141 member reader(codename: eagle)x könig

You're the medic of your team, you never worked with KorTac before and you weren't prepared for it or for the blue eyed Colonel.

If you like it, give a ♥️ for a second part.

Warning: mentions of blood, injuries, grammatical/ spelling errors, long story. 📢 Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters nor do I claim to own them. I do not own any of the images used nor do I claim to own them.

Pt.2

The meeting today is not going well, you've been listening to the boys complaining over and over again.

- KorTac? No, we can do this on our own.

- it's not a suggestion Ghost, I don't like the idea either but Laswell insisted.

- But Sir, those are fuckin animals!

- Yeah I don't like their techniques... Eagle, what do you think?

The four men are looking at you, expectantly, you're in your own thoughts, just waiting for your orders.

- Huh?

- What do you think Doc? Are you okay with the idea of working with KorTac?

Soap wasn't happy but like you he would do what Price and Laswell order.

- I don't mind, I mean we will play our part and they will play theirs, no?

- Indeed, eagle is right, we will arrive together, we'll clean the path for them and then... They will do what we're not allowed to do.

- Which is?

You're not new to this but you seriously don't understand why everyone is so bothered by this situation.

- Common eagle! Don't pretend you don't know.

Gaz is irritated by your silly question but you really need to understand what is going on.

- what? I seriously don't get it.

- They will torture to obtain the information we need, we're not allowed to use the same methods they usually use.

Ghost said it as if it was nothing, but now you get why they're not ok with the news.

Someone knocked on the door, Interrupting your meeting, Price opened while all of you were still talking in whispers.

- Guys, lemme introduce the members of KorTac that will be working with us. Horangi, Roze and König.

Roze and Horangi look strong but König looks like a giant bear, is taller than ghost.

- This is the 141, Ghost, Soap, Gaz and our medic, Eagle, we were already talking about how will we work.

You're still amazed by König's height, you don't even pay attention to what they're talking about, you're observing carefully, his arms are long and muscular, his legs, those thighs could explode anybody's head, his blue eyes...

- Eagle? Are you with us?

- ah? Oh fuck, Yes, I'm... Sorry Captain.

- I was saying there's a small change of plans, you will be working with König and his team.

Fuck, everybody noticed you were literally staring at him, you're blushing, focus, focus!.

- Yes, captain.

- Did you heard what will you do?

- Ah...

- Eagle is my best sniper and medic, sometimes looks like lives in the clouds but I can assure you there won't be problems during the mission.

- I hope so, I don't like to be a babysitter, Roze and Horangi, they're really good at any task (...)

A babysitter? Who does this tall man think he is? You looked at your friends, they're returning the annoyed glance at you.

- I understand, then that's how we will be working, Colonel, I'll give you the details about when we'll start.

The reunion finished, you started to walk to your room when Gaz appeared at your side with his silly malicious smirk.

- I saw that.

- What?

- You were looking at the masked giant, to be honest everybody noticed it.

- Oh god! I was just looking at how tall he is, did you saw him? It's massive, I will need to take like the double amount of everything just in case he's injured or something.

Gaz continued making fun of you, you felt seriously embarrassed you tried to do your usual tasks and pretend nothing happened then disappeared until it was dinner time.

You were looking for the table where usually you and the team sit, there they are, with Roze and Horangi, where's the giant? You look around just to see him sitting alone just with an apple and a protein bar, before you could even notice you're already in front of him.

- Ja? Can I help you?

He's not being rude but also not very kind, he's looking at you with a bothered look.

- Ah... No, well, I was wondering why are you here, everybody is eating together, over there.

- I like to be alone.

- oh okay, sorry...

You turned back and walked to the usual table, you discovered Roze and Horangi are more social, talking a little bit more than their colonel.

- Horangi, may I ask you something?

- go ahead.

- Your colonel... Is he always like that?

Horangi looked at König's direction, he stayed in silence for a moment then sigh and redirect his look to you.

- I shouldn't say this but he has social anxiety. That's why he always sits away, excuse me, I'll go to check on him.

He stood up and left, Roze interrupted your thoughts.

- They're good friends, don't worry. They're always together, well Doc, I hope your captain says the truth about you, take good care of us tomorrow.

She gave you a pat on the back and left, you continued the conversation with your team, keeping an eye on Horangi and König, then everybody went to sleep.

The morning arrived quickly, you're checking if you already have all you could possibly need. You're checking your gun, knifes, belt, you don't want problems with the KorTac guys. Ghost appeared behind you.

- Ready?

- Fuck! Ghost, you scared me. Yes, just wanted to check once more.

- You'll be alright Eagle... Just... Take care of you when you're with them, alright?

- Is Ghost worried about me?

You tried to joke with him but he was talking really serious.

- I'm serious, we don't know them, we don't know if they have other plans or something.

- Yes, Lt.

The trip on the plane was calmed, everybody reviewed the plan, it was simple, You and König will be in high ground, as snipers, while the rest eliminates enemies that are not visible for you, Roze and Horangi will be searching for information and the target, once they found him, You and König will join them, you will wait until they finish to obtain information, give medical attention to the target because Laswell needs him alive.

You and König started to walk to the highest ground you could find, you're just following König In silence until he decided to speak.

- Why Eagle?

- What?

- Why that codename? Eagle?

- Ah well, my father is a huge fan of that old band... The Alan Parsons project, do you know it?

- I don't think so.

- do you know that song... « I'm the eye in the sky, looking at you I can read your mind...»?

- nein

- Oh well, it's a good song, my dad sang it for me when I was afraid or anxious. When I joined the army I sang or hummed it all the time and everywhere, eventually everybody knew me for that and started to call me eagle because you know, the song and I'm a good sniper, I like it, it's a reminder that my dad still walks at my side, even if he's no longer here.

You looked at him and to your surprise he was observing you, too focused on your story, his eyes are blue and his look is soft, then he looked somewhere else.

- Good story. Umm I think this is a good place, what do you think?

- Sure, it gives us a good view of the place.

The radios interrupted the conversation. «Eagle, König, Are you ready?»

- Yes Cap, you have eyes in the sky.

You and könig started to shoot and it became a competition to see who would shoot down more targets. You started to laugh and so he did.

- Ha! And they said I couldn't be a sniper.

- God! You're a good sniper König, you're hard to beat.

- Danke, you're good too.

And there it is that look he gave you before, soft blue eyes but once more something interrupted you.

«König, we found him, bring the Doc, were waiting for you, he refuses to talk» «Do your magic Colonel!!» Horangi and Roze were on the radio.

