FLUFF alphabet - e.d.
Tumblr media
Summary: Just a cute little fluff alphabet with Ethan
Warnings: none except a whole lot of fluff
Word count: 1963
A = Affection
Ethan absolutely loves showing affection. He does it all the time. Maybe he’s holding your hand, or kissing your cheek, but this boy always has to touch you in some way.
B = Baby
He obviously wants kids some day. Ever since he saw you play with his baby cousin at Christmas, he can’t get the idea out of his head. He wonders if it’ll have your sparkling eyes and his cute nose, or your beautiful, wavy hair and his pink plump lips. No matter what, he knows he’ll love that baby forever.
C = Cuddling
You already know this boy loves his cuddles. He might not want to admit it but this boy loves cuddling (and being cuddled). On the couch, in the car, in bed or on a beautiful flower field. It doesn’t matter where, but this boy will cuddle. He loves to wrap you in his big, strong arms, and pull you into his chest. You guys spend hours just laying in each others arms, talking about all and nothing.
D = Dates
You guys go on dates all the time. Wether it’s small dates at home in bed, or fancy ones in the expensive Hollywood restaurants. You have mandatory date night every Saturday, because it’s very important for the both of you that you spend time together. It also really helps, if you’ve had a stressfull week.
E = Equality
You can’t really say that any of you wears the pants in the relationship. You’re very good at making mutual decisions, but sometimes you use the ‘puppy eyes’ card, to get your way. Even though it’s pretty equal, who makes the call, Ethan is the dominant one when it comes to the bedroom;)
F = First ‘I love you’
Ethan was the one who said it first. He had randomly blurted it out, while you guys were having a playfight. At first you thought you heard wrong, but after looking into his eyes, and seeing that there were nothing but love, you knew it was true. Now you don’t go a day without saying it at least once. You’re very verbal when it comes to love, because one of your biggest fears, is losing someone you love.
G = Grayson
Grayson is your best friend. You love him just as much as you love Ethan, but in a friendly way (obviously). You three do everything together, and you know each other inside out. People often ask Ethan if he ever gets worried, that Grayson will steal you away from him, but the answer is always no, because Ethan knows you're his, and so do you.
H = Holding hands
Whenever E is close to you, he has to hold your hand. It doesn’t even have to be like full on hand holding, it can just be holding onto one of your fingers, while you're strolling through target. Or playing with your fingers while you're watching a movie, on a stormy night. Also when you're making love, he finds himself reaching for your hand, when he’s nearing his high. Ethan is, and will always be, a sucker for holding hands.
I = Impressions
Ethan was blown away from the first time he saw you. The second he laid his eyes, on that beautiful face, he knew you would spend the rest of your lives together. Of course you thought he was just another fuck boy at first, but as you got to know him, you learned that he’s actually the sweetest kid ever.
J = Jokes
As we know, Ethan loves pulling pranks. Wether it’s on you, Grayson or some third person, he’s always doing some sort of prank. He once pulled a cheating prank on you, and you got so sad he completely stopped pulling pranks on you. Poor Grayson has to take twice as many now:(
K = Kissing
Ethan is always in for a kiss. Doesn’t matter if it’s a full on make out session, or if it’s just a quick peck on the cheek. Ethan loves your lips, and he’s not afraid to show it. 90% of his photos on instagram, are of you kissing, so I think it’s safe to say that he doesn’t care about PDA.
L = LA
You guys love LA, you really do, but sometimes it’s just nice to get away from everything for a while. Sometimes you go on roadtrips to beautiful places, and other times you fly back to New Jersey for a little time out.
M = Memories
You love making memories together. Like that night Ethan woke you up at 3 am, to go on a hike to the Hollywood sign. Or that time when he tried to bake you a cake for your birthday, but ended up almost burning the kitchen down, so you and Gray had to buy a cake from Target.It doesn’t even have to be big moments, like when he asked you to be his girlfriend, it can also be small moments, like when you came home from a long day of work, and Ethan had done all the laundry even though it was your turn. It’s not always the big things that stick. Sometimes the smaller they are, the more we remember them.
N = No
Ethan can hardly say no to his princess. She doesn’t have to use the puppy eyes that often, before he gives in completely. But he can’t help it. This girl has him wrapped around her finger, and he knows it.
