∼the lines on the left and right edges of the black frame are actually some unintended glitch while editing ^^" ∼but i decided to keep them :)
The end of this story 😊
It was fun sending me the emails, the FBI must have freaked out that I sent the messages to myself 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Whoa∼∼ tho it seems this is starting to evolve into an actual narrative👀✨✨
Oh! My, so this what all those tweet was about, okay😂😂👌
And oh my god was I cackling when MC had to really finally yell at Jake 🤣🤣 the girl can’t take it anymore she snapped lol😅
Now this conversation is actually reeeally sweet🥺💖💖 of course we love him for being the Jake we get to know🥺❤️ I can’t help but hope the actual atmosphere would turn out this way💖✨
I will surely make more mini-stories how are you if some chats I write give me inspiration 😊
As the application gives the opportunity to put images, I decided to be creative and write emails, maybe in the future I will do more of these things, get Jake involved in her life because he cares about MC I like that 🤭 he never questions her intuition
😂 I can assure you that in my head, after yelling that, MC was just as nervous as Jake, but the difference is that she won’t show it to him either 🤭
THANK YOU!! It doesn’t matter if Jake isn’t a movie star or he doesn’t look like an athlete, MC will always appreciate him 😌 Romantic music was playing in my head when writing their conversation talking about that future date 💖🥺
∼∼Heyoo👀✨
It’s cool as it gives more interesting factor to the narrative 💖💖 Well I can imagine Jake trying to convince himself at first he shouldn’t be meddling too much but end up unable to resist 🤭 because he can’t stand if something bad happen to her and he just let it ∼∼ also I can imagine MC’s intuitions scare him a bit sometimes 😳xD∼
Sure she’d be 😅 i’d always find it funny/cute whenever she has to remind herself in your stories that Jake should be the one who’s nervous instead of the other way around 😆 tho it’s obvious for her she has that case too 🤭
They feel each other’s presence and connect beyond what the eyes see, nothing can break that 😌💖 I genuinely hope something very close to the conversation they had here would be canon🥺❤❤
Jake, the guy who says “I don’t want to interfere in your life, BUT” and make sure that MC can at least be sure of any problem 😂I imagine that he is fascinated by her intuition 🤭 if things don’t go with him, then he would have to be afraid of her because she would catch him at first 😅
MC doesn’t get rid of his sweet words~, the two of them are a lost case in loving each other 😝 I really love writing different situations with them, it’s super fun!
The best thing about the game is that I got to imagine a lot of conversations they could have, since the passage of time is not known, there could be even more chats between Jake and the group but of course, that would be very long 😅 and there we enter the fandom! Be creative! 😊 Especially because I have done too many chats and I have other ideas 🤭
Exactly that 😂 he fluctuates from being considerate to "this is what's best for you" attitude xD (tho my MC argues with him about this whenever she got the chance to xD, like two stubborn kids smh lmaoo∼) ∼it works well for their teamwork😌✨
<∼and she definitely would so he better be good 😂>
I'm glad Duskwood has been inspiring your creativity and ideas a lot😊✨ it's really nice to see how much contents and how much fans the world of Duskwood had impacted in every way💖💖
ps: i'm probably gonna try to avoid some spoilers now😅 omg😵
I wanted to do a third part about that little plot of Phil and MC's wedding, with a deep conversation with Jake after they met 😉
One thing you should know about me... I love leaving open endings... 🤭 Don't worry, it's just an idea, it may not be anything serious 😌
👀So my brain right now's kinda like: "WHAT IS HAPPENING... I was off Tumblr for more a week and MC and Phil getting married, and Jake here doing the ‘congratulations-I'm-happy-for-you’ bit... what's happening∼∼" xD
But really, my heart is exploding bc he's extreemely fcking sweet even in this situation like I can't even take this just😭😭🥺💖💖
Well, what happened is that I dedicated some chats to Phil and MC along with Jessy that MC told him that Phil had proposed to him, they liked it a lot and this part came later xD and it has inspired me for something else 👀 the first part may come soon
It's what happens when he been missing for 3 years, he know he lost the battle 😂 the second chat in this little plot is Jessy and Jake talking about it 👀✨It will be so much fun to do something else with all this plot~
And also to offer a bit of Phil x MC for their fans! which is a couple that I would like to explore as well 🥰
Omg HIIIII😩🥺
Oohh, I see👀✨ and many things happen to catch up on whenever I go offline 😅 (and I don't always know when so it's always indefinite for me😩) ∼and now...👀 well I'm just glad it's not been long since the final ep got out
It sounds interesting how it goes🤭
Well it looks like something's stirring up that he's back👀👀
It's good to explore various things in being creative 🥰 and I'm sure it'll make PhilxMC fans happy as well∼🤭😌✨

MC: What is a computer's first sign of old age?
