I'm trying to sleep but ugh this game is plaguing me [Affectionate]
I'm just thinking abt the fanfic-ability of Intertwine. Bc like. Every instance you write, every change in the world, every individual story, au/canon divergence or a story that embraces the story's canon and original story lines, all are possible lives they could have lived/might live. Anything is possible when you have an eternity of lifetimes together. Yeah, maybe they all follow similar lives for a while, maybe minor changes set them on different paths. But imagine au fics, those could absolutely be worked into that. There could be a whole MULTIVERSE of worlds, all in which MC and Van are destined to meet at some point or another. Maybe it isn't one timeline, maybe its just the concept. Whatever the fuck you want, go ham. Write corny fanfic. They're Intertwined afterall.

i plateaued and now idk what to do. if you have any advice that would be great ty <333
i get u girllll (not assuming ur gender, just let me vibe bc ur anon)
genuinely when i plat i assume that someone is pouring oil into my f00d or replacing ingredients. (im delulu)
i get this question a lot, idk why bc i struggle with this so bad LOL
anyways lets talk about reasons why ur metabolism could be slowing down:
-you have too much of the same f00ds/theres no balance in nutritional value. balancing ur d1et between fruits & veg, getting protein, etc is hard especially in this economy LOL and im not saying you have to have the exact recommended percentages of protein or dairy or grains for every plate u have, i just noticed that ill try to give myself proper protein and ill prioritize it and then ill forget abt vegetables. (theres only sm f00d categories you can fit into a low c4loric intake lmao) so when i notice im maintaining, i start switching it up. even if its still the same f00d groups, i mix and match. spicy chicken and carrots today, fruit salad and greek yogurt tmrw, etc.
-ik damn well most of us do NOT drink enough water even though we know we should. every time u check ur phone, take a sip of water. or anything u do a lot, take a sip. if you say a phrase a lot, take a sip everytime. its a silly little game but it’ll help. eventually you will get used to drinking all ur daily water and u can eliminate water intake from ur list of reasons why ur maintaining.
-working out too much you could be doing overworking urself if cardio is ur thing lol. it doesnt seem to make sense but i was told to either stop w0rking out if i do it, or to start to w0rk out if i don’t normally do it & ive done it both ways and it has worked out. its the same as metab days (which you probably alr know abt, i am not gonna be mentioning that here because thats obv the #1 thing people here do to stop plate4us.) anyways .. its the same as metab (kinda) youre switching things up. our bodies adjust to literally everything we do its nature. try this one out lmk how it goes
the most obvious reason ur plateauing: slow metabolism its gonna slow down if youre r3stricing, thats just how it is man. i know a lot of people have their metabolism days so that their body is tricked and they can continue low int4ke. its also good for holdiays, bdays, dates, days where you need to e@t infront of people. it doesnt have to be a specific day necessarily. other ways to help your metabolism is to not f4st, have spicy foods, e@t at more regular times, drink all your necessary water THROUGHOUT THE DAYYY not just all at once to hit your goal.
i am answering late, hopefully youre out of your plat by now 🩷🩷

sbi x reader part 8
A few days later, Wilbur reached out to me. I felt my phone buzz and when I checked it, I saw the following message:
W: hey! how r u?
I smiled as I responded.
O: im good, hbu?
The answer was instantaneous.
W: ive been good! u wanna come over to our house for dinner tmrw? we miss u!!
Dinner. Usually, I had to get food made for my parents. But, if I timed it right, I could feed them then sneak out?
O: what time were you thinking?
W: probs around six? if I wanna change it tho that's fine idc
O: any chance we could do seven, or is that too late?
W: great! that totally works!! looking forward to it!!
O: loved " great! that totally works!! looking forward to it!!"
That have me enough time to get food to my parents by six, then be at the Craft's house by seven. Call it stupid or selfish for choosing the villains, but at least they made me feel safe. I went to bed that night with a smile on my face for the first time in a while.
---
I got through the next day happier than normal, having something to look forward to. By early evening, food was done and two plates were made up. It wasn't suspicious that I didn't have a plate, I don't usually get one. My parents prefer to eat alone.
At six o'clock, I set their plates on the table, ran upstairs, and slipped out the window. My heart was pounding in my chest, terrified of the punishment I was risking by leaving. It was worth it though, I reminded myself. I was going to get to spend time with an amazing family, and I was going to have fun, and it was going to be awesome.
I made it to the Craft house by 6:30, knocking on the door. Tommy opened it, grinning. "THE WOMAN HAS ARRIVED! Come in, come in," he beckoned me inside. I smiled as he led me to the table where I sat, and Phil brought a plate over and they all sat around the table.
Dinner was fun. Lots of jokes, lots of smiling. No alcohol in sight. I was getting comfortable with the family. Techno suggested game night, then wiped the floor with us in Scattergories. After, Tommy insisted on Twister, which led to Phil calling colors and Wilbur just trying to get in Tommy's way as much as possible. I fell over second, after Tommy, because Wilbur had tripped him and I laughed so hard I fell. Phil then offered up Clue, which suprisingly, I won.
As all good things must come to an end, it was getting to the time I needed to get back home. Finally, I called it.
"Ok, I think it's time for me to go home."
" Awwww, one more game? "
"I'm sorry Wil, I have to go."
Phil stepped in. "Do you need a ride?"
" Yeah, actually, that would be awesome. "
"Ok, I'll take you home. Boys, you're on cleanup duty."
Tommy whined, but Tommy always whined so everyone ignored him.
---
The ride home was nice, I chatted quietly with Phil the whole way home. I learned about his love for gardening, and he told some stories about the boys that almost had me in tears I was laughing so hard. As relaxed as I had felt the whole evening, I couldn't shake the underlying fear that gripped me the whole time. What if my parents found out I was gone? What if something happens with the Crafts, and they decide they don't want me anymore? Even though I've lived with nobody in my corner for so long, it would be so much more painful now that I know what it's like to have people who I feel safe around. As we neared my house, I tentatively spoke.
"Is there any chance you could drop me off around the corner? My parents kind of don't know I went out." I ducked my head as I spoke, not sure if how he would react. Would he be mad? Hate that I was lying to my family?
"Why didn't you tell them?"
" Um, they can just be a little strict sometimes, but I really wanted to come to dinner. I swear, I don't usually do stuff like that. "
"What would happen if they caught you?"
"They probably wouldn't be happy with me. I'd just get in trouble."
" Your shirt slipped during twister."
I froze. He silently pulled over and turned to face me.
"Why is your stomach so bruised?"
I open my mouth, then close it. "I'm clumsy?"
He raised an eyebrow. "Did you know that I used to be an emergency foster placement care parent? I've seen after effects of some bad homes."
I blink, then duck my head. "I have it under control."
He's quiet for a moment, then: "We can't help you if you don't let us."
My eyes fill with tears at the gesture, because not only was this the first time anyone has offered to help me, but Phil is offering his help after I've been nothing but a pain, spending days in his house recovering, eating his food, crashing his family game nights.
"I understand it feels like a really big thing, but honestly, any paperwork is worth it. We have the money and the resources, and our family loves you. You would be safe. "
I debated it. I really did. I looked up and met his eyes.
"What if I just promise to call you if it gets too bad? "
"I don't want you to have to get to the point of too bad. Also, I don't know if you can fairly identify 'too bad'."
"I called someone that night in the snow."
"Only after you had been out there for multiple hours."
I stay quiet at that. He has a point.
"Look, just call me if you need, okay? Any of us, anywhere, anytime. We can help you."
I nod.
"And I mean that. Even if your parents catch you sneaking back in tonight, or something happens at one in the morning, or you're two cities over, call us. Ok?"
" Okay. Thank you Phil. "
"Of course. Anytime."
I get out of the car. He gives me a hug. I turn, and walk towards the house that is the source of all my darkest fears.

picked up some ❄️ last night and hung with squad. watched scary movies and cackled together all night. ended up staying over with Elliott and watching lilo and stitch together in bed. we had v vulnerable convo after sex about new fantasies and things to explore in the bedroom together, how life is going for us in general, how we've both been feeling low and mentally off our game lately, how we crave community and new and exciting adventures in our daily lives. it was very tender and endearing. im glad we can talk the way we do. we told each other new childhood stories. I opened up about my sadness for the holidays and my birthday tmrw and he rubbed my back while I talked. he gave me the tightest hug after and told me we'll plan a friends day for Christmas. Said that I should stay the night on the 24th and spend time with everyone who's still home. hes good to me, but he's not always good to himself, and that hurts us both sometimes. Its the same with me. we're both a bit (a big bit) of a work in progress, but still our friendship continues to grow. our connection is deeply important to us both, especially at this time of our lives. I'm very grateful for him. he told me that his life here in Maine would look very different if I wasn't here that I really help him feel more at home and cared for at a time in his life where he's struggling to feel connected to the people who love him. he thanked me and reiterated that he's got my back too. we are planning to rent out a pottery studio together so he can teach me how to work with clay, and he can get back into his artistic grind, and we also are planning some volunteer days at a soup kitchen downtown. we both have been struggling w execution lately, so I said why not try it together? I told him my biggest hurdle tends to be going it alone, not that I can't, just that it feels scary and also sad to not have anyone around to share new things with. he understood. he was excited and appreciative for the suggestion. he just dropped me off at home, but he'll pick me up in the am to make breakfast and start the day with squad. we're gonna venture to a new lighthouse as a lil unit, which makes my heart v full. I love lighthouses. I've seen all the landlocked ones in this area already, so this will be another added to the list. then we're squading back up at the boys house, drinking/partying, playing the new we are not really strangers deck I bought, probably some other card games, and dancing all night. ru's meeting us at squad house after work, and I'm bringing my polaroids, so I can add new ones to my fridge. I think this time I'll let some other people take some pictures, so I can be in them too haha. I want to remember this birthday. I always let them go by so fast. I don't want to think about them. I tell myself I hate celebrating, but fuck I'm 25 now. I want this one to feel good and warm, and I want tangible proof of the love I witness with the people in my life this time around. I'm v grateful to be spending it with all of them. I do wish deeply that cherise and sunmi could be here, but I'll see them again soon. Makes my heart ache to not be near them. It would be so nice if Sam could come down from Acadia too, but I'm sure I'll see them all again soon. For now, I'll make the best of what I've got, and cherish the day with my friends that can be here. The emotional whiplash will be heavy tmrw, I know this. I warned squad I'll probably be emotional and moody throughout the day, but I'm very appreciative of them being there with me anyways, just witnessing and experiencing it with me. allowing me to grieve and celebrate in the ways that come up. Here's to making it another year I didn't think possible. To being as sad and grateful as I've ever been. To having all the freedom I've ever dreamed of in the palm of my hands, and simultaneously the most roadblocks right in front of me. To forging on anyway. To love, to love, to love.

its like 12 am and i have class at 6 tmrw but can we talk abt having kazuha in you lap and just,, being with him??? like, ok reader gets all the support and comfort but what abt him
"you've been working hard."
"on the contrary," kazuha chuckles tiredly as he stares at your intertwined hands, "i don't think i've been working hard enough."
you frown while he plays with your fingers. kazuha came to your apartment a few hours ago looking ran through; his hair barely in it's usual ponytail, his glasses looked about ready to slip off his face, and he had dark circles under his eyes. kazuha's not exactly picky about his appearance, but he normally cares enough to not go out looking so disheveled. rather than entertain his attempts at conversation, you tugged him into your room and forced him to lay down. his protests stopped after three minutes.
finals week is rough -- everyone knows that. you've barely been getting by yourself what with the exams that start as early as 8 am and end as late as 8 pm almost every day. you're fortunate enough to not have any papers to write, but the projects, essays, and multiple choice are kicking you from every direction. kazuha isn't much better off than you are, especially with his courses being literature heavy; your boyfriend has to slave over paper after paper, each one with a high page minimum. you haven't been able to see him much these days because of your busy schedule. it didn't bother you at first, but seeing him so haggard made your insides twist.
kazuha has a terrible habit of forgetting that he has needs whenever he's doing something important. this isn't the first time you've seen him so worn by exams, but this is the first time it's been so bad.
after he woke up from his forced nap, he slunk into the living room and sat beside you with a muted yawn, dropping his head on your shoulder. you pulled him into your lap and he didn't argue at all, absorbing as much of your warmth as he could get. he's been idly toying with your hands for a while now, probably drifting in and out of sleep on your lap. it'd be romantic if you weren't so worried.
"kazuha, when was the last time you slept for more than six hours?" you ask, curling your fingers over his.
he hums in thought but doesn't answer.
"kazuha..."
"i'm alright," he lies. he brings the back of your hand to his lips and holds it there for a moment. "i did need that nap, though. thank you."
you glare up at him but he doesn't meet your eyes. he's hiding something from you. "you're not telling me something." you say, pulling your hand away. "you know you can talk to me, right?"
kazuha nods. his eyes look heavy. "i know." he glances at you for a second before sighing. "you know i hold myself to a high standard. it's nothing anybody forced me to do, i... can't afford to do poorly when i'm capable of doing so much better. so as long as i'm still on my feet, i--"
you cut him off with a sharp shake of your head. he's told you this once before, but that was a completely different situation; you'd found out that he was an english double major and maintained his position as the top student in both departments. it was admirable at the time, but now that you know how far he's willing to go with these thoughts, you can't let him think that all the time. you shudder to think what would become of him if he didn't have you to force him to sleep.
