#i do love bugs i dont like touching them as much as i do admiring them from afar though.

[wlwinry]

could i know more of your thistlecaster thoughts/any hc’s??

YES sorry ive become insufferable about them im gonna list off everything off the top of my head

classic example of fell first/fell harder. after the breakup w zelda gorgug sorta gradually spirals into being in love w fabian but he's very much like "im not gonna put my crush on him, i'll tell him at some point but i don't wanna mess things up" and he's very...not casual but not constantly freaking out about it. meanwhile fabian gets hit by the metaphorical "in love with gorgug" bus and proceeds to be so uncool about it to the point where everyone BUT gorgug notices his crush. it's the "leans against a vending machine and breaks it" scene w mazey but 10x worse

they spar A Lot, because they're the two main melee fighters/the ones who don't rely heavily on spellcasting in combat, which means they work together on the field A Lot. as such they're very good at reading each other's body language

PDA couple alert. not to trackerbees levels there is no 69ing on the battlefield but fabian is constantly holding gorgug's hand or leaning against his side and gorgug is constantly hugging fabian from behind or resting his chin on his head. fabian is touch-starved (hallariel isn't exactly the cuddling type and bill's physical affection tends to come in random bone-cracking bursts) and just sort of melts into gorgug

he also melts into gorgug bc gorgug is very earnest and sweet and fabian "expressing genuine vulnerability is dangerous" does not know how to process this other than by becoming a ball of deeply enamored mush

you've never seen someone give as many gifts as fabian does. even if it's just smth like a coffee or tea when they meet up before classes bc fabian knows that he needs the extra energy. there's big gifts too, like the giant workshop and lab he converts one of the multiple training rooms in seacaster manor into for gorgug to artifice (state of the art, ofc), but also things like a special holster for drumsticks, pillows enchanted to maximize restful sleep, etc.

gorgug retaliates by making fabian Many Things. often accessories. several with tin flowers on them (he also makes the engagement and wedding rings, when it eventually comes to that. and it does. to me.)

fabian gets a little emotional whenever he's offered another flower

fabian is also big on terms of endearment and pet names but "darling" is very specifically never one of them. gorgug's favorite of the bunch is "flower"

gorgug loves watching fabian dance. fabian also loves watching gorgug artifice. there tends to be an admiring onlooker in their various workspaces

the hangman fully offered to throw itself into a ditch so gorgug would come fix it again if that would help fabian flirt w gorgug. fabian refused. the hangman kept asking and was only effectively stopped when reminded that gorgug owns the hangvan

speaking of the hangvan. good makeout spot.

idk i just think they're so in love and they match up so well i think about them always. fabian also goes to so many cig figs concerts with big ol glittery signs covered in hearts and gorgug is always flustered when he sees him in the crowd, much to fig's delight. when gorgug mentions wanting to write fabian a song she is immediately on board and insists he has to do it

fig needs to know details immediately and gorgug is. so bashful about giving them. meanwhile fabian WANTS to gush and riz is like ily im so happy for you i dont need to know all the details. this does eventually mean fig bugs fabian for details and fabian eagerly gives them

unlike his mother fabian knows loving someone with a human lifespan when you're going to live well beyond one means you have to treasure every single moment with them. so he does. and gorgug knows he will love him no matter what plane he's on, living or dead

i have more this is just. what i've got off the top of my head rn. thanks for letting me be completely insufferable

— SUNA

• he hadn’t asked many questions when you told him you couldn’t come over to his house in the afternoon. but now, as he was replaying your snapchat story for the sixth time, he really wished he did

• maybe if he had insisted on coming with you, you wouldn’t have let this guy - that he had never seen, for the record - act so touchy with you

• was it his fault for not making you feel special enough ? to the point that you preferred the company of other men rather than your own boyfriend’s ?

• just the thought of this was enough to make a few of his usually well-hidden insecurities bubble up - most of them due to what his friends always joked about « suna doesn’t care enough to be in a relationship, they’ll all run away after a week ! »

• so yes, suna was hurt, but you didn’t have to see that. your opinion on him was the only one he cared about, he didn’t want to tarnish it. well... your opinion and his little sister’s, who burst into his room as he was about to watch your story for the seventh time to tell him that « someone’s at the door ! »

• not feeling like getting out of bed, it took him a few minutes to drag his feet to the door before finally opening it. and of all the people he could have expected to see, you were the last of them

• « surprise ? » you smiled as you let yourself in, not noticing the surprised look on his face as you greeted him with a tight hug. « i felt bad for cancelling our afternoon together, so i asked my brother to drop me off »

• you weren’t even done talking that suna had already recognized the man in the car that was leaving his driveway. his embrace immediately softened, and a smile crept on his face as he felt all his doubts vanish in a second

• « nuh-uh, don’t take your jacket off beautiful, i’m taking you out », he told you, determined to spoil you in the way he regretted not doing sooner

• at his words, his sister almost magically appeared next to you, coat in hand and ready to go. « you weren’t planning on leaving without me, right ? » she flashed you a toothless grin, grabbing both your hand and his to drag you two outside

• suna shared a deadpanned look with you, « of course not... » you both said in unison as she was already leading the way to her favorite ice cream shop

— IWAIZUMI

• iwa’s trust in you was infinite. but something about the way this guy had his arm playfully wrapped around your shoulders didn’t sit right with him

• his practice had ran late and he was exhausted. but he had promised you he would pop over to the birthday party of your childhood best friend, knowing how much it mattered to you

• but your behavior looked an awful lot like an attempt at making him jealous... and it was working

• was it your way of letting him know that you two weren’t working anymore ? were you just too much of a coward to be clear about it ? he hated to think about you that way. and most of all, he cared about you too much to not step in

• « ok now you got my attention » he told you after pulling you to the side. « if you want to tell me something, go ahead, i’m listening »

• still trapped in the euphoria of the moment, you didn’t really understand how upset he was. but maybe it was for the best, because it allowed you to defuse the tension lightheartedly : « i can’t believe i forgot to introduce you ! » you let out as you dragged him back to where your brother was still standing

• his jaw still clenched, iwa couldn’t even bring himself to shake this stranger’s hand, as friendly as he looked. at least not until you spoke your next words : « he was actually telling me how excited he was to finally met his future brother-in-law ! »

• iwa’s lips slightly parted in confusion, you could almost hear the cogs turning in his head over the music. brother? well that explained a lot of things

• « h-hi, sorry i was... miles away » he apologized before finally shaking the hand your brother was holding out to him

• but once the surprise had passed, another word stuck with him : brother-in-law ? as in « my sibling speaks so highly of you that i’m willing to let you put a ring on their finger even though i have never met you yet » ?

• well, it was good to know that your brother agreed with the plans he’d had for you since day 1...

— AKAASHI

• it was not unusual for akaashi to think that maybe he was not good enough for you. but being actually jealous was a first for him

• he had promised himself to never be too overprotective of you. but the facts were here : it was 3am and the only thing keeping him up was this unknown feeling of pure jealousy

• if he had not been in such a hurry when he witnessed your lighthearted banter and playful fighting with this man in the afternoon, he would’ve come up to you. introduced himself. maybe asked a few questions. if

• suspecting that this unpleasant feeling would not go away unless he talked to you about it, akaashi found himself dialling your number in the middle of the night

• used to his thoughts polluting his mind at unpredictable hours of the day and the night, your ringer was always on. which is why you picked up after only two rings

• « hi angel, i’m sorry to wake you up, i just... » he started, the clarity of his tone letting you know that he had not slept a wink. feeling his hesitation, you were quick to reassure him « it’s ok keiji. what’s going on ? »

• « who were you with ? i mean- this afternoon ? i don’t think i’ve ever met that guy and i was just wondering if... maybe i should ? »

• sitting up straight on your bed, you felt a weight being lifted off your shoulders. if this was the only thing keeping him awake, he should be able to fall asleep in the following minutes. « i was with my brother. but i understand why you were confused, it’s a normal reaction so please don’t blame yourself for that, alright baby ? »

• the gasp you heard on the other end of the line made you chuckle. akaashi’s voice was much less tensed now : « well in that case, yeah i should probably meet him... if you’re ok with that »

• « i’m more than ok with that » you smiled, placing your phone down on your pillow « wanna stay on the phone for a bit ? »

• « that’d be nice », his voice sounded sleepy already, especially above the familiar sound of his covers being pulled up to his chin

— ATSUMU

• how could he put that in words ? he didn’t even know if he was allowed to be jealous because he knew how often you had to see him deal with his many fangirls

• and that was actually what bugged him the most : that he might have already made you feel as shitty as he was feeling now

• but atsumu wasn’t the type to sit down and seriously open up about his feelings. besides, it was much easier to look like a needy boyfriend rather than a vulnerable one

• so he resorted to what he was best at : physical touch as a way to get your attention

• sneaking up behind you, he didn’t give you any warning before wrapping both his arms around your waist and pressing his chest on your back so much that you almost had to bend over

• he really hoped you would be perceptive enough to understand that he wasn’t just being clingy, but in need of a lot of reassurance. and luckily, it was quick to come :

• « tsumu, let me introduce you my brother » you chuckled, understanding how and why he had been mistaken

• one hand still on your waist, he used the other to greet your brother. atsumu did not really seem fazed by the news. of course he was relieved to know that he had nothing to worry about, but this little experience had still been very eye-opening to him

• after your brother had left to give you two some privacy, tsumu’s grip on your waist tightened, but in a softer way

• « ‘m sorry if i ever made ya cry » he let out, completely out of the blue. you didn’t really understand the meaning of this, but it didn’t matter. your hand found its way to his cheek that you brushed lightly with one finger, admiring the how it was slowly turning red. « being jealous sucks... » he added.

• « it does », you approved, giving him a quick peck on the nose. « but there’s nothing and no one that you should worry about, i promise »

• a fond smile lit up his face. you looked sincere, and he really needed to hear that right now. quick as ever, his hands left your waist to come and rest on your cheeks. both holding each other’s faces, you stared at the other for a few seconds, wondering which one of you would give in to a kiss first

Steve never realized how much he liked things in his mouth. Not always in a sexual way, at least not until after fighting Thanos.

After fighting for so long, bottling up his emotions was not at all how Steve needed to cope. He tried the yoga and meditation route Wanda had so kindly suggested. Yeah, after one session of hot yoga, Steve decided that it wasn't going to happen. Tony, obviously, suggested sex. Said something about it being a “healing experience for the soul”. That’s bullshit were Steve’s first thoughts when that came out of his mouth. Bucky told him to get some goats and raved about how therapeutic it was to raise them. But Steve could barely take care of himself, how would he even take care of a goat? Steve felt a hot sense of hopelessness burn against the back of his eyes as he sat on the floor of his bedroom, back pressed against the adjoined bathroom door.

“Steve?” A soft knock came from the front door. He took his thumb away from his mouth, he had resorted to subconsciously nibbling on the tip of it. Pulling himself off the door and towards the voice, he rubbed his tear-stricken cheeks in attempts to clean himself up a bit before seeing you.

“One sec, Y/N/N.”

When he opened the door, your face softened a bit before the smile that Steve, secretly, loved so much dropped off your face completely. “Stevie, what happened?”

Stevie, a nickname he hated for his entire life. A name that reminded him of the days before the super solider serum where he was a little guy getting beaten up on the streets of Brooklyn. Stevie, a nickname he loved hearing from your caring voice. Nobody else’s. 

“Just tired, Y/N” he sighed, “so,so tired.”

“Stevie,” your voice caught at the back of your throat. Seeing him in so much pain made your life turn upside down. He doesn't deserve to be in pain. “ S’there anything I can do to make you feel better?”

“Just stay with me? Please?”

You took him back into his bed and sat with him, just talking about life until his breathing turned back to normal and he seemed partially-okay. 

“Do you want to take a bath?” you asked, still stroking the blonde strands of his hair.

“Are you saying I smell?” He took his face out of the crook of your shoulder, feigning a look of hurt.

“No, punk, I meant to relax. You seemed pretty shaken up and I just wanted to help. I mean, that’s what I do when I feel down, relax in a bat-”

He cuts you off, “I appreciate it. Really, Y/N, I don’t know many people that are as loving and caring as you, sweetheart.” The nickname made a pang in your heart. You had like the super solider since you had met him, but never felt like he reciprocated the feelings. Even though you both cuddled often, and had movie nights, and he always let you beat him while sparring, and that one time you came down with a stomach bug and he fed you soup and-holy shit. Did Steve like you? “Sweetheart?”

“Huh?”

“I said, ‘A bath does sound nice’. What’s got you so suddenly zoned out?” He says, donning a smirk.

“It’s nothing. Let’s get you into that bath, mister,” you had a faux grumpy look on your face as you got up and walked to the bathroom, starting to fill the white, ceramic bathtub with warm water. “Okay, big boy. You need help getting up or are you okay?”

Rolling his eyes at your inauthentic tone, Steve pushes his tensed frame off the body and managed to stumble into the bathroom, while you following him closely to make sure he doesn't fall over from exhaustion.

“I get it, I’m old, but damn Y/N. I can walk perfectly fine,” He chuckles as he pushes himself up to sit on the counter top.

You start to fill up the bathtub with warm water, adding bubbles and lighting a few scented candles. He looked so pretty, hair sticking out in every direction, lips pink and puffy from biting them, his ocean blue eyes still misty as he looks down at his cuticles, picking them slightly. 

“Okay, I’m gonna leave so you can take this bath,” you say, shutting off the faucet, “Got it?”

“Y/N?”

“Yes, Stevie.”

“Stay, please.” His eyes were watering more than earlier. He had those puppy dog eyes, lip quivering as his voice cracked and wavered even with just a few words. He looked so vulnerable, how could you say no to him?

“Of course, Steve. I mean, the bubbles with kind of cover everything. I’ll just sit next to the tub with you, alright?” You awkwardly giggled and scratched the back of your neck. He nodded, hopping off of the counter and starting to undress himself with a wobble. “Stevie, you’re shaking like a leaf, let me help you.”

His eyes never met yours as you helped him pull his t-shirt over his head and looped your delicate fingers through the waistband of his sweatpants, dragging them down his muscular thighs. “You’re not gonna finish your job, doll?”

His boxers. The only clothes he had left on were his grey boxers. You wanted to give him privacy and not look, especially in such a broken and vulnerable state. But god, you could see the outline of his partially-hard cock through the soft cotton. You thought about what it would be like to have your mouth around his hard length, chocking on it as he rammed himself into the back of your throat.

“Ummm, I just--I thought--I mean I can---Only if you want--” The dirty thoughts clouded your brain. It made speaking a speaking a sentence almost impossible as your mouth watered just thinking about his cock.

“It was a joke, sweetheart,” he laughed heartily, “You’re too adorable.”

Pulling his boxers down his legs, he waddled tiredly over to the tub before stepping in. He groaned in pleasure at the feeling of the warm water encapsulating his exhausted body. You imagined that’s how he’d groan if you sucked his cock so hard he was seeing stars.

You were still facing the door, like you were as Steve got completely undressed. You knew if you turned around and look at him, naked and at ease, you’d jump his bones in a heartbeat. “Come sit with me, Y/N”

And you did. You turned around cautiously, like you expected, the bubbles covered his body enough for you to be able to handle yourself as you sat down next to the tub. You grabbed his hand away from his lips, running your soft fingers over his rough calloused ones. “I always see you biting your nails or cuticle or lips or your pens. Why?”

He sighed, “I’m not sure, I guess it just distracts me?” He said it more like it was a question rather than a statement. “I guess I don’t truly know why I do it, I guess I just enjoy having things in my mouth.”

You could read Steve like a book, his pupils blown with lust, his lip stuck between his teeth, a blush heating up his cheeks. You took a leap of faith.

“Yeah, like what?”

“You.”

His lips were on yours in a flurry, it took a second for you to react, but as soon as you did it felt amazing. Neither of you seemed to care about the water splashing over you as his hands trailed up your body, tugging at the hem of your shirt.

He pulls away panting, “F-Fuck, Y/N, I need you. Please. Oh my god I need you so bad,” His eyes looked as if they were welling up with tears and he looked so pretty still in the relaxing bubble bath, whimpering and whining for you. 

“God, I need you too, baby,” you stop to look in his eyes sincerely, “Are you sure you want this? I don’t want to do anything that you don’t want to do or that you will regret.” Your hand caresses his cheek.

“Just get in here with me and I’ll show you how much I want you,” he whispered, “Need you, really.”

You sighed before your hands moved shakily to take off your t shirt. As much as you wanted this, you were still scared of how the ripped super solider would feel about you and your body, As soon as your shirt was off, Steve was whimpering, dipping his hand into the soapy water to massage his aching cock. This only spurred you to take off your clothes and join him faster. 

“Did I say you could touch yourself, puppy?” Your stern voice caught him off-guard, making him pause his actions with a look of fear on his face. You step into the bathtub, straddling him. Your nails raked up his milky white thighs, trailing up his body admiring the beauty of it. “Y’Know I was planning on being nice to you because you’ve been so good to me, but you might need to be punished, baby? Do you need to punshied like a brat?”

He mewled, bowing his head in shame. You could feel him growing harder and harder by the second and you were starting to go crazy with the empty feeling inside of you that on he could fill. “No, ma’am. I’ll be good, I swear!”

“Mmmm, that’s my good boy.” Your hands slid up his chest and rested on his cheeks, hearing him preen at your praise, as you repositioned yourself over his cock. “Are you sure you want this?”

“If you dont ride me into next week right fucking now I’m going to scream, Y/N,” He breathed out with a chuckle, Grabbing your thighs, he helps you sink down on his cock. Both of you were moaning and whimpering messes by the time you were sitting at this base of him, trying to get adjusted to his large size. 

Hot tears burned at the back of his eyes as soon as you lifted yourself up off of him, only leaving the tip of him inside of you, and slamming back down on his dick. 

“Baby-please,” he whimpered, “n-need, shit, need your fingers, bad.” 

You were confused, slowing down a bit to make sure he was okay. But his puppy dog eyes showed that he was okay. Slowly taking your wrist from his cheek, he puts your fingers in his warm mouth. Moaning around them and swirling his tongue around them. He did it the same way you always dreamed about sucking his dick, chocking and gagging on his length.

“Yeah, you’re such a needy little slut for me, for this pussy. Look at you, so ruined and fucked out just because I’m fucking you.” He moaned sensually at your words making your core tighten impossibly. 

You had gotten a good idea as you were riding him. Slowly, you start to thrust your hand in and out of his mouth, watching the saliva dribble out of the corners of his mouth as he choked on you. The band in your tummy starts tightening as you feel yourself getting close. 

“Shit, fuck, baby, I’m gonna come. Oh my god, you’re make me come with your beautiful cock, puppy. So good for me, aren’t you?” Your free hand dips into the water, cupping his balls and rolling them around your soft palm.

He nods, choking on your nimble finger yet again his you massage his sensitive balls. “Gonna come,” he slurred and spit around you.\, “almost there.”

“I didn’t” you moaned as you feel his balls tighten, fall back down on his cock at a faster pace, “give you permission to do that. I thought you were going to be good for me?”

“I am” he spluttered loudly, “i am good, I swear. Just please let me come. I need it, oh shit, mommy.”

The name went straight to your core, making you grow weak as you feebly give him permission to come as you come undone with one more bounce on his large member. His hands come up to grope your breasts as he come with hot spurts inside of your tight cunt. 

“Oh my god,” you stifle a giggle as you stand up on shaky legs. You wordlessly helped him out of the tub and wrapped him in a white towel, walking him to bed while you dried yourself off. Collapsing on the bed with a grunt, the solider hollds out his hand to you, signalling you to lay down with him. You could easily tell he was still coming down from his sex high, starting to regain his self back.

“I dont know what possessed me to,” he pauses, trying to figure out a way to word the rest of his sentence, “to suck, I guess, on your hand. I’m sorry, Y/N, that was really weird of me.”

“What do’ya mean, baby? Having an oral fixation isn’t something to be ashamed of.” The words make him smile with droopy eyes, tucking his head into your neck and starting to fall asleep, happy and comfortable, cuddling you.

“And to be honest, puppy. I think it’s really hot.”

thank you so much for letting me participate in this event loves! corruption masterlist

event : @ultimate-astridwriting

it’s valentines day, unlike last year or the year before you were actually excited for today, now that you have a loving boyfriend you have something to look forward to.

you woke up besides your boyfriend in his dorm room, his head layed comfortably on your chest and his arms around your waist you giggled at how cute he looks, his hair hung over his eyes as his lips were stuck in a pout, you carefully moved his hair out of his face. ‘morning denks’ you smiled at him as he hummed in his morning voice ‘morning sunshine’ he shifted from your chest moving up and nuzzled his nose into your neck nipping and kissing at the skin making you giggle, ‘what time is ittt’ he drawled his breath hot against your neck, you grabbed your phone from the bedside table pressing the power button, ‘it’s 8:30’ you mumbled into his hair placing your phone back down, ‘imm sleepy’ giggling at his antics you pinned his arms down so you’re now on top of him and kissed his forehead before peeling away from him running into the bathroom.

you grabbed some shorts since you only slept in your underwear and one of denki’s shirts last night, slipping them on you carefully squeezed some toothpaste on your toothbrush and wet it a little under the faucet before brushing your teeth, after a couple minutes you spit the aftermath into the sink the tingly taste lingered in your mouth. where is it you thought before noticing the cleanser bottle, after a couple minutes you finished your morning routine and fixed your hair up.

slipping back into your boyfriends room you opened the curtains about to pull him out of bed you noticed he’d already gotten up, so you hopped downstairs and fixed up some coffee, ‘happy valentine’s day my baby’ denki slipped behind you his hands resting on your waist as he smothered you in kisses, you laughed as you hugged him sighing into him as comfort washed over you ‘happy valentine’s day denks’.

