“Have I mentioned today how lucky I am to be in love with you?”

She hummed pleasantly, her eyes bright. “Mm, I don’t think you have. You have my interest though. Care to go on?” 

[goldleashtigers]

“Someone as prestigious like you thinks little ole me is great? It means a lot, Charlie.” Her tone was playful, but she meant it. It was great knowing someone thought she was special no matter what she did.

“Because I’m famous and stuff? Believe me, fame is nothing compared to you. If I ever had to choose for some reason-- it’s not even a choice. I may love attention but fame has caused the worst things that have ever happened to me. And you-- you’ve been the opposite of that. Having you makes me the luckiest piece of trash in the world.”

[goldleashtigers]

             Alison made a face at that last remark. “Remind me to never get into a car with him then.” She held onto his hand tightly as he led her to his room, breaking away only to plop onto his bed. “I don’t know. I guess it’s because it’s a different flavor. It’s unique. Also, I think he tones it down for me. I think he’s scared he’ll burn my tongue off.” she laughed, pulling the covers over herself.

          “Seriously, don’t. I hate his driving. It stresses me out. He’s just so chill about everything, he doesn’t even notice that he’s a horrible driver. Maybe it’s just in his DNA, though-- like I said, Indians can’t drive for some reason. I’m glad he tones it down for you-- he certainly doesn’t for me.” He grabbed the remote off the night stand, handing it to her with one hand while putting his other arm around her.

[goldleashtigers]

         “Well, you know me. Can’t say no to a home cooked meal. Maybe that’s the French in me talking though.” She opened her eyes, looking up at the other. There was a slight dreaminess in her eyes. “Do you mind if we go to your room? I think there’s a new episode of Cake Wars tonight on Food Network we can watch together.” she suggested with a childish smile.

          “Who am I to deny you of Cake Wars? Let’s go,” he said, standing up and offering her his hand once he’d discarded his suit jacket on a chair. “Jay always makes spicy food, though. The Indian in my can barely handle that, I’m surprised you like it. He’s more Indian than me. More Hindu, better at speaking Hindi, better at eating spicy food. And he’s a horrible driver-- that’s an Indian thing too.”

“Have I mentioned today how lucky I am to be in love with you?”

She hummed pleasantly, her eyes bright. “Mm, I don’t think you have. You have my interest though. Care to go on?” 

[ribbons-skirts-and-scars]

goldleashtigers:

          “Well… I’m mentioning it. ‘Cause you’re great.” What was it about a loving heart that turned his eloquence to mush?

             She thought it was cute how Charlie could talk up a storm on live television yet stumble when it was just the two of them. “Oh? Well that’s flattering. Especially coming from someone like you.” 

[goldleashtigers]

          “What’s that supposed to mean?”

[theleaderofthebadguyssang]

[goldleashtigers]

        “I’m really glad Jay is a sweetie. If he was anything like the others, waking up every morning to him in the kitchen would be pretty awkward. But that’s not the case so it’s all good. He makes me breakfast sometimes, and I buy him supplies for the breakfast. I think that’s a fair trade.” She closed her eyes, repositioning herself a bit. “I don’t think you’d like a famous rich girl. I think you two would clash. That, or you two would overload the media, and that’s not good either. Maybe it’s a good thing you fell for someone like me.” She smiled a bit at her own remark, thinking back to how casual their meeting was.

          “I never wanted a famous rich girl, even back when I used to date them. I only ever wanted you-- even before I met you and I just didn’t know it yet.” He leaned over and kissed her cheek. “And I’m glad he finally has someone to eat his cooking since I usually won’t. He used to just cook way too much food and leave it in the fridge in containers and eventually it would get all nasty and we’d have to throw it out.”

“Well, with you two living in the guest house, there is a degree of isolation between you and the others.” Alison traced the buttons on Charlie’s shirt, moving from one button to the next as she thought. “I don’t know what to think of the others. I can’t tell if I should be scared of them or not. Or if they like me or just tolerate me because I don’t have dirt on me that could get you and the family into trouble.”

          “Yeah-- but I didn’t live in the guest house all my life. I lived in the house-house until I was fifteen and they still ignored me then-- I was the only accident kid, you know. My family doesn’t dislike you, I can tell you that-- they’d be at your throat every day if they did. My mom wants me to date a famous rich girl with an important name, and Mia and Amanda don’t care, and my dad doesn’t care. but everyone tolerates you, at least. Not that any of them bothered to get to know you to form an opinion. But that doesn’t matter. My only family member who’s opinion I care about is my brother, anyway. And he likes you.”

[ribbons-skirts-and-scars]

“Have I mentioned today how lucky I am to be in love with you?”

She hummed pleasantly, her eyes bright. “Mm, I don’t think you have. You have my interest though. Care to go on?” 

[goldleashtigers]

          “Well... I’m mentioning it. ‘Cause you’re great.” What was it about a loving heart that turned his eloquence to mush?

[goldleashtigers]

“You sounded like such a cute duckling, Charlie.” she teased, nuzzling his chest. “You have a backbone now though. You’re doing your own thing now for the most part. Gotten too smart for Jay now, hm?” Alison always liked hearing stories about Charlie and his family. It made them seem normal, more relatable. Considering the fact the Ryder family’s status was so much higher than her own family’s, it was nice to know that they had silly family moments too that were unscripted.

          “Yeah, now I just do what the TV show people tell me to do,” he said with a chuckle. “And what my mom tells me to do. You know those are the only conversations I’ve ever even had with my mom? One of us telling the other a piece of information, or her telling me what to do. And not even that much from my dad. Or Mia or Amanda, for that matter.” His tone was still light, even though he was talking about things that kind of sucked. “I guess it’s good me and my brother get along, at least.”

