finally friday is here, it feels like you’ve been counting the minutes until you see her again. you woke up around eleven am and put water in the kettle to make yourself some tea as you went to the bathroom to get your morning routine done, paramore playing over your speaker in the bathroom. your routine is something you’ve started to build since you moved to try and keep your anxiety at bay, not all the time it works but its a good way to get your day started. you started with washing your face, brushing your teeth, then brushing the bedhead out of the mess you call hair.

a couple minutes later, you hear the kettle hiss and you make your way back to the kitchen and turn off the stove. you picked your favorite mug out of your cabinet and make your tea. leaving the kitchen, you went back to sit on the couch and think about a million different outcomes that would possibly happen tonight when you see her. you wonder if you’re reading too much into the way she talked to you, was she even flirting with you at all? or just being nice? did she just feel bad about seeing what happened outside her gym?

your phone buzzed in the mist of your thoughts on your and you read a text from dina telling you they’re leaving for the gym around 7 and if you wanted a ride. before responding you pulled up the weather app on your phone and decided you could walk there, its a warm summer day out again and by the time the sun fell, it would be cool enough to walk and it was only about 15 minutes from your house, that and leaving open the possibility that she would want to drive you home again.

you texted her back saying that you would just meet them there. you looked at the time seeing its about eleven thirty so you still have a while until you have to leave. you decided you were gonna be productive today. you did laundry and washed your sheets, did the dishes, vacuumed, cleaned the bathroom and made a sandwich for lunch even thought by now it was 4 o clock. as you were walking around your apartment, you made a mental note to try and find some nice thrift stores around to help you decorate your place. you made your way to your bathroom to shower for tonight.

you love taking long showers, its your guilty pleasure. thanking god that your landlord pays your water bill as you dried off from the shower, put on your strawberry lotion, a big black t-shirt and fuzzy socks to hang around in while you did your hair and minimal makeup. you couldn’t stop thinking about seeing her tonight. new girl was playing on the tv in your room as you finished the final touches on your face. doing light everything since its hot but still wanting to look nice for the occasion: finally seeing her again.

four episodes later and its 6 o clock so you change into a pair of black levi shorts and a green top. your hair and makeup still looked good from earlier so nothing to touch up but you still triple checked yourself. you wish you could have smoked today to help beat the nerves but you wouldn’t have anything until tonight, smiling to yourself thinking of you and her on the phone both laughing when you asked if she was bribing you. you slipped on your converse, grabbed your bag, and locked the front door behind you and started making your way to ellie’s gym.

you got there around seven and you didn’t see jesses car yet but you did see hers. ellie’s beat up 2000 green honda cry sat in a spot towards the back of the parking lot. memories of you leaning on her window practically admitting you liked when she called you sweetheart and the peaceful feeling of comfortable silence you both held.

you heard someone call your name in the distance to turn and see dina getting out of the car, you were so concentrated on ellies car you didn’t even see them pull in. you made your way over and greeted them with a hug as dina wrapped your arm in hers and dragged you in with her, jesse following behind. you tried to calm your nerves but it just wasn’t working. not nervous about being here, even after what happened outside with the man last time, but of seeing her again. you’ve only spoken to her a handful of times but you thought of her more times than you can count.

as soon as you made it closer towards the front door, it was loud, like the first time you were here. loud people, loud lights, loud everything but now knowing it was ellie’s changed it. jesse held the door as dina went in first and you both followed. florescent lights beamed from above you, shining on the sweaty bodies in the gym. it was just like it was the first time you came. your nerves followed you everywhere, but it was worth seeing her again.

you went in and dina guided you guys to the same table you had last time. you wonder if they sit here every time. you looked around for ellie but you didn’t see her anywhere. you saw her car so she has to be here.

dina and jesse got up to go get drinks from the makeshift bar while you sat and waited for them to bring back your drink. you looked over to them waiting their turn when you heard something behind you.

“hey sweetheart,” she whispered close to your ear, and before you could respond she pulled out the the seat next to you and sat down.

“hey ellie,” you said almost startled. she was wearing a pair of skinny jeans, a black t shirt and all her tattoos were showing this time. it was almost mind blowing seeing her and you couldn’t even explain what it did to you. you don’t understand why a girl you barely know has this effect on you.

“i told you to call me el,” she said and laughed kindly towards you, “i have the stuff for you” she finished.

“oh thank you, i’d hope so considering that’s the reason i came,” you joked.

“wait you mean you didn’t come to see me?” she said sounding fake hurt.

“that was just a plus,” you flirted. dina and jesse came back to the table with the drinks before she responded to you and they both greeted ellie as they sat.

“hey els we didn’t see you before we ordered the drinks, i can go get one for ya?” jesse asked her.

“nah i’ll wait til the next round, thanks though” she told him. she smiled at you and the conversation started between all four of you, before you knew it an hour and a half passed, you had more three more rounds and just enjoyed your friday night. the match started and you find it so convenient that you can still see the ring from where the table is so theres no need to get up and watch considering its not ellie up there.

you watched for a bit until it was coming to the end, cheering erupted and ellie told dina and jesse that she was going out for a smoke, before she got up, she leaned over to you and whispered “you coming sweetheart?” softly in your ear, her face inches away from yours, then she moved back and smiled. she held out her hand and you held it as she pulled you up with her as you blushed so hard, you swear you turned into a tomato.

your eyes stayed on her hand holding yours and the beautiful moth tattoo covering her arm, not believing that she’s actually touching you again. you followed behind her as she moved with you through the gym towards the door, as you walked out still hand in hand you saw the side of the building, it was the same place she defended you the first time you met her.

she lead you over to a bench that you never even realized was there. your hands broke as you both sat, she went pull out her cigarette pack and the lighter from her back pocket when she noticed you were staring at her still. she smirked as she opened the pack, and surprisingly pulled out a joint. she put it in her mouth and brought the lighter up to it before telling you “its not polite to stare sweetheart.”

you blushed and looked away as soon as she said it. she laughed and she passed the joint to you, you told her you just couldn’t help it. and you really couldn’t, she’s breathtaking. the way her freckles danced across her whole face, her eyes had a small tint of brown circling her iris, the scar on her right eyebrow, the way her lips just sat perfectly on her face. you so badly want to reach out and touch them again.

you hit it a couple times, you are sure your cheeks haven’t been back to normal since you saw her and you wonder if she’s noticed. you passed her back the joint and she staring at you taking in every detail of you too as she brought it to her mouth and took a hit. blowing out the smoke she smirked, and said “i can’t either sweetheart.”

she leaned back against the bench, legs spread a little as she handed you the joint and asked, “so what brought you here besides jesse?” she acquired. you told her about living in brooklyn, above the cafe you worked and how your time spent there wasn’t totally great but the real reason was running from a shitty past, you weren’t ready to tell her specifics but you told her that’s why you left, you had to get away from what happened there but it was more like who. she told you she understood and then she told you “well i’m glad you’ve made your way here sweetheart.”

you don’t know if it was the alcohol or weed but you sat outside on the bench for another 20 minutes, smoking and laughing as you talked about so much: you talked about the tv shows you’re both watching, the albums you had on repeat, the guilty pleasures you both had and what you both did in your free time. you spoke to one another like you’ve known each other for years. it just feels so good to talk to someone like this again.

she learned that your parents live in portland, so moving coasts was a big deal but you felt like you were on auto-pilot growing up and you knew you had to get out when you could, she learned that you dropped out of college two years and haven’t made any plans to go back but you would like to. you told her a couple funny stories about you and jesse growing up and she laughed at them all.

you found out that she plays guitar and that she spends time drawing and journaling. you learn that ellie was adopted when she was 14, she grew up in boston, and she has an older sister named sarah but that she doesn’t come around much anymore since she gotten married. she told you that her dad passed away from a heart attack about a year ago and since then, her and her uncle tommy.

“im sorry to hear about your dad els” you sympathized.

“its okay sweetheart, just fucking sucks sometimes.” she responded softly as she put the joint out next to her and slipped it back in her cigarette pack. instead this time she pulled out a cigarette and lit that this time. she slid it in her pocket before she stood up off the bench, offering you her hand again and said you should probably head back inside.

you grabbed her warm hand and stood up to follow her, you started the walk towards the side door but before she opened it, she turned around to you and faced you.

“hey sweetheart?” she asked.

“yes els?” you waited for her to continue, her hand still covering yours.

“im glad you came sweetheart, this was nice, i mean as nice as it gets sitting on the side of this place,” she laughed softly, you felt like she was closer than ever but maybe because you just wanted her to be, “you know, id love to do this again.. and maybe play you something on my guitar.. if you want.” she said almost nervously, feeling the urge to look away from you.

“i would love that els.” you said, looking up from staring at your hands together to smiling in her face. you cant believe she asked you, part of you prayed she would, you knew there was a connection here. she realized it too. your eye contact never faded as you stood here.

“great, im looking forward to it more than you know,” she told you sweetly. she let go out hand and you felt slight disappoint in your heart as you assumed she was going to turn around and open the door and this moment would be over. instead, she brought her hand up to your face and let it rest on your cheek as she brushed her thumb over it. the touch of her warm hand sent sparks through your body this time and you couldn’t be bothered moving as she grew closer to you.

“you have no idea how much i wanna kiss you right now.” she whispered, from only what felt like two inches away from your lips. fuck, you thought silently. she was so close to you, you could feel her breathe as she spoke.

“please do it.” you practically whined, you couldn’t take this anymore. all you wanted to do was feel her lips on yours. after you spoke, you felt her thumb move from your cheek to brushing your lips softly. the drinks you had definitely brought out your confident and the want you had for her.

“oh sweetheart,” she purred towards you, “how badly i want to but it has to be more special than this.” she said moving her thumb back to your red cheek.

“just as long as it happens el,” you responded, breathing heavier as your nerves grew in anticipation.

she nodded as she slowly moved her hand off your face and brought it down to your hip and gave it a squeeze, still smiling at you as she reached to open the door and let you through in front of her.

you walk back into the gym and went to find jesse and dina. you saw jesse at the bar and ellie went over to him, telling you she was getting more drinks. you went over to dina at the table and took a seat next to her. you asked her how the match went and she told you same as always and nothing crazy this time.

“you guys were out there for a while, whats up with that?” dina asked while smirking and wiggling her eyebrows at you.

“dina…” you laughed, “we just smoked and talked for a bit.” you replied to her.

“sureeee that’s all, we see the way you look at her!”, she squealed, “and the way she looks at you, it just seems pretty obvious.”

you laughed and told her that nothing happened yet but you did admit to her that you wanted it to.

“stop we knew it!” she laughed loudly and hit the table in excitement. you pulled your hands to your face that was full of embarrassment.

“what do you mean you knew it, was it obvious?” you gasped. your eyes darting towards ellie at the makeshift bar.

“to me and jesse yes.” she told you still smiling over the fact that her two friends maybe starting something new soon.

as you went to reply, the drinks were on the table, jesse and ellie were back already at the table pulling their chairs. the conversation between you and dina came to a halt as you all started talking. you all sat, conversing and finished your last round by the time it hit around 11 pm. you were getting tired and you were definitely drunk after all the rounds of drinks everyone bought. the matches ended an hour ago and you guys were the last few people left besides the lady behind the bar and a couple stragglers paying their tab and chatting.

“hey i think me and d are gonna head out,” he said looking over to dina, who was definitely feeling all the drinks she had, he laughed and said, “this one needs to make it home into bed. can you make it home okay? i can take you now if you need” he asked talking to you.

“no i’m gonna take her home.” ellie cut in before you could respond. you looked at her and smiled as jesse told you to text when you both got home safe. he helped dina up and they made their way to the door. your eyes followed til they left and then you turned to ellie, who was already staring at you.

“that okay sweetheart? that i take you home again?” she asked smirking towards you.

“yeah els, that’s okay.” you blushed as she stood up and put her hand out for the third time tonight. you connected your hands again. touching her had your skin was burning up. you followed her into a back office. paperwork, receipts, and random things littered the room. as you looked around and saw a decent couch, a safe in the corner and a coffee area on a little table and a large desk with folders and boxes of things you didn’t know.

you watched as ellie disconnected your hands to go over to pick up her backpack from the side of the couch and then she grabbed a jacket she had hanging over the deck of the chair to the desk, she slid it over her shoulders then grabbed a piece of paper, writing something non legible from where you were standing. she smiled when she turned towards you and held her arm out motioning to the door for you guys to exit.

the stragglers were gone and the bartender bid ellie goodnight as she walked out the front door. you walked the distance of the gym and made it to the door with ellie, she leaned over and turned the lights off and then held the door opened for you.

you told her thank you and she nodded towards you, “i think we should walk, it’s not far from your apartment.” she spoke looking towards you for confirmation as she turned and locked up the gym for the night.

“that’s okay but how are you going to get home without your car?” you asked. you didn’t want her walking home alone either, you knew she could handle herself but still, the thought made you worry.

“i’m only 5 minutes away from you actually so its not far, ill be back for my car tomorrow.” she told you. you nodded and both of you continued to walk the sidewalk in a comfortable silence next to each other. you glanced up at the sky, noticing the stars and the way the moon beamed over the city. it was so much cooler now than it was earlier and you moved to brush over the goosebumps that covered your arms. ellie noticed your movement and took off her jacket. you turned when you noticed what she was going and told her, “no its okay we’ll be there soon i don’t need it.”

“sorry sweetheart, got to make sure you stay warm.” she smirked as she put it over your shoulders and watched as you put your arms in. you smiled to her as you readjusted it and continued the walk to your place. the smell of her engulfed you and you’ve never felt so comfortable.

“its so beautiful.” you whispered, “and quiet, new york was never like this. they don’t lie when they say the city never sleeps ya know?” you finished.

the city you moved to that you wish you could escape from. the shitty and abusive relationship you wish you could leave behind. the things you tried the most to forget. you never spoke about it, you just ran. the city you wished had better memories connected with it. but now all you want is to create new memories.

when you moved across the country, you told yourself that you’re not getting into anything here because you know you need to heal from the those years of abuse and insecurity so the last thing you expected was to meet ellie and end up feeling this way about her. you don’t want this to happen and you ruin it because you aren’t okay but with her, you feel like you could be okay one day.

“i could only imagine, boston was a busy place too but not the same, it always is quiet here.” she chuckled softly.

