Sooo Paralives and the Brainwashing EA has done
It's funny. Paralives launched a gameplay video that looks really good, along with some announcements. One of them being that they won't be offering paid DLC. I was watching Satch on Sims and him, plus a few other people, seem to think this is a bad move.
Tumblr media
No shade, but it's easy to tell people who don't really game and all they play is the Sims. Like EA got yall so brainwashed that you actually think you're SUPPOSED to be getting charged for base game features.
His concern was wanting a different world to play in or different aethitics. Who said we can't get that for free? We may not know what all features Paralives are going to offer, but what rule says that they can't give us another world to play in for free? I mean literally, there are so many games that do free updates and only offer DLC if it's a niche theme that not everyone would be into, or if they're adding ADDITIONAL gameplay that has no resemblance to what's already in the game.
Only EA removes base game features just to sell them back to you later. Or expect you to buy a multitude of different DLCs that have the exact same theme or niche. Now don't mind me while I gripe on this point a little.
Growing Together and Parenthood should have been one generations themed pack.
Discover University and High School Years should have been one pack focused on education.
All of the occults (vamps, wolves, witches, ghosts, aliens, mermaids, plant people) all should have been in ONE paranormal pack.
Features from Dine Out should have been included in Get to Work. There was no need for that to be seperate DLC when they both relate to active careers.
For Rent and City Living should have been one pack.
Simple features that should not be locked behind a pay wall, and I'm not even talking weather. Like why do I have to buy DLC just for my sims to have access to a hot tub (Perfect Patio), an ice cream maker (Cool Kitchen), a popcorn maker (movie night), for them to have the ability to carve a pumpkin or have different holloween costumes, when Holloween is a holiday that comes in the base game with base game ability to trick or treat, etc. (Spooky Stuff), I have to buy Vintage Glamour just to have a butler (if anything the butler should have been in get famous along with everything in the luxury stuff pack. These are all things that should just be base game that they force you to buy DLC to have access to.
And speaking of weather, I do feel like packs like seasons, pets, laundry day, bust the dust, and my wedding stories should all be base game features. Yeah I don't care if we're used to paying for stuff like seasons and pets, things can and should change. These are all life basics, why am I paying extra?
Now I'm not all negative. There are packs that actually make sense. Get Famous makes sense. So does Island Living, Strangervile, all the vacation packs (jungle, outdoor, snowy). Hell, even Journey to Batuu made sense. Yeah, hear me out. These are all OPTIONAL packs. Stuff that not everyone is going to play with but they each bring something different to the game. Now whether any of these packs are filled to the brim with playable content, thats another story. But at least the concept makes sense.
Okay, off my soapbox and moving on.
I will forever and always use No Man's Sky as an example of a development team that chose integrity over money. That team has been releasing update after update for YEARS. Significant updates too. Updates that completely change the gameplay mechanics, adds brand new features to the game, or updates/changes the look of the game. All for free. Yes, it's normal. Not normal in the sense that these companies should be releasing broken games or not delivering on promises to begin with, but at least they weren't money-hungry assholes about it. The amount of updates that game has, quite a few could have been paid DLC and they didn't do that. Now if they started releasing DLC with specialty ships or different cosmetic features, I would have no problem paying for that cause it's optional.
Paralives knows what they're doing. As long as they are focused on making the base game everything it's supposed to be, I don't see why they couldn't sell the type of optional DLC that makes sense in the future. But I'm certainly not going to say that they're making a mistake by not having paid DLC right now.
I can definitely see them adding things like weather, a new life stage, or new clothes/build objects for free and that's dope. I'm excited about Paralives more so than Life By You. But either way, I'm just glad EA has competition in the life simulation genre now that isn't just about farming management.

I've been raving about the parallels between Antoni Kosiba of the 1981 polish movie classic Znachor and Harrier Du Bois of the hit indie game Disco Elysium to my friend today only to be informed he has never watched the movie and the rush of humilitation was so intense i had to pass it on further down the line so here we are
i feel like it would be prudent to explain the plot of Znachor beforehand but as I am on a bit of a time crunch and don't believe in leaving things in the drafts for later: have a brief rundown here and the movie itself with english subtitles if any of you happened to be interested here
Moving on
I wanted to start it nicely but turns out I don't have the brainpower but just hear me out and LOOK AT THEM
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
RAFAŁ Wilczur later takes on the identity of Antoni Kosiba, playing Harry we can make him introduce himself as RAPHAEL Ambrosius Costeau (Rafał and Raphael being essentially the same name, Costeau and Kosiba sound a little alike AND Antoni and Ambrosius both start with A followed by a voiceless nasal consonant (dental and bilabial respectively)
Both have mildly to severely questionable facial hair
The fucking bird on on his head tell me Harry wouldnt wear that
BOTH ARE AMNESIAC!! BOTH (WELL TECHNICALLY) GOT THERE WITH A BIG HELPING OF ALCOHOL (to be fair Wilczur got robbed and beaten up but honestly you could say Harry got robbed and beaten up by life itself and kinda by his pre-amnesia self too walk with me walk with me)
Left by their wife/fiance feeling so sad about it they end up drunk out the wazoo
Rafał has a daughter and while Harry doesn't have kids he strikes me as a v much daughter guy which might sound incomprehensible but i know in my heart of hearts im right
Rafał has an assistant whos big jelly of his career successes Docent Jerzy Dobraniecki, Harry has a partner whom he wronged pre-canon and had-has a weird co-dependent aggrieved-divorcelike bromance-relationship with satellite officer Jean Vicquemare
both crazy good at their jobs
both pick these jobs back up even while amnesiac out the wazoo
hobo-adjacent in that you can be a hobocop in DE and Rafał-Antoni Kosiba ends up essentially homeless and wandering after he wakes up with no memories
Rafał goes back to Warsaw to his old job when he discovers his memory, Harry comes back to work at the 41st in a (somewhat questionably) good ending of the game
????
Profit
Rafał-Antoni is kinda a perfect flawless human being and Harrier has like all the flaws and i love him about it and also think its kind of a funny dichotomy
thats it i just needed to get it off my chest
OH LAST ONE: wilczur can be roughtly translated to a wolf dog or a german shepherd and harry is compared to a dog a lot throughout the series
now im done
please watch Znachor, or please play Disco Elysium thanksthanks

The true missed opportunity of Stranger Things should have been the older teens all solving the season's mystery together, Scooby Doo style and all the chaos that would cause
First and most obvious you have Nancy and Steve who have history
Steve and Jonathan who had a fight and Nancy basically cheated on Steve with Jonathan
Nancy and Jonathan are the only couple in the group and are disgustingly in love
Then you have Billy who has beef with everyone but he's the most intimating and strong and knows how to fight so they need him (who also inserts himself into the group because he's nosy, hates being left)
Billy is smarter than everyone gives him credit for (not book smarts but street smarts and the most emotionally intelligent out of the group, even though he acts like a dick). He keeps Nancy on her toes and Billy obviously doesn't like how she acts like she's better than him and also because she cheated on Steve
Him and Steve are rivals too but Billy likes Steve the best from the group but doesn't know how to show it
Steve is trying to be civil but is convinced Billy hates him, and is just plain tired of his bullshit. Also Billy beat the shit out of him that one time and they haven't resolved that so there's that
Also Steve is confused because Billy is bullying him but it feels like flirting (it is, in fact, just Billy flirting but in his dumb way)
Billy also has beef with Jonathan because of his involvement in the Steve/Nancy situation but also Billy sees himself in Jonathan, they have a lot in common and Billy hates how meek Jonathan is, even though he was strong enough beat the shit out of Steve
Robin she just eats snacks and is watching all the drama and chaos unfold
Robin is nosy but likes to keep her secrets close, like maybe she had a crush on Nancy at some point, and now she's BFFs with Steve and also knows Billy is super gay for Steve
Maybe Robin and Jonathan were friends when they were in primary school because they were outcasts and relentlessly bullied but stopped talking to each other suddenly and kept pretending like they don't know one another
Also Nancy (for all her book smarts) is bad at feelings so she's convinced that Robin and Steve are secretly dating and that Billy hates and bullies Steve
Their team name is the Scooby Gang
Also because it's fun Billy would be the Fred of the group, Steve is Daphne, Nancy is Velma, Jonathan has major Shaggy vibes and Robin, idk, I don't wanna say Scooby but then I laugh when I imagine her in a scooby fursuit 😆

The Transformation Thoughts
bc hsmtmts said gay rights
spoilers below

RICKY’S SHIRT!?!?!?! 
i love it
ricky is lgbt do not try to convince me otherwise
ASHLYN IS SINGING IT IS BEAUTIFUL
like pop off
ricky and the mask
that mask is the true villain in season 2
“Belle, I-” flops
Ashlyn is carrying the scene, she is such a good Belle
how is ricky allowed on stage oh my god
the cap
that damn mask
“It’s okay, it was just my face”
Miss Jenn is hanging on by a thread
finally some ashlyn and ricky content
“Which they will” buddy have you faced the music? Have you seen Ricky?
“I think I might have been playing Troy at one point”
Miss Jenn needs help from someone who isn’t a teenager
“Mother is freaking out” High school theater at it’s finest
“There is math involved”
“OH” 
sassy seb
i can’t with east high’s tech crew, what are you doing?!?!
and why are the actors figuring out the tech stuff?!? i’m sure kourt, big red, ashlyn (she knows all), and seb (he lives on a farm) know what to do. 
the crew cannot be that bad
btw here are my thoughts on this scene
guys it is ashlyn’s house not yours
portwell shoulder bump
ASHLYN I LOVE YOU
OH SO NOW YOU HAVE DRILLS
WHERE WERE THEY WHEN THE TECHIES STARTED USING GLUE ON PLYWOOD!?!?!?!
I WANT ANSWERS
i. cannot. with. this. show.
lily wtf
“is this too weird” yes
like why?
lily like actually shut up
big red’s “wtf”
let her be evil damnit
“i’m just not well liked here” i wonder why
that was really weird, anyways
“he gets weird around tools”
me too
no give big red the drill he knows how to use it
someone write a fic about the girls and seb’s chaotic target run
why don’t you have a blackout and dramatic music and lights for the transformation, i know it isn’t award level but if done right it can be pretty dope
“I don’t know if my parents will be okay with me being at a co-ed sleepover”
“Chip, this is your mother speaking, go call your mother”
HE DID THE FINGER GUNS
GAY TABLE SIT AND FINGER GUNS THEY DID THEIR RESEARCH
ashlyn’s bucket
CARLOS GAY TABLE SIT
OH MY GOD
they’re so gay soulmates
let big red have his skateboards
“i need to talk to seb at some point but it can wait” honey no it can’t wait seb is on the verge of a breakdown
wait they havent talked in a week
Im a hypocrite ive been dancing around someone for three years
“You’re still at school”
“I’m worried about my children” “She means us”
such a high school theater thing (like i got married during high school theater, we had a family tree)
“ah, Sebby”
“Now I’m pretty sad” give him a hug
the girls ship seblos
“But, I guess he has to be, out of default, right... there’s not a lot of choices for a boy like Carlos, here, at East.”
alright here come the tears 
why...why couldn’t he say “gay” or “queer” or “lgbt”?!?!
“Not so good at saying the feelings part out loud”
shiz that hit close to home. 
Seb is just making me cry today, isn’t he?
wait so we’re just going to change the subject? coming from a queer person, opening up about your problems about your sexuality is hard. like, there are things that happened years ago im just telling people. 
“You’re my sister, he’s my cousin”
it seems everyone except nina knows about the chocolates. imagine gossip time when gina told people write a fic
Nini just stop talking. It wasn’t a big deal, simple mistake. Not everything has to be big and dramatic
and wasn’t she just asking about Gina and Ej? 
Nini for the love of god it is not something to read into.
“The farmer type”
Ash and Red exchanging gossip
wait... why are they texting about this?
“Why wouldn’t he say something to me?” It’s a hard conversation to have. “hey are we together just because i’m your only option?” 
“Okay, pretty boy” HE CALLED HIM PRETTY BOY
RICKY!!!!!!!!!!
!!!
carlos and gina chaotic siblings
give ej a hug 
“Sweet boy”
im so glad the guys are talking about their feelings.
Why a sleepover? It’s more of a hangout.
“Verging on failure”
jennzara therapy
slowwww burn
you go from hand holding to fist bump
disney please release an acoustic version of “let you go”
so it’s just carlos and ricky chillin’ at big red’s house?
do not play let you go for nini
do. not.
“You guys are a hallmark movie”
for once ricky is being smart
“the look on your face when you were talking about Seb tonight” smiles
he is so whipped
“I think you and Seb have something worth fighting for...bro”
that was so sweet and then there is bro
i love this show
“Sorry, I’m adjusting to being called bro” 
him and seb being awkward about feelings... that is a high school relationship
i love ricky in this scene
“Yeah, let’s just write”
ASHLYN CALLED BIG RED BABE AWWWWW
nina shut the actual hell up
“It’s in the costume shop, somewhere” mood
“Thank you, 15″ THEY SAID THE THING
GAHHHH
I LOVE IT
howie and kourtney oh my god what is happening
 “and begging”
“hi” he’s so nervous oh my lord.
he is so awkward around seb 
it’s like a switch
“Do you want to get risotto with me sometime” OH MY GOD THATS ADORABLE
GINA BABY HE LIKES YOU 
GINA HONEY!!!
AWWW THAT WAS ADORABLE
PORTWELL YESSSS
gina’s little run
“Am I in trouble?” 
they’re so nervous 
oh my god its time
“You keep it all bottled up” GUYS I CANT ARGGGG
can ricky just like, go behind a curtain?
“lookin’ for our kind of love” carlos basically just said “i love you”
seb is so whipped like look at him?
they’re so in love
seb’s little eye role at “in a heartbeat, i choose you”
the hands omfg
oh my god they’re going to dance
SHIZ THE HOMECOMING SUITS
I WAS RIGHT
OH MY GOD
SHIT GUYS IM DYING
gah the hands i cant
carlos is leading i love it
the tie
a tie just killed me
im combusting
You’re honor, they’re in love
i really thought carlos was going in for a kiss he is probably getting one later
i like how the dance isn’t big, it’s small and a little awkward bc right then it’s just them.
THEYRE SO IN LOVE HOLY SHIT
damnit big red
big red is legally required to interrupt almost kiss moments especially if it’s an lgbt kiss bc we cant have two in one season
in a heartbeat is so cute. Frankie showed UP this season with the vocals. there is no way that was all acting bc they looked so in love.
I...I love it
the lyrics are perfect
In a Heartbeat and Let You Go are probably the best OG songs of the season
“Siri, add In a Heartbeat to my gay sob playlist”
these boys are just serenading each other left and right 
“Yeah” 
so it’s just “yeah”!?!? That’s it!?!?! Seb could have least kissed him on the cheek or did they use all their kisses?
I love the song and love the scene, but there is so much more to discuss. Are we going to brush over the fact that Seb literally had an allergic reaction and didn’t get help because he didn’t want to disappoint Carlos!?!? Are we going to brush over “no, seb” and seb feeling like he has to get carlos big things!?! One “yeah” doesn’t erase all that. I’m hoping we get closure, proper closure, not a joke. 
In conclusion, only one thing was settled (Carlos loves Seb for Seb, not because he is the only out guy in school).
“Seb and Carlos suffer their first fight” effing liars
BTW it looks like they filmed the dance scene with the homecoming suits and normal outfits so disney release the footage
Ricky is the biggest Seblos shipper
“Bro”
you morons. are you using rigging without an adult there?!?!
im pretty sure that isn’t allowed. only trained people were allowed to use the rigging. it should be Natalie since she did it in HSM
you should have gotten mats are something or stand in a circle
gahhh
RICKY
OH MY FRICKING GOD
NO ONE RAN THEY JUST WATCHED WTF
WTF WAS THAT ENDING
UMMMMM NO
i legit have no words oh my god 
they just killed the lead
you guys saw the rope you should have ran 
you should have gotten mats or blankets or something just in case
rigging is difficult, set rigging and people rigging
EAST HIGH WTF
Looks like the sleepover is going to be in the ER
My gay heart is full but my theater heart is screaming. The episode went by really fast. I liked it, like a lot.
To answer the question, no, I am not okay @organic-guacamole and we will have a theater kid sleepover

