JUZ 6-LESSONS FROM SURAH AN-NISA & AL-MAIDAH

¶ LESSONS FROM SURAH AN-NISA

- Allah does not like the public mention of evil except by one who has been wronged. (see 4:148)

EXAMPLES OF PUBLIC MENTION OF EVIL

Gossips

Accusations

Backbiting

Slander

Mockery

Du'a against someone

Rude comments

Dishonoring someone

• Protect other people's honor. Do not bad mouth them.

• Don't abuse your spouse in front of others (whether you are still married or now divorced). Mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law, please don't abuse one another. Forgive one another for the sake of Allah SWT. Make du'as to Him to reconcile your matters (ameen). Parents don't abuse your children.

If you conceal the faults and wrongdoings of others, then Allah SWT will conceal your faults and wrongdoings on the Day of Judgment.

It is not our job to point out the shortcomings in others. Learn to control your tongue. If you expose others then Allah SWT will expose you. So scary!

➖ASK YOURSELF

Did my words heal someone today or did they cause hurt and pain?

• The situations when it is permissible to say something evil:

When someone has been oppressed

When someone has to defend themselves

Inform someone to get help

- When someone does something wrong to us what is our reaction? Take revenge? Forgive? Forgive and forget? Do ehsaan?

Allah SWT says: If you show good or conceal it or pardon an offense - indeed, Allah is ever Pardoning and Competent. (see 4:149)

- Honor your contracts - when you agree to do something then do it

- If you learn about a command from the Qur'an or Sunnah but your heart is not moved to act on it ASAP then ask Allah SWT to remove the barrier from your heart. Not being motivated to act is a sign that perhaps your heart has been sealed.

- Don't do zulm or else you will be deprived of Allah's blessings

➖Qualities of those firm in knowledge

• Constantly engaged in learning

• Constant reflection on the Ayaat of Allah SWT (Qur'an and creation)

• They know the depths of the religion

➖ASK YOURSELF

Do I have knowledge of the Deen or am I just a Muslim by title?

When will I gain knowledge of the Deen?

¶ LESSONS FROM SURAH AL-MAIDAH

Do not commit excess in religion.

Do not follow innovations.

When someone tells you to do something in Deen verify it from the Qur'an and Sunnah. If there is no evidence, then leave it.

Why do we tell lies about Allah SWT, when we hate to hear lies about ourselves?

If Allah SWT didn't command us to do something, if Rasoolullah SA didn't inform us, if the Sahabah RA never did it, then we don't do it either. We hold on to the Qur'an and Sunnah.

- The Qur'an is conclusive proof and a clear light sent down by Allah SWT for us. How can we get light if we don't study and understand the Qur'an?

- Eat halal and tayyab

- Wudhu (ablution) is a mean of drawing closer to Allah SWT. Develop the habit of being in this state all the time or at least most of the time. Go to sleep in the state of ablution so that the angels can make dua for your forgiveness the entire night. If you wake up in the middle of the night and make dua, it has a high chance of being accepted.

He says: Allah does not intend to make difficulty for you, but He intends to purify you and complete His favor upon you that you may be grateful. (5:6)

- Help one another in good deeds, do not help one another in sins. If you don't want to go to the masjid or attend a Qur'an class, don't stop or discourage others. If your friends stop you from getting closer to Allah SWT or make fun of you, then you need to change your company.

Ask Allah SWT for righteous companions, righteous spouses and righteous children - those who help you excel in Deen (ameen).

- When you are confused in a matter then ask Allah SWT to guide you according to the Qur'an and to remove the doubt from your heart, to make you certain and steadfast in Deen and in knowledge. Ask Him to guide you from the "darknesses" to light.

- O you who have believed, be persistently standing firm for Allah, witnesses in justice, and do not let the hatred of a people prevent you from being just. Be just; that is nearer to righteousness. (5:8)

Support the right thing and be fair, no matter who is doing it. Do not support a brother only because they are your brother. See, if they are also doing the right thing. Advice them with wisdom.

- Don't say no to a good opportunity or delay a good deed. Ask Allah SWT to make you of those who are "greedy" for Jannah. And this is what they compete in.

- O you who have believed, fear Allah and seek the means [of nearness] to Him and strive in His cause that you may succeed. (5:35)

- A Muslim takes no interest in listening to falsehood and unlawful speech. Turn away from such company. Watch your tongue. Protect your ears and hearts. Don't forward such e-mails or text messages either.

"Three things will increase your intellect: sitting with the scholars, sitting with righteous people, and leaving off speech that doesn't concern you." - Imam Shaafi

• மற்றவர்களின் கௌரவத்தைப் பாதுகாக்கவும். அவர்களிடம் கெட்ட வாய் பேசாதீர்கள்.

• உங்கள் மனைவியை மற்றவர்கள் முன்னிலையில் துஷ்பிரயோகம் செய்யாதீர்கள் (நீங்கள் இன்னும் திருமணமானவராக இருந்தாலும் அல்லது விவாகரத்து பெற்றவராக இருந்தாலும் சரி). மாமியார் மற்றும் மருமகள், தயவுசெய்து ஒருவரையொருவர் துஷ்பிரயோகம் செய்யாதீர்கள். அல்லாஹ்வுக்காக ஒருவரையொருவர் மன்னியுங்கள் SWT. உங்கள் விஷயங்களைச் சீர்செய்ய அவரிடம் துஆ செய்யுங்கள் (ஆமீன்). பெற்றோர்கள் உங்கள் குழந்தைகளை துஷ்பிரயோகம் செய்ய வேண்டாம்.

மற்றவர்களின் தவறுகளையும் தவறுகளையும் நீங்கள் மறைத்தால், மறுமை நாளில் அல்லாஹ் உங்கள் தவறுகளையும் தவறுகளையும் மறைப்பான்.

மற்றவர்களிடம் உள்ள குறைகளைச் சுட்டிக் காட்டுவது நம் வேலையல்ல. உங்கள் நாக்கை கட்டுப்படுத்த கற்றுக்கொள்ளுங்கள். நீங்கள் மற்றவர்களை அம்பலப்படுத்தினால் அல்லாஹ் SWT உங்களை அம்பலப்படுத்துவான். மிகவும் பயமாக இருக்கிறது!

➖உங்களை நீங்களே கேட்டுக்கொள்ளுங்கள்

இன்று என் வார்த்தைகள் யாரையாவது குணப்படுத்தியதா அல்லது அவை காயத்தையும் வலியையும் ஏற்படுத்தியதா?

• தீயதைச் சொல்ல அனுமதிக்கப்படும் சூழ்நிலைகள்:

யாராவது ஒடுக்கப்பட்டபோது, யாராவது தங்களைத் தற்காத்துக் கொள்ள வேண்டியிருக்கும் போது, உதவி பெற யாருக்காவது தெரிவிக்கவும்

- யாராவது நமக்கு ஏதாவது தவறு செய்தால், நமது எதிர்வினை என்ன? பழிவாங்கு? மன்னிக்கவா? மன்னித்து மறப்பதா? எஹ்சான் செய்யவா?

