Part 17 of "I'm trying so hard to hate you."
Lets get into itttt
Short chapter, but uh ANGST WARNING!
(yea that's what you're about to read)
Crowley pov bc yea
We drove home in silence, Aziraphale kept drifting in and out of sleep. In the background I had queen playing quietly, not worried about it bothering my Angel but just so I could hear my own thoughts.
I know we weren't supposed to be worried about this whole Armageddon thing till tomorrow but it was still rolling throughout my brain. Like what if I end up losing my Angel? Or if we don't get to see each other again?
No. Right now, I'm thinking about tonight and tonight only.
I pulled up to the bookshop to see no lights on whatsoever so I'm guessing Muriel was off with Maggie and Nina.
Perfect. So me and Aziraphale have the place to ourselves tonight.
I got out of the car and grabbed everything out and brought it inside. Turned on the lights, and started some tea for me and Aziraphale.
He's making me go soft.
After doing all of that I went outside to go wake him up.
"Aziraphale." I tapped his arm.
He started to stir awake.
"Hmm?" He looked up at me with those sleepy eyes.
"We're home."
He laughed. "Home? Thought this was my bookshop?"
"For fucks sake Angel, I might as well live here too. I mean I did while you were go-"
He got out of the car and kissed me.
"We aren't talking about anything sad tonight, yea?"
"Yessss sirrr."
Did I really just say sir? I know he can tell somethings off.
"Sir?"
"Nothinggggg."
He gave me a confused look, but walked past me and headed inside. I followed.
"Are you making tea dear?"
"Yep!"
He smiled at me, with that warm smile of his. The smile I could just melt into.
He walked towards me and put his hand up to my cheek.
"Thank you."
"For what? Doing my job?"
"It's not your job to take car of me Crowley."
"We're dating, of course it is. And there's no way to stop me."
"Hmm, ok. If you say so."
He walked towards a desk and grabbed a book, then sat down on the couch.
We were back into a routine things, sitting in silence, talking, then me going home. But now? It's different. We are dating. I can stay for as long as I want too. I don't have to watch what I say or think because now he can just listen freely. Because now we have us. Just us.
But maybe not this time. What happens next? Well spoiler alert, I fucked up.
I walked over and sat by him.
"What happens if this all fails?!" I blurted out.
"I thought we weren't talking about anything sad?"
"Yea yea sorry..."
"No, I understand you're worried about this Crowley. I want you to talk to me and express your feelings, so...why do you think this is gonna fail?" He seems genuinely concerned like he wanted to hear what I thought.
So? I told him all of it. Everything. How I was worried he might choose Heaven over me. How I didn't think he'd love me anymore after this. And..since I had to go fuck everything up I even started my concerns on how maybe he just thinks he loves me because the worlds going to end.
Fuck.
"What?"
"Aziraphale I didn't mean it I just wasn't thinki-"
"Exactly! You weren't thinking! Why would you even say that stuff? That I just love you because the worlds ending?! That I'd just choose Heaven over you?! I promised you that I wouldn't let Heaven come between us every again, and I've done a pretty damn good job at it haven't I?!"
"Well I-"
"No. I don't want to hear it. I'm hurt, I'm tired, mentally and physically exhausted. I cant do this right now, at all. I'm going to bed. I'll see you in the morning."
"Well that's not fair Aziraphale?!"
"This isn't fair? How. No seriously Crowley. How the 𝗳𝘂𝗰𝗸? Is this not fair to you?!"
He started crying. Looking at the ground, refusing to even turn towards me.
"Aziraphale I'm s-"
"Don't."
He walked upstairs.
Fuck.
Fuck.
What have I done?
so sorry for the angst, dw I'm already writing a make-up chapter

Never thought I would see you have almost the same amount of love for The Grand Inquisitor as another Inquisitor like Reva lol. Anyways, I really don't know whats canon anymore, but ever since I read that comic you had gotten an ask about with The Grand Inquisitor's conciseness or whatever the hell that was about, I think he should be freed from whatever servitude he has in that temple. Kenobi just reminds me how evil Anakin is and TGI should get something similar to Anakin's as well in ROTJ
I mean idk if I would go quite that far, I mean, I have loved the Grand Inquisitor longer than I have even known my husband. Like seriously, when I brought him home for the first time I had to warn him he was about to be face-to-face with a 7 ft tall cardboard cutout of an alien dude and not to worry about it, and then the next morning I got him to start watching Rebels and that helped kick off our relationship. So yeah.
Now Reva is a pretty lady and a shoulder pad queen and the fight scene in the last episode was so *clenches fist* great and I love an angst queen so I've been introducing her to my friends as my "hot new leather mommy" and named one of my new babies at work after her, but deep down, obviously not the same as my long-standing obsession haha.
Yeah I'd love a good comprehensive start to finish origin story for the Grand Inquisitor BUT also in the meantime I get to daydream my own, so... there's always that. Just put on some great tunes, zone out, and get in that headspace. I love that. I used to write about it a lot more than I do now, but I love imagining new scenerios and headcanons and scrapping and re-writing them all the time in my head as I draw. It's the best.

Part (1/2) In the last few days I've binged your writings and they always made me smile! I'd like to request something for Vil, Malleus, Leona, and Riddle's s/o. Since the player doesn't have any magic and is from a magicless world, what if after someone over blots the blot leftover latches onto their negative feelings and since their body doesn't have a natural way of getting rid of the blot it just starts to collect in them.
Part 2/2 Since their body has no way to get rid of blot without magic, by the time every dorm has overblotted their body can't take it anymore and they over blot. Without have magic the blot just takes on the form of a amorphic blob. However their lover s/o is conscious through the whole thing and is keeping the blot from hurting anyone but doing that causes pain to themselves. "Don't get close! I don't want to hurt anyone! I can't do anything right, I couldn't even help u when u overblotted!"
Sorry that was so long! I wanted those 4 to be in a relationship with the s/o who felt guilty for not being able to do anything for them when they overblotted. With a happy ending please.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Thank you so much for reading and enjoying my stuff!! It really means a lot for me :> I hope you'll enjoy this one as well
Tumblr media
Vil's perfect composure is broken and he is feeling so much guilt right. How did he let this happen? You always looked so happy and gave him so much love. And now he witnesses you in such a horrible state. Why do you think so low of yourself?
Vil has to think quickly before negative emotions absorb you completely and as a result, they even can kill you. The only thought about it makes him shudder. No! He will save you despite your objections.
With the help of the other dorm leaders, and his reassuring voice Vil tries to calm you down and lend your countenance, saying that it doesn't matter what happened to him in the past, he's already here fine and in good health, and he wishes you the same. So let him save you!
You gain your consciousness in the infirmary, and beside your bed, here your Queen is sitting, being in his most imperfect state: his hair is messy, his mascara has flowed on his cheeks, and there are bags under his eyes. When he sees you awake, tears stream down his cheeks, but he wipes them away. Vil smiles brightly and greets you.
Tumblr media
What is Malleus feeling right now? Guilt. He's guilty that he hasn't noticed anything that happened to your body due to blot, even in spite of you being magicless. How could he allow this to happen? But there's no time for guilt-tripping himself. Malleus takes a deep breath, collecting his thoughts, and is determined to save you no matter what.
Malleus doesn't like the idea of fighting you or causing you even more harm than you are already feeling, so instead, he tries to talk to you. Just like you always had conversations with him, trying to know him better, in spite of bad rumors surrounding him.
After opening your eyes, the first thing you see is Malleus. But also it's the first time you see him crying. Tears are rolling down on the cheeks of the big and scary dragon. He holds you close to him in his arms, still can't believe that he's succeeded in saving you.
Tumblr media
Leona almost can't believe his eyes. He feels that he's the part of this problem; he should've given you more attention and support. He grits his teeth. He must think quickly about how he should save you, with each past second you cause yourself even more harm. He tries to get through to you with his voice, since you don't allow him to come closer to you.
As much as Leona would not like it, he will have to use his magic in order to get rid of that creature. He will make sure that he won't hurt you.
You come to your senses after feeling someone lifting your body. You open your eyes and see Leona with messy hair and a few bruises on his face. He looks down at you worriedly and then sighs in relief that you're saved. He tells you that everything is okay now and you should rest.
Tumblr media
Unpleasant memories have fallen unto him as he sees you in such a state. But at the same time, he's so shocked seeing overbloting. How is it even possible for a magicless person like you? Fear pervades his entire body, and his heart pounds frantically in his chest. But he tries to recover by taking a deep breath. Time is limited. But he's determined to save no matter what.
He turns a deaf ear to your words about not being able to save him when he overbloted. He's just glad that he got better since then and that he didn't hurt you back then. And even now, Riddle doesn't want to see you in pain. With the help of his dorm members, he promises you that he will rescue you.
Riddle feels so relieved when he sees you gaining your consciousness. He feared a worst-case scenario, but everything is okay. He's so glad that you're alive so that tears of happiness are running down his cheeks.

Never Alone
Natasha x Teen Reader
Tumblr media
Summary:
Natasha had taken the girl under her wing after they saved her from Hydra, she was practically her mom now and saw the girl as her daughter. When her daughter can't stop the thoughts running through her mind, telling her she's ungrateful, that she should be happy, she has everything now and she shouldn't be feeling like this; she takes sleeping pills, maybe too many, just wanting those thoughts to stop and her mind to be quiet. Natasha finds her in that state and they have a talk. No shitty "someone loves you so your depression is better now" trope ending because that's not how it works lol
Word count: 2,625
Warnings: depression/talk of depression, and taking sleeping pills to be unconscious.
this isn't my best writing job, but i figured i'd post it anyways
.oOo.
I should be happy, I have everything now. I have a home, a new family, although both not conventional. I live in the compound with the rest of the avengers, who are also my new family. Natasha has taken me under her wing since I first got here and she's become kind of like a mother figure to me.
But I still don't understand why I'm not happy. I'm not at hydra anymore, it's been months since I've been rescued. I have a good life now, but why can't I appreciate it? I feel too guilty to tell anyone about how I'm feeling. They've done so much for me, why would I go and tell them how unhappy I am? They're going to think I'm selfish.
My brain keeps running and running and I can't get it to stop. It's only 11am, not even the afternoon yet, and I want to go to sleep just so I can have a break from my thoughts for a while. Natasha's on a mission, so what's really stopping me from going to sleep now? I pull the covers up over my shoulders and clutch tighter onto the teddy bear Natasha gave me.
Although it seems childish, I never got to grow up with stuffed animals or dolls and things like that. I remember in Hydra all I wanted was a teddy bear, that was it. I would've been completely happy if I had gotten one, but I never did. When I started getting closer to Natasha and opening up to her, that slipped out. The next day she gave me a teddy bear, which still seems to smell like her and I'm not sure how. It's turned into a comfort item for me, it smells like the safest and most caring person in the world and it keeps me from feeling totally alone.
30 minutes pass and I'm staring at the wall, unable to go to sleep. I let out a frustrated sigh and turn onto my back. I think for a moment, until I remember the sleeping medication I have in my bathroom cabinet. I get up and grab the bottle from the cabinet and take it back to my bed with me. I don't bother to read the label recommending how many pills to take, and just open the water bottle on my bedside table and down four of them. I put the bottle back on my bedside table and lay back down, willing myself to just go to sleep.
When my mind is still running just as fast as before 15 minutes later, I'm on the verge of tears. Why can't my mind just fucking stop, I'm so tired of this. It's so overwhelming. My thoughts have started to shift towards Hydra and more memories are brought up as I think about how much better I have it now, but yet I am still unhappy.
In Hydra my bed was practically just a blanket on the floor, now I have a comfy queen bed. I would be terrified every time I heard noises, thinking someone was going to torture me or perform more experiments on me. But now, hearing noises just means my new family is up and around the compound. At Hydra all I wanted was a teddy bear, I imagined myself holding one every night just like other kids did in movies. And now I have one, one given to me by my mother, the person I love most in the world. So why can't I just be happy?
Tears start to fall down my cheeks as I sit up and pour 3 more pills into my hand, downing them with water again. Hoping this will do the trick, I lay down again and close my eyes. I clutch onto the teddy bear as my mind keeps racing even more it seems now and my silent tears turn into sobs.
5 minutes later it seems that the pills are starting to catch up to me and I finally slip into sleep. My brain is quiet, I'm not conscious and aware of anything going on, my mind is finally at rest.
"Bubs?" I hear a soft voice. I feel someone shake my shoulder lightly. "Come on baby, please." The voice starts to sound more desperate now. I finally come to the realization; that's Natasha's voice. She pleads once again for me to wake up and I can't stand hearing her sound so sad and desperate, so I will myself to open my eyes despite being very tired.
"Nat?" I say groggily, my eyes finding hers as I open mine. She's squatting by the side of the bed so I'm able to see her face. "Oh thank god." She mumbles out and falls to her knees beside my bed, leaning over and wrapping me in a hug. "What are you doing?" I slur out, barely audible.
"Baby, you wouldn't wake up. I thought I was going to have to take you to the med bay." She leans back again and now I can see her eyes are rimmed with tears. I'm still out of it, barely comprehending anything that's going on, but I hate seeing her cry. "Why are you crying?" I mumble while reaching my hand out to her cheek.
