He reels back a little, jaw twitching and eyes filling. “I love you,” he repeats, a little softer, a little more gentle, as earnest as he possibly can. Because they’ve been teetering on the brink of this thing for years, and it had become painfully obvious over the last few months that they were at a tipping point. This had to happen. Now it has.

Maintenance and Repair by patternofdefiance (E, 106,650 w., 71 Ch. || Future AU, Augmentation || Augmented John, Depression, Body Modification, Slow Burn, Worldbuilding, Sci-Fi, Self-Care, Body Dysmorphia) – John wants to explain the rush of sensation and data, which is just another form of sensation (or is it the other way around?). John wants to say: Augmentation circuits report temperature, pressure, various forms of quantitative input. Sudden changes are reported as pain, since sudden changes are dangerous, and pain is the quickest way to encourage reflexive extraction. But all John can manage is, “Nng.” Because this sudden touch is not reporting as pain. Part 2 of STATIC

A Study in Winning by Jupiter_Ash (E, 106,658 w., 11 Ch. || Tennis AU || John POV, Dirty Talk, Mutual Pining, Misunderstandings, Happy Ending, Sherlock Speaks French, Switchlock, Wimbledon) – John and Sherlock are professional tennis players and it’s Wimbledon.

Although he’s certain he’ll never get over Sherlock, John plans to move on, and build a new life with Mark, unaware that Sherlock is not quite as dead as he appears, and that Mark is hiding secrets of his own.

The Adventure of the Silver Scars by tangledblue (NR [M], 142,458 w., 41 Ch. || S3 Fix-It, Post-HLV/ Post-TAB / Canon Compliant, Case Fic, No Baby, Angst, Humour, UST, Slow Burn, Angry John, Reconciliation, Not Nice Mary / Leaving Mary, Dependent Sherlock, Pining Sherlock, Caretaker John, Fist Fights, It’s An Experiment, Virgin Sherlock, Dancing, Drugging, John Whump, Pet Names, Sherlock’s Mind Palace, Scars) – It’s been thirteen months since Mary shot Sherlock and John finds he’s still pissed off about it.

FALLEN LIKE SNOW: EPILOGUE / ONE BED

Written by @jeranasblog and Kinkybeanlien

Moodboard by @jeranasblog

Tony has big plans for the rest of the time spent in Gerlos.

Notes: Adult Peter Parker, Fake dating, One sided enemies to lovers, No powers!AU, Mutual pining, Sugar daddy!Tony, Sugar baby!Peter, Fluff, Smut and Angst.

Smut tags (for the earlier chapters): Wet Dream, Dry Humping, Daddy Kink, Mirror Sex, Dom/Sub Undertones, Bondage, Humiliation, Oral Sex, Anal Sex, Fingering, Edging, Lingerie, Dom/Top!Tony, Sub/Bottom!Peter

Read One Bed on AO3!

The Anderson lady ended up being a blessing in disguise. Her cruel, impulsive actions made the event reach the front pages of the news. The awareness it created for the charity resulted in a massive influx of donations. And while Tony’s lawyers were working on the assault case that was set up soon afterward, Tony and Peter decided to enjoy Gerlos for another few days. Tony had been acting a little suspicious all morning. He barely spoke a word to Peter, but from the mischievous gleam in his eye, Peter could tell Tony was up to something. They had started their day nice and slow; a good sleep in, breakfast served in bed by the hotel and an incredibly satisfying lazy fuck… Life was good, but Tony was hiding something and it itched Peter’s insides. What was the man planning? Just about after lunch at the hotel, Tony urged Peter back to the penthouse first to grab their mittens, scarfs and hats. They walked back out and the sun was shining. The snow reflected the bright light and when Tony spoke, Peter knew something big was about to happen. “Our ride should be here soon.” “Ride?” Peter scoffed a laugh. “Don’t tell me you arranged a limo.” Tony cocked a cheeky eyebrow and Peter’s eyes went wide. “You did?!” “You’ll see,” Tony said with a smile as he sat down on the bench at the road. He patted the seat next to him, so Peter joined him. “You’ll see…” After basking in the sunlight on a bench right outside the hotel for a bit and watching the Isskogel gondola make its rounds a few dozen times, Peter heard an unfamiliar sound. Bells… And… Hoofs? Peter turned to the road and sat up straight. His mouth fell open at the sight. A carriage sleigh, pulled by two horses, was approaching them. “You’re kidding,” Peter whispered in awe. Tony’s hand rested on his shoulder and squeezed. “I hope you’re not afraid of horses?” Peter snorted and stood up. “Are you?” Peter reached out with his hand and smiled wide. “Well, they’re big.” Tony joined Peter and curled his gloved fingers around Peter’s. “As are you.” Tony burst out laughing and Peter grinned cheekily as they approached the carriage. Tony quickly exchanged some German words with the rider who welcomed them with open arms. They got in and made themselves comfortable among the fluffy pillows and blankets. It wasn’t long before they started the trek through the mountains. The horses whinnied a couple times, startling Tony but it only made him and Peter cuddle closer together. They didn’t talk much, simply enjoying the view, the weather, the ride and each other’s presence. Peter had no idea where the carriage would take them, but he loved it, somehow- loved surrendering every part of himself to Tony. Be spoiled by him. Be taken care of. It’s perfect. Peter laid his head on Tony’s shoulder and let himself be carried to God knows where. As long as he was with Tony, all would be good. … After about an hour, the carriage stopped. They’d made their way up on the mountain, but Peter wasn’t sure where the trail would lead. They were surrounded by trees, and a small path led them further up. Peter shyly waved at the horses and thanked the rider for the lift before turning around. Tony took Peter’s hand in his and smiled warmly before walking them both up the path. It was a slithery route, much of the same view but absolutely enchanting nonetheless. Especially once the woods became a little more dense, resulting in less sunlight pushing through the trees. Fairy lights illuminated the path they walked and Peter couldn’t help but press himself closer against Tony. Whatever the man had planned, it was absolutely mindblowing already. Eventually, they reached a clearing that had a view that was incomparable to anything else. Of all the places Peter had seen in Austria, this one was by far the most breathtaking. There was a small cottage a little to the left, completely secluded from the busy tourist life down in Gerlos. Inside, an early dinner had been prepared for them. The interior design could only be described as typically Austrian. Intricately carved wood and dark stone, with fuzzy blankets and a beautiful fireplace to keep them warm. Peter didn’t know half of what he was eating. All he knew was that it tasted absolutely delicious. Tony held Peter’s hand through most of the dinner, candle-light illuminating his face and warming up his smile even further. Dessert was a shared plate of about everything Peter had once mentioned he enjoyed. From sorbet scoops and cheesecake to chocolate mousse and fresh fruits. Peter seemed surprised when there was a knock on the cottage door. Tony swiftly excused himself, but soon came back with a suitcase. “What’s that?” “Everything we need to get us through the night.” Tony wiggled his eyebrows and Peter stared at him amazed. “We’re staying here?” “If you want to?” “Yes.” … Tony took Peter’s hand once again and brought him outside, back to the clearing. He sat them down on a bench, covered with more soft blankets. From inside his coat, he conjured up a flask with warm Gluhwein, which both men thoroughly enjoyed as they watched the sun set. When it was almost dark, the sun barely visible on the horizon and the fairy lights slowly appearing again, Tony turned to Peter and took off both their gloves. “Peter…?” Tony lifted their hands and kissed Peter’s fingers one by one, simultaneously caressing them with his thumbs. “Tony?” Peter whispered. He stared at Tony with wonder, unsure what to expect, but loving every second of their time together. “I promised you a grand gesture.” All the puzzle pieces fell together and Peter gasped quietly, a wide-open smile spreading across his face at the knowledge of what Tony would be asking next. “You did,” his reply was soft. Gentle. Like Tony’s touch. The man sweetly kissed Peter’s fingers again and then looked up at Peter with a hopeful gleam in his eye. “Peter Benjamin Parker, will you be my boyfriend?” Peter’s sight became blurred with happy tears and he leaned in, colliding his and Tony’s lips in a soft kiss. They remained glued together for a short while, holding hands and tugging hair. When they finally broke free, Tony smiled. “Is that a yes?” “Mm…” Peter moaned and closed his eyes, leaning in for another kiss. “Oh, Petey,” Tony said with a smirk, pulling back and raising one eyebrow. “You know I’m big on consent.” Peter snorted and shook his head slightly. “Will you be my boyfriend? Yes or no?” Peter leaned in again, pulling Tony closer to press their noses together. Their gazes locked and they exchanged hot breaths on the cold February early evening. “Yes.” … Back at the cottage, Peter made them tea. Before they sat down, though, Tony got that mischievous sparkle back in his eyes. And there was something else. Something… More. “What are you up to this time?” Peter inquired with a chuckle. Tony simply gestured at one of the two doors inside of the cottage. One led to the bathroom, the other to the bedroom, Peter supposed. He made his way to the door Tony pointed at and opened it. The bedroom. Peter walked in and turned back to Tony, waiting for him to say something. Tony did a dramatic faux gasp, as he looked at the bed wide-eyed. He held his hands in front of his mouth and glanced back at Peter, the mischief still evident in his eyes. “And there was only one bed,” he exclaimed. Peter scoffed a laugh and looked at his feet shyly before sitting down at the end and invitingly spreading his legs, letting his hands run up his thighs and circling them around his crotch. He fluttered his eyes and spoke. “And there was only one bed.”

