Summary: Elijah Moore thought he could handle anything — grief, responsibility, watching his mother fade in pieces. He didn’t expect the woman hired to care for her to teach him how to stay… not just in the room, but in the moment.
A/N: This was requested by @saralance03. I made this soo long, that I had to split this up into four parts. This is for the yearner girlies… and boys too. Enjoy!! 💜🙃
C/W: Slow Burn, Caring for a parent with Dementia
W/C: 4.4k
The first time Smoke notices something is wrong, it isn’t dramatic.
It isn’t a fall. A hospital call or the kind of moment that turns into a big story later.
It’s a Tuesday. Late afternoon. The light outside is thin and pale, and his mother is standing in the kitchen staring at the open pantry as if it’s a riddle she’s been given and refused the answer.
He’d come by after work, expecting to step into a house that still felt identical to his childhood, instead he was greeted by an eerie silence.
His father is at the table, glasses on, hands wrapped around a mug that’s been reheated too many times. The television is on without sound.
“Ma?” Smoke says, soft.
She turns, startled, eyes wide in a way that makes his stomach dip. Then she smiles too bright, too quick, as if she’s trying to cover up something.
“Oh. Baby.” She laughs. “I was—”
Her eyes move past him, then back. Searching for the right words.
“I was about to—” she tries again, and the words disappear.
Smoke stands still. He waits. He gives her time.
His father doesn’t move at all. Doesn’t intervene or rescue her from the moment.
That’s the part that makes Smoke finally look at him.
His father’s jaw isn’t clenched. His expression isn’t angry. It’s tired in a deeper way—tired with edges worn down.
“She can’t find the cereal,” his father says quietly, as if naming it makes it less terrifying.
His mother blinks, then frowns at the pantry again.
“The cereal’s not—” she mutters. “Somebody—”
Smoke steps forward, opens the right cabinet without thinking, and pulls the box down. Places it gently on the counter.
“There it is,” he says.
His mother stares at it like it’s appeared by magic. Then she laughs again, more fragile this time.
“Well, ain’t that somethin’,” she chuckled, as if God himself is playing jokes.
Smoke doesn’t laugh with her.
He kisses her forehead, quick—because he can’t do slow, not right then—and turns his face away before she can see what happens to his expression.
He takes a breath that doesn’t help and looks back toward the table.
“Pop,” he questions.
His father meets his eyes and says, in the same low tone he used to use when Smoke and Stack were kids and he didn’t want to scare them, “She’s had a rough few days.”
Smoke nods once.
A few days means it’s been happening. Quietly. Without Smoke witnessing it.
A few days means his father has been catching her before she falls off the edge herself.
A few days means Smoke is late.
After that, the house becomes a place Smoke goes to even when he has no reason to be there.
He comes with groceries no one asked for. He comes with takeout because his father has started forgetting to eat unless Smoke puts food in front of him. And he comes with mail he picked up from their mailbox downtown.
With him coming by the house daily, he starts noticing small things.
Sticky notes on the refrigerator: turn off stove in his father’s handwriting, the letters larger than Smoke remembers. A drawer half-open. A pot put away in the wrong cabinet. His mother’s purse hanging on the doorknob, keys inside, as if she was about to leave and forgot where.
Some days are fine.
Some days are even good.
His mother makes coffee and remembers everyone’s preferences, teasing Smoke about being too picky, Stack about being too messy and their father about being too stubborn. Those days feel almost normal, and Smoke hates them because they trick him into hope.
Other days…
His mother’s eyes skim over Smoke’s face as though she’s trying to place him in a line of people she once knew.
She calls him by his father’s name.
She asks where the boys are, and Smoke stands there with his hands at his sides, trying to answer in a way that doesn’t sound as helpless as he feels.
“The boys are right here, Ma,” he says once, voice careful.
She squints. “Don’t tease me. Y’all too grown.”
Smoke laughs because it’s easier than swallowing.
“Yeah,” he says. “We are.”
She stares at him, still unsure, then nods as if she’s decided to accept the lie.
On the drive home, Smoke grips the steering wheel so hard his knuckles ache. He keeps his eyes on the road because if he looks at anything else, he’ll see his mother’s face again—her confusion, her smile, the way she tried to cover it up so nobody would worry.
And the thought hits him in a cold, cruel way:
She is trying to protect them.
Even now.
Stack comes less.
Not because he doesn’t love her.
Because he loves her too much.
Smoke knew it the first time Stack slips out early.
It’s a Sunday. They’re all in the living room, his mother is sitting between them on the couch with a throw blanket folded neat across her lap. Their father is in his chair, remote in hand, pretending to watch a game.
Smoke has his arm along the back of the couch, shoulders heavy, trying to stay present. Stack is close enough that their knees touch. It used to happen naturally when they were kids, a habit that never completely left.
Their mother glances at Stack and smiles.
“You look good,” she says warmly.
Stack grins. “I’m always lookin’ good.”
She laughs. Then her smile falters, the way a candle flickers when a door opens.
“And you are…?” she asks him.
The room goes silent, but not in a dramatic way. In a way that feels accidental. The kind of silence where nobody knows what sound belongs next.
Stack’s grin freezes. Smoke sees his brother’s eyes glass over so fast it’s almost unnoticeable—almost.
