You have me crying over your Unconventional fiction, it was so good!! Broke my heart 😭😭

I need a Pt. 3 where Leo is grieving over his lost love. April and Casey keep in touch with reader over the phone, but it's not the same of course.

Maybe someone convinces Leo to speak to reader over the phone?

Maybe after some time, reader gets to come back to New York (for college?) and reader and Leo get to reunite and try to work things out (maybe even start a relationship).

Thank you for the ask. This will be the final part to this series!

TMNT 12 Leonardo x Reader - Unconventional Pt. 3

Summary: Years have passed since you left for North Carolina, and you have mixed feelings about returning to New York for your first semester of college.

Warnings: More angst! A tiny bit of fluff too.

"I'm here," you sighed into your cell phone. "Yep. Getting off now." Just as you'd said, you carefully stepped off the train, the tile of the station slick beneath your feet. You struggled to haul your steam trunk off with you, but somehow managed. Scanning the crowd, you looked for your friend, the one you'd spoken to on the phone.

"(Y/N)!" a shrill voice called, as you spotted a ginger woman pushing passed irritated people, and darting towards you, a ravenette man being dragged behind her. "I can't believe you're really here!"

"April!" you shrieked, meeting her halfway and engulfing her in a much needed hug, before pulling her away and holding her at arms length. "God, I missed you guys so much." you beamed.

In the three years you'd been apart, your friendship with Casey and April had never once faltered. She always made a point to call you at least a few times a week, and he often texted you to check up on you, or sent you funny videos he found online. You had even managed to talk to the turtles on occasion. Your T-Phone had broken ages ago, but every once in a while, April would let Mikey or Donnie sit in on a call to say hello.

As you exited the subway, you chittered without friends about what had happened while you were away, and what the future had in store. Some how, the topic of living arrangements came up, and April was appalled to find that you hadn't secured an apartment yet. "What do you mean you haven't found a place yet?!"

You chuckled nervously, rubbing the back of your neck. "Well, I originally intended to move into the dorms, but they only allow payment by the semester and I don't have eight grand just laying around." you explained with a small smile. "I've got enough to put me up in a hotel for the night, I'll go house hunting tomorrow." you reassured, but obviously, this wasn't enough.

"Like hell!" she scolded. "How are going to waste your money on a hotel when not having enough money was the problem in the first place?"

"Well, what other choice do I have?" you shrugged. "I'll be fine, really."

"Absolutely not," she protested. "You're staying with me tonight." Before you had the chance to protest, she was already dragging you back down the steps into the subway system. As you walked, you began to become cautious of her intentions when she hung a sharp right that lead the three of you deeper into a seemingly defunct station.

"April, where are we going? I thought you lived on 31st?" you pondered, withdrawing your hand from hers as she lead.

"Not anymore, I moved out." she simply said, grabbing your hand again, before marching forward with even more vigor than before.

"Maybe this is a bad idea," Casey piped up from behind. "Babe, let's not do this. We could just stay with her in the hotel." Your head instantly snapped back to look at him, his features coated in uncertainty. If Casey Jones, the king of bad ideas, was unsure about this, than it was definitely not something you wanted to be apart of.

In the distance, you could hear chatter and background noise, and taking note of your surroundings, the color left your face. You spotted a broken skateboard, half submerged in sewage, and junk food wrappers scattered about. Even worse were the ruminants of deteriorating pizza boxes everywhere, becoming more numerous as you went further. It suddenly clicked for you where she was taking you, and Casey was right. This was a very bad idea.

"April, stop! I don't want to see them!" you vocalized, trying to tear yourself away from her. She finally let go and stopped, turning to look you in the eye.

"But they miss you, (Y/N)! They already know you're back in town, and they're just gonna come find you if you don't visit." she rationed.

You felt anger bubble in your chest as your fists balled themselves. "you told them I was coming back?! I specifically told you NOT to do that! April, how could you?"

The ginger rolled her eyes at your anger, clearly not understand her mistakes. "Are you really that mad?"

"Yes! I don't want to be here, April!" you shouted, huffing to turn back around and leave the way you'd come. You were born and raised in New York, surely you could find your way.

"(Y/N)?" you blood ran cold at the laid back voice that called out to you, knowing exactly who it was, and that there was no way you could leave now. Slowly, you pivoted on your heels with the fakest smile you could muster and wave back at him.

"Hey Mikey..."

-----

You were now sitting on that old familiar couch, crowded with ghosts from your past, having the absolute worst time. You felt sick, like you could vomit at any moment, without warning. Despite this, you continued to humor the turtles as they all rambled to you about what they'd been up to the last three years. There was nothing you wanted more than to leave again and never have any contact with these people again.

That was made ten fold when you noticed Leo standing in the doorway to the dojo, staring you down. Unbeknownst to you, he was feeling exactly how you were- nauseous and faint. Were couldn't been any words that anyone could string together to make him understand. Not how he felt, not why your were in his living room, nothing. Unwilling to deal with this at the moment, he turned away and went back into the dojo.

Apart of you felt an overwhelming grief watching him turn his back on your again, but the other part was so grateful. You could now go back to hating your current situation without the added pressure. Unluckily for you, it had already been decided that you'd sleep here, and you'd have much more torture to sit through as the night progessed.

-----

The lair laid quiet, all of it's inhabitants asleep, apart from you. You bustled around the living room, collecting your things and hasting tossing them into your trunk. Mentally, you went over a list of what you'd unpacked. Clothes, check. Wallet, check. Phone, check. With bated breath, you locked the final latch on your steamer and collapsed the handle, deciding to simply carry it and not risk the wheels making any noise. Finally, you were ready to make your escape.

"Leaving already?" a tired voice called from the kitchen, prompting you to freeze. How does this keep happening! Laughing nervously, you set the trunk down and turned to confront the person who'd caught you.

"N-No! Just going out for a snack-" you once again froze, that sick feeling bubbling back up in your throat, almost intense enough to make you visibly gag. "Leo?"

"It's just weird that you'd take your clothes with you to go get a snack. Especially at one in the morning." he chided, sipping from a glass of water and leaning against the countertop.

"Don't act like you care," you rolled your eyes. "Yes, I'm leaving. Just keep quiet about it, please."

"Were are we going?" he asked smugly, setting his drink down. "I don't know how many restaurants are open right now, but I bet we could find something."

You stared at him through glossy eyes, picking up your suitcase and marching up to the stairs. "That's enough, Leo. I really can't handle your shit talking right now. I just want to be away from you."

His brows furrowed, his hurt pride now becoming more important than his joy of seeing you again. "Go then. But don't say I didn't try."

You halted in your tracks, balled your fists and stomped back over to him, entirely snapped and no longer caring if you woke anyone up or not. "You didn't try, Leo! All you've ever done is hate me and bully me ever since I met you! The last time I saw you, you refused to even say goodbye, and then you never even called!" your chest heaved as tears began to flow freely from your eyes. "And then, after I was dragged here against my own will, when you saw that I was back, you didn't even bother to say anything! Don't you dare say you've tried!"

Leo stood in front of you, and for the first time he took the full force of your beratements, with nothing to say. When he finally did think of something, you didn't even give him the chance. "(Y/N), I-"

"Don't you '(Y/N)' me!" you sobbed, wiping fat tears off on the sleeve of your shirt. "I loved you, Leo! I don't know why, but I did, and all I ever wanted was for you to say one nice thing about me, but you can't even do that! You made it your mission to make my life here a live hell, and now that I'm back you expect to be able to go on midnight snack runs with me and have a cute little back and forth?!"

