LUNA HAD NEVER BEEN GOOD at accepting anyone's kindness. There was no such thing as free lunch. Her level of distrust towards people was on a whole new level, but she somehow toned it down with him. Not wanting to overthink, she took his suggestion and followed him to the place he recommended. Arriving at the place, she looked around. The place was ordinary but clean. Not the type that would get attention from the media. No one would think she'd be in a place like this. It was exactly what she needed. "This is nice."

Ben always did his best to look out for people he felt needed it. It would have been all too easy for him to be taken advantage of when it came to his kindness. If she'd been just a block over, he never would have found her. "That's okay." And it was. He wouldn't push Luna to tell him anything she didn't want to, but he'd make sure she was taken care of all the same. Soon enough, they reached their destination. "This is it."

"THANKS FOR WORRYING, BUT I'M alright. I took a sleeping pill. Thought it didn't work, so I went out for a drink. Next thing I know, I was knackered. I guess I'm lucky a good person found me." Things may have gone wrong if someone else had found her. "Yes, discreetly." She nodded. "Oh no, it's not because of a boyfriend," she denied, waving off his concern. How could she explain that she was celebrity without fully exposing herself? "I just have a fussy parent who might worry about me." And by a fussy parent, she meant her manager. "You're no asshole. You've sort of saved my life, I guess."

"It's no problem," he murmured, "glad to see you awake though. You had me worried there for a little bit." Keaton hadn't expected the night to end with a strange woman in his bed, especially when he had slept on the couch. Swallowing, "discreetly?" He was confused at her request, unsure what she had meant by that, "if you've got a boyfriend or something, I'll tell him it was nothing, I swear," he interjected, thinking she probably had someone at home that was worried about her. "Would a cab be better? I just don't want to be an asshole," he gave her a small chuckle.

MAVIS' BROW ARCHED, READY TO counter any point he'd bring up, but nothing followed. Seemed like he gave up as he dismissed the subject with a nevermind. She didn't push the conversation, accepting her last say. "So impertinent," she teased. Mavis wasn't against the candy smuggling operation. If it made him happy, then he deserved it. After all, he didn't demand anything from her in return when he'd agreed to come here to help her. The least she could do was let him have this little treat. She took more candies and slipped them in her pocket. Usually, she wouldn't agree to this behavior. If Matthias had done it, she would have shamed him and scolded him, finding it childish. But doing this with Aster was fun. They were like a pair of miscreants who shared a secret. "My pockets are full," she declared with a nod. "Let's go." She linked her arms with his and led him to the isolated garden.

❝ what? no! that's the whole point of - nevermind... ❞ he tried to just get the point across that it's the little things that make the world go round, that the small indulgences can sometimes be way better than anything vetted in quality. guilty pleasures, in some cases. ❝ pft, you're talking to the smuggling expert, ❞ he whispers over, hands reaching for all of the smaller morsels first and stuffing them in the various pockets he's got on him. evenly, of course. she was right in the fact that he couldn't leave a gaping hole anywhere. his eyes widen with surprise and he pauses a moment, looking at her with lips parted. ❝ r-really? oh. th... thanks. um, yeah, we should be good for the next hour or something. let's go. ❞

"I SEE." VERNON NODDED IN understanding. It wasn't usual for Bethany to invite him over to a family gathering. He didn't take it badly. She might have been ashamed of how they were. Based on the stories she had shared, they had a lot of issues. He didn't judge. His own family wasn't that perfect. They also had their moments. "Alright then. Send me the details." It would be the first time he'd meet her family. He only knew one of her brothers, and that meeting went well. He wasn't nervous, but he wanted to make a good impression and assure them that their daughter was in good hands. "Well, it's time for you to hard launch me. If ever questions come up, is there anything that I shouldn't answer? Or should I just be honest and accept whatever they throw at me?"

" Yeah , it isn't exactly something that my family does often. However when it comes to celebrating someone they tend to go all out for it , so I am pretty confident it will be a fun time. " Bethany avoided bringing Vernon around her family and not because he is the issue but the opposite way around to be exact. Her family is a mess , and she'd like to keep that as far from their relationship as she possibly can. A smile forms upon the brunette's lips at his words. " I'll reach out to my parents tonight and get more information so I can let you know. " As much as she has been avoiding introducing him to her family a part of her can't wait to show off the male. " My family would think that I'm hiding you away from them if you weren't to come. You know how much I hate a million questions being asked that doesn't need to be. "

VERONICA HAD NEVER EXPECTED FOR the two of them to end up in a committed relationship. She had thought that they'd eventually get tired of each other and move on. She didn't expect anything from him, but Gill gave her hope. Aside from their chemistry and friendship, he treated her better than everyone she knew. "It wouldn't take a lot of convincing from you, handsome," Veronica quipped. She couldn't deny that Gill was her weakness. She would've done anything he asked, though she wouldn't admit that out loud. "That's good to know. She deserves a man who treats her well." Out of all his siblings, she liked Bethany the most. She had her shit together, and she was the nicest. She wasn't sure how it would go with the others, but she wasn't going to overthink it.