O = Orange
Whenever you’re with Ethan, it’s like you're exploding with colors. Even on the darkest, most grey days, he manages to get all the colors to shine through. Your cheeks turn pink at the smallest things, and when you kiss, it’s like you can taste the rainbow.
P = Polaroids
Apparently it’s not enough to document, all the stuff you guys do on video, but Ethan has his baby blue polaroid camera with him at all times. He always catches the moment. He keeps all the pictures in a box under the bed. It has all kinds of photos. You cuddled all up in a blanket after you had fallen asleep on his lap, or a picture of you post-sex with wild hair, and a huge grin plastered on your face. 
Q = Questions
Being in the spotlight, you guys are constantly being asked tons of questions. Like if you’re engaged, or if it’s true that Ethan was spotted coming up with a chick at the beach yesterday (which was actually you). One time someone started a rumour that you were pregnant, after you posted a picture of you in your sweats. Needless to say the media had a field day that day.
R = Reassure 
Ethan had always been very insecure, so you constantly had to reassure him that you loved him, and only him, whenever you would get too friendly with a guy, for his liking. Although that’s just another reason why you love him.
S = Sad
Just like good days, bad days are bound to happen. We all have our ups and downs, but you guys are just lucky enough, that you have each other, so you don’t have to go through the tough times alone. The other person is always there, welcoming with open arms. It’s not always easy getting up after falling down, but it’s 10x easier when you have someone else to help you.
T = Trips
You guys love to go on trips. Ethan got this stupid idea from pinterest, that he’ll kiss you in every continent (so far you’ve kissed on 4). You also have a map in your room, where you put a red pin in all the places you’ve visited together, and your goal is to fill out as many as possible. Travelling is always fun, but it’s 10x better when you do it with someone you love.
U = Universe
You used to be one of those girls who thought love at first sight and soulmates were bullshit, but after you met Ethan you’re certain all of it is true. It’s like you’ve been missing a piece of yourself all your life, but when you met Ethan you finally felt whole. He was that missing piece., and you're sure you're meant to be.
V = Vaunt
Ethan loves to show you off. He wants everyone to know you're his baby, and oh boy they sure do. When you're in public he makes sure you're always within arms reach, and whenever you do something, he's always the one cheering the loudest. He's your biggest supporter and everyone knows it. And of course it never hurts if he makes sure to leave a hickey or two before you leave the house;)
W = Wedding
Ethan is convinced you're going to get married, and you are too. He doesn’t know when, but he knows that he’s going to make you his forever. Sometimes he catches himself looking at wedding rings through a store window, or he finds himself looking for venues. He can’t help but imagine how it’ll be on that unforgettable day. You would be wearing a beautiful white dress, gorgeous as ever, and he’ll get tears in his eyes when you walk down the aisle. You’ll dance to your favourite song, and when the wedding is done, and all the guests have left, you’ll go back to the hotel, and you’ll stay up for hours talking about all and nothing. Ethan isn’t certain about a lot of things in life, but on thing he does know, is that you’ll be together forever.
X = Xylophone
You had always been a fan of Harry Styles, ever since the one direction days, so when Ethan heard he was playing in LA, he rushed to buy tickets. You got them for your birthday, and you almost started crying out of excitement (let’s just say Ethan definitely got a thank you for the gift if you know what I mean) When the day finally came, and you were about to leave to the venue, you were almost bursting with excitement. Ethan couldn’t help but smile at how cute you were. You sang your heart out to every single song he played, but one song stuck with you more than the others. When Harry was singing Meet me in the hallway, Ethan couldn’t help but stare at you. You were just so beautiful, how did he get so lucky? When you looked back at him with those beautiful eyes of yours, he knew that he loved you. At first you were shocked that he said it, of course you loved him back, but it was just so unexpected. You almost burst into tears, and grabbed his face and kissed him. You don’t think you've said ‘I love you* as many times as you did that night. That song will always hold a special place in your heart.
Y = yearning
Ethan is very clingy, so he has a hard time staying away from you for too long. One time you went away for two days, and he called you, crying and saying that he missed you, on the first night. Of course you would rather spend time in your boyfriends arms, than be at a boring college lecture, but Ethan takes it to a whole new level. But of course that’s just one of the reasons why you love him.