Her eyes flash with worry at my reaction. "Bubs, what's going on? You wouldn't wake up and now you're out of it." Her eyes scanned the room and they eventually landed on the bottle and water on my bedside table and she was able to put the pieces together. "What time is it?" She quickly checks her phone before putting it down on the table. "It's 2:30. How many of those pills did you take?"
My eyebrows knit in confusion at the time. "But I just fell asleep at like 11? Has it only been a couple hours?" She nervously gulps and her hand runs through my hair. "Little love, how many did you take?" She asks again. I snuggle further into the comforter tiredly and mumble out an answer. "I took four at first and then I couldn't sleep so I took three more I think."
"Is this the first time your waking up since then?" I nod with a tired yawn and her hand comes down to my cheek. "Bubs, I think it's a whole new day since you fell asleep. You fell asleep yesterday morning and it's afternoon of today." I tiredly shrug, not fully comprehending what she's talking about.
She sighs as my eyes start to flutter shut again. She sits on my bed and slides right under my body, my head resting on her stomach now. "I'm going to call Bruce, you seem fine physically but I'm not risking anything." She says talking more to herself than me. I shake my head and attempt to grab her hand to keep her from grabbing her phone, but with my tiredness I just barely get a hold on her forearm.
"Little love, it's okay. You'll be okay, just let me call super quick." I shake my head no again. "Just let me sleep." I grumble into her stomach. "What-" I cut her off again. "I just want to sleep, that's all. Please mommy, I need to get away. I don't want to be awake." I start to tear up again as I plead with her, my eyes drooping shut and I'm not even sure how audible I am.
She pauses for a second, and finally returns her hands to my hair, her fingers stroking it back soothingly. "Just go to sleep little love, I'll be here when you wake up." My arms wrap around her waist and I feel the teddy bear placed in my arms between us, and with that I fall asleep.
Unknown to me, Natasha quickly calls Bruce as soon as I'm asleep. She tells him what happened, trying her best not to cry. Bruce assures her everything will most likely be fine, I just need to sleep it off. The amount I took could be harmful, but the brand and type of sleeping medication is kind of weak, so I'll most likely be fine.
She thanks Bruce and puts her phone away again, giving all of her attention to my sleeping form. Her hand goes to my cheek and her thumb soothingly rubs back and forth. She starts to think back to what I said before I fell asleep. "I need to get away. I don't want to be awake." That repeats in her head over and over. She understood what I meant, she's gone through enough and has been in the same position too many times, she understands.
Her heart breaks and she finally allows the tears to fall down her cheeks. Her hand holds my head head to her stomach almost protectively, as if she's trying to protect me from others, from the world, from my own mind. She keeps holding me until it's time to fall asleep herself, being too stubborn to move for hours, even if that meant practically all day. She shifts so she's laying down now, my head on her chest instead of her stomach.
By the time I finally wake up, on my own this time, it's morning the next day. I slept for practically two whole days. Before I move I notice the weight on the back of my head and that I'm not alone. My eyes widen at the realization Natasha is here, when did she get back? Even while she's sleeping she can sense that my breathing has picked up or I'm panicking, and her hand on my head immediately massages my scalp to calm me, and she's not even consciously doing it.
I relax back in her hold and try to wrap my head around any memories I may have of her coming back, but I don't have any. The last thing I remember is taking more pills and then going to sleep. Shit. She probably knows what happened, she's a spy after all.
Eventually she starts to stir under me and her green eyes open and meet mine. She immediately sobers up and it's almost like she was never asleep at all. "Bubs, are you okay?" I give her a small but reassuring smile and nod. She sighs in relief and gently guides my head to her chest. "Please never do that again baby, you scared me."
I don't say anything and I hear her sigh. We lay in silence for a while longer, with her stroking my hair back. Eventually she speaks up. "Baby, do you remember anything from before?" I think back again for a moment. "I remember not being able to fall asleep, so I took some sleeping pills."
"Okay... And what about me coming back?" I give her a confused look and shook my head. "I was awake for that?" She pursed her lips and sighed. "Bubs, I need you to be completely honest with me, please. No more lying or trying to hide." She looks deep into my eyes and I nod, nervously gulping.
"When I came back, I found you asleep, which wasn't a big deal at first. I tried waking you up to tell you I was back, since I know that you always like to know when I get back. But you wouldn't wake up. I tried waking you up for almost 5 minutes, and I almost called Bruce or Dr. Cho. And then when you finally woke, you were barely even awake, it was scary bubs. When I told you I was going to call Bruce you stopped me. You went on about how you just wanted to sleep. You didn't want to be awake and you wanted to just escape. Baby, I didn't know things were that bad. Please tell me what's going on."
I lay my head back down on her chest and let my tears fall again. "I'm sorry." I sob into her chest, holding onto her waist tighter. She coos and holds me tighter as well, running a comforting hand up and down my back. She hands me my teddy bear and I hug it between us, not even caring how childish I look. "I just- I didn't want to be awake." Was all I could get out. She nods and patiently waits for me to finish.
"I couldn't stop thinking about Hydra. I should be happy. I have everything now. I have a family, a home, my own room, I have a teddy bear, and I have you. Why am I not happy mom?" I start sobbing again and cuddle further into Natasha. "Baby, you don't need to feel obligated to be happy. You're pushing yourself too much. Just because you have things now, it doesn't make you ungrateful to be unhappy. You shouldn't be pushing aside you're feelings like that."
I just shook my head and went on. "No. I should be happy. I'm so ungrateful. I have everything I've ever wanted. I would sit in my shitty bed at night and dream of what I have now, and now that I finally have that I can't even be happy about it? I feel so guilty." She shakes her head. "No. You don't need to feel guilty baby, stop that. Look, when I came here after being in the Red Room, I fell into the exact same position you're in."
I look up at her in confusion. "It took me a long, long time to settle in here, it took years. I had depression, which I now know. But at the time I didn't, and believe or not I felt the exact same way you're feeling right now. I wasn't happy, no matter what I did, and I felt so guilty. These people had given me everything, and all I wanted was to feel happy. Almost like I had to prove to them that I was happy, to show them that I'm thankful for them."
The gears turn in my head, that's exactly how I'm feeling. "But, I got diagnosed with depression, and I realized that it's not my fault. It's not anyone's fault. I wasn't ungrateful. Bubs, I went through the exact same thing, and I really think we should get you seeing a psychiatrist. I don't want you to have to go through this, and I'll do everything I can to help you."
I shifted so my arms are wrapping around her shoulders instead of her waist, sobbing into her shoulder. Things are starting to make sense, not by much, but a little. "Thank you, thank you, thank you." I whimper out. Once my tears finally calm down I speak up again. "Will I be happy soon then? Will a psychiatrist fix me?" She gives me a sad smile.
"Unfortunately baby, no. You may not feel happy for a while, but that's okay. You don't need to be fixed, please don't think of yourself like that. A psychiatrist will help get you a diagnosis so it will be more manageable in a sense. I know how much you want it too, but this isn't something that just gets fixed overnight. However, I will be there every step of the way, right by your side. You can come to me with anything, always. And I'm sorry if I made you feel like you couldn't before, but from now on we'll be completely honest, okay?"
I nod and hug her shoulders tighter. Hearing Natasha's words, her reassurance, made me feel more comforted. She understands. I'm not alone. And I never will be again, not with Natasha. "I love you mom" I mumble into her neck. She smiles and tightens her grip on me. "I love you too bubs, always."

delicate; b.barnes
chapter seven - “the king is dead”
delicate masterlist
word count: 1.7k
synopsis: shuri has awful news. the reader is terrified but bucky is strangely calm. the world is turned upside down, and not in a good way.
pairings: bucky barnes x fem!reader
[A/N]: this was so fun to write omg get ready it’s finally getting interesting!!! (as always, OC on my wattpad @ / typicaldaze)
Tumblr media
Months had gone by since that day at the lake. Countless therapy sessions had been endured, several hard questions asked, many many issues worked through. Bucky suffered through a few more anxiety attacks along the way, but they never hindered his resolve, thanks to (Y/N). They had made progress, good, solid progress. Bucky was pleased; (Y/N) was thrilled. It's hard to see change when you're the one going through it. However, to the person guiding that change, every step forward is recognized. She was proud. She was genuinely proud of him. He wasn’t “fixed,” he still had struggles, but he was a lot better off then before.
There was something peculiar, though. Their relationship was strictly professional, (Y/N) knew that. However, she couldn't help but feel as though along the sidelines of their progress, they had grown to become friends. She knew that, clinically, this was not appropriate, but there were no corporate guidelines she was working under. She was helping him. So, what would it matter if after all this was over, they were friends? What would it matter if his therapist also operated as his friend? Hell, she didn't even have an official therapist position here! Sharon just sent her to help. (Y/N) had decided she didn't care about the boundaries being crossed. Nothing ever went wrong with someone gaining a friend. It's fine.
Regardless, the two of them had thoroughly addressed the anxiety and the PTSD, and he now officially had both diagnoses. He understood himself and his brain so much better, and with (Y/N)'s help, he not only acknowledged his disorders, but accepted them. She taught him to not see them as the enemy, not something that was wrong with him. They were just a part of him, same as his brown hair or blue eyes.
Bucky was so much more open now. He was less on edge and more comfortable, especially around her. In all honesty, he was usually his most comfortable with her. He had coping skills and everything!
This was all grand and good, but (Y/N) hoped with everything in her that it wouldn't be ruined by the present disaster.
-
"I thought he was automatically supposed to be king?" (Y/N) asked, confused.
She was at her weekly meeting with Shuri for Bucky's treatment plan, and the young genius had just told her she couldn't make it next week due to T'Challa's coronation.
"He is," Shuri started, "but it's Wakandan tradition to open the position up to a dual. So, his rule isn't set in stone."
"Oh... What if someone... challenges him?"
"Then they will fight! However, I have no worries. T'Challa is a great warrior, and though I doubt anyone would challenge him, he would win if they did."
(Y/N) admired the faith Shuri had in her brother. She could tell their bond was strong.
"Couldn't you technically challenge him?"
Shuri revealed a kind of devilish smirk that only a sibling can muster. "Oh, I have thought about it. But I am much more useful in my lab, and T'Challa wouldn't know what to do with himself if he wasn't in charge."
(Y/N) looked back on the memory anxiously as she stared in horror at the look on Shuri's face. A wicked mix of fear, grief, and stress drained all the color from the princess' normally dark, beautiful skin. Shuri had always radiated confidence and composure; seeing this change worried (Y/N) deeply.
"The King is dead."
Her face became void of any expression and all she could process was fear. She thought she gasped but she couldn't remember breathing out again. Her brain was frozen. (Y/N) was in a foreign country that just lost its monarch. She was alone, and all the people she was relying on to protect her just had their kingdom invaded and taken over by someone with the word kill as part of their nickname. She was almost certain that this would be her end.
"Dr. (Y/L/N)?" Shuri said unsteadily. "Did you hear me?"
"Y-Yes I... What are we going to do?" her voice was weak and small. Pathetic and afraid.
Then, thoughts of Bucky crossed her mind. What would happen to him? He could fight, she supposed, but he doesn't have any weapons or gear and he'd be against an entire regime. What if they killed him? What if they tortured him? Different scenarios quickly flashed through her brain, but she could only one concrete thought.
I have to find him.
"My family and I have a plan, but we can't take you with us."
Any remaining semblance of hope dissipated from (Y/N)'s body, and she swore she could feel her veins quiver with apprehension.
"What?"
Her voice felt far away.
"It is not ideal, and I'd never leave you unless I had to. But Agent Everett Ross is here. It's a long story, but as you know, he can't find out about Sergeant Barnes. He can't know that either of you are here. If we take you with us, it could compromise everything we've been working for," the nervous princess explained.
"So... what of me and Bucky?"
"Again, it's a long story, but there's a... sort of fallout shelter - I guess you could call it - that was built years and years ago when the first tribes of Wakanda were constantly at war with one another. I will give you supplies and directions, and you two must go there and remain hidden until this is all over."
Fantastic. (Y/N) would get to play Cold War nuclear fallout in Wakanda.
"How will we know?"
Shuri gave her a somber look. A look of uncertainty and immense guilt.
"I wish I could apologize enough, my partner, but I do not know. I promise I will try to contact you as soon as I get any information, but for now we must hurry. We do not have much time."
With that, Shuri took (Y/N)'s arm and quickly led her her outside. It was late afternoon and the air was beginning to cool. They ran, locked together, until they met the Queen under a large tree among the outskirts of a nearby forest. The woman looked just as shaken up as Shuri.
(Y/N) could see bags of different shapes and sizes at the base of the tree. She could only hope whatever was in there was sufficient for survival.
Shuri immediately embraced her mother, but the moment was short lived as she then bent down to gather the bags.
The Queen placed her hands gently on the sides of the psychologist’s face. "I am so sorry, child. This does not involve you in the slightest yet you are swept up in the middle of it."