“Ma, it’s me,” Stack says, too bright. Too loud. “Elias.”
Their mother’s face tightens with embarrassment.
“Of course,” she says quickly, reaching for his hand. “I know that.”
But her grip is uncertain, fingers patting his knuckles as if she’s searching for proof through touch.
Stack’s mouth opens like he’s going to say something else, then closes. He swallows, and Smoke can almost hear it.
“I—” Stack starts.
Smoke slides in, quick, gentle.
“Ma, you want some ice cream?” Smoke asks. “That butter pecan you like. We got it in the freezer.”
Their mother’s face brightens instantly.
“Oh, yes. Yes, baby. That sounds nice.”
Smoke stands, heading for the kitchen so Stack doesn’t have to hold that moment any longer than necessary.
He hears the couch creak. The front door opens, then closes.
By the time Smoke returns with bowls and spoons, Stack is gone.
Smoke doesn’t call him back.
But later, when Smoke walks outside and finds Stack sitting in his car with his forehead pressed against the steering wheel, Smoke taps on the window.
Stack rolls it down halfway. His eyes are red. He laughs once, bitter, because he can’t stand to let it be obvious.
“She looked right at me,” Stack says. “Right at me. And didn’t know who the fuck I was.”
Smoke leans against the car door. He doesn’t tell him to calm down or that it’ll be okay.
“It’s hard,” Smoke says.
Stack’s hands grip the wheel.
“I can’t do it,” he whispers. “I can’t sit there and watch her get lost in front of me. That’s my mama. That’s my—”
He breaks off, breath catching.
Smoke nods, slow.
“Then don’t,” Smoke says. “Not if it tears you up like this.”
Stack laughs again, shaky. “So what, you just gon’ do it alone?”
Smoke looks back at the house, where the lights glow warm behind the curtains. Their father’s silhouette moves past the living room window.
“No,” Smoke says quietly. “I’m not alone.”
But he doesn’t say what he’s thinking:
I’ll be the one who stays.
Somebody has to.
Their father doesn’t want help.
Smoke learns that during the first real argument they have about it—an argument that isn’t raised voices, but something older. Something that has lived between them for years.
It starts with a brochure.
Smoke brings it over one evening, laying it on the kitchen table beside the mail and the unpaid bills and the little pile of pill bottles that keeps growing.
A memory care facility, not far from their neighborhood. Clean. Bright. Structured.
Safe.
Smoke taps the paper with two fingers.
“I looked into it,” he says, voice even. “They got good staffin’ ratios. They got a unit for early onset. They do activities. Therapy. They got security. She wouldn’t be—”
“She won’t be here,” his father interrupts.
Smoke looks up.
His father stands at the sink, hands in dishwater that’s gone cloudy. He doesn’t turn around, but his shoulders are rigid.
“This her home,” his father says. “I’m not puttin’ yo’ mama in some place where strangers—”
“It’s a place where folk go when they families don’t want to deal wit ‘em no more,” his father snaps, finally turning. His eyes flash with something fierce. “That’s what that shit it is.”
Smoke’s stomach twists.
“That’s not what I’m sayin’,” Smoke replies.
His father shakes his head like he’s trying to shake off the idea itself.
“You keep offerin’ solutions that get her out my sight,” he says. “You think I can sleep at night knowin’ she somewhere else? Not in this house? Not wit’ me?”
Smoke takes a breath, chooses his words.
“You think this is sustainable?” Smoke asks. “You think you can do this by yourself?”
His father’s face hardens.
“I been doin’ it,” he says.
Smoke’s voice drops lower, firmer only in honesty.
“And it’s eatin’ you alive.”
His father flinches at that, just barely.
For a moment, Smoke sees fear. Not anger.
Fear.
Then it’s gone, replaced with stubbornness.
“I made vows,” his father says. “I’m not leavin’ her.”
Smoke’s hands spread on the table, palms down.
“Nobody’s askin’ you to leave her,” Smoke says. “But you need help. You need someone here who knows what they doin’.”
His father scoffs, a small sound.
“And what. You want to hire a muthafucka to take my place?”
Smoke looks at him, and in that moment he understands something he’s been avoiding:
This isn’t just about his mother.
It’s about what his father can’t admit.
That he’s losing her.
That he can’t fix it.
That he can’t outwork this.
And Smoke, fortunately or unfortunately, is his son. The one who shows up with paperwork, solutions, money and thinks practicality can save them.
The one who mirrors his father’s worst habit: trying to wrestle fear into submission.
Smoke softens his tone.
“I’m not tryin’ to hire nobody to take your place,” he says. “I’m tryin’ to keep you from collapsin’.”
His father’s eyes flick toward the hallway where his mother is. Then back.
“She don’t need strangers,” his father says.
Smoke exhales slowly.
“Then it’s not strangers,” Smoke says. “It’s help. In-home. Somebody comes here. She stays here. You stay here. We bring the help to the house.”
His father hesitates. Smoke sees it. The smallest crack.
And Smoke presses gently through it.
“Let’s compromise,” Smoke says. “Just try it.”
His father doesn’t answer right away. He looks down at his hands, wet and pruned from the dishwater.
Finally he mutters, “Your brother agree wit’ this?”
Smoke doesn’t look away.
