#this was also incredibly fun to write >:3 thank ya kindly

[lumiereandcogsworth]

ALSO regarding Belle and Maurice, they live in that village, does that mean they were also technically cursed along with everyone else ? do they remember anything after the curse is broken, or did they move to the Villeneuve after and live somewhere else first?

based on my own headcanon and hints from different books from the movie and such, it’s more likely that maurice brought belle there right from paris when she was a baby. so she grew up there. (and that’s where all my beloved little belle fics take place 🥹)

i think that journey took a while, as paris is northern france and they’re in “the heart of france” which i guess is the center? though i still picture them more south than not. southern center… anyway it’s a multiple days’ distance from paris, to say the least. so they still would have stayed in different towns and inns along the way (if i think about how Depressed and Numb maurice was in that journey, i’ll lose my mind) but i think villeneuve WAS where he landed. it was also a tricky journey because the plague was,, happening. so some towns were also closed off to outsiders. it wasn’t easy to stay just anywhere. but eventually, villeneuve let the weary traveler and his baby in. and maurice was too scared and traumatized to ever leave again. plague seemed to sort of evade the village, and he took that as a sign that belle would be okay there, and safe, as he promised maria. which leads him to his mantra that he tells belle in the movie: “small also means safe.”

but to answer the first part, yes!! i mean technically, it seems as though the entire world (or at least all of europe) was under the curse. not a damn soul was sending letters or visiting the french monarch ??? they simply all forgot. my interpretation is that agathe just kind of put everyone in a blissful state about the topic. like, french citizens just never found a reason to wonder/think about their prince. (even though they were DEFINITELY thinking about him A Lot before the curse, lowkey freaking out about the fact that he wouldn’t marry and get an heir in the works.) but in this state they just didn’t worry about their governance. and of course, anyone related to any of the staff members had the same blissful minds. we know that it does leave an odd feeling though, as monsieur jean says at the beginning of the movie “i feel like i’ve forgotten something. problem is, i can’t remember what.” (the thing he forgot was his wife. and his son. sjdksjdk) so it’s not a Total blissful state, but obviously the memory never returns, and in general people don’t seem to be too distressed by the feeling of having “forgotten something.”

as far as maurice and belle are concerned, they’re living like the rest of the world, simply not worried about who’s in charge. Before the curse, i do like to wonder what maurice & belle’s opinion of “the prince” was though. they’d probably hear rumors that he was apparently selfish and maybe a bit reckless. villagers aren’t gonna know all the tea, but they are the LOCAL village, so they’ve definitely seen many a carriage come through, as well as probably heard the loud parties that would occur so frequently. belle probably didn’t pay it much attention, honestly. she was probably aware that prince adam was around her age, but when she heard of his awfulness she was probably just like >:/ imagine having all that power and just Squandering it! but maurice would point out that “well maybe he doesn’t know how else to be. i don’t recall his father being much better.” and belle says “what about the rest of his family?” and maurice shrugs “well, the queen died years ago. when he was a child. i think he’s the only one.” and belle just feels… a hint of sympathy for him. but only a hint, because ultimately it’s not like SHE could do anything to help him… RIGHT?

side note, but i have this old wip/scene/thing set when belle is around seven. and news spreads that the queen passed away. maurice is reading the news like 😟 and belle asks what’s wrong and he tells her and she’s like oh that’s so sad!!!!!!!🥺🥺🥺 and he says yeah:( and tells her that “the prince is just a little older than you. he’s probably quite sad to lose his mother.” and belle’s like “🥺🥺🥺 well he’s still got his papa, right?” and maurice is like [screams internally because stop this feels too real] and says “yes, he still has his papa 🥹” and they carry on with their day, never really thinking about the prince again (until he’s older and in the news more), and not having any idea how awful it is that the prince is now stuck with his father, of course🫠

BUT YEAH ANYWAY, after the curse, memories all come flooding back, and she is suddenly able to connect the dots. she thinks it’s crazy how she could be IN the castle, SEEING portraits of the late king and the current prince, and not recognizing them at all. and adam’s just like “yeah well. the enchantress really had her fun with this one:/“ lmao. and she literally did??? she’s so powerful. she made the whole world forget about a centuries old monarchy. you gotta hand it to her, she really goes all out for making assholes learn their lessons 😮‍💨

About Last Night - P2

A/N So i know I have a million other requests but I’m a sucker for this story sooooo here’s part 2222 lel enjoy!!

