The Love Among Us

Chapter 1-- I’d Never Snitch On Daddy

so i haven’t seen many corpse husband x reader stories on here, so i decided to upload one myself. i’ve been watching jacksepticeye’s among us videos and when i heard corpse talk for the first time, i was like, “hol up” and now i’ve been obsessed with him. also, go stream his music on spotify, it’s amazing. enjoy! x.

corpse husband x female!reader

summary: while playing among us, y/n watches corpse kill felix in o2. when his body is reported, however, she doesn’t tell who killed him.

word count: ~3.6k

warnings: swearing, mentions of death (not real death), mentions of murder (not real murder)

EDIT: before i wrote this and after i published it, i did not know that corpse did not like to be referred to as “daddy”. had i known this, i would have not even thought of posting this. and since i know now, i won’t refer to him as such in the future. thank you. (10/19/2020)

EDIT 2: this is the first part to my corpse x reader series. i will be adding chapters as we go!

4 rounds before the incident

“I was in coms with PJ!” Sean exclaims.

“He is doing the liar voice!” Felix shouts with a laugh.

“I’m not,” Sean tries to say, but everyone talks over him and the voting time ends. Everyone left alive, though it was only four people, had all voted for him and he yells at them as he gets ejected.

stinky was not the imposter

2 imposters remain

The round ends and everyone unmutes themselves.

“Lizzie, you saw Felix kill me and you did nothing!” Roomie yells as soon as the round ends and the imposters are revealed.

“Yeah, because I was the other imposter.”

“Oh. Okay, well that makes sense.”

Everyone laughs and Ken starts the round again.

“Wait, can I invite y/n to play? She’s doing her twenty-four-hour stream and she just finished playing Monopoly with Mark, Bob, and Wade,” says Lizzie, looking down at her phone as they all appear back in the waiting room.

“Yes,” Corpse blurts out and there are a few laughs and chuckles.

“You were quick to answer, Corpse,” Sean teases.

“Shut up,” Corpse mumbles and there are even more laughs.

Lizzie smiles and taps into her phone. “I’m gonna invite her.”

“I can’t believe that you actually made that deal, y/n,” Wade is telling you after ending the second round of Monopoly that you’ve played with them.

You smile and cross your legs on your chair. “Look, I was going bankrupt and it seemed good at the time. Besides, Mark was going to win anyway, he owned half of the board.” Your phone buzzes beside you on your desk and you pick it up. “Lizzie texted me.” There’s a sound effect that plays in your headset and you look up at your screen and smile. “Thanks to _lorieplays _for donating a hundred dollars, that means a lot. Thank you so much.”

“Do you want to play another round?” Marks asks.

You shake your head, reading the text from your friend in England. “No, I don’t want to lose to you again.” You laugh. “Nah, Lizzie wants me to play Among Us with her and a few others. It was fun playing with you guys.”

“It was even though you took all of my money,” Bob snaps.

You laugh. “Yeah, yeah. See you guys later.”

“Bye,” says Mark.

“See y--” Wade begins but you cut him off when you disconnect from the call.

“Oops.” You put a hand over your mouth and laugh. “Sorry, Wade. Okay.” You straighten up and glance over everything, making sure it’s all working properly. “I have to pee and I think my roommate ordered pizza, so we’ll be back after this short break. Enjoy this live feed of my pet rats.” You giggle and switch the stream over to a view of your two rats in their cage where you have a camera set up. You take your headset off and head out of your recording room.

Every two months, you have a twenty-four-hour livestream where you play games with your friends from all around the world. Despite being only twenty-five, your Youtube channel had grown exponentially in the past three years and you’ve had the chance to meet lots of other Youtubers like Markiplier, PewDiePie, and your close friend, LDShadowLady.

Currently, you’re on hour twenty of twenty-four and you’re beginning to feel the effects of not sleeping for a whole day. You had been drinking coffee and energy drinks for the past four hours and that seemed to perk you up for two hours max. But your roommate had ordered pizza and that would hopefully wake you up.

After going to the bathroom and grabbing an entire box of pizza, you return to your recording room and sit down. You put your headset back on and eat a slice of pizza before switching the views back to you. “And we’re back. I hope you guys enjoyed my rats because I don’t. They keep me up at night.”

You read a comment while loading up Among Us and laugh. “No, they’re not dead. They’re sleeping. They do that a lot when they’re not fighting.”

When you finally get into the game and entire the code, you spawn in. You also quickly join the Discord chat and wince when nearly ten voices hit you at once.

“y/n!” exclaims Lizzie and the other voices die down for a moment before rising to greet you.

You wince again but laugh. “Jesus, you guys are loud. Hey, Lizzie.” You move your character to the customize tab and go to try and switch your color. But then you frown and realize that you’re stuck with being dark blue. “Damn, I wanted to be white.”

“Do you want to switch?” Corpse asks.

Your eyes widen you your stomach flips. You hadn’t noticed Corpse was in this game. Immediately, your chat became flooded with keyboard smashing and lots of “omg my shipp” and “y/n rlly said ‘anna oop-’”

“Uh, yeah, if you don’t mind,” you manage to stutter out and take a bite of pizza as Corpse’s player comes over and the white option becomes available. You select it and also select the goggles in the hats menu.

“How’s your stream going?” asks Sean.

You shrug. “Pretty good. I’m super tired, though. I literally almost fell asleep while playing Monopoly with Mark, Wade, and Bob.”

“You went to college, right?” You’re pretty sure that’s Roomie.

“Yep,” you affirm with a nod even though they can’t see you. “You’d think that those all-nighters writing papers and studying for finals would make me able to do this.”

There’s a laugh in the group and the round starts.

3 rounds before the incident

You scratch your eyebrow and sigh in relief when you’re the crewmate. You mute yourself and slide up in your chair.

“I like being the crewmate,” you say, heading towards admin as a habit. “It’s a lot less stressful than being imposter.”

After doing your tasks in admin and fueling the engines, you stumble across a dead body in the lower engine and a vent closing.

“Oh,” you say, and press the report button. You unmute yourself and begin with, “So I saw a vent close but I didn’t see who went in.”

“Who died?” asks Lizzie.

“Felix,” says Sean.

You smirk. “It’s always yellow that dies first.”

“Where was the body?” Ken asks.

“Lower engine,” you reply.

“I was in medbay with Corpse doing the scan so it wasn’t him,” PJ says and Corpse makes a noise of confirmation.

This makes your cheeks heat up and you smack a hand over your mouth. Your chat explodes again but you decide to ignore it.

“And I was doing wires in cafeteria,” Lizzie says.

“Sean, where were you?”

“I was in reactor doing the simon says thing,” he answers.

You sigh. “I hate that one. What about you, Ken?”

“I was with Roomie in electrical doing the power thing. You know, the one where you have to divert it somewhere else.”

“So do we skip then?” asks Lizzie.

“No one is super sus, so I’m going to skip,” you answer.

When no one is ejected, you mute yourself again. “I dunno why, but Sean seems pretty sus. Because I didn’t see him on the way down from upper engine. But I guess he could have gotten there in time.” You shrug and run over to the trash chute in the cafeteria. “RIP to Felix, though.”

After doing the trash there, you head down to storage, running into Corpse doing the wires in there. You wait there to clear him and once you do, you run a few circles around him to get his attention and he follows you over to the trash in storage and watches you do that. After that, the two of you head over to electric together and do wires there.

Suddenly, there’s a body reported and you unmute yourself.

“Sean just killed Lizzie in front of me!” exclaims PJ.

“PJ killed Lizzie,” Sean retorts, flipping the blame. “I watched it, he didn’t realize I was there and murdered her.”

“I watched PJ do the scan in medbay, he’s cleared,” Corpse says and you find yourself smiling for no reason. “Sean, you killed Lizzie.”

“I knew he was sus,” you say, grabbing another piece of pizza. You look at the box and your eyes widen. Had you really already eaten half of it?

“Wait wait, how am I sus?” Sean asks.

You take a moment to swallow. “Because when I was doing fuel earlier, I was running down from upper engine and didn’t see you in reactor. Sure, maybe you could have gotten there earlier, but it was super weird.”

The discussion time ends and PJ immediately goes to vote for Sean as well as you, Corpse, and everyone else still alive. Sean ends up getting ejected.

stinky was an imposter

1 imposter remains

“You’re such a detective, y/n,” Sean says when he gets ejected.

You laugh. “I just play this game too much.” You then mute yourself and smile. “I am a genius.”

You end up finishing your tasks quickly after that and then stand in the cafeteria and eat another piece of pizza and read some of the chat.

“’ What am I going to do after this?’ I don’t know. I might play some Minecraft. Should I have a poll on Twitter? I’m stuck between public Among Us games, Minecraft, and taking random quizzes on Buzzfeed.” You smile and hear another sound effect and something pops up on the screen. “Thank you to coochie man for donating a hundred dollars, that means a lot.” You laugh at their name. “I love your name, by the way.”

There’s some rattling in the cage behind you and you turn around to see one of your rats drinking water. You turn back to the chat and read another comment. “’ Do you have a crush on Corpse?’” You blush and smile, biting your lip. “I mean, his voice is hot. I’ve never met him since he lives in San Diego and I live in h/t, but yeah, I guess I do. I’ve been listening to his music for the past few days and it’s really good, you guys should go check it out.”

You look up and unmute yourself when a body is reported. “Who died?” you ask. “I wasn’t paying attention.”

“Are you already done with your tasks, y/n?” Corpse asks.

God, even the way he says your name is making you blush. “Yeah, I get them done quick.”

“She does that,” says Lizzie, “She always gets her tasks done quick.”

