#im tired n kinda emotionally drained
Text
.
#i get that theyre scared but im so tired of family members saying they want more guns n more shooters sent to prison n see how they like it#every time i hear anybody close to me speak up about this i get geniunely so drained. no boundaries to speak of rn. and still i want to#pipe up and mention that maybeee consider not that. but i realize even that one intervention of a 1sided convo will not get them to wake up#it takes a process. it takes slow and long.#and i know i have a responsibility to intervene when possible. but like rn? im exhausted and miserable and not resourced enough to take care#of myself and these other people at the same time. they really are out here hushing each other whenever they talk ''political'' in fear ill#keen over and die from the additional mental strain as if i dont  think about these things on the daily#idk the ppl surrounding me are so intolerable to me rn. at least a function of that is how much im intolerable to myself and how shaken i am#mentally spiritually emotionally intellectually. whatever#im so tired of being a women like how they think a woman or a man should be. im so tired that im just sucking it all up and unable to#turn it into direction towards more useful ends. now it just sinks to the pit of me and stays congealed and im stuck. im stuck. im stuck!#i miss being in a place where i could see all this and move forward anyways without getting knocked out of alignment.#it rly feels like rn im crushed into either a fetal position spiritually or on my hands trying to howl toothlessly and w/o clarity#i have so much trouble trying to stay in my body and letting myself talk shit. any kinda shit. im starting debates im getting run down im#getting mired in the pointlessness of being right or being better or being more correct than ever. im starting shit i dont have to in the#name of glory or betterment. and directly tied to this is getting so mired up in the guild and dread and panic of proving and being a talksp#erson#i get threatened much more easily and i get intimidated much more easily. i try to take up as little space as possible. as if doing so will#actually do something to help me breathe. what a joke!#what a default state return to patterned meanness. sorry. im trying to collect myself and step down without hurting myself.#it doesnt feel like im moving at all from where im at but im probably crawling. im probably inching myself along.#keep making room for being watched though. i feel like im being watched. i keep thinking im letting down all the people ive talked to b4 abt#such things. i wonder if they would sneer at me? i keep looking towards how i was few months ago when i had more energy/presence/okayness#and i miss having fun. i miss the knowing that we would be okay we would figure it out as we figure it out#i miss not falling into the trap of proving myself to ppl and if i did to climb back out.#rn if its not flattened and a distant dissociated state im generally embarassed to exist. to speak. to know its never now/never.#i miss knowing and believing concretely that there are people many people doing this work who are thinking hard and doing hard things#and offering contempt to myself is like condemning myself to burn out farther and farther and the best i can do rn to counter that is#acknowledging i have indeed done the bare minimum; which is wise.#acknowledging i have indeed thought ill and i can follow that up w a bringing back to an acknowledgement of my efforts.

I don't feel like I should talk about my own personal issues bc of the movement, but i don't think bottling things up is healthy and if I don't talk about it that's whats gonna happen.
I feel bad. All these people are out there protesting and I want to be there so desperately too, but my mom won't let me because of the pandemic. I'm still not sure what college to choose and I wanna have a choice made by the first of July.
I don't feel like my writing is that good. I used to think I sounded great and that I was a great writer, but now I look at my writing and I cant help thinking maybe I suck. I don't know if I just crave more engagement and comments or something.
I also kinda feel freed. This is the first time in a while that I havent been crushing on anyone. The last crush stopped bc he didn't support the LGBT+ community and he also typed the n word and he's Arab, but he's not Black. That ain't cute so we dropped him. But it's weird not liking anyone.
Im not even sleeping right anymore. I'm sleeping at five in the morning and waking up at noon most days bc I'm paranoid and restless at night now. At night I can't leave my room unlocked until I get so tired that I'm about to fall asleep. And when I do sleep I'm not waking up rested. I still wake up drained.
I'm also hurt because someone Ive known for four years now is a trump supporter and I've tried explaining to them why Trump isn't a good person for America but they won't listen and this is something that emotionally hurts me bc I'm Muslim and Middle Eastern.
