a high school prom au where the reader and Dream are like childhood best friends and the readers date shows up with someone else then when the reader feels all lonely, Dream is like “what if we danced🥺” ??? anyways love you and your fanfics you’re like my favorite writer on tumblr💖💘

+ this is such a cute concept! I’ve never written anything like this, but I hope it was what you wanted<3

++ also this is such an old request, I’m so sorry

prom night - dream

𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠: high school au! dream x reader

𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲: after being abandoned by your prom date, the person you expected the least to spend the night with asks you for a dance.

𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐬: 1.501

𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬: angst, fluff, swearing, slight mention of alcohol use.

song recommendation: love on the brain - rihanna

you couldn’t believe your eyes.

there your date stood, arm wrapped around a person that you for sure knew wasn't you. the excitement disappeared from every corner and edge of your body, hands falling to your sides in complete disappointment.

proudly, your so-called date stepped forward in line with a smile on their face, waiting to be the next for the photo shoot the had been set up. your smile was gone. and so was your passion for continuing this prom.

looking down, you turned on your heels, walking away from the great asshole of a date, and finding an empty seat by one of the available tables.

you’d wondered why it took so long for your date to arrive - you should’ve known, really. but no - now you were just left sitting alone by an empty table. what was the point of even being there anymore when all you could feel was loneliness?

everyone else was having fun, partying and smiling about the night ahead of them - just like you should’ve been. but now, you were just left with feeling disappointed in yourself. how could you make yourself believe that someone actually wanted to bring a date like you to the prom? what were you thinking?

you sighed deeply as you rested your head in the palm of your hand, other hand busy with tracing the cutouts on the table.

“just go over there, man!”

“yeah, they’re just sitting there all alone… this is your perfect chance!”

clay scratched the back of his head, staring down at the drink in his hand.

“I don't know… what if they say no?”

george and nick both rolled their eyes. the only one who really believed that was gonna happen would be clay. it was crystal clear to literally everyone else that the two of you had developed feelings for each other over the many years of knowing one another. clay would always brush it off with a “we’re just friends”, but really, he knew they were right.

he’d known you since he was 8 and you 7 - having been best friends since that day and until last year. you'd kinda… broken off since then. as you grew older, more important things had distracted you from keeping the connection, and eventually, you just slipped away.

he knew he liked you as more than a friend. but he was certain you didn't.

after all, you wanted to go with a complete dickhead, who ditched you anyway. and now look where you were.

“hey guys~ why are you wasting the night just standing here? let’s party!” karl slurred as he came crashing into george and nick, swinging both arms around their shoulder from behind.

as george was busy pushing karls’ arm off of him, and nick pulling him closer, clay’s eyes were only focused on you. you looked so… sad. no one should be sad on their prom night, and frankly, maybe his friends were right.

before he knew it, his feet dragged him across the dance floor, towards your place on the chair. george’s eyes widened, a big smile spreading across his face, showing off his braces.

“would you two stop flirting with each other and watch what is happening right now?”

nick and karl giggled.

“why, are you jealous gogy?” nick teased, causing a light shade of pink to brush across george’s cheeks.

“shut up-”

“hey.”

the second you broke away from your melancholy stare at the table, your heart started racing and a wave of sweat danced across your skin. he hadn't talked to you since… you couldn’t even remember the last time.

lifting your head off your hand, you sat up straight, watching as clay scratched the back of his neck nervously.

“hi,” you responded, voice quiet and unsure.

why was he talking to you all of a sudden? after all these months with absolutely no contact with each other, now he wants to talk to you? on the other hand, it’s not like you'd been very communicative with him either…

clay hesitated slightly, shifting on his feet. “why are you sitting here all alone? I thought you had a date?”

you sighed, corner of your lips turning down slightly. “yeah… they ditched me.” you looked away from him, feeling somewhat embarrassed that you'd let yourself get into a situation like that.

clay felt bad. how could someone let go so easily of someone as perfect as you? on the other hand, this meant that no one else could have you - and that made him kind of relieved.

he hesitated a little before speaking up again; “what a dickhead.”

that made you laugh a little. “yeah.”

silence approached after that, and a tension started building up. the both of you could feel the unspoken words you'd been keeping from each other rise up - yet you remained quiet.

after all, there wasn’t really anyone you could blame your fading friendship on - apart from yourselves.

clay cleared his throat, as a new, slower song came on, hand reaching out in front of him, hovering right before you. your eyes trailed along his tux-clad arm and up to his eyes, noticing the withheld love in them.

“do you wanna dance with me?”

you blinked at him, thankful that the fluorescent lights made it hard for him to see the blush on your cheeks. your heart felt as if it was pounding out of your chest.

“I-,” you stuttered, recollecting yourself quickly before placing your hand into his, fitting perfectly right into his palm. you smiled up at him softly. “I’d love to.” he smiled back to you, gripping onto your hand and lead you through the large crowd of people onto the dance floor.

he turned to you, taking in how absolutely breathtaking you looked right then. it was hard for him not to blurt out compliments at you at any given chance.

his hands found their place on your waist, and you let your hand snake around his neck, resting right where his haircut ended. it tickled him in a way that made him realise just how much he had missed your touch - hell, even talking to you reminded him of how lonely he’d felt without you.

slowly, the two of you swayed from side to side along to the song, just staring into each others eyes. clay sneaked a glance down at your lips, quickly averting his eyes again once you parted them.