Z = Zebra
Ethan has always been a big pet fan, as well as you. You always talked about getting a pet, but that was kinda hard with Grayson in the house. But you guys made a deal that when you had your own house, you would buy all kinds of pets. Even a zebra!

Life in Rockland 2
[Life in Rockland is a creative writing project utilizing a specific OC in place of the MC for the “Rumors of Rockland” series.  I do not own any part of the Rockland universe, only my OC.  Fair warning, creative writing is not my forte.  This is a means of practice and a fun way to enjoy the content further].
Sasha’s in a much better mood than a few hours ago.  As she settles in for the night though, she’s faced with a small predicament that grows into a much deeper pondering about the day’s events.
Setting: After game events
Play: Rumors of Rockland- Article 2
[Spoilers below for RoR Article 2]
Sasha’s Choices:
[Get Help]
[I get the impression people can get away with a lot around here]
“Speaking”
Thinking
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The sound of tapping filled the room.
Sasha wasn’t typing, just lightly tapping on the top of her laptop while sitting at her desk.
I would have called or texted him by now.  Well I mean it’s late, won’t hurt if it’s not today.  God I wanted to talk about everything though, but…
She sighed and pushed her laptop to the side.  She shifted her chair over to the other side of the desk and reached over to pull a small pot close to her.  
“Hello Hydra~ You’re always a good listener.  Mind hearing me out?  I got a little problem.  It’s supposed to be good to talk to your plants anyway,” she chuckled.
It was a small venus flytrap.  Nothing extravagant, but she loved the bright green stalks and red mouths.  All wide open with the exception of one.
“Oh look at that. Looks like you already found yourself some dinner.  You’re the best bug repellent a girl could ask for.”
She gently petted the closed mouth.
“So see, this town is definitely small.  Pierce wasn’t kidding about running into people again.  I just didn’t expect THIS kind of situation to happen so soon.”
“So let’s run over the details again.  I told Pierce there was a raging alcoholic last time I went to this place.  He said dude was probably being emotional and just blowing smoke, but I should probably keep my distance from wild cards like him anyway.  Yet I ended up having a pretty good time with Avery and Callum tonight.  So I’d like to say bad first impression that led to a misunderstanding and all’s good now.  At least…that’s what I’d LIKE to say.”
Sasha sighed.
Fuck I feel awful even having these thoughts after Avery and Callum were nice enough to get me more familiar with people.
“It’s the middle part that’s killing me a bit here.  I guess I just kind of pushed it to the back of my brain while settling down in the bar.”
“Okay first of all, I don’t regret my actions.  I would hate myself if I hadn’t done SOMETHING.  Callum’s such a sweet guy, and I really feel like he was about to get beaten up.  No offense to him, but he doesn’t exactly look like a fighter.  It was also 2-on-1 anyway.  God, what if they would have killed him out of prejudice?!  Am I overreacting? Maybe, but I don’t know.”  
“But hey, it’s not like I would have made the odds any better if I had joined in myself.  I don’t really have any fighting skills, and something tells me two grown men aren’t going to be that intimidated by 5’4” woman. Not to mention, I don’t sound intimidating at all.  If I had at least SOMEONE else with me, maybe…did that once with Pierce.”
Sasha started reminiscing.
“There actually was one time where Pierce and I came across someone being hassled near a bar.  But Pierce and I approached pretending to be the dude’s friends.  We just made our voices VERY loud about how were happy to see the guy and then said something along the lines of ‘Dude come on, you’re so late.  Everyone’s been waiting, stop holding things up.’  Think we were pretending to be in a hurry.  Pierce literally just cut by the jerks, grabbed the guy’s arm and we just all walked together to the bar while continuing our conversation about our very made up plans.  I was dead afraid those guys were going to jump us from behind, but it never happened. The dude we pulled out of there was definitely grateful.  I thought it was cool, but Pierce told me later that method won’t always work for everyone.  We just got lucky that the guys we came across were the type that didn’t like attention being drawn to their shitty attitudes.  Pierce said some people won’t give a damn though about who sees their nasty side.  So with that in mind and the fact I can’t really act as smoothly as Pierce can anyway…yeah no way I could have jumped in to help Callum without backup.”
