Sweet secret | Tom Felton one shot

Request: yes. @anonymous 

Word count: 2,710 words

Pairing: Tom Felton x reader

Note: This one was requested a while ago, I just had troubles writing it. But I really hope you guys like it! Don’t forget that my requests are still open and there’s a prompt list waiting for y’all to check it out. Also, let me know if you’d like to be added to my tag list! Take care babes xx

Being the only child of a rockstar had its own benefits. For example, it was a lot more easier for Y/N to meet her favourite celebrities and make connections with influential people from all type of industries. Having a world wide famous rockstar as a dad meant that she spent most of her time in the limelight, always travelling with him and being his biggest fan from the day she was born. By the age of sixteen, she had already travelled the whole world and successfully used her name to speak up about social issues and help different charities and organisations. She had never stopped talking about the importance of acceptance, equality, support and love. She lived her life like that. She didn’t care who you were, where you came from, as long as you didn’t hurt the ones she loved, she loved you and supported you. That was what she saw from her parents, and she was proud of her family being one of those celebrity families who never let fame get in their heads and go crazy over their net worth. They lived a humble life, and shared their love with the world.

But of course that lifestyle came with the content rumours and paparazzi chasing after them in the street. They tried to capture an awkward moment that could be laughed at, a bad hair day that could be the reason to judge, but what they wanted most, is to capture her with someone from the opposite sex. She always kept her love life private, hardly sharing any information about who she was seeing or who she was in a relationship with. She was happy that they could keep their relationship a sweet little secret for almost six months, and enjoy the privacy and intimacy of their bubble. It was until one day a fan of Tom successfully took a picture of them, being in the same car, driving around Los Angeles. 

She met Tom through a mutual friend, who was aware of their silly little platonic crush on each other and knowing Y/N and Tom, she thought they could be a power couple. So when she learnt that both of them were going in to in LA for weeks, she didn’t hesitate to throw a summer party in her beach house and invite both of them. She kept it as a secret, didn’t want them to think they are being forced into something that they didn’t want in the first place. Y/BSF/N knew Y/N just recently got out of a terrible relationship and she was a little bit afraid to start something knew, fearing that the new guy would be the same as the previous one. And she knew that Tom, no matter how many times he said and acted like he wasn’t, was lonely and wanted to finally find someone who he could share his life with. She knew she had nothing to worry about, because the second they were introduced, they just immediately hit it off and spent the whole afternoon and night by each other’s side, talking about movies, music, travel, dreams and goals, and when the cocktails finally kicked in, they weren’t shy to shamelessly flirt with each other. Tom was confident about their mutual sympathy and felt something that he hadn’t felt in a very long time, and two days later, he asked her out of their first official date. He was a real gentleman. He picked Y/N up at her flat, brought a huge bouquet of white roses to her and treated her like a queen the whole night. He arranged a candlelight picnic dinner on the beach, far from the popular parts, so nobody could ruin their first date. They fed each other with fruits and cuddled while they watched the stars. It was nothing crazy, nothing fancy and extravagant. Money wasn’t in focus, but they were. That night was all about them. And when the night eventually had to end, Tom walked her to the door and sweetly kissed Y/N. Ever since then, the couple couldn’t imagine their days without at least FaceTiming each other. They were happy and crazily in love, of course they wanted to keep that a secret as long as they could , not wanting the media to ruin in for them. But life didn’t work like that. Paparazzi had no mercy and they were paid to take preferably the highest quality pictures of the top celebs and their close family. And social media users wanted something they could talk about, because that was the main priority for most people nowadays. Stalking the subject of their obsession and use the protection of anonymity of social media to hate and judge other people. 

“Have you seen the pictures?” Y/N asked Tom when she finally found him chilling by the pool in his backyard. It was a rather hot day in LA, and he had a few days break from shooting his next movie, he wanted to get the best out of his little break and spend every single minute with his lady “My dad just sent me them” she gave her phone to Tom, so he could check out the short article with the attached photos. It was from a few days ago, when they went to grocery shopping together. They were just leaving the parking lot, and it was visible that Tom was holding up their interwind hands to his lips to kiss on her knuckles. Another picture of them showed how Tom opened the car door for Y/N, and as she was getting in the vehicle, he playfully patted her butt. He quickly clicked on the link to see the full article. It was really short, probably because the journalist didn’t have any solid evidence or information about their romance. 

“What can I say? I just love your ass” Tom handed back her phone and chuckled at her expression “Darling, stop worrying. A fan sent those pictures to TMZ, so what? They have no evidence that we’re dating” he put his hand of her calf and looked up at her girlfriend. He knew they couldn’t keep their relationship a secret forever. No matter how much Tom liked the excitement of sneaking around and having privacy, he wanted to show the world how beautiful, amazing and perfect his girlfriend was “This shall too pass, just like any other rumour that is left without a word.”

“Alright” Y/N sighed and decided to ignore the article, the photos, the comments and the mentions. Tom was right. This whole thing will be long forgotten in a couple of days, if neither of them say anything about it. In that case, the media couldn’t blow it up “I just hate the media and the drama it causes every time”

“I know” he smiled at her sweetly, not liking the frown on her face from annoyance and worry “So will you finally join me in the pool or do I have to throw you in it again?” Y/N laughed and put her phone down on the deck chair. She winked at Tom and take of the think summer dress she was wearing to reveal Tom’s favourite swimsuit, a white one-piece with a deep V-cut. He whistled at her as she was walking down the few steps of the pool and swam up to him “You just made this already hot day way hotter, baby” he pulled her close, kissing her passionately and making her forget all about that article. 

2 months later - 

Having a boyfriend who was constantly traveling and filming wasn’t making a relationship smooth, and if you add a girlfriend who was working on her own career just as hard, then you could easily how Tom and Y/N’s relationship was. But they knew what they wanted and they did everything to make it work, even if they were in two different parts of the country. They called each other every time they had the chance, made sure to send a supporting message to the other, letting them know they were proud of their achievements in life, and of course memes. Tom was a huge fan of memes, and he liked to spam Y/N with them, especially with the Harry Potter ones. Y/N lived for the smile on Tom’s face and she knew how much he loved surprises, so when she could finally take a week off from work, her first thing was to book a flight to the city Tom was currently at. The smile on his face and how excited and happy he was when he saw his girlfriend after almost two months of only being able to see her through his phone was worth anything to Y/N. 

“I missed you so much, baby” Tom said in between kisses, not letting go of the laughing girl in his arms “I was getting rather lonely without you” his was got an octave deeper and the familiar flame of lust and love appeared in his ocean blue eyes. Slowly, his lips made their way down to her neck from her lips, kissing along her jawline, holding her closer than ever. 

“Mhm, as much as I want this” Y/N pulled away and looked up at Tom, who was pouting like a little boy who’s favourite toy was taken away. It was party true, one of his new favourite things to do was kissing Y/N whenever he had the chance “You have to go live in a less than 5 minutes. You promised a Harry Potter watch party to your babies, and I don’t want you to disappoint them” she kissed his nose and forced his arms off of her waist. Tom knew he couldn’t disappoint them, and he didn’t want to, but he still groaned as he went to make sure everything was okay with the internet connection and the light ring. Y/N watched how Tom settled with his guitar and a cup of tea, already smiling that she could watch her boyfriend interacting with his fans. 

“I’ll just sing a little in the meantime” Tom said to Y/N, who was packing out of her suitcase, and changing into one of Tom’s Teddy Fresh hoodies. They were the most comfortable hoodies she had ever worn, and it was just a pleasing addition that they always smelled like Tom. She kept on packing and tidying up the mess Tom usually leaves in his room in the morning, and listened to his smoothing voice. She always loved when Tom was singing. I didn’t matter if it was a song from another artist, one that he wrote or just an improvised nonsense about something that caught his attention in that very second. She loved to see him happy, and singing made him happy. 

Tom finally started his Instagram live and was singing one of his old songs. One that was very dear to both of them, because he sang that song on their one month anniversary and  told her he was in love with her. 

“I was in the right place, at the right time, that day we spent together” Tom kept looking at her behind his phone, his smile getting bigger when she blew him a kiss “There’s no where else I’d have put myself, or to share the day with anyone else” he finished the song and greeted his fans who were already sending hundreds of heart emojis and cute little love confession to him in the comment section. Y/N layed down on the bed, with her phone in her hands and read the comments, screenshooting a few cute ones to save them for later. 

