Youngbin:
Partly anxious, partly thinks he knows what to do
He has a vague idea of what he should do, it presents itself to his decisions in the form of a solution but he isn't sure, is it what he is supposed to do? Suppose you have been asleep when he found out about your period, he will softly climb back into bed and wake you up. He'll hold you as and when you wake up and he finds it important to cuddle you all day long, even when he suggests that you watch something to distract yourself. He'll try to engage you in doing something like cooking as well but when he see that it doesn't work, he'll tell you that it's okay and pull you to the sofa where the two of you will spend the time either watching the tv or not but in each other's arms. You may go on a walk because he insists on getting fresh air and it's reliving, to feel the wind breeze through your hair, away from the growing stuffiness of staying indoors all day long.
Inseong:
''Oh, she must be in pain, what do I do?''
He may wake up because of your whimpers and heated body (you feel warm to the touch, much more than usual) so he wakes you up, giving you a detailed report of the blood stains and your probably high body temperature. He's freaking out which is cute before you sigh. The previous evening you felt your pms but when would it actually come? That was your question. Nevertheless, he leaves you to freshen up and takes the sheets for cleaning. He has some tricks up his sleeve; he knows that to do. When you come out, maybe hug him from the pain, his heart will squeeze like a towel filled with water, he'll press kisses on your face and give you gently words of support, ''You're doing so well. You want to lay down? I'll lay down with you, come.'' as he tugs you along. If you feel more active, he'll try his best to cook, as in, he'll give in his ultimate best. Extra effort so that you can eat food at home rather than from outside, it will taste good in the end because he would have followed the recipe and it's measurements to the t. Shining eyes should be following your movements when you taste his food, anxiously waiting for your response. Should you feed him, he'll melt, like a marshmallow. He loves you that much.
Jaeyoon:
Jaeyoon's a sweet heart
He'll ask you, ''Are you cramping?''. His voice is soft, almost down to a whisper. It draws you closer to him. You nod, pout whilst holding your lower tummy. You feel uncomfortable standing because of the pain, he knows it and draws you into his arms, holding you steady on your feet. He gives you little kisses on the cheek, teasing out giggles from you. He'll cook for you, maybe pancakes or avocado with fried eggs on toasted bread, whatever you want + as long as he is capable of making it, he may even surprise you! When you are eating, he'll give you company, his chin will rest in the palms of his hand and he'll give you this look where his eyes shine and the pads of his fingers drum on his cheek. He'll melt if you feed him, into a puddle his true form has been summoned. He'll make you smile, partly because of his cheeky jokes but also partly because of his own smile, lit cheeks that resemble a baking bun. He'll tell you not to apologise for the stained sheets, kissing your concern away. He'll join heads with you and figure out to do with it. The rest of the day, he'll spend it with you by taking you into his arms. Be prepared, fluff! passionate-driven! domestic husband! Jaeyoon is out to cuddle you!
Dawon I Lee Sanghyuk:
🥺🥺
He may wake up to your groans of pain, too disorientated at first to comprehend that you may be pms-ing so he'll go back to sleep. When he wakes up later on, the first thing he may say is, ''Shit.'', biting his lip but not yet thinking of a solution. He'll first check up on you, to see if you are still asleep or not. If you are, he'll let you you be and sit back with his mouth agape, wondering how this could happen. This may go on for some moments. He doesn't have even half the heart to wake up but if he has to, he will. When you curl up into a foetal ball, his heart will break. After you refresh, he'll rush to sort out a hot bag for you and maybe some tea and cuddle with you on the sofa till you begin to feel hungry (he may wait for when you are ready to make breakfast!). It's because he loves eating and so he'll love to see his significant other too. He knows that you enjoy what you are eating and that makes him happy, so he'll wait!
Rowoon I Kim Seokwoo:
Luxurious level Rowoon 💸💸💸
You may already be up when he wakes up. ''Oh!?!?'' is his voice when he looks at the lil' crime scene you left. You didn't stress about it okay maybe a little but decided to deal with it when he woke up. O-O is his facial expression. He can't believe his eyes. He's scared, he may never be able to un-see it again, ever. To bad for him, slightly better for you. You are already refreshed and not feeling to great, drained even before the day has begun but he's not asking anything, only how you are feeling. You settle in the seat beside him, pressing a kiss to his cheek, he greets you with a kiss back, discussing about your plans for the day. ''About the sheets'', ''It's okay'' he says, noticing your apologetic face, ''We'll throw them out'', ''Okay~ they are your sheets'' you laugh. Otherwise, if he wants to make love to you, your period may briefly hinder his thoughts but not by much, especially if you agree. He undress you in the shower and kiss you all over, to relieve the soreness of your body and fill you up. He would be okay to cock warm, to sit there with you on his lap and talk to you, giggle and laugh with you, occasionally cutting you off by giving you love-bites and sucking your nipples, nipping the area around them, if you find yourself comfortable with cock warming.
Zuho I Baek Juho:
Home-man Ju, never-leaving-his-cats Ju
But for you, it'll happen. You may have not brought pads or tampons with you because your schedule is hay-wire. If no and you have some then problem solved but if not, he'll leave you with a hot bag and run to the nearest store to buy you some pads. He'll hurry, knowing that you are in pain so he'll even say to his cats before he goes, ''Be good and take care of y/n for me okay?''. You have half a mind to chuckle at this adorable behaviour. In his pyjamas and slippers, he'll walk out, coming back with pads/tampons and food! Food! What's not there to love about this man? He'll bring your favourite snacks, putting them on a plate while you freshen up. If you borrow his clothes, you'll take his breath away. He'll put something on to watch or go out, like an amusement park or food stalls or wherever you would love to go. He wants you to feel better.
Yoo Taeyang:
Shocked or master level response
The first would be more appropriate for this man no? But I can't also help but think that he would see you in pain and move quickly. Without thinking of a plan or immediate solution, he would try to use what he has, a resourceful character is my point. He may rummage through the kitchen and medicine cabinets, standing there for two to three minutes, pondering over what he could use. He is quick to find a heat bag and warm it up, perhaps a wet towel that he thinks he will come back to and tablets for your pain. No doubt that his once blurry eyes and tired mind have disappeared to the back, your peacefulness of mind and sleep becomes his first priority. He takes you to the toilet and while you hazily strip off your clothes, he warms up the water and fills the tub with it. While you soak, cleaning yourself up, he lets you be, giving you the space you need to take a while and gather your peace of mind. There's a lot he would do for you. In the morning, he would cook for you and take you out. Later in the afternoon, you'll fall asleep together and in the evening, if you both are in the mood, he'll be willing to try and ease your cramps with releases. He's someone to be grateful for.
Hwiyoung I Kim Youngkyun:
Shy, to the bone
You knock on his door, ''Kyun?'', ''hm? You okay?'', he is curious. ''Yea, I'm going to the store and coming back.'', ''It's pitch black outside, I'll come with you.'', ''okay'', it's dangerous outside, anyone could be there. Just left the complex, he asks, ''What do you need?'', ''Tampons'', ''oh.'', he's flustered now. The tips of his ears turn pink and his cheeks- he can't resist them from going upwards. After scratching the tip of his ear, he asks, ''Does it hurt?'', ''hm, I can feel it, it's hurts a little but later it may hurt a lot.'', ''As in, unbearably?'', ''Yea and I think that I may have already leaked.''. ''Shit'' he murmurs, stopping in the middle of the sidewalk, ''If you want, you could go home and I could get them?'', he asks, in all seriousness. He doesn't contemplate that he's never done this before but he could, for you. ''It's okay, I think I can make it. Plus, you won't know what to get.'', ''Call me, ''Are you sure about this?'', ''Absolutely, I'll drop you off and then I'll pick them up, do you want something to eat?''. The endeavours make you smile, now you are at the front of his house, ''Anything is okay with me.'' to which he chuckles. He knows what you want, ''So some snacks?'', in a teasing manner. He moves closer to you. It's a pause from the outside world, cupping your face entirely in his hands, he kisses your cheek. You softly gasp, slipping into his grasp when he lets go. You could smell his shampoo and the way he lingered, he's already telling you, ''Go up, I'll come to you.'' having you shake you head and tell him, ''thank you.''. As he begins to walk, he resists turning back and pulling you into a kiss driven by heat-blinding passion.
I guarantee that the kiss doesn't happen for sometime but when it does, you end up making soft love under the covers. He starts with mapping out kisses along your body + he loves how you touch him when he kisses you.
Chani:
Loving and admirable
When he sees you in pain, he hurts too, expressed as a pout or frown, tugging your hand and asking if you are okay. He wants to make your pain go away. He may be doing some work on his laptop, he'll hold you in his arms with your head on his chest and you softly snoring away. It'll make him smile, after all you were woken up so early in the morning by your cramps, waking him up to a few hours later to find that you made breakfast. It depends on who wakes up, one or the other makes breakfast after a long competition of seeing who can sleep the longest. He feels grateful and he tells you that, before saying that you shouldn't have when you felt this much pain and that he was okay with eating outside food. You have to smile and place a finger to his mouth to prevent his nagging from chewing your ears off and give him a little kiss and then immediately pull him for cuddles. Complain about how you are in pain and he will melt like a lolly on a hot summer day and instantly cuddle you, hovering over your figure that he placed on the sofa and tease you, maybe by feeling your waist to your neck to a small make-out session. It'll be automatic for him to compliment you and shower you with love, easily embracing you and kissing you to tell you that he loves you.

LET ME KNOW IF YOU WANT TO BE TAGGED
Tumblr media
"Hey, Nikki, c'mon!" The sound of Fred shouting on the other side of the bathroom door pulls me to my feet, making me swing the door open and catch myself on the side of the doorway before I can face plant. 
His expression is neutral, but I see it in his eyes...he knows they're losing me. "Three more nights to go," he reminds me, "make it count." 
I wipe my mouth, following him down the hallway, catching a glimpse of Vivian talking to Izzy while Steven's got his arms around her hips, pulling her to sit in his lap and she does, patting at his arms while he rests his cheek against her back and closes his eyes to rest a second as her conversation with Izzy doesn't skip a beat. 
Maybe she's sleeping with all of them. 
Not like it matters at this point. 
We're over anyway and I'll probably be dead before either of us can even file. 
She looks like she's about to look at me but I make sure to cut away from looking at her to avoid being caught, grabbing my bass from the tech as Tommy starts in on the drums, the screams of our fans echoing backstage as Mick, Vince and I head under the stage, my fingers lightly brushing against her crucifix around my neck for a split second. 
I'd stolen it when I found it in Duff's bathroom...when people asked me, "dude, how'd you take that news? You kicked his ass, right? You showed that cheating bitch, right?" 
Well…
The Night Before
"Hey, Nikki, man, can you help us with this?" Slash asks me once I get my room's door open, and I raise my brows. 
"With what?" I reply, confused. 
He motions down the hall, and I peek my head out to see Steven and Duff trying to push a desk out of Steven's room.
"We're fucking with hotel. We need help getting the desk, chair, lamp, and night stand from Steven's room into the elevator before someone needs to use it." He explains. 
"So they can have a more comfortable ride." Stevie pipes with a grin. 
I've been locked in my room all day and I won't get to see these guys until the end of next month starting in a few days, so…
"Hell, yeah." I agree, stepping out of the hall. 
"Where's your clothes man?" I ask Duff when I get to him and Steven, helping them push the desk along the carpet, to the elevator. 
He's in his boxers and a pair of his cowboy boots, and he replies, "me and this girl got in an argument and she stole my clothes."
I can't help but laugh. 
Poor Duff, he's probably never dealt with crazy, vindictive, mind-screwing women before. 
We get the desk and chair into the elevator before the doors try to shut, signaling someone needing to use it, and I'm snatching Steven out of there before it goes down. 
Whoever the fuck uses it will probably shit a brick once they realize it's gonna be impossible to get inside without crawling over the desk. 
After that, we get the elevator back pretty quick and finish the job before pressing every button in the elevator to make a stop at every floor, just to make people in need of it wait longer. 
"What're you guys doing?" I hear Viv's voice and turn to see her standing in the hallway with her room door open. 
"None of your fucking business." I snap at her, just as the elevator dings and the doors open to reveal all the fucking furniture, Izzy, and a groupie. 
They're sitting on the desk as if it's no big deal, and Izzy hops off of it and helps his lady friend down, the two of them looking at me and the guys. 
"Good one." Izzy tells us, nodding to the elevator and I chuckle as he passes by, lightly patting at my shoulder, saying, "goodnight, man." 
"Children." I hear Vivian mumble, shutting her door behind her. 
"She's not feeling good today." Duff tells me, trying to get me to drop it before I even pick it up. 
I don't listen, stomping to her door and banging on it. 
She opens it, and I sneer down at her. 
"We're having fun, what the fuck makes you think you can come out and shit on it when nobody even wants you on this fucking tour to begin with?!" I bark at her. 
"Nikki, all I said--"
"--I know what you fucking said because you've been saying it the past six fucking years. We get it. I get it. So just fucking drop it and mind your own goddamn business!" 
She shuts the door in my face, making me kick the door, before taking a breath, and turning to see Steven, Slash, and Duff, trying not to be too uncomfortable. 
"You guys got any booze?" I ask, knowing they do. 