Part of Gill does hold a lot of guilt for stringing Veronica along for so long before he finally realized that she deserves better than being the woman that he is casually sleeping with. That she deserves a stable relationship and that is exactly what he plans to give her. The two have known one another since they were teenagers and maybe they would mess around from time to time , but continuing it into adult hood is a completely different ball game. Gill finally woke up and accepted the fact that he is in love with her and has been for awhile. Just too afraid and selfish to admit it not only to himself but her as well. Bringing her along for such a celebration and meeting family is huge for both of them , and this is his way of showing her that he is serious about her. That he wants to make sure that this works out and no one gets hurt. " Glad to hear I didn't have to do too much convincing. " A teasing smirk forming upon his lips. " Between you and I , Bethany has always been the one sibling with their shit together. After a couple of terrible relationships i am glad that she has found a man that respects her in more ways than one. "

I FOUND THIS IN SOMEONE'S RULES, AND IT'S RELEVANT

I like to know my writing partner. This isn’t always necessary, and if you’re not the sort of person who tries to get chummy with their roleplaying buddies, that’s absolutely fine, but in my experience, the plots and characters that last the longest are the ones with the players that I can message at 3 in the morning with an idea without feeling like I’m bothering them.

THERE WAS NO GOING BACK now. Arya's inhibition completely dissipated. Totaling and vandalizing an ex's car wasn't a terrible idea. She couldn't care less of the risks. Their handshake sealed the deal. "Just so you know, you might get implicated, in case I get caught," she quipped, following him to the exit.

Deal. The words were like music to his ears, smirking while nodding his head in response. "Deal." He confirmed, shaking her hand willingly, before burying it back into the pocket of his trousers. "Alright, you can get in my car." He told her, stepping backwards towards the exit, "It's parked right around back."

EDWIN NOTED HOW EVASIVE HARLOW was, steering away from the subject about her mysterious condition. Her avoidance made him want to probe more but he let go of the subject. He didn't want to scare her off and strain their relationships further. Even though she looked okay, accepting the situation, everything felt off. Love. It was odd for her to bring it up. He didn't think he'd ever love anyone. Sure, he was going to marry a childhood friend, and he loved her as a friend, but not in a romantic and devotional way. The closest he had ever felt love for someone was with Harlow, and the realization hit him this instant. "Right," he said dryly. "Well, get checked and take care of yourself."

Harlow wanted to change the subject between them as quickly as possible in hopes to deflect whatever attention she might draw to herself with how she was feeling due to her.. condition. After all, Edwin of all people knew her well, but he was also the last person she could and would ever want to tell. Especially now. It wouldn't change anything anyway, he was already destined for someone else. "Duty.." She repeated, "And in time, I am sure love." She added hopefully for him, though her heart slightly ached at the though. "Yes, I insist." She confirmed, "It is nothing, don't worry about it."

SEREN COULD TELL THAT LEDGER already had it all planned. She appreciated his efforts to make it possible. She had only planned a nice proposal and dinner for the both of them. She never thought that it would turn into a getaway but it was a nice bonus. Warmth emanated through her body from his gentle touch. "I'm lucky for having the best." She beamed. Pulling a way, she took a sip of wine. A few moments later, their food arrived.

Ledger nodded, "Of course." He told her. He wasn't about to let this opportunity go to waste when they didn't need for it to. The arrangements had already been made and agreed upon. With the pad of his thumb, she gently caressed the skin at the back of her hand. "I know, right?" He smirked back at her, "But you only deserve the best, so if the shoe fits." He winked before reaching for his wine to take a sip.

FOR MOST OF ABRAHAM'S LIFE, happiness was something unattainable. It was almost impossible for him to get it. Meeting Verity and falling in-love with changed that belief, in a good way. He didn't think it was possible for one person to make him happy but she existed, and she was the best thing that ever happened to him. "Good to know that nothing much had changed. I was starting to worry that we've lost our edge." But of course, things were far from it. He groaned as she teasingly captured his lower lip. She left him wanting more when she pulled away. "I think we can celebrate and have dessert."