That’s a VERY different approach than the one Avery took too…
“Look I don’t know why I didn’t think to just call the police.  I either wasn’t thinking, or I just thought they’d blow me off for it just being drunken bar nonsense that wasn’t even happening in the establishment.”
Now it doesn’t sound like people call the cops much anyway in Rockland.
“I didn’t know Whesker wasn’t there.  I just saw Avery and well…things turned out okay.  But how was I supposed to know he was going to nearly beat the two drunks to death tonight.  It’s not like I care for garbage like that, I just think personally playing executioner to some folks without attempting to even dissolve the situation peacefully first is just…”  Sasha groaned.
“Okay, calm down Sasha. Maybe you’re just overexaggerating the situation.  Just because you heard…bones cracking, doesn’t necessarily mean he would have gone all the way, right?  People can sometimes just be fragile.”  
He said he wanted to snap someone’s neck last week.  He’s not all bark and no bite.
“Fuck, stop Sasha!” She muttered to herself and placed her head in her hands.
“Avery was protecting his friend.  The drunks were homophobic and might have hurt Callum.  Maybe they would have even killed him!  Not like they didn’t earn at least a punch in the face.  Callum’s safe now, and both Avery and Callum treated me so well tonight.  Why the hell am I being so judgmental?”
Because I almost watched two men get murdered in front of me?
“Ridiculous.”
Sounded like stuff like this happens under the radar a lot.
Sasha got up from her desk and heading towards the bathroom. She turned the sink on and started splashing water on her face.  She took a few deep breaths and looked in the mirror.
“Hey, you’re new. Feeling a little jittery is all. You’ve never really known much anywhere other than your own home for most of your life.  It’s a lot of new experiences at once.  …Why the hell am I talking in second person?”
Sasha left the bathroom and sat back in front of Hydra again.
“I’m the new person here. Everyone else has been here for a long time.  I’m more like a guest or intruder at this point.  Sounds like things will only go south for me if I get too nosy or mess with the wrong people.  When have EITHER of those ever been a problem for me?  Hell, I never even drank underage.  Pierce calls me too boring at times too,”  She chuckled.
“Worst crime I feel like I’ve ever done is jaywalking.  And yeah, I know if there’s ever trouble, I’m the type to go to the proper authorities for help.  Whether it was work, school or town life.  But I’m an adult, and if this place is more of a ‘you take care of your own business’ type of deal, I need to respect that and take responsibility for myself.  MOST of the people I’ve come across have been nothing but friendly towards me.  Maybe I need to stop jumping to conclusions. There’s no way that I’m going to be scared off back home by stuff like this.”
I won’t lie, it’ll hurt my pride a little if I move back home just because I didn’t try to fit in.
“Well I’m not sure if I’m being open minded here or too lenient out of naivety.  I AM sure that Pierce would raise an eyebrow though. There’s no way I could explain away how I knew to call out to Avery in the bar.  I didn’t say his name last week, but he’ll remember the alcoholic I mentioned.  Now if this was in our town, Pierce would probably make some kind of weird joke about this.  But I think…he wouldn’t admit it but I think he’s been a little anxious lately that he’s not here with me to watch my back.”
She pet one of Hydra’s heads.
“When we’re together, he likes to poke fun at me and take me to my places that sometimes aren’t in my comfort zone.  But that’s only if he’s confident enough himself that he can get us out of a tight bind we might get into.  He never took to me to anyplace extremely dangerous or introduced me to people he didn’t trust.  He doesn’t know anyone in Rockland.  I’m sure telling him how the possible alcoholic can possibly beat people to death would put him on edge.  Especially since I’ve run into Avery twice now.  Pierce would be nervous about that proximity.”
So I’m fighting between relying on my hometown friend’s judgement and giving new people a chance.  Not to mention putting my own judgement skills to the test here.
Sasha leaned back and hummed to herself.
“So here’s the story. Callum was getting hassled in the alleyway.  I called out to his friend from last week who was having a bad time.  Out of necessity of course.  He came and knocked the drunks away and then Callum, Avery and I had a good time going over the different citizens in town.  There we go.  Short and simple.  Not even a lie.  Why was I even overthinking all this?  If Pierce presses, I’ll just say Avery can look scary.  Dude IS pretty tall too, probably can stare off a lot of people with just a glare.”