அல்லாஹ் SWT கூறுகிறான்: நீங்கள் நல்லதைக் காட்டினால் அல்லது அதை மறைத்தால் அல்லது குற்றத்தை மன்னித்தால் - நிச்சயமாக, அல்லாஹ் எப்போதும் மன்னிப்பவனாகவும் திறமையானவனாகவும் இருக்கிறான். (பார்க்க 4:149)

- நீங்கள் குர்ஆன் அல்லது சுன்னாவிலிருந்து ஒரு கட்டளையைப் பற்றி அறிந்து கொண்டால், உங்கள் இதயம் விரைவில் அதைச் செயல்படுத்தத் தூண்டவில்லை என்றால், உங்கள் இதயத்திலிருந்து தடையை அகற்ற அல்லாஹ் SWT கேளுங்கள். செயல்பட தூண்டப்படாமல் இருப்பது உங்கள் இதயம் சீல் வைக்கப்பட்டிருக்கலாம் என்பதற்கான அறிகுறியாகும்.

- ஜுல்ம் செய்யாதீர்கள், இல்லையெனில் அல்லாஹ்வின் அருட்கொடைகளை இழக்க நேரிடும்

➖அறிவில் உறுதியானவர்களின் குணங்கள்

எனக்கு தீன் பற்றிய அறிவு இருக்கிறதா அல்லது நான் ஒரு முஸ்லிமா?

தீன் பற்றிய அறிவை நான் எப்போது பெறுவேன்?

¶ சூரா அல்-மைதாவிலிருந்து பாடங்கள்

மதத்தில் அளவுக்கதிகமாகச் செயல்படாதீர்கள். புதுமைகளைப் பின்பற்றாதீர்கள்.

யாராவது தீனில் ஏதாவது செய்யச் சொன்னால் அதை குர்ஆன் மற்றும் சுன்னாவிலிருந்து சரிபார்க்கவும். ஆதாரம் இல்லை என்றால் விட்டுவிடுங்கள்.

நம்மைப் பற்றிய பொய்களைக் கேட்பதை வெறுக்கும் நாம் ஏன் அல்லாஹ்வைப் பற்றி பொய் சொல்கிறோம்?

அல்லாஹ் SWT நமக்கு ஏதாவது செய்யுமாறு கட்டளையிடவில்லை என்றால், ரசூலுல்லாஹ் SA நமக்குத் தெரிவிக்கவில்லை என்றால், சஹாபாக்கள் அதை ஒருபோதும் செய்யவில்லை என்றால், நாமும் அதைச் செய்ய மாட்டோம். நாங்கள் குர்ஆன் மற்றும் சுன்னாவைக் கடைப்பிடிக்கிறோம்.

- குர்ஆன் உறுதியான ஆதாரம் மற்றும் அல்லாஹ் நமக்கு அனுப்பிய தெளிவான ஒளி. குர்ஆனைப் படித்துப் புரிந்து கொள்ளாவிட்டால் நமக்கு எப்படி வெளிச்சம் கிடைக்கும்?

- ஹலால் மற்றும் தய்யாப் சாப்பிடுங்கள்

- வுது (சுத்தம்) என்பது அல்லாஹ்வை நெருங்கி வருவதற்கான வழிமுறையாகும். எல்லா நேரத்திலும் அல்லது குறைந்தபட்சம் பெரும்பாலான நேரமாவது இந்த நிலையில் இருக்கும் பழக்கத்தை வளர்த்துக் கொள்ளுங்கள். மலக்குகள் உங்கள் மன்னிப்புக்காக இரவு முழுவதும் துவா செய்யும்படி கழுவும் நிலையில் தூங்கச் செல்லுங்கள். நள்ளிரவில் எழுந்து துஆ செய்தால் அது ஏற்றுக்கொள்ளப்படும் வாய்ப்பு அதிகம்.

அவர் கூறுகிறார்: அல்லாஹ் உங்களுக்கு சிரமத்தை ஏற்படுத்த விரும்பவில்லை, ஆனால் நீங்கள் நன்றியுள்ளவர்களாக இருப்பதற்காக உங்களைத் தூய்மைப்படுத்தி உங்கள் மீது தனது அருட்கொடையைப் பூர்த்தி செய்ய விரும்புகிறான். (5:6)

- நல்ல செயல்களில் ஒருவருக்கொருவர் உதவுங்கள், பாவங்களில் ஒருவருக்கொருவர் உதவாதீர்கள். நீங்கள் மஸ்ஜிதுக்குச் செல்லவோ அல்லது குர்ஆன் வகுப்பில் கலந்துகொள்ளவோ ​​விரும்பவில்லை என்றால், மற்றவர்களை நிறுத்தவோ ஊக்கப்படுத்தவோ வேண்டாம். உங்கள் நண்பர்கள் உங்களை அல்லாஹ்வை நெருங்கவிடாமல் தடுத்தால் அல்லது உங்களை கேலி செய்தால், நீங்கள் உங்கள் நிறுவனத்தை மாற்ற வேண்டும்.

நீதியுள்ள தோழர்கள், நீதியுள்ள வாழ்க்கைத் துணைவர்கள் மற்றும் நீதியுள்ள குழந்தைகளுக்காக அல்லாஹ்விடம் கேளுங்கள் (ஆமீன்).

- நீங்கள் ஒரு விஷயத்தில் குழப்பமடைந்தால், குர்ஆனின்படி உங்களை வழிநடத்தவும், உங்கள் இதயத்திலிருந்து சந்தேகத்தை நீக்கவும், உங்களைத் தீனிலும் அறிவிலும் உறுதியாகவும் உறுதியுடனும் செய்ய அல்லாஹ் SWTயிடம் கேளுங்கள். "இருட்டில்" இருந்து வெளிச்சத்திற்கு உங்களை வழிநடத்த அவரிடம் கேளுங்கள்.

- ஓ ஈமான் கொண்டவர்களே, அல்லாஹ்வுக்காக விடாமுயற்சியுடன் உறுதியாக இருங்கள், நீதியின் சாட்சிகளாக இருங்கள், மேலும் ஒரு மக்களின் வெறுப்பு உங்களை நீதியாக இருந்து தடுக்க வேண்டாம். நியாயமாக இருங்கள்; அது நீதிக்கு நெருக்கமானது. (5:8)

யார் செய்தாலும் சரியானதை ஆதரித்து நியாயமாக நடந்து கொள்ளுங்கள். உங்கள் சகோதரன் என்பதற்காக மட்டும் ஒரு சகோதரனை ஆதரிக்காதீர்கள். அவர்களும் சரியானதைச் செய்கிறார்களா என்று பாருங்கள். புத்திசாலித்தனமாக அவர்களுக்கு அறிவுரை கூறுங்கள்.

- நல்ல வாய்ப்பை வேண்டாம் என்று சொல்லாதீர்கள் அல்லது நல்ல செயலை தாமதப்படுத்தாதீர்கள். ஜன்னாவுக்கு "பேராசை" உள்ளவர்களில் உங்களை ஆக்குமாறு அல்லாஹ் SWTயிடம் கேளுங்கள். மேலும் இதில்தான் அவர்கள் போட்டியிடுகிறார்கள்.

- ஈமான் கொண்டவர்களே, அல்லாஹ்வை அஞ்சுங்கள் மற்றும் அவனிடம் [அருகிலுள்ள] வழிகளைத் தேடுங்கள் மேலும் நீங்கள் வெற்றி பெறுவதற்காக அவனுடைய வழியில் பாடுபடுங்கள். (5:35)

- ஒரு முஸ்லீம் பொய் மற்றும் சட்டவிரோதமான பேச்சுகளைக் கேட்பதில் ஆர்வம் காட்டுவதில்லை. அத்தகைய நிறுவனத்திலிருந்து விலகிச் செல்லுங்கள். உங்கள் நாக்கைப் பாருங்கள். உங்கள் காதுகளையும் இதயங்களையும் பாதுகாக்கவும். அத்தகைய மின்னஞ்சல்கள் அல்லது குறுஞ்செய்திகளை அனுப்ப வேண்டாம்.

