Favorite Things meme ---- Answering for @lastedpromise

Grace grinned at the question, not even having to think before she started to answer what her favorite thing about Carlos was. "My favorite thing about Carlos is without a doubt his heart. There are too few people in this world that care enough that they are willing to go out of their way, putting themselves in danger, more than that man. If something is wrong, he is always the first person to try and help. If someone is hurt, he is the person I would go to to know that I'd be okay. During some of my darkest spots, Carlos has been there with a hug and a cup of tea. He's my brother, and I love him."

@lastedpromise. MARIANA & JAVIER.

there was a sigh that fell past the girls' lips, her eyes fixated out the window of the van they had been living and traveling in. the earphones she had on were quiet, the music she had was not playing and that was mainly because she didn't have any batteries. they had died. after a while, he turned his attention to the front, seeing her brother sleeping and noticed that kate was nodding off. ❝ do we have any more water? ❞ she piped up, her voice quiet as to not wake up gabe or kate.

starter for @lastedpromise ( javi ) from kate !

          they’ve  both  been  through  more  than  either  of  them  really  deserved,  with  the  scars  to  prove  it.  kate  wouldn’t  mind  her  own  if  it  didn’t  constantly  remind  her  of  the  death  of  mariana  and  her  inability  to  do  anything  other  than  nearly  get  herself  killed.  and  that  thought  led  to  other  thoughts—running  back  into  david,  being  scared  for  her  life,  having  to  save  richmond  from  impending  doom—but  they’d  made  a  home  here  and  the  scars  were  just  something  she  had  to  live  with.

          it  wasn’t  all  bad,  anyway,  she  supposed.  things  could’ve  been  a  lot  worse  than  they  were,  and  she  knew  that  she  should  be  grateful  for  what  she  did  have—her  stepson  and  javi  and  a  place  where  they  could  sleep  without  the  fear  of  being  snuck  up  on  by  muertos.

          “ you  know  my  eyes  are  up  here,  right ? ”  kate  said  as  she  pulled  her  shirt  down  over  her  torso.  she  knew  where  javi  had  really  been  looking—the  annoying  scar  on  her  abdomen—but  she  couldn’t  resist  teasing  him.  the  faint  smile  that  had  pulled  at  her  lips  started  to  fall  away  as  she  added,  “ the  more  you  stare  at  it  isn’t  gonna  make  it  go  away…  trust  me,  i’ve  tried. ”

henry says HAPPY BIRTHDAY alex claremont-diaz, the love of his life and the best thing that's ever happened to him, the best, kindest, most admirable person he's ever known. he better be prepared to be endlessly spoiled today even more than he usually is by his devoted housewife of a husband bc he deserves that and so much more, may they spend all of their birthdays together until the end of time, deeply loving each other and being the happiest they've ever been for all of forever ❤️❤️❤️

and if alex grabs him and kisses him and drags him off into the bedroom to celebrate said birthday, what then ???

scenario starter for @lastedpromise !

scenario: 'it’s okay, i know a shortcut!' says john to charles.

          charles  stands  there,  apprehensive.  he  watches  john  for  a  moment,  not  moving,  and  it’s  not  that  he  wants  to  tell  john  that  he  doesn’t  believe  him,  but…  well,  it  wouldn’t  be  the  first  time  that  john  had  gotten  them  into  hot  water,  and  charles  isn’t  so  sure  how  he  feels  about  short  cuts  in  the  first  place.

          if  he  were  a  proud  man,  he  would  point  out  that  he  is  the  tracker  here;  he  knows  his  way  around  these  parts;  scouted  more  than  probably  anyone  else  in  camp,  but  he  doesn’t  want  to  put  john  down.

          still,  he  can’t  help  but  parrot,  “ a…short  cut…? ”  following  it  with,  “ is  that  really  necessary…? ”

43: a bloody kiss ...

