Notes :

all links lead to the goodreads page of the book, mostly because i like to look at book cover art ;

list features authors/books that i love (T. Kingfisher, Silvia Moreno-Garcia, Ursula K. Le Guin, the collections from the British Library Tales of the Weird, etc.), but also a few that i don't like and some that i have not yet read ;

if upon seeing that list the first novel you check out is by Stephen King's you have not understood the assignment ;

not all of those are strictly horror stories, some are 100% science fiction (Brian W. Aldiss' Hothouse for instance).

Without Warning - Mafia!Joel Miller Scene 9

Mafia!Joel Miller x OFC

Rating: T (injuries, blood, sad Joel, etc.)

MDNI. 18+ Content.

Summary: Joel gets his baby girl back, a little worse for wear but alive and breathing...that's all he could ask for right now...

Masterlist

The address ended up being an abandoned laundromat on the east side of town. It was approaching 5AM by the time Joel pulled up in his truck, Tommy in the front passenger seat, Eric and Ethan in the back. All four men carried a minimum of two weapons and had bullet proof vests strapped to their chests.

Another truck was waiting a block away in case they needed backup. Joel wanted as few people in there with him as possible, looking to personally take out anyone involved in touching his girl. Silently, he got out and went to the bed of his truck, pulling out a sawed-off shotgun, already loaded and ready.

“Go ‘round back, I’ll check the front,” he said quietly, his senses sharp as he assessed the building for threats.

Tommy recognized the look on his brother’s face, it was the look of a lethal killer, cold-blooded and savage. He remembers that look a lot from when they were first starting out in the business, doing runs out of Joel’s old truck, getting into fights at bars and motorcycles clubs, shooting down anyone in their way. He wasn’t proud of the things they’d done back in the day, but it was survival of the fittest and both men knew they needed to survive.

“Don’t do anything stupid,” Joel muttered to Tommy, squeezing his shoulder lightly.

“You too, big brother,” Tommy said with a wicked smirk, ready to mow down anyone that stood between him and getting his favorite waitress back.

They entered the building simultaneously, hearing nothing from inside. Joel swiveled his head side to side, checking every corner and doorway with practiced stealth. He checked each room thoroughly, searching for any sign of Indi or David. Every room was empty, driving his anxiety higher the deeper he searched. What if she wasn’t even here? What if David was just trying to mess with his head? A low whistle caught his attention, Tommy’s whistle.

Moving fast, he came into a backroom, finding his brother already crouching down next to an unconscious Indi, withdrawing his fingers from the side of her neck. He gave a single nod, confirming she was still alive. Joel was next to her immediately, kneeling on the ground, his hands hovering over her body, like he was scared to touch her.

“She’s still breathin’, no sign of David or his guys,” Tommy said quietly, knowing that the ugly bruises and cuts along her arms and legs must have been painful for Joel to see.

Joel just kept staring, his heart breaking all over again at the sight of her, his hands trembling as he put them over hers. Her wrists were bound together with rope and she was curled up in a ball on the floor. Her clothes were dirty, specks of blood evident on her sleeves. There was a smear of blood at the edge of her mouth. He was fuming at the idea that David hit her. He wanted to burn him alive and then maybe tear him apart for ever touching her.

“Joel, come on man, we got to go,” Erin said, feeling nervous in the quiet, dark building, making a move to grab her, but Joel’s low growl stopped him.

“Don’t touch her,” he snarled, setting a hard glare on the other man.

He stepped back almost immediately, raising his hands. “Alright, alright,” he nodded, glancing nervously at Tommy and Ethan.

“We’ll get her fixed up, Joel, don’t worry, Henry’s already waitin’ at the house for us,” Tommy said slowly, gently putting his hand on his brother’s shoulder.

“Y-yeah…okay,” Joel nodded, finally moving into action.

Tommy took Joel’s gun off him and then he was lifting Indi into his arms. He thought getting to hold her again would bring some relief to his wounded heart, but seeing her so broken and lifeless made his stomach clench in anguish. She didn’t make any noise the entire time he carried her through the building, eyes shut, breathing shallow. He felt his chest tighten, the lump in his throat returning when she did eventually make a sound, a noise of pain after he accidently jostled her head against his chest while stepping over garbage.

