Hi! Hope you're doing well :) Got another LauraMax prompt for you again😁: How about a role swap with these two, i.e. Laura is the one who was bitten? She strikes me as someone who likes to be in control; being confronted with the revelation that she's gonna turn into a mindless, violent beast would be hard for her to accept, I imagine... Have a lovely weekend! 💕
definitely more than six sentence sat(or)sunday!!!
“I’m just saying…we show up to the camp expecting to find Mr. H…instead there’s something gross waiting for us in the bunker…you get bit by it…full moon…”
Laura took a breath, long and deep and slow, the bars of her cell pressing against her forehead as she tried to will herself to fall between them. When it didn’t work (for the millionth time), she let the same breath out, her eyes falling shut with it. “Yeah?”
There was a pause from the other side of the cellblock as Max chewed at the inside of his mouth. “I’m just saying…what if…”
“What if what, Max?”
“What if you’re, y’know…” He rolled his eyes towards the ceiling as he said it, already anticipating her answer. Instead of going the direct route, then, he cleared his throat and abruptly changed his pitch, dropping into the wacky register of a morning radio dj. “When I say wolf, you say…?”
She frowned against the bars. “What?”
“No, where.”
Her eyes opened again. “What?”
“You were…you were supposed to say where. Like…I say wolf, you say where, werewolf, were…wolf.” He let his head loll back against the hard stone wall of the cell. “Now that I’m hearing myself say it out loud, though, I guess maybe that wasn’t super intuitive.”
It took her a second to understand that, doofy delivery or no, he was…he was being serious. Like serious-serious. “Max,” she started, staring intently at the exposed brick in front of her. “You can’t…that stuff isn’t real.”
“Okay, yeah, see, normally I’d be all aboard the insane-train with you – full steam ahead, choo choo – only I saw the thing down there in the bunker, Laura. Y’know, I…” He brought his hands up to rub at his face before sliding them into his hair, hoping if maybe he pressed down on his sinuses hard enough, the image of all those teeth tearing through her wouldn’t have room to take root. “Whatever that thing was? It wasn’t a person. It wasn’t a giant shih tzu either, I’ll give you that, but…definitely not a person. I feel…extremely confident in saying that. People aren’t usually that…” He grimaced. “Pointy.”
She mouthed that to herself once, ‘pointy?’ and then pushed herself away from the bars, doing a half-pace through the cramped space of her cell. As she walked, her eyes caught the strange poem carved into the wall, and as though by magic, she found she couldn’t tear her gaze away from that single word no matter how hard she tried: Wolves.
“Laura?” Max called after a minute that felt more like a decade. “You got real quiet all of a sudden…”
She read the poem a third, a fourth, a fifth time, and still nothing became any clearer. Eventually she found her way to the cot (as though there was anything else in there with her) and let her legs go weak, sending her down onto the uncomfortable, lumpy mattress. “Let’s say…” Laura swallowed hard, more to push past the block of doubt tightening her throat than any actual fear. “Let’s say, for the sake of this hypothetical, that I am, a…uh…”
He waited, and waited, and when he could wait no more, gave her a couple options to choose from. “A supernatural flea-bag? A creature of myth and legend?”
Despite herself, she snorted once. “Yeah. Sure. Let’s go with that. If I…am…one of those things…I think this whole being kidnapped thing is about to get just…a whole lot worse, actually.”
It was Max’s turn to frown. “How do you mean? See, the way I see it, all this means is we have to wait a few weeks, and then bam, pow, zoop, you go all ‘the better to eat you with’ on our good pal Officer Asshat, and we run off into the sunset happily ever after.” He paused. “Sunrise. We’d run off into the sunrise.”
“Max,” she sighed, dropping her head into her hands. “There’s something I haven’t told you. Or like. Anyone. Else. Ever.”
Considering how long they’d known each other, not to mention the depth of the heart-to-hearts they’d had over all those years, that…well, that was concerning. Slowly, Max sat up from where he’d been slouching, his eyes searching the middle-distance as though that’d somehow help him see the expression on her face. “Yeah?” he asked, when all that middle-distance showed him was, surprise, more brick. “I…you know you can tell me anything, hun. Whatever it is, I—”
Her breath escaped her in one hard whoosh. “I’m allergic to dogs.”
“…wait, what?”
Laura’s head tipped back against the wall and she covered her face with both hands, groaning into the air. “I’m so allergic to dogs, Max. It’s bad, I get hives.”
“I…” If such a thing was possible, he sat up even straighter, bracing himself with both hands on the cot. “You’re going to school to be a vet.”
“Yeah, I know! I have to take…so…many allergy meds when I’m anywhere near a dog, and just…” Her hands fell away from her face, flopping to either side of her. “I didn’t bring any of those for the summer.”
He sat quietly for a moment, just trying to absorb all of that. “Can you…be allergic to yourself?”
“I don’t know!”
There was so much distress in her voice, so much worry, that everything in his chest seized up like someone’d stuck a knife in him and twisted it. Since they were separated, he couldn’t do what he normally did (namely wrap his arms around her and hold tight until the storm had passed), so he did the next best thing. Made a fool of himself. “Well…I mean…look on the bright side here.”
Sensing the attempt for what it was, Laura made herself take another deep breath, rising to the bait instead of falling back into her own head. “What would the bright side be, exactly, Max?”
“Any time you don’t wanna do your homework, you can eat it yourself.”
“I…” The laugh took her by surprise, a hard bark (har-de-har-har) of surprised delight. “It is the perfect crime.”
“And all that hands-on experience you can pad your resume with? Hoo-wee. You’ll probably be able to graduate, like, two years early!” At the sound of her laugh, he had no choice but to smile, turning instinctively towards her voice. “We’ll figure out what’s going on, okay? Werewolf or…whatever.”
She looked down at her own hands as he said it, humming in acknowledgement. “Yeah, I know.” Laura flexed her fingers, tried to imagine them looking like anything other than what they’d always been, and came up short every time. “Hey, can…can werewolves get rabies, do you think?”

Friends with Benefits - Chapter 3
a/n: hiii, sorry it’s been a while since I posted chapter 2, but I’m finally back with chapter 3! It’s a bit shorter, but an important one. will hopefully be writing a lot more now that exams are almost over :)) anyways, enjoy this chapter and please feel free to tell me what you think and reblog <3 pairing: police officer!h + Alex word count: 5k warnings: it’s pretty clear from now there will be language, alcohol consumption, smut and trouble with body image in basically every chapter so from now i’ll only write M (mature)
Seemingly, both Harry and I had gotten what we wanted out of each other. Two breathtaking fucks and the intimate moments after where we cuddled and basked in the afterglow of the sex.
It really wasn’t enough for me though. He was like an addiction and I don’t think I’ll ever get enough of him. Not that I have a way of contacting him or meeting him except meeting him at the bar again - if we even go at the same time. As he has said; he isn’t one to party a lot nor go clubbing too often. We both spend most of our time at work and it seems like we don’t mind that.
Saying goodbye the Sunday morning two weeks ago I thought it would be the last time we’d meet. Now, standing in the same club as always, staring into Harry’s eyes I couldn’t let the smile grazing my lips go. It was as if all my hopes and dreams were heard when Harry gave back the same smile and made a ‘come here’ motion with his hand up in the air so I could see over the bodies between us. Grabbing my pint of beer, I left the bar and swiftly made my way over to where Harry was sitting. The group I was with had just entered the club and they were still at the bar waiting for their drinks as I didn’t say a word when I walked off.
Harry was seated at the end of a booth close to the corner, his back turned to his mates as I came to stand in between his thighs to be able to hear each other over the loud music blasting over the speakers. I took a drink of the beer before sitting it down next to what I assumed was Harry’s pint.
“Hi, pet. You alright?” Harry placed a soft kiss to my cheek in greeting as he basically screamed into my ear. I leaned away to look at him while giving him a small shake of my head, yeah, I was just fine. He looked smashing in his colourful button-up missing a couple buttons at the top, making me see the top of his butterfly tattoo when I let my eyes gaze down to take him in.
“You celebrating or something?” I took a quick sweep over the rest of the table he was with and there was an expensive bottle of champagne being passed between them. Not the most sanitary or anything, but who was I to judge when I’d definitely done the same when I was drunk. Who exchanged spit and drinks with who, weren’t on the top of our heads when we were drunk and only wanted to get more drunk I guess.
“Nah, the mate who broke it off with his girl some weeks ago dragged us out and he’s making them down everything he buys. I’m driving today though, so only a pint for me. What’re you doing here again?” His hands were dangerously close to the tops of my thighs as they held me close and his thumb pressed patterns in my skin. I was wearing a skirt and a quite revealing top tonight, though not expecting to meet anyone, especially Harry. Maybe in the back of my mind I thought there was a possibility as this is the place we’ve met both times - and now a third.
«Oh, good to see he’s doing alright then. Just here to have a couple pints, didn’t wanna get too drunk or stay out too long tonight. Have quite a lot of paperwork to get through this weekend.» Harry groaned when I mentioned work, not wanting to think about it for tonight I guess. I didn’t really want to think about it either.
«Don’t remind me. I have to go in at six for a couple hours to finish a report, but then I’m off for about a week thank god.» He finished off with a smile thinking about some - I’d say well earned - days off.
«Well then, to celebrate that, how about we go back to yours to have an even better time than we’ll have here?» It was bold of me and I knew it, but that’s how it had been since the first time we met. I took initiative and went in full force and there were absolutely no regrets.
Harry sucked his lips into his mouth as he dwelled over what I’d proposed. There was a slight shimmer to his eyes as he moved his head back to get a good look at me. I didn’t mind his eyes travelling over my body, only enjoying how he didn’t hold back from showing me he liked what he saw. It gave me the last bit of confidence I felt I needed being with a man like Harry.
Not giving a verbal answer, he took one last drink of his pint before getting off the leather seat. His hands turned my body around, settling on my hips as he walked us straight past the bar and made our way outside. The parking lot he’d left his car in was on the other side, quickly jogging over the road when no cars were coming.
It was a lovely night, warm and just humid enough to not break out in a sweat. Perfect start of summer weather. His car was nice and looked expensive at first glance. The inside was clean, no dirty napkins or bottles on the floor. He must take good care of it cause most other lads’ cars I’ve been in haven’t been nearly as clean as Harry’s. I gather that he doesn’t want to talk about it when he doesn’t even look at me to see what kind of reaction I had to it.
«You drove here when you could've walked the fifteen minutes? That’s lazy of you, mr. police officer.» I hadn’t used the nickname last time and I missed it. Harry didn’t exactly seem to mind it either as he took in a harsh breath after hearing it. Even more of a boost for me.
«I thought I would have to drive my mates home as they clearly are getting wasted out of their minds.» Of course he was the sensible one of the group, he’s a fucking police officer. Knowing how he cares for his friends and has his life set makes me feel a bit angry at myself. Why did I have to get an obsession over someone I’d never be enough for? «And to be honest, I’m glad it’ll get us home quicker cause I’m already bulging after you calling me that, pet.» I only giggled and looked out the window, not wanting to be caught staring at him.
The car ride went by in silence after that. The quick five minutes were agonizingly slow and I couldn’t stop thinking about getting to feel Harry again. It made my thighs clamp together to try and get some sort of friction to satisfy me.
Having parked the car, both of us jumped out and almost ran to the door wanting nothing more than to get inside and rip our clothes off. God I can’t wait to feel his achingly perfect cock inside me for a third time. I should probably try to forget about him after this time, knowing we’ll stop seeing each other at the club as often during the summer as I’m planning to be gone for most of it anyways.
«I’ve been dreaming of meeting you again. Honestly can’t get you out of my head, pet.» Harry seemed a little hazy as he quietly let the words tumble out of his pretty pink lips I still haven’t got to taste tonight. Good thing it’s only just passed ten and we have all night to enjoy each others taste.
«Shut up and kiss me already.» He closed the short distance between us as he pulled me to him, front against front. His rough grip on my waist made me grow more want for him. Maybe he finally realized after last time that I wanted it rough though I might come off as someone who wants to take control. I don’t mind but god do I like being thrown around at times and Harry did it really fucking well.
My bottom lip was between his in a second, sucked into his mouth and left his lips with a pop. I couldn’t help but already pant at the anticipation and need for him. My lips were slightly open, ready for Harry to slam his lips back on mine and tongue taste the inside of my mouth, licking into it. He didn’t waste a single moment on teasing me or waiting till I couldn’t anymore - dominating the kiss before we even touched lips nevermind tongues.
It made my stomach turn in excitement for the night and lust for the man in front of me. There weren’t any sparks, most likely because we didn't even know each other besides the basics. Well, not even the basics - not even knowing his age. Names and workplace are the only two things we’ve told the other. It felt fucking good having this platonic stranger with benefits. I guess that’s what I would put us as? There were no feelings ruining things or other people's opinions as we were still strangers.
«I want you to cum in my mouth this time.» I barely managed to get the words out of my mouth as Harry was too eager to get his mouth on mine. When he heard what I said though, it was like his eyes got darker and his grip tightened around me showing how much he also wanted that without saying it.
Feeling his tongue get familiar with my mouth again was intoxicating, making me want to make out with him for hours on end. I wouldn’t mind if we dropped sleeping and just moved our lips together until the sun rises.
«You wanna.. upstairs?» Harry was already breathless, either because he knows what he’s getting or because of the kiss. I hummed in response, guiding us to the stairs leading up to his room. If this is going to go how I want it to, I’ll want to be comfortable and though the couch was good, his bed is the best option.
I trusted Harry to be careful and considerate but also push limits which was exactly what was needed tonight. No ‘are you sure’ or ‘i don’t want to hurt you’ talk, just straight to it. No, I wouldn’t get to feel his length inside me - unless he thickens up again right after which I doubt - but maybe before he has to head out. Maybe his fingers will suffice for tonight.
«You’re going to fuck my mouth, officer, and I’m gonna take it like the good girl I am.» There was no point in not being direct from the start, teasing unnecessary and unwanted from both sides. He looked like I told his biggest dream was coming true as he bit his lip and rolled his eyes back as he tried to collect himself for a moment. My fingers danced over his neck and shoulders before tugging his shirt over his head.
«Lay down. Head this way, pet.» The pet name he had called me since we first met had grown increasingly on me and I couldn’t imagine being called anything else. Following his orders I got on the bed, facing him, head almost dangling off the bed. It was risky to let him take control over my airways, but it was a risk I was willing to take.
There was no doubt he was hard and ready to burst if he just got a little lick to his slit, but there is also no doubt he’ll hold out for as long as he can. Leaning down, he slotted our lips together in a more than messy kiss that was hard to navigate as we were upside down. His hands caressed my cheeks before moving to pull my top down, letting my tits spill out on top. I knew he liked them and since depriving himself for longer than needed last time, he was making up for it this time. Pinching my nipples he got a moan out of me telling him to keep going. I loved when my tits were played with, the sensitivity a great feature.
My fingers trailed down his sides languidly, feeling his abs flex at the sensation. Gripping the front of the trousers he was clad in, I somehow managed to open it up before pulling it down along with his briefs as far as I could. Harry moaned into my mouth as his cock freed from restraint and I got my hands on it only tugging lightly.
Biting my bottom lip he pulled away to make sure I was comfortable where I laid before shuffling the few centimeters closer so his tip rested on my lips. I was excited to taste him again and to feel his impressive length down my throat. It being something I don’t usually do unless I trust the person or really want to.
He left it to me to take him in and start licking and sucking him deeper into my mouth which I gladly did. Starting with a kitten lick to his slit he groaned and twisted my nipple between his fingers at the feeling of finally being touched where he needed it. I closed my lips around his tip focusing on sucking it and licking around it, but knowing he’s sensitive already I put my hands on his hips trying to get him to move closer. Feeling the welcome weight on my tongue as his cock drove deeper into my mouth, stopping at the start of my throat, I sucked and bobbed my head only slightly as it was hard to move in my position. Not yet knowing exactly what he likes in terms of blowjobs, I listened for sounds he’d let out or if he rutted his hips more at something I did.
«Fuck that’s it.» He murmured before letting out the loudest moan I’ve heard as I helped him go deeper, reaching down my throat. I liked the sensation, knowing I - or Harry - could control something so dangerous as my breathing.
Harry began thrusting his hips more, guiding his cock himself down my throat, keeping still for a second before letting me breath and doing it again. I removed my hands from his hips, wanting him to take full control and let them lay flat on the bed. It was intoxication listening to him pleasure himself with my mouth, only making me wetter by each groan.
«Shit- oh god!» It was as if he was losing his sense to keep himself at bay, the feeling of being down my throat too good. I didn’t mind, loving the fact that he felt comfortable enough to completely be himself for me.
Harry fucking my mouth was intense, the feeling of him pushing his cock as far down my throat as possible, cutting my airways for seconds at a time made me dizzy and want to succumb to every need of his right this moment. I loved laying there, taking everything he gave me without the ability to stop him except if I really needed to of course.
There was no need to stop though. He knew exactly when it was enough and pulled out and when I could take more.
«Agh.. Your mouth feels so fucking good Alex-» It was like he didn’t quite know how to express himself, too far gone in his own head. «I’m gonna cum.. Mmh, you want it down your throat, pet?» Even when he was gone he still called me pet and I reveled in it. It made me smile around him, but quickly going back to shutting my lips around him as he was back to only putting the tip in. I sucked and licked at his slit wanting him to get his release. It didn’t take much before he was shooting ropes after ropes down my throat, moaning as he filled up my mouth with his cum.
I’m sure I had tear streaks down from my eyes to my temples, but to be honest I hadn’t paid attention to anything except Harry’s cock in my mouth for the entire time. I enjoyed it just as much as he did.
«Fucking hell, pet.» Harry’s slowly softening length slipped out between my lips and I opened my mouth to show him his work before swallowing all of it. He groaned at the sight and bent over to catch my lips for a sweet kiss mustering up the little energy he had left before falling on the bed right beside me.
Laying next to each other trying to catch our breaths, Harry’s fingers delicately trailed up and down my thigh laying next to his torso. It felt nice to have the cuddly, cute aftercare I so badly craved for with every other lad who only wanted me gone after emptying inside me. Which is mostly the reason I began only letting them cum on my tits or arse. It was a fair deal I thought, seeing as a lot of them didn’t even get me off.
His chest was still somewhat heaving, begging for more air when I sat up dizzy from the blood coming to my head and not regaining my breath completely either. His eyes opened to see if I was going anywhere. I was still fully clothed, only my tits hanging out next to a naked Harry who seemed to have kicked his pants off all the way. His cock laid slack against his thigh, tired from the intense orgasm.
«Did you enjoy that?» I don’t know why I felt like asking this time. My confidence was always up when I was with him and it sounded and felt like he really liked what I was doing. My tits were red with his marks and I hadn’t felt a thing being too busy reveling in Harry. He could get it with me anytime he liked and I would comply and do exactly what he wanted.
«Did I enjoy that?» He chuckled and moved to hold his weight up on his elbows. «That was unreal. I was so fucking gone in my own head I didn’t even think about you. Are you okay, Alex?» Course he cared for how I was feeling, it was like second nature for Harry to care about the people around him. Probably the reason why he became an officer.
«Yeah, I really liked that.» I hadn’t even been close to reaching an orgasm from that alone, but damn it if I hadn’t enjoyed myself more than with any other lad - who I’ve never even let fuck my face like that.
«Do you wanna sit on my face? Honestly don’t know if I can move right now.» He was good to look at so I let my eyes wander, his tattoos shining along with the rest of his skin with a light layer of sweat. I shook my head no, telling him I was good for now.
«I might wake you up tonight if I can’t sleep though.» Winking at him as I got out of bed fixing my tits before going downstairs to get a bottle of water. My throat was rough and the aftertaste of his cum wasn’t that nice any longer.
Bringing a bottle of water up for Harry to drink, I jogged up the stairs only wanting to fall asleep as soon as possible. Not getting much sleep during the last month has gotten to me and the one weekend I have off I want to make up for some of it.
«Is it alright if I sleep here?» Again, don’t know why I felt the need to ask Harry if I could stay the night when I’d done it the last two times.
«I was kinda hoping you’d stay and I could return the favor when I get back from work in the morning? I’ll be done by nine at the latest.» Harry didn’t look like he was scared of getting rejected, almost talking as if it was the most normal question. Maybe he recognized there was something up with me and was trying to act as normal as possible for me to relax again.
«Mm, I think I can do that.» Harry smiled from where he was still laying, telling me to ‘come here’. I didn’t object and fell straight into his arms with a quiet sigh. His hands grasped my body tightly to his, fingers going up and down my spine. «Think I’m gonna fall asleep in a few seconds if you continue doing that.» It felt incredible having someone dote on you without any pressure or hidden feelings behind it.
«Let’s get up and get ready for bed then, yeah?» I nodded and reluctantly removed myself from his arms pulling him up with me.
Standing in the bathroom brushing our teeth together felt oddly relaxing. A thing normally viewed as intimate between a man and woman when they’re sleeping together at least. There had been intimacy between us since our first night together I feel, so we might’ve gotten used to it - not thinking about how this isn’t normal for people who only have sex.
Deciding to push the thought to the back of my mind, I got undressed to my underwear before jumping under the covers waiting for Harry to get in behind me and pull me close.
— Morning after
I wasn’t aware of my surroundings as I was still asleep and only barely waking up when I felt the unforgettable feeling of someone going down on me. Slowly opening my eyes as I let go of the moan I couldn’t even try to hold back, I saw the duvet was still covering my body, one leg sticking out while my right knee was sticking up under the duvet.
It was undeniably the best wake up call I’d had in years. Maybe even since the morning of my fifth birthday which was twenty years ago. Lifting my arms to lay above my head, my hips started moving along Harry’s tongue wanting to get as much pleasure as I could out of it. Since when were men this good at eating a woman out?
He smiled against my clit as I continued to sound my pleasure and circle my hips against his mouth, obviously liking how much I enjoy what he was doing. And I sure did enjoy it, a smile finding its way on my face as well before more sounds took over and I couldn’t find the energy to moan through a smile.
His tongue flicked my clit once, twice before sucking it between his lips, tongue still flicking. It was warm and wet when he released it going down my slit, pushing his tongue in me. I don’t understand where Harry learned how to eat someone out when literally no other man even knew where my clit was. His arm hooked around my thigh moved down so his thumb could circle my clit, pressing into it at times to get more heavy breaths from me.
I didn’t last long, Harry going at it like he was starving, reaching my first high this morning from oral with a soundless moan. My hips didn’t stop grinding into his lips and he didn’t let up until I moved my hand to push him away. I was sensitive and not quite awake yet as I came down from an orgasm I couldn’t compare to anything else.
Harry came up from under the blankets, fitting himself between my still open legs. Seeing the smile on his face, chin and lips glistening with my release on them, made me pucker my lips together wanting to taste myself on him.
«Mm..» Harry moaned into the kiss, his body fully leaning down on mine, barely holding his weight up as I took most of it. It felt nice - his warm body encompassing mine fully.
Keeping him close we spent the morning in bed, kissing and ultimately slipping him in when he spooned me. The position being intimate and sensual, but the morning stillness and tired bodies made it the best way to get off in this moment.
After rolling around in bed for an hour, enjoying another orgasm or two, our hungry stomachs made us get out and make our way to his kitchen. The sun was shining through the windows making the room light and the slightly warmer wind blowing through the open french door made it so the shirt I had put on was just enough to not get cold.
Sitting down on one of the dining chairs I watched him move around in his kitchen making us french toast for breakfast. The clock had just passed ten and I was planning on going straight back to bed when I got home then hopefully finishing up my paperwork. I needed the sleep or I don’t think I’ll function the week coming up.
«I wanted to talk to you about something.» We had been sitting in silence as we ate the toast until Harry’s words broke the comfortable silence. I nodded and moved my eyes to connect with his showing him I’m all ears.
«We’ve had sex a few times now and first of all I want to make sure we’re not giving each other anything. I know I’m not sleeping with anyone else.» I understood where he came from. We don’t know what the other does when we’re not together and because we’re not using a condom we could easily bring an STD into the picture.
«I told you I haven’t been with anyone but you the last year, so I’m clean. Even went to the clinic last week.» It was a necessary conversation, but telling him I’d been checked after we’d slept together was a little awkward.
«Good. I’m clean too, checked on tuesday.» Harry nodded, but didn’t seem done with the conversation. To prepare himself for the second part of the conversation, he took a bite of his toast before swallowing it down with some water.
«I wanted to ask you one more thing. It’s absolutely fine if you say no, but know I’m one hundred percent up for it.» He looked me in the eyes as I waited for him to ask what I had a feeling he would.
«Would you wanna make this a regular thing? Exchanging phone numbers and meeting up whenever we want a release instead of not knowing if we’ll ever see each other again? I think we’re pretty compatible in bed and I’ve had a better time with you than any old fling I’ve ever had.» He was laying our options on the table, suggesting we become friends with benefits. It had crossed my mind, knowing I wouldn’t object to having a benefit relationship with him. Honestly think it’ll be more beneficial for me and I never thought he’d bring it up.
«I’d be up for that, yeah. Not to make things awkward but you’re a pretty decent lad with a more than satisfying member to be fair. Would be stupid to turn you down - anyone would.» My cheek grew hotter as I spoke, a tint of red covering them I’m sure as I’m clearly not as bold and confident when we’re not in bed or drunk.
Harry only smiled at me as I basically confirmed our new relationship - friends with benefits. It’s been five weeks and too many wet dreams since I met him and knowing I can have him almost whenever I want - and when he wants - is just perfect. If I can give him half as much pleasure as he gives me I’ll be a happy lady, but I will aim to give him mind blowing orgasms every time.
«Didn’t think you’d be up for this sort of deal with the whole police thing.» Looking up from my plate as I ate the last bite of my delicious toast, Harry squinted his eyes at me.
«And why’d you think that?» He didn’t sound irritated or confused but intrigued to know what was going on in my head. Putting my trust in him and being honest is a huge part of us - I think at least - so I washed away all anxiety and worry. Not that he made me have a reason to be anxious around him.
«Just thought you’d be a bit proper and all. Guess that went out the window - along with my knickers - the first time we met, huh?» Snickering at the memory of him throwing my knickers out his window, Harry joined in also thinking back to five weeks ago. Being able to have banter with him is good, makes things less serious as it should be between friends with benefits - I think at least.
“What are you saying then? Wanna give me your number, pet?” Harry looked at me with the happiest smile on his face; there is no way I’m letting neither of us down by denying us having regular hookups. I’d be causing myself pain to not let him fuck me as much as he wants.
“Happily. One tiny condition though, we always meet here cause I have a roommate and I want to keep this between us. Not because I’m ashamed, but because she likes to meddle in my business and it’ll be easier if she doesn’t have proof of anything.” Harry agrees, not wanting anyone else talking about our - not quite so normal - relationship.
It was easy being myself with Harry, he made me feel safe and relaxed. There was no need to keep my guards up around him though we’ve not known each other for long. Not that it mattered much, there were people who got married after only a couple months of knowing each other - which we most definitely will not do.