"and what happens when you literally can't be on your feet, kazuha?" you ask, your voice tight. you're not sure why you suddenly feel like crying on his behalf, but you swallow it back. "what then?"
kazuha doesn't answer. you continue.
"one of your most admirable qualities is your diligence." you put a hand on his face, smiling weakly when he leans into your touch. "but it's also one of your worst."
"would you elaborate for me, dove?" he asks, closing his eyes.
"kazuha, your body can only handle so much and your diligence can only take you so far. all your efforts will be for nothing if you fall apart." you brush your thumb over his cheek. "what would you have done if you crashed?"
kazuha rests his hand on top of yours and opens his eyes, his brows furrowing. "i wouldn't have. i know my limits."
"do you?" your smile drops. "then why did you come in here looking like death? if you know your limits the way you think you do, you wouldn't be like this." you flinch at your tone. you don't like scolding anybody, especially your boyfriend, but he's stubborn when he wants to be. it might take some pushing for him to see things your way. "if i hadn't made you sleep, what would you have done then? would you keep working until you passed out?"
kazuha's silence bothers you, but he does speak eventually. "it's... not an easy habit to break." he admits. you remain silent as he thinks things over. it's on him to work out a solution now that the problem has been brought to light. you never want to force kazuha in the direction you want him to go in; it's completely up to him if he wants to or not. then, finally: "would it make you happy if you monitored my studying?"
it'd be nice to keep an eye on him, but you're not responsible for him. "don't tell me what you think i want to hear." you chide gently. you tap his cheek with a finger. "what do you think you should do?"
"if you want the truth, i... don't know. if i slow down, i'll be putting my academics at risk; if i don't take my time, however, i'll be putting my health at risk, and," he almost looks sad when he meets your eyes, "i fear i'd be upsetting you even more. that won't do either."
always so selfless. kazuha's so mindful of others -- of you -- that he literally can't make any moves without considering how self-care will affect those around him. this was a new battle for him to fight in addition to the ones he's already got going on; it was going to take a lot of time for this one to come to an end.
you sigh and lean up to kiss him slowly, drinking in kazuha's murmur of appreciation. "you don't have to know." you whisper. "it's fine. just remember that your health and well-being is important. and if you can't remember, then i'll do it for you. how does that sound?"
kazuha's answer comes in the form of another kiss. "i suppose a few more texts from you wouldn't hurt." he chuckles when you swat at his arm playfully. "thank you for caring so much about me. you really are my angel, aren't you?"
your cheeks warm. "don't thank me for loving you." you mutter. "shouldn't you get some more sleep?"
at that, kazuha stands and grabs your hand. "maybe i should," he says, pulling you to your feet, "but i'd love it if you came with me."
"alright, then." you follow him into your room and hug him close when he moves into your arms. it's almost magnetic the way you two find each other every time. you brush your fingers through his hair. "you gonna sleep a little longer this time?"
kazuha squeezes your waist. "i think i'd be here for an eternity since you're here with me."
"sap."
"i always am."

He’s Lost - Bakugou Katsuki - Part 3
Bakugou x f!reader
Warnings: fluff, sexual mentions, smut, 18+, daddy kink, fingering (fisting?), f!receiving, alcohol, cursing, LONG WRITING PIECE, Bakusquad a teensy wheensy bit ooc, BAKUGOU BEING A BIG ASS SIMP
BAKUGOU’S MASTERLIST
Tumblr media
Summary: After the classroom moment, Katsuki’s been doing everything he can to get you back. You’ve both come to terms as friends who are mutually pining for one another, but how long will it take to finally be found by one another?
A/N: Y’all I just have to keep saying thank you to all of you. The love and support is incredible and I never expected my one shot to be so likeable. Anyways, this piece is what will bring the whole story together. Just HELLA fluff. Hope you enjoy!
A/N: If you guys are curious as to what I put for Y/N’s quirk, I’ve titled it Phoenix. She has all the abilities of a Phoenix, like fire powers, regeneration, and flight ability with beautiful wings of fire that can come out on command. Honestly, her quirk isn’t really a big deal in the story but if you wanted to know, there you go.
Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4
“YOU DID WHAT?!”
“I fucked her in the classroom,” Bakugou so calmly said while taking a sip from his water bottle.
Kirishima felt like he was gonna faint. He told his friend to talk to her so they could make up. He didn’t expect him to dick her down.
“Wow Kacchan, didn’t know you were an exhibitionist,” The electric blonde said while nudging Bakugou in the arm with his elbow.
“I’m not......well-“
“Katsuki” Kirishima said with a warning tone because he did NOT want to hear about his friend’s kinks.
“Right. Anyway, it was fine. No one was there...actually why weren’t you guys there? We all had class you idiots.” Bakugou asked.
“Mr. Aizawa told us the day before that we were going to meet up in gym gamma for an all day training sesh. So we were all shocked when one of our best fighters didn’t show.” Kirishima explained.
“Well nobody told me we were having an all day session.” Bakugou complained.
The group then raised their phones showing the texts sent to the group chat the boys of the Bakusquad shared.
8:47 a.m.
🦈 : Bakugou, tmr is all day training in the gym. Make sure you’re there
11:21 a.m.
🕷: You gonna be in the gym wit us tmrw Bakugou?
2:10 a.m.
⚡️: Sooo we’ll see u in the gym tmr Kacchan?
After some silence and Bakugou’s soft “oh,” Bakugou asked another question. “Well why wasnt Y/N there then?”
“Just like you, the girl wasn’t in class the day before so she didn’t know. She spent the day interning with Hawks.” Sero stated while taking a break from his bag of chips.
‘Hawks huh? Guess it made sense. You both had bird-like quirks, so you guys go well together’ The blonde thought to himself.
“But enough of why you weren’t there, tell us what happened with Y/N,” Sero added on.
“The hell? Why are you so invested in how I fucked her?” Bakugou said with attitude.
“Not that man,” Kirishima intervened, “we wanna know what happened after.”
“We also wanna know which desk you fucked on so we could avoid the cum splatter.” Kaminari said, earning a wack to the back of his head from Sero.
“Well I thought we were gonna make up and get back together,” Bakugou started and the trio of boys stared right at him as if he was going to open some buried treasure.
“But I guess she’s not ready for the relationship again. At least not yet. She said she wanted some time and then she’ll come back to me. All I gotta do is wait.” Bakugou said while getting comfortable in his spot on the common room couch.
“Says who?” Kaminari added.
“ ‘scuse me?” Bakugou asked.
“Who says all you gotta do is wait?” Bakugou looked at his idiotic friend.
“She did, Dunce Face.”
“Well you could wait for her, but if I was you, I’d still treat her like my girlfriend.” The electric blonde stated.
“Huh?” The entire group asked.
“Bakugou look. Give Y/N the time she wants, but you could still treat her like your girlfriend. It’ll remind her of the times you had and it’l-“
“I’m gonna stop you right there Kaminari.”
As the group turned towards the doorway, they saw Y/N. She seemed to have gotten back from some extra training considering she was still wearing gym attire and her duffel bag was still on her shoulder.
“Hey Y/N, just got back from the gym?” Kirishima kindly started up a conversation with the girl.
“Yeah. Had to take a shower there too to save some time. I’m heading back out to go on a late night patrol with Hawks after I drop off my bag, but I can spend 2 minutes to explain something to you, dorks.” You started walking towards the group, more specifically behind Bakugou’s seat.
“I’m gonna make this real simple. Katsuki and I don’t need a grand plan to get back together. We just need some time,” when you finally made it behind Bakugou, you gently wrapped your arms around Katsuki’s neck area, “besides, Suki knows I’ll always come back to him. He’s my one and only after all, right?” You said the last part while looking at Bakugou.
“Right.” Katsuki proudly replied.
You leaned in to give him a little hug from behind and pecked his cheek before walking off to your room.
Katsuki couldn’t help but smile and watch as you walked away. He knew you guys would end up back together. All he has to do is wait. But his moment was ruined by a certain dunce face.
“Damn dude, what the fuck kinda dick did you give her to get her to act like that with you?” He shockingly asked.
“SHUT UP!” Bakugou screamed as his two other friends laughed.
——————————————————————————
Ever since, Bakugou and You grew closer and closer. To others, it looked like exes who stuck to being friends. Best friends, if anything. Y’all played together as best friends, fought and bickered like best friends and looked out for each other and loved one another like best friends. But in reality, you and Bakugou were just falling for each other even more day after day. Yes, it was clear to you both that you were already in love with each other, but damn y’all didn’t know love could grow so strong.
Bakugou stuck to his word though. He was doing whatever it took to get you back, and yeah. Maybe he took a little bit of Kaminari’s advice and continued to treat you as his girlfriend. The only difference was that he didn’t and couldn’t claim you so it kinda hurt him but he was ok because he knows what’ll happen in the end.
So now we have this Bakugou who’s at your every beck and call, even when you don’t call. Thirsty in the middle of class? Bakugou’s got your favorite drink with him on standby. Craving something special? Bakugou will learn how to make it for you. Tired after a hard day’s work? The angry Pomeranian was there to carry you back to the dorms. What a simp.
——————————————————————————
*RIINNNGGGGGG*
And there goes the bell for class. As students walked into their respective rooms, the students of 1-A notice the two entering.
“And here comes Bakugou holding the door for his lady,” Kaminari spoke aloud.
“Hey man, they’re not dating, remember?” Sero reminded him.
“Yet. That’s the exciting part. 2 lovers, patiently waiting for each other. And Bakugou being so willing to drop everything just for Y/N, and Y/N willing to tussle through challenges for Bakugou. Ohh it’s so romantic!!” Mina said with a squeal and excitement.
“Bakubro really doesn’t want anyone else but her....they’re gonna get through this!” Kirishima hopefully said. “If they don’t I’ll beat his ass myself after all the shit I went through for this relationship. You know, THE RELATIONSHIP IM NOT EVEN IN!” He said loud enough for Bakugou to hear.
“Those idiots,” Bakugou growled. “CANT A GUY JUST SPEND SOME TIME WITH HIS GIRL WITHOUT SOME CRACKHEADS WHISPERING ABOUT US?!” He yelled at the group. But with that last comment, you raised your brow.
“So I’m your girl, huh?” You said with a sly demeanor.
This caused Katsuki to blush like crazy. “You know what I meant you little dumbass!”
“Yeah, I’m a dumbass. But apparently I’m your dumbass.” Your snide remarks were beginning to drive Katsuki crazy.
“Ok, that’s it!” With that, Bakugou grabbed your arm and dragged you away from the classroom before Mr. Aizawa came. As the 2 left the room, the boys of the Bakusquad knew exactly what was about to happen.
“Annnddd they’re they go. Off to a place of sweat and ecstasy.” Kaminari sighed.
Ever since that time in the classroom, you and Bakugou have had sneaky links here and there for the past few weeks. A little make out session in the kitchen, a little grinding in the common area, some receiving in many different places. However you were both cautious and made sure it never went beyond that. No vaginal penetration with a penis!
Though you both said you weren’t dating yet, it was obvious where you both would end up.
“What do you mean?” Mina asked.
“It’s nothing you have to worry about, just let them do them.” Kirishima explained.
Fortunately, only the Bakusquad boys were aware of these secret meetings. Once Bakugou told them of the classroom sex, they could tell whenever you two were interested in doing the deed with one another. They also steered clear from Bakugou’s desk. When they found out you both had gone to town on it, they made sure to never go near it unless they knew Bakugou cleaned it up thoroughly.
——————————————————————————
“Mm...Suki..” you breathed out in between the heated kiss.
Here we are in the storage closet. Y/N seated on top of a small standing shelf with Katsuki standing over her and his fist deep inside her.
Katsuki was in the process of marking your exposed breast and enjoying the feeling of your soft walls around his hand. He couldn’t help but speed up his movements.
“P-please....slow down-“ you were cut off by your own moan and cry of pleasure as his fist hit a sensitive area.
“Oh c’mon, you know you love it. You also know you shouldn’t have given all that sass. You knew exactly where it would lead ya,” he spoke as he continued to bite and suck at your nipples. “But I bet you wanted this, didn’t you. You little slut.”
His fist sped up even more and went deeper than before earning loud cries to leave your mouth.
“Ahh...fuck! Y-yes! I wanted this so bad...ohh shit Suki!” You cried out. You felt the coil in your stomach tighten and Katsuki knew what was coming right from the look on your face. He quickly pulled his fist out and dropped his head down to meet your glistening cunt, and continued to finish you off.
“Shit....you taste so sweet.” Katsuki couldnt help but eat you out as if you were his last meal. He groaned as your hands went to tug at his hair to push him in deeper. As he stuck his tongue out to enter inside you, your hips moved on their own and began to grind against his face.
“Yes...yess oh my god..just like that Suki please,”
Katsuki was desperate for more and so his hand went to your clit. He viciously rubbed at it until your legs began to shake.
“F-FUCK!... oh yess...ah!” You let out.
“Let me taste you....come inside my mouth like a good girl and let daddy taste you.” Katsuki demanded.
And you did just that. You released the white honey all on his tongue and Katsuki lapped at every drop, sucking you dry. As he finished his meal he kissed your cunt and continued to kiss you up your body from you stomach to your chest to your neck until he reached your lips. He gave you a passionate kiss, all tongue and love, and you could taste yourself. He was right. You were sweet.