“You could never back down, you never learned to take your time.” “He looked at me like I was stupid, I’m not stupid.” “Talk less. Smile more. Don’t let them know what you’re against or what you’re for.” “Fools who run their mouth off wind up dead.” “Who’s the best? C'est moi!” “It’s hard to have intercourse over four sets of corsets.” “If you stand for nothing, what’ll you fall for?” “I will lay down my life if it sets us free.” “I imagine death so much it feels just like a memory.” “I’m laughin’ in the face of casualties and sorrow, for the first time, I’m thinkin past tomorrow.” “I’m lookin for a mind at work.” “Excuse me, miss, I know it’s not funny, but your perfume smells like your daddy’s got money.” “You want a revolution? I want a revelation.” “Look around at how lucky we are to be alive right now.” “Chaos and bloodshed are not a solution.” “It’s hard to listen to you with a straight face.” “Chaos and bloodshed already haunt us, honestly you shouldn’t even talk.” “You say the price of my love’s not a price that you’re willing to pay.” “You’ll be back. Soon you’ll see. You’ll remember you belong to me.” “When you’re gone I’ll go mad, so don’t throw away this thing we had.” “When push comes to shove, I will kill your friends and family to remind you of my love.” “Close the door on your way out.” “Have I done something wrong?” “Dying is easy, living is harder.” “But what do we have in common?” “You walked in and my heart went ‘Boom’!” “I’m about to change your life.” “My love for you is never in doubt.” “I just might regret that night for the rest of my days.” “I’ll never forget the first time I saw your face.” “When you said “Hi” I forgot my dang name, set my heart aflame, ev'ry part aflame.“ "You’re like me. I’m never satisfied.” “He’s a bit of a flirt, but I’m ‘a give it a chance.” “I’m a girl in a world in which my only job is to marry rich.” “From what I hear, you’ve made yourself indispensable.” “Well, well, I head you’ve got someone special on the side.” “I will never understand you.” “Love doesn’t discriminate between the sinners and the saints.” “I am the one thing in life I can control.” “If there’s a reason I’m still alive when so many have died, then I’m willing to wait for it.” “Stay alive 'til this horror show is past.” “I’m a general. Whee!!!!” “Yeah. He’s not the choice I would have gone with.” “Don’t do a thing. History will prove him wrong.” “I can’t disobey direct orders.” “Pick a place to die where it’s high and dry.” “Pray that hell or heaven lets you in.” “Should have shot him in the mouth. That would’ve shut him up.” “Watch your tone. I’m not a maiden in need of defending, I am grown.” “My name’s been through a lot, I can take it.” “The fact that you’re alive is a miracle.” “I don’t pretend to know the challenges you’re facing.” “If you could let me inside your heart…” “I’m never gonna stop until I make 'em drop and burn 'em up and scatter their remains.” “You have no control who lives, who dies, who tells your story.” “History has it’s eyes on you.” “So what happens if we win?” “If this is the end of me, at least I have a friend with me.” “Oceans rise. Empires fall. It’s much harder when it’s all your call.” “I swear that I’ll be around for you.” “Why do you assume you’re the smartest in the room?” “Why do you write like you’re running out of time?” “Yo, who the f is this?” “What are you waiting for? What do you stall for?” “If I could grant you peace of mind, would that be enough?” “They are asking me to lead. I am doing the best I can.”

[goldleashtigers]

        “You know, if you offend people, they aren’t going to listen to your advice.” she noted, giggling at the thought of Jay’s reaction to Charlie presenting to him a long list of flaws. She found herself laughing harder at Charlie’s story. “You two have such a strange dynamic. Growing up together sure must have been something.” She peered into her pretzel bag, noticing that there were just a few left. She took one out, offering it to the other. “Did Jay ever mess with your sisters? Or was it just you?”

     “Mia is scary! Would you want to cross her?” He asked, laughing. “And Amanda is too smart, nobody can pull one over on her. I was the dumb little kid who wouldn’t fight back. I was a very pliable kid, if you can believe it. I would do anything Jay told me to do. He took advantage of that a lot-- he was a sly little motherfucker. I thought he was so cool, though-- when I was little I would just follow him around and try to be just like him. Even though he’s a nerd and an ass.”

not to be dramatic but if I don’t get kissed soon i might die wtf

[goldleashtigers]

     After Charlie settled down, Alison shifted over and curled herself up against him, resting against him. It was a perfect cuddling position, and she missed being able to just sit down with him and talk.

   “Yesterday? Hm. I was at work for most of the day. An intern tried to buy me lunch, but I had to decline. Then he went to ask someone else out immediately afterwards while I was still in the room. This morning I asked Jay to make me another smoothie. He almost forgot the lid on the blender again.”

          “That sounds messy... my brother is an idiot.” He laughed, sliding his arm around her. Sitting down on the comfortable couch made him realize that he was kind of tired. “He makes good smoothies, though. He’s just so focused on little details he forgets to do things that are actually pretty important, like putting the lid on the blender. He also sometimes leaves the house with his shirt on inside out, but that’s a different problem. He dresses so casually. That is also a problem. I should make a list of all the dumb things about him and give it to him so he can improve. One time when we were little he put flour on my face and my hands while I was sleeping and tried to convince me I turned into a white person,” he rambled.

[goldleashtigers]

          He sat next to her, unbuttoning his suit jacket so it wouldn’t bunch up weird. “I don’t like hiding things from you either.” It was the truth-- it was just maybe a little bit sneaky, since he did in fact hide things from her all the damn time. That didn’t mean he liked doing it, though. “What were you up to yesterday? And this morning while I was at the meeting?”