“Elias can’t be here the way I can,” Smoke says. “You know that.”
His father’s mouth tightens.
“He should still—”
“He loves her,” Smoke cuts in, then catches himself, breathes. “He loves her too much. He can’t handle seein’ her forget him. I’ll be here. I’m here.”
His father stares at him for a long time, eyes narrowed—assessing.
Then, grudgingly, he nods once.
“Fine,” he says. “In-home.”
Smoke’s shoulders loosen a fraction.
“We’ll cover it,” Smoke adds. “Me and Elias.”
His father’s pride flickers. He opens his mouth—
Smoke’s voice becomes firm.
“No,” Smoke says. “Don’t start. Not over money.”
His father’s expression darkens, irritation flaring hot.
“You always think money solve everythin’.”
Smoke holds his gaze.
“No,” Smoke says quietly. “But it’s just the only thing I can control.”
Silence drops over the kitchen, thick and heavy.
His father looks away first.
“Find somebody,” he says. “But they better be good.”
Smoke nods.
“I will.”
Finding the right person turns out to be its own kind of war.
Smoke doesn’t trust easily. He reads reviews. Checks licenses. Interviews agencies. Asks questions until people get uncomfortable. He watches their faces when they talk about dementia, about behavioral changes, about safety measures and dignity and patience.
He watches for the ones who say the right words like they’re reading off a script.
He needs someone who can do the job and still see his mother as a human—not a case.
When he finally gets the call, it comes on a Friday afternoon while he’s in his office pretending to work.
“Mr. Moore?” the agency coordinator says. “We have someone available who fits the level of care you requested. Skilled nursing, memory care experience. She’s been with us a while. Good references.”
Smoke sits up straighter.
“What’s her name?”
“Annie—,” the coordinator says, then gives the last name. “Carter.” Smoke repeats it in his head, trying to make it mean something. It doesn’t.
“Age?”
“Late twenties,” the coordinator says. “She has experience with early-onset cases.”
Smoke rubs his thumb along the edge of his phone.
“When can she start?”
“Monday.”
Smoke glances at his calendar, already knowing he’ll clear his schedule. Already knowing he’ll be at the house, no matter what.
“Okay,” he says. “Send me everything.”
He hangs up and stares at the blank space on his desk for a moment.
Monday.
A stranger will walk into their home.
A stranger will see his mother the way she is now.
A stranger will see his father’s exhaustion, Stack’s absence, Smoke’s frantic attempt to hold it all together with planning and presence.
Smoke hates that, but also needs that.
He leans back in his chair and closes his eyes.
In his mind, he sees his mother as she was—her laugh loud, her hands always warm, the way she moved through their lives with purpose. He remembers her telling them to stand up straight, to say thank you, to look people in the eye. He remembers her fixing Stack’s collar before school, pinching Smoke’s cheek even when he acted too grown to want it.
He thinks of the way she used to sing in the kitchen on Saturdays, dancing while she cooked, pulling their father into it until he smiled despite himself.
He opens his eyes again.
Monday.
He doesn’t know what he’s hoping for.
A miracle isn’t coming.
But maybe—just maybe—someone walking into the house with the right kind of hands can keep his mother comfortable longer. Can keep his father from drowning. Can keep Smoke from breaking in the corners of rooms no one checks.
Smoke picks up his phone and texts Stack.
We got in-home help startin’ Monday. Skilled nurse. Memory care.
A few minutes pass.
Then Stack replies:
Okay.
Then, after another pause:
She good, the nurse?
Smoke stares at the question, feeling a strange pressure behind his eyes.
He types:
I don’t know yet. But I’ll be there.
Stack replies almost immediately:
I’ll come when I can.
Smoke reads that one twice.
He doesn’t answer with anger.
He answers with truth.
I know.
Monday arrives cold, though it shouldn’t be. The sky is overcast, and the kind of gray that makes everything look muted.
Smoke gets to the house early.
His father is already up, already dressed. He’s made coffee and cleaned the kitchen like he’s expecting company he invited willingly. Because he wants the house to look normal. Because he wants to look capable.
“You didn’t have to come this early,” his father says when Smoke walks in.
Smoke sets a bag of pastries on the counter and shrugs out of his coat.
“Didn’t want you dealin’ with this alone,” Smoke replies.
His father scoffs, but it isn’t cutting. It’s almost grateful.
“You act like I’m soft.”
Smoke looks at him.
“You human,” Smoke says.
His father’s gaze holds for a moment, then slides away.
In the living room, his mother is awake, sitting in her usual chair by the window. Her hair is brushed. She’s wearing earrings—small pearls she’s had for years. She looks put together in a way that breaks Smoke’s heart, because it’s effort. It’s a performance she doesn’t realize she’s doing.
“Baby,” she says when she sees Smoke, and for a moment he feels relief so strong it almost drops him to his knees. She knows him. Today, she knows him.
He crosses the room, kisses her cheek.
“How you feelin’?” he asks.
She pats his hand.
“I’m fine,” she says firmly. “Yo’ daddy keep fussin’ over me.”
His father huffs from the doorway. “‘Cause you keep forgettin’ you left the stove on.”
She turns her head, offended.
“I did not.”
Smoke smiles, but it doesn’t reach his eyes. He slides into the chair across from her, elbows on his knees.