“It’s okay, baby girl, I’m here now, you’re safe,” he murmured, not even caring that she most likely couldn’t hear him.

“I’ll drive, you just make sure she keeps breathing,” Tommy said once they were outside of the building.

He just nodded, climbing into the passenger seat as gingerly as possible, not wanting to shake her too much. She made a soft noise of distress once he settled her in his lap, trying to curl into herself again.

“Shh, it’s okay, darlin’, you’re safe now, I’ve got you…everything’s gonna be okay,” he tried to soothe her, running a shaking hand over her hair, noticing new marks each time they passed a street lamp.

“Anything feel broken?” Tommy asked, speeding down the backroads until he could get on the highway.

“N-no, I don’t think so,” Joel said, gently feeling along her legs and arms, stroking his thumb over her ribs and chest, feeling nothing prodding or sticking out at him.

“She’s gonna be fine, Joel,” Tommy said, trying to ease the tension in the car.

“Drive faster,” Joel demanded, not even looking at his brother, his trembling fingers stroking her cheek, his eyes scanning every inch of her face.

“I’m already goin-“

“Drive. Faster. Tommy.” Joel repeated through gritted teeth, his imposing voice leaving no room for argument.

They made it to the house in record time. Joel didn’t give a fuck about getting pulled over, his girl was hurting in his arms and he couldn’t do anything about it stuck in the truck. Eric and Ethan got the doors when Tommy came to a screeching halt in front of the house. Joel stormed into the house, calling for Henry.

“Hey, take it easy, Joel, set her on the couch,” Henry said, coming from the kitchen to find Joel in the living room.

“S-she wasn’t conscious when we found her, I don’t think anything’s broken,” he said, just now realizing how hard he was breathing, adrenaline thrumming through his body.

“Might be a minor concussion,” Henry said, “Looks like she’s got a pretty deep laceration on her left shoulder blade…” he continued, beginning to do a full assessment, voicing his findings as calmly as possible, having been briefed on the sensitivity of the situation before they arrived.

Joel watched helplessly, looking down at his arms to realize some of her blood was on his sleeves, probably from whatever cut was on her shoulder. He felt sick, his stomach knotting at the sight. He’s made people bleed a lot worse, gotten himself into situations where he was bleeding a lot worse, but something about it being specifically her blood had his heart pounding and ears ringing.

“Joel,” Henry said, pulling him from his oncoming panic attack, “I need her shirt off to stitch her back, how…how do you, um, want to, uh, do…” he trailed off awkwardly, holding the materials necessary for stitches.

Once he processed what the kid was asking, he stiffened, looking around and noticing just how many people were actually in the room. The other men seemed to realize the situation as well, lowering their gazes to the floor. He bristled at the idea of all his men seeing her so exposed.

“Everyone out. Now,” he commanded, his voice booming in the large room authoritatively.

Once the sound of shuffling feet faded, he turned back to Henry with a stiff nod. The younger man slowly cut her shirt down the back with a pair of scissors with Joel holding her up gently, cradling her in his lap when he sat on the couch, keeping her upright as Henry began to clean the wound and begin the stitches. He pulled down her bra strap, but left it on.

She whimpered softly, her body arching away from the needle after the first stroke. “J-Joel…” she murmured, gripping his shirt weakly in her fist, still unconscious as she pressed her forehead into the side of his neck.

“I’m right here, baby, I’m not goin’ anywhere,” he said softly into the crown of her head, “You’re okay…you’re okay, gotta stay still for me though,” he kept repeating, unsure of whether it was for her sake or his own.

He used his thumb to rub soft circles into her legs, trying to keep her still as Henry worked. She would hiss and twitch occasionally, but he just kept offering sweet words and gentle touches.

“Besides this,” Henry spoke, glancing curiously at Joel as he continued to work, noticing how the man’s whole demeanor was different from what he’d seen in the past, “Most of the damage is minor cuts and bruising.”

Joel hadn’t been this way with Ellie when Henry wrapped her broken ankle after falling off a horse. He hadn’t been this all over the place even when Tommy got shot. He looked like a wreck, hair a mess from running his hand through it, clothes wrinkled and dirty, his stubble unruly. Honestly, Henry felt bad seeing Joel so disheveled.Joel was a casual guy, but this was borderline homeless.

