DannyMay 2022. Day Four

"Videotape"

Ao3 FFN

Summary: In the cursed school of Casper High, a box is unearthed, within it, a ray of hope shines.

Crossover with the anime Another. Contains BIG, HEAVY spoilers for the anime, namely the origin of the curse, the way it works, and how to stop it. No actual character spoilers tho.

WARNING: For descriptions of death and murder. And some swearing.

- - -

Transcript from the video found in an unmarked USB drive, sealed in a Ziploc bag and buried in a metal box next to Casper High's memorial.

The video starts by showing the face of a girl in her teen years, with black hair and violet eyes. Here eyeliner was smudged, running down her cheeks following the path of dry tears, her eyes are red.

GIRL: This is Sam Manson, second year Casper High student from class C.

Sam stops talking and purses her lips in a bitter smile.

SAM: Yeah, the cursed class. So you probably know how this is going to go.

She stands up and steps back from the camera, sitting down in what becomes clear is a classroom.

SAM: [Sigh] I- I'm recording this because- [Sob] because I can't really tell anyone what happened. What I did. Because they won't actually care; their memories already changed, and even now I can feel mine do the same.

SAM: Besides... I don't wanna face what I did. What it cost to break- to pause the curse.

She looks intensely at the camera.

SAM: So if you are watching this, if you went through the trouble of digging this up, it means you're desperate. And you have to be desperate enough to... to go through with it.

SAM sniffles and looks to the side.

SAM: I guess I should start from the very beginning, with how our curse started.

There is a pause, where SAM breathes in and slowly lets it out.

SAM: It all started twenty years ago, with a trio of friends. Jack, Maddie and Vlad. They were the best of friends, a trio of weird, unpopular kids that only each other liked. They were weirdly obsessed with death and ghosts —as in, "I'll study this when I grow up"—, so it's no wonder things ended up like they did.

She sighs heavily and rubs her face with both hands, tired.

SAM: There was an accident. They were working on a science project, I don't really know the details, but I think they were in their second year, right here in Casper. It went awfully bad, that thing blew up in Vlad's face, and I mean that literally, it exploded right in the moment Vlad was doing maintenance, it scarred his face, put him in a comma, and he died a few weeks later. Lancer —the professor that told this to us— had just started teaching when this happened, and he said that Vlad's death affected the whole school, specially his class, but the Fen- Jack and Maddie more than anyone. So much that they didn't even move on from the denial stage of grief.

The recording glitches for a second, but then goes on as if nothing.

SAM: They refused to accept their friend was dead, and pretended he was still there with them, going to classes, having lunch, hanging out... goes to show the need for therapy, but anyway. Lancer said, that the other students felt pity for them, or they disliked the way the school felt after Vlad died, but whatever the reason, soon the whole class had joined in, and pretended everything was alright, to the point that Lancer himself joined them.

SAM pauses for a second, looking tired, and sighs.

SAM: That's really fucked up, man. Nothing happened to them, that year or their next, but once their generation graduated and another one came in, the curse set in, and students or their relatives began dying. The reigning theory is that after the Vlad incident, our class was... marked... as one that welcomes the dead, and every year, there is a student that is a ghost, someone that died before classes started, but no one remembers... not even the ghost themselves. Reality gets warped, school records change, pictures, videos... honestly, I don't know if this thing will be complete or coherent when you find it. I sure hope so, for your sake; I'll put it in a... special container, in any case.

The video glitches again.

SAM: No one remembers who died, and that's the thing, not even Death remembers who died, so it kills us at random until it hits the mark.

There is bitterness in her voice and her lips curl up in a sneer.

SAM: Fucking idiot can't do its one fucking job right and we get fucked over for it.

There is a crash as something breaks off-camera, but SAM doesn't flinch, only glares towards it with the fury of a thousand suns, and after a moment where nothing happens, she continues.

SAM: And now comes the worst part, for me, at least. If you have been paying attention, you know where this is going. It sucked for me and it will suck for you.

SAM's eyes begin to water, and she takes deep breaths. She carries on.

SAM: The only way to... to pause the curse for your class, not to stop it, because a freshman died a few days ago, is by returning the dead to Death. You have to find out who is the ghost in your class, and kill them.

SAM's lips tremble, and her shoulders shake.

SAM: I know this because that's what I did, two weeks ago.

A tear runs down her cheek. The video glitches.

SAM: Our curse was getting worse; the deaths were happening more often, they were bloodier, and the "ignore one kid" method had stopped working when Mikey —our "kid—, died... we still don't know if that was because of the curse, or just another unfortunate death... we were running out of time, and had no more ideas, so we just tried our luck and went to this old church outside Elmerton. It's just a fucking tourist trap, but we needed anything to hope; fuck, I'm Jewish and I went anyway.

She closes and opens her fists where they rest in the hem of her skirt.

SAM: We were praying and shit, when Tucker —my friend who knows a lot about technology— said he had found a weird wifi signal, with a name he recognized, so we went to check it out...

SAM: That church we went to, it has this stupid statue of a Saint or something, and its eyes are supposed to shine really bright in a certain way when something divine happened- I don't know! But lo and be-fucking-hold, there was a fucking panel of control, connected to the lightning system in the statue and... and stuck there, was mister Lancer, choked by several cords, dead... we didn't know how he ended up like that, or when did he get separated from us, but there he was... we freaked out, Tucker ran to alert the others, and Danny- [Sob] our... our other friend, stayed behind with me. He wanted to get Lancer out of there, show respect for him. I told him we should just leave and run away... we started arguing, started yelling at each other... we were very fucking stressed, and taking out on each other, and when push came to shove—

SAM's voice breaks, and she starts crying openly now.

SAM: I pushed him! Right towards Lancer and that fucking hazard of a panel and- and it killed him! Electrocuted him to death...

SAM sobs, and tries to stop the flow of tears with her hands, but only smears more her eyeliner.

SAM: I killed Danny. I killed my best friend. And then I remembered, it wasn't the first time I had done that...

SAM: The summer before our freshman year, Danny's parents, Jack and Maddie Fenton, had built this... thing, they wanted it to be a portal to the afterlife, they wanted to find ghosts, still. But it didn't work, because of course it didn't. So we went to check it out, because I wanted to. I convinced Danny to get inside it to take him a picture, and I don't know why or how... it turned on, with Danny inside. The portal electrocuted him to death, and I didn't remember until it happened again, until I killed him for a second time.

Tears keep running down her face, but SAM is no longer sobbing. She just has a resigned expression on her face as she stares off into the distance.

SAM: I ran to find Tucker, and found the class getting ready to go. Scared. I told him what had happened, how I killed Danny again but... he didn't remember. He only remembered Danny as some kid we used to hang out with when we were little, not as our best friend we had seen die on his basement, or the classmate that had been with us since our first year. So I took him to see his body... but it wasn't there anymore, only Lancer's.

SAM: He- he thinks I've gone crazy from everything, but I know I'm not because since that day, no one else has died, neither a student nor a relative. It's all as it should be... and I hate it.

SAM: So there you have it. To break the curse, you have to kill the extra student. No matter who it is... not matter how much they deserve to live... more than you, or your classmates. Look for someone with gaps in their memory, try finding any records... don't fall into panic... and try not to die.

SAM stands up tiredly and walks towards the camera, presumably to turn it off, but before she can reach it, the video glitches once again, and the dark figure of a boy with his whole body burnt and covered in Lichtenberg figures appears behind her, icy blue eyes staring right at her.

SAM's hand reaches the camera, and the video ends.

Holly fuck that’s probably the longest fic I’ve written yet. When I finally finish this (which will be in a long while) I’m probs gonna ask for someone to beta it so it’s better.

Some thoughts:

This portal is still a safety hazard and that’s why it kills Danny. It doesn’t actually work and that’s why Danny doesn’t come back. Danny died because Jazz’s was in the cursed class and Death got to him.

SPOILER: I had other ideas on how this could go down, with a counselor Vlad being the Another to parallel better the anime, and having the OG ghost back again. Or maybe Jazz.

Mikey did die in a normal, non-cursed way. It was a tragedy not only because he was so young, but because it unleashed the curse again.

Lancer died in that church in Elmerton even though they were outside Amity at the time because in my head, a long time ago Elmerton actually used to be part of Amity Park, but it became its own city/town at some point, but the curse doesn’t care.

Should I tag as ambiguous ending?

omg hi akskkskjskskks how have you been, alex? sooo, i've re read ALL of your works for the 127th time in the last three days, as the mentally insane person that i am aaaand i found it cute that you've inserted cute lil things like ice cream (ah yes the good old pistachio and cookies & cream), long eyelashes, jungwoo being the best cupid (and a few like that but honestly i can't even remember rn TT i was giggling while listing out all of those lil things @ 3 am last night tho) have a as snippets in almost all your works TT

nostalgia hit hard when i was reading the older fics 🥲 i can't quite remember but the first one that i've read of yours was either planet girl/seven letters, and you've written alot of masterpieces since then and i'm so proud of you TT you're my favorite writer in the whole damn universe ngl (that was cheesy but i mean it) aaaand ily akskkakalakjska do you have any book recommendations?? i'm aching to find good books but the modern romance books that i've come across make me feel like i hate romance (when i'm a literally a hopeless romantic) 😩

aaaand i really hope that you're doing great! (would love to hear about what's going on in your life cause i'm nosy) and how's your dog (...i forgot his name but what i didn't forgot is, how cute he was! i feel like the name starts with m...) and sorry for going on and on 🤡 i just felt like it wouldn't be fair not rambling about how much i love your works after re reading all of those masterpieces. have a good day!

hi love! i've been doing well! just super busy with life lol how have you been?

yes i love having cute little details. i'm not sure why but i always pick jungwoo as the cupid—there's just something about him that's giving cupid or like the matchmaker friend kjsdhdf and yes! jaehyun's long eyelashes! they are honestly my favourite little thing about him.

hehe yeah, i read my old fics from time to time. it was the time during covid and i had nothing to do with all the free time i had jkshfdf honestly, i look back and reminisce those times because i was so motivated and i was always writing when i had the time. but nowadays i've been struggling to find the time to write, which is kind of sad lol because there are so many ideas i have occupying my brain but i just don't have the time to sit down and write it :(

book recommendations! i haven't been reading lately but my all time favourite romance books are from emily henry hehe 'people we meet on vacation' is hands down my favourite romance book I WOULD HONESTLY RE-READ IT that's just how much i love it

and my dog! you remembered! his name is maui hehe, he turned three last month! he's a spoiled kid because my parents and i love him so much lol.

in regards to what's going on in my life, there's not much LOL. my boyfriend and i are reaching our first anniversary next month! i'm super happy and excited.. i already got my gifts for him :') also it's weird how we're only reaching one year of being together when we've known of and danced around each other for years (literally since i was still in high school.. but that's another story for next time if you're interested lol) but that's my life update! lol my life is so boring sjkdhf

thank you for dropping by love! i love getting asks from yall because i genuinely love catching up and seeing if everyone's keeping well hehe

Steph's Crew - Part 24: Finals Season!

Intro:

Exam season is really hitting these kids at this point!

Welcome back to the show, folks. Today we'll be following Stephanie as she sits her final exams. I can't remember which subject this one was (I know it's something science-y tho lol).

Ben is also back again in this part! Like, physically, he returns to London to visit his girlfriend. It's sweet (but they kind of fight here... which isn't fun)!

We get a bit of closure on the Dylan family drama arc here too.

Have fun!

Exam season

(Stephanie walks into school at 10:30AM. She heads straight to the common room and puts her bag on the nearest table. Then she checks the time. She still has a few hours to get herself ready for her exam this afternoon. As she starts getting out her revision resources, some of her friends and classmates start coming in)

Alice: Hey, girl.

Stephanie: Hi!

Alice: How are you feeling about Psychology later?

Stephanie: Uuuughh… don't even ask me. How about you?

Alice: I don't know… this'll probably sound weird, but I'm kind of excited, almost.

Stephanie: What, for real?!

Alice: Yeah! I mean, I'm scared, too.

Stephanie: Right.

Alice: But I also just want to get it over with, you know? Like, I want to just do it! I want to get it done.

Stephanie: Yeah, yeah. That makes sense.

Alice: The past two years have all come down to this moment.

Stephanie: Yeah…

Alice: No pressure or anything.

Bret: (bursts in) Hey.

Alice and Stephanie: Hey.

Bret: Do either of you have a charger?

Stephanie: I should do. Hang on. (rummages around in her bag for one)

Alice: You excited for your exam, Bret?

Bret: Excited?!

Alice: What? I'm excited.

Bret: The only thing I'm excited about is the fact that I'll be done with all this crap next Monday.

Stephanie: Got it. (passes her charger to Bret)

Bret: Thanks, Steph. (charges his phone, then checks the time) I'm due to go soon.

Alice: What time does your exam start?

Bret: 11.

Alice: Oh. Well, you should probably head off now, then. So you don't get there late by accident.

Bret: Good idea. Bye, ladies! (stands up and leaves) Good luck with your exams!

Stephanie: You, too!

Alice: He… forgot all his stuff.

Stephanie: (laughs) I can't believe him sometimes. (picks up his pencil case)

Alice: Should we go after him?

(Almost immediately after this, Bret comes rushing back)

Bret: I forgot all my stuff!

Alice: Yeah, we know.

Stephanie: (giggles) Here you go, Bret.

(She hands him the pencil case. As he takes it, their hands touch accidentally. The two stare at each other for an awkward moment, before Bret remembers he actually has somewhere to be)

Bret: Thanks, Steph. Bye again! (leaves)

Stephanie: (calls after him) Bye! Good luck.

Alice: Uh… you guys good?

Stephanie: What do you mean?

Alice: That weird staring contest.

Stephanie: I don't know what you're referring to.

Alice: Come on, Steph. I thought you two didn't like each other like that.

Stephanie: I didn't! (pauses) I don't, I mean.

Alice: So what was that about, then?

Stephanie: I don't know…

Alice: Figure it out, then. Because this cannot happen. The both of you are taken.

Stephanie: I know.

Alice: He's your best friend's boyfriend. El is amazing. You love her, she loves you.

Stephanie: I know…

Alice: You have Ben.

Stephanie: I know!

Alice: Who's also amazing, and has done nothing to deserve being strung along. If anything were to happen between you and Bret, it could mess literally everything up within our group.

Stephanie: I am aware of all of this stuff, thank you.

Alice: You're welcome.

Ben comes back

(Stephanie gets home after sitting her Psychology paper. She slumps on the sofa and sighs. It was really hard, and she's just relieved that it's over. Suddenly, she hears a knock on the door. She goes over to answer, and is overjoyed at who it is)

Stephanie: BEN!

Ben: Hey! (gives Stephanie a hug) Thanks for acting surprised, babe.

Stephanie: I did promise you I would.

Ben: I've missed you.

Stephanie: I've missed you more.

Ben: Doubtful.

(The two start kissing. Stephanie stops when her phone pings in her pocket. She picks it up, finding that she has a new message from Elise. It said: "HEY, sweetie!! How was Psychology today? I'm sure you did great <3")

Stephanie: Aw.

Ben: What?

Stephanie: It's Ellie. Hang on. (she texts back: "Thank you, love. Good luck with History tomorrow xx")

Ben: What's it about?

Stephanie: Oh, El was just checking in after the exam.

Ben: Oh, yeah! How was that?

Stephanie: It was alright, you know.

Ben: Yeah?

Stephanie: Yeah. I think I'm handling exam season fairly well.

Ben: That's what we like to hear.

(Five minutes later, Ben and Stephanie are sitting on the balcony, drinking tequila shots and catching up on life. The sun is starting to set, and there's a gentle breeze in the air. It's a calm, peaceful atmosphere)

Ben: So, yeah. That's why Dani left.

Stephanie: Oh, no!

Ben: Yeah. I'm really going to miss her.

Stephanie: I mean, at least you got a promotion out of it.

Ben: I guess. But I can't do Dani's thing like how she did it.

Stephanie: Then don't. You don't have to, you know. Be you. Nobody can do anything like how you can, either. So just be yourself. Everyone else is taken.

Ben: Ok, quote book. Thanks.

Stephanie: You're welcome.

Ben: So, what's new with you?

Stephanie: Uh… I've been thinking of colouring my hair?

Ben: Oh, really?

Stephanie: Yeah. I feel like I could do with a new look.

Ben: What colour do you have in mind?

