currently trying to mentally work out the logistics of if this backfires and they do tour while i'm at home me leaving my family to fly to [redacted american city] to where my friend lives to crash at their place for a few days despite the fact that their girlfriend is also a phannie and i know nothing about her so it would be the three of us as a trio which would be. something.
#astra.txt#i have been to my friends home city exactly once but it's not overly complicated or pricy to get to from where i'm at#and i can technically get my mom on board with it so long as its not like insane. And they can probably make it work#this is mostly just a am i going to interrupt a date night sort of situation#which i get but like. let me be the anthony to this dynamic ok#But again if they tour while im at college ill reschedule everything and go literally not even a question

WIBTA for asking out my manager?
Hi there. Trust me this is a WIBTA and not just dating advice.
So I (35F) am basically working at my dream workplace. I cant say what exactly, because I know people follow this account there, but suffice to say its in a desirable industry with a lot of passionate folks, and while its a big (~150 people) place, there's an atmosphere of kindness and joy I've never seen anywhere else. I know a lot of you probably hate me for this, but I am truly aware how rare a workplace this is, and I am grateful. I dont take it for granted. Sometimes the work itself truly sucks, and the pay is outright atrocious, but when your coworkers have your back, it makes all the difference. They accept me even tho I'm trans, and when I've been sick or injured they make sure I'm taken care of. I feel like they are a family of sorts, and I've been working there for over a year now.
Anyways, this wonderful place is held up by a lot of wonderful people, but one in particular is my manager (30F). When I first got hired, I noticed she was cute, but more importantly she was welcoming and accepting. I set aside those feelings, of course, because its a workplace, but they havent gone away.
But lately, this all started to change. We now spend a lot of talking! We have lots of common interests, and there have been nights when both of us will stay for HOURS while the other works, just to chat about whatever! We even text a bit, even about not-work things. Sharing fandom stuff, whatever. The more and more we talked, the more I fell for her. I could hear her go on for days, even if its something I dont care about. Hell, she could read the dictionary and I'd be sitting there grinning because I get to hear her talk. I've got it bad! And then, a few weeks ago, she even brings up how she's given up on dating...but before I could ask more or say anything really, a coworker interrupted and the moment passed.
And here I am, weeks later, smitten like crazy. And I'd say "oh she obviously likes me, she sticks around for you, shares stuff with you" but she's like this with everyone. She's a bit airheaded honestly about it, I mostly find it endearing, but she could absolutely just be doing it because she talks like that to everyone. She's bisexual, and very pro-trans, so I dont think that would be an issue in any way.
But here's where the WIBTA part comes: I have told a couple other coworkers, and they brought up not only that its a dangerous move to date a manager, but also that it could hurt the workplace itself. I mean, this is a place where so many people get to have a joyful opportunity at life, and as I've said this is tremendously rare...what if I take up too much of this manager's time, and she cant be there for other workers? What if this manager gets fired for dating an underling, and gets replaced by someone awful? There's a whole lot of what-if's floating through my mind.
And then I start thinking, if I ask her out, wouldnt that be putting her in an awkward position? I mean if she doesnt like me, and has to turn me down, she still has to work with me, and I her. I can compartmentalize that, but...she might have more trouble. Is it selfish of me to even try, when I could just let well enough be? And on top of that, what did she mean by "giving up on dating"? It didnt sound like she was aromantic, just that she decided it wont happen, but maybe its just going to be a problem if I ask her out. It feels like the stakes of even asking her out are so high. So I keep chatting with her in hopes that I'll catch a lead, but...idk.
Anyways, I am primarily concerned with if it would be a dick move to anyone in my workplace, especially her, but genuinely I am just lost here. I've never dated anyone at a workplace, but like. The dating apps suck, and I dont think I've ever felt this way about anyone before. I've even thought about quitting or finding another workplace to make it an easier decision, but I feel like thats even worse; like it would put pressure on her to date me because I quit for her or something. So how about it? Should I keep my mouth shut, or is love truly worth all risks?
What are these acronyms?

With Both Hands - Steddie - PG
for @steddie-week Day 1
Prompt: Mystery / secret relationship / One Night Alone by Vixen
rated pg | 838 wds | tags: kissing, fluff, everybody lives, post vecna
Eddie is having trouble figuring out how he got here and believing it's real.
(Also on AO3)( My Other fic on Tumblr)
With Both Hands: A Complete and Utter Mystery
How Eddie had ended up here was a mystery to him. He could make no sense of the timeline in his head and yet the reality was right in front of him.
âYou want to kiss me?â he asked, which was all kinds of pathetic, but he couldnât help it.
Steve nodded, with a nervous little smile.
âIf youâre into that,â was the uncertain response.
The little laugh that burst out of him then was completely out of his control. He just couldnât believe it. His heart felt like it might burst, and the joy had to come out somewhere. Unfortunately, Steve took it the wrong way, the hopeful expression falling off his face and hurt filling his beautiful gold and brown eyes.
That just would not do.
Before Steve could turn away, Eddie brought up his hands to either side of Steveâs face and held him firm.
âInto that? Into that, Stevie, Sweetheart,â he said, doing his very best to make sense. âI am so into that I can feel my heartbeat in my teeth, but youâre gonna have to give me just a moment, because Iâm having real trouble believing that all my dreams are coming true.â
He watched understanding dawn on Steveâs face, a smile, a full one this time, breaking across Steveâs expression like the sun coming up over the horizon. It was so bright it was blinding.
âTake all the time you need,â he said, so sincere Eddie wanted to pull him in and never let go.
âOh my god, oh my god, oh my god,â Eddie whispered, mostly to himself, because his brain had always been a really weird place and it might have been even weirder since his brush with death, âSteve Harrington wants to kiss me.â
âHe does,â Steve said, âand then heâd really like to take you on a date and have you as his boyfriend for as long as youâll have him.â
Something inside of Eddie kind of exploded.
âPutting aside the fact youâre talking about yourself in the third person, Sweetheartâ he replied, âyes, yes, and yes.â
Leaning forward he captured Steveâs lips with his own. It was amazing, it was wonderful, and then Steve pulled him in and deepened the kiss and Eddie found out where Steve got his reputation from. For a while Eddie forgot what thinking was as he revelled in the full Harrington experience, well at least level one.
When they finally came up for air, his brain was being even more uncooperative than usual.
âHoly crap,â he muttered, because it was about as eloquent as he could manage right about then.
âYeah,â Steve replied, pupils just as blown as Eddie was sure his were.
âWe should do that again,â Eddie decided.
âWe should..,â Steve agreed, but was interrupted by a loud screech.
They both glanced towards the back yard from where they were hidden by the pool shed.
âBut one of the buttheads is bound to come looking for us very soon,â Steve said with a sigh of disappointment.
There was currently a party going on in and around Steveâs fancy swimming pool, a celebration of everyone being alive and well and Vecna being very dead. It had taken them until the beginning of June to end the bastard and quite a lot of that time was gone from Eddieâs memory. The Party had found him amongst the debris of the Upside Down, just like theyâd found Chrissy and Fred and Patrick and everyone who had died by Vecnaâs hand since the beginning of spring break, even Jason âIâm fit for the looney bin nowâ Carver.
The going theory was something about temporal mechanics and Vecnaâs machinations and all sorts of things Eddie did not understand. Dustin had tried to explain it to him, but it would not stick. The kid was currently threatening to write it into a campaign to get it into Eddieâs uncooperative brain. Frankly he didnât care, and he cared even less now he had so much more to think about.
He was alive, he had graduated because Higgins had wanted to include all those mysteriously back from the dead (the cover story was incredible) and the bastard couldnât leave out Eddie without lots of questions, and now he had Steve âThe Hairâ Harrington for a boyfriend. It was definitely a mystery, one so deep he wasnât sure he would ever solve it, but he didnât care. Sometimes dreams did come true, and he was grabbing this one with both hands.
âWe should get back and revisit this when the hellions are gone,â Eddie agreed with Steveâs assessment.
âWe should,â Steve said, but didnât move.
They looked at each other for a while longer.
âYou do know you are clinging to my butt with your hands, right?â Steve asked eventually, a small smirk playing at his lips.
So, possibly Eddie was taking the grabbing with both hands somewhat more literally that usually expected after his limbs had migrated downwards while they were kissing. Sue him, he had goals.

Never Say Never - Suguru Geto x Reader
Chapter Three: Study
Chapter Summary: Suguru and reader go to the café to study for finals, and we get a bit of Geto's POV in this chapter! Smut coming soon hehe
ao3
"Sugu, you want to study with me tonight? Our favorite café?" I looked at Suguru across the hallway. Finals are coming up and you're nowhere near ready.
"You don't have a date tonight?" His eyes never left his phone screen.
"A date with my textbooks." I roll my eyes. "It's a yes or no question."
"I have nothing better to do." Suguru slid his phone in his pocket, turning his back to me.
Since Gojo's birthday, Suguru has been quieter than usual. He's retreated to his room, which is arguably his safe haven, and is doing God knows what.
Debatably, I miss my best friend. I've been spending some of my time with Toji, getting to know him and avoiding the two of us in bed together. I'm not the type to sleep with just anyone, I need mental, emotional, and physical connection.
I slip on my favorite oversized sweater with jeans and combat boots. I find my tote bag and put it over my shoulder, waiting for Suguru at his door.
He opened his bedroom door and look startled when I was waiting for him.
"Sugu, stop being weird." I cross my arms over my chest. "I've barely seen you. We've barely seen you."
"I'm fine." His backpack hit his back before he brushed past me. I felt his arm touch my skin, leaving goosebumps.
The café is pretty quiet, just the way Suguru and I like it. He orders my coffee for me and brings it to our table. I pull out my laptop and open up my assignments, sighing at the screen.
Suguru sat in front of me, bringing his laptop out of his backpack. I glanced at him before he could notice, observing his chocolate eyes.
Why am I staring at Suguru?
His face looks like he was crafted by Greek Gods, so much work must've went into creating him.
I've always found Suguru handsome. I would never admit it out loud, but it's true. He's tall, has the most beautiful long black hair, and his face is one that I could stare at forever.
He could sense me staring at him and my heart almost stops.
"Do you like what you see?" Suguru smiles for the first time in forever. His long black hair cascades past his shoulders with a little bun holding some pieces. His front pieces frame his face, moving with his words.
I blush, going back to my typing. I've never seen Suguru like this. I've never looked at him in a way that made my core pulse with need.
When he looks down at his laptop screen, I look at Suguru again. He's wearing a black t-shirt that barely covers his biceps. My eyes follow the veins on his arms to his large hands, his fingers typing quickly.
I wish those fingers were in me.
Am I just horny because Toji and I haven't slept together yet?
A message pops up on my screen, interrupting my thoughts.
Sugu: Stop eye-fucking me before I take you in the bathroom right now.
I freeze, trying my best not to let Suguru know that he's not only right, but I wish I could jump his bones right this very second.
Me: Over my dead body.
Sugu: That can be arranged.
I can't help but feel some sort of attraction to Suguru at this moment. Maybe I've always felt this way and didn't do anything about it, but I'm not gonna be the one to admit my feelings first. They might be fleeting feelings anyways.
Geto
God, is she gorgeous.
I've had a crush on her since we were in high school, but being best friends kind of ruins any idea of a relationship. Losing her would be like losing half of me, which at the time I didn't think was a good gamble.
But when I saw her with Toji, a man who looks like he has a roster of women at his beck and call, those feelings resurfaced and I felt them in my mouth.
To be fair, I've brought plenty of women home. Mostly one night stands, and I know she heard me with them. I never thought about her feelings towards that because my romantic feelings were idle. I assumed she was fucking men outside of the house, so my worries subsided.
Now is different. Now, I want to kiss her every time I see her.
Now I want to feel myself inside of her.
Now I want to build something with her.
It might be too late, but oh well.
She took a sip of her coffee, leaving foam on her lips. "You have something right here," I took my finger and wiped it off her lips, then sucking on my own finger. "Cinnamon."
My dick was already hard thinking about what her pussy tastes like and eating her till she's screaming.
"Suguru." She sat up, fixing her hair. "What are you doing?"
"Helping my friend not look stupid." I smirked, going back to my typing.
She sighed, going back to her studying. Her tan skin glowed against the light in the café, and her hair framed her face beautifully as it made its way down past her chest. I watched her chest move up and down as she breathed, slowly and relaxed. I could watch her all day.
The bell to the café rang, signaling someone walking in.
Of fucking course.
You
"Hello gorgeous." Toji sliced your thoughts, pulling a chair up to your table. "I was on my way to my friends house when I thought I'd stop by for a coffee."
"Hi, Toji." I smiled as he kissed me on the cheek. Suguru's face was like stone. "This is Suguru Geto, my best friend and roommate."
"Nice to meet you. Toji Fushiguro." Toji reached his hand out, half smiling.
Suguru didn't say a word, but took his hand roughly, shaking it.
I watched the two as they interacted without saying anything verbal to each other.
An unspoken argument.
"Want me to stop by tonight?" Toji finally spoke, turning to me. "I've missed you."
"I've missed you too. Not tonight, I'm not feeling my best." I waved my hand. "I'll text you." I reassured him with a smile.
"Okay, I gotta get going. Have a good day beautiful, and it was nice meeting you Suguru."
Suguru nodded, still not speaking.
Toji got his coffee and left after what seemed like ages.
I kicked Suguru's leg under the table, receiving a glare in return. "What the hell was that?"
"Did you want me to hug him?"
"No, I wanted you to at least be nice."
"Why?"
"I'm nice to all the women you bring home." I cross my arms over my chest. "I even pretend I can't hear you fucking their brains out."
"Touché." Suguru nods. He leans forward at the table, insinuating I should do the same. "That should be you." He whispers.
Chills are sent down my spine as he says that, my arousal dampening my panties.
This man is teasing me and having fun with it.
"I'd rather fuck a man with a dick bigger than 4 inches." I whisper.
"Oh baby, add about 5 inches to that." He winked, and I think my pussy heard that before me, because I was soaking.
What the hell am I supposed to do now?