"Yeah, man." Slash nods, motioning me to Duff's room. 
He hands me a bottle of Jack and I start downing it with no hesitation, wrinkling my nose at it's peculiar taste--more peculiar than usual.
"It's half Jack, half Vodka." Slash explains and I wrinkle my nose, my throat on fire as I cough. 
"What the fuck?" I ask, my head swimming, and he shrugs. 
"We got bored and figured we'd try it." 
"Don't let Viv know. She'll pour it out." I mumble, wiping my mouth, sitting on the foot of Duff's bed as he and Steven join us. 
"I know you two have a lot going on but go a little easier on her, man." Slash says to me, next.
"Yeah, you guys are our friends so seeing you fight is weird." Steven adds. 
"Like watching parents try to kill each other in front of their kids." Duff states and I sigh. 
"I know you guys are friends with her but you don't see what she's really like." I insist. "She's fucking nuts." 
"Trust us, we know." Steven scoffs. 
"She's a sweet girl, she's just going through a lot." Duff interjects, grabbing the bottle of jack/vodka from me, taking a sip for himself. 
"She was a sweet girl." I argue calmly. "Breakups just fucking make people unrecognizable. I don't see the chick I proposed to. I see a wicked bitch from hell that possessed her and just uses her body as a disguise." I add. 
None of them say anything, because they can't argue it. 
They see how we treat each other. 
It's a given I'll be an asshole, but when someone like Vivian starts spewing venom, it's because she's lost their fucking mind.
"I think I'm gonna be sick." I grumble, feeling my stomach wrench before I'm stumbling to the bathroom, vomit spewing past my lips into the toilet, my hand grasping the edge of the counter to keep myself from falling forward, the sound of the clink of metal against the floor as I accidentally knock one of Duff's necklaces to the bathroom tile. 
Once I'm done puking, I take deep breaths, closing my eyes for a moment before flushing the toilet. 
I reach for the necklace to put it back on the counter, before I get a good look at it. 
It's a small, sparkling cross a little too dainty for Duff...my stomach drops, my mind going back to the night I first met Vivian, when I first saw it around her neck and sneered everytime I looked at it. 
How she took it off before she and I fooled around for the first time, and everytime after that, until we got married…
My blood runs cold, another wave of nausea hitting me, bile rushing up in my throat before I can stop it, splattering onto the floor.
Maybe I would've been prepared had Vince told me what was going on. He'd found out after Sparkie got blacked out on smack and told him what he had discovered about saint Viv. 
It felt like a twenty-five pound weight had busted my balls. I didn't have time to think about it much in the moment.
"Gross." Steven wrinkles his nose a little as he peeks in to check on me. "I'll call the cleaning people." He adds, shutting the door, and I look at the necklace one last time before tucking it into my pocket. I'll confront her with it, later. 
I get out of the bathroom, Duff, Slash and Steven all looking at me.
"Dude, you alright?" Duff asks, smoking a cigarette, and I nod. 
"Yeah. I just feel like shit." I reply, trying to mask the fact I just found out he's been fucking my wife. "I'm gonna go lay down for a few minutes and see if I don't feel a little better." I tell them, stepping to the door. 
"Alright, man." Slash replies. 
"See ya." I mumble as Steven adds, "feel better, Sixx!" 
I get to my room, slamming the door, pacing, throwing my empty bottle of Jack at the wall and watching the glass shatter, my fingers raking through my hair. 
How the fuck could Vivian do this to me? How could Duff? My band gave his band a shot--a good one. I thought he and I were friends. You don't fuck your friend's chick. 
Okay, I fucked Roxy but that was different, I was high. 
Duff isn't into hard drugs and Viv's sober so neither of them have an excuse for it. 
A pit grows in my chest as I think a little more.
What if they were messing around back when she posed for Playboy? Maybe that's why he went with her…or maybe they've been at it since before Vanity let it out that me and her were together…that would explain why Viv hid him from me for so long.
My nostrils flare at the thought. 
Who the fuck does she think she is?! Cheating on me?! Does she realize how many girls would love to be married to me and here she is with my own fucking buddy. Heartless cunt. And he's an ungrateful bastard. I gave his fucking band a shot at getting what they've been hungry for and this is how he repays me? Nailing my wife on the very tour I invited him to play on? 
I take heavy breaths before stepping to the phone, dialing Tansy's room number. 
She's supposed to be back by now from her little break, and when I hear her answer, I sigh in relief. 
"Hello?" 
"Hey, Tans, whatcha up to?" I ask, grin on my face, knowing exactly what she's about to be up to, if she isn't already.
Tansy and I were like arsenic and cyanide. She was like Vanity--without the batshit craziness, or the sex. We'd hang out and just spend hours getting high together. I was one of her best friends, so it should've been my job to protect her, but if that were the case, I would've been encouraging her to throw her smack and coke out, instead of always wanting to hang out just so we could get high together like it was a bonding experience or something. Yeah, seeing each other at their fucking shittiest really bonds people to one another, right. 
It was a punch in the stomach when I found out about all the hell she'd gone through for years, that made her want to get lost in drugs, and eventually made her want to get lost past the confines of this life. 
A majority of her friends were protective "manly" men who would fist fight a pole if need be, well, Steven, at least. 
We were supposed to protect her. 
And I know, "Well, you didn't know." 
We would've known, had we paid more attention, and I wasn't paying attention because I was like a woodpecker with its head in a branch, except my head was in a pile of smack.
I hang my head over the toilet, vomit pouring from my lips as my head reels with dizziness, my veins aching as Tansy rests against the bathtub, slobber rolling down her chin from being in the same position I'm in only a few seconds ago. 
Our burnt spoons and sharp smelling foils are left to the floor as we're taken over by a monster bigger than ourselves, the sound of Slash, Steven, Duff, and Vivian's laughter from the hallway creeping past my door, slipping under the bathroom's door, pushing through the smoke and mirrors, nearly shattering my high before it even has its full start.
The next night results in the same outcome, only this time, I've decided to pick myself up with help from my favorite smoke, except the hit from the crackpipe comes with the expected.
Sweat beads down my back as I shake, curled up in the bathtub with the shower's curtain pulled, hearing the footsteps of my room's intruder. 
"Nikki?" A familiar voice calls softly, but the demon in my ear overpowers my want to go to her. 
I curl further into myself, squeezing my eyes closed, my shaking hand gripping at the cross around my neck that belongs to her. 
"If you're real just make it go away." I'm saying before I can stop myself. "Help me cut this shit, and give me my wife back." 
I knew I hit rock bottom when I prayed to a God I didn't even believe in…and I guess, in the end, my prayer was answered, but fuck if I didn't get in my own way.
I finally coax myself out of the tub after a few more minutes, seeing the light is off in my room under the door, before I open the bathroom door, my hair standing on end, my bare, ragged feet moving as quietly as I can move them as I pad onto the carpet, stepping to the bed where a figure is laid out, the shine of red hair across a pillow radiating from the bathroom light drifting into the room. Peaceful, sleeping features show no threat, but something wicked is beating in my head as I slowly approach her, my boney knuckle rubbing at her cheek, slowly, opting a tired, soft moan to leave her, her body shifting before stilling. 
I know it's bullshit. It's a facade. I know she's waiting for me to fall out so she can leech off of me. 
Fucking witch. 
If I pass out, she'll strike, and I won't make it out alive. 
Her nails are clawing blood from my arms as she gasps out, kicking her feet when my hands lock around her throat, my eyes glossing over as she tries to scream out. 
Her hand bangs, hard, against the wall the bed is against, her hands trying to fight me off as tears roll down her cheeks, her face beginning to turn a deeper shade of red. 
"Nikki, what the--Nikki, what the fuck?!" I hear Fred's voice, but I hear it as if I'm under water, my focus captivated completely as my eyes burn into Vivian's before I'm being snatched off of her and thrown into the floor. 
She's a coughing, gagging, gasping, crying mess. 
"What the fuck, Nikki?!" Fred yells at me and I look at Vivian. 
It's as if I'm coming back to myself, the reality of what I just tried to do…
What the fuck, Nikki? You already fucking shot her, and now this? If you don't get your shit together you won't have a fucking wife to patch things up with!
What am I saying? I already don't. She's fucking Duff. 
She's legally married to me, but emotionally she's already been single for months, now.
I didn't strangle her because I was pissed over Duff. I strangled her because in my fucked up paranoia I was convinced she was going to kill me, first. 
The truth was she wasn't. Duff, on the other hand, definitely considered it once he found out. But I don't blame him for it, now.
The next night, I feel my lip curl as I spot greasy, unkept hair, and scabbed, yellow skin. 
Sparkie's smoking a cigarette, his arm around Tansy. 
Its fucking pathetic. 
He's contributing to her demise--if not the reason it kickstarted in the first place--and she still looks at him like he's the only dude on the fucking planet and she can't get enough. 
My mind drifts to what would happen if by freak chance Vivian did decide to try something with him. 
It makes my skin crawl to think of Vivian in the same position as Tansy: doped up, exhausted to the point she can't fight back when she's pimped out by him, worn down…
The mere idea of it makes bile rise to the back of my throat. 
The fact Tansy's gone through it only adds to my nausea. 
I hold it in and step past them, glaring at Sparkie. 
"Stay away from my fucking wife." I threaten him and he flinches a little. 
Pussy. 
I spot Axl shooting a death glare at him from the corner of my eye. 
He looks pissed as a hornet, his sharp jaw clenching and unclenching as Vince and Tommy walk past him to get ready to go on stage. 
I hear Skylar crying from the dressing room with Sharise--they came down a few nights ago. 
I look back to Axl, tension getting tighter and tighter in his body. 
All it takes is Sparkie clapping his hands one good, loud, time, just to see Tansy's jittering, withdrawal-beginning, body nearly jump out of it's own skin. 
This does it. 
Out of fucking nowhere Axl is tackling him like a linebacker, not giving the walking incarnate of an STD time to think before he's beating the shit--literal, shit--out of him, the putrid smell taking up space backstage, making me and the guys gag as Fred, Doc, and Izzy try to get the pissed redhead off the junkie.
I expect Tansy to be screaming or crying like usual when someone gives Sparkie what his punk-ass deserves, but she makes no protest to Axl. 
I immediately look away when Viv comes into the picture, a look of worry on her face as Axl yells: "Bitchy little princess, I'll give you a fucking reason to go fucking shoot up!" 
The smell of Sparkie's shit continues to permeate the area as Doc and Fred get him away from Axl. 
Tansy just stands still, her big, blue eyes blinking at Axl.
I meet Vivian's gaze, noticing the cake of makeup covering her neck, and a pit is dug into my stomach. 
Fuck. 
"Dude, you good?" Tommy asks me, and I nod. 
"Yeah, just grossed out." I mumble, seeing Izzy leaning against the wall, dry heaving from the smell as Viv and Duff coax Axl down the hall to their dressing room.
Me, the guys, Emi and Donna all get into position, and I try to shake off all the shit that's happened, because we need to have a kickass show. 
As soon as mine and Mick's cue hits, and I'm face-to-face with thousands of people who all want a piece of me, I can't control uneasiness of my stomach, and when I take a moment to grab a drink of water, my throat ignites when I down a gulp of vodka, instead. 
What the fuck? 
I figure it's set aside for Mick, and try not to let it happen again. 
Only I do. 
Repeatedly throughout the show.
And that on top of smack, on top of the Jack Tommy and I chug during part of the show, leaves me sloppy as hell and stumbling off stage come curtain call. 
I see two Duff's stomping over to me, looking the most mean I've seen him ever look, Vivian on his heels. 
"Hey, man, wha--" 
I don't have time to finish my question. 
He knocks the shit out of me in the blink of an eye, and I stumble back, not able to react in time before he's shoving through Fred and Doc, giving another punch to my cheek, but I strike back this time, twice, before he just starts waylaying me relentlessly, Vivian screaming, stupid enough to try to get between us before Izzy's yanking her away. 
I feel my skin split under the pressure of one of Duff's rings, my vision spotty before he's thrown back by Fred and Axl. 
"You mother fucker!" He screams at me viciously as Doc comes to my side. "You stay the fuck away from her, you understand me?!" 
"Duff, it was an accident!" Vivian cries out hoarsely. 
"Look at your fucking neck! How is that a fucking accident?!" He's so pissed he's nearly in tears, too, and I feel my heart pound as I see where the makeup has been smeared off of Vivian's neck, revealing dark bruises in the shape of my fingers. 
"He was high!" Vivian insists.
"He was high when he shot you, he was high when he proposed to another woman, he's high everytime he treats you like shit, he was high when he fucking tried to kill you last night…" Duff rambles off, his face bright red. "...Stop excusing his bullshit with 'he was high', he's not high--that's just who the fuck he is, now!" He shouts, her feelings hurt from the looks of her expression. 
"Come on over here and see who the fuck I am, now!" I can't help but to spit out, even though I'm in no position to win a fight. 
"No, no!" Fred scolds as he and Doc are in front of me while Steven and Axl stay with Duff, trying to calm him down. 
First Axl and Sparkie, now me and Duff, all in one night. 
I bet Fred and Doc regret bringing them on tour, too, because I sure as shit do. 
