maeve bradley and felix potter.
❛ did i hear your voice drop almost to a whisper there when you called her a ' little ball of annoyance ' ? pretty sure i did . ❜ she laughed , her teasing tone accompanied by the bright sound , as she followed felix's gaze to the kitchen and back . ❛ i remember when she was just a little kid . she was so cute she could make the angels cry , it's no wonder your parents didn't care what kind of cacophony she was making . ❜ intrigued at the mention of his elusive older brother , her eyebrows raise over her cup as she takes another sip , nodding along enthusiastically . ❛ no , yeah , that sounds amazing ! does he have a permanent spot anywhere yet ? sounds like something me and the girls might like , i'd love you to come with us so i can FINALLY set you up with one of my friends . ❜ her casual way of probing into his love life and avoiding hers . ❛ you ? staying out of trouble ? now i know you don't exactly seek it out , but staying out of it isn't really your thing either . are you lying to me , felix ? ❜

reply. matteo delvaux and serena alderidge.
he  chuckles  ,  with  serena’s  insistence  on  keeping  all  of  her  secrets  as  far  away  from  him  as  possible  being  a  stark  reminder  of  just  what  had  happened  to  them  .     ❛  you  never  change  ,  serena  .  ❜     the  words  come  out  unsettlingly  neutral  ,  an  abundance  of  confusion  lingering  in  the  air  over  whether  that  was  meant  to  be  a  compliment  or  insult  .  to  be  honest  ,  matteo  didn’t  know  either  .  it’s  not  like  she  cared  regardless  .
❛  i  know . ❜ he says , in reply to the compliment she paid him . he watches her , lifeless eyes taking in the details of her face that had both changed and stayed the same since he had last seen her . it would've been easy for him to accept the compliment with vigour , but instead he stayed silent . his puts his hands in his pockets , alcohol doing well to subdue the feeling of her hand on his chest as his posture only continued to increase in confidence . anything he couldn't feel on the inside , he could make up for on the outside . ❛ what made you come back ? ❜

reply. remy ramos and corazón sevilla.
he  laughs  ,  a  simultaneously  airy  yet  full  feeling  filling  the  air  as  he  did  so  ,  looking  down  at  her  with  a  gaze  full  of  adoration  .     ❛  mi  sol  ,  mi  luna  ,  mi  estrellas  ...  i’d  plan  a  million  somethings  for  your  birthday  .  even ... ❜ with a playful look on his face , his hands go to the hem of his shirt , wiggling it with false sexiness as if he were trying to prevent himself from revealing a well - kept secret . ❛ letting you see the goods a little bit early . ❜ remy didn't tend to make a fool of himself often ( it was hard to when most of your peers revered you anyway ) , but if there even a chance it might continue to keep cora's mind firmly off of her parents , he would do it . he hears a familiar sound from inside the house , amusement failing to hide itself on his face . ❛ wanna' walk ? if i flash this cute smile to the cashier at the diner we'll get free milkshakes and we won't have to come back until after delilah's finished yelling at cole . ❜

her   eyebrow   arches   in   both   confusion   and   curiosity   with   theo’s   newfound   knowledge   of   hair   coloring   and   his   attention   to   the   box   of   dye   in   his   hands.   anicka   presses   her   lips   against   each   other,   trying   to   prevent   the   pathetic   smile   from   forming   and   ease   the   butterflies   on   her   stomach   from   such   a   simple   and   yet   meaningful   act.   “   letting   the   blue   fade   to   a   lighter   shade   is   a   good   idea,   ”   she   starts,   feigning   chillness   by   pretending   to   read   from   the   box   in   his   hand,   “   then   after   it,   i   could   go   with   two   routes   :   dye   it   green   and   let   the   blue   be   the   base   of   it,   or   dye   it   orange   because   it   cancels   out   …   and   i   have   never   done   orange,   so   !!   ”
anicka   pushes   his   face   lightly   as   he   teases   her,   mocking   his   words.   “   i   thought   it   was   obvious,   haven’t   i   made   that   clear   yet   ??   ”   she   steaks   her   tongue   out   like   a   child,   before   pulling   herself   up   to   sit   on   the   bathroom   counter.   if   a   second   more   had   passed   before   she   looked   back   at   theo,   anicka   would   have   missed   his   smirk   faltering   and   would   have   thought   she   had   successfully   distracted   him   from   his   worries   …   but   that   wasn’t   the   case.
she   pulls   him   through   the   hem   of   his   shirt   and   places   him   between   her   legs.   with   the   amount   of   time   spent   with   theo,   anicka   had   learned   that   sometimes   to   get   the   ball   going,   she   should   be   the   one   kicking   it   with   a   question   …   especially   if   it   was   about   something   theo   wasn’t   proud   of.   she   puts   her   hands   on   his   chest   and   asks:   “   did   you   yell   at   her   ??   ”

