So I have chronic nosebleed problemā¦
(spoiling bc itās really gross to even talk about and most people donāt like talking about blood) (no pictures or anything like that though just text) (only typing this because it was a weird fucking experience and I need to tell someone or Iām going to go insane) (ā ļøā¼ļøI warned youā¼ļøā ļø)
And today I got the worst nosebleed probably in my entire life since I started getting them like 14 years ago. The blood was dripping really fucking fast to the point that there was almost no space in between each drop. Iām not on blood thinners or anything but for a bit there I was worried that it might never end. After a few minutes of this, letting it drip into the sink, morbid curiosity got the best of me. I plugged the bottom of the sink and let the blood pile up at the bottom without running water or anything, I wanted to get a visual for just how much blood I was losing.
My nose kept bleeding for over an hour, and it only started slowing down in the last 20 minutes or so. The entire bottom of the sink was a pool of blood deep enough that I could submerge my hand in it (my hands already had blood on em and I was going to clean everything and then wash em anyway, so I had to at least see how deep it was. Yes that is a weird and gross thing to do, but I was bored after sitting there letting my nose drip into a sink for over an hour, donāt judge me).
(Even more disgusting text below warning)ā¼ļø
And because blood isnāt really just a liquid it was a really weird texture, kind of like pudding that congeals and has that mass on the top when it cools, it was like a semisolid mass submerged in water. I could grab the mass and squish it through my fingers. It was so fucking weird idk if Iāve ever seen a liquid or semi-liquid with textures and properties like that. It was kind of cool, in a weird nasty way. I realized thatās probably not a thing most people get to or have to experience. The blood was kind of cold at that point, nearing room temperature.
It was really interesting getting to see just how much blood I lost from a nosebleed that bad. Normally Iām constantly trying to plug the bleeding, clean the sink, or fill the sink with a pool of water to drip into so it doesnāt make as much of a mess, or am in the shower, so even if I spend an hour bleeding into a sink I have no clue how much Iāve actually lost. Iāve heard people say that if you feel dizzy or weak after a nosebleed (or when they draw a small vial of blood for a blood test) that itās mostly placebo making you feel that way, not the small loss of blood. But that was soooo much more than a vial for a blood test. I feel physically weak and woozy. Iām really dehydrated too. Itās neat to know itās not just a placebo I was right all along.
#gross text. probably donāt read it#Iām posting this more for me than for anyone to see it#cw blood#tw blood

My housemate and I at University had one of the David Tennant as the 10th Doctor (hers) and John Simm as the Master (mine) and we used to move them around the house to jumpscare the rest of our housemates.
When I first moved in, she had already been there about a week and had left Ten standing in her doorway. My mum nearly jumped out of her skin every single time she went upstairs!
When Simm!Master arrived, he just turned up in the post one day with no note of explanation or anything (my parents thought it would amuse us). We thought it would be funny to put the two of them together in the lounge area. We didn't realise one of our other housemates was going to be back late and didn't think to warn her. I think she nearly had a great attack when she got back in the early hours of the morning in the dark to find the silhouettes of two people just standing there in the lounge.
my friend got me a cutout of jodie whittaker as the thirteenth doctor for last birthmas
and she lives behind the tv in the back room
so every so often i have to navigate my house in the dark and i get fucking jumpscared by jodie
#Doctor Who#story time with Alice#thought this would amuse some of you#this was probably about 14 years ago by the way#we had some good times#i lived in a house of whovians

what WAS the normal child response to learning abt climate change actually. bc Iām pretty sure ādepressed for at least 6 months and becoming deeply fascinated by apocalypses for ~3 yearsā was prooooobably not it but who am I to say
#did NOT realise how much this has shaped me actually#also am not exaggerating when I say depressed I. cannot remmeber a lot of it but my parents were Worried about me#anyway I joke abt how Iām a biologist now bc of pokemon and that is very true but this is probably a pretty big chunk too#itās just wild like that happened when I was 11 and I was DEEEEEP in the apocalypse trenches until I was at least 14#I think I wrote my first longish story when I was? 13? about waking up after some massive chunk of time to a world with no people left#that concept rlly held onto me for some reason. just all the people suddenly disappearing#Iām saying all this like Iām not still rlly into apocalypse stories but it is a mere shadow of its former self#anyway Iām so grateful for the conservation module I took this year bc learning abt the state of everything + the way out of it#scientifically instead of piecemeal from the news and the shit I could read abt. has been rlly good for my everything honestly#didnāt properly sink in until two months ago I donāt think that year this is kiiinda what I would like to do with my life#bc Iād always been resistant to the idea of doing conservation or climate science or anything bc historically thinking abt it for too long#has been BAD for me and I didnāt think I could do that forever while keeping most of me#but now Iām at a point where like. okay very likely Iām gonna be an actual scientist. and while pure science is cool and worthwhile#and I still have feelings abt how thereās no funding or anything for studies without immediate practical applications#(THEY NORMALLY COME LATER AND EVEN IF THEY DONT ITS WORTH KNOWING EVERYTHING WE CAN KNOW SHUT UUUUPPP)#i do wanna do smth thatās gonna make a difference bc like Iām kinda in a position where thatās possible here#anyway my masters is gonna be ecology and hopefully with a microclimate focus which is cool as hell and will hopefully keep stuff open a bit#and Iām gonna try do as much as I can next year. thereās some very cool stuff happening I might be able to join#anyway wow this took a turn#climate crisis! woo!!#luke.txt

ITS BEEN A MONTH SINCE TLLR CHAPTER 11????? WHAT
#wyrms says stuff#SORRY ITS TAKING FOREVER TO WRITE HOLY SHIT???#i thought it had been like 2 weeks or something#dude iām actually sorry itās taking so long to get chapters out#BUT like the next three chapters are all around 2/3 of the way done#i miss those phases where writing becomes sooooo so so easy for me and i write like 3k words a day#iāve never been able to like stick with a writing schedule#my energy for writing comes and goes as it pleases and itās been like that all my life. drawing comes naturally#it never bothered me before that iād just not write for a few months at a time and then suddenly get motivation#to write a shit ton of stuff at once in rapid succession#and it sucks because forcing myself to sit down and write is hard it just doesnāt come super naturally like drawing does.#like forcing myself to draw can be a lot of fun and itās easy. but honestly i donāt chose when my brain tells me itās writing time#but thatās probably not a good thing huh#and also iām like?? SUPER SUPER excited about some of the chapters coming up?? like chapter 14 is THE chapter iāve been most excited about#since i started this series. AND ITS BASICALLY ALREADY WRITTEN TOO#the parts in between are hard to figure out iāve realized#and also hard to give myself motivation to write them. im basically just annoyed that writing doesnāt come as naturally as art does for me#and that ever since i started actually writing about my own ocs like 6 years ago#iāve only been able to write in short bursts of a few months at a time#itās annoying but itās a good challenge for me to overcome. i just have to sit down and write and then iāll get that motivation back#the next chapter should be done very very soon!!!

my best friend has been very distant w me lately and i asked today if she wanted to hang out and she said she probably couldn't bc it's her brothers birthday but she would let me know if she could and i have her location and i just looked and she's at her boyfriends house rn....
#we have it bc we're roomates so we started sharing locations when we first moved in like in case someone doesn't come home at night or smth#she recently told me that she wants to move out bc she has always wanted to live alone and she can finally afford it. and i asked her#directly like is there an issue because she is so non confrontational so she has never ever mentioned me doing anything that bothers her#and i said please tell me if there's something wrong because it would really suck if there was and i never got a chance to fix it because#you never told me. and she said no it has nothing to do with that i really just feel like it's time for me to live on my own. and a couple#days ago she was like okay i'm next in line for my apartment i'll probably move out in april. and i try to get her to hang out still and#she always has something else going on and i swear every night this week she's been at her boyfriends.#and if i see her around our apartment and try to make conversation at all she's so like short about it and barely responds like will only#give one word answers. i feel like it kind of started when i started dating e but i realized that i was spending less time with her and i#didn't want to be the girl that loses all my friends bc of a boyfriend so i started specifically reaching out to hang out with her and she#says no most of the time and never asks me. like i don't know what else i can do.#i'm like maybe it's bc of her boyfriend? bc they've been on again off again for a long time and previously when they were together it was#really distant with her like i barely saw her EVER. and they were mostly broken up for the past couple years and have been together i think#for a while again... but she knows i don't approve of that relationship and so she would like not say when they were talking again. so maybe#since lately they've been hanging out or dating or WHATEVER she doesn't fucking tell me what's going on with him. maybe that's why.#i literally like try to think of ways it could be my fault and maybe i'm being crazy but i cannot even think to blame myself for more than a#fleeting second bc i'm like. i have ASKED HER directly if there is an issue or something i do that bothers her and she says no. so even if#i'm somehow pissing her off would i ever know to change anything?? i just feel so frustrated bc it's like she's an entirely different person#to me. like this is not the person i know. and i don't know what else i could possibly do like i feel like we need to sit down and have a#conversation about it but what good does that do if she just acts like nothing is wrong. but i don't want to lose my friend i have such a#hard time making friends. i've known her since i was 14 like i can't imagine my life without her. we were the only two in our whole friend#group in high school to get out of the church i still love those other girls but we have so little in common now.

