Meetings
28 weeks down, 12 more to go. Haleigh was excited yet anxious. It was nice to share her thoughts and feelings with someone other than her best friends and family. She loved them but they always poked and prodded about how she was feeling about her baby's sperm donor. She understood that they cared about her well being but she didn't want to always talk about that. Ardian, however, never really asked about him. It was as if he didn't exist to Ardian and that was more than okay with Haleigh.
A few days ago while she was at Ardian's house, after he talked to his grandmother he told her that he would be gone for a few days so he could go pick a package up from her and see his family. He expected her to be playfully upset as she usually was when she didn't talk to him longer than usual which was nothing more than six or seven hours. What he didn't expect was the tears, honestly she hadn't expected them either. Both chalked it up to her hormones. Regardless of the origin of the tears, Ardian insisted that she come with him and she didn't fight it so here he was waiting in the living room for her so they could leave.
"You and baby boy alright in there?" He yelled getting concerned.
A giggle was the first thing Ardian heard. "Yeah, we're okay! Forgot to pack my toiletry bag!"
"Alright, Hae. Just checkin." He yelled back.
Hearing the doorbell go off, Haleigh asked Ardian to get it for her figuring if it was someone she didn't know, he would handle it. Ardian opened the door, coming face to face with one of the big men from the gender reveal he remembered to be her father. He groaned inwardly halfway wanting the ground to swallow him up right then.
Roman stared at the young man, only a hint of a smile on his face. "Who are you and where is my princess?"
"Ardian, sir. Just a friend," he responded stepping aside for the bigger man to walk in, "She's in the bathroom."
Roman looked around as he made his way to the living room, knowing Ardian was behind him. He smiled as he took a seat in the big recliner just as Ardian was sitting back in his spot on the sofa. .
"You're the new friend she's had around. She likes having you around ... a lot. And that also means that your absence will hurt her ... a lot." Roman spoke in an even tone, stroking his beard. "And if that happens, I'm gonna hurt you ... a lot."
Ardian nodded, rubbing his hands over his knees. "I understand. This friendship is on her terms, I'm here as long as her and baby boy want me to be. I'm not a bad guy, I frown a lot but not a bad guy."
"I hear you and I wanna believe you but the last person I had this conversation with lied to me and when I get my hands on him," Roman paused to lock his jaw and squeeze his fists tight. He slowly relaxed after a few seconds. "But I'll take you at your word for now, Ardian."
Again, he nodded mumbling a yes sir.
"She's seven months pregnant with my grandson so I don't need to tell you about the precious cargo you're about to have in your car for this trip. Take care of them both, I want them both back the way they left. Understood?"
"Yes sir. Of course. They're always safe with me."
Roman hummed at his words. "And if I can offer advice."
Ardian's brows raised. "Sure, anything you wanna share."
"Get her food before you get on the highway, halfway there and a soon as you get there." He chuckled.
Ardian nodded with a chuckle of his own. Both men got up from their seats, Roman shook his hand holding it in a tight grip and stared in his eyes.
"If things go any way but right with Princess, I'll be the least of your worries. Rezar is a big man but he's no match for Tasha." Roman slowly started to smile at the look of shock and confusion on the younger man's face. "Next time you talk to your parents, tell your dad he still owes me from beating him in 2K."
Before Ardian could respond, Roman let his had go and turned away just as Haleigh entered carrying her small pouch. She squealed softly as she hugged her father.
"Daddy! What you doing here?"
He kissed her head and turned so he could see his daughter and Ardian. "Wanted to come check on you and drop these clothes off your mama bought. You two about to head out?"
"Yup, Daddy. Oh, Daddy, this is Ardian. Ardian, this is my Daddy." Her smile became infectious, both men gave genuine smiles. "He's my friend."
"Yeah so he told me. We had a good little chat. Isn't that right, Ardian?" Roman asked slapping Ardian's back.
Ardian coughed, wincing at the slight pain in his back. "Yeah, we did, sir."
"Daddy," Haleigh laughed softly, "You hit him too hard. I'm sorry, Ardian. Daddy and my brother don't realize how hard they hit sometimes."
"I'm okay, Hae. My dad is heavy handed too."
Roman smiled at the mention. "You two go on so you're on schedule, I'll lock up the house, Princess."
Haleigh hugged her father again and let him feel baby boy kick before the two left.
Getting into the city, Ardian took Haleigh to his Uncles' restaurant restaurant to get something to hold her over for dinner. Getting inside, Ardian looked around smiling he had missed this place. Reaching for Haleigh's hand, he held it tight as he walked her through to behind the register. He snuck up behind his aunt wrapping his arms around her.
"Boy! I almost hit you! I didn't know you were coming," She laughed turning to hug him tight. When she pulled away from the hug, her eyes landed on Haleigh and her belly. She hit her nephew's arm. "Boy, you got a baby on the way and didn't tell nobody! I'm gon beat you!"
Haleigh and him laughed as he tried to dodge her hits.
"No, Auntie. This is my friend, Haleigh and her baby boy. Hae, this is my Auntie Monique. " He smiled rubbing her belly. "Yeah, lil man you know you about to eat huh?"
Haleigh smiled, waving at her trying to ignore her baby kicking and Ardian talking to him. "Nice to meet you."
Monique looked between the two smirking. "Nice to meet you as well, Haleigh. You're very pretty."
Haleigh blushed. "Thank you. So are you."
"Thank you. Come on to the back, Tyrell and Ray wanna see you two I'm sure."
Going to the kitchen, Miniseries found her husband and brother in law talking amongst each other. She cleared her throat gaining their attention. Both men looked from Ardian to Haleigh and her belly.