“Alright my little wizards and witches” Tom said “Shall we continue our magical journey to the one and only Hogwarts?” His voice was filled with excitement, he hadn’t seen any of the movies in so long, he really wanted to share this experience with those people who had such a huge impact in his career as an actor. Little did they know, the fans saw the secret glances and how Tom blushed at the sigh of his girlfriend taking off his hoodie, staying in only her shorts and a tank top. Even after all these months, he still thought of her as a goddess. The fans had been suspecting that Tom had someone special in his life. They caught on his glow, and how his smile became brighter. He always sang love songs during his lives and left little Easter eggs in his Instagram stories, or in his captions. They were happy to see him being in love, they were only waiting to finally be able to see who was the reason of Tom’s behaviour. 

“Questions time!” He announce after the 11 minutes of the movie ended. He grabbed his guitar again and started playing spontaneously on the strings, creating a beautiful melody. It was the moment, when Y/N realised her phone was on 5%, and her charger was somewhere behind Tom. She knew it would have been suspicious, if he just grabbed it and handed it her, so she decided to go and grab it herself. From where she was laying, it looked like her charges was out of the frame, and nobody would see her. She tiptoed to the charger and made sure not to bump into anything that could alert the fans. It was their time with Tom, and she didn’t want to interrupt their little date. 

“God, you’re so beautiful” Tom blurted out when he saw her behind him, grabbing her charger from the coffee table. As soon as the words left his mouth, they both froze. Y/N realised she was in the frame, being very much visible. She looked at her boyfriend with a socked expression, not being sure what to do next. Stay or go? Say something or stay silent? Wave or smile? As for Tom, he didn’t mind that she accidentally walked into the live. He wanted to tell the world for a while now about their relationship. He was tired of not being able to share his happiness with his fans and hiding their love. It was nothing wrong about it. Love, in any kind of form, should have been celebrated in a daily basis. And that was what he wanted.

“I guess it’s time to finally introduce you to my other family, baby” Tom put down his guitar and reached out to her hand, pulling her completely in the frame. He sat her on his lap and hugged her by the waist “Ladies and gentlemen, please, welcome the woman who has being making me the happiest man alive in the last six and a half months” he looked at her the way every girl wants to be looked at. If anyone would have question the love they had, they only had to watch how they were looking at each other. Love, adoration, passion and devotion. It was all in one single look “Sorry for keeping this a  sweet little secret for so long, but I just wanted to have her for myself as long as I could” he chuckled and kissed the blushing cheek of his girlfriend. Y/N was still in a little bit of shock. This definitely wasn’t the way she wanted to announce their romance to the world, but she was revealed deep down. She could finally show her love and support freely. 

“Don’t worry, I’ll make sure Tom has many dates with you guys on Instagram” winked to the camera and refused to look at the comments. She was floating in happiness, she didn’t want the haters to ruin it for her. 

“I’m so damn lucky” Tom whispered and grabbed her face to give her a quick but sweet kiss on the lips. Nobody could stop him from posting about his girlfriend and what they had. He was finally able to show off, and make sure everyone saw her as she was. Not Tom Felton’s girlfriend, not the daughter of Y/F/N, but as Y/N Y/L/N. He was proud to have you, and planned to keep it that way till the rest of his life.

Deanoru + Fake Dating

Prompt fill requested by anon

~/~

It’s a terrible plan. Possibly the worst plan Karolina has ever come up with, even worse than the time she snuck a bottle of vodka from a party and almost fell off the roof because she was sure she could fly. Worse than agreeing to go on one date with Vaughn so she could explain to him that she was very much a lesbian. The only thing that could possibly make this any worse was Nico agreeing to go along with this plan. 

Which she did. She didn’t even hesitate. 

“Wait, really?” Karolina was staring at the shorter girl, dumbfounded. 

“Of course,” Nico shrugged one dark clad shoulder like it was no big deal for her to save Karolina’s skin by doing this massive favor. “You’re my best friend, Karrie. I’d do anything for you.” 

“I know that, I guess I just thought ‘pretending to date me so my mom will quit trying to set me up’ wasn’t one of those things.” Karolina felt her lips pull into a smile as Nico laughed. 

“Well, you couldn’t exactly say that you’re dating Molly, she’s too young, or Gert since you don’t have enough time with her. You and me together is at least plausible if not possible,” Nico explained this, as she did everything else, in a completely rational manner that somehow made this horrible idea sound good. “So what do we need to do?” 

“There’s a retreat, next weekend. Gib stuff mostly but only in the mornings and evenings. We’ll have the rest of the time to do whatever we want,” Karolina made a conscious effort to keep her hands as still as possible as she explained. “We leave Friday morning and we’ll be back Sunday afternoon. All expenses paid.” 

“A spa weekend,” Nico said thoughtfully. Karolina felt herself nodding. 

“For you anyway,” Karolina suddenly realized that she’d been standing up the entire time she’d been in Nico’s room and that that was unusual for her so she plopped down on the bed beside Nico, laying back so she wouldn’t have to look at Nico’s face while she spoke. “As a non-believer, you’ll only have to come to the morning services which is mostly just yoga and a prayer anyway.” 

“And what about the times out of service?” Nico asked as she laid back as well. 

“We can do whatever we want, swim, eat, sleep, as long as we stay on the grounds of the place we’re staying at.” Still keeping her eyes firmly on the ceiling, Karolina continued, “it’s okay if you don’t want to come.”

“Well, I’d be a crappy girlfriend if I didn’t,” Nico laughed. “Especially since you already told your mom that we’re together and that I’m going.” 

“Yeah, well, something could come up last minute. Maybe Amy will come down for the weekend.” 

“Like Amy would ever leave Stanford. She didn’t even come home for Christmas,” Nico rolled her eyes. “It’s alright, Karrie. I don’t mind going. Besides, we haven’t had a weekend for just the two of us in a while. It’ll be fun.” 

“Even the pretending to be my girlfriend part?” Karolina risked a glance at Nico and caught her expression. She looked forlorn and excited at the same time, like her heart was breaking at the same time that it healed. 

“Yes, even that. You’re a catch. Tall, gorgeous, fun, I’d be lucky to have a girl like you.” Uncharacteristically, Nico blushed. “So what would this include anyway? Hand holding? Hugging?” 

Karolina nodded, “A few kisses on the cheek, and we’ll be sharing a room. One bed.” 

“Oh no, I have to share with a personal space heater, how will I ever cope?” Nico laughed as Karolina nudged her. “That’s not anything we haven’t done before. We’ll just play it up a little. What could go wrong?” 

Karolina forced herself not to think of all the things that could go wrong, especially Karolina’s very much not imaginary desire to date Nico for real being exposed and losing Nico as a friend forever.

Leslia Dean looked almost surprised when Nico turned up Friday morning to load in the Gibb van with Karolina, wearing a white top with black pants instead of all black like she normally does. 

“Nico, how lovely of you to join us,” Leslie said as she gave the girl a brief hug. 

“Thank you for letting me come along,” Nico said politely, looking around for Karolina. 

“She’s over with Vaughn helping some older congregation members load up,” Leslie gestured over Nico’s shoulder and she turned to see Karolina and Vaughn offering kind smiles at the people dressed in white as they spoke to one another with teasing grins. Jealousy rose in Nico’s stomach at the sight but she stamped it down. Now was not the time to be jealous of her fake girlfriend’s real friend. “I’m sure she’d be happy to have you join her.” 

“I’ll do that. We’ll be riding in here?” Nico gestured to the van they stood beside. 

“Karolina’s bags are already in, I’m sure you know what they look like.” 

Nico nodded and leaned in to place her own bag next to Karolina’s on the back row of the van before nodding at Leslie and walking over to Karolina and Vaughn. 

“Nico,” Karolina called as she approached, smiling brightly. “I’m so glad you came.” 

“I promised I would,” Nico said, relaxing easily into the hug Karolina moved over to give her. Karolina left her arm wrapped around Nico’s shoulders when they parted so Nico left her’s around Karolina’s waist. 

“Vaughn, you remember my girlfriend Nico?” 

“I believe she was just a friend the last time we met,” Vaughn looked at the two of them curiously. “It is nice to see you again.” 