I tried to make a pic crew of Sirius, and it’s... not my best work
Tumblr media
YOUR POV:
‘Shit,’ you thought ‘my uniform,’ you had put your uniform through the wash yesterday and... it shrunk. You didn't have time to change, so you threw it on along with your robes, which hadn't shrunk—pulling them tightly around you, concealing the much tighter and shorter uniform. You hurried to your last class. During lunch, your wonderful boyfriend had spilled orange juice down your front. Like any normal person would, you washed your uniform. But when you used magic to dry it...whoops.
You walked into potions and sat down. There was no way to cover your uniform while sitting, so you hoped Sirius wouldn't notice.
“Sorry about the umm orange juice y/n, ” he said, smiling nervously.
“It’s alright, you, ” you nodded, smiling at him.
Before you had time to start a conversation, Professor Slughorn began the lesson.
“Umm Sirius, ” you said, “could you get the ingredients I'm having, ” you thought for a minute, “period cramps! Yeah, period cramps they're so bad this month, ”
He nodded quickly, “Alright yeah, I'll get you some tea and a heating pad when we get back to your dorm, ” he looked around briefly before pressing a kiss to your temple. You smiled.
He came back with the ingredients, and you got to work. The class ended quickly, although Sirius shot you a glance more often than not.
‘Did he figure it out?’ you thought, you ultimately shrugged it off ‘no, it's probably fine,’
You walked with Sirius down the hall. You were halfway back to the y/h dorms. Your robes flew open at one point, but he didn't seem to notice until he shoved you into a broom closet.
LOL, NOW ALL THE CHARACTERS ARE MAGICALLY 18
“Sirius, what are you-” you began.
“What the fuck happened to your robes y/n?” he groaned in your ear, pressing his hard-on against your crotch.
“Sirius, ” you stuttered, “I washed them, and when I dried them, they just umm, ” you gestured to your uniform, “shrunk.”
He groaned softly again, cupping your breasts. They were threatening to pop out of your shirt. (I have A cups, so I feel your confusion reading this.) Your skirt had ridden up, exposing the bottom of your ass. He wasted no time grabbing that next.
“y/n,” he said breathily, “please let me. I need to, ” he leaned closer, whispering, “please,”
“Yes, I would really like that, the period thing was a lie by the way.” you said, finding it a little more challenging than usual to form sentences.
He chuckled softly, “I wouldn't have cared either way, ” large hands massaged your inner thigh, causing you to gasp softly. He smirked, moving his hands further up your thigh.
“You really thought I wouldn't notice, y/n? You thought I didn't stare at your body all day, ” he grinned, “why do you think I'm so bad at concentrating, huh?” he slapped your ass, causing you to jump. He laughed.
“Sirius, ” you whispered, “what if someone walks in?”
He rolled his eyes, “they chose to ruin their own day, ” he chuckled, “or, depending on what we’re doing, it might make their day, ”
You groaned, ruffling his hair, “Sirius...”
“Fine, ” he chuckled, “let's walk back to your dorm while I have a giant hard-on, ” he shrugged, leaning against the wall and crossing his arms.
“Giant?” you teased, biting your lip.
He rolled his eyes once again “you're on thin ice, little missy, ” he grabbed your chin and kissed you. “If I'm walking back like this, you should ditch the robe; it's only fair, ” he smiled.
You turned red and began to take off his tie as he laughed.
“You're very persuasive, Mr. Black, ” you grinned.
He laughed, “and you're very seductive, Miss. y/l/n.”
You bit your lip and shed your robe completely, causing him to groan.
“Fuck, ” he whispered as you gave him a little twirl. Before you could turn to face him, he pushed you against the wall and grabbed at your ass, breathing heavily.
“Are you gonna keep staring at me in my uniform? I thought I'd be naked by now, ” you grin.
He leaned in “hmm, I'd rather keep the uniform; it's hot, ” he grinned. You rolled your eyes but undid the top buttons providing some access to your chest.
You gave him a look, “I'm not calling you professor if that's what you're thinking,”
He laughed. “I'm not into that, ” he took you by surprise, moving your underwear to the side and pushing a finger into you. Somewhere along the way, you had turned to face him. He watched your eyes roll back slightly at the sudden pleasure and listened closely for the soft moan that escaped your mouth.
He whispered in your ear, “I know we should use a silencing charm, but it would be so satisfying for the whole school to hear you moaning for my cock y/n.” you whimpered as he curled his finger slightly, brushing that spot.
“Little miss perfect being a sweet little slut just for me, ” he leaned in to bite your neck. “it's beautiful how desperate you get y/n, ” he said, his voice going down an octave, “my perfect girl.” he whispered before raising his voice as his hand gripped your throat “Mine.”
You were a mess; you wanted your clothes off. Now. But couldn’t bear to see Sirius slip out of this headspace. He was sweet and sensual, but the hand around your throat made you wetter than any beautiful words of adoration ever could. Not that you didn't love it when he was sappy like that.
He grinned “let's get to the good part, hm?” he whispered.
He started moving his finger at an agonizingly slow pace for about ten seconds before gripping your throat harder and adding another finger. He began thrusting them in and out of you rapidly. You whimpered, pressing your face into his shoulder before the hand around your throat pushed your head back against the wall.
Using every ounce of energy you could summon, you squeaked out “silencing charm, ”
He laughed darkly, “a muffling charm is the best you're getting today, ” he grinned wickedly, “in fact, earlier this week, James came up with one that only works on teachers. I'm sure our fellow peers wouldn't mind, and they definitely wouldn't tell. They'd be racing back to their dorm to get off to your sweet voice, ”
He muttered the charm, pointing his wand at the door; you quickly released the groan you were holding in; it echoed around the small room (most of the broom closets are stone).
“That's it, ” he cooed “good girl, ” he praised using his thumb to rub your clit.
A small yelp escaped your mouth as his other hand grabbed your breasts through your shirt.
“Sirius, ” you whimpered after about ten minutes of his ministrations “c-cum, ” you moaned.
He immediately stopped. Looking down at your shaking form.
“No, ” you said breathlessly “please, oh my God Sirius please, I need it please, ” you said looking up at him.
He grinned and whispered, “I want to savor the taste of your cum. You know good and well that I can do much more with my tongue than with my fingers, sweetheart.”
He moved in between your legs, pulling down your underwear. His hot breath fanning over your center making you gasp. He pressed his lips to your thigh.
“This would be a great time to start begging y/n, ” he said, making sure you felt the vibrations on your thigh.
You begged shamelessly, “please, Sirius, I need your tongue, I need you to go down on me. I'll do anything, Sirius, just please let me cum. Let me cum in your mouth, ” your face burned bright red as the filthy words spilled from your mouth.
“That's a good girl, ” he whispered “what a perfect princess, ” he said before diving into your cunt.
His tongue licked up and down your slit. Occasionally stopping to flick your clit, causing you to moan and try to grind down on his face. He held your thighs tight, leaving bruises and causing you to whimper when he refused to let you sink onto his face.
Your hands flew to his hair when he sucked lightly on your clit; a loud moan that anyone in the hallway loud and clear. Another mon fled from your throat. His tongue briefly entered you, but it didn't elicit the same reaction of his previous efforts. Your lackluster response frustrated him briefly. He grunted before filling you with two fingers and moving back up to your sweet spot. His goal had nothing to do with teasing you. He was desperate to lick up all of your cum.
The moans turned into sobs of pleasure, and it didn't take long for your knees to buckle, eyes to roll back along with your head, and tug at his hair. He groaned, the vibrations causing you to let out something close to a scream. You whimpered as you sunk to the floor with him pushing him against the wall and undoing his pants. You kissed the firm bulge before taking as much as you could down your throat.
A whimper escaped his throat as he bucked his hips, causing you to gag slightly. However, he didn't let you come up for air, you adjusted and began sucking and using your tongue to stimulate the head as much as you could.
It only took about five minutes of your soft lips around his dick before he yanked you up by your hair. You grinned at him; spit was dripping down your chin, your lips were swollen, and your cheeks were pink from the restricted airflow. He thought you were beautiful. His perfect slut, doing such an excellent job of pleasing him.
“Are you still on birth control, love?” he asked.
All you did was nod.
“Lay on your back y/n, ” he panted, “n-now.”
You obliged, unbuttoning your shirt further. Honestly, Sirius didn't care. All he cared about was thrusting into you and hearing your pretty moans and screams. And that's just what Sirius did, thrusting into you as hard as possible. You cried out loudly as he stretched you, hitting the perfect spot every time.
He held you down as he fucked you to keep you from hitting your head and so you couldn't squirm away. He felt you clench around him, so he egged you on to get both of you close.
“My perfect sluts gonna cum, aren’t you? My pretty whore, my perfect girl, my beautiful girlfriend, my, ” he groaned and lost his train of thought, “go on, baby, cum. Cum for me. Only for me. I know you need to. Wearing that slutty little uniform got me so hard, baby. I tried to hold it in and jack off alone, but I needed to fill you up. Fill your, ” he groaned loudly, “cunt with my cum, ” he gasped, “I can't hold on, ” he groaned “y/n, ” he moaned, “I need you to cum for me, sweetheart.”
The filth that spilled out of his mouth pushed you over the edge into your second orgasm. Sirius was close behind if not meeting your orgasm. You sobbed in pleasure once again. Letting the entire castle know that Sirius Black had fucked you senseless. Thick hot ropes of cum shot from his swollen cock. You felt it begin to fill you up. The warm liquid filling you was almost uncomfortable, but you liked it—a lot.
You both laid there for a minute, panting. Sirius pulled you to his chest.
“You were so good, baby. Thank you so much. I love you y/n.” he whispered into the top of your head.
A large smile crept onto your face, “I love you too, Sirius. Thank you so much.” you kissed him gently.
You buttoned your top and pulled on your robes. Sirius zipped his pants and buckled his belt.
“Ready to face the music?” he smirked.
“There's no way someone waited out there this whole time. We've been in here for maybe thirty to forty-five minutes-ish?” you said.
Sure enough, when you walked out, three boys and a red-haired girl were waiting outside. Lily was smiling uncontrollably, James was smirking, Peter left immediately, and Remus looked... Disappointed.
“That was disappointing, Sirius, ” Remus said blandly, “surely you can do better than that.”
“Well, moony, why don't you give some tips if you're such an expert, ” Sirius shot back.
Remus smirked. “I’ll give you a list of them by tomorrow, ” he said as he walked away.
Lily, unable to contain her excitement, grabbed y/n’s arm and pulled her towards the y/h dorms saying, “you have to tell me all about it, ”
Sirius simply got a pat on the back and a ‘congrats man’ from James, who was a little disturbed by the whole ordeal, wondering how to do that to Lily, but too afraid to ask Sirius about the mechanics.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A/N: exhibitionism should ALWAYS be completely consensual not only between partners but between those who are viewing it. However, this is a fanfic so there's no harm done. DO NOT do this irl without everyone’s consent.
Aaahhhh first smut on my acc! Yay!

And We’re Live
“This ought to be fun.”
The man, the being, the figure, doesn’t introduce himself, of course not. He needs no introductions, not because he’s notable or particularly renowned, but because he refuses to. You may call him the announcer, capital and article optional, as that’s what he is, and all he will be. 
The Announcer adjusts the display on the screen for the optimal viewing experience. On it is a dim, possibly damp even, basement, with a small crowd of people huddled inside. Three is company, but four is a crowd, and this collection of people is certainly a crowd crammed inside. 
Three men, one woman, but only one of the men stands. He’s one of the only ones who can, as one man is clearly too weak to, and the other, the older man, has a broken leg. The woman could stand, but her faint wavering even while sitting down belies the fact her balance is not yet restored from the head injury that left a streak of blood dried in her hair.
“You recognize these, don’t you?” The Announcer asks. He asks you, in fact. You can’t recall the color of his eyes, the tone of his skin, or anything, though you can recognize his attentions on you even through the screen. “Yes. You. It’s been some time since you’ve last seen or heard from them, but I’m sure you remember.” 
The Announcer smiles. It appears, a flash of expression, but you can’t remember the emotion behind it or recognize any other feature of his before he fades away in your mind again to nothing more than a vehicle of your entertainment. He knows this. He is not the star. Your gaze slips back toward the more interesting people. Thom nods off, cradled against Dale’s side opposite to Jaden, and Summer is half hidden behind Dale’s bulk. Half, because her focus, even as fuzzy as the concussion leaves her, never wavers from Jaden. Focus, and wariness.
“When last you saw the unfortunate guests of the Pierce couple, they were not enjoying their stay. I’d wager they enjoy it less and less as the days pass. How long?” The Announcer laughs. It’s as unremarkable, and unmemorable as the rest of him. He answers his own question. “Long enough, let us say. Such trivial matters don’t lessen your enjoyment of the main event, does it?”
You feel like maybe the announcer winks, inviting you in on some inside joke or exclusive club.
On the screen, Jaden Pierce towers over a floor-bound Dale Gibson, an ugly smirk on his features, and dangles a water bottle in front of them. 
The Announcer speaks a final time. “I’ll leave you to enjoy your show, my whump aficionados.”
Jaden slowly uncaps the bottle, the seal crackling being the loudest thing in the room. Preening under the cumulative weight of his captives’ stares, he asks, “Aw did you guys want any? There’s only one bottle and really it’s like, unsanitary as hell and super nasty to share so. Take your pick, babes, which of you is desperate enough to earn it?”
“Go to hell you bastard,” Summer croaks. Clearing her throat, she glares, as if that would cow him. Instead, it seems to encourage him, a smirk growing on his face.
Jaden rolls his eyes at the display. “Ooooh I’m so scared.”
“Please. You can’t mess with this like you have our food,” Dale reasons. “We can’t last as long without water. I’ll- I won’t eat. Just please, they need water.”
“Pretty sure you’re showing every sign of dehydration too, so why aren’t you arguing for more water for all of you?” Jaden shifts the bottle to hold it in the crook of his arm before he crouches down and cups Dale’s chin, forcing their gazes to meet. “Oh that didn’t occur to you, did it? Look at those eyes. Anyone ever tell you that you got eyes that tell a story?”
Dale doesn’t justify that with a response, setting his jaw and silently returning Jaden’s curious stare with a furious glower. 
“Get your disgusting hands off him,” Summer snarls. Jaden’s attention flickers to her, and Dale immediately moves to reach out for Jaden’s face, cupping his cheek and bringing their gazes together once more. Or at least, it did, but surprise has Jaden jerking back from the contact, eyes wide and jaw clenched. Unsure of what to do with his hand, or if his impulsive action just ruined any hope of good will from their captor, Dale slowly withdraws his hand back to cover Summer from Jaden’s potential retribution. 
After a few more tense moments, he seems to find whatever he was looking for, or come to some sort of decision.
“Jesus H Christ but you’re boring these days,” Jaden grumbles half-heartedly, but he does shove Dale back. The older man tips, just barely catching himself from dragging an semi-conscious Thom to the floor with him. Noticing the fact Thom barely reacted to the motion, the young man stands back up and takes a few curious steps to the side, an odd expression on his face as he studies his collection from a new angle, and especially the branded man. “So… Uh. What’s up with Thommy boy? He seems a little... not poggers.”
“You branded him,” Dale points out evenly, forcing his panic down. “He needs proper medical attention.” 
“Well, yeah, he got branded sure, but Sunshine there looks right as rain after her little Jack and Jill impression down the stairs, and she didn’t even need anything. So why hasn’t he gotten over it yet?”
“He’s starving,” Dale explains, right as Summer snarls, “Are you really that dumb?”
That’s the perfectly wrong thing to say, as Jaden flips- his eyes dark and hateful, lips twisted into a sneer, focus entirely on her now. Dale flinches back on instinct, free arm extending to block Jaden’s path to Summer. Dale knows, Summer knows, Jaden knows, that it won’t do anything concrete to stop him, but the younger man still does not advance.
Silence descends on the room, heavy and oppressive like the midday heat leaching into the basement.
Though Dale pushes her back, bodily places himself between Jaden and his two charges, Summer continues. “How could you be this... stupid? I can see your report card now. ‘Dear Mr. and Mrs. Moron, look into McDonald’s applications’.”
Emboldened by the silence, and undeterred by the way Dale whispers for her to stop, Summer adds, “Now I know we’re going to go free. You’re going to forget something so fucking simple and get yourself in trouble. And the whole world will forget all about you, you miserable mistake of a human being.”
At the almost petulant look on Jaden’s face, Summer bursts into short, sharp laughter. “I can’t be the first to point out you’re a failure! You’re going to ruin your worthless life-”
“Be quiet,” Jaden orders. Growls. His grip on the water bottle has the plastic bloating and deforming, the flimsy packaging crinkling. “Shut your mouth before I shut it for you. Do not test me.”
“You’re too incompentent to make me do anything, idiot,” Summer fires back.
“Fucking BITCH!” His shriek ends with an abrupt and solid crack.
Dale hurries to gather Summer in his arms, to check her neck and her head. A heavy, purple bruise blooms on her face and jaw even as the swelling shuts her eye. “Come on, Summer, come on,” he whispers, “just open your eyes and look at me.”
Thankfully, despite the lurid color, she is only a little unsteady and dazed and forces her clumsy arms to prop herself up properly. Swallowing a furious sob, Summer screams at Jaden’s retreating back, “You’re fucking pathetic!”
-
Three hours later, Lab Coat Lady entered the basement, flanked by Jaden bearing that damned pistol. When Dale tried to get his attention, Jaden silently raised the gun to the center of the older man’s forehead. Only when Dale slumped and allowed the woman in pink access to Thom, even as his heartbeat climbed ever faster and higher in his throat, did Jaden lower his threat. 
Sluggish and flushed with fever, Thom struggled to cooperate as the woman ordered, except for her last demand- to remain still- as she readied to pour a faint yellow liquid down his throat. She glanced up at Dale, then Summer. Quietly, she offered little explanation (“Hydrocodone”) before tipping it back, and, when Thom realized what had hit the back of his throat, she expertly covered his mouth and nose and held his jaw shut. 
Dale watched it all, feeling like Judas.
Only after his motions slowed and his eyelids drooped did the woman in pink release her hold enough to settle him onto his back. 
From there, she debrided his burn, slathered a generous amount of antiseptic cream, and bandaged the wound with a silvery material, all under Dale’s watchful eye. 
The woman approached Summer next- and again, as soon as either she or Dale moved, Jaden leveled the gun at Thom’s head. Both captives froze, a single, too long moment of realization that despite this effort, he might still decide to blast a bullet into Thom’s skull; blissfully unaware, Thom dozed in a drugged haze. 
He kept the gun trained on Thom the whole time the lab coat lady attended to Summer’s head injury, cleaning out blood from the wound and her hair. Summer, even if only for a moment, leaned into the rhythmic sensation of fingers gently carding through the freshly detangled locks. After that was settled, the pink coated woman checked her pupils and eye tracking, and apparently gave her a clean enough bill of health. Her carving on her lower stomach received the same treatment Thom’s branding had. 
The silence began to itch, like a week without a shower, and Dale clenched his fists as best as his broken wrists allowed. He just wished someone would speak and explain this abrupt change. Was it because of what Summer said? Had they gotten through to him somehow?
Dale stared at Jaden, expecting him to say something, make some sort of joke or verbalize his threat or name what they owed for this kindness. Jaden acted like Dale didn’t exist at all. It was unnerving, the same way it was unnerving to see teachers outside school hours, or parents when they were children- someone with a previous persona acting entirely differently from what one could expect of them. Unexpected was never a good sign when it came to Jaden. 
“On your back,” Lab Coat Lady directed him, pushing him back, powerless, helpless in everyway. He couldn’t defend himself on a good day, let alone stuck supine. He couldn’t even fight back as she pushed down on his chest and drew his hands away from his body. “Cooperate. Things will go smoother.”
They did. His wrists were rebandaged, and his leg braced. That simple act alone brought tears to his eyes, both from the metal pressing against the swollen flesh, and the relief of loose bone finally finding stability. Again, he tried to find Jaden’s gaze, to lock eyes and try to understand, but the man didn’t glance in his direction at all, though he had to feel the weight of his stare. 
Wiping her hands down with sanitizer again, the pungently clean smell permeating the poorly ventilated basement, Lab Coat Lady pulled out three prescription bottles. Haphazardly, Boomer, Thom1, T2, and a sun were written on the bottle lids in sharpie. The lids themselves had timers on them, presumably counting down to the next doses. Next to emerge from the bag was four more water bottles. Just as silent as Jaden had been the whole time, the pair left the basement and latched the door behind them.
“What the hell was that?” Summer whispered after a few minutes. 
“I don’t know,” Dale admitted, struggling to sit back up, even as Summer reached over and helped him to change positions. His gaze dragged back to the locked door, and his mind to the man who had walked out. He didn’t know that man at all. He hadn’t considered that sort of behavior in Jaden’s abilities. His palms began to sweat and shake as he checked the bottles left behind. 
Thom’s was more hydrocodone and an antibiotic. The instructions were clearly detailed on the side of the bottle. The same for Summer’s, another antibiotic. Dale had been… not prescribed, but given, pain relief. Tylenol-3, codeine. The bottles were light, and almost more full of air than medicine, but they contained an unimaginably heavy question within: Why.

