“It’s like they don’t actually listen to her or her songs” ……. Bitches be trippin
Here is some lyrics from HER songs off the top of my head btw…
SHADE NEVER MADE ANYBODY LESS GAY
Sit quiet by my side in the shade. And not the kind that’s thrown, i mean the kind under where a tree has grown ( no one asked for this clarification btw and as in her publicist tree Paine covers up-shades any rumors of being gay?)
Your finger on my hairpin trigger
too in love to think straight
Your braids like a pattern. Love you to the moon and to Saturn.
Everybody’s watching her but she’s looking at you
The lips I used to call home, so scarlet
it’s new the shape of your body
Wear you like a necklace
No one knows how much I miss you
bet i can still melt your world argumentative, antithetical, dream girl
then you won’t have to cry, or hide in the closet
you can want who you want, boys & boys and girls & girls!
why are you mad? when you could be GLAAD?” (it’s literally spelled GLAAD in the lyrics on spotify I can’t make this up)
we're a crooked love, in a straight line down
save your dirtiest joke for me and at every table, I save you a seat… I’m sorry, but she wants a man sitting on her? 😐🙄
I don’t want to keep secrets just to keep you
big reputation, ooh you and me would be a big conversation
All we are is skin and bone, trained to get along Always going with the flow, but you're friction
The rest of the world was in black & white (straight, see straight pride flag), but we were in screaming color (queer, LGBTQ+ pride flag)
What’s it like to brag about raking in dollars and getting bitches and models?
Like a rainbow with all of the colors you’ll never find another like me!
It’s okay we’re the best of friends……aaanyway
I want to transport you to somewhere the culture’s clever, confess my truth In swooping, sloping, cursive letters
don’t you worry your pretty little mind
I got a boyfriend, he’s older than us. I haven’t seen him in a couple of months. (Bearding much?)
Your lover in the foyer doesn’t even know you.
Bad bad boy shiny toy with a price you know that I bought it
don’t step on OUR gowns
If you never touched me, I would've Gone along with the righteous If I never blushed, then they could've Never whispered about this And if you never saved me from boredom I could've gone on as I was But, Lord, you made me feel important And then you tried to erase us
What would you do if they never found us out
You showed me colours you know I can’t see with anyone else
Seems like there’s always someone who disapproves, they’ll judge it like they know about me and you
The entirety of lavender haze
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
🫥 come at us swifties.
Why in the world would they agree to the stunt… I wonder when they gain absolutely nothing from the attention put on people whose names are attached to a WORLD renowned superstar…….. 🤑🤑🤑

Let It Snow
One Shot
Jey Uso x Black Female OC! (Mila)
Rating: 18+
Warning: Smut; oral, sex, fluff,
Summary: It's Christmas Eve and Main Event Jey Uso is upset that the trip that he planned for his girlfriend Mila is not off to a good start. Frustrated, Jey goes live on his Instagram complaining about the snow. Now going through a snow storm the couple decide to make the best of it..
Tumblr media
Let it snow!
“Yo’…… What is this shit? All mountains…… Yo, this that stuff ya’ll don’t see though,” Jey sighed full of frustration as we were going through a snowstorm warning. “Come on babe, we’re almost there,” I sighed as he ended his IG story.
“I’m sorry baby, I’m just frustrated nothin’ is goin’ right. Our first rental broke down, and I almost missed the show tonight. Now with this rental, they let damn third and second-row seats down to inspect them and now they stuck, looks like we drivin’ a bed,” Jey said as I looked in the backseat. 
He had a point, but if he knew what I wanted to do on those seats, I don’t think he would mind.
“Babe, it’s fine at least they were able to get us this SUV at the last minute and they cut the price down,” I said trying to see the good in the situation.
“We could have been stranded in that town until after Christmas, but the rental place came through at least on that part,” I said trying to point out what we should be thankful for.  
“Yeah, they did so I’ll give them that, but the hits just keep coming.  How does a snowstorm warning come as the snow is falling? We stuck drivin’ like old people make love, slow as snails,” he ranted as I bit back a smirk at his analogy. 
“Look just breathe, It’s ok baby. Everything is working out, it’s just takin’ us a little longer than planned to get to the cabin,” I said as he kissed my hand.
“I know I’m trippin’ and I’m sorry.  I just wanted something better than this for our first Christmas trip together Mila.  It’s been a disaster, nothin’ has gon’ right at all,” Jey said glancing at me as I played with his hair.
“Jey, you can’t help what happened with the rental and you can’t control the weather. I’m just happy we’re here together," I said as he sighed, rubbing his hand over his beard.
“You right, but I still should have just requested the house show off today. We could have been warm in the cabin, and watching the snow fall instead of driving in it,” he said caressing my leg.
“Uh no, you shouldn’t have, the fans loved you tonight. Many people got those tickets as Christmas gifts and you guys made so many little kids dreams come true tonight. Never take that for granted because in an instant it can be gone,” I said as he smiled at me.
“I just love you da hell outta you, you know dat right," he said glancing at me as I blushed. 
Unbuckling my seatbelt, I leaned over slowly caressing his chin, gently kissing him on the neck as he groaned in pleasure.
“See you startin’ shit, don’t make me throw yo’ ass in the backseat and have my way wit you,” his deep voice warned as I smirked against his neck before returning to my seat looking innocently at him.  
“Then you lookin’ at me like that. I’m serious Mila, you gon’ bring in Christmas full of dick and carpet burns on yo’ ass, keep playin’ he said as I laughed.
“Don’t threaten me with a good time, you gon’ have to stand on business you keep talkin’ like that now. I just wanted to tell you, that I love you too,” I said turning up the radio as he smirked keeping his eyes focused on the highway.
Jey’s POV
“Everyone here at the quiet storm would like to thank you all for tuning in on this cold, snowy Christmas Eve. Tis the season to be with the ones you love.  So, fellas grab ya ladies and make some beautiful memories,” the DJ said as Let It Snow by Boyz II Men and Brian McKnight began playing. “A’ight ya’ll set the mood,” I said as the slow ballad filled the car.
Let it snow
Let it snow
Let it snow, let it snow
“I know right, it doesn’t even feel like Christmas until I hear this. It’s one of my favorite Christmas songs,” Mila said leaning back in her seat, humming as I smiled at her.
Having an Idea, I looked at my road markers and turned off the highway. “What are you doing?” Mila asked as I backed off the road a little in between two trees turning on the brights making the deserted road covered with beautiful white snow glow.
“You’ll see baby,” I whispered turning up the music before I got out and went around to her side of the car, opening her door. 
“Jey, it’s cold as hell and we already ain’t dressed for this type of weather. You got on a hoodie, and I got on this dress,” she stressed as I laughed grabbing her blanket off her lap and helping her out of the car.
Hey, it's another Christmas Holiday
It's a joyous thing let the angels sing.
Cause we're together.
“You heard the DJ, he told me to grab yo’ fine ass and make some memories,” I said leading her to the front of our rental as she smiled shyly at me.
“You are just full of surprises,” she whispered as I twirled her around, wrapping her blanket around us as we swayed to the music. “Gotta keep you on your toes,” I said as she laughed.
“Nah, what you doin' is makin’ me fall even harder for you Mr. Fatu,” Mila whispered running her fingers through my hair. I felt my heart swell as her beautiful eyes held me captive.
“That means I’m on the right track Vaivai,” I whispered as she blushed at my use of my native tongue.
We got a thing here, can't let it slip away
Though outside is rain and sleet
When our bodies meet...
I don't care 'bout the weather
“So, you think I’m beautiful?” Mila asked as the light shone on her beautiful face making her even more stunning than she already was.
The snow seemed to be falling harder and I knew we should get back on the road, but I didn’t care I was in the moment with her and that was all that mattered.
“You my beautiful angel,” I confessed, pulling her closer as she laid her head on against my chest, slowly grazing her fingertips across my chest making my heart race.  
Let it snow, let it snow
Outside it's cold but the fire's blazin'
So baby let it snow
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
Feeling her shiver against me I wrapped her blanket tighter around us as she looked up at me smiling brightly.
“I would have never dreamed we would be out here dancin’ in the snow, I know you hate it,” Mila said as I gently kissed her.
“It seems to be growin’ on me…Especially since you here wit me,” I said, her hands caressing my face as I fell deeper into the beautiful pool of her brown eyes as she shyly nibbled on her bottom lip.
Mila's POV
Talk about a core memory…. Jey’s strong arms around my waist holding me close as we danced in the snow. I felt safe and loved, something he always promised me I would feel if I just gave him a chance.
I wanna wrap you up, baby
Then you'll see you're the only present I need
There's so much more
Waiting for you in store
 “You just keep biting dat lip, you know what that does to me, Mila,” Jey moaned gently caressing my lower lip with his thumb, his words making my pussy quiver.
“Stand on business then ma ave au,” I whispered kissing his thumb, slowly opening my plump lips, swirling my tongue around it as he growled lowly.
From this precious day
I can gladly say
There's no place that I'd rather be
“Mmm, you want me to stand on business and take you? That what you want baby?" Jey asked as I released his thumb. "Yes," I panted breathlessly as he used his thumb to once more caress my lips before finally taking me in a slow sensual kiss.
My knees became weaker by the second as we explored each other’s mouths, desperate to get closer. Three weeks had been too long for us both.
“I been dreamin’ bout you and what I’d do when I saw you again. You ready for me baby?” Jey asked, tortuously moving his kisses to my shoulder, playing with the straps on my dress.
And oh, you are my everything, come a little closer
God must have sent you down from heaven
Let it snow, let it snow
My hands trembling as I gripped his shirt. “Mmm, Yes, I want you so bad,” I moaned into the blistery night air unafraid to say what I wanted and needed.
Jey growled suddenly grasping my thighs, wrapping my legs around his waist, carrying me back to our SUV as I nibbled on his neck.
I don't care 'bout the weather baby
All I need you to do is be with me, baby
Let it snow
As long as you're here with me
Let it snow
“Once again Merry Christmas from the crew here at the Quiet Storm goodnight, everybody,” I heard the DJ faintly say as I feasted on Jey’s neck, his moans urging me to have my way.
Carrying me around to the back of the SUV, Jey opened the liftgate and gently laid me down as I slid back towards the front, avoiding our luggage.
 “Shit, the lights. We don’t need anybody stopping thinkin’ we need some help. We ain’t got much time, and you betta be naked when I get back Mila,” his deep sexy voice commanded as he ran back around to the driver’s side.