What can she do to get rid of it ?

Assalamu Alaikum

Yes it may happen. These things will create problem but if something is meant to happen; it will happen. It can be jin and also black magic. Some magics are done with the help of jin. I don't know the exact situation but if your mother follow the following instructions. It will help your mother in shaa Allah. So be in His rememberance; only Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala can protect her. Abstain from haram things when we have low eman; it will have more effect. Following are some acts that will help her in shaa Allah

1) Fix your prayers; don’t leave salah.

“Recite what has been revealed to you of the Book, and perform the Salah. Verily, the Salah prevents from Al-Fahsha’ (immoral sins) and Al-Munkar (evil deeds) and the remembering (praising) of Allah is greater indeed. And Allah knows what you do.”

Surah Al-Ankaboot (29:45)

2) Implement sunnah in your life. Must read dua before going to the toilet.

It was narrated from Zayd ibn Arqam (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “These toilets are haunted (inhabited by devils), so when anyone of you goes to the toilet let him say, ‘A’oodhu Billaahi min al-khubthi wa’l-khabaa’ith (I seek refuge Allaah from the male and female devils).” Narrated by Abu Dawood, 6; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh Abi Dawood.

3) If ever one fears any evil from any quarter, the guidance of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) dictates that one recite the Muawwidhaat (Surahs 113 Al-Falaq and 114 An-Naas), seeking refuge and putting their complete trust and faith in the Power and Strength and Protection of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala Alone; it is expected that their Lord Most High will protect them from any and all evil, and no evil or harm will be able to approach them from any quarter.

Al-Tirmidhi Hadith 4563        Narrated by Abu Sa’id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him)

Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) used to seek refuge in Allah from jinn and the evil eye in men till the Mu’awwidhatan (Surah 113 Al-Falaq and Surah 114 An-Naas) were revealed, after which he (peace be upon him) made use of them and abandoned everything else.

The practice of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) was to recite the Surah Al-Ikhlas, Surah Al-Falaq, and Surah An-Naas at least three times in the mornings and the evenings, and also when he (peace be upon him) retired for the night to sleep…..

Abdallah b. Habib reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “Speak.” I asked, “O Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), what should I say?” He (peace be upon him) replied, “Recite Surat Al-Ikhlas, and the two last Surahs (i.e. Surah al-Falaq and Surah an-Nas) in the morning and evening three times, and it will suffice you for everything.”

4) Recite surah baqara last two ayah before sleeping.

In a hadith narrated by Abu Mas’ud, the Prophet (ﷺ) said, “If somebody recited the last two Verses of Surat Al-Baqara at night, that will be sufficient for him.” (Bukhari)

5) Recite “Hasbunallahu wa Ni’mal Wakeel” all the time

“Allah (Alone) is Sufficient for us, and He is the Best Disposer of affairs (for us).”Surah Al ‘Imran (3:173)

Ibn ‘Abbas (May Allah be pleased with them) said: When (Prophet) Ibraheem(عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّم) was thrown into the fire, he said: “Allah (Alone) is sufficient for us, and, He is the Best Disposer of affairs.” So did Messenger of Allah, Muhammad (ﷺ), when he was told: “A great army of the pagans had gathered against him, so fear them”. But this (warning) only increased him and the Muslims in Faith and they said: “Allah (Alone) is sufficient for us, and He is the Best Disposer of affairs (for us)”. [Al-Bukhari].

6) Recite surah kausar when you feel black magic/jin symptoms.

7) Recite ya qaharroo; its the name of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. 11 hundred times in fajr and in magrib with 11 times salawat in begining and in the end. (This was told by the imam for the black magic and jin)

8) Recite this dua 7 times in morning and in evening time and if possible all the time.

May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala make things easier for her.

Allahumma Ameen

Take a Selfie, Fake a Life ♡ Park Jimin x Reader

Pairing: Jimin x Reader Genre: PURE fluff (like, really) and a pinch of angst  Word Count: 3.2k  Warnings: Jimin is a broken boy, parents divorce, bi Jimin (thats not a warning but he does kinda unintentionally come out and is afraid) Summary: Park Jimin is most probably the most popular guy on campus, top student, dancing extraordinaire, Instagram star, except there is no depth to his life at all. There is only so much a camera lens can capture. A/N: Hello. I didn’t intend on writing this as it came out. I have a severe case of writers block in the middle of a depressive episode but nevertheless I liked how it turned out. Please enjoy!

Everybody knows Park Jimin. Even if they don’t, everyone has heard of Park Jimin. That’s the first thing you come to learn in your first year in college.

Truth be told, you first encounter Jimin during some maths class when you were both fifteen. It wasn’t exactly your class, but the school had decided to hold an academic competition and you just so happened to run against perfect scholar Park Jimin, head of the student council, first place in the semestral talent show and prom king two times in a row. 

All it took for you to break down his perfect facade was some stupid trigonometry question and being a mere two seconds faster at answering it than him. 

News flash: Park Jimin was not the perfect student he appeared to be. 

To say that you became non-existent to him was an understatement, he had somehow recovered from the slip two months later by becoming first place on a national elite math competition.

Not that you paid much attention to his life, but it was somehow hard to miss as years went by and he became a regular topic on campus while on college. Everybody knows Park Jimin. Even if they don’t, everyone has heard of Park Jimin. 

It was indeed hard to miss the hallway gossiping about how Park Jimin turned down Korea’s National Ballet, or how Park Jimin just got a whole another thousand followers on his Instagram because he made it into yesterday’s Dua Lipa’s Instagram story while both of them were in some exclusive bar, but you’ve come to know better than base your opinions on said man because of his social media, there is only so much a camera lens can capture; even after his unmentioned cold shoulder of five years, you had come to be a first-hand witness to his parents’ daily fights just outside your bedroom window, leading to their divorce and Jimin’s’ signature house parties just hours after he had cried himself to sleep; it wasn’t that you were nosy, but some things were just hard to miss. 

The shrine in which Park Jimin had found himself making a new home after leaving the one beside your own, the one that everybody had him on and paid their respects blinded by follower numbers on screen and price tags on the outfits he wore to school were all made of lies. 

To put it simply, Park Jimin’s life was utter bullshit but you seemed to be the only one completely aware of it.

“I could maybe, you know, talk to him for you if you’d like” Taehyung suggested as you both waited for your respective drinks after the partner lists for the campus seminar came out from the dean’s office, Park Jimin, Y/LN Y/N printed on the second to last sheet of paper, just above the terms and conditions of no change under any circumstances.

“Tae, I have no problem talking to him, really, he just likes to pretend like I don’t even exist” you said to your friend as he made a face that you knew was his way of asking for more information on the topic, a topic which you had been avoiding for the last year since you had told him you shared a past with the guy “I guess I’ll just drop by his dorm once classes are over, then he’ll just have to talk to me”

“Come on, Y/N-ie, just tell me already… did you guys used to date?” 

“You’re his friend, why don’t you pester him with these questions instead of me?” you retorted as you passed him his drink and took a sip out of yours, grimacing at the temperature of it

“I tried,” he said “But he denies even knowing you” 

You hum in acknowledgement as you both begin walking out of the café, your phone dinging as a way to let you know that you had a new notification on your social media, a message request from non-other than the devil himself, Jimin.