“I’m really sorry we haven’t talked for so long,” you spoke, twirling a finger around one of his locks. “I miss it a lot. I missed you, clay.”

you stared at him with a look of guilt, biting down on your bottom lips once you'd finished your sentence. you looked down again, feeling sorry that you hadn't reached out to him before.

clay moved a hand to your cheek, tilting your head upwards so you'd look at him again. your eyes widened at the touch of his fingers, and you melted into his hand once his thumb bushed across the soft skin of your cheek.

“I missed you too, y/n. don't be sorry about that - I could’ve reached out too, y’know? we’re both guilty on that note. but, now that I can finally talk to you again, I don't wanna worry about the past, okay? I just want you to have a good night.”

you smiled softly at his words, feeling a wave of forgiveness wash over you. it felt good to know that you had your friend back again.

“I don't think my night can be ruined at this point,” you smiled, moving your hands from his nape to his shoulders instead.

“well, can I still make it a little bit better?” you raised an eyebrow at him, cocking your head to the side slightly.

his eyes fell down to look at your lips again, this time not being able to hold back from the temptation.

your lips attached to his.

and everything around you just stopped.

your eyes fluttered closed, leaning into the kiss once you realised what was happening, only making him pull you closer to him. his lips moved so gently, slowly against yours, a withheld desire finally being released.

who cared about the things that’d gotten in the way of your friendship? all that mattered right now was this very moment - that’s all that ever mattered.

“yes clay!”

“finally he fucking did it.”

the yelling coming from karl and nick from a distance away made the two of you break away from each other, turning your heads to the direction of them. george elbowed nick in the stomach to stop him from jumping into the air, revealing their spying spot.

you chuckled lightly at them, slowly turning your head back to clay with a lick of your lips. clay sent them a nice “fuck off” with his middle fingers, before also returning to the current situation and smiling at you widely.

“better now?”

you smiled wider at that. if only he knew.

Dear Serena, thank you very much for the scenario about Miya! I really fell in love with your wrining. You are a wonderful author. I'm your fan number one now. Thank you! Can I ask headcanons about being besties with Kuroo, Bokuto and Akaashi?

Besties - (Kuroo, Bokuto, Akaashi)

a/n: you’re so sweet, thank you 🥺 wasn’t sure if you wanted separate or not, so I just did both. Hope you enjoy 💞

Kuroo:

Being best friends with Nekoma’s captain is like having a big brother

A tall, annoying, obnoxious, exasperating, cocky...

Kuroo: “y/n, if you say one more negative thing about me I’ll make you wash our sweaty ass jerseys by hand”

Okay, he’s a valuable friend that you can rely on whenever you needed him

You’re the only one who can genuinely put up with his teasing, and he’s grateful for it so that he can let loose

You’re his #1. He’ll make sure there’s a seat saved for you next to him, you’re the first he calls when he’s inviting people

You’re at each other’s houses so much it’s almost weird for your parents to see one without the other. Pure definition of “two peas in a pod”

He’s your wingman and you are his. No matter how many time you tell him “I told you so”, you’re always willing to listen to his love problems and vice versa

He thinks no one is good enough for you

Whenever you tell him about your person of interest and he happens to see them on his walk with you, he’ll glare at them until they get the message

Each other’s number one supporter. You wear his number at his matches shouting “THAT’S MY BEST FRIEND”. And he’ll show up to your events. Loves to embarrass you by painting your name on his chest

You: “I know you mean well Tetsu, but for the love of god, put your shirt back on. This is an orchestra concert, not a sports event.”

Despite all the teasing, you love each other to death

Random: “You guys would look so cute together”

You and Kuroo: GAG

Love each other, but not that much

Bokuto:

Oh boy

He’s the reason you spend hundreds of dollars on ear plugs hopefully it won’t be a hearing aid next

Everyone always knows where you are thanks to Bokuto’s infamous “HEY HEY HEY Y/N!”

Always ready to come to your rescue at any time of need

He may not get things right at first, but will keep trying until you’re happy

Speaking of which, you seem to be the only one fluid enough to be able to keep up with all his mood swings

Have a mental book at the ready whenever you see a sign of a mood change then BAM he’s all better thanks to you

Loves to text you crackhead things in the dead hours of the morning, making you have to put your phone on silent if you have something important the next day

Bokuto @ 2 AM: “Okay but happens if you get scared half to death...twice?”

You: “Now hold on”

Will make it his duty to makes sure you always have a smile on your face, no matter how many brain teasers or tickle fights it takes

Wholesome bff

Akaashi:

Y’all radiate such powerful bffs-that-are-practically-siblings energy

Is such a sturdy shoulder to lean on

Both literally and metaphorically

Appears to be mostly the quiet type to everyone else, but to you he is totally more than that

Will tell you things like it is, thinks you deserve to hear the truth, in his own nice way

Is honestly such a sweetheart. You’re one of his top priorities

Keeps a couple of your smaller “necessities” in his bag in case you forgot yours: pads/tampons, mirror, hair ties

Tutors you in weak areas and vice versa

The two of you love to study together. He is super patient and will make sure you understand the material, all while giving you snack to keep you focused

Occasionally playfully threatens you if you don’t focus

Akaashi: “Well, since you’re not wanting to pay attention, I think we should call up Bokuto again”

You: “No! I’ll finish the problem I swear!!Have mercy...”