“Ken is dead by the way,” says Roomie and your snort, smacking a hand over your mouth. “I found him in the hallway by navigation. Where was everyone else?”

“I was in cafeteria doing nothing,” you say, leaning back in your chair and spinning around just a little. “I think I saw PJ downloading while I was in there, but I wasn’t paying attention.”

“Yeah, I was downloading,” says Ken.

After more discussion, Corpse points out that Jaiden had been following him and it looked like she had been faking tasks.

“No I haven’t,” she says.

“That sounds like something the imposter would say,” you hum with a smirk. “That’s pretty sus, Jaiden.”

Everyone else agrees and you all end up voting Jaiden out.

jaiden was the imposter

0 imposters remain

You cheer as the round ends and a blue victory screen pops up for the crewmates. “Good game, guys,” you say and play again, waiting for the host.

1 round before the incident

“Oh my god, I’m imposter again?” you groan and sigh when you spawn back in. “I was just imposter, I don’t want to be it again. I’m so bad at it,”

After another short round of you and Felix losing to the crewmates, you all agreed to play two more rounds before Sean had to leave. So you move your character to admin where PJ is and fake the card swipe before moving over to the admin security thing where you could see who was around where. Luckily, no one appeared to be near admin, so you quickly kill PJ and escape through the vent and come out through medbay.

“Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god,” you whisper over and over, running down to storage. “That was clean.” You fake getting fuel and go back up to the upper engine.

When PJ’s body is reported, you see that your fellow imposter, Sean, had reported it. You stay silent for most of the round and only say that you were in the fuel area when it was reported.

“Yeah, I saw her run past electrical earlier,” Corpse says. You blush and glance at your exploding chat and shake your head.

After everyone skips the round, you mute yourself once more and head towards navigation. “I hate this.” You drag the last syllable and watch Lizzie enter the room. You wait a moment before walking towards her and killing her, jumping into one of the vents. You let out a sigh and flex your fingers. “I’m so stressed.” You exit out of the vent into shields and your heart stops when you see someone else in there but you realize that it’s the other imposter, Sean, and you relax.

You run past him and go to the trash compartments and pretend to unload those. And that’s how the rest of the round goes. You kill someone, someone reports it and you vote someone off. Eventually, you and Sean do a double kill and end up winning the round.

You unmute yourself.

“Let’s go!” Sean exclaims and you smile.

“I can’t believe you killed me, y/n!” shouts Lizzie. “I thought we were friends.”

You laugh. “There are no friends in this game. I’m not loyal to anyone in this game. You could be my best friend and I would fucking murder you.”

“That’s cold,” says Roomie as everyone else spawns back in.

“Yeah,” you nod.

“Wait, PJ disconnected,” says Sean, and you all end up waiting for him to rejoin.

In that time, you look at your chat and say, “Hey, do you guys have any questions for who I’m playing with. I’m asking you, chat.”

“I swear if someone asks about my hands, I’m leaving,” Corpse says and everyone laughs.

You laugh louder when you read a comment and read it aloud, “_Ironlady _says that you should be a hand model, Corpse.”

“Okay, I’m leaving,” you hear Corpse say over everyone laughing.

“No, stay!” you exclaim, trying not to laugh. “C’mon, don’t leave.”

He sighs deeply and your brain goes fuzzy. “Fine. I’ll stay for you.”

You beam and your tummy turns. You ignore the whistles and remarks from everyone else and stand beside Corpse. You suddenly wish that the little bean characters could hold hands.

When PJ joins the server again, Ken starts the round and you cross your fingers, hoping to get crewmate.

0 rounds before the incident

You mute yourself and sigh when you’re a crewmate. “Thank god.” You let out a breath and go over to admin with everyone else. You swipe your card and go to the cafeteria to do some wires there.

The game turns out to be rather uneventful. A few people die and two people are voted off before the game gets truly interesting. And that happens when you walk in on Corpse and Felix.

“I’ve had this song stuck in my head for days,” you’re saying, walking from electrical over to O2. “And I can’t get it out of my head. Maybe singing it will help.” You hum the first part. “Don't go in there, you'll become one. Freaky creatures, monster party. Eyes of yellow, scales and feathers, tails in tethers. Turn the lights off. Bend the nightmare, you control it. Artful dodger, easy does it. Shut the closet, get under the covers. Snakes and lovers. Turn the lights off.” You do a little dance for a moment and continue hum the song, glancing at the chat as you go towards O2 after doing wires in storage.

“Like, I know the song, it’s just been stuck in my head,” you explain. “And it kind of annoys me--”

But you stop as you enter O2 and watch Corpse murder Felix. Neither one of you move and you don’t know what to do. “Uhhh.”

Then, without thinking, you turn straight around and make your way away from the scene of the murder. “I didn’t see anything!” you shout to no one. “I suddenly can’t see who murdered Felix.” You smack a hand over your mouth and stand in the middle of a hallway. “Oh my god, what do I do? I don’t want to snitch on Corpse, he’s hot.” You scratch the back of your neck and shrug, continuing on to reactor. “I didn’t see anything.”

You’re in the middle of doing the simon says in reactor when Felix’s body is reported. You unmute yourself and fidget with the sleeve of your hoodie. You know exactly who killed Felix.

“--was in O2,” says Jaiden and you focus back into the conversation. “And I didn’t see anyone around.”

“I saw you heading that way, y/n, but I know it wasn’t you because I saw you do the trash in storage.”

You look at the screen when Sean talks to you and you chew your lip. “I know who killed Felix.”

“Who?” asks almost everyone at the same time.

You close your eyes and swallow. It’s just a game, why are you taking this so seriously? Suddenly, a song lyric pops into your head and your stomach flips. You imagine yourself saying it and no one knows who you mean except for him.

You open your eyes. “I’d never snitch on daddy.”

There’s a laugh in the chat and you blush fiercely, your livestream chat blowing up once again.

“I think we know who it is, then,” says Sean, laughing.

“Yeah,” agrees Lizzie and your eyes widen.

“Wait, what?” you ask, watching everyone vote almost as soon as the discussion time ends. “Wait, hang on, who--”

“We know who you’re talking about, y/n,” PJ tells you.

You vote for yourself and your brain goes blank as you see that everyone voted for Corpse. He even voted for himself. They knew. They all _knew _about your feelings for Corpse.

The round ends with Corpse being voted out and the crewmates win. There’s some talking, but you stay on the victory screen. You’re trying to decide if your mad or embarrassed or both.

“I didn’t know you’d say that, y/n,” Corpse says, effectively breaking you out of your trance. “I thought you were gonna snitch on me.”

“You heard her,” teases Lizzie and you can tell she’s grinning. “She’d never snitch on you, Corpse.”

He laughs and you feel something in a certain place. “Oh my god, I’m gonna die of embarrassment.” You put your face in your hands, listening to your friends tease you in the chat. You suddenly want to jump out your window and run into traffic.

“Don’t die,” comes Corpse’s voice through the onslaught of teasing. “I’ll be sad.”

“Fuck!” you shout and slam your hand on your desk, shaking your equipment and scaring your rats. “I’m so sorry, Corpse, that was really weird, I--”

“Stop.” He interrupts you and the chat goes silent and you look up at the screen even though you can’t see him. “It’s okay. It was funny.”

Your eyes widen and then narrow. Funny? He thought what you said was funny? How could he think it was funny?

But then he speaks again and he sounds oddly flustered. “Uh, I gotta go. Um, it was fun playing with you guys. Bye, y/n.”

“Bye Cor--” but then he disconnects and you’re left talking to no one. “--pse.”

There’s a long moment of silence until Felix breaks it. “I can’t believe you just watched me die and didn’t do anything about it.”

There are some laughs and you smile faintly, rejoining the game. “Yeah, uh, sorry about that.”

“Are you okay, y/n?” asks Lizzie.

You blush and swallow. “I don’t know. God, I’m so weird.” You run a hand through your hair and adjust your headphones

“No, you’re not,” Roomie assures you. “He has a crush on you, too.”

Your eyes widen and you scoot up in your chair. “He does?”

“I mean, he called you pretty once during a game and said that he watches your videos a lot, so maybe.”

You groan and sink in your chair. “I’m gonna go, I need to run into traffic now.”

A few people laugh or chuckle and Lizzie asks you if you’re actually going to leave.

“Yeah,” you tell her. “But not to run into traffic. I’m going to go play Minecraft to soothe myself.”

“Aw.” You can practically hear her frown. “Okay. Bye, y/n.”

“Good luck with your stream,” Ken tells you.

You grin. “Okay, thanks, bye.”

When you exit the game and leave the chat, you scream. You actually scream and it’s loud. Your roommate even knocks on your door, asking if you’re okay.

You look at them and nod. “Yeah, totally fine. Probably about to have a mental breakdown, but I’m fine.”

“Okay,” they say and lean on the doorframe. “But I’m not cutting bangs for you again.”

You laugh and nod. “Yeah, okay, fine.” They leave and you turn back to your stream, feeling like you’re about to cry. Corpse knows you have a crush on him. And it seems like he has one on you as well, but now you’re embarrassed because you called him ‘daddy’ on stream.

You rub your eyes. “Well, now I know what’ll be streaming on Twitter tonight,” you tell the chat.

First thing’s first, you never think twice about going above and beyond with your blog and the interactions with it, and it impresses me all the more each time you do so. I give you my applause in the empty office I am writing this in👏👏👏. I also hope your work day goes as smoothly as possible☺️

Secondly, sorry for the giant wall of self-ship text😅

💙Tendo x Jay - competitive teasing and eccentric; we both share some eclectic tastes and it shows with anything one has gotten or found for the other; dark humored jokes being whispered to one another to see who breaks first in the unspoken challenge of not laughing (lots of snickering though); finding excitement in the strange and obscure things in life; I have the part time job of being a head rest; “collision hugs” and clothes tugging.