If I felt like arguing anymore I'd ask Duff how my balls taste since that's where Vivian's mouth spent a good amount of time the past six years...if I wanted them to know that I know about them, I'd say it. 
If I knew it would make a difference, I would. 
But I know it won't, so I keep my mouth shut.

Tw: toxic relationship / emotional manipulation at the end / non-con use of drugs.
Tumblr media
In the harsh forests of Siberia, there lays a forlorned man kneeling in the ground ; as he observed his sole friend being eaten by the serrated teeth of the snow.
He didn't know which is worse the icy winds that threatens to graze his skin, or the empty void that keeps on growing gradually to enrapture him in a spectral of sorrow; leaving him without a light and any shred of hope.
Not that it mattered anyways, Vladimir was born alone; lived his life alone and probably will die alone.
When the hamster drowned completely ; the man grumbled and stood up to make away to his estranged family whom visits him scarcely in his shack of solitude.
●◉◎◈◎◉●
" приве́т, брат. как дела? ", a familiar care-free voice echoed through the Siberian larch shack.
" Здравствуйте, младшая сестра.Я в поря́дке", replied Vladimir in a monotone tone.
A few minutes have passed, yet the situation kept on getting awkward between the estranged siblings. Until, Dunya abruptly disturbed the silence with her sugary voice.
" Brother, l may not visit you frequently. However, I fret alot about how negligent you've recently become not only toward us, but also toward yourself. So, I have an idea to remedy your desolation. ," the Belarusian suggeted awaiting the response of the reticent male.
"What that may be ? It won't work. No matter any attempt I've conducted to burn the memory. At best it haunts me, at worst, it depletes me.", came the cynical voice of the large man who is huddled beside the fireplace.
"Please understand that I give you my word that this time you'll- , she was cut off by Vladimir.
"No! You lack understandment. If you did understand me back then, why did abandon me? Now, don't try to manipulate me with your sugar-coated words,dear sister", his voice filled with loathe and disregard toward his traitor of a sister. Not that she was of his own blood, which proves his point people are discrenibly not to be trusted.
At one point, they'll take what they want from you; and then they will abandon you at any chance they get. He wont let it happen to him again. Never again.
As he ignored the wailing of his pathetic sister to stay and consider ; he left his shack and decided to go to the nearest town to meet one of the few people he came to trust. (Y/n).
His beloved snowflake.
His latest hope, that he'll make sure to persevere this time.
It's his turn to be selfish and take his reward for all the years of agony and loneliness.
●◉◎◈◎◉●
A jingle was heard notifying you that a customer came. Only to be pleasantly surprised, that it was the the russian regular customer; Vladimir.
Well,at first he intimidated you; with his structure,lack of expression,and his nihilistic attitude. With time, as you got to know him better he is such a fascinating and kind man despite the rumors spread about him.
The enormous brunette approached you with a stoic expression decorating his visage, however you knew better that he was glum.
"What seems to trouble you,Vlad? You appear to be out of it today, more than the usual?", you asked concerned about him; considering Vlad repress his emotion which isn't a healthy outlet as of you red about.
Another thing, he cherishes about you that your concerns and frets are genuine. Alongside, your intellect that sparked both his mind and heart alike.
" Нет, just stressed. I want to talk to you,if you're not busy.", he huffed as he inserted his large hands inside the pockets of his overcoat.
" No, not all. Considering I am about to close the shop now. I don't mind accompany you. Just give me a momento~ and I'll be ready.", as you left to close the shop; you didn't notice the ghost of a smile contorting through the face of the brunette russian.
●◉◎◈◎◉●
"So, what are up to,Vlady? and care to share why were you upset? I don't want to be pushy, but If you'd like to share then I am all ears", you remarked and poked the towering man inflicting a warm feeling inside his heart. Just like the sun he rarely saw.
Sighing, as he began to retell about what happened a month ago along with recent happenings.
The way, he spoke about his best friend passing hurt your heart- reflecting your true nature as an empath- and the cold anger of his when he spoke about his family.
You wondered what happened to represent such hate. No matter, what matters now is to bring Vladimir spirits up.
"Say, what would you like me to do to bring your hopes up? Anything you'd like!", as you encircled your arms around his waist or in your case below his stomach.
The warmth of your bodice and it softness clashed against his rough and cold ones made him realize, how much of an important factor you represent in his wretched life with his wretched family and wretched luck.
In addition, if anyone did what you did he will forcefully push them aside. But, you! you are his everything as much as he will be your everything soon enough.
Now, the door of opportunities had granted him this chance to enrapture you in his grasp forevermore; thus he will take it with an iron firm hands.
"да,please. Follow me to my lodge,маленький", offering his hands to you.
Grasping his hands, you began to walk aside him to his abode.
●◉◎◈◎◉●
Nothing,but the howling of the wind was heard ; as the both of you strolled toward his domicile. Vladimir reached his pockets to grab the keys and open the inky door.
"Such an interesting and intricate place you got,Vlad. Did you buy it?", stepping inside of the well-decorated abode. Said abode, was built upon black wood, and everything here are made of either wood or rarely metal.
Yet, it captured your interest as you are a fan of vintage architecture such as this.
"Glad you like it. However, I hadn't bought it. If, anything I built from scratch as I have an interest in building structures."
"My, that's amazing!,Vlad. You're such a talented man", you complimented his craftsmanship as you laid your hand at a woman in bridal clothes made from various type of wood.
Meanwhile, as you were immersed in the details of the house ; Vladimir brewed some tea for both him and his wife-to-be.
' It seems that you took my den to your liking. Good, adapt. Because, from on you'll be living here ;you'll become one with me and won't have the chance to leave me.'
" (Y/n)? May you come and chatter with me over a cup of tea?", Vladimir beckoned you as he sat in an umber chair; which is in front of a circular chocolate brown table.
"Sure thing.", trotting toward him with a sparkle of interest residing in your eyes. On the other hand, your guts is telling you otherwise. However, you ignored it. That was the last strike, before your fall down.
" Remember our first meeting? Nostalgic as it may be,but it always have a special place in my dormant heart", the brunette sipped his tea as he awaited your response.
" Indeed, I do !. Infact, I do too cherished and it is very sweet of you to say that. Considering, you're a grumpy bear usually", you remarked playfully,sipped your tea, and watched him glare at you halfheartedly.
" V-vlady, what's happening all of sudden. Why is everything so dizzy?", you spoke as you watch the world around you swirl and black spots began hazing your mind. Before you plummeted to the ground, a large arms had caught you in their arms. It wasn't warm this time,it was deathly cold similar to the embrace of death himself.
The last thing you saw were; Vlad's bloody irises and a cold smile gracing his visage.
●◉◎◈◎◉●
Once you awakened from your stupor, you were met directly with the bloody orbs of the person whom took advantage of you.
" Ah! маленький. You've awaken; its seems the drug didn't last long. No matter, what truly matters is that you're with me now." ,Vladmir crawled closer to you. Thus, you started to take a step from your former friend.
"Why are you doing this Vladimir? Why? after all we've been through; you do this", your eyes began to drip in tears as you screamed at your fr- No! at the strange man that possessed your friend.
"Because, you are the only one who cares authentically about me and isn't afraid of me. You painted my grey world with your light. You're the sunshine that I never had, this why I have to keep you away. So, no one would taint you. Can't you see I am a merely broken man shunned and forsakened by his own family?. Yet, you want to take away my chance of happiness,маленький?", Vladimir remarked bitterly,staring intently through your eyes with desolate engraved in his cold dead eyes.
"Just give into me,love. If you won't I might do something we both will regret."
Finally, in the end he have gotten something good out of this pointless life! and he'll will ensure her safety with him as he'll drown her with the love that he never had.
This is a story of man who lost everything,yet he gained something better than everything; eternal love.
●◉◎◈◎◉●
A/n: Hope you like it. Sorry if it took so long and thank you for requesting!
Translations:
приве́т, брат. как дела? - Hello,brother. How are you?
Здравствуйте, младшая сестра.Я в поря́дке. - Hello, little sister. I'm fine.
да - Yes.

Cat Bath
Entrapta X Hordak fic!
Tumblr media
Author’s note: This is an entrapdak fanfic written by me! I wrote it as feral because that’s the way I draw them so I just thought it would be fair. If you don’t understand what’s going on, just search #entrapdak on my blog and take a look at my artwork! I’m not very confident on my writing and I feel like there’s a lot of stuff I need to improve on. Tell me what you guys think! I hope this is fun!
Please, tell me how I went! I hope you all like it, and let me know if you’d like to see more! Thanks for reading!
-Why are you always so licky?! -Entrapta asked in a anoyed tone. She tried to suppress a low growl, still writhing underneath Hordak's paws, caught on another one of his "grooming" sessions. Which normally meant sitting her down and licking her entire body, leaving her a pouting and blushing mess.
This wasn't new. Since they first started to allowed themselves to show physical affection, Hordak was outraged at the fact that dogs don't groom themselves, and made it so every now and then that Entrapta should be groomed. Even if he had to chase her and grab her by the scruff to do so.
-Stop writhing! - he said, still with his tongue at her ear. -We would have been done by now if you didn't struggle!
Entrapta let out a whine of protest as he left her right ear to lick her belly. She felt her cheeks warm up and pushed his head with her hind leg. He growled loudly, it didn't faze her not in the slightest.
-Entrapta, we've been over this! I groom you so your fur won't tangle and the already dead fur won't stick to your body! It's healthier this way!
-Then why don't I see you do it?
-Because I don't have as much fur as you. -he caught her midway out of his grasp, and flipped her on her back again. -And I don't try to fight it!
She barked and whined trying to writhe away from the cat's paws, her face redder than a tomato. It did not seem to faze Hordak, though, as he continued his work on her sides this time. Entrapta's ear fur embraced and tangled around Hordak's body, despite the protest. She knew grooming was also a sign of love and worry, based on her observations. His tail was wrapped around her ear fur and sometimes when she was silent, she could hear very low purring.
Entrapta did not want to be silent today. Hordak decided it was a good idea to stop her midway into a brilliant experiment to lick her clean and she would not go down without a fight.
-Why DO you do this, anyway? -she asked in a huff.
Hordak sighed.
-I told you. It's that so your fur won't tangle and the dead fur can leave so healthier fur can grow on it's place. -his licking grew softer. She made a mental note to get him to talk more during grooming session. -And it also keeps it smooth and clean.
Entrapta frowned.
-Smooth and clean? You're not cleaning me! If that's your objective, you're making it worse! You're just slobbering me! I thought you hated slobbering! -she protested, confused this time.
-I am not slobbering you! I do not drool! I am not a dog! -Entrapta stuck out her tongue at him at that last sentence. -And how else are you supposed to do to brush your fur if not groom it?
-That's easy. I just use a brush.
It was Hordak's turn to be confused. His ears perked up and he tilted his head at her statement.
-A brush...?
-Yeah, like one of these. -her fur left his body for a second to reach the drawer on her nightstand beside her bed. She took out a strange tool, smilar to a screw-drive but had bristles at the end of it and a lot of purple fur.
He sniffed it, still not understanding her point. It just smelled of her...
-Hordak, have you never seen a brush before? -Entrapta was surprised. He always was so worried about his appearence and makeup and everything, very picky with dresses and sometimes even insisted she get changed for some reason. -How do you even brush your fur after your baths?!
-I told you, I groom myself.
-Doesn't it taste like soap after you bathe?
They were both so confused.
-Beloved, why would I ever put soap in my fur before grooming?
-No, not grooming! -Entrapta shook her head. -I mean after an actual bath. You know... Soap and water and shampoo?
Hordak wrinkled his nose and his ears pressed against his head. Red teeth showing.
-Why would I ever groom in water? I despise it! -he hissed.
Entrapta's ears fell and her eyes widened as the realization hit her.
-Hordak... You have NEVER taken a bath?!
-Well...
She gasped loudly.
-LORD HORDAK OF DRYL, ARE TELLING ME THAT YOU'VE NEVER BATHED IN YOUR LIFE?!?
She was raised on her ears, her fur on her scruff was tingled and her teeth were showing. Her tone was loud and severe, almost comanding. Hordak was taken a back as she continued to lecture him.
-That's nasty, Hordak! Even I know better than that! -she barked. -That's irresponsible and highly anti-hygienic! Now I'M disappointed!
Entrapta's ear fur now gripped strongly around his body. His ears fell back and his tail hid between his legs.
-We need to get you to the tub asap! -she jumped out of bed and made it for the bathroom door, but Hordak dug his claws on the bed and screeched in protest when she pulled him.
-Absolutely not! -he yelled. -I am not going one meter close to water! I'd rather have my skin grow mold! I understand your worry for my well being, Entrapta, but I will do just fine grooming myself! There is no way in this world I'll get in a bath tub!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hordak yelled and clawed at the edge of the tub, desperately trying to get out. Entrapta's ear fur still held an iron grip around him, pulling the more he struggled.
-THIS IS RIDICULOUS! I DEMAND YOU RELEASE ME THIS INSTANT, ENTRAPTA! -He tried to sound menacing, but his words came out as desperate more than anything. -IT'S A WASTE OF TIME AND RESOURCES! I CANNOT BELIEVE-
He was cut off by a stream of water dropped in his scalp. He screeched, yowled, clawed and paddled, but Entrapta was holding him still, watering him with the shower hose. She grabbed her shampoo, conditioner, sponge and everything else she thought would be necessary and hopped back at her shouting mess of a lab partner.