“i love it, things finally seem calm now.” you smiled as you looked her. she took in the sight of you in her jacket and she loved it. she can only imagine seeing you wear her t shirts… or nothing at all. she shook the thoughts from her head but she just couldn’t help it. you were the most beautiful girl she’d ever seen. you were breathtaking. she couldn’t believe she’d met someone like you in this shitty small town.

the town where her dad and her moved, and the memories of them together haunted her. now that he was gone, she knew a piece of her was missing. things were incomplete without him. he was all she thought about, the guilt of what happened and how she couldn’t do anything to stop it.

the only time ellie wasn’t thinking about joel was when she was thinking about you, she was grateful that she met you. she didn’t know what this was going to turn into but she hoped it would be something. she sees the effects she has on you and she wishes she really knew how to communicate with you that she feels the same way about you.

you continued the walk in a comfortable silence, both of you wrapped in your thoughts of each another and eventually made it to the front of your building. you turned to face her with a smile,“here i am,” you spoke softly to her, not wanting the night to come to an end.

“here you are, thank you for letting me take you home sweetheart, call it peace of mind,” she admitted.

“thank you for walking me els… do you want to come up?” you said without a thought. you didn’t know if this is was the alcohol talking but you know you didn’t regret it when you said it and you wish that’s what you could blame it on but you knew you wanted this even sober.

“if you want me to sweetheart” she smirked as she responded.

you stepped closer to her as you looked at her, only a couple inches away from her face, watching her eyes move from your eyes to your lips. you knew you both could feel the tension.

“please just say yes.” you sighed wishing you could feel her lips on yours already.

“okay sweetheart, lets go.” she pulled away but connected your hands and it took you a second to recognize that she agreed. you turned around, suddenly nervous about the fact that she’s going to see where you spend your days. you opened the door to the lobby, and ellie held the door as you both walked in. she followed you up the stairs by the front, and you made your way to the front door as you held ellie’s hand in one and used the other to pull your keys from your bag.

you unlocked the door and you brought ellie in with you before the door was shut and you were locking it. you took off her jacket and put it on your coat rack and turned to look at her.

“okay it’s kind of a mess so i’m sorry but-“ you started before she cut you off.

“sweetheart, your place is practically spotless, you should see mine.” ellie laughed.

you laughed as you pulled ellie over to the green couch that took up a lot of your living room but it was a dream purchase and you loved it. you told ellie to take a seat as you walked over to the kitchen and grabbed some water for you both. as you were walking back towards her, she was digging around in her backpack. as you placed the waters down and took a seat, she pulled out weed in a jar and handed it to you.

“here this is yours.” she said.

“oh thank you! i totally forgot, do you want to smoke now- fuck i don’t think i have anything to roll with.” you told her as you went to open the windows in your living room.

instead of saying anything, she reached back into her backpack and pulled out a jar of already rolled joints.

“i came prepared.” she laughed, “and you won’t owe me anything for that.” she said, motioning to the stuff she gave you as her hands were cracking open the jar of pre-rolls.

“ellie- no i’ll give you the cash,” but she shook her head no and brought the lighter to the joint between her lips.

“no, it’s on me, don’t worry about it.” she responded as she took a hit.

“do you give other people weed for free?” you asked, looking at her as she was smoking while sitting next to you on the couch. you wish you could stay like this forever.

“only pretty girls that i like…” she said sweetly as you held eye contact as she handed you the joint.

“oh so you think i’m pretty?” you teased her as you took a hit.

“sweetheart, i think you’re the prettiest girl i’ve ever seen.” she told you. you instantly blush and look away from her, trying not to choke on the smoke you held in your lungs.

“thank you els, i think you’re beautiful.” you said to her. when you looked up, you saw her cheeks tint lightly as she grabbed the joint you held out to her.

“thanks sweetheart.” she said as she put the joint down on a cup at the table you’d been using as an ashtray and she brought her hand up and held your cheek like she did earlier. you couldn’t help yourself as you nuzzled your face into her warm hand. your eye contact only made the tension in the room worse.

“you really are beautiful… sweetheart, can i?” she asked as she looked down at your lips. you nodded and as she came closer, your lips just barely brushing, as she asked, “i need to hear you pretty girl.”

“yes please els- please just kiss me already.” you begged.

her lips were on yours before you could even realized this was actually happening. your lips moved slow together at first but you couldn’t help yourself from deepening the kiss as ellie brought her other hand up and tangled it in your hair as you moaned, her tongue slipped into your mouth, both of you tasting the weed and alcohol you consumed.

one of your hand rested against her chest and the other gripping her arm as you melted into the kiss. both ellie’s hands were in your hair now as your tongues continued to fight for dominance but you let her win and moaned again and she swallowed it as she kissed you.

ellie pulled your leg over her lap so you straddled her, never breaking your lips apart. your lips continued to move in sync as you grinded against her. her hands on your hips moving with you. your lips stay connected until you broke the kiss to come up for air and rested your forehead on hers.

“you okay sweetheart?” ellie panted as she caught her breath too.

“yes els just need a second.” you said as your eyes stayed shut while you tried to control your breathing. you couldn’t believe that you guys finally kissed. the tension was killing you both and now it’s finally happened.

“hey it’s okay, take your time sweetheart.” ellie said as she rubbed a hand along your thigh at a comfortable pace, brushing the cloth from your shorts as she moved it. she brought the other one up to your cheek and lifted your head to look at you. you looked tired and ellie didn’t want to take full advantage of you after you guys had been drinking and smoking all night.

“hey sweetheart, lets get you to bed, we’ll finish this another time i promise.” she said sweetly as you mumbled an “okay els thank you,” and moved off her lap to sit back on the couch. ellie stood up and offered her hand. you stood up and walked both of you to your bedroom.

you moved to sit on the edge of your king sized bed and ellie stood in front of you still holding your hand as you asked her if she wanted to stay the night because it was late and you didn’t want her walking home.

“sure sweetheart i’ll sleep on the couch, and only for your peace of mind.” she chuckled, thinking back to the conversation earlier.

“els we can share the bed, it’s okay, i’ll keep my hands to myself.” you joked and she laughed.

“i don’t think i’d be complaining if you couldn’t but i’m okay on the couch.” ellie insisted.

“els please just lay with me.” you said looking up at her as she moved her hand to rest on your cheek again.

“okay sweetheart.” she finally agreed.

you smiled up at her and you took ellie’s hand from your face and guided her into the bathroom connected to your room. she watched as you bent down and opened the sink cabinet and grabbed a toothbrush. you turned around and handed it to her with a smile. you guys brushed your teeth and then went back into your bedroom.

ellie stood here as you moved across the room to your dresser, and pulled out a t-shirt and a pair of shorts from your drawer and handed them over to ellie. she told you thank you and you smiled at her. ellie walked into the bathroom to change and you walked back to the dresser. you stripped yourself of your shirt and bra before throwing on a different oversized tee and changing your underwear. you didn’t even realize you were soaked after what happened on the couch.

ellie watched you as she leaned against the bathroom door frame as you untangled the sides of your underwear after you pulled them up.

“you’re perfect”, she thought in head before speaking out loud. “thanks sweetheart.” you turned around when ellie spoke, sending her a smile before you moved to your side of the bed, you grabbed the duvet and moved it so you both were able to get in your bed.

you and ellie laid facing each other in a comfortable silence as you were both growing incredibly tired. you felt your eyes starting to get heavy and felt ellie’s hand brush your hair back from your face so you kept your eyes open to look at her.

“el?” you whispered.

“yes sweetheart?” she spoke quietly back to you.

“i really like you… i don’t know if this is too early but it just feels right.”

“i feel it too sweetheart, i like you too so don’t worry,” ellie said softly, hand still holding your face, “now get some sleep, we’ll talk more in the morning pretty girl.”

“goodnight els.” you whispered.

DBF/DILF Miguel O’Hara x female reader

Summary: Miguel’s worst nightmare comes true😰😰😰

I’m actually shocked for how quick I got this chapter out, lol. I had to add this photo above it’s so cute! I imagine these would be photos Y/n took on her phone of Miguel and Gabi. I think the top two would be her screen saver🥰 Also just want to say again thank you for the 800 follows! Your likes, comments and reblogs mean the world to me!💕💕💕

I apologize for any grammatical mistakes I missed.

Enjoy🥰

Wc: 4.2k

————————————————————————

The morning of Gabi's Birthday. Before the accident:

"Goodbye cariño. Have a nice day with classes. I'll see you later."

"Goodbye. Have a good day at work. I'll pick up Gabi from school."

After Miguel left for work and Gabi was finished with her breakfast you cleaned up the counter and washed the dishes.

"Ok baby bug. Let's get you ready for school." You help her down from the chair before going upstairs to get her dressed. Her outfit was already laid out as she specifically wanted to wear this one dress to school for her birthday. Once you helped her get into it she giggled and twirled around as she watched the skirt part spin with her.

After doing her hair, you check the time eyes widen as you realize you don't have enough to look presentable today. So you decided to wear a matching pair of sweats and sweatshirt, Uggs, and put your hair in a cute messy bun.

"Ok let's head out baby bug, we're running a bit late." You grab her lunch and water bottle and put it in her backpack, hanging that on your shoulder as you pick her up, carrying her on your side hip as you head to the garage to your car.

You strap her in to her car seat in the back before getting in to the driver's side. Once you get out of the garage and begin to drive you look in the rear view mirror to see a smiling Gabi starring out the window.

"Hey, baby bug?"

"Yeah mama?"

"Papa and I are going to send out the invites to your birthday party that's next week."

"Yay! Will everyone be dressed as a princess or superhero?"

"Yep! Or both if they want to."

"I didn't know you could be both! Can I be a princess superhero?" Gabi gasped when she heard your words, which made you chuckle slightly. So cute.

"Of course you can, sweetheart. I'll come up with an idea for what we should do for your costume and we can go find something after school today. How does that sound?"

"Yay! Can it be a surprise for Papa?"

"Sure baby bug. I will have to tell him though that we won't meet him right after school. But that's it's for a surprise." You chuckle from her silly request. You made a mental note to text Miguel the update when you got to your class.

After talking more about her upcoming birthday party you made it to her school. You quickly get out in drop off area to unbuckle her from the car. After helping her out of the car you help put her backpack on.

"Ok, have fun today Birthday Girl! I'll see you at pick up! Love you my baby bug." You kneel down to giver her a proper hug which she happily returns before running off to her drop-off line to see her friends.

Once you saw she was with her teacher you drove off towards your university to attend your classes for the day.

———————

You were done with your last class for the day and had an hour before you had to pick up Gabi. You sat back on a lawn chair that were spread through out campus.

"Ugh, I can't with this semester. It's killing me already." Stephanie groaned as she sat in the chair next to you. You both came out of the same exam, not knowing if you did well or not.

"Steph, why did you decide to take 18 credits for your last semester?"

"Girl, I had too or I would have to pay for another semester. Enough about school, how's it going with you and Miguel's relationship being public?"

She turned her head to look at you.

"As expected everyone's so nosy and either being a bitch or an asshole about it. I haven't talked to my parents since the holiday party. But it's not like they are eager to reach out to me."

"Yeah Jack told me that your parents are going nuts still over it. Ugh speaking of your brother, he's being so annoying lately. I love him. But if he leaves a plate in the sink one more time, I'm going to tackle him." Stephanie groaned in frustration.

"Well, Miguel lately has been very insistent on wanting to have kids. Did you now that he expected to get me pregnant this year so we could have a baby next year? And then when I told him when I wanted to have kids he wasn't happy about it. So we had to compromise and agree on three years from now. Steph! I don't know if I'll be ready to have a baby in three years. I don't think I would be able to handle a career fully by then."

"Damn, three years from now. That's crazy. But I guess I get why you agreed. He is older than you. That is probably the one downfall to being with someone older."

"I don't now if it's a downside. We just are at two different points in our lives, but we love each other. I don't know, maybe deep down I knew I would probably be starting a family soon when I began dating him. And it's not like I don't want a baby now. I have the baby fever. I just worry that sometimes i still feel like a kid myself, despite being an adult and I just don't know if I'll be a good mother." Stephanie places her hand over yours and smiles.

"Y/n you will be an amazing mom. You do such a great job with Gabi."

"Thanks Steph. And your going to be a amazing aunt."

"Hell yeah I am!" She said before you both laughed from her comment.

After talking and relaxing a bit longer with Stephanie it was time to part ways as you get back in your car and drive to Gabi's school to pick her up.

Due to traffic you arrive a few minutes from her finishing class. When you go to pick-up your brows furrow as you see the kindergarten class but a new teacher, and no Gabi. Confused you decide to park the car and walk to get her.

"Hi, where is the regular kindergarten teacher?"

The woman smiles at you. "I'm the new teacher assistant. I started today. She had to leave early today so I took over. Who are you picking up?"

"Gabriella O'Hara. Where is she actually? She's usually here when I pick her up."

"I'm sorry but Gabi was already picked up." The woman said as she checks her clipboard. Your brows furrowed from her response.

"Her father came to pick her up? He didn't tell me he was going to."

"It wasn't her father. It was her mother." The TA's words made your vision almost black out. Your heart felt like it stopped and your body felt numb.

"What do you mean her mother picked her up? I'm Gabriella's mother. You let my daughter go with a complete stranger?! Who did you let take my daughter?!" Your voice raised.

"Her name was Sofia." The TA hid behind her clipboard.

"When did she pick her up?"

"Like 5 minutes ago. They drove that way." The woman shaking pointed her finger in the direction that the car went.

"You and the school will be hearing from our lawyer. I'll be back once I get my daughter back. You better hope I fucking get her." You get into the TA's face glaring down at her before you sprint to your car and turn it on and start driving faster than you have ever been.

All you could hear was your heart beating deafeningly loud in your ears. You felt physically sick. You pick up your phone as you call 911.

"911 what's your emergency?"

"Hi m-my daughter. W-well my step daughter. She-she was abducted from her school. The teacher just let a stranger take her!" Tears fall down your cheeks as you feared that you might never see her again.

After giving the police all the information they finally dispatched a car and sent out an amber alert. You asked if you could call your boyfriend, her father, which they said you could.

You hear the earth shattering noise of the amber alert blare on your phone. You tried to wipe away the tears from your eyes as you drove, as they become unbearably blurry disrupting your vision.

You call Miguel. It rang from some time before...

"Hi this is Miguel O'Hara. I'm currently unavailable at the moment. Please leave a voicemail and I will get back to you."

You call again. Same thing . And again.

Same response. You then remember he would be in back to back meetings all day and probably has his phone turned off or on silent.

You call again. "Please answer Miguel. Please!"

Another automated message. You cry out in frustration. "Fuck! Where did that bitch take my daughter?"