💙Akaashi x Jay - quiet and comfortable early morning silence; the mix of tea and coffee are mixed throughout the air on a daily basis; him making unexpected witty remarks followed by my sarcastic- yet flustered comebacks; bookstore/library dates; him “missing” sweaters and jumpers that I somehow manage to “find” and just so happen to be wearing too; de-stress nights of taking care of the other and talking about our week; the kind of problem solving of asking “do you want solutions or comfort”; hugs that express what words cannot and hand fidgeting

💙Kenna x Jay - calm, late nights illuminated with slow Colour-changing LEDs; mutual hair teasing when one of us is bored or fidgeting; matching cat pjs; him playing games on his choice of device and me sitting next to him or somewhere close by (or in his lap if permitted- seeing the screen while playing is kind of needed); late afternoon walks when the weather is nice (more so me making sure he doesn’t run into anything or get lost since there’s about a 75% chance he’s consumed by a game); a physical calendar with colour-coded release dates of upcoming games; quiet cat-cafe dates that end up with us staying longer than intended; behind the back hugs and quiet wind-down cuddles.

I’m also throwing in a random song from my giant library of music as well bc you are too kind for allowing me to send this in hun💙

❣️Ris x Bokuto - soulmates - maybe some underlying childhood friends to lovers with how well you two match energies. The pastel version of Gomez & Morticia Addams with how pure and unadulterated the love is. (A song I feel expresses this ship would be Blueberry Eyes by MAX ft. SUGA of BTS).

❣️Ris x Suna - idk if this is going to make sense, but I get the flirty (Suna) x flustered (Ris) vibes from this one. He knows what power his flirting holds when it comes to you and he doesn’t hold back (well for the most part if you guys are out and about). (The musical aspect of this lovely ship is giving me the vibes of Gimme Love by Joji).

AW JAY 😭😭 you’re so damn sweet gosh, thank you, i appreciate everything you said so much, ily <3 your selfships are all so cute, the kenma one plssss :’)

tendou x jay — enemies to lovers but it’s only you who dislikes him, he finds your reactions funny, so he teases and flirts with you all the time

akaashi x jay — friends to lovers, one sided pining, THEN mutual pining, but also slow burn bc neither of you will say anything abt your feelings

kenma x jay — second chance, forbidden love, mutual pining, the thing where you both wanna hold the other’s hand but you’re too hesitant

PLEASE THE SONGS YOU GAVE ME ?? tysm i love both of them sm, especially gimme love <33 i can v much see the childhood friends to lovers w bo, and the flirty x flustered situation is SO accurate,,, istg the power suna has over me?

#if i ever got a suna anon i dknt quite know what i’d do #don’t*#🍓 daily asks #🃏 ris responds #♔ ris’ royals #♤ jay #long post

college crash course #3: deadlines and daily tasks, aka getting shit done on time

I hate online courses. I just do. Everyone else in my life loves them and scrambles for the chance to stay home in their pjs as they do their work. My brain, however, cannot for the life of me remember to complete tasks with no outside input, and so every single class I’ve gotten a low grade on in my college career has been an online class, without fail. I need structure to thrive, as do most adhd people (especially those in college) and so

What’s the solution here? What works best?

I have a couple strategies for this that work in tandem, so here they are

Strategy 1: Daily Task Sheets

on my desk I have at least 12 different types of sticky notes for different uses. Nothing so intense as color coding or organizing that way, I mean one for little positivity reminders and a smaller one for words I like and want to include in my writing and another larger one for little sketches to do as I work, etc etc.

One of these stacks of sticky notes is large and neon and used specifically for daily task lists. I have an app for larger scale lists and things that need to be done in general, but every day before I start working I sit down at my desk, pull off one of my big sticky notes, and write down a checklist of everything I need to do today (or, on the weekends, everything that needs doing before Monday).

I break these tasks down to chunks that are palatable for me, ie right now I have one task that reads “300-400p Existence” aka my quick notation for having to read 100 pages of a novel for class, and another separate task that says “400-500p Existence” because seeing 300-500 would make it Too Big and my brain would throw a tantrum and not do it.

I also put down tasks that will literally take me three seconds, like checking to see if I have unexpected homework for a class that rarely has actual work to do, or replying to an email from someone. Any task that needs doing goes on the list.

(I do this for a couple reasons, actually. One is because if I don’t write it down, I won’t remember it and it won’t get done, but the more important reason is that the more items I see checked off, the more I’ve gotten done and the better my brain will cooperate because see? we’re being productive! and my brain responds with that sweet sweet dopamine.)

When I’m checking stuff off (and this is the important part) I don’t just put a checkmark and move on. At a quick glance, then, it looks like nothing is done, because the boxes are all still mostly empty. I completely fill in each box, and sometimes when it’s going really slow I liberally cross off every item as I finish them so I can’t see the words anymore at all so I know I did stuff. The easier it is to see and process how much I’ve done, the better.

(it’s also important that it’s a sticky note, as well, because regular pieces of paper are Extra Things that will get lost, sticky notes can move and stay with me if i have to go somewhere else to go print something, for example. I can just peel it off my desk, stick it on my laptop, and go)

Strategy 2: Storing and Collecting Tasks

so Charlie, you might ask, how the heck do you know what needs to be done each day? How do you remember these tasks to do? Well this strategy is actually thanks to Ryan, my guy in student disability services. He showed me this app that I’m about to show y’all to make your lives a million times easier.

but first, let me explain. When making my daily task sticky notes, there’s no way I’d be able to remember everything I have to do on the top of my head, right? So really when I first sit down I open my laptop, check on my phone real quick how many emails I need to respond to (but don’t respond yet) and open up my college’s online system Canvas to make sure I don’t have any new announcements, not checking anything else yet. Then I grab my phone and open up my shiny new app: IKE

its a productivity app based on the Eisenhower model of task orientation, splitting up tasks into four categories: Important and Urgent, Important but Not Urgent, Urgent but Not Important, and Not Important or Urgent. You can rename these categories as you choose (they choose to name them, in order, Focus, Goals, Fit In, and Backburner, but I’ve changed them to Do Now, Soonish, 5 Min Tasks, and kept Backburner, but you do you)

Now you can choose to completely forego the IKE model and just use it as four different lists of things, but IKE also has a solution for that which is different lists as well as different categories within these lists. So the four categories above apply to all the different lists, which it displays in a cute four square style that tells you how many tasks are there, but doesn’t tell you what they are until you open the category, and has a quick task adding feature where you drag a circle from the center of the four corners into whichever list you’re going for and make the task right then. But for the lists they’re all separate and can all be different colors depending on what they’re for, that’s all up to you.

Now how does this seemingly complex system work for you, Charlie, who’s brain has the max processing power of a four year old on speed most days? you may ask

well it actually makes it super easy to put everything in, and if I put a task in the wrong spot I can move it easily, plus I can add due dates if I want, or a million reminders at all times of day if I want, but the main deal is that it’s a holding place for everything I need to do. When writing my daily list, I check my Do Now category first in all my lists (I have one for Uni, one for my student org I run, and one for any extra tasks that need done) and write all those in. Then I go to the 5 Min Tasks category of only the Uni and Extra tasks lists and add those in, and then I’m good for the day and I can start it all

As for getting the tasks in there, I paid the extra one time 99cent charge to get the widget for my home screen on my phone, and whenever I hear someone ask me to do something, I shove the task in there. My mom asks me off handedly to do the dishes? I throw it in with a reminder every half hour until I complete it. Someone asks me to send some emails? throw them in the 5 min category and tell it to remind me when I get to my computer (because it can do that, too, location based reminders for when you arrive or leave somewhere, which is great for reminding myself to pick something up on my way home from uni)

Strategy 3: Accountability

I don’t live alone, I never have, so part of my strategy as well is to have people I live with hold me accountable. Not in like a “you’re my minder now, hover over my desk to make sure I work” kind of way, but in a way that I tell someone who will be around what I have to do that day in a casual way - me and my roommates used to run through everything after we were all home from class, me and my mom tell our days to each other each morning since we both have trouble keeping on task - then when someone sees me doing something not on my list they ask me about it, which reminds me of what I need to be doing.

for example, if I mention to my sister that I need to read, send emails, and write a paper today, then if she sees me watching tv or on my phone she’ll ask me what’s up, did I finish my shit yet? which then spurs my brain into “fuck, I got off track, time to jump back in” mode.

If you live alone, the best way to do this is to make a post about being busy or texting someone that you have a lot of stuff to do, then if they see you on social media or if you get stuck in a conversation with them, they’ll call you out.

ADHD brains need constant call outs because we can’t tell when we’ve gone off track and followed tangents because our brain just wants dopamine and doesn’t care where it comes from, so it won’t question it once it gets what it wants, whereever that comes from.

so - tl;dr I shove any task I get into an app (if you’re not an app person, just make notes on your phone or put it in your calendar or voice recordings or whatever works best for your brain that you’ll remember to check) and unload all the tasks onto a smaller more streamlined daily task list that I write and check off each day, and make sure there’s someone that knows what I’m not supposed to be doing so they’ll call me out when I get off task for too long.

Now go forth and get shit accomplished! I believe in you!

