BEAUTIFUL | BRADLEY BRADSHAW
Tumblr media
pairing; bradley bradshaw x fem!reader
warnings; fluff, mentions of dead parents (carole), kind of edited but not really, lower-case intended.
word count; 1k
summary; you give bradley a compliment that leads to a realization.
suggestion: would recommend listening to i would die for you by matt walters while reading! i listened to that on repeat writing this and i feel it fits nicely <3
Tumblr media
it's a rainy tuesday night, with you and bradley stuffing your faces full of chinese food as you watched movies. you were currently watching the day after tomorrow, which, judging by bradley's commentary, you would never do again. at least, not with him. 
you'd like to say that the two of you sat in silence as you watched the movie, nothing but forks scraping against plates and television dialogue, but it seemed he was deliberately trying to annoy you. 
"i'm just saying, that isn't even physically possible!" he laughs incredulously, shaking his head. 
you sighed for the umpteenth time, setting your empty plate on the coffee table.
"bradley, enough! i'm not watching the movie for it's scientific accuracy." you whined. 
shoving him playfully on the arm, you leaned into his chest. "be quiet, you're ruining my favorite movie."
he raises a brow at you. "i thought your favorite movie was the big short?"
you groaned. "my favorite disaster movie. shhh!"
"alright, sweet girl." he gestures zipping his lips closed, and throws the imaginary key across the room.
"dork." you mumbled, regaining your attention to the movie.
somewhere along the way, you're not sure when, you dozed off.
you woke to bradley shaking you gently. "baby, let's get you to bed."
you shake your head, "no, i'm not tired. i'm fine."
"no, come on, love. it's late anyways."
you frowned. "are you going home?" you asked him.
he gave you a sympathetic look. "i have to be up early tomorrow."
you nodded, trying your best to hide your disappointment. it was late, and the weather was horrible. albeit bradley never stayed over on worknights, you'd hoped he'd make an exception for tonight. "right." 
"but i guess, since it's raining, it'd probably be safer if i stayed the night, huh?"
you smiled at him, clearing your throat. "if you want." your attempt to play it cool, as if you didn't care if he stayed or went home, failed horribly. 
bradley sees right through your antics, of course. 
laughing, he chases you upstairs to your bedroom.
you reach the room first. “ha-ha i win.”
he rolls his eyes. “yeah, yeah whatever.”
you stripped of your day clothes and threw on an oversized t-shirt. interrupting bradley in the en suite bathroom, for two minutes, the two of you stood in silence as you brushed your teeth.
"if you're showering before you go home tomorrow, use the bathroom downstairs, please. don't want you waking me up at 5 in the morning." which he always ended up doing anyways.
even on nights when he didn't work, bradley woke up super early in the morning and subsequently-woke you up when he turned on the shower.
you belly flopped on your bed, almost moaning at the feeling of the memory foam beneath you.
bradley let's out a quiet laugh, his actions copying yours, him now wearing nothing but boxers.
climbing under the covers, you turned to face him.
"stop staring." he says, a slight smile against his lips.
"i can't help it. i'd stare at you for hours if i could."
he raises his brows at your words.
"you're really beautiful, bradley."
something flashes in his eyes, but you don't catch what it is. a light pink tinges his cheeks. "i'm supposed to tell you that."
"i mean it." your hand reaches out from under the covers to caress his cheek. "you are a beautiful man, bradley."
he gestures for you to come closer, and you slide your body until your head is resting on his chest. "i appreciate the compliment." he pauses for a moment before speaking again. "the last person that called me that was my mom."
your heart aches for the sweet boy next to you. you couldn't imagine going through life without your parents, and bradley had lost both of his. you could hear the pain in his voice, and all you wanted was to make it go away somehow, but you knew that pain would never truly dissipate. your sweet boy would live with that pain for the rest of his life.
"do you miss her?" you asked quietly, feeling the slight pickup of his heartbeat.
"everyday." he answers, his hands palming small circles on your back. "god, she would've loved you."
you felt tears welling in your eyes, but they didn't fall. "you think so?"
bradley had told you about his mother a few times prior to tonight, how she was beautiful, smart, strong willed. all the traits bradley explained of carole, you saw in him.
"absolutely." bradley kisses the back of your head, and here, in this moment, you would give anything to stay like this forever. be in his arms forever. love him forever. make him feel loved forever.
you let out a small laugh. "is it too early to say i love you?"
you and bradley had only been dating a few months, and while you had never felt this way about anyone this fast, bradley was different. different then all of the other shitty guys you'd dated in the past. bradley was special, and you'd often wondered what you'd done to deserve to be able to call him yours. what you'd done to have fate put you and bradley at the same bar that night.
"i don't know."
"okay.. maybe i'll tell you tomorrow, then."
he laughs, telling you to go to sleep.
so you did. 
when bradley woke up at the god-awful crack of dawn, before leaving, he ripped open the curtains, the sunlight temporarily blinding you. "good morning, sunshine!"
"what the fuck bradley."
he chuckles, shoving his jacket on as he leans down to kiss you. "leaving, i'll call you later."
with your forehead resting against his, your reached up to run your fingers through his hair. "i love you. don't feel pressured to say it back, just letting you know." you tell him. he smiles at your words, but says nothing.
"have a good day today, okay? be safe." you kiss him once more before gently pushing him away from you. 
he gives you a playful salute, and just like that, he's out the door.
A/N

Hey, hope you're feeling good!
I have a request; a jealous Wesker. That's all I ask. :)
BARKING AS WE SPEAK
I hate possessive jealousy irl but in fiction..🤤 Also dont drink and drive kids! This is a little less intense than I wanted it but I just couldn't seem to get there :(
Rating: 18+; n!sfw mention(?) putting it here just to be safe but its up to interpretation
TWs/CWs: gn!reader, possessive behavior, manipulation(?), alcohol, Wesker being Wesker, open ending
Summary: STARS era!Wesker thinks his pretty little S/O is a little too close to Chris
Tumblr media
Chris, chris, chris, if they say his name one more time-
"Al, you there?"
There's static over the phone line before your boyfriend's voice comes through. "Sorry, long day. What were you saying?"
"Chris invited me out for drinks later, do you wanna come with? I think Jill and Barry will be there too."
"Sorry, not tonight. I have some reports that need finishing."
A disappointed whine leaves your mouth but you assent regardless. "Alright. Can I come over after though? I wanna see you!"
You can't see him, but you can practically hear the self-gratified smirk on his face. "Sure. See you later." You barely get out a quick goodbye before the call ends.
He must be really busy.
-------
"____, if you throw up in my car i'm actually going to kill you."
"Sorry~" you slurred slightly, leaning your head against the cool window of Chris' car. You weren't wasted, but you definitely were not in any condition to drive. Honestly, neither was Chris, but he probably had it together the best out of all of you. "Thank you for the ride."
"No problem. Jill has Barry to watch her back in a taxi but I'll be damned if i'd let you get in a car with a stranger in your state." You smile and lean over to affectionately bump him with your shoulder.
"I think you worry to much."
"Yeah, yeah. You should see how much I worry over Claire. Where am I taking you anyways?"
You momentarily come back to your senses and quickly dig your phone out of your bag. Given it's midnight already and your boyfriend hadn't heard from you since 5, he's probably worried sick. "Uh... Wesker's...," you mumble distractedly, opening your text messages and ignoring the teasing "Ooo~"s from Chris.
Al: On your way yet? Sent 9:30
Al: Be safe Sent 10:09
Al: Dinner will be in the fridge when you get here. Text me soon. Sent 11:37
You shoot him a quick text that you're on your way back and drop your phone in your lap, letting your head fall against the headrest. "All good?"
"Yeah- sorry. You know how he worries and he hasn't heard from me since like... 5."
That gets a snort out of Chris and he shakes his head. "You'll be up until work tomorrow getting a lecture for this."
The rest of the car ride is relatively silent. Looks like Wesker read your text but didn't respond...
-------
"Think you can make your own way to the door or do you need help?"
You roll your eyes at Chris and push the car door open. "I think my legs are still functional, Redfield. This was fun though, the team should go out more!"
The two of you exchange your goodbyes and you head into Wesker's apartment with only minor stumbling. "Al! I'm home!"
You don't get a response and cover your mouth, cringing. He's probably asleep and here you are yelling! You kick your shoes off in the doorway and check around for him. He's not in the kitchen, not in the bedroom, study is empty...
"___, glad you finally decided to come."
You almost scream from the sudden sound behind you and spin around, relieved to only see your boyfriend. "Jesus, don't scare me! And, sorry, I know it's late. We kind of lost track of time."
"It's alright," Wesker pauses, his eyes scanning you up and down. "Surely you didn't drive home in this condition?"
"Yeah, no. Chris gave me a ride home!" you turn to hustle some food from his fridge and miss the way his eyes darken.
"And Jill and Barry?"
"They caught a cab," you explain through a mouthful of leftover pasta. "Chris didn't want me going places by myself I guess." The lack of response has you looking up, and you just barely catch Wesker's grimace. "Are you okay?"
You can barely register the way that question sets him off before he's right in front of you and has you boxed in against the counter. "Am I okay?" He looks vaguely unhinged for a moment before he closes his eyes and collects himself. When he opens them again he gives you a stern look. "I don't want you hanging around Chris anymore." You open your mouth to protest, but he cuts you off swiftly; "I don't want to hear it. What if one night he's a little too lonely and you're a little too... 'out of commission' and he takes advantage of that?"
"Al, Chris wouldn't-"
"Quiet!" You flinch back at the intensity in his voice, and he calms down in response; he doesn't want to scare you but god, why can't you just fucking listen? "I'm not comfortable with it. That's all should I have to say. I think most people wouldn't be comfortable with their inebriated partner being in a situation like that. Besides...," he pauses again, bring his hand up to cup your cheek and you lean into it affectionately- you're too tired to argue with him anymore. And he's just so pretty when he's mad...
"You always do like making me happy, don't you?" His hand slides down to grip your chin roughly, pulling you closer to him and slotting his thigh between your legs. "Just fucking listen to me and I can give you more than Chris could ever dream of."

He's a cult leader (kai Anderson x fem reader-series) part one
Tumblr media
Summary: y/n moved back to Michigan after her college degree in music where she reunites with an old lover kai Anderson
Chapter warnings: none
July 2016
Walking into the grocery store, gloomy since you moved back to Michigan, now living on your own in a shitty house you rented, a degree your father didn't approve of, you losed contact with your friends one by one.
You missed one friend in particular, kai Anderson, you both had met in college, he studying religious studies, you were studying music, soon enough becoming more than friends, till you broke it off to come back home.
You hadn't seen or heard from him since, you wondered how he was getting on, he was older than you by four years, you often wondered what he was doing now, where he was.
Paying for your things, thanking the cashier, heading home, opening the trunk of your truck packing your grocerys in before closing it, "what a day" you sighed.
Not paying attention infront of you, bumping into someone, coffee now over your t-shirt, "fuck" you hissed not that the coffee was hot just cold, "shit I'm sorry" a recognisable voice said.
Looking up to see if you were right, it was kai, "y/n?" He asked unsure, "Oh my god kai hi" you smiled now forgetting about the whole coffee thing.
"I can't believe it's you, you haven't changed" kai smiled, you couldn't say the same for him "wish I could say otherwise" you joked making kai chuckle
His hair that was once a shaggy brown, now a faded blue that was longer, once shy now oozing with confidence, he was different.
"I'd love to catch up kai but I need to get going before my roommates Popsicles melt" you said "can I get your number and we can arrange a catch up?" He asked.
"Sure" you replied giving him your number before driving home, the drive was fairly peaceful, you still were shocked you had seen kai again despite him being well your ex he was a good friend to you, you missed him.
The radio playing as an attempt to pull your out your thoughts, but of course it didn't work, you were shocked sure you and kai live in the same state but you recently moved to this part of the state not expecting to actually bump into him.
He looked good, you couldn't take that away from him, he oozed with confidence unlike the kai in college, it was like he's an imposter, you couldn't wrap your head around it.
Entering your shared apartment with your roommates, who you didn't get along with, "I'm back with your Popsicles" you sighed placing the bags on the counter unpacking the grocerys.
Your roommate Jessica came waltzing into the kitchen, "me and Courtney are going out tonight we won't be back till tomorrow" she said, "Oh okay that's fine" you said not really caring what they did.
"You don't want to come?" She asked, "jess you and I know, you don't want me there plus I like my own space especially with the day I had" you chuckled packing the last of the food.
"Okay I'm going to get ready anyway" she said, god you hated her and Courtney, but you needed to stay here for a while just till you get a proper job, currently giving guitar and bass lessons to rich kids.
Going into your room, turning on your record player, a random vinyl you bought from a thrift store you had yet to listen to playing, grabbing your guitar strumming to a random note.
Being pulled out of your thoughts by your phone, confused you answered it "Hello?" Your voice chimed down the phone.
"Y/n it's kai" you face instantly brightened up hearing his voice "kai hi how are you" you smiled, feeling a wave of nostalgia from when you two were dating years ago.
"I'm good I was wanting to ask are you busy tonight?" He asked his voice fulfilling with confidence, "I haven't got anything planned tonight in fact my roommates are going out for the night if you wanted to come over?" You offered, twiddling your hair around your finger.
"Sound great I'll be over around 5:30" he informed, making you feel all giddy inside, after you both hanged up giving him your address, nervous you jumped into a shower, changing into something nice yet comfortable, awaiting on kai's arrival.
"Are you guys away for the full night?" You asked Courtney and jess as they were about to leave the house,"yes y/n why?" They replied irritatingly "I've got an old friend from college visit for the night thats all" you shrugged letting them leave the door.
"Thank god" you sighed plopping down on the sofa, playing music on the tv, 'chain of fools' by Aretha Franklin playing, you sang along sipping on a ice cold beer.
Hearing knocks on your door opening it to reveal none other than kai Anderson.