Photographer : Henry Cavill Fake Instagram
Author’s note: Hi everyone. Hope you enjoy another fake instagram post. I really do enjoy making this so keep sending me requests, this one wasn’t a request but my own idea, I’m slowly working my way through some different careers so people can relate more to each one if they see their career being represented. Unfortunately, Tumblr on my phone keeps messing up, I usually like to include emojis here and there because to me it feels more real but it wouldn’t let me.
Anyway hope you enjoy - L

Tumblr media
celebrumourmagazine Famous Actor Henry Cavill and the photographer Y/n are now rumoured to be dating. The pair have had many photoshoots together and have a history of confusing fans with their comments on each others posts. But what is really tipping people off is a quote from Freya Allan, Cavill’s co-star in the Netflix show; The Witcher, where she said “I had such a nice time shooting today with @yourname_photography. Thank you to @henrycavill for making it happen, now I understand why you love her so much”. Allan then tried to cover her tracks by commenting on how y/n is one of Henry’s favourite photographers. Cavill too posted “I have always loved Y/ns work, she has such a keen eye for this stuff”. Seems fishy to me, wonder if we will get an explanatio soon. C’mon we deserve it.

henrycavill:
Tumblr media
henrycavill well the cats out of the bag... not the way we intended to tell you guys which is a shame. We are very sad that this is the way you all had to find out. With both of our jobs being very demanding (we love them nonetheless and are very grateful) we don’t often get to spend time with each other so wanted some time just to ourselves, we wanted to share this amazing relationship with all of our fans when were ready but unfortunately that opportunity was taken from us. We hope you can understand: you all are very important to the both of us and we truly did want to share this with you, but both got a bit too caught up with having each other to ourselves. These photos were taken by one of our mutual friends whilst we were on holiday and were leaked from our phones. I am so shocked that they even managed to do this but I will not let them get anymore attention than that.
To my love @yourname_photography: the last couple of months with you have been bliss, I found myself falling more in love with you everyday. Your dedication to your work is truly inspiring, how deeply you care for and love those around you is second to none, you have taught me so much about so many things but the main thing I will cherish is what you have taught me about myself; you have taught me to truly accept myself and have taught me to see myself the way you see me. I love you more than I can even begin to explain and I can’t wait for what’s to come. Having you to myself has been truly wonderful but sharing how amazing you are not only to me but all those around you is something I am going to enjoy. Everyone should know the amazing things you do not only in your photography career but in other aspects of your life <3

yourname_photography to my beloved Henry: the love you have shown me was one I didn’t believe in growing up, the kind of love I thought only excited in fairytales, books and movies. Boy oh boy was I wrong. The love you give is the kind of love everyone deserves, the kind where you give yourself to someone else fully without any selfishness or expectations. To most people you are Superman, Geralt, August Walker, Charles Brandon, Napoleon Solo and many others. But to me you are all those things and more. You are the guy that brings me my favourite soup when I’m sick, the guy that sits with me for hours trying to pick which photos from a shoot are the best, the guy that brings home lillies because you know they’re my favourite flower, the guy that sends me care packages when you are away, the guy that sends me goofy selfies of you and Kal, the guy that rubs my back and plays with my hair when I cant sleep, the guy that introduced me to my second family: the Cavill’s, the guy that works his god damn hardest everyday, the guy that puts in so much effort to raise awareness for endangered species and the fight that Durrell do, the guy that does so many amazing things yet expects nothing in return. You are the epic love of my life and I do not deserve you <3, you amazing, beautiful human, never change <3

James//even for me life had its gleams of sunshine
Request: This is a request I wanted to ask would you be up for writing Hc for dating James from teotfw thanks if you can 😘
hey! i hope you like this! its set after season 2 because i don’t think i’ve seen anything like it (why would i tbh) and i thought it would work better! i also loooooove writing hc, so when my requests open, send some more in! 
Tumblr media
- When you meet James, you already know who he is. 
- Its two years after the whole Bonnie thing 
- Him and Alyssa dated for a while, but broke up due to separate personal problems. 
- Both of them needed a change 
- And to move on
- But neither could do that with the other 
- So he moved. 
- He found a job and a flat and decided to try and start his life again
- Which is how he ended up meeting you 
- Its the first day of his new job
- And you’re training him
- Of course when you see him 
- You instantly recognize him 
- You remember seeing his and Alyssa’s face all over the news 
- So you’re only a lot little bit shocked when your boss says that this is who you’re going to be working with 
- The man that he’s replacing was a dick
- But at least he wasn’t wanted by police at some point in his life 
- I mean he could have 
- You never really got to know him
- He was weird and creepy so you just tried to avoid him as best you could
- But thats besides the point
- So, yeah
- You recognize James from the news 
- And the newspapers 
- As well as posters (even though they were no where near where you lived?)
- And every social media sight 
- Despite this however 
- You try and see beyond his past 
- You know, you try and look for the best in people 
- He’s incredibly glad of this
- And its the best thing you’ve ever done 
- You’re obviously a little bit wary of him at first 
- He may be cute but sometimes he gives off some weird vibes 
- But maybe thats just his awkwardness in social (and any) situations
- The more you get to know him
- The more you realize there’s more to him
- There was more to him than the picture they painted on the news 
- At first he’s a little shy
- And a lot awkward
- But the more he’s around you
- The more comfortable he feels sharing parts of him with you
- And the next thing he knows he’s falling for you
- And you’re falling for him 
- Cue seven months of...
- m u t u a l    p i n i n g
- The two of you sneaking countless of longing looks when the other isn’t paying attention
- And then scrambling to turn around when they look
- Both of you trying and failing to flirt 
- ‘i er, i like your shirt.’
- ‘thanks...i er. i like your face?’ 
- Tons of stupid jokes 
- And self depreciating one’s on both sides that sound funny in your heads but when said out loud, just makes the other person want to wrap them up in a hug
- You constantly hanging out together
- No matter if you’re at work
- Or at home 
- You rarely ever see one of you without the other far behind
- And maybe that has something to do with James’ separation anxiety 
- Everybody he has ever loved, has either died, or almost died 
- Or maybe because he feels found when he’s around you 
- And he’s gone through his whole life feeling lost. 
- You have movie days and game nights (he’s a sore loser) 
- Or if you both have a weekend off, you’ll go away somewhere 
- And have an adventure 
- They’re not crazy, or dangerous 
- He doesn’t have to be scared that something bad is going to happen to one, or both of you 
- He still has that anxiety, and he probably will have some of it for the rest of his life 
- But they’re still fun
- And they’re made even better because you’re there. 
- Once you both get really used to each other
- You spend nights talking about your past and you’re feelings 
- Usually they end in one, or both of you crying 
- But the other is always there to give the other a cuddle and tissue 
- He’s not really one for hugs and physical affection
- But when its you
- He really doesn’t mind 
- In fact, there’s not enough of it
- You spend that much time together that you have clothes at each other’s houses
- (and toothbrushes, blankets, favourite snacks, everything)
- The two of you have so many inside jokes 
- To the point where it annoys all of your co-workers 
- But that might be because you’re so obviously in love with each other but can’t seem to see it
-  One day 
- You’re both flirting 
- Well, trying to 
- It’s more stuttered compliments 
- And accidental innuendo’s that make you both blush
- They get so annoyed that they just kind of shout 
- ‘for the love of god, just get together already’ 
- And you both stop talking 
- And just stare at each other wide-eyed 
- ‘i er. do you erm. what?’ He stammers 
- ‘oh my god’ One of them throws their hands up before standing in front of you both 
- ‘james, do you like y/n?’ 
- ‘...yeah’ 
- ‘and y/n. do you like james?’ 
- ‘i, er. yes’ 
- ‘right. well i now pronounce you dating. so please go somewhere else and do all that lovey crap away from me.’ 
- You both look at each other
- Unsure of what to say 
- Before getting back to work 
- Both of you just trying to avoid each other 
- It works until you end up on a break together
- And then you can’t escape 
- So you have to actually talk about your feelings 
- Which you usually have no problem with... 
- When they’re linked to years worth of trauma 
- But these are happy feelings? 
- Well, more confusing than happy 
- But they could end happy 
- So what are you supposed to say?
- ‘do you actually like me?’ You ask 
- He’s been in a lot of scary situations
- But you asking that question is definitely in the top 5
- The last time he liked someone 
- He ended up on the run with them, after killing someone. 
- And then they were hunted down again
- After he was shot 
- Because of the whole killing thing 
- So its not exactly like he’s got a great track record 
- Plus, he really, really likes you 
- He doesn’t want to fuck you up
- He fucked Alyssa’s life up
- And he’s fucked his own life up
- But maybe
- Just maybe you’re what he needs
- He knows a relationship isn’t going to fix him
- Or the things he’s done 
- But maybe, its the start of something new 
- And something new is exactly why he moved here
- ‘i do.’ He nods
- You’ve never heard him sound so confident
- And a bright smile lights up your face 
- ‘i like you too.’ 
- And thats the beginning of the two of you
- You go on a first date 
- But he ends up being recognized in the restaurant 
- And some very un-kind words are said 
- So he has to pull you away from the man who told you to ‘be careful around him’
- You just go back to your place and watch a film
- And its perfect!
- The film sucks but thats not the point 
- Before he leaves 
- He asks if you’re sure you want to do this with him 
- Because ‘people are always going to be saying stuff like that about him’ 
- But you answer his question by kissing him
- And then he leaves quickly because he’s blushing really hard 
- And so are you 
- So as soon as he turns around, you slam the door shut 
- After a few months of dating 
- You move in together 
- You were practically already living together before you even got together 
- So it wasn’t that big of a step 
- Well it was for him 
- Because he’s living his life 
- And doing things he didn’t think he’d be able to do 4/5 years ago
- He’s in love with an amazing girl 
- And he’s living with her
- And most importantly he’s happy
- So, so happy
- For the first time in a long time 
- And he never wants to stop
- Because as long as your around 
- He knows he never will