"What's up, nephew? This must be Haleigh." Tyrell said, smiling. "Nice to meet you, Haleigh."
Ray nodded making brief eye contact with his wife then Ardian. "What's up, Haleigh? Nephew."
Haleigh waved still holding onto Ardian's hand. "Hey. Nice to meet yall. It smells good in here."
"I bet baby boy been kicking since we walked in," Ardian joked putting his hand back on her belly. "Wanted to stop to see yall before we go to Grandpa and Grandma house. Plus, baby boy was ready to eat."
Tyrell and Ray made eye contact, Tyrell chuckled.
"We'll make yall some plates to take with you." Ray offered watching them. "Haleigh, go with Mo so you can look at the menu real quick. Ardian, you stay here and help us."
Haleigh pouted at the mention of having to leave Ardian's side but nodded anyway. She heard Ardian his as she was leaving the kitchen with Monique and knew he either got hit or pinched which made her giggle. She stood beside Monique looking at the menu humming softly.
"You have a pretty voice," Monique said softly. "I bet baby boy loves to hear it already."
"Thank you. He does, it puts him to sleep unless he's super hyper."
"When does he get super hype?"
Haleigh looked up from the menu laughing. "When I have too many sweets or when Ardian's talking to him or rapping to him."
Monique raised a brow smiling. "Ardian raps to him?"
"Yeah, it's either silly stuff or songs he says your husband likes."
"If you don't mind me asking, where's baby boy's father?"
She sighed at the mention then shrugged. "Last I saw on Instagram he's out partying with the other NFL fuck boys. Sorry sorry. You remind me of my Auntie Apryl and she doesn't care if I cuss. Sorry."
Monique laughed waving her off. "Girl, it's okay. I understand. So you two aren't together? Just coparenting? He's okay with Ardian being around?"
"We're not together, no ma'am. Not co parenting either." She said with a chuckle. "He'd have to be around to care about Ardian being around or even know he's around."
"Oooooh he left?"
"Yup. Told him I was pregnant and keeping it, he was gone when I woke up the next morning." She explained going back to the menu. "He sent me money probably a week after that just in case I changed my mind about keeping him. That was it."
Monique felt bad for asking and angry at the way Messiah had same her at the same time.
"Its his loss. He'll regret it." Monique watched her for a moment. "My nephew's been really great help huh?"
"He has been a blessing. Baby boy likes having him around already." She laughed finally looking up. "Ardian seems to like being around too. I hope so at least."
"He does. I know my nephew, he wouldn't be around if he didn't." Monique took note of the twinkle in Haleigh's eyes. "What about you? You like him? Having him around I mean."
"I do. I do like having him with me. He's really amazing," she said rubbing her belly. "Glad he was at my gender reveal."
"I'm sure. So all three are happy with things, good. When's your baby shower?"
"Well since I'm due in 12 weeks, my sister in law said she planning for two weeks before that. She won't tell me the theme or anything. But I'm excited."
"Make sure you invite us, we're family now and I wanna come." Monique smiled. "You thought of any names yet?"
"Thought of? Yes. Made a choice? No." She laughed.
"You've got time to think. I'll let your finish looking at the menu and get you some water."
"Oh no thank you," Haleigh smiled. "I'm not thirsty."
Monique raised a brow, looking down at her ankles and back up. "Your ankle are swollen. You need water and you're gonna drink water."
Not waiting for a response, Monique walked off to get the water. She could definitely tell Monique was related to Ardian. Haleigh chuckled softly to herself going back to the menu. Her mind started to wonder what Ardian and his Uncles were talking about and if his grandparents would like her.

Here’s my demon dog for good measure
Haleigh; first thing first, thank you for the dog I fucking love it (LOOKS SO DAMN CUTE, I WANNA BOOP). Well, you know the drill: I think you’re one of the smartest and more eloquent people on this god forsaken thing, and I feel honoured to be able to talk to you, let alone be friends and mutuals. I told you already that I think you’re very cute and I love your tattoos (of course), but I also admire you for the way that you are upfront with yourself and everyone in hear: you never let yourself fall prey of bait and you have confidence in the fact that you are a splendidly realised woman, who draws well and writes even better, who preaches and follows her own advice, who knows what’s up - who is confident because she made herself and besides your fears, I think you’re just fucking inspiring. You’re realised. You’re friendly. You’re easy to get along with. I envy you a little, because you’re witty and funny, without trying and I kinda want your brain.
mutuals send me a 🍓 and I’ll compliment you

As someone who has experienced neglect, and witnessed some horrible family situations that take about ‘Natsuo complains the most and had it the easiest’ pisses me off so much! He has witnessed some horrible events in his childhood such as his mother’s screams/Shouto’s cries and Touya would go crying to him at night. He has every right to be angry, and he suffered in that house too! Like @haleigh-sloth has some really good advice on those takes, and child psychology! I would advice asking her of your ever confused or need an input!
Hi anon 😊 yes that take seriously pissed me off too, I personally relate very much to Natsuo and to some extent Touya. So when I see people brushing off neglect, like some of these people do it pisses me off! I think it’s down to the fact that they either think neglect or emotional abuse isn’t as serious as physical abuse, or that physical abuse is the ONLY abuse there is.
So, therefore in their eyes because Natsuo wasn’t being physically abused like Shouto, and he didn’t have to play parent like Fuyumi. He had it the “easiest”! Ignoring the fact that he was neglected by Endeavor, he witnessed the horrible events like you said his mother’s screams and Shouto’s cries and then he had to witness his eldest brother’s distress as he came to him at night to cry and question his existence. I’m not a professional or smart on child psychology or even adult psychology, but you can tell these event, including Touya’s death have affected Natsuo, so to say he had it “easiest” and that he “complains the most” is bull crap! Yes, I actually follow that blog you just tagged, and agree with so much of what they say! They actually replied to an ask that had mentioned Natsuo just a few minutes or hours ago, and I think I’m going to take their advice! I’ve already deactivated my Twitter, and with TikTok if I see anything that involves BNHA I’m just going to scroll!