“You got company comin’ today,” Smoke says gently.
His mother brightens.
“Oh? Who’s comin’?”
Smoke glances at the clock.
“Someone to help you out durin’ the day,” he says. “Just to make things easier for you and Pop.”
His mother’s smile falters for a second.
“I don’t need help,” she says, instinctive.
Smoke keeps his tone calm.
“I know you don’t,” he says. “But we doin’ it anyway. ‘Cause you deserve to have it easy.”
His mother looks between Smoke and his father as if trying to read what’s happening behind their words.
His father clears his throat.
“It’s just durin’ the day,” he says. “So I can run errands. Get some rest.”
His mother studies him, then nods as if she’s decided to allow it, not because she understands, but because she trusts him.
Smoke’s phone vibrates.
A notification from the agency: Nurse en route. ETA 5 minutes.
Smoke stands.
“I’ll get the door.”
As he walks down the hallway, he feels his pulse quicken. Not excitement or nerves, but something else.
A protective instinct.
This person is about to see them at their most exposed.
The doorbell rings. Smoke reaches the front door and pauses with his hand on the knob.
He exhales once, slow, controlled.
Then he opens it.
A woman stands on the porch with a tote bag slung over her shoulder and a folder tucked against her chest. She’s dressed in scrubs—simple, worn in, the fabric softened by too many washes. Her hair is pulled back neatly, not styled so much as managed.
Smoke is unprepared for her face though.
For the way her features settle—balanced, warm, unmistakably pretty without effort. For the quiet confidence in her posture. For the fact that she fills the doorway in a way he doesn’t expect, curves generous beneath the loose fabric, unmistakably feminine even in clothes designed to disappear a body.
But it’s her eyes that stop him.
Large. Dark. Soft in shape but not in awareness. The kind of eyes that take things in fully before responding. They don’t dart or skim. They rest on him, even and thoughtful, like she’s cataloging everything.
And her skin—
Smooth, deep brown, rich as polished wood in the morning light. It catches the sun at the edge of the porch, glowing without trying to. There’s something grounding about it. Familiar in a way he can’t place, but instinctively trusts.
He feels it before he understands it.
The composure. The warmth. The presence.
His brain clocks the details before his conscience steps in.
Then he straightens slightly, reins himself back.
Wrong time.
Wrong place.
This is his mother’s house. This woman is here to care for her.
The thought embarrasses him—not because he noticed, but because he had the audacity to notice at all.
She looks at him and smiles, easy and unforced.
“Hi,” she says. “I’m Annie Carter. I’m here for Mrs. Moore.”
Her voice is calm. Not sugary. Not forced. Just… present.
Smoke blinks once, caught off guard by how normal she seems. How unafraid.
He steps aside.
“Uhh—yes, come in,” he says, clearing his throat. “I’m Elijah, Mrs. Moore’s son.”
Annie nods as she crosses the threshold.
“Nice to meet you, Elijah.”
As she moves into the house, Smoke notices something small—how she doesn’t rush. How she looks around without staring. How she seems to register the photos on the wall, the silence, the weight, and doesn’t flinch.
His father appears behind him, posture stiff again.
Annie turns toward him, offering a hand.
“Mr. Moore?” she asks.
His father hesitates for half a beat, then shakes her hand.
“Yes.”
“I’m Annie Carter, thank you for having me,” Annie says. “I know this can feel… intrusive. But I’m going to work with what you already have in place. I’m not here to change your home. I’m here to support you.”
Mr. Moore’s expression stays guarded, but something in his shoulders eases.
Smoke watches Annie’s face closely, looking for cracks. Looking for signs of someone who will get overwhelmed, impatient, careless.
He doesn’t see any.
Annie turns her attention toward the living room.
“Would you like me to introduce myself to Mrs. Moore now?” she asks looking between Smoke and Mr. Moore.
Smoke nods.
Annie walks toward his mother with the same unhurried pace, like she understands that the space between people matters. When she reaches the chair, she lowers herself slightly, not in a towering or hovering way.
“Good morning,” Annie says warmly. “Mrs. Moore? My name is Annie. I’m going to be here with you during the day to help out.”
Smoke’s mother looks up at her, eyes narrowing in that familiar assessing way.
“Well,” she says, drawing the word out. “You’re pretty.”
Annie’s smile widens.
“Thank you, so are you,” she says, as if she’s genuinely pleased. “I love your earrings. Those pearls are beautiful.”
His mother touches her earlobe, surprised, delighted.
“Oh… these old things?” she says, suddenly shy. “I’ve had these forever.”
“They suit you,” Annie says.
Smoke feels it—his mother’s attention locking onto Annie’s face, her expression softening. The way her shoulders drop, relaxing without even realizing it.
And Smoke realizes, with a strange pull in his chest:
His mother feels safe with her already.
His father clears his throat, resisting emotion through irritation.
“What exactly will you be doin’, Ms. Carter?” he asks.
Annie turns toward Mrs. Moore.
“I’m just going to speak with your husband for a moment, alright?” she says gently. “I’ll be right back.”
Mrs. Moore nods, distracted by the framed photos on the mantel.
Mr. Moore follows.
They move a few steps away, voices lowered but not secretive.
