100 Degrees

Ever since she started, Sera knew the rumors about her and their boss. She was highly favored by him, but while many knew it was her work ethic, others assumed she was sleeping her way to the top. It couldn’t be further from the truth.

“Satoru,” she huffed. “He sure doesn’t look like he trusts you. In fact it looks like he trusts you as far as he can throw you.”

Satoru, one of the boss’ closest friends and someone he considered family on occasion rolled his eyes behind his Dolce & Gabbana sunglasses before placing his ass on the corner of Sera’s desk. He folded his arms and looked towards the other end of the floor where the foreboding door stood.

“Well, whether that’s true or not, he wants to see you so get your pretty ass over there.”

Sera groaned inwardly before standing and fixing her skirt. Glaring at Satoru, she pointed a manicured finger at him. “Staring at an employee’s ass will get you an HR complaint so fucking fast.”

“What’s HR?”

The Return

After reading a friend's short snippet, I somehow gained the motivation to return and write again.

I'm back and in another fandom.

Please look forward to it.

Edited to add another fandom <3

Welcome!

Hi there!

I made this blog to showcase snippets of my writing. The writing will be a mix of FFXIV, My Hero Academia and Jujutsu Kaisen. I haven't written anything in three years, so it's time to get back into it <3

Here's my official AO3 which is where I will also post my works:

Crossing A Line

Caroline stared as his back as he retreated up the stairs of the hotel lobby. He was annoyed with her again today. Lately, it seemed the tension between them had been thick and hard to cut. She had been a little stressed working on a new movie and for the last couple of days, she had been focused on making sure the intimate scene needed to be retaken as little as possible.

Closing her eyes, she bit down on her lip as she tried to recall anything that could have made his behavior change. Everything seemed to have started when she started filming that scene. Sometimes she would look over during break and his body radiated anger and aggravation. His jaw would be tense and his eyes hooded.

She opened her mouth and found it dry. If she didn't do something quick, he would be out of her sight.

"Estinien, wait. Please."

The taller man stopped his ascent and turned his head over his shoulder to look at her. He could see her fidgeting with her hands before she placed them behind her back to hide them. His chest tightened and he had to get away from her.

"Miss Caroline, you should rest."

The formal tone was like a knife to the heart for her and she swallowed a lump in her throat before attempting to speak again.

"Have I done something to upset you? Do you-" she paused, tears forming in her eyes as her mouth moved again. "Do you not want to be my bodyguard anymore?"

At the sight of her unshed tears, his feet moved against his better judgment. With long strides, he stood before her in mere seconds and gently tilted her chin upwards.

"I didn't say that," he said, thickly. "Things are complicated now. There are lines in the sand that shouldn't be crossed."

Staring into his eyes, she felt the words on the tip of her tongue and the heat began to rise in her face. She didn't want to lose him. She loved him. Before she could filter everything in her head, she asked, "What if I asked you to cross them for me?"

Hearts on Fire

"Caroline, I think you should take a break. In fact, we all do."

The smaller woman sighed inwardly at the very notion. Of course they saved the First and were finally transported back to their home world, but the idea of rest felt strange to her. How could she rest when there was still so much to do? 

After much convincing, it happened. They had gone to Costa del Sol.

The Moonfire Faire brought all kinds of races together for one event that made everyone forget about life for a couple of days. Caroline’s smile was contagious as she floated through the crowd dancing with the young children. They were delighted to see their beloved Warrior of Light enjoying the festivities instead of holding the weight of the world on her shoulders.

While the Scions enjoyed themselves by the beachside for once, Caroline finally decided to join in and try to have fun. The only one that seemed not to be enjoying themselves was the newest Scion. Ser Estinien Wyrmblood. 

A man she had a lot of history with. 

History beginning with their childhood. 

Taking in his silver hair and piercing gaze, she cleared her throat and that gaze landed on her.

Nemuri, trying to get answers: so, Shouta... do you have a crush?

Shouta, without looking up from his book: the only crush I have is crushing anxiety