Mon 12:00pm

Sirius ~ So before I read the weekend news, should I be worried about seeing any murders I was supposed to be involved in? ~

Y/N ~ Don’t worry I planted your fingertips everywhere so they’ll know you were involved as well ~

Sirius ~ Oh thank god, I needed something to destroy my reputation ~

Y/N ~ And what reputation is that? ~

Sirius ~ Oh you know, cool edgy creative writing major with a soft side ™ ~

Y/N ~ Dear god you’re one of them :O ~

Sirius ~ Ur DiffEReNT thAN OthER giRlS ~

Y/N ~ **Blocked**

Sirius ~ I sincerely hope you know I was joking ~

Y/N ~ I guess I’ll have to find out :P What are you up to today? ~

Sirius ~ Well apart from giving my alibi to police, I have about 3 hours of classes today and an essay due ~

Y/N ~ Wow, that sounds like a super fun day – any good classes? ~

Sirius ~ Yeah I’m enjoying my lit class at the moment, we are doing genre fiction at the moment so looking into how writers create worlds, even within our own world, and why genre fiction is so looked down upon in literature society ~

~ and now that I’ve typed that out I am realising that it probably doesn’t sound wildly interesting ~

Y/N ~ Hahaha nah it does! That would be cool to learn about, I’m a sucker for genre fiction tbh, could never read the classics ~

Sirius ~ That just means you never found a good classic 😉 – What kinda stuff do you read? ~

Y/N ~ look I want no judgement here… I honestly mostly read fantasy/ sci-fi ~

Sirius ~ Have you read Dune?? ~

Y/N ~ Yes !!! Holy shit such a good series !! ~

Sirius ~ I’ve been trying to get my mates to read it for a LIFETIME its so good ~

Y/N ~ I would have thought Remus would have read them? He’s always got a new book with him ~

Sirius ~ I didn’t know you knew Remus as well? But yeah, he in theory would but he also has a long list of to reads and wants to go through them one after another ~

Y/N ~ Yeah, he studies with Lily a lot and I sometimes join them 😊. Also jesus that’s commitment, I’m usually picking up another book whilst I’m halfway through another ~

Sirius ~ I have no idea how he does it, if I’m being honest, if I hate a book I just don’t finish it (please don’t tell my literary friends I told you that, I would be killed in my sleep) ~

Y/N ~ Haha your secret is safe with me – imo I reckon that’s the best way to read, like why force yourself through something just because it’s a classic or whatever, I feel like that’s why so many people don’t read a lot you know? ~

Sirius ~ Completely! I actually just realised I have no idea what you study? ~

Y/N ~ Ahh that’s because I’ve been avoiding the question ~

Sirius ~ It can’t be worse than creative writing – I won’t even get a job after uni ~

Y/N ~ Oh believe me, it is. I study communications ~

Sirius ~ Oh dear lord you are every white girl who ever existed ~

Y/N ~ I know, I’m perpetuating the stereotype its very disappointing tbh ~

Sirius ~ So is that where you work then? ~

Y/N ~ Wow you remember a lot haha yeah, I’m doing an internship in social media management, it’s surprisingly soul-sucking ~

Sirius ~ Is that surprising… 😉 ~

Y/N ~ I mean, that was thinly veiled sarcasm haha but it’s actually not all bad, the strategy behind content etc is actually pretty interesting, and I’m working for an eco-friendly company so at least I get to come up with cool environmental memes ~

Sirius ~ Ahh yes, hit the youth with the memes ~

Y/N ~ See, you’re learning the comms ways already ~

 Thurs 11:28pm

Y/N ~ Whats ya facebook? ~

Sirius ~ Uhhh… Sirius Black? It’s not wildly hard to find, why? ~

Y/N ~ I’m gonna be real, I would like to stalk you ~

Sirius ~ Is this Y/N? ~

Y/N ~ :O ok you’ve known Y/N like 2 days how did you guess that ~

Sirius ~ Cause this message felt like one of those old school msn ‘my friend hacked me !!!’ ~

Y/N ~ You’re a smart boi, Black ~

Sirius ~ thank you kindly stranger ~

 Fri 6:45 am

Y/N ~ I AM SO SORRY ~

~ MARLENE STOLE MY PHONE ~

~ I PROMISE I’M NOT A STALKER ~

Sirius ~ Why on earth are you awake right now ~

Y/N ~ Because my body never allows me to sleep in ~

Sirius ~ how rude, also don’t worry I accepted your Facebook request so you can stalk all you want 😉 ~