He Stood up and offered you his hand to help you to stand up, you started to trot quickly, In silence, you noticed how tense he was, you arrived at the location, Ghost and Soap were waiting for you outside, König got inside the house, you were ready to follow but Ghost stopped you.

- What? I'll go with them, no? Where's Gaz and Price?

- You will wait here until they say you're allowed to go there.

You looked at both of them in confusion, soap simply nodded at you.

- trust us, eagle, you don't want to see that. The cap and Gaz will join us soon, they're blocking the communication in the zone.

A few minutes later you started to hear someone screaming «Please!! Please, I beg you to stop...» then silence again, you're worried but you know soap and ghost were right, maybe it's better to not see what is going on there. Almost an hour later Roze came out. «It's your turn Doc» before you could give a step inside the house she warned you «I have to say... it's not a nice view» she went back inside and you followed her, the smell of blood became stronger with every step you gave, before you got inside the room, you could hear some laughs, you opened the door just to find König cleaning his hands, while Horangi was cleaning a knife, next to them was a man, in a chair, he's unconscious but breathing, blood is everywhere, certainly Roze wasn't lying, it wasn't nice, but you made your best to look normal.

You kneeled down in front of the man, started to look for a serious injury that needed to be attended before some other, his face is hard to recognize, is bloody, puffy, purple, fresh cuts still bleeding, his fingers are broken and don't have nails anymore, there's deep cuts on his thighs, broken ribs, nose broken, you can bet he is deaf and toothless now, his ears are bleeding too, it's a mess, you don't know where to start.

Horangi decided to let you work, he left, there's only you and König, you can feel his eyes fixed on you.

"People don't understand how different things would have been if Hillary had won!"

This is true. Things would have been very different. Ideally we'd have fewer Trump clones running for office now. But Trump didn't make the GOP what it is. It's been like this. Forever.

Why are our choices Biden or (presumably) Trump? Liberals love to point the finger at the Republicans (while using the other hand to indicate the left is pretty close to just as much at fault, really), absolving their own party of all responsibility.

"It's this or fascism!" Okay, but why now? What have the fucking Democrats been doing while in office that it's gotten to this? Hmm? Feel like taking a look at Bill Clinton's presidency? And then maybe truly ask yourself why exactly his fucking wife thought we'd want her to be running the country.

I voted for Hillary (because what choice did I have), but the woman couldn't even pretend to support indigenous people protesting a pipeline on their land. People keep acting like she was this great progressive hero and she's not. She was not. And still, we fucking voted for her.

And liberals re-litigated the 2016 election constantly over the following four years, until Biden was elected. Then not a peep. They were content. Until 2022 midterms. And until now. Because now it's time to remind all of us to fall in line again, and they're so tired because they have to come out here again and lecture all of us leftists about our responsibilities to vote for their guy because we are all just too incapable of complex thought processes to understand the value of compromise and lesser evils and all that.

It's almost like the only activism y'all think is worth doing is beating leftists over the head with your "Vote Blue No Matter Who" stick. Which, fine. Just stop pretending you actually give a shit about anything else. Because we see you. And we see what you're not talking about. And when.

If the height of feminism to you was filling in the circle next to Hillary Clinton's name, here are some better targets for your messaging:

It's so fucking frustrating because it's clear y'all aren't listening to what folks on the left (people way smarter and with way bigger reach than me) are saying. And it reveals a lot of what the "Just Vote" bluster tries to conceal:

We're not real to you. We're not people whose needs and desires matter. We're there to be numbers to prop up your bulwark against fascism and a convenient scapegoat when you inevitably lose elections (because you will not win every time). But you don't want to make those defenses too strong because if the Other Guys aren't a constant threat, you might have to grapple with the ideas you've considered beneath you forever.

I'm going to vote. I've been voting for years. I'll continue voting. Never in my life have I told someone not to bother to vote. But I'm not doing it because of y'all. I'm doing it in spite of your messaging.

The chart that should scare Dems is this one

The votes of that 49%? They do not belong to you. You are not automatically owed them. And yes, maybe voting for Dems is in the best interest of that 49%, but there's nothing saying they will do so. People do shit against their own best interests all the time. And they sure as shit do things against the best interests of people in general.

Which means y'all have to convince them to want to vote for you. If you're the type of person whose mom said "Clean your room" and you immediately jumped to do so after thanking her for the reminder, I can see why the Democratic party's messaging is working out for you. I am not that person and I don't know a lot of people who are. So y'all are going to have to offer more than the constant demand if you're going to pick those folks up.

Not to be a doomer, but I think y'all are a lost cause at this point. You've been told the same thing over and over and refuse to adapt, so I have to assume you prefer things the way they are. Which means it's only a matter of time--and probably not a lot of time, really. You can't win every election forever and if that's the only plan, well...it sucks.

I'll tell you what, though: nothing would make me happier than the Dems proving me wrong here.

23.5 Ep 10

Last week we introduced a little angst via Sun possibly going to the US for a year, Alpha having some relatable struggles regarding her place in life and her family, and poor Aylin being accosted by everyone and dealing with it by smashing her food in Ton's face (no sadness for him, he deserved it).

Sigh. I should have known they'd do the towel falls and panic ensues thing. I can't pretend it doesn't make sense, lol. And we still have that gloriously sensual kiss from the end so I can't really complain.

Dinner with the folks. Poor Ongsa, she's so nervous, but Sun's family is so warm and lovely.

AW I like Sun's parents. I always love it when parents react positively in BLs and GLs. My favorite is still Akk's parents in The Eclipse, but He's Coming to Me was good too.

Okay. I don't know how other people feel about this, but I will say that I firmly believe in not changing your plans for a love interest. Do not switch colleges, do not change cities or reject a great job offer or decide not to go to the States to study in what is a golden opportunity for you. Do NOT. Especially not when you are a freaking teenager, my god.

I hope Luna feels bad. I love her but Aylin's my girl and she totally pushed her into a corner. I still do wonder if Aylin does want friends but she doesn't know how to handle people being genuinely nice to her, but she has to go at her own pace. And Ton was way out of line. Read the room, himbo. Some people don't want you all up in their face.

I don't know the more I thought about it the more annoying it got to me. I'm not really mad at anyone - they're all stupid kids tbh and I remember enough about being a stupid kid that I can give them some leeway, mostly because none of them meant any harm - but I do think that the appalled reaction was aimed at the wrong person in that situation.

I just want Aylin to be happy okay? Whatever that looks like for her.

You know, it would amuse me if Ton and Mawin wound up together after all of this. I don't think that's what's gonna happen but it would amuse me.

I still think that Ton only wants Charoen because she doesn't want him. I would love it if they don't end up together but I don't have that much hope.