“How’d you meet?” He asked, half way through the stitches, keeping his eyes on the wound, trying to work as quickly as possible.

“…what?” Joel muttered, sounding completely out of it.

“Your girl,” Henry clarifies, nodding to her, “How’d you meet?”

“Uh,” he shook his head lightly, trying to collect his racing thoughts, “She, uh, works at the Bison, met her on her first day,” he said, smiling faintly at the memory.

“Oh yeah? Thought you didn’t like going to the bar?” Henry asked, trying to keep Joel talking, distracting him.

He scoffed. “I don't…unless she’s there,” he admits, brushing some hair from her face.

“Heard through the grapevine that you took her to meet Frank…and Bill too, I guess. Big moves, man,” he said, tying off the thread neatly.

Joel thought back to that day, which seemed like years away at this point as he looked down at her. He stroked her cheek gently, the simple gesture was enough to get her to stir again.

“Yeah…I think they liked her…” he said, voice faintly cracking at the end.

“Save the waterworks for when she wakes up, man,” Henry commented, sounding as lighthearted as possible.

He hadn’t even realized he started crying until a stray drop landed on her cheek, rolling down her jaw. Joel harshly wiped at his eyes, feeling exposed for allowing himself to cry in front of Henry. The kid just gave an understanding nod, checking her over one more time, cleaning and covering any major cuts.

“She’s going to be fine, some rest, lots of water, I’m sure she’ll wake up soon too,” Henry insisted, going back into medical mode smoothly.

“Thank you, really,” Joel said sincerely, his voice barely above a whisper.

“Wouldn’t even know how to do this if it weren’t for you,” he shrugged easily.

Joel sniffled, swallowing the lump in his throat, fixing his eyes on Henry, still a little red but no longer wet. He cleared his throat, rolling his shoulders back and straightening his back. Slowly, he stood, keeping Indi balanced in his arms, holding her close to his chest. Moving to take her into the bedroom adjacent to the living room, he paused in the arched doorway, turning to look at Henry who’d begun to clean up.

“You know if you tell anyone ‘bout what you just saw, I’ll have to kill you, right?” Joel threatened, only a hint of seriousness in his tone.

Henry scoffed with a shake of his head and a wide smile. “Yeah, I got you, boss,” he said with another laugh.

Joel smirked. “Take it easy, kid.”

He nudged the door to the guest bedroom open. Laying her on the bed before pulling the blanket off one of the arm chairs and spreading it over her. He considered changing her clothes, maybe even getting a washcloth from the en suite and wiping some of the dried blood and grime from her. Instead, he chose to leave her alone, unsure of how she might react to his unsolicited touch after waking up. He didn’t know where he stood with her and didn’t want to make things any worse than they already were between them.

Brushing the hair out of her face, he leaned over, pressing his dry lips to her forehead, inhaling slowly. Feeling her, seeing her, and breathing in her familiar scent, it all proved that she was real and that she was alive. At the moment, that’s all he could ask for, choosing to push away any thoughts of their relationship until a later time, just thankful she was okay and safe.

“You’re home now, baby, I’m gonna take care of this…”

MY VERY SPOILERY THOUGHTS ON THE LITTLE MERMAID

I’m going absolutely feral after seeing The Little Mermaid. My inner child has been FED, and I HAVE NO ONE TO TALK TO ABOUT IT YET so here I am to spew my thoughts. Spoilers below:

1. Halle was perfect. I will accept no criticism on this point. The only thing I cared about when this live-action movie was announced was that our new Ariel would have a voice to match Jodi Benson’s, and Halle did more than deliver. She epitomized the spirit of Ariel in every way. She was playful, she was inquisitive, she was joyful and bright and fun, she was so good at tugging the heartstrings (even without dialogue!!!) and appealing to our innate wanderlust and desire to discover and experience, and she was so so EARNEST in her portrayal I can’t even.