Y/N ~ Literally am going to stab Marlene ~

Sirius ~ At least she’s up front ~

Y/N ~ Wait why are you awake rn? ~

Sirius ~ James wants to make the firsts soccer team at uni and has decided I must train with him ~

Y/N ~ Well that’s gross ~

Sirius ~ Couldn’t have said that better myself ~

Y/N ~ so what does this training consist of ~

Sirius ~ Mainly James trying to shoot balls at my head as I attempt to goal keep ~

Y/N ~ Can’t see that ending well ~

Sirius ~ Excuse you, I happen to be VERY athletic. I am a multisided human being thanks ~

Y/N ~ I am so sorry to have placed my predisposed ideas on you ☹ pls forgive ~

Sirius ~ I will have to think about it – right now James wanted me to do suicides and I must go into hiding ~

Y/N ~ Godspeed ~

Sun 2:58pm

Y/N ~ Ok I know I promised not to stalk, but what the fuck is going on in this picture ~

~ file ~

Sirius ~ oh no no no no no no no no ~

Y/N ~ ehheheheheheheheh ~

Sirius ~ I really thought my privacy settings were better than this ~

Y/N ~ Yeah this was very easy to find ~

Sirius ~ I’m going to kill James ~

Y/N ~ You can’t blame james for this beauty ~

Sirius ~ Oh I really can, he decided it would be hilarious for us to have a photoshoot when I was completely trashed one night. And then proceeded to post everything and tag me ~

Y/N ~ James sounds like a fun night out ~

Sirius ~ I wouldn’t say that to lily ~

Y/N ~ What she doesn’t know won’t kill her 😉 ~

Sirius ~ You are slyer than I thought ~

Y/N ~ I think I’m going to frame this photo and place it all over your uni ~

Sirius ~ You wouldn’t ~

Y/N ~ You may need to convince me otherwise ~

Sirius ~ Anything to avoid that embarrassment in my life ~

Y/N ~ Perhaps you’ll just have to owe me for sparing you ~

Sirius ~ I think that’s a fair deal – what about a coffee? ~

Y/N ~ I think a coffee or two would be a fair trade off :P ~

Sirius ~ Well I have the most disgusting week of midterms but perhaps on the weekend? ~

Y/N ~ Sounds LIT ~

Sirius ~ You’ve just made me regret inviting you anywhere ~

Y/N ~ That’s what I’m here for 😉 ~

 Wed 3:07pm

Sirius ~ Bit of a creepy question, but did I see you at uni today? Navy Skirt, Black Jumper, & tights?

Y/N ~ Wow you really observe an outfit don’t you ~

Sirius ~ I mean I noticed the outfit cause I thought it looked good and then I realised it was you and so it stuck in my head ~

~ in a less creepy way ~

~ in fact let me just completely start over – were you at uni today? I think I saw you! ~

Y/N ~ Maybe, what was I wearing? ~

Sirius ~ I hate you ~

Y/N ~ 😉 Well to answer your question, yes I was at uni – it was Lily and I’s weekly cheap lunch date ~

Sirius ~ Classy ladies you two are ~

Y/N ~ Couldn’t describe us better myself ~

Sirius ~ Oh by the way, are you going to Remus’ party this Friday? ~

Y/N ~ Mmmm I was thinking about it, why? ~

Sirius ~ No reason, I just knew Lily was invited and he mentioned inviting some of her friends ~

Y/N ~ Mmmm, yeah he told Lily to bring Marlene and me along, unsure though as Lily is particularly annoyed at James this week and he will of course be there and be annoying ~

Sirius ~ What if I can promise he won’t annoy her? ~

Y/N ~ I really don’t think you should make a promise you can’t keep :P ~

Sirius ~ Ah, you underestimate me! James has to go home this weekend to see his parents so he won’t actually be there ~

Y/N ~ This is a very interesting development – we may reconsider ~

Sirius ~ Well Remus does throw a great party ~

Y/N ~ DO you actually know what James did anyway? She usually likes to rant about it but she’s been shut in her room the past 2 days ~

Sirius ~ Honestly I’m not sure, James has been unprecedently quiet as well ~

Y/N ~ Hmmm how odd ~

Sirius ~ Indeed it is ~

 Friday 4:42pm

Y/N ~ What are you guys wearing tonight? ~

Marlene ~ Not sure, I’m torn between a velour tracksuit or the classic Canadian tuxedo ~

