LuisAlvarado: First real outing since getting my sling and cast off and I get to play with some penguins. Shoutout to emmxchase for pulling some strings and making this possible. #wcw #onthepenguinobviously #myfriendsarebetterthanyours

[luis-alvaradorp]

I'll get it if you need it, I'll search if you don't see it, You're thirsty, I'll be rain, You get hurt, I'll take your pain. I know you don't believe it, But I said it and I still mean it, When you heard what I told you, When you get worried I'll be your soldier. (x)

“Eh, that’s just because I’ve been standing in front the AC the last twenty minutes,” she joked back, laughing softly under her breath as they walked together. It was frustrating that things seemed so normal and good on the outside, when nothing felt like it used to. Finding the right words were hard now, and that had never been something she had been concerned with before, not with Luis. “Hm?” She looked up when he spoke, having to rewind in her head to register what he said exactly. “—oh, uh, yes - that sounds perfect. Nothing beats the view from there.”

Finding a table was easy mostly because he had been to the beach bar so often and the owner was basically his restaurant best friend. He settled back into his chair easily, his bad arm resting on the table as he looked over the menu even though he knew exactly what he wanted. Luis glanced at her and licked his lips nervously as he tried to force a small smile. “I um...I miss this..us..being around you.” He met her eyes and bit his lip. “I know things haven’t been the same in a while..and I just..I’m sorry, I feel like I’ve really messed up and I don’t know how to fix it.”

“Oh, hush. I’m playing my strengths, I was bilingual by the time I was 5, and still couldn’t say your name, Kiko,” she stressed the nickname, laughing at the thought of her inability to say Joaquin properly. “Yeah, well, you’re not looking too down on your luck either. Of the ones I’m still in contact with, they’re good…. I just talked to my dad the other day. He’s moving out to Maine with his girlfriend. My younger half-sister just learned how to drive so we’re all pretty concerned. How’s yours?”

He rolled her eyes and laughed loudly. “My god, I haven’t heard that nickname in so long. The only other person who calls me that is my mother and my sister when she’s angry at me.” He nodded along with her words and thought about the family he had known when he was younger. “Girlfriend? Well look at that. They’re good, everyone is good. I mean, you know shit happens but we’re all still standing for the most part.”

brooklyn-c-monroe:

“i mean it though, I’ve just been so busy, I guess I lost track of time.” She said, making a slight face at her own forgetfulness that quickly changed into a smile when he told her he ws doing better. “I’m glad to hear that.” She replied, fighting off the blush that crept onto her face when he pecked her cheek. “Thank you, Luis—especially since I’m sweating my ass off in this weather.” She laughed a little, trying to shake the nervousness. “I’m good though, thank you.”

“You look like you barely sweat,” he joked as he walked with her out of the shop, shoulders brushing as they moved along the boardwalk. He stayed quiet for a little bit as they walked, just taking in the day. He knew that things were still a little off with them and he truly had no idea how to deal with it all seeing as his head was all over the place. “So uh, what are you in the mood for? Want to get a nice outside table at the beach club?”

[luis-alvaradorp]

brooklyn-c-monroe:

“Has it been so long already?” She asked and looked up with a careful smile. “I’m sorry— I meant to stop by. Lunch sounds good though. I’ll just put this away and then I’m ready.” She stored a couple of folders and binders and then turned to Luis. “How are you, by the way? You look…more healed than last time I saw you.”

“Nah I’m just messing with you.” He smiled softly and adjusted the strap on his sling. “Yeah, I’m healing so that’s good and I’m walking a lot more so I’m doing good. How about you, gorgeous?” He took her in, never able to get over just how gorgeous she was. He kept his smile on her face as she came closer and he leaned in to kiss her cheek, catching her eyes, “You look beautiful as always, how are you?”

“You know, I’ve been out of the hospital for a almost a week and a half now and I still haven’t seen you.” He smiled as he stood at the entryway to Dive & Sea. “You want to have lunch with me?”

cara-hastings:

Standing, Cara reached back and pulled the zipper of her dress, letting it fall to the floor at her feet. She’d never been one to worry about stripping in front of her male friends, especially not Luis, and she was so drunk she couldn’t care less anyway. “I’ll find clothes now.”