‘you’re both fucking disgusting’ bakugou groaned as he eyed you both from the table, you snickered as denki walked behind bakugou and ruffled his hair, ‘GET OFF ME DUNCE FACE’ he yelled making you both double over in laughter, during their bickering momo slid over to you leaning against the counter, ‘i’m going to do it’ you gaped at the girl ‘really!? you’re finally going to tell her you like her?’ you smiled jumping a little ‘shush! yes i’ll do it, but i need help’ you nod like a child at her words. ‘what do you need help with?’ you smiled sipping your coffee, ‘since we’re all going to go to the movies i need to get her alone to ask her, i have a little idea, maybe you could ask if we could go on a double date and we tell the others but you and denki go back to the dorms or something so we’re alone !, i know that if i just ask her to talk alone everyone’s going to question us’ you listened carefully smiling every couple seconds, ‘of course! momo i’m so so proud of you’ you hugged her, she returned the hug resting her chin on your shoulder ‘thank you y/n this means so much’ before you could say anything back denki came back to pester you ‘heyy hands off, she’s mine’ he said childishly making grabby hands at you, you grinned at him rolling your eyes.

after breakfast you hopped up the stairs to your room opening your closet door, what do i wear you thought brushing your hands across the line of clothes. in the end you decided on a black miniskirt and a dark green oversized jumper paired with some jewellery and boots, you did your makeup before hearing a knock on your door, opening it you smiled. ‘woah baby, you look amazing as always’ he admired, his hand traced your face until his finger reached your lips you bit him playfully as his face inched closer to yours ‘suck’, you suppressed a whimper and did as he said, your lips wrapped around his finger and he watched intently before pulling his hand away and catching your lips with his own, his lips moved in sync with yours, eagerly nipping at your bottom lip making you groan into his mouth, in that moment he slipped his tongue into your mouth moving against your own slowly, ‘Y/N DENKI ARE YOU READY TO GO?’ mina yelled from downstairs, sighing you both pulled away, you giggled at his flushed state ‘we’ll finish this later babe’ he whispered entwining his hand with your own.

you guys took UA’s minibus to the movies, even though it wasn’t far you all wanted to scream songs as long as you can, so after lots of yelling and singing you arrived at the cinema, you sat inbetween denki and mina, you love the aesthetic of the cinema, the dimmed lights leaving only a screen to brighten the room, you leaned over to your boyfriend nudging your nose against his cheek ‘hi baby’ he laughed at your motions taking your hand with his own kissing the back of it before moving his hand to your cheek giving you a gentle kiss, you didn’t realise your friends all watching you ‘alright we get it you’re in love’ mina pouted before slumping into your shoulder ‘i want someone to be disgustingly in love with’ the pout not leaving her lips. you moved so your head was on top of hers ‘you’ll find love bub’ to which she just sighed ‘denki can you please give me your girlfriend, i think i’m in love’ you all laughed as denki took the arm closest to him and trapped it between his own arms ‘too bad she’s mine’.

after a lot of popcorn and fizzy drinks it was time for your plan with momo, ‘hi ! jirou.. would you like to come on a double date with kaminari and y/n’ momo blurted out a little red, ‘oh.. i’d love to’ she said as warmth took over her face. ‘im so proud of you !!’ you half yelled hugging momo, ‘i was so scared she’d say no’ she sighed in your arms smiling. in the distance denki’s eyes flickered to you, a comfortable smile on his face as he watched you, the girl he’d do anything for, his eyes twinkled ‘i’m so lucky to have her’ he said quietly, ‘i remember when you had the biggest crush on her and you couldn’t even talk to her’ kirishima laughed admiring the love you share.

-‘oh- uh hi y/n’ the blonde boy stuttered out, ‘hey denks are you okay?’ you smiled at your crush, it was 8pm you and all your friends were at a beach, and since you’re in your first year you weren’t really allowed to be outside this late but no one had to know that, the sky in front of you was setting in hues of blue and pink, rippling like a puddle with the essence of magic. ‘i’m okay but you look cold’ he avoided your gaze looking at the goosebumps on your skin, you both sat around the campfire with your friends, mina and kirishima played cards as bakugou yelled at midoriya, momo and jirou talking about the ocean, sero and tsu comparing their quirks, the waves crashing on the beach. ‘i’m a little cold but i’m okay’ you smiled shifting closer to him, his breath hitched a little, instead of asking he just took a jumper from his bag and motioned you to lift your arms up which you rolled your eyes and did as he giggled, ‘thank you denki’ your eyes look like gems he thought. ‘denki?’ you were pouting he smiled at your expression leaning towards you a little ‘mm’ you giggled at him taking his hand from his lap onto yours, he looked up at you with bug eyes ‘can i-um’ he started he lost his words staring at you , you looked away smiling at his shy side and shifted closer to him your knees now touching. to see his reaction you placed your chin on his shoulder making him stare at you harder with the same bug eyes, you lifted your head a little now feeling his breath on your lips, nudging his nose with your own you kissed him, gently moving your arms around his neck and he relaxed into it placing his arms around your waist pulling you closer to him, he hummed into the kiss which made you smile, feeling you smile into the kiss you both pulled away. ‘dont laugh at me’ he pouted as your friends stopped and closed their mouths which were open in shock and yelled things along the lines of ‘FINALLY’ and ‘DENKI YOU DIDNT ELECTROCUTE HER’.-

that was yours and denki’s favourite day and here you are still going strong 2 and a half years later, you both only lost your virginity earlier this year but you trusted eachother and couldn’t imagine losing it to anyone else.

‘hey denks it’s time to go back to the dorms’ you smiled tugging on his hand, ‘jirou said yes!?’ he asked as his eyes lit up with joy for his friend ‘of course she did dummy come onn’. for the next hour you were meant to be watching a mini movie but for the plan momo had come up with you were meant to be back at the dorms and jirou and momo at the ‘double date’ in the restaurant next to the cinema.

10 minutes later you arrived at the dorms and threw your bag on his gaming chair before slumping down onto your boyfriends bed sighing. he laughed moving your bag to the end of the bed and sitting into the chair, ‘baby come here’ you glanced over at him motioning to his lap ‘mmm tired’ you pout as you shuffled over and climbed into his lap, he shifted forward slightly to allow your legs to sit behind his back. ‘how long do we have until the others get back?’ he said into your neck, glancing at the time you replied ‘uhh around 40 minutes’ you felt him smirk into your neck before biting down making you suppress a whimper ‘perfect’.

‘denks what are you-’ before you could finish your sentence he reached under your jumper and cupped your breast, squeezing it slightly. you sighed as your head fell back grinding down into him, ‘feel so fucking good’ he groaned catching your lips with his own, your mouth a mess of tongue and saliva together, you both pulled away a string of your spit between you, as he pulled your jumper off he thrusted his hips up making you moan out and whine at the lack of friction, wetness pooled beneath your legs, he parted his legs a little and picked you up placing you on his thigh, ‘wanna try something new sunshine’ he whispered darkly in you ear, you nod at him making him move towards your ear biting at it ‘use your words’. whimpering you said

‘yes denki p-please’

he smirked at your words pushing your hips down into his thigh your wet panties rubbing against him, groaning he gripped your thighs ‘so fucking wet, i wanna see you get yourself off on my thigh’ he whispered his breath tickling your neck, embarrassed you started moving your hips groaning as your back arched slightly allowing space for denki to move his mouth down from your neck to your bra, he slid the straps down and sighed in pleasure at your hardened nipples taking one into his mouth and kneading the other with his fingers, his other hand pushed down on your hip as you worked against his thigh, he moaned loudly from your thighs rubbing against his cock, you felt a familiar knot in your stomach ‘d-enki i need more’ you whimpered, he moved his hand from your hip down to your clit as he moved up to your collarbone sucking dark patches across your body chuckling he sighed ‘you want my sparks again baby?’ you shuddered and moaned at his words, he rubbed messy circled on your clit a few sparks of yellow emitted below you both as you got faster on his thigh, you were shaking from the sparks but it felt so good ‘good girl, you look so fucking hot like this, your cum all over my thighs’ he groaned as his eyes rolled back a little, the knot in your stomach began to grow his fingers still working at your clit, you brought a hand down to his cock swiping over the head with your fingers the precum coating the tip, he shuddered at your touch moving his lips back to your tits, he could feel you close to your high, ‘let go baby, cum all over my legs’ you brought his hand over your mouth as you moaned out releasing over him, he did the same hearing your moan.

breaths heavy he lifted your hand up from his dick back to your lips ‘open up’ you did as he told, he shoved his fingers in your mouth and watched as you sucked them clean groaning at the sight.

‘6 minutes till they get back’ he smiled ‘do you think we have time for-’ you read his mind ‘mm no harm in trying’, he grinned lifted you up, you wrapped your legs around his waist as you fell onto the bed giggling, ‘couldn’t have put it better myself sunshine.’

#toptiercouple

~Kim Inseong~

this man

DORK ALERT

he will ask for cuddles in the most dramatic way

you’re at the dorm visiting him before he starts filming for his new show

you know that you wont be able to see him for a while and youre a little sad

inseong of course knows this

so he wants to make today extra special

he surprised you with flowers and your favorite snacks 

he even bought you a penguin plushie that was almost the size of you

so now youre sitting on the couch waiting for him to come back so you could start the movie you wanted to watch

inseong was watching you from the kitchen

you were playing with the sleeves of his sweater that you were wearing staring blankly at the screen in front of you

he smiled softly to himself before skipping into the livingroom

“____, dont look so sad, cuddle me instead!”

his loud voice nearly made you jump out of your skin

he plopped onto the couch next to you and wrapped his arms tightly around you

he pulled you into his chest and slowly rocked you back and forth

a smile came to your face as you rested your head on his chest

“it wont be long, i promise ill call you everyday, okay?” 

he assured you that he’ll come see you as soon as filming was over

you knew that he would and you were more than willing to wait for him

because you love him and there was nothing that would ever change your mind

even if he is a major dork that makes you cringe more often than not

~Lee Jaeyoon~

bias wrecker number 1

did you guys see how hard he practiced for the jealous stage on kingdom

i might cry

i hope he got enough time to rest after hurting his knee

you were at your apartment when youngbin called you letting you know that jaeyoon was on his way to the hospital

of course you were worried but he assured you that he was okay he just hurt his knee

sObBiNg

of course you told him that you would meet him there and quickly got dressed

once you finally reached the hospital your boyfriend was staying at you found youngbin who was waiting for your outside

“is he okay? hes not too hurt is he?” 

“he’ll be okay, he just has to rest for a while, i told him you were coming”

as quickly as he could he led you into the room where jaeyoon was lying restlessly

when he heard the door open his head shot over to you and he smiled sadly

you quickly composed yourself and smiled, walking over to him

you sat in the chair next to him and the two of you talked for a while

he told you about coming in last place, feeling like he didn’t work hard enough

it hurt you to see him like that and you did everything you could to reassure him that you were proud of him and he did the best that he could

he began to grow sleepy while talking to you and you could tell

“can you spend the night here with me?” 

you almost squealed out loud as he sleepy state but you just nodded and agreed

he scooted as far as he could to the side of the bed to make room for you

you laid down next to him and he immediately wrapped his body around yours hugging you as closely as he could

he easily fell asleep to you petting his hair and whispering sweet nothings to him

i squealed

~Lee Sanghyuk~

bEaNnnnN

hes so adorable i cant handle it

he also may be my moms favorite she doesnt know yet

although he is a dork he is very serious when it comes to his relationship with you

you are the light of his life and he will treat you as such

but youre still not safe from his pranks and constant jokes

he came to your apartment in his next attempt to bug you 

but when he noticed that you weren’t your normal bubbly self he placed himself next to you on the couch

you immediately reacted and rested your body against his

he leaned back into the cushions and pulled you into his lap

he would occasionally kiss your forehead letting out small hums

he would listen intensely as you tell him about you day

you explained why you were sad and he acted as if it happened to him

giving you advice on how to deal with the situation

it was rare for you to see him so serious but you loved that he was willing to help you with whatever problem that you had

even if it was something small a small trivial matter that didnt have any meaning

once he was sure that you were okay and they two of you would joke around

being the little shit that he is he would pin you down on the couch and began to tickle you

“yah, knock it off!” 

you tried your best to push him off of you

but our man is swole and was not letting you off that easy

once he finally decides youve had enough flops down and lays on top of you

“youre lucky youre cute”

you couldn’t stop the growing smile on your face as the two of you continued to joke around

~Baek Ju Ho~

bias wrecker number 2

hes so precious and i cant handle the cuteness

aaaahhhhh

excuse me ill calm myself

the boy

whether he admits it or not

he will drop anything and run the minute you call his name

and if youre sad or if you pout

lord you better believe hes right there plotting the death of whoever made you sad

one day you and zuho are out walking around doing couple things

you know, being adorable

when all of a sudden you see a group of girls pointing and laughing

you werent sure what they found funny but you began to grow self concious

it didnt even have to be you that they were laughing at, but your mind got the best of you

zuho noticed the sudden change in behavior and immediately took your hand

he pulled you into a hug and rocked you back and forth slightly

he caressed the back of your head and whispered to you about how much he loves you and how beautiful you are

you looked up at him and smiled softly 

he chuckled to himself before placing a soft kiss to your lips

he continued to press light kisses all over your face as he hugged you tighter

you giggled and hid your face in his chest

the people that surrounded you couldn’t help but smile as they watched the two of you

even the girls who you thought were laughing at you they had large smiles on their faces as they all talked about wishing to have a boyfriend like him

~Kim Seok Woo~

i swear i feel like he would be the best boyfriend ever

i know im not the only one who sees it

C U D D L E B U G

he won’t be able to live if he doesnt touch you at least once every ten minutes

ten seconds

he loves your touches 

lets be honest he loves everything about you

i am not kidding

after a stressful day of filming schedules and whatever other plans he has

his favorite thing is to come home and have you waiting for him

there were a lit of times where you would fall asleep waiting for him

he knew that it was late and you wouldnt be awake so he didnt bother to call you

he walked into his dorm tired from the long day that he had

after getting a bottle of water he walked into his room and a large smile came to his face

you were lying on his bed bundled up in his blankets sleeping peacefully

he got ready for bed as fast as he could wanted to lie next to you as fast as he could

once he was ready he carefully and quietly lifted up the blanket covering up your body

he laid down next to you and slipped one arm underneath your body

he slowly rolled you over so your body was lying on top of his

once the two of you were cozy he covered your body back up with the blanket

letting out a peaceful sigh he relaxed his body against yours closing his eyes and letting your quiet breathing quickly lulling him to sleep

you woke up a little later noticing that you werent lying in the same position you fell asleep in

your eyes fluttered open and a smile came to your face as you stared at your sleeping boyfriend

you placed a small kiss on his nose before settling back down and once again falling into your slumber

~Yoo Taeyang~

baby

i love him so much

literally no words can explain it

uggghhh

anyway

his favorite thing to do outside of his idol life

iiisss 

*YOU*

so when he FINALLY gets a day off

guess what hes doing

hanging out with the love of his life of course

duh

he spent the night at your apartment the day before and now the two of you are lying in bed 

youre both lying on your sides just staring at each other with cute smiles on your faces

the aura around the two of you is peaceful, quiet, and intimate

to anyone looking in you could see the love pouring off of the two of you just by looking

you lifted your hand and brought it closer to taeyangs face, trailing your fingers up his jaw

you brought your hand up to his hairline and gently caressed his hair

“i love you”

a red hue came to taeyangs cheeks as he buried his face in your neck

“yah, you cant say stuff like that out of no where”

you giggle as his breath tickled your neck

you draped your arms loosely around his neck as he shifted to hover above you

“but its true”

“i love you” 

he buried his face in your neck again and attacked you with kisses

you squealed loudly and the two of you spent the rest of your day just like this

and neither of you would have it any other way

~Kim Youngkyun~

this dood

A W K W A R D

seriously please help him

no one really knows how the two of you got together

youre both so awkward that people dont understand your relationship

but lets be honest the two of you are perfect for each other

hwiyoung is a sensitive lil gentleman and he totally understands you

buttt sometimes it doesnt come out how he wants it to

you know, him being awkward and all

he does love your affection but he just has a hard time showing it

so a lot of the time youre the one that has to initiate it

“youngie come here”

his head shot over to look at you the minute that he heard you whine

he stood on his feet and walked over to his bed where you were sitting

“are you okay? whats wrong?” 

you just smiled and grabbed his hand pulling him onto the bed

he let out an exclaim of surprise as he landed with an oof on the bed

you acted quickly and wrapped your arms around his waist

you laid half of your body on top of his and stared down at him

his face was red as he stared up at you

“i hate it when you do that”

you laughed again as you rested your chin on his chest

“you love it and you know it”

he just rolled his eyes and the two of you continued to talk to each other while lying like that

hwiyoung locked his hands around your waist while you talked about your idea of getting a new puppy

“will you name it after me?” 

you gushed at his pout and squished his cheeks together

“youre too cute”

you loved how adorable he was and you hoped that he stayed this adorable forever

~Kang Chanhee~

fluffy fluff boy

deserves all the love in the world

supes awk

but tries to act confident around you because well

the boys make fun of him about you

our lil actor boy will be super chill about it as long as youre in the room

but the minute you leave

will whine and complain to his members

so one day when you randomly walked into the dorm and they were all there

you didnt hesitate to walk over to chani on the couch and plop down next to him 

you wrapped one arm around his waist and rested your head on his shoulder

you let out a small sigh and relaxed yourself into his body

the boys didnt say anything but they all had smiles on their faces as the two of you were in your own little world

chani slipped his hand into yours as the two of you continued to talk about your days

“when are you going to teach me your new routine?”

chani laughed and kissed the top of your head

“whenever youre ready”

he smiled when you let out a little yawn

“come on, lets go to bed”

you sat up and stood on your feet following him into his room

you plopped onto his bed and he laid down next to you

“will you sing for me?” 

he let out a tiny giggle before nodding

once the two of you were comfortable he began to sing quietly until your head lulled to the side 

once he knew you were sleeping he hugged you closer loving the fact that you were so close to him

How about Tamaki Amajiki with a shy, introvert, nerdy S/O who's studying to become a entomologist (someone who studies butterflies and moths?)

Tamaki x reader

⤷ Genre: Fluff

⤷ Word Count: 2300+

⤷ Warnings: mild cursing

⤷ Synopsis: Tamaki is more than happy spend the day with his s/o at butterfly conservatory, since butterflies and moths are their passion. It’s just such a strange world to him, and he’s pretty nervous about it-especially when the bugs seem to take a liking to his hair

This fic is for the @bnhabookclub Bingo Event! Here’s my masterlist to see all my work for this event!

Bingo Slot: Hair Playing

This is my first one shot with little Amajiki, so sorry if it’s not very good! I lowkey wrote all this at 1 in the morning, so I honestly have no idea what sleep deprived me came up with 😂💀

Also I’m in mobile and at work so I can’t add a “Read More” 😭 I’ll try to get to it when I’m at home!

✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* ✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* ✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* ✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* ✧･ﾟ:

You gasped, your eyes blown out of sockets as you looked around at the garden. The smile you were sporting in your cheeks was uncontainable-there we’re just so many butterflies.

They fluttered to and fro like little fairies, each one having a different wing design and a different color. They were so beautiful, so delicate, their wings creating a symphony of small sounds as they fluttered on to the available flowers and trees.

You mind instantly began to pinpoint the different species, the little bodies so used to humans that they were zooming across your own as if you were apart of the forest yourself.

There was a monarch, a painted lady, red admiral, orange sulphur-

“Do-do you like it?”

Tamaki was watching you nervously, his voice nervous as his eyes trained on your shocked face.

He knew how much you loved butterflies and moths, something he had learned about you very early on in your relationship. You had a special bond with the creatures, always researching and learning about new species each day.

After he had learned about this conservatory after you had talked about wanting to go, he knew instantly he had to buy tickets for you to go. He had made a surprise until now, your complete silence making him nervous.

Maybe you didn’t want to go here? Maybe he heard you wrong?

“Oh Tama, it’s-it’s amazing,” you breathed out, your smile evident in your voice, “its perfect,”

You grabbed his hand tenderly, your digits softly gracing the pads of his flesh. Tamaki gulped, a blush evident in his face-he still wasn’t used to this whole relationship, it was honestly scary to him, but-it felt nice. He loved having your skin against his, almost a reminder that none of this was a dream and in fact real.

Now that he could breathe a sigh of relief, he let himself melt into your touch, a nervous smile gracing his lips.

He had to admit it, this place was really breathtaking. The trees were incredibly tall, almost as tall as a whole house, the canopies dropping down as if protecting the butterflies from the outside world. The flowers decorating the floor were bright and colorful like confetti, matching the multiple colors of the butterflies. The damp dirt was sweet, making the whole conservatory smell like the earth after a rainstorm. Everything about this place felt pure and peaceful, making Tamaki feel more at ease.

You squeezed your nervous boyfriend’s hand, turning to look at his adorably shy expression.

“Cmon Tama,” you cooed sweetly, “lets go explore-“

✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* ✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* ✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* ✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* ✧･ﾟ:

Now you were sitting on the floor with Amajiki, both your legs crossed casually. You had your phone out, giggling softly as you took pictures of the shy boy.

“Geez Tamaki, I didn’t know you were such a butterfly whisperer,” you giggled, taking another round of pictures of him.

He arms were stretched out along his body, a squirming expression on his face as he tried not to move. Amajiki had to have at least 10 butterflies on each of his arm, not including the ones fluttering on his chest and head, the butterflies somehow all crowding on to him.

“I-I didn’t know-either,” he stuttered out.

He looked so sweet like this, trying hard not to disturb the little creatures on his body.

You smiled again at the boy, settling into the floor as you peered into his indigo blue eyes.

“Do you know what it means when a butterfly lands on you?” You asked quietly, a small smile on your lips.

“No-I dont,” Tamaki stared at you, his eyes wide. “What does it mean?”

You leaned in to him, looking at each butterfly with warmth and affection.

“Well honestly, there’s a lot of interpretations-some say it means transformation and growth, a sign you're discovering your inner wisdom. In dreams, it can mean you're on the right track about a decision, or just good luck.”

You smiled, giving him an embarrassed look.