Lily ~ Both very classy options ~

Marlene ~ You know me, go hard or go hard ~

Y/N ~ You’re both incredibly unhelpful ~

Marlene ~ Worried about meeting a certain dark haired texter? ~

Y/N ~ Am I not allowed to want my best friends’ help on my outfits?? ~

Marlene ~ I mean I can’t help you look hot if I don’t know who its for 😉 ~

Lily ~ God forbid she looks hot for herself ~

Marlene ~ Hey, you’ve gotta play to your audience ~

Y/N ~ How would you even know what he likes ~

Lily ~ She stalked him around campus yesterday ~

Y/N ~ um MARLENE ~

Marlene ~ I just wanted to know his style, habits, if he was a psycho killer ~

Lily ~ She has a point, if he’s as annoying as James we have to protect you at all costs ~

Marlene ~ We need to make sure she isn’t sucked in by his serial killer prowess ~

Y/N ~ You’re making me sound like prey ~

Marlene ~ 😉 ~

Y/N ~ How did you even stalk him, Lily has no classes with him ~

Marlene ~ I have my ways ~

Lily ~ She flirted with the office assistant until she gave her Sirius’ schedule ~

Y/N ~ You minx ~

Marlene ~ No one can resist my charms ~

Lily ~ That is yet to be determined actually ~

Y/N ~ very true Lils, we’ve never met anyone you’ve dated yet ~

Marlene ~ Sooooo not the point, and we’ve gone off topic! How are you going to wow Mr Black ~

Y/N ~ That is 100% not what I asked ~

Lily ~ you may as well have ~

Y/N ~ You both suck ~

Lily ~ Wear that flowy black dress you refuse to ever wear!! ~

Marlene ~ YES YOU LOOK BANGING IN THAT ~

Y/N ~ ugh but it’s a casual party ~

Marlene ~ Who gives a shit, stand out ~

Lily ~ He’ll be drooling ~

Y/N ~ I don’t need him to drool I just want to make a good first impression ~

Marlene ~ Aha the truth finally comes out ~

Y/N ~ if you were actually in your dorm I’d be hitting the roof with a broomstick rn ~

Lily ~ Where are you?? ~

Marlene ~ Where do you think 😉 ~

Lily ~ Not the office assistant ~

Marlene ~ 😉 ~

Lily ~ How!? I was with you the whole time, you never exchanged numbers ~

Marlene ~ Exchanging numbers doesn’t have to be an oral task… unlike other things 😉 ~

Y/N ~ We get it, your sexual prowess is above all of us ~

Lily ~ I’m honestly impressed, she was cute ~

Marlene ~ I’m offended you’d be impressed tbh ~

Y/N ~ Ok so you are both coming over to my house in an hour to dress and intoxicate me ~

Lily ~ Deal ~

Marlene ~ Maybe give me an extra 30 mins 😊 ~

Confidence... (Draco Malfoy x Female!Reader)

A/N: This cutie was so amazing and nice! I'm sorry I wasn’t very active on my old account if you want to message me with an idea I am soooooo much more likely to write that than my own ideas. Is that bad?

Warnings: Swearing, a kick to the balls counts as minor violence right?

Requested: Yass my first Wattpad request actually who really kindly let me post this here. Requested by AnxiousShortyGirl on Wattpad. I recommend you check out her works on Wattpad as she also writes some Harry Potter stuff and some Sanders' Sides things too! Also, I'm really amazed at the fantastic imagine she wrote for me!!! Love ya girl!

Draco "hates" this hufflepuff and she kicks him in a place after getting fed up of him talking crap and pansy goes to hit the girl but gets hit in the face and 30minuteslater draco is thinking about her and she just happens to be 7feet away and heres him murmuring about how confident she is so she goes up behind him and says "so you like how confident I well lets test that" and she kisses him and they both kiss you could add a part two if they end up together or just leave it like that

Word Count: 1185 (Whoo!)

Blurb: After slightly injuring the Draco Malfoy how will (Y/N) react to his absent-minded mumblings?

"Late." you heard a hiss as you burst into the potions classroom.

"I'm so sorry! I swea-"

"No swearing and no excuses Ms. (Y/L/N)!" Snape interrupted you as fast as a bat out of hell. "5 points from..."

"Hufflepuff..." you mutter. You can hear the snickers and giggles of the Slytherins and the compassionate looks from your fellow Hufflepuffs.