On being an older fangirl
I was probably 10 years old when I first conceived of what was, looking back, fanfiction. Me and my best friend would lie in bed together on sleepovers and I'd make up stories about what happened after the end of our favorite book, "The Westing Game." She'd ask me for more stories, and I'd tell her more, inventing them as I went along. "Then what?" she'd say.
I was 14 when I went to my first convention. I had discovered Star Trek: The Next Generation. It was 1987, and my youth pastor was a huge Trekkie. He took me to a one-day crappy Creation con, but it was amazing to me. I met Nichelle Nichols. My dad showed me the Trek movies. He and I watched TNG together.
When I went to college in 1991, my dad used to videotape TNG episodes onto VHS tapes and mail them to me, so I could keep watching (I didn't have TV in my dorm room).
By the time I was a senior, we had Trek watching parties in the dorm lounge, where the TV had cable. Star Trek: Voyager had started up, and I wrote a column about it for the college newspaper. I joined a mailing list about it, with people in it that I still know today.
I got my first computer that could go online in 1995. I was on newsgroups. I discovered Doctor Who. I went to Trek conventions where we still passed around fanzines containing fic and art and smutty K/S fan creations.
Then it was Harry Potter. Then there were websites. Then there was Geocities, where we could all make our own little spots. We organized them into webrings. We talked on newsgroups and mailing lists. There were fanfic archives. Then there was fanfiction.net.
Then...there was LiveJournal. And we could interact in entirely new ways. We could form communities, and debate things, and fight over canon, and get into ship wars. On LiveJournal, I met my best friend of 22 years. I was in her wedding. She's my sister of the heart (which is what she calls me).
Then there was Tumblr. And Twitter. And now there's Discord. But it's all the same.
I am the same.
I am still that little girl who made up fanfiction in her head to entertain her best friend. I am still the one who was amazed to find communities on the internet - which was so new, so raw, so uncommodified - where others like me could meet. I found there people to meet in real life.
I am still that twentysomething going to her first major convention, being told that someone loved my fic, being asked about my writing process.
I am still that thirtysomething watching something I wrote blow up. Seeing friends from other fandoms find me in new ones, finding them there, too. Forgetting which fandom I know someone from, because I've known them for twenty years.
I still know some of the people who created those early websites, those mailing lists, those archives. I still meet people in new fandoms who say "Oh, I read your fic in [fandom] fifteen years ago!" There's no feeling quite like having someone remember something you wrote for that long. Or meeting someone whose fic meant a lot to YOU, or who you talked with on rec.arts.drwho.creative in 1997.
Aging in fandom is a gift. Being middle-aged in fandom is a joy. Having people who still read what I write and ask "Then what?" is a blessing.
It breaks my heart that so many people see it as something to be ashamed of, when it is one of my life's greatest gifts.

love crushed - cloud x reader
summary: cloud can't sleep with you on his mind, unable to accept his feelings. until eventually you both get caught unable to sleep. confessions occur, seggs happens perchance.
tw: seggs, quite rough seggs
He finally gave up. After hours of writhing in his hotel room, trying to convince himself over and over again, he knew he wasnāt winning. You had been circulating his mind, doing laps, your face crossing his vision every second. Continuously recalling your cut-up face today, panting, exhausted, the way his heart failed at the sight of you. You had no hesitation when it came to saving anyone, even at the expense of yourself.Ā
He groaned, dragging himself out of bed to get fresh air on the balcony. He dragged his hands down his face as he leaned against the railings, looking over Junon. He was being such a fucking girl about this, really. Just a simple crush and it was like he was 14 years old again, getting sweaty hands at the mere thought of you, and yet he still didn't want to accept it, what was right in front of him.
Cloud sighed deeply, resting his elbows against the railings and clasping his hands together. He couldnāt do this anymore. He couldn't be away from you. Even if you didnāt return his feelings, it wasn't going to stop him, no way in hell, he just needed you by his side, sitting in that bed he was already thinking about knocking on your door just to talk to you and see if you were still okay from that fight that happened hours ago.Ā
"I don't like her. I'm just not used to having new friends," he told himself, the wind ruffling his hair and his heart pounding at the thought of you, eventually shaking his head, that didn't feel right. He couldn't even deny it anymore. "...It's just a crush, I'll get over it."
The lie tasted bitter on his tongue.
Cloud was already heading to your room, his hand raised to knock on the door before he realised what he was doing. He cursed himself, dropping his arm back down to his side. This was fucking ridiculous, what was he doing? Cloud didn't even realise the way he was acting, but this was unlike him. Normally, he was cool and collected, always had been, but you, you turned his world upside down and he had no idea how to handle it.Ā
"Why am I doing this?" He thinks, softly leaning his head against the door. "She's probably sleeping, why are you disturbing her for this stupid shit?" He asked himself, turning around and walking down the hall towards the elevator. He pressed the button, waiting as he looked back at your door. And you stepped out, half asleep and still in your pajamas, it was so dark you didn't even see Cloud at the end of the hallway.Ā
You shuffled down the hallway. Your head was killing you, all those thoughts that had been swarming you for the past few hours, and now you had a headache. It was a horrible, horrible, night. You needed to go see Aerith to see if she had any healing spells, or Tifa to see if she had any medication, maybe you could go out and clear your head.
You bumped straight into Cloud's chest while you were rubbing your eyes.
"Y/n?"
"Cloud?"
"What are you doing up? Are you okay?"
"I could ask you the same thing. Not trying to sneak out on us are you?" You say, looking up at him, squinting. The hallway lights were bright and you couldn't see his expression properly.
"Just taking a walk."
"Oh my god, that's great. Can I join you?"
"Sure. Everything okay?"
"Yeah," you sigh, "I just couldn't sleep, I've got a lot of things on my mind."
"I know what that's like."
"You couldn't sleep either, huh?"
"Yeah."
"Wanna talk about it?" You ask, walking next to him as you both go downstairs.
"Not really." You smiled.
"You're never going to open up to me, are you? It's nice to get things off your chest, you know. I'm a great listener."
"You're also so nosy."
"Only for hot, mysterious guys." You giggle, poking him in the chest. He rolls his eyes, shaking his head and trying not to smile, but you notice his mouth twitching and the tips of his ears going red. "Where are we going, by the way?"
"Down on the beach, unless you want to go somewhere else?"
"No, it's fine. I love the beach."
"You'll freeze."
"I won't."
"You're still wearing your PJs."
"I don't need a lecture, Cloud."
"Well it's my problem if you get sick, isn't it?"
"That's cute. Assuming the responsibility of taking care of me."
"Isn't that what I'm doing right now?"
"Touche."
You both walked in silence to the beach, the breeze was warm and the stars were shining bright in the sky. The waves were crashing on the shore, the smell of the ocean was filling the air, and Cloud was beside you.
"What's on your mind?" He asked.Ā
"Hit my head when we were fighting earlier, had a headache. And just thinking about some stupid shit that happened years ago, it's so annoying when you can't get things out of your head and you get a headache."
"I get it. I feel the same way. Sometimes it feels like a million things are happening and all at once."
"Exactly."
You were quiet for a moment, listening to the ocean and feeling the soft sand beneath your feet. He turned to face you while you were looking over the water, moonlight softly reflecting in your eyes, lighting up your face. Breathtaking. Although brutally reminded of earlier as his eyes dropped down to the cut on your cheek, the gash on your arm.Ā
"Iām sorry that I couldn't get to you quick enough earlier."
"It's fine, you donāt have to protect me. Just ended up with a concussion."
"Why do you always get yourself hurt for other people?" You laughed.Ā
"I couldn't let Tifa get hurt, could I? She deserves princess treatment. You would know, you have a crush on her, don't you?"Ā
"What?" Cloud choked.