Paring?: hongjoong x reader

A/N: Hey everyone, so i’m pretty nervous to post this, it’s been awhile since i last posted something. I’ve been struggling with some mental health situations which left me unmotivated and overall not myself. So i’m hoping that this turns out as good as i think it is. I write this for an Ateez Winter prompt, I thought why not start of the year with something wholesome? Anyways, I hope you guys enjoy this as much as i enjoyed writing it. <3 Breezy
Tumblr media
Winter was a beautiful season, the snow, the pretty Christmas decorations that seemed to be everywhere you looked. You wouldn’t say that you hated winter, seeing it was the best time of year for hot chocolate in front of a fire or curling up under warm blankets for a movie night in. Though for the love of all things, why did it have to be so cold?! 
The wind blew on your walk to class, after your car neglected to start due to the frigid temperatures, there was no other option but to bundle up and walk the small distance to your university. At least it wasn’t snowing but the dark clouds were telling a different story. What a wonderful day today was going to be. You decided that maybe a warm cup of hot coco would help your day get better, there was a small cafe right by the school that you had never had time to stop before but today seemed to be the day. The cafe was quiet, the soft sound of the radio kept it from being too quiet. At the register was a fairly tall man, dark hair that was pushed to the side so it wouldn't cover his eyes. His name tag read, 'San'. When he saw you he spoke cheerfully, greeting you with a warm smile.
"Good morning! What can I get for you?" He cheerfully asks causing you to cringe a bit. It was too early.
"Hi " you spoke softly, "can I get a medium hot chocolate?” you order now returning a smile. As you prepared to take out your wallet, he stops you.
“It's on the house," he says, "it seems like you need it." His smile never left his face. You honestly couldn't tell if it was fake or if he just loved his job that much.
"Hongjoong, one hot cocoa!" He shouts to his coworker who stood by the machines seemingly already working on it. From where you stood, Hongjoong was shorter than his co-worker, his hair a dark brown and, to be honest, looked soft. You couldn't see his face but you wished you could.
While you wait, San kept a light conversation going, seeing as he had no customers, not like you minded.
"Where are you heading off too?" He asked curiously.
"Well I'm heading to one of my classes at the university. Art history." You tell him honestly.
His eyes light up hearing that class, "Then you likely know Wooyoung!" he exclaims, “He's our roommate."
San motions towards Hongjoong. “Well one of our roommates, we share an apartment with a few friends." San glances in the direction of his coworker who was hard at work.
He spoke quietly, "do you think I could get your number?" You were surprised at how forward he was.
Your expression made him chuckle, "Not for me silly, Joong over there has been sneaking glances at you, and I've seen your eyes wander too," he teases, "he's just a little nervous to get out there." San explained quietly hoping his friend didn't hear the conversation. Typically you weren't one for giving your number out but you had to admit his friend was cute... 
"yeah, give me something to write it down" you say, your cheeks starting to feel warm. The male smiled widely before handing you a piece of receipt paper. You scribbled your number down quickly and handed it to the dark haired boy, who quickly took it and hid it before his friend came over with your drink. Your eyes finally met his, your heart nearly leapt out of your chest. 
His eyes were a dark brown, he was wore large rimmed glassed that only seemed to make him even more adorable if that was physically possible. His hair was parted in the middle, slightly showing off his forehead but it honestly framed his face wonderfully. Your train of thought was broken when you heard San speak up,
“We have to see you again! Now you better go before you’re late for class!” He exclaims which reminded you that, in fact, you had class to get to. 
“Thank you San, thank you Hongjoong.” You spoke quietly with a shy smile before leaving the cafe and heading down the street. Even with the unexpected stop, you were still making great time and were able to make it to class with five minutes to spare. 
“(Y/n)!” You heard the familiar hyper voice yell. You glanced up seeing Wooyoung waving excitedly in your direction. He always acted if you never saw each other. 
“Good morning Woo.” You say with a warm smile. You sat in the seat beside him, as you always did, and he was quick to notice the cup that you had sat down. 
“You stopped at a cafe?” He questioned curiously, he knew you hardly ever stopped. 
“Yeah, my car didn’t start this morning so I had to walk. I decided to stop to get something to warm me up a little.” You say with a chuckle. Your eyes scanned over the cup briefly only for you to now notices the small flower doodles and hearts on the part where they typically wrote the name for the order.
Wooyoung must have also noticed cause he gasped at it, “Awe!” Wooyoung was always so giddy when it come to you, especially if it had to do with you potentially dating. This man was absolutely invested in getting you into a relationship. 
“Did you get the name of the barista?” He questioned trying to get as much information as possible. 
You giggle at his question, “Yeah, I did.” You smile softly, “Also, I’m pretty sure San wanted me to say hi to you.” You say with a smirk. His eyes lit up like a Christmas tree. You had never seen him so happy about something in his life. 
“It was San?!” He nearly shrieked trying to keep his voice down. 
“No, it wasn’t San. Though he was really trying to set one of your friends up with me.” You looked down at your hands shyly. “His name was Hongjoong.” This time Wooyoung couldn’t hold back the squeal that escaped him. 
He prepared to speak but was cut off when the professor began to start speaking. You instantly went into, what you liked to call, note taking mode. This was one of your favorite classes and you found it the most interesting out of all of them, so of course you were going to pay attention. 
Midway through the class you felt Woo gently poke your side, carefully sliding a small note to you. What was this? Eighth grade? 
‘So Hongjoong? ;)’ Was written on the note, you knew telling him about his friends was likely a bad idea… 
‘What about him?’ You wrote back, carefully sliding the note back. You knew Wooyoung was trying to hold back his excitement. 
When the note slide back you weren’t surprised to see what he had written. ‘What do you think of him?” 
You rolled your eyes at this, ‘IDK, he seems nice? I didn’t really get a chance to talk with him.’ You quickly wrote before passing it back, now fully focusing on the professors lecture. Wooyoung must have seen that you wanted to focus, cause he never passed the note back. 
The class went by slowly, though you didn’t really mind. It almost made you forget crappy your day had started out. 
Once the professor dismissed everyone, Wooyoung was at your side talking again. 
“You should come to our Christmas party!” He suggested, “It’s just us, we watch movies and just have a good time. Maybe you can talk to my buddy Hongjoong a little.” He teased with a wink. 
You both exited the classroom, through the hallway windows you could see that snow had indeed begun to fall. 
You groan in discontentment. “Why did my car have to stop working today?” You mumble watching the snow fall from the sky. 
“You can’t walk home in this! You’re going to catch cold.” He says, “I bet one of the guys would bring you home!” He pulls out his cell phone, “San and Hongjoong should be getting out of work soon. They could come pick you up.” He says tapping away at his phone.
“I don’t want to inconvenience them, I’ll just take the bus.” You tell him, he shook his head. Continuing to type away on his phone. 
“Too late, San already agreed. He said him and Hongjoong would pick you up outside the main building in 15 minutes.” Wooyoung giggled, a cute smile on his face.  
“Fine and I’ll think about your offer for the Christmas party.” The both of you hug before parting ways. 
Your walk to the main building was pretty quiet, most students were in their classes only a few stragglers wandered around. Likely, they too, were done with classes or meeting with professors before their final deadlines come up. To be honest, you hadn't thought much about them. 
You glanced out the front door, not daring to go outside unless you needed to. A few cars sat idling in the parking lot, Wooyoung neglected to tell you what type of car they drove. You stood there for a bit, in your back pocket your phone buzzed. A new text message.
You opened it, no name had come up so whoever it was you didn't have their number.
"this is San! " the text started with, "this is Hongjoongs phone so you should save his number." he had said, adding a winky face at the end. "Anyways, we are outside the silver Toyota." you glance out and the car seemed to pull up. Perfect timing you thought to yourself. You held your jacket close as you walked out into the cold, the snow seemed to be falling even more then before. You sped walked to the car, opening the backseat door, you were oddly surprised at how clean it was.
"hey (y/n)!" San enthusiastically says from the passenger seat. Hongjoong also greeted you but in a much quieter fashion.
"hi, I really appreciate you giving me a ride. I probably would have frozen solid if I had to walk." you say with a small laugh.
"I don't mind," Hongjoong spoke softly as he began to pull out of the parking lot. You told him your address and he headed in that direction. San made sure to keep the conversation going, he reminded you so much of Woo.
"How long have you known Wooyoung?" You curiously ask the two males.
"Well, Woo and I went to high school together. then we met this one when we moved in for university." San spoke happily, it was honestly kind of sweet.
 Hongjoong nodded in agreement, "If I would have known you two were so crazy I wouldn't have moved in." He teased with a smirk planted on his face. San gasped trying his best to act offended. This made you giggle, these two were insane, but you loved it.
The drive to your apartment was filled with stories and jokes. Maybe taking Wooyoungs offer would be fun. You thanked them both before exiting the car and heading to your apartment. You took off your coat and shoes before further entering your apartment. Your phone began to vibrate in your back pocket as you headed towards your room.
 The caller ID read, Wooyoung.
You answer. " yes Woo?" you asked enter your room and sitting at your desk.
"how was your ride?" he questioned in a teasing manner. 
You rolled your eyes,"it was great. San told me a lot of stories." you tease back.
Wooyoung was quiet for a few moments. "Nothing new," he calmly says, " Have you thought about the party?" 
" yeah, I've thought about it" you begin.' I think it could be fun... " you nearly dropped your phone at the sound of Woo young's shriek. This man was to excitable..
"the party is next weekend , well, we usually start Friday night but you can come by on Saturday, "he says cheerfully.
"I'll come by on Friday, I'll just crash on your couch or something." you weren't opposed to sleeping on the couch or floor.
"Or maybe you can share a bed with Hongjoong." you could practically hear him smirking but his comment made you blush none the less.
"Shut up Woo, don't make me regret this." 
He chuckled, "I promise you wont, I gotta go I'll see you in class tomorrow." The overly excited man hung up the phone leaving you in silence.
"That guys gonna be the death of me." you mumble to yourself before standing and continuing to do your afternoon routine.
The week passed by in a blur. Other than your work, the party was always on your mind. You weren't typically one for parties but maybe this could be fun.
Woo told you that you would go to his place after your class, his roomie Jongho was going to bring you..
"Are you excited for tonight? " Wooyoung questions as the two of you exited the lecture hall. Even after an exhausting class, he still somehow managed to have so much energy.
"Yes, I'm excited. I’ve never honestly been to any kind of party like this before.” You admit with a small sigh. Wooyoung let out a giggle, he gently grabbed you and continued to walk with you down the corridor. 
“Well then this will be even more fun!” He exclaims, “You’ll love everyone, we can be a little crazy but I think you’ll get along with them. If you don’t, well I’m sure Hongjoong would bring you up to his room where it’s quiet.” He teased as he gently nudged your side. You smiled at his teasing tone but didn’t say anything else. You knew Woo was planning something, you just weren’t sure what it was he was planning. 
As he had said, Jongho was waiting for the both of you in his car. Another figure in the car in the passenger seat. 
“Hey Jongho! Yunho!” Wooyoung exclaims as he gets into the car, you followed suit. “Guys this is (Y/n)! They’re in my art history class.” He says to his friends. The one driving, who you assumed was Jongho gave you a hello, while the other one gave you the brightest smile. 
“Hey there! I’m Yunho!” His energy almost matched Wooyoung’s which honestly kind of scared you but not in a bad way. You giggle at his enthusiasm but didn’t say anything in return. You let the two goofy friends chat about the plans for tonight, while you and Jongho sat in silence listening to them. 
“We have to make one stop before we go back to the apartment.” Jongho says as he pulled into the parking lot of a small store. 
He parked the car, “I’ll be right back.” He says as he exits the car and rushing into the store, likely so his friends wouldn’t do something stupid in his car. You honestly believed that these two would be capable of doing something stupid like that.
The two continued to joke, as if Jongho hadn’t left the car. 
“Come on (Y/n)! Tell him what happened at the cafe.” Wooyoung whined as he playfully nudged you. 
“Wait the cafe where we work?” Yunho questions with the biggest grin on his face. Wooyoung nods his head excitedly. 
“Come on Woo, don’t make me tell him.” You beg looking at your friend who had the biggest shit eating grin. 
“If you don’t, I will.” He teases hoping that his words might honestly push you to tell the story. When you kept your mouth shut he took that as his cue that he would be telling it for you. 
“San was trying to set her up with Hongjoong.” This news made Yunho giggle happily. Did all of his friends really want to set you up with Hongjoong? They hardly knew you. 
Before the story continued, the drivers side door opened and Jongho sat down into his seat. He handed the bag to Yunho who was still giggling like crazy. You would have figured Jongho would have questioned but he just silently began to drive again. This was going to be an interesting night…
You had been at their apartment for about an hour and honestly you were sure that this was just pure chaos. It had started with the nine of you but eventually nine turned to ten and ten turned into eighteen. Someone, who you honestly assumed was San, had invited Changbin, who in turn invited his eight rowdy friends. Put the two groups of friends together to have a purely chaotic party. 
Currently you were all listening to upbeat Christmas music, dancing together like it honestly didn’t matter. Most of you were drinking, leaving poor Jeongin and Jongho out seeing as though they were technically underage but it honestly seemed like they weren’t interested in the booze since you knew if they wanted to drink they could have just asked. 
You weren’t much of a drinker but tonight, you decided to let loose a little, drinking enough just to make your head spin a little. 
A cup in hand you danced and sung along with Han and Wooyoung to the upbeat music, you were all sharing giggles having just a good time. All you wanted to do is dance. Wooyoung continued to glance at Han, you believed they were being sneaky but you could easily see through them. What were they planning?
The more you danced with them, the closer they seemed to get to you, not like you minded. Though Woo was your best friend, you found him attractive anyone with eyes would agree and Han was just as good looking as him. Though you were sure, Woo knew his limits and would make sure nothing happened to you. 
You heard a laugh beside you as you and Wooyoung shouted along to the Christmas song that played. You looked over to see Yeosang and Hyunjin, who seemed really entertained by the show that was being put on. 
“What?!” You shout to them over the loud music, “The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear!” You shout to them only causing them to laugh. 
“Come on Yeosang! Hyunjin! Join us!” You say to them holding out your arm. They only laughed again before walking in the opposite direction. You look at Wooyoung and pout but continued dancing none the less. 
Wooyoung leaned closer, whispering in your ear, “Guess who won’t stop looking at you.” He whispered in a singsong voice. You glanced over your shoulder and sure enough Hongjoong was glancing at you from across the room as he seemed to be in a conversation with Seonghwa and Chris. His averted his gaze back to the two he was talking with. 
“What are you planning Woo?” You question glancing back at your friend who seemed to have a mischievous glint in his eye. 
“Don’t worry too much, me and Han are going to help you.” You wanted to question what he meant but both Woo and Han took your arm leading you to the empty couch to sit. Once you sat down, the music was turned down and everyone seemed to gather around sitting in the empty chairs and the floor. You felt Han place his arm over your shoulder casually, you knew he meant nothing by it. 
“Usually around now we would watch some cheesy Christmas movies, but it seems we have more guests than usual.” San chuckled knowing that this was his doing. The room erupted in chatter about how they really wanted to watch movies. 
“Put on a movie!” Felix shouted from his seat on the floor. The rest of the room agreed. 
San rolled his eyes, “Fine! We watch the same movies every year so thats what we will watch.” Everyone in the room cheered excitedly as Yeosang turned the TV on preparing it for their movie marathon. Wooyoung got up from his seat, leaving you and Han alone on the couch. You suspected this was part of the plan. 
Han leaned closer to you, “Play along, but let me know if you’re uncomfortable.” He whispered in your ear. You honestly thought that while he was enacting this plan with Wooyoung, that he wanted you to be comfortable above all. You nod slightly and lean back against the couch, his arm was still casually thrown over your shoulder though he made sure to sit a bit closer to you. It was at that moment, you knew exactly what they were doing. They were trying to make Hongjoong jealous enough to make a move. You laid your head on Han’s shoulder, playing along with their idea to set you up. You continued to sip at your drink as someone turned off the lights and started the movie. The seat beside you stayed vacant for some time until Wooyoung returned, it was clear though that he didn’t want to take this seat. 
The movie went on, you were likely halfway through the movie when you felt a sickening feeling in your stomach. 
“Woo where’s your bathroom?” You asked quietly not to disturb anyone else. 
He glanced at you, “Down that hallway, the last door on the left. Are you okay?” He questioned, concern in his soft voice. 
“Yeah, I-I just don’t feel too good.” You say honestly before standing from your seat, carefully stepping over everyone on the floor and speed walking down the hallway. You threw the bathroom door open, closing it gently before rushing towards the toilet. Falling to the floor you threw up into the toilet, a few stray tears fell down your cheeks just from the burning in your throat. 
There was a knock on the bathroom door, “(Y/n)?” A voice you weren’t expecting to hear called, you went to answer but instead vomiting again. Through your dry heaves you heard the door slowly open and close gently. There were no words spoken as Hongjoong walked behind you and held you hair away from your face. It was a sweet gesture that would have made your heart skip a beat if you weren’t sitting here vomiting. You felt his other hand gently rub your back in hopes to maybe sooth you. 
When you were sure that the contents of your stomach was empty you sat back against your heels. 
“I-I’m sorry you had to see me like this Hongjoong.” You whisper softly, your throat sore from throwing up. There was long period of silence but it wasn’t an uncomfortable one. 
“Don’t be sorry, it happens.” He speaks softly, his voice calm and soothing. “Let me go get you some water and some mouth wash.” He chuckled softly before quietly leaving the room. 
You stood yourself up, supporting yourself against the counter as your felt light headed. You looked at yourself in the mirror, cheeks flushed from the tears that had fallen from your eyes. You looked like a disheveled mess. 
The bathroom door carefully opened again, Hongjoong entered with a cup of water and what you assumed was a bottle of mouthwash. He carefully handed you the cup, with shaky hands your first sip was to hopefully rinse this awful taste out of your mouth. The rest you carefully drank in hopes to sooth your hurting throat. 
“I’ll leave you to clean yourself up…” Hongjoong trailed as he turned to leave. 
“W-Wait, Hongjoong,” you began, “Will you wait for me outside the door? I’m feeling a bit dizzy.” You tell him.
He glanced back at you, a cute smile on his face. “Of course.” He left the room closing the door behind him. 
You took a few minutes to clean yourself up and be slightly more presentable before you slowly exiting the bathroom. As you had asked, Hongjoong waited for you. He offered you his arm, which you happily accepted. 
“C-Can I sit with you?” You quietly ask as you walked down the hallway together. 
He was quiet, “You don’t want to sit with Wooyoung and Han?” 
You giggled, did the plan actually work. “Why? Are you jealous?” You tease, a noticeable blush appearing on his cheeks. That gave you your answer. He didn’t particularly answer your question but when you got to the living room he brought you to his spot on the floor. You must have been gone for some time cause another movie had begun. Before you knew it, you were snuggling into his side, your eyes becoming heavy as you drifted to sleep. 
When you woke up you were in a completely different room, one you didn’t recognize. You tried to remember what had happened before you fell asleep, you remembered the movie and throwing up in front of Hongjoong. He was likely the reason you were in this bed. A soft snore snapped you from your thoughts, you carefully looked over your shoulder as saw Hongjoong. He was laying on his back, hair disheveled but it was cute. You carefully turn to face him, gently you place your head on his chest cuddling into him. His arm moved, wrapping itself around you holding you close. This felt so right… 
Hongjoong shifted underneath you, you glanced up to his face watching as his eyes flutter open. A blush appeared on his cheeks as he locked eyes with you. 
“Good morning.” You mumble softly a blush also appearing on your cheeks. Your heart was beating a mile a minute as you looked into each other eyes. A mental argument went on inside your head, should you make a move? Or just gaze into his eyes? You had a feeling that he was thinking the same thing. You sat there for what seemed like hours until his hand gently touched your cheek. His thumb gently rubbing against your cheek, the gesture was sweet but it was more than that… You shifted upwards, the both of your lips barely touching. 
“C-Can I kiss you?” He mumbles softly, his eyes never leaving yours. You didn’t answer, instead you leaned up and connected your lips together softly. Neither of you moved until Hongjoong deepened the kiss. His hand gently caressed your cheek as you shared this soft kiss. You pulled away slowly, your eyes locking once again. He sat up, his back now leaning against the headboard pulling you up with him as he once again locked lips with you. The hand on your cheek now rested on the back of your neck deepening the kiss. 
A loud crash caused the both of you to pull away. 
“What was that?” You question. 
Hongjoong sighed softly, “It’s more like who and I know exactly who it is.” He mumbled as he stayed close to you. 
“Sh-Should we go check on them?” You ask not particularly wanting to move from the position you were in. You squealed as he pulled you onto his lap to straddle his hips, his hands rested on your waist and yours wrapped gently around his neck. Your forehead again rested against his, your lips gently brushing against his again. You two would have likely kissed again if Hongjoongs bedroom door didn’t swing open causing the both of you to jump. Wooyoung stood there, the biggest shit eating grin ever imaginable on his face. 
“Wooyoung, get out.” You tell your friend, a threatening look in your eye that clearly sent a message to him cause he quickly shut the door and left you alone.
“That man really knows how to ruin a moment.” You say with a giggle as you looked at a flustered Hongjoong. “I think we should go check on them…” He gave you a nod, gently pecking your lips before you got up from the bed. 
You grabbed his hand gently as you both left his room, fully prepared to be teased by all of his friends. Which you were, though mostly it was his roommates being happy to see him with someone. The other nine boys, who must have crashed in the living room, joined them in being excited. Though Han was with you, saying that he was happy to see the two of you together. It was honestly kinda sweet seeing everyone so happy. 
The rest of the morning was spent eating a sweet breakfast that Wooyoung and Seonghwa made together, apparently this too was a tradition. You all sat around the living room, telling stories, laughing and genuinely enjoying the company of others. You were lucky enough to secure a spot on the couch next to Hongjoong, while San sat on the other side of you. It was nice to be able to cuddle into his side even if you were surrounded by everyone. 
Eventually the conversation seemed to shift into one that you never would have thought, it almost seemed cliche. A game of truth or dare amongst eighteen people. Well this was going to be fun.
They were harmless dares, like asking them to do silly things or things like that. It was honestly just fun amongst friends. Well, till it got to Hongjoong’s turn. 
“Alright Hongjoong, truth or dare?” Felix asked the elder who shifted in his seat. 
“Uh, dare?” He said as more of a question then answering the question. That made you giggle. 
“Well then, we all dare you to give your new girlfriend a big ol’kiss.” Some people in the room whooped and made sounds causing you to blush. He seemed hesitant unsure if you wanted to do this, his gaze locked with yours almost asking you for permission. 
You let out the smallest giggle, “Come and kiss me baby,” you say softly for only him to hear, “we don’t need no mistletoe.” You say in a teasing manner causing him to chuckle as well before leaning in and kisses you sweetly. The room erupted in cheers causing a blush to appear on your cheeks. It was a short but sweet kiss, you were sure neither of you wanted to pull away and likely you wouldn’t have if you weren’t surrounded by friends. 
The game continued on, picking fun at each other and having a good laugh. Before you knew it, everyone was getting ready to leave. Everyone said their goodbyes, Han made sure that he had contact with you cause you were pretty sure you had just made a new best friend. Once the nine boys left, you and the others continued to lounge in the living room. 
“(Y/N)!” Wooyoung shouted from the kitchen,
“What!?” You shout in return from the comfort of the couch as you laid across it with your head on Hongjoong’s lap. 
“Come help me!” You groan at his request before getting up and heading towards the kitchen. The biggest mess you had ever seen, Wooyoung was trying to bake… 
“Wooyoung, what in the world…” you begin, “Are you trying to make pie?” 
The happy boy smiled and nodded, “Yes I wanted apple pie.” He said. 
“We could have gone to the store.” 
He shook his head, “That’s no fun! Now help me, I know you know how to make apple pie.” He said. You rolled your eyes, and join him. 
“We are gonna need a few more hands, or this will take forever.” You tell Wooyoung, his eyes lit up as he rushed to the living room and came back with San and Hongjoong. 
You spent the rest of the afternoon baking with the chaos twins and Hongjoong. It was the most fun baking you had ever had. Once you put the pie in the oven, you set the timer and headed towards the living room. 
A hand grabbed yours, pulling you back, your back came in contact with a firm chest, his firm chest. His arms wrapped around you as he held you close and kissed your head. 
“I’m going to take you out tomorrow.” He says with a smile, “Where ever you want to go, I’ll take you.” He declares as he holds you close. 
“How about a coffee shop.” You say with a smirk causing him to chuckle. 
“Was their teasing not enough?” He questioned. 
You shook your head, “No.” You giggle, you glance up at him, there was a wide smile on his face. 
This was the man of your dreams, he was everything. Maybe he was your Christmas miracle.