“Sorry, you probably don’t want to hear me ramble-“

“It’s okay, you can talk about them,”” he interjected, taking care to not move his jaw too much in order to not scare the butterflies. “I think its-it’s....sweet, that you know so much,”

Tamaki was blushing, his cheeks tinged with red. He would be completely embarrased to admit it out loud but-he absolutely loved to hear you talk. You were usually shy and kept to yourself, but when ever you got passionate about something and just rambled, it was-well-nice. He could almost get a glimpse into your mind, seeing how the ideas just flowed through you and created such interesting thoughts. It was intoxicating to Tamaki, and he could never get enough of it.

“Do-do you know what this one is?” he asked timidly, his eyes trained on a beautiful red butterfly with an inky black trim.

“Oh, that one?” you cooed, leaning in slightly towards the little bug. “Thats a red admiral- red butterflies usually symbolize intense love and passion, so sometimes its associated with lovers,”

“Do-do you like those ones? The red?” he asked. His arms were beginning to feel tired frm keeping the butterflies up comfortably, but the ticklish feeling of their beatiing wings took some of the sting off his aching limbs.

You shrugged your shoulders, a carefree smile on your lips.

“I think they’re beautiful,” you said, “but they have alot of bad associated with them. Like some myths from Scotland say a red butterfly is a witch in disguise. Or from Korea, they say that if you touch a red butterfly and then touch your eye, you’ll evetnually go blind.”

Tamaki gulped, his inky blue eyes wide.

“Well thats a little-intense,” he stammered.

You giggled at his obivous shock, your nose scrunched so so adorably Tamaki felt his heart squeeze.

“Yeah just a litle,” you smiled softly.

Your hand reached out, Tamaki watching your every move as you delictely picked up an orange butterfly, its design swirling with black an white.

“This one- is one of my favorites,” you mused, your eyes drinking in lovingly the little orange creature.

Tamaki sucked in a deep breath, letting it out slowly.

“It-its beautiful,”

You simply nodded, a sweet smile on your face as you watched the butterfly flutter on your pointer.

“This is a monarch-I pretty sure you’ve seen it before,”

Tamaki hummed in agreement-come to think of it, he had learned about his butterfly. He had only vaguely seen it in grade school, maybe in one of the science books he had read in class, but he had never seen it up close.

It was so beautiful, the orange so vibrant yet gentle, the black design looing almost handpainted-perfectly and imperfectly created by Nature’s own hands.

“I think these are absolutely beautiful, but what I really like is the folklore behind them.”

“In Mexico, many pople believe that the monarch migration are actually souls from the Land of the Dead that visit each year during the Fall season. They decorate their altars, and even sometimes dress up as them to help the souls come back to earth and visit their loved ones.”

You gazes at the little creature, your eyes full of admiration aad affection.

“It just-sounds so sweet ya know? That all these people wait for these little guys, and feel so mucch hope and love for them, because they’re a promise that their love never truly dies,”

Tamakki smiled timiidly at the little monarch-how could he tell you that thats exactly how he felt aout you?

You were his little monarch- he had waiting for someone like you to come into his life, to be a promise that everything was going to be okay. That any insecurity or problem he felt he had with himself wasnt so bad as he thought it was- to give him hope that in the future things would turn out okay. He was terrfied some days that your love was all just a fantasy, that maybe, for some reason, you didnt truly love him like he did and you were just dating him out of pity. It was hard for him to get out of those very low stupors, when he felt like he had no worth, but rememebring your smile and your voice and they way you said “I love you” to him made him realize it was all in his head- that your love for each other was real. You were his promose that love was true and never just went away.

You looked up at Tamaki, your soft smile turning into a surpressed chuckle. Somehow when you had been talking about the monarchs, even more butterflies had landed on Tamaki, making hard to even see the color of his shirt now.

“Tama, do you need some help?” you giggled, looking att he doting man with wide innocent eyes.

Tamaki blinked a few times, waking himself up frm his daze-did that many butterflies land on him?

The ache on his arms seemed to get even worse, making his muscles quiver from the effort.

He gulped, a shy grin on his face.

“Y-yes, thatd be nice,” he said, loving how sweet your giggles sounded.

You began to gently help Tamaki say goodbye to his new found friends, tapping gently on his arm to send vibrations that would make the butterflies stutter away. Some were a little more determined, making you have to take it off his shirt by placing it on your finger and gently blowing on it to make it fly off.

All your gentle prodding was making Tamaki blush intensely- he honestly loved your touches, but he was always too nervous to say so.

He simply sat there, relishing the feeling of your skin against his clothing as the dull ache in his arms began to wash away.

Afer a few minutes of prodding, you finally gave a sigh.

“Alright, I think thats the most of them-just now for your hair…”

There were a few butterflies perched in his inky locks, making their colorful wings stand out even more in the almost black landscape of his tresses.

You reached out, your hands beginning to rack against his hair, lifting the strands gently in order to get the butterflies to melt away from his body.

Poor Tamaki’s face began to heat up intensely- this was something he absolutely adored. Whenever you burshed, combed, or even just touched his hair, he instantly felt at ease. His whole body felt warmed up with a bubbly sensation, and butterflies filled his stomach (no pun intended).

He sighed in content, his long black lashes fluttering downward- he could honestly sleep right here, with you touching his hair so soothingly as the butterflies beat their gentle wings in the background.

You definitely noticed that little sigh, a small chuckle escaping your lips.

“You like it when I touch your hair Tama?” you asked sweetly, your heart swelling when you see Tamaki’s cheeks look so warm.

God-why was your boyfriend so adorably cute?

I-uh-uh yes I do,” he stuttered out,clearly sheepish, “could-could you keep touching me-like that?”

You grinned softly, your hands wracking into his hair even more,

God, you could scream with joy right now. Your boyfriend rarey asked for touches, unless he was extremely tired or distraught- it took alot for him to admit he wanted any type of touches, and in public too. He must feel so calm in this moment, and you couldnt be more happy for him. Your heart swelled,a strange sensation of wanting to just kiss him taking over your body.

“Sure thing,” you whispered, your digits caressing his locks. You two sat in complete and comfortable silence, Tamaki focusing on your every touch while you simply relished playing through his har, twisting and brushing the inky black locks.

Amaki felt so at peace it was almost nervewracking-all of this felt like a dream, and he was scared that if he opened his eyes, he would wake up to nothignness. You wouldnt be there, the butterflies would disapperear, and his whole world would no longer be decorated in colors but in meek grays. You were his eveything to him, and he couldnt let you go.

Tamaki gulped, his brows knitted downi n conflict.

“Y/n I-is this a dream?”

You gave a short giggle, finding the comment quite adorable.

“No, sweetie, it isnt-why do you ask?”

“Because-this feels-it feels to good to be real.”

You faltered slightly from touching his hair, your fingers stopping in their tracks.

Too good to be real?

“Tama, I-” you tried to ask gently, but Amajiki beat you to your words. His eyes fluttered open, his hand reaching for your wrist and bringing it downwards, holding it close to his chest.

Y/n, youre-youre my marposa,” he stated, his voice almost forceful, as if he was trying to convince you of his words. “Youre my promise of love. Please-I know it doesnt make much sense but-but you mean everything to me, and I, terrified that of this is-”

Tamaki words were muffled against your lips, your flesh pressed up gently against his own. He tensed up slightly, his body full of shock until he finally succumbed to it, his cheeks on fire as he melted into you.

You pulled away from the stuttering boy, a blissful smile on your lips.

“-fake?” you finished his sentence, “Did that feel fake to you Tamaki?”

The boy didnt know what to do-his whole body felt like it was on overdrive, his skin feeling tingly and warm and shivers crawling deliciously down his back.

Only you could make his nervousness feel exhelirating, and he drank up every minute of being so intimate with you.

N-no,” he stammered, his eyes watching as you smiled at him, your head cocked towards your shoulder.

“You have nothing to worry about-Ill always be right here with you,” you tenderly grabbed for the boy’s hand, your fingers dancing lazily against his digits.

“Youre my promise too”

Total drama Surprise

14 Brunch of Disgustingness

Chris: Last time on Total Drama Island… A note from a secret admirer got Gwen and Bridgette up in each other’s business. DJ accidentally knocked his boy Trent off the airplane, sending him deep into the Earth’s crust. Leshawna showed everybody how to hang on for dear life on the moose ride. Harold showed himself to be an ace flag-catcher, until he caught sight of Heather’s… unmentionables, causing him to crash his way right off the island, but not without a little canoodling time with the fair Leshawna. And now, let’s see what’s in store for our campers on this week’s episode of Total. Drama. Island!

Iris found it odd that Chef did want her help today for breakfast. Walking and sat on the dock looking at the moon. It was calm a peaceful just the gentle sound of water. "You couldn't sleep either?" Duncan said making the teen jump. He chuckled sitting behind me. His arms wrapped me into a warm embrace. His chin ontop of her head. No words needed to be spoken they just watch the sun rise.

It was something she didn't want to end but nothing lasts forever. The campers made their way to the mess hall. Before Iris could enter Duncan grabbed her arm. "Duncan what is it?" She asked looking up at him. But the carage he gathered soon turned to cold feet making him let go. "Nothing let's see what your dad has up his sleeve today." Damb so close but no big deal. The girl thought stepping inside sitting with her team.

Iris pov

My dad  Was acting weird whenever someone tried to ask about food.  Chef would snicker and laugh along with him. " OK seriously enough, what is wrong with the two of you?" I asked making them look at me. Its no secret I get cranky when I don't get food.

Chris: Congratulations to the remaining ten campers for reaching the halfway mark in the competition! You’ll all be on the jury for the final episode.

Geoff: We got the power! Yeah!

Chris: The two teams will become one next week. But first, all the girls will be moved to the Gopher cabin and all the guys will stay in the Bass cabin. This week’s challenge is as old as history itself. A battle of the sexes [Lindsay blows a raspberry at the guys] After everyone is settled in, I’ll announce the challenge. And then, you’ll have an uh… bite to eat.[He and Chef snicker] Ready for a little good news? This week, no one will be kicked off. [everyone cheers] It’s all for reward and it’s a good one. Okay, time to relocate. Let’s move! [He and Chef snicker]

Heather started kissing up to Bridgette. It was sickening to watch so I got up and left.

(Confessional: Bridgette)

Bridgette: I was a bit worried about being the only new girl on the team. Then I figured it can’t be that bad. I don’t buy that hype about how well guys get along and how catty girls can be.

(Confessional Off)

I was sitting outside when Bridgette walked over. "Hi Bridgette have fun in the lions den." I said before laughing.

Leshawna: Nobody’s leaving until I find out who ate my pudding pockets!

Heather: I ate them. So what?

Leshawna: Whoa! Pump the brakes a minute! You’re “so what”ing me? That’s my food. No one touches my food!

Heather: Whatever, deal with it. It serves you right for leaving your junk everywhere, especially that. That is bugging me.

Leshawna: Yeah, it’d bug me too if I didn’t have anything in the front or in the back to shake.

Heather: Yeah? Well, you’ve got so much junk in your trunk, your jeans should come with a trash compactor!

Leshawna: Ooh! You want a piece of this?

Bridgette: Uh-oh.

Heather: Bridgette! It’s so good to see you! Come in, come in! Welcome to our cabin. We’re like a big family in here.

Gwen: Big and dysfunctional.

Heather: Anything you need, just yell.

Bridgette: Thanks for the awesome welcome, Heather.

Lindsay: Welcome to the club! It’ll be so much fun! As long as you do everything Heather says. Ow!

Heather [after she laughs] : Yeah, we love joking around here at girls cabin. I made sure your bunk was next to mine–

Lindsay: Hey! That’s my bed. Ow!

Heather: So we can talk and share and really get to know each other.

Bridgette: Okay, yeah! Hey, thanks everybody, I can’t wait to get to know all of–

Heather: Okay! Plenty of time to chat later! Let’s unpack.

Lindsay: This is great! I bet we’re getting along way better than the guys.

I honestly hope things are going well. This den of vipers is about to explode. If on cue I heard this.

Bridgette: Let’s build bridges, not walls!

Heather: Take your pick.

dramatic music plays as Bridgette picks Gwen and Leshwana's side

Heather: You just dug your own grave.

Bridgette: Let’s try to get along, okay? Otherwise, the guys are going to cream us, don’t you get it? Tough room.

[Chef and Chris snicker]

Heather: Stop doing that!

Chris: Let’s just tell them… Today’s challenge is… The Brunch of Disgustingness! You’ll be getting a nine-course meal. Each member of each team must finish each dish. You will not know if the next dish is grosser than the last, not as gross, or just as gross. Just that it’ll likely be… gross.

Chef: Tell them what they’ll get if they win, Chris!

Chris: The winning team spends two days at a local five-star resort where they’ll be pampered, eat gourmet nosh, and be given antibiotics against anything they may have caught while participating in this challenge! The losing team will go hungry tonight and spend the next two days here. On Total Drama Island. With Chef.

The first round was bull testicles and the point went to the girls. Oh those boys could handle a little meatball.

Chris: The score now stands at one for the girls and zero for the guys! And now, the next course in… The Brunch of Disgustingness! You guys like pizza?

Owen: I could eat pizza any time with anything on it!

Chris: Anything? How about live grasshopper pizza with tangy jellyfish sauce and live anchovies?

Owen: I could eat pizza any time with anything on it!

Chris: How about live grasshopper pizza with tangy jellyfish sauce and live anchovies?

Ok even I thought it was gross please do let me get sick.

Leshawna couldn't eat it giving the guys a point making us tied. The girls freaked on her but honestly not a big deal. "Guys its not a big deal. We will win the next round so stop complaining.

(Confessional: Chef)

Chef: I was excited about the next dish. I made it from scratch.

(Confessional Off)

Chris: All right, who’s ready for the third course? Spaghetti! Well, actually, Earthworms covered in snail slime sauce and hairballs.

I barfed when it was placed infront of me.

(Confessional )

Iris- WHO THE FUCK THOUGHT THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA?! THIS SHIT IS FUCKING DISGUSTING!

*static *

(End of Confessionals)

The guys got another point and now I am getting aggravated.

Chris: All right everybody. Time for course number four. No nine-course meal would be complete without soup. Today’s special is French Bunyon soup with hangnail crackers.

(Confessional: Geoff)

Geoff: I think they just use stuff from Chef’s bathroom floor.

(Confessional Off)

Bridgette gasps

DJ strains to eat

Trent gags

Lindsay: I didn’t even taste it.

Chris: The girls win again![Gwen, Heather, Leshawna, and Lindsay cheer] The score’s now tied up at two.

(Confessional: Bridgette)

Bridgette: I think the girls really made a breakthrough as a team.

(Confessional Off)

The rounds continue and the barfing too. But we made it to the final round.

"Oh god I think I'm going to be sick." I said trying to hold it down but I dont think I can.

C

hris: Wow, it’s still tied up. We’re down to the last course in the challenge. It’s delicious dolphin wieners. Hot dogs made of dolphin.

Bridgette [after she gasps] : But dolphins are our friends!

Heather: What are you waiting for? It’s already dead. If you don’t eat it, we don’t win.

Bridgette: Ooh, I can’t! I’m a surfer! I swim with dolphins!

Heather: Eat it!

Bridgette: No! I’m not doing it. You can’t pressure me.

The hell we can't grabbing a hot dog off the plate, and then proceeded to shove it down her throat.

"I'M NOT LOSING THIS BECAUSE YOU CAN'T GROW A PAIR! THE DAMB THING IS DEAD SO SUCK IT UP AND STUFF YOU FUCKING FACE!" They all looked at me Bridgette had tears in her eyes. She coughed it all up.

DJ: I’m with you sister. I’m not eating no dolphin.

(Confessional : Chef)

Chef: I slave over a hot stove cooking dolphin. No appreciation!

(Confessional Off)

Chris: Okay, enough. We’ll solve this by having an eat-off. The one who can drink the most shot glasses of fresh, delicious blended cockroach will be the winner. This unlikely satisfying blend of eight different cockroaches is vitamin rich for your balanced lifestyle. On your mark, get set, go!

Owen and Leshwana drink the cockroaches.

Leshawna groans two times

Chris: Owen wins!

DJ, Duncan, Geoff, and Trent cheer

Leshawna groans

Heather: Leshawna, you are completely useless!

Leshawna: Oh, uh-oh, something’s coming up. [puking]

DJ pukes

Trent:pukes

Chef: Grr… [retches]

Chris retches

Duncan and Geoff Puke

The “elimination” music plays.

Chris: The guys are the big winners today. And the girls go their separate ways. Two definitive cliques have been cemented. [Heather grunts and the door rattles] For now. What shocking surprises are in store for our campers next week as they head for the big merge? Tune in on Total. Drama. Island!

KUROO TETSURO - 3:37AM

summary - you and kuroo play hide and seek in the early hours of morning after the hot nights of mid august prevent you both from falling asleep - fluff

this was actually a prompt written by @emma_ichihara on tiktok that i absolutely needed to write about after i saw it so thank u for that queen <3

warnings - none

-

The heat in your bedroom was unbearable. Then again, you couldn’t say you didn’t expect it to be as mid august is always going to be a pain to sleep through.

You tossed about in your sheets flailing your arms and legs about trying to get some sort of breeze across your limbs only to flop down in frustration. Grabbing your phone from the side of your bed you checked the time. 2:27AM.

Your eyes squinted at the brightness of the screen and you put your phone back down only to hear it vibrate on the surface as soon as you let go of the device. Assuming it was going to be a random notification from one of your apps you almost decided to ignore it but something told you to check regardless.

Your eyes once again squinting as they adjusted to the luminous light emitting from your phone contrasting against the darkness of your room. Your heart fluttered as you read through the notification.

2:28AM - tetsoup : i know ur up right now

You unlocked your phone as you typed out your reply. A conversation flowing between the two of you.

2:28AM - thot chan : okay u got me sue me for not being able to handle the heat

2:29AM - tetsoup : would’ve thought after being around me so much you’d be able to handle the hot ;)

2:29AM - thot chan : ur a chemistry nerd u aren't hot

2:29AM - tetsoup : fail ur next chemistry exam for all i care dont ask me for help :(

2:30AM - thot chan : you wound me captain

2:30AM - thot chan : and what are u doing up right now?

2:31AM - tetsoup : same as u genius, this heat is making my body perspire more than what i’d like

2:31AM - thot chan : lmao that means u finna be smelly. go take a cold shower u farm animal

2:31AM - tetsoup : at 2am? i don't think so u imbecile, i have a better solution though

2:32AM - thot chan : and that is?

You stared at your phone expecting a reply quickly but after 5 minutes it never came.

‘Idiot must’ve fallen asleep’

You hummed as you set your phone back down and allowed your head to hit back against the soft pillows on your bed. The heat was still bothering you so it didn’t look like you were going to be getting much sleep, regardless you still tried by closing your eyes and trying to force your brain into drifting off into a peaceful slumber.

Not even 4 minutes into your attempt at forced sleep you heard your phone vibrate softly against the wood of your bedside table. Snatching it up towards your face you stared at the notification in disbelief.

2:43AM - tetsoup : im outside ur house hurry up the bugs are eating me alive

This boy.

Swinging your legs off the hurricane of sheets, pillows and your comforter, you dragged yourself over to the window to peek through your blinds. There stood your tall boyfriend with a big hoodie and sweatpants on, signature bedhead with his hands in his pockets patiently waiting for your arrival.

You smiled slightly. He really had your whole heart and you couldn’t deny that even if you tried.

Grabbing one of his hoodies you had ‘borrowed’ you threw on your shoes and quietly made your way to the front door carefully not wanting to disturb your parents and have them question your activities.

“Finally, my body was about to start decomposing from all the bugs attacking me from just standing here.”

“Sounds like a you problem.”

Kuroo pulled your smaller frame into his significantly larger one as you inhaled the scent of his hoodie. He buried his head into the crook of your neck as he gave it a soft kiss before looking back down at you.

“Come on let's go.”

You hummed in curiosity but allowed the boy to take your smaller hand into his larger calloused one and lead the way to the unknown destination.

It wasn’t rare for you and Kuroo to meet up during the night. Sure you spent a lot of time together most days but there was something about being the only ones out in such public places that made you both feel as if you were the only ones in the world. This feeling never got old to the pair of you as everytime the two of you met up in the earliest hours of morning you would find yourselves falling in love all over again with each other. These hours were the ones you held close to your evergrowing heart.

After 5 minutes of walking through the peaceful streets in your neighbourhood, Kuroo led you to the playground the two of you and Kenma would find yourselves occupied most days after school back when you were all younger. The place was such a public and overlooked one, but you all still cherished the memories created there and would sometimes find yourselves reminiscing on those times whenever you’d come back.

You let go of your boyfriend’s hand as you climbed onto the climbing structure which years ago would’ve proven to be more of a challenge for you to reach the top too. The platform a lot smaller than it used to be, you grabbed the railing and allowed a gentle breeze to run through the locks of your hair.

Kuroo looked up at you, adoration twinkling in his eyes. To him you were everything. He had known you ever since he first moved into the neighbourhood with his dad and grandparents. He used to find talking to others a struggle and found Kenma particularly hard to communicate with. You however, took the opportunity to get both boys to open up more to each other right by the reigns and within your first 6 months of being acquainted with each other, you had managed to get both boys comfortable enough to call you and each other a friend in confidence. For that, Kuroo was eternally grateful and even more so when you accepted his romantic feelings towards you 3 years ago.

“Let’s play hide and seek, you know, like we used to.”

You turned smiling to the beheaded captain. He gave you his signature smirk and turned around.

“You’ve got 30 seconds, be prepared to lose immediately.”

You laughed as he began to count up to 30, crouching behind a slide that you thought covered yourself from his view. It actually took Kuroo 54 seconds to find you and you turned the childish game into a small competition between the two of you, tallying up who could find the other the fastest each time.

It got to your 13th round and this time you were hiding inside the slide. Kuroo had yet to find you and it had been 8 minutes already. This confused you slightly as the usually perceptive boy would’ve found you by now. You climbed out of the slide and onto the platform as you glanced around your surroundings seeing no signs of him.