Is totally the opposite with you compared to Bokuto, probably cause you have common sense just like him

Whenever you need him, he will drop everything for you except volleyball practice might be harder since bokuto will not allow separation

Walking you home, even if his house is the opposite way, listening to your long rants on end,

He is definitely part of the Respectful Kings train

ALL ABOARD

Kuroo & Bokuto & Akaashi:

3 big bullies brothers that get on your nerves love you dearly

Kuroo was the one who brought you into their lil posse

From that day, y’all instantly clicked and now there’s no going back

Definitely have a gc, half is Kuroo and Bokuto saying the most crackhead things at random times of the day, and the other half is you and Akaashi telling them to “stfu and go to bed”

Sleepovers are a must!!

Y’all rotate duties, like who’s house it’s at, snack duty, movie picker, cleanup, etc.

The most bonding experiences the 4 of you have is at those sleepovers

Iconic one is you playing hairdresser with the fellas, aka the most gruesome workout you’ve ever had

Used about 20 diff products to fix Kuroo’s rooster bed head none of them worked

Seeing how many styles Bokuto’s hair could withstand

Gave Akaashi simple little braids all around to play it safe

Makeup challenges hyped you up

Seeing how clueless they were at the products made you laugh, but you had lessons on what each thing is used for

You do their faces, and they love their new looks so much they post selfies in it (Kuroo and Bokuto anyway, Akaashi’s in the background of the photos, just vibin)

Traditional group hugs whenever you needed to part ways ugh my heart

The most valuable friend group you can ever have

#haikyuu!!#haikyuu!! imagines #haikyuu headcanons #kuroo testuro #kuroo x reader #kuroo headcanons #kuroo imagine #bokuto kotaro #bokuto x reader #bokuto headcanons #bokuto imagine #akaashi keiji #akaashi x reader #akaashi headcanons #akaashi imagine #rena imagines

Sucker I xii

Prompt: Y/N attends a school for the supernatural, specifically: werewolves, witches and vampires. The school might be magic, but so is love, right? Right?

Genre: angst, fluff, slight smut

Pairing: reader x 00 line

Inspired heavily by: Legacies (and The Vampire Diaries&The Originals)

main m.list / sucker m.list / i ii iii iv v vi vii viii ix x xi xii xiii xiv xv

minsoo and jaemin vibin while everyone else is angsty (me giving them some stress free chapters before bringing the angst on them i mean what)

“I’m so glad you’re back.” Jaemin smiled at you as you walked back to your dorm after dinner.

“I wasn’t gone that long.” You teased as he laughed.

“Look, I’m sorry about being awkward, it’s just that things are really confusing right now and I don’t really know how to react to all of it, you know with the witch stuff and Renjun going missing and everything.” You said, seriously as you sat down on your bed.

“Hey, no need to apologize.” Jaemin said as he sat down next to you. “I’m just so glad you’re okay. I was so worried.” He said as he leaned closer to you and playing his hand on your thigh.

“Let me show you how glad I am you’re back.” He plead as you leaned forward to kiss him. His hand immediately went to your cheek as the other stayed on your thigh. You removed the hand from your thigh and slowly made your way onto his lap.

“You have no idea how long I’ve been waiting to kiss you like this.” he said as you smiled before attacking his lips again.

“Let me lead, for tonight at least.” he moaned into the kiss and you pulled away and looked into his eyes before nodding.

He smiled and told you to lay down. Before you could even process anything, he was on top of you, kissing you again as your hands made their way to his hair.

Just as he was about to take his shirt off, Jisoo walked in and immediately covered her eyes as she saw what was going on.

“Oh my god, I’m so sorry! I was planning on staying at Hana’s anyway, I just came for my-” “Jisoo, we’re both dressed, it’s okay.” jaemin reassured as she sighed and quickly took her toiletry bag and left after yelling “have fun!” and winking.

“Did that ruin the mood?” You asked, holding back your laugh.

“Kinda.” he laughed and gave you a quick kiss before saying “Now, where were we?”, causing you to smile and pull him down again to kiss him.

Meanwhile

You straddled him with a smirk on his face and started kissing him again. You ran your fingers through his hair as his hands trailed your body before resting on your ass, making you giggle into the kiss, which made him smirk before you pullled away, both of you breathless.

“What about Jaemin?” You asked. Haechan didn’t mean to keep replaying the memory of his dreams over and over, but he couldn’t stop.

If only he found a spell, which didn’t include dark magic. It was like wherever he looked, dark magic followed, like it was stalking him.

Meanwhile

“Jisung, I’m fine.” Jeno sighed “Hyung?” The younger one asked.

“Yes?” Jeno asked back, as he hit the punching bag again, making it explode.

“I told you. I have been a wolf longer than you, you know?” Jisung explained and pointed at the now destroyed bag.

“Whatever. Look, I’m fine. If she wants to be with Jaemin and if he makes her happy, then I have no business in any of that.” Jeno answered.

“Now, if you excuse me, I have to go scream into the void, as this bag is now dead.” Jeno fake smiled before leaving the gym.

“I know he’s losing it, but he’s insane if he thinks I’ll be the one cleaning that up.” Jisung said to himself, looking at the bag.