even   in   his   feverish   state,   jett   could   tell   something   he   had   said   made   historia   uncomfortable.   at   this   point   in   their   relationship   and   the   reminiscence   memories   of   their   childhood   friendship,   the   boy   had   a   PhD   on   the   girl   and   her   little   ways   and   whims,   so   even   in   his   feverish   state   and   not   remembering   his   own   words,   he   was   still   able   to   take   notice   of   her   sudden   and   subtle   shift.   his   hand   raises   to   his   forehead,   interlacing   his   fingers   with   hers   and   bringing   them   down   to   the   duvet.
“   there’s   some   in   the   bathroom   cabinet,   ”   he   sighs   the   answer,   free   hand   reaching   to   put   a   strand   of   hair   behind   her   ear,   “   but   i   took   two   of   them   a   few   minutes   before   you   came,   so   maybe   it   just   didn’t   kick   it   off   still,   ”   a   small   shrug   of   shoulders,   pouting   his   lips   and   giving   her   pleading   eyes,   “   come   on,   just   lay   down   and   let’s   watch   it.   if   i   don’t   get   better   soon,   i   will   do   anything   and   everything   you   tell   me   to.   ”

callahan & odette // @seraphicists​​
Tumblr media
there   are   very   few   things   in   this   world   that   callahan   felt   truly   passionate   about.   not   I’m   a   cynical   I   hate   everything   type   of   way   because   he   enjoyed   most   things   life   had   to   offer,   but   real   passion   was   rare.   he   was   passionate   about   claudia   and   riley,   soccer   and   now   his   secret   relationship   with   his   coach’s   daughter.   everyone   who   met   callahan   assumed   the   guy   had   his   whole   life   together.   he   seems   confident   on   the   outside   but   the   truth   is,   he   never   really   felt   sure   of   himself.   meeting   odette   at   this   certain   time   in   his   life   truly   felt   like   fate   for   the   athlete.
practice   had   ended   about   an   hour   ago   and   everyone   had   already   left   for   the   day.   callahan   stayed   behind   to   kick   the   ball   around   and   practice   some   kicks.   he   was   pleasantly   surprised   when   he   saw   a   familiar   figure   walking   towards   him   on   the   field.   a   boyish   grin   he   didn’t   even   try   to   hide   occupied   his   sharp   features.   he   had   to   be   careful   however   because   he   wasn’t   sure   if   his   coach   was   following   behind.   “   what   are   you   doing   here ?”   he   couldn’t   hide   the   excitement   in   his   tone   and   he   had   hoped   that   if   coach   was   here   that   he   didn’t   hear   callahan’s   blatant   excitement   over   seeing   odette.

“   that’s   not   the   only   thing   i   will   break,   cariño,   ”   a   saccharine   smile   flashes   on   her   glossed   lips,   before   annoyance   appears   again   on   her   features   like   it   often   did   when   he   pressed   her   buttons   with   his   overly   charming   and   yet   dickish   personality.   if   the   conversation   over   the   phone   hadn’t   broken   her   heart,   she   would   have   bitten   the   hook,   and   continued   with   their   long   game   of   outsmarting   each   other   but   at   this   point,   she   didn’t   have   the   energy   to   do   so   ;   corazón   just   wanted   some   comfort   and   remy,   as   he   often   did,   was   there   when   she   needed   most.  
“   no,   ”   the   answer   was   almost   inaudible   because   the   thought   of   kade   brought   another   hurt   into   her   heart.   one   that   she   had   caused   herself   for   ghosting   him   once   again,   but   this   new   hurt   was   completely   different.   feeling   abandoned   once   again   by   the   people   who   had   sworn   to   take   care   of   her,   to   be   there   for   her.   “   my   dad   just   called   me   to   say   that   he   and   mom   won’t   be   able   to   come   to   my   birthday,   ”   her   nose   wrinkled,   her   eyes   welled   up   looking   at   her   ex,   “   and   i   had   planned   everything.   where   we   would   spend   the   day,   where   we   would   go   to   dinner,   everything.   and   now,   ”   a   mirthless   chuckle   escapes,   “   now   i   have   to   plan   a   party   where   morgana   is   gonna   be   all   cuddled   up   with   jay,   sam   and   delilah   will   be   bitching   about   each   other,   and   every   girl   and   their   mother   will   try   to   hook   up   with   cole.   ”