Star-Crossed Myth Fluffbruary Fanfic (5th Feb): A Good Night's Sleep (Aigonorus/MC)
Title: A Good Night's Sleep
Fandom: Star-Crossed Myth
Genre: Fluff

Pairing: Aigonorus/MC (MC’s name left blank so you can fill it in with whatever you wish in your head)
Word Count: 560

February 5th: A Good Night’s Sleep (Aigonorus/MC)
Aigonorus frowned to himself as he checked the planetarium in the reflecting pool in the heavens when he had a brief few minutes alone to do so. ___ looked even more tired than she had when he’d picked her up from work the day before. 
He sighed softly. If she wasn’t getting any sleep that worried him. As Tauxolouve came back into the room, he looked at the other. “‘M gonna go to the archives.”
“Everything alright?” Tauxolouve asked, somewhat surprised.
“... I don’t think ___’s getting any sleep. I should find a way to help…”
“You would worry about that,” Tauxolouve muttered teasingly, though he understood where he was coming from. “I’m not sure the archives is the best place to look for this though, unless you think there’s an outside issue causing it.”
Aigonorus sighed heavily. “I guess. What a pain. There must be something I can do…”
“Maybe try talking to Hue?” Tauxolouve suggested softly. “He has books on the Earth as well as the Heavens after all.”
“... ‘Kay,” Aigonorus reluctantly agreed. “I’m gonna head off then.”
Tauxolouve nodded. Whilst it wasn’t the end of their shift yet, this actually was more warning than he usually got from the other. He could tell that the other was troubled by this as he hadn’t had to wake the other today.
***
That evening, Aigonorus picked ___ up from the planetarium as per usual. He smiled softly at her as she headed over to him, though his eyes showed concern. “You’re tired.”
“I didn’t get any sleep last night, and not much the day before,” ___ admitted, leaning on him a little. “My mind’s been focussed on this event.”
“We should get you home,” Aigonorus muttered, holding her close and snapping his fingers before she could protest.
Once they were at her apartment, Aigonorus pulled her down onto the bed beside him and hugged her tightly.
___ went to say something, but then her eyes widened as Aigonorus started to sing a very old lullaby. She stifled a laugh.
Aigonrus cut off, frowning. “Am I doing something wrong? This can help people to sleep, right? It's not just children it works with?”
Laughing properly now, ___ wrapped her arms around him and returned his embrace before kissing him briefly. “I'm sorry. It's sweet of you to try. It's just… that's the wrong tune for those words… or the wrong words for that tune, depending on which you meant.”
“... Oh. Maybe I didn't fully understand what Hue meant then…”
___ smiled lovingly at him. “Or maybe you drifted off during the conversation. Especially considering you were talking about lullabies.”
Aigonorus sighed. “This was supposed to save you from another restless night.”
“Aigo,” ___ murmured softly and lovingly, “I don't need you to do anything to rescue me from that. You being here will be distraction enough. I take it you can stay tonight?”
“‘Course,” Aigonorus replied, now smiling brightly himself. “When's this event anyway?”
“... Tomorrow… so after that I'll have less on my mind.”
Aigonorus squeezed her gently. “You always worry too much.”
“I can't help it.”
“I know,” Aigonorus mumbled, holding her close. “It's always like this when you've got a lot on at work. But remember to lean on me…”
___ smiled and leant into the embrace, closing her eyes. “Thank you, Aigo. I love you.”
“I love you too.”

CORPSMAN’S PRAYER - VINCENT KRAWCZYK - THE PACIFIC
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
short summary: Vincent Krawczyk graduates from Illinois’s Naval Hospital Corps School after first enlisting on the 8th of December, 1941
warnings: implied child neglect (sort of?), sailors get drunk and slip off chairs
(Main) characters: Vincent Krawczyk (oc), Terence Flynn (oc)
word count: 1.8k words
notes: this is like. The only time ever I will post my writing… if it disappears tomorrow I have succumbed to my shame and deleted this 😔. I had to format this on my iPad with no idea how any of this works…. Also if you see spelling/grammar mistakes no you didn’t I was too scared to share this to a friend to proofread ☹️ (looks at the ‘art blog’ in my bio hmmmm)
🚢
Grant me, oh Lord, for the coming events;
Enough knowledge to cope and some plain common sense. Be at our side on those nightly patrols; And be merciful judging our vulnerable souls. Make my hands steady and as sure as a rock; when the others go down with a wound or in shock. Let me be close, when they bleed in the mud; With a tourniquet handy to save precious blood. Here in the jungle, the enemy near; Even the corpsman can't offer much lightness and cheer. Just help me, oh Lord, to save lives when I can; Because even out there is merit in man.
If it's Your will, make casualties light; And don't let any die in the murderous night. These are my friends I'm trying to save; They are frightened at times, but You know they are brave. Let me not fail when they need so much; But to help me serve with a compassionate touch. Lord, I'm no hero—my job is to heal; And I want You to know Just how helpless I feel. Bring us back safely to camp with dawn; For too many of us are already gone.
Lord bless my friends If that's part of your plan; And go with us tonight, when we go out again.
— Navy Hospital Corpsman’s prayer 
When Vincent was 5, he woke up in his home to nothing.
When he tried to focus on where he imagined the hallway, there was nothing but black. And from the kitchen he heard a faint drip and nothing more. 
It’s hard to recall a memory in the muffling black dark. It’s more of a feeling really, cold icy dread that travels down your spine and keeps you at a standstill. 
Vincent still remembers how his body— much smaller in his youth, chattering with fear on the dusty couch. Too scared to call out for his parents.
10 years later, he’d brought up the memory at the dining table and was flattened by his father’s admittance to a fuzzy memory where he forgets to take him off the couch and into bed.
Currently, Vinny is 19 and fumbling with the neckerchief of his dress blues. His brow knotted while Terence Flynn shined his shoes.
“Vinny, how in hell are you gon’ take care of your wife? 20 and you can’t tie your own kerchief?”
Krawczyk swivels to face Flynn like you would in drill. His face in a crooked smile.
“20 in a week actually. I thought I told you yesterday that I was 20 next week.” He says in a voice dripping with a very matter-of-fact tone, a crooked grin plastered on his face.
“I’m gonna start praying for your future wife.” Flynn half-snorts, rolling his eyes. 
Vincent listens to Terence’s back click as he stretches, taking a ‘well deserved’ break from his shoe-shining; it was a lousy attempt to seem presentable and handsome for graduation. Terence Flynn, mousey-faced and dark-haired tucking away at least some of his antics for today.
Vincent had complimented how nicely Flynn’s chevrons were stitched once. Terence had flushed red and muttered ashamed that his mother had sewn them on for him.
Within each stitch a gentle kiss of a mothers love tucked under the dark fabric of the Navy’s pride— that’s what Vincent imagined anyways. He had responded with a quiet ‘oh’ and looked at his own chevrons that still had stitches leaking from the edges of blue fabric. 
Krawczyk tried to stare back into the mirror and ignore the eruptions of jealousy that burst across his face.
Men dressed neatly in their Navy dress blues begin to leave barracks, putting away shaving kits and slicking their hair back with their caps in hand.
“Bu-ddy?” 
Terence whistles and clicks his tongue, already standing at the door out of barracks. 
“Christ!” 
Vincent glanced at Terence and then back at himself in the mirror before quickly scampering after his friend. Finally figuring out the intricacies of his neckerchief while his shoes hit the plywood floor.
Vincent's rowing team had been best in Missouri, he was the best batter in baseball, captain of the swimming team, and one of the top boxers in school. 
It didn't count for much, all his trophies and awards were in a box underneath his bed. 
Krawczyk wouldn't know until after his enlistment had ended that his parents had pawned his gold medals off when he'd left for the Navy. Vincent would understand when he came back. Forgiving, sweet, war-torn Vincent who would believe his family was going through tough times.
His photos remained in the box however– the same crooked grin even as his face matured. Collecting an inch of dust.
The winter wind had calmed to a soft breeze (thank the lord) and Chief took to the stand saying speeches Krawczyk seemed to block out with his anticipation.
Rows of navy men with their chests puffed out with the boyish pride that never left them even as men. Preparing to leave for war with the promise to serve and a prayer for survival. 
Thomas Murray, a tall, gawky man with blue eyes and blonde hair had been a surgeon before all of this; Chance Henderson always wanted to be a doctor who and thought this was the quickest a cheapest way to get there; shy Samuel Davis who blushed easily and hated using the communal showers was plain kind-hearted and liked the idea of helping wounded; Dayton Bishop was smart and steady-handed, he was suited to the role of a corpsman with square eyes and a handsome jaw.
Terence had smirked at Vincent when he told him he joined up because he thought it’d make him popular with the ladies. 
Vinny had roared with laughter, telling him that he’d, ‘never even get a nice girl to look his way’.  
Flynn had tried to counter him, reminding Vinny that he had a girl— ‘A girl that left him’, he had responded with. Flynn wanted to argue but Vincent turned the topic too quick.
‘Colours, present arms!’
Vincent was beaming. 
The whole thing felt like his High School graduation but fancier. And if it wasn’t an important ceremony he wouldn’t have stopped himself from laughing but, he’d be lying through bared, grinning teeth that he wasn’t pouring over with pride. 
He (rather excitedly) stepped onto the stage, shaking hands with the CPO and then to the SCPO who passed him his graduation paper. Vincent was only able to glance at his name ‘Vincent Phillip Krawczyk’ scrawled in the middle of the paper before he had to ‘calmly and mild-manneredly’ walk across the stage.
"I solemnly pledge myself.”
"I solemnly pledge myself…” The bright faced men echoed. 
“Before God and these witnesses.”
“Before God and these witnesses.”
“To practice faithfully all of my duties.”
“To practice faithfully all of my duties.”
“As a member of the Hospital Corps.”
“As a member of the Hospital Corps…”
The band marched out soon after the Corpsman Pledge, Anchors Aweigh cutting through the dewy morning air and sending out that good ol’ Navy pride. Vincent could’ve sworn he saw Terence’s eyes water as he muttered the lyrics under his breath.
“STAND NAVY TO SEA, FIGHT OUR BATTLE CRRYY!”
Flynn roared, hopping from bar stool to bar stool— hand on heart while the other swung a bottle of beer. 
Davis was bright red, with 7 drinks too many he had joined Terence in his performance. Vincent clapped, repeating Terence and Davis’ “So vicious foe steer shy-y-y-y!”, despite not having even one drop of alcohol that evening. The rowdy sailors had scared off most of the other bar patrons. Dayton sat smartly as ever, Murray was playing craps with the increasingly drunker Chance and the other boys— Mark, Jones, Sutton, Kidd, Freeman, West, Patrick… were either pink-faced and whooping or challenging the other to another game, drink, or bet.
“Y’know, back in my home-place, Missouri I used to drink like there wasn’t a God!” 
“Anchors aweigh my boys! ANCHORS AWEIGHH!”
Dayton didn’t seem to be really paying attention to Krawczyk’s yammering.
“My pal, Nate, he drank beer like it wasn’t a Wednesday afternoon. Never trust a usual mild-mannered Missouri man, we might all seem pleasant but as soon as he gets a drink too many he’ll sock you right in the face if you even mention his favourite sport team’s rival team— I nearly got socked in the face for it once, can you believe it?” 
Vinny bursts into laughter, not really taking note that Dayton didn’t join in.
"Farewell to foreign shores, we sail at break of day-ay-AY-AY!”
“You’re not drinking.”
Vincent perks up when Dayton speaks.
“Yeah— yeah, no, I'm not a drinker," Vinny shrugs. "Christian, I keep it to special occasions." He finishes, grinning.
“Uhuh. Isn’t this a special occasion?”
“Someone has to be sober enough to hold caps when you all retch whiskey in the bathroom.”
Dayton shrugs, swirling his brandy on the rocks.
“Drink to the foam, until we meet once more! Here's wishing you a happy voyage HOME!”
And with the end of the second verse, Flynn missed the barstool he was jumping to by a foot and cracked his head on the side of the counter.
The sand was soft at Nunn beach.  
Vinny liked beaches, he liked the waves, how the seawater dried on his arms and left white salt stains on his skin. He even liked nursing his good friend after slamming his own face into a bench, who now had a rapidly growing lump above his right brow.
The sun had sunk halfway under the ocean, sending out stretching wands of orange light that sparked crashing waves yellow. It turned his and Flynn’s faces amber and made his bruise just slightly more obvious. 
“Finally put those corpsman skills to good use.”
Vincent was grinning— Terence was not. 
He reached into his wrinkled blues, pulling a silver rosary over his head, careful to not bump his tender lump. Terence cleared his throat, trying to clear the shame in his voice. 
“My gal got it for me but you know uh. We broke up”
“She left you.”
“We broke up!” He insisted, with a huff. Flynn turned from Vincent and admired the carving of Christ. Hanging by his hands on the silver cross, intricate swirls that seemed to grow from his hollow body and border the cross he was strung across. It seemed to glimmer white in the setting sun.
“Take it. A parting gift. Or an apology— I don't care. Or really believe in that crap anymore anyways”
“Don't call it crap.”
“Sorry.”
Vincent tenderly accepted the gift from his friend, thumbing the cross.
“Tell me a story, Vince.” Terence’s voice was flat, eyes glued onto the horizon instead of his friend.
“Well. Once me and my pal Nate thought it'd be funny to throw rocks at the school greenhouse.”