Oh no. Please you two do not make her feel bad.

Oh Aylin.

Look at her face. I just have to say it, View is so damn good in this role.

"But we're friends" doesn't really cut it when she's spent most of her life being picked on, Charoen.

YES Bambam tell them. Genuinely, I do love that the girls are getting this kind of...gentle reminder from them that not everyone is the same and that just because you want someone to open up or talk to you doesn't mean that they are ready, and if they are never ready or never want to that's their choice. I do think that they're both pushy because they care about Aylin, but well. They needed to hear to slow their roll. And I do love the gentle way that Bambam lead them to that conclusion on their own.

Ugh Nida and Bambam are great. Now if they would just kiss, please.

Okay I know that this year separation sucks when you're young and in love. And that a lot can change. But also, maybe I'm just unromantic because I'd still do it. I also knew that Ongsa would not want to go with her, although my guess is that in the end she does.

Bambam and Nida! Bambam and Nida!

Right. I totally want them to get together I will cry if they don't but. But I am also really loving watching Bambam reach new oblivious heights.

I do wonder what all this looks like to Ongsa's parents. Literally every time they have a meal with these kids someone is having an issue.

Do NOT - DAMMIT SUN.

I'm sorry. I just don't think that it's romantic.

Yeah called this with Aylin. I think that I might have to think about this for a bit.

Oh Ton. This fucking guy.

And yes, you can make her smile and that's a good thing. Just stay out of her face.

FINALLY. YES BAMBAM YOU ARE THE DENSEST.

Aw that's a yes. NOW KISS. KISS KISS KISS.

Well that was cute. Methinks that even if the cards tell Bambam to stay far away she'll find a way to interpret them the way she wants, lol. Love that for her.

I actually kind of love that Ongsa is being the mature one here. And I agree with her. Because I really do feel that when you do something like that - give up on a dream because of a relationship - it will more often than not become a crack in that same relationship you were so desperate to preserve.

Does Ongsa think that her parents are gonna be upset that she and Aylin are in relationships with girls? Because they really do not seem to be bothered by the idea of Aylin and Luna at all.

Not that I agree with Sun doing it either.

I don't know. Like I said I have to sit on this one for a bit. I might have more to say (terrifying, I know). I might not. But this one will be on my mind for sure.

[petewentzssilkpress]

I said I wasn't gonna say anything because the whole situation is already so polarizing and there's so many things to think about as it conerns it all, but here are my two cents on what's going on with buck and chim right now.

Do I think buck was right in hiding what happened from chim? Yes and no. say yes because first and foremost, Maddie is his sister. For most of their lives, they've practically only had each other to depend on. They have been in similar situations before, albeit with the roles reversed. We saw in Buck Begins that Buck has been where Maddie is now, and I think maybe he was actually speaking from experience when he said that maybe she just needs time.

Of course, leaving your family because of postpartum depression and running away from your parents are not the same, but looking at the situations in the context of the Buckley siblings you can kind of see how he could have made that logical leap.

Also, I want you guys to consider the fact that Maddie has a habit of putting Buck's comfort and peace of mind above her own safety. Once again, in Buck Begins we were shown that even during the height of her abusive relationship, she still put Buck's interest before her own, and even while he was away she never really let him know how bad it got with Doug.

It's very likely that she did the same thing in this situation. We don't know what the phone call was like when she told him what happened with Jee and that she was leaving. There is a very real possibility that she tried to pass it off as her just needing a break, and not actually as her being in a fragile mental state. We already know that she felt guilty about being a burden to Chim and also about being a bad mother, so she might have pretended that things were fine in order to prevent any extra worries. Maybe Buck genuinely things she's more okay then she actually is, and that would be because she wanted him to think that.

And there's also the plain fact that she's his sister! And with all that Maddie has done for him, I see why he would want to do this one thing for her. As somebody that's extremely close to my sister as well, I would have kept quiet too (provided I was sure she wouldn't be a danger to herself ofc).

On the other hand... Will I excuse Chim for punching Buck? Also yes and no.

Man, Chimney straight up deserves to know about Jee. It's a simple as that. I know maddie doesn't "owe" anything to anybody like that as it concerns her own mental health, but at the end of the day he's her partner, and her coparent, and the father of her child, and given all they've been through together and all he's been through for her and just the plain fact that Jee is his actual blood, biological, first born daughter and his only child, I just think he deserved to know.

Aside from all the things I just mentioned , given Chimney's romantic history and Madney's overall history, it's obvious why he was as distraught as he was throughout the episode. Even though it all came from a place of fear, confusion and paranoia, his concerns in the beginning of the episode we're somewhat valid, especially given what had just happened with Harry and Athena.

And remember by this point, she had been gone for more than a week leaving absolutely no trace of where she could possibly be, so the stress was obviously going to be tremendous for him. Putting up with that kind of worry and anxiety for a whole week can turn anyone into a live wire, so it's honestly perfect the kind of understandable why upon hearing that Buck knew the answers to all of the questions that had been tormenting him for the past week, he lost his temper and just snapped. I think the punch was just the culmination of a whole week's worth of extreme stress and negative emotion finally breaking the camel's back.

I'm not really saying it was right, but sometimes people get frustrated, and I'm pretty sure chim was beyond that point.

I don't think there's any way they're going to let this conflict between them last. Buck probably understands Chim's perspective a little bit better after talking with Eddie, and and chimney is going to be in a much clearer head space after he finds Maddie. I think they're going to talk it out and everything is going to be okay between them eventually, but for now I find it a hard and also kind of unfair to pick a side.

The Enforcers: Part 4 (Geto Suguru x Fem!Reader)

synopsis: You're propelled to the heights of fame with your constant success with Suguru, but what goes up... must come down.

wc: 1.3k

tw: none (next part will be different)

masterlist

Success.

Your name and the word "success" are intertwined by the third month of your Kitsune career. With the help of Suguru, you're practically unstoppable, sniffing out criminals all over the city and bringing them out to face justice. Even the Leviathans come to admire Geto, who stands tall as redeemed and a big brother to many of the new recruits.

But even as you reach the height of your fame, there's a nagging feeling that sits in the back of your mind.

Same misery, but with a paycheck.

Same misery, but with a paycheck.

Same misery, but with a paycheck.

It's like a chant that haunts you in the middle of the night, and you lay awake most nights, thinking of escaping. But then the sun comes up, you rise from your bed, and you pretend that everything is okay for another eighteen hours.