Warnings : angst, mentions of blood
WC : 2k
Hey! so I've got all these angsty prompts anywho, hope you like this. This the first time I've had an OC, so let me know if you like that? This came together, quite quickly, so the edit might be a little choppy. Feedback and ideas are always welcome!
Masterlist
happy reading!
"Lovie! You can't be knocking things in your wake, gotta be a little more careful y'know?" He said.
Nylah froze. "I'm sorry, H. I guessed I misjudged the distance?" she nervously giggled.
"S'okay, you good? You don't sound all too convinced about that?"
"Nope. All good, I guess it was a little foggy, nothing too serious."
"Okay, if you say so." That response didn't convince him, though. Ever since the patio incident, he'd been keeping a close eye on you. He had a feeling she'd been hiding something. But he wasn't sure enough to call her out on it. He was waiting to see if she'd come to him first. Even if she was the stubborn one between the two, he would let it go for today, and no one wants to argue on the weekend, right?
He wishes he'd had that argument and taken one for the team because maybe then he could have avoided this phone call altogether. Or that's what he tells himself.
Nylah had taken a significant fall at work, slipped down the stairs and hurt her head, and they said she was bleeding. That's all he heard before he made a mad dash to his car to get to his fiance. His heart was racing; he couldn't piece any information together. He remembered to make a quick call to his mother; asked her to call Nylah's mum and meet him at the hospital. As far as any information went, Nylah was still unconscious, so that they wouldn't allow him in with her.
"Well, I'm her husband. You've got to let me stay with her. What if she wakes up and there's no one beside her? Please, let me go see her."
"I'm so sorry sir; She's getting her stitches now. You can wait outside the procedure room, and they'll let you in as soon as it's completed." the nurse says.
Amid this argument, Anne comes rushing through. "What's going on? have you been in to see her yet? have they given you any update?"
"No. we're waiting on them to finish stitching her up. After that the doctor will come and speak with us, I suppose. I don't know why I didn't pay more attention, maybe she was sick and didn't tell me? I mean, I should have noticed, right?" Harry was finding it hard to not tear up with anxiety.
"Harry, what's happened has happened. You just need to make sure she's okay now", and on that cue, the doctor walked in to greet them.
"Are you with Ms Jones?" The doctor asks
"Yeah, I'm her husband. Is she okay? How bad was the fall?"
"It's not too bad, but my concern is more to how she fell. Do you know if your wife has a history of fainting spells? or balance issues? could be one of the reasons she could have taken the tumble."
"None that I'm aware of. Nylah does have low blood sugar, but she is good at keeping that in check and, as far as I recall, she hasn't fainted from a low sugar spell in a few months. But why is that a concern? I mean, it could have just been that she tripped, right?"
"We're just trying cover our bases, Mr.-" He looks at Harry as if to ask your name
"Styles." He responds.
"Okay, well, Mr Styles, you may go keep your wife company now. The nurses will let us know when's she awake, and we can have a chat then."
"Thank you." and He turns to what he assumes Nylah's room is and walks in to see her still unconscious.
"Hey kid, I'm so happy to see you; gave us a proper scare. I'm going to be right here beside you when you wake up." He coos. Harry sits down beside her bed and reaches for her hand. He's too fidgety from anxiety to stop his knees from bobbing up and down. Still thinking about what the doctor said. Could it not have been a trip up? Could she have fainted, and no one was there to help her break the fall?
She was doing so well with keeping her sugar levels in check, and maybe she slipped up? All these questions were running amuck in his mind, and he couldn't make sense of it.
In his anxiety spiral, he had utterly missed that Nylah was coming to it. She was slowly peeking through her lids as if the lights were too much for her. Harry quickly stands up. "Baby! Are you okay? Does your head hurt? I'm going to call the nurse for you, okay?"
"Woah, slow down, H, I'm okay. Can you please ask them to dim the lights? It's too much for my head right now." She winces.
"Yes, let me call the nurse for you."
"hey! Did you press the call button? Good to see you're awake, Ms Jones."
"Yeah, she just about woke up. Could we please dim down the lights in here a bit? She's finding it a little difficult to open her eyes because of it."
"Okay, sure, let me inform the doctor, and I'll see about the lights."
"Thank you."
"So, what happened? Did you feel lightheaded? missed lunch or something?"
"Okay, so I mean, my vision has been getting kinda blurry of late? I don't know what that's about like I can't see things that might be in my surrounding that well." Harry looked like he wanted to cut her off but let her continue.
"Before you say anything, I didn't want to worry you, and I wasn't worried either until today. I thought I would take the stairs today, and they were white? And I couldn't place my feet. Because I couldn't tell them apart" She was tearing up.
"Hey, it's okay, we'll figure it out, okay? It's probably nothing. Don't worry about it. You're fine, and that's more than enough for now." Harry soothed her. But he really didn't know if it was going to be okay.
When the doctor came, they relayed the same information to him. he suggested getting some tests done to check her diabetes and vision. She's only 25, so it's highly unlikely it's anything major, or at least that's what they thought.
---
Everything will be okay, is what Nyah kept telling herself, but who was she kidding? She had been hiding the blurriness in her vision for quite some time now. Why didn't she want to get it checked and find out what's wrong with her? She can't tell you for the life of her.
On the other hand, Harry had always known, but he thought she would address it sooner or later. He'd noticed she'd totally missed the butter sitting right in front of them at breakfast, and he had to get it for her. She would often take a second to adjust to light early in the morning.
You can't really do anything if you're missing big and obvious things sitting right in front of you, right? But he was wrong, Nylah was stubborn as hell, and she wasn't going to admit herself that she needed help, so it was up to him to figure it out and advocate for her. Had he done this sooner, they wouldn't be in a position like this, right?
---
The white walls of this hospital felt like it was caving in on Nylah. She didn't want to be here, neither did she want to get tested, and she didn't know anything point. This nagging feeling in the pit of her stomach just wouldn't go away. Harry was trying to be as supportive but to be honest, he was scared shitless too, neither of them of any help to each other. So they sat, quietly taking the eerie atmosphere of the hospital, holding each other's hands, hoping that warmth would enough to get through this cold tunnel of uncertainty.
--
After a whole week of a myriad of tests, they were sitting in front of their eye surgeon, who just gave them the news. They call it retinitis pigmentosa, and there isn't a concrete treatment that's shown to work yet.
That's all she heard before Nylah stormed out of the office.
She couldn't sit and hear another word. When the doctor told her about how her children, children who weren't even born yet, would be carriers or sufferers of the same illness. How could she succumb to this fate?
Harry and she were to still get married. They were going to travel the world. They'd been saving up for it, right? And babies? Oh, her babies with Harry, would that even be possible right now? Would he even want to continue this engagement?
She was sitting on the stairs outside the hospital. Crying into her hands, she didn't know what the hell to do anymore. So she would do what she thought was the best for her and Harry.
Harry came running after her. "My! what's wrong? Please come back? The doctor wasn't even finished giving us options on what we could do about this. Petal, you've got to hear him out. Please. " He looks like he's about to cry too, wouldn't you? If you found out the love of your life wasn't going to be able to see anymore? That she would miss arguably the best years of your lives together? He couldn't break down in front of her, though. So he would be the calm, reassuring voice of reason for her right now. Breaking down is for later when she is resting.
Nylah wouldn't budge, so eventually, they drove back home. She jumped out of the car before he could even be done parking. She hadn't said a word throughout the ride, and he didn't know what was on her mind. So he parked the car and walked in.
He slowly approached their room, only to find her packing all her belongings. He was a little puzzled, "Ny, darling? What are you doing? why are you packing?"
She turns around to look at him. That's when he notices her red-rimmed eyes, pooling with tears. She walks over to the dresser, takes off her ring and places it on the table. It was as if she was saying; This is it, you know?
He finally placed what was going on. "Oh no. No. You're not doing that, this is stupid, you're ending our engagement over this? Absolutely not. Please, baby, you've calm down. There's a long way to go still, and we don't even know all our options yet."
"I am going blind, Harry. I won't be able to see your face when I kiss you anymore. I won't give you children that might not be addled with the same disease as me. Hear yourself when you make this commitment, Harry." and go. I'm to packing her stuff. She was furiously wiping tears away. How were you supposed to keep a straight face when the love of your life is not going to be a part of your life anymore.
"I do, I'm in it for the long haul, aren't I? We'll break our savings and go to all the places you want to go to. We'll make audio vlogs, we'll document everything that we encounter, for you to remember. I'll do anything!"
Harry was panicking now. He's desperately trying to get her attention, to get her to see that he'll bring her the moon if that's what she desires. But this silence was too much for him. He could'n;t keep up with her. She was just throwing things into her bag. Finally, it felt like he snapped back into his reality, and he rushed behind her to keep those items back into her part of the closet. Because he wasn't going to let her go that easily. She'd have to fight him for it.
As he was putting things back, she was putting more stuff into her suitcase, and it was this weird limbo of aggressively shoving things here and there.
"Stop putting things back! I have to leave. I'm not going to put you through this, I'm not waiting around for you to decide when you're done with me, when it gets too tiring, No. I'm not sticking around to witness us and our love going sour. " She's screaming now.
He doesn't bother replying to her. He knows she'll ride out this tantrum.
He's crying too, heaving heavy breaths. He doesn't know if this is enough. If just letting her be angry is enough. He's just quietly putting her clothes back. That's when he hears something shatter against the wall. He frantically looks up to see their dresser lamp broken into million pieces on the floor. She goes for the jug of water next and throws it at the wall with as much strength as possible. The cup goes next.
He's screaming at her to stop, but she can't hear anything over her wailing and things breaking. She grabbed a vase from their windowsill and broke that too, it's mad fury, and she's so angry she can't breathe.
She's snapped out of her reverie when she hears him shout in pain. She looks at him and sees that he's stepped on some broken glass, but that's not what he's shouting about; he's screaming to get her attention to make her see that she's, in fact, hurt herself.
The carpet has got blood all over it, and there's broken glass everywhere. He strides across the room to reach her, only for her knees to buckle and take both of them down, she sinks on the floor with loud sobs, and he can't bring himself to stop crying either.
He rocks her gently, and whispers "We'll be alright", over and over again.

amortentia
character: george weasley
warnings: none
pairing: george x fem reader
george, fred, angelina and y/n sat in their potions class as snape rambled on about the amortentia potion in his normal, monotone, yet somehow characteristic voice. y/n slumped against george’s shoulder and he tried to not laugh when she began to not-so-quietly fake snore. snape caught wind of this, but let it go seeing as y/n was, in fact, his daughter.
y/n had fallen for george in their second year, when they first officially met. even though they both were in gryffindor they never managed to really cross paths. that was until y/n managed to fall in the middle of one of their pranks. it also helped a bit that angelina and fred were dating.
angelina and y/n had been friends since the train ride to hogwarts in their first year.
angelina sat alone in her compartment when another y/h/c(your hair color) girl walked by and asked to sit by her. angelina nodded and moved her bag. “i’m y/n. y/n y/l/n.” she stuck out her hand for angelina to shake and angelina took it.
“angelina johnson. pleasure to meet you!” she smiled warmly and sat down across from her.
“george! not that way!” fred yelled as george came scrambling around the corner trying to desperately catch a flying trinket of some sort. she caught it right before it hit her square in the nose and handed it back to the tall, lanky red head.
“i believe this is yours.” she giggled slightly, watching the shocked expression on his face. he nodded at her and murmured a small thank you and apology.
“hey fred, i think we found a new seeker.” george whispered to his twin as they walked down the corridor.
“and apparently your new girlfriend. you seem to be a little intrigued.” fred teased. 
“well, weasleys, since you seem to be so sure of yourselves why don’t you tell us what you smell in your amortentia?” snape accused, watching fred and george like a hawk.
“yeah george, what do you smell?” fred mocked, shoving his shoulder.
“uh, cherries, a bakery? and uh, fresh parchment.” the ginger muttered out, turning his blush away from the y/h/c girl. george knew exactly who he smelled, and so did everyone else. except y/n, miraculously.
“and you fred?”
“nothing. absolutely nothing.” he snickered.
“you brewed it wrong, five points from gryffindor.
fred earned a smack over the back of the head from y/n for that one.
“y/n? what do you smell?” angelina asked, knowing full well who she smelled.
“firework smoke, freshly baked bread, and chestnuts.” she settled, writing her discovery in her notes. once again, everyone knew who she smelled, except george.
fred smirked and leaned towards his twin, writing down notes in his own book. “george, you know she smells you, right?” george gave his twin a puzzling look and shook his head.
“no way. our friendship is strictly platonic. can you even define platonic?” george mocked, setting his quill down to pick up his cauldron.
fred faked a hurt gasp and smacked his hand over his chest. “you underestimate me dear brother. i am smarter than you seem to believe. i’m going to get you and y/n together, one way or another.” he smirked and watched george huff and puff away.
severus saw the way those two were head over heels about each other and finally decided to be the one to do something about it. of course his fatherly instinct kicked in and he didn’t want his baby growing up, but he cared more about her happiness. snape could tell george was the light in her life.
so, severus asked george to stay after to “talk about his grades”.
“mr. weasley, can you stay after class? we need to have a chat.” snape let out watching the boy carefully. george nodded and fred raised his eyebrows at him.
“you called me here?” george asked, leaving his books on the table and walking towards the front of the room.
“ah, yes. i wanted to talk to you about my daughter. y/n.” george’s stomach did a flip, but he contained himself and let the man continue.
“i see how you two look at each other. you’re in love. and i want what will make y/n happiest. that’s you. so, i want you to stop being a timid little girl, and ask her out. you know she’ll say yes.” george’s eyes widened. snape was telling him to ask his daughter out?
“y-you want me, george weasley, to ask out your daughter, y/n snape, on a date.” george reaffirmed, still in disbelief.
“yes.” snape nodded, “she fancies you, and you fancy her. you seem to be the best candidate for her anyways.”
george was still in disbelief when he met up with fred in the corridor after.
after telling fred all about what happened with snape in the classroom they were getting up to go to their dorm when they saw y/n walking down the stairs, rubbing the sleep from her eyes.
“hey y/n. what are you doin’ down here at this time of night?” fred smirked, moving slightly as to guide her to sit between the mischievous twins.
“just a bad dream.” she murmured, sitting down next to the pair and resting her head on george’s shoulder. fred gave him a light smirk and shook his head.
“alright lovebirds, i’m going to bed.” fred abruptly said, patting the empty spot next to him and winking at his brother.
y/n lay fast asleep on george’s shoulder and he lightly sighed. he had one of two options here, a, he could let y/n sleep, or, he could risk waking her up to carry her to her dorm. he decided on the latter and began his journey up to her dorm.
she woke up once george hit the first stair, mumbling something about cakes. “hi georgie.” she giggled, watching his face turn a bit pink.
“hi y/n/n. wanna go back to your dorm?” he asked, already on the way there.
“no, but i wanna go back to yours.” she playfully winked. george then realized why his brother liked having y/n around so much. she and fred were very alike.
“okay.” he shrugged, and pulled her body up over his shoulder.
“george! hey!” she laughed loudly, flailing around a bit.
george relished in the sound, never wanting this moment to end. he was definitely head over heels for this girl.
george and y/n ended up in his dorm and he lightly placed her on the bed, remembering he had roommates who were trying to sleep.
“you have to be quiet love but you can sleep with me here.” george whispered, laying the girl down and grabbing the blanket from the floor.
“can we cuddle?” y/n asked, yawning a bit.
“of course.” george winked, laying down next to her and pulling her small frame into his arms.
george looked down and saw her breathing mellow out as she fell asleep.
“goodnight y/n. i love you.” he whispered, kissing her forehead.
“i love you too you big goof.” she smirked, reaching up to capture his lips in a deep, slow kiss.