“Please, call me Annie. I’ll be with her during the day,” Annie explains calmly. “I’ll help make sure she takes her meds on time, stays safe, and has some kind of routine—nothing rigid, just familiar. I’ll pay attention to things that may upset her, what settles her, what she responds to. And I’ll keep notes so you’re not guessing. We’ll take it one day at a time.”
His father’s eyes narrow.
“And if she gets upset?”
Annie doesn’t flinch.
“Then we slow down,” she says. “We don’t argue with her reality. We redirect gently. We keep her dignity intact.”
Smoke watches his father’s expression change—not fully trusting yet, but listening.
Annie looks back at Smoke’s mother.
“Would it be okay if I sat with you for a bit?” Annie asks.
His mother nods, already leaning into Annie’s presence.
Smoke stands there, hands at his sides, feeling… uncertain.
Not because Annie has done anything wrong.
Because Annie has done everything right.
In the span of five minutes, she has entered their home and eased something that Smoke has been wrestling for months.
It’s relief.
It’s jealousy.
It’s fear.
It’s hope, which is the most dangerous one.
Smoke steps back toward the hallway, giving them space, but he doesn’t leave. He stays where he can see, where he can hear.
Annie begins talking to his mother—not big questions. Simple conversation, gentle humor. She asks what Mrs. Moore likes for breakfast. What music she enjoys. What she did for work when the boys were little.
His mother answers in fragments, sometimes wrong, sometimes half-true, and Annie listens intently. She follows her down each path as if it’s worth walking.
Smoke’s throat tightens.
He looks toward his father, who stands near the doorway, arms crossed, watching. His eyes are damp, but his face remains controlled, as if he’s refusing to let anyone see the softness.
Smoke understands that too well.
Annie laughs quietly at something his mother says, and his mother laughs back, a warm sound that fills the room.
Smoke closes his eyes for a second, just to hold it.
When he opens them again, Annie looks up—briefly—and meets Smoke’s gaze across the room.
There’s no flirtation in it.
No invitation.
Just an acknowledgment.
A silent message that lands without words:
I see what you’re carrying.
Smoke doesn’t look away.
He gives a small nod, almost imperceptible.
Because for the first time in a long time, the house doesn’t feel quite so airless.
And Smoke realizes something else, too—something he won’t say out loud yet:
He’s going to come every day.
Not because he doesn’t trust Annie.
But because he doesn’t trust himself to miss whatever moments his mother can still give them.
And because there’s a presence in his family’s home now that makes the grief less lonely.
He watches Annie smooth the throw blanket over his mother’s knees, fingers careful as they tuck the fabric just beneath her hands. The movement is unhurried. Familiar. She adjusts it without fuss, like she’s done it a hundred times before, like comfort is something she knows how to place precisely.
He steps forward at the same moment she does, instinctively reaching to fix the corner she’s already straightening. Their hands hover inches apart, close enough to feel the warmth from each other’s skin.
Neither of them touches.
She withdraws first, subtle, giving him room he didn’t realize he needed.
The space between them lingers longer than it should. Not empty. Not accidental.
And for the first time, Elijah feels the pull—not loud, not dramatic—just a quiet awareness that something has begun to move beneath the surface, slow and patient, waiting for its moment.
I feel so horrible for MBJ and Delroy… as we often have to, they bounced back and carried on with grace and dignity. And I know they both are surrounded by love and joy.
But I keep seeing this “I feel sorry for everyone involved.” “This sucks for everyone involved”
Only two people had to stand with cameras in their faces in front of their colleagues, families, and the entire world and be subjected to racial violence.
And so while sympathy is unlimited, mine isn’t and it is very much limited to those two and no one else.
John shouldn’t apologize for his disability but he should apologize for the very real harm it caused. Because neurodivergence isn’t an excuse to cause harm. It might explain it but you still need to apologize. Michael and Delroy are owed that even if they, themselves, can never publicly address this.
Also fuck BAFTA because you apparently were able to edit out Free Palestine before airing the show but not the N-word.
This was just so shitty and on a night where Sinners shined so much, it’s unfortunate that it was ruined for them
Warnings: a dominant Megan, slight teasing, head (fem reviving) sex toy(strap) dirty talk, praise, short fic.
————-
You lay on your stomach against the soft bed with the light pink blankets, swinging your feet at the tall woman who stood prettily in front of the full-length mirror. Smiling at you.
She spends the night at your house for the start of summer simply because she misses you so much. Your smile, your laugh and your sense of humor.
“Baby, you’re so beautiful,”
Megan giggled and stepped toward you, kissed your lips sweetly. You hopped off the bed and stood in front of you, looking up at her with a smirk.
You were only 5’2 which you’ve grown to love when you once wished to be tall as a kid. Your locs pulled up in a bun and melanated skin.
While Megan was a lot taller than you which was an experience all on its own. Standing at 5'10, she had a commanding presence that made your heart race every time you were near her.
"What are you smirking at, little one?" Megan teased, her voice low and playful.
You bit your lip, feigning innocence. "Just admiring my tall, gorgeous girlfriend."
She laughed, a sound that sent butterflies fluttering in your stomach. "You think you can sweet talk me into getting what you want?”
"Maybe," you replied, your voice dripping with sass. "But I know you love it."
Megan stepped closer, her body radiating heat as she leaned down to whisper in your ear. "You know I can be dominant if you let me, right?"