2. THE DEPTH THEY ADDED TO PRINCE ERIC’S CHARACTER OKAY!?!?! LIKE?!?!?! Okay, I will NOT GET OVER THIS. It was SO CLEVER of them to mirror Ariel’s journey with his desire to break free of his position’s restrictions. It worked incredibly well and did not once detract from our heroine’s spotlight. Rather, it ENHANCED their connection and sold me on their three-day love story in a deeper and more meaningful way than the original did (more on that below). ALSO ALSO ALSO SO COOL of them not to kill off his ADOPTIVE mother. ADOPTIVE. Marvelous choice! Truly. His mother’s fear of the sea gods offered a parallel to Triton’s fear of the surface world, and *CHEFS KISS*

3. Melissa McCarthy’s Pour Unfortunate Souls was a FUN TIME.

4. Awkwafina as Scuttle? Inspired.

5. MAX WAS ADORABLE AND THE STAR OF THE SHOW EVERY TIME HE WAS ON SCREEN. BEST BOY.

6. Wherever they filmed? The castle? Fucking gorgeous.

7. JODI BENSON CAMEOOOOOOO

8. Grimsby is the GOAT. Enough said.

9. NEW SONGS

I may get some hate for this, but I’m not the biggest fan of Lin-Manuel Miranda. Idk how to put this. He has an insane amount of talent, but for...untraditional musicals. I wouldn’t say he’d be my first choice to write new songs that fit the more traditional Broadway-like musical vibes that characterized so much of the Disney Renaissance.

That being said, The Scuttlebutt was the strongest of the bunch, I think. It was very much a Miranda song, and in most instances, I’d be a little irritated by how they included a song that has a style so different from the rest of the lyrical music we know and love from the original animated movie. But it worked here, likely because it was delivered by Awkwafina’s Scuttle and FIT the character.

Honorable mention to Wild Uncharted Waters, only because WOW Jonah Hauer-King went OFF on that performance. This boy said “I get one musical number and I’m going to KILL IT” and he did.

Also very much liked the Part of Your World (Reprise II)! It tied everything together really nicely.

10. THE OTHER NOTABLE CHANGES I NEED TO SCREAM ABOUT

I LOVE THAT ARIEL HESITATED BEFORE CHOOSING TO GO THROUGH WITH THE SPELL.

I LOVE THAT ARIEL WAS FORCED TO FORGET SHE NEEDED A KISS FROM ERIC. --> THIS. THIS IS FREAKING AMAZING. I can’t even express how much more I felt for Ariel and Eric’s love story. How much more real it felt. How much more believable and true. I don’t buy in to one-day (or few-day) love stories very easily, especially when physical intimacy/attraction is a driving force. My little aroace ass dug the fact that kissing Eric literally was the last thing on Ariel’s mind. She got to be herself, explore this new world, AND do it with someone who appreciated her curiosity and found joy in how much joy she was experiencing, who could have just as much fun as she could. God. Goals.

I LOVE THAT ERIC KNEW SOMETHING WASN’T RIGHT WITH VANESSA, EVEN IF HE COULDN’T PUT HIS FINGER ON IT. Very reminiscent of Prince of Song and Sea by Linsey Miller (a YA AU retelling told from Prince Eric’s POV. It’s a fun, easy read, if you’re curious).

I LOVE THAT ARIEL ACTIVELY TACKLED VANESSA AND BROKE THE SHELL NECKLACE HERSELF.

I LOVE THAT ARIEL WAS THE ONE TO STAB URSULA. I LOVE THAT SO MUCH. WE LOVE A BADASS HEROINE WHO DON’T NEED NO MAN TO SAVE HER.

All of these changes were important and mean a lot to me. I think it challenges a lot of the issues people have with the original animated movie, in that, here in the 2023 version, no one can argue that Ariel made her choices because she was lusting after a man. Or that she’s a damsel in distress. Very good stuff there.

11. My critiques

Some of the cinematography was weird. The transition between acting scenes and singing scenes didn’t always flow right. They felt abrupt and awkward. I definitely worried a bit about the CGI too, and it wasn’t too terrible imo.

And my biggest complaint: idk what it was about the ending, but it didn’t *quite* hit right. In the original animated movie, one of the last bits of dialogue comes from Triton, when he says, “...how much I’m going to miss her.” The finale of the animated movie is then a spectacle of swelling music and a heartfelt case of “show” rather than “tell.” The hug between Ariel and Triton on the wedding barge is perfect. The way in which the mer-people come to witness the wedding and send off Eric and Ariel is perfect.