Let's join our lovers in their magical conquest beyond life and death as they fight for their love unravelling dark mysteries of the past along their way.
Warnings : just witchy stuff.
Mini Playlist : Secret love by Little Mix
Tumblr media
The song ended and you were brought back to reality. You slipped away from Tom's embrace averting your gaze.
“I think I'm drunk enough for today.” You smiled awkwardly face flushed red. 
"Yeah, you should go home now it's already quite late. I can drop you if you want." He offered. 
"No it's fine I can go with Jane."
"Okay then goodbye."
"Yeah goodbye and be safe." he cautioned. 
"Yeah I will." Giving him a tight lipped smile you went to the counter where Jane was sitting and watching you both the whole time. 
"That didn't look like your boyfriend." Jane quipped. 
"Shut up" you scoffed. 
"Where is he by the way?" 
"Probably drunk somewhere. Can we go now?" you paid for your drinks and headed back to your home. You both walked down the street giggling while gossiping about your life problems.
“You know you can’t string along to both of them, you have to let one of them go.” Jane said out of nowhere.
“I'm not stringing along anybody.” 
“Yes you're Cole has always been your backup plan if things didn't turn out well with your other flings. Think about it carefully Y/N. Stop wasting your time in a relationship that has no love in it” You listened to her quietly because it was true you were confused and had no idea what to do. You reached the crossroad from where one path leads to Jane’s house and the other to yours it was time for you both to say goodbye.
"See you tomorrow at the shop. Give me a call when you reach home" Jane said
"Yeah bye." You waved her a goodbye and continued walking. The road to your home brushed past a short stretch of the mystic forest. It was quite late so the road was pretty isolated. It may appear a little scary for the weak of heart but the dark never scares you. You enjoyed it's mysterious anonymity. But tonight it was different because tonight someone was waiting for you, hiding behind the veil of darkness lurking around those huge trees with your death sentence. 
"There she is. She does look like Amber." Laura remarks. 
"She is Amber, Laura." Angourie rolls her eyes. 
"Let’s finish the job we came for shall we?" Zendaya said with a menacing look in her eyes. Three of them held on to each other’s hands and chanted the incantation closing their eyes. 
"Vos omnes ministri odey et destructiones et seratore discorde. Et qui libiter opera facitis et tractibus, quod eat noce. Vos conjurae idec nos conjuo et odit fiat mier alve, Y/N." 
"Coming back in a mortal's body, poor choice Amber." Zendaya tsked sighing. 
"Let's see how many days this weak body of yours can sustain." She gave a devilish grin. The spell started doing it's job as you suddenly started to feel a little dizzy, stumbling a little while walking but you somehow managed to reach your home. Next day you weren’t still feeling any better but went to the cafe anyway. 
"You look like shit, everything ok?" Jane quipped pointing at your tired appearance. 
"Yeah I’m fine just a mild headache, still a little hungover I guess." You said busy wiping the counter. 
"So what’s the plan for Halloween?" 
"What are we five that we will go trick or treating?" 
"No but you are turning 25." Jane reminded you. 
"I don’t know, I just don’t feel like celebrating, birthdays have become really boring for me." You shrugged. 
"Hey girls." Your two new regular customers walked in with a jovial smile on their faces. 
"Hey," you said weakly. 
Jane and Harrison went for a kiss which soon turned into a passionate one. 
"Ugh! Guys get a room." You scrunch your face disgusted. They pull away laughing. 
“This is exactly how I felt when I used to be stuck between you and Cole.” Jane giggled. You scoffed rolling your eyes.
"So what’s up?" Harrison chirped 
"Nothing just that our girl is turning 25 this Halloween and she’s been a buzzkill because she doesn’t want to celebrate it." 
"Your birthday is on Halloween?" Tom's eyes lit up. 
"Fascinating isn't it? The spookiest birthday one could imagine."
"It's indeed special and this year there is going to be a blood moon on the night of Halloween which occurs every 25 years." 
"There’s still time for my birthday guys and before that we have our decade dance at the college. And the theme is the good old 90's" you sighed with content. 
"Yeah the minimalist era, quite liberating." Harrison agreed. Meanwhile Jane noticed something as she looked at you with a worried face. 
"Y/N your nose, it's bleeding." Tom and Harrison's attention shifted to you. 
"What?" You raised your finger and swiped it near your nose to find blood on it. 
"Are you okay?" Jane placed her hand on your shoulder with concern.
"Yeah I guess so."
"Wait let me see." Tom cradled your face with his large calloused palms surprising you with his sudden move. 
"Did something like this happen to you before?"
"Not that I remember." You looked at him totally weirded out. He let go of you, realizing that he was making you uncomfortable. 
"How are you feeling?"
"Tired and sleepy." You closed your eyes, holding your head sighing.
"I think you should go home and take some rest. We can drive you home." 
"No it's fine I'll be ok." 
"Y/N don't be stubborn Tom is right, I'm here I can handle it for today."
"Okay let me go and change then." You went back to the store Jane accompanied you. Tom turned to Harrison. 
"It's a blood curse." 
"But who did this?" 
"There's only one who I know is capable of doing this actually three." Tom ticked his jaw frowning. 
"We need to break the curse or she will grow weaker."
"A regimen of salt water baths and reversing candles over the course of a couple weeks would do the trick. But the problem is she doesn't believe in these things and will think we are crazy."
"Then we have to find someone whom she will listen to without saying a word.''
"It has to be her mother. Haz once we take her home whenever you get the chance use compulsion on Mrs. Warren and compel her to  persuade Y/N to follow the ritual. I know it's wrong but we don't have any other option."
You walked out changed from your uniform to your normal clothes Jane was holding you. 
"C'mon love I got you." Tom wrapped his arm around your shoulder and took you to his car. He made you sit in the back seat then he sat beside you. You leaned your head on his shoulder closing your eyes as Harrison drove the car. The whole drive Tom had his hand wrapped around you in a comforting manner as he frowned deeply with concern in his eyes. Reaching your house he helped you get out of the car and carried you inside. 
"Oh my God! What happened?'' your mother panicked. 
"She wasn't feeling well." Tom informed. 
"Take her to her room." she ordered. 
"Sure Mrs. Warren." Tom carried you to your room. 
"Sorry but who are you guys?" Martha directed her question to Harrison. Before he could think of an answer Erica answered for him.
"They are Y/N's new classmates, aunt I have already met the other one you weren’t here that time."
"Oh I see thank you for bringing her safely back home."
"Oh no need to thank us she is our friend it's our duty to look after her."
Tom made you lay down on your bed tucking you inside your blanket and gently stroked your forehead as you fell asleep. After making sure that you were sleeping soundly Tom got up and went to your bathroom and dipped his hand in the water of the bathtub swirling it in a circular motion and chanted. 
"If truly she is cursed today, let water wash the hex away. If truly she is cursed today, let water wash the hex away.'' 
He stepped out of your bathroom  and saw Harrison standing beside your bed. 
"Job done." Harrison reported to Tom. 
"Yeah I also enchanted the water now only she needs to take a bath as soon as she wakes up." 
"I think we should go for now."
"Yeah I also have some unfinished business to attend." Tom looked at you for one last time placing a soft kiss on your forehead. 
"You will be as bright as the sunshine tomorrow, my love. I'll never let any harm come your way in future." Saying that he left with Harrison. 
"I’m not leaving them so easily Haz. They are going to pay for what they did to Y/N." Tom grumbled while he searched for a perfect spot in the forest to execute his plan. 
It was around evening Laura was strolling in the forest. An eerie silence prevailed; only the distant calls of coyotes could be heard in short intervals. Tom and Harrison were hiding behind the trees waiting for Laura to approach the exact spot where they wanted her to be and the moment she was at the spot. 
"Abi in malem cursem." Tom muttered.
"Aaaahh!!!" Laura screamed in pain as she felt something pierce her foot holding her to the ground the more she struggled to set free the more it hurted and blood came gushing out her foot. Tom and Harrison appeared from behind the trees.
"Tom what the heaven!! Why are you doing this to me?" Laura cried out in pain.
"You know very well why!" He barked.
"We did what was needed to be done, that half breed doesn't deserve to be alive. She's a disgrace to our community."
"If she doesn't deserve to live then so do you!" Tom focused on the trap which doubled up the pain making Laura scream on the top of her lungs. 
"Tom let go of my sister!" Zendaya yelled panting as she came running to her rescue.
"Give me one good reason for not doing the same to you." he spat. 
"Tom have you gone out of your mind! You will go against your own kind for a mortal?" 
"You know very well what I'm capable of Z which includes draining every ounce of blood from Laura's body."
"The coven will not spare you."
"So will you for trying to kill an innocent girl and you know the punishment Z."
"You're not gonna do that, are you? She asked in disbelief because in spite of the sour relationship with the mortals the coven had set rules against hurting innocent humans. 
"Oh I might take this matter to father but I have a better offer. Let's make a deal I leave her and you have to do what I say." 
"What do you want me to do?" 
"You are in position to question Z. Just say yes or no."
"Okay fine, I'll do whatever you want me to do. Now let her go." 
"Good." 
Tom mumbled a reversing spell which set Laura free from the trap. She collapsed on the ground holding her foot Zendaya ran to her aid. 
"And stay away from Y/N because next time I will not be this generous." he warned and turned to leave. 
"You are making a grave mistake Tom trying to protect that weakling.'' 
"That’s none of your business Z.'' 
After you woke up your mother under Harrison’s compulsion made you complete the curse removal ritual, you were now sitting in your bathtub body dipped in salt water surrounded by numerous scented candles with an utterly bored expression on your face.
"I'm never going to get drunk again." You muttered to yourself picking up an extinguished candle in your hand from beside you. You zoned out eyes trained on the wick of the candle and suddenly the candle caught fire, you snapped out of your daze as the flame flared in its intensity. 
"Holy shit!!" you shrieked dropping the candle in the water panicking. You blinked a few times holding on to your head. You tried to convince yourself that you were just tired and seeing things as you got out of the water hurriedly. 
..............
The next day you were fresh as a daisy, full of energy. You went to visit your dad at the registrar in the morning. 
"Hey dad what's up?" 
"Nothing peanut just editing and stuff with the articles." 
"Can I help?" 
"Yeah sure why not this is all gonna be yours after a few years anyways." You sat on a chair and started arranging the articles in order. 
"This case is really blowing my mind though!" Fred blew out his cheeks in agony pacing back and forth in the room. . 
"What case?" you frowned. 
"These." He placed some police investigation reports on the table in front of you. You examined each of the reports. 
"People going missing in mystic woods, what's so tricky in this?" 
"Observe the pattern of the incidents it's always once in a month and the place of disappearance all near the Runeshire winery which are jointly owned by the Holland's and Osterfield's. I suspect they have something to do with these missing people."
"Holland as in Tom Holland?" you questioned him. 
"Yeah how do you know him?" 
"He is in my class." 
"What?!" 
"Yeah he and his best friend Harrison joined our college a few weeks back. But they seem to be really good guys."
"Appearances can sometimes be deceiving, always remember that Y/N."
"If only I could get access inside their estate and try to find some evidence." He mumbled. 
"I can do it for you. I have books to return to him anyways." You offered. 
"Honey they are kind of shady. I can't allow you to go there all by yourself."
"I'll be fine dad. Tom is a good friend of mine and I trust him. And I also believe they have nothing to do with these cases. But for your satisfaction let me go and check they will not suspect anything if I go so just tell me what I need to do." and as per your father's instruction you were now standing in front of the Holland's residence. 
Ivy and ferns grew through the crevices of the old winding stone path, which led directly to the colossal structure. The mansion loomed proudly behind creaky iron gates, flanked by rows of skeletal trees crowned in crimson, swaying gently to the chilly autumn wind. You walked inside admiring the surroundings at its threshold stood the delicate marble fountain, the soft gurgling of the clear water melodic as it resonated in the surrounding silence. It was a big mansion more like a palace from Victorian times quite old which gave out some eerie vibes. You took a deep breath gathering some courage and rang the doorbell. The door opened and a young boy appeared from behind. He was most probably in his teens and shared the same facial resemblance to Tom. Must be one of his brothers you assumed as you introduced yourself.
"Umm Hi I'm Y/N Y/L/N. A friend of Tom. We are in the same class. I came to return these to him." You showed him the books.
"Who's it Paddy?" You heard a male voice enquire from inside.
"Umm one of Tom's friends."
"Which friend?" Harry walked to the front door and a wave of shock coursed through his face seeing you as if he saw a ghost. His eyes were slightly widened still trying to process what he was seeing.
"Hello." You greeted the curly haired brunette timidly.
"Oh hey! Y/N!" Harrison chirped from behind breaking Harry from his daze.
"Hey Haz." You finally felt relieved seeing someone familiar.
"Come in!" 
"I thought you would never ask." You quipped giving a quick glance to Harry and Paddy. Harrison led you inside the house and you were stunned at the grandeur of the interiors. The house was stashed with exquisite and expensive articles each item worth hundreds of thousands of dollars you thought. 
"Is this a living room?" you questioned in disbelief looking at the size of the room.
"Living room, parlour whatever you want to say." Harrison half shrugged. 
"Dude two of my houses could fit in here." You chuckled.
"Tom's in the shower you can wait here or I can take you to his room if you want." he gave a sly smirk. You understood the reference a sly smirk forming on your face as well. 
"No thanks I'm fine waiting here Harrison anyway I had some work on this side of the town so thought to stop by and return his books that's all." 
"As you wish." he shrugged. 
"I heard we have a very pretty guest in our house." You turned to look at a red haired middle aged woman, a warm welcoming smile adorned her face. 
"She is Tom's mother." Harrison whispered in your ear. You straightened yourself. 
"Hello Mrs Holland nice to meet you. Sorry for dropping in without prior notice didn't mean any trouble."
"It's totally fine dear. It's good to meet you."
"And I really want to thank you too for lending these books. They came really handy with completing our assignment." 
"I'm glad they came into good use." Her eyes twinkled as her gaze shifted behind you. 
"Oh Tom! look who is here." You turned to find Tom coming down the stairs. 
''Hey Y/N" he said breathily. His eyes sparkled seeing you all bubbly and cheerful after last day’s incident.
"Hi Tom." your heart fluttered as you soaked in his freshly showered appearance. He looked so radiant in trousers and a black shirt sleeves rolled up giving quite a view of his strong veiny arms, his hair slightly wet beads of water dripping from them. He smelled good which intoxicated your senses. You shook off your thoughts and spoke up. 
"Just came to return these sorry for not calling you beforehand." Before Tom could say something you were interrupted by another male voice. 
"That's fine dear you are always welcome at this house." You turned to find a middle aged man. It wasn't hard for you to deduce that he was Tom's father. Tom was having a hard time at your sudden visit to his house because nobody knew about you as well as of him venturing out to the mortal world in search of you. He gulped nervously seeing his father. 
"Let me introduce myself Dominic Holland, owner of Runeshire winery and Tom's father."
"Nice to meet you Mr. Holland." You gave a wide smile. 
"Tom why don't you go and give a tour of our winery to your lovely friend."
"Sure-sure father." Tom stuttered. 
"Come with me Y/N you'll love it.”
Tom gave you a tour around the whole estate. You walked past some picturesque vineyards chit chatting about his family history and how they started this business. Then he took you to the warehouse where their intoxicating delicacy is being produced and stored. Lines of barrels of wine stacked together a fruity aroma looming in the room which itself gave away about its best quality.
"And this is what we make our living out of." Tom announced proudly as you looked around intrigued.
''Come with me, I'll show you something" He showed you a wooden door which led to a secret cellar downstairs. 
"You sure you aren't going to kill me for dropping by your house unannounced?" you joked looking at him skeptically. He rolled his eyes and shook his head smiling. You followed him downstairs. The cellar was filled with more barrels of wine. 
"These are the finest wines of our winery aged to perfection and only reserved for the family and inner circle." 
"Great!" 
"Wanna taste?"
"Am I allowed?" 
"You are kind of an inner circle now, so yes." He shrugged. He went to grab two wine glasses and ran the tap from the wine barrel to fill the glasses. He handed you one. You clink your glasses and take a sip from it.  You never had anything like this before in your life, the rich taste just touched your soul,
"Mmm this. is. so good!" you praised.
"Here." He handed you a bottle of wine.
"What's this for?" you knitted your brows. 
"I went to your house that day empty handed, not a nice impression in front of your parents I guess." 
"You are not my boyfriend Thomas." You narrowed your eyes smirking.
“But son of the owner of the Runeshire winery kind of against our reputation.” he grinned.
“Okay I’m taking it.” It was time for you to leave your job of sneaking around them was done and you were more than relieved that you didn't find anything suspicious.
"It was nice having you here wish you would have stayed for lunch."
"I would love to but not today I promised my mom to return early. Maybe next time. Bye then see you later." 
"Bye love." He walked you back to the front gates and bid you goodbye.
Tom entered his house blushing smiling to himself you just made his day  but the happiness was short lived because he was met with questioning stares from his family wanting explanation of what just happened. 
"So when did you plan on telling us?”
"Father, I just thought it wasn't the right time."
"How can you be so irresponsible, Tom , going into the mortal world? and you took Harrison with you too." 
"Father it's Amber I had to go."
"I know you have a soft spot for her but she is a mortal."
"Half mortal father, she is a half witch too."
"That doesn't change the fact that she is not one of us, mortal blood runs in her body she will age and die eventually one day. What will you do then?" 
"Dark baptism." Agatha interrupted in between. 
"What do you mean Lady Layman?" 
"Get her baptised in the name of our Dark Lord, I’m sure he will grant her powers and she will be just one of us."
"She would never agree to this." Tom said dismissively. 
"Then you have to make her agree to this Thomas or else you have to forget her forever." Tom's father gave him an ultimatum. 
..............
Tom and Harrison were sitting in his room thinking about what to do now as Zendaya appeared.
"Well well all this hush hush to keep her a secret gone to waste. Guess what Amber just blew her cover herself oh sorry Y/N was it?" Zendaya jabbed. 
"Z for once in your life can you stop being a mean bitch you are?" Harrison scoffed. 
"Aww can't my ex would be fiance's lady love do this much for him? oh sorry my mistake she already has someone else in her life."
"Are you done?" Tom asked irritatedly. 
"Because I think it's time for you to do what I said." 
"What do you mean?" Zendaya frowned.
"Did you forget about the deal we had? It’s time.'' 
"What do you want me to do?"
"Nothing you don’t like. Just need to see how good your seduction skills are." 
"You are not serious are you?" Tom just stared coldly and she got her answer.
"Okay fine." 
It was the day of the decade dance at your college. Everybody dressed themselves taking inspiration from the 90′s era neon colours, halter neck crop tops, slip dresses, skater dresses, button down shirts, drainpipe jeans etc. You were sitting alone at the bleachers because your boyfriend was nowhere to be seen after he left you to get some drinks. You watched Jane dancing having fun with Harrison. You felt happy that finally she found her the love of her life.
Secret love playing......
“What’s with that long face?” Tom quipped.
“None of your business.” you snickered.
“To that I would like to remind you that I'm always ready to be your boyfriend’s replacement.” He offered. You arched a sly brow at him.
“Shall we?” “Okay fine.” you sighed holding onto his hand.
When you're with him, do you call his name Like you do when you're with me? Does it feel the same? Would you leave if I was ready to settle down Or would you play it safe and stay?
You weaved your fingers into his long slender ones another hand holding on to his shoulder. His other hand went to hold you around your waist swaying sideways to the music.
Girl, you know this We got a love that is hopeless
Jane's words kept replaying in your mind. “You can't string along with both of them you have to choose.” but you can't be unfaithful to Cole. He doesn't deserve this. It is a passing affair you will get over it, you have to you thought. You witnessed the lifestyle Tom is used to and you are no match to him. So thinking of a thinnest possibility that you can be together is futile. 
Why can't you hold me in the street? Why can't I kiss you on the dance floor? I wish that it could be like that Why can't we be like that? 'Cause I'm yours
Tom was happy for a reason. After tonight one of the bonds that's keeping you tied up to this world will soon be torn apart. The only remorse he feels is that you will get hurt in the process. He is being selfish he knows, he was always selfish when it came to you. But he knows whatever is going to happen is for your own good. You promised him you would come back and that is what he is doing bringing you back to your real self, to him. The music stopped and you stepped away from him.
"I think I should go and find Cole its being quite long he didn't return." 
"Yeah sure." You went to look for Cole but he was nowhere to be found. The only place left for you to check was terrace on the West Wing. You went their and saw Tom walking back from that direction
"Hey!" you called out .Tom was startled at first then he questioned you back. 
"Hey where are you going?" 
"To see if Cole is there or not. I couldn't find him anywhere.'' 
"I think you should not go there." 
"Why?" 
"Uh nothing just some couple making out quite passionately, really weirded me out.” He chuckled.
“let's go inside Y/N, Cole isn't there." He ushered you back to the hall.
"It's okay I don't feel awkward with  people making out. I'll quickly just go and check." 
"But Y/N! Wait!" Before Tom could stop you the damage was already done. You couldn't believe what you were seeing. It was Cole with some girl, their lips practically glued to each other, tongues slipping into each other's mouth moaning and panting. You felt disgusted at the view. Never in your life you thought that Cole will do such a thing to you. Jane was right you were wasting your time on him. All this time you were questioning your moral compass for having feelings for another man and he turned out to be the unfaithful one. 
"You bloody cheater!!" You spat. Cole was startled as he broke the kiss bug eyed to find Zendaya smirking devilishly at him wiping the corner of her lips with her thumb. 
"Who the hell are you?!" He pushed her away. He looked between you and Zendaya in confusion. 
"But- but how can this happen? It was you then where the hell she came from?." 
"You fucking Liar! Just stop with your good act already" you snarled
"Y/N I swear I don't know where she came from." Cole grabbed onto both of your hands desperately trying to make you understand but you were overcome with anger as you pushed him hard. 
"Go to hell!" You stomped off from there with Tom following you. 
You were fuming with rage. And getting drunk you thought was the last resort to get over this heartbreak. You walked up to the drinks counter and started gulping down shots one after the other. You felt that wasn't enough for you as you took a whole bottle of vodka and started drinking from it. 
"Y/N wait no!" Tom snatched the bottle from your hand. You glowered at him angrily. Which made him step back from you in fear, your eyes scared him. They weren't your usual eye color instead they were replaced with burning red hot fiery orbs. He remembered Helena's warning about not to instigate you and the dangerous consequences it can lead to. He quickly hugged you, caressing the back your head soothingly and pecking your forehead. 
"Ssh, Ssh It's alright love.”
“I don't know what's happening to me.” you mumbled face buried into his chest.
“There's nothing to get upset about, calm down, everything will be fine. He doesn't deserve you. I'm here don’t worry" He whispered sweet nothing in your ears trying to cool your temper. You eventually were back to your usual self making Tom heave a sigh of relief. But you were still drunk as you were blabbering random shit. 
"That's enough for today we should go home now." He dragged you out to the corridors. 
"No!" You snatched your hand from his grip. 
"C'mon love, don't be so stubborn let's get you home. You are not in your ownself." He frowned. You walked up to him stumbling a little looking at him with doe eyes. Tom hold on to you trying to steady you down.
"Has anyone ever told you how ridiculously cute and handsome you are?" Tom found the drunk you cute and funny as he played along.
"Yes, you Y/N 25 years ago." he chuckled. 
"Really?.. Then did I kiss you after saying that?" 
"No, Y/N."
"Then I definitely owe you a kiss, my cutie honey bear." You grabbed his face with your hands pouting your lips to kiss him. 
"Y/N you are drunk we should not do this." he pulled his face away.
"Why not? If that moron can kiss someone else, why can't I?" you whined.
"And I know you want this too, what do you think I don't get why you're always there around me? We girls know way before when a guy is interested in us." Tom gulped nervously and suddenly you felt nauseous as you threw up near the bushes outside the corridor. After you were done your body was totally drained out Tom picked you up in princess style and carried you back to his car and took you home.
Tom carried you his hands across your body as you leaned onto him. He rang the doorbell and Erica opened the door. She tsked rolling her eyes seeing you in such a disoriented condition. Without a word she motioned Tom to take you inside. He carried you to your room and laid you on your bed and then stood outside the room so that Erica could change your clothes. Erica came out after a while. 
''You have kind of become a body bearer." Erica chuckled making Tom smile. 
"This is what I was warning you, she is a little impulsive when she gets upset. Thankfully uncle and aunt are not here to see her like this" she sighed. 
"She's just angry. Cole shouldn't have done that." 
"Thanks for looking out for my sister." 
"She's a good friend of mine" 
"Oh C'mon stop with the good friend act already, I know you like her."
"Uh no, no it's - it's nothing like that." he stammered. 
"You really think I'm gonna buy that." Erica arched her brow. "That longing stares, that mutual pining I have gone through it all at one point of my life honey, I know." 
"Gonna say your goodbyes?" She asked. Tom scratches the back of his neck unsure of what to say.
"Go ahead." Erica said assuring him. He walked inside your room and sat beside your sleeping figure. 
"Hey darling." he cooed softly placing his hand on your cheek gently brushing your hair away from your face. You looked so innocent and pure which melts his heart. 
"Sleep well and I'm sorry for tonight." he turned to leave but felt a pull in his hand as you sat up grabbing on to his wrist. 
"Stay. Pleaase…" you made a sad face. And how can he leave you like this. Without a second thought Tom got in the bed lying down beside you. You snuggled close to him resting yourself on his broad chest holding on to his hand. He cradled you in his arm gently threading his fingers through your hair. He stared at you intently. His face dropped as he sighed deeply, a sense of guilt growing in him. Because he was the one behind your bitter fallout with Cole. As per their deal Zendaya with the help of glamour spell turned herself to look like you and lure Cole out. Poor Cole never got the slightest hint that it was Zendaya who was dancing with him the whole time not you. 
"You're being extra clingy tonight Y/N." Cole chuckled. 
"Not my fault if my man looks extra delicious tonight." You said with lust blown eyes. 
"Just wanna savor onto these tender lips" you kissed him fervently. And then dragged him out of the hall to the terrace and grabbed onto his shirt slamming your lips to his devouring him. But alas if he would have known that he is being tricked so that his image gets maligned in your eyes. So that you start hating him and break up with him.
He knew whatever he did today was wrong he hurt you but your bonds with the mortal world had to be broken because as soon as they will come to know about your true identity they will try to kill you and he won’t let that happen this time. And after what he witnessed tonight, the slightest hint that he got of that your powers are soon going to come back was enough for him to know that he can't risk it anymore. The door was open as Erica came in to check up on you and found you two all cuddled up. She tapped on the door gently with a smirk. Tom was snapped out of his thoughts as he hastily tried to sit up. But Erica stopped him waving her hand and mouthed to him. 
"It's ok.. Take care of her." he nodded smiling. Erica went away closing the door. Tom sighed, turning his attention to you, still gently stroking your hair and closed his eyes dozing off to sleep. After so many years he is finally going to have a good night's sleep in your warm embrace . 
……….. 
You squinted as the sun rays hit your face, fluttering your eyes open. The sheets were cold as you got up to an empty bed. You went downstairs and heard some noise coming from the kitchen. You made your way to the kitchen to find Tom cooking breakfast.
"Am I still drunk or my sister turned into you." You joked. 
"Good morning." 
“Morning” you yawned. “Didn’t know you were a chef too. I'm a horrible cook by the way.” you chuckled.
“Yeah Tom offered to help and I couldn't refuse the offer of getting one day off from cooking duties.” Erica chuckled from behind. You went up to her and whispered in her ears.
"Why is he here?" 
"Because your clingy ass didn't let him go. Thank God your parents are nit here."
“You let us sleep together on the same bed?” you seethed.
"You know he seems to be a nice guy." 
"Seriously I just broke up with my long time boyfriend last night and you are trying to set me up with another guy the next day?"
"And I’m glad you finally broke up with that dumbass. And I also know you secretly like Tom. C’mon I’m just being a supportive sister."
“You're unbelievable” you scoffed and went back to the kitchen 
"Hey I don't remember much of it from last night but if I did or said anything wrong I'm sorry."
"Hmm apart from trying to kiss me and almost puking on me it's ok I don't mind." your face turned red in embarrassment.
“It's okay darling, glad to know that you find me cute.” he handed you your breakfast giving you a subtle wink mischievously.
“That cheeky bastard” you thought.