I quickly discarded my clothes laying on my blanket and using my dress as a pillow.
 I felt a blast of heat above me, feeling thankful he turned the heat up. Planting my feet and opening my legs I closed my eyes in anticipation.
Hearing the liftgate close, my breath hitched and my heart began to race as I felt Jey’s hand caressed my legs.
“Fuck, you look so gorgeous like this, waiting for me to take you,” Jey moaned as I trembled feeling him between my thighs lightly running his fingertips across my hips.
“Baby please,” I begged not ashamed in the slightest as his lips lightly brushed across mine.
“Look at me Mila, I want you to watch me… Watch me pleasin’ you baby,” Jey moaned grasping my chin, making me look at him as I trembled against him.
“Jey don’t tease me,” I whimpered against his lips as I felt him smirk. “I wouldn’t dream of it beautiful,” he whispered slowly inching into my welcoming fountain.
“Mmm, Fuck!” I exclaimed as each thrust was better than the last as I felt him growing more and more inside me.
“Yea, you love feelin’ dat dick rock up in dat pussy, don’t you baby?” Jey asked biting back a moan, clawing his back.
“Yes, baby, fuck yes,” I moaned, my back arched in ecstasy exposing my ever-sensitive neck. Growling in appreciation Jey began sucking greedily on my neck as my pleasure continued to climb higher with each powerful thrust.
“That's it, that's what I wanted...Just like dat Mila, you beautiful baby,” he praised as I shivered, his teeth lightly grazing my neck.
 I began to move against him as he hissed, stilling my hips.
“Not yet, I don’t want you to cum yet,” he declared sitting back on his knees, one hand grasping my hips, sinking slowly and deeply inside me setting a steady pace as the other lightly grasped my neck.
“Baby…babybabybabyjey. Mmm, you so deep,” I purred as he took me how he wanted.
“Mmhmm and you takin’ it all Mila. Fuck!  You such a good girl, I love dat shit,” Jey praised me as my eyes rolled back in pleasure.
“I love it too,” I proclaimed, sitting up wrapping my arms around his neck, and bouncing to meet his thrusts. Claiming his lips in a powerful kiss, our tongues met again with urgency.
"Fuck, Mmhm! Bounce on dat dick and show me how much you missed it", Jey whispered, intertwining our hands givin' me leverage as I bounced with wild abandon, on a mission for us both.
"Mmm, you like that baby," I groaned flicking my tongue against his lips as a low growl escaped them.
“Yes! Fuck yes,” Jey moaned, releasing my hands, lowering me down, and spreading my legs wider. His thrusts never faltered as a strangled moan fell from his lips as he snapped his hips forward, going deeper inside me.
"Jey! Shit!" I gasped, drowning in pleasure as he pleased me. His intense gaze holding me captive.
“Uh huh, I ain’t forgot bout that spot baby, fuck dat pussy getting’ even wetter for me. You close ain’t you?” Jey moaned as our hips pounded against each other.
Yes! I'm so close," I cried, my eyes glazed over in pleasure as I finally gave in and allowed them to close. Biting my bottom lip, I shyly put my hands over my face.
“Look at me, Mila stop hiding from me. If you don’t, I’ll stop,” Jey declared as I forced my eyes open." Jey, please,” I moaned as he began rubbing his thumb and forefinger against my clit sending shockwaves through my body.
“I got you, baby, I promise,” Jey moaned as I began moving against him again as he groaned. “Mmm, I know baby,” I moaned as his fingers swirled around my clit again before he traced my lips with the same two fingers.
“Open up for Daddy baby,” he whispered, slowly slipping his fingers inside my mouth. Groaning, I greedily began sucking on his fingers as he smirked at me.
“You taste good, don’t you? Let Daddy see,” He whispered, with a carnal gaze rendering me speechless as he pulled out abruptly.
 Whimpering at the loss of him, Jey threw my legs back, and greedily began sucking my clit between his lips as I squirmed beneath him. “Oh my God Jey!” I cried  gripping his hands on my legs as he controlled my body.
“Yea, It’s me, baby, It's been too long since I've tasted you," he moaned curling his two fingers against my g-spot.
“Yes, it has! Eat your pussy, baby,” I praised as he devoured me whole as I used as I began moving against his mouth with a purpose.
“Mmmhm, you taste so good, I been waitin’ on this,” he proclaimed curling his fingers even faster as he flattened his tongue lapping it against my clit his gaze never leaving mine.
“Oh, fuck! Yes, get nasty with that shit, lick it all up baby,” I purred as Jey growled, simultaneously moving his fingers and tongue together even faster in sync.
 My body whimpering in need, steadily climbing heights I didn’t even know existed until I had nowhere else to go.
“God, I love you!” I cried reaching my peak, spilling into his awaiting mouth as he drank my essence humming in satisfaction.
“Mmm, I love you too baby,” he moaned caressing my thigh as I fought to catch my breath.
“That was amazing ba- Shit!” I exclaimed as he entered me swiftly towering over me, his lips overpowering mine we tasted each other.
“Yes, it was but I ain’t done wit you yet,” Jey moaned thrusting long and deep inside me as felt my body begin to tingle all over again.
“I want you to cum when I tell you to. Do you hear me?” Jey grunted nibbling on one of my nipples while caressing the other before giving the other the same equal attention as I continued to melt into him.
I knew Jey felt I was close, as he began thrusting harder. "Jeyjeyjeyjey….…. Oh, baby!” I gasped almost chanting, pushing at his lower abdomen. Each thrust was more powerful than the last as he went deeper, rendering me unable to think.
“Move yo’ hand, why you tryin’ to run,” Jey groaned biting his lower lip never stopping his thrusts as I felt myself about to tip over the edge of ecstasy again.
“Stop runnin’ Mila, all this is just for you… Don't be scared, get your nut,” Jey moaned moving my hands as he went deeper.
“Mmm, fuck, I can take it. I can take it all ” I moaned as Jey leaned down, grasping my throat, taking me in a possessive kiss as he continued to take me deeper and deeper.
“I know you can take it all baby. You look so gorgeous takin’ it too,” he groaned against my lips as I writhed beneath him, both of us chasing climax.
“Mmm, right there. I'm bout to cum,” I moaned as he trembled against me as my pussy pulsed, engulfing him tighter.
“Shit! Me too, cum wit me beautiful,” Jey moaned as I fell apart in his arms “I’m cummin’!" I exclaimed as we went over the cliff together slowly falling back to earth as he collapsed in my arms, his head laying on my chest as I played with in his hair.
Totally spent and trying to catch my breath, I looked up at the clock on the radio, damn 12:30 a.m.
“Merry Christmas,” I whispered as Jey gently kissed me. “Merry Christmas baby,” he whispered, sighing against my lips as his phone rang and interrupted our moment.
“Damn it’s Jimmy,” Jey said reaching up front, getting his phone as I started putting my clothes back on.
“What’s up, Uce,” he said putting Jimmy on speaker phone, pulling up his sweats and putting his hoodie back on.
“Aye, where the hell ya’ll at?  We just got to our cabin and I didn’t see ya’ll's SUV next door. Ya’ll left before we did, is everything good Jimmy asked as Jey sighed.
“Yea, we good, Uce,” Jey said as he stared at me licking his lips as I blushed, not believing what we had just done.  
“I checked your location and you been in the same spot for awhile. Ya’ll didn’t break down, did you?” Jimmy asked as I shook my head.
“Nah, we bout to get back on the road, Uce, we just stopped for awhile the snow was getting to me,” Jey said as I raised a brow at him. “Damn liar,” I whispered as he smirked.
“Uh huh, more like seeing Mila again was getting’ to yo’ ass,” Jimmy snickered as I climbed back into my seat as Jey opened the liftgate and went back around to the driver’s side to get in.
“Bro, chill we on the way, and the snow ain’t too bad now so it shouldn’t take us long,” Jey said starting the SUV as I bundled back up under my blanket.
“A’ight well text me when ya’ll get here, maybe we can all do breakfast a little later on today,” Jimmy said as they exchanged their goodbyes.
“Well let’s gon’ knock this last hour out,” I said as Jey smiled at me.
Yea, let’s do that cause when we get to the cabin….Oouu you in for a long ass week. I doubt we gon’ be goin next door to have breakfast with Jimmy and Trin later on today.. Maybe tomorrow but definitely not today,” he said as I laughed.
“Well I’ll hold you to that,” I said as he kissed my hand. We had another hour to ride in this snow but one thing was for sure…
This Christmas was definitely shaping up to be one to remember.

‘You got me some type of way
Ain't used to feelin' this way
I do not know what to say
“so, mates, i think m’finally getting somewhere with lils!” the tone of excitement thickly lacing the bespectacled boys words. “m’sure of it.” he continued, a bit of confusion in his words but still the same amount of excitement as before.
his brows were furrowed and he picked at the skin of his fingernails trying to relieve himself, further wringing his hands a few times before looking at his friends for their input.
“m’so— m’so happy for you, prongs. really, that’s great.” your voice faltering as you continued to speak, trying to scoundrel up a tone of excitement that would’ve played off well enough. instead all you were feeling stone cold truth of dejection.
But I know I shouldn't think about it
Took one fuckin' look at your face
Now I wanna know how you taste
Usually don't give it away
But you know I'm out here thinkin' 'bout it’
a fake smile plastered your face, trying to push back the tears that wanted to desperately prick at your eyes. you tried to further block them from escaping your waterline as you hear the boy jabber close to every single day about the red head he had been continuously fawning over.
the day went subsequently normal; potions, transfiguration, break period, plan pranks and dinner. but unfortunately for you, you didn’t have the privilege to share a messy dormitory with the four other boys leaving their conversations and discussions open about you and more your feelings.
“d’you think y/n was a bit off today?” peter asked abruptly from the place he sat on the oak wood floor, catching the attention of the three other boys who were seated on their separate twin beds. furthering to retain all memories of you from that day attempting to identify where you might’ve seemed ‘off.’
‘Then I realize she's right there
And I'm at home like, "Damn, this ain't fair"
Break up with your girlfriend
Yeah, yeah, 'cause I'm bored
“maybe a lunch a bit, she looked a little melancholy, i guess.” sirius answered this time, recalling the memory of you speaking in a very disconsolate tone. “y’think it’s anything major, or just stress?” he questioned again, beginning to worry about his close friend.