Why were they always so overly nice? Why couldn't they be mad at you? You didn't want their pity.

Rolling your eyes, you sat down in your designated seat.

Snape's amazing seating plan meant that you were stuck sat next to Draco. Yes, you, a quiet background Hufflepuff, were sat next to Draco "my father will hear about this" Malfoy.

"Urgh!" you groaned, putting your head on the desk.

"Late!" he poked you in the side with his finger. He was always teasing you or, more appropriately phrased, bullying you.

Well, he was less of a bully and more of an onlooker really. You sensed it was something to do with not getting his hands dirty with the likes of you as he would have probably said.

"Oi! (Y/L/N)!" You heard the distinctive shriek of Pansy Parkinson.

You sped up slightly, speed walking to get away from trouble.

"Where are you off to?" Crabbe and Goyle stood in your way as you turned the corner. It was like they had somehow managed to put their 3 brain cells together and corner you.

You thought you might as well try and escape so you turned and attempted to run past Parkinson.

She quickly grabbed your hair as you sped past her and pulled.

This certainly stopped you. You yelped in pain and dropped the bag that you had previously had slung over your shoulder.

"Pansy," a voice warned.

"Just having a little fun with the Hufflebitch first," she replied, letting your hair go.

Looking around you noticed that the voice belonged to a certain blond Slytherin.

"Keep your bitch on a leash would you?" You muttered to him.

He smirked and stepped towards you.

"I could hurt you if I wanted to, you know?" He tugged a strand of your hair. It was less harsh than Pansy but still stung a little.

"Am I supposed to be scared?" You asked cockily. Even if you were shaking with fear on the inside, you wouldn't give Draco the satisfaction of seeing you afraid.

"Yes, you are! And if you're not then we'll make you scared!" Pansy butted in, slapping you across the face.

You kept your composure but looked towards Malfoy who now seemed to be grimacing instead of smirking.

"Come on!" Draco grumbled as he turned to leave, Crabbe and Goyle following him down the corridor.

As soon as the lesson was over you were out the door like a flash. But something stopped you just as you were about to leave.

"Dumb Hufflebrat!"

You turned around to witness Draco chatting with a smug looking Pansy as he glared at you, a smirk etched on his face.

"Bet she can't do anything right!" Pansy screeched.

You decided that you'd had enough. Enough of people poking fun at you. And enough of Malfoy and his shit-eating grin annoying the heck out of you every single time you saw him.

"Stop making fun of me!" you yelled. You were fuming.

Without another moment's hesitation, you marched up to Draco and...

Well...

You kicked him.

In the balls.

Quite shocked with what you'd just done, you turned and were about to walk away when Pansy grabbed your wrist.

Looking at her you could tell she was about to hit you so you slapped her.

As she reeled back from the force of the surprise smack, you took the opportunity to swiftly slink away.

Wide-eyed and breathing heavily you sprinted to your dorm room before finally losing your composure.

About an hour or so later you decided it was time to stop sulking. Plus you were hungry and had probably missed dinner.

You thought you might as well go and get something to eat while you had the chance. You walked out of your dorm and, for once, you were glad you were in Hufflepuff because at least it meant you didn't have to walk far to get to the kitchens.

When you walked in you were hit with the smell of what was probably tonight's dinner.

It smelled delicious.

"What can I do for you, mistress?" an older looking house elf asked you.

"I would be really grateful if you could spare a minute to get me something to eat," you pleaded, "if that's not too much bother!"

"Right this way!"

You followed as the house elf weaved past the others bustling around. He stopped at a small table in the far corner of the kitchen. It was simple, wooden with four matching stools around it.

"Sit," the house elf motioned, "I'll bring the food."

You thanked him as you sat down and leaned your elbows on the table.

Several minutes later, the house elf came back. You barely noticed as you had started to fall asleep with your head nestled in the crook of your arm.

"I brought the food." the elf giggled.

With that, you head shot up and you started smoothing the bird's nest on your head down.

You promptly stopped when you noticed the smoothed down platinum blond hair of a particular Slytherin you may or may not have prevented from ever having kids.

You mumbled something about coming right back before you set off in the direction of Draco.

You had the intention of maybe apologising, though it had served him right, but that was no way to behave.

What would McGonagall think?

When you were about a foot behind Malfoy you couldn't help but overhear his conversation with one of the house elves that looked less than pleased to be tortured by having to listen to Malfoy's incessant jabbering.