“Hey so, we’ll catch up later yeah?” Tae says, stopping while you still have your phone in hand “Let me know how it goes with your ex-boyfriend!”

“He’s not my ex!” you shout at him but he is already dashing down the sidewalk, opposite to you.

Jimin [just now]: hey Jimin [just now]: drop by my dorm in 10 You [just now]: oh wow, he talks! You [just now]: why don’t you drop by my dorm in 10 Jimin [just now]: I have an image to take care of, Y/N You [just now]: well so do I You [just now]: let’s meet at the library in 10 Jimin [just now]: fine.

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───

“You know, you could at least abid to common etiquette and take your glasses off while we’re in the library,” you said as you continued tapping on your computer as a good five minutes went by after Jimin made it half an hour late to your study date “Plus, it’s rude from you to turn away while I’m talking to you”

“Just go on about what I should do for the project and I’ll make sure to deliver it before the deadline” 

“And here I thought you actually deserved the valedictorian from high school,” you said as you closed your laptop and pressed your hands together in a sarcastic manner before exhaling heavily “Just tell me already what your problem with me is, we’ll work it out before beginning the project”

Silence took over the table for a few seconds before someone walked up to him and they greeted each other exchanging a few words and you just smiled their way “I don’t know what you’re talking about”

“Square up, Park. We’ll either talk it out or we’ll punch each other until it all goes away”

“Listen just- let’s get this over with so we can go back to pretending we don’t know each other” 

A few days after your first meeting in the library, things slowly started to work since you had accidentally dm him a meme that was meant for Taehyung, now working together through a shared drive and a few other meetings in the library when you both had time off after classes.

You were slowly woken from your sleep as a faint knocking sound kept lingering from somewhere, turning on your bed to look at your phone that signalled 2:23 am, you made your way to your dorm door, peaking through the peephole to see none other than Jimin waiting outside, dishevelled hair, oversized hoodie and laptop in hand.

“What the fuck are you doing here?” you hissed at him as your eyes tried to shield out the light coming from the hall “Do you even know what time it is?”

“Hello to you too, Y/N,” he said as he took a seat on the small desk chair beside your bed “I just had this idea stuck in my head for the project” 

“And it couldn’t have waited, I don’t know, until the morning?” 

“Not really” he turned to face his laptop as he began explaining out his idea to you, your mind not really processing the words that left his mouth but fixating on his face instead, from the way he stopped whatever he was saying every few seconds to lick his plump lips, to how his eyes shined with bright interest as his hands emphasised his words, a soft aura around him that made you wonder if you were to capture the moment, it would stand out from any other pic he currently had on his feed, even when in sweats and dark circles around his eyes, this was the first time you had truly seen Park Jimin shining because of who he was in the moment rather than who he was trying to be.

Your eyes shot open and your heart skipped a few beats as you felt an unfamiliar weight above your middle as you turned to be face to face with the owner of the hand that held you cuddled close, the same soft aura surrounding him as your mind once again wandered off; even though your relationship with Jimin was difficult and borderline uncomfortable as it was, over the days it had somehow become weirder, no doubt more uncomfortable now that you both were found cuddling against each other in your tiny dorm bed, how the night before he had appeared in your door to tell you about his input for the project only to have him dozing off a few minutes after on the desk when you had offered him to share your bed for a nap until his mind could get him back to his own dorm, which clearly did not happen as he was currently asleep beside you.

“Jimin” you nudged him a bit as he stirred and whined in protest “Jimin you should get back to your dorm before class” 

He opened his eyes reluctantly but almost jumped at the sight of you both tangled together in bed “Oh god I’m so sorry, I really fell asleep” 

You smiled a forced smile at him “yeah… no problem though”

He was quick to stretch around and bid you goodbye with a slight pink tint on his face before disappearing out the door and you slumped against your bed groaning. Sure, Jimin is quite a sight to see, he is one of the most handsome men you’ve come across, but having known him for five years, with most of the time barely talking to each other, to suddenly cuddling together over the night had your mind and heart racing. Which it shouldn’t. Because he had made it clear on the first day that after the project was done, you both would go back to how it all was before. Whatever happened in between were just… occupational hazards.

One thing that came with Park Jimin was the gossip. In exchange of thousands of followers, he had to practically give up his privacy, almost as if he was some kind of celebrity, the juicier the gossip promised to be, the faster it expanded around campus, the easier people got a hold of his most intimate moments, which you came to learn sooner than later, with Taehyungs’ text attached to a set of pictures of Jimin walking out of your dorm adorned with an overlayed white text that read ‘Walk of shame on a school night’ and a few flashing gifs. Which you guessed he saw since he didn’t contact you for the rest of the week.

The next time you saw Jimin wasn’t exactly planned. The university had sent off a few invitations to some fancy diner just outside campus to be attended by a previously selected group of students representing their majors, amongst them, obviously, Park Jimin. 

A few hours into the night, and more than a few cocktails after, you had seen most of your classmates leaving except for a certain blond one that you had seen take off to the balcony, which you approached “Jimin? I’m heading home do you want me to-oh” his hands were placed around the middle of another man as his lips trace his exposed skin, Jimin turning to face you in surprise, heat rising to his cheeks as you turned your leave

“Y/N wait!” he called after you, his shoes clicking just mere seconds after your own as you made it towards the door until his hand grabbed your wrist to turn you around “Y/N…”

“It’s- nothing Jimin, really, you and I aren’t even a thing” you smiled at him and even though the words you spoke were true, you couldn’t help the clenching of your heart at the sight you had just encountered “I’m heading to campus if you wanna share a ride” 

His eyes scanned your face, hand never leaving his grip on your wrist as he took out his phone with his free hand to call an Uber and taking both of you outside to wait as your mind raced a hundred miles per second about the whole thing.

The whole ride was silent, even though you ached to ask him why in the hell would he call a whole SUV for the two of you on a 10-minute ride back, but you came to figure it had to do with something about his ‘image’. He was kind enough to walk you back to your dorm building, despite you advising against it, given the photos from a few weeks before that had him separating from you “Listen, Y/N” he whispered as you turned to him before the glass door “I need to ask for a favour” 

You just hummed in acknowledgement for him to go on  “What you saw tonight… no one can know I’m into guys”

That just about did it. You’ve known Park Jimin for five years, you’ve seen his parents’ marriage dissolve right before your eyes, no doubt he knew about it, yet he somehow thought of you as some telltale, you held his whole real-life secrets in your hands, none of his social media, selfie-induced lifestyle. 

“There’s nothing bad about being gay, Jimin,” you said back in a whisper, on your last sanity thread you could muster

“I’m not gay” his eyes fixed on the floor beneath him as he absentmindedly played with his shoes “I’m bisexual” 

“Yeah so, is that another relatable thing for you to post on your social media? Or are you actually being true to yourself for once?” his gaze fixated on you as if you were spitting venom at him “Don’t worry about it, Jimin, just don’t ever contact me again. Your secret is safe with me. Just like all those years ago” 

You were slowly making your way back home after one of your firsts nights out with some friends when out of the corner of your eye you catch a glimpse of an all too familiar silhouette, seated cuddled up in one of those comfortable café couches was none other than Park Jimin, lips brushing against this other guys’ you knew from school, a few years older, Min Yoongi, hands held together and as you subtly tried not to stare, you couldn’t help but feel happy for him since he seemed genuinely happy in the moment, something you thought he deserved, given the whole ordeal going on back at home.