"Knowing a girl that pretty since you were kids? Sounds like a great love story." You were genuinely curious, not wanting to be a homewrecker or get the wrong idea from him at any point. You could get the vibe that she liked him too, that they were flirting sometimes.Ā
"Tifa is my best friend, I've known her for years."
"You guys were arguing like a couple in Nice. Or is it a relationship?"
"We're childhood friends."
"That's not what I asked, Cloud."
"No, itās not.ā
"What about Aerith?"
"Aerith is like my sister."
"Do you have a crush on her then? Is that why you always get flustered around her?"
"Why does it matter? You've got a thing for Reno, don't you?" You burst out laughing, he couldn't help but smile watching you die for a minute straight, until you could feel abs coming through. But he genuinely wanted a straight answer. "Don't you?"
"No?" You snorted.Ā
"Leslie or Tseng?"
"Oh my God, Cloud. You're going to kill me." You laughed. "What makes you think that?"
"You kept calling them hot. The way you look at both of them too. "
"The way I look at him? Are you jealous?" You tease.
"Of course not." He said sternly.
"Why are you getting so defensive, Strife?" You smirk.
"I'm not."
"Sounds like jealousy to me."
"Why would I get jealous?"
"Are you sure you're not jealous, Cloudy? You're getting a bit worked up."
"Y/n..." He mutterest annoyedly.
"You're not denying it."
"What's there to deny? ...Oh, come on. I saw the way you looked at Reno."
"Reno's a pain in the ass. An attractive pain in the ass. But I don't like him." Thank God, he thinks. "What about you then? Aerith or Tifa?"
"No."
"No to both of them?"
"Why are you surprised?"
"Because they're gorgeous! Are you gay?!"
"No. I'm just... not attracted to them. That's all."
"Ok so... not gay, not attracted to Tifa or Aerith." You list. "You have to like someone."
"Who do you like thetn?" Iām not ready for an unrequited confession, you think.Ā
"I asked first."
"Are you 5?"
"We're literally sitting here talking about crushes and you're dodging the question. Youāre the five-year-old."
"This is ridiculous."
"Who is it?"
"Are we really going to do this here?"
"Please."
"I like you." Cloud says, finally looking at you. You freeze, blinking a couple of times. His heart sinks to his stomach, knowing he shouldāve expected rejection and feeling like a fucking idiot.Ā
"What?"
"You heard me."
"Say it again."
"I like you, Y/n. What? Have I ruined everything?"Ā One more butterfly and you would've flown away.Ā
"You don't." You say, trying to confirm it.
"Why is that so hard to believe?"
"If you're being serious I'm going to do something really stupid."
"Wha-" You grabbed the collar of his vest, pushing his face toward you, lips connecting.Ā His hands find your waist quickly, pulling you closer and deepening the kiss. Your hands snake around his neck, running through his hair, his hand cupping your cheek, thumb stroking it. He pulls away, biting your bottom lip, picking your hips to wrap your legs around his waist, panting heavily and taken shocked.Ā Ā
"You have no idea how long it took for me to come to terms with the fact I like you."
āI canāt believe it either.ā You smile, kissing him again. āI bagged Cloud Strife.ā
āAnd I bagged you.ā
"Letās get back to the hotel. Itās cold.ā
āAlmost like I said. And whoās going to be the one taking care of you?ā
āItās almost like I wanted you to warm me up.ā You smiled.Ā
ā¦
He quickly had you against the door the second you got in, kissing down your neck feverishly. It was the only thing he could do after you had been relentlessly going through his mind all week. He wanted nothing more than to feel every inch of you.
"Cloud," you moan, pulling at his vest and throwing it off of him.
"What?" He breathes, his hand reaching the back of your neck to pull you into another kiss.
"Do you know how hot you are?"
"Do you know how hot you are? Why the hell are you not naked yet?" He mumbles into your mouth, ripping your shirt off.
"Fuck." You gasp, as his lips travel down your chest, unclipping your bra. "Couldn't even wait to get onto the bed? Ah-!" His nimble fingers came to your breast, rolling the bud, his mouth sucking in your other nipple, tongue swirling around it. You grip onto his hair, your body burning, twitching. He lifts his head, his lips capturing yours again.
"You're beautiful."
"You're making me blush." You breathe, as his finger catches in your waistband, moving slowly.
āIt looks good on you."
"Hurry up, please,"
"Begging already?"
"You've had me waiting long enough, I swear-" He presses his lips against yours again, silencing you.
"Patience."
"I canāt." You mutter as he pulls off your shorts and undergarments, bringing his face down, arms wrapped around your thighs to prop you up against the wall.
"Please, Cloud."
"God, I love it when you beg. You have no idea what it does to me." He groans, taking in what is in front of him.Ā
"Fucking do something about it." You say frustratedly, bucking your hips forward to prompt any kind of contact.Ā
"Didn't expect you to be such a brat." He nudges his nose against your clit, making your thighs squeeze, although forced back open by his arms.
"Cloud!"
He licks a long stripe down your pussy, his tongue slipping in. His tongue flicks, making you arch as you whisper his name over and over.
"Cloud, fuck, Cloud,"
"So pretty," he says, muffled.
"More, please."
He takes your clit into his mouth, his tongue swirling around it, his arms holding you up as you start to shake. His tongue works its way down, sliding in and out, nose pressed deeply into your sensitive bud. It didn't take you long to feel yourself build up to your finish.
"I'm close." You whimper, he feels your thighs tighten, letting your thighs squeeze his head and hang your legs over your shoulder.Ā
"Come on, baby."
You moan as your climax reaches, eyes rolling back, gripping his hair tightly. Your legs begin to twitch, his head lifting up.
"So perfect for me." He hums, standing up, held up by your ass as he brings your face up for a kiss. He brings you over to lie on his bed. He kisses down your body, making you whine.
"What about you?" You ask.Ā
"What about me?"
"Don't you want to finish?"
"You want me to fuck you?"
"God, yes."
"Are you sure you can handle it, princess?" He asks, undoing his trousers and removing the rest of his clothes. āHow do you want it?ā
"However you want."
"I asked how you wanted it, Y/n.ā
"I'm indecisive, I just need you. Do whatever you want, please."
"You sure you're not going to regret that? I won't hold back." He says, kicking off his trousers. You can see the bulge through his boxers, making your heart stop for a minute. "Having second thoughts?"
"That's a lot for my first time."
"You're a virgin?"
"I don't exactly have time for boyfriends when I move all over the place."
"I'll be gentle then."
"I thought you said you weren't holding back." You sit up, watching him as he pulls it out, and kicks away his boxers too. Speechless.
"Only if you had a deathwish." He teases.Ā
"Can I suck it?"
"Only if you promise not to bite."
"No promises."
He smiles, stroking his cock a couple of times, standing over you. He lets your hand wrap around it, guiding you to his tip. You take him in your mouth, his hand tangling itself in your hair, gently guiding himself down your throat.
"You're so pretty." He groans. You swirl your tongue, making him buck his hips slightly, a moan escaping his lips. You hum, sending vibrations down his dick, his grip tightening in your hair.
"Faster," he pleads, thrusting into your mouth, your eyes watering as he goes deeper. "Fuck,"
He pulls out, you lick a long strip down the underside, sucking the tip. You can taste the precum as you go back to deepthroating him as far as you can manage until you feel his balls tighten.
"God, I could cum in your mouth right now."
You can feel him getting close, his grip starts to tighten. He pulls you away by your hair.
"I was going to let you finish me, but I want to hear you scream." He pushes you back down onto the bed, spreading your legs wide open. You can feel the heat radiating off of his dick, as it rests on your pelvis. "You still want this?"
"Yes, Cloud. Please, please."
"Needy thing." He says, leaning down to peck your lips. He swirls a finger around your clit, before pushing the tip against it, slowly running it up and down. He watches the way your face contorts in pleasure, as you grab the pillow underneath your head. He lines himself up, changing his mind at the last second with a grin, rubbing it up between your lips again.Ā
"Stop teasing me,"
"It's so fun to watch your squirm,"
"I'll finish myself off."
"Oh yeah? How are you going to do that if I'm holding you down?" He grabs your wrists, pinning them above your head.
"I can't wait any longer, please."
"Since you're begging so nicely."
"God, finally." He leans over again, kissing you one more time before lining himself up. Slowly, pushing the tip in, and letting you adjust to the stretch as he stayed there for a minute. He groaned, it was already so tight, hot, wet.
"Fuck... So tight." He mutters, thrusting the tip in. "You okay?"
"Yeah." You twitch around him, and he feels it. He pushes in slowly, inch by inch. His cock filling you, the stretch getting wider, as he slides in completely, the inside of you full.
