“Shut up. I don’t believe you.” Sapphire chuckled nervously at the other, cheeks blushing pink. “I was so awkward and weird back then, and we never talked. We even sat next to each other in history class and we didn’t utter a peep to one another. How did you have a crush on me?” She felt flustered by their confession. Sapphire was known as the quiet girl who read a lot back in school. She barely dated and went ignored by most the guys her age. Her shyness and lack of confidence kept her from putting herself out there. It was those reasons that made the other’s little secret so surprising.

Finn laughed openly at her comment, the laugh dying to a smile at the sound of her nervous chuckle and her blush. He shrugged a little and grinned, “You just didn’t seem like the kind of girl who would give me the time of day. Let’s be real, I was trouble in school. It didn’t help that I skipped class more than I should’ve. But you think you were awkward and weird? I thought it was cute as hell.” Normally, Finn didn’t mind telling women exactly what he thought of them. Flirting was a common occurrence with him, but back then? He was a bit of an idiot, hanging out with the wrong crowd of people, and flirting with a cute girl was far down his list. “Scouts honor. I had the hugest crush on you.” He admitted again. “Promise I’m not that idiot anymore, though.”

Thanksgiving || Finn & Eve || 11/28/19

As they made their way toward the house, Finn looked to one side, seeing his mother standing there looking slightly nervous but content as she caught his eye and flashed him a smile. He’d invited her to come along with them knowing that a holiday without his father would only leave her at home alone with memories. In addition to that, he’d already missed the last year of holidays thanks to his previous job. He wasn’t going to do that to her again. Glancing to his other side was Eve, and he’d be lying if he said he wasn’t grateful for her influence in his life. Where plenty of people would have turned away after what he’d done, she had forgiven him, and beyond that, she had accepted him back in her life.

“Alright, let’s get this party started.” He commented before placing a kiss on her cheek.

Where most people would be nervous to spend the holiday with their significant other’s family, Finn was excited. He wasn’t generally a nervous sort of man, not in most situations. The chance to meet new people? Not nerve wrecking. The fact that they were Eve’s family? A little intimidating, but he’d had success with families in the past, despite his over-the-top personality.

Once the door opened and they were inside, Finn went right into introductions. Meeting her parents, and introducing them to his mother while thanking them for being gracious enough to allow her to come along. Finn couldn’t help but be proud when his mother immediately slipped into mom-mode and insisted on helping Eve’s mother with cooking. He had expected it. His mother wasn’t the sort of person to allow someone else to do all the work while she sat around and watched. It was something that, as he’d gotten older, he’d also adopted.

Following along behind the two mothers, he stopped in the kitchen and looked around at the obvious prep work that had already begun before their arrival. “Alright, I know you’ve got my mum in here helping out and all, but you’ve got an extra pair of hands with me. How can I help? I promise I can actually cook.” This was something that his own mother already knew, and Eve as well, and in previous celebrations he had been right in the kitchen along with his mother cooking any meal she prepared until he’d been kicked out, or called away for other things.

“I wanna help. Make use of these extra hands. I’m not beyond being used for muscle either.” He added.

I was thinking the same thing, it was all very dreamlike to be there. I am glad I did, though! I have never been to Canada.

It does! And while it does I am curious as to what made it surreal for you.

That’s awesome, bro, that you got to go to a place and enjoy it so much. Think you’ll ever go back?

The places I’ve been to? I think it’s more surreal because I’ve been to places I thought I’d only ever read about, or see in films? They’re places filled with history and it just seems odd that I’d be there at all, you know?

eve-boudreau‌:

Mmmmmmmmmmhm, you’re reeeeeeally not sure? Alright, I’ll keep ya’ guessing. Let’s just say it’ll be a pretty easy job to get it to stay around.

Sick of you? Never! I will add to this discussion and ask to go see it tomorrow night, maybe? I’m always down to be the arm candy to someone so handsome.

Hold up... maybe I’ve got it... I think that....... nope, I don’t know. Can’t figure it out. Pretty easy job? So in other words... food, it has to do with food? Maybe?