Master post for all my fics so far

I’ve put here most of the tags but not all, so please read them. My recurring themes are: Reylo is madly in love, Happy ending, Redemption/Healing of some sort. Let me know what you guys think!

Morpho Menelaus

Rated M, 1189 words, One-shot

📎https://archiveofourown.org/works/24635509

🏷 Modern AU, Grief/Mourning, Pinned Insects, Swearing, Butterflies, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Fluff and Angst

Rey works at an insectarium and notices a recurring visitor at the butterfly exhibit.

This fic is the ao3 version of a twitter fic that I wrote for this prompt by @reylo_prompts:

"Ben and Rey work at a zoo Rey always finds Ben in the butterfly exhibit, he likes to go there when he’s sad."

Ever since the Roll-out came out, I’ve been in love with the butterflies, like many fellow Reylos, and couldn’t wait for them to show up in the fics. My headcanon is that the butterflies are a symbol of the love between father and son, so tragically broken apart (by cruel writers). I love this little fic. It makes me happy. It gives me closure and hope.

🦋🦋🦋

***

A Quick Death

Rated M, 2293 words, One-shot

📎https://archiveofourown.org/works/24563752

🏷 Canon Divergence, Post TLJ, Wounds, animal blood, Mention of death penalty, Forgiveness, Redemption

This is my contribution to a Prompt Gangbang event: “Rey finds Ben tied to a tree.”

I can’t write fix-it fics because TROS made canon so bad, there is no fixing it other than ignoring that piece of shit of a movie completely, in my opinion. So I divorced myself from that and live in denial ever since, never missing an opportunity of writing about what it should have been.

🌳🌳🌳

***

What Am I Here For?

Rated E, 25577 words, 16 chapters

📎https://archiveofourown.org/works/23903074/chapters/57471235

🏷 Modern AU, Breylo, Polyamory, Heavy Angst, Grief/Mourning, No Incest, Skywalker Family Drama, Loss of appetite, Consensual Infidelity, Internalized Prejudices, Domestic Fluff, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Threesome - F/M/M, Everyone Is Alive, No Pregnancy, No Kids

This is the Breylo version of this old prompt by @reylo_prompts: "When Ben is declared missing, and then presumed dead, his fiance, Rey, is heartbroken. He returns years later, only to find she didn't wait for him as she'd promised she would."

This is my favourite fic that I wrote. It features smut but it’s not a smut fic, I wanted to write something different this time. Also, I had a lot of grief to let out and needed to find a way for these characters to heal and find a happy ending, even after all they’ve been through. I poured my heart out writing this one. I’m still in love with my poly babies Rey, Ben and Kylo and always will be.

❤️💛💙

***

Smitten

Rated M, 16065 words, 8 Chapters

📎https://archiveofourown.org/works/23306047/chapters/55821535

🏷 Modern Setting, Angel Rey, Human Ben, Mild Smut, Loss of Virginity, Protected Sex, Family Drama, Fluff

Rey is an angel who falls to protect human Ben from demon Snoke. They fall in love while figuring out the truth about Ben's family.

Inspired by Diablo (the video game) mythos, but this fic is super fluffy. Listen, I just wanted a feral angel girl to protect SoftBoi Ben, okay? And fall in love and bone him along the way...

😇😇😇

***

Macrolepidoptera

Rated E, 3215 words, One-shot

📎https://archiveofourown.org/works/23588158

🏷 Modern, Mothlo, Porn with Feelings, Hurt/Comfort, Monsterfucking, Body Worship, Biting, Blood Play, Fluff and Angst, Cuddling & Snuggling, Dark fic

Rey runs after her Mothman to show him how much she loves him

MOTHLOOOO!!! I fell in love with Mothlo and had the urge to let the whole fandom know, haha. Really, this is about Kylo believing he’s worthy of love and Rey being true to herself. Another favourite, because I will always love those sweet monsters who are better than so many ‘nice guys’ we meet out there.

🖤🦋🖤

***

Ash & Blood

Rated E, 6596 words, One-shot

📎https://archiveofourown.org/works/22568317

🏷 Medieval, Dark fic, Murderous Lovers, Minor Character Death, Betrayal between friends, Violence, Kylo Ren is Not Nice, Rey is not nice, but they love each other

Bloodthirsty warrior Kylo Ren is betrayed by his men and must flee. He is helped by a mysterious woman and her friends. He joins forces with them to get his revenge.

My first dark fic. It was a gift for my wonderful friend. It was a lot of fun to write people being bad.

🗡🖤🔥

***

Heal

Rated T, 4379 words, One-shot

📎https://archiveofourown.org/works/22537060

🏷 Canon Divergence, Angst, Fluff, Kyber Crystals, Force Bond, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Nightmares, Sharing a Bed, Visions

A few weeks after the Battle of Crait, the Force connects Rey and Ben again on several occasions as she is trying to heal the legacy saber's Kyber crystal.

Another gift for a Valentine’s Day exchange. When my giftee asked for soft romance and Rey touching Ben’s hair I rubbed my hands together and gave an evil laugh because it’s what I do best, haha. This is my first T rated fic and it’s very soft and cute.

💎💎💎

***

High Seas

Rated E, 19923, 10 chapters

📎https://archiveofourown.org/works/21640174/chapters/51602203

🏷 Pirate AU, Porn With Plot, Mention of Reyux, Infidelity Kink, Praise Kink, Light Dom/sub, Dom Kylo Ren, Sub Rey, Betrayal, Angst and Fluff and Smut, Name-Calling, Dirty Talk, Rough Sex, Period-Typical Sexism, Slut Shaming, Revenge Sex, Pirate Rey, Lovers to enemies to lovers, Mention of pregnancy at the very end of the epilogue

Rey is stuck in a loveless and sexless marriage. So she turns to the alluring Commander Kylo Ren to quench her thirst.

This is my dirtiest fic and I love it to death. I’m not the best smut writer in the world, but this porn was liberating to write. Also, I wanted to write Ben as not a Softboi this time, and Rey as someone a little more flawed than what I usually do. Horny Reylo at their best.

🏴‍☠️ 🌊

***

The Tide

Rated E, 14949 words, 6 chapters

📎https://archiveofourown.org/works/20658665/chapters/49060343

🏷 Canon Divergence, Slow Burn, Hurt/Comfort, Domestic Fluff, Angst, Eventual Smut, Mention of abuse, Kylo Ren Needs a Hug, Gardening, Spoiler for Kylo Ren comic, No Pregnancy, No Kids

This fic was based on a prompt from @reylo_prompts: “The Resistance catches Supreme Leader and decides on his execution. Rey promises that if they do that, the Jedi won't support their cause any longer. Nevertheless, they proceed. She leaves. Several years later, Palpatine's return prompts the Resistance to seek Rey out. They are shocked to find her peacefully living with very much alive Kylo in a cute cottage on an outer rim planet.”

In sharp contrast to the latter, this is mostly plot driven. I wanted to write about them falling in love gradually, facing who they really are and what happened in canon (I wrote this before TROS came out so some of my lines sound kinda funny now). Also, Leia and Ben have a chance to make things right here, something that will forever be missing in my heart.