Your breath hitched at the implication. You had talked about this before, the idea of her taking control. But hearing her say it made you feel a rush of excitement. "I...I wouldn’t mind," you admitted, your cheeks warming up.
"Good, because I want to be little bad for me" she smirked, pulling back to look into your eyes.
You swallowed hard, feeling a thrill run through you. "What do you have in mind?"
Megan's gaze darkened with desire as she walked you back toward the bed, gently pushing you down onto the soft blankets. "Just relax and let me take care of you," she said, her voice smooth and sultry.
You nodded, the anticipation building in your chest as she climbed on top of you, her weight comforting yet thrilling. "Megan..."
"Shh," she interrupted, placing a finger over your lips. "I want you to be quiet and just enjoy."
With that, she began to shower you with kisses, trailing her lips down your neck and across your collarbone. Her short hair swung over her ear.
"You're so beautiful, baby," she murmured, her breath hot against your skin. "I want to hear you say it."
"I’m beautiful," you breathed, already lost in the moment.
"Good girl," she praised, a wicked grin spreading across her face. "Now let's have some fun."
She pulled down your shorts and panties, lifting your grey tank top. Your titties bounced out and gently she palmed them, As she took off her clothes, leaving the both of you bare underneath the dim lighting.
Megan’s thumb rolled over your clit and you gasped softly, her tongue gliding up and down on your wet folds, slurping and swallowing your essence, dripping down her chin.
“Your pussy tastes so good, so beautiful..” Megan moaned.
She continued her delicious assault, causing your back to arch off the bed with pleasure.
"Megan," you whimpered, your fingers tangling in her hair. "Please, I can't take much more."
She looked up at you with those sultry eyes, a smirk playing on her lips. "Oh, but we're just getting started, baby. I want to make you feel incredible."
With that, she dove back in, her tongue working magic as she focused on your sensitive spots. You could feel the heat pooling in your core, the pressure building as she expertly brought you closer to the edge.
"That's it," she murmured against you, sending vibrations through your body. "Let go for me."
You could hardly think, the sensation overwhelming as you teetered on the brink of ecstasy. "Megan... I’m going to—"
"Not yet," she interrupted, pulling back just enough to catch her breath. "I want you to hold it for me.”
Your heart raced as she reached for the strap she had brought along, securing it around her waist. "You trust me, right?" she asked, her voice low and commanding.
"Of course," you replied breathlessly, your body aching for her.
"Good," she said, positioning herself between your legs. "I want you to feel every inch of me."
As she pressed inside, a moan escaped your lips, the fullness taking your breath away. "Oh fuck, Megan."
"Look at you," she praised, her voice dripping with affection. "So perfect for me. Just relax and let me take care of you."
She began pushing his hips, perfectly hitting that sweet spot inside you. “S-shit, yes! You fuck me so gooddd!” you cried out, hands balling up in the blankets.
If only she could your walls clenched around her, she could only see your pussy clench around it. Your wetness gushed on the sheets below, gripped your thighs and looked down at her.
“Is my girl feelin' good huh?” Megan teased, biting her plump lips. Feeling your nails scratch at her back and thighs, she groaned at the pain.
“So good, baby, so good!” You hollered, throwing your head back in pleasure. Pulling her down by her neck for a kiss.
“P-please, I want to ride you!”
She immediately gripped your hips, lifting you up and watched your body shake against hers, your arms around her neck, pulling you close to her, Moving her hips upwards at a new pace, “Fuck! Fuck! Megan!”
Tears rolled down and burned your cheeks, your breasts pressed against hers, nipples touched. “Damn baby?" she asked, her breath hot against your ear.
Her juices pooled around her thighs, mixing with yours. Making a mess on the strap everywhere, “That pussy is so tight,” Moaning loudly with you, as the rhythm steady and intoxicating. Your body responded eagerly, the tension building once more.
"So good... I can’t—"
"Yes, you can," she encouraged, her pace quickening. "I want you to come for me. Show me how much you love it."
The pressure in your core grew more intense, a delicious burn that only she could ignite. "I’m going to—"
"Now, baby! Let it go," she commanded, and with that, you shattered, waves of pleasure crashing over you as you cried out her name. Your essence poured into everywhere, with her still inside. The two of you collapsed in the same position.
Megan pulled out of you, and you moaned in a shaky breath, heavily breathing with you. She took up the strap and cleaned it with a disinfectant wipe, placing it back in the bag.
Her gaze fixed on your blissed-out expression. "Look at you, so beautiful when you come apart like that," she said, her voice thick with satisfaction.
You lay there, panting, feeling completely spent yet utterly fulfilled. "You’re incredible," you managed to say, your body still buzzing from the intensity.
She leaned down, capturing your lips in a soft kiss, her thumb brushing against your cheek. "And you’re mine," she whispered, holding you close.
“You’re mine too Meg,” You shot back with a smirk.
“Of course I am,”
As you both settled into the afterglow, you smiled. You stood up and ran into the bathroom, taking a bath while Megan took a shower.
Changing into fresh clothes and changing the sheets, cleaning up immediately before snuggling up in the bed.
Tonight had been everything you had dreamed of and more.