Jake: Well, there are a lot of things, like software, you know if you have a software problem, it can ruin all your work.
MC: ...
MC: Loss of memory.
I'm thinking for episode 10— or after— I hope there's something interactive in the real world that we could do as players, something like the #iamjake social media movement, but more collaborative between fans all over the world... a bit something like Alex Hirsch's "Cipher Hunt" when Gravity Falls had ended for example... although it doesn't look as convenient to execute in the current state of the world as before... but maybe something that's more feasible right now... something that can unite the fans around the world in some way...
Imagine getting the good ending out of Duskwood and the last thing we get is a message from Jake saying:
"I think I owe you dinner at a Chinese restaurant When do you want us to meet? ;) "
So the game ends...
Guardian Chapter 3
JakexF!MC Genre: Romance, Drama Suitable for everybody. Events during the chapter in chapter 8 Warning: mention of death Previous chapter ————————————————————————————- *Jake POV* I don’t know what to expect from that room, does it have something to do with the investigation? What is full of stuffed animals from when she was little? What would make a girl her age embarrassed? She slowly opens the door to that room, passing through first as if she wanted to check that everything is in order. “Okay, come on in.” I go in fearful, but then I am surprised. It's… A totally normal room. Well, almost normal, because it almost seems like a museum full of frames with news instead of works of art.The room appears to be quite clean for a room where no one sleeps. The bed is small compared to the one I’ve seen in her room. A desk full of family photos. I’d like to take a closer look at them. It’s quite… Lovely that she’s shy about hiding this. So I inadvertently let out a small laugh. “Is this what you were hiding?” I ask, approaching to read a newspaper clipping about a man with the same last name as MC who appeared in a photograph taken from afar, arresting someone. "You said you wouldn’t laugh" She reproaches, looking to the side. “I’m not laughing,” At least not making fun of her. I point to another piece of news. “They’re all from the same man.” “Yes… While in my adolescence my friends had posters and photos of trips or friends hanging in their rooms, I had newspaper clippings of the person I admired the most” she approaches me looking at the newspaper clipping, with a strange smile “He was a great police inspector. And sometimes her daughter collaborated with him when he got stuck in understanding the behavior of some suspect” she laughs, but I notice her differently. Distant. "And so began that girl’s little detective life.“ I put a hand to my chin, giving her a curious look. No wonder she paid attention to little details. "And as time went on, some of the police didn’t like it, too many people wanted the inspector job. If the girl were to occupy that position, it would be quite unfair.” I notice how she clenches her hands tightly, now angry. “But they all came up against a problem that even she couldn’t solve, so the jealous adults’ taunts came from her and her insecurity appeared, causing her to prefer to dedicate herself to investigating stories. Something that her father didn’t like. He hated reporters ever since that cold case.” "What happened to the inspector?“ I look at her, sympathetically “You speak of him in the past tense.” She bites her lip and looks at me. I notice how she tries to hold back her tears. “It was at Christmas. He and her daughter argued over a stupid article in the newspaper where she worked but she had nothing to do with it, because he thought it was some kind of revenge for those adults who laughed at her.” She sighs, putting a hand to her head, more annoyed by the past than because she had asked. In that article they laughed at the police for being incompetent because you can see that they should never have lost their perfect assistant. She tried to reason with him, they were both stubborn. They left the party arguing” little by little she reduces her words, slowing down speaking “They continued arguing in the car. Her daughter was the one driving, getting more and more nervous.” she replies, her voice cracking “Finally there was an accident. He and his