corazón     &       remy           ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯         @seraphicists  
Tumblr media
feeling   her   phone   trembling   in   her   purse,   a   big   smile   appeared   on   her   lips   as   she   excused   herself   from   morgana   and   her   dumb   boyfriend   to   go   outside   to   a   calmer   place   to   take   the   oh-so-anticipated   call   from   her   parents.   though   it   didn’t   take   long   for   her   excitable   and   hearty   features   to   turn   into   a   scowl,   needing   to   keep   the   tears   from   forming   in   her   big   brown   eyes   and   fake   an   understanding   tone   to   not   make   her   parents   guilty   for   breaking   another   promise.  
“   tambien   te   quiero   mucho,   papi,   ”   corazón   says   before   hanging   up   the   phone,   gripping   the   object   and   hardening   it   to   keep   her   from   throwing   it   across   the   garden   of   that   stupid   frat   house   and   the   stupid   party   that   had   just   been   ruined   for   her.   all   she   wanted   to   do   now   was   to   go   home   and   wrap   herself   under   her   silk   duvets   and   cry,   not   even   wanting   to   go   back   in   the   house   to   say   goodbye   to   her   friends,   but   she   does.   when   she   turns   around   to   go   back   inside,   the   vision   of   remy   makes   her   sigh   in   annoyance.  
“   what   the   fuck   do   you   want   ?   ”   she   asked   surly   with   a   roll   of   eyes,   crossing   her   arms.

he   nods   to   her   answer,   though   his   eyes   linger   once   again   on   the   bottles   next   to   his   feet   and   he   swallows   the   lump   that   had   formed   in   his   throat.   maybe   he   shouldn’t   have   believed   in   her   so   easily,   but   something   in   her   voice   reminded   him   of   when   he   still   trusted   her,   and   somehow   that   was   enough   for   him.  
he   lets   out   a   hearty   laugh   with   her   last   statement,   shaking   his   head   back   until   it   reached   the   headrest   and   looked   over   to   mercy,   “   actually,   she   would   definitely   let   you   live   freely   because   i’m   pretty   sure   she’s   out   for   my   neck   still,   ”   somehow   that   statement   still   didn’t   seem   enough,   so   he   adds,      "   i’m   owing   her   money   from   my   last   tattoo.   “   something   inside   of   him   hates   that   he   felt   the   need   to   explain   anything   to   her,   they   weren’t   in   each   other’s   lives   any   longer   and   she   wasn’t   entitled   to   anything   ;   but   it   was   like   falling   back   to   old   habits,   sitting   next   to   her   and   talking   about   everything   and   nothing   at   the   same   time.

being   in   the   limelight   for   as   long   as   lawrence   has   been,   you   are   bound   to   go   either   of   two   ways.   either   continue   being   a   crazy   rockstar   who   drinks   and   gets   high   and   parties   all   the   time.   or   you   lose   your   fame   completely   and   become   a   washed   up   no   body.   lawrence   found   himself   somewhere   completely   different.   and   nothing   was   as   rockstar   as   that.   while   still   securing   his   fame,   he   also   found   the   beauty   and   fun   in   the   mundane.   instead   of   staying   out   until   four   in   the   morning   after   his   shows,   lawrence   comes   home   to   his   beautiful   girlfriend.   something   he   never   thought   he’d   do.
walking   behind   bea,   he   places   a   small   kiss   on   her   cheek   as   he   reaches   over   to   help   her   unpack   the   groceries.   leaning   against   the   fridge   that   was   now   fully   stocked,   he   lets   out   a   small   laugh   at   her   commentary.   “ how   bout   you   tell   me   about   this   trader   joe’s   trip   instead  ?”   which   was   lawrence’s   way   of   getting   out   of   telling   his   girlfriend   that   he   and   the   band   had   an   interview   with   rolling   stones   magazine   today   and   preventing   himself   from   getting   kicked   in   the   shins.

