Genevieve Sterling

For those who don't know me, I can get a bit crazy- have to get my way, yeah, 24 hours a day because I'm hot like that. I heard you say I'm not the baddest- bitch you lied. Why can't they back up off me? Why can't they let me live? I'm gonna do it my way, take that for just what it is.

PM: What kind of a “thing” or item? Once upon a time is how fairytales start. When you get here, sit in my lap.

PM: It was...Complicated. Because of me. I’m not going to lie to you Mx. I’m one hell of a fucked up person. The OG brat of my entire class. I’m crazy, I’m stupid, and I’m reckless. Welcome to what you got yourself into. Maybe I’m broken. You and I were...Incredible. I loved you. But I had...I was also involved with someone else. Another Dominant. Someone from my past, whom I’ve known for a very, very long time. And in the end...I chased him. But he claimed someone else. Then she left him, high and dry, when the Rebellion came and claims dissolved. He was arrested. Released but...He’s here now. We had- I guess we’d rekindled things, when his ex-claim showed back up. And he...Well, he told me that this time around  he wants to claim us both. And that...I can’t even explain with real words how that made me feel. Because after all of that, after she left him, abandoned him, he still wanted her. And I don’t know. I guess it’s just like...I felt inferior. Like just me wasn’t good enough. And to be honest with you, I’m not exactly a poly kind of person. It’s cool if others are, but I just don’t feel comfortable. I need...A lot. I’m a lot. I know that. And I just don’t think I could handle a situation like that. Anyway. His choice is made. Has been for a long while now. Is it? Yes, Mx. Thank you.

dominantgabriel​:

PM: What is our history? And what outcome do you want? You sound like you want to worry about it.

PM: That’s...A loaded question Mx. I’ll have to get back to you on that too. To be able to rewind things would be a good place to start. I wouldn’t say I want to worry about it. More like I just am. I’ve missed you so much. I don’t even fucking think I can hold myself together, much less trying to...What? Make you fall for me again? Fuck if I remember what the hell I did last time. I don’t know what the hell brought you to me. You and I...Once upon a time, one might have called us a “thing”. An item. However you want to put it. 

[gigisubsterling]

dominantgabriel​:

PM: Why does it not matter? You sound like you want me to read it. You could tell me what it says.

PM: I just don’t know what would happen if you had or did. So maybe it’s not that it doesn’t matter, so much as I don’t know what the outcome would be, so maybe I shouldn’t worry about it. I don’t- I don’t really think I know how. It just...Mentioned your return Mx. And alluded to our history. 

[gigisubsterling]

dominantgabriel​:

PM: Should I?

PM: If you’d like. I know you aren’t generally into things like that. It mentioned you. Me. Us. I was just curious as to whether or not you had seen it. I guess it doesn’t really matter. 

[gigisubsterling]

dominantgabriel​:

PM: Yes, Genevieve?

PM: Do you...Did you happen to read the Gossip Blog’s post?

[gigisubsterling]

dominantgabriel​:

PM: You are okay. It’s fine. You may come back. I will open the door for you. Did you get plenty of air? I had assumed there was air in here as well, but I am more than willing to hear about the air out there.

PM: Thank you for understanding Mx. And thank you for opening the door. I don’t know if I got what I was looking for, but I did get air. There...Is air in there, yes Mx. I just needed...Outside air, I guess. I...Mx?

[dominantgabriel]

[PM from Genevieve Sterling]: Mx, I was wondering if I could please come and stay with you tonight?

PM: I am not entirely sure when or why you left in the first place. I know I did not tell you that you had to.

[gigisubsterling]

PM: I know, Mx. I’m sorry. I should have said something. I just needed...I don’t know what I needed. Air, I guess. I just wanted to make sure it was okay that I came back.

For the life of me, I’ll never understand why everyone gets off on acting like I’m not also in the band with my brother. It’s chill though. Had myself a grand old time performing again. Thanks to those who did come out to support. 

