Jeremy Saffer/ Chris Motionless Calendar

For even more info, go to Jeremy’s tumblr. tmblr.co/Zx4D7yD27EsO

Let’s take a few steps back, about 6 years ago. We were just getting going as a band, had a whole different lineup and were playing local shows as often as possible. We were writing our first batch of demo songs and most importantly, were looking for a new name since at that time we were hideously named “When Breathing Stops”. I popped in the Hellfest 2001 DVD that I had just bought and immediately skipped to watch Eighteen Visions’ performance section and as soon as I heard James Hart say “This song is called Motionless and White” I knew that would be the most badass band name for us. I repeated it in my mind 1000 times and started envisioning saying it out loud at shows as our band name and it just felt.. perfect.

When we first started we were heavily influenced by a lot of different bands but for me personally, I was borderline OBSESSED with bands like Eighteen Visions, Bleeding Through, AFI, It Dies Today and Himsa. I literally wanted to BE Mick Morris from 18V and because they were such a huge influence on our band that’s why we decided to go with MIW as our name. I should be ashamed of myself for admitting some of this stuff but oh well hahaha. I used to sit online for hours and just lurk pictures of Davey Havok, Mickdeth from 18V, Brandon from BT, John Pettibone from Himsa and Nick Brooks from IDT because, like i said, I wanted to BE all of them. I gathered up tons of photos of them that I still have saved on my desktop computer hahaha NO SHAME, you KNOW you’ve done it too hahaha.

Anyway… to finally get to my point of this whole thing, one day in my endless creeping of the internet I came across a Myspace profile of a guy named Jeremy Saffer, who literally took rad photos of almost every one of those guys/bands I previously listed. I was extremely happy because I was so pumped to find his work, and of course as my never ending-goal stacking-self did, i aspired to one day hopefully get to work with him. I desperately wanted to be a part of the same things my favorite bands were. I would’ve given anything to be in their shoes and to work with people that they were working with and playing the shows they were playing etc. About a year went by after initially finding Jeremy’s photos and lurking them every week to see anything new was posted and then I saw the MickDeth 2007 calendar that Jeremy was putting out. I flipped and would’ve bought it immediately but because I didn’t have a debit card or anything, I was shit out of luck.

After several years more of relentlessly keeping a close eye on Jeremy’s photos and hoping one day to cross paths with him as we were growing as a band a touring a lot, we ended up doing a tour with Drop Dead Gorgeous in early 2010 and my time had finally come to take a shot a contacting him. I knew we would be in his home area so even though I was SO FUCKING NERVOUS, I tweeted at him to see if he would write back. I honestly thought he would HATE us, so i was afraid to get something like “fuck your shitty emo band” back or something to that extent. To my surprise, our booking agent at the time saw the tweet and immediately put me in touch with Jeremy. As if my nerves weren’t shot enough, I called him and spoke to him on the phone to work out a time and place where we could meet and take some photos. The next day we got together and he was one of the nicest dudes i’ve ever met. The shoot was completely unplanned but he still knew EXACTLY what to do with us and what we were going for. It was such an extremely surreal experience for me to after all these years be finally standing where some of my biggest influences in music had stood and to meet the man responsible for taking the photo’s that filled my computers hard drive up hahahaha.

At this point i’d love to say.. the rest is history, but i can’t just leave it at that. It’s been almost 2 years since that first time and in just 2 short years Jeremy has become not only my favorite photographer to work with, but one of my best friends in the world. When I look back from the beginning I often think that my life isn’t real. I’m in a position now that I only could’ve ever dreamed of being when we started. With that being said… you can imagine how huge of a personal accomplishment it is for me to announce that now all these years later, I am the one with my own Jeremy Saffer Calendar. It’s not that I have my own Calendar thats a big deal to me. It’s that if you ever told me that some day this would happen, that I would be doing the same thing that MickDeth had done, I would’ve laughed at how crazy it sounded. I know i’ve said it like 10 times already, but it’s just crazy to know i used to be obsessed with things that i’m now actually living. Calendar and photo’s aside, I just want to say Thank You so much to Jeremy for having me be a part of what he does and for being an amazing friend to me. The world is full of some of the most horrible people and I can vouch that he is one of the best dudes on it. We make an excellent team and I look forward to MANY more years of that continuing.