Thoughts on the Snyder Cut of Justice League
Watched the Snyder Cut a few days ago, here are my thoughts. SPOLIERS AHEAD:
1) Characters are presented WAY better. Batman is less goofy, Wonder Woman has more kick ass scenes, as does Aquaman. Snyder REALLY got Mera right, woman straight up nearly gave Steppenwolf an aneurism which I applaud Snyder for showing because it shows how much of a BOSS Mera is. Cyborg has an actual story arc which is great. Flash is still quite awkward but he has a good heart so once you get used to his awkwardness he’s pretty good
2) All the footage is original Snyder film plus reshoots he done. You can tell which is reshoots depending on quality of CGI and Green Screen. Martian Manhunter was very obviously one of these editions, which I’ll get to later. Most of Whedon’s scenes are gone, which is good for the most part cause outside of the ethical issues that taints those films with Whedon’s behaviour on set, they just straight up conflict with the tone. So less quippy jokes and weird creepy scenes (like the one where Martha was talking how Clark referred to Lois as “the thirstiest girl he’s ever known” like...have you met Clark Kent? What on gods green earth would make you think he would say ANYTHING like that let alone to his MOTHER??? Also that weird scene where Flash was lying on top of Wonder Woman, cause Whedon is weird) however there was one scene (with Bruce and Diana touching the mouse at the same time) which felt quite Whedony. One scene I would have liked to see that would have gotten kept in was Batman’s whole “save one person” speech to Flash. Think that solidified Batman as a veteran hero and makes him look like a person who actually wants to help people rather than punch people, which a lot of batman writers tend to forget to mark on. Without that, nobody gives Flash any guidance in this film and I was disappointed in that
3) Cyborg was great. His powers are clearly and well defined, honestly the way Zac presented his abilities made this dude look super scary. But he has a good heart and Ray Fisher CRUSHES IT. Honestly when Victor teared up in the car with his mum, I was sold. Like this big charismatic quarterback being brought to tears...you just don’t see that in a lot of films, with men typically being presented so stoic and tough. I’m glad we got to see that. Fisher is a fantastic actor and I’m happy he got way more scenes in this movie. Hope to see his Cyborg show up again some day
4) Movie looks stunning. Snyder really has a great visual style. Like the whole scene where Vic is playing football is just gorgeous. Also the Flash’s powers look really cool, love his running scenes
5) I don’t think Martian Manhunter should have been in the movie. Narratively doesn’t really fit and it creates some serious plot issues within the universe. Questions like “why didn’t he do anything in MoS?” Or “why didn’t he do anything in BvS?” having him in this movie kind of feels off. Like how he imitated Martha to give Lois a pep talk, like thats a very serious moment for Lois- do you not think she’s going to bring that up with the real Martha??? Also, the ending with Martian Manhunter was just so weird. Like just showing up to say “Good job, Bruce. Oh, here’s my superhero name. Call me!” felt quite fan servicey and the CGI for him looked bad imo. Think in future should try full body makeup if they wanna do Manhunter in the future
6) I don’t think the Cut had to be four hours, there was just a lot of pretty shows, a lot of slow motion (seriously, like way too much slow motion. Reminds me of that bit from Garth Mangenari’s Darkplace where they talk about how because episodes were 8 minutes shorter than they should have been they just made everything non dialogue slow motion to drag out the time) and a lot of information is repeated. Think with a good editor this could be cut down to three hours, which I think would make a more concise and better film
7) Villain’s are more compelling. Steppenwolf is more interesting, we actually get to see some Darkseid and I think Snyder does a great job at showing the threat level they pose. Also actually gives a reason why Darkseid is interested in conquering earth, which is pretty neat. All in all the lore in the movie is pretty tight
8) I don’t buy how Superman will turn evil. Like you’re telling me this good little farmer’s boy loses his fiancee and then decides to nuke the world? Nah, I don’t buy it. I would however have bought it if the resurrected Superman showed some emotional development complications. Which I initially thought they were going for as Clark had issues remembering who he was, but after five minutes he was back to normal so crisis averted. Shame cause I think that would have been interesting, see a Clark Kent who on paper is the same guy but now he has no empathy. Would have been really tragic and would have shown the price of ressurection
9) I would have liked an explanation in the movie as to why Superman had a black suit. I know Snyder has said in interviews about how the suit is a call back to his homeworld, because at the time of its destruction everyone was basically dressed in black. However there’s no explanation as to why t is this case in the movie. In the comics, Superman had to wear the black suit because it was part of the ressurection procedure. Not so much in the movie, another case of fan service that didn’t make much sense
10) Epilogue stuff was interesting. At that point in the end I felt like Zac was just pitching movies. We get Ben Affleck’s Batman movie with Deathstroke. We get this super weird apocalypse movie with a rag tag justice league which I would honestly love to see. Also throughout the movie you get a lot of set up for the Flash’s movie, referencing the time stuff so I think that if the Flash movie ever gets out of development hell it’ll be Flashpoint. A lot of it did feel a tad fan servicey. Snyder said he put the joker in there at the end cause Ben and Jared never played off one another, seeing them on screen together I think Jared is definitely the perfect Joker for Affleck’s Batman. Think he could dial it down a little- like don’t be sending used condoms or rats to you co-stars please and then years later denying you ever did that shit
All in all, the movie was too long but I found myself enjoying it quite a lot. Fare better than the Frankenstein movie Whedon and WB cut together four years ago. I really don’t think they should have rushed into Death of Superman story so quick, or try to rush into a shared universe quite like in BvS either. That said if you don’t like Snyder’s style, you’ll probably not like the film. I personally like his style and I really enjoyed it, though I can admit it is a bit flawed.
Its actually quite remarkable that this movie got made in the first place. I think if it wasn’t for the massive fan pushback and the fact that a worldwide pandemic occurred, this movie would have still been a pipe dream. I don’t think we’re getting any of the movies pitched in Snyder’s epilogue. 
Like this movie going to streaming is not going to break even the $70 million dollars pumped into it and the audience that wanted this movie in the first place is too small to justify making more movies like this. There’s also the fact that WB put little to no money in marketing for the movie, so they’re trying to bury it for whatever reason. Like most people had no idea this movie was happening, but they know about all the Star Wars and the Marvel Shows. That’s bad marketing and you can’t help but feel its deliberate
In conclusion, I really liked the movie. I thought Zack did a great job under the circumstances and I’m glad he got to finish it. I know he had to step back because of a family tragedy so I’m really happy he got to finish his movie