Better Or Worse {Chapter One}
Nessian. Angst. Modern AU.
@snelbz x @theladyofdeath collab
Better or Worse Masterlist
A/N: We are so excited to share this one with you guys! As you know, angst is sort of our specialty and while this one will be pretty heavy, weâve tried to sprinkle a good amount of fluff as well. We hope you love it and always, please let us what you think!
Chapter Warning: Language.
Nesta -
âI'm going to bed.â
My fingers come to a pause on my keyboard. I glance up and find Cassian leaning against the door frame of my office.
The clock in the corner of the computer screen tells me itâs 10:46. I know heâs not telling me to try and entice me to join him. No, heâd given up on that weeks ago.
My fingers go back to flying over the plastic keys, clicking as I try to pick back up the stream of consciousness I was working on when Cassian interrupted. âI want to get this draft finalized tonight. I only have a few chapters left. The publishing company will have my ass if it isnât submitted before tomorrow afternoon.â
Excuse.
Thatâs all Iâm full of anymore. Excuses.
Excuses as to why Iâm always at my office downtown late or donât ever want to go to dinner. Why Iâm distant or never try to touch him.
âCan you at least try to make it home by six tomorrow night? Please?â
My gaze leaves the screen and lands on him again. âIâll try. You know Iâve got deadlines I have to hit.â
Heâs as handsome as always, even more so with the shadow of stubble across his jaw. He must not have shaved this morning, if the dusting of hair was any indicator. That wasnât like him. Shaving was a part of his daily routine, quickly followed by his morning shower. My husband may be brash and blunt, but heâs a man who has and loves his routines.
Routines that often feel like they are smothering me, stifling any spark of spontaneity in my soul.
His arms are crossed over his muscular chest, his tattoos just barely peeking out over the neckline of his t-shirt. I know those tattoos intimately, can trace them with my eyes closed.
Itâs been far too long since Iâve done that.
His voice pulls me from my thoughts of the ink adorning his skin. âIâll cook. Get a bottle of your favorite wine. We donât have to go anywhere.â
He sounds like heâs negotiating a hostage situation, not asking me to dinner. I hate it.
I stop typing, trying my best not to show my annoyance. âI donât know. Iâll have to see.â
Cassian's reaction does not reflect any sort of satisfaction. âCome on, Nesta. We havenât had a date night in months. I will literally bring date night to youââ
âI said Iâll have to see.â The moment the words come out of my mouth, I feel guilty. My tone is embarrassing, but I canât control it, the snap.Â
Cassian's mouth shuts and his jaw locks. âFine.â
âGood.â
âGood.â
A beat passes between us before I start typing again. I can feel Cassianâs eyes blazing into the back of my head for a minute, then heâs turning around. âNight.â
âGoodnight,â I say, trying to sound as genuine as possible, but mostly I just sound stressed.
Which I am.
So damn stressed.Â
I hear him walk down the hall and close our bedroom door. I stop typing yet again, my eyes shutting as I rub my temples.Â
At least Iâm honest. I could tell Cassian that Iâd be home by dinner tomorrow, but then I would be late and he would just be disappointed and get pissed. Itâs better to let him down up front rather than too late.
Being a best selling author isnât all I was expecting it to be. Sure, seeing my book on shelves next to some of my all time favorites is awesome, but itâs daunting. My first book was self published, coming to life out of my own blood, sweat, and tears. So once it took off and I started working with a publishing company, I thought Iâd made it. Things were going to get easier. All I had to do was get my words down onto paper and theyâd do the rest.
Wrong.
Someone is always demanding something. Whether thatâs a finalized draft, an update on an outline, or approval for cover artwork, I never have a moment to breathe.
As if the universe is laughing at me, a new text chimes on my phone, lying face down on my desk. I recognize the sound, immediately knowing itâs my agent, Eris.
I sigh, telling myself to ignore the notification. Iâm already editing hours after I should be, but my eyes keep bouncing up to my phone. After reading the same sentence four times, not comprehending a single word, I snatch my phone up.
Got a phone call from the Velaris Times. They have an opening for an interview tomorrow afternoon.
An opportunity I canât pass up.
Sounds like a plan. My office or theirs?
If I thought I would be able to focus back on my edits, I was wrong. Eris is typing back as soon as my text is received.
Over dinner, actually. Viviane Whittaker will meet you at Ritaâs at 5:30.
My thumbs hover over the screen.
Can you at least try to make it home by six tomorrow night? Please?
Swallowing, I type out my reply.
Iâll be there fifteen minutes early.
I should go tell Cassian that there will be no date night tomorrow, but I think better of it. Iâm already so tired and that is not a fight that I want to start so late at night. Iâll just text him about tomorrow.
I look back up at my screen and try to reset my mind, call back my concentration. Just as I begin reading, a jingling bell comes closer and a ball of fluff settles on my feet.
I look down at the chubby black cat and reach down to scratch him between the ears. âHi, Greg.â
Greg shoots me a look full of judgment.Â
âDonât try to guilt me,â I say, straightening back up in my chair. âI already feel guilty enough.â
With a huff, Greg lays his head against the carpet and closes his eyes. Iâm officially the only one in the house not fast asleep.
Cassian -
I havenât gotten mind-numbingly drunk since college, but all I want to do once I get out of work is drink to forget. Iâve never been good at handling my anger, and I was already on edge, so when Nesta texted me saying that she had dinner plans and would be home late, I was automatically seeing red.
I just want one night with my wife but I should have known that was too much to ask for. It usually is.Â
Already finding Rhysâ number in my phone, I hop in my truck and start the engine as he answers.
âWeâre going out tonight. Drinks are on me,â I say, before he can even say hello.Â
âItâs a Thursday,â he replies with a laugh, but I know heâd be there regardless. Out of all of us, Rhys was the one who had ended up with a real âbig boyâ job. Heâs one of the most respected lawyers in Velaris, and having his own practice, he basically gets to make his own hours if he isnât in court.
âGlad you can read a calendar.â I sound like a dick but I canât bring myself to care. âIâll be at Windhaven in fifteen.â
âShould I call Az or is he already on the way?â
âI texted him first. Didnât want him to leave work and have to turn around.â
Azriel works in a tattoo parlor two blocks down from our favorite spot, but lives outside of town. With Elain being pregnant, thereâs only so much time we get with our brother.
I look over at the empty spot in the garage next to mine and sigh.
A hole in my chest that has been progressively growing larger aches. Iâve always been proud of Nesta. Sheâs always wanted to be an author since the day I met her, and sheâs living her dream. And sheâs really damn good at it. She has a way with words that I could never understand, that I couldnât even come close to matching. She was meant to be a writer.
But ever since sheâs found success, Iâve come in second.
Itâs not that I always have to be her first priority. I want her to live for more than me, but it would be nice to be a priority sometimes. It would be nice for her to put our marriage first, to make time for me, for us. I barely even see her, and when I do, her eyes are glued to her laptop screen. She didnât come to bed until four, then was up again at seven, barely uttering a word to me before she left for her office.Â
âCass?â
I havenât even realized that Rhys has been talking to me. âSorry.â
âIâll be there in half an hour,â he says, and his tone has softened, fully aware of where my mind has gone. âGet a booth.âÂ
âAlright.â I hang up, reading Azrielâs text on my screen once I pull the phone away from my ear.
Perfect. Had to tattoo a flower on an 80 year old womanâs ass today. I need a drink.Â
Despite my current mood, I chuckle and pull out of the driveway. Keeping the radio off, I drive, wondering if I should send Nesta a good luck text. In all reality, she probably wonât reply, so I toss my phone in the passenger seat and let it be.Â
If Nesta wants to talk to me, wants to spend time with me, she would be home for dinner for once. I know Iâm being petty, but after a while, being neglected by the woman you married becomes exhausting.Â
And Iâm so damn tired. I need booze and bad food and my brothers. Iâm man enough to admit when I need to get something off my chest, but not enough to do it sober.
Rhysâs instructions to get a booth were unnecessary. Azriel unsurprisingly beat me here and is sitting in our normal booth, the one with a direct line of sight to the bartender. A pitcher of beer sits in the middle of the table as well as three glasses. I appreciate my brotherâs propensity to think ahead, but I need something harder than beer tonight.
Nodding to Az, I make a beeline to the bar. Breathing a sigh of relief, I see Ace is the one behind the bar tonight, not Devlon. The old man owns the bar and has never been a fan of me, Rhys or Az.
âYou look like you need a free drink,â Ace says, as I make it to the bar and lean against the cool wooden top.Â
âI always need a free drink.â The words sound pitiful coming out of my mouth. Ace just winks and pours me a glass of whiskey without even having to ask me what I want. âThanks.â
âAlways,â she says, patting my hand before I turn to walk to the booth. Iâll see her again shortly. I donât expect the glass of whiskey to last too long before I need another.Â
Azriel watches me approach, his glass already halfway gone. I nod to it as I sit across from him. âHas the image of elderly ass been erased from your mind yet?â
âNo,â Azriel says, taking another drink. âBut the memory looks better and better with every drink.â
I huff a laugh as I sip from my glass of whiskey, enjoying the burn as it slides down my throat and I pour a glass from the pitcher in the middle of the table.Â
Rhysand appears beside me and slides onto the bench. I hadnât even realized that heâd walked in, but in my defense, Iâm hardly present.Â
After pleasant hellos and Rhysand pouring his own glass, he asks, âSo, is this when you tell us the reason you want to get plastered on a Thursday?âÂ
Swirling my glass, I watch as the whiskey moves through the ice cubes, the color diluting as they melt slowly. Bringing my drink to my lips, I drink deeply and set the glass down, staring at the table top.
âMy marriage is falling apart.â
Neither of them speak.
Neither of them do anything.
I wasnât expecting them to fall over themselves to comfort me, but I was at least expecting a back pat or an Iâm sorry, man. Glancing up from the table, they both just stare at me.
The look in their eyes tells me they knew. Everyone knows. We havenât been ourselves in months. I canât think of the last time we were both at a family dinner.
âI donât know what to do,â I go on, when neither of them say a word. âIâve been tryingâŠbut every time I try, no matter what I try, I feel like Iâm pushing her further away.â I take a drink. âIâm exhausted.â
I down whatâs in my glass and motion for Ace to make me another.Â
âI tried to give her a date night tonight,â I go on, working on my beer thatâs quickly disappearing. My brothers simply watch me as I babble. âWe havenât had a date night in months. She never seems interested, so I stopped asking. Last night, I asked, for the first time in a long damn time.â I gesture around the table. âAs you can see, Iâm not with my wife.âÂ
âWhere is she?â Azriel asks, when itâs clear Iâd paused my rambling, at last.Â
Another glass of whiskey is set in front of me. I give Ace a grateful look before shrugging. âWith some reporter. Not sure where. Theyâre out to dinner and will probably be there until some ridiculous hour.âÂ
Azriel looks away from me, his eyes locking with Rhys and then I feel both of their gazes on me. I turn to Rhys, who is usually the one who takes the lead in awkward situations. Tonight is apparently no different.
âShe wonât have dinner with you, but sheâll meet some skeezy reporter for dinner?â He asks, an eyebrow raised.
Shrugging my shoulders, I start on my second drink. âSo it seems.â
He folds his arms atop the table and leans towards me. âAnd you didnât ask where they were going? Or when she would be home?â
âI stopped asking what time sheâd be home months ago.â My voice sounds hollow, empty. I wonder how long itâs sounded like that. âAnd begging for answers seemed pathetic.â
They make eye contact again and Azriel clears his throat. âYou donâtâŠthink sheâs having an affair, do you?â
âAbsolutely not.â
He sighs. âCassââ
âShe isnât sleeping with anyone else.â
âCass,â Rhys begins, his tone as placating as possible, slipping into the voice of the man who can convince anyone of anything. Itâs what makes him such a good defense lawyer. It makes me want to break something. Makes me feel weak. âWe know you love Nesta and that she loves you.â
âShe wouldnât cheat on me,â I snap, and I mean it. We might not be on great terms right now, but Nesta is loyal to those she loves.
And despite the distance between us, I have to believe she still loves me.
âSorry,â I say, trying to calm myself down once the silence between us stretches on for too long. The air is thick. They know they had struck a chord and are surely deciding if they want to keep the conversation going. âI justâŠdonât think thatâs the case.â
âIf sheâs not cheating, then whatâs the issue?â Azriel asks, tentatively. âHer work?â
âYeah, sheâs busy,â I say, staring at my empty glass. âButâŠI donât know. Honestly, I have no fucking clue how we got here. We barely talk. Most nights, she doesnât even come to bed. I canât even tell you the last time we had sex.â That was a lie. I remember it, and it was way too long ago for me to admit. âEvery time we do talk, it ends in a fight. Iâm justâŠat the end of my rope. I donât know what to do.â
The table is quiet for another minute before Rhys asks, âAre you saying that you want to leave her?â
Itâs not that the thought has never crossed my mind. Lately, I think about it often, filing for divorce, giving up, but hearing the words out loud make me feel sick to my stomach.
I donât answer.
I wave to Ace for another whiskey.
The table is silent until she brings the drink and returns to the bar.
âI donât see what other options I have.â My words are whispered, as if I canât hear them, they aren't coming out. My words are starting to slur a bit, a good sign I should probably slow down.
I ignore that sign and take a drink.
âYou two fought like cats and dogs when you first met,â Rhys reminds me, as if I could somehow forget. âWhatâs different now?â
âThose werenât fights, that was sexual tension,â I admit, shaking my head. âGotta have sex for there to be sexual tension.â
Azriel refills his beer. âShe hasnât said anything to Elain, as far as I know.â
âOr Feyre,â Rhys adds.
âYou both know Nesta,â I start, looking between the two of them. âShe doesnât talk about her feelings with anyone, much less me or her sisters.â
They both frown, watching me with concern, seemingly at a loss for words.Â
âDo you still love her?â Azriel asks.
âOf course I do,â I say, my anger fading as the alcohol calms me, consumes me. âBut just because I love her doesnât mean that itâs working anymore.â
âDonât make any rash decisions,â Rhys says, calmly, refilling my beer for me before motioning to Ace for another pitcher. Seems Iâm done with whiskey for the night. âI know you, donât act out of anger. You have to tell Nesta how frustrated you are. You have to communicate.â
I know heâs right, know that communication has become a weakness in our marriage. I donât want to communicate, I donât want to work for it, I just want my marriage to right itself, to return to the way it used to be.
And I want to fucking drink.
So thatâs what I do, alongside my brothers, until Iâm not thinking about my crumbling marriage at all.

something it occurred to me to wonder recently and thought if anyone would know, it would be you ;p
when Eva began back in 1995, how much was it anticipated? both narrowly in otaku circles, and more widely among 'people who watch TV in Japan'? as far as i understand the history, Gainax was pretty niche back then and mostly known for dating sim games, but the visual style of Eva is so immediately striking...
like, I know nobody quite realised just how huge it would become, but was there some sort of excitement for a new robot anime from the people who made Wings of Honneamise, Gunbuster and Nadia? or was it a complete surprise?
Hm, good question! I am not super confident in my answer, so my bet is "highly anticipated but not crazily so". Gainax was known but niche, having 'Otaku' success with as you mention Wings and Gunbuster...until Nadia: Secret of Blue Water came out in 1990. This would not have put Gainax per se on the map, as Toho and Group Tac were branded as the primary producers, Gainax as secondary, but it definitely put Hideaki Anno on the map as director. The show was wildly successful, aired in prime-time slots - which, fun fact, meant that its first season airing was interrupted due to breaking news about the onset of the First Gulf War - and Nadia herself became Best Girl in most of the Newtype/Animage style polls of the time until being dethroned by Sailor Mercury in 1992. Nadia was definitely still 'an anime', and it was a kids show in too many ways to be a real breakout. But it was the top of anime of its time, no debate.
Its success is what gave Anno the ability to finance Evangelion, and it meant he was also able to pull a lot of 'big talent' for branding purposes - which ofc was intentional, Anno is no fool. Hiring Usagi from Sailor Moon's voice actress Kotono Mitsuishi to be Misato for example, when Sailor Moon was the #1 anime of 1994, is certainly because of her talent but also because of her buzz, and he has a bunch of hires along those lines to make Eva the "oh man the best of the best are all here" kind of show.
(Again fun fact time - you prob know this one - he also tried to bring Kunihiko Ikuhara, Sailor Moon director, onto the animation staff, and as part of his tactics to woo him named Rei Ayanami after Sailor Mars, Ikuhara's favourite SM character that he famously cosplayed. Ikuhara was alas too busy with wrapping up his time on Sailor Moon and forming Be-papas to make Utena to spare the time)
All this meant that by the time Evangelion was getting ready for its Fall 1995 debut, the cover of the April 1995 issue of Newtype looked like this:
And hey, if you want some evidence of the buildup discussed, the first page of the cover feature starts off in 1990, with a discussion of the impact of Nadia:
Even here, once it transitions to discussing Evangelion, Anno is promising "something anime fans have never seen before". It was a common refrain in all the marketing material throughout 1995, that this show was going to be special. The manga adaption actually began print in February of 1995, as a hype builder. The Evangelion team was putting it all on the line.
Also I love that early concept art - the more gundam-esque pilot suits over the plugsuits would have absolutely been my jam, alas.
(This marketing material is more evidence against the mythical "mid-production pivot" theory that fans in the past surmised about Eva's intended story, but a topic for another time)
Still, this is just marketing - who wouldn't say your show will Change Everything, that is your job as a business! For all the inner-otaku hype and rep, Evangelion was definitely targeted at those otaku, and it wasn't marketed to an all-ages demo with wider appeal like Sailor Moon. Anno even remarks in the interview above it would be more of a 'cult hit' compared to Nadia. It had a Wednesday airing slot (at 18:30, not actually super late - another myth, it just had late night re-runs after its evening air slot), not a great time and definitely not a Saturday evening slot like Sailor Moon.
It was a show that instead grew over its airing and broke out of its slot and genre - its finale got audience ratings almost twice that of its premiere (though these numbers are hard to aggregate over different stations). Its about midway through its run that you start getting those "phenomenon of Evangelion" style articles, and when the ending hits the culture critics start jumping in as well and it becomes a true cultural event, and discussion of the show in mainstream magazines starts happening. That wasn't happening in 1995.
I wish I could say it all culminates with End of Evangelion being released and being the #1 film of the year and all that - but while it did well it got its clock absolutely cleaned by Princess Mononoke, which came out the same week. An honourable defeat at least!
Hopefully this is a good answer! Definitely more to be said on the topic, man this would be a great deep dive project...
#evangelion#anime history#also you had a great reply to my miyazaki walk cycle post and i never got to reply I am sorry -_-

I am sending someone a furby! It is nice to move one of them to a new home. And it was a nice way to end a day that was pretty though on me.
I really struggled. I had a horrible time falling asleep last night. I had to wake James up I was so upset and feeling so bad. And they were difficult to wake up which upset me more. I was going through it for sure.
I slept an extra 10 minutes. Which didn't actually make me feel much better. I just did not want to leave. I wasn't even feeling particularly bad, but I was afraid of feeling worse. And it was so wildly humid outside. I was shocked when I went outside. James would give me a peanut butter and jelly sandwich to take on the drive. And then I was off. I waved to my husband as they biked away. And I headed to work.
And it was a mostly find day. The kids were great. They liked the project a lot more and that made me feel a lot better about it after being sort of upset about it all evening.
I was very unhappy inside though. While the nausea wasn't terrible, my brain just felt low. Exhausted. I need a break. Camp is almost over. But I am already thinking about the fall.
I would go down to the office to chat with Heather about it. She would give me the dates we have for feild tiros and rentals so I would know when I talked to Jesse about the September schedule. Elizabeth would get confused later when I was like. Oh I have the feild trips written down and she's like what feildtrips?? But I call all the rentals no matter what they are field trips. Just like I call all the musuem events weddings. Should I stop that? Probably but it's not the most important thing to me right now.
I had my two morning groups and they were good. They made interesting pieces. I decided to order everyone both cup molds and plastic bags molds. And that little bit of choice seemed to make people a lot more interested and experimental. Which was fun to see.
I was a little frustrated with some kids who kept interrupting me but we would get through it and things would be good.
I was very tired though. So at lunch I would lay in my hammock and fall asleep for a half hour. I was just a bit dizzy and I wanted to sleep more but I had to be up for my groups.
Tuesday is my longest day. With 2 groups in the morning and 4 in the afternoon. And it is very tough!! But since I will have my doctor's appointment next Tuesday I won't have to have this very long day again this year.
My afternoon groups did a good job. Sweet kids. I was frustrated by some councilors just straight up not doing their jobs but the ones who were doing their jobs made me feel very appreciative. The good ones make my life so much easier.
Bontkirchen just wanted to make bracelets. A few of them did clay. I would knit quietly and enjoy the conversations. Learning about what they want to be when they grow up. Daisy gave me a cookie. We got to learn about Harris picking the Minnesota governor as her VP. And he seems like a good man. I think it's a solid pick. We try to not talk politics at puhtok but it was literally just announced while we were sitting there so it felt like they deserved to know.
My last group of the day was horse camp. And I had checked with Chloe twice to make sure they were coming. And she said yes. But then it was 345 and they weren't there??
I was sitting there waiting when PJ came to visit! It was so nice to see him. I was sad when he wasn't able to work at camp this year. He's a real adult now. He would hang out with me for a bit but soon he was off to say hello to some other people.
And horse camp still wasn't there.
I would go down to the office to use the bathroom. I was annoyed that I could have been home but I wasn't I was waiting for them!! But as I was leaving the office I saw Alicia and she is the horse camp councilor so I followed them and would have horse camp for 20 minutes.
So they just cut string for bracelets and got started on things. They had a few kids who were apparently really really struggling and that's why they were so late. But I was just glad they came in the end.
But soon it was swim time and they were off. And I would head home.
Thankfully the drive was not terrible. There was a bit of traffic but I would be home by 515. I got a good parking space and was just really happy to be home.
James was warming up my leftover pizza. And while they did that I went and took a shower. The plaster makes me so dry. And while my nausea isn't so bad, it is still there. And it was nice to just sit in the cool water.
I had my two pieces of pizza. And James baked bread. And we have been chilling on the couch. They are playing a little guitar now and it's just really nice being together.
We will probably watch a show. And maybe have a milkshake. And just try and have a nice night.
Hopefully tomorrow I feel more normal. It's been a hard couple weeks physically. It would be nice to not be so aware of my body all of the time.
I hope you all sleep easy tonight. I love you all. Good night