SOUNDS LIKE A FUCKING PLAN! Let’s do it! Aw, damn, keep those compliments comin. I love it. If you keep this up maybe there will be an added bonus prize at the end of it all.

BOYYYYY is that even a question?! Let’s meet up and get a bunch of tacos and come up with our game plan. AND I can tell you about my next project I’m working on! Some changes to my channel are coming and I’m excited, but still pretty anxious about it! 

That sounds like a fucking dream. Let’s do that. You know I’m not gonna turn down some good food just to plan. PLUS I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THIS PROJECT! Alright, clearly I need to catch up. We need to get working on all of this, and I need to know what’s going on.

luca-mikelson‌:

Nah they’re oddly find with that sort of thing. The state I was in a few months back… you won’t scare them. Come round any time you like.

That just sounds messed up, and honestly, no kid should be fine with that kind of thing, but... I’d like to see you guys so, if it’s good, I’ll stop by in the next couple of days.

thereynasantos‌:

Okay. As long as you have somewhere you can just relax for a little while. Maybe I’ll actually get to see you? 

I think I do. Yes, you’ll actually get to see me, and that’s a promise. You’re kinda really fuckin stuck with me.

luciemoreau‌:

Boot season is back and so am I! What’s everyone’s favorite fall activity? It’s a toss up between haunted houses and pumpkin patches for me.

OKAY! Let’s talk about the fact that YOU. AND. I. Need to hit up some fucking haunted houses. I have nothing on. Free time like whoa. Let’s hit this shit up and have a good time. We’ll look up the best ones around the road and make a damn checklist of the top few. Whatddaya say @luciemoreau​?

Smiley days in Scotland! Don’t ask, just accept and let the contagion spread ‘cause I’m sure everyone can use one every once in a while. I know I’ve been hard-pressed to find one the past while, but things are looking up.

With that being said, I’m back in Edinburgh safe and sound. I’ve spent a lot of time bouncing from here to Los Angeles for some much needed family time and have definitely fallen off the radar, but I’m stuck like glue now! Can a girl get some socializing on and get back to some regularly scheduled normalcy? Thaaaaaaaaanks.

I have no idea what is bringing the smiles and all, but it looks good on you. Keep it up. I insist. If they don’t stay, then I’ll just have to find a way to make the smiles stay.

Also, aren’t you sick of socializing with me yet? No? Okay. In that case, I suggest that we discuss the fact that I really want to see this Joker movie, and I need a date.

cristian-rosasco‌:

I do have to say that Canada has certainly been leaving a wonderful impression thus far. I was lucky enough to be invited to a Canadian colleague’s Thanksgiving dinner at his cottage in British Columbia, and it has been nothing but a stunning experience. Consider me swayed, North America.

Has anyone else found themselves in a place that seems almost surreal?

It looks like you’re living the dream, bro. That shit looks straight out of a painting, or something.

I don’t know that I’ve found myself in places that seem surreal when it comes to location for the look of it. I’ve found myself in places that seem surreal for other reasons? I don’t know if that makes sense.

It was hard to watch Finn shoulder the entire responsibility of what it was he had done. He was asked to do things, forced to considering the role he had to play despite the discomfort it may have brought, and he genuinely thought it was his own problem. He had been in it for a while, that much had been clear without him having to tell Eve exactly how long he had been dealing with orders, and expectations, and just things that a regular day-to-day person shouldn’t have had to worry about. As sad as Eve was, as confused and as muddled as her thoughts were about the entire situation, there was also something blaringly obvious in her mind that she didn’t have any hesitation in accepting.

“No.” It was a simple word, easy to say all things considered. Eve’s hand clutched at nothing when Finn retracted his touch, eventually curling into fists that gripped the bottom of the top she was wearing and she shook her head. “No, I don’t want you to go, and I don’t want you thinking that because it was just you in this that it has to be just you to figure it all out.” It was a lot, Eve would admit that, it was a lot to wrap her head around and grasp, a lot to manage and see where she fit into it all, but she’d be damned if she didn’t at least try. Why? It was a valid question, why would she bother? It was simple, really, but she was sure of it as she, despite the heaviness in her chest making it difficult, sent a smile in Finn’s direction. The small space in between them on the couch was closed, knees bumping and thighs touching when she reached out again to take Finn’s hand this time. Eve needed him to know that it didn’t need to be him on his own anymore, that she was more than ready and more than willing to take some of the weight he had on his shoulders and help him dispose of it. 