You drive for what feels like forever, a piece of your heart tearing away every minute you did have her in your arms.

"Oh my god." Your gasp as your eyes widen. Two cars ahead was the same piece of shit car Sofia drove. Not caring about breaking the rules you drive over the spread limit as you get in the lane beside her car. And if the universe couldn't be anymore helpful the light turn red. You ripped yourself from your seat and out of the car as you ran in front of her car.

Sofia's eyes widen in surprise before returning back to her usual glare. She continuously honks the horn. The light turned green but you didn't move es ring other people to honk the car.

"Hey! What's going on here! You're holding up traffic lady!" Said a random man.

"Sir please. This woman kidnapped my daughter. I won't let this woman out of my sight without my daughter. Please, can you please help!" You begged as tears streamed down your face. You just wanted your baby girl back.

A few other people left there cars curious to see what was causing the traffic jam.

"Oh honey. What are you doing?" Said a random older woman as she walked up to you.

"Please can someone help me get my daughter. I can see she's scared. Please."

The man ripped the car door open, luckily that woman was dumb enough to keep her doors unlocked. Sirens can heard growing in the back. Sofia rolled down her window. "Omg this bitch is crazy. That's my daughter. She's lying!"

"Mama!" Gabi cried at the top of her lungs as she squirmed through the man and woman's arms and towards you. As the sirens grew closer your were too slow to see Sofia reverse before heads towards you at full speed. Gabi was right in front of the car with you. You pushed her out of the way, luckily she didn't fall.

The last thing you saw was the fearful look on Gabi's face before everything went black.

————————————

"W-what did you say?" Miguel voice was barely above a whisper.

"Y/n was hit by a car. We also want to say that your daughter is safe with us."

"Wait, what? What happened to my daughter and girlfriend?!" Miguel voice raised fear and anger taking over his mind.

"A woman by the name Sofia abducted your daughter at her school. Y/n had called the police and chased after them. When she found your daughter, to get away from the police Sofia ran over y/n to escape from them."

"I-I'm on my way." Miguel ended the call as he ran towards his car and drove to the hospital his heart ached. He couldn't lose you. He wouldn't be able to handle it.

He arrived to the hospital and ran into the emergency ward. In the crowd he immediately spotted his daughter. "Gabi!" When hearing her father's voice she ran from the social worker watching her and into his arms as she wailed.

"Mama's hurt!" She cried in his arms as he wrapped his arms around her and kiss the top of her head, relieved that his daughter was safe. However the ache in his heart was still fully there at the thought of you being critically injured. "I-I saw a car h-hit Mama! I want Mama!" She cried. Bearing his daughter's wails brought tears to his eyes as he try to call her down, which was difficult as he was no where near calm.

A while later a doctor in surgical attire walked towards him. "Mr. O'Hara?"

"Y-yes."

"We just finished surgery with Y/n. However she still is in critical care. We-"

"Is it p-possible if we can talk in private?" Miguel gestured towards his daughter's who cries were only getting worse from the doctor's news. The doctor nodded, "follow me this way."

Miguel handed Gabi to the social worker, however she wouldn't let go of him. "N-no!"

"Princesa, Papa needs to know what's happening with Mama. Please go with the social worker. I'll be right back. I promise." Gabi listened as she allowed him to give her to the social worker.

When they were in a private space, the doctor signed. " Would you like to see her? Just as a warning, it won't be a pretty sight."

Miguel could only nod as he was led to the ICU. When he entered the room, his heart shattered. He rushed over to your side as he got on his knees. His hand shook out of control as he intertwined his fingers in your limp hand.

"Dios...mi amor please por favor fight through this. I'm going to be right here. I won't leave your side. Please don't leave me. I won't be able to live without you. Gabi wouldn't be ok. I won't be ok. I love you so so so much."

Miguel didn't realize how long he was by your bedside, when he felt a hand rest on his shoulder.

"Hey." Said Gabriel.

"Thanks for coming to get Gabi. I-I just can't leave y/n side." Miguel looked up to his brother. Gabriel's heart broke as he saw the disheveled appearance of his brother.

"Please try to get some rest. You know she would want that."

"No. I'm not leaving. I'll sleep in the chair."

"Ok." Gabriel said before looking at Miguel one more time before leaving the room.

——————-

Your eyes slowly open, closing once from the bright light before opening them again. You gaze at your surroundings. Your were in a hospital? Right, you were hit by a car.

To your left, a head with disheveled brown curls laying on your bed. You slowly smile as you lift your hand as you gently brush some of the hair out of his face. Almost immediately, his reddish-brown eyes stare up at you wide. You remove you hand as he shoots up.

"Y/n?"

"Hey" you say voice really hoarse from the lack of talking. Miguel intertwined his fingers in yours as he kissed your hands and then pressed butterfly kisses all over your face. Over-the moon to see you awake.

"I'm so glad your awake. I knew your would wake up." Tears spilled down his cheeks, which brought worry to your face as you lifted your hand to caress his cheek as you wiped away his tears. He leaned into your touch.

"Your acting like I was a sleep for a while." You lightly chuckle, coughing slightly from your dry throat. "How long was I out?"

"Two weeks." Your eyebrows raised slightly, surprised by his answer. It seemed like you just were hit after rescuing Gabi.

"Is Gabi ok?" Concern was etched in your tone.

"She is. Perfectly fine because of you. Witness' said that you saved her from a car hitting both of you. I can't believe that damn woman hurt you. But she's getting the justice she deserves. She'll be in prison majority of her life for kidnapping Gabi and harming you." Miguel placed a kissed to your forehead before sitting back down.

Concern grew on your face again as you notice the large dark circles under is eyes. "When was the last time you got some proper rest?"

Before he could answer your question the doctor came in and walked towards your bedside as he checked your vitals.

"Glad you were able to wake up Ms. L/n. We weren't sure when you would. You've been healing very well the past two weeks. One thing though, the way you were hit by the car almost made you lose your uterus. It was touch and go for a bit during surgery, but we were able to save you from having another surgery . You'll be able to go home in a day or two. I'll let you rest." The doctor smiled before leaving the room.

His words made your heart beat slightly faster. You might have lost your uterus? Wow, Universe, really trying to tell me something, huh?

"You should get some re-" Miguel was interrupted by familiar voices entering the room. It was your parents and brothers. After having a near death experience you would think you would be happy to see your parents again. But honestly they feel like just as much of a pain as Sofia was.

"Miguel." Said Sam as he walked in behind his wife and gave a frown towards Miguel.

"Sam." Miguel returned his same expression.

"Sweetheart you're awake! I'm so glad you're ok." Said your mother as she walks to the other side of the bedside. She tried to hold your hand but your remove your from hers, causing her to frown.

"Sweetie?"

You look to Miguel, tired eyes asking for him for help you. Knowing exactly what want, he said, "hey, she's pretty tired. Maybe come back after she's rested."

Your mother shot him a glare, "how about you come back after she's rested."

"Mom, y-you and Dad should leave." You spoke up.

"But I'm your mom, sweetie. Everyone needs their mom when they are hurt."she tried to hold your hand again, but once again you removed your hand from hers.

"Well you haven't been acting like a mom ever since the summer. I only want people who aren't going to hold immature grudges based off who I love. So unless you can accept that and apologize, then leave." It did hurt a little to see your mother's hurt expression. But you had to be brave, how she and your father have been acting is not right, and you're not going to have anything to do with it.

"Fine. Have it your way." Your mother frowned as she turned around and left. Before your father left he gently squeezed your hand, "glad you're alive and well."  Before leaving the room.

Your brothers started a bit longer catching up with you before leaving as well.

Time seem to go by fast as you were already being discharged from the hospital.

As Miguel helped you get into the passenger side of the car, you stopped him. "Wait, they never came by our room to take my insurance and fill out stuff for the bills."

Miguel smiled as he brushed some of the hair from your face, " no need to worry about that, cariño. I already paid for it."

Your eyes widen as you looked at him slightly annoyed but that automatically leave as you give him a smile. "You really didn't have to do that. I would have tortured some out myself. But thank you. That was really sweet of you." You caress his cheek.

"No need to thank me, mi amor. You're the love of my life and my family. I'm going to take care of my family." He kiss you on the lips before closing your car door and hoping you in the drivers side.

When you arrived home, Miguel decided to carry you inside the house and up to your shared bedroom despite your slight protests, as you knew he hadn't had proper rest in two weeks.

"No need to worry about me. I'm alright, hermosa."

"Well, I'm going to worry about you and fuss over you because your the love of my life. And I want to make sure you're ok and well. Now laid down next to me and get some rest. You said Gabriel is going to drop off Gabi tomorrow." Miguel smiled down at you as he listened to your words and laid down next to you. He gently wrapped his arm around you and brought you close to him careful not to bother any of your stitches. Feeling his warmth the fatigue washed over you as you fell asleep.

The next day you woke up to the sounds of people talking down stairs. When you began to wake up a bit more you realized Miguel wasn't in bed. As the other voice grew closer a smile came to your face as you realized who it was.

"Mama!" Gabi ran into the room as she jumped on the bed, followed by Miguel running in and catching her before she barreled into you. "Be careful hija. Remember what I told you, Mama is still healing. So we have to be gentle around her."

He let go of her and put her on the bed when he knew she had understood. Your smile widens as you stretch your arm out wanting a hug from her, which she did extra carefully, as she took her father's words into account.

"I missed you a lot Mama."

"I miss you too my baby bug. I'm so relieved that you're safe and ok."

After some time you and Miguel noticed she fell asleep, as he lifted her up and took her to her bedroom to rest. When he came back he sat on the bed next to you.

"Did you get any rest?"

From not getting an answer you lightly glare at him with a pout. You move closer to him which he gladly appreciates. "Miggy, please get some rest. I won't be able to rest if you don't get proper sleep."

"I just have to finish one thing." He said as he took out his phone and started typing away on it, resting your head in his lap, you could see slightly what it said on his screen. Your eyes widen when you saw that it was your finacial portal to your university.

"Miguel, why are you in my financial portal?"

Miguel looked down at you with a pleading gaze. "Mi, amor don't get upset but while you were in a coma I paid for the rest of your university...and your student loans."

You sit up slowly from laying on his lap as you give him light glare and a frown. "Miguel...I told you I would handle them. First off how did you even gain access to them? You know how I felt about you paying for that."

"I know you're upset. But did you expect to get hurt in a car accident? No. You can't work, so I knew your wouldn't be able to pay your monthly payments. I have more than enough money to cover it. And I know you feel bad about it. But I'm going to take care of you. And plus it's down. Nothing can be reversed."

"Well, thank you. You really are an amazing boyfriend. But if you think you're not going to go unpunished for doing it without my knowledge. Though I can't have sex right now, oh once I'm cleared. We're still not having sex." You pout as you turn the away from him in bed. You heard him chuckle as he moved closer to you his chest pressed against your back as he kiss the side of your head, "alright hermosa. That's fair enough. It's was all worth it."

"You say that now."

——————————-

Two weeks later

“Happy birthday to you…happy birthday to you… happy birthday dear Gabi…happy birthday to you!” Sang the crowd of kids and parents as Miguel carries the princess superhero themed cake with six candles in front of her. You smiled and cheered as she blew out all her candles.

You had found out that Gabi wanted to postpone her birthday party until you had woken up and felt better. Of course you felt extremely guilty that she had to wait so long to celebrate, but she would always reassure you with a big hug and saying, “it wouldn’t be fun, if you wouldn’t be there to celebrate with me Mama.”

Tears brimmed the corner of your eyes as you watched her and her friends jump in excitement in their mixture of princess and superhero costumes as they wait to get a slice of cake. You smiled as you saw Miguel hand her a slice, kissing the top of her head before she walked over to the dinning room table with her friends. You looked at Miguel as he gazed happily at your daughter. Miguel then turned to meet you gaze as you could feel the love in his gaze and smile from across the room as he mouthed the words, I love you. Which you did the same.

You thanked the universe that you weren’t taken away from them and can still live your life to the fullest by their side.

Baby Hughes. Pt 2 (Quinn Hughes)

Part 1. Notes: part 2 is here!!! Warnings: none? tell me if you find some.

You walked to Quinn and kissed the top of his head before sitting next to him. He was feeding Ellie with the biggest smile.

"Don't spit!"

"If you don't stop laughing she will think it's really funny to spit the food"

He turned to look at you. "It's funny" He whispered.

You slapped his chest and he laughed loudly. Ellie quickly mimicked her dad and it was your turn to speak.

"Aren't you the cutest?"

"Open your mouth, Ellie. It's almost done."

She obeyed and took the last spoon. "Well done, sweetie" You cleaned her face. "Now, we have to get ready"

Quinn looked up at you and sighed.

"Quinn"

"I know"

"I can cancel"

"No, you can't. It's a big day"

You had a plane to take and it would be the first time you travelled without Quinn.

"Then?"

"I'm just worried"

You cupped his face and run your fingers over his cheeks. "It's only half way. We are meeting your parents for the next flight."

"I know, I know. She is just... Look at her face. She has no good ideas."

You both looked at Ellie, who had a devilish look on her eyes while she played with the spoon.

"We will be fine. I promise. I'm sure she will fall asleep in the plane"

"Come here"

Quinn made you sit on his lap and hugged you tight. "Tell everyone I love them and that I wish I could be there. And... That I miss them a lot. And tell Luckey to just be himself on the ice. He is an amazing player and has time to figure the game out. He just has to enjoy this first one and then he will learn about the team and the group and everything"

You smiled and cupped his cheeks. "You are great"

It made him blush so deeply.

"I love you. And I will tell him all of that. But you better call him before the game. The kid needs you. I'm sure Jack is buzzing and jumping around."

Quinn chuckled.

"I love you t-"

A loud noise followed by a laugh made you turn.

"You have obviously done that" Quinn said shaking his head.

Ellie had thrown the plate against the fridge and looked so proud.

"Are you going to clean it, Miss?" Quinn pointed at her and she only laughed louder.

"We have so much work with her" you giggled.

"Yeah..." He sighed.

You kissed his cheek and got up. "You better not do that again, Ellen Charlotte Hughes."

She went serious for a second but then laughed again. "Who did she got that personality from?"

You laughed and picked her. "Not you"

That earned you a slap on your ass and a kiss on the cheek. There was no way of getting used to this Quinn. You loved this life too much.

.

.

"Call when you land, yeah?"