Hope you guys enjoy the Calendar if you pick it up. Thank you for helping me accomplish things I never thought possible.

Hi! I got you for the twilight secret gift exchange! I was wondering what you like about Aro x Garrett? Are there any quotes/aesthetics/etc you associate with the ship?

Hello!

First of all, I am sorry you got stuck with a ridiculously odd rare pair. It was never supposed to be a ship but I love Lee Pace’s character and I was watching BD part 2 and it just went downhill from there to the point I wrote a 110,000-word fic of them...

But what I like about them is how opposite they are.

Aro is a king in a castle with his own royal guard. He is velvet and gold and drinking blood out of beautifully embossed chalices.

Whereas you have Garrett who is rough around the edges, probably still has his civil war rifle as decoration in his tiny apartment somewhere. The kind of guy who knows how to build a fire and whittle wood. You know, good with his hands?

They’re like tea and whiskey, gold and iron.

Them being together just seemed right to me. Like Snow White falling for the huntsman but you know they’re both cold-blooded killers lmao.

I used to listen to The Conductor by AFI a lot when I wrote my fic about them.

The song lyrics I associate with them are below:

- Red, red, drops upon my cuffs, Let me know this must be love.

- Kiss your lover with that filthy mouth You fucking monster.

- There's something wretched about this

Something so precious about this

Oh what a sin

- I think it's time for you to know the awful truth

The truth about me, and the truth about you.

- I wanna be king in your story I wanna know who you are I want your heart to beat for me

Aaaand I think I better leave it there. Sorry for the rambling, I hope this helps.

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969); AFI #73

The next film for review is one of my very favorite Western style films, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969). This is an incredible film that is directed by George Roy Hill and stars the charismatic colossi Paul Newman, Robert Redford, and Katharine Ross. The film won four Academy Awards including Best Editing, Best Cinematography, Best Score, and Best Song. The AFI ranked the male duo #20 on the 100 Greatest Heroes list and the movie was ranked the 7th greatest western despite arguably not really being a Western but a semi-biography that is set in the Old West. As American as this film is, it actually did the best at the BAFTAs where it won 8 awards from 9 nominations and swept the major awards including Best Film, Best Direction, Best Actor (Robert Redford), and Best Actress (Katharine Ross). Before singing any more of the accolades for the movie, let me break down the plot. Of course that means...

SPOILER ALERT!!! THIS MOVIE IS GREAT AND DESERVES TO BE WATCHED AND NOT SPOILED!!! STOP READING AND WATCH THE FILM IF YOU HAVEN’T ALREADY!!! IT IS GREAT TO WATCH FIRST AND THEN COMPARE TO HISTORY AFTER SO GIVE IT A TRY!!!

The film is set In 1899 Wyoming, and begins with a quick sepia toned introduction to the characters. The major players are the quick talking Butch Cassidy (Paul Newman) and the quiet and short tempered Sundance Kid (Robert Redford). The color corrects and the two are riding together back to see their gang and it turns out that one of the other men wants to take over. Butch wins in a fight for the gang leader position by cheating along with the help of Sundance keeping the others at bay. Butch retains his job but he does like Harvey’s idea to rob the Union Pacific train. This robbery takes place with a comical interaction between Butch and an accountant/safeguard named Woodcock. The robbery goes well and the two celebrate at a whore house while watching the local sheriff try to enlist men for a posse.

This is the end of act 1 and it is punctuated by a musical number. This happens throughout the film. Butch rides a bike around to try to impress the lover of Sundance, Etta Place (Katharine Ross), after stealing her away in the morning before the Kid wakes up. It is quite unusual and stands out from the rest of the film as Butch is not the love interest of the woman and the bike does not show up again. The music number is “Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head” by Burt Bacharach with an almost Benny Hill style circus outro. It really exemplifies the experimental nature of the film as the scene would likely have been cut today.

The train robbery went so well that the gang tries it again, but this time everything seems to be going wrong. Woodcock is coincidentally guarding the safe again and one of the passengers starts mouthing off. Butch is able to get into the safe car, but the safe is much thicker forcing him to use a bunch of dynamite to break it. He uses too much and blows up everything sending paper money blowing around in the breeze. To make matters worse, another train pulls up releasing a posse hired by the owner of Union Pacific. This posse kills two of the gang and chase Butch and Sundance into the mountains and the two can’t seem to lose them. They finally are able to jump off a cliff into a river and escape back to Etta. The two are worried that the posse is still coming so they take Etta and go to South America. Cue the end of act 2 so we have a fun musical travel montage.