“You too,” Nico offered him a smile that she hoped seemed genuine. “And don’t worry about it, this is still fairly new to all of us.” 

“Right,” Nico had the feeling that Vaughn didn’t exactly believe them. “Well, we’re just about done here. I’ll let the two of you finish up.” Vaughn left without another word but did offer them a friendly wave. 

“It’s not too late to back out,” Karolina said, her nose bumping against Nico’s forehead. 

“Sorry Karrie, but you’re stuck with me,” Nico unconsciously squeezed Karolina around the waist and, on impulse, leaned up to kiss her cheek. “Let’s get to the van so we can pretend like we’re asleep and won’t have to talk to your mom.” 

Karolina laughed and led Nico back to their van, her cheeks tinged pink. 

The drive to the resort passed fairly quickly, Nico leaning her head against Karolina’s shoulder while they shared a pair of headphones, and soon enough they were hauling their bags up to the room they’d be sharing until Sunday morning. 

“Oh wow,” Nico’s voice was muffled by the pillows where she had planted herself on the bed. “This bed makes the whole trip worth it.” 

“Whatever you say,” Karolina said even as she climbed into the bed with Nico and laid beside her. Without thought, Nico drifted closer to her just as she always did when they cuddled up together. Karolina suddenly found herself laying on her side with Nico tucked into her chest. “Wanna take a nape before dinner?” 

Nico was already so close to sleep that she almost didn’t feel the way Karolina kissed her hair and held her just a little bit tighter than normal. Almost. 

~/~

The Saturday at the resort passed in a peaceful haze. Karolina and Nico were constantly together, linked at the hands or sharing the same lounge seat out by the pool. Nico didn’t even try to bother hiding her adoring looks at Karolina, telling herself that she was simply playing it up for the constant audience she and Karolina had in the form of Vaughn and Leslie. 

It wasn’t until Vaughn made a comment later, when Karolina had exited the pool, bent down slightly to kiss Nico’s temple and squeeze her hand and then scampered off to get drinks for both of them, that Nico realized how much she hadn’t been playing it up. 

“I almost didn’t believe it when I saw you two yesterday,” Vaughn said from his seat beside the one Nico and Karolina had been sharing on and off all day. “I knew you two were friends of course, but I didn’t see you being together like this. I’m happy I was wrong.” 

“What do you mean?” Nico asked curiously. 

“Karolina, she’s so much lighter around you. Brighter too, it’s like you light up something deep in her soul. And of course I don’t know you as well as I know her, but you seem different too. Like you can breathe a little easier when she’s beside you,” Vaughn shrugged slightly, bashful. “You can’t fake a love like that.” 

He was right, of course. Nico couldn’t fake the way she felt about Karolina. She’d never been faking, but she wasn’t ever sure if Karolina would return those feelings. Just because they both liked girls didn’t mean they both like each other. And maybe it was reckless and stupid of her to do, maybe it would destory everything when they got back home Sunday afternoon but Nico couldn’t let this opportunity pass. When Karolina returned to hand Nico her drink, Nico caught her wrist and gently pulled until Karolina leaned down so their faces were on the same level. Doing her best to make the action look as natural as possible, Nico placed a hand on Karolina’s swimsuit covered hip and pressed their lips together. 

Karolina made a small noise of surprise against her lips but there was no hesitance as she kissed her back. Vaughn made cooing sounds from beside them. Nico felt like she could fly, like she could live in that moment forever and never grow tired of it. 

“I’ll have to get you drinks more often if that’s the thanks I get,” Karolina teased when they parted. Nico rolled her eyes but settled easily into the curve of Karolina’s side as they lounged together, hoping the redness of her cheeks wouldn’t look like anything but a sunburn. 

~/~

“So, should we talk about what happened at the pool?” Karolina asked later that night, after the evening service which Nico had skipped in favor of having an existential crisis in their room. 

“If you want to,” Nico threw the towel she’d been using to dry her hair back into the bathroom and crawled into the bed, staying firmly on her own side. “I’m sorry if I overstepped.” 

“No,” Karolina’s answer came quicker than either of them expected. She cleared her throat. “I mean, no, I didn’t mind. I liked it, probably a little too much.” Karolina was sitting cross-legged on the bed, her gazing flickering between the covers on the bed and Nico’s face, lingering on her lips. “I just don’t want you to think you have to do that, y’know? My mom believes it, so does everyone else who’s told me how cute we look together. You don’t have to kiss me for show.” 

“I didn’t kiss you for show,” Nico admitted softly, so softly that for a moment Karolina wasn’t sure she’d heard her correctly. “I kissed you because I’ve wanted to do that since we were fifteen and I wasn’t sure I’d ever get another chance after this retreat.” 

“You’ve wanted that since we were fifteen?” Karolina was smiling, slow and teasing like Nico had just revealed a precious treasure. “I could’ve been kissing you for three years?” 

“It probably started before that but that’s the first time I remember wanting to-wait. You too?” Nico sat up in bed, dark eyes wide at the implications of Karolina’s words. “Why didn’t you say anything?” 

“I wasn’t sure if you felt the same! And I didn’t want to jeopardize our friendship if you didn’t feel the same. You’re my favorite person in the world Nico. I’d rather have you in my life as a friend than as not in my life at all.” Karolina was smiling again as she leaned forward slightly. “Why didn’t you say anything?” 

“At first, because I didn’t want to believe it. Compulsive heterosexuality and all that bullshit,” both girls cringed at the memory of Nico’s short lived relationship with Alex. “And then because I was scared to lose you.”

“We’re quite the pair, aren’t we?” Karolina shook her head ruefully. “You didn’t say anything because you didn’t want to lose me, I didn’t say anything because I didn’t want to lose you and the only thing we did lose is time that we could have spent together.” 

“Hindsight,” Nico shrugged. They shared a laugh and then fell silent again. “What do we do now that we’ve realized we’re both idiots?” 

“I say we make up for lost time,” Karolina leaned closer, slipping her fingers through Nico’s wet hair. “Afterall, we have three years worth of kisses to make up for.” 

Nico couldn’t think of a better idea and leaned in the rest of the way to kiss Karolina for the second time, slower, deeper than before.

In the morning, they walked out of their room hand in hand, smiling contentedly, with plans to go out to dinner as soon as they returned home. 

It was time for a fake relationship to become real.

Drinking Do’s and Don’t [Chapter 2/3] [Love on Ice series]

Summary: This would have been written for June’s @a-monthly-rumbelling non-smut prompt “drinking, karaoke, dancing, kissing, date” if I had gotten it in on time. Part of the Love on Ice series, wherein disgraced ex-pairs figure skater Gold is hired to coach ice princess Belle and her partner Gaston to the Olympics. If Gold and Belle don’t kill each other first.

AO3 Link

Due to her training, Belle didn’t often get the opportunity to drink. Her birthday party had been the exception. She remembered vividly how gutsy the champagne had made her. She’d felt no shame in stalking her coach in the secluded nook of the hallway or how effortlessly the flirtatious words had left her mouth. Despite her uncharacteristic boldness, she’d woke up the next morning hangover and regret free. Her feelings behind her suggestive actions had only been the truth, after all. Her work with Archie made verbalizing her thoughts and feelings while sober easier now. Yet these particular feelings about Gold still needed some lubrication to process.  

She reached across the table and wrestled a beer pitcher to her side of the table and filled a plastic tumbler to the brim. She didn’t know if you were supposed to sip beer or not but the mouthful she took that made her cheeks puff out was flat and strong and gross. She thought about going to the bar and ordering something fruity but the bitter taste matched her sour mood, so she drank.

The libations weren’t for her own feelings, she decided. She was clear about those. She’d even worked them through with Archie because Gaston was sick of hearing the ticker tape of “he loves me, he loves me not” constantly running through her head. Archie warned her against using the L-word, but this wasn’t a girlhood crush either. It was Gold’s feelings, or lack thereof, that drove her to drink. She wasn’t imagining the spark between them. Yet he snuffed it out at every opportunity. She didn’t think it was out of disinterest. More like fear. She got it, a skater and coach embarking on a relationship was dangerous, least of all because of the strain it could put on their working relationship. It was also a little taboo because of their age difference, but she wasn’t a minor by any means.  