The almost overwhelming feeling of happiness continued to work its way through her being, an unfamiliar sensation that she hadn't felt in a very long time. The foreign sensation was starting to become familiar whenever she was in his presence however, even more so now when he had made her a promise for a life time together. "I don't think that is a page we ever disagreed on." She playfully jested. Kissing him back, she captured his lower lip teasingly, before pulling away. "Hm I mean, I am up for celebrating some more." She told him, "The night is still young, right?"

"YOU'RE WELCOME." VICTOR SAT ACROSS from her and took a sip of his coffee. "I gotta help you out, or it would weigh on my conscience." Even with the option not to help out, he couldn't leave her alone in the state she was in. Someone might take advantage of her, and he couldn't let that happen. He considered himself a decent person who'd do the right thing. "You're welcome." Knowing that she needed the painkillers, he handed the one he had ready for her. "Here you go." He was relieved to hear that the breakfast selection he picked suited her taste. "Yeah, you have to eat well. You can also freshen up after if you want." As the other helped herself to breakfast, he finished his plate and his coffee. "Pleasure to meet you. I'm Victor," he said, introducing himself in return. "No, you didn't ruin my night. In fact, it was entertaining to see you knackered," he quipped. The teasing should serve as an ice breaking, reassuring her.

The realization that she was still in the same outfit from last night had only just hit her. Definitely not her best first impression. The smell of fresh coffee was like heaven. "Thanks," she smiled as she took the mug as it was handed to her. "Well that's a relief. And good to know there's still some decent people around." She was grateful that he'd taken care of her and she certainly noticed how cute he was, too. "Some ibuprofen for my headache would be nice, if it's not too much trouble." He'd already done more than enough for her, she didn't want to awkwardly overstay her welcome with a perfect stranger. She made herself a plate once he mentioned the food. "This is good, think I'll feel a bit better after I eat something." She took her time eating breakfast with an occasional sip of coffee in between, not wanting to make herself sick but also due to her intrigue about this kind guy she'd never met before. "I'm Justine, by the way. Hope I didn't ruin your night... I'm pretty sure there were tequila shots involved last night and that fucked me up." she mused with a small chuckle.

MICHAEL SAW HER DESPERATION. CLARA clearly needed this, and while her inexperience was none of his business, he couldn't help but consider helping her. She had boldly asked them, so they had to give her that. Money was the main reason why they had gotten into this type of work. It wouldn't make sense for them to compromise yet they found themselves saying otherwise. "I guess I can give you a discount," he said considerately. "We can just split 24 hours into 6 sessions, 4 hours each." This was unusual for him to offer to anyone. He had always been straightforward with his arrangements.

Anxiety swirled in her stomach as she waited for Michael's response, fully convinced that he was going to reject her proposal. It was probably weird that his neighbor was even asking for something like this, but logically it made sense! He must be good at this and she trusted him. "Right..." she murmured, processing what he said. "Um... well I can't really afford more than one session with you." Clara frowned as she chewed on her lip. "Can it just be a crash course then? And I can go practice on my own with other dates or something!"

"DOING MY BEST AND TAKING steps to fully get there. One at a time." Edwina smiled bleakly. It was difficult to keep her head above water. She did everything to distract herself. Every time she was alone with her thoughts, her feelings came crashing down on her, reminded of everything she had lost. Of Vincent. "Glad that I was missed." All this marriage and pregnancy news were a lot. She felt behind. Everyone was moving forward with their lives positively, unlike her. She was still stuck, defined by that one moment, that mistake. "That's good to know. Seems like things are going great for everyone."

         She didn't really mind Victor and Giannina dating. People would most likely find it odd how unbothered she was; it was her ex-fiancé and best friend, after all. But there were other matters that ate away at her. Like Vincent and the state of their relationship. She needed to see him and talk to him. She was here with Gia yet her mind was elsewhere. Snapping out of her musings, she reminded herself where she was at the present moment. "No, I'm really fine with your relationship. I mean it," she assured her. "Me and Victor are not meant to be. We've had our eye on other people. What happened at the party was terrible, but it opened our eyes and made us realize what we really want. If our wedding pushed, we'd both be miserable. We would've ended up like Edwin and Fleur." She drew a deep breath. "It can't be helped. You can't control what your heart wants. Same goes for me."