Stephanie: I'm not sure yet. I want something bold, though. Something crazy. Something really dramatic and powerful. Something… special, you know? Unique.

Ben: Just like you!

Stephanie: Oh, stop…

Ben: I mean it. (pauses, thinks about it) How about purple? I feel like purple is just you as a colour.

Stephanie: You think?

Ben: Yeah! It suits you. Your vibe. Kind of depends on the shade you pick, though.

Stephanie: Yeah.

(A silence falls upon them)

Stephanie: What's up?

Ben: Nothing. I've just missed this. Just sitting here and chatting about nothing with you for hours.

Stephanie: Well, we can do this every single day while you're here. Catch you up on all the sessions you've missed. How long will you be here for?

Ben: Just for this week. I'll be heading back on Saturday.

Stephanie: …Oh. Right.

Ben: I wish it could be for longer, but this was all I was able to get.

Stephanie: You don't need to explain yourself to me, Ben.

Ben: I'm sorry.

Stephanie: You don't need to apologise to me either.

Ben: Right. Um… so. How do you feel? What do you think about this?

Stephanie: Why did you have to take that damn job, Ben?

Ben: What?!

Stephanie: This long-distance thing is just ruining everything!

Ben: Oh, my God. Steph, what the- why are you being like this?!

Stephanie: I can't DO this anymore, Ben! It's just so hard! Having to deal with everything on my own ALL the time…

Ben: Babe…

Stephanie: Only getting to see you for a few days at a time… sometimes not being able to reach you, due to time zone differences…

Ben: Steph, calm down.

Stephanie: You know, when you and I first got together, I thought, "Great! I've found this smart, strong, kind person that I can depend on." A real gentleman.

Ben: Aw…

Stephanie: But you know what, Ben? I find it hard to depend on someone that just isn't here for me.

Ben: I'm always here for you, Steph! I've always been here for you-

Stephanie: But you're not, are you?! You're not… you're always there. And I can't deal with that anymore. I just can't.

Ben: What are you saying? You want to break up?

Stephanie: No, of course I don't WANT to break up. But I don't know. Maybe we should- (pauses, thinks for a moment) maybe I should go back with you!

Ben: … What?!

Stephanie: Why not? It could be great!

Ben: I… I don't know-

Stephanie: What's the problem, Ben? You don't want to live with me anymore? Is that it?

Ben: No, no. Of course not! It's just… you're not done with school yet.

Stephanie: I basically am. I'm sitting my final exams. I'm not actually attending classes anymore.

Ben: You're not done with your exams yet, though!

Stephanie: Oh, whatever. Grades don't matter in the real world… when you think about it.

Ben: These qualifications are important, Steph!

Stephanie: Are they, actually?

Ben: If you want basically any job these days, then yes!

Stephanie: I think you're saying no because you're afraid of saying yes.

Ben: I think having fears here is valid. I want you to make the best of yourself. I want you to have all your options open. You can't do that if you basically walk away from your final examinations.

Stephanie: You know, you are beginning to sound an awful lot like El.

Ben: Well you know what? Elise has common sense. So I don't take offence to that.

Stephanie: Uuugh, why are you being so boring?!

Ben: Because I love you! I care about you, and your grades. I want you to have a good future!

Stephanie: I know! I know… you know what? We shouldn't make any big decisions now. Let's just sleep on it.

Ben: Good idea.

Stephanie: We can discuss it tomorrow? I'm free all day.

Ben: Yeah. Let's talk about it then.

Stephanie: Cool.

Calling home

(The next day, Stephanie wakes up early. She sneaks out of bed as quietly as possible, so she doesn't wake Ben up. Then she leaves the room and goes straight to the kitchen. She decides on cereal for breakfast. Once she's fixed it, she sits on the sofa and starts eating for a bit. Then she gets the idea to call her foster father, John)

John: (on the phone) Hello? Who is this?

Stephanie: Hi, John.

John: Stephanie?! Why are you calling me? What is this?

Stephanie: I'm doing great, thanks for asking.

John: I thought Miranda and I made ourselves clear.

Stephanie: You did. "Never show your face here again" is what you said. You can't see my face, can you?

John: I… wait. So you didn't lose our numbers?

Stephanie: No.

John: So the entire time you were gone, you could've called us?!

Stephanie: If I wanted to, yeah. But I didn't, so.

John: I can't believe you, Stephanie.

Stephanie: Didn't you want to know the point of this phone call, John?

John: Right, go ahead.

Stephanie: I just wanted you to know that I'm thinking of moving away. Like, far, far away. So I'll never bother your family ever again. And I'm sorry to have caused you so much pain already.

John: Oh. Ok.

Stephanie: (sighs) What I said before I left was out of order, John. You and especially your wife aren't perfect parents, but obviously, nothing I did was your fault. I just feel like you deserve to hear that. And well, when you think about it, is it even possible to be a "perfect parent?"

John: Look, Stephanie. I appreciate everything you're saying right now, but-

Stephanie: Let me finish. The fact that I never felt like I belonged wasn't really your fault, either. If anything, that's a me problem. I've always just been so confused… who I am, why I am the way I am, where in the world I belong… I have all these questions, but no clue what the answers are to them. I've been through a lot of different homes, families, schools, friends. I've never truly found a place that properly fit. And I don't know if that place even really exists.

John: And that makes everything ok, does it?

Stephanie: Wha- John, I-

John: Save it. Stephanie, I don't know what you want me to do here. What is the point of any of this?!

Stephanie: I don't know, John. I'm leaving you. Possibly forever, and I guess I just assumed that you'd appreciate the fact that I at least bothered to say goodbye this time. I thought I'd give you that. A goodbye. An explanation. Closure.

John: What makes you think I want anything from you anymore?

Stephanie: Well, wasn't that what you've been angry about this whole time?

John: Well, yeah. It was. Before I found out what you did to my Mel.

Stephanie: Ok. I told you, that was an accident.

John: So you say!

Stephanie: It was!

John: Even so, that doesn't change anything! That doesn't change the fact that my daughter is gone, and she's never coming back. I'll never be able to see her again, hold her again, talk to her, hear her voice! She's gone… and it's all your fault.

Stephanie: Thank you for re-establishing that.

John: Goodbye, Stephanie.

Stephanie: WAIT!

John: What?!

Stephanie: You won't tell anyone, will you?

John: What?

Stephanie: Like, you're not going to report me?

John: Are you serious?!

Stephanie: John, please. I'm begging you. Nobody else can know about this, ok? I need you to do this one thing for me.

John: You are insane.

Stephanie: You're probably right. But I'd keep it to myself if I were you. I mean… we wouldn't want another accident to happen, would we?

(There's a grim silence between the two)

John: You don't mean that.

Stephanie: Try me.

John: (sighs) We haven't shared it with anyone yet.

Stephanie: Good.

John: I certainly have no intention of parading the news about any time soon. To be honest, I haven't really wanted to talk about it to anybody. Not even Miranda.

Stephanie: Ok.

John: But speaking of Miranda… I can't promise she won't want to share the news.

Stephanie: Oh, really?

John: She took it really hard.

Stephanie: She's always had it in for me…

John: She loved our Melanie a great deal. And when you left that night, she was going on and on about-

Stephanie: Bye, John. (hangs up)

Dylan leaves the Johnsons

(Dylan is getting his stuff together so that he can move back home. He and his family have made up, and he finally feels ready to go back there. Mary is helping him pack)

Dylan: I'm going to miss you, Mary.

Mary: Don't.

Dylan: What?

Mary: Stop saying sweet stuff. You'll make me cry.

Dylan: (chuckles) Ok. (pauses) It's true, though.

(Mary laughs. Dylan gives her a hug, which she returns)

Mary: (tearing up) I love you, Dylan.

Dylan: Love you, too.

Mary: It's been great having you stay with us.

Dylan: Yeah. Stay cool, Mary.

Mary: Only if you do, too!

(Dylan kisses Mary on the cheek. Mary smiles and wipes her tears away. Then, the two take the rest of his stuff downstairs, and are joined by Victor and Jenna in the living room)

Jenna: Dylan!

Dylan: (smiles) Hey, Jen.

Jenna: Come here, sweetie. (gives Dylan a big hug) It sucks to see you go.

Dylan: I've loved being here.

Victor: And we've loved having you.

Dylan: Thank you for having me. (hugs Victor)

Victor: I'm glad things worked out with your folks.

Dylan: Me too. Seriously, I'm never going to let a fight get this bad again. Ever.

Victor: Good idea.

Mary: (comes in from the kitchen holding a Tupperware container) Some snacks for the road!

Dylan: Aw, thanks! What is it?

Mary: Mom and I made brownies.

Jenna: Yeah, they're great. Take them home, share them with your family.

Dylan: Thanks, guys. Uh… where's Alice?

Mary: Ooh, I don't know.

Victor: Look around, she can't have gone far.

Dylan: 'Kay. Bye, guys.

(The Johnsons bid Dylan farewell and he leaves the living room. He goes back upstairs and sees Alice sitting on the top steps)

Dylan: Hi.

Alice: Hello.

(Dylan sits beside her)

Alice: So you're off, then?

Dylan: Yep.

Alice: Cool.

Dylan: Why didn't you come down to say bye?

Alice: Oh, I was going to. I was just… I got really sad just thinking about it. So I sat here to get myself together. It was only meant to be for a minute.

Dylan: Well, it was a minute too long. You kind of missed it.

Alice: That wasn't intentional. Sorry.

Dylan: It's ok.

Alice: (sighs) Life is so weird. Like, you spend ages wanting something, and as soon as you get it, you don't want it anymore.

(Dylan chuckles at this comment)

Alice: Like, I'm glad you and you're family are getting along. And it's a good thing that you're going back to them. But at the same time, I'm going to really, really miss you here.

Dylan: I'm going to miss this place, too. (pauses) Thank you.

Alice: What for?

Dylan: Inviting me here in the first place.

Alice: Oh, I was just helping a friend in need.

Dylan: I know. But I just feel like it's important that you know how much I appreciate it. And you.

Alice: Really?

Dylan: Yeah. You mean a lot to me, Alice.

Alice: (blushes) Thanks. (shrugs) You mean a lot to me.

Dylan: (smiles) Thanks.

(The two gaze into each other's eyes, and then they both start kissing passionately. This goes on for a while, before they get interrupted suddenly)

Mary: Ahem.

Alice: OH.

Mary: Hey. Can you two move? I-uh… need to go to the bathroom.

Dylan: Sure, sure. (stands up) There you go. (moves out of Mary's way)

Mary: Thanks, Dylan. (pats Alice's shoulder as she passes her) Have fun.

(Dylan sits back down next to Alice, and after an awkward silence, the two laugh at that encounter)

That's all for now!

I thought we could end on a nice Dalice moment lol. Again, some shippy cuteness to help balance out all the angst. (They finally kissed! Yay!! Don't get used to it, though - mild spoiler alert, but they don't actually get together for a reeeeeaaally long time.)

Stephanie and Ben's relationship is showing a bit of wear and tear at this point of the story after a few long months of long-distance (and it is around this point where it starts becoming clear that her little thing with Bret is actually somewhat of a big deal, and not simply "basic primal animal attraction" or however she put it previously. She's scared that she might actually start falling for him, and how that might affect the rest of the group). It is clear that there is still so much love between them, though - Ben is so sweet here, showing his concern for her studies and all.

Fun fact: Ben tells Steph that he feels like the colour purple matches her vibe and personality a lot. This was intentional, due to the symbolism that purple has. It is a very regal colour, associated with royalty and wealth. It's meant to show how Ben sees Stephanie. It's really cute, but also kind of sad... he loves her so much. He has this idealised view of her in his mind, though. He doesn't truly know her at all, when you think about it. Poor guy has no freaking clue how messed up his girlfriend truly is (exhibit A: threatening her foster father on the phone so he doesn't report her for her crimes).

Only two parts left. Don't worry, though. This series ends with a bang!

rating all the guys ive liked before ˚ ༘♡ ⋆｡˚ ❀

~ *mr*n (darjah 1) = 8/10

tbh since its my first childhood crush so it was so cutesy and innocent type of love so im rating this high. never really talked to him pun actually, once had an encounter when i was pulling my stone heavy beg tarik onto this giant ass stairs when i was going home and he offered to help me!!! cute kan.... but he was holding another girl's hand also during that time so 😅😅 kinda soul crushing for a 7 y/o but hidup ni keras dik...... also his dad was a friend of my dad so... yeah....

visual purposes: normal boy, chinese looking, botak in a way there's some spikey hairs growing if that makes sense

~ first (darjah 3) = 9/10

rating him the HIGHEST bcs he was the best and the most painful one. i feel like i talked a lot abt him earlier when i made this account. we literally are so close and in sync with each other it's insane. i can definitely say he's my soulmate, not kidding. never met somebody so close to him until now. but hes an ick now thats for sure after stalking his account. his physicals is obviously different than when i knew him as this scrawny tall kid. his attitude might've changed too. never heard from him again since our mothers had an argument and decided to stop being friends with each other. that's the most devastating part of it, the fact that we never had the chance to say good bye or even articulate anything. i always wonder what we could've been if we never got separated. i have his socials, but i don't think i have the guts to actually text him and tell him who i am. he might not even remember who i was, and maybe i was just a girl who happen to be apart of his life, for a little while. but he was one of the biggest things that has ever happened to me. it's always has been like this. i was never apart of something much.

~ n*s**m (darjah 3) = 5/10

honestly i liked him for quite a short time and mostly bcs he was my ketua kelas and nothing more. he grew up to be annoying tho i remember him asking me details about my facial treatments but in a weird way. so it ICKED me. (this was back in 2019)

~ *n*q* (darjah 4) = 7/10

I GOT TASTE OK BABES FOR THIS ONE!!!!! HES TALL AS HELL!!!! archery kid, pengawas kantin, handsome among our batchmates, in the first tier of classes (one of the smartest classes) like ????????? a total snatch ok.... but hes annoying tho from what i could remember but in a normal way like how boys are at that age....

~ *mr*n (darjah 4) = 6/10

ok this is so funny bcs the guy above is his fucking bestfriend and i decided to like him after that LMAOO but to be fair i liked him bcs he liked me first so macam.... KJSFNJKFSJK visually that time hes normal-cute but now hes scarily hot like KJSBDJKBK but not hot HOT, its like 'oh hot' type of guy when ur friend asked u if he's hot or not.... and he's weirdly famous for some reason now... but anyways...

~ *q*l (darjah 5) = 4/10

i feel like this is more of a fling rather than a crush tbh bcs ??? i can't remember shit about him... boring.... other than he's tall as hell..... yikes..... he's 180++ now so imagine being tall at 11 y/o..... have the looks back in primary but now he's just meh. boring. next. unkept looking in a way??? like bro shaving exists!!!

~ *zz (darjah 6) = 1/10

wtf babi bcs wtf is this HAHAHHA THIS IS LIKE ONLY FOR A FEW DAYS KOT OR A WEEK AT MOST bcs i remember making jokes ABOUT him and sitting next him but thats all 😭 maybe that's what got me to the 'feelings' LMAO ITS SO FUNNY............

~ h**k*l (darjah 6 - form 2) = 5/10

prolly my first crush that has ever exceeded more than 3 months bcs ??? and the cringiest moments of us were when we were at our langkawi trip???? i was delusional as hell thinking im THAT bitch to kinda woo him abit but when i looked back at those pictures i looked like shit bro..... WHAT WAS I THINKING WEARING RED LEGGINGS WITH A LOW PONYTAIL AND A MATCHING WHITE BLOUSES WITH MY OTHER GANG MEMBERS.... WTF????? AND A BLUE KNAPSACK TOO?? THE HELL????? they said the devil wears prada but i would say that devil wears knapsacks ok!!!!!! #kingkylie era btw so i was smiling in a weird way, like in a way trying to do the 'duck lips' so..... funny..........

also it icks me A LOT when he started getting overly attentive at my number of followers.... like every time i tried to make a conversation he'll go 'oh dia kan budka hot ada 1k followers' like ??????????? the hell??????????? also that receding hairline and that big ass forehead deserves criminal time babes bcs wtf!