Time jump

“Hey, Ren?” You asked “Yeah?” Renjun asked, sitting alone at the table in the library.

“Can, can you help me find out who the man is?” You asked, sitting down next to him. You looked at him with hope in your eyes.

He tried to avoid eye-contact. You were with Jaemin and he knew he shouldn’t think of you like that, especially not now, but it was so hard.

You spent so much time together, not as much as before, because of Jaemin, but now, when you spent time together, he would always try his best not to think of you in that way. To think of you like a friend.

“Anything for you, y/n.” He smiled as your face light up “Thank you!” You said, kissing his cheek before taking out your notebook.

He tried not to think much of it, he was searching the identity of the man already and he was searching about the prophesy as well and why you fit into his plan. Humanity is key, but you were a witch.

Maybe it was about the humanity switch, but only vampires had that. Besides, if you did turn into one, you would lose your witch abilities, so the thought of you being “the one with the power of three”, which he deciphered was a tribrid, wasn’t possible.

You weren’t a werewolf either so you couldn’t be the one. Maybe you were the savior? But were the savior and the one the same person? Was the one in the first part the same as in the last? He didn’t know.

“What’s that?” You asked as you noticed the text. ““The one with the power of three, humanity is key to stop the killing spree, listen to the swan or all will be gone, the savior will be the one.” You read out loud before looking at Renjun.

“It’s....” Renjun had to decide. Tell you about the prophesy and possibly put you in more danger or lie and protect you.

As Hana and Jisoo cuddled on one of the chairs, Minsoo and Jaemin looked out the window of the tree house and argued over which one has the best skin.

“Feel it, baby skin.” Minsoo said stretching his own face, “No, you feel this, this is baby skin.” Jaemin protested and did the same. Both of them sighed and pinched the other’s cheeks as Hana and Jisoo laughed.

They turned around to them as Jaemin asked “What?”

“Oh, y/n would be so jealous if she saw you right now.” Hana laughed.

a/n: which do you think Renjun will do? I’m curious abt what u guys think. As you can tell, Jaemin and y/n are currently dating, but that doesn’t mean that they will be endgame, they may be, they may not be, stay tuned to find out because norenhyuck are still whipped for y/n....

hey, i know this is a huge ask, but i think it would be great if at some point (maybe after landslide is complete) if you could do one of those writing tip books like the ones on wattpad? i absolutely adore your writing style, and how well structured all of your stories are. i am really struggling with the character development side of writing at the moment (and i’m sure lots of people will struggle with plotting) but you are sooo good at it! i just think it would help a lot of people, including me, if you could give us a few tips! all i want to become better at writing, and i think it would really help! again, it is a huge ask, but out of all the band of brothers books on wattpad and tumblr, yours are just about my favourite, and i would love it if you did consider my suggestion! 💖

HELLO ANON!!! First of all thank you for making my morning :D The past few weeks haven’t been the greatest, but we all have those weeks - but I treated myself to some coffee from Dunkin this morning and I’m listening to some music, vibin, and just slowly getting my morning started since I have some schoolwork to complete! So, this is what really made my morning, just everything you said truly - I can’t begin to even thank you! Writing is such a huge passion of mine and for years it has been the thing I can come to when my mind is scrambled and I feel I have nothing to really focus on - writing brings me right back!

THANK YOU OMG!! That means the world that you enjoy my writing style! I have to say, it has developed incredibly (just from my own personal point of view because man a few years back it was a SIGHT TO BEHOLD LMAO!!) and truly, with who I am, I’m proud of where I am with my writing and where I’ve come from! Part of growing as a writer is simply just writing, in massive chunks and learning what you like, what you don’t, and what YOU want to write and read. In 2020 I wrote over 800,000 words and I went through 3 different fics last year and I can 100% see the changes in myself as a writer (and it was worth it!). AWE THANKS :,) I really try to structure my stories through a reader POV, with saying “okay, how will a reader view this, does it flow and make sense for the reader?” Because I know that I know everything as the writer in the opening chapters, but the reader doesn’t and I have to make sure when I start incorporating ideas that are larger that I don’t complicate it to the point of complete confusion (if that makes sense!)

I actually have considered many times before doing a ‘writing tip’ book! Currently, though I have Landslide on a roll and FFTB (a future BOB WIP) up and coming, I have branched into Original works and other fandoms as well and I’ve taken a lot of what I’ve learned from the Band of Brothers OC community into my hands and it has helped me more than ANYTHING! So I will 100% consider it most definitely!

I’ve had new writers come to me on Wattpad recently just trying to work out their OCs or where they want their fic to go, and how to make it original and I’ve been so honored and privileged to be able to help them in anyway I could AND THAT’S what got me thinking about making a ‘writing tips’ book actually! :D So I will 100% be considering it, especially when Landslide is over, I can promise you that.

Creating in this fandom has allowed for so much growth within me personally, and I feel many other incredible authors in the fandom can completely agree. I’ve been in the fandom since late 2018 (maybe December) and I started uploading Sunshine Solider in early 2019 and being now in my 2nd(?) year or 3rd (?) if I’m correct, sorry it’s early here LOL - ok definitely 3rd - constant writing is what I can recommend - and sometimes it SUCKS. But writing (1) should be fun, if anything. It should be simply fun and I think that’s the greatest gift out of writing in fandom is simply the joy of creating a story that you love and put your heart into and just being able to hit that post button and feel accomplished for something as wonderful as that. It’s the little things that bring so much joy and hitting that upload button is one of them!!

