You x Evelyn Porter (Amazing Stories ‘The Cellar’ - Victoria Pedretti)

Fix it with a happy and more Gay ending! Victoria Pedretti the cellar amazing stories continue in the future let her be gay!

Summary: We pick up in the future with Evelyn

TW: Smut

Here is the title song: After You’ve Gone By Victoria Pedretti

I Linked some clips including the song from The Cellar

Also, there are a lot of good edits so here is a playlist of edits for Sam & Evelyn

In case you have never heard Victoria Pedretti sing here let me bless you with the other song we have from her College years: Crazy Mashup

AN: I randomly remembered this character and thought let's write her up a cute gay ending!

She is the cutest ray of sunshine! I can't handle her smile!

Word Count: 2,356

Imagine This:

Evelyn Porter of 1919 was a beautiful woman who just wanted to be free. She wanted more than anything to sing and enjoy the parts of life that a woman of her time was not allotted.

Sam Taylor of 2019 was a beautiful man with a kind heart but a struggling mind. He felt he didn’t belong in the digital world. He liked working with his hands and making real connections.

One faithful day led to Sam traveling back in time and that is where he fell madly in love with Evelyn. Their love affair was short-lived although happy in totality it was also so very tragic.

>>>>

You

You knew the man that your son was named after. You knew that because of him you had Evelyn. You knew because of his brother you had the gorgeous old house fully restored and beautiful. The events of the years 1919 & 2019 that led to Sam traveling back in time and sending Evelyn to the future were a part of the bedtime stories you told your little Sam.

You met Evelyn shortly after she came to be in 2019. You knew Sam and his brother Jake through Jakes's husband who was your best friend. So when Evelyn came to the future with nothing and no one you quickly became friends. You wouldn’t believe their story if you didn’t see the letters Sam wrote from the past and hid in the wall for yourself. The letter he wrote to her and the way she described him was heartbreaking. You vowed to try your best to help Evelyn in any way you could. You helped her learn anything and everything. She stayed with you while the house was being remodeled and you became inseparable. And you were roommates.

Roommates turned into something more complicated after only a short time. Feelings developed. You thought she was pretty the moment you met her but her soul and energy just made you fall madly in love with her more each day. Her smile is better than sunshine. Her blue eyes lit up when she smiled and gawd you could get lost in them forever. Unfortunately, you thought there was no chance. She has adapted well to the future but sexuality is a big one. She was going to be married off without a choice in the matter before Sam rescued her. You didn’t want to ever impose on her freedom. So you kept your feelings to yourself. You even helped her make other friends and date. You were shocked but not really surprised when she learned you dated other women exclusively. She was amazed by the concept not put off like you thought she’d be. She really wasn’t made for 1919 she had always belonged here in the future.

She decided on her own to go out with some girls and guys and got to experience going to clubs, doing karaoke, and enjoying all that this world had to offer. Dancing and kissing strangers was something you had enjoyed before her and she seemed to like it, except she was searching for more. Something like what she had with Sam. You both just had fun together for a while.

Everything changed the day the house remodel was completed. She was set to move out of your place and move into the house alone. She didn’t want that and neither did you. You were lying on the floor exhausted from packing, moving, and unpacking.

“This place seems so much bigger.”

“Well, it technically is a little bit.”

“I guess.” She whispered.

You turned onto your side to face her “What’s wrong?”

She turned to face you with a sad smile “I just…”

Her voice trailed off as her gaze lowered to glance at your lips. You couldn’t help the automatic reaction to lick them under her intense stare. Her lips parted and she licked her bottom lip and sucked on it. Before you could ask her again what was wrong. Her lips crashed against yours.

You melted into her kiss, her lips slotted between yours perfectly. Her breath hitched and she hummed against your lips. It was more intense than you had imagined it could be. She pulled you closer by the back of your neck. She pulled until you were lying on top of her. Lips still in a dance tongues quickly joining. Her hands moved down your back. She moved her hands bunching up the t-shirt you were wearing. Her fingernails scratched lightly at your back under the shirt as she pulled your shirt trying to get it off of you. A shiver ran through you and made you pull away from her lips to sit up. Your gaze traveled from her panting expanding ribs to her kiss-swollen lips red from where you had been sucking on them, to her intense blue eyes. “Are you sure?”

“Yes. No one else makes me feel like you do.”

You smiled softly “Evelyn. I. Gawd I’m so in love with you.”

Her smile widened and she sat up “I’m in love with you too, y/n.”

She didn’t let you say anything else she captured your lips yet again and her hands traveled down to the hem of your shirt quickly pulling it off. You took your time unbuttoning her shirt. You trailed your kisses down her neck and followed each button. Kissing down the center of her body. Her nails dug into your shoulders sending an electric thrill up your spine. You moved back up as you pulled the shirt off of her kissing each of her shoulders. You quickly moved to the straps of her bra and pulled them down. You lean in, press your lips to her chest and slide your hands around to unhook it. Her breasts are so perky and her nipples are so hard. You glance up and watch her as you cup her breasts and run your thumb over her nipples. Her neck is exposed to you as she throws her head back with a moan. “Ah!”