Shuri handed her mother the bags and they both geared (Y/N) up with all her supplies. It was heavy. Really heavy. She realized she was carrying supplies for two. Then, there was panic.
"What about Bucky?"
"Barnes doesn't know about any of this yet. I thought it best he heard it from you," Shuri expained, "and we cannot afford anymore delays. Us or you. You must go now, tell Barnes what is happening and go. I wish I could be more help, but we simply don't have the time."
(Y/N) nodded, trying to process all the chaos. She was internalizing every bit of it. As a result, she was once again, frozen.
"Dr. (Y/L/N)!" Shrui exclaimed.
Her head shot up, snapped out of it.
"Go! You must go!"
And with that, (Y/N) took off. She had been in Wakanda long enough to know her way around the castle's surrounding land. Her speed didn't last very long as she was carrying for two, but she tried all she could to keep going as quickly as possible.
Eventually she found herself outside of Bucky's living quarters. She didn't know what to do, so she knocked.
An array of different emotions went through Bucky's face. At first he looked pleased, but then he saw the horror etched into (Y/N)'s features, and the bags she was carrying. He could tell something was wrong.
"What happened?" he asked, surprisingly calm, while immediately taking some of the bags from (Y/N). He still only had one arm but that really didn't seem to matter to him.
She was out of breath, face flushed and eyes wide.
"The King is dead," she said breathlessly. "Someone... someone killed him a-and took over."
Bucky didn't look as scared as (Y/N) felt. In fact, he looked... totally fine?  She was so out of it she wanted to curl up in a hole and allow natural death. How was the anxious man she was accustomed to so at ease? The world was flipped upside down and (Y/N) had no control. She wished there was a word stronger than fear because she couldn't even describe what she was feeling.
"Okay," Bucky said, gently taking another bag, leaving her with only one to carry, "What did Shuri say? What do we have to do?"
She shook her head, trying to regain her breath and her composure. "There's um - there's a fallout shelter thing we have to go to. Here."
She handed  him a crumpled up piece of paper that Shuri gave her. A map with directions. (Y/N) knew he would've been better at locating it than she could at that moment.
"Alright," more of the calm voice filled her ears. "Anything else?"
"There are more details, but - we don't have time," she sighed, restlessly. Her voice began to shake ever so slightly. "Bucky, I'm so sorry. We have to go now. I promise I'll tell you everything."
"Okay," he said again. He bent down slightly, looking her directly in the eyes. " (Y/N), we're fine, okay? We're good, and we're gonna be fine. I will get us there. Are you ready?"
She nodded, steeling herself.
Bucky looked at the map, then glanced up in the direction of the shelter. He took (Y/N)’s forearm firmly. She gave him a look, confirming she was ready. And off they went.

Can’t Take My Eyes Off You
Tumblr media
Pairing: Dabi x villain!Reader
Warnings: yandere, obsession, non-con, stalking, mentions of human experimentation, non-consensual drug use, lots of swearing.
Words: 1841.
Summary: Running away from the lab where you had been experimented on for years, you have no choice but to join the League of Villains to escape from the government. Of course, you don’t expect things to go smoothly, especially when one mutilated son of a bitch just can’t leave you alone.
P.S. I’ve suddenly remembered Rogue who had been my favorite character once; the heroine’s Quirk is partly based on her ability.
My dear @navegandoaciegas​, this is my first attempt at writing Dabi. Hope you’re going to enjoy reading it ❤
_________________
"Fuck, how much can you drink at once, birdie? Ain't you scared to pass out in a place full of men?"
Oh God, it was that smug bastard again. For the past couple of days Dabi couldn't get off your back for a full damn minute.
"Men? Here?" You opened your eyes and raised an eyebrow at the man whose face was right above yours as he leaned on the back of the couch where you laid. "I see just a couple of kids and one burnt corpse who can never fucking shut up."
"Oh? Wanna see how well can a burnt corpse fuck you up?"
Always up to a challenge. You rolled your eyes at his obvious display of hostility despite the fact he'd most definitely lose against you. Besides, Shigaraki would barely enjoy you two ruining the League's hideout, and upsetting that asshole ready to go berserk any moment certainly wasn't one of your priorities.
"Just go fuck yourself, would you? I'm not in the mood to bark at you."
"Well, then don't. I didn’t come here for that, actually."
This was something new. He suddenly became calm as you studied his grotesque mutilated face inches away from yours. Your expression didn’t betray any emotions either since you weren't shocked or disgusted by the way Dabi looked: you've seen worse in the laboratory, and repulsive things had long stopped looking repulsive to you.
"What are you here for, then?" You asked him, trying to remember if you finished that second bottle of sake or not. Since the time you accidentally got one of those useless Quirks, you couldn't get drunk anymore - now strong alcohol only made you sleepy.
"I've always wanted to ask why the fuck are you wearing these." Dabi pointed out to the black leather gloves laying on the coffee table in front of you, and you rolled your eyes again. One more useless question.
"In this team of no-brainers you're the last person I expected to ask me this question." Groaning, you moved up a little to take more comfortable position and stared at the man above you intensely.
"Don't you want to gather as many Quirks as possible? If so, why wearing gloves when you can only get a Quirk through touch?"
You were close to snapping at him, and it certainly made Dabi look even more smug.
"Who the fuck do you think I am, a garbage bin?" You barked wishing you could teleport the bastard somewhere to Hawaii. "I only take Quirks I need, and it isn't easy to find those in that damp of useless abilities regular citizens have. Besides, some Quirks are quite dangerous for their owners and I'd prefer them not existing at all. You, of all people, should already get that, Pretty Face."
He smiled at you, but you saw his hollow eyes sparkling dangerously at your last remark, and you felt his body emanating heat he could turn into his famous blue flames within a second. Nasty shit, that what's you thought of his Quirk. Who on Earth would want anything like that? You doubted anyone but a true psychopath could really appreciate something as fucked up as Dabi's ability to burn anything and anyone, himself including. You definitely didn't want to use his Quirk despite already taking it as almost all of those belonging to the League of Villains. It wasn't intentional, though.
"You'd better start watching your mouth, birdie. You ain't back in the lab." His smile grew wider as he saw your expression darkening at the mention of the lab.
Fucking son of a bitch. You bet he'd go insane during the first month being locked up there.
"Huh, calm down, dear. I think it's better we get along."
You sent him a glare wishing you could throw his overconfident ass out of the window. Dabi loved messing with fucking everyone, Shigaraki included, but he was still a valuable member of the team. Killing him would do you no good.
Showing him your middle finger, you put your head on the pillow and took the half-empty bottle of sake. Thank goodness you didn't finish it. You hoped Dabi would vanish by the time you were done.
You spent a few minutes in complete silence as the man kept leaning on the couch and watching you drinking while you did your best trying to relax. Why the Hell was Dabi stuck here with you? Didn't he have any other things he should be doing now? Was he here to get under your skin even more? Shit, you just wanted to be left alone. You wanted it since the time they brought you to the lab, but since then somebody had always been getting on your nerves one way or the other.
"Seriously, what do you want from me?" You grunted as you opened your eyes again and stared at Dabi's face. "You wanna take the couch or what? I ran out of sake if you're here for it."
There was that smug smile again. Saints, the guy had been creeping you out with his long intense stares for quite some time, but today he was even less bearable than usual. He definitely wanted something from you, and the feeling was making you uneasy.
"You wanna hook up, birdie?"
You thought you were gonna choke on air when you heard him saying that. What? Seriously? Did he hurt his head so bad last time heroes attacked? So, that was the meaning of those stares, then? He thought you were the one he could stick his dick in. Wincing from the thought like from a toothache, you squeezed your eyes shut. The guy was clearly mad.
"Are you out of your mind? Why would I want to hook up with anyone?" You huffed with irritation and realized Dabi was having way more fun than you.
"Don't tell me you're actually a virgin."
"You think I can be a virgin with the life I'm having?" You sounded more bitter than you thought you would, and the man above you chuckled. He was getting on your nerves more and more with each passing second.
"Then why not? Sex is a good way to relax. You certainly seem like you could let off some steam." You flinched when Dabi extended his hand to you, but he had only brushed of a lock of your hair out of your face. "I bet I can help you with that better than most of the team."
"Sex is painful, and I don't like pain. Go have fun with Toga, she seems more into that than me." You narrowed your eyes at him, your hand almost touching his neck if the villain decided he'd go further without your consent. His stupid grin going wider was making you more and more mad.
Of course, he wouldn't go to Himiko. That asshole had his own type, and she certainly didn't fall into that category. Why did you? You had no idea, but you doubted he would ever lay his hands on you. Yeah, you knew what sex was, and it had nothing to do with pleasure like in those stupid romantic novels you once bought. It was humiliating and painful. If you had a chance to get back to those who did it to you back in the lab, you'd rip their hearts out of their rib cages.
The expression on your face didn't seem to faze Dabi even the slightest bit, and you rolled your eyes in irritation. Apparently, he wouldn't give up unless you showed him you weren't some doll he could play with, and Shigaraki was probably going to get real mad at the both of you this evening.
All of a sudden you felt some strange tickling in your muscles you had never felt before. What was that? Confused, you quickly glanced over the room to see no one except Dabi still on his spot. What was that? Was it some hero's work? Had they found your hideout? No, it couldn’t be. You'd hear them, feel them before somebody even set their foot on your territory. It wasn't a hero.
Unwilling to wait for any surprises to happen, you used a regeneration Quirk, the one you were gifted on your 14th birthday so you could heal yourself after they ran the tests without troubling a healer too much. Strangely, the Quirk did nothing about the tickling, and you felt your legs getting weaker. What the fuck was that?
As you raised your head to ask Dabi for help, you suddenly realized he was eager to see what you were doing. He looked like he enjoyed watching you in such state, confused and even frightened, your knees slightly trembling as if you became weak within a couple of seconds.
It was him. He did something to you. The bastard had the nerve to do something to your body so it'd be easier to handle you.
"What have you done?" You hissed at him while he chuckled, pointing at the bottles of sake on the table. "Have you poisoned my drink?"
But the regeneration would work in that case. You knew for sure.
Running his finger around the shell of your ear, Dabi hummed with content, "Poisoned? Come on, who do you think I am, an Evil Queen? That's just a little handy potion that has a tendency to slowly accumulate in your body. Makes you a little softer, don't you think?"
Oh. Oh. That's why he was always watching you. He had no idea when the effects would start to show. Did he fucking realize it could happen in the heat of the battle when you needed your Quirks the most? Did Dabi have any idea what would happen if heroes managed to lock you away again?
"Seems like you planned to abandon me if heroes attacked, didn't you?" You gritted your teeth when Dabi got on top of you, his hands on your chest as he caressed your body like a lover would, his hot fingers getting under your clothes.
"Of course not. I'd play your personal hero and save your stubborn ass the trouble of murdering everyone."
While you desperately wanted to kick him off you came to realization you weren't able to even stand up, your arms and legs so weak you could barely move while Dabi had no problems stripping you out of your clothes, his hands on the your thighs as he took off your pants.
Shit, shit, shit. You couldn’t use any Quirks to hurt him, all of them barely responding to your call. What was that potion? Why nobody in the lab prepared you for this? How on Earth did that shithead obtain such a dangerous thing?
"If you hurt me, I'll rip your brain out of your skull and bring it to Shigaraki as a present."
His chapped, disfigured lips brushed against your neck almost gently when the man murmured, "It doesn't have to be painful, birdie. I'll show you how much fun we can have together."

Hi
Hello...one and all. It has been a minute, huh? I started this tumblr when I was in like 7th grade and I am now a sophomore in college. Time flies when you're having fun (mostly)! I'm really not even sure if anyone even visits this page anymore (lol) but I'd like to say thank you (!!!) for being so kind and allowing me to express my out-of-this-world love for Queen with fellow Queenies out there. To all of my mutuals who I've since lost touch with, I hope you're doing well and thank you for putting up with weird, 14/15 year old me. And to everyone else out there: thanks for all the support over the years! I'm literally writing this for no reason because I have no current plans of ever deactivating this tumblr, but I just thought you all should know that I am very much alive and that this tumblr is nothing but good memories for me.
Well, I suppose I should dip back into the abyss, but in the meantime just know: my youth is yours <3.
P.S. If you want to see what I'm up to now, follow me on twitter @/jtsupremacy. I'm super active over there, although I don't post about Queen very often. But, hey, I'd love to talk to anyone who cares enough to DM me about Queen anytime!

Dream World (Part 2) ☾ Baekhyun
Dream World (Part 2) ☾ Baekhyun
Genre: Fantasy AU
Pairing: Baekhyun X Reader
Word Count: 4.4k
Requested Tags: @itsbaekhyunsbutt​ @strawbaeri-s​ @bbyunz​
| Part 1 |
Tumblr media
The Kingdom of Akron had changed drastically in a few months time. When news from the royal court spread through the lands asking the elves to come back home, most of them hesitated. It must be a trick, they thought, the queen must be up to something. Baekhyun knew better. The queen's sudden change of heart was Y/N's doing. She had written the happy ending she had promised. "Happy" was relative. He was content that he could ask his people to come back to Akron, begging them to trust this to be real and not some sort of plot. But deep down, Baekhyun was devastated, as this was only possible because of a woman he was never going to see again. He did his best to push these thoughts to the back of his mind so he could get through his days. But he couldn't chase away the memories that plagued his brain at night. He questioned his own sanity often; he missed her so. More often than not, he dreamed of her as well. It was his own personal prison, inside his head.
