Happy Tuesday, sunflowerkru!

We've apparently skipped spring altogether this year, at least for a while. The sun is shining, the cherry is blooming and it's been 27 C for the past few days. It's a little insane and probably not a good sign climate-wise but I can't help but be happy about it. I missed the sun.

Hope you guys are doing well! 💜

When her plane landed, she met Helly, who was biting her nails pacing the waiting area of the airport. "Thank you so much," Hel whispered as they embraced. "I just- I don't know what to do anymore-" "It's okay," Bestie reassured her. "I'm here now, okay? I was always gonna come back." When Criston came round in the limo to pick them up, he asked, "To the house, Helaena?" "Actually, Criston...take me to wherever you took Nora and Aeg tonight." Bestie said. Cole was silent for a moment before nodding. "They're not at that club uptown," Hel sighed, telling Cole. "They're at a party in Flea Bottom." "Flea Bottom?" Criston looked at them in the review mirror. "Seven Hells, Alicent's gonna kill me." The drive there felt longer than it was, and Cole parked the limo and got out with them. They walked with Criston, who warded off any untoward eyes- they had to act quickly, since it was a rare sighting to see Helaena Targaryen in Flea Bottom, and press would show up soon. They arrived at a seedy nightclub with motorcycles parked outside. "This place looks like trouble," Criston grumbled, as he walked with them inside. "Helly stay with him and look," Bestie said. "I'll look for them over there." "Splitting up isn't wise," Cole told her. "I wouldn't want- that is, we wouldn't want something happening to you." "I've seen worse things back home, I'll be fine." She reassured him. Cole relented and helped Helaena look through the crowded room, the room smelled like booze, sweat and it pulsed with music. Bestie pushed her way through, her heart breaking as she saw Aeg sprawled over a couch down in the back. "Aeg?" She ran over to him. His eyes were dilated, he smelled like booze and she really, really didn't wanna know what the white powder on his nose was. "youleftme-" Aegon slurred. "I-I-" "I know" She pushed his hair from his face. "I'm back now, okay? I'm staying, but we need to get you and Nora out of here." He slumped against her, and she managed to get him off the couch as she helped him walk. "Nora!" She heard Hel's distressed voice. She looked over to see where Hel and Criston had found Nora close by, she was doing a line of coke. She didn't realise things were so bad...and where the hell was Aemond?

Criston ran over to Nora, catching her as she stumbled to stand. "Dammit, kiddo," He murmured, his worry evident- he'd practically helped Alicent raise these kids, and this hurt to see more than he realised. Damn Viserys, for fucking up these kids so much. "Criston?" She spoke in a dazed voice, as he picked her up properly. "It's me, kiddo. I'm here, let's get you home, okay? I got you." He spoke in an uncharacteristically soft tone. When they got them into the car, Aegon and Nora were passed out in the backseat as Cole drove back to the estate. "I had no idea-" Bestie said quietly to Helaena. "Where's Aemond?" Helaena sighed. "He...he tried, with them, but they kept getting into fights, and-" Tears brimmed in her eyes, and bestie held her. "Don't worry, Helly." She kissed her temple. "They'll be okay, I promise."

BLESS THEM!!

I think you know I'm falling in love with you. But the trick is, when I fall. Your not there to catch me.

I want to forget the bad thoughts, so that I’m only filled with the good. 

With every pill, I feel myself lose grip of reality a little more.

 Remember a little less.

I need to forget it all.

To forget it all - 

I’ll take it all

• YOU LEFT ME •

[still-watersrndeep-blog]

I am trying really hard to stop thinking about you but I just can’t. I still hear your voice inside my head, I still see your eyes and your smile and the way you looked at me, I still feel your arms wrapped around me as you fell asleep and I still feel your hand on my cheek and your lips on mine and I still feel your fingers running down my body and I still hear you whispering my name and it fucking destroys me

How am I supposed to forget you?

I am breaking apart

[eeemeraldmoon-blog]

... and then you left. 

[youleftme-clarke]

So, uh, anyone still alive out there?

How we end each other.

♀️I know your weakness.

♂️ And I know yours.

[thoughtsinthearlymorning]

My chest hurts.

It skips beats and aches, almost as if I’m going to die.

My skin pales and I clutch my chest.

I’m sweating and wondering if I’m going to die. But no.

You walked out the door, and my heart broke.