I got a whole 4 hours of sleep today and have to pull a 12 hour shift. So I apologize if it doesnât make sense, I am new to the Bucky fandom!
I like the idea of his grumpy, refusing to let anyone in, be slowly ground down by reader, but teeters back and forth until reader is in some sort of trouble. Then the flood gates of vulnerability open because he was worried about them. I mean he hasnât been with anyone since the 40s right? Would he still know how to navigate caring about someone in that way? I donât know. It was something that has been buzzing around in my head for a week.
Pairing: Bucky x Fem!Reader
Word Count: 1.9k
Warnings: langauge, vague description of sex (minors dni!)
BUCKY MASTERLIST
MAIN MASTERLIST
»»ââââ-ăâĄăââââ-««
Youâd started out as neighbors - nothing more and nothing less.Â
Neighbors turned into causal acquaintances, fueled by your constant baking and copious amounts of goodies. Casual acquaintances turned into friends that would spend an occasional evening watching television together. Friends quickly turned into best friends that became utterly inseparable....with the occasional hook-up. You were hesitant to call it friends with benefits because that just sounded so crass. It was more like best friends with the occasional stress relief.
Stress relief. Sure that worked.
None that you wouldnât have minded more of course. But you werenât about to make a move on James Buchanan Barnes and ask him out on a date. No, you knew your place and his. He was physically akin to a god, mixed in with a bit of fuck boy, and yet...you loved him. Youâd fallen hard and fast for the man that had gone from a mere stranger to a welcome and comfortable part of your life. But youâd never tell him that.Â
No, nope, hell no. Bucky surely didnât reciprocate your feelings and youâd never been the type to make a move first.Â
Besides that...Bucky didnât exactly strike you as a relationship type of guy. Youâd seen him here and there with a girl or two, but it wasnât anything serious. And since the two of you had started hooking up, youâd never noticed anyone else. And you hadnât been with anyone else either. It was akin to a non-exclusive exclusive not-really-a-relationship relationship. Neither of you pushed it any further - you both accepted dates here and there but they never amounted to anything. Wonder why?
Unbeknownst to you, it wasnât that Bucky didnât want a relationship - he did. He did very much with you. But he just...there was something about being a one hundred and six year-old man that just left him confused and worried. He hadnât exactly had the opportunity to date much and now that he had the time it reminded him of just how different things were. Dating was this weird confused jumble, but you were a clear and obvious bright spot. He had his doubts that youâd ever want anything more from him. He knew what he was - a mostly stable old man with a body that people seemed to enjoy. He made the most of that - it didnât seem like people were interested in getting to know him much these days.Â
But you did - you always did. And, gods, heâd fallen hard for you - the kind of love that makes your stomach churn and heart feel like bursting and steals your breath away no matter how long itâs been. But what the fuck would you want with him? Heâs a fossil with a boatload of mental trauma and even more sass and attitude.
You deserved the world and he only had himself to give. Of course, he was enough - way more than enough - but he didn't believe that.Â
There had been numerous occasions when you'd tried to be honest, to confess your true feelings, but you'd always managed to fall short. Every time you got close, something came up. And after the last girl you'd seen him with, you vowed to take your secret to the grave.Â
You had come close though - so close - especially the last time you'd hooked up.
»»ââââ-ăâĄăââââ-««
You were under Bucky, both of you naked and panting as you quickly approached your highs. He was buried deep inside you, head dropped to the juncture of your neck and shoulder, nipping and biting at the delicate skin.Â
Your legs were wrapped around his waist in order to hold him close. One of your hands was laced together with his while the other was wrapped around his neck. There was something so perfectly harmonious about how you always were together.Â
His name fell from your lips like a prayer, James, James, James as he kept going. It was the only time you called him anything but Bucky. As your vision had grown hazy and you felt that familiar warm start to blood your veins, youâd let your true feelings slip. It was so easy, so effortless and in the moment it just...happened.
I love you.Â
The declaration hung in the air as you felt your walls clamp around him and he reached his own eyes. Thatâs when youâd realized what youâd done. This time it was an entirely different sensation radiating throughout your bones - terror. Utter terror.
But if Bucky had heard your three little words he made no mention of them. Relief washed over you as you came to the conclusion that he was just as wrapped up in his own blissful haze that he simply hadnât heard you. You were safe this time - but youâd have to be extra cautious from here on out.
Oh, but Bucky had heard you. Loudly and clearly. He chose to ignore your words because he was positive that he hadnât heard you incorrectly. Surely you hadnât meant to say that - and more importantly, it was a mistake. As much as he loved hearing those words from your pretty lips, he knew it was either an accident or a figment of his imagination.Â
You both pretended that nothing had happened.Â
»»ââââ-ăâĄăââââ-««
Bucky rolled his eyes lightly as he watched his phone light up with a call from Sam. He was half tempted to ignore it but decided to answer anyway; he was bored and the call might lead to something to do. Youâd normally be hanging out with him on a Friday night, but his calls and texts had gone unanswered.
âHey man,â Bucky picked up the call and walked into the kitchen to grab a beer, âwhatâs up?â
âYou need to get to the hospital,â Sam was speaking so quickly that it all came out in a single slew of words as Buckyâs brows knitted together.
âI know I donât have a lot going on this Friday night, but I think Iâm okay,â he snorted as he opened the bottle and took a swig.
âNo, no, no,â Sam interrupted by almost whispering your name, âthereâs been an accident. She was hurt and taken to the ER. I was on the phone with her when it happened - just come. Now.â
Bucky didnât even wait for Sam to finish before he dropped the beer and ran out the door. His whole body felt like it was growing numb and the only thing on his mind was you. You couldn't be hurt...you just couldnât. Bucky couldnât imagine any sort of reality in which you werenât there.Â
»»ââââ-ăâĄăââââ-««
As soon as he ran into the hospital, seeking out the emergency room, he was asking about you. He looked probably just as crazy as he felt as he was nervously directed to your room. He almost jogged down the hall and into your small space. Sam stood at the end of your bed, looking down at you with a concerned expression.
âWhat the hell happened?â Bucky could barely bring himself to look at you as you laid on the small bed, looking so helpless and fragile. You were sleeping, sedated from lots of heavy drugs, but hooked up to several beeping machines. Your arm was in a cast already, bruises and contusions and cuts littered every bit of your skin that he could see. His heart plummeted into his stomach.Â
âShe was crossing the street and got hit by a car that didnât slow down enough in time,â Samâs heavy was heavy as he rubbed at his tired, âI heard it all happen, Buck. It was terrible - but sheâs strong. Sheâs going to be okay. No internal damage, luckily, but sheâs going to be in a lot of pain for a while. The armâs broken.â
âJesus,â Bucky sighed as Sam nodded.
âI called her parents and theyâll be here soon. Sheâs just sleeping but hopefully will wake up soon.â
âOkay,â Bucky took a hesitant step closer.
âShe asked for you,â Sam hadnât been sure if he should have confessed that little part or not, âwhen they were bringing her in. Kept repeating your name. You should just tell her, you know. Sheâs obvious she feels the same. Donât be idiots.â
âThanks,â Bucky rolled his eyes dramatically as the two men shared a quick laugh before Sam hugged him, âIâll stay here if you want to go. Youâve done a lot already. Thank you for calling me.â
âI got you man,â Sam gave him a half smile, âcall me if you need anything at all...or if anything happens.â
âGoodbye.â
As soon as his friend left, Bucky came over to you, his fingers grazing the side of the small, horrid looking bed. He was going to help you however you needed it for however long it would take till you were better and out of pain. If he had the choice, he wouldnât ever leave your side again.
This whole time heâd been so dumb, so silly. He should have just told you how he left - a long time ago and gotten over himself. A heavy sigh escaped him as you pulled up the uncomfortable plastic chair and took a seat next to you.
He gently, ever so delicately reached for the hand that was in the cast and held it in his. It almost made him laugh with how much smaller your hand was than his. They fit perfectly together.
He watched the steady rise and fall of your chest as you slept, wondering when youâd wake up. He hoped soon - so he could finally tell you all of those unspoken words.Â
»»ââââ-ăâĄăââââ-««
âJames?â a croaky, dry voice met his ears as his tired eyes snapped open. He blinked a few times to adjust his vision before focusing on you. You were looking back at him with a tired, sleepy little smile on your features. You looked beautiful, so damn beautiful, despite the blues and purples painting your skin, âwhat are you doing here?â
He must have fallen asleep at some point during the night. He was still holding your hand. He beamed back at you, âhi pretty girl. Sam called me and told me what happened. I came right over.â
âIâm anything but pretty right now,â you laughed lightly but quickly grimaced at the pain, âhow long have you been here?â
âSince yesterday evening,â he confessed quickly, âI didnât want to leave - wanted to make sure you were okay.â
âOh Bucky,â there was that saccharine little smile on your face. The same one he loved so much, âyou didnât have to. I...I really fucked up movie night, huh?â
âIâm in love with you.â
He finally got those damn words out before he could change his mind or think too much about it. Your face immediately lit up with a grin as you searched his cerulean eyes.Â
âDo you mean it?â you asked softly as he nodded, feeling a blush creep into his cheeks.
âOf course.â
âI love you too, Bucky,â you replied, giving his hand a tight squeeze, âIâm in love with you.â
âYeah?â
âYeah.â
âGood,â he whispered as he leaned closer to you, âbecause Iâm not going anywhere, pretty girl. Not now, not ever.â
âI donât want you to, Bucky,â you promised, âI want you with me always.â
âThat sounds perfect to me.â

patience is a virtue
summary: college!au. all aged up. eren and reader continue with their sexual escapades. find part one here! warnings: 18+ minors dni. dirty text messages, dirty talk. dom!eren and bratty reader (i suppose?). throat fucking and semi-public sex. (no p in v tho) word count: around 3.5k A/N: i have a love/hate relationship with this eren ahaha, he's been ruling my brainrot ever since the last part so i hope you enjoy! there will be a part three eventually, so be on the lookout for that! enjoy your read and feedback is greatly appreciated! xx
you awake to your phone vibrating somewhere next to you. the hope of it only being a one-time occurrence quickly proven to be false as it just wouldn't stop. brr-brr. a second of silence. brr-brr. pause. brr-brr.
taking a mental note to never go to sleep again without turning off your phone, you roll over to your other side and try to ignore it. you could simply answer the texts, but that meant you'd have to open your eyes. and that whoever was texting you would win this weird battle you've just come up with in your head.
"if you don't pick up your goddamn phone, i'll smack you over the head with it," sasha groans from the other side of your shared dorm, words coming slurry with her tiredness.
brr-brr.
"i could also stick it up your ass, your decision," a pillow comes flying to your head, serving as enough of a warning for you to sit up in your bed, rubbing the sleep from your eyes.
"quit moaning, i'll turn it off now," you yawn, feeling around your bed for your phone, "you never hear me complaining about the shit you do in the middle of the night."
"that's because my shit is funny and not fucking annoying," she scoffs, followed by a muted thump as she is sinking back down into her pillows. sasha's way of ending the conversation.
you find your phone half-tucked underneath your pillow, the display already lighting up again. someone is desperate for attention, you think to yourself and unlock your phone with an annoyed sigh. the messages were coming from an unknown number.
thinking about your wet pussy. this is eren, btw. historia gave me your number. i told her you wouldn't mind you don't mind, do you?
in a matter of seconds, your heart is beating in your throat once more, just like this afternoon in that godforsaken computer lab. ears growing hot at his words, you could almost imagine the sound of him laughing at you again. with trembling fingers, you scroll down further.
anyway, let's do it again sometime i told you. i'll never let you forget about how you moaned my name i'm also not forgetting about how badly i want to fuck that pretty mouth of yours, so it's a win-win see ya, then
staring down at your phone, you don't know if you should answer him. and even if you would answer his texts, what the hell should you say? "fucking bastard," the words escaping your mouth before even realizing that you'd better keep quiet. the only thing that could make this situation any worse was if sasha were to wake up again.
scratch that, you think as you see eren's new messages.
how badly do you want to suck my cock? you looked really hot today, covered in my cum what, you're shy again?
there are two ways this could go: either you stand up, put on some clothes, and then go to eren's dorm to let hell rain upon him - or simply mute your phone and ignore him. deciding to go with the latter, you lie back down and save his number as "fuckhead", a small grin forming on your face. if he wants to be childish, then you can be, too.
the display still lighting up at a steady pace, you have to fight the urge to open his other messages. to physically prevent yourself from grabbing your phone again, you put your hands between your thighs and sigh. what the hell have i gotten myself into?
"so, who am i gonna have to teach some manners today?", sasha asks in the morning, "because there are only two valid reasons for sending that many texts in the middle of the night," she sits up in her bed and bends over to reach for her phone, "either someone's dead or there's a food sale."
cringing at the thought of having to read the countless other messages eren has sent throughout the night, you try to laugh at her comment, "of course, when there's food involved, you're all for it."
"girl's gotta eat," she claims, thankfully being too distracted by something on her phone to notice your strange behavior, "i'm gonna be back later than usual today, connie wants me to be his wingman again."
starting to go off on a tangent about how connie should just get a dating app already, sasha's words become more of background noise to you. you want to know what he wrote. what he has in store for you. at the same time, you curse yourself out. you're turning into a headless chicken and all of it because of eren fucking yeager?
you nod here and there, offering her a "yes" at what you believe to be fitting moments, desperately hoping she doesn't catch up on your restlessness. all the while the two of you are getting ready for the day. this goes on for a few more minutes and you have no clue what she's talking about now, so you decide to grab your phone and stand up.
"i'm gonna go for a run around campus, you want coffee?" you blurt out, interrupting her monologue. the device in your hand feels as if it's burning through your skin. slipping into your trainers, you're already halfway out the room, her perplexed "uh- yes, please," being muffled by the door closing behind you.
it's still warm outside - not as hot as yesterday, but warm enough for you to be glad to have forgotten your cardigan earlier. you let out a deep breath, trying to clear your mind. even though you told sasha you'd be out for a run, you walk at a slow pace.
some people are already wandering around campus, most of them on their way to a lecture. at this time in the morning, everyone has their heads full with their own worries so no one notices you slowly making your way off-campus.
arriving at a little park surrounded by trees, you sit down on the bench farest off. you notice your heart fluttering like the wings of a hummingbird when pulling the phone out of your back pocket. fuck him, you think once again while typing in your code. fuck him for making me feel this way.
12 unread messages.
didn't seem all too shy when i had my hand wrapped around your throat no need to play hard to get when i already had you if that makes sense? haven't fucked you yet doesn't mean i won't get to fuck you
all you want is to feel appalled by these messages. to screenshot them and send them to the dean. maybe even to his mother. sickened with yourself though, you already feel the familiar warmth creeping up your body, curling up in your abdomen.
i know you want it, too how fucking needy you were for me getting yourself off in public to the thought of me maybe you can tell me what exactly you were thinking of? gonna make sure to let your dreams come true, princess
pet names? you clench your fist at the thought of eren leaning over you, breathing the word princess into your ear. you have an inkling that he'd say it mockingly; spitting it out whilst gathering your hair in a ponytail, arching your back forcefully, and slamming his length into you without mercy.
no. you hate pet names. at least, you've always hated them.
i'm gonna find out if you're ignoring me right now remember, you're not the best actress. fucking suck at it, actually wouldn't want to be punished now, would we?
his last message echoed in your head. still coming to terms with the fact of what happened yesterday, now you have to deal with a whole new revelation: eren yeager being a cocky motherfucker pushing all the right buttons for you. even though you want to blast his ass for this, the mere thought of him being near you again is too sweet of an imagination.
you want to play this game, too. for whatever reason keep on riding this high, and you just know that no one could do it quite as well as eren can. somehow you can only imagine taking him on this ride with you, no one else.
so, in that manner you decide to ignore his messages. if he's desperate enough to keep on sending them in the middle of the night, you're sure it won't be long until he sends another text. and it would give him enough reason to try and punish you, whatever that might entail â you're excited to find out. fucking nervous, too. but then again, who wouldn't be?
you stand up and put your phone in your back pocket, a sense of excitement surrounding your steps as you turn left to make your way to the nearest coffee shop.
"something tells me you're ignoring me," of course, the moment eren's voice comes up behind you, you fucking flinch like a little bird that's been scared away, "mostly because i've seen you reading the messages, but what do i know?"
you turn to see him clutching his heart dramatically, "don't play with my feelings like this," he swoons, bringing one hand to his forehead. he's laughing again, all white teeth and bright smiles â you realize this is the kind of eren you rarely get to see. not the cocky bastard he normally portrays; right now, he seems to be a happy-go-lucky kind of guy, just enjoying himself. still, you want to show him that you can play just as well as he can.
crossing your arms in front of your chest, you slightly raise a brow, trying your hardest to not look as nervous as you feel. it's a lost cause though because you can already feel the tips of your ears glowing with heat again. can't things go my way for once? just once? you think and chew the inside of your cheek. you felt so sure of yourself just moments ago. how the hell can he have this sort of effect on you?
suddenly, his whole demeanor changes. before, he seemed laid-back, entertained by the game he played with you. now he leans forward, hands in the pockets of his jacket and an almost cruel smile forming on his lips, "don't try to challenge me in this. you'll lose."
you know that you should feel frightened. terrified, even. he's looking like a lion preparing to jump the antelope, a sense of alarming calmness around him that's causing the small hairs on your neck to stand up. but alas, the way he's looking at you seems to have the same effect on you his scent has.
"i told you not to ignore me," eren says and takes a few steps closer to you, "yet here you are, doing it again." the chuckle leaving his lips a stark contrast to his stern gaze, still trained on you. somehow, you feel awfully small again - still not frightened, though. you stare right back at him, tilting your head slightly as if you wanted to say "so what?"
"are you seriously that desperate to be punished?"
better now than never, you think and once again place a courtly smile on your lips, "seems like it."
for a split second, you see eren's smug look turn into a genuine smile. realizing that you're up for his game, he lets out a smooth whistle, "you do surprise me."
"if you wouldn't always be so full of yourself, i'm sure you'd have recognized this sooner," you can feel the confidence growing in yourself again. clinging on to it, you take a step toward him, "i'm full of surprises."
"oh, yeah? i bet you are," from the corner of your eye, you can see him lifting his hand. before thinking twice about it, you bat it away, "i'm not one for public displays of affection."
oh, it is onâ eren's smirk turns into a full-fledged grin as he takes a grip of your wrist, "you sure about that?" lifting your hand to his face, for a short moment you think he's going to suck on your fingers again. but all he does is place a faint kiss on the back of your hand, "didn't seem like it yesterday."
"you weren't supposed to see."
"but i'm so glad i did," he leans forward, the two of you standing so close you can feel his breath on your face, "or else we wouldn't have this kind of fun right now."
still having a hold of your hand, he lifts his other to your jaw, gently tracing his thumb across your lower lip, "you looked so pretty in your skirt yesterday."
taking a leap of faith, you grab his hand, holding it in place and letting your tongue run across the tip of his thumb before biting down playfully. there's a hiss and then eren pulls away and grabs your arm, "come with me."
finally, you think and let him guide you to wherever he wants, let's have some fun, then.
on your way out of the park, you pass jean and marco. even though they stand to greet eren, he just raises his hand whilst not breaking his pace, "gotta go, have an assignment to work on."
"never seen you that determined, but go off," jean laughs.
before you know it, you're inside one of the countless maintenance sheds. pushing you against the wall, eren's movements seem to become more and more erratic by the second. pinning your arms over your head, he's looking down at you, breathing heavily. "you have no idea what you just got yourself into," licking his lips, he chuckles.
"oh, but i think i actually do," you smile innocently, fucking glad to have found your normal self again. admittedly, eren threw you off your game since yesterday â but it's just going to play into your hands now. he won't see it coming until it's hitting him straight in the face; that you're just as messed up as he seems to be.
"then prove it," he breathes against your ear, "tell me how badly you want it."
the stuffy air inside the dimly lit shed doesn't help with keeping eren's scent away from you. being so close to him, looking up into his shadowed face and right into his dilated eyes; you're like putty in his hands. you try to move forward, to touch him in some way because you just know that he'll feel so good under your skin.
"now now, princess," he moves even closer, wedging you between himself and the wall, "how about we learn some patience, first?"
you nod, but then grind up against his thigh, hissing through your teeth, "i worry i'll be a real handful." you know you could very well move your hands, too â eren seems to still be testing the waters as to how far he can go with you. but with him actually letting you grind on him; you decide to play into his hands.
your breaths grow quicker as you keep on, pace becoming erratic. all you want is to get rid of your track pants â come to think of it, what you actually want is eren under you whilst you continuously bounce on his cock. you want to hear him call you princess and immediately after call you his little whore because that's exactly what you are.
eren has a little smile on his lips and you know you should ask yourself why â because you're doing exactly what he has forbidden you to do â but you're too far gone. the heat growing, you feel your knees buckle but he's holding you up; one hand now resting on your waist for support. you're so close â
and then he pulls away from you, nearly causing you to topple over. chest heaving, you place your hands on your knees for balance, "what the fuck was â "
"patience is a virtue," interrupting you with a laugh, but his voice heavy with lust, "thought i might give you a lesson you're ought to remember."
you look up to see eren palming his erection through his pants, standing about an arm's length away from you, "but i have to admit, hearing you getting yourself off is fucking hot."
biting your teeth together, you straighten up and take a step toward him â only for him to click his tongue in disapproval, "you're gonna stay right there," tugging at his pants he raises his eyebrow, "i told you what i want, get on your knees for me."
"the fuck i will," you spit out and make a move again, grasping for his waistband. but eren is quick to take a hold of your hand and pushes you back to the wall, "come on, now, princess," he chuckles but his eyes are concentrated at you, "you want this, don't you?". he's asking for permission, the thought feeling very comforting to you. and also, very excited for what's about to come.
"of course, i do," you answer him earnestly, resting the back of your head against the wall, "or else i wouldn't be here."
"fantastic," he breathes, a little smile playing in the corners of his mouth, "then get down on your knees," placing his hands on your shoulders, weighing you down, "i won't ask again."
the change of tone in his voice has you nodding, slowly sinking onto your knees, you're bursting in anticipation. one hand finally pulling down his pants, he runs his other through your hair, then down your jaw until it comes to rest on your chin.
thumbing at your lower lip, he groans "do i have to be careful?"
you just shake your head no. then you break away from his gaze, fixing your eyes on the bobbing cock in front of you. it's tip leaking with precum already, you remember how badly you wanted to lick it away yesterday.
taking his cock at its base, you bend forward and slide your tongue around its head. the salty taste sending shudders down your spine, you make sure to lift your eyes again once you prepare to take it all down your throat. your other hand snakes up to his balls, slightly tugging them which earns you a moan from eren, and fuck, you're so wet at the sound alone, you let go of his cock and slide one hand down to your own center.
he gathers your hair in one hand, taking the base of his throbbing cock in the other, "bet this is what you thought of yesterday," he slowly but surely pulls your head in closer, "of how i fuck the words right out of you."
bucking your hips into your own hand, you can do nothing but whimper at his words. because yes, this is exactly what you imagined. he's only halfway in and you're already struggling to breathe, but not wanting him to stop you hold your breath and push down even further; trying desperately not to moan.
the tears in your eyes causing your vision to be blurry, you attempt to blink them away.
"shit â ", he's pumping into you now, rubbing the tears from your cheeks and then placing both his hands on your head, "you're doing so well â "
getting lost in his words, the fear of being caught is so far away; you finally moan around his cock. saliva soaking the hem of his shirt, you can't seem to take his whole length, no matter how hard you try. you're a fucking mess under him and the thought alone is nearly sending you over the edge.
he's trying to pull away now and you know he's close, so you snake your hand around his hip, hoping this is enough of a sign to him that if he dared to cum anywhere else than down your throat, you'd bite him.
"you really â " his voice is hoarse, "fuck â this is fucking perfect," he moans as he comes to the realization. leaning his arm against the wall behind you, he's fucking himself into your mouth, his panting and the sound of your choking filling the room.
you close your eyes to blink the tears away again, but eren pulls on your hair, "no â look at me."
with this the knot in your belly explodes, leaving you holding on to eren's hip as you ride the waves of electricity that are running through your body like lava.
"such a good little whore â " he's gone as well, holding your head in place as he's pumping his load down your throat, leaving you no other option than to swallow â which you eagerly do. you feel his legs shaking under your hands.
once again, eren hands you his shirt to clean your face. this time, you take it with a smile, noting that, "i still have your other one."
"don't worry, i'll come get it sometime when sasha's away," the two of you know exactly what this means â neither of you are planning on this to be over anytime soon.
"i'll let you know, then," you nod and stand up, hoping you don't look as well-fucked as you feel, and make your way to the door, "she's gone most of the time."