Luis glanced up at her and laughed softly. “You know I’m still upset that we’ve never hooked up. I mean you always tease me with that body of yours.” He teased and picked up the phone to order food. “You know where everything is.”

“She’s still your friend and you still want her in your life.” She added, rolling her eyes at the scene he was now creating. “They were only doing there job, I’m just disappointed, Luis.” Which was the truth, she wasn’t angry, she wasn’t upset, she was disappointed. “I know, I know and you’re right but, I need to get better. Bloody hell, if Brandon Jacobs tells me that I need to get help, I need to get help. I’m going to get better and then, soon enough, I’ll be back to running events and working at the Flower Shop. I just need your support, okay?”

“Brandon, Sally, Nic, I don’t fucking care who it is, fuck them..just..” he gave her a frustrated sigh and sat in the seat across from her, hanging his head slightly. “You know you always have my support, Kit. You know that. No matter what.” He leaned back in his chair and looked at her. “Do you need me to bring you anything?”

peyton-murray:

Just as Peyton was about to turn away, the man began to speak. Tilting her head she tapped her chin with her index finger. A smile plastered on her face as he tried stopping her. It was late and Peyton really didn’t feel like cooking so take out was her first option. Mac and Cheese was only back up. The man had turned the lights on and Peyton took a step inside. “You really don’t have to go through all that trouble sir. Really you don’t.” Catching a glimpse of his arm she inhaled sharply, shaking her head. “I can’t let you do that alone, not in that condition. Can I ask what happened?”

“Nah, it’s really okay. And you can call me Luis. It looks worse than it is.” He laughed softly and led her inside, back into the kitchen as he switched on the lights and pulled out some ingredients. “Ah I got jumped. It happens. But I’m a lot better than I was, so. What do you feel like eating?”

[luis-alvaradorp]

kitty-summers:

“Lies. She’s our Sally, Luis.” She corrected, her fingertips tugging against his arms, “I was in the psych ward so they could observe me for an hour or two, they needed to calm me down, they took me to Rehab later. I was in hysterics, God, I probably freaked Sally out. – Please, I just need to get better, I need to focus on getting better and then I get to come home. You want that, right? You want me home?”

“Kitty I don’t know if you know this but she hasn’t been mine for a long long time. But that’s no important.” He ran his good hand through his hair, adjusting his arm in his sling. “Well no shit you were freaking out, Kitty. They carted you off like you’re insane!” He sighed and closed his eyes, trying to get himself together. “Is this not exactly what I was talking to you about a week ago when I was in the hospital? Them treating you like some nut case? This is..” He shook his head and looked at her. “Of course I want you home, Kitty. You know that.”

margotxstark:

“Checking you out? Dude, I know there’s a disgusting little dick hanging between your legs, that means I’m never going to check you out.” She pointed out, a chuckle leaving her lips as she said the words. “Fuck yeah. I promise I’m good at it, I won’t fuck your skin up.”

“It is not disgusting! That’s just rude. Kicking a man while he’s down.” He laughed and shook his head. “Alright. Then we’ll do something up. I’ve been thinking about something new on my other arm.”

hiitshollyx:

“I do not doubt that for a second, believe me,” she said, nodding her head quite solemnly. “Let’s hope so! But if you’re involved, I’m sure I will be.”

“I’m sure we could still have some fun even when I’m like this.”

[luis-alvaradorp]

brandonxjacobs:

“How about a coffee instead.”

“Coffee it is. How do you like your coffee?”

[luis-alvaradorp]

kitty-summers:

“Please don’t be angry at her, she’s still our Sally.” She whispered, playing with the hem of her jumper, “You know how your family came admit you into rehab? Well, Sally did and I don’t understand how because, I don’t have any family and you’re my next of Kin. I can only guess that Nic had something to do with it..”

“She’s your Sally. She’s not mine.” He crossed his arms over his chest. “She forced you here against your own will. Which means they both did it. Which means that pretty boy broke the fucking law and forced you from your home into the fucking psych ward, Kitty. This is..I am not letting this shit slide. This is not how this should have been handled.”