“Where do we go from here? What can I do to help you?”

Her response took a moment to register with him. Finn wasn’t sure if this was because he’d taken a good beating, or if it was because he felt like maybe he was dreaming and didn’t deserve it. Whatever the reason, what she said took a moment before it pierced through him and he realized the weight of what she was saying to him. Eve was telling him that she wasn’t going to leave him to handle all of this alone. She wasn’t turning her back on him despite what he’d done to her, and despite what he had done in general. He was acutely aware of the fact that he didn’t deserve it, for her to stand by his side in this moment, but he couldn’t help but feel a sense of relief.

When her hand reached for his, whatever last bit of tension in his body that had remained completely evaporated. Finn swallowed hard as he considered the answers to her questions, looking at their hands clasped together. “Well... for starters, I need somewhere to stay. I don’t have my apartment in Chicago, and even if I did I couldn’t go back now. I don’t want to go back. And... since you’re not telling me to go, honestly, I’m not too proud to say that I just want to be with you. You have this way of making me feel like it’s all going to be fine. You make me forget all the other shit.”

His eyes lifted to her face. “I’ll start looking at options for a job. I have an idea, but I’d have to get in touch with my friend in LA, see if it’s something he can help me with. I’ll figure something out. Once I know where I can get a job, I’ll find a place to live. Just... I don’t want to impose on your space. I have friends who could help me with a place to stay.”

Fever || Sept. 8th

keniabrathwaite‌:

Okay, yeah.. send your number, cuz this is all crazy overwhelming. I gotta do that every single time before I drive? I.. I’m gonna need you to show me because I really don’t know what you are talking about. I can pay you? I mean I don’t have like a lot of cash about but maybe I can send you home with a home made meal too?

Can’t I just call them to come fix it? What… are treads? Wait what? Rotate them? You are messing with me… they always rotate…

Yeah, sure, I’ll send it right now. You don’t need to check every time you drive. Just do it every once in a while, and yeah, I can show you how to do all that stuff. You don’t need to pay me anything. I’ll show you because it’s just something that you should know. I don’t need payment.

I mean, you could, but do you really wanna be stranded on the side of the road with a flat tire all alone if you can pop your spare on for yourself? It’s safer if you know. Alright, I’m just gonna come and show you a some basic things, and explain it all to you.

[finn-odell]

jadistaylor‌:

Yeah, same here. I tend to piss people off quite a bit. That’s so true. I’d rather be honest than play some sort of game you know? Like, I don’t have a shit load of time to waste on pretending to be something I’m not. Oh shit, sorry, my name is Jadis. Well thank you. It was for said failed date. 

Then we should get along just fine. Don’t worry, I won’t get pissed off at your honesty, even if it’s to tell me I’m an asshole. But I definitely know where you’re coming from. I have no time to waste pretending. Especially now. Alright, then, nice to meet you, Jadis. Oh shit, yeah. Well, fuck that date anyway. Honestly? I didn’t do a whole lot of dating for a while, and honestly, just going on random dates? I don’t envy you. So, tell me a bit about yourself, what do you do?

[finn-odell]

luca-mikelson‌:

Anyone who knows you could have told you that was a mistake. Honesty being your thing and all that. I really hope you do take some time for yourself though. 

You’re probably right about that but hey... I had to give it a shot. I would’ve spend my whole life wondering about it if I didn’t give it a go. I didn’t want to regret not taking an opportunity. Now I know, and in the end I won’t live wondering what if. I’m taking a little time, don’t worry. If you’re up for it, when I’ve healed up a little more so that I won’t scare your kids, I’d like to come and spend a little time with all of you.

thereynasantos‌:

You know I have a spare room, right? I did tell you if you ever needed to get away you could use it.

I know, and thank you. I promise I’ll let you know if I need the room. I think right now, I’ll be okay. Eve isn’t likely to give me the boot just yet. I’m a lucky man.