Apparently ICE now has agents posing as utility workers to get into people's homes. The electric and gas companies have posted information on how to tell if it's one of their workers, and numbers to call to confirm whether they've sent someone to do utility work on your house.
Some people have shared stories of suspicious “sales representatives” knocking on homes, asking about the home owners and who lives there, fishing for phone numbers, but do not provide business cards, company id, company phone numbers, etc when asked.
They come in pairs, never one person though one may hag back a bit. They have been seen using cars with significantly tinted windows, no business logos anywhere on the vehicle, or parking close to the home they walked up to only to drive away right after without visiting other homes, almost as if they’re not real sales people.
True door to door salespeople need a sort of peddler’s license, subject to city and county law, to solicit at your door. You can ask to see this permit. If they don’t provide one or make an excuse, they are likely bogus.
They wear a jacket with a company logo but likely don’t wear name tags and the Don’t provide id.
Tell them you’ll call the company about a noncompliant representative. Make them leave. Better yet not to open the door to them, and tell them nothing.
Actual sales reps also generally do follow “no soliciting” signs. Be aware, be safe, don’t give out your information or that of others under duplicitous means.

“Beyoncé, I swear to god if you don’t answer me, you can lose my number!” Annie semi yelled into the phone as it went on voicemail for the fourth time today. Usually Bey would answer on the first ring, no matter where she was. But Annie worried what about this specific business trip had her not answering her phone call.
“You ain’t never called your wife that many times.” Annie’s best friend Pearline popped up in her office door.
“My wife does have me cumming non stop.” Annie rolled her eyes, and got up grabbing her coat.
“So when are you gonna tell her?” Pearline folded her arms. She loved her best friend through it all, even if it meant supporting infidelity and keeping the biggest secret.
“Whenever time permits.” Annie grabbed her briefcase and headed towards the door, pecking Pearline’s temple before making her way outside the building.
She was extremely emotional and most importantly sexually frustrated. Not being able to be up under Beyoncé was driving her nuts. As soon as she put the car in drive, her phone rung, it was Beyoncé.
“Wassup baby?” That familiar southern rasp answered making Annie’s panties cling to her skin almost immediately with arousal.
“Don’t baby me! Why the fuck you ain’t answer your phone Giselle?” Annie rolled her eyes while focusing on the road.
“Annie chill out with all that, I’ve been busy. You know this.” She could hear the shuffling in the back ground, infuriating her more.
“What bitch you with Beyoncé? You know what, fuck you! I don’t want shit else to do with you!” Tear slowly filled Annie’s eyes.
“Baby-“ Annie had hung up before Beyoncé gave her some sory excuse, but, it was her fault. She met Beyoncé at her job, Beyoncé of course investing into the company she worked at. And ever since then, they fucked in every place imaginable. While at home, was Annie’s wife of three years
When Annie reached her two story house on the outskirts of Georgia, she was so lucky to see that her wife wasn’t home. Approaching her door steps set her favorite flowers, Lillie’s, yellow to be exact. There was a note attached to it, Annie already knew who they were from.
The note read: “You’ll never be done with me sweetie. I’ll see you in two days baby. Be prepared;).” And it was signed with her signature B in honey wax.
Annie stood on her doorstep, clutching the note in her trembling hand, the scent of yellow lilies teasing her senses. Her heart pounded. She wanted to be furious, and wanted to tear the note to shreds and pretend she could walk away from this. But the truth was undeniable, Beyoncé had her wrapped around her finger, and Annie was too far gone.
She stormed inside, slamming the door behind her, the empty house only building her frustration. Annie tossed her briefcase onto the couch, the lilies finding a temporary home on the counter as she paced. Two days. Beyoncé would be back in two days, and the promise in that note “Be prepared.” She hated how much she craved it, how much she craved her.
The next forty eight hours were torture. Annie’s emotions swung back and forth hate for Beyoncé one moment, desperate yearning the next. She ignored Beyoncé’s texts, every single one : “You still mad, baby?” and “I need you and I miss you so bad Annie.” Annie didn’t reply, but every message made her thighs clench, her body betraying her. Acting out was her way of clawing back control, but deep down, she wanted Beyoncé to take it all away.
When the day finally came, Annie was a live wire. She’d spent the morning dolling herself up, not for her wife, but for her. A tight black dress hugged her curves, the hem barely grazing her thighs, and her hair fell in loose waves that she knew Beyoncé loved to tug. She told herself it was to prove a point, to show Beyoncé she wasn’t some lovesick fool waiting around. But the truth? She was aching for Beyoncé to see her like this.
The knock at the door came. Annie’s pulse spiked, but she forced herself to move slowly, letting Beyoncé wait. When she finally opened the door, there she was, leaning against the frame. Her tailored suit hugged her frame, the top buttons of her shirt undone just enough to tease, and her eyes roamed over Annie like she was a meal to be savored.
“You gonna let me in, or keep playin’ games?” Beyoncé’s voice was low, that Southern drawl wrapping around Annie like silk.
Annie crossed her arms, jutting her chin out. “You got some nerve showin’ up here after that bullshit you pulled.”
Beyoncé’s lips twitched, a smirk that said she saw right through the attitude. She stepped forward, closing the distance, her presence overwhelming. “You hung up on me, baby. Threw a whole tantrum. You think that’s gonna keep me away?” Her hand reached out, fingers grazing Annie’s jaw, tilting her face up. “Look at you, all dressed up and actin’ tough. You missed me.”