You didn’t think much of it at the time; sure, it was kind of frowned upon in such a small and closed-minded place like Busan, and you wouldn’t even dare to think about the hell that would rise if high school heartthrob Park Jimin turned out to like guys, but Jimin seemed like the type to place his happiness first. 

Up until during one of those tedious dominical women-only Sunday brunches your mother had started to bring you to, Jimin’s mother approached you for small talk.

“So how was yesterday’s date?” the teasing tone she was using throwing you off at first but everything seemed to click at once. Jimin’s mother had always not so subtly hinted at her son that she would love to have you as her in-law, with Jimin just brushing off the comments whenever she came up with them at one of your gatherings, going as far as setting you up as her son’s plus one to a family Christmas dinner. 

Jimin had just told his mother he was going out with you to hide the fact that he was going out with a boy.

And it somehow felt like your responsibility to cover up for the boy next door with the broken home, as if the happiness you had seen him exude when you saw him kissing that boy depended on your ability to lie right there and then. And you did.

Park Jimin stayed true to your wish and didn’t even attempt to contact you for the next week or so, you could see him occasionally writing his assigned part on the drive for your final project, his social media as dead as it could get, which quickly aroused questions on his well being plus some questionable rumours once he wasn’t seen around campus for three days in a row like how he had probably just gone studying abroad, but somehow, deep down you knew better. You didn’t know the Park Jimin that was the constant talk of the campus, no, but you knew perfectly well the Park Jimin from a broken home that likes to spend his days inside and cry it all out.

Once your final grade came back with a perfect score, and Jimin had completely missed the revision session, you found yourself walking to his dorm to share the news on your joint efforts. 

The first three times you knocked on the door there was no answer, until the fifth one a messy-haired,  shirtless Park Jimin opened the door with swelled eyes and pouty lips 

“I’m sorry” you blurted out

“You have nothing to be sorry about, I was kind of asking too much of you” he mumbled, lips trembling as he stayed close to the door 

“Jimin” you reached your arm to him, in an attempt to comfort him “I am in no place to validate your sexuality, nor am I one to go around telling people  who you love, I guess…” you breathed in an attempt to calm your racing mind and trembling lips that threatened to sob “I guess I just want you to be happy for who you are, not who you let others see”

“Y/N…” 

“No, just please listen, it’s been years, I want you to know that all those things I’ve kept to myself are in no way meaning that you are somehow indebted to me, I did it because you seemed happier that way” his hand came up to hold yours, softly caressing it as he motioned for you to come in and take a seat next to him on the couch

“Y/N you’ve been there for so long, through more bad times than good ones I guess” you both giggled at that “And I’ve been so ungrateful for it. If someone is to thank for the way I’ve been able to live this fake dream life I thought I wanted, it’s you, Y/N” 

There was a long moment of silence where he kept on playing with your hand in his, and unspoken shared remembrance of all the times you were a silent witness he knew he could find solace in until he broke the silence.

“It’s true, you know?” you raised your head to meet his eyes in a questioning look “that I’m bisexual”

You smiled at his words “What is that supposed to mean, Jimin?”

Suddenly his small smile faded and he drew closer to your face, his hand coming up to reach your cheek and caress it a few times, his eyes fixed on your lips, waiting for you to lean into him the way he did “It means, Y/N, that these past few weeks I’ve been happier than I ever thought I could be, with you” he pecked your lips for a second “Because of you”

WHAT I cant believe Mohsin did all that!!! MEN ARE TRASH!! 🗑🗑🗑🗑

Firstly, I’m so proud of all the Pakistani women who have been speaking out against abuse and harassment because it’s not easy in our society. I pray that Fatima has strength and a good support system from her family during this time.

I had doubts about Ali Zafar and Ukhano as they’ve made snide remakes against women. With Mohsin Abbas Haider I never could’ve guessed as he’s always preaching about akhlaq and adab. It just goes to show you that you can’t trust anyone. His press conference was revealing of this terrible mindset where women are replaceable (your wife is asking for her rights - divorce her, get married again or beat her) because apparently society and religion give men this right. People are now accepting his side of the story as “no one can lie in front of a Quran.” I mean it’s this easy to convince people. Hira Mani also said the parents should think of the children before going public. So she should stay in a toxic relationship that physically and mentality hurts her? Its so hard for people to sympathize when they’re in happy relationships.

But, this may be an example for women to speak out in the future because a “divorced daughter is better than a dead one” And I’m so happy that the entertainment industry collectively stood up against him (even though it may have been easier because he’s not an A-lister) because at least the dialogue is there. I’m just hoping that his future projects get canceled and that these eye-witnesses (Gohar Rasheed, Dua Malik) speak out before it’s too late. Even if it’s hard, it should become more normalized.

Page 25: Florence Pugh and Zach Braff had Hollywood abuzz after a pal wished her a happy birthday on social media and cryptically referred to her as FPB -- that extra B caused many to surmise that Florence has quietly exchanged vows with Zach and taken his last name and Florence hasn’t done much to shut down speculation by strategically hiding her ring finger in photos shared on Instagram

There were exactly three kind of people you would find in a club on a Tuesday night: University students whose rhythm of life didn’t match the expectations of the working population, middle-aged men that were going through a divorce and hoped to find some validation in the crowd of young 20-something women and finally, people like you.

Your eyes scanned the crowd of sweaty bodies while your hands were working on cleaning the tequila glass before putting it back in its place. One of your colleagues caught your eyes and subtly moved his head in the direction of the unconventional couple in the very back of the club. The bass of the music echoed in your bones while you observed how the quickly-balding man put his hand on the thigh of the girl and leaned forwards to whisper some sweet vanities in her ear, making the female giggle. If you weren’t wrong, and you never were, this girl was still a minor. Meaning your bouncer missed a fake ID. You nodded your head at your colleague, thereof he moved away from behind the bar and pushed his way through dancing bodies to seek out your club’s doorkeeper.

With your psychology degree came a mountain of debts and housing expenses, and while you had tried finding a part-time job for the hours you had no classes to attend, you had had no luck. So when your roommate from freshmen year had proposed on working behind the bar of her father’s club downtown, the promise of well-paid nightshifts had lured you in. And granted, you came to like it. While normally you would barely be able to keep your eyes open after a whole day of back to back classes, the loud music and the screaming colours of the lights had your head buzzing. Swaying from side to side to Dua Lipa’s new song, you saw how your bouncer approached the couple, radiating danger. Mino’s appearance was absolutely terrifying and you couldn’t help but chuckle at how the man covered behind his female companion. While your bouncer looked like he could kill men with bare hands, everyone who knew him outside of this club knew his vegan soul couldn’t even harm mosquitos. You saw Mino’s lips moving and you were pretty sure he was threatening the male with the police. Not only did he, most probably, provide the girl with a fake ID but he also obviously made sexual advances towards a minor. While not all of society’s daytime rules applied to the club, the security of minor’s was taken very seriously.

It was close to four when you stepped out into the chilly morning air, taking a deep breath and allowing your body to loosen up. You knew it would take your head the whole twenty-minute walk to your apartment for it to forget the strong bass of the music.

The autumn leaves crunched under your feet as you thought about how peaceful it felt being up while everyone was still asleep. Life was better when the moon was watching over you. People stopped acting like society constructed machines, working their nine to six jobs and coming home to loveless marriages.

When you approached the tall building, your small apartment was located in, you wondered whether Taehyung was up already. Kim Taehyung was your neighbour and more than often your source of life-saving milk. Due to your night-time job and your daytime student occupation, getting groceries was not your top priority. But you needed your bowl of cereal after you’ve woken up. It was mandatory. By now, you probably owed him a few litres.