You raised your eyebrow as you knew the boy surely must be messing with you. He would never actually abandon you especially without letting you know.

Cupping your hands to both sides of your mouth you let yourself lean towards the railing of the climbing structure.

“Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo!”

You called out while continuing to scan the area in your view.

What you weren’t expecting was for strong arms to find their way around your waist as you felt someone's hot breath against the skin on your neck.

“I’m right here, my beautiful Juliet.”

You gasped as Kuroo kissed your neck before spinning you around to look at you directly. One of his hands supporting your back and the other moving a piece of loose hair away from your face, he stared into your eyes which twinkled under the stars. You smiled widely at him as he admired your gorgeous face.

He allowed his hand to trail down your neck until he moved his fingers to weave through your hair delicately. Moving his head down, he softly kissed your lips as you melted into his touch. Your hands moved to his broad shoulders as he deepened the kiss making you sigh in satisfaction. You hummed as he drew small circles on your back with his long fingers let your own hands move towards his untamable hair and rake through it resulting in a hum of approval from him.

You both pulled away as you studied each other's expressions. In that moment Kuroo had fallen for you even deeper if that was possible. Every fibre in his being adored you and it took so much self control to not just tackle you off the structure and cuddle you forever. You were his soulmate he was sure of that. The idea of love had never crossed Kuroo’s mind until middle school when you had both grown up a little bit more. He was focused on volleyball and keeping up his grades but you were always at the back of his mind driving him crazy to the point where he felt he had no other choice than to explore these foreign feelings for you. He would argue that by confessing to you, he had made the best decision in his life. You brought nothing but pure light into his life he was convinced you were some sort of guardian angel. You couldn’t be real. You were a living goddess and there were times when he’d feel like you were too good to be true.

The feelings were mutual on your side too. Kuroo Tetsuro had been a challenge for you to get to open up but when he did he didnt hold back on subconsciously taking your heart and occupying your thoughts on the daily. The two of you held such a deep and indescribable love for each other sometimes you felt like it was too hard to contain.

Brought back to reality by your hand caressing his cheek Kuroo turned to you and smiled so genuinely.

“Y/N, I am so so in love with you.”

“I know Tetsu. I love you too. So much.”

You pecked his cheek as he guided you off the climbing structure and onto the soft grass surrounding the playground.

You both laid there in a comfortable silence as you allowed the sounds of distant cars passing through the busy city of tokyo, and the soft sounds of crickets chirping as you cuddled up to Kuroo’s chest.

He wrapped his muscular arms around you and pulled you close to him whispering “I love you” over and over again quietly enough for only you to hear.

The early morning had reached 3AM and you both knew you’d have to make your way back to your homes soon but right now nothing else mattered.

The only thing on your minds was the fact you were both stupidly in love with each other and you would continue to allow yourselves to fall in love over and over again as you stared at the stars whispering small professions of love to one another for the remaining time you spent outside.

Kuroo Tetsuro, a perceptive boy who hadn’t considered love until you came into his life, had never felt such raw emotion in his life and it was these early hour moments which he would hold close to his heart for the rest of his life which he had planned to go through with you by his side.

[xcrystalzero]

Hi! May i have a romantic genshin matchup? I've never asked something like this before but it seems like such a fun thing! :D

I'm a 19yo bisexual girl. Im 5'9 and i have green eyes and long brown hair. I have a deep monotone voice (which im insecure about >.<), my way of speaking is also monotone and im extremely calm and patient, which is why on the outside i seem like im unemotional.

I'm quite introverted, and enjoy spending time alone, since socializing drains my energy a lot. But if i really trust someone i can be around them all the time without getting tired :) i get along well with both introverts and extroverts, as long as my boundaries are respected. i like to think that im a very empathetic person who can easily see things from many perspectives. I'm not very good at comforting people, instead im better at giving advice on how to deal with their problems/feelings. I love unconditionally and im very loyal. I'm a very sleepy person.... Sometimes i take several naps a day, sleeping is awesome lmao

I'm a bit insecure, but one skill that im proud of is knitting and crocheting, which i spend a ton of time doing. I also love nature, including the less "popular" things such as bugs and reptiles and "boring" plants.

My love language is physical touch and quality time. I just enjoy being in the presence of people i love, even if we arent talking or doing anything. Cuddling is very important to me since it comforts me and makes me feel closer to the person.

I hope this is enough?? Im very excited to see who you would choose and why, but of course dont push yourself if youve gotten a ton of these <3 thanks for your time :D

Hey anon! So this one was actually kind of hard and I honestly had a few people in mind before I settled on this one. So, without further ado...

I match you with ... Keqing!

-She's rather extroverted and straightforward but not rowdy so you guys wouldn't get on each other's nerves. She's out a lot for work, but occasionally also enjoys a fun social event and will be sure to drag you along with her.

-She really admires the patience you have with everything. She's sometimes quick to get heated and appreciates the stability and calm that you bring to her life. Of course, that means that she also tries to motivate you whenever possible and push you to achieve your full potential.

-If you knit something for her, she'll basically melt on the spot. Keqing is so focused on always moving forward and doing things on her own that if you do something like that, she'd just fall in love with you even more.

-Loves your voice. Kind of wishes her voice was deeper and she lets you know as much. Can sometimes be a little blunt and "tough-lovey" because she's not going to let you be insecure when you're so cool.

-I feel like one of Keqing's love languages is also physical touch, just not in public. She seems like she likes to cuddle and that she'd be pretty good at it, so that's good!

-After a long day working, she'll sometimes come home and just go straight into your arms to join you for one of your naps.

Even half-asleep, you can hear the door fly open and the sound of heavy footsteps making their way inside. Uh oh. You flip over, looking towards the door of the bedroom just as that too swings open to reveal the most disgruntled Keqing you've ever seen.

It takes all your self control not to burst into laughter right then and there. Instead, you prop yourself up slightly, looking over towards her with a smile on your face.

"Hello love, how was work?"

All you get in response in a hoarse sigh as Keqing swiftly works off her outerwear before promptly hopping up into the bed beside you. You can't stop the chuckle this time as she immediately wraps her arms around your waist, burying her face in your chest.

"That bad huh? You need to talk?"

"Nope, no advice right now. Just cuddles and sleep." Her voice is muffled but you agree nonetheless, lowering the two of you back down into the sheets.

"Of course. Sleep tight."

-Dates where you two go hiking and you decide to show her this cool new bug you found. She jumps back and won't come anywhere near you (she's not scared... kind of) and you will never stop teasing her about it.

Words come easier when your eyes don’t distract me - Part Two – Together

Continuing on from ....

Harper

‘I can’t believe the Chief made that for you.’ #Charlie spoke between a few mouthfuls of pasta and some salad they brought with them.

‘I don’t know, Uncle Billy does like to carve, he always has his knife on him’ #Jessica was stretched out on the grass, looking up towards the blue sky. Her plate of food to the side of her.

The sun really had come out to shine for La Push today. The thought brought with it the memory of Collin.

He really had been so kind to me. I mean people always promised to talk to their friends and family for others, but he 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 did it. I mean who in today’s day did that?

‘Well, Collin is a handsome creature.’ #Teddy brought the conversation back around to him again. When we came to sit outside and have our lunch, I’d been poked into giving them all a little update on how Collin and I had messaged late night. I didn’t give them the ins or outs of the conversation itself, but I did end up showing them the picture he sent from second beach.

‘Yeah most of us tend to stay around First beach, easier to get the boards from the parking lot down to the sea. But it is beautiful down there too.’ #Charlie had said. ‘Hey, we should all head down there and maybe show Harps some of the sights?’ He added.

I licked the side of my lip, I hadn’t told them that I had an open invitation to go down and join Collin and the baby girl for a walk, or that I have rain checked him on the whole ‘Tour of La Push’ thing. But my sheepish movement was not missed by #Teddy’s sharp eyes. ‘Oh, I have a feeling Harps has a better offer for both of those things.’ He teased. ‘And, it’s about time we get to meet Collin at the weekend too.’

#Charlie, #Teddy and #Jessica had bugged me every day about the plans for this ‘Friends doing DIY’ thing Collin had suggested. And since I’d given them the date for the coming weekend, it was on #Jess and #Teddys minds.

‘We already know him Ted.’ #Charlie nudged his boyfriend and laughed.

‘No, we kind of know of him, and sure have seen him in passing. But now we get to really 𝙈𝙚𝙚𝙩 him. And I have strict instructions to make him work for it from Jenna.’ #Teddy sang the last part of his sentence.

I groaned and shook my head; finishing off my lunch, I placed the dish to the side and turned on the blanket to lay on my stomach, pulling my hair up to the side so that the sun could touch my neck. Closing my eyes, the warmth of the rays reminded me of the warmth I felt around Collin. And I chastised myself, what was wrong with me? Why couldn’t I stop thinking about him?

This was all a little too much for me. “Of course, you are all talking behind my back.” I wanted the ground to open up and take me. I knew there was no malice in anything they would say. And I liked the fact that my family back in Thompson and my new friends in La Push were becoming friends too. But this?

‘Why did it take you so long to ask the boy anyway Harps? He clearly wanted to help you girl.’ #Teddy put his plate down to the side.

“Because he was being sweet, and I don’t wish to take advantage of him?” I replied.

‘There are plenty of girls on the Rez who would happily jump in and take advantage of him.’ #Jessica had added before filling her mouth with pasta.

“Okay, well good for them?” I flicked a screwed-up napkin at her making her laugh.

‘Would you both give her a break. The kid was sweet, Harps helped him and his dog so it’s his way to pay it back.’ #Charlie had come to my rescue. And Both #Teddy and #Jessica had rolled their eyes at us.

‘Oh please! Did you see how he was looking at her?’ #Teddy continued.

To which #Charlie had replied. ‘How would you know? You weren’t even there.’

#Teddy pointed to #Jess ‘She was, and I got to hear the full low down. And not to mention the thing at the bar!’ #Charlie kicked his boyfriend who looked mortified by it.

My eyes had moved from one to the other and then to Jess who seemed to be in on the secret too. “What is he talking about? What happened at the bar?” Nobody spoke. “Anyone at all want to enlighten me?”

#Charlie was the one to break first. “A few of the men in the bar had been talking about you.” He quickly added. “Nothing bad, but you have as I told you before... You have made it onto a few guys lists... Okay maybe more than just a few.. And then Gemma from the diner had told them they were too late because Collin Littlesea had sealed the deal.”

I hid my face into my hands, then pulled myself up to gather all the plates, taking them back inside with me. “What must he think of me?” I muttered.

My phone sounded as I placed the dishes in the sink in the breakroom, taking my phone out of my back pocket. Seeing his name made me smile, and then feel a little scared at the same time now. What would he think of me if he knew I was the reason for so much gossip? That people I didn’t even know were talking about him in a bar.

To COLLIN: [ I would have to concur, there is something about Billy that makes me feel at home. He told me that the wolf was a protector, and that my wolf would look after me. I’m not sure if I should take him home, or leave him here in the office? I would love to hear and learn more. But I wouldn’t want to intrude on your time. HLJ ]

Hitting send hurt a little, but it was the right thing to do. Give him an outand hope he would take it. But there was that voice in my head. ‘You really don’t want him to take it. You know you don’t.’ What was happening to me? When did I become so lost?

Collin

#Brady wasn’t wrong… It did look good. Amazing even. But I was eager to finish the job now, I hated leaving things almost finished. But treating the wood when there was still sawing and sanding going on in the space was pointless. I told myself repeatedly that the rest of the job would go faster now that Brady and I would be working on that part of the restaurant too. I stepped away from the noise and the boss’s admiration of the job; when I felt my phone vibrate.

I smiled at her message. Of course, #Billy had told her about the Wolf. Now I wondered exactly what their conversation could have been about. My uncle had said,

‘𝒮𝒽𝑒 𝓂𝒶𝓎 𝒷𝑒 𝓂𝑜𝓇𝑒 𝑜𝓅𝑒𝓃 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝒶𝓃𝓈𝓌𝑒𝓇𝓈 𝓉𝑜 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝓊𝓃𝒶𝓈𝓀𝑒𝒹 𝓆𝓊𝑒𝓈𝓉𝒾𝑜𝓃𝓈 𝓈𝒽𝑒 𝒽𝒶𝓈… 𝐵𝓊𝓉 𝒹𝑜𝓃’𝓉 𝓁𝑒𝓉 𝒾𝓂𝒶𝑔𝒾𝓃𝑒𝒹 𝒸𝓊𝓁𝓉𝓊𝓇𝒶𝓁 𝒷𝒾𝒶𝓈𝑒𝓈 𝒸𝑜𝓁𝑜𝓊𝓇 𝓎𝑜𝓊𝓇 𝒹𝑒𝒸𝒾𝓈𝒾𝑜𝓃𝓈.’

What had he meant? What had she said to him that made him think this? Did the Chief think she was ready to hear the truth, the whole truth? It sounded like he did, but I couldn’t ask him, he would expect me to figure this one out on my own. He had told me all he intended to, that was #Billy’s way. The Spirits presented us with our paths, and we made our own choices. He offered guidance, or a hand to pull us back when we strayed, but still we had to choose to take it or not.

The corners of my mouth turned down a little at the thought that she was intruding… I had been trying as hard as I could without sounding like a full-on stalker to let her know, there was no way any time spent with her or talking to her was considered lost or intruded upon. In fact, I’d not had nearly enough of her time. I would happily and greedily monopolise as much of her time as she’d allow.

To HARPER: {{ Just take a moment and listen, he’ll tell you where he belongs. I could call you tonight if work doesn’t pull you away? Or would you rather hear them in person? And what happened to our little foolish agreement? You’re just making me feel greedy now because I fully intend to intrude on any spare moment, I can steal with you. }}

I smiled and hit send. A throat was cleared behind me. It was #Brady, trying very hard not to read over my shoulder… not that it mattered as soon as we patrolled together; he’d be privy to the whole conversation.

“We need to clear out for an hour to let the kitchen people get the equipment in before the counter goes up.” He said and I nodded, following him outside. I hadn’t even heard the massive truck pull up; a long flatbed with massive units, all shiny, stainless steel and glinting in the sun. “How does the beach sound?” #Brady asked, sensing I had a lot on my mind.

Without missing a beat, he climbed into the driver's seat of my truck. His van got such crappy mileage that we generally used mine when we went anywhere together. I kept my eyes fixed out the window as he drove and didn’t torment me with questions.

Harper

I needed a reason for some alone time and washing up after lunch gave me that. Drying my hands on the towel I moved to my phone. He’d replied and my heart leaped at the sound telling me of the new message to read. Once again, I was licking the side of my lips, leaning back on the small sink as the thoughts went through my mind.

‘Hey.’ #Charlie stood in the door waving a white tissue, looking at me with his trademark smile. ‘I come in peace?’ I couldn’t help but to smile. ‘There she is. Look you know those two, they love you and care about you. It’s the only reason they are so excited about all this. Give it time, they will move on to the next thing.’ He came to stand beside me, his elbow nudging into my side and I shifted a little.

“I’m sorry, I don’t know what is going on with me lately. I’m so out of character.” Pushing the rim of my glasses up my nose, I turned to the side to face him.

‘You are fine, it’s a lot. You didn’t do well that first time you and I met outside of the bar too. You are a little—’ He really put some thought into it before saying the next words. ‘—Well, I don’t want to say naïve. But there is something innocent about you Harper.’ This made me laugh, moving my hand over to cover my mouth as I leant over myself letting myself really laugh freely.

“Are you kidding me? If anybody from Thompson heard you right now, they would believe you were crazy. I am a lot of things, but innocent? No way.” I was still laughing when he took a hold of my face too look at me.

‘I said it wasn’t the right word Harper Lee. But let me try to tell you how I see it. When you see those, you love in trouble, the worlds armies couldn’t stop you from doing right by them. But when it comes to yourself, you are lost when somebody asks you how you are doing, and they really mean it. When it’s not just lip service. That’s what I mean when I say there is something a little innocent about you. And now, here you are in a new ish place. And you are surrounded by me, Ted, Jess, Sue and the Boss. All people who want nothing but the best for you. You didn’t expect it. Let alone bumping into someone like Collin. It’s a lot, it’s overwhelming. I get it. But don’t close down, don’t think about running. Give this life a chance. Give all of us a chance, we may just surprise you ’

I was left speechless, blinking at my friend as he stood holding my face in his hands. How had he seen so much when he of all people wasn’t the kind to look. #Charlie was the happy go lucky one, it was #Teddy who nothing got past. But now I wondered how wrong I had gotten my assessment of the two. The shifting of feet behind us, and then the smile on #Charlies face told me who was there. He dropped his hands so that I could turn to see.

‘I’m Sorry Harps.’ The soft voice of #Jessica came first.

‘Please forgive us darling, we love you.’ #Teddy was right next to me, pulling me into a hug. ‘This doesn’t mean I will take it easy on the kid. He needs to prove himself worthy.’ He winked and then cried out, and I guested #Charlie had pinched him again.

“No, I’m sorry guy’s I know you didn’t mean anything by it. I’m just not used to all of this.” I waved my phone in the air.

‘He is still texting you?’ #Jessica jumped up and down.

“He is, after I just gave him another out.” Nodding my head, I was looking at my screen. Thinking about this reply again.

‘Another? How many outs have you given him?’ #Charlie asked, he was leaning back on the sink again, his arms crossed over his chest and that smile on his lips.

“I don’t know, maybe two outs I guess.” Brushing my fingers over my cheek.

‘Let’s not forget the time she took to get in contact in the first place. Maybe it’s the boy we need to protect and not little Miss Jenkins here?’ #Teddy was clicking his fingers at me. Making everybody laugh.

That was the next topic, how they could protect Collin from me and my inability to give him time. I slipped out from the room and replied.

To COLLIN [ I will ask him and then listen to his reply. I am giving you outs from that agreement, and you don’t want to take them? So, Let’s be foolish together, if work allows for it. I would like to hear all about it. I don’t mind how you choose to tell me; I will listen as you find ways to become a little greedier. HLJ ]

I was stood before my office door without knowing that was where I was headed to. My eyes landing on the small wolf, and I stood leaning on the doorframe, tilting my head to the side. “I’m listening, where would you like me to keep you?”

Collin

Her reply came in just after Brady pulled up by the beach, he saw me take out my phone and I could see a hint of a grin on his face. Some of the other guys were on the beach… taking advantage of the sun. I spotted #Kim and #Jared, #Sam and #Emily. #Quil was there too and I knew he’d be missing #Claire.

Harper’s message gave me mixed emotions. I knew there was a fine line between her shyness and politeness. But I’d not really thought it was her way of giving me an out… That was exactly what I didn’t want.

To HARPER: {{ No, definitely not looking for an out. Maybe you haven’t noticed my subtle attempts to weave my way in? Maybe one of your friends can draw me a map after I meet them… At least it won’t be the first time. I make a terrible first impression when I turn into my rambling self, I’m sure you remember. It always happens when I’m around you. You make me nervous in the best way I can imagine. }}

I hit send, finally climbed out of the truck and trekked out onto the sand. I stood next to the two girls, where they sat watching the guys play soccer, I wasn’t in the mood right now and I knew there was valuable wisdom to be gained from the imprints. #Kim scooted away from #Emily a little and patted the sand between them. I sat. The guys acted like they’d not noticed that I had passed on joining the game.

“Thank the Spirit’s!” #Kim exclaimed and moved closer. “Sun or no sun it’s still chilly this close to the water.” She leaned into my arm and I could tell she wasn’t cold, even if she did feel cooler to me.

“Happy to be of service.” I grinned at her.

“How are you doing kid, hm?” #Emily, of course, got right to the point.

“Amazing…” I admitted honestly, they smiled.

“And… Terrified.” Also, honest. I saw #Sam freeze, just for a second and a muscle jumped in his jaw when he seamlessly got back into the game. #Kim laid her hand on my arm.

“That’s okay, Collin.” Her voice was soft. “Right, #Emily?” her hand still on my arm.

“Of course.” Emily smiled that smile of hers that could melt a vampire’s heart. “But you need to have faith that this will all work out.”

“I do… I mean. I know, it will. I’m just worried that moving too fast will send her running back home.” I admitted honestly again. I didn’t admit out loud that I didn’t think I could survive that.

“Her home is here now.” #Emily reminded me.

“I mean Thompson Falls… she still has –“ I was cut off by #Kim.

“Okay, so yeah… that’s a possibility.” I felt #Emily stare through me at Kim. “But if she does, she’d be going back there to #Seth and #Kenzi and they wouldn’t need to keep the secret anymore. I don’t think she will… But you know they will speak to her and maybe then you can follow her when she has time to think about things.”

“Let’s not forget, Leah… She trusts her and Sue. I don’t think she’d leave town without talking to them.” Emily added. “She has people to help her with this. You can’t overthink it. You’re both paddling upriver right now, the only way you’ll get there is if you start rowing together.”

Harper

I found myself stood still, becoming lost in my own mind, trying to listen to my little wolf. Then thinking this was a ridiculous notion. How could a wood carving talk to me? Then there was that voice again, the little pull whispering in its own way telling me to take a leap of faith.

My phone pinged right away, making me wonder if I was disturbing his day and work. “I should know better than to be playing text ping pong in a working day and disturbing him.” Chastising myself as I opened to read his reply. I don’t know how it happened. But reading this reply of his. it gave a feeling, a rush of excitement. Something I’d never really felt before. There was a tingle in my cheeks and my heart started to thud in a new way.

‘I’m sure Ted and Jess would be more than happy to make him a full on technicoloured 4D map with some help from Kenz and Jenna.’ I all but jumped out of my skin.

“Char! Make some noise man.” laughing I leaned back into him. “And stop reading my messages over my shoulder.” Mustering up the most school teacher voice I could.

‘It’s hard not to read them. I mean you have been stood here looking at the carving the Chief made you, and then your phone.’ He had a point. I was being rude to my friends.

“I’m sorry. It’s so rude of me, especially since Ted and you came to have lunch with us.” Moving to put my phone away. But he took a hold of it and shook his head.