“dunno, i don’t think so.” the lycanthrope added to the conversation. he recalled james’ new confession about the red headed girl, and your extremely unhappy expressions following; of course noticing a bit at the time when it was occurring but just assuming you had a bad day with evan rosier pestering you for a date.
maybe... maybe she— but they’re best friends? his thoughts were extremely close to scrambled, remus was an observer, he was clever and sharp-witted; but this, he couldn’t figure out.
You could hit it in the mornin'
Yeah, yeah, like it's yours
I know it ain't right
“oi, y/n!” a deep voice called in the distance, putting your light jog to a stop in the middle of the courtyard leaving you to stand in the grass. swiftly turning around you were met with the taller fawn-haired boy, who looked tremendously determined.
“i’ve, uh, ‘ve got to ask you something, and it may seem foolish, but i think i just still ask you.” his voice hurried like his panting breaths from running across the school to find you, asking around the library and your dorm mates.
“yeah, moons, sure, anything.” affirming the boy who looked a bit confused, and worried but you didn’t know if it was for his sake or yours.
he grabbed your wrist in his palm pulling you on the prickly grass over to someone more private like to speak with you. “d’you— d’you like prongs? more than friendly...” the boy sputtered, further acknowledging your blown eyes like someone had just committed murder in-front of you.
But I don't care
Break up with your girlfriend
Yeah, yeah, 'cause I'm bored’
“i— uhm, well, that’s a bit— why d’you think— remus, what the fuck!” your words taking a halt every few seconds with a recurrent sputter trying to figure out where the question had even came from, or how he even knew.
“i saw— i saw the way you acted at lunch the other day. i jus’ wanted to know if it’s true.” he asserted, no present lingering touches of judgement in his tone.
remus knew what it was like to be judged, so whenever you had the urge to jabber out all of your problems he was the boy you had always ran too first. knowingly, or not. but he felt particularly disappointed in himself that you hadn’t trusted him with this potential secret.
‘This shit always happen to me (Yeah)
Why can't we just play for keeps?
Practically on my knees
“yeah— i do.” you admitted with a breath, guilt taking a pang at your heart. and anger taking a swig at your brain; how could you be so fucking stupid.
“remus, but you can’t— you can’t tell him, or anything.” your tone was hushed, and only meant for remus’ ears. feeling a tinge of embarrassment warm onto your cheeks, knowing someone you loved clearly didn’t reciprocate those feelings.
“i swear, i won’t. but m’here for you, i don’t want you feeling like you can’t tell me anything.” his words soft, and his tone genuine. why couldn’t you have fallen for someone like him? but instead, you crush on someone who was in love with someone else.
But I know I shouldn't think about it
You know what you're doin' to me
You're singin' my songs in the streets, yeah, yeah
Actin' all innocent, please
“c’mon, y/n.” he beckoned you to follow him, resting his arm on the curvature of your shoulder feeling his side press against your smaller one and guiding you to transfiguration with him.
why? why did you have to be so damn foolish? because it was her, with her beautiful red locks, her perfect maroon lipstick, her exceedingly amazing grades, her ability to be silly for a moment and loosen up. why couldn’t you be her? why couldn’t you have what she has.
it’s because it’s simple; you weren’t lily evans and you were never going to be.
When I know you out here thinkin' 'bout it
Then you realize she's right there
And you're at home like, "Damn, she can't compare"’
“guys! guys! she said yes!” james announced whilst scuttling across the mahogany floor of the common room. his actions at a halt flopping his body over the scarlet-red couch and a grin on his lips.
“who said what?” sirius muttered, glancing up from the map for a moment before looking back down in ascertainment.
“lily-pad! i asked her on a date and she was like, ‘yeah, fine, potter. but if you’re late i’ll kill you.’ just like that!” he pretended to play out the conversation for a moment, his thrilled movements and inflection almost animated from how happy he felt.
‘Break up with your girlfriend
Yeah, yeah, 'cause I'm bored
You could hit it in the mornin'
Yeah, yeah, like it's yours
I know it ain't right’
remus briefly glanced at you, concern swirling in his hazel irises, meanwhile, your eyes widened for a moment. you plastered yet another fake grin onto your lips, about to congratulate your crush on winning a date with his all time infatuation.
“prongs! oh my merlin, that’s amazing, i’m so happy for you!” putting on the best impression of exhilaration for your best friend, the act only remus could piece together and break apart.
“no way! prongs, mate, i knew you could do it!” sirius spoke, his tone fein for his best friend who had been in a pinning coma for the last few years.
‘But I don't care
Break up with your girlfriend
Yeah, yeah, 'cause I'm bored
With your girlfriend, girlfriend, girlfriend, girlfriend’
the boys continued to congratulate the boy, remus only giving him a nod and a smile. the marauders paying no mind to it and instead james merrily talking about the red head; his red head.
you weren’t his, and you never would be.
yet another realization struck you, the urge and need to move on present in your nervous system almost begging you to find someone else and to hide away from all the pain that could swallow you whole.
‘With your girlfriend
With your girlfriend, girlfriend, girlfriend, girlfriend
You could say I'm hatin' if you want to
But I only hate on her 'cause I want you’
you were now sat on the smooth ivory bedding that perfectly hugged your bed, remus’ body right beside yours. except you weren’t comfortable, you wanted to cry a valley of tears that could’ve lasted a life time.
“why is it her? why couldn’t he want me, am i not enough?” you spoke through broken sobs, feeling remus’ agile hands rub up and down the column of your back.
“you’re enough, y/n/n. he’s a bloody git for not seeing that.” remus spoke, sponging a kiss on your hairline. he felt the wet tears graze his shoulder, slightly contracting at the cold feeling but paying no mind to them as he comforted you.
‘Say I'm trippin' if you feel like
But you without me ain't right
You could call me crazy 'cause I want you
And I never even ever fuckin' met you
Say I'm trippin' and it ain't right
But you without me ain't nice’
“m’the bloody git! i fell in love with m’best friend who’s in love with someone else! next thing you know i’m accidentally setting dumbledores beard on fire, and accidentally spawning voldemort for christ’s sake!” your words mumbled and obstruct from the tears that had over come you.
you whipped your face free from tears for a moment, basically scrubbing the black colour of your mascara down your cheeks. “you’re not alone, you know? m’right here.” his tone, yet again, sincere.
you felt undeserving of his coddling, that your messy puppy love was so little compared to his issues. “i can tell your belittling your problems right now, you’re aloud to be upset.” he whispered, trying to assure you all he could, whilst disrupting you from your senile thoughts.
‘Break up with your girlfriend
Yeah, yeah, 'cause I'm bored
You could hit it in the mornin'
Yeah, yeah, like it's yours
I know it ain't right
But I don't care’
“merlin, she’s fantastic.” the brunette finished his third speech of the day on how ‘amazing’ lily is. yeah as if him pining after her wasnt enough, then what the hell was this?
the devil poking at you for cheating on your herbology test in first year, the time you accidentally tripped peter when rushing to potions, maybe it was the time you put belching power in sirius’ drink everyday for a week because he said you had a flat arse?
what the hell did you do to deserve this incessant torture that had been inflicted upon you. we’re you being dramatic? probably. but the boy you were quite literally in love with could not stop talking about how he wanted to ask another female to be with him, companionship, life, marriage, children. he wanted everything with her.
‘Break up with your girlfriend
Yeah, yeah, 'cause I'm bored
With your girlfriend, girlfriend, girlfriend, baby, girlfriend
With your girlfriend’
but then again it was also extremely simple.
he just simply didn’t want you.
he wanted lily fucking evans.
‘With your girlfriend, girlfriend, girlfriend, girlfriend
With your girlfriend’

Jo looked at her phone “Oh shit! Ight I’m coming now” she said as she grabbed her music phone to stop the music.
“Damn I didn’t know my hair would take that long”
Jo grabbed her 4’s and ran down the stairs
“Dis nigga really outside”
“Bro why you ain’t call earlier. I would have been done sooner” she said walking up to the car “ cuz I knew yo ass was gon talk like you always do” he said “ Fuck you, open the door” “ Not until you back up” he said.

“you wanna play something else?” Jo asked “that’s foul. You gave me the fucked up controller” Erik said looking at the accessory “you picked the controllers when we started. And I got the busted one.” She said turning it around to show the blue tape in the back. Erik sucked his teeth and looked away “oh Ight. Order a pizza since you can’t see me in this game.” She said as she mushed him and got up to pee.
“She lucky I love her”

Part 3: Snuggle in and buckle up for a long read. 😬
Reputation 2017 - her final required album with BMR (2014-2017 3 years after 1989)
…Ready For It? (also see cowboy like me on evermore)
* Knew he was a killer first time that I saw him wonder how many girls he had loved and left haunted...Knew the beard (maybe Joe?) was gay; wondered how many girls he had to pretend with?
* But if he’s a ghost then I can be a phantom holdin him for ransom...She can use him to cover her relationship with Karlie (also see New Romantics)
* Some boys are tryin too hard he don’t try at all though younger than my exes but he act like such a man so I see nothing better keep him forever like a vendetta...Some of her beards actually tried to make the relationship legit but he doesn’t try at all, maybe because he is also gay, so she can see staying with him until it’s over
* In the middle of the night, in my dreams you should see the things we do. In the middle of the night in my dreams I know I’m gonna be with you, so I’ll take my time...She knows in the end she will be with Karlie so she’s just going to ride this out
* Knew I was a robber first time that he saw me stealing hearts and runnin off and never saying sorry but if I’m a thief then he can join the heist and we’ll move to an island.... Possible reference to Karlie’s bearding with Josh and him knowing they are together and being part of the whole plan?
* He can be my jailer Burton to this Taylor...Nod to Elizabeth Taylor and her relationship with Richard Burton * Karlie’s middle name is Elizabeth * Burton to this Taylor - Josh will marry Karlie to quiet the rumors of her and Karlie’s relationship therefore he is Taylor’s “jailer” keeping the “cage” in place. Back to that recurring theme..cages..(see so it goes, this is me trying, and cowboy like me)
* Baby let the games begin...Here we go...start of the end game by playing more games
End Game
* I wanna be your endgame I wanna be your first string I wanna be your A-Team... She wants to be able to be public with Karlie and not the “secret”
Could the End Game be them getting through the final years of the BMR contract and possible other contracts (Karlie with Scooter and Josh). Did Taylor possibly sign a 3 album obligation to UMG which is why she busted out 3 albums in 1 year (Lover/folklore/evermore) to make “End Game” “New Year’s Day” 2021? There seems to be a countdown between the years of album releases...1989-reputation (3) rep-lover (2) and lover-folklore/evermore (1)
* Big reputation, big reputation ooh you and me would be a big conversation... If they came out now everyone would really be talking about it even though there are currently rumors
What kind of big conversation would really come of her and Joe Alwyn? Why would being in a heterosexual relationship need to be kept such a secret? What’s so taboo about it? And why would it need to be a secret when the public narrative is that you are in a relationship with him already?