"Of course"

You hugged him hard and kissed his cheek. "I love you"

"I love you" then he turned to Ellie. "Be good, yeah? And give grandma and grandpa a lot of hugs. And pull Jacky's hair a lot." Since Jack's hair had gotten longer, Ellie had gotten also obsessed with it. She was fixated with her uncle's hair and loved pulling it. "And tickle Lucky too, huh?"

She nodded eagerly and let Quinn pull her for a quick hug and a kiss on her head.

"I'll miss you."

"Wish Dad good luck on his game, baby."

"Luck luck.

Quinn chucked. "Good luck, yay!"

You cupped his chin and brought him closer for a proper kiss. "Good luck, babe"

"Thank you"

The flight was better than expected. After throwing a tantrum because Dad was staying, Ellie fell asleep and stayed like that for almost all the flight. Then, Ellen and Jim picked you and she was over the clouds with her grandparents and all the attention.

The second flight was easier with them next to you. And finally you arrived.

"Who are we going to see?"

"Jacky!"

"And..."

She had associated the Devils with Jack and Michigan with Luke, so it was still a bit confusing for a girl as young as her.

"Dad?"

"No. Not Dad" You said and tickled her to distract her.

"Lucky!"

"Yay!" Ellen clasped and Ellie squeaked. "Are you excited?!" The girl giggled and you laughed.

Later that afternoon, you were waiting for the boys to come out and say hi. Jack had very seriously asked for good luck cuddles before the game and you would obviously take Ellie to see them.

"Do you wanna see Jacky and Lucky?" You said tickling her. She laughed loudly and hid on your neck.

"Look who is coming over there!" Ellen said pointing at the end of the corridor.

"Who is that!?" You said shaking her a bit.

She shouted loudly.

"Hey! Is that the prettiest girl in the world?" Jack shouted from the end of the corridor.

"C'mon Ellie, show them what you learnt" You said putting her on the floor.

Ellie clumsily started walking and Jack and Luke's faces lit up.

"Oh Ellie! Look at you"

"You can walk!"

But she fell on her knees.

"Oh hey!"

Luke knelt on the floor and Jack crouched next to him. Ellie quickly got up again and jumped to Luke's neck and he hugged her tight. They had such a great relationship from the beginning.

"Lucky! Lucky! LOOK"

She fought her jacket. Obviously she was wearing a Hughes jersey. A Hughes 43 jersey. Jack smiled and helped her taking it off.

"Is that..."

"Lucky!" She said pinching his nose.

"Is that my jersey?"

"Yes! Lucky"

Ellen was recording everything with a big smile.

"Am I the best hockey player?" Luke asked. She shook her head. "You favourite player?"

"No, Dad" She said with mischief on her eyes.

The five of you laughed. "Quinny is raising her good" Jack joked.

"But the jersey..."

All our eyes moved to Jack. It had been his idea. He had called Quin one night and told him how he already had a jersey for Ellie to wear on Luke's first game.

"You?"

Luke pointed at Jack. "Yeah, I can't believe you are already here. I'm so happy, Luke"

"Guys. I'm going to cry" You muttered.

Ellen and you were side hugging now.

"Thank you" Luke said blushing and looking down at his niece on his lap. "I'm happy you are all here. I wish Quinn was here too, but well... He sent representation" He added tickling Ellie.

She laughed and tickled him back.

"Ellie. Give the guys a big good luck hug" You said kneeling with them. "It's almost time"

"Luck Luck, Lucky" She said hugging Luke.

Then, she wiggled out of his arms and made grabby hands at Jack. "Come here, cutie"

"Luck Luck, Jacky"

The boys thanked her. Jack was squeezing her on his arms and Luke ruffling her hair. Which remind her of Quinn's orders. She reached and pulled a strand of Jack's hair.

"Ouch"

"It was Quinn" You said giggling.

Jack pulled Ellis's hair a bit and you rolled your eyes. "Kids"

"Guys. You have to leave."

"We'll be cheering a lot, right Ellie?" Ellen asked grabbing her on her arms.

"Yes. Devs! Devs!"

Jack and Luke laughed loudly. They had spent a whole day trying to get her and teach her how to say it.

"That's my girl!" Luke said.

"One more time, Ellie. Good luck boys!" Ellen said.

"Luck Luck, boys!"

"Get going. I have to tell Luke something" You told Jim and Ellen, who nodded knowing how his older son was.

"Luke, Jack!" They turned. "Wait a sec. Quinn sent a message, Luke." You told them.

He smiled a bit and walked closer to you.

"Okay... I hope I don't forget anything" You grabbed Luke's hands. "Enjoy today. And don't worry about your game. You're an amazing player and will have enough time to learn with the team. Enjoy your first game and have fun. Yeah?"

Luke nodded and pulled you for a hug.

"Thank you very much for coming and bringing Ellie. It means a lot." He whispered in your ear.

You smiled softly and cupped his cheeks. "Of course, Luke. I will always be there. Now, go there and show them what you are made of. This is the beginning of something great." You kissed his cheek and he blushed.

"Thank you, YN. I... Uh... You are like a sister to me. I'm happy Quinn found you"

"Yeah, we are happy he got you preg-"

Luke directly elbowed Jack. You only rolled your eyes and opened your arms for the middle child. "Come here, idiot"

He hugged you tight.

"And you take care of him. My words, not Quinn's. He needs you a lot now" You whispered.

Jack squeezed your harder and when he pulled back he was more serious.

"Now go. Good luck and have fun."

The boys left together and you ran to catch your in laws.

"I can't believe we are all already here." Ellen said before looking at me. "The guys playing on the big league, baby Ellie... I'm getting emotional" She said.

"Ow... It's okay."

It was a great game. Ellie had so much fun, already used to the atmosphere from the Canuck's games she had been in. And obviously she cheered for Lucky and Jacky a lot. Right after the game ended, you were called because the boys wanted to see you.

You found Luke on the corridor giving an interview, but we're surprised by Jack.

"Hey Ellie. Come with me. We are going to surprise Lucky"

You chuckled when he grabbed Ellie and she reached to pull his hair. "Ouch"

"Be nice to uncle Jacky"

She giggled and hugged Jack, you cuddled her and kissed her cheeks. "Did you enjoy the game?"

"Yes."

"Yes... Do you want to say hi to Lucky?"

"Yes"

"Let's go!"

Ellie was already famous around the hockey fan base.

You watch from afar how Jack walked with her on his arms before setting her down in the floor.

You: hey Quinny. Maybe you want to turn Luke's interviews now

Quinny: why?

You: trust me

"Go Ellie"

Ellie stumbled between the camera guy's legs until she was in front of Luke. Then, she grabbed into his sweats and pulled a bit.

"Lucky!"

He looked down and his smile got even bigger. He was the happiest guy right then.

"Oh hi!"

"Who is that?" The reporter said with a smile.

Luke picked her and she hugged his neck, turning a bit shy.

"The best Hughes" He said kissing her cheek.

"Oh, is that... Quinn's daughter?! On a Devils jersey?! She looks very much like you, Luke"

Luke laughed. "She is. I think Quinn let go of this one. It's my first game after all"

"Lucky" Ellie grabbed his face, wanting her uncle's attention all for herself.

"Yeah, yeah. I'm here. I'm answering questions" He said.

"Whats her name?"

"Ellie. Like Mama Hughes" He chuckled.

Ellen shook her head with a smile.

"Did Luke played well tonight?" The reporter asked her.

"Yes. Devs. Devs."

Everyone around laughed.

"A Devil's fan!" The reporter exclaimed. "And... Is Luke your favourite player or is it Jack?"

"No. Dad. Dad best" She said and you smiled so big.

"Yeah... A Canucks' fan before." Luke said.

"Yes. NUCKS. DAD."

You chuckled.

"We have a lot of time to fix that" Jack said stepping on the frame.

"Okay! Three Hughes on camera!"

"Yeah. It's a pity Quinny couldn't also be here for Lukey's first. But at least we have Ellie. Right princess?"

She chuckled and hid on Luke's neck.

A collective oww could be heard from the people around.

"Do we have a third generation of hockey players in the family?"

"Duh" Ellen whispered to you making you laugh.

"Well, she has recently learnt how to walk so..."

"Yeah, everyone hid it from us. She came to say hi and she was already walking and I was like... What? Next thing is university" Jack said laughing.

Now that he had his little brother with him, Jack was happier than ever. He was chatty and always smiling big. It made you feel kind of sad to imagine how could it be with the three of them.

"So next thing is the ice"

Both brothers shared a look and nodded.

"Well, thank you very much to the Hughes and good luck on your career, Luke. Also... Good luck converting this little one to the Devils"

"Say bye, Ellie"

On his phone, Quinn saw Ellie saying a shy bye to the camera, that little part of his reserved personality showing in her. He smiled softly.

When the guys walked to you, Jack was already making grabby hands at her to convince her to switch. But no, little Ellie was with Luke and she wouldn't let go.

"I'm her favourite" He teased his brother. Jack rolled his eyes and you hugged his side.

"Well played, boys." You told them. "Ellie was really happy"

She looked at you and smiled a bit. She usually got shy when she was tired, so it was you signal.

"Do you want dinner?" Jack said. "The last time we were here we went to this place and you guys will love it"

You guys went out for din er after the game. As usual, Ellie fell asleep on Jack's lap and he cuddled with her the whole time.

"When are you seeing Quinny?" Luke asked.

"We will meet here once the season is over" You told him.

He nodded slowly and looked down at your hands.

"Is there something bugging you?" You whispered.

He shook his head.

"I was..." He cleared his throat. "I was thinking that maybe once we arrive to New Jersey Jack and I could talk to someone and... Maybe Ellie can have her first skate. Once Quinn arrived. I have been thinking g about what you told me that day in the lake house, about Quinn wanting me... Us... For Ellie's first time on the ice. And now she walks and... "

"She can barely walk 3 meters without falling" You said giggling. "Do you think she can skate?"

He smiled and nodded. "I think she can. She is sure a natural. It's on her blood"

"Well, you should talk to dad Huggy first. Maybe her first skate with the devils..."

Luke laughed. "Well, I'm sure there is some place we can go"

"I'll tell Quinny, yeah?"

He nodded.

Later that night, Ellie was peacefully sleeping on the bed and you had Quinn on the phone.

"She had a great time. I can't wait for you to be here, to support the guys with us and all"

You heard him sigh. He was tired after his own game, but couldn't go to sleep without calling you.

"I wish I could have gone" He muttered.

"I know. We all missed you"

You rolled in the bed to check on Ellie.

"Luke asked me something"

Quinn hummed with curiosity.

"First thing, they were delighted to see her walking already"

Quinn chuckled because he already knew what was coming.

"He asked me if we could go to the rink for Ellie's first skate"

Quinn laughed. "She can barely walk"

"I know. But he looked... I don't know. He was so happy, Quinn."

Quinn ran his hand over his hair. "Well, we can't promise it will be good but..."

"We can have a lot of fun. I'm sure she will love it"

"For sure."

"You should call them in the morning" You whispered.

"Yeah, I was planning on doing it."

You stayed for a bit in silence.

"YN"

"Hm"

"Thank you for taking her. He will kill me if I tell you but Jack texted and... He adores you."

"Quinn, there is no need to thank me"

"I know, I know. But it was an important day for the family. So thank you"

"It's my family too."

"I love you"

Ellie stirred a bit and muttered a mommy.

"I'm here, sweetheart" You whispered and caressed her hair. "She is exhausted. Did you saw her with the guys?"

"Yeah. What a star"

You chuckled. "But she is a little shy like you"

"Just a little"

Ellie clinged into you.

"Are you tired?"

"Exhausted"

"Then go to sleep, bub." You told him. "I'll talk to you tomorrow"

"Call me when she wakes up"

"You will be asleep"

"Maybe wait till I call you"

You chuckled. "Of course."

"I love you"

"I love you too. Rest. You played well tonight"

.

.

.

"Dad!"

You were at Jack's (and now Luke's) flat and the door had just opened.

"Ellie!"

She laughed loudly and ran to Quinn, who hugged her tight.

Quinn was a completely different person when Ellie was around. He was literally the sun and some fans and people that didn't know him deeply were truly confused when he showed this side.

"Hey, how have you been?"

"Funny"

"Funny. You had a lot of fun with the boys, right?"

"Yes. Lucky and Jacky." She said and pointed at Jack.

"Yay. What did we do?" Jack asked her.

She cheeky smiled and snored.

Quinn laughed and walked to you. "I'm sure she hasn't been napping the whole time"

"She naps more with Jacky" You said

"What can I say, she loves me" Jack said.

Quinn shook his head and kissed Ellie's cheek. "Dada" She hugged him.

"Ow" He hugged her too.

"Did you miss Dad, Ellie?" You asked

"Yes"

"I missed you too, sweetie" He said slowly rocking her.

Jack smiled for himself. It was so incredible to see his big brother like that. Luke appeared, freshly showered and with his hair dripping water.

"Hey, I didn't hear you coming"

Quinn turned around. "You come here and give me hug"

The two brothers hugged and trapped Ellie between them, who was delighted and found it hilarious.

"Lucky! Dad is mine!"

The four of us laughed. "He was my brother first" Luke defended himself. "He is mine"

"No, mine" She clinged to Quinn's neck.

"She missed Dad a lot" You said hugging Quinn's waist. Ellie nodded.

"At least we don't have to see you two moping around all the day" Luke said.

"We have missed Quinn a lot" You said pinching him.

The day was calm. All of you stayed in and relaxed, but at night, Luke and Jack had something in mind.

"We have a gift for Ellie"

"It's not her birthday" You said. Quinn nodded in agreement as he bit the pizza. "What did we said about getting her used to lots of gifts?"

"It's bold of you to assume we would obey" Jack pointed. You shook your head with a chuckle. "It's special. It's also from mum and dad. Mum chose it actually"

"Okay" Quinn sighed. "Ellie, come here, sweets. Lucky and Jacky have something for you"

She looked up from her toys and crawled to Quinn, who picked her up and put her on his lap.

"Are you excited, sweetheart?" You said.

"Yes!"

Luke appeared with a box and Quinn and you instantly knew what it was. Quinn felt something tight on his chest and you saw how his lips shook slightly. You moved closer and hugged his waist.

Ellie was a menace and broke the paper in a million pieces, revealing a brand new pair of little skates as soon as she opened the box.

"Hockey!"

The four of you laughed at her excitement. She even reached to grab one.

"Hey, careful love" Quinn helped her. "Do you like them?"

"It's time for her to get on the ice" Luke said with a little smile.

Quinn kissed the top of Ellie's head and turned to look at you. You smiled and kissed his lips softly, hearing the more than usual gag from Jack.