"Well, no-"

"Just stop." you finally said, hanging your head. "I never even intended for you guys to know I was coming back, because I didn't want to see you. Please, if you have any shred of respect for me, just let me go and don't tell anyone."

"Please don't go." he muttered desperately, catching your attention.

"Why does it matter to you?" you responded sadly, sniffling away the last few tears you had to offer.

"You're really unconventional in how you do things." he finally said quietly, and a bit shamefully.

"Leo, what does that even mean?" You questioned suspiciously, setting your trunk down to relieve your arm of it's weight.

"You said I can't say anything nice about you." he replied, in an almost annoyed tone.

"So that's your idea of a compliment?" you scoffed, shaking your head at him.

"I meant it in a good way." he clarified with a deep breath, refusing to let himself loose his cool again. "It's just something I admire about you."

"That's funny," you dismissed. "I didn't think you admired anything about me."

Guilt ate away at Leo as he continued to shift his gaze between you and the floor. "Look," he finally sighed, sitting down on the couch. "I wont make you stay. Please just here me out, and if you still wanna leave, I'll let you, no strings attached. I just have to get this off my chest."

You groaned, dropping your things and sitting down as well, as far from him as possible. "Whatever, just hurry up. Nothing you could say could change my mind."

With the inhalation of deep breath Leo turned to you, and for possibly the first time, he looked you in the eye. "I want you to know that above all else, I'm sorry." he began, deciding that putting any explanation before an apology would simply be inappropriate. "Secondly, I want you to know that I think I've done a lot of growing over the last few years and...there've been some bad habits I've had to work myself out of, and how I treated you was one of them."

"Cruelty doesn't count as a habit if it's only towards one person, Leo." you scoffed, dramatically rolling your eyes with arms crossed.

"I wouldn't necessarily call it cruelty, per say." he digressed. "But more how I process my feelings...and show affection." Your eyes widened a bit at his half confession.

"Are you really going to sit here and say you bullied me relentlessly over some stupid crush you didn't know how to express?" You spat, eyes narrowing venomously. "Because that's fucking pathetic."

"But it's the truth." he confirmed. "That doesn't make it any less wrong, though. I truly am so sorry, (Y/N). I don't expect forgiveness, but I wanted you to know that there was never a problem with you, it was all me."

You sat in silence for a moment, emotions a flurry of negative and positive. "Thank you for telling me this." you finally said calmly. "But I'd still like to stay somewhere else tonight. I don't feel comfortable here." Leo felt his heart break over you again, just as it bad many times before, and he hung his head low. "But you can walk me there, if you want."

-----

The trek across town was mostly quiet. there was so much to said, but it seemed no one had the right. Leo politely carried your trunk as you walked along side him to the closest budget in. He looked the place up and down while you booked a room in the lobby. He didn't like it at all. It was run down and shady, with barred windows siding, and tacky, dated furnishings. Though, he guessed he didn't have the right to complain if you felt safer here then in his home.

"Well, this is me," you sighed as you both strolled over to your door. "I booked this room for three days, that should give me plenty of time to find an apartment without- well, ya know." He nodded, humming in agreement.

"Well...I guess I'll let you sleep then." he muttered softly, turning to leave.

"Hey, uhm- Leo?" you called out, voice laced with uncertainty.

"Yeah?" he replied, a little too excitedly, turning back to you with a hopeful gleam in his eye.

"M-maybe we could get coffee together sometime this week? After I find a place and get settled in, I mean."

"Coffee...y-yeah. I'd like that, thanks."

— has ahyeon left babymonster?;;

mainly geomancy reading

thanks to @/geomanteia (not tagging the account because i don’t quite know if letty would be fine with tagging), i found my new joy when i can do readings at night without waking someone up, lol

i could say this was requested from x, so let’s check!

i would say no, so here i’ll focus on 3 things.

1) her relationship with yge: 1st house, fortuna major

her relationship with the company is actually really great. i would even say one of the greatest, which considereing what is the company and how they function, quite odd. from what i see, they benefit each other. however, the neighbour house shows losses. ahyeon’s scandal, coincidence or not, slows the girls’ debut. since i asked did she left yge and baemon, it looks like she’s “on hiatus” as babymonster member.

2) her situation according to outsiders: 3rd house, caput dragonis

it looks like according to the k-netizens and possibly the international ones, the company haven’t teached ahyeon anything on purpose to see her patience and emotional support, i.e. to test her. therefore, it can be yge’s fault for ahyeon’s scandal. i would even say they leaked these videos on purpose😐

3) how her situation affects her career: 4th house, rubeus

unfortunately her situation is badly affected for her individual relevance, so unless she personally apologises and “fix” herself (admit to her mistakes and learn her lesson), her situation won’t be brighter. the neighbour house (fifth) shows the same relationship with her fans, her audience, so therefore is really worse but can be fixed.

4) ahyeon herself: 7th house (because i am the asking this), cauda dragonis

because of the current situation with her, she doesn’t trust the company. perhaps she have learned the truth about her company’s intentions? she blames the company for her mental health, it seems to be unstable because of the drama. the situation’s secrets (6th house) are just the luck for ahyeon because of her realising her mistake. unfortunately, due to her company, there are doubts if she realised this as her mistake or not. we aren’t sure if she can apologise properly. the other one, 8th, since it’s about personal gains, it shows losses, as we’ve already seen. unless she’s “doing better” and apologise properly, which if yg doesn’t allow, they have to unless ahyeon will be in this situation for a while (i’d say дередже but since it’s dialect word? phrase? in bulgarian, situation is properly enough) in its best and baemon’s debut could be delayed indefinitely unless there are other actual issues.

conclusion (answer, laetitia): no, she’s still babymonster member. furthermore, she might have more creative freedom than the rest of the girls. the company like her so much to the extent they’re willing to make her “more free”. the hiatus seems to be ahyeon’s choice.

oracle card for clarification: successful career (i think it’s self-explaining lol)

tarot cards for clarification: 6 of pentacles, queen of wands • the hanged man

basically the bottom card confirmed the hiatus. queen of wands is ahyeon herself bc she’s leo while the 6 of pentacles can be the rest of babymonster which explains the hiatus enough imo. since the both cards are positive.. there’s no sense to say she’s leaving or something as of now.

(chart, i numbered the houses)

Edit, again: about my “chart”, i added the judge, the 15. with the 1st mother, 1. Since the first mother represents me, Ahyeon personally is represented by the 3rd daughter, 7th house. I am still not sure if I made a mistake, but if I add the third daughter to the judge, it would be Acquisitio (2 dots, then 1, then 2 and in the end one). The overall answer isn’t changing in my point of view.

Edit: Yeah, I did. Since I practice geomancy with questions related to me ofc I’ll mix them up😭

[ KAORI AT THE … VMAS / MAMAS 2012 ! ]

ah, end of the year award shows. a time when iconic performances make history, friendships can be forged, and unnecessary drama can make people—artists and fans alike—tear at each other’s throats. of course, as a rookie, KAORI attended as many as she could, ready to perform and hoping to snag an award or two. so, come along and see what happened on those fateful nights !

STYLING !

left :: vmas ! right :: mamas !

it’s no surprise that she looked good !

like before, the styling was kept rather simple, but ofc kaori’s team still did an incredible job !

they carried on the theme for the tour but pulled out ALL the stops for award szn ! like they literally had her in archive versace

kaori went kinda viral for the lil purple number she wore to the vmas even !

but she made waves with her makeup ! ofc she was covered in her signature rhinestones that her stylist shaped into stars and her star tattoos AND she had these lil holographic stars and glitter on her eyes that matched the colors of her dresses,,

like too cute mhm !

kaori’s hair was kept pretty simple for both award shows, but it was still adorable

for the vmas her hair was kept in this messy bun, but she had purple highlights in that matched the color of her dress !

for the mamas her hair was kept straight but a part of it was up in this lil pouf ! she also kept her regular multicolored highlights bc there was a LOT of yellow going on shdksksj

kaori’s stage costumes had a lot of 90s inspo, plus the military theme from her tour

she had costume changes for BOTH award shows, but we’ll get into that later WIDMSJD

AWARDS !

