summary: the biggest goal of a grad student is to get through school in one piece - no petty drama involved, no sweating over the little things. however, that plan almost always never follows through. sometimes, you can’t help but fall into the most unthinkable, unexpected traps and learn the hard way. like, exhibit a: being unable to resist your engaged, substitute teacher, kim seokjin.

pairing: (2nd bts member to be revealed later on) x reader x engaged!teacher!seokjin

genre: grad school au, student life au | fluff, angst, smut (to come)

You decided to stay behind with Jimin to get some homework done at the library. You were super tired, being that work earlier in the day was jam-packed with problems left and right. You literally felt like you had no time to take a breather up until now, if this is even considered a breather. You've also been feeling a little behind on your school work, and you knew trying to get this done at home wouldn't do you any good right now. You definitely wouldn't get anything done.

But damn, going home after grabbing your groceries and grubbing on some sushi and wine sure sounded nice as hell. Oh well, at least it'll be worth it.

As you sit in the far corner of the library with Jimin's back facing the entrance, you spot Mr. Kim walking towards the doors with another professor. You continue to write your notes as much as possible, but the distraction was evident and you weren't even mad at it. You continue to glance at him, just because he was simply nice to look at it, as he stood, hands in pockets while he laughed along with professor in front of him. Jimin raises his eyebrow and follows your glance, shaking his head at how blatantly obvious you were being.

"Y/N, really?" You were pulled out of your trance.

"Sorry."

"You literally can't be any more obvious." He laughed as he continued to write his notes.

"He's just nice to look at."

"Yes, I've heard." He snorted. "He's like, the talk of campus right now."

"See, and to think Taehyung was the only news that got around."

"God forbid he hears his spotlight has been taken away." Jimin responds sarcastically to match your tone. Mr. Kim glances over and coincidentally catches you looking at him, so he flashes that smile of his before returning his attention to the other professor. You return the favor toothlessly as he walks out of the library, bringing your attention back to the papers in front of you. "Stop!"

"I'm sorry, I really am." You laugh at Jimin's flustered look.

"You and Ryujin need to keep it in your pants."

"Calm down, we are." You rose your eyebrow. "But, let's just say he is single-"

"I'm not even gonna have this conversation with you right now."

"Hear me out." He sighs before looking up at you. "I would literally ride his face and bust it open for that man 24/7. Better yet, I'd ride him into the sunset. I would literally give it all to him, if given the opportunity." There's a slight pause before Jimin responds.

"Are you finished?"

"I think so."

"Never again am I giving you the benefit of the doubt." He waves his hand to dismiss that entire portion of the conversation, but hey, you were just being honest. A little too honest, but sometimes you just had to let it out. "Anyways, what are you doing after this?"

"I have a date with Trader Joes, then I'm gonna meet up with sushi and wine and hang out on my couch." Jimin chuckles.

"Fun."

"What about you?"

"Just head home, probably hop on Monster Hunter and hunt with Taehyungie."

"Sounds productive." You nodded in agreement.

"Wanna have dinner soon? You cook, I clean?" He smirked.

"Or.. you cook, I clean, or we can order take-out. Those are the only two options."

"Actually, I'm not opposed to cooking."

"Just let me know, date and time." He nods. Sooner or later, you both are checking the clock and packing up by the time you realize it's 7:30pm. You figured now would be a good time to grab your groceries since the rush has probably died down. You had quite the list of groceries to grab and you were feeling relieved that you could finally make the time to go.

When you arrive, the lot is still slightly full of cars, but you easily grab a spot on the other end of the lot. You tucked your jacket tightly against your body before grabbing a cart for all your needs. You can't lie, this is pretty soothing to you and you're pretty excited to walk up and down the aisles, browsing at all the unnecessary items you'll probably end up throwing in your cart. I mean, why the hell not? It only means your cabinets and fridge would be stocked for awhile—

"Oops, so sorry." You're pulled out of your exciting thoughts when you accidentally bump into someone trying to step back and bend down for some black truffle alfredo sauce on the bottom shelf.

"Miss Y/L/N?" You recognized that voice. Easily. Slowly turning, you see Mr. Kim and tuck a strand of hair behind your ear. Your body goes hot and you can't help but feel incredibly embarrassed for having literally bumped into him, yet again. He must be so damn tired of running into you already.

"Oh my god, I did it again." You facepalmed, causing him to chuckle. "I'm so sorry."

"Hey, at least it was softer this time. And you're empty-handed." You flash him a worried look. "I'm kidding, Miss Y/L/N. I promise it's not a big deal." Your expression softened. You can't help but marvel at his beauty and how truly flawless he was.

"You must probably hate me already."

"Well, I don't hate anyone for one thing, and two, I don't think there's any way that I can hate you." You softly smile at him.

"I swear I'm not doing this on purpose, Mr. Kim. I'll be more careful--"

"Call me Jin."

"Jin?"

"Mr. Kim doesn't exist if we aren't in the classroom." You nodded as you followed his lead with your cart.

"Alright, Jin. Well, I promise I'm not doing this on purpose."

"Sure about that?"

"100%." You both laughed before there was a slightly awkward pause. "Sooo, grocery day for you, too?"

"Mmm, yeah I figured I might as well since I'm still in the area."

"Do you live nearby?"

"About 25 minutes away or so in Orinda. You?"

"Yeah, right up in the Oakland hills."

"Beautiful area, I gotta say."

"It is. Sometimes, it has its days. Still can't hate it though." He nodded. You had both pushed your carts towards the cashiers at this point, and you took notice of the ring on his finger. Bummer, you jokingly thought. That would have been fun. You internally chuckle at Ryujin's hoe ass ways rubbing off on you, but at the same time, could you really expect a man like him to be single? Fucking kidding me? "Did you grab everything you needed for you and your wife?" You don't know what takes over you, but the question is already out there. No take-backs.

"Uh," He chuckles nervously as he scratches the nape of his neck. "Fiancé, so not entirely there yet. But yes, yes I did. Did you?"

"Yeah, I'm done. Or, I should be, so I don't grab more things that I don't need." You pointed down at your cart. You both fall in line together, with Jin going first. Afterwards, he grabs his bags and lingers around at the end of the cashier.

"Let me grab those for you and walk you to your car."

"I got it."

"No, I got it." He insists as he gently grabs the bags from you. "Besides, it's dark out."

"Thank you, I really do appreciate it. But, I don't wanna take more time out of your day. I am a grown woman who can handle it, you know?" You chuckle.

"Yeah, I know. And you're also a grown woman who lives in this world and it's close to 9pm." He looked down at you as he continued to follow you to your car on the other end of the lot. What a gentleman. Honestly, everything you told Jimin earlier stands and this man was doing nothing but proving your ass right. He could really get it.

When you finally arrived at your car, he placed your bags in your trunk and shut it close.

"What's next, gonna make sure I get home safely?" You joked, but you were silently cursing yourself because your flirting had been a little rusty and this was not it, miss.

"I mean, I would if you really needed me to for safety reasons."

"Well, that's sweet, but I'll be alright. Thank you, though." He nodded.

"You sure?"

"I promise."

"Lots of promises being made tonight Miss Y/L/N, please don't let me down."

"Just call me Y/N." You gave him a reassuring nod.

"Lots of promises being made tonight Miss Y/N, please don't let me down." He repeated, smiling from ear to ear.

"I won't." You took one last look at him. "Thank you again. Not sure how else I can thank you for taking the time out of your evening to do this." You open the door to the driver's side, with Jin holding it open for you as you step in and situate yourself in the seat.

"It's not a problem at all. Drive home safely."

"You too. See you tomorrow?"

"See you in class." He shuts your door and winks before walking off. With that, you had driven off to grab your dinner and head home. What the hell just happened? It seemed like the most basic thing, but you couldn't shake off how sweet his gestures were tonight. Damn, has it really been that long since you've gotten any type of action?! You couldn't help but think of his fiancé and how she must be so happy to have someone like him by her side. Not gonna lie though, you feel a little heartbroken about it.

"He's engaged." You drank a huge gulp of your wine as you facetimed with Ryujin. She snorted and shook her head. "Our fine piece of eye candy is engaged."

"Y/N, I love you, and he was such a gentleman for that, but you're such a hoe." She laughed louder. "Are you fucking kidding me right now? He is a grown ass man with a fiancé and he's our teacher! You need to stop having these impure thoughts."

"Shush, it's harmless. I was just entertaining myself with the what if's."

"Please. I know you. None of these what if's ever stay what if's. Your curiosity always gets to the best of you." Her tone rose playfully.

"What if I just want to have a one-on-one session with him?"

"See, there it goes. One-on-one over what? How to get dicked down properly?"

"No. To get to know him better as our p r o f e s s o r."

"Okay and why wasn't Dr. Bliss on your 'get to know me' list?"

"That's different."

"How?" You laugh. This kind of behavior was unexpected from Ryujin. You didn't think she'd be so against your hoe-ish thoughts. "There's open office hours for that, or maybe yet, a google sheet for him to get in contact with his students so he could set up time with everyone!"

"We're overthinking this."

"We? You. I know you want that ass."

"Stop, no!"

"Mhm, and he probably would too if you gave him the green light cause you're hot as hell." This sounded more like Ryujin. "This is some good, wild shit."

"Oh hush, no it's not. No one wants anything, no one is doing anything and no one should be doing anything."

"Wait till Jimin and Tae hear your thoughts." She laughed out loud once more.

"That's why they aren't on this call." You groaned. "You know what, I need to not talk about this anymore. I'm gonna go sit in a hot, relaxing bath. Goodbye."

"With Mr. Kim?"

"Bitch, alone. Bye." You chucked your phone to the side and shook your head. Where that conversation go? Absolutely nowhere. You were having a tiny crush on your professor and that was it. This too shall pass.

But lowkey, you'd risk it if he gave you the opportunity.

"You don't do that shit, Y/N. Not to anyone." You harshly whisper to yourself to shake the thoughts out of your head and get your bath started. You just don't do that shit to people who are engaged, let alone in relationships. You don't wreck the home they've built from the ground up.

I repeat: you don't lose that respect.

Now or Never - Part 10, Final Chapter

Genre: College!AU

Pairing: Jae x You (Female!Reader)

Warnings: Extreme fluff 😍

Part 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 | Words: 1,951

Just about one year later

You couldn’t believe it had already been a year since you’d moved into your new apartment. I mean, it wasn’t new anymore, but still. You get what I’m talking about.

A year ago today, Jae had called over four of his cousins, and they had all carried everything in from the small moving truck while you had told them where to put all of your stuff.

It had been glorious.

And! It had been just over a year since you and Jae had graduated from University. A year and four-ish months since you’d taken your friendship to the next level. Getting on five years since you’d first met and become best friends.

It’s so crazy how time goes by so quickly.

You were currently driving home, on your way back from a very important errand, and you found your mind wandering back to everything that had happened over the last year.

Both you and Jae had started new jobs at the same time, so for about a month after moving, the two of you had been pretty stressed and exhausted. You had started doing yoga, Jae had joined a gym, and the two of you had cuddled on your couch and watched so many movies. You both had been too mentally drained to even play video games, so that’s how you know it’s bad.

But once you both got into the swing of things at work, your routine began to take shape. Jae was in charge of dinner, and you insisted it was only because he got home from work earlier than you did. Not because you were still a disaster in the kitchen.

After eating dinner, you would do the dishes, and then the two of you would settle on the couch for a tv show, movie, or a game. Most days, Jae would then head to the gym, and you would either do yoga or get some sort of chore done around the house.

Once Jae got back, you would both get ready for bed. Jae would usually read before going to sleep, and you would put in your headphones and watch YouTube.

On the weekends, you would go shopping, try out new restaurants, visit your families... whatever you felt like doing! And, yes, you did still play a lot of video games. You were out of college, but you hadn’t grown out of gaming just yet. (And you probably never would.)

Honestly, your life with Jae made it seem like the two of you were an old, married couple.

And you loved it.

There was just one thing missing.

A dog.

The apartment was just too quiet, and you certainly weren’t going to have kids anytime soon. Plus, you and Jae had talked about it a few times, and you had both agreed that a dog was definitely in the cards for you.

So... that’s why there was one currently sitting in the backseat of your car.

You had done a lot of research and scouting your local shelters, and you’d finally found the perfect dog to add to your little family. She was small, so she wouldn’t feel cramped in an apartment, and you were 99% sure her fur wouldn’t make your boyfriend sneeze and itch. Plus, the shelter had named her Phoebe, and that was a character in Jae’s favorite book, so it really just seemed like fate!

You couldn’t wait to see the look on his face when you walked in the door holding her.

Jae couldn’t wait to see the look on your face when you walked in the door.

It’s already been established that Jae is not the most romantic guy. He liked to watch romantic movies, but he had never quite got the hang of being a romantic boyfriend.

You had never really minded, though, since you insisted he showed you he loved you in other ways. He didn’t have to buy you flowers or cook you dinner or write you poems or anything like that.

But tonight, he had.

Well, he’d done two of those things, not all of them. He had bought you flowers and he had cooked you dinner.

Okay, technically, he’d only done one.

He’d bought you flowers, but he’d ordered dinner from Taco Bell.

But that was romantic because Taco Bell was your place. You’d eaten there together countless times, and seeing one always made him think of you, and he just knew that getting food from Taco Bell was the right move tonight, okay?

He had also put romantic candles on the table, and he had made a playlist of your favorite romantic songs, including songs from your favorite romantic movies, and he was pretty sure he had never been this romantic in his entire life.

But you were worth it. Tonight was worth it.

He slid his phone out of his pocket to check the time and to see if you had sent him any messages. It was currently just before 6pm, and you had sent him a text about ten minutes ago: On my way home! 😘

Perfect.

The Taco Bell had just been delivered, the candles were lit, the music was playing softly in the background...

Now all he needed was you.

He was in the middle of typing a reply to you, requesting you that drive safely, when he heard the jingle of keys just outside the door.

Yikes!

His heart started to race, and he strode over so he could meet you and put his hands over your eyes. He wanted everything to be a surprise starting from the second you opened the door.

As soon as he arrived at the front door, the doorknob turned, and it began to slowly swing toward him.

“Okay, close your -- what?!”

“Surprise!” you cried gently, the biggest smile on your face as you held a dog in your arms.

An actual dog.

A real, live DOG!

“Who is this?!” Jae gasped, reaching out and taking the dog from you.

“This is Phoebe!” you told him with a very soft, high-pitched voice. “And that’s what she was already named at the shelter!”

“Phoebe,” Jae marveled, holding the small dog so he could look in her face. Phoebe immediately stuck her tongue out and began to lick Jae’s face, and he heard the click of your phone camera go off a couple of times. “How -- why -- you brought her home, like, forever?”

“Yes, forever,” you chuckled. “We’ve been talking about getting a dog, and it’s been a year since we moved in here, and I figured I would surprise you!”

What are the odds that you would surprise him on the exact same night he was going to surprise you!

And speaking of, you finally noticed that the apartment did not look like it usually did. Your brow furrowed as your eyes darted around, and you said, “Wait, what’s going on? Candles? Flowers? And -- is that music?”

Jae cradled Phoebe in his arms and shot you a somewhat bashful grin. “You aren’t the only one who planned a surprise.”

Your jaw dropped, and you brought your hands up to cover your open mouth as you stepped into the apartment. “Oh my god,” you whispered. “Jae, this is so romantic -- is this Taco Bell?!”

“Hell yeah,” he replied with a grin.

“Jae! This is beautiful!” You walked over to him, sliding your arms around his middle and standing on your toes to give him a kiss.

Phoebe, of course, intervened and began licking your face. You squealed and sputtered, pulling away from your boyfriend only marginally.

“Thank you, Phoebe,” you giggled. “And thank you, too. This is a wonderful surprise.”

Jae simply nodded because dinner wasn’t actually the surprise, and he wanted to tell you that but then the actual surprise would be ruined.

“Is this just for our one-year mark of living in this place?” you asked as you delicately took Phoebe from his arms and set her down on the floor so she could explore all the new smells in her home.

...Well, great. You were straight-up asking him why he had prepared dinner, and he couldn’t very well lie to you!

I mean, he had been planning on doing this after dinner, so it was only about ten or fifteen minutes early...

Oh, well. Here goes nothing.

“No,” he answered. “It’s not just for our one-year mark of living in this place.”

Your forehead wrinkled with slight confusion, and Jae reached into his pocket.

He pulled out a small, black box, and the second you saw it, he heard a soft gasp escape through your lips.

“I planned a romantic night...” He opened the box toward you, and you gasped again when you saw the ring inside. “So I could... propose.”

Your eyes immediately filled with tears, and you shifted your gaze to look at him. “Are you serious?” you choked out.

“Yeah,” he answered with a bashful chuckle. “I know it’s only been, like, a year and a half or something, but when you know, you know. And I know I’m definitely spending the rest of my life with you, so we should just get married now. If you want to wait, that’s totally fine, we can. But I honestly never thought this would happen, so I just got excited and impatient and --”

You cut him off with a kiss -- a hungry, desperate, salty kiss as tears streamed down your face.

“Yes,” you mumbled against his lips, barely even pulling out of the kiss. “Absolutely yes. Of course. I would marry you right now if I could.”

Jae smiled when you first said ‘yes,’ and it only grew bigger as you kept on talking. He fumbled to take the ring out of the box, and when you held your left hand out, he slid it onto your finger.

“I love you so much,” you whispered before you kissed him yet again.

“I love you so much, too,” he replied with a soft laugh. “And now we got a little family and everything.”

“Oh my god, this day is going to go down in history as the best day we’ve ever had. A dog and a ring on the same day,” you grinned.

“And I didn’t even know about the dog!” Jae said with amusement before he looked around the apartment to see where Phoebe had gone. (Under the couch to sniff and probably eat rogue crumbs of various snacks.)

“And I didn’t even know -- okay, well, most people don’t know when they’re getting proposed to, but you know what I mean.”

Jae held you for a few moments longer, letting you stare at the new piece of jewelry on your left hand. And then he asked, “Are you sure you don’t wanna wait?”

“Oh, yes, I’m sure. We’re already starting a new journey being dog parents, so why not add ‘Getting married’ to that list, too? Like you said, it’s going to happen sooner or later... might as well be sooner. Now or never, huh?”

“Well, not never,” Jae retorted with a slight smirk. “But I get you.”

“You always do,” you whispered before you kissed him. You framed his face and stood on your toes and kissed him like the last time you kissed him had been ten years ago. You told him you loved him about five times. You praised him for getting the most beautiful ring you’d ever seen, and he praised you for adopting the most adorable dog he’d ever seen.

Like you said just a few minutes ago... it was the best day you’d ever had.

But it certainly wasn’t the last best day.

sweetener - [three]

The One At The Library

Pairing: Tom Holland x Female Reader - uni AU

Word Count: 5170 ish

Warnings: swearing, alcohol, fluff, caffeine

A/N: sorry for the delay on this i am *jean ralphio voice* The Worst. I thiiiink this chapter should make up for it tho heheheh lemme know what you think!

Updates Fridays at 11pm BST

Tonight was one of those nights where it just wasn't your night. You stood in the SU toilets waiting for Liv, amid girls taking selfies in the mirrors and attempting to stick false eyelashes back on each other though they could hardly see. Another night, you might have been one of them, gleefully exclaiming "thanks, it's Missguided!" in response to compliments on your dress. Not tonight though.

There wasn't anything wrong per se - Madison was away visiting her boyfriend so it was just you and Liv with some of her friends from her course. They were nice, of course, and you liked them, but they weren't your friends so you didn't feel quite as at ease as you might have. Your pre-night out disco-nap had run on a bit longer than you had intended so you didn't have a lot of time to get ready, plus you thought you had alcohol in when you didn't, so all you had was a glass of warm, somewhat vinegary white wine while you got ready. You managed to pilfer another glass off someone at predrinks, and you'd bought a double when you arrived at the union, but all in all you were relatively sober compared to everyone else, and you weren't feeling particularly confident in your appearance, and honestly, you were bored.

You tapped through Instagram stories as you waited for Liv, neither drunken selfies nor dog photos nor influencers unboxing PR packages holding your attention for long. Your thumb hit the right hand side of the screen almost as soon as each new image came up, switching to the next one well before the full 15 seconds was up. Until this one.