"...honestly she's incredible..."

Could little Draco have a crush? You needed to know this...for research.

"...but today she kicked me! Can you believe it?"

Oh! That's not just any random girl Malfoy was talking about. It was you!?!

You felt conflicted.

"...I think she is really-"

"Really what?" you interrupted, coming closer towards Draco.

The house elf he was conversing with took this as his chance to escape and, with a look of relief, fled somewhere else.

Draco on the other hand span around like a bullet and faced you.

"Umm..." he scratched the back of his neck.

"Go on," you nod, "what am I?"

"Confident."

He looked down, shifting his gaze.

"So, you like how confident I am, huh?" you teased. "Let's test that, Malfoy!"

Before he could ask what you meant, you had yanked his tie so he was face to face with you. Or, more precisely, lips to lips with you.

That's right. You were kissing Malfoy.

More surprising than that though was that he kissed back!

As soon as you pulled away, you grinned at his stunned expression and skipped away to get your food like the innocent Hufflepuff you totally were (not).

56: what are some things you find endearing in people?

oh boy here we go this is gonna get out of control but i refuse to delete any of them

crooked teeth + imperfections are lovely!!?

when they get really excited about what they love or a thing they’re into

ppl who laugh at their own jokes or laugh so hard while they’re telling a story that they don’t even finish

when they get real flustered mid-way through their sentence,, bonus points if sweater paws

LAUGHS!!! and people who snort when they laugh are adorable, if you try and make them feel otherwise i’ll throw ya clear outta the solar system

really silly people who will just. dance or yell or be dumb + have fun. no matter who’s watching?? iconic

kindness!! kindness will always be charming

people who still laugh + hug + treat others kindly during real tough times like.. heck.. my heart

learning about their hobbies + skills!!!! is so cool!! like i have some friends who are super good at crocheting, or baking, or art, or poetry or linguistics and it’s such a wonderful thing!!?! to get to know them??! i love people’s charming little hobbies wth

people who tell life stories REALLY DRAMATICALLY even if it’s just like the tale of how in 2nd grade Janette got to be the simon says person instead of them and they’re still haunted by unbridled rage

cute little waves!!! nervous finger guns!! hand hearts!!! YEAH!!!

people who are willing to just GRAB UR HAND AND RUN WITH YOU

did i mention kindness??? i love kind people. being edgy and rude? overplayed. boring. being kind + warm despite this janked up world? that’s what i’m talkin bout baby

i love people’s little quirks or catchphrases or other little signature things... like when they do something and you’re just like YeS IT’s YOU (OR LIKE WHEN IT CATCHES ON IN THE GROUP CAUSE IT’S GREAT AND YOU’RE ALL LIKE “wow we really are becoming ___”)

i’m always charmed by humility too like... do you ever talk to someone who’s just so stellar but is totally playing it down and you just wanna hold them up like that scene in the lion king like LOOK HOW WONDERFUL

60: do you like poetry? what are some of your faves?

I do!! I wish i read more poetry, please send me some if any of you guys are into that!!! um. I love that one emily dickinson poem about hope being a bird,,, i’m pretty sure it’s called “hope is a thing with wings” or something like that! Also, my friend lyd writes incredible poetry and so does meli, i’m in awe? they’re so good? idk if it really counts as poetry but i have this book my great grandmother used to have and it reads like a poem?? it’s called “be all that you are” and it’s. precious. “welcome to midnight” is also good.. i’m just a sucker for self expression y’all

71: what’s your favorite kind of tea?

wow just go ahead and attack me like that i see how it is (jk ily anon)

um!!! i’m on a huge earl grey tea kick right now... like if you buy me a london fog, my soul’s like. bound to you. that’s just how it works, man!! it’s so comforting and cozy i love it

but other good teas: blueberry, mate (thanks ben), coconut oolong, and peach

81: describe one of your friend’s eyes using the most abstract imagery you can think of.

it’s really hard to pick one so i’ll do a couple!! this is a really funny prompt to me idk why anyways i love my friends try n imagine their eyes

1- a cool, sharp breeze, your friend’s backyard pool in august, a polished gemstone from the weird little new age store, a breath of fresh air in february

2-  dusty books in a dim-lit library, overbrewed tea in a big ceramic mug, the shadows cast by candlelight, melty milk chocolate, the... panera bread ambient music??? like... jazz..? but in a good way, i promise