She brought him to the edge where she stood and shushed him with a kiss on the lips. Hordak's face turned red, even redder than it already was, and he turned to her in anger.
-WHY ARE WE STILL GOING THROUGH WITH THIS?!
-'Cause you're still dirty, silly! -she answered in a fake innocent tone.
Entrapta took one of her bottles and poured it's content on the water.
-What is that?
-Bubble bath mixture! It makes the water all bubbly! -she mixed the water with a strap of her fur and bubbles started to form.
-What for? -she gave him the now empty bottle and he read the label: "Extra Bubbly! For extra fun in the water and extra comfort!".
This was not comforting at all! He threw the bottle over his head and clung to the edge of the tub again, digging his claws on the marble. Entrapta took off her mask and wiggled her hips before jumping right in. She raised out of the water again and shook her head before turning to him.
-I just like it bubbly! How's the experience of your first bath so far?
-Hellish! -he hissed. -I've been striped bare out of my armor and clothes! I've almost drowned in bubbles, and I am still being held captive in this idiotic joke of a torture room!
Entrapta couldn't help but laugh. Hordak could see her tail wagging on the water, splashing bubbles around. She grabbed the soaked sponge and paddled to him.
-It's just a bath, Hordikins! It's for your own good! Not a torture session!
-I doubt that! -her laughter rang in his ears again. He eyed her strange tool as she approached him. -What is that?
-It's a sponge! For scrubbing!
-Scrubbing...?
-Yup! Like this! -she reached with the sponge and scrubbed his neck gently. He immediately started clawing and screeching once again.
Anyone out of the bathroom would swear Entrapta was probably degutting Hordak alive, but the Lord of Dryl's first experience in a bath tub was simply not going smoothly. He questioned her in her shampoo and conditioner as well. Entrapta tilted her head.
-I won't get any chemical substance on you, you big dork! It's just shampoo! It's made to wash your fur! Like this! -she poured a little on her paw and smoothed her fur with it.
Hordak watched her in awe. She seemed so calm and relaxed, he couldn't understand It. Wasn't she cold? Couldn't she smell at all? She turned back to him.
-See? It wasn't that bad! -pouring more in her paw again, she climbed on him to get to his fur on his head.
He tried backing away again, but was already cornered. He did not shout, but still growled loudly at her paws on his fur.
-I still don't get it... You seem so worried about your appearance overall, I assumed you took a lot of baths in addition to grooming! -Entrapta explained. -Why are you so scared of water?
-I am not scared! I'm... I'm bothered... -Hordak lied.
-Buy why?
He growled and took a deep breath. Hordak was terrible with his words when saying his feelings out loud. Even for Entrapta.
-My... Body temperature dropped drastically, and the soap and the shampoo... Smell! Awful!
Entrapta stopped and turned to look him in the eyes, cupping his face between her paws so their noses touched.
-I'm sorry, I didn't realize it. I can turn the temperature higher if you want?
He nodded. She left his face to adjust the tap. In a few moments the bathroom was filled with vapor and Hordak felt his muscles relax.
-Do you feel better? -she asked in a genuine concerned tone.  -The smell bothers me as well and the shampoo and soap I use are already pretty weak, so I didn't thought it would bother you... We could find one that doesn't smell so bad.
-Thank you, beloved...
She kissed his forehead and a low purr escaped out of him. She wagged her tail again when his claws drew back.

There's definitely marks in the flooring by now.
Carly's been pacing the hallway for what seems to be inching closer and closer to infinity each time she checks the time.
In reality, she's only on hour three of pacing and anxiety and picking fights with Sonny and random paperwork being filled out. There's also the fact she has no clue where Josslyn, Michael, Willow, or Wiley are but they're all legal adults or a toddler with a legal adult, so of course she's going to have to trust that everything's okay with them.
Her head snaps up when she hears Trina's voice. "Where's Joss and Cam?"
"They're in the cafeteria," Dante answers, looking up from his phone. "I need something to eat; I'll go with you. Do any of you need anything?"
They all shake their heads, Sonny grumbling something Carly can't quite catch. "What was that, Sonny?"
"I was saying I need a faithful wife," he says, loud enough even Michael and Willow are broken out of their little bubble of marital... Emotions? Attraction? Neither knew what to call whatever they're in.
"Sonny I'm not fighting with you like this," Carly sighs, running a hand through her blonde locks. "When he's in the clear, we can consider a fight."
"Because god forbid that you prioritize our marriage over a single thing that involves Jason Morgan," Sonny shouts back at her.
"Enough! Grow up, Sonny! That's your goddamn best friend in there! On an operating table!" Carly exclaims, voice breaking. "He's been there for you and me through everything, no matter what. Even when neither of us have deserved his friendship. If you're gonna be pissy like this and throwing a tantrum, then leave. I don't want you here when you're like this, or at home."
"Then where the hell do you want me to go, Carly?"
"I don't know, somewhere where I and our children aren't. Anywhere!"
"Mrs. Corinthos, I'm going to take your husband in for questioning now," Chase says calmly, businesslike and everything. It's very formal, though it does cause an eye roll from Michael.
"Thank you," Carly smiles at him softly before Portia comes over. "Do you have any news? How's Jason?"
"I'm not going to lie to you, it was a hell of a shot. But luckily, we were able to remove the bullet and don't foresee any major issues happening with him in the meantime. However, this surgery took a lot out of him. He's going to need to stay in the hospital and when he gets out, nothing too active. There won't be bed rest, but he will be restricted at first. I understand Mr. Morgan has a tendency to not follow precautions or check himself out, but if he doesn't follow these, he could die," Portia explains to them in a medical voice.
The relief can be felt through everyone's loud sighs of relief. Michael and Willow engage in a hug, breathing each other in much to Chase's anger. Sonny softens slightly, though it's doubtful that'll last past lunch. Carly starts crying tears of relief and happiness and all of her emotions at once as she texts Joss and Dante. Every single emotion is coursing through her veins.
Joss and Dante run upstairs with Monica trailing slightly behind them, everyone smiling with relief through their tear stained eyes. "He's going to be okay?" Joss asks again for confirmation and Carly nods.
"Yes, he will be. Provided, of course, he's under very strict supervision and doesn't break out of the hospital," Carly smiles at her daughter and stepson. "Portia, can we see him?"
"One at a time. Be careful, he's still under the anesthetic but he is coming out of it so god knows what he'll say. Don't confuse him or do anything life changing; chances are, he won't remember it," the curly haired woman says. "He's room 3722."
"Thank you," Dante thanks her before hugging his sister and stepmom. "I don't feel like going to a funeral."
They all laugh at that, the energy having changed from a rather somber one (provided you're not Willow or Michael) to a happy one, full of happy tears and laughs in a matter of minutes.
Clapping his hands together, Michael says, "Mom, we all know you're waiting to go in there. Go."
"You sure? I can wait," she offers half-heartedly.
"Do you need to get checked out while we're here? Carly, we'll be fine. After all, I'm very responsible and I'm here so everyone will be well taken care of. And if I accidentally get someone injured, well, Monica's here too," Dante jokes. "Run."
That proves to be all she needs before she walks to his room, entering without so much as a knock to see Elizabeth monitoring his vitals. "Thank god, he made it," she smiles at the blonde.
"Thank god is right," Carly agrees, wiping her tears.
"Well, I've done all the monitoring I need to do, so I'll let you two be alone," the younger says before leaving the hospital room to go back to the nurses station.
Tears she attempted to push aside come back, slightly more powerful. However, she doesn't surrender to the tears as she sits at his bedside, grasping his hand in hers. There's a weird feeling of deja vu associated with this, probably because of how many accidents he gets into.
That's one hell of a bad habit he needs to break.
"Carly?" He asks and a smile appears on her face.
"I'm here."
"What the hell happened to me?"
"You got shot in the parking garage of the Metro Court," she answers calmly, wiping her tears that are spilling out of her eyes. "The gunman is still unknown."
"And you think it's your fault?"
"How couldn't it be my fault? This happened after I told you my feelings and it happened in my parking garage and some people for either my husband's enemy or my husband shot you! I'm pretty sure this is 100% my fault and there's no way to twist the situation so it's not," she says, silent sobs leaving her body as she tries to keep herself from full on breaking down in a hospital room.
"How could it be your fault? Carly, this would've happened even if you didn't tell me. Hell, it probably would've happened hours sooner. Look, Cyrus's people have been trying to take me out for months now. It started with my motorcycle crash and then the Floating Rib and now this. They keep missing," Jason says, trying to comfort her. "Minus the fact I'm in a hospital I'm fine."
"You got shot! That's not fine, that's possible death!"
"I keep missing death," he answers.
"And you narrowly make it out alive! You could've died! You could've been hooked up to a ventilator your whole life, not breathing on your own until I unplugged you! You're in a hospital bed right now recovering from surgery! Not fine!" Carly exclaims.
"You couldn't do anything to stop this."
"Yes, I could," she says, voice barely above a whisper as she breaks into sobs. "I could've done something! I could've gone down there when we heard the sirens instead of sending Olivia down there or hired better security or something! You have gotten me out if every mess I've ever made and I can't even offer you protection in the parking garage! A parking garage! What shooter is thinking that's the best place to shoot someone?"
"It's not your job to save me or prevent me from getting shot. Last I checked you're not bulletproof either," he reminds her gently. "Nothing you could've done would've stopped this. Delayed, sure. Prevented it? Never. They're not gonna stop until they're taken out, their boss dies, or I die."
"Are you trying to tell me pacing the hallway is going to become a regular pastime of mine now?" Carly asks, horrified.
"Not if I can help it, but you've got to remember, it's impossible for you to protect me from all bad things. No matter how hard you try."
"That's true but I could've helped you with this one! This is the time you needed my help and I couldn't because I was inside, in cloud 9. Whether or not you'll let me accept responsibility, it's my fault," the blonde continues, sobbing in between words.
"If you were out there, you could've gotten shot too," he says, dropping his voice several levels. "I wouldn't have been able to live with myself if that happened because of an attack on me."
"It's my fault."
"No, it isn't! I got shot because someone got instructions to take me out. They failed, like they keep doing."
"Maybe you're immortal. Then, you couldn't ever die and I could take it off my list of anxieties," she smiles at him as he wipes away her tears.
"It's possible. Promise me one thing: that you'll stop blaming yourself for this," he requests.
"Why couldn't the promise be anything else?"
"Do you honestly want to have gotten shot too? It's pretty painful and I'm not a fan, personally," Jason smiles at her.
"It's not that I wanted to get shot too, it's that I don't want you experiencing this alone," she explains quickly.
"Well I'm not. I've got you and the rest of my family, so I'm okay. I'll make it out alive of the third attempt on my life in a few months."
"You need to stop this madness about assassination attempts. I'm thinking bulletproof clothing, hat, shoes, everything."
"No."
"Then I'm thinking we add some color to your wardrobe."
"No."
"Black isn't the only good color to wear, Jason," Carly sighs dramatically. "You need more variety in your outfits than the blue jean, black t shirt, leather jacket look because while it looks great on you, variety is the spice of life."
"There's variety to the ways people try to kill me."
"Healthy variety that doesn't end you up in the hospital."
"Maybe there's minimal variety in my life."
"Exactly!"
"You're not taking me shopping."
"Damn."
To be continued (possibly)
Oh thank gods he's ok!

Friends in Low Places [Part 1]
Arthur Morgan x Reader | Imagine #1
Summary: You bite off more than you can chew when you wind up in the muddy little town known as Valentine for the night.
Category: Action, Drama, Fluff, First meeting.
Tumblr media

"Full house, fellas!" You exclaimed, slamming down a fist full of worn poker cards on the saloon table.
You had landed yourself in the small town of Valentine in New Hanover a month ago. You didn't tend to hang around one spot too long, you always found trouble, or at least, trouble found you.
You had been on your own for the majority of your life. You had to grow up fast. Both parents had died when you were very young, so you spent most of your life in an orphanage. But, being the troublemaker that you were, you were always getting into mischief whether it was fighting, or running off. After more than a few squabbles, the headmasters at the orphanage couldn't take much more, and you were sent off to a strict refinement school.
While you learned to be a little more lady-like, the rebellious streak in you stayed put. Once you were old enough, you headed out on your own. You had seen a lot of the world already at such a young age, and you were planning on seeing more of it. You always found yourself going from town to town and meeting a lot of people along the way. You were very much a woman of the world.
The men around the table all groaned in disappointment when they looked down to see that you had won yet another round at the poker table. The saloon was lively and kicking that night. It was filled to the brim with people from town and others like you who were just passing through and needed a place to hold up for the night. The drinks flowed freely, the conversations and people inside grew more rowdy by the minute. It wasn't a surprise how you witnessed more than a few fights here and there from some drunkards that night.
"Damn. I fold, woman," one of the older gentleman at the table groaned.
He had a greying beard that almost reached down to his shoulders. His tarnished rancher clothing letting you his livelyhood wasn't with easy work.
