#I guess they really like his new park theme outfit

yesterday i finally watched the new tmnt movie!! at first i wanted to do a live reaction kinda thing, except that wouldn’t work because i'd have to reblog every entry and hiding every single part under a "read more" would be not only tedious, but i'm not even sure if it's possible lol
so instead have a collection of my thoughts here! (spoiler warning, duh)
first of all: the art style. there’s something strangely nostalgic about it. it feels like that is what my mental storyboards as a kid would have looked like, had i been into animating back then. or at least that would have been close to the style i would have liked to emulate.
the explosions looking like violent scribbles is just so 😩🤌♥ chef's kiss, truly. there's something about the art in general that just moves in such a particular way and holds a certain weight and volume,, it feels like cardboard and clay and crayons and the piles upon piles of coloured pencils i used to have as a kid and how the wooden pencil drawer smelled. i'm such a fan of this style i’M obsessed o(-<
in the intro shots for the turtles, raph licking his sai blades is so extra and i love him for that lmao
for some reason i completely forgot they cast jackie chan as splinter and tbh idk how to feel about it? no hate towards him; i just don't think voice acting is his strong suit
meanwhile i'm looooving mikey's voice. also leo's beacuse, well first of all, i am a leo girlie (gender neutral) through and through so i would have loved all aspects of him no matter what. but his voice actor is gumball's i believe? and that's one of my comfort shows 🥺 i just love him sm
this little donnie is sending me, i- 🤣
Tumblr media
superfly's theme reminds me of miguel's for some reason? 😂 and i'm here for it ahahh
the whole watermelon scene lmaoo teeangers being teenagers, finally
aaaand here comes the probably forced romance subplot 😅😅 (more on that later)
the whole fighting scene in the workshop tinted in red? ugh 10/10
ok so, april: i really like how they met. i like her design, her voice and her whole vibe. the whole puking jokes were a little too much for me; personally im not a fan of fart or puke jokes because, well, i’m not a 12yo boy (looking at you seth rogen) but all in all i really liked this rendition of april. it sucks tho that the turtles got a snazzy outfit by the end, both for school and for prom, but april’s clothes always remained the same. would have loved to see what she wore to prom!
the gen z lingo and references: …i mean, i guess it makes sense? i just don’t know how well it will age xD the references to end game and all were fun but, again, will someone in 15 years understand what they meant? will someone in 15 years know what rizz is?
changing the topic, the way eyeballs are rendered??? hello?? they’re so expressive and shiny and i lowkey wanna lick them ok
the chris pine cutout actually made me choke on my food from both surprise and laughter jhdfkjashdf
oookay so. superfly and his gang. first of all when the gecko talked i went like hey is that ant-man? lmao i love all the designs and ice cube as the villain works?? im not mad?? lol now, his plan however... sigh, my guy. killing all humans aside, have you maybe thought that if you turn every single animal and insect into a mutant, the whole ecosystem would all but collapse? there will be no planet left to belittle the humans on (:
"he'll run out of cars eventually" / *looks at parking* / “oh, c’mon!” lmaoo 😂 this joke was excellent
so, back to the forced romance thing. look i get it, they needed a reason to help out april to get the plot going. and if leo said it, then the rest would follow. i get that. but throughout the whole movie, aside from like his brothers elbowing his side knowingly, there’s no more allusion to anything? and then only at the veeeery end, he asks her out and she says yes, so i was like “oh okay so that’s the payoff then. took long enough” but then when they’re dancing she rhetorically asks if they’re just doing this as friends and 😐 maybe this is just my aroace self projecting but,, if you’re gonna use romance/romantic interest as a catalyst (lame tbh), at least be consequent about it?? if you (the writers) didn’t have the intention to explore the relationship, then leave it altogether? again, this is just my aroace opinion,, i can’t relate so i don’t understand. (which i know seems contradictory given my uh, repertoire of fics lmao) personally i would have preferred a different reason for them to helping out april, and having them all just be besties by the end, which they ended up being anyway
so, to sum it all up. it’s a story we’ve seen a hundred times, so there was really nothing new to it. the plot was okay,, the biggest thing that “bothered” me was superfly’s whole extermination thing making no sense, technically. but other than that, my eyes and ears were having an absolute feast. a very enjoyable film all in all. when we got rottmnt, i was like “oh finally an iteration of the teenage mutant ninja turtles where they’re actually teenagers” but scratch that. mutant mayhem is the most teenager one, and i loved them for that. time will tell how the jokes will age but yeah, the way they were depicted was definitely my favourite thing about the film aside from the art style.
have you guys seen it? what are your thoughts? lemme know :D feel free to comment here or send in some asks!

IM GOING TO DISNEY TODAY! YES!
In the spirit of going to Disney, what would a Disney trip for Stan, Magnum, Reader, and Hermit look like? The dads wanna take their kiddos out for a fun day at the parks!
Ooooo, let’s gooooooo!!
Let’s me see, let’s say they’re going to Disney World, what comedic and spontaneous adventure would this family get into?
- Hermit would wear his headphones to cancel out the outside noise, it’ll be overwhelming for him. Reader would hold his hand while they guide him around the park.
- Magnum would definitely be mistaken for a costumer if he wore his pirate outfit. A lot of kids shouting “Jack Sparrow!!”, adults trying to guess which character he would be, and even staff would shoo him off sight for breaks.
- Stan is 100% taking pictures of every moment. Getting inside? 📸 Buying accessories? 📸 Going on rides? 📸 Magnum and Reader beating up some guy who pushed Hermit to the floor? 📸
- Reader is the one who actually has the map and actually follows the schedule. Without them, the three will either get lost, bombarded by tourists, or have broken a ride, all resulted into them getting kicked out.
- Magnum loves the roller coaster like rides, gives him such a thrill. Stan loves the slow rides, gives him time to admire all of the work the Mouse worked on. Hermit loves Animal Kingdom, he loves looking at all kinds of animals there. I’d think Reader loves the whole theme park in general, each section is divided into different themes and it feels so amazing.
- The ferry bit rides are dangerous with Magnum on it. He would legit bring his sword and swing it around as he hands on the side of the boat. Stan is obviously swooning as Hermit cheers, with Reader shouting for him to not cause a scene.
- Costumers will sometimes break character when they see Magnum, Gaston definitely did Lmao. Hermit will follow Tarzan around thinking he’s like him. And Stan will hug every furry costumer, he really loves Stitch. Reader would be followed by every character, no one knows the reason, they just love Reader’s energy.
- I have a feeling Magnum broke a ride due to his size, and Hermit definitely got out of a ride once for no reason.
- Stan is too scared of the fast rides, and once he got onto one, he couldn’t stop screaming even after the ride was over.
- Reader loves the Tower of Terror, but the other three are terrified. It’s not even that scary, yet they will actually Reader away so they won’t get “traumatized” either. (The line was too long anyways)
- The whole family hates “It’s a Small World,”
- And at the end of the day, the fireworks would start. Hermit would wear his headphones for the whole show, and Stan would take every single photo of his family’s smiling faces.
- So Magnum would carry a sleeping Hermit and Reader back to the hotel they’re staying in, and both Stan and Magnum would hit the hay too, awaiting for a new day of fun.
- Also Hermit wrestled an alligator and won.

Whoops, it’s been a while, hasn’t it? I blame the covid. Totally wiped me out. It’s also been a busy few weeks at work, plus my kid got themselves a theme park pass, and half my free time is now spent driving to Thorpe Park. And, my sister has been to Greece about four times this year already ‘cause our mum’s been unwell, and that’s me on airport driving duty. Basically, too much real life, not enough simulated life. But! I’m ill again, which means I’ve finally managed to claw a few hours spare to post the Ramirez household. Say hi to Checo, everyone!
Tumblr media
Right, time to drug your army of children.
Tumblr media
Checo and Lisa: Actually, we would like to bang.
Tumblr media
And I would like you to train your quads. Lisa: Isn’t that what the nanny’s for?
Tumblr media
Huh, apparently so!
Tumblr media
But we can also add in a little parentification now that Tessa’s ageing up.
Tumblr media
Tessa: These hands were made for jazz.
Tumblr media
Yep, Tessa’s LTW is to become Lord of the Dance. We’ll see how that goes.
Tumblr media
Max also grew up! Nobody noticed.
Tumblr media
So yeah, this is Tessa’s life now. Tessa: It’s not quite the dance party I was expecting.
Tumblr media
Still, there are sweet moments along the way. Erica: Huggles? Alyson: Huggles!
Tumblr media
Terence: Huggles? Jacob: DOG FOOD ATTACK RARRRRGH.
Tumblr media
Terence: D:
Tumblr media
Tessa: Lock my door.
Tumblr media
Lisa: I AM NOT- Having a good time? Lisa: GET SOME NEW MATERIAL. Lisa: AND USE IT TO ENTERTAIN ME.
Tumblr media
All right, here’s something funny. Lisa: The... nanny? Keep watching.
Tumblr media
Nanny: I was so busy potty training the children, I forgot to potty train myself! Lisa: It’s mean, but OK, it’s a little funny. (That’s not all nanny piss btw, I’m just very bad at catching Max in the act.)
Tumblr media
Speaking of piss.
Tumblr media
Jacob: There there, good potty.
Tumblr media
Checo: He can pee in a pot, he’s my favourite now.
Tumblr media
Jacob: High chair. Checo: You’re so right!
Tumblr media
Lisa, alas, is not enjoying toddlers quite as much. Lisa: I’m too pretty for this.
Tumblr media
Erica: RELEASEEEEEE MEEEEEEE!
Tumblr media
Terence: Laid a fresh one for you, mom.
Tumblr media
Lisa: This is fine.
Tumblr media
Tessa: OK, you put your left leg in, your left leg out. In, out, in, out, and shake it all about.
Tumblr media
Terence: Sis, hey, sis, hey. Erica: Hush please, I am concentrating.
Tumblr media
Terence: That’s right, hand it over. Erica: Oh. I see how it is.
Tumblr media
Bath time for stinky boys.
Tumblr media
A problem for future Sushi.
Tumblr media
At last, the toddler stage is over! Tessa: Do you wanna go first or...? Checo: Oh yeah, sure, no problem.
Tumblr media
Checo: But first, let me ogle my wife. Tessa: Soon I will be at university and all of this will be behind me...
Tumblr media
First up, Erica! Erica: Yay!
Tumblr media
Then Alyson! Checo: Hooray for me! Alyson: Hooray for cake.
Tumblr media
Tessa ad Sharla: Happy birthday to the wall!
Tumblr media
Next up is Jacob, assuming I haven’t got the names mixed up.
Tumblr media
Kennedy: Toot toot.
Tumblr media
Jacob: Limbo!
Tumblr media
Lisa: Whew, right in the nick of time. Lisa: So long as we ignore the bit where time kept going looping for three hours so I could finish this.
Tumblr media
But yes, finally it’s Terence’s turn to grow up.
Tumblr media
Benjamin: I’m gonna punch him. Please don’t. Benjamin: Gonna punch him so hard.
Tumblr media
Celebrate good times, come on!
Tumblr media
Erica: Wait a minute...
Tumblr media
Erica: I hate that stupid bear outfit. Alyson: I think he’s hibernating!
Tumblr media
Jacob: Does he have to do it at the bottom of the stairs though?
Tumblr media
Erica lives at the piano now. Her OTH is Sports.
Tumblr media
Tessa: Something about emergencies, I guess.
Tumblr media
Lisa: Finally, I can start working on the damn car.
Tumblr media
Good Lord.
Tumblr media
Let’s have a little playtime interlude.
Tumblr media
Mailman: Bills. Erica: Do you accept lemonade? Mailman: Not in exchange for bills. Erica: How about in exchange for money? Mailman: Technically, that is also bills.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Fuck that librarian.
Tumblr media
Lisa: Whatever. I’m taking a nap.
Tumblr media
Um.
Tumblr media
Checo: Hot wife! Freezing cold wife, actually. Wanna do something about that? Checo: Nope!
Tumblr media
Why? He hasn’t done anything. Alyson: Yet.
Tumblr media
Tessa: Ahhh, dance time!
Tumblr media
Chess party.
Tumblr media
Gaming party.
Tumblr media
Just lots of cute family bonding moments.
Tumblr media
Checo: I’m too sexy for my shirt.
Tumblr media
Bath time for stinky boys. Which I know I said last time too, but I just really like this pet bath.
Tumblr media
Werewolf: Is she OK? No.
Tumblr media
Lisa: Zzzz... piss... Checo: On it.
Tumblr media
Yeah she might actually die.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Gilbert: Yeah good luck with that.
Tumblr media
Lisa: Ugh, what happened? You lost your job and passed out in the absolute worst place possible.
Tumblr media
Lisa: I’m freezing! Don’t worry, you’re about to warm yourself up.
Tumblr media
Lisa: Eek nooo!
Tumblr media
Wanda: HAHAHAHAHA! Lisa: This is because I laughed at the nanny, isn’t it? Yeah, that probably didn’t help.
Tumblr media
Anyway, over to Tessa. Tessa: Look, somebody else is pissing themselves! Buck:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Tessa: BAM! In the face!
Tumblr media
Decided to check out the furniture store and once again, it is borked. Cashier: It’s Kevin’s fault. Other cashier: Yeah, definitely Kevin.
Tumblr media
But you know what? I don’t know how to stop it from happening again, nobody’s got a business LTW anyway, so bye bye business!
Tumblr media
Checo: And now to spend the profits.
Tumblr media
Lisa: Mmm, that piss puddle really sets the mood. ...There is way too much piss in this update.
Tumblr media
If you two make more quads, I will genuinely kill you.
Tumblr media
Newspaper kid: Shake? Tessa: Salute.
Tumblr media
Tessa: Love love peace peace?
Tumblr media
Cute little family dance party. Terence: Except me. Except you.
Tumblr media
Jacob: I wanna join in! Go right ahead, sweetie.
Tumblr media
Alyson: Are you OK? Terence: Clearly not.
Tumblr media
Erica: You might be watching me, but who do you think is watching you? Please don’t, I’m too ill for dep thinking.
Tumblr media
Cute!
Tumblr media
Please don’t die. Lisa: Frostbite couldn’t do it, and electrocution ain’t gonna do it either.
Tumblr media
Weekend! I sent Tessa out to do some singing...
Tumblr media
...And then decided to start working on those dance contests for her LTW.
Tumblr media
Alas, her first attempt was a failure.
Tumblr media
Still, at least she doesn’t take it as badly as this poor townie. Townie: I JUST WANNA DANCE LIKE NO-ONE’S WATCHING! Everyone’s watching. Everyone.
Tumblr media
Erica: I’m dying. Alyson: You’re wearing a vest and shorts outside in winter, of course you’re dying.
Tumblr media
Alyson: But now, a message about recycling.
Tumblr media
Ah how sweet, doomed townie love.
Tumblr media
Tessa: Hey, don’t mind me, just gonna practise my moves.
Tumblr media
Wait a minute, that looks familiar...
Tumblr media
I mean, without the shotgun, but yeah!
Tumblr media
And the week ends with Alyson doing a little stargazing. Next up is a single sim household, so hopefully it won’t take me three months to write up. Hopefully!

Whoops my finger slipped here's the lore for the swap au (I like to call it the Date with Destiny au lmao):
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ONCE UPON A WONDER:
- Clown Tenma siblings but its Saki this time
- Kohane clown because in canon she's a fan of Phoenix Wonderland so I thought it would funny
- And the Mizurui duo 🤡 🤡
- Mizooks and Rui get permission from Emu and her family to use the stage
- And they become a super cool clown duo fulfilling Rui's middle school dreams
- They're like Percival and Jackson the Cost and Ho-Host 😍😍😍😍 (inside joke lmao)
- Kohane stumbles upon the stage while hanging out in the theme park
- Saki also finds out while hanging out at the park, bcs she wants to do lots of cool things now thats she's out of the hospital
- They literally all have one of those rotation schedules on the wall or smth on who has to test Rui's inventions next 💀
- But I know for a fact the first time they had to Saki volunteered first and she like nearly died or smth
- And then they found out she was recently in the hospital and they're like "WHY TF DIDN'T YOU TELL US" "AAAAA I NEARLY KILLED SAKI"
-And she's like "I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE FUN!!!"
-Its canon now I don't make the rules
- A lot of their shows center more fairytale-like themes of magic and hope and whatever bcs I love fairytales and their designs just turned out that way
- Princess Saki real I love her
- Tsukasa comes to all their shows bcs he's a good brother
- This is where he meets Rui it all works out in the end see
- Ruikasa nation is fed but only bcs I ship it more than I do Mizurui whoops 
- When Kohane first joins she's literally so nervous
- But hey she's the cool ringleader now also bcs I designed her outfit that way
- Also bcs I love Kohane
- Slay queen be confident keep all the clowns in check
- Ringleader Kohane real she keeps track of all the technical stuff and writes their plays like Tsukasa except less crazy <3
- Ans then Mizuki is literally like Rarity or smth all their cool costumes come from them
- Mizuki so talented
-Rui is still the cool director with all his cool robots
- Tobey from Wordgirl who? William Afton who?
- And then I hear Saki gets into composing and whatnot I think but even tho it might not be actually canon it is now
- Slay Saki music piano queen don't let the piano man get you
• • •
STARS LOST TO TIME:
- Discord gang woohoo
- Tsukasa emo Tenma sibling 😔
- Mafuyu is. Mafuyu.
- Shizuku sad arc
- An chills with them of course
- They've each got their own stories to relay when they're with each other
- Shizuku talks about anything and everything really, but sometimes tells them about when she was an idol
- Tsukasa goes on and on about theater bcs he's still a theater kid how could he not be
- An tells stories of these funky group of kids who come by the cafe every so often and seem to be great friends (guess who)
- And Mafuyu doesn't really like to talk at all
- Before their main story, they all think the sekai is theirs alone
- Tsukasa would gift plushies to the virtual singers
- Shizuku had books to bring
- An brought cool music for them to listen to
- And Mafuyu was the one who would visit the most, having many conversations with the virtual singers and just spending time with them in general
- When they saw what new gifts the others would bring they would be like "oh cool where'd you guys get that"
- "idk it probably manifested from ur feelings?"
- Miku and Luka don't snitch 🤪
- They would all visit often at their own times and somewhere never came across each other
- Until one of them sent the wrong music file on the server and they all clicked on it and ya yeeted themselves in
- They all collectively thought "OH NO THEY'RE IN MY SEKAI"
- "wait"
- It became the Spiderman pointing meme
- An: "bruh Hoshi guess who I met at the Cafe today
- "who"
- "ur childhood friend"
- tenma tsukasa takes about a few minutes to rember who. He has the worst memory ever bcs this is how it rolls around here.
- "OH WAIT U MEAN TOUYA-"
- ok so within lore of how they all got to here
- mafuyu is still mafuyu
- tsukasa is well.
- cmon u guys he's perfectly angsted up as is he just needs a little... shaping
- he takes a few moments to have a brain instead of going "HAAHA UN A STAR OF COURSE IM MENTALLY OK"
- horse man. ARE you ok?
- Shizuku is also perfect she's just her but sadder and on Discord here
- even if she's horrible with tech
- she always has the worst call quality of the four