* I hit you like bang we tried to forget it but we just couldn’t...Karlie and Taylor’s chemistry is too much to disregard or act like it was just a temporary thing, they are each other’s lobsters and they couldn’t quit each other.
* And I bury hatchets, but I keep maps of where I put them... She’s going to go along with the plan but she won’t forget who made her have to do it
* And I can’t let you go your handprints on my soul It’s like your eyes are liquor like your body is gold...again Karlie’s astrological sign is Leo and the Leo color is Gold…she’s love drunk on her eyes and she’s left a mark on her forever (see This Love and Dress)
* You’ve been calling my bluff on all my usual tricks so here’s the truth from my red lips...Taylor tries to push Karlie away or talk herself out of her feelings but Karlie calls her on her bullshit
I Did Something Bad
* I never trust a playboy but they love me so I fly ‘em all around the world and I let them think they saved me...Playboy as in boy she uses as her beard (play things for her to use- Don’t Blame Me) they think they can be the one to change/save Taylor (make her straight?) or possibly that by them going along with the plan she owes them something more since they “save” her reputation/career, she pays for all their expenses as her beard
* They never see it comin’ what I do next ...New Romantics; poker ref...she fills them in on the situation?
* This is how the world works you gotta leave before you get left...Foreshadowing her leaving BMR so she doesn’t lose Karlie?
* If he drops my name then I owe him nothin’ and if he spends my change then he had it comin... Did a beard say something he wasn’t supposed to in an interview that went against the NDA contract... Was he taking advantage of Taylor and her money?
* They’re burning all the witches even if you aren’t one they got their pitchforks and proof their receipts and reasons... “Witches” historically were thought to be lesbians (see Salem witch trials - see Willow) Even if you aren’t one - Some of the rumors of her being with her friends other than Karlie (Martha Hunt)...The proof is obviously in the rumors of her and Karlie and possibly Kissgate..and lots of witch references in evermore
* So light me up go ahead and light me up...Acknowledging she’s gay?
Don’t Blame Me
* Don’t blame me, love made me crazy if it doesn’t you ain’t doin’ it right lord save me my drug is my baby I’ll be using for the rest of my life... Don’t blame her for all the crazy things she’s had to do to keep her relationship with Karlie Lord save me - “pray the gay away” type ref
* I’ve been breaking hearts a long time and toying with them older guys just playthings for me to use (see “I Did Something Bad”)...Boys = beards
* For you, I would cross the line I would waste my time I would lose my mind they say she’s gone to far this time... She would give it all up to be with Karlie (see lyrics of evermore)
* My name is whatever you decide and I’m just gonna call you mine I’m insane, but I’m your baby...Reference to Karlie writing her name in the sand wrong or maybe using “James” or another pseudonym like maybe Kayda?
* Echoes of your name inside my mind halo, hiding my obsession I once was poison ivy but now I’m your daisy...
Alleration of Karlie’s name? (Echoes of your name) Halo = Victoria’s Secret Angel.. Poison ivy (see Ivy) Daisy - all the pictures of them with daisies during the Big Sur trip and other
* And baby for you I would fall from grace just to touch your face if you walk away I’d beg you on my knees to stay... She would give it all up and come out if she could ....If Karlie wanted to leave (Victoria secret fashion show “walk away” ref) she would do whatever she had to do to make her stay
Delicate - there’s more lyrics here but you’ll get the point with just a few
* Is it cool that Taylor told Karlie how she felt? She knows their relationship/situation they’re in is delicate
* Echoes of your footsteps on the stairs stay here honey I don’t want to share...She hates that Karlie has to leave and pretend to be with Josh, she gets jealous
* I pretend you’re mine all the damn time...She hates the bearding
So It Goes - all Victoria Secret fashion show refs
* See you in the dark all eyes on you my magician all eyes on us you make everyone disappear ...From Taylor’s perspective - Victoria secret fashion show interactions - usually all eyes are on Taylor but not now, it’s all eyes on her and Karlie and Taylor see’s only her and her “shiny abs” when they’re out there together on the stage
* Cut me into pieces gold cage hostage to my feelings back against the wall trippin when you’re gone...it kills Taylor to have to hold her love for Karlie inside and not share it with the world as much as she hates when Karlie has to leave after their time spent together
* Cause we break down a little but when you get me alone it’s so simple cause baby I know what you know we can feel it... When they have to be apart it’s hard but when they’re together it’s all worth it...They both know what they have and what they have to do to keep it
* And all the pieces fall right into place getting caught up in the moment lipstick on your face so it goes...Everything so far is going to plan but sometimes they forget and have to deal with a revelation (lipstick on Karlie’s face as they walk out of the apartment and get papped)
* I’m yours to keep and I’m yours to lose you know I’m not a bad girl but I do bad things with you so it goes...Seems like Taylor is saying the ball’s in Karlie’s court so to speak? The bad things = lesbian things 😂
* Met you in a bar all eyes on me your illusionist all eyes on us I make all your grey days clear and wear you like a necklace I’m so chill but you make me jealous but I got your heart skipping when I’m gone... From Karlie’s perspective - usually everyone is looking at Taylor but not at the VS Fashion show. She’s the sunshine in Taylor’s life but she does get jealous sometimes...But she knows she has Taylor’s heart and that Taylor misses her when she’s gone
* Come here dressed in black now scratches down your back now so it goes...Victoria’s Secret fashion show when they’re in black dresses holding hands walking down the runway and likely what happened after the show 😉
* You did a number on me but honestly baby who’s counting I did a number on you but honestly baby who’s counting 1, 2, 3...They really can’t help themselves with each other and their feelings * 3 years has gone by (2014-2017) (see invisible string - bold was the waitress on our 3 year trip. * 3 album contract with UMG?
Gorgeous - the rest of the lyrics speak for themselves I think, so here’s a couple.
* You make me so happy it turns back to sad ...When they’re together vs when they’re apart (Karlie w/Josh)
* There’s nothing I hate more than what I can’t have Due to the management teams keeping them apart?
Getaway Car
King of My Heart - Karlie is a Leo (Lion - king of the jungle)
* Salute to me, I’m your American Queen - Karlie referred to Taylor as the Princess because she has blue eyes, red lips, is beautiful and wears a crown in the Best Best Friend Vogue video
* Cause all the boys and their expensive cars, with their range rovers and their Jaguars never took me quite where you do...She feels nothing with any of her expensive beards like she does with Karlie
* Late in the night, the city's asleep Your love is a secret I'm hoping, dreaming, dying to keep... They have to sneak around to avoid being seen together in intimate situations
* Change my priorities The taste of your lips is my idea of luxury... She’s making all the effort to make the relationship work. I’m sure some guys have tasty lips but typically the ladies win that one
* Is the end of all the endings? End Game
* My broken bones are mending She uses breaking bones metaphors often (sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me refs?)
* Up on the roof with a school girl crush
* She’s got a girl crush
* Drinking beer out of plastic cups
* Karlie and Taylor at the Knicks game
* Say you fancy me, not fancy stuff
* Taylor wants to know that Karlie wants her for her, not what she has
Dancing With Our Hands Tied - a lot to unpack here so I’ll try to do it briefly
* I, I loved you in secret First sight, yeah, we love without reason...Depending on when they first met, Taylor saw Karlie either irl or modeling or through mutual friends and had a crush instantly
* Deep blue, but you painted me golden
* Karlie is Leo...astrologically represented by 1 color...Gold
* I, I loved you in spite of Deep fears that the world would divide us...If they came out what would it do to their relationship and their careers?
* So, baby, can we dance Oh, through an avalanche?... Is it possible to do it? Maybe not now, but can they weather the storm until they can make it public?
* I'd kiss you as the lights went out Swaying as the room burned down Possible Kissgate ref?
* I'd hold you as the water rushes in...They’re both fire signs...a water sign beard (Joe is a Pisces) could be the extinguisher to squash the rumors of Kaylor
* If I could dance with you again...She’ll do what she needs to do to keep this relationship
Dress - another big one
* Our secret moments in your crowded room They've got no idea about me and you...Victoria Secret fashion show moments
* There is an indentation in the shape of you Made your mark on me, a golden tattoo Again with gold and the tattoo...permanent mark (see End Game)
* Say my name and everything just stops I don't want you like a best friend...Not really sure if it could be any more obvious..Karlie and Taylor were each other’s “Best Friend” and Taylor is letting it be known that she wants her more than that
* Only bought this dress so you could take it off Take it off (ha, ha, ha) Carve your name into my bedpost 'Cause I don't want you like a best friend...She wants to “do bad things” with Karlie (see “so it goes”)
Call It What You Want
* Possible start of the bearding ref?
* Sounds an awful like “So Karlie would you want to?”
* Windows boarded up after the storm ...They have to be apart, possible arguments over what the plan should be? Also see Death by a thousand cuts on Lover
New Year’s Day=End Game?
* Last song with BMR..Taylor’s contract is over
* Candle wax and Polaroids on the hardwood floor...Candles are a recurring prop in her music videos, assumed to represent the passing of time of their respective contract periods * Polaroids - Karlie was asked in an interview what she collects, she said Polaroids...They took lots of Polaroid pictures on their trip to Big Sur * Taylor used the image of a Polaroid as her album cover in 1989
*You and me forevermore...direct link to the evermore album and song...she said in the MAATHP documentary that her life is planned out at least 2 years in advance...looks like maybe some of the folklore/evermore songs were already in the works or at the very least she went back and drew inspiration from other albums.
* You squeezed my hand three times in the back of the taxi
* could 3 years be the length of Karlie’s contract with Josh? (See So It Goes)
* 3 album contract with UMG?