"Ah- Fuck."
"Want me to stop?" You shake your head. He bites down on his bottom lip. "God you feel so good." Slowly, he pulls out, the head catching on the edge, and pushes in again. The pace stays slow for a while, his hand holding your wrists above your head.
"Taking me so good." He moans, kissing your neck again. You whimper, any discomfort starting to melt away, pleasure taking over.
"Harder, Cloud."
He complies, snapping his hips into you, the pace slowly picking up. You cry out and his hand comes off your wrists to clamp around your mouth before you woke up everyone else, his thrusts turning into a fast and rough pace, the sound of skin slapping on skin echoing through the room. His breath was hot on your neck, panting.
"You want it rough?"Ā
"God, please, yes." He pulls out suddenly, flipping you over onto your chest, your ass hanging in the air.Ā
His hand came to your hip, slamming back into you, grabbing a handful of hair and yanking it back, forcing your back to arch. His pace was brutal, his hand leaving your hip, coming to the small of your back, holding you in that position. The room filled with nothing but the sound of his balls hitting your clit, the obscene wet noise of his cock slipping in and out. You bury your face into the pillow, muffling the noises spilling out of your mouth.
"God, you take my cock so well. Such a good girl." He groans. His pace begins to stagger, his dick twitching inside you. "Can't believe I had to wait this long for you."
He pulls your head back, pressing his chest against your back. He kisses and sucks at the skin of your neck, his hips snapping against your ass, the sound of the headboard knocking against the wall. His hand comes back down to your clit, rubbing harsh circles, and it was overwhelming. You felt tears form in the corner of your eyes.
"I'm so close."
"Me too."
"Come on, y/n, cum on my cock." His hips snapped again, and you couldn't hold back anymore. The knot in your stomach released, your legs shaking.
"Fuck." He groans, his hips stuttering and his hand coming down to grip your ass, feeling the convulsions of your body around his dick. "I'm going to cum inside."
"Please."
"You want it?"
"Uh-huh."
He buries himself inside, a guttural groan escaping his throat, the heat of his cum filling you up, twitching, his thrusts slowing, riding out his orgasm. His arms wrapped around your body, keeping you pressed against his chest, as you both lay there, panting, trying to catch your breath.
"Fuck." He chuckles. "That was..."
"Wow."
"Are you okay?" He asks.
"I'm seeing stars, I think. Or maybe I'm in love."
"You're definitely in love." He smiles, kissing your cheek. He thrusts deep into you one more time, his cock sensitive, the both of you moaning. "Round two?" He suggests.
"I'll die." He laughs and pulls out of you, you whimpering at the loss. He rolls onto his back, pulling you with him.
"I'll get you a pill tomorrow morning, okay?"
"I have an important question."
He wraps his arms around your waist, his forehead pressed against yours. "Go on."
"How did you learn how to fuck so good?"
"I had a lot of pent-up energy."
"So I was just an easy outlet?"
"Maybe."
"I don't want to hear another word."
"I'm joking. It was pent up feelings, you idiot."
"Or maybe you're just a man whore?"
"No, definitely not. Just pent up feelings, like I said."
"For how long?"
"Like a year."
"That's a long time."
"I know."
"Why didn't you say anything?"
"I thought you didn't like me."
"Cloud."
āMm.ā
āYouāre stupid.ā
āI know. We couldāve fucked sooner.ā
"Is that what you're really thinking about?"
"Not really. I'm thinking about how good your pussy feels around my cock."
"You're gross."
"You're gross, you made me cum inside you. They're going to give us an earful tomorrow, they definitely heard us." He mumbles, littering kisses up and down your neck again, wrapping his arms around you tighter.Ā
"Guess we better get some sleep then?"
āAnything you say, princess.ā

Who's the dad
This is a Evan Buckley (9-1-1) fanfiction I have finally decided to post. It is the first or second fanfiction I have written in my whole life so this is probably bad. English is not my first language so there could be a few mistakes.
I hope everyone who reads this enjoys it. If anyone has feedback, I am open for it.<3
Summary: A few months after a one-night stand leaves (Y/N) pregnant, she unexpectedly meets the baby's father at a BBQ at her dad's fire station.
The blonde guy was hot, (Y/N) had to admit. His baby blue shirt lets his eyes glow in the most perfect way.
āSo why are you here today?ā, (Y/N) asked. They both had a silent deal: no nameās, no prying for information.
āHard day at workā, the man answered. āYou?ā
āHard week.ā (Y/N) knew she was already drunk, but she ordered another tequila. In the afternoon, she brought her kids to their grandparents, Bobby and Athena. The reason she told them: I need the evening for drinking until I donāt even know my name anymore.
She knew drinking wasnāt going to solve her problem, but it would numb her for at least one night. It would make her forget the pain.
The man nodded, but she didnāt even know what she had said before.
They drank a few drinks together until both of them saw black spots dancing in front of their eyes.
(Y/N) knew it was wrong what she wanted to do know. She wanted to kiss this man. She wanted to forget why she was here tonight. She knew exactly how wrong it would be. How disappointed everyone would look at her. But screw it. She wanted him and she wanted him now.
She leant forward and pressed a kiss on his lips. It felt so right, but so wrong. It didnāt matter. The blonde deepened the kiss. The next thing (Y/N) knew was that they were in the manās apartment. In his bed.
___
(Y/N) did her best to hide the baby bump ā but it didnāt help much. Maybe she could tell everyone she has just eaten too much when they were in Europe. She hasnāt seen anyone of her family in the last 5 months. They didnāt know she was pregnant and they are not supposed to. Half a year ago she packed her stuff and drove away with the kids.
After her husband died and she slept with this stranger, she had to leave. She wasnāt able to stay anymore. She was ashamed of herself. How was she able to sleep with someone just some hours after Henry died? They werenāt always happy but she loved him. He had been her world. Until he was gone.
āMommy? How much longer we have to drive?ā James asked from the back of the car. He was the most impatient of her kids.
āOnly around half an hour then you can finally see grandpa and grandma again.ā
(Y/N) heard a sigh from her son and chuckled.
āIs there going to be cake? Is grandpa going to make pasta for us?ā Cameron. She and James are twins and couldnāt be more similar. Both impatient and always hungry until they ate two bites and complain about being too full to eat any more.
āI donāt know. I have never been to a party at the station.ā Nobody knew they were going to come. It was going to be a surprise.
Suddenly, Emily began to cry in her seat. The two-year old always slept in the car, but when she woke up, she always had a shock and started to cry when she noticed they were driving.
āLiv, can you please give Emily her pacifier?ā The 14-year-old didnāt seem to hear her mom, as she had her headphones in her ears and scrolled through TikTokās.
āLiv! Give your sister her damn pacifier!ā Finally.
After two weeks in Europe, (Y/N) was already super annoyed. She tried to keep it cool, but it wasnāt easy to be with four kids and pregnant when she didnāt have her husband around.
___
Just a few minutes later, (Y/N) parked in front of the firehouse. She had been here before. Not inside it but she had dropped off her father a few times when his car was at the car repair.
āOk! We are here! All out of the car!ā (Y/N) picked up her youngest and followed the rest of the kids inside the firehouse.
She didnāt see many people downstairs, but around 50 people were upstairs.
ā(Y/N)? Hey! Youāre back! Where were you in the last few months? We tried to call you but you didnāt answer. We were so worried!ā Bobby literally ran to her and hugged her as tightly as possible with Emily between them. āShe grew up so muchā, he said, reaching out to stroke Emilyās back.
āYes. She absolutely did.ā (Y/N) could see the worried and exhausted expression on her fatherās face and immediately felt sorry for not even writing him and Athena a message that she and the kids were ok.
āMay I introduce you to the team?ā, Bobby asked after hugging the twins and Liv, who finally put away her headphones.
The 118ās Captain led his family to a bunch of people in uniforms.
āThese guys are Eddie, Chimney, Hen and Buck.ā (Y/N)ās breath caught in her throat. Fuck. The super-hot guy stood in front of her. With his uniform he looked even better that in his baby blue shirt he wore the last time. Why the fuck did she still remember what this guy had worn when they met in the bar?!
āMeet (Y/N), Liv, James, Cameron and Emily.ā
āHey! Nice to meet yāallā, (Y/N) said overly friendly, trying to hide the surprise, as well as Buck did.
āGrandpa? You have cake?ā, Cameron asked Bobby.
āOf course. A party without cake isnāt a party. Come on, Iāll show you all.ā Bobby led the kids away from (Y/N) and the team, over to the kitchen island on which many plates of cake were standing.