electricity   went   through   his   veins   starting   from   the   spot   her   petite   frame   brushed   on   his   large   one,   intensifying   even   more   with   the   scent   of   her   perfume   hitting   his   breath.   ivan   knew   that   getting   over   karin   would   be   near   impossible,   especially   when   he   was   reminded   of   their   life   together.   especially   when   she   was   in   such   close   proximity   and   all   those   memories   flooded   back   into   his   thoughts.   mainly   because   he   never   thought   he   would   need   to   be   getting   over   her   as   his   heart   had   been   hers   from   the   night   they   met.  
a   night   that   wasn’t   too   far   off   from   this   one,   almost   twenty-five   years   ago.   “   it's   fine,   ”   he   muses,   closing   the   door   again   and   locking   it   this   time,   changing   the   sign   from   open   to   close   before   looking   back   at   his   ex-wife,   “   you   are   still   a   much   better   company   than   lawrence,   ”   the   jocular   comment   comes   out   in   his   deadpan   tone,   one   that   had   become   usual   in   there   few   conversations   since   their   divorce.   he   moves   past   her   and   goes   to   the   back   of   the   counter,   grabbing   two   plastic   cups   and   a   bottle   of   coke.  
“   what’s   happening   in   the   case   ?   ”   ivan   questions,   placing   the   drink   and   cups   next   to   the   cardbox   and   sliding   into   the   booth,   blue   eyes   locking   with   her   green   ones,   “   you   have   that   look   on   your   face.   ”   a   beat   of   silence.

his   answer   caused   her   jaw   to   clench   up   even   though   she   had   expected   to   still   keep   all   of   his   cards   close   to   his   chest,   as   she   would   have.   voss   was   the   one   who   taught   her   how   to   think,   how   to   strategize,   and   how   to   fight.   the   only   thing   he   hadn’t   taught   her   was   how   to   deal   with   the   heartbreak   of   being   on   the   opposite   side   of   someone   who   she   loves   dearly.   loves,   still,   because   his   image   as   a   criminal   still   had   found   a   way   into   her   heart.   for   it,   he   was   still   her   big   brother.   her   hero. 
but   goddamn   it,   didn’t   she   deserve   at   least   one   explanation   ?   one   simple   answer   after   years   of   radio   silence   from   him   and   how   her   life   had   drastically   changed   because   of   it.   her   vibrant   rage   was   starting   to   expand   throughout   her   bones,   and   a   phantom   wound   on   her   left   hand   started   to   hurt   again.   the   same   hand   that   had   punched   a   wall   when   saskia   had   learned   that   he   had   left   her.  
her   finger   hards   the   pressure   on   the   trigger   when   he   makes   a   move   towards   her,   gripping   the   gun   with   all   the   strength   that   she   had   because   suddenly   that   was   the   one   thing   that   would   keep   her   from   collapsing   on   the   floor.   “   we   can   only   expect   shit   from   people   we   know,   and   i   guess   we   don’t   know   each   other   that   well   anymore,   ”   she   spats,   with   a   shrug   of   shoulders,   “   or   maybe   i   am   the   one   who   never   knew   you   to   begin   with.   foolish   little   sass,   right   ?!   ”   a   bitter   chuckle   followed   her   words,   trying   to   swallow   the   question   burning   on   her   throat   to   come   out.
“   is   this   why   you   left   me   ?   ”

“   lucky   strike,   i   fear.   which   means   i   will   be   all   out   of   luck   for   the   rest   of   the   month   now,   ”   he   jokes,   the   index   finger   of   his   free   hand   swinging   to   her   and   he   chuckles,   “   so   that   means   you   owe   me   one,   bradley.   ”   taking   another   sip   of   his   drink,   his   eyes   starts   to   look   around   the   room   in   hopes   to   find   something   else   to   do,   because   he   knows   what   soon   the   conversation   will   turn   to.   her   break-up   with   sebastian   was   still   fresh,   and   knowing   his   stupid   mouth,   he   would   end   up   saying   something   he   shouldn’t.   or   maybe   something   that   he   had   been   wanting   to   tell   her   for   as   long   as   he   could   remember.  
but   there   was   no   escape   for   him.   well,   there   was   reggie,   but   the   thought   of   getting   yelled   at   by   his   little   sister   still   was   at   the   bottom   of   his   list   of   things   he   wanted   for   his   night.   so   he   turns   back   to   the   blonde   with   his   now   anxiety-filled   smile,   and   asks   the   double-edged   question   ;   hoping   that   the   small   talk   doesn’t   turn   into   anything   more.