🏡🌻🌏

***

The Dark Prince

Rated E, 38471 words, 17 chapters

📎https://archiveofourown.org/works/20739284/chapters/49274468

🏷 Fantasy AU, Slow Burn, Curses, Demons, Angst, Fluff, Smut, Attempt Self-Sacrifice, Battles

In a fantasy land, Rey, a Jedi Monk, travels across the land in the winter to end the war the First Order has been waging. There, she finds their great power being challenged by a small but brave group of dissidents, the Resistance, and also by something else. A demon who haunts the woods nearby and attacks those who dare to cross the forest.

This was my RFFA fic. I tried to create a world where the heroes would be able to fight and win by not fighting what they hate but saving what they love.

***

Something Beautiful

Rated E, 6186 words, One-shot

📎https://archiveofourown.org/works/20263963

🏷 Medieval AU, Arranged Marriage, Fluff, Angst, Smut, Loss of Virginity, Virgin Rey, Virgin Ben Solo, Gentle Sex

Rey begrudgingly agrees to marry her greatest enemy and fears her wedding night.

This fic was inspired by a prompt from @reylo_prompts: “Lord Ren forces orphan Rey to marry him. On their wedding night he refuses to take her because he wants her to be willing. Rey is both enraged and frustrated. She may hate him but she isn’t exactly opposed to being ravished by her husband.”

This is my most successful fic. I loved the idea of a character being so sure of something and then be proven wrong. It’s basically two dumb virgins figuring it all out, connecting deeply in the process. And I could never have a fic where Rey is a passive onlooker in her own life. She knows what she wants and she’s going to get it.

🏰🌕💞

***

The Balance

Rated E, 70382 words, 21 chapters

📎https://archiveofourown.org/works/17664236/chapters/41660696

🏷 Canonverse, Slow Burn, Eventual Smut, The Force Ships It, Softboi Ben, Rey is confident, Lightsabers, Force Bond, Kylo Ren Redemption

It has been a few months since the battle of Crait. Both sides are rushing to rebuild. Rey is getting stronger as a Jedi. Ben, however, is feeling unsure. They cannot forget about each other as dreams haunt them both. A series of events brings them together again.

Okay, this is my first fic... It’s bad... Like, really bad... I’m not disowning it but this is cringeworthy, even if I still love it and stand by some of my ideas. We all gotta start somewhere, right? Also, it’s better than TROS... 😘

⭐️⭐️⭐️

Big thanks to @leofgyth, @reylotrash711, @thehobbem and starcrossreylo for the betas and moodboards. I love you guys!

Making Circles - Month Two

Square(s) Filled: Curtain Fic for @spnfluffbingo2019

Warnings: Case angst, being fake married to Dean, fluffy domestic feels

Summary: Dean and Y/N have to pretend to be married for a case. But this isn’t any ordinary case. Married couples have gone missing from Albert Lea, Minnesota, every six months for the last few years but there is almost zero evidence. People don’t just disappear like that do they? With Bobby and Sam’s help, plus an ally in their new town, they have just under six months to figure it out. Chances are they’ll survive the case, but will their friendship survive their fake marriage?

Pairing: Dean x Reader

Word Count: 682

Written for: @spnfluffbingo2019

Beta’d by: @amanda-teaches, who says the nicest things and makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside and also keeps me on a straight line. I heart you! And @alleiradayne for letting me bounce ideas off her, like all the time.

A/N: This will be six chapter series, one for each month of the case, plus a bonus epilogue. Loosely based/inspired by the song Making Circles by Christian Kane and I just felt this needed to be written. There will be lyrics dispersed throughout the entire story. I hope you love this as much as I do.

The nicest thing you can do for a writer is reblog their work and tell them, and others, how much you like it!

Making Circles master list

Month Two

Y/N noticed a difference in Dean about a month after they settled into their new little fake life. He came home from work at a reasonable hour and they ate dinner together like a normal couple. He even surprised her with flowers at work and asked her out on a date. She thought Jake may have had something to do it his recent change, but she wasn’t going to look a gift horse in the mouth.

The ladies at the library drooled over him when he stopped by and women stared at them on the street wherever they went. She knew they made a striking couple, and she couldn’t help but be proud that he was hers, even if she knew deep down it was all make believe for the case. Her head knew the difference, but her heart held out hope that it could eventually be something more.

Bobby and Sam kept in touch every week as promised. Sam was working on a way to get into the BCA so he could run the evidence himself, but it was taking longer than he liked. They had a little less than five months until another couple would disappear, if the pattern held, and they were no closer than they were on day one.

Their life became domestic. They cooked dinner together, picked out a few new things for the house or the yard and lived like a normal couple. Dean and Y/N made friends with their neighbors, even having barbecues and games nights together. Movie nights became their favorite stay in date night with pizza and popcorn. It surprised her that Dean seemed so comfortable, but it shouldn’t. It was his dream after all, to live that apple pie life.

Y/N felt herself drift off during one of those movies nights. After a full day of working in the yard, she was tuckered out. She didn’t realize how tired she was until she found herself in Dean’s arms as he carried her up the stairs to her room. He set her down gently on the bed and turned to leave. Her hand reaching for his stopped him. “Stay.”

It wasn’t the first time she had shared a bed with Dean, but it was the first for them in the weeks since they started their new life. Dean sat at the edge of her bed, removing his sleep pants. “Move over, Sweetheart.” She quickly rolled to other side of the bed and pulled the covers down.

Dean slid in beside her, pulling the blankets over them. He moved his arm to allow her to curl into him. Dean cursed himself for letting her break down that wall he had constructed so carefully over the last twenty plus years. No one, not even Cassie, had managed to sneak a peek inside. But he had himself to blame for that didn’t he? His whole life had been about taking care of Sam and hunting down the thing that killed their mother. It didn’t allow for anything else. Then came this girl out of the blue and knocked his socks off with her knowledge and beauty and power, and he fumbled over himself trying to keep his shit together around her. It was just teenage nerves, he told himself over and over until he believed it. Then she came back to Bobby’s after a long winter and somehow she had done it all over again. He was a goner. Now he had to be fake married to her for half the damn year.

It felt nice thought, right? The apple pie life he always dreamed of. There was no picket fence or dog, or two point five kids, but they were living it. He didn’t adjust as quickly as she had and he hadn’t handle it well. He was trying to make up for that now. He just may be able to get used to this domestic shit, he thought. With Y/N snuggled up to him, he quickly fell into a restful sleep, dreaming vividly about what their life really could become.

Faery Lights and Long Nights

Kyungsoo x reader - Therapist!au

Fluff, Angst, Trigger Warning (Stalker!au/Sexual Harassment/Alluding to Sexual Molestation), Eventual Smut

Author Notes: Ah good evening! This is a therapist!Kyungsoo fic I made for my sister, and it’s the first thing I’ve written in about 5 years, so she will be rough, in concept and execution, but she’s got a little of everything and I lover her dearly. Please take that into consideration, loves. I would love to hear any and all (constructive) feedback! Please let me know what you think I could have done better! (Specifically with how I portrayed Kyungsoo, he’s not somebody that’s easy for me to read, but I want to make sure I do his personality justice.) Enjoy! -Diana

Prologue - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - Epilogue

Kyungsoo’s POV

I ran a hand through my hair and down my face. How could I have let her get to me like this? Normally, I would have suggested somebody who’s being stalked stay with some close friends or family she could trust. Though, she had mentioned a great amount of stress coming from her family, and she doesn’t seem to know who her stalker might be. Staying here today would be in her best interest.

As for the hotel, I have no other explanation besides pure selfishness. Something deep down wanted, no, yearned to comfort her as the tears rolled down her cheeks and into her lap. To gather her up in my arms and rub her back until she calmed down. To hold and protect her from the fears of the night.

She was grace and beauty. Eloquence and insight. She held the glory of the heavens in her eyes, but fear and anxiety had caused the storms to surge. And it was all I could do to hold back from high-tailing it out of there and finding the one responsible for her shattered hope and trust. A rage ignited in my chest. Whoever it was, would pay.

She was incredible. Her eyes were red and puffy from crying and her hands shook with adrenaline and anxiety, and even though she had already paid for the hour we spent talking today, she offered to help with any paperwork I had. I told her she didn’t need to, to just relax, but she disagreed. “I already phoned my friends and family, and called out sick at work, but to be honest I’m pretty bored. It’s the least I can do for you allowing me to stay here today. Please? If, you don’t mind?”