AWE GOSH THANK YOU!!!! <3 <3 That means the world to me omg!! My lil OCs are like my children (HAHA!) and I know many others can agree with that! Sometimes you don’t even know all the ins and outs of them! But they’re like your kids as you develop and grow with them through the story! So thank you for that, it means a lot! :D

OKAY - I totally get the character development struggle 100%! And it would definitely be one of the things I’d put some time into, in the Writing Tips book because I feel it’s very important! You want your OC to essentially be human - their pros, their cons, their flaws, what makes them happy, sad, neutral....all that sort of stuff! And I totally agree, there’s so much that just goes into simply crafting a character, an OC, a human being for a story.

Something I’ve learned, and I know not many people are probably like this, but it’s what gets me going is actually just writing a blurb (whether it is in the story or not) and try and capture their voice. My 3 *MAIN* OCs, Charlotte, Hazel and Natia all have their own voices, and in their ways are entirely different and flipping from voice to voice was quite the challenge but one I felt was fantastic for me as a writer and a good learning experience. Not everyone has a similar voice! What’s their little quirk they sort of have as an OC? Maybe their ‘brand’ if you call it that....or do they repeat something regularly and how does it connect to them as an OC? (This is all just little things that could become a huge thing in the long run!) But most definitely, just start WRITING, simply just writing and find that voice and once you hit it, it’s really off to the races.

I know after finding Natia’s voice (which was incredibly hard at first, I feel she’s a complex character in my opinion and so that makes it a little more difficult to hit it just right) it was pretty easy to just go off and write - she’s someone very much in her mind, she speaks somewhat lyrical as well, not like a song, but it flows - she has confidence. And so that comes across in writing. I feel it’s just little things like that, which become very noticeable to the reader just by dialogue even, sometimes!

I hope in some way these little points helped, and I’m currently inhaling a large coffee ( I have schoolwork to attend to soon - ie ap stats lol! ) but truly I hope this helped and I am 100% considering a writing tips book. I know there are many new writers in the fandom and I know in some way even if it is not for all, it could help even just one person! And I’m happy to provide my bits of knowledge that I’ve gathered personally (and even from some of my writer friends out there as well who I will consult if they have things to add as well!). Writing is definitely hard, and it’s something that you get better at with simply practicing, but also reading others works, talking to writers and just getting tips and knowing who YOU are. If you know who you are, I feel you know how you want your story to come out if anything!

Feel free to stop on by my DM’s! I’ve been late on messages from some people (only because of my schoolwork recently, it’s been quite intense!) but I’m working through them and I’ll be able to talk privately about things and maybe help you flesh out some ideas if you have any yourself - this goes for anyone reading too!!! But truly, I’d be happy to chat, so really thank you so much for this message it means a lot to me and I’m glad my writing can be seen that way - 2 years here has paid off (LOL!!)

THANK YOU!!!

#sweet anons!!#this was so kind omg you're a lovely gem truly <3 #writing tips #writing #writers #writing opinions #just some things i've picked up over the past 2 years!!!!#this goes for anyone - you can always stop by!

The Serpent's Shadow || J.HS || 6

Pairing : Jung Hoseok X Reader

Genre : Finalky sum fluff lol

Summary : But how could the Serpent ever know? What's happening behind his back? In his own Shadow? Without looking back?

This story is IN the Harry Potter time line!

( Deathly Hallows Part one & two)

Wordcount: 1k

The Serpent's Shadow Masterlist | Next

" Let's go on a date." You said as you dropped your books back on the table in The Great Hall.

Hoseok choked on his pumpkin juice as you so bluntly ' asked him out'.

" What?" He asked as he managed to catch his breath.

" Let's go to Hogsmeade. We can invite the other if they want to come allong." You smile at him.

Oh. He thinks.

Of course you're just asking him to hangout. He ignores his lightly tinted cheeks at the reminder of your way of talking.

" Okay, I'll get Jimin, Taehyung, Namjoon and Yoongi, will you get the rest?" He asked.

You nodded, the big smile on your face as present as ever.

" See you at the doors in half an hour." You smiled before starting to pack your books back in your bag.

Hoseok started doing the same.

" Okay."

And so the two of you parted ways. You went ahead to your common room to start by Jin, while Hoseok stayed there and went to Namjoon and Jackson who were studying and laughing together.

" Hey guys. Y/N and I are going to Hogsmeade. Wanna come allong?" He asked the both of them.

Sure, Jackson was not on the list but who cares.

" Like now?" Namjoon asked.

Hoseok shrugged.

" We're meeting at the doors' in half an hour."

" Oh, okay. Jackson, wanna come too?" Namjoon asked turning to his friend.

" Sure." He smiled.

" What doors does he mean?" Jackson wishpered to hsi friend.

Hoseok heard Namjoon's quiet, gentle, laugh.

" The ones at the front of the castle."

Hoseok smiled softly at the conversation as he left the hall, going find Yoongi next. He leaves Jimin and Taehyung for last, knowing that they were always together but a little difficult to find as they're usually in trouble.