Definitely believe he’s not to be messed with.
“I missed the VERY beginning when Avery entered the alleyway anyway.  Callum may have sounded chipper, but who’s to say Avery hadn’t spotted one of the dudes trying to pull a knife or something.  If you’re gonna beat a knife and two guys with just fists, you BETTER act fast.”
Sasha nodded to herself.
“Everything’s fine.  Even the drunks at the end of the day will recover. Hopefully learned a lesson and become better people, but that’s up to them.”
She looked at the clock. It really WAS late.  Sasha stretched her arms and headed over to the closet, looking for some nightwear to change into.
“…but seriously, who the hell is Kinley?”

one qr fake dating, coming right up! unnötiger flachwitz
you never need to specify💙💙💙💙
kasinara on a fake date with real feelings under the cut or on ao3
“Sinara, a word?” He stood in the doorway to the training room, clearly having waited for the exercise to be over.
She threw the other soldiers a look that kept moving the ones who had looked like they considered lingering. She crossed over to Kasius. She’d really rather be heading to the showers.“Yes?”
He smiled at her.“Did training go well?”
“What do you want?”she asked in lieu of an answer.
“Are you doing anything the night after next?” His smile was wavering for some reason.
Sinara frowned.“You know I’m not. You said you didn’t need a guard. You said Canavan’s security would be enough.”
“It is, I am sure,”Kasius said.“It’s just - I realised I made a mistake with the invitation. That is, I RSVP’d with a plus one. I don’t actually have a plus one.”
“What’s that got to do with -”she started, and broke off.“You want me to go to the engagement party of your so-called friend you described as ‘basically Faulnak, but with an ego even less deserved’?”
“Yes. And pretend we’ve been dating for at least a few months, because I filled that card out a while ago.” He stepped closer, taking her hand and putting on a pleading look.“Please? I’ll owe you one.”
“As if you don’t owe me about three dozen already,”she retorted, but didn’t pull her hand away.
“There’ll be food,”Kasius added.
Sinara sighed.“Fine. But I’m not going shopping for this, and I’m not making an effort to learn any of your friends’ names.”
“Thank you,”he said, letting go of her hand to pull out his comm screen instead, pulling up a picture.“And you don’t have to worry about anything. I already ordered the dress, I should be here tomorrow morning and -”
She didn’t so much as glance at the screen.
“You already bought a dress?” Sinara rolled her eyes. This was so typical.“What if I had said no?”
He gave her a rueful smile.“I would have been sad, dateless, and out a thousand units?”
“A thousand units?”she echoed.
“Well, it’s not that formal.” Kasius shrugged. Then he seemed to notice the look on her face.“Oh. That’s expensive? I mean - of course it is. I knew that. Please still come?”
She should have looked at the damn picture. Maybe then she could have convinced him of a different dress. But now it was too late for any of that.
It was light blue, the floor-length skirt far too puffed out for her liking, the bodice form fitting and laced in the back in such a way it didn’t even close completely, the sleeves some sort of mesh with small flower applications. It was exactly the sort of thing Kasius’ idiot friends would wear.
“You look beautiful,”Kasius said, and Sinara snorted in derision.“I look like Isana.”
She had met the woman a few times before, not that the noble had ever once bothered to acknowledge her presence, trying desperately to somehow catch Kasius’ attention. She had aspirations of marrying into the Emperor’s family, but didn’t have the name to marry Faulnak. Which, of course, was entirely unrelated to Sinara’s dislike of her.
Now it was at Kasius to laugh.“Isana wishes.” He offered her his arm.“Are you ready to go?”
“As ready as I’ll ever be,”Sinara said as she linked arms with him.
Why she always agreed to his silly ideas was beyond her.
They had arrived fashionably late, which meant they mostly went unnoticed on their arrival, the festivities in full swing already.
“We better not have missed the food,”Sinara muttered to Kasius as they made their way over to the hosting couple. Canavan and - his fiancée. True to her word, Sinara had not learned her name.