I think that's all.

random irl drama that's been eating me this week 😩 sorry for my lack of activeness this week its really been a week yall omg
also d-2 is i n c r e d i b l e 
 jfhksdhf dramas under the cut cuz its long and boring but like,,, 
anyway so I have this friend, lets name her Lila, and her friend Sarah.  they had a bit of a falling out a couple months ago bc Sarah kept berating Lila and calling her names and just overall being really mean and awful to her. I think Sarah even flirted with a guy that Lila had a crush on just to piss her off like TLDR IDK IF I COULD EVEN CALL THEM FRIENDS????
but anyway Lila is kind of a pushover and ive told her time and time again to not put up with it and stand up for herself esp when Sarah is calling her awful names and basically telling her that she’ll never be as good as she(Sarah) is. so like I, against my will, got involved bc Lila kept coming to me crying abt how awfully Sarah was treating her so I told her point blank she needed to cut Sarah out bc it obv was too toxic of a ‘friendship’ and it was very obviously eating at her.... so like she listened? and cut her off and she was genuinely doing so much better without her and she started making new friends and her demeanor just changed for the better and I was really happy for her. also Sarah was saying shit like ‘I know Lila is gonna come crawling back to me anyway’ which is fucking ???? disgusting???? 
anyway fast forward to like a week or two ago I noticed that Lila was kind of being weird and I knew she had a twitter so I went to look at it and SHE WAS TALKING TO SARAH AGAIN AND KISSING HER ASS, MUCH LIKE SHE WAS DOING BEFORE!!! all the while Lila was coming to me like “im so miserable, my “friend” is making me feel like trash” MEANWHILE I already knew she was fucking talking about Sarah the entire time and I just... im disappointed ykwim 
I was talking to my other friend who was like ‘maybe its a different detached kinda friendship this time’ and its shaping up to be the same toxic friendship as before and im just DISAPPOINTED and Lila’s been coming to me all week just telling me how shitty she feels bc “her friend” (she hasn't said its Sarah but I know it is, she just keeps saying “my friend”) is making her feel like garbage by berating her again and I'm honestly like drained???? ykwim?? I dont want to hear this shit from Lila anymore bc I tried to help her before and now I just dont want any hand in it bc its clear that even if I yelled at her to treat herself better she just?????? doesn't seem to want to and I know we’re still under lockdown technically and everyone's trying to find shit to do but this is not it, sister. 
and im like emotionally and mentally drained from having to hear Lila complain abt this bitch every damn day and im so tempted to just call her the fuck out for running back to that bitch and telling her I dont want to hear her shit anymore im just TIRED OF IT YALL

Hi, hope you’re doing well! 😊👋🏻 I was wondering, what are your thoughts are on Western vs Eastern astrology? Which do you prefer to use? Which do you think works better with synastry? Or should people use both? Also, I was kinda curious,, what’s your Western and Eastern signs? 👀
im-sleepwalkingg
 Hi, I am doing well physically ...BUT Mentally exhausted & emotionally drained ... 
Easy question 1st ... 
Eastern Sign: Horse
Western Signs: I am pretty much a Libra all around ... *lol*
Sun, Moon, Mercury, & Venus are all under Libra
Mars - Gemini
Jupiter - Leo
Saturn, Uranus & Neptune - Capricorn
Pluto - Scorpio
Lilith - Sagittarius
N Node - Aquarius
Rising Sign or  Ascendant sign - Pisces
When I first started getting into astrology when I was kid (I have 2 older sister so I started young)...  I would use my western sun sign the most. And didn’t know much about other signs.  As I got older I started searching & reading up on other forms of astrology. 
I personally love Eastern & Western astrology, I always founded fascinating.  I know some people take it to the extreme & too much of anything is bad. When I read horoscopes is more as a pass time & just for fun.  But when I read the description of a Libra/Horse it is so interesting how close it is to my personality.