I Need You (p.p)
Tumblr media
Word Count: 2,171
Warnings: angst? Little bits of fluff?
A/N: This was loosely inspired by an episode of Gilmore Girls 😂 I hope y'all enjoy and if ya do, I'd definitely love some feedback 💕 also shout-out to @hoe-forharry and @theadventurousqueen for reading this and helping me out 💖
Dealing with a breaking up was one of the hardest things you've ever had to do.
Barely a full twenty-four hours had passed, mostly spent in your pajamas, practically permanent tear stains on your cheeks from all the crying, and all you wanted was to be with the one person who could always make you feel safe; your best friend.
But what is one supposed to do when their best friend just happens to be the one that broke their heart in the first place?
You can't even remember how the argument started. One moment you were having a lovely dinner with the love of your life, prepared to have the movie marathon of a lifetime, and the next the two of you were spitting out things you were sure both of you would regret the next day. The night ended with your body going completely numb as you heard the words, "I think we need to break up," come out of Peter's mouth.
He was gone before you could manage to come up with a coherent thought, before you could beg him to stop and talk things out with you. You stared at your apartment door for a good 20 minutes in shock, hoping he would come back. He never did. You crawled into bed shortly after, a heaviness in your chest as you started to cry.
You weren't sure how long you laid there, tears flooding your face, never stopping, the numbness eventually going, leaving pure misery around to linger and force you to replay his last words to you in your head over and over. You fell asleep shortly after, only to continue the process again in the morning when you woke up to an empty bed and realized this was going to be your new normal from now on.
You tried everything to distract yourself. Well, everything that was within the vicinity of your bed, which included watching tv, reading your psychology textbook, and scrolling on your phone until you were forced to leave it alone to charge.
Nothing really worked, your mind coming back to Peter each time. You had to see him, talk to him, anything. You just needed him.
Before you knew it, you were unlocking your phone with a shaky hand, your fingers immediately tapping over the phone icon, Peter's number the first one to show on your call log. You hesitated over his name. Were you really about to call him?
Your body seemed to decide for you, pressing down on his contact before you could even really process or talk yourself out of it.
It rang a few times before disappointingly going to voicemail. You would've hung up if it wasn't for Peter's cheery voice ringing through your ears as his voicemail message started playing.
"Hey, it's Peter! Please lea-" you suddenly heard your own voice, saying something unintelligible in the background, making Peter laugh.
"Two seconds, babe, I'm trying to set up my-oh shit, it's still going. Um," you must've moved closer to him, your voice becoming clear as day you said "leave a message after the beep" with him, the two of you a mess of giggles.
You sounded so happy. What had changed from then to lead to heartbreak you were feeling now?
Your eyes were watering as you heard the sound of the beep.
"H-hey, Peter. It's me," you took a deep breath, trying to calm yourself, "Um, I know it's against protocol to call your ex after a break up, especially when it's only been a day, but I usually have my best friend here to talk me out of doing that."
You could feel the small resolve you had starting to break down, "I'm not really doing too great right now and I really need my best friend. Could you please come over? I need you, Pete."
You were full on crying now, sniffling in between your words. You were sure you were barely making sense at this point, "I-Um, please? Come here?"
Something inside of you snapped and you came to your senses, a gasp escaping your lips as you immediately hung up the phone. You felt so humiliated, how could you do that?
You threw yourself back on your bed with a groan, hoping more than anything that Peter would somehow not get that voicemail and you could save yourself from dying of embarrassment.
You spent the next hour contemplating your options on keeping Peter from hearing that message, your best ones being somehow getting into his apartment and deleting it or learning how to hack into his phone. Though you figured by this point he either hadn't heard it or had and didn't care. You almost hoped it was the latter, feeling guilty for calling him in the first place.
Suddenly there was a familiar tap on your window and you looked up to find your favorite masked hero sitting on the fire escape, giving you an awkward wave when your eyes met his. You rushed over to let him in, for a moment feeling like everything was normal.
"You're here," you mumbled, feeling breathless as you backed away to give him some space.
You watched as Peter crawled in, very ungracefully, immediately pulling off his mask, "I'm sorry it took me so long to get here, I was out patrolling and Mr. Stark said if I broke another phone, he would make me use an old flip phone."
You would've laughed if you weren't in complete awe of the boy standing in front of you, the one who no matter what, would always have your heart. "I just can't-you're here."
"Of course I'm here," he hesitantly reached out, as if contemplating what he was about to do, before setting his hand on your cheek, "Are you okay?"
Out of habit, you leaned into hand, savoring the feeling of his skin against yours. You sighed both out of content and sadness, "I could be better."
"Yeah, me too."
He stepped away from you, leaving an aching feeling in your tummy at the lack of contact. He took in your appearance, making you look away self-consciously. You knew you looked like a mess, with your puffy, red eyes, and makeup smudged around your face. Your room didn't look much better, wrappers and tissues thrown across your bed, some on your floor. You didn't have to look at him to know Peter most likely had a look of concern and probably pity on his face.
"Have you eaten any real food today?"
You gave him your signature guilty smile, "Do mini kitkats and oreos count as real food?"
He sighed, "I'm ordering dominos."
"Peter, wait," you gently touched his arm, wanting to feel him under your fingertips one last time before saying what you were sure you would regret later, "You should go. It was selfish of me to call you like that and I feel horrible. I'm sorry."
Peter looked down, "Don't, feel horrible, I mean. I would be lying if I said I didn't need this, need you, too."
"Oh."
You felt a pang of guilt in your heart at his words, realizing you'd been so selfish you hadn't thought that Peter would be hurting too.
"So, uh, pizza," he rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly, "Pepperoni and bacon?"
"Yep! Can we get those wannabe garlic knot ball things too?"
"Is that even a question? Of course we can."
You smiled, your first smile of the day. You knew nothing was normal and this was a temporary happiness, but a whole pizza and many episodes of friends later, that thought was far away in the back of your mind.
You found yourself laying beside Peter, you head on his chest and his fingers playing with your hair. You talked about everything, reminiscing about high school and your childhood together, all the embarrassing stories that haunted the both of you at night, the classes you were going to take when your next semester started in the fall, anything to avoid the topic of your break up.
"You wanna know how I found out you were Spider-Man?"
Peter paused his soothing movements on your scalp, "What are you talking about? I told you I was Spider-Man."
"Do you remember the first time I went and visited you at the Stark tower junior year? Well, Tony must've thought you told me, because he dragged me over to his lab to show me the new suit he was making for your birthday."
"Wait, so Mr. Stark spilled the beans and you never told me?"
"He made me promise not to!"
Peter pulled away from you, dramatically laying back against your pillow, a hand clutching his chest, causing a burst of laughter to escape from your lips. "I'm offended! How could side with Mr. Stark over your boy-" he cut himself off with a cough, a blush on his cheeks as he realized what he was about to say, "um, best friend."
The air seemed to shift, that heaviness from the night before making a reappearance. You wanted to change the subject, make him laugh and see his heart stopping smile once more, but now that it was on your mind, you knew you couldn't put off talking about it anymore.
So much for avoiding the breakup.
"Peter," you sat up, crossing your legs underneath you, "I think we have to-"
"I know."
Your teeth tugged on your lips nervously as you heard Peter take a deep breath. You kept your eyes glued to your bedsheets, hoping if you didn't look at him you'd refrain from crying.
"I'm not happy anymore."
"With me?" You held your breath, waiting for the confirmation you knew would shatter your heart into tinier pieces than it already was.
"No! I-I love you, y/n. I always have."
Your eyes shot up at him, full of hurt and confusion. "I don't understand?"
"You're one of the few things I've always been sure about, a constant in my life I can always count on, but right now, you're all I'm sure about and I need some time to figure everything out."
"Maybe, I could help?"
He shook his head, "This is something I have to do on my own."
You didn't know what to say, a hundred thoughts going through your head. The insecure part of you questioned his explanation, what if was just trying to spare your feelings?
No, you knew Peter wouldn't lie to you, not unless he was trying to protect you.
You wanted to ask him more about what was going on with him, he'd always come to you when he was in trouble before, but you didn't want to push him.
"Maybe I should go," Peter said, bringing you out of your thoughts.
"No, please don't," you pleaded, "I want you here."
You shifted, laying back down beside him. You laced your fingers through his, a small wave of relief washing over you when he didn't pull his hand away. "Can we pretend everything's normal for tonight?"
"I'd like that."
In hindsight it was probably a bad idea, but neither of you didn't care. How could you when you got to spend the night in Peter's arms?
You stayed up almost all night, kissing, talking, being wrapped up with each like you would any other day. The two of you fell asleep around 4 am, Peter's head nuzzled into the crook of your neck, his arm around your waist. You knew in the morning the hurt would be back and you'd have to deal with it on your own, but at least you were content, that feeling following you in your dreams.
Peter was the first one to wake up, the small bit of sunshine peeking through your blinds hitting his face. You looked so peaceful beside him, mouth slightly ajar, letting out the softest breaths, the sunlight behind you making you glow. He wished more than anything he could stay.
He placed a gentle kiss on your forehead, softly whispering, “I love you,” against your skin, before carefully crawling out of bed. He quickly changed out of the clothes you'd given him last night, his clothes, your favorite shirt and pair of sweats you'd stolen from him a long time ago, and back into his suit.
Pulling his mask over his head, he slipped out the window, giving your sleeping figure one last look before closing it behind him. He hesitated on the fire escape, thinking about the lies he told you last night. He considered telling you the truth, telling you about the impending doom on it's way to shred the whole world apart and how he was apart of the solution to stop it.
'It's safer for her not to know,' he thought, convincing himself he was making the right decision, even if it meant losing precious time with you.
As he started swinging away, he sent out a silent prayer, hoping he'd come back from it all to make it up to you.

Author's note: I was gonna post this later but people were getting antsy so I decided to post this first so enjoy
forgive me for any mistakes
And trust me <3
Stay for Me
Leah stepped out of the subway on to the platform and started walking towards the familiar apartment complex where she had spent most of her time in Ethan's absence.
During the entire walk, her brain was racing and her heart beat had spiked up due to the anticipation and anxiety.
It's the most logical option Leah. It's okay, don't be scared. Feelings are fleeting. You will get over him eventually. Her conscience tried to comfort her, but it was of no help whatsoever.
She entered the lift and pressed the button which would take her to his apartment. Though the ride was short, her palms felt sweaty and her throat was parched.
She stepped out and knocked on the door and waited for him to open it as she wiped her palms on her tights.
He opened the door, and Leah looked up to meet his eyes.
"Leah?"
"I'm an absolute idiot. I'm so sorry." She rambled.
"What? First of all come in." Concern was etched in his beautiful eyes as he opened the door wider so that she could enter.
"I have made my decision."
He winced, bracing himself. "You are gonna stay with him, right?"
"What? No!" She grasped his hands in her and looked up at him.
"it's you Bryce... It's always been you."
There was pin drop silence. Leah's heart thundered as the silence continued to stretch between them.
"Bryce, what aren't you saying anything?" Leah's voice cracked which seemed to shake him out of his reverie.
"Leah... No matter how much that makes me happy... No."
"No?! What no?"
He sat on the sofa while Leah continued standing, her eyes following every step. "Come sit down. We are due for a chat."
She sat down on the seat next to him and turned towards him, completely bewildered. "No? But.. but I don't understand this?"
She started counting the pros on her fingers. "We are literally perfect for each other. You are the number one surgeon of your batch. I'm the number one diagnostician of my batch. We both like the same things and music. I like you... You like me.. so why not?"
Bryce chuckled and shook his head as he played with his fingers. "Leah we only look good on paper."
"Bu-"
"Leah what you described is external factors which can fluctuate with time. We literally are carbon copies of each other."
"So what's wrong with that? Isn't it better that way?"
"Leah, over time all these factors will cancel out each other and we would just be a boring couple who is a shadow of one another. This 'feelings' we have now will change into bitterness, sadness and distance. And I don't want that."
His eyes landed on hers and he gave a small smile. "The perfect relationship is when you complement one another. Like fire and water. Like Ying and Yang. And I have see that between you and Ethan."
Leah looked down, her throat choking up with emotions.
"But... I decided to go with my logic and this is the right option. No hurt, no pain-"
"-No love, No happiness. Leah, love is not a application of logic. It's what you feel. It want the heart wants." Bryce finished the statement and sighed.
"You may have never spoken about it but anyone can see how head over heels the both of you are for each other. I have noticed the way his eyes brighten when you entre the room. Or the way your smile illuminates a thousand times more when he calls your name."
"Wait... Everyone noticed it?"
Rolling his eyes, he subtly punched her shoulder lightly. "Everyone knew except the two of you. You both have your head so far up your asses that you didn't even notice a bet was going on around."
"A BET?!"" Leah exclaimed.
"Yap. Hell, 90% of the people put a bet that you would end up with Ramsey. But you chose me. Many people lost a lot of money."
Leah groaned as she face palmed. "I'm so embarrassed."
"Don't be. That's why they say love is blind."
Dragging her hands down her face she turned towards him. "But if you knew I had feelings for Ethan... Why did you still choose to date me?"
A small smile etched on his face. "Like I said love is blind. I chose to stay in denial and swooped in when you were hurting. I'm sorry."
"No, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have played you."
"Shut up. You didn't play me. In fact you were one of the best girlfriends I have had. I knew the risks and I still pursued you."
Leah let out a deep sigh as she leaned on her knees.
"So what now?"
"Well. I suggest we call quits because neither of us would be happy."
"But what about you?"
"What about me? It's been a privilege to have my heart broken by you."
Leah narrowed her eyes at the statement and Bryce guffawed. "You know I love to quote TFIOS and I saw the opportunity and I had to."
"Bryce."
"Yeah yeah... I will be fine... Not now, but eventually. You are my best friend first and seeing you happy is all I want. Not gonna lie, I hope that I can find the kind of love you share with Ethan."
"I know that the guy upstairs has a plan for an amazing guy like you."
"Fingers crossed."
They both got up, and Bryce walked her to the door. Leah was still in deep thought but it was relief and lightness in her step.
Turning towards him, she placed a hand on the door frame. "Are you sure you are gonna be okay? I'm so sorry-
"Leah Marianne Garcia. Get the fuck our if here and get your man."
Leah gave h a huge grin and wrapped her arms around him in gratitude. "I only wish the best for you, Queen B."
"Right back at ya, Lee Lee."
------------------------------------------------------
Running.
She was running hard and fast down the empty streets of Boston. Her darned luck made her miss the last train to Ethan's place so she decided to take off running.
Her converse clad feet stomped on the wet slippery ground, never once slowing down.
Which tuned out to be bad idea because when she turned the corner to Ethan's street, she slipped and tripped, which resulted in her scraping her knees and her elbows on the rough pavement.
"Son of a bitch!!" Leah groaned as she painfully rose on her feet and tried to assess the damage.
Her tights were ripped at the knees, blood gushing down. There were tiny scratches on her palms and abrasions on her elbows.
I hope no one saw my epic fai-
"Sunshine?"
Great. Nice timing you got there god.
She turned around and saw Ethan standing there, with Jenner at his feet. Jenner immediately reached out to Leah, with an excited bark but was restrained by her leash.
He bent down and unclipped the leash from her collar. "Easy there girl. Now go."
Jenner excitedly rushed to her and stood on her hind paws and pressed her paws on Leah's waist, as if it were trying to give her a hug.
"Hello girl. how I have missed youuu. Who has been a good girl?" She asked to which Jenner barked. "That's right. You have been a good girl." She scratched the back of her ears and Jenner got back down on all fours, circling around her, sniffing.
"You came?" His voice wafted over to her.
Leah looked up, a soft smile on her face. "Yeah. I had to. We need to talk."
"Lets go up." he said, as he walked towards her.
She proceeded to walk, only to remember about her injured, bleeding knees. She stumbled and Ethan reached out to grasp her elbow, which was a bad idea because she yelped out in pain.
"Are you okay?" He asked as he surveyed her entire body, his eyes widening at the injuries on her knees and the elbows.
"Holy shit sunshine! You are bleeding. Why are you bleeding?"
"I was running and I slipped. Don't worry its just a scratch. It's not like I broke a leg or something." She said as she walked carefully.
Ethan wrapped an arm around her waist providing extra support, which Leah didn't have the heart to say no to. Together, with Jenner running circles around them, as if she was excited about the reunion, they walked to the lobby of the penthouse. They rode the elevator in silence, Ethan not once letting go of her which made her cheeks hot.
They reached the designated floor and walked towards the door. One entering, Ethan immediately rushed to the kitchen where he kept the first aid kit.  She sunk into the plush sofa and let out a sigh of relief.
As he poured antiseptic solution on the cotton, he gave instructions. "Take out your pants. I will just clean up these wounds and bandage them properly and then you can borrow something of mine because no matter how cool ripped jeans out this isn't going to wor-"
"Ethan you are overreacting. This is a small scratch-"
"God, sunshine! Will you stop being so stubborn?"
"Says Mr. I- will-walk- around- as-if- nothing's- happened- but- I- actually have a- ruptured- appendix." Leah scoffed which Ethan did not find funny. With an unamused expression he pressed the antiseptic on to the scratches on her elbow, which immediately burnt.
"Pinchewy!" She cried out.
"Yeah, right back at you. Didn't no one teach you as a child to not run on wet surfaces?"
Leah grumbled and looked the other way as he continued to work on her elbows.
After a moment of silence, Leah decided to speak about her reason to come here. "Bryce and I broke up."
She felt his piercing blue eyes land on her. "Sunshine I'm so sorry. It's all my fau-"
Interrupting him, she continued. "He decided to let me go because he knew that my stubborn ass won't date you without an incentive."
Sighing, she turned towards him, halting him in his work. "Ethan... You are a sarcastic son of a bitch, who is stubborn to a fault. Your head is so far up your ass that you don't even notice the subtle hints I send your way. You are arrogant but you also have the getaway pass because you are hot as fuck and are so damn intelligent."
"Thanks for the compliment?'
Leah chuckled as she placed her hand on his hand. "But... you are kind and you are passionate about saving lives. You may come across a harsh, but on the inside you are huge softie who cares about my success. You are a grump but, only I have been privileged to see your smile. There is so much good in you and you are such a great man. I could go on and on about the good in you but it would end up being a thesis report.
So in short, I just want to say that those are the many things I love about you."
Ethan's eyes widened, and hope and adoration poured into his eyes. He squeezed her hand as she continued. "Ethan, do you know why we work so well together? Its because we complement each other. Sure, those can lead to fights but, we always come out from those fights stronger. We are so strong and beautiful together."
She cupped his face and spoke. "So... Are you willing to give us another chance?"
Ethan's heart was bursting will joy and happiness. She wants me... She really wants me...
He cupped her cheek and brushed his thumb against her cheekbone. "Sunshine, I can be a hard-ass sometimes and let’s not get started on how emotionally challenged I am. I'm a dumbass for ignoring the lines of fate. Trying to resist the inevitable just caused us more pain and sadness.” 
“Sunshine, I can't promise that this relationship will be perfect. Hell, this is uncharted territory for me. We may have fights and times when I want to bang my head against the wall but there is one thing I promise you. I will fight for you always and I will love you unconditionally."
"So will you do me the honour of being my girlfriend?" He asked with a giddy smile.
"Hell yeah. You can't get rid of me that easily." They both reached forward and when their lips touched, sparks of happiness and love radiated between them. Ethan ran his hand against her soft cheeks while Leah ran her hand through his luscious brown hair. This wasn't any kiss.
This was a lover's kiss. A promise. A seal of fate.
But the moment didn't last that longed. Ethan's knees knocked against hers and she cried out in pain. "Ouch!"
The both of them laughed. "Lets get you fixed up before we move on to strenuous activities, okay?"
She smiled and kissed his cheek. “Yes doc.”
And finally, the two imperfect lovers were reunited.
bet y'all expressions would be like this
Tumblr media