3- dark, icy water after a storm, sky right as dusk fades into cloudless night, a color your grandma probably owns a sweater in

A/N: Yeah sorry I’ve been hella inactive but I literally just slammed through all these requests just for you guys bc bless I love you all so much! <3 Also yeah college AU seemed incredibly fitting given the atmosphere I was trying to create! Um yes, also Harry Flynn deadset looks/acts a bit like Sam, like obviously not but like the slicked back hair, flirty as fuck™ and has that nice deep voice. brb, I'm crying. also, Sam’s kinda a dick in this? soz

The music pounded loudly, you were almost certain it caused imminent damage to your ears and felt as though it liquefied your lungs as the bass heavy song rattled your chest. You gripped a hand in your own, turning back to face the very person you dragged along with you to one of the biggest and best college parties of the year. 

He smirked at you, the scar over his lip glinted ever so slightly under the neon lights and his slicked back hair was always a reminder of who still had your heart. Oh, you wished the guy you yanked through the sea of people was Sam Drake, but unfortunately, it wasn’t him. But it was a friend of his, Harry Flynn, who had been more than happy to jump in and volunteer as a shoulder to cry on. 

That was only given that he wanted to get into your pants, which in a way worked. Benefiting him to an extent, and managed to keep you preoccupied from the hole in your heart that Sam left after he broke things off with you. It was devastating for you, out of nowhere he all of a sudden ended things. 

It was a messy breakup, names were said, things were said that you didn’t mean and he didn’t mean. You never truly figured out why he broke up with you, but you had a fairly good idea. 

Just as the thought crosses your mind, there you saw him. A beer in one hand talking to his younger brother while the other hung loosely over a woman's shoulder. ‘That woman’ was Chloe Frazer to be exact. It had been a while since you saw him this close, and it pained you to see him enjoying himself because you certainly hadn’t enjoyed the last month single, even if you were screwing Harry on occasion. 

No one made you smile like that tall idiot did, his goofy personality and dumb jokes always put a grin on your face even if you didn’t feel like smiling. The first week was the easiest you coped after he broke it off with you because it hadn’t fully registered with you just yet. The second week was a little harder, you moped, but at least Harry offered some emotional support -if you could call pity fucking emotional support-.

The third week so far was the hardest, your brain was raking at anything to justify his decision to break things off with you. You even tried blaming yourself, that maybe you were too clingy, too needy and annoying. But that was the catch. You did nothing wrong, you were a good girlfriend to him. Loyal, trustworthy and loving.  

Sadly, the truth was that while you might have been those things to him he, unfortunately, wasn’t any of those to you. Sam was a good guy...at times... You saw that. You saw past his flaws and you saw how good he was on the inside and how kind he was to the people he cared about. Sam could never look past his own flaws. 

Insecurity is what made him end it with you. 

You, of course, don’t know that at the very moment you both lock eyes across the room full of dancing drunk frat boys and sorority girls. The thing about Sam was, he was good a reading people. Ridiculously good at reading people, and his heart ached when his eyes met yours. He could see the hurt in your eyes, the pain in your face. He even noticed the subtle frown on your face, the way the corners of your mouth turned downward. 

Sam was aware of the mistake he made the moment you left him after he broke it off. You, however, rip your eyes away from his and meet Harry’s. Despite how incredibly dim he appeared Harry wasn’t a complete idiot, he noticed who you were looking at and smiled kindly at you, tucking loose strands of hair behind your ear. 

“hey - forget about him, all right?” He smiled, cupping your face before bringing his lips to your own. You were incredibly taken aback by the gesture, in fact, it almost brought comfort to you. 

From afar Sam noticed the exchange between you and Harry, instinctively he tightened his jaw and let a displeased sigh pass his lips. He mentally reminded himself that it was him who broke it off in the first place and he had no right to get jealous. Which is correct, he had no right at all. But the more he repeated it to himself the harder he found it to resist it. 

It pissed him off seeing you with someone who wasn’t him. But he was an egotistical male who would much rather do something to rile you up and get you to come to him first since he wasn’t going to own up to his mistake. Completely ignoring his brother's story, Sam bent down and gripped Chloe’s waist, planting a desperate kiss on her lips.  

Nate just rolled his eyes and went off elsewhere leaving Sam and Chloe to themselves. He was the first person to call his brother an idiot for letting go of the best thing in his life, that best thing was you. Nate of course, loved his brother and was great friends with Chloe but he was less than thrilled to know the little negotiation going on between the two. 