"Do you like them Ellie?" Luke asked reaching for her. He tickled her sides and she giggled.

"Yes"

"How much? This much?" Luke showed her a size with his hands and Ellie told him no before move them apart. "This much?! That's a lot!"

"Yes. MUCH".

"MUCH!"

You laughed. "Say thank you, Ellie" You tried. She had never said it.

She looked at you with big light eyes and waited for you to repeat it. "Thank you, baby. Say Thank you"

"Thank you"

You all cheered and she screamed thank you again.

"Well, do you want to go to the ice?"Quinn squeezed her.

.

.

.

Quinn was kneeling in front of Ellie, who was sitting on a bench with her skates already on. He knew well she wouldn't be able to skate on her own, she could barely walk a few steps. But his brothers were excited, they were already on the ice with you. You weren't the most graceful skater and needed time to warm up every single time, it was as of you needed a reminder of how to do it. So there they were, one on each side ready to catch you while Ellen and Jim skated around.

"Is Quinn fine?" Jack asked you quietly.

Quinn had already started to tie Ellie's skates.

"I think so. He is emotional now. This is a big thing for a hockey dad, isn't it"

They chuckled and discreetly looked back.

"Quinny is a hockey dad, I can't believe it" Jack mussed. "Well, he is a future hockey dad"

You chuckled. "I think it will take her a bit to play hockey"

"Nah, we are giving her a stick next time she is on the ice" Luke simply said. "She is a Hughes"

"She is a Hughes" You said with a smile. Being a Hughes was one of the best things that ever happened to you and you couldn't believe you had found such a fantastic family.

Quinn looked up at Ellie and took a deep breath. It was a big day, a huge day. He was nervous as hell. But his daughter giggled and cupped his face with her chubby hands. "Dad"

"Ellie" He said gently.

"Love you"

Quinn smiled so big and she patted his cheeks. "Scratchy" She said feeling his beard.

He put her closer and leaned to blow raspberries on her cheeks and neck, making the little girl giggle and try to push him away. "No! Dad scratchy"

"I love you too, Ellie" He said pulling back.

"And mum"

"And mum" He said with that funny feeling setting on his chest. "Are you ready?"

"Yes"

He picked her in his arms and stepped on the ice. She squeaked and called for Luke and Jack.

You were grabbing hard into Jack's arm, but Luke let go of you and skated to them.

"Ok. Everyone ready?" Quinn said leaving Ellie hanging by grabbing her under her arms.

"Yes" Ellie giggled.

Ellen already had her phone out ready to film her granddaughter's first skate ever. You were grabbing hard into Jack's arm. Being a mum was scary, your baby's firsts were scary. How would it be? Would she like it? What if it went wrong?

"Sweetheart, Dad won't let you fall, yeah?" Quinn said. "I've got you"

Quinn set her foot on the ice and Ellie started moving them. It made him chuckle. "Don't move them. Like that. Well done"

Once she was standing, he carefully moved to grab her by the hands, finding his daughter was desperately trying to grab into him. "I've got you" He whispered.

You leaned against Jack's shoulder, who couldn't contain his huge smile. Luke was quiet. He always got quiet in moments like this. But it wasn't because he wasn't happy, it was because the feels always hit too hard. Meanwhile, Ellen was really emotional, barely containing her tears watching another Hughes kid getting on the ice.

"Like this, baby." Quinn said and slowly dragged his hands forward. With her dad pushing her, Ellie finally moved over the ice. She was still shocked, probably feeling too weird.

"Look at you, sweetheart! You are doing so good" You said. Quinn looked at you and smile, making you feel again as in the beginning of the pregnancy. He would come to talk to the bump while stealing little joyful glances at you. Tears filled your eyes and you had to dry them.

Quinn couldn't really picture how he was feeling. He was proud and happy but also scared because it seemed like yesterday when he could finally hold his girl. She was now on the ice and she was growing so fast.

"You are a natural, Ellie" Ellen said. She giggled and kicked her feet, obviously not knowing they were in charge of keeping her up.

If it wasn't for Quinn, she would have fallen, but he didn't let her. Still, she got a little bit scared a big frown painted her face.

A collective oww was heard.

"It's alright. It's alright, Ellie" Quinn told her

She looked up and pouted, but Quinn started giving kisses and she laughed loudly instead of crying.

Having the little scared solved, Quinn and Ellie moved forward for a bit and she fi ally seemed to relax, even more when Luke opened his arms for her.

Soon, the guys took over and grabbed her, one on each hand, to help her move. She was barely doing nothing, but there was so much happiness on her face. Ellen was making sure of documenting everything, taking pictures of the boys, Jim, you, selfies...

Time flew and soon you felt Quinn's hands on your waist.

"Hey babe".

You turned your face and he kissed your lips.

"Hi"

"Come with me for a second"

You both skated away, the other barely noticing. Quinn was shaking, literally shaking. He had never felt like this. Only when Ellie was born, maybe.

"What's wrong Quinn?"

He took a shaky deep breath and moved you so you were blocking him from the others eyes'.

"Don't make a big thing please" He was serious and it worried you.

"Is it the team? Are they trading you?" You barely had time to talk in person about the end of his season or the last games or anything. You didn't know if he got news from the team and you felt bad now for not having asked.

"No, no. Not about the team".

You laid your hands on his chest. "You are scaring me, Quinn"

"Okay"

He looked into your eyes and then back at the family, all happy playing with Ellie. Now she was on Luke's arms as he skated away from Jack, who was chasing them. Nellie's laugh was loud. Jim was telling Luke to go faster and Ellen was telling Jakc to leave them alone. Luke was pure Joy with Ellie on his arms. It remind Quinn why he was about to do what he had in mind.

"Okay, YN. I was planning on this this differently. I wanted to take you out, just the two of us. But... Before leaving the guy's house... I saw it and it kind of calling my name and I know it's the perfect moment now"

"Calling your name? What are you talking about, Quinny?"

He took another deep breath. "Don't make a bit deal. I want it to be discreet because those little shits will tease a lot"

You nodded. "Quiet" You said like you always told Ellie when she got too loud.

"Quiet" He repeated on the same tone. Then, he reached for his inner pocket.

You contained your breathed and observed his moves. When he pulled his hand out, there was a ring between his fingers. You gasped and covered your mouth.

"Quinn"

"You are perfect. Even if it wasn't in the traditional way, you brought the biggest happiness and treasure to me and my family. I love you like I've never loved no one and each day I discover that I can love you even more. You and Ellie are the best thing that ever happened to me and... I want to marry you, YN"

You nodded quickly with tears in your eyes.

"I want to marry you too, Quinny" You said put of breath.

He biggest smile appeared on his lips before he reached for your hand with his shaky one. He was so nervous and it was so cute.

"I adore you, Quinn. I love you so much." You said put of breath.

He kissed you gently and then hugged you tight.

"Thank you for giving all of this" You whispered. "For wanting to share so much of you with me"

He kissed your temple and opened his eyes. "Oh fuck."

"Oh fuck. Already regret-"

"Mum, Dad! Be careful" Luke shouted at you and a second later passed flying, closely followed by Jack.

Quinn was quick enough to pull you close and not let you fall, still too clumsy on your skates. "Be careful!" Quinn scolded them.

But it was no use, Ellie was laughing like a mad girl while she tightly grabbed her uncle. You chuckled and hugged Quinn tighter. You couldn't believe you had a ring on your finger.

It had all started with Petey introducing you and then everything had been so smooth. Ellie had arrived like a hurricane and now you were engaged.

"What are you thinking about?"

"You just proposed" You whispered.

He chuckled and kissed your forehead.

"I did. And you said yes"

"I said yes"

"Mum!!!!" She was so loud that even from the other side of the ice and over the other's laughs you heard her.

You giggled. "Mind helping me get there?"

"Of course, Bambi"

You rolled your eyes.

"I'm not that clumsy"

"You are, my fiancee" He whispered the last part.

You spent another hour on the ice while feeling in a cloud, exchanging giddy glances with Quinn and playing with Ellie. In the end, she could barely keep her head up and once you arrived at the restaurant you were having dinner at, she sat on JAck and leaned on his chest.

"Do you want to sleep?" Quinn asked and she nodded.

Jack chuckled. "Am I your favourite uncle?" He asked.

"No" She shamelessly said in her cute sleepy voice. "Lucky"

"Oh" Jack exclaimed with fake anger. "You guys need to have another one because this one it's impossible to convince"

"Yeah, and Ellie 2.0 will also prefer me" Luke said.

Ellen shook her head. "They will have another one once they are ready, not when you guys ask for it"

Luke saw the opportunity and took it. "After the wedding?"

Quinn and you gasped loudly.

"The... wedding?" Jack asked.

"The ring. It wasn't there when we arrived at the ring"

Jim laughed loudly. "It's always the quiet ones, isn't it"

Ellen quickly reached for your hand. Quinn was blushing so hard.

"You guys..."

"Quinn proposed" You squeaked with the biggest smile.

Ellen hugged you and then looked at her son. "It was taking so long!"

"So long?!"

"Well, seeing how quickly you got her..."

A quick elbow to the ribs and Jack shut up.

You were all laughing. "I think it was the right time" You said looking at Quinn. He looked down at his hands and nodded.

"Yeah."

"I'm so happy for you and the ring it's beautiful, Quinny" Ellen said and then looked at you. "It suits you"

Quinn smiled and hugged your shoulders. "Remember when Ellie and I got stuck in the traffic after doing the groceries?"

You nodded. "We were choosing it. Ellie chose it"

You gasped and looked at her, already sleeping on Jack's chest.

"Wow" Was all you could say. You had never felt such happiness in your life.

This didn't end up as I was expecting, but better this than nothing!"

A date to remember

You would have never guessed you'd end up fancying them. Debating whether or not to confront your crush would be a difficult dicision for anyone. Now add the extra pressure of them being apart of the Donquixote family, and you're in for an emotional rollercoaster.

CW: SFW, fluff, headcanons, gn!reader

Doflamingo, Caesar, Corazon

pt 1, pt 2

Doflamingo: As intimidating as he is, you were still caught in his web. Being shy about asking him would not fair well for you—you'd need to hold your head high and ask with confidence. Oh, he agreed to it! Oh...oh no.

You end up choosing between live entertainment and logic based:

War reenactment: Choosing a reenactment that was particularly engrossing might just make him forget that it's not real. Be sure to choose one with the highest reviews too. This could range from a wide-range of history, giving you much to consider.

Escape room: Not many would willingly lock themselves in a room with him, but this offered you a unique experience to share with him: solve the puzzle and best whomever thought they'd be able to trick you two.

After all is said and done, you'd have quite the stories and inside jokes to share between yourselves. Depending on your choice for these particular activities, he'd grant you with a feverish kiss―leaving you wanting more.

Caesar: He can be a tad sporadic when it comes to his personal feelings, but you seem to have come across him on a genuinely good day. You take your shot. He stares at you, scanning your face for your true intentions but lets his curiosity take over. So, yay?

You decide on something experimental:

Testing limits with high voltage: Gather a large amount of toys which are battery operated. Be sure to have a wide range of what the toys can actually do. Wire them up, see which ones start popping, smoking, and catch fire with different voltage levels.

Punkin chunkin: Pumpkins are pretty common to use for this activity, but why should you limit yourselves? Use items that may give you the messiest results! The most distructive! The most outright bizarre items to chuck into the air to create fun memories.

Once you both have had you fill of destruction and chaos for the time being, the excitement of it all would still be fresh. Laughing about some of the results, he'd suggest how you can make changes for next time. Wait, next time?

Corazon: Despite him being as preoccupied as he was, you couldn't hold back your feelings for him any longer. He's incredibly genuine, so when you confess your feelings, he blushes like mad. When you ask him out, he'd be flustered but still happily accept. Can't wait, right?

You come to something thoughtful:

Arcade/Retro arcade bar: You two would favor the games that were two player, of course. Even if he turned out to be better than you at the games, he'd let you win. On single players, you'd cheer each other on and try to top each other's scores. At the end of the date, you'd use your tickets to purchase prizes for the other.

Cooking for each other and having a movie night at home: Quality time is something he'd love to spend with you. Creating a meal together would be so romantic that he'd find it hard to stop smiling. Cuddling with a movie afterwards would make him melt and be ideal for kissing.

The night concluded in the most perfect way he could have imagined. Which ever option you decided on, he'd lean in a bit closer to give you the chance to show him you're interested in kissing. If you are, he'd love to show his appreciation. If not, a warm hug would do nicely.

“Give me a hug?” Pt.1

brian zvonecek x fem!reader

a/n: bear with me since this is my first one-shot sorry if it’s bad! also i didn’t really expect this to turn into a two parter so i’m sorry 😭😭. (also also i’m super surprised since i’ve gotten a lot done with my account organization tonight so yay me!?)

warnings: swearing, possible bad grammar, the fluffiest fluff to have ever fluffed, and more fluff. (+angsttt)??, anything i missed

pt.2

sorry not sorry hehe

“Give me a hug?” you ask patiently in front of Otis who was in the middle of reading a book in the common room.

You feel everyone’s eyes watch you after your bold request but you don’t care because your eyes don’t once leave Otis. He looks up after a few seconds and glances around the room before standing up.

“Course.” is all he says while wrapping his arms around your torso as your arms find their place behind his neck. Taking a deep breath in you inhale his signature cologne and close your eyes.

This is your happy place. Right in his arms. You figured this out early on in your relationship, every time you have a bad day, or a bad shift, all you have to do is ask Otis for a hug and it helps for the time being. Of course everyone else was judgy in the beginning but now it’s apart of everyone’s routine.

They walk in, get a cup of coffee, get some breakfast, either get a call or sit and watch TV for a little bit, then you ask Otis for a hug, and the day continues.

After a few seconds you step a way and give him a smile. “Thanks,” is all you say before walking back out to the app floor to which he responds with a nod and sits back down to continue reading.

A few hours later Otis comes to find you sitting on the back of the ambulance and stands between your separated legs.

“Hi” is all you say as he grabs your hands and holds them gently.

“Hey, what do you want for dinner tonight?” He asks while lazily grazing the back of your hands with each of his thumbs while looking into your eyes.

“Umm, anything is fine what were you thinking?”

“Ah, spaghetti?”

“Do we have stuff for spaghetti?”

“Shit you’re right. We haven’t gone to the store.” He drops his head back in irritation which makes you giggle.

“I can go tonight when we get off.”

“No, no, no, it’s been a rough shift and I just wanted you to relax, you shouldn’t have to go to the store.”