Hi val! Got a request, it's okay if you don't wanna write it, but can you write about peter telling the reader he's going on a huge mission and he's excited about it but the reader is so worried they end up arguing? But when peter gets back from mission all bruised, the reader is still upset but dresses his wound anyway and it ends up with fluff??
abort mission
w/c: 2.4k
warnings: mentions of blood, swearing, and angst
a/n: woah woah woah i ended up writing way more than i expected but i loved this request so much :,) i hope you do too
-
âweâre staying in this, like, super fancy castle while weâre there. itâs gonna be awesome,â peter rambles to you. he takes all the clean shirts in his drawer and throws them into a suitcase.
heâs packing for a mission in europe with the avengers, and youâre here to say goodbye. youâve been pretty quiet while peter gives you as many details as heâs allowed to. itâs always an honor when the team invites him on. he gets so stoked about it. youâre happy heâs happy and gets to pursue his passion, but youâve noticed a pattern.
every time peter leaves the country with earthâs mightiest heroes, he comes back in worse condition than the last. it seems like they protect everyone except peter. heâs oblivious to the fact that the end result is always his suffering. heâs just glad to be there. really, he gets nothing in return except scars that never heal, not even a permanent spot on the team. ïżŒ
so, youâre not thrilled he agreed to go.
âplus, i get to miss two weeks of school.â peter beams, getting onto his knees to zip the suitcase. âfeels like a vacation almost.â âyou like school, though,â you remind him. youâre sat at the edge of his bed while you watch, rather than help. he hops up again with a shrug. âi like vacations more.â âitâs not a vacation,â you mutter to yourself, then speak up.
âhow are you gonna catch up? thatâs a lot of missing assignments.â with that same innocent smile, peter walks over to you. he grabs both your hands and laces your fingers together. âiâm a fast learner. besides, ned said heâd help me.â you sigh, looking down at the floor so you donât have to look at peter. âor, you could. make it into a little study date when i get back,â he suggests while playing with your fingers.
âi donât even want you to go,â you finally admit and meet his sparkling eyes. nothing could ever dull them. âwhy not? youâre gonna miss me?â peter teases, pressing a couple of kisses to your palm. âyou donât have to. iâm pretty sure france has wifi.â he wiggles his eyebrows. âoui oui, mademoiselle, eh?â despite yourself, you giggle at his french accent and tug on his hands. he sits down next to you with a chuckle.
ânat has been giving me lessons,â peter explains, you quirking an eyebrow. âshe speaks french?â âshe speaks a lot of languages, actually. sheâs so cool.â peter scoots closer to you and sets his hands on your waist, his voice dropping. âyouâd love her.â your face twists up in confusion at the idea.
you donât have anything against the avengers, obviously. theyâre good people. youâre just not the biggest fan of them at the moment, considering the circumstances theyâve put peter under.
âpeter, i donât want you to go,â you repeat more seriously than before. your teeth sink into your lower lip. âand, itâs not because iâll miss you.â ânone taken,â peter jokes, implying there shouldâve been a no offense. he then realizes how distressed you look, so he cuts it out. âsorry, sorry. iâm done now. how come?â
you take his hand again and hold it tight. âwhat if you get hurt?â you ask in the nicest way possible, out of care. âi donât wanna see you hurting, pete. this mission sounds really... dangerous.â he runs his thumb over the back of your hand, his grin faltering a bit. âit is, but iâm ready for it. iâll be fine.â
youâre not convinced yet. that line he likes to overuse isnât enough to do the trick.
his eyes searching for yours, peter brushes a piece of your hair back. âhave a little faith in me, babe.â âno, i... i do. i have the most faith in you, peter.â you find yourself frowning as he twirls your locks around his finger. âthatâs not the problem.â peterâs voice becomes a whisper. âwhat is it, then? talk to me.â
you do the opposite because youâre afraid youâll upset him further, which is the last thing he needs right now. your silence prompts peter to fill it. âwould it make you feel better if i say mr. stark is keeping an eye on me?â heâs smiling sheepishly, you scoffing. âoh, like he kept an eye on you in amsterdam?â
the only eye related activity that happened there was peter almost losing one of his. heâd come back with an eyepatch and couldnât see out of it for over a month. to this day, thereâs still a bit of blood in it when you look close enough.
âi already told you, that was my fault,â peter grumbles, turning so he faces forward. âi didnât listen to him-â âwho gives a shit? heâs the one who put you in that situation!â you blurt out. youâve been way too patient this whole time, and now youâre reaching your breaking point. âyou say that like i didnât wanna be there.â peter clenches his jaw, still mostly calm.
âeither way, mr. stark,â you mock what peter always calls him, âwas supposed to keep you safe, and he didnât. iâm scared itâs gonna happen again.â letting out a noise close to a growl, peter stands up from the bed. âyouâre not listening to me, y/n. everything was fine. i just-â youâre not in the mood to hear him make excuses, so you interrupt.
âdo you know any other sixteen year olds who fight literal terrorists on their free time?â you rhetorically ask and get to your own feet. peter tries to walk away from you, only you follow him. âyouâre a kid, peter, in case you forgot.â he spins around to give you a nasty look. âdo you know any other sixteen year olds who stick to fucking walls?â
your heart starts to race from his sudden outburst. heâs scary when heâs mad, and he almost never gets mad at you. all you can do is blink dumbly. âdidnât think so,â peter spits. âthis is what iâm supposed to do, help people. is that so wrong?â his breathing becomes ragged as his anger grows.
âwhat about you? are you helping yourself?â you speak softly, expecting an answer this time. âyouâre not my fucking therapist, y/n,â he deflects the question. âi am your girlfriend, though. i care about you so much, you know that.â eyebrows furrowed in concern, you reach out for peter. he takes a step back. it doesnât take long for tears to cloud your vision.
âi was excited to share this with you, and i thought youâd be happy for me.â peter balls his hands into fists at his sides. his voice stays low. âinstead, you made it all about yourself. you can never let me enjoy team stuff.â youâre speechless, peter nodding as he lets his words sit. âthanks for the support.â
âyouâre an asshole,â you laugh out bitterly and wipe under your eyes.
he didnât mean to make you cry. he was so caught up in himself, he didnât realize you were.
peterâs whole demeanor changes. ây/n, baby...â he attempts to put a hand on your cheek, but you hit it away. âget off of me. what did i just say?â you sniffle, your tone harsh in contrast. âyouâre an asshole, peter.â he changes his mind about feeling bad. youâve berated him way more than he did you, anyway.
âyou should go. i have to be up early,â peter decides, even though heâd said you could stay the night. whatever, you donât want to anymore. âfine,â you agree shortly. âiâm leaving.â he stands there while you collect your things, shoving them into your bag. youâre going slow enough so he has a chance to stop you. he doesnât.
you pass by him on your way to his door, sucking in a breath. hereâs your official goodbye. âsee you later, peter. donât die.â âmhm, i wonât,â he replies, his tongue poking at his cheek. with one more shared look between you two, you make your grand exit, no doubt informing may of her nephewâs behavior before youâre gone.
peter immediately regrets the way he talked to you, and that youâre leaving things like this. you were only trying to protect him. youâll never be able to save the city like he does, so this is how you do it. he truly is an asshole for not seeing that.
frustration consuming him, peter kicks over his fully stuffed suitcase, its contents spilling out. he grits his teeth.
âfan-fucking-tastic.â
-
you donât talk to peter the whole two weeks heâs gone except for some are you alive and yes texts. heâd called you quite a few times, and was sent to voicemail for all of them. he gave you the benefit of the doubt because of timezones.
it was actually because you declined, which peter knew deep down was the real reason.
heâs coming home from his mission today. youâre not sure when or if he plans on dropping by. youâre not sure youâd like him to, either. you donât really get a choice in the end.
thereâs a series of knocks at your window, at some ungodly time in the night. youâre all too familiar with this routine. itâs peter.
you slip out from under your covers, a scowl already painting your face as you go to the window. surely enough, peter is perched in front of it, clad in red and black. the suit must be new because youâve never seen it. you push up the window and step aside so he can get through.
âthanks,â peter mumbles, climbing into your room less gracefully than usual. heâs sort of wobbly when he lands. âyeah,â you dully acknowledge. âhow was france?â âuh, good. you know, lots of cheese and all that.â his voice is muffled from his mask, since he hasnât taken it off yet. thatâs odd. âi was talking about the mission, but cool,â you almost laugh back.
âthe mission was... fine,â peter clarifies and scratches the back of his neck. he never describes something as simply being âfine.â when the boy talks, he lectures. youâre starting to get worried. âthatâs good. at least you didnât die, right?â you say to lighten the mood. peter awkwardly chuckles. âhaha, yeah. thank god for that.â
you hum and walk over to sit on your bed, peter staying where he is. âwhat time did you get back?â you wonder, a completely harmless question. âum, this morning,â he says in response, raising your suspicions. âwhyâre you still in the suit, then?â you squint at him. âi like it, by the way.â âthanks, y/n/n. i, uh,â peter trails off, no good explanations coming to mind.
youâre quickly developing a hunch for what what down. you wordlessly get up again, ïżŒmeeting peter by your window. heâs nervous to see what happens next. peterâs shoulders slump when your fingers land on his mask. you carefully lift it, revealing his face to you. his banged up, bloody face.
âsurprise.â peter musters up a grin, you tossing the mask at his chest. youâre beyond angry now. itâs not at him, athough it is at his injuries. âplease donât be mad,â he nearly begs, you shaking your head. you go to leave your room for some space. peterâs fingers wrap around your wrist, pulling you back. âi shouldâve listened to you, okay? iâm sorry,â he genuinely apologizes.
you still donât say anything while you look over his beaten body. thereâs a gash with stitches in it on his chin, a deep slice across the bridge of his nose, cuts littering his cheeks. heâs even got a busted lip for good measure. this might be the worst condition heâs let you see him in.
âyou were right, y/n. i think... i think iâm gonna sit the next one out. itâs too much for me, clearly,â peter continues, fingers sliding down to lock with yours. âyou should say you told me so.â âhow... how did this happen?â you manage to get out instead. âthe bad guy fought me,â he says with the hint of a smirk. âi won, though.â
itâs a relief that heâs handling this so well, even earning a laugh from you. that puts you more at ease.
âthis is probably a dumb question, but are you okay?â you brush your thumb over peterâs cheekbone gently, avoiding his scratches. ânot really. my face hurts a lot, and flash is gonna tease the hell out of me on monday.â his lips form a line, arms looping around your waist. itâs very much welcomed by you.
âyou just spent two weeks trying not to die, and youâre worried about flash?â you snicker and draw a heart on his skin. peter shrugs a shoulder. âheâs so mean to me.â he brings you in closer to him. âbesides, this is the normal kid stuff i should be focusing on.â youâre glad he finally came to terms with that. youâve been saying it for the longest time.
you smile wickedly at him. âexactly. so is all that homework you have to make up.â peter lets out a breathy laugh, you laying your head on his chest. âi missed you,â he tells you quietly. âreally wish i could kiss you right now.â âi missed you too, pete. so much,â you murmur into him. your hands settle on his biceps. âand, i forgive you.â âthanks, baby,â peter exhales.
âof course. once your lips are healed,â you pull back from his chest, making a kissing noise. âpucker up, lover- oh my god.â youâre looking up at him with wild eyes. peter gets reasonably startled from it. âwhat? whatâs wrong?â âyou... youâre bleeding!â you point at his stitches. he winces, touching the spot. thereâs blood, alright.
âcrap. do you have a bandaid or something?â peter gives you an apologetic smile. âmr. stark said i should cover them when this happens.â maybe, tony isnât so bad after all. you nod and take him by his hand. âyeah, in the bathroom. come with me.â
peter sits on the edge of your bathtub while you patch up his chin. he tells you more about the fun parts of his mission, you placing the cinderella bandaid over his gash. you have those from a while ago and also regular ones. however, he preferred the princess design.
âyou saw the real mona lisa? like, in person? thatâs insane.â you grin, smoothing down peterâs bandaid one last time. âyeah, sheâs even prettier up close.â peter returns the smile. âthanks for taking care of me, y/n. i swear i donât deserve you sometimes.â now pouting at him, you crouch down so youâre at his level. âitâs the other way around, peter.â
âletâs just agree to disagree,â he concludes and tucks a stray hair behind your ear. âi love you, okay?â âi love you, too.â you press a light kiss to his bandaid, getting a giggle from peter.
yeah, itâs going to be hell finding replacements for his lips.

Beyond The Lens (Josh Kiszka x Reader) Part 1
You pulled up to the park that your GPS had led you to, looking around for the guys. They had insisted on an informal meeting to get to know each other before you all hit the road together, suggesting a hike. You checked the address to make sure it was correct, then texted Danny to let them know you were there. Getting out of the car, you finally spotted them over by the start of what appeared to be the trail.
As you walked, you observed them. You had done a bit of research after being recruited for the job, so you knew all of them by name and somewhat what their personalities were like based off of the few interviews you had watched. Sam was talking to Danny, his arms crossed and listening intently to what he was saying. Josh and Jake on the other hand were in some sort of heated discussion, Josh's arms flailing as he tried to explain something and Jake with his hands on his hips. You could already tell this would be a wild few months. Sam was the first to notice you approaching, looking over Danny's shoulder and waving, alerting the rest of the group. You smiled and waved back.
"Hey guys, nice to meet you!" You said, introducing yourself. One by one they did the same, ending with Josh.
"Hey mama, I'm Josh. Think we'll have a lot of fun together." He said with a wink. You rolled your eyes and set off on the trail, hearing bickering behind you. You shook your head and carried on. After a while, Jake caught up and walked beside you.
"Sorry about my brother. He's the only one of us like that, promise." He said sincerely.
"It's okay, working in the business I do I've come across my fair share of guys like him." You said. He laughed and nodded.
"I can only imagine. Tell me more about yourself?" He asked. You thought for a bit about what to say.
"Well, I'm a band photographer obviously. I love to read and I do a lot of stuff outside when I can. I like to hike and explore places. I've got a cat at home that my sister is going to be watching while I'm gone, her name is Stevie."
"After Stevie Nicks?" He interrupted. You smiled and nodded. "That's sweet!"
"Yeah, she's great. I'll have to show you a picture one of these days. Hm, what else...I moved here a bit over two years ago to be closer to my family after my ex and I split up."
"Sorry to hear. So you're single?" He asked curiously.
"I am, but I'm not ready to date again. These few months on the road with you guys will help I think. Can't meet someone when you're rushing around the country in a different town every night!" You explained. The group of you arrived at a river. Finding the biggest rock you could you climbed up and sat on top of it, looking over at the guys. Jake had the same idea as you, Sam was already bounding through the water, Danny was filming everything, and Josh was stripping to get in the water. Down to his boxers, he jumped in.
"Hey sweetheart you should join us!" Josh called.
"I'm okay up here I think." You returned. He shrugged and floated on his back for a while. Eventually you did get down and stood next to Danny, who was watching them like a disapproving parent.
"What are your thoughts so far?" He asked you.
"About what, you guys?" You questioned, he nodded. "You guys seem pretty chill, aside from Joshua." He chuckled.
"He hates being called that. I'm glad you're mostly enjoying us though. Would suck if you didn't, being stuck with us for all that time." He joked. I laughed and looked at him.
"If that were the case I would have just cancelled on you guys!" You joked back. He feigned hurt, but couldn't keep a straight face.
You spent a few more hours with the guys, talking and laughing with them and getting to know them better. After a while you decided to head back home to finish packing and get some sleep before you had to get up early the next morning. You did exactly that, taking a hot shower before hopping in your bed. You thought back to everything you did today and smiled. This would be a crazy trip, but it was looking like it would be the most fun tour you had been on yet.
WOOO part 1 is out lovelies! I hope you like it, I know it's a bit slow right now and kind of short but it'll kick in soon enough! Happy new year's eve and stay safe tonight! As always let me know if you want to be added to the tag list!