Usually abstinent, the beer quickly went to her head so she studied him openly down the row of tables, not caring if anyone, including him, caught her. He was sitting among the coaches and he didn’t look as miserable as she felt. He wasn’t the life of the party, but he chatted with the group and even laughed a few times. He never laughs for me . Belle took another deep gulp. She noticed he didn’t touch the light colored beer in front of him, just fingered the glass. He was from Scotland, he probably hated light beer.  

Could it be he was uncertain of her feelings? Is that why he wasn’t making a move, or at least meeting her partway? She thought she���d done everything imaginable, include throw herself at him at her birthday party. Had he thought she was drunk and didn’t know what she was saying? What more could she do, show up to his hotel room wearing nothing but a bow? It was an idea and, yes, she wanted him that way but not only that way. She also wanted to be able to talk to him like a human being. Belle suddenly missed practice. If she was on the ice, she’d be too focused to obsess like this.

It wasn’t long before he made an excuse to go to the bar. Her suspicions were confirmed, she knew wasn’t a beer guy. He walked directly past her without once glancing her way, leaned across the bar and spoke low to the bartender, who nodded and turned away for a moment. He returned with a short glass filled with something brown. Instead of returning to the table, he settled onto a stool and gazed up at the television over the bar that was playing the week’s soccer highlights, not in a hurry to return to his raucous table.

It was the ignoring her that did it. If he’d shot her even one of those half smiles he’d given her when he first entered the bar she could have lasted the rest of the night on that memory alone. But no, he was back to pretending she didn’t exist outside a rink.

Well, the alcohol inside her decided, if he wasn’t going to come to her, she’d go to him. She was allowed to talk to her own coach in public, there was no rule against that. It wouldn’t look weird to anyone. In fact, it would be weird if she didn’t say anything to him.

She marched up to the bar, but hesitated behind him. She didn’t know what his reaction would be. Go away little girl? Would he say something cold and unfeeling like he normally did? Pretend they’d never skated together? Make an excuse to leave? The bottle the bartender had poured from looked expensive so he wouldn’t be in a hurry to leave his drink before he’d finished it. Now was her moment. She boosted herself onto the stool next to him.

He acted surprised to see her there, like he’d forgotten she was even in the bar. She could go back to the hotel right now and spend the night feeling sorry for herself for that reaction alone, but she charged ahead anyway. Her thoughts were taking an extra few seconds to reach her mouth and he struggled to fill the silence.

“Nice job on the ice today,” he told her.  

Belle was unimpressed. She knew she was a good skater. Everyone told her. Been telling her that her entire life. The gold medal sitting on top of her suitcase proved that. She didn’t want to talk about stupid skating.

“I know,” she replied brusquely.

He blinked at her blunt response.  

Is this what a date with him would feel like? Is this as close as she’d ever get, this stilted conversation? Was she wrong and their connection was limited only to the ice?

“I didn’t know if you were coming out or not,” she tried again. “I stopped by your room but nobody answered.”

“I was at the gym.”

So that explained the strength she’d felt in his arms when he’d tossed her on the ice. That also partly explained how he spent his time when he wasn’t standing at the edge of the rink glaring at her.

He swiveled in his stool and looked over his shoulder at the tables of skaters and coaches. People had dispersed around the room and weren’t paying a bit of attention to them. Ella was sloppy drunk across across the table, laughing uproariously at something Ariel and Eric’s couch had said. Gaston was over in the corner playing darts with a group of other skaters.

Was he worried about someone getting the wrong, or better yet right, idea about them? Why should they suspect anything? Who, besides Gaston, would think she was sitting next to him because she wanted to date her coach?

“You don’t you play with your friends?” he asked, but not unkindly. He wasn’t trying to get rid of her so much as giving her an out, which was laughable. He’d watched her professionally for months. He should know by now just how tenacious she could be when she set her mind to something.  

“I’m where I want to be,” she assured him. When they’d first met he’d accused her of being a stuck up, prissy ice princess. She used that tone to her advantage now. She wanted what she wanted and she wanted it now. They were alone. Outside a rink. Finally . Just because this wasn’t a traditional date, didn’t mean it couldn’t turn into one. They weren’t a traditional couple anyway.

She caught a hint of a smile, as if he was amused with her answer, but he hid it behind his glass as he took another drink. She want to get another one out of him. One he couldn’t hide. She used the edge of bar to spin herself towards him and squared her shoulders. “We’re getting a room later,” she announced.

The amber liquid stuck in his throat. It bubbled up out of his mouth and back into the glass. He coughed so hard a stranger leaned across an empty stool and clapped him on the back until Gold held up a hand to signal he was fine.

“A what?” he sputtered. His panicked eyes sped around the room, clocking every skater and coach within hearing distance.  

“A karaoke room,” she clarified. “They have them upstairs to rent. We’re all going in on one.”

The alarm drained from him, but he didn’t look any more thrilled. In his competition days, he’d been the consummate performer. But the idea of Gold singing “Billie Jean” in front of crowd of skaters made her giggle.

“Planning on singing a duet with LeGume?” his voice was hoarse from coughing and it came out like a growl. There was that familiar sneer, the bitterness that tinged the end of all his sentences. Before, she wasn’t able to see past his tone. She’d been too annoyed at him for barking at her in practice. Maybe it was her work with Archie that made her see through him now. If he thought she’d be scared off, he was mistaken. She was done playing around with him. If she didn’t get a straight answer from him about his feelings one way or another she’d burst.

“I don’t want Gaston,” she told him. “You know I don’t,” she added quietly, some of the wind gone from her sails.  

That dumbed in into silence. Better that than the wrong impression. Belle played with the hem of her skirt. Maybe it was time to slink off the bar stool and back to the hotel. Gold beckoned the bartender over for a fresh drink. Belle was steadying herself for as graceful an exit as possible when Gold pointed his thumb at her. “Pink Passion.”

The bartender nodded and started taking a number of bottles off the wall. It took her a second to realize what he’d done. He’d ordered for her. Her heart soared. The confidence with which he requested her drink was terribly attractive. It was like a date, not that she’d been on many. She kind of missed the whole holding hands in a movie theater and going for milkshakes kind of dating. She’d trained and competed her way right through it, with nothing but trophies to mark her pre-teen and teen years. Now she was thrown in the deep end with grown-up dating. She wanted it. Desperately. But it was like learning how to ride a bike without training wheels first. She was constantly plagued with nervousness and uncertainty.

The glass the bartender placed in front of her was Barbie pink with a lemon twist garnish. “It’s almost too pretty to drink!” She grinned down at it for a moment before leaning over and sipping the rim. It tasted like peach and some sort of berry and lemon. It was refreshing and delicious and took that disgusting beer taste right out of her mouth. She closed her eyes and hummed in approval. Now she understood why people drank. This was good.

She studied his profile while he stared into his drink. His long hair obscured most of his face and his ever present scruffy beard concealed a great deal of the rest. She supposed he thought it made him inscrutable. “Want him or not, he’s your ticket to an Olympic gold medal,” he told her, bringing them back to her skating again .  

“Funny, I thought that’s what you were for,” she retorted. If he insisted on talking about skating, it was going to be about his, not hers. She fingered the rim of her glass. “Is that all your partner was to you, a ticket?” That was low of her, she knew he had been married to Milah, but she bristled at Gaston, her closest friend, being referred to as nothing more than a tool.

He chuckled ruefully. “That is all I was to her,” he lifted his glass, “in the end.” He brought the drink to his lips.

His vulnerability, even if it was hidden behind bitterness, cooled her annoyance. “What happened?” she probed gently.  

“You saw it.” It was a statement, not a question. He suspected she’d watched his disastrous last Olympic performance. Last performance period if YouTube was anything to go by.

“I don’t believe it.” It was true. The skater she’d been with on the ice was not the same one she’d seen in the grainy footage. Belle knew firsthand how a skate could go from bad to worse, but what she’d seen had been something else entirely.

He smiled, but despondently. It was possible he was the saddest man she’d ever met. “Oh, believe it, dearie.” The sympathy she was feeling must have shone in her eyes. His elbow dug into the bar when he pointed at her. “Don’t,” he ground out.

Belle quickly schooled her features. She got it, he didn’t want anyone pitying him. Belle had experienced no worse feeling than stepping off the ice after a bad skate and seeing all those compassionate, pained faces. He stared at her for a long time to make sure she’d wiped any and all compassion off her face. Belle struggled. She was a naturally expressive person so she could only manage so much.