New Horizons Status Report #15 (Day 6)

Session 1

I collect our stuff from the mailbox - a letter and gift (a mama panda) from Jeremiah, a thank-you letter and jogging invitation from Boots, and my stuff from the Nook Mileage Program and from Nook Shopping. I dig up a fossil which Blathers determines to be a juramaia, and I drop that and my tarantula off with him, and say good morning to Jeremiah on my way

Pinky moved in this morning! :D We go say hello and send her a welcome letter with a gift of K.K. Moody, because I accidentally bought three yesterday :/

Boots "made" a leaf, and he gives me the recipe. I also got a recipe from "Stitches" for a hyacinth wreath, so if I find someone with hyacinths on their island I could make one

I dig up a manila clam on the beach and come up with a DIY recipe for fish bait. I shoot down a menu chalkboard and dig up three more fossils - a right megalo side (which we already have), a deinony torso (new!) and a T. rex torso (new!!)

I go to Tom Nook and take part in the ceremonies for the museum and Nook's Cranny

Session 2

I shoot down a recipe for a bamboo-grove wall, and Jeremiah gave me a present - a zen-style stone!

I redeem another Nook Miles Ticket and end up at a bog-standard island. I catch a pop-eyed goldfish but that's about it.

I make a windflower wreath for each of our neighbours, including the one we haven't met yet. I plan to give them out the day after tomorrow, so I can hand them to each resident in person. I also mail a vest with binoculars to Boots, since he liked mine so much, and some tatami flooring to Paula

Session 3 (Post-Direct)

Nintendo dropped a Mini-Direct, so I know that Bunny Day is coming soon :D

I spend a lot of time de-weeding a section of my island that's cut off from the rest by cliffs and the river. I've managed to collect one of every fruit thanks to my friends, and I want to turn that section into like a fruit grove. My first fruit trees, out by Blather's museum, should be fully grown and bearing fruit by tomorrow! I also move all the hardwood trees from the area

I finally gather enough shells for a partition, and make one of those and a bamboo noodle slide

I get the bamboo lattice and barbed wire fence recipes from the Nook Stop, some Nook Inc. merch (tee, blouson, socks and uchiwa fan) as well as a NMT which I redeem immediately

The island isn't much, but it does have a koi pond. I also catch a football fish, find a recipe for a knitted grass backpack from "Sydney", fish up a second boot and another tire, which gives me the idea for a tire stack recipe, and dig up the fossil of an ophthalmo skull - meaning the ophthalmosaurus is complete!

All the stuff I gathered from the island sells for over 28,000 Bells, and I've reached and exceeded carrying capacity

I say hi to Pinky, who's still unpacking, and she waves as I leave

Boots flirts with me again - I'm wearing the mint gingham shirt I came to the island with, and he compliments it and warns me to be careful, saying. *and I quote*, "A little running could get you all sweaty"

While on the cliffs gathering weeds for some backpacks, I run into Wisp again. After re-filling the void of his heart, he offers me flooring. I go for the expensive option and get some brown argyle-tile flooring

Session 4

Did some midnight fishing, and got the cherry salmon and stringfish

Shot down some terry-cloth socks, a quilted jacket and the recipe for a light bamboo rug

Boots runs up to me and teaches me the Shocked Reaction!

That's it for the night. I put on my PJs and go to bed

(Paula is just... stood outside my house doing curls??)

Tomorrow is a big day for two reasons:

I’m finally going to find out who my fifth neighbour is, and

I finally have enough Bells to plant a max Money Tree :D

As always, Switch code is in my bio if you wanna be friends!

Don’t Listen

BTS

Kim Taehyung/Reader [F]

Genre: Angst, Hurt/Comfort, Fluff

Words: 4.8k

For the one and only bby @tattooedbabymin bc she deserves the world and all its smiles.

He was angry. Furious. Livid. Completely perturbed. All because he couldn’t keep his mouth shut and caused a scene when one wasn’t called for. He was currently in the comfort of the dance studio at 6:30 PM. His bandmates all vacated for the day to let him destress on his one for a little while before they intervene. They didn’t know how to comfort him anyhow, it was all too fuzzy for them to comprehend anything that could or did happen before.

Taehyung knew that. It was his own self-destructive tendencies and pride that clashed into the spiteful demon that worked its way out of his mouth and into your face all unknown to his peers, his friends. It was earlier that morning when everything happened. He woke up, feeling like today would bring nothing but troubles, a good day to spend in bed, but he couldn’t afford that luxury.

He was the last to wake up, a stiff neck and the annoyance of a runny nose. He hated the cold. Crawling out of bed, he wandered around mindlessly for a moment before pointing in the direction he needed to go to physically show his semi-working brain the task at hand. After a trip to the bathroom, a quick face wash and cleaning of his precious pearly whites, he set down for the kitchen.

A bowl of cereal sat in front of him half empty by the time someone else wandered into the room, teasing him for his late sleeping habits. It was only 10, good lord. He felt so agitated, yet he didn’t know why and he couldn’t shake the feeling off. Taehyung is a force when angry. He resembled a frozen over river. If even one person were to bravely face the tempting fate of walking along the ice and cracking even a bit of it, the threat of the raging water beneath the barrier would always increase.

The cracks in his icy cover over the river were ungodly thin this morning. Jimin was always very perceptive of all the member's tempers and mood and was always on the prowl to improve them, but Taehyung intimidated him today. He’d trot up with a smile, and within a couple feet of proximity, he could feel the negative vibes rolling off him like an avalanche. Any idea he had to cheer him up all vanished and he was left cold with no answers at all.

Finally, he turned to you. Taehyung’s best friend. You knew him growing up and were his source of comfort all through his training days and the days up to debut. Even when he was the ‘secret member’ and wasn’t known until after debut, you stood at his side and supported him no matter what. You’d encourage him that he’d be a hit, a star, a love amongst so many people that soon the past wouldn’t matter because he would climb to the top. Now, he was and you were still there.

You soon even moved to Seoul to be closer to him as you supported yourself, missed your family and smiled while you worked yourself to damn near death to keep supporting him, his members and keeping yourself stable but financially and mentally it felt like at times.

You were in the confines of your basic apartment that costs an arm and a leg to keep and max hours at work when Jimin called you. You ran to your phone as you left it on your charger as you bolted out of the bathroom, hairbrush in your hair as you held your toothbrush in your mouth. A mix of toothpaste and saliva in your mouth. Sliding to a stop in your giraffe printed pjs pants and plain black spaghetti top in front of your bedside table.

“He-phu?” You mumbled, rather unattractively into the line. You could basically hear the way Jimin chuckled and slapped his head. He squeaked on the line as you rolled your eyes. Taking your phone and Jimin’s voice to the bathroom. “Holph un,” you said as you put the phone on the sink counter and promptly spit out the toothpaste. You rinsed your mouth with lukewarm tap water and dabbed your lips with a towel for any leftover toothpaste on your lips and raked that brush completely through your hair.

You picked your phone back up now.

“You still there?” You asked much more audible this time.

“Yes,” he said with a dip in his voice.

“So, why the early morning call?”

“Look, I know your busy, but do you work at all today?”

“Uh,” you started as if he asked the stupidest question in the world, “duh. I always work Jimin. When do I not? I do need to survive you know.” Jimin sighed. “But, if you need something I don’t go in until 4.” You actually heard his mood improve. “Is something wrong?”

“Well, you see- it’s Taehyung. He’s all moody and no one knows why.”

“Have you asked him?”

“Are you crazy?! He’s fucking terrifying. I thought Jungkook was going to get on his knee and grovel just because he dropped a spoon too loud in the skin while Tae was getting a glass of water. He growled at him, Y/n. Growled!”

You sighed as you rubbed your temple. You padded into your living room and looked down at the outside, 8 stories down. Why did your apartment have to be so high up? You couldn’t see hardly anything other than people the size of peas practically race-walking on the streets. Turning and going to a small sliver of wall that held both an outside and insider thermometer. A whopping -9 outside. You shivered at the mere thought of going out.

However, you knew how Tae was when in a foul mood. He’d forego anything he could just to less bothered. He’d probably lock himself up all day if not bothered into work. Which was probably the direction he was heading today. You knew he and the others had some stuff to do, some stuff to record, some errands to run and some dances to practice.

“Jimin,” he hummed at you, “you boys go ahead and head out. If Tae is really in a bad mood, I’ll stop by while you all are out so he can talk to me privately.”

“Are you sure? What if-”

“I can handle it. I have the passcode to the dorm and you guys are busy. Just leave the grumpy munch to me, okay?” Jimin submitted, easily in fact. He knew you knew what to do for the most part. But he couldn’t shake this stupid feeling sitting in his gut like a lump of black coal.

“Okay.” He responded.

“Good. I’ll be there in an hour, make sure everyone is out by then, and try to convince Tae to stay home. Just tell Namjoon to tell him to, he usually listens to him.” You got one last confirmation from Jimin before the call ended and you trotted to your room to get changed. Guess you were putting on makeup and getting ready early today, so much for chilling in pjs until work called.

XXX

Just as you said, promptly an hour later you were punching in the 9 digit code you ran over and over in your head to memorize before pushing yourself into the warmth of the large dorm of the 7 idols. Shaking off your coat and hanging it from the coat rack and peeling off your boots with the inside coated in fuzz, you stepped inside.

Your hair had been thrown up in a bun, the easiest style to travel and work in. You had a bag with your work uniform on your back that you left by the door just in case you were here for so long you can’t make a run home to change. The most in one piece pair of jeans you owned on your legs with a turtle neck sweater to cheat the idea of wearing a scarf. Simple makeup, just enough to were it wasn’t ‘unprofessional’ for your work environment.