🎃 dark!Eddie Munson x F!Reader🎃
 MINORS DNI
🎃 A/N: This is my first story in years, it's a long read and feels a bit rushed but I'm pretty proud of it. I spend months working on this story I hope you all like it. Was Supposed to be a one-part story but part 2 coming soon
Summary: You and Eddie have been friends since childhood, but ends when he shuts you out and starts dating Chrissy cunningham. you believe there's a deeper meaning.
word count: 8k
TW: 18+ Angst dark theme, Language, blood, fluff (at the end), someone being attacked, flashbacks, toxic father. the theme gets darker as it goes on. mention of deaths of un-named characters (Let me know if I missed anything) a little unedited
First, it started off with the small things “sorry y/n I can’t hang out tonight Chrissy and I have plans.” you Breathe deeply this was the 2nd time this week that Eddie canceled on you. “Oh okay, I guess I’ll catch you tomorrow?” you asked with hope.
“Yeah we can do that.” a small smile formed on your face there was still hope. “okay” there was an awkward pause. “Um, I'll see you then.” Eddie said nothing else just a simple “bye.” 
“By-“ the line went dead before the words came out, you cleared your throat trying to rid the knot that was in it. Moments went by sitting on the couch watching the news about another missing person, and you realized you didn't ask what time.
When Saturday rolled around you made your way to his trailer knowing it was okay to show up unannounced. friends since 8 his home was your 2nd and the same with yours
he spends more time at your home than his own not wanting to be alone because his uncle worked late sometimes. You too unseparated conjoined at the hip as your mom would say 
 At this point, you were able to read each other's minds so you thought. 
you give a light knock hearing chatter, giggling and thuds coming from the inside, you stood there for 5 minutes before knocking again this time harder. you instantly hear silence the thudding come closer to the door as you watch the nob jiggle a few times before it swings open, you couldn't help it to jump back scared a bit only calming down when you see the shaggy hair man opening the door. he was out of breath sweaty and shirtless. “hey, w-” he cut himself off trying to catch his breath, swallowing hard before finishing “what are you doing here?” he asked looking confused. 
You were a bit hurt at the fact that he forgot about today's plans with you but quickly pushed it to the side. “Oh I just came to pick up the book I left here a few weeks ago” you lied through your teeth, Eddie looked perplexed not remembering seeing any school books laying around but his own.
“oh, ill look.” he closed the door back hearing bits of talking coming from the open window on the side where his room was. you only realized later that someone was in there. you waited patiently wishing he would let you in like he always does, it made you feel like a stranger.  He came back with a shirt on this time “emptying handed “ sorry, Y/n/n, don't see it “ “wha-” you cut him off. “that's fine” you backed away trying to find a fast exit “I probably have it home and just misplaced it.” That didn't make sense but you jumped on your bike anyway speeding down the road. Eddie closed the door only to realize that he made plans with you today. he swung open the door to call after you but you were nowhere in sight. 
Then it all hit at once, he stop talking to you and stopped answering you all together “Hey, Eddie.” you said cheerfully with a small wave as he walk past hand and hand with Chrissy, But he didn’t see you at least that’s what you hoped. You haven't seen spoke or him in 3 weeks since that day at the trailer park, you started eating alone at lunch, there was never any room at your usual seat since Eddie introduced Chrissy to everyone from hellfire club. 
Your mom started to ask where Eddie was. “Oh, he got a job so he's been busy.” You lied for some reason, you told her.
 she didn't have to make extra food for dinner. after a while she stopped asking, making it all too real for you.
The day he told you he asked Chrissy out you were confused, he never expressed he was into the girl before. He always thought the popular kids were all self-centered assholes and you couldn’t agree more, so what changed?
“Since when you're into Chrissy Cummings?” He looked at you for a minute, which made you feel bad for even asking, it wasn’t really your business. “The same reason you were into Eric Scott,” He said, stuffing more food into his mouth. You didn’t know where that came from but you made it into a joke “ Okay you got me there.” You laughed but he didn’t join in. He got up to put his dishes into the sink.
You didn’t know why he was being so secretive about his relationship with Chrissy he wasn’t with his short-term ones, he told you everything from the sex to the non-stop fighting, every little detail he told you. 
You didn't find out about Chrissy until about a month into the relationship. 
When DnD night rolled around  Dustin took the courtesy to inform you “Hey, y/n you're coming tonight right?” He asked you you frowned. “coming. to. what. tonight?” inch out each word hoping he would fill in the blank, You smiled but still frowned “To play DnD… duh” he cut his eye at Mike. “Since you missed the last few games.’’ 
 “What?” You looked between the two boys confused “Yeah, it’s tonight” Dustin didn’t catch the hurt and confusion in your voice, racing thoughts going across your mind and face “the last few games Chrissy has taken your place.” Panic ran to your core making you feel sick when you heard that. Did he replace you? That can't be true not your best friend he wouldn’t do that.
You didn't hear a word Dustin said only catching the end “ She's not a bad player, she’s pretty fun.” He smiled thinking about the soft blond. “Dude.” Mike finally intervenes.
“I’ll catch you guys tonight.” You quickly said speed walking away from the pair. 
He wouldn’t do that right? you're his best friend, conjoint at the hip your mom would always say since forever you thought. Maybe he thought you were busy? no, you thought he was cutting you off does he realize his doing it? You had this battle with yourself for weeks now unable to have a real clear thought without Eddie clouding it. he was eating at your brain nonstop and he doesn't even know it, the love of your life lives carefree fuck free without the thought of you in his mind while he plagued yours.
=
you hesitated to open the door hearing shouts coming from the other end, you had this battle all day and it all added up to this moment you couldn't help this feeling of not being wanted there was a few time you felt like this when your dad left, 
You couldn't help to think about those things when Eric Scott lost a bet and had to ask you out and humiliated you when going for the first kiss on a date “Ew, I can't keep this up” he push himself back rolling away from you. “what?” You were confused “did you really fucking think I was into you?” Dread washed over you, you knew it was all too good to be true. stupid stupid stupid you repeated to yourself. Snickering made you come back to reality, people were watching you. You turn to leave the ring but bummed into something hard, looking up it was Eddie “Are you okay?” he asked, holding both sides of your face blocking you from the world, you allowed yourself to break, tears quickly growing in your eyes almost falling to your knees. Eddie grabbed you, helping you sit down. “I wanna go home, I wanna go home.” you repeated people walked by haggling you, making kiss faces you cried harder “fuck off!” Eddie shouted.
he looked up watching Eric laughing with his friend's hand and hand with his girlfriend before walking away. “FUCK THIS” Eddie grunted through his teeth jumping up and making his way to the unaware boy his feet hit the floor hard enough to sound like bass of the music itself. you cleaned your eyes barely calming down, glimpsing around for your best friend into you heard a shout “GET OFF OF HIM.” GET OFF OF HIM YOU FUCKING PSYCOPATH.” You looked up seeing people were no longer Snickering and pointing at you but looking behind you, you whipped your head to the sound. You searched into your eyes and landed on Eddie punching Eric. 
His head flew back hitting it the floor below him. he tried to push him off, putting his hand in Eddie’s face. But regretted it when he bit him, Eric hollered in pain. Eric's girlfriend screamed hitting Eddie on the back. You kick the skates off and started running into the forming crowd pushing past people trying to get to your best friend. 
You looked back seeing Justin and the rest of Eric's friends re-entering the building. 
Panicked rushed over you, and started moving faster to get to him. You drop to the floor crawling finding gaps to get to Eddie faster making some people fall along the way “Sorry.” not sure if it rushed any ears finally getting to reaching him.
You grabbed him trying to pull him off the boy but failing and falling on your ass, you hear shouting coming from the other side of the crowd knowing Justin and the others are getting closer and are coming to not fight fair. You jumped on Eddie’s back “Eddie.” You whined out, tears slowly speeding back up, you wouldn’t know what to do if he got hurt defending you.“We have to go.” You cried out but still went unnoticed Eddies face was red and hot when you touched it. “Eddie, please stop.” You sobbed lips hitting the shell of his ear, you watched the boy below him bloody. That’s when Eddie stopped mid-punch. You wrapped your arms around his torso, finally feeling him breathe for the first time. “We have to go,” you said again pulling him by his vast but that barely did anything. Eddie stood full height slowly backing away with your pulls watching Eric cough up blood. Justin made it to his friend, his eyes widened at the harm, and his wilded eyes met Eddies.  “COME ON.” You pulled, Eddie saluted Justin and smiled he stumbled a bit from your pulling. 
“Your fucking dead Munson!” Justin was hot on his tail but got closed off by the people to see the damage and to see what was going on. You and Eddie slipped past with ease running to the van and jumping in. speeding off hearing shouting and glass hitting and breaking against the van.
Neither of you said anything you relaxed a bit but the fear soon rolled in when you got back to eddies place.
When you both made it to the safety of Eddie’s home it all sits and you begin to freak out 
You started to breathe heavily, tears blurred your vision. You were so focused on trying to hide your fear you didn’t know Eddie noticed.
 “Hey,” Eddie said softly, coming near you and resting his hands on your shoulders bending a bit. looking into your eyes “no one is coming to hurt me or lock me up, okay?” he already knows what was running through your mind.  “but you don't know that.” you cried out, finally letting your tears fall. 
“They, won't I promise,” he said sitting next to you pulling you into his side. You cried silently to yourself, Eddie rested his head on yours bringing a hand up to rest on your head playing with a few stands, “are you okay?” you asked barely in a whisper. Eddie chuckled a bit. “I should be asking you that.” he put his hand on your forehead. You hmmed a bit but didn't answer him at first “I'm okay” you finally said he signed  “ I know your not, tell me babe” He whispered. You didn't miss the way your heart jumped at the pet name. “I don't know, it's stupid I should have known better. You played with your fingers. “It's not stupid, what he did was wrong.” he swallowed hard feeling the anger coming back and putting his head back. 
You lay back as well resting your head on Eddie’s lap looking at the demi light hitting the ceiling.  “But I should have known better.” That Eddie could agree with, you should have known better not because he’s a popular guy but because he is the popular guy that makes fun of people like you and him endless teasing. And the way that eric treats other women he didn't want that for you, especially the ones that he sees below him.
You laughed a little, making Eddie look down at you. “Why would anyone like me?” you asked yourself, not knowing you said it out loud. Into Eddie spoke up “I like you.” he smiled to himself. “Not like that Eddie.” You whispered sadly, “No one is going to like the town freak, I'm not a cheerleader, I’m, not Chrissy Cunningham,” you said in a humorless laugh. “She has it all” you finished “I wonder what her dad is like.” you thought out loud again. “Is he a bastard like mine or does he love her.” this was the first time you said anything about your dad in years he was surprised.
“The imagination really, sets you up for failure.” your breath was shaky “ God I can't believe I thought he was different.” How so? Eddie asked already knowing the answer.
  “I don't know.” you didn't want to talk about it anymore, unable to find the words to explain the feeling of being loved to only learn it wasn't real you knew that all too well. Because right now all you were feeling was false hope “I just thought everything would be perfect. Like what the fast kiss would feel like” you said so low Eddie barely heard it.  He knew what you were getting at.
Eddie watched the tears build with the reflection of the light, hating the fact that someone has called you so much hurt he felt that when you cried for days about your dad. He knew it himself about his own parents…. rejected.
 “Don’t let him make you feel that way.” He said feeling his cold rings rest on the side of your face and turning your head to meet his big doe eyes. He lightly stroked your cheek. Tear finally falling from your eyes, he whipped them. “So what you've never been asked out or never been kissed.” he said studying your face, he opened and closed his mouth as if he was going to say something but stopped. 
“That's why you don’t go out with people that have two first names.” he joked earring a genuine laugh from you and wiping your tears. “There she is” He smiled leaning down and kissing your forehead.
You and Eddie fail a sleep like that.
Days went on you waited anxiously for the cops to come for Eddie but no one came. 
turns out that Eric had bought drugs from Eddie and didn't want to ruin his ‘good boy’ image if Eddie got locked up and the truth somehow came out, “see I told you.” Eddie gives you a shit-eating grin. You chewed Eddie out after you learn what he was doing in the woods after school.
Times are different now you thought now it felt like you didn't know him anymore and he never knew you, you kind of wish it was true it would save you from this feeling. 
you heard loud shouts coming from the inside that made you decide altogether. unlocked your bike getting ready to jump on and ride away 
“Y/N, hey. You turn to see Lucas and Max approaching you “Hey,” you smiled warmly “You finally made it.” pain pinged in your chest everyone thought you just didn't want to come anymore. “Wait are you leaving?” Max asked looking at the bike in your hand. You followed her eye to the bike “No.” you lied, cursing yourself. “My.” you stop to get your story straight  “The bike lock isn't working and I was trying to figure out what was wrong with it.” 
“Aw, don’t worry about it just bring it in,” Lucas suggested max agreed you nodded giving a tight smile. 
They both walk to the door opening it for you “Hey, Look who we found outside” Max yelled in everyone looked at you walking in “oh my god, you came.” Jeff yelled jumping up and meeting you halfway, you couldn't help to smile and laugh as he pick you up making you drop your bike and spinning you around. “ I missed you too.” You giggled he put you down picking up your bike “where have you been?” Gareth asked 
You were about to answer when you locked eyes with Eddie's in that moment it felt like you were the only two in the room. He smiled a little and it felt like your heart bloomed making you feel alive again all your pain, hurt and anger seem to disappear you felt relief for the first time in weeks it felt like hope, and you smiled back.
He broke contact when the blonde grabbed his arm and wrapped herself around him. He smiled big at her as if she was the only thing in the world to him, with that the feeling in your chest disappeared you looked away taking your stuff off and talking to the others 
Once everyone settled you had nowhere to sit your spot was next to Eddie in past games but was occupied by Chrissy. “Any more chairs?” you asked looking around 
Eddie frowned “your staying?” he asked you stopped in your track “Yeah.” you laughed out 
“Were too far in Vecna’s cures to introduce new characters,” Eddie said, his face was unreadable. “that's fine I can play my usual role.” you want back looking for a chair behind the pile. “No,” he said with demand “What?” you were confused at his coldness to you “ I gave Chrissy your role.” everyone's heads shot to Eddie. “You what?” You asked feeling your body warm with heat
“You didn't show up for the past few games.” He said with a blank stare, Who was this you were talking to this wasn't your best friend you were looking at  “ that's because you didn't tell me about those games.” you stood your ground
“I shouldn't have to tell you about schedules .” he leaned on the table he wasn't making any sense but was trying to make a point
“Which You didn't bother to give me.” You talked over him. “Y/n,” He sighed. “Eddie,” you said folding your arms.
The other watched as if you and Eddie were in a heated tennis match
He stood back to his full height chuckling to himself he knew you weren't giving up that easy. “like I said we are too far into the storyline to add a new character,” 
“What is your problem?” you ask finally at your breaking point with him. “Nothing.” He said with a blank stare.
“Did I do something to you?” You tried to hide the hurt in your voice. You know you didn't do anything to Eddie you just want to see if that would push him over the edge, and he’ll tell you the truth you continue before he can answer “ first it the barely answering my calls, to not don't hanging out, to ignoring me completely in public, now this.” your breath was shaky
Your word vomiting was getting to him his face turned red and started to breath heavy “maybe it's because I can’t stand fucking being around you.” he said with anger and hate. That shut you up, that feeling again, that feeling you felt so many times before but this one was worse. Tears blurred your vision. You waited for him to take it back but he never did. It felt like you were stabbed in the heart, and heat rose to your ears. “Oh wow.” You couldn't hide your shaky voice as tears rolled down your face, he really meant that you thought. 
The room was quiet, everyone was shocked at his Outburst. in all your years of knowing Eddie he has never gotten angry to the point of yelling at you. You may fight and debate but never to the point of never hurting each other's feelings. 
You were blinded by emotions not thinking straight, you want to grab your stuff making your way to your bike, and out the door, “You’re an ass you know that.” Erica said once you made your way outside Before you heard the others shouting from the other side.
You stood there for a minute not knowing what to do. You felt lost just as you did when your father left, but this felt different this was pain.
The feeling of rain brought you back to Reality. You put your stuff on trying your best to not end up sick. Tears blind your vision, clumsy wrapping the scarf around your neck. 
The light rain fell a bit heavier when you made your way down the road, leaving Eddie once again this time it felt like for good. 
Once you made it home, you were freezing but too far away to care you wet the floors as you made your way to your bedroom. Luckily your mom wasn't home to scold you about it and about being out late with a possible killer being on the loses, But only wishing she was. hoping it will be dry when she got home. 
 you got straight into bed wanting the day to end, passing out soaking the sheet as you fall harder. Lightly hearing the phone ring in the distance, too exhausted to answer it you let go letting another tear roll down your cheek before shutting the world out the ring finally stopped.
=
The sun peck through the curtains waking you, still in the same position as the night before. You lay there pleased with the peace of first waking up, into last night's events filled your mind again. Your vision blurred your heart sank further. This feeling you dread, you fight back tears but the pain only grows worse A knock snapped you back to reality “hey, kid.” Your mom enter, and you dragged your face across the bed wiping the unfalling tears from your eyes. “You're going to be late for school” She reminded you. You only nodded, she turned to leave closing the door behind her. But to only re-enter “Did you fall asleep with your clothes on?” She asked. “Yeah I was tired after I got in late from hanging out with Eddie last night.” you half lied, setting up. you wouldn't necessarily call it hanging out. You didnt know what hell to call it, you didnt know a lot these days you thought. 
“M'kay, but try not to do that it'll probably be a while before I can get you some more.” She reminded you. “Sorry, mom I forgot.” She gives you a reassuring smile before walking out. Your biggest supporter, only wanting the best for you sacrificing so much for you. Held you when you cried over your father, she held it together. But yet you shut her out, lying to her for weeks about what's going on between you and Eddie. You couldn’t bring yourself to tell her the truth, feeling if you do it be true no longer in your head. The guilt set in, and your tears rolled down your cheeks. Too much was hitting you at once. You finally made your way into the bathroom ready to get this day over with. 
When you made it to school you made sure to avoid everyone as best you could skipping lunch, and trading sits so you could sit at the back of the class so you wouldn’t sit in the middle of Gareth and Jeff. 
Weeks want by you come home later and later not wanting to be alone with your thoughts. Taking on Small tutoring jobs to keep your mind off things when you weren’t doing your own studies, spending hours on them it semi kept you grounded 
Packing your things up and ready to head home, you looked around one last time making sure your mess is clean so Mr. Quinn won't have more work to do. “You heading out?” “This early” you turned When you heard Mr. Quinn. You looked at your watch striking “10:49 this was early for these days “Yeah, I have an exam in the morning” you smiled, putting your backpack on. “all right.” “be safe out there kid, I’ll see you tomorrow” “see you tomorrow” You walked backward before turning around heading out. The cold air hit you as it did every night making sure you buddle up well so you won't get sick again. 
You hopped on your bike like you did every day and made your way down the road. Light rain softly hit you “Fuck.” You swear. Nowhere near home, you knew you were going to get sick again. You push harder to try to make it home faster speeding down the road something knocks the wind out of you calling you to fall to the ground hard. You were dazed blinking a few times from the ground meeting your head, slowly getting up stumbling a bit to grab your bike from the other side of the road. Your body burned with body aches as you bind down.
Stopping in your tracks when you heard noise from the woods balls ring in your head that something knocked you off and not you just falling. Not wanting to stay around you tried to jump back on your bike to only see big long deep cuts on your leg, blood poured out making you feel faint. The same sounds made you look back into the woods this time growling. You tried to get back on your bike wincing in pain and falling off again. You looked towards the woods, seeing glowing eyes in the leaves. Your heart race getting up a final time looking back at the woods hopping on the bike shakenly making your way down the road, looking back you see a dark mask making its way to you. You screamed as you were knocked back off feeling cold but hot on your arm looking down and seeing more long deep cuts in it. 
The rain fell harder as your world went dark.
Bright lights blind you through your lids. you heard voices all around but couldn’t make them out “I’m sorry, we don't know what's going you with your daughter” you heard. A loud sob broke out, who is that you thought? “What attacked her?” “what kind of animal could do this?” they asked again. You recognize the voice it was your mom, you tried to call out to her but nothing come out your throat was dried and hurting. “We don't know.” was all the man could say “So what now,” She asked through her tears “Just spend the little time she has left with her.” She cried harder tears ran down your face why is she crying? You tried to speak again but you were stopped again in pain. “Oh, baby.” You felt soft hands grab yours. She kissed them. Her voice sound faded you blinked out. You don't know how long but when you come back she was still talking.
“Who did this to you?” “What happened?” I don't know mom you thought you could feel your throat getting tight preparing to cry. Into last night events ran through your mind again making you panic and making you jerk hard, you felt a pain on your side. “Dr. Drew!” your mom got up yelling.
 You couldn't stop your body from moving  You heard footsteps enter the room “WHAT'S HAPPING.” your mom screamed, “WHY IS SHE BLEEDING FROM THE EYES.” Your mom shrieked. “ GET HER THE HELL OUT OF HERE!” The doctor said You felt small, far away, everyone sound like they were at a distance. You could hear your mother crying, you tried to talk again but still nothing, making you panic even more. You scream but nothing, you could feel yourself fade in and out. Am I dying you thought, is this what you heard? They were talking about you. You could hear your hollow breath, heartbeat reaching your ears. You faded out one last time. 
=
Feeling coldness on your face, you could hear a voice getting closer. “I’m so sorry.” someone whispered “I don't know if you can hear me.” you heard a sniff. “But I want you to know.” the words were breaking up as the tears grow thicker. “I. Love. you.” They broke down. Feeling dried lips on the side of your face, Eddie? you thought. He rubbed your face kissing you again. Eddie, I’m here. I can hear you, I love you too you cried out. You tried to move but nothing you felt trapped. 
He looked over your sickly body, he watch as your veins swell and pulsate unnaturally under your skin your eyes looked sunken. he watches sweat and black blood pour off your body tubes down your throat, you breathe fast as if you were panting.
You don't know how long you were like that, but you listen. He talked from your childhood to know. “God.” He sighs. He stopped for a bit.“ This all my fault.” He broke the silence. This is not your fault you said to him, this is no one's fault.
 He continued, but he started to sound far away. Not again, he fades in and out. You started to panic, pain rose up in your body and you jerked again. Making him stop, he got up. 
The monitors want off, your mom ran back into the room. “SHE’S HAVING ANOTHER ATTACK” she yelled back in the hall the nurses ran in the doctors close behind. “What's going on?” Eddie asked in a panic. Your mom pulled him to the side and explain to him in tears about the violent attacks that's been happening every few hours, and whatever attacked you poison you and its been slowly killing you. He drown out whatever else your mom said, his heart raced his blood ran cold. You were dying, he slowly back out of the room running down the hall, hearing your mom call after him, he knew what was going on.
=
Later that night he made his way back to the hospital, leaving in a hurry he couldn't control himself this time, holding so much in he didnt want to hurt anyone. He lightly touches your mom's arm, making her look up. She smiled a little. happy to see him back, she looks back at you. “I've been so scared to leave her.” She whispered, catching a tear and wiping it away.  Eddie didnt want her to leave the room but she had to it was the only way for him to save you. He took the spot next to your mom, he didn't know how long he sat like that. 
just watching you. 
He knew he fucked up, and if this work you’ll probably wake up hating him for how he treated you. A sound coming from your mother's stomach dragged him from his thoughts. He chuckled looking her way she did the same. “You should probably get some food.” He told her. She shooked her head.” I can’t leave her.” she shifted back, resting her head on her hand. “It will probably do you some good to get out of the room for a bit.” He suggested, she smiled not letting it reach her eyes. “It's okay, I'll be with her,” he added. “You're not going to let up are you?” She asked He shook his head, she sighed letting her legs fall to the floor. “Okay.” She got up hooking her purse over her shoulder. Looking over her at you before walking out.  Eddie watches as she went down the hall disappearing. He got up closed the blinds and shut the door.
 As another attack was coming.
He walked to the side of your bed, taking the heart monitor off your finger and putting it on his own. resting his hand on your cheek has you jerked. “Hey can you hear me?” he asked in another low whisper feeling like he was redoing from hours before, he rubbed your face. Wiping the blood coming from your eyes. “It's okay, I'm here, calm down.” he kissed your cheek  “I'm going to fix this.” “I promise.” he finished. 
There was a pause, there was nothing. Only end when you felt pain ring through your body again but this was different. Your world slowed down, it felt like you were floating, and you couldn't help but laugh.  '' What's so funny?”  Eddie asked, smiling, taking the blunt from you. “Nothing.” you giggled “God your high as a kite.” he laughed, “Told you it wasn’t so bad.” he continued. “And here you were losing your shit about me smoking. Now look at you.” he pats your arm. “Hey, I wasn’t talking about you smoking it I was talking about you selling it.” You closed your eyes lying back. “At least you can get weed for free now.” He laughed. “Tell me how dilated are my pupils?” you asked scooting closer to him. He laughed harder this time. “What?” you asked “I can't  see them if you don't open your eyes dummy.” He said trying to catch his breath. “Stop” You whine, smacking his leg. “Okay, okay.” he giggled. “Open them.” He leaned in.
When you did there was nothing you were met with darkness. You started to panic  “Eddie!” you screamed out. “Where are you!” He sound far away, you looked around. Water at your feet. You started running, You could hear him but he was still far away. You kept going it felt like hours but you can hear he was getting closer. “I’m here.” it sounds like you were right on him when pain took over and you fell to the hollow wet floor. “It will be over soon,” He said. You cried and screamed this was worst then before you closed your eyes. 
Brightness took over and you reopen them you blinked a few times trying to adjust to the bright light. The room was white, you closed them again. “ Hey, don’t close them on me, dummy.” You heard someone say. You looked to your right seeing Eddie looking right at you. He smiled “There go those big eyes.” He breathed out in relief. You tried to speck but was stopped only realizing that there was a tube in your throat. You reach up weakly trying to pull it out but Eddie stopped you, calming you before slipping the monitor back onto your finger. Your mom walked back in the room specking “hey did Dr. Drew come bac-” She stopped dropping her food   “Oh My God” “Oh My God” she repeated “ Shes awake” she yelled out of the room before rushing to your side. 
Nurses rushed into the room shocked at the fact you were a wake Dr.Drew not too long after “Holy shit” he breathe out. Just as shocked, just hours before you were at death's door. He rushed to your side as well. In all the chaos you couldn't take your eyes off of Eddie, confused you didnt know why he was here.  As a matter of fact, you couldn’t remember anything 
You spend days trying to piece together what happened, you remembered leaving the library but that’s it. You even asked your mom but she was just as confused, only saying that could have been the next victim to the killer that’s been hunting Hawkins for months now but no one was sure since no one was found dead or alive.
Given your wounds and odd sickness the doctor thinks you were actually attacked by a sick wolf, but for some reason that didn’t sit right with you. 
You asked Eddie, but he brushed it off not knowing himself, and was just as lost. You couldn’t help the fact that Eddied's behavior was unreadable. He seemed like his normal self but something was off like he knew more than what he was leading on, but you chalked it up to the fight that you two had and he just didn't know how to talk about it with you. You couldn’t blame him you felt the same way, (it was your first ever real fight), or was it something else…. 
Eddie knew more than what he was saying, He saw what attacked you he knew all too well. he saw it when your blood hit his tongue that night you woke up, it rush through him like wind it almost knocked him off his feet. It’s what he craved for every given day it's all he thought about the taste of you on his tongue. He couldn’t tell you that he couldn’t show you his true self he couldn’t hurt you… right? 
He prayed that you won't remember, you didn’t need to. You needed a normal life he struggle with the thought for days. But it needed to be without him.
He watched your smile slowly disappear. “ What’s wrong?”  You asked watching him closely, he could see fear and panic take over, he looked away he hates seeing you like this he had seen it come and go many times before and too many times these past few months. “I-” He stopped himself, and he breathe. He looked nervous, you smiled a little, this was the Eddie you knew. Open willing to tell you everything, but you were still in the dark about his acts. It's still like you know a stranger. For the first few days, it was strange waking up to him by your side. You couldn't stop looking at him, a feared he’ll disappear. You watched him carefully afraid if you made the wrong move he’ll run away. It's only been a few hours since you been back home and he barely said anything to you, you felt guilty that he was stuck watching you while your mom ran errands. 
He could be with her.  
“Do you remember anything from that night?” He asked looking back at you from the tv that showed more people have been going missing. 
For the umpteen time “No.” You mumbled, feeling your blood boil, Annoyed with yourself for not remembering. “Why do you keep asking me that?” You frowned trying to hide being upset. “No reason at all.” He rubbed his hands together giving a quick fake smile looking around the room not looking at you. You knew he was lying. “ What, are you a cop or something?” You joked he smiled looking back at the tv leaning on his hand. You both set like that for a while, he couldn’t find the words to tell you how much he felt. “ Do you remember anything from the Hospital Before waking up?” He broke the silence 
You thought for a bit “I remember.” You stopped, thinking again “I remember some things, I know everything sounded far away,” You said in a small voice trying not to cry you didn’t wait the trapped feeling to come back, you thought you were going to be trapped there forever.
He got up from his spot sitting next to you pulling you into a gentle hug “There was so much pain.” You sobbed. “And I heard you and my, my mom’ and I was screaming out for you both but I couldn’t.” This was the first time in years he has seen you cry, he wish he never asked he didnt want to make you upset but that's all he was doing these days making you upset. Eddie held you tightly kissing your head “I’m sorry.” He said in between each kiss, he wish he could take your pain away. You didn’t ask why was he saying sorry, you didn’t want to. You didn’t want this to end “You know I love you right?” He sniffed “Yah,” you gave a weak smile “You're my best friend.” Just in the blank of an eye, you forgot the last few months right there looking into Eddie’s eyes. 
He sighed. you shift uncomfortably in your sit. not because of pain but because you didnt want to read the room wrong and make him uncomfortable and run off again ” Not like that.” You didnt know what he was on about. He pulled away looking at you. You watched him anxious fearing that you messed up. You hesitantly wiped his tears, he did the same to you. You couldn’t help to smile. he slowly dragged his thumb down your cheek, looking at every line ever mark on your face he didn’t want to forget them. He had to tell you how he felt he couldn't drag this out anymore he was running out of time.
He slowly leaned in. he could feel you tensing up, his lips hovered over yours before connecting. his lips were soft on yours, Eddie could do this forever, this is where he belonged.  
It hit you, you pulled away you avoided his reaction not wanting to see him hurt. “What is this?” you didn’t know what you were asking. “What are we doing?” You mat his eyes   “I never wanted to hurt you, I just wanted to protect you.” He let out. “ Protected me?” You ask bewildered at his words “Protected me from what Eddie?” You asked worried now, you searched in his eyes for answers. “I.” He stopped himself “I can't tell you” He sound defected. He reached for your face before you could say anything, You pulled away.
“Please.” tears filled your eyes. “ Just tell me what's going on.” you asked again “you’ve Been acting weird for months now.” you finished. Again Eddie didn't say anything, he didn’t want your last time together to end like this “Please, I just Want you to know I love you.” He whispered more to himself. He stretched for your face again but you pulled away. His hand closes into a fist, knuckles turning white. “Don't.” He breathes out, “Don’t what Eddie?” You were pissed now. “Don’t you have a girlfriend,” you asked coldly, you didn't know where this was coming from but your heart was crying out. “Don't.” He said repeated “Don't bring up the fact you have a girlfriend? Or at the fact that  it had to take me to almost die for you to talk to me.” You tried to calm yourself, the anger was making you vibrate calling you pain. 
“But your barley doing that are you?” You tried to catch the sob that come out. You tired to move away from him but hurting your leg in the process. “She's not my girlfriend.” He boomed making you jump calling you to hurt your whole body you winced. 
Eddied jumped to your side again looking you over making sure you didnt make any wounds open up. “What do you mean she, 's not your girlfriend?” You tired to easy the pain running though your body, attempting to look into his eyes. He looked away he couldn’t lie to you looking into your eyes. He can feel himself drifting away he was losing control. He stood up, he didnt what it to end like this. He couldn't let it, but he was running out of time. He thought about all the things he wasn’t able to find words for. 
He quickly kneed down taking in your lips again putting his all in, he wasn't able to find the words but he could show you, right? You melted far this time, this kiss was different than the last one. Eddie longed for this kiss for years and he never notice it but this was what he wanted if only he could turn back time and do things differently.
This is what you wanted for the longest, you and Eddie. You wanted to be the one by his side, not the one watching. You want him to be your everything. “Just tell me what your thinking.” You said lowly against his lips. He landed another light kiss and started to back away, his mind was feeling clouded this was wrong he shouldn't be doing this to you. His leading you on, hes leaving you forever so why was he doing this? He needed to end this right here right now so you could move on, so why wasn't he doing it? his mind was saying another but his body was doing another. He wishes he could take back the kiss but he was being greedy and it will only end up hurting you more. He's famous for only thinking about himself not caring for you, taking your first kiss, and running away after. He spends so much time running lovers off from you, what gives him the right to move on and not you? End this now he was screaming at himself, he was so deep in thought that he didnt know you were talking to him.
“It was a good bye kiss.” He said looking down, why was he saying this? This is not what he wanted to say. “What?” You were confused by all of this. “I'm sorry,” he said, running his hands through his hair and face, getting impatient with himself. “This will be the last time you'll see me.” He got up from his spot on the floor, you tried to do the same from the couch but failed and fell back down. “Eddie what's happing to you?” you askerd looking him over, you didnt know this person in front of you. This wasn't your Eddie, he wasn't making any sense, and he was aware of that. This time getting up grabbing a better hold of the walker. “Where are you going?” you questioned. He didnt say anything “God Eddie why are you being like this?” you cried out. He still wasn't saying, it was like he was in a trance. “Eddie?” You called out, you called out once again “just know, everything I have done was to protect you.” He whispered. 
“From what?” you cried out harder, he looked at you, and you gazed harder into his eye seeing something strange in them, you moved to look closer  but he moved away fast, reaching for his things “Don't run away from me.” You begged “you've been doing this for months ever since you got with her, it's like I don't know you anymore.” your voice cracked, and he stopped in his place he knows this, and that hurts him but he has his reasons. Pain ran through his body, he needed to go he had to get his thoughts together, he wasn't thinking straight. If he stays longer it might end bad, he can not live with himself if something happens to you or if he calls it himself.  
You waited for him to say something before you continued “Every since you started dating Chrissy Cunningham you've been acting beyond weird. you went over this so many time in your head but still couldn't pieces together what was going on. Before he could stop himself he was on you kissing you again, making you fall back on the couch. She winced in pain but it was long forgotten. Eddie didnt know what to do, what was he doing? He was leaving so how did he end up back attached to you, He tried to pull away but the more he tried the more he hugged you. It's like he was stuck to you. He was gentle and slow like he was saving every moment, he touched you softly as if you would break. His hands gradually move along your body, his every move had you in a trance. 
Eddie started to move faster and became rough in a blink of an eye. It was like a switch turned off, he grabbed at you hard you could feel your stitches pulling and wound pull apart you cried out, but that didnt stop him “Your. hurting. me” You tried to breathe through the pain.  “Stop” you pushed at him, an unhuman growl rattled you. You panicked pushing him harder with the little strength you had. He was grabbing a bitting at your skin. “Stop!”  you shrieked. He jumped back looking around confused and crazed look on his face out of breath. “What's wrong with you?” you asked. He was still baffled “Eddie?” he looked back at you, eyes slowly looking down seeing your top slowly turn red. “Please talk to me.” you haven't noticed it yourself only foucseing on him. 
He jump up from his spot whispering to himself, you were lost in his actions you didn’t say a word you just watch him scared. 
This wasn't the Eddie you knew. 
You slowly got up making your way attending to do so, moving slowly to him lightly touching him. “Eddied .” you called out as if he was a scared bird, Eddie you called out one last time before he whipped around at you “ DONT FUCKING TOUCH ME!” he screamed at you. once again sounding inhuman like a beast, proving that it wasn't in your head earlier. His face was veiny his eyes were hollow black. you jumped back almost falling,  he quickly moved from you before making a b-line to the door opening it taking off his favorite ring putting it down. Looking over his shoulder. “ Goodbye. y/n” his face slowly turned back to normal before walking out.
You were hot on his heels not caring about the pain that run through your body, limping out into the darkness the moonlight pouring down on you. you winced in pain. “Eddie,” you called, 
You watch him make his way to his van, trying to move faster but only falling. “Eddie, please don't leave me.” you cried, he stopped at the door before looking back he looked as if he wanted to say something but he never did with that he jumped in the van leaving you there crying. “Eddie! please!” you drugged yourself across the grass.
“Eddie!” you watch him go further into the distance. “Eddie, please don't leave me.” You sobbed out.
 just like that, he was gone. 
rain began to pour. 
You let out another blood-curdling scream in pain before everything went black. 
You were alone again.