          it’s  alex’s  fault,  really,  as  he’d  gotten  a  little  too…carried  away.  though,  to  be  fair,  he  hadn’t  seen  henry  in  far  too  long.  the  long  distance  killed  him  sometimes,  but  he’d  still  tolerate  it  for  henry.  henry  was  worth  it,  and  alex  had  to  believe  that  one  day  it  would  all  pay  off.

          for  now,  they’d  have  to  make  due  with  visits  and  do  their  best  to  make  up  for  lost  time  during  the  time  they  had  together.  though,  alex  wasn’t  sure  that  clashing  teeth  really  fit  the  bill.  in  fact,  he  was  fairly  certain  he  could  do  without  it,  but  especially  when  he  looked  up  after  wincing,  pulling  back,  and  rubbing  at  his  mouth,  only  to  see  that  henry’s  lip  was  bleeding.  it  didn’t  look  too  bad  but  alex  sure  felt  bad.  

          “ oh  my  god,  babe,  your  lip— ”  he  started,  hands  immediately  reaching  for  him.  “ shit—!  i’m  so  sorry— ”  he  took  henry’s  face  in  his  hands,  observing  the  laceration,  and  even  though  it  wasn’t  much  worse  than  a  papercut,  he  couldn’t  help  but  be  dramatic.

          releasing  henry  from  his  hold,  he  turned  on  heel,  heading  towards  the  kitchen  as  he  called  back  over  his  shoulder,  “ hang  on,  i’ll  go  get  you  a  napkin ! ”

5: a firm kiss ...

          the  honeymoon  had  been  good—time  well-spent  for  the  two  of  them.  now,  came  time  for  reality  to  settle  back  in  and  tk  juggled  his  emotions  between  not  being  ready  to  go  back  to  work  ( and  considering  playing  hooky )  and  being  prepared  to  throw  himself  back  into  the  action.  on  the  one  hand,  he  didn’t  want  to  leave  his  husband  ( he  didn’t  think  he’d  ever  get  tired  of  referring  to  carlos  in  such  a  way )  but  on  the  other,  he’d  started  to  miss  the  thrill  of  saving  lives.

          ultimately,  work  won  out—especially  when  he  saw  carlos  step  into  their  bedroom,  already  in  his  uniform.  tk  took  a  moment  to  drink  him  in—appreciating  how  good  he  looked  in  that  uniform—before  beckoning  him  over.

          once  carlos  was  close  enough,  tk  reached  for  a  fistful  of  his  shirt,  partially  pulling  him  down  on  the  bed  to  press  his  lips  to  carlos’  firmly.  pulling  away  after  a  few  moments,  he  kept  his  face  close  to  carlos’  as  he  murmured,  “ try  not  to  miss  me  too  much… ”

6: a gentle peck ...

          it  was  early  morning  and  for  once,  nancy  didn't  have  any  plans.  she  didn’t  have  classes,  she’d  taken  the  day  off  from  work,  and  aside  from  a  few  errands  that  needed  to  be  ran,  she  had  an  entirely  free  schedule.  it  was  unlike  her,  always  feeling  the  need  to  stay  busy  and  on  the  go,  but  she’d  be  lying  if  she  said  that  the  exhaustion  of  her  life  hadn’t  finally  caught  up  to  her.

          so,  today,  she  planned  on  laying  in  bed,  and  possibly  sleeping  in.  it  wasn’t  like  she  didn’t  need  sleep.  still,  even  despite  her  innate  ability  to  run  herself  ragged,  she  found  that  she  slept  way  better  these  days,  and  she  chocked  that  up  to  having  steve  here  with  her.

          there  was  something  about  being  his  little  spoon—laying  back  against  him  while  his  arms  wrapped  around  her—that  was  comforting  and  she,  unbeknownst  to  steve,  had  begun  to  reach  a  point  where  she’d  toss  and  turn  and  be  unable  to  fall  asleep  without  him.  she  couldn’t  give  him  the  satisfaction  of  knowing  that,  so  she  kept  it  to  herself—even  though  she  was  fairly  certain  that  he  knew  anyway.

          she  could  feel  him  shift  behind  her,  knowing  the  movements  all  too  well.  he  was  awake.

          turning  over  to  face  him,  she  moved  to  wrap  her  arm  around  him,  snuggling  close  and  gazing  at  him  with  sleepy  eyes,  smiling  softly.