āāSoā¦ you are Capās daughter?ā, a brown-haired man asked, who (Y/N) remembered as Eddie.
āYepp, thatās me.ā (Y/N) looked at Buck who looked just as surprised, as she felt.
āSo, you are Buck?ā, she asked him just as a try to build a conversation. She tugged gently on her shirt, as she didnāt want Buck to notice her baby bump.
āUhmā¦ yes. I am. Evan Buckley. Soā¦ these are your kids? You look quite youngā, Buck asked and (Y/N) furrowed her brow until she realized, they havenāt talked about ages when they spent the night together. She was quite young for already having 4 kids. She had Liv when she was 16, but she barely told people, as she always got these judging looks.
āYes, they are.ā (Y/N) stared at the ground, unable to hold eye contact with the man she had a breathtaking night.
āFatherās not in the picture?ā, Eddie asked and (Y/N) could see that Buck was relieved, that his friend asked the question, so he didnāt seem too suspicious.
āUm, no. He died 5 months ago. Car accident.ā Instead of staring at the ground, (Y/N) now looked at the ceiling, trying to stop the tears, which always threatened to flow freely, whenever she talked about her late husband.
When she finally managed to make eye contact with Evan, she could see pain written over his face. Her husband died 5 months ago, around the same time, she slept with him. Had he been some kind of replacement? He knew they agreed to one night ā no personal information, but it still hurt to know she didnāt actually feel the tiniest bit. She only had tried to compensate everything.
---
Around 3 hours later, in which the 118 got a small call once but came back after only one and a half hour, they all sat at the big table, because it was dinner time. Most of the time, (Y/N) stood on the sidelines, as she didnāt really feel comfortable around all these people she barely knew, and Buck. Nobody seemed to have noticed the baby bump which was covered under her shirt.
And now, (Y/N) even felt nauseous and had cramps in her lower belly. Her other pregnancies had gone quite well, except the last few months with the twins, but this pregnancy was terrible. She already had to go to hospital 4 times in the last 5 months, as she couldnāt keep anything down and had been severely dehydrated.
After only 2 bites, (Y/N) had to lay down the fork because she felt like she would throw up right away if she ate only one more bite. She had already thrown up breakfast and everything she drank today. She was lucky no one noticed she hasnāt eaten a piece of cake before. Ā
āAre you ok?ā, the brown-haired man from before asked. Eddie? (Y/N) has always been terrible with names and couldnāt remember any. It took her 2 weeks to even remember Henryās name after she met him, something he also made fun of, even years later.
āUh yes. Just not feeling too great todayā, she answered, trying to suppress the feeling to be sick. Her throat felt tight and her stomach felt like it was twisting and turning. The cramps were still present. She knew she wasnāt having a miscarriage as she once had one, and it felt different. The symptoms were pretty much the same, but she had another feeling. She had felt like something was missing, but this here wasnāt any better.
āYou sure? You donāt look too good and you havenāt eaten much. Donāt you like the food?ā, her father intervened now.
āThe foodās great. Really. I havenāt been feeling my best today, thatās it.ā
āDo you want one of the medics to take a look at you?ā Bobby really seemed worried, but his daughter waved him off.
āDad. Donāt make more out of it than it is.ā Her dad made an acknowledging sound and (Y/N) thanked him silently with a small nod.
(Y/N) fidgeted with her hands, a nervous habit, she always did when she felt uncomfortable. Today, this many people were too much. She has never liked being around many people for a long time. She felt like everyone was staring at her and making fun off her or thinking of her as a disappointment when she did something wrong. Her kids were different, except of Liv. Liv came after her mom in these things, while the others luckily came after their dad and were the most social persons in this world.
Everyone looked at (Y/N), as she suddenly stood up, because a wave of nausea waved over her. As fast as possible she went to the restrooms, but only made it to the sink, where she threw up the bit of water she had managed to drink before. She rinsed her mouth and looked in the mirror. She looked like shit. Her skin was pale and her lips dry.
The door opened, and a woman stepped inside. She was around as tall as (Y/N) was and wore a wine-red shirt, that showed she worked at the 911 dispatch center. Had she been at the dinner table before? Or has (Y/N) just not seen her?
āOh hey. Sorry. Just needed a break from out there. Who are you? I have never seen you here before. I am Maddie by the way. Chimneyās fiancĆ©, Buckās sister.ā
(Y/N) raised an eyebrow. Buckās sister?
ā(Y/N). Bobbyās daughter. Nice to meet you.ā
āAre you okay? You donāt look too well.ā Again, this question. No, she wasnāt ok. But she didnāt say anything, so everyone should stop asking her. If she wanted someone to know she wasnāt well, she would tell.
āItās okay. Just not feeling my best today.ā Maddie nodded.
āOk.ā She didnāt pry further to get information, what (Y/N) was very thankful for.
āSoo. You are Bobbyās daughter? Athena has never mentioned, that Bobby has a daughter. She usually talks about everything.ā Maddie furrowed her brow.
(Y/N) shrugged her shoulders.
āHe doesnāt like talking about his private life too much.ā
(Y/N) went back to the table, after she was sure she wouldnāt have to throw up again. But when she arrived at the dinner table again, she felt she was dizzy. Congratulations. First, she was sick and now she was dizzy because she didnāt drink or eat enough today.
She caught Bobbyās concerned gaze as he was looking at her, before everything went black.
___
āHeyyy! Here we go. You with us again?ā She felt something painful on her chest and after a few moments she realized it was someone performing sternal rub to bring her back around. (Y/N) grumbled something.
When she tried to sit up again, there was a firm hand on her shoulder that kept her laid down.
āDamn, let me sit up if I want to. I am fine.ā But (Y/N) noticed on her own how hoarse she sounded from being sick.
The hand suddenly disappeared from her shoulder, but when (Y/N) sat up, the hand was back at her back to steady her and kept her from falling over. Finally, she managed to open her eyes and caught look on the brown-haired man ā Eddie. Evan sat directly next to her.
āWe are just going to check a few things, ok?ā All (Y/N) did, was giving an acknowledging sound from her.
The next thing she felt was a pulse-oximeter being slipped on her index finger and a blood pressure cuff on the other arm. She winced when Eddie inflated it and it squeezed tightly around her arm, which made her eyes well up with tears.
She had never liked the BP reading. When she was a kid, she cried freely as it made her arm feel like needles were jabbing it.
āSorry.ā Eddie was quick to deflate the cuff again after noticing the tears in (Y/N)ās eyes but she just shook her head to show everythingās ok. āBPās 108/70. We are going to give you something to raise it again.ā
āNo! Wait!ā (Y/N) frantically said. āIā¦ Iā¦ā She made a sign for Eddie to come near to her so she could whisper into his ear without anyone hearing it. āI am pregnant but no one can know yet. I didnāt tell anyone.ā
āOkayyyā¦ I think we should go somewhere more private.ā (Y/N) nodded agreeing.
Despite the otherās confused looks, they made their way to the locker room. Once they were there, Eddie began talking again.
āHas this happened before?ā
āYes, I already was in hospital because of it but it is just this morning sickness. I canāt keep anything down and it makes me dehydrated.ā When (Y/N) looked to her right, she could see Buck looking at them but he couldnāt hear anything, right? He wasnāt as near and it was quite loud upstairs.
āMhm. I want to hook you up on an IV if thatās ok with you? I donāt want you to be as dehydrated as you are now and I figure you donāt want a trip to the ER?ā
āYes, if that is possible, please.ā
Only a few seconds later, (Y/N) could see her dad storming into the locker room.
āSweetheart, what happened?ā He looked kind of mad but also worried.
āEhmā¦ It is complicaā¦ā
āShe is dehydrated because she didnāt drink or eat enough. She just wants to be alone for a moment and I can give her an IV,ā Eddie intervened. (Y/N) shot him a thankful gaze and a tiny smile. She liked Eddie. He was really kind. She couldnāt think of any of her friends, who would do that for her.
āMhm. Ok. I am going to call Athena. She said she would be here earlier. Iāll come back later.ā
Bobby disappeared as fast as he came into the room.
āThanks. For not telling him.ā Eddie smiled at her.
āItās not on me. And I think there are going to be better circumstances for that talk. How far are you?ā
ā5 months.ā
āAh. May I askā¦ā, he hesitated for a moment. āIs it your late husbandās baby?ā
āNo.ā You didnāt know for sure why you told him, but he kind of let you feel calm and safe. āWe didnātā¦ you knowā¦ the time before he died. We argued a lot. Had a one-night stand just a few hours after he died.ā
āYou know the father? Were you able to call and tell him?ā Eddie looked honestly interested while he put an IV bag out of the medkit.