@tgaimportant​

I didn’t forget. I didn’t. I love you, and you rocked it. You always do, Theo. You’re fucking talented as hell.

Somehow, the way that Genevieve responded to him was just what Gabriel needed in the moment, it clicked in all of the right ways. Ways that even he didn’t fully understand, and had never understood. He watched her for a while, simply taking in her movements and mannerisms. When it came to social cues, he usually missed out on everything, but in this one on one moment he didn’t feel totally out of depth. He was pretty sure he understood how she felt, they were both enjoying themselves, he was sure. She asked about him, which was something people didn’t often do. If they asked about him, especially now, it was about the accident and his lack of memory. The surprise showed on his face, just for a moment. “It was alright, it was quiet. I was given accommodations with appropriate space, and I was given assistance when I got here so that I didn’t have to tax myself with my bags.” There was a small moment of silence, then he added without any lead up. “You can decline service now, as I’ve been told. But you didn’t.”

Genevieve’s eyes hadn’t left Gabriel’s since the moment she’d entered their suite. Under any other circumstance, and when it came to anyone else, she would have definitely mouthed off, especially given how she’d been feeling recently. Gabriel was different, though, and always had been. So, she remained where she was, kneeling, remaining silent until they gave further instruction. It was because of this that GiGi recognized the surprise on Gabriel’s face once they’d processed what she said. It was a look she was familiar with, one she’d seen cross the Dominant’s face more than once during their time together. Her heart skipped a beat as she chewed the insde of her lip, stomach still knotting under the weight of all that was happening. “That’s good, Mx. I’m glad you were taken care of, appropriately.” Her head dropped in the silence, mind racing to land on something, anything to say. The Dominant’s voice broke through however, drawing her gaze right back to them. “You’re right. We can. I can. But I didn’t. You knew that already, you said it. So, you’re right, Mx. And...I won’t.” GiGi held her breath as she debated what she should say next, or whether she should say anything at all. The situation was one she had no clue how to navigate, leaving her mind and body spinning. Part of her wanted to leap into their arms, wrapping herself around them, bringing herself and hopefully Gabriel back to a place which had felt like home for so long. Still, she understood their injury, at least in part, and wasn’t sure that doing so would have been appropriate. The advantage was that she knew Gabriel. The disadvantage was, they didn’t know her. And, how to proceed with that, Genevieve wasn’t sure.

I might be a petty bitch but at least people know my gripes instead of posting vague ass tik toks. You wanna talk about it or what? 

I’d beg to differ, but I’m in no mood to even try. The TikToks had nothing to do with anything, other than the sound. I’ve said that several times now. But, who’s nitpicking? No, I don’t. 

[gigisubsterling]

partyboyparker​:

Riiiiiiiiiight. Because that’s a mature way to handle a gripe you have with someone. Personally I mean giving someone a chance to correct their behavior would be better way to handle that but hey, you do you. 

Riiiiiiiiiiight, because you’re definitely one who has a leg to stand on when it comes to talking about mature ways to handle things. But hey, you do you. 

[gigisubsterling]

partyboyparker​:

 Is this vague-posting or is there something you actually can’t deal with right now? 

Both. I’m vaguely referencing a statement I can’t deal with. 

[gigisubsterling]

subjulesdavis​:

My dude. How long have you been listening to this shit?

I wasn’t listening to anything. The video was posted because the sound playing behind the TikToks perfectly summed up my mood at the time. To be honest, it still does.

Gabriel walked through the room and made his way to Genevieve, his pace casual. When he reached her, he lifted a hand to run through her hair but before his fingers finished carding through he curled and yanked. “Come,” he commanded, already walking towards the couch with her hair in his hand. It wasn’t malicious, it was protocol. They reached the couch and he lowered her down to her knees physically, taking a seat with her between his knees. “Hello.”