The live-action ending felt...a little too somber. It became too much about Triton letting go and not enough about Ariel and Eric setting off on adventure together or about their worlds colliding in peace. I wouldn’t say that the last conversation between Triton and Ariel in the 2023 movie cheapens the line “...how much I’m going to miss her” and the bittersweetness with which he gifts her back her human legs, but it came close. I would have MUCH rather had a little more from Eric and Ariel than from Triton. LIKE HELLO??? WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT RING GRIMSBY KICKED AWAY!??? THERE WAS SOMETHING THEY COULD HAVE USED RIGHT THERE. Or better yet: if they wanted to do something super touching, they could have had Eric’s mother and Triton do a short aside by themselves, or perhaps even have a sort of moment where they acknowledge each other with respect/compassion/understanding before we all refocused on Ariel and Eric for the grand finale. But nah, they did what they did, and I’ll be a bit salty about it forever.

But anyway. Overall, I was very pleased. My disappointment with the lack of emotional impact from the ending does not supersede my enjoyment of everything else.

If you made it this far, please share your thoughts! I’m eager to talk to people, because all my friends aren’t like me and didn’t go see it opening night, lol.

#the little mermaid #the little mermaid 2023 #halle bailey #jonah hauer king #melissa mccarthy #just some thoughts I needed to get out #please talk to me about this i'm desperate #someone tell me what they think about the ending #i probably missed some thoughts but this is enough for tonight #little mermaid 2023 spoilers

6th gif: close up of sam, he looks at eric and tells him, "have a pancake."

7th gif: close up of eric, he is walking off screen towards the table. off screen scot is saying, "i used to make them for my mom that way."

8th, 9th, and 10th gif: a wide shot of everyone at the breakfast table. eric is taking a seat, while scot serves him pancakes. scot continues, "if you want, i can pour your syrup." eric tells him, "no thanks." he gestures with his hand when scot reaches for the syrup. "i'm good. i'm good." scot shrugs. all the while sam is watching them both. /end id]

any chance of an updated list?

Of course!!

Also, this is the NEW and FUCKING IMPROVED LIST, I alphabetized it so it’s even better than before >:3

Currently, we have 340 unique characters (if I counted right) and 487 total submissions. The top three most submitted fandoms are Homestuck, Danganronpa, and One Piece, excluding submissions that were spelt wrong or spelt differently. The top three submitted characters are Haiji Towa, Vriska Serket, and Stella Goeta (stella has so many submissions it’s funny)!

Finally, this is the raw, unedited list of characters submitted so far. Just because they are here doesn’t mean they’ll be in the tournament; it just means they’ve been submitted, regardless of media or what character they are!

as always, list under the cut!

This first list is for characters with two or more submissions. Characters who have three or more submissions will get first dibs in the tournament!

Getting to Know You

thank you @jomiddlemarch @iamskyereads @something-tofightfor @sp00kymulderr @thelightsandtheroses @frenchiereading @katareyoudrilling @gnpwdrnwhiskey for the tags!

Last Song: "Stoppin' the Love" - KT Tunstall

Favorite Color: blue

Currently Watching: second season of The Bear

Last Movie: Barbie

Currently Reading: Congratulations, The Best is Over! By R Eric Thomas (it's hilarious and delightful. with his Elle.com columns during the T***p years, this writer kept me laughing through dark times. Excited to see him on his book tour this fall).

Spicy/Sweet/Savory: all of them?

Relationship Status: married

Current Obsession: reclaiming my fashion sense? 3+ years of the pandemic where my industry didn't demand 'business casual' attire and being in the postpartum wilderness threw me off a bit. I want to be more mindful about my consumption (unfollowed a lot of instagram fashion accounts - I do love the Andrea Cheong one cause it's so thoughtful) as I rebuild my wardrobe. Or I guess I can continue to try and dress like Joel Miller 😂

Last Thing Googled: when was ICE created DHS (in light of this damning NPR piece. ICE and private prisons should be abolished. fuck the GOP, fuck W honestly - T***p was so horrid that W paled in comparison but that administration was fucking terrible too).

Currently Working On: a second draft of the current Joel x OFC I've been playing around with for months.