she   refrains   to   answer,   only   a   nod   to   acknowledge   his   reputation.  
heart.   that   word   has   become   significantly   heavier   to   serena   ever   since   discovering   her   disease,   but   somehow   it   was   unbearable   to   hear   it   in   his   voice.   she   had   given   him   her   heart,   much   before   she   could   ever   understand   the   consequences   of   loving   someone   and   the   heartbreak   that   could   come   on   giving   it   away.   then   she   was   foolish,   thinking   she   could   save   him   from   the   hatred   that   had   settled   in   him,   but   all   matteo   did   was   demolish   her   with   his   words   and   actions.   especially   on   the   night   before   she   left.  
“   some   business   i   had   to   attend   to.   the   tragic   life   of   a   young   ceo   and   the   sacrifices   made   along   the   way,   ”   the   rehearsed   lie   parting   her   lips   with   no   effort   as   if   she   was   giving   an   interview,   masking   that   most   of   her   time   away   was   to   stay   in   between   four   walls   and   listening   beep   sounds   day   and   night.   she   hated   doing   that,   lying,   but   being   faced   with   pitiful   looks   and   fake   sympathy   dreaded   her �� the   most.  
her   attention   moves   to   the   main   room   as   he   does,   pinpointing   what   he   could   be   staring   at   in   a   matter   of   seconds   before   looking   back   at   him.   in   other   times   she   would   have   offered   caring   words,   made   his   mind   deviate   from   the   questions   he   tried   to   hide   that   have   loomed   over   for   as   long   as   she   was   in   his   life.   once   the   light   hits   his   features   in   a   certain   way,   serena   spots   an   eyelash   on   his   cheek,   and   as   if   a   magnetic   was   pulling   her   she   closes   the   space   between   them,   thumb   caringly   taking   the   eyelash.  
“   and   you   are   drunk,   ”   she   says   before   looking   away,   blowing   the   eyelash   away   from   her   thumb   and   making   a   foolish   wish.

❛  what  did  you  wish  for  ?  ❜
he  doesn’t  know  why  he  asks  .  doesn’t  know  why  he  even  cares  to  know  ,  after  all  ,  he’s  perfectly  capable  of  understanding  that  she’s  keeping  her  cards  close  to  her  chest  in  this  little  back  and  forth  ;  yet  the  question  lingers  in  the  air  ,  his  eyes  remaining  on  her  as  he  patiently  awaits  her  response  .

for   a   second,   eric   could   see   her   facade   cracking   and   it   filled   him   with   a   strange   sense   of   hope.   a   feeling   that   soon   escaped   when   hearing   his   best   friend’s   rant   about   their   auras   matching.   the   male   is   all   too   used   by   pluto   and   his   antics,   but   he   knows   what   is   coming.   he   knows   reggie   will   be   thinking   he   planned   all   of   this   with   pluto,   that   in   her   mind   he   had   done   this   to   many   other   girls,   but   it   was   all   a   coincidence.   a   coincidence   that   almost   made   eric   fall   down   to   his   knees   and   dramatically   ask   god   why   would   he   do   that.  
 watching   as   regina   leaves   them,   his   head   falls   backwards   and   he   mimics   a   crying   before   looking   back   to   pluto.   “   worst   timing   possible,   dude,   ”   eric   says   in   a   somewhat   whiny   tone,   but   he   wasn’t   fazed   by   it.   he   was   already   chuckling   and   giving   his   best   friend   the   almost   warm   drink   he   had   been   holding   for   him,   “   i   swear   to   god,   she   almost   believed   in   me   for   a   second   there.   ”

turning  to  the  other  with  a  beaming  smile  ,  he  placed  a  free  hand  on  eric’s  shoulder  ,  drumming  his  fingers  in  a  floaty  tune  only  he  could  hear  .     ❛  now  be  honest  ...  did  you  try  and  give  my  drink  to  the  beautiful  lady  in  red  ?  ❜