Day 6 - Bratislava (Slovakia)
It's a beautiful day, sunny and breezy, big fluffy clouds in the sky, and a very crisp light that makes everything beautiful.
Tumblr media
And coffee is only slightly more expensive than in Italy, I could cry XD (it also tends to be more acidic, which I don't particularly care for, but still).
There's a good amount of people strolling through the street of the old town, but it's not the crowds of Vienna or even Innsbruck. It's like a good, enjoyable quantity of people.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Bratislava is full of small, slightly hipstery cafés, and boy was this something I missed while in Vienna (mostly because it was raining all the time, and the bigger, fancier cafés have never felt really welcoming to me). Also there's a lot of specialty coffee shops where you can find different roasts and brewing methods, which I like a lot.
Tumblr media
I found this really cute one in a courtyard off one of the main streets (which seems to be a thing I didn't properly understand yesterday, lots of places in this courtyards/alleyways to explore) which has pretty good coffee AND it comes with a bottle of water? Lovely!
For lunch I went to a (very touristy) restaurant built inside an ex theater. It's quite beautiful, and they managed to preserve enough of the original structure to make a good, original setting. There was supposed to be a lunch set menu (most restaurants apparently have them), but there wasn't? Possibly because I was too late, but I couldn't find an indication of the time anywhere. Anyway, after a moment of real frustration, I decided to give in to the touristy vibe and get THE MOST touristic food available: the garlic soup served inside a loaf of bread XD and you know what, it was actually pretty good! Though, as it generally happens with soups served in bread, it was A LOT of bread. Almost impossible to finish. Maybe people share it? I hope so, because otherwise is an immense waste.
It's getting cloudier but tomorrow it might rain, so I decide to go check out Devin Castle, a castle ruin on top of a rock at the confluence of the Morava and the Danube which is luckily included in my 72h public transport pass even if it's outside of the city. (Also included with my ticket: the bus to the Hungarian border south of the city. Should I go to the Hungarian border? Should I cross into Hungary for like 5 minutes? My heart wants to XD).
Tumblr media
The castle is pretty magnificent. You can climb up but the garlic soup in bread is proving as hard to digest as it sounds XD So I just take the road the circle around it, going near the river.
Tumblr media
There's also a path that starts here and goes up along the wetlands of the Morava with panels that explain how the wetlands work and why they are important to preserve. It looked really promising but the path around the castle was in the other direction. It's a lovely walk near the river, and I'm quite happy to be in a more natural environment after all these days spent mostly in cities.
Tumblr media
On my way back I decide to go check out the riverside area of the Eurovea shopping center, which is supposed to be very nice even if it's technically part of the shopping center.
(Also since it's close I decide to also go see the blue church, which is VERY PRETTY)
Tumblr media
I go inside the mall, try to figure out how to get to the riverbank, somehow manage to go down one floor and then up again JUST AT THE RIGHT PLACE to completely miss the part where you have to step outside if you're on floor zero and end up walking for an infinite time inside this giant mall, which is really NOT what I wanted (the weather is still nice! I yearn to be outside!). In the end I manage to get out of the shopping center at the right place and well, the guide wasn't lying when it said this was worth visiting! Very pleasant, very beautiful.
Tumblr media
I'm so tired and I wanted to go back to the hostel early tonight but somehow it's already nine by the time I get back. Oh well XD
Met a lovely Slovenian girl called Nadia and had a nice talk with her to close well the day!