~ *p*n (form 2-4) = 2/10

caused me the most embarrassment and quite some pain (weirdly) bcs i took our situationship like a cinta monyet kind of era, so it shouldn't hurt as much but weirdly it caused me quite some pain and trauma...... maybe bcs i was cheated too!!!!!!!! his ugly ass GLOWED EVEN DOWN-ER!!!! thats what u get as kifarah babes for cheating on me!!!! also heard that he got cheated by his ex that he cheated on me with!! karma is my boyfriend!!!!!

most well known 'relationship' too among our batchmates and thinking about this back made me wanna stab myself 100 times and twist the knife around the wound bcs why was i SO STUPID.......... also he was VERY PUSHY in making us official like ??? chill ???? (obviously we didn't bcs i have commitment issues)

honestly idk wtf did i saw in him like ???? the visuals are obviously out, his personality is compensating for it i guess.... not so much after our 'break up' that's for sure 💀 he's an ick to the society now like i literally stalked his socials a few days ago bcs it happened to pass by my account and he started rt-ing things about sex and drugs and cigarettes in public like ????? make a fake account or something pls like i don't wanna know that you like to eat your girlfriend's ass....

personally, i would never handle that type of embarrassment and cringeyness and disrespect... so... that explains a lot.....

~ curly fries (form 4) = 2/10

tbh just a stupid camp crush and that's all... we exchanged shirts and ties and stuff but nothing more... also he's a fuckboy and kept getting uglier the more i see him.... also curly hair is not a good look on u babes personally so nope.............. i feel like i only 'liked' him for a month? BYE ok i just remembered we had called each other from public phones sial wtfffffff ok but thats all (other than the cringey moments from mfls that i still remember rn) 😭😭

~ ch*ng (form 4) = 2/10

more like a fling tbh maybe bcs i was bored, and tbh hes just a rebound... felt so bad for this but it is what it is KSJBDKJ but we kinda are each other's rebounds... so... that makes it equal... i guess.... also we met through auni, which makes this funnier bcs she literally tried to matchmake us like cupid or sumn 💀💀 i think it went for 3-4 months, and he BARELY tried to keep up so NOPEEEEE + hes not even my type other than tall so... YIKEs.... also... hes a kelantanese.... walking red flag who....

~ plushie (degree) = 5/10

ongoing pain tbh but we roll!!!!!11 hes so nice and etc but the thing is..... HES GAY SIAL.................. so obviously stopped liking him bcs why would i wait for somebody who won't even see me 😭😭 plus we're close so that makes it weirder.... and he didn't know abt me liking him, so basically he did all these things and shit and sending me mixed signals, and i have been delusional this whole time!!!!! good to know!!! time to move on!!!!!!!

Slow & Steady [P2] [Sabo x f!reader] (+18)

Genre : Romance - Smut - Bestfriends to lovers General warnings : Alcohol consumption - Dark themes - Swearing - S m u t - possessiveness - Mention of ex-relationships - jealousy

A/N : This is really different from my usual writing style but I am experimenting. Please tell me your thoughts and don’t hesitate to ask to be added to the tag list :) AO3 : https://archiveofourown.org/works/31877203?view_full_work=true

In the last chapter -- «-Enough playing now, you're going to sleep. -B-but ! This wasn't what I asked for....You're really a coward after all...You virgin... » He carried you to his room, putting you on the bed and sitting next to you. «-I'd love to prove you wrong. However, it would be better if you were in a state where you'd be able to recall how good I am. If you want me to fuck you this badly then maybe ask me when you're sober.

Part I - Part II

Part II -Yeah yeah...Pff..You're no fun Sabo. Things were finally getting interesting ! »

He smiled seeing that you were now calmer. You started to yawn and bury your face in his pillow. He loved to see you getting so comfortable in his room. He really needed a cold shower after your little show. -Goodnight (Y/N). I'll sleep on the couch. You can get comfortable. -Are you crazyy ? You gonna leave me alone like this ? Let's sleep together~ -Come on (Y/N), you're a big girl. You could sleep alone for one night, would you ? Translation : I don't want to spend the whole night with a semi. And you're dangerously flirty, and I have wanted you for years and now I have to abstain.

-Pleaaaase. You said looking at him with puppy eyes. He rolled his eyes placing a hand in his hair. God.damn.it.

You won again. Like every time. * * * You opened your eyes hardly next day, feeling something hard against your thigh. You looked at the ceiling

Oh...I am not in my room...Where the fuck am I ?

you turn around only to discover the embodiment of Adonis to your side. A light beam was lighting up Sabo's face. He looked like an angel as his beauty couldn't be that of a human.

Was he always this handsome ?

You didn't know, in fact, you have never had the occasion to wake up in his bed. Wait, in his bed ? This realization came slowly as your head was still foggy from yesterday's consumption.

You looked down, the thing that was pressing against your leg was indeed :

his thing.

You frowned, blushed, pulled away, put a hand on your lips repressing an internal scream, all of this in around three seconds. You then tried to calm down, telling yourself that it was very normal for a man to experience this kind of morning unconviniences, and that Sabo was a man, after all. Even if you have always seen him as a bestfriend, he was still a man that is capable of physical attraction.

Now that this internal monologue was done with, you felt a bit calmer, but that didn't answer your question. You got out of bed, trying to recall what happened after going in the bar. And it came back. All of it. Without any mercy for your feelings.

You wanted the ground to swallow you whole. Your only wish was to disappear which meant : calling Nami. You headed out of the house, not even having the courage to face your bestfriend.

« Namiiiii -Uh ? What's the matter ? -I fucked up. I fucked up really bad. -Oh yeah ? Tell me about it. -Wait, why do you seem excited ? -O-oh I'm not excited. Come on tell me. What else could you have possibly done ? -I asked Sabo to fuck me. -Wait what ? You could hear Vivi ask Nami about what happened and her answering « She asked Sabo to fuck her ». -Nami ! Don't go on telling everyone about this. I'm on my way. -For starters, Vivi isn't « everyone », she's my girlfriend. And I'm here waiting for you to tell me what happened. -Wait, I'll come at your place. This can't be discussed over the phone. »

You hung up on her. Ten minutes later, you were at her place. Extremely confused. Nami was painting her nails bright red on the bed while Vivi was sitting comfortably on a chair. You let your whole body weight fall on a lounge pug, tourmented. «-So tell me how you and Sabo ended up fucking. She emphasized the last word in a way that made you almost choke on air. -We didn't actually. Nami and Vivi both sighed in a synchronized « Ah » of disappointment. -So hmm...I don't remember clearly. I was really drunk-- well that you're aware of and...And Sabo didn't want to leave me alone so we went to his place. Ace was at Thatch's so we were alone. We hugged and he comforted me. Then I started teasing him, and I don't know what I was thinking, but I kissed him, and then I asked him to fuck me. -Wow that escalated quickly. Said Nami as she continued painting her nails.

-Well, I was heartbroken, I needed something, someone, and he was there, and you know Sabo, he's a good guy ! I don't know what's worse, the fact that I asked him to fuck me or the fact that he said no.

-Oh god I'm so so sorry

- Nami please don't make things worse for me.

-No offense, but you're so dense. Sabo has always been into you. Do you want him, or do you not ? I know that going right into a relationship after a breakup is a bad idea. But honestly it's worth giving it a shot. He's a really good guy. Try dating someone nice for once.

-I don't know, he has something unsettling about him. Like « almost too good to be true » you know ? Added Vivi.

-Ohhh~ I see. Honestly, I always thought that he was a bit prude and hella vanilla. I mean, yes, he's my best friend. But he has never talked about girls to me or about sexual stuff. So I just assumed that. I never thought that he'd be packin' like that. You said as you popped a lollipop in your mouth.

-Ah ? Was it really that impressive ? asked Nami, genuinely curious.

-Yeah. On a scale from 0 to doflamingo he's a solid eight point seventy five. (*)

-Oh gosh. I understand why you're so worked up now.

-That's really...precise. Added Vivi, a bit horrified.

(*) [ The dear reader might need this clarification ; Doflamingo was Law's uncle, he sometimes came to pick him up after uni with his luxurious lamborghini. He wore extremely tight pants that left little to the imagination. And he was most known among your clique for having a nine incher. It was a running joke wether to know if Law got his uncle's genes. Needless to say that this joke wasn't to Law's taste. Now back to our adorable Y/N. ]

-So. I really don't know what to do. I am still heartbroken. -And horny. Added the ginger. -Yeah, that too. I'm afraid of ruining our friendship. -Listen dear, said Nami as she was closing the nail polish bottle, if you're not going for it, someone else would. And trust me, that girl Koala is upping her game. She's going to steal him right in front of your eyes, just like this - and she snapped her fingers. -Oh, and then, you can forget about being « best friends ». Said Vivi adding fuel to the fire. -Yeah, once he's gonna start dating, he won't have too much time for you-- and then, that Koala girl, my god, she seems extremely possessive ! -No way, your voice was detached, trying to act is if you weren't worried, Sabo has never dated any girl before.- -Yes but he seems to get along with that girl. And to be honest, she's kinda cute.

-Nami ! Vivi pinched her forearm playfully, pretending to be jealous.

-That hurt ! And don't be jealous, you know that you're my only one~

-Hmm...I prefer that. Vivi laughed. You started caughing reclaiming for their attention.

-Attention please ! We're discussing my dick-appointment here.

-Jesus you're really annoying, (Y/N), just go for it already.

-How much did he pay you to tell me this huh ?

-What ? He didn't pay me ! You're just always getting your heart broken. I'm just trying to be a good friend.

-Say that you are trying to get rid of her~ Jokes Vivi.

-Vivi, don't expose me like this- Nami plays along while laughing.

-I hate you girls ! You say as you throw a pillow on Nami. The ginger starts complaining that you messed her Nail polish, and the whole scene metamorphosed into a pillow fight.

* * *

You spent the whole day with the girls, chit-chatting about boys and girls and playing stupid games. You felt way more comfortable now, less ashamed. However, you were surprised because you didn't get a message from your bestfriend. You wondered wether he was mad at you, it wasn't in his habits.

You decided to message Ace [click for conversation] [ (Y/N) : Heyy amigo is Sabo ok ? Did he tell u smth abt yesterday ? Ace : Ouch, your hurting my feelings, </3 Only talking to me to ask about my brother~ Yea hes okay why tho ? (Y/N) : Ooo kay. He's home ? Ace : He is. Why don't u directly text him ? (Y/N) : Don't tell him I asked. Btw I didn't forget about those 10 bucks you « borrowed » from me. Give it back.] He didn't answer. You sighed and decided to go see Sabo to settle things down. It was the first time that you were embarrassed to see your best friend. You dressed up in a black skirt and t shirt. You didn't usually pay attention to your looks when you went to hang out at Sabo's, but you were really stressed out and what the girls have said about Koala made you scared of losing him. After all, you had some abandonment issues. You had to settle this down once and forever. You arrived at the guy's place, it was an apartment not so far from your own student flat. You knocked on the door and Ace opened : -Ohhh, (Y/N), he whistles, lookin' like a girl today huh ? -What are you implying you dumbass ? Where's Sabo ? -He's in his room with Koala.- -Wait what ? Koala ? What is she doing here ? Ace raised an eyebrow then said amused ; -I don't know, go ask him yourself. -You're useless as usual. -Always so sweet. You on your period or something ? -I didn't forget about my twenty bucks by the way. -I said I'm goin' to pay you back alright ? Now go talk to Sabo. You and Ace were always teasing each other in a brotherly way, but in reality, he really cared for you, it was just your usual way of communication. But it was true that knowing that Koala was in Sabo's room put you in a bad mood. You knocked on the door with a knot in your stomach. Did they start dating ? Was Sabo interested in her ? These ideas were torturing you. But why did you care anyways ? It was none of your business. He could date whoever he wants. You opened the door but there was only Sabo relaxing on his bed, still fully clothed. « - Sabo ?-Oh, (Y/N), what brings you here ? -Why ? Do I need a reason to see my best friend ? He sits on bed looking at you. He doesn't fail to notice your cute outfit, it was different from your usual sweatpants and hoodies, the way it complemented your figure was almost too much for him. Just that sight was driving him insane, but his face didn't betray his emotions, like always, he acted friendly, not an ounce of lust in his dark ebony eyes. You took place next to him. He smelled good, you thought. The same fresh minty smell as last time. Did he always smell this good ? -(Y/N) ?Huh ? Is everything okay ? His voice seemed concerned.He cared for you. And you had those stupid immature and posessive thoughts. Get a grip of yourself, (Y/N), you thought. -Oh yea-- wasn't Koala here ? Ace told me you were with her.

You tried so hard to act like you didn't care, but he knew you like the back of his hand. But still, he played along. -Hmm..Yes. She just left. I was going out as well. He says with a sweet smile, looking at his watch. You couldn't help but make a disappointed face. -But Sabo I wanted to - I'm really sorry (Y/N), let's talk later. He ruffles your hair and you close your eyes as he does so. You felt stressed out. What happened exactly ? You felt intimidated in his presence for the first time. You wanted him to stay and talk this out. It was a bit awkward for you now. You never thought too much. As he was going out of the room you held the fabric of his coat tight in your hand ; -Sabo- -Hum ? Need me to drop you somewhere ? -N-no. You let his sleeve go, realizing what you have just done, I'll stay a bit then go back home. Don't worry about me. -Alright then. See you later ? -Yeah. See ya. ]

You looked at Sabo go away and you followed him shortly after. Meanwhile Ace was sitting on the couch and watching some movies. You went back home and was quite tormented. It wasn't the right time to worry as you had your assignments and studies to deal with. On one hand, you didn't even have the time to think of your ex boyfriend and his cheating but on the other, you felt like you were let down by Sabo. But why ? He didn't do anything. He just found himself a new friend and a potential new girlfriend.

He didn't even talk about her, but why where you so upset by him meeting her ? After all, he had the right to date just like you always did.

A few days have passed and you didn't get the chance to talk to Sabo. Your exams were getting closer and closer and you didn't feel ready.

Usually, Sabo would help you with your assignments but you were too scared to ask. You realized how much you relied on him and how he has been always there for you.

Who were you exactly to him ?

Maybe you took him for granted.

As you were on your bed looking at the ceiling and trying to collect every drop of motivation in your system to study, you heard your phone ring. It was Sabo's ringtone ! ----- Tag list : @vemuabhi @chloe-abbacchio @mwls-garden @soanywaysistartedsimping If you wanna get tagged just ask for it :)

「 𝐏𝐀𝐑𝐓 𝟏 」

— 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝟐 | 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝟑 —

warnings: church boy!mark, unprotected sex, praising, dirty talk, public sex, slight corruption kink, fingering and degradation if you squint

every week you would patiently wait for sunday to roll around, the day when you would wear that cute white dress, slightly too short for the ocasion, which would make your mom throw a cardigan over your shoulders to compensate for the skin exposure, and you would do your hair and makeup all pretty even tho you knew that mark was going to fuck you so good that all of that would go to waste. but you still did it, because you knew how much his eyes sparkled and darkened when he saw you all pretty for him.

you saw mark at the end of the hall next to his dad when you and your parents entered church, everyone sitting down waiting for the mass to start. his eyes met yours and you could see a little smirk forming of his lips, making you rub your thighs together at the anticipation.

"i'm gonna go sit in the back with my friends, ok?" you asked your parents already walking towards the seats in the back. "ok, but i don't want you playing around while the mass is going, you hear me?" your mom almost shouted at you and you just replied with a simple "yes mom", watching them finally settling down in their seats.

you weren't going to meet any friends, it was just an excuse to wait for mark so you could escape in the middle of the ceremony to go somewhere quieter. and so it was, a few minutes after the mass had started you felt mark sitting down next to you. you didn't look at him, focusing on what his dad, the pastor, was saying but he grabbed your hand that was placed next to you on the seat, his thumb gently rubbing over your skin.

"you look beautiful." he whispered, his lips getting closer to your ear. "you really know what turns me on, don't you?" you almost jumped from your seat when you felt his hand slowly going up your thigh, lifting the hem of your dress in the process. oh you knew. you knew he loved this dress and this was exactly what you wanted.

"i missed you." you whispered softly, finally turning your head to look in his eyes, your lips almost touching due to the fact that he was still leaning over you. his eyes darkened at your words and he grabbed your hand again, both of you getting up and exiting the building carefully so no one would see you.

mark pushed your back so hard against the concrete wall that you had to close your eyes for a second and he took advantage, kissing you so desperately, groaning when he saw the string of spit that connected your lips to his when he pulled away. his hand went under the skirt of your dress, feeling the wetness on your cotton panties with the tip of his fingers.