Fixing It (AU)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Empty houses. No music playing. No sounds of King crying. No messes to be cleaned. No yelling at the top of their lungs. Full trays of cupcakes. They had nobody to bake for anymore. Everybody pissed at them and rightfully so.
Kandice and Tasha were starting to feel the weight of their actions. They thought they were right in how they were feeling. They also thought everybody would be on their side. Their husbands were on their side but they wasn't getting yelled at like they were.
Tasha was staring in Ardian's empty room something she did on a daily basis when she heard a soft knock. Sighing softly she headed downstairs to answer it. Looking through the peephole she gave a small smile seeing Kandice. Unlocking the door she greeted the other woman and invited her in. Kandice looked around the empty house and gave Tasha a sad smile.
"How you doing?"
Kandice asked softly sitting on the sofa. Tasha sat across from her and ran a hand through her curly hair.
"I feel like everybody has turned against us. Ardians room is completely empty. He took everything."
"I know how you feel. I go to Hae's room and its like she was never there. I miss them."
"I do too. This is our fault we wasn't the best mother's. We threw them into a damn body of water and told them to sink or swim. They swimmed right on out."
"I uh, I got yelled at by Daddy. He is not happy with us. Your Mama didn't even yell and she made me feel small."
Tasha chuckled.
"I got yelled at by both my parents. I'm not used to getting yelled at by them. They told me give them time."
"I was told the same thing. Tasha we was trying give them tough love but what the hell was we giving them?"
"I think we was being assholes. We was thinking about our feelings. Didn't help when King was in the hospital and we still kept going."
"You think they miss us?"
"They act like they don't. They act like they don't need us."
Both mothers looked at each other sadly.
"How do we fix this?"
Kandice required and Tasha shrugged.
"I guess we take it one day at a time. You hungry?"
"I haven't had much of an appetite since the kids left but yeah I am."
Tasha nodded grabbing her purse and keys.
"Don't make sense to cook. I treat us to dinner. I hope we can find a way to fix our relationship with our kids."
"We're mothers, we always find a way."
Kandice and Tasha left and drove down to the local diner where they ate and for the first time in a while laughed. They were still hurting but they was going to take their parents advice just give Ardian and Haleigh time.
AN: Angst. Sucks. Sorry.

Recap of Ika’s IG Live June 15, 2019
Ika did about an hour long IG live and saved it. But figured I’d put this here for future reference and in case someone can’t watch for whatever reason. Mostly was general chit chat, she was in a good mood. 
She’s doing her makeup so she figured she’d do a live. She likes the smaller lives so she can be herself.
Her hair is getting healthy again, they keep cutting off the relaxed pieces so they’ll eventually be gone completely.
Ika just watched part two of the swayleigh documentary. She mentions that Swaggy and Bay contacted her asking if she would be part of the video. They sent her a long message asking and she didn’t want to – not because she doesn’t like them or believe in them, but because she didn’t think the project was a good idea, she thought it would only bring more haters. In the end she thinks the product was really good and is glad they did it. She actually didn’t respond to the message right away because she wanted to respond appropriately and time kept passing, she felt so bad. Bay and Swaggy really respect her nad vice versa; they always reach out for advice.
She figures she might as well answer the questions that Swaggy asked her to answer. So he asked what her first impression of Swaggy was. She says extra. She feels as if she let him down because she wants to bring out all sides of people and she couldn’t get the softer side out of him. But it was the first interview of the day. She also thought he was too loyal to a fault, and that would be his downfall.
Her first impression of Bayleigh was that she gave her upperclass, black, like Uncle Phil and Ashley vibes, debutant vibes; someone who was raised well, has a great family. Extra a bit, but sweet. Ika never thought her and Swaggy would get together, didn’t think they’d be compatible; Ika also got the vibe that Swaggy was more into white girls.
After Swaggy got evicted, he and Ika spoke and she knew he respected her opinion, and she grew to like him as a person. She doesn’t agree with everything he puts out, but he’s a good person. She also sees Bay and Swaggy as kids, they’re younger.
Ika says she has a regret with Bayleigh. During the season Bay was telling a story about Ika’s time on season two and it was off. Ika saw the clip and the fans reaction and took it the wrong way and got mad. But afterwards Ika realized that she didn’t mean it that way, she wishes she could take back being so upset at that time. Swaggy reached out and asked if everything was okay, he didn’t get upset that she wasn’t loving Bay and that meant a lot.
She’s glad they were able to get things off their chest and tell their story. It hurts her to see them get hate, because they’re kids trying to live their lives. Ika says at their age she didn’t have it as together as they do, but they’re still young. She also loved seeing Bay’s family take Swaggy in, he’s good for her family and vice versa.
Ika notes that she’s grown a lot too and she doesn’t want to use her platform to tear someone down when everyone else is already tearing them down, it’s easy to do that but she doesn’t want to, she wants to stand her ground.
She hopes that Haleigh and Fessy can work things out with Swayleigh, there seems to be a lot of hurt there and sometimes you just don’t know how to handle situations.