Smiling warmly, I handed her a generous stack of papers that needed to be organized and showed her to the spare office across the hall. I thanked her and left the door cracked as clients rolled in one by one.

I found myself checking on her in between sessions, showering her with attention and comfort. I tried to alleviate the stress on her mind with casual conversation, and in doing so I discovered her personality was just as captivating as her looks. She was quite different from anyone I had ever met. She was so hopeful of others and continuously gave them the benefit of the doubt, even if it hurt her later on. It pained me to understand someone had dared to taint the heart of someone so pure. Though gentle and trusting, she was not to be mistaken as naïve. She was incredibly smart, and she knew how to protect herself. She had mentioned she even took self-defense classes. Yet here the fair maiden sat, faded makeup, with the brightest smile alighting her features. It made my heart leap bounds like I was once again a child. ** It was well into the evening, nearly 7pm.

“May I ask, what’s the plan? Since your last client has left?” She inquired.

“Well, before I booked the room, I wanted to ask if you would feel more comfortable staying with any of your close friends?” I didn’t want to force her into an uncomfortable situation.

“Well,” She started, downcast eyes hiding from my intent gaze, her tone wavering slightly. “I moved to this town not too long ago, and I haven’t made close friends with anyone I would be comfortable sharing this with. And besides, I don’t want to put anybody else in danger. I have no idea what kind of person has been stalking me, after all.”

“As you wish, Miss (Y/L/N).” So, she was alone… much like myself. “Tell me, where’s your favorite place to eat?” Her favorite food might help ease the unfamiliar atmosphere of the hotel.

The question must have caught her off guard; her features stunned at the seemingly odd question. “Um, well, there’s this cute café on Main Street that has the best coffee and sandwiches.”

“Then we will stop there after we pick you up some spare clothes.” I nodded and opened the passenger door to my car, letting her inside. The first stop was her apartment. “Would you like me to go in with you?” I asked.

“That would be very nice, thank you. Just um, don’t mind the mess.”

“I won’t.”

I stepped in the space after her. Countless strings of faery lights stretched across the ceiling, down the hallway, and into each room, casting a cozy mellow glow on the (literal) entirety of her home. Fluffy throws and shaggy rugs littered the space more than laundry or trash. That must have been what she meant by mess. Though I don’t see how blankets and pillows equal a mess; it looked more of a cozy nest, to be honest. What caught me by surprise, however, was when one of the ‘pillows’ stretched its legs out and began to meow.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t realize you had a pet.”

She knelt down to pet the ball of fluff. “It’s okay. He’ll be quite alright for a night or two. I’ll just have to leave out a lot of extra food. He eats too much for his own good.” If she was fine with it, then I suppose it was ok. “Okay, let me throw some stuff into a bag.”

Her cat and I held a silent conversation while I waited. Unfortunately, he wasn’t very good company. She emerged a moment later with a small duffel and two large bowls of cat food. Setting them down she said her goodbyes to her precious pet and we left for the car.

Second stop: the café. A nearly intoxicating aroma of roasting coffee, fresh baked sandwiches, and pastries filled the air, welcoming with the promise of good food and pleasant company, but we would not be staying long enough to enjoy either.

“Order your favorite food and we shall head out. I don’t want to catch any unwanted eyes that may follow.” I whispered into her ear, taking notice of the goosebumps that rippled across the surface of her neck. I should be more careful of her personal space, it was a fine line between attraction and anxiety in this situation.

As she ordered, I sauntered over to the bar stools to wait, though I had to hide my smirk as the barista giggled. My hearing being better than most, I picked up on the teasing, flirty comments coming from her friend.

“(Y/N), is that your boyfriend..?!”

“Oh, no, he’s just a friend.”

“Oh, come on. He’s ridiculously gorgeous! Tell me you aren’t tapping that tonight.”

“I am not, Ava. We’re just. Friends.”

“Uh-huh, text me afterwards, kay?” the barista winked.

(Y/N) slapped her friend softly and marched back over to me, all ready to leave the teasing behind. The light pink haze under her (Y/E/C) eyes highlighted the beauty of them even more, and I found myself lost in her soul’s galaxy once again.

A small hand passing across my face broke my concentration. “Kyungsoo? Hello?”

I shook my head and shot straight for the door, holding it open, “Let’s go.” I said, trying to hide my own embarrassment.

We made it to the hotel around 8:30 pm; the hotel receptionist showed us to her room. It was second floor, with a full-size bed, and mini fridge. Nothing too spectacular, but enough to keep her comfortable. I gave her my number and told her to text me if she needed anything at all; I’m only a text away.

As she was sorting through her things, I made an effort to make sure all of the windows and doors were locked, but she interrupted me. “Don’t bother,” she said, “I’ll just do it twice more before I finally sleep.”

Her comment was so lightly put, it broke my heart. I don’t know if she will ever fully understand how badly I wanted to stay with her that night. How could I leave when I knew she didn’t feel safe? “I see.” I mumbled, turning to leave.

“Kyungsoo?” Her soft voice called out, pulling me back in. I turned to greet an exhausted shell of a girl. It seemed the day had finally caught up with her.

“Thank you, for everything.”

“You’re quite welcome.”

The ride home was too quiet, oppressing silence hung in the air as traffic lights and time blurred by. I mulled today’s events over and over. It was quite an impulsive decision to take care of her like this. Let her spend all day with me, even buy a hotel room for her to stay in. It’s nearly too much care for any one client, but I couldn’t deny the pull I felt in my chest. She, in the small amount of time I had gotten to know her, enchanted me like no one before. And it almost scared me.

When I arrived home, I hopped into the shower immediately. I needed to wash these emotions from my conscious, keep my head clear as possible, to make sure I could deliver the proper amount of care to her, no matter how I felt.

Steaming bolts of water massaged the tension from my shoulders, I rarely let myself enjoy long showers, but tonight I let the hot water melt the day away. As I stepped out of the shower, towel hung low on my waist, I noticed my phone was blowing up. It unlocked showing I had 2 missed calls and 9 text messages from an unknown number.

The phone fell on the bed, my nerves dead and eyes blown wide. Oh no.

[Unknown] 9:47 p.m. Kyungsoo please help. Hes in my room. I’m scared.

Ranking My Jarchie Fanfiction

I’ve been in the Riverdale fandom for a long time so I’m going to start this off by stating that in the very beginning, the main ships were Beronica and Jarchie. Crazy right? Bughead wasn’t really a thing. Now, there are barely any Jarchie scenes in the show but I still write Jarchie fanfiction on wattpad here.

I love writing reviews and just writing period and after re-reading my fanfiction for the first time in months, I’ve decided to write a brutally honest review. So let’s begin.

5. Meadow Of Flowers

For some reason, this is one of my most popular fics. Though it always seems that way right? The things you write that you’re most proud of never get the recognition you think it deserves, but the things that have been slapped together hastily seem to do very well. A. K. A the fanfiction writer’s curse.

Here are the good things: the idea and the plot started off great. It’s a cute, clear concept. It’s not complex or hard to comprehend. The prep draws flowers on the goths notebook, the goth surprises the prep by drawing more flowers, and the prep tries to get to know him so he creates a tumblr and messages him anonymously. The text messages sent between the two are funny. It’s a good laugh, something to snicker at when you’re bored and have free time. The characters are really interesting. Archie has an infectious attitude and watching Jughead try to deal with it is equally as entertaining.

Here are the bad things. The plot loses itself somewhere in the middle. All of a sudden Jughead has an ex girlfriend that comes back in town and his father is the leader of the Mafia or some while crazy crap like that. There becomes too many irrelevant characters. None of the rest of book actually has to do with the main concept, the meadow of flowers drawn on a piece of paper that brought them together. I really don’t know how that concept got so lost. But even still, it garners up tons of reads. For what reason? Probably because of the text messages. Archie’s dirty pick up lines and Jughead’s insertion of memes are probably the only thing that keeps readers coming back.

The writing also extremely lacks. It’s a dialogue based book. There’s not much substance there. It’s literally all quotes. Definitely not my best work. I’d say it’s my worst. I cringe when people tell me they love it so much.