Giannina wasn't expecting that Edwina would come back completely okay after what had happened at her engagement party. Be honest who would be? " Progress is better than none , and I am glad that you got yourself to a place that you are back now. I've missed you. " Gia spoke in a soft and sweet tone even though a part of her feared having to come clean to the blonde about her relationship with Victor. " That is definitely one way to put the whole situation. " Well you already know that Kimberly is pregnant , well it turns out that Josephine and Lucien are also having a baby. I kind of question if it is the reason they did their own marriage in secret?! Flynn and Madelaine they're having another one too. Now the last one was an accidental slip so no one can know , but Fleur is also pregnant. " Giannina had no doubts that Edwina would keep the last one to herself , and she can only hope that Fleur wouldn't hate her for telling their best friend about the surprising news. It felt like a weight definitely had been lifted off of her the moment that she had come clean to Edwina about the fact that she and Victor made the choice to be more than people that slept together ... alot. " Are you sure? You know that you can be honest with me about how you're truly feeling and I won't take it to heart. " Giannina can't help but make sure that her friend isn't only saying those words because she is fearful of hurting her feelings. Brunette would much rather the other being hurtful honest than lie to her. " I didn't mean to fall in love with , Victor. I just happened ... "

VICTOR AND GIANNINA SLEEPING TOGETHER was a surprise, but it wasn't really impossible. He couldn't deny that Victor was charming in his own right. He was intelligent, kind and handsome. The complete package. Victor reached everyone's standards, and he was better than him in every way. The only reason he didn't pull a lot of women was because of him not putting himself out there. "Probably. He's always been picky with women. And yes, she is hot. We slept together because there was attraction but that was all water under the bridge. I'm a different person now, and I'd rather not revisit my womanizing history." He was a one-woman man now. He didn't want to give Kimberly any reason to be insecure. "I don't know how her brain is wired. Edwina's logic is a mystery." He shrugged.

         Frederik's remark prompted him to smile. "Thanks for having faith in me, mate." He appreciated hearing it from his best friend. Everyone around him hadn't been supportive with his decisions except Frederik. He was truly a loyal and solid one. "You're going to make a great godfather." He grinned. "Dating has been bleak for everyone lately, and everyone's picky now, but don't lose hope. You'll find the one when it's the right time." He patted his shoulder consolingly.

Fredrik hadn't been all too worried about the possibility of being kicked out of the inner circle. To him Edwin will always be his best friend even if he does do questionable things sometimes. Sure i the beginning he had been extremely hurt and blindsided by the fact that Edwin had been hooking-up with the femme that he originally had been interested in. However if he is happy with her than Fredrik knew that he could put those feelings aside and be happy for the both of them. Even if the others couldn't. " I don't know man , but I think Victor sleeping with Giannina opens everything up for a whole new ball game. Cause obviously he has to be attracted to her to want to cross that line with her right? You slept with her because you thought she was hot right? " The whole Gia situation had become one everyone avoided talking about but for reasoning wise Fredrik felt like he could bring it up. " Whatever the reason is , I find it oddly strange she wants to burn you and Kimberly at the stake for cheating. Yet is fine with it happen between her best friend and fiancé? " The male raises a brow. The male can't wrap his mind around the idea that this time for real that Edwin would be becoming a father. Coming from the family that he did , Fredrik knew that having children are major deals. However the way he has gone about it isn't exactly the ideal way not just for someone or royalty but in general. " Well , I want you to know that I think you're going to be a great dad to him or her. " Part of the male felt like the other needed to hear those words come from someone else other than Kimberly. " Lets be real for a moment , Edwin. When was the last time that there has been an actual woman interested in me? I'll just let the crickets do their chirping to fill in the silence ... "

GUINEVERE GRINNED, SATISFIED BY HER girlfriend's answer. "Right. But are you really the one showing off when I'm with a stunner?" she quipped, winking at her in return. She finished getting ready, changing into a white long sleeved romper and beige sandals, her hair tied in a ponytail. The other's compliment prompted her to beam. "No, you're hotter." She followed her to the door, and linked her arm with hers.

Diana rolled her eyes playfully at her, “Of course I miss you. But by getting to show you off that also means I need to be present to do so. It’s a win-win.” She winked. Scrolling on her phone in the group chat, Di looked at her when she returned, letting a soft whistle out from underneath her breath while she stood up. “Look at you! You look hot!” She smirked, “Yes, let’s!” She agreed before she headed for the door.