" Okay so where do we go first?" Jimin asks as all of you arrive in Hogwarts.

" How about we go to Zonko's?" Taehyung suggests.

" Aren't we getting too old for Zonko's? Besides we're suposed to set the good example for the younger students. Whatever it is you want from Zonko's won't help in that." Namjoon pointed out.

" So we're going to Zonko's?" Jackson asks with a cheeky smile.

Namjoon looks at him with a ' you serious' face.

" Let's go guys! I need some stuff from there anyway." Jin cheers as you all start walking in the direction of the store.

You snort while Hoseok whole heartedly laughs.

" Jin! You're a prefect!-" Namjoon yelled before being called out.

" Yah! I'm not in school right now. I'm a prefect in school." He yelled right back with his silly smile.

" Who are you outside of school?" You ask, also with a smile on your face.

" Outside of school? Worldwide Handsome Kim Seokjin." He said as he blew a kiss at you which caused you all to laugh.

" Yes Hoseok, well done!" You yelled as Hoseok scored for his team.

Sure, they were playing against Joon's team, and yes, you were standing in Ravenclaw's bleacher, but what's wrong with cheering for your best friend who happens to be in Slytherin? Besides, you weren't the only one. Jin, Jimin, Jungkook and Taehyung seem to do the same thing. Namjoon's the only one who's yelling at Hoseok to stop scoring points. Yoongi was Slytherin's keeper, and he too was doing a good job.

The game went on for another fourthy minutes before the end signal was heard and Hoseok and Yoongi were quick to meet the rest of you in front of the quidditch field.

" Good job guys!" You smiled as you congratulated both guys by giving them a smack of their shoulder.

Yoongi smiled shyly while Hoseok took you in his arms, gathering you in a hug.

" Yah! Hobi! You're sweaty don't do that-"

" Don't fight his love Y/N! Accept it!" Taehyung cheered in the background.

" Yeah! Just accept my love Y/N! You do love your Hobi right!" Hoseok smiled his big heart smile.

" Yes, of course I do! But that doesn't mean you need to hug me while you stink!"

" What? You want a kiss with it?!"

Hoseok smiled softly while looking at his friends over his butterbeer.

What a mess you all were. There's Taehyung who's kind of high on firewhiskey across from him, Jungkook who seems to find everything funny beside the male. You laughing while sitting beside Hoseok himself at one of Jin's stories. Yoongi's silent gummy smile and Namjoon pinching his eyes shut at Jimin's cute behavior.

In Hoseok's eyes everything just seemed so perfect in this moment. Everyone of you happy. Not all too worried about finals, and simply forgetting for a moment about the tension since Potter joined the school. You all felt as normal Hogwarts student, happy and vibin'.

Hoseok hoped that these type of moments never changed.

Hoseok stared at the empty courtyard where students like him used to be chilling at this time. Instead now it was empty, no trace of any student there. Nowhere in the castle was the happy chattering of teenagers and young adults. Instead there's now silence and fear hanging in the air.

Hoseok's eyes refocus as he's snapped out of his memories as a crude voice enters his ears.

" ...Nice, don't you think? The silence. No more annoying chattering of teenagers." One of the random teachers who Hoseok doesn't recognise speaks.

Hoseok simply nods, not in the mood to speak to whatever death eater this is.

Not nice at all, I never wanted to change any of it.

[ A/N: Lol hey, sorry for the sorta late update. I wanted to put sum fluff in dis but I didn't really kniw how to put it in the story but here it is lol.]

- i keep doing the sugar by brockhampton dance i literally can't stop it's fine

- and thank god peter somehow doesn't notice

- like your movements are so subtle but you deadass keep doing it like once per minute

- and so you get up

- like "fuck this, man. if it's stuck in my head i'm at least gonna make a tiktok"

- and so you set it up

- peter's still on the couch in the background

- this boy STILL doesn't really notice what you're doing

- to be fair hsmtmts is a very enticing show ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

- but as soon as the audio plays peter recognizes it

- his head WHIPS over to you

- the song continues to play as you snort, wheezing as he balances you

- the video finishes and you raise your eyebrows at him

- "no throwing it back on camera," he says pointedly

- you tilt your head in a way that screams peter i love you but you and i both know that i can do what i wanna do and over-protectiveness can be toxic

- he sighs

- "okay, you can, but i'd like it better if it were just for me"

...

- HAHAHAHA

- okay NEXT ONE

- this next one is inspired by @ritxal

- in this one you can choose your relationship

- so peter is a natural born softboy

- he didn't choose the softboy life, the softboy life chose him

- but here's the thing

- it was friday night

- you were bored

- and, bored as hecc, you decide to whip out your phone and copy this video you'd seen

- you begin filming and place your right hand on top of peter's left (yay classmates!! sitting next to each other WHOOP!)

- his gaze is hard on his paper as he continues to scribble down notes

- you turn the camera to him for a bit and you're like yes perfect

- and then you return the camera and pull your hand away

- and he REACHES OVER AND TAKES YOUR HAND BACK

- AND YOU'RE LIKE Y E S

- IT WORKED OUT

- PLUS HE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW AND HE'S SO CUTE

- you put the phone down, smiling, adjusting your hand a little before you realize you can't take notes anymore because your hand is occupied and using your left hand just aint it period (a/n: im so sorry if any of y'all are left handed lol but pretend y'all are in opposite positions so he has your left hand haha)

- and it's then that he looks at you

- and if his eyes don't make you MELT

- okay i'm sorry that last one was mediocre but you get the point

- alright so like in this process of writing this i've been struggling a bit with details and stuff and making it sound good and funny so they're gonna be short and sweet bc i literally don't know What To Do :)))))))))))))))))

- back to your regularly scheduled programming hell yeah

- this one's for you, @drecming

- back at it again with the ideas!!!! fuck yes!!!