Pressing the button for the escalator, you hummed while waiting for it to arrive. When the doors opened you entered the small space that reeked of pee and thing you didn’t want to know about. This building was as sleazy as the whole neighbourhood but rent was low and you couldn’t afford to be fussy. And at the end of the day you fit in. With your clothes and hair smelling of smoke and alcohol, your eyes lined with dark eyeliner and lips dark red. Like many residents of this apartment complex you came home in the wee hours of the morning. You really fit in. Unlike the boy that appeared on the other side as the escalator doors opened on your level.

Kim Taehyung was everything this neighbourhood wasn’t: Warm, playful, kind and artsy. As soon as he saw you, his boxy smile lit up his pretty and slightly sleepy face and both your arms moved forward to keep the doors open.

“Morning.”, both of you breathed out at the same time and his low laugh made you smile. Taehyung really was a stark contrast to his surroundings, you realized, as you took in his appearance. Face framed by light, tussled hair he was spotting round glasses today. He had a colourful button-down tucked into his lightly wrinkly dress pants while the loafer on his feet looked worn out. Kim Taehyung was a contradiction and he knew it. He looked like he belonged to the part of town full of artists and not in the neighbourhood of night owls. And he definitely wasn’t dressed for his job at the bakery, but both of you knew that this is where he was heading to.

“Good night?”, he asked while still spotting his smile, eyes taking in your make-up.

“I like the purple.”

He pointed at your eyeshadow and you grinned because it had literally taken you an hour to make your eyes look like the dawn.

“Thanks. I like the glasses. Are you off to work?”

“Yep. And you’re off to bed?”

“Yeah.”

He lowered his head slightly and smiled at you through his thick eyelashes. Taehyung was ridiculously beautiful and you couldn’t help the light blush coating your cheeks.

“So…will you ask me for milk again tonight?”

His undertone was teasing but you still pouted at him before you nodded shyly.

“Probably?”

Taehyung grinned widely and moved into the space of the escalator while you stepped outside.

“I’ll make sure to get some after my shift then.”, he winked before the doors closed on you.

You probably should feel bad for constantly asking him for milk…oh no you definitely should. But it also meant that you got to see him often, and you might just have to sacrifice your pride for this minor detail.

And that’s how it was for several months. You coming home from work and Taehyung leaving for work. Asking him for milk when you woke up and him making sure he always had some in the fridge.

You had never asked him but the paint on his pants from time to time made you assume he was an art student. It wouldn’t surprise you, if you were honest. Taehyung radiated art. The way he looked, talked, walked and smiled. Taehyung was art.

Chuckling about your thoughts, you swirled your hair up into a ponytail before splashing cold water onto your puffy face. It was only noon but since today was your free day you decided to binge on Netflix instead of sleeping in. Honestly, you deserved bombarding yourself with brain cell rotting content.

Gulping down some orange juice you noticed you were out of milk once again. With a guilty sigh you nibble at your lip while the fridge hummed in the background. Did the number of times you appeared at Taehyung’s door asking for milk already border on disrespect? Should you just head down and buy your own pack? But that would mean you wouldn’t have an excuse to talk to him. And he never signalised he was annoyed, did he? He would have surely said something if he wanted you to stop asking him for milk.

Quickly changing into something else than your PJ’s, you stepped out of your door and walked down the hallway towards apartment 35. You knew that Taehyung had to be back from his job at the bakery at this time and his Thursday class wouldn’t start until 4. The wooden door looked like it was about to fall apart any second, so your knuckles against it kept the knocking soft. The jazz tunes coming from within and the low grunting confirmed your assumption of the boy being home. And a few moments later, Taehyung appeared in your view, spotting tousled hair and light sweat running down his neck.

Seeing you, a huge grin took over his face before he mentioned for you to come in.

“Fridge.”, is all he said while you stood frozen on your spot.

His whole apartment was filled with moving boxes, books spilt all over the floor and pictures in the process of being wrapped.

“You’re lucky I haven’t cut the fridge off yet.”, he hummed while stepping over a pile of books, not noticing how you weren’t following him.

Slowly you closed the door behind you while your thoughts were racing.

Was he moving away? Why? Why did he not tell you? Or did you forget it? Where was he moving?

“You…you are moving?”

Even to your own ears your voice sounded empty and you tried to mask it with an awkward chuckle.

“Hmm.”, he nodded while he stood on his tiptoes to take down a drawing from the wall.

“But why?”

You sounded like you couldn’t fathom why anyone would consider moving away from this horrendous place and it made Taehyung love.

“I moved here with the hopes of finding inspiration. For this year’s art project.”

“And you didn’t?”

His shoulders visibly tensed before Taehyung turned around and smiled at you.

“Oh no I have. But I have submitted it already. And no offence but this place is terrible, it really kills my usual muse.”

His usual muse?

“I-I have no idea what you are talking about.”

Taehyung smiled and pointed towards a wall of drawings, each one of them radiating life. Sunrises, puppies, abstract drawings with bright colours and a one portraying a group of boys.

“That’s what I like. Do you understand now?”

You nodded slowly before hesitatingly smiling up at him.

“I always thought you were out of place here.”

“Geez, thanks!”, he laughed while you counted the moles on his face. Ever since he had grabbed your hand he hadn’t let it go and you didn’t mind at all. Instead, you tightened your hold on his fingers slightly and acted like you didn’t see his surprised expression when he felt your fingers move.

“Where are you moving to?”

“A little down south. I’m staying here, just changing the neighbourhood.”

“Oh.”

“Yeah.”

Even though something inside you didn’t want him to move away and would have rather stopped him packing up, you volunteered to help him. For all the packs of milk, that is. While you were working alongside him you found out that his parents had a farm down in Daegu and that he was missing them dearly. The boys in the picture you had seen earlier were his closest friends and the reason he had moved to your neighbourhood was his project portraying life after the dark.

“You could have told me earlier, you know. I could have taken you with me to work, we have many people fit for your project.”

Taehyung only giggled and passed you the scissors with which you cut the paper that was wrapped around a pretty picture.

“You still can.”

His words filled you with a little hope. Hope of seeing him again, even though he was moving away.

When you laid in bed the day after Taehyung had officially moved out, you couldn’t help but feel sad. Somehow, the boy had become a bright star in your usual dark nights and with him gone, everything felt more…lifeless. As if his presence had given the building warmth. Coming home from work, you didn’t look forward stepping into the escalator anymore. You started buying your own packs of milk and every time you poured it over your cereal you had to think of Taehyung. You both had been so caught up in each other’s life stories that you had forgotten to ask for his number. Granted, you could seek him out at his job but you didn’t want to intrude. After all, Kim Taehyung had only been a neighbour. He didn’t have any obligations towards you and with a sigh you decided to forget about him. Many other boys had cute little moles on their skin.

As it was getting close to Christmas, the air was freezing cold as you hurried inside your apartment seeking shelter. You put the grocery bags on the kitchen counter before you lit the few candles in your living space. Somehow you had gotten into the Christmas spirit and you were really craving cookies. So you had looked up a few recipes and printed the ones you liked best, which were know pinned to your wall as instruction.

With soft music playing in the background you got to work. You were just hand-deep in cookie dough when your door rang.

With a frown you quickly whipped your hands before you approached the door and asking “Who is this?”

“It’s me. Taehyung.”, came the deep sound of his voice and you had to stop yourself from squealing. Taehyung was standing in front of your door?