“But you don’t like going and I can be really fast.” You say wiggling your eyebrows in amusement to appease his protest.

After a few seconds of mutual giggling he squints his eyes and makes the exact request you specifically forbid last night.

“What if we just order in?”

You give Otis a ‘seriously’ look before you just gave in and nodded your head.

“Yes! I can order in from that one Thai place you like!” He says cheerfully.

“Okay, but this is the last night then we’re not ordering in for a month.” You say strictly solely because the two of you have ordered in too many times in the last 3 weeks and you both need a cleanse.

“Scout’s honor.” He says holding up three fingers which makes you giggle.

“C’mere” is all you say while pulling him closer meeting your lips with his.

The kiss was slow and sweet so after a few seconds when he tries to back away you pull him in again and place 3 seperate quick pecks on his lips before you truly pull away.

“Otis! Come help!” You hear Cruz yell for your boyfriend and you roll your eyes. By the tone of Joe’s voice you know he’s only calling after Otis for something stupid like to break a tie in a game or something.

“Catch you later?” Is all Otis says with a raised eyebrow as you watch him walk away back to the common room.

You continue watching him walk away but your heart feels heavy and you don’t like that.

“Wait!” you shout as you catch up with a now stopped Otis who turned around confused wondering what the matter is.

“Give me a hug.” Is all you ask standing barely a foot a way from your boyfriend who now is the one to give you the ‘seriously’ face.

You raise your eyebrows and open your arms impatiently as he playfully rolls his eyes and picks you up into a big bear hug spinning you around saying “You are so demanding you know that right?”

Once he sets you down with his hands resting on your hips, the statement he said finally sunk in making your heart drop.

“I love you, моя любовь (my love)” Is all he says while pulling you into a real hug and squeezing you gently.

You exhale deeply while closing your eyes and thinking about what he said. The hug provides little to no effect as to what it normally does and you pull away unsatisfied. Does he really think you’re demanding?

“I love you too…” Is your only response after a few seconds watching him walk back into the firehouse.

The rest of the night went smoothly as you tried to push his perception of you out of your mind but when you layed in bed that night you reflected. As you were remembering all the times you asked for a hug, or anything for that matter, you never said please. You were never nice or polite. Always demanding. So when you were thinking about your next shift, you decided you would no longer demand anything from him. Even if it made your heart twinge as you thought about no more hugs unless he initiated them, it was for the best. He doesn’t deserve to be with someone who wasn’t going to respect what he wanted or felt, so you were no longer making any demands.

During your next shift Ambulance 61 was immediately sent out onto a call to which you quickly found out that the patient was DOA. Since you missed breakfast you arrived back at 51 at about the time you would ask for your first hug which made your heart hurt, but when you stepped into the common room you walked right past Otis got a cup of coffee, and walked right back out.

No one really said anything, It’s not like you were avoiding Otis or that the two of you had some crazy tension, you just skipped the fact that you would ask him for a hug. Now to distract yourself you took yourself out to the ambulance to restock and repack anything you needed.

But about an hour later suspicions started to rise.

“Is it just me or does it feel like I forgot to do something today?” Herrmann questioned out to which majority in the room agreed.

“I mean I wouldn’t say I forgot to do something but I definitely feel like something is missing…” Gabby said in response as they all thought about what they could have missed in their normal routine.

“Oh! has someone checked to see if the milk is expired?” Cruz asks as he made his way to the fridge.

“No, that doesn’t seem like that’s it Cruz.” Otis said in response to his best friend.

“When was the last time we put gas in the trucks?” Lieutenant Casey asked taking a sip of his coffee.

“On the last call,” Herrmann said back.

“Is it anyone’s birthday today?” Gabby asked knowing that’s probably the one thing they’ve all forgotten.

“No, I just checked the calendar and there’s nothing for today.” Casey then said in response.

“Well I’m stumped.” Severide said as he flipped the page in his newspaper since he really didn’t care that much in the first place.

A few people chuckled at his nonchalance towards the matter then sat in an anxious silence as to what could they have all forgotten.

“It’s not expired guys!” Cruz finally said out to no one in particular to which no one in particular replied.

“Wait guys, It’s 10:34…” Mouch said as everyone looked at him confused because what significance does 10:34 hold?

“10:34?” Stella asked in response confused.

“It’s 10:34, and you know what hasn’t happened? Y/LN asking Otis for her daily hug.” Mouch stated as a matter of factly.

Herrmann scrunched his face thinking if that was what hadn’t happened today but it didn’t really click.

“Really?” Herrmann said doubtfully.

“Yeah, It makes perfect sense. Y/N always comes and asks Otis for a hug between 9:45 am and 10:00 am. Always on the dot one way or another, even with unexpected calls and stuff it happens everyday.” Mouch says trying to convince everyone.

Otis sat in his seat thinking about what Mouch was saying and it made perfect sense. Thats what hadn’t happened today.

“Mouch, I mean I wouldn’t get to worked up over that, she probably forgot and will probably come in here sometime soon and ask.” Herrmann said trying to come up with a reason as to why it hasn’t happened.

“No, Mouch is right. She doesn’t just “forget”. It’s happened everyday in that time frame for the whole time I’ve worked here, and that’s like 9 months now.” Stella said halfway at Herrmann and halfway at Otis.

“Otis what’d you do man?” Gabby says as a joke which obviously shook Otis because he sat in his spot white as a ghost.

“I didn’t do anything I don’t think. But Mouch is right, there has not been a day I haven’t given her that hug between that time frame for like years now.” Otis said rubbing his chin worriedly.

“Hey man, I wouldn’t worry too much about it okay? She’ll be in here on her own time to ask for that hug.” Herrmann says lightly tapping Otis on the arm and walking towards the kitchen.

“No, I’d be worried. Did you forget to do the dishes? Because that’s what Trudy messes regular routines up for, you know one time..”

“Mouch! Leave the kid alone it’ll happen.” Herrmann says in a warning tone at Mouch who put his hands up in surrendering manner.

“I’ll bet you $50 that you should be worried Otis.” Cruz said in a not helping tone at both Otis and Herrmann.

“$150 he’ll be fine.” Herrmann says back.

“$200-“

“Stop! I’m just gonna go talk to her now okay?” Otis said standing up from the table in the common room when at the same time the bell rang.

“Ambulance 61, GSW”

“I guess not.” Otis said sitting back down and sighing.

“Better start figuring out what you did,” Casey said lightly squeezing Otis’ shoulder and giving him a shit eating grin.

Pressing his lips into a line Otis began thinking of the night before…

a linguist plays chants of sennaar (pt 3)

[pt 1] [pt 2] [x] [pt 4] [pt 5]

onwards and upwards!

disclaimer: can't promise that i'll have any insights that a layperson wouldn't have, this is kinda just me thinking through the grammar of the language out loud haha.

this post covers the third language and will contain spoilers! it also assumes that you know what all of the symbols mean already.

have a huge soft spot for this language the most out of all of them haha. again, missed part of the gameplay for the dictionary—i couldn’t find the last fruit to feed the monkey lmao. also, i had the game open while writing this post this time, so more screenshots, yay!

visually, i'd say that this compares to arabic script or devanagari, especially with the line that runs through all of the characters, but it's still a logographic language. culturally/artistically, i think it's meant to represent how flow-y and artistic the bards are haha. i also remember seeing something once about the thai script (which this is not entirely dissimilar to) and how it was originally written on organic matter (eg leaves, bark, etc idk) and needed to have loops in order to work against the grain of the leaves. i haven’t done my due diligence and confirmed that in any historical or anthropological context yet, but it seems plausible to me?? the bards do seem to have a more tropical environment, tho again it’s likely just an artistic decision haha

once again, in terms of visual patterns in the words, we can see that a verb is indicated by a dot in the top right hand corner. the people words ("warrior", "bard", "you", "i/me") seem to all have a swoopy symbol that crosses the horizontal line, which is interesting. the only exception is "idiot", which might be because it's primarily functions as an adjective. locative nouns, including the cardinal directions, have a dot below the line. the only noun that includes a dot is “compass”, which might be a reflection of its connection to location? as in it contains locations, or navigates to locations? i’m uncertain. interestingly, the only non-person nouns that touch the horizontal line are “monster” and “greeting”, which might also be indicative of the senses of those words—if we recategorize “monster” with the people-words and “greeting” with the verbs, then we don’t have any outliers. however, this would include a word without a dot in the verb category. perhaps at some point in the evolution of the bard’s language, “greeting” lost its verb features? again, i’m unsure and possibly reading too far into it lmao.

this is our first OSV (object subject verb) language! ngl, i was annoyed by the way the game chose to translate the meaning into english—there are plenty of verb-final languages out there irl, no need to be so literal with the translation lol. amusingly, we see this being the most apparent when translating between the bards’ language (which is OSV and has plural marker suffixes) and the warriors’ language (which is SVO and has plural marker prefixes). absolutely none of the characters line up w each other lmao

(we can also see from this exchange that there’s no distinction between “go/pass” (i.e, from here to there) and “come” (from there to here), which is not something that i specifically noted before. interesting! again, i assume this is due to the capacity of these languages being limited.)

this is also our first possible (possible) indication of punctuation, with “question”. i’ve seen some people directly translate the “question” word as <¿?> (the punctuation marks), which i’m hesitant to do, especially considering that there’s no other evidence of punctuation in any of the languages. irl, japanese (and other languages) has a question word <か>, which indicates orally that something is a question—the bards’ language could easily have something similar.

we also see this mirrored in “not” in terms of grammatical structure, which probably indicates something about how auxiliary verbs are used/placed in this language (even tho “not” isn’t a verb—i’m sure there’s a linguistic category that includes the both of them but it escapes me rn). someone else on tumblr called this negative concord, and julia on an sss stream likened it to the french “ne pas”, and yes that is what this is, but it’s also… a little different?? my academic interest in linguistics when i was in school lay more in socio-cultural contexts than syntax so this is definitely NOT my area of expertise at all, so take what i say here with a large hunk of salt:

after some very brief research, it seems that negation can either take place at the sentence-level (e.g., through verbs like “can’t” or “won’t”) or through negative words (e.g., “nobody”, “nowhere”). so, a sentence like “i don’t go nowhere” (meaning “i don’t go anywhere”) achieves double negation through negating once at the sentence-level and once at the word-level. standard english doesn’t have negative concord, but some dialects do. different languages treat multiple negation differently; sometimes it conveys a slightly different meaning (from wikipedia: “you’re not unattractive” vs “you’re attractive”) and sometimes it intensifies the negation (also from wikipedia: “i haven’t never owed nothing to no one”).

the thing that i’m struggling with in the bard’s language is that the negation isn’t… attached to anything??? it’s not affixed to a verb or a noun, so really it’s not conveying negation of a particular thing, it’s negation of the whole sentence….???? which (in my mind) isn’t… really… negative concord. if that makes sense. like sure, there’s two symbols of it at both ends of the sentence, but it’s more indicative of the meaning of the sentence as a whole, rather than conveying smth abt a specific word. like it's not as if both of them mean "no" or each of them are adding meaning in a particular way. so. that’s why i’m more inclined to take it as a general grammatical feature of the language, along with “question”, and say that this is just how the language treats auxiliary/modal/whatever words??? it’s not as if we have other evidence. 😐

another option could be that negation w a noun takes places as a prefix (e.g., "not-warrior") and negation w a verb takes place as a suffix (e.g., "be-not"), so because of the OSV word order, you end up with something like ("not-warrior you be-not" or "a warrior, you're not").

HOWEVER. we do see some instances of the game's internal translation of some sentences conveying a slightly different meaning than a pure ('pure') negation, which makes figuring out the syntactic structure of this language kinda difficult.

if we take each of the "not" words as a negation, we'd end up with "not-hammer i carry-not", which is not "a hammer, i miss" lol. (to demonstrate w an english equivalent example: "i ain't no warrior" vs "i don't carry no hammer"). if you're a speaker of a negative concord language/dialect, pls pls feel free to correct me here; my intuition's going to be slightly off because i haven't studied any languages where this would be relevant. I think it could work, probably, but again, it's really difficult to say anything concrete without more examples. given its congruence with the "can you get a hammer" example, though, i really am inclined to say that this is just a grammar thing, not a negative concord thing (even tho negative concord IS a grammar thing—you get my drift).

questions that remain unanswered: - does the fact that "question" is two dots relate to the presence of dots in the verbs and locative nouns?

I'm trying to write a fic where it's set in the middle of the forest on there own, no phone singal, no medicine or drugs to numb the pain or knock out the person and no way to call for help and there is the mc, one doctor, one surgeon, one ex-army medic, one nurse and one psychologist. Just so happens the mc gets appendicitis. Yay.... and now they have to do some field surgery. How would they go about this? How long would it take for symptoms to start progessing (note charcter keeps insiting that they are fine) and then to be noticed by the group. Then what happens? How to they do it? How does the person getting it done to them react? Im assuming they are going to need to restrain them somehow and comofrt them. How do I make it that none of them die? Also could you please do a post on how people react to pain? I think that could help a lot of us whump writers! I know some people scream and cry but when it gets real bad they fall silent... is that true?

Saint Morpheus Bookbinding, pt 1: Behind the Scenes

(This will be a very long post)

Three weeks ago, I had already had an idea of what project I wanted to torture (positive) myself with: so I giddily hopped off and asked @landwriter if I could bind her achingly good Dreamling fic Saint Morpheus. (If you haven't read it, consider this my blanket glowing recommendation).

Permission granted, I was off!

People have asked me about my work before. This post is not meant to be educational (though all I learned was through Sea Lemon on YT; don't ask me for a more in-depth explanation bc I am not equipped to give it), but I didn't want to have took all these in-progress pictures for nothing. Also I enjoy talking about my work, and maybe some of you will find this interesting.

The formatting-page process undoubtedly takes the longest. I do not use any software, so this is a lot of me using the copy-paste button and praying to any god that will listen that I don't mess it up.

(Formatting: I used 10 pt Sitka Text with no alignment. The pages themselves are a template I made in LibreOffice)

I had also decided to complete illustrations for this, which created additional pages. I had a lot of fun with those, which I'll be posting in pt 2.

Once all the pages were done, it was time for printing!

I had a bunch of fat stacks like this, which then had to be cut to size and folded into the page signatures.

(a mostly-complete text block)

I also did fancy stuff for the inside pages, the ones that go on the outside of these text blocks and which would hold the text block to the cover.