It was getting burdensome for him to pretend he wasn't completely and utterly heartbroken. His people looked up to him for guidance, he couldn't afford to show his weaknesses. But truthfully, he was finding it difficult to care as well. So eventually he made one of the toughest choices he's ever had to make; he resigned from his position as ruler of the elves, to someone far more capable, his best friend and mightiest warrior in their army, Chanyeol.
After the crowning ceremony, as his people  celebrated, he had tried to make a quiet exit from the festivities. Elves enjoyed drinking ale and playing dangerous games once inebriated. He wasn't in the mood to play them. Unfortunately, as he worked his way through the people, he kept being stopped by folks who wanted to thank him for bringing them home and ruling them after his father's death. He waved their words away, simply responding with "I didn't do much." Which was the truth, he hadn't actually done much, but he couldn't tell them that. So he kept pushing his way through to leave but once he was almost out, Chanyeol appeared in front of him. Baekhun sighed.
"I just need to get out," he said, looking up at his tall friend, hoping he'd understand.
Chanyeol's eyes studied the prince with careful thought.
"You're leaving, aren't you? It wasn't just about ruling, you don't want to be in Akron."
Baekhyun was surprised that his friend had read him so well. He gave him a small smile.
"That was a pretty good guess," he started, then his smile faded, "Everything about this place reminds me of her. I can't do it anymore. I'm going back to the mountains. I heard there's still a group of elves staying there because they don't trust the Queen. I will try to convince them that it is safe to come back." An excuse he knew, but it felt better to think of his journey as a mission and not as him giving up and running away from the memory of her.
Chanyeol read the truth in his face as clear as if he were telling him. "If that's what you need to do to feel better then do it. But you've never been a man that loses hope. Not once have I seen you surrender. Why start now?"
"What are you trying to tell me, Chanyeol? I told you there's nothing I can do. She's gone... forever." That last part hurt to say, he almost felt like he couldn't breathe every time the truth hit him.
"You were set on keeping her here once, remember? You searched high and low for a spell to do it. Then finding the ingredients," Chanyeol shuddered at the memory, "getting the troll's heart was some nasty business," he shook his head, "anyways, what I'm trying to say is, you found a way once. If you really can't live without her, then do it again. Just find another way."
Baekhyun stared at his friend. Could he do it? Could he defy the laws of nature.
"I used up all the magic," he said, defeated.
Chanyeol groaned, exasperated, "Magic doesn't just vanish from existence. It's all around us, in the trees, in the river, in every fiber and molecule of life, there is magic. It is sown into the very essence of the world. You just have to learn how to harness it. I'd start with the nymphs, if I were you."
Baekhyun thought about it. He had nothing to lose by trying. He was set on leaving Akron anyways, why not leave with some hope as company?
Finally, he smiled. At this, Chanyeol was relieved, because it was the most genuine smile he'd seen from him since he lost her. He took this as a good sign.
"Now go get your princess."
~
Meanwhile, you were wrestling with the tape that had sealed and kept safe your possessions inside the cardboard boxes. Unpacking had become quite the chore as you couldn't find the box cutter or literally anything with an edge to cut through the tape. Your new apartment looked like a war zone and you expected to come out as the victor. If only you could find something to...
"Keys, of course!"
You grabbed your set of keys dangling from the hook by the door and searched through the label on the boxes to find the ones that you wanted to open first. The one with "bedroom" written on it with a black sharpie caught your eye first. After cutting through the tape, you opened it to go through your belongings. It was mostly books and novels. You smiled, that is, until you spotted a familiar blue cover with stars on it. Your dream journal. You hadn't opened it since... well, since that time. Writing after losing him was unthinkable. There was no way you could ever write another character to life, let alone love them as you had loved him.
You reached for it now with trembling hands and a racing heart. The journal was in pretty bad shape. You had tried getting rid of it once, throwing it in a lake during your spring break vacation, hoping the tightness in your chest would subside. Watching it sink under did the opposite. You had rushed into the water to save it. To save him. Or the memory of him. That afternoon you hurried back home, to find a way to dry and save it from being completely ruined. As painful as it was, you didn't want to forget him. He wasn't part of the real world, but he was real to you.
You opened it now, for the first time, flicking through the wrinkled pages. It was still readable but only to you, the one who had written every word and sentence on it. The tightness in your chest had become a permanent resident and you no longer let it have that much control over you. You ignored it this time as well.
With tears burning in your eyes you started reading. Akron. The Queen. Baekhyun. You smiled at the part where you guys met.
The dress was too revealing, you worried, staring at your reflection in the mirror. You kept pulling up at the fabric over your bust , hoping it would show less cleavage. Your maidens hovered about with jewelry and powders and anything that could make you look more regal. The shortest one, with the dazzling smile and gentle fingers, placed a gold crown on your head. You weren't used to the weight of it. It felt awkward. You thought it made you feel off balance.
Three knocks at the door announced a new visitor.
"Come in," with the words, you also breathe in deeply, maybe a little too quickly as you become dizzy from the action. Your're still in a daze when he walks in.
Plain brown pants. Plain brown tunic. And that's all that is plain about him.
As you finally fix your eyes on his face, your heartbeat picks up its pace. His smile was the first thing that drew you in. It was playful and kind at the same time. You were confused as to how he managed that. His eyes were an ordinary brown at first glance, but the way they held your gaze was anything short of extraordinary. It felt like he could see right through you all the way down to your soul, where you kept the most private things about yourself hidden. You found yourself at a loss for words and at the widening of his smile you knew he could tell he had an effect on you.
"Your majesty," he finally spoke, "my name is Baekhyun, I was told I will have the pleasure of working as your servant from this day onward."
You will never forget the way he spoke then. As if he knew you, your heart and he was ready to take it for himself. You should've known then that he'd succeed. How could he not? He was confident, funny, kind and sometimes a little naughty as well. There was nothing predictable about him. He challenged you almost every occasion he could.
There was only one time you could recall when he was none of these things. Just one time, when his confidence left his shoulders, and his  eyes couldn't seem to find yours. You remember how quiet his voice was as he reached with trembling fingers to hold your hand for the first time. You'd been crying, reminiscing the scene at home. Your parents had been arguing. But the situation had escalated quickly. Words turned into shoving, shoving turned into objects being thrown. The next thing you saw was your mom slide across the dining room floor and into the kitchen, her body hitting the refrigerator. She'd dislocated her arm from the force. You were compelled to go to the hospital with her and lie about how she got hurt. They always made you lie for them. Once back home you'd had to clean up the broken glass and the blood stains on the floor from someone's bare feet who had walked over it.
He'd cried with you as you told him, holding you in his arms like you were his to hold. And you let him, because when everything in your world felt wrong, the warmth of his embrace was the only thing that felt right. His strength was the only thing keeping you together. Just that once did he hesitate. Only that time did he hold back. The next time you dreamed of him, he stole his first kiss from your lips. He never hesitated after that.
So how could you have stopped the beautiful force of nature that was Baekhyun from taking your heart? Just as the sun comes out every day and the moon reflects its light at night, just as everything that happens without fail, it was inevitable to fall in love with him.
But now all that was left of him was this dreadful looking journal and the memories in your head, which will wither away with time until you question if it even happened at all. His eyes will fade like the ink of your favorite purple pen on these wrinkled pages. His smile will become jaded by reality, distorted by the smudged words on a piece of paper. But the worst part was that if he felt for you as he had confessed the last time that you were together, then he was feeling as hopeless and heartbroken as you were. That thought made you sadder than anything else.
You closed the journal gently, as to not cause more damage to it. Then you walked to your room and stored it in the top drawer of the night stand by your bed. You needed to stay focused on the task at hand, which was to unpack everything still stored away in boxes. Pushing thoughts of him out of mind, you went back to work.
Once you are more or less done putting away the stuff in the kitchen, you lay down on the carpeted floor of the small living room. You had no furniture for this space yet, so it was empty. You closed your eyes slowly as they had become heavy with exhaustion. You knew if you kept it up for too long, you'd fall asleep right there. That's how tired you were. So instead, you force yourself to stand up. You decided to take a warm bath and then head out to bed.
You rarely did nice things for yourself, but candles had always been a frivolous need of yours. You lit one in the bathroom as you watched the tub fill up. Once the water was high enough, you undressed and got in the tub. You laid down, resting your head back on the wall as the candle spread the sweet aroma of coconut sunrise in the air.
At this level of relaxation, it doesn't take long for you to drift off into a soft dream.
You were surrounded by tall trees that towered over you like some kind of mythical giants. You glanced up at them, wondering if they would suddenly come to life. They didn't, but the thought that in a dream it was possible, kept you alert to your surroundings. Looking away from them, your gaze comes down to what's in front of you, a vast lake. There were tiny lights shimmering over the water, flying into the air and swirling in perfect unison like small tornadoes. It took you a few seconds to realize they weren't lights.
"Fairies," you whispered. But as if they had heard you speak, they stopped moving, and this made it easier to see their tiny little wings flapping to keep them in the air. You kept quiet and eventually they continued their flight ritual.
"Pixies, actually."
Your heart stopped. Literally, skipped a beat, painfully reminding you that it was still in your chest.
You recognized the voice. You'd know it anywhere. But you were afraid of looking back. You were afraid of hoping it was him and not see his face. You hadn't dreamed of him since the pen incident. So you stayed like that, frozen in place, fear rooting you to that spot.
After a few seconds passed by, you felt it. A hand, resting on your arm, the touch light as a feather, bringing goosebumps across your skin.
"You said writing was the only thing getting you through tough times, how have you survived this long without it?"
You took a deep breath, still unable to move but ready to respond anyways.
"I can't write another you."
That was all you could say. You knew he'd understand the implication of your words. You couldn't risk loving anyone else. You couldn't risk forgetting him. Or replacing him. You wanted your heart to be his and no one else's.
"Then write me again. Write about all the moments we should've lived together. Write me into life."
What was he saying? Why did he want you to torture yourself by writing about him?
"But it hurts," you find yourself saying, tears welling up under your eyes.
"I know, princess, I know. But I need you to write me as if I was never gone."
You turned around then, half expecting to find him standing there, but you were met by a rush of wind that carried his last words as a whisper.
"Write me."
You woke up from the dream in a start, looking around your bathroom like he might appear there from thin air. But as reality set in, your heart sank. Of course he would never be there. Even in the dream you couldn't see him. You brushed away a stray tear from your cheek. He wanted you to write him. About him. You didn't know if it was really him or just your brain playing games with you again, but it was the only sign you'd received from him in months. You wanted to believe it was really him. Your broken heart needed to hope it was him.
So that night you wrote him. Every detail. Every habit. Every look. The way that his lips taste. The hint of gold in his eyes when sunlight washed over his face. The feel of his hand on your cheek. Anything that you could remember about him.
You also wrote about moments that never happened. You wrote him as someone who walked in the real world, facing your kind of problems. Working a 9 to 5 to pay the bills. Running to the corner store to get you that chocolate ice cream you'd been craving since the week started. Eating ramen several times a week when money was tight. Sitting on the couch, the T.V. on in the background as he watched your face  instead of the screen. You wrote about anything you could think of. Anything that you wished you could do with him. You painted his image with vivid and ordinary description, because you wished to live the simplest and most common every day moments with him.
You lost track of time again, as you often did when you were writing. Your hand ached by the time you stopped. You could feel the beginnings of a blister on your middle finger from where you'd been holding the pen with fierce purpose. The shot of adrenaline that hearing his voice gave you had fueled you for hours. But now exhaustion was pulling at your eyelids, making it hard to keep them open. With a sigh, you laid down in bed and hid your body under the covers. You fell asleep then, staring at the ceiling, hugging your journal close to your chest and with a wish in your mind to meet him in your dreams again.
But no such thing happen. You had a dreamless and uneventful night. When you woke up, it was from the sunlight hitting your face because in your tiredness you had forgotten to close the blinds to your windows.
"Stupid sun," you mumbled at your pillow. Covering you face with a blanket to give your eyes time to adjust to the brightness.
"What did the sun ever do to you, princess?"
You froze. Literally, stopped moving in your bed at the sound of his voice.
I've finally lost it, you thought, I've finally lost my mind.
That must be the only explanation. His voice, had been so clear it almost sounded like he was next to you. Writing about him last night must have driven you over the edge. You laughed at yourself and where your imagination had taken you. It wasn't funny, but still you laughed, because there was nothing left for you but to do so, or you'd end up in tears.
"I missed your laugh," you heard the voice again.
This time you didn't laugh. You couldn't. The voice was closer and with the tone you were able to visualize what his face would look like as he spoke. He'd be cupping your face in his hands, his eyes holding yours as if to project his honesty through that one look. It was such a beautiful image the one in your brain, that you could couldn't move to confront it. If you indeed had lost your mind, at least you'd have his words to keep you company.