"i see you've been thinking about me." he chuckled, rubbing your clit over the fabric, a whine coming out of your mouth. "everybody thinks you're such a good girl. i wish they could see what a slut you really are, soaking your panties just from thinking about fucking the pastor's son." you let out a louder moan when you felt two of his fingers pushing your underwear aside, easing their way through your folds, pumping them at a painfully slow pace.

you threw your arms over his shoulders, trying to pull him closer to you, the back of your head resting on the wall behind you, moaning and whimpering at the feeling of his long fingers inside of you, but you wanted more. "m-mark..." you whined and he smirked, looking at your fucked out expression. he slowly took his fingers out of you and grabbed your chin so you would part your lips, allowing him to push his fingers, covered in your juices, inside your mouth. you sucked on them immediately, hearing a soft grunt coming from mark. "god, i can't wait to have you cumming on my cock." you clenched your thighs at the thought.

he grabbed your waist and turned you around, your hands flat on the wall for balance. he bunched your dress around your waist and slid your panties down your legs, putting them inside the pocket of his pants. they would keep him company during the week when he couldn't be with you, just until next sunday, when he would be able to touch you again. you heard him unbuckling his belt and you looked around, nervous but excited at the thought of having someone walking in on you. fucking outside in the back of the church wasn't the smartest idea but it turned you on, made you feel naughty which you never were. mark interrupted your thoughts by slamming his cock inside of you, stretching you out around him. you bit your bottom lip hard, trying not to scream at the feeling of him fitting inside you perfectly.

"f-fuck baby, you're always so tight." he moaned, sliding your hair out of the way, exposing your neck to his lips, leaving wet kisses all over the skin while he slowly started moving inside you, the feeling so good that you rolled your eyes back, resting your head on his shoulder. mark's hands grabbed your hips tightly and he moved slightly to get more confortable which made his cock touch your sweet spot, catching you of guard, a loud whine leaving your lips. you quickly covered your mouth with your hand and mark chuckled. "does that feel good, baby? s-shit... if you keep clenching around me like that i'm gonna cum." he groaned with his lips still pressed against your shoulder. his arm came around you and his fingers started circling your clit, so fast that the feeling made you light headed for a second.

"m-mark... i... mark i think i'm g-gonna." and you were coming undone around his cock, body quivering from how strong it hit you, your hand coming down to hold his wrist, his fingers still working on your clit, guiding you through your orgasm.

"b-baby, i think i'm coming too." mark moaned and you could feel how his thrusts were getting sloppy, your eyes widening when you remembered he wasn't wearing a condom.

"you can't come inside me!" you turned your head to try and look at him but his eyes were closed in pure bliss and you realized how cute he looked when he was about to cum, the bad boy persona fading away.

"i'll just come on your b-back." he responded but you couldn't get your dress dirty, what would your parents say if they saw your back stained. his cock twitched inside you and you were quick to pull him away, hearing him gasp when he suddenly felt empty, looking at you confused.

you turned around and quickly dropped to your knees, opening your mouth. "come in my mouth." was all you said before seeing mark furrowing his eyebrows and biting on his bottom lip, his hand coming down to stroke at this cock.

"you'll be the death of me, baby." he moaned, the sound so sweet in your ears that you let a small smile appear of your lips. he let his cock enter your mouth just slightly and you sucked on the tip and soon enough you were feeling the thick warm liquid filling your throat and mouth, being careful not to let anything slip out. he pulled away when he was done and you swallowed everything, gaining a grunt from his part.

you quickly got up as soon as you heard the church bells ringing, indicating that the mass was over. your eyes widened and you pulled your dress down, trying to fix your your hair and makeup to the best of your habilities while mark was busy tucking his cock and shirt inside of his pants again. "fuck, my mom is going to kill me if she sees that i'm gone!" you said now walking towards the front of the church in a hurry, mark following right behind you.

"wait!" he shouted, grabbing your wrist and turning you around, his lips slamming against yours for a passionate but slow kiss and you melted in his embrace. he pulled away when he heard the sound of the main door opening and everyone started to get out, distracted talking to each other. unfortunately your mom and dad were already rushing your way, anger visible in their faces and you cursed mentally.

"where were you, y/n?!" your mom shouted, stopping right in front of you and mark.

you were about to make an excuse but mark beat you at it. "mrs. y/l/n, y/n wasn't feeling well so i took her outside to get some fresh air. i'm so sorry if i made her miss the mass but i didn't want her to throw up inside, you know?" you looked at mark and saw how his facial features had changed completely now that he was standing in front of your parents, almost like when he was about to cum, minus the moaning and orgasm face. his eyes were big, almost puppy-like and he just looked so innocent and cute, you couldn't help but smile and so did your mom.

"oh, don't worry mark. thank you for taking care of our daughter. sometimes i wish she was more like you." she leaned to him to whisper the last part and they giggled as if you were not just standing there next to them. "tell your dad that the mass was great, ok son?" your dad patted him in the back and mark flinched a little, almost as if he was terrified of your dad's touch which he probably was, considering what he had just done to his daughter.

everyone waved goodbye and as you were walking to the car you turned around, seeing mark staring at you with a smirk on his face. you looked down and you saw how he had pulled a part of your white cotton panties from his pocket, only now realizing that you weren't wearing underwear all this time. you made eye contact with mark, blushing, and he winked at you, turning around and walking towards his dad.

A sweet moment

Kagura checked the photo again. Yes, this one. It was the most beautiful photo of her twin Brother, Byakuya, who has been single, since she could remember. Kagura found that very weird. They were both 23 years old and she was already married, while he spend his days playing with his two nieces and taking this as an excuse, to not go on dates.

"Are you finished? Towa wants her mom to bring her to bed." Kagura heard the cool voice of her husband behind her. She smiled and looked over her shoulder. "Can't you ask Byakuya, Darling? Towa loves it, when her uncle brings her to bed." Then the young woman continued tipping on her laptop, with a grin on her face, that made her husband shiver. Sesshomaru sighed.

"I think you mean Setsuna. She adores him. You should know, that Towa is obsessed with you. What's so important, that you can't bring our daughter to bed yourself?"

Kagura smiled brighter and rubbed her hands against each other. She looked at Sesshomaru, who leaned over her to look at her laptop as well. Then he raised one eyebrow. "You plan to find a girlfriend for Byakuya? I don't think he will like it, when you're meddling into his life." Kagura sighed. Sesshomarus opinion was always so partisan. He often found excuses for Byakuyas behavior and defended him. Yeah, Byakuya was his brother in law, but Kagura would like it, if Sesshomaru was once at her side.

"C'mon, Sess. He's been single for way to long now. I'm married and he's always alone. I'm just worried about my Byakuya."

Sesshomarus saw, that it wouldn't make any sense, to argue with his wife, because he couldn't win. He never won a fight, when they were still raising his oldest adoptive daughter Rin. Rin really took after Kagura at some point. But she was still his little, innocent child, even tho, she was now dating that boy Kohaku, who was her age.

"And you didn't mind talking to Byakuya about this?" "I was asking him, why he's still single, but he only answered, that he likes to spend time with our daughters and his job really exhaustes him." Kagura finished the profil on the dating side and smiled. She would find the greatest girl for her twin brother. He deserved it. He deserved an own family. Kagura saw it, when he brought Towa and Setsuna to bed. The sad look in his eyes. He once told her, when he had looked to deep in the whiskey glass, that he would love to be a dad.

"Alright, I'm finished." The red eyed woman closed her laptop and stood up. Then she smiled at her husband Sesshomaru und ran her fingers through his hair. "Time to bring our daughters to bed." She kissed her husband sweetly. "We should ask Byakuya, if he wants to spend tomorrow with the twins, so that we can have some time alone." Suggested Sesshomaru.

Kagura softly opened the door to the twins bedroom. "Mommy's here-" As soon as she saw, what was going on in the room, she smiled brighter and suppressed an "awww" sound.

Her brother Byakuya lied in the bed of the Twins, with a soft smile on his face. He clearly was asleep. Towa lied on his chest and cuddled herself against her uncle. Kagura thought, that this was the cutest thing, that she ever saw. Then she chuckled quietly, when she saw Setsuna sitting on the other side of the bed, with a lot of ripped paper in front of her, making origami cranes, what she had clearly just learned from her uncle, who slept next to her.

When Sesshomaru appeared behind her, Kagura gestured him, to be quiet. She just wanted to watch this scene for a while. When her daughter Setsuna saw her, she smiled with big violet eyes. The same color of eyes, as her twin brother.

Setsuna ran towards her Mom and wrapped her arms around Kaguras waist. "Mommy, Uncle Byakuya teached me, how to do origami cranes!" Kagura smiled at her child and took her into her arms. "That's great, sweetie. But lower you're voice a little bit. You will wake you're sister and you're uncle." "Can uncle Byakuya stay with us tonight, Daddy?" Setsuna looked at her father with big violet eyes, while she was holding a sloppy done origami crane on her hand and presented it proud to him. Sesshomaru couldn't resist. "Of course, my dear." Setsuna smiled and ran back to her uncle and her twin sister. She cuddled herself on the other side of Byakuya and closed her eyes with a smile. Kagura watched this scene and she felt how warm her heart was at this moment. Sesshomaru wrapped his arms around his wife and watched the scene with the same warm feeling in his heart. "Do you think we should adopt Byakuya?" Kagura laughed. "I think he's a little bit to old for that, Darling. But you're right...He's like a brother for our girls."

"He's family now, Kagura."

-----

Just a cute one-shot about a modern AU family with Sesshomaru and Kagura as parents with theier girls and uncle Byakuya. It's not really fitting the Hogoshamaru week, but I mentioned Rin as Sesshomarus adoptive daughter.

Hope it was fun reading too.

when i fell you were there, with your hands in the air

cordelia goode x fem!reader

summary: your depression is hitting you harder than most days, cordelia comforts you 🤍

warnings: depression, slight mention of childhood trauma, it's angsty mental health fluff basically

word count: 1.7k

a/n: this is my first ever fanfic and i'm very very nervous about it, so pls don't be too harsh, constructive criticism is very much welcome though!! also i'm sorry about any grammar mistakes, english is not my first language. i also have to add that this was very much self indulgent and based on my own experience with depression, so if you don't relate, that's fine, everyone experiences it differently. I hope you enjoy it tho, have fun reading <3

today was one of those days again. one of those days where everything seemed grey and pointless. one of those days where taking a shower was too exhausting. one of those days where it didn't matter if you left your clothes on the floor or a pile of dirty dishes in the sink. one of those days where you isolated yourself. one of those days that seemed to return to you every morning for almost 3 weeks now.

you had been struggling with depression for years now and attending therapy regularly still didn't take away from the embarrassment you felt about your illness. cordelia didn't know, you didn't want to burden her with your subjectively "silly" problems. It wasn't easy hiding something so life consuming from your lover, but whenever you were with her you felt as though you could reach for the stars and there was no point in ruining happy moments with sad stories.

Whenever you felt really depressed and unable to function, you isolated yourself. Cordelia and you had been together for 7 months now and the first time she thought she had done something wrong which had resulted in you needing space from her, but when she confronted you, you reassured her that sometimes you needed some time to yourself because you were a more introverted person. While that might be true, you wanted nothing more than for her to take you into her arms and tell you everything was going to be okay again, but the fear of possibly burdening the already very busy supreme held you back from confessing what was weighing you down.

you were used to this already, you always kept your darkness to yourself, too afraid of being too much or being abandoned by your loved ones, while the rational side of you knew that the people in your life who truly meant something to you would never abandon you because of your chronic depression, anxiety left no room for rationality.

you were always feeling kind of down, but some days it was easier to cope and enjoy your day despite that... and then there were those phases where you felt unusually down, those phases that caused you to isolate yourself and wait for the storm to pass in solitude. They usually lasted only a few days or maximum a week, but this one had been going on for much longer. cordelia was worried, you had never needed so much "alone time to recharge your social battery", but she didn't want to overstep your boundaries and possibly push you away, because what you weren't aware of was that cordelia too struggled with abandonment issues and fearing she would be "too much" (which she could never be for you, you adored every single second you could spend in the blonde witch's presence).

After leaving multiple text messages and trying to call you, only to be greeted by your voicemail, cordelia took it upon herself to see what was going on with you. The knocking on your door would've usually startled you, but you had just ordered a pizza, too tired to prepare a meal yourself and assumed the delivery was faster than they had stated on their website. your jaw fell open and the door was quickly closed again, shit shit shit, what am i supposed to do now? the place looks like a mess, i can't let cordelia se-

"y/n can you open the door please?" she asked in her gentle voice. "Uh, yeah, give me a second" you replied, hastily throwing on a hoodie that had been lying around on your couch, coincidentally that hoodie being one you stole from cordelia a few weeks ago, something that made your girlfriend's heart warm up a little and relieve her of some of the worried thoughts she had that this might be your way of signaling to her that you no longer wished to be in a relationship with her.

"can we talk? i haven't seen you in three weeks and you haven't answered any of my texts... what's going on? you know you can talk to me about anything..."

"uhm, yes, of course. sit down, make yourself at home, would you like anything to drink?"

"no, thank you, i just want to talk to you"

you didn't have the energy to lie to the woman who held your heart in her hands anymore, you were terrified of her reaction, not only to you being mentally ill but also to you hiding it for so long.

"i'm so sorry delia, please don't be mad", you anxiously stuttered out. cordelia grabbed your hand and smiled reassuringly, signaling for you to continue talking.

"I didn't tell you before because i know you've already got so much going on with the academy and i didn't want to pile onto that with my irrelevant issues... I was diagnosed with depression amongst other things a few years ago, it's something i have to deal with every day and some days are easier than others, but sometimes it all comes crashing down on me and i feel like i'm lost in an ocean of a sadness so powerful, i can feel the pain on my body. I know it can be challenging to be close to someone with severe mental issues and I understand if you don't want to continue being with me, i would never want you to stay with me because you pity me or because you're afraid i'd do something to myself if you'd left, you're not responsible for my feelings or actions and i would never want to impose you with such a burden and-"

you stopped rambling when you noticed the tears flowing down cordelia's cheeks.

your eyes widened and your heart started pounding rapidly in your chest. "i'm sorry, was that too much?"

"no, no, no, no, no... it just pains me to know that you've been dealing with this on your own for such a long time because you don't value yourself enough to believe that other people might want to support you through your everyday battles. y/n, i know you, you're the girl who's always there when someone else needs a shoulder to cry on, anytime, anyplace, you always go out of your way to make others feel seen and accepted, why would you ever think that you don't deserve the kindness you so openly give to others?"

now it was you who was crying, cordelia was right, you didn't value yourself enough to believe that. you didn't actively think of yourself as less than others but that thought always unconsciously motivated the way you dealt with the things that were bothering you.

cordelia patted her lap, signaling for you to sit on her lap and come into her arms. you hesitated though, you weren't used to being so vulnerable and open with your emotions and it scared the shit out of you. you feared cordelia was possibly annoyed at you and was only doing this to get it over with and then get out. she watched you, while you were anxiously deciding what your next move would be, her heart broke for you, you looked like a scared baby dear when all she wanted to do was to comfort you.

"baby, look at me"

her chocolate colored eyes were so full of love, simply looking into them managed to get your heart rate down.

"it's okay, i'm not mad at you for talking about your feelings and all i want to do right now is to hug some of your pain away, so please, let me hold you"

you melted at her gentle words and understanding nature, cordelia was an incredibly smart woman, who went through traumatic things herself and even from that little information you shared, she understood you. she saw her younger self in you, so incredibly lonely but oh, so scared of being vulnerable with another person, due to the emotional abuse her mother subjected her to, and while she might not have gone through the same things you did, she felt like she understood your feelings in this exact moment and she wanted nothing more than to make you feel safe with her.

you slowly crawled into her lap, still afraid this was all a trick to hurt you, but when she started combing through your hair and reassuringly whispering "i've got you" and "you're here with me, i promise you, you're safe", you relaxed into her arms.

after about half an hour of laying there with each other, calming down and enjoying the other one's warmth, you spoke up.

"delia?"

"yes, my love?"

"so you're not leaving me?", you hesitantly asked.

cordelia sat up and looked straight in your eyes while asking "would you leave someone you love because they're depressed?"

