose with Luz, and thus, TOO CLOSE AFDSDAFDSF.
This is a fine and lovely gay panic attack, as I said before, love it. Itâs not only adorable but it also does this fun thing where it jerks Amity out of Amityâs Dark Past Mode directly into Gay Disaster Mode, and I love that. It is only down here because of what is to come, because the competition for Best Gay Panic Attack in this episode is FIERCE.
Number 4: âIâve been talking for too longâ In this one, Amity just straight gay-up has a direct and obvious inability to talk to Luz, because she is head-over-heels in love with Luz, and talks herself in big, obvious circles avoiding this.
This is made even sweeter by Luzâ utter and total obliviousness here. Itâs just a delight watching Luz have ZERO AWARENESS of Amityâs gigantic gay panic attack. Delightful. But now weâre getting into the real heavy hitters.
Number 3: Cute Uniforms??? SWEATING?!?! The mere thought of playing a contact sport with Luz causes Amityâs entire mind to dribble out her ears.
Breathtaking. Marvelous. A delight to watch. Amityâs strangled âI GOTTA GOâ as she flees is beautiful. Itâs also got this cherry on top: Luz announcing âWell, sheâs out.â She sure is, Luz. SHE SURE IS. This one was VERY narrowly edged out by:
Number 2: Ha ha ha, Whoâs Amity/Oh Wow Sports. Amity tries to laugh off what appears to be a whole-ass broken ankle to avoid the terrifying possibility that Luz might BRIDAL CARRY HER HOLY Fffffffffff-- [oh wow sports]
This and the one before are in serious competition with each other in my mind because they both do the same thing, and they both do it really well: juxtapose Luz being totally oblivious to how utterly Amity has fallen for her, with Amity, being utterly, agonizingly smitten. I ended up giving the number two slot to this one just based on how HARD Amity is trying to keep a lid on her Gay, and how Luz, in her eagerness to power through Amityâs apparent need to seem tough (NOT THE PROBLEM ACTUALLY), does exactly the one thing that Amity desperately wants, and is terribly afraid of. Amity legit would have fainted if Luz had like, I donno, kissed her cheek or something.
Number 1: âShe can be so STUPID, which I love, I MEAN HATEâ Amity rolls a 1 on her deception check when she tells the GM she doesnât want Gus and Willow to notice sheâs in love with Luz.
I didnât think this one would make it this far, but ultimately itâs A: just too adorable, and B: it is the most SEEN Amityâs panic gets. Willow watches her the entire time, with this âoh, you poor bastardâ look and itâs PRICELESS. Gus doesnât notice, but Willow. Willow is so obviously aware of Amityâs Gay Freakout Time. The other freakouts feel almost like they could be happening inside Amityâs head, like maybe this episode is shot from her point of view so weâre seeing what these moments felt like *to her* but this last one... WILLOW KNOWSssss.
And Luz sure doesnât lololololol

Mega Good Omens Fic Rec Post 1
OH BOY YâALL ITâS HERE
This is the first string of fics I would wholeheartedly recommend from my bookmarks (probably first of three, weâll see). There are 65 fics sorted into 9 categories: Jaunts Through History/Canon; South Downs; Post-Apocalypse; Bus Ride/Night Before/Heaven and Hell; AU/UA (UA is Universe Alternate, where everything is the same, just...a bit to the left. I feel like that term has more nuance, idk); Soft; Touch-Starved/Body Worship/Wings; Bonus; H/C /Whump/BAMF. These will be the same categories for every fic rec post in this vein. I try to include warnings for sex and gore, if applicable, but please check the tags of each fic before you read, just in case.
Mega GOmens Fic Rec Post MASTER
PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF I BROKE A LINK OR MISATTRIBUTED SOMETHING.
I donât read explicit works and Iâm not a big fan of Human!AUs so thereâs not any of those, but thereâs a bit of just about everything else. Please enjoy! Hope the ReadMore works, sorry for folks on mobile if it doesnât!
JAUNTS THROUGH HISTORY/CANON
1. Bright With His Splendour â Daegaer (T, specifically book-verse. This is an exquisite look at the developments in Crowley himself, especially as it relates to his war-related traumas in the War in Heaven and later WWI. The Arrangement is Aziraphaleâs idea here, which is awesome. Highly emotional and visceral.)