A few nights prior, you, Liv, and Mads had gone on a social media binge after Liv had discovered that you and Harrison followed each other on Instagram and you hadn't told her (?!) - which had lead you to Tom's account. Madison had pressed follow for you in the end, and within ten minutes he'd followed you back. You still hadn't had the confidence to interact with him in any way, or text him for that matter, but it was a start. He'd posted a couple of stories since then, and to say you were glad that Instagram didn't show how many times someone has viewed your story would be an understatement. If it did...yikes. They weren't even all that interesting, but seeing little snippets of his life was nice, it almost made you feel like you knew him a little more. You didn't, of course, all you actually knew was that he went to the gym after work yesterday (from the picture of a protein shake with an 8:49pm timestamp with the caption "post-work gym sesh ☑") and that he'd been working on an essay this afternoon (from the screenshot of a Spotify playlist called Chill Lofi Study Beats with the caption "essay soundtrack 👌" and a location tag that placed him in the library).

And according to this post, he was still there - his laptop open with a notepad next to it, a couple of books and pens scattered across the desk, posted five minutes ago. You tapped through to the next picture, and all you could think was 'oh no'. This one was a selfie, his grumpy expression half covered by his fingers and his chin resting on his palm. His hair was a fluffy mess atop his head, white earphones in both ears and the collar of a black pullover hoodie just visible in the bottom of the frame. You didn't even realise you'd been looking at it that long until the screen skipped to the next story, and you didn't think you'd ever tapped the left side of your screen so fast. Pressing and holding on the screen to stop it timing out, you managed to actually read the caption this time - "send help and coffee 😧" - and maybe those three drinks had had more of an effect on you than you thought, because you were actually kind of considering replying, your thumb swiping up and down on the screen to bring up and hide the 'reply to story' options over and over. No, that's a stupid idea -- what would you even say?

Looking up as though one of the inhabitants of the girl's bathroom would have the answer, you spotted Liv coming out of a cubicle. She had definitely caught up with her friends at predrinks more than you had, and was bopping along to the music echoing in from the adjacent dancefloor as she washed her hands. She'd be badgering you to go get another drink, you knew, or go and dance, or something of that nature that didn't involve you sitting down and pondering potential social media interactions. You looked from her to your phone and back again, before deciding to throw caution to the wind and just say fuck it.

Vanilla latte sound good?

Closing the app and locking your phone as soon as you hit reply, you shoved your phone into your bag, as though if you didn't look at it then it wouldn't matter if Tom replied or not. Oh God, what if he doesn't reply? -- what if he does reply? What if--

"Let's get SHOTS!"

With a groan and a playful roll of your eyes you let Liv pull you back out to the bar, rejoining her friends. You ordered a shot of apple Sourz - which, yes, is a cop out shot, but you didn't particularly care to go for the sambuca shots that were lining up on the counter at Liv's request. Even if you weren't having one, though, it still made for a fun Instagram story - because even if you're not having fun it's important to make sure it looks like you are online, right? That was the only reason you took your phone back out of your bag, no other reason. You didn't even look at your notifications, not even a glance at that little red (1) in the top right hand corner, and you definitely didn't open it immediately after posting your story. No, you waited at least ten seconds while everyone took their shots, then you opened it.

That would be ideal🙏🏻

Hm. Liv tugged on your wrist again, pulling you towards a clubroom. Reluctantly, you followed, your group huddled loosely in a circle on the dancefloor. You moved your body to the beat, but your mind was less on the music and more on your phone, clutched tightly in your hand.

You knew he meant coffee, you knew it was a joke, but...Tom had been calling you Vanilla Latte until recently... But no. That's stupid, it's gone midnight and he's still studying, he definitely was just talking about coffee, he didn't mean, well, you. But still...

You glanced down at your phone, trying to be as inconspicuous as possible (though no one was watching, and if they were they wouldn't care, like, at all), and let out an involuntary squeak at the notification on the screen.

tomholland1996 replied to your story:

or a couple of those haha 😂

Not to read too much into things but... double message? You bit the corner of your lip to try and stop yourself from smiling as you unlocked your phone and tapped out a reply.

I bet haha

Your thumb hovered over the 'send' button, hesitating. What a shit reply - but what else do you say?

Tom is typing...

Oh shit. You deleted your message, but as soon as you did so he stopped typing too. Ugh. You waited a moment, and sure enough:

Tom is typing...

Anyway enjoy your night x

You almost scoffed, looking up and taking stock of your surroundings, that weird out of place feeling you get when you're the only sober(ish) one in a room of drunk people creeping over you. The music was too loud and too bassy, the lights were too flashy, everyone was bumping into you, plus your feet hurt and you were tired and you felt about fifty years older than your nineteen years.

🤷 su's actually shit tonight tbf

You tried to ignore the fact that 'seen' popped up under your message instantly.

Really? Sure its better than the library

Hm. Another elbow collided with your spine, and you decided then you were done with tonight.

Debatable

You know when youre just not feelin it?

You were barely even pretending to move to the music now, just nodding your head as your attention remained on your phone. It seemed to be getting more and more crowded anyway, so you hardly had any room to move even if you wanted to.

Fair

Think i'd just rather be doing anything other than writing this essay

Idk if id go so far as to say id rather be writing an essay but it'd defo rather be in bed 😴👵

Oh yeah thatd be my preferred choice too but i guess i'll just have to make do with coffee instead of sleep

Why dont you just go home tho?

That was a good point, you could go home. You didn't think Liv would mind, she was having fun and her friends lived close enough that sharing a cab home with them wouldn't be an issue. The only problem was, you didn't really want to go home - what you wanted to do was go and hang out with Tom. Not while he was working, or for five minutes when you bumped into him in the kitchen, but just...because. You nibbled at your bottom lip as you considered your options, flashing a smile-and-nod at Liv when she looked over at you and you lipread her shouting 'you okay?' at you. The library was just across the car park in the center of the campus, you could just pop in and say hello... and the coffee from the Lavazza branded machine downstairs in the SU was better than the weird generic one in the library.

I actually might you know

You typed out the next message really fast, taking a deep breath in before pressing send.

Could bring you a coffee on my way past?

Eyes trained on the screen, you held your breath as Tom is typing... popped up, disappeared, reappeared, then disappeared again.

You would be saving my life

Aaaand exhale.

Only seems fair

You'd almost forgotten where you were, if it weren't for the people jostling you around and the balls of your feet screaming in pain from your heels.

Haha yeah i think you probably owe me a latte or 7

Your heart was beating in your chest, and this was definitely how you saw your night going when you gulped down that glass of tepid chardonnay, but you couldn't say you were mad about it.

Exactly

So a latte then yeah?

Wait youre actually gonna ditch a night out and bring me a coffee?

Yep, that's exactly what you're doing.

Apparently so

Then yes a latte pls

Coming right up (that's what baristas say right?)

God how fucking cringe --

I think so idk im not a very good one

Youre ok

cheers

Weaving your way away from the group, you mimed taking a drink at Liv when she grabbed your arm as you passed her. You weren't really lying, you were going to get a drink, it was just going to be a caffeinated one instead of an alcoholic one. You couldn't be bothered explaining that to her right now, though, and she was already turning back to her friends and taking one of their faces in her hands to yell lyrics at them, so you didn't feel too bad about leaving her.

Your feet hurt a little less (only a little though) as you made your way down the stairs, and you only got a few weird looks as you got two lattes from the coffee machine. You got rather more weird looks, however, when you walked into the library. There was hardly anyone there at this time, just a handful of zombie-like students dotted around and a couple of security staff at the door keeping an eye on things, but every single one of them looked at you at least once as you meandered over to where Tom had told you he'd be. You couldn't really blame them though, it was gone midnight and there you were, clip-clopping through the university library in absurd heels and a dress that showed rather more of your skin than you would normally have exposed in that setting. You felt a little self-conscious, but with a cup of coffee in each hand you couldn't pull it down, so you had to make do with taking short, shuffling steps to try and minimise how far up your thighs the fabric would ride as you walked.

Just as he'd said, you found Tom at a table in the group study area. Books, balled up sheets of paper, pens and empty drinks cans littered the desk, looking rather more disorderly than his Instagram story had depicted. He hadn't seen you yet, and he looked to be deep in thought. Hunched over his laptop, the glow of the screen reflected in his glasses, his fingers were spread out across the keyboard as though he was about to start typing. In the time it took you to walk over, however, he didn't press a single key, and when you set one of the cups down beside him he jumped slightly, taking a sharp breath in like you'd startled him. Less 'deep in thought' and more 'in a deep trance', perhaps.

Tom groaned when you giggled, pulling his earphones from his ears and blinking rapidly to try and reawaken his eyes.

"You're a lifesaver, thank you."

He gave you a small smile as he reached for his coffee, his face tired but eyes still bright as he looked up at you. You could feel his gaze scanning over your body, making you feel a different kind of self-conscious - the kind that made you smooth out your dress to sit nicely across your thighs now that you had a free hand, rather than tugging it down as far as it would go like you wanted to when you walked in.

"No worries."

Hovering awkwardly beside the desk, it only then occurred to you that Tom probably wanted you to leave so he could get on with his essay and get out of the library as quickly as possible. He seemed to sense this train of thought from you, because he hummed something incoherent through a mouthful of coffee and scrambled to move some of his crap aside so there was space for you to sit at the table.

"Sorry--"

"Oh, um-"

You did a sort of half-laugh, stepping back out of the way to let him push papers and books aside. There were about six chairs dotted around the table, but as he'd cleared a space at the one closest to him, just around the corner of the square table, you picked that one.

"How's it going?" You took a sip of your own coffee, nodding towards the laptop between you. "-or should I not ask?"

"Ugh, don't ask." Tom groaned, leaning back and bringing his leg up so his foot rested on his chair, bent knee exposed by the rips in his faded black jeans. "S'not even due 'til next week but I thought I'd just get it done and out of the way 'cause I've got work and shit to do but..."

He trailed off, shrugging.

"Not happening?"

"Not happening."

You hummed, clicking your tongue against the roof of your mouth. You knew the feeling, no stranger to complete lack of motivation yourself. Looking around at the books scattered across the table, you realised you didn't actually know what Tom studied, but it seemed like he didn't really want to talk about uni work, so instead of asking about his degree, you said:

"I didn't know you wore glasses."

Nice nonsequiteur, good one.

"Hm? Oh, yeah," Tom took the frames off and set them down on his laptop keyboard, rubbing the inner corners of his eyes with his knuckles. "Just for computer stuff, you know?"

"Oh, cool." You looked down at your cup as you brought it up to your lips. "I like them. On - on you."

Your eyes flicked over to him as you took a sip, darting back to your cup before he could catch your eye.

"Thanks."

You just smiled, hoping the general feeling of '!!!!!!!' in your head wasn't evident on your face.

"So, SU not living up to your expectations tonight?"

Shaking your head, you set your cup down before launching into an explanation of everything that had contributed to your less-than-satisfactory night. You didn't mean to go off on one, but Tom was laughing at how exasperated you were getting about tiny inconveniences, and before you knew it, you'd been rambling for God knows how long, which lead to Tom ranting about all the annoying things he'd witnessed people doing in the library that afternoon, and before long an hour had passed and the conversation had turned, as it often does with millenials, to memes.

"Wait you haven't seen that one? It's fucking hilarious, I've got it saved on my phone so I can look at it, like, daily."

You opened your bag to take out your phone, your smile freezing on your lips as a thought crossed your mind. Unzipping the inside pocket, your fingers skipped over the contents one by one - lipgloss, lash glue, gum, tampon - until your suspicions were confirmed.

"Oh fuck."

Tom hummed a question mark in response, eyebrows raised at your sudden shift in temperament.

"I haven't got my house keys," you frowned, trying to remember the last time you saw them.

"Shit - d'you reckon you dropped them in the union?"

"Nah," You shook your head as it came back to you - you were in a rush to shove your stuff into your bag before leaving for predrinks, and you distinctly remembered thinking 'I need to grab my keys from my backpack', but then Liv asked to borrow a lipstick and you immediately forgot about your keys.

"I know where they are, they're at home. It's cool I'll just text Liv and see if she's still out or what, maybe get a cab home with her."

After tapping out a quick text to Liv, you looked back to Tom, setting your phone facedown on the table. He was looking at you questioningly, glancing between you and your phone. You blinked at him uselessly, mind drawing a blank when you attempted to remember why exactly you opened your bag in the first place.

"Uh, you were gonna show me..." he trailed off, gesturing to your phone.

Uhhh duhhhhhhhh. Jesus girl, get it together.

Re-engaging your brain, you pulled up the screenshot, hoping he couldn't feel the heat radiating off your cheeks or notice the way your fingers were trembling ever so slightly as they gripped your phone. Either he didn't or he declined to comment on it, showing you a vine compilation video on his laptop instead. You ended up burrowing deeper and deeper into a meme-rabbit-hole, shifting closer to the edge of your seat with each embarrassingly loud laugh, and for a little while you forgot about your key dilemma.

"I think-" you began, interrupted by your fifth yawn in as many minutes. "I think I need to go to bed."

"Same - hey did Liv text you back?"

"Shit. Uhh-"

You checked your notifications, and sure enough there was one from Liv, received twenty-five minutes ago.

No lmao debrief tomo xxxxxx

You didn't realise Tom was reading over your shoulder until you heard a soft 'ah' in your ear. Your eyes scanned the rest of the screen in a panic, but thankfully found no incriminating evidence of your growing interest in the boy beside you, or of Liv's in his best friend. Making a slightly strangled 'hmm' sound, you tapped the phone icon at the top of the screen.

"I'll call her and see what-"

You'd barely brought the phone to your ear before a cool voice welcomed you to O2 voice mail. You knew it all too well - Liv was notorious for letting her battery die, preferring to use that last 2% on Snapchat than saving it in case one of her housemates gets locked out.

"Bollocks."

"She alright?" Tom leaned back in his seat, concern ghosting over his tired features.

"Yeah yeah, she was with a load of her friends so they've probably gone back to one of theirs to smoke or something. She'll be fine. I'm kinda fucked, though."

A beat of silence passed while you tried to come up with a solution that didn't involve you sleeping in the library, but with Madison miles away and Liv MIA, you were coming up blank.

"You can stay at mine?"

Sorry, what? You blinked at Tom, certain you had misheard him.

"If-if you want. I could sleep on the sofa or something and you could have my room."

Yep, no, that's what he said.

"Oh, I-"

"Just, um, you know, if you can't go home-"

"Would, uh, is that okay?"

"Yeah," He nodded, a soft smile in his voice. " 'course."

You bit down gently on your bottom lip, your own smile threatening to spread across your face.

"Thanks."

Your voice came out as barely more than a whisper, a squeak really. He was still so close, your shoulders almost touching where you'd been looking down at your phone together. This felt much closer though, face to face, your eyes able to count the freckles smattered across his nose and cheeks, see the indent of a chickenpox scar near his right eyebrow, another one on the left side of his nose. You didn't dare let your vision travel any further south than the bridge of his nose, not sure of what you'd do if you looked down and saw that easy smile that he wore so well.

But then again, maybe you could just sneak a glance...

Tom cleared his throat, the sound making both of you jolt back ever so slightly into your seats.

"Um, should we-"

"Yeah, yeah-"

Silence settled over you as you gathered up Tom's stuff off the table, stopping to shove your coffee cups and all his other rubbish into a bin on the way out. By the time you got to Tom's car though, conversation had started to flow again, and he gave you free rein over the music, so the short drive passed with only mild awkwardness between you.

Tom's bedroom turned out to be behind the locked door you'd seen that first night at predrinks, the mystery room on the ground floor at the front of the house. Unsure of the social protocol in situations like this, you hovered by the door as Tom turned on the lamp on his bedside table, dumping his stuff on the floor by his desk. The lamp didn't provide too much light, most of the room still shrouded in darkness, so you focused your attention on the carpet by your feet, fibres frayed where they met the skirting board.

"Do you want Super Noodles?"

Your head jerked up, a laugh spluttering past your lips because what? But then, also, yes, yes you did want Super Noodles.

"Yeah, actually."

"D'you wanna put something on TV and I'll..." he trailed off, pointing in the general direction of the kitchen.

"Sure."

You perched on the end of Tom's bed while he fiddled with his TV and PS4 that sat atop a chest of drawers opposite you, bringing up Netflix and passing you the controller.

"D'you know how to..."

"Mmhmm."

"Cool."

You flicked the edges of the shoulder buttons with your fingers, the soft clicks the only sound beyond the hum of the TV as you looked up at Tom from the edge of his bed, nodding his head slowly as he shoved his hands into the pockets of his jeans. He cleared his throat again, taking a jerky step away from you.

"Okay, uh, I'll just- yeah."

Letting out a deep breath once he'd left the room, you started to flick through the options on the screen. You eventually settled on Friends - everyone likes Friends, plus then it wasn't a whole movie or hour long episode you'd have to sit through if it got awkward. You hoped it wouldn't be awkward, things had been getting progressively less awkward between you, but this was different. You were in his room at two in the morning, sat on his bed in a rather revealing dress, more of your bare thigh in contact with the soft cotton of his sheets than you had expected when you left the house earlier that evening. That reminded you - were you going to sleep in your dress? It wasn't very comfortable so you'd really rather not, but were you going to ask him for something to wear? Were you bollocks. So, you'd resigned yourself to being uncomfortable and hoping that nothing popped out in the night when Tom returned from the kitchen, backing into the room with a bowl of noodles in each hand.

"Thanks," you gave him a shy smile as you took one of the bowls from him, the heat of the ceramic almost as hot as the flush that crept up the back of your neck when he smiled back.

"Do you want something else to wear?" Tom's eyes widened as soon as the words left his mouth, realising how they sounded. "Not that you don't look- it's just it doesn't look that comfortable, and-"

"Yes, please."

"Okay," he breathed when you cut him off, nodding. "Um..."

Setting his bowl on top of his chest of drawers, he rummaged through for something to give you. His figure was obscured by the light of the TV screen, the bright white of the Netflix logo blurring the edges of your vision. You had to blink a few times after he turned around before you could see properly again, as though you'd just looked directly into the sun.

Stop blinking so much, he's going to think you've got a twitch, or an eye infection or something.

Trying to keep your eyes open as long as possible (without looking shocked), you swapped your bowl for the t shirt and pair of blue checked pyjama bottoms he handed you.

"I'll just go, uh, get changed then."

Shutting Tom's door behind you, you darted upstairs to the bathroom. You had no idea if Harrison was in or not, but you would really rather not bump into him just then, knowing he'd be insufferable. After changing into Tom's clothes (definitely not noticing how they smelt innately comforting, fresh but still warm) you peeled off your false eyelashes, popping them into your handbag. That was about all you could do in terms of make up removal, so you just had to hope you had remembered to put on setting spray earlier and that you wouldn't wake up with panda eyes and a stained pillow case.

Tom had turned the light off and changed into a pair of joggers when you got back to his room, settled at the head of the bed atop the covers with just the glow of the TV lighting the room and reflecting off his glasses. Placing your bag and folded dress beside your heels on the floor by the door, you sat cross-legged beside him, taking the bowl he handed you with a quiet thanks. You munched your way through your noodles as the first episode played, sneaking glances at the boy beside you every now and then.

By the time the second episode started, two empty bowls were stacked on the bedside table, and you were getting sleepier and sleepier, pulling the covers up over your legs. You slipped further and further down the bed as the episode went on, your eyes growing heavier and heavier until you were almost asleep.

"I'm just gonna..." you sighed, rolling into your side and curling your legs up closer to your chest.

"I'll uh- I'll go."

The mattress dipped as Tom pushed himself up, moving to get up, but you shook your head, eyes still closed.

"Mmmno."

Tom froze, a nervous laugh stuttering from the back of his throat.

"What?"

Half-asleep, you looked up at him, sliding your hand across the mattress and under your cheek beneath the pillow.

"Stay."

You thought you heard him make a sound, but your eyes were already closing again, your mind too sleepy to comprehend anything beyond the fact that his body was warm beside yours and you didn't want him to leave. The whys and hows weren't too important just then.

The bed shifted a few more times as Tom reached for the remote to turn off the TV and set his glasses aside, letting out a low, deep breath as he lay down next to you. You were all but asleep, so you weren't sure if you imagined it, but you thought you felt his hand brush against yours as he mirrored your position, lying on his side with an arm curled up under his pillow.

Hm.

You stuck out your little finger to test, just to see - and sure enough, it bumped against his. Still half-asleep (or at least, that would be your excuse if he moved away), you lifted your finger up to lay it over his, feeling his digit flex as he hooked it around yours. That, you were pretty sure, you didn't imagine.

You really were tired, honestly so so close to being asleep, but now all you could hear was your breathing, and Tom's breathing, and the hammering of your heart in your chest, and it was all a bit much.

You opened one eye, and from the slither of light coming in around the curtains from the streetlamp outside you could just about make out one side of Tom's face - enough to know he was looking at you.