Fake (Tamaki x Reader)
Pairing: Tamaki x Fem!Reader
Someone messaged me with the request: “I was thinking about if one of the boys had a fem friend and they are hanging out one day and some guy won't leave them alone so they act as if the boy is their boyfriend to make the guy go away and after the boy actually really liked being called her bf and they realize the feelings they had for them were not as platonic as they first thought? Always thought this was cute!!" They also gave me the option to do Bakugou or Tamaki, so I went with Tamaki
Genre: Fluff
Word count: 2,220
Tags:  @yuki-osaki​ @liviitehe​ @iamsoftsodonttoucheume-blog​ @bunnythepipsqueak​
a/n: Thank you for the request and the kind messages dear! SO sorry this one took a while, I wanted to take the time and do Tamaki properly and I was also generally just burnt out so I really hope I did it justice and you like it!
I meant to finish this last night because I thought I would keep it short, but instead it ended up being 2.2k words?? And I fell asleep writing it (no joke, when I woke up there was a huge line of 3s on my screen) and I finished it during the day today.
"I've always thought cotton candy was a magical type of snack," I comment, happily chomping away at the sugary treat melting in my mouth.  "It's the type of thing that makes you feel like a kid again!"
"Mm, I guess so," Tamaki responds, taking another bite of his takoyaki.
"Do you want a bite?"
The boy's indigo eyes barely gaze down and it before he immediately takes the bite for himself.  His munching really makes him look childish as the treat is supposed to do.  "I was never fond of cotton candy.  I guess I just naturally prefer animal treats because of my quirk."
"Yeah, that's understandable."  I stare off into the distance, eyeing the giant roller coaster looming in front of us.  My heart quickens at the sight, the anticipation building inside me.  "Tama, we gotta get on that coaster!"
At the word, his face goes completely blank.  "C-Coaster?"
"Come on Tama, please?" I whine.  "We've only been to all the carnival games and the mild rides, just one?"  I know my poor friend has terrible fear of...everything, but I gotta have my fun too!  And I wouldn't want to leave him out from my experiences, nor would I want to leave him alone in this crowded place.
His quivering figure attempts to breath in a sigh.  "O-Okay, but you have to hold onto me when we get on, okay?  You know how much I hate that h-high up."
I loop an arm around his shoulder, pulling him all-too eagerly towards the coaster.  "I'll be right next to you! It won't be that scary, I promise!"  I don't know if he believes me, but he keeps in pace with me as I speed-walk over.
Once we get there, we find the line is a good twenty minute wait to get in.  My feet tap impatiently in the concrete floor.  Tamaki and I are polar opposite friends; I'm the loudmouth while he's more reserved, I take risks while he keeps to the safe route, I chase more thrilling adventures while he'd rather keep to the more tame ones.  I don't mind putting his comfort first most of the time, but the one thing I can't give up is being at an amusement park and not going on the coasters.  They practically call to me, dangling themselves in front of me while screams entice me with promises of thrill.  It's like the architects know how to attract crazies like me.
When I open my mouth to comfort Tamaki - who's staring up at the coaster like he's about to die - the person behind him catches my attention.  My lips form into a solid line and I grab my friend's forearm just a hint rougher than I usually do.
The boy snaps out of his reverie quickly.  He understands the gesture and leans in.  "What's wrong?"
"I think the guy standing behind us has been following us for a while," I whisper low enough so only he can hear.  Tamaki's eyes widen and he's about to turn around when I make a face for him to freeze and not look back.  "Just act natural, I'll take care of it if he tries something."
Not long after we keep carrying on our conversation, Tamaki takes a call on his phone and the guy finally speaks up.  "This ride must be pretty swell if the line's so long for it."
"Yeah, I'm pretty excited for it," I respond.  As long as his intentions are still up in the air, I'll be polite to him.  No reason to be hostile right off the bat.
Rocking back and forth on his feet, he asks, "Do you come here often?"
I shrug.  "Not really, only every once in a while.  My work and school keep me busy."
"I see."  He pauses for a moment.  "So are you too busy for a relationship?"
Oh for fuck's sake.  "I'm not in the market for a boyfriend right now, thank you."
The guy scoots just a tiny bit closer to me.  "Come on, I'm sure you'd change your mind if you got to know me better.  We could just talk for now."
He's persistent.  I suppress the urge to roll my eyes into the back of my head.  "I don't think that's a good idea."  I don't even want to look this guy in the face.  Maybe if I show how uninterested I am, he'll get the message and back off.  I move up in the line when the people in front of us step forward.
"You won't know until you try."  He touches my arm, "Just give me-"
I back my arm away and I glare holes through his skull.  "Why are you touching me?"
"You just weren't looking, I thought it was pretty rude," he shrugs.
I'm almost appalled by how innocent he thinks he is.  How is that okay?  "We just met two seconds ago, you have no right to touch me at all."
The guy lets out a dry laugh.  "I don't know why you're being so uptight and closed off."
Bitch, did you just call me 'uptight'??!!  I'm about to punch this guy right up to the front of the line.
"H-Honey?  What's wrong?"
My head whips around a full 180 degrees to Tamaki, who's finished his call and his eyes are shifting between me and the stranger.  "I-Is he bothering you?"
My stomach does a flip recalling the term of endearment he used earlier.  Thankfully, I know what he's trying to do.  "Yeah, babe.  This guy won't leave me alone."  I shift over towards my friend and grasp his arm.  If we're gonna play this, we're gonna play it right.
The strange guy analyzes the two of us, shifting his eyes back and forth.  "This guy is your boyfriend?"  He's clearly unconvinced.
"Yeah, you got a problem?" I cock an eyebrow, slightly stepping up to assert my dominance.
After a few more awkward seconds, the guy snickers.  "You're dating this guy?  You're barely touching him and he's shaking like a little bitch."
The fury shoots right through me.  No one calls my Tamaki a little bitch and gets away with it.  I'm aboutta end this man's whole life-
Tamaki places a calming hand on my own before I can fully explode on him.  "I-It's okay, sweetie, it doesn't hurt me."
The term immediately washes me over with warmth that cools down my hot anger.  Not to mention my heart's beating a little faster at this affectionate contact.
The moment breaks when the idiot in front of us laughs again.  "You guys can't be dating.  You don't even look like a couple."
"We don't have to be all over each other making out to look like a couple," I roll my eyes.  I've had just about enough of this guy.  "Some of us can keep it in our pants, you know."
"Yeah, but you guys haven't done anything couple-y."
I snort.  What an idiot.  "First of all, thanks for admitting you're a stalker who's been watching us.  Second of all, we shared snacks earlier, I'm sure you must have caught us."
"Big whoop, that's nothing!"  An evil smirk spreads across his face.  "Why don't you two kiss, right here and now?  Prove me wrong."
The rogue thought of kissing Tamaki enters my mind like a bullet and my heart skips a beat.  I shake myself out of that.  "We don't need to take orders from someone like you.  You probably get off to that because you're so lonely, don't you?"
"No need to take it that far, sweetie-"
That's the last straw.  Before I can do anything, Tamaki's wraps a tentacle around the guy's body, lifting him up and constricting his movement temporarily.  His gaze is blank and he nods for me to go ahead with my confrontation.  We make a pretty good team.  I turn back to the guy, pinning him with my deadliest glare.  "You've crossed so many lines today, Mr. Harasser.  We've both had just about enough of your stupidity.  If you don't want us to report you to police for sexual harassment, you'd better run along and stop following us.  Or else my boyfriend here will dangle you off the side of this roller coaster, got it?"
One look into mine and Tamaki's eyes removes the color from the guy's face.  Knowing Tamaki, he's got his hero face on, and I know first hand how intimidating he can look when he does that.  As soon as Tamaki lets him wriggle free, he runs off to the back of the line alone.
"What an ass," I huff, the image of the guy running with his tail between his legs amusing to me.  "Some guys just don't know when to quit."  I cling onto Tamaki's arm and rest my head on his shoulder.  "Good thing you were here to help me get rid of him, hm?"
"Y-Yeah, I guess."  His face turns five shades redder.
It feels weird to be close to him like this now, even if we've shared our personal space like this many times before.  I'm reminded of Tamaki calling me "honey" earlier, sending a fresh set o f shivers through me.  I never knew I needed to hear that from him before.  Tamaki's always been a great friend and we've become so close.  I never realized just how close we've gotten.
"Y-You know," he scratches his ear with his free hand, "I'm kind of...glad I came with you today.  I don't think I'd like it if someone else was with you to act as your fake boyfriend..."
Oh.  That's a pretty bold and straightforward statement, and it's coming from Tamaki of all people.  The implication finally hits me at once and my own face heats up.  "You mean-"
Tamaki grabs my arm suddenly and starts shaking even more violently than normal.  We'd made it to almost the front of the line, almost about to get into the car.  "I-I-If I s-survive this," he gulps, "I'll finish.  B-But you have to h-hold onto me like you promised!"
I knit our fingers together, the rush of both getting on the coaster and hearing what he has to say mixing together, even I can't help shaking slightly in anticipation.  I don't let go of his hand as we get on and secure ourselves in.  His eyes are screwed shut as we're slowly pulled to the top of the hill.  I squeeze tighter on his hand.  "You can do this Tamaki, I'm right here."
He lets out a cute little whine when the car was pulled just enough to the front for us to look down at the impending fall.
"Just scream and let it all out!"
The coaster finally pushes forward and my stomach lurches.  Tamaki lets out the loudest scream out of everyone on the ride with us.  The rush is intense, our bodies flinging and the wind gusting against us.  I start screaming myself out of pure pleasure, still grasped on his hand that's squeezing the blood out of mine.  Even as we pull into the start again and we're unlocked, Tamaki's eyes are sealed shut.
"Tama, it's over, open your eyes now," I giggle.
"I-I'm too dizzy."
I help steady him to get up and out, even wrapping his arm around my shoulder to steady him as we descend the steps away from the ride.  I can feel his entire body shaking down to his knees.  "How do you feel?"
It takes a few moments of scrambled mumbles before he can say something coherent.  "That was scarier than raiding the Shie Hassaikai."
I chuckle again at his nerves.  "At least you're a little more guaranteed to live from this.  And you survived."
As we finally cross through the exit gate, he sweeps me aside, albeit shakily, pushing our foreheads together.  "I did," he breathes before pressing his lips to mine.  I hold onto his back and pull him closer, melting into his quivering kiss.  My heart beats faster after just calming down from the ride.
Tamaki pulls away from me and pushes his forehead on my shoulder.  "Give me a second, my head hurts."
His little whining softens me, threading my hands in his hair to calm him down.  "It's okay, baby boy, take a second."
He stiffens at my pet name for him.  He lifts his head up and finally gazes at me.  "Y-You're pretty great, as a friend and a person.  You're the only person I'd want to be a pretend boyfriend for, and I hope I'm the only one you'd do that for me too."
"Why would I want to be fake girlfriend for someone I want to actually date?"
His face turns even more crimson in response to that.  "O-Oh. Okay."
"But if we're gonna date, you're gonna have to get used to going on roller coasters with me," I tease him.
And just like that, all that blush drains from his face and he shivers again.
I can't help kissing his cute little nose and wrapping my arms around him.  "I'm just playing with you, Tama.  But at least every once in a while, just so you can get over your fear.  And you'll get a kiss and ice cream afterwards."
The adorable smile on his face threatens to melt my knees into mush.  "Okay!"

Already finished Coteries of New York, so on to Shadows of New York! I’ve seen the first bit in an LP, at least, but the bulk of the story will be new. This will have two playthroughs, one for each ending, since at least it has them XD First up - the ‘good’ ending!
Oh dang I like the music.
Julia is a bit on the edgy/cynical side XD
Yeah, she’s got a shit deal :-\ And what’s worse is that it’s all planned out.
Interesting note - at Lodestar, there were shadowy figures in the background, but you could rationalise it as people on the other side of the windows. On the train, you only see the shadowy features, and it’s otherwise empty, so no obvious figures casting them...
I guess if you choose the ‘don’t shoot’ option, Julia gets drained and it’s an early game over?
God that Embrace scene is intense. I got goosebumps!
Spirits, huh? Oh yeah, Obtenebration became Oblivion and is now connected with necromancy, IIRC?
I’m glad she had a good few nights XD;;
Valerie Duval, she was... the scourge in CoNY hunting down the Red Hook killer?
Nice to meet you, ‘Katherine Wiese’ XD
Cool ponytail, Qadir! I really dig the relationship between him and Julia, it’s fun. ‘sup Aisling, how’s Agathon? A blood hunt, really? Y O U. Okay yeah probably better for Julia’s long-term survival for Arturo to ignore her XD;; Samira’s so pretty. Ooh this guy is Hope’s sire, yeah?
“You wanted to hear about which member of New York City's Camarilla I dislike the most?"
"Yes?"
"Too bad. They're all my dear colleagues, and I deeply respect every single one of them."
"Sure you do. Wouldn't want to blurt out something that could lock you out of Mr Vanderweyden's legal services, would you, you ass-kisser?"
"I do expect to find myself in need of a good defense attorney when my broke, incompetent, and foul-mouthed assistant finally pushes me over the edge."
THEMST.
Benoit hi!! “Got any news about Sophie Langley?” *sharp intake of breath* Benoit backstory, that’s rad. I wonder if it’ll be uncovered in-game? Like we know Arturo is still around, Panhard is still around. Presumably Adelaide Davis is still around. Callihan... well, I know what happens to him. I think Torque ditches the scene before Sophie dies?
Father Leonard seems like a good sort. I wonder what his deal is?
Dakota is adorable. I’m going to do the ‘good’ end first even though I know it’ll make me feel horrible, but dangit, the ‘bad’ end is totally going to be my canon.
...Vin Diesel? XD
DING DONG THE DOUCHE IS DEAD. ...Deader than usual, I mean.
jfc Panhard that is pretentious as hell. Both the party description and the costume, actually XD Qadir’s mask is kind of funky. Oh my god Arturo you are a Toreador is that the best you can come up with?! Nice horns, Aisling.
...Thought, given their clans, Samira/Aisling could be interesting as hell.
Man, Arturo and Panhard must be pissed off XD Unless they’ve already picked their replacement stooge?
And here’s where the plot starts! Hey, isn’t that the priest’s house? Ohh, they’re meant to be meeting with Mia. I guess they’re just reusing assets.
“It’s a list of four names. ‘D’Angelo. Hope. Agathon. Tamika.’“ *SHARP INTAKE OF BREATH* Okay, that could be the list Sophie gave the fledgling. Which one did Callihan get it from?
Oh criminy Dakota don’t tell me you’re into that Q-Anon shit XD;; Ooh okay that makes more sense. Neat.
Ahhh man I was hoping to get a lead and instead Julia has to punish this poor fuck XD;; Yeesh. Okay, Bunny as a Reporter it is, then.
Almost run over by a limo, huh? *chinstroke*
Oooh this is the lead to Hope! Yeah, I’d say she has a connection with a Montgomery XD Wonder if she did end up eating her? Huh, contact used LeakyGutSyndrome... didn’t Hope end up having to retire that one, or was it the other one? Let’s just... Dominate this guy. Sorry dude it’s for your own good.
Agathon’s missing? :( Damn, he’s like one of the only decent Tremere. Oho, a diary! Oh sweetheart :( Oh, Silvia died :( Damn, interesting past, though... and a reference to CoNY again.
Fucking shadows, I literally glanced over my shoulder.
S C H E M E S. And yeah, looks like I’m on my way to the ‘good’ end :-\
Oh shit, Adelaide or.... whatshisname, Kaiser’s dude? Oooh man who to meet first... Kaiser’s dude. Oh. That was a bit anticlimactic XD
On to see Hope at Double Spiral. I think this is one of those choices that leads to one of the endings, so what’s more ruthless and Camarilla... busting in it is.
Nastya isn’t having a good night, is she XD;; Also Hope’s suit is badass.
...huh. Sounds like she’s actually managed to get shit sorted decently XD
Interesting... the coterie members were a list of heroes for hire that multiple people had, including Sophie. Well, that widens the scope a bit! Anonymous information broker, shall I assume that’s Kaiser? OH. No, it’s her sire!
“The story going around is, he left me alone and I hate his guts. Well, at least half of that is true.” Which half, though...
Aww man I wish I had saved some of those websites! I miss SciFiVine...
You know, I’m not 100% sure Carter’s the murderer (my main suspect is Arturo at this point tbh) but damn, the bit about Stern’s show kinda makes me want to slap him anyway XD;;
Queer Catholic blues, huh :-\
“Haven’t you noticed what’s going on in the news? People are going absolutely insane about this virus, cancelling trips and orders and --” Ahh. We’re in that 2020 XD;;
Okay the scene with the kid meeting his girlfriend was cute but then spooky time?? jfc was that the Abyss?!
Ooooh did she just find Tamika solely by accident? Thanks, Abyss XD I love how Julia’s first response is ‘shit, she’s hot’. And she took out a whole SI squad herself? Nice. Calebros mention! Huh, so the SI are maintaining the status quo... they became an issue because the Camarilla tried to sic them on the Anarchs and Sabbat and it backfired, maybe it actually succeeded here?
Ooh, a history with Torque. Neat. Also not sure with the art, but are those tattoos on Tamika’s arm, or fur? I mean, Gangrel beast marks and all.
Sorry Torque I’m just trying to get the ‘good’ end :(
Mention of the fledgling! Officially ‘disappeared’, that leaves it fairly ambiguous at this point.
Oof. The Circulatory System are... not cool. And yeah Julia’s just been called tf out, I do look forward to this scene in the ‘bad’ end XD;;
COVID strikes back. The Big Beat Burger is closed :( Charlie is sweet, at least! I hope his mom is okay.
Well that rat bit was weird. Hi D’Angelo! Oh my god blood doll rats? Drunk blood doll rats?! Still a damn good detective, though, that’s good shit. On to Kaiser and some answers! ...Yeah, okay, he’s a prime suspect too.
Kaiser, you are a deeply unpleasant person :-\
...good to know pepper spray still works. And, uh, probably satisfying to beat him up XD;; And yeah, there’s the last choice for the ‘good’ ending. Sorry dude.
...huh. Okay, I was at least partially right XD;; Oh Qadir, not you too :-\
Well that’s a bit... weird of Dakota, yes.
lmao oh Benoit you absolute mess. Religion as A E S T H E T I C XD I have a theory he’s from Michael’s line and I also quite sincerely believe that Michael would take one look at him and bitchslap him into the next millennium. He’s a Path follower, isn’t he?
Father Leonard is okay. I wonder who the ‘friend’ is?
This is very Agatha Christie, revealing the killer in the midst, except I have the horrible feeling Qadir’s going to go with ‘it was suicide’ and not ‘it was everyone’.
Denouement! Before it ends, Julia’s traits:
Loyal only to myself
Glass half-empty
A little abuse of power never hurt nobody
You can’t be a writer and not lie
The ends justify the means (duh)
Honestly she may have just blackmailed her way into power, set up Carter to take the fall, and sent poor Dakota to final death, but the drama was impeccable XD Good luck not ending up in the Abyss, Julia!

Nine Lives To Short Part 9: Fools like you
♡♡♡♡♡♡♡💜💜
Shinsou arc complete ??
Tumblr media
Paring: Shinsou x Reader 👀👀
Genre: Angst
Taglist: @bakuhoetoedoroki @foxypuppy
Plot: You only have nine days to tell him how you feel but...maybe you've been chasing the wrong guy.
"Why did you drag me out here, Bakugo."
Shisou puts one of his hands in his pockets as he stares at the surprisingly quiet Bakugo.
"You know exactly why I called you out here, Tom Cat!"
"Tom Cat? Now that's a new one"
" UGH JUST SHUT UP AND LISTEN! It's about Y/n."
Shinsou gives Bakugo his full undivided attention after hearing that he wants to talk about you.
"Ever since Mr. Aizawa informed to the class about Y/n's qurik that shitty Deku been making theory about how to save her."
Shinsou eyes widen, "Wait really! What were some of his theories?"
"HIS THEORIES THEY ALL SUCKED! I BLEW UP HIS NOTEBOOK AFTER READING ALL OF THEM."
Shinsou let's out a long sigh saying, "Why am I not surprised" as he exhales.
"My theory is way better! Y/n's quirk only awakened when she fell in love right!? Well with you I mean!"
"Yeah, you're right on the money...but where are you going with this"
" Well,what if she falls out of love with you and she falls for someone else."
"Someone like me".
-Meanwhile back inside with Y/n and Momo-
"Ok ok this is fine everything is fine"
"FINE! NO EVERYTHING ISN'T FINE!" Momo says while shaking you furiously.
"MOMO STOP SHAKING ME! I JUST NEED TO LAY DOWN FOR A FEW!.
"Oh....are you sure, Y/n?".
Before you can respond to Momo you feel a tap on your shoulder, you turn around and see that it's Mei Hatsume.
"Oh Hello Hatsume-" In a instant Mei takes your hand and drags you off leaving Momo in the kitchen.
"H-huh! Umm Mei?"
"Sorry Creati, me and Y/n need to have some girl talk! I gotta introduce her to one of my babies!
Even though Mei has a huge smile on her face, you can feel her grip on her you arm tighten.
"Yeah, Momo I'll be ok just keep the party going!".
The chanting of Izuku name can be hear as you are being dragged out of sight and eventually out of mind.
Momo stares off wonder if she made the right choice because for some reason she didn't like the engery Mei was giving off.
"Umm Yoayorozu?"
"YES IM HERE AH, TODOROKI!?"
"You have a line of people asking for more cookies, it seems someone has ate them all" Todoroki glares at Uraraka that currently stuffing her face along with Mina and Kaminari.
"Oh hehe right I'll get right on it!."
...
Mei bring you into a random as she closes the door behind her.
"Soooo...what little robot did you make today Hatsume?" Y/n chuckles even though this situation feels awkward.
"I'm not here to show you anything...I just need to ask you something, it's about Shinsou." You notice that Hatsume is visible angry which makes feel uneasy.
" Oh Hitoshi? What about him?"
"Shinsou... is he your boyfriend?"
"BOYFRIEND?! PFFFTTTT NO NO NO NO! S-SHINOU IS JUST A FRIEND"
" oh so kissing is a friend thing?
(" Not right now!")
"So you won't tell the truth now...you're just like a him A BUNCH OF LAIRS"
"Huh? L-look whatever is happening between you and Shinsou has nothing to do with me"
"IT HAS EVERYTHING TO DO WITH YOU!"
Hatsume starts poking you with her finger, pushing you back as she angrier and angrier.
" Because of YOU Shinsou wants nothing to do with me."
"It's YOUR FALUT that me and him aren't together!"
"WHY DOES HE CARE ABOUT YOU ANYWAY WHEN, YOU DON'T EVEN WANT HIM!"
Hatsume pushes you into a closet and blocks it with something but you can't see that it is.
"HATSUME! HEY LOOK IM SO SORRY I-I THOUGH YOU AND SHINSOU HAD SOMETHING!"
"We did until you came along! AND TOOK IT ALL AWAY"
"Yesterday I went to Shinsou's house to check on him....I-I called so many times and all he did was push me away! HE PUSHED ME AWAY FOR YOU!"
"Shinsou didn't even want to talk he used his quirk on me and walked away".
Y/n puts her head on the closet door and sighs "Hitoshi...no he couldn't have.. b-but even if he did that give you no right to put me in here!"
"You'll stay in there until someone finds you..if they do. Hatsume walks to the door, you panic as you hear her footsteps slowly fade.
" HATSUME! LET ME OUT!"
"Don't worry just sit tight and enjoy the party~ oh! I almost forgot if you're looking for your phone it's...broken"
Hatsume says after throw your phone at wall leaving a big phone sized hole.
" Bye Y/n, I'll keep Hitoshi in good hands I promise".
You kick on the door screaming for help as you voice as muffled by the loud party music right outside the room. Leaning against the wall Y/n can't help but think about how everything she feared would happened.
"GASP! Is this you finally facing reality HAHAHA! GOOD!"
"Oh pipe down you stupid cat! I already gotta deal with this closet bullshit I don't need you right now"
" Now you don't wanna face the consequences of your actions? It's because of fools like you that think they have any control of there fate! They only set themselves up for failure."
" I do have control over my fate!"
"And yet when your given the options to change you don't take it! That's why you're a fool."
"You're right...I've been doing this all wrong... after this party I swear I'll make the right choice!"
"Tch...such a foolish response but I'm not surprised."
"YOKAI, SHUT UP!".
-Y/n continues to try to break out of the closet but she fails, she gave up after what feels like 3 hours until she eventual fell asleep-
" OI KIRISHIMA! DIDN'T I TELL YOU TO MOVE YOUR FUCKING WEIGHTS!"
Kirishima yells from across the hallway "Sorry BakuBro!"
Bakugo then notices the square shape hole in his wall and proceeds scream.
" WHO THE HELL LEFT THIS HOLE IN MY WALL! WHO THE HELL WAS IN MY ROOM!"
"I KILL WHOEVER DARED STEP IN MY DOMAIN!"
Bakugo glares at his closet as he hears rustling coming from it. Bakugo moves Kirishima's huge tower of dumbells and flings opens his closet.
"TIME TO DIE YOU BASSSSssss...tard? "
"Mmh?" Y/n squints, at the blurry figure until it comes into focus and she sees Bakugo.
"Oh...hey Bakugou hehehe"
"Why are you in my closet!"
Y/n faces palms "It's a long story...and I don't think you'd be believe me".
Bakugo smiles as he picks Y/n up help her get up "Knock yourself out I'll listen and I'll believe you, as long as it sounds believable."
-Y/n tells Bakugo everything that transpired and he's rightfully pissed-
" HUHHHHHH!!!! ARE YOU SAYING THAT GADGET GIRL DID THIS ALL BECAUSE OF THAT STUPID TOM CAT!!!!!?!?!"
"Pffffttt did you just call Shinsou a tom cat and me GADGET girl!"
"Quiet you!"
" Ugh DAMMIT! We just told him to leave too we all been looking for you, I can't believe that took 3 hours!"
Y/n's fall on Bakugou's bed and screams into one of pillow.
"3 HOURS!!!!"
" Yeah"
" AND SHINSOU JUST LEFT!"
"Yeah he actually left with sparky, but if you leave you'll be able to reach them."
Y/n feels something gentle grab her hand, she moves the pillow from her face as she stares at Bakugo who is...looking away.
" That is...if I let you"
"Hey...Baku-GO!"
Katsuki lays his head on Y/n's lap "Oops" he said with a smirk
"BAKUGO COME ON YOU'RE TOO BIG FOR THIS!"
" Thanks for the pillow, alley cat"
"ALLEY CAT! WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO IMPLY YOU ANGRY POMERANIAN!"
-As you whine at Bakugo he blocks you out for a sec. He can't help but think out what happened outside with him and Shinsou-
....
"Bakugo...don't tell that you-"
" I LIKE HER OK THERE I SAID IT! At the end of the day I'm a hero and if see someone in danger DAMMIT IM GONNA HELP!"
Bakugo gets in Shinsou's face
"You're a fool to think you could ever have a future with her, you should've stuck with Hatsume."
" BAKUGO! YOU'RE NOT TAKING HER FROM ME."
"YOU DUMBASS GET OVER YOURSELF IM DOING THIS FOR HER!"
....
" HEY BAKUGO ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME"
Bakugo snap back to it...only to hear your whining which irritates him.
"OI! SHUT UP!"
" NO I REFUSE!
"OI THE OTHERS ARE GONNA HEAR YOU SCREAM SO SHUT IT ALLEY CAT!
"BAKUGO YOU SHU-Mmmh" Bakugo simply SHUT you up with a kiss.
-Meanwhile Shinsou is walking with Kaminari-
" Hey you think they found Y/n yet?"
"Why are you worried?"
" YEAH! AND YOU'RE NOT!?????"
"Kaminari, Y/n gets lost all the time she like a cat, eventually she'll come back."
Right.
"Hmmm you're no different huh"
Shinsou quickly turns around to see who said that " Hey Kaminari did you hear something?"
"No...OH GOD YOUR GOING MAD BECAUSE OF YOUR LACK OF SLEEP!"
Shinsou slaps Kaminari in the back of the head.
" Dummy your brain is just fired"
" So he can hear me now"
Suddenly Shinsou falls to his knees and grunts in pain " AHH! OW ow ow!"
" Shinsou! Hey you ok man?"
Hitoshi looks in front of him and see a purple cat with a devilish grin on it's face.
" You're truly nothing but one and the same....a fool."