seeing u post about choices made me realize how long it’s been since I played anything on there! So what books and series would you recommend and why?
Hhuhuhuhuhu  i am glad you asked. To be quite honest with you while there is a god tier book going on, choices is....getting worst on some new books. But the good news is that they make great diamond mines (especially since you can have 3 diamonds by chapter instead of 1 by chapter now)
putting the rest under read cos i got too excited and its a long post sorry zeiofarog
Okay so, the first and most recent book that i will recommend you is Blades of Light and Shadows. This book seriously, is so so fucking good, every chapter is quality and the world is awesome. It’s a fantasy world (orcs, elfs, humans, magical creature darkness etc..) where you can choose what races your Character is and what skills they can have at first, like arc,sword, deception, seduction, friends to beast, etc. The best is that you can get more skills as you gain xp. The lore, the world, and by god the LIs, they’re all just perfect. It’s the kind of gang/founded family trope everyone wants, its beautiful and they all have great interactions between each other and complement each other so well.
I’m gonna stop cos i’m just gonna ramble about this book at this point, but seriously if there’s one book where its worth it to spend all your diamonds on, it’s absolutely Blades.
Now I don’t know how long its been since you have played choices so I’ll recommend every “recent” book i consider great in this app :
- Distant Shores : I’m not really sure to be fair, I have barely played the book (cos im more focus on blades and im keeping diamonds for it), but its a pirate story and you can have gay pirate romance. The big well, bad point i would say, is that the MC come from “the modern world” aka our time, and idk a lot of people agreed it would have been more interesting/less cliche if done differently. But so far so good i think
-The Elementalist : Man that book, its like......I guess the best to describe it is that it’s like a mix between Harry Potter and Twitches (and if you haven’t watched Twitches you definitely should, its a very fun movie with witches). Full of magic and magic schools stuff and elements. Unfortunatly its far from perfect cos you have SOME love interest that are VERY prioritized over others 😒😒😒 (read Beckett), but its still sweet, funny, with lovable characters and fuckin Shreya that kinda reminded me of Weiss on some part so you can guess why she’s my favorite oiezajzfazf
-Endless Summer : It’s...well, It’s very complicated to be honest, and as someone who barely had any diamonds when it was on going, its hard to understand some of the things happening in the plot if you dont pay up. But the story is really, the characters are touching, the main character too! It’s a good mystery...fanstastic...sci-fi (?) book. There’s four LI’s and i have to say that one of the reason i love this book is for one of them (aka Estela). Endless Summer is a great book, even if frustrating when you don’t have diamonds.
-The Heist : Monaco. Do you want to build a crew of thief to organize cool heists, while also getting chased by a hot af woman ? I mean there’s more to that book to be quite honest but Sonia’s yearning after the MC and handcuffing her is all I remember zoiejfezoijgrzaf.
-Veil of Secrets : Getting invited to your best friend wedding, you ends up caught in a murder mystery and well, a whole lot of mysteries to be honest. It’s a pretty good mystery book, and you can sweep in and get with your best friend in the end which is pretty sweet to me uwu.
- Hero : Uuugh this one, I loved this book a whole lot, like a lot. It’s the classic “accident happen, weird magic aliens rayons happen and bam superpowers and super heroes” but that’s pretty much the only book like that. Also Eva, the only woman love interest, who has a Catwoman/Batman relationship wth the main character, its lot of sexual tension and thats great.
Annnd...thats the few ones i can think of, I know some books here and there that i liked but wouldn’t recommend cos objectively they’re not very good oezjaoijrg. Also other books ive seen recommended are Open Heart or Mother of the Year that are pretty popular but I personally haven’t played them and idk im not a fan of the concept of these books but you should still give it a try if you’re curious.