* I can tell it’s gonna be a long road They’re going to have to suffer through at least 3 years of not being seen together in order to avoid speculation
* I’ll be there if you’re the toast of the town, babe Or if you strike out and you’re crawling home Whatever Karlie’s reason is for going along with the Josh stunts, Taylor will be there to support her no matter what...Strike out is a baseball metaphor and Karlie is a big St Louis Cardinals fan (baseball ref also used in peace on folklore...”swing with you for the fences, sit with you in the trenches”)
Crawling home…opposite of what Karlie used to do as a Victoria Secret model and “walking” the runway
* Don’t read the last page But I stay When it’s hard or it’s wrong or we’re making mistakes... Try not to look too far ahead, things can go wrong and it can make the time longer or seem longer
* I want your midnights But I’ll be cleaning up bottles with you on New Year’s Day Taylor wants to be with her now, but she knows in the end she’ll be with her forever after the charade and games are over.
* Hold on to the memories they will hold on to you Just keep remembering the good times..they’ll get “us” through until the games are over

Prompts: “Are you drunk?” - “Not nearly enough.”“I think I may be slightly more drunk than I thought.” “You know I hear you talking, but I still don’t have my coffee.” “I know I kissed you before, but I didn’t do it right. Can I try again?”
Warnings: Gals being drunk - Swearing - Full of grammar and spelling mistakes bc its 3am 
Word count: 3000 ish (Sorry, it probs would’ve been better short) 
Masterlist Fandom list
Tumblr media
Working so closely with the Avengers meant being friends with the Avengers. It was a good job, you earned good money, even had your own space at the compound, and had the best mentors. It was great because you loved the company and became a part of their family. You worked hard, a direct contact for the avengers but behind a screen, you never went out in the field, only when you were stuck in a van with everything you needed for your job. It was weird considering how many people would’ve been better for the job, but having Tony as a close mentor, you knew his systems better than anyone did.
It was an intense job to have, especially when working with some very dangerous people, as well as very important people.
And although you were young compared to some, you were mature enough to take on everything that you did. But being young also meant being able to have fun at any formal events and parties that Tony threw, it meant being able to get drunk, let your hair down, and have fun. Which you took pride in doing so.
Two people you classed as some of your closest friends were Bucky Barnes, and Sam Wilson. You don’t know how you became closest to them both, Bucky, you had gotten to know over the last few years because you were someone outside of the violence. You bought him into the 21st century through friendship. But this man along with Sam Wilson were the two you got along with the most. Peter also held a special place in your heart, you and Peter almost had a sibling relationship, but other two constantly fight him with him like older, annoying brothers as well.
The one thing, out of everything that you’ve done to help the Avengers is how gradually, overtime, you caught feelings for none other than James Buchanan Barnes. You don’t know when, or how. You just remember joking around with him and Wilson, and the way Barnes was with you, it made your heart beat that little faster, and his jokes that little bit funnier. You were constantly surrounded by him. The only thing you were greatful for was the fact you have your own apartment in the city, one that you definitely use as an escape.
You had drink after drink at the current gala that Tony had thrown. You donated money, you done a lot of pleasantries, but no one really knows who you are, so you were almost free reigned to do whatever you liked without embarrassing yourself. But of course, that didn’t stop you.
“Are you drunk?” Sam asked standing beside you. He looked very sharp, wearing a suit that you helped him buy, a fresh trim, and a glass of champagne in hand.
“Not nearly enough” you groaned in response, you wanted to be drunk, you wanted to forget about the feelings you had for certain people, but that someone had to look amazing right now. They had to look like a freaking model that belonged on the cover of every fashion magazine out there, they looked like they should be the face of every cologne out there. Instead they were here, quietly socialising by Steves side, looking as good as ever. Your feelings for Bucky Barnes were just getting worse and worse. Sam knew this, Peter knew this and both Wanda and Natasha knew. No one else, and if anyone else did know, they definitely kept it to themselves.
“You know, as much as I find it amusing watching you stand her and yearn for a man who finds it difficult to keep his hair in place, I really think you should talk to him one day”
You gawked at Sam, “I’m sorry what? Talk to him? Yeah I talk to him everyday Wilson.”
“You know what I mean Y/N,” He said nudging your shoulder. “you need to talk about you know, your feelings for once. You’re all about communication, can’t you see the way he is”
You shook your head, “He’s not any certain way. He’s just Bucky, the way he always is, the way he is with us, with Steve, he’s different with each set of people depending on his comfort levels, that’s how everyone is. We don’t need to talk about feelings though, he doesnt know communication with feelings”
“No? I definitely think you should. And I also think you need another drink” A waitress was passing by you both, you swapped your glasses despite the dire need of something stronger.
“You know, I think I do want to get a little more drunk than I am. Because right now, I don’t even feel buzzed”
“You sure as hell look it, lean on my arm kid, we can get you wasted”
You grinned up at Sam, “Dance with me Wilson” You said dragging his hand across the floor, you felt eyes on you both as you danced together and Sam grabbing you more drinks.
After some time you had to go to the toilet, you stumbled your way there, Nat helping you half way until she got dragged into conversation which left you stumbling to the toilet yourself.
You looked at yourself, your hair still in place, lipstick had slightly come off, but it didn’t look smudged, so you reapplied this. You deemed yourself presentable before leaving the bathroom.
You left only to bump into Bucky who was stood there leaning aginst the wall, when your eyes met a small smile fell on his lips, all you could think is how beautiful he looked. Honestly, beautiful.
His hair was a bit loose, a few strands at the front of his face, his piercing blue eyes matched the blue on his bowtie, which had also come undone. His beard was neatly trimmed down, months ago you badgered him, on and on, talking about how much he suited a beard and how he shouldn’t shave. After a few weeks, a beard was nicely growing on his face, and since he’s kept it thick, but trimmed to perfection.
“Hey sweetheart” He murmured once he saw you,
“Bucky” You grinned loudly, trying to hug him, instead tripping over yourself and landing in his arms,
“Looks like I’m fallin’ for ya buck” You had a cheeky look on your face, but only saw an unreadable expression on his, it frustrated you that sometimes you thought you could read Bucky, but you knew deep down you couldn’t. You just wish he saw how you feel about him.
“Y/N” He smiled, “Looks like Sam gave you one too many drinks”
You grinned at that, “Uh huh, you should’ve joined us, instead you were being the mature adult you are”
“Yeah, Y/N?” He smiled down at you, “I mean you seem a little drunk there, sure if I were with you both, you’d only be a little tipsy”
You rolled your eyes and huffed, “Uh huh, an influence like you. Buck you ought to know that you, Mr. James Barnes, are a terrible, terrible, influence. But I’m only a little-ickle bit drunk”
“Uh huh, is that why you’re trippin’ over your own feet?” He had a small amused smirk plastered on that handsome face of his that you just love.
“Buck” He you said grabbing his face in your hands, “I already said, I was just fallin’ for ya, and you caught me like the handsome gent you are”
His breath caught in his throat slightly, as he looked at your face, you hadn’t realised the close proximity between the two of you, his eyes went down to your lips, and yours to his, you don’t know what overcome you, if he leaned forward, or if youre the one who initated it, but the two of you kissed.
It was soft and gentle, almost testing one another, and then again, until the two of you were properly kissing a drunken kiss. Your hands still holding his face in place, you could feel his hands wrapped around your waist, it took a moment for your brain to catch up, you were stood here, kissing Bucky Barnes. The man you were basically in love with. The man you classed as one of your best friends.
You pulled away abruptly, gasping as you did, “I’m so sorry Buck” You whispered before trying to find your way back inside.
You don’t know what happened, you kissed him, he kissed you, why did you do it? What if now he thinks you only kissed him because you’re drunk. What if he kissed you because he’s slightly drunk?
“Sammy” you called, “Sam” You grabbed his arm, “I need to go, help me get a taxi please”
“Y/N, I thought you were with Bucky” He said a worried look on your face, when he mentioned Bucky all you could think is the broken look on his face as you pulled away from him and out of his arms.
“Sam, please. And I just, I fucked it all up” You grumbled, a sad look on your face not knowing what you’ve potentially thrown away.
“What?” he asked pulling me aside and towards the enterence, “I fucked it up, we kissed, and I ran” you cried to him,
You didn’t have a chance to see the shock on Sams face, instead you heard Steve approaching you both,
“Hey, you two good?” He asked,
“Yeah, man, we’re good. Well, she’s a bit wasted. I’ll get her back to her apartment; can you go check on Bucky?”
“Yeah of course, make sure you get home safely Y/N” He said kissing your forehead before going to find his best friend that you kissed and ran from.
**
Waking up the following morning was a mission, the hangover nearly killing you off, you heard the TV on loud and couldn’t remember how you got home, who you were with. All that kept on replaying in your head was the kiss. The kiss that meant everything to you.
You grabbed your robe before brushing your teeth and them going out to see who was invading your space,
“Ahhh, the heartbreaker awakens” Sam announced loudly,
“Wilson. Don’t even start. I can’t talk to anyone hungover without coffee in my system, let alone someone bullying me” You grumbled,
“Awh, c’mon Y/N, you finally had your chance, and you ran. What is with that?”
“You know I hear you talking, but I still don’t have my coffee.”
He shook his head and went to pour you some, “So go on, what happened? You’ve been waiting for that chance for how long, and then you ran? Steve said Buck was really torn at the end of last night, couldn’t figure out what happened. Took me all of a second to know”
You just snatched the mug out of his hand, wondering why he’s in your apartment this early, and why he’s tormenting you with the events of last night.
“What happened is, I bitched out and ran. I had my opportunity, but was too drunk to appreciate it” You grumbled,
“That’s a shame, Good job I called him over here, I said you wanted to talk”
It took you a few sips of scalding hot coffee to understand what just left Sam Wilsons mouth. First, he invites himself to your apartment, your food, and your coffee. Then he invites the man you love, kissed and then ran from whilst drunk over. All while you look like garbage.
“You did what” You screeched, “Sam when is he getting here?”
“No idea... soon?” He shrugged not a care in the world,
“Wilson, this is important information, spit it out. Just because I’m not trained the way you are, does not mean I can’t cause damage”
“Woah chill Y/N, he’ll be here in about half an hour. I told him you’ll order lunch, and I’ll even leave before he gets here. Just be greatful that I’m such a good friend, I bought you home, slept in your guest bedroom, and made sure you didn’t die from alcohol poisoning”
“I wasn’t that bad” You whined, “But thank you, although I still don’t appreciate the bullying”
He grinned at you, “What else would I be good for huh? You’re like my kid sister, of course I’m going to bully you, now if I were you, I’d go look somewhat presentable, Bucky will be here soon”
You groaned at that, shocked that Sam done something like this to you, but then again, you put yourself in this position, and Sam is basically giving you a kick up the ass for it.