(this is one, which was completed)

(here's another one, which was in-progress)

Then came the tedious work of punching all the holes, so I could actually bind the pages together!

(I had actually bought an awl over the holiday break. Can you imagine i was going all this with a needle before?)

(lots of sewing)

YAY! Text blocks were done!

Then I could finally get to work on the covers, which had been littering my floor for weeks.

My desk was also a proper mess, but that's just what happens.

Cutting the board and arranging the covers is fun, except when I knew I was on the home stretch and ended up messing up things.

(in-progress cover. I use PVA glue)

(in-progress front cover I was doing illustrations on)

And I would be nothing without failing a few times, so I might've accidentally glued on a text block upside down on that cover. Which then I had to rip off and rebind. I had to do that twice, actually, cause I fried my brain a few times over while working on these.

There's also some things I did which I did not take pictures of but will be included in the follow-up: I gilt the page edges, which I thought was a nice touch.

And now for the finished product....

How to Be a Model Pt 1: Starting at Home for Free

Who can be a model? Anyone can be a model! The best way to start modeling is in your house. 

Here is what you’ll need: 

- A phone with a camera. Make sure the phone has the flip photo feature as well so you can see how you look in the camera. 

- Good lighting. Turn on your lights and find your favorite type of lighting that would work well with your phone. If you turn up your portable lights (a lamp, a flashlight, etc) and then face the light to the wall (instead of you), the lighting fills up the room with soft light which is GREAT for modeling shots. Natural light (light from outside) is great for lighting as well. Go outside and see how you like the light there. Explore and experiment. See what lighting works best for you!

- A new email account to send the pictures to, or a Google Drive account to upload the photos from your phone. 

- A brand new Instagram for modeling.

Plan a day to shoot yourself. Choose 3-5 outfits and the makeup for that day. Then wait till the day of to take photos.

The Day You Start Phone Camera Modeling

When it is the day of, get your hair and makeup ready and then start taking pictures. CLICK CLICK CLICK. Go to another place in the room. CLICK CLICK CLICK. Go to the wall over there. CLICK CLICK CLICK. Go outside for another pose. CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK. Take all the photos you can until you can’t take it anymore. I go through about 100 shots per outfit or more. Just keep pressing the button!

Upload the photos to your Google Drive, delete them off your phone to make room for new pics, and then change your outfit. Repeat this process for all the outfits and looks until you are DONE with taking photos!

This is modeling and YOU ARE FABULOUS! Welcome to your model life.

When you are finished with all the photos grab a cup of coffee and go through all of your shots. Put every photo on Drive and leave it alone for a couple days UNLESS you see the shot you KNOW you'll put online. Narrow down to one shot per outfit. Email the ones you like of yourself or PLAN on posting on Instagram. Then post. Yay!

Look through and enjoy your beauty. You are beautiful!

For others, keep the photos for a week and then look at all the photos again. Then decide again. While waiting, plan a day and shoot some more! Shots from home can be some of your best shots. Repeat the process. After a time, you can officially determine which photos are best for your IG account.

Wow the books with different looks! Shoot with:

* A different makeup style

* Different outfits and hairstyles

* Different settings

* Art/avant garde concepts (creative with the cosmetics and items in your home)

*,Anything you find on the Internet that you feel would make a good concept.

ADVANCED: Build your own modeling studio with a black or white sheet. Hang it up on the wall on all 4 ends. Make sure it is smooth. This is a good backdrop if you plan on taking pictures. This will also be good for later if you plan on having a photographer come to your home to take pictures (I will show you how to do that in my next blog post.)

ADVANCED: Get a friend to help you and partner up with the friend if you both wish to become models! Take as many pictures as you can. Go for it!

A LIFE SAVER FOR MODELS

There is a feature on Android that I love to use instead of pressing the click button so many times. You just record video and get the shots you want via the video. I record a video of me posing and then I export the frame I want into photos. This is good for still shots and also for videography if you ever wish to record. 

Here’s how to do it for Android Camera.

> Set up phone camera

> Press record

> Pose for about 10 minutes

> Play the video to see where you would want the shots. You can write down the numbers on a notepad (0:30 for example) of where you want the shot taken from the video. 

> Go to photos

> Play the video

> Go to “Edit”

> Find the shots you want in the camera

> Click the image on the bottom right which says “Export Frame”

> The photo you want should be saved in your Photos folder

For iPhone, Google says File > Export > Export Frame to Pictures. I don’t have an iPhone so hopefully this makes sense. 

Exporting to frame makes modeling time faster and easier. You don’t have to click a camera and you can get some really nice stunning shots. Also, if you ever have interest in adding to your video portfolio or to create content like music videos, video reels, etc., you can save the content for your projects and edit them for later.

There are many ways to use the photos you want if you wish to stop here. I use them for my IG Model account, dating sites, etc. Plus I feel good about myself.

I hope this information helped. Happy shooting! Next time we’ll be talking about modeling for professional photographers.

baking lessons for a so-called genius pt 1 (mizuki, rui, and nene besties fic!)

warnings! ...wholesome?

(a/n) pt 1 of a gift for @pjsk-writin!! enjoy ♡

˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚*ੈ✩‧₊˚

"Rui! Happy White Day!!" Mizuki's excited voice rang loud and clear from the said man's phone. It was early morning, but the girl had insisted on calling.

The purple-haired man chuckled. "So it is."

"We should bake something! Like..." The pink-haired girl's voice trailed off before she continued. "Cupcakes!!"

"..."

"Rui...?"

"...Cupcakes, you say?"

"Yes? Is... something wrong?"

"...Hold on. Let me add Nene to the call."

"Sure."

nenekusanagi_001 joined the call.

"Hey." Nene's quiet voice sounded. "What do you want?"

"Soooo!" Mizuki started happily. One could sense her energy through the phone, unlike Rui and Nene, who had both pulled an all-nighter coding and playing games, respectively. "Rui and I had these ideas for making cupcakes for White Day!"

"Sorry, I made this idea up now?"

"You have now! Anyways, can you guys come over... like, right now?" Mizuki's tone hadn't changed at all, still bubbly as ever. It made the other two, Rui and Nene, wonder if she had somehow gotten her hands on caffeine. They gravely hoped not, but that could very well be a possibility. The last time Mizuki had drunken a shot of espresso, she had been bouncing off the walls for at least fifteen hours afterwards.

"...Mizuki, you realize that we have lives that we cannot just throw away to prance off and make cupcakes with you." Rui sounded exasperated. On the other side of the call, Nene hummed in approval.

"Yes, I know that you have things to do, but I also know that the both of you are pathetically pitiful introverts who would much rather sit at home all day and do... introvert things."

"..."

"..."

"Well, am I wrong?"

"...Alright. I'm heading over, so lay off of me already."

"...I'll come too."

"Yay!! Thanks, you two!" Mizuki audibly brightened, talking faster as she grew more excited. "Well, I'm off to prepare some snacks and drinks! See you!!"

mizukiakiyama_♡ left the call.

"I'll leave too."

"Yep."

nenekusanagi_001 left the call.

inventorgenius624 left the call.

⁺˖ ⁺˖ ⁺˖ ⁺ 🕤 ⁺˖ ⁺˖ ⁺˖ ⁺

"...Do you not know...?" Even in the bright morning light, Nene's somber voice caused the surroundings to look eerie. "Rui's Great Baking Disaster..."

"Ahem! Let's not get into that, shall we-"

"Shush! I want to hear about it!!"

"Guys-!"

"It was one fateful night..."

Mizuki's face went slack with shock as her eyes widened. Trembling with fear, she brought a hand to her mouth before whispering in a barely audible tone - "They were... blue... and purple...??"

Nene nodded, face so pale it was almost gray.

"But... weren't they supposed to be vanilla cupcakes...? How-How could that be...??"

This time, the girl only glanced at Rui, who had found himself a place in the corner of the kitchen to sulk. In response to Nene's gaze, he peeked through the fingers he had used to cover his flushed face and peered out.

"I don't know it happened. It just did." Rui sounded almost like he was despairing - and he likely was in his little corner. "Now, if we're done talking about.. that, can we get on with the actual reason we came here?"

"Not so fast, mister!" Mizuki chided, cutting in immediately. "I know just the thing!" Clearing her throat, the girl adopted a serious tone before saying. "Here we see Rui... terrible baker, terrible cook... always has been shamed on for as far as he remembers... but that all changes today."

"For I have devised a class!! Let's start some baking classes for our so-called genius!!"

The Silver Blaze pt 1

Blazin' time.

Like I said on my commentary for Wisteria Lodge, I do remember this one. I will try not to give anything away. Although, again, I don't remember whodunnit, just whatwasdun and various assorted clues, which will probably mean that I will realise whodunnit as we go.

I also don't remember if the culprits die offscreen in a random shipwreck. Has anyone done a statistical analysis of the bad guys comeuppances in the Holmes stories? Probably. I feel like 'death by convenient shipwreck' is going to be up there.

“I am afraid, Watson, that I shall have to go,” said Holmes, as we sat down together to our breakfast one morning.

Woop, in media res this time. No commentary about how this is in the few months following Watson's wedding. Just BANG Holmes g2g.

When, therefore, he suddenly announced his intention of setting out for the scene of the drama it was only what I had both expected and hoped for. “I should be most happy to go down with you if I should not be in the way,” said I.

I think we underestimate what a relentless gossip fiend Watson is. He wants the tea, but he's far too respectable to just go over there and find out for himself, so he's been sitting there hoping that his bff will give him an excuse to go be nosy. And being an excellent bff, Holmes is doing just that.

We're going on a horse hunt, we're going to maybe catch a famous one... And we are going to judge literally everyone involved, because that is the Watson way.

Watson this time doesn't even mention his patients - or his wife - ACD has clearly decided not to bother trying to fit this into the continuity. How very fanfic of him. I support this choice.

“Our rate at present is fifty-three and a half miles an hour.” “I have not observed the quarter-mile posts,” said I. “Nor have I. But the telegraph posts upon this line are sixty yards apart, and the calculation is a simple one."

I was about to make a commentary about why Holmes was doing this, but then I remembered that I used to do pretty much the same thing on the motorway when I was a kid. Not with telegraph poles, but with the little markers for the emergency phones. So I really do not have a single leg to stand on. The only thing I can mock here is that he knows how far apart telegraph poles are and honestly I find that kind of a reasonable thing to know.

Yay maths!

"I presume that you have looked into this matter of the murder of John Straker and the disappearance of Silver Blaze?”

I did not remember the murder. I did remember the horse. I guess that tells you what 10yo me's priorities were. Although I never quite made it as a true horse girl.

"On Tuesday evening I received telegrams from both Colonel Ross, the owner of the horse..."

Another colonel. There are so many colonels. Far too many colonels. Other ranks are available.

"...Mapleton, which belongs to Lord Backwater..."

Lord Backwater? Really? Were you just not trying with names at this point Holmes? Lord Backwater who lives in the middle of nowhere? According to Google he also appeared in The Noble Bachelor, so maybe I should have noticed this then, but still.

Lord Backwater, who is probably good friends with Sir Yonder, Her Grace the Duchess of Inthastix, and Col. Rustical.

I'm going to stop now.

We do have the return of the 'gypsies', so I'm anticipating at least one person suggesting that they had something to do with it, because of course someone will. But they won't be the actual thieves, I'm pretty sure, just another red herring based on prejudice.

"She took no liquid, as there was a water-tap in the stables, and it was the rule that the lad on duty should drink nothing else."

Well that's a way to stop people from getting drunk on duty, I suppose. Although if they wanted to, they could just hide booze in the stable. Is it also intended to prevent them from being drugged? That's pretty extreme, considering their food is coming from the house anyway.

"As he stepped into the circle of yellow light thrown by the lantern she saw that he was a person of gentlemanly bearing, dressed in a gray suit of tweeds, with a cloth cap. He wore gaiters, and carried a heavy stick with a knob to it."

I will not make the joke. I will not make the joke. I will not make the joke.

A wizard's staff has a knob on the end.

...that was not the joke I was intending to make, but sure. Let's go with that. Enter stage left: A wizard with a knob on the end of his staff.

“‘Oh, indeed! What a stroke of luck!’ he cried. ‘I understand that a stable-boy sleeps there alone every night. Perhaps that is his supper which you are carrying to him. Now I am sure that you would not be too proud to earn the price of a new dress, would you?’ He took a piece of white paper folded up out of his waistcoat pocket. ‘See that the boy has this to-night, and you shall have the prettiest frock that money can buy.’"

If this guy isn't a deliberate plant, he is the worst at this. 'I understand that a stable-boy sleeps there alone every night.' How tf do you understand that if you came upon this place by accident. Also, creepy thing to say. Also 'I got lost on the moor, but I just happen to have this piece of paper in my coat for the stable-boy who is guarding the stable tonight, purely by accident.'

And that's not even getting into the creepy condescension of the 'you shall have the prettiest frock' bullshit. He's got to be doing this on purpose, right. You don't just walk up to someone and start throwing red flags at them while wearing a hat saying 'I'm totally trustworthy, wink'.

“‘Good-evening,’ said he, looking through the window. ‘I wanted to have a word with you.’"

Woman literally ran away from you rather than speak to him, and he's just like, 'I should keep going'. Read the room, or the...stableyard, I guess. But still, this man must be putting this on. I cannot believe anyone is this bad at anything. He's a deliberate decoy made of red flags.

"The girl fled away to the house, but as she ran she looked back and saw that the stranger was leaning through the window."

Right, so he left the message with Ned Hunter, then. Who may or may not be an accomplice in this.

"The door was open; inside, huddled together upon a chair, Hunter was sunk in a state of absolute stupor, the favorite's stall was empty, and there were no signs of his trainer."

I guess the 'you can only drink from the stable tap' rule didn't work, then. Who could have seen that coming? I guess Sus Wizard could have drugged Ned's food through the window. But that doesn't explain how he could have opened the stable, though. I'm inclined to think that Ned was in on it, but then I am a naturally suspicious person, and this feels like an inside job. I know earlier in the story it says that all of the stable boys are of excellent character, but that's hardly evidence. Locked stable - someone got in and got away? Inside job seems the most likely. Then drug yourself to say 'who, me? couldn't have been!'

"...he was wounded on the thigh, where there was a long, clean cut, inflicted evidently by some very sharp instrument. It was clear, however, that Straker had defended himself vigorously against his assailants, for in his right hand he held a small knife, which was clotted with blood up to the handle"

Or... he cut himself with his own knife.

"But from that morning he has disappeared, and although a large reward has been offered, and all the gypsies of Dartmoor are on the alert, no news has come of him."