In synastry charts techinally your using both.  Yes, it looks like most of it is Western Astrology, but Eastern astrology is literally your year of birth. So you kinda need both.
I personally like using both.  Because like I said before ... My parents who have been married or almost 40 years are not compitable with their western signs. Mom is Virgo & dad is Gemini. But their Eastern sign is a match.
Also like using both from personal experience .. I have to friends that are fellow Libra ...All 3 of us are sooooooooooo different, but when I start looking at it we all had different Eastern signs. Or when I have bias they tend to be either Libra, Aquarius or Gemini OR  a Dog or TIger ... Example my bias from Super Junior is Donghae Libra / Tiger ...
I hope I answered all your questions ... Let me know if you need me to clarify my personal thoughts... Too tired ...
Also I appreciate you asking how I am doing ... And changing up my inbox ...
FEEL FREE TO ASK ME MORE STUFF!!!

             whats  up  distinguished  guests  it’s  me  nicki  w  my  new  demon  child  VALENCIA  who  is  basically  the  human  embodiment  of  a  black  hole.  i  literally  first  wrote  her  for  a  skeleton  rp  where  she  was  based  off  of  the  color  bLACK  SO  THAT  SHOULD  TELL  Y’ALL  SOMETHIN  KSDFJDF. i  have  a  pinterest  board  for  the  original  version  of  her  muse  here  if  y’all  want  some  visuals  !
Tumblr media
*  tw  for  abuse,  violence, TOXIC BEHAVIOR IN GENERAL
(  lauren  jauregui  •  21  •  cisfemale  )  looks  like valencia  santillo just  moved  into apartment  3C!  i  heard  that she is  here  in  los  angeles  because she  wanted  to  escape  an  oppressive  environment  and  become  a  writer but  has  been  struggling  –  thankfully  moreau  has  taken  them  in!  rumour  has  it,  they  can  be  quite bellicose and mercurial but  at  least  they're vibrant and straightforward,  hey?  i  can  already  tell  they’re  going  to  be  the spitfire of  the  building.
this  is  gonna  b  quick  bc  i  know  y’all  are  tired  of  me  JSKDF
basically  val  is  like  5′4  of  bloody  knuckles,  mommy  issues,  and  bde.  SHE born  and  raised  in  boston  massachussetts  which  is  where  our  story  begins  !
her  mom  was  a  doctor  at  the  peak  of  her  career  who  had  no  intention  of  having  a  child  but  ALAS  she  was  stuck  with  val  anyways  after  not  realizing  she  was  pregnant  w  her  on  and  off  again  fiance  until   ‘oh  boy  are  those  contractions  ?’
suffice  to  say  val  had  an  absentee  p.o.s.  wall  street  workin  dad  and  a  mom  who  resented  her  for  taking  up  so  much  of  her  attention  rather  than  letting  her  focus  on  her  career.  she  was  emotionally  abusive  towards  val  from  a  young  age  despite  val  practically  raising  herself  ???  anywho  her  mom  eventually  began  to  get  physically  aggressive  with  her  once  val  got  older  and  started  snapping  back  to  defend  herself  and  there  were  several  instances  where  cops  were  called  and  excuses  had  to  be  made  up  :/
val  never  really  cared  for  school  since  she  only  liked  the  weird  morbid  stuff  like  war  and  plague  and  death  so  she  started  playing  ice  hockey  in  like  the  6th  grade  and  her  mom  finally  started  paying  attention  to  her !!  like ‘wow  ok  ur  finally  worth  something  to  me’  which  gave  val  such messed up self-value  issues  ?  but  the  sport  became  val’s  life  and  her  whole  existence  revolved  around  it,  it  was  val’s  sole  source  of  happiness  for  so  long  tbh  :((
val  stuck  with  it  through  high  school  &  ended  up  getting  REALLY  good  and  got  a  scholarship  to  boston  university,  where  she  studied  english  ( emphasis  in  folklore )  and  sociology.  she  took  her  team  to  their  championships  her  senior  year  &  won  but  at  a  huge  price  bc  val  got  slammed  into  the  barrier  shooting  a  buzzer-beating  shot  and  like  demolished  3  fucking  vertebrae