The sound sends a shiver up your spine and you can’t help but want more. You kiss her breasts and lightly suck on a nipple as you pinch the other one. Your gaze is glued to the tension in her neck as she moans. You suck harder and lightly bite her hard nipple “AAAAAHHHH!”

She looks down at you pupils wide only leaving thin rings of blue. Her lips are parted as she breathes out hot and heavy. You switch breasts but suck and bite hard instantly this time. She arches into you. Your free hand grabs her hip to keep her steady and close.

“More, please.”

“Tell me what you want.”

“I need you everywhere.”

You pulled away from her quickly removing your own bra. You moved your hands to your pants and got up to quickly remove the rest of your clothes. You don't waste a second kneeling back down, helping her escape the rest of her clothes.

Eventually she is laid bare in front of you on top of the pile of clothes and you soak in every detail that you can. You map scars and freckles and curves. Her hips call to you begging for your kiss and you can't resist. You kneel between her legs and lean down pressing kisses to the dips in her hips. Under the soft subtle curve of her belly. Down soft curls. Off to the right side of her inner thigh and then over to the left.

Her hips rock and seek friction. Her legs tremble around your head as you press your lips where she needs them most. Your lips wrap around her sensitive clit and suck lightly as you hum in appreciation to the feel and taste of her. She moans and tangles her long fingers in your hair. She tugs as your tongue flattens against her. Your gaze travels up her body and you catch her gaze intense and focused on you. You reach a hand up and cup a breast squeezing. One of her hands fly to cover yours, lacing her fingers with yours as you both squeeze her breast. You moved your other hand under you. You feel her suck your finger in as you lightly press it to her center and it makes you moan to know she's so ready for you. Your own walls flutter and you can feel how wet you are on your thighs.

“Fuck Evelyn! You feel so good. You taste so good. You have me dripping down my thighs.”

“Fuck y/n! Ah! More.”

You easily slip another finger into her and the sound of her slick heat has you floating. You curl your fingers in a rhythm that you match with the squeeze of her breast and suction of her clit.

Her muscles tighten. Her body squirms and hips rock. The fingers that are tangled in your hair tug and the hand on top of your own squeezes harder. “There! Oh there! Please don't sto-AH! Fuck! Yes yes yes!”

You feel her walls tighten and contract and taste her sweet release moaning into her as your body trembles against hers. “Good so good.”

“Fuh oh ah sensitive!”

You pull out slowly and flatten your tongue as you try to gently get as much of your prize as possible. She tastes so good you have to resist diving your tongue deep into her.

She pulls you down and kisses you devouring your lips in a sloppy kiss. Her fingers trail between you and she slips two fingers into you with ease. You are already on the edge just from making her cum. You moan against her shoulder and she lightly bites yours. She curls her fingers and presses her palm against your clit; you drip into her hand and buck your hips. You feel the coil in your core as she bites and sucks on your shoulder and moves her fingers faster.

“You like that?”

“Yes oh gawd yes!”

“Are you going to cum for me? Say my name when you cum.”

“Ah fuck Evelyn oh my YES! Evelyn!”

“Yes yes oh fuck cum for me.”

Your body trembles and compulses and your walls tighten so hard around her fingers that she can't move. She presses her fingers to the sensitive spot inside you in a come hither motions and it has you soaking her hand. You ride out your orgasm until you collapse against her. She slowly removes her fingers and holds you tightly to her.

“That was-”

“Everything.”

“Yeah,x you take a steadying breath “Everything. I love you.”

“I love you too.”

>>>>

Time passed as it inevitably does. Your love for each other bloomed and blossomed into more than either of you could have ever imagined. You moved into the house with her the day after you made love for the first time.

You helped her get a YouTube channel started for her singing and she was discovered instantly. She is a world famous singer. Known for her sultry vocals and expressive lyrics. She proposed to you and you had a small but absolutely stunning wedding. Soon after you decided to adopt a child and gawd you never imagined your life would lead you here. Watching from the rocking chair as Evelyn, your wife sang sweetly to your 5 year old son.

She smiles scrunching her nose as she leans down to kiss his cheek. She whispers so softly and sweetly. “Goodnight Sam, happy birthday.”

He yawns adorably and you both softly laugh as he snuggles into his pillow and rubs his little face. She continues singing softly.

You put the book you were reading away and that's when you all hear it. The clatter of a wooden toy car falling down the stairs. You and Evelyn glance at each other and little Sam wiggles. “Mommy someone there?”

She glanced at the doorway and then back down at him “No baby. It's okay.”

You got up and walked to the stairs running down the steps. “Sam? Thank you for saving her.”

You don't know if he heard you but you hope he did. You glance back up the stairs and see Evelyn looking down tears stream down her delicate face.

“Oh baby.”

You rush up the steps and wrap her in your arms holding her as she cries. “Sorry.”

“No. It's okay. Come on, let's go to bed.”

“We have to clean up the party stuff.”

“It can wait, come on.”

You pull her into your bedroom and help her out of her dress and bra. You grab her favorite big t-shirt, one of your old college ones and gently pull it over her head. You change yourself and help her wash her face. You quickly do your own routine and get you both settled into bed.