Suguru notices your despondency and even mentions it over dinner, but you snap at him, telling him you were "fine", and leave him alone with the others. As you stalk off, you grumble to yourself and rub your temples, wondering when the feelings would subside. When you reach your barrack, you slide into your chair and begin your research for your current mission when you frown at your computer screen.

You always closed out the network of files when you left the room.

So why was the finder open?

And why was there a file sitting on your computer labeled "For Y/n"?

You click on the file hesitantly, knowing any wrong move could open a virus on your desktop, but your scanner doesn't pick up anything odd, and the file opens, revealing four documents, two videos, and two audio files.

All of them are labeled with your first and last name except for the audio files, which are labeled "One" and "Two".

You hesitate again. What is this pandora's box, you wonder internally. Should you even... your mouse drags to the first audio file and you click on it. Your sound is too low to hear the first part, so you rewind it and play it again. You hear the following words first:

"Hello, y/n," a robotic voice says, its tone flat and unmoved, and goosebumps break out across your skin. "You have shown great promise in your field as a Kitsune, and we know you feel empowered by your success. But there are some things you should know about the men and women you work for." You pause the audio file, heart thumping wildly in your chest as you consider the idea that this is either a test of loyalty or a cruel prank. Either way, you'd had enough.

You stand from your computer and walk around your room, covering your prickly flesh with clammy hands. Someone broke into your room to put files on your computer, addressed them to you, and made it seem like you were being watched by some outside source. But who would want to scare you? Who would--

"Y/n?" Suguru opens your door and gives you a look of deep concern, but you try your best to mask your look of fear. "Are you feeling okay?"

"I'm okay; I haven't been sleeping well," you admit, and Suguru nods, rubbing his neck nervously.

"I have something that could help you if you want. Just a sleep aid. We're given it when we start training to calm us before--"

"Sure." Geto disappears, then reappears with two pink pills.

"Take these right before bed. You'll be off to sleep in no time."

"Thanks," you reply, setting them on your bedside table and stretching. Suguru stands in your bedroom, looking at you for a second more. "I should get off to--"

"Right," he mutters, then leaves you in the room by yourself again.

_____________________________________________________________

But you don't take the pills.

Instead, you stay awake, looking at the computer screen from your bed, wondering just who would be daring enough to come into your space uninvited and place those... things on your desktop.

Curiosity eats at you for three more hours until finally, at sunup, you crack.

Keys rattle furiously under your fingertips as you type in your password and click on the first audio file yet again.

"Hello, y/n. You have shown great promise in your field as a Kitsune, and we know you feel empowered by your success. But there are some things you should know about the men and women you work for. If you wish to proceed in this endeavor, click on the first video. We know you have no reason to trust us, but we hope you will see this as a show of good faith and use the information for good. Reveal, don't conceal."

You drift over to the first video file, and a black screen comes up, the title words popping up moments later:

L/N, W. May 23. Project Kudzu Debrief.

Your father appears on the screen right after, his eyes looking dead into the camera. He's in his standard, antiquated Kitsune attire, with more hair and brighter eyes than you've ever seen. He's much younger; that you recognize instantly.

"Okay, Mr. L/n, go ahead and state your rank and case for the CSB."

"Mr. W. L/N, Kitsune, Project Kudzu."

"Thanks," a man offscreen mutters, then the sounds of flipping paper can be heard. "Now tell us about your project and what the results of it were."

"Um..." Your father shifts in his chair then rolls his neck around. "Project Kudzu is... or was, my bad." Laughs. "Project Kudzu was a ten-year effort concerning the relocation of lower-class citizens into rougher areas to produce Leviathan recruits. I spearheaded the effort with my research, and my partner, Leviathan C--" The name is bleeped out. "helped with the evictions and relocations."

"Okay," Rustling papers again. "And what were the results of this?"

"Exponential growth of the Leviathan enlistment, sir." Your father adjusts his glasses, nodding stiffly.

"Were those the desired results?"

"Yes, sir."

The screen goes black, and you stare at your open-mouthed reflection, shock flooding your veins. "Please watch the next video" pops up on your screen, and you click on it instantly, instinctively knowing who's next.

L/N, F. May 31. Project Redroot Debrief.

Your mother appears on screen, her cheeks plumper and figure fuller than it currently is. She's youthful, with long hair pinned into a bun and also in an antiquated Kitsune uniform.

"Name, rank, project," a female voice mumbles off-screen.

"Ms. F. L/N, Kitsune, Project Redroot."

"What were the aims of your project?"

"To relocate potential candidates for Kitsune potions into areas where large populations of Kitsune already reside."

"And your goal?"

"To increase Kitsune families and potential enlistment."

"How successful were you?" Your mother smirks at the camera, propping her chin upon her palm.

"How successful do you think I was?"

When the screen goes black, the taste of bile rushes into your mouth, and you rush to your bathroom, shoving a mouthful of toothpaste and your toothbrush onto your teeth. Something you can control, something you can control. But even your toothbrushing - which is normally a soothing habit - can't wipe away the look on your mother's face at her triumph. Project Kudzu... Project Redroot...

How could your parents be a part of something so sinister? Making the poor poorer and the elite... more elite?

These videos have to be fake, you tell yourself, circling back to the computer. But when you look up the metadata- which is neatly scrubbed of any trace of third parties - you see that they are in fact originals of the interview.

Finally, you take a look at the documents, the insignia and red letters "CONFIDENTIAL TS_CO" watermarked on the endless pages. TS_CO= Top Secret Clearance Only. This is above your paygrade, and exponentially so. But as you skim the redacted information, you see names, dates, your parent's names, their information, metrics, graphs, everything that you need to know that Project Redwood and Kudzu aren't fake.

They're real.

And they both happened right before you were born.

[katnissmellarkkk]

Andddd here’s my chappy three thoughts 🥳🥳🥳

Hmmm Katniss saying that her mother has a dress made of velvet is actually really interesting because it shows that Mrs. Everdeen Lily-Rose really was well-er off before she married Katniss’ father Hunter.

Or did she get the velvet dress from Maysilee? Oh well, who knows.

Aww, Katniss’ nervous habit of touching soft things repeatedly to soothe herself 🤧🤧.

“Crying is not an option. There will be more cameras at the train station.” — someone tell that to Peeta 🤣🤣🤣.

Okay I gotta stop picking on Primmers, I know but like. How small is she that she sits on Katniss’ lap like a toddler but then in the following year is the same height as her? Doesn’t matter I know but still I wonder.

Okay so Mrs. E is the doctor for the people of the Seam? Idk I never thought about this but who does people like Peeta or Madge or Delly go to if they’re sick or hurt? Is there a still running apothecary shop that Katniss never mentions? Are her grandparents still running the family biz?