and  since  now  val  can’t  play  due  to  her  injury  shes  a  v  bitter,  v  angry,  v  sad  lil  bean  who  was  forced  to  move  back  in  w  her  mom  and  that’s  when  shit  got  BAD.  it  was  even  worse  than  when  she  was  a  kid  and  her  only  real  escape  was  putting  on  her  headphones  and  tucking  away  into  a  book
ended  up  running  away  to  moreau  like  a  year  ago  after  she  graduated  &  recovered  enough  to  be  back  to  normal.  she  got  into  a  beef  with  her  mom  that  was  so  bad  she  broke  val’s  nose  and  that  was  just  it  for  valencia.  val  packed  her  shit  into  a  duffel  bag,  hopped  on  her  motorcycle,  and  never  looked  back.  road  tripped  for  like  a  month  through  the  US  draining  tf  out  of  her  savings  account  to  make  it  to  LA.  she  wants  to  be  a  writer  but  knows  it’s  not  a  career  she  can  make  a  living  off  of  so  she  hops  from  small  job  to  small  job  while  she  compiles  a  poetry  portfolio  to  try  and  get  published
PERSONALITY WISEEEEE
val’s  like,  super  aggressive  and  imposing  and  kinda  has  no  filter  ??  she’s  a  v  love  or  hate  type  person  and  it’s  not  unusual  for  ppl  to  want  to  avoid  her  bc  she’s  scary  JFKSJD.  also  can  be.....  really  unreliable  sometimes  she’s  habitually  late  and  will  legit  not  show  up  to  her  own  party  bc  she  forgot  she  had  a  dick/pussy  appointment  that  night  lmfao  she  can  be  the  WORST  but  she’s  a  loyal  ass  bitch  to  her  inner  circles
she’s  a  hedonist  bc  it  feels  good  and  bc  she’s  got  the  leftover  trust  fund  money  for  expensive  drugs  and  thats  really  it.  no  rhyme  or  reason.  she  likes  to  party  so  she  gon  seek  out  a  good  time  and  she’s  !!!  got  a  rlly  high  tolerance  for  shit  so  she’ll  b  out  here  livin  her  best  life  like  every  night  DHFS  ! 
her  biggest  issue  is   her  unchecked  aggression  and  attachment  issues .....  she  either  doesn’t  give  a  single  fuck  or  she’s  violently  possessive,  there’s  very  little  in  between.  she  gets  jealous  easily  and  stirs  drama  to  get  her  way.  also  will  nOT  hesitate  to  punch  a  bitch  and  has  a  lifetime  membership  to  her  local  mma  gym  bc  :)))  aggression  issues  im  tellin  u  dfadfa
teeters  between  absolute  apathy  and  like  a  calm  bubbling  rage  bc  she’s  in  emotional  anguish  and  feels  uncomfortable  w  kindness  bc  of  her  mom  and  has  no  concept  of  how  to  deal  w  her  emotions  but  !!  shes  never  learned  how  to  bc  shes  always  been  on  survival  mode  her whole  life  and  that’s  val  !!!
uhhhh  she’s  a  mf  gryffindor,  works  at  the  local  bookstore,  her  leather  jacket  and  motorcycle  are  her  most  prized  possessions.  also  pansexual  and  polyamorous  depending  on  the  situation  bc  sometimes  she’s  like ‘yeah  i  can  share’  and  other  time’s  she’s  like ‘look  at  anyone  else  but  me  n  i  will  cut  u’
I  HAVE  A  BUNCH  OF  PLOTS  I  WANT  FOR  HER  SO  HMU  PLS  ON  DISCORD  OR  ON  HERE  N  I’LL  HARASS  U  W  MY  LOVEEEE

My Martial Arts Story (TKD)
2020.04.26
today i miss my dojang extra... i woke up from a dream where i was supposed to spar but didnt have my dobok?? and one of my instructors handed me a.. dobok skirt?? and i was like? and he was like yeah u right this isnt gonna work sdbsmdfjsdd i dont really ever have tkd dreams (i think bc i usually am always doing tkd) but since i stopped for a bit the dreams are coming out. it made me miss sparring so much :( so below i wanted to talk about my tkd story in more detail. Enjoy!