‘Not what I meant. I know I haven’t known you long Harps, six or seven months is nothing. But I like seeing you this way. You’re a little less—’ He was choosing his words carefully. ‘—Well. There is no other way to put it… You are a little less Uptight.’ He took my hand and set the phone back into my open palm. ‘Also, he is a grown man. if he is busy or in the middle of something. He will reply when he can. The fact that he is replying in the day, means one of two things. 1. The kid really likes you. Which he just told you because you are really bad a taking a hint. And 2. He has the time to reply. I am sure. You are not disturbing him. Now reply and then come say bye, we must head off. I told the Boss I would set up for opening today. Now.. Stop overthinking it, and just go with the flow for once.’

#Charlie kissed my head, turned and gave me a moment to reply. But what could I say?

To COLLIN: [ No more outs it is, I wish you luck! And One of those friends just told me I’m bad at taking hints, and that I am an overthinker. I may have missed the subtle attempts; however, we clearly have an audience guiding the way. My first impression of you is far from terrible trust me when I say this. I don’t wish to make you nervous, however it would be a lie if I didn’t admit to being the very same way. HLJ ]

I didn’t over think it, I was trying not to be so 𝘜𝘱𝘵𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 uptight as Char put it so well. hitting send I turned to re-join the others.

Collin

The girls had a point, I needed to ease her into this, and I needed to start soon and not do it too slowly. It was the only thing that was fair. It was her life too; she had a right to know what was happening to her. But without being completely terrified at the same time… I would start with the stories and then with the truth. That they weren’t fairy tales… they were history and well… real.

#Kim had lain against my arm; she’d always been the big sister type to the younger guys. And I remember being totally baffled when I heard that #Jared had once thought she was plain. It was impossible to comprehend now; as he walked up the beach towards her, the way he looked at her. She didn’t notice him approaching until a few seconds after I did, and she lifted her head. My attention turned to the way she looked at him now.

That moony, Disney-princess-kinda-smile. It wasn’t how all the girls looked at their wolves; it was unique to #Kim. #Emily’s was adoration and respect. #Rachel’s was a mix of mild annoyance and intense attraction. And #Ness… she was a strange creature and hers changed every single time.

I instantly found myself wondering how Harper would look at me. I’d seen the girl’s looks in the guy’s faces time and time again. But their minds were always on details, or how she looked, what she had said or done the second before or after. They were blind to how the girls must have felt in the moment because they were so full of their own feelings. I tried to stop my mind skipping ahead too far.

“Stealing my girl, Pup?” #Jared smirked at me.

“Just keeping her warm for you, Jay.” I smirked and he flopped onto the sand and rested his head on her lap. #Kim laughed and touched his cheek, he turned into the touch and kissed her palm. I turned away. I had seen too many of their private moments. I tried my hardest to never pry.

My phone buzzed twice in quick succession. I read the Bosses first because it always took me time to reply to her. So, I could sound less awkward than I did in person. “Brady! Boss says their done back there.” I called to him and he started to say his goodbyes.

I nudged #Kim’s arm and grinned. “See you soon.” I said and she smiled, rubbing my shoulder. I gave #Emily a hug before she could tell me too.

“Have faith, little one.” She whispered; it was ironic. I was taller than her from the age of fourteen and she still called us that. Us being #Brady, myself and all the pups that came after.

#Brady drove back, and I read Harper’s message.

TO HARPER : {{ I don’t know if it’s a case of you being bad at taking hints or not. I’m not great at dropping them… maybe it’s a foolish combination of both? I was never really for being the centre of attention, but I suppose it’s not necessarily a bad thing either. Do I really make you nervous? You are so beautiful… I find it hard to believe a dorky guy like me, could make you nervous. I know it shouldn’t… but that kinda makes me smile. Is that weird? }}

I hit send and laughed to myself, then look up at #Brady. “I make her nervous.” I said, smiling far too much. He laughed at me and shook his head.

“You’re a total dork… you know that, right?” He teased and I nodded in agreement.

“I’m okay with that.” I answered.

Harper

After seeing #Charlie and #Teddy off, with the promise that I would try to pop by to see them soon #Jessica and I got back to work.

The afternoon wasn’t as busy as the morning, however there was still a steady stream of patients flowing through the doors. Between the appointments when I found myself sat at my desk looking a little longingly at the small wolf. I couldn’t help but replay the conversation with the Chief, his message to listen and to keep my mind open to all that was around me. It was a message #Sue and #Leah had shared with me before now too.

I leant into my desk, my hands under my chin as I was looking at the gift once again. “I should name you. But what?” I asked it.

‘Sorry, did you ask me something Harper?’ Jessica had walked in with her tablet and my phone in her hands.

Feeling a little foolish at being caught talking to a carving I felt my cheeks rush with heat, sitting back up I shook my head pushing the rim of my glasses back up my nose. “No, nothing. I was just thinking out loud. Is that my phone?” I asked as she held it out to me.

‘Yes, it is. You left it on my desk, when you rushed off to see Blackjack.’ She was smiling again as she handed it over to me. ‘And I wasn’t being nosy, you have a message from Collin. I couldn’t help seeing his name when the screen flashed.’ She was giving me an apologetic look now and shuffling her feet.

“It’s okay Jess, I trust you.” And I really did, I knew I was in good hands with her. And she was a trusted part of my team and now my life too. “Did you need me to do something?” Pointing to the tablet in her hands, I asked.

‘My head is all over the place. Yes, I don’t have the final notes for Elsa and Olaf, I know you wanted me to set up follow ups, I wasn’t sure how long those appointments needed to be?’ Taking the Tablet from her.

“Give me five and I’ll take a look over the file and add my notes for you.” Once she was gone, I unlocked my phone to check his message.

My smile grew as I found myself reading it a few times. “He thinks I’m Beautiful. And a Dork? Really? That’s how he sees himself?” I couldn’t believe it possible. Hitting reply I started to write.

To Collin [ Finding ways to make me feel better at being blind to the world around me? There is a brownie point for you in there somewhere. I have to say that two alma maters like us from the school of Dork and Nerd should become really good friends. It’s written in the rules you know. As for the nervousness? Yes, you do. I seem to lose my words when you are looking at me. And you know there is nothing wrong in a little weird, normal is over rated if you ask me. HLJ ]

Hitting send I found myself rubbing my cheek, that flush of heat was back in them. “He thinks I’m beautiful.” And this wasn’t the first time he’d said as much. But it was only now truly sinking in.

I set my phone down to the side and tapped the tablet, bringing it to life I brought up the files for Olaf and Elsa. Seeing at the small thumbnail picture of the two cats, I started to fill in their notes from their appointments today.

Collin

I was smiling again as we worked. We worked on building the booths and managed to get quite a lot done. #Brady didn't quiz me about Harper today, but I knew he wanted to know what was going on. But mostly now I was just feeling connected to her, and more at ease than before. I felt like I at least had an outline of a plan.

I was hoping that I would get the chance to call her tonight and start telling her all about our stories and legends. The day seemed to slip by a little faster than the morning and early afternoon had. It had been a while since I had a chance to check my phone. But I was hoping that she’d had a chance to reply before I got to it.

To HARPER :{{ As long as it’s the kind of nervous that makes you want to see me again. I like watching you scramble for words. It reminds me that I’m not the only one. I’m happy to hear that you think weird is good… Because there is a lot of weirdness in my life. But I have a feeling you may have figured that out already. }}

I hit send and finished a bottle of water in two big swigs. Then I went back to work, the day was coming to a close for me… But I had a feeling Harper’s was a lot longer than mine. Then on top of that, there was a chance that she could be called out at any time of the night.

While I had my phone in hand I sent #Rachel a text message to check on Nova; she replied right away, with a selfie of her and Nova sitting on the couch the dog was supposedly banned from and I laughed.

From #Rachel: {{ She’s sleeping a lot, but she’s happy and eating when she’s awake. Should I call the vet? }}

I told her it should be fine; she had her next check-up scheduled for the day after tomorrow anyway. But if she got worried to go ahead and call. Then I got back to work. As the day wore on, I was more and more shocked that the sun was still shining and dropping lower in the sky. If the clouds didn’t shift too much, we might even get a sunset tonight, and not just watching the orange glow fade away behind a screen of fog and clouds.

Harper

I moved back in my chair to stand up, stopping at the sound of my phone going off. Leaning down over the desk I saw he’d replied. My eyebrows pulled together, and I licked the corner of my lips. ‘I have a lot of weirdness in my life’. I couldn’t help but wonder what he meant by that. Thinking back over our conversations at what could have stood out. “Is he talking about his culture?” That I didn’t find weird, it was interesting, at least it was the way #Sue, #Leah and #Seth talked of it.

To COLLIN: [ I’m not sure I want to see you again. I’m going to put out a restraining order on you if you don’t stop being so kind. I mean who in their right mind would want to sit listening to my inability to string words together? HLJ ]

Hitting send I left my phone on the desk as I walked out into the reception to find #Jessica with a middle-aged man, and a Beautiful Golden Lab.

“Well, Hello. Who do we have here?” I asked smiling as I moved to set the tablet on the desk for #Jessica and bent down on my knees to look at the Labrador. I noted how she was tilting her head to the side, shaking it over and over. I held my hand out for her and she wasn’t interested at all in it. Which was a sign that she was distracted.

“It’s okay beautiful.” I patted her body and she shifted shaking her head again. I turned my attention to the owner and #Jessica. She was standing beside the man now watching me intently.

“This is Miss Coco, she is five years old, and she is here with Mr Hughes. They aren’t on the books for an appointment today, but he was just telling me that Coco hasn’t been herself for a few days now.

Standing up I smiled at the man. “It’s okay, I have time before my next appointment. Shall we go into the exam room and take a look at you Miss Coco and see what is happening?”

The man followed me into the room with coco in toe, and as I walked, I saw the she was leaning more to the left, her head tilted too. Closing the door, I lifted the five-year-old lab onto the table and started to look her over. First the normal body check, Eyes, nose, teeth, moving my hands over her body and then down her legs. Feeling for anything that should not be there.

“Have you noticed that Coco is leaning more to one side?” I asked Mr Hughes.

‘Yes, she is bumping into things too. I was worried it could be her eyes?’ He was fidgeting, watching me intently, rubbing the back of Coco’s head and I saw the dog shift away from the touch.

“How long as she been like this?” I asked, Moving my attention to her ears.

‘I would think this is day four. It was my girlfriend who noticed the change in Coco. I work and by the time I am home she is always excited to see me. But not the last few days.’

I acknowledged that I had heard him and then I saw it. There was a waxy, reddish-brown discharge in the dogs left ear. Taking out my otoscope, I set to looking inside both of Coco’s ears.

“I see the issue.” I told the man. “Poor Miss Coco has what we call otitis externa. Which is an outer ear infection.” Mr Hughes started again to fidget where he stood.

‘How? I mean we really do look after her so well.’ It was as if he thought I would blame him for it.

“It’s okay Mr Hughes. This can be caused due to several issues. It can be a result of allergies, mites, polyps, overproduction of ear wax, excessive bathing, or swimming, which can leave too much moisture in the ears. It’s a good thing you brought her in today.” I was touching her ear and it was warm to the touch. “Here feel her ears. Can you feel the difference?”

He did as I asked. ‘Oh, yes the left ear is a lot warmer.’ I smiled and told Coco how good she was being.

“Yes, that’s a sign, also this discharge too.” Showing it to him. Leaning into Coco, I took a sniff of her ear. “And the smell in this ear too. I would say it’s a fruity odour?” Moving back to allow Mr Hughes to smell, and he made a face.

‘How did I miss all of this?’ He was kissing Coco’s head and then patting her back softly again.

“It’s okay, if you don’t know what to look for…. It is so hard to know what to 𝙡𝙤𝙤𝙠 𝙛𝙤𝙧!” I smiled trying to make it light. I couldn’t and wouldn’t blame him for such a thing.

“However, because problems like these can be extremely painful, there's no reason to let Miss Coco suffer needlessly.” Patting Coco’s side again.

“Knowing the signs and symptoms of ear problems, and how to prevent them, is the next step. For now. Let’s treat her with some antibiotic as well as an antifungal lotion. I will give you an ear-cleaning solution too. Which we will start with right now.”

I moved to update the tablet with what I needed, setting to work to clean Coco’s ears out, applying the lotion and showing Mr Hughes how it was to be done at home. #Jessica knocked on the door with a small tray bringing in the injection with the first set of antibiotics and some pain relief. With the rest of Coco’s antibiotic in tablet form for them to take home.

“There we go. You are such a good girl beautiful. Letting me do all that when you are feeling so terrible.” I kissed her head. “I am giving you one week on the antibiotics, cleaning of the ear every day. If daddy feels you aren’t showing any improvements, we will see you back here in five days.”

Collin

I laughed at her message and shook my head. I replied right away, she was too cute sometimes.

To HARPER: {{ See, now I’m questioning your membership to the nerd club. Because most people would wait until after their F-words were put together, to reveal that. Also, I never claimed to be in my right mind... Maybe that’s why it gives me butterflies when you scramble for the right words. If that’s true, then I don’t want to be in my right mind. I’m much happier this way. }}

I hit send before I could over analyse the message. #Brady looked at me and shook his head. ‘You seem to be in a better mood.’ He said but he didn’t actually ask. I nodded, stuffed my phone into my back pocket and got back to work.

“I’ve made a few decisions.” I admitted. “I’m going to take your advice.” I didn’t add that I was also taking Billy’s and the girls, too. I’d let him have his shining moment. There was part of me that wondered if I should talk to #Leah but, she tried her best to keep out of our personal lives. I didn’t think she’d tell me to get lost… not when Harper was her brother’s imprints best friend; even if she wanted to. Wow… That was a mouthful. It was crazy to think of it.

How different would things have been if I met Harper on that trip too? It didn’t matter. This was the time the Spirits chose for us.

‘It’s about time.’ He teased and started hammering the nails into the structure of the booth. ‘I give great advice.’

I actually missed the nail I was about to hit and slammed it into my thumb. “Fuck!!” I pulled my hand back quickly. The Bosses head popped up from behind the skeletal structure of the counter.

‘What happened?’ he asked.

“Splinter!” I called out and laughed. I couldn’t tell him the truth… it would heal far too fast. #Brady was in stitches. My thumb throbbed and started to swell a little, but in a few hours, it would be fine.

“Good advice?” I shook my head, pulled on a pair of gloves to hide the so-called injury and kept working. The pain was ebbing already. “Wasn’t it you that set me up with #Jo?” I quirked a brow at him and his face flushed.

‘No!’ He lied, smirking a little. ‘You sure that wasn’t Paul? That doesn’t seem like something I would do at all.”

I shook my head and laughed, muttering “Asshole.” To him under my breath but I was smiling, nothing that happened between her and I was his fault, or anyone’s but hers and maybe a little bit mine.

Harper

“Don’t worry Miss Coco, you will feel right as rain very soon.” I gave her a rub on her back. “Oh, and Mr Hughes, just no ear rubs for a few days. Coco will be a little sensitive until the inflammation goes down.”

I walked them out to the reception where we were greeted by the smiling face of #Jessica, she stood and held her hand out for me to place the tablet on it. ‘Follow up in 5 days?’ She asked and I nod my head in agreement. Then looked towards Mr Hughes again.

“If you feel Coco is fine and you don’t wish to see me, just call us and cancel, but it’s best to have a date on the books just in case. Also, please if there are any questions or worries, Jess here will make sure you have my number. Day or night, call.” He smiled shaking my hand and thanked me for my help. “I’ll leave you in the capable hands of Jessica here.” Leaning down I smiled at the Golden Lab. “You take care of yourself, and it’s okay not to feel great all the time. However, we will have you better in no time beautiful.”

Standing up I left to go back into the exam room to tidy up, it was coming to the end of the day and I knew it would help #Jessica with the close up of the practice. Remembering that my phone pinged before, I took it out. Smiling as I read what he’d sent me this time, leaning over the table with my back to the open door.

“I mean, that’s just rude.” Laughing, then shifting my feet, I pushed my glasses up my nose. “And I give him Butterflies?” What was one to say to such a declaration? Licking the corner of my lip I started to write out my reply.

[ Questioning my life time membership to the Nerd Club? How dare you Sir! This calls for a Duel at Sunrise! This is me slapping my virtual glove at you as my challenge. Also, Nerds don’t really think of life in such a selfish way. We Nerds are happy to give, and we never wait to see what it is we will gain if anything at all. Do I really give you butterflies? Because you know that means there is a shortage of blood, and oxygen, to your gut. So, that is your stomach's own sensory nerves letting you know it's not happy with the situation. You should get that seen too. HLJ ]

But before I could hit send the phone was snatched from my hands. ‘By the holy spirits Harper! No! Just No! The man is telling you he gives you butterflies, and you are telling him to go see the doctor?’ #Jessica jumped up onto the exam table and was kicking her legs and banging her head with the palm of her hand. ‘Haven’t you flirted with a guy before? Sexting? A little flirty, flirty? This will not do.’ She was pointing to the screen of my phone.

I stood up my eyebrows pulled together, and I was in a little shock and a lot of surprise. '𝙛𝙡𝙞𝙧𝙩𝙮,𝙛𝙡𝙞𝙧𝙩𝙮?' what was that? and '𝙎𝙚𝙭𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜'? Was she was real?

“Jessica Clearwater!—” I exclaimed.

She lifted her finger reading my reply. ‘I like the first part. But this last part has to go.’ She was looking at me now. ‘Does he give you butterflies? When you see his name, or hear his voice, or think of him?’ She asked with her wide smile on her face.

“Uhm. Yes. I guess. But–”. It was all too soon for this wasn’t it? How was I to explain to #Jessica that there was this pull in my chest when I thought of him, when we spoke, I wanted to keep the time from running away. That last night had seemed to fly right by, and it was nothing more than a text conversation, in which it seems like things had gone from two people drinking hot chocolate together, to so much more.

She shook her hand at me. ‘There are no buts Harper. Trust me.’ She got to typing.

To COLLIN: [ Questioning my life time membership to the Nerd Club? How dare you Sir! This calls for a Duel at Sunrise! This is me slapping my virtual glove at you as my challenge. Also, Nerds don’t really think of life in such a selfish way. We Nerds are happy to give, and we never wait to see what it is we will gain if anything at all. Do I really give you butterflies? Because you give me the same sensations too. HLJ ]

‘There you go, hit send if you like what you see, or you can change it. But No sending him to the doctors.’ The phones in the practice started to ring, making #Jessica jump down off the table, handing me the phone. I read it and laughed; the kid had a point. I hit send.

‘Call on line one Harper. It is Rachel Lahote, she’s the Chiefs daughter.’ #Jessica called out from her desk, making me wonder why the Chiefs daughter would be calling me, and today of all days? I moved around to the phone in the exam room and picked up the flashing line.

“Hello Mrs Lahote, this is Harper Jenkins. How may I help you?”

There seems to be a little kerfuffle on the other side of the line before I hear the soft voice to the woman. ‘Hi there Harper. I mean Doctor Jenkins. Pleas my name is Rachel.’ My lips curled up into a smile. She was a little nervous sounding, or was I mistaken.

“Yes, Hello Rachel. What can I do you for?” I leant back into the table, resting my bottom on top of it with my arms crossed a little.

‘Oh, yes, reason for calling. So, Paul and I are looking after Nova today.—’ Hearing baby girls name I stood up, my eyebrows pulled together. ‘—I don’t know if I’m over reacting, or it there is something wrong.’ I felt that hit of adrenaline at hearing people say they aren’t sure. Nine out of ten times, our gut feeling was mostly correct.

“What’s going on? Are you able to give me a little detail please?” I was moving to the draws and the cupboard behind me, starting to put a kit together to throw into my travel bag so that I could hit the road if need be.

‘Well, she’s normally so playful and would eat me out of house and home. But today, she doesn’t want to play, she has eaten but not as much as she would do normally. She’s just laying there not really doing anything.’

I could hear the voice of a man in the background. ‘She’s not chasing me. She loves chasing me.’

“Rachel don’t worry we have this. You did the right thing by calling. Now I’m happy to come to you and see Nova for myself if you would like?” I was already putting a few things in my bag as I spoke.

‘Oh, well. We are here. I mean we are just parked up outside your practice in the hopes that you may have time—’ Her voice changed to sounding apologetic.

“Absolutely. Please come on in. I’d be happy to take a look for myself.” I set the phone down, calling out to #Jessica to let her know that Nova was outside and on her way in. I cleaned and reset the exam room and at the sound of the practice door opening I rushed out wanting to see the baby girl and how she was doing.

Collin

I had felt my phone buzz in my pocket, but we were on a roll getting the site cleaned and locked up; so I made myself ignore it until we were done. Before we left #Brady and I headed into the kitchen just to be nosey. Almost everything was covered down with plastic still, there were rows of ovens and stoves and two huge fridges. We noticed that the walk-in freezer was tiny. “I guess that means when they say the fish is fresh on the menu, they really mean it.” I laughed and #Brady just shrugged.

“Once it’s deep-fried and covered in ketchup, who cares?” He teased. I shook my head at him.

“You really need to broaden your horizons when it comes to food!” I laughed and we headed outside. I felt the coolness in the air, even though it didn’t affect me at all.

“Hey, I eat whatever you hand me… even all that health crap.” He narrowed his eyes at me.

“Health crap?” I mocked. “Really? You love my cooking… and there’s nothing wrong with the occasional vegetable, #Brady.” I wasn’t a fussy eater. I was fond of junk food like any other Spirit Warrior, but there were certain things I liked to cook more than others and most of them would fall into a 𝙝𝙚𝙖𝙡𝙩𝙝 𝙛𝙤𝙤𝙙 category, but I ate it because I liked it. Judging by how the guys all ate; a balanced diet was not necessary for us. I was pretty sure #Quil and #Embry lived on TV dinners, pizza and Doritos and they seemed fine.

After the Boss and Luke left, I pulled out my phone. There was a message from Harper but the one above it on my lock screen from Rachel and the preview that read. “Don’t freak out..” is what caught my attention.