Hi, I'm the anon who wanted to learn some basic Spanish and I'm looking for grammars
âĄâĄâĄ
So my first recommendation is for www.studyspanish.com/grammar because they have a really good intro to the basics of pretty much all of the grammar (minus some more advanced things)
Also I would recommend: https://tildesites.bowdoin.edu/~eyepes/newgr/ats/
And I can't go over every single piece of grammar in Spanish but I will do a very bare bones overview of the major tenses/moods that you'll find in Spanish and a basic explanation of them
If you're a beginner a lot of this may go over your head until you're there but I'm not totally sure of anyone's level so!
Strap in everyone, it's a long post again and I'm going to explain like a solid 65% of the most important Spanish grammar concepts including tenses and moods, and even I think I need a read more for this one.
I didn't include things like concordancia "agreement (between nouns/adjectives)" and other fundamentals because I assume you probably are aware of those and so I'm focusing more on verbs and tenses/moods, but if you are a total beginner I'm more than happy to discuss the fundamentals in more depth
As always if anyone has any questions on anything I've mentioned here specifically, please let me know. I have no problem delving deeper into specific concepts but this is just a general overview of most of the big grammar concepts you're going to come across as you learn Spanish.
-
First things first, they don't totally teach you this in Spanish, you kind of just have to figure it out yourself or delve into it later on by yourself but there are tenses and moods. I mean they teach you that there are tenses, but they don't totally explain the idea behind tenses and moods and I think it helps to know them to keep them straight.
It's not required learning but it is helpful for overall concepts. It is required learning if you're going more into the linguistics side of things though, but practically speaking you don't really need to know what a mood is to use subjunctive, but I find it helps.
-
What is a linguistic mood?
In Spanish a mood [modo or "mode"] refers to the ways in which grammar should be used. The moods encompass the tenses themselves.
There are three moods, and really you only need to worry about two.
There's the indicative, subjunctive, and the imperative.
Getting imperative out of the way real quick, it's commands. Commands are very easy to spot because they boil down to affirmative commands ["do it"] vs. negative commands ["don't do it"]. There are some things to mention with imperative but I'll do that towards the very end for miscellaneous grammar concepts
Indicative mood is hard to explain linguistically. It's honestly mostly defined as "not subjunctive or imperative". This is default explanation of things. Most of the tenses are indicative - present, preterite, imperfect, future, conditional.
Subjunctive mood is harder to explain but really important. It doesn't totally exist in English, at least not in a noticeable way so it's something that people really struggle with. Subjunctive mood is usually described as the mood you use for desires, wishes, polite requests, imposition of will, hypotheticals etc
You usually find that subjunctive is 1 of 2 things. It's usually either a kind of imposition of will, where it's one subject making a wish/request or imposition on another subject like quiero que hables "I want you to speak"....... or it's subjunctive clauses. Subjunctive clauses tend to be kinds of conditions, that something will happen once a condition is met; "until", "unless", "so that", "as long as", "provided that", "even if", "as if it were"... Those are kinds of subjunctive clauses.
Some subjunctive clauses make more sense than others for English speakers. It can be its own sort of topic.
...
A Tense on the other hand [tiempo or "time"] in Spanish refers to the time in which grammar is used.
A mood is used to explain the way in which Spanish gets used, but a tense determines if you're talking about it being past, present, or future... or something in between.
You can usually divide the tenses between past, present, or future. There are some "in-betweeners" which I'll mention in miscellaneous but in general it's like this:
Present [things happening now at this very moment] = Present Tense, Present Subjunctive
Past [things that happened or things started in the past (either completed actions or ones that may still be going on)] = Preterite, Imperfect, Imperfect Subjunctive
Future [things that will happen or have the ability to happen] = Future, Conditional, Future Subjunctive [*obsolete now mostly], Imperfect Subjunctive [sometimes] .......also ir + a + infinitivo expressions are somewhere between present tense and future, it's a thing, we'll get there
Again, tenses don't have much to do with the imperative mood because a true command is always "do it" or "don't do it" at that moment. If you're saying "I want them to do it" or "I wanted them to do it" that becomes subjunctive.
-
Present
The present tense is probably the most important tense because it encompasses a lot of things and it isn't always talked about fully. Plus it's the tense you use the most.
The present tense as the name implies talks about things happening now. Most of your declarative statements are things happening in the present. "I am", "you have", "we are here", "it is blue", etc tend to be present tense
The other facets of present tense are what make it more important than most tenses. In present tense there are two other important functions: "continuous present" and "short-term future"
Continuous present is synonymous with the gerund/progressive forms which I'll talk about more below in miscellaneous. What continuous present means is that you may be translating it as the -ing forms in your head. For example: leo may be "I read" as a present tense declarative statement like leo mucho "I read a lot"... or it could be leo "I am reading" depending on context. It's very subtle but something like leo el libro could be "I read the book" OR "I am reading the book". If you knocked on someone's door you would hear ya voy "I'm coming (right away)"
With the gerund forms, you are specifically talking about something happening right at that moment. But it is a function of present tense as well. Both are correct, mostly synonymous, and useful in their own ways but I mention it because it isn't often mentioned
There also exists a facet of present tense that is understood as "short-term future". There exists the possibility to use present tense to talk about things you plan on doing shortly or things that will happen in the very near future. This is somewhat different than ir + a + infinitive forms since those can be in any tense. It's just something to be aware of.
Preterite
Preterite tense (also called simple past) is nice and easy. It exists only in the past tense and it's for completed actions.
The hallmark of preterite is that they're actions rather than descriptions, and often involve set time phrases like ayer "yesterday", antiayer/antier "the day before yesterday", anoche "last night" or they include things like times, dates, days, or implied time frames
Think of preterite as "I did it", no muss no fuss
Imperfect
Imperfect tense is all muss and fuss
In linguistic senses, "imperfect" means "not yet completed", or "not yet past". You see it used for description rather than concrete actions and so it is very commonly used for narration and description; telling time in the past, talking about something's appearance or moods, and uninterrupted actions
In the context of preterite vs imperfect the very basic (possibly too reductionist, even) is that the imperfect tense is often used to set up a situation while preterite marks the action that interrupts the setting
In other words; dormĂa y sonaba el telĂ©fono "I was sleeping and the phone was ringing" is all imperfect and it seems to imply the sleep was not interrupted. Saying dormĂa y sonĂł el telĂ©fono is a mix of preterite and imperfect "I was sleeping and the phone rang". It stops being description and marks an "interruption" and if I read that, I would assume either "I" woke up, or we're paying special attention to the fact that the phone rang, and that it's not just casual description
Just like present tense, imperfect tense can be used as "continuous past"... saying leĂa could be "I read" [past] or "I was reading" [past continuous]. You could also say leĂ "I read" for preterite, though that's a completed action. Saying leĂa "I read" sounds more like description to me
You will also find that imperfect tense is used for "used to" to describe habitual things. This can be done with the verb soler [which only really exists in present tense as "to be in the habit of" or in imperfect "used to"]. Imperfect is a simpler way but it is important to note.
So for example: iba a la playa could be "I went to the beach" [description], "I was going to the beach" [continuous", OR it could be "I used to go to the beach" [habit that may or may not continue]
You often see this "used to" with certain time phrases or something qualifying it like cuando era niño/a "when I was a kid" or something like that. It's just important to note because saying something like vivĂa en Londres could be "I lived in London" or "I used to live in London"... If you saw it as vivĂa en Londres cuando era joven "I lived in London when I was young(er)" is more specifically a "used to" sort of phrase.
Future
Future tense is exactly what it sounds like
Actions that will happen in a long-term setting. Things that WILL happen, that imply more certainty.
You'll also want to note that it means "shall" as well. It's less common in English to say that, but in older texts and especially the Bible you're going to see future tense like that... no matarĂĄs is "thou shalt not kill", literally "you will not kill"... same with no robarĂĄs "thou shalt not steal"
Depending on tone, you might see no volveré translated as "I will not return / I won't return" or "I shall not return / I shan't return". Future tense has a sense of finality to it, very much like preterite does in past.
In general I would say that the future tense is unremarkable and kinder to non-native speakers, but do note that there are Spanish speakers who sometimes use future tense the way English might use present tense; serĂĄs idiota for example is a way to say "you're an idiot" rather than eres idiota (present tense)
I would say think of that particular expression as "stating the obvious" or "it's a foregone conclusion"... I only mention it because in some countries, especially Spain, you will see future tense used like that sometimes
Present Subjunctive
Present subjunctive is subjunctive mood that takes place either in the present, or the short-term future. It carries that same continuous and short-term future vibe
Again, subjunctive typically works with a set of 2 clauses [that is, two different subjects and verbs] with an imposition of will in some way... or subjunctive clauses. These just happen to be in present
So for example; quieren que (yo) hable con ella "they want me to talk to her"... has two clauses [ellos/ellas quieren and then yo hable] with a kind of imposition of will
This is common for polite requests or someone giving orders; exige que hagamos la tarea "he/she demands we do the homework"
Subjunctive clauses in present are more straightforward once you know the clauses: sea lo que sea "whatever it is / whatever it may be", or para que sepas "so that you know", or antes (de) que te vayas "before you leave"
Conditional + Imperfect Subjunctive
These two are often taught together and for good reason
The conditional tense is indicative, but it talks about something that will happen... as long as a condition has been met. It can be a little harder to nail down, but in "if/then" statements, conditional is the "then"
Conditional talks about things in the future and that can make it difficult for English speakers because we use the same conjugations for multiple things.... podĂa hacerlo "I could do it" is imperfect so it's past, it means I had the ability to do it... and podrĂa hacerlo "I could do it" is future, so it talks about something you do have the ability to do, but you haven't done it yet
Though I do need to say that "should" is usually either in present tense or conditional: debo decir "I should say" or "I must say"....
But then no deberĂa haberlo dicho "I shouldn't have said that". That kind of should is very often conditional and that can be weird for people
The main thing to know is that conditional isn't unlikely or doubtful, it just hasn't happened yet... but it COULD.
-
Imperfect subjunctive on the other hand is a very wide topic. What you need to know for this to make sense is that once upon a time in Spanish imperfect subjunctive was used for the past tense subjunctive [imperfect being "not yet complete", again]... and then you had a separate branch of subjunctive that was more future and that would have been your hypothetical situations and contrary to fact statements
Today the same tense pulls double duty so that's why it's a big topic
You'll see it for past tense subjunctive: querĂan que hablara con ella "they wanted me to speak with her"
But you'll also see it for more nebulous or doubtful futures. This is the kind of imperfect subjunctive that gets used with conditional tense.
In "if/then" statements, imperfect subjunctive is the "if". And that's what we mean by hypotheticals and "contrary to fact statements"
si fuera jefe/jefa "if I were the boss" is your if statement. I would call this contrary to fact. It implies "I" am not the boss
The "then" would be in conditional because you're talking about some condition being met... si fuere jefe/jefa, no lo harĂa "if I were the boss, I wouldn't do it"
Or, si tuviera dinero, viajarĂa en el extranjero "if I had the money, I would travel abroad". You can translate it as "if I were to have".
But don't hate on Spanish for doing this. English does it too. We say "if I was president" and "if I were president" and they both mean a contrary to fact future.
...Oh also I should mention that if you look up imperfect subjunctive conjugation you'll find two forms. So like you'll see hablara, hablaras, hablara, hablaran, hablĂĄramos... and you will see hablase, hablases, hablase, hablasen, hablĂĄsemos
Both conjugations are correct, but there's a lot of history involved in this that I can't totally get into without it being a big discussion.
Suffice it to say, it's historical, and Latin America tends to use the -ara and -iera forms for both. Spain makes more of a distinction, where they'll use -ara/-iera for past subjunctive, but use -ase/-iese more for the hypothetical subjunctive
So just as an example: both Spain and Latin America would say querĂan que lo hiciera "they wanted me to do it" because that's past subjunctive
But Latin America would say si tuviera dinero, comprarĂa una casa "if I had money I would buy a house"...
And Spain would more often say si tuviese dinero, comprarĂa una casa "if I had money I would buy a house"
Again, both are totally fine, but I personally don't use the -ase/-iese forms very much in my own life. I see and read them more than I use them myself, but I'm also in the United States and not Spain.
And that's your bare bones overview of the tenses and moods
-
I'll also just include some other key miscellaneous grammatical concepts real quick:
Silent Subject (sujeto tĂĄcito)
This is very basic and not talked about often, but in English we're taught that we always need to put the pronouns in our sentences. It's always "I do this" and "you do that"
And that makes sense for us because our conjugations have less variation; "do" could be anyone
But in Spanish, it's not as common to include the subject because the subject is often implies by the verb. If hablo only exists for yo, and hablamos is always nosotros/nosotras... then mentioning the pronoun seems irrelevant because it was implied
However, habla and hablan are different; habla could be "him" or "her" or "it" or even usted. And hablan could be multiple people but is it ellos or ellas or ustedes?
It becomes more common to mention the subject if there's a chance you'll be misunderstood
The general rule is you mention your subject and the verb... and you continue on until your subject changes and then you mention a new subject so no one's confused
As an example; ella habla con Marco y siempre menciona sus amigos y familia, pero Marco no habla mucho sobre su vida personal "she talks to Marco and always mentions her friends and family, but Marco doesn't talk much about his personal life"
When it's obvious like yo [except in certain tenses], you rarely mention the subject. Saying something like yo hago la tarea, yo limpio la sala, yo leo el libro doesn't come across as "I do the homework, I clean the room, I read the book"...... it comes across as "I am the one who does the homework, I am the one who cleans the room, I am the one who reads the book"
When you mention the subject over and over when it's obvious it sounds either like bragging like "look at all the things I do aren't I great!", or it sounds like complaining "I'm the one who did this, I'm the one who did that, not you, it was me"
When it's obvious you tend to keep the subject out. But you can put it in when you want some emphasis! Such as yo mando aquĂ "I'm the one in charge here / I give the orders around here"... which is kind of like if you'd italicized or bolded the "I/I'm" there
Infinitives
Infinitives are the dictionary form of verbs, you probably know that already even if you didn't know what they were called
They're unconjugated so the show up ending in their -ar, -ir, or -er forms... hablar, vivir, comer for example
By themselves you read them like... hablar "to speak/talk"; that's what I mean by dictionary forms
When you come across multiple verbs together, one is conjugated and the other tends to be in either infinitive (or gerund but that's next)
So, quiero aprender "I want to learn", quiero nadar "I want to swim", or quiero aprender a nadar "I want to learn to swim" for example
Also be aware that infinitives can be used as the noun forms of verbs. That is, they are "the action or result of a verb". In English we tend to translate them as the progressive forms, but in Spanish the gerund is a verb conjugation implying motion or continuation
For example: errar es humano, perdonar es divino "to err is human, to forgive divine".
Or hablar es fĂĄcil pero escuchar me cuesta "speaking is easy but listening is difficult for me"
Gerund/Progressive
The gerund form (also called progressive) is the equivalent of the -ing forms in English
In Spanish they usually end in -ando, -iendo, sometimes -yendo, and there are a few weird ones here and there because of irregular verbs
They're different somewhat in that in Spanish, gerund is a form of motion or movement in some way, so we don't use them quite the same way that Spanish does - see above with infinitive
You're using this when you're specifically talking about something in the moment.
Very often you're going to see gerund forms either by themselves, or you'll see them with the verbs estar, ir, andar, seguir, continuar or some kind of verb of motion or continuation
As an example teniendo esto en cuenta "keeping that in mind"
Or... estoy aprendiendo "I am learning", voy aprendiendo "I'm learning" [as in "it's a process and I'm in the middle of it" or "I keep on learning and I am making progress"], or sigo aprendiendo "I'm still learning".
Additionally you can see infinitive and gerund used together in some cases: quiero seguir aprendiendo a nadar "I want to keep learning to swim"
Past Participles
The past participles are other conjugations of verbs
While the infinitive is the noun form of a verb, a participle is the adjectival form of a verb
These mostly end in either -ado or -ido... although there's a whole host of irregular ones that you need to memorize
By themselves they can be just straight up adjectives and can lead into the passive voice... or just used by themselves
dicho eso "that said / that being said" where dicho is the past participle of decir
Or something like limpiado "cleaned" is the past participle form of limpiar "to clean"; and you could say el suelo limpiado "the cleaned floor" or la ventana limpiada "the cleaned window"
Past participles lead straight into passive voice, or the perfect tenses
Perfect Tenses
Speaking of the perfect tenses, these are "tenses" that are sort of their own thing but they use forms of the verb haber + past participles
The perfect tense is like a time traveler. It can exist in any tense and any mood (minus imperative). It's function is to make everything just a little more past tense
Again, if "imperfect" means "not yet completed"... then "perfect" means "already completed", since it literally means "done thoroughly"
The perfect tenses make use of haber and you most frequently are going to see present perfect and the pluperfect [sometimes called pluscuamperfecto which is "more than perfect"... aka "past-er than past"]
These follow very closely with English.
he hablado is "I have spoken/talked" (present perfect), and habĂa hablado is "I had spoken/talked" (pluperfect)
The goal of perfect tenses is to make everything a little bit past tense while still keeping the impact of it in the present which is why I say it's a time traveler.
Instead of hablé "I spoke" you're saying he hablado "I have spoken", which means that you're now reporting on what happened once you did it. Maybe you're saying "I've talked with them and this is how it happened" or "I've already talked to them and it made no difference". Either way you're reporting on a past event but it still has bearing on the present.
Pluperfect is the same just more past. You're using the imperfect form of haber + past participle and it's very common in 3rd person narration. This is something that someone "had done". It's still got some bearing on the present but the action took place further in the past
habĂa hablado con Ă©l antes "I had spoken with him before" makes it sound like you're reaching further into the past, but you're still going to report on how it went
But like I said, they could be used in any tense or mood except imperative; si lo hubiera/hubiese sabido, no lo habrĂa hecho "if I had known, I wouldn't have done it"
Indirect Commands
Indirect commands are the murky space between the subjunctive and imperative moods
It's very simple though. It's basically you're telling someone else to have something be done. Kind of like delegating a command.
que canten for example is "let them sing", but it could be translated as "sing" as a plural command... it's sort of like pointing to someone and being like "I want them to sing" or "go tell them to sing"
Indirect commands are more polite than regular commands. A command can be rather brusque and impolite, depending on how it's said or phrased. Indirect commands are just nicer.
Instead of hazlo "do it" you might soften it with que lo hagas "go ahead and do it"
Indirect commands can be more impersonal and distant however. They can be used as a more... patronizing tone almost? For example: que asĂ sea is "so be it". Literally that's "let it be so"
"We" Commands
The "we" commands are technically imperative mood but I mention them separately because they show up a lot as "let's"
For example hablemos con ella "let's talk to her"
Or something like seamos amables "let's be nice"; no seamos crueles "let's not be cruel"
It's a less common type of command, where you're part of the nosotros group, but also issuing a command to everyone else in the nosotros group
Sometimes the "we" commands are done just with present tense, but there's always the option: nos vamos could be "we're going" but may be "let's go"... while vĂĄmonos is "let's go" specifically
Oh did I mention you can stick object pronouns and reflexives onto these? Because you definitely can; hagĂĄmoslo "let's do it" or hagĂĄmonoslo "let's do it (for ourselves)"
The next ones are bigger and more confusing so I'm just going to attach my tags and other things that might help if that's okay because they are important but they're big and confusing:
Active Voice vs. Passive Voice
Indirect Objects
Direct Objects
Reflexives / Pronomials Additional reflexive stuff Dativo Ă©tico which is very advanced and confusing but involves reflexives so I will include it but just be aware it's like advanced advanced stuff
This is also not including spelling changes for stem-changing verbs and verbs with certain endings like -car, -gar, -zar.
And I also didn't mention irregular verbs just in general so they're really that's more of a linguistic thing. I can just tell you some verbs are irregular and require memorization so you get the spelling right and so you sound smart
I also didn't include por and para because good lord that is a huge topic and very confusing for people so really just better for me to link to more info on it rather than try to explain it because it's hard to do briefly in a way that feels complete and makes sense
Also I didn't include different verbal expressions like tener expressions. Those are important but sort of separate grammar concepts in my mind. If you've studied other Romance Languages you probably have seen them and are familiar, but it's more of a translation thing because English speakers are more likely to say "I am hungry" rather than "I have hunger" for example.