(Y/N) shook her head before nodding.
āI havenāt seen himā¦ until today.ā Eddie looked shocked and raised his eyebrows.
āToday? Is he here? At the station?ā
(Y/N) nodded guiltily and looked at the ground when she heard Eddie chuckle.
āDamn, tell me more. Who is it?ā
āBuck.ā
āBuck?ā The firefighter looked even more shocked than before and you nodded again.
āI didnāt know his name we agreed to āno personal informationā. Why would I know he worked at my dadās workplace? Godā¦ when he will find out he is going to be so pissed.ā Eddie shook his head.
āNah, I donāt think so. He will understand. And hey. You donāt have to defend yourself.ā She smiled at his kindness.
She watched as Eddie swabbed the alcohol pad over the back of her hand.
āI would recommend to close your eyes if you are not good with needlesā, he suggested. But (Y/N) couldnāt. She needed to see what Eddie was doing, even though she wasnāt good with needles. When the firefighter pushed the needle in the back of her hand, she let out a small squeal.
āTold you to keep your eyes closed but you refused to listen.ā She heard Eddie chuckle. āDo you have any other symptoms I should be worried about?ā
āI have crampsā, she admitted.
āLower belly?ā (Y/N) nodded. Why couldnāt she just have been home. She would lie on the couch and relax, but instead she was here, being poked and prodded by a firefighter.
āCan I take a look?ā She nodded again. Eddie pulled her shirt over her abdomen and pressed his palm on different spots. (Y/N) looked upstairs, and froze. Fuck. She forgot that Evan was still standing upstairs, looking at the locker room. Looking at her.
Her eyes widened. Why had she agreed to this? Why didnāt she insist on being ok and went home? Why was she so stupid? She wanted to slap herself for not thinking.
Eddie seemed to notice her sudden panic, the pulse-oximeter, which was still clipped to her finger, chirped in high pitched noises.
āHey, hey. Look at me. Deep breaths. Whatās up?ā
āBā¦ Buck.ā The firefighter looked where she was pointing at and sucked in a deep breath.
āOk. Thatās ok. Weāll fix that, after we are finished here, ok? Itāll be ok. Donāt worry. Try to breathe with me, the baby wonāt like you breathing like that.ā Demonstrative, Eddie took some deep breaths. āDo you know the gender yet?ā
(Y/N) could tell that Eddie was only trying to distract her but she played along.
āAā¦ girl. Itās a girl. Again.ā She laughed. Her breathing became slower, steadier.
āThatās great. You already told your kids?ā
āMhm.ā
āHow did they react? Are they happy?ā Eddie grinned at her.
āYā¦ yes. They are. James was a bit d- disappointed at first. H- he hoped he would finally get a brother t- to play soccer with.ā (Y/N) smiled. āBut the g- girls were all over t-the moon.ā
The brown-haired man, put an oxygen mask over her face, which she tried to pull off, but his hand was immediately back, to hold the mask in place.
āLet it on, pleaseā, he said with a look at the pulse-oximeter which was still chirping. āItāll make it easier to breathe for you.
(Y/N) nodded, even though she hated the feeling of the mask, which made her feel the opposite of āeasier to breatheā.
āCan I have a listen to the babyās heartbeat?ā After he had seen (Y/N) nodded again, he took the stethoscope and pressed the diaphragm to her belly.
āLooks good so far. The heartbeat is a bit fast for my liking but itās nothing too concerning, just take some deep breaths, ok?ā
āCopy, Firefighter Diaz.ā (Y/N) took some deep breaths.
Just a few seconds later, someone stormed into the locker room. Buck.
āYouā¦ you are pregnant?ā Buck hoped that (Y/N) would tell him it wasnāt his. That it was her husbandās.
āYes.ā She was surprised that her voice didnāt sound as high and panicking as she thought it would. She was scared. Scared of Buckās reaction, which became even more clear, as the pulse-oximeter started to chirp frantically again.
Eddie took a look and was surprised how high the shown numbers were.
āDeep breathsā, he commanded her. But she couldnāt.
āWhoās the dad? Is it mine? Or is there a tiny chance, that it is your husbandās?ā Even though (Y/N) thought something like that would come out of Buckās mouth, she felt disappointment deep in her. She hoped he would not sound as panicked as he was now.
āYourās.ā (Y/N) fell silent, holding her breath in anticipation of what Evan would say now.
āOhā¦ wow. I have to admit that is a shock. Whyā¦ why didnāt you tell me? I could have been there with you.ā
āI didnāt have your number, your address, your workplace. Not even your name! I didnāt even know if you lived in LA or somewhere else! What should I have done?ā
Eddie put the oxygen mask over her mouth and nose, that she just put off again, but she immediately put it back to the floor. She didnāt want to breathe in the oxygen. It made her feel lightheaded and nauseous and gave her a headache.
ā(Y/N)! Damn, breathe properly now the babyās not comfortable anymore. Buck, I think you should go now and let her breathe a bit without the stress, this conversation puts on her.ā
āNo, he wonāt go now! Not until this conversation is finished!ā (Y/N) glared at Eddie. She wasnāt sure if that were the pregnancy hormones speaking out of her which have made her a bit temperamental these last few months.
āWhat do you want to do now? Buck? Do you have a girlfriend? Do you want to be a part in the babyās life? Do you want to be part in MY life? I need to know it.ā She could feel tears welling up in her eyes. Definitely the hormones which made her act strange at the moment.
āI donāt know exactly what I want to do now. But I donāt have a girlfriend. And I want to be part of the babyās life. I want to be their fatherā¦ā
āHer. Itās a girlie. Again.ā (Y/N) could see Evan smiling a bit.
āOk. I want to be HER father and spend time with her. And I think I would like to try to go on a dateā¦ with you. If you think you are ready. I liked you the last time we met, even though that could be because I had been really drunk that night.ā Buck laughed and blushed a bit.
āI thinkā¦ I think we can give it a try. I donāt know if I am ready for everything. But I do know I am ready for something. And maybe that could be with you.ā
āOkā¦ uhmā¦ great. And now you should really try to breathe properly with that mask. I know itās not great, but even I can recognize how high your vitals are.ā
She did as she was told. (Y/N) knew she liked Buck. He was cute. She wouldnāt have imagined to see a man like him blushing when talking about a baby and dating.
āIām nauseous.ā Eddie and Buck both looked a bit worried.
āDeep breaths. I think itās just the IV and oxygen. I put some meds in the IV that should help with the belly cramps, that could make you feel nauseous.ā
(Y/N) only nodded. She suddenly felt exhausted. The adrenaline of the day started to wear of.
āI think Iām gonna drive the kids home and we are going to relax a bit while watching some tv. Thank you for everything.ā
āWait. Stop. I wonāt let you drive home alone. You donāt feel good and I wouldnāt like to know you donāt have anyone with you except you kids.ā She nodded again. Evan was right. It would be stupid to not have anyone around her.
āI can come with you. Just if thatās ok with you.ā
āYes. That would be great. Thanks.ā
āNo problem. Shall we take your car?ā
āMhm.ā She was thankful. She could really imagine Buck as a boyfriend. He is great.
---
āThat doesnāt make any sense.ā Evan laughed. He, (Y/N) and Liv were sat on the couch, watching a firefighter show, (Y/N) and Liv had been addicted to in the last few weeks.
āIt doesnāt matter! This show is great!ā Liv and Evan discussed about the mistakes in the show since around 10 minutes and it made (Y/N) smile. It was like a real family. Even though it hurt her a bit that it wasnāt Henry, sitting here. But letās be honest: Henry would have never watched a show like that.
āThat doesnāt change the fact, that you donāt use the saw like that. Itās just not safe!ā
āThen just do not pay attention to the details.ā Now, it was Liv laughing. (Y/N) hasnāt seen her daughter that happy in the last few months. She tried to cover up her emotions but it didnāt work completely. Her eyes started to burn and she felt a pressure building up. No, she wasnāt going to cry. Not in front of Evan. Her daughter. No.
āIāll go to toilet for a moment.ā She hoped nobody would notice she was about to cry, but her voice gave it away. She sounded hoarse and her voice broke at some point.
She locked the bathroom door and sank down to the cold floor, where she curled up, leaning her back on the even colder wall. Her hand was rubbing circles over her swollen belly. Damn it.
(Y/N) knew she missed Henry. She knew her kids have missed him every second since his death. But she was scared. Scared that moving on with Evan would make her forget her late husband. She heard a gentle knock on the wooden bathroom door.
