I’ve been toying and have seen a couple of fanfics with Smoke x Annie x Stack, specifically with Stack being interested in Annie first. Y’all think I should try my hand in writing when the twins first met Annie?

How much y’all wanna bet that Sammie has a song named after his cousins and all the people who protected him? I can picture one of his song being named The Delta Blues or Delta Slim’s Blues or even The Conjure Song or The Conjure Woman’s song for Annie?

A New Face in the Delta: A Stack and Annie Story

Pairing: Stack/ Annie

Summary:

There’s a new face in the Delta and Stack thinks he should make himself known.

The twins vividly remember the first time they met Annie. It was a couple of weeks after they got back from the war. They were staying in between Uncle Jed’s and Mary’s mother’s house. This week it was Mary’s mother and she sent both boys into town to pick up a couple of things from the Chow’s market. Stack was the first to notice her. Clarksdale was a small community so it wasn’t nothing that word spread around about two new arrivals from Louisiana. Annie was inspecting a green bell pepper when she caught Stack staring at her and their eyes locked. He couldn’t look away. Her eyes, that was the first thing Stack noticed: there was something about the way her they didn’t seem fearful like most people’s when they see he and his brother, they were firm, powerful like she didn’t take no mess, they were kind too. Stack let his eyes leave hers and without shame he let them roam the rest of her. She has smooth, pretty dark skin that he bet smelled like cocoa butter and full lips that looked soft. She was wearing a pair of blue chandelier earrings and a stack of beaded necklaces the same color. She wore a short sleeved dark blue dress with a low collar that showed a healthy amount of pillowy looking cleavage that he would love to lay his head on.

“You gone speak or just keep staring at me.”

Annie’s body was fully facing Stack now only the produce stand between them. She had a basket in her right hand and her left hand was on her hip. Those beautiful, kind eyes Stack had been admiring were now accompanied by a raised eyebrow and a look of slight irritation. For the first time in his life, Stack was rendered speechless. Usually, it was Smoke who was the less talkative of the two of them.

“Well.” Annie asked with pursed lips.

Stack finally spoke and put on her signature charm.

“I’m sorry, baby. I couldn’t help myself. I haven’t seen your gorgeous face ‘round here before,” he grinned at her. He made his way around the stand of produce separating them.

“Elias Moore, ma’am.”

Stack gave Annie one of his signature dimpled smiles and offered his hand. Annie didn’t take it but she did return his big smile with a half one.

“I know who you are. You and your brother have quite the reputation. Are you the one they call Smoke or are you Stack?”

“I’m Stack, ma’am,” he answered with a bit of a chuckle.

“Ma’am huh, I reckon we the same age. The only ma’am is my grandmama and she ain’t here now.”

Stack sucked his teeth and finally put his unshaken hand down.

“Alright, so what can I call you?”

“Annie.”

“Nice to meet you, Annie. How you enjoying the Delta so far?”

“Fine so far, can’t say I’ve been here long enough to form an opinion.”

“Well, if you ever need an escort around town, my brother and I would be happy to show you. I promise we ain’t as bad as people say.” Stack reached for Annie’s right hand, the one with the basket, and attempted to kiss it.

She pulled it back before he had the chance, but she didn’t seem angry. She seemed more amused than anything.

“I’ll do that. It was nice meeting you, Stack.”

“Likewise, I hope we see each other real soon, Annie.”

Annie took the bell pepper she’d been holding and made her way to the register. Stack watched her walk away and his eyes stayed on her until she left the market. He licked his lips.

“Who’s that?” Smoke came up behind him with their groceries in hand. He now along with his brother was watching Annie walk away.

“A new face in the Delta.”

Stack didn’t take notice, but his twin was now staring at Annie with the same lustful eyes.