Ika notes that Swaggy had no chill when calling out people. Also notes that everyone is thirsty, the internet is about attention, even her doing lives. “There’s a difference between being thirsty… some are real parched. Some are dehydrated.” There are levels. She notes that there are people who do nothing on their season and then try to be a bad bitch online. They’re thirs-ty. Then there’s cringe. They think they’re something special, she never wants that. Then you have the parched, “they’re in the desert, the thirst cannot be quenched. I’m watching this and never knew that was a level.” Some thirst is more bearable than others. She even says looking back, she thinks her and Dem were cringe with lives sometimes, so everyone is guilty on different levels, but she never wants to be on the parched level. She sees people being thirsty that we don’t even see.
After BB it’s a whole new experience learning about things and she’s able to pick up on things differently. She’s so cautious about hanging out with BB people because of this sometimes. It takes energy to be around people and have to watch everything you say so it’s easier to stay away. Notes she had a great time hanging with Este and Anthony, and maybe she’ll be more open with hanging with others. She doesn’t talk about others, if she hears something, “I’ll tell Demetres, but that’s a given. It’s Demetres, and he doesn’t tell anyone anything.” But most people aren’t like that so she’s always worried about what she may have said to someone who may spread or twist it. That is why she tends to keep to herself.
BB21 interviews. She wants some really good questions to ask the HGs, outside the box ones. Send them on her last IG pic or on twitter, her DMs are too full. “It’s two years later and y’all still have my DMs looking crazy. I feel so special.”
Someone asks about youtube. She says they are going to put out a video, they will. She says when Dem first moved there, no one told them there was an adjustment period. He was now in a new city, they were living together for the first time in this situation, it was so hard. Dem was having a really hard time adjusting to Toronto for the first few months. He would wake up in the worst mood, putting her in the worst mood, and she would get annoyed that he was bringing her down. But he couldn’t help but feel that way, and she didn’t understand how big of a deal moving to Toronto was. He had no friends, no family, it’s a new city, it’s big, there’s a lot of money in it but it’s hard to make money in it. “I think he loves money a little more than me. Actually no, if he did he would have stayed in Edmonton, so I do think he loves me more than money. But we’re pretty much up there together!” He’s always seen a certain kind of life for himself, and he didn’t know how he would be able to provide for them and make that life for them that he had in his mind. “After we sat and talked and I really heard what he was saying, this guy was carrying the pressure of moving here.” She notes Toronto is huge, you have to learn the different pockets, meet different people, etc.
You are making more on commission in Toronto but you’re also giving out a lot more money. He also had his business in Alberta that he had to dissolve. He was really worried how they were going to live this life he envisioned, and it was all on his shoulders and it was so hard. She was just looking at how miserable he was and how miserable he was making her by being miserable, she wasn’t looking at all the pressures he had. He was a little depressed, he was sad for a while and that was really hard to talk about. So when it comes to youtube, it was hard to film when they were going through that as a couple and they didn’t want to tell us at that time.
Ika notes that Dem is past that period, he’s doing really well, he’s with a new team, he’s doing amazing. “So then we were in the mindset that if you don’t work on your relationship, it can go left real fast and we wanted to take the time to focus on that.” She notes that they did miss youtube, they have fun with it and us. They know that they will have to give an explanation and they didn’t feel comfortable being honest yet, “saying we were over here really going through it, it was so hard. But being honest is the best way, you can’t be perfect all the time.” “It was a really hard period, but not he’s a lot more confident, he’s selling places, he’s getting clients. And Demtres is crazy because he’s been here for six months and only licensed for four months, and this guy is already killing it. And he thinks he’s doing so bad. I don’t think he gets that there’s like 52k realtors in Toronto and half of them are barely working, and you got here with no friends, no family and you’re killing it. It’s crazy. But that’s just Demetres. He’s just really hard on himself. He’s not the average worker, he’s crazy. He’ll make any hard worker feel lazy.”
They’ll do a video and touch on it.
Reminds people to send her some real good questions for bb21. And tell her what you like and don’t like from past interviews. She wants unique stuff. The role playing can be funny but so awkward.
She notes that if you’re on bb you have to be fake and phony sometimes, and if you don’t do it, it will be really hard for you.
She goes on a rant about people who don’t fake cry when she asks them to, all she wants is the content but they go on and on about how they won’t have to, but they just ruined what she needs and now she needs to figure out how to get good content ET and fans will like.
She notes that interviewing the bbcan HGs was hard, they wouldn’t let loose and give her content, they were concerned with their image. But Sam was not that way, which is why she really likes Sam. She gave her energy and content, “she saved my job.” Her interviews do play into how she feels about people all season long.
She ends the live because Dem called, so she wants to call him back.

BB20 AS A SLASHER FLICK: PART 3
Part 2
Bay and Hay were rummaging through the closet trying to choose a cute outfit for both the upcoming spirit day and for some accessories to wear during the homecoming game. Plus Hay wanted to prepare for Rachel’s party later that night. Luckily it wasn’t too hard; all the juniors had to wear blue.
A knock on the bedroom door. Apparently Haleigh has a visitor.
The two of them head downstairs to find Rockstar shooting the breeze with Scottie of all people. Scottie. How the hell did he find out my address? Haleigh thought to herself. She had only moved in days ago. Apparently he lived a bit down the street from them and he only put two and two together from the minivan that normally rode from the intersection while Scottie was on his bike. His mom has been begging him to get out of the house, so lo and behold, he showed up. Bay urges them to head back upstairs to Haleigh’s room. Way to break the ice.
Most of the night was spent with cute moments: the girls doing each other’s nails, Scottie trying out different bandanas, and the three of them randomly acting out scenes from Moana. Scottie then asks the two of them for some advice. Apparently he’s noticed a guy has been staring at him with particular interest for quite a while, but it wasn’t until earlier in the day during gym that he started getting worried. When asked who it was, he wearily admits that it’s Brett. A wave of shock passes through the room. Bay had always thought that he was just some douche. Haleigh barely knew the guy, but she agreed and told him that it’s bad news. Scottie had a different experience:
He had just stepped out of the showers after a long day running laps. He was about to open his locker when-
“Scottie! My man!”