“Taehyung!” You called into the apartment but didn’t get a reply back. His set of keys still sat in the bowl at the door next to the coat rack, so he was still indeed here. His keys also being the only set in the bowl showed that all the boys were also out. Good. “Taehyung!” You tried again, yet you still got nothing back.

Waltzing inside, you looked in the kitchen. Not there. He wasn’t in the living room or in the little corner in the hall he randomly sits when he was bored for no reason either. Not in the bathroom or taking a shower, and definitely not in the laundry room. Last bet, his room. If he was in a bad room, he probably was in his room sulking. Being all mopey.

You walked up to his room, taking all the twists and turns of the halls before you stood at his door and knocked. “Tae, open up. It’s me.” Yet again, no answer. Could he be sleeping? You sighed as you turned the doorknob into his room and stepped inside, keeping the door open behind you. You were more than set on trying to drag him out to talk.

Taehyung was lazily laying on his bed. One leg hanging off the mattress while the other was propped up with his knee up. Is phone was hanging above his face, threating to his it if he happened to drop it. The room was dark, the curtains were drawn, shutting out the sun as all the lights were off. The dim light of his phone illuminated his face as his face itself was neutral.

It was blank, unmoving. He didn’t even acknowledge you were in his room. His presence just wasn’t exciting enough you guessed. Normally, he would bound up and carry you around any and everywhere just so he could squeeze any time you came over for all it’s worth. He knew your free time was very limited, so this was direct lack of response did tick you off.

You stood, cross-armed at his bedside as you stared down at him. He clearly was in a bad mood, anyone with eyes could see that. You tapped on the inside of your arm with an impatient finger, not saying a word, just staring down at the man. Soon, he seemed to get frustrated as he locked his phone and dropped it on his chest, moving his icy gaze up to you.

The room was too dark to make out your precise facial expression, but he expected that you weren’t exactly smiling.

“What?” He bit. You blinked your eyes.

“What's with that attitude?” You shot back, making him just groan and roll his eyes. “Taehyung!” You scolded as he quickly sat up in bed, slamming both feet down on the floor and stood up. He stood above you, towering above you, glaring down at you. Yet, you didn’t falter. “You’re not scaring me away,” partially true. Taehyung really was scary when he was angry, and it’s not often that he directs his bad mood towards you. Was he not your best friend, you’d be gone from the shrinking power of his harsh eyes.

“What do you want, Y/n?” He asked with nothing but venom in his voice. It almost made you shake, shiver, coware- but you held fast to your bravery. Maybe a part of Taehyung’s brain knew this was wrong, pouring his anger out to you. He didn’t know why he was mad in the first place?! Why did he want to scratch his skin until the irritation left him? Why did he want to punch a wall, or scream until his vocal cords were shot? He didn’t know, and the fact he didn’t know made him that much more irritated.

“You really need to drop the attitude. What the hell is your problem?” He could feel your own distaste for his mood. Of course, you would be mad at him, pulling something like this when he knew you worked. Yet, despite that, he shut his logical thoughts away and persisted with the uncooperative nature the day has clearly set for him. For him, your words translated in a way that was telling him he didn’t have the right be to in a bad mood.

“My problem? Why the fuck should I have to explain anything to you anyway?” You recoiled at that. Dropping your crossed arms and taking a minuscule set backward. You floundered before you found your voice again.

“What- I’m here because your whole team is wandering the hell is wrong with you!! Do you realize how worried Jimin is, how much your frightening everyone? Sure, it’d make sense if they knew, but you won’t dignify anyone with a reason!”

“I don’t need a reason!” He raised his voice over yours. “I don’t need a damn reason to be annoyed, is that some written law in some magical book about being a person?! Can’t I just be mad to my own decree?!”

“That’s not the issue at hand Taehyung!” The two of your stood in his room, chest to chest screaming for no reason. You didn’t want to raise your voice, but he kept egging you on. His loud, baritone voice made you have to speak up to even attempt to be heard.

You could hardly comprehend the words flung around into the space around you both. The atmosphere was heavy, thick, nearly flammable. You were getting sick of this. It feels like so long, and there’s no way you’ve been arguing for as long as you think.

The argument then moved rooms. Taehyung checking your shoulder as he moved past you, you more insulted than hurt, chasing him and you both continued your mutual verbal assaults. He made it into the living room, stopping at the wooden coffee table at his shin as you shouted at him once he stopped shouting at you for a breath.

“Taehyung, stop!” He grits his teeth, head pounding as he brought his foot up and kicked the coffee table. The table slid across the carpet before it snagged a string and tipped to its side. The force put into the bottom of his new sore foot must’ve been extremely charged. “Taehyung?!” He whirled around to you, eyes burning.

“Leave!” He pushed at your shoulder, making you stumble. “Get out of my house!” You grit your teeth, the frustrated tears finally starting to sting beyond your ability to keep them back. Rolling one by one down your flushed, anger painted cheeks you turned around.

Without a word, you stomped towards the door and once out of his sight, Taehyung listened to a bit of rustling, the door opening to the dorm and soon a violent slam behind it. The dorm was silent now, as he seemed to have all his strength zapped from him as he fell back onto the couch and cradled his face. Pushing his large hand over his eyes as he bit his lip, finally, a different feeling besides anger grew in his chest. It was disgusting, cold, harsh. All because he just forced his one heaven out of his home. Part of him wished you just didn’t listen.

XXX

Now, as 7 PM rolls around, Taehyung collapsed onto the practice room floor. Exhausted both mentally and physically he huffed and gasped air. Sweat coated his forehead and ran down his neck and chest. His thin white practice shirt patchy with his salty sweat.

Taehyung hasn’t reached out to you all day, no surprise there. You also hadn’t attempted to contact him, not that he even knew if he’d answer you. He was still frustrated, but more at himself now. When he finally picked himself up to go to the dance studio where half of his team was, he apologized for his behavior, despite him still being in a rotten mood. Yet, when Jimin asked if you stopped by, Taehyung didn’t dignify him with an answer.

He did his work the best his mood would allow, even when the headcount was 7. Soon, the boys cleared out one by one, the last to leave was Hoseok after being peeled away from Taehyung to breath by Jimin. So, Taehyung’s been in this room for hours, just being by himself.

He picked himself off the floor and moved to the door that leads to the empty halls as he moved to the window to see the outside world. Snow blew in the grey and still darks the sky. It was still colder than ever and part of him couldn’t help but wonder if you were still working. It was an unconscious thought that wouldn’t leave his head.

Your coworkers and boss were fairly understanding that you lived a decent distance from your job. If the weather was too bad, surely they’d let you off early to get home safe, right? Surely that was the case, but the unpleasant bubbling in his stomach wouldn’t let him stop thinking about it. He felt like he wanted to get sick. Still, though, he didn’t contact you. He walked back into the room and sat against the wall, taking his tall water bottle and taking a hefty swig of water that eased his parched throat.

More time ticked by with him just sitting, staring and thinking. Time passed by too quickly, as his phone buzzed with a call. He nearly toppled over to reach it, despite it being right next to him. His heart almost felt sad when he didn’t see your name over the screen, but Namjoon’s. He picked the call up nonetheless.

“Hey,” he started off.

“Are you planning to come home any time soon?” The leader asked. It was quiet in whatever room he was in, maybe he was at Rkive instead. “Jimin texted me, said you hadn’t come back yet.”

“I’ll be home soon.”

“Hurry up, the weather’s only going to get worse.” Why did his mind keep going back to you? Taehyung heard Namjoon’s phone beep with a notification. “Hold on,” he said as he puled the phone from his ear for a moment to read yet another texts from Jimin. “Hey,” he started, “have you really not talked to Y/n this afternoon?”

“No,” he curtly replied. He stopped a moment, the feeling in his stomach rising up again. “Why?” He timidly added on before the conversation was lost.

“Jimin said she sent a message to him saying she couldn’t make it home tonight.” Taehyung’s ears perked.

“Is she staying at work?”

“No, she’s not there. She left early.” Taehyung needed to call Jimin.

“I’m hanging up.” Namjoon didn’t get a word of protest out before he hung up, scrolled through his contacts and immediately dialed Jimin. The older man quickly picked up before Taehyung was bombarding him with questions. “Where is she?”

“She?” Jimin asked.

“Y/n!”

“She told me her car broke down, so she can’t make it home. I offered to pick her up, but she wouldn’t tell me where she was, so unless she’s nearly a motel or something, she’s probably staying in her car until the weather dies down.”

“That’s crazy! She can’t do that, it’s fucking freezing outside!” Taehyung was off the dance practice floor and running around, gathering his things like a crazy man. Stuffing his bottle into his drawstring back, pulling on his coat and hat before running out of the room and shutting the lights off. “I’m going to find her,” he said before he dropped the call.

Sick. He felt like he was going to be sick. He was going to be sick. He stopped outside the building to promptly vomit into the fresh pile of unshoveled snow. His throat burned as did his nose, while the wind pushed against his cheeks. He held his stomach as he finally felt all the irritation from today vanish. Funny, the person who wanted to help him, who he shunned away this morning, is the same person who made his rotten, no good mood disappear and he didn’t have a clue if you’d answer his phone call or not.

Naturally, when he tried, you didn’t. The first two time, it went to voice mail, the third you just declined his call. He had only himself to blame, it was his fault. He tucked his phone away and took off down the streets.

It was cold and icy and wet and slushy but he knew the route you always took to get to work and back. He started there. Walking down the snowy roads, he soon found himself in the dark with the lamps above his head his own guiding lights beside the occasional passing car. He was being reckless, he knew that.