"no, never"

"then tell me, sweetheart, why would i leave you?"

her response left you speechless, you almost missed her confessing her love. "you love me?"

she hugged you tight and pressed a kiss on your forehead. "more than anything, and please, never worry about telling me about what's going on in that pretty little head of yours, no matter what it is, i wanna know, okay?"

you let out the breath you didn't know you were holding and confidently replied "okay"

a few minutes passed before you spoke up again when you remembered you didn't say those 3 special words back.

"i love you too, by the way"

cordelia smiled lovingly and stood up to reach out for your hand and pull you up. "i know, now let's go to bed, we can clean up this place tomorrow"

you accepted her helping hand and engulfed her in a hug. the way she so naturally used the word "we" and didn't seem to mind helping you clean up your mess of an apartment made you more emotional than you'd like to admit.

And while you knew this would not be the last time you were overwhelmed by your depression, you now knew that you could count on the woman who loved you to stand by your side and help you get through even your hardest day.

Isiah Kassidy Imagine

Warnings: None

Plot: You are sick and Isiah takes care of you, doing everything he can to cheer you up. He has to leave but you want him to stay.(It's just supposed to be a funny comedy imagine, like a 90s sitcom episode. Hope you enjoy)

You and Isiah had been together for nearly three years now. Sometimes it appeared as if he knew you better than he knew himself. There was no being ashamed of each other or being afraid to hurt the other by saying something. You knew that you loved each other and pretty much went together like peanutbutter and jelly.

And since he knew you, he knew that he's in dangerous territory when you're sick.

"I look like dog poo.", you said standing infront of the bathroom mirror. For over a week now you had fever, cough,the drippiest nose that ever dripped and your legs hurt. You felt like shit. You looked like shit. It got worse from day to day.

You went outside the bathroom holding onto the door frame "Don't I look like dog poo ?".

Isiah looked at you and grinned.

Oh no he really thought you looked like shit you thought to yourself. You were feeling really unattractive anyways, so no need to get you even more down. That guy sure had some nerves calling ya on your looks while you've been suffering for days now. Well that's how you look when you feel like shit right?!?

He saw the shifting mood and his face freezed "I think you look pretty babe.", he said in the dullest voice.

You stormed past him and threw yourself in your pink bunny pyjamas on the Couch as if your life was a 00s romcom and pressed your face against a pillow.

Isiah just stood there and honestly just tried not to crack up. You were always so extra when you were ill.

He sat down next to you and pulled you into his arms "Honey listen, to me your always the prettiest girl in the world. Your the girl of my dreams don't you remember ?"

"Really ?", you asked.

"Sure babe.", he said and kissed you before doing a grimace, "Brushin' your teeth now and then wouldn't hurt ya tho am I right ?!"

He got up and gasped for air while searching the room with his eyes closed "I'll get ya a peppermint. Always there for you girl...even if it means...taking a risk to my own health."

You threw one of your pink bunny slippers at him "You Idiot." It hit him and he fell straight to the floor. Now he just had you cracking up with tears in your eyes.

He squeaked "I've fallen and I can't get up !" Trying to imitate Steve Urkel the best way he could.

Like at this point you were laughing so hard you were snorting "Ugh laughing hurts", you said pressing a hand against your chest.

"Did I tell you that you are the best ?", you said with all honesty. "Not since about 5 minutes. But you just tryin' to make me come over and grasp for air again aren't ya ?", he said sitting down next to you on the couch. "No need to get cocky.", you glared at him. "Babe you're so moody when you're sick your moods change faster than gimmicks in WWE." "C'mon..." "Alright I know what will cheer you up...", he waved with the remote control, "Binge watching Living Single til you fall asleep."

"Awwwh you know what I love.", you said while making yourself cozy with a big blanket.

"But you know that all I need is you right ?", you said at complete inner peace when Isiah's phone buzzed.

"What.Was.That ?"

The phone buzzed again and so long that even the slightest ounce of peace in your body vanished. You didn't sense any good.

"Nothin", he shrugged it off.

*phone buzzes again*

You felt your head getting warmer and warmer second by second...or was that maybe just your temper ?....nevermind....it's gotta be the fever.

*again*

*and again*

"Now CMON!!!", you said putting the tv on pause even tho Maxine was about to insult Kyle with one of the best clapbacks in Living Single history.

"It's Marq he wants to train.", Isiah said only his big brown eyes peeking over the phone.

"You serious ?"

"I mean I-"

"You forgot the last time I took care of you when you had that little cough? I'M DEALIN WITH A FULL BLOWN FLUE SWEETIE"

The door bell rang and interrupted you.

"You already told him to pick you up ?"

Isiah was putting his jacket on "He said he was right around the corner."

"You told him he could come while I was layin here sneezing and with temperature so high Imma case for the firefighters ?"

He opened the door and let Marq in "Babe you got your show and your blanket just don't mind me I would just be in your way."

"In MY WAY ?"

"Honey listen-"

"Don't you honey me when you're leavin' me to train with HIM !", you said pouting your lip and pointing dramatically to Marq.

"Can it be that you're maybe..."

"What ?"

"Just maybe.."

"WhAT ?"

"A little bit..."

"Eeehhh?!?!?"

"Just a tiiiiiny tiny bit..."

"Don't say it!"

"Needy."

You threw the biggest pillow you could get "Don't you dare come back here again or I-"

...and they were gone.

Outside the house Marq was still crackin' up "Dude you gotta buy her something or do something or she gonna-"

"Yeah yeah I know how to take care of it. But she won't be mad at me anymore when I come home later", he said confidently, "I mean I'm hopin'...."

Daminette Hogwarts au

Marinette's POV:

I went down to the common room to get out of the dormitories and go eat breakfast when Adrien started chasing after me and trying to get me to get back together with him. There's no way I'm even being friends with him after what he did. Ughhhhhh I feel like this is so cringyyyyyy!!!! What can I say I'm in middle school, there's no way I'm not making this cringy. I'm so sorry for making it this way but this is how Imma do it.

~Flashback~

"hmmmmm Adrien did tell me to meet him here." Marinette looks around only to see Adrien and Lila kissing. "w-why?" She asked Adrien. "WAIT MARINETTE IT'S NOT WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE!!!!!!!!" Adrien yells after her while she walks away. "Oh really? I think I know exactly what it looks like. You and your new girlfriend kissing while I sit here with barely any friends after she fucking turned everyone against me. That's what it looks like and that's exactly what's happening right now." She said in a power woman voice. "I swear that's not what happened princess, she just started kissing me that's it right when she saw you she kissed me, I swear." He said pleading. "You were fucking holding her that doesn't seem like her just kissing you." She said. "please I swear it wasn't at all what it looked like" He said still pleading. "You know what else this looks like?" She asked. "No what else does it look like???" He said now confused. "It looks like you're single, oh wait that doesn't make sense, let me rephrase that, it looks like you're now dating a liar and cheater and no longer dating the best witch of our age." She told him. She walked away and that was the end of their friendship and relationship

~End of flashback~

That cheating asshole will never get so much as a sliver of attention from me. After ignoring Adrien the whole time I went down to eat breakfast and went through all my classes for today. After classes I walked with Chloe, Alya and Juleka to the dormitories and we all started packing for Hogwarts. A few days later it was finally time to go to Hogwarts and we all got in Madame Maxime's carriage to get to Hogwarts. It was a few hours long but it felt like it would last forever. Eventually we got to Hogwarts and I was so excited, I knew my friend Fleur would be the champion for Beauxbatons even if all of the mindless sheep think that Lie-la will be the champion, I know it'll be Fleur. We landed on the ground and entered the building, still waiting for the people from Ilvermony.

Not even ten minutes later we saw a hot air balloon drifting down to the grounds and soon landing. After the balloon landed the kids from Ilvermony and their headmaster walked out of the giant air balloon and quickly walked into the castle for warmth. While they were walking in I locked eyes with a handsome boy who looked around my age, he had short black hair, tan skin, and forest green eyes, he was also very tall and did I mention he was handsome??? Did I say that he was very handsome??? I can't remember if I told you that this boy was hot af!!!!!

After everyone from Ilvermony was in Hogwarts we went into the Great Hall and sat with the houses we wanted to sit with. Ilvermony sat with the Slytherins and my school sat with the Ravenclaws. I noticed the handsome boy talking to another boy who looked to be our age who had light blonde hair, grey eyes, and seemed to be pretty short but also quite attractive. As I was walking out of the great hall to get to the Lady's Room I heard them say talking, the tan one's name, I think, is Damian, and the blonde one's name, if I heard correctly, was Draco. When I came back from the Lady's Room Adrien started begging for me to take him back again, so of course like any other normal human would do, I just walked away and sat at the Gryffindor table. I sat down to a girl named Hermione who I had met while she was visiting Paris during the summer and came to eat at the bakery my parents own. She said she was a Gryffindor at Hogwarts so there was no doubt that, if the people in my year started getting on my nerves, I would go sit at the Gryffindor table with her. When I sat down two boys who were sitting on the other side of her just sat and stared at me until I said

"Hermione are your friends alright??? They seem a bit like they're um well daydreaming about some random shit that probably doesn't matter." of course I said this while looking at them just to point out the fact that I am not the type to let people get away with shit like this, I'm too evil for that.

"oh, Harry and Ron? Yeah they're fine probably dreaming about the veela girl at the Ravenclaw table who came over and took the bouillabaisse." Hermione said.

"oh, you mean Fleur??? Fleur's the best, I bet she'll be Champion for Beauxbatons, I already know it won't be Lie-la tho, that girl could never be the Champion." I said to Hermione.

"I don't doubt that Fleur could be champion, I bet there'll be two Hogwarts champions though, one that put their name in purposely and then Harry, I mean Harry is Harry Potter after all so it's bound to happen." Hermione said this with such a sure look on her face that nobody could argue with her, not even me.

"I can't argue with that can I?"

After dinner and getting to know Ron and Harry, we went to the Gryffindor common room. I walked up the stairs to the girls dormitory with Hermione and we both went to bed. The next morning I woke up and got changed into a cute outfit, because Hogwarts decided to let the visitors wear whatever we wanted instead of our uniforms. So of course I put on my ADORABLE outfit and went out to the common room.

My outfit:

Except you know, she got her normal blue hair. But everything else is the same as the picture.

Me and Hermione went down to the common room, and got Ron and Harry and went to the Great hall for breakfast. As we were going to the Great Hall, we passed Damian and Draco, Draco then started an argument.

"Hey mudblood, blood traitor, what are you doing with the new girl hm?" Draco said.

"Hey, who you calling mudblood??? Hermione could beat you in a duel any day she wanted." I told him.

"Ohhhh the new girl's feisty isn't she?" He said in a teasing voice.

"Shut up Draco, nobody cares what you think, I mean after all who could when you walk around like you're a king when you probably don't have a family that cares about you even a little bit." I said.

"Sh-SHUT UP YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING!!!!!!!" He shouted at me.

Then they just walked away. Of course, they walked away while Damian was giving us apologetic looks. The next few days were really similar, until Damian was no longer seen around Draco. A few weeks after Damian stopped hanging out with Draco we saw Damian in the Gryffindor common room, waiting for us.

"What are you doing here Wayne?" Harry asked in a kind of snotty tone that I had never heard before.

"You know I didn't like Malfoy treating you all like that, and I've gotten tired of him, all he talks about is how he's a pure blood and how much money he has, I'm exhausted really." He told Harry while looking apologetic.

"Oh alright then, you can hang out with us." Harry said with a COMPLETE change of mood.

"Thanks guys." Damian said with a smile on his face, he walked over to us to shake hands and we locked eyes again.

I'm not gonna lie my legs felt like jelly when we locked eyes, we just stared at each other for what felt like eternity until Hermione snapped us out of it by saying "Hey lovebirds, as adorable as this is, we all really should be going to bed soon. It's already 10:00 and we have to be up early tomorrow for the announcement of who the champions are for the Triwizard Tournament." she was also snapping her fingers a lot, I don't really know why but she did what she thought she had to do.

a/n: yeah who doesn't like awkward encounters in cafés and bookstores? Plus an awkward party with a big surprise? Sign me up. Anyway, that's the second chapter for this baby. I got carried away a lot, so it turned out a lot longer than expected but I honestly didn't want to split it up. A lot is happening! I'm honestly so excited for the third one as the main plot will start there and let me tell you – it will go WILD, haha. Enjoy ♥

ch. 1 || ch. 3

･.｡*†*｡.･◆･.｡*†*｡.･◆･.｡*†*｡.･◆･.｡*†*｡.･

“Oh, hey Ava. Haven't seen you in forever. How are you? That's exactly what he said.”, Ava told her best friend while savouring her freshly baked croissant.

Yunmi sighed and took another sip form her third coffee. “I mean you actually didn't see him in nearly three years.”

Ava shot her friend a glance and snorted. “Yeah, well, that's not my bad. He decided to completely ignore me for no reason at all.”

“Yeah, because he's a jerk. That's a fact.”, Yunmi said with a smile, trying to comfort her friend.

“Totally.”

“A handsome jerk, tho.”, Ava added and drank a sip of her water, trying to avoid her friend's gaze.

“Yup, we all got eyes. But I still don't get it. I mean you two didn't even hook up, did you?”, she felt Yunmi's eyes staring holes in her body.

“No, I've told you a hundred times. We just kissed. I think I'd remember if I hooked up with fucking Johnny Suh.”, Ava sighed with frustration in her voice. Of course she thought Johnny was attractive. Well, not only attractive. It was like she was just drawn to his simple presence. Not to mention, that he was funny, smart, caring and overall just a good person. Or that's what she thought before he decided to just erase her out of his life.

She just couldn't get a hang of it. The memories she had of that night were just magnificient. The farewell party was fun and chill. Everyone enjoyed themselves while dancing or just having drinks. She wasn't even that buzzed, especially not in the moment she remembered so clearly it even felt a little surreal sometimes. But she could remember so clearly how she talked to Johnny for hours about everything. It wasn't the typical smalltalk they usually had – she told him about her worries for university, her feelings about this god forsaken town and even managed to tell him that he crushed on him for years, not having the balls to ask him out. Him being the best friend of her brother didn't make the whole situation easier, though.

And then, just like in all these movies she binge-watched with Yunmi he actually kissed her. And not like a friend, no, she remembered his lips on hers so clearly. The softness of them and how perfectly fit on hers like they were just meant to be. Yet, it felt like a dream sometimes. She felt how much passion the kiss had, it was breathtaking, like a sweet drug she couldn't get enough from and yes, she absolutely would've slept with him but she knew that he was a gentleman. They just chuckled at each other before he brought her home, promising to call the next day before her flight would take off.

But that never happened.

“Maybe you should try talking to him? Like face-to-face. You won't be able to avoid him forever, especially because of Mark.”, Yunmi said and tried to read her friends emotions but Ava just chuckled.

“Watch me.”

The café Yunmi picked out was next to the bookstore Mark worked at. Ava remembered how the spot was always closed and under construction but apparently it opened a few months ago. The style was simple and comfy. It was a light store with paintings on the walls and different types of plants everywhere. Huge windows allowed a view over the main street and the small park right in the middle. It seemed oddly familiar to Ava, even though she never set a foot in this building. But something just felt like she's been there before but she couldn't figure it out.

“I need more coffee.”, Yunmi said and pouted looking at her empty cup.

“Dude, that was your third coffee.” Ava laughed and looked at her friend, with just a tint of worry in her eyes.

“Happens when you work as a nurse. Night shifts are just so tiring here. Nothing happens anyway but I wasn't able to take a nap because I had to do all these papers.”, she said annoyed and pouted at Ava, holding up her empty cup.

The girl sighed and smiled, standing up to get her friend her needed refill.

Ava went up to the empty counter and looked for the young waiter she saw earlier but to her surprise another young man came out, looking at her with warm eyes.

“Can I get a refill please?”, she asked politely and handed the guy the cup after he nodded. His eyes focused on her for just a second, but for her it felt longer. Did she know him? His hair was dyed in a ashy-blonde color, hair framing his delicate facial features. His eyes looked warm yet they had something deep and maybe even dark about them. The way he moved looked elegant. She eyed him just for a second longer, trying hardly to think why he looked so familiar. She even felt like she somewhat heard his voice before. She squinted her eyes trying to take a look at his name tag but apparently he didn't even wear one.

“Here. Do you need something else?”, he asked.

Ava froze for a split second, realized how impolite it was to stare at a person as bluntly as she did.