——————————————————————————
During lunch, the Bakusquad, including Y/N, all ate together and had friendly conversations and arguments as usual.
“Man that steak hit the spot!” Kirishima exclaimed with a breath of satisfaction.
“I bet your already full too, huh Kacchan. Bet you already had your fill of Y/-“
*WHACK*
As the tray slowly slid off of Denki’s face after so rudely being thrown at him (curtousy of Sero) he was revealed to an angry Kacchan.
“Shut up dunce face!” Bakugou yelled.
“You’re one to talk Suki. If anyone should shut up, it should be the one with the booming voice.” You said as you ate your udon noodles.
“ME?!?” Bakugou exclaimed.
“Yes you ya dummy!” You retorted.
“You wanna go shitty woman?!?” Bakugou said while standing up now.
“Bring it on Blasty! I’ll take you on any day!” You replied while standing on top of your chair to beat his height.
‘Typical,’ the Bakusquad thought.
You guys would go from lovers to enemies in a split second with a besties vibe somewhere in between. The fun and teasing bickering went on like this for awhile and has been happening for awhile too. But at the end of the day, there was no real beef between you two of course. Just a mutual pining that involved some attitude.
“Man, you guys have so much energy. Cant you guys tone it down, we’re pretty sure you shouldn’t be so energized after you both just fu-“
*WHACK*
Sero was shut up with a tray (revenge from Denki) before he could finish his sentence and expose the soon to be lovers’s dirty secrets.
“I KNOW!” Mina popped up. “How about a beach day?” The pink alien girl suggested.
“Huh?” The entire group said while Y/N and Bakugou sat down again.
“A beach day! We all have pent up energy and some of us wanna relax so why not get everything out at the beach? Oou! And let’s go at night, it’ll be way cooler and so much more fun. Plus, that’s the best time for us to sneak out!” Pinkie explained.
“The hell do you mean sneak out dumbass? It’s a Friday, if we wanna go the beach, we can just go on Saturday, tomorrow.” Bakugou said.
“Jeez you moron, wheres the fun in that. Look this may seem a little wild since we’re hero trainees and all but how about we take a car to get to the beach?” Mina proposed.
“Mina, we’re under 18. We can’t drive.” Kirishima said.
“Legally. But Bakugou here knows how to drive! Remember that one time Mr. Aizawa made him pull the travel bus around the corner because he was too tired to bring it himself?” The alien girl reminded the group.
“Not only that, but Denki’s parents are outta town!” The girl added on.
“Oh yeah! We could totally take my Dad’s car! There’s definitely enough room in there!” Kaminari said.
The group was now starting to get excited. Except for one blonde of course.
“No way. Like you said Pinkie, we’re hero trainees. We can’t risk ruining ours or UA’s reputation just for some trip to the beach.” Bakugou said while downing his rice bowl.
“Aww c’mon man!”
“Whaaat but pleaseee!”
“Seriously dude?”
“Awwww :(“
The group all said in unison. But Bakugou wasn’t cracking. He wasn’t going to risk his career as a future pro just for a quick trip to some sand and sea.
That is until he felt a tugging on his sleeve. When he looked to his left he saw Y/N holding onto his sleeve with a pout and puppy dog eyes. His heart was about to blow.
“Please Suki?” You whined.
You basically embodied the “🥺” emoji. Bakugou had to turn away so he could deny your request.
“Mm mm” he said while staring out the window next to the table.
You let out a huff of frustration while looking towards your group of friends that were staring at you in desperation. You guys were going to get that beach day.
So you pulled onto Bakugou’s arm and pulled his side into your soft pillowy breast. You reached up and whispered into his ear to make sure no would could hear your next words. With a seductive voice, you spoke.
“Please daddy?”
——————————————————————————
And now here we are. The Bakusquad currently on a road trip to the beach at 9:45 p.m. Y/N riding shotgun, Mina and Kirishima in the seats behind you, Kaminari and Sero in the third row right infront of the trunk, and Bakugou behind the wheel. He was just thankful that there was almost nobody driving around here or else they would’ve noticed this young group of teens driving late at night. He was also very thankful that during lunch yesterday, nobody noticed his raging boner after Y/N whispered in his ear.
“Oh my gosh!! We’re almost there!” Mina squealed from behind.
Although it was almost 10, the weather was still really warm so it would be a fun night. Just the moon, the stars, the sand and sea, and your best friends. Perfection.
“Oh! Suki, you missed the turn for the shortcut.” You pointed out.
“No I didn’t dumbass, we’re taking another shortcut.” Bakugou replied.
“Umm, says who exactly?” You retorted.
“The one driving this damn car, now settle your fine ass down before I kiss you.” Bakubitch replied with.
“Ok, just because you add a little flirt and flare to your reply doesn’t mean your in the right.” You stated.
“Oh but I think it does.” Bakugou came back with.
“Oh! Okay Bakubitch, I don’t know who you think you’re getting smart with-“
“I know exactly who I’m getting smart with, teddy bear.” Katsuki said with a smirk on his face.
“.....Fight me. Fight me right now.” You deadpanned while obviously joking.
“I’ll beat your ass any day of the week you shitty woman-“
“Except you’ll LOSE Bakubitch.” You added.
“You wanna fight that bad, huh shitty woman?!” Bakugou now started yelling in a very Bakugou manner.
“I do! I really do Katsuki! Bring it on Explosion boy!” You said
As you and Bakugou started going at it with your words in the car, the squad was starting to get a little tired of this endless pining. JUST DATE EACH OTHER ALREADY. Mina finally snapped.
“OKAY YOU KNOW WHAT?.....I’m just gonna say it.” Mina started with.
‘Huh’ You looked behind you while Bakugou took glances from time to time in his mirror to see Mina as she spoke.
“Why don’t you cut the horse shit, and get to the part where you admit your feelings for each other?” She added on.
“WHAT?!”
“Excuse me?”
“Oh spare me, spare me, spare me!” Mina went on with. Then, Kirishima joined in.
“Yes yes Y/N, he’s a brute, I know-“
“Hey!” Bakugou interrupted but Kirishima just continued.
“He probably reminds you of a bad relationship and gosh you’d like a real nice man to settle down with,” he added on.
“But admit it! You’re real curious to know what he’s like in the sack nowadays!” Kaminari joined in.
“You idiots are dead meat,” Bakugou said.
“And you! HA!” Mina began to speak. “Well you’re just a big man baby who’d rather act tough then show his true feelings because the last time you opened your heart, you got hurt.....OWIE” Mina said in a baby voice.
“And now,” Sero began, “rather than admit these feelings, you’re dancing around one another with this mind numbing and frankly boorish mating ritual.”
Mina spoke once more.
“So PLEASE, for our sake, either quit your bickering, or PULL OVER, TEAR OFF THOSE CLOTHES, AND GET IT OVER WITH ALREADY!!!”
(Silence)
“Aye, I said what I said.” Mina concluded with her hands up at her side in defense.
As Bakugou and Y/N blushed ferociously, the squad behind them finally settled until Bakugou sped up, swerved the car and hit the brakes.....he was parking.
“Oh look, we’re here.” He said.
As he turned around to look at the group, he saw his friends all mixed up and thrown around the van.
“You guys good?” Y/N asked as she turned around in worry.
“Ugghhhhhh.” Her friends replied, clearly a little bruised.
“Alright then, let’s get going!” Y/N said with a sweet smile and exited the car.
——————————————————————————
After everyone had changed into their swim suits, everyone began setting up. The girls stayed behind with Denki to help set up the towels and seats and bring out the coolers, food, and tables. Bakugou, Kirishima, and Sero went out to collect firewood for the bond fire they were gonna make.
As you looked around the beach, you were glad that nobody was around. You guys could be as loud as you wanted, do what you wanted, and just have an awesome night. And the fact that this was a wild beach meant that there was so much more to do. You guys could go cliff diving, mountain climbing, or forest roaming. No lifeguards to stop you.
As the guys came back with fire wood, Mina and Denki pulled out the cooler.
“Hey guys~, guess what we have!” Mina said.
The group watched as Denki pulled out various beers, wine coolers, and a bottle of Hennessy and shot cups.
“Alcohol?” Kirishima asked, “where’d you guys get that.”
“We grabbed it outta my garage fridge. My family likes to turn up a lot so we also got some spares hanging around,” Kaminari explained.
You guys weren’t first time drinkers. You were high schoolers and you’ve been to parties so of course you guys have already had your first taste of alcohol. Hell, even Bakugou had some before. What can he say, he couldn’t help himself after he saw his friends seem to be enjoying themselves a little too much after getting drunk the first time.
As you started the fire with your quirk, everyone else began to get comfy near the blazing flame. Denki was the last to sit since he went to grab his acoustic guitar to play some tunes. When he finally sat down he began to sing a song.
“Let’s sit around the campfire and sing our campfire song! Our C-A-M-P—“
“NO!” The group all yelled.
“Oh alright!” The electric blonde huffed.
The group all laughed and Kaminari then began to play a chill melody on the instrument. The group was happy, laughing, enjoying themselves and having so much fun...well one of them did have something on their mind but nonetheless still enjoying themselves.
Faces were being stuffed with delicious food, alcohol was being passed around, rounds of shots were being downed like water, and everyone was having a good time. A little game of truth or dare started up and ended after Kaminari and Kirishima both threw up in separate bushes after being dared to kiss each other by Mina.
“Never again,” Kaminari said.
“Yeah I’m good with never having to get kisses from my bro again.” Kirishima sighed.
“Oh whatever you big wussies. It was a fun game while it lasted.”
Everyone laughed in agreement.
“Alright well,” Sero spoke, “we all came to the beach, why don’t we get to the main event. I’m gonna go for swim, you guys in?”
As everyone agreed they all started walking to the water. Well except for two people. As Y/N was walking to the shoreline, a hand stopped her as it grabbed onto her arm.
“You idiots go, me and Y/N are gonna join you later.” Bakugou said to the group and they all said their ok’s and went in. “You, come with me.”
As you and Bakugou walked back to the car, he asked you a question.
“So..you’re not drunk are you?” He asked precautiously.
“Just a little tipsy but I’m still in control. Still aware of everything, so no. I’m not drunk.” You answered.
“Ok cool.” He said as he got into the driver’s seat. Once you finally got in and buckled up, he drove off. In the middle of the drive, you asked him a question this time.
“Hey Suki? Where are we going?”
“I found a special place while I was looking for wood. I wanna show you.” He simply stated.
As he continued to drive off to wherever you rested your hand on the center between you and Bakugou and let your face sit in your right palm as you stared out the window. The songs playing throughout the car gave it a loving and chill vibe. You enjoyed the comfortable silence.
As you continued to stare off, you felt Bakugou’s hand intertwine with yours. You looked back and saw he was blushing while holding onto the steering wheel and staring at the road. Man, he was so hot. In nothing but his swimming trunks as he leaned into his chair and drove off. His defined abs and chiseled chest was definitely eye candy. His giant veiny hand gripped the wheel and his jaw was so sharp as he turned and looked around for other drivers. Yeah, Bakugou was definitely one of those people that looked attractive as hell when they began to drive. You looked down at your hands and squeezed his. You were really enjoying this car ride.
When the car came to a stop, you finally noticed how you were in the middle of the forest.
“Where are we Suki?” You asked him.
As he grabbed your hand he spoke, “just follow me teddy bear.”
You guys walked for what felt like a good thirty minutes until you came across.....a cave?
“I know it doesn’t seem like much but wait until you see the inside.” Bakugou said. As you walked in, you finally realized where he took you. A gorgeous crystal cave. Its colors were shining and its gems were sparkling. All the walls were covered except for the top where there seemed to be an opening. It was letting all the moonlight enter the cave causing the crystals to sparkle even more, including the giant pool of water at the center of the cave.
“Suki it’s beautiful,” you said in awe.
“Yeah, knew you’d like it,” He began.
You both sat down at the edge of the pool just dipping your legs in and enjoying each other’s company.
“Y/N.” Bakugou said.
“What’s up Suki?” You asked.
“I can’t help but keep thinking back to what Mina and the others said in the car.” He admitted.
“What? About pulling over and tearing off each other’s clothes?” You chuckled.
“No. About our feelings for each other.” Bakugou said as he just stared at the pool.
“Oh. That.” You calmly said with a hidden smile and soft blush.
Bakugou grabbed onto your hand before speaking again.
“Y/N I really, really, really, really, really love you....a lot. And I’m so sorry for everything I said and did,” Bakugou started.
“Suki....” you softly said while looking at him. You noticed he was staring down at your arm where your now tiny burn mark was. A scar that won’t be forgotten and a memory that was permanently burned into your skin. Literally.
You saw how Bakugou cringed at the sight of it.
“I am so, so sorry for everything. I don’t even know what I could say that could even make up for what I did. Every night memories of what happened keep coming back to me and I’m still in complete shock that I could even do that. To you of all people! The love of my life....I’m just really glad that you said you’d come back to me and that you gave me another chance to get close with you again. I know I said I would wait for you for as long as it takes but I don’t wanna wait anymor-“ Bakugou was cut off as you raised his head to give him a deep kiss. As he kissed you back, Bakugou put everything he couldn’t say as words into that kiss, hoping you’d understand.
When you finally pulled away, you leaned your forehead onto his while staring into his ruby eyes.