VMAS !

BEST NEW ARTIST (WON !)

BEST POP VIDEO … TREAT ME

BEST CHOREOGRAPHY … TREAT ME

MOST SHARE-WORTHY VIDEO … TREAT ME (WON !)

MAMAS !

BEST NEW FEMALE ARTIST (WON !)

BEST NEW ASIAN ARTIST (WON !)

BEST STYLE IN MUSIC (WON !)

PERFORMANCES !

VMAS !

at the vmas, KAORI was only allowed to perform one song, which ended up being her debut single, “TREAT ME.” the performance began with KAORI strutting to center stage in sync with the song’s intro, accompanied by a group of female dancers. right before the first verse, the rest of her dancers join her. KAORI is wearing a WHITE two piece ensemble, and noticeably doesn’t have a mic in her hand, opting for a headpiece instead.

as she sings, KAORI walks around the stage, smiling and interacting with the crowd before rejoining her dancers for the chorus. she jumps around during it, encouraging the crowd to dance. right before the song’s outro, KAORI’s white two piece gets ripped off to reveal a BLUE lace up one, and a dance break starts.

following the dance break, KAORI struts down the runway and hypes up the crowd some more. towards the end, her dancers run up to join her on the secondary stage, and they perform one last move before getting into their final positions. KAORI, proving that she’s singing live, screams the last “SO COME ON” into her headpiece just as the song ends.

now this performance had people TALKING ! so many critics were saying it came shockingly close to britney’s performance at the vmas 2000 ! of all performances !

ofc it was a bit simple but a. she was only allowed to perform one song, b. the stage was pretty small, and c. it was her first vmas performance !

a lot of people were calling her costume change the best part, and others said that it was impressive that she was dancing and singing at the same time, especially since there had been a decline of those types of artists in western music in the early 2010s 😭

and kaori was trending for a MINUTE after this ! like ooooouuu new fans alert !

MAMAS !

in comparison to her performance at the vmas, which was a little over 4 minutes long, KAORI’s performance at the mamas was 6 minutes long. subtitled “THE ONLY GIRL / WELCOME TO THE PARTY,” the performance begins with a marching style dance intro performed by her dancers, before they suddenly stop. the intro to “TRY ME” begins playing, and KAORI appears on a raised platform wearing a WHITE naval styled costume, and notably holding her signature white handheld mic this time.

she performs choreography with her dancers for about a minute, before everything transitions into “TREAT ME.” KAORI walks down the stairs of the platform and onto the main stage, walking around and hyping the crowd like she always does. 2 minutes into the song, KAORI hands her mic to a dancer, a dance break starts. in the middle of it, her uniform gets taken off to reveal a RED cropped ensemble, and she takes off her hat and throws it to the side. following the dance break and during the buildup into the song’s outro, KAORI screams “LET ME HEAR YOU, MAMA !” (and in english) in place of her regular “MAKE SOME NOISE.”

at the end, KAORI returns to the platform she first appeared on, performing the last move with her dancers and getting into her final position. her dancers are spread out down the stairs, making it look like they’re almost covering the entire stage. like before, KAORI screams her last line, which—at that point—had become another signature of hers.

oh girl this was the performance of the NIGHT !

kaori had to kick it up a notch since she was allowed to perform more than one song, and she had such a fun time up there !

ofc the costume change was one of the main talking points afterwards,, like she was one of the top searches on naver bc she truly came out the gate SWINGING !

and when i say kaori switched costumes in the middle of the dance break, i MEAN it

you know those lil “pauses” in the dance break in hyuna’s “change” or in the one in that 2006 live performance of namie amuro’s “alarm” ??? think that !

and her lil “thank you” at the end of the performance,, she was getting all shy SECONDS after she tore that stage up !

but truly kaori ruled that night,, the “baby amuro” nickname was indeed warranted !

BEST MOMENTS / INTERACTIONS !

VMAS !

y’all she had a BLAST that night !

like girl she interacted with so many western celebs it was truly insane

the second most fan favorite moment that night was definitely when kaori literally got a standing ovation from the celebs in the crowd !

she was shocked asl girl like her eyes widened she put a hand to her chest sjmskdk she was practically asking if it was for her like

girl OFC it is ! BSMJSKSJ

she truly had to take some time to process that like i can’t emphasize enough that she was literally a ROOKIE !

before her performance, though, kaori was asked last minute to present best male video and she went “???? girl are you sure ??? idk what the hell i’m doing” WEJSWJ

and she literally said that WHILE PRESENTING ! just said “i have no clue as to why i’m up here” like she is actually hilarious !

she was up there with demi lovato and rita ora though ! and her interaction with demi was insane bc they talked backstage and kaori was literally raving abt don’t forget like truly that album was her shit at 13

they bonded over the fact that they were both on disney too ! they took a lil picture like just had a great time

kaori was truly the social butterfly of the night bc she was taking pictures with EVERYONE !

she took one with rihanna and literally could not stop fangirling over her, she took one with nicki minaj and could not stop fangirling over her EITHER !

she took one with p!nk (that photo literally went down in history), miley cyrus, katy perry,, like she actually told katy that “i kissed a girl” changed her life and girl. she wasn’t kidding !

she took a picture with emma watson, green day,, like bonbons LOVE that green day pic they bring it up every time someone mentions unreal interactions between jpop / kpop stars and western celebs 😭

like literally she managed to get a damn picture with GREEN DAY !

and girl don’t get me started on the photo she took with robert pattinson and taylor lautner,, tell me why she captioned it “i’m team #edcob” LIKE ?????

a lesbian saying that is CRAZY !

she went viral again for that post alone bc she literally coined a ship name ! like tea !

but it all came full circle when kaori took a picture with kesha, one direction, AND taylor swift bc lemme tell you she was the biggest fan of all THREE of them

like the taylor interaction was too cute ! kaori was fangirling and taylor was just being so sweet and they even HUGGED ! like that truly made kaori’s night and u know what’s even better ???

kaori told taylor that speak now was her fav album, and not even a week later she got a signed copy in the mail ! like she was on twitter going NUTS abt it for a solid 10 minutes WJSKWS

luckiest swiftie award goes to her !

but THEE moment of the night was definitely kaori’s interaction with kesha bc she could not contain herself,, like her entire discography up until that point was literally kaori’s bible

and like japan’s own kesha actually interacting with kesha ??? insane !

that photo of them is a bonbon fav,, it truly deserves a place in the louvre atp

AND her interaction with psy ! they were literally dancing to “gangnam style” before they took a photo together like that was actually the best moment of the night idc !

but the true best moment of the night ?? when she won best new artist !

kaori had already won an award at the pre-show, but to win one at the main show was actually crazy,, like she didn’t even expect that girl !

she went up there just shocked and absolutely stunned,, like during the first half of her acceptance speech she was all giddy and excited, but then she began thanking her mom and she almost, ALMOST started crying

and yes her mom was there ! kaori gave her the biggest hug afterwards like it was just so sweet

all in all, an absolutely amazing night like girl kaori had so much fun and bonbons were so happy for her !