i've actually always been a martial arts nerd, but moved around/focused on studying too much to commit to one until recently. I was talking to my mom the other day and neither of us can really remember what got me into it. I just remember wanting to be able to defend myself and be/feel strong from a very young age, and i knew martial arts was a way to do that. As a girl I also received a lot of messages that my gender was ‘weak’ and needed ‘protection’, which i really didnt like (it made me hate being a girl for some time). This is why i wanted to try martial arts. I discovered taekwondo when I was around 10 years old at a small dojang in my hometown. I loved the school & the master, who I remember always had a bamboo stick he would play around with when the kids started being rowdy (he never hit anyone, it was just his way to say ‘dont fck with me’ haha). but had to stop going after yellow belt because i was the oldest out of all the kids and i tried to go to adult classes for a while but i remember not liking it because it was ‘too slow’ for me and my mom couldnt drive me to late night classes. I was swimming a lot at the time too (fun fact i almost competed in synchronized swimming as a kid but had to stop due to illness (am totally fine now and it wasnt bad dont worry)). 
I didn’t do any martial arts in middle school, and only had brief encounters when i started high school. I dabbled in kick boxing (which i still love) through an intense week long training while i was on holiday with family, and then did a bit of karate, for which sadly i had not such a great experience with the instructor which made me distance myself from the sport. The instructor brought up a heavy personal life event during class and i broke down (what did she expect i was like 15 and that event was really hard). When my mom picked me up, she shook her head to her and said ‘girls...’ in a very demeaning way, as if me crying because she re-awoke trauma was a result of ‘feminine weakness.’ i have not forgiven that person for that comment yet. she shouldn’t be a teacher if she treats students like that in my opinion. High school was very competitive and intense so i focused on studying and didnt really do sports then.
In college I really want to do more martial arts, but the lack of proper clubs or instructors made it difficult. I then went to study abroad in seoul and thought to myself if i dont try tkd again in the literal birthplace of the sport what am i doing with my life. i had good experiences with classes at uni; the two masters i had had very different personalities (one was very outspoken and funny while the other.. you could FEEL the power of tkd when he touched your arm slightly to place it correctly sdhfskdj he was very nice though). I had to stop because i was focusing on my academic projects though. 
i then graduated and moved to the city, where finally there were plenty of martial arts opportunities! the first thing i did after moving to the city, even before moving into my apartment, was to visit my current dojang. i audited a class and in my head was like ’oh my god i MUST join them right now give me a dobok let’s GO’. I signed up for classes that day. The dojang master (my dad. my father, the love of my life (in the most platonic way)) was a seoulite (we bonded over that) and realized I hadn’t started my job yet so he gave me a discount, which i felt incredibly surprised by and grateful for. I started lessons the next day. at my dojang beginners usually get 3 private classes at the beginning to get the basics down before joining the group. after my first, the instructor said that i was probably ready to go with the group if i felt comfortable doing so bc i already had basics. i went every day until i moved into my apartment, when i had a mental and physical breakdown and got really sick for a week (like.. i dont remember feeling this weak and sick my entire life). 