This is a travel montage shown through sepia tone still photos of the three going to New York and seeing the town before catching a boat south. Again, the music is far out of place for the genre and only works because of the overall experimental feel of the film. It is a very short interlude in slide show format and carnival music, but it does the trick and brings the group to Bolivia.

On arrival, Sundance is not impressed at the conditions. They try to rob banks and are at first held back because of an inability to speak Spanish. Etta teaches them and the two men rob banks becoming known as Los Bandidos Yanquis (American Bandits). Here is another music interlude of all the successful robberies set to pleasant choir music that sounds like something out of an industrial instructional film, which tells the audience the mood is again about to change. After a while, Sundance becomes paranoid because he sees a man that looks like the leader of the posse that drove them out of America and the two decide to go straight and get jobs guarding the payroll instead of robbing it. Unfortunately, the are held up on their first job and Butch is forced to kill which he reveals he has never had to do before. Butch wants to have one more big score and Etta heads back north, sensing trouble with a return to crime, while Butch and Sundance complete a “jungle robbery” of the payroll.

The robbery is a success and the two take the money and the mule to carry it. This is a mistake because a local kid recognizes the brand on the mule and tells the police who also inform the Bolivian military. This is bad news for Butch and Sundance as they are pinned down in a small church by what seems to be a hundred Bolivian men. Butch makes a run for the ammo but both are shot in the attempt and it seems there is no way out. The two continue to banter about going to Australia after leaving Bolivia, but they both know they are done. They load up their guns the best they can and run out into the massive volley of fire and the frame freezes not revealing the final fate of the two. Roll credits.

This seems like a strange way to end a movie, but it mirrors the unknown fate of the real Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. The whole movie is pretty historically accurate as far as what is known about the lives of the three main characters, but the musical interludes and the quippy dialogue make the film feel much more fictional. The movie is also split into definitive chapters with music breaks so it really has good pacing. Fine visual story telling.

There is a strong connection between Paul Newman and Robert Redford, which is apparent throughout the film. Paul is the amiable people-person who likes to talk and be friends with everyone while Robert liked to keep to himself and was all business. It just worked well. Director George Roy Hill used this dynamic again when he had both men star together in The Sting, which was even more successful and garnered 7 Academy Awards. A great connection and an example of a cinematic “bromance” in which two lead male characters act almost like a married couple.

The film seems to be strongly inspired by the works of Sergio Leone like A Fist Full of Dollars; For A Few Dollars More; The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly; and Once Upon A Time in the West. It takes the western film and gives a more complicated plot, more stylized cinematography, and great soundtrack. The Leone films were shot in Italy and didn’t have all the restrictions that American films had in the 60s, so Hollywood looked to these films for content ideas when the Hayes code was finally replaced by the MPAA rating system in 1969. The major difference was American film makers had access to big name Hollywood actors and the actual American west. Also, Leone hired Ennio Morricone who used period piece instruments to give each character a theme while Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid was scored by a hipster and then shot in a way to try and incorporate the music.

In American film history, the year 1969 was very experimental with the Civil Rights movement and the “free love” hippies affecting the box office draw at the same time. The former group preferred a more realistic filming approach while the latter wanted a more psychedelic fantasy. Many of the films blended both and America ended up with The Wild Bunch, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Midnight Cowboy, and Easy Rider. It was a year of genre mixing and experimentation that makes for some fascinating film watching. Really embodies the turmoil of the country and the new age of Hollywood films.

So should this film be on the AFI 100? Of course. It was experimental, influential, fun, and fascinating. It was perhaps the first “bromance” in Hollywood and a well established part of Americana. It also showed that context is completely unnecessary for a song to work in a film. Would I recommend it? How could I not? It is one of the few films that I have seen more times than I can count and still have not had to check the time while watching it. It is fun from beginning to end (sometimes weird, sometimes funny, sometimes dramatic action) and gorgeous to look at. It is a little anachronistic and abrupt with the music interludes, but engaging and enjoyable throughout. Definitely a film on the list that is more than just a time capsule or a lesson in film making (although it is that as well).

song:Bahamas is Afie; All i’ve ever known & Cigarettes After Sex; Crush

Date:2/12/19

Summary:The first moves have been made, The fresh skin had been touched, a romantic dance

and all. What happens now when the music stops and there's only three?...or is there?