He turns around and hears an arm slam into the lockers next to him. He locked eyes with a near naked Brett, sweat dripping down his torso, the stench of toxic masculinity in the air. He glared at the other freshmen who were changing that period, a sign telling them to beat it.
He then crawled closer to him, cautiously doing a double take to watch for any bystanders. “Do you wanna... talk?” he asked sheepishly.
Talk? They had absolutely nothing in common.
“It’s just that I see you around sitting alone, keeping to yourself, and I want you to have some fun. How about coming with me to Rachel’s party?”
Scottie was paralyzed. He didn’t know whether to laugh, cry, cheer because someone popular was talking to him, or slap him across the face.”I-”
“Maybe we can talk later? After practice tomorrow?”
He made a few small nods.
“Thanks. You’re a good kid. But don’t tell anybody we made eye contact, okay?”
Scottie could only stare at his ass as he walked away.
“He seemed... oddly nice,” he finished. “It just felt very out of character because normally he’d be roaring around the hallways like Wreck-It-Ralph.”
Bay doesn’t believe a word he says; she thinks it’s a trap and he’ll take him to Winston and Rachel and they’ll embarrass him in front of the entire student body. Haleigh says otherwise: “You’ll never know unless you try.” Scottie thinks it’s crazy. But at the same time he does wonder what would happen if he did talk to Brett the next day. He just didn’t seem... like himself.
Bay checked her phone to find several alerts on her Facebook page. Apparently they found JC. Skewered through the head. Two deaths in the school in the course of the week? Haleigh assured her friends that things will be fine and that the police will catch the killer sooner or later. I mean, who else out of the junior class would have a vendetta against both him and Angela?
Somewhere in a different area in town, Sam finished a prayer in front of the altar and made the sign of the cross. She slowly rose to exit, retied a small gauze wrapped around her hand and closed the door, the quiet slam echoing through the hall.
(i wish i had haleigh’s misguided optimism)

Dry desert heat threatens to strangle Haleigh the moment she steps out of her air-conditioned car; bright sun shines down on her relentlessly as she squints at her surroundings.
“Wow, this place really loses its charm in the light of day, huh?” she drawls.
She’s only ever visited this abandoned corner of town at night, when the streets are lit by the brightly colored headlights, and bass heavy music vibrates underneath her feet. Now all she sees is garbage and the remnants of a past life. The place is an absolute ghost town, like everyone just disappeared without a moment’s notice, now the only people who come here are street racers and the city’s homeless. It’s somehow creepier to be here during the day than it is at night.
“Sorry it’s not up to par, princess,” Jax replies with a smirk.
Haleigh bristles at the nickname. “Whatever, are we doing this or not?” she snaps, crossing her arms over her chest defensively.
His brows raise in response to her sudden shift in attitude but he doesn’t comment on it, instead he waves a hand towards the red Nissan behind him. “Whenever you’re ready.”
Haleigh stalks over to the car door and swings it open, she swears she can hear him laughing to himself as she slides in behind the wheel and it just sets her on edge even more. He joins her in the car a moment later and begins spitting out instructions.
“Alright so you’re gonna want to put it in neutral first and-“
“I know how to drive stick,” Haleigh says impatiently.
Jax lifts his hands in a placating gesture. “My bad, I’ll let you take it from here then,” he says and she can clearly read the amusement in his eyes.
She can’t resist rolling her own and puts the car in gear, she doesn’t bother waiting for whatever advice he has before taking off down the street. “Just tell me when to shift,” she adds after a moment of silence.
“Sure,” he says agreeably. “So what’s your deal?” he asks eventually.
“Excuse me?”
Jax huffs and lays a hand on top of hers on the gear shift, coaxing her into shifting, he leaves it there, warm fingers curled around her own and it does nothing to ease the tension she’s feeling.
“You’re a bit,” he pauses, carefully choosing his words, “touchy.”
“Touchy,” she mimics flatly.
“Yeah, like that. What’s got you all worked up?”
Haleigh chews on the inside of her cheek and glares at the barren landscape outside the windshield. Her brain sifts through possible responses but all she can think to say is, “What do really think of me?” She hates herself for asking it as soon as the words pass her lips.
From the corner of her eye she can see that her question has taken him by surprise.
“What do you mean?”
She huffs in annoyance and speeds up, engine humming beneath her. “My friends all think I’m a fucking idiot for hanging out with you, they all think you’re using me, and your friends all think that I’m just Trust Fund Barbie, just some stupid kid out to get her kicks, so what is it Jax? What exactly am I to you?”
“Maybe we should discuss this later,” he suggests, his eyes trained on the climbing speedometer.
“Oh fuck off,” she growls. “I am so fucking sick of people treating me like I’m made out of porcelain, okay? Just answer the goddamn question.”
Jax shifts in his seat and stares out the window at the blurred scenery for a moment before speaking. “I think you care too much about other people’s opinions.”
Haleigh clenches her jaw and forces herself to let up on the gas before she does something stupid. “That’s not what I asked,” she grits out.
“I don’t know what good my answer would do since you seem to put so much stock in what everyone else thinks about us. You think I’m using you?” he asks with a humorless laugh. “In case you forgot, you’re the one who offered to give me money, if you’re having doubts now that’s on you, Haleigh, it was your idea. As for your little friends, I don’t give a shit what they think about me, they don’t know shit about me.”
“They would if you ever came around,” she replies tersely. “But in case you haven’t noticed we only ever hang out on your turf with your friends.”