He decided something then, like a man standing on the edge of the Golden Gate Bridge who’d committed to jumping. “She told me as we were about to step onto the ice that she was leaving me.” He muffled any further words with his glass.

Belle tried to imagine herself getting terrible, life altering news right before a competition. Then he had to immediately skate with his soon to be ex-wife no less! What a bitch. He was better off without her as far as she was concerned. “You never thought of getting a new partner?”

He shook his head. “When I commit to something, I commit to it. I retired that day. I only put skates back on recently.”

It took her a minute to process the implication of his words. Twelve years. He hadn’t laced up a pair of skates in twelve years. All this time he’d stood on the sidelines while she and Gaston flew around the ice free as birds. Huh. “No wonder you’ve had a stick up your ass.”

He almost choked on his drink again.

“How could you not skate?” Belle demanded, completely riled up about the entire travesty. Belle sometimes dreamed of not competing, definitely taking a few weeks off, but never quitting skating cold turkey. “How could you let her take that away from you? Didn’t you miss it?”

He shook his head, “Honestly, no. I had a son to raise on my own.” She had heard of this son in New York. These simple words did nothing, she was sure, to illustrate the struggles of single parenthood.

“But you could have found another skating partner,” she argued. She knew their age gap made it impossible they could have ever have been partners, but Belle liked the daydream of having the ability to be his partner on and off the ice. “We’re good together,” she offered shyly as an example. “We don’t even need choreography.” She was aware it sounded like she was suggesting they also wouldn’t need choreography for something else as well. That they’d be good in bed together. But, thanks to the Pink Passion, Belle realized she meant the statement both ways. By the narrowing of his dark eyes and the tick of his jaw, she thought he might have caught her double entendre. Belle leaned forward on her stool. She heard the squeak of his bar chair as he shifted his weight but she didn’t dare break their eye contact.

“Belle, c’mon!”

Belle blinked hard, jumping in her seat. A group of skaters and coaches stood at the foot of the stairs under the blinking karaoke sign. They waved her over excitedly.

Belle’s heart fell. She knew, without even looking at him, that the spell had been broken. Wherever their conversation had been going, the others had effectively thrown a bucket of ice water on it. She slid off her stool and moved to follow the group disappearing up the steps. A couple steps away she looked over her shoulder at Gold, slowly sipping his drink. He was alone, like always. Even in a group he stood apart somehow. She didn’t care what kind of spin he put on it or walls he put up. He was lonely. She bit her lip, catching his gaze and letting her eyes slide from his, down to his scuffed brown boots and back up again. “Aren’t you coming?”

Gentle (Bad Boy!Jimin)

Plot: #13. “What are you looking at-Oh. My. God, You like him/her!” + #30. “You’re blushing” + #66. “I know it doesn’t seem like it, but I’m going to take care of you.” + #87. “I’ll keep you safe.” with bad boy!Jimin

Word Count: 1037

A/N: s o this is probably one of the longest scenarios I’ve written in ages, hopefully you guys like it, it’s a leg i t request, I didn’t leave out any prompts, it’s the same AU, it’s an actual request so the link for this is bad boy!Jimin (here) with a h in t of father!Jimin (all of the father related posts are here)

It started when you were sixteen. You walked into a classroom and saw him, not knowing how many adventures you’d be going on with the boy in the back of the classroom. Looking back on it now, you’d have told yourself that that boy would make you laugh harder than anyone else, would change your life completely and would be the biggest pain in your ass.

You’d been placed into a group of four with him, for a project none of you truly cared about. He would go on to do all of the work the group needed him to do but he never made it easy to get the work. He seemed to enjoy teasing you about it, holding the papers behind his back and asking you random questions no one knew the answers to off the top of their heads.

“How many stripes are on Waldo’s shirt?”

“How many episodes of the Simpsons are there in total?”

“What’s the average size of an ant colony?”

It was irritating but you couldn’t help but want to laugh at some of the things he came up. You never showed him that you were amused by the exchanges that happened every few weeks but looking back, you could tell he knew. Jimin had always loved making you laugh, even if he had to annoy you a bit to do it. You couldn’t help but look forward to seeing him in class, to seeing what the two of you would bicker about that day. And it was beginning to become obvious, as you watched Jimin walk out of the library to get something to drink.

“What are you looking at-Oh. My. God, You like him!” one of your group mates gasped, looking at you with a knowing smile.

“No I don’t!” you immediately dismissed.

“You’re blushing.” your second group mate pointed out, the both of them grinning at you.

And of course, they were right. A month after that incident, you and Jimin had been back in that library, kissing each other as if your lives depended on it. Two years later, you two had graduated together, had stayed together. But that didn’t mean there weren’t bumps along the road.

“You know, my parents are gonna get suspicious.” you brought up, watching Jimin step out of your shower and wrap a towel around his hips. “They’ve noticed the whole ‘two showers a day,’ thing. I don’t think they’ll buy my sudden need for superior cleanliness.”

“Remind me to teach you how to lie because that’s a terrible excuse.”

“And you could do better?”

He only gave you that heart-fluttering smile, leaning down to press a gentle kiss to your lips. Jimin wasn’t known for his gentleness, wasn’t known for sweet nothings but you knew him, beyond the facade he put on for the public. He played along with his image, played the role of the bad boy who skipped classes and never missed a good party. He had the look down, the black hair slicked back, the leather jacket, the tattoos covering his skin. But the reality was he was the kindest, sweetest man you’d ever met. The two of you bickered constantly but it was always in a flirty way, every comeback delivered with a smile, followed by a kiss. But you had to remember that Jimin had a reputation on nights like the night he first told you he loved you.

He had climbed in through your window, sighing when you’d immediately run over and began to look him over, seeing the scrapes on his knuckles and the scratch on his lip.

“They went for Jungkook, I couldn’t just stand there.” he defended as you sat him down and rushed for the first aid kit. “Assholes, all of them. Came out of nowhere.”

“Are you okay? Really okay?” you questioned, beginning to clean the wounds on his knuckles.

“I’m fine.”

You hated seeing him like this. It was rare that he would get in fights but whenever it happened, it brought tears to your eyes. You knew Jimin had a temper but you also knew he wasn’t a physical person. He was good at controlling his anger, until someone else landed the first blow. You knew he was protective over the people he cared about and it didn’t surprise you whenever he told you that the other people had gone for one of his friends and he’d stepped in to help defend them but it didn’t make the situation any easier.

Not until you felt his lips on your forehead, drawing your attention up from his hands to his eyes. “I love you. I’m sorry for worrying you.”

It had been nearly ten years since that night. A lot had changed since then. It had been the last fight Jimin had gotten into, thankfully. He had calmed down about going out, had started putting more focus into what he wanted for his life. Did he want to major in art? In music? Did he have one passion he wanted to pursue over the others? Did he want to travel young or wait until he was settled?

One thing he knew was that he wanted to marry you. It had been a small wedding, just family and the closest friends. A year after the wedding, the two of you welcomed your daughter into the world, weighing a perfect weight, with the most perfect eyes and the most perfect everything. You had always told yourself nothing was perfect but you were wrong. She was perfect.

“I know it doesn’t seem like it, but I’m going to take care of you.” he whispered to her, holding her in his arms.

“What do you mean? You’ll be the best father in the world.”

“I’ve made a lot of mistakes in the past.”

“And you’ve made up for them. You proved you were more than you let on, you found out what you wanted and you went for it. And we are so lucky to have you in our lives.” 

He smiled over at you before pressing a kiss to her forehead, for what must’ve been the hundredth time since her birth. “I’ll keep you safe. Both of you.”

Life and Death (Part 2)

Warnings: Character death

Featuring my dc comics OC: Avery/Sprite

Emma @call-me-emma 

Lily @guns-n-lilies

PROMPT:

Avery has left the world and the people she had to leave behind. Now it’s time for them to mourn.

Emma stood in the Wayne Manor, with several others. They knew time was becoming shorter and shorter over the course of time and after being called by Bruce and Alfred, today maybe the day.

The day when Avery would die.

Emma gripped her arms together, barely noticing Dick rubbing her back or the reassuring words. Nor did she notice Lily, one of her closest friends and sister, slip away from the masses.