When Sam left, you finished your coffee before having a quick shower, you were disgustingly hungover and all you wanted to do was climb into your comfiest pyjamas and sit in front of the TV ignoring the world. On days where the other girls were free, no secret ops, no training, you had a little pamper day, you would even prefer that over the conversation that’s to come. You had no clue what he would say, what you would say, and weather you would be shoved right into the friendzone.
**
Between the time that Sam had left, and Bucky arrived, you managed to dry your hair, get changed into something somewhat presentable. You tidied your apartment as much as you could in the few minutes you had before he knocked on your door.
Your heart dropped to your stomach, too scared to face the man on the other side of the door.
You walked over to look through the peephole. From what you could see, he had on some jeans, a hoodie, layered with a leather jacket. He had a glove on his metal hand, and a cap covering his hair.  
You took a deep breath before opened the door; his body froze up before he turned to see you stood there. Whenever he saw you it took his breath away. Last night when he saw you, all he could think is how he wished you were on his arm. How the two of you should’ve gone together and left together.
Whenever he saw you in the compound, seeing you first thing in the morning made his day that bit better, he wished you were the first thing he saw every morning of everyday.
Staring at your beautiful face now, it made his heart swell, despite his mind constantly going back to last night, he finally had you in his arms, he finally had you, for you to run. It scared him, he might’ve messed it all up forever. Standing here right now gave him hope, all he wanted to do was take you into his arms, apologise for yesterday, and start from scratch. But he didn’t know how or where to start.
“Bucky” You whispered,
He gave you half a smile while takng his hat off, “Hey”
“Hey, um come in. Sorry everything is a mess”
He shook his head and observed the tidy apartment, he had only been here a few times, never just the two of them. And nothing was a mess, it was perfect. He took off his leather jacket and glove, hanging the jacket up and leaving his glove on the side.
He didn’t know what to do with himself but opted to sit on the couch across from the television. Football highlights were on, but he knew for a fact you weren’t watching this.
“Did you want anything, tea or coffee?” You asked nervously,
“I’m good thank you Y/N” He murmured, “You wanted to talk? Although, I’m positive that Sam set this up”
You had a sheepish look on your face and nodded sitting beside him, “Buck, I need to apologise for last night. I had no right to invade your personal space the way I did, I had no right… no right to kiss you. I’m sorry for crossing boundaries, I feel awful for everything, I didn’t mean to run from you the way I did”
He stared at you, unable to read any expression on your face, he was deep in thought because for James Buchanan Barnes, he knew his feelings for you were strong, and right now he’s wondering if you regretted the kiss because of him or not.
“Why did you run?” He asked, he needed to know why you ran.
You scrunched your face up a few times, trying to think of the best way to answer him,
“Because… what if now, a stupid mistake I made, I kissed you, and our friendship is just… it’s not us? I ran because I was scared, I messed up, could’ve messed it all up because of one... stupid mistake”
“What if, I’m glad you made that stupid mistake?” He asked his blue eyes staring into your own, “What if it’s not ruined our friendship? Made it better even?”
You stared at him in shock, how is it that Sam Wilson, the man that bullies you, pushes you into this conversation,
“Made it better?” You asked him, is he being real right now?
“I’ve wanted something like last night for so long, but… I don’t feel like I know what love is. I don’t know how to be that man I once was when it comes to relationships. I panicked, but shit, I’d be lying if I said I didn’t want that to happen”
“What?” You whispered, “You wanted to kiss me?”
“I’ll be real, I wanna do a whole lot more than just kiss you”
Your jaw hung slightly, and he just chuckled a little, a small nervous laugh.
His eyes were sqinted slightly, a slight look on relif on his face, “I know I kissed you before, but I didn’t do it right. Can I try again?”
He didn’t even let you answer, instead this time he leaned forward and kissed you.
This kiss was so much different than your last, it wasn’t sloppy and drunk, it held the emotion and passion you didn’t realise you had between the two of you. It meant that you weren’t in the friendzone, instead getting drunk because of feelings was a good way to regret expressing your feelings for it to come back around and have the man you love sitting there kissing you.
You didnt think half an hour ago when you woke up that it would take all of five minutes to talk to Bucky to be sat here in his arms,
“Promise not to run this time” He murmered against your lips,
“I promise” You whispered back, a smile stretched across your face.

Rated E for Extra Petty.
Tumblr media
Hey y’all! Here’s a random, little one-shot loosely based on this meme I saw a while back. Everytime I listen to Fantasia, it’s all I can think about lol.
Pairing: Erik ‘Killmonger’ Stevens x Black, Dark-Skin, Plus Size Reader. (Always💛)
Summary: No amount of 2K or Anime is a match for you when you’re on your bullshit.
Word Count: 1.6k
Warnings: Cussing. Use of N-word. Corny jokes. Reader being a major brat. Mention of smut. Erik being...a nigga lmao.
A/N: Song is “Free Yourself” by Fantasia, just in case someone doesn’t know it.
Also, I love me some Tasia so any shade towards her singing is all in jest. 😉
——
“IF YOU DON’T WANT ME, THEN DON’T TALK TO MEEE...”
Erik paused the TV and placed his elbows on his knees. His right leg bounced up and down aggressively. Sighing loudly, he threw down his PS4 controller and laid all the way back on the bed. You’d been blasting that same song for the last 20 minutes. Erik tried to tune it out but between Fantasia’s loud ass crooning and your off-key screeching, he couldn’t take it. He let out another breath as you continued to scream out ad-libs about how ain’t shit he was.
Let you tell it, this moment of supreme pettiness is what Erik deserved. You had come home late from work, tired and worn out from being around d’wights all day. All you wanted to do was curl up with your boyfriend and watch Love & Basketball. But Erik was in the middle of a game of NBA 2K19 and didn’t want to stop for your impromptu movie night.
EARLIER...
“What you mean not right now?” You asked with an attitude. You had changed out of your work clothes and into a black crop top t-shirt and black fitted shorts. Your big, kinky hair was pulled into a high puff.
“Baby, I’m trying to finish this game. We can watch the movie afterwards. Aight?”
“But I want to watch it now.”
“Well, I’m busy right now. Just watch it without me, if you can’t wait.”
“But we always watch Love & Basketball together, you whined as you poked your bottom lip out. “You don’t wanna hang out with me?”
“You know that’s not what I mean.”
You sauntered over to him and sat on his lap, straddling his legs. You wrapped your arms around his neck and gently played with the tail of his black du-rag.
“Then why not now?” You cooed into his ear.
Erik groaned lightly as you ran your nails against the back of his neck. “Look, I’ll only be like an hour. I’m sure you can find a way to entertain yourself until I’m done.”
You squinted your eyes at him. Usually, you had Erik wrapped around your finger. Your whine alone would have him rubbing on your booty all night. And a whole lot more. But this time, he wasn’t letting up. Your pout quickly turned into a frown. You hopped out of his lap and stood in front of the TV.
“So this dumb ass game is more important than me?”
“Y/N.“
“Nah, that’s basically what your saying. You rather play this shit than be with me. I can read between the lines, Erik.”
“Girl, you trippin’ right now. Chill out.”
“Fuck chill! All the times I’ve sat up and watched those stupid ass anime shows with you?
“Stupid?” He stood up, cocking his neck back in offense. His gray sweats hung low on his hips. “I thought you said you were starting to like anime.”
“I don’t even understand that shit! I watch it because its something you like to do. But, do you return the favor? Nooo. You rather sit in front of this fucking TV and play some wack ass game made for 14 year olds! Witcho cornball ass!”
Erik’s eyes bulged. He clenched his jaw and moved towards you.
“Watch ya mouth, princess. I don’t know who you think you talking to but I’m not sum nigga in the street. You need—“
“I need to what, Erik?” You cut him off, placing your hands on you hips and moving closer to him. His large frame towered over yours but you still managed to look him right in the eye.
“You know, maybe I should get me one of those other niggas. I’m sure they would love to do much more than watch a movie with me.”
Erik’s eye twitched. You knew the thought of you entertaining some one else would get under his skin.
“You better calm all that down before we have a fucking problem,” he lowered his face to yours. “I mean that shit.”
“Then turn the game off,” you whined again, crossing your arms over your chest.
“Hell no.” Erik mirrored your actions. Normally, he’d let you have your way by now, but you were being more of a brat than usually. Plus, you had disrespected his favorite genre and game. No fucks were given on his end at this point.
The two of you glared at each other for a minute.
Erik huffed and rolled his eyes, “I’m not finna do this with your bratty ass. Take that bullshit somewhere else, bruh.”
He sat down on the bed and grabbed his controller, starting his game back up.
You stood there, burning a hole in the side of his head as he continued to play like you weren’t in the room.
“Ok,” you hissed, “OH-Kay.”
You stomped out, slamming the bedroom door on purpose.
Erik heard the song start over again.
“If your unhappy then your free to go onnn. Cause I don’t want you stayin’ arounndd, if I make you so miseraablee,” you and Fantasia sang brashly.
“IF YOU DON’T WANT ME THEN DON’T TALK TO MEE,”
“That’s FUCKING it.” He said as he shot up from the bed.
He swung open the bedroom door and stomped down the hall.
“I swear to GOD...” he murmured to himself as he made his way to the living room.
You were sprawled out on the couch, one leg thrown over the back while you leaned your head on the arm and sang. An open bottle of wine and half filled wine glass sat on the coffee table. You eyes drifted to Erik as he barged into the room. He was silently fuming; his naked, scarred chest heaving in and out. You gave him a dry look and grabbed your glass, taking a long sip.
“This love thing is fuull of scandaaaals, so you’re WELCOME TO WAALK.”
“Yo. Kill all this fucking noise, ma.” Erik said, pulling on his sweats.
You gave a him a stank once over, rolled your eyes, and kept singing.
“If you don’t WANT me, then dont TALK to me.”
“I’m serious, Y/N. You being mad childish right now.”
You turned the volume up on your speaker.
“Then GO ahead AND free yourSEELF.”
Erik clenched his jaw, “All this over a damn movie?”
You glared at him and walked towards the kitchen. He was right behind you, huffing and puffing the whole way. You opened the pantry and grabbed a big bag of kettle popcorn. You strolled over to the kitchen island and sat down on one of the stools.
“Look, stop all this and I’ll watch the stupid movie with you.”
“Time and time again, I tried it over and over,” you sang between bites. “But the love I had inside, has died.”