2. Whatever Road We Choose â @ri-writing (T, the one where Aziraphale gets jumped by some demons and Crowley nurses him back to health, and Aziraphale has to confront his worldview when he realizes Heaven never responded to his call for help. Quiet and powerful as Aziraphale starts to realize Crowley isnât everything he thought he was and maybe Heaven isnât, either.)
3. Linked â @chekhov (T, the one where Crowley shows up in Bukhara and Aziraphale has to pretend to capture him so his angel intern doesnât destroy Crowley entirely. Has a lot of fun moments and emotional growth in play. And yearning. Lots and lots of yearning.)
4. The Demon Favourite â @kanna-ophelia (T, the one where Crowley is posing as a nobleman and manages to build himself a little ramshackle family, and Aziraphale takes care of them when Crowley gets himself discorporated. Extremely tender, lots of Crowley cooing over babies.)
5. Akashic Records â @penig (Generally G, one T, the series where Crowley is head-over-heels from the start and broadcasts it loudly, and Aziraphale is in Panic Protective Mode. The series is gorgeous and vibrant, the characterizations are so spot-on and yet fresh, the dialogue is perfect, the character growth is delicious. I canât gush enough about this one.)
6. But The Old Love Was Not So â BuggreAlleThis (G, the one written in the style of Le Morte dâArthur about Aziraphaleâs final few days in the court of King Arthur. Hilarious with the promise of emotional pain to come in the second half.)
7. flightless bird (dumb, wild, and free) â JennaCupcakes (@veganthranduil) (T, the one where Crowley and Aziraphale make out for half of history while Aziraphale has an ongoing existential crisis about being a broken angel. Poignant, sensual, culminates in a deliciously fraught confrontation where Aziraphale has to finally sort himself out and Crowley says some hard but true things. I once spent three hours trying to find this fic again without remembering the title so now itâs kinda ingrained.)
8. Nanny Knows Best â @patricianandclerk (M, rest of series is T, the one where Crowley endures some truly horrible experiences while serving as Warlockâs nanny. Adorable relationship between Warlock and Crowley, and itâs only getting better. The dynamic with Aziraphale is nuanced and beautiful. Rating for sexual harassment and groping, and itâs a bit of a difficult read at times during those moments, so be careful.)
9. The Holy Essence of Experience â Dragonsquill (T, the one where Aziraphale and Crowley have loved each other almost since the beginning, but have been very careful to not put a name to it. The yearning is real and so gorgeous. The scene just before they come up with their plan to avert Armageddon haunts me.)
10. The Arrangement â @writeonclara (T, the one where Aziraphale and Crowley try to get a handle on this sex thing. Non-explicit, hilarious, and unique! I can only assume the rating will probably be going up, which makes me sad because itâs hard to find nonexplicit fics that still deal with what sex brings to a relationship, but whatâs written for now is well worth it.)
11. And After â @randomacts13 (T, the series where Crowley and Aziraphale work through their self-worth and have lots of flashbacks. The first one involves Crowley taking care of a seed that keeps dying and leaving another seed behind, which is not at all feeding into his self-hatred; the second has Crowley and Warlock gluing coins to the sidewalk; the third is about Aziraphale on a one-way flight to Complete Mental Breakdown if he doesnât get some help for his anxiety and repressed emotions soon.)
12. The road to rapture has a lot of pit stops â emmagrant01 (E but only for the sixth chapter, the one where Aziraphale and Crowley have shared five kisses throughout history and one where they meant it. People like me who donât like explicit material can skip Chapter 6 (or just read until they smooch) and go straight to the epilogue. The rest of it is amazing; every kiss is believable in context and has such good lead-up. Very romantic, very good.)
13. Round and Round the Garden â SanSanFanFan (G, the one where Brother Francis and Nanny Ashtoreth get up to some hanky-panky beneath a willow tree while Warlock sleeps in his pram. Just sweet and silly fluff.)
14. Flecks of Light and Dark â volunteerfd (T, the one where Aziraphale learns to deal with his emotions. Has a really beautiful recurring thing of Crowley and Aziraphale making up stories of who theyâd be if they were human, and Aziraphale doing his best to do good and help even when Heaven ties his hands.)
15. Before the Water Rises â VitreousHumor (T, the one where Crowley and Aziraphale become friends while helping a village make rafts to escape the Flood. Has a lot of really cute moments and some pretty exquisite romantic tension.)