"Y/N." This was the second time you had ever hear him call you by your name and upon hearing it, your heart did somersaults. You pulled the blanket down, ever so slowly, afraid of meeting an empty space besides you.
But it wasn't empty. Baekhyun laid there, on the side of the bed that was always unoccupied. Until now.
You felt your eyes widening, but you couldn't open your mouth to speak. You didn't know what to say. You were speechless.
Baekhyun smiled as you stared at him. Reaching a hand to touch your face. His touch was warm against your skin. You almost closed your eyes to enjoy the sensation, but you were afraid that he'd be gone when you opened your eyes again. So you kept staring at him, but finally found the will to speak.
"Is this a dream?"
He smiled wider, his eyes twinkling with mischief as he moved closer to you. He only stopped when his face was an inch away from yours. Your breath caught in your throat with the proximity. He was so close you caught a whiff of a woodsy scent that you remembered as exclusively his from your time in Akron.
"Baek-"
Before you could finish saying his name, he trapped your lips with his in a kiss. You didn't want to close your eyes. You didn't want to end the fantasy. But he kissed you fervently and you found yourself losing the will quickly as you kissed him back as desperately. His hand moved under the blanket that covered you and found your waist, pulling your body closer from there until it was completely against his.
As quickly as he started the fire, as swift he was about putting it out when he stopped kissing you. You almost whined in protest and he chuckled in response.
"Does that feel real enough to you?" he asked.
You opened your eyes to meet his beautiful brown ones. The sun was hitting them just the right amount and you could see your reflection in them. You pressed a hand to his face, touching him for the first time.
"How is this possible?" You wanted to ask other questions too, but this was the most important one. "You told me... you told me you used all the magic in Akron. That I would never return once I left."
He smiled, that smile of his that you loved. The one that made him look years younger than he is. His playful smile. "There is always more magic to be found and to be created. A friend reminded me of that. You couldn't come back to me, so I came to you instead."
Your heart was beating so fast that you wondered how it didn't just stop working. There was no way it was healthy for it do that every time you were with Baekhyun. You were still confused and he was being very vague.
"But how did you do it?" you pressed.
He reached for your hand, the one still touching his face and intertwined your fingers with a look of awe in his eyes.
"I didn't. You did," he paused, his gaze meeting yours, "you actually wrote me to life".
You thought he must be kidding, so you waited for the punchline. But his one never came. He was serious.
"I did what?!"
He smiled at you with so much fondness, seeing you as confused as you were.
"You wrote me to life, Y/N. First in your dreams and now here."
"You're real? Like real real?" you knew you sounded idiotic, but it was something hard to wrap your head around.
Baekhyun was a character to a story that you poured a lot of love and time into. Some writers like to say that their characters have a life of their own. But it's just an expression, it's supposed to mean they basically write themselves. They come without effort. But what he is saying is very different. What he is saying sounds so incredibly crazy yet wonderful and though you don't want to let yourself feel hopeful, a seed had taken root in your heart. A seed that you hoped would bloom into reality, a reality where you could live a life of happiness with the one you love.
You knew he could see it on your face, what you were thinking and what you were feeling. So he finally stopped being cryptic.
"I am real. While you wrote me and created a connection between me and the real world, I had one created from Akron to here. The field with the lake where I spoke to you last night, well, the water pixies conjured a portal from our side and you fabricated one from this side, through your journal. Now I can come and go as long as you don't destroy the journal."
He was being truthful, not a note of humor in his expression. You couldn't believe it. It was something out of a fantasy novel. Before you knew it, tears were clouding your vision. Baekhyun reacted as quickly as usual, out of pure instinct, arm draped protectively around your body. You hid your face in the crook of his neck to hide your crying face from him.
"I can't believe I get to live with you." You words are strained with emotion, but you say them anyways.
"I can't believe I get to love you," he says in return. "I thought... I thought I'd lost you forever." His voice cracked at the end. This made you pull back to look at his face. You were surprised to see him crying as well. You knew his pain and that sense of loss because you had felt it yourself.
"Baekhyun." You didn't know what else to say.
"I love you, princess. In Akron and here, in a world I know nothing about."
You smiled at this. The most genuine smile you had ever smiled before. You finally let yourself think about a future with him, because for the first time, it was possible.
"I love you too. I can't wait to teach you all about it. There's a lot you'll love and... well, like you told me once, it's not all rainbows and butterflies."
He smiled at that and you did as well.
Overcome with emotion you kiss him again. Because you can. Because you thought you would never get to do it again. You kiss him and he kisses you back. You both try to project how much love and devotion you have for each other. Your love is literally one from stories. Made up. But more real than anything you had ever experienced in your life. And now you will get to live it and test it and maybe even get that happy ending people like to dream about.

warnings: intense fluff so prepare yourself coz ben is a d o r a b l e in this
based on two prompts: "that's what your wearing?" and "i tested positive"
word count: 4.5k
thought i'd do a little christmassy themed oneshot considering it was ... yakno... christmas; it’s been in my drafts for a while so there’s no better time than the present (no pun intended😊) i had fun writing this so i hope you have fun reading it! :)
Tumblr media
Christmas had always been the same; through the 27 years of your life, you stuck to your traditions. You would always spend the time with your whole family, with the traditional Christmas roast and gift-giving. You loved it; you were extremely close with all your family, and spending time with them was always cherished since it only happened twice a year. However, there was one part that you couldn't stand. The worst part of it all was the fact that every year you were the only adult who was yet to find a relationship. All your siblings, your parents, aunt and uncles, grandma and grandpa, even some of your older cousins; they were all coupled up. You had even tried to convince them one year that you had finally found yourself a man; of course, you had simply bribed your best friend to pretend to be your boyfriend for the one day. He, however, was not as good of an actor as you thought he would be - caving in after only 3 hours in the household by accidentally spilling that he was in fact gay.
Though, this year you didn't have to pretend; you had finally found a man who you truly loved. He was the spitting image of what you considered perfection and you were sure he was the one. You and Ben had taken your relationship quite quickly, you had only been together for 10 months and yet you had already moved into a house together and adopted a small puppy. Though, you didn't see it as a particularly bad thing; you knew for certain that he was the man you wanted to spend the rest of your life with, the man you wanted to start a family with, grow old with. And you were also pretty certain that you were that woman for him; I mean, that's what he told you every single day. Every morning as you sat around the table to eat your breakfast; every lunch time when you'd facetime him from the office; every evening when you were snuggling in bed and he just had to mention it, which of course often led to more. You were absolutely hooked onto him, like a baby to a bottle; you simply couldn't resist him. So showing him off to your family was assuredly what you were most looking forward to this Christmas. You had already met Ben's family, and so it was now his time.
The two of you were about to leave to drive down for Christmas Eve, and the nerves were beginning to set in; what if they didn't like Ben? What if they thought you were both moving too fast? What if the nieces and nephews didn't want to play with him? What if they all took one glance at Ben and thought he could do better? You saw Ben as an angel, but you didn't know about them; after all, your mother had always wanted the perfect step-son.  She had been pretty adamant about it from the start. Nevertheless, you brushed the nerves off and paid attention to curling your hair. Your concentration was broken, however, by the sight of Ben entering the bedroom in the reflection of the mirror in front of you. You grinned widely at the sight before you, or rather behind you, as the strapping blonde man strode in wearing what you noticed to be a rather formal suit considering the fact you were only attending a Christmas dinner with your family. In fact, it was extremely formal considering the fact you were only attending a Christmas dinner with your family; meaning you couldn't help but giggle.
"That's what your wearing? Baby, we're going to my parents for Christmas, not a wedding!"
"What? I wanted to impress them!" He exclaimed rather seriously, which made you chuckle before standing up off the little stool to walk towards him to give him a small peck on the cheek; which funnily made him blush like a madman. That was something you loved about Ben; he seemed like every day he saw you was as if he was seeing you for the first time again. Somedays, he acted like a horny teenager who couldn't resist your touch. Other days, he acted like you were made of glass, as if you were the most precious, fragile thing on the earth which led to being peppered with little kisses and hugs of every form whenever he saw you. And other days, he acted like he was made of glass, and would blush or smile every time you even placed a gentle finger on him; and you had a strong feeling, this was one of those days. "I mean, what if they don't like me, or they don't think I'm good enough for their daughter? What do we do then? Because I love you, I really really love you and I want to spend my whole life with you but I can't do that if your family doesn't like me because-“
"Baby, I know they're going to love you, okay. Maybe not as much as I do, but trust me; my mum is going to take one look at you and she'll treat you like the son she never had. You look gorgeous, and as much as I am admiring the way you look in this suit, you need to change. Swap the shirt and tie out for a tshirt, and the tapered pants for some of your nice jeans." you encourage him, stroking his upper arm lightly and smiling up at his face which looked extremely defeated. You could sense the anxiety emanating from his body, he was just as nervous to meet your parents as you were for them to meet him. But you didn't tell him that, because you didn't want to worry him anymore than he already was. He simply nodded, taking a deep breath and unsleeving his arms from the blazer so that he could unbutton his shirt. You pushed his hand out the way and did it yourself, after seeing the way his hands were pretty much shaking. He still preoccupied himself, beginning to pull his trousers off to fasten the pace, as he knew you needed to set off soon to make it in time.
Once he was dressed in more appropriate clothing, which you deemed suitable for a first impression, you were finally able to leave for your parents. The car journey over there was a little less stressful, as Ben had began to calm down and forget all about his little moment in the morning. However, as you stood outside your parent's house, your own nerves began to set in. You had arrived a lot later than you expected to, having been stuck in traffic for a lot of the journey. Your hand trembled as you went to ring the doorbell, Ben stood a step behind you so that your parents would be able to greet you first. The door swung open after a few seconds, revealing the bright cheery face of your mother.
"Darling, hello! It's lovely to see you! Come in, come in!" she cheered, stepping to the side to allow you and Ben to enter. You gave her a warm hug as you walked in, in which she responded with a small kiss to your temple. Your father entered the room too, a smile emerging on his face, and you couldn't help but laugh as you noticed the apron he was wearing; it was the same one he wore every single year, with an awful christmas pun which to be honest was not a suitable apron to wear around children.
"Mum! Dad! I've missed you so much! Sorry we were late - the traffic was awful" you squealed, pulling your dad in for a hug as well, until you looked to the side to see Ben standing there incredibly awkwardly as you greeted your parents. "Mum, Dad, I'd love for you to meet my boyfriend, Ben"
"It's nice to meet you, Mr and Mrs LN. Thank you for having me, especially during a time which is meant for spending time with family" He greeted, holding his hand out to shake my fathers, but rather he pulled Ben in for a hug. You then realised you had completely forgotten to mention to Ben quite how open and friendly your family were, meaning he had quite a shocked reaction to the sudden embrace.
"Please, call us Lydia and Michael. And you are part of this family Ben; any friend of YN's is a friend of ours, lovie. Now why don't the two of you head up to your room and settle down - that way, you'll be awake in time for tomorrow morning when the kids come up and completely wreck your lie-in!" Your mum whisper-yelled, chuckling as she handed your suitcases over to your dad to help you haul them up the flights of stairs to your old childhood room that you and Ben were planning to stay in for the next two nights. Admittedly, you were a bit embarrassed considering you knew your mother hadn't changed anything about your room since you were 18 and moved out to University, so you were in for an awkward and humiliating moment when Ben first saw the posters of Roger Taylor and Queen all over your wall like you were some kind of crazy fangirl. Which, of course, you were but you didn't even think about having to explain that until now.
After a good 10 minutes of Ben laughing at your seemingly-passionate devotion to the band, you had finally settled down in your bed, which was thankfully a double. It was rather cold, being wintertime, so you and Ben were cuddled up extremely close together under bundles of blankets in an attempt to keep some warmth between you. You spent a majority of your nights curled up like this, Ben's touch providing a haven for you. And just like every other night, you ended it with the same words.
"I told you they'd love you, you practically had my mum wrapped around your finger!" You grinned, poking Bens stomach jokingly as he released a low chuckle at your point. He knew you were right, because you had mentioned that your mother was often more removed from people if she didn't like them.
"Okay, okay; I was worried for nothing, I'll admit it! But I had every right to be!" He defended himself, his warm breath on your shoulder sending shivers down your spine. You couldn't help but cuddle closer, wrapping your arms around his torso and place your head in the nook of his shoulder.
"I know, I know; I really do love you Ben"
"I love you too"
*****
You were woken by the feeling of a small body pouncing onto your stomach, shouting and cheering filling the otherwise silent room; "Aunty Yn, Unca Bwen! Wake up! It's Christmas Day! And Santa's come!"
You chuckled, partly at your nieces urgency to get downstairs and open some presents, but mainly at Ben's low groan at being woken at 7 in the morning. Your heart softened at her reference to Ben being her Uncle, and not just a random man who had joined the family for the day. You urged the 4 year old to move off you so you could climb out of bed, grabbing the dressing gown screwed up in the floor and pushing your arms through the sleeves. "Lilah, give us 10 minutes and we'll be right down, okay?"