wife died. Luckily his daughter was saved. But…” "She hasn’t recovered yet” I try to dig a little, I feel like she’s not talking about someone else. I can’t force her to tell me. "Yes, she recovered. It’s just that sometimes she thinks about why they should have argued that day. Let’s say that… She can’t forgive herself for not having apologized to him… Nor that she got to see the truck on time because she preferred to continue yelling at him than to choose to look in the rear-view mirror… Some journalists thought that the police covered up that the daughter was drunk because she was the daughter of her partner” she whispers that last angrily. MC lets out a sigh and smiles. “I’m going to prepare the food, I’ll leave you in charge of the last camera.” She heads for the door, but I stop her with my words. "I don’t think that girl should feel guilty.“ I look at her with a certain melancholy, understanding her. “Or at least… I think so…” “I’ll tell her when I sees her.” She leaves me alone in the room, ready to set up the cameras. It is impossible not to read all the articles, in some they talk about a mysterious police assistant who helped the inspector. I guess it’s in her genes. The photos are of the same man who must have been his wife and MC, at different stages of her life. In one of them, there is the man and MC showing just one of the articles where they talk about the mysterious assistant. Her father is smiling proudly and she seems happy. Seeing them makes me know more about her and makes me happy. By looking at it all, I completely unlock memories from my childhood. Even in that we are totally different, but… There was also a happy time in my life, although it lasted only a short time. To have someone to admire and from whom to learn. "She has decided to open up to you… She hasn’t told any of the group about this.“ I look at my hand. I tremble. MC has trusted me by telling me her story. Perhaps I should… I finish putting the last camera in and start to smell the food. My stomach growls. I almost always eat in restaurants or motels, a homemade meal? It had been years since anyone had prepared anything for me. MC must have been the person who had cared the most for me in a long time. I like it. “The food is ready.” She enters the room with a different attitude, more cheerful. “For the record, I don’t use the kitchen very much, so I don’t know how it turned out.” “I’ll take a shower and go out to eat.” I grab the backpack and hang it on my shoulder. I have everything that I need in it. "Oh! Do you want a towel? Do you use any special shampoo? I can go to sho- “MC, I appreciate your concern, but I have everything I need right here.” I point to the backpack. “Then give it to me!” “What?” “If you have dirty clothes, I can wash them.” I don’t want to take advantage of her. I refuse by throwing my shoulder back, not wanting her to grab my backpack. And I don’t mind washing my clothes in twenty-four-hour laundromats. “Jake, you really shouldn’t feel like you’re taking advantage of me.” << You read my mind!>> “Look, I put the washing machine in the clothes-” “You mean the clothes in the washing machine” she corrects me. Great, I can’t even speak properly anymore. “I put the clothes in the washing machine.” She puts a hand to her mouth, chuckling. Very funny, MC, making fun of "your grandfather”. I finish drying my hair and sniff the air. The soap she had put on this morning was now used by me. How am I going to be able to go back into hiding after this? All our chats on the mobile, having met in person… How am I going to go back to having the life I had if I’m here with her now? “Come on Jake! It’s going to get cold! ” Her voice wakes me from my thoughts and calms me down. I must take advantage of the now, we will see the later. I see her set the table when I go out, the lighting makes all her features stand out. She has a nice smile, she looks happy… Is it really because of me? “I could have helped you.” I walk over and she looks up, giving a small jump in surprise to hear me. “No, you’re my guest, I’ve already told you” she repeats. “I’m not a guest,” I replied, placing a hand on my hip, somewhat annoyed “let’s just say I’m your guardian for the time being.” "Well, anyway, being my guardian, I have to take care of you.