AND her friends were watching from japan too ♡

also every time kaori was on the big screen she was having a BALL like,, she was absolutely jamming out to “get the party started,” “girl on fire,” and “we are never ever getting back together” and girl people loved her for that wjsjwsjs

MAMAS !

oooo girl the idol interactions went CRAZY !

kaori was just a bit nervous bc there were so many idols, so many people, and knetz are ruthless but she honestly had just much fun as the vmas !

she was sat next to 2ne1 and allume, and being sat next to both of them had her reeling a lil BNSJSJ

like it took her a min but kaori was making small talk with both groups quite a lot,, she also got minzy and chaelin’s numbers !

she was actually trying to get minzy’s bc they’re closer in age, but minzy went all “unnie she’s trying to get our numbers” and kaori was like “damn okay” 😭

kaori ended up talking to the rest of 2ne1 backstage and ofc they got a picture together ! and girl when i tell u bonbons went INSANE,, they were sitting on twitter absolutely freaking out SMWJS

the first of many surprises !

one of bonbons fav moments of kaori at mama was every time she appeared on the big screen,, like girl she was fucking that “mr. simple” choreo UP

and when she bowed to shinee when they were passing her and the camera caught her with her hand on her heart WJSHSJ

biggest shawol ever tbh !

also ! when she and marisol were dancing to “fantastic baby” ! they barely talked at that point and they were already tight !

kaori was in the crowd going CRAZY to “gangnam style,,” idk she might be the queen of that dance but that’s just me !

that was foreshadowing 😁

and yes she did take a picture with psy,, again SJMSJS

like whew girl she took pictures with so many idols it’s actually insane,, shinee, iu, aoa, f(x), miss a, sistar, wonder girls, snsd, hyuna !

kaori was truly fangirling the ENTIRE time

those interactions with kara, miss a, and soshi were insane ! like the way kaori got the numbers of suzy, hara, sunny, tiffany, AND sooyoung ??? crazy !

she and sooyoung communicated in japanese for bit, and kaori wanted hyoyeon’s number so bad but she was too scared to ask her for it 😭

she did get it eventually though so yay !

it was the same with hyuna too skjwjdjsj poor girl

also a couple years later a bonbon on twitter noted how kaori was only getting the numbers of female idols,,

like okay lesbianism !

and now here comes MY favorite part: kaori meeting allume !

like i said before, she was actually seated next to them the entire night ! outside of small talk, however, they didn’t really interact that much until the end of the show

and when they did get to actually talk, kaori was the one to get their attention !

marisol and analise were SO excited to get to talk to kaori,, especially analise ! those 3 talked for a while jshdjdk

both kaori and analise were on disney too, so they had sumn to bond over !

the other allume girls were,, interesting WIEJJSNS especially yura and jinah like ofc kaori was still polite with them but they didn’t want to get too friendly so kaori just left them alone mostly, especially bc she was so distracted by the other members 😭

like they bowed to each other and kaori and yura talked for a min but that was pretty much it SJWIJS

hyuna was so sweet ! just complimenting kaori and everything like. she was a lil shy but so was kaori like that’s her twin she totally got it wjnsjsjd

kaori lowkey wanted her number but since both of them were kinda reserved it was just like mmmm no BSNISJM

her and eunji talked as well (only for like 5 seconds though 😭) ! like eunji brought up “retro future” and kaori went “omg you know that song ???” and girl that was it,, like marisol got kaori’s attention right after

but yeah marisol and kaori clicked so well ! they were telling each other jokes, chatting up a storm, and taking a whole lot of selfies WMSJK like marisol kept going “your stage was so cool omg !” and kaori kept saying “omg thank you !”

ofc both of them had to leave eventually but before they did, analise NEEDED to take a picture with kaori !

and it was the cutest picture ever ! like girl the height difference was obvious wieujsnsn and they actually took like. 3 different pictures 😭 and in one of them kaori and analise did the gyaru peace sign !

lowkey kaori started the trend 9 years before it actually became a thing !

and right before they left, they managed to squeeze one last picture of kaori and the entire group !

y’all know that weird ass upside down peace sign that people were doing in 2012 / 2013 ??? kaori was doing that in nearly every picture like she could not stop sjuwjsj

also ! marisol and kaori did exchange numbers ! and marisol gave her a hug ! too cute !

another fan favorite moment was when kaori won best new female artist ! like she had literally beat out ailee and aoa of all artists !

ofc she had to thank her mom in her speech, who was also there ! and girl when she thanked her fans there we so many people who cheered for her like she was so surprised that sm of her fans were there bc girl there were mainly kpop stans in that crowd !

like you could visibly SEE the shock on her face when she heard the cheers like

core memory created fr !

all in all it was an incredible night ! kaori had more fun than she expected, and thank god knetz didn’t crucify her SMJWKD

also, the tweet that said she got the numbers of only female idols was kinda lying skiwjsjjs like she got the numbers of a few male idols !

if not—

“come onn! give in to peer pressure!”

won’t give up until she’s convinced you to do whatever she was trying to get you to do at least once

if you’ve got low self esteem she ain’t allowing it

she’ll erase the thought from your brain before you can think it

”what do you mean you weren’t as good as everybody else?! did you see yourself out there?! do you need me to show you the video again?? you did great! you were terrific! a star!”

”i just don’t think so mina..i don’t know, i feel like ___ did way better”

”NO WAY! you are at the top of our class in every aspect and you know it! there’s no way i’m letting you doubt yourself like that so don’t even think about!”

”how can you become a hero thinking like that _____?? heroes are supposed to give people hope! not give up hope themselves!!”

yeah.

with how pushy she is, your bound to have a few more positive thoughts

”fine!! you don’t think your strong enough? let’s train then!”

she won’t go easy on you either

”i thought you said you weren’t good enough? if you really think so and you want to be, here’s the training!”

loves you to bits and pieces

‘WERE going through’

mina is a cuddle bug and will trap you if you don’t give her cuddles often enough

she traps you anyways

sometimes to mess with you

other times because she wants more affection from you

her love languages are ALL

yes. all of the above.

she does anything to make you happy and this is her way of showing it

“momo we need help with the homewor-“

hyping each other up and all

also a really good gift giver

she remembers stuff you say you like wayyyy better than her homework

so she gifts you whenever she sees something she knows you’d like

or wants to see your surprised happy face

she’s just a ball of love

please love her back

she’s not the best at cooking or baking 😭

if you are she won’t stop bugging you to cook/bake

especially bake-

for her and the girls-

lowkey brags about your skills

”seee? i told you ____ can cook really well!”

”____ is amazing! i’d bet on them in a baking competition with sato!”

her room isnt messy she just has a lot of stuff

also she trusts you a lot with her secrets

like you were the first person she told that kirishima had black hair in middle school

she gossips to you as well

even if you don’t wanna hear please listen!

your her partner in crime!

if your really strong and at the top of your class she’ll brag about that too

she doesn’t mean to put anyone down but she’s just so proud of you!

There’s something so utterly delightful about coming back to my dads house one week after coming out to him about the name and pronouns thing and whatnot and finding that all of my accounts on every video game console and streaming service he owns have my new name already…

You know, I think there’s been a growing awareness and acceptance lately of lesbians/wlw with very complicated relationships with gender and unconventional gender identities, and that’s super awesome!! But I also feel like there should be an equal amount of positive energy and attention for gay men/mlm/nblm who also have complicated relationships with gender. So!! Here’s to all gay men/people who use she/her pronouns, who use they/them pronouns, who use neopronouns, who are very feminine, who may want to physically transition to be more feminine, whose identity as gay/mlm is intrinsically tied to their gender, whose gender identity may seem to contradict their sexual identity; to all the drag queens, femmes, and nonbinary men-loving people - your gender-fuckery is just as valid as anyone else’s gender fuckery, you are allowed to label your sexuality however you damn well please, pronouns do not equal gender, and you are valid, incredible and recognized!