[L&N] Entangled in the Veil of Night (Prologue)
Tumblr media
[ Date released: 30 April 2022 ]
An intoxicating breeze brushes the white gauze, and rays of light landing on the table turn tender and indolent.
The busy morning has finally come to an end. I do a stretch, hearing Bro Mao chattering on behind me.
Tumblr media
Bro Mao: Do you guys know about that? The event that recently came to Guangqi City!
Tumblr media
Li Man Man: Mm, you’re referring to that, aren’t you! I know about it!
MC: What kind of a riddle are you guys talking about...
Li Man Man: Haven’t you heard? The World Circus Troupe’s coming to Guangqi City!
MC: The World Circus Troupe? The largest circus troupe in the world?
While my eyes widen in surprise, Bro Mao immediately nods.
Bro Mao: This Friday, they will be hosting the first Circus Night of Revelry in Guangqi City. Aside from performances from the circus troupe, there will be many other activities. I heard that the host specially invited a number of famous local and international magicians and performers to the venue. It’s difficult to get tickets! I happened to get a few tickets from a friend of the host! Come come come, don’t be shy. Each person gets one ticket!
Li Man Man: Wow, it’s no wonder why you suddenly brought this up! Bro Mao, may you live to a ripe old age!
I take a ticket which has a smiling clown printed on it. Upon closer inspection, one of the terms draws my attention.
MC: “In order to give everyone an immersive experience, we hope for all visitors to select an outfit suitable for a circus ambience”?
A circus ambience... Several fashionable outfits surface in my mind. At the same time, I find myself thinking about a certain person.
MC: Charlie’s flamboyant fashion style is pretty suitable.
A smile secretly makes its way onto my lips. At this moment, my phone suddenly vibrates.
Tumblr media
MC: Charlie? I was just thinking about you when you called. That’s incredible...
Charlie (on the phone): My fiancée was also thinking about me? It looks like our hearts truly beat in unison.
Although his words are no different from the usual, his voice is slightly hoarse, harbouring a strong sense of fatigue.
MC: Are you okay? You sound really tired. Did you work throughout the night again?
Charlie (on the phone): Mm. I did three consecutive surgeries in the middle of the night, which is why I’m in desperate need to hear your voice to replenish some strength.
MC: We can talk about what you want to hear later. What you need most right now is rest. Are you able to drive in such a tired state? Should Uncle Ji pick you up?
Charlie (on the phone): Our thoughts have aligned once again. Don’t worry, Uncle Ji will be here soon.
Upon hearing this, my worry disappears. At this moment, a ticket with a clown printed on it reappears before me.
Bro Mao: Is that my idol? I happen to have another ticket. Hurry up and invite him to go with you.
Bro Mao says this while stuffing the ticket into my hand with a mischievous glance.
My line of sight lands on the ticket in my hand, and my heart stirs.
MC: Oh yes, there’s something I wanted to ask you. Are you free this Friday night?
Charlie (on the phone): Oh? Are you inviting me out for a date? Fiancée, you’ve been taking more initiative lately.
Charlie’s voice instantly sounds more energetic, and he ends his sentence with a cheerful lilt.
Charlie (on the phone): Go on. Do you want to visit the new themed amusement park in Los Angeles, or watch that theatre play you like in Florence? Or would you like to chase after the sunset with me in Ruiqini City? Whatever it is, I’ll keep you company.
MC: I said it was Friday night. There won’t be any sunsets...
I can’t help but grumble. Before he can make an even more exaggerated guess, I wave the ticket in my hand, and the paper releases a rustling sound.
MC: Bro Mao brought a few tickets to the Circus Night of Revelry, and I want to invite you to go with me.
Charlie (on the phone): Circue Night of Revelry?
MC: Mm, you’ve probably heard of the World Circus Troupe, haven’t you?
While reading the words on the ticket, I introduce it to Charlie.
MC: That’s about it. Oh yes, the host has a dress code requirement. Remember to change into an outfit which suits a circus ambience.
Charlie (on the phone): I don’t seem to have such flamboyant outfits at home. But don’t worry. I’ll make proper preparations for your sake.
I blink in confusion. Aren’t his usual outfits “flamboyant” enough?
MC: There’s no need for special preparations. Just pick an outfit from your wardrobe.
While saying this, I notice that Bro Mao seems to be talking about the dress code with Man Man too. After glancing at them, something occurs to me. Cupping the phone, I lower my volume.
MC: There’s something else I need to remind you about. My colleagues will be there too, so don’t prepare things like roses, couplets on scrolls, or hot air balloons.
Charlie (on the phone): Understood.
He mimics me, lowering his volume. It’s as though we’re exchanging a secret.
Charlie (on the phone): You’re finally planning to introduce me to your social circle. In that case, I’ll have to prepare meticulously to ensure that I stun everyone in an unconventional manner.
MC: That’s not what I meant... ahh, I’m rejecting the second part, not the first part.
Charlie: There’s no need for further explanation. I understand, fiancée.
MC: Do you really understand???
After hanging up, I still feel a vague sense of unease. Giving it some thought, I send a text to him, reminding him not to prepare anything overly grand.
Before I receive a response, Man Man peeks her head over from the side.
Li Man Man: MC, I heard from Bro Mao that Dr Zha will be coming too?
Bro Mao: That’s only natural. As long as MC invites him, Expert Zha will immediately accept.
As usual, Bro Mao compliments his idol. Upon hearing this, Man Man nods.
Li Man Man: That’s true... I’ve always thought that Dr Zha’s a really good catch! Unlike my boyfriend, who only uses straightforward romantic gestures to coax me after we get into a fight. Although I’m not making an unreasonable demand for him to grant my every request like what Dr Zha does, he should give in to me a little.
Just as I’m about to respond, my phone vibrates. Charlie has replied to my text.
Charlie’s Text: Understood. I’ll listen to my fiancée.
I release a sigh of relief. However, the words on my phone make me think of what Man Man just said. 
MC: Granting my every request...
I’ve never considered this in detail. But now that I think about it, Charlie does grant my every request, doesn’t he?
It seems that whenever I say something, he’d agree unconditionally.
Warmth surfaces in my heart, along with a faint sense of alarm.
Did he do those things he promised out of genuine willingness? Or did he force himself to do so in order to accommodate me?
MC: Probably not. That’s the perfect Charlie. How could he deliberately accommodate others?
I nod at the conclusion I reached, unaware that I used a “Zha Family Classic Phrase”.
-
In the blink of an eye, Friday arrives. When work ends, everyone fluctuating emotions finally turn into joyous anticipation.
After changing into the dress that I’d prepared, I stand on the first floor of the office building, waiting for Charlie to join us.
Charlie: Hi. Beautiful Miss, are you waiting for your fiancé?
Tumblr media
A familiar voice drifts to my ears. Lifting my head quickly, I see Charlie.
He’s wearing a silver grey suit with lines. His slightly open collar reveals a portion of his chest, and the crow-coloured feathers on his shoulder embellishes him with a sense of revelry. 
As he steps closer, I detect a faint scent of cologne on him, bringing with it a certain bewitching blend of wildness and elegance.
Charlie offers his hand to me in a welcoming gesture.
Charlie: Let’s go. We shall enjoy this night to our heart’s content.
Placing my hand on his, I can’t help but cough softly...
Tumblr media
...because Man Man is standing right next to me. Her gaze constantly shuttles back and forth from Charlie and I, with a gossip-hungry smile on her face.
MC: Erm. Man Man, would you head there with us?
Li Man Man: No need. The both of you can head there first. My boyfriend will also be picking me up soon!
She waves at us, then winks at me.
-
After we’re seated in the car, Charlie nods at me with approval.
Tumblr media
Charlie: Your friend’s pretty perceptive. She could tell what our relationship was at a glance. But I have to make a correction for her wrong use of “also”. She’s waiting for her “boyfriend” while I’m a “fiancé”.
MC: Pfft. So why didn’t you correct her earlier?
Tumblr media
Charlie: My fiancée gets embarrassed easily, so I gave it some thought and decided to leave it be.
MC: You’ve said it so many times before, so it’s fine.
Tumblr media
Charlie: In that case, should we make a detour so that I can introduce myself to her again in a more formal manner? Don't worry, I’ve made the preparations. As long as I make a call, 9999 roses will descend from the roof of Wanzhen.
Seeing that he’s about to turn the steering wheel, I quickly grab his arm.
MC: There’s no need for that. I’ll send her a text to correct her right now! We should hurry over to the Night of Revelry! Also, didn’t I tell you not to go overboard in your preparations...
While saying this, I whip out my phone to send the text. Only then do I realise that Man Man had sent me a text earlier.
Li Man Man’s Text: You’ve always talked about how flamboyant Dr Zha is, but I think he’s pretty okay today!
He almost did something even more flamboyant...
If I had not given him stern reminders prior to today, I’d probably become the main headlines of Bro Mao’s gossip.
I turn my head towards Charlie as he drives. He’s currently focused on the road. His fringe leaves a shadow on the tip of his nose, and he appears serious.
“Buzz buzz...” A call appears on the screen mounted on the car. After giving it a glance, he answers the call.
I hear a few words drifting from his earpiece: “hospital”, “patient”...
Charlie: Mm. I’ve shifted my slot, so you can contact Dr He.
Shifted his slot? I immediately understand what happened. My heart feels moved, along with a little bit of guilt.
After he hangs up, I can’t help but mutter softly.
MC: If I had known that you were on duty, I wouldn’t have dragged you along with me...
Charlie: Dates and work are both very important. It’s natural for a perfect person like me to make preparations for everything. I’ve handed things over to Old He at the hospital. There’s no need to worry. Tonight, I only belong to you.
Although I should feel happy about this, a small stone seems to have been thrown into the depths of my heart, the resultant ripples making me unable to feel at ease.
While watching Charlie as he drives, what Man Man said earlier once again surfaces in my ears... “granting my every request”.
I don’t wish for him to force himself into doing anything for my sake.
Charlie: We’re here.
Without realising it, the car has stopped in a parking lot outside the Night of Revelry.
Tumblr media
Charlie: What’s wrong, fiancée? Are you feeling unwell?
Charlie turns over, cradling my face with his warm palms while studying my face with concern.
Charlie: Want to rest for a while?
MC: I’m fine. My mind just wandered off for a while.
I shake my head, tossing aside those inexplicable emotions. Then, I look at the colourful world outside the car window.
Since Charlie had specially pushed his work aside to keep me company, we must have fun to our heart’s content!
MC: The entrance is over there. Let’s hurry in... King Crow?
Unable to restrain myself, I reach out to tug on a black feather on Charlie’s shoulder. Unexpectedly, it has a pretty nice texture.
Tumblr media
The corners of his lips lift upwards, accepting this term of address.
Charlie: Sure, my Red Queen.
Lowering my head to glance at my red dress, I suddenly feel like joking around with him.
MC: What?! The Red Queen is a villain in the story, isn’t she? So that’s how you view me.
Charlie: Of course not. In my story, you’ll always be the nicest person.
While saying this, he takes my hand in his. Leaning down, he plants a gentle kiss on the back of my hand.
Although the evening breeze is cooling, my cheeks feel a little warm.
MC: Okay, let’s go...
-
Charlie and I enter the venue. Several colourful tents create this world of revelry, and colourful flags and balloons drift around, filling the sky.
We pass by clowns and magicians who are peddling happiness. The entire world is an ocean of joy.
Where should we go first?
Tumblr media
Option 1: Visit the Bizarre Museum [Call out to him]
Option 2: Participate in the Music Party [Touch]
Option 3: Watch the circus performance [Heart Stirring]
Option 4: Watch the magic show [Heart Stirring]
Option 5: Do nothing

Of course, I couldn’t have them spend TOO much time in the sauna (dangerous, you know), so once everyone had some happy moodlets from the steam, Victor got sent to use the facilities while Alice and Smiler went outside --
To show off some new outfits! Yeah, I recently did a little restructuring of some of the gang’s clothing, including some new everyday outfits for Alice and Smiler. Alice’s shirt here is one of the unlocked tops you get by progressing through the Artist career -- I thought the paint-splattered tank-top looked good on her -- while Smiler’s shirt is from Saurus’s Rainbow Collection, a collection of clothes that includes a good number of pride-flag-themed items! (Thank you to @hellafluff for eir post about eir Sim version of eir Malkavian Brody for having a link to that!) Smiler’s naturally wearing the nonbinary flag shirt, which I think looks really good on them. :) Certainly doesn’t hurt that the nonbinary flag is also the colors of The Smiler coaster! :D
Anyway, while Victor was busy getting cleaned up (because I also always forget he has Scruberoo), Smiler and Alice headed over to the nearby little park area to do some exploring -- Smiler dug up a dirt pile that yielded a time capsule, which in turn yielded a Chaz McFreely MySim, while Alice dug up a fossil of a sea monster and chased some pigeons around. XD Really yielding to the werewolf instincts there! I was just sending the freshly-showered Victor out to join them --
When I saw the notice in the corner of the screen about the Finchwick Fair starting up! Now, I hadn’t been to one of those yet, so I decided to see what kind of fair it was and clicked the “more information” button.
OVERSIZED CROPS! That’s one Victor could actually participate in! So, after an EXTREMELY quick visit to Van Liddelton Groceries for Victor to get his biggest oversized crop (a giant watermelon) and for me to check if Copypasto works on the mod-added bulk-processed food from Simsco Canning (it does not, sadly), it was over to Finchwick to enter into the fair and start the second half of their adventures: Victor’s Quest To Win The Finchwick Fair! Victor dropped off his watermelon on the “oversized crops” side of the fair, then headed into the pub to use the free kitchen there to make a fruit pie for the “pie” side -- though he insisted on mixing up his pie dough on the counter directly behind the bar. O.o I mean, I guess if you want to stay close to your partners. . . Alice and Smiler, naturally, hit the bar itself for some drinks -- though I learned pretty rapidly that having them order their “favorite drinks” is not a good idea. To whit, Smiler ordered a Wrench, when the only drink I KNOW they can have safely is the Plasma Jane (because, you know, VAMPIRE), and Alice ordered a Minty Fresh PET drink. Which I made her drink because I wasn’t ENTIRELY sure what the drink’s deal was, only for her to get an uncomfortable moodlet. Maybe she got it because she’s a werewolf? Either way, not great choices, you two! Honestly, you should just be able to ASSIGN your Sim’s favorite drink. . .
Oh, and yes, you may notice we have a visitor from another game here. XD Specifically, one of the NPCs Isis Payton decided to wear one of the variants of the vault suit I downloaded from @plazasims a while back -- looks like she’s from Vault 81, nice. XD Hope you’re enjoying life above ground! XD