“ She forces me to sit down and pats the table "You will leave here as if you had been in the Hilton hotel.” I laugh at the serious expression on his face. But she doesn’t change. << Yes, she says it seriously. She will not leave me until I satisfied. >> ————————————————————————————- *MC POV* I watch Jake eat, waiting for him to say something, is it good? It lacks salt? Too much salt? I usually buy the pasta to microwave when I’m in a hurry, I cook very little, so I want to know if it’s good… Maybe he doesn’t like the sauce! I should have asked him first. “They haven’t cooked for me in years…” he says, his voice cracking. “And is that good or bad?” <<Maybe I shouldn’t have asked. >> He remains thoughtful for a while, looking at the plate but without looking at it. Seeing beyond his thoughts. “Pretty… well.” I smile happily. I would hug him if it weren’t for the fact that we’re eating and it’s not polite to do that…. And that may make Jake uncomfortable. “But MC, don’t you think you’re trying too hard just for me?” He asks me and my heart breaks to pieces. I guess I went too far… But… I was so excited to have him here by my side… “Sorry, I guess I overwhelmed you.” I reply, trying not to sound sad. “You haven’t.” I look at him and I know he’s telling the truth. I see him relaxed, something has happened. ”Looking at your photos, I remembered something. ” “You don’t have to tell me if you don’t want to.” He stops eating and crosses his arms, deciding whether or not to answer me. He sighs and scratches the back of his neck, wincing. “I’m not used to just changing places to run away from the government.” He begins to speak, I notice him more confident. “When I was little, my mom and I moved around quite a bit. We weren’t flush with money to put it that way.” "Still, I’m sure she was one of those mothers who didn’t want her son to lack anything.” “Exactly,” he lets out a small laugh at the memory. “She was even trying to get me a father. But all the guys that she knew weren’t nice at all. It was the reason to move, they spent the rent money and again a new house, a new city, a new life.” I push the plate away and lean against the table, looking at him. He doesn’t seem nervous at all, on the contrary, talking about his mother seems like he likes it, how long has it been since he talked about her with someone? "At twelve, she decided it was time I got a computer to keep up with my studies.“ His lip forms a smile. Jake’s beginnings on a computer. "A normal computer was enough for me, I didn’t need one that was so extravagant. So she asked the man in the store for a second-hand one” he said ’Man’, not ’guy’, that’s a good thing. “He and my mother did not stop talking while I was there looking at them. It was the first time I saw my mother laugh like that. I liked him quite a bit.” “ ’Always stay with whoever makes you laugh, not cry’ “ I recite, smiling at him "It was something my mother used to say. ” “Very wise.” He affirms my sentence. “So, they started dating. It was all perfect. I finally had something like a family.” His eyes sparkle. It looks even more beautiful. “So, when my mother got off work, you can imagine what that computer-savvy man was doing.” "Look for adult content?” I joke, like the first time I answered him about what he could find in Hannah’s files. Jake arches an eyebrow, giving a little laugh. He had caught on right away. “One fine day, he sat me down next to him, put an arm around my shoulders and said ‘I’m going to teach you to have the digital world in your hands’. Imagine those words to a twelve-year-old, ‘He’s going to teach me to be a hacker. I will be like a spy from the movies!‘ ” I laugh when he gestures and speaks as if he were twelve years old, remembering that moment. "Little Jake’s first beginnings?