"C'mon Willard, don't ya wanna stay for another round? I'm not done takin' your day's pay yet," you smiled cheekily.
He downed the rest of the whiskey in his glass, "I ain't stickin' 'round for that'un. I gotta ranch to keep."
"I'm afraid I'll have to say the same," Jack, the other gentleman at the table spoke up.
He was a much different breed from the rest of the patrons. He had a very posh evening suit on, and his accent sounded as if he was from a more upscale city like Blackwater or Saint Denis. He was definitely a stranger in these parts where hardworking people and outlaws seemed to be the only real inhabitants.
Jack was the small glimmer of a near future; a future where outlaws and simple way of living was to be done away with. It was a way of life no one wanted anymore. A whole new world was coming, both literally and figuratively.
You scoffed and finished off your own drink, "Well, it's been fun, boys. Maybe I'll see y'all around again."
"Maybe, if I have a cent left to my name," Willard said gruffly as he left the table and disappeared into the crowd.
"I may stick around for another drink or two. Take in the sights," Jack spoke, flashing you a coquettish smile.
A smile small formed on you lips as you gave him a nod, obliging him. You didn't fancy him much. He was rather big-headed and his conversation skills were dull. You were more-so entertaining him out of the need for cash. It wasn't a secret that you didn't have a job, or a husband to take care of you. You never were much of a woman to settle down with a man for just the sake of stability, anyway.
You made most of your money by beating the pants off of arrogant drunks at poker in saloons like this, or anything else that could be made into a gamble, but your main source of funds came from robbing. Though, you did your best not to rob anyone who was actually innocent, that never sat right with you. But Jack.. He seemed like the type of prick that would steal candy from a kid and then ask why it's crying.
So, as the night went on, the saloon got louder and the whiskey got better. You had taken a few shots, but you seemed to hold your liquor better than half the men around here. Jack was beginning to slurr, while his pomade slicked hair was now disheveled and clinging to his face as he held onto the bar. He was good and loaded; bad for him, but good for you. It don't seem like it'd take much of a fuss to get whatever valuables he had on him, and you had already spotted a beautiful, gold pocketwatch that was hanging in his waistcoat.
You turned to him, buttoning up your old leather trailcoat. Your wardrobe always seemed to change depending on your situation. Some days you'd be as ladylike as any other gal, as you were clothed in a dress with a tightly clinched waist thanks to the corsets you wore, and other days you were what would have been your refinement headmistress' worst nightmare when you dressed like the outlaw that you truly were at heart.
"I'm feeling a bit peckish. Mind walkin' a lady back to her room?" You mustered up a charming smile, gesturing your hand towards the door.
You had taken up residence at the hotel across the street for time being. Jack seemed to have no quarrel about this by any means. He took the last sip of whiskey from his glass and turned to you, jutting out his arm for you to take it.
"It'd be my pleasure, miss (Y/N)," he spoke.
You gave him a nod as you intertwined your arm with his. The two of you set off for the hotel, the walk would give you the time you needed to come up with a satisfactory plan, one that wouldn't land you in Valentine county jail. You quickly decided that leading him into your room would be best, and once you do, you'd knock him out with the butt of your gun, empty his pockets and get the hell outta town. You had pretty much overstayed your welcome here anyway, and you were growing wearing of this sloppy, muddy town.
After stomping through the muggy streets, you made it back over to the porch of the hotel, and you received your fair share of dirty glances from a few old crones who saw you as you walked through the entrance, leading a man upstairs. You already knew what it was that they were thinking, the town had more than it's fair share of ladies of the night, but you were not one of them. Of course robbing people could probably be considered more immoral than prostitution, but it was your method of choice. It also had an element of fun to it, you had to admit.
"Would you like to come in for one more drink?" You turned to Jack while standing outside your door.
A coy smirk tugged at his lips, "Yes ma'am, I would."
You hummed, turning around to open your door. You needed to work fast, get the job done and hit the road as quick as possible, so you led him inside of your room, closing the door tightly begind you. You took in a small breath as you turned around to Jack who was standing behind you. He was a tad wobbly on foot, and that was good. You gave a polite smile as you stepped over to a small mahogany table near the tall chester drawer that sat in the middle of the room. You lifted the small, crystal pitcher that was filled halfway with the familiar whiskey and poured a generous amount into the glass before handing it over to Jack.
"Good 'nuff?" You asked with a smile.
"That'll do it," he chuckled, eyeing the full glass, reaching out for it.
You perched yourself against the chester drawer as you watched him down the liquor, just waiting. He gulped it down halfway before coughing, he took a breath before setting it down onto the table.
"You've peaked my curiosity," he said, shifting his dark eyes to you.
"Have I now?" You blinked at him.
He nodded, "What is a woman like yourself doing all alone here anyway? Surely you've had suitors," he shrugged, eyeing you.
You studied him for a moment, his face seemed to have gone mostly blank and emotionless by this point.
"Once upon a time, I suppose," you cleared your throat. "I never really fancied marriage as much as some women."
He blinked at you before taking a step closer, reaching down into his pocket. Your intution began to nag you in the back of your mind, and you brought your arms up to cross them over your chest, ensuring that you could get to your revolver quickly, if needed. Jack brought his hand back out of his waist coat, a money clip gripped between his fingers.
"What are you doin'?" You asked, looking at him with a peculiar expression.
"How much?" He smiled, pulling a few bucks out of the clip.
Your lips parted, "I beg your pardon?"
He shook his head before looking back at you, a concerning smile forming over his lips, "How much to spend some time with a fine woman such as yourself? C'mon darling, I know playing poker can't be the only game you're running here."
You furrowed your eyebrows at his accusation, knowing exactly what it was that he was inferring, "I'm not a whore."
"What's your price?" He gave you a cocky look.
"No price," you growled. "I do think you should go now."
"But I don't want to," he took another step towards you.
Your heart began to beat beneath the surface of your chest like a drum, all of your better instincts crying out for you to shoot him now, but you couldn't. If you shot him right here, right now, you'd for sure lose every freedom, and if the law didn't get you, the bounty hunters sure as shit would. There had to be another way outta this.
"Please, leave me be," you said firmly.
He shook his head, "I won't ask you to do anything you haven't don't before," he said, reaching out to brush a finger through your hair.
You reflexes were faster than your willpower, your hand darted into your trail coat, fully prepare to grasp the butt of the revolver you had holstered inside of it, but he must have already calculated that possibility, snd before your fingers could get halfways gripped around it, he had caught your wrist, bending it backwards before pressing you roughly against the chester drawer.
"Bastard!" You hollered, kneeing him roughly in the groin.
That slowed him down enough so that you could push past him, and reach the door. You flung it open, your only mission was to make it out, make it outside of this place and ride far, far away from this hell. You sprinted out of the room, but your journey game to a short stop once you ran smack dab into something solid.
For a moment, you thought it was a wall, or maybe the law, until you looked up to see the tall silhouette of a man in the dark hallway of the hotel. The only light available were the few flickering oil lamps that were mounted outside each door. The man that stood in front of you was sturdy and tough looking, in a cowboy hat that was pushed down over his eyes, his beard being one of the only real visible facial features.
"'Scuse me, madame," he said in a gruff, but oddly polite tone of voice.
"Sorry," you breathed your heart still racing as you turned your head back towards the door.
Jack pulled himself out of the entrance, "(Y/N), come back inside." His eyes darted between you and the strange man in front of you.
"No," you shook your head.
The tough looking cowboy looked between the both of you, "Sounsds like you folks had a scuffle going on. Heard it from down the way." He gestured towards the end of the hall.
Jack chuckled nervously, "A bit too much to drink I'm afraid, sir. Thank you."
The man gave Jack a smirk, "Uh-huh. Or maybe you're tryin' to rough up the lady." He shifted his eyes towards you.
You looked back at him, silently pleading for him to help.
"That's quite a serious accusation," Jack narrowed his eyes.
"No harm meant, partner. Why don't you just leave the girl be, and we can all go on about our business," the man nodded at Jack.
"I'm afraid this isn't your business," Jack shook his head, ignoring the man's warning as he stepped forward, reaching out to grab your wrist again.
You fought back this time, pushing him away with your hands, "Get off me."
The man had obviously had enough of the situation and grabbed Jack by the shoulders, slamming him against the wall, "Do I gotta tell you again, boah? I won't be sayin' it a third goddamn time."
They had a scuffle as Jack tried to throw a punch back at the man, but he seemed to be absolutely no match for whomever this man was, he slung Jack around like a rag doll. A few blows being exchanged between them before the man gave the final punch that knocked the man out cold on the ground.
"Jesus," you breathed.
Before either of you could catch a breathe, you heard voices and soon the footsteps of people coming up the stairs. The two of you looked at each other in panic.
"Quick, get him into my room," you urged, reaching down to grab Jack's legs.
The man leaned down in front of the body and grabbed ahold of it and the two of you of you drug him into your room, shutting the door tightly. You held yourself against it with your ear pressed against it, listening out for anything suspicious. What you heard sounded like a man and a woman passing by the door, nothing seemed to serious and neither of them stopped at your door. Once the hall went silent again, you breathed a sigh of relief as you turned and pressed your back against the door, looking back up at the man.
"Thank you, mister. You saved me a lot of trouble," you said, giving him a nod.
He nodded back, "Don't mention it, just doin' the right thing."
You smiled and dropped to your knees beside Jack's body, rifling through his pockets to find the gold pocketwatch and the money clip. He had a whole $50 on him. You glanced up at the man who looked at you a little surprised, but did seem to be at all bothered to see you robbing this man. It wasn't that much surprising to you either, he too had the outlaw look about him, you figure he had probably some his fair share of robniyng, too. You pulled $25 out of the clip, handing it over to the man.
"For your troubles," you smiled.
He held his hand up, "No ma'am, he had it comin'."
You gestured again, "I insist that you take it, we both need to get the hell outta here before he wakes up."
The man gave you an amused look before dropping his head a little, a smirk curling one side of his lip.
He reached out, taking the money and pocketing it quickly, "C'mon, I know the back way out."
He motioned you to follow him, and he led the two of you to the back of the building where the fire escape sat. He let you climb down first as he followed behind. The night air was already starting to turn cool, and most of the town had gone to sleep for the night, nothing to be heard except for the commotion still going on over at the saloon. Once you made it down, you kept close to the building as you peeked around the corner, luckily the streets were mostly empty.
"You gotta horse?" The man asked.
"No," you shook your head, "The stable usually keeps a few in the corral at night, I'll see about rustling one up."
"Nah, too risky. Too many damn buildings 'round there. You'll get caught before you clear the fence," he said sternly.
You stammered, shrugging, "Maybe so, but I can't make it anywhere without a horse, mister."
He nodded and stood there for a minute in silence, staring at you as if he was thinking about something. He looked around before turning back to you, letting out a breath that quickly turned into vapor in the cool, night air.
"Ride with me then," he said.
Your lip curled slightly, you were obviously a bit apprehensive about this after what had just happened. He obviously noticed this when he held his hands up and took a step back.
"Look, I've gotta camp up the road, me and some other folks. You don't gotta say yeah, but you can have somewhere warm to stay the night. If you try to take off with one of them horses, you're gonna get yourself in a mess of trouble," he said, pulling his hands back down to his sides.
You could hear the sincerity in his voice, and unlike with Jack, there was no nagging voice in the back of your mind telling you not to go. Instead, there was just a sense of safety, and something was telling you that you could trust this man for whatever reason.
You thought about it for a moment and finally nodded your head slowly, "Okay.. Let's go."
He gave you a nod before he whistled, calling to his horse that was nearby. I'm only took a moment for a dapple grey filly to come trotting up to the both of you out of the darkness, snorting and nudging at the man with Her head.
He grabbed a hold of her reins and patted her on the neck, "Hey there, girl," he said gently.
He pressed his foot into the stirrup before pulling himself up into the saddle on her back. You followed suit as he held out his hand, you grabbed onto it tightly as he hoisted you up to sit behind him. You sighed as you leaned forward into him, wrapping your arms around his waist as he spurred the animal quickly to get her moving. She soon picked up the pace and you were galloping out of town, the wind at your back as the countryside began passing you by.
You pulled your head up from the man's back, leaning up a little more, "You never told me your name!" You said in a louder tone, making sure he could hear you over the sound of the horse's hooves thundering against the earth beanth you.
He leaned his head back slightly, "Arthur.. Arthur Morgan. What's yours?"
"(Y/N) (Y/L/N)," you called back to him.
"Nice to meet'cha, miss (Y/L/N)," he said, snapping the reins of the horse.
"And you as well, Mister Morgan," you said with a small smile before leaning your head back down to him, preparing yourself for the ride back to camp.

Here's the link to where you can shoot me some requests like the imagine below
So here's my first GoT thing ever. Hope you like it.
Petyr x Reader --> Petyr wants to keep your relationship a secret so no one can use it against him, and you are angry with him because it led to him publicly embarrassing you to throw off suspicion. There is light smut.
Please tell me if you think anything Petyr says/does in this is out of character, and if you think I'm writing any of this wrong or could do it better. Throw me some corrective criticism. Tell me your thoughts. Okay, here we go...
-
"I didn't mean to embarrass you."