"Hi," he breathed.

"Hey."

Your eyes closed when he'd repositioned, you hadn't realised quite how close your faces were, only the width of your hands between you. Nibbling on your bottom lip, you glanced between his eyes, fixed on yours, and his lips, slightly parted.

Is he getting closer??

You tried to regulate your breathing, but he was definitely getting closer, and you could feel the warmth of his breath on your lips as you swallowed harshly.

"S-sorry you didn't get to finish your essay."

Tom chuckled softly, and your noses were almost touching, and suddenly his hand was gone from beside yours under the pillow, a finger hooked under your chin instead.

"It's fine."

Nudging the side of your nose with his, he tilted your face up and away from the pillow, the quiet 'oh' dying on your lips as he captured them between his own.

Oh, indeed.

Note

I feel like I'm asking too much but I absolutely love your matchups so-

Can I request a Make Haikyuu match up? I edited my description to make it more detailed. I hope that's fine. :DD

Appearnce and style:

I'm a straight female, 5ft and 110lbs. I have short black hair and dark brown eyes. I'm slight on the chubby side as well. I'm in between pale and light brown skinned. I'm a pure Filipino and I have prescription glasses. I've often been called a "soft girl" but I really don't have a certain styles. My clothes are often t-shirts, off-shoulders, (of multiple color and style) and any type jeans. Hoodies and jackets are a must in winter season.

Personality:

I'm often described as a chaotic motherly type of person. I love to tease others but it's not often. I can be loud and obnoxious at times but I prefer to stay quiet, with people I'm new to. But once you get to know me, I'm loud and obnoxious ish. I can also be such a flirt if I wanted too but I only reserve those skills when needed. My patience is very long and I don't get annoyed easily. Affection and words are my love language. I tend to get just a tad bit grumpy when I don't get affection. I'm a really observant person, so I'm able to pick up emotional cues, habits, and body language. I use that to check on people I care about. I try to act tough and strong so I would be a role model, since I'm the oldest child. I also tend to suppress my emotions and even fake them just so no one would be burden of me. I do share them if I trust you enough. I can also be really insecure about my abilities and looks.

I can be really talkative. Like I can go on for HOURS without end. This is especially if it's about ranting about my week or maybe when I'm talking about something I love. I try not to talk a lot, maybe that's why when I do get to talk I T A L K. I'm very optimistic with a very hidden pessimistic side. I can become the mood maker of the group and my personality is compatible with almost everyone.

Flaws and strengths:

I can be really insecure and really clingy. My insecurities tend to refer to my looks but most of the time it's on maybe people find me annoying. Not only that, I can also be moody, especially on that time of the month. I overthink things a lot. I sometimes even wonder if my friends actually are my friends. You all that trust issues (but honestly I don't think I have trust issues I just overthink things). I'm not afraid of material things or the supernatural. I'm afraid of being judged and left alone or abandoned. I hate the feeling the loneliness.

But I do give good advice, that's what alot of people tell me. My optimism and energy almost always lifts the mood up. I'm great with talking to people. May it be comforting them, persuading, I can do that. I'm also quite good at reading people. Especially if they are close to me and I've been through things alot with them.

Random facts:

I usually listen to pop or ballad but I like almostvall types of music. Songs like IDK you yet by Alexander23 or This is gospel by Panic at the disco are some of my favorite. My star sign is Cancer but I don't really believe it but I love learning about it. I'm an INFP-T (The dreamer) and my Hogwarts house is Ravenclaw! I love learning and doing new things. Science is my favorite subject, specifically Biology/Zoology. I sing and write stories as a hobby. I really enjoy debates as well!

hey hey hey~ tysm for the request! hehe, it's no problem at all! oh and btw I absolutely love your matchups too, they’re so pretty :’)) i’m sorry this took so long, school has been killing me recently...anyways,

I PAIR YOU WITH SUGAWARA~

the two of you literally fit so well, it makes me want to cry. suga was my first choice and it remained that way till the end.

Sugawara is literally one of the sweetest but at the same time chaotic character there is in the show and I feel like it fits your personality well!

Suga would be constantly complimenting you because of your insecurities and would make sure that you realize your own value.

Suga can read the room well and knows when to cheer his friends up. If you were to hide your emotions from him, he would know almost immediately and comfort you.

Sugawara tends to put others in front of him most of the time. Since you can understand people well, I feel like you would be able to help him out when he’s upset :’)

Suga would never leave you. He’d be by your side 24/7 and would be willing to listen to you rant or rant to you at any time.

If you tried to act tough around suga, he would probably baby you even more until you soften down and know that it’s okay for you to be stressed at times

PLEASE HE’S SO CHAOTIC, he’d probably panic the first time you flirt with him but around the second or third time he’d flirt back and make you feel flustered~

S C E N A R I O S

you call him at 3 am and even though it’s really late and dark outside, he shows up at your door fifteen minutes later with your favorite snack in his hands and a warm smile on his face~

the two of you cheering up the team together! suga is as usual karate chopping people in the gut while yelling “negativity begone” and you’re cheering the first years up by cracking jokes~

suga probably loves to play with your hair. he’s constantly running his fingers through it and braiding it for you~

Survey #281

“is there a method to your madness, is it all about pride? ‘cuz everyone i know, they’ve got a demon inside.”

Has anyone ever told you that you looked like a celebrity? No, just a video game character and an animated movie girl when I had black hair. What color is the pillowcase(s) on your bed? Brown. Do you have a favorite day of the week? Tuesday because it’s reset day in WoW and as a mount farmer, that means I get to try my raids for the week again to continue to be denied. :’) Have you ever been in an art show? An art show, I don’t think so. I’ve had two or three things in an art museum, though. Would you consider yourself to be well-exposed to life or sheltered? I’m pretty split down the middle, I’d say. I’ve seen far more emotional pain than I think most young adults have, but at the same time, I’ve very under-exposed to adult experiences. How high is your pain tolerance? It depends on the type of pain. I can particularly say I do NOT handle stomach pains well, though. Have you ever played the game Halo? Nah, those weren’t my type. Have you ever had to learn lines for a play/skit/movie? Only songs sung together for plays in elementary school. Never solo. Do you like your nose? … Sure? Kissing someone with facial hair, do you mind? I don’t care. Would you ever like to be a stunt person? I’m fucking dumb, I read this and thought “you mean little people?” until I read the last person’s answer lmaooo. Anyway, no. I’m not ballsy enough for that shit. Are you a pyromaniac? I find fire pretty, but it still can scare me if I’m too close to it. Are you one of those people who listen to songs on repeat? 110%, it’s literally what I’m doing now lmao. Can any of your friends sing very well? SARA. Would you ever enter any kind of pageant? No, no, no, no. I really don’t support pageants of any type I can think of, beauty in particular. What a way to scream “HEY THEY’RE BETTER THAN YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!”, again, especially in beauty pageants. That fucks people up. What a way to start things like self-loathing, eating disorders, body dysphoria, etc. Do you have piano fingers? Mom has always told me that, “like Grammy.” Have you ever slept on a beach? YIKES, no. I ain’t fuckin’ with the tides going in and out or just a massive wave. I’d also feel WAY too vulnerable. Would you like to be taller? I’m cool with my current height. Are you a fan of piercings on the opposite sex? I just like piercings in general. Have you ever been attacked by an animal? No, besides play getting too rough. Is there a movie that makes you cry every single time you watch it? It’s easy to do that lol. The Notebook in particular will 100% make me tear up. What's your opinion on Johnny Depp? He’s an incredibly talented actor that I find very attractive, but I don’t know him as a person. Can you speak in different accents? Just British and southern. Who was the last person you mocked/mimicked? My nephew, playfully of course. If you write, isn't writer's block the most horrible thing? THE ABSOLUTE WORST. What size shirt do you normally wear? Ugggghhh generally 2XL, I think. It can be one size smaller or one size larger depending on the shirt. Has anyone ever aimed a gun at you? Yikes, no. Have you ever written a song? Just poems. Do you believe there is life on other planets? It’s possible, but I don’t particularly lean a certain way, I think. The universe is just… infinite, you know? But also the circumstances that life rose within Earth were so remarkably perfect to support it that I don’t entirely know if it’s been duplicated elsewhere. When was the last time you fell? Around two weeks ago? I have extremely low blood pressure naturally but also amplified by medications’ side effects, and I got out of bed too fast when I woke up. Hurt my knees pretty bad and barely missed my head hitting the couch. Do you have any sort of debt? I do NOT want to think about this. Is there a specific time period that interests you? The era of dinosaurs of course, as well as the Renaissance, just to name a couple. Do any of your friends own an expensive car? *shrugs* Have you ever been on a train? No. Have you ever been in a parade? No. Are you, or anyone you know, an atheist? I know plenty. Have you ever sent a celebrity fan mail? No. Have you ever been in a musical? No. Is there a friend's family that makes you feel like you're family too? Yeah, Sara’s. Even though I’ve only been with them not that long of a time, they’re wonderful and made me feel so welcome. Do you ever have a fear of getting close to new people? Boy, do I!!!!! It’s funny though, because at the same time, I want to be close with people; I want to rush to the point I have a close friend. It’s weird. What is the worst things about work? N/A And the best? N/A Do you like to sleep in? Not really, honestly. I feel groggy and lazier than I naturally am lmao. Do you like to be an early bird? Well I’m in my best mood in the morning, but I don’t like waking up early. However, I’ve been planning a morning routine to adopt once we move that involves waking up at like 7 or so, so we’ll see how much I enjoy mornings then. But oh boy do I have a habit of saying I’ll do something and then not doing it, so… What is something you notice you just don't watch? History stuff and usually action. Last thing that bothered you even if just a little bit? Something Miss Tobey said to me a few days ago. Last thing that seemed a blessing from above? I don’t believe in supernatural “blessings,” but I’ll bite. The thing that made me happiest recently was uhhhh… I actually don’t know. Nothing that REALLY felt “blessing-ish.” Do you usually drink diet or regular soda? Regular; I can’t do diet. It tends to taste horrible but more importantly the artificial sweetener gives me a wicked headache. Are you on a diet? Not a diet, no. I’m more so just trying to make it a habit to simply eat better and not snack. Someone you highly respect who is not in your family? Sara’s dad. Did you say 'goodnight' to anyone last night? I don’t think I did. Does anyone ever comment on the appearance of your handwriting? People tend to point out it’s really nice. Have you looked at anyone's Facebook profile lately? Whose? Nah. Did you have a cake for your last birthday? What kind? Yeah, red velvet. Can you recall the first horror film you ever watched? How old were you? I actually don’t think I can. Maybe Paranormal Activity? Or The Blair Witch Project? When’s the last time that you mailed a letter or a package to someone, and who was it to? Sara’s bday gift I think. The last book that you checked out from the library? I haven’t done that in years. What was your pet’s last vet visit concerning? Roman got neutered, and the only time I took Venus to the vet was when I first got her and she refused food for almost a year. Changed the tactic of warming the mouse up and she was more than happy to snag it. Which animals do you tend to go check out first at the pet store? The reptiles, because they’re closest and also my favorite section. Last medication or item that you picked out from the drugstore? Nicole picked up a bunch of my prescriptions that needed refilling. Do you usually have a big list or a small list when you go to the grocery store? I don’t do the shopping here, so it’s not my choice. How much was the last check you deposited? How about the last amount that you took out? I have no clue. Have you ever been admitted into the emergency room? For what? Being suicidal and then a suicide attempt. Have you ever been arrested before? Ridden in the back of a police car? No to the first, but yes to the second because that’s just how you’re transported from the ER to the psych hospital here. Have you ever been a victim of a house fire? Thank God no. When did you graduate high school? 2014. How much gas can fit in your gas tank? N/A Does your vehicle break down a lot? N/A What’s the longest you’ve ever had to wait before being seated at a sit-down restaurant? I want to say at LEAST 45 minutes once. Can’t remember why it was so busy, though. Have you ever had a cavity before? How about a root canal? A tooth pulled? Braces? I’ve had cavities and braces, but thank Christ no root canals, and I’ve never had to have a tooth pulled by the dentist, either. Which art forms do you appreciate the most? Man, you can’t ask this to someone who enjoys art so deeply. Like I really don’t know what I enjoy *most*. Music can give me chills, poetry can be so rich and, well, poetic, and traditional artwork strikes awe and makes you wonder how they do it. I just adore art. What is your favorite zoo animal that you would like to set free? To start, I have very mixed feelings about zoos, but I guess I am *mostly* in favor of humane, adequately providing captivity to a certain degree as this allows for conservation of especially endangered species, and zoos also make it easier to study and understand the silent voices of those we share the earth with. As well, they offer a safe environment to expose the fearful to all sorts of animals, and I feel it is very, very important for humans as the alpha species to care for and understand (as best our language barriers allow) our wonderful neighbors. That being said, I definitely believe that a lot of zoos under-provide for their animals, and this is horribly heartbreaking so that I absolutely disagree with their “right” to own and display animals, but for this specific question, I am going to use my state’s zoo as the standard here. Ashboro, imo is pretty damn great and generous to their animals (you should see the miles of land the elephants, bison, antelope, and rhinos have!), but the exhibit that comes to mind first when mentioning animals I’d like to set free iiiis… you know, I don’t know. I was going to say the polar bears since it can get STUPID hot here in the summer and their abode doesn’t have a great amount of ice that survives the sun, but at the same time I’d be very wary about returning a polar bear home for… obvious reasons. I say “I don’t know” because I’m not gonna pretend to know what ample space is for so many different kinds of animals. Damn, now I really wanna go there. Wow this was a long answer to a p simple question lmao. Favorite kind of fish? I don’t have a distinctly “favorite” fish, really. I don’t know enough of ‘em, but I can say I really like clownfish and angelfish. What kinds of museum artifacts fascinate you? Whew, as someone who took Art History just last year in school, ancient art pieces of all sorts! It is so, so fascinating, watching the evolution of art and to see how the urge to just create extends so, so far back into history. Have you ever gone to court before? For a disability case, yes. Also to convince a judge that I didn’t need to stay in a mental hospital for I think the original plan was around six months. What is the last song that you danced to? Ha ha I watching Hotel Transylvania with my niece and nephew and did the macarena with ‘em. What’s your favorite alcoholic drink? Margaritas or sangrias. Is there anyone that you’ve visited in jail? No. Are you more likely to fly in an airplane, or pick people up/drop them off at the airport? Historically, pick people up. Which sporting event would you be most likely to sit through? Dance competitions. Favorite flavor of ice cream? Cone or dish? Any sprinkles? My favorite Basic Bitch flavor is vanilla, just with chocolate syrup. Cone or dish just depends on what I’m feelin’, really. I hate sprinkles on anything; the texture throws me off. Have you ever cut your own hair? No. What do you eat most frequently? Uggghhhh some form of bread, probably. Are you a fan of video games? Yeah, but not as much as I used to be. What's your favorite color combination? Idk really, I like a lot. I will say though that orange and black excites me bc Halloween Vibes. Did you share a locker at school? No. What's one sport you could never play? Wrestling, ew. Have you ever sung karaoke? Oh god no. What is the oldest age you think should wear makeup? lmao BRO tell me this a joke How old were you when you went on your first date? Idr, sometime in the 7th grade, if group dates in middle school even count? lol Has anyone besides your family seen you naked? Yeah. If so, who? An ex and probably doctors at some point? Did your parents sign you up for anything you hated as a child? Sunday school, really. Have you purchased any cool objects from a foreign country? Considering I’ve never left the country, no. Are you on a laptop or a desktop computer right now? I only have a laptop. Do you remember anyone's number by heart? No, but I seriously need to memorize my mom’s. Do you live above, below, or on the Equator? Above. Do you know how to use Photoshop? I know how to do a decent number of things, but I’m definitely no expert. Where was your first job? I was a sales associate at GameStop. What's the best place you have ever eaten? Olive Garden is fucking fantastic, fite me about it. Do you own a hair straightener? No, I don’t need one. Are you barefoot right now? I always am at home unless it’s cold enough to need slippers. Are you subscribed to any magazine? Nah. Do you need AC right now? No; it’s actually pretty cold inside rn. Do more people call you by a nickname or your first name? It’s just a derivative of my first name; “Britt.” But I guess that classifies as a nickname. Name something you're proud of. Deciding to actually *try* to move on and making massive progress through it with That Person. Lately I’ve wondered if I truly have, though. My PTSD has been really bad of the late. Does any accent annoy you? I can’t say it “annoys” me, given you can’t really control your accent, but I do find it difficult to understand extremely southern accents, even as a local. Do you take vitamins? This just reminded me I’ve been out of my Vitamin D prescription for a while… oops. I’m supposed to take it for my legs. When was the last time you took aspirin or some other pain reliever? Yesterday, actually. I had a pretty bad headache. When was the last time you deeply regretted something? God, last night, I was remembering and accepting some things. Lemme just say I regret the everloving fuck out of the subject. What is something that you regularly wear that makes you stand out? Besides my lip ring, nothing in particular. Do you prefer small birthday parties or big ones? Small. I just don’t like big gatherings in general. What song are you listening to now? “Creatures X: To The Grave” by Motionless In White. What was the most traumatic experience of your life? The breakup w/ Jason. I’ve told the story enough in surveys and I don’t wanna recite it again. Who was your childhood best friend? Brianna. Are you still friends now? On Facebook, anyway, but we don’t talk. If not, why? We just drifted apart. What is one career you don't think you could do no matter how much it paid? Butcher. No fucking way. Have you ever edited Wikipedia? No. Have you ever edited any other wiki? Oh yeah; I’m an admin at the Silent Hill wiki and have invested hours upon hours upon hours helping out there for years. I’m also a content moderator at the Team Ico wiki, and I’ve also assisted a lot at the meerkats wiki because it is a fucking grammatical and formatting catastrophe. I think that’s it? Wait no, I did a few fixes on the Dragons of Atlantis wiki when it was still at the Kabam website, too. Is there a website [besides social networking] that you check almost daily? Yeah, a few. Do you get scared when you know some virus or sickness is being passed? I wouldn’t say I get scared, no. Just more aware and cautious. What’s the worst illness you’ve had? I’ve had a fucking wicked stomach virus before. (TMI alert?) I would not stop puking to the point it was agonizing to the point of tears because my muscles were so exhausted. Which do you prefer: M&M's, Skittles, or Reese's Pieces? BITCH can I choose all???? But in almost any chocolate-related case, I will choose a Reese’s product. Where on your body would you never get a tattoo? I don’t plan on getting a face tattoo, or at least a big one. Maybe something small and cute. OH YEAH EW absolutely never getting my sclera tattooed. That looks painful as a motherfucker. Honestly, have you ever stuck gum under a table or desk? No, that shit is disgusting. If your parents could read your thoughts, would you be in trouble? Not usually. Mom might be mad sometimes when I’m angry at her. Have you ever egged somebody's house or car? No, that’s childish as shit. My childhood house was egged once, so it pisses me off especially. Do you like licorice? UGH no, that shit is disgusting. Did anybody ever read bedtime stories to you when you were younger? My mom did. Which natural disaster do you find the most terrifying? Tornadoes or earthquakes. Do you have a favorite Johnny Depp movie? What is it? Alice in Wonderland. If I gave you a Yo-Yo right now, could you do any tricks? Nope.

Gonna do a before and after of one of the first surveys I took when I was FOURTEEN. Fucking wild that I’ve been doing this for nearly a decade. Kinda my way of celebrating the fact that I’ve just been reunited with my old blog, which Tumblr has apparently changed the URL of. Baffled by the move but still stoked, and @a-zebra-is-a-striped-horse is absolutely the coolest person for being able to find it haha. Let’s gooooo 1. Are you registered to vote? No. I still have 3 years to go. < That’s so precious. I’ve been a voter for four years now. I registered the second I turned 18 and I remember being very excited to make it to the presidential elections because only a handful of people from my high school batch were 18 by the time of the elections. 2. When days go by, do you cross them off on the calendar? Only when I’m counting down for something. < This still sounds like something I would do, but I don’t really get to anymore because I have digital calendars on my phone and laptop now. 3. Are you currently counting down to something? If so, what? Summer vacation! 4 days left! < Again, so cute. There’s no countdown that exists because I honestly don’t know when it will be okay enough to go out like normal again, but I am waiting for Covid to go away or at least for a vaccine to be available.

No #4? 5. Ever got injured at work? What happened? Nope. < I sprained my ankle at one of the parking lots in school, while walking to my car. Worst thing was it happened in front of an ongoing rally, and I heard their chants slightly falter when they saw me fall. I tried to play it cool, but my foot clearly felt fucked and someone had to hold my arm as I hopped to my car.