Also okay, I gotta stop having so many thoughts on all the lil details I know but like. Katniss says here she’s familiar with the herbs her mother doesn’t grow on her own so like a). Katniss is more of a healer than she leads on because no average person knows what kind of plant is medicinal and b). Her mother is just growing herbs and Katniss never mentions it again in the whole series? Or I just missed it.

Okay imma move on from this one singular paragraph but Gale and her made a pact a year ago that they’ll supply each other’s family with game if they were to be reaped... I’m feeling like their close friendship is probably only one year old then? Idk. Just my interpretation.

Honestly I love Katniss getting mad at her mom here.

She’s sixteen, for God’s sake, of course she’s angry at what her mother’s illness put her through.

Also I lowkey like that her mother got mad back because that lady in the movies had zero personality.

“Boys who are two to three times my size.” She sounds so little, omg 🥺🥺🥺.

“I don’t care if we’re rich, I just really want you to come home” 🤧🤧🤧😩😩😩😩 okay Primmers, you got me here.

“the Peacekeeper is at the door, signaling our time is up, and we're all hugging one another so hard it hurts and all I'm saying is ‘I love you. I love you both.’ And they're saying it back...” this is so sad leave me be 😫😫😫😫

Katniss is burying her face in a pillow to block out her emotions this is too much for me 🥵🥵🥵

Omg I forgot Peeta’s father visits Katniss 😅

Why does he visit Katniss?

She describes Peeta’s father as a “big, broad-shouldered man.” And then describes Peeta as stocky. Idk the comparison of the two descriptions has always led me to think Peeta is gonna be a big dude when he grows up like his father. This made no sense and had zero correlation but I thought, so I said it, no regrets

Oh he brought her cookies 🤧

WAIT WAIT WAIT. I just had a new thought, y’all. What if instead of the baker bringing cookies being a thing he does for all tributes, what if he’s bringing the cookies because Peeta asked him to, because he made them and wants to give them to Katniss and knows she’ll never accept / trust them coming from her competition? What if that’s the real reason the baker visited her in the first place? Because Peeta asked him to? This was such a shipper comment but idc, no regrets, remember?

Omg Peeta’s father is just mute 🤣🤣🤣

Between an abusive, angry mother and a mute for a father, the Mellark brothers must have had a fairytale of a childhood 😅😅😅😅.

But seriously #PoorPeetaMyBaby

Aww Peeta’s father is gonna help keep Prim alive 😭

Omg I just remembered he’s her mother’s ex boyfriend. Haidon Mellark, as I named him in my fics.

That one fic where he was thought to be Prim’s real father is just playing now in my head, rent free.

But does Katniss not realize that he may be offering to help Prim as a favor to her? Like she claims Prim is just so wonderful people adore her but there’s like zero evidence in the text that make her endearing? Okay I need to turn this bus around, I need to find a love for Primmy Deen.

Madge is not one for preamble apparently. No “hi, how are you? I’m sorry you’re gonna die? What will your last meal be?” Just right to “here, wear this family heirloom of mine, k thanks.”

I like that Madge had to kiss her cheek for Katniss to realize they were friends 😅😅😅.

I remember always loving her and Gale’s hug here. I’ve always felt like it was platonic, but especially when I first read the books and had zero preference one way or another for Gale or Peeta, I really liked how she said even with nothing romantic between them, “when he opens his arms, I don’t hesitate to go to him” or something I’m paraphrasing ok I’m lazy

Also though, this is the first time they’ve ever hugged? Idk why that surprises me? It shouldn’t because where is a hug gonna fit into a hunting trip 😅🤣😂 “I just caught a deer!” “let’s celebrate with a hug!”

I like that Katniss remembers how her father even failed to make a good bow sometimes. Random, I know.

I like that the Capitol weren’t entertained by the people freezing to deaths because it wasn’t bloody enough 🤭🙃

“How different can it be [to kill a human vs an animal]?” She’s about to find out, Gale 🥺. And when she comes back you won’t understand 🙄😔

What did Gale want to say before the Peacekeepers dragged him away?

I used to think it was a confession of love but I’m actually sure it wasn’t now? Just the wording “remember I-“ doesn’t sound like it, considering he never confessed anything prior to her coming home.

I’m assuming now he was just gonna give her some more advice to stay alive 🤷🏼‍♀️. Clearly if it were relevant it would have made its way to the others books.

Aww, she’s never been inside a car before 😭😭. I didn’t even know they had cars in this universe but okay.

I notice though how she says “In the Seam, we travel on foot.” So is Peeta just riding his trolly down the street every day with the other merchants then? 🤣

Peeta just openly crying on camera 😅😢.

I like how Katniss is like “ooo is this an act to get sponsors?” when in reality Peeta’s like “no, I’m just a soft and genuine boy ™️”

Omg I just realized this totally goes along with Peeta’s thing later on “I want to die as myself”

He’s refusing to hold back his emotions because he thinks he’s doomed to die and he’s already refusing to pretend to be or feel something ingenious.

But a Johanna mention in book 1 chapter 3 woohoo 🥳🥳🥳 also Katniss comparing Jo and Peeta is kind of like foreshadowing of their shared torture in book 3.

Omg she just called Peeta broad-shouldered and strong. 🥰🥰🥰 my headcanon for his post-canon body is confirmed

Also why does Katniss keep allotting his strength to carrying bread trays around? Are they heavy? Why have I never once heard of people who carry bread trays being strong? I always thought Peeta was really strong because he learned to fight in order to defend himself against his mother but that’s probably wrong.

But if a mother is abusive, it can lead to one of the kids being physically violent as well and we know Peeta isn’t but he has two older brothers I’m gonna cut myself off now but I think we all smelled what I just stepped in.

Also I just find it so fascinating now how she regards herself vs Peeta here.

When talking about herself, she says, “The competition will be far beyond my abilities. [...] Oh, there'll be people like me, too. People to weed out before the real fun begins.” But when she talks about Peeta, she immediately says, “It would take an awful lot of weeping to convince anyone to overlook him.”

It’s just funny how she discounted herself right from the start but thought he was a real contender and then come to find out, Peeta believes it’s the exact opposite 😂🙃. They’re both so stupid I can’t even take it.

Wait did they actually give the location of the Capitol and the location of District Twelve in today’s world? And I just overlooked it? Brb I’m gonna go to google maps right quick.

Okay so basically what I gathered is the Capitol is probably in New Mexico and District Twelve is somewhere between Kentucky and Alabama. Irrelevant I know. But just a reminder now to everyone that Katniss and Peeta are literally speaking, crying and screaming in thick, backwoods southern accents.