Sorry x Rare
A/N: I got two lyric requests for Sorry by Beyonce and Rare by Selena Gomez. They were both sort of two sides of the same coin so I wrote them together it mostly goes from rare to sorry. Thanks for the requests, fingers crossed it lives up to what you wanted! <3
Synopsis: You and Harry have been together for a long time but heâs not the same man you fell in love with anymore.
-----
I move my dinner around on my plate, my gaze on the man pacing outside the restaurant on his phone. My man. But it didn't really feel like that these days. These days, Harry was a stranger to me--late nights, phone calls interrupting dinner, waking up to find him gone and not even sure if he'd come home at all.
I watch him remove the phone from his ear in a rush, stare at it, and then shove it aggressively in his pocket. He walks back in, cheeks pink and huffing.
"Should we ask for the bill?" He sits down in a flurry. I stare at his barely-eaten meal and my own dinner mashed to bits.
"We've barely had dinner."
"Babe, we've been here for over an hour since..." he takes his phone back out to inform me of how much time exactly but something must catch his attention because his sentence dies on his lips. I stare, he was so distant lately. "I'll drop you off at home, I've got to meet the boys they decided to talk business-"
"It's 8pm on a Thursday," I state the obvious. "Can't you catch up with them la-"
"This isn't an argument Y/N," Harry finally looks at me. He was done discussing it. He lifts his hands to the waiter and a minute later dinner's been paid for. He wasn't my baby, I think as we stroll outside to his car. I don't know who this man was.
***
I wake up the next morning with the weight of Harry on the other side of the bed. I could smell him, the booze sitting in his pores.
âUgh,â I groan, not wanting to smell that first thing in the morning. I get up and start my day before I head to work. Soon, Harry appears squinting as I stir sugar into my coffee.
âI need a coffee,â he says, his voice hoarse. It used to sound sexy but now it was just another reminder that things changed. We lived like roommates and it hurt that he never wanted to talk. Half the time, he acted like I wasnât even there.
I watch him settle with his coffee, taking the first sip and letting out a deep breath. A memory comes to me suddenly, the first year we were dating,
âI think this is the best coffee Iâve ever had,â it was the first night Harry had stayed the whole night and Iâd made him coffee in my outdated coffee maker. It came out burnt half the time but that morningâs cup was decent. Weâre swaddled in my blankets--the room I rented back then had poor circulation in the winter.
âI think youâre still slightly drunk,â I lean my shoulder against his and cup the warm drink. âIâve definitely had better coffees.â
âMaybe coffees are just better the morning after,â he says, glancing at me and I know he can see the flush on my cheeks. He knew I was shy talking about certain things in the light of day.
âWe can say that,â I mumble into the cup. âItâs just nice to have a heat source.â
âHere,â he takes the cup from me and reaches over to put both on the nightstand.
âHey I wasnât done with that.â
âI know but if youâre cold, I know this other heat source--it even works for hypothermia.â
His statement causes a blood rush that warms me already but I donât say no to what he has in mind. I could make us another cup later.
Harry catches me staring when he looks over and raises an eyebrow. I snap out of my thoughts and twist my lips into a smile, looking back at my own drink bitterly. Who was this man in front of me? Out loud, I ask: âHow was your night? You came in late.â
âI was out with the boys.â he says in a tone that meant he didnât want to talk about it. âIt got late.â
âA text wouldâve been nice,â I say, still looking at my cup.
âSânot like you were waiting up,â he turns to walk back towards the bedroom.
âLearned not to,â I mumble but I know heâs heard me with the way he pauses. But he didnât care enough to argue, dispute it, nothing. He leaves.

"Guess who just made a commission that's more than I used to earn in a year?" April walks into the small office, an infectious grin on her face.
"You sold him on it?" I put away the file I'm working on and jump up to hug my friend.
"I had to flirt a little--give him a vivid picture of what he could have there, and he signed! I'm bloody brilliant."
April was my American ex-pat who I met when she was looking for a flat a few years ago. And now here she was, working for me at the small real estate office I managed with a few other people I considered friends.
"Do you know if he was single?" I tune back in to hear Janelle asking.
"No, don't give her bad advice!" I scold Janelle. âWe donât date clients.â
"I'm miserably single," April pouts. "I'll take advice even if itâs bad."
"Bad advice is to stay with your college sweetheart to the point where you're not sure he even cares about you." I say to no one in particular. It was just us in the office today, and they knew everything about my life so I didn't care much. But the pin-drop silence that follows is different. I look up to see my friends eyeing each other. "What?"
"Nothing." They stay tight lipped but I push and they crack. "Well, so...we know things are rocky between you and Harry..."
"Things aren't rocky," I clarify. "They're just...nonexistent."
"Right," April slides closer. "Soo, we saw him at the club yesterday."
I raise my eyebrow, "He told me he was meeting up with his boys."
"Oh!" They sound surprised I know, but they look at each other again so I push them. "He was...there was a girl? Sitting on his lap for most of the night? Like, nothing happened I don't think so?" She turns to look at April at the end of each sentence.
Personally, I feel gut-punched even though I suspected this. I knew he wasn't where he said he was going to be sometimes, or with who he said he was going to be with. But he cut our own dinner short last night to be with strangers yesterday? I grip the pen in my hand.
"Y/N honestly...you know we love you and support you. But, you're a special girl and you deserve better than that sod."
"Yeah," Janelle puts her hand on my shoulder. "You're a gem Y/N. There's someone else out there who's gonna see how rare you are."
"I know," I blow my cheeks out. We'd had different conversations like this before, although never this direct. I guess we'd never had direct proof of what my husband was doing until now though.
"He's an idiot not knowing you're so rare," my friends try to comfort me. I feel my eyes well up and I swipe at them. I wasn't going to cry at work but they must sense the tears because they excuse themselves, "We're going to get you a tea, and some pastries to celebrate April's sale. April?"
I keep my face buried in my hands as they leave, take a few deep breaths. "I am rare," I say to myself but even that makes me laugh bitterly. Harry and I had been together for 5 years and here I was trying to count up all the reasons we should stay together when he didn't even care. He was out with other women, and I was waiting around for him.
"I'm rare," I say again. "I'm special, I deserve better. I...deserve better."
When will u be home tonight? I text Harry before I lose my nerve.
Busy he says. Thatâs it. And then, Why?
What time? I ask again.
8 or so, he responds.
Okay, we need to talk then. I put my phone away, too scared what he might text back. A tear falls from my cheek onto my keyboard, landing on the letter H. It mocks me. I wipe it off, and before I can think about what I'm doing I smash the letter down with my fist. I stand up and walk to the back of the office, a window overlooks the busy street. I'd had enough, I decide. Fuck Harry.
Iâm not sure how long I stand there stewing, but my friends walking in with pastries and tea ends the emotional boiling pot from overflowing.
"Thanks," I take the cup from them.
âSo we were talking and...â April looks at Janelle and she nods. âYou should come out with us some time. Like...tonight. Dance with us, with other people...â
âI...Iâve got something at 8,â I come up with an excuse. As angry as I was, I wanted to have this conversation. It was long overdue.
***
I check my time again, the last text Harry sent me Ok. But it was 8:25 and Harry still wasnât home. Iâd give him five more minutes, I decide. Iâd already tried to ring him with no answer.
I stare at the ring on my finger, it was supposed to symbolize a promise he made to me. What a fucking joke. I shouldâve never said I do in the first place.
Was it young love, I wonder. Did we do this too fast and we were just set up to fail? But I remember the good memories, the soft and sweet times between us.
âI-Iâve never done something like this before,â I tell Harry. âI hate heights.â
âListen,â he crowds around me, blocking my view of his friends who are walking up the narrow trail like it was any old walkway. âYou go in front of me, Iâll have my hand on your back the whole time. I wonât let you fall. I promise.â
I look up into those gentle eyes and swallow my fear. âOkay.â
âI promise it will be so worth it,â he gushes, his excitement uncaged now that Iâd agreed. âThereâs no lights there so the stars are so bloody bright--I know youâre going to love it!â
I canât help it, my lips crack into a smile at his boyish excitement. He catches it and pauses, a breath in this whirlwind of a night. What started out as a house party turned into a walk to a local beach which turned into a hike into the woods and up a precarious--and very steep--ridge to get to an isolated lookout. Only with Harry did I find myself in these situations. And I loved it. I loved him, I realise then. My expression must change because he tugs on my hand, probably worried Iâd change my answer.
âWalk ahead,â he instructs and I nearly tip toe on the ridge thatâs at least 30 feet across. But his steady hand on my back pushes me gently and I walk across confidently until I look down 2/3 of the way. I freeze in place but Harryâs ready. âY/N, youâre safe here. Look at me-look...â
I crane my neck and he grounds me, oh my god how did I just realise now how in love I was with him? He squeezes my hand, asks if I was okay. I had to be, I couldnât stay stuck in the middle.
Inch by inch we finally make it to the other side and I jump off with a yelp which sets Harry off in a burst of laughter. Pretty soon heâs lifted me over his shoulder and carries me to the lookout on the edge. My feet had been through enough, heâd said.
And he was right--it was so worth it; the view with all the stars laid out. The buildings and their light pollution below were blocked out by the outcrops and it made the stars twinkle in all their glory. It made it the perfect place to be with the person I loved.
âIsnât it the most incredible view?â Harry whispers in awe behind me, his arms wrapping around my waist.
âI.....I have no words apparently,â I laugh and turn in his arms. âThanks for pushing me, this...it was worth it.â
He tucks a strand of hair behind my ears and gazes at me in a way that makes me want to squirm. But I hold his gaze.
âDo you know how beautiful you are?â he asks with a smile.
âCompared to the view,â I glance behind us. âI guess Iâm alright.â
âNo,â he guides my face back towards his. âThis view over that one, any day. Mâjust that lucky.â
My words die on my lips as Iâm overwhelmed by this feeling between us, the one I thought would keep us together like this forever.
He raises an eyebrow when I go silent and I shrug, âIâm all out of words today.â
I close my eyes as he kisses my temple. I turn back around and we spend the moment in silence, drinking in the view. His friends chatter around us but theyâre background noise. My life felt like a movie right now.
Before we leave as a group, I tug Harry back. This was a good as place as any to tell him. I press my lips to his, and it takes him a second but heâs kissing me back. Before it can get carried away I push away and tell him what Iâd been thinking all night, âI love you.â
He takes a step back, and then heâs grinning and pulling me back. âI love you! I love you listen, Iâve been wanting to say that for weeks!â
âWeeks?!â
âYeah weeks! My sister said it was too soon, I might scare you off!â
I think about a few weeks ago, I was intensely shy around him even then. Maybe she was right, but the idea that he talked about me to his sister makes me flush. I wrap my arms around his waist âI just...this moment is so perfect. I never want it to end.â
âIt doesnât have to.â heâd promised. âIâm yours forever Y/N.â
When 8:30 comes and goes I call April, she lets me know where they were. âWeâre so happy youâre coming! Are you sure you donât want us to meet you somewhere else?â she shouts into the phone. When I tell her I just wanted to be where they were she reminds me to text them when I was nearby.
I have to dig into the back of my closet, past the pantsuits I wore to work, the casual dresses and loungewear. I still had some of my old party clothes, just a bit tighter than they used to be. But for where I was going, it would fit in.
Before I leave, I take a pen and scrawl a note: âGreat talk"
My friends spot me as I walk in. The music is instantly too loud, the lights too bright, and there are too many people. But one of my them shoves a drink in my hand and pretty soon itâs the best place on earth. It was exactly where I needed to be. I turn off my cellphone and enjoy myself.
After a certain point, I donât even know who Iâm talking to, but pressed up against a body, feeling wanted, it drives me to keep dancing all night. Eventually, I crash at Aprilâs and donât roll out of hers until 11 the next morning. Harryâs barely an afterthought until Iâm tucked in the taxicab taking me home and turn on my phone. 8 missed calls, 2 voicemails and 13 texts.
Iâm shocked at the volume, Harry hadnât blown up my phone like this in over a year. I listen to one voicemail: âWhere the hell are you? I come home an hour late and youâre bloody gone with this stupid note here. Pick up! Iâve called you a billion times.â
I stare at my phone, I hadnât heard Harry this passionate since...well it was a long time. And all it took was going out late and not answering his calls, giving him a taste of his own medicine. It almost makes me angrier; I had to partake in this juvenile dance to get his attention, even though weâd been married nearly 2 years.
Heâs on a call when I get home, talking numbers or something. I head directly to the shower, clean up, and take my sweet time. It mustâve driven him mad waiting for me because by the time Iâm out he blows a gasket.
âWhatâs this stunt you pulled last night? Wanting to talk and leaving me a stupid sarcastic note just because Iâm late? Where were you?â
âOut,â I shrug. âI didnât know you were late. You didnât text.â
âI didnât tex--oh I see, now weâre being petty yeah?â
That irked me, âIâm not being petty. Itâs not like I get the same courtesy when youâre out late!â
âIâm busy, I canât always be texting you!â
Excuses, I laugh and he looks at me like Iâm crazy. âBusy what? Screwing other women-â
âDonât be making shit up-â
âIâve had people tell me that they see you with other women Harry! Sânot a far stretch!â
That quiets him. Finally, he comes forward to stand inches away. âY/N, câmon. You and me...this is stupid. Sure I go out to party but Iâm not-â
âStop.â he was actually trying to talk his way out of this. And because Iâd rather step in front of an oncoming train than cry in front of him, I head to the front door and walk out. Iâd find someplace to crash today, but I wasnât doing this.
***
âHowâre you doing?â Janelle asks. Iâd shown up at her doorstep and she set up her guest bed. She had plans so I spent most of my time burying myself in work, trying to get rid of all that angry energy pent up in me. Janelle had just come home.
âIâm just trying to move on. I donât want to talk about him, I just donât care at this point--Iâm fed up!â
âAs you should be,â she agrees. âListen, I know we had a crazy night yesterday but Iâm going out with some friends today and...maybe itâll help you?â
I think about the killer headache this morning, but I also remember how good it felt to forget for a bit. I agree. Before I know it, Janelleâs found something that fits me and weâre back at a different club than the night before. Her friends are familiar faces but after a few drinks weâre all best friends. It feels great. Until I spot Harryâs face.
âThatâs enough,â his face looms over mine as he pushes away the man Iâm up against.
âWhat the fuck Harry...â I trail off as he pulls me away from the middle of the crowd. I try to pry his hand off but thereâs too many people and heâs moving too quickly...and Iâve had a lot of drinks. âLet me go!â I say when we finally step away. Weâre in what must be a private room. He seemed familiar with it--of course.
âSo just because you heard Iâm out and about some nights, you decide to come here and fuck around with random men?â
âExcuse me?â I stare at him, he was out of his mind. âIâm out having fun with my friends! Iâm not here because of you.â
âReally? You come to the same place I come to all the time and dance with these strangers? And youâre drunk as fuck!â
âSince when did you care?â I ask. âJust leave me alone. Youâve been doing that perfectly fine the last few months.â
âIâm your bloody husband Y/N, you canât just-â
âThen act like one!â I shout, and in the muffled quiet of the room with the bass thumping through it rings out. âI donât need you! And you made it clear you donât need me. These rings are a fucking joke, here-â I take mine off and throw it at him.
âYou donât mean it-â
âI do.â I give him a level stare, suddenly clear-headed. Maybe Iâd process it later, but right now I was finally seeing what heâd become. He deserved to feel how I felt, and quite frankly, I didnât give a fuck. I flip him with both hands, âQuite frankly Harry, you can suck my d-â
âHarry!â A shrill voice rings out from the entrance that now carries the loud beats of the dance floor, swallowing my words. âLiam told me you were here!â
I glance at the brunette in the doorway and back at him. I couldnât even muster an eye roll; I had enough.
âY/N!â Harry calls my name as I walk out.
âNo itâs me, Becky?!â she tries to correct him. I canât help but laugh as I make my way back to my friends with a drink in my hand, feeling free.
***
âY/N, itâs Harry. I donât know how it got this shite just please call me back. Just give me five minutes thatâs all I n--message deletedâ
âHeâs moved on to the office phone then?â Janelle asks, her desk was beside mine so sheâd heard him as I checked my messages. It was two weeks since that glorious night when Iâd dumped Harryâs ass. Although a lot of my things were still at our house, I was just staying in a hotel right now while I figured things out. One thing I knew for sure though, I didnât want to see him again.
âItâs pretty pathetic,â I say. It was also pathetic how long Iâd stayed waiting around for us to be magically fixed. But that was something I was working on getting past.
âYouâre glowing without him,â April says from where sheâs getting her files together. âHavenât you got that showing out east?â
âYeah, oh god is that the time?â I rush to get my files in order. âIâll catch up with you later-â
âWeâre still getting drinks after?â
âYes, drinks!â I call out as I leave the office and head down to the lobby. I donât expect Harry there, and I barely have time for him as he comes up to keep my pace.
âHarry, Iâve got somewhere to be please leave me alone.â
âY/N, wait just please listen to me.â
âNo.â
â2 minutes!â
âNot even 1,â I spot my cab out front and head towards it. Iâm about to get in but Harry holds the door. âHarry let go Iâm going to be late.â
âJust let me talk to you, please!â
I finally look at him and heâs quite a sight. His hair is matted and without itâs usual bounce. Heâs got a rough look and a 5 âo clock shadow.
âYou had plenty of time to talk to me for months, you were too busy at the club. Sorry not sorry,â I tug at the door and he lets go, I donât spare a backwards glance as we drive away.
One of the showings is successful, I manage to sell the family on the home and we set up a meeting to go over details at my office later in the week. Iâve got a bounce in my step as I return to the office. I tell the girls Iâd meet them at the bar as I finalize my papers at the office. My bounce falters when I go head out after 5 to see Harry waiting outside the building.
âY/N,â he calls out when he sees me. âIâm not going to leave until you talk to me.â
âThatâs called stalking,â I say. A few people walking past us turn to glance at him and he notices. He moves to the inside lobby and asks me to follow. With a big sigh I do.
âI know what I did.â he begins.
âCongratulations,â I roll my eyes.
âNo wait, I know what I did to you. And sorry canât cover it. Just let me make it up to you, we have history and-â
âYou donât get it.â I stop his monologue from going any further. âIâm gonna be just fine. Without you. You didnât care about our history until you couldnât have me. I donât know what happened to you Harry, but youâre not the man I fell in love with-â
âI know,â he says, tears of frustration coating his lashes. âI fucked up, I-I didnât see what I had right in front of me and I just-â
âLet her slip away? Is that the best you can come up with?â I scoff. âYou know what Harry? Iâm done with this! Boy...bye.â
âY/N just--â he grabs my arm before I can leave and pushes something cold into my palm. My wedding ring.
âI donât want this,â I push it back in his hand.
âPlease just take it--hold onto it,â he pushes it back into mine and closes my fingers over it. âI canât...I canât hold onto it just take it! You donât even have to think about it-â
âHarry,â I soften my tone. He was desperate and even though some part of me thought it was about time he felt this type of way, my heart hurt a little. I didnât want him to see that though so I just tuck the ring into the pocket of his button up and pat it. âGoodbye Harry.â
I walk away with my head held high even though he calls out to me. I walk the few blocks to where my friends are waiting and their warm smiles are enough to help me push the memory of Harryâs teary eyes, and the real history we did have once upon a time away. I was done with him, no longer thinking about him.
I just kept telling myself, I was rare like a gem and I had to see that. And maybe one day, someone else will too.