prague...dedicated to becky
PRAGUE
Chapter 1
"we could run..........you and me. we could go now and never look back"
"are you serious???"
"i have money saved up josh. i could get us new identities. create a escape route. for now just keep up appearances.........,go to berlin like were gonna shoot. well leave to go to prague from there"
"what are you saying jen?????"
"im saying i wanna be a real person again........with you. thats what you want right???? i mean this is it josh. will you run away with me????"
-XX-
"aaaaaand action!!!!" yelled francis lawrence.
any other time this would have been joshs idea of heaven. working with his friend all day. but now.... it was just really awkward and he couldnt wait until the wrap.
josh started to mumble his lines but was cut off by jen.
"im really sorry francis but........i cant do this right now......." she said and then walked off to her trailer.
it had been like this ever sense....ever sense prague.......
-XX-
josh walked up to the train platform trying to find jen. suddenly he saw her standing with a suitcase and wearing a red jacket with cute black heels on. she spotted him and immediately smiled at him. he walked over to her.
"hey!!!!! i was starting to think you werent coming!!!" she said.
josh looked down at his shoes. jen didnt notice or care. jen pulled a folder out of her purse.
"k so here are our new identities. for now on your name is thomas campbell and mine is elle sinclair. we can talk about there back stories or whatever on the train ride to prague" she said.
"jen........." josh said.
"oh dont worry about the ride......... its only a hour long and if your bored you have me to talk to" she said.
"jen i.......i dont think we should do this........."
jen looked kinda confused.
"what do you mean?????"
"i mean we..... we made a promise that we would make these movies. we have a responsibility to the fans and everyone in the movie to finish it.... this is our life jen. this fairytale about running away is nice but this is where we belong. in hollywood. living our real lives....."
"josh its not that simple....... you dont understand but everything here is fake.....but this" she said and grabbed josh's hand. ".....this is simple. this is our real life. we have to go josh...... are you coming????? please come with me josh....."
josh paused and let go of jen's hand.
"i cant......im sorry........"
-XX-
josh walked up to jen's trailer and knocked.
"jen its me.....please let me in........"
"josh no. i dont want to talk to you now"
josh could tell she was crying.
"jen......."
"go away!!!!!"
josh leaned against the door and felt a single tear on his cheek.
"ok" he whispered.
Chapter 2
things were awkward on set. jen was avoiding josh and it was making him feel awful and lonely. he was always talking and laughing with her and now that he wasnt he felt empty and hurt. he hated being alone because then your forced into listening to your own thoughts instead of someone elses voice. god he couldnt wait for this to end.
but.......but what if this awkwardness never ended?? what if jen never forgave him???
he stared at the script in his hands. he was trying to memorize his lines because he had to and to distract himself from the situation with jen. it wasnt really working. he looked out the window of his trailer and saw jen in her own trailer looking straight at him. but when she saw that he saw her she looked away.
josh threw the papers on the ground frustratedly. he needed to talk to jen. even if she didnt want to talk to him. fuck, hed tie her up and force her to listen if thats what it took.
he walked out the door and to jen's trailer. he knocked and waited for her to answer nervous that she wouldnt. but she did. thank GOD thought josh.
"hey" jen said not looking at him. she was wearing a pretty white dress that would probably blow in the wind if it was windy. it reminded josh of the first time he saw jen.
-XX-
he put some cologne on his wrists and pulled on the jacket he was wearing. then he looked in the mirror and fixed his hair. he felt like a girl but he wanted to look perfect before meeting his co-star jennifer lawrence. they talked on the phone a few days ago and he has instantly fell in love with her. she was so funny and comfortable with who she was. and josh knew she was gorgeous. he saw her at the oscars when she was nominated for winters bone. she was irresistible to josh even though he didnt meet her in person yet. but that was going to change in a few minutes if josh didnt die from his heart beating so fast that it fell out of his chest.
he looked at his watch and took a deep breath. if he didnt leave now he was gonna be late.
he left his house and got into his car and drove to jen's house. when he got there he couldnt help but laugh at the garden nomes in the yard of her house. they were cute just like her.
josh wiped his sweaty hands in his pants and rang the door bell. jen answered.
joshs mouth went dry when he saw her. even though she was wearing a super simple white dress she was still breathtaking stunning. her eyes were the bluest blue josh had ever seen. her lips were full. her cheeks were pink like she ran to the door or something, and she had a cute button nose. jen smiles and you could see her dimples.
"well what are you waiting for silly!!!!! come in the damn house its frickin cold outside hahah" she said.
josh did as was told and went Ito her house. suddenly he stopped and just looked at her. he didnt think it was possible to be more attracted to this girl but that was before he saw her in person. it was love at first sight for him.
oh god josh thought im inlove with a girl and i dont even know her full name.....
"uh.....jen???"
"thats mizz lawrence to you" she joked.
he laughed. "k so this is kinda super weird but i was wondering........ can you tell me your middle name????"
she looked at him silently for a few seconds before saying something. "shrader. my middle name is shrader" she said.
"jennifer shrader lawrence" josh said. and it was the most beautiul name hed ever heard.
-XX-
"hey......can i come in????" josh asked. jen nodded her head "yes" so josh went in.
"look josh about the other day........"
"its ok jen. really its fine like dont worry about it" josh said.
"i just really miss you so much. what happened in prague......im so sorry jennifer for hurting you. i didnt mean to hurt you. and i want us to go back to the way things were. please????? i dont wanna loose you.......... i love you"
"josh.........."
josh cut her off as he leaned forward and kissed her. to his disappointment though, she pulled away after a few seconds.
"josh..........we need to break up."
Chapter 3
"josh..........we need to break up."
out of all the things josh thought jen would say that did not even make the list. he expected that theyd need to talk some things out but.........
"....i....jen what?"
"josh its.....please dont look at me like that....i just think that were not the same people we were when we first fell in love.....i dont want to ruin our friendship"
she was right about one thing. they werent the same people they were when they first fell in love. the old jen would never do something like this to him.
-XX-
"oh you can do better than that!!!" jen yelled at josh as she flew through the air. josh laughed and pushed her back harder. his arms were getting kinda sore. who knew that pushing someone on a swing could be so much work??
"jen my arms are tired." he complained. "im gonna take a break"
"your WEAK JOSH HUTCHERSON. YOUR FUCKING WEAK!!!"
"well not all of us can be nicholas fucking hoult jen. maybe you should call him so that he can come push you" he said. but right after he said it he wished he didnt. it wasnt fair to jen. she didnt know how much it hurt him to see her with nick. and even if she did he didnt have a right to be mad. it wasnt her fault that she loved nick and not him.
"look jen im sorry" he shouted up to her. she ignored him.
he stepped back away from the swing and sat down. he watched her for a little while until suddenly jen let go of the swing and literally went flying through the air. he knew she did it on purpose because she was laughing like an idiot the whole way until she hit the mulch. but even then she was still laughing. josh ran over to her to make sure she was okay. her knees were scraped and her hair was messed up and had pieces of mulch stuck in it.
"i wanted to come sit with you but i didnt want to do the whole slowing down thing normal people do when there done swinging" she told him.
josh rolled his eyes and laughed.
"god dammit jen!!! you know i love you but you can be such an airhead sometimes!!!" he laughed. jen didnt. she stared up at him and met his eyes.
"you love me????"
josh started to panic. did he say that out loud???
"josh....do you???? love me????"
he couldnt tell if she was kidding or not. he could easily get himself out of this one. of course he loved jen. she was his best friend!!! but for some reason he didnt want to get out of anything. he wanted to tell her. there. in the hawaiian park under spring clouds.
"i.......jennifer how could i not??? ive loved you ever sense that very first phone call. sense i very first saw you. ive loved you every time weve laughed and every time weve fought. i loved you when you had a boyfriend and i loved you when i had a girlfriend. ive loved you during my proudest moments and my weakest moments. ive loved you during nothings and somethings and everything in between. so yes jennifer i love you. ive been hopelessly inlove with the girl in the white dress from the very beginning and will be right up until the end."
jen didnt say anything for a while. instead she just took his hands in hers and leaned into him so that there faces were pretty much touching. josh fought the desire to just lean forward and take those perfect lips into his own.
finally she said something. "so you DO remember what color dress i was wearing when we met!!!"
josh smiled. of course thats what she got from that.
"ya i guess i do"
"josh??"
"ya????"
"we broke up. me and nick"
josh tried not to look excited. not that he really was. he was just worried about jen.
"why would he break up with you??? your the most perfect girl in the world and if he doesnt see that then he doesnt deserve you!!!!"
"i broke up with him josh...."
"what???? why???"
"because i love you too"
and then like belle and her beast there lips met taking away the beast and leaving only a prince.
-XX-
"jen thats bullshit and you know it....." josh said to her. "you know i hate being lied to......why dont you just tell me the real reason???"
jen sighed not looking him in the eye.
"josh after prague i.....was hurt. you hurt me when you said no. it made me feel like you didnt love me and i......called someone who i knew still loved me....."
"huh??? who???"
"josh.....i called nick"
Chapter 4
"josh.....i called nick. okay?!? i called nick and one thing led to another and we decided to give our relationship another chance. im sorry josh. i didnt mean to hurt you......."
josh felt his eyes start to sting with salty tears. how could she do this to him???
"did you screw him???"
"what??"
"i said....did you screw him"
"josh......."
"answer me"
".....yes. but josh you need to understand that you hurt me....."
he didnt hear anything that she said after that. her lips were moving but there was no sound. he stared straight through her.
"josh........josh please say something......."
"you.....jen you *cheated* on me??" josh asked.
"it....we were on a break and i was hurting josh you need to know that please know that"
josh fell out of his daze after hearing that.
"god jennifer you are so full of shit"
"uh excuse me?????"
"and to think i actually felt bad about prague.... i called you 273 times after that jennifer. you didnt answer 273 times. and it turns out that was because you were too busy sleeping with someone else????"
"thats not fair-"
"actually i think it's perfectly fucking fair jennifer. god i worked my ASS off for this relationship. i felt guilty for those whole three months we didnt talk. i missed you. i just wanted to make things better and i was stupid enough to think that you wanted that too!! god im such a idiot!!!"
jen was mad.
"how dare you say that stuff to me??? do you think it was easy for me to not talk to you for three months??!?!" she yelled.
"well after what you just told me ya i do!!" he shouted.
"i thought we were taking a break!!!"
"you know what??? fuck our friendship. you fucking disgust me and i dont want anything to do with you. not anymore"
jen didnt say anything.
josh stormed out of the trailer taking jens silence as his time to leave.
-XX-
"jennifer.....im so sorry. i was scared. scared to leave behind the life ive worked for my whole life. im a coward and im sorry. i shouldnt have left you in prague. i love you"
"i know that your mad and hurt and i know that i made you feel like that and im sorry im so fucking sorry. i love you jennifer"
"its been a week now......jen your scaring me. im worried about you.....please call me so i know that your ok??"
"jen im going crazy here.....its been a month sense i last kissed you......touched you......or fucking saw you...... i know your ignoring me but..... stop ok?? i miss you"
"jen......the decision that i made in prague. i know what it looks like. i know that it looks like i chose being an actor over.......over being with you. but thats not what happened. how i feel about you is real. very very real. and i know that you know how ive felt about you for a long time..... i told you.....we told each other and......and.........look jen i know that i probably hurt you. your probably hurt that i didnt run away with you in prague........but jen......i love you. i love you and i cant live without you. so.......please call me back"
the smell of pool water and listening to his voicemails was making jen feel dizzy. she held the phone to her ear and tried not to cry. but what she and josh had.......it was over now. she was never going to let herself get hurt like that again. she was stupid to think that josh would ever run away with her. her fairytale of running away from the fame and getting married and having kids and just living.......it was never gonna happen. and part of her knew she knew it wouldnt happen before this but that didnt make it hurt less.
she took the phone away from her head and looked at it one more time before she threw it into the pool.
"hey babe who was that???" nick asked.
"no one" she said. she leaned down and kissed nick on the ear. "absolutely no one"
Chapter 5
josh was so mad at jen he didnt even know what to do. the only thing he knew was that he had to get out of here before he exploded. so he went to the only place he could think of.
"oh hi josh" jena malone said when she saw it was josh who knocked on her trailer door.
"hi jena" josh said. jena opened the door a little bit more. he didnt move.
"well what are you waiting for silly!!!!"
josh felt like he was gonna throw up when she said that. even though jena didnt know that that was what jen had said to him when they first met didnt mean it didnt bother him a lot.
"i.....actually was wondering if i could maybe......take you out tonight??"
she smiled when he said that.
"ya id love to!! just let me get my purse and we can go k??"
"ya sounds good"
-XX-
"josh??? what are you doing here??? its midnight!!!" jen said after she opened her hotel door to see josh standing there with daisies.
"tonights our last night in hawaii" he said.
"ya so we should be sleeping because getting back to LA is gonna take forever"
"no.....we should be walking to the picnic i set up on the beach for us so that we can sleep on the plane" josh said. he took a purple daisy and put it in jen's hair. after that he gave her them.
jen smiled. "alright lead me to it"
they walked down to the beach holding hands. josh loved holding her hand. it made him feel so connected to her.
"oh my god josh this is awesome!!!!!" jen said when she saw joshs picnic.
they sat down and started to eat. jen looked up at the night sky. the moon was full and reflecting on the ocean.
"this is the most beautiful thing ive ever seen" she said. she was looking at the full moon.
"sure is" josh said. he was looking at jen.
-XX-
"so where are we gonna go????" asked jena. they were in joshs car.
"lou's" he said.
"whats that????"
"a club"
"oh fun"
on the drive there joshs phone started buzzing and didnt stop.
"sheesh!!! someone must really wanna talk to you!!!" jena joked.
"huh....weird" josh said.
when they got to the club josh checked his phone"
37 missed calls from Jennifer Lawrence and 37 new voicemails. his phone started buzzing again.
josh glared at his phone before turning it off. screw her josh thought.
josh went inside the club and saw that jena had already ordered them some drinks.
"just a few shots" she said. josh smiled. this was just what he needed to get his mind off jennifer shrader lawrence.
it got later and josh and jena got more drunk. they decided to go dance on the dance floor.
josh watched jena dance and realized how pretty she was. he never thought about jena like that before because he was too busy thinking about jen like that. he got close to her and started to dance with her.
"you are so gorgeous" he said. she laughed.
"your not do bad yourself handsome" she said.
josh leaned in and kiss jena. he pulled her waist closer to him and she put her hands around his neck.
"do you wanna come home with me???" josh asked.
"yeah but were gonna have to wait because were both to drunk to drive" she said. "lets see i called her like 20 minutes ago to come get us so.... oh there she is!!!!"
josh turned around to see who jena was talking about.
standing there was jen with tears on her cheeks. she looked at him and ran to the clubs bathroom.
"whats her deal....." jena laughed.
josh didnt care about jen anymore. he couldnt care about her. and besides what right does she have being hurt when she was the one who cheated on him?!?
josh smiled at jena and kissed her again.
with each second he kissed jena he could feel himself thinking less about jen.
this was just what he needed.