✩°｡ ⋆⸜ 🎧 Welcome to my official get-to-know-me page or should I call “rant page” lol. I don’t usually post stuff about my personal life online but maybe you’ll find something strange abt me here :> Take note, some of my posts may or may be not directed at anyone. I will not reveal who I am pointing towards to as this may lead to misunderstanding AGAIN lmao.

✧･ﾟ: ✧･ﾟ: Here are some random stuff about me :･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ✧

˙˚˙ I was born with a skin tag on my ear. “Wtf is that?” It’s an extra skin that kinda looks like a smol pinky. I was so insecure about it before and decided to hide it behind my hair. Back in elementary, it’s required for u to wear a ponytail or headband😭… It was something that bothers me a LOT so I got it removed at 6th grade as a graduation gift. I waited so long for this moment to happen since I finally had the chance to wear a ponytail without worrying too much

˙˚˙ Are you currently writing a book? Yes! I’ll publish my book after I revise the last chapter. Since ur a special follower, u can get a sneak peak with the title :D I’m still making sum few changes abt it but I already have thought of a draft— “I Am An Introvert So Don’t Mess With Me.” This title kinda sounds a little off but I’ll try working on it. Introverts nowadays are determined to be “weak” cause many of us believe that if you’re alone, you have no role in society. In this book of mine, you’ll explore different experiences I had as an introvert my entire senior year. SHOULD I SELL THEM OR GIVE THEM OUT FOR FREE?? Any thoughts 💭

˙˚˙ What makes a person a “friend?” umm.. I have my own opinion about this. To whoever’s reading this, I hope you don’t get offended in any way. SOOO before I answer this question, let me tell you a story ;-; There’s this one girl who I considered as my friend but I felt like she only saw me as a friend of convenience— which means pretending to be someone’s friend in order to use them for your purposes. She messages me whenever she needs to rant about her so called “Ex” which is one of my friends too. As her “friend,” I mean acquaintance rather… I did what is right— told her to cut him off. After months of being her acquaintance, she suddenly treated me like TRASHHHH. I know she was bullied by sum mean girls during highschool but now she became the mean girl towards me lmaooo.. This generation kinda sucks for me since many people are trying their best just to fit in, no offense. I think you can only consider someone a friend if they’re genuine and consistent.

˙˚˙ Are you having a hard time to start a conversation and make friends? Yeah. I’m not used to be so extrovert-ish ;-; Though I may be a good listener, there are times that I just want to be on my own bubble. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate it when someone tries to approach me, but it just scares that the person I trust the most becomes my enemy. MY TRUST ISSUES are so high to the point that I might break your heart 😭. I don’t want that to happen tho. There are times that I js get scared and want to be careful w my surroundings. I’m so tired of having problems bro 🥲

˚˙ If you’re an introvert, why are you so active when it comes to acads/reporting? OKAY.. so there’s a huge difference between being shy and being an introvert. Most of us are confused between the terms but for me, an introvert can be vocal if they want to. I have two separate lives: school life and personal life. I am a different person when it comes on both sides. There are various types of introverts and I consider myself as a confident one 🤓. Because of continous reading and binge-watching stories, I’ve adapted many personal skills that made me successful in my overall academics. For example, my love for watching MSA videos allowed me to have a skill of public speaking. Personally, I am not a fan of talking in a crowd full of people but because of the inspiring stories, I am here today :DD BUT TO BE HONEST, I still have that anxiety inside of me whenever I try to speak in front 😭. I js know how to look confident, that’s all :’’3

˙˚˙ I get socially drained most of the time. If you notice me not talking, that means I need to recharge. I don’t like initiating conversations with a smol percentage of social battery. I swearrr!! I love meeting new ppl but I hope they don’t mind if I’m inconsistentz

hello :)) so I was listening to dress (taylor swift) and i couldn't stop thinking about friends to lovers w jack. The lines "pining and desperately waiting // i don't want you like a best friend" and the bridgeeeee omg it will be so perfect😭😭😭 idk if you want to write, I just thought i should share this. Love ur blog sm❤

Thank you for the love ♥ Some of my fave Jack stories on here are friends to lovers. I kinda wrote it in my fic Reunion, but after listening to Dress on loop, I had to write another version. Plus, I have been re-watching Jack’s videos from 2018/2019 when he would talk about his high school years so, I’ve been wanting to write a good flashback. All this to say, I got a little carried away and this is 5k+ words, but at least it’s not 20k this time, right? :D Hope you like it, anon!

Pining in Anticipation

Warnings: Fem!reader, childhoodfriend!reader, light angsty to fluffy, suggestive but no smut, mentions of drug and alcohol use, mutual pinning, long (5k+ words) fic

You bit your lip as you stared at the price tag again, pointing the piece of paper toward the mirror to get a better view. You knew it was a bad idea to try on the dress even though it was out of your price range. You dismissed the chance that you would even like it on. After all, every other dress you tried on didn’t fit the way you liked. You just wanted the experience of trying on a dress 3 times the budget you set for yourself in your mind. Just your luck that it would be the perfect look.

You turned in the dress with a bit of difficulty. It was long dragging on the ground. However, it would give you the excuse to wear the heels that you had been saving for a special occasion. With the added height you would be able to have the dress just kiss the floor. You tried to talk yourself out of other elements of the dress. Strapless wasn’t usually comfortable, but this fit you like a glove. You had taken off your bra to get the full effect and nothing showed through despite the cool temperature in the fitting room. The slit was a little high, starting from the top of your thigh to allow for a full leg moment. You would have to wear pretty small underwear to hide it and walk confidently in order to keep it masqueraded. But, then you imagined Jack’s face when he saw you walking in. The breathless, frozen stare you only elicited from him two or three times in your years of friendship. The one that you strove for more often than you would like to admit. His blue eyes widened, his lips parted slightly as they curve into a smirk, and his cheeks full from when he smiles a real genuine smile.

You felt your heart doing backflips. You took a deep breath and reminded yourself that Jack wasn’t in the room. You were staring at your reflection in a Bloomingdale’s fitting room wearing a dress that was way too expensive. You decided to take the dress off. You couldn’t do this to yourself. Although you calculated the number of cup noodles and granola bars you could consume as meals in the next month in order to afford this dress, it wasn’t worth it. Not for just a starry eyed look from Jack. That was the only thing you were guaranteed, nothing more. You pressed your hand against the ruffled waist, indulging for a moment that it was Jack’s larger pale hand instead. Oh how he would make you feel small and dainty as he enclosed his arms around you and had his way with you.

You reached back for the zipper. You struggled, contorting your body in unnatural positions. This really was a freakum dress. You couldn’t take it off by yourself. Luckily, you weren’t alone.

“Mom!” You yelled for your mother who was waiting just outside the fitting room.

You could hear her feet shuffling into the area, asking the attendant for permission to enter the space. She knocked on the door and gasped when she saw you.

“I think I threw out my back.” You half-joked, trying to ignore the sharp pain in your shoulder blade. “Can you help me?”

“Honey, you look stunning!” Your mother said, closing the door behind her. She held your shoulders turning you to the mirror. “This dress was made for you. Well…it’s a little long, but we could take it to my tailor and take a bit off so that you won’t trip on it. Oh and those heels you got the other day would add some height…”

“It’s too expensive, Mom.” You stopped her, ignoring the flutters of validation in your stomach. “Now, help me get out of it before I sweat on it too much and they make us pay for it.”