Kenta’s weekend away - day 3
Tumblr media
That morning, Kenta woke up very homesick. He didn’t think it’d hurt him that bad, but he is really missing his family... So he decides to go for a walk around and have a moment in nature, all by himself.
He ends up bumping into Miki, next to the waterfall, and without exchanging many words, they both understand that the other’s not having a great time. Kenta gestures to the stars, as an invitation, and they both lie down to look at the sky as the sun rises. Peaceful, quiet, shared contemplation.
Tumblr media
When they get back to the BnB, they start getting ready for the day out at the park that was planned for that day. Everyone’s buzzing with excitement, tonight they’re going to go bowling and clubbing, since Nanami learned from the new friend she made yesterday that one of the bars in the town allowed teens in after dark.
Tumblr media
The day is spent enjoying the nice weather and acting like when they were kids, as always, doing their favorite activity when they’re all together : throwing waterballons at each other.
Tumblr media
And the excitement for the night out is through the roof. “What are you gonne wear Nami ?” asks Miki. “Well I heard it was 80s night tonight, so I guess we’ll have to find ourselves some retro looking outfits !” “But we didn’t take that much clothes with us on this trip, I don’t know how far we can take this theme...” “We’ll rock it, don’t worry love !” answers Nanami, super confident, as always.
Tumblr media
As night falls, they get back to the house, and Kenta isn’t really feeling the vibe, he’s not sure he wants to spend too much time prepping for tonight, so instead, he takes a moment to look at the sky through the best tool ever. A non-oversized object, for once.
Tumblr media
And this second momnet of peace of the day really allows him to put some things in perspective. The situation he’s in makes everyone uncomfortable. He was trying to let it happen thinking at least it would make Masami happy, but she’s not blind, she can feel something’s wrong. This isn’t right for anyone...
Before he knows it, the others are ready and everyone is heading to the club. “Alright, let’s enjoy the night, not make this a bad memory for anyone, and tomorrow morning, I’ll speak to Sami.”
Tumblr media
Taku and Kenta team up, and in the end, it’s only them left at the bowling alley, everyone else’s left for the bar. But they take this very much as a victory !
Tumblr media
When the two boys come to join the others, Kenta bumps into Miki and decides to thank her for being very nice that morning and not mocking him when he explained that he was feeling a bit homesick... Thanks that quickly turn into a hug, because the atmosphere is just so convivial, he can’t help himself.
Tumblr media
It is an innocent hug, a thank you, a friendly accolade. But someone else could see it a bit differently...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“You know I would never make fun of you, especially for something like that !” says Miki with a nice smile. But before Kenta can answer, Gabe comes over while dancing and hypes everyone up for a group demonstration of the choreography they used to always do when they were kids.
Tumblr media
Everyone ends up on the dancefloor and crisis is avoided ! “Hey, great idea dude, we did awesome, all had perfect rythm, just like when we were 11 !” laughs Kenta.
Tumblr media
Gabe doesn’t say anything about what he thought would have happened if he didn’t pull everyone to the dancefloor before Masami reached Kenta and Miki. But he hopes they can settle all of this soon enough.
Tumblr media
After a while, everyone gets back to the bar area, and while Masami seems happier now that Miki and Kenta keep a reasonable distance between them, Nanami comes up to the bartender and hears the conversation of the two men next to her... Turns out they’re the owners of the BnB ! And they could out them to their parents about the underage drinking if they recognized them !!!
Everyone packs up and the night finishes there and then. But not for everyone, as on the way back, Masami starts to slow down and calls Kenta to the back of the group.
Tumblr media
He has a feeling this isn’t going to be a pleasant conversation, but he slows down so she can reach him.
Tumblr media
“What’s going on Kenta ? I thought we’d been over this. I can’t spend my life in fear that you’ll be hanging around with other girls. Especially Miki. - Well... What am I supposed to do Sami ? Not aknowledge her, act like she’s not one of my best friends ?”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“I don’t know, maybe not making me feel like I’m crazy would be a great start... After all, it’s not like you’re trying your best to keep it platonic, right ? Giving out hugs in a bar, only looking at her when she’s in the same room, never talking about me or us when she’s around ? - I’ve never done any of these things on purpose, you know that... - I don’t car if you’re doing it on purpose or not Kenta, the fact is, you ARE.”
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
“I know you’re probably right, the thing is... I can’t help it. See the thing is, you’re the best, I enjoy doing things with you, but I just don’t... - Don’t say it Kenta, don’t break my heart...”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“It’s not you, honestly Sami... - Seriously, that’s what you’re choosing to say to me right now ? Obviously, it’s me, since you’re able to fall in love, simply it has to be with someone else ! - You’re totally a catch, I swear ! Actually, I probably should tell you this, but it might help : Gabe has like the biggest crush on you.”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“I don’t give a damn Kenta ! God you’re really bad at communicating, aren’t you ?! I just can’t believe you’re trying to pawn me off now ! - It’s not like that, I just... I’m sorry, I simply don’t think we should have gotten together in the first place to be honest with you, and I don’t know why we did... I’d rather we had just stayed friends...”
Tumblr media
“I... Fine, let’s just forget we were ever in a relationship to begin with, if that’s what you want.”
Tumblr media
Masami’s heart was broken, but at last, Kenta had been true to himself, and to her. And in the end, that’s really the best he could do.

[♥] collegeau! to date or not to date {rengoku kyoujurou x reader}
Genre: Comedy, Slight Fluff, Slight Sensual Themes
Categories: F/M
Relationships: Renguko Kyoujorou/Reader
Word count: 2,791
a/n: continuation of unintentionally roomates which you can find here ,,requests are open
Tumblr media
➽────────────── ────────────── ──────────── ❥ 
It had been some weeks since she had gotten used to Kyoujurou being her roommate. So far neither of them had walked in on each other naked--yet. He was pretty tidy and would call her out in a teasingly kind of way that she'd sleep with her mouth wide open which made her pretty insecure, but he insisted it was "very cute." Which didn't make it any better. He could concur that it probably wasn't a good idea to show her the picture he had taken of her (he actually would look at it when he was having a bad day or he just wanted a good laugh; he also nearly made it his homescreen but decided that was maybe a little too far).
Mid-terms would be coming up soon and Kyoujurou wanted to do something fun before all the stress would settle in from piles of homework assignments and study guides. He suggested that the both of them should go to the amusement park and [name] was more than delighted to go, but there was a small issue with this. She didn't know if it was a date or just them simply hanging out. He just brought it up so casually when they had just finished a round of Super Smash Bros. and [name] was trying her hardest not to be a flustered mess about it.
"Just ask him." Shinobu's usual singsong voice was now monotonous. She had had enough of [name]'s shit to say the least. Always inquiring about Kyoujurou since Shinobu and him had been in the same graduating high school class and friend group. Not to mention mid terms were coming up and pre-med was no joke.
[Name] visibly sulked at her friend's tone. She didn't like being a nuisance to Shinobu, even though it wasn't hard to irate her nerves, but this time she seriously needed help and Shinobu was being nothing less than unpleasant.
"Shinobuuuu," [Name] whined. "This is a big deal for me. Please give me advice and I won't bring it up ever again."
The ravenette's eyes darted to the [h/c] pleading gaze, and it was enough to make to [name] squeak. Shinobu let out a sigh before speaking.
"Fine," [name]'s expression brightened, but Shinobu's finger pressing into her forehead made it falter a little. "but you don't need to stop talking about him. Just do it a lot less. I need to focus on exams."
[Name] cheered in triumph and fist pumped into the air, which in turn made Shinobu laugh. She wanted to be there for [name] in anyway she could, just within some restrictions and limitations. Shinobu's face suddenly went gravely serious.
"So here's the game plan."
.❀。• *₊°。 ❀°
[Name] took a deep breath before looking at her reflection. Her outfit was subtle yet cute. A simple blue top and beige skort to prevent panty reveals yet still have the illusion of wearing a skirt. Hair was pinned and pulled back abover her neckline since the sun would be beating down and she wanted to take every precaution to avoid any excessive sweating. Make up was light to circumvent it from melting off her face. Yes, [name] was over meticulous because she was resolute in this hang out/date to be absolutely perfect. And if Kyoujurou had decided to reject her than at least she'd look hot getting her heartbroken.
He had already left over an hour ago since he had to tutor a student in history at the tutoring center. A work study job that he picked up to help cover his tuition and endlessly spoke about when he got back to his dorm when you two were winding down from your day.
[Name] spritzed her best perfume to all her pulse points to extend the life of her scent as it hit her body. She threw it in her bag along with her make up just in case she needed to freshen up. One last look in the mirror and she was finally off to her date, er, hang-out thingy.
The autumn air was irregularly warm and humid. Well, not irregular for Okinawa at least. It was a sub tropical climate which meant mild winters and the moist summers were what [name] favored most about it here.
As she walked out of the dormitory and into the student parking lot, she was nearly blinded by the blond tresses sitting on the bench. Like quite, literally blinded. The sun was bouncing off his fiery hair more than usual and it was causing [name] to squint at him when she approached him. For some reason (she had an exact reason being that she looked super hot), [name] felt bold, and advanced toward Kyoujurou with hands concealing his vision. He visibly tensed and she couldn't help but feel a smile tug at her lips.
"Guess who."
His body now relaxing at the sound of her voice and she felt the apples of cheeks rise into a grin against the palm of her hands. "[name], you're finally here!"
She released her hands as he got up to face her and his jaw went a little aslack as he oggled at her profile. [Name] was stunning, indeed. His adam's apple bobbed up and down as he dryily swallowed. His hair that was now pulled back in a high ponytail let his bangs frame his face beautifully, swayed in the small gust momentarily. She could've sworn that he was blushing at her, but then again it was quite hot...
"You look--um, quite sharp!" He stammered. Kyoujurou mentally socked himself in the face. Sharp? That was the best he could come up with?
[Name]'s expression was now in a state of bemusement before she laughed melodically. To him it was a beautiful melody that he always tried to sway out of her with corny jokes and memes. "Well, thank you Kyoujurou. You look quite sharp, too!"
[Name] wanted to die. She looked sharp? Sharp?! No, she looked Hot! With a capital freaking "H".
Nonetheless, [name] shook it off. She was determined to make this flawless even if it was off to a rocky start. Thankfully the ride to the amusement car was starting to make up for it. The both of them jammed to the playlist they had put together earlier and discussed which rides they were excited about most.
"$50?!"
"You really don't read things thoroughly do you, [name]."
[Name] ignored his attempt at poking fun at her. It was always like this whenever she freakishly exclaimed about information that was news to her, but had been there for well however long the inital post had been there for and Kyoujurou had always made it a point to call her out for it.
"Well, I can't make you pay for it." She deadpanned. And she absolutely meant it. Kind of. Not really. It would mean that it would technically be a date, right? Right? A guy paying always meant that it was a date. [Name] mentally nodded at herself reassuring herself.
"Well, that's too bad." He inserted his card into the chip reader and thanked the attendant while grabbing his receipt.
[Name] bit back a smile as they walked side by side into the park. "Well, I'm going to pay you back."
He looked at her with an uncharacterstically sultry gaze. "No, you are not."
His voice demanding, dropped an octave and it sent a shiver up her spine. [Name] would be lying to herself if she said that it didn't make the her stomach knot up. Kyoujurou pulled out his phone pointed it towards her, trying to get a good angle and lighting.
"Now, give me a smile!" He beamed in his usual cheery tone. [Name] smiled posing her usual peace sign as he clicked away at his phone. Had she just imagined that?
The day seemed to slip past them as they took pictures with their phones and disposal camera they bought at the one of the stands for a whooping $25. Which was a total rip off, but then again bottled water was $5. The pair were laughing as they looked through the pictures they had taken throughout their trip.
"Oh, no. You are not keeping this one." She reached over to tap the trash can on his phone screen to get rid of the terrible photo that was her inhaling funnel cake. But before she could, Kyoujurou moved his screen away from her as he chuckled at [name] getting flustered. There was no way he'd let her get away with such a cute picture.
"I am definitely going to be framing this as soon as we get back." And that made [name]'s face inflame in embarrassment and shock. She was definitely, not going to let him do that.
"You delete that, right. Now!" She tried her best to extend her arms in every which way Kyoujurou was flexing his arms out but to avail. [Name] knew she wasn't going to get her hands on his phone, but she kept leaning over in an attempt to get an advantage on his long arms. That was until she clambered into his lap, face first into his crotch.
Kyoujurou froze and his breath hitched as he lowered his arm down and let unholy thoughts pass through his head but he quickly shook them off. "A-are you alright, [name]?"
Nope, now [name] was definitely going to die. She slowly rose out of his lap and plopped back into her seat, trying her best not to make the situation even more awkward. She shot him a smile in a strive to shake off the graceless action of diving face first into the crotch of her crush.
"I'm all good." She took a deep breath before looking up at the darkening sky. Kyoujurou couldn't tell what she was thinking, but it looked almost as if she was unfazed which he was very thankful for.
"Let's go on the ferris wheel before we leave!" That snapped him out of his thoughts. A grin now making its way back onto his face and a sound of approval emitted from his lips. "Let's do it!"
.❀。• *₊°。 ❀°
[Name] snickered to herself as they entered the ferris wheel seating after letting several people ahead of them. It was all going according to plan, well, not the face planting into Kyoujurou’s lap. That was definitely not in the plan she and Shinobu had concocted.
“So, here the game plan.” Shinobu stated matter-o-factly. Her name were in a crouched position as if in a very important football team meeting. “You’re gonna look hot. Like I’m talking Jennifer’s Body hot. And then—“
”But i don’t have clothes like that.”
“Shut up. We’ll go shopping. And your make up has got to be perfect like I’m talking no melting off your face looking like the Corpse Bride. Oh, and you’re drowning yourself in sexy perfume every thirty minutes.”
”But I—“
”Speak out of line one more time and I’ll kick your ass.”
“Fine.”
“Back to what I was saying. You’re gonna take loads of pics start it off friendly and lighthearted and then bam! You get him on that ferris wheel and get your flirt on. End the night off with a kiss at the top of the ferris wheel.”
Shinobu was extremely gifted in giving pep talks and revving them up. Which was probably why she was captain of the cheer team at their university.
[Name] felt like she was a crazy high. She could practically run four miles nonstop with the attitude she had in that moment.
Shinobu and her high fived, one leg kicked up in to the air with the most triumphant looks on their faces. “We got this!”
She shook her head as if to shake away the thought.
”You, ok?”
She smiled at the slightly dampened Kyoujorou who’s cheek were tinted pink from the heat. Beads of sweat has slid down his temples, but that only seemed to add to his sex appeal.
”More than ok. I love ferris wheels. They’re so romantic.”
Those words left her lips and turned in a smile that was as sweet as candy. Kyoujurou’s heart leapt in his chest as he eyed her intently.
”You could say that.”
He done fucked up again. Kyoujurou wanted to kick his own ass at this point. Why was he so terrible at flirting? It made him look like he didn’t pick up any social cues at all. Which wasn’t entirely untrue. There were many times where Tengen would point out that a girl was being extremely flirtatious with him but it would simply go over his head. He would usually reject the notion claiming they were just being nice which in turn would lead to Tengen face palming. And he thought he was doing such a good job at the start.
The silence was deafening as they reached the top of the ride and it suddenly came to a jerking stop. The view was wondrous. The sun kissed at their faces and grazed the tops of trees and the peaks of roller coaster rides. Brightly colored lights flashed simultaneously down below, but [Name]’s  stomach felt like it was caving in the longer she stared. Very romantic, indeed.
Her face must’ve looked a little green because Kyoujurou’s expression turned into a worried one. “You sure you’re okay, [name]? Have some water.”
She grabbed the bottle he handed to her and instead of water falling like she usually did, she pressed her lips against the same place his had been. Kyoujurou’s eyes widened in surprise as she absentmindedly guzzled his drink down and gave it back to him. His hands turning into fists as he flexed as hard he could to keep the warmth that was rising away from that region.
“Thanks.” She gasped. [Name] wiped her mouth with the back of her hand as she leaned back against the seat. So much for her game plan. She sighed to herself as she collected her thoughts. What difference would it make if she just told him right now.
”Kyoujurou.” The name left her lips so effortlessly. He loved the way she said his name. He would think about it mostly in the shower, but more innocently before he went to sleep.
He raised his eyebrows fully attentive now. She turned to face him as she leaned forward. A different look on her face. Soft and flustered. “I like you, a lot.”
His body stiffened for a moment and a cool breeze swooped past their longing gazes. The sudden realization had dawned upon him that those words weren’t just make believe. She had really uttered them into existence. He hadn’t noticed how close her lips were to his until he felt her minty breath fan against his nose. He didn’t pull away.
[Name] closed the distance between their lips and Kyoujurou instinctively leaned in more as soon as they made contact. His hand cupped her cheek to deepen the kiss and she sighed in delight. A smile now etched on her face had now infected him and he pulled away to look at her. He caressed her cheek as she giggled and he gazed her puzzled.
”Did I do something wrong?” If he kissed her wrong he definitely wanted to know. One thing about Kyoujurou was that he was always open to constructive criticism. She shook her head. The content look on her face still evident.
”Not at all.” She leaned in once more. “I just didn’t expect you to be so frigid.”
She giggled again at his surprised, yet embarrassed mien. However, [name] stopped giggling when she saw the determined look on his face.
”Well, I can do better.” He suddenly captured her lips and she instantly melted at his hot touch. His hand loosely on her waist and she moaned a bit as their kisses turn into feverish open mouthed ones. His lips detached from hers as he felt the the ride coming back down. [Name] felt like her whole body was in flames and there Kyoujurou was sitting there as cool as a cucumber.
The ride shifted the shuttle as the two got up and his hands slipped in hers as he lead them out. She couldn’t believe  the stunt he just pulled. Her fingers on her lips still feeling the ghost of his. He laughed heartily at her reddened face and that captured her attention.
”Don’t worry. We can continue that when we get back.”
[Name] was speechless, but somehow was even more flushed than before. Kyoujurou chuckled at her again as he pulled her in for a side hug as they headed back to his car. The smug look never left his face.