I haven’t updated the book in months and honestly I don’t think I’ve ever going to. If anything, I’ll delete all of the wild chapters and keep the text messages. This fic is the definition of the cringe side of Wattpad and I promise you my other fics are nothing like this trainwreck.

4. Treehouse

Treehouse is my only ongoing fanfiction. It’s probably going to be my last Jarchie fanfic. I’m not sure if it’s my last fanfic on Wattpad though. I’ll have to see. I’m kind of over the Riverdale fandom and the show if I’m being completely honest.

Jughead and Archie spend a summer in the latter’s treehouse getting to know each other, but once they get back to school the story gets twisted into a lot of dirty rumors. Jughead wants to forget what happened, but Archie wants to further their relationship.

Good things: Characterization. Jughead is fem! In this book. He’s bubbly, innocent, and an all around strong character. He’s an activist, a vegan and a super inspiring person. He’s extremely lovable. It’s easy to support and fall in love with his character. I wrote Jelly Bean, his sister, older in this book. She’s also a dynamic character. She has her own issues as well. The book doesn’t just focus on Jarchie, it focuses on Jelly Bean’s problems, Archie’s problems, Betty’s problems, and my OCs problems individually. Their lives all intertwine and that’s another aspect that makes the book great. The writing is good and the storylines are relatable.

Bad things: Because there are so many storylines, the book drags. I’m often left to wonder what the actual plot is. There’s no climax or end goal. It’s more like a look of the lives into each person, which isn’t a bad thing, but it causes the story to feel slow and sometimes meaningless. There are currently 19 chapters written and published, but it feels as if there’s much less because nothing has been accomplished and nothing has been destroyed yet.

Despite that, I do think it’s an entertaining read and in terms of writing, I think it’s easy to follow and easy to love.

3. Circumlocution

My readers like to call this book Hell.

I am usually a fluffy fic writer. My books do tend to have angst, problems that need to be solved that eventually work out, but this is not one of those books.

Jughead and Archie dated in high school until Archie left one day out of the blue. Jughead never got a call, never got an explanation, but was instead left to deal with his miserable life without one of the people who made it bearable. Archie comes back to Riverdale a year later, finds Jughead at a bar, and offers to take him home on a long, awkward, emotional car ride into the unknown.

Good things: the plot is amazing. There’s very few settings, the most used one being the car, so it’s easy to follow. It’s structured, the chapters flashback to a couple of years ago so the reader can piece together what happened to Jughead while Archie was gone and what happened to Archie after he left. The flashbacks give a glance to both sides of the story as the characters stay clueless to the whole truth until the very end. It’s my shortest, most consist fic, numbering in at 25 chapters and a heartfelt epilogue. The writing was done very well, every emotion is felt. The anxiousness, the tension, the hatred, and the hint of affection they both still had toward each other are displayed well. There are subtle clues dropped to allow the reader to guess what happened, and little details start to make sense at the very end.

Bad things: even with that “glowing review” there are some shortcomings I think. I’m also very picky about my own work by the way, so in reality these fics may not be as bad as I’m making them out to be.

Because there’s very few settings, I think sometimes the setting does get lost. I think the car could be described more. I think the mentions of the road could be used. Maybe I’m fussing, but there’s lots of times where there’s just conversation and the reader assumes that it’s in Archie’s truck because that’s where they last were. Still, I think there should be reminders instead of just still dialogue. For instance, how much moving around can you do in a car? The only other locations are pit stops to get food. The rest of the locations are in the flashbacks, which don’t really play a huge part to the story itself.

I also think that maybe the book is too dark at times. One thing that I hate about wattpad, is the number of dark fanfics written by 12 year olds who romanticize topics like depression and self harm. I didn’t romanticize the topics, but they’re there and I tried to be respectful and treat them with the seriousness that needed to be there. There’s physical abuse, substance abuse, self harm, it’s a lot. It’s why my readers call the book hell, because it’s a lot of emotions at once, especially when you grow so attached to two characters and grow to vouch for their relationship to work out in the end.

My favorite part of the fic is the epilogue because it shows someone reaching out, getting help, and trying to get better. Its the right approach.

My book is also called hell because of the ending... but I’m not going to spoil that for you.

I just think that the mood in the fic could be lighter in some aspects. There needs to be more breaks for happy flashbacks, or more light hearted conversation. Sometimes I feel as if the transitions are too quick. Jughead could go from yelling at Archie to slowly easing up when they reminisce about the past, but I think the shift should be more gradual. Still, in terms of plot/structure/and writing, it’s my best fic. Hands down. So why is it at number 3? Let’s see.

2. Nameless

Maybe this is where my bias steps in.

In reality, this would be tied with my number 1 choice because this is one of my favorites, though I don’t think it’s technically better than circumlocution in terms of plot. This is another book that drags on for longer than it’s supposed to.

Nameless didn’t have a name. He was 17 Years Old. He didn’t talk to anybody but his social worker. He didn’t show emotion. He spent his days reading and coming up with names until one felt right, for the boy had amnesia after a terrible accident that separated him from his parents and his old life. Archie comes around, and soon he learns to stop viewing with the world with indifference and hanging onto the past.

Good things: Characterization yet again. I’m very good at characterization. Although the Riverdale characters are not mine, I’m very good at giving them their own unique personalities to fit my plots and ideas. Nameless is obviously Jughead, but his character is so complex. My favorite thing is watching him grow as a person throughout the book. He seriously learns how to love, how to deal with people, and how to accept himself and what he has. Watching his relationship grow with his adoptive parents and his adoptive siblings is just as amazing as watching his relationship grow with Archie. I think that the writing is done well, though there is some things left unanswered in the end that I ended up explaining in my final author’s note. The plot is consistent as well.

Bad things: Like I mentioned earlier, I do think it drags on. Some scenes are definitely unnecessary and there’s some chapters that can be scraped out. There’s no reason for why there needed to be 60 chapters.

As a fanfic writer though, I think it’s safe to say that most of the time fics are filled with a lot of irrelevant chapters for fluff. They’re fillers, sure, but most people read for the fluffy scenes of a relationship. Chapters like that are also important for live updating a book. Sometimes it’s just easier to throw in a filler to give readers what they want in order to work on plot centered chapters. It’s something I’m conditioned to, but something that isn’t really a pro when writing a real book, which is something I want to do. Maybe I’m giving myself too much crap for this, but eh it’s definitely something that needs fixing.

Another thing that needs work would probably be my tendency to introduce characters and forget about them. One of my original characters, Jay, was a big part in the middle of the book, but then he slowly faded away and wasn’t brought up again until the epilogue.

1. Aberration

Here it is. My first Jarchie fanfic. My pride in joy. Look at the love this fic has been shown? My goodness. 116k. It’s probably my greatest accomplishment. This is my favorite fic and guess what?

It’s total bias.

But let me get into why this is good first. (Jughead being asexual is the best part)

This book is a coming of age story. It’s probably my only fanfic that takes place in the actual Riverdale Universe. All of my other fics are AU’s with the only connection to Riverdale being their names. It starts with Jughead and Archie at 4 years of age and goes up to age 27 with an epilogue at age 33. That being said, I can’t give you a specific plot summary because sooooo many problems arise and so many problems are solved throughout the years. It’s a glimpse of their life, and it’s beautiful.

Good things: sticking to canon. (In the beginning at least) Jughead is just as lost, confused, and edgy as he was in season one. (I say season one because Jughead in season 2 felt like a whole different character and I feel like the writers kind of ruined him. There’s such thing as character development but I think they went overboard. Anyways, that’s a different story.)

Their childhood is written as I envisioned it. There’s canon conversations, like Archie’s proposal to Betty when they were kids. It’s sweet.

Besides sticking to canon, I do a good job of sticking to parallels since there’s such a wide range of events and incidents going on. I think it shows continuity in the characters from when they were 10 to when they were 20.

Not only that, but the plot is just all around entertaining. There’s always something to aww at, something to get mad at, something to laugh at, something to cry at. It’s emotional, watching them grow up and go through all sorts of things. The problems that arise are real coming of age problems. People lose friends, make new ones, go through identity crisis, deal with loss, deal with stress, deal with home issues. It’s all there and very real. It’s raw. I love that. The character development is also amazing. Watching little kids turn into strong men and women is really interesting and fun to watch.