"I just needed to see you." - John Stones
Who: John Stones Request: ‘I just needed to see you’ with john stones please:) Requested by: anonymous Warnings: none
Tumblr media
It was a long day at the café where you worked. Because a colleague had called in sick, you were lastminute pulling a double shift. You didn't mind. Of course it meant it would be a long day, but you liked your job and your boss had given you an extra day off later in the week, so, all in all, it wasn't too bad. You were about halfway through your second shift, when your boss came up to you with some cryptic instruction. "Take a 30 minute break, and sit down at table 5." You wondered what the hell this was all about, but did it anyway. As soon as you approached table 5, you immediately knew what all the mystery was all about. There, clearly waiting for you, sat John. "Surprise." He smiled at you. "Babe!" You greeted him with a happy kiss. "What are you doing here?" "I just needed to see you." He blushed a little bit. "With me traveling tomorrow for our Champions League match and you coming in late tonight, I suddenly realized that I would not be seeing you for a few days. So I came here." "You're the sweetest." You sat down in the chair next to John, resting your head on his shoulder. He wrapped his arm around your shoulders and held you close to him. "Thank you for coming," you said softly. John pressed a loving kiss into your hair by way of answer. You and John were together for years and everyone here at your work knew him, so he was always very comfortable with coming to visit you when you were working. And tonight, his presence during your double shift was just what you needed. "I'm going to stay here all night, right until closing time, and then I'm going to take you home with me." He smiled at you. "Sweetie, you really don't have to do that." You declined his offer even though your heart melted with affection over it. "I have to get back to work soon, and I have at least another two hours left on my shift." John shrugged, but a twinkle played in his eyes. "I can watch you work, can't I? I mean, you watch me work every week." "I guess you could," you chuckled. John leaned in to give you a kiss. "Than I'll be having a great night anyway." You returned his kiss. "And my double shift won't be so bad either."