Warning:Things get a little sexual but nothing heavy...yet ;)

A/N: Splitting these into two parts but posting them at the same time so don’t panic

Dim lights were Slowly illuminating the scene. A very faint view came as he stretched his eyes open. Cloudy shadows dancing haunting his eyes and there clothes and hair stood out more and more as the faces became clear. He smelled a hue of sweet bread and tarts of all kind to the right of him and to the left was a muffled sound of the large band that played a unsettling but familiar tune. Adam looked down while in the sea of people and saw that he wore a white undershirt along with his black vest and coat. The shorts that he wore reached past the one of his knees but never further than that. He looked similar to the men around him but that he was in all black and white. Not even an ounce of color was to be seen on him. Above him was a painting of the goddess of love surrounded by all her children. A painting that Eve mad not too long ago. “Why must this place haunt me so?”

Adam knew where he was. He knew the night very well too. Out of the corner of his eye he saw a white dress come out of the dancing sea. Then a Yellow metallic looking dress as well. Eve..Y/N.. Taking his hands they smiled wide dancing around the room for what felt like forever. The bands music seemed to now be clearier the more they danced though. He was happy until he looked up at the sealing and saw pitch black. This, this was the part he always dreaded. Cold and disgusting silence flagged the darkened halls of the manner. The chocolate wooden walls coated in the moonbeams that shown through every window that was placed on the path that Adam was walking. The closer and closer that he got the more he felt uneasy, emotional, and just down right sick. The silence..he thought that he could handle it once until he was engulfed in it. Chills ran down his spine but not from the wind that flew in from. One. Open. Window. The window that he thought he locked. Could have sworn he locked every window in his large house..Why was it open- “Adam~”

A voice called him

“Adam~.”

Her! She! The one whom he had treasured so dearly next to his loving wife. Y/N was calling out to him! Finally a sweet song in this minissing lonely darkness! He sharply turned the corner that the open window was at but then the light from the window faded. He looked back to see that the window was no longer there. All that was left was the light that came menacingly behind him like a creature unknown. Even though the orange glow was warm and inviting Adam felt different to it. Wrong, wrong wrong wrong was all that went through his mind. Then the voice called out once more, so sweet

“Adam~. Please come to me won’t you?”

Oh how he wished to be by her side, but he knew what lay behind those wicked doors. He knew the hell and torture that would unleash upon him from the said site that they nearly enclosed.

“Adam~”

His feet! His feet started to move on their own! He tried to stop them by shaking his legs slapping them, even clawing at the glossy wooden walls to try and hand onto something! To try and delay the fires of hell that haunted him, paranoid him, wreaked havoc in his mind for eyons and more! But she kept calling

“Adam~” “No” “Adam~” “No” “Adam” “No,no NO!” “Come now darling don’t be shy. We love you Adam.” “YOUR NOT THEM! YOUR NOT REAL!!!!” “Come to us Adam~”

The voices became deeper the closer he got to it. The fire roaring as loud as ten thousand lions all at once. First his feet and now his hands were to lose control as he opened the door swinging it open. Stepping into the room he closed his eye but still heard his Poor Eve’s Whale of pain and heartbreak.

“Why my Jewel, Why our most precious diamond and more have the bullet in thine’s chest!! Why not be it MINE! MY SWEET ONE NEVER HURT ANYONE!! NEVER HARMED OR THOUGHT OF SUCH VIOLENT THINGS!! WHY!”

“PLEASE STOP I BEG! NOTHING BUT THIS GUILT!, THIS HELL, THIS UNCHANGEABLE ACTION MY GOD! PLEASE!”

Even while he covered his ears the screams could still be heard. Finally losing all control he was forced to look, to open his lids and give up the peace of the darkness he once hated. To look upon the site of his darling Eve holding a lifeless diamond. Her yellow dress drenched in the blood. Along with its white frills on the low hanging collar just barely covering her breasts. The bullet clear as day flew into her heart shattering it into a gore unthinkable. Her right arm sprawled out due to the way that Eve was holding her. Y/N’s eyes had no sparkle, no life, nothing. With all this said emptiness though it didn't stop them from moving from the ceiling to Adam’s shaking figure

“Adam!”