“B-But…” Your mom grabbed the tag and you watched her eyebrows fly up. Her lips formed a flat line. You realized you were clinging to hope that the dress wouldn’t seem too expensive to her, but that was a pipe dream.

“Come on, I can find something at like Forever 21 or like H&M or somewhere.” You forced a smile. “This was an indulgence just coming into here. It’s so expensive.”

Your mother looked at you sadly for a second before unzipping the dress. “You’ll look beautiful in anything, sweetheart. But this dress is wow. I mean this is Jack’s big-celebration-party-music-video thing…I figured you’d want to go all out.”

You could feel your skin heating up at the acknowledgement of the situation. No one knew how you felt about Jack. The years of pining and anticipation for something more than just friendship with Jack was hidden behind quick jokes and talks of memory lane from growing up together. Only your mother knew how badly you had it for Jack. One because she was your mother. Two because she was the only person you confided in after the incident.

It was 2017 - one year since you left Louisville to go to college. You were back in the city for a couple of weeks before you started your internship. You had a new air of confidence now. Your college was a big school and you were used to going to parties every weekend with your friends. You weren’t the most popular girl, but you never left a party without making out with some guy who claimed to have “been waiting for this moment forever.” Your campus persona was so different to the girl next door image you had back home.

However, you weren’t the only person who fled the city that had come back in the summer. Jack and the other members of Private Garden were also lurking around. You didn’t expect to see him since he had just moved to Atlanta. But, you figured it would be a good time to test your new attitude. The party, as usual, was in Old Louisville. It was hosted in one of the large Victorian houses that you assumed must permanently smell like beer, weed and teenage regret after years of “bible studies” aka these raging parties that went on until the police showed up in the wee hours of the morning. However, these parties were core memories of your high school years which meant that you were positive Jack was going to be there too.

You wore one of the usual party outfits at the time: sneakers, crop top, and short-shorts. Not what you would wear these days to an event, but it was the uniform for girls in their late teens at the time. You spotted Jack quickly, towering over his friends. His hair was long in the front almost covering his eyes but tapered in the back. He had on thick framed glasses, an oversized sports jersey with a white tee underneath and baggy jeans. Thinking back on it now, it looked wild. You would laugh out loud if you saw him in an outfit like today. At the time, he looked so hot. You casually made your way through the crowd, taking the lead of one of your best friends who was also on the prowl. As you weaved through bodies, you lost sight of Jack, only to find him at your side.

“Y/n,” Jack yelled, but it sounded natural over the loud music. “Long time no see.”

“Jack!” You yelled back, hugging him. He wrapped his arms around, pressing his cheek on the top of your head. Despite it being hot and sticky, you relished in the attention.

“You look good.” Jack remarked, breaking the hug to look you up and down. “College seems to be treating you well.”

“You too. Are you signed yet?” You asked.

Jack tossed his head from side to side. He had that smile that told you he wanted to say more, but couldn’t. “It’s in the works. I can’t speak on it yet. But stuff is cooking, don’t worry.”

“I’m happy for you, Jack.” You grinned at him. “I really am.”

“Do you have a drink?” Jack asked, raising his cup toward you.

You shook your head and he took your hand to lead you to the drink area. You tried to remind yourself not to read much into it. For Jack, this touch was no different from when you were kids playing in his backyard and he would drag you around because your legs wouldn’t keep up. However, you couldn’t deny the tinge of disappointment when his hand left yours to grab you a drink. He picked up a hard seltzer and popped it open for you. You frowned,

“What makes you think I didn’t want a beer?” You questioned.

“This is good, I promise.” Jack confirmed.

You looked at the can. You didn’t recognize the brand as you read it out loud. “White Claw? Is this even good? It looks like adult Arizona.”

“You say that like it’s a bad thing.” Jack teased.

You sipped it surprised to find it mildly sweet. You didn’t think it would get you drunk, but thanks to the shots you pregamed before coming, this gave you a comfortable buzz. It was enough that you found yourself moving to the dance area with Jack and grinding on him. You reached your free hand back to grab Jack’s neck, winding your hips on his crotch. You couldn’t see his face, but judging from how he dipped his hips to meet your backside, you figured he was game. Soon his free hand pressed on your hip. It was the universal signal that you made the right move. One or two songs in, you felt his hand on your hip, slowly trail up your stomach, up the center of your chest and to your neck. He pressed his hand flesh against your neck to bend your head backward.

Jack’s lips met your instantly, his tongue swiftly following to taste you. He tasted like a mix of alcohols: beer, vodka, tequila…probably from taking shot after shot. You wondered if you tasted like the tequila shots you and your friends did before coming or if it was only the fruity hard seltzer on your tongue. You did your best to keep grinding on him, despite being enraptured by the intensity of the kiss. You played with the hair at the nape of his neck and felt pleased when you heard a moan fall from his lips. This was a moment you would relive forever. After a decade of friendship, you were finally kissing him. He finally wanted you back. You could explode.

After that things get hazy. You remember you and him were being pulled away by your friends. Someone got into a fight and things were only going to get worse from there. There was a new spot that everyone was going to, but it was unclear which was the real place and which was just a lame spot someone was trying to hype up. You remembered going to Qdoba with your friends and throwing it up a couple hours later. But, when you went to bed that night, all you could do was remember Jack’s soft lips and that was all you needed to drift to sleep.

One day passed. Then two. Then three. No text or call from Jack. You knew he was still in the area. Whenever Jack was in town, he was the gossip. Everyone was buzzing about where they saw him and who they saw him with. You were a wreck. You did a good job of pretending in front of friends the first day, but by the second day you couldn’t leave your room. Why didn’t he call? Why didn’t he text? You were practically next door neighbors, he could even come over!

In an attempt to get you out of the house, your mother asked you to go to the pharmacy. You did so begrudgingly, slipping on sweats, a tank top, and a baseball cap for the trip. As you waited in line, you heard someone call your name. A pit developed in your stomach as you looked up to see Urban. His hair was longer than you remembered, but still blonde and majestic as always. He was high, his aquamarine eyes were a tinge red and in his hands were enough snacks to last a week.

“Hey Urban,” You forced a smile, trying to hide your concern of Jack being close behind.

“Y/n, good to see you.” Urban said, his voice the usual slow timber when he was high. “Has, uh, Jack reached out to you yet?”

Your cheeks flushed as you shook your head. Urban sighed, air being blown dramatically through his nose.

“F-cking coward.” He rolled his eyes. “Jack keeps talking about what happened between you two. At the party a couple nights ago?”

Your heart started beating faster. You were hoping the confession would come from Jack himself, but if Urban clued you in on Jack’s feelings you could finally tell Jack how you felt about him. You nodded for him to continue, concealing your smile.

“He’s really sorry, Y/n. He feels so bad for disrespecting you like that. Tossing out years of friendship.” Your face dropped as Urban continued. “Jack really went in this year on trying everything: alcohol, drugs, and any kind of vice really. Yesterday was another day of experimentation and I think he got a little twisted. I’m sure he’ll apologize to you properly, but I think he’s afraid that you’ll hate him. That kills him more than anything.”

As you blinked to keep tears falling from your eyes and made the biggest smile you could muster as you shook your head to confirm you weren’t upset, you realized you did hate him. You hated him for getting all the wrong signals. You hated him for not giving you a chance to be more than a friend. You hated him for being a coward.