My favorite part is that Jughead is ASEXUAL.

I did so much research. When I found out that Jughead was supposed to be asexual in the show, I took my chance and ran with it. I did my best to represent the asexual community in this book. It’s what makes it so unique. It’s why this is my favorite. I get lots of dms about how this helped people figure out how they identify or get trough what they were feeling. I’ve put resources to the AVEN website, a safe community for asexuals. I did my best and I love the product. I love that I’ve helped people. This really is why this is my number one. Besides that representation, Kevin Keller is gay, Archie is bisexual, Liliana (my og character) is Hispanic, and my other og character, Aaron, is African American. Everyone loves my OCs in the book, especially Jackson. Representation to me is soooooo important. It’s one thing that I really nailed.

Another thing that I love about this book is that my development as a writer is so obvious. As the chapters go on, I get better and better. I start to fall into a style, and it’s so enjoyable to see that reading it again. The chapters get more descriptive, the grammar starts to improve, and the plot starts to get more complex.

However, in terms of technical aspects, it’s probably one of my worst written fics in the beginning. Still not as bad as Meadow of Flowers, but close.

Bad things: First of all, it’s written in present tense. That’s not totally against writing rules, but it’s unconventional and it’s more common for stories to be told in past tense. Again, I didn’t really know what I was doing. It was my first time writing in third person. It was my first time taking a crack at storytelling in years.

The grammar is awful. Because it’s in present tense, my tenses and verbs are sort of messed up at times. It feels awkward. And if it’s not that, it’s the fact that I for some reason can’t spell for my life. It makes for some very embarrassing typos like “he pressed a quick piss to his forehead.” I also didn’t know that whines and wines were two very different things.

...

I used wines as a verb for most of the book. If I was writing in past tense, I probably would’ve caught onto that mistake 100 chapters ago.

That’s another thing, the book is actually 100 chapters long. Despite that though, it doesn’t really drag like the other books do because there’s a new problem that comes along with every age. There’s not many dead spots, but some people do lose interest in it after the two graduate high school which is around chapter 60 I want to say? There’s a table of contents in the beginning that separates the chapters by what grade of school they’re in and by age. It’s convenient. You’ll need it if you don’t feel like sitting through elementary school Jarchie. Or maybe you don’t like college Jarchie and you want to skip to adult Jarchie. I’m telling you, it’s convenient.

But back to the grammar thing, I didn’t know that most quotes didn’t end with periods at the time, and that’s a huge problem that doesn’t get corrected until maybe my fourth book. All the dialogue had periods at the end instead of commas. For instance:

“But you said I could,” Jughead whined.

^That’s correct.

However, this is what I did:

“But you said I could.” Jughead wines.

^That basically sums up how bad the grammar is throughout.

Though technically imperfect, it’s definitely still a good read. The plot is amazing. 116k reads should tell you that it’s worth the read if you can get past those mistakes. Although I’m being hard on myself about it now, no one really noticed it. If they did, they never called me out on it. Honestly, writing on Wattpad has low expectations so just separating paragraphs correctly boosts your writing into the good category. Honestly that’s my biggest pet peeve. I used to do it too, but I can’t read a book that has huge paragraphs of dialogue without a separation between which character is saying what. It gives me headaches.

There’s tons of mistakes in this book, trust me. However, I think I’m going to leave the mistakes there. I want to look back on it, pisses instead of kisses on foreheads and all.

Anyways, I spent a good few hours writing this review and I doubt most people are going to read this but it’s going on my blog because it’s an honest evaluation.

Honorable Mention

That sixth book you see in the first image? The one with the flowers on the cover? It’s called Alphabet Jarchie and it’s my ongoing one shot book. I take a word from every letter of the alphabet and write a one shot about it. Obviously I can’t really rank it with my fics, but the one shots are helping me cut to the chase in my writing, and I think my ideas are pretty good. So if you don’t feel like sitting through my longggggg fanfics (though they are pretty enticing but this is me being harsh) you can check out my one shots.

This was fun.

Ankle Biter | 03

pairing: taehyung x reader - single dad! au

warnings/genre: major fluff, major angst, smut eventually I’m sure because of my thirsty ass

summary: You swear that your job sucks, except for the guy who keeps coming in every morning to order himself a black coffee, and his kid a strawberry milk and chocolate muffin. When you and Taehyung have an awkward run-in at the cafe thanks to his kid, feelings start to emerge and so do the secrets.

words: 4.1k

Playlist | 01 | 02 | 04 | 05 | 06 | 07 | epilogue

moodboards: before & after

You looked down at the little boy, who was jumping excitedly up and down at the sight of you, the Pretty Coffee Girl and his dad together somewhere that wasn’t the shop.

“Pretty Coffee Girl? Does she have a name?” The woman asked accusingly, looking you up and down with a judgemental look on her face.

It was obvious who this was: Taeji’s maternal grandparents, and you vaguely remember the day you ran into Taehyung that he mentioned something about how they thought he was unfit to be a parent. At the thought, your blood boiled and your face flushed with regard for Taehyung over all.

“My name is Y/N,” you spoke with a discerning glare at the woman, turning ever so slightly to look at Taeji and crouching to his level. The little boy grinned at you, black bouncy hair shiny in the sunlight. He looked so much like Taehyung, there wasn’t anything you could pinpoint that made him look anything like his mother. You’ve never met Minsoo, and maybe the fact that her son didn’t look anything like her was a blessing. Taeji belonged with Taehyung, but it was obvious the kid’s grandparents didn’t think so.

“Hm. Well, we must be going. Oh, Taehyung, expect a call from my lawyer today after I speak to him about your…” Taeji’s grandma said, shoving a finger in Taehyung’s direction then slowly moving it to point at you, “...little situation you have going on here.”

Just as the three of you thought you were free from Grandma Choi’s intense glaring, she popped her head back in the room and said with a menacing smile, “Good parents don’t have one night stands.” Then disappeared down the hallway.

You and Taehyung stood there for a moment, dumbfounded, until the door slammed in the distance. Taeji was occupied on the floor, having taken out the hot wheels cars stowed away in his backpack and you looked down at him sadly, horrified that Taehyung was at war with these people for custody over his creation. You almost wanted to scoop Taeji up and say, “He’s mine until you all come to an agreement,” just to get him out of situations like the one that just happened.

But you didn’t, and all you could do was look to Taehyung who had seemed to turn to stone.

“Taehyung?” You asked quietly, looking up to his eyes. He was staring at the door where Mrs. Choi had once stood, insulting his parenting and decisions over his personal life. You inwardly groaned, confused as what to do next. So you turned farther and wrapped your arms around Taehyung’s waist, your chin digging into his shoulder.

“It’s gonna be alright,” You whisper, hugging him tighter as his arms come to hold your body against his. “I know,” He says shakily, before pulling away from you and looking down at his son.

“Hey, buddy, did Grandma give you breakfast? Do you want to go down to the hotel?” Taehyung said cheerily, his entire attitude and persona changing as the 5 year old looked up at his father with a boxy smile. “Can they put chocolate chips in pancakes?” Taeji asked, his words not quite yet pronounciated correctly.

Taehyung laughed and nodded as lean arms came to pick the little boy up and hoist him up, and at that moment Taeji’s father turned to you with a much shier smile. “You’re welcome to come, too, if you want.”

You thought about the night before, reminicsing in the way Taehyung touched you and brushed over your skin with his electric hands, the way his tongue molded with yours as you gasped into his mouth. Just being next to him and feeling the heat coming off of his skin made you want to melt, again, because you were falling for Taehyung, and hard.

Taehyung gave you a sheepish smile, much like the one from the restaurant the night before, when he gestured to the blue minivan in the back of the garage. You had hopped in no problem, even offering to buckle Taeji in as the little boy sang songs to himself and drove a toy car along the arm of his booster seat. “Ready to go, Taeji?” You said happily, patting his fluffy head as he beamed up at you.

“Pretty Coffee Girl, guess what? My tooth is loose,” He blurted, opening his mouth wide to show you the wiggly tooth in the front of his mouth. You laughed wholeheartedly, the little boy’s innocence shining through like rays of sunlight, so you leaned forward to get a good look at the loose tooth.