Harry held you close to him in an embrace, his fingers gliding through your hair as he swayed to the beat of the music. You pulled away from his comforting embrace and see out of the corner of your eye Sam and Chloe. “I’ll get you a drink love... you need it.” You weren’t sure where this nice side of Harry was coming from, you didn’t think it was possible for him to have a nice side. 

But alas, here he was about to get you a drink to calm your nerves. “Thanks... I’ll be outside.” You smiled, wanting to get some air as the room suddenly felt stuffy upon seeing Chloe and Sam. He nodded and the two of you separated, your legs walked you to the backyard where it was mostly occupied by the resident stoners of the frat house. 

Not that you minded, they were always nice quiet people. The cool breeze was nice on your skin and the muffled beats of the music made it less suffocating than when you were inside. You wanted to be alone, whether you were going to cry or not was another thing. 

Seating yourself on the end of the pool, letting your feet dangle underneath the water you sighed. You were always a happy person, so kind and loving and incredibly happy overall, but Sam managed to rip that from you and now it was hard to even get a smile out of you. Elena was supportive through most of it, trying to help you pick yourself up but it just simply wasn’t working. You appreciated her kind words and gestures. 

Elena was another person to call Sam and idiot, she was more vocal about her disdain toward the older Drake brother for doing this to you and made it clear on multiple occasions that she no longer liked him. You were grateful to have Elena, which you did notice you hadn’t seen her since arriving. 

You hadn’t realised the tears in your eyes until one fell from your head and hit the water, making it ripple ever so slightly. Harry had made his way over to you, a beer in both his hands and he seated himself beside you, “here you go love.” You thanked him and looked over at him, wiping the tears from your eyes. “I’m sorry Harry... you don’t deserve this, you deserve someone who isn’t me... I really appreciate that you helped me but you need to go off and find a hot girl who’s better suited for you.” 

He couldn’t tear his gaze away from you, he wrapped an arm around your waist and smiled. “You’ll get over this eventually Y/N... maybe you’ll find someone else instead of that twat... I hope you realise we’re still friends, right?” You nodded a slight smile forming on your lips, “of course Harry... now go and have fun I know how much you love to party.” 

Kissing your forehead he got up and left you to yourself. You didn’t mind the peace and quiet, especially when so many thoughts consumed your mind. On his way back inside Harry bumped into Sam, purposefully, shoving his shoulder hard into the older Drakes shoulder. He was alone this time, Chloe obviously elsewhere. 

“Watch it, Drake,” Harry grunted, glaring at him. Sam rolled his eyes, returning a glare back to Harry. “Sorry I didn’t see you there little guy.” If there was one thing Harry hated that was when people commented on his height, that pissed him off. However, Sam was on a roll and continued, “how did it feel knowing you were screwing my left overs?”

“Great actually, knowing you weren’t getting them back anytime soon.” He retorted, folding his arms and eying Sam with a grimace. “Well that’s about to change, you stay away from her all right? She’s mine.” Sam attempted to be threatening, normally Harry would heed his words, but tonight he didn’t even flinch. He laughed dryly, “Oh! You think you can just go over to her and apologise and everything’s hunky dory, right? Well, good luck to you because you’ve fucked her over. Now if you’ll excuse me, I need more beer.” 

Sam glared at Harry as he disappeared into the sea of people. His gaze moving from the sweating bodies over to you sitting still at the pool’s edge. Of course, part of him was urging him to talk to you but the other part of him was too proud to do so. He fucked up. He didn’t want the world to know that. 

He caught a glimpse of the tears that rolled down your cheek, swallowing his pride and walking over to you. “Hey.” His tall figure stood beside you, his voice startled you, you hadn’t heard it in so long. If you opened your mouth you knew the sobs would start so you didn’t say anything, simply you shared a glance before returning your gaze to the water. 

Sighing he sat beside you, he didn’t realise how hurt you were. He had a basic idea that you were hurt but not this badly, you were always so strong willed and hardly cried at most things but this showed him how much more devastated you were. He wrapped an arm around you, pulling you closer to him and he sighed, “I’m sorry...” 

Those were the words you needed to hear after all this time. That he was sorry, sorry for ending things badly, sorry for not being better to you, sorry for taking you for granted. He was sorry, and no matter how sincere he was your heart still ached. But, it was a step forward for you. A step forward for the both of you.