Reunited Again
Tumblr media
Summary: He was your neighbour, your best friend, he was your happiness ever since preschool. One day, he suddenly became distant and cold towards you for unknown reasons. Both of you slowly drifted apart. Years passed and you haven't seen him ever since you left your hometown to go to college. Who knew you'd see him again through your close friends from college 4 years after you moved. Would he remember you?
Theme: college au, childhood best friends to lovers
Genre: fluff
Warning: some curse words, that's it
WC: 3.9k
Pairing: Jung Wooyoung x Fem!Reader
a/n: Hello again! Here's a Wooyoung fic for you. Take care everyone :)
Tumblr media
12 years ago was when his parents divorced after a horrible fight. His father took him in custody as he was only 10 years old at the time. After the divorce, his father turned into an alcoholic, a drug addict and was abusing him after dusk. He became his dad’s punching bag, this only made the boy even more stubborn and rebellious.
This also led him to the introduction of tattoos, gang fights, smoking, drinking, but never drugs. That was probably the one thing he despised and would never even go near one. That was the thing that drove him to insanity living in the house.
His dad was a drug addict and because of those drugs, he couldn’t grow up with the love of his own dad.
However, despite being in that state, only a few of them still stuck around him. And these guys were not even those who teaches him all the bad stuff while growing up. Instead, these guys were the friends he met since high school and college. Sure he didn’t have a bright past, sure he’s done things that were probably illegal and had a few police cases before, but these guys never looked down on him.
They encouraged him to work hard and chase after his dreams, and not to walk down the same path his dad did. And for that, he was thankful to have met them.
Tumblr media
It has been 4 years since you last saw him. He was your neighbour and probably one of your best friends growing up. He lived just across the road from you. You still remembered when you first met him at preschool. Where he accidentally spilled his milk and so you went up to him and gave him yours.
From that day on, you two became like two peas in a pod. You loved him as a friend. You cared for him. You could never bear to see him cry over a stolen toy. You were always there for him. So when he suddenly turned cold and distant to you one day, you just couldn't accept it.
You wanted answers.
And not long after, you found out that his parents had divorced. His father became abusive and a drug addict so that’s why he kept his distance from you.
Because of that, you never blamed him for acting how he did back then. But that doesn’t mean you don’t miss the old him. Even now that it has been 4 years since you left your hometown to live in Seoul to go to college, you still prayed that some day, you’d bump into him again and everything would go back to the way it was.
Tumblr media
It was a bright Saturday afternoon and you had promised your two best friends that you would meet them for brunch and just hang out with them. You decided to wear a white low cut cropped thin strap top, a black floral skater skirt and a beige knit cardigan. To finish the outfit off, you paired it with your black combat boots.
You met up with Seonghwa and Yeosang at the mall for brunch where they took you to an italian restaurant. After eating, Yeosang told you that he and Seonghwa wanted to introduce you to their close friends and that it was time for you to meet them.
“Are you sure about this? What if they don’t like me?” You asked, a little too self-conscious.
“They’ll love you! Besides, if anything, I’ll just threaten them to leave you alone.” Yeosang said with a shrug. You couldn’t help but scoff at his sarcasm. A few hours later, Seonghwa drove you to a well known street in Hongdae.
You sat in the front passenger seat as your eyes travelled all over the place.
Once Seonghwa was done parking the car, the three of you got out of the vehicle as he locked it. Yeosang immediately placed a hand on your back to guide you towards a tattoo parlour shop located just across the road from where you were. The bell chime caught everyone’s attention in the shop as the two boys standing behind the counter whipped their heads towards the door.
Their smiles immediately got wider when they saw Seonghwa and Yeosang. “Oh hey guys! You’re here!” The cute, smaller one said, only for the tall, handsome one to speak up.
“It’s about time you guys came. You’re late for your piercing appointment with me.” Yeosang laughed knowing the boy was directing his conversation to him.
“I know, I know. But the main reason we came here was to let you meet our friend we’ve been telling you guys about.” Yeosang said as he turned back to you, who was hiding behind Seonghwa.
Yeosang chuckled at your shy being, only to slide his hand around your waist and tugged you forwards gently. “Hyung, Yunho, this is Y/N. Y/N, this is Hongjoong and Yunho.” Your eyes flickered to the two boys who smiled at you and waved.
“Hello! It’s nice to finally meet you.” Hongjoong said as he held his hand out for you to take. You gently shook it in return, causing the man to giggle.
“Is she always this shy?” Hongjoong asked his two friends, only for Seonghwa to speak up.
“She’s only shy around boys she finds cute. So I guess you’re one of them.” This made you slap his stomach with the back of your hand, making the poor boy groan. You glared at him, only for Yeosang to laugh out loud before prompting you a high five.
“The rest will be out a minute. You can have a look around if you don’t plan on getting any piercings or tattoos.” Yunho said with a smile before turning to Yeosang and his smile completely disappeared before it turned into a snarl.
“Now get your ass back there. You’re late for your appointment.” Yeosang could only smile cheekily before he followed Yunho round the back.
You began to walk around the parlour, admiring the tattoo designs on the wall while Seonghwa and Hongjoong were just chatting by the counter. You were too engrossed in the tattoo designs that you completely missed the way two males just left one of the back rooms. One was a client and one was a piercing artist by the name of San who was also their friend.
You also missed the way Seonghwa pointed to you as he told San about why he and Yeosang came here today, earning a small cheeky smirk from the younger boy. You were just staring at the beautiful mermaid design when someone’s hand on your back made you jump.
It was just Seonghwa.
“Y/N, come meet another friend of ours. This is San. He’s in-charge of the piercings.” The said boy extended his hand out to you, making you shake it politely before saying hello. He too was pretty cute. Unlike Hongjoong who had two full tattoo sleeves, San was pretty clean on the skin except one or two small tattoos on his neck and inner bicep.
However, his piercings were prominent. He had a number of them on each ear, along with an eyebrow piercing on the right side and a tongue piercing.
You thought Seonghwa and Yeosang were cute. You clearly haven't seen their friends.
Right after you had just let go of San’s hand, a voice coming closer and closer to the main area made you turn your head towards the back rooms. Only to see a buff man maybe in his late 20s leave the back room. However, the person who left after him was the reason why your heart almost leaped out of your chest.
You couldn’t help but stare at him as you felt yourself stumble back a step. Crashing into Seonghwa slightly.
You watched as he went round the back of the counter to toss the tray of equipment into the sink before turning to Hongjoong and telling him the amount to charge the man.
After the man had taken the change and left, that’s when San spoke up brightly. His energy was definitely not at your level.
“Oh yah! Seonghwa hyung and Yeosang finally brought their friend over to meet us!” The individual turned off the tap and grabbed a clean cloth from the counter, only to turn around. That’s when his eyes got locked on yours. He paused his movements for a split second before returning his gesture.
But the disappointment on your face didn’t go unnoticed by him when all he did was nod his head towards you and simply turned back to go to the back room.
“Sorry about him. He can be a little rough with new people. His name is Wooyoung by the way.” San said. You clearly recognized him. His name felt all too familiar on your tongue.
Why did he react that way? Did he really not recognize you? Is he the Wooyoung from your childhood?
All these questions began to flood your train of thoughts as Yeosang and Yunho came back out laughing at something the other said. Just then, Seonghwa gently snakes his arm around your waist only to whisper in your ear.
“Y/N? Are you okay?”
You blinked away from the back room that Wooyoung just entered only to nod. But you knew Seonghwa well enough to know that he didn’t buy your bullshit, yet he decided not to question any further.
A few minutes later, two more boys came in only for you to find out that they were also friends with the boys and their names were Mingi and Jongho.
The 9 of you ended up hanging out at the parlour, while you managed to warm up to San, Hongjoong and Yunho almost immediately thanks to their outgoing characters. You were seated on the couch’s armrest with your legs crossed over the other politely to cover your private area when Yeosang asked if they wanted to go grab dinner after the shop closes in an hour's time.
They all agreed to it, only for a new customer to enter. San immediately got up to attend to them who wanted piercings.
You noticed his absence in the circle when you glanced over to the back room. The boys’ voices were completely muffled in your ears as you couldn’t tear your focus off the male standing in the back room alone, looking busy.
He was wearing a plain black muscle tank. His biceps in perfect display, his right arm sleeve decorated with the most prettiest tattoo designs, his ear piercings, the left eyebrow slit and a piercing. He was hot.
You didn’t know how long you were staring, until he turned his head and caught you. With that, you quickly turned your head away in hopes that he wouldn’t think you’re a creep.
After they closed up the shop, the 9 of you dispersed to your respective vehicles to meet up at the dinner spot. You watched him carefully as Wooyoung approached the sports bike that was parked a few cars down from Seonghwa’s car. You cursed at yourself internally for out rightly checking him out when in reality, you might just be a stranger to him.
Nevertheless, you went for dinner and you bonded with the rest of them pretty quickly. Minus Wooyoung of course. That night, Seonghwa added you to their group chat and immediately, they welcomed you warmly.
Tumblr media
Days became months ever since the rest of them first met you. The boys have been including you to most of their hangouts even if it just consists of them chilling at the parlour. However, not much has changed between you and Wooyoung. You knew you couldn’t force him to remember you so you avoided that. And he knew he couldn’t just outrightly tell you the truth cause it's been years since he last properly talked to you.
So he feels slightly embarrassed to actually talk to you and get close to you again. Today was no different as you all hung out at the mall for the day. You wore a blue floral off shoulder dress that stops at your mid thighs. You paired your outfit with a white converse, and your hair left in a straight wavy look.
Seonghwa picked you up as usual, only to compliment you on your look.
You arrived at the mall a few minutes before some of them, with Yeosang, Hongjoong and San already there. You were just leaning against the wall in between Yeosang and San, only to rest your head on Yeosang’s arm.
You were just talking to Hongjoong when you heard Yeosang call out to some familiar names. You lifted your head off his arm, only to see the remaining four boys walking up to you.
That’s when you took notice of Wooyoung’s outfit. He wore a white shirt with a black leather jacket, a white denim skinny jeans and a pair of Nikes. Damn he looked good. You looked away before he felt uncomfortable, only to bury yourself against Yeosang’s side.
You ignored his teasing, saying you were just tired when he knew that wasn’t the truth. They walked around the mall for a bit when they stood on the escalator one after another.
You were standing a few steps above Wooyoung, just talking to Jongho when he noticed a group of young boys peeking under your dress’ skirt from three steps below. But both Jongho and you didn’t notice this. He climbed up the steps, walking past the boys only to quickly come up behind you and used his body to shield your dignity from them.
But what made you jump was when you felt someone snake an arm around your waist from behind. You whipped your head around, ready to curse but your eyes melted when you saw him.
“Relax. The boys behind me were peeking under your skirt so I blocked them for you.” Wooyoung said softly, making you glance past his shoulder to see a group of young boys looking fairly annoyed at Wooyoung.
With that being said, you looked back at Wooyoung only to smile softly and said, “Thank you.”
Wooyoung could feel his heart skip a beat as they arrived on the top floor. What you thought he would let go of your waist, you were proven wrong. Wooyoung kept his arm around your waist, keeping it there naturally and it surprised you.
What you did realize is the way he kept looking back so you decided to do the same. You saw the same boys trailing behind you and this made you slightly uncomfortable.
You looked at Wooyoung who was already staring at you. Just then, you noticed the inner corner of his lips curving up into a smile.
You mimicked his expression as he playfully bopped your nose with his own, making you giggle.
Neither of you realized where you were going until the rest of them stopped in front of a restaurant. That’s when Wooyoung finally pulled away from you and you immediately missed his touch. Since that day, you couldn’t forget the way he hugged your waist, protecting you from potential harassment.
That was enough to make your heart melt even more for him. All you needed to know now is if he really doesn’t remember you or if he’s just been pretending this whole time.
Tumblr media
It has been a month since that incident at the mall. Although Jongho was the only one who saw the small interaction between you and Wooyoung, he wasn’t one to rat people out. With that being said, nobody else except Jongho actually saw Wooyoung holding you by your waist that day.
It was currently a Saturday late afternoon and the boys invited you to hangout at Chan’s shared apartment with San and Wooyoung.
Since you were from your girls day out with Jennie, Lisa and Yeri, you were wearing a white skater skirt with a baby blue bralette that acts as a crop top for you. Your outfit was definitely more on the explicit side but it was just the boys right? They wouldn’t mind? Would they?
You arrived at their doorstep, only to be greeted by San who immediately gave you a one over, “Woah…” San said under his breath, making you realise that maybe this outfit was a bit too much.
“My outfit’s too provocative isn’t it?” You asked, making the boy panic. “What?! No! No! You look pretty, Y/N. Even hot to be honest. It’s just… like you said, a little provocative but I love it! I think you look great.” San said as he hugged you and soon dragged you in.
Suddenly, you were too shy to enter the house filled with boys and he noticed this. San chuckled as he rested a hand on your back to guide you until you were met with those in the living room. Similarly to San, everyone’s eyes were now on you, more specifically your outfit. “Woah. Since when do you own these clothes?” Seonghwa asked, making her sigh.
“I only wear these kinds of things when I’m out with my girlfriends. And I was with them, I just got lazy to head home and change. But seeing how all of you reacted, I wouldn’t mind doing it.”
Right after you ended your speech, a series of rejections came your way and it honestly baffled you.
“I just asked you about your ownership of these clothes, I never said you looked ugly in them.” Seonghwa said with a teasing smirk on his face. You scoffed as you stole a cushion from behind Mingi only to toss it in Seonghwa’s face.
However, the conversation got cut off when the halted footsteps down the hallway caught everyone’s attention.
There Wooyoung stood, in his grey sweatpants and a plain black muscle tank. His ash grey hair cutely tousled on his head as he scanned your outfit from head to toe, suddenly feeling his throat get dry and his face get hot. Since when did his childhood neighbour get this hot?
The room fell silent until Wooyoung spoke up first to get you attention.
“You look… nice.”
His simple comment made your heart melt as you thanked him shyly before putting your purse down beside Yunho on the couch and soon excused yourself to go to the bathroom. Once you were inside, you locked the door and soon stared at yourself in the mirror. You totally don’t blame them for staring but why did you feel extra warm when Wooyoung stared at you?
Fuck, this is torture.
Meanwhile in the living room, the minute you were gone, Yeosang was the first one to whisper out loud. “In the past 4 years I’ve known her, I have never once seen her in anything like that. What is she so hot for?”
“She looked really pretty just now. But I feel bad that she looked slightly uncomfortable.” Mingi said, making Wooyoung glance at the hallway.
A few minutes later, you finally left the bathroom ready to join the others when a familiar voice called for you from down the hall. You turned around to see Wooyoung poking his head out his bedroom door. He gestured for you to come over and so you did. Once you were in front of his bedroom, he carefully pulled you in before closing the door behind him.
“Wooyoung? What are we doing here?” You asked as he walked over to his dresser, only to pull out an oversized sweater before coming back to you.
“Here, wear this. Even though the rest of us really liked your outfit and we think you look really pretty in it, we do notice you being uncomfortable wearing that around us.” The room fell quiet as you stared at the sweater in his hand before looking back up at him.
“Wooyoung-” He cut you off by gently placing the sweater in your hands, making you smile.
“Thank you.”
He smiled softly at you as he watched you put the sweater over your head. It definitely was a bit too big on you but you loved it. Especially since it had a strong scent of him. After you were done, you spoke up saying, “Let’s go.” However, before you could reach for the door handle, Wooyoung stops you by sliding an arm around your waist.
Your breath hitched in your throat as you turned around to face him. You thought he would say something but what happened next made your heart skip a beat.
Wooyoung simply pressed his lips on your softly, his eyes fluttered shut as he moved his lips against yours. You were quick to do the same, hands finding their way up his chest and around his neck. You felt him hug you, deepening the kiss when you opened your mouth for him. Wooyoung pulled away for a brief second only to kiss you again. It was a kiss that he had been longing for, and he was finally getting it.
He soon pulled away, heavy breaths mingled together as you pressed your foreheads against one another. The room fell silent, your fingertips tracing down his neck before you spoke up.
“You remember who I am, don’t you?”
“I do.”
“Then why… why did you act like you didn’t know me?” Wooyoung let out a soft sigh before he spoke up.
“I’m really sorry. I just thought you would have forgotten me since I treated you awfully since my dad became an addict… I’m so sorry Y/N.” Wooyoung whispered against your lips, making you cup his face.
“Shh, it’s okay… I forgive you.” You said as you kissed the tip of his nose, only for him to hug you. He buried his face in your neck, feeling him plant soft kisses onto your skin. You both stayed like that for a while, just embracing each other after all these years. You were the first to pull away, only to kiss him again.
“Promise me you’ll never leave me again.”
“I promise.”
You smiled as he pecked your lips and soon, both of you came back out to join the others. They asked you where you were, only for you to say you had a quick catch up session with Wooyoung. That stirred some confusion from them but they didn’t question any further. They also didn’t comment on the sweater that was now covering your body.
A few hours later, you were all playing a game of truth or dare as you sat in between Mingi and Wooyoung. The bottle stopped at you, making you choose dare over truth. “I dare you to kiss someone in this room right now.” You found yourself smirking as you shrugged your shoulders confidently.
“Easy.”
Without further ado, you didn’t even need to think as you turned to your left and kissed Wooyoung with a smile gracing over your lips. The gasps didn’t go unheard by you and Wooyoung but you couldn’t help but focus on your childhood neighbour.
Wooyoung reaches up to hold your face gently as the other hand snakes around your waist to pull you closer. After you pulled away with a soft giggle, Yeosang couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity, “Since when are you two close?”
“Actually, he was my childhood neighbour.” That’s when Hongjoong spoke up loudly in shock.
“She’s the one you’ve been telling me about?! I told you she would cross paths with you again and things would get better!” You turned to Wooyoung, only to see his ears turn red.
You found out that he had told Hongjoong everything about you and his friendship with you except for your name. You couldn’t help but laugh as Wooyoung hugged your side before kissing your cheek. This was such an endearing side of him, something you would never expect coming from a scary looking boy with two full sleeve tattoos.
Nevertheless, you were happy things got resolved between you and him.