“Wow! Is this the first tooth you’re losing? Are you ready for the tooth fairy to come and leave you a present?” You singsonged, and Taeji nodded excitedly. You smiled before closing the door and getting in front. The feeling of nostalgia mulled over you like an ocean wave, and you looked over to grin at Taehyung. And that’s when you looked down.

“Uh. Taehyung, I’m in your shirt and basketball shorts.” Your voice flat, and Taehyung turned his head momentarily to rake down your body. “Oh,” he mumbled, slowing down at the stop sign on one of the side streets. “I can take you to your apartment so you can change.” He offered, and you nodded.

“Daddy, why is she wearing your clothes?” Taeji asked suddenly from the backseat, and you and Taehyung turned back to look at him. Taehyung visably swallowed hard, averting his eyes and turning back to the wheel to say, “She and I had a sleepover last night and she forgot her pajamas.”

You wanted to burst out laughing at Taehyung’s golden expression, his hands clenching agains the steering wheel. Despite Taeji’s awkward question, his father’s expression remains amused as he drives towards your apartment.

Despite the morning’s happenings, the day was bright and full of sunshine as it filtered through the car’s windows much like it had to the room this morning. You thought of the day you first met Taehyung, and when he dropped his phone on the ground thanks to your obvious clumsiness. Usually it was Namjoon who was the clumsy one, but something about Taehyung made the butterflies in your stomach ignite.

At the thought of your best friend, you dig around in your pocket for your cellphone and wrestle it out of it’s confines to power it on. Immediately, messages and missed calls flooded in from Namjoon, begging you to call him. You weren’t angry with him. He just needed to see that Taehyung was not what he was a year ago.

“Is that Namjoon?” Taehyung asked, glancing over at your buzzing phone. You nodded shyly, “Yeah. He’s worried because I haven’t called him since we went to the restaurant. “ You admitted, typing out a message to Namjoon in response to all of his frantic texts. You see Taehyung’s jaw clench from your answer out of the corner of your eye, but focusing on your best friend’s text messages only distracted you.

[Namjoonie: 9:24 PM] Can you just call me?

[Namjoonie: 9:56 PM] Y/N, I’m sorry I don’t know how many more times I can apologize

[Namjoonie: 10:17 PM] Where are you? You’re not at your apartment.

[Namjoonie: 11:01 PM] Dude, come on, where are you?

[Namjoonie: 1:38 AM] You’re not with that guy, are you?

[Namjoonie: 1:44 AM] NO WAY YOU SO ARE

[Namjoonie: 2:09 AM] Well..I’ll be here if you want to talk to me. I really am sorry, I miss you :(

[You: 9:14 AM] Sorry, Joon. I’m not mad. I’ll call you later.

Sighing, you put your phone on silent and shoved it back into the pocket of Taehyung’s basketball shorts right as he pulled up to your apartment in his minivan chariot. “I’ll be right back, just wait here,” You say, hopping out of the car and running into the building.

You make your way through the double doors and punch in the building code, only to whirl around at the voice of someone that made shivers run down your spine.

“Long time no see, huh, Y/N?” Jimin’s voice resounded around your brain, echoing as the memories came flooding back. All you wanted at that moment was to book it up the staircase and never see him again, because that’s what you promised yourself when you broke up with him in the first place. Jimin bruised your heart. There was no doubt about it - he left it battered and in pieces after you realized what he was doing, and it ended right then and there. So this? This was only going to make your head throb.

“Yeah. Sure.” You said flatly, turning around to continuously press the elevator button until it dinged and you stepped in, praying Jimin would leave you alone. There’s no reason for him to be here; literally, absolutely no reason and you were terrified that since he had run into you again, he wouldn’t stop.

Thankfully, you made it upstairs without having to sit in awkward conversation with your ex-boyfriend, and quickly ran into your apartment to change into jeans and sweatshirt.

Taehyung saw your face as you got back into the minivan. Shaken, forcibly blank, but he didn’t say anything as he stepped on the gas peddle and drove far away from your past.

The hotel was bustling. Waiters in crisp, white uniforms carried trays of crystal glasses full of orange mimosas around the expanse of the hotel’s fine restaurant, there was incessant, chirpy chatter in the air while the morning sunshine shone in through the large modern windows placed throughout the establishment that made you smile with delight.

You breathed in the air of bacon, eggs and hashbrowns as Taehyung carried his son in his arms, weaving through various strands of people coming in and out of the restaurant.

“Mr. Kim! Lovely to see you. The usual spot?” A man in a tuxedo said, holding a white iPad in his gloved hands. You were shocked at the formality this man held towards Taehyung, all while smiling and making silly faces at Taeji to get him to laugh.

“Yes, thank you.” Taehyung said, dipping in a slight bow as the man took off, prompting the three of you to follow him down the aisle until he brings you to a set of white, gold embellished double doors, pushing them aside with gentle hands as the room in front of you is revealed.

Glittering china littered the tables like leaves from a tree in the fall, hues of gold and bronze accenting the round room with small pockets of silver, like the chandler that hung above the entire place. There were four other couples in the room, and as you neared the table you watched Taeji’s eyes get wide and glimmer with excitement.

“Daddy, Jungmi is over there! Can I go play with her?” He says, little voice high pitched and legs struggling against Taehyung’s body. Along with Taehyung, your eyes cast over to the other table pressed up against the window. A young girl around Taeji’s age looked around at the voice that said her name, and immediately she turned to the man who was sitting across from her.

You couldn’t hear what she was saying, but Taehyung looked at you with a sweet smile and said, “Ah, that’s my good friend Jungkook over there. Taeji plays with his daughter a lot. Mind if we say hi?” He suggests. You’re about to answer with a mere nod as Taehyung reaches down and grabs your hand, making those ever familiar shocks of electricity shoot up your arm once again.

He grins at you, the same boxy smile you’ve become accustomed to as he drags you over to the table where a handsome (actually, more than handsome. Beautiful) man sat across from a cute little girl in a pink and white dress who looked up at the three new people at the foot of the table. “Tae!” She shouts, and Taeji is quick to struggle out of his dad’s arms before running off to the middle of the room to dance around with Jungmi.

“Taehyung. Nice to see you again, man,” Jungkook says with a grin as he stands up, leaning forward to shake Taehyung’s hand. Taehyung returns his gesture, a kind smile growing on his face as he begins to talk. “You too, it’s been awhile. How’s the company?” He asked.

Jungkook’s smile doesn’t falter as he looks over at Jungmi and Taeji playing on the luggage cart. “Really great. Come on over and visit sometime with Taeji, Jungmi’s always there with her nanny while I work.” He offers before his gaze settles on you.

“I’m Jungkook,” The man says immediately at the sight of you, and only then do you notice how muscular he actually is as he leans to shake your hand. There is a slight off feeling about him, more playboy and less fatherly than you thought. “Y/N.” You smile sweetly, shyly, as his grip tightens over yours.

“Are you two, uh, together? Jin’s gonna kick you out of the club now, Tae.” Jungkook laughs, shifting on his feet to glance over at his daughter, still playing peacefully with Taeji.

Taehyung’s face shifts from comfortable to slight panic as he looks over at you and stutters, “Uh - no, she’s just - coming to see the hotel and -”

Jungkook lets out a loud laugh before clapping Taehyung on the shoulder before leaning forward to attempt a not-so-whisper in his friends ear. “One night stand gone wrong, huh bud? Staying for breakfast, be careful ‘bout that.”

Your jaw goes slack at his words, hurt immediately filling your chest and anxiety rushing over you in waves. Had you overstayed your welcome? Should you have left when Taeji came home? You thought Taehyung had wanted you to stay, judging by his words this morning..

You’re welcome to come.

You should have left, oh god, you should have just left, and you’re ready to turn on your heel and catch a cab back to your apartment, where you’d curl up and groan at your insensitivity to social cues when a waitress with bright red hair comes up to the three of you.

“Can I get you guys a tab - oh, Mr. Kim! It’s great to see you.” She chirps, and your eyebrows furrow but you wipe away the thoughts and it replaces with curiosity. Taehyung bows slightly, and he looks nervous as his gaze switches from you, to the waitress then to Jungkook.

“Can you pull up a table so they can sit with us?” Jungkook says, shooting a bright, implied smile at the waitress, who returns it thoughtfully before nodding and calling a few other waiters to help her move a table.