Raising your brows lightly, you turn around turn to see Petyr standing before you. He, unsurprisingly, has come to win your forgiveness, and has even changed into a more suitable outfit to do so. Petyr knows what articles of clothing you like best on him, and has changed into them in a subtle effort to diffuse your soured emotions.
Hopefully he will creep away as quietly as he came in, and leave you alone. You address him with a side-eye, and return to your book. You are not ready to speak with him now, or frankly, anyone else. Petyr takes in a breath behind you.
"I only said what I said to protect us, [Y/N]. I had to do something to throw them off, to keep them away. I can't let them come between us."
You scoff, almost humored, and try to keep your focus on your pages. He continues.
"You know I mean this. I don't want anything to happen to you. Even the slightest chance, for someone to find a reason to hurt you, or take you away from me...I couldn't bear for that to happen."
Your skeptical smirk fades from your lips. Snapping your head, you give him a wounded glare, and stand up to face him, seeing your book down.
"You can't bear a chance for someone to take away your power. I don't mean a thing to you if public knowledge of 'us' means you might be threatened."
Petyr steps forward, arms stretching towards you.
"You mean the world to me. What I said out there doesn't change that. It was all lies."
"I mean nothing to you compared to a position you could hold. You're afraid I might be taken from you? You threw me away yourself when your status was threatened. Mocked and insulted me so cruelly in front of how many important figures in King's Landing? You call that protection? Of me? Of our relationship? Petyr, you were only protecting yourself. I am done putting your insecurity above myself. I have a right to protect my own status here as much as you do yours."
His face grows pale, and his mouth closes. For once, he seems to have nothing to say. He stares shamefully at the ground, not meeting your gaze. After a short pause, he glances upwards.
"I'm sorry. I didn't think it would turn out that way, I didn't have enough time to plan what to say. I couldn't say anything that would confirm Varys's comment. You know he is clever in implicating his suspicions in conversation. One wrong word and we'd have more than Varys questioning our relationship."
Moving closer Petyr clasps one of your hands in his, eyes pleading forgiveness.
"I didn't want to hurt you, not truly. I care for you. I didn't want them to know. We couldn't be happy if any of them knew. There are too many who can threaten us."
You look away from him, not wanting to believe he's being truthful. Petyr cups your face gently, regarding your hesitant glances back at him. His brow creases.
"Please believe me. I do care for you. Truly. I did it for us, not for me. I care about you."
You reply with a lightly poisonous tone.
"I never had a problem with keeping it secret, but you...you might have said something less biting. I'm not going to be able to go outside without hearing a snide comment for weeks. Especially from Varys. He'll still probably be frisking me for any sign of affection for you, no doubt, but not before making some remark on how I couldn't defend myself against your foul wit that you spit from your lips so often. You ought to keep them closed for now, lest I be forced to make some nasty calls on you."
His hands drop, along with his gaze.
"I know...I'll do all I can do redeem myself for you, [Y/N]. I'll make a subtle apology in front of all of them if you want me to, but we can't have anyone know how much I care for you. Or believe I like you, even in friendliness. You do understand?"
"You know I understand. Don't do this to me again, Petyr. It hurts me. It damages my place here. You know I wouldn't do that to you."
He approaches you again, moving to pull you against him.
"I love you,"
He whispers,
"Please, forgive me. I'm sorry."
After looking into his eyes for a moment, you decide to believe him, allowing him to pull your body to his. You nuzzle into Petyr, and he sighs with relief. You relax in each other's arms, eyes half closed. Holding you tightly to him, he kisses your forehead. Petyr gazes at you in his arms, entranced with adoration. He reaches his fingers up to caress your cheek.
"Oh, sweetling..."
His mouth meets yours softly, effortlessly coaxing a kiss. You lean forward, and lock your lips together, closing your eyes. You wrap your arms around his neck, taking in the minty taste of Petyr's lips. His hands reach up for your neck, your hair, the back of your head. Your lips move together smoother than Dornish waters. Your bodies become more and more heated with each passionate kiss you share. You groan into the warmth of eachothers mouths, biting, licking, sucking...
The flames of your desire have yet to be quenched.
As his lips brush your jawline, your body cries out for more of his touch. You begin to ache, craving the feel of his bare body against yours. Petyr whispers in your ear,
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
And continues murmuring it quietly, kissing it into the curve of your jaw, down your throat, breathing it into the dip in your neck...You arch back, clutching him against you, sighing, as his tongue slowly trails on your skin and his lips close down, sucking lightly, making you shiver in anticipation for him.
"Oh, Petyr..."
He replies with a muffled mmh, and continues down, while his fingers focus on unclothing you. His moustache bristles against your skin, making you giggle quietly. Successfully undoing the opening on your top, he rips it open all the way, exposing you.
Petyr gets on his knees, and pulls your body to him, licking his way up your abdomen. He kisses your now bare chest, and bites the skin, leaving marks. You gasp, as he brings one of your nipples into his mouth, lapping at it with his warm, wet tongue, sucking gently. You groan aloud in pleasure, hands stroking the back of his neck. He comes back up to kiss your lips, and leads you by hand to your bed.
Laying back onto the blankets, you pull Petyr over you. You kiss each other ravenously, intoxicated with desire. You savor how your lips move together, synchronized in a heated frenzy. Tearing each other's clothes off, you take time to feel and kiss the exposed skin as you uncover it. Finally, both thoroughly naked, you can enjoy the feel of Petyr against you.
You kiss Petyr's collarbone, tracing his fading scar with your fingers. It begins just below your lips, goes down to his navel and curves with a slight flourish towards his hip. You think how Petyr got his scar is awful, and even more so how he has to live it; a hefty reminder of his failed attempt at winning his believed first love. At the beginning of your relationship together, he was hesitant to let you see the lengthy scar, and even less willing to allow you to touch it. You soon won him over though, and now you notice how he presses forward against your fingers.
You watch Petyr's pupils enlarge as he watches you shift downwards. It so happens now Petyr especially likes you to kiss his scar, and so you do just that. You start at the end, and revel in the way his breath catches as your lips touch his scar. You kiss the light-pink line gently, working your way up slowly, hands grasping his hips. You pause between kisses to lick the scar, making Petyr groan above you. You're a little more than half up when he stops you.
"Oh [Y/N], my sweet love, I do not deserve you. Let me please you, dear sweetling. I owe you as much."
You've never loved him more in this moment. He's never seemed more thankful of you than he does now, more caring or appreciative of your love for him. He lays down, taking you in his arms. Holding you tightly Petyr kisses you so sweetly you could cry. Striking your cheek, he gazes into your eyes.
"I am yours, [Y/N]. Whatever you wish that I can five to you now is yours. What do you wish of me?"
You glance at his lips.
"Use that feisty tongue of yours to redeem your words. I know you know how to use it. Lick me."
And then he places kisses to your lips once more, before trailing them all the way down to where you burn for him.

The Ghost Of You
17 - So Called Guardian
Tumblr media
This Chapter’s Songs:
November; Tyler The Creator
Desire Lines; Lush
Show Me How; Men I Trust
- Y. L. Perspective
I swiftly take off my blazer, shoes, and tie, keeping an eye on the new yet old girl. After she had introduced herself to me, she finished up her conversation with Kiyoko. As I hid behind the locker to change my outfit, I listened in on Eclair and her reason for being here.
"Yeah, so I just got back! I'm leaving again around next week! I'm on spring break to see my mom, so I thought I could by after school to visit the old club! Maybe if Takeda lets me, I could stick around till I leave," she mumbles, smiling down at her shoes. The girl looked like an unboxed expensive doll with rich clothing included. "Oh...I have a question."
Kiyoko hummed, tying her shoes on the bench.
"How's Koushi doing?"
I felt as if my ears were stretching out towards her, hearing every single vowel she spoke out. 'Suga? What does she want to do with him? Maybe they're old friends.' I hoped and prayed that the two weren't involved in anything together. If so, that would give me another issue. I didn't want some beautiful girl near Koushi if they had history. Especially not if they're so close for them to be on a first-name basis.
I slam my locker shut, getting ready to put on my shoes as well. Both girls are surprised by the sudden sound, but I ignore it, continuing to "mind my own business."
"Uhm..." I feel Kiyoko's eyes wander towards me at the mention of Sugawara. "He's been doing pretty good ever since school started. I don't know much about his personal life."
I spot her hands tightening in on each other in the corner of my eye. "Oh! Okay, I'll just ask Daichi then. The only reason I'm asking is that...well...you know."
'You know?! What the hell does this girl want with Koushi?! And it's not like I can say I'm his girlfriend or anything...' I think to myself, finishing getting dressed. "Hey, Kiyoko, we should probably get going. We don't wanna be late to practice," I mutter in a nervous voice, rubbing my neck.
She nods to me. "Yeah. Uhm— Eclair is coming as well if you don't mind."
'Of course, she is.' Once again, I smile, saying, "that's fine with me! Gives me some time to know her." The girl squeals in excitement, getting a head start to the gym before Kiyoko and me.
When Kiyoko pulls open the gym doors, we're greeted by a few players that were already there. To my surprise, there seems to be a new boy in the gym.
I had expected him to greet us, girls, in a gentle manner the way the rest of the team does. Instead, he yells out to the black-haired girl, "Kiyoko! Come to my arms sweet mama!"
Repulsed, she slapped her hand against his face, making sure he hadn't touched her. "Stop that," she demanded which in her therapeutic tone that I could never take seriously. I only stood at the doorway, confused as to why there was a short, loud little man at our feet.
"I've missed you!" The boy gets back up, standing a good distance from us. Kiyoko simply scoffs before walking to the supply room, leaving Eclair and me with him. He looks our way almost immediately, grabbing both of our hands and kissing them. "Hey, ladies! Now, Eclair— you better tell me who this fine girl!"
She giggles lightly. "That's Y/n! I just met her a few moments ago, so I'm not sure I can tell you much about her!" A few moments after he turns back to the rest of the team, she leans close to my ear to whisper, "that's Nishinoya. He was our old libero before leaving for temporary discipline."
Kiyoko rolls out a basket of volleyballs, calling me towards her while Eclair greeted our players. I run towards her, helping her unbuckle the straps that held the casket together.
"So...who exactly is this Eclair?" I ask her, causing her to roll her eyes.
'I'm guessing no one good.'
"It's just an old manager that was around for a month or two during our second year. Throughout that time, she managed to get every boy on the team to wag their tail for her. I wouldn't call her a slut or anything, just very flirtatious. She didn't do much. She was more of a cheerleader for the boys so drool over," she explains. I look over to Eclair, feeling ill by the fact she was much closer to any of the players than I was. "And about Sugawara... she had a major crush on him for a while. You might want to keep an eye on him since you two are a thing."
It seemed Eclair was a huge threat already. With her formality, style, and beauty, I most definitely had my doubts about keeping Koshi in my grasp. I stared her down as she walked over towards him, greeting him with a small hug. Internally, I felt like ripping my head off at the sight. But I just tried ignoring it and continuing my task.
Thankfully, Daichi yells my name out, calling for me to head over there. I do as told and run over towards the group. He tugs at my shoulders, wrapping one of his strong arms around them. "This is Y/n. She's been a manager of ours for a week now, but she's pretty familiar with the third years. I think she'll be helping Kiyoko out until they graduate. Y/n, this is Eclair and Nishinoya— second years. Eclair was assistant to manager for a little while and Noya is our team's libero."
"Wow, that's so cool! So is Eclair gonna be a manager too?! That would be so awesome if we had three pretty girls in the club!" I cringe at how girl-obsessed this Nishinoya seemed to be and how sweet Eclair was behaving.
She smiled, giggling at the boy's question. "No, silly! I'm only here for a week! Since I'm still on spring break, I'll just be hanging out with you guys a couple of times before going back to France. I'm so sad that I have to leave all of you sweet boys for good!"
Daichi let's go of me, letting me wiggle my shoulders around. "Noya, you haven't changed all that much after leaving school for a while."
"Oh, whatever. I'm just excited to be back on the team. So, where's Asahi? Is he back yet?"
Everyone grows silent at Noya's question, looking anywhere but at him. 'Who's Asahi? This team is really lacking communication skills,' I think to myself. "Well...Uhm," Daichi mumbles in a hesitant tone.
"Damn coward." Nishinoya makes a sudden remark, changing the cheerful atmosphere he led just a few seconds ago.
Tanaka tried shutting up his peer, scared he'll get himself into even more trouble than he was already in. "Noya! Show some respect for your upper class-men!—"
"Oh shut up! He's a scared little cry baby and you know it," he yelled back to Tanaka. "If Asahi's not coming back, then neither am I!"
'So dramatic.' I think to myself, raising my brows at the awkward situation. Before anybody can stop him, he rushes out of the gym, leaving us worried. It sure was the "guardian" that Daichi described last week. Blunt and loud.
"Hm..so who's gonna run after him this time?" Tanaka groans, disappointed that his reunion with his friend came to a sudden stop.
Eclair frowns, beginning the sentence of her idea. "Maybe I could talk to him—" but she's suddenly interrupted by Koshi, who stands right behind me.
"Y/n! Why don't you do it?" He and his patronizing smile showed no mercy towards me. Placing both of his hands on my hips, he turns and leads me towards the door. "Come on, it'll be fun! Noya is always nice to gorgeous girls. Right guys?"