That did not stop the woman from embracing her as well as Kasius.“It’s so good to meet you! Sinara, isn’t it? Kasius just can’t stop talking about you.”
“Only good things, I hope?”she managed, taking a subtle step back. The polite lies she had expected, the hugging was a horrifying surprise.
“Of course,”Kasius interjected, wrapping his arm around her waist and pulling her close against his side.“Excuse us. We’ll go dance before you embarrass me further, Ria.”
Ria laughed goodnaturedly, already turning to greet the next wellwishers as Kasius guided Sinara to the dancefloor.
Dancing? There had been talk of food, not of dancing.
She realised her fingers were digging into Kasius’ arm only when he gently pulled her hand away.“You look terrified. Please smile before someone thinks I threatened you to come here.”
She gave him a scathing look in reply.
“I am aware I couldn’t,”Kasius said.“They aren’t. So please try to seem like you’re enjoying yourself.”
Sinara gave him a smile that looked genuine enough if you didn’t actually know her.“Or we could just not dance?”
“If we don’t dance, they’re more likely to come talk to us.”
She shuddered.“Let’s go dance, then.”
Three songs in, Sinara had to admit dancing was actually quite nice.
The music was slow and soft, allowing Kasius to keep up a constant stream of snide little remarks about the other guests to amuse her, and Sinara to point out each glaring fault she found with the venue’s security detail.
Kasius was just whispering another comment in her ear, his warm breath against her skin sending a tingling down her spine, when she locked eyes with Isana over his shoulder.
Isana didn’t have the decency to look away at being caught, sullenly sipping her wine, glaring daggers at Sinara.
“Isana’s staring,”Sinara informed Kasius.
He shrugged.“So let her stare. Who cares?”
“I was thinking we’d give her something to stare at?”
“Oh?” Kasius looked at her somewhat uncertainly. She let her gaze drop to his lips for a lingering moment, and when she met his eyes again the uncertainty was gone. Instead, his eyes were sparkling with mirth.“I like the way you think, Sinara.”
She had already forgotten all about Isana by the times his lips met hers.
The food was even better than she had expected, course after course served by a flock of waiters. She was vaguely aware that most other guests only ate a fraction of each dish, but she wasn’t about to let some strange rich people notion of propriety stop her from eating. And Kasius didn’t seem to mind, anyways.
They had arrived at dessert when she did stop mid-dish, leaning closer to Kasius, lowering her voice as much as she could while still being heard,“There’s a stone in my cake.”
For all she knew, that could be some sort of new craze with the upper classes. You never knew with those people. Maybe she was supposed to eat it?
“A gemstone?”he questioned, as if it mattered what sort of stone they’d put in the cake.
“It’s purple,”she supplied, digging it out with her fork and dropping it onto Kasius’ plate.
“Oh dear,”he said.
Before she could ask what was wrong, Ria had already let out a delighted scream across the table, drawing the attention of the whole gathering.“Oh! Sinara and Kasius are next!”
For one wild moment Sinara thought they were somehow being threatened, but Kasius seemed too calm for that to be true. Instead he laughed at the applause and whistles they got, pulling Sinara in closer, pressing a kiss to her temple before he whispered,“It’s supposed to predict who’ll get engaged next.”
“That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard,”she said, and burst out laughing.
Kasius raised a hand to cup her cheek.“Well, whatever keeps you smiling.”
“That was more fun than I thought it would be,”Sinara said, kicking off her shoes and sinking down onto the sofa. The way to her own room seemed too far, somehow.
“Good.” Kasius sat down next to her, a little closer than usual.“Can I tell you something?”
She tilted her head to the side, smiling a little.“Experience suggests you’re incapable of shutting up, so I’d wager you can.”
“I didn’t get the RSVP wrong,”he said.“I meant to ask you to come from the start and then lost my nerve.”
She stared at him blankly, trying to puzzle through what he had just said. Then she bit back a laugh.“You could ask me to be your fake date with barely any notice but not to go with you for real?”
“Apparently,”he sai with a chuckle.“Does that make me an idiot?”
“Afraid so.” She scooted closer, wrapping her arms around his neck.“But according to the cake stone, you’re my idiot, so I guess I’m stuck with you.”
“Who am I to argue with the cake stone?”he said, and kissed her.