Jax scoffs and shakes his head in disbelief. “Is that what this is about? You want me to come hang out with all your little rich friends. What, you want me to take you to prom?” he sneers meanly.
Tires squeal on the pavement as she swings the car around abruptly, Jax slams his side into the car door and she gets a bit of satisfaction from it.
“What are you doing?”
She doesn’t bother answering, just slams down the accelerator and goes back the way she came. Jax doesn’t say another word until she’s skidding to a halt in front of the abandoned canning factory once again.
“You done now?” he asks.
Haleigh nods wordlessly and steps out of the car, slamming the door behind her. “Oh I am beyond done,” she answers as she stalks back over to her car that’s shining in the late afternoon, a beacon of her escape.
“Haleigh, come on, don’t be so dramatic.”
She throws up a middle finger in response and doesn’t bother looking back as she floors it down the street.

Gender Reveal
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Morgan's backyard was decorated beautifully thanks to her, Chenice and their boyfriends. Haleigh loved the theme, it gave her a giggle honestly. Being surrounded by her friends and family almost made her forget that she was alone for this special moment for her baby. Although her loved ones told her often how she was never going to be alone and they would always be there, she wished her son or her daughter had Messiah. Kids needed their fathers, right? She know she needed hers. She had no idea where she would be without him.
Noticing their friend was off by herself, Chenice and Morgan swooped in, taking seats on either side of her. Chenice rubbed her stomach.
"You feel okay?" Morgan asked studying her face.
"Yeah I'm okay. Just wanted to get off my feet for a second." She laughed a little feeling the baby kick. "Nicey, I'm gonna get you back for every time you have gotten him or her hyper."
Chenice laughed pulling her hand away. "I can't help it that cutie loves their Auntie already!"
Haleigh squinted looking between her best friends and laughed. "Please tell me that's not why yall picked a cutie theme, Morgan."
Her friends laughed along with her.
"It was the only way I could get her to focus." Morgan explained through her laughter. "But it turned out cute. Mostly thanks to me."
"Hey! I helped, it was 50/50!"
Morgan stared. "You and Elijah wanted to string cuties up and hang them instead of the lights. Me and Luke had to talk yall out of it almost 10 times."
Chenice shrugged, "Yall are just haters. It would've been cute."
Morgan stared at her playfully. "Anyways. If you're over here thinking about that little ugly boy, don't. It's his loss, not yours."
"I know but the baby," she sighed. "Eventually they're gonna wonder why everybody else has a dad and they don't."
"And when he or she asks, call me and I'll tell them cause their sperm donor is a bitch." Chenice asserted with a shrug.
Morgan swatted her hand laughing. "You are not saying that."
"Why not?" She asked. "It ain't a lie."
Haleigh laughed listening to them go back and forth. Her friends knew her so well.
"Man bring your ass on." Woody fussed walking around the front of his SUV carrying his gift bag. "First, you tryna look better than me and then you tried to outdo my gift."
Ardian laughed, getting his gift basket from the backseat. After his conversation with Haleigh in the store, he spent another hour picking out things to put in the basket. He made sure he had things for mom and baby.
"All I got on is a shirt and jeans, man. And she'll appreciate both of our gifts," he laughed.
Woody stared at him. "Uhuh. Don't be tryna get with my sis either. She already mean enough, don't need your mean ass making her meaner."
Ardian laughed even louder following him through the gate to the backyard. There were more people than he thought would be in attendance but they were outside so it would be okay for him. Him and Woody put their gifts on the table then filled out the advice cards.
"Come on. I'll introduce you to my people." Woody said proudly. He led him over to two other men. "Aye yall this my boy, Ardian, that I be telling yall about. Ardian, this Luke and Elijah."
They slapped hands, getting one another.
"You the one he been trying to get to come out with us," Luke laughed. "Nice to finally meet you, man."
Elijah laughed. "Woody said he have to pull you out the house, man."
Ardian chuckled and shrugged. "Ima homebody. But he the same way, he hate spending money."
"So do you," Woody clapped back laughing.
"Either way, we appreciate you for coming out to celebrate our sister and her baby."
Ardian nodded looking around. "Of course, no problem."
"Alright, can we get everybody to come over! We're about to reveal the gender!" Chenice yelled excitedly.
Following Woody and the other guys, Ardian made his way over to the area. He looked around at all the women and big men surrounding the area, whistling softly.
Morgan helped Haleigh to the front of the crowd, both taking their spots with Chenice. She was holding back tears through Chenice's whole spill until Chenice passed her a large cutie replica balloon.
Ardian kept his eyes on her, a small smile on his face realizing she was the woman from the store. A coincidence that they had met and he ended up at her gender reveal.
After the crowd counted to three, Haleigh popped the balloon allowing blue confetti to rain down on her. Her family and friends roared with excitement of the new baby boy she would have. Ardian watched a big man go forth and pick her up in a hug. When he turned to the side, Ardian could see tears on his face. He whispered something to her before placing her back down.
"I'm proud of you, Princess. You got this, Daddy's always right beside you." Roman whispered then placed her back down.
Kandice hugged her next, kissing her face repeatedly. "We got us a baby boy, pretty girl."
After all of her family and friends congratulated her, Haleigh went to get cake with Morgan and Chenice and go to their own table. The three friends talked about potential names, themes for his room and more things they couldn't wait to buy him. Ardian, Elijah, Luke and Ardian approached their table, sitting down with their own cake.
"Aye, sis. This my boy Ardian," Woody announced squeezing his friend's shoulder. "Ardian, this our sister, Haleigh."
The two made eye contact then laughed.
"Nice to see you again, Haleigh."
Morgan squinted, looking between them. "Again?"
Haleigh looked over at her friend. "Remember the guy I told you helped me get my detergent down in the store? It was Ardian."