The team nods, chuckling at Koshi's strange behavior, given none of them had ever seen him act so touchy with me. In fact, he'd just told every member of the club that he thought I was gorgeous.
I give him a death stare, attempting to unleash myself from his grasp. He still kept a cheerful mood and was determined to see how I could handle this situation. "Koshi—I dunno... I just met the guy two minutes ago!"
When we reach the door, he suddenly got close up to my ear, whispering, "you'll be closer to the team ten times more than you were if you get him back. I just want you and the team to feel comfortable before announcing anything."
As annoyed as I was with him, I understood. My friends knew Suga, but they weren't very close to him in any way. I didn't blame him for wanting me to communicate with them. Still, that didn't change the fact I was pissed with him for putting me on the spot like that.
Sighing, I roll my eyes, awkwardly smiling at the team as they look towards us. And before I knew it, I'm off looking for Nishinoya.
I felt released when I had spotted him sitting nicely under a cherry blossom tree. As cheerful as the area was, he looked quite disappointed.
I debated once more if I should have butt into a problem that I truly had no acknowledgment of— if it was the best idea to potentially ruin this opportunity for the volleyball club. Unfortunately, he had spotted me in his peripheral vision before I could doubt myself any longer.
"Did Daichi send you?" His raspy high pitched voice questions me while he cracked his knuckles.
'Well, not him, but his best friend.'
I shake my head, sitting down in the empty spot next to him on the bench. He quickly turned the other way, crossing his arms like a child. "I'm not coming back," Noya scoffed.
I was lost. Was there anything other than coming back to the club to talk about? His skills. "Uhm, so, you specialize in defense, right?" I prayed to every presence that I was steering the right way with this conversation.
"Why do you think that?" He asks. "Cause I'm short?"
I shake my head again. "No, It's because Daichi kept calling you 'Guardian'."
"Guardian?! Where did that come from? I mean, I'm not that important. It's embarrassing—really!" Bingo! Noya grew flustered about the nickname and faced me, denying his excitement. "D-did he say that?"
"Mhm, supposedly you're pretty important."
But all good things must come to an end. After a few more seconds of happiness, he reverts to his angry attitude. "So what?! Does Daichi think giving me a badass nickname is enough to make me come back? I mean he's not wrong but—damn is Daichi that's not fair."
'It's not all that. Honestly, it's kind of cringe. But whatever floats your boat, I guess.' I wonder to myself how I could possibly make this stubborn boy agree that he was needed on the team. Without a script in my hand, I came up with the best I could do. "Look, Noya. I don't know much about volleyball or the club the way you do. Hell, I've only been here for a week and I'm already stressed out. But I'm positive that you're important to us. We have this kid...his name is Hinata. You met him earlier. You see, he has potential, but he still needs a lot of practice on his receives. And from what I know, that's the most important aspect of the game. Right?"
Nishinoya abruptly stands up, near crying at my explanation of how badly we needed him. "...wow,
L/n! You know how to convince a guy!" His voice wobbles in emotion. "Of course I'll help you! I
mean— Hinata! But that doesn't mean I'm coming back to volleyball club, I'm only gonna teach him how to do receives, that's all!"
I stand up, bowing towards the girl-obsessed guy. "Thank you, Noya."
'I did it! I got him to come back! Only for one practice, but that's still something!'
-
After taking many mental (and physical) notes on today, it was finally my time to leave practice.
Seeing Noya's playstyle helped me tremendously to understand the position of a receiver on the volleyball team. And as it turned out, he was an important player. And after this "Asahi" guy left, it only made everyone feel more diminished.
He's supposed to be another one of the third-year players. Though I've never met him, I do know that he's a boy my age but looks like a man. Supposedly, during a game that Karasuno was losing caused trouble for the entire team. Sugawara was setting and Asahi was attacking, but all of his attacks were shot down by another team. The night they came back is when he'd decided to give up on volleyball. I couldn't even imagine how guilty Koshi must have felt after that. Knowing him, he probably took on the blame for everything.
I was glad I decided to help out the club by getting Noya to help Hinata with his received. It would benefit not only them, but Sugawara as well. "How can you be confused, its just 'wooh!' and then 'pow!'" He shouts as the ball ricochets off of his wrists.
"Yeah! I know exactly what he's saying, how do you not get it?!" Kageyama says to Hinata, who's mentally challenging himself today.
"That's only because you guys teach with words!"
The day was coming to an end, finally. Dealing with a bunch of boys making noise and Eclair non-stop talking to everybody made me feel sick. But before I left to change back into my clothes, Nishinoya made a move to stop me.
"Wait, Y/n! You can't just leave without giving me your number! And where's my hug?! How about I take you out sometime as thanks for giving me such a sweet talk under the pretty little tree?" He whines, grabbing both my hands. 'Where's my hug? Mother fucker, you're younger than I am.'
Koshi spends no time running up behind me and pulling me from his grasp, telling the boy, "Noya, you need to stop harassing all the girls that step into this gym."
"Oh, come on, Suga! She's a total cutie and you know it!" He points at him. "Wait a minute...is that why you're so protective of the new manager?! You've got your eyes on Y/n!"
We both gasp, letting go of each other in an instant. "No!" Koshi and I yell while awkwardly smiling.
-
As time passes, each member dresses out and begins to walk home. When I do as well, Koshi. waits for me outside.
I would finally be able to talk with him about today!
"So, you have Noya a sweet talk under the cherry blossom tree?" Sugawara teases me, playfully bumping my shoulder while we began our walk into the roads.
I hit him back. "Stop that! That was just a coincidence. And I only got him back by saying Daichi thought of him as some knight and that he was needed on the team. That's all!"
"Oh yeah? Well, you did a good job. He said he'll stick around for a little bit to teach Hinata. Gotta say they get along great." His sweet chuckle fills the warmth around us.
Something was poking at me to ask him about the girl I'd met earlier. 'If she still has feelings for him, then should I not say anything?' "Hey, Kou?"
He hums, wrapping an arm around me. "What?"
"...what do you think of Eclair? Are you happy she's back to visit you guys?"
"Oh, I guess so. I tried not paying too much attention to her." He states, looking at the sidewalk ahead of us. Something told me he didn't want to talk about her feelings for him or if they were still there. However, I was determined to get to the bottom of the situation before having to be in the same room as the girl who likes the boy I love.
"Uhm...could you tell me about her? Like, what kind of relationship did she have with everybody? Did you guys get along? Stuff like that. I wanna get to know her without having to talk to her a whole lot," I tell him, snuggling into his shoulder.
When he walks dead silent for a few seconds, I realize that something is wrong. "Y/n..." he begins to sound a bit worried and disappointed. "I'd rather you not be around her too much."
As if I had no idea, I raise my brows innocently. "Why?"
"She just...stirs things up. I-I'd rather not have her come in between us. Thing is, she used to have this thing for me a few months before she left for France. At first, I thought she was just being polite by doing usual things that people would do when they are in love. But then after some time, I realized she had a major crush on me. And when I told her that I wasn't ready for a relationship, she totally flipped out. She made a big scene and told everybody that I was a stupid guy who only talked to girls for my pleasure." Towards the end of his explanation, he becomes more and more ashamed of what he says.
'So that means he had to have done things with other girls.' The thought that Koshi has most likely already had sex made my face heat up in both anger and sadness. Not that I had any motive to rush into that with him, but I felt more anxious he would expect more from me if the time ever came. "And...did you only talk to girls for pleasure?" My heart raced with every silent second that ran past us. Sugawara didn't want to answer my question.
"Koshi, if you've already had sex then I don't mind. I'm just asking if you used other girls for pleasure...because if so—"
"No!" He shouts gently, turning me towards him. Once again, we stood under the street light that we always seemed to stop at on walks home. "Y/n, I know I was pretty messed up but I wouldn't ever take girls for advantage and never have! And my old habits—they aren't something I should be proud of, so I don't talk about it."
"Koshi, we don't have to if you don't want to," I tell him.
"But I have to eventually, right? Why get you all caught up in a relationship you don't even fully know about."
I look into his eyes, longing for him to lay his sorrow down onto me and forget about it all. I knew that he'd never have it in his heart to do anything evil. But whatever he didn't want to tell me was eating him up. After a few moments of even more silence, I bring him back from his thoughts. "Kou?"
The boy takes one of my hands within his and brings it up to his lips, kissing it lightly. When he takes his lips back, he begins his explanation. "I've never really been able to cope properly with my mom's death, Y/n. That's why when I talk about it, I can't seem to keep myself together. And I know it's been a long time, but I'm still ashamed for giving my first time away so easily because I was overwhelmed with anger that I didn't care any longer. Things that someone should save for someone special were spent on girls who were only in it for pleasure. I was the same, but I now know that I would have saved even holding hands with a girl if it meant it was with you, Y/n. See— doing anything with you feels like the first time but better. And that's because I love you. So yeah, I slept with a couple of girls, but it never meant anything to me. It only helped me distract myself from realizing that I required feeling important and loved again. That as much as I wanted to, I couldn't be an adult at the age of seventeen. Please, tell me that you understand what I'm saying? That when I'm with you, you make me feel whole again. Like I'm loved and needed, and I can take my time with you."
When he says things like that to me, I can't help but sink into his arms and breathy close to him. I wanted nothing more than to help him cure whatever negative feelings intoxicated him. If I was what helped him, then so be it.
"Then tell me, Koshi," I whisper to him, looking deep into his eyes. The world stopped around us if only for a second to let me ask this question, even if I already knew the answer. "...who is your first love?"
Every nerve in my body jumped when he wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me into a strong hug. If he had already done everything romantic with other women, then wouldn't that meant he was already in love with somebody previously?
No, wrong.
"You. Y/n, you are my first."

Colson is immovable in the back of the uber. The driver waits patiently while Luna calls Benny. She can't lift Colson sober, let alone walk them while they're both drunk.
Benny comes to save the day, helping Luna and Colson inside and the upstairs. He drops a drunken Colson on the bed to Luna's grateful, slurred Thank Yous.
Colson knocks out again once he hits the bed. She pulls both their clothes off before falling hard next to him. Drunk and tired, she passes out quickly.
--------------------------------------------------
They sleep late. Colson waking before Luna. He slips out of bed and into the bathroom for a morning piss. Walking out of the bathroom, Luna's naked body in bed catches his eye.
She's so fucking beautiful...." He thinks to himself. "Fuck, I don't remember coming home last night..." Knowing he has to fly out today... "I'll book a later flight and let her sleep for a bit..." He decides. Not knowing of she's coming to Cleveland with him or not.
He pulls on black joggers and a black T. He heads downstairs for coffee. Leaving Luna to snooze away.
--------------------------------------------------
Benny and Slim are in the kitchen.
"Yo." Colson greets them tiredly while grabbing coffee.
"Yo." They both reply.
"Luna got me FUCKED UP yesterday." He says into his cup after sitting down with his friends at the table. He sparks a joint.
Benny laughs. "I know, Dawg. You couldn't even stand. She had to call me to get you into the house."
"Fuck." Colson rubs his face, trying to circulate blood through it. He passes it to Slim.
"Where'd y'all go?" Slim asks, hitting the joint. He's seen Kells hungover before but this is Top 10.
"Everywhere." A smile plays on Colson's lips as he remembers yesterday. "We walked around Downtown, sharing a bottle, hitting different famous spots." He yawns. "It was REALLY fucking cool. SHIT!!!" He pulls his pant leg up. Grinning, he shows them his new ink. "And got we tattooed!!" He laughs.
Looking up from the blonde haired woman in the moon Kells now has tattooed on is calf, Slim asks as he hands of the joint to Benny. "What she get?"
Taking a second to remember, he grins. "A machine gun."
Slim shakes his head and laughs. "Y'all motherfuckers might as well just get each other's names tattooed on you."
"Nah... There's no originality in that." Luna startles them as she comes into the kitchen for coffee. She doesn't sleep well without Colson.
Wearing one of his long T shirts and her sunglasses, she slides in next to Colson at the table.
"Morning, Bunny." She kisses him on the cheek. "How are you guys?" She asks, sipping her coffee before she lays her head down on the table.
She's met with a "Good." from Slim and a "You aight, Brooklyn?" from Benny.
"Mhm. Just slowly dying." She says lifting her head off the table. "Thanks for your help last night." She answers Benny, taking her glasses off to rub her eyes for a minute before she puts them back on. Benny passes her the joint
"No problem." He laughs.
"Was I really that bad?" Colson asks.
"Yes." Benny and Luna state automatically making Slim and Colson laugh. The joint continues making it's rounds.
"I don't know, Man. I didn't see you." Slim continues to laugh, putting his hands up.
Luna lays her head against Colson's arm. "What's the last thing you remember?" She asks him.
"Tattoos. No. The graveyard. No. Dinner. I remember eating. I had a steak and mashed potatoes, right?" He looks down, asking her.
She closes her eyes behind her glasses trying to remember what she ate herself. "I don't know. I forget what I ate myself. Do you remember giving your number out to the fan?" She lifts her head.
"What!?" He asks confused.
"Yeah, some kid asked us for a picture and you gave him your number, telling him to text it to you. Check your phone." She tells him. The joint's made its way back to her. It's small. She hits it once before putting it out.