It was already past 8 when he finally got a glimpse of your car. Layered in a thin coat of snow that blew and wisped in the air. He ran to the car side, looking in the windows. You were in the back seats, knees curled up to your chest, shoes, pants, and coat on with a beanie Tae bought you for your last birthday. He knocked on the window, startling you as you seemed to gasp. You were quick to crawl over and unlock the door, making him climb in in record time.

The winter breeze followed him in the car, making you shiver as he shut the door and relocked it. It wasn’t much warmer in the car than it was outside. It was still cold and anything idea of taking off a single layer of clothes was a ridiculous one.

For a while, no one spoke. You sat on your end of the seat, while Taehyung stuck to his. His whole goal was to come to see you, find you and make sure you were safe. You were, to an extent, but he didn’t know what do to now. Glancing at you, you had put your phone on the seat between you two and wrapped your arms around your knees, your chin resting there. You looked so forlorn.

Did he put that look on your face? A punch of guilt hit him as he held his stomach, the awful taste of his earlier vomit still haunting his tongue. You noticed him clutch his gut as he bit his tongue, a habit he did when he stomach hurt.

“Are you sick?” You muttered to him, startling him. He wanted to weep if he was being honest. With how emotionally charged he’s been all day, it wouldn’t really be out of place. Even when you’re hurt, you noticed something about him.

Taehyung twisted his body to lean his back against the door and propped one foot onto the seat of the car. He grabbed your arm and tugged you over to him so that your side was pushed to his chest. He put his leg in front of your, over your lap and hooked it under the foot behind you. His arms made your shoulder push into space under his shoulder and he pushed your head under his chin. He shook, not because he was cold, but he was scared. He was sad.

After being forced to his chest, you placed your hands on his stomach, thumbing over it slightly as he breathed quick uneven gulps. Taehyung cried while he held you. The overwhelming guilt in his gut was eating him alive, he couldn’t stand it anymore. He just wanted to smile with you again. He didn’t want to be mad anymore.

“I’m sorry,” he spoke with broken, weeping breaths into your hair. He pushed his face into your hair as he held you tighter, bringing you as close he possibly could. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry,” he repeated like a mantra. Like a pleading pray. Like his last hope. “Don’t listen. This morning, don’t listen to me. I’m sorry, please, just don’t- I’m sorry!” He cried as he trembled horribly. Even with his words of apology, he couldn’t feel better. Nothing was relieving the pain in his heart, his head, his thoughts.

Nothing seemed good enough to him.

“It’s alright,” you said back to him. Why did those two words being such relieve to him? “I was in the wrong too. It takes two people to fight, it’s not just one person's fault.” He just shook his head. He felt like it was all his fault, he couldn’t see where you were in the wrong for wanting to help him. “Don’t beat yourself up over it. It’s clear you really mean your apology, so just let it go.”

“I can’t,” he whimpered.

“Yes, you can.” You pushed away from him just enough to looked at him, taking his face in your hands. His eyes kept leaking crystal tears as his lips quivered. His face was warm as he kept his arms laced behind your back. “You can let it go,” you softly told him as you smiled. He got to see you smile again, to him- at him- who hurt you.

His vision of your smile blurred to the point he had to blink out more tears just to see your face clearly until more tears bubbled up and blocked his vision again and again. You chuckled at his unceasing tears. Thumbing them away, “why are you still crying, silly?” You return of nicknames only made his tears fall faster.

The pain was gone and all that was left was a tightness over his chest. He could only think of one remedy that could quell this new feeling. He scanned your face, as you kept talking to him- soothing him. He couldn’t focus on your voice, just the movement of your lips that he watched so diligently.

Taehyung was gentle in the action of moving down to capture your lips between his own. Pushing against you only slightly, and with more seconds that passed, he started to move more desperately. Molding your lips against his in movements he hadn’t imagined with you before and tugging your bottom lip between his teeth before releasing it to feel your lips more. You never once pushed him away, why not he didn’t know- but he couldn’t be bothered. His hand moved to the back of your head, keeping you held against him as he felt like he couldn’t stop.

He breathed against you, whimpering when you pulled away only to push himself towards you for more. The breaths he took of your air were something that made him think that he’d stop living if he stopped kissing you. He felt you grab onto the collar of his coat before he literally pulled himself away from you. Moving his lips to settle on your forehead as he felt your harsh breath fan onto his neck. His body felt like it was ignited.

He stared blankly behind you and out the window of the opposite door, watching the snow fall. It was so warm, it was like they weren’t in a cold, broken down car at all.

“I want to do that again,” he all but whispered against your skin. He moved to look at your again, forehead against yours as he looked at your kiss bitten lips. “I want to kiss you more,” he breathed. “Please, Y/n, can I-”

“You may,” you answered. The red across your cheeks no longer results of the dropped temperature in the car. He smiled, for the first time that entire day as he happily pushed his lips back over yours, holding you to his chest where he was content to stay. He doesn’t know how long he spent with you, just sitting in the privacy of your winter snowed car kissing you, but it didn’t feel like long enough.

As the night drew on, you fell asleep on his chest as he sat lazily against the door with one hand patting your back as he finally decided to reply to the multitude of texts he received. It was 10PM now. Sending his members a message in the group chat that they were all panicking in, he told them they’d both be at the dorms tomorrow.

The temperament from his head was gone, no longer was he plagued with worry, or anger or annoyance. The taste of you on his tongue washed it all away as he watched you sleep soundly. It wasn’t cold with you two together. He smiled as he was eager to take more than one picture of your sleeping face and a fuller one with you sleeping on his chest as he took an aerial shot. Setting the photo as he phone background he chuckled before he locked his phone, pocketed it and settled to wrapped both arms around you and get some sleep himself.

He’d talk more tomorrow, and be sure to tell the boys to rightfully keep their touching to a minimum. Taehyung doesn’t like sharing things that are his.

21 Questions

Tagged by the wonderful @aworldoffandoms @queen-among-writers @elbenmond @eadanga @brchoicesbr and @onesuntowngirl! You guys are amazing 💗

Rules: Answer 21 questions and then tag 21 people who you want to get to know better. (I only see 20... someone must have removed one along the way)

Nickname: Max, Maxwell and Splunker in high school. Don’t ask 🙄😆

Zodiac: Capricorn! The Cap theme is strong heh

Height: 5'10/11ish

Last movie I saw: Bird Box. Yep. Finally decided to see what all the hype was about. The Haunting of Hill House is way better.

Last thing googled: Um… I think lyrics for my last fic post? Oh no! It was HTML codes… @coldcollectornight08 😏

Favorite musician: Impossible for me to answer. I like an insane amount of music and have a ridiculous library to prove it. Hard pass lol.

Song stuck on my head: Girls Like You – Maroon5. I’ve been listening to a lot of stuff but that one must have played recently and held on. O_o

Other blogs: Just this one and the @chrispowellappreciation blog 😁

Do I get asks?: Sometimes. Usually its about Chris Powell, The Freshman Chronicles, or other Choices related stuffs… today I got quite a few wishing me a happy birthday 💖

Following: Uh… I don’t remember where to see that lmao. *searches and fails* wtf…

Amount of sleep: I often refer to myself as a vampire also. @kennaxval gives me the “dad talk” often because I don’t sleep much thanks to genetics and life events that decided to alter my schedule. On a good day 4-6 hours, on an average day 2-3. Yeeeeeah… I need more haha.

Lucky number: Um, I don’t really have a lot of luck hahahahaha… but I think 7 is pretty, and 5 and 2 are great mathematically.

What I’m wearing: Dude, if I’m at home… its all about comfort. Hell its usually about comfort when I’m not too. But uh, at home I tend to wear mostly fuzzy PJ pants, sleep shorts, leggings and whatever top type to keep me comfortable. 🤷‍♀️

Dream Job: Hmm. I had plans to start my own animation company when I was younger. I love anything to do with video games, art (all kinds), animals and reading/writing… probably should have been a book editor or architect.

Dream Trip: Japan. 🗾 But also many, many other places… Japan is a “need to” though. Germany would be great - I have a lot of family there I’ve never met.

Favorite food: If were talking generally, not like a specific place… tacos. Yeah, I think tacos…🌮

Play any instruments: I taught myself how to play some piano when I was a kid, and had a bass guitar that I didn’t get super far with… but that’s it. Always wanted to learn the violin. 🎻

Language: First language - English, but I took German and Japanese in high school and college, so I can sometimes keep up okay depending on the speaker/subject.

Random fact: Hmm… this could go so many ways lol. Some quick ones are, I’m a pretty good gamer - video games (first person shooters) especially. I’ve drawn since I could hold a pencil/crayon. I have a birthmark that looks like the Disney castle (for reals) and I’m just about impossible to scare. Everyone who tries to is always disappointed when it fails lol.

Describe yourself as an aesthetic things:

This was kinda hard...

Tagging a few who I think might want to do this... if they haven't already haha (I’m usually one of the last ones it seems). Please feel free to ignore or join in even if you're not listed. :)

Hi there! I'm an aspiring game creator - I was just wondering if you had any advice for someone starting out? I'm a freshman CS student so I have a little coding experience, but I'm not sure it's enough yet and I have no idea where to begin learning digital art. (Also, how in the world did you get so good at pixel art?? Your work looks great!)

Sorry it took me so long to respond to this! My advice is to jump in with a small project, regardless of how much or little experience you have. Find a language or an engine that suits you (GameMaker: Studio is pretty quick to get going with but may not suit every need) and start working on small projects. Start with small tutorials (for GM:S, Shaun Spalding has amazing tutorials on youtube) and work on small projects. I basically jumped right into Whimp the Bold when I started, and while I don’t regret that I’ve basically had to rewrite and redraw everything at least once, so getting comfortable first will certainly minimize that. I also started as a freshman CS student, so we’re probably on similar footing. Every language has a forum that you should scour for answers and then not be afraid to post on.