All the people who were gathered here were people that cared for Avery as either as a family or friend. Bruce and Alfred decided that by gathering everyone together, they could give Avery one last big visit.

Before the time came.

Emma hated this.

She hated how unfair this was.

When Emma first met Avery, it was when Wally introduced her. She was a bit unsure meeting the girl but when they started to talk, Emma could feel herself relax and was instantly attached to the girl. Emma had noticed how weak Avery was but there weren’t enough signs that led to the event today.

Through thick and thin, Avery was always there.

When Avery revealed she was dying soon, Emma and some other people did their best to stop Avery’s death a little bit longer.

Just a little bit longer.

When Bruce wasn’t fighting and protecting Gotham, he was down in the Cave looking for a solution to this. Emma also helped Bruce in finding a cure. The worse Avery became, the more desperate Emma became as well.

She read every medical journal and test she could get her hands on and when that wasn’t enough, Emma was tempted to go to Lex Luthor, Avery’s other ‘uncle’, for help or even…go back to King’s.

Hell, even Emma offered her genes to save Avery.

But that wouldn’t work.

It was too late.

There was nothing they could do to stop Avery’s impending death.

Yet every visit Emma made, Avery would just smile and talk like she wasn’t going to die. Dreams of the future. Not Avery’s but Emma’s. What her life with Dick would be like and the work that Emma would do for the world.

How proud Avery was of Emma and being her friend and sister.

The visits always ended in tears.

Emma glanced around the room and focused on the people. Other than the Wayne family, there was also Avery’s brothers with Avery’s best friend since childhood: Alex. They all were standing side by side, their faces emotionless.

Some would’ve interpreted their faces as uncaring and Emma grew angry at that, but it was quenched instantly when she saw their misty eyes. Alex hugged himself and had his head down to his knees, curling into himself.

The brothers knew longer what their youngest sibling’s fate when Avery was first born.

They knew this time was coming.

Alex had once told them when he learned of his abilities, he tried to heal Avery. However, he couldn’t heal someone who was never healthy. It would always reset and he lived with Avery’s fate for years.

Emma tore her eyes and away and noted everyone. There was the Team Avery joined, consisting of those like M’gann, Conner, Artemis, and their leader Kaldur; who was not here (who probably slipped away to see Avery).

There was also Clark or the infamous Superman. Wonder Woman was also there with J’onn, Barry, and Arthur.

Lois, Barbara, Mera, and Iris had gathered together, talking to each other in low whispers and helped out Alfred.

Bruce was silent for the most part, only speaking when others asked him but his mind was elsewhere. Jason and Damian were off by themselves while Tim was talking with Conner.

Emma knew there were more people in this room and the other but right now, she couldn’t focus at all.

Dick stood beside Emma, their hands joined together.

The clock ticked by and then-

M’gann gasped as Conner and Clark widened their eyes. Alex snapped his head up and his violet eyes widened, with tears falling down. J’onn hung his head and Emma…she cried and screamed.

The link, one that she and Avery shared together, disappeared. She couldn’t feel Avery’s dying heartbeat or her presence in her mind.

Tears started to run free and so did her legs. Emma pushed past everyone and ran up the stairs, with several others behind her.

Her legs ran as fast as she could and the door that led to Avery grew closer. Emma slammed open the door and the machine that monitored Avery’s heartbeat went flat.

It cut through the roaring in her ears as Emma screamed, “AVERY!”

Kaldur was on top of Avery, pressing his hands together onto Avery’s heart. Electricity running through his arms as he performed CPR.

Emma rushed forward and tried to help out, using the electricity within her, the ability that was granted from Avery’s genes, to revive her.

“Please, Avery! Don’t leave us! Come on, wake up! Don’t die!” cried Emma.

Lily was right beside her, her hands covering her eyes and cried. Sounds of wails being muffled.

The whole thing was a blur. Emma remembered being torn away from Avery and she tried to reach her.

This had to be some messed up nightmare or an illusion. This wasn’t happening-

She couldn’t lose her sister. Not again.

Emma remembered collapsing and Dick holding onto her. She saw Jason going to hug and comfort Lily.

Kaldur had fallen beside Avery’s bed, holding onto her lifeless hand to his face. Aquaman and Mera taking by his side and comforting him.

There were tears everywhere and they all watched as Bruce go up to Avery’s body. He leant down and he brushed the hair away from her face, before Bruce kissed the top of her head; muttering under his breath.

“Sleep well Avery.”

One by one, everyone gathered around and mourned in that moment. Then Adrien, Avery’s eldest brother, walked up and placed the white cloth over his sister’s face; saying goodbye.

When Adrien stood, no one saw his face but they heard his voice.

“Thank you for taking care of our sister.”

  They didn’t cremate her immediately. Avery’s death was still fresh on their mind and it lingered within them. It may have been easier to move forward if they did but they wanted to mourn.

So they mourned.

Bruce worked to get Avery’s funeral ready in respect for the girl. Others helped here and there while some stayed behind with Avery. Some decided to stay together alone and grief with each other.

Dr. Leslie Thompkins came by and signed Avery’s death certificate. She also sent her condolences and sent her final farewells to the girl, who the doctor knew as a child.

Four days had passed since Avery had departed from the world.

During those four days, Avery was placed into a coffin. People came by to see her one more time and get ready for the funeral. They all said their final words and saw Avery one last time before they went to send their condolences to Bruce and his children, Avery’s brothers, Alex, and Kaldur.

Alex and Kaldur stood together and merely accepted their words of condolences with little or no words.

Lily and Emma helped as best as they could for their partners and for their departed sister.

Emma stood over the coffin. She stared at the occupant of said coffin, studying her face and searing into her memory for what may be the final time. They had done some re-touching onto Avery’s face, to make her look like she normally did.

Before she began to die.

Emma almost got rid of the work onto Avery’s face but she didn’t know if she was strong enough to see the hollowed version of the girl.

Lily walked into the room and saw Emma standing over Avery, in which the Sauveterre girl sighed.

If Emma wasn’t resting, she was always near Avery. The older girl wouldn’t leave unless someone made her too; although only a select few could.

Lily walked forwards and she saw Emma turn back, to see who the person was. When the latter saw it was Lily, she returned her eyes to the coffin. As Lily got closer, she slowly got a better look of her friend.

Avery lay in her traditional clothes, with flowers swallowing her entire body. With her peaceful face, it almost looked like Avery was almost sleeping.

But if that were the case, she would’ve woken up.

“Avery loved flowers. If she could see the flowers the others left her, she would be telling us what all of the meaning behind all of them” said Lily with a hint of melancholy.

Lily remembered when Jason proposed to her on top of the Eiffel Tower. With the help of her family and her dearest friends, they surprised her by appearing at her ballet performance in France and helped Jason propose to her.

Jason had given her a bouquet of different flowers that were individually picked for special reasons. All stood for meanings of the love Jason had for Lily and how much she meant to him.

When Lily questioned him about the knowledge of the flowers, he confessed that he had help from Avery; who helped him pick those flowers.

It made more sense when Lily visited Avery in the Wayne Greenhouse; planting and taking care of different plants that were blooming with life.

Lily could remember the time when they all had a tea party in the green house. There was a special blend of tea that Avery created herself, presented in a beautiful teapot and cups.

Avery was sipping her tea as Lily admired Avery’s work when she questioned why she did Gardening and her love of flowers.

Avery’s green eyes stared into Lily’s own eyes when she spoke:

“Maybe it’s because life and death doesn’t apply to them like we do. Unlike animals or humans, they constantly die but always come back to life. They’re so versatile and full of wonder, each with their purpose.”

Avery didn’t speak any more beyond that, her face becoming sober and her eyes becoming distant.

At the time, Lily wasn’t aware of Avery’s condition. So the words she spoke then didn’t make much sense.

Now? Lily knew but it was too late. Thinking back, there were so many times Avery touched on her life but her words were shrouded.

Lily was just as affected as Emma was. However, the Sauveterre girl kept pressing forward for Avery’s sake. She had to take care of Bruce and the others in place of Avery. Support them and being there for them.

Lily raised her hand and took out one, lone white lily.

Emma watched Lily place the Lily onto Avery’s chest, before the two supported each other and cried for their friend.

The next day was the day Avery would be cremated.