6. What color is your roof? Brown. < Stop pretending like you have a roof, Robyn. The house has always had a rooftop.

7. Do you use MySpace or Facebook more? Neither. < I was still far too young when MySpace peaked so I never did get to participate in its glory days. I definitely use Facebook a lot more, then and now. 8. Last time you sharpened a pencil? When I took a diagnostic test last Monday. < Sometime in 2019 when I was still heavily into coloring and I bought several coloring books and a pack of coloring pencils. I loved coloring and wish I kept it up, but it was just a bit of a hassle for me to sharpen every ten minutes or so. 9. List all the people in your phone under T: Zero, zilch, nada. No phone. < A high school batchmade named Dani, a college colleague named Kate, and a couple of aunts and uncles whose contacts start with Tito and Tita. 10. How old were you when you got into text messaging? I once had a super obsessive text problem when I was 11, I think? < That would be the first time I got hooked with texting, but I got my first phone when I was 7 and was already texting by then. Mostly my parents and grandpa, but still. 11. Do you pay rent to your parents? No. < No. They’ve already told me they won’t pressure me to do so either, but out of gratefulness for taking care of me for 20+ years I have absolutely no problems covering some of the bills when the time comes. 12. What do you think of Obama’s new healthcare bill? I don’t know a lot about it. < Honestly, still same. That’s another country’s politics altogether and we have enough issues in our own nation as it is. I do pay attention to US issues that are more universal like LGBT issues, police brutality against black people, Trump as a person...but not the more in-depth ones like healthcare or student debt. 13. How many icons are on your desktop? 34. < Exactly half of that. 14. Do you spit or swallow? Get outta here!!! < Still can’t relate. 15. Ever wrote something on a bathroom wall? Nope. < Eugh no, public bathrooms are so nasty. I don’t usually touch anything in them other than the faucet. I’ve written on other things though, like the desks in school. 16. What’s your definition of a slut? Uh. < Someone who often has casual sex with a lot of people, is how I understand it. 17. If you use the word “slut”, do you apply it to men who do the same thing as what you listed above? Nah. < I don’t really use the word. 18. Do you dye eggs for Easter? I did once, in a children’s party. < Yeah, just that one time at my second cousins’ place when they were in the mood to paint on eggs and invited me and my siblings. 19. What did you do on the first day of spring? Never experienced spring. < We don’t have spring. 23. Are you currently crushing on anyone? No. < Yes. 24. What color hair did the last person you kissed have? NKSB. < LOOOOOOOOOL I spent like two minutes puzzling over this like who tf is NKSB??? Eventually realized this just meant ‘Never Kissed Since Birth’ oh my god 14 year old Robyn you were SO uncool. Anyway, her hair is black. 25. Do you stand up to say the pledge in school? We don’t have a school pledge, but we do recite our country’s pledge and yes, we stand up every time we say it. < Not anymore in university. Everyone just kinda does their own thing in college and we’re never gathered as one student body for anything, except for graduation. 26. Do you like your eye color? God no. It’s so boring. < I mean yeah it is a bit boring, but we kinda have no choice. Unless you go to West Asia which is nearing Europe as it is, nearly all Asians have brown eyes and black hair. 27. What brand of orange juice did you last drink? Zesto. < That’s the only brand of orange juice I’m okay with drinking, even eight years later. 28. Pens or pencils? Pens. < Still feel the same. 29. Last skirt you wore and why? My school skirt, because I have to go to school. < Omfg again, this is so precious. The last one I wore was my denim skirt, but it’s also been a while since I wore that because one of its buttons has since popped out and I never got around to having it fixed, leaving me with no skirts. 30. Last time you wore heels, what kind were they? A prom I went to. I actually have no idea what kind of heels they are so I’m just gonna say old-women heels. < They were stilettos, you dumbass. I also wore a pair of stilettos the last time I wore heels. They’re my favorite kind, so. 31. Shoes you wear the most? My Keds. < My pair of Onitsuka Tiger sneakers. . 32. Favorite quote at the moment? “YOU DUMB BITCH! I’M NOT HOLDING A MICROPHONE! ARE YOU FUCKING STUPID?” - CM Punk < Holy crap, I do not remember this quote at all and had to look it up on YouTube and – no regrets. Watching it made so many memories come rushing back lmao that clip is hilarious; Punk is the greatest. Right now I don’t really have a favorite quote. 33. What was the last magazine article you read about? I forgot. < It’s from the website version of the magazine, but the last article I read covered a viral Facebook post wherein someone had photoshopped the faces of The Big Bang Theory boys onto the traditional graduation photos of my university out of boredom. Article is here for anyone who wants to see how well the pictures turned out lol. 34. What do you think about communism? I don’t know enough about it. < I completely support the progressive youth orgs, especially the ones in my university, that are aligned with communist, socialist, and Marxist ideals. They speak the truth more than any other orgs, so I don’t shy away from defending them or promoting their ideals, especially on social media, even if it puts me in danger. 35. Are you planning on going to college? If so, which one? Of course. I want to study in Ateneo. < CAN WE CANCEL 14 YEAR OLD ROBYN?????? What a disappointment omg. You were always meant to be in UP, you weirdo. 22 year old me takes that appalling statement back lol I can’t even begin to imagine spending my college years in Ateneo. 36. What’s your favorite flower? Ugh I hate flowers. < Peonies and roses. 37. What’s the nearest beach? I think it’s like…600 km away + a 2 hour boat ride. < No it is not. There’s a beach I come back to in Nasugbu and that’s only 100 km away. 38. Ever been to Florida? Nope. < Still nope. 39. How old is your brother’s best friend? He’s probably 9 as my brother’s 9. < I don’t know if he has one and I don’t really care anymore. 40. What type of car did you ride in last? A Kia van. < Sksksksks this was referring to the school bus I used to ride omg :( I was last in our Vitara, when I had to go to the hospital to get some tests done back when I still had a pesky fever. 42. Are you excited for summer 2013? Fuck yeah. < I honestly don’t remember how it ultimately went, but apparently I was excited for it so that answers the question. 43. What class were your parents (ex. class of ‘75)? They’re the same age so batch ‘89. < There we go. 44. Are you in debt right now? For what? No. < Kinda-ish? I promised my sister I’d pay her for helping me out with iMovie (I wanted to make Gab a video for her birthday, but had never done it before), but I haven’t had the chance to do it since I only have big bills at the moment. She’s asking for ₱200 but I only have ₱1000s in my wallet, so I can’t pay her for now. 45. If you’re old enough, do you have a credit card? If you’re not old enough, do you want one when you’re older? I definitely want one. < Yep, still want one. Though I’ll need a crash course on how to use it because my parents never really taught me how cards work. 46. What color is your phone? No phone. < Apple calls it space gray but it’s really just black. 47. Have you ever had someone read a text message they weren’t supposed to see? Yes. < Yes. That person was me, and I accidentally read a text from my dad meant for only my mom when I was 5 because I had stubborn fingers that would click on anything. 48. What’s the minimum age you think someone should have a cell phone at? 10. < Holy cow, that’s a nope for me. I’d say 12 or 13. 49. Would you ever work night crew? Sure. < Yes. I’ve seen my girlfriend’s mom do it and honestly I find it pretty badass, especially because while everyone is stuck in traffic trying to get to work by 9 AM, she’s cruising down the highway on the opposite lane with no problem, to be home by 9 hahaha. 50. How old is the last person you texted? 41. < 22.

Little Miss CEO Part 2

Little Miss CEO - Part 3

Karen didn’t get the chance to grill me until Thursday night, that’s how long the week was. I was trying to make sure I had all my work done so by the weekend I wouldn’t need to do anything, depending on if I get drunk, or not I would at least have time to myself.

“Ok, so. You told me you’ve got an official date tomorrow night. But you haven’t told me how it came to that. Literally, the last time I saw the two of you together, you were ready to fight him, and you’re rarely ready to fight someone”

“Yeah, then he walked into my office Monday morning, changes his ways. I mean, I was wary of him when he came into my office a few days ago. Honestly, thought he stood me up when he was nearly twenty minutes late, but then I don’t know, because I didn’t have any expectations, I think we really clicked”

“Does that mean that personality is also on there? Because I’m pretty sure that means he’s ticking all the boxes”

I narrowed my eyes at her, “Shut up” I threw something at her and she just laughed,

“You know, you need to be open to relationships right?” She started calmly, “Maybe this is the change you need. I mean you’ve moved past everything that happened, I mean you’ve made something amazing of yourself and you’re in a good place right now. What’s stopping you?”

“I... I don’t know. I found you and you made me realise that sure not all friends are snakes. I mean I felt like I had to build my relationships up from the ground all over again. But you made that so much easier, everyone at work made it easier. And I know my siblings are fine, I just feel so happy and like everything is perfect, I feel like I don’t want to move things on in case they don’t work out. You know what I get like. When I like someone I like them a lot. Sure I’m not obsessive but I, well I wear my heart on my sleeve and I hate it”

“It's not a bad thing Y/N. Just take... take a chance. And I know that you are, by going on the date, but I know you, you’ll have your walls up. You’ll joke in a way to show you haven’t got romantic feels. Just... be yourself. I promise you if he hurts you in a way where it’s not mutual. I’ll let you sort him out”

I snorted at that, “I... I want to take it slow even if something does happen out of it. I mean I told him about the shit that happened. I mean that got rid of any toxic friends I had.”

“Yeah, and now your ex-best friend works as one of your sister's nurses. Your sister is the senior surgeon right?”

I grinned, “My sister is a senior surgeon, and one of my brothers is a lawyer in Philly the other working in the CIA. They’re doing well, especially since the twins were a handful”

“Good, and so are you. So you should let yourself have fun. All your main responsibilities are looking after themselves and their families now, why not you?”

I took what she said in. It’s true. My siblings, I raised during my teenage life, and early twenties. My brother that’s a lawyer has a kid, he joined the Marines as soon as he left school, then got into Columbia at 22, graduated and got accepted to a top law firm and has worked his way up. Using what my parents left for them got them through college now my sister, a prodigy, is living her best life doing what she enjoys, saving lives. My brothers the same.

I used what I could from my own savings while I was working two jobs at once, and what was left of my parents will, to invest in my company. And I did. I got past the shit I was put through, got me some real friends, got me, my family. Got me my own business. Now going to go get me, a life.

“I just fucking realised, I’m going on a date with your man’s best friend. How long you been setting this up for?” I asked her.

“Oh you know... we thought it crashed and burned last Friday. Imagine our surprise when we found out that he walks into your office. And somehow despite us both telling each of you to lay off of work. It’s what bought you two together”

I shook my head, “You can say this again after the date”

The date came around so much quicker than I thought. It was 6pm on Friday, I had just finished up my paperwork. Locked up my office and decided I’m not coming back this weekend. I can do what I need to at home.

It took nearly an hour to get back home, I mean come on rush hour traffic in New York City on a Friday night. It was tragic. But at 10 past 7 I realised, I had yet to shower, do my hair, my makeup, and choose an outfit. And I can’t even do that when I don’t have a deadline.

I started with my shower. And as soon as I had finished I wrapped my hair in my towel and walked into my wardrobe. Having such a good job, one of the first things I had done was get a new apartment with Karen. We have an above average apartment. And I put that much down for the deposit that we pay basically the same amount we did before but in a nicer place, a much nicer place.

I chose my outfit, it was a plain black jumpsuit that was comfortable and complimented my figure. I then dried my hair and let it fall naturally. I put on some makeup, I wasn’t over the top, but enough.

“Karen” I called walking out of my room. She was at the kitchen island pouring some wine in a few glasses and Frank was on the couch.

He looked at me as did Karen, “You’re running a little late aren’t you?” Frank asked looking at his watch, “How long till my boy gets here?”

I snorted at that, “Like you don’t know”

“Yeah, he should be here in the next few minutes. It’s nearly 8 right?”

I rolled my eyes, “You both know that as well. I’m not even nearly ready. But Karen, do I look alright?” I asked her.

She smiled, “You look good. I promise you. When was the last time you had a date”

“Fuck knows if I’m being real right now.”

“It’ll be fine. Billy ain’t the twat he was last week alright”

“I’m taking your work on that Castle. Same for you Karen.” I smirked at her.

She grinned, “What shoes you wearing?”

“Some heels. You think it’ll be ok?” I asked. I had some simple black heels in my mind.

“Go put them on, also your eyeliner... it looks a little smudged on your right eye”

I grimaced and walked to the closest mirror, “you’re full of shit Karen” I said seeing my just about perfect eyeliner. Well perfect for me.

She laughed and before she could say anything there was a knock at the door.

The other two looked at one another and before I could even move to answer the door Frank had jumped over my couch and ran to my door.

“For fuck's sake” I groaned,

“You shh, and go finish getting ready?” Karen said sending me away.

I grimaced and walked away to my room grabbing my shoes and bag. I heard Frank answering to Billy,

“The fuck are you doing here?” Billy asked Frank,

“Y/N is like my sister Bill. Why wouldn’t I be here? And where are her flowers Bill? Thought you would be a gent”

I didn’t hear Billys reply, but I walked out there all ready to leave.

“Hey” I smiled at him, both Billy and Frank were stood at the door, “I’m good to go” I said to Billy.

“Nah, lets bring him inside for a little while. You guys aren’t in a rush are you?”

“You don’t even live here Frank. And you're inviting him into my place?” I asked with a laugh, “Also, aren’t you supposed to be his best friend.”

“Yeah... but c’mon, I’m trying to look out for ya, you know”

“I know, and I appreciate it. Thank you”

He grinned, “You kids have fun now.”

I rose my eyebrows but walked past Frank and towards Billy.

He smiled once he saw me, and both of us left.

“You look really good by the way.” He smiled at me,

“Thank you, so do you”

He snorted at that, “I had to change it up again because I wear suits to much”

I laughed at that, he was wearing a polo top, with some jeans and he looked really good his arms were just... amazing.

We walked down to his car and in his car he had some flowers, “For you. Sorry I didn’t give them to you up there. I know what Frank is like and knew he would be there”

I let out a small laugh, “They’re beautiful, thank you. And you really predicted Frank would be there?”

“Yeah, I know him too well for him not to take the opportunity when he has it” He said once he opened the door for me. I got in the car and he went around getting into the driver’s side.

“I didn’t realise he was there only minutes before you got there. I literally got ready in like 50 minutes. That’s an extreme sport”

He laughed, “Damn, you’re making me look bad. I had to leave work early because I was panicking. Then I had no clue what I should wear, how I looked. Then all I saw were the scars, and I didn’t know what type of food you would like, that’s when I called Frank who asked Karen, and well, I think I got stuff sorted. I think”

I smiled across at him, “I thought I was nervous, but then my nervous means avoiding everything until it gets to the thing I’ve been nervous about. But anyway, where we going?”

“We’re going to a... dive bar?” he asked looking at me.

I rose my eyebrows, “Ok cool, a repeat of a few days ago then yeah?”

He grinned and shook his head, “Nah, I was messing. We’re going to some up class restaurant that’s like 30 floors high. A nice rooftop restaurant. Got the lights of the city. Apparently, you’ve been wanting to go there for a while?”

“Wow. How do you get this organised in one afternoon?”

“Well, a chef that has catered past events for me, he knows all the good chefs in the city, asked if he knew the head chef at this place, he does and well it worked some form of magic apparently”

“Wow. I’m impressed Russo”

“Good. I feel like its difficult to impress a girl like you”

My jaw dropped, “A girl like me? How?” I asked.

“Because most girls get impressed at money. You don’t roll that way because you make money. I mean, I could most likely take you to McDonald's and you’d be happy, you were so quick to accept the dive bar”

“Oh hell yeah, just because I’m a PT, get me a good burger and we’ll be best friends”

He laughed at that, “Damn, this place better serve the best burgers you’ve ever had then”

I smiled across at him, “Awhh you wanna be my best friend if you wanna get me the best burger huh?”

He laughed, “Don’t know how Frank would feel about that. Same goes for Karen”

“Lets be real, how would I feel about it? I mean you’ve proven you’re not as obnoxious as I thought you were, I mean you managed to get me on a date, after being an obnoxious prick”

He laughed at that, “It took a bit of hard work. But it was worth it”

“Damn right it better be worth it, my time is valuable Russo” I joked.

He laughed and we soon got there, it was beautiful, I didn’t feel over or underdressed. It was a casual place, an over-nice casual place that looked like an Instagram hotspot.

We were seated as he already made a reservation whereas most people had to book exactly two weeks in advance and well those advance bookings go like wildfire.

We were both seated along the balcony and something nothing beats the way your home city looks at sunset.

Both Billy and I spoke and laughed for ages getting to know one another. It wasn’t every day that someone puts so much effort into a date especially since this time last week we were ready to kill one another.

Flowers. He got me flowers. The Monday after probably the most amazing, (Don’t tell Karen) but an amazing date and he got me flowers. Friday night we were there for hours, we moved from the dining area to the bar, we stayed at the bar till we were both too drunk to do anything, he called someone who works for him to get his car and the both of us took a taxi back to our places. I didn’t go to his or stay at his because I’m a lady, but when I’m drunk I’m loud as fuck, both Karen and Frank were at home. I woke them both up, had to act serious. Had to somehow get to my room, and well despite suffering a hangover the following day, and teasing from Frank and Karen. It was worth it.

But now, Monday morning back at work, my receptionist comes into my office with flowers and a note.

“Um, these are for you. From Bill Russo at Anvil?” She asked with a sly smirk on her face.

I blushed bright red at that, “Wow, ok. Wow” I said taking them off of her. There was a cute message with the flowers and I just grinned like a fool.

“So I couldn’t help but notice. They’re some nice flowers” She said with a shit eating grin.

“Shut up, they’re so cute”

“Although when I left him in here last week you two looked like you were ready to kill one another”

I shrugged, “That was then, this is now”

She snorted at that, “Uh huh. So how was your date? Did you go on a date or is he still trying to woo you?”

“So last week after work, we met up. Just got to know one another and set our differences aside. He then asks me on a date for Friday, takes me to the Rooftop bar, and it was such a nice night. We really hit it off, and his best friend is also dating my best friend. And they teased me, him, us so much. And we’ve been talking all weekend and now, he thinks it's acceptable to be really cute and send me flowers? Why is that allowed?”

“Maybe he like, likes you” She sang

“Yeah well, maybe I like, like him” I bit back, “Ew no. I don’t like feeling like this shit. Why did he do this”

“Hah, you have to deal with feelings” she scoffed out.

I grimaced, I did have to deal with feelings and I didn’t like it. But I do like it. A lot.

I sent Karen a snap of the flowers because she had to know, if she didn’t know then well there would be trouble.

She told me how cute they are, and then I messaged Billy saying thank you to which he replied with a message about me liking them. But we once again spoke all day.

It went on like this for a few weeks. We went on a few dates, they were great but I was also getting some feelings. I really don’t know how to feel about that.

But the way our dynamics changed from when we first met amazes me because he seems like a different person. And it’s not the way in which he was a prick when we first met. Although he was I assumed he was like that towards everyone and anyone when he first meets them. Instead he had his barriers up in front of someone new. He explained to me how he doesn’t like to show himself to others. I understood this, and felt the same, yet we were kicking down one another's barriers, and let me tell you, thinking back to that Friday night, has made such a difference.

this is an ask based thingy but im really in the mood to infodump so im just gonna answer them all under the cut !

Favorite video game?

starting off with the absolute hardest question huh? i can’t possibly name ONE favorite game of mine because i adore my favorites for many different reasons. my overall favorite video game is ffxv or botw. ffxv because it has brought me so much joy for such a long time, and because i have such a connection with the characters. botw because i was actually in the fandom when it first got announced in 2016 so i got to be there when the hype was at an all time high– and finally being able to play the game after waiting for so long was an unforgettable experience. i have more favorite games but ill talk more about them in the ‘’special place in ur heart’’ question.

First console you owned?

my first console wasn’t a console. my friend and i used to play on her nintendo dsi all the time and at one point tiny little me reeeally wanted one of my own so i saved up and got one in [redacted] when i was 7. my first actual console was a wii though, we got that around the same time.

A game that holds a special place in your heart?

ffxv and botw mean the absolute world to me, but super mario galaxy and skyward sword are very important to me too. skyward sword is the game that got me into zelda which got me into anime which got me into final fantasy etc etc etc. super mario galaxy was the first non-mini game collection and more adventure story-ish game i played. i was so proud when i beat it for the first time and mario was my first ever ‘’fandom’’ :’)

Favorite video game character?

bro. i cant pick just one so i’ll choose one per game : prompto, ryuji and link. they were all my comfort characters at some point and i projected like crazy onto them. this doesnt mean that i wouldnt absolutely die for noct or zelda.