“No, thank you. I really like the place, though. It's pretty.”, she smiled lightly and took the cup.

The guy thanked her, his face lightened up, a smile appearing on his face, which made her feel warm all of a sudden. Why did his smile see so familiar?

She hurried back to the table her friend was sitting, giving her her desperately needed caffeine.

“Who's the guy at the counter?”, Ava asked.

Yunmi immediately turned around to take a look at who her friend meant.

“Taeyong. He owns this place.”

After Ava stayed silent, not quite sure if she knew him or not, Yunmi added,

“He lives together with Johnny and Jaehyun in that house. We met him there once, don't you remember?”, Yunmi asked and raised a brow.

“I don't know. I guess? You know how bad my memory is.”, Ava chuckled and stared at her glass of water before giving her friend a smile.

Honestly, she wasn't sure if she remembered. Maybe she did meet him back then. Maybe not.

“He's cute, isn't he? He even makes the pastries himself.”, Yunmi said and took a bit of her sandwich after inhaling her coffee.

“Yeah, he is nice, I guess.”, Ava said, looking over at the counter where Taeyong stood. She saw how his eyes met hers, holding the eye-contact for just a bit before he turned around and went to the back.

Weird.

“There will be a party tonight at their house.” Yunmi said, eyeing her friend once more. After Ava didn't answer right away Yunmi sighed.

“We should go. It will be fun.” she added.

“Since when do you want to go parties?”, Ava asked her friend, raising her brow. As long as she remembered Yunmi and her weren't the type of girls who went to parties. They usually preferred a good movie night with food over drinks and bad music. Even in college, Ava didn't attend many of those famous college parties she heard about.

“Their parties are usually really nice.”, she smiled softly and started to play with a strand of her brown hair.

“Mh-mh. Their parties or just someone at their parties?”, Ava teased her friend, poking her cheek.

Yunmi pouted a light shade of red on her cheeks. She caught her.

“Well, you won't know if you don't join.”, Yunmi poked out her tongue at Ava, laughing softly at her.

“Fine. But if I see Johnny I'll leave.”, Ava said firmly and looked at her hands for a second. She really didn't want to attend another party where he was after the last time, even if it was years ago.

“He lives there, genius. Of course he will be there. But it will be fun, I promise. Maybe you could even use the chance to talk to-”

A glance of Ava cut her friends words off, holding her hands up in defeat.

“Fine. Or ignore him. Just come with me. I'll introduce you to some cool people, okay?”

The girl groaned until she gave in.

“Okay. I will be there. Mark probably wants to go too, anyway.”, Ava said and rummaged in her bag, trying to find her phone.

“Probably.”, Yunmi answered, seemingly uninterested if the boy would join them or not.

“Mh, can't find my phone.”, Ava muttered, unable to find anything in her bag anyway.

“Well, the bookstore is right next-door, I'll just ask him there. I think he's working.”, she looked to her best friend who seemed to have spaced out for a second.

“You join me?”, she asked, touching Yunmis hand for a second. Her best friend shook her head, smiling at her.

“No no, I need to take a nap and a shower before the party. Just, um, say hello from me, will you?”, Yunmi stood up, taking her jacket over her arm, helping to put the empty plates and cups on the empty counter.

“Yeah, sure. See you then.”, Ava said putting the rest of the plates on the counter, a bit surprised about the sudden haste her friend was in.

She sighed taking a look around the café once more before leaving it for the day. Ava tried her best to not overthink the whole situation and slowly walked to the next door on the street, leading into the small bookstore her younger brother worked at.

She strolled through the filled shelves, inhaling the magnificent scent of all the bound books walking up to her most favourite isle – old classics. Her fingers trailed over the spines, feeling their different textures. She used to read a lot, every week a new book in her hand, ready to savour it in just one sitting. Back then, it felt easy to just sit down, a book in her hands and shutting the world out completely, focusing only on the words forming these beautiful pictures inside her head, making all these thoughts haunting her in real life go away just like that. When did she lose this talent? Nowadays, she just couldn't get herself to actually read a book. She continues to buy them, placing them prominently on her nightstand, in hopes for her to just grab it in the evening but the pile of books just grew bigger and bigger over the weeks until she finally stopped to even buy them. She hoped to get back into her once most loved hobby. Even if it was just for a few minutes.

“Hey, didn't expect you to visit me.”, she heard Mark saying and turned around, a big smile on her lips.

“I wanted to surprise you, I've actually met with Yunmi. We had breakfast in the café next door.”, Ava answered and looked at her brother. She chuckled mildly. He looked so grown-up and mature in his plain black shirt with his round glasses on, his dark hair falling into his face. She realized how different he looked from the last time she saw him. Unbelievable that he was already 20 years old.

“Oh-Uh, yeah it opened up a few weeks ago. The owner is Jaehyun and Johnny's roommate.”, Mark said after he scratched the nape of his neck. “H-How's Yunmi? She alright?”, he asked casually while sorting a book from his hand into the shelv.

“Yeah, I guess. She said hello but had to rush home.”, Ava answered, shrugging her shoulders.

She eyed her brother and how he fumbled with the hem of his shirt, he seemed to want to say something but decided not to.

“Anyway.”, he exhaled loudly and cleared his throat before smiling at Ava. “I'm happy you're visiting. Want me to show you around? I mean you technically know it, though.”, her brother chuckled.

But as the good sister she is she nodded and let her brother show her all the different types of book they had and which authors occasionally came to give a reading. Seeing his eyes lighten up just by the name of these authors made her heart melt. He explained passionately the several differences in their writing techniques and why they were his favourites. He told her how he fell in love with classic literature, especially romance and tragedy.

Ava listened to him swooning over different works and their means to past society, yet he even read modern novels. She looked at all the books, most of them she already read by herself when she was younger. She felt proud seeing him glowing up, doing what he loved without hiding.

“I just hope I'll be half as good as them.”, she heard her brother sighing when he put down the last book.

Ava put a hand on his slim shoulder and smiled at him warmly.

“I’m sure you will be. Trust me, I will be your biggest fan!”, she laughed and ruffled his hair, making him scrunch his nose before trying to fix his hair.

“Please. I appreciate the encouragement but it's still a long way. Plus mom and dad are still not very fond of the idea of me becoming an author. They think it's still a phase and that I will soon realize it's stupid and become a doctor like – well.”, he shrugged his shoulders before speaking out his thoughts.

Ava bit her lip. “I will tell them.”, she said, not believing her answer.

“When will you, though? I mean, I'm not pressuring you. I get it, it's hard but don't you think it will be even harder the longer it lasts? They're not stupid.”, Mark said looking at his sister, his eyes were filled with worry.

“I know. I'm just – imagine their disappointment. I need a plan, you know?”, she muttered, trying to avoid his gaze. She felt guilty for lying but she would feel even worse seeing the disappointment in her parents eyes when they realize she wasn't that perfect daughter they saw her as.

“Promise me you'll figure something out, okay? It's not healthy.”, he said, looking up when he heard the door open.

“Yes, I promise. Just give me some more time, will you?”, she pleaded at him, pouting as best as she possibly could.

“Sure.”, he rolled his eyes, sighing deeply before he put on a smile and waved at the new customer.

Ava turned around and saw two young men walking in.

“Hey guys, what are you doing here?”, Mark said and smiled, walking up to his friends.

Ava just sighed, silently asking the universe why it made life for her that hard.

“Hi.”, she just briefly said, trying not to look directly into Johnny's eyes. She even managed to ignore him and just gave Jaehyun a smile which he joined.

“Long time no see. You look good.”, Jaehyun said and brushed his hand briefly at her arm.

Ava chuckled, putting a strand of hair behind her ear. “Thanks.”

She felt Johnny looking at her standing next to Jaehyun, eyeing both of them. Just like she wanted him to do.

“We're actually looking for books for the café. Taeyong wants to have some more for visitors to read.”, Johnny said after clearing his throat. Ava's eyes wandered to Johnny's just for a quick second but she already found herself being mesmerized by his presence once again. She liked the way he wore his black hair, the strands falling into his face just perfectly. Her gaze locked at his lips while he spoke with Mark about the books Taeyong wanted and even though the name still rang a bell in the back of her head she couldn't free herself from the way Johnny's lips moved. She knew how soft they felt, recognizing the feeling just too well.

Her thoughts moved back to that night like they always did and the urge to confront him about why he decided to let her hang like that grew stronger. She knew that it would probably was just a kiss for most people but for her it felt so differently. It was romantic and intimate, just how she imagined kissing him over and over again when she was younger. Plus, him declaring his feelings for her made that memory even more perfect. Yet, it all shattered when he ignored her.

She felt a hand on her back and then a breath at her ear, before Jaeyhun whispered

“You good?”

She felt the grin on his face when she rolled her eyes and nodded.

For a split second she saw how Johnny turned his head towards her, looking away just another second later, continuing to talk to Mark.

“Will you be at our place tonight?”, Jaehyun asked, not moving his hand from her back.

“I guess so. Yunmi asked me, too.”, Ava smiled at Jaehyun, wordlessly thanking him.

“Well, you can't say no now. I'd be happy if you came.”, he smiled at her paired with a short wink before laughing with her.

She heard Johnny clearing his throat and looked up to him.

“Anyway, we should head back to the café or Taeyong will be mad at us for leaving him alone for too long.”, he said while taking books off Mark's arms he seemed to have collected for them.

“Sure.”, Jaehyun said and smiled at the others, before looking down at Ava again. “See you tonight then, can't wait.”, he said, stroking her back slightly before leaving behind Johnny.

Ava felt her brother's piercing gaze on her back while she tried to look away, shrugging her shoulders.

“Stop staring at me like that.”, she hissed at Mark and rolled her eyes. She finally looked at him but he just shook his head, wanting to say something but all he did was open his mouth for a second before closing it again, raising both of his hands.

“None of my business.”

･.｡*†*｡.･◆･.｡*†*｡.･◆･.｡*†*｡.･◆･.｡*†*｡.･

Ava's head felt already heavy without any alcohol in it. She stared at the dark street in front of her, trying to concentrate on driving the car her parents gladly allowed them to use to drive to the party. Of course, she didn't even want to drink. She didn't even want to attend the party at all but she had to admit that she was curious – curious about how the people had changed, curious about how they'd behave and obviously curious about certain of these people whose names she didn't want to think about again.

Even when the last time she visited the house was three years ago she remembered the way so clearly as if she'd just was there yesterday. She took a glance at Mark who was sitting next to hear, looking out of his window, seemingly way up in his own thoughts she wished to read.

Ava sighed quietly, focusing her eyes on the street. She felt anxious about meeting all these people. No one knew about her not so graceful career, still thinking she studied medicine on some ivy league college back in the city everyone dreamed of living. The thought of them asking all these questions she already had to answer her parents made her shiver. Maybe she should just hide in a closet until Mark wanted to go back home. Would be smarter than awkwardly running into someone again – once a day is enough.

Yet she took hours to get ready, carefully picking out an outfit, lipstick and the way she wore her hair, trying to look casual but not too casual. The chance of running into him was just too high for her to not try to make herself look presentable.

The street got more narrow, leading into the woods where the house was.

“I still don't get why they're living in the woods.”, she sighed and looked at Mark for a second before driving on the long gateway leading to the house.

“Taeyong inherited it from his grandma or something.”, Mark answered, waking up from his thoughts.

Ava just nodded, already seeing some more cars and people standing outside. She couldn't see enough to look at their faces. The girl quickly parked the vehicle and stretched her arms once she got out, looking around. The late summer air was still warm and comfortable yet one could sense the upcoming autumn as some leaves slowly turned darker.

The siblings walked down the path leading to the entrance, which led to a huge front yard. It was lighted with small paper lamps, showing off some of the landscaping done. She even heard a fountain splashing somewhere. She looked around, not quite sure if she'd remember the place at all. The house was surrounded by a traditional stone fence and she wondered how old it was. Ava could already hear the people enjoying themselves, with loud music pounding in her ear.

From what she saw through the darkness and the sparse light the house itself looked huge enough to probably fit a hundred people. The door was left open, shoes flooding the entrance area.

After bumping into dozens of people greeting her, smiling and waving she helplessly looked at Mark who was still right behind her looking for someone.

“You made it!”, Ava heard Yunmi screaming in her hear, an arm around her waist, pressing a kiss on her cheek. Ava could smell a note of alcohol in her friend's breath and chuckled.

“How much did you already drink?”, she asked but Yunmi waved her off, her gaze meeting Mark.

“Oh hi Mark. Nice to see you, how are you?”, she asked politely while resting her head on Ava's shoulder.

“Uhm, I'm good thanks. And you?”, he scratched is neck, looking away, probably trying to find his own friends.

“Life's great.”, she answered and laughed, removing her head from her friend's shoulder to take a sip from her cup, shaking it in front of Ava's face.

“Want something? I can totally mix you a drink.”

“No, thanks. I don't drink.”, she answered and smiled apologetic.

“I'm gonna look for Johnny. Hit me up when you want to go home, alright?”, Mark said and disappeared in the moving crowd of people.

“I take it you don't want to look for Johnny?”, Yunmi asked her friend, directly looking at her, rolling her eyes when Ava shook her head.

“Nope. So, who are these cool people you wanted me to get to know?”, Ava smiled.

Yunmi entangled her fingers with hers and dragged her through the crowd, brabbling something about a girl and a boy.

Not long after Ava spotted to semi-familiar people her friend shouted at. A girl with a black long bob smiled warmly and waved.

The boy, a bit shorter than her, with short black hair smiled and greeted her. “Ava, you must remember Ten and Sunhyung, right? We went to Highschool together.”, Yunmi introduced them but Ava wasn't exactly sure who they were. She barely remembered anyone from Highscool, though. At least not their names.

“We were in another class, though.”, Sunhyung chuckled.

“Nice to meet you. So what are you guys doing?”, Ava asked them.

“Well, we're actually officers right now. Ten is my partner.”, Sunhyung explained and smiled at Ten, who just nodded and raised his cup.

“Not on duty tonight, though.”, he winked and exed the rest of the liquid.

“Yunmi told me you're studying medicine? Pretty cool. How's life in the States? This town must bore you to death.”, Sunhyung chuckled and looked at her cup, seemingly disappointed that it was empty.

“I'm actually enjoying it. It's like a vacation.”, Ava answered and hoped no one would ask her to further elaborate on her studies, which weren't even real.

“I'd give everything to travel to a real city. The only “crimescenes” we're looking at are rather boring. It's mostly just noise disturbance or someone's speeding who isn't from here.”, Sunhyung rolled her eyes.

“Hey, last week we had one burglary!”, Ten protested.

“You mean the sixteen-year-old boy who stole some Vodka from the store? How exciting.”, his partner answered sarcastically and laughed.

“I need a refill, you want something?”, Yunmi asked in the group as she apparently spotted something at the bar which needed her attention.

Ten and Sunhyung both nooded eagerly. She didn't bother to look at Yunmi, knowing she'd say no anyway.

Ava's eyes followed her friend to the bar, by which a tall young men stood. She saw how Yunmi straightened her back and smiled at the guy, who she probably knew. Ava noticed how her friend pushed her long hair back and saw how her mouth formed into a laugh after the boy said something. Ava tilted her head, trying to figure out if the knew him or not. She would probably remember a guy like him. He was handsome, yet his face had something sheepish when he talked to Yunmi.

“That's Lucas.”, she heard Sunhyung say and snapped out of her thoughts, “He moved her two years ago. Always hangs out with Johnny and the rest.”, she added and Ava raised her brows. She was pretty sure she never saw or even heard of him before.

“I swear Yunmi has the biggest crush on him. Always swooning over his hands or something.”, Ava heard Sunhyung continue and asked herself why exactly her best friend didn't tell her anything about that guy.

“Well, quite obvious that they're flirting.”, Ten added and nodded.

“Yeah, I'm betting they end hooking up tonight.”, said Sunyhung.

“Never. Both won't make the first moves. They're flirting for months and nothing interesting happened.”, her partner replied.

“Got it in my guts. Tonight is the night.”, Sunhyung nodded with a stern voice.

“Pff, wanna bet? 50 they won't hook up.”, Ten chuckled.

“Make it 100.”, Sunhyung answered, looking at her partner while shaking his hand.

Ava's gaze meanwhile scanned the room for someone else. As if someone read her thoughts, Johnny came down the stairs with Mark right behind him.