"Oooh this is the," Chenice stopped herself catching the look Haleigh and Morgan were giving her. "Thank you for helping my friend. She so hard headed and wouldn't wait for somebody to go with her."
He nodded, chuckling. "It's no problem, I didn't mind. Congrats on the boy, Haleigh."
"Thank you. Wait, was that my gift you were picking out?"
"Yeah it was. I had no idea at the time. This fool told me a baby shower, not a gender reveal." He laughed nudging Woody.
Woody put his hands up. "Aye. Either way it was a baby something. Don't be tryna bad mouth me in front of my people. That's strike 3 but ima give you another chance.
"What was strike 1 and 2?" Luke asked.
"First one was him tryna look better than me, nobody looks better than Woody," he said brushing himself off. "Second one was him tryna outdo my gift."
Chenice rolled her eyes. "Full of yourself. And what did you get her and the baby? Knowing your cheap self, it came from dollar tree."
Woody gasped holding his chest. "That was rude. I got them a nice gift. Got sis them ugg slides she like and I got my boy a nice lil Nike hoodie and sweats."
"And I bet it hurt your cheap ass heart to spend that much," Elijah joked, laughing loudly. "Ardian, what you got?"
Ardian shrugged, chewing up his cake. "A basket with baby stuff, snacks, face masks, teas that I heard were good for new moms, gift cards and some other stuff I don't remember right now."
Chenice and Morgan cooed.
"All stuff that she needs," Morgan smiled. "That was very thoughtful of you, Ardian."
After the party was cleaned up and guests started to leave, Haleigh snuck out to put some of the leftover gifts in her Jeep. She was attempting to be quiet so she wouldn't alert anyone and get fussed at. She attempted to pick up the box of diapers, groaning a bit.
"It was easier getting it out here." She huffed loudly.
Ardian chuckled under his breath watching her. "I don't think you're supposed to be doing that."
Haleigh jumped turning to face him. "I ... did they send you to spy on me?"
"No ma'am. I came out to put my to go plates in the the car," he said holding up his bag. "But now that I'm here, hold this. I'll put the rest of this stuff in for you."
Taking the bag, Haleigh stepped out of the way to let him do it. She knew it wasn't any use in arguing with him, especially not if she wanted to keep this between them. She watched him effortlessly load it all in.
"Sooo," Ardian drug out putting the last few items in, "Can I ask about his dad?"
"Not around."
"I'm sorry. Was it by choice or?" He asked leaning against the back of her now closed Jeep.
She nodded. "Yup. Told him I was pregnant and he told me that a baby was too serious for us. He suggested I get rid of my baby, told him I didn't want to and I woke up the next day and him and all his stuff was gone."
"That's fucked up. Yall were living together and he said a baby was too serious?" Ardian shook his head. "His loss. He's a coward."
She gave him a sad smile. "Yeah he is. We weren't living together but we would stay frequently at each other's places so."
"He's gonna regret that shit. But you got a real big support system behind you."
She laughed softly. "You mean good support system?"
He shook his head laughing. "No I meant big. You seen them men in ya family. They big like my dad. I know nobody fucks with them."
She laughed hard holding her belly. "I can't. We're laughing but it's true."
"Oh I know it is."
The two of them laughed a little longer before it slowly tapered off leaving them gazing at one another. Haleigh cleared her throat feeling kicks.
"He's kicking. Do you wanna feel?"
"Yeah, that'd be cool."
Haleigh took his hand placing it on her belly where her son was kicking. "Feel it? He's so hyper from the cake and juice. We'll probably be up all night."
Ardian smiled feeling the small but strong kicks. He wondered why any man would.leave his baby and mother of their child like that.
"I usually don't sleep too good at night," he shrugged, "If you want, we can exchange numbers and you can call if you two can't sleep."
Smiling, Haleigh looked from her belly to his face. She knew she probably shouldn't but he seemed nice and Woody liked him.
"Yeah I think that would be okay."
Roman, Jey and Jimmy stood at the front window of Morgan's house, staring through the blinds at the two. The two of them were close enough that they could hear the conversation.
"I can't lie, that was smooth," Jimmy complemented. "I like him."
Jey sucked his teeth. "You don't know shit about being smooth. Where he come from anyway? Never seen him before."
Roman kept his eyes on his daughter. "I don't know but I'm gonna find out. Big mouth ... I mean Chenice will tell me."

I’m going to talk about a thing that is very dear to my heart that sometimes bothers me in reality TV shows, showmaces/bromances. In my opinion it is stupid to pair off with someone you barely know, but it also makes for cute moments that show you how human they actually are. In this season of big brother we have 3 pairings of this; Swaggy C and Bayleigh, Brett and Winston, and Haleigh and Faysal. 
Swaggy C and Bayleigh (first picture) were the first confirmed pairing of the season, with Swaggy even going as far as to say that he loves her. It started out as a friendship and alliance, with both Swaggy and Bayleigh shown to have feelings for each other. They kissed fairly early in the season, which caused problems between them. They had their ups and downs with each other and the other houseguests, which ultimately led to Swaggy being the second person evicted this season. They were cute when they were together even giving themselves the ship name of Swayleigh; but when the weren’t together, in my opinion, they were the villains of this season.
Brett and Winston (second picture) are the self described “Bromance” with nothing romantic going on between them. They are best friends in the house, who have put a target on their backs because of it. They were both put up on the block this week because Scottie noticed how strong they were together.
Haleigh and Faysal (third picture) are not confirmed yet. They both like each other, with Faysal showing most of the feelings.  It started out as an alliance and Haleigh wanted to keep it that way, bu they finally kissed ( i think) under the covers only to be busted by Rockstar and Kaitlyn. They haven’t made anything official yet, but i believe they will later in the season. 