NO PRESSURE TAGS :) @tinytinymenace @tvversionperson @yourcoolauntie. @pedropascalito @julesonrecord @lunapascal @ladamedusoif @maggiemayhemnj @mille-preakers @a-forger-and-a-point-man @criticallyacclaimedstranger @avastrasposts @boliv-jenta @goodwithcheese @the-blind-assassin-12 and anyone else who wants to play and hasn't yet!

Without Warning - Mafia!Joel Miller Scene 5

Mafia!Joel Miller x OFC

Rating: T (violence, blood/injury) and a dash of fluff

Minors DNI. 18+ content!

Summary: Joel has to clean up the mess his rivals have created for him. His baby girl reveals something without meaning to, leaving him stunned.

Author's Note: Hi. So for those of you keeping up with this, I'd like to know what scenarios/"scenes" you might want to see? I originally only had a couple ideas and didn't expect to get this far, but I'd like to keep going 🥰🥰🥰

Masterlist

“Ah shit, what the hell, Tommy?” Joel groaned, rubbing his hand over his face as he watched one of the guys extract a bullet from his brother’s thigh.

He groaned as the piece of metal was extracted. “Fuckin’ Alphas, man, tried to raid our shit,” he grunted, sweat beading down his face as he tried to push himself up on his elbows to look at the wound.

“Uh uh, eyes on me,” Joel demanded, keeping Tommy’s attention, “What the hell were you doin’ at the warehouse?” he asked, softening his tone when his brother groaned as one of the guys started cleaning out the wound.

“I figured I’d go since I was close by, didn’t expect to- ah motherfucker!” he grunted when one of the guys put a little too much pressure on his wound while they tried to bandage it, “D-didn’t expect to find some damn rats trying to steal our shit,” he added, breathing hard and closing his eyes.

“Hey, hey, focus,” Joel said, coming closer to grip his brother’s shoulder, making sure Tommy kept his eyes open.

He didn’t know how much blood he’d lost already and he didn’t know the extent of his injuries. With the doctor still ten minutes out, Joel didn’t want to risk anything. His priority at the moment was to keep Tommy awake and talking.

“You got trigger happy, didn’t you?” Joel asked, the answer obvious by Tommy’s glare.

“F-fuck you,” he muttered without any malice, smiling weakly, “...should see the other guys,” he added with a cough.

“Betcha gave ‘em hell, little brother,” Joel said with a dry chuckle and a shake of his head, knowing his brother could hold his own, even if he did come home with a few good wounds.

Once the doctor came in, everyone seemed to relax a bit. Joel always appreciated Henry’s expeditiousness and scarcity of questions. The kid was good, going to make a damn good surgeon one day. It was times like this that Joel considered his covering of Henry’s school tuition as an investment into his own business.

He fixed up Tommy with a few stitches and a good dose of lidocaine for the pain. A couple of the guys helped him into one of the guest bedrooms on the first floor so he could clean up. Joel, finally able to focus on something other than Tommy not dying, turned to the remaining men in the gameroom. His eyes landed on Eric, who’d been quiet the rest of the time. He was about thirty, Joel believed, but looked like a kid about to get scolded by his parents at that moment, head ducked down, hands in his pocket, shoulders hunched in. Pathetic.

“So, who’s going to tell me what the fuck happened tonight?” he asked, his voice coming out as a low growl, yet unnervingly calm.

Ethan stepped forward.

“Good,” he nodded, slightly impressed with the other man’s accountability, only slightly though, “the rest of you clean this shit up. I don’t want to see a fucking speck of blood in this house! and take that pool table out of here too!” he snapped roughly, his voice echoing around the room.

He watched as the men immediately jumped into action, resetting the room and gathering the cleaning materials from the kitchen closet. Good.

Ethan was silent as he trailed behind Joel up the stairs. The other man could practically feel the carefully controlled anger radiating off of his superior. In that moment he was truly terrified for his life, having seen some of the things Joel could do, hearing about even worse things from before he came to work for the older man.

Joel’s fists were clenched tight at his sides, his teeth grinding in irritation about the absolute fucking mess of a night. Not only did Tommy get shot, he was going to have to move everything in that damn warehouse and secure the others in the area to make sure something similar doesn’t happen.

“Joel?”