"Okay!" She squealed, wrapping her tiny arms around your legs before running off to shout to her brother Jackson that you'd be down in "twen" minutes.
"Baby, wake up" You whispered, shaking Bens arm lightly and kissing his forehead, only to hear him grunt and roll to face the other way. "Tired"
"So am I, but it's Christmas hun; come on, I want my presents!" You giggled, giving him a shove and jumping out of bed to tie the newly-clad gown. Ben pulled himself off the mattress and lugged over to the en-suite bathroom, mumbling that he was taking a quick shower before they head down. In the meanwhile, you busied yourself with helping your mum out in the kitchen to prepare Christmas dinner.
"Is Ben not joining us this morning?"
"He's just taking a quick shower, he'll be down soon" you explained, chopping the veg; you found yourself grinning at the mention of his name. Of course, your mother noticed this.
"You seem perfect for each other, you know. He seems like a very lovely lad too; your father and I are very happy you have found yourself someone" She smiled, elbowing your side a little which made you chuckle and grin widely; you were extremely happy that your parents actually accepted Ben into the family so unquestionably, and liked him. "So when can Michael and I expect more grandchildren!"
You saw the question coming; there was no doubt that your mother loved being a grandmother to Lilah and Jackson. But they were getting older now, Jackson being 7 and Lilah being 4, and Lydia desperately wanted a baby to care for. So, your next words came like a haven to her.
"What if I have reason to believe roughly 9 months?" You mumbled, placing your hand on your stomach and looking up at your mum with nervous eyes. Her own eyes widened in shock and happiness, taking in your words.
"You mean? You're pregnant?" She whispered, not wanting the rest of the house to hear. You nodded, worried your mother would think you and Ben were moving too fast, having only been together for roughly 10 months. "Darling, oh my gosh, that's amazing! I'm so happy! Does Ben know?"
"No not yet; in fact only you know. I was planning on telling him today, and the rest of the family, but I'm seriously beginning to second guess everything; what if Ben doesn't want the baby? I mean, we're not even married and Ben is always away for press tours and filming. What if he thinks we're moving too fast? I don't want to scare him away-" You stumbled, tears beginning to brim your eyes. Whether it was the hormones or your nerves you didn't know; but it was most likely a mixture of both. Your mother hushed you, rubbing your arm in a way to calm you down as she understood you tended to over worry about a lot; and of course, this is an extremely reasonable thing to worry about.
"Lovie, look; you will not scare Ben away. I see the look of lust in that boys eyes when he looks at you, and I can tell just how much he really loves you. This is a big thing, of course it is, but you need to tell Ben; whether you plan on keeping the child or not. He deserves to know, and if he turns you away then he was never a gentleman to begin with. You have this whole family to support you the whole way, but at the end of the day; it is both yours and Bens decision" She comforted, her words calming you a little as you realised she was right. You couldn't just not tell Ben, it was his child and you were a couple. And, to be completely honest, you were excited as hell to start a family with the man you considered the love of your life. The only reason you were hesitant with this was because you and Ben had literally never spoke about having children or starting a family, so you didn't have his opinion on the matter to fall back on. The moment between your mother and you was interrupted by the man himself, hugging you from behind and pressing a small kiss to your neck.
"Hiya love, everything okay?" He muttered, his arms wrapping tightly around your waist as you continue to chop the carrots as you were before the conversation with your mother. You hummed, leaning back into his touch, hoping he hadn't heard the previous conversation between you and your mother. You felt the smile on his lips against your skin, and he tucked his head into your neck.
"Why don't you go and meet my siblings huh? I'll be in in a few minutes, just finishing up with this" You suggested, to which he nodded and placed a small kiss to your temple, before walking into the living room to join your family. You could hear the loud voices of your older brother, Sam, and his wife greeting Ben from the other room, and painfully worried that Ben wouldn't get too nervous as your brother tended to be quite boisterous at times. In fact, your whole family did; which was extremely different to Ben's family who were much more calm and collected. Although by the sight you received entering the room a few minutes later, you were immediately filled with joy; the sight of Ben sat on the living room floor, cross legged, with Lilah on his lap and Jackson sat beside him, as he read them a story Lilah had begged him to. You were a little confused as to how he was getting on with them all so well; Lilah didn't usually warm up to people so well unless she had been properly introduced. And your mum was usually very judgemental of your boyfriends that you had brought home before. And your brother was often extremely protective over you. And your sister would most likely try to steal any guy you brought home and have him for herself.
You can't help but admire the way he is around the 2 children; it's as if he's done the whole parenting thing before. Lilah was smiling so widely, you thought her face was going to get permanently stuck like that. The two were amazingly engaged as he spoke the words on the page, acting out the story with little actions and different voices,  making sound effects when needed. Your brother's wife, Sophia, walked up to you with a small grin on her face before mumbling "You've got a good one there, don't ruin it" in your direction as she passed by to enter the kitchen. At the sight before you, you realised exactly how correct she was. You had got someone in your life who you could never lose; you'd be a fool to ruin what you and Ben had. So of course, you began second guessing telling him the news once again. If you told him the truth, he may leave and then you've lost him for good. But seeing just how well he was around the children and how engaged he was, you actually considered that this was a good idea.
The time came to finally exchange presents; no doubt after the children had nagged the adults for 20 minutes straight, asking "when can we open them?". The children spent the most time opening presents, getting excited after each one and showing it off to every single adult in the room. You were sat on the small armchair; well Ben was, and you were perched on his lap, an arm around his neck and head rested on his shoulder. You were admittedly beginning to grow impatient at telling Ben the news; as much as you didn't want to tell him, waiting to do it was becoming painful because it only gave you more time to re-evaluate your decision. Thankfully, your mother had finished giving everyone her gifts, so it was the end and you could give Ben his. You rushed out of the room to where your coat hung up, pulling out a small box that was wrapped in paper and had a bow placed on the top. Ben noticed the box and furrowed his brows, even more so when you went to hand it to him.
"YN, we agreed we weren't doing presents this year?" he questioned, hesitantly taking the box from your hand, almost as if he expected it to explode in his hand. You nodded your head a little, understanding his confusion. Honestly, you forgot that you had agreed to not give each other presents this year because you had spent quite a lot of money so far on your relationship, first buying the house and then investing in a pet.
"I-I know, but you wouldn't have got any other gifts, and I think you'll like this one" You mumbled, urging him to open it and trying to hide your nerves from Ben as you knew he had a strange talent of noticing when you were hesitant to do something. He was like a human radar; he knew when you were happy, sad, angry, nervous, excited. He had a mental notebook of all your habits for each emotion, so he could probably tell that you were absolutely bricking it right now. But you assumed that he just thought this because you were nervous he wouldn't like the gift; which you were, but he didn't realise why. He took his sweet time opening the present, unwrapping it slowly considering he had all eyes of the room on him at that moment, alongside the glare of a camera that your mother had pulled out in excitement of the moment. As he opened the flaps to the small cardboard box underneath the wrapping paper, his eyes widened and his whole body froze. You can't deny, so did yours. He slowly pulled out the small stick out of the shadows of the box to reveal two small pink lines on the small screen.
"A-are you... is this real?" he mumbled, looking up to meet your eyes. You saw the tears beginning to pool at the bottom of his eyes, and you saw a glint of happiness. You nodded, awaiting his reaction.
"I tested positive."
You didn't know if this was a good reaction or a bad one because he didn't really show much emotion on his face. That was until a giant smile stretched across his face and his hands dropped the box so that he could wrap his arms around you. It was rather sudden, but he took you into the tightest hug you'd ever felt; his head rested against your shoulder and you felt the tears of joy seeping into your jumper. You obviously hugged back, relieved that he was actually happy about this.
"I-I'm gonna be a dad? W-We're gonna be parents?" He continued questioning, unable to believe any of this was true because he didn't think contentment like this could exist. You could barely speak your own words, only having the ability to nod and cry as well as Ben.  The whole family was now cheering with you, Lilah jumping on your lap to give you the biggest hug she possibly could, exclaiming that she couldn't wait to have a little cousin she could play with. Well, you assumed that's what she said, considering most of her words were indistinguishable.
"I can't believe this, this is the best day of my fucking life. God, we're gonna be parents in 9 bloody months, love. I love you so much, and you too" he gushed, tears brimming in his eyes once again and also yours. He bent down and gently kissed your practically-non-existent bump as he whispered "and you too" and you couldn't help but admire how well he took the news; you certainly didn't expect this much of a reaction from him and you felt a little stupid for ever second guessing yourself. Of course, being the bundle of nerves Ben tended to be, started questioning everything; "How far along are you? Have you been feeling ill? Because I'm sorry if I haven't been much help to make you feel better but I don't recall hearing you being sick of anything in the mornings so I don't know-"
"Ben, I've been fine so far; I'm only a month along and I've only had two instances of morning sickness, both of which you weren't home for so you don't have to worry. I suppose I've felt a little under the weather recently but nothing that I couldn't cope with." You explained, which brought comfort to Ben as he knew you weren't suffering too much in the time being. Though, he had heard of how harsh pregnancy can be for some women and he prayed to the Lord that you would not be one of the small percentage.
*****
After finding out the exciting news, Ben had been non-stop protecting you like you were a piece of glass; not that he didn't before, he just did it a lot more intensely now. Every time you tried to sit down or stand up, he would help you so that you didn't 'strain your back'. Every time you went up the stairs, he would walk right behind you. Every time you yawned, he asked if you wanted to go to bed and insisted you had an early night so that you and 'bean' were well rested. Oh yes, and he had nicknamed the growing child 'bean'. You, thankfully, now found yourself wrapped up in the covers of your duvet after a long Christmas day and could not wait to fall asleep. Ben had jumped in beside you and cuddled close so that he could rest his hand on your stomach and head on your shoulder. You were so close to being asleep, until Ben decided to create conversation.
"You know, I thought your boobs had gotten bigger, but I didn't want to mention it in case you thought I was complaining" He mumbled into your neck, which woke you up immediately. You slapped his arm and chuckled loudly, making him wince in pain a little.
"They've also gotten a lot more sore so no touching. And alongside that, I constantly need to pee, very gassy and am continually getting mood swings; so good luck for the next 9 months because you're officially dating a zombie" you countered, making him chuckle gleefully. He didn't care how disgusting or gross you may have seen yourself; you were still beautiful to him and he was going to let you know that every day.
"A gorgeous zombie who I love very very much and is literally bringing my child into the world; with my help, of course." He smirked, making you roll your eyes because you completely understood what he meant by 'his help'.
"I'm so happy that your happy and I can't wait to have a family with the love of my life"
"And I can't wait either" He grinned, feeling happiness he had never felt before in his life. Now, all he had to do was propose; luckily, he'd been planning it all along

Stress Buster - King Liam x MC
A/N: I apologise for the length of this post for those who want to scroll past. I wrote this on the fly and I'm posting it from mobile, so I couldn't add the "Keep reading" line. Sorry! 💙
Hello! This is my first time posting a fic in quite a few months. So any feedback is appreciated. It's sort of a continuation (with a major leap in between) of my TRR Chapter Tie-Ins series. You don't have to read the previous parts to make sense of this story. For those who haven't read the previous parts, my MC in this series is Riley Spencer, a law school dropout and twin sister to Dani Spencer, the MC from Lovehacks. So this is actually a The Royal Romance and LoveHacks crossover.
Tumblr media
This is for the anon who asked me to write a fanfic about Liam teasing a tired Riley. It's a bit different than what you asked for, but I hope you like it, anon! ☺️
***
Tumblr media
It was the end of a long, tiresome week. Liam was holding himself back from grabbing Riley and jumping into bed together. He took deep, calming breaths as he sat on the ottoman and took his shoes off, watching his Queen fire away some rapid texts on her phone. He wondered how it was possible that she grew more and more beautiful with each passing day. There she stood by their bed, holding her phone up at eye level.
"Constantly looking down at the phone causes neck and spine problems, babe", she had told him once.
A small smile curved the corner of his lips, as he took in the sight of her. Those silken locks in ombre, which he had curled around his fingers nearly every night since their wedding. The graceful bearing with which she carried herself, even as she stood still. And that face - the one which had illuminated his life, like the moon did to a clouded night.
"Are you texting Madeleine?", Liam teased.
"Yes"
Normally, that name was enough to make Riley roll her eyes or crack some joke about the Countess. But she kept typing away, filling in Liam about some event she had to attend on Monday and how important it was for the apple export. It didn't sit well with Liam to see his lovely wife in her Queen mode when they had done with their duties for the day and were now alone in their bedroom. He shed his coat and unbuttoned his collar as he walked to her. The fading smell of her shower gel and deodorant, with just a smidgen of that womanly musk, was what greeted him first. Liam placed his chin on Riley's shoulder from behind, letting his arms wrap themselves around her. He closed his eyes as he kissed her cheek, gently rocking her sideways in his snug embrace.
"Honey, not right now. This is important stuff", she said, without looking back at him.
Liam didn't get upset or angry. He smiled in defeat as he recognised what was happening. He let go of her, but couldn't help putting his hands on her shoulders. He said,
"Do you realise what's going on?"