You were saved by being the next person on the line. You paid for the items and then went back home. You held up a good front up until you put the items on the kitchen table. Before you could make it to your room, tears were pouring out. Your mother made herself available to listen and that’s how she learned about your feelings for Jack. Of course, she suspected it. You two practically grew up together and used to play “marriage.” Part of her assumed this was just some misunderstanding and she wanted to tell you that you should just tell Jack how you felt. But, she knew that ruining the friendship was much worse than a flighty fling, so she let you cry your heart out without saying a word.

You would’ve hated Jack for longer if he didn’t try to hard to make it up to you. You were one of his posse for the rest of the time you were in Louisville that summer. You traveled around town with him, meeting all the great entertainers in Louisville, and eating at all your favorite spots. Spending time with him every day made it hard to be mad at him. It also made it hard to squash your feelings for him. You decided to store the kiss as one of those memories that you kept tucked in your heart and to enjoy your friendship as is.

At least, until moments like this. As you held the dress to your chest to keep it from falling down, you realized that this was a lot like five years ago. You were still hoping to make Jack stare at you like that one more time. In a way, you felt like this was your last chance for some reason. There was a clock ticking but you weren’t sure who started it.

“Yes!” Your mother yelled excitedly, startling you.

“What?” You turned around.

“There’s a stain.” She pointed to a part of the red fabric that had a dark blue smudge. “Nothing Wendy, our dry cleaner, can’t get out, but it means that we can negotiate a discount.”

Your eyes lit up, but worry was in your voice, “It’s still going to be expensive.”

“True…” Your mom nodded. “...but I don’t actually need a new dress. And your sister is going to wear the suit she wore to prom. And God knows what your brother will wear, we can just hope it’s clean. So, my money plus your budget money should cover it.”

“Thanks, Mom.” You squealed, using one hand to hold the dress up and the other to grip her in a hug.

“Of course, sweetheart.” She pulled back and grinned at you. “I know you’ll never say out loud how much this means to you, but...I just want to help. I know you’re an adult now, but, I couldn’t do anything to help you last time.”

You smiled at her nodding slightly. “I love you, Mom.”

“I love you too, Y/n.”

You entered the venue in awe. You sometimes forgot that outside of the Victorian homes, there were actual mansions in Louisville. The ceilings were so high, you couldn’t help but wonder if they hired Spiderman to put up the decorations. It looked luxurious and exactly like the theme promised: A King’s Ball. It was for Jack’s new music video and he invited a bunch of people to come into be extras. His family was there, so naturally your family was invited too. You and your brother were the same age as Jack and his brother , Clay, respectively. Your brother played on Clay’s soccer team and the two still hung out from time to time. Your sister was really just excited to wear the shiny, gold, rhinestone encrusted suit that she wore to prom to match her girlfriend’s dress. She wasn’t close to the Harlows, but enjoyed treats like this. You could tell her girlfriend was enjoying it too.

You were worried that you were overdressed until you saw the Met Gala level outfits of the other people in attendance. All the parents that had been cordially invited, yours and Jack’s included, seemed out of place in their cruise ship evening attire. You were middle the pack in terms of showy-ness, but you looked damn good. You had done your hair nicely and really took time with your makeup and nails. As you navigated the venue, you realized that the chances of running into Jack were slim. There were the paid video models up front, and most of the invited guests were on the second floor balcony that over looked the first floor. You swallowed, feeling a bit of regret at buying such an expensive dress only to not be seen in it by the person you bought for.

Still, you enjoyed watching Jack at work. He had a swagger in his movements that seemed forced in his younger days that was natural now. He was still a flirt, wrapping his arms around different girls and dancing with them suggestively. This earned disapproving sounds from your mother and you could only smile at her support. Once the video wrapped up, everyone was invited downstairs for food and mingling.

Much like the house party from a few years ago, you spotted Jack a mile away. He was wearing an all-white suit that made him look amazing. In comparison to that night, his curls seemed so much shorter, but it fit his face better. You could really see the sparkle in his blue eyes with this new cut so, you weren’t complaining. Despite your goal of saying hi to Jack, you found yourself running into old classmates and catching up. When you were finally alone, you looked around for him, but couldn’t spot him anywhere. A tiny hope developed that Jack would pop up like he did that first time. When you felt a tap on your shoulder, a grin spread on your face when your wish came true.

“Jack!” You grinned.

“You look f-cking gorgeous, Y/n.” You couldn’t place the emotion in his voice. It wasn’t quite shock or amazement. Much to your dismay, it also wasn’t lust. But, you could tell him meant it.

You hugged him and Jack hugged you back tightly. You realized that the events of that previous night were repeating itself.

“You didn’t experiment with a bunch of drugs tonight, right?” You asked him, teasingly.

Jack blushed softly, glancing away before shaking his head. “I was hoping you wouldn’t bring that up. No, I’ve been letting go of that.”

“Body got rid of ‘em toxins?” You asked with a smile.

“Well, I dabble.” Jack grinned, clearly pleased to hear you quoting his lyrics. “But, for the most part I try to stay clean. And stick to just alcohol when I’m not.”

“Good for you.” You smiled. Something emboldened you and you weren’t quite sure what it was, but you added. “Too bad though. I was hoping to test out if you became a better kisser since then.”

Jack’s eyebrows raised. “Are you saying my skills weren’t satisfactory before?”

“I didn’t say that…” You bit your lip, but that did little to conceal your smile. “I just think we can all improve.”

Jack’s eyes looked you up and down as though he was seeing you the first time. “Is this an invitation?”

Before you could answer, Jack was clapped on the back by someone you didn’t recognize. You could tell Jack wanted to hear your response, but you smiled politely and walked away. You turned back to see if he was watching you and he was. He wasn’t staring per say. They were little glances as he spoke to the other person, clearly trying to see where you would go next. You continued to work the room, trying to stop your heart from beating faster. You worried that you blew your chance. That Jack wouldn’t ask you that question again.

Cursing yourself, you walked to where you assumed the bathroom was. You opened room after room, but couldn’t find a toilet. All this decoration and no one bothered to put up a sign to show you where the bathroom was located.

Frustrated at the last failed attempt, you slumped against the wall.

‘Don’t cry. Don’t cry. Don’t cry…’ You told yourself. There was a part of you that felt a bit classy as you were about to cry in a mansion in expensive dress over a rapstar. How very 2009 Disney Original Movie of you.

“There you are…” You heard someone say as they walked down the hallway.

Jack walked quickly toward you, a mischievous smile on his face. You stood up, frowning at him.

“I escaped.” He explained, his bright smile lighting up his whole face. He was still looking behind him every few moments as if worried he was followed. As he got closer, he saw that you were slumped on the floor, the train of your dress swooped over your exposed your leg. He must have saw the sadness in your eyes despite you trying to mask it. “Y/n, what’s wrong?”

“I-I” Tears welded in your eyes again. “I can’t find the bathroom.”

A soft smile stretched on Jack’s lips. He let out a laugh that sounded like one of relief. He extended his hand to you, helping you up. “You were almost there.” He assured you.

Jack held your hand to pull you further down the corridor turning right to lead into another one. You were once again reminded of that night a few years ago. You wondered how much of that you were going to repeat. A cruel thought also wondered how many times Jack repeated it as well. Were you not special?

Three more doors down and there it was, a massive bathroom with a huge Jacuzzi tub and, the feature of honor, the toilet.

“Thank you…” You said, breathlessly, holding up your dress to sprint into the room. You could hear Jack’s laughter as you ran towards to the toilet, him closing the door for you. Your eyes rolled to the back of your head as you relieved yourself. When you flushed and got up to wash your hands, you heard Jack’s voice speaking to you through the door.