It’s literally so sad how everything for Katniss is about food. Like every motive she has, every action she does is about preventing starvation ever again. 🤧🤧🤧

First mockingjay mention 🤭🤭.

“My father was particularly fond of mockingjays” 😭😭😭 I bet he was 😭😭😭😭

We always go on and on about how Katniss is a mockingjay or her children are mockingjays but Katniss herself here says mockingjays represent her father imma cry, y’all 😫😫😫😫

“It’s like having a piece of my father with me, protecting me” shut up shut up shut up shut up

Awww, Katniss has never had food like this before 😔😔😔

Neither has Peeta 🤧🤧

Katniss disliking the way Effie put the two kids from the year before down and so began to eat like a pig just to prove her point, is so her. And the beginning of her fighting for the underdog.

Omg the Rue introduction 🥺🥺🥺

Bahahahaha the commenters calling District Twelve backwards but charming 😅😅😅 they really are the hillbilly district

Peeta’s unexpected laugh 🥺🥺🥺 I love you, baby

“He was drunk. He’s drunk every year.” “Every day.” Katniss and Peeta are already finishing each other’s sentiments and teaming up to get on Effie’s nerves I love them so much 😍

Oh my God, Effie, you selfish jerk. They’re kids having fun for like one second, no need to throw in their faces they’re gonna die if the drunk won’t help them. I’d forgotten why I don’t really like the book version of her. I actually prefer her as comedic relief in the movies.

I actually just realized I really dislike Effie Trinket, I hope they never speak to her again Post-Mockingjay. Idc how you’re raised you don’t need to treat teenagers who are sentenced to a probable death badly just because they laughed at you 🙄🙄🙄😡😡😡😡. They didn’t even really laugh at her, she’s just annoying and awful, we don’t stan Effie in this household.

Okay, that’s all for my thoughts on chapter three! Until next time, y’all ! If anyone actually read this long mess of a post.

~

Waking up the next day, you were filled with a new spark of motivation, helping you make the decision of going to today's classes. In hopes that you might stumble upon Jungkook, even though you know that it only happens once in a blue moon, you get ready for the day and head out to your university campus. You only have to walk about 20 minutes from your home to your college building which was no big deal, except for having to look at the same old desolate city every time you walk out your door. Same old bleak surroundings, same old dreary people, same old sense of isolation. Your town was known for it's drugs, gangs and it's riddance of joy. You grew up here, this is what was always familiar to you, what you've always known, so it was no big deal, until you had to move out and live on your own. It all hit you once you had no family, friends or anything to distract you from this community. You knew that until you got a degree and finally finished school, you were stuck here.

Unfortunately not stumbling upon Jungkook, you come back home and settle into this oh-so-familiar routine. Wake-up. Pass time. Go to classes. Study. Sleep. And the circle would start again, yet you missed something about it. It was nostalgic to your highschool days where everything was just a little less complicated. At least now you have more freedom right? But with freedom comes responsibility, and that's something noone wants to take care of.

Day by day you get on fine, anticipating your next meeting with Jungkook, which oddly is on the same day, in the same place at the same time. You're not complaining, the view of the setting sun is a scene you will never get sick of, so you agreed and before you know it, you're heading down to the playground, down the same streets, to the same school, turning the same corner. Low and behold Jungkook, swinging there gently, letting the breeze influence the movements of his hair and clothes. This time the crisp leaves beneath your shoes give away you approaching, he notices and turns around with his infectious smile once again. This time you don't sit next to him, but come up to stand right in front, hands in your jacket pockets and smiling down at him. You have no idea where this new found confidence spurred in you but you decided to finally show initiative and show him that there is more to you than just this bashful girl.

He evidently tries to hide the confusion that's running through his mind, but does so badly, so before he can wonder for too long, you speak up.

'Where are we going?' you simply ask, thoughts rushing back to the last time you were here, him telling you he'll take you places you'll love.

Reading your mind, he shoots and excited grin and gets up himself, standing a lot closer to you than you were expecting. From this perspective, the height difference between you is so apparent it's almost laughable, having to crane your neck to look at him directly. You step back before the situation would get uncomfortable.

'I was thinking' he pauses 'that it should be a surprise' he states with a brash smile that has you wondering what he's up to. But you comply nevertheless and without another word he leads the way. Walking for a little less than a minute, strolling your way beside him at a leisurely pace, in no rush or urgency, he asks.

'You have any friends down here?' A seemingly forward question, but you know that he's only making conversation.

'Hah' you breathily laugh to yourself 'Haven't had proper friends since like, middle school' you confirm. It's not like you were bitter about it, you actually cherished not having to be duty-bound by other people, which was almost always the case for you in the past.

'What about you?' you innocently ask back, thinking that it's only appropriate to ask back. You could see a little hesitance in his eyes, immediately making you think you shouldn't have asked.

'Yeah' followed by a pause 'But they're no one you need to be concerned about' he replies rather harshly, taking you by surprise, this being the first time he even remotely acted up like this.

'Why not?' you answered, irritated, in a vaguely bothered state that he replied so rudely. Though you immediately take anything you said back after you hear him sigh loudly and not even spare a glance towards your direction, but only digging his hands further into his pockets and quirking his lips as if he's stopping himself from saying something. You both let it go and continue on walking in a slightly tense, awkward silence. You noticed Jungkook now walking somewhat faster, so that your significantly shorter legs have to take longer strides to keep up with him. Your already agitated mood is becoming more agitated with every step you're taking and you break.

'Hey' you stop walking and he takes a step ahead of you and turns 'Why the heck are we walking so fast?' You half expect him to snark at you again, but he just looks blankly at you with his dough eyes.

'The view will be better if we get there before sunset' he declares as blankly as his expression appears. You feel your annoyance melt when you realise he's only trying his best for you. Feeling completely dumb, you get flustered and look down, walking ahead, failing to notice an endearing smirk playing on his lips, admiring your short temper. He follows behind you, quickly catching up to your brisk pace. Seeing you still have your head down, he speaks up to break the quiet that was created between you.

'You know where I'm taking you yet?'

You shake your head no

'Good' He playfully says with another smirk which you catch this time, and you let a slight smile pass your lips too, which he in turn notices as well. He's thankful that he was able to diffuse the situation.

You don't realise you almost lose Jungkook when he swiftly turns a corner, abruptly halting you in your steps so that you end up walking behind him.