“Come on now, this shit is ridiculous,” he moved to your side of the island and sat down, trying to grab at you. You pulled back and perched yourself up on your knees to sit over him.
“Go. Ahead. To. Someone. Else.” You chanted, tapping your index finger into his forehead with every word.
Erik grabbed your wrist, getting more agitated with you, “I’m warning you, Y/N. You better stop.”
You kissed your teeth and snatched your hand back. With all the dramatic energy you could muster, you threw your head back and your arms out, bellowing out with the screaming songstress.
“IF YOOUU DON’T WAANNT MEEE THEN DON’T TAALK TO MEEE. GOOO AHEAAD AND FREEEE YOURSEEELFFF!”
Erik winced at your screaching. You threw your hand up at him and shook your head side to side.
“I had to take it there, I had take it there. Cause I’m TIRED.“
He flared his nostrils at you. That right leg started bouncing again.
“IF YOU DON’T WANT ME, THEN DON’T TAALK TO M—.”
“Goddamnit, Y/N!” Erik yelled. He quickly scooped you up and walked you over to the couch. You yelped as he plopped both your bodies down and leaned over you, a scowl on his face.
You blinked up at him innocently. His eyes scanned over your chubby, brown face. He sighed, still sneering a little.
“Why do I even put up with your ass?”
Fantasia continued to croon in the background as you stared back at him, batting your eyelashes.
“Cause you love me...” You said with a shy smile.
Erik let out a soft chuckle and dropped his head. He was lowkey happy to hear you say something besides those damn song lyrics. Reaching around you, he turned the speaker off.
He shifted both of your bodies sideways and laid behind you. He snuggled his head in your neck, causing you to whimper a little.
“Cue the damn movie,” Erik said, wrapping an arm around your waist.
You giggled, grabbing the remote off the table and turning on the TV. The opening scene of Love & Basketball faded onto the screen. You moved your head to face his and smiled, running your nails through his beard.
“You are something the fuck else, I swear.” He mumbled as he peppered kisses up your neck and along your face. He captured your lips into a full kiss as he pressed himself against your backside. “Spoiled ass.”
“E...” you moaned, pushing back against him.
Erik pulled back and sent a hard smack to your ass, causing you to squeal.
“I’ma watch this shit with you now but I got something for that ass later on,” he said with a smirk while he rubbed the sting away. “You ain’t really start singing yet.”
“The neighbors gon learn my name today or whatever Trey Songz said.”

Alright, I hope y’all got a good little chuckle out of this.
Let me know what ya think! 😁

“A trippin’ trip.” Asdfgh
#thats what im gonna call it when I go on a walk to smoke some now
Casey looks like such a Stoner DykeTM
Sam trying to abashedly wave his smoking experiences off and dean just like “rebel” “sinner” asdfg Sam deserves that teasing
#that scene is so funny
Asdfhg “yeah, you know your herbs.” Stop teasing Sam about his herbs
#let that man huff his green leaves in peace asdfgh
The lady is absolutely checking Sam out asdfgh
#but of course its played for laughs cause she’s fat
The Sheriff lady is so pretty!
#im love her
Cesar chopping of a snarling monsters head, in a forest, with a machete, while Dean is pinned to the floor… Benny Vibes
#hes also got the beard and all #i mean hes better than benny bc actually gay #but still…. #the inherent homoerotic tension of saving someone from being devoured by a monster
Bisaan are creepy monsters and like ok they were probably used to excuse cheating/rape/incest and explain pregnancy, similar to succubi, but ufff, gross, creepy and rapey monster and I don’t like it
#im not a fan of those Invasion of the body snatchers type of monsters who have orgies just like everywhere
Jesse is so good

The fact that everybody in town and his family blamed Jesse for his brother being taken, never mind that Jesse was a kid and that even if there hadn’t been an actual monster, a child experiencing something traumatic could come up with a monster…
#im angery #protect my boy!!!
Jesse has been really terrible traumatized as a child and to hear that the old Sheriff knew and just told him he was crazy… I’d be angry too
Sam petting Jesse on the shoulders three times and then grabbing his shirt to drag him away, because he knows they got a job to do and they have to get there… Good Dude!

The dawning realization that I probably should have taken the safe route home hit me right about the time I was being crushed by the weight of a 250 pound wolf. I would have peed my pants if I hadn't wondered off into the woods precisely to relieve myself not ten minutes ago, but now that I was facing the reality that I might not make it back, I kinda had to pee again anyway.
This is it. This is how I die.
I was face down on the ground and sharp rocks were digging into my knees, but my attention was centered on the hulking mass of a wolf breathing down my neck. One paw was situated right next to my face with a claw poking at my temple and fur brushing against the side of my face. I was too scared to move, much less look up at the thing, all I knew was that it was the biggest damn wolf I'd ever seen in my life.
But it hadn't taken a bite out of my jugular yet, so I was just going to consider myself fortunate to still be alive for the time being. I could feel the huffing of breath hitting the back of my neck and I just laid there, still as death, waiting for it to either kill me or hopefully become disinterested and walk away. Neither was happening, and although I've really honestly been working on it, turns out being in a life or death situation really puts a strain on my patience.
What felt like hours passed while I counted it's breaths and lost track of the seconds. Adrenaline was rushing through my veins and I felt antsy. My muscles were tense and I just wanted to get the fuck out of here as fast as possible. I felt it back away just a bit so I made a run for it. My ears and fingers were numb from the chilly September air and I could no longer feel my toes, but I tried to stumble up nonetheless and managed to get upright.
It didn't last for long though. Four distinct claws dug into my back and pushed me back down into the dirt. I hit the ground with a huff as all of the air was knocked out of my lungs. There was dirt in my mouth and leaves in my hair and my whole body hurt. I tried to twist my neck to look behind me but my muscles were stiff and I couldn't twist that far. But I could feel it crouch down above me. It kept it's paw on my back but it didn't rest any weight on me. How considerate.
The crunch of leaves and snapping of twigs up ahead caught my attention. Soft paws moved swiftly across the ground. I figured that this was it for me. This is the moment I, Jace Wiley, would die in a moment of pure stupidity. It sounded like they were headed straight for us, probably to meet up with my captor. He probably rang some silent wolf dinner bell and I was about to be torn to shreds for dinner.
The louder the sounds got, the more weight it put on my back as it crouched down above me. My wolf and I were hidden behind dense foliage so thick I couldn't see through it, which meant that I couldn't see the other wolves, but I could hear them and I knew they were there and I just laid on the ground, frozen in fear. Before long the huffing and padding started getting quieter and my wolf started easing up on the pressure. I opened my eyes for a minute and listened for them.
They passed right by us.
I was momentarily flooded with relief before remembering that an apex predator was standing above me and could probably snap my neck in two seconds flat, and then I was terrified again.
The wolf bent closer and then I felt cold wetness touching the back of my ear as it nuzzled down my neck. With every exhale I grew a little calmer and it's warm breath heated up the inside of my jacket. I figured that if it was going to kill me, it probably would have done it by now, but there was no guarantee.
Maybe this was like one of those TV shows on the history channel or animal planet where a vicious predator adopts it's prey as a pet. Not likely, but it was the only hope that I had in that moment and mentally preparing for your death isn't something they teach you in high school, so I tried to ignore it instead.
Powerful jaws clamped around the hood of my coat and pulled me partially up off of the ground. I rose to my knees, touched my hands to each shoulder, forehead, and sternum in a silent prayer. God help me, but if I'm dying tonight, I'm going to make sure whatever higher power exists knows how sorry I am for skipping Church all those years.
Eyes closed tightly, I just stood there on my knees with my jaw clenched, waiting for something to happen. The forest smelled like fresh rain and pine trees and I could hear the chirping of birds, but I couldn't hear the wolf breathing behind me anymore.
I opened my eyes and whipped my head around and I came face to face with the most gorgeous set of eyes. My heart stopped as I took them in. They were so brightly blue, lighter than the sky and more breathtaking than anything had the right to be. Even on my knees, the wolf was so huge he hunched down to be face-to-face with me. He took a step back and I let out a breath I didn't know I'd been holding.
He was mostly black, with a patch of white fur on his chest that traveled up his neck and over his muzzle. He was... beautiful. I reached out a hand, probably not the best idea, in retrospect, but he hadn't killed me yet and I just needed to feel his fur between my fingers just one time. Just one time before I died, I needed to have my hands on this gorgeous animal.
He took another step back before I could reach him and hunched down further, staying out of reach. He stared right through me like he knew exactly what I was thinking. It was unnerving as fuck.
"Hey there," My voice cracked when I spoke, thick with fear and amazement all at the same time, "I'm not going to hurt you." I was really more afraid of him hurting me, but I must've been possessed at this point because I no longer cared. I saw this wolf and I wanted to run my fingers through his fur and scratch his ears.
A deadly predator, and of course I of all people start cooing at him like he's a stray dog that can be won over with treats and belly rubs. And when did I start calling the wolf a "he." I really had no idea what it's gender was, but he was so massive and his eyes were so intense that I knew he had to be the alpha of the pack or something. I've never seen a wolf this large in my life.
There was something in the powerful set of his shoulders... he could have killed me in an instant and I would have been much easier prey than rabbits or birds, but he didn't. He kept me alive and I needed to understand why. Why didn't he howl for the other wolves to come share in his conquest. I'd seen nature documentaries before, I knew how this stuff usually worked. The fact that I was alive was a miracle in itself.
I dropped my hand and just stared at him. Neither one of us looked away but nobody moved either. His breath came out in visible puffs and the cool September breeze nipped at my nose. The forest was still mostly green, but the leaves had started to turn a few weeks ago.
Goose bumps ran up my arms and the hairs stood up on the back of my neck. I couldn't tell if it was because of the nippy breeze or the wolf in front of me, staring into my soul. Because that's what it felt like he was doing.
Without a warning, he took another few steps back, turned his huge body, and ran around me, pushing his way through the thick bushes like they were nothing. He ran in the direction I assume his pack took off in, and I watched his powerful legs propel him further and further away from me.
I just stayed there, on my knees, for a minute, trying to take it all in. What the fuck just happened? I almost thought I dreamt it, or maybe I was trippin' on something, but I could still feel the weight of his paw between my shoulder blades and I knew that wasn't something I could make up. Someone else, maybe, but I never was the creative type.