He sprang up and caughted catching his breath as best as he could. Eve rubbed his head and tried her best to calm him down. She hated seeing him like this because she could understand. Nightmares of her own plagued her head nightly when they were apart. Now not so often as they use to. Clinging onto Eve like a terrified child he weeped into her chest, soaking the shirt she wore. She didn’t mind though she was shedding tears herself wetting his hair a bit. Adam too hated his actions. He wanted to be strong for Eve. He hated having to hold onto her like this as if he was a coward in every way and needed his wife to be there for him all the time. She tried to tell him to stop being so hard on himself since he couldn't help it. He was stressed out when these would happen and if not calmed down that the feeling would only get worse. Eve thank god that they found Y/N. Maybe she had nightmares of the past too, Eve hoped in a way she didn’t. What a dreadful day that was. The day they lost their treasured jem. Stolen from them was a daimon of a girl they had just so happens to now got back. The lovers were now willing to do anything and everything to keep her safe. Even if it meant locking her away. Yet they would never do such a thing unless it was drastically needed. Hunters and such. That kind of situation.

As the lovers began to calm down Eve picked up her phone. Adam had looked up at her still laying on her chest trying to see just who she was talking to. Eve on the other hand kept on lifting the phone away from his view.

“Who on Earth are you texting at this hour love?”

Eve laughed

“Just because we sleep in the day doesn't mean that it’s the same for everyone else Adam it’s 3 o’clock, and besides i’ll tell you in just a minute. Be patient please.”

Adam submitted and laid his head back down on her chest listening to her type away. Almost becoming jealous of the attention she gave the phone more than him. To Eve nothing was more adorable than seeing her lover so jealous over a small object.Finally she sat up making Adam goan falling back onto the cold pillow. Eve turned to him straddling him.

“I think you won’t have that old puppy face for much longer starman.”

“How come?”

“Well here lately I have been texting our little lover and~ she's free.. All next. Week! And i scheduled a date for us all!”

Adam sat up wrapping his arms around even to lay beck down with her on top of him placing his lips on her sweet ones.

“My darling your brilliance knows no bounds.”

She laughed

“This I know. But you Mr. Have to come out of that shell. I want us to wear something a little special since it’s been a while.”

“I agree and my article of clothing at the moment.”

He looked to his messy abondance of clothes in his closet that were kinda torn.

“Isn’t all too much the best.”

“Well i’m not saying get fancy just spice it up a bit. We’ll meet her tomorrow so tonight we’ll go and see what we can find. Plus we really need a fill on some of the good stuff. You know so we won’t go all crazy on anyone.”

Adam nodded. Before Even could get up he pulled her back down.

“Do you think I need to shave?”

“I’ll help you with that darling because I love you I do but you with bare skin and your new clothes just don’t suit you like it use to.”

Adam was taken aback by Eve’s bleakness. “I’ll have you know I would still look amazing”

“That you would start man. That you would.”

She kissed his lips and got up to go to the kitchen. Adam was left to see her walk out of the bedroom and down the stairs as he sighed not wanting to get up.

The next day was upon them and the lovers got all dressed and ready for the night. Y/N sent Eve a text saying where the place was and when to meet.

“We leave before 7:30!”

She shouted from upstairs as Adam yelled back in agreeance still looking down at his appearance. He bought a new jacket and top but wore his same old wore out ripped jeans. The places were they were wiped though were couple of spots at his knees and a few more at his ankles. Eve tried to find a dress that suited her but all there were was dresses that seems too short and just not the style she was rather going for. She opted for a cute deep red tank top that was backless until it hit the small of her back and some new white jeans. She thought about having leather to match her jacket but thought it might annoy her a bit with all the sound it would make while walking. Adam didn’t bother with his hair and just let it hang while putting on his shoes and getting his glasses. Eve put hers in a messy bun opting for her white closed toe boots with a side point at the end of them rather than her normal ones. She got her glasses as well and walked with adam to his car.

Once at the place they meet Y/N there not too little after they arrived.

“Woah! Never seen you guys look so dapper. This all for me?”

“Anything for you.”