Least favorite video game character?

i dont think theres anyone i distinctly dislike? i always talk about hating ardyn but that’s because he’s just a salty bitch. as a character i think he’s a great villain and i rly love him. i honestly always end up liking everyone somehow, maybe there is someone i just forgot about but i cant remember at all.

Favorite genre?

adventure games, or action rpgs.

Video game character you’ve had a crush on?

every character ever, but i distinctly remember the moment i fell in love with prompto sjghfkshd i was watching a playthrough of xv in december 2016 because i didnt have a ps4, and the guy got to the scene in galdin quay where the bros learn insomnia fell. i had watched about 6 hours of the game by that time and wasn’t particularly interested in the characters but not uninterested enough to drop it. i hadnt even gotten a good look at the characters faces yet, so when the camera zoomed in on prompto when he said ‘’might not be save for us here!’’ i noticed he had freckles. oh god. oh fuck. oh my god hes fucking cute. oh my god better watch 30 hours of this game now

First video game you remember playing?

wayyy before i got my own gaming systems, my then-best friend had a gamecube in her attic. i was around 5 or 6 at the time. whenever i was over at her house and we didnt know what to do, she’d sometimes propose to play ‘’mario kart’’. important is that we are dutch, and i was a literal child. i thought mario KART meant it was a fucking card game, so i always declined whenever she asked. on one fateful day, i finally gave in and was pleasantly surprised it was in fact not a card game, but a viddy game. so we played mario kart double dash. (…i had never played a video game in my life besides browser flash games and was Very Very bad)

Age you started gaming?

so i played my first video game that i didnt own when i was about 5 or 6. then i got my first supply of games at age 7/8, but i dont really consider that time to be when i started ‘’gaming’’. i’d say that was when i started mario galaxy, so i’ve been playing video games for real (ie. story adventure games with boss battles) for about 6 years now.

Hardest video game you’ve played?

this is gonna sound stupid, but the witcher 3. there’s like 7 difficulties and i played on the EASIEST and still had a hard time, i just couldnt get used to the combat. i had the same problem with assassin’s creed syndicate, but after about 10 hours i actually knew what i was doing, and ive played the witcher longer than that and still am clueless. this is kind of an unpopular opinion but i dont particularly like that game

Video game you’ve spent the most time on?

i guess i am what you’d call a casual gamer; i really like video games but during a normal school week i only game for like 2-6 hours. most of the time i dont play for like 2 weeks if im busy. gaming has kind of taken over my life not because i play so much but because i get so emotionally invested lol i’m currently on summer break and even now im not playing a lot because of exhaustion and executive dysfunction. this derailed slightly but the game i’ve played the most despite my casual gamer status is …. … …. ffxv. surprise, right? the runner up is botw, but xv wins by a landslide. 630+ hours. botw is 350. my main save in ffxv is almost 200 hours i think. damn. i really managed to keep myself entertained with that game… (………i was thinking recently, since the loading screens in xv are so long, how much of this total amount was spent watching screens. i imagine it’s several hours, especially if you fast travel a lot.)

Most embarrassing gaming moment?

many moments in my gaming experience are embarrassing, but a more recent one: i was in xv’s postgame, beating some dungeons on my new save file. i had just finished daurell caverns and hadn’t saved in about 2 hours. (uh oh) i was driving around in the regalia type d and got to the big cliff near lestallum, and remembered someone made a gif of jumping in there so i wanted to try it too. i imagined the game would just put me back on the road, like it does when you crash into something. except it didnt. i got a game over. where was my last save? 2 hours back all the way in hammerhead. yippee.

Scariest video game you’ve played?

i never play horror games, cuz for me games are supposed to be relaxing experiences. no hate towards horror games of course, they just stress me out. the only time ive played horror is when friday the 13th was for free on ps+, and my friends really wanted to play it. (theyre kinda addicted to it now. huh) they had already gotten over the initial fear of having jason chase you, but i was still terrified. i can play the game without getting scared now tho. the horror sound effects just rly freaked me out at first jhsdkghsd

Most memorable gaming moment?

playing breath of the wild for the first time, or beating it for the first time. both experiences were filled to the brim with excitement and nostalgia. seeing botw as a blank slate, a world for you to explore, having no idea where you’re going… that was pretty incredible. now i know every nook and cranny of the map, so i wish i could play it for the first time again. i was so incredibly immersed. beating it was insane. i cried for 30 minutes and the end wasnt even sad, i was just so amazed at the fact that i was really here, playing breath of the wild, it was really real. the fucking main theme in the background (which i cannot for the life of me listen to without crying) didnt help with my emotions sgkdjh

Video game character you wish you could meet in real life?

…………..its prompto again. maybe 2017 me …. was .. kind of a kinnie

PC, Xbox, Playstation, or Nintendo?

i dont care about console wars at all, but i think hardware-wise, pc is the best, because if you have a good pc you can basically do anything. i however do not, so i just play on consoles. ive never particularly liked xbox, so i only play ps4 and nintendo. not the switch though. its kinda petty, but my best friend and i really dont like the switch djghks

Gaming company you’re most loyal to?

none. i used to call myself a nintendo nerd (oh my god…. i m. gonna die) in like 2015 but since the switch came out and since i got a ps4 they kinda lost me. i still like their game series of course, but as a company i don’t care for them. the only reason i see square enix as one of ‘’my’’ gaming companies is because ffxv took up like 70% of my gaming experience, but besides final fantasy i don’t really love them too much either.

If you could only play one video game for the rest of your life, which would you choose?

atm i’m really into ffxiv because theres just so much to do, but that’s just a new, possibly temporary interest. if i had to choose, i’d say botw. maybe i’d say ffxv, but i feel like running around doing nothing in that game isnt very fun, because the world is sorta empty after completing every quest and getting to level 120. in botw, just fucking around on your horse is still really relaxing and nice.

Do you use strategy guides?

yup. in certain games i try to avoid them but i usually end up stuck or in need of advice. i couldn’t have gotten so many p5 trophies if not for the internet lol

How often do you use cheats?

never, simply because the games i play often do not have cheats. unless im playing the sims and are in need of a motherlode, i dont use them.

Competitive or single player?

single player. im bad at video games and like to do stuff at my own pace. online multiplayer can be fun every now and then in games like mario kart 8 or splatoon, and i also like teamwork stuff like ffxiv or comrades. but ultimately, i prefer playing on my own.

Video game character you want to/have cosplayed?

have never cosplayed, dont have plans to either, but it would be fun to cosplay link. omg. i just remembered i have that fucking chocomoogle shirt… sorry link im gonna slap on some sasuke hair, black jeans and ugly sneakers

Ever go to a video game convention?

i have not, i have however gone to three (3) video game concerts which is basically the same thing.

Hardest boss fight you’ve been in?

the hardest bosses for me are usually the ones with a gimmick. you have to use a certain item or tactic to beat them or something. other hard fights for me are when you fight someone with a similar skill set. (in ffxv, this happens twice, once with the iggy-noct sparring match and once against ardyn. somehow, the final boss was easier than getting the prince to eat vegetables.) i don’t know an actual example of THE hardest boss fight ive been in though. at the time, the first bowser battle in mario galaxy was the hardest thing in the universe and i got stuck for like a month. currently, i’m having trouble with the riku-ansem fight in kh1.

Video game you wish you could burn from your memory?

the zelda cdi games? no, i dont really know. i dont hate a game so much that i’d want to forget about it altogether, but i dont exactly love ocarina of time that much. it hasnt aged well and playing it on the gamecube for the first time in 2015 wasnt a good idea. im sure it was revolutionary at the time, but i cant handle the outdated controls gsdgksjs

Favorite gaming series?

see, i love ffxv itself more than the entirety of the zelda series, but i dont love ff as a SERIES more than the zelda games. so if were talking series, zelda for sure. i fucking love those games and they mean a lot to me.

Do you skip tutorials, or find them useful?

i often skip them because i cant pay attention, but then find that i need them anyway. so i usually do skim through them.

Best online gaming experience?

one really good one happened a few days ago in ffxiv, some guy and i exchanged emotes for like 30 minutes and it ended with us becoming friends on psn :’) ppl dont usually emote back at me in that game so this was really wholesome and nice gjshksdj

Worst online gaming experience?

i dont really have a worst? theyre more annoying. think try harders in gta online killing you 15 times in a row because they want to show you how good they are or something. magically, online gaming hasnt been too hard on me (mainly because i dont game online that much)

Why do you game?

it brings me joy. it’s a fun way of relaxing, while being stimulated at the same time. games have meant a great deal to me the past 6 years and i wouldnt want to lose them for the world.

#uh. i really just spent and hour and a half writing this down but ya #i love ya video games #personal #long post #like. really long

late night meal @ Lets Grill Sushi & Izakaya

Good evening all, this is the last of my “catch up” posts haha YAY I DID IT! I will be more diligent from now on :D one of the reasons why I’ve been kinda lazy with this is . .. badminton! I’m trying to play more; I used to play regularly but things changed & time passed .. . Anyway, I’m making an effort to be on the courts more often. Not that it has anything to do with not eating out lol the main reason, as I’m sure you know by now if you follow my blog is that I’m a shift worker & I work around the clock. It’s hard to make plans with “business hours” ppl :( In any case, I decided to share that badminton bit bcos this late night meal @ Lets Grill actually happened in between badminton & work (I start at 11:30pm, PM!!! PM, you guys!! Start at 11:30PM & go till 7:30AM!!!).

It almost un-did my badminton session but oh well, food is food, & I never say no haha

Lets Grill is a sushi / izakaya restaurant located on Jasper Ave, very close to Corona LRT station. I can’t recall when they started existing but from my memory, it seems to be have been around for a while. Their menu is has a wide selection of items, & I love how their lunch specials run till 5pm~

Everything we had ordered (4 of us total) was from this side of the menu.

I thought I took a photo of the daily specials poster but I didn’t (shawwry!), but on Monday (I think), it’s $1 per skewer :P

The rest of the restaurant. That middle table is soooooo awkwardly placed. ..

A clean presentation of their beverages.

Spicy tuna roll~ A classic that I like but not outstanding. I was actually most intrigued by the red stringy stuff. I think we’ve concluded that it was very finely sliced chili pepper skin!

Pressed salmon sushi, which I liked a lot! & the start of skewers~ On the left, there’s 6 skewers of honey BBQ chicken. The chicken was slightly sweet; sweet enough that if it were on its own, I would still consider it as having enough flavour. However, there’s also sesame on it! I’m not talking sesame sauce or sesame seeds; it was a blended form of black & white sesame in form of a dry-ish paste. It was very cool & interesting! I’ve never put honey & sesame together, but I’m inspired now! On the right, there’s pork belly skewers, which were my personal favourite of the evening. Juicy, very minimally charred, & savoury in flavour. YUM!

More skewers: squid (highly do not recommend.. .) & spicy beef. The spicy beef was very strong in cumin! The flavour was very northern Chinese, like it had that combo of spices that’s common in northern Chinese cuisine. So it was kind of weird bcos we were in a Japanese restaurant. It was good though! Had a nice kick to it: 8/10 on level of spiciness.

Seafood yaki udon. A hearty dish that I liked but probably would not order it off the menu myself. I like udon in soup, that’s why. Udon comes in diff shapes (of the diameter lol); this one was the rectangular kind.

Gyu don. Look at that beeeeeef <3 it’s the slightly fattier beef that you can find in the hot pot aisle at Asian supermarkets. The sauce was a sesame & truffle mayo sauce. I wouldn’t say the truffle was strong so if you’re not into the fragrance or flavour of truffle, I think it’s still ok. Comes with a lot of greens & decent bed of rice as well; a lovely portion for what they charge, in my opinion.

Good 1st time experience here: 9/10 (honestly, it’s just the squid skewer. .. it looked sad & was quite bland).

Fun fact: my favourite type/kind of udon is the circular one that comes in a square form by the brand, Six Fortune! It’s normally kept at room temperature at the store in the instant noodles section. It’s like the equivalent of rye bread or sourdough in my household bcos I’m the only one that likes it. This brand of udon noodles has a very minute sourness to it, which I, for some reason, really enjoy.

This post took longer than I thought & it’s now nighttime as opposed to evening time. .. so good night!!

Three’s a Crowd | Smavebray

Who: Caroline Graves, Sebastian Smythe, and Quinn Fabray Where: La Grenouille, Midtown Manhattan When: Friday April 6th, 7:00 PM(ish) What: Sebastian has dinner with his ex-girlfriend and his fake girl friend.

Caroline left the school, happy that it was the weekend, and that her only responsibilities were to grade some tests and get this dinner with Sebastian and his girlfriend Quinn over with. She's not entirely sure why she agreed to attend, why she had to be the one to remind if that he hadn't texted her, but here she was in front of the location he'd decided for them. The blonde didn't have time to change out of the clothes she'd worn to teach but as usual she dressed to the nines and her outfit was appropriate enough for the fancy and rather expensive place her old boyfriend had chosen. After waiting around outside for a few minutes the girl took a deep breath and made her way inside and faced the host. "A reservation under Smythe." Caroline says carefully before she's lead to an empty table. "A glass of your best red." She says without being prompted, hoping the wine would come before Sebastian and Quinn. She needed a bit of liquid courage to get through this, to sit through this and smile, like it didn't bother her.

Sebastian was extremely nervous. He was mentally absent for his entire work day and he was embarrassed; he never would have thought that dinner plans would affect him so much. Dressed in a navy blue suit, after checking his hair in the mirror about a dozen times, he headed to the restaurant, his heart nearly beating out of his chest. As he stepped out of the Uber, he took in a deep breath before heading in, hoping he was the first of the party to arrive. He gave his name and they led him to the table, spotting Caroline by herself. He swallowed hard before putting on a smile. "Hey," he greeted simply, taking a seat at the table before glancing at the door with a bit of wishful thinking that Quinn was right behind him. "How was your day?" He turned back to her, eyes running over her as he took in her beauty. "You look really great."

Caroline looks up when she hears Sebastian's voice and she sits up straighter, plastering a smile that she lets falter when she sees that Quinn is not with him. Would it just be them? Or was he seriously with someone who couldn't bother to be prompt and on time? "Hello. My day was fine, happy it is Friday. I ordered a bottle of red, hope you guys like that. Is Quinn still coming?" Caroline continue smiling, happy when the waiter comes with the wine, filling the pairs glasses. "You look quite debonair." She meets his eyes a smirk forming, "Who exactly are you trying to impress Sebby?"

Sebastian: "Red is great," he replied, mentally cursing himself, wondering if everything he said this evening would be 'great'. "Oh, she should be here any second." He held back taking another deep breath, his chest feeling heavy as Caroline smiled at him. His goal was to not make a fool out of himself in front of her once again, and he honestly wasn't sure whether he'd be able to do it or not without Quinn. "Thank you," he grinned, feeling a sense of pride at the compliment, but it wavered as she continued. "I just... I dress like this all the time. For dinner, I mean. At places like this." He bit down hard, clenching his teeth to physically stop himself from talking anymore. He couldn't believe the ridiculous word vomit he spewed when he was in front of Caroline and it nearly caused his cheeks to flush.

Quinn spent the afternoon preparing for her dance classes the following day because while she didn't expect to be out to late, she wanted to be ready just in case. By the time 5 o'clock rolled around, she thought it best to start getting ready. This was something she really didn't want to do, but when it came to Sebastian, he was one of the few people she'd do almost anything for. She dressed in a simple, but sexy, black dress and pulled her hair back into a simple ponytail, and slipped into her favorite pair of red pumps that matched her red lipstick. Sure she wasn't really dating Sebastian, but she still wanted to present herself in a way that would compliment him. Quinn purposefully set her pace to be the last to arrive, she wanted to make an entrance. So she was pleased to see the two of them waiting for her already by the time she was escorted by the host. Hazel eyes went to Caroline first, wanting to get a good luck at the girl who had her best friend acting so crazy, then she shifted her gaze to her 'boyfriend'. "Hi, love."

Sebastian didn't notice Quinn come in, too distracted by his own babbling, but when he heard her voice he let out a sigh of relief. He stood up to greet her, as any good boyfriend would, gazing over her body and damn, did she look good. "Hi, gorgeous," he smiled, stepping towards her and wrapping an arm around her waist before leaning in for a soft kiss; it wasn't in his plan, but it definitely helped play into their lie. "We both just got here." He led her to the table and pulled out her chair for her, letting her sit before following suit. "Care, this is Quinn," he introduced them, not even realizing the nickname slipping out. "Quinn, Caroline."

Caroline just sits back, swirling the wine in her glass, before taking a sip. Letting Sebastian revel in his nervousness. It shouldn't make her feel so good, but she figures it is better than feeling bad, or feeling jealous. Except she's cool and collected until the next blonde walks in and her own eyes widen, not ready for the pairs interaction. Not the huge, not the kiss, not the cute "love" that rolls of Quinn's lips. "The pleasure is mine." Caroline says coolly, "I'm glad that you could join us. I hope you're in the mood for red wine." She grabs for the bottle and fills Quinn's glass before receiving an answer. "I don't think Sebastian has told me much about you. What is it that you do?" She raises a shaped eyebrow, still feeling tingles throughout her body at the nickname the man had let slip.

Quinn: It was a good thing Quinn was an actress. She had not been expecting the kiss, but fell into it as if she had been. Taking her seat, her eyes were back on the girl of the hour. It was clear by her cool greeting that Sebastian's plan was working so far and even though this was all just a ploy, Quinn still felt smug about the fact that she was able to make Caroline jealous. Or seem jealous at least, she couldn't speak for the other girl. "Red will do perfectly." Quinn picked up the glass, giving it a few swirls to aerate the wine before taking a sip and grabbing Sebastian's hand on the table. Perhaps she was better at this than she gave herself credit for. "I'm currently working on my MFA at TISCH School of the Arts and teach ballet classes at a studio in Manhattan. I can't say that Sebastian has said much about you either. What is it that you do?”

Sebastian felt a fraction of weight lifted off his chest with his best friend sitting next to him. She was of course far more relaxed and much more eloquent than he was in the moment, and the comparison made him want to try even harder. When she took his hand he felt another wave of relief wave through him, the action comforting a bit. He took a sip of his own wine to keep from talking -- not to mention he might need a little liquid courage to get through that dinner. They make it seem like discussing up ex-girlfriends with current girlfriends is a common practice, he thought, defending himself although he wouldn't dare vocalize it.

Caroline: "An actress." She repeats, letting it roll off her tongue. Caroline is disappointed that she can't find anything wrong with it- but as cold as she often tried to come off, she'd never been the type to judge someone on their job status. "That sounds interesting actually. Ballet. So you're dedicated then, yes?" Caroline looks to Sebastian out of the corner of her eye before focusing back on his girlfriend. "I'm teach French at a high school in Brooklyn actually. I'm hoping to become a translator eventually but I'm happy where I am right now. The summers give me time to study new languages and hike."

Quinn: "Well, they focus on more than just acting, but yes that's my focus," Quinn corrected as she offered a smile and took another sip of wine. It wasn't often that people linked dedication to dancing ballet, but Quinn appreciated that Caroline was able to, even if she was really annoyed that she was able to agree with her. "I suppose you can say that. I've been dancing since I was 4, so I figured I could share what I know and make a decent amount doing so. At the mention of teaching in Brooklyn, Quinn wondered if Santana knew this girl. As big as New York was, it seemed as if everyone else in her life had this way of finding each other. "Is that something you always wanted to do? Teach?" Quinn asked curiously. She always wondered who actually picked it as a career or who fell into it like she did.

Sebastian kept his mouth shut, wanting to stay quiet for as long as he possibly could. He wanted to prevent any more absurdities from slipping out and embarrassing himself even further in front of his ex. He was completely oblivious to the fact that her tone seemed a little edgy, too distracted by by the way her hair fell on her shoulders and the way her dress seemed to sit so perfectly against her body that it must have been custom-made for her. He was also too distracted to notice that it had taken him less than five minutes to finish his glass of wine.

Caroline: “Well I’d hope it’s more then just acting, but it’s your end goal? You hope to be an actress?” Maybe it was stupid of her to be making assumptions but she doesn’t feel like she can be wronged with associating TISCH and wanting to become famous. She nods though as Quinn divulges in minor details about the classes she teaches. “That seems reasonable enough. It’s why I teach French, because I’m passionate about it. I’m glad your students have you. It’s good to teach people passion and dedication. Sticking with something since four is rather impressive.” Caroline finishes her glass of wine, before looking to Sebastian who was rather quiet. He doesn’t seem to be dying to say something so

Caroline: She turns back to Quinn. “I think it was always in the cards. I graduated high school and went right into hiking all of the Appalachian mountains. When I finished that decking what I wanted to do with school just seemed effortless. I’d still be learning languages but it would also allow me to pass them on. I do still hope to become a translator but now is not my time.”