He stopped immediately, the anger that clouded his mind lifting momentarily at the sound of her voice. Ethan nearly collided into his back with how suddenly he went still, barely avoiding Joel’s arm when his boss turned in the other direction.

She had just stepped out of the bedroom, looking so damn cute as she rubbed the sleep from her eyes, hair slightly mussed, her body drowning in his t-shirt, bare legs on display. Damn it, if he didn’t have this shit to deal with, Joel would be scooping her up and taking her back to his bed, happy to fuck her back to sleep.

“H-hey baby girl, did we wake you?” he asked, his voice shifting completely to the much softer, gentler Joel that she had come to know, body still taught with anger though.

Ethan stood beside him awkwardly, his gaze on the floor, too scared to even look in her general direction out of fear of what Joel might do. He was smart enough to put two and two together, having heard the whispers of Joel’s girl. The guys had also mentioned how he’d threatened Daniel for bumping into her and Ethan definitely didn’t want to make his situation any worse.

“What are you doing? It’s like four in the morning,” she asked, her voice soft and a little gravely from sleep, blearily glancing between the two men.

“Uh, y-yeah, I’m sorry, darlin’, had something with work come up,” Joel said, walking over to her and putting his arms on her shoulders.

She looked up at him, seeming like she might pass back out right there in his arms. Glancing over his shoulder back at Ethan, the original anger flashed through his eyes when he met the other man’s nervous glances.

“Wait in the office, I’ll be there in a minute,” he said gruffly to Ethan, his tone catching Indi’s attention even in her half-awake state.

He didn’t bother to wait for Ethan to start moving. When Joel turned back to her, he brought both hands up to her face, caressing her jaw as he leaned down for a gentle kiss. She reciprocated almost automatically, leaning into him, fisting the end of his shirt in an attempt to pull him closer.

“Go back to bed, baby girl, I’ll be in there soon,” he said softly, threading his fingers into her hair to grip the back of her neck and kiss her forehead.

“What was all that noise earlier?” she asked, “Sounded like you were yelling,” she added, stifling a yawn into his chest, nuzzling her face against his pec.

Damn it, she was making it so hard not to go back to bed with her. He sighed, bringing both arms around her, wrapping her in a tight hug, pressing his lips to the top of her head. She brought her arms around his waist, making a soft content noise as he enveloped her. Thankfully, her arms were around the middle of his back instead of lower this time, so she didn’t feel he had his gun on him.

“Just got a little angry, nothin’ to worry your pretty head about,” he muttered into the crown of her head, “go on now, get some sleep,” he insisted, forcing himself to let her go and turn her around.

“You promise you’re coming back to bed?” she asked, stopping in the doorway as he tried to gently nudge her back into the room, grabbing onto his arm.

He couldn’t help but smile at her small voice, so sweet. “Yes, baby girl, I promise,” he nodded, kissing her gently before giving her a final nudge.

Once she had climbed back into bed, he shut the door softly. Taking a deep breath, he closed his eyes and tried to get his thoughts together. Of all the nights for some shit to go down, it had to be the one when he finally brought her here.

He made his way back to his office, 9mm in hand. He didn’t intend to use it, but had it ready just in case. All he knew was that Ethan had better have his story straight by the time he gets there because at the moment Joel had little patience, a beautiful woman waiting in his bed, and his brother’s blood spilled in his home; it was no surprise he was just looking for something to kill.

After that night, Joel brought all his men together and set a new rule: business is limited to the basement and his office. Anything illegal, dangerous, or even slightly suspicious, they bring it in through the garage and down into the basement.

He’d taken her out to breakfast the following morning when she’d woken up, trying to subtly distract her and rush them out to his truck as they crossed the foyer, hoping she wouldn’t try to go into the kitchen or pass the gameroom. Plus, he didn’t know if Tommy was awake and wandering the house or not yet, the brothers had not been able to talk since Tommy passed out that previous night.

Resecuring his warehouses and moving supplies took up a lot of his time as well. He hadn’t been by the Bison in almost two weeks. His communication with Indi being limited to texts, calls, and the occasional video call before bed because he was so fucking tired by the time he got home, he couldn’t bring himself to drive over to her place even though he wanted nothing more than to wrap her in his arms.

At the same time, she was also busy with school. The end of the semester was approaching, meaning deadlines and exams. Knowing she was probably stressed, Joel made a point of sending her things when he couldn’t be there with her.