“I don’t want to wait anymore either, Suki.”
With that, Bakugou gave you the biggest smile you’ve ever seen. He pulled you in for another kiss and a tight hug.
“So....you’re mine again?” He asked.
“I was always yours Suki. You’re my one and only after all, right?” You teased.
“Right.” He proudly stated. Katsuki Bakugou finally got his girl back. He finally got his love of his life and his teddy bear. His world felt like it came back together again and he no longer felt lost.
After you both spent more time in the cave, exploring, finding all the gems, and enjoying your renewed and fixed love, you and Bakugou found yourselves back in the same spots you were sitting in when you first arrived.
With his eyes closed, chin resting on your head, and an arm wrapped around your waist, with you cuddled into his side and leaned onto his chest, you had a realization.
“Oh hey, Suki.” You said.
“What’s up teddy bear?” He asked with his eyes still closed.
“We never got to go swimming” you said with a pout.
As he opened one eye to look at you, he noticed your adorable pout and the simp in him came out along side with the devil.
“Alright then princess, let’s go for a swim. We have this crystal pool all to ourselves so why not?”
As you gleamed with excitement, you excitingly got up to jump into the water but before you could, Katsuki stopped you.
“Not so fast princess. Our little game of touch and tease is over now since your mine again. I wanna make up for lost time,” he said with a smirk.
“So you’re saying...?” Y/N asked confused.
“We’re going skinny dipping.”
At first it shocked you but then again, this is Katsuki we’re talking about. So you played his little game.
“Maybe your game of touch and tease is over but mine is still running.” You said with a smirk as you walk towards him. You placed your hand on his toned abs as you began speaking again.
“You wanna go skinny dipping Katsuki?” You then slowly went up to whisper in his ear.
“Then let’s get in daddy.”
As you walked away from him you started to undress yourself in a seductive manner. You started with your bikini top, pulled on the string to untie it and tossed it to the side. As you stepped to the pools edge, you did the same to your bikini bottoms and looked over at Katsuki. You didn’t fully face him as you spoke, but as you were holding up your chest pretending to cover yourself up, you showed just enough cleavage to get him riled up.
“You coming or not?” You teasingly asked before you stepped into the water letting its surprisingly warm temperature surrounded you. You had an idea and used your quirk to turn the pool into a hot spring. As the steam surrounded you, a blush from the heat began to show on your face and Bakugou couldnt hide his hard on inside his thin trunks. He undressed himself and entered the now spring.
A/N: YALL I DIDNT REALIZE HOW LONG THIS WAS SO THERE WILL BE A PART 4 COMING OUT RIGHT AFTER THIS ONE. I LITERALLY CANT TYPE ANY MORE SO STAY TUNED!!!

- - -
The light from her computer screen bled into her eyes, blurring as they drooped closed.
Staying up until three in the morning sounds fun in theory, but when you’re doing it to finish an essay, it’s hell. Ryujin could barely think anymore, let alone thread together intelligent sentences.
She let her eyes close, sleep reaching up to claim her.
Then, her phone buzzed loudly.
She fumbled around for it, wincing as it turned on, displaying the message she’d received.
toothless: i talked to chae.
Ryujin stared at the message, processing it. Then it clicked, and sleep retracted its claws. Her fingers trembled as she typed out a response.
me: jesus fduck holy shit this is so nerve wrcaking
me: i hate tihs
me: what did she sya
toothless: *say
me: FUCK YOU
toothless: she said that she and lia are free to meet after school tomorrow
She groaned, her head smacking into the wall behind her. Why did I choose tonight to deprive myself of sleep?
me: k cool ill tell yuna tmrw but ik that they have nthing that afternoon so they’ll be there
toothless: good :D
Ryujin smiled down at her phone. At least I’ll have her and Yuna beside me.
She worried the hem of her skirt between her hands, adjusting it over and over.
“Yeji, where’s Yuna?”
Yeji paused her pacing to sigh at Ryujin. “I don’t know, Jinnie. You’re the one who has her number.”
Ryujin groaned, shoving her face in her hands.
“I’ve already called her like four goddamn times and she won’t pick up the phone!” Ryujin stood up, then sat down on the same bench again.
“God, I can’t believe her!”
Yeji gave her a look.
“What?”
“Ryujin…” she paused to sigh, glancing at the door of the school. Turning back to face Ryujin, she continued: “Do you think that maybe you’re so anxious about this because you actually miss them? And you’re afraid of their reactions?”
Ryujin bit her lip.
“I know I am.” She laughed a little. “I know. It’s stupid to let all of those messy feelings out because of Yuna being late, huh?”
Yeji sat down next to her.
“It’s not stupid, you’re not actually blaming Yuna. Can I ask you something?”
Ryujin nodded.
“Why did you avoid us after- after you came out?”
“I think I was just scared. After my parents found out I felt almost… disgusting. Eventually, it got better, and I told myself I’d never let myself feel that insignificant again. Then, you guys.”
“Oh.” Yeji’s voice was clogged with the barest hint of tears.
“I don’t want to make you feel bad, that’s not what I was trying to do, but I just felt like you needed to at least know how you all made me feel in that moment.”
“I’m sorry-”
“You don’t have to-”
“No, let me do this, Ryujin. I was stupid. Well, no shit, but you know what I mean. You know what I used to think? I used to think that gay people were rare, and that I couldn’t possibly be queer. It was almost like some myth to me. You’re gonna laugh at me for this, but it was almost like you guys were magical beings. Like you existed, but nobody I knew was one of you, and you were surrounded with that shroud of the unknown, something that was riddled with the darkness someone else had put on the canvas. That dark put there to make me hate you.” She snorted. “What a load of stinking, steaming horse shit.”
“Lovely picture you painted there, Hwang.”
“Shut your mouth. Anyways, I know more now, about myself, and how our world works. And I think they do too.”
Ryujin wrapped her arms around Yeji, sinking into her warmth.
“How do you always know what to say?” she murmured.
“I just know you too well,” Yeji said.
Ryujin squeezed her tighter. “That’s dangerous.”
Yeji chuckled softly, her breath tickling Ryujin’s ear. “Don’t worry, baby. I won’t hurt you. Not again.”
“Not to interrupt or like… cock-block- pussy-block? Yeah. Not to pussy-block y’all- ooh, but that’s not as catchy though. Clit-hit? No, that sounds like I’m hitting your clit. V-”
“We should probably just go,” Ryujin interrupted Yuna, getting up from the bench.
According to Yeji, they were going to meet in the park close to Lia’s house. The familiar scenery put a dagger through Ryujin’s stomach, a stinging blade of nostalgia to the gut.
They reached the small park, and caught sight of Lia and Chaeryeong standing next to the benches that they used to sit on whenever they met up at the park.
Something suspiciously like a tear stung the corner of Ryujin’s eye, and she blinked hard. As if she could sense Ryujin’s distress, Yeji reached over and squeezed her hand. “We’re gonna be okay.”
Chaeryeong caught sight of them approaching, smacking Lia’s shoulder and gesturing excitedly at them. The look on Lia’s face caught Ryujin off guard. Her expression was a mix of guilt, shame, sadness, and a note of happiness. She was happy to see her. Somehow, that made the whole situation feel a lot less like a bucket of tears.
They reached the benches, and stood awkwardly, two groups facing each other.
Then Chaeryeong let out a soft sob and dashed forward, catching Yuna in an embrace, and the tension shattered, dissolved.
As the two youngest hugged, Lia approached Ryujin. “Uh, hi,” she said.
“It’s been a while, huh?”
Lia’s face crumpled.
“I am so, so, sorry. I know that doesn’t even begin to cover it, but… I didn’t know what to do with that. I was so opposed to change, it… poisoned me. Warped my perception of you, all because of which gender you’re attracted to. Something told me that you were different after that, like you weren’t the exact same person you were before, the same person you’ve been your whole life. That wasn’t fair of me. I think- I hope I’ve changed now. Become a better person, you know? Not someone who would dump their friends in a heartbeat over irrational prejudices.”
“Thank you. For apologizing.”
Lia shrugged. “It’s sorta the bare minimum.”
“Ha, yeah. It is. I want you to know, I want to be friends again, but I don’t want to pick up where we left off, I want to start over. Get to know you, the better you.”
Lia smiled her little close-lipped smile, her eyes bunching into cute little half-moons. “That sounds nice.”
She drifted away to talk to Yeji, and Chaeryeong pounced on Ryujin.
“Jinnie!”
“Hi, Chae!” Ryujin didn’t hesitate to accept the hug, leaning into the familiar arms.
“I missed your stupid face.”
“Aww, I missed you too. Who else was I gonna talk shit with in the middle of the night?”
Chaeryeong gasped. “Ooh, that reminds me. Have you heard what happened with Minho and Jisung?”
“Oh my god, did something finally happen?”
Chae smirked. “You bet your flat ass something happened. Minho found Jisung’s lyric book and accidentally read one of the songs-”
“You’re shitting me.”
“-and it was about him. I’m totally serious, that infos’ from Chan, so it’s definitely true. I also heard that they fucked, but I heard it from Hyunjin, so there’s like a sixty percent change it’s total bullshit.”
“I don’t know, I feel like Minho probably would have texted me about them fucking by now if something happened.”
Chaeryeong shrugged. “We’ll see.”
Yeji joined them, hooking her hand around Ryujin’s arm. “Hey, sorry to interrupt, but who do we hate now? We need to update the list, it’s been so long.”
As they talked, Ryujin could see Chaeryeong keep looking at Yeji’s hand curled around her arm. Chaeryeong raised an eyebrow, and Ryujin raised hers right back. What’s wrong with her?
Soon, it was almost five. Yuna stood up, stretching. “Okay, guys, I gotta go home. I have a shit ton of homework, so.”
“Okay, yeah, we should probably all get home,” Yeji agreed, getting up too. In a flurry of goodbyes, Chaeryeong pulled Ryujin to the side.
“Hey, Jinnie, I’ve sorta been meaning to ask this since the other day, but what’s going on between you and Yeji? You don’t need to tell me, but…”
Ryujin sighed. “No, Chae, it’s okay. Nothing’s really going on. She’s trying to figure out if she likes girls, and I’m sapphic and available, so it’s a win-win!”
Chaeryeong frowned.
“No, you idiot. It’s not a win-win. It’s a win-get played and get your heart stomped into the dirt. Don’t you realize the position you’ve put yourself into? I, of all people, would know you well enough to know that you would only accept something like that if you were weak for that person, and you’re definitely weak for Yeji. She’s gonna hurt you, and the worst part is, it’s not gonna be intentional, so you’ll only have yourself to blame.”
“So what do I do, Chae?” Ryujin snapped. Tears blurred her vision. “How do you propose I fix this mess?”
“Tell her.”
Ryujin shrunk back into herself.
“No. It’ll ruin everything.”
“Look at her, Ryujin.”
Ryujin looked over at Yeji, and met her sparkling eyes.
“She looks at you like she can’t decide if she’d rather shove her tongue in your mouth or kiss your face all over like one of those disgusting high school couples.”
“Maybe, but I can’t push my feelings onto her before she realizes her own. You know her, she’ll do anything to make people happy.”
“She’ll do anything to make you happy.”
Ryujin whipped her head around to stare at Chaeryeong. “What?”
She shrugged. “I never said she’s not generous, but she’s not a pushover. She has limits for everyone… except you. She’d break the Earth in half if you asked her to. You should have seen her during those horrible months after you came out… she hated herself for it.”
Chaeryeong turned to hug her again.
“I said that she was the one with the power to hurt you in that relationship, but I was partially wrong. I think you could both stab each other in the back, but you’ve both chosen to drop the knife. She would do anything for you. It’s the least you could do to be honest about your feelings,” Chaeryong said, slightly muffled through Ryujin’s shoulder.
Later that night, lying awake in her bed, Ryujin turned that conversation over and over in her head. “She would do anything for you.” But does she want to?

A Change is Gonna Come
Chapter 2
“I had a feeling this was gonna happen” I told myself in my head. Danny had just asked if they could have my song Caravel, I wasn’t necessarily against the idea but I didn’t know if I wanted to give it up quite yet. “So what do you say? We’ll buy it from you” Danny had asked from the other side of the phone, and after all these years I still had their numbers which surprised me, “You don’t have to buy it from me, when i make my decision i’ll just let you guys have it” I told Danny. “So it’s not a yes?” he asked me almost sounding disappointed, “I’m not sure yet Danny. It’s a big decision to make right now” I told him and It was nothing but the truth, handing over a song is a big deal in my eyes, I take time and effort to write song and I don’t want to hand them over like they meant nothing. “No Amara it’s totally fine, take your time we will talk soon” he said in a caring way, and after he said that the call ended.