Quinn: The fact that Quinn was the least to finish her first glass of wine was a clear indicator that she was the least stressed in the situation, though to keep conversation flowing as smoothly as possible, she signaled for the waiter to come and refill their glasses. There was no point in changing the selection, the wine Caroline chose for them was suiting her taste buds just fine. She nodded in agreement at the comment about teaching passion and dedication, it was something she always tried to instill in her students. "I've always wanted to be more adventurous, but I don't think I have it in me. The Appalachian mountains must have been extremely beautiful." She turned to face a still silent Sebastian, giving his hand a slight squeeze as a way to try and provide some comfort. He didn't need the reminder that she was there for him, but they always did better with actions than words. "Being a translator seems like the perfect job for someone who seems as adventurous as you, I'd imagine getting to travel around the world for work is very enticing." As the waiter came back around to take their orders, she let go of Sebastian's hand so they could both better look at the menu. "Why don't you order for the both of us, love?" Quinn asked facing Sebastian, both to help solidify the illusion they were trying to portray and to provide him with something to do while she continued her conversation with Caroline.

Sebastian let out a breath he didn't know he was holding in when Quinn squeezed his hand. The gesture knocked him out of his zoned out state and back into the moment, turning to look at his faux girlfriend and giving her a smile. Although it was forced, he pulled it off well, and no one would be able to tell the difference. Taking a menu, he scanned over the dishes, hoping that his nervousness would eventually subside and allow him to at least enjoy his dinner. When Quinn suggested he order for her, Sebastian leaned in without a second thought and gave her a peck on the lips. "Sure," he answered softly, turning back to the menu to select their dinners. After a moment he looked back to the waiter and with his flawless French accent, gave him their orders. He collected all of their menus and handed them to the waiter before seeking out Quinn's touch again, this time resting his hand gently on her knee.

Caroline: "What is there to have in you? You just do it." She shrugs, like it was that simple. Of course it wasn't but she liked to believe it was. That everyone is the same as her, there for they are all the same. After all their fate is decided in the same way- so weren't they, the same? "They were beautiful and it was quite the experience. I liked meeting the different people along the way and hearing about why they were doing the hike. It was fascinating." Caroline just smiles, glad the other blonde could understand why the job was perfect for her, not many did. It was frustrating her because despite her having no right to be jealous that Sebastian is happy with someone, she is, and that someone happened to be Quinn who isn't half bad despite who she gets to kiss and touch. Her eyes must be burning into their skin as she watches their interactions, so simple, so sweet, so everything she wishes she had- and maybe even with Sebastian. She places her own order and goes about focusing on her wine, taking a large gulp, no longer focused on pacing herself. "So how did you both meet? It couldn't have been school..."

Quinn Though it had been a while since they 'faked dated', Quinn was surprised by how easy it was for them to fall back into their roles. She regretted not putting a cap on how many kisses she allowed him throughout the night, the second one surprising her a bit, but she should have anticipated it. She knew exactly how Sebastian was when he was nervous and it was very clear to her how nervous this girl was making him. After their orders were taken and the conversation was brought to her and Sebastian, Quinn was glad that she was already prepared. The best part about fake dating in the public eye meant there was a lot of evidence in their favor. "We met here in New York actually. I traveled up with my father from Savannah one Summer and since our fathers run in a lot of the same social circles, our meeting was inevitable. We've basically been together ever since." She turned to smile at Sebastian, linking her fingers with the hand that rested on her knee. She took a small sip of her wine, pacing herself. Especially with how fast the other two were drinking. Someone needed to be the responsible one.

Caroline: "Endearing." The girls says with a small smile because really who was she to deny her first and only love happiness- especially when she had been the one to deny it for herself. They were cute together and they seemed to have things in common, at the surface anyways. "Well, may I raise a toast." She looks Sebastian in the eye, her own words surprising her. "For the system to be in your favor." Caroline toasts at the air before finishing her glass- realizing where this evening was going to end up. "Have you two been here often?"

Sebastian felt another wave of relief wash over him when Quinn began to answer how they met. She seemed to have no problem taking over the conversation with Caroline and he had no problem with that at all, but he couldn't help but wonder whether his silence was becoming suspicious or not -- or if he could just be paranoid. Whatever the case, with a glass and a half of wine in his system, he felt a little more relaxed, a touch more confident, and he decided he could attempt to rejoin the conversation. He rose his glass to the toast, although his brows furrowed in the slightest way at the wording. It was strange and perhaps insincere, but he didn't dwell on it as Caroline continued on. "Every now and then," he replied, his speech much more eloquent now that he had some liquid courage in him. "We've spent a couple anniversaries here...special occasions...you know."

Caroline: "And how long have you been together?" Her cheeks tinge pink at the fact it had taken her this long to ask, especially when they'd just gone into the details of when the pair had met. "And have you spent any anniversaries outside of New York? Anywhere cultured? France maybe? I know how much France means to you." Caroline looks to Sebastian before eyeing Quinn, hoping she knew that as well.

Quinn was surprised at the gesture that was offered by Caroline but still raised her hand in unison with the other two. She didn't really care in the system or the prospect of relying on it to gain happiness, but she knew she needed to act like she did for Sebastian's sake. At that point, she finished her second glass and asked for a refill, nodding along with his claim of them spending special occasions at this restaurant. At the other girl's next question, she took a moment and tried to make it sound as believable as possible. "There were some off and on moments, I mean were barely adults when we first met, but I suppose you can round it all up to about 8 or so years." In Quinn's mind, as long as she could prove her story, they were all good. "We haven't made it to France, yet. But it's in our plan for the next couple of years. Sebastian has been promising to take me for years, but with TISCH and Law School, it's been kind of crazy for us." She turned to him and offered a sweet smile. "I'm sure we'll make it sooner rather than later." When the waiter came with their food, Quinn was relieved for the distraction, she could play this game of make the ex jealous any day of the week, but the sooner this dinner was over, the better for her it would be. Even if Caroline wasn't that bad.

Caroline: "Hm. Maybe it would be the perfect place for marriage then." She says as calmly as she can, unsure why she would even say that when it hurts so much. Sure being 16 was against them, as was the system, it still hurt a lot to know the boy she had loved could move on. But who was she kidding, honestly? A catch like Sebastian needed to be caught, needed the happiness, she'd been so sure she couldn't give him. Is still sure she couldn't give him. Their food comes and Caroline starts with her salad, not sure how much she could actually eat when it felt like there was a rock sitting in her stomach making everything feel heavy. "You'll both be done with school here shortly, yeah?"

Quinn almost choked at the mention of marriage. It really was a good thing she was an actress. She smiled through that and the mention of both her and Sebastian coming up on their second degrees. If they weren’t best friends, they really would be the perfect couple.

The rest of the night was filled with shallow pleasantries with lulls of quiet as they ate their food and finished another bottle of wine. Quinn wasn’t sure if Sebastian had gotten what he wanted out of this, but she hoped she didn’t need to endure another painful dinner with his ex girlfriend who in any other situation, she would have gotten along with really well.

Yoongi X Reader

Smut

Word Count - 3516

Request -

where you trip over some boxes/files that were left on the floor by Yoongi (your crush and a long-ish time friend) and spill coffee you had on your new shirt. he wants to by you dinner as an apology and things take off when he wants to drive you home ^^

A/N -

THIS IS SO SHIT HONESTLY I WANT TO CRY BUT I HAD NOTHING ELSE TO POST AND THIS IS ONE OF THE FIRST REQUESTS I HAD EVER GOTTEN, I AM SO SORRY IT HAS TAKEN FUCKING MONTHS TO POST THIS AND IM SORRY ITS SO SHITTY <3

Your arms were engulfed with coffee cups and folders as you rushed to your desk. You were already 5 minutes late, and you knew your boss wouldn't be happy.

Fuck you hated your job.

You saw people exchange glances as you sat on the small table, slamming the folders down carelessly. You were in no mood to return fake smiles today. “Now that's not the right attitude to come into work with.” The, deep, tense voice that made your smile turn into a frown every time your ears recognised it. You turned to look behind you, to see him. His jet black hair seemed glossy, a smug smirk placed on his lips as he looked down at you. You turned back to your computer screen.

“Sorry, Mr. Min..” You mumbled, typing impatiently as you tried to ignore your bosses presence.

“No need to apologise, Y/N, but you need to understand, that in this company, we all have a positive attitude.” He whispered from behind you, his lips inches away from your ear.

You couldn't help but snort at his remark. Was he that stupid to not realise that not fucking everyone was as happy and cheery as him? Yoongi raised an eyebrow at the unusual sound that escaped you.

“Yes.” You nodded, breaking the awkward silence that was taking place between the two of you.

“Okay, good.” Yoongi nodded, his hand squeezed your shoulder. The warmth against your clothed skin made you feel slightly uncomfortable at his unnecessary touch.

“Please don't touch me.” You asked, your voice blank as you tried to stare at the computer screen. Failing in the process. Your eyes travelled to his large hand, veins bulging as he gripped your shoulder.

Although you had no possible intimate feelings towards your boss. You had to admit that he was a handsome man, and that if you were to have a ‘crush’ on this man, you would gladly fall at his feet.

“You must have taken my sign of reassurance out of context, I apologise Y/N” Yoongi chuckled, his hand falling by his side again, a smirk playing at his rosy pink lips.

“Well I apologise for taking it out of context, Mr. Min.” You smiled, turning around so you were facing him once again.

“Please, call me Yoongi” Yoongi smiled down at you, his hands now placed behind his back. He was indeed a formal man, who was enthusiastic enough to keep his workers irritated and tired 24/7.

“Okay, Yoongi, now please can I get back to my work?” You asked, annoyed at his lingering presence.

Usually people would scurry away from your boss, trying their best to ‘behave’ in a formal manner. To look good in front of him. To be like him.

But you decided to turn the other way, being honest and rude to him as much as you could. You couldn't help it. He just seemed to dehumanise everything in his way, and you weren't going to let the impact he had on other people, affect you.

“Of course” He nodded at you, patting your shoulder once more before turning his back to you and walking to his office.

“Oh fuck this” You breathed out, your eyes glancing at your watch.

You were going to be late, again.

You sipped your at your coffee, hissing as you swallowed the scorching hot liquid, you took no notice of your untied shoes, and before you knew it, you were tripping over your own feet, the hot beverage spilling carelessly over your hand.

You cussed, trying you hardest to focus on the way you were going.

You yelped, crashing against a soft chest. The large hands found their way to your hips as everything you had once carried was now on the ground. You cussed as you felt a sting against your chest, a painful, burning sensation that had settled there.

“Woah, hey, those boxes shouldn't have been there” A deep, soft chuckle broke the awkward silence.

“Shit.” You muttered, wincing as you started to realise that your face and body was pressed up against Min Yoongi’s, you slowly pulled your face away from his chest, to look up at him, flustered and embarrassed at the position you were both in.

His eyes studied your shy, guilt ridden face before travelling down to your chest, where the coffee had made your sheer red blouse expose your black, lace bra. Your breasts looked so plump and round in the wet shirt, that it was merely impossible for him to not think about dirty things.

“Y-you look like you’re in pain.” Yoongi stuttered, grabbing your wrists and pulling you out of the way of the boxes and anything that could possibly cause another commotion.

“Yoongi, I am fine.” You reassured him, trying to pull away from his firm grasp.

You could see the lust in his eyes, you could smell his desire. He wanted you so badly, seeing you, there, with your breasts practically exposed as your teeth overlapped your bottom lip in a why that turned Yoongi on.

You turned him on.

Yoongi thought for a moment, before releasing his grip from your wrists, a smile playing on his lips. “I should have looked where I was going, I was actually looking to see where you were-” He started, running a thumb across your heated cheeks.

God dammit why was he always following you.

“You know, to see if you had those files I needed for the meeting later this evening.” He smiled, shaking his head as he thought about your shocked expression when you had collided with Yoongis chest. He felt comforted by you, the weight between you two had been such a stimulating experience, even if it only lasted a minute or two.

You cussed under your breath. Yoongi had specifically told you to bring those files today. The meeting he was going to was practically his promotion on the line.

And you had let him down, once again.

“Shit, I’ll go home straight away and get them, I am so sorry, I was in such a rush this morning and-”

“How about we go out for lunch, and then I can overlook the papers with you, so were both confident about the level of work?” Yoongi asked, grinning.

“I mean, I guess so. But I have to change, I can’t go anywhere looking like this.”

“In my eyes, you look gorgeous-”

“Watch it, Yoongi.”

“But if you are worried about your appearance, I would happily drive you to your home so you can change.”

You hesitated, but nodded, turning around, grabbing the folders you had brought with you to work and threw them on your desk. You were coming back later anyway.

On the car drive home all Yoongi could look and think about was you and your body. The way the seatbelt wrapped around your curvy body made your breasts pop out made him grow, but Yoongi was a man who could control himself in these types of situations.

“Turn right” You told your boss, your voice hoarse and shaky.

You were nervous to say the least.. You had never really interacted with Yoongi out of work, so this was a first for you.

“Just park there, my car got towed a couple days ago so theres a free spot.” you mumble, pointing at the empty space.

You stepped out of the car, hissing as the cold air hit you. Rushing to the door, you unlocked it, motioning him to come inside quickly, it was cold, and your apartment was warm, cold usually overtakes heat at a rapid pace. And you liked being warm.

Without argument Yoongi rushed inside, looking around the room. It seemed cozy, a suitable size for someone who lived alone. He couldn't complain.

“I’ll be 5 minutes, make yourself at home.” You muttered, strolling to your bedroom, grasping clothes from your wardrobe as if it was a race.

You slipped out of your clothes and placed on a white button up shirt and black jeans slipping on grey converse. You weren't going to make yourself look sophisticated, you were too tired.

Yoongi looked around your apartement, his long slender fingers trailing across old novels that had been shoved into the oak wooden bookcase, to never be used again.

Without thinking he had walked right into your room. You were facing away from the door. But he saw you. In all your glory.

Your black, lace underwear hooked onto your hips, your ass lightly bouncing as you hummed softly to yourself. He looked at the mirror tactically, to get a better view of those beautiful breasts.

Fuck he shouldn't be doing this.

He forcefully pulled himself away from the door, walking quietly back to the living room, Yoongi slumped onto the sofa. taking a deep breath, he inhaled your sweet, musky scent. The house smelt just like you, like it was embedded with roses and pine.

“I'm sorry for taking more than five minutes” You chuckled, standing infront of him sheepishly.

He smirked, standing up before gesturing you towards the door. You nodded, grabbing the files that were intended to go with you this morning.

Yoongi had told you that you were going for lunch. Not to the fanciest restaurant in town.

“I’ll just have the steak, tender, with fries.” Yoongi nodded at the waiter, passing his menu to him.

“Can I just have the pasta?” You asked shyly, passing him the menu too, thanking him as he walked away.

“You don't need to be so shy..” Yoongi laughed, clapping his hands together as he stared down at the files.

“Ah, yes” You placed the papers on the table and started to go through them with him, pointing out your mistakes and what you thought could be improved.

He loved the way you spoke. You talked too fast, and that made him smile. And whenever you asked what was so funny, he would just shake his head and waver his hand for you to carry on with the conversation.

The way your fingers fumbled with your bracelet whenever you admitted to a mis-correction in the work. It made him smile. The way your cheeks puffed out as you started to get more tipsy. It made him smile.

Everything you did, made him smile.

You.

You made him smile.

You both staggered out of the restaurant, giggles and chuckles muffled by the wind. Yoongi waved his hand out for a taxi. Once one had accepted the request, you both slid into the back.

“Fuck.” He hissed, shaking his head.

“I must have left my phone at yours.” He sighed, apologising for the inconvenience.

“Its okay, just come and get it” you shrugged, resting your head against the window. It felt cold against your heated skin.

You gave directions to the taxi driver, sitting quietly.

Yoongi glanced at you, he bit his lip. You looked so fucking hot. Your hair was stuck to your face from the heat inside of the restaurant, he bit his lip, looking away.

You gestured for him to come back inside of you apartment, throwing your coat onto the dining room chair carelessly. You turned to face him. You had to admit, within the past few hours, you had started to feel squirmish. There was no lying that you were drunk. But even when you were sober, you felt too comfortable with him.

How about you tease him?

Everyone teases, it cant be that bad, right?

You decided to go with the choice that could possibly make you lose your job. You looked at him, his black hair was messy from the heat and rain, his face was shiny from the humidity in the restaurant, he looked so inviting.

“Yoongi..” You smiled kindly, your voice seemed to had become higher within seconds of making your decision.

“Yes?” He looked at you, his brown eyes locking with yours, He was intimidating, even when you were drunk, you could still see the danger in those orbs.

“Its getting pretty late, I mean, you could bunk here for the night?” You stammered, your voice laced with alchohol.

“Are you sure? I mean I could just take a cab home.” He suggested, biting his lip as he smiled.

“I’m sure.” You gave a laugh, walking to the kitchen before grabbing a bottle of wine, “Wine?” You asked, stumbling slightly as you grabbed a wine glass, waiting for an answer.

“Of course.” Yoongi chuckled as he watched you from the sofa, smirking at your drunken state.

You poured the liquid, spilling some of it on the white kitchen top, causing a pool of red booze to form around the half filled glasses. Picking them up you brought them to the oak coffee table, leaving the spillage in the kitchen to miraculously clean itself.

It had been a couple of hours or so since Yoongi and you had stumbled into your apartment ‘under the influence’, and you both had started to sober up.

But that didn't stop you two from flirting with each other.

During the hours the two of you had spent together, you had started to tease, subtly, unbuttoning the buttons on your shirt leisurely, until the crease of your breasts was exposed. You could see him starting to stare at your chest more and more throughout conversations, his eyes laced with lust and desire.

“Don't do that.” You smirked, raising your eyebrow accusingly at the young man.

“Hm?” He snapped his head back up to your face, shaking away his devilish thoughts.

“Look at my chest while we’re talking about smoking in offices.” You chuckled, biting your lip purposefully

“That's not the only thing that's smoking tonight..” Yoongi gave a growl, his hand creeping up to your thigh.

“And what would that ‘thing’ be?” You breathed out, leaning in closer to him, you could feel his hot breath radiating off your nose.

“You.” He whispered, pressing his lips against yours, he pushed you back, his lips still connected. Your head hit the arm of the sofa softly. Yoongi laughed, his hand lay at the side of your head as he hovered over you, licking his lips in anticipation.

“Then cool me down...” You whispered back, cupping his face with your hands.

He winked at you, nodding slowly as his head started to lower, leaving a trail of colourful marks all the way down to your stomach. You gave moans of delight as the sweet touches sent shivers to your core.

His hands fumbled with your shirt, unbuttoning the last few buttons that were closed. they travelled to your jeans, he paused and looked up at you, “Do ever wear anything else?” He teased, sliding them off with no trouble.

You rolled your eyes at his sarcasm, your hands grasping his hair as he kissed your pelvis, his lips travelled down to your thighs. You blushed as he lay on his stomach, opening your legs and pushing the black lace material that covered your slick folds to the side. He observed the pink, juicy flesh, humming to himself.

“So vibrant Y/N..” He chuckled, spreading your lips with his fingers, your breath hitched as he did so. The two digits brushing against your clit, “Oh did that feel nice?” He raised an eyebrow, repeating the action.

You released a short moan, your hands gripping the sides of the sofa. He chuckled, his tongue licking a long stripe up your folds. You groaned, involuntarily spreading your legs wider.

“That feels good..” You whispered, biting your lip.

He mumbled against you, the vibrations making you arch your back. he released his lips from your heat, admiring your lower half for a couple of seconds before delving back in. You whined as he pushed his middle finger inside of you, the long digit sliding in and out of you, your juices shined on his finger.

His lips found their way back onto your core, engulfing the soft pink flesh that lay before him. A chorus of moans escaped you as he flicked his tongue into your delicious pink heat.

You were starting to feel lightheaded, and the tight coil that was once wrapped securely inside of you had began breaking and before you knew it, it snapped. You were practically drowning in pleasure, tingles travelling through all parts of your body at once. You exhaled, the hazy feeling of the aftermath of your orgasm coming to you all at once.

Looking down, you caught a glimpse of yoongi, his eyes looking up at you, his hands wrapped around your thighs and his lips, shining with your juices.