16. Beneath the Stars â @brooklynbabybucky (G, the one where Crowley asks Aziraphale to cut his hair. Just has some really lovely imagery and a sweet bonding moment.)
17. lit in the darkness â @toedenandbackagain (M, the one where Crowley and Aziraphale share a bed sometimes throughout history. Warnings for some sexual content in chapters 7 and 14, but each chapter has its own warnings in the description. Presents some beautiful bonding moments and the absolute finest pining known to man.)
 SOUTH DOWNS
18. The Playâs the Thing â volunteerfd (G, the one where Aziraphale is cast in the local production of Hamlet and Crowley is trying his best to be supportive of his truly awful actor husband. Hilarious and light and absolutely a classic.)
19. Parsley, Thyme, Sage, Daffodils â @mostweakhamlets (NR, the one where Aziraphale has a cooking YouTube channel and Crowley is camera-shy. Tackles PTSD in a really thoughtful way and is Peak Soft Cottage Husbands aesthetic, it really packs in the most warm fuzzies in a small package.)
20. to carthage then i came â @lvslie (T, the one where Crowley and Aziraphale move to the South Downs and learn to work through their issues around being together and being their own people after cutting ties with Heaven and Hell. Poetic, poignant, the last chapter is a thing of absolute beauty. Very heavily symbolic, that one.)
21. A Better Place for Us to Be â @befuddledmackem (T, the one where Crowley and Aziraphale tour a particular cottage. Deeply emotional, the Absolute Best Real Estate Pr0n if you also secretly watch HGTV and weep, has completely ruined any future house-buying opportunity I might have because nothing will be this sweet and perfect.)
22. Something We Were Withholding Made Us Weak â trieduntrue (M, the one where Crowley and Aziraphale move to the South Downs and very carefully orbit into something more like a relationship. Exquisite tension, beautifully-done pining and slow-burn, really fun bits of world building. M is for a sex scene at the very end but itâs easy to skip over, itâs small.)
23. reasons wretched and divine â @stammiviktor (T, the one where Crowley storms out after a fight and finds himself in an actual conversation with God. Highly emotional and a great look into Crowleyâs head, both in how he feels about God and how he feels about Aziraphale.)
24. The Sprawl of Life â @dietraumerei (T and G, the series where Crowley and Aziraphale settle into village life quite well. Has sex-positive asexual characters, which is fun (brief note about that: itâs not explicit, but the places it happens, there is clear leadup and it can get a bit intense, so take care of yourselves). Has touches of angst that balance beautifully with the fluff, lots of BAMF Aziraphale for the soul.)
25. Seashells and Fingerpainting â Vagabond (@waffleironbiddingwar) (T, and I recommend this one specifically from the series, can be read independently: the one where Gabriel is sent to the South Downs for a time out. This is quite possibly the best Gabriel character study I have ever seen; itâs tender and heartbreaking and somehow you find yourself rooting for Gabriel to figure out why heâs being punished despite yourself. All the warm fuzzies. All of them. Read the whole series, itâs great!)
 POST-APOCALYPSE
26. Laugh When It Sinks In â @tenoko1 (G, the one where Crowley helps Aziraphale build a home in the bookshop flat. Another one that feeds right into my interior decorating itch. So sweet and uplifting, will absolutely make you feel proud of Aziraphale.)
27. Chosen and Unchosen â Bookwormgal (T, the one where the kids have to go save Aziraphale and Crowley from Heaven and Hell. Has some EXCELLENT Warlock characterization and some really good tension between him and Adam, and the angst is properly upsetting. A right good adventure romp thatâs really starting to ramp up.)
28. Resonance â Macx (T, the one where Crowley and Aziraphale become something Else. Good world building, beautiful romance, and Gabriel getting told off. Love how Crowley and Aziraphale growing into their new roles is handled, and how Adam unexpectedly ties in at the end.)
29. Falling Heavenward â @kanna-ophelia (T, the one where Crowley unexpectedly has to win his angel back because of a really twisty deal with Heaven. This one is a pretty wild ride, but I would say the centerpiece is Fallen Gabriel, who becomes Asmodeus. It becomes a battle for Aziraphaleâs heart, though Asmodeus isnât in it for the feels so much as the revenge, obviously. Really interesting premise and something to read if rooting for Crowley is a way you like to spend your time.)