@gigisubsterling​

Submitting to someone wasn’t something Genevieve had done willingly in quite some time- technically since before the incident, but definitely not since then. She’d been feeling weak, sick, exhausted, but all of that paled in comparison to the loneliness and heartbreak she’d been feeling. Ever since her conversation with Nikolai, she’d been feeling as though she got punched in the gut, repetitively. And now, Gabriel was back. Gabriel, whom she’d always had such a soft spot for, such feelings for- feelings she hadn’t ever truly allowed herself to explore. The duality between Gabriel and Nikolai hadn’t ever been lost on Gen, but was something she’d successfully managed to push to the back of her mind. She couldn’t even begin to have a starting point for where things were, knowing about the Dominant’s head injury, knowing that they didn’t remember her, or their past, or the history that she had always held so dear. Still, she’d shown up for them, as she always had, her sense of loyalty and care kicking in fully the moment she saw their face on the dash. Gabriel’s fingers sliding so easily through her hair drew a shiver from her, immediately. Everything she’d been needing and missing so desperately, in conjunction with her own memories of the hundreds of times this had happened before flooded her mind, and she couldn’t help but to sigh audibly. The jerk of her hair brought a gasp, and her body followed his commands easily, with no hesitation and no fuss. Even if Gabriel didn’t remember her, she remembered them- remembered how they liked things, how they needed things to be, how they operated, and what they expected. Gen allowed herself to be lowered, settling quickly before turning large eyes upward to gaze at the Dominant. “Hello, Mx. Thank you for seeing me tonight. Are you...How was your trip?” Despite what everythig within her wanted to say, to do, she understood that after everything Gabriel had been through, she needed to take things slow. To hang back, and to test the waters as they were before jumping entirely into the deep end. The last thing she wanted to do was overwhelm the other, or to misstep as she was so known for doing, and ruin things before they’d even begun again.

[gigisubsterling]

Yeah...I think that’ll just about do it for me. I can’t watch this bullshit anymore.  @tgaimportant​

[gigisubsterling]

dominantgabriel​:

gigisubsterling​:

I can see why.

I do. Then I’ll have to say it again. And again. I do not presume that anyone here has any idea what they are talking about, I will take my own opinion instead. I gave you faith? What did I do? Yes, here I am. I have been here for approximately thirteen replies. Cease that senseless negativity, it’s insubordinate when I have told you otherwise. You are a good girl, Genevieve. You. Helpful. You are correct, I never had marbles. Though I do know where I could get some. Since you are laying on your brother’s couch and you have been doing so for three full weeks, and you seem to lack an understanding of how helpful you can be, you will come to my suite now and help my settle in. Quickly. I will open my door and you will walk in, take your shoes off at the door, and kneel in front of my bags an await further instruction. Do you understand?

So is everything else, it seems. 

Why? Why take the time do to that? Honestly, I couldn’t agree more. You just do. I can’t really put my finger on it. I’ll work on that though. I-. Oh. Wow. You did show up. I’ll take your word for it, for the time being. Thanks. Not even 24 hours in, and you’re already ordering me. ...Alright. Whatever. I’ll be there. Kneeling. You still haven’t told me why.

[gigisubsterling]

dominantgabriel​:

Interesting.

Yes, it is. I do, and I did say that. You are correct, I have suffered a head injury, as you put it. You are charming as well, I said so. Just like I said that I was going to praise you, and I am the Dominant so I will be making the decisions on that, not you. Good girl. You have been helpful. What are you doing?

I get that a lot. 

So you remember that part, huh? Interesting. Yeah, you said that. Doesn’t mean I’m going to believe it. Talk to just about any person in this piece, they’ll tell you otherwise. Thanks though. For giving me a little bit of...Faith. There you are, that big, bad Dominant. Go ahead, be my guest. I’m not. Me? Helpful? Now I know you’ve lost all your marbles. No, I’m not saying you literally had marbles to begin with. I’m laying on my brother’s couch. Where I’ve been for something like 3 weeks. Why? What are you doing?