Johnny's eyes met Ava's for a moment and she clenched her jaw. She noticed how he was moving towards her and how her heart began to beat faster in her chest.

“I'm gonna get some water or something. Be right back.”, she mumbled and quickly disappeared in the crowd, trying to keep herself as small as possible. Her eyes searched for a kitchen, which she finally found. Gladly, there weren't any people in it. Probably because the whole alcohol was at the bar and no one here wanted to drink something else.

She sighed and looked for a water bottle but all she saw were some empty cups.

“What are you looking for?”, she suddenly heard a way too familiar voice and turned around just to see Johnny standing in the door frame, a small smile on his lips.

“Just some water.”, she answered quietly, trying her best to look away from his dammed face. She saw how he moved next to her and opened a door next to her which apparently belonged to the fridge. Just a second later he handed her a bottle of cool water. Ava looked up and mumbled a quick thank you but it was enough to catch him smiling again, which made her heartbeat increase.

“I'm glad you came.”, Johnny said and leaned with his back against the door, looking down at her.

“Yunmi practically forced me to. It's nice, though.”, she answered, fumbling with the bottle in her hands, not sure what else to do with them.

Silence flooded the room and all the questions burned on her tongue. Taking a deep breath, she managed to look up at him, meeting his gaze. She locked her eyes with his for much longer as initially wanted and already felt how she got lost in his gaze just like everytime he looked at her.

He was handsome. His black hair messily falling into his face, his beautifully shaped lips curling upwards to form a small smile. Johnny's dark eyes seemed to look right through her.

“Can I ask you something?”, Ava finally found her voice and gulped, without breaking of the gaze.

“Anything.”, he answered, his voice unusual quiet.

“I need to know why you ignored me after that night.”

“What exactly do you mean?”, his brows furrowed.

“My last night here. You kissed me. You told me you'd call me the next day but you never did. And when I tried to reach out you simply ignored all my messages.” she sighed loudly, breaking their connection for a second, to gather her thoughts, “Seriously I felt so stupid. I still do.”

“Ava, listen, it's not what you think.”, she heard him answer and looked at his eyes once more.

“Then tell me, Johnny. Seriously. It's driving me insane.”, she pleaded, letting her arms drop in frustration.

Silence came up once more. The girl's frustration grew with any second passing by, not sure what she could say to finally get him to answer properly.

“I really thought about every single reason why you did that.”, she sighed, pain growing inside of her body, “And the only possible reason left is what you never liked me at all.”, she said, her voice just a small whisper, anxious about his answer.

“It's not that I don't like you. It's quite the opposite.”, Johnny said as she looked up at him again.

“I can't believe you.”, she sighed and furrowed her brows, thinking about his reasons why when he liked her.

“Listen, I'm sorry if I had hurt you but it's not that simple.”, he tried to explain but Ava just snorted and chuckled bitterly.

“Seriously just tell me directly into my face that I imagined all of that and that you're not interested. I'm not a kid and you're owing me that.” she answered, pressing her lips together.

“I can't tell you that because it would be a lie.”, now it was Johnny who sighed.

“It's the only possible explanation. Don't you want to tell me that you're not interested because you don't want to hurt me? Honestly, it would've hurt less if you'd just told me instead of ghosting me for years!”, her voice got louder such as her thoughts, which were going crazy inside of her head.

“That's not it.”, now frustration filled his voice as well. Ava looked into his face, seeing how he pushed his hair back, seemingly unsure about what to say.

“God, this is so stupid. I'm just gonna go.”, she dropped her arms in defeat, tired and annoyed. She didn't want to maintain this nonsense conversation when she wouldn't get a proper answer anyway.

Just when she wanted to move out of the door she felt Johnny's hand on her shoulder.

“Just – don't go, please.”, she heard him say and rolled her eyes.

“Then tell me why.”, as soon as she turned around she felt how Johnny laid his arms around her figure, pressing her against his chest softly.

“I'm sorry. I honestly am, please believe me.”, she felt how he buried his head in heir hair and wrapped her arms around his torso, her heart hammering loudly in her chest.

“I want to.”, she mumbled in the material of his black shirt and tightened her grip around him.

It felt unbelievably good to hug him, yet she still didn't get an answer from him, making her anxiety rise inside her body. She still didn't know why and the sudden touch confused her even more.

Ava started to wiggle when she realized her thoughts wouldn't shut up. Reluctantly, she looked up at him, loosening the hug a bit, yet not ready to let him go completely.

“This is confusing. I just want to know what's going on, please.” she pleaded once more, locking her eyes with his, just staring into them, trying to find answers.

She felt how Johnny moved one of his hands up her back, reaching her head, carefully putting one of her strands of hair behind her hear, his hand lingering on her cheek.

Her breath quickened when her eyes wandered over his face, absorbing every inch of it, until she stopped at his just perfectly shaped lips. She licked over hers, memories of how his tasted on hers flooded her mind. Her gaze went up again, meeting his once again that night.

The girl was once again hypnotised by his gaze, unable to look away this time.

Without further thinking about it, she put her hands on his neck and pulled him closer to her, to finally press her lips on his. His lips were just as soft as she memorized them, fitting on hers just as she remembered. The kiss was careful, still anxious about his reaction but when he actually pressed her closer to him, deepening the kiss her mind went completely blank.

Her eyes fell shut, her fingers slightly tightening on the back of his neck, trying to keep him even closer. Their lips moved in perfect sync, just as they belonged on each other. The girl cherished every second of it, how his hands cupped her face while one thumbs caressed her cheek, touching her so softly, as if she could break any second. The taste of his lips were sweet, she couldn't even taste a bit of alcohol, which ensure her that this was what he wanted.

As soft as the kiss was, she knew she wanted more. She needed more. After all these months of anxiety, pain and worry she finally kissed him again. Ava opened her mouth for him, allowing his tongue to play with hers, just like she always wanted to be kissed by him. Her fingers buried in his thick her, while his hands trailed down her body to rest on her hips.

Just before she could press her body closer Johnny pushed himself away, as if he'd burn himself.

Completely puzzled, the girl stared at him, not understanding what was going on.

“I can't. I'm sorry.”, she heard him say, his voice sounding strained, as he quickly ran out of the kitchen, leaving Ava alone once again.

She stared at her hands, her heart still beating fast, trying to catch her own breath. The girl felt how tears formed in the corners of her eyes and how her chest, which felt so light and carefree the other second, now felt like some heavy stone was laying on it, stealing her breath away. She had the sudden urge of fresh air and stumbled out of the kitchen, trying to leave everyone in that house behind her while not being seen. She couldn't manage to explain her situation to anyone. She wanted to be alone.

Ava breathed in the cold air and closed her eyes for a second, trying to get as much distance as possible between her and that house. She took a look at her smartphone to check the time but it wasn't even midnight yet, and she didn't want to be a killjoy and spoil Mark's fun. She made her way out of the garden and looked at the woods behind the property and stopped for a second. She heard how the wind whistled through the branches and how the leftover leaves trailed through the air. Her heart was still pounding in her chest, the latest event flooding her mind. This didn't make any sense to her. Why did he kiss her again? It wasn't just a casual kiss, she could feel that. And this time it wasn't her freaking imagination. The way he hold her and returned her kiss, the way he pressed her against his body – that wasn't imagination.

She actually believed him. She trusted his words yet he was acting like something completely different was on his mind and she just couldn't figure it out. Her thoughts went crazy and she felt how her throat got sore. Why did he stop when it felt so good? Any why did he leave her like that, not explaining his behaviour once again.

Ava kept going towards the trees, sometimes looking up at the sky which wasn't as clear as she thought. Thick black clouds were blocking the moon and stars and she sighed, yet it felt nice to move and properly breathe since the air in the house was muggy and way too hot. Or maybe it just felt like that to her. Her body felt exhausted, yet still full of adrenaline. What did she do wrong? Once again, she went through all the possibilities and couldn't get the hand of it. She didn't want to get hurt again by him, yet there she was. Feeling exactly the same as two years ago. It felt like some kind of absurd Deja Vu.

She flinched when she heard a loud crackle next to her and squinted her eyes, when she couldn't see anything. For a second, she thought someone was here, probably some drunk people enjoying themselves in the woods. She rolled her eyes and continue to stroll when she heard a noise again, but this time it sounded more like a hiss. Ava turned around, trying to see anything but it was too dark. Maybe some brainless jock saw her and tried to scare her.

Another crunching noise, this time right behind her, made her flinch once more, the hairs on her neck standing up. She felt her muscles tighten, when she turned around yet still no one was there. The girl looked a round several times, until she decided to head back to the house which she only saw in some distance thanks to the lights outside. Maybe she could just wait inside the car until Mark wanted to leave the party.

For a few seconds, it was silent again when she heard another noise, this time way closer to her, besides her.

Ava started to run, fear suddenly filling her body as her breath and heartbeat quickened, a feeling of danger flowing her body. The noises got louder, someone was definitely following her. She heard fast footsteps approaching her, whispers and hisses starting to echo inside her head, making her want to scream. She shook her head, trying to leave the voices behind but it was like they were just stuck, burying every other sound under it.

The blood pulsated in her head, breathing loudly. Sweat running down her forehead while her feet tried to run as fast as she could, yet she didn't seem to come any closer to the house.

A dark laugh suddenly appeared as she saw a black figure suddenly standing in front her, which made her stop in her steps, almost falling over.

She couldn't see a face, nor anything else which could possibly explain who it was. The figure took a stop closer to her, making her move backwards until her back met with once of the trees, the tree bark scratching her back uncomfortably.

The girl blinked once and the figure was gone, her blood still pulsating in her veins. She gulped, looking around before continuing to run in the direction she thought was the right one, while still turning her head every other second.

Suddenly she felt a breath on her neck, paired with a deep chuckle, making her stop in her tracks once more. She wanted to ask something, scream, anything but it felt like she suddenly had a lump in her throat. The voices inside her head growing louder and louder with each second passing by.

As soon as she wanted to start running again, a hand grabbed her wrist, forcing her to stand still. The grip was harsh and strong, not moving an inch even when she tried her best to wiggle her wrist free. She grunted and tried to take a look at the person behind her but she couldn't move at all.

“Oh no, you can't look at me. Not now, dear child.”, a voice said. It was more of a whisper than a real voice. The sound seemed hypnotic.

“There, there, hold still. Don't scream now.”, he said as she tried to wiggle herself free until her body stiffened. Suddenly, it was like all the noises she heard a second ago were gone. She didn't hear the whistles of the wind, the arches or their leaves. Nothing. It felt like the was in a vacuum, only the voice echoing in her head, telling her to hold still.

“You see, it's nothing personal.”, he continued and chuckled, sending shivers through her body.

“It's just, you got to understand that you're part of something bigger.”, she felt a hot breath on her neck again, making her want to scream but it felt like she lost her voice.

He heard him click his tongue, followed by a cold finger stroking over her neck.

“Such a pity. So beautiful. I see what he's found in you, honestly. But, you know, sacrifices must be made. And such a pretty one.”, the voice continued.

Tears started to form in her eyes, rolling down her cheek, burning her skin. She didn't know what was going to happen but she felt afraid. More than that – she feared for her life. Something in his presence made her body fill with this primal fear.

“Oh, so pretty while crying, what a sight.”, a finger wiped one of her tears, chuckling mildly.

“You know, I like it when they scream. And now you need to scream, so he can hear you, you know?”, like a snap, Ava seemed to found her voice and screamed in a high-pitched voice.

Suddenly he let her go, making her stumble over her feet, her knees meeting the cold earth. She coughed while pulling herself up, commanding her body to start running again. When her feet started to move and her thoughts came back, the voices also did. They laughed at her in different tones, from every direction. It felt like a circle was around her, closing closer around her, laughing louder with every step she took.

Another desperate scream fell of her lips as she pressed her hands against her ears, trying to make the voices go but they got even louder, so loud she felt like becoming deaf. She couldn't even hear her own breath anymore, while tears ran down her face.

“It's so much fun to play, don't you think?”, she heard his voice echoing inside her head again, the screams suddenly disappearing.

“You know why? Because I always win.”, a chuckle echoed inside her head, turning into a loud laugh next to her ear.

“Maybe he'll find you, maybe he won't. I hope he does, otherwise it would spoil the fun.”, the voice added and she felt the grip on her wrist again.

“Ah, I'd really want to keep you for myself, such a shame.” he sighed, her body stiffen again, whilst she felt like choking, unable to bring out the slightest sound.

“It's nothing personal against you, my love. You just picked the wrong person to spend your time with, that's all.”

Her eyes widened in fear, her mouth suddenly hanging open without leaving a sound when the world around her suddenly turned pitch black.

AtsuLucy & AtsuKyou

Disclaimer:

I do not hate any of the characters, except Fukuchi Ochi, and I respect every ship BSD has. If I could marry every single one of 'em, I would. This is a post of my opinions about AtsuLucy and AtsuKyou. Also, there are manga spoilers here so I hope you wouldn't mind. I hope I won't get canceled here like how I got in Facebook because I ship AtsuLucy and not AtsuKyou/Shin Soukoku. As I've said earlier, I respect all the goddamn ships and I just want somebody to here my opinions or I just want to simply say it here. If I've said a wrong thing, please notify me. Thank you and take your time reading it!

I am a big AtsuLucy shipper. To be honest, I like how they look out for each other. Here are some of my insights and why do I ship them:

They experienced the same type of abuse (not that I wanted to be abused lol) so there might be times that only the two of them can know what's this and that (okay, is head canons alrighty? I hope so);

Atsushi is a good guy. In fact, he is a cute adorable fluffy little angel but we all know that he doesn't like his enemies like the Port Mafia and The Guild. But when they defeated Lucy's Anne of Abyssal Red, he felt sorry and said that he understands what she feels;

The way Atsushi sympathizes with her despite knowing just a part of her past, I love it. I need more of it. It makes my heart flutter;

Also, the way he approached Lucy after losing to him, is so cute, awkward and soft all in one. Imagine your enemy asking if they can do anything for you, damn Lucy is one lucky girl;

Manga Spoiler, when the ADA was accused of being the nation's terrorist, Lucy made a rallied outside the government just to say that "Atsushi is not evil" and "The Detective Agency is innocent", oh how I wished she worked in the ADA even as a part time (it was Ango who spilled that Lucy did it and maybe the latter didn't expect that);

Atsushi was certain that he saw Lucy after the Three Way War and said that he hopes Lucy isn't teaming up with the criminal organizations (Port Mafia's one of the organizations I guess) to take revenge on them. And please, notice how Atsushi was straight looking at the paper he was holding and then BAM! he saw Lucy, I mean if it's the tiger's ability then otay, I'm not gonna be delulu anymore *sniffs*;

Lucy gave Atsushi the parachute she was saving for her own escape. She let him escape Moby Dick through her ability and Atsushi was worried about her safety for she's gonna be trapped there. He even promised to save her there and he was going to went he infiltrated Moby Dick but sadly, Shin Soukoku suddenly sailed so even I have forgotten that Atsushi promised that he was going to save Lucy. It was funny for me when they got a chance to have a little casual talk when they've retrieved Kyouka's parents' documents;

Manga Spoiler, lastly, Lucy was a great asset when AtsuKyou are heading next to the Sky Casino, where Sigma is. After some events happened in the Sky Casino, Sigma fell on the sky and Atsushi jumps out of the Sky Casino and catches him but he eventually let go of Atsushi. Nathaniel's ability hits Atsushi's tail, which is his support, and he was knocked out. Then my girl Lucy saw it and jumps off the Sky Casino too (like it wouldn't cost her life), she reached out for Atsushi's hand and then voila! Welcome to Anne's room;

Another one is Lucy calls Atsushi by the name "Toraneko" which means tabby cat like how Akutagaw calls Atsushi "jinko." And then I just realized that Kyouka never called Atsushi's name or maybe it's just me?

Anyways, I am itching for Bungou Stray Dogs Season 4 ackk!!

Yes. I did shipped AtsuKyou at the beginning of the series. Okay, lemme just share some of my insights about this ship:

I shipped them when I literally thought she was 16 but it turned out that she's 14. It's the first red flag for me. I know that Atsushi is a baby but Kyouka is literally a minor.