Tumblr media
He turns onto your street and as you get closer to your house, there’s a car out front you don’t recognize.
“You expecting somebody?” Arvin asks.
“Nope,” you say seeing a figure sitting on the front porch swing- unable to make out who it is.
Pulling up to the house the figure is a man, but you still can’t distinguish any features as Arvin continues to drive down the dirt road. You’re incredibly nervous and your mind is racing wondering who it would be. You were scared.
“Hey, it’s alright,” Arvin says, noticing as you fidget in your seat. He takes your hand to comfort you, now driving with one hand on the wheel. He parks his truck at the side of the house. It’s Henry Curtis- that damned reporter. Shit, you think to yourself, he doesn’t know that you lied to him at the bar.
“Who is that?” Arvin asks, staring daggers at the man as he flips a page in the newspaper he was reading while he waits on the front porch. You hide your face behind Arvin, leaning back so Mr. Curtis can’t see who is in the passenger seat.
“He’s this reporter that’s been trying to write a story about my mom,” you explain quickly, “He came into the bar the night before trying to talk to me but I lied and said I wasn’t me. He must have gotten the address somehow- he knows the Sheriff lives here… Maybe he’s trying to dig up something.”
“Is there something-?”
“No! Of course not,” you lie, and it makes you feel terrible. It makes you feel so guilty lying to Arvin but you weren’t ready to tell him anything. “Like everyone else in this town, he’s probably heard all the rumors and things people are saying about me and he’s gonna try to use that.”
“What should we do? It’s not like he’s seeing you with Sheriff Bodecker… you’re with me.”
“Wait- Arvin, that’s it,” you say in a hushed voiced. You peer over his shoulder to see if the reporter was getting suspicious.
“What’s it?” he asks with an eyebrow raised.
“Pretend to be my boyfriend?” You ask hurriedly. “If he thinks I’m single he’s gonna keep hounding me. But if I’m in a relationship, he’s got no reason to keep pursuing the dead-end story and maybe he’ll leave me alone.”
Arvin looks at you, and sighs heavily as he thinks about it. He knows it’s pointless because he knows he’s never going to be able to say no to you. Besides, it’s just a one-time rouse, just so this guy doesn’t bother you again. Arvin feels obligated to say yes, hoping this somehow could make his actions in the past up to you.
“Okay,” he says, forcing a small smile. “I’ll follow your lead.”
“Thank you, thank you, thank you!” you exclaim, giving him a brief hug.
He gets out of the car first, tipping his baseball cap to the man on the porch, before coming around and helping you out of the truck. He keeps his arm around your waist, and holds you close to his side as he walked. Christ, he’s missed this.
“Afternoon,” Curtis greets, putting down his newspaper, and leaving it on the swing. “Henry Curtis. I’m a reporter for the Columbus Dispatch.” He comes down the front steps, as Arvin grabs your groceries from the back of the truck. He walks over to the car and extends his hand to both of you, matching his introduction with a firm handshake. He tilts his head, looking at you, immediately recognizing you from the bar. You’re quick on your feet, and good at putting on an act. You spoke quickly before he got the chance to accuse anything.
“I remember you Mr. Curtis,” you say with a smile. You come off as a little shy. “I wasn’t very truthful to you when we first met and I’m sorry about that,” you say. “But I was scared when you came in asking for me,” you explain, “Strange man comes in, asking for me by name without introducing himself first. Would scare any gal, I hope you understand.”
Arvin holds back a laugh at how thick you are laying it on. You were putting on a Southern belle persona, and it wasn’t like you at all. He admired how quick you were on your feet. It amazed him actually how smoothly you were able to pull it off. “I’m (Y/N) (Y/L/N),” you say, introducing yourself properly. “This is my boyfriend Arvin Russell.” His heart tugs a little, but he ignores it the best he can.
“I suppose I understand,” Curtis says, looking the two of you over. “I think that I came on a little too strong when I first introduced myself. I apologize. It’s nice to meet you both.”
“Good to know ya, Mr. Curtis,” Arvin nods, bringing your groceries up to your front porch as Mr. Curtis asks you more questions.
“I hate to intrude,” Curtis begins and you hold back a scoff, “But I had been told by some people you too had called it quits before the Sheriff moved in- a Ms. Perry, I think. When I was just asking around for a way to get in touch, her and another woman told me more than I was asking.”
“Oh of course, Mr. Curtis,” you chuckle. “They would have been right, but we’ve gotten back together since then. You’re in on the news before Ms. Perry it sounds like.”
“Ah, we’ll I’m happy to hear you both are happy,” he clears his throat. He wasn’t anticipating this and this new information has thrown off his hunch about the situation.
“That’s mighty kind of you,” you smile, resting your arm on Arvin’s shoulder when he returns to your side.
“How long has it been?” he asks curiously. You look up at Arvin, biting your lip playing dumb trying to remember.
“About two weeks, I think,” you finalize, “Maybe three. I mean we’d been together since we both got out of high school so it’s more like we’ve done been together for four years.”
“And you both don’t mind the living situation, not to pry in something that isn’t my business, but an unmarried woman renting out a room to a man is very peculiar,” he insinuates, and Arvin wraps his arm around your waist.
“I have no reason to not trust her,” Arvin says, coming to your defense, and you genuinely smile, even though you know it’s not true. It hurts, but you know it’s just for now. Keeping your relationship with Lee a secret was your idea after all, and you thought keeping it a secret would be easier. But now you’re here lying to one of the only people in town you care about.
“I’d be more worried about the Sheriff,” Curtis counters with a laugh. “Well, I came here to talk to Ms. (Y/L/N) about her mother.”
“I didn’t lie to you when I said I didn’t know anything,” you interject. “Honest, I don’t. I wish I knew more. I’m worried sick thinking about my brother and if he’s okay- but I haven’t heard about either of them. They haven’t reached out since they moved out.”
“I believe you,” he said sympathetically, “Sheriff Bodecker let me read the statement you gave at the station. And I’m sorry you are going through this.”
“I don’t know how’d I’d make it through without Arvin,” you say, looking up at him. He leans down and kisses your temple quickly.
“I should be going, I suppose,” he says, “I’ll be in town for a little while longer, so I hope to see you too around. Please, call me if you hear something.” The man hands you both a business card, and then goes to his car, and pulling away, not even bothering to grab the newspaper he left on the front porch.
“What a sleaze,” you shudder, moving away from Arvin’s embrace.
“He seemed nice enough,” Arvin shrugs, “But I guess that’s an act he puts on.”
“He’s trouble, Arvin,” you insist. He nods, trusting you. You both stand awkwardly for a few moments. You were wishing you could tell him and come clean. It felt horrible keeping this secret from him, he didn’t deserve to be a pawn covering up this scheme of yours without knowing. You would tell him, you decided you would, but you needed to wait for the right time.
“I really appreciate you helping me,” you say, cutting across the silence.
“Of course,” he says, putting his hands in his pockets. “I guess I should get going. I need to pick up Lenora at the cemetery.”
“Okay,” you nod, “See you later?”
“I’m always here,” he chuckles. You turn around and bring your bags inside as Arvin drives away. The whole interaction with Curtis made you incredibly uncomfortable, and you just wanted nothing more than to just see Lee.
You put the groceries away quickly, and then needed to change out these clothes. You headed up to your bedroom, and changed into a more comfortable outfit. You felt a little gross, like there was a layer of something on your skin, even though you were fine. It was like the residue of the lie you told Arvin was still crawling on your skin. You kept reminding yourself that it was only temporary.
“It’s okay to be selfish sometimes, sweetheart,” Lee said, pulling you in close later that night as you were telling him about how you felt towards lying to Arvin. He appreciated how honest you were, and he often wished he was more like you.
However, he also couldn’t help the jealousy that was bubbling up inside him. Thinking about Arvin touching you, even if you had been his first- the visual made his jaw lock. It wasn’t that it was just Arvin- any man touching you would send him into a jealous frenzy. He wasn’t worried about you. He really truly trusted you, but he didn’t for a second trust the Russell boy when it came to you.
You rested your head on his shoulder and rested your palm on his chest as he pulled the blanket up for the two of you. He laid on his back, you cuddled up close to his side. He had one arm wrapped securely around you and the other rested bent behind his head.
“I just hate keeping secrets,” you mumble and it makes him sigh. He now combatted with his own guilt. He was torn between telling you about his involvements around town, like Leroy Brown, or telling you about how he’s been covering for his sister. He wants out, and he just wants to protect you. His main concern about keeping that part of his life under wraps isn’t even about reelection anymore, it’s about keeping you safe. Brown couldn’t know about you; it would put you in danger. He just needed time to get out of the whole mess and then he’d confess everything to you, even if the fear of losing you stayed at the forefront of his mind.
“It’s not forever, sweetheart,” he whispers, rubbing circles on your back comfortingly. “We won’t have to keep ourselves locked away in this house forever,” he chuckles, “even though I love it.” His words make you blush and you swat his chest playfully. “What? I do,” he grins, “I love just being home with you. It’s like the rest of the world don’t even exist when it’s just you and me.”
“When that reporter leaves, everything will get better,” you affirm. “I thought keeping us a secret would be easier,” you admit, drawing aimless shapes over his white t-shirt.
“I can’t wait to show you off,” he mumbles, nuzzling closer to you. “Just show the whole world you’re my girl.”
“You did get pretty lucky,” you chuckle, closing your eyes.
“I know I did,” he hums in agreement, pulling you into his chest.
You got the call the next day letting you know you got the job. You quit your bartending job immediately, you’re so excited that you forget all about the stress you were battling with the previous night. You felt like you were walking on air. Things were looking up for the most part. You had secured a stable job, you were going to start making more money, you had Lee- you felt good. It was definitely a calm before the storm.
You’re worries for now floated to the back of your mind and you allowed yourself to just be happy for yourself. You got something, and it was all your own. You worked hard and you did this. You’d start this next phase of your life Monday morning and you couldn’t wait. You wanted to just speed through the weekend. Well, speed through the rest of Thursday, Friday, Saturday- enjoy your date with Lee, and then speed through Sunday.
You had butterflies. You felt silly that the idea of going on a date with Lee made you feel this way but you were really excited. It made you feel like this relationship was normal, and much more doable than you were thinking it would be. The age gap, living together, so many things made you worry constantly about other people and their opinions. Being stuck in that small town really would affect your confidence and self-esteem. You’re strong, and most of the time things that petty don’t affect you, but the consistency of it all is draining.
Now you both are sitting in the front of Lee’s car, not the cruiser- his ’55 Dodge he hardly drove. He kept his car, but because he was always working, it mostly sat in your garage. He’d offer you the keys, leaving them hanging up in the kitchen for you to take whenever you wanted, but something about the town seeing you driving his car was daunting. You knew people would talk regardless of what you did, but you didn’t like to add fuel to the flame when you could avoid it.
Sitting in the bench seat, with your eyes glued to the movie that played on the screen, you kept stealing glances at Lee. He looked nice out of uniform- much more relaxed and like he wasn’t hiding behind some front he felt he needed to live up to the badge. His leather jacket was secured around your shoulders, and you decide to slid over to him. Your actions snap him out of his thoughts and he smirks, pulling his arm around you and pulling you in close to his side.
It was a dark night, you couldn’t see in to the cars surrounding you, even though you were parked towards the back of the lot of cars anyways. The window was rolled down just enough to have the speaker clipped in place, and the breeze was a little chilly. He pressed his lips to the top of your head, giving you a quick kiss while you got comfortable and then you both turned back to the movie.
Lee couldn’t focus on the movie in front of him if he wanted to. It was just like how he felt like that night awhile back when you’d fallen asleep on the couch together. This time though, he shouldn’t be nervous. You were there and his girl. But now he felt nervous like he was a teenager again or something- and you’re there wrapped up in his arms, and the smell of your shampoo is amazing, and he’s just so wrapped up in thoughts of you, he couldn’t even tell you the name of the movie playing, or who was in it, or what it was even about. Then, you rested your hand on his leg and he thought he was going to combust.
“Lee,” you whisper in his ear and he feels a shiver run down his whole spine, “Are you paying attention?”
“Y-yeah,” he says, sitting up a little straighter and you scoff.
“What’s the movie called?” you ask with a smirk, rubbing his leg gently. He fumbles over his words trying to stall.
“I don’t know,” he sighs, running a hand through his hair nervously.
“Me neither,” you giggle, and he let’s out a long breath of relief. You lean up to whisper in his ear, your hand rubbing over the bulge in his pants. “I can’t think about anything but moving to the backseat,” you whisper. He groans as a response and then pulls you into a kiss, tangling his hand in your hair. You teasingly bit his lip, pulling away from the kiss. He pouts at the separation as you quickly kick off your shoes and then climb over the bench seat to the back, accidentally (or maybe on purpose) giving him a view of your panties that you wore under your skirt.
“You’re killing me, doll,” he moans, quickly following your lead, smacking your ass playfully. You yelp in response and laugh as he climbs over the bench seat and crawls on top of you.
He scoops you up in his arms so he can seat stretched out on the backseat and you maneuver so you’re straddling his waist, your miniskirt riding up around your waist. His tongue tangles with yours and his hands grab at the flesh of your upper thighs. Your hands move down his chest to his torso to his belt, fumbling to undo the buckle and then his fly.
“Fuck,” he moans, when he pulls away from the kiss and his hands move to rub your back under your top. You move to pulls his jacket off of you and he holds your wrists gently to stop you. “Keep it on, sugar,” he murmurs, and then dips down to kiss and bit at your neck. You moan as he kisses from your neck downward as he partially unbuttons your shirt, opening it just enough to reveal your bra.
As your hands run through his hair, he pulls back from your skin to kiss your lips frantically again. His hand travels down and pushes his pants and boxers down enough to free his cock, and he swiftly moves your panties to the side. “Please, Lee,” you whine impatiently, and he smirks, feeling your arousal.
“You’re so wet, baby girl,” he chuckles, teasing your entrance and you moan. He loves ever reaction you give him.
“You want me to ride you Sheriff?” you ask lowly batting your lashes. He rests his head back and he has a firm grip on your hips.
“Please, honey,” he says, almost in a whimper. It felt good, it felt really good seeing him under you like this. You smile, leaning down and kissing his neck as you slide yourself onto his length. You take a sharp intake of breath, adjusting as it stretches you and Lee moans. You’re thankful the windows are fogged, and the movie is still playing, but there was something thrilling about this nonetheless. No one would see you if they looked over anyways, and no one would be paying attention to your car.
“You’re so big,” you praise as you begin to move yourself up and down. Lee peppers kisses on exposed part of your breast and moves his hands down to squeeze your ass as you ride him.
“Fuck you’re so perfect, sweetheart, you feel so good,” he moans, his hands helping to move you up and down on him.
His praises just encourage you to quicken your pace and he still helps guide you. Not breaking your rhythm together, he moves one hand to pull out his wallet from his pocket while the other moves to rest on the small of your back as you continue to bounce on him.
“One second, sweetheart,” he mumbles against your lips. “Lay down on the seat for me.”
You nod and follow his instructions. You watch as he pulls a condom from his wallet, quickly unwrapping it and slipping it on. Once he secures it, he bends down connecting his lips with yours again.
“You’re stunning,” he praises, taking off your panties. He takes a minute to just take in how you look- your hair sprawled out as you rest your back on the seat, your chest rising and falling breathing heavy with anticipation, your neck covered in marks he’s left behind and your skirt pushed up around your waist, and you’re wearing his jacket. “Goddamn perfect,” he declares, kissing you one more time before guiding himself into you.
His thrusts are a little sloppy, this new position makes the limited space much more obvious, but it doesn’t matter. You both are close and pressed up against each other, and both of you know you’re close. He can feel as you tighten around him and you can feel every time, he’s hitting the spots inside you perfectly.
“Lee, I’m so close,” you moan, your arms wrapping around his neck, and he moves faster, this time the car rocks a little, making you laugh.
“Fuck, you’re so tight, sugar,” he grunts, “so perfect.”
You throw your head back as you feel your release, and at the sensation he shortly follows.
“Fuck, Lee,” you moan, feeling your orgasm rip through you.
“Fuck, I love you, sugar,” he groans, as he rides out his orgasm. He pulls out, resting his forehead on yours, panting heavily.
“You what?” You ask breathless, your eyes widening at the confession.

DEVILISH || dreamwastaken x reader
Tumblr media
requested?: not really.
warnings: suggestive themes,,, semi-smut,,, language,,, use of dream's real name,,, the words "hey mamas" were said, dream is hot,,, i dont go into complete detail with smut but be warned
rating: m, please don't read this if it makes you uncomfortable or you're under at least 15 !!
pronouns: none used, could be read as gender neutral, amab or afab im pretty sure :> (one mention of a clit that can be ignored)
in all your 21 years of living, never had you met someone so much like you.
you were a bit of a player, going through life not caring about peoples feelings. you would flirt with someone, makeout with them, sometimes sleep with them, but you were always gone by the morning. moving around a lot helped with that. you had been often described as DEVILISH, a few people claiming you were heartless.
most recently you find yourself in florida, visiting a friend, when she tells you there's a party going on at this rich guys house.
"c'mon (y/n)! i've heard the guy thats throwing the party has to be like top 5% of rich people!" (f/n) insists, pushing your arm and whining.
"firstly, that's not how the statistic works, and secondly, i thought you knew i hated parties." she gives you a look as you finish talking, causing you to continue.
"sweaty drunk people dancing, ugly guys who think they have a chance, need i say more?" you list, watching as her face drops.
she rolls her eyes, "you may meet a guy or girl or someone else who is interested in just sex! who knows, but you should really come. maybe break a few hearts."
you think for a second, considering her words. she's right! you're in a new state and it's your first night here, why not find a random cute hookup? as long as you're safe it should be fine.
you sigh dramatically causing her to gasp, "that's a yes! okay let's get dressed! the party starts in like 15 minutes but we'll be fashionably late so its it's fine."
you spend about 45 minutes on hair and makeup, going with a heavy eyeliner look, waterproof incase you do end up with someone by the end of the night. the outfit is a simple dark purple dress that clings to your body, and fishnets underneath.
as you guys pull up to the guys house- mansion you gasp, "holy shit you weren't kidding."
you're driving, not liking to drink and you let out a laugh as his gates open to let you in. "who the fuck is this guy?"
your friend laughs too as you park, opening her door to let herself out as you do the same.
as you guys walk in you see the party in full swing, the led lights on a pretty purple color, complimenting your look perfectly.
a guy with short brown hair walks up to you, offering to take your jackets. "hey mamas-"
he gets cut off by another guy with fluffy brown hair elbowing him. "he means hi and welcome. this is his party."
"really?" your friend asks, intrigued.
a different guy, shorter than the other two by a bit walks up as well. "yep, he lives here with his buzzkill of a roomate clay."
"i'm sapnap by the way." the first guy says, offering his hand.
after making quick introductions to everyonein the small group you blurt out, "fucking shit your house is huge dude! what do you do for a living, rob banks?"
sapnap laughs as you all walk over to a closet to put your jackets in. "HA no actually its my roommate who spent the most on this house. and would you believe me if i told you we were youtubers and twitch streamers?"
"not in the slightest." you shake your head.
"well then i guess we aren't."
you give him a weird look, shrugging as (f/n) walks off talking to alex and karl, the other guys sapnap was with.
"and where is this rich roomate?" you ask, nudging him with your elbow playfully. you like this guy, not in like a dating way but you can appreciate his company.
"editing. he said he would be down within at least 2 hours." he answers with an overdramatic eye roll, making you nod.
you two get to know each other for about 15 minutes when you suddenly get the urge to use the bathroom.
"where's the bathroom?" you ask him after a few moments of silence in a break in conversation.
"there's one down here but i just saw a couple walk in there, there should be a free one up on the srcond floor." he answers, standing up and, after helping you up too, walking over to where karl and alex are.
you have no idea where your friend is but you aren't too worried seeing as you haven't been here for long.
you walk up the stairs as streets by doja cat starts to play, walking past a few couples making out and some people coming downstairs.
you wander around the second floor, only finding empty bedrooms until you open a door with a person on the other side.
a tall tan guy with blonde hair is on a large bed with neon green bedding, in grey sweatpants and a loose dark green shirt. he has his headphones in and he looks extremely focused.
this must be clay, sapnap's "buzzkill" roomate.
you walk up to the extremely attractive man, patting the bed next to him. he blinks up at you, clicking his space button and taking his headphones off which gives you a chance to see his freckled face and gorgeous green eyes.
"where's the bathroom? sapnap said it was somewhere up here but gave me no direction and your house is huge."
the attractive man lets out an attractive laugh.
"yeah sure there's one right down the hall at the end, i also have one attached to my room you could use?"
before you get the chance to answer, he speaks again. "also can i ask your name?"
"(y/n)." you answer simply.
you decide to take him up on the offer of his own bathroom, walking in there and doing what you need to. as you wash your hands you look and see your lipgloss is a bit smudged. fixing it, you give yourself a smile, you look hot.
walking out, you see he has set his lap top to the side, closing it entirely.
"so (y/n), do you want to sit and talk to me for a bit?" the smirk on his face is a dangerous one, devilish even.
you nod with a smirk of your own, sitting next to him on the bed. you spend a good amount of time looking at each other.
after a good few seconds you notice he's leaning in and don't hesitate to return his kiss.
the two of you passionately meet in a clash, the kiss full of want and lust.
a few minutes later he's pick you up and placing you on his lap.
as you start to subconsciously grind you hear him gasp a bit, making you smile into the kiss. you continue to do so when he grabs your waist, moving you at his own slow pace. you start to feel a bit needy, feeling him harden beneath you.
you can hear the song swim by chase atlantic play from downstairs as you attampt to move your hips faster, harder, anything.
"did i say you could move on your own?" clay asks in a deep voice, leaning down to kiss and bite at your neck.
you whine a bit, letting out a gasp of your own when he sucks particularly hard in a certain area.
after a while of just mvoing against him he gets impatient and flips you over, ripping your fishnets at your center. you gasp, "you bitch i payed for those!"
"i'll buy you new ones." he insists, rolling his eyes and going to his dresser, returning seconds later with a condom.
"are you sure about this?" he asks with a calm look.
"of course i am, are you?" you quip back.
he nods moving, your underwear to the side, his finger grazing your clit. your back arches a bit, his eyes darkening at your response to his touch.
he tugs down his own pants and underwear before putting on the condom, lining himself up with your entrance.
as he pushes in you both let out a deep and shaky breath. he stretches you more than anyone ever has, you take a few seconds to adjust.
you give the okay in the form of a nod after a few seconds, the pain still slightly there but the pleasure over taking it.
he starts to slowly move in and out of you, making sure to go as deep as possible, "shit (y/n)." he hisses out.
you lay there for a moment after the two of you finish, wiping away sweat with a towel.
"i-" you start.
"let's-" clay goes to speak.
the both of you laugh and you gesture for him to speak.
"i was gonna ask if we could maybe keep this on the dl? it's just- i don't want my friends to be weird about it. uhm what were you going to say?" his statement makes you want to laugh.
"i was saying i don't live here so this is most likely the last time we will ever see eachother. "
he raises an eyebrow as DEVILISH by chase atlantics' last few lines play.
im devilish, yuh
im devilish, yuh