“ I ask jokingly, imagining an excited young Jake looking at the computer screen. “At first it was fun,” he continues narrating. ”But imagine when you want to make friends and you propose to hack the director’s computer remotely so that every time he puts in his password, he has to listen to ‘Never Gonna Give You Up’.” "No…” “Yes.” “I can’t believe you.” “You wouldn’t believe the punishment we got for the whole school because the guilty one didn’t come out either,” he blushes embarrassed and it makes me laugh to see him like that, so sincere “No class went down to the playground for three months. Although well, it wasn’t a problem for me since I always stayed in the library practicing a little of what I was learning.” “Unbelievable, I have a juvenile delinquent in front of me,” I exaggerate making him laugh. His laughter is pleasant, sweet. I see that he even gets little crinkles in his eyes from laughing. I love knowing about Jake’s past. “Did your mother know it was you?” “No, nothing at all.” A mischievous smile escapes her. Oh… It looks good on him, he’s attractive. “And you… that man?” I don’t know whether to call that man stepfather, so I left it as he himself named it. “Of course,” he crosses his arms, arching an eyebrow “it was the first thing he taught me and with the neighbor’s computer. Every morning we woke him up with that song” we laugh again imagining the situation in our heads. Amazing that Jake was so naughty. “Yeah… Those were good times until that incident happened…“ His expression changes, all happiness had disappeared. "At fourteen, he just disappeared,” he continues much more slowly now. “My mother was very sad because she didn’t know about him. She asked his companions, his family… Nobody knew anything, they reported him missing. Months later, they ended up finding him… But it wasn’t a joy at all. My mother got sick. Do you know about those birds that if their partner dies, so does the other?” A lump forms in my throat. Is tougher than I thought “I would have preferred that he really had run off with another…” "You can stop.“ I grab his hand, knowing he needs support. "Jake, it wasn’t your fault. Nothing about what happened. ” “As a result of that, I got too much into the world of hacking, investigating what had happened. I came across a long list of important people on his hard drive. It was hard to put it back together. ” “And you decided to continue with his work.” “Bad guys never sleep.” At least the man wasn’t a criminal. Jake had a good reference and that’s why he’s so cautious. He knows what can happen if you run into the wrong people, what can happen if you’re not careful. “My mother wanted me to find my family” he continues, his gaze penetrating me “and that’s why it’s so important to me to find Hannah. I can’t lose anyone else. “ Out of an impulse, I hug him. I want to break this distance between the two of us. I want him to know that he is not alone, that I’m with him. For now I’ll wait until one day, he can break the next barrier. He ends up hugging me, tightly. It’s a hug that neither of us had had for a long time. And I’m glad for it. ————————————————————————————- *Jake POV* I offer to wash the dishes, preventing her from refusing. I had stopped her by placing a hand on her face pulling her away from me, while she moved her arms to catch them. She deserved my help for everything she did for me. I was also relieved that I had told her about my past. It was a weight that had been lifted from me. The memory didn’t hurt so much anymore. “No, I won’t be able to go” she leans on the furniture talking on the cell phone, while I finish washing her plate. I arch an eyebrow, curious “I have to take care of my grandfather, he’s not feeling well.” “Wha-” She raises her hand as if to tell me to keep quiet. MC is the one in charge in her house, I can’t do anything. “Yes… Yes,” she nods as she answers the short words. “Okay, half my salary this month, I understand.” I almost dropped the glass when I heard it, what does it do? "Tomorrow I’ll go and buy the coffee,” she says resignedly. The delivery girl again. “Goodbye…” she hangs up and she looks at me, placing her hands on her hips “I’m staying here with you.“ "MC-” “No.” “You don’t have to-” “Ssshhh.” she jokingly places a finger in my mouth to make me shut up. I furrowed my brows. “Don’t worry, I don’t mind if they take away half, my dear grandfather is much more important at this moment and I shouldn’t leave him alone.” I stopped scrubbing, continuing to glare at her slightly. "You’re not going to change your mind even if I refuse, are you?” I lean against the sink, looking at her with disapproval. She smirks playing with the mobile in her hands, then she pats me on my shoulder. “Tonight we have a movie session, so get ready.” “MC, I can’t just go out like that.” "Who said we’re going out?” Her expression is full of happiness. My heart beats too fast to see her "You can put on your hacker stuff while I look for something to