But thankfully i got better and pushed myself to go to dojang again. and it was hard. it was the summer and i hadnt used my body really in years, if ever at that level of practice. three times a week as Difficult for me, physically. i remember being frustrated that my ego wasnt satisfied haha (i thought i remembered a lot more than i did). but i loved the instructors a ton and practice was a great safe space/stress relief for the other sht that was going on my my life. I do remember that i was ready to graduate from white belt and start feeling better about my moves by the end of that summer (i was pretty frustrated that i couldnt do higher level moves, though mostly at myself). 
i finally got yellow stripe and tkd things went uphill from then. i got to know ppl at my dojang better, started to go to practice more progressively. I got my yellow belt and decided then that i wanted tkd to always be in my life as much as possible. I started going to practice every day or almost every day. my tkd friendships were developing, there were small disagreements too but overall i fell more and more in love with my instructors, the dojang master (again, my dad) and the sport. we laughed so much, sweat so much, lived well.
after green stripe, my self consciousness during practice spiked a bit more than usual. this is probs bc my life outside of tkd was stressful and i was looking at my friend fellow tkd members who were higher level more. i wasnt jealous of them, far from it, i just felt small compared to what they were able to achieve and felt bad that the instructor had to stop to explain the technique to me Again. in case it wasn’t clear, i am no prodigy; i learn slowly and with long consistent practice. the two disagreements i had with my closest member friends (two separate very different reasons; we kept things civil on both sides but having to deal with that was a new experience for me so i wasnt great at it haha) didnt help my anxiety shut up during practice. i still kept at it. in january my school has an attendance challenge where you win prizes if you go every day or more than 20 days out of the month. I almost made it, but got really physically tired & kinda sick 3 days before then end of jan and had to miss one session. i was also mentally drained by life stuff so i decided to prioritize grad school applications and did less tkd in february. but that experience of going every damn day was so fun; i realized I needed to do this so much more. if there was a tkd seminar where they send you off somewhere to to tkd for like 3 months i would be down. that is when i realized my love for the sport, and the significant changes in my body that had been occurring over the past months really revealed themselves. i hear you thinking there’s no way i could fall more in love with my instructors but guess what... spending every day with them really made the love Explode dudes. In jan and fed i also really started loving sparring, even though im not great at it. 
and then... march came. i got lucky to have been able to celebrate my birthday a few days before they decided to close my state down. at first i was still able to go to my dojang with smaller classes and different format of classes that respected health guidelines, but eventually everything was moved online. during that week of limited classes, i got to hang out with friend members and instructors for what would be, unbeknownst to me, one of the last times. one night after (6 feet no contact) starring, me, 2 friend members who also went very frequently and an instructor had a beer on the mats just talking and chilling. we said that we would do it again the week after. and then the state decided to shut down small businesses. i was helping the dojang transfer their classes to an online format with another student for a week (we two were the members with the highest attendance in the recent times), but then the instructors decided they should not let students come in anymore. 
i was angry, i was sad, i was devastated. it was the sound solution to take and all these closings are essential and needed for public health safety, but emotionally i was not ready to let go of the dojang. i was angry at the circumstances for taking away the one thing that i truly loved and kept me going all those months of less than ideal job situation and lost of existential questions. the dojang had been my challenge, my rock, my family. i was especially angry because i had to mourn the loss of it a lot earlier than i wanted; i was already supposed to leave in june of this year. the closer june came the more teary eyed i got when i thought of leaving the dojang, but after the news i had to stop going now... i broke down. i cried so hard and loudly, alone in my room. i realize now it was the first time in my life that i cried because of love. pure, unaltered love. i thought to myself ‘how lucky is it that i felt this amount of love for something and some people’. ive moved a lot in my life but rarely felt sad when leaving a place; i often had made my goodbyes and knew it was just time to go. there were few or no things keeping me back, or i knew i would find those things somewhere else. it was also the first time i had let myself fall in love with something and people only for me. i love studying and learning for example, but when i started doing it it was mostly to make my mom and family happy, not for me. i didn’t feel like i had had a passion that i completely gave in into, a truly ‘me’ thing no one asked me or expected me to do but i just did not to have a better resume or be perceived better by society. until tkd.
now, i am still following online classes but mostly have my own training routine because it’s still hard to deal with the emotional stuff; i dont really do to live classes cause it hurts. it probably sounds strange but ive already done the emotional work of distancing myself to make the leaving less difficult. i also didnt really like the the idea of practicing in my room in front of the camera. seeing the other students on zoom would also make me feel v sad. im slowly getting out of that state of mind though and might start taking online classes again in a bit when i can’t do my regular training routine. im not sure when things will go back to normal but before i leave i will definitely send them gifts and goodbye messages, probably by mail. but yeah as of now i mostly follow my dojang’s videos, do my practice routine, and scroll through tkd tricking videos on instagram to keep motivated.