Oh, hey. So no one is blaming the travellers. I stand corrected. Cool cool.

"He did not attempt to deny that he had acted as described upon the evening before, but declared that he had no sinister designs, and had simply wished to obtain first-hand information."

Is the sus wizard just an incompetent creepy buffoon? Is he really not involved at all? If so, wow. Guy needs to work on just... everything. Absolutely everything.

“Is in not possible,” I suggested, “that the incised wound upon Straker may have been caused by his own knife in the convulsive struggles which follow any brain injury?” “It is more than possible; it is probable,”

Yep. Glad we're all agreed on that. This would be a lot easier to clear up with DNA, but alas you are trapped in the Victorian era still.

"Two gentlemen were awaiting us in the station—the one a tall, fair man with lion-like hair and beard and curiously penetrating light blue eyes; the other a small, alert person, very neat and dapper, in a frock-coat and gaiters, with trim little side-whiskers and an eye-glass. The latter was Colonel Ross, the well-known sportsman; the other, Inspector Gregory, a man who was rapidly making his name in the English detective service."

At first I thought the animal description was of the colonel, but no, obviously it is of Inspector Gregory (not to be confused with Inspector Gregson, who is the bulldog). Lion is a little more generous a description than 'ferret'. Poor Lestrade.

"At the same time I recognize that the evidence is purely circumstantial, and that some new development may upset it.”

Holy shit! Someone is acknowledging that evidence is circumstantial! This is huge. Congratulations Inspector Gregory you win a sticker for achieving competency level 1. Woo!

“We have quite come to the conclusion that he wounded himself in his fall.” “My friend Dr. Watson made that suggestion to me as we came down. If so, it would tell against this man Simpson.”

Aw, Holmes giving Watson the credit for figuring that bit out, even though he'd already worked it out himself. That's sweet.

“Why should he take the horse out of the stable? If he wished to injure it why could he not do it there?"

Alright, interesting question. Who would want to steal the horse, rather than injure it. People who care about horses for reasons other than money. This again points to people in the stable, or people who work with horses (Also just... reasonable people, because hurting an animal like that is pretty horrible, but we're looking for plot relevant reasons). So someone from this stable, or someone from the nearby Lord Backwater's stable (where they conveniently have the second favourite, who presumably would win if Silver Blaze was out of the way).

"Above all, where could he, a stranger to the district, hide a horse, and such a horse as this?"

I have an idea about that. But I won't say because I think I am remembering things now, and I won't give it away.

Has anyone seen the film Charade? You should, it's pretty good. Also relevant here for reasons that I won't say because spoilers.

“We have found traces which show that a party of gypsies encamped on Monday night within a mile of the spot where the murder took place. On Tuesday they were gone. Now, presuming that there was some understanding between Simpson and these gypsies, might he not have been leading the horse to them when he was overtaken, and may they not have him now?”

...

And you were doing so well.

Apparently there's no connection to the other stables, although there has to be a connection to something somewhere. So far we have three places the horse might be: wandering the moor, with the travellers, or in the other stables. I suppose he could also be being hidden in the same stable as before for some sort of insurance grab. What was insurance like in Victorian times?

Wandering on the moor is a possibility, if he escaped his horsenappers, I'm pretty sure the travellers are, like I said before, a racist red herring to play on readers' prejudices, so that leaves one of the stables. Given that the stable Silver Blaze was taken from only has four horses max, it would be really difficult to hide a horse in it without someone noticing. That leaves the other stables. OR... a fifth option that we haven't been introduced to yet. Maybe he's pulling the carriage that they rolled up in? That'd be a funny ending.

👻Attempt 1 on Idia 👻 Pt 1

I discontinued this one because I kept dragging it on, like idk if I was trying to write a BOOK or a one shot.. Any who sorry its so long, but I hope you like it anyways. !Not Finished!

As you grew up you've always struggled with anxiety, your parents believed that to teach you a lesson they had to humiliate you in front of others. Whether it was friends, family, or strangers. Over time you got a sense of dread every time you went outside, and you became paranoid. You started to become accustomed to staying in since you made sure you never had to leave, door dash, video games, and cats. You've always wanted an animal but dogs require you to walk them outside, so you'd like to avoid that. So I bet you can guess how you felt when you were kidnapped by a cult, and wandered into a room full of people in black robes, you too were in one. The so-called teacher Introduced himself and apologized for his lateness. Before the doors behind you closed you saw a glimpse outside, it was unfamiliar to you, before he could walk off and finish you spoke. Yuu: Excuse me? Mr.Crowly: Hm? Yuu: Where am I? Mr.Crowly: Hahaha! The amnesia must still be in effect! You're at Night Raven College of Course! Yuu: Is this some kind of cult?.. You could see a vein popping out of his head. Mr.Crowly: No my dear.. As I said its a collegeYuu: Then what's up with the robes?. Mr.Crowly: I know it is unusual but it's uniform. Before you could say anything else he stormed off to the middle of the room. Mr.Crowly: Now then!! let's get our tardy student up here!

Your eyes widen as all eyes are on you, you freeze for a moment and start to move the moment Crowly signals you to come forward. Instinctively you move forward towards him, but not without consequence. You start to insult yourself. Yuu's mind: Look at how you breathe! You look ridiculous! Are you walking correctly? I bet you gonna fall and be a fool. Everyone's gonna laugh at you and Crowly will beat you for being an embarrassment. After what felt like forever you make it up to the mirror and a face appears. Yuu's mind: This is where I die? Are they gonna slit my throat, Id be better dead anyway. A tear rolls down your face as you squeeze your eyes shut. Mirror: Don't worry child we mean no harm, you won't die. You slowly open your eyes as you look into the mirror's non-existent eyes. Mirror: She has no soul, no shape. Though it would do well if she was put in Ignihyde. Mr.Crowly: W-well then. As long as we have an answer! Crowly finished his speech and soon enough everyone started rolling out. I saw a floating tablet that was soon introduced as the representative and dorm head. You wished you had one of those, then you'd really, never have to leave. But how is it floating? There are no wires or strings. You just follow along and soon enough you meet with a plump older lady Desk lady: Name? Yuu: Yuu L/N She taps away furiously at the keyboard. Desk Lady: Name not found, leave. Or get an administrator. Soon a little boy flies over. Desk lady: Why hello ortho, this young one was trying to get in, but her name isn't in the system. Yuu: Ima.. Late admission. Ortho took a hard look at you, and soon he started to scan your face? A blue light shines from his eyes done then up. Ortho: As she said late admission. Your computers are just slow. The lady huffed and tapped on her computer. Desk LAdy: Room 101 I just stared at Ortho, I've never seen anything like it! He was floating, He was in a very technological fashion, and he had blue hair and yellow eyes. Very unusual. Ortho: Yay! You're right next to me and my big brother's dorm! I'm sure we'll be great friends, but he's kind of shy, so just a heads up! Yuu was it? I'm ortho, although you probably already know that! He talked all the way there without you having to say a word. He waved at you as he opened his door, Video games could be heard from inside. You watched as the door closed and fumbled to open your own. It opened and you were met with a simple room, a full bed, no bed frame, and a desk with a shelf next to it, on the desk was a computer that looked a little outdated, but it should do. On the wall was a TV with a tiny shelf below it with a remote on it. Then to the right was a mini-fridge, microwave, and a mini portable stove with a pot. A closet, and what you'd assume to be the bathroom. All the bear necessities. So this should be fine. Crowley came by and he gave you your allowance provided by the school that you get once a month because as he said, "He's not low enough to leave a penniless teenager to just starve." He finished up and left this money would be helpful, but I don't know this currency. Yuu: This was gonna be a long week. A week passed and you had not gone to one class or even left your room. Consequently, a message was sent to Idia as a notice unknowingly. Ortho: As dorm head, you have to go! Idia: NOooO! I don't wanna interact with others! I'll run into people in the halls and end up in a conversation! Ortho: You don't even have to go that far, she lives right next door. Idia: Oh! I can have my tablet go over. Ortho: No! You have to go over yourself. I'll go with you. Idia: Really? Orthooo you're such a good brother! Idia and Ortho move out of the door, Idia moving like a ninja. Ortho is just being himself. Ortho knocks on the door but no answer. Idia can be seen peaking out from the doorway, he had momentarily retreated back to his room. Ortho waits patiently and knocks again a few minutes later. I

day in the life:

monday !!

at home; right now i’m just waiting on my mom to be done getting ready. my outfit is really cute today !! i have a pink shirt, navy skirt, white socks, and doc martins. my mom bought me a fidget ring yesterday and it honestly has helped a lot since then. i have costume design, acting 1, algebra, and voice & movement today. honestly my only class that will probably be an issue is voice and movement cause i’m wearing a skirt… i’m sure it’ll be okay. maybe i should bring pants lol. i also got a new phone case !! it’s so cute i love it, it has a shark on it !! something abt me is i love sharks with my entire heart. they are my favorite animal ever ever ever !! i’m gonna try to get a marine biology internship/college credit this summer. although i do want to be an actress my “fall back” is marine biology. i’ve always been interested in it and it’s always been my second choice right next to acting. my school opens at 7:20 am and classes start at 8:25 and i still haven’t left my house lol. it’s 7:55. but i’m also usually always almost late but i never am because i never he caught by the teachers on tardy patrol. lucky me !! i’ve been listening to katrina stuart non stop recently, her music rlly making me feel some type of way.

in the car; finally driving to school !! i just put on lipgloss which is hello kitty, so cute. found out my first rehearsal for districts is tmr during lunch & learn.. problem is is that i have to make up a science quiz. i’m going to try and do both. okay update: turns out i cannot do both because science isn’t open tuesday for lunch & learn. that’s kinda stupid tbh. but yk teachers gotta eat too ig. so i get to go to rehearsal !! last year i didn’t even have a chance at districts because i was new so i’m very happy it’s student directed for hs, and one my my friends is directing. i can admit, he can be a little mean so i’m a little scared to get yelled at if he gets pissed or smth but i think it will be okay.

costume design; now i’m in tech “costume design”. freshmen have to take this class but it’s rlly fun. and my man is in it. i’ve alr seen him looking at me once so yay. 2 of my bsfs are in this class too and we’re making little animal stuffed animals. nothing else is rlly happening but i’ll update if something interesting happens !!

lunch & learn; LOL i was doing things ALLLL of acting 1 so i couldn’t write, sry abt that. but now i’m helping my friend lexi with her districts number. she’s doing a group MT number to “what i was born to do” from bring it on the musical. it’s so good, everyone is so talented !! lexi is such a good singer, can u believe she isn’t in MT?? she’s in PT with me, i think that’s crazy. she deserves MT !! last year i gave the guy i liked a cookie everyday so i’m gonna try and do that again today, hopefully it doesn’t come off weird..

going home; i did not fill in anything for my last period but it was okayish. i did give him the cookie and he said “ur so sweet.” so that’s nice. but now i’m starting to think he’s not interested in me or smth like that.. or he thinks i’m annoying. i’m probably overreacting but he said “it’s fine” instead of “it’s okay”. it felt passive aggressive. but also that’s just how he talks irl so i have no clue. i’m probably overreacting tbh.

that was my school day !! i’ll post some more later 🤍🤍

I see a lot and I do mean A LOT of predictions about who is going to die (if anyone) in pt. 2 of Stranger Things. Most people seem to think it will be Eddie, new guy who is a fan fave and easy to kill off. Or Steve, our classic hero sacrificing himself one last time for the team, but I think people are missing some key points.

1. The writers of Stranger Things love to go for that emotional gut punch. Last season they waited until Joyce and Harper finally decided to go on a date before 'killing' of Hoper (and making Joyce be the one to literally pull the switch). If someone dies this time, who would give us an equal or even bigger gut punch?

2. Similar point to above, but the writers also like to pull the rug out on us. Make us think things are okay and then, surprise! It's actually the worst (just look at the Nancy seen that ended part 1). Taking this into account it's expected for them to kill one of the guys, it would be almost boring (you know after I finish crying about it for the next month). Who do we think is safe, who would we not expect to die?

3. Putting the pieces together I think it's more likely that the writers would kill off one our soft faves we assume is safe.

Who do I think is in most danger then? In no particular order Joyce, Robin, and Will.

Joyce: we have waited so long to dee her happy, to see her have her happy family, but also this whole time she has been coming into her own as a certified bad ass. She's off saving Hoper and now fighting monsters in a Russian jail. I could easily see the writers setting up Hoper to die, but then at the last second Joyce does something to save him, sacrificing herself instead. It would be the reverse of last season, which is interesting, and takes away the yay happy family feels the writers might be avoiding (we have yet to see yay happy family time in this freaking show). It could also explain the intense brother hug shown in the credits (though there are other things that explain that too). Emotional gut punch scale 7/10

Robin: let me start by I would fucking hate this. I would hate it so fucking much. However that scene where Robin is saying things may not go their way this time does really seem to be setting up a death and it would make sense from a writing stand point to have her be the one to not make it as an evil twisting of the knife. Again I would expect this to be a Steve is going to die, but then at the last second Robin saves him, dying in his place. This feels less likely to me, but it still merited a consideration. Robin is normally sassy and cool headed, but this season has been a little more back seat in her character personality. I don't know if the writers are planning to use that or if it's just kinda meh writing though. If it is intentional, it could be because they knew they would be killing her character and thus wanted to use her as a vehicle to forward plot instead if developing her own shit more. Not the most interesting story choice if so, but would be a huge gut punch 10/10 sadness.

Bring me to Will: More poor sad gay child. We know Will has some weird connection or something to the Upside down. Vecna would obviously be very interested in Will if he was still in town. So if this big fight is going down and somehow the whole crew is able to come more together/California crew gets in the fight finally, Will should play a larger role. We see Will talking about the monsters in the upside down to Mike in the trailer, he knows they won't stop no matter what, so what if Will finds a way to stop them himself? What if his strange connection to the upside down let's him act against them somehow? The hug seen could be Will choosing to sacrifice himself for his friends because he knows it's the only way to save them. Of course this would be so utterly heart breaking. He is the softest, sweetest boy, who has done no wrong and does not deserve more pain, but also him suffering is the only screen time he seems to get (which wtf?). From a writing stand point, taking someone we believe to be so safely tucked away from danger and putting them in a life threatening situation suddenly, is super interesting. Plus we would get to explore Will's weirdness with the upside down more. And it would be that surprise haha pain the writers like. So while this would be the most heart breaking possibly, I think it's a fairly viable option. 100/10 for gut punch pain though.