As if all the content from ZZ and Web from today is not enough, here comes LRLG @ Rumor House to feed us. 🌙🥮
Tumblr media
I did not provide full translations because i’m not allowed to but these are excerpts from the interesting ones + commentary. people were hoping they would post on 9/5, but there were disasters ( earthquake ) going on at the time so we all understood that they were not gonna share. out of respect for what was going on. anyway, let’s look at this fanfic.
“It will be fine after the rain”
"Is it raining tomorrow, look?"
"Send it, don't send it to me"
"Brother X will watch it, I will watch it myself"
"Then look at it now"
"I don't see the weather interface, it seems that there are still meteors"
"It's partly cloudy and there are stars, maybe it's cloudy, I don't know.
"Come back soon, I have to go to work in a few minutes"
"No need to wear your own clothes"
It starts with a full block of little green ( yibo ) talking on the phone. Random sentences that are out of context and overheard. HAHAHAHA! I love how they talk about the weather ~ and no need to wear your own clothes? Ah sure. because these two can totally share 🤍 A BXG said there was a meteor shower the night of Qixi Festival so it might be what Bobo was talking about.
"You're not working tonight, I should get off early"
"I'm a little tired, I'll finish watching the documentary tonight.”
Another block of text by WYB. I wonder what documentary they are both watching! They are so cute!
There is also a part where one Web’s staff tells him “Mr. Xiao doesn’t think you’re rude..” pertaining to when Web tells people what they did wrong. I love this. Because Web is often mistaken to be arrogant/rude when he’s really just straightforward. ZZ understands this. 🤍
After that is like paragraphs of WYB talking to a co-worker or someone and saying goodbye. Telling them to not drink. Also him sharing that he didn’t sleep well. Another proof that whoever this is, should be someone in close contact with Bobo. Most of the past contributions, had lots of interactions that involve Yibo and other people. back in the day, even people from DDU.
👧 : someone picked up today
🔴"Run errands, deliver to your door with 0 errand fees"
🟢"You said you delivered today"
🔴"This is not for you (...) “
🟢"Why don't you sit down?"
🔴"I'm not going to give you”
🟢"Oh it was really hard work"
I LOVE THIS! to have Xiao Zhan do errands for you and deliver stuff? Wow. Only Wang Yibo! And look at ZZ acting all “mad” and Yibo coaxing 😂😂😂 I see there was no change from their 2018 love language of bickering. ✌🏼
After that, WYB is talking to someone and asking them to take GG to eat. That person said they made an appointment already and that made WYB happy. He really spoils GG when it comes to food. I love the idea of him doing these things for GG even if they are not together.
🔴 "Why do you have to change your clothes to eat?"
🟢 “No. I'm wearing the same clothes as you"
👧: Be sure to eat together before your next mission.
I can’t figure this part out, if they were together or eating while doing a video call. There seems to be a mission of them going out — because GG said “going on a mission”. And them wearing the same clothes when in public together! That’s some ninja moves right there! Even fans get confused with them so wearing the same thing is a good cover. so maybe there were physically together. These rumors can get confusing 🙃
There is also a line here where WYB said it's been a long time since the two of them have eaten together. Like it means it's been a long time since it was just two people in the morning. 🥺
See the moon? Full moon, full of love.
This is the last line and it’s so cheesy! HAHAHAHA! I can imagine Yibo saying it tho and GG being charmed af. 🤣
That’s all folks! I will update and link the full english translation once it’s available.
Tumblr media
( adding this art from mugui-laoshi’s recent bobi-zhanbi comic! )