At first I thought it's was fine 'cause they only have 4 years of gap;

But had anyone never thought that Kyouka's behavior towards Atsushi is like Akutagawa's behavior towards Dazai;

Remember that one scene in season 2 where Atsushi was finally caught by The Guild and Kyouka just stood there crying and just said, "Why? Why did you show me the light? Why did you give me hope? Goodbye. Please don't give me anymore light."

Okay, I admit. That was very pathetic. But as I think about it, she had trauma and was literally abused for three years or so, so I really can't blame her. Kyouka was told that she is more suited in the dark and all she knew that time is that she killed her parents with her ability. What a sad life, bub;

When I've read the manga, I've read it after season 2 'cause I was growing impatient for season 3, there were so many changes to the anime like the second picture of AtsuKyou up there. Atsushi was supposed to land on Kyouka's shoulders and not in her lap;

The scene where Atsushi asked Kyouka how's the bathwater was so cute. They looked like a couple to me and it just reminded me that I'm gonna be single forever;

And when Kyouka passed the entrance exam, I was so happy (of course who wouldn't). I dunno why but I saw a platonic relationship in my laptop's screen. (Their "Welcome home", "I'm home" of them looks like they're a married couple tho). But when Kunikida scolded the both of them, I saw siblings. ISTG THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY EYES!

To be straight to the point, I think she's either unhealthy attached to Atsushi because he showed her light or she's just overprotective of him (seriously, a 14 y.o girl protecting a 18 y.o baby? otay).

Kyouka is one the characters with a great character development. Some say her character is boring and I can't blame y'all 'cause she have a lil bit of Sasuke's aura, like that one quiet kid sitting beside the window with the face saying that her clan was murded (Kurapika is now drowning in an indescribable emptiness) but Kyouka has a visible soft side so she cute, otay? Tho I wonder where did she learn to drove that car on Dead Apple at the age of 14 'cause my 14 y.o ass can't even step on the gas and brake without shaking in fear. Long story short, despite everything happening on BSD, I'm still a AtsuLucy shipper. I'm still rooting for Shin Soukoku, but AtsuLucy is my heaven.

Adoption (part 2)

For couple of minutes Cornelia's parents were discussing the suggestion with each other, while I was standing, listening, being patient. When they finally decided to speak, they looked at me.

Cornelia's mother: We have thought about it, and before telling our decision, may we ask something?

Madam Death: You're welcome to ask anything.

Cornelia's father: Will we still be able to guard our daughter or watch over her?

Madam Death: No creature in any realm has a right to forbid parents to watch over their child. Plus, as a creature with little parent experience, I will always need your guidance.

Cornelia's mother: I'm sorry if it sounds rude, but it's strange to see a divine creature asking guidance from humans.

Madam Death: It's not that strange as you might think. Every creature has their own views on parenting children, even divine creatures like me.

Cornelia's mother: Oh, really? That's new.

Cornelia's father: Not really, but it's surprising for sure. Anyways, can we at least see our daughter and speak to her? Please?

Madam Death: Right now?

They nodded together.

Cornelia's mother: Just....we are not sure if we're able to talk to her ever again. At least....say that we're with her.

They looked at me with begging look. Little do they know they could still visit her in dreams every time. But I can't say no to it. I know how it is important for them.

Madam Death: I will help you to accomplish such request, but it will be as a lucid dream. Cornelia and you will still be able to interract like it would be in reality, but it will still be a dream. That's all I can do.

They knew it without me, but still their faces smiled in honest happiness.

Cornelia's father: Thank you....thank you so much.

I didn't say anything and offered them my hands. As we held each other's hands, I used my powers to teleport us to dream realm, to Cornelia's dream. It was dark around, empty, only Cornelia was sitting. She was looking around, looking for something or someone. I felt she was scared. Parents started to call her.

Cornelia's parents: Cornelia, sweetie!

She heard them. She turned around towards the sound and noticed them, standing next to me. With tears in her eyes Cornelia ran towards her parents, hugging them, not believing her eyes. Parents couldn't believe either. I was just standing, watching. It was their moment.

Cornelia's mother: We're so happy to see you again, dear.

Cornelia's father: We missed you so much.

Cornelia nodded, saying she missed them too. I could feel her fear, deep inside she knew it was a dream, but how much she was afraid to ruin it. I could hear them talking to each other.

Cornelia's father: I'm so sorry, dear. I wish I could prevent what happened that day. It was not supposed to be like this.

Blame was covering him, but Cornelia denied it, even with her silent voice. And honestly, I'm with her.

Cornelia's mother: Still mute as I remember. My poor girl.

She hugged Cornelia tightly and carefully at the same time. I kept standing and watching, but only little time left till the morning light vanishes the dream. Cornelia wanted to say so many things to her parents, so many feelings to let out.

Cornelia's mother: My dear, my sunshine, I know how much you want to talk with us. We will still have time again. But right now, we need to tell you something.

Cornelia's father: Madam Death told us about your ability. As much as we wished it didn't happen to you, we can't change it. Because of it, Madam Death suggested her being your guardian.

Cornelia surprised. I could feel her confusion, while parents continue to explain.

Cornelia's father: Death told us how you wanted to help her and to follow her, despite any danger. If not all of this, we would probably not come to this decision.

Cornelia's mother: We have been watching over you for some time, tried to guard you and protect you from above. But our strength is fading away with every time, and....there is a chance that one day we won't be able to protect you....

Tears appeared in her eyes as Cornelia hugged her mother, crying too, telling her that it's okay, that she can stand up for herself. Father hugged them too. I couldn't help, but feel sadness and happiness mixed together. It even seemed that....a crystally clear tear came from my dead eyes. It's been eons since my eyes cried. I made a small step, making them look at me.

Madam Death: There was never any case where parents weren't able to protect their child, even in afterlife. Believe in yourself, like Cornelia did. Maybe not at once. But with time.

Cornelia nodded in agreement. Parents were amazed by my words, even tho I didn't say anything unnatural.

Madam Death: Sure, physical caretaker is supposed to be in human realm, it's neccessary. But it doesn't mean that caretaker will replace parents' love and care. Even I will not replace it, only give my own care and support.

Cornelia was confused for a moment, but quickly realised what I was talking about. She is a smart girl. She was stunned for a moment, not believing what is happening. Cornelia's father patted her shoulder.

Cornelia's father: I know that you're astonished, dear, but that's what Madam Death suggested.

Cornelia's mother: Since none of the family wanted to adopt you, she suggested us that she will take care of you. I wish we could wait a bit longer, but it's been two years that nobody took care of you. Plus your ability....

Cornelia's father: And yet, Madam Death didn't act with rush and called us to help with such decision. And so we're here, to make such decision. Only with your decision things will go. Of course it doesn't mean that we will stop our duty.

Cornelia took a moment to think. She tried to rethink every information. I could feel her hesitation and happiness, doubts and determiantion mixed together as one. I knew how she wanted to follow me, to help me after what she saw, but Cornelia wasn't expecting it to be that soon. Such decisions are hard to make, but I kept waiting. Waiting until finally she gave her sign. And her sign was.....an agreement. An agreement of me taking care of her. Parents were amazed by such decision of hers, even me. However she made it under one condition: her parents are allowed to visit her in dreams as much as they need. Parents were surprised by such condition, and yet they didn't show any disagreement. Same for me. They all trusted me, and such trust is a big responsibility, which I will take.

Madam Death: Well, since you made an agreement, I think it's time for us to go.

Cornelia was surprised. That soon, she thought. And then they noticed a light that tried to get into Cornelia's dream, a sunlight.

Cornelia's mother: How time flies fast, even in dreams.

Cornelia's father: Yeah....Shall we wake up? Together.

Cornelia didn't want to do it so soon, and yet the time was running out. I patted her shoulder, reasurring her that she will see them again. Cornelia hesitated, but then nodded and held parents' hands. With a smile they went to the light. And me...I was staying behind, watching them walking together, like they were still alive. A family...whose bond is stronger than anyone else. And it was time....to wake up.....

It was so noisy in orphanage. Kids were running towards the guest hall. I could hear their happy noises while walking, their excitement, thinking that finally they could leave the walls of the orphanage. Even Cornelia joined them. And finally when they all got into the hall, the caretaker said to me.

Caretaker: Alright, here are all the children. Whom did you want to adopt, lady?

I could see children's face excited, while Cornelia was confused at first. But as soon as she stood in front of me....her eyes sparkled. She recognized me. I stood and looked at her with smile. The caretaker noticed it with surprise.

Caretaker: You want to adopt this girl? Are you sure you-?

But sentence was broken by sudden hug of Cornelia. Kids surprised too, while me....I just smiled and hugged her back.

Madam Death (human form): Hello, dear.

I could feel her tears of happiness running on her cheeks. Kids of course sighed and walked back to their rooms, while caretaker walked to me.

Caretaker: So it's your final decision, ma'am? Shall we sign documents?

I looked at caretaker with smile while Cornelia kept hugging me. I nodded slightly and pronounced my final answer.

Yes.

The time was night, the date was wednesday and it was cold and dark because the winter is approached. The lamps in the street gave to the road a dim-lit light as well as the sidewalk. She walked directly to the bridge, and no, she doesnt wanted to commit suicide, she just wanted to be alone, sang out her sadness in the night.

"Everyone got their soulmate... Tony got Pepper, Thor has Jane, Clint already had a family and two kid, Natasha and Bruce are a couple... Hell even Steve with Bucky"

She thought that and started to sing:

Can you hear the silence?

Can you see the dark?

Can you fix the broken?

Can you feel my heart?

I'm scared to get close and I hate being alone.

I long for that feeling to not feel at all.

The higher I get, the lower I'll sink.

I can't drown my demons, they know how to swim.

Can you feel my heart?

Can you feel...?

Her beautyful voice slowly closed, a knot grew in her throat as she started to sob, then cry. She felt nothing but darkness and being alone, while she was the heart of her team. The fact and happy memories didnt helped. But remembered when Steve laughed in the joke, remembered when Tony gave her a compliment about her progress, the training in the gym with Nat, sometimes with Bucky or Steve, even the archery competition with Clint. Her brain closed out those memories and forced her to not let inside. On the other hand... a tall, slim figure watched her. He has got long black hair, a pair of mesmerizing emerald green eyes, sharp features wich was particularly attractive, pale skin and mysterious aura. He hid in the shadow, just like he did in his childhood. He understood her pain, what's more, he felt the same. Being lonlely and left behind. To be honest, the girl would gave everything for a hug and being in a comfy place... Between someone's arm.

-Yes. I can feel it. Why are you here in those times? It's dark, dangerous and you dont know how many serial killer around you. You should go home.

-I dont think that two killer would've such a good talk like us.

Said the girl without looking back. She wasnt scared, she was still sad. The man, however was suprised from the answer.

-In fact, I'd be happy if you'd kill me right here.

-Why would I? I mean I'm not going to kill you.

-Then why are you here? Why dont you leave me alone? You know what? You're right... I'm going home and put on my "nothing happened me, i'm perfectly fine" mask.

Then without a single word, she vanished from the bridge back to the Avengers Tower, where ofc everyone was happy. Well, almost. While our girl was in her room, deep in her thoughts, the black haired man stormed through rooms, used the elevator until he found his brother. He knocked on the door, with a bit of nervousness. Soon, a tall, muscular, bearded blonde man opened the door. His face immediately light up btw. He loved his not so little brother.

-Where you've been Loki?

-None of your business brother.

-Then why are you energised? You always nap and brood in silence. Something has changed I can tell.

-Whatever. How can someone make a sad person happy?

-Someone wants make you happy, or you are the one who doesnt want to commit a crime?

-This time, the second one brother.

Loki quckly arranged his face before Thor could've figured out what caused the change in him. He really hoped that the girl told the truth to him, but doesnt thought that she's inside the Tower like he or everyone.

-Well... Kind words helps most of the time.

-Geez, she wanted to die, by my hands. BY MY HANDS! Shes even more depressed than me brother.

-How she looked out?

-Well, she was at my chest height, or at least i think, she sat on the ground, and i'm not a cat, I cant see in the dark... Btw she had dark hair, maybe brown or black, waist lenght, straight. Her voice was.... Truly beautyful, even when it broke and started to cry.

-Hmm... Looks like you met with Valr. Oh brother, if you really want to know her better, it might be a big bite for you. She only talks when someone ask something from her, and I've never seen or heard her laughing. Most of the time she is in the library, gym or in her room when she isnt on a mission, out here with us. But to be honest, it could be anyone. I wish you good luck, if you really saw Valr... She's a worthy warrior.

-One more question before Ieave. Does she used to attend at dinner?

Thor nodded as an answer for the question, then closed the door after Loki, who teleported to the library. He found it empity tho. But at the other hand, Valr successfully picked herself up from the floor and walked to the common kitchen. She sighed in relief, she was alone, but not for a long time. As the time passed, the table was ready for the dinner. A whole set of plates, forks and knifes with table napkins. As the clock hit 7:30pm, the rest of the team slowly started to attend here and fill the room with energy and happines... The first, and most hungriest person was Bucky, then Steve, after them Natasha and Bruce. Thor followed them with Loki who seemed distant from the others. Clint arrived before the two god. As usual, Tony didnt showed up.

-Ah, Lady Valr, take a seat and eath with us.

-Thanks Thor, but I'm not hungry. I already ate and now I'm full.

-At least, stay with us and drink Val'.

-This cant cause any problem I guess.

The god of mischief immediately looked at Valr from the corner of his eye, when she lied to Thor without batting an eye. He already liked her, and planned to give her leftover food. Somehow he felt what the girl felt. The hardness of keeping the mask on... He greeted as an old friend. Sadness, even depression? Those kind of feelings too, but he played along with Valr. After they finished the dinner Steve stayed in the kitchen with Bucky to do the dishes and everyone went to their room. Except Loki, who kept an eye on her and sneaked up some food for her. He knocked on the door.

-Yes? It's open.

-Thank god it's open, I brought food for you Lady Valr.

-Why? I said I'm not hungry.

But Loki just smirked under his nonexistent mustache and placed the plate on the table. He found her reaction rather funny...

-Honey, you can not lie to the god of mischief.

-Great. Thanks for the food, you can go away and leave me alone. I dont need anyone in my life.

-Really? Then why are you scared to get close and hate being alone?

-I said, you can go away and leave me alone. Are you deaf or what?

-Slow down Lady Valr, there isnt such a reason to behave so mean, but as you wish. I leave you alone now, but I'll keep an eye on you.

-This is what I missed... I dont need baby sitting.

-Have a goodnight, Lady Valr.

If she could have a good night, she'd have a dream, but the next day's morning she went on a mission with Bucky. So she woke up at 5am, streched a bit, then had her regular morning routine before grabbed the suitcase and went to the kitchen, where Bucky waited for her. The smell of coffe enchanted a smile to her lips. The man with the metal hand greeted with a nod, and offered her a cup of coffe. Luckily he knew how Valr likes the caffeined black-ish liquid.

-I cant believe you are in this mission, I know how much do you hate Russia.

-Yes, but you cant dance with Nat, and noone else can speak fluent russian beside me. Do you have that magic tho?

-Poof. It will last while we're close to each other. Maybe one mile... I didnt need to use this spell until then.

-Wow. You amaze me every time Valr.

-Now let's go, I'm sure Tony already booked a flight to Moscow...

They boarded the plane and sat in silence after they talked through the plan. Bucky, who could never escape fully from the past, started to analyze Valr, but it was hard, even for him.

-З-здравствуйте...меня зовут...Valr...

-The hell did you just said?

Bucky never heard Valr talking in Russian so perfectly. She said those words without any accent, and he almost answered in the same language.

-Just one of thies things I can say in Russian.

-Well, it was perfect, but let me talk in Russian. Not because I love it, but 70 years experience from missions is still experience... Oh god, I already miss him...

-If you show feelings towards him, we might be caught. Steve still wanted for the underground, secret organizations in Russia. I know, you're gay for him and he's bi, but we need to play that we're a couple.

As the days passed by, Valr and Bucky grew closer to each other, talked about how they got captured/kidnapped and used to achieve bad goals. Not that fact they were so distant from each other, but they were the two person out of the Avengers... who were the quietest. As the day approached, they practiced a little dancing. You need know that the thing they search for, can be found in a Ball, wich held and organised secretly by Hydra. Extremely evil, right? But they had allies in the shadows and under the sun... When the day has arrived, you could cut the nervousness in the air with butterknife. Now, Valr understood why Bucky doesnt like to take a walk at daytime, unless he did it with Steve, his safe-place.