Adam seemed a bit bold tonight. Eve was surprised but liked it. Y/N did as well

Adam bought a booth for them to all sit down and just talk a little. In the booths they couldn't hear so much of the music since it was kinda far from the dance floor. Y/N sat in the middle of the lovers as they insisted for her to do. Y/N insisted on the three of them doing some shots to maybe have some fun after 30 minutes of conversation. When really she herself wanted to loosen up so that she could hide how nervous she was. Balming the alcohol for her blushing rather than herself. But the lovers refused saying that they brought their own showing the twin flasks that they both had. Y/N understood rather than saying anything more and ordered a few drinks every now and then. As soon as she felt her nerves start to rise up she would order a drink if she wasn’t drinking her current one. 3 shots, 2 medium glasses of wine and a shot of vodka latter and she was feeling a little bit over the edge of tipsy. Then it dawned on her that her words were starting to slow a bit and got even more nervous due to the fact that this was a dat and she wanted it to go so well since it was a first date.

Adam stopped her from ordering another drink seeing that she seemed a bit worried.

“Why don’t we all dance before they close tonight? Come on!”

Eve took Y/N’s hand and before Adam could protest Y/N snatched him by his wrist leading him to the dance floor. While the song was playing Y/N saw that Adam was just saying. She took him by his left hand and started to make him jump around with her. Eve took his other and connected them all in one circle.

‘How long..How long has it been since we last all had a good dance? So long, too long. God, oh old friend if you are forgiving please forgive me for all the sins that I have done, If any pain that I have caused please please let me be forgiven. For her, For My eve and for our future. Please let this angel stay with us. Let her love and be held by our hands. I need her WE need her desperately so. I never want to again lose her. Or Eve..My darling wife..I’m so sorry for not being there with you when you left. For not trying hard enough to call you. How many nights did you cry because of what happened? My strong wife, one day please forgive me one day. Don’t let this be a dream. Don’t let me wake up in a hell where i’m all alone. Please. These women are everything that I ever needed, wanted, and more. Let them be real. Please’

Adam finally let go. He danced with his girls not caring how silly or crazy he might have looked. Neither girls cared, just happy to see his smile and him enjoying some time together.

When the night was over they started to walk out of the bar. Y/N on the other hand was more so stumbling rather than walking.

“Are you sure you don’t want me to drive you to your house Love? I honestly don’t mind.”

Y/N gave it some thought.

“Can I just..crash at your place? I know that we’ve only know each other for 6 months but I know if I go to my apartment I for one, won’t be able to walk up those damn stairs and two, won’t even be able to get my keys into the door. And to be honest one of my neighbors is kinda creepy..So?”

Adam reminded himself to take note of this said neighbor while Eve did the same.

“That’s no problem with us dove. We would love to have you and as long as you feel comfortable is all that matters to us.”

Y/N smiled as she walked with the lovers to the car and layed down in the back. The street lights that passed by kinda made her feel nauseous so putting her head in her jacket as she tucked her head in the crook of her arm she sighed feeling peace. Never again will she ever drink like that and get into anything that moved faster than a snail. Thank god that Adam noticed this and decided to try to avoid every single speed bump that there ever was. Eve took his free hand and put pepper kisses all along his hand and wrist. They were covered by gloves along with hers but that never stopped Eve from shedding her love to him.

“Such a Perfectionist you are star.”

“You know me major.”

Eve looked back to see that Y/N was silently sleeping or, so she thought.

“Eve you know it’s rude to stare at someone while asleep.”

“Never stopped you from doing it.”

Eve chuckled while still looking at you not pulling her attention away for a second.

“It’s her fault really, beautiful little thing. She's rude for being so wonderful.. Honestly.”

“Indeed, our little zombie. I remembered a couple of weeks ago that I use to say ‘The moon blushes whenever you look at it my dear. In it’s own way it’s stunned by your lovely eyes and adoring kissable face. That's why the moon turns autom or a hot orange.’ She loved that.”

“I did too.”

“Sometimes I remember making her laugh..romantic she would call me. What I would do to let make her laugh these days. I fear that all that has faded now.”

“Adam never speak such foolishness in front of us. You know better my love. You know that no matter what you say, think, or do you’ll always make me swoon. Your the most romantic man that I have ever meet.”

Y/N got up and wrapped her arms around Adam’s neck while he drove. He was shocked by this action and almost didn’t stop the car at the red light that was showing.