30. A Leisurely Stroll Down â Saturniidae (@Saturniiddae) (M, the one where Crowley and Aziraphale have to fight for their relationship. Has some sexual content that isnât explicit, and gore that really sort of is. I have thrown things and cried a little at this one, but that was the price for reading while it was still updating. Absolutely gorgeous in every way. Also has God speaking through a household object and itâs hilarious.)
31. From Godâs Perspective â Unfortunately (T, the one where God comes down personally to interfere in Her childrenâs business. The absolute best portrayal of God in any fic ever, really humanizes her in the best ways. I love how she interacts with her angel and demon children. Itâs almost more of a character study of God than anything. And yes, the Sound of Music is sung.)
 BUS RIDE/NIGHT BEFORE/HEAVEN AND HELL
32. Worth Knowing â summersage (T, the one where Aziraphale and Crowley discuss the Fall and manage Miltonian angel sex despite it. Has a take on how the Fall works that I was thinking about but couldnât find words for until this fic, and itâs absolutely fantastic. The Miltonian angel sex is esoteric and weird and not at all erotic, but it is beautiful. The mortifying ordeal of being KNOWN indeed.)
33. Legendary Lovers; Your Hand in Mine â @tenoko1 (G, the one where Crowley and Aziraphale regroup in a hotel instead of his flat and have a bit of a knock-down-drag-out. Crowley is angry and scared and so in love he canât stand it, and Aziraphale is practically going at light speed in confronting and knocking down his own barriers, and itâs highly emotionally charged and wonderful.)
 AU/UA
34. Love of My Life â @ellewrites4 (T, the one where Crowley and Aziraphale get together very early and make it work all throughout history. Gorgeous romance, and the fallout from the Holy Water caper and the bandstand breakup are EXQUISITE. Peak emotional turmoil, sweet boundary negotiation, forgiveness and love and anxiety and fearâjust delicious.)
35. True Love and High Adventure â @grifalinas (T, the one thatâs a Princess Bride au. Absolutely on-point casting, wonderful writing style, the perfect escape fic for a little while. Incomplete but still worth the read.)
36. Inverse Omens â @amuseoffyre (T, the one where Aziraphale is a demon with a p0_rn shop and Crowley is an angel running a community center from a bombed-out church. Yâall recommended this to me on my demon!Aziraphale rating post, and itâs AMAZING. Perfect characterization and a wonderful retelling. Warning for Chapters 11 and 12, Aziraphaleâs Nanny Ashtoreth messes with the Dowling parents in far more direct ways and thereâs scenes of Mr. Dowling jerking it, so take care, friendos. Also Aziraphale makes the filthiest double entendres and itâs delightful. Also also Crowley needs all the hugs.)
37. A Blaze of Light â @wingedspirit (T, the one where Crowley is Raphael and he and Aziraphale make a Pact instead of an Arrangement. This one is a wild adventure, friends, and a riveting one. The Pact puts an interesting spin on their developing relationship, and by the time it gets to TV canon, itâs already off the rails in the best ways. Also Crowley has some pretty heavy depression that manifests in his former Archangel-level powers blowing up a bit, which is cool. Should be wrapping up soon and Iâm pumped for it!)
38. itâs high time that you love me, cause you do it so well â mygalfriday (T, the one where Crowley canât physically say the word âloveâ but can diddly dang well show it if he wants. Already super sweet but the confession scene at the end is just incredible.)
39. Hold the Line â sum_nemo (T, the one thatâs a Pacific Rim AU. I adore PacRim, you guys, and this one is just *chefâs kiss*. Puts Crowley as Raleigh (lost his twin sister copilot) and Aziraphale as Mako and includes a pretty painful shared past between them, which is already simmering and delicious. Canât wait to see where this one goes.)