As for pixel art I basically just went for it. I started with GraphicsGale but now I swear by Aseprite. I posted a lot on the Pixel Joint WIP forums which is very helpful, read lots of tutorial and looked at lots of work I thought was great. If I had to give more specific tips, they would have to be these:

1.) Start small, keep sprites around 32x32 to start, 64x64 at an absolute max

2.) Don’t be afraid to keep your palette small and diverse. A diverse palette can sell a sprite more than trying to pick the most realistic colors (there are lots of great palettes to pick from already assembled). There are also tons of tutorials that teach you the basics of things like hue shifting that are important.

3.) This is more abstract and maybe advanced, but there was one major realization that I think helped me improve drastically: Pixel art, in my opinion, is all about making the viewer interpret more detail than is actually there. Some things should be left out. Sometimes one pixel implies a whole curvature and form. This article (ignore the title) makes some really great points, with examples, of what makes good pixel art so good: http://www.dinofarmgames.com/a-pixel-artist-renounces-pixel-art/

4.) Read tutorials (http://pixeljoint.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11299) and get feedback on the Pixel Joint forum. Tumblr is great for sharing progress, but there are some talented artists on PJ who not only give feedback but will make edits of your sprite to help you.

I hope I’ve been some help, thank you for your kind words! Good luck!

Jane woke up in an all too familiar place. Her hair was long and she was in the PJ’s she went to sleep in. She looked around the white room with drawings on the wall as she swung her feet off to the side of the bed. Jane walked over to the door. Her hand reached for the knob but stopped; hovering over it. No, she thought. It couldn’t be unlocked. She places her hand on the knob and twists. Her eyes widen when the door opens with ease.

She walked down the halls, pass surveillance cameras, guards and doctors. It was as if she wasn’t even there to them. She stopped in front of a nurse and went to grab her hair, nothing. Her hand simply went through the blonde locks. Out of the rather quiet corridor, there was a scream that shattered through both dream and reality dimensions. Jane follows doctors and nurses closely as they lead her to the sound. They stop and turn into a room where a child is hooked up to a machine that gave her the chills.

The child put their hand up to the doctor in a pathetic and pleading way. Jane couldn’t understand what they would want with this child, who seemed on the verge of dying any moment. Two doctors argued in the corner, she could barely make out what they were saying, but unfortunately, couldn’t comprehend the half she did hear.

“Please,” she heard. She looked back at the child, who had a bloody nose, tears in their eyes and was now staring directly at her.

“What?” Jane asked, surprised and scared at the same time.

“Help me,” The child begged before letting out another horrible scream, that made Jane and the doctors grab their ears. It didn’t seem to stop; the screaming only turned into what sounded like a siren, that lead to a big flash of light and energy. Jane screamed. Jane screamed so loud, she woke herself up. Her scream was so loud, that it startled Hopper from his slumber and he came bursting into the room.

“What happened?” he asked urgently. “What happened? Are you okay?”

She couldn’t say anything to him though. All she could do was stare at Jim with her big wide eyes and try to catch her breath. Tears started to fog her vision. Hopper’s expression softened as he rushed to her side to hold her. “Its okay babygirl.” He pulled her in tight to his chest, letting her cry into his sweater. “It’s okay. I’ve gotcha now. Nothing’s gonna hurt you.”

Hoppers eyes dodged around the room. He was a paranoid man, but with good reasoning. His eyes caught a glimpse of the clock that read 4:25am. He sighed, knowing that he wasn’t going to get anymore sleep for the night.

Steve crunched on a piece of toast with jam smeared across it, as he examined Dustin sleeping; who was spread out in the strangest way. He kicked the frame, making the whole bed vibrate. However, Dustin didn’t budge. Steve noticed Dustin’s ankle peaking out from under the covers and grabbed, giving his leg a few shakes like it was a heavy rope.

“Hey. rise and shine.” Dustin groaned and pulled the covers over his head. Steve rolled his eyes. “Come on, dude. Ya gotta get ready for school.”

“I mop blowing.” Steve scrunched up his face. Dustin was too muffled to understand anything he was saying. Steve sighed, tired of playing this game. “I’m sorry what was that? I couldn’t hear you,” he said, yanking the blanket off of Dustin’s body. Dustin eyes shot open and immediately went in search for Steve. “I said, I’m not going.”

“Why?”

“Because I’m not going.”

Steve looked up at a corner of the guest room, pretending as though he was debating something in his head.

“No, yeah,” He said, nodding his head at Dustin. “That is a shitty excuse.”

He took another bite of his toast as he watched the young teen boy flop over onto his stomach.

“Why are you being like this?” Dustin asked, irritated Steve wouldn’t let him sleep.

“Because one week of school is hard enough to catch up on. And flunking out is unfortunately not an option for you, Dust.” Steve popped the last bite of toast into his mouth, wiping the crumbs off of his hands onto the old pair of sweatpants he was wearing. “Plus the sooner you get back to a normal life, the sooner you’ll feel better.”

Dustin whined into his pillow. “You’re a dick, Steve.”

“Yeah, but I’m right. Get up.”

Dustin swung his legs to the side of the bed. His eyes fell closed and his head felt heavy. He really wasn’t a morning person, and this Monday morning he particularly hated more than the others. He hopped up onto his feet, taking a moment to steady himself. Steve watched the whole time.

“One foot after the other,” Steve encouraged.

“Yeah yeah yeah,” Dustin told him, dragging himself to the bathroom.

“Here’s five bucks for lunch,” Steve said, handing Dustin the money. “Get whatever you want. Keep the change.”

“Thanks,” Dustin replied, shoving the money into his pocket.

“I’ve got practice today, so see if you can go to Mike’s house after school. I’ll pick you up there afterwards.”

“Okay,” Dustin said. Normally he’d poke fun at Steve, saying he only wants him to go there on the off chance he runs into Nancy, but he wasn’t in the mood for it. Steve was surprised by this too.

“Okay,” Steve replied. Dustin hopped out of Steve’s car.

“Hey Dustin!” He called out before Dustin closed the door all the way. He bent down and poked his head in. “If anyone gives you a hard time, let me know. I’ll hang them on the flag pole by their underwear.”

Dustin stared at Steve for a moment. He couldn’t tell if he was serious or not. He decided not to question it. “Okay, Steve,” he said calmly and closed the passenger door.

She pulled her books close to her chest. She had never had so many eyes on her at once and it made her extremely uncomfortable. People whispered to one another as they stared and it made Jackie anxious. Did they remember her? What were they saying about her? She wasn’t wearing anything out of the ordinary; her army green parka with a black turtleneck underneath, as well as combat boots and light washed mom jeans. Her hair was pretty tamed today too, so it couldn’t be her appearance. It all seemed to check out. There were a few snickers that made their way to her ear. She hurried her pace to where her assigned locker was.

Jackie let out a sigh of relief when she found her locker with ten minutes to spare before class. She entered the code to the lock and yanked down. Nothing happened. You’ve got to be kidding me, she thought. She entered it again, paying extra attention to her turns and yanked. Again, nothing. She tousled her hair to the left side of her face and tried again, this time yanking harder. The boy standing next to her noticed her struggling.

“You have to push up, then pull down with that one,” he told her. She gave it a try. The lock unhinged from its state and opened up the locker. “That one was mine last year,” He adds.

“Guess I’m lucky you were standing by,” she said with a smile. “Thank you.”

He gave her a nod with a smile back. She took off her jacket and hung it up on the hook of the-

“You know, I’m sorry, but you look so familiar. Are you new or have we met?” She looked from behind the locker’s door. He was looking at her with eyes that were eager for an answer. “I don’t know. Maybe. I used to live here a while ago. I just moved back.”

His eyes widened. “Wait. Jacqueline? Jackie Henderson?”

She looked to the side of her. People were still staring at whispering. They clearly remembered her. “Yeah.”

“Dustin’s older sister.”

She looked at him confused. “yeah,” She answered.

He let out a chuckle put his hand on his chest. “Jonathan Byers,” he re-introduced himself to his old friend. It had been years since the two had seen each other, but this was the first face today she was actually excited to see. She threw her arms around his neck, happy to be reunited with her best friend. “Jonathan!”

He let out a huff when her body slammed into his, but he didn’t mind her excitement. He honestly thought he’d never see the day when she’d come back to Hawkins. “It’s good to see you,” he told her, wrapping his arm around her back.

She stepped back, with the first genuine smile she’s had in awhile. “You got so tall!”

Jonathan laughed. “The wonders of puberty.”

She giggled. They stared at each other in silence, but it wasn’t a strange, awkward one. It was pleasant and comfortable one that was shared between two people, who were content enough with the company of one another. That was until the bell rang, indicating the start of the day.

“Shit,” Jonathan muttered. “I have to go. Meet me in the cafeteria for lunch though.”

Her heart fluttered at the thought. “Okay,” she said, as calmly as she could. As far back as she could recall, Jackie had always had a small crush on Jonathan, and seeing the man he grew to be made that feeling come out of hiding.

“I’ll see you then!” And with that, he hurried to first period, leaving her weak in the knees. It wasn’t until he had vanished that she realized she should’ve asked him to help her find her first period. Now she wasn’t only going to be the newbie, but tardy as well. What a great first impression.

The boys and Max watched as Dustin pushed the food on his tray back and forth with his fork. Will took a bite of his pb and j as he gave a look to Mike that asked, “Should we do something?” Mike shrugged and averted his attention back to Dustin. “Dustin?”

He didn’t respond; he just absent mindedly continued to play with his food.