As the table is pulled up and the kids come back to sit down, you’re left in between Taehyung and Jungkook, with the kids on the other side of the rectangular table. Chatter fills the room and you’ve picked up your menu, trying to decide if you should have Namjoon call you to get you out of this situation.

It’s not that you didn’t want to be around Taehyung - the night you spent there had been the best sex you’ve ever had and you could admit that the pillowtalk after the event really sealed your feelings, but what Jungkook said wouldn’t stop swarming your head like bees to a nest.

“Do you know what you’re getting?” Taehyung asked, his voice quiet as his body turned slightly over to you to point out random things on the menu. He didn’t seem nervous anymore - in fact, you wondered if it was just your mind imagining things that weren’t actually happening.

“Oh, I just had to come over here and tell you three that you’re such a cute little family! Your little boy is a carbon copy of his parents.” An old woman dressed in luxury clothing stands in front of the table, a light, botox smile plastered against her face as her words come out in high pitched strands, and the small smile on your face dropped immediately as you began to explain.

“No - we’re not -”

“Thank you very much.” Taehyung interjects with a bright smile, reaching above the table to settle his hand on top of yours. Your eyebrows pinch together again as you rip your hand from under his before you stand up, the chair skidding across the floor with ripe sound. Breathing felt hard in that moment, and you briskly walked past the woman as Taehyung, Jungkook and the kids stared at you walking away.

What the hell was that? You thought as you pushed your purse back on your shoulder, thoughts infiltrated with images of what just happened back there. You needed to think, to get out of there and stay away from Jungkook and the kids and especially Taehyung, because this was all moving weirdly fast.

You shake your head. What were you thinking? Although you weren’t a one night stand, you should have acted like one and left early as possible to avoid all this embarrassment. You felt like an idiot, just a plain old idiot as you walked out of the hotel doors and flagged a taxi.

“Y/N!” You heard Taehyung’s voice say, wavering in the wind but you paid no mind as you stepped farther out into the street, desperately hoping to get a taxi before you had to face your one night stand.

“Y/N, just wait,” Taehyung said, hand reaching out to grapple at your wrist. You’re pulled backwards and you slam into his chest, faces as close as they were as the two of you slept last night. Stepping backwards, you’re ready to throw some choice words at him but he stops you as he flags down a taxi for you. As it stops in front of where the two of you stood, you look up at him incredulously.

“If you want to go, go. What Jungkook said isn’t right, and I don’t think that about you and I didn’t have any bad intentions,” Taehyung says, out of breath from running after you. He takes in a deep breath before continuing. “I really, really wanted this to work out.”

You look down at your feet then up at Taehyung, before shaking your head. “I saw you look at that waitress. Sleep with her, too? I don’t even know you,” You snap, before opening the car door of the taxi, intent to drive to Namjoon’s apartment and bury yourself in his blankets and ice cream, but Taehyung’s hand shoots out again to grab yours.

“Then get to know me.” He says simply, and you let your hand go limp in his. Swallowing hard, you glance at the taxi patiently waiting for you to get in and tentatively yell, “Drive, drive, drive!” But Taehyung’s face stops you, his deep-set dark brown eyes holding you hostage even though you knew if you pulled away a third time, he wouldn’t come after you again.

“Fine.” You breathe, and he drops your hand. Taehyung steps aside, leaning against the taxi cab and handing him a bill before waving him off. “Don’t do that.” You say, looking over at Taehyung with obvious disdain.

“Why not?” He says curiously as he takes his place back in front of you again.

“I don’t need you to take care of me or give away your money or anything for me, okay?” You say, trying not to give away the annoyance in your voice. At this point you just wanted to go home, to call Taehyung another day. This was exhausting.

Taehyung bites his lip and looks away from your gaze. “Alright,” he sighs, running a hand through his hair. “Then just try for me, alright? I really do want this to work out. I feel like we have gotten off on the wrong foot.” He chides, but then he’s coming closer to you, his finger under your chin.

You nod, not sure where this is going to go as he steps away from you. “I’ll go get Taeji. We can head back and I can drop you off, yeah?” He asks.

“Why’d you let the taxi go? You don’t have to leave because of me. You said you hadn’t seen Jungkook in awhile.” The name on your tongue made your mouth go dry.

Taehyung rubs the back of his neck. “Yeah, and I saw him, so now it’s time to go.” He laughs. “He’s a lot sometimes. He got married young, like back in college, and his wife died in childbirth. He’s a good guy, just has some..tendencies now that he’s successful.”

Your opinion on Jungkook changed in that moment, even though you shouldn’t feel sadness for him you do. He obviously has been raising Jungmi since she was born, but what made him say those things?

You sigh inwardly, “I’ll come back in with you.” If you were going to be around Taehyung, there were bound to be more times Jungkook was around. And if you were going to be in Taeji’s life, you promised yourself you wouldn’t make it any harder than it already had to be.

It was three days later when Taehyung called you again. A Wednesday, the day you didn’t work, and Taehyung knew it and took total advantage.

The buzzing of your cellphone ignited a feeling in your stomach that you noticed appeared there the day you left the restaurant, Taehyung’s arm wrapped around your waist and Taeji hoisted up in the other. To anyone on the street, watching Taehyung tickle his son while you smiled and walked next to them would think you’re all a big, happy family, but it was quite the opposite.

“Hello?” You spoke into the phone, anticipating his voice bouncing through the speakers and when it did, you broke into a grin. The validation of your feelings for him solidified on Sunday, when he actually came after you, anxiety and drama and all.

“Do you want to come over? Taeji’s at preschool and I’m lonely,” Taehyung whined.

You laughed. “What, am I just a replacement for when Taeji’s not around? My, Taehyung, I’m offended. But honored.”

“Great, I’ll be there in five!” He shouted, then hung up. Wait, did that mean he was expecting you to say yes?

You rolled your eyes, giving your cat a final pat before walking towards the door. “I’ll be back later, Misty,” You sing, getting silence in response as you walk out of the house, humming the tune of your ringtone.

You stood at the edge of the sidewalk, having waved to your doorman already and perched yourself to wait and watch for Taehyung to drive up and usher you in the car. It’s almost as if Sunday never happened - at least the bad parts - and after you walked back in and sat down between Jungkook and Taehyung, things seemed a lot more normal and less tense, surprisingly.

So you waited. And waited. It was at least 20 minutes later by the time you picked up your phone and finally decided to call Taehyung after much debate, wondering if maybe the traffic was just bad or he got caught up doing something. When you put the phone to your ear, the ringtone went on and on until finally, there was a click.

“Taehyung? Are you coming?” You say, slightly bothered, wondering why he hadn’t called you, but the only thing you can hear is his ragged breathing on the other end. Your voice got quieter, “Tae?”

There was sudden sniff on the line and then Taehyung’s tearful voice came through the speaker. “T-The lawyer called me, a-and they’re going to take Taeji away from me,” He stuttered, and immediately your heart dropped in your chest. The anger boiled in your veins as you tried to get him to talk to you more.

“W-What do you mean? Who’s going to take him away from you?” You question, looking around and stepping out to try and catch a taxi to Taehyung’s house. You were terrified he was going to do something he shouldn’t, and even though you didn’t know him to be unpredictable, the wavering of his voice made you worried.

“Minsoo’s parents, they t-told me the court date that re-evaluates custody over Taeji is in a four weeks, Y/N, they’re going to take him away from me,” Taehyung sniffed, and if your heart wasn’t already in two pieces, it was now in a billion as it shatters from the way you can imagine him looking, hunched over on the floor in his apartment or in his car with his forehead against the steering wheel.

The strong, sweet Taehyung you knew that came into the coffee shop everyday at 9 AM sharp was no where to be found. He hadn’t come into the shop at all since the day he asked you on a date, and if you had told the girl standing at the counter then that she’d be consoling Kim Taehyung about his custody rights over his son within a few days, she’d laugh. But somehow, moving this fast made your heart satisfied, because the only things you had known in your life were order and precision.

It’s thanks to Taeji that the two of you had become closer. It’s thanks to Taeji that you wondered about Taehyung and your nickname Pretty Coffee Girl all night. Taeji was Taehyung’s world.

“Alright, okay, just stay in your apartment and I’ll be there as soon as I can. Don’t go get Taeji yet, okay?”

“Please come quickly.” He spoke, and with that, the line went dead.