āMay I come in?ā Buck.
āOk.ā Her voice sounded hoarse. She attempted to brush the tears away but it really didnāt work. Her eyes were still read, as well as her cheeks.
She got up to unlock the door, for Buck to come in. After he stepped inside the room, he closed the door again. He sat down next to her, and (Y/N) leaned her head on his shoulder.
āWhatās up?ā, he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.
āNothing.ā Evan shot her a look, that said more than a thousand words.
āThis honestly doesnāt look like nothing.ā
āI donāt want to forget Henry. And I am scared. I have never had a relationship before him. And I still have cramps. And I still donāt feel too good in general. And I am scared of giving birth alone. And I am scared of everything else in my life.ā Buck looked at her with a concerned expression and immediately pulled her into a hug as (Y/N) began to cry again.
āOk. So, we first go to hospital, because these cramps make me worried, and then we can figure everything else out, ok?ā He pressed a sloppy kiss on (Y/N)ās forehead, and she nodded.
āMhm. But you need to help me get up, the baby is in the way.ā

WHATāS MY NAME? i heard you good with them soft lips. yeah, you know word of mouth. the square root of 69 is 8 something, right? ācause i been trynaā work it out.
THIS IS PART ONE! part two here. pairing, paige bueckers x tutor!oc. notes, rihanna and drake made this fire ass song 14 years ago and iām about to put it to good use okā¦ this also isnāt proofread iāll probably go over it later? warnings, just loads of tension, sexual innuendos, no smut yet.
ākk, get ooooout!ā
āno! you donāt get to steal my tutor and then kick me out the dorm,ā kk argued, not budging from her spot on paigeās bed. laid on her tummy with her feet propped up in the air, it didnāt seem like she had any intentions of moving. because she didnāt.
paige rolled her eyes sassily, ponytail swinging behind her head as she bit down on her lip, thinking of an easy way to get kk out so she could possibly get some play. you know, put those rizz hands to good use. letās just say she already contemplated picking the 5ā9 girl up and tossing her out.
paige let out a dramatic sigh, shifting her weight to one hip as she crossed her arms. āwhy you always gotta be so difficult, bro?ā
kk smirked from her spot, still kicking her feet lazily in the air. ābecause you make it too easy. come on, p, whatās the big deal? itās not like youāre actually gonna study. you donāt even need it.ā
paige shot her a glare, only angrier because it was true. her grades were stellar, and her gpa was looking better than most of the teamās. but that didnāt mean she couldnāt use someā¦ extra help. especially when the tutor in question was ridiculously pretty.
half-tempted to retaliate with a pillow, paige squints at her before there was a knock at the door. her eyes widened. sheād been hoping for at least another few minutes to strategize. without thinking, she darted for the door, fully aware that kk was hot on her heels.
they both reached for the handle at the same time, their hands colliding.
āmove!ā paige hissed, her voice laced with all the attitude as she tried to nudge kk out of the way with her elbow.
āno, you move! iām doing you a favor,ā kk retorted, playfully leaning against the door so she couldnāt open it.
the blonde felt her patience wearing thin. ākk i sweaāā
before she could finish, kk swung the door open, and they were both greeted by a pair of deep brown eyes that made paigeās thoughts momentarily short-circuit. standing in front of them was a girl with caramel skin, curly hair pulled into a loose ponytail, and a confident smile that made her forget all the words sheād been ready to throw at kk.
liana, a junior here at uconn, stood there holding a notebook, a tote bag of any other needs slung over her shoulder. she was completely unfazed by their little showdown, deciding it was probably normal for them.
āhey, liana,ā kk greeted her with a warm smile, all casual and cool, like this wasnāt the most awkward situation ever.
paige, on the other hand, was still struggling to get her brain back online, looking a bit flabbergasted before finally clearing her throat. āuh, hi, liana.ā
liana smiled, her gaze finally landing on the blonde. somehow, she wasnāt able to pick up on her nervousness. paige never got nervous. well, maybe a few timesā¦ and now. ānice to meet you. kk mentioned you needed help in algebra, right?ā
āright.ā
the two girls stepped aside, inviting liana in. she immediately got busy situating her things on the table by the door, opening her bag and taking out a laptop, some books, and a few different writing utensils. as she arranged everything with methodical precision, paige and kk stood behind her, watching her work.
āyou gonna be a good girl?ā kk teased, her voice sarcastic with a slight whine.
before blondie could respond with words, she hit kk in the stomach, earning a dramatic groan. she shot her a glare before heading to her seat, watching as her teammate made her way to the back.
liana settled into her spot next to paige, opening her laptop and flipping through her notes. the blonde leaned back in her chair, trying to seem as nonchalant as possible, but her eyes kept drifting back to the girl in front of her. there was no way she missed her on campus for two years, and kk of all people was the first to find her.
paigeās attention adverted to the books, eyebrows furrowing a bit at the amount of stuff sheād brought over. āyou only tutor algebra?ā
liana immediately shook her head, finally settling on a notes page and flipping it open. āno, i basically do any class iāve taken. iām good at it, and it makes me extra money, so..ā
paige nodded slowly, still processing. āmakes sense. thatās a lot of stuff, though. you planning to teach me everything in one night?ā
liana chuckled softly, the sound light and easy. āno, just prepared for whatever you might throw at me. better to have too much than not enough.ā their eyes locked, faces a bit too close to be considered normal. āright?ā
āright,ā paige echoed, her voice almost a whisper as she quickly pulled back, clearing her throat and trying to regain some refocus. she figured sheād be doing a lot of that tonight.
they started working through the material, and almost an hour had passed at this point. paige had yawned about three times, apologizing after every single one of them. as liana started explaining the next problem, paige found herself staring at her instead of the notes. the way her lips moved when she spoke, the moles on her face that formed a delicate pattern, like constellations on her skin. she couldnāt help but wonder how she hadnāt noticed them earlierāhow she hadnāt noticed any of this earlier. the way she absentmindedly picked at the eraser of her pencil, her fingers twisting and tugging at it as she explained a concept. the small silver bracelet she wore on her wrist, catching the light every time she moved her hand.
paige stretched casually in her chair at one point, shifting slightly to get a better view of lianaās profile. her thighs, in particular were yelling at her, fully exposed and on display. her eyes trailed up, and thatās when she noticed itāa small tattoo behind her ear, half-hidden by her curls. it was too intricate and small to make out completely, and paige huffed as she settled her chair, giving up.
as they worked through the material, paige found herself growing increasingly distracted. she leaned in, pretending to scrutinize her notes with more interest than she actually had.
āis this good? i been trynaā work it out.ā she pointed to a particularly tricky problem on the page, her gaze lingering a little too long on lianaās face.
the curly-haired girl glanced at the problem, then back at paige, her brow slightly raised. ālooks like you missed a step here. let me explain.ā
paige nodded eagerly, leaning even closer to get a better view. she was trying hard not to focus on how close they were, or how she could literally smell the perfume on her neck. it was almost too easy to get lost in the moment, with every word liana said seeming to carry a double meaning. or maybe she was just entirely too fascinated by this girl, and was overthinking everything.
by the time the session came to an end and the two exchanged some last words about when theyād be meeting again, liana had packed up her things and was standing by the door, looking ready to head out. paige, who seemingly had gotten a good amount of what she wanted got up to follow, straightening her shirt out in the process.
as liana reached for the door handle, she paused and spun around, a slightly embarrassed smile on her face. āsorry, this is kinda embarrassing, butā¦ you didnāt tell me your name.ā
paigeās eyes widened in surprise. āyou donāt know my name?ā
liana licked her lips. āwell, no.ā
paige shook her head, apologizing with a sheepish smile on her face. āmy bad, iām just not used to hearing that. iām paige.ā
liana nodded, her lips curving into a soft giggle. āiāve definitely seen you around, iām just not really wrapped up in the whole sports thing here.ā
paige took a step closer, her hands casually tucked into the pockets of her sweatpants. āthatās alright. looks like we gotta get you tickets to my next game then.ā she was leaned up against the door at this point, the two of them face to face and paige looking as seducing as ever.
lianaās gaze lingered on the blonde, squinting as if she were trying to figure her out. she tilted her head slightly, her playful smile widening. āthat an invite?ā
āif you want it to be. let me put in my number so youān gotta get to me through thing two in the back.ā paige pointed down the hallway, referring to kk. the comment made liana laugh, reaching into her back pocket to hand the blonde her phone.
paige quickly entered her details, her thumbs typing away as she saved her own contact. giving it back, their fingers brushed lightly in the process. āperfect. i got you with the game details.ā
liana gave her a warm smile. ālooking forward to it.ā
with one last flirtatious glance, liana headed out the door, and paige watched her go, a satisfied smile playing on her lips at the sight of her backā¦ her ass.
just then, kk rounded the corner, her phone held up as she laughed into the screen. paige bit down on her lip, shutting the door as she turned to face the newfound noise. āi canāt believe you just rizzed up our tutor, dude!ā she said, her voice carrying down the hallway. aubrey and iceās laughter echoed through the speaker, their voices mingling with kkās as they all seemed to have heard the interaction.