“Oh Yoongi...” You groaned as his licked his lips, the sound of his belt unbuckling making you sit up automatically. He looked at you, licking his lips hungrily. You smirked, grabbing his collar and pulling him towards you, your face inches away from Yoongi’s.

Your hands grasped at the material that covered his lower half, pulling them down eagerly. His cock proudly made a tent in his boxers. You licked your lips in anticipation, your fingers hooking under the cotton fabric, dragging them slowly down his toned legs, your nails scraping delicately against his warm pale skin.

The fabric pooled at his ankles, along with his pants. Your fingers started to trail back up his legs, you laid eyes on his sex, it had arose even more, his shaft an angry red. it was noticeable that he hadn't had much action for a while His head tilted back as you wrapped your hand around his member, slowly pumping him, a chorus of groans escaped him as your hand moved faster and gripped tighter by the second, along with that your confidence grew stronger as you cupped his balls, your mouth watered as you stared at the image infront of you, Yoongi, his cock being pumped by your small hand, his adams apple bobbing as he moaned, his toned arms and legs flexing as he tensed up. You knew he was close to his climax already.

Your tongue swirled around his tip, making him grasp your hair, tugging at it desperately, “Oh baby.” He groaned, looking down at you, you looked so fucking hot with your pretty little mouth wrapped around his hard cock, it was a sight to remember.

You tried your best to take him all, but you started to gag, your eyes watering, instead you used you wrapped your hand once more around the length you couldn't take. You started to move your head and hand at the same pace, your lips dark and wet with saliva, hollowing your cheeks intensely.

Yoongi releases a groan, he was so close to spilling his see, the overstimulation that you were causing him made him wince. He growled, before pulling you away from his member, you were so focused on sucking him off you gasped in shock as you were turned around and bent over, his hand made contact with your ass, the slight sting making you moan with pleasure, you were still soaked from before, he pulled your panties down, you couldn't see him but you could hear him sucking on his finger, the loud ‘pop’ indicating that his mouth wasn't the only thing that his finger was going into.

The digit slipped inside of you easily, sliding it in and out the pleasure that waved through you as he slipped another finger in, stretching you out. His fingers leaving you and replacing themselves with his cock, he teased you slightly, lingering around you entrance, pressing against your lips until he slipped inside of you.

The feeling was unimaginable, Yoongi didn't know it was going to be like this. Warm and wet. And good. So good, to be surrounded by slick and heat, the tightness of you putting the right amount of pressure on his dick to make him thrust into you like there was no tomorrow. You groaned and moaned, your fingers digging into the carpet as he quickened his pace, slapping your backside after every few thrusts.

He grunted, low growls releasing from the back of his throat as the sound of your body viciously smacking against his rang in his ears. Your vision darkened as you reached your peak, ripples of pleasure wavering through you effortlessly. Your juices dripped down your thighs.

Yoongi was nearing to his high, one final thrust and he started to feel dazed, his breaths getting heavier as he came, the hot white seed shooting out of him, and into you, he pulled out a white string of his cum was the only thing attaching you two.

The white liquid trickled down your thighs, mixing with your juices. He stood up straight, rushing to the bathroom. You stays there on all fours, unsure on what to do.

He came rushing back a towel in his hand, cleaning you up he tusked at the red marks he had made on your ass cheeks, he smoothed them out, cooling the stinging marks. “oh shit’.” he mumbled about the imprint he had left, you laughed shaking it off.

“Its fine, I enjoyed it.”

“Did you?” he raised an eyebrow, throwing the towel behind him, you turned over, laying down on the carpet, exhausted.

“I did.”

IMPORTANT EDIT: Hasbro Jurassic World Dino Hybrid “Hybrid Rampage” Indominus Rex

IMPORTANT EDIT: Today, in the same day I opened this, as I stated seemed a bit weak, the neck HAS broken. I have made a few attempts to fix it, and it seems like an easy ish fix but it involves disassembling the entire toy. This has not changed my opinion on the figure but it’s very important to remember!

Today we're looking at the Jurassic World: Dino Hybrid series Hybrid Rampage Indominus Rex. If you're familiar with my previous Jurassic World reviews, you'll know I haven't been historically pleased with Hasbro. Despite their financially based intentions to drop the Jurassic World Line, they have minutely redeemed themselves with this particular model, and I've been looking forward to writing this review.

Note: My standard release Indominus Rex by Hasbro is at my mother's place in Canada as it waits for me to be able to afford shipment here, so I cannot make direct comparisons, only from memory!

The box design greatly resembles that of it's predecessor, the standard Indominus Rex as released by Hasbro in 2015, the only major structural difference being the corner at which the T-rex portrait is located is cropped instead of the far corner near the dinosaur's head.

A major difference for this model, as reported to me by my friend before it was even passed onto me, is it includes batteries. It also loves reminding you that those batteries are included, as any minor movement makes the robust roaring, crunching, and grumbling ring out. So shipment of this becomes quite chattery. However, as I'd stated in my standard Indominus Rex review, I feel including batteries much improves the presentation of the figure and is a good move on the part of the manufacturers.

As with all the Jurassic World toys, the figure is held in the box using a seemingly biodegradable twine. There is a plastic bubble to keep the figure in position.

Upon opening, I found the Bermuda triangle of twine, twisted and wrapped together quite elaborately. Not keen on cutting any of it, I spent some time briefly studying how it was exactly tied together so I could potentially replicate it should I put the figure back in the box. Considering how previous figures were packaged, I find this work of art to be quite unnecessary.

The simple, bold presentation the Jurassic World line's packaging provides is still quite strong in my opinion and is great for a try it before you buy it type sales pitch. Not so great for putting away in storage should you be a mass collector, but we're trying to sell to children here! Packaging gets 9/10. The only improvement I can think of would be to put a secondary inner box like some older toys have, so you don't have to dismantle the entire box to get the figure out.

Now of course, the part I was really looking forward to; the design. From one Indominus to the next, the improvement on proportions has been drastically improved. The largest improvement that stands out the most strongly being the head's size in comparison to the body. The standard Indominus Rex could almost fit it's entire torso inside it's own mouth. As you can see in these images, the Hybrid Rampage Indominus Rex is proportioned much more closely to it's design influence Tyrannosaurus Rex. While Indominus Rex is portrayed as being able to rest on it's arms in a kneeling position, the arms on the original figure were actually thicker than it's own legs, and the choice of shrinking the arms down to nearly half their original size was quite a good choice.

The original conceptual presentation of the Dino Hybrid Rampage Indominus Rex showed a potentially rubberized head like it's standard predecessor. The figure presented at Toy Fair 2016 as can be seen on 16bit, showed yellow external back spikes, red markings outlined in white, black claws, a more rosy shade of pink inside the maw, and slightly more detailed eye painting.

The most noticeable variations from the Toy Fair presentation and the production run I have here, is that the sculpt is a lot softer, the details less saturated. The external back spikes have been changed to red, the hip spike are now white, the red markings are no longer outlined in white, the eyes are lacking the red highlight, and the claws are not individually painted. The red markings also don't continue onto the tail and hips as one might have expected from the initial images and presentations, leading me to believe they chose the most simple, quick, and honestly lazy path to finishing this figure. Which is unfortunate considering the sculpt and general design is such a drastic improvement from everything else they've released for Jurassic World so far.

Upon opening the box, this Rex's tail is separated much like it's precedessor, to which it is also extremely close in resemblance. At this point was the decision if I really wanted to rebox this figure or not, knowing how hard the tail is to get out. Seeing the sheer size and appearance of this piece unboxed, I've decided to keep it unboxed.

Despite the desaturated details in reference to the Toy Fair presentation, this figure is still extremely detailed, especially in comparison to the rest of the figures produced for Jurassic World in general. The only spot really lacking in detail is the bottom of the feet, which unfortunately, does not assist in it's ability to stand. However, that is a very forgivable move, considering you really aren't paying attention to the bottom of the feet while the figure is shelved, or if you are a child playing.

Now here's where things become very interesting. My Omega T-rex is in the storage unit upstairs in the apartment complex, so I used my Chaos Effect Thrasher T-rex for size comparison. While the Jurassic World line is more 'cartoony' in general, the Dino Hybrid Indominus Rex is the closest to matching the Thrasher T-rex in detail and design I've seen since the '98 Chaos Effect line itself. Considering how toony the Chaos Effect specific dinosaurs were, for example Paradeinonychus and Velociraptoryx, makes me think that had Thrasher been sculpted for Chaos Effect specifically, the design would have been in VERY close proximity to the Indominus we see now. And this is where I felt Hasbro had given themself a slight bit of redemption. It's true, most of the Jurassic World figures suck, but I must say the Hybrid Rampage Indominus Rex is quite a special piece by itself.

I think I'll go with an 8.5/10 for this one visually. It's a great design, but they did cut a few corners and make a few strange choices for the production run and that is rather disappointing. I think had they gone with the initial paint job I could have pushed for a 9 or even 9.5, as this design is so much more well thought out than the rest of the Jurassic World toys.

youtube

As far as play-ability I'm a little on the fence about this one. I'm impressed with the jaw chomping feature they have added on this, where you basically "crank" up the arm, release it, and the head makes a series of animations instead of following the exact motion of the arm like on older designs. This explains the choice of a fully plastic head instead of the rubberized head we'd seen in the conceptual images. While this is a very fascinating and unique animation design, the mechanics feel very fragile, and if you don't crank it down all the way, it starts to catch and the head gets stuck and starts to click and not close all the way. You can fix this by cranking the arm fully down, letting the animations run without the movement of the head, and then letting everything pop back into place and resetting it like that. You will then get clean, fresh movement next time around. Why this I find this disconcerting is that if a child is playing with this, it doesn't only seem potentially frustrating, it seems extremely sensitive and easy to break. I didn't try this of course, but it seems pushing the arm upwards or too far down could potentially break the whole thing. The neck segments also seemed to be held together by very thin pieces of plastic, so the figure has a high risk of unintentional decapitation.

Animation aspect aside, the rest of the figure actually seems quite sturdy. The body and head are made of a hard plastic of a more brittle consistency, while the limbs are softer and have a slight pliability to them, reducing the risk of lost fingers, toes, or even limbs.

The general structural durability of this toy seems pretty good and seems it would hold up decently to moderate child's play. I think for play-ability, with the risk factors in the head region, I'd give this a 7/10. Yes, less so than it's predecessor, but they took a gamble with the head mechanism, and while it's a great design I think it's a lot higher risk factor for children who may not understand the limitations of more delicate parts.

Despite the few flaws I do see in this model, I'm very pleased to say that this is by far the best design in the Jurassic World lines so far, and that I even personally believe it's comparable to some of the older designs, which is excessively pleasing and satisfying for me personally.

With a retail price ranging from $30 - $40, I have to say this is actually a really great buy, and if you feel like you want just ONE thing from the Jurassic World lines, I'd highly recommend choosing this one.

My average rating comes to 8, but I think based on just the drastic improvement I've seen from the previous toys to this one, and the robust and dramatic size and color and unique animation, I have to actually give this toy a 9/10. So, hat tip to Hasbro for upping their game, at least for this one model.

Thanks for viewing, I hope this information is helpful or at least interesting!

#51: Season 3, Episode 9 - “Short Story”

After Lawrence Jr. High temporarily merges with a neighboring school, Louis discovers he has an "evil twin" by the name of Loomis Freeman who pulls even worse immature pranks than he does. Ren likes a mystery merger guy she offered to share her locker with until she meets him face-to-face and finds out he's significantly shorter than her.

The episode opens with Wexler on the school intercom explaining what’s going on, while simultaneously getting a deep tissue massage. Not a weird start at all. There’s been an infestation of cockroaches *shivers* at Jefferson Junior High. So for the time being, the Jefferson kids are staying at Lawrence. Within the first minute, Ren, Ruby and Monique are talking about what they’re going to wear to the school’s “social event of the season.” Ren says that some of the Jefferson guys have serious date potential, so the three girls start checking the guys out. I kinda like this, because the first dude they pick is black. I know it shouldn’t be important, but I couldn’t help but notice. (As a biracial person, I just tend to be more aware of this stuff lol) I thought it was nice!! No discrimination on Disney Channel!

Ren tells the girls that she volunteered to share her locker with someone. When she opens it up, it’s clear that someone has already moved in. They suspect it’s a boy. You can tell the person is into photography. There’s a camera and some prints in there. Ren takes a look at some of the things and concludes that the mystery guy’s stuff is “cool” and she wonders who he is. Oooooh!

Next we see Louis, Twitty and Tawny in the hall. Twitty asks Louis if he’s going to get a new suit for the “big dance.” Louis says “Let me explain something to you, because I’m adamant about this. There is a dance this Friday night, but it’s not necessarily the BIG dance!” Tawny asks why not since it’s their semi-formal. Which is another thing that makes me feel like they’re supposed to be in High School, but Disney decided to set it in Junior High for demographic reasons. I never had a semi-formal in middle school. But, hey! Maybe that’s just me. Can I also just say - I love that Louis used the word “adamant”? He makes a solid point though when he goes on to say that he doesn’t like to throw the word “big” around: “It’s always the Big Dance, or the Big Formal, or the Big Track Meet. WHAT ABOUT THE TRACK MEETS THAT ARE JUST TRACK MEETS?!” -- True.

Suddenly, we get a 7 years pre-“Glee” Naya Rivera cameo! She walks up to the gang and stomps on Louis’ foot. She accuses him of putting gum in her hair. He swears it wasn’t him so she kicks him again for lying. The plot is being set up without giving it away pretty well here!

youtube

Twitty awkwardly puts her hair in his pocket at the end. I don’t get that, lol. But… okaaaay.

Ren has yet to meet her mysterious locker buddy so, with some persuasion from Monique and Ruby, she takes a look in one of his books and finds out his name is Travis Gresham. Ren decides she has to meet him. So, she basically turns into a nervous puddle of goop every time she sees a Jefferson dude, thinking any one of them could be him. But, nope! No luck.

We see Louis (or at least someone who looks just like Louis) hiding in the hall watching Twitty use the water fountain. The water goes everywhere and “Louis” runs away laughing. Soon after, we see Louis being taken into custody by Wexler. This time he’s being accused of putting a fake mouse in the faculty fruit bowl but once again, Louis has no idea what Wexler is talking about and is screaming that he’s innocent. Ren is distracted by this drama and ends up missing Travis get a book out of their locker. Since she’s Vice Principal Ren Stevens, she decides to go to the office and look up his file. Of course, there’s no photo attached to it. However, while she’s there she notices a different file with a picture of Louis attached to it. Except it’s not Louis… It’s LOOMIS! Yeah. A Jefferson kid by the name of Loomis Freeman. This is too much, lol. (See cover photo.)

Ren immediately shows Louis the file and he figures out that it must be Loomis who’s been playing all the pranks and starts to refer to him as his “evil twin.” Twitty even believes that it was Louis who rigged the fountain until Louis shows him the picture of Loomis. I love their friendship. Twitty believes him right away, no questions asked. It’s great. Next, a girl with chocolate all over her face approaches Louis at lunch. She doesn’t say a single word because if she did Disney would have to pay her, so she just stands there silently blaming him for it and pies him in the face as payback. Poor Louis, man. Dang.

“Loomis Freeman must be stopped, Twitty.”

Ren hears someone say “Hey, Travis!” to a guy at lunch, sooo... It must be the mystery guy!! Yay! She goes over and introduces herself as his locker buddy. She sits down and they end up having an awesome conversation. They talk for so long, they don’t even notice that lunch is over and everyone’s gone! Travis asks Ren to the dance and she’s so excited……. until they stand up and he’s literally at least a foot shorter than her. Yikes! I would try not to care about something as trivial as that but I can definitely see how Ren might be embarrassed.

She tries her best to be kind because they did get along amazingly. But when Ruby and Monique meet him, they tease her and crack jokes about it. Rude. (But honestly some of the jokes were funny. I couldn’t help but laugh. I’m so sorry, Travis!)

All of a sudden, Louis Loomis comes riding by on a bike and sprays the girls with a water gun. Louis runs up to them seconds later and asks if “he” just rode by on a bike and which direction “he” went, haha. Loomis and Louis are dressed extremely similarly though. That’s a bit of a slip-up, imo. They should’ve at least dressed them in slightly contrasting styles or something because the only physical/visual difference between them is Loomis’ hair -- it’s teased out larger than Louis’. I will say, one thing I actually really like about this episode is that it highlights how mature and smart Louis actually is compared to someone much sillier and dumb.

Loomis.

Louis, like, 5 seconds later. I know they’re supposed to look alike and confuse people and everything. But, they’re already being played by the same actor!! They didn’t need to actually be dressed like twins. What are the odds of that? Well, then again.. what are the odds Louis would have an identical evil twin? I’m taking this show too seriously, lol.

Louis has a large copy of Loomis’ file photo in his room and is using it as a dartboard. For real though, that picture should honestly be a poster or something. I mean, how iconic is this image?! If Even Stevens ever becomes as popular as other older shows in the nostalgia wave this would most definitely be a hipster-y poster to have. Like, this picture of Urkel or that “Animal House” John Belushi poster or something. Bad examples. I can’t think of anything else right now. You get the gist!! One of those posters that speaks for itself. You look at it and automatically know there’s a pop culture reference there. Even if you’re not familiar with what/where the reference comes from, you just KNOW it’s a thing. It’s Shia LaBeouf making a ridiculous face. I’d hang that in my room right now.

Louis is getting super worked up over the fact Loomis is basically ruining his life. He stops to think of what Loomis’ next move might be and realizes he’s most likely going to try to sabotage “the Big Dance.” Yep. Louis goes back on his word from earlier in the episode and explains “it just became the Big Dance.” Perfect!

During class, Ren can’t stop thinking about Travis’ height. She tries telling herself that it’s not important but this quickly segues into a nightmare-ish daydream sequence. She imagines going on a date with him and he just keeps getting shorter and shorter -- until he's a tiny little ant and Monique accidentally sits on him. Ouch. It actually reminds me of this scene/montage from Lizzie McGuire, where Gordo feels self-conscious about his height and also dreams about being super tiny.

Ren lets the pressure get to her and says she can’t go to the dance with him.

Loomis already put flies in the ice cubes (nasty!) by the time Louis and Twitty arrive at the dance that night. Wexler suspects it was Louis who did it but lets him off the hook with a warning. Side note: As someone who had a massive crush on Shia/Louis growing up and feels like a 12 year old again every time they watch this show… I have to say that Louis looks so weird in the best, most lovely way ever when he's not wearing a freaking Hawaiian shirt lol. It’s so refreshing to see! Like, whoa.

He looks so suave. Why did people sleep on Shia and call him ugly back then?! Also this blazer is so loud and oddly very “Louis” somehow. It’s not really the kind of blazer I’d picture him wearing but it just works. Same goes for the TURTLE NECK?! Really. Louis owns a turtle neck?! I love this character. Ugh.

Ren, Monique, and Ruby go to the dance together and they’re all dressed very Junior High appropriate and accurate! My friends and I dressed exactly like them at our 8th Grade class night, which I guess you could consider our version of a “prom” type thing. The dress I wore was super similar to Ren’s minus the giant flower, haha.

Ren feels bad about turning Travis down and is really hoping to see him there. She waits by the punchbowl and Loomis dances his way over like a fool. Ren is convinced he’s Louis at first and compliments his outfit, but then he sprays her in the face with one of those squirting flower pins on his jacket. Loomis runs off laughing and Ren realizes it was the ~evil twin.~ Louis walks around a bit brainstorming what Loomis could be plotting when it hits him… Loomis is going to fill the overhead balloons with water.

Same, Ren.

Travis gets up in front of everyone at the dance and shows a slideshow of photos he took during his week at Lawrence. He thanks LJH for being awesome hosts and ends the slide by saying “and some of us even made new friends…” accompanied by two super cheesy “candid” photos he took of Ren, lol.

Meanwhile, Louis comes face to face with Loomis. This is pretty great. Not only does it showcase Shia playing two different characters in one scene (very well, I might add) but it’s just another thing that shows how serious Louis can be when you put him next to an actual wacky lunatic.

Sure enough, he finds Loomis up above the dance holding a balloon full of water. Louis mocks him for only filling one balloon and says he’s tired of being blamed for his “shoddy work.” Louis’ vocabulary is on point in this episode. He spends some time trying to convince Loomis to hand over the balloon - as if it’s a gun and Loomis is one minute away from pulling the trigger or something. Unfortunately the balloon ends up falling on Ren, and Louis is genuinely upset about it. I’d be sick of being blamed for crap like that too. Wexler proceeds to KICK LOUIS OUT OF THE DANCE. He seriously pushes him out the door and locks him out. This bothers me so much!