Obey Me Headcanons
The ask: Hello! I'd like to request headcanons for Mammon, Belphie, Barbatos, and Simeon where they try to deal with a reader that can't sleep? I've had days where it takes me 2 hours before I drift off. :'D Thank you~ (Btw, is there a character limit?)
Sent in by: @thecurrator
A/N: Thank you so so much for waiting!! I hope this is what you were looking for! Ahh not being able to sleep is the worst especially when it's hot~ Here's to sweet dreams and better sleeps! And I'd prefer maximum 4 or 5 characters in one piece of writing! If you guys want more or all characters then I'll separate it into two seperate pieces of work! :3 So if you don't mind one bit of work out first then Nope! No limit! :D 
(Also tumblr glitched out so I had to copy and reupload like this! Sorry for the inconvenience!)
Warnings: None! Just fluff :3
Tumblr media
I can't sleep! Ft Mammon, Belphie, Barbatos and Simeon (Separate).
Why was it so difficult to sleep tonight? You had been tossing and turning all night, the blankets beginning to wrap around you annoyingly the more you moved around. How many hours had it been now anyway? You soon began slapping your hand about lazily in search of your D.D.D on your bedside, once it was clicked on you winced a little at the bright light. 4am, already? That's it! It couldn't continue like this much longer, you were beginning to get emotional at the lack of sleep so you did the best thing you could at the time which was to text him and it didn't take long for him to be at your door either.
Mammon
Literally at your door as soon as the little speech bubble appears to indicate your typing to him. It's not like he was debating for a while about texting you.
Honest!
Once he gets permission to enter your room, expect a rather concerned Mammon to stand beside your bed ranting about your sleep Schedule and how you're lucky that he even showed up.
You and I both know that's not true though Mc, he was simply desperate for your company. ♡
"Ya can't sleep? Well yer lucky The Great Mammon showed up to help! Huh? N-no of course I wanna help! Ya my human after all… Just don't go to any of my brothers, 'kay? Just come to me."
Expect him to climb into bed beside you if that's something you're comfortable with! 
He'll wrap his arms around you and pull you close to his chest to keep you safe. After this he'll start rambling softly to you about his plans tomorrow. (All of these include you one way or another! Good Luck!)
Eventually you'll both begin to get drowsy though… That's when he starts rambling about how much he loves and cares for you.
Soon you'll fall asleep to his gentle hold and the soft rumbling of his chest as he speaks.
If the boys find you like that in the morning? No they didn't. ♡
Belphie
This sleepy boy will be there way before you even pick up your phone to text him. (Like that would wake up the Avatar of Sloth… But worth a shot right?)
The door will be opened and You'll have a half conscious bundle of blankets making its way toward you.
"Mc! Why aren't you sleeping? You weren't in my dreams... I couldn't find you. Move to the side. C'monnn… I'm sleepy. I'll help you rest alright?"
From here you'll either be dragged to his room or the attic if he decides your bed isn't comfortable enough for you both. 
If he does choose that its comfy enough (or if he's just too tired to care), then you're going to be joining his very cosy and safe blanket burrito with him snuggled right up to you.
You're now stuck in a blanket made heaven! …Or hell considering you're in the Devildom? Expect a late breakfast and a slightly irritated Lucifer at how late you both were.
A soft kiss to your forehead with a little bit of  his power and you're off into the most refreshing and comfiest sleep ever.
Dreams are filled with you and Belphie going on several adventures! (They're basically dates though~) 
This is his realm after all so he'll be spoiling you for once!
Barbatos
Another one who's already at your door before you could text him to see if he was up. He can't help but check in on the future for you! He wants you to be comfortable and happy as much as possible.
If he couldn't do that, then what kind of butler would he be? (This man adores you and disguises him being a simp for you by claiming that it's just him being a butler.)
In this instance you're staying the night in Lord Diavolos castle and Barbatos' softer knocks made you tilt your head a bit before allowing the person in.
" Ah, forgive my particularly late intrusion, Mc. I actually have a magic infused cup of tea for you to help you sleep. Hm? How did I know you couldn't sleep? If I didn't know when my love- I mean, my lovely guest was suffering then i'd be a terrible butler. Don't you think? Here, have a sip and tell me how it tastes." 
He'd pull up a chair beside your bed and fill the air with light chatter and feeling rather proud when a smile graces your lips.
Finished your tea? The teacup is already out of your way and his newly ungloved hand offers to hold your hand as you lay back down. 
Would you allow him to stay until you fall asleep Mc? He'll keep you safe and ensure nothing disturbs your slumber.
That tea and his thumb rubbing soothing patterns against your hand was enough to have you out like a light all whilst having the sweetest dreams.
Expect a personal late breakfast made by him when you wake♡.
Simeon
The second you press send, you have a lovely reassuring reply that he'll be right there to help!
You don't have to wait long for the soft knock at your door and a gentle announcement that he's coming in! 
This boy literally brought a teddy bear with him just for you (It was meant to be a surprise gift to you but bears are made to help with this right?) 
"Mc, I got you a little something to help! Hey, don't worry. I've had trouble sleeping too before and it's never any fun. Here, why don't you cuddle up with them? I'll be right here… What can I do to help you rest comfortably?"
With your permission he'll gently climb on top of the bed and hold your hand with that loving Smile of his.
Your emotions were running high though due to how tired you were and so you found your way onto his lap and into his arms with your newly white toned fuzzy bear. 
He would never hesitate to hold you!! Please always give him hugs Mc, he adores you so much! 
With a gentle yet deep sleepy voice of his saying he's got you safe, his wings would soon emerge and wrap themselves around you in a protective embrace. 
You're safe with him now and asleep against a literal angel! No bad dreams were in sight.  ♡

i almost set this house i'm caring for on fire because the owner won't let me use the goddamn oven. she's got weird hangups about ovens and refuses to use them, so she uses a benchtop toaster oven. fine enough, i'll just use that. i want to cook a pizza. i double check to make sure it'll fit in the toaster oven. it will. the highest setting on the toaster oven is 220C. the pizza says 232C, but eh, close enough, it'll work. i turn the oven on to 220 to preheat, no pizza in yet. i sit on the couch in the living room, to wait for like 5-10 minutes for the thing to heat up. suddenly, i start smelling smoke. i RUN to the closed off pantry area where the toaster oven is, and the entire little room (the pantry room is through a side door in its own little space, with a benchtop, that the toaster oven was on) is filled with smoke.
i immediately turn the oven off and try to open a window, but their stupid window is tiny and barely opens. i open the pantry room door into the living room and look for more windows to open. there are none. these people have NO WINDOWS IN THEIR ENTIRE LIVING ROOM AND KITCHEN OPEN FLOOR. just an entire wall of glass doors to the backyard. so, i have to open one, letting the 5C cold air into the house, with the heat pump going, because that is also helping fresh the air get in the room. eventually, i have to close the door because i could just see the dollars going out the door with the heat. i turn the oven exhaust hood on full blast, and still have it on, slowly sucking the smoke up.
my eyes and throat BURN. but i was just so lucky that i didn't burn this house down just 5 days after being given the keys. the baking paper wasn't so lucky though.

i have never seen baking paper do this in my life. when i touched it, it crumbled like campfire ashes. this over 220C?? that's 430f, which is definitely hot, but like....a normal cooking temperature??? i cook this pizza all the time at 232 back home with a normal oven. if you can't go 220, then why do you allow me to turn you to 220, you stupid fucking toaster oven.
anyways, i texted her daughter and her daughter said 'nah, just use the oven, better than setting things on fire'. will do, but maybe tomorrow, i think i am all heated out today, no cooking tonight.