Leave before you love me--sebastian stan oneshot
Tumblr media
a/n: This scenario has been in my head since I heard this song. Might be a little on the rusty side as I haven’t written in a while and I’m trying to find the groove for writing for Sebastian! 
Warnings: drinking mentions, party atmosphere, slight banter, a very lightly mentioned age gap (reader is 25) and he is his true age, heavy 80s inspired theme, angst, unprotected sex
Word count: 2.9k
Feedback is always welcomed and I’m trying to get in the groove still of writing him
Enjoy! 🙂
***
The highway lights flash across his windshield as he zooms by on the road, they’re the last remaining stars in the sky. The bright yellow-orange sun is just about peeking above the horizon and he pushes on the gas, the small orange needle ticking closer to ninety. 
His favorite 80’s playlist blares through his speakers and out of his windows, the techno beat of Sunglasses At Night reverberates through his sound system.  The wild wind tousled his hair but it cools his body down and slowly takes away your warmth. He taps his thumb on the wheel as he curves with the bend, the lights up above flicker out one by one as he passes by. 
Sebastian’s trying not to think about the red marks from your nails that still have a slight burn as he rubs against his driver’s seat. He tries to breathe in and out through the thin of his lips because he can still smell your perfume on his shirt. 
He glances at the clock above his screen and he’s right on time which means you will be awakening soon. Sebastian is always consistent.
He rubs at the back of his neck trying not to think of your bare legs peeking out from your sheets, the only thing that covers your skin. 
One more twist and the lights have all timed out and your name flashes across his screen, he feels his phone vibrate in his pocket. He always sees you calling and it’s always at 5 a.m when he’s more than halfway away from you. 
He’s consistent with his poor timing just as he is consistent with crawling back to you. He accelerates to 100 mph. The revving of the engine mimics his lasting hunger and desire for you but he swallows it down and ignores your call.
It’s not that he wants to leave you. No, it’s just that he can’t stay. There’s a difference. Right?
He pulls into a parking spot at a twenty-four hour diner, the open sign flickers intermittently. He doesn’t get out of the car until your name disappears and the bell jingles as he pulls on the door. There’s a small group of people in the corner huddled together that are still in their club outfits, make-up smeared under their tired eyes.
It reminds him of his own party days, he knows they haven’t slept. Sebastian nods to the woman at the u-shaped counter before he slides into a booth. The waitress approaches with a cup and a full pot of coffee.
“Sugar or creamer?” She asks popping her gum as she pours the steaming liquid in the bronze mug. She’s chewing strawberry gum. 
“Neither, thanks,” he huffs.
“Breakfast?”
“Just the coffee,” he shakes his head and looks up at her. “Thanks.”
“Holler if you change your mind,” she nods then traipses her way towards the young group to refill their coffees. 
Sebastian lifts the mug and blows carefully over the top of it, the steam rolls over the opposite lip before he takes a drink. The bitter taste feels good on his tongue and wakes him up slightly. He’s not far off from the party group across the way, he hasn’t slept since taking you to bed last night. 
**
He knew beforehand that you’d be there and he kept promising himself that he wouldn’t take you home. He swore to himself that he wouldn’t be hooked by your eyes or your charm. He vowed to himself that he wouldn’t repeat this thing you two have. 
It was a mutual friend of a friend that you both know hosting a party that was 80’s themed. On his way he made sure to play his 80’s playlist so he’d be in the right state of mind to participate. He didn’t really dress up too much, just some dark wash jeans and a leather jacket. A leather jacket you fashioned for him with your matching red lingerie set. 
Sebastian repeats his promise, his swear, and his vow to himself as he crosses the threshold and is thrown into a swarm of 80’s dressed people. There’s wild hair and bright colors as he moves through the crowd towards the pool, that’s where the makeshift bar is stocked with alcohol. 
He subconsciously looks at each face hoping he doesn’t see you--or does he? 
Chris, as always, is the bartender whenever there’s a party. He claims it’s his calling at parties to make drinks and chat up new people. 
“There’s my guy! Whisky or tequila tonight, buddy?” Chris holds up each bottle of alcohol respectively.
“How about rum and coke?” 
Chris lifts his eyebrows in surprise but dutifully proceeds to mix the desired drink. Rum and coke goes down smoother and doesn’t leave him with a splitting headache the next morning or gut rot like tequila does. 
It has no relation at all to you preferring rum. Absolutely not. 
“Have you seen her yet?” Chris asks, handing his best friend the red plastic cup. 
Sebastian finds humor in this, they’re all adults and can afford actual glasses for everyone, and yet they’re supplied with red solo cups like a college house party. He glances around and is pleased to see a beer pong table is set up near the shed where a group of people are playing and cheering. 
“Nope. Have you?” He takes a ginger sip testing the taste. It’s mixed well so he swallows some more. 
Chris folds his arms and shakes his head.
“No. But I know she’s invited so you two better behave.”
“I will,” Sebastian nods, “I’m going through a three step guide in my head. I’m all good.”
“Yeah? What’s the percentage of it working?”
There’s a collective shout of your name behind him and he cranes his neck to see you being lifted in the air by the mutual friend of a friend you two share. You’re at the beer pong table and apparently you made the winning shot. 
Sebastian looks away before he can really get a good look at you in your outfit but the flash of your skin flickers in his mind. He meets Chris’ eyes.
“Guess we’ll find out.”
Sebastian does a good job of steering clear of you. His three step guide that he made up seems to be working but the more rum he drinks he gets them a little jumbled. He just took a shot with some guy he’s been talking to about cars when he feels a light tap on his shoulder. 
“You’re supposed to dress up.”
He nearly chokes on his shot at the sound of your voice. Sebastian places the shot glass a little haphazardly on the table before turning around and he groans at the sight of you and Tom Jones’ voice is singing ‘She’s a Lady’ over the sound system. 
You’re in high waisted jeans, a ruffled white bandeau and black suspenders that cling to your bare stomach. Your hair is styled in high volume and the lipstick you have on is so red he wonders if it tastes like cherries. 
His eyes drink you in and land on your red nails that are placed on your waist, he takes in a deep breath before traveling back up to your eyes. 
“I did dress up.”
“As who?” you scoff with a laugh taking in his own outfit. He notices how your eyes linger on the jacket.
“Leather jackets were very fashionable in the 80’s. The whole...rocker look,” he waves his hand off dismissively. “I should know.”
“You wore a lot of leather jackets as a toddler?” you snicker. “It was jean jackets and big hair.”
“And how would you know? You weren’t alive then,” he grins. 
“I do my research,” you shrug. “And the 80's are coming back.”
“Well, who are you supposed to be?” he turns as you pull a can of Mike’s Hard Lemonade from a cooler, it’s strawberry lemonade. He holds his hand out expecting you to ask for help to pop it open but you open it yourself and toss the bottle cap onto the table.
“You’re joking, right?” you take a smooth chug of your drink. 
“Are you portraying what a young woman in the 80’s would wear to a party?” he guesses taking in your outfit once more. 
He promises not to...what was the first step again?
“I’m Kelly Kapowski,” you sigh with an eye roll then they widen at his vacant expression. “Don’t tell me you’ve never seen Saved by the Bell?”
“I don’t watch much tv. Does she look half as good as you do in this outfit?” his eyes drift over you once more. 
He swears he won’t….what was it that he swore he won’t do?
“She looks better actually.”
“I find that hard to believe,” he smirks and you shake your head. “How’ve you been? Sorry I left early that last time we were together. I had an appointment that I forgot--what’s so funny?”
You’re laughing at his ramblings of the last time you spent the night together and he left at 5 a.m before you even woke up. 
“I know you’re an asshole, you don’t have to cover it up with excuses,” you snicker then pull the neck of a rum bottle up from behind the counter. 
“I am an asshole, aren’t I?” he watches you pour the drink into two shot glasses. 
“Yeah you are. Shall we cheer to that?” you lift up a shot glass to him. 
“Sure,” he laughs.
You clink glasses then swallow the shot in one go. He watches you while he takes his and smiles at the way your body shivers from the pure rum, and he’s zeroed in on your lips as your tongue swipes up the remaining rum. 
The night continues with you two playing beer pong and winning three times consecutively. You’re touching his arm and leaning on him while you banter with your opponents. He gets a little mesmerized when you hold your hand behind your back as you take your shots and how you toss your hair back before each throw. 
When you swat at a ball, you bump the table and he catches you by the waist so you don’t topple to the grass. You’re both giggling and he feels how cold your skin is.
“You’re freezing,” he murmurs in your hair, his fingers rubbing against the goosebumps on your stomach. 
“I’m pleasantly warm and drunk.”
“You have goosebumps.”
“That’s because you’re touching me.”
Your eyes meet but before either one of you could say something else, you’re being called back into the game. 
Sebastian ends up making the winning throw and you exclaim in joy then jump into his arms from the excitement. He laughs and spins you around in victory. 
“Woah! No spinning or I’ll throw up!” you shriek in laughter and he stops abruptly. 
When you’re bored of playing the game you take his hand and drag him inside to the makeshift dance floor. Your bodies move together as Queen plays and Madonna. Then when ‘Hungry Eyes’ comes on, your bodies are flushed together.
You’re dancing on the edge about to take it too far than you both know you should. His hips move against yours in a way you know all too well and you’re looking at him with those damn eyes of yours. Your eyes always mess with his head. He stops his hips then cups the back of your neck pulling your lips to his. 
You kiss him back and he’s shocked at the taste of strawberries and not cherries but it makes him kiss you with more fervor. Your fingers slip into his hair as you continue to kiss amongst the crowd. He feels his head clear as your lips move with his, your body pressed against every inch of his. 
“Want to get out of here?” he mumbles in your ear and you nod. 
He’s always so good at knowing when to leave the party and he doesn’t care who notices. It’s a known fact that you two show up separately but inevitably leave together. It’s a habit that never breaks. 
Back at your place, you fumble with your keys as he kisses your neck and his fingers are teasing the lower part of your stomach. You crash through the door in a tangle of arms and legs. He kicks the door shut and captures your lips in the same movement. 
He moves through your darkened apartment like so many times before and makes sure to watch for the door handle. He’s bumped his hip too many times in the past. You make quick work of yanking his jacket off just as he snaps your suspenders from the clips. 
You gasp when he suckles on your neck, his hands hot and needy on your waist and stomach. He always remembers how much he misses you when you’re together like this again. When he wants to touch you in a certain spot you move your body so he can before he gets a chance to voice it. You’re never afraid to tell him to keep doing whatever it is he’s doing and the noises you make? 
You unclasp the frilly white fabric and Sebastian is quick to cup your breasts in his hands and attach his mouth to one of them. You hum in response, carding your fingers through his hair as his tongue rolls and swirls over your bud in a tickling fashion that twists your stomach in knots. 
You back up until you fall onto the bed together and he removes his clothes while you shimmy out of your jeans. 
“Wait,” he stops your hands from pulling your panties down, his hands over yours. “Let me.”
You smile and let him take off your last article of clothing. He leaves open mouthed kisses up from the curve of your knee, up your thigh and stomach. His tongue leaves a trail between your breasts and you feel him against his thigh. 
You moan and he takes himself in his hand, ready to guide himself inside you. 
“Wait, wait, wait,” you gasp breathlessly and he stops his movements quickly. 
“Are you okay? Do you feel sick or need water?” he asks, cupping your cheek in his hand.  
Your hand covers his, your eyes steady on him. 
“I’m okay. I want this--you, always but…”
“What?”
“Promise you won’t leave tomorrow?”
Your request is simple and staring at you now he’ll fulfill anything you want. He nods and a faint bell of a promise rings in his ear. Was this what he was trying to remember earlier? The promise of not leaving you? 
You lift your head connecting your lips and he swears he’ll keep this promise just as he sinks into you. Your moan is so sweet and you fit around him so perfectly it makes his body shiver slightly. Just like on the dancefloor, your bodies move rhythmically and the faster he moves the louder you get. 
Your nails make large arcs in his back as you orgasm twice. You’re panting his name, your nails falling slack against his sweaty back. 
“So good for me,” he pants, dragging your hands up above your head. He lifts his head from your shoulder to look at you. “Got one more for me, baby? Hm?”
“Mhm,” you nod, already feeling your stomach twist at his words. 
“Yeah you do, you’re such a good girl for me,” his hips start to move at a quicker pace again. Your mouth opens in pleasure as he hits the right spot. “Always so good for me.”
He watches you come for a third time, your moan long and sweet and then you’re snatching his hair in your fingers. You bring his lips to yours frantically.
“I want you to come for me,” you whisper. “Wanna feel you.”
He groans at your words and licks into your mouth, thrusting as fast as he can chasing his own release. You moan along with him and then he pulls out and his body pulses. He tastes strawberries.
**
Sebastian has his face in his hands as he remembers the swear, promise, and vow he made to himself and the one he made you. He broke all four including two hearts. He’s doubled over in the allotted strikes.
After being together last night he cleaned you up and got you some aspirin and a glass of water. You rolled over and fell asleep in seconds and he stayed up the whole night forcing himself to stay. He stared at the ceiling chasing his thoughts and then when you rolled over cuddling into him he almost fell asleep. 
When the birds started to chirp that’s when he slipped out from underneath you and put his clothes back on. He noticed the goosebumps on your legs and covered you up then kissed your forehead with a whispered, ‘I’m sorry.’
You deserve better than him and that’s why he leaves before you could love him. If he stays he’ll never want to leave and that’s dangerous for his heart and yours. 
His phone buzzes again but this time it’s a text message from you. 
Delete my number and if you see me at a party, don’t approach me. I’m so over this Seb. This is the last time you break my heart.
He should feel relief that this is the end, but he only feels worse. Why couldn’t he just stay?

It’s been three years, and everything has changed, but the biggest change is you. Your new found determination to use your abilities to help the ghosts you used to live in fear of, no matter how dangerous it might be, makes Jungkook fear he’ll lose you before he has a chance to fix what he broke.