'We're almost there' he says excitedly, looking over his shoulder to see if your still following him. Checking out your surroundings, you can't help but notice how oddly scenic this narrow street is. Like everywhere else in the city, it was coloured with street art, but it was like no graffiti you've seen before; It's art, not just any old scribbles made by the annoying young kids from the street, it was satisfying to look at. You've never been to this part of town, and to think something as cool as this was a 10 minute walk from your place. Because Jungkook seems to know where he is and where he's heading, you decide to ask him about it.

'Who does all of this art?' you phrase, quickly catching up so you're beside him again.

'It's usually the street kids that come up with this stuff' he explains with just as much amusement in his eyes as you. 'It's pretty neat isn't it?' he smiles at you, not expecting an answer, seeing that you were clearly in awe of this place. In your daydreams and looking around, you lag behind Jungkook once again, until you suddenly crash into his back as he stops Infront of a door to a little run down looking hotel. Letting out a little 'jeez' you come back to reality, realising that this is your destination. He gently places one of his hands on your shoulder and leans in to whisper to you.

'Just go along with what I'm doing okay?' he quietly tells you. Being this close to him you practically smell the shampoo he uses, which you swear smells like apple. It takes a lot in you to not internally go crazy at the close proximity, which you know your probably over analysing but you manage to nod. He turns back and heads inside leaving you to follow.

Contrary to the outside of the building, you are greeted with a lovely spacious lobby area, decorated with paintings and sofas that give it a modern finish. Before you can look around for too long Jungkook steps to the reception counter and speaks to the man in uniform behind it.

'Sorry, I just seem to have lost the card to my room, I was wondering if I could get a spare?' he nonchalantly lies to the man. Your eyes go slightly wide at what crazy idea comes into Jungkooks mind to lie like this, but his casualty to the situation comforts you a little.

'Oh, Absolutely no problem, I just need a full name' the man declares, and you were sure that Jungkook didn't know what he was doing and was going to get caught any second. Instead, he quickly answers.

'Michael Miller' he says sternly, not provoked by the receptionists question. You don't know where he has got this name from, or what he's up to, all you know is he told you to play along and pretend this is normal. The receptionist types away something at his computer and then turns to you.

'And you are…' in a quick panic you look at Jungkook for reassurance in hope that he'll do something about this, but he looks just as panicked as you. He hurriedly twists his head back to the man.

'Yeah, um, she's my girlfriend' he exclaims a little too loudly and uneasily, but the man doesn't seem to notice and goes back to typing at his computer screen. You turn a newly found shade of crimson as your eyes widen, looking at Jungkook like he just did something unspeakable. Jungkook ever so slightly tilts his head in your direction mouthing an 'I don't know' with a small shrug at you. He still looks vaguely panicked and apologetic, but he's trying his hardest to not give his identity away.

The receptionist turns away from his computer and hands Jungkook a card with a polite smile.

'Thank you' Jungkook says mannerly back and then heads for the corridor that evidently holds the elevator entrances. While all this is happening, your cheeks are burning a bright shade of red, even though you know Jungkook only said that so that you could get through. Something about it won't let your cheeks simmer down. If Jungkook noticed this, he chose not to comment on it but to silently step into the elevator after you and press the last floor button. The doors close and you both let out a gust of breath as if you haven't been breathing for the last five minutes. Knowing your out of hearing range of anyone on the ground floor, you're shook back to the actual situation at hand.

'Where the actual hell are we going Jungkook?' You ask as if you haven't got a clue in the world, which is correct. You have so many questions about what just happened.

'Who the heck is Michael Miller? How are you so casual at this? Is this illegal? What i-' you babble on until he interrupts you.

'It's fine y/n. Seriously. You'll see soon enough' He reassures you, no smile this time, but with a light tone.

The elevator doors gradually open, showing a view of a barren hall with room doors lining the walls. Jungkook starts walking ahead of him down the corridor, you trailing behind him. He stops at a door with a 'staff only' plaque drilled onto it.

'You know where we going now?' he shoots a bold smile at you before he reaches out to twist the handle and slinks inside. You roll your eyes partially at yourself, but also at him when you're left to trust his actions and accompany him. The door is lightly closed behind you and you are left in a very dimly lit space.

'Hey. Over here' you hear Jungkook loudly whisper to you as he's clambering on to a low extension of the wall. He stretches to his fullest height and pushes a panel of the ceiling away to reveal the open air. He jumps and grabs onto the edge, somehow managing to pull himself up and onto the roof of the building.

'Come on' he gestures to you as you scramble onto the wall extension after him. He reaches down so you can take his hand and for some stupid reason you get flustered again, the blood rushing back to your cheeks. You take his hand nonetheless, instantly noticing how slightly calloused but soft the skin of his palms is. Trying so hard to push the thoughts to the back of your head, you jump and grab onto the ledge with your other hand. You succeed in climbing onto the top with Jungkooks considerable help and you instantly drop on the ground with a thump, having to catch your breath. The cool evening air around you helps in chilling you back to a normal temperature after not only burning hot from embarrassment but also from getting on top of this goddamn thing.

Jungkook lays there with you, a reasonable distance away, but not breathless. He's observing the gorgeous cloudless sky above him.

'Did you tire yourself out a bit?' He cheerily teases, tilting his head straight to your direction. You lightly chuckle, not turning your head. You're looking up at the sky, but you are hyper aware of Jungkooks gaze resting on your face for a moment too long, before he catches himself and looks back up, lifting himself so he's in a sitting position. You sit up too, as he reaches over and swings the panel back over the opening, so that no one notices it was touched.

You steadily get up into a standing position, letting out an uncomfortable groan as you feel your muscles already aching. Jungkook still being in a sitting position, you step over to the short wall surrounding the perimeter of the rooftop out of interest of what you'll see, and as you very carefully look over, you wince, chills run down your spine at the incredible distance you are from the pavements below. Observing your reaction from the ground, Jungkook wholly laughs at you.

'wait' he mumbles, swiftly getting up and jogging up to you. As if you didn't have enough blushing this night already, he offers his hand to you again, seemingly unbothered, with a shine in his eyes, reflecting the view before you. You reach out for his hand and place it on his. In reassurance, he squeezes it lightly and and with a quirk of his head, motions for you to step up on the wall. You think he's freaking insane, making you get up on it, so you just look at him directly, kinking your eyebrows upward as if to say he's crazy. But seeing his face in excitement and anticipation, you steady a little bit.

'I'll be right here' And with that he lifts up his hand, after a second more hesitation, you lean and step up onto the curb. Although you're so shaky you could literally collapse any second, you can't deny the view from up here is astonishing. This time round, the sky is glowing beautiful flush pink tones, fading into lilac, before disappearing into the landscape of sky scrapers and office buildings. Illuminating the city, you could make out streetlights, traffic lights and windows, indicating the business of the people. Although the stars weren't out yet, it was quite dark because of the time it took you to get here, but nonetheless, you couldn't have imagined something prettier than this.