40. The Truth Remains â @wanderingalicewrites (NR, the one where Crowley was Raphael, had a good relationship with his siblings, was in love with Aziraphale, and knew he was destined to Fall. Aziraphale is still in mourning for Raphael and Crowley is still working out the point of his existence, so thereâs some very good pining and existential dread up in the mix. A highly interesting take on the situation and very, very good at punching you in the feels with the flashbacks to Heaven and how different things are now, especially with the other Archangels. LOL it just updated while I was writing this and I am UNDONE, I am in PAIN, the bandstand scene always hurts but NOT LIKE THIS. ALSO MORE ARCHANGEL FEELS, HOW DID THIS HAPPEN)
41. Everything Dark and Unseen â @enjambament (M, the one thatâs a Psyche and Eros retelling. After the Fall but before Eden, Heaven and Hell need a truce, so they marry Crowley and Aziraphale to keep the peace in a symbolic sort of binding. A beautiful romance, an excellent action sequence, the cutest OC creatures, the best OC angels, and I wish there was a continuation of how canon progressed with this monumental change in their history bc I am THIRSTY for more. Rated M for a kinda-sorta sexy scene but thereâs not really Efforts soooâŚitâs more sensual than sexual? I guess? Either way, highly recommended.)
42. The Name of the Star is Wormwood â LusBeatha (T, the one where Crowley was Raphael and the Fruit of Knowledge of Good and Evil was a fly agaric mushroom. It is exactly as eccentric as it sounds, but presented in such a way that it actually makes sense. It jumps around in time, but the storyline taking place in the present is looking like Armageddon 2.0. Beautifully written, great take on canon.)
43. Sticks and Stones â @justkeeptrekkin (T, the one where Crowley takes on the guise of Casanova while trying to get over Aziraphale and Aziraphale shows up, whoops. GORGEOUS imagery, the most scrumptious pining, and if yâall appreciated the 2005 Pride and Prejudice dance scene, the one in here will about blow that one out of the water, if you can believe it. Knocked the breath right out of me.)
44. Yearning to Hold You Close â @guanin (T, the one where Aziraphale has a relationship with King Richard and asks Crowley to help save him, and there is a big sticky mess of feelings when they realize Richard and Crowley look almost exactly alike. In part inspired by David Tennant playing Richard II. A delicious, delicious emotional quandary where Crowley and Richard both wonder if Aziraphale only loves them because they look like each other, and Aziraphale doesnât know how to say what he feels. Very sweet, very emotionally fraught.)
 SOFT
45. Just This Once â @julia-writes-fanfic (T, the one where Crowley and Aziraphale kiss in the 90s and itâs amazing. The drunk 90s kiss is already good, but them revisiting it sober in 2010 makes both even better.)
46. A Sky Full of Stars â @kedreeva (G, the one where Aziraphale takes Crowley someplace where they can see the cosmos. The first GOmens fic I ever bookmarked, so I felt like including it, because itâs unbelievably sweet and has amazing visuals.)
47. The Serpent and the Seagull â @ineffably-good (G and T, the series where Aziraphale misses Crowley so he gets a little pet snake. Frederick the snake is among the best of the GOmens OCs, hilarious and foul-mouthed and once Crowley starts being able to understand him, it only gets better. Frederick likes helping his pets work their problems out so theyâll leave him alone to sleep. Itâs extremely cute.)
48. The Discerning Black Swan â @lwtis (T, the one where Crowley is definitely not projecting on a black swan desperately trying to court a white mute swan in St Jamesâ Park. I love how Crowley interfaces with his emotional problems through the swan, and the visual of the two swans is gorgeous.)
49. What A Demon Dreams â @whatawriterwields (G, the one where Crowley has some weird dreams, dude. I love the symbolism and the imagery in this one, itâs really vivid. Itâs hard to pull off a concept like this so I respect how the author is able to do it and make it work.)
 TOUCH STARVED/WINGS/BODY WORSHIP
50. Sunlight â crorvid (M, the one where Aziraphale is a touch-starved angel. Doesnât deserve the M rating, in my opinion, but Aziraphale does feel the touching during their makeouts very intensely and itâs incredibly satisfying.)
51. The Curious Attractiveness of Others â @giddygeek (T, the one where Crowley finally gets to groom Aziraphaleâs wings and Aziraphale gets to show Crowley how tender that can be. Another one with some great world building tucked into the corners, and emotionally satisfying grooming.)
52. Broken Wings â werebear (@werebeary) (T and M, the series where wing grooming is incredibly intimate and I got the vapors from the tenderness. Also the first time I saw anything about preen glands. The second one is rated M because the preening gets a bitâŚintense. Not sexual, exactly, but itâs close. Very passionate.)
53. Birthmark â Linebreaker (G, the one where Crowley has a scar on his lower back and a sad story to go with it. This one needs a bit of a harder rating, imo, and thereâs one line thatâs a bit Much, but otherwise itâs a sad and beautiful look at a potential reason why Crowley hates the fourteenth century so much. Lots of Crowley body worship packed into few words, very satisfying.)