Louis vs. Loomis: WWE SmackDown.

Ren ends up apologizing to Travis and all is well again. They dance together and it’s a little awkward. Not because of the height difference but because, as I’ve mentioned before, “Romantic Ren” is cringy. Part of me feels like she’s supposed to be though. Let’s face it - we were all overly dramatic and took “relationships” (i.e. instant messaging two words to your crush on AIM last night) very seriously in middle school.

The episode ends with Tawny approaching Loomis thinking he’s Louis. Come on, Tawny! You should be able to tell it’s not him! Loomis creepily smells Tawny’s shirt and says “…………..you smell purrrrdy.” It’s actually hilarious. Tawny is so confused. She’s just like “….you smell… purrrrdy too?” I can’t. Loomis asks her to dance and Louis ends up having to watch them slow dance from outside the window. He’s basically having a stroke screaming at Loomis to get off of her. This is so???

Wexler sees Louis at the window and goes one step further by closing the blinds on him!! I feel so bad.

This episode always leaves me feeling frustrated lol. Why does Louis have to lose like that?! :( This one is actually pretty good and entertaining though! The Louis/Loomis face-off is probably the best scene. And I don’t mind the Ren plot either! My only real issue is that there isn’t really any stand-out dialogue here. And the evil twin thing is, just… I mean… really? Season 3 was wild. I’m not gonna lie, when I first got back into the show I kept forgetting about this episode for some reason?! I don’t exactly know why. How could you forget Loomis Freeman?!

I hope you’re all doing well during this crazy time on Earth. Thank you so very much for reading, as usual! And chime in below! :)

What do your parents do? My dad's passed away, but before he died he was disabled, and before THAT, he was a computer systems programmer and analyst for Piedmont Natural Gas and Bank of America. Mom's retired and disabled now with back problems, but she was an LPN before that. 89. Do you like your age? No. I hate being a responsible grown-up. I want to be ten or eleven again, old enough to know things, but young enough not to be responsible for anything other than basic chores, and I still got allowance. 90. What makes you angry? Practically everything, at some point. My family puts it as I have a wild hair across my ass and it'll go off anytime. 91. Do you like your own name? It's not a bad little name, but I always liked Daphne better. 92. Have you already thought of baby names, and if so what are they? Fuck no. Ugh. 93. Do you want a boy a girl for a child? NEITHER. I want cats. or dogs. or fish. or a bird, I think I could love a bird. or a turtle. 94. What are you strengths? I'm loyal to a fault; if you're my friend, I am always in your corner and I will 100% throw hands with the first motherfucker who looks at you wrong. 95. What are your weaknesses? Impulsive, careless, stubborn 96. How did you get your name? My Dad's uncle (Kelly) and my mother's father (Ray became Rae). Can you tell they were expecting a boy and got me? 97. Were your ancestors royalty? Christ, no. They were poor Irish. 98. Do you have any scars? ...didn't we just answer this? Yes. 99. Color of your bedspread? Flowered. 100. Color of your room? White walls, burgundy carpet.

LOGBOOK ENTRY#1 PALAWAN

7-5-18

5:35AM — We are on our bus to Clark International Airport and we almost left Gina behind because she was late. I mean what’s good Gina? There’s nothing new here hahaha! Things are getting pretty exciting, minus what happened with those three taxis with Ryan. We also got a discount from the Genesis Bus for being PAL customers! It’s surely is an adventure for us. This is the first time I saw the sun rise while I am inside a bus, this is amazing. Pale skies turned into blue eyes and the sun brought back the colors.

8:30AM — Early birds! We took over a bench and made it our own beds at the airport. We’re still waiting for Ferds because he’s got our hotdogs.

9:55AM — My heart is pounding like crazy at this moment. Besides my ID problem, Clark International Airport just had their last call for team Gina and I still have the nerve to type this down! I’m really nervous and anxious as fuck because we might miss our Palawan trip. Worse, I might not even join them because of my ticket problem.

10:03AM — We literally bolted through the security gates like crazy heads running for our lives! The marshals are pressuring us even more and we were throwing our things through the scanner. It was so funny what the fuck hahahaha! Once done, we ran to our vehicle to our plane. We looked like casts from the Amazing Race Philippines and did the walk of shame for being late to our seats.

10:20AM — Finally on our plane and the adrenaline rush was still pulsing through my body. I got more anxious as the plane got faster, this was the first time for me being concious to ride a plane. Lucky enough to be seated beside my best friend, whose left arm was crushed by yours truly. Sorry Dust haha!

10:40AM — At 44,000 feet, my long life dream to be with the clouds finally came true and I got the whole zoo on my stomach!

11:20AM — We were picked up by a driver who seems to be part of the Need for Speed cast for his driving skills. Busuanga, Palawan already looks fine as hell with these views and the cold weather! Nothing will top Palawan’s greetings with its rainfall. Manila rain can choke. Everything’s going North so far!

12:30PM — Finally arrived at Ryan’s home and the vibe is nothing but warm and welcoming. Food is great. Like reaaaaaally fucking great. View is amazing and the people are so nice. His mom prepared a house for us to stay in. Yes dude, a fucking house. We all took our naps and recharged our energy for another adventure!

10:16PM — Ryan’s mom cooked us the best first dinner at Palawan! All fish and veggies. Lerma is already shaking. We also did some short grocery at the bayan where we met some locals, aunties and friends of Ryan. It’s a small town and people know each other. They are so nice, they always tell us to enjoy our stay in Busuanga. We spent the night drinking mixed alcohol from a blender and playing cards. Okay well they played cards, I don’t know how to play. Someone also cried and poured his/her heart out but I will never tell who it is. It was the best way end our first night, I think this trip will be nothing but memorable and definitely one for the books. The logbook lmao.

7-6-18

8:07AM — We are on a boat to Calauit Safari to meet some MOTHER FUCKING GIRAFFES. My heart is too excited, I’ve always wanted a pet giraffe since I was little but my mom said giraffes are not domestic animals. Yeah, sure mom. My first island boat experience was a cleansing experience. I don’t know why I used the term cleansing. It’s not like I dipped my face in the water or anything, It just felt like the wind is washing something from my past.

8:50AM — I’VE PET AND FED THE GIRAFFES. My heart was so overwhelmed I was smiling from ear to ear. Two giraffes ate at my hand on the same time. Their tongues are kinda rough, long and it has the color of an aged eggplant. Another life-long dream came true, I love Palawan already!

10:21AM — We left Calauit Safari and we are now on our way to a beach to have our lunch. At the safari, we also saw some zebras, monkeys, snakes, turtles, crocodiles and even a porcupine. Our tour guide gave us a porcupine spike as a remembrance for our trip. I kept it behind my phone for luck lol

12:53PM — We had our lunch at a restaurant by the beach called Palatpat. Our food was made by Ryan’s family friend, we ate and dipped our feet at the beach. The view is amazing. It was so funny because from a distance you can see a storm approaching and we did not mind it at first. After a few minutes we took lots of pictures before a heavy storm locked us in our cottages. We were cold and stranded so we just watched our videos from the safari. And also, we discovered that Gina called the giraffes kangaroos hahahaha!

7-7-18

10:29AM — This view of the ocean is really breathtaking. It was drizzling a little bit and the raging waves said hello as we arrived on the dock. We were supposed to go to the famous Black Island, but sadly the current is too strong. I honestly thought it was passable, but tita said our boat might flip and I honestly don’t mind that lmao

11:40AM — We went to the Concepcion Falls instead where I ate a lot of crabs and did not get sick. I fucking love it here. Palawan got me eating crabs! We also met Merissa, who’s a 22-year-old backpacker from California doing her research. She joined us in our stay at the falls.

1:15PM — We took a refreshing swim. The water was cold but it was definitely rewarding. I felt as if the falls was cleansing me from something I was hoping to be free from. But I honestly don’t know what it is but I feel great. Oh and my friends are simply the best, they make this trip extra ordinary.

10:53PM — Sleeping beside your best friend is all fun until he becomes this big scared dweeb. Dustin was so afraid of our ghost stories he squeezes himself beside me and grabs my blanket. He’s not really brave when it comes to this stuff haha! So of course we made fun of him and took advantage. A weakness has been revealed!

7-8-18

5:30AM — Shit! Shit! Shit it’s 5:30AM and I’m already running from Ryan’s house to the church here in Busuanga. I cannot be late for church so I ran like I’m running for the marathon of my life! It was so far and I had no choice but to bolt.

7:37AM — Ferds and Ryan waited outside the church for me. I was surprised to see them there. We went to buy pandesal for breakfast, went to a basketball court and back to the dock. At the dock I saw a sleeping dog under the sun that reminded me of how my Bella loves to do that back home.

12:43PM — We are on a speed boat to an island for lunch, it’s a place called Alfaro. Seriously, I’m still shocked at the fact that you need to go to an island just for lunch hahahaha! Man I hope I live here. Alfaro is at the top of this small mountain and it has a pool that completes the relaxing-island vibe. I ordered squid for lunch of course and it was delicious as eff.

2:46PM — We then took a dip in the pool and enjoyed the every moment Alfaro has to offer. The view at the top takes you to a new level of comfort and peace. I looked far away and I saw a nice place that looked like a private mansion on an island. We all stared at it and dreamed to have our own island one day hahaha! Wish we can go there but I doubt it. They played a game in the pool where the three boys cheated hahaha! We then washed ourselves together in a bathroom and I’ve exchanged sandos with Dustin on our way home.

11:30PM — We drank alcohol again and this time I wanted to get sleepy drunk so that I could feel well rested by the morning. Is that weird? Anyways, we drank and played a corny version of never have I ever and Ferds was so funny with his shit. I then realized that I woke up today at 5:30 in the morning and was so tired from our activities. I then decided to sleep early and ditch my friends who are still chatting.

7-9-18

8:10AM — I woke up with a little hang over (lol at my plan to be well rested) so I decided to do some exercise and stretch out a little bit outside our home.

9:10AM — Today we are about to go hiking to the viewdeck of Busuanga and I’m sure as scared and excited for this activity. Another first for me!

10:16AM — After climbing, stepping on slippery rocks, holding on trees and a couple of mosquito bites, we finally reached the top before the rainfall. The view was covered by the rain and a thick fog, 0% visibility at its finest! We were drenched and frozen from the rain so we huddled in one corner at the viewdeck and waited for the storm to calm.

10:36AM — The rain stopped and the fog cleared, the view of Busuanga was uncovered right in-front of our eyes. It was so fulfilling to climb and witness this view! We took lots of pictures and videos. It was pure and genuine joy for me. I absorbed every moment at the top, just self-reflecting what I have done for the past years and pondering what I wanted to be free from. I whispered, “Come what may.” before leaving the place.

11:20AM — We are now going down from the viewdeck and I think it is much more difficult to go down than to go up. The way was slippery because of the rain and it became more steep. Dustin and Ryan both fell on their asses as we go down and I managed to go down with zero falls. A King, I know. Do we stan? Yes we do. lol hahahaha jk.

1:50PM — After preparing and having our lunch at Ryan’s house, we went to our home and took a shower. We also took our power nap before doing our laundry and preparing for our fishing activity.

2:22PM — So this is what it feels like to take naps with your best friends during the afternoon. I felt like a kid who took a mandatory nap with his best friends, getting energized for another adventure. Dustin can sure get extra sleepy and baby-ish at the same time tho, I’ll give you that. Ryan went missing.

6:05PM — We were peacefuly doing our laundry while waiting for Ryan’s arrival at his house. We planned to go fishing after our hike earlier, but it’s getting late and Ryan cannot be reached. Out of suprise, tita arrived with a van waiting outside. Suddenly everyone was in a rush, it turns out we were going to Busuanga Bay Lounge and Ryan did not inform us! WHO’S SHOOK? BITCH WE ALL ARE. WHERE’S RYAN? WHERE ARE WE GOING? WHAT ARE WE BRINGING? THIS IS NOT IN THE PLAN, WE WERE SUPPOSED TO GO FISHING HAHAHAHA

6:30PM — After panicking, running and preparing around the house, it started to rain and we are now on the van tracking Ryan’s whereabouts in the town. Finally the signal returned and we were able to contact him. We found him in a kubo with two of his friends eating lomi. It turns out Ryan was not informed too and the signal was to blame for no messages can come through. I forgot to mention that there was literally no signal in the island, you are lucky if you encounter a place with a good reception.

7:11PM — Busuanga Bay Lounge - okay so this place is hella expensive. Like waaaaay expensive. I was not prepared for this restaurant by the dock or in other words, I AM SHOOK. We’ve seen this place from the Alfaro view the other day, this was the mansion we were admiring from a far! It’s funny how we were just wishing to go here the other day and now we are actually here. Breathing! Me and my friends were exchanging looks and laughing because of the menu and its price range. We were laughing because we are not used to fine dining, for Pete’s sake we eat at Hepa Lane you guys. That’s our thing, our brand lmao

8:01PM — I had this deep talk with Dustin out of nowhere after dinner. We talked about our separate plans after college, our time together and some more stuff we don’t usually talk about. I like it when I have deep conversations with people, specially this douchebag, because it’s rare. I was not able to say some of the things that I want tho, but I hope he knows how much he means to me as brother, all of them. Food was amazing by the way. It was worth the price if you were wondering

7-10-18

1:35PM — We made fishing rods out of plastic bottles, nylon strings and hooks for our activity this afternoon. We are finally fishing! We went to the dock and I picked up a rod on the way. They said someone owns it so I was worried I will be in trouble for taking it, but I took it anyway to the dock with me. Pasaway.

2:16PM — We were on the same dock where we were supposed to depart for Black Island. I recognized the place because of the mini tower at the sea near the dock. The only thing different this time is that the sea level is low and I think the tower on the sea can be reached.

2:31PM — Dustin caught a fish! He got so excited after his first catch. A master of the sea? Does this have something to do about Dust being from Navotas? The Fishing Captial of the Philippines. I don’t know hahaha but he caught a real fish alright! He even got the gang more excited and energized! I did not hold back, I wanted to catch one too!

3:00PM — It started to rain really hard and the rain drops were hitting our skin like pebbles. The wind and the waves grew strong but our energy grew stronger, we did not leave the dock. We continued fishing and I have felt so alive in that moment. It was surreal! Fishing during the storm by the dock made me feel no fear, I was unstoppable.

3:15PM — I have no photos of this moment but we went to the mini tower I was talking about and went back to fishing again. It was still raining hard and the dock was slippery because of the moss, it was an exciting adventure for everyone! We’ve felt so happy we don’t mind getting injured lmao!

3:45PM — After the rain, we went back to the higher ground of the dock and walked back home. I returned the rod I have borrowed earlier to the same place. Dustin was carrying his catch and the others were all tired and happy from our fishing adventure.

5:00PM — We cleaned and piled ourselves on the couch and watched Master Chef at Ryan’s house. Tita arrived from work with these delicious pizzas and pastas from her friend. I was skeptic at first on the taste but Palawan keeps on delivering surprises! The pizzas and the pastas were amazing! The flavors are on point. Others should take notes! We rewarded ourselves for fishing today by eating a lot. Like a lot!

7:30PM — We were still full from our merienda but we have no choice but to eat dinner because tita cooked crabs! I fucking love it here. Happiness never ends, and when I say happiness I mean food! We then realized that it was our last dinner together in Busuanga for our trip at Ryan’s house and it was kinda sad to think about. We ate our feelings that night, we were introduced to the famous Coconut Cake. Let me just get real with everyone here. You have to eat this cake before you die. It’s so good I’m not even exaggerating anything here! I wish I could take this cake home and give my family a slice. They’re missing this back at home!

8:40PM — Still full but it did not end there. Tita and Ferds opened these freshly picked coconuts and we drank and ate it all. It was delicious, it made Gina and Dustin go number 2 hahahaha! Tita is just the sweetest and most genuine, she wants us to rest early for our early trip to Coron tomorrow. That’s when it hit us that it was our last night in Busuanga with tita.

7-11-18

7:05AM — Tita rented a van for us to ride to Coron. I was seated beside Dustin and I immediately fell asleep because we were up so early. We left Busuanga with my eyes open at 25%.

7:30AM — We arrived at our new place and we prepared for our tour. We were not yet allowed to check in so I changed my outfit at the lobby. After changing my shorts, I saw the cctv camera pointing exactly at me and I screamed and we all laughed hahahaha! That was so stupid but I have no regrets hahaha! To Jasmine’s Place of Coron, please don’t leak me online. No one wants to see me that looool

7:55AM — We chose to have breakfast in a mini carinderia where they serve surprisingly delicious and tasty breakfast. For P85.00 I got one longanisa, one egg, one hotdog with rice and a cup of coffee. That was my first breakfast in Coron.

9:05AM — We arrived at the dock where we boarded a boat for our island hopping tour. Our tour guides are locals who are very good at their job and are very kind. When the captain asked for a volunteer for a picture, I immediately raised my hand and took the chance. He was good at taking pictures, even better than some of my friends hahaha!

9:43AM — Our first destination was the Green Lagoon. It was definitely a beautiful moment. The rock formation is really unbelievable and this view just takes you out of the zone. We took lots of pictures on the boat and we dipped in the lagoon and experienced the refreshing salt water. We got that vitamin sea game now haha!

10:19AM — We are off to our next destination and Dustin placed his leg above mine like he always does. He does this when he is too comfortable with the people he is with. I’m gonna miss this little things about this goof.

11:07AM — We arrived at the famous CYC Beach and we were told to be careful as there are sighting of sea urchins and jelly fish. When I got off the boat, I jumped to the water and swam the fuck away in fear of steppin on a sea urchin. Ain’t nobody got time to go to a hospital today, that’s not happening haha!

11:19AM — We were playing with the sand and I said, “Guys gusto ko na malibing.” My friends were like, “Same.” hahahaha! They all dug a whole beach grave for me. How supportive.

11:22AM — While they were busy digging, me and Ryan saw some beach dogs nearby and we immediatley petted them. I never imagined that one day I’ll be at a beach with some dogs.

11:30AM — My friends are assholes! They left me burried as our captain called everyone back to the boat haha! I had to rise up from the dead alone and run on water naruto style to the boat.

11:55AM — Our captain and his team cooked a lot of dishes for us. They cooked fish, liempo, some sea weeds, steamed veggies, oysters, salted eggs with tomatoes and more! Surprisingly, everything taste so gooood! Like restaurant-quality good!! And the most impressing part is that they cooked everything in our boat while sailing. THIS IS THE LIFE, MAN!

12:20PM — I think I’m pregnant after eating a lot for lunch. Patay-gutom jael was satisfied, guys. We are sailing to Kayangan Lake and they said it’s far away from where we are so we’re sailing for some amount of time. The weather turned cloudy and the vibe is just peaceful and surreal. I closed my eyes and listened to the waves splashing our boat before falling asleep.

1:03PM — I know I have been talking about all of the sights and sceneries here in Palawan, but the one above Kayangan Lake is THE VIEW OF THE TRIP. It made me realize that I have been living and doing a lot of firsts again in the past few days. I know that the past 4 years of my life has been a roller coaster, this trip is like a big pat in my back saying “hey, you do you. you did great and you deserve the world.”

1:40PM — We had the entire lake for ourselves. The water is so clear and fresh it is as if the Pokémon, Celebi, lives here. We have to wear our life vests all the time because the lake was very deep. We swam further and floated, just staring at the sky and thinking. I know I sound like someone from a book, but don’t you crave for that experience? just floating, flowing and allowing everything as you pause from the world. It felt like that.

2:05PM — The lake was covered with fog as it started to rain. Kayangan Lake started to look like a place from the Jurrasic World, I was really hoping for a big monster to come out of that big stone formation in front of us and roar really loud. I think I’m imagining too much but I have always been this way and I think a lot of people should too.

2:55PM — We are now on the middle of the sea again. We were looking through the corals below us and I can see from a far that a heavy rain was headed towards us. Everything was slowly fading as it goes inside the fog and the rain. I was outside our boat when it reached us and that rain felt gooooood for some reason. I went inside and we sailed through the cold rain back to the dock.

3:45PM — We thank our captain and his team for doing such a great job. I wish I could do what they are doing someday. Meeting and exploring with new people everyday is something I’ve always wanted to do. At the dock, we bought refrigirator magnets as pasalubongs. And yeah we cheap like that.

4:05PM — So me and my friends decided to go to this famous hot spring in Coron to cleanse us from the sea water right after we landed at the dock. We went back to our hotel to get some money and we did not even change our clothes, we were too excited.

4:24PM —