Aaaaagh i feel so sad that i'm too late to the yokai watch fandom... Like man i had NO CLUE that its popularity was declining?? I finally got into the thing and now its dying and maybe i could have helped if i bought all the things back when it first came out??
And it sucks that apparantly its declining popularity is ALMOST ENTIRELY due to badly handled localization efforts. Not the translation itself, but more about the PR stuff behind it. The really long delays between games being released and localized, features being removed in the localization, awkwardly timed release dates, giving an innacurate impression of what youre gonna get, lack of merchandise beibg sold anywhere except america, even america getting barely anything compared to japan, putting the anime on a bad timeslot on unpopular channels, not dubbing spinoff games, dubbing spinoff games and then cancelling them as soon as they started getting a goddamn fandom, a bad downloadable demo of the first game that contained zero sassy humour despite that being the whole point of the series, and still going ahead with selling yw2 in two versions even though that strategy only works in an atmosphere of high fandom and turns people away when its a new growing fandom.
Aaaand it all sucks cos yokai watch is already like.. Pre-biased against Western audiences. I mean the whole premise is a cute version of local mythology, and when they decided to add "american appeal" in the third game they just made up a bunch of monsters based on american food and stuff instead of having even one based on a real american cryptid/mythology/folk hero/etc..
AND it sucks that the goddamn response to the decline has been really realy stupid, in my opinion. They decided to cancel the goddamn anime aka the most popular part of the series, and replace it with a Dark And Edgy Sequel that bombed completely. This was their response to people asking for more story driven stuff like in the games, and how all the story driven movies were the most successful thing ever. Why didnt you just adapt the goddamn stories from the games and/or continue doing story stuff with the existing anime characters!! And now despite yokai watch 3 being super fuckin awesome and finally perfecting the awkward battle system, theyre gonna throw it all out and take a giant risk with a whole new battle system on nintendo switch. TAKING RISKS WHEN THINGS ARE ALREADY RISKY IS BAD, YO
And not to mention how badly they handled the female characters as soon as things got risky! Like wtf why were they the thing that had to go first?? Removing the katie option on yw3 was universally hated by everyone, and biased audiences against the new character hailey cos the way the game was framed made it seem like she was the reason katie is gone. And the damage control they tried was really stupid and pointless?? Now there's just ONE SIDEQUEST very late in the game where you get to go thru a mirror to an alternate world where katie is the protagonist. Which only cements the whole 'she is not canon' thing and doesnt do anything but rub it in that we cant play as her. And i mean you do technically play as her during that segment, so if they had all the models and animations and shit done then why not just actually make a katie mode??? Even if it had less features than the usual option and was just an appearance switch with no changed dialogue aside from pronouns, thats basically what the gender option is in pokemon so its better than nothing. Even if yeah the lil bit of different personality in older games was neat and gave me an actual reason to wanna play again with Nate. AND THEN even more annoying is the fact they also threw Hailey under the bus, removing her shortly after she appeared in the anime and doing the whole sequel reboot where she doesnt exist. And she gets basically no merchandise and its like theyre trying to forget her. Which SUCKS because she is POPULAR! She was only preemptively hated before the game came out, for replacing katie. But then everyone loved her when they saw how hilarious awesome she is, and ESPECIALLY she was super popular in america aka the exact thing they were trying to do with making yw3. Which they friggin didnt dub for 4 years!! The america game for america!! Delayed in america!! Seriously so many bad decisions!!
And whats super extra weird is that apparantly europe saved it so that yw3 actually came out? Yw1 and yw2 had better sales over here despite being less promoted, having less merchandise, and it being awkward to catch new episodes of the show unless you can stream american tv. Apparantly the third version of yw2 straight up wasnt released in america except as digital download, so thats why id never heard of it until i saw it in the shops. And what does nintendo do with this knowledge? Continue focusing on america! Aaaagh i feel so sad cos its clearly not the team actually making the damn game thats making these shitty decisions, its just pr businessmen ruining their hard work at the last minute...
Seriously every yokai watch game is a labour of love, filled with so much damn STUFF and CHARM and EMOTION and SILLY LIL MONSTER DUDES and friggin OPEN WORLD MONSTER HUNTING IN TRASHCANS which is still the best goddamn idea ever. Oh and DR MADDIMAN'S INCREDIBLY TEARFUL PLOT AND INCREDIBLY HUGGABLE FACE
So yeah man im so sad im only getting here when the damn franchise is dying and i hope my fandom rambling maybe helps some of you guys get interested too! You can pick up the first game suuuuper cheap now! Please embrace the cute ghosts with me!!! DONT PASS ON TO THE AFTERLIFE, YOKAI WATCH

Men are disgusting. Exhibit A:
I got the most CURSED private message ever last night on a (admittedly fetish-y) dating website since changing my pics out to something slightly sexier.
DO NOT read onwards if you want to keep your faith in humanity...
“hi hun
You are beautiful
i hope this does not come across as pervy or rude. I saw your profile and you have the most spectacular body ive ever seen
you have a body that i have been desiring for years
that may sound pervy, there was no way of writing it without it coming across as rude or crude. you are fucking gorgeous hun.
i dont have a fat fetish, im not one of those guys. im only attracted to big women, slim women do nothing for me.
if you are not into slim irish men thats ok.
you look so fucking adorable, what size are you hun? 2 of my ex's were size 18, my last ex was a size 26, i adore your size hun
if i was there i wouldnt fuck you, ok ofc i would lol, i would wrap myself around you and cuddle you
im single 4 years
well its been nearly 4 years since i had a cuddle.... & sex lololol
yes its been that long, i would love to have sex & making love for me is a must, i dont do one night stands or fuck buddies as i want more than just a fuck
fuck buddies dont want love making love too, kissing and gentle touching i love, again thats why i dont do one night stands, not into just fucking, so many women now days just want to fuck and nothing else
yes, cuddle and watch a movie, add some chinese food to that & its the perfect night in loll
just so you know hun im very very filthy minded and quite fucking perverted,i like being perverted, it makes the other person enjoy our sex so much more
i love making love too, but im not into normal boring sex, i like to have perverted sex, sex that arouses every part of you
im a pervert
aslong as we are both enjoying it is what matters, my ex was just as perverted as me, we did everything and i mean fucking everything, but we both felt loved & wanted when we fucked eachother, the fucking things i did to her
uggggghhh i shouldnt be saying all this, i almost started writing something about rimming you, but dunno if you like your bumhole licked, you have no idea how much i love rimming, ok now i AM sounding like a weirdo
im an amateur astronomer, gamer, love history, love 80s music & movies, i dont drink, i love coffee and cake, i talk alot as you know, i work as a landscaper, i love tv shows
now im making myself sound so fucking boring
you have no idea how fucking perfect you are for me, i really mean that, i would worship and adore you and if i lived there i would ask you out, then say after 30 dates, id touch you, god id fucking touch you
i would do everything to you
i would do anything to make sure your pussy is exhausted & satisfied, by using my cock, mouth & hands, fuck it, ill use my whole body lol
one of my biggest desires would be making you cum, it arouses me, knowing i made you climax and feeling your body as you cum or kissing you as you cum is something i truly love, im not happy until your pussy is sore and utterly satisfied
there has been times when i didnt get off, times i didnt even take my cock out, i love giving oral and rimming, i would be so content giving you oral for a few hours and at the end of it all you want to do is cuddle, thats fine by me, knwoing that you are satisfied is what satisfies me.
for stuff ive done, i love slut play in the bed room, i love piss, i love drinking it, not my own, id want yours, id eat your pussy as you piss, love rope binding, orgasm torture, rope binding, spanking & flogging, bruise your bum & tits if you want me to
love sloppy kissing during sex, the sloppier the better, i would love to suck on your tongue, never had my bum rimmed or fingered or pegged but want to be, love public fucking & public fingering, love a very wet messy pussy, id want your pussy juice all over my body, love dressing up, ive done fantasy rape play, not really into poo play, but have done it, took part in a lesbian gangbang, well i didnt fuck any of them, i watched, the gangbang was for my ex
i love making love as i said, also love very hard fucking too, love throat fucking, even till you vomit, as i said hun, im a pervert
im addicted to giving oral & i love rimming a big bum
i would love to rim you hun
im very verbal hun, i love talking very very dirty during sex
and when cumming, i have strong orgasms
fuck it i will write something about rimming you, see if you like it hun
if i was there right now, i would strip you naked, run my hands all over your gorgeous body, id want to feel every part of you
i would lay you face down on the bed, id kiss your neck, down your back and onto your big bum
id spread your cheeks, id see that perfect bumhole, i also love a smelly bumhole, my whole body would become aroused if it was smelly.....i know for a fact that i would probably let out a long grunt after i sniff it, the animal within me would come out. im not kidding baby, this is what a bumhole does to me
you would feel me dig my fingers into your bumcheeks as i shove my face into your bum, i would push my mouth around your bumhole, id suck it to get it to relax, then i would forcefully push my tongue into it
your bumhole would be in my mouth....id even bite down around it.......i would continue to suck & lick your hole, widening it so i get my tongue in even further
i would be eating your bumhole like a crazed animal, my mouth would be clamped onto you, it would not be gentle licking, it would be aggressive mouth fucking, you would hear me make noises as i very enjoyably eat your bumhole.
it would not just be a 5 minute rim, it would be a 2 hour mouth fuck, the more i eat your hole the more i fucking devour it
i know im very good at rimming, when i say good, i mean very fucking good, if your bum was smelly, im not saying you have a smelly bum, but if it was, well lets just say that your bumhole would experience things never done it before
after 2 hours of me violating your bumhole with my mouth, it would be bruised by my fingers digging in to your cheeks, your cheeks would also have bite marks from me biting down as a new way of arousal sweeps through me, then i would fuck it with my dick that stinks of pre-cum
you have no fucking idea baby what your bum would do to me
yes id be obsessed with your bum, i always would be, cos i will molest it every fucking chance i get
my cock has been throbbing while i was writing that, my boxers soaked with precum lol and i hope u didnt mind the part about your smelly bum, i have a huge scent fetish and i love licking and sniffing a smelly bum turns me into an animal hun, its the scent of arousal, i love eating a smelly bum sorry
i love rimming, i fucking love giving oral, i think you know that now lol, there is so many things im into
hope i didnt say too much lol, but baby, i would trade all that in just to cuddle and talk with you
fuck me you are beautiful, i dunno if i should send this as its way too long
im just gona finish my coffee and have another smoke, that one burnt out lol
anyway, i just wanted to say that xx i hope i hear from you, if i dont, ill know why

Philippines:The Mt Manlauyan journey
Adventure time with Joseph
Philippines has a lot of amazing Mountainous destination particularly in bukidnon, bukdinon are one of the visited place in tourist people and i have no wonder how wonderful bukidnon especially In mountain of Manlauyan. Manlauyan Gango the place where i belong, and was actually located in bukidnon. And I've been there last 2019 going back in my experience out there, First in May 2019 me and My friends are planning to have overnight in the top of the mountain, so me and my co youth planning for the adventure and after planning for tomorrow we decided to make "Kakanin" for our snacks.
We decided to have sleep there in one night . A one night with full of memories, a memories that I'll never forgotten and this journey was awesome and fun experienced. This mountain located at Manlauyan Gango libona Bukidnon. A perfect spot where you can enjoyed together with your family, friends, workmates etc.
BARANGAY OFFICIALS
First thing for most the barangay officials here are approachable and secured, after we go to The Mountain, me and my co youth get a permission to the barangay kagawad and apparently they said Yes, and I'm brimming with excitement, we have to get permission first for some security and they have rules and regulations, out there first the common one "dont put your garbage anywhere " second rules is, "don't bring any kind of sharp things" third observed cleanliness". And this is how The barangay officials preserved and secured the destination and thats a great manifestation.
They do this for everyone who want to visit here and all i can say "Wow" because even you're not a tourist if you livin here they also check you whenever you go to the mountain. Because the Mt Manlauyan Mountain is prone to Fire , that's why everyone should be keep safe.
KAKANIN FOOD ARE THE BEST
Before the night we go to the Mountain, me and Co youth decided to make "Kakanin for our snacks. And this place is rich in resources so we went to the house of our Co-Youth because they have house here and after that we get all the materials and ingredients, and it so fun to visit her because the air so refreshing and relaxing and you don't get stress out easily.
Going back to kakanin , the kakanin we make are "Suman", "Bibingka" and "Puto" this are the common kakanin snacks here in the place .after we make all the snacks, In exactly 4pm we are ready and preparing our tint and the things we needed to the mountains. Then we climbed all we want , for additional information honestly the mountain is to high to climbed but yes it's satisfying.
MT MANLAUYAN MOUNTAIN
The time we finished climbing the mountain is 5pm in short climbed within haft 1 hour , so after we relax to the mountain, drink water a lot because you have to be hydrated here because of the weather. And a couple minute ago i started to feel the essence of the mountain, and i was so amazed what i saw , it's perfectly green and the air you can feel is Relaxing to your body and you can feel all the freshness. And i consider this is perfect paradise.
Then midnight 6pm we prepared the foods the we cooked we eat and enjoy with music. The best part of this journey me and my Co youth after eating we enjoying the vibe of every music and sharing personal experience. And exactly 10 we decided to have movie marathon it was so awesome to have this kind of adventure together with your friend's. This places is a perfect places where you can feel free relax and away from stress , Away from pollution.
TAKING PICTURE IS ALLOWED
Taking pictures are allowed in this place you can take pictures all you want, so morning after me and my Friend's having Pictorial shoot and indeed i love our pictures. Then after taking selfie, we exercise and dance a morning, such a wonderful morning i experience, is like when you wake up early you can see the sky so blue, the the mountain are so green, tree's are so aesthetically beautiful, birds are flying everywhere. The sun so perfect golden egg figure, you can see that the mountain was so amazing.
HOSPITALITY
The hospitalty of this place is was appreciating, because if you are tourist people or you don't leave here they are able to communicate you and welcome you. And people here in bukdinon is very joyful but quite disciplined. Because even you are thirsty they can gave you water, and that's one factor why i love this place. It's no place like home. if you planning to experience this kind of adventure, you don't need to worry about the people here because they are Good Citizens .
And going back what happened after we taking selfies in the mountain. We eat first and relax, then cleaning all our mess, that's one of the rule before we go. And after cleaning all the things we do. We prepared our things for ready to go home.
RULES AND REGULATIONS
As what I've say earlier about the rules, the most important rules to this place, dont make any vandalism to the rock or the kubo house, because there's kubo in the mountain. Observed minimal shouting because the place was too enchanted
You don't need to bring any kind of sharp material such as knife, Scissors, cutter etc for safety purposes. And if you want to visit make sure you bring extra clothes or jacket because at night i promise so cold and you can't sleep if you wear minimal shirts. And don't bring lighters, or anything things that may cause fires. Because even small amount of fire it may worst and cause damage the greenness of the mountain.
But Yes, you can visited here because as what I've experienced last year i really enjoyed my journey that time. I can focus all the things, you can realize your self if you go there. And this place is perfect to reflect yourself and feel all the memories you experienced.
And also if you visited the mountain you can see the city, a wonderful city of Cagayan de oro. You can see the bukdinon and the city at the same time. And like it, because it's like you are in other country. And for more advice if you plan make sure you have to check the weather if it's rainy or not.
And I'll never expect that my expectations are more than that, im so much enjoy and having fun together with best people. And i didn't regret what happen because the result was satisfying. And really appreciated place.
BUSAY RIVER FALLS
Busay River falls is one of the place visited here in Mt Manlauyan because The mountain and River are connected place and yes after all what happened at the mountain me and my friends decided to swim and relax to the Busay river falls. A wonderful nature , green are so good the water falls are refreshing and cold. And there's a lot of big stone. And yes you have to be more careful out there, because may tendency you fall the big stone and stock your feet.
The the area is quiet place and you can hear only the breeze and big tree's and singing birds around. It's nice to be back there because i enjoyed this kind of adventure. Did you know that this Busay River falls is a mysterious falls. Because many people there are saying that if you swim along deeper may possibly you pull down your feet by the mythical creature called "shokoy" but thats a gossip you don't you need to worry about because as long as you can swim easily.
PICNIC IS FUN
Picnic here can be done here at Busay river falls. as long as you just clean up the mess you made because someone might see you from here and scold you for what you did. and since we are here we have to follow the rules here especially since it is very dangerous surroundings, do not bring a child because you will find it difficult to take care of things to do. make sure there are adults or adults in your group to guide you. because it is difficult to walk, especially since the tour guide is still fast here to walk. you really need to be attentive when you walk because you might not be there. yes we are really having a hard time with this situation but you are worth those days, because we have a lot of new things to see and discover things that are not in the city. and very interesting looking like the "Big Baliti tree" a mysterious tree you don't have to touch or piss the tree.
Bukidnon is the place where a lot of interesting experiences that you may learned and enjoyed? Now did you have plan to visit here?