Jungkook hastily hops onto the wall beside you, so that your arms are brushing against eachother. He admires the scenery for a few moments.

'This is so beautiful' he says in a hushed tone, as if he's too breathtaken to speak any louder.

'Here' He starts, looking down at your still locked hands 'This will be better'. He removes his hand from yours and places it back, intertwining his fingers with yours. You let out a slight nervous laugh, making it out to be not obviously an embarrassment reflex. And you look at him for a second or two, or three, as he's beaming a smile at you, angel-like in the glow of the sun once again.

Oh hell no wait a minute you guys got to respond from Las vegas. Oh no you guys want to hear this? I asked okay how are you guys going to get me back into Las Vegas Pat #pat ?

POV: Star Walker

George was in a mood today. I don’t really know why or how, but when I woke up I could sense it. We’re at his parents, so I didn’t want to start a possible fight and them overhearing. George's parents are still yet to decorate for the holidays, due to Mrs. Harrison’s illness. George went out as I volunteered myself to help his parents, so Mrs. Harrison didn’t have to do much. She sat on the couch and created the live garlands with lights. I stood on a chair with tippy toes to follow the same height as Mr. Harrison, on a stepping stone later to put the garlands up.

“Y’know, it’s great to have someone to help this year,” Mr. Harrison slightly grunted, trying to tie the cut plant to the painted over hooks.

“Do you want me to get it?” I asked, still pretending to hold up my side so Mr. Harrison doesn’t feel like he’s taking a long time.

"No, No, I got it, but thank you," Mr. Harrison smiled as he finally got the hook, then looked at me, "You can put your side up now."

"Oh, okay," I just let go and Mrs. Harrison crackled up as she realized I'd been holding up a tied up garland for Mr. Harrison's pride. Mr. Harrison sighed as Mrs. Harrison was having trouble making one of the livestock decorations. I walked over to her and sat next to her, "Do you need help?"

"Yeah, for the love of god, I can't remember how to do this," Mrs. Harrison showed me the mistletoe. Due to her cancer, she has memory blanks, and I could tell she's getting frustrated with not memorizing.

"Here," I carefully placed my hands over hers and gently took the mistletoe out of her hands and looked at the supplies in front of me, "I haven't made a mistletoe in years. Back in London, we just bought fake decorations since we're in Liverpool for most of December."

The ends of the plant have some shinny stuff dried on the tip of the steam to preserve the plant for the decorating season. I put all the mistletoe together and tied it with this little rope to hold it together. Which I left a little axcess, then made a loop hole for hanging it. The berries are more pinkish, closer to white then red. I found this sparkly ribbon. I wrapped the ribbon around and hot glued the one end to the other, then made a perfect decor bow and hot glued that to where the two ends are overlapping.

"It looks so beautiful! Thank you dear," Mrs. Harrison smiled as she patted my shoulder. I smiled with a hint of sorrow. I used to come over for the holidays here oftly a lot growing up. Anywhere was better than my home due to Nancy's abuse. I always remember Mrs. Harrison humming whatever the lads were playing as she put the decorations together, so when Mr. Harrison came home, all he had to do was put them up. Now, this woman, who I might add I highly look up to, has a tumor in her brain. She can't remember how to do it. I would see the frustration and sadness in her eyes, too, which made me feel even worse.

"Where does this go?" I asked the two, "My memory is a bit fogged, I haven't been in Liverpool for christmas time in roughly two years."

"I'll take it," Mr. Harrison smiled as he looked at it and smiled, "You did really well."

"Thank you," I smiled.

"Y'know, your a good one, I think your the only one in this family who's willing help us with decorations," Mr. Harrison moved his ladder to put the mistletoe up, "Lou is in American and flies back day before, Harry and Peter has wives and children and they're all busy and George is always busy with the things in London."

"London is always chaotic," I rubbed my arm, feeling a bit guilty since recently George has been busy with me since my stabbing from my ex.

"Woola," Mr. Harrison put my creation up and the bow twinkled with the lights.

"Oh it's just beautiful! Thank you for making it!" Mrs. Harrison was in awe of it as I felt my heart warm up with the feeling of putting a smile on her face. Not going to lie, I felt a little warm on the inside knowing after so many years with so many partners, I'm finally accepted by my partner's parents. George came back not too long after, he forced a smile on his parents to make it seem like he was okay, then ran up the stairs. I excused myself and followed him up. I was a bit hesitant to barge in, so I just knocked on his door.

"Who is it?" George asked.

"Santa," I quickly responded, using jokes as an instant instnict.George opened the door, and gave me a look.

"I think your too short... and skinny... and blonde to be santa," George looked up and down at me, "And a woman. Very beautiful woman, I might add."

"Hey the jolly old fat man can be beautiful," I crossed my arms as George chuckled. I smiled at his mood change, "Why were you in a mood earlier?"

"No reason," George blocked me as I tried to walk in, "Don't go in there."

"Why?" I raised an eyebrow.

"Because," George acted weird.

"Is my present in there?" I smirked.

"No! Don't go in," George sounded a bit like his mood had started to creep back.

"Are you sure you weren't in a mood?" I asked again.

"I'm fine," George started to be more shutting off as I sensed I should stop before I push it.

"Fine," I muttered as I walked off, a little annoyed.

Later...

I decided to go to Venessa's for dinner. I left George at his parents. We just took takeout, nothing really big, but soon as I got back I saw George in the living room playing around with his guitar.

"You left without me," George glued his eyes to the strings.

"You could've met up with me," I took off my shoes and coat. I walked over and gave him a kiss on the jawline, "I wasn't pushing you in a mood."

"I'm sorry for being in a mood," George put the guitar on the ground as I started to sit on the couch he moved me on top of his lap as I giggled.

"It's alright, as long as you tell me why," I moved his hair.

"I was pissed because I found your present for me and I wanted to out present you," George pouted.

"Fuck, now I have to get you a new present!" I groaned.

"No you don't," George chuckled at my grown. I sighed then felt something in my pocket. I quickly glanced without George noticing, and saw a little piece of mistletoe that most likely fell in my pocket earlier. I tucked the mistletoe in my right sleeve and wrapped my arms around him, then moved my right arm and made the plant over the two of us.

“Look up,” I smirked as George was a bit confused but did what I said and saw the mistletoe.

“I guess that means we have to kiss now,” George chuckled.

“Mmhm,” I hummed and gave a kiss on his cheek then George looked down and kissed me on the lips.