You forced your huge grin off your face as you opened the door to be mad by his boxy smile.

“Did you smell the cookies?”, you teased, revelling in how good he looked.

“From miles away, yes. Can I come in? I have something to dip those cookies in!”

Your eyes caught the milk in his bag and you couldn’t help but blush.

“Is that enough bribe for you to let me in?”, he asked, voice wavering of unsureness but you grabbed his arm and pulled him into your apartment.

“You don’t need to bribe me.”

Previous Chapter

You said nothing in to car. A few hmm’s and uh huh’s to keep the conversation going as Oliver carried the load talking about how he had enjoyed the wedding and the people he had spoken to. Oliver was a doctor and he took every opportunity to network. You did a bit of the same thing but not for business. You were just social, you had never met a stranger in your life.  You treated every one and every conversation like a friend.  But he was sweet. He didn’t press you and took your words at face value when you said you didn’t feel well.

As you pulled into the parking garage he squeezed your hand. “Why don’t you go take a hot shower and I’ll make you some hot tea.” He pulled into the garage and put the car in park. He turned his body to face yours and brushed the back of his hand on your cheek and looked into your eyes. “Is there anything else you need?”

He was perfect.  He always said the right thing and did the right thing. He was 6’2” and muscular. Worked out more than anyone with his work schedule should allow. Dark blonde hair, chiseled biceps, and just the right amount of scruff. Like, all the time. Not too short, not too long.  It was almost Disney prince status perfection. He was witty, and kind. She should tell him to stay.  Maybe invite him into the shower. Wrap your body around him in the bed and make him stay all night.

“I would love soup. From that ramen place down on 3rd. I know it’s a little far. And I’m not even sure I’ll want it by the time You get back. I don’t know.” You hesitated as your voice trailed off and your eyes fell to look at the center console.

“At last you’re honest.” He smirked, and god was it sexy. “I don’t mind, really, even if you don’t eat it. Its less than 20 minutes away and I want to call and check on my mom. She hasn’t been feeling well the last day or two. I hope you’re not catching what she has. She hasn’t left the bed.” He leaned in and kissed your forehead. “Go take your shower and I’ll be back as soon as I can.”

You smiled slightly and got out the car. Shutting the door you blow him a kiss through the window before walking over to the elevator. You let out a long breath after the doors closed. Why were you letting him affect you like this? He didn’t even speak to you. You left. You were in control and you walked away the way you wanted to, like a boss. But, god! the way he looked at you. Like he could taste you. Like every inappropriate though in the world was running through his head. At least half of those thought were provided by you and the nasty things you were thinking about him.

NO! Stop thinking about him. You unlocked the door to your loft and walked towards the bedroom starting to undress. Rules were made. Well Dua Lipa made rules which you played on repeat for months after you finally broke it off for good. You walked into the bathroom and turned on your iPod. It was childish you knew but it really had helped you stay strong when you left. I mean everyone had a break up song right? You remembered when you mom divorced your dad and she listened to Cher’s Life After Love on repeat all day every day for almost a year.  You turned the shower on and it misted up the bathroom.  There was a very high tech shower system in your apartment. Spa features, 4 shower heads, diffuser, a bench, it doubled as a sauna. You turned the setting to steam the room as you finished undressing and the music started.

You step in singing along. “One.  Don’t pick up the phone you know he’s only calling cause he’s drunk and alone. Two. Don’t let him in you’ll have to kick him out again. Three don’t be his friend….” Your mind started to wander. Trying not to think about him AND singing about him gave you zero results.

You rushed out the coffee shop with your tea, yoga mat under your arm, turning, trying to get out the door.  You got this. Fifteen minutes till your new yoga class started. You were new to this side of town but excited. You had moved out of your parents’ house and were on your own. Sure you let them pay for your new place but it was all yours on the other side of town. They had money. Crime money. It used to bother you when you were younger but the more you grew up and saw some of the good that could come from it, it didn’t bother you so much. You weren’t really a part of that world anyway. You had gone to school with other kids from the same types of families and they were in and out of the house from time to time. Other than that you were completely detached from all of it, except accepting the money of course.

You ran into a chair and when you looked up to put it back and apologize you saw a familiar face from high school.

“JAMES!” you practically squealed, you voice coming out much louder than you intended. “Oh my gosh. How have you been? I haven’t seen you in years. Well, 6 years to be exact. Maybe less, I think we saw each other a couple times after graduation.” Your smile was big. You always got more excited than you intended when things like this happened. Well really when anything happened that you liked. It was hard for you to keep it on the inside. It was one of the things you didn’t really like about yourself. You came on too strong and not everyone liked that.

He just stayed sitting at the table looking up at you and you just kept talking. He opened his mouth invite you to stay. “Do you want t-“

“Do you live over here? I just moved to this side of town. That’s so weird to find you here.” Your yoga mat unrolled under your arm. You looked down at it. “uh! I feel like such a klutz lately.” You laughed and set your drink down to roll you mat back up, that’s when you looked down at your watch.

“Crap. Hey I gotta go. I have a yoga class starting in like 5 minutes. It was so great seeing you. Text me and we can get together. I don’t have much going on since I’m new around here just yoga every Monday Wednesday and Friday, but I can’t wait to catch up. You leaned in and kissed his cheek as you rushed off.

You got set up and started in your yoga class and when you were letting your mind wander you thought about the conversation you just had. You had always thought James was cute in high school but damn growing up looked good on him. And you spazzed out. Of course you did. AND you told him to text you, as if he still had your number. Had he ever had your number? What. A. Dork.

You smiled at yourself. Pressed your hands on the tile and leaning in until your forehead touched the cool ceramic as the hot water ran over your body. The song had changed. Thank god. That song was torture at this point. You grabbed your loofa and added soap. You started rubbing it against your skin running it over your arms and down you breast stimulating your nipples. You closed your eyes and Bucky’s body flashed into your thoughts. His chest. You bit your lower lip and kept running the soap over your body, up and down your legs as his arms flashed into your brain. One flesh and toned and large; the other shaped the same but metal. A moan slipped out of your mouth as you dropped the loofa when fingers found your clit and you began rubbing in rhythmic stride. Your body fell back onto the wall and tensed arching your back when the cold tile hit flesh. Your free hand ran up the side of your body and groped your breast pulling at your nipple to make it hard again as you quickened you pace. Fuck you missed him. His arms around you, in your hair pulling it. The way he smiled into a kiss with you. Your ass ached to feel him smack it while he drove into you endlessly. The way his eyes bore into you when he was on top. The feel of his metal hand fingering you. Your orgasm tipped over the edge and your legs locked as you rode it out slowing your pace as you finished.

The shower was hot. Much hotter than it had been minutes ago. Almost all of the soap had been washed off your body. You turned the faucet cooler and started rinsing the conditioner out of your hair when Oliver stepped into the bathroom.

“Hey baby I’m back. Did you still want this soup or should I put it in the fridge?”

“Leave it out. I’m getting out now and I’m ravenous.” You stepped out of the shower and put a towel around you. Oliver’s arm found their way around your body too and he ran his hand up and down your back pulling you into him and kissing the top of your head.

“I was worried about you. You never get sick suddenly like that. You sure everything’s ok? Did the shower help?”

You kept your arms tucked to your chest and let him keep holding you without hugging back. You loved being held more than holding back. “Yeah baby. I think I’m a lot better now, just hungry.” You looked up, wrapped a hand behind his neck and pulled him in for a kiss.