Riley said, still looking at her phone screen,
"What?"
"You're pulling a Riley"
That earned him a tired glare from over her shoulder. Liam grinned.
"I'm sorry but that's what this is. You have been doing so much these last few weeks. And unlike a normal person when overworked, you just jump deeper into the deep end"
She said, pouting a bit at her phone as she typed,
"This is not a "Riley". I'm just... just busy"
"Darling, you remember what happened the last time you got overburdened and wouldn't let anyone help you?", Liam reminded her, "You ended up eating all the cake at Maxwell's birthday, you called Drake a denim whore, then you wept while hugging both our corgis, and kept saying "It's a cool name, Mr. T! Mr. T's a cool name!*"
Riley's shoulders stiffened a bit under his hands. Liam smiled and massaged them.
"Do we want an encore of that?", he asked, trying to keep the smile out of his voice.
His wife was stubborn as she was beautiful. She said,
"There's not going to be an encore cause I'm not overworked. I've got everything under control. Totally"
She shrugged his hand off her shoulder and took her phone to the bathroom. Liam decided to let her have her privacy. But he was worried about her now. She had confided in him about her law school days, and how she had been put on "leave" by the school for reasons concerning her own mental and physical well being. That was when she had started working as a waitress and met him.
'Ah, fateful night', Liam thought.
How fearless and carefree she had seemed to him then. In a way, she was still all that. But her type A personality reared its head every now and then when the going got tough. If she kept throwing herself into work 24x7 like she had been doing lately, Liam was sure there would be repercussions for her health.
'If only there was someone who could...'
Liam smiled to himself. There was. There was someone who could pull Riley out of her workaholic spiral. The only person who could do it in fact.
Liam checked the time, and making sure it was still daytime in San Francisco, he called.
"Liamm, hii!", answered the voice from the other end.
Liam grinned at that enthusiastic tone and the thumping sound of music coming from somewhere behind his sister-in-law. He said,
"Hello, Dani"
***
Riley had back to back appearances scheduled before apple picking season. As a suitor for Liam's hand in marriage, she had hated the Cordonian obsession with apples. But as the Queen of her people, she had come to realise that the apples were a symbol of the Cordonian spirit. The Cordonian Ruby was one of their most valued exports and she knew its importance to the Cordonian morale and economy quite well.
"Riley, this is such a lovely dress. I didn't know you had something from Ana de Luca's summer '19 collection", Hana said.
Riley had to turn her head to look at Hana, who was sitting next to her in the car. At first glance, she saw a large apple in place of Hana's face.
'What?'
Overworked for the last few days, she had to shake her head to clearly see the winsome face of Lady Hana Lee.
"I haven't even seen Ana's summer collection this year, let alone buy something. What are you talking about?", Riley said.
Hana showed her the webpage on her phone, the picture just taken that morning... of Liam and Riley leaving the Parliament.
Her mind was so bungled with apples and all the bullet points on her schedule for the day that she had to take a minute to think. Hana pointed out,
"This was taken a few hours ago. But you've been with me since morning"
Riley asked, clearly confused,
"What?"
Hana looked concerned. She said,
"Riley, you were photographed with Liam outside the Parliament this morning. But that can't be you cause you have been with me all day. So who is this? And what happened to you? Are you okay?"
In a quick snatch, Riley had Hana's phone in her own hands. She speed-read through the article and slowly scrolled past the three pictures. Only her side profile was caught in the pictures, most of it hidden by a gigantic hat. Riley scowled, angered but not scared. She handed the phone back to Hana.
"That's my twin sister", Riley said, "And she and Liam have a lot to answer for when I get to them"
***
Come evening, Riley nearly stormed into the palace, followed by her assistant who frantically tried to keep in pace with her. She had confirmed with Liam's assistant that he was at home after the day's work. Dani she hadn't bothered calling because her head already felt like it would burst. If she had to argue with her reckless, impulsive sister for one...
"That's one big butt to carry on your neck, butthead"
Riley turned around at the call that had come from behind her. Dani stood laughing in the distance, in casual attire that made her stand out even more amidst the palace interior. She met Riley halfway, hugging her tight.
"Oh Riiless, it's been sooo long!"
Dani hugged her tight, shaking her a bit. Riley would have offered an even tighter hug which her family, the Spencers, were known for. But she remembered what had put her in a bad mood for the entirety of her day.
"The photos this morning", she said, without any emotion.
Dani drew back, still grinning,
"Your press secretary didn't tell you? I was on my way to surprise you here at the palace. She... what's her name... like that cookie Mom likes?"
"Madeleine?"
"Yeah, that one. So she saw me and she was like, "Ah the twin sister". I tried to be polite and all but she didn't seem to have time for that. She asked me if I'd be okay to stand in as you for a few pictures for the paparazzi. I thought what the hell, and did it"
Riley folded her arms and asked, raising her eyebrows,
"Oh really? You just conveniently happened to run into Countess Madeleine and she asked you, even though I was just a phone call away, to take pictures with Liam? And for whom, the paparazzi? Dani, I know this is some stupid prank of yours but you've really lost your touch. That is so absurd I can't even..."
"I'm not kidding, seriously", Dani explained, with an earnest expression, "I told her that someone might notice the slight differences in our features. You know, twins being mirror images and all. She said that your face was plain enough to not warrant such close scrutiny. Yikes"
Riley bit her lip. She said,
"Fine. That does sound like something Madeleine would say but it doesn't make any sense why she would want me and Liam to be photographed together by some paparazzo"
Dani explained,
"Right? I asked her the same thing. She said it was because rumours have been going about your marriage losing its spark cause you two are barely seen together in public anymore"
Ouch.
It took Riley a moment to counter that. She tried,
"But... it's not... it's just because we've both been busy with our individual duties. There's nothing wrong with our marriage. We love each other"
"I'm sure you do, Riles. Don't listen to what the haters say. They have nothing better to do", Dani assured her.
Riley couldn't stop thinking about it though. Had it really been so long since she and Liam had been seen together in public? She couldn't recall the last time they had had a private moment together let alone one in front of other people. She had thrown herself into the role of the best Queen she could be and yet...
"You okay?", Dani said, "If I had known it would bother you so much, I wouldn't have done it. That Madeleine said she would let you know and you'd be okay with it"
What hurt her - more than the speculation about her marriage - was the fact that Liam had gone along with this scheme. He had let himself be photographed with Dani as a substitute to his lawfully wedded wife.
Riley had to ask,
"What did Liam say? He must have felt pretty uncomfortable pretending you were me"
"I don't think he noticed it was me and not you. We didn't say anything to each other. We just walked side by side, not even holding hands. And that was it", Dani shrugged.
'No way. Not in a m...'
Riley shook her head, giving a little laugh of disbelief.
"Now that's taking it too far. Liam would have immediately known it was not me. Or Madeleine must have told him it was you. Yeah. That's why he..."
Really? She thought to herself. Did Liam really not care or notice that the woman next to him wasn't his wife?
It hurt. But Riley endured. She put on a smiling face for her sister and saw her to the guest chambers.
***
Riley dropped the impassive act when she walked into her own bedroom that she shared with Liam. He was sitting on the settee, reading a book. Like a child in want of attention, Riley walked over and stood right in front of him. Liam looked up at her from his book then, asking,
"When did you get in, my love?"
Oh the nerve.
She folded her arms across her chest, trying her best not to let her cheeks swell in anger like they always did. And which was enough to make Liam not take her seriously as he kept trying to "puncture" her cheeks instead.
"Did you seriously pose with Dani this morning and not know it wasn't me?", she asked.
Liam closed the book, his perfect eyebrows furrowing just a bit. He asked sweetly,
"Dani? Your sister?"
"You posed for paparazzi bait shots with her this morning. Did you really not know it wasn't me?"
Liam stood up and peered down into her face. He said sincerely,
"Riley, I really didn't think for a moment that it wasn't you. And Dani... when did she arrive? And why was she the one posing with me?"
Riley recapped for him what Dani had told her. He sighed, scratching the side of his brow.
"That's too much, even for Madeleine. I'll talk to her"
"I'm not jealous or something that you posed for a picture with my sister. It's not that", Riley said in small voice.
"What is it then?"
She could feel her stupid cheeks inflate as she spoke.
"It's just that... you couldn't even tell that it wasn't me. I know Dani and I are identical twins but I thought...", she mumbled, "I thought you would always be able to tell"
"Oh"
That's it? Oh? That was what he had to say in his defence?
Liam said, a bit sheepish,
"Well, to be honest with you, we didn't talk during the photos. She was wearing a very... interesting hat that hid nearly half her face from me. I supposed that you were busy and didn't want to talk, that's all. I didn't want to annoy you"
This wasn't something she had expected to hear from her Liam. Riley gripped his arms with her hands, saying,
"You don't think I'd ever be so mean and want to avoid you? Not you, Liam. You're the only reason I'm even here. You know that, right?"
He took her in his arms. But cautiously, she noted.
"I know. I'm sorry", he said, "It's... you have been so busy lately. I know how hard you try to give your best to everything you are called upon to do as the Queen of Cordonia. I just didn't want to annoy you when you have been working yourself to the bone lately"
That sure did it. Riley could feel the tears murking her vision. She had been so occupied with being a good queen lately that she had forgotten who she was doing it all for. The man who was holding her in his arms like she were made of fire and would burn him any instant.
She didn't want to know the answer to it but she asked anyway.
"Liam?"
"Yes, dear?"
"You're not scared of me, are you?"
He stroked her hair away from her forehead, smiling.
"Of course not, my love. I'm in awe of your strength and your courage every day. But you have never given me any reason to fear you"
Throwing herself into his embrace, Riley muffled her face against Liam's shirt. He seemed to panic.
"Hey. You okay? What's wrong?"
Riley mumbled,
"I pulled a Riley"
She could feel the laugh reverberating through Liam's chest. He kissed the top of her head, saying,
"There, there"
"I'm so sorry", she said, sniffing.
"Don't be. I appreciate how much effort you put into being a good ruler. You have no idea how grateful I am for that", Liam held her face so she was looking up at him, "But nothing's worth the anguish and damage to your health. You are the most important person in the world to me. And if anything were to happen to..."
Riley sniffed petulantly, interrupting him,
"Why am I like this?"
Liam kept reassuring her, kissing her tears away.
"There's nothing wrong with you, my love. I just wanted to remind you to take it easy"
She wiped another tear falling down her cheek. The exhaustion of the past few weeks was catching up with her. More than that, she was chiding herself for reverting back to her old workaholic ways. She didn't need all the stress when they were trying for a baby.
Liam looked at her like a sad, guilty puppy, which just added to her confusion. He suddenly pulled her closer.
"Oh my darling, I'm sorry. Don't cry. I'm so sorry", he said.
"Why?", she wondered.
"If I had known it would make you feel so bad, I never would have agreed to Dani's plan"
Hold up.
Riley looked up sharply through tearful eyes that were now blazing with a slow fury. She repeated,
"Dani's plan?"
Liam confessed,
"Yes. I asked her if she knew how I could stop you from overworking yourself to a burnout, and she said that she would fly to Cordonia and help. She didn't tell me much. She just said that I shouldn't speak a word to you or her today if we met in public, and that she would handle the rest. I knew it was not you with me this morning outside the Parliament, but since she had forbidden me from speaking to either of you, I didn't say anything"
Liam was startled when a woman's voice in an American accent called him "Tattle tits!". Both he and Riley turned to see Dani standing in the door to their bedroom, with her hands on her hips.
"For the record", Dani said to her sister, carefully taking a step backwards, "Lady Hana and Madeleine were in on this too. So you can't just punish me for the whole thing"
Riley gave her husband a sweet smile that spelled murder. She said,
"I'm going to deal with you tonight, right after I kill my sister"
Tumblr media
She could tell from Liam's eyes that he was up for whatever sexual punishment she had hinted at. He said softly, so only she could hear,
"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but whips and chains excite me"
She shook her head at him in horror, saying,
"Oh my god. You only spent like half a day with her... Jesus Christ. Dani!"
Liam couldn't help but grin as he stood there watching. Dani dashed out of their rooms with a laugh, followed by the Queen of Cordonia and her shoe.
"Oww!", he heard Dani yelp from somewhere outside, "That hurt, you jerk!"
The loud bickering he - and the guards - could hear outside reminded him of similar occasions from his own childhood.
Not wanting to get in Riley's way when she was in an avenging mood, Liam took his phone and dialled a number.
"Leo?", he smiled on hearing the voice, "Hello to your filthy self, brother"
He sat down to catch up with his own sibling while Riley punished her imp of a twin outside.

"A king only bows down to his queen." ~Anonymous
"Hey love, wake up. Daddy's home," you heard Sam's voice whisper in your ear. You rolled over to the other side of the couch as your eyes opened.
You were expecting to meet his hazel eyes, but were met with his belt buckle before you. Looking down at his shoes, traveling up his slacks, and tracing the hem of his jacket you pulled his waist closer to you. Clearly whatever they were hunting this time required the average suit and tie. Your favorite hunts. "Hey there, handsome," you smiled breathlessly.