Emma stood next to Avery, waiting for those attending to arrive. Bruce and the others were making last minute preparations and everyone was slowly arriving with solemn looks. Alex was also with her but they never exchanged much words before. No sense they would talk now.

Emma glanced at him and he was wearing a black suit. His long raven hair was now shortened, showing more of his pale skin and violet eyes. He stood silently and Emma resumed facing forwards.

It was kind of awkward but Emma didn’t know if talking would help the situation.

“I was here before,” said Alex, shocking Emma.

The girl looked at him but he didn’t look at her. “Excuse me?” asked Emma carefully.

Alex look at Emma, through the corner of his eyes. “When my mother was murdered. Avery was with me during that time and she held my hand when I cried for my mother. Avery was there when my mother was murdered by Vandal Savage and helped save me. Avery’s been with me for as long as I can remember.”

Alex looked and placed a hand on Avery’s coffin. That’s when Emma saw how tired he was. He had a bitter smile on his lips and she saw how chapped they were. She looked at his eyes and saw his puffy violet eyes were turning misty and then she noticed the dark bags under his eyes.

They were there before but…they were even more noticeable now.

“You and Avery were close” noted Emma, her eyes becoming downcast.

Alex responded by speaking, “As close as we could be but…Avery is like that. She was always close yet so far away…maybe more than ever.”

Emma didn’t say anything as she watched Alex place his head on top of his hands that were gripping the coffin.

Before Emma thought of consoling Alex, there was a sudden BAM! along with a rumble that shook the building.

Emma and Alex took hold while keeping Avery still. They all brought their body close to the ground to prevent being toppled over and waited for the tremor to stop.

When it had subsided, Emma and Alex got up as they smelt smoke.

Widening their eyes, the two rushed out to see there was a fire going on. There were also people who were injured and some people trying to put out the fire.

Instinct kicked in as Alex and Emma went to work. Alex took care of the injured using his abilities while Emma helped put out the fire. It wasn’t bad as it could’ve been but Alex was helping the people out of the building.  As they were getting everyone out, the comms in Alex’s and Emma’s ear went off.

“Lioness, Alex. Where are you?” asked Batman.

“We’re still in the building. There was a fire and people were injured-“ reported Emma but Batman cut her off.

“Get them out and suit up. There are several attacks happening in the city and the villains broke out of Arkham Asylum. We need as many people on hand right now” ordered Batman.

“But what about Avery?” questioned Emma, as she removed her outer clothes to reveal her Lioness outfit.

“I have someone outside ready to look after her until everything is resolved.”

“Yes sir” reported Emma before she nodded to Alex. He nodded back before he escorted the rest of everyone out of the building.

Emma went back to get Avery but as she got closer, she noticed the door to the room she was in was jarred slightly open.

Didn’t she close it? Or did they accidentally left it open when they rushed out?

With her guard up, Emma slowly pushed the door open. She widened her eyes when she saw a figure bent over Avery’s body.

Hearing the door open, the figure turned and Emma growled.

“Ra’s al Ghul.”

Ra’s looked at Emma and his eyes narrowed a fraction. “I would’ve thought you’d be out in the midst of the chaos right now, Emma” said Ra’s.

“Why are you here?” interrogated Emma but Ra’s wasn’t fazed.

“I believe you are smart enough to figure that out,” said Ra’s. Emma saw his hand resting on top of Avery’s coffin, the lid already open.

Emma opened her mouth to retort but her mind clicked. “You’re behind this” she stated.

“Of course. I couldn’t just walk in and retrieve my niece from everyone” said Ra’s before he started to bend down. “Not with the Detective around to stop me.”

Emma got ready to attack and was instantly met with a harsh look from Ra’s.

“I will be taking Avery with or without your help” stated Ra’s.

Emma felt the fight in her die down before her muscles went lax. “You’re going to revive her.”

Ra’s bent down and easily picked up the limp body of Avery, cradling her head close to his shoulder. Emma could only focus on Ra’s hand that gently cupped Avery’s head. Her long raven hair falling down that curtained the face.

“That is correct” said Ra’s before he moved to leave the room. “Will you stop me and let Avery remain dead? Or will you step aside and see her breath again?”

Emma’s entire body shook. She faintly remembered Avery’s instruction to be cremated immediately for she had accepted her fate and wanted to stay with that fate.

But the thoughts of Avery laughing again. Her smiles that would reassure Emma, her voice…her constant presence….

Ra’s looked at Emma from the corner of his eye but Emma made no move to stop him. Too caught up with her memories of Avery and the prospect of her being alive.  The assassin moved and brushed past Emma, carrying Avery’s body in his arms.

The demon’s head left the cremation centre and was followed by his guards, they all went to the rendezvous point before they would begin to revive Avery.

“You are very well loved, aren’t you Avery?” questioned Ra’s, glancing at Avery. There was no response as expected from the dead but Ra’s focused on the peaceful face Avery had.

Ra’s carried Avery with one hand, her weight light enough for him to be able to, before he activated his communicator. “I have retrieved Avery, I trust you will play your part?”

Emma’s knees gave way as she slid onto the floor, crying again. What had she done? She knew that Avery didn’t want to come back alive but the Pit could do it.

But that was why Avery wanted to be cremated.

Emma snapped out of her trance and stood up, her legs knocking into each other.

“Lioness, where are you?!” commed in Nightwing, chaos leaking through.

Dick, I made a mistake” confessed Emma as she ran out of the building. She had ot find them, have to stop Ra’s-

“Emma? What’s wrong?” said Nightwing worriedly.

“Ra’s-“

“Ra’s al Ghul was here?” Nightwing said, widening his eyes. He faintly heard Jason and Damian yelling “What?” in the background.

“H-he...planned the attacks right now. He was just in Avery’s room and he has her. I’m sorry Dick, I knew Avery didn’t want this but Ra’s-“ Emma choked, “He said he could bring her back to alive and I wanted to be selfish but that’s what Avery didn’t want.”

Emma ran and ran, slowly catching up. She could see them, see just needed to-

“Emma, wait! Don’t go after him alone!” yelled Nightwing.

“I can’t! He has Avery and it’s my fault!” cried Emma before she saw him.

They hadn’t left. There was still time-

Nightwing’s warnings continued in her ear, before Emma became irritated. She reached up and ripped the comm from her ear before tossing it to the side. She was so close-

She was going to use her telekinesis, knock the guards down and grab Avery. She had to take Avery away from Ra’s and stop him. Not what Avery wanted, she needed to-

“Ra’s!” roared Emma as she saw Ra’s with Avery in his arms. There was two other figures and Emma instantly recognized them. Why was Lex Luthor and Mercy there?

The assassin turned and the curtain of Avery’s hair parted. Emma stopped and gasped, time stopping as she saw Avery’s face.

Her eyes were slightly open and Emma could see Avery’s green eyes. “Avery-“ she called out and she thought she had seen Avery move her mouth.

However, that never happened.

Ra’s rushed him and Avery into the helicopter that would take them away. Guns were fired and Emma instinctively dodged them away. The helicopter roared to life, about to leave with its passengers.

“Stop!” ordered Emma as she was about to bring down the helicopter.

Emma jumped away when Mercy shot a blast from her arm and Luthor yelled something to Ra’s. However, the blades that were chopping the air drowned out the words. Emma growled and wanted to stay closer but Mercy kept coming.

As Emma was about to push forwards, she saw the grenades falling down.

Emma widened her eyes as she saw the helicopter move into the air, farther and farther away. Her mind just processed the grenades falling and she moved but her reaction was too slow.

The grenades went off and sent a series of explosions off, blinding surrounding area.

Emma felt her body go light before she floated for a moment. Then all of a sudden, she was tumbling on the ground.

The girl grunted but then heard a hiss but not from her. Emma raised her head and saw Wally not too far from her.

“Wally?” she called out confused. What was he doing here?

“Yeah, yeah I’m fine”  Wally groaned as the two got onto their feet. “Dick couldn’t get here in time so he commed me. I was closer so I rushed over. Good thing too or you would’ve been hurt bad.”

There was a solemn tone in his voice and Emma looked at him. His face was serious and Emma knew that they couldn’t lose anyone. For everyone’s sake.