entertain us with tonight to laugh, drama over for today.” I give up. I am too weak with her. I spend the afternoon setting up the cameras from a distance, seeing if they work well.Although I promised that she would not appear on cameras, she does appear in one preparing the room for tonight. Dancing. She’s wearing headphones. I turn the volume up a little so I can hear it. She can hardly sing because she can’t stop laughing at how happy she is. They are completely ridiculous and meaningless steps, but she feels happy. I watch as she picks up the television remote and uses it as a microphone. I lets out a laugh. How bad she does. And yet, I like it. “Never show up to a singing contest, MC” I joked, switching cameras, checking the next one. It definitely was movie night. There was a large bowl of popcorn on the coffee table and some drinks.MC looks at me proud of her work after having placed cushions on the floor as a bed. "What is all this?“ I ask, avoiding laughing. "Well, I want to give you a night that you can’t forget,” she walks closer to me, with her arms behind her back. “And like I said, let’s see something to laugh about. You’re gonna find out my dark teenage secret.” "What kind of movie are you going to put me?” “This one.” She pulls out the entire ‘The Twilight Saga’ collection and I groan. “I can’t believe it…” She laughs preparing the first film. I sit on the floor pouting. Where is the government chasing you when you need it? I don’t get it… I just don’t get it, was this what teenage girls liked? “Please tell me you didn’t like Edward when you were a teenager…” I begged her, taking a popcorn. “Well… I wasn’t on 'Team Edward’ for nothing.” I know she’s kidding. I have her well covered. "I just don’t get it.“ I point at the screen, almost disgusted. "This guy tells her to stay away from him. He stays away from her for a while because he tells her he’s dangerous. Then he approaches her. He interrupts her intimacy to see her sleep. In the second movie he leaves her when he hasn’t even done anything wrong. But when he finds everything fixed, as if he hadn’t even hurt her by leaving her, what kind of teenager dreams of this? ” MC looks at me for a moment, then looks away blushing. "My goodness, I think I have a type…” I hear her whisper. I look at her confused, not understanding. Got it, there are still things that I don’t know about her behavior or what she says. Either that or I’m really getting old for not understanding her. MC ends up asleep, laying her head on my lap.I forget the movie entirely to watch her sleep. I lift my hand, wanting to move it away from me and into a better position, but she settles even more into my lap. I sigh, looking at her peaceful face. Instead of pulling her away, I wrap the blanket around her better and decide to caress her cheek gently. Smile. This is fine… isn’t it? This feeling of peace and not feeling persecuted… It’s what I want. But not just for me. I will do my best so that MC can take her life back when all this is over. I swear. ————————————————————————————- *MC POV* I wake up with the sun bothering my face. Something missing here. “Jake?” I sit up, rubbing my eyes. I’m alone in the living room and everything is tidy.A feeling of loneliness washes over me completely. Has he already left? “Has he left without saying goodbye?” I ask myself, covering myself with the blanket. <<No… He wouldn't… right? >> With resignation I get up from the ground, sad. I would have liked so much to say goodbye. I decide to go to my room to get ready for another day at work. Well, it was fun while it lasted. I open the door and my eyes go wide as I see a dark figure sitting in my chair. "Good morning, MC,” Jake turns and greets me, the computer screen displaying the different areas of the house. “I didn’t want to wake you up, so I came here to work. ” I avoid jumping to hug him because he hasn’t left. I want to keep my composure and don’t think he has upset me. "Did I fall asleep?” I ask embarrassed. “Just a little” he lets out a soft, pleasant laugh in my ear. “And I wanted to have fun watching movies with you… ” “About the movie… I saw it all” he blushes, as if he’s embarrassed that I knows. “And you liked it?” "No” I laugh. “But I didn’t saw much the fourth and I don’t like to leave things unfinished.” "How come you didn’t saw it if you were