Chapter 3
“You ready to go?”
You turned to see Taehyung leaning in your doorway. He was wearing flared jeans and a green paisley silk button-down shirt. The open butterfly collar revealed a vintage Chanel gold medallion, and he’d added light green sunglasses to complete his retro look.
Taehyung had picked out your outfit – a short, cream colored wrap dress with an abstract floral design and long flared sleeves. Knee high rust red boots and pin straight hair completed the look, and for once you felt like a match to his fashionable appearance.
You held up a finger as you opened your jewelry box, looking for the vintage garnet drop earrings you’d found to complement the outfit. You slid them in, moving your hair back to admire how they dangled and caught the light.
“Okay, I’m ready,” you said, turning to find him behind you.
“Almost,” he said, pulling a small box out of his pocket.
“Tae,” you said reprovingly as he opened the box and took out a ring. The antique gold setting was beautiful – an oval opal surrounded by a halo of garnets – and it looked perfect when he slid it onto your right ring finger.
“Now you’re ready,” he said, looking pleased as he stood back to check your appearance.
You raised a brow. “When did you even have time to shop for this?” Taehyung’s little surprise gifts were something to which you’d become accustomed over the last few years, and your attempts to discourage him were usually ignored.
He shrugged and as always, his sheepish grin disarmed you. You reached up and adjusted his collar.
“You look like you’re ready for a Vogue shoot,” you said, smiling back. “The poor girls at this party won’t know what hit them.”
“That’s why I have you to protect me,” he replied.
It was Friday, the final weekend before classes started, and the welcoming activities had ramped up in the last week. You and Taehyung had attended some of them and declined others, but you’d committed to the biggest events of the weekend – tonight’s Musical Eras mixer and tomorrow’s Movie Night on the Quad.
The mixer was being held at the Kappa fraternity house, something that had almost made you reconsider attending because you were certain to run into Jungkook again as you had for the last week. While your anger had cooled, you still felt that knot of anxiety in your stomach whenever you saw him, wondering if he’d still be angry or if he’d just pretend you didn’t exist.
So far, his attitude fell somewhere in the middle – when he saw you and Taehyung together at the supermarket, he tried to hide his reaction, but the little muscle ticking away in his jaw was a dead giveaway. A couple of days later, you saw him in the park while you were walking Yeontan and for once, he didn’t look big mad at the sight of you. You were alone and had considered trying to talk to him, but he was with friends. Not wanting to invite public rejection, you waved at the group and hurried away, noticing the little wrinkle between his brows as he watched you go.
Jin, Jimin and Jimin’s girlfriend, Ayeong, had all been by the house a couple of times. Sera had also visited with her mother, accepting Taehyung’s offer of a house tour since Sera’s mother was interested in how the historical home had been renovated. Jungkook was noticeably absent, though Jin seemed certain that he’d eventually come around.
You weren’t so certain of that. In all the years you’d been friends with Jungkook, you’d never seen him so deeply upset with another person. If someone upset him, he might avoid that person for a while, but he always got over it, and you’d never seen him blow up at anyone the way he had with you.
You always thought you knew him better than anyone, and he you, but now you had to acknowledge the reality of this situation – three years had passed, and the truth was, you didn’t know this Jungkook. Worse, he didn’t know you either and you had no one to blame for that but yourself.
________________
Stepping into the Kappa house was like stepping back in time. The large house had several rooms downstairs, each of which reflected a different decade of music, and everyone had taken their costumes just as seriously. You laughed when Jimin and Ayeong met you out front dressed as Sonny and Cher.
“Very nice,” you said, gesturing to Ayeong’s dress.
“Thanks, I love yours too.”
Thought it was still early, the party was already a crush of people circulating between the rooms. Younger guys, probably freshmen, circulated with drinks on trays which they offered to guests.
“Pledges?” Taehyung asked Jimin as he took a beer.
Jimin nodded. “They have to put in an hour according to a schedule and then they’re free to party. That’s as close to hazing as we get here.”
When Jimin offered you a glass of wine, you shook your head. “I don’t really drink much when I’m…” you paused, unsure how to finish the sentence without being weird. “When I’m out.”
You could see that Jimin understood what you meant. “Got it. We have a dry bar too if you want to call it that.”
Ayeong linked arms with you. “I’ll show her. I’m not really in the mood to drink either.”
The dry bar turned out to be pretty impressive, with lots of juice, sparkling water, club soda, and even fruits you could add. You settled for club soda with a splash of raspberry juice and slices of lemon, while Ayeong created a tropical drink.
“I know Jungkook is being… well, difficult. But I just want you to know that Jimin is so happy you’re back,” Ayeong said. “He said you were all friends since kindergarten.”
“Jimin was always one of the sweetest people at our school,” you replied. “It was really easy to be his friend.”
“Not much has changed then,” Ayeong laughed. “What about Jungkook? Jimin says he wasn’t always such a fuckboy.”
You choked on a sip of your drink. “Jungkook is a fuckboy?”
“Well, a nice one? I think he only hooks up with girls who want the same kind of no-strings fun, so there’s never any drama related to it. He’s not the type to get serious though, which is why I’ve told Erin she needs to move on from her crush.”
Fuckboy Jungkook wasn’t something you could really imagine, nor did you want to. You chose not to think too closely about why it bothered you so much.
But once you spotted him across the room talking to a group of girls, you couldn’t shake that image from your mind. He looked good. Really, really good. He was dressed in tight red pants, a black silk button down, and he’d completed his Michael Jackson Thriller homage with a red leather jacket trimmed in black. When he laughed at something one of the girls said, his dimples appeared.
“I’m surprised Jungkook is wearing a costume – he almost never does,” Ayeong commented.
“He kind of stopped wearing them by the time we were in high school,” you said. “But this kind of party, plus a Thriller homage, is pretty on brand for him.”
“Oh, that’s who he’s supposed to be! I’m really bad at guessing all of these costumes.”
You and Taehyung stuck with Jimin and Ayeong, who introduced you to people you hadn’t met yet. Everyone was welcoming, but two hours in you were starting to feel a little overwhelmed by the crowds and the noise. There was also the fact that ever since Jungkook became aware of your presence, you’d felt his eyes on you. You’d hoped his neutral response to you at the park was progress, but you could feel his judgmental stare like a brand.
Every time you glanced over at him, his impassive expression was contradicted by some blazing emotion in his eyes. You reminded yourself that you’d known this would probably be a struggle – that Jungkook would likely be angry with you for leaving. Emmie had even said that no one mentioned your name to him anymore.
You’d just underestimated how much it would hurt.
___________________
Jungkook almost skipped Movie Night on the Quad because he was in a foul mood after the Musical Eras mixer. Seeing you there with Taehyung in your matching costumes had made him inexplicably angry, something Jin called him out on.
“Shouldn’t we be glad that she has good people in her life?” Jin asked him when he stomped around the kitchen the next day, slamming cabinets as he fixed a late breakfast.
“He’s right,” Jimin said. “Plus you know that she and Taehyung aren’t together, right?”
That made him pause. “They look like they’re together.” Fucking matching costumes and all, he thought viciously.
“They dated, but Ayeong said y/n told her it’s been a while since they were together like that. At least six months or so.”
“Who the hell follows their ex-girlfriend to another country? And buys a house?”
“If you took the time to get to know Taehyung, you’d understand that he feels like y/n saved his life. He’s committed to helping her with the ghost hunting because of that, but he also genuinely cares about her. So do Namjoon and Chloe,” Jin said. “They’re all good people.”
“Whatever,” Jungkook muttered, shoving cereal into his mouth.
“Forget it, Jin. He won’t admit the real problem, and we all know his anger default setting when it comes to y/n is because of that.”
“What is that supposed to mean?” Jungkook demanded.
“You’re jealous. You’ve always been jealous of anyone that got close to y/n,” Jimin replied calmly. He crossed his arms and sat back in his chair.
Jungkook grit his teeth. “I’m not jealous.”
“Really? So every time a guy expressed interest in dating her back in high school, and you very pointedly warned them all off, that was you just being what? A good friend?” Jimin rolled his eyes.
“Who? Like Lucas? You’re damn right I warned him off. He didn’t deserve her.”
“What about me?” Jimin asked, a challenge in his tone. “I told you that I liked her our sophomore year, and you shot down that idea so fast I was afraid if I pursued it, it would actually ruin our friendship.”
Jungkook stared at him, shifting uncomfortably. “Because you weren’t serious about it.”
“Says who? I was dead serious, Jungkook, and you know it. For that matter, I think even Lucas was serious about liking her. He never said a word about her that wasn’t totally respectful.”
“Yeah, because he knew I would beat his ass,” Jungkook said.
“You’re right – everybody knew that. Why do you think people steered clear of her? Why do you think Grace hated her so much? I told you that Grace wasn’t as nice as you thought she was. Yet you still held tight to y/n with one hand while you chased after Grace. And I figured it was just a matter of time until you realized how you really felt about y/n, so I let it go. But damn, Jungkook, you need to stop taking out your anger on y/n. Let her explain why she left.”
No one spoke for a moment. Then Jungkook asked, “Has she told you why?”
“I asked her,” Jin said. “But I think she’s waiting to talk to you first.”
Jungkook tried not to think about what Jimin said, but now that he was here on the quad, and you were just a few feet away, it was all he could think about. Jealousy.
He couldn’t deny he hated seeing how close you were to Taehyung. The way the other man touched you, or kept a protective arm around you, pissed him off. The way you smiled at him made him even angrier. Still, beneath the anger was something else – a yearning for the way things had been. No one had ever understood him the way you did, and he missed that connection with you.
It was his fault you left. That little voice in the back of his head kept reminding him that you weren’t the only one to blame for this vast distance between you now. He kind of understood why you’d left, but he didn’t know why it had taken you so long to return.
He kept stealing glances at you rather than watching the movie playing on the large screen set up on the quad. You’d been to the concession stand, and he wasn’t surprised to see you eating gummy bears since that had always been your favorite movie snack.
You looked pretty. Your hair was a little longer now than it had been in high school and fell in gentle waves around your shoulders. You wore another floaty little summer dress, the kind you had always liked, small feet encased in comfortable flat sandals. You and Taehyung had joined Jimin, Ayeong, Erin and Jin on a large blanket towards the front of the crowd.
Stubbornly, Jungkook had opted to sit with some of his friends from the baseball team. He was still close enough to watch you – to hear your voice – to just observe you while his mind sorted through his confusing thoughts and emotions. You had glanced over at him a few times, as if feeling his eyes on you, a silent question in your own. And somehow, he knew that you understood that he needed some time.
At the intermission between films, you went with Ayeong and Erin to the bathroom. Jungkook got tacos from a nearby food truck and when he returned, he noticed that you were the only one missing from the group. A few minutes later, Taehyung was frowning at his phone after making a call that had gone unanswered.
“I’m going to go check on her,” he heard the other man say as he stood up.
Jungkook hesitated for a few seconds before following him. Taehyung had his phone to his ear again, though again there seemed to be no answer.
“What’s wrong?” Jungkook asked as he caught up to him.
Taehyung turned and scowled at him. Then he sighed. “Ayeong said she stayed back because she got a call from her mom that she needed to answer. Maybe it’s nothing, but she’s been gone for almost twenty minutes, so I just want to make sure nothing happened.”
Jungkook nodded and then they were silent as they walked around the buildings that were still open. The campus was well lit, so it was easy to see the faces of people walking to the dorms or back to the quad. When they didn’t see you anywhere, Taehyung made another call.
“Chloe, I need you to ping y/n’s location and send it to my phone.” He listened for a minute. “Maybe nothing but I can’t find her and I don’t know – I’m getting a weird feeling. Okay, thanks.”
Taehyung’s unease was contagious, and Jungkook shifted from one foot to the other as they waited. Then Taehyung’s phone vibrated, and he studied his screen for a moment before gesturing for Jungkook to follow him. After walking for a few minutes, Jungkook realized they were heading towards a park where students often had lunch or relaxed between classes.
And there you were, a silent, ghostly figure swaying in the moonlight as you hummed a strange tune.
“Fuck.” Taehyung started running.
Jungkook was right behind him. When he reached you, he tried to take your arm to turn you towards them, but Taehyung stopped him.
“Don’t touch her,” he said, a note of warning in his tone. “She’s in a sort of fugue state, and it’s safer if she comes out of it herself.”
Rather than argue, Jungkook walked around to face you, but froze when he saw that your eyes were unfocused, and almost… glowing? It was clear that you didn’t see him, though he was standing right in front of you.
Jungkook’s heart was pounding now. “How do we make her do that?”
“There’s something else here,” Taehyung explained. “It probably tried to communicate with her. Sometimes, if she lets her guard down, or if the spirit is especially powerful, she gets sort of… pulled to the other side. It’s usually because they’re trying to show her something.”
Swallowing hard, Jungkook nodded. “Okay. How do we make her come out of it?”
“We can’t make her, and if we try, it can cause severe shock. She’ll already be in a state of shock when she comes to on her own, so we have to be careful. I’m going to go get the car. You wait here with her and just keep talking to her, okay?”
“Can I touch her hands?”
“Carefully,” Taehyung said. “Don’t pull her or shake her, and don’t try to make her move.”
“Okay.” Jungkook pulled his phone out of his pocket. “Jin, I need you to come to the park right now. The one behind the science building.”
You were still humming and swaying when Jungkook reached out to touch your hand. There was no response, so he carefully took both your hands in his.
“Jesus, your hands are freezing,” he said quietly. “You never dress right for being out at night. You know that you get cold even when it’s not that cold, right?”
He squeezed your hands carefully in an attempt to warm them up. There was no response from you, your eyes still fixed on something he couldn’t see.
A/N: I know it's been a long time since I posted, and I'm sorry about that. If you're still reading, I'll get the rest of the chapter up this week, and there is some fluff in the future as Jungkook and y/n start repairing their relationship. I hope I remembered all the people who asked to be tagged (and got the tags right.) If you’d like to be tagged for updates, let me know.