“Yeah, what Eve said. Your beautiful…”

Adam let a tear roll down his face as he smiled and kissed Y/N’s bare skin. Her sent engulfing him completely alpong with Eve’s. Heaven was all around him and he couldn’t dare ask for more. But he needed to get home right away. Looking at the clock inside the car it was 4:00 AM. Once Adam parked the car Eve helped Y/N to get fast inside the house while Adam opened the door for them both. Once they were all inside he looked all around outside to make sure one followed them to the old victorian house.

“Do you guys have a shower or a bathtub?”

“Bathtub dear.”

“Mmmm good I really do need one- Eve, will you um, will you help me with my clothes?”

Y/N got sober once they got near the house so she was getting to her right state of mind but she didn’t want to slip and fall from still being buzzed. She also just wanted to see what just might happen. Eve was surprised at this question and at her state was very hesitant but as soon as Y/N put on a pout she couldn’t say no. Adam was very jealous about this but he knew why she asked Eve rather than himself. He was always told that he was mysterious and such, he figured that it would take a little more time until she was really comfortable so there he passed in his music room he wondered what instrument to put in his song he was working on while Y/N and Eve were up stairs.

Eve lit as many candles as she could since the lights in the bathroom blew out one day. Y/N thought that it was very romantic still no matter the backstory as to why They needed to be in the bathroom. The glow made Eve look so so beautiful. It was Y/N’s turn to not stop staring. So elegant, tall, intelligent and sweet. Adam had different thing to love too, Y/N wondered just what Adam would do if he were here too..Her mind started to race all sort of sinful ways while Eve ran the water making sure that it was the right temperature for her darling Zombie. When she looked back she saw Y/N just staring off into the distance. Snapping back into reality once Eve called her name.

“What do you think you need help with?”

“E-everything..maybe.please?”

Eve was the one to take the first steps towards her and help her first with her jacket. Y/N looked to the floor for a bit of comfort only to see a pale hand lift her chin up to gaze into the eyes of her Eve. Her sunlight and though she shine similar to it such a star in the sky could never hold a beam to Eve. So she never looked away as Eve sheds her clothes ever so slowly. It felt sweet, beautiful even, Y/N never knew that she could feel such a feeling. Such emotions all colliding at once. She smiled even. Eve bit her lip as she bent down to help Y/N take off her skirt. Now only left in a set of black lace. Having no problem taking in the very delicious view of her small lover.

“I suppose that you are ineed able of taking off, these..Are you not?”

“I am, but will you watch me?” “Only if you let me love.”

Y/N nodded as she took Eve’s hand guiding her over to the toilet for her to sit on as she put on a little show for her. Starting off with her bra she unhooked the back letting it slide off ever so softly.The site was intoxication to Eve as she saw the light dance off her lovers beautiful breasts. Her skin looked gentle and soft as always and the way that her hair hugged her shoulders and even started to kinda nip at the tops of her chest was indeed a site to never unsee. Y/N was more than happy with the way that things were going and decided that there wasn’t any harm in continuing as she let the bra slip and fall to the floor, she wasted no time in shedding off her panties just the same. Painfully slow as she moves her body to an imaginary rhythm of some sorts. God could Eve die ever so happy now. Looking up and down at Y/N she slowly reached out and roamed her cold long blushing fingers from her hips to her breasts and back down again. It felt like a feather was gently roaming all around her body. Y/N moaned out ever so quiet not wanting Adam to hear. She didn’t even know if Adam really liked her how she adored him all she knew in the moment was that Eve did. Eve kissed daintily along her pretty ones skin up to her soft lips. How how soft, how kind and natural and yummy that kiss was to both the women. Filled with love and a feast unlike any other. So many flavors to taste as Y/N let Eve’s tongue explore hers. Eve could finally remember the taste of blueberries, and a hint of something sweet? Wine maybe. She had forgotten though how sweet wine was. Then again, this wine that filled her was unlike any kind. Not eve the oldest of the old could be so damn good, so rich and filled with love and awaited lost Y/N on the other hand could pick up a bit of copper along with chocolate strawberries. As they continued there action Y/N started to shed Eve’s clothes as well. Never breaking the kiss until Eve’s shit had to come off. Getting some air Y/N had looked at the marvelous body of her goddess that now stood up in front of her. Eve wore no bra, She didn’t find the need in it really. Walking over to the bathtub like a vixen awaiting their pray she took off her pants and underwear too. Hopping into the tub. She reached out a hand for Y/N to join her and she indeed did.