- okay SO

- where the guys hand is on the girl's thigh (OR IF YOU'RE A DUDE READING THIS JUST STILL IMAGINE YOUR OWN LEG I TRY TO KEEP THIS GENDER NEUTRAL BUT I FORGET AND PLUS RN IM JUST EXPLAINING THE TIKTOK KJSDBVIBUV) and then she pulls her leg away and the music is like

- anyways

- peter's hand is just vibing on your leg

- for you dirty minded folks no it's not vibrating or doing all that janky shit we're children of god here

- says the one who just said the s word OOPS

- and you, as per usual, pull up the sound and start recording

- peter hears the music and is like Huh????

- and then you pull your leg away, grinning at him cheekily before he grabs you, phone flying out of your hand and he pulls you into his lap

"my thigh"

- you give him a look like excuse me sir hUh

- "why do you have my phone?"

- you've never slammed it onto the bed so fast

- "no reason"

- he raises a suspicious eyebrow before picking up his phone and unlocking it

- and the fear in his eyes when the screen opens to his video

- he looks back up at you, mouth slightly open in fear/awe/ohshitohgodohFUCK

- and you and your goddamn mouth-

- "peter, it's hot"

I Know The Way There [John Lennon] - Part 6

~~Lydia gets a talking to...again. This time she asks for it, well one of them.~~

Part 1 l Part 2 l Part 3 l Part 4 I Part 5

We vibin’ to Ten Years Gone this time

Word Count: 1818

{I thought querentine would make me write more, but it turns out that it just takes away all my motivation. So I’m sorry it’s been a literal month. I hope you still want to read it. This one is a bit longer so I hope that makes up a little bit. I also feel like I can see my writing slowly getting better, which is really what I want to get out of writing.}

“He chased you?!” The twins exclaim.

“Yeah,” I look up waving my hands around, “not like in a creepy ‘I’m gonna murder you’ way. At least I don’t think so…”

Cole eyes me over his glasses, “You don’t think so? That’s not exactly comforting Lydia.”

“Fine. I know he’s not a murderer.”

“You think your funny don’t you?” Cole points at me.

I smile widely, “Yes, yes I do.”

The conversation tapered off from there. Devolving into the normal backstage talk. I felt lucky that they dropped the conversation where it was, I’ve never been very good at lying. Cole could usually tell when I did anyway.

Our show was pretty good, other than the fact I was thinking about John the whole time and kept fucking up; playing the wrong chords and missing my ques. I’d never been like this before. My brain was so clouded. Something is wrong with me.

I rush backstage after the show, getting my guitar into its case. My instinct is to grab a bottle from the fridge. I go and take the last bottle of whisky but just as I’m closing the door to the fridge, Sam grabs the bottle from my hand.

“Hey!” I reach for the bottle, “That’s mine!”

He opens the bottle and takes a swig of the dark amber liquid. “You think I’m gonna let you drink after that?” He cocks his eyebrow.

“Just give me the bottle Sam,” He goes and holds the bottle above his head. Even in heels, my five-three is no match for his six-two.

“I’ll give it to you when you explain yourself,” He takes another drink then returns the bottle to its position above us.

I look up at Sam, his bright blue eyes have the same spark of mischievous joy they did the day I met him. It seems like an eternity ago to me, but it was only five years ago. Time moves so much slower when you have so much of it to spare. I feel like we both should be old and withered, but here we are, still too young and pretty for our own good. Though I still so clearly remember the older boy cheering me up during my freshman orientation. He had found me crying and having a panic attack in a stairwell. And being the kind soul he is thought that giving a fourteen-year-old a cigarette and a pat on the back was the best course of action. It worked, so I guess I can’t harp on him too much. Since then, he’s always had my back.

But I still can’t be truly honest with him, not about this.

“You wouldn’t get it.” I turn away from him, going to get my purse and coat.

Sam’s shoulders lower and the bottle falls to his side. “I just want to help, Lyds,” He sounds sincere, with a hint of sadness.

I guess that’s going around tonight.

“Listen, Sam,” I quickly spin to face him, “I don’t want your help.” I make my way to the door.

“I’ll be here when you do.”

I freeze in the doorway, sighing deeply, and make a half turn before shaking my head and walking away. Right past the others; Cole trying to stop me. I hear Lexi telling him to leave it be.

The back halls are filled with people as the night is starting to really get started. It’s making it hard to keep my head cool. When I find the backdoor, I pause again. Maybe I should go back and apologize for being a bitch.

Why do I always cover up by being a bitch?

I throw my hood up and exit the building, into the wet Seattle night. It feels so much like the moment I was outside The Cavern. This is the type of weather I’m used to. Wet and cold, even in the midsts of summer. There are still a lot of people out here, how very Seattle of them. I begin my walk in the rain, not really sure where I’m headed.