From Rachel: {{ Don’t freak out.. Taking Nova to the vet, she just doesn’t seem like herself. I’ll call as soon as we get her seen. }}

“Shit!” I muttered. #Brady’s head shot up and he looked over my shoulder, reading semi out loud.

“I’m sure it’s fine.” He read out the time Rachel sent the text. “I bet she’s there right now. Let’s get over there. Go on, I’ll follow you.”

I didn’t really pay attention, but he nudged me towards my truck and I just nodded and climbed in. “I’m sure it's fine.” I wasn’t even convincing myself.

“Of course, it is. Harper will fix whatever is wrong, if there’s even anything wrong to start with, now go. I’ll be right behind you.” He reassured me.

I pulled out and made my way to the practice as fast as I could without barrelling through the village.

Harper

‘Hi Jess, how are you my dear? Dr Jenkins is expecting us.’ I stopped just outside of the exam room watching the two exchanging a hug.

Rachel was a petite woman, her skin almond and her shoulder length hair a dark brown. She had a kind look to her face, with her big eyes which reminded me of her father. But that was it. If I were to guess, I’d say the rest of her was on her mother.

‘Hi Rachel, Paul. Come on in. Yes, she is waiting for you—’ #Jessica looked back into the practice and saw me stood watching them. But it was Nova who I was really wanting to see. Watching the pets entering was a good indication of what could be happening with them.

‘—Oh. Well, here she is.’ #Jessica was holding the door open as all the eyes turned to me, that was when I saw him next.

A tall man built strong full of muscles. The way in which he held Nova in his arms as he carried her into the practice was like me lifting a can of soda. His skin was of a darker almond colouring, with deep set dark eyes, his forehead crested in worry, and his hair jet black and cut short.

He gave me that warm feeling of trust and safety that I felt around #Seth, #Damian and now Collin, and I couldn’t explain why. I’d not even said two words to him. The men of this Reservation really had a vibe about them that was 𝙢𝙤𝙧𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙣.

There was an air about them, it was the same one I felt around #Seth and #Leah all the time. When she put her arm around my shoulder the night of my father’s funeral, it was an instant release of sadness. A calm after the storm. A sensation and somehow the knowledge that I was going to survive. It was this very same feeling I was living now. My feet were planted to the floor, but there was that pull again. It wasn’t the same as when I saw Collin, it was similar and yet different all at the same time.

The man stood in the door; his eyes found me before they settled on anything else. His lips curled up on the sides, but there was sadness in them too. When I looked to the woman, she stood playing with her shoulder length hair. Nerves and uncertainty underlining her attempt to smile at me.

‘Doc? This is Rachel and her husband Paul.’ #Jessica prompted me as my eyes moved from the woman to the man and back again.

“I’m sorry, yes. Uhm.” I was lost for my words, pulling myself together. “Would you mind setting Nova down where you are?” I didn’t move any closer to them at all.

The man did as I asked after looking at #Rachel, and she squeezed his arm. ‘It’s okay Paul.’

Leaning down on my knees I watched Nova, her stomach had grown since we last saw her. She was a little slow, and a little unsure. But I put that down to the ride here and being carried maybe? When her feet touched the ground #Jessica closed the door so that she wouldn’t run outside.

“Hi Baby girl. Did you miss me? Come? Come Nova!” I called out to her, watching her stretch her body out on her front paws and then her tail started to wag the moment she saw me. She pushed down into the ground, readying herself to pounce on me, as I pulled my shoulders in to make myself smaller. “Come baby girl. Come.”

Out of my peripheral vision, I could see the two giving the other a look, and then #Rachel smacked his arm to stop him from saying whatever it was he was going to say. ‘What? She calls Nova baby girl just like the pu— Like Collin..’ He said to her in a low voice, but the deepness of it rang through the waiting area.

Nova barked playfully, and then slowly ran over into my arms. “That’s a girl. Look at you. Baby girl is looking, so. So Well! Yes, you are..” I tumbled to the ground with her rolling over me, licking my face and pouncing back and forward into me.

‘I don’t know what is happening, we couldn’t get her to sit up at home.’ #Rachel was saying to #Jessica.

‘Don’t worry, this is how Doctor Jenkins assess, to see how they are really doing. Nova is in good hands.’ #Jessica was stage whispering. But the man ( Paul ). He was watching closely with his arms crossed over his chest.

I could tell Nova’s energy levels were down, and there was this lethargic vibe to her movements. But this now, the playfulness, the teasing me the way she was. I used my hands to pull myself up onto my knees, tapping my hands on the floor to see if she followed and pounced again and she did.

“Good girl. That’s such a good girl.” I rubbed my face into her neck and gave her a hug. Before standing up to smile at the two. “She is doing well, but why don’t you come on into the exam room and we can have a once over.” Taking the few steps up to them I held my hand out and #Rachel pulled me into a hug, taking me off guard. “Uhm. Okay.”

I looked towards the man who was really smiling now. “Yeah, my wife is a hugger.” He looked a little amused now, but that worry was still there.

‘And I’m not ashamed of it. But I need Nova to be okay. Collin would be heartbroken if anything happened to her, or the puppies.’ I pulled back to look down at her, half smiling.

‘Oh, don’t worry Rach, you did the right thing. Doctor Jenkins will give her a full check-up.’ #Jessica had taken a hold of Nova and was walking her into the exam room.

“Let’s go in and see what we can find?” Both #Rachel and #Paul followed behind me into the exam room.

I was about to pick Nova up to set her on to the table. But #Paul moved around us and gently lifted for me.

“Jessica, Nova is due her check-up in a couple of days?” She picked up the tablet and tapped onto it as I started my examination of Nova.

‘Two days, she’s due her next ultrasound and her pregnancy check ups’ #Jessica came to stand beside me.

My hands moved over Nova’s body. “That’s such a good girl. It’s going to be fine.” I told her. I moved my hands over her body and then too her vitals. “Jess, why don’t you roll the ultrasound into here so that we don’t have to move Nova, let’s check on the three puppies right now.” Looking to Rachel and Paul. “Have you noticed any discharge coming from Nova? Has she been out today?” I moved to check her heart beat was a little slow.

‘She went for a walk with Collin this morning, they go to the beach. I know because my living room is full of sand.’ Paul nudged her and she corrected herself. But #Paul was the next to talk.

‘She went in the garden too, but I didn’t see anything like discharge’ I nodded my head, rubbing Nova behind her ear.

“You are doing so well baby girl.” Looking back to the two. “Her nose was a little dry, which isn’t the best sign and could mean she is a little dehydrated. But that isn’t anything to worry about. Like I told Collin, Nova is far too young to be carrying puppies, so these things are likely to occur. All in all, her vitals aren’t worrying. She is lethargic and not her puppy self, but her body is taking care of three others inside.”

Giving them a smile, as #Jessica came back rolling the ultrasound into the room. #Paul moved to put his arm around his wife and kiss her head. ‘See, nothing to worry about.’ I moved my gaze to look away, it felt as if I was intruding on a private moment with the two of them.

“Okay Baby girl, lay down..” I tapped the table and showed her what I wanted. “Let’s have a look at your puppies and make sure they are fine, shall we?” Nova caught my face and licked me, making #Rachel and #Jessica giggle, and #Paul laugh.

‘I think she likes you Doc.’ He said.

I smiled looking up to him. “Well, it’s a good thing because I really like her too.” I got myself set with the gel with #Jessica’s help, then moved to finding the three puppies in her tummy.

Collin

It didn’t take long before I pulled up outside the clinic. I was suddenly hyper-aware of the fact that I hadn’t even read Harper’s text fully, but Nova was in there and I wasn’t sure if she was okay or not. And Harper too, I spotted her car, and I couldn’t help but smile. How had I missed that before? I Climbed out, #Paul’s truck was parked on the far side of Harper’s bug. I let myself in but there was no one in the reception area.

I wasn’t sure if it was okay to let myself into the exam room or not. Then I heard #Paul say, ‘𝐼 𝓉𝒽𝒾𝓃𝓀 𝓈𝒽𝑒 𝓁𝒾𝓀𝑒𝓈 𝓎𝑜𝓊 𝒟𝑜𝒸.’ followed by Harper’s reply, and my heart started to pound just at the sound of her voice.

I heard #Paul clear his throat; he would have heard me come in. ‘I’m gonna step outside and text Collin. Okay?’

I heard #Rachel give a soft hum of acknowledgement. I could hear the worry in just that little sound and it didn’t fill me with relief. #Paul came outside with his phone in his hand, keeping up his ruse. ‘Oh! Kid, you’re just in time. Nova’s with the doc. C’mon.’ He nodded for me to join them. All for the sake of the humans of course, but I appreciated it. Even though I wished he hadn’t called me kid. I walked into the exam room ahead of him and saw Nova on the table with Jess and Harper looking after her. Her tail was batting against the table and she lifted her head up when she saw me.

#Jess gently lay her back down. My eyes settled on Harper and my stomach filled with rioting butterflies again. I moved over to the table brushing #Rachel’s arm as I passed her, trying to tell her everything was fine and she did the right thing, without saying a word. “Hey, baby-girl.” I smile and settled my hand on Nova’s side. “I’m sorry I’m late. Are you being a good girl?” I smiled at the dog first and then Harper.

“Hey, Nerd.” I whispered to her, still smiling.

‘Sorry, Collin… she just wasn’t herself…’ #Rachel started, but I interrupted her.

“Hey, Rach. You made the right call, really. I knew you wouldn’t take any risks if you were worried, that’s why I asked you to look after her.” I glanced over my shoulder and gave my cousin a reassuring smile. #Paul had wrapped his arms around her from behind and pressed a kiss to her shoulder. This wasn’t something I hadn’t witnessed semi-regularly; #Jess was probably used to it too. But I glanced at Harper wondering if she was used to seeing public displays of affection like that.

Harper

My attention moved to #Paul as he excused himself and I couldn’t help but think of Collin. If he knew Nova was here, I was sure he would be worried about her and her puppies. But with #Paul going to update him I would hope it may help to ease his apprehension maybe.

“Okay, let’s see how your babies are doing Nova?” Smiling down at her, with #Rachel stood close by. “Rachel it’s okay if you want to come in closer. Trust me, it’s okay.” She shifted on her feet and I didn’t push. She was worried I could tell more so now.

Placing my hand low below Nova’s tummy I took each movement nice and slow, making sure she wouldn’t be scared or startled, and she would know where I would always be working. I placed the transducer probe in the correct areas. It was easier now to feel the puppies, as they were growing, once I was sure I moved my glance to the monitor. #Jessica helped to calm Nova on the table. “I know baby girl, not as comfortable as the other table, but we don’t want to move you too much.”

There were sounds coming from outside, but I kept my attention on the screen checking the sizes of the puppies and their placement. My eyebrows pulled together, at the change in the atmosphere in the room. #Jessica placed a hand on my arm, and I turned to see Collin walking into the exam room.

My cheeks burned with a rush of heat when he came to stand on the other side of the table, taking over from #Jessica to look after Nova now. I couldn’t help but smile at the new nickname he’d also started to use.

“Hey Dork.” I whispered back, and then told myself off. That wasn’t professional at all. What was I thinking? What would #Rachel and #Paul think of me for talking to him like that?

I couldn’t explain the leap in my stomach and the flitter in my heart as I watched him smile and tell #Rachel she did the right thing. He was trying to ease her tension, and yet there was worry in his eyes rightfully so, and I could understand why.

“Rachel, really you did the correct thing, it’s always better to be safe, but truly Nova is fine as are the puppies. She is a little dehydrated. And there is nothing to worry about. She is going through some major changes, her body is adjusting and adapting.”

Again, I saw how #Paul moved into his wife. His arms moved around her in a protective way. A flash of the nights in my living room came to mind, when #Seth would move to sit behind #Kenz and pull her back into his chest and engulf her in his strong arms. She would look so at home there, just as #Rachel did now. I moved my gaze away from the two once again, not wanting to intrude on their intimate moment.

Out of the side of my eye, I saw movement and I looked to find another tall well-built man hovering outside of the door, trying to look in and trying to hide too?

“Well, baby girl. One thing I know now is that you have a lot of people who love you and are worried about you.” #Jessica had followed my gaze and moved to open the door for the man to come in. The three men towered over us in the small room.

I turned my attention back to Nova, and then the monitor. “Let’s have a listen to their hearts?” I asked her, tapping the sound button so that Nova could hear the three small fast beats of her three puppy’s hearts.

‘Those are the puppies?’ #Rachel was still in her husband’s arms. ‘Oh my, those are the puppies!’ Her eyes glassed over, and I smiled, this was a reaction I’d seen so often.

“They are three healthy little puppies; baby girl is doing so well in looking after her babies.” I looked at Collin now as I said the following. “She is okay, her babies are okay.” Trying to reassure him.

Collin

I saw the flush of pink in Harper’s cheeks as I leaned over Nova, it didn’t stop there, and the pink deepened as the blood pooled in her cheeks. The back of my neck flared with heat and it rushed up to my ears, I knew they would be burning red any second now.

I heard #Paul chuckle when she called me a Dork, but it made me smile. I could hear her heart skipping out of time and mine quickened. I saw #Brady step into the doorway now too. Harper was going to think we were crazy; four people showing up for one dog. But then she spoke… was there no end to this woman’s open heartedness? I cleared my throat. “Harper… um… That’s Brady. My best friend… we uh… we just came from work.”

When I said the words, I looked down at myself. I was a mess… beyond the norm for me after work. Dusty, black smudges on my hands and clothes and maybe even my face for all I knew. The swelling on my thumb was long gone at least. The sound of the puppy’s hearts filled the room; the digital quality was the only thing that told them apart from all the raised heartbeats in the room. #Paul seemed to be the only one immune, though his eyes had widened, and he was leaning closer.

I was smiling, I leaned down to kiss Nova’s snout and whispered. “Good job, baby-mama.” Then I chuckled and I looked up at Harper. “Thank you… so much.”

I had to turn to #Rachel next she had been so concerned almost like it was her fault. I kissed her cheek.

“Thanks for bringing her in, cousin. Better safe than sorry when it comes to these little ones.”

‘Hey!’ #Paul glared, but not seriously. ‘Don’t kiss your dog and then my wife!’ #Rachel laughed and freed herself from Paul to kiss the top of Nova’s head. #Brady nodded to #Paul; he still looked fascinated by the ultrasound. ‘C’mon let’s wait outside and leave the granddad to sort out the rest with the pros. It’s crowded in here.’

He was a good friend; I gave him a smile and the compulsory chin bob of the 𝘽𝙍𝙊 𝘾𝙊𝘿𝙀. The other two agreed and headed out of the exam room. #Brady loitered in the doorway for a second. ‘It was nice to meet you Doc… Hopefully, we can have a proper introduction soon.’ He tipped his hat to her even though he wasn’t wearing one. I sighed and shook my head as he left. Then it was Just #Jess, Harper and I. And Nova, of course.

“Sorry… he’s weird. But he’s a good guy.” I whispered knowing he would hear.

Harper

I shifted to stand up straight, wishing my hands weren’t full as Collin introduced me to #Brady. The Best friend.

I should have guessed it. It wasn’t until he mentioned coming from work did, I see the evidence of it all. Yet again he’d walked into the practice and I’d all but missed what he was wearing or doing. It was his eyes, that smile. I was drawn into him without even knowing that it was happening. I could feel the heat from my cheeks radiating, and now I wished I had left my hair down. Giving #Brady a smile with a soft “Hello.” Before they all started to speak to one another. And I backed away, wiping my hands, and pushing the rim of my glasses up my nose.

#Jessica stepped around to help me clean up the ultrasound and Nova’s tummy so that the baby girl could sit up. “You are doing so well.” I whispered to her, not wanting to disturb their conversation.

‘How can I help Harper?’ #Jessica asked and I started to tell her what I needed from her. Gathering the parts which needed to be cleaned I stepped back as the others started to leave.

“It was lovely to meet you too Brady, and I look forward to it.” I smiled and then both #Jess and I laughed at the way #Brady tipped his invisible hat.

“So, sweet.” I whispered smiling.

‘You are calling Brady weird? Really Collin?’ #Jess teased, giving Nova a rub on her head she stepped out of the exam room to gather the things I asked her for.

“Hey, we’ve got to stop meeting like this. You’re encroaching on Nova and my bonding time here Mr Littlesea.” I teased him a little, shifting on my feet so unsure of what to do with myself. My eyes moved to him and then down to Nova who was sat up now and she bumped her snout into my chest. And I lean in and kiss the top of her head too.

“You really are doing so well.” My eyes glancing up to Collin. “She will be fine, tired. Some rest, some replacements and maybe some ice cubes for her to chew on. The puppies are all doing well. they are growing as I hoped they would be. And they look healthy. For now, I am happy.”

This was safe, this I could do. Talk about Nova and work. This I didn’t stumble on like I did everything else. #Jessica came back in and handed Collin that card she’d been printing off with the snap shot of the puppies as they looked today.

‘I thought you’d want to keep all of them?’ She gave him a sweet smile and placed the box I asked of on the side table, before leaving again. Picking the box up, I held it out towards Collin. “Here is a box of electrolyte replacement powder. If you add this to her water for the next few days, it will help her get the salts she needs. Also like I said, some pieces of ice for her to lick in the day. She can play with it and eat it. Too much water too quickly, could cause her to vomit, exacerbating her dehydration which is the last thing we want right now.”

Collin

Seeing her shyness with #Brady made me smile. She really was cute, even thinking he was 𝙨𝙬𝙚𝙚𝙩 when he was clearly an idiot. One of my favourite idiots… sure, but still. I looked up at #Jess and laughed.

“Are you disagreeing with me?” I teased her right back.

‘I guess like recognises like.’ #Jess flashed that cheeky smile of hers, as she headed out.

There really was no come back to that, I was far from 𝙣𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙖𝙡. Even if you didn’t take into account the fact that I turned into a giant wolf five nights a week… sometimes more. I laughed when Harper said I was coming between the two and their bonding.

“Well, I’m secretly hoping you two will have a lot more time to bond outside the office, Dr Jenkins.” I had no idea how the words came out without a stutter or me tripping over them.

I clamped my lips shut, my heart thudded as the embarrassment flooded through me. It was true, of course but, I had said it… in one breath! That was the shock.

“Guess that’s not so secret anymore.” I chuckled. I listened to her and nodded, watching Nova leaning into Harper for attention.

It would be a lie to say I wasn’t a little jealous. What I wouldn’t give to reach out and touch her hand again; the way I had in the diner. I knew it was pathetic, and I truly hoped I could hide that thought from the others the next time I patrolled.

“Okay… I’ll make sure and do that. Should I cut back on the walks too? Or keep her on her leash so she doesn’t run too much? She seems to be going from full of energy to… well –“ I chuckled and rubbed Nova’s head. “Scaring the life out of my cousin.” I smiled at #Jessica when she came in with the picture and I took it. The blobs were a lot more puppy-shaped now.

“Wow.” I grinned. “They are growing so fast!” The difference between this one and the last one was noticeable. I leaned on the edge of the table and wrapped my arm around Nova rubbing her belly.

“No wonder you’re so tired baby-girl. All your energy is going into these little things.” I looked back up the Harper and my heart pounded against my ribs for a moment, before it settled again; into a still elevated pace.

I heard #Paul out in the reception whispering. ‘I know that feeling.’ Even he couldn’t mock me about that. I heard his heart speed up every time Rachel walked into a room, no matter how many years passed. Even the mornings when she still had the previous night’s makeup smudged under her eyes.

Harper

#Jessica left, and the door was ajar, out my peripheral vision I could see both #Brady and #Paul walking back and forth trying to look into the room, the way they attempted to make it seen as natural as they possibly could. It made me smile and I laughed softly, shaking my head a little. We had another audience, this time it was his side and people who cared and worried for him. #Rachels arms came out of nowhere, she tugged the two men shirts, pulling them out of my sightline and if I had to guess, back into the waiting room.

My heartbeat playing hard in my chest. I was so grateful there was no chance anybody could hear it, how embarrassing would that have been.

His comment made me glance back to him. That smile and the crinkle in the side of his eyes were all I noticed most of the time, now was no different. The fact that I felt like I knew him so much better than the last time we met, was a little confusing and a little relief washed over me too. I should be able to speak with him without looking a fool. Right? Blinking my eyes at how Collin had said those words with such confidence. Nova’s tongue found my cheek and she licked me, bringing me back to the now and her. My eyes flickered down to her and I smiled.

“I see you are agreeing with your dad?” Then I looked back up towards him. “I thought you said.. you were unable to.. you know… get your words out around me.” I stumbled a little. Non-work talks with him, then I was back to babbling and telling myself off for it. Closing my eyes, the flash of heat burning in my cheeks making me drop my face into Nova’s fur. “What I meant to say, is I am looking forward to spoiling you and not as your doctor.”

Moving forward to look at the picture of the three puppies. The way Collin was so proud of his baby warmed my heart in a different way. This was the fun part of the job. Seeing the happiness and being the bearer of good news. “They are, look at the shape they are taking, and Nova is the one doing that all inside of her. She’s incredible.” She really was doing so well. Sure, I still had the worry there, but I pushed it back away. For now, Nova was doing everything she needed to.

Shaking my head to Collin’s question about the walks. “Maybe hold off on anything too long or hard for her. No running a marathon. Other than that, let our baby girl here guide you when it comes to her exercise. I’d never say to stop her walks completely, she needs to keep up her movement. But some days it may be slow and short walks, and other days she maybe full of energy to burn.”

Collin

I laughed, the blush tingeing my ears red was spreading into my cheeks now too, as she teased me about me actually getting a line out. Nova rescued me again by being adorable. I smiled watching them both, she really had found her life’s true purpose; I couldn’t imagine her finding a career she was better suited to than this. “I wouldn’t get too used to it. I’m almost certain it was a fluke.” I muttered and rubbed the back of my neck.