And those eyes. Gods, those eyes. I probably should have been a little more worried about my obsession with his eyes, but I couldn't bring myself to stop being in awe. Every bit of that wolf was gorgeous, from his thick black and white fur to his hunched shoulders and the movement of his nose. I was face-to-face with death and all I could think was, wow, what powerful jaws you have. I'll never think of Red Riding Hood the same ever again.
"Jaaaaccee!" A loud voice echoed in the distance, bringing me back to Earth. I stood up, one leg at a time, resting my palm on a birch tree to help me up. "Over here!" I shouted, trying not to be too loud in case my wolf decided to come back and finish the job after all.
Mark came stumbling through the clearing after me with a huge smile on his face. He took long strides, lifting his legs up higher than necessary to make it through the brush, "What the hell are you doing? Camp is back that way!" He pointed to where he'd come from.
For a moment, I considered telling him about my wolf, but decided against it. No need to make him worry. "I, uh, I was just trying to take a shortcut but the bushes back here are too high, I couldn't get over, so I had to loop back around."
He caught up with me and nearly tripped over a tree root sticking up out of the ground. He grabbed my shoulder to steady himself and I could see the crows feet around his eyes and the fine lines around his mouth when he smiled. The hair at his temples was starting to grey and his beard had a few white strands poking out of the otherwise pitch black, wiry hair.
"Yeah, well, you should stay close. Some other campers were just telling me they saw some wolves down here the other day and I don't want you wondering off and becoming some mutt's dinner." He slid his hand around to my back and pushed me forward. "Now let's go make some food, I'm starving."
I didn't argue and let him lead me out of the woods. He kept talking but it was just going in one ear and out the other. All I could think about was my wolf, his paws padding on the forest floor, breaths coming out in puffs, eyes trained his prey as he stalked up behind it. I bet his jaws could snap my legs in half if he wanted to. I guess I'm pretty fortunate he wasn't hungry after all.
We eventually made our way back to camp, where Ryan, my foster father, was brushing out the grill grate and already had a huge fire started. "Heyyy you two! I was wondering where you were." His voice deep and raspy, despite his small stature. He looked back at me, "You wanna pull out the paper plates and plastic silver wear? I'll be grilling here in a sec."
I didn't talk, just nodded and walked over to the car, pulling out the bag of paper plates and plastic forks. Ryan and his wife adopted me when I was ten, but we never were that close. There was nothing particularly bad about Ryan, but he just came into my life at the wrong time. I was an angry kid still mourning the loss of my parents when I was adopted and I refused to let myself get close to him or Natalie.
I've gotten a little bit better since then. Mark and I were close, but he just came around a few years ago. He and Ryan were childhood friends-turned-lovers and they were good for each other. They made each other happy. So I guess I'm happy for them.
When the food was done, I ate as quickly as I could and then scurried off to my own tent, set up at the edge of the forest. Mark and Ryan's tent was on the opposite side of the camp site, and I was just thankful that the popping and cracking of the fire kept me from hearing them eating each other's faces. Gross.
I was warm cuddled up in my sleeping bag with the trees rustling in the wind outside. I was exhausted and sleep should've come hard and fast, but my mind was set on black fur and bright blue eyes. I don't know when I fell asleep, but I didn't stop thinking about my wolf even as I drifted off.

Blog Chapter 2.0: Road Trippin' it to Hershey So as you can probably already tell we do things at a moment's notice. There's no telling where we will be or what we will be doing even if we have plans already made that day. Things come up, and you need to move quick on them or you can miss out. This was kinda the case with our last minute trip to The Hershey AACA (Antique Automobile Club of America) Fall Swap Meet.  We knew it was coming up but we weren't going to be vendors at this one. It just so happened a past customer and friend of ours bought two of our big money items. Another gas pump and the enormous Coca Cola Sign we had. After having the Coke sign "sold" multiple times, we couldn't wait any longer for no show buyers. Unfortunately even the most seemingly trustworthy people go ghost with no explanation, and everyday they don't show is a day you miss out on money. They know that, and we know that. After holding the sign for over 4 months we couldn't wait any longer. The only problem was that our new buyer is from South Carolina. The good news is he was going to The Hershey swap meet. We made the decision that since he was a return customer and an all around great guy we're going to take the three hour trip to Hershey, PA and meet him there to exchange the two items.  Two days before we were contacted by another interested buyer in our six foot Texaco sign. He was from Blairstown, NJ and that just so happened to be on our way to Hershey. Things were looking up. The day before we are getting ready, making a gameplan for the next morning and doing our everyday routine, when we get a text from a random number. "Have 8 Antique Wine Barrels and a Grape Press...Interested? Has to be out by 4pm tomorrow" Now this is literally at 4pm when we are just about to wrap up for the day. We've been working since 9am, and I still haven't slept since working my other job midnight shift the night before, so I'm going on about 32 hours of no sleep. We negotiated a price, and basically said unless you can do this price we can't do it today and tomorrow we are gone all day, so we're going to have to pass.  "That price works you can come now heres the address" Well, I guess the end of our workday would have to be pushed back a little today. We picked up and started heading to the location about 40 minutes away. It was too good of a deal to pass up, and once we got there we realized it was a repeat person who we had picked about a year ago and changed his number. It was good to see him. This is the last thing we wanted to do before a big trip to Hershey but we just had to.  The next day I was by Luke's at 7am. Now the challenge is that we have an 8 Foot by 4 Foot Sign, and 6 Foot in Diameter Sign, and Gas Pump- with only a 6 Foot Pickup Truck Bed to transport this all safely. We figured out the signs pretty easily but than came the pump. If you've ever transported an old gas pump, you would know these things are heavy as hell! We usually only need 3 guys to lift it, but we've never tried it with 2. Today was the day we tried it with just the two of us. I would estimate from what I've seen online it weighs anywhere from 6-650 pounds depending what parts are on it still. This just so happened to be a complete pump. Goal- lift it just the two of us four feet into the air onto the pickup truck bed and ease it down so it didn't crack or ruin the porcelain signs. It only took us two tries, but it took everything we had, and we successfully didn't break anything in the process. We were finally en route to one of the biggest Swap Meets in the East Coast. We stopped in the Blairstown area and dropped off the Texaco Sign to the first buyer. The actual town name was Allamuchy, NJ and we swore it was a made up town that we were just getting lured into to get kidnapped. Nice guy though, newer collector and he was ecstatic about the sign once he saw it in person. Always good to see satisfied customers. We continued onto Hershey Long road trips are fun and brutal at the same time if that makes sense. Luckily we're such good friends that it doesn't really seem like work or a job, and time does go fast but there is a lottttt of time to kill. We literally talk about the most random things and go down this wormhole of topic to topic and scenario to scenario. It's definitely entertainment at its finest and I cant really explain it unless cameras were rolling and you see it for yourself. Maybe one day. Our music of choice for this particular ride was Lady Gaga, like literally every song she has ever done. So if you can picture these two bearded, tattooed, backwards hat wearing men with a gas pump and Coke Sign sticking out of their blacked out pickup truck bed, windows down, blasting Lady Gaga. Some of the reactions we saw when people pulled up next to us were priceless, but that's who we are. Its always an adventure. After about another hour of that we finally pulled up to Hershey. The best way to describe it is that its a playground for older adult men. Ever see a child in a toy store? That look on their face? Running around all happy touching and playing with everything they see? Now picture that, but a 50 year old men doing it.  Literally everyone has some sort of motorized scooter and they are zipping around left and right going from aisle to aisle. This is probably the biggest show we've been to. I think they said around 9,000 vendors were there. It so big you even have to cross the overpass of the highway to get to the second side of it.  There was some top notch stuff here. They line up all the cars which is anything from Dodge Brothers to Muscle Cars to Wagons to Ice Cream Delivery Trucks. All vintage. All completely restored. All amazing in their own way. It's really something to see someone's prized possession vehicle that they put so much time and effort into, and now multiply that by like 10,000 and that's Hershey. There's also 9,000 vendors. So you have your petroliana booths with signs and oil cans, also other booths with car parts and car related items, and than you have various other different booths like chrome plating booths, tools, bicycles, replica signs, and coin ops. I'm never too fond of the repop sign booths, but as long as they're upfront and honest that their signs aren't original that's fine with me. It's just more unfortunate that those signs are out there now and being sold as original down the road.  There's something for every type of collector here if your a fan of "Mantiques". The only problem is you're going to pay retail and possibly more than retail at most booths. There's no "wiggle" room for resellers like us. Granted, if you're looking for a rare sign, or a car you've been searching for you WILL find it here, but you're going to pay for it. It was kinda fun just being a spectator again, looking at things, making some new contacts, seeing how things are being priced and definitely meeting new people. Speaking of meeting new people. While we were walking Luke heard a voice that couldn't be mistaken. He has heard this voice at least 100 times before. He looked to his right. "There he is" "Who" "Look its Robbie Wolfe" Yes it was the American Picker Robert Wolfe. Mike Wolfes brother, a huge car guy, and a regular at shows like this one. He was standing right beside us and Luke picked him out after hearing his voice having a conversation with his friend. We went over. He shooks our hands like we had been friends for a long time, and we had a short convo with him. He kept it moving which we completely understood, and we didnt want to blow up his spot in a crowd of 10,000+ people. As he was walking away we said to ourselves we should have taken a picture with him. Luckily, a few other people recognized him and took some pictures with him. Luke decided to make the move and I was a little hesitant.  "Robbie can we just get a quick pic with you?" "Sure guys" We got our picture. Had another brief convo with him and he kept it moving like before. All I have to say is what a great guy. Truly a standup guy, very generous, and so down to earth. He took the time to talk to everyone who approached him and took pictures with anyone who asked, when all he was trying to do was check out some cool stuff at different booths. Never complained or said no to anyone. It was a great experience meeting him, and it was an extra bonus for our trip. We were always huge fans of him, but after this encounter and actually getting to meet him and talk with him we can't say enough about him.  After walking probably 15 miles the entire day, meeting new people, and window shopping, it was around 6pm and we were spent. I swear I pulled a hamstring, and Luke's feet were killing him from the boots he was wearing. We called it a day. We met our buyer and swapped out the pump and coke sign from my truck to his, we put on the Gaga, and began the three hour trip back home. Overall, we had a great time and I highly recommended checking it out next year even if you're not intending on buying anything. It's definitely a sight to see, and you never know who you're going to run into. Well most likely definitely be back next year. Maybe we'll get a booth next year or maybe not. Either way you should definitely plan on going to check it out. Hershey AACA Show 2017 was a success!