As he leaned over you and steadied himself on the back of the couch he bent down to peck your lips. It was three days before Sam and Dean had finally made it back to the bunker, so with the lights down low you were shocked at feeling his beard grown out. He stepped back to help you up and he swept you into his arms and wrapped your legs around his waist.
"What is this," you played with the stubble on his chin. His cheeks were a light shade of pink when you smoothed your thumb over his right cheek.
"Do you like it? I can shave if you want me to," he began to question as his legs carried us back to his room.
"Don't even think about it," you mumbled and put your nose in the crook of his neck. Breathing in his scent sent a wave of energy through your body. Sammy was home. He was right here. Sam came back to you.
Kissing below his beard you whispered, "I love you Sam. You were gone too long." He let out a shaky breath when your hot tongue ran across his neck in a slow line to his ear. Taking it in between your teeth you bit down just enough to hear him wimper.
By the time you made it to his bedroom door your panties were dripping at the thought of his beard brushing across your body. He sat you gently on the comforter and crawled up to find your lips. "I love you too, Y/N. Let me show you how much," he begged and tugged at your bottom lip.
Sam's large hand had held your chin so he could kiss you sweetly, the taste of his last beer on his tongue still present. While his hand held your face still, he was making your body twist and respond in ways you didn't know possible. He ran his other hand smooth under your night shorts, causing you to lift up to his touch.
"Sam..," you begged.
"Yes, love? Everything okay," his smile turned cocky in a split second. "Just say it baby. Tell daddy what you need!"
You couldn’t wait any longer. "Damn it, Sammy. I need you!" You pulled him back down to you and ran you fingers through his shaggy hair. There was nothing that the universe could throw at you in the moment. Not when your legs were wrapped around him, tongues fighting for dominance, and your heels digging into his ass, trying to find a steady teasing.
"Wait, there's something I want to do different tonight," Sam's voice pulled you from the clouds you were headed to.
You were slowly growing impatient as the younger Winchester moved himself from your grasp. "Sammy.."
"Hold on, love. Give me a sec."
You watched him as he walked over to his jacket from earlier and pulled something from the inside pocket. Before you could make out what it was he slipped it into his jeans and walked back to you.
"Scoot to me," your boyfriend requested. You huffed in annoyance but quickly crawled beside him. Sam wrapped his arms around your waist and let his longs fingers hook into your hips. "Y/N, you know how I feel about you."
You looked into his eyes waiting for him to continue. "I know, Sam. An' you know my feelings too," you smiled and leaned in to peck his soft, baby pink lips.
With his other hand he took yours. "So, I just wanted to make things more clear. Ever since you have walked into my life, there's not a day that goes by that you aren't on my mind. The way are bodies fit together. The way we hunt together. I never want this to end."
"Sam," you questioned as he stood from the bed.
Pulling the small black box from his pants pocket, he knelt down on one knee. "Y/N, will you make me the happiest man the world, and be my wife?"
Tears streamed down your face when the question fell from his lips. Here he was. Your dream man, standing in front of you, asking for your hand. You could feel the strings on your heart tug as you nodded yes. "Yes, Sam. That's all I want. That's all I need."
Kneeling down beside him you take him into the deepest of kisses you had ever shared. He leaned his forehead onto yours and wiped the tears away. "I love you so much, baby," Sam's voice hitched as a single tear slipped from his eye.
Once again you found yourself hold onto him and your nose brushing his. "I love you too, Sammy."
Pulling Sam off the floor was the first sign of how these next few hours would go. When his long legs were steady under him he found himself being pushed onto his back. Thankfully for your choice in fluffy pillows and blankets, his head had a softening land when you shoved him further down the bed.
You opened your mouth just the slightest for his tongue to slip past and took him whole. His erection in his slacks never fell, begging to be free of what was holding him back. Running your hands up his thigh and to his belt buckle, you watched as something in eyes flicked from love to lust.
"Please, baby," Sam growled. His voice was like velvet the sweat forming around his face was enough to turn you on even more.
"Now, who's begging," you smile down to you boyfriend before licking at his neck and drawing him in for another deep kiss.

Well, that's all I have for now. I hope y'all liked it. I don't know why, but I kinda wanted to finish this one up because I'm not sure how this is going for me right now. I feel like I have taken such a different road in my life than the one that I planned and I never thought I'd end up here. This would have been through sooner, but I've just felt so empty lately. I've cried so much in this past month, I honestly don't know how I can cry anymore. I don't find myself getting out of the house anymore. I'm slowly starting to draw again. I haven't found the motivation to start reading again. Today was the first day I've been out my house in a week and I actually had a good time. I found myself enjoying not only my friends' company but my own, even though we had been out in the worst weather to be in. Anyways... For this fic, I'm tagging everyone who liked the post before,( and there may be a few extra) when I first wanted to write it. Again, thank you so much for all the support and kind words. They mean everything. So, all mistakes are mine. I don't know how long it will be until my next fic, I just don't know how I'm really doing right now. But.. I love yall and I hope you like it... ~ Morgan. ❤💋

St. Valentines Day [EN]: Chapter 2

Gisela almost jumped and screamed at the sight.
"Who are you?! What are you doing in my room, here in my bed?! What did you do to me?! Why can't I remember anything?!" She held her head due to headache.
"Don't scream, they might think that I'm doing something to you." He said.
"To a loser you shouldn't give a damn about... Yes, you already did something!" She tried to sit up but she did not succeed with her attempt.
She winced because of the pain she felt down there, tingling on her sensitive part.
He held her close and rubbed her back.
Like he's trying to calm her as she breathes in and out.
"Shh... That's it. Breathe. Tsk. Don't move so harshly, does it still hurt?" He asked.
She almost cried nodding to him.
"Can you stop breathing on my neck?! God. What a mess. So much for the freedom that I asked for." She uttered.
"We all search for freedom. Why do you look so sad? Tss, sorry, don't mind my question. I don't wanna intrude. By the way, nice place you got here. I haven't found a place yet, so I think I wanna stay here, even just for two or three weeks. You wouldn't mind, right? Since misery loves company, oh my bad, it's misery meets misery. Why do I get the feeling that we've met before?" The guy said.
"I don't even know you, you don't know me and what I'm going through! If you're gonna stay here, we have to set the boundaries and the rules." She reiterated.
"Shoot." He said.
"One, since I just bought this house and I'm struggling to survive the rest of my days on earth due to financial instability, you have to pay me rent. Two, no opening up or asking about 'too' personal details. Three, no more sexual activities with the landlady, last night was enough..." She stated.
"I think I can do number one and two, but I doubt that we both can resist number three, for we're still cuddling until now." He said and she moved away from him and covered her nudeness with the white blanket.
The man laughed a bit, which she found weirdly sexy.
When Gisela did not feel any pain anymore, she stood and wore her robe.
The man's smirking as he lit up a cigarette from the pocket of his jacket while his eyes are feasting on her features and curves.
She was about to enter the bathroom to clean herself up from the dried 'juices' stuck on her skin but she heard the doorbell rang from downstairs.
She walked downstairs and opened the door, she saw the old lady, Olivia...
"We're leaving for almost a month. I'm taking Larry to the city hospital which is really far from here, as the old man will prepare for his heart operation. We're taking our grandson with us, which means I will be leaving this beach to you. We're not locking it up unless it's night-time but... Can you look after it for us until we get back?" Old Olivia asked.
Gisela nodded.
"Yes, I'll pray for his speedy recovery. In this world, prayers are our sword for battle." She said and the old woman gave her the keys.
She went upstairs and she broke the news to the man who got her first.
"Who was that?" He was curious.
"The lady who sold me this house. Her entire family's going to tne city for almost a month. Which means, it's just you and me in this isolated island and damn life." She said.
"Which is good right, if you're in charge, we can do more public se-... S-sessions of swimming." The guy changed what he was about to say when the woman glared at him.
"You don't wanna be stuck with me in a place for a long time. No one does. I'm boring and worthless as hell." She said.
"I don't know, I find you exciting as hell. With that bod? There's no way that anyone doesn't wanna be stuck with you, I'd even probably prefer to be stuck in a manhole with you than not at all." She just rolled her eyes at his comment.
Then, she continued talking about the rules she thought just right about now.
Adding some things to it.
"As I was saying... Number four, you'll sleep on the couch downstairs and I sleep on my bed, here in my room. Don't dare to barge in here. This is not porn. Last and final rule, we don't have to know who we are." She said.
"I love the porn part but I was a bit confused on the last rule." She rolled her eyes at the hot naked guy on her bed.
"No names. We're gonna go separate ways anyway. You can call me Piggy and I can call you-...?" She said.
"Dinosaur. Don't look at me like that, isn't it obvious why based from what you just saw?" She glared at him.
"Kidding. I collect dinosaur figures back in the city. I'm a fan of Godzilla and Jurassic Park." She just nodded.
"Let's make it more exciting, if we found out each others' names, we part ways without a word. That's how pro one-night-standers do it." He said.
She shook her head smiling a little to him and entered the bathroom to shower.
Dorian followed her and she was shocked when he kissed her and lifted her to the bathtub...
Dorian opened the tap to fill it with water, he then poured soap in it and joined Gisela in a bubble bath as they do what they wanna finish doing...
They started living together.
The no sex rule was always being disobeyed by the male and the female was just letting him, like she had no choice for she also loved the relaxed feeling after the unexplainable and tiring skinship.
There was a time that when Dorian turned on the radio...
He heard his song played...
~I remember we were living like Kings and Queens
In the little tiny castle made of hopes and dreams
It was destiny
It was meant to be
We were so complete
The perfect team...
I always think about her (Aye)
Try to not overthink about her (Yeah)
I always dream about her (Uh, Uh)
Try not to dream about her (Oou)
I'm feeling so lost without her I try to come home
And it's so hard being out on my own
It breaks my heart to leave you alone
And that's all I get from you but I give my all to you
And that's all I hear from you
All dressed up nowhere to go
So I'm Dancing (Dancing)
On My Own
I've been waiting way too long (I don't want you dancing alone)
Dancing (Uh-huh)
On My Own
Play one more song (Play one more song)
Song (I'll be home)
Song But you're not coming (Yeah)
Song Song Song But you're not coming home
I told you I'll be home
I told you I'll be back (Play one more song 'til you g-...~
The song almost come to an end but Dorian turned it off when Gisela came out of the bathroom, because if Gisela, recognized his voice and knew who he was, it will be the end for them...
"Why have you turned it off? I was listening to the song... It's good..." She said.
"You know, you should re-think your taste when it comes to music." Dorian commented.
Gisela just shook her head, smiling.
They are getting to know each other more day by day but they still have not talked about why they ended up on the island...
On day, preparing brunch on the beach side, Piggy was sitting on the hammock while writing something on her notebook as Dinosaur is grilling fish for their meal.
Piggy was shocked as she heard a familiar voice alarmed.
"Ahhh!!!" Dinosaur winced in pain as he grabbed the neck of the snake who bit him and threw it on a far away bush.
He may not be showing it, but he's panicking.
Piggy ripped her skirt to get a piece of cloth and she tied a tight knot on the Dinosaur's ankle.
Piggy ran to the house and quickly came back with an alchohol, a clean knife, a roll of bandage and a cotton on her hands.
"I thought Dinosaurs are tougher than Pigs and Snakes. Then, why are you screaming like a girl? This is gonna hurt a bit but..." Piggy pierced the swollen wound.
Blurry liquid came out of his leg.
"Ahhh!!! Sh*t! Can you be more gentler as I was with you in bed?! Ouch!" He said shouting.
"Even your leg is filled with lust. It's wet and cumming. We're hopeless. You'll die in five minutes. Like me, alone, miserable and lonely." He glared at her for the comment.
"Kidding. Let the goner go, will you?" The woman said.
Dinosaur's eyes almost fell from it's sockets when Piggy put her mouth over the wound and sipped it thoroughly.
He almost drool over the sight.
Everytime her mouth is filled by the poison, she spits it out on the side.
When it was done, she cleaned the wound and replaced the cloth with a bandage.
"Where have you learned that?" The man asked.
"I was a nurse. A shitty one." She answered.
"Was. Why did you quit?" He asked.
"Can you stop being so nosy? Let the personal details go." The woman said she sat back on the hammock and continued to write on her notebook.
"What's that? I'm starting to get jealous with that notebook." He said.
She walked toward Dinosaur to ask for his opinion.
"Tell me what you think for a woman who's busy isolating and distancing herself from society?" She showed her writings to him.
"Without even reading this, I can say we're explicitly productive." The woman just glared at him for what he said.
Then, he read the book seriously.
"Writing strory scripts eh? This is good and intense but... I think it will suffice for the readers. Try to write about us next time. Is this why you quit? For the so called "Absolute Dream'?!" He overreacted his expression on the last sentence with his arm streched out high pointing at the sky.
"You talk a lot. How about you go back to the house and I'll bring the fish to you. And I thought I saw a Spiderwisp plant near our house's front yard. I'll go get some to treat the snakebite. Don't look at me like that... Unlike other things, just be thankful that it can be treated." She ordered the man.
Even if it's against his will, he just followed what she said...