first time together
REAL LIFEÂ COUPLE TBS X READER RATING: SMUT
I smiled nervous but excited sitting in the sofa in his very nice newly renovated house every so often sipping my glass of wine trying to not think about the tension in the room. We had been dating a good while now and due to work and such we hadn't really seen each other my h recently and one of those things when you can't see each other in a relationship is communication. He'd been working on some new things top secret so he couldn't tell me much but he'd been away alot and we'd been chatting mostly over whatsapp and phone calls. I had noticed our conversations some evening turn form our usual 'aww I miss you too', 'ill have to give you a huge hug when I get home' more to things like 'I wish you were here with me⊠if I had you here in this big bed maybe I wouldn't feel so lovely x', 'i miss you so badly, maybe when I get home you can stay over all weekend ;)' And so here I was with the intention to be staying l weekend, I had stayed the night before here and there not often as while it was getting revocated he was staying with his mum and sister so we didn't stay the night together too often. And more then anything the tension was there because as long as we've been dating, we hadn't had sex. We just hadn't yet been busy, and with all that was going on with work, and his house and the move it was all so busy and we just kinda never found the right time. It didn't bother me and honestly I don't think I bothered him that we didn't but I think we both need that this weekend it was probably gonna happen. And I was excited to say the least if a little worried. He wondered back from dropping something off in the kitchen and leant on the living room doorframe in his blue suit pants, light blue button down his hair fixed as usual even if I had been messing with it tonight, he smiled at me but with a little yawn I almost awwed it was kinda cute like a sleepy little puppy "Oohh sorry. Don't know what's up with me" he says "It's alright if your tired tommy you've had a long few days" "You wanna head to bed?" "Sure" I nodded I got up going to take my class but he stopped me "I'll deal with this and I'll lock up you go on up" he says kissing my cheek I smiled handing him the glass and heading up the stairs all the way to his bedroom I could tell he had cleaned it and made the bed with all fresh sheets before I got here I kicked my shoes off putting them close to my little suitcase with my stuff I tried getting at the zip to my dress but I was struggling damn stupid back zip "need some help?" He asks as he too arrived in the bedroom "Ohh uhh yes please" I blushed I heard him step over, I felt the heat of his breath on my neck his hands rested on my waist and slipped up to the back of my dress and the to of my zip he gently pulled the zip down making sure to be slow and tender he stopped about half way down my back just an inch or so below my bra clasps I felt him move closer and press a kiss to my shoulder "... We don't. Have to do anything you don't want to. You know that right?" He asks I blushed s little and turned to face him wrapping my arms gently around his neck to give him a cuddle "I want to. You've waited long enough" "It doesn't matter how long I've waited. If you don't want to we won't" he says giving my nose a kiss "okay kitten?" "I know but I want to" "Yeah? You⊠really want to?" "Very much. I've missed you" "Umm I've missed you too" he smirked almost moaning he was so excited pulling me as tight to him as possible kissing me rather hard I kissed back as fast as I could trying to keep at his speed his hands stroking the small of my back as we kissed he pulled back a moment getting some breath I smiled and took the opportunity to slip a hand down and begin undoing the buttons on his shirt he smirked looking down at my hand gently biting his lip he looks back up at me licking across his bottom lip before pulling the rest of the zip down "you uhh you look really nice tonight" he muttered almost like he'd forgotten about saying it "Thank you. You do too" I giggled "Can I?" He hinted tugging on my dress a little I nodded as I had now undone his shirt completely gently stroking on the smooth skin I had exposed. He pulled my dress off me gently making sure not to hurt me or damage my dress till it pooled at my ankles he looked me over "fuck." He gasped "you look amazing" he said almost unable to stop looking at me but within a second his hand moved to my neck and cheek "come here" he smirked pulling me close kissing my lips with so much passion and energy he pushed his shirt off throwing it to the floor with my dress and took both his hands away to work at his belt and pants our kisses quickly turned more passionate with tounge and heat in each kiss once he kicked his pants off his legs he held me close again I giggled a little pulling back and moving to kneel on the mattress maybe a millisecond after he joined me I sat up a little excited but nervous before I spoke "Did you need me to-" He interrupted before I even finished taking my hands in his intertwining our fingers "no thank you, I uhh I'm hard enough" he nods "Are you?" I giggled with a little bit of a smirk "Why don't you find out" he smirked pulling me gently back to a kiss I smirked into it moving a hand down to stroke across his boxers "fuck" he gasped as I stroked gently across his shaft thought the thin elastic fabric he didn't waste Time both hands slipping up to gently fondle my breasts "fuck you feel so good" he muttered between kisses before pulling back "you uhhh⊠I'll" he nodded I was a bit confused before he moved to his side of the bed going for his draw I then understood and gently kicked my panties off as he pushed his boxers off and got the condom sorted out "damn thing how is both ways wrong!" He complained "Theses only two options Thomas' "Yeah and apparently both are wrong" "Blowing on it helps" "Does it?... Ohh yeah a little bit I think it's that way." He muttered "ha! Got it how did you know something I didn't?" "How so?' "I imagine I've been putting on condoms a lot longer then you have?' "Ehh maybe, but teenage boys where always useless at it honestly I felt better doing it anyway atleast I knew it was right" "That's fair. I wonder if I was useless like that as a teenage boy?" "Maybe" 'i don't know. I don't think I was. Then again we used way more because my at that time girlfriend she had a thing with using the flavoured ones. Said she didn't like how my dick tasted" I giggled a little and gave his vock a gentle kiss "I think it's fine" I smiled "Umm well your welcome to give it a kiss anytime you want my little kitten" he cooed "Sorted?" "Yep. Sorted. So uhhh" he blushed a little "missionary? Cowgirl?... Doogy? It's up you kitten" "Missionary." I nodded "Umm okay." He smirked I laid down excitedly and he happily climbed ontop of me "you want me to stop, or slow or anything you just tell me okay?" "I will" "Promise?' 'I promise" "Okay" he smirked leaning down to kiss me I happily kissed him back gently opening my legs out he happily got snug between my legs wrapping them softly around his hips it seems odd to day but I barely felt him push inside he was so slow and gentle and the moment he got one little inch the rest just sort of slipped on in until he was hilt deep inside me, he waited a moment softly stroking my hips and stomach "fuckâŠ. Uummmm kitty. Y/n christ you feel so fucking good" he moans pulling almost completely out and then diving hilt deep again I tightened my grip on him a little and he got faster barely stopping now between thrusts, I gently moaned everytime he pushed in as he seemed to rub so nicely on my inside every time so much I could feel his close it was making me his movements only winding me up more, his moans didn't stop either lost in his own little world. "ThomasâŠ" "Yeah y/n?" "Faster" "Yeah? Faster? No problem kitten." He smirked getting much faster being a little mercilous on me kissing down my neck but I think part of what was to stop his moans I knew how close I was dancing at the edge of pleasure feeling it bubble every time he barely moved I tightened my legs around him often scratching his back a little between our kisses and moans I could hear his harsh breaths and the sound of the bed hitting the wall oven and over the slight squeak of bedsprings under us until I hit it grabbing him hard and trying not to scream but I'm not sure I did to well "Uuuuhhh! Uuhh ahhhhh!" I squealed feeling the waves of pleasure overwhelm me Only a few more and I felt him suddenly stop deep inside me "uughhh! Uuuuhhhhh!" He groaned rather loudly his eyes rolling back a moment before he pulled out and collapsed down next to me on the bed both of us getting our breath back after all that a little sweaty and overwhelmed "did I do okay?" "Spectacular" I giggled patting his stomach as my arm was all I was able to really move and it's the first place I reached on him "how did I do?" 'brilliantly y/n." He smiled holding my hand "ow.

"Could I have a glass of water?" "Of course.

I asked "Because I wanna be in here with you" he says "do you want me to go out with it?" "No it's okay" I smiled "You look cute in my bed" he says lighting his ciggertte up "I've been in your bed before?" "Yeah. Just⊠you look cute." "Perhaps it's a post orgasum glow" I giggled putting my water back "Might be" he chuckled "you did actually⊠right?" "Why?" He just shurgs "I like checking.