          “ good  morning… ”  she  murmured  softly,  meeting  steve  halfway  for  a  soft  kiss,  before  curling  up  against  him,  pressing  her  cheek  against  his  chest.  “ i  think  we  both  deserve  to  sleep  in  today,  don’t  you…? ”

22: a french kiss/kiss with tongue ...

          they  hadn’t  officially  been  together  for  very  long,  but  their  relationship  seemed  to  move  at  bullet  speed.  if  mike  had  to  guess  why  that  was—if  he  let  himself  slow  down  long  enough  to  fully  piece  it  together—he’d  chock  it  up  to  the  fact  that  they’d  been  in  each  other’s  lives  since  they  were  five;  they’d  been  best  friends  for  the  majority  of  their  lives—a  DECADE.  and  mike  would  give  anything  to  be  able  to  go  back  and  change  how  long  it  took  for  him  to  get  his  head  out  of  his  ass.  he  and  will  could’ve  been  doing  this  way  sooner—could’ve  been  an  actual  couple  for  longer.

          but,  he  supposed  that  it  was  better  late  than  never,  with  full  intentions  to  try  to  make  up  for  lost  time.  for  as  long  as  it  took,  he  wasn’t  hearing  any  complaining  from  will’s  side  of  things.  that  was  truly  all  that  mattered  to  him,  anyway.

          though,  he  also  supposed  that  it  was  hard  to  do  any  complaining  at  all  when  the  two  spent  most  of  their  time  tucked  away  in  isolated  places  and  corners,  hands  all  over  each  other  as  they  kissed  to  their  hearts’  content.  it  was  like  a  drug,  and  mike  wasn’t  too  proud  to  admit  that  he  was…rather  addicted.

          what  started  off  as  shy  pecks  and  soft,  lingering  kisses,  had  rather  quickly  turned  into  firmer,  more  heated  and  longing  kisses.  and  it  was  unlike  anything  that  mike  had  ever  experienced.  his  kisses  with  el  had  been  something  he thought  were  okay,  but  they  were  nothing  compared  to  the  spark  he  felt  when  will’s  lips  were  on  his.

          even  now,  having  licked  into  will’s  mouth,  brain  somehow  simultaneously  turned  to  mush  while  also  buzzing  with  life,  mike  could  feel  the  same  spark  he  always  felt  every  other  time  he’d  kissed  will.  though,  somehow  it  was  also…different  and  mike  found  himself  questioning  why  they  hadn’t  been  kissing  like  this  sooner.

          it  was  so  easy  to  get  lost  in  it,  to  the  point  that  what  was  supposed  to  have  been  a  quick  kiss  goodnight  had  turned  into  a  minutes-long  makeout  session  on  the  byers’  front  porch,  and  mike  was  perfectly  content  in  procrastinating  his  departure  for  as  long  as  he  could.

          it  wasn’t  until  joyce’s  voice  from  inside  could  be  heard,  jarring  the  two  out  of  their  hazy-minded  kissing, that they  abruptly  pulled  apart.  mike  took  an  extra  step  back,  just  to  be  safe,  and  reluctantly  broke  the  silence.

          “ i’ll  see  you  tomorrow,  right ?  at  lovers’  lake ? ”

          when  will  agreed,  mike  smiled  an  all  too  sappy  smile  that  he  would’ve  kicked  himself  for  had  he  been  able  to  see  his  reflection,  murmuring  out,  “ cool…  well—goodnight,  will… ”  and  with  great  reluctance,  he  turned  to  step  off  of  the  porch  and  back  to  his  bike.