“Dustin,” Mike tried again and Dustin looked up to find his friends all staring at him.

“Sorry,” he said with a smile. “What were we talking about?”

“We weren’t,” Max told him.

“Are you okay?” Mike continued.

Dustin thought about laughing it off but his friends knew him too well. So he came up with the best answer he could give them. “I’m going to be.”

His friends smiled at him.

“That’s good,” Will told him.

“Max and I are going to the arcade after school,” Lucas told the table.”We’re gonna try and knock out the top score on Galaga.”

“I’m in!” Will chimed.

Mike turned to Dustin. “Are you up for it?”

Dustin nodded with a smile. This must have been what Steve meant.

Jackie scanned the cafeteria for Jonathan. It was weird having to be in such a crowded place for lunch. In middle school, Jonathan and Jackie would always find themselves in the library or track field during lunch. She smiled when she saw a hand go up, waving her down. She weaved through the maze of lunch tables, until she found the empty seat across from Jonathan.

“You survived!” He exclaimed.

“Yeah, barely,” she said pulling the chair out.

“So, how’s Dustin holding up?”

She let out a sigh. “I don’t know. He hasn’t been home.”

Jonathan gave her a confused look. Great, now she would have to explain. “Dustin wasn’t exactly thrilled to see me, so he decided he was going to stay with his friend, Steve.”

“Harrington?”

“The one and only,” she said sarcastically with a forced smile. Honestly, she was completely heartbroken by the fact her brother refused to give her the time of day, but she tried to understand.

“I’m sorry,” Jonathan said sincerely. “I’m sorry about everything.”

Jackie waved it away, along with the tears that were threatening to leave her eyes. “Lets not dwell on it. How’s Will and your mom? I’ve missed the Byer’s house.”

He smiled. “They’re good. We had a rough couple years, but things are finally settling down.”

Her eyebrows furrowed. “What happened?”

“Uh,” Jonathan began but stopped and laughed nervously.

Jackie smiled. “What is it?”

He shook his head. “It’s just absolutely insane.”

Jackie leaned forward eagerly. “Try me,” she said with giggle.

“Its better you hear it from the source, regardless.” He let out a sigh.

“Alright go head,” She insisted.

“Will went missing about a year and a half ago.”

Her face fell, “No shit.”

Jonathan nodded. “Yeah. About two weeks after my mom put out a missing persons report, a young boy’s body was found in the lake by our house.”

Jackie’s eyes widened. “Oh my god. Poor Joyce.”

“Oh, no. My mom knew it wasn’t him.” He went to take a mouthful of green beans, but paused. “I mean, it was him, but it wasn’t. It was fake. It was weird; we had a funeral and everything. But mom never believed Will was dead.”

Jackie scrunched up her face, and her expression made Jonathan laugh. Jonathan reached for his camera, that hung around his neck. Jackie’s hands instinctively went up to cover her face. “Oh come on! that would’ve been a great shot!” Jonathan teased.

“Geez, Jonathan. Not right now. I look like shit.”

“Just one,” Jonathan begged. “I haven’t seen you in forever. Let me get one snap.”

She hesitated, but brought her hands down to expose her face.

“And you look great,” he said, adjusting the focus.

Jackie smiled, hoping he couldn’t notice the change in color of her cheeks. The camera made a small click. Jonathan smiled. “It’s a good one.”

Jackie shrugged, noticing that there were a few more eyes on her than there were before.

“Anyway,” Jonathan continued. “We ended up finding Will alive, but he was sick. No one knew what was wrong with him. He just recently got better.”

“That doesn’t make any sense.”

Jonathan took another mouthful of green beans. “I told you it’s a wild story.”

“Where did you guys find him?”

Jonathan continued to chew his food thoroughly before swallowing it. “I can’t tell you that,” Jonathan said, wiping his mouth on a napkin.

“Why?” Jackie asked.

“I just can’t, I’m sorry Jack.”

Jackie stared down at her sandwich, picking at the crust as she tried to come up with a reasonable solution. “Was he abducted?”

Jonathan laughed nervously. “Jackie-”

“I mean what else would describe the fake body?” She whispered.

“Jackie, I really can’t talk about this,” Jonathan pleaded with a smile, hoping she would drop the subject. He sounded irritated with her, which made Jackie anxious.

“Okay,” she replied, leaning back into her chair. She looked at the lunch she had packed herself and compared it to the one Jonathan had. She notices the pudding packet sitting in a corner of his tray. Without asking, Jackie swaps it out for her bag of chips. Jonathan watches her and laughs.

“Still have that sweet tooth,” he chuckled. “Surprised it hasn’t fell out yet.”

Smiling, she hummed at him, glad he was still okay with her stealing his dessert.

“You haven’t changed a bit, Henderson.”

“Neither have you, Byers,” she said licking the tin cover.

“Hey stranger!” She felt a delicate touch on her shoulders. Jackie looked up to find Nancy Wheeler gleaming at her and bending down for a hug.

“Hey!” she replied, she embraced her back. Nancy and her were never best friends, but enjoyed each other’s company and used to occasionally work babysitting gigs together.

“Your hair has gotten so long!” Nancy declared.

“And you cut yours,” Jackie replied.

Nancy smiled as she bent over and kissed Jonathan on the cheek, sitting in the empty seat next to him and placing her hand in his. Jackie noticed this, and it made her heart drop into her stomach. Were they dating? They had to be by the way they were looking at each other. Jackie swallowed the lump building up in her throat as she glanced around the room. The whole lunch room was now staring her down. What were their problems? Losing her appetite, she no longer felt comfortable sitting in the cafeteria.

“I just remembered,” she stated. “Mr. Sidman wanted me to stop by and grab make up work for the semester,” she lied.

“Oh! I have him too,” Nancy told her. “If you need help, I’m totally available.”

“That’s okay,” Jackie said with a smile and swung her backpack over her shoulder and made a b-line for the exit. She hurried into the west wing’s girls bathroom which she had passed multiple times already that day; She quickly checked all the stalls before slamming her backpack against a door to one and letting out a frustrated yell. She was so embarrassed. What made her think that she would even still have a chance with Jonathan? What made her think no one would remember her or that anything would be normal about coming home after being away for so long? All she wanted was to be invisible and she was front center stage.

“Why the hell am I here?” she asked herself, leaning over a sink.

“That’s a good question,” She heard come from behind her. She rolled her eyes. Jackie knew this voice. She straightened herself up and turned around to find three girls looking her up and down. “Why are you back from the grave, little orphan Annie?”

Jackie faked a smile. “Carol, unpleasant as always.” She looked over at the two girls behind her. “Nicole, Beverly, still Carol’s little yappy dog minions I see.”

“Bite me, Henderson,” Beverly hissed, making Jackie scoff.

“I almost didn’t believe it when Tommy told me he saw you talking to Byers kid this morning,” Carol said, “I mean it would make sense, he is related to zombie boy, so you guys would have a lot in common. But I told Tommy he was just seeing things.” Jackie clenched her jaws at the way she spoke about Jonathan and Will. “But alas, here we are. Tell me, Jacqueline, what did you do for them to let you out of the nut house. Did you blow one of the psychiatrists.”

Jackie shook her head. ��You have no idea what you’re even talking about, Carol.”

“Oh, well I know your Daddy must be so happy to have his little girl back. Where is he anyway?” Carol’s words came at her like bullets and all Jackie had to protect herself with was a knife. She quickly grabbed her bag and pushed pass the three girls. “See you tomorrow Annie!” Carol yelled out to her.

Jackie fiercely wiped the tears from her eyes. Coming home was definitely a mistake. Not even her brother wanted her here. Jackie was so caught up in her own thoughts that she didn’t notice it when she bumped into someone.

“Woah,” the person let out, trying to get back their balance, his friends laughing at his reaction.

“Sorry,” she muttered to them.

“Jackie?” She jumped hearing her name being called. She looked up at Steve who looked concerned.

“Hi,” she said with a smile, failing miserably at an attempt to hide her emotions.

“Are you okay?”

“Yeah, I’m fine,” She said going around him and the two other students. “Sorry for bumping you.”

Jackie was focused on making it to the school’s exit, so she didn’t pay attention when Steve called out for her. She pushed open the doors and was threatened by the chilly Indiana winter’s wind. Her parka was in her locker still, but she wasn’t going back inside that building. She just picked up her pace.

She heard the set of doors behind her open again. “Jackie! Wait!”

“I’m fine, Steve,” She called back to him. “Really. I just want to be left alone.”

“Stop,” He told her grabbing her shoulder. “Just wait a second.”

She spun around on her heals. “What?” Her voice laced with irritation.

“What happened?” He asked.

“Nothing,” She told him.

“Really?” Steve asked, crossing his arms at her. “So you’re just hysterical for the sake of it?”

“I’m not hysterical,” She hissed back. “I just don’t like being treated like an exhibit at the zoo.”

When he didn’t reply with anything back, she let out a shaky sigh and started walking again. “I’m going home.”

“Let me drive you,” he insisted.

“No,” she said shutting down his offer.

“But it’s cold.” Jackie stopped in her tracks. He was right; she was already shivering and if she kept going in this weather, she was definitely going to get sick. She couldn’t afford that.

Jackie turned to look at Steve, who was dangling his keys on his finger.

“You’ll miss class,” she warned him.

“They won’t miss me,” he told her, already headed towards his car.

Hey guys! Hope you liked this chapter of Stranger places. I’m thinking of maybe starting to post two chapters a week. So if you want me to start posting more frequently, remember to like and comment what you think on each chapter. Otherwise, I may just start posting for myself. Until next time, keep it weird!