54. They Are A Pale Picture of You â @ineffablefool (T, the one where they go for a walk during winter and things are just Soft. Ineffablefool has a wealth of body-positive asexual GOmens fics, but I think I like this one best, itâs sweet and adorable and some jerk who insults Aziraphaleâs weight rightly gets the worst day of his life. Also Crowley compares Aziraphale in his winter wear to a plump little bird and itâs cute imagery.)
 BONUS
55. Ineffable Bureaucracy Drabbles â Shift7 (T, the series of short fics where Gabriel and Beelzebub are kinda-sorta falling into friendship and being very judicious about it. Lots of paperwork, very orderly.)
56. Ineffable Bureaucracy â @eshnoazot (T and G, a series of longer fics where Gabriel and Beelzebub are navigating a careful arrangement of their own. Still lots of paperwork, of course, but thereâs also emotional friction and conflict resolution. Excellent characterizations. Wednesday night Thai and Friendship night is a+++++. Gabriel deffo called a board meeting to talk about his feelings.)
57. A Bentley Sang in Berkeley Square â CastielHamilton (G, the one where the Bentley is sentient and a good, good girl. She is doing her best and I love her. Basically the series from her point of view.)
58. Fairest and Fallen â VitreousHumor (T, the series where Beelzebub and Gabriel encounter each other a few times and Gabriel tries his best to remember their shared pre-Fall history. Poignant, sad, and beautiful.)
59. Observer Effect â SquarePudding (T, the series where the Grigori in charge of recording Aziraphaleâs Earthly movements starts to ship him and Crowley and records their romance. The Grigori, Rezathaniel, is a precious baby who needs to develop a better palate outside of âgreasy literal garbageâ and has 0 chill when it comes to their ship. Theyâre kind of like a celebrity blogger at this point but watching their character growth in the first story is very sweet.)
60. Soul of Vellum, Heart of Chrome â @29-pieces (G, the one where the Bentley and the Bookshop are sentient and very protective of their owners. This one is going to KILL ME with the plot I wasnât expectingâHeaven and Hell are hunting Aziraphale and Crowley down again, so the Bentley and the Bookshop do their best to help. Theyâre doing so good and Iâm so proud of them, itâs not their fault things went a bit south. Precious beans. Good, good things.)
61. Real Fire and Brimstone Stuff â @jessikast (G, the one where college-age Warlock helps accidentally summon his Nanny and a lot of things start to make sense. A very sweet story about Warlock getting closure and getting back in touch with Crowley and Aziraphale through the weirdest means possible.)
 H/C /WHUMP/BAMF
62. Broken Hallelujah â @atlantis-is-burning (T, the one where Hastur comes to kill Aziraphale and Crowley and itâs ugly, folks. It is kinda gory and it is injury-ridden and painful, very touch-and-go for a bit. It ends well, though, and Hastur gets his, which is the Best. Tore me up one side and down the other in all the best ways.)
63. Fall Here â @marbledwings (T, the one where Aziraphale and Crowley are easing into a relationship in fits and starts, and then Crowley gets snatched. This one was AGONIZING to wait for it to update, so be glad itâs complete, because it gets pretty dark for a while. Be warned of torture, though itâs mostly implied and itâs the aftermath thatâs dealt with most. It absolutely sticks the landing at the end, and has a great characterization of Michael.)
64. how deep the sand â Handful_of_Silence (G, the series where Aziraphale is trapped in a glass bubble in a wizardâs basement for fifty years and the ensuing aftermath. Feels mostly book-verse, but there are some cues from the show. Intense and realistic and emotional and heavy, drags you through the darkness and you appreciate the light all the more for it. A beautiful story.)
65. you taught me how to love, (itâs me who taught you how to stop) â @clankclunk (G, or the one where Aziraphale comes to find out that you canât just rush into a relationship after six thousand years of repression. This one is absolutely murdering me. The angst is real. The hurt is real. Iâm hoping the fluff and comfort promised in the tags is coming soon because WOW. Has a fantastically haunting view of what happens to angels, who are highly emotive beings, when they fall into depression. And Crowleyâs adverse reactions to praise and love are so realistic and painful. Ouch.)