You hold her tightly and ghost your lips over her cheeks. “It's okay to feel sad, to miss him.”

“I just, I knew this was coming, he said he told me, about it when he was convincing me to leave him behind. I just didn't expect it to make me feel like this. I love my life with you with our son but I just wish he knew. He saved me in multiple ways, he made me feel things I never had and he believed in me.”

“I know. If it's any comfort I miss him too, he was such a good friend to me. He was always so caring. I wish I could tell him how he also saved me. I was feeling a lot like he was. Lost, overwhelmed by the modern world and feeling lonely. I was starting to think that real connection just didn't happen anymore. Then you strolled in and saw the world full of wonder and excitement for all the possibilities your new found freedom offered. It, you, changed everything.”

“He really was something else. Something special.”

“He really was.”

She snuggles deeper into your neck and you run your fingers through her short brown hair. She sighs and her body relaxes against you. “I love you, y/n.”

“And I love you, Evelyn.”

A/N: I might write more little snapshots of their life. Let me know if you would like to see more.

BIOGRAPHY

tw: murder/possible political assassination

Life among the nobility was never a reality that Talia Fiorelli considered. Born to a mated pair of a human and a werewolf, her mother, Chiara, willingly left her home, pack, and ancestral realm of Eastland. And instead lived as a lone wolf where Talia was raised in Kings Hill. The species of her mother and her maternal ancestry weren't a secret to Talia and the young woman wasn't surprised when she first shifted herself. A choice was placed before Talia - move to Eastland where the other side of her family were and join the pack or to be a lone wolf like her mother. Talia learned from Chiara the hard truth of her mother's decision, long before she was born. That whenever a wolf left the pack back home, the chances were great that the wolf's departure was not on pleasant terms. A harsh separation was had by all - the wolf that left, the pack and all family that remained behind in Eastland. While it was a difficult choice for Chiara, she didn't want Talia to repeat her decisions. Not if she had to.

But Talia loved her life in Kings Hill. The teenager enjoyed school, especially the social part, she didn't want to leave her friends. Or the family that she had in Kings Hill. While the realm was "for the humans", to Talia, it was home. The realm, for all intents and purposes held an important place in her heart. Thus, to Chiara's surprise, Talia joined her mother as a lone wolf. A decision that still rankles the fur of some of her maternal family members back in Eastland. Yet, it was her decision to make. Chiara did her best and while life as a lone wolf was, at its core, lonely - it was what Talia knew. But her friends made up for it - in their own way. Sure, they weren't werewolves and they didn't share a hive-mind like a pack, but they were the closest thing Talia had to one.

After graduating secondary school, Talia attended Kings College. Aptly named after the realm in which it resided. In her junior year, Talia participated in the inter-realm, collegial transfer program and she attended Universite Des Chute Nord in Northland Heights. Talia loved the experience. And while she missed her family and best friends back in Kings Hill, Talia fell in love with the realm. Literally. She crossed paths with a fellow student and hybrid, Cedric Ogden, and while Talia experienced love before, those previous relationship paled in comparison. Greatly. The lone wolf went to Northland for a possible adventure during her junior year as a transfer student and walked right into her mate. Upon belated reflection, Talia understood her mother's, Chiara's dilemma that resulted in her own existence. As Talia's academic year in Northland neared its end, she made another major decision. Talia transferred completely to Universite Des Chute Nord and earned her degree instead of returning home to Kings Hill. While the realm of her childhood still held an important piece of her heart, it seemed that Northland Heights claimed another.

The pair's courtship, while intense as their mate bond grew, wasn't long. Cedric Ogden in his own right was born to nobility, unlike Talia, and desired to lead those within his inherited county in Northland. The hybrid, while raised to replace his parents, delayed the advancement until after he, himself, graduated. It was an effort to cultivate and maintain the support of those within the county as having worked to earn the residents' trust as their future Count, rather than rush to lead without building a rapport. Cedric's cautiousness paid off and even though the hybrid married Talia, a werewolf with no direct ties to Northland Heights, he had the fondness of those within the county. The couple were married for no more than four years when the unthinkable happened. Among the slain after the attack of the immortalem in Westland, months ago, lay Count Cedric Ogden. Before then, Talia was unaware of the intimacy with such loss. It was something she had not even considered, so soon into their marriage. The death of her husband, her mate.

To some within Northland, it may have came as a surprise that not only was Talia bestowed her husband's county but she failed to relinquish leadership of it. She was, after all, a lone werewolf and sole Countess of a hybrid county in Northland. It was yet another life decision of Talia's that may have displeased others. Yet, Talia contested that Cedric was her mate and his home and beloved county grew to become her own. His people, hers, etc. And that while they had no children together, and the estate had no other heirs, the county was the very last piece she had of Cedric. Of his legacy. Which Talia wished to uphold. Such plea fell upon reasonable ears, at least for now... As the widow's attention shifted, she heard whispers of rumors that Cedric's death wasn't accidental but instead may have been murder. When Talia wasn't tending to her county, she quietly sought the truth over Cedric's demise. She needed to know. She had to. There was no other alternative.