Law’s slender, soft, skilled fingers played over the silky material of my pyjama shorts. I wrapped my arms around his neck, softly brushing my fingers through his black hair. Our lips still pressed, our senses getting lost on the burning sexual tension that was finally being released.
The soon to be surgeon, slid a hand inside my satin blouse, and grabbed one of my breasts. Caressing it softly at first, but then searching for my nipple to press it firmly in between two fingers.  I moaned his name, almost whispering, after all we were in the kitchen of a house living with ten more people.
Law began to trace a path from my mouth to my neck with sweet wet smooches, mixed with little bites, and I was slowly being taken to heaven, until I heard “Saaaaanjiii, foood!”. I whipped my head to the side and saw Luffy entering the kitchen.
Law and I remained still for a moment, until we realized that this was one of Luffy’s sleepwalks for food. He was technically asleep so he wasn’t aware of us, but the minimum sound could wake him up. So, we gently detached our bodies in silence, until Law had to shout to Luffy to stop. My somnambulist friend was about to hit his face with the fridge door, and Law had to catch him in order to avoid him getting hurt.
I was arranging my clothes quickly when I saw Sanji coming downstairs running and screaming, “Damn Luffy, I heard you shouting my name, what happened?”. The blond cook was covered in sweat and had a little red spot on his neck. I giggled a little looking how annoyed he seemed, but hey, at least Law and I weren’t the only ones who were interrupted.
Luffy finally returned to reality after a few slaps from Sanji and apologized laughing. I couldn’t get mad at him; he is just too sweet. Sanji agreed on cooking something fast for him and began with his work.
“So, guys, what were you doing here?”, asked Luffy pointing at Law and I with his mouth full. I widened my eyes, while thinking for an excuse, but Law spoke first, “I couldn’t sleep, so I came to the kitchen to have some water. Y/n-ya was here having tea, and she offered to prepare some for me, that’s it”.  “Uhum, I couldn’t sleep either”, I said.
Luffy looked at us for a moment, but he quickly believed in our words.
Suddenly, we heard from the stairs Zoro’s sleepy voice, “Oi, nosebleed-kun I’m waiting…”. Law, Luffy and I turned our faces to Sanji, who instantly turned red. I bit my lips trying to stop myself from laughing, but when my eyes met Law’s face, we began to laugh out loud. This was the first time I saw Law laughing, my heart skipped a beat on how gorgeous he looked.
Luffy didn’t catch it at first, but after Zoro entered the kitchen with nothing more than his boxers on, the bell rang on his brain, “oh… hahahaha”.
“Marimo…”, said Sanji mumbling, “Go back to sleep…”. The one-eyed man was now standing still in front of us, probably unable to move, and blushed in his entirety. He simply said “We… we were playing with the Nintendo… uhm it was this idiot cook turn, so…. Uhm, whatever, I’m going back to sleep”. He turned around and almost ran upstairs.
We remained silent and the only sound we could hear was the sizzling sound of the eggs Sanji was cooking.
He turned his back at us and focused on the pan, he was clearly embarrassed, maybe a little sad because of us laughing.
Law stood up, told Luffy to go back to sleep and placed his hand over my shoulder, “Thanks for the tea, Y/n. We can continue our conversation tomorrow”. He said and smirked.
Those words made my body react instantly, a strike of pleasure stung my insides, and the idea of continuing what we’ve started that night installed on me, almost as a necessity.
“Sanji, go back to sleep, I’m sleeping with Luffy and the guys tonight, don’t worry”, said Law and left the room. Luffy followed him.
I waited for them to be upstairs and approached Sanji. “Oi, babe, I’m sorry I didn’t mean to laugh. I’m happy for you two, go back to him. Don’t worry, I’m not saying anything, nor Law, or even Luffy. I’m sure Law is now addressing Luffy at this point. If Zoro or you want to tell us, we will let you do it. Ok?”. I said to my favourite chef, placing my head over his shoulder.
Sanji caressed my hair and finally smiled back at me. “Thanks, Y/n-chan…”. He went upstairs and I put the dirty dishes on the dishwasher. Eventually I went back to bed, and the exhaustion won the fight between my insomnia.
The smell of breakfast made my stomach growl as I was waking up. “Mmm Sanji’s french toasts…”, I mumbled while opening my eyes and stretching my arms. “Good morning, Robin-chan”, I told my friend who had already woken up and was reading a book on her bed. “Good morning, sweetie, did you sleep well?”, she asked, and I nodded back.
Some sun rays were filtering through the big window of our room, we could see the beach and some sailboats on the distance. The sky showed no clouds, it was warm, some sakura petals danced with the breeze and fell to the ground. It was the perfect spring day.
We quickly got dressed and I didn’t even care much about my face. After breakfast I was taking a shower so, I didn’t put too much effort on my image. Robin and I went downstairs and met with the other ones in the kitchen.
Luffy was fighting with Usopp and Chopper for the food, as always. Law was drinking coffee and smiled at me when he saw me enter. Zoro was almost falling asleep over his plate, I guess he had a sleepless night after all… fufufu. Franky and Brook were outside having cola and milk, respectively.
Nami and Vivi come downstairs a few minutes after. Vivi hugged me from behind and scared me, and as she did, my hair uncovered my neck. “Oi, Y/n… what is that on your neck?”, she asked. “What? what do I have?” I started touching my neck in order to feel maybe something. “Is that a hickey?” inquired Nami, almost whispering. Luckily, no one else heard due to the guys fighting. “Nami, shut the hell up…” I sentenced my friend, with my index over my mouth.
“Damn Law, he must have bit me so hard yesterday that now I have a mark…” I thought while covering back my neck with my hair. Suddenly I received a message on my phone. @DrHeartStealer > I’m sorry ;). I looked up to Law and he was looking at me with puppy eyes, that by the way, were fake as hell. He was enjoying this… And I… well… I was kind of too.
“I think last night was a little bit turbulent, right Sanji? Law? Zoro?” Nami, who didn’t want to stop, and that obviously knew everything that happened the night before without even being told, mocked the guys.
“Shut up, baka”, Zoro told her, grabbing his forehead with no energy at all and perhaps affected by the lack of sleep and the hangover. Sanji was more blushed than last night, and Law didn’t show a single emotion, he seemed as if he didn’t give a single fuck about it.
Usopp who had now stopped fighting with Luffy, said “Oi… wait a minute, Sanji, what’s that on your neck?”. I realized Zoro was about to throw a plate at the big nose nosy guy, so I told Usopp to stop only using my expressions.
We finished eating breakfast and decided that today was the perfect day to visit Shinhwa Theme Park. I loved roller coasters and theme parks, so I was super excited to visit the place.
We went to our rooms to get ready when suddenly Nami and Vivi entered mine like a hurricane pouncing on me and demanding me to tell them why I had a hickey on my neck. I couldn’t refuse, so I accepted my destiny and told them of my encounter with Law last night.
Even Robin seemed excited, the girls were jumping and giggling. They were really happy for me, not only because Law seemed like a good catch, but also because it’d been so long since I dated someone.
My girlfriends decided to help me get ready for the park, so they brushed my hair, chose my outfit and even my makeup. I knew I didn’t need all of that, but frankly I enjoyed it, so I didn’t complain at all.
When we arrived at the park, the employees gave us little plastic bracelets and we headed to the first attractions.
I ran to the biggest roller coaster and insisted everyone to come with me, but almost all of my friends refused my invitation right away. “Are you kidding me, Y/n? there is no way I’m riding that huge thing, forget it”, said Usopp.
Luckily, Luffy, who loves new experiences and doesn’t know about fear, agreed on coming with me, as well as Franky. We headed to the short queue and waited for our turn. A few minutes after, Law, who was buying some water bottles when I asked the guys to join the ride with me, approached us saying, “Oi, can I join?”. “Of course, Torao!!” said Luffy, jumping with excitement.
When it was finally our turn, Franky sat with Luffy smirking at Law. “May I sit with you, Y/n-ya?", asked the sexy doctor. "Of course, if you are afraid, you can hug me …", I said, with a defiance expression. "Tsk.. we'll see who gets frightened first…".
“Welcome to the Dancing Oscar! Are you ready to experience extreme fun?! But first, let’s watch the safety rules!”, the safety video began to play on the little screens in front of us. Law and I were sitting behind Luffy and Franky, and as the video finished, he turned to me. “Well, let’s keep you safe…”, he said, coming even closer to my face. Law grabbed the safety restraints that were in between my legs first, caressing the inside of my thighs -that the girls insisted on me showing by using a cute short-, then the ones that were over my hips. He ably fastened them together in the buckle and pulled the belts in order to tighten them real hard. Finally, he tightened the ones over my breasts. I gasped, the pressure, the soft touch of his hands over my skin, the feeling of being taken care of, maybe… even being dominated by him… He was teasing me, and my body was reacting to it. “There, now you are safe”, he said patting my left thigh and smirking.
I closed my legs, pressing my core against the tight straps, mumbling something similar to a thank you.  I was desperate to feel some type of release, and the pressure over my pleasure point was the fastest way. Even though it wasn’t enough.
He secured himself and soon after the ride started.
When the cart slowly approached the highest point took about a minute to finally be released gaining speed faster that I was expecting. Not only me, but also Law, got so scared that we grabbed each other's arms and started shouting. Something flashed my eyes, but I was so scared that I didn’t even think of what it was.
After experiencing the adrenaline of the loops and the ups and downs of the track, it finally came to an end. When the cart finally stopped on the starting point, my heart was pumping harder than ever, my blood pressure was a mess, and my head was spinning. I began to laugh really hard, grabbing my stomach. “Oh, dear Lord, it was amazing!!!” I screamed, Luffy and Franky followed me, while Law looked at me regretting the moment he decided on hopping on. He was pale and seemed as if he were about to throw up.
“Law, are you ok?” I said chuckling. “I am…”. He answered and began to untie the belts.
When we were getting off the ride our friends came to us laughing. “Oi, Y/n, Torao, what is it with your faces? “said Usopp, showing us a photo with the theme park frame of Law and I looking at each other in fear, almost hugging, seconds after the cart began the falling action. “Oh… so that was the flash I saw”, I said while my cheeks turned to fire. Law snickered, grabbing the photo, and said “I’m keeping this one, your face is just too funny”. I looked at him frowning, but I couldn’t deny he was right, after all. Plus, him wanting to keep a photo of us made me feel all bubbly inside.
The day went by with us having fun, riding attractions, buying souvenirs, taking photos. Our cheeks were really sunkissed, as well as our shoulders. The night came, and we were ready to enjoy the firework show the park offered every night.
Everybody gathered in the centre of the park and the brilliant lights drew pretty images over the sky, the soft sea breeze refreshed my cheeks. My friends were smiling, having fun. I could see Zoro and Sanji looking at each other with a love expression on their eyes, Vivi and Nami holding hands, Robin placing her head over Franky’s shoulder. Love was in the air, and it felt wonderful.
I kept enjoying the light show, when suddenly Law approached me from in between the crowd and subtly grabbed my pinkie finger with his. Softly, without taking our sight from the fireworks, I grabbed his whole hand. And we remained like this, holding hands, with a smile on our faces. My heart beating quickly, and soon the feeling of butterflies in my stomach followed. “Is this… more than sexual attraction?” I thought, but quickly decided to stop thinking and simply indulge on the moment. 
The show ended and we let go of our hands. Our friends and we walked to the parking lot and headed back home.
We were so exhausted that we went right to our bedrooms and threw our bodies into our beds. Soon I had the idea of texting Law, and so I did. I grabbed my phone and sent him, “@SunflowerDr > have a good night, sleep well. Remember we got a “conversation” pending…xoxo.” A few minutes after he answered, “@DrHeartStealer > have a good night, doll. I got an idea for tomorrow, we could continue our conversation there…, sleep well”.
“Did he just call me “doll”?” I bit my lower lip wondering about his idea and my body burned in anticipation for the next day.
I passed out soon after until next morning.
The day seemed a little cloudier than the day before, and Nami, who was about to get her degree in meteorologic science, told us that probably a storm was coming to the island at night. So, we thought about a good plan for the day, and Robin suggested visiting “Manjanggul Lava Cave”. Jeju is a volcanic island and the lava flow from the volcanoes had created caves or “lava tubes” on certain places of the island that now are solidified. Who else could suggest visiting a cave more than our archaeologist friend?. We agreed on visiting the place and after breakfast, we quickly drove there.
We all submerged on the underground cold dark caverns. A little train inside the cave took us to the deepest point. Blue, purple, pink lights illuminated the stone pillars and stalactites that were widely spread through the tunnels.
“God, I’m kinda cold, aren’t you?” I said to Chopper who was walking next to me. “Yeah, that’s why I told you to bring a jacket, dummy”, he said to me and was about to give me his jacket when Law appeared from behind saying “Don’t worry Tony-ya, I’m a little hot. Here, take my jacket Y/n-ya”. He took off his black coat and put it on over my shoulders.
Chopper giggled a little and told us that he would be going ahead to take some pictures of a specific rock called the “Stone Turtle”.
We were left alone once again. The ambrosial scent of his coat invaded my senses, a sweet perfume with notes of tangerine, ginger and perhaps a little amber mixed with some marine breeze was the perfume Law probably used every day. I revelled on the smell and kept walking in silence next to him.
Suddenly a few bats appeared flying from a dark spot and I got scared as hell, so I jumped over Law. He held me tight to avoid us falling.  “Don’t worry, they won't hurt you, I read at the entrance that some rare animals live in the tunnel, such as these bats”, he said to me with a calming voice while grabbing me tight in between his arms.
I looked up to him with a pouty face and he smiled at me with cuteness. I wished we could have stayed like that a long, long time, but sadly Usopp, Brook and Chopper came running, escaping from more bats chasing them. “Ahhh get away!!!”, “Ruuuuuun for your liiiiveeees”, “Robin where the hell did you bring us?, yohohoho”. (The bats were obviously being chased by Luffy…).
We separated as my terrorized friends passed in between us. And began to laugh as they kept running to where Nami was. That only meant one thing… a few bumps on their head.
A few minutes after, Sanji started asking us if we had seen Zoro. Of course, we haven’t, he was lost once again. On a big cave, full of tunnels that were almost a kilometre long each.
We spent almost half an hour searching for Zoro, until Robin found him. “Marimo, you have no sense of direction!! I told you not to separate from us!!”, shouted Sanji to the green hair boy, trying to cover how worried he was for him. “Oi, idiot cook, I didn’t get lost, you did!”.
We finally left the cave and returned to the surface. Outside it was warmer enough for us to head to our next destiny, the Sanbangsan mountain hot springs. We only had to drive a few kilometres to get there.
The girls and I were pretty much excited because we could show off our new bikinis, so we got changed into them and headed to the natural pools of thermal water. The boys were already inside, enjoying the warm bubbly water.
“Look at these sexy ladies!, wanna be our friends?” said Franky joking around while helping Robin to enter the pool.
A few beads of sweat ran through my back, but I didn’t know if I was feeling hot due to the steamy water or because of the image of Law half naked, exposing his whole tattooed chest, with his head thrown back, eyes closed and his hair wet.
I fixed my eyes on his anatomy, the well-defined abs, the tattoos on his arms, how his fingers played with the water around him.  I dreamt with open eyes of how I wanted to travel with my tongue all over his tanned skin, every little mark he had, any spot.
Law opened his eyes, and still with his head thrown back, gave me the sexiest look accompanied with a little laugh, “heh”.
If we were alone I might have jumped over his lap and fucked him right there.  “Oi, Y/n!!”. A voice pulled me out of my dreaminess. “What is it Nami?” I asked my friend who was flailing me by my arm. “You two should go and fuck right now, we are getting a little bit uncomfortable with all of that sexual tension you both have”, reprimanded me my redhaired friend. “Shut up…”.
We stayed there chatting and relaxing more than two hours, the sun was setting, and the cloudy sky showed precious colours.
I decided that I should go take a shower to rinse the sodium out of my skin on the community showers of the complex. I had planned the way I was going to stand up, trying to show my “sexy ass” to Law, for the last half hour.  So, I executed my plan almost perfectly… and said almost because when I decided to walk looking at Law over my shoulder I slipped with some sort of slippery substance on the rocks. I almost felt but while trying to keep balance I got a sprained ankle.
Law and Chopper ran to save me, as the good future doctors they were, but I wished I had killed myself. The embarrassment invaded my body… damn.
“You only have a sprained ankle, Y/n-ya, don’t worry with some ice and ibuprofen you’ll be good in no time”, said Law softly examining my ankle.  My eyes were teary, my cheeks red and everyone was trying to hold their laughter. Vivi approached us and told Torao to bring me home first, so I could put some ice there, and as she said so she winked an eye at me. Damn Vivi, she knew me more than anyone there. I realized that   I have created unintentionally the perfect excuse to be alone at last with Law, and she was helping me.
Robin brought me a towel and I tried to stand up, but my foot hurt more than I thought, “Auch, auch, auch…”. Law didn’t hesitate and carried me in his arms bridal style to his car.
“Be careful, don’t hit your head”, Law said while helping me sit on the front seat of the yellow car. I wasn’t speaking, I was too embarrassed to even say thank you.
He started the car and began to drive down the mountains through the winding road. Ahead, a breath-taking landscape was shown. The sun slowly disappeared in between the mountains, and the lights of the city defined the coast. The sky was now fully covered in stormy clouds, and a few lightings began to show in between the menacing cumulonimbus above us.
“Finally, alone”, said Law breaking the silence. I looked how focused on the road he was, worshiping his profile, the piercings on her ear, the muscles on his neck. I plucked up courage and asked, “do you still have the idea you told me yesterday over text?”. “I do, plans might have changed a little, but I think we could still make it, do you trust me?”, he said.
I wanted to know about what was going to happen, but the thrill of it being a surprise, letting him lead the way made me accept right away, “I do, lead the way doctor”.
We finally arrived at the city and the surgeon parked the car without turning the engine off. He grabbed his phone and searched something. The GPS immediately began to give directions to a specific address, so he got back to driving. “Wait a second, do you want something special?, I’m buying you some anti-inflammatories for your ankle”. “Oh thanks, uhm nothing else” I told him while he unfastened his seat belt and got out of the car.
Some minutes later, he handed me the analgesics and a bottle of water. While drinking from the bottle I could see from the corner of my eye how he quickly put away something on the glove box.
I was still using my bikini and a towel to cover me, so I asked Law if he could help me reach my bag from the back seat to put on a dress. He agreed and passed me the backpack, and then helped me put the dress. He also put on a clean shirt over his swim shorts.
“Are you hungry? What about a spontaneous dinner date?”, he said rubbing his thumb over my cheek. I smiled, satisfied, because after all his plans weren’t simply fucking. “Do you prefer something fancy or something more private?, I’m not trying to be cheap, it’s just that if we decide to go somewhere fancy we should come back home to get dressed properly”. Even if I were dressed like a princess I wouldn’t have chosen the “fancy” restaurant.  Truth was that I didn’t want to waste any time, I didn’t want more interruptions, I wanted to be alone with him.
“I prefer something more private. We can go to this place on the beach, it isn’t luxurious, but I saw some photos on my phone”, I said to him while searching for the place web page on my phone. He smiled while looking at the screen of my cell phone. He seemed happy with my choice, and I could see why. He was a quiet and reserved man, so this place was perfect for our “first date”.
We drove to the location and left the car on the parking lot next to the pretty little restó. The intensity of the pain in my ankle was now pretty low so I was able to walk normally. Law, though, told me he would help me and grabbed my arm, so we walked together at the entrance.  I don’t know if it was because of my sprained ankle or simply just an excuse for physical contact. In any case I was happy about it.
A maître that reminded me of Sanji welcomed us inside and took us to a little table next to the sand over a wooden deck with warm yellow lights strips, garnishing the also wooden roof.  In the distance, over the horizon, the moon was vaguely peeping through the stormy clouds. Nami’s predictions for tonight seemed to be a few hours away to come true.
A tall, slim waitress came to us and asked if we had already chosen our food, without taking her eyes off Law. She was clearly trying to flirt with him, and I was burning inside… I got jealous, really jealous. Yet I couldn’t say anything, after all this was our first date. Law calmly gazed at me and told the maiden “My beautiful girlfriend and I will have two bowls of bulgogi”. Wait, what?... beautiful girlfriend?...
The waitress gave me a dirty look and walked away. “Ha, suck it, he is mine!”. I thought and giggled. I preferred not to ask about him calling me “his girlfriend”, but instead I changed the topic. We chatted a little bit about our careers, specialities and about surgery. Despite the unfriendly appearance he radiates, talking to him was easy, I felt as if I have known him for years.
We finished our plates and decided to leave the place. He opened the car door for me and helped me to get inside. To be honest I had forgotten about my injured ankle at that point, but he was still taking care of me in a chivalrous way. Mr. Donquixote raised him well…
“Let’s go to the beach”, he said in an adventurous tone. The storm was then over us and at any moment the rain could start, so I told him, a little confused, “It’s about to rain, are you sure?”. “I am, trust me. You won’t get wet… at least not for the rain”, he said smirking. I squirmed a little with those words, he sounded so sexy…
He drove along the boulevard next to the beach. Suddenly, he parked the car. “We are here, let’s go”, he said. He held my hand and softly pulled me leading the way through a little path over the sand made out of wood.
The path led to the entrance of an old lighthouse. A few raindrops began to wet my cheeks when we got to the entrance of the beacon. “What is this place, Law?” I asked him, curious. “My grandfather was in charge of this lighthouse some years ago, then the government built a more modern beacon on the port of Jeju, so my grandfather retired. Yet the commune decided to maintain it as part of the city, and also because I guess my grandad was appreciated by the people of Jeju.” I saw a copper commemorative plaque with the name “In loving memory of Mr. Trafalgar Law”. “You have the same name, how cute…” I told him as he opened the door, and we entered the place to take shelter from the cold rain that started pouring over us.
He asked me to wait at the entrance and headed to the back part of the place. He turned on the lights and I could see how the place had been decorated with string lights, pillows on the floor, some blankets, and a few candles that he began to light one by one. He did this just for me?...
“I… I hope you like it. I don’t know if you are really into romantic stuff. The guys helped me yesterday, while you went to sleep”.  My eyes got somehow a little bit watery, no one has ever made anything remotely similar to this for me, it was just perfect.  “I love it, Law. This is so perfect…”, I said and ran to him -my ankle did hurt a little, but I didn’t really care -. “Careful…” he said, receiving me with open arms.
I softly planted a kiss on his lips, and slowly we sat over the pillows. He grabbed my face with his hands and stopped kissing me just to look into my eyes. My back slowly approached the pillows and now I was laying there with Law settled over me...