awake?” “There was… Something else much more interesting.” he turns back to the computer. Even though he doesn’t see me, I give his a small smile. “You should hurry up and prepare yourself, you don’t want to be late.” The work! If I’m late, they’ll be even angrier. I grab everything I need in a hurry, making a lot of noise in the room. Sorry Jake! "Another thing” I stop to look at him when he catches my eye, he turns back to face me “I’m leaving tonight.” “Oh…okay.” I unintentionally sound sad. Shit… “After dinner.” I can see a gleam of excitement in his eyes for having said it. My heart is beating fast “I wouldn’t want to leave without saying goodbye… And I don’t want you to worry if I leave without eating something. “ Wait a minute… This one wants me to make him dinner. In the end, he decided me to taking care of him, huh? "Then I’ll think of something you can take with you later in case you get hungry the next day,” I say, closing the closet, with all the clothes ready, “You’ll see! A banquet worthy of a farewell. ” "I don’t need much either.“ "I told you: LIKE THE HILTON HOTEL!” I exclaim aloud, so that he stops denying himself. He rolls his eyes, then shrugs in surrender to me. We laughed at the same time, creating quite a cozy atmosphere for me. Chapter 4 (And yes, this time the last one XD) soon
😭😭∼the backstories here∼ MC’s story was really sad🥺 but I do hope that she’ll come to terms with it eventually as well🥺💖∼ and I love that Jake talked about his past too! I’m sure it would have him feel relieved, even just a bit, to know someone he can trust with it, after all those years❤️…
Well also, that little prankster Jake soo adoorable, ehem xD! [that song tho👀 unbelievable, Jake!😩]
[oh and yes I’ve read the second chapter with the teasing MC xD ∼i saved it to read offline since I wasn’t sure when I could go read it online👀
Jake the entire time like:
xD
And oh my, that tattoo, I’d love to see 😍🤭😌∼]
Jake preferring the government than watch the movie series tho, xDD∼ on a weirdly different situation, I imagine the agents would just grab some popcorn themselves and Jake would just sit there super annoyed, complaining, aren’t you supposed to arrest me?!? and they would just be like, shhh, it’s starting, gesturing to the movie onscreen 😂
My gosh, why is he so oblivious 😩😩😂
It’s really a touching thought tho, when MC has fallen asleep🥺💖 I am rooting for you two!!😩🥰😌
PS: “i want to give you a night that you can’t forget” ∼well……this be sendin’ some thoughts to my head tho👀😩😎∼ was that intentional😂
Over time she will be able to heal more wounds that she still have 😌 and that will be if she manages to save Hannah 😊 …. Let’s hope that if we really achieve it xD
Of course he was going to talk about his past, I really like to imagine that they have a "give and take” relationship between the two of them 🤭 if she’s honest, so is he, hehe.
I like to imagine that Jake wasn’t always a good boy 😆 and that’s where his traumas with the song would come from 😂😂
All chapters are completely safe 👀✨👍MC takes advantage of knowing that he is in front of him and doesn’t have to write to him to make him nervous 😏 see him live and direct nervous is so funny for her.
YES!!! I love to imagine that he can’t control himself because it’s the first time that he falls in love with and hence his nerves lose him 😂
I will try to keep practicing drawing him with the tattoo until it is perfect 💖
Police officers want to see 'Twilight’ Jake, get it 😂😂
Jake has a hard time seeing the signs, he has to tell him everything directly 😅
The poor MC fell asleep with excitement and Jake got emotional inside 😊 because he saw her cute sleeping with him 🥺
Now that I read the sentence again, yes, I see that it has a double meaning and that was never my intention 🤣 I missed the chance to make Jake think badly, dammit 🤣🤣
Well i hope that 😌✨ and all the revelations that will come out from all of this so nearing now😩😬
I love it when the dynamic is like that🤭💖 ∼I don't mind it too much because I understand his situation and all, but he can be way secretive sometimes 👀
Of course xDD ∼but oh my, it comes back to haunt him😅
Tbh, she was kinda pretty nervous as well 🤭
xDD yes that must be their reason😆 it didn't cross my mind😂
The title looks really fitting in that moment😌
Alright I see😅 so instead of him it got me to almost think that instead😅😅💀