After me and Josh finally left the studio that night I didn’t know what to do with myself. He had also told me that we they were cutting the texas trip short because they had work back in Nashville that they needed to do. I had made my way back home that night to my apartment. I walked in the door and just threw myself on to the couch. I didn’t really know what I was feeling at this time it was just jumbled in one big emotion that I couldn’t place. I hear my phone chime from the counter in the kitchen, I internally groan not wanting to get up but I do anyways. A simple “Hey” pops up on my screen from Jake, what could he possibly want at 1:04 in the morning? “What’s up?” I simply reply back, “I wanted to send you this guitar solo that I need a second opinion on and everyone else is currently asleep so that’s why i came to you” after I read that a four minute audio recording shows up shortly after. “Holy shit” I said out loud to absolutely no one in my apartment but myself “Holy shit jake i don’t know what you put in that guitar solo but it’s addicting and absolutely amazing.” I replied with my mouth still open from shock. I couldn’t even register what I heard, it was brilliant. “Thank you honestly, i didn’t have much potential in it so again, thanks” he replied back, how could he not have potential in it? it was absolutely amazing. “This is probably gonna sound really stupid but that sounds like something i would hear in a really amazing dream that i never wanna wake up from” i told him truthfully. “Believe it or not i totally see where you’re coming from” he told me “you can totally say no if you want too, but that solo is absolutely amazing and i want to write some lyrics to it if that’s okay?” I asked him truthfully, that piece of music is absolutely amazing and I would want nothing more to write on it. “I would be 100% alright with that, maybe we can meet for some coffee or something tmrw? i’ll see what you got” he told me, it wouldn’t be bad to get a drink with him. “I’d be happy to do that. ill send an address of a place just down the street from my apartment. ill see you then :)” I replied back with a smile.
I had worked on the lyrics all night and I came up with something good. I remember what I had told Jake about his solo “That sounds like something I would hear in a really amazing dream that I never wanna wake up from” so the line “Find the weight of dreams in gold” kinda evolved around that. I had been waiting at the coffee shop for about 10 minutes and still no Jake which wasn’t surprising, the boys were known for always being late, especially the twins. I heard the bell chime from the door and I looked over to finally see Jake making his way towards me, I got up out of my chair to give him a hug, “Hey, i’m excited to hear what you have” he said after leaving the embrace “Hopefully you like it” I told him truthfully, “There’s never gonna be anything of yours that I don’t like so don’t worry” he told me. I brought my journal with all my songs and opened up to the untitled pages with the lyrics I had written in them, Jake was reading the lyrics intently, it’s almost as if he was reading a story that was slowly unfolding in his eyes, his brown doe eyes slowly scanning over the pages, he slowly brought his eyes up to meet mine and and said “You know this is absolutely incredible right?” I blushed really hard I’ve never had people love my words this much so I’m not used to it “Thank you, I know they could use some work but I figured maybe the rest of the guys could help-“ I started before being cut off “We are leaving tonight” Jake told me, I didn’t expect them to leave so soon. I was upset but I had no right to be so why was I? “Oh… that’s fine then I can work on them by myself then” after I said that Jake and I both went quiet, “We’ve all been wanting to ask you something” Jake told me, I looked at him with shocked look. What did they want to ask me? why weren’t all of them here to ask me
if it was so important? I had a lot of questions going on in my head at the moment but I had know what they wanted to ask “What is it?” I asked with a lot of question in my voice “Me and Danny have been talking about you writing for us, We told Josh and Sam about it too and they are on board with it.” I just sat there taking in all this information, I mean I could take this offer, I could do song writing full time and I would even get to go on tour with them, but why was I having a hard time being okay with it?. “Amara, Amara?” I heard Jake say “Yeah?” I said after the snapped me out of my daze, “So? what do you say?” He asked me with a waiting look on his face, I didn’t want to disappoint them and I didn’t want to disappoint myself. I knew that if I declined this offer I would regret it in the future. “Yeah i’ll do it” I told him and he gave me the biggest smile and got up to hug me, “Thank you.” was all he whispered but I knew it it came from deep down in his heart.

Tumblr media
you already knew that joshua meant the world to you - yet there are just some certain moments that come to mind when you think back on it.
one of the first moments that you thought of was when he was playing the guitar.
“whatcha writing down there?” you ask curiously as you leaned over joshua’s shoulder, trying to take a peek at whatever he was scribbling down on his journal. as you rest your chin on his shoulder, you wrap another arm around his neck. a silent chuckle leaves joshua’s lips as he slowly closes the book - pushing it off to the side “nothing that you need to know of just yet”
pouting, a whine leaves your lips as you shake his shoulders back and forth “aw c’mon shuaaa - you’ve been sitting here all day playing your guitar and you won’t even let me know what you’re doing”
he moves to the side a little so that he was able to get a good look of your face. setting his guitar down on the table in front of him, he motions for you to sit down with him. once he realizes you won’t budge as long as that pout on your lips was there, he stands up to wrap an arm around your waist - pulling you over the couch as you loudly yelped in surprise.
joshua places you onto his lap as he sits back down. securely wrapping his arms around your waist as he looks up at you with large, apologetic eyes “i’m sorry - were you getting lonely without me?” he teases.
all you could do was scoff in response which joshua just laughs at. its quiet for a second before he speaks up again “i can’t let you see it just yet. it’s a surprise”
“can i at least have a hint?”
he smiles at your question, reaching over to grab his guitar that he left on the table. he places it on your lap, leading your hands to hold onto it with his own. you were glad he wasn’t able to see the blush that covers your cheeks as he guided your hands to the guitar chords.
leaning over your shoulder to look at your hands, you can feel his hot breath graze your neck, which causes goosebumps to spread through your body “place your finger right here on this chord, and just strum lightly - exactly like that”
after teaching you a couple more chords, he pulls his hands away from yours, causing a wave of disappointment to wash over you. turning to look up at him, you give him a curious look “what was that for?”
he just shrugs as he moves himself towards the end of the couch, a sly smile on his face the entire times. opening up his notebook, he starts skimming through the pages “just chords for the song that i’m writing”
“song?”
“mhm - for you”
your face immediately turns red at his response “what?! you’re writing me a song?! why!”
he gives you a look of genuine confusion “do i need any other reason asides from the fact that i love you? anyways - it’s not ready yet so you’re just gonna have to wait” was all he said before getting up and leaving.
“wait! you can’t just say that and leave!” you call out after him as he laughs.
“i just did!”
that was the first time you had realized just how much joshua loved you.
Tumblr media
“y/n… whats that in your jacket?”
you freeze from where you stood in the tiny apartment that the two of you shared. it was raining outside, and you were drenched from head to toe. joshua gives you a questionable look as he crosses his arms, cocking up one of his eyebrows.
you slowly look up as you clutch your jacket to your chest, a dumb look on your face “my jacket? theres nothing in it other than me, myself and i” you reply back. his eyes squint towards you as you try your best to avoid his gaze “you sure?”
as you open your mouth to respond, you were cut off with a bark coming from inside of your jacket. moments later, a small puppy pops up from your jacket - wiggling its way out of your arms and jumping onto the floor. a sheepish look covers your face as you lean down to pick up the puppy “okay maybe i was lying”
joshua doesn’t even look shock at the news, only a tired sigh coming from his lips “i thought you were going to get groceries”
you kick your shoes off and you hold the puppy closer to your chest “i know i said that but! look at him shua! isn’t he so cute!” you ask him as you walk towards your boyfriend. he looks down towards you and the dog in your arms as he chuckles “you know that you can’t just pick up stray dogs and bring them home right?”
your shoulders slump at his reply, a pout forming on your lips “i mean i know that… but he was all alone in the rain and he looked so sad… i couldn’t just leave him there!”
he nods in understanding, wrapping his arms around your waist to pull you closer “i know you had good intentions - but have you ever considered that our little friend has an owner already?”
turning towards the side, you pull the dog in closer “well they just left him outside all alone in the rain they’re obviously not a good owner” you say under your breath.
joshua points towards the dogs neck “isn’t that a collar? have you checked if they belonged to someone?”
“no… but!”
“we can’t just steal someone else’s dog - they may be upset right now”
a sigh leavings your lips as you lean forward to rest your head on your boyfriend’s shoulder “i know… but he’s just so cute!”
“i know he is, but he isn’t our dog. how about this - after we return him lets go to the shelter and see if we can get our own?”
you gasp loudly as you quickly turn to look up at him, eyes wide and filled with hope “really! do you mean it!”
joshua nods, a soft smile on his face “of course - but we still have to return him first okay?”
you nod your head quickly, noticing the fond smile that joshua aims towards you “what? what is it?”
all he does is shake his head, brushing off the question “nothing, you just look really cute right now” is what he tells you - quickly causing your face to heat up. he places a hand on your forehead as he leans in close, causing your breath to hitch.
“you feel warm - lets go change your clothes before we go back out. we wouldn’t want you getting sick do we?” he tells you as he pulls you on your head, dragging you towards your bedroom. you just nod shyly in response to his question as he laughs quietly at your reaction.
that was the second time you had realized just how much joshua loved you.
Tumblr media
“joshua stay back! i don’t want you to catch -” you suddenly stop your sentence as you felt a sneeze coming up. quickly burying your face into your elbow, you let out a loud sneeze. joshua shakes his head at you as he pushes you back down onto the bed “shh, just let me take care of you”
feeling weak, you’re unable to even fight back “you’re always taking care of me though - it’s my fault that i got sick in  the first place…”
joshua nods his head in agreement despite the offended scoff that leaves your lips “it is in fact your fault. i told you to dress warmly and bring an umbrella, and what did you do?”
“i didn’t dress warmly…”
“what else?”
“or bring an umbrella when it rained…”
he hums in acknowledgment as you places a wet towel on your forehead “i would say i told you so, but i think that you’ve learned your lesson”
a small frown appears on your face as joshua continued to scold you. you open your mouth to say something, but felt a pang in your head, causing a look of discomfort to now show on your face. a flash of worry appears on joshua’s features as you groan in pain “take it easy okay? don’t push yourself” he tells you as he hands you some medicine.
you place in the medicine in your mouth as you reach for the water, joshua’s already one step ahead of you. he brings the water up to your lips before you can even protest, helping you drink. once he pulls the cup away, you frown immediately “you don’t need to take care of me - you’ll get sick too”
he just shrugs at your comment though as he places the cup back down “i’m your boyfriend - why wouldn’t i take care of you?”
you’re about to retort back before he cuts you off with a quick kiss on the lips. you gasp loudly as you look at him in horror “joshua!”
joshua just laughs at your reaction “you can pay me back when i get sick by taking care of me. besides - if i wasn’t here to take care of you who would be?”
you’re unable to think of a response as joshua wraps his arms around you to pull you in for a hug “don’t worry y/n - i’ll always be there to take care of you” he reassures, causing your shoulders to relax.
a week later, joshua catches your cold.
“i told you that this would happen.” you scold him as you bring a spoon of soup up to his lips. he just smiles cheekily at you as he sits warm in bed “i told you you’ll be paying me back. but you don’t need to take care of me either - i was just joking really”
a light laugh leaves your lips at his comment. you place the bowl down and turn to look at him, grabbing his face with your hands “and like you said - i’ll always be there to take care of you too”
his face turned from surprised to one filled with adoration quickly as he gives you a toothy smile “then we’ll be taking care of eachother until we’re old and wrinkly”
that was the third time you had realized just how much joshua loved you.
Tumblr media
“did you make these cookies yourself y/n?” seungcheol asks as him and jeonghan take a bit out of the cookies that you just baked. you nod your head excitedly as you await for their responses “i did! what do you think?”
before anyone could say anything, jeonghan opens his mouth to spit out the cookie “what did you even put in this? poison?”
you frown at his comment as you turn to look at seungcheol “they can’t be that bad!” you retort, but the look of disgust on seungcheol’s face tells you otherwise. he places the bitten cookie back down as he looks at you with wariness “why is it… so salty…”
“what are you even talking -” you start off as you grab a cookie from the cooling rack, but you stop yourself once you take a bite - a bitter taste of salt filling up your mouth. you quickly spit it back out as you now understand what your friends meant “why is it so salty!”
jeonghan shakes his head at you as he picks up one of the cookies to inspect it “maybe you put in the wrong ingredient when you were making it?” this comment makes you gasp as you come to realize your mistake.
“i think i mixed up the salt and the sugar!”
both of your friends give you looks of pity as you drop your head into your hands “this is horrible how am i supposed to give them to joshua now! i spent the last three hours for nothing!” you groan. seungcheol claps his hands together as he thinks of an idea “i know! lets throw them away before he gets home! then he’ll never know of your failure!”
raising your head from your hands, you give seungcheol a deadly glare which causes him to freeze in his chair “was it necessary to say it like that”
before any other ideas are thrown, the sound of the front door opening is heard - causing the three of you to panic.
“i’m home!” a familiar voice calls out, and before any of you were able to even touch the cookies - joshua has already entered the kitchen “oh! seungcheol! jeonghan! what are you two doing here?”
“well you see, y/n here wanted us to try her oh so amazing and delicious cookies that she’s worked so hard on” jeonghan explains, a devilish look in his eyes. seungcheol sighs once he realizes what jeonghan was planning and joshua just looks surprised.
he turns to you with a curious look on his face, glancing back down at the cookies on the cooling rack “you made cookies y/n?” he questions and all you can do was nod sadly “i was planning on surprising you with them when you came home but -”
“y/n spent hours working on these wonderful cookies just for you shua - why don’t you try some?” jeonghan presses on to which joshua nods. you glare at jeonghan who just gives you mischievous look back. as joshua reaches over and grabs a cookie, panic settles inside of you,
“look you really don’t have to -”
“these are great!”
you pause from where you stood and jeonghan and seungcheol both have the same confused look on their faces as you. joshua gives you a genuine smile as he takes another bite out of the cookie in his hand.