Annie swatted her hand away, though the contact sent a jolt through her. “Fuck you, Giselle. You don’t get to walk in here and act like you wasn’t with some other hoe!”
Beyoncé’s eyes darkened, a dangerous glint sparking in them. She stepped inside, closing the door shut behind her, and backed Annie against the wall. “When you got all big and bold beautiful?” she murmured, her breath hot against Annie’s ear. “That’s fine. I got all night to fix that attitude.”
Annie’s breath hitched, she felt herself crumbling under the weight of Beyoncé’s intensity. She wanted to push back, to keep up the fight, but Beyoncé’s hand was already sliding down her side, fingers digging into her hip with just enough pressure to make her gasp. “You’re so full of shit,” Annie managed, her voice shaky. “I fucking ha—”
Beyoncé cut her off, her lips crashing against Annie’s with a hunger that swallowed any protest. The kiss was messy, all tongue, Beyoncé’s hands roaming possessively over Annie’s body. Annie moaned into it, her attitude shattering as she arched into Beyoncé’s touch, her fingers tangling in her hair. The guilt, the anger, the cheating, all faded under the heat of their connection, leaving only need.
Beyoncé pulled back just enough to speak, her lips brushing Annie’s as she growled, “You talk big shit, but look at you. fallin’ apart already.” Her hand slid under Annie’s dress, teasing the edge of her panties, and Annie’s knees nearly buckled. “You been thinkin’ ‘bout this, haven’t you? Been wet for me since that phone call.”
“Shut up,” Annie hissed, but her hips betrayed her, grinding against Beyoncé’s hand. She was desperate, and Beyoncé knew it.
Beyoncé chuckled. “Naw, baby, you don’t get to tell me what to do.” She spun Annie around, pressing her chest against the wall, her hands pinning Annie’s wrists above her head. “You been actin’ out ‘cause you need me. Say it.”
Annie bit her lip, stubborn to the last, but Beyoncé’s free hand came down on her ass with a sharp smack, the sting pulling a whimper from her throat. “Say it,” Beyoncé repeated, her voice a command wrapped in velvet.
“I—I need you,” Annie gasped, the words spilling out before she could stop them. Another smack followed, harder this time, and she moaned, the mix of pain and pleasure unraveling her.
“That’s my girl,” Beyoncé purred, her lips grazing the back of Annie’s neck. She released Annie’s wrists, spinning her back around and hoisting her up, Annie’s legs wrapping around her waist instinctively. Beyoncé carried her to the couch, laying her down with a gentleness that contrasted the fire in her eyes. “You gonna be good for me now?”
Annie nodded, too far gone to fight anymore. Beyoncé’s hands were everywhere, peeling off her dress, leaving her in nothing but lace. Beyoncé’s gaze raked over her, hungry and reverent, before she leaned down, her lips trailing kisses across Annie’s collarbone, her chest, lower. Annie’s back arched, her fingers digging into the couch as Beyoncé’s mouth found her.
“Fuck, Bey,” Annie whined, her voice breaking as Beyoncé’s tongue worked her over, drawing out every shudder, every gasp. Beyoncé’s hands gripped her thighs, holding her open, as her tongue toyed with her hardened pearl. When Annie’s moans grew too loud, Beyoncé paused, crawling up to hover over her, a grin on her face.
“Open,” she ordered, and Annie obeyed, parting her lips. Beyoncé spat into her mouth, the act filthy and intimate, and Annie swallowed, her eyes locked on Beyoncé’s, with full submission. “Good girl,” Beyoncé murmured, kissing her deeply, tasting herself on Annie’s lips.
Beyoncé lifted Annie’s legs, hastily removing her boxers and freeing herself. She teased her tip over Annie’s wet slip, pulling a ragged moan from her.
“Please-“ Annie begged, the sensation was overwhelming.
“You deserve this dick baby? All that attitude. Tell daddy how bad you want me to rock it.” Beyoncé leaned in, trailing kisses along Annie’s jaw.
“I want it so bad Giselle- fuck!” Beyoncé slid in, Annie’s walls immediately closing in. Annie’s moan grew louder and more intense.
“Say ya sorry mama!” Beyoncé was aggressive just how she liked and how she needed it.
“I’m so sorry b-baby, so sorry.” Tears leaked from her eyes, mostly from how pleasurable it was but also the guilt.
“Cum on this dick baby, I’m right behind you.” Bey moaned, burying her head in Annie’s neck as they both reached their peak.
But they weren’t done.
Hours later, they lay tangled on the couch. Annie’s body hummed with aftershocks, her skin still tingling from Beyoncé’s touch. Beyoncé’s arm was draped over her, possessive even in rest, her lips brushing lazy kisses against Annie’s temple.
Annie’s heart pounded, not just from the sex, but from the weight of what she needed to say. She turned her head, meeting Beyoncé’s gaze, those dark eyes soft now, unguarded. “Bey,” she whispered, her voice trembling. “I’m pregnant.”
And just then, Annie’s wife walked in, dropping their takeout. The two jumped up, barely covering themselves because it was too late.
“ANNIE? WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING WITH MY SISTER?”