I don’t think I can go back to the house, it would just feel weird right now.

I could go to dad’s place, but I don’t really want to be asked any more questions.

But I do need to talk this out…

“Guess it’s time to go see mom.”

My phone vibrates in my pocket. I’ve been gone not five minutes and momma Cole is already calling me. Silencing my phone, I try to find a secluded place to jump. That’s not exactly easy at this time of night, in this part of town. Maybe I should go back to the venue, I could definitely find a closet or office to jump in, but I’m already pretty far away. I look again at my phone, if I hurry I can make it to the Seattle Center and find a place in the Armory before it closes. Sliding my phone back into my pocket, I start a quick-paced jog toward the towering monument of the city.

When I reach the heart of the city, I am completely drenched. At least I can be inside for a bit. Pulling open the door I’m greeted with the smells of all kinds of foods, most predominately, pizza. The warmth of the crowded galleria envelopes my shivering body as I quietly make my way through the food court. It’s nice to be inside again. I pass the stage, where some sort of show is happening, it appears to be an amateur play. Part of me wants to stay and watch, but like always, I’m trying to be seen the least amount possible. Anyway, the last time I tried to get close to an interesting performance I ended up completely blowing the whole “anonymity” thing.

I pass behind the small audience of the show, to the back where the bathrooms are. Just from the slight separation of the bathroom’s hall, it’s much quieter. And much more secluded, but there are still people around. So I quietly sneak myself up the stairs, looking for cameras as I do. When I find a blindspot I lean against the wall and take a deep breath, closing my eyes, preparing myself for the jump. This is the most amount of times I’ve done this in such a small period of time, and I don’t know how much more my body can take.

My body releases the tension it’s holding, and when my eyes snap open I’m collapsed on the wet ground heaving for air. Clutching my chest, heart on the verge of bursting, I try to get my breathing steady. It takes a few minutes before I regain myself.

As I stand, I find myself in rain again, this time with the added bonus of it being nearly impossible to see three feet in front of me. The darkness surrounding me is almost hypnotizing. The only light coming from the moon. In the distance, I hear the howling of what I assume is a coyote. A familiar, crude, path of stone stretches into the darkness at my feet. I hop from one slab to the next, having done this a hundred times.

At the end of the path, I’m faced with a standing stone on a cliff. Okay, well it’s less of a standing stone and more of a taller than average stone with smaller stones stacked on top of it. All around are unlit lanterns and wildflowers. I grab a lighter out of my purse, illuminating the candles in the lanterns as I approach the monument. With each candle, the aura of the quiet cliff becomes warmer. More comforting. As the last wick is ignited, I sit down cross-legged next to the makeshift obelisk.

“Hey, mama,” it comes out quiet.

“Hey, sweetie. I haven’t seen you in forever.”

“I know, it’s been a while. I’ve been meaning to come by,” I shrug, placing my hand behind my head

“Your father said that when he was here last.”

“I’m glad to see dad’s been here recently, these candles seem pretty fresh. So does the gardening,” my whole body is tense.

“Yeah, it’s nice, but how are you doing? You seem distraught.”

“Yeah, things have been pretty awful lately,” my voice quakes.

“What’s been going on?”

I don’t want to admit it out loud, “I’m sinking back into my old ways. The drinking, the partying, the pushing everyone away.”

“Well, that’s no good.”

“Yes I know that’s not good. Why do you think I’m talking to you about it?”

“You’re right, but I’m just trying to be light.”

“This is more than just the normal angst, mama. It’s about the time travel. It’s about a boy. It’s about my expectation of life,” I lower my head.

“A boy?”

“Why is everyone so focused on the boy?”

“Because here, we’re just supposed to be a normal mother and daughter.”

“Right this is supposed to be normal talk. No superpowers,” I sigh.

“So go on, no time travel though.”

“This one’s gonna be hard to work around that bit.”

“Is it Sam? Did you tell him yet?”

Huffing, “No, it’s not Sam,” this can be so exhausting.

“Well, tell me who it is already!”

“Okay fine, his name is John. And I felt a spark,” I gingerly touch my hands together. “A real one, like how you describe it with dad.”

“Is this like when you felt a ‘spark’ with Grace, or Jake?”

“I swear it’s not like all the other times,” A blush creeps across my face. “It is new though, but I just know that it feels right.”

“You should go for it then.”

I look into my lap, “It’s not going to be that easy.”

“Why not?”

“Well, he’s famous.”

“Okay.”

“And he has a girlfriend,” I mumble

“Oh…”

“And he’s from the past,” It comes out barely a whisper.

“Oh, God.”

“Oh god indeed. I don’t know what I’m supposed to do,” I put my head in my hands.

“I don’t know…”

“This would be so much easier if I could actually ask you,” I choke back a sob. “It’s all gonna work out. That’s what you would say,” tears flow freely, my body shaking with sobs. “I wish you were here mama.” I smile down at the framed photo sitting in front of me.

I sat there in the rain. Letting it soak into me as I choked on my breaths for the fifth time today. The torrents of water drowning the lanterns, leaving me in darkness. The rain eventually had to let up. Like the rain, my tears had to stop eventually, I could cry no more. There was nothing left. And I was left in the silence of the night.

I’d made up my mind. I was going to see John again. I had to try and get him, even if it can only end poorly.