On the days she had class, he would have dinner delivered to her apartment, knowing she probably had “forgotten” to eat that day or would try to argue that those tiny granola bars she loves so much counts as a meal when they both know damn well that it wasn’t. When she had to go to work, he would have flowers sent over before she usually left so she would start off her shift with a smile. He’d even have one of his guys drop off a few pre-rolls at the Bison, usually leaving it with Lacy or Jared to give to her along with a note from him reminding her to relax and not overwork herself.

“Joel, you really, really didn’t have to,” she said, absolutely shocked while grinning as he watched her over FaceTime open the latest gift he’d sent her, a gold Tiffany & Co. bracelet.

“Gotta keep that pretty smile on you, baby girl,” he said, his voice gravelly with exhaustion even as he looked at her so adoringly with a stupid grin.

“You sound tired,” she commented, pausing her admiration of the bracelet to look at him through the phone, “when are you coming back?” she asked.

He noticed the slight quiver in her voice when she asked that question. God, what he wouldn’t do to get out of Laredo and back to her, but with everything that happened lately he wanted to personally see that the Alvarez meeting went smoothly, even though Tess had reassured him she had everything covered.

“Soon, darlin’, just a couple more days” he said, looking just as sad as she sounded, “you know I miss you like crazy, right?”

She sighed heavily. “I miss you too, so much…”

“You finish that paper?” he asked, changing the subject to keep the ball of sadness from growing any larger.

She smirked. “Yes, sir…Turned it in this morning, I am officially done with the semester,” she said with a little grin.

He groaned. “Fuck, baby girl, you can’t say shit like that when I can’t touch you,” he said huskily.

“Come home, then,” she said, trying to sound playful, but he could hear the plea in her voice.

“I want to, darlin’, you have no idea, but…I gotta take care of a couple more things here,” he said, shifting to lay down on the hotel bed.

She did the same in her own bed, turning off her bedroom light before crawling under her comforter. They talked a little longer, keeping the conversation casual, but the longing was always present, both having grown so attached to the other that almost three weeks without physical contact was driving them insane.

“Get some sleep, baby girl, I’ll call you tomorrow, okay?” he suggested, seeing how she struggled to keep her eyes open over the last five minutes.

“Promise?” she murmured, snuggling into her pillow.

“I promise, sweetheart,” he nodded, reaching over to turn the bedside lamp off.

“Goodnight, Joel,” she said softly, sweetly, just on the edge of sleep, eyes practically closed as her breathing slowed.

“Goodnight baby girl,” he said quietly, smirking as he watched her fall asleep.

As he was about to hang up, he heard her murmur something. Thinking she may still actually be awake, he waited a few seconds, but she said nothing.

“I’m gonna hang up now, darlin’, okay?” he said, almost whispering.

She muttered something again, this time he knew for sure she was talking in her sleep by the way her phone fell backwards onto the bed after she’d let it slip from her hand, leaving him looking at the darkness of her ceiling. He turned up his volume to the loudest, just to be sure she wasn’t having a nightmare or anything.

“Sleep well, baby girl,” he murmured, his thumb hovering over the button to end the call.

“I love you…” she said softly, her voice a little slurred, but still clear enough for him to hear her distinctly.

He froze, his mind suddenly completely awake after he’d processed her words. Staring at his phone, he waited, holding his breath for her to say something else. She didn’t, but he heard her moving a bit, probably turning over. She didn’t usually sleep on her left side, but that’s where her phone charger was for some reason. The words rang through his ears like a siren, his heart thumping sharply in his chest the more he replayed them.

I. Love. You.

She’d said it, even though she was asleep, she’d said it . A million emotions ran through him as he finally ended the call. He didn’t sleep much that night, tossing and turning, thoughts racing as he tried to understand his feelings. It was a strange mixture of panic, happiness, guilt, anger, joy, and other things he couldn’t even identify. He had a major weapons deal going down tomorrow as well and all he could think about was this gorgeous, intelligent, devilish little thing who’d come into his life without warning and stole his heart from right under him.

One of the biggest concerns he’d sat on after the call was whether she could love the parts of him she hadn’t seen yet. Even then, would he want her to?