She hid her blushing cheeks by snuggling into Nova and it was just further confirmation that she was perfect to me. The way she talked to her like she might talk back. It was endearing. “I’d be careful making this one promises.” I chuckled. “She’s very high maintenance, only the best for this baby-girl.” I ran my hand down her back a few times. I could hear her heart race and it should have boosted my confidence but made me more nervous.

When she leaned in to look at the picture, my heart doubled its paced too. “Incredible.” I repeated, my eyes flit between Nova and Harper. They both were, Nova was creating three little lives and Harper was saving them and healing pain every day. I heard what she said about walking her, I had a feeling it wasn’t too far off before Nova began to slow down altogether, but at least I knew I could come to her if I was worried.

I could still hear the guys outside; I had hoped they would head home but #Rachel probably wanted to make sure that Nova was okay. “We should probably get out of your way and let you get to all the others that need your time.”

I stood back up on my own two feet and lifted Nova, setting her down on the floor. I kissed her head before I stood back up.

“But… um… if you do, you know, get finished and have free time, I was going to head down to the beach, later… We rarely get a cloudless or mostly cloudless sunset around here.” I tripped over the words and hear #Brady quietly clear his throat out front. Damn… Was that too much? Asking a woman, you had one coffee with to watch a sunset.

My heart thundered now. When I thought about it like that then it really sounded like too much.

Harper

When I looked up to him, I saw the blush in his cheek. His almond skin had a touch of red and pink in it all at the same time. I noted how I was staring at the way his hand moved to his neck and he rubbed it. I licked the side of my lips and patted Nova’s head, making myself look at her. He was blushing too? Was there anything about this man that didn’t draw me into him? And I had to ask myself again, how was this all possible? After meeting somebody twice, one text conversation. My heart was pulling towards him without a single worry or question? How? Why? When did this become something, I allowed myself to feel? Out of all my friends I was meant to be the sensible one. This was 𝙉𝙤𝙩 how sensible people did things.

“Even a candle flame gives one large flicker before it goes out.” The words out of my lips before I knew they were. Blinking my eyes trying to understand why I’d said such a thing to him? “Uhm… Well… My dad says it all the time, and I never really understood the meaning of it.” I shrugged my shoulders. “A fluke or a bout of confidence whatever the reason, it worked. Which is the main thing.”

When I looked up to him, I saw just how close to him I had leant and corrected myself. Taking a couple of steps back I felt the rush of blood making its way to my cheeks once again. What was wrong with me? This was nor the time, nor the place. ‘Pull it together Harper Lee’ I chastised myself.

“I refused to believe you. Our Miss Nova cannot be high maintenance, have you seen her beautiful brown eyes? These eyes command attention and love, no questions asked.”

Nodding my head at him saying it was time for them to go, I moved around the table now and pulled the door open completely. I found myself staring at him again, He lifted Nova off the table and set her down. But it was the way he kissed her head, giving her the right amount of attention that ensured she knew that he was right here with her every step of the way.

“Sorry?” I asked and then tried to replay his question, I was sure I heard it, but I was lost in Nova’s calming eyes. It clicked into place. He was asking me again today to join him and Nova on a walk? I licked the corner of my lips. How many times had I rain checked on him now? “Uhm… Down the beach? This evening?... Uhm….” I shifted on my feet and nodded my head finally. “Sure, I’d love to.” I was about to say, ‘If you are sure I’m not intruding.’ But he had made it clear to me that I wasn’t.

I’d only managed to take a couple of steps out of the room before I heard #Jessica’s voice.

‘Collin! I’ve moved Nova’s appointment from two days’ time to three weeks. Doctor Jenkins has given your baby and her babies the once over, so you don’t have to come in again until the next check-up. Unless something doesn’t feel right with her.’

I moved to go stand to the side, and then saw #Rachel’s face and I stepped up to her. Keeping my voice low for her to hear me and hope she saw I was telling her the truth.

“You and Paul did the correct thing by coming here. Nova is fine today; her puppies are fine too. If you ever feel unhappy or unsure, you have our number and you know how to find me. Come, I will never turn you away.”

I wasn’t sure my words helped, but I stepped to the side and moved to stand next to #Jessica’s desk as Collin and Nova came out to join them in the waiting room.

Collin

I laughed a little when she quoted her father and shifted awkwardly. “Clearly a wise man. I can’t see it happening again.” I flushed. Watching her with Nova was indescribable; she had this unique look in her eyes.

She stepped back when she realised how close we were. But that was okay, I knew what was happening. I knew why I wanted to be closer to her all the time… she was in the dark. It had to be strange for her. I just hoped it wasn’t too strange. That was just another reason to start this whole process. A new plan started to form in my mind:

1. Tell her the legends.

2. Find a way to tell her they were true.

3. If she didn’t freak out tell her about imprinting

4. …..

Was she blushing? I pressed my lips together and felt my heart race even more. “Okay… well maybe it’s me and my high standards of what she deserves.” I hear #Brady snort and mutter an agreement. Then, #Rachel subtly hissed at them both to wait outside if they were going to eavesdrop. She really was a good cousin.

When she said she’d come to the beach it was like all the air was sucked out of my lungs and came rushing back in the same instant.

“Really?” I said too eagerly, my lips betraying me and stretching into a too-obvious smile.

“Um… wow. Okay. Eh… about 7:30. Its first beach, so the car park is closer than the other I was telling you about… in case the bat signal goes up. Or…”

My wolf growled ‘Dork!’

But she was always on call… It was funny! Right? Damn it! I am a dork.

I was so glad my wolf had cut off my rambling, before #Jessica came in. I picked up the box Harper had given me and made a mental note to change my calendar. Then I followed the two girls out of the room to the reception. Harper was still trying to make #Rachel feel better, she wasn’t just good with the animals she helped, she was good with the people too.

“Yeah, you did great Rachel, seriously… And I really need your help with her until the puppies come. But if it’s too stressful…”

#Rachel pouted a little and her eyes softened as she looked at me. ‘Of course, I’ll still watch her when you need me, Collin.’ she shook her head and looked at Harper and #Jess. ‘Who can say no to that face?’ She teased, nodding at me. I grinned, so did my wolf. We heard that line a lot.

Harper

He was rambling again, and it was so sweet. He was kind and funny and all the rest of it. I had to smile at his reaction to my agreeing to go to the beach with him and Nova. He looked and sounded a little surprised by my acceptance, should I have said no? Was I jumping the gun here? It was just a walk. Nothing to it. This was normal, was it normal? Of course, it was normal. I needed to stop thinking about the word 𝙉𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙖𝙡!

I shook my head free of the inner monologue that had started to take over and play with my nerves. “Now… Uhm… Why didn’t I leave some money in the budget for a… Bat signal?” I was babbling again, but to hide the fact I started tapping my chin and smiling a little too wide at him, and then I couldn’t help but laugh at the images in my mind popping up. They were of me seeing a signal in the sky and having to rush off to work.

“Oh right.. I spent it all on the Batmobile… You know the transportation is the most essential part of the job.” I said matter of factly.

‘I hate to disagree Harper, but it’s the weapons.’ #Paul jumped into the conversation, and I raised my eyebrow.

“Oh? Really?” I bit down on my lips and then spoke. “How did you come to this conclusion?” I asked the last part, a little bolder than I had been of late when I was around Collin.

‘Batman is a MAN! He needs the weapons and the gadgets to fight the bad guys.’ #Paul stood with his feet apart, and his arms crossed over his chest.

‘The Bat suit…’ #Brady and #Jessica both jumped in together and then laughed, #Brady continued. ‘Without the suit he would have been dead. Batman is nothing without his suit guys.’ He patted #Paul on his shoulder.

This was so nice to witness, the people here were easy to fall into step with. I glanced from #Rachel and Collin as she spoke about how people couldn’t say no to him. I could tell that she really cared for Collin and for Nova too. The baby girl had a family surrounding her. It wasn’t just her and Collin. And I knew this was a good thing. He would need all the help and support he could get.

#Rachel smiled at me and #Jessica moved over to hug her as they said their good byes and my next patients walked into the practice. ‘We should head out and let the ladies get back to work.’ #Rachel poked her husband and couldn’t help but smile. She was small, but I could see from the way these men reacted around her, that she was a woman who could hold her own ground.

I glanced over to Collin, giving him a smile. “19:30, First Beach, don’t be late Dork.” I kept my voice low as I bent down to rub Nova’s head.

“You take care of him. I think he is a little worried about you baby girl.” Kissing the top of her head I stood up. I could swear that #Paul and #Brady were both chuckling just at the point I spoke to Collin, and as they stepped out of the main door.

“I’ll see you both soon. Because, I hear nobody can say no to this face.” I teased Collin a little and my own cheeks went hot with a blush.

Collin

I had to smile when she joked about the bat signal. I silently goaded my wolf, I knew that was funny! I snorted a laugh when she talked about the Batmobile and clamped my hand over my mouth; like I could stuff the offending sound back down.

‘See…. Dork!’ My wolf turned and retreated to the place he hid when I embarrassed him. Or rather; us.

I watched her debate Batman, with the guys and grinned. I was about to say we all knew Ironman was the best but; sparking a DC versus Marvel debate with Paul in the room would be never-ending. He considered himself a real-life Clark Kent, but he was clearly more like the Hulk.

The others all stepped out and I lingered at the counter for a moment. I beamed a confident smile when she told me not to be late. “I’m never late.” I could say that without any issues because it was true. But I made a mental note to try and not be as early as I was for our coffee-turned-hot-chocolate date, but at least it was the beach.

Sitting in the diner and not ordering because you were waiting for someone was different; especially when everyone else there knew you.

I held my breath as I watched her lean down to give Nova even more attention. I considered offering to pick her up, but I didn’t want to come across as domineering or clingy… Even though there was this niggling urge to cling when it came to being around her. I flushed again, I couldn’t imagine anyone having an easy time telling her no, either.

But there was no way I could tell her that without turning into a blubbering mess.

“See you at seven thirty then.” I grinned too enthusiastically and headed to the door, but Nova was pulling back to stay with Harper. I laughed. “Looks like she’d rather stay here to take care of you. Hey Nova, c’mon baby-girl… it’s time to go.” Nova finally followed me, and I led her outside. I glanced back at Harper as the door swung closed.

Everyone was standing between the cars and when I walked up to them #Rachel leaned into my side, giving me a one-armed hug. ‘She’s so cute Collin… and kind. I’m so happy for you. I had hoped you’d get to be the one to introduce me to her… But…’

“You did the best thing bringing her here.” I rattled the box in my hand. “This could have escalated into something worse if she wasn’t seen for two days. Thank you.”

‘Okay, well you might as well come back to the house for dinner since we're all together anyway.’ #Rachel stepped away and headed to #Paul’s truck.

“Actually…” I looked at the guys. I had assumed they would have told her I asked Harper to the beach and she said yes, but by the smug grins I assumed they hadn’t. “I’m meeting Harper later…. So I’m gonna go home and clean up.”

‘Really? Wow! See…” #Rachel swatted #Paul’s chest. ‘I told you it was a good idea to bring her!’

‘You were the one that thought you were over—‘ #Paul started.

I cut him off with a loud cough. “Bathroom!” I muttered into the cough, reminding him he was already on thin ice from this morning and he stopped, giving me a nod. We all said goodbye and headed off in our separate ways.

Harper

‘Do you think they are talking about you?’ #Jessica stood beside me holding the tablet out for me to take. The both of us gazing out at the parking lot. ‘And wasn’t it cute how Nova didn’t want to leave?’ She was partly teasing me and partly living in the moment with me. I shook my head, and yet the way #Brady turned back right now and smiled at me, I could swear he heard #Jess, and there was that feeling which told me I could be the topic of discussion.

I took the tablet to look down at the records for my next patient. Lifting my eyes, I found myself looking over my glasses after Collin one last time. With Nova stood beside him, my eyes wondered over his clothes. I liked that I could see his work on him, it was no different to me most days. However, I was sure his work didn’t smell as bad as mine did. Then I was smiling at the way he’d turned to glance back at me as the door closed.

“Who do we have in next?” walking back into the waiting area I frowned at seeing the area empty.

‘I took Mrs Murry and Pumpkin into the exam room; you know how Pumpkin can take her time to relax and not wee on you.’ #Jess shrugged her shoulder and then laughed.

I shook my head and smiled recalling the last visit the small brown rabbit had with us and how she left a trail of wee and poo droplets all over the exam room for us to clean up.

“You are making good decisions this week Jessica.” We parted ways, she moved to go sit behind her desk and I stopped at the door of the exam room, my hand on the handle I turned back to #Jessica. “How many more patients are there tonight?

She smiled, tilting her head to the side and giggled. ‘Don’t worry, I know you hate being late. I will have you out in time for the beach and a quick stop at home to wash up and change.’

I frowned and pushed my glasses up my nose. “I need to go home?” glancing down at myself.

‘Well, if you want to walk the beach in the evening in your whites and those jeans. Not to mention you have no idea what state you will be in once Pumpkin is done with you.’

I clicked my tongue. “Okay, Good point.” Winking at her I turned the handle and stepped into the exam room. “Hello Miss Pumpkin and Mrs Murry. How may I help you both tonight?”

‘Hello Doctor Jenkins, we are here for our check-up and vaccines. Also, Pumpkin doesn’t seem to be herself right now.’ I was happy to see that Mrs Murry had removed Pumpkin from her carrier and was seated on the chair with the small brown rabbit in her hands.

“Okay, when you say not herself. What are you seeing?” Setting the tablet down to the side, I smiled seeing that #Jessica had placed the tray with the vaccines ready to go for me.

‘She doesn’t seem to be eating her food. And you know how our Pumpkin loves her food.’ The woman lifted her rabbit up to her face and was talking to the Rabbit now. ‘You haven’t been eating, have you little one. And you do love your pellet mix.’

I tapped the top of the exam table and Mrs Murry came to stand beside it and set Pumpkin down for me to examine her. Taking a hold of the rabbit I weighed her first and then I checked to see her eyes. Moving my fingers lightly down her body and then checking her feet. Pumpkin was well looked after.

“She has a great coat, and her eyes are bright. She is a little under the weight she was the last time we saw her.” I said as I checked her mouth, gums, and teeth. “Ahh…” I said looking at the teeth again.

‘What is it Doctor Jenkins, is Pumpkin going to be okay?’ concern filling her voice as I turned the rabbit for Mrs Murry to see.

“She will be fine, it’s her teeth. Do you see this.” I pointed to the growth that was biting into Pumpkins lower gums. “Her teeth are growing.”

I looked to see how long they had gotten, and they weren’t as bad as some I’d seen before.

“You see Mrs Murry; rabbit’s teeth have open roots that enable them to grow constantly. In fact, they lengthen by three to five inches each year. Since their teeth never stop growing, it’s a good thing that rabbits eat the tough foods they do. While helpful for rabbits in the wild, constantly growing teeth can be a problem for pet rabbits like Pumpkin here who is kept indoors. Most pet rabbits are fed pellets, which do not wear down the teeth like natural vegetation does. That’s why you really must supplement pellets with fresh Willow bark or sticks, even hay and other wooden chew toys. This will help Pumpkin grind her ever-growing teeth.”

I moved around to show Mrs Murry the little plaque which had started to build up too.

‘Oh my baby, I’m so sorry.. I thought I was giving her the best diet.’ Mrs Murry covered her mouth with her hand. This was a reaction I liked to see. It was a sign of a good pet parent.

“You are doing a great job; these are all things which can be managed, and we can keep on top of now.” I told her squeezing her arms seeing how worried she was becoming. My voice a lot softer now as I smiled. “Trust me, Pumpkin is healthy and happy. You are doing Great with her!”

Collin

Nova was buckled in her seat; she was nuzzling closer than normally did in the car. I rubbed her head and laughed. “Hey, baby-girl. Don’t worry, Harper gave you something to make you feel better.” As soon as I said her name, Nova tried to stick her nose out through the tiny gap where I had the window cracked just a little. I laughed.

You want to see her again already?” I smiled wide. “Me too… but we’ll see her soon, in about two hours… actually.” My heart started to pound in my chest now. This was it… this was my chance to start step one of my plan. After tonight I would be one step closer to telling her everything, one step closer to the rest of my life.

Nova seemed to settle as soon as she heard me, and people tell me that talking to her like she understands was a waste of time? I scoffed to myself. She knows enough to at least make out my tone. When we got home, I lifted Nova out of the truck and took her inside. My heart didn’t stop hammering as I mixed up a sachet of the medicine Harper gave me into Nova’s water bowl, exactly like it said to on the box. She sniffed it and then looked at me funny, cocking her head to one side.

She dipped her tongue into it and then started to drink happily. The smell must have confused her, but she clearly liked the taste. “Thank the Spirits.” I mutter to myself and flicked the oven on. I was hoping it wouldn’t be hard to get her to drink it. Tonight, was a frozen pizza night… I needed to get showered and ready to see Harper. I always had at least one in the freezer for days with unexpected occurrences. I waited until Nova was done drinking before I put her food down for her, I didn’t want to pull her away while she was drinking the solution.

After I slid the pizza into the oven, I headed to the bathroom and turned on the shower. I was already running through the stories in my head, thinking about the way mom told them and the different ways that Uncle #Billy did. I was too young to remember if Aunt #Sarah ever told them to me. I remembered telling them to my sister sometimes when she was stuck in the hospital because of me… and Mom had no one to watch her.

I scrubbed my hair and somehow managed to get all traces of the day out from under my fingernails. My heart still didn’t slow down the whole time. Shaving at this time of the evening really didn’t make any sense… but I did it and bundled wet hair into an elastic at the nape of my neck. It would dry fast with my body heat regardless. I didn’t let myself obsess over my clothes, I was going to have to play the human and wear my jacket anyway, because it would be cool on the beach and then cold once the sun went down. I pulled on my newest jeans and a plain grey t-shirt, and a pair of non-work boots.

The oven timer dinged, and I grinned. “I’m just that good!” I smirked and headed for the kitchen. I noticed Nova drank over half the bowl and finished her dinner. I gave her a long belly rub for being so good before going to get my food.

Harper

‘Go, go, go! I’ve got Mrs Murry and lock up.’ #Jessica said with her big smile in place and booming excitement.

“Jess, It’s a walk with Nova on the beach. I’ve a feeling they may cancel if she’s not up to it.” She hushed me and shooed me out of the door with my bag in hand. “Wait!” I side lined her and then walked back into my office to pick up my little wolf. “He wants to go home with me too.”

The drive home seemed to take forever for some reason. I was lucky that #Jessica was coming into herself with the practice and her role. She had all but pushed me out of the door once I was cleaned up after seeing Pumpkin. And I was happy to leave knowing that she would be able to manage any questions Mrs Murry may have had as they set up the next appointments.

Now I had to give #Jessica credit, it had been a good call for me to go home and shower before I had to go out, Pumpkin had weed on me and dropped poo all over the exam table once her vaccines were administered. This wasn’t something I was willing to put out there in the world for others to witness. Me on the other hand, this was just another day in the office.

Coming to a stop on my drive I smiled while looking down to the small wooden carving on the passenger seat.

“Well, this is us and your new home.” I told it and picked him up with my things.

As I walked towards the house, my eyes looked up to find the sun was still out; however, it was lower in the sky, I could tell that the weather was changing, and fall was starting to show itself in the air and the forest all around us. It was still nice to be done with work today before the sun was gone. It made for a good change.

Kicking my shoes off as soon as I was inside, I set the things down and shrugged out of my coat. The kitchen would have been my next stop normally, but I didn’t want to keep my working day on me for much longer. I took my wolf and set him on the box beside my bed.

“Somewhere for you to perch and watch over me.” I had to smile at seeing him here in my room. He looked perfect, like it was where he belonged without me knowing. There was that pull in my chest that hadn’t gone since I saw Collin. And It was telling me to get a move on.

Rushing into the bathroom I undressed and turned the shower on to give the water time to warm. Setting my glasses to the side, dropping my dirty clothes into my hamper, and then climbing into the tub I cleaned myself up.

I didn’t take long under the hot water, no matter how much I wanted to stay there. However, the urge not to be late was a stronger pull for me. Once I was out and wrapped into a towel, I cleaned and dried the tub, the sink and the floor before I rushed into my room. I found myself a jumper, a fresh button-down shirt, and jeans to ware. I’d only been to the beach once since I had been in town, and I recalled just how cold it had gotten on the water’s edge.

Drying my hair had taken longer than I had planned for it, but again I knew going out with wet hair would be the death of me. Pulling my hair up into a ponytail to keep it out of the way, I slipped my boots and glanced towards the little wolf. “Wish me luck?” Kissing the tip of my finger I place it on his forehead before I finally made it to the kitchen. Grabbing a banana, I peeled it open leaning on the side to check the time.

“Still have time.” Opening the fridge, grabbing some milk, I made myself a peanut butter, jelly, and banana sandwich for dinner. Setting a reminder to go to the Thriftway for some groceries. There was only so much I could do with peanut butter.

Once I was finished eating and drinking, I cleaned the kitchen up ready to be used for the next time. And then found myself checking the clock again. Licking my lips, I felt my heart. It felt like it was going to jump up and out of my chest. I placed my hands on it and whispered, “Stay calm.” Hoping that it would listen to me. I found myself smiling thinking of Collin and Nova again, and the way he was with her. It didn’t help my heart.

“Okay, still early, but..” I wasn’t going to stand around with this nervous energy building inside of me. But it was that good nervous which helped you move forward with some confidence. I knew if I left now, I would be early however I knew taking in some fresh air would do me some good.

Pulling my coat on I pushed my phone into the pocket, I left the house to drive down to First beach. It really wasn’t hard to find with the main street taking us right up to the edge of parking lot. So, I knew there was no way for me to become lost.

Collin

I moved around the kitchen eating a rolled-up slice of pizza as I made a pot of coffee and rummaged through the cupboard for a thermos... Well, ‘rummaged’ wasn't really the right word because I knew exactly where it was. I poured the coffee into the thermos and on autopilot; I started adding in the sugar before I paused to think if Harper took any in her coffee. I stopped; only having put in half the amount I normally would and grabbed another slice of pizza.