Really? - g.w. | part two
Pairing: George Weasley x fem!Reader
Word Count: 1137
Warnings: may be some grammar mistakes
| part one | part two | part three | part four |
Tumblr media
(gif not mine)
Your relief didn’t last long though because George was right outside the door. Your blush deepened because you were now anxious that he heard that whole conversation, even though his facial expression said that he didn’t. “Hello Y/N,” he smiled down at you, “are you on your way to help our terrifying mother?” he asked. You snickered, “yeah, I don’t think she’s that scary George,” you rolled your eyes at him, “you just aren’t the best rule follower half of the time.”
“Half of the time?” he asked, crossing his arms, “I think you misspoke, I strive for ALL the time.” he smirked.
You smiled back shyly, just the small gesture of him smirking with his arms crossed leaning against the wall could make your heart thud rapidly. You opened your mouth to say something, but Ginny popped out the door, “Thank Merlin you guys are talking,” she smirked, “George wouldn’t shut up about you all summer.”
You turned around to look at George shocked, only to find his neck and ears were pink, as if he was actually embarrassed. You could feel the butterflies jolting around in your stomach, happy because you are actually a reason George was blushing. But as soon as that happiness came, doubt fought its way back into your brain. He was probably just caught off guard, why would he like you? How could you let your imagination get so far ahead of you. You just laughed it off and started walking downstairs to see if Mrs. Weasley needed any help, hopefully you could take your mind off of George for some time period. 
Once you got downstairs and asked Mrs. Weasley, she of course declined any help. So with nothing really to do you just went outside and sat there for a while, the warm summer sun hitting your skin as you tried to sit there peacefully. But to no avail, you couldn’t keep your mind off of George. You thought of all the times that you both have stayed up late talking about nothing and everything all at once, or how you were able to actually help them on some of their pranks, however rare that may be. You had known your whole friendship with the twins that they wanted to open a joke shop after Hogwarts, and you supported them completely. But you know how Mrs. Weasley sees it. She wants them to be like their father, but it seems she can’t come to grips with how they really are. If they ever offered, and you didn’t think that they would, you would 100% be on board with helping them with their shop. You loved the twins, and they knew that, but you just wished you hadn’t fallen in love with one of them. 
Your thoughts were interrupted though as Mrs. Weasley called everyone for dinner, claiming everyone needed to sleep early because of the early day everyone would have with the cup. You walked inside and could hear everyone bustling around. Charlie and Bill had been there as well, making the Weasley household very full at the moment. Your eyes immediately looked for George, wanting to sit beside him during dinner. It seemed as though he could read your mind, because as soon as you started looking around for him he came up behind you, “We should sit here” he said, pointing at a chair next to his. You smiled and sat down, eating the nice delicious meal with the Weasleys.
------
After talking forever with the twins, you had gone back to Ginny’s room so you could finally sleep, knowing you’d only get a few hours anyway. To your surprise Ginny and Hermione were still awake as well. “Did you snog your boyfriend,” Ginny asked, wiggling her eyebrows. Hermione started giggling, her tiredness evident in the way she held herself.
You scoffed, “Sod off Ginny, for your information I was them both,” 
Ginny chuckled, “I’m going to get you two together, even if it is the death of me,” she laid down after that, pulling the covers over her body.
Hermione just smiled at you before she did the same. You tried to sleep, but you couldn’t, one with Ginny’s light snoring, and two with her statement about George. You knew deep down that he wouldn’t feel the same, but the sureness in Ginny’s voice gave you false hope. Perhaps it wasn’t so bad to think that something could happen between you two. You could be sneaky with your feelings, only letting them show when the time was right. Or you could keep falling deeper and deeper in love with your best friend without him knowing. The latter option was the one you chose, knowing your friendship was more important than even the little possibility of it getting ruined.
Mrs. Weasley came into the room after what felt like minutes of being asleep, “Time to get up girls, I’ve woken the boys up already,” she said hurriedly, immediately leaving the room and closing the door. You yawned, your entire body shivering afterwards. You all dressed in the room, cracking little jokes here and there as you did so. You quickly did something with your h/l, h/c hair and brushed your teeth just as quickly as well.
Once you made it downstairs with the girls, you could hear Mrs. Weasley getting mad about something and once you turned the corner into the kitchen you could see her angrily getting all the twins’ products that you assumed they tried to smuggle in. You tried to hold in your laughter when you saw all the places they had things hidden, and to your amazement it all kept coming. The tense air was palpable once she was finished, Fred and George went out of the house without saying anything and you quickly ran after them. “Mum just doesn’t understand!” Fred said angrily, kicking a stick he passed.
“Yeah, she can’t possibly expect us to be like Dad or Big Head,” George added, the anger evident on his face as well.
Trying to phrase the words right you sighed, “Boys, you know she’s only thinking in your best interests. I understand you’re both upset but she’ll come around eventually.”
“I doubt it,” Fred mumbled and started walking faster ahead, clearly showing he wanted no more to do with that conversation.
George looked down at the ground and sighed, “I understand why he gets so upset, but sometimes it really gets to him. Mum is really harsh about it.”
“Hey it’s alright, once you guys make millions, she’ll be all for it,” you looked up at him smiling.
George chuckled slightly, pulling you into a side hug quickly before pulling away just as quick. “Well I definitely don’t feel as bad about it, but Fred may need more convincing,” he pointed ahead at Fred.

~*~ Santa’s Little Helper ~*~
Starker, no powers au, 2016 words, fluffy, cheeky, Christmas-y fun (that was intended to be just smut but ended up like this... if people like it I might do a pt.2)
This was hell. Tony was in hell. And hell was decorated like Santa got drunk and threw up Christmas cheer over every available surface.
Pepper wanted Morgan to get her picture with Santa, and absolutely refused the idea of Tony just hiring someone to come the house and do it there. Something about going to a mall Santa was more “authentic”, she said. Tony was sure she just wanted to torture him while she was away in LA with her new boyfriend. So unfair.
Which is why he was currently standing in a line with hundreds of other miserable parents and screaming, sugar-filled children waiting to hand his daughter over to a stranger who probably smelled like cheese and stale beer and hope she didn’t start crying. Joy. As they finally rounded the last corner, Tony could see the scene in front of him. Jolly old Santa (who, to be fair, looked perfectly pleasant and not drunk), a big Christmas tree, and… hello there.
Tony’s gaze was immediately locked on what appeared to be an elf, currently bending over to scrape a small child off the floor and back on to Santa’s lap. His legs were encased in some obscenely tight green leggings, and the curve of what looked like an absolutely perfect ass was barely visible under the edge of a bright red tunic. He even had a little pointed hat with a bell, and what looked like plastic elf ears attached to the edge of it. But when he turned around, that’s when Tony was really dumbstruck. He was beautiful. Young, far too young for Tony to even be considering but hey, who ever said Tony made good choices? He had huge brown eyes that matched the brown curls peeking out from under the hat, and an adorable round face that made him look perfectly innocent and sweet.
Tony wanted him.
He seemed distracted by trying to wrangle all the children ahead of them so he didn’t look up until Tony and Morgan were next in line.
“Welcome to Santa’s Village, may I get your—uh… your…”
Tony smirked.
“Your name! Your name, please. Um. Sir.”
“Tony Stark,” he said, still smirking at the flush on the boy’s cheeks as he typed it into the iPad. He was trying to hard to be professional, bless, but Tony could tell he was attracted to him. Tony knew the effect he could have on people, but most of the time their adoration was an annoyance more than anything. Now, it seemed, he couldn’t get enough. The boy looked back, purposely avoiding Tony’s gaze, and focused on Morgan. This seemed to help and he easily switched back into elf mode.
“And you must be…” he said, bending down to smile at the young girl clinging to Tony’s leg.
“Morgan H. Stark, and I’m here to see Santa Claus,” she stated proudly. The boy laughed and extended his hand.
“Lovely to meet you, Morgan H. Stark. My name is Peter, and I’m one of Santa’s elves.”
Morgan’s eyes went wide as she shook his hand (or rather, his fingers).
“Do you make toys?”
“I sure do! Do you have a special toy you want to ask Santa for this year?”
“Uh-huh!” Morgan said, nodding her head vigorously. She looked like she was about to go on but Peter quickly shushed her.
“Shh, that’s gonna be a secret between you and Santa, ok? And then he can tell me what to make for you!”
Morgan nodded again, looking very serious. Tony was absolutely charmed. This boy – Peter – was so good with her, and it honestly warmed his cold, black heart a little. Peter stood back up and the flush on his cheeks returned when he looked at Tony again.
“It will just be a minute, sir, apologies for the wait.”
“Of course. Peter, was it?”
“Um, yes… yes sir.”
“And what is a lovely elf like you doing working in a place like this?” It was terribly cheesy but Tony just couldn’t help himself, and he was rewarded by Peter flushing even deeper and ducking his head.
“I… school. Um, I mean… I’m in school? Not right now, of course. Winter break. But… I kinda needed the extra money.”
“He means that he doesn’t want to have to resort to eating the on-campus hot dogs anymore because they keep giving him really bad—”
“MJ!” he screeched, startling the people around them in line.
“Sorry, sorry,” he whispered, and then turned to the girl beside him and glared at her until she rolled her eyes and moved away.
“Where do you go, Columbia?” Tony asked. Peter looked adorable when he was embarrassed but Tony didn’t want him to stop talking because of it.
“Yeah,” he said quietly, “first year. Biochem.”
“Biochem? Impressive. Yeah I’ve been there a few times… pro-tip, the cafeteria sells discount sandwiches at the end of the day. Might be a better choice than hot dogs.”
Peter looked up, all wide, brown Bambi eyes, and smiled.
“Uh… thanks, Mr. Stark. For the tip.”
God, there were SO many inappropriate jokes just begging to spill from Tony’s lips but they were all saved by Morgan tugging on Tony’s pant leg.
“Daddy, daddy, look, it’s my turn!”
“So it is, wingnut,” Tony said, petting her hair with one hand but still completely focused on Peter’s face.
“Come with me, Morgan,” Peter said, holding out his hand for her. She followed him over to where Santa was perched on his throne (did Santa really need a throne that big?) and he helped her up on to his lap. The other elf, MJ, seemed to be working the camera so Peter stood off to the side and gave Morgan an encouraging thumbs up. Tony watched, a smile creeping across his face, as Morgan explained in great detail what she wanted for Christmas this year. Santa looked a little dumbfounded but Tony assumed it wasn’t every day a child asked for a fully programmable robot cat that can also turn into a repulsor-powered rocket ship that she can ride around the yard. And no, Tony did NOT give her that idea whatsoever…
Unfortunately, Santa then started asking her other questions and although Morgan wasn’t a shy child, she didn’t like going into situations unprepared. She started looking visibly uncomfortable, squirming away and ducking her head, and Tony was just about to step in when Peter scooted forward and knelt down beside her.
“Hey Morgan, you did such a great job! How about we get a photo, and then you can pick a candy from the toy chest ok?”
Morgan still looked displeased but she nodded, and Peter nodded back. However, as soon as he went to leave she made a little noise and reached out to grab him.
“No. You stay.”
Peter swallowed and looked over his shoulder at MJ, who just shrugged.
“Sweetheart, elves aren’t supposed to be in the photos, ok? It’s just for you and Santa! It’ll just take a few seconds—”
“No!” she said, much more forcefully this time, and Tony could see her eyes starting to tear up.
“I… um…”
Tony Stark to the rescue, once again.
“It’s fine,” he called out, waving a hand at Peter from behind the camera, “you can stay.”
“A—are you sure, sir? I don’t want to intrude…”
“You’re not intruding, you’re saving me from having to explain to my ex why our daughter is in tears in what’s supposed to be a heartwarming Christmas memory.”
This got a little laugh out of him, and he looked down at Morgan who was still clinging to him, her hot little hand pressed into his.
“Ok. Alright. How about I just sit here, Morgan, is that ok?” He sat on the top step, just to the side of Santa’s throne, where he could still hold her hand. He arranged his legs gracefully underneath him and Tony once again thanked whatever god made those green leggings. “Can you give us a big smile?”
Morgan seemed appeased, and when MJ called out “say Santa!” she grinned widely. A perfect photograph. Pepper would be happy.
Peter led her over to the toy chest and while she started rummaging through for a candy, he walked over to Tony with his festive green and red iPad.
“The photo should be ready in a few moments. How would you like to pay?”
Tony handed over his black card which made Peter’s eyes widen briefly, but he processed it without a word, handing it back to Tony and definitely not shivering as their fingers brushed.
“Thanks, by the way,” Tony said casually as he put the card back in his wallet, “for avoiding what could have been a meltdown of epic proportions. Morguna is a great kid but her screams would probably break every pane of glass in this building.”
“Oh! Oh, it’s no problem sir, it’s what we’re here for. And I apologize again for having to be in the photo… we might be able to edit me out if—”
“Nonsense. It just makes it extra festive, right? And I can’t say I mind having the option to look at you on my mantel instead of an old fat man with a beard.”
Peter giggled – god, Tony could never get tired of that sound – and bit his lip.
“Th-thank you,” he said quietly. The bell on the end of his ridiculous hat jingled as he looked over to where Morgan was still digging into the candy stash. Tony took that moment to quickly scribble a note on one of his business cards and wrap it in a few hundred dollar bills, which he slid into one of Peter’s pockets on the front of his tunic. The sensation made Peter’s head whip back around, bell jingling even louder, as he stared open-mouthed at the money.
“Oh, sir, I can’t… we don’t accept tips…” He started to take the bills out but Tony stopped him with a warm hand pressed over his thin wrist.
“It’s not a tip, then,” Tony said, rubbing one thumb along Peter’s smooth skin. “Consider it a donation to your ‘no more hot dogs in 2020’ fund.”
Peter’s chest was practically heaving under Tony’s hand, and he watched as he swallowed thickly before looking up at him through those sinful lashes.
“Thank you,” he whispered, “thank you so much, sir.”
“Hey, it’s the holidays,” Tony said, leaning in just a little closer until he could see the gold sparkling in Peter’s big brown eyes, “Merry Christmas, Peter.”
“Merry Christmas, Mr. Stark,” Peter replied breathlessly.
“I FOUND A CHOCOLATE SANTA!” Morgan yelled.
Tony groaned inwardly but turned to look at his daughter, smiling brightly and wielding a foil-wrapped chocolate Santa.
“Good job! Let’s go bite his head off, ok?”
Morgan cackled as Tony leaned down and scooped her up, hoisting her on his hip. He turned back to Peter who still looked like he might hyperventilate at any moment and offered him a crooked smile.
“Bye, Mr. Elf!” Morgan said, waving as Tony carried her out of the gates and back into the crowded mall. He purposely didn’t look back, even though he could feel Peter’s eyes boring holes into his skull. He just had to be patient.
+++++
Peter (10:59 p.m.): Hi Mr. Stark. Thank you again for the tip. It was WAY too much. But thank you.
Tony (11:01 p.m.): I see you found my card, too.
Peter (11:03 p.m.): I did… I’m free on Thursday. Or Saturday. Or any day, honestly, I’ll get MJ to cover for me because yeah I’d really really really really like to go on a date with you.
Tony (11:05 p.m.): That sure is a lot of really’s. I feel so special. Pick you up on Saturday at 8pm. Wear those tights for me, ok?
Peter (11:07 p.m.): NO.
Tony (11:08 p.m.): Don’t make a grown man beg, sweetheart.
Peter (11:10 p.m.): … I can wear them under my pants.
Tony (11:11 p.m.): Oh, you really are a Christmas miracle. Can’t wait, sweet thing. See you soon.

