Send 🌿 to accidentally get caught under the mistletoe with my muse. (continued from x.)

“I’m lucky you’re feeling the Christmas spirit,” he teased. He wanted nothing more than to feel the warmth of her lips on his. As she stepped closer to him Joe smiled back at her, fixating his eyes on her soft lips. He reached a hand out and caressed her cheek, softly pulling her in even closer. Their faces were so close in that moment that he could smell the sweet fragrance of her perfume.

He felt his stomach rumble as he sat down; it was too easy to forget about hunger being this drunk. For a moment, he didn’t know what else to say, he poured his heart out to her, but Olive had hardly acknowledged it. He just sat quietly as she prepared the leftover meal. Joe hoped that getting on her good side would eventually result in forgiveness, but also realized that he may have had far too much of that whiskey. Fuck. The microwave beeped loudly and he cleared his throat before breaking the silence.

“Well,” Joe began. “How have you been?” He took a bite of the steaming vegetables and it was the best leftovers he had in a long time. Joe definitely wasn’t as good a cook as Olive and he was grateful to be eating something so good. “This is amazing.”

Dreams and Nightmares

Send “Dreams and Nightmares” to read a page from my Muse’s Dream Log, a page describing in great detail something they have dreamt about in the past nights.

Saturday, December 3rd

Olive and I were picnicking in the most serene clearing in the middle of the forest. Our spread was full of the most decadent cheeses, the freshest breads, the most delectable jams, and the most extravagant French wine. I marveled at her radiant skin as I slipped a daisy in her beautiful, blonde hair.

Once we finished our charcuterie feast, we frolicked in the luscious grass with a pack of deer. Olive had the ability to communicate with the animals and they directed us to a pond with the clearest water imaginable. We held hands as we dipped our feet into the water and watched the sunset together for what felt like hours. It was beautiful.