“they’re - wait what did you say?”
he nods as he continues to eat it - no sign of hesitation or lie on his face “you did great on them baby! thank you for the cookies” he tells you, leaning over to place a kiss on your forehead. you just stand there confused as he ultimately finishes up the cookie before grabbing another one.
jeonghan and seungcheol share a look with each other before turning back to joshua.
“you really think they’re good?” seungcheol asks warily which joshua nods in response to “of course i do - anything that y/n makes from scratch is good”
you felt your heart flutter at his response as you just stare up at him with wide eyes. jeonghan stares at joshua intently as he watches him eat another cookie “don’t you think theres anything off about it? maybe it tastes a little - salty?”
joshua pauses from eating the cookie and you hold your breath as you wait for his response. he just shakes his head though as he continues to eat the rest of the cookie “hm, its a little bit salty - but i still like it anyways”
as he finishes off the salt cookie, he excuses himself and tells you that hes going to go change first and be right back. you nod in response and the three of you wait until he finally leaves the kitchen. once you realize hes out of range, all three of you turn towards the cooling rack - each shoving a piece of cookie in your mouths.
as if on cue, you all spit the cookie back out. seungcheol grabs a napkin and tries to wipe the taste out of his mouth “either joshua’s a really good liar and was trying to get back at hannie - or theres something off about his tastebuds.”
jeonghan nods in agreement as he throws away the leftover cookie that he had onto a paper towel “i have no idea how he was able to eat three of those biohazards without even flinching”.
“its literally a salt cookie what is wrong with him” seungcheol questions as he grabs a glass of water for him and jeonghan. as jeonghan reaches to take the glass of water from seungcheol’s hand, he shakes his head. 
“theres no way he actually found that edible - he must’ve just lied so he wouldn’t hurt y/n’s feelings”
you just stare at the cookies in shock as you realized that joshua ate your cookies no matter how gross and salty it tasted - just because you made them. a soft smile slowly appears on your face as you recall watching him eat the cookies you made - going as far as complimenting and thanking you for them.
that was the fourth time you had realized just how much joshua loved you.
Tumblr media
“guys shh!” someone says as joshua enters into his apartment that he shared with you. his eyebrows furrow together in confusion as he takes off his shoes and his coat.
“y/n? you there?” he calls out as he realizes just how dark the apartment was. he waits for you to answer and immediately fills up with worry once he doesn’t hear your reply. he’s about to take his phone out to call you, but is stopped once the lights suddenly turn on.
he covers his eyes as he tries to adjust to the brightness as loud pops suddenly filled his ears. moving his hands from his eyes, he is then met face to face with you holding a birthday cake along with the rest of his friends. confetti falls onto him as more party poppers were released.
“happy birthday joshua!”
his eyes widen in shock once he realizes what was going on. a wide smile covers his face as he looks behind you to see his friends holding confetti poppers as well as a large banner saying ‘happy birthday shua!’ on it. looking around, he realizes the rest of the apartment was decorated as well. he then looks at the cake you were holding in your hands.
“did you do this all for me?” joshua asks you in disbelief. you nod your head as you smile back at him “of course i did! why wouldn’t i?”
joshua just shakes his head though, the smile never leaving his face “i totally forgot it was even my birthday today”
his friends just laugh at his reply as one of them points towards you “you should thank y/n! they were the one to plan all of this!” he looks back at you as you turn your head away from him sheepishly “did you really plan all of this for me?”
you nod your head shyly as you feel his gaze now on you “i mean… yeah… it’s really not that big of deal…”
somehow, the smile on his joshua’s face grew ten times bigger. he leans down and gives you kiss on the top of your head “thank you y/n, it truly means the world to me”
shaking your head though, you look at him with a soft smile on your face “i just wanted to show you just how much i loved you since you do it to me all the time” you reply back, causing joshua to laugh in response.
“you don’t have to do anything - i already know how much you love me.”

Mind If I Vent?
Well... It def has been awhile.. 
How do I start these again? Just by going right into in? Alrighty then lets just right into it...
The year of 2020 has been a crazy year for everyone, From losing friends, family to jobs and homes.. I was fortunate enough to have found a job after being let go at my previous job back in Dec of 19′ so I’ve been keeping myself busy, but of course, can’t work hard n not play hard, Had some really close friends in my life at that time and I believe it was about around Feb or even Mar where I found out some things about a certain friend within the circle of people I was around, Did not sit well w/ me so therefore distancing myself from them, One friend who is closely connected to 5 others was also effected and has distanced as well so the circle got even smaller.. Which is fine, Having a small circle has always been something I am okay with; I actually much prefer it. As the months goes by, I then met the most important in my life today, She is someone who I cherish dearly and adore.. She’s mentally has helped been there for me and somehow manage the save the kid inside me, the joy self I use to once be when I was a kid.. Before I would be very uptight and always serious taking everything to heart and never wanted to be around fun and just as some might say a cranky son of a gun.. Well not today.. I can be the silly me when I was a kid and boy does it feel great to just be yourself and loved for just you and who you are.. The people that has come and left my life in the past were not able to come close to what you have given me.. and I cant thank you enough for just being you.. I stare deeply into your eyes and love you more and more as I stare into those brown eyes of yours.. Let me just pause there cause I could go on and on about what happens when I look into those eyes. 
Where were we? Oh yes, My small circle at the time, Soon after spending more time w/ you, I reached out to my small circle I had to see them and hangout w/ them and nothing gets planned.. So then you hit me w/ a plan then we do it! Yes! Then weeks goes by and the small circle didn’t even feel like it was even a circle anymore for me but of course social media now a days you can see what people post/are up to lately and the circle was still a circle.. I just happen to not be part of that circle anymore.. It hurts.. Feeling like you are not part of a circle anymore does some damage on you.. and of course as work goes, The job I was promoted to I was super stoked on so the thought of not being part of the small circle did not effect me as much since I have kept my mind busy.. With the new position comes new problems and stress, on top of all that comes the stress and the verbal/mental abuse.. which yes I do have thick skin but my gawd, It does take a chunk out of you.. On a side note; Few months goes by and we finally move into a nice little apartment together which has been amazing, Bringing in the new year of 2021 w/ you and ready to take on those challenges w/ you.. 
Ps. Going on the 3rd month of the year and little problems has risen.. Why do I feel as I have created problems for you.. I do not mean to create problems for you, I just want you to be comfortable and happy, I was always told or taught as a kid, The more laughter you bring into a group of people, the loosen they get and they too will laugh and have a great time, So I tried that.. But it seems to backfire once in awhile.. It feels as sometimes I cant even talk or say things and just things comes out.. maybe its true.. maybe I cant say things and they mean well, maybe I have to explain myself.. What do you guys think?.. Wait.. LOL nobody reads my blogs so this is literally me and my thoughts.. If you have made it this far .. Thank you for being a good listener/reader and read my problems and this little update on my life.. I hope you have a great rest of your day, Member to tell those you love that you love them because today is a gift, tmrw is not a promise..

talk to girls ?i started watching anime back in 2015 on my 3ds i remember watching dubbed Inazuma Elevensince like 2 weeks ago i reached 201 anime completedok i ll stop here for tonight cause i got online uni classes tmrw i keep stimestamps for whenever i finally post this -Tuesday 3/11/2020 02:41used to be around 85-90kg in 12th grade , put on around 20-28 kilos since March 2020 , managed to lose 8-10 kilos in the summer but i m still around 30kilos up from the normal amount based on my height , got a subscription to a gym jan2019 but only managed to get into it for a short period on spring 2019 then autumn 2019 then lost motivation and let go , since March2020 i ve been doing some weights at home , tho when i look at myself in the mirror it doesnt really change how bad i feel about my body , i think my old motivation used to be a girl i used to have a crush on but not surethings with my parents werent all that great and i was mentally better when i would talk with them , they are openminded af and supportive too but puberty makes you see stuff differently like everyone is against you like the world is against you (last one might be true dunno yet) , living on my own now seems to be a bit better but as our Greek ancestors used to say theres no good without bad and the bad in this scenario is that its lonely as fuck , having lived for 18 years with my family it really hits a weird spot , everything feels lonelier now with the virus spreading around not being able to see others as much as we used to , uni doesnt feel nice , many people dont pay attention and its like the second half of 12th grade all over againgot my monthly money 4days ago , went from 200 to 9.28 quickly , when i have money i spend when i dont i m stingy , mostly like to build computers , watch lots of Linus , Paul , Kyle , Jay etc. most of my money goes to buying stuff about computers food , used to give lots of money to internet cafes when i used to hang out with the guys from school , not anymorewith the start of uni we all met new friends even i but i still feel like i am drifting apart day by day , stopped talking to my old girl friend cause i was kinda done with her attitude , called me some names i didnt appreciate because i put up with her attitude , most of the time in her own world , only would really pay attention and try to change herself when it was something she cared about , one of them wasnt her character , but to give the goods of her she was a good friend dont know if i can say she still is a friend or just someone i know , she helped me even with the girl i had a crush on , was really fun on trips with the guitar group , all in all a fun person , thing is i stopped texting her and telling her to go out cause it was 80% me trying and the other 20% her and i think that proved right when i stopped talking to her cause i thought she will see that i m not talking to her she ll think somethings wrong she ll message me to go out and have fun , send me a happy bday message posted some pics of me , didnt send me anything else after , stopped talking to her around the start of October , if i hadnt asked her something about her uni and if it wasnt my bday i dont think we wouldve talked in all of october . last saturday i was working in the area she lives in my city decided to call her sometimes didnt answer tried to suprise her and see how she is by going to her house , noone answered maybe they were on a trip idk , but it feels weird man , in the first half of the year me and a common friend of her and me went out one night , ended up being the bad guy to make her understand that she did something wrong that night , after she left i was left with our common friend talked about stuff and mostly her and i expressed myself , i knew that coming summer me and her would end up at different places so i wanted to tell her all the wrongs with her so that she could finally understand what i ve been putting up against and make her understand that she HAS to pay attention to people around her and that she will meet new people and that she ll have to be careful about her character , used to have a bit of crush on her back in 7th grade , can kinda understand why that went . On the other hand i didnt want to part ways with her with our last words being me ranting , one thing brought the other and she wont be going to her uni's city until early 2021 so i managed to go out with her some more in the summer and september . kinda feels bad to see that almost noone remembered my bday cause i remember in cram school when someone had their bday they would get a fucking cake , dont mistake me i got one , from my ma my two sisters and my moms husband , thing is i wanted to have something happen with friends , nothing happend , around 4 people remembered my bday and the others just send me some happy bday messages after seeing posts from the girl i m talking about .also heres a good song to listen to while reading stuff on reddit Sorrow from FSN by MN64 cant post links from what i understandgonna stop here for now might edit later -Tuesday 3/11/2020 15:15thing is reddit is not the right place to get help and i need a friend but it seems i cant get any from my friends , even my other friend the guy i used to sit with in all middle-high school he has drifted apart , talking more with other of his friends doing other stuff etc , that one time i needed to talk to him he said i ll call you in a while , waitied 1 and a half hour then asked him why he didnt call he said he forgot (i think) , feelsbadmananyway i dont think i m gonna keep editing this i ranted enough , gonna leave the post up for a day or so in case anyone wants to add anything then taking it down -Tuesday 3/11/2020 23:58

Bryce’s stepsister pt 1 (2.0)
summary: you’re Bryce Walker his new stepsister and you get welcomed to the world on liberty high as a junior. 
Names:            Amy Everly, your mother
                       Luke Everly, your brother
                       Megan Everly, yourself
Words: 2,2 K
Tumblr media
(gif is not mine)
Bryce already knew the drill; his father got a new girlfriend, it lasted for 2 months tops and again. It was like that since around 3 years ago, his mother died 4 years ago in a car accident, first his father didn’t come out of the house more than once a week but then that happened, he got out there again. But this time it didn’t went like this. He didn’t know his father was seeing someone again since a week ago and now they were moving, new house, new mother figure, new sister, new brother. 
 Bryce’s POV –
 I was bringing my boxes upstairs to my room, I started with putting up my closet and put my clothes away when my father shouted. “Bryce, can you come downstairs for a second?” I sighed not wanting to quit halfway trough something but still went downstairs.
“Bryce this is Luke, Amy’s son. He’s already attending college, so I don’t think you’ll see him around much. But I think you’ll get along great!” I greeted him and we had a little chat, we got along pretty great (like my dad already thought)
So, when we went for dinner that night we just kept talking, no awkward silences or something. My dad and Amy really liked we got along great. “I hope you get along with Meg, just as good.” Amy exclaimed, I assumed meg was short for Megan, her 17-year-old daughter who will attend Liberty when school starts again.
Which was only just 2 weeks left. “Oh, while we’re talking about Megan, her flight lands tomorrow so can you maybe pick her up or something? Amy and I still need to do some shopping for the new house, maybe Luke wants to come with? “my father asked. I wasn’t planning on doing much tomorrow, so I agreed. “oh, I can’t come with, I’m sorry. My girlfriend and I are going to the city tomorrow.” Luke apologized. I shook it off saying he didn’t need to feel sorry.
Instead I asked my friends to come with, since it was a pretty long ride to the airport so I could talk to someone, and then she could already meet some more people.
Brothaas 💪
I:                    are you guys doing something tomorrow? Cuz I need to pick up                            Amy’s daughter from the airport tmrw, but I need some company                          ya know.
Monty:         depends on if she’s hot 😉
I:                   mkay Monty’s not coming with, anyone else?