Emma then looked and saw a small crater where she just stood. There were flash bombs with the grenades. When the flash went off, Emma wouldn’t be able to see where she ran and would’ve been caught in the actual blast-

Everything rushed back and Emma gasped.

“Avery!” she yelled before she ran back to the place she was once at. She glanced up and the helicopter was gone.

Luthor was gone.

Ra’s was gone.

Avery was gone.

Again.

Emma felt fresh, hot tears leaking through her eyes before she screamed towards the sky.

Practices that used to work in the past are never again powerful and things you may have overlooked up until this point have increased more significance.

Website optimization is changing constantly. From time to time Google thinks of new rules intending to improve the nature of their indexed lists and your activity as an SEO, entrepreneur, blogger or Digital Marketer, is to remain in sync with these changes.

You should move toward this regularly changing condition as an extraordinary chance to improve your SEO practices and make your site increasingly valuable and easy to use and not as a risk to your internet advertising endeavors.

How about we find in more subtleties 5 of the most proficient current SEO rehearses that can (nearly) ensure your prosperity.

#1 – Having a responsive site that is portable well disposed of isn't sufficient

In the previous half-year everyone is discussing versatile. Google included versatile agreeableness as a positioning element in their calculations and insights in a steady progression show that clients are presently portably situated.

They are utilizing their mobiles to look on Google, shop on the web, participate in interpersonal organizations and do different undertakings that were commonly performed in the work area 5 years prior.

This emotional change effectively prompts the end that you have to have a versatile well-disposed site and the main thing that comes at the top of the priority list is a responsive site. While this is a decent start, it's insufficient.

A responsive site is one that adjusts the UI relying upon the goals of the gadget however the issue is that having a similar work area content appeared on versatile (even without scrollbars or need to zoom in and out) isn't the best answer for an extremely extraordinary client experience.

Most responsive made subjects are not enhanced for portable; they simply attempt to show all the work area content on a versatile screen. What is the arrangement and how is this identified with present-day SEO?

An elective arrangement proposed by many are to utilize a totally unique arrangement of pages for the portable clients (something like SEO EXPERT) yet this isn't the best practice.

There are numerous focal points of the responsive plan that you can't disregard, so a responsive structure is as yet the best arrangement yet with a few changes so as to improve the client experience on portable.

For instance:

You can make style changes with the goal that catches and marks on versatile are greater and simpler to click

Shroud pointless work area components (like colossal footers) or pictures that are not important to appear on portable

Make recordings littler in size and length (or even shroud them)

Cripple popups and different components (side boxes) that take an excess of room on a versatile screen

Execute a one-page checkout on the off the chance that you are selling items

Make it simple for individuals to call you (include snap and call catches)

How is this identified with SEO?

All the above things will make your portable site quicker and easier to understand and that will positively affect your SEO. Google is as of now not checking for every one of these components in their calculations yet soon enough, they will do and you need to be prepared. The quantity of individuals utilizing Google from versatile is enormous to such an extent that you just can't stand to lose rankings due to ease of use issues.

#2 – local SEO improvements are more significant now than any other time in recent memory

'Close to me' look has multiplied the most recent few months. Clients while in a hurry are utilizing their mobiles to discover items to purchase and places to go.

This implies regardless of whether you are not selling anything on the web, despite everything you must be found for nearby searches. Individuals need to discover your contact subtleties, opening times and headings to your physical store.

As an unadulterated online business you additionally need to provide food to look through that have the area in their questions. On the off chance that you are selling administrations online despite everything you need to be discovered when somebody looks for 'Website optimization benefits in Toronto' so neighborhood SEO may have something to offer to everybody.

Your advanced SEO system needs to represent these new improvements in client conduct and neglecting to do so might not negatively affect your general rankings however you may lose clients to rivalry, which is much more dreadful.

#3 – Structured Data is the best approach

Web crawlers need to manage a huge amount of data in an assortment of organizations. At the point when they slither the web they have such huge numbers of information to 'comprehend' from each and every page they visit and so as to make their activity simpler, they have consented to set of diagrams.

Composition is only an approach to depict the substance that is accessible on a page in an increasingly organized manner. It's a specialized assignment since it includes including bits of code in the HTML of a page, however, the general outcome is that it makes the page increasingly meaningful to web crawlers.

There are diagrams for a wide range of substance, from articles to surveys, items available to be purchased, breadcrumb menus and significantly more. Google is utilizing mappings for their insight chart, rich scraps in list items, ad words shopping efforts and ad words expansions.

You can see the rundown of as of now upheld compositions by Google here.

A cutting edge SEO system needs to use all the accessible diagrams appropriate for the specific site for more introductions to web crawlers.

Make your very own site survey, inspect your HTML code, and test your pages with the Google testing apparatus and on the off chance that you notice that your composition portrayal isn't exact; this is one of the main zones that you have to address for better SEO.

#4 – You can't do everything alone, you need great SEO instruments

Like web indexes, we as SEO's or computerized advertisers have a great deal of data to investigate. We have to check traffic levels, positioning positions, approaching connections, online life results and a lot of different measurements that assume a key job in our procedure.

On the off chance that you have a little site perhaps this is anything but difficult to do yet in the event that you have large sites (or oversee more than one sites) at that point attempting to do this sort of checking physically will be excessively troublesome.

The business has perceived this need and that is the reason there are various SEO instruments in the market that the point in helping you to remain in charge of the circumstance.

Having said that, it doesn't imply that great apparatuses are just the paid ones. There are various valuable devices that are free however fundamental for the cutting edge SEO proficient. Here is a fast rundown:

Google Search Console (in the past known as Google Webmaster Tools) – screen your site's exhibition in Google search

Bing Webmaster instruments – screen your website's' exhibition in Bing Google Analytics – Traffic measurements and the sky is the limit from there Google catchphrase device – Keyword look into Feely – to remain educated regarding new advancements in SEO by buying into your famous SEO web journals.

Obviously, there are additionally paid devices like:

SEM RUSH – extraordinary for rivalry examination, watchword look into, catchphrase rankings, page rankings, PPC the board, online networking following and some more.

It's an instrument I use consistently to deal with my client's sites (and my own) thus a long way from every one of the apparatuses I tried, it has the best blend of highlights and cost. I additionally composed a hands-on audit about serums on my other blog, on the off chance that you need more subtleties.

It's a unique apparatus with new highlights included constantly that makes it considerably increasingly valuable.

Long Tail Pro – When it comes to watchword look into, you can do it physically utilizing the Google catchphrase instrument, Google patterns, Google and Bing proposals and so on however on the off chance that you need to spare time and have everything in one spot you can utilize apparatuses like long tail professional.

It's not free however the professional rendition makes some one-memories off cost which makes it reasonable for a wide range of clients.

Most importantly there are such a significant number of things a cutting edge SEO proficient needs to do every day and if there are ways or devices that can spare your time and make you productive in your work, you need to utilize them. You need to invest your important energy in things that issue and identify with your general procedure and not on undertakings that can be completed by apparatuses.

#5 – Modern SEO has likewise lead to the present day third party referencing rehearses

In the close past, SEO was unequivocally connected with external link establishment. While we as a whole know now that cutting edge SEO isn't just about getting joins yet it's considerably more than that, joins are still a piece of the Google positioning the calculation is as yet required for high rankings (something like SEO EXPERT).

What has changed?

A lot of things; above all else the term 'external link establishment' is continuously being supplanted with 'relationship building'. You never again interface with others so as to get a connection indicating your site, yet you associate with different sites or bloggers to set up a business association with them.

At the point when you connect with others either by email or web-based life advertising, you are not doing it so as to increase a connection yet you need to introduce your case and disclose to them how your substance can assist them with improving the experience of their clients.

In the event that something that you composed or have on your site will support their peruses, they will gladly connection to you and the advantages are shared. You get a legitimate 'vote of trust' and they make the experience of their client’s better and greater quality.

That is the possibility of normal third party referencing and whatever else that goes past these limits can push you into genuine difficulty.

As I would like to think and experience, it is a finished exercise in futility to connect with individuals asking for joins yet what you ought to do rather is assemble your notoriety through web-based life and your site's substance and afterward, attempt to feature your mastery by adding to sites that are greater and more trusted than yours.

That is the cutting edge meaning of visitor blogging which is a lot harder to accomplish yet with significantly more advantages both as far as SEO and notoriety building.