ācāmon, iām really like that!ā paige patted her chest aggressively, jumping around like a kid. and she believed it, too. she was gonna make liana bale remember her name.

if you have the time or inclination, can i ask what the deal with motogp/those boys is about? i donāt mean that in a mean way btw, im just curious and i love drama
i will try to be brief (1/4358)
SO! valentino rossi (born 16 February 1979, aquarius. italian.) is one of the most iconic people in motorsport, CERTAINLY in motogp. he's a 9 time world champion, your favorite driver's favorite driver, and is generally credited with revolutionizing the popularity of the sport by: a. being insanely good at motorcycle racing, and b. in general having a lot of fun about it. lethally charming and charismatic. all time active listening face. just a fun and funny dude that everyone pretty much likes and MANY younger riders idolize. VERY good at handling the media and his legions of cult-like fans. sometimes treated more like a god than a person. i was in the store yesterday and saw one of his themed monster energy drinks despite him retiring two years ago. his fun retirement activity is racing BMWs and running his own motogp team/training facility/cult for young italian racers. (this is where cele and bezz and basically every italian rider not named enea bastianini come from!)
so in 2011ish valentino had won 9 titles, and he decided to leave his current manufacturer and move to italian manufacturer ducati where he generally had a stone-cold terrible time. EXTENDED flop era for a couple years. any time ive watched content that covers this period everyone is so sad. so sad. anyways he GOES BACK to his old manufacturer in 2013 and is much more competitive. kind of just happy to be winning sometimes and be on the podium. 2013 is also where marc comes in. what could go wrong.
marc marquez! (born 17 february 1993, almost exactly 14 years after vale which i'm sure means nothing. also an aquarius. spanish.) childhood sports idols include: dani pedrosa, VALENTINO ROSSI.
marc carved his way up through the feeder championships until casey stoner unexpectedly retired at the end of the 2012 season leaving a seat empty on a VERY good bike for his rookie season. rocked up and was immediately VERY good at winning and very good at being a crazyinsane person on track that made people mad at him lol. hilarious habit of pissing people off via on-track crimes that i really enjoy. motogp riders are already crazy (they do death sport) but marc is famous for taking risks no one else will. basically if he's not winning, he's crashed out or he's maybe crashed YOU out. he wins the championship as a rookie (insane) and the next year's championship as well. heir apparent to the throne. sweet and goofy but is now known as one of the more reserved riders with the press. probably because of all this drama tbh. undisputed GOAT of acting like a slut on camera
throughout 2013-2014, marc and valentino had a good relationship! marc very clearly idolizes him and is like. bowled over completely with delight every time valentino looks his way. vale likes him! theyre buds! truly an endless well of pictures of vale explaining something with his hands and marc babygirling at him. highly recommend checking out @pgaslys every rosquez podium tag for contextual brain damage. insane times.
(IT SHOULD BE NOTED: before the 2015 season marc visits valentino at his practice track in italy, where they compete to break the track record and almost kill each other bc they are so pathologically competitive. APPARENTLY, marc showed up with some official mechanics and valentino was a little pissed off because it was supposed to be a like. fun thing. and to marc winning is the most fun! if you dont come to win why come at all! anyways marc breaks the track record and credits that to cooling their relationship a bit. good post about it here.) here they are that day:
so what could go wrong, right? WELL. valentino has a chance to win his tenth title in 2015. marc is on a flop bike and crashed a bunch so he's not in the championship conversation but vale is leading the standings from the jump, with his main opponent being jorge lorenzo. i think he really wanted that tenth, and dedicated himself to the season in a way he hadnt really ever before (he was a very effortless competitor when he was young. gym-adverse. king).
marc and him start to get into some scraps along the way, notably in argentina (where they made contact and marc crashed out), assen (where they made contact AGAIN and vale won the race), and phillip island (marc won. GREAT race available here for free). phillip island sees vale finishing P4 and jorge lorenzo finishing ahead of him in P3, reducing his championship lead by quite a bit. no real indication of any tension during these races, and they are asked about it!
this is where valentino's delulu era begins! basically, ahead of the next race (š„š„SEPANG 2015š„š„) in the pre-race press conference, he goes after marc, saying he was deliberately sabotaging valentino in phillip island because marc wanted jorge to win. in valentino's mind. marc wants jorge to win because a. they are both spanish (??) and b. it would mean marc has to win less titles to equal valentino's total. record scratch. freeze frame.
everyone (including marc!) thinks valentino is joking at first bc that is bananascrazyinsane. he was not joking. (it should be noted valentino STILL thinks this lol.) anyways marc is completely blindsided. he thought they were good! yeah they've been chippy on track but that's racing!! truly like. 22 years old and your friend (AND CHILDHOOD IDOL.) is calling you a snake in front of your face with NO prior warning to the entire motogp establishment writ large including your coworkers and REPORTERS. valentino wont even look at him the entire time. the press conference is available here on vimeo. excruciating gifsets of marc's very stiff bewildered PR smile found here.
anyways so. the race. marc is uh. pissed off. he's stuck to valentino like GLUE the entire time and they trade places a bunch of times. now marc is kind of famous for being a little asshole on track anyways, but its not like he's gonna get out of valentino's way and just let him pass after what he said in that press conference so. hand in unlovable hand <3. truly very fun to watch imo even with the sword of damocles hanging over them. marc is fucking on one the entire race and basically refuses to give valentino an inch until vale gets so fed up with his antics that um. well. it certainly looks like he kicked him. vale says he didnt, and that his leg accidently made contact with marc's bike. marcs says. he fucking kicked me. judge for yourself here!
so valentino gets hauled in front of race direction and penalized for the next race (the deciding race for the championship). he has to start from the back of the grid and it kills his chance at a tenth title stone dead. vale places the blame squarely on marc's shoulders and his legions of fans decide marc is public enemy number 1. him and jorge have to get security at the next race because of death threats, someone tries to break into marc's childhood home back in spain, marc's mom throws away all of marc's valentino merchandise from when he was a kid. vale says nothing.
but the thing about marc. is that he loves very hard and chooses his people pretty carefully. didnt really move out of his tiny hometown until he turned 30 and also made his baby brother move in with him kind of guy. so all this is not really enough for him to let go of vale entirely! 2016 is where the pain lives! bc marc is still reaching out and vale himself stays pretty cold for a couple years. they seem to faintly reconcile for a bit but its not anywhere like it was before sepang.
the real nail in the coffin is argentina 2018. another insane race where marc has to start from the back and goes on a rampage through the field and crashes out like three people. i cant remember. this race is also available on youtube for free its very entertaining. every five minutes marc does something insane. vale is one of the people marc crashes out and afterwardshe goes on a big rant about how marc is destroying the sport and is actively dangerous. marc goes to valentino's garage immediately after the race to apologize and vale doesnt even look at him. he gets turned away at the door after vale's best friend/assistant/henchman yells in his face1!!! and thats kind off all she wrote in terms of reconciliation
anyways that's where we are! they are both very much not over it. vale goes on podcasts and is like. in 30 years i will still be mad, im literally never going to get over it it was such a big and unfair thing and i think about it all the time like it was yesterday. and marc (lying) says as time goes by i dont even think about it :) and i care about valentino less and less :))) but yes he hurt me deeply lol. CANNOT stress enough how much this entire thing is now inextricably liked to both of their legacies. the two arguable GOATs of a sport had an epic fleetwood mac-style beatles breakup divorce and everyone wants to talk about it allllll day long including me :)
additional context! really recommend checking out marc's little docuseries he put out this year about his recent struggles with injury. he is so not right in the head and it goes over the valentino drama in ep3. theres also hitting the apex (2015) which goes over the 2013 season (marc's rookie season) and is a really good introduction to all the major players at the time. its like less than 2 hrs long so its not too much of a commitment
also recommend following scholars @babynflames, @its-always-silly-season, @baking-soda, and @f1vegas as well as many others im forgetting rn bc its 2am!