Scott:           sorry bro, I can’t. I promised my little sister to help her with                                   something.
Monty:         why don’t I know your sister Scottie?
Scott           probably because she’s 9 but sure
I:                 Monty you coming with then? Because the rest takes too long to
                    respond
Monty:         yea sure, how late are you picking me up?
I:                   Idk when her plain lands so I’ll let you know when I know
 “Amy, why is Megan alone on vacation anyway?” I asked looking up from my phone
before I responded I glanced at my father showing him the texts, well not really just the ones confirming Monty’s coming with. He gave a thumbs up. “she was visiting her father, but Luke came back earlier because of preparing for college but since they can’t see their father that much Megan decided to stay longer.” Amy answered after taking a sip of her water.
Later that night I searched her flight and texted Monty, he then responded he sadly couldn’t come with since he needed to help his mother with something. So, I went alone the next morning.
I put on some music and started driving, it was about a 40-minute ride, but it wasn’t as boring as I thought it would be. When I arrived at the airport, I parked my car and went inside to wait where she would go after checking out and grabbing her luggage and stuff. I took a seat and went on my phone. After a few minutes I wasn’t really paying attention to my surroundings anymore, so I didn’t notice when a girl came up to me.
 “hey, I’m Megan you must be Bryce.” She smiled but looked a little bit tired from traveling or something. “yea that’s me, nice to meet you. Can I help you with your luggage?” I asked knowing my father wanted me to be polite which is pretty normal. “yes, thank you.” She smiled while pointing to one of her bags “you can take that one, it’s pretty light.”
We walked to the car getting to know each other a little better, I got to know that she wanted to try out for cheerleading, that she was kind of clumsy, that she had humor and that she was drop dread gorgeous and I already knew what the topic in the locker room was going to be around the next coming weeks.
When we came home everything with moving was already done, well everything unless Megan’s room. Which she went and did right away. I was bored so decided to throw a party tonight since why not.
I asked my father and Amy if they couldn’t go to a hotel or something and they were like why not it’s like a date so that was fixed. I then texted Chloe and Mont to tell everyone and I then went to Megan’s room. “hey Megan, I’m throwing a party tonight, maybe I can introduce you to some people for the school starts again?” I said standing in her doorway “oh yea that would be nice thanks” she said turning around flashing a smile. 
“I can ask Chloe if she wants to get ready with you and maybe some other friends of her?” I proposed thinking she would maybe appreciate that. “depends on if she’s nice but if she is, I would really like that.” I laughed “yea she’s a good person, I wouldn’t date her otherwise” I smirked “oh I’m sorry I didn’t know” I snorted “it’s okay really, I’ll text her if she would want to come around 8.” I said before I walked out of her room. “oh, and I’ll add you to the group app if you want” she nodded.
Breakfast at Bryce’s
Bryce Walker added Megan Everly
Bryce: this is Megan, Amy’s daughter. She’s joining Liberty as well and if u don’t like her suck it up
Jessica: hey Megan, welcome to this I wish you good luck and I would escape now you still can x
Bryce: fuck u Jessica
Jessica: no thanks :)
Megan: hahaha
Bryce: oh, guys party at mine’s tonight 9 ish you probably already knew but idc
Bryce: ^ Megan’s and I’s
Jessica: Megan I heard from Chloe, me Chloe and Sheri will be there around 8 xx
Megan: thanks x
 Megan’s POV (it’ll probably be like that most of the time but yea)
 It was almost 8 and the girls could be here any second and to be honest I was pretty nervous, especially since I knew no one but Bryce. I was sitting on the couch with Bryce trying to get our parents away. When they were finally gone, almost immediately the doorbell rang. I went to open it because Bryce was already heading to the store to get some plastic cups and some more ping pong balls.
When I opened the door, I saw 3 girls, as expected. One girl with blonde hair, and two with brown curls. They were all so pretty so I understood why Bryce would date one of them. “omg you’re so pretty! Oh, I’m sorry I’m Jessica, this is Sheri and that’ll be Chloe” I smiled because I could already tell they were really nice, we got to know each other and then went to my room to get ready.
I was curling my hair while we were talking about boys. “so, I’m dating Justin, so you know, Chloe is with Bryce and Sheri is on and off with Scott, so I don’t really know about that. But you definitely need a boyfriend.” Jessica said while looking trough my closet for a cute outfit. She then turned around and looked at Chloe and Sheri with a certain look. “what does that look mean?” I asked confused. “okay so, we’re going to introduce you to some boys, Jeff, Zach, and Montgomery.” Chloe explained. “you’ll then pick the cutest and we’ll set you two up” Sheri said excited.
“wow, you got that from one look?!” I laughed but still agreed with their little plan expecting them to introduce all of the friends anyway. When I was done doing my hair and Jessica picked a cute outfit, we were all ready. I just did on some mascara and lip gloss and was ready.
I was wearing a black toned see trough turtleneck shirt with a black bra underneath, (not a slutty one tho) black jeans, some white converse and some jewelry, my hair was curled and hung loose over my shoulders. We took some selfies before and then went downstairs.  It was a quarter past nine at this moment. There weren’t many people yet, Sheri explained that around the time it started only the non-friends were there, most of the times their friends started to show up a half hour later.
They introduced me to one or two people who they thought were important enough. I was talking to someone whom I already forget the name of when I decided to get a drink, I couldn’t find the girls anymore, but I figured I would run into them now or then. I poured myself a drink making sure there was alcohol in it. I took a sip and looked around me for a second. I was taking in my surrounding when someone came up to me, “hey, you’re Megan right? Bryce is looking for you, he’s in the living room.” The boy told me. “oh yeah that’s me, I’ll go look for him. Thanks”
I walked towards the living room looking for Bryce. I bumped into someone. “hey watch were you’re going.” He said before he walked off. I apologized but he probably didn’t hear it. I took a sip of my drink and spotted Bryce. “Bryce!” I yelled trying to come above the music. “Bryce!” I tried again coming closer to him. He heard me. “hey Megan, here you are, I wanted to introduce you to some people.” I nodded taking another sip of my drink, feeling the alcohol kick in a little. He introduced me to some off his friends, I met jess’s boyfriend, Jeff Atkins, Scott Reed and I was now talking with Zach.
“Megan, Zach come here, Bryce vs Monty with beerpong” Jeff yelled. “who’s Monty?” I asked while Zach guided me to the beerpong table. “Bryce hasn’t introduced you yet? He’s Bryce’s best friend” I nodded slowly not really understanding why he wouldn’t introduce his best friend, but I didn’t think to much about it.
“heyyy Megan there you areeee” Jessica slurred hanging over Justin’s shoulders. “I’m going to lay her in a bed or something” Justin snorted escorting her inside. I grinned taking another sip of my drink. When we came there, I wanted to lose up a little since I wasn’t doing much for most of the night. So, I decided to join beerpong, I was with Bryce’s friend (forgot his name) since Chloe was with Bryce.
I sucked at it, so badly. There was one cup left by us and 4 by Bryce and Chloe. I was so drunk at this moment since it was like the third round we played because let’s be honest, it’s a fun game. At this point I was about to throw the ball when I leaned forward and fell on the table, but since it was just a plastic table it fell down just like me.      
I laid on the ground giggling when Bryce decided it was enough, so he made sure I was going to sleep. He brought me to my room and laid me in bed he grabbed a glass water and an aspirin for me thinking I would need it in the morning the next day, well actually still the same day. “night night Brycie” I slurred “goodnight Meg” he grinned before he closed my door and walked back to the party. It didn’t take long before I fell asleep.  
When I woke up my head hurt so bad, and to make it better my mother was back home already and she didn’t like it that much that just woke up at 2 pm with the biggest hangover I’ve ever had. When I showered and came downstairs she was cleaning the kitchen. “morning mom” I said while grabbing a plate. “it’s not morning anymore” she answered coldly.
I grabbed a towel and threw it at her back since she wasn’t facing me. “mooom don’t be mad, it’s my fault, I know that so you don’t have to be mad” she turned around and laughed while throwing the towel back at me. “young lady we’re not throwing towels without permission here.” I stuck out my tongue while grabbing my plate and some food sitting at the kitchen island. She laughed, “well then, how was the party, you met some new people?” my mother asked pouring in some orange juice for me. “thanks mom, yeah I did. I met most of Bryce’s friends, they’re nice” she smiled and then continued cleaning the kitchen while I was scrolling through my phone seeing al the pictures and videos from last night.
 I think I can get used to Liberty High if it’s with these people.

Guys im gonna start my first day of college tmrw im soooo stressed im scared i wont be able to make friend or keep up with students in my major and omg my anxiety is hitting the rooooooooooooof . Plus yesterday my dad’s friend told me that choosing biomedical engineering as a major was stupid and now i want to change it but i also always wanted to do that and im sorry for this long ass msg but i am so stressed guys help me what do i do to calm myself.
Ahhh! Sorry I’ve only just seen this darling! I’ve been so busy tonight! First of all fuck your dad’s friend he doesn’t know what the fuck he’d talking about, your life your decision okay babe? You wanted to choose it for a reason so he can go and suck it, if he has a problem him send him my way and I’ll have words xx  I totally understand your anxiety being through the roof mine was too on my first day of college,
Just remember that everyone there is going to be just as nervous as you are and sometimes more because no one else knows one another yet, everyone is new to that college and they’re all doing the same course/ major as you. Be yourself and I’m sure you’ll be fine darling and will make a ton of friends. I’m here if you want to message me throughout the day and keep you calm! 
Please don’t ever be sorry about messaging me long or short, I’m here to help you guys! Even if I do suck at advice I’ll try my advice always to help you, I love you and I hope this reaches you, I’m sorry it took me so long!!! 
I don’t have many tips but one thing I did to make myself calmer was where a rubber band/hair tie around my wrist and whenever I got nervous I would play with that to keep myself distracted, it’s always hard to give advice to people with anxiety cause I know what works for me might not work for you but here’s how I used to deal with it 
Wear something I was confident in, that way I could feel okay about myself
the rubber band I mentioned, or In my later years I had a fidget cube 
I tried to make the things I was into obvious, so I had a kpop sticker on my phone in college and that helped me with that,
I’d be nice to everyone I could be nice to, if I saw someone sitting alone I would try and introduce myself (nerve-wracking I know but it helps thinking about how nervous they are as well)
Remembering that it’s everyone elses first day and they’re probably having the same thoughts as you
I hope this helps in some kind of way, I’m sorry it’s late darling, I love you and I hope you have a good first day! Let me know how it goes please!

Burning Memories (One Shot)
Summary: Camila and Lauren reunite by fire at the beach as they reflect on their past relationship while active in Fifth Harmony and struggle to wrap their heads around what’s in store for them as they navigate adulthood and contemplate the future.
Burning Memories
Camila Cabello was no more than ten yards from her car and already breaking a sweat from the weight of the logs and kindling she was carrying. She silently cursed the spontaneity of her plans and the resulting poor execution. The notebooks tightly squeezed into the backpack on her shoulders may as well have been bricks when combined with the other supplies that she brought along to the beach. However, it was inching near sunset, so being aware of how dark it would get afterward inspired a slight hustle in her to find the perfect spot for setting up.
There were a few other people within eyesight scattered along the beach but nobody close enough to get a good look at pop music’s stream queen. Ideally wherever she landed would stay secluded and afford her the privacy desired to conquer the evening’s mission without fear of recognition. At just about the point when she felt like her arms might fall off or her legs might give out from under her, Camila found a space that met her criteria and she gently dropped her supplies down to the sand in relief.
In hindsight she realized it may have been more effective to kidnap a girl scout as numerous unsuccessful attempts at starting a fire had come and gone. She opted to take a break and enjoy viewing the sunset when her frustration with the fire-starting reached a peak. It was difficult for Camila to remember the last time she let herself get lost in the beauty of her landscape, and in a way it helped relax her mind away from thoughts about the reason she came out there in the first place.
As the last visible piece of the sun dwindled away from view, Camila returned her attention toward the unlit logs and the unzipped backpack lazily tossed a few feet away. It was barely visible at that point, so she broke the “no cell phone” policy she intended to enforce in order to use her flashlight app. Unfortunately, breaking this rule meant she saw she had received a text from her second least favorite person in that moment, and her level of restraint to prevent her from reading it was minimal to none once she knew it was there.
“Thx, Camz! After the date’s set I can send you an invite. Is your parents’ address ok? It’d be good to c u. Matthew is welcome as your +1, ofc. :)”
Camila took a deep breath as she flipped her phone over so the screen was facing away from her again, against her leg. Lauren wasn’t her friend anymore, far from it, but enough time had lapsed that they could be civil enough to acknowledge each other when congratulations were in order. Ty had apparently proposed to Lauren a while ago, but the media somehow didn’t catch on before the couple chose to announce it themselves on Instagram a few hours before Camila’s escape to the beach.
It had been barely tens minutes after Camila read the announcement and found the courage to text Lauren her well wishes about the news that her boyfriend, Matthew, requested to FaceTime from overseas. He told her he wanted to take a break because of their disagreement over when to have children. He explained how he needed time to think about whether he could wait as much time as Camila needed to ride the wave of her current career success. Although she recognized that the pressure to start a family was a risk that could come from dating a significantly older man, it didn’t occur to her the topic would be pressed as soon as it was. This “break” seemed more like an ultimatum, so she decided on a whim that if her relationship was going to burn to ashes, then so too would the evidence of all the emotions past loves have made her feel.