I had to step over Nova who was cooling herself on the tile in the kitchen - her favourite spot was right in front of the door, of course - to get to my bedroom. I grabbed a heavy blanket from the back of the closet. It would just be rude to have someone as amazing as Harper sitting on damp sand after a long day saving lives, or at the very least easing pain; probably a little of both.

"You know, it's very possible she'll get a call and won't be able to make it." I said to Nova, who just cocked her head at me. "You can't be too disappointed. She has a particularly important job." At this, she yipped at me. We both knew that was more for my benefit than hers.

I checked my phone and I was still on time, I had told her I was never late. I really wanted to prove myself right. I grabbed Nova's leash and rolled up the last slice of pizza. I was just about to take it to the car with me to eat on the drive until I had a thought and dropped it back onto the plate. I popped it into the fridge and headed back to the bathroom to brush my teeth 𝙖𝙜𝙖𝙞𝙣.

Then I grabbed the flask and the blanket and took Nova back to the truck. The drive was one I knew inside out but then again, there really wasn't any part of La Push I didn't know well. My eyes kept flicking to the dash clock; counting down how long it would take for me to get there. I would be a few minutes early. But not too early either. There was still nothing on my phone to say that she'd been unexpectedly called away, I would understand if she did but, it would be a lie to say I wouldn't be disappointed if she was. I was taking it as a sign that The Spirits really were on my side.

The First Beach car park wasn't so much a car park as it was a flat gravelled area that everyone parked in, but the clock just turned to seven twenty-eight when I heard the familiar crunch of the gravel beneath the tires. Nova was wagging her tail and looking out the window. She knew where we were, but I didn't think I would be letting her run free tonight. It was probably best for her to take it easy.

I glanced around for Harper's car only to spot it just seconds later, it looked like she had just beaten me here. I smiled. "I told you, she’d make it!" I smirked at the very confused dog. "You're so cynical sometimes." I chuckled, pulling up next to her and unbuckling both Nova and me. I climbed out and moved around to the passenger side, lifting Nova out setting her down between mine and Harper’s vehicles. Nova’s tail was wagging even harder now.

Harper

Sitting in my car, I was lucky to park looking out to the sea before me. I didn’t want to be late, but now that I was here my stomach was feeling that rush of butterflies again. “What is wrong with me?” I muttered turning the engine on again to keep the heat going just for a little longer.

He wasn’t here yet, so I pulled out my phone to look to see if he may have left me a message to say that Nova wasn’t up to it. I would completely understand if that were to happen, but then there was this rush of wishing that the baby girl would be up for it. That I would see her and Collin tonight. I hoped that she was starting to show some change. As my mind moved on to Nova, I felt an ease in myself. my hands weren’t all clammy, my throat wasn’t as dry.

“This is ridiculous.” Taking my glasses off, I set them on the passenger seat. Rubbing the bridge of my nose, I leant forward. My forehead resting on the wheel I closed my eyes. Counting to five and taking deep breaths of air into my lungs.

The ring of my phone coming from the speakers made me jump out of my skin. “Jeez!” I exclaimed hitting answer without looking to see who it was.

‘Hey beautiful. Are you alive and well or is this your ghost answering?’

My lips curled up at hearing the voice coming from my speakers. “Jenna! Hi! How are you, Dam and Carl? And Haha, you are so funny.” I moved to sit back in my seat.

‘Well, I knew there had to be a reason why one of my sisters has been MIA of late. And the boys are well. They miss you.’ Her voice was high pitched, but it was her joking and sarcastic one.

“You know I’m on my own here right now Jen.. But fingers crossed that could change soon. The Chief of the tribe here in La Push is trying to help me with my plans to bring in some help… And I miss you all so much too.” I told her. And I really did. “Is everything okay with you there?” I asked because this wasn’t the normal time, she would call me.

‘Really? That’s great news Harps. I’m sure the Chief will be impressed with all you have planned.’ She and #Kenz really were my life cheerleaders. ‘Hey! can’t a girl call for no reason?’ she asked and then laughed. ‘I just missed hearing your voice Harps.’ Her voice softened a little on the other end.

“You know you never need a reason.” My heart was getting a little heavy, I wanted to hug her when she spoke like this.

‘What are you up to, are you still at work?’ I could hear her moving around on the other side.

“No, I’m done for the day, just sat in my car at the beach—” She cut me off.

‘The beach alone? And isn’t it like in the low 40s there right now? ’ this made me laugh.

“Are you checking the weather in La Push?” I laughed again, all the nerves that had been building up had all washed away. “I’m alone right now but I’m waiting for Collin and Nova to arrive. He asked me to join them for a walk.” This was all she needed.

The Spanish Inquisition began. She moved hundred miles per hour, and I sat smiling and answering all her questions from: If Collin was the same boy, we’d all spoke about before. If he was as cute in real life as the photo #Jessica had sent them of me Nova and Collin in the exam room. If I was waiting long, because I was always so early…

‘Harper don’t overthink it. I know I don’t know this Collin, but I know you. You will always put work before yourself. But give this guy a chance.’ She’d said to me.

The sound of another car coming to a standstill on the gravel made me look in my rear-view mirror. “He is here Jenna. I should go. Give my love to everybody and we will have dinner soon.” We said our good byes and I turned the engine off. Pulling my ponytail to tighten it, I looked out to see Collin smiling at me from his Orange Nissan Navara. It was shocking how the colour of his truck was so different to the blacks, greys, reds, and silvers I was used to seeing in town. He parked right next to my Emerald Green Bug, and I could see Nova getting a little excited at seeing where she was.

“You can do this, just a walk. Don’t make a fool of yourself.” I was glancing at myself in the mirror before I opened the door and climbed out.

“Hi you two.” Nova was there ready to jump on me, her tail wagging with excitement and I could see the positive change in her. “Ahh.. Down..” I told her and she dropped her feet from me, still excited so I rubbed her head, ear and neck. “Hi baby-girl, you look so much better.” Bending at my knees I leant down into her. Kissing the top of her head, before out of habit I looked into her eyes and then touched the top of her nose. “So much better”

I smiled looking up at Collin, daring to glance at him. My stomach doing that fluttering thing, and then it was here again. That Pull in my chest wanting to be here with him, to be close to him. Standing up I noticed he also had washed and changed since I last saw him.

“Hi, you both made it—” I closed my eyes and kicked myself. Of course, they did. They were here stood before me!

“It’s just.. I wasn’t sure if she would be up to it tonight.”

Collin

Before she was even out of the car that feeling... the pull… the tension snapped and there was a sense of ease to it now. There was still a longing there, but she was here. I smiled at Harper when she climbed out of the car, I was close enough to reach out and touch her. I wasn't going to, I mean not yet anyway. Just being close enough to her made me feel... as lame as it sounded; whole.

I smiled at Harper; Nova of course immediately jumped on her. She corrected her, she knew I had her in training and it just made me smile even more. "Hi." I chuckled. "Yeah, she almost finished a whole bowl of the medicine you gave her. I'll give her another one when we get home tonight." I held out Nova's leash to her.

"Do you mind holding onto her for a sec, she can pull a little sometimes." I warned her because it shocked people how strong she could be. “Thank you, so much… it really seems to have helped.”

I reached back into the car and grabbed the jacket I kept in the back seat… I hated it. But I had to play human for now. I pulled out the blanket and the thermos and tucked them under my arm. “I came prepared. Coffee… I wasn’t sure I could risk messing up a hot chocolate recipe with such a connoisseur.”

I said with a smile and reached out to take back Nova’s leash, my fingers brushed over the back of her hand and it sent shockwaves up my arm and straight to my heart. It thumped wildly and it was just then that I realised she wasn’t wearing her glasses.

I had seen her without them on briefly in her office when she was sat on the floor with Nova, but I hadn’t had a chance to get a close look at her before she put them back on. I tilted my head a little and my eyes moved over her face, one corner of my mouth curled up into a smile. My wolf cleared his throat gruffly in the back of my mind. I shook myself. She probably thought I was staring, and she wouldn’t be wrong.

“Um…” I cleared my throat now.

“Shall we?” I nodded out towards the beach and looked back to her, not staring this time. I hoped.

I scanned the area; there were a couple of people walking along the sand dotted up and down the shoreline. But no one above six foot yet, so it was safe to say none of the pack was here. I half wondered if it had something to do with #Rachel. Most of the guys would be out of work now and on a day like this; they would normally flock to the beach with their imprints and enjoy the sun regardless of the temperature. The girls just stuck close to their Protectors to stay warm.

Harper

“Did she?” I patted Nova’s head and rubbed it again. “That’s such a good girl, I’m so proud of you for drinking that all up. My little star.” I glanced over to Collin as he held the leash out for me to take. “Not at all, happy to.”

Nova was a puppy; however, she was a powerhouse like any Husky. I knew they had started some training, but it was early days. I planted my feet into the gravel the best I could in case Nova decided that she’d follow her dad back to their truck, which was only a few feet away. But She stayed with me as I spoke to her telling her how good she was.

My eyes glimpsed over to Collin every few seconds and then back to Nova. That pull that had been building in my chest had somehow with a blink of an eye started to slowly melt away. As if this was where I’d meant to be. I shook my head and whispered into Nova’s ear. “I think I am going mad.” Kissing her head and then I straightened myself up again. As he pulled his jacket on, I tilted my head a little. How was he not cold? He’d been standing out here without a jacket. I shivered at the thought of it and I was wrapped up nice and warm, but still tugged the zip up higher and then buttoned the top too.

Nova, tugged at her lead a little as Collin spoke and I saw that he had come prepared. “I didn’t even think to bring a blanket or anything to drink.” I felt that rush of blood into my cheeks, at being called a connoisseur of Hot chocolate. “I should have made you some hot chocolate.. Rain check?” I offered as an 𝙄𝙊𝙐.

Reaching out to hand Nova’s leash back to him, I felt the brush of his fingers over my skin, and it sent a jolt of electricity up my hand, arm and into my chest. My pulse was racing and that warmth I’d felt with him in the café was back and making itself known again. Finally, when I could steady myself and I glanced over to him his eyes were mesmerising. He was looking at me in a way that nobody had ever done before. It kind of reminded me of the way #Seth would gaze at #Kenz from time to time.

But then my internal monologue had ideas of her own. ‘Was I going mad and seeing things? I must be? There must be something on my face? Oh no! was there peanut butter on my face?’ I gently brushed my fingers over my cheeks and then my lips, but I couldn’t feel anything. I moved to push the rim of my glasses up my nose and that was when I about poked myself in the eyes. “Ouch!” Rubbing the skin at the top of the bridge of my nose, I looked back into the passenger seat of my car. My glasses were sat looking back at me.

‘You are such a fool Harper Lee! Such a Nerd!’ I told myself, turning to face the direction of the beach. “Yes, please lets. I’m sure Nova would like to get her paws in the sand past the pebbles.”

Placing my hands into my pockets to keep them warm, there was a chill in the air by the water as we started down to the not so crowded beach. “I could swear Jess said that this place would be busy on such a lovely day and evening.” I told him, stealing a glance at him again as we walked.

TBC....

[yanderewatch]

but like imagine junkrat, zarya, and mccree, pining after somebody who is literally perfect in their eyes, like they dont think theyll ever get together cause theyre not in their leuge, they still stalk then and pine after them of course, but imagine their surprise when this god/goddess in their eyes kisses them!

(Admin A here, sorry if these suck or don’t really feel that yandere. Though they are really fluffy :3 Anyways, We have finished up what we have left and we did rush them so sorry if they’re bad. I feel I did a bad job on this one so if so I’m sorry but I hope you can enjoy it nevertheless. I do feel that this one was hard to make yandere, it took more of a stalker specifications which made it hard for me to be more creative. For future ref please make your ask as yandere as possible and don’t set to many limitations on them cause it makes it harder on us. After this is posted the box will be open so send in as many as you want.)

Junkrat:

♡ At first site Junkrat knew he was in love. All it took was for their eyes to meet his and in that moment he felt his heart flutter. He had never laid eyes on someone so perfect before, never had anyone spark this type of kind of emotion in him before.

♡ He found his thoughts flooded with them, everything from their hair to their lips. He knew that they were far to amazing for anyone on this planet, including him. The thought made him feel wistful, knowing that he’d never be good enough for them. Despite telling himself that everyday it didn’t make it any easier. He wanted them, no. He needed them in more than anything, so he started to make friends. Becoming closer to them everyday.

♡ At first this was enough, being able to get close and talk to them everyday maybe even get a hug every now and then. But it wasn’t enough. It was never enough. He could still remember how it felt to hug them for even a moment. Having their arms wrapped around him and his around them. He felt warm and at ease, holding them close was everything.

♡ He found himself needing more though. Their touch now gone left a sensation of wanting more. So he started stalking them. He’d often follow them to the store maybe talk to them like it was pure coincidence. Going into their room in the cover of darkness just to caress their cheek.

♡ This would go on for weeks, Junkrat hanging out with them during the day, and watching them at night. Whenever he saw them talking to someone else he felt jealousy flare up inside him and the person would always be reported dead the next day. He knew that they were far too perfect for anyone, he knew that no one deserved to have them. So when someone tried to take them, they’d die. It’s as simple as that.

♡ The day’s turned to weeks and before he knew it a few months had passed. Everything being the same till this day. Feeling a soft tap on his solder he turned only to be greeted with the lips of now lover. He doesn’t hesitate to kiss back, taking in his s/o.

Zarya:

♡ When she first saw them she didn’t think anything special, they looked small and week as if they could be crushed like a bug. She felt the need to help them become stronger. So she volunteered to train them, helping them become stronger.

♡ As she trained them she grew to see them as much more than what she first thought. They were strong, not wanting to give up and always trying to do better. No matter how tired out they were they never gave up. She began to admire that about them.

♡ The moment she realised that she had feelings for them she felt herself melt, her mind becoming clouded with thoughts of them. When helping them work out she’d most often find herself lost in her thoughts, thinking about confessing how she feels. That is till it hits her, she goes to get a drink only to come back and see someone flirting with the one she loves. She feels angry but keeps a calm exterior acting as if nothing is bothering her.

♡ That night she kills the one who chose to flirt with her crush, she says how they deserve so much better than anyone on this planet can offer. She upset, angry with herself knowing that she’s not good enough but then thinks. If she works harder and improves herself even more than maybe she’ll be good enough.

♡ She starts training even harder knowing that one day she can be good enough for her crush. Well training one day she didn’t expect to see her crush being harassed by a man. Going over to them she’d threaten and if they chose to not listen she’d deck them before telling them to run. Once the man has fled she’d make a mental note to find them later and finish them off. She’d ask her crush if their okay, only to be greeted with a pair of lips against her own. She’d hesitated before kissing back smiling knowing that she’s the only one good enough for her s/o.

McCree:

♡ McCree has always been the type to joke around but when it came to his crush he often just because a blubbering mess. Everytime he see them is like the first as he falls in love all over again. Eyes become fixated on them taking in every little detail. How their hair shines in the light to how they subconsciously tug their shirt when nervous.

♡ He knows that he’ll never have them, but that doesn’t mean that he doesn’t want anyone else with them. Oh no no. He doesn’t want anyone to taint what’s so perfect. Good thing he knows how to hide a corpse.

♡ He loves everything about his crush, and has come to terms of not being able to have them. Though not being able to date them doesn’t stop him from crawling into his crushes bed and holding them in his arms as he watches their sleeping face.

♡ He knows everything about them, from their middle name to the toothpaste they use He can’t help but have them on his mind 24/7 and when their in the same room talking he’s completely lost in their eyes, ignoring all the words that leave their lips. It often results in him coming back to reality embarrassed that he had zoned out and then jokes about it. Only to have himself completely fixated on their laugh. It’s like music to his ears and the oxygen he needs to breath. He needs it.

♡ In a blissful moment is when it happened. A small kiss was placed upon his lips, he felt himself freeze but as his crush pulled away he reached down to grab their face, pulling them into a desperate kiss. Something he’s dreamed about since the day he met them. He held them close as if they’d disappear from existence if he let go.

i think its nice to see how much the kids really respect and admire and ask questions from yixing. its cool to hear that he thinks ycw is dancing well for having just started in feb 2019. 

AH he specifically said jin fan sang well :’) and he said jin fan should be a good older brother!!!! my heart !!!!! ugh and “感覺靳凡還蠻想跳的" he actually like knows jin fan so well !!!

man i also wish jin fan could dance more !!! can we pleeeassee make it happen next stage?? can we also talk about how quiet jin fan is though? i literally feel like everyone is talking around him and about him but he only says like 2 words. :( its sad to me because theyre saying nice things and all, but he doesnt get a say at all, and i know he can be way more lively and outgoing than this but he tends to get all quiet in front of the teachers and the camera :( i feel like this is a common problem for the tygers and it frustrates me bc it feels like theyre too passive and not confident enough, and it hinders people from noticing them and recognizing their skills. 

oof hearing huang enyu’s practice room version of his opening lines just HITS ME IN THE FEELS. his voice is so nice, doesnt need any add-ons, like yixing said

wait im watching the 30 min mv and i didnt think id need to rant about until now, but im halfway through and it was going aightttttt, my main qualm so far has been that the songs they picked dont showcase the vocals well??? like the kids don’t sound very good, which is bugging me bc i know they can sing well.... and like, okay i expected the acting is played by gjm’s favorite kids, okay im not surprised, so im not even that salty that lin mo (DESPITE BEING POPULAR) got ignored for a main role again. im slightly annoyed that xikan (of all people) isnt in a more important role, bc he deserves it and his fans are probably angry af. (at least, they should be) his popularity is a significant contributor to any minor relevance this show manages to have, but it feels like they just tagged his name onto the very end of the trainees who were introduced at the beginning as an afterthought to appease his fans. i was also a little miffed that they pretend like they’re including some of the others by putting he yijun in the background while focusing on zuo ye’s face, or calling out kou cong’s name like theyre pretending to recognize oh yea he’s here and he’s good at dancing, thanks for the reminder. but whatever, im honestly not too mad bc i dont have high expectations for tygers to get big roles, and the acting kids are not that bad and im just glad ive been able to see some closeups of lin mo and zhan yu’s faces already, and im okay with the storylines so far EXCEPT 

once i got to the part where zlj’s mom comes to visit and those random fangirls are calling out / holding signs for yang zixin and tell her that zlj is not popular. THAT triggered me. it’s like an insult to kids like zixin, and all the kids who are even less popular than zixin. zixin literally got 0.5 seconds of screentime during his singing line prior to this, like noticeably less than even the other vocalist kids??? and i guess its nice they’re putting his name in, but honestly it feels like theyre making a mockery of him and the unpopular kids by saying ZLJ OF ALL PEOPLE is not popular. i literally rolled my eyes when i heard that. i cant believe youku. if theyre really trying to make a point about the unfairness of popularity among contestants, why didn’t they actually cast someone who’s not as popular for the role? 

im sad to see the acting kids also dancing during the dancing parts bc im like ??? dont you have enough screen time, shouldnt this go to someone else?? but also like where are all the other kids??? this dance doesnt even look that hard, why is there only so few kids on screen? on the other hand, how did they even pick the kids who are in the vocal part? my first thought was where’s junrong??? how can you do a vocal section without junrong?? but then i realized why arent all the vocals from 後來的我們 here?? where are xu zhaohao and li chenxu? what??? im so confused, they literally are RECOGNIZED as the vocals on this show (even tho there are other good vocals too!! im not even gonna go into that, dont get me started) but at least people KNOW those kids are good singers and yet theyre not here?? 

what is that ridiculous thing hwx is wearing wtf

omg we got 0.2 seconds of xue en screentime and he KILLED IT. 

what is this random period drama fighting scene.

i was about to say the storyline got pretty touching and i was pretty into it but then wtf is this random zuo ye and zlj fight scene. the random dance break (with THE SAME dance crew) is also quite random and im starting to think this dance crew’s scenes are literally in there to appease the fans of popular kids who didnt get big roles (LIKE XIKAN AND LIN MO) and also randomly promote other kids who are liked by youku and gjm

uh also when i heard li hao and huang enyu singing in cantonese UH WHAT EXCUSE ME?! this is just AN INSULT to xu zhaohao YET AGAIN bc come on......... everyone knows that li hao and him are THE cantonese duo on this show. and i love huang enyu and im happy he got to sing but CMON does he even speak cantonese?? (i just looked him up and hes from hangzhou so i dont think so?????? correct me if im wrong) but even if not zhaohao, there are OTHER CANTONESE VOCALS /cough/ jin fan /cough/ but okay..................... 

ugh i love huang enyu but him being magically turned into one of gjm’s favored children overnight just doesnt sit well with me. i dont want him to gain favoritism bc he begged gjm for it and gjm pitied him. i want him to gain attention because he deserves it. bc he’s a talented singer with a beautiful voice and bc hes passionate for the stage. i wish other people saw him for that too. 

wow this “MV” if you can even call it that, just left me with a strong sense of there being tiers to the favoritism. hwx is apparently on top lol but followed by all the kids with acting roles aka zy, zlj, ycw, xzx. then the next tier is the kids who are in the dancing group and then the singing group and then its the kids who got less than a second of screen time (i even saw liu cong in there lol) but then there are the rest of the kids wHO WERENT EVEN THERE. 

smh..................................... and its not even based on popularity so it literally feels so random and im ???????? how did they pick the kids??? 

i knew not to have high expectations, but at least they TRIED to put everyone in the last mv, this time, they literally DIDNT INVITE some of them to be there AT ALL. wtf????? 

ugh i was gonna go watch todays ep after this but i dont know if i can... im just mad. 

#rants #maybe i should start labeling my rants #but this one is about the vip cut from last week's snzm ep and the 30 min mv

💫 who inspires you?

Honestly, i know this sounds very cliche but if i’m going to be honest it would the boys. They showed me what it is to chase after what i love they showed me what it is to be ME. To never stop chasing my dreams ever since i decided my major i never looked back. Even when my parents told me it wasn’t the right decision idgaf its my life yk? They truly inspired me to be kind, to be happy, to run after all things i love and to fully love myself for who i am no matter what people have to say.