the demon of the night. (pt4)
Tumblr media
TW-blood play, curssing, sex talk, drugs
summary- a cook for Elvis comes to realize he is really more to what we know, he is something outta this world like a book or a fairytale.
I woke up to the phone ringing it was dark out “Hello” I said “Elvis wants you up” Jerry said “What does he want ?” I asked “No clue” He said “Okay, I’ll be up” I said, Elvis only wanted to bother me I bet I went to up to the penthouse Jerry wasn’t at the door again I opened the door silence filled the penthouse I turned around the penthouse nothing is Elvis even here I thought “I brought you a gift” I heard him say “Why is it so dark in here” I said he gotten close to me I noticed his eye change again he looked quite pretty his blue-shine eyes “It’s night it’s supposed to be dark” He said I nod as he stood in front me I looked up at him “What’s the gift?” I asked he handed me a bag I looked in the bag seeing a box “What is it ?” I asked “Open it and find out” He said with a smile I opened the bag seeing the dress I’ve been dying for “What- how’d you know” I said with surprise “I have my ways” He said with a grin “Well thanks gosh now I feel bad for earlier” I said with a smile “Don’t everyone has bad days like you said” I nod it was true “I want you to wear tomorrow night” “I’m working tomorrow night” I said “No, giving you the day off for my show” A free show “Well thanks” I said “I made you a hair and makeup appointment tomorrow as well” He said “Thank you once again” I said looking back into the bag “I will allow you to see Kat again” He said “Great, she ani’t that bad she also has a crush on you” I said giggling “Oh I see, she wants me to get in bed with her” He said chucking “Maybe so” I said he stood for a moment “Well, it’s been a long day I’m tired” He said “Me as well, Thanks for the dress” I said he lead me to the door “Can’t wait to see how the dress will fit” I said “Me to” He said with that devilish smile “Goodnight boss”…. I couldn't sleep I went to the lobby to grab a bit to eat, as I was going to my room I saw Jerry and Elvis walking out the hotel, I went back to my room finally tired I crashed.... I gotten up taking a shower (knock knock) I opened the door to see Elvis with a bag of food "Morning" He said with a smile making his way into my room "Morning" I said "I came to drop off some food" He said "Thanks um you are in a good mood" I said with concern "It's show day of course" He said "Which means you have to be at the salon at 5" "You didn't have to do that" I said opening the bag of food "I wanted to, I have to treat workers right" He said,
After Elvis left I turned on the news to keep myself updated on the killer "Two women drained of blood left on ally way" "Two missing women" something is going on here it isn't like how it used to be, for the rest of the day I stayed in my room watching the news I realized it ins't safe for me to be out at night the phone had rung "Hey, just calling to say dinner is at 7 also Elvis says you can bring your friend" Jerry said "Oh okay thanks" I said ended the line calling Kat "Hey, wanna join me for dinner tonight before the show?" I asked "I thought you are working" She said "No Elvis let me have the day off because the show but he said you are more then welcomed to come" I said hoping she would "Sure, I'll come the show starts at 9 anyway" She said "See you later then" I said ending the line...
The day went by way to fast I headed to the lobby getting in the limo heading to my appointment Elvis had made, I looked in the mirror at the finish product my hair was dyed jet black I can tell it really brought out my features I looked in the mirror at the finish product my hair was dyed jet black I can tell it really brought out my features "I love it" I said to the nice lady "I'm sure Elvis will love it" She said with a smile I gotten that funny feeling again... I gotten the hotel Elvis had went to rehearsals I had called Kat to tell her she would come hang with me for a while till dinner "I'm loving the hair” Kat said "You don't think it's to much?" I asked "No not at all it brings out your face a lot more" I looked in the mirror “I can see that" I said... Kat and I gotten ready for dinner I put on the dress that Elvis had got me it fit perfectly I put on my heels doing my makeup diffrent for tonight I put on my eyeliner and lipstick brown to match the dress "Kat you look so hot" I said "No look at you" She said covering her face "Well thank you” I said the phone had rung "You all set?" Jerry asked "I am, Kat had came” I said "Okay great well we all going to dinner so be down in 5" Jerry said "Well do thanks Jerry" I said ended the line "Ready? I said
“Let's go" Kat said we made our down to the lobby seeing Elvis's friends we stood by Jerry I noticed how everyone looked at me I was nervous,We headed to the restaurant getting out everyone rushed to Elvis “Oh lordly he looks so good” Kat said “He does look good” “I told him how you had a crush on him” I said “What he say?” “Nothing but try and flirt he may like it” I said Elvis had heard the whole conversation with strong sense of vampire hearing he turned to look at Y/n looked so beautiful that brown dress fitting her curves just right he thought making his way over to her… Elvis stood in front of me “Are you ready for tonight sir?” I asked “I’m ready I tell ya” He said smiling “Well hello” He said to Kat she stood acting like one of those 50’s girls “Wow um I- I Y/n how can you work for this man without folding for him” Kat said I turned my head so fast “Thank you” Elvis said smiling at her then he looked at me once again “Let’s go on in” He said we followed behind him… Dinner was great we headed back to the hotel I was ready to see Elvis on that stage Jerry told me Kat and I will be right in front I couldn’t wait….The hotel was packed people loved Elvis I was so happy to be here, I watched Elvis in that black suit he looked so surreal he was so beautiful he really could move a crowd I never I thought I’d say this but lord give me one chance with this man he was dripping sweat now singing one of his old songs “Can’t help falling in love” One of his best kown songs I even sung along I looked over at Kat who was in a dazed she loved Elvis I can tell traveling from New York.... The lights had went out leaving everyone including me in shock "Ladies follow me Jerry said taking my hand we went backstage everyone hugging on Elvis telling everyone how great he did he noticed you from everyone he saw the shock in your eyes from what you just watch Kat wasn’t paying any mind a small smile formed on his face he wanted to make Y/n his he didn't care if you worked for him.
After his friends had gave him time to breathe he made his way over to y/n “Enjoy the concert ladies” He asked with a small chuckle “Hell yea we did” Kat said “It was lovely thank you for inviting us” I said giving him a smile I noticed something when he looked into my eyes his eyes were soft with feelings I couldn’t get a grip off but I was willing to find out,Kat and I made our way up to the penthouse for the after party “You know I saw how he looked at you” Kat said breaking the silence “He didn’t look at me like that” I said lying to myself and her “Don’t lie to me, go for it” Kat said “I may be into Jerry” She added “Jerry? He is a good looking guy” I said trying to change the topic, We gotten to the penthouse music was filling the air I loved it I noticed the girl who was here when Elvis snapped on me Kat had slowly made her way over to the mini bar I followed her to keep her sane “I’m alright by myself Y/n” “I wanna make sure I keep you sane” I said with a little laugh “You will I won’t get blacked out drunk not tonight” I ordered myself a drink feeling great I hit the dance floor with Kat “You can dance ?” She said shocked after we got done dancing
Elvis has made his way to the after party he noticed you out of all the girls there he was quickly consumed with fan girls asking questions about him and the amazing preform he had, Y/n and Kat sat with their drinks relaxing enjoy the party “I’m so glad to not be cooking tonight” I said with a small smile “I’m glad you are here would have been lonely” Kat said pouring her a other shot “Yea I’m glad” I said looking around the penthouse seeing girls literally eat Elvis alive I could tell from his facial expressions he wouldn’t to be left alone “Hey I feel bad for Elvis” I said pointed “He should be used to it” Kat chucked “I’m going to take him away from those girls he looks annoyed” I said getting up Elvis noticed Y/n walking over to him with a smile “Wanna go outside?” She asked I quickly nod the girls letting go “See you around ladies” I said giving them a smile I followed closely behind Y/n she had saved me from questions I didn’t want to answer I thank her.
Elvis and I went outside to get away from the crowd getting the night air in our lungs it was so beautiful in Vegas “Thank you for saving me” Elvis spoke softly “No problem just saw that you needed some help” I said chuckling “Oh yea to many questions” He said smiling “The party is good by the way” I said trying to make conversation “You think so? the clean up well be hell” “Oh yea most definitely” I said “I wanted to talk to you about how much your getting paid for all of this” Elvis said “Oh well go on” I said “You are getting way more then any one back at Graceland” He said with a big ol smile “Seriously? Wow um thank you” I said “You are big help around here, without you I’d be eating horrible room service everyday” He said with honesty
Before I could speak Jerry had came out “The girls are here that we invited” Elvis turned to me “Have fun honey see ya around” He said walking inside with Jerry I felt like something stabbed me with a knife why was I feeling this way maybe the alcohol or just the night air I can’t let Kat’s delusions get to me. I made my way inside finding Kat “I’m ready to go” She said “Yea me to” I said “It’s just the cheep booze I’m getting a headache” I nod we left the party “Why didn’t you talk to Jerry?” I asked “I was to scared” She said "Well he isn't that scary he seems like a nice guy" I said "Maybe I'll give him a call, for now I'm going home" Kat said "Well this is my floor, see you around and thanks for coming along" I said waving at her I made it to my room getting ready for bed but gosh I was so horny had to be the air or something... I was fresh out the shower in my robe I turned off the lights and laid in bed I slowy started to touch myself holding my moans in as the best I was to busy playing with myself didn't hear the door unlock I was so close to cumming "Looks like you need a hand" I heard Elvis say I froze in spot I couldn't move "Don't be shy baby" He spoke softly "What- what are you doing in heree?" I said covering myself "I came to check on you, looks to me your doin just fine" He said with a smirk "Can you leave" I said I was so emmbrassed "If that's what you want" He spoke with a devilish tone "That's what I want" I said he nods "You know where to find me if you need a hand baby" He walked out I quickly locked the door behind him and went to sleep.....

Today has been a weird day off. I ended up waking up at like 7 am and couldn't get back to sleep until like an hour before my alarm was ging to go off anyway due to the doctor's visit today. I saw a real MD this time and we had a discussion about all the side effects and other issues I've been having with the new meds. They've lowered the dosage to 500mg x2 a day rather than 1,000mg x 2 a day and we're going to try an extended release version to see if it helps with the gasto side effects I've been having and I'm supposed to do a 2 month follow-up from there. They also wrote me a thing for a batch of X-Rays since I guess most insurances won't let you jump directly to an MRI. I had X-rays done a few years ago but I guess fine, let's get some comparison images. They are also going to give me a referral to a PT for my back issues.
Then I went to Game Stop there in town and I found my beloved Black Series/Gaming Legends Scorch which made me unreasonably happy. I also found another Fixer.
NGL? I low key want to make a trip to San Antonio and just hit up random Game Stops to see if I can find Boss or Sev. And possibly make a trip to Jollybee's and or Half Priced Books since the one in San Marcos closed about two years ago now. :(
Then I came back to town, and went to my chiropractor for an adjustment. I think I might call tomorrow and make one for next week since next weekend my brother and his family will be in town and I'd like to be as pain-free as possible. They want to do a bunch of river and water stuff like go to Schlitterbahn but there's no way I'm up for walking around a waterpark for hours on end and I already told him that.
I also mentioned the weird leg cramps I've been getting on top of everything to my chiropractor and she suggested trying to take a magnesium supplement and have my doctor test my B12 levels which makes sense, I feel like my mom has to take a B12 supplement as well.
And from there I literally came home and just crashed. I fasted thinking they would want to do blood work and you ever get so hungry you get nauseated and the idea of eating actually makes you more nauseated? Yeah, that was me so I forced myself to eat and just kinda went into a youtube/nap off and on spiral for most of the afternoon and going into the evening. It's now 10pm and I'm actually getting some energy for some reason so now I"m going to attempt to write until bed.
I'm very upset with the realization I have to work tomorrow. I'm beginning to question if it would be worth it to work 5 days in a row and have two days off in a row but ugh that just...that's a lot.
Actually....Genji is circling me like a vulture. I think he wants me to lay down so he can have his favorite human pillow to lay on so maybe I won't be writing tonight. LOL

Day 10 - Kosice (Slovakia)
I had some issues sleeping tonight which threw me off my mood, schedule and ideas for the day but I WILL NOT LET THIS RUIN THE REST OF THE DAY. It is what it is, we work with what we've got.
I have a late breakfast with a very nice apricot cake, then wander about parts of the old town that I hadn't seen yesterday.
Tumblr media
I decided to go be in nature some more, and there's a place that seems nice that you can get to by train in about half an hour (though trains are only once every two hours). The ride is lovely, the hills are so beautiful and the vegetation is different enough from what I'm used to that I feel a genuine rush of exploration.
Tumblr media
Ruzin station is super in the middle of nowhere. I manage to get to the river but there's no path, only the road with the cars. I go to the nearest dam where there's supposed to be a crossing into a hiking area, but it has locked gates and a sign that says that you can only enter with permission :(
I decide to walk to the other nearest train station, even if it means staying on the road with cars, because I have two hours and I have to do SOMETHING XD.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Luckily there aren't many cars, and even if this wasn't the hike I envisioned it's also not terrible. I also finally have the opportunity to look at wild flowers (not many flowers in this trip now that I think about it. Is it because it's summer? I feel very ignorant XD)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I end up arriving much too early at the station and the train is about 20 minutes late, but it's a peaceful wait, with a view of the trees and a book to read (seriously I don't think you understand how much of this trips is just... waiting XD). But then! They announce the train and the platform IMMEDIATELY before the train comes :O (in Italy the first announcement is usually 5 minutes before so this felt rather strange! But also it's likely that it is because it's a small station and you just cross the rails to get to your platform? XD)
Tumblr media
An interesting thing I noticed on my way to Kosice but also today is that when a train passes in a station (not only when it stops, even when it's just passing by) the stationmaster comes out of his office and stand in front of the station until the train has gone. And I'm guessing there is or used to be a practical reason for this, but I don't know if it is still the case or if it's just a tradition now? This happens also in very small stations, which would definitely be unmanned in Italy (though now that I think about it the Ruzin station building was closed and I don't remember seeing the stationmaster there, so maybe it's only stations over a certain size/travel capacity?)
I finally try the bryndzové halušky, slovak national dish that I didn't have the courage to try in Bratislava for fear of the effect the cheese was having on me. I think they might be more popular in the Bratislava region than here? Or maybe it's just that Bratislava is more foreign tourism oriented, but they were everywhere there and they are not so advertised here. Anyway, very good!
Tumblr media
Leaving Slovakia tomorrow morning and I'm a bit sad, I really liked it here and I think I'd like to come back and see more at some point.

July 22 Shit DUMP
Feeling okay, a bit restless, not quite relaxed. My eyes could go for a long shut right now honestly. I'm allowing myself to drop the worry about starting school for the weekend. Right now there isnt much I can do about it. Tomorrow I have work and a show to go watch. I was supposed to finally get together with some coworkers and watch the show tonight. But,,, I couldn't. Soo I may be going tomorrow evening alone instead. I'm defiantly going to go, but will try and see if anyone would like to go with me...
Got to have a good kiki with Joshua today, It was nice to get some good time in together. I'm kinda worried about him, I know he'll be okay, but he doesn't seem all too mentally well.... hmm. This evening I've gotten to spend time with Rue. Ran some errands so we had a little car ride time. Planning on watching the newest drew and enya podcast. So far she's having trouble getting off the tik tok scratchers live. I been there though with my sims streamers on twitch. I mean I spent my 20th birthday a streamer singing happy bday to me.
Willow is doing great with training and being the bestest pup ever. Gotten much better a potty. Improving significantly with the jumping on people. Even have had great crate times. There have been a hand full of times recently that I have gotten home and she doesn't freak out in the crate at all. She sits and waits patiently. Next is getting her to listen better with "come here" and "go" Still, she's been amazing among all of the step backs <3
I bought cigs again... Have went through nearly half a pack in a day.. i'm currently inside writing this and also craving a vape hit. I'll just live off of vape air if I have access to it all the time. Yes it would be liiiiit to quit completely. and I'll stop here and there... one day. One day is not right now though, I've got so much change all around. Nicotine is one of the most consistent things lol. so stupid but its true.
I'm attempting to create a consistent use of my notes app for todo lists, and reminders for many things throughout the day. I think I need to customize them to be a little less constant. Bc the truth is, I dont actually have a full todo lists every day. I mean I always have things to do. I can adjust it to benefit my life a bit more impactfull.
Anyways, the day is coming to a close, and it has been nice. Almost midnight (5 till) I hope Rue still wants to listen to the podcast.
Tomorrow will be a great day <3 xoxo zakery quinn