Camila flipped her phone back over with every intention of going straight to the flashlight, but she felt a tug in her gut that told her to send a response to Lauren’s text first.
“The address here (Miami) is fine. But if I don’t have a +1 anymore, am I still invited?”
She felt stupid the moment she hit send, as her response was practically begging for questions, yet a part of her truly was curious if being in a relationship made her presence in Lauren’s life less awkward now. Rather than waste time obsessing over receiving a response, Camila tapped on the YouTube app and resorted to searching “how to build a lasting fire.” She had begun taking mental notes from the video she selected when a “ding” indicating a new text message interrupted.
“Here? Are you in Miami RN 2?”
‘Too? Oh no..’ Camila thought to herself as she reread the text to be sure. Lauren spent so much downtime in LA last she checked (not that she was keeping tabs or anything). It didn’t even occur to her they could both be in Miami at the same time.
“Yeah 4 1 wk. U?”
Camila barely had a chance to re-open the video before receiving another text alert.
“I fly back to LA tmrw. Want to grab a drink 2night?”
Camila felt her heart rate increase at the suggestion. Last time they intentionally spent time together she hadn’t been old enough to go out for a drink in the states, not that her celebrity status couldn’t have gotten her around that. What would Lauren think of her now? Sure, she had proven herself in the industry despite the controversy surrounding her exit from a group that had since gone on hiatus, but what would Lauren say to the scene that was laid out before her on the beach? What would she make of Camila aimlessly sitting in the sand beside notebooks filled with her most private thoughts, lyrics, and ideas, one of which was exclusively filled with content related to once loving the woman in question?
“I’m @ the beach.”
It wasn’t a direct invitation for Lauren to join her, but it may as well have been. It certainly wasn’t an outright rejection to meeting up either.
“What part? Is any1 else w/ u? I can meet u there.”
Camila sent a text back with more specific details about her location based on where she had parked, after which Lauren had announced that she would “see her soon & bring some treats.” Camila didn’t waste anymore time preparing the fire, as anxiety about the situation to come gradually crept up on her. The last thing she wanted to admit upon their reunion was how pathetic she was at something as simple as building a campfire, so she was determined to have it going strong before Lauren’s arrival.
It slipped Camila’s mind to conceal the contents of the backpack before it was too late. A noticeable figure was approaching her location quickly, and whether it was Lauren or a stranger out for blood, she wasn’t certain she wouldn’t die either way. To the relief of millions of fans worldwide, it was in fact Lauren who eventually came into full view and not a random sociopath excited to claim their next victim.
“I remember when you used to be afraid of wandering alone in the dark,” Lauren reminisced aloud as she retrieved a bottle of Grey Goose from a bag she had been carrying.
“Who’s to say that isn’t still true? Some emotions overpower fear depending on the circumstances,” Camila countered before gesturing toward the liquor. “Is that standard for celebrating an engagement?”
Lauren took a seat beside Camila in the sand, being sure to keep a safe distance from the fire that was finally burning properly.
“Probably not, but it’s good enough to celebrate being two people who are catching up after going through shit. Besides, Ty and I celebrated the engagement properly right after it happened.”
Lauren took a decent-sized swig directly from the bottle before offering it to Camila. Camila didn’t hesitate to accept, although she stuck to a more manageable sip. She was a lightweight and knew better than to start off with too much, too fast.
“Congrats again, by the way. Marriage is a big step. How’d you know you were ready?”
Camila knew it was a heavy question, but the way they used to be never involved treading lightly.
Lauren took another sip from the bottle and shrugged.
“It’s so rare to find someone who supports you for you, for everything you are, and everything you stand for despite all the noise in the world trying to sell us a false image of what perfect people and perfect love should be. Ty has never tried to change me. He understands nobody ever could.”
Camila pondered Lauren’s response carefully, before settling on a nod followed by a much bigger gulp of the vodka than she intended.
“Matthew wants me to stop taking birth control,” Camila blurted before the more reserved part of her brain could censor the thought from spilling out.
Lauren’s eyes widened noticeably before she tried to play it off by digging a small hole in the sand to store the bottle in temporarily.
“Wow,” is all Lauren managed to reply, taking the time to let it sink in where they both were with their lives now compared to when they had been close.
“Today he asked for us to 'take a break’ because the last time we saw each other we argued about it, and I guess it’s giving him second thoughts about me.”
Camila reached across Lauren to retrieve the liquor bottle and take another gulp, only wincing a little as she underestimated how the amount consumed would burn on the way down.
Lauren had to bite her tongue to the point of almost drawing blood to stop herself from saying something she’d regret. It wasn’t her place to judge someone’s relationship. She hated when it happened to her, and happen it did…almost constantly.
Lauren settled on her first question carefully.
“Are you having second thoughts about him?”
“I’m having second thoughts about everyone I’ve loved and everything I’ve felt,” Camila confessed as she gestured toward the now-scattered collection of notebooks almost forgotten against the sand. “I’m always preaching about love to my fans and how much it has inspired my music and who I claim myself to be. But what if I’m a fraud? Do I have it all wrong? If love is what inspires my music, but being in love is also what’s going to force me to take a break from music, then what am I really doing here?”
A single tear escaped from Camila’s left eye and out of instinct Lauren pulled their bodies together into a hug. Camila could feel herself calming down from the embrace, so she laid her head against Lauren’s shoulder and allowed the contact to continue despite their history and how it should make her wary of sharing physical affection.
“Did you write about me?” Lauren whispered against Camila’s head, although she knew from listening to all of her music that she unmistakeably had.
Camila pulled away from Lauren and bent over to retrieve a bright blue spiral with several doodles and scratches along the cover.
“Almost every day until there was no room left to cram anything else in here,” Camila explained while holding up what they would suspect to be the most condemning item proving there had once been more than friendship between the two of them while they were still band mates.
Lauren looked across the fire, toward the ocean, as she motioned for Camila to put the notebook back down beside them.
“I don’t need to read that to know that everything described in it was real, because I lived it, too. I felt it. All of it. I broke both of our hearts, because I thought it was necessary, and that’s one of the most naive things I’ve ever believed, apart from thinking that signing that goddamned contract after The X Factor without proper representation was a solid idea.”
In the midst of painful memories, Camila still managed to crack a smile at the cheap shot Lauren took at the paperwork that guaranteed the beginning of their careers. It had been a disaster, but it launched them all into a level of spotlight they needed in order to land where they were in present day, despite the hardships.
“I don’t blame you anymore. But you know me…when I close a door, I slam it. So that meant finding a way to forgive and forget even if the wound was still fresh at the time I decided to put it behind me. Now here I am out here preparing to burn all these memories I already put energy into mentally blocking.”
“You didn’t successfully conceal everything, Camz. 'I Have Questions’ wasn’t exactly subtle. I had to block so many accounts after you released that song.”
Camila nodded in understanding as she picked the notebook back up and flipped to the approximate page where she knew some of the original IHQ lyrics could be found.
“The version that got released was tame compared to how it all started.”
Lauren accepted the notebook this time and glanced over the page presented carefully.
She slowly read through one of the rough verses:
“How could you turn your back on me
Leave me helpless when I was already weak
I imagined pictures of our future
As I would lie awake in bed
But they blurred out of focus
as you eagerly erased our past”
“Why didn’t that make the final cut?”
“It alludes to romantic feelings, and the final version was spun so I could play it off like the relationship could have been platonic.”
“Kind of how I spun our relationship to seem platonic?”
“Pretty much exactly like that.”
Lauren continued to read the rest of the page, front and back, silently while Camila got lost in thought.
“I should have asked if you had any memories you wanted to bring and burn,” Camila said, breaking the silence casually.
“You’re not really going to burn this one, are you?”
Lauren looked conflicted at the thought of letting it go, although so far she had only read lyrics to the one song.
“I was going to burn the pages from that one first, actually.”
“Why?”
“You’re engaged. Not only is that door slammed shut, but it should be locked, bolted, and probably guarded by a three-headed dog on the other side,” Camila joked, although her tone didn’t convey that she really felt the humor.
“I was thinking though. If things don’t work out with Matthew, you could safely revisit some of your lyrics about heartbreak, and nobody but you and I would ever be any the wiser that someone else inspired them.”
“It almost sounds like you’d prefer if things didn’t work out with Matthew,” Camila accused with a raised eyebrow.
“That’s not true. The only relationship of yours I’ve ever tried to control was ours, and seeing how poorly I handled that one, I’d never try to interfere with others.”
“To be honest with you, one of the notebooks I brought here does have stuff inspired by him, and I was planning to burn it tonight, too.”
“Well then, the only proper way to handle a break up is with a ton of dessert!” Lauren remarked enthusiastically as she pulled s'mores ingredients out of the bag the Grey Goose had been in earlier.
“If I did get pregnant I could eat as many s'mores as I wanted and nobody would even bat an eyelash,” Camila pondered as she grabbed one of the marshmallow roasting sticks.
Lauren rolled her eyes as she pulled open the box of graham crackers and tore the plastic holding one set of the crackers apart.
“That doesn’t sound like break up talk to me. But leave it to you to consider food as the primary pro of being knocked up.”
“Ugh, I hate when people refer to pregnancy that way. It makes it sound like…scandalous? Or something. We’re adults. The process of growing and birthing a new life is beautiful. We should refer to it in a way that respects women who are becoming mothers.”
“Maybe we should have drank more. You are still way too articulate right now.”
“You used to be able to handle spending time with me sober,” Camila reminded Lauren as she crushed her first marshmallow and chocolate between two graham crackers in delight.
“I also remember that I had many other, effective ways of shutting you up, all of which are off limits now,” Lauren added with a smirk as she completed her own s'more and prepared to take her first bite.
“Watch it, Jauregui. That was suspiciously close to flirting.”
Camila moaned in satisfaction as she finished the last few bites of her s'more, before reaching for another marshmallow.
“Watch it, Cabello. Sounds like that are suspiciously close to teasing.”
Camila took her marshmallow stick away from the fire to jab it toward Lauren’s neck threateningly before returning it to the best part of the fire to get the desired marshmallow texture.
“That could have burned me, you know? And I bet the mark would look pretty similar to a hickey.”
“I guess we’d have to hook up then to not waste the accusations of cheating on false evidence.”
Lauren nearly choked on the piece of chocolate she had begun nibbling on as she waited for her next marshmallow to be melted.
“Camz, you can’t say shit like that. Fuck.”
Lauren unexpectedly picked up the Grey Goose bottle and took two big gulps, clearly seeking to become more intoxicated.
“You’re right. That crossed a line. Ty would definitely take me off the wedding invitation list if he knew I never got over you. If he even knew there was something to get over.”
“He knows. We asked each other about our longest, previous relationship and what we would have done differently to make it last. I started to talk about Lucy at first, but then I realized depending on where you start our time line, we were in love much longer. Just because we hesitated to define the relationship doesn’t mean it shouldn’t have counted.”
“I’m surprised you’re not more freaked out by me still having feelings for you. I’m also curious what your answer was.”
Lauren and Camila laid out beside each other on Camila’s blanket after each having consumed three s'mores, washed down with more vodka. They both felt lighter from the effects of the alcohol, and although it was cooling down quite a bit, they welcomed the breeze as they looked up at the stars.
“Neither of us received closure the way I ended it, Camz. That’s why our feelings aren’t resolved. Just because we’ve moved on and love other people now, too, doesn’t mean that we bumped our heads and forgot what it felt like to be in love with each other.”
“Wow, and Ty knows all this?”
Lauren rolled onto her side facing Camila and kept her head propped up with her elbow.
“Yes. What I told him I would have done differently about our relationship is one of two things. Either I would have come clean about it to everyone and tried to salvage it despite the pressure from management to tone it down, or I would have at the very least attempted to find closure once I knew you were leaving the band instead of shutting you out. Ty knows I’m with you tonight and he isn’t worried about it.”
Camila rolled onto her side opposite Lauren, bringing their bodies much closer to one another.
“He should worry,” Camila admitted as her eyes looked back and forth between Lauren’s eyes and Lauren’s lips.
“Why?”
“You know why,” Camila insisted as she leaned in close enough that Lauren could feel her breath on her cheek.
“Yeah, I know,” Lauren agreed softly as she closed the gap between them and let their lips meet for the first time in more than two years. It started out tentative, but Camila pressed back a little rougher to deepen the kiss and sighed soon after when Lauren pulled back slightly to disconnect their lips and look her in the eyes.
“You and Matthew are on a break for sure, right?”
Camila gave a quick nod in confirmation.
“So there’s no reason to feel guilty for what I’m about to do, right?” Lauren pressed one more time.
Camila reached out her hand to Lauren’s face and stroked her right check with her thumb as she pulled her back in closer. Camila proceeded to address Lauren softly.
“Tonight we’re burning memories. Nothing that happens on this beach will be carried into tomorrow unless we both agree. Don’t worry about whether this begins or ends a chapter for us. Just stay in the moment with me and see where it leads.”
Lauren showed no more hesitation as she closed the gap between them once again and they made a silent pact to let their hearts lead.
AN: I wrote my stress away until 4am and this is the product of that decision. After the longest writer’s block of my life I just needed something to come out. Thank you for reading. [I have also published this on Wattpad].