it’s kind of a sad note to end on but my tkd story does not end here. wherever im headed next I will find another dojang where i will continue to practice. i can only hope it is half as good as the family i found here. and of course now I have this blog! and will continue nerding out about kicking endlessly hahaha.
thanks for reading if you made it this far! you can ask me questions if you’d like! also tell me your tkd story!! its so cool to hear how life lead people to kicking.

A/N: I tried, but this was hard. 
Moans (Kind of a smut)
“Hey baby” I whispered, as I silently walked into the bedroom.
“Are you awake?” I wasn’t quite sure if she was sleeping or not.
“Mmh” She grunted at my voice.
Okay, so half asleep. I laughed slightly at the sleepy noises escaping her mouth, while kicking my shoes off. She turned around in the bed, rubbing her drowsy eyes, looking up at me.
“How was the show?” y/n asked me, sending me a little smile.
I dropped down next to her in the bed, planting a kiss gentle kiss on the top of her messy hair. She smiled warmly back at me.
“Good, really loud”
“They’re always really loud, Shawn” She joked back, still half asleep.
“That’s true” I admitted, leaning back in the bed.
I let my fingers brush against y/n’s skin, feeling the heat in her cheeks. I loved her like this, completely pure and somehow emotionally naked.
Her hair was messy, her eyes dark and tired, her lips pink but a little dry. This would always be my favourite side of her. Lying in my bed, sleepy, tired and unravelling her flaws.  
“You smell good” She whispered at me.
“I took a shower after the show”
“I wanted to take a shower with you” She whined at me, making me smile widely.
“Sorry babe, next time”
“Now” She mumbled, but she was almost pulled back to sleep already.
I leaned down, kissing her burning lips mildly. I removed a tot of her hairs behind her ear, before caressing her earlobe. Oh, how I loved this one.
“You’re too tired tonight” I whispered, stroking her whimpering lip.
“But I want you”
“But you’re exhausted, love. You need some rest” I told her, finding her cold hand.
Y/N had joined me on tour about a month ago and it really seemed to drain her out. I get it though, when you aren’t used to it, traveling all over the world can be exhausting as hell. I was barely able to wake her up after the flight here, so I knew, she needed to sleep.
I wanted her to relax, allow her body to rest and regain strength. That’s also why I told her, to stay at the hotel tonight.
“Cuddle me then?” y/n muttered, reaching out for me. I laughed a little by her words, smiling widely.
I loved how she never got enough of me, like even if I’d just been gone a couple of hours, she had missed me deeply. She always craved more of me.
I covered my own body with the sheets, sliding down to her. She curled up beside me, wrapping her arms around me, while placing her head on my chest.
I cuddled her even further into me, placing small kisses on her hair. I couldn’t help but smile, as I continued to stroke her back.  
“I’m glad you back again, Shawn” She whispered, sending me a wide smile. I stroked her nose with my, kissing it quickly.
“Me too, baby. Me too” I whispered into her hair, smelling of that coconut shampoo she loved so much.
“Get some rest baby, you’re so tired” I worried about her, she nodded into my chest.
These moments - that we didn’t get to have so often - confirmed me over and over again, that home didn’t necessarily have to be four walls in a house, it could be two eyes and a beading heart as well. She felt like home to me.
I pulled y/n even closer to me, continuing to stroke her arm with my fingertips, kiss her shoulder and hug her tightly, until she dosed off in her sleep, finally relaxing for the first time in weeks.
I couldn’t fall asleep myself, because lying here, with her in my arms, while watching her sleep so peacefully, it made me happy. I could watch her all night and never get tired of it. I guess, that’s how much I love her.