“Some things about you never change, huh?” Jack’s voice was in a low tone, making it deep and rumble. “I remember when we were like seven, you started crying in the pool because you had to pee, but couldn’t move.”

You blushed, turning off the water. You dried your hands and smiled. “Yeah, I remember. It was one of those things where if you move an inch, it’s going to rush out. And there was so much water everywhere and kids kept splashing.” You shuddered before scoffing at another part of the memory. “I remember you told me to just pee right there.”

Jack laughed loudly. “You looked so horrified. I remember your little voice. ‘Is that what y’all were doing this whole time?’ And when all the boys nodded, you started wailing.”

You could feel your face heating up and felt relieved Jack couldn’t see your flustered expression. From Jack’s laugh, you could picture him standing there, bent over, laughing between his words as he wiped tears from his eyes.

“My dad had to pick me up and carry me to the locker room.” You shook your head, chuckling. “But, since he couldn’t get into the woman’s bathroom and I couldn’t walk, he covered my eyes and ran with me hoisted over his head to the nearest stall in the men’s room. We had to do the same thing on the way out.”

Jack could barely speak through laughs. His laugh was high pitched and breathy. Once he started laughing, almost anything you said would keep him going. His laugh was contagious too. You found yourself laughing as well at your own expense. Some things about Jack never changed too.

“Well, thanks for redeeming yourself this time. And not just telling me to pee in the hallway.” You joked.

“Yeah, I’m not really into that.” Jack teased. “No kink shaming though.”

You opened the door, surprised to see Jack inches away from you. You looked up at him, his blue eyes glossy from his tears of laughter and the humor still in his face. Jack’s gaze didn’t waver nor did he say anything. You studied his features: his thick brows, his straight nose, his chestnut beard, his defined jaw…anything to avoid looking at his eyes as you hoped he would break the silence. When he didn’t, you asked a question that had been on your mind for awhile,

“Were you looking for me?”

“Yes,” Jack admitted, almost as if the answer was obvious.

“Why?” You asked him, furrowing your brows.

“Because, you didn’t answer my question.” Jack smiled when you met his eyes again. “Are you inviting me to kiss you?”

A smile twitched at one corner of your lips, but it wasn’t a happy one. It was accompanied by a sinking feeling in your gut. The last time you kissed Jack, he made it sound like it was his biggest regret. What game was he playing? Was he trying to get rid of you once and for all?

“That depends…” You said, dryly. “...what’s the catch?”

The grin on Jack’s lips slowly disappeared. “Catch?”

“Well, last time, I had to hear in a Walgreens that you regretted kissing me from your best friend who was high as a kite.” You hated the bitterness in your voice. “Then get paraded around like a poster for the friendzone for almost two weeks. What new hell are you devising this time?”

It was Jack’s turn to furrow his brows. He was shaking his head slightly as though something you said was untrue. But, as if realizing that those were how the events transpired in your head, he just stared at you blankly.

“Y/n, I didn’t do it to put you through hell. You’re one of my closest friends and I acted out of turn that night. I was just trying to rectify the situation.”

“Why did you get to decide how to rectify the situation? You didn’t even ask me what I wanted.” You felt everything like it was yesterday. The anger, the embarrassment, the feelings you still felt for him.

“You could have said something too.” Jack retorted. “We hung out that whole time and you didn’t even bring up the kiss once. How was I supposed to know that you didn’t regret it?”

You scoffed, looking away for a moment then back at him. “I thought that kiss said enough. That was not a friendly kiss, Jack. It was deep, it was sensual. It practically screamed, I don’t want you like a best friend.”

Jack’s breath hitched in his throat. His hand reached up to let the back of his fingernails ever so lightly drag across your jaw. You realized that despite standing so close, you hadn’t been touching. Just enough distance between, you on one side of the threshold in the bathroom and him on the other side standing in the hallway, to keep you apart, but clearly still so close. He was practically whispering,

“That whole time…that whole time we were together, I was so patient. I kept waiting for you to give me a sign that you liked the kiss…that you liked me like that. There were so many times I got us alone together, wanting nothing more than to kiss you again. My hands were shaking holding back from just taking you. Desperately waiting for you to tell me how you felt…”

“Jesus…Jack…” You shook your head before catapulting into him. You wrapped your arms around his neck and leaned in to kiss him.

Jack’s arms wrapped around you tightly as he deepened the kiss. Like last time, it was feverish and lustful. His tongue entered your mouth immediately to play with yours and it did so with the expertise of an old friend. Unlike before, Jack felt more refined. His body knew how to mold itself to yours, his tongue more controlled in its pressure, his hands more greedy with what they could hold. Jack pushed you further into the bathroom so he could step in, using his foot to slam the door.

Jack broke the kiss, cradling your face in his hands. His expression was unreadable as he looked at you, his eyes lingering on your now swollen lips. He kissed them once before kissing down your jaw and to your neck. There he kissed each spot until he found one that elicited just the right moan from you. He smiled against your skin as though he found treasure before sucking that spot gently. You moaned, trying to keep your legs from buckling. Jack held you close to him to keep you still as he gently licked the spot developing on your skin. You knew it was going to be worse in a couple hours and you were only mildly worried about the explanation to your parents.

“Finally get to make my mark on you…” He whispered into your ear. “You’re mine now, Y/n.”

A chill went up your spine. At the sound of your name, everything just stopped. You looked at him through hooded eyes.

“I want you, Jack. I wanted you then and I want you now.” You smiled when you saw the excitement flicker in his blue eyes.

He kissed you again, moving to pull off your dress. You heard a soft sound fabric tearing and you pulled away quickly. You looked down to see a slight pull of thread by the slit at the top of your thigh. “Jack, this is expensive.”

“I’ll buy you one in every damn color.” Jack’s voice was husky as he looked you up and down before pulling you back into him to resume his movements.

“Very very expensive.” You echoed. Jack groaned, but he could see the seriousness in your eyes.

“Fine take it off then.” He smirked. “I’m more excited by what’s underneath anyway.”

You smiled at him. “I can’t, I need help.” You turned around so that the zipper was facing him. “I only bought this dress so you could take it off.”

You heard Jack swear under his breath. One arm wrapped around you, pressing his hand to your waist and you felt another warm hand wrap around you zipper and pull it down.

You emerged from the bathroom in a panic. There was no way people weren’t going to notice the hickey developing on your skin. Jack wasn’t bothered by it, still on cloud nine from the previous activities.

“My dad is going to kill me…” You groaned.

“Nah, he’s gonna kill me.” Jack grinned at you. He gave a soft kiss to your temple. “But nothing I can’t handle. I do have to go back and mingle. Wanna come with?”

“With this giant thing on my neck, no thank you. Fielding questions from my parents who treat their adult daughter like a child is hard enough. I don’t need this to be everyone’s newest talking point.”

Jack’s grin didn’t seem to fade. “Oh, they will talk, baby girl. I told you, you’re mine now and I’m making sure everybody knows that.”

You blushed, unsure what to say. You didn’t know what that meant in the grand scheme things. You decided not to worry about that for right now. You learned that looking too far ahead was what did you in before. Instead, you leaned toward him for a kiss and he happily obliged.

“If you’re going to head out early, at least meet me at my place.” He dug into his pocket and handed you his keys, holding up the one for his door. Your eyes were wide, assuming he wasn’t serious. Jack smiled.

“Are you sure?” Tentatively, you took the key from his hand, already devising how you would explain to your parents that they should drop you off at Jack’s downtown Louisville apartment instead of going home.

Jack gave you a mischievous smile. “Y/n, you’re going to need help getting out of the dress again. You bought it for me so, I want to be the only one to take it off...”