He does and sure a shit there's a crazy picture of Luna laughing with Colson's head cut off from a random number.
"You almost shook the uber driver to death when Bad Things came on too." She laughs. "You were so fucked uuuup."
"How were you not as fucked up as I was??" He asks her, puzzled.
"Because I banged that Add earlier..." She tells him.
"So did I?" He argues.
"You do them almost everyday, I don't." She shrugs.
"Whatever." He yawns again, kissing the side of her head. "You got plans?" He asks her.
"Me?" She looks around, confused.
"Yeah, Asshole." He laughs at her.
Her glasses are back off, rubbing her face now. "Uhhhh... I have to be in Minneapolis by Monday morning. Me and Ash have a radio interview and then she's got that free show at The Armory. We've gonna perform Nightmare for the first time." She tells him while yawning herself.
"You don't need to rehearse?" He asks her.
"Enh. It's one song. We'll run through it Monday beforehand." Luna tells Colson.
"Wanna come to Cleveland with me? I'm gonna have dinner with Case and Em tonight then take Case to see Captain Marvel tomorrow."
"Uhm. Fuck yes. She's only the greatest super hero in the MCU."
"I don't know about all that..." Colson dismisses her.
THIS leads to a 10 minute argument over who's better in the MCU between Luna, Colson and Slim.
"She has all the power of Tony's suit in her BO-DY." Luna argues, rolling her eyes.
"Y'all are some fucking nerds." Benny laughs at them.
Luna sucks her teeth. "I'm done arguing. You all are dumb and should know by now." She quotes Beyoncé. "Who run the world? Girls." She tells Colson and Slim flatly as she gets up for more coffee to their laughter.
Sitting back down, she lights another joint. "You book a flight yet?" She asks Colson.
"Nah, I'm a do it right now." He tells her as she passes the joint.
They chat more, passing the joint around. Everyone else is flying back to Cleveland this coming week too. The tour kicks off in less than 15 days. They'll run for a month, take a break and then hop back on. It's gonna be a long, exciting summer they all agree.
Standing at the sink together, Colson tells Luna "Stark would kick Danvers ass." With a smirk.
"I'll kick your fucking ass." She replies, cocking her head back and biting his arm.
"AHHHH!!" He laughs and goes to grab her but she's taken off.
He catches her in the living room. Throwing her over his shoulder.
Giggling she's tries to get out of his grasp. "Get off meeeee!!" She cries pulling her shirt over her ass as he carries her upstairs.
"No!" He smacks her hands away, then slaps her ass. "It's shower time." He tells her to her sighing submission.
--------------------------------------------------
In the shower Colson washes Luna's new tattoo. "I fucking love it." He tells her, kissing the middle of her back after rinsing her off. "Your shoulder's looking good too."
This catches her off gaurd. They don't really talk about her shoulder. The night it happened being a sore subject for them both.
"Yeah? What makes you say that?" She asks.
"I'm just looking at it. You're supposed to see the Doc again on the 15th but we'll be on tour. I'm gonna have Ash figure out where we'll be so I can have him meet us." He tells her.
His concern melts her heart. Turning around she kisses him passionately. After breaking away, she runs both thumbs alongside his jawline. Staring into his eyes, she tells him she loves him before kissing him deeply again.
Their kisses make his dick grow. He moves his mouth to her neck. Gripping her body tight under the warm water, he kisses her all over as she moans and pulls at his hair.
"God, I want you off your fucking period." He says, sucking on her wet body.
"I know. We should be good by Monday." She breathes heavily.
"I want you NOW." He says firmly as he spins her around carefully. Leaning into the wall, she bends over for him. He runs his finger down the middle of her back, giving her goosebumps before he slides his dick inside of her.
Luna moans at the size of Colson's cock. Her nails scratch the shower wall as he thrusts himself into her. She's always been greedy with his dick, pushing him deeper into her with her hips. Fucking him backwards.
"Kiittenn..." He moans, pulling her hair back with one hand as the other rests on her hip. Pushing off the wall she slams her ass harder into him. Feeling her walls clench around him and body flush, she bucks harder.
"I'm gonna FUCKING cum, Colson!" She pants as her legs start to shake before her body explodes and her mind goes blank.
As she cums, she hears Colson in the background cum with her. Head spinning, she rests it on the shower wall. Colson lays his warm face on her bare back.
Both breathing heavy, trying to catch their breathes. They stay there for a moment as usual, exchanging I love yous and a kiss to her back as always.
"My fucking vagina is gonna fall off one of these days." Luna thinks as her head still dances from her latest orgasm.
Out of the shower Colson dresses Luna's shoulder and puts Eucerin on her tattoo.
She catches him smiling in the mirror.
"What?" She asks, amused.
"Nothing..." He meets her eye through the mirror making him grin "You got me tattooed on you."
Luna raises her eyebrows and puts up 2 fingers. Chuckling, she says "Twice."
"Twice." He nods, still grinning.
She leans her neck back as he bends down from behind to kiss her before both smiling as the continue on.
--------------------------------------------------
Having checked her phone before leaving, there was a group text from Pete with Ashley. Details on locking them into next Saturday. As Colson and Luna chat on their flight to Cleveland, she remembers text.
"FUCK, I haven't mentioned shit to him yet." She thinks, irritated by her forgetfulness.
"Hey!" She interrupts whatever he's saying. "I'm sorry, that was rude but I need to tell you before I forget again."
"Hunh?" He asks her.
"Uhm. Nightmare got booked for SNL next Saturday. I requested you and the guys over the house band and got it.... I probably should've asked you first but will you do it?" She asks him, giving him a beaming 'please bunny' smile.
Colson laughs. "How do you forget SNL?" He asks her "No, like seriously?"
"I don't know? It was more Ash and Petey pulling it together. Like, she's co-hosting and shit. I'm just popping in for Alabama." She explains.
"Why aren't you hosting?" He asks her, not thinking.
Luna recoils from Colson. "Doooo you know who I am? I am NOT trying to be all up in that shit. That's totally Ash, Man." Luna inhales with eyes wide looking at him like he's crazy.
"Yeaaah, I guess that was a dumb question." He laughs at himself.
"Yeah." She confirms, nodding while laughing with him. "Sooooooo... SNL next Saturday?" She asks again.
"Oh... Fuck yeah!" He exclaims, remembering their initial conversation.
Shooting finger guns at him, she teases while smiling "Ha! Ha! You forgot too!!"
"Fuck you." He laughs. Then is back with "SNL. Cool... Yeah." Nodding at her with an amused smile. "Why'd you ask for us?"
He's always inquisitive of why she does shit.
"Cuz you cut the record with me. Duh." She laughs, leaning up to kiss him on the cheek. He side eyes her. "..... And you're my boyfriend. Youuu dealt with the craziness that came along with all of that. Helping get mine and Ash's vision out there to help people, so of course" she reaches for his hand "I'm always gonna ask to have you with me for something big, when it comes to Nightmare. To me, that's as much you guy's record as ours. We all created it together and considering the context of it, I think that's important as hell. Plus, you're who I feel comfortable playing it with." She tells him with a shrug and a honest expression. Sweetness twinkling in her blue eyes.
Colson smiles and leans in to kiss her.
"I love your logic." He tells her.
They're due to land soon and are headed directly to Casie and Emma's for dinner. Anticipating the quick switch over, Luna's dressed casually in black skinnies and an oversized sweater.
There's never any shortage of conversation between Luna and Colson.
She goes on to ask about Casie coming to participate in the SNL gig too. She was in the video after all...
Colson telling her they should ask Emma first. Luna thanking him with excited kisses before they prepare to land.
--------------------------------------------------
Arriving for dinner, Casie answers the door excitedly. Happy to see them both.
"DADDY!! LUNA!!" She shouts, throwing her arms around both of their legs.
Laughing, Colson scoops her up to kiss her Hello to her delighted squeals. "DAAADDYYY!!!" She laughs out with him.
Luna's stuck in the door frame, enjoying watching them.
"Hey!!!" Emma calls out, coming in from the kitchen. "I'm sorry it's a mess, you guys, let her in the door.." She laughs coming to help Luna.
It is not a mess.
Everyone's giggling as they finally come inside the house.
"How are you?" Luna and Emma greet each other warmly, both asking about the other.
Colson and Casie are rambunctious. Wrestling all over the floor.
"Wanna go into the kitchen with me? Away from these crazies." Emma laughs to Luna, pointing at the handsome man playing with his child on the floor.
Luna could watch Casie and Colson together all day. Before Emma asks, she had grabbed a shot of them that makes her heart skip a beat.
"Sure!" Luna agrees, popping her camera away before following Emma into the kitchen. Leaving her heart with them.
--------------------------------------------------
Emma offers Luna wine, which she happily accepts. Asking if she can help, Emma says yes, please, with the salad. Looking at Emma, Luna gets a little nervous as she peels and cuts up vegetable.
"We haven't spoken since brunch." Luna starts off. "I never got to ask your opinion of Nightmare...."
Emma's fussing with pasta water. "Oh! I'm sorry!!! Congratulations! I know it's doing really well!!" Emma turns to hug Luna.
While hugging Emma back, Luna starts to say "No.. No.. No.. How did you feel seeing Casie in it? As she pulls out of the hug to look a the little girl's mother.
Emma smiles at Luna's thoughtfulness. "I LOVED it!" She tells her with a squeeze before both turning back to their food duties.
Emma continuing.
"I think it was a really great experience for her to meet all those women and to know she's apart of such a powerful song. Because GIRL, we bang it when we rage!!!" Emma's laughter and candour reassures a now laughing Luna.
"That's really great." Luna beams. "I have another question... We got booked for SNL next Saturday and I was hoping you'd let her be onstage with us. Colson and the boys are our band so she should feel totally comfortable... If she wants to do it....." Luna's talking quickly as she does when she has ideas buzzing.
Emma can feel Luna's nervousness as she slices through a cucumber. She finds it endearing.
"What would she do?" Emma asks.
"I figure, draw her own picture or sign and at the end hold it up between Ash and I. Her own thoughts, her own ideas about the song. Unfiltered." Luna explains her vision, tossing the cucumbers in the the salad
Emma gets it, nodding. She really likes that Luna is interested and mindful of Casie. How she thinks to include her in important, appropriate ways.
"We'll ask her at dinner." Emma tells Luna to her giddiness.
Cheesing, Luna kisses Emma on the cheek to her surprise. "THANKS!!" She exclaims to Emma's chuckle.
Setting the table together, they touch base on more details. Casie fly out with Colson and Luna Friday after school. They'll all stay with Luna's grandmother and be back Sunday. In time for Casie to be settled and prepared for school on Monday. Emma's content with the plan.
"I'll be watching in support!" She beams at Luna.
--------------------------------------------------
Dinner is delicious.
Emma made a Ricotta & Spinach stuffed Chicken Parmesan with pasta.
They enjoy wine bread and salad with it.
Emma and Luna mention SNL to an imprssed Colson and confused Casie. Once explaining it to Casie, she's over the moon. Colson still impressed that Luna talked to Emma herself. He appreciates Luna's independency and the women's growing friendship.
They finish up dinner, Colson helping Emma clean up as Luna helps Casie pack.
Hugs, kisses and Thank Yous are given before Colson, Casie and Luna head to his house.
--------------------------------------------------
Back at Colson's, they change, get comfortable, find a movie to watch but have no snacks. Changing again, off to the super market they go.
--------------------------------------------------
The three of them are silly in the store. Playing White Tiles are Lava. Each hopping from square to square, Luna and Colson catch eyes. Smiling  at Casie's happiness.
Luna hides behind as display case. Scaring both Casie and Colsin to their delight as they run away. Luna catching and tickling the giddy little girl.
They grab ice cream, cones, toppings and head to the bakery for chocolate chip cookies. Luna jump teasing a shrieking Casie along the way.
At the bakery, Luna stands very still with her hot chocolate.
To Casie's leeriness, the little girl creeps closer and closer as Luna pretends to stare off. Once within in reach, she bops Casie's arm.
"YOU'RE IT!!" Luna declares to the little girl's squeals and giggles as they play tag. Luna letting her catch her easily but always acting shocked when she does.
"They're too fucking cute!!" Colson grins to himself. Love washing over him as he watches his girls play around and enjoy each other.

Back at house, ice cream-cookie concoctions in hand, the three of them curl up in the couch. Casie in the middle.
They pop in The Emoji Movie. Colson and Luna laugh their asses off along with Casie. It's not long before she falls asleep between them. Resting comfortably against her dad. Colson reaches his arm across the top of the couch, touching Luna. She looks up to his smile and an I love you. She returns both.
They finish the movie together. Colson carrying Casie to her bed.
Coming back to find Luna, he guides her to his bedroom. This is her first time being here.
They cuddle together getting high, talking about Casie, SNL and other things.
They finish the joint and he cradles her face. Kissing her sweetly, thanking her for coming, telling her how much he loves her and is so grateful for how she loves Casie and gets along with Emma.
Heart and body flushed from his words. She kisses him deep into his soul. Exchanging her love and gratitude as well. Telling him there's no place she'd rather be with sweet kisses.
They light another joint. Cuddling, burning and watching Big Mouths before falling asleep together contently in each other's arms.