I was pulled out of my sleep, when a few weird noises echoed in the hotel room. I turned around in the bed, still with y/n wrapped around me.
My body felt heavy, my eyes sore and I wasn’t quite sure if I was actually awake or not. I licked my lips, rubbing my eyes.
The more I woke up, the more the noises cut through to my ears. Did it sound like little… moans? Regaining most of my senses, I pushed myself up with my elbows, looking beside me. I couldn’t stop the smirk, that crossed my lips.
Y/N was sort of grinding against me in her sleep, letting little moans escape her trembling lips. Her cheeks were red and damp, her skin burning and steamy.
I would have killed to know, what she was dreaming about in this exact moment. I kinda hoped it was me, because the way she was grinding and those little whimpers from her lips; they belonged only to me.
Her legs were wrapped around my stomach, as she rubbed her lower body against mine in her heavy sleep.
The more I recovered from my sleep, the warmer I seemed to get. Having her move against my cold skin, touching me and sobbing silently, turned me on as hell.
I bit my lip, watching her lips quivering softly. I reached out to touch her face, letting my thumb slide down her lips, softly splitting them apart.
She breathed out against my finger, moaning once again. Holy fuck. The heat rushed to my cheeks, burning me up from the inside.
I felt my muscles become tense and my body craving her more than ever. Softly, I ran my hand down her back, leaving little chills on her skin. Biting my lip, I watched her move slowly against my bare skin.
How could she be so fucking hot while sleeping? I mean, she was giving me the biggest boner ever and she wasn’t even awake? Control yourself, Shawn.
Her hair had become damp and was sticking to her steamy neck, I had to fight the urge to bend down and kissed her neck roughly.
“Mhh, Shawn” y/n whimpered in her sleep.
It made a smug appear on my face rather quickly. So she was dreaming about me. Lying here, watching her like this, made me want to do so many things to her.
I felt myself getting hard, not being able to resists this for much longer. She’d had some sleep, a little midnight sex wouldn’t be too exhausting, would it? I let my hand stroke her cheek gently, turning her head to me.
“Baby?” I whispered softly.
“Mmh” She groaned back at me. I leaned down, planting a wet kiss on her burning lips. She immediately met my lips and kissed me back.
“Baby girl” I whispered into her wobbly lips. When I pulled back, her eyes were wide open.
“Shawn?” She stuttered, confused. She rubbed her eyes, looking around the dark room.
“I just had the best dream ever” She mumbled, smiling up at me.
“I bet you did” I smirked back at her.
She caught on to my smug, raising her eyebrow at me. She looked down at our bodies completely entangled with each other, letting her eyes reach my boner. She bit her lip, taking in a deep breath.
“Did I?” She stuttered, embarrassed.
“Rub against me? Yes. And you moaned my name in your sleep too” I teased her, watching her cheeks, if possible, turn even redder. She covered her face to hide from me, but it only made me laugh at her.
“That’s so embarrassing” She whined, covering herself into my chest.
“I think it’s fucking hot” I whispered back to her. She removed her hands, letting her eyes dart up to me.
“Really?” She rasped, gazing at me.
Her eyes were wide and dark and her lips were literally calling for my lips. I leaned down, closing the gap between our lips. She grabbed around my neck, pulling me further down to her.
I let my hands run down her body, leaving her skin quivering by my touch. I loved the power, I had over her when it came to this, I loved that touching her these places, could make her so weak.
“You were so fucking sexy and you didn’t even try” I whispered between kisses on her soft lips.
“Actually, I did try, when you got home. You just wouldn’t let me” She mocked me, rolling her eyes.
“Oh baby, I’ll let you now” I dared her, raising my eyebrow. Her smile grew and she tilted my head back with her thumb, starting to kiss me neck.
“Oh, game on, Mendes” She whispered against my skin.
“So how about that shower?” I said, biting her under lip. A little rasped slipped out of her lips. She got out of bed, leaving me behind.
“Well, are you coming?” She said, holding out her hand for me. I took her hand and she pulled me towards the bathroom.