There are also some possible showmances i think might happen:
Scottie and Rachel because Rachel made such a big deal about Scottie never being kissed and she was also upset when Scottie blindsided her by putting up two people in her alliance.
Winston and Sam because on Big Brother’s YouTube channel they released a clip from the Live Feeds that showed the two of them slow dancing in the kitchen. Also on the first day Sam mentioned about how “perfect” Winston looked.
Kaycee and Angela are going to be a female “Bromance”. I think they could’ve been a showmance if Angela wasn’t straight. They will be a bromance because I always see them together.
Kaitlyn and Faysal because it is obvious that Kaitlyn likes Faysal and Faysal may or may not reciprocate those feelings.
Tyler and Kaitlyn because Kaitlyn always turns to Tyler for advice on what to do. When she saw Faysal and Haleigh cuddling she cried to Tyler and leaned against him for support. Kaitlyn could also be a pawn in Tyler’s game because he secretly controls the house at the moment by being the leader of the Level 6 alliance.

It's too much of me in ur life, but if u will tell me to go away, I will. Anyways, my dads mood today: to make me cry hysterically and not let me go away to be alone with my tears, because «c'mon cry about how bad I am here» while I was literally yelling many times to let me go to my room
Part 2: Omg, I wrote the first part of the ask, and then saw the last chapter of "Little moments", and my feelings for Ferdan quickly moved from 'little awe' to 'awe and SAME, BRO'. When Thranduil and Luthien comforted him, I literally felt it for myself, and it was... wonderful and super in time. Won't I ask for too much if I ask you to persuade Ferdan to tell me something reassuring? (idk why he should lol)
O.o.o..o.
Ferdan: "Its hard to have good advice that fits well enough for many people, because every life and every moment is so incredibly versatile and individual that its impossible.
But I think the most important and reassuring things I've always been thankful to have is a clearer veiw of my self, and my worth. Because even though you may be trapped in a situation with people who don't beleive in you, their criticisms become a joke instead of a bullet if you beleive in your self.
And your own worh.
Then, as you grow out of this situation (because you will, time changes everything one way or another.) The new people you meet will not even have the chance to doubt you.
Treat yourself inwardly, and outwardly like you deserve to be treated and you're life will have no room for this who offer less.
The crowd reacts to how you react to yourself. If you stumble over words and get embarrassed, those watching will follow suit. If you stumble over words and laugh about which two words you accidentally put together others will laugh with you.
They scream because they want the crowd (you) to scream back and justify the situation. If you remain calm, the crowd (your dad) might be shamed into reacting the same.
Find a space in your head that you can go to when people are attacking, a little slice of peace. Remember your good qualities. Remember the good you add.
You're still young and growing your feathers, child, but soon you'll learn it can all just be water off a ducks back

Happy Birthday Haleigh!
Hyunjin Looking Fine™ for @hyunjins
Happy Birthday Haleigh! 
Congrats on being the funniest, kindest, coolest person ever. You’re truly one of a kind and I’m so luck to know you and love you. You’ve been my friend for so long (Like I do think you’re the oldest friend I have on here... It feels like we’ve been pals forever??) and through a lot of bad times, and for that I’m always so grateful towards you. You’ve given me advice and helped me smile when I was at my worst, and those moments mean so much to me. Even if we became friends because you (wrongfully) accused me of being a furry, I’m still so happy we’re friends. Getting to see all the wonderful gifs you make and all your funny tags is always such a blessing. Just being your pal makes me smile. Thank you for being so funny, thank you for always being honest and real with me, thank you for believing in me and giving me a safe place to speak my mind, but mostly, thank you for being you. I’m so grateful to have you in my life Hales! Happy Birthday baby! I love you so much!
Love, Ganguli!

Yay, sleepover Saturday! 😁 My name is Haleigh, and I really love your content.
Hi Haleigh! Nice to meet you and thank you so much ^^ That’s such a great goal! I myself don’t really have my ish together as much as this blog may give that impression but let’s see 🤔
Create a routine or at least a general outline of how your day should go. A little birdie told me Habitica is apparently pretty great for this.
Find a form of exercise that you enjoy and stick to it - I personally find that I want to break stuff if I don’t go for a daily run so I’d say that definitely helps with mental health. But it doesn’t have to be cardio! As long as you get those endorphins, you’re good. I’ve heard yoga is great for people who don’t like working out so may be give that a shot. 
Have something to look forward to - whether that’s a vacation, hanging out with a friend.
Cut out people from your life that don’t bring you any joy or just don’t contriute anything interesting to your existence. As harsh as it sounds, it’s okay if this includes family members.
Take time for yourself - paint your nails, put on makeup just for the sake of it (if it’s the kind of thing that you enjoy), do a face mak. You are the most important thing in your world so show yourself some love.
Take up a new hobby or start spending more time on an old one - it’s super therapeutic to do stuff just because you enjoy it.
Have healthy snacks with you at all times - oats, blueberries, raspberries, hummus popcorn (yep they’re healthy) or make healthy and fast snacks (my faves are avocado toast (mix and mash avocado + sliced tomato + salt) and mug cakes (cocoa powder + flour + egg kind of tastes like a brownie). 
Eliminate refined sugar from your diet as much as possible - specially in your breakfast. Avoiding sugar crashes helps SO MUCH because you won’t feel sleepy and you’ll be a lot more productive and you’ll just feel so much better.
Try to get on a regular sleep schedule - it doesn’t have to happen overnight. Maybe just try to go to bed half an hour earlier every day 
Hope that helped! Best of luck on your journey!
Sleepover Saturday!