The Color Purple by Alice Walker
[Goodreads]
The Color Purple is a 1982 epistolary novel by American author Alice Walker which won the 1983 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and the National Book Award for Fiction. It was later adapted into a film and musical of the same name.
Taking place mostly in rural Georgia, the story focuses on the life of women of color in the southern United States in the 1930s, addressing numerous issues including their exceedingly low position in American social culture. The novel has been the frequent target of censors and appears on the American Library Association list of the 100 Most Frequently Challenged Books of 2000-2009 at number seventeen because of the sometimes explicit content, particularly in terms of violence. 
Thoughts:
I loved this book so much, ahhhhh!! It was amazing. Read for my queer lit and film class and I don’t even know what I was expecting but it wasnt this. The writing was so well done that I was like… immediately into it. And it felt very.. Modern? or current? Yet also felt like a classic as well. The story is amazing, and the female characters rocked my world. It was hard to read at times but it ended so happily! It was about a young Black woman, and also her love for another black woman and for her family and IT ENDED HAPPILY?? Unheard of. It happened though. I don’t think I need to say more, go read it now please! Especially cos I’m going to go on about it in spoiler-y detail below:
This was amazing. Like! Ugh. It also was rough at spots, like Celie’s childhood and her father. Then her husband, who was gross. And her children she didn’t know much about. I don’t know exactly where to start. The grossness of her father, who tuned out to not be actually her father? Her children from him? The colonizers in the African village? (that was actually relevant to my post-colonial lit class that I’m taking! Upsetting but not unfamiliar). There’s so much!
I loved the relationship with the sister. It was just as important. It hurt that they were apart for so long, especially seeing as they didn’t even know if each other was alive or not. I was fully convinced that Nettie had died. I mean, what is the likelihood of them being apart for that many years, her traveling to Africa, her sister nearly a slave to her husband and having them be reunited??? Even more so, Nettie meeting Celie’s kids, becoming close to that family and bringing them back with her. The entire reunion scene had me balling. I was crying my eyes out with joy. They had just been through so much separately and deserved happiness finally. And they got it.
The gay shit was gay. I was kind of hesitant about it because how Shug was introduced but it was so gay!!!! Shug showed her love in a way that not many people had in her life, especially not in that romantic way. I think Celie definitely felt unlovable, and especially felt unlovable in a romantic sense seeing as her husband had no interest in her, but did have interest in her sister. It was interesting though because of that part when she leaves her for a man, but then returns. That ties into Shug’s character and her complexities. I think it was her needing to be loved, or looked at in a certain way that Celie could give her in that moment because they were so comfortable in their love.
I think Celie was an interesting character in her own right. She learns so much over the years and she really has to be their for herself. Until Shug, even sometimes with Shug, she had was alone in that house. She was struggling to survive.She did though. I liked the scene where she told Harpo to beat his wife, WHO IS A BADASS, and she was called out for it. I think that was an important moment for her growth as a character because it made her realize that she was weak in a way that Sofia wasnt. That upset her and scared her. She realized that she can be strong in her own way, slowly, from there.
The whole idea of the literal color purple was beautiful. God wants you to see the color purple in nature and wants you to appreciate it. It equates this queer love to something natural, something royal, something beautiful, and something to not be ashamed of. It reminds me of a poem that mentioned queers holding hands in public, and being strong, and not letting go despite people’s judgments. It just really made me happy and is a perfect title for the book.
I read this for my queer lit and film class and so I had to watch the film. I think it was really good but they took out the queer aspects almost completely. Shug and Celie kiss in the movie but even then they set it up in a familial way. I wrote a whole paper about this concept in that movie actually. Specifically focused it on the song that Shug sings to Celie cos it was SO GAY. But its seen as a sister love thing because she literally says “sister!! you are on my mind!!” but I talked about how thats a trope of making the queers “sisters” in an oppressive way to keep them straight but it also could be read as them being “sisters” in terms of the queer community?? I don’t know if it makes sense! I mean, I got a B on it so.. lol.
Anyway, the book was amazing and the movie was pretty good too, for what it was!

I Think I’m Done
I have this problem of falling for people who I can’t have. I was going through a heartbreak where I decided I was done trying to make someone mine or become someone, someone. I met this girl during this time she was weird mysterious and very cute. Like too cute for me, so cute I didn’t try and flirt with her or make conversation cause she was way too far out of my league. We worked together and eventually she asked me if I wanted to hang out. Weird for me because she initiated the first contact. I thought nothing of it. When we hung out her room was weird lots of miscellaneous items, very grotesque and weird. I couldn’t put my finger on her. We smoked weed and soon she said that we should move to the bed as it was more comfortable. I was so naive and never really had sex except the one time I was blackout drunk and was forced upon. I try to forget about it and don’t count it. I had no idea what she wanted to do. We cuddled and then after awhile she pulled me onto her. I still didn’t put 2 and 2 together. Eventually I did and I asked her if she had a condom. She didn’t I definitely  didn’t. We met up again and then had sex. It was nice for me. The first time type of eye opening sex. We met up again and again and kept having sex. But we also hung out and talked. Not just sex. We had a good time. There was about a week in between each visit. On like the 3rd visit, I asked her. “What is this to you?”. She said “I hadn’t really thought about it.” That was a clear answer to me. I don’t want this to go any farther than this right here. I was spot on. I quickly realized she was addicted to sex and had at least a few other guys that she could text at anytime to come over. We only hung out a few times a month. She rarely spent a night alone. She was sexually curious at 11 and messed around with a girl who was 13 when she was 11. She gave her first blowjob at 13. She then had many sexual relationships with people much older than her. Basically all men. She cammed for a while and sold sexual services online. She claims it wasn’t prostitution and that she walked all over a guy once for money and then fucked him but didn’t fuck him for money cause she would have fucked him either way is what she said. She stopped all that pretty soon before we met. But she had an abusive relationship with this guy. He just wanted sex and was very rude and dismissive to her. He would force himself on her and she would push him off, he would punch her and then force himself inside her. She wanted that though. She fell in love with him. She’ll never admit that she loves him. But she loved everything he gave her. Pain, suffering, a constant dismissal of attention. She was addicted to him. She broke that off right before me as well. We were friends with benefits. I got to be really good at getting her off. I never came. Not once did I come. I stopped trying really. She really liked having sex with me cause I was good at it. But we became more and more focused on our friendship. She claims that she actually really wanted me to make a move to be more. But after an argument we came to the conclusion that I did make an attempt and she shot it down. I was okay with being friends. I cared about her but couldn’t see myself holding her down. And i was practicing distance. About half a year into our relationship she met with another co worker and they went on a date had sex and she was very eh about him. He assumed they were dating now, at least thats what she says. She has a very poor ability to say no to people especially back then. They were now dating but we were still fucking. That came to end and she said we could hangout but no fucking. She hadn’t let me know that they were dating and so I would see them interact all the time and sometime would see him leaving as I was arriving. One time me and her were supposed to play quarters and when i got their he was leaving and I said “would you like to join” he was down and we started playing. He had his hands all over her and I quickly realized I was the third wheel. I got sad and was drunk. I decided to get cigarettes. I forgot my earbuds. Walked back inside and he was on top of her in bed. I did not say anything or even look really. I walked back out. I got cigarettes and walked for an hour or so. I got back and was still too drunk to drive so I sat outside. Eventually they both came out to comfort me. Mainly her. I got up and walked away. They followed me. We all laid on the bed going to sleep but I sat there and waited for them to go to sleep and left. Was one of my worst nights on earth. Cant believe I didn't see I was hurt because I thought she just didn't want a relationship and here she is in one. I knew she fucked countless guys but I didn't wanna meet the guy. We continued to hang out. On the day after her birthday, I came over with cigarettes with a bow and a card. The card had cute bears on it and a sweet message inside. She didn't look inside. The next morning, I said the real present I wanted to give her was to drive 3 hours away to this oasis and spend the day. I said i understood she prolly didn't wanna go tho and thats okay. She apparently didn't even spend her birthday with her bf as he left town and got her a grocery store cake. She got excited and said lets go. We had the most magical and romantic moment either of us have ever experienced. The sexual tension was there. When we got back I expected a long time before we could hang. The next night, She called asking if she could come over. I said sure and we stayed up all night watching movies. In the morning she asked if I wanted to come over I said yes. We got to her place and immediately started having some of the best sex we ever had. Pretty soon after, we heard knocking, on the outside door. We assumed it was the upstairs neighbor who didnt have a key again. She said lets go to the shower. I  said sure. But got up to let the neighbor upstairs. When i opened the door it was her bf. I was half naked and sweating. I remembered her phone was ringing all night and she wouldn't pick it up. She was ignoring him. I sat outside while they talked. She came outside and said “ ill cya later dude”. Dropped my stuff in my lap and walked away. 2 weeks of no communication I said hello and she responded that she needs some space right now. 1 month later she posted on her story and i asked how she was doing. I was growing increasingly worried that I was being ghosted. She sent me a picture of space. I sent her 3 texts more over the course of 6 months. She clarified that she wanted to be friends with me but couldn’t cause it was damaging her relationship with her bf. and she wanted to focus on that so maybe someday we could be friends again but not now. I was a wreck that whole time and realized that I was in love with her. I missed her dearly and was in so much time. I spent that whole time depressed and abusing drugs. At about 7 months. One morning I woke up and I had this feeling like a boulder had been lifted from my shoulders. I could breathe and I knew i had moved past her. I sent her a message saying thank you for all the lovely times. But I am over this. She responded and said she was very sorry how it all ended and wanted to talk about it over a coffee. She had broke up with her bf for the 3rd and final time the night before. We hung out and picked up where we left off having the best time together. We hung out increasingly frequently till it was every night. At about 2 week I said I cant do this if i’m not the only one. She said then “ lets date”. I didn't believe her but we started dating. We started spending every night and every free moment together. It was amazing so was the sex. Everything was perfect. Until one night I was going to hangout with my best friend who I hadn't seen in a long time. I got high scared and so i texted her. no response. I called no answer. I called again the phone picked up and i said hello but then the phone hung up. I called again and she answered she was out of breath and scrambling. Saying how the phone id said my mothers name that she didnt recognize. and she didn't recognize my voice. she also says that her phone was upstairs so she didn't hear it. She says that she was chasing the cat around the house which is why she was out of breath. I asked her what she was doing and she said she was going to have a cigarette. She then told me to hold on one second. She said she had to pee. I hung up and began to cry. She cheated on me. I saw it in my mind. I never even thought of it as a possibility until then and then it happened. I cried all the way to her. I showed up and told her I thought she cheated on me. She was very dismissive and was like “ really??” “are you serious?”. After that every time we spent time apart i would get anxious. I started looking through her diaries and her phone. All the time coincidental things would happen that she would have no explanation for and I would think she was cheating on me. This happened almost every day. It was hell for me. We were surprisingly doing well tho. Soon after we moved in with my parents to save money to move to Oregon. The anxiety only got worse and the stress and fighting became almost constant. She left back home. We stayed in a long distance relationship for 2 months. I came back to live with my sister who lives close to her. We are still in a relationship. She doesn't want to have sex. Or is very particular about it. Weve had sex only a handful of times and ive been back almost a month thats weird for us. I am very depressed, I dont feel like she loves me half the time. Other times i think she is cheating on me. other times were having lots of fun together. Its becoming unbearable and I feel i might kill myself soon. Im tired of this game. I ready to see whats next. I always knew I would never last long. Is 21 the year where I finally get the courage to end it.