Unexpected Circumstances (Just Friends Part 7) - Cillian Murphy Imagine
Featuring: Cillian Murphy x Reader
Warning: SMUT
Words: 5789
Notes: I have decided to include one of the requests I received in this series as I didnât know how to best write it as a standalone at this point. I think it makes sense as part of this series as trust between Cillian and the Reader has been clearly established. I might still write a stand-alone piece as well incorporating the same request as this is the sort of Smut I like. So, stay tuned for that!
------
The Letter
It has been five weeks now since Cillian and you admitted your feelings for each other and things were going great.
Some days you couldnât believe how lucky you were to have found a man like him, someone who cared not only for you but also your son Max.
Cillian adored Max and Max enjoyed Cillianâs and Cillianâs childrenâs company.
Cillian would often pick Max up from preschool when you had to work late and prepare dinner for you and Max. Max thought that this was fantastic since you were a terrible cook.
But, despite this, it was sometimes difficult to arrange dates when you both had children to look after. You both tried to work around this issue as best as you could but, realistically, you only managed to have three sleepovers per week, mostly when Cillian didnât have his boys. This was when he came over to stay at your house and you always hated when he had to leave.
After all, you were madly in love, a feeling which was unfamiliar to you. You wanted to be around him all the time and whenever you werenât together you missed him.
As expected, you received some backlash from strangers due to your age gap but you tended to ignore the frustrating comments. They didnât know you and they didnât know your relationship.
The comments you received from your friends were nothing but supportive and even your grandmother thought that Cillian was good for you, much unlike your previous partners.
You still havenât told your parents about your relationship, but your sister was aware. She followed Twitter quite eagerly and loved Cillianâs TV Show hence the reason you told her.
Your sister was concerned that your father wouldnât approve of your relationship due to the large age gap, but that wasnât a problem you were ready to face yet and little did you know that you were about to have bigger problems than that coming your way.
Bad news was about to hit you like a freight train. It was 10am on Friday morning. You were working from home while Max was at preschool as the doorbell rang.
It was unusual for the postman to drop off letters personally. Usually that meant that you had to sign for your letters, which was never a good sign.
You thought that it must be a vehicle recall, or notice of some sort. But it was worse. It was a letter from your real estate agent advising you that you will be required to vacate the premises within 30 days.
You could not believe it. It was difficult enough for you to find this townhouse as a single mother in an area where the schools were decent enough. You were always on time with your rent and never missed a single payment. You had no idea why you had to move out.
You called the real estate agent immediately and were advised that the owner is returning from America and requires the premises at the end of the lease term. There was nothing you could do.
The real estate agent advised you that there were no suitable rentals in the area within your price range but that they were willing to give you a good reference should you find something else with a different agent.
You were devastated. The last thing you wanted is to take Max out of preschool just after he made some friends. Furthermore, Cillianâs youngest son was attending the same preschool and it was a perfect arrangement for the both of you.
As you went on with the day, you put your non urgent work aside in order to search for rentals online as, all of a sudden, the doorbell rang.
âOh Cillian⊠I totally forgotâ you said as you opened the door.
âYou forgot our date?â Cillian chuckled as he walked in the door, giving you a quick kiss.
âI must be the worst girlfriendâ you said with some embarrassment. You never forgot a date with your boyfriend before. After all, it was what you looked forward to the most.
âRelax, itâs fine Y/Nâ Cillian said before noticing that your face was slightly flushed and your eyes were red.
âAre you alright though? You look like youâve been cryingâ Cillian said as he ran his hands over both of your arms. He knew that something was wrong.
âYes, I just had a very stressful and shit morning. I am alright now thoughâ you said as you walked into the bedroom to get changed, ready to go out for lunch.
âDo you want to talk about it?â Cillian asked from the hallway.
You took the letter which you received from the real estate agent from the sideboard in the hallway and handed it to him.
âIâve just been searching for a new rental but they are either too expensive or out of the area. But, I have found one in North Dublin and the schools there have halfway decent reviews soâŠâ you explained and, before you could finish your sentence, Cillian interrupted you.
âThe schools here are much better Y/N. I donât think you should change Max mid-term; it will put him behindâ Cillian said.
âDonât you think I know this?â you asked frustrated. You were still quite upset about having to move.
âI will lose the enrolment as soon as I move out of area. Despite, I cannot drive backwards and forwards with work. I barely make pickup time now with the hours I am at the officeâ you added just as tears began to build up in your eyes again.
âCommon, sit downâ Cillian said as he sat down on the bed next to you and wrapping his arms around you.
âI might have a solutionâ he said as he wiped your tears away.
âGo on thenâ you said, still sobbing.
âYou and Max could move in with me. That way, we could spend more time together and Max wonât have to change preschool and can start year one with Charlieâ Cillian suggested.
âMove in with you? Cillian, donât you think itâs a bit too early for that? We have only been together for 5 weeksâ you said.
âYes, but weâve known each other for a few months now. Seems like a perfectly reasonable timeframeâ Cillian chuckled, making you laugh. You knew that he was being sarcastic. He always had a good sense of humour.
âComing from the man who just a couple of months ago didnât want to settle downâ you smiled.
âWell, that was before I got myself such a beautiful girlfriendâ Cillian said before giving you a passionate kiss. He could taste the saltiness from your tears but it didnât seem to bother him.
âYou are crazy, you know thatâ you chuckled after your lips drifted apart.
âWell, you do that to meâ Cillian said while cupping your face with both of his hands.
âWe would, however, need to work on your cooking skillsâ he added jokingly, earning him a nudge.
âVery funnyâ you said with a laugh.
âSeriously though, what do you think?â Cillian asked.
âI think Max would really love this idea and I would love nothing more than sharing a bed with you every night. I am just worried that you will get sick of me after a whileâ you said.
âI donât think I could ever get sick of you Y/N. Just your cookingâ Cillian chuckled before telling you that he loved you.
âI love you too Cillyâ you said before kissing him passionately.
âIs that a yes?â he asked.
âItâs a yes, thank youâ you said before pushing him back onto the bed.
âThe lunch reservation is at 1pm Y/Nâ Cillian said as you hoovered over him.
âForget about lunchâ you responded just as you threw your t-shirt to the floor.
However, just as you were getting down to business, your phone rang, not once, but twice.
It was Maxâs preschool and you knew that it was urgent.
You quickly returned the call and were told that you must pick up Max as he had a fall on the playground.
You got dressed quickly and drove to preschool to pick up Max. You were advised to go to hospital to see whether Maxâs arm was broken.
Being cautious, you followed the teacherâs advice and took Max for an x-ray at hospital. Luckily, it was just a sprain which should resolve with some rest. Unfortunately, by the time you got to leave the hospital it was 6pm. You were there for hours.
Cillian suggested that you and Max come over to his place for dinner. You gladly accepted the offer and this allowed you both to talk to your kids about moving in together.
As you told them, they were beyond excited and Max was quick to arrange a sleepover for the following night.
You and Cillian agreed but, for a change, arranged a babysitter to look after your three boys allowing you to go for dinner and to the movies with your friends which was something you didnât do very often.
Movie Night
The next evening, Cillianâs sister came over to watch the kids. This was the first time you met someone from Cillianâs family and she was quite excited to get to know you.
Apparently, Cillian had told her and his parents about you already.
After you chatted with her for half an hour, you both made your way to the restaurant.
Unfortunately for you, your friends had invited Jeremy, unaware of the fact that he continued to message you daily much to Cillianâs frustration.
Regardless of this, both you and Cillian were polite as you sat down across from Jeremy and your friends.
âWhat did you guys do with the kids tonight?â your friend Amy asked.
âMy sister is looking after them at my houseâ Cillian responded.
âWhat about Max?â she asked.
âMax is at Cillianâs house as wellâ you said, which is when your friend Amy slipped the news. You had already told her that you would be moving in with Cillian just before he starts filming again.
âOh well, better to get used to it. Living with 4 boys soon Y/N eh? That shall be interestingâ she said.
Her comment quickly raised a lot of questions, in particular from Jeremy.
âYou really are becoming a sugar baby Y/N arenât you?â he said sarcastically, causing Cillian to laugh. He tried very hard to take Jeremy seriously, but it was difficult.
âA sugar baby? Is that even a word?â Cillian asked.
âYou know what I meanâ Jeremy said.
âNo, please enlighten meâ Cillian responded.
âAlrightâ Cillian chuckled.
âItâs none of my business Cillian, but why is that you actors have to get involved with women who are so much younger than you?â Jeremy said.
âYou are right, itâs none of your business Jeremyâ you said harshly while Cillian tried hard to bite his tongue.
Your friends quickly changed the conversation after that but you couldnât keep your hands of your boyfriend that evening simply to annoy Jeremy and Cillian played along.
âI am sorry heâs been a toolâ you whispered into Cillianâs ear as you walked to the movies with your friends.
âI find it very difficult to remain polite around himâ Cillian said.
âI knowâ you responded just as the theatre opened.
You took your seats and, to your frustration, Jeremy sat down right next to you, causing Cillian to get annoyed. Â
After what Jeremy had said to you and Cillian, you refused to speak to him and largely ignored him until the movie started.
About twenty minutes into the movie, you started to get rather bored. You couldnât believe that you had to be there for another two hours. Who decided to choose a two- and half-hour movie in French, with subtitles? Of course, you did, without doing any research.
You looked over to Cillian and noticed that he was disinterested in the movie as well and stopped reading the subtitles. It was evident, he was somewhere in dreamland, probably thinking about how he could annoy Jeremy after his most recent insult.
Noticing your boyfriendâs disinterest in the movie, you reached for his hand, running your hand over the top of his gently. You had his attention now and he gave you a warm smile for all you could tell in the dark theatre.
Taking his hand into yours, you guided it on top of your thighs which is where it sat for a while. Not getting the hint, you arched back into your seat and guided his hand further up beneath your loose cotton skirt.
Whilst you couldnât see much, you noticed Cillian turn his head towards you. Just as he did, you guided his hand further up your thigh while biting your lip. You tried hard for your eyes not to leave the movie screen.
He finally got the hint and squeezed your thigh gently before handing you your cardigan from your bag.
You placed the cardigan across your lap just as Cillian lifted up your skirt slightly beneath it, giving him better access.
You glanced to your right to ensure that Jeremy, who was sitting next to you, didnât see what Cillian was doing.
Luckily for you, he was intensely focused on the movie although, no doubt, your boyfriend would have preferred if Jeremy knew what you were doing. After all, Jeremy had just insulted him and it wasnât long before Cillian and you got together, that Jeremy had told him that he would like to get into your panties.
Just as Cillianâs fingers wandered up your upper inner thigh, you released a sigh and parted your legs slightly while making sure that your cardigan provided enough cover.
By the time Cillianâs fingers reached the apex of your thighs and touched your panties, they were already damp.
You were grateful that the theatre was so dark because your skirt was up to the top of your thighs and draped over Cillianâs hand which would otherwise have been clearly noticeable beneath the thin cardigan.
You were panting with desire, just from Cillian stroking and squeezing your thighs and running his hand over your wet panties.
You slid down a bit in your chair and spread your thighs even more. The adrenaline rush had your inhibitions going out the window.
You could hear a slight chuckle from Cillian as he noticed you pushing your body down against his hand.
Just in that moment, you felt his fingers sliding your panties to the side.
Within seconds, he dipped a finger inside your wet entrance, gathering some of your natural lubrication, then moved it upwards toward your clit.
You sucked in a breath through your teeth, hissing quietly. By that time, you both had completely stopped paying attention to the movie.
Cillian started in a slow rhythm, circling your clit a few times, then dipping down shallowly into your entrance, repeating it over and over.
Your fingers were digging into his forearm on one side and onto the armrest on the other.
Your hips were moving of their own accord as you were whimpering quietly as Cillianâs fingers moved in and out of you.
Suddenly, it hit. You groaned quietly, gripping boyfriendâs hand, pushing his finger into you even deeper and grinding your clit against the palm of his hand.
Your walls clenched around his fingers as your orgasm washed over you and you couldnât help it but let out a shallow moan.
âAre you alright Y/N?â Jeremy asked, noticing the sound you made while looking at you with some confusion.
âYes, I am fineâ you said bluntly and with a deep breath while Cillian pulled his fingers out of you with a grin on his face.
You handed Jeremy your popcorn before rearranging your skirt and handing Cillian your cardigan. At this point, he needed it more than you as his erection pushed against the zipper of his jeans.
âFollow meâ you whispered into Cillianâs ear before standing up and excusing yourself, walking past Jeremy.
âWhere are you going?â Jeremy asked.
âBathroomâ you responded. You were still annoyed with him and he wouldnât get anything from you but stern and short answers. Â
Cillian waited another minute or two before following you so that he wouldnât raise any suspicion.
You waited for him in the front of the cinema with a big smile on your face.
âYou choose the worst moviesâ Cillian said with a cheeky smile.
âI have been enjoying it so farâ you smirked before taking his hand and pulling him towards the parentsâ room.
âY/N, I donât think this is a good ideaâ Cillian said as you locked the door behind you.
âRelax, itâs 10pm. No one will need this room until tomorrow. We will be safe. Despite, I know you, this wonât go down any time soon unless we get to itâ you smirked as you placed your hands on Cillianâs crotch before crashing your lips onto his with haste.
Without wasting any time, you unbuttoned his jeans and pushed down his zipper before running your hand inside his briefs and stroking his hard cock.
âYouâve got ten minutesâ you said after breaking the kiss and before turning around, leaning forward over the wash basin.
Within seconds, Cillian lifted up your skirt and pushed down your panties before lining himself up with your wet entrance.
You smiled at him in the mirror as he gently pushed your legs apart and grasped the perky butt cheeks before him.
Cillian pried them apart and stepped forward. He was flush against you and you couldnât help it but release a soft moan.
His cock slipped between your legs, and the head glided across your sensitive lips.
âFuck I want you so muchâ you moaned as you pushed back against him in anticipation.
Without words, Cillian pulled back a little and then pushed up into your tight tunnel.
âFuckâ you moaned loudly as your walls stretched to fit his length inside you.
âYou got to be quietâ Cillian whispered from behind you as he began to thrust in and out of you.
He gave you barely a moment to brace yourself before he gripped your hips and pulled back. His cock slipped out almost the whole way before he thrust his hips forward and dived back into your heat.
Cillian set a hard pace, knowing that you didnât have much time together before someone would get suspicious.
You could hear his laboured breathing behind you as you held onto the basin tightly.
âGod yesâ you moaned quietly as the tip of his cock hit your cervix over and over again.
Cillian smiled at your reaction and reached down to grab your thighs. He spread your legs even wider. By that time, you were on your toes, with no leverage of your own.
âDonât stopâ you whispered as you could feel another orgasm build up in your stomach and, within seconds, your walls constricted around him.
You cried out a little too loudly, and your whole body shook as your orgasm slammed into you.
Cillian kept his brutal thrusts up as you rode out the waves of pleasure. Your legs trembled before him and he smiled as you whimpered with every thrust.
The contractions around his cock and your moans sent Cillian over the edge also and, shortly after you came down from your high, he reached his and filled you with his warm cum.
âFuck Y/Nâ he moaned quietly as he slowly began to relax, his face resting on the back of your shoulders, kissing them gently.
After he came down completely, he pulled out of you and you could feel the mixture of his cum and yours drip down your thighs.
Cillian handed you a paper towel but you declined the offer and simply pulled up your panties.
âI like to remember this for the rest of the nightâ you grinned before giving him another passionate kiss.
Your comment earned you a chuckle but, deep down inside, Cillian liked the thought of knowing that your panties will be wet from his cum for the remainder of the night.
After making sure that no one was around, you left the room together and made your way back to the theatre together.
âYouâve been gone for a while. Is everything alright?â Jeremy asked as you sat back down next to him.
âYeah, I had to make a phone callâ you said just as Cillian sat back down next to you.
You both had a cheeky grin on your face as you watched the rest of the movie.
âThe movie was great, wasnât it?â your friend Alice asked as you left the theatre and Jeremy agreed simply because he knew that you chose it.
âWhat did you think about the twist towards the end Cilly?â she then asked.
âYeah, uhmâŠyeah it was alrightâ Cillian said, not knowing what she was talking about.
âThere was a twist?â you whispered to Cillian as you walked outside the theatre.
âI think we missed the majority of the plot babeâ Cillian whispered back before taking your hand into his and following the others to the pub.
Jeremy kept starring at you and Cillian and you could notice the frustration on his face. You enjoyed it, a lot.
Later at the pub, Cillian received the usual attention from some young females. It always made you chuckle but it really annoyed Jeremy.
Despite the fact that Cillian enjoyed Jeremy getting annoyed, it soon became too much for him and, after about three drinks, you both decided to leave.
Getting Down to Business
You called a taxi and drove back to Cillianâs house.
âItâs unbelievableâ you giggled sheepishly and slightly tipsy from the three gin and tonics you had earlier.
âWhat is?â Cillian asked, closing the door behind you.
âAll the attention you get from all of these young women every time we go outâ you said.
âWhat can I say, itâs Tommy Shelby Effectâ Cillian laughed.
âHmm I think I get itâ you said and, just after this comment, you kissed him passionately just as his sister walked out of the living room.
âAlright, I am goingâ his sister chuckled.
You both thanked her for looking after the children and made your way to the shower. You both smelled like beer and popcorn.
Just as you got into the large shower together and were talking about the evening, Cillian couldnât help it but complain about Jeremy.
âYou know, I am yours Cillian!â you said as you ran your hands over his chest.
âYou are mine, are you?â he chuckled in response to your comment which reminded him on his script for Season 5 of Peaky Blinders.
âYesâŠâ you whispered into his ear just before biting his earlobe gently while the hot water ran down in between you.
Cillianâs hands soon moved from your back down to your naked butt cheeks while his lips kissed the bare skin on your neck.
âI love you Y/Nâ he said in between kisses.
âI love you too Cillian and I want you to fuck me as if you own meâ you whispered. âTake me the way you want toâ you added seductively.
âYouâve been watching too much of this TV showâ Cillian said with a chuckle, referring to a new TV documentary series that you were watching on Netflix about BDSM.
âItâs intriguing though, isnât it?â you asked running your hands over Cillianâs chest and down in between his legs. He grew hard almost instantly as you touched him.
Your face was inches away from his and you could see pure hunger and lust aflame in his eyes as you were stroking him gently. His warm breath fanned over your face like an aphrodisiac and the want in his eyes was intoxicating.
He remembered the last episode of the documentary quite well and grabbed your hair at the back of your head gently, causing the hot water to run down your breasts.
You bit your lip with excitement, fire building up in your eyes.
âYou really want to try this donât you?â Cillian asked, causing you to nod.
âAlrightâ he sighed with a smile and, with his free arm, he pushed you onto your knees almost instantly.
Thatâs it, exactly what you wanted.
He pulled on your hair, making you look up at him while you were biting your lips.
You suddenly felt a wretch in your stomach. Cillian wasnât normally that forceful with you and you knew that, for him, it was a roleplay more than anything. Being with an actor clearly had its perks.
âIs this what you want?â he asked, causing you to nod again.
With his hand still firmly in your hair, he guided your mouth towards his hard cock.
You open your mouth willingly and, within one thrust, the head of his hard cock hits the back of your throat, making you gag.
You didnât even try to pull away and he slowly and deeply began to thrust in and out of your mouth, giving your barely enough time to breath.
You gave into his rhythm as the warm water was running over your back.
âGod, your mouth feels amazingâ Cillian moaned, knowing that you enjoy it when he is talking to you while were intimate. You loved the sound of his voice.
Just as you got used to the sensation of being forced up and down his cock, he began to tweak one of your erect nipples with his free hand, causing you to moan around him.
âGood girl, keep goingâ Cillian said with a slight smirk as he toys with your nipple, pulling and rolling it between his fingers.
The pit of your stomach was set aflame and your thighs were slick with your juices.
With his cock in your mouth and your nipples being aroused, you are under sensory overload.
As he continued to thrust in and out of your mouth, you closed your eyes trying to concentrate on the raw pleasure that was radiating from your body in waves.
âLook at meâ he demanded, causing you to open your eyes again and dig your hands into his thighs as he kept going.
âThatâs itâ he moaned, thrusting into your mouth a few more times before pulling you away from his throbbing cock and your mouth comes off with a satisfying pop.
Some small tears were running down your cheeks, your mouth sore from opening so widely and your hair was still in his hands. He roughly wiped away the saliva around your mouth and wrapped his hand around your throat gently.
You looked up into his blue eyes and wanted nothing more than for him to take you, fuck you hard.
âCommon, letâs take this to the bedroomâ he said as he began to notice the water getting cold.
âYes sirâ you winked, earning him a chuckle.
âYou defiantly are serious, arenât you?â Cillian said as you dried each other off. He was slightly out of his comfort zone but decided to play along as he could see the desire in your eyes. You were by far the most adventurous and kinky woman heâs ever been with.
Moments later, you made your way to Cillianâs bedroom.
âI donât think soâ Cillian said firmly as you reached the edge of the bed.
With his hand on your throat gently again and the other on your waist, he guided you towards the large reading desk in the bedroom.
âTurn aroundâ he instructed and, as soon as you complied, he pushed you down onto the table.
Just as you your face leaned against the cold wood, he took both of your arms and secured both your hands behind your back.
Electricity shot down your spine as you tried to struggle out of his grasp teasingly.
You were completely under his control just as you wanted.
He put your two wrists wrapped around one hand and with the other, slowly traced a finger up your inner thigh.
You bit your bottom lip to keep yourself from moaning too loudly.
Cillian took his time, exploring every inch of your thighs and ass.
âSo sexyâ Cillian said as his fingers brushed against your wet folds, causing you to whimper.
He continued to run his fingers up and down your pussy, teasing to put his fingers in.
You whined and struggled against his grasp, your wetness started trailing down your thighs.
âOh god yesâ you moaned as Cillian slowly eased his fingers inside, scissoring his fingers as he went.
âShhâ Cillian said, knowing that you had to remain quiet with the boys in the next room.
Your mind went blank as pleasure shot through your nerves, spreading like wildfire.
Cillianâs fingers swirled around inside of you languidly, leaving no space unexplored and, moments later, he brushed against your g-spot causing you to jerk.
âStay stillâ he said as he pressed his body down, immobilizing yours.
He knew very well that you liked to squirm when he reached your sweet spot as the intensity was too overpowering.
This time, you wouldnât get away, no matter how hard you try.
âOh god Cillian, pleaseâ you yelped, the feeling of his fingers on your g-spot being too much for you to handle.
But Cillian wouldnât let you squirm away and you soon learned that you had to just give in, surrender to him.
But, just as you relaxed and could feel your orgasm approach, he pulled his fingers out of you.
âDid I say you could come?â he teased as he placed his fingers into your mouth, making you taste your wet juices.
âNo sorryâ you said, hoping that he would put his fingers back inside of you.
âSorry what?â Cillian asked sheepishly.
âSorry Sirâ you grinned just before you ran your tongue along the length of his fingers.
âGood girlâ he whispered just as he trailed his fingers back down towards your wet entrance.
Within seconds, they entered you again and continued where they left off.
You tried hard not to come right away and, after several more minutes, you couldnât control it any longer.
âCillian please, can I come?â you moaned, your walls already beginning to contract around his fingers.
âNo Y/N, you cannotâ he said, withdrawing his fingers once again, pulling your head back on your hair and kissing you passionately.
Just as he pushed you back down, you could feel him line himself up with your entrance.
Your hands were still pinned behind your back as he pressed the tip of his cock into you slowly. Your walls clench instinctively.
âDonât you dare come until Iâve given you permissionâ he murmured into your ear as he pushes into you torturously slow.
âI promise I wonât come without permissionâ you said as you could feel Cillianâs body against yours and his hands gripping over your hands pinned behind your back and your hair.
âGood girlâ he whispered as he continued to push inside you slowly until he was completely inside.
You tried to wriggle so you could adjust to his size, but Cillian held you in place. He slowly moved out until only the tip remained inside and thrusts back in deeply.
You moaned loudly into the table as he continued his rhythm, fucking you slowly but deeply. Your mind blanks, pleasure rocking through your body.
You could feel him tighten his grip over your hands as he slowly pulls out and slams into you, eliciting a yelp.
âYes, oh god, yesâ you moaned loudly as he began to pick up the pace, knocking you almost breathless.
Your moans caused Cillian to place one of his hands over your mouth gently. You were way too loud.
You felt like a wound-up toy, yearning to be released from the tension. With every thrust, you come closer to your orgasm. He's hitting you fast and deeply, but not enough to send your over the edge. You whine and whimper, weakly struggling against his body. You are so close, teetering on a cliff.
âPleaseâ you moaned into his, desperate for your release.
âPlease what?â Cillian asked as he thrusts in and out of you and removing his hand for just one moment to allow you to speak.
âPlease let me comeâ you responded.
âYou will need to do better than thatâ Cillian said as he thrusts into you even deeper.
âI do anything, pleaseâ you moaned, your walls beginning to clench around him.
âAnything? Hmm, alright, that seems like a fair dealâ Cillian said picking up the speed.
With those words, you let go. Pleasure rocked through your body like a wave.
You tried to fight the feeling of falling and flying at the same time as your orgasm washed over you.
Cillian moaned at the same time as he felt your tight walls close around his cock and, with three more thrusts, he came inside of you.
You could feel his cock throb inside of you as your legs shake from the powerful orgasm.
Just as you both came down from your high, he slowly pulled out of you, causing some of his cum to leak out.
He released your hands and helped you up from the desk.
You turned around to face him and, with one of your hands, you reached in between your legs collecting some of his cum before licking it from your fingers suggestively.
âI enjoyed thisâ you smirked, causing Cillian to stare at you in disbelieve.
âYou are naughty, arenât you?â he chuckled just before giving you a kiss.
âYes I amâ you smirked before you both made your way to the bed.
By that time you were exhausted.
You curled up in each otherâs arms and shared some gentle moments together.
âI am looking forward to sleeping in this bed with you every nightâ you said.
âSo do Iâ Cillian responded, before turning off the light.
Morning After
The next morning, you got woken up by the smell of pancakes and three missed calls.
Your father had tried to call you to congratulate Max on his recent soccer medal.
You returned the call and handed the phone to Max while you joined Cillian in the kitchen for a coffee. Just as you were drinking your coffee, you listened to Max speak to his grandfather on speaker.
âSo how have you been Max?â grandpa asked.
âGood poppy, we are having pancakesâ Max said.
âMum made pancakes? Do they taste any good?â grandpa laughed.
âNo Cillian made pancakes. Mum and I are moving to his house soon and then we can have pancakes every weekendâ Max said.
âCillian? Who is Cillian?â grandpa asked.
âMumâs boyfriendâ Max responded, causing you to choke on your coffee.
âCan you please put your mother on the phoneâ he said.
To be continuedâŠ..