*******************************************

Bucky climbed into his car alone. He had come alone, why wouldn’t he leave alone. He had been alone for months now. He had gone to this wedding knowing, no hoping, you would be there too. When he agreed to help one of his “business partner’s” niece secure “the wedding venue she had dreamed of her whole life”. The name had rung bell and he hoped it was because she was friend or at least acquaintance of yours and that you would be there. It was thin, he knew, but he had stopped calling and texting when you hadn’t once responded that way. You quit your yoga class and didn’t go to your favorite coffee shop. With that he had run out of excuses to get himself in front of you. He used the excuse of a head count for the owner to get a look at the guest list. That’s when he found your name with a verified plus one after it.

He had stressed for over a week what to wear. He felt like a girl in a bad teen romcom. He asked the shop girl several times how he looked and insisted she bring three other sales women over to verify what she stated, that he had chosen the best one and it fit his body perfectly, (“and that he looked tasty enough to eat” one had whispered walking away with a giggle).

He showed up late so that you wouldn’t be able to see him before he was ready. He heard you laugh the second he walked in the room. He swallowed hard and it hurt moving down his throat but he put one foot in front of the other and moved toward you. He still couldn’t figure out what he was going to say to you once he closed in. Luckily someone was in the middle of a story so he seamlessly moved into the crowd of people listening, directly across from you. He stepped in the circle and saw all of you for the first time and his body forgot to keep breathing. When his body did catch up to his brain and start working correctly again it was just in time to answer some gushing fan. He was still at a loss of what to say to you when he turned to you but it didn’t matter you never gave him a chance to speak when you walked off wordlessly.

He excused himself quickly and moved at a steady pace trying to catch up to you without drawing attention to himself by running. By the time he got to the door you were already down the hall wrapping your arm into another man’s arm, whispering in his ear, and walking away. His stare pressed on, soaking up every second of you that he could put his eyes on. Then, you turned, locked eyes with him briefly, to make sure he was looking, then kept walking on. “Yes!” he mumbled under his breathe like a middle school boy and grinned as he turned to walk to his car.  It was still early in the night so he went to the one place he always went to when he wanted to escape these days, the coffee shop.

It was barely autumn and the weather hadn’t turned yet. He walked in and the girl behind the count smiled at his presence and simply asked, “Hot or cold tonight, Mr. Barnes?’

He leaned on the counter and looked outside at all the empty tables, let out a deep breathe, unclenched his lips and turned back to the girl. “Hot I guess, but I’ll sit inside. And I’ve told you to call me Bucky. And darling, that’s not an offer I extend to many people so you should feel privileged.” He added with a lighthearted grin and winked when she handed him his coffee, a vanilla single shot latte, because it was late. “Thanks doll, you know me so well.” he smiled again as he paid her with a fifty and walked over to the lounge chair in the corner, not looking back once. He was always such a flirt, especially when you were on his mind.

He pulled the paper back copy of The Once and Future King out of his back pocket, sat down, and stared at the pages, sipping his latte. He wanted to read, even though he had read this particular book more than a dozen time. He wanted to read because that had always been his escape. In school or when he could stand the things that went on in his house. When he was at war, and constantly in the hospital after he lost his arm in an explosion. And when his father had asked him, begged him, to take over the business when he got sick.

He did it the right way. His father really was a fair man. He had given him plenty of time to think it over. Given him options if he didn’t want to. Told him his desires but never forced them on him. No, in the end it had been Bucky’s decision to step up and be the head of it all. He stared out into the court yard in front the coffee shop and thought of that day.

His dad looked bad that morning. He called him into the office he had at the house mid-morning. When Bucky walked in he was in the middle of a coughing fit that had turned his face a reddish grey, but he waved Bucky in and gestured for him to sit down. He quickly stepped into the adjacent bathroom to wipe his mouth and was back out again.

“James.” He said but it sounded nothing like the voice that had been calling on him for over 20 years. He closed his eyes briefly and let out a long sigh. “I hate to bother you again and I know I said I would give you time but sitting behind this desk and dealing with all off these……things.” He waved his hands over the papers on his desk. “It tires me out more than I let on. I fought most of my life to get to the top and here I am, but I’m done and I’m tired and I need to know if it’s not going to be you, I need to figure out who.”

Bucky sank his head. If you had asked him growing up if he ever wanted to take up the head of the family he would not hesitate to tell you no. He was smart enough. He had a low enough moral compass to not be guilted by the deeds he would have to partake in. He was tough and after what he had seen and done overseas he had enough cruelty in him to withstand almost anything. What he didn’t have was a passion for it. For any of it, or anything really. That’s why he ran off and joined the war. He knew it was cliche but getting out was the only way of getting away from it. It had changed him though, in ways he hadn’t expected. Being a part of a team. Men he had never met before and trusting them with his life and theirs to him. It built in him the sense of family that his father had always gone on and on about and that he had never understood.

“Yes, sir. I understand.” He lifted his head to meet his father’s eyes. “Give me three more days. I will have an answer for you before Thursday.”

His father opened his mouth to answer but started coughing again. He held a handkerchief to his mouth and nodded his head as he used his hand to shoo Bucky out of the room. Bucky closed the door behind himself. He ran up to his room, grabbed a book and left the house.

He drove for a long while to the other side of town. He wanted to think, really think without any interruptions or anyone noticing him. He found a small coffee shop with some tables outside a few blocks off the main street with little foot traffic. He ordered a latte and went outside to read. He hadn’t been reading for ten minutes when a clumsy girl ran into the chair opposite of him.

By the time he looked up she was already apologizing and rambling on when he recognized her face the same time she did his. When he opened his mouth to answer one of her questions she just kept talking, somewhat louder than necessary. He remembered her from high school.  She was beautiful then but no words came to him that would do justice in discribing her beauty. In a word she was absolutely breath taking. Like literally. All he could think was it was a good thing she never shut up because he had no words in return. He wanted to tell her how beautiful she was right then. Maybe she would stay if he did. And if she stayed then he could keep her and look at her always and with perfect beauty next to him always he could never go down a dark path. “Say it stupid. But be a man about it. Smooth and confident.” He mind was working over time trying to listen to you and get his own brain to make words good and fix his face so that he looked handsome. He finally opened to mouth to let the words out when he heard you telling him to text him and kissed him on the cheek as you rushed away.

He sat there dumbfounded staring in your direction slightly heartbroken because he knew he didn’t have your phone number. Why would he? What were you thinking just walking away? He shook his head and laughed out loud a little. Only a creeper would have kept your number after 6 years.

His eyes burned when he finally blinked. How long had he kept them open? He looked over at the barista wiping off the table next to him.

“How’s your book?’ she asked with a smile.

“I’ve read it before, but good.”

“I know. Well, I know that you’ve read it before. Not if it’s good, I’ve never read it. Maybe you could read some to me some time.” She smiled deeply at him then bit her own lip, looking at him hopefully.

“Maybe some other time darlin’. But not tonight.” He stood up and walked past her brushing her arm. “Thanks again.” And he winked at her before he walked out the door. This was always how it started. Some young cute girl would flirt with him and he wouldn’t shut it down. Then they would try harder and he liked the attention. He was confident in who he was but something broken in him craved the attention of strangers. Then he would have a bad run with things at work or something would fall through and he would rush into whatever desperate girl he was stringing along at the time and fuck her loose then never return or see her again. It was sick and anonymous and somehow you always found out. But right now he was trying to get you back. He should walk right back into the shop and tell the girl it was never going to happen but he just kept walking to his car. Hard as a rock by the time he got there.