Henry was coming back home after training in the gym. It's been a long day for him, shooting since morning, horse training, running and then muscle training, but he finally could rest. He had two days free from shooting, so he would use those days to relax. He was on his doorstep looking for the key when he noticed that Kal was acting strange. He began barking and moving around anxious. He tried to calm him down but failed. He opened the door and saw that the lights were on and there was noise coming from the kitchen. Kal ran to that part of the house with Henry screaming his name, scared that it may be a burglar and might try to hurt his bear. He went after him, and went he reached the room, he saw you petting the dog, who was more than excited to see you and moving his tail like crazy. You saw Henry and showed him a big smile. Gosh, there were no words to describe how much you missed him. He smiled back, still surprised by your presence. -H...hi! - he saluted you. - I didn't know that you were coming back. - Hi! Yeah, I didn't tell you because I wanted to surprise you, I hope it doesn't bother you that I showed up without a notice.-you said slightly apologetic - Of course, it's ok. I'm so happy that you're here. I missed you a lot.-he replied coming closer to you, cupping your face with his hands and kissing you. You shared a long kiss before speaking again. - How did you get in? - he asked curiously - I remembered the code for the security alarm and then I enter from the window next to your computer. Don't worry, I didn't break anything, other than maybe a few laws - you joked and he laughed. - I might have to call the cops then.- he continued your joke. - Ok, you call them I tell them I've been a bad, bad girl... naughty, naughty girl - you said in a sexy tone and he laughed again and kissed you again. Your surprise included a homemade dinner. You prepared him some fresh pasta with tomato sauce and basil. And for dessert, you bought a cheesecake. While eating, you two talk about the shooting of the show and celebrated the fact that you got the role in the movie. The gave you the call the day that they told you they would and the same day they send Brian - your agent- your contract so he could check if everything was ok and two days later you signed the contract and then were free to go back to England because shooting would start in the second week of May. So you still had several weeks free before you had to go to Washington D.C. to shoot the film. After dinner, you went to the couch to be more comfortable and continue talking some more. - Have you seen what's on the pen drive that I gave you? Sorry, that Bond Girl gave to Mr Bond - you corrected yourself grinning. - Nope, I thought that it was empty. It didn't cross my mind that could have something in it.-he replied surprised. - I left something in there that I thought it might help you those days that I was in LA. Henry looked at you for a moment and then stood up and desapeared from the room; moments later, he was there again with his laptop on one hand and the pendrive on the other and you laughed amused. He sat next to you and put the pendrive and open the folder inside of it. He almost chocked when it saw its content. There were twenty-five pictures of you practically naked. They weren't normal selfies, those were artistic pictures taken by a proffesional photographer. One of those pictures was a close up of just your lips and the thumb of a man touching your button lip. Other was of your body from the neck down, with one arm covering your boobs and your other hand placed between your legs. There was another in which your entire naked body was visible, even your nipples, but throught a shadow. All of those pictures had one thing in common, it had been perfectly taken so if people saw them, they wouldn't knew it was you. But Henry did; he already could recognize your body easily. - Do you like them? - you asked him curiously - I'm speechless. - he replied, breathless. You smiled. - They were taken by my friend Beth. She's also a photographer. She had a presentation and the model failed her so I came to the rescue. She made sure no one would know it was me. - And in this photo - he said pointing at the first photo- whose thumb is it? - he questioned, he tried to made it sound like if it was just curiosity was he was clearly jealous. - That Scotty. He's the lead singer and bassist of her band. We're all great friends. He was there for that picture, the first picture we took, and I was fully clothed I must clarified, and then he left.- you explained and you saw him relax a little bit, but he still was jealous for sure.- We laughed a lot after that picture because he was eating cheetos before that and left my lip greasy.- you laughed shaking your head and rolling your eyes. - It's a shame that I didn't see them before, but in the same time I'm grad I watched now with you because that photo would have fucked me up. - The idea was for you to look at it and imagine that being your thumb and grabbing my lip like that. To help your imagination.- you smirked.- Ok, so you didn't see the pictures, so that means that you just jerked off to porn? -you asked laughing and he blushed - Oh, common! You're thirtysix! I know you watch porn and pleasure yourself. Remember the bottle of lube in your nightstand drawer? Don't need to be ashame or act embarrased with me, it's ok. - you assured him and he blushed even more- What's your favorite kind of porn? Threesome? Two girls together? Big titties? -you asked laughing -Oh, c'mon! Tell me! Cosplay? Cosplay! You like cosplay porn! - you said after noticing how tense he got when you mention the last option. You laughed and gave him a big kiss on the cheek and a hug- I apologize if I made you uncomfortable with my questioning. I just want you to know that it's ok, I'm not going to judge you for liking porn and that stuff. - It's ok.- he replied and kissed you passionately. He stopped, pressed his forehead againt yours. - Do you want to go to the bedroom now? - Oh. - you replied in a sign that you were about to deliver bad news.- I... I can't. - Why not? Did I do something wrong? - Henry asked worried. - No baby.- you assured him stroking his face and giving him a kiss- It's just... I'm on my period.-you admited and pouted - Imagine how frustrated I was when I was about to leave to see you and I found my favourite panties ruined with an awful red stain on them, just like my plans for our first night together.- Henry laughed, relieved that it was just that and kissed you again. - It's ok. We don't have to do anything. Let's just go and kiss and cuddle. - he offered as he caressed your face with the back of his hand. - Why not? Just because I can't do anything doesn't mean that you can't - you said winking. - You had a long day at work, you deserve some release.- You grabbed his hand and walk him to the bedroom. Once you made it into the room, you made him took his clothes off and lay on the bed. You took your shirt off, revealing a nice lavender colour demi bra that made your breast look fantastic.  You were sitting in the mattress, between his legs. - I hope this view helps you.- you said pointing at your boobs. - Oh, it does. A lot. - he replied grinning. - Well, grab the lube.- you ordered him - Ok.- he answered curiously as he did what you ask him to. -Here it it.- he said handing you the bottle. -Oh, no, I don't need it. It's not for me. - you replied smirking devilish. - But you asked for it.- he told you, not understanding what was going on. - The lube it's not for me, it's for you. I want you to pleasure yourself as I watch.- you explain with the same expression as you put both of your hands on the bed in a relaxing manner. - What? That's not sexy! - he objected with a facial expression that showing that he thought that that thought was insane. - I'll be the one to judge that and I think that I'd be extremely sexy! If I pleasure myself in front of you, would you think that it not sexy? - That's be extremely sexy, but it's different. - Why? - Because you're a goddess. - Yes, like you're not some kind of greek good or even hotter. - you said rolling your eyes and then smiled at him. - Common baby, it's ok. It's only me and you here. - Ok. - he sighed. - But, I don't even know how to do it. - You don't know how to masturbate, really? - you replied raising one eyebrown in disbelief. - I know how to do it. It's just. I don't have porn. My mind is blank at the moment, I cannot concentrate to do it.- he explained. You sighed and order him to put lube on his hand. - I'm going to help you. Take one good peak at the girls and then close your eyes. - he starred at your breast for a minute with a big smile on his face and then closed his eyes- Imagine me lying on the bed. I'm wearing nothing but this bra and a matching thong. I began to slide my hand slowly throughout my entire body, stroking my soft skin in the process. I put my hand inside my panties and start to rub my clit.- Henry already had reached his member and began to stroke it slowly.- With my free hand, I start playing with my boobs, grabbing them underneath the bra and pressing my hard nipples, as I faster the pace with my other hand. - henry imitated your narrative and stroked himself faster and faster, moaning loud as he started to reach climax.- I start to get out of breath as I realized that I'm about to reach the orgasm- you said almost moaning- and then I stop. - What happened? - said Henry opening his eyes, I little frustraeted. - Close your eyes, I've not finished yet.- you ordered him. - I stop and the I open my eyes and see you standing at the door, watching me. You're smiling. You're enjoying it. I invite you to join me with a sing of my hand and you come. I take you shirt of and you lay on the bed. I kissed your chest and stroke it. Use your other hand to stroke your chest as your touch yourself, imagine that it's me - you urged him pausing the story. - I won't feel the same as your soft hand.- he replied. - It doesn't matter, it'd feel good, just do it.- you commanded him again and then continue your narrative- I toss off your pants and briefs and grab your cock and start to licking it slowly up and down, sucking and tasting the tip like a lollipop. You go crazy when I go down on you, you love how I take my time to let you know how much I enjoy having that marvellous part of you inside my mouth. - you noticed by his heavy breathing and the loud moans that he was about to finish, so you rush to the grand finale you'd thought-. Now, I take your tasty peace out of my mouth and I place it between my boobs. You start to fuck them, first slow and then faster...faster...faster...-you imitated the rhythm of his stroking, almost moaning with every word, until he finally realesed, moaning so loud that made Kal start barking. You both laughed. He screamed to the bear that everything was ok and after a few minutes, the puppy went back to sleep. After going for a short shower, Henry came back to the room. You already changed into something more comfortable for sleeping and he put on and old t-shirt and briefs and got into bed with you. You kissed for a little while and then you place your head on his chest. He hugged you and you fell asleep.

“What do we think about Joan?”
Henry blinked, looking up from his phone to look over at Alex. “What?”
“Joan!” Alex repeated, excitedly. “As a name!”
Henry’s face contorted. “As in Joan of Arc?”
Alex’s face fell, “No, like Joan Jett. I’m trying to keep with our vintage rockstar theme.”
Henry let out a surprised laugh, turning a bit in his seat so his knee bumped Alex’s. “I like it.”
“Yeah, but if the first thing you thought was a religious figure, that’s not my favorite thing.”
“Well, it’s not like Bowie is the first thing you think when you hear David. Could just as easily be the Bible story with Goliath.”
Alex grimaced. “I don’t know if I like that.”
Henry huffed a laugh again, putting a hand on Alex’s knee. “Well, it’s not as if we have to decide now. Let’s at least meet the dogs first, yeah?”
Alex’s mouth twitched and he groaned dramatically, covering Henry’s hand with his. “ Fiiiiiiiine .”
Henry smiled softly, bringing Alex’s hand up to his mouth, kissing his knuckles. Alex grinned, butting his knee against Henry’s, teasing him for being so corny. Henry winked.
“Anyway, I’m more concerned with breed,” Henry said coolly, lifting his phone back to his face. “It’s important to research these things beforehand.”
Alex snorted. “H, I think the last thing we’re going to find is a pedigree where we’re going.”
Henry made a protesting noise in his throat. “It’s not about pedigree, love. We need to get a dog that will get along with David. One that won’t have separation anxiety when we need to be away and one that isn’t terribly difficult with new people.” He turned his phone toward Alex. “I have a list.”
Alex glanced at it and snorted. “Did you really google ‘dog breeds good with beagles’?”
“As opposed to what?” Henry said, his eyebrows hiked. “I got results, did I not?”
Alex snorted again but ran a hand over Henry’s knee as if to say ‘Yes you did, darling, now continue’.
Henry did just that. “Beagles on the whole are rather friendly and there’s very few breeds they won’t get along with.  And there’s always dogs that universally get along with everyone, like golden retrievers and labradors.”
Alex scrunched his face. “Sure, but how basic is that?”
Henry leaned his head against the headrest and turned to look at Alex, mournfully. “You’d look adorable with a Golden retriever.”
“I resent you for implying I wouldn’t look adorable with any dog.” Alex said. “And if I fall in love with a Golden Retriever then it is what it is. But give me more interesting options.”
Henry sighed but dutifully returned to his phone. 
“Greyhounds?” Henry offered, skeptically.
Alex pumped a fist. “Fuck yes. Skeletal horse-looking fuckers. That’s what I’m talking about.”
Henry grimaced but tapped at his phone a bit before humming in interest. “Greyhounds are one of the breeds most in need of rescue, since they’re former racing dogs. But they’re also one of the hardest dogs to rehabilitate and don’t deal well with the cold or being alone.” He looked at Alex, meaningfully. “So a greyhound would definitely do well in New York while we’re away on politics business or some such.”
Alex grimaced. “Okay, fine . What else you got?”
Henry continued to take him through various dog breeds, pros and cons, relating them to David and what life would be like for the new dog back at the brownstone while Henry was abroad and while Alex was in class or potentially doing lawyer things.
It was just so surreal for Alex to think that he could do this. He could get a dog with his boyfriend. They were living stable and almost boring lives. His mother had no more campaigns to run and he was stressed out in school, which was right in his comfort zone. Henry had his youth shelters and his LGBT organizations. He and Henry were out to the world. It felt like they could really start being a family.
And what better way to start a family than with a dog?
“I do hope David doesn’t feel as if we’re replacing him,” Henry mused, briefly looking out the car window. “This is for him. So he isn’t lonely when we’re both out. Since we left Mr. Wobbles, he needs a mate. This is for him. Do you think he knows?”
Alex’s mouth twitched into another smile and rubbed Henry’s knee consolingly. “If he doesn’t know by now, we can always put the new pup in a box with a bow on it. David would have to be particularly stupid if he doesn’t get the hint then.”
Henry turned to him with a frown. “You’re making fun of me.”
“Just a little,” Alex admitted, bringing Henry’s knuckles to his mouth to kiss them. “David knows we love him. He’ll be fine.”
Henry was still frowning but he turned back to the window, getting more and more nervous the closer they got to the shelter.
Zahra had vetted this shelter within an inch of its life, triple checking references and doing follow up calls with adopted dog owners from more than ten years ago. It was extremely important to not only Alex and Henry but to his mother’s public image, that if Alex was going to be adopting a dog, it would be in the most unambiguously ethical way possible. No puppy farms. No PETA ties. Just good old fashioned dog rescue.
They’d set up a private appointment, obviously. They’d tweet about the shelter once they were safely away.
Cash navigated the car around the back of a squat looking building, putting it in park and turning around to look at them. “You both ready?”
Henry nodded, a steely look in his eye. Alex gripped his hand and gave it a quick squeeze.
They pushed out of their respective doors and Alex hurried around the car to Henry’s side, grabbing his hand again before they reached the back door. Henry shot him a grateful smile and knocked.
A woman opened the door with a startled-sounding “Oh!” despite her clearly having expected them. “Well, wow, hi! Come in!”
Alex smiled, as he and Henry stepped past her into an office. The woman was young-looking, her hair tied up in a messy ponytail and glasses on her face. She wore scrubs with little corgis on them.
“Were the corgis for this guy?” Alex asked, pointing to Henry and gesturing at her scrubs. “Because they’re really more the queen’s thing. Our boy is a beagle man.”
Henry rolled his eyes and smiled even as his ears turned red. “Not everything is about me, Alex.”
“Oh, I did wear them for you, though,” the woman said, her hands shyly tucked in her scrubs pockets. “They felt appropriate.”
“You look great,” Alex told her, winking. He gave Henry’s hand a last squeeze before releasing it to offer it to her. “I’m Alex.”
“I know,” she said, with a slight giggle, taking his hand. “I spoke to your handler on the phone. I’m Faith.”
Alex grinned, shaking her hand and turning to Henry. “I’m sure Zahra would love to know she’s my handler.”
“She has been your handler for well over a decade, love.” Henry told him fondly.
He turned to Faith, offering his own hand. “Henry.”
She took it, bending her knees a bit in an awkward curtsy.
“Oh, that’s really not necessary,” Henry told her, embarrassed.
Alex moved to do his own curtsy, waxing about how amazing and royal Henry is, but he figured that might embarrass Faith more than Henry, so he just grinned and smacked Henry on the ass. “Yeah, he’s really not that great.”
“Alex,” Henry groaned.
“Can we see the dogs?” Alex asked, bouncing a bit on his toes.
Faith looked between them, biting her knuckles, looking very much like she was seconds away from collapsing into giggles. Instead, she cleared her throat and stood up, acting extremely professional. “Of course, follow me.”
They made their way out into the main hallways of the shelter and Alex leaned close to Henry’s ear. “Janis?” He said in a low tone. “Like Joplin?”
“Also Chandler Bing’s annoying girlfriend,” Henry whispered back.
“Goddammit.”
Alex sighed, turning his smile all the way back up when Faith turned to them as they stopped in front of another door.
“I’ve pulled some dogs for you ahead of time. Ones I thought would be a good fit based on what your handler told me. No major abandonment issues, house trained, good with other dogs–”
“Beagle, specifically.” Henry interrupted.
“Yes, a beagle, specifically,” Faith corrected, smiling indulgently. “I’ve pulled three dogs for you to meet today and you can always come back if none of them feel right. But the first one is right behind this door! He’s a Golden Retriever, he’s two years old, and his name is Davey. You ready?”
Alex and Henry nodded and they all headed in.
Davey greeted them very enthusiastically, panting and twining around their legs, his head butting into Alex and Henry’s hands until they scratched his ears. He didn’t bark and he didn't jump up, obviously very well trained.
And he was beautiful. A very handsome and good boy.
“Sit on the ground,” Henry instructed, pulling out his phone. “If I don’t get a photo of you with this dog I will never forgive myself.”
Alex rolled his eyes but sunk to the ground, sitting cross legged in the center of the floor. Davey immediately came up to lick his face, curling his body around so he was sitting square in Alex’s lap. Alex laughed and pet his belly, setting Davey’s tail to thrash in ecstasy. Henry’s grin was too fond as he took approximately a million pictures.
“What do you think?” Alex asked, his hands ruffling Davey’s ears.
Henry glanced nervously at Faith who was sitting at a chair in the corner, supervising their visit. Faith immediately waved him off. “Please speak freely, you won’t hurt my feelings. And Davey won’t understand you, anyway.”
Henry nodded in an acknowledgement, giving a small smile of thanks, but still lowered his voice before answering. “He’s a very pretty dog.”
“ So handsome,” Alex agreed, ruffling Davey’s ears again and kissing his head. “But golden retrievers…”
“Yes, you’ve said,” Henry said, rolling his eyes. “‘Davey’ is also a little too close to ‘David’. Right?”
“We could always change his name,” Alex offered.
Henry’s nose scrunched, telling Alex exactly what he thought of that idea.
Alex scrunched his nose back, mockingly. “Well, he’s an excellent boy. Guaranteed if we don’t take him, he’ll be adopted by the end of the week.”
Henry nodded, his shoulders relaxing a bit at the thought of Davey’s eventual rescue.
Faith smiled, rising from her chair and pulling something from her scrubs pocket. “Next dog?”
Henry nodded, reaching out a hand to Alex, who had been abandoned by Davey almost immediately after Faith had reached into her pocket. Henry helped him to his feet and Faith made Davey sit as she put the peanut butter puzzle treat in front of him.
She let him have it and they left the room while he was distracted.
The next dog was a beautiful floppy eared girl, chestnut with white patches and black feet like she was wearing socks.
Her name was Dobby.
Henry loved her immediately, sitting on the ground and letting her lope up to him and sniff his head. She was a little more demure than Davey, a little more unsure, but she warmed up to them soon enough.
“What is she?” Henry asked, his face in her neck.
Alex translated. “What breed is she?”
“We think she’s an Irish Setter and an English Springer Spaniel mix.”
Alex snorted. “An Irish and an English? Wonder how that worked.”
But Henry’s head popped up from where he’s been focusing on Dobby’s ears and looked at Faith, eyebrow creased. “You think?”
“She was a stray.” Faith shrugged. “We sent her bloodwork in to try and know more but there was some that was inconclusive.”
Henry frowned more, his hands stilling on Dobby’s back before she gave a slight whine and he picked back up on petting her.
Alex kicked gently at his shoe. “Dobby and David. That sounds cute.”
“I don’t like not knowing,” Henry admitted, the inside of his cheek between his back teeth.
“Stop chewing your face,” Alex told him, kicking his shoe again.
Henry stopped, shooting a pout at Alex before repeating “I don’t like not knowing. What if she’s part Chow Chow or Terrier.” He frowned longingly at her bushy tail. “What if she doesn’t get along with David? Chow Chows are not good with beagles.”
“We’re reasonably confident she won’t be a problem with other dogs, otherwise I wouldn’t have brought her in here to meet you,” Faith told them, smiling in sympathy. “I mean, look how gentle she is!”
Henry hugged her around the neck. She was exceedingly gentle.
Alex could have told Henry that they could work with her. That any small percentage of a breed she had that might not like David was something they could overcome. That it would all turn out okay if they took her home.
But Alex didn’t know that. He didn’t know anything for certain and that little margin of error was too much for Henry. If things didn’t work out and he had to give the dog up after falling even more in love with her, it would break his heart.
Alex took a step forward and put his hand on Henry’s head, petting his hair back from his face. He turned to Faith. “I think we should meet the next one.”
Faith nodded, maybe a little disappointed, but reached into her apron again for another peanut butter toy. 
Dobby immediately abandoned Henry when the smell of peanut butter hit the air, so that probably helped the sting some. Alex helped Henry to his feet and pulled him into a brief hug, rubbing a hand over his back.
“Maybe we can come back for her someday,” Alex whispered into his ear, kissing his shoulder.
Henry sighed, sinking a bit into Alex’s embrace before standing up straight. “No,” he said firmly. “I want her to be adopted. She deserves to have a forever home, even if it’s not with us.”
Alex kissed his shoulder again, pulling back and kissing him on the mouth. “This magnanimous sacrificial hero thing you’ve got going?” Alex kissed him again. “Extremely sexy.”
Henry laughed under his breath, ducking his head to kiss Alex back, before turning them both to face Faith, who was already done distracting Dobby and had been politely waiting by the door, politely averting her eyes until after they’d finished their moment.
They made their way to the last room.
Faith opened the door to reveal a medium-sized pointy looking dog.
“ Yeeeees, ” Alex whispered, immediately moving in to sit on the ground.
The dog started jumping around, reacting to Alex’s excitement, her toes clacking on the tile. She ran up to Alex as soon as he was on her level and started licking his face.
“Is this a greyhound?” Henry said, laughing a bit as he watched Alex. Alex, for his part, was entirely focused on petting every inch of this dog.
“Hair’s too long to be a greyhound,” he answered, scratching her butt as she went crazy.
“She’s an Italian Greyhound/Whippet mix,” Faith laughed, watching Alex pick her up over his head like Simba. “We call them Whippigs.”
“ Whippig!” Alex said, delightedly, swinging the dog back and forth above him. Her tongue lolled out in a big doggy smile.
Alex pulled her in close to his chest. She fit in very nicely there: she didn’t squirm too much and she seemed pretty content to be held.
He looked up to Henry, eyes pleading.
Henry smiled fondly down at him before turning to Faith. “We talked about Greyhounds, but we worried it would be too cold in New York. Or that the dog wouldn’t handle us being away very well.”
“Greyhounds usually do have abandonment issues but Whippets are usually better about it, being watchdogs. And any dog you get won’t handle being alone too badly since you have another dog.”
Henry nodded and Alex grinned. “That’s why we’re doing this! So David won’t have to be alone, right?”
Henry sighed, rolling his eyes but quickly returning his attention to Faith. “And the colder weather?”
“Well, they’re not meant to be kept outside, but that’s not really a problem for you.” She paused before turning a smirk to Alex, whispering loudly to Henry behind her hand. “They also wear sweaters very well.”
Alex gasped loudly, getting the pup very excited. “HENRY WE CAN DRESS HER UP IN LITTLE SWEATERS!”
Faith laughed and Henry sighed again, feigning annoyance but with a twinkle in his eye.
Alex put the puppy down and let her run around as Henry talked through more details with Faith.
“She’s three years old. Been here for almost a year after her previous owners moved to an apartment that didn’t allow dogs. Oh, and her name is Evie!”
Alex’s head snapped to them, looking at Henry. “We could call her Stevie. Like Stevie Nicks!”
Henry’s jaw dropped for a second and then he threw his head back and laughed.
From that, their fates were sealed.
  Bringing her home was carefully orchestrated and anxiously accomplished.
Henry had googled it, obviously.
Faith had given them tips but Henry needed a checklist in front of him to calm his nerves. Alex could understand that.
They parked in front of the brownstone (Alex had no idea how Cash always kept this spot open for them) and Alex took Stevie carefully out of the car, setting her on the sidewalk pavement, a Hufflepuff leash clipped to her new collar. They’d decided she was a Hufflepuff.
Alex let her sniff around, familiarizing herself with the environment, while Henry ran inside. She watched him go, whining a little bit, but Alex crouched down to pat her head and she was fine again.
She was getting very invested in the tree planted on the curb when Henry emerged again with David, who came bounding down the steps, panting happily toward Alex.
Step one: introduce dogs while on leashes.
Stevie pulled back, startled, darting behind Alex’s legs and straining at her leash. Alex crouched down, reaching behind himself with one hand to pat her distressed little head, even while using his other hand to greet an excited David. “Hey there, buddy! What’s up, you doing okay?”
David’s tail went nuts as Alex scratched behind his ears. He fell onto his back and showed Alex his belly.
This show of submission brought Stevie sniffing around, tangling Alex in her leash in the process.
When David saw the newcomer he rolled back to his feet and strained on his own leash to try and get a sniff of her.
“Whoa there, mate,” Henry said, pulling on David’s leash. “Gently, now.”
Alex untangled himself from Stevie’s leash and pulled her tight to his chest. The list Henry had said to let her come around on her own but she was shaking! Alex had to hold her.
“David,” he started, looking at the beagle then back to his new baby. “This is Stevie. She’s your sister now. And she’s smaller than you, so be nice.”
He kissed her on the head and then put her down between his crouched knees so she could still feel safe.
She backed into him a little but sniffed back when David got close to her. She took a couple steps away from Alex, getting better access to David’s butt.
“There’s a special gland there, you know,” Alex told Henry as they watched the dogs meet.
“Yes, Alex, I do.” Henry answered. Alex glanced up to see the nervous crease in his forehead.
“Hey,” Alex said, coming to standing. He stepped over the dogs to get closer to Henry, reaching up and rubbing at the crease with his thumb. “It’s going fine.”
Henry took a long breath out. “I know.”
But he was still extremely tense. He was tense when they both dropped their leashes and let the dogs walk around each other freely (step 2). He was tense when they brought the dogs into the house, showing Stevie to her crate and her new food bowls and the other things the PPOs had brought into the house while they’d been doing the emotional labor of introducing the animals (step 3). He was tense right up until the four of them were cuddled together on the couch at the end of the day, watching Bake Off.
Alex and Henry were half on top of each other, their shoulders leaning together in the middle of the couch while David was curled at Henry’s feet and Stevie was hunkered into Alex’s side.
“She was supposed to be David’s mate,” Henry joked, the first joke he’d made since they brought Stevie home.
Alex grinned at him. “I’m cuter than David. I have been trying to get you to admit this for years.”
Henry rumbled a laugh, stretching a bit so he could kiss Alex on the mouth. “You keep thinking that, sweetheart.”
