DRIPPING PEACHES.

When you're all alone & lonely In your midnight hour And you find that your soul, It has been up for sale. And you're getting to think about All the things that you done And you're getting to hate Just about everything

YARA.

she’d definitely been to events like this before, maybe just once or twice, but to her it was enough. squeezing her way in between people through the crowded area, yara walked in small, stiff steps, hoping to get out of the overly populated area before she began to regret coming there in the first place. her eyes lit up the moment she saw an empty spot no one was really standing at, making her way there, her mind probably worked faster than her feet because the next thing she knew, her whole face was in someone’s back. yara stepped back, frantically apologising, “i’m sorry, i’m so sorry, i just- i wanted-” she pointed to the area she was hoping to go to, “i don’t do well in crowded places, my brain overwrites itself,”

         a black, cotton hem grazed the soft skin of aska’s thighs, around half way down, and allowed the quiet breeze to sweep between her limbs and cool her skin to the point of goosebumps. the throngs of people did little to affect her mood, for it was easy to slip between crowds, relatively unnoticed, when no one TRULY knew what she looked like in the first place. it was only the brief and light pressure to her back that jarred aska, and even so, she could hardly find it in herself to allow her surprise to twist itself into something more irritated. ‘   you just wanted what, sweetheart?   ’  her pout, all in good fun, was intended to alleviate some of the brunette’s evident distress.  ‘   we’ve got some space here. you can relax. breathe.   ’

MEREDITH.

❛ ┆ —— ‘ ʏᴏᴜ ᴋɴᴏᴡ, ᴡʜᴇɴ ɪ'ᴍ ʙᴏʀᴇᴅ, ᴀʟʟ ɪ want to do is complain.      ’      meredith had found two things since becoming a faerie: she loved to piss people off because it was the sweetest taste in her mouth and a satisfying contentment for her own psyche, and the fact that she just enjoyed getting a rise out of anyone and everyone. it was some incessant need that she hadn’t had before, but she caved to the need every time.       ‘    it’s too bright. i don’t know who told the sun it was fine to shine this fucking hard when no one asked for it. it’s spring, not summer. and why has the rest of nature not gotten the memo that it’s spring?      ’

      ‘   it’s always the same with you, darling --- complaining about this and that. how BORING.   ’  the severity of her words meant nothing in the presence of the blonde. aska saw little reason to put up a front of any sorts around meredith -- mostly due to the fact that she would wish for her friend to grant her the same courtesy. it set her at ease; dry and effortless conversation that lacked any filters, that did not require the acquisition of a second skin for comfort. ‘   you would look good in sunglasses.  give nature a chance, yes? she can only do so much with how hard winter has been on her.   ’

VICTOR.

“YEAH BRO, I’m wearing clean underwear. I am sort of a grown up y’know. You don’t have to keep checking up on me… It’s unnecessary…” He trailed off before letting out a sigh at his brother’s next comment. “Yes, I’m showering regularly. Now I’m gonna hang up because I’m in the middle of the city and people are starting to look at me.” 

          ‘   CAREFUL.   ’  playful warning laced aska’s tone, the smile that stretched wide and flashed her pearly whites ruining any chance the skinwalker had at feigning seriousness. ‘   dirty talk like that could get a girl all hot and bothered.   ’

AVERY.

Avery took a drag from her vape, watching the smoke as she blew it out.  Turning it off, she walked into Daily Grind, getting her daily fix.  She didn’t work till later but coffee was a must.  “Fuck… I forgot my damn wallet…”

         ‘   and you remembered THAT?   ’     mahogany tresses uncurled their way from behind the shell of aska’s ear, spilling out into her line of sight and disrupting her view of the other’s vape. ‘   i understand CIGARETTES over coffee any day. but vape? no. no matter what flavour.   ’

IRELAND.

❛ ┆ —— ‘ ᴡᴀɪᴛ. ᴡᴀɪᴛ. ᴊᴜsᴛ ᴘᴀᴜsᴇ ғᴏʀ ᴛᴇɴ sᴇᴄᴏɴᴅs. i don’t know if i actually want to hear this story or not.      ’     waking up in a foreign bed had not been what the princess expected. she remembered studying for an upcoming exam, remembered getting distracted and going into the heart of downtown, and after that was a blur. straining her mind trying to remember was tiring and the brunette finally gave up.      ‘     okay, fine. tell me. what the fuck am i doing here?      ’

        deadpan, and bundled in blankets that smothered her slim frame in the morning heat, aska turned to address the bleary princess. ‘   we fucked.   ’ shoulders lifting in a halfhearted shrug, she flopped back onto the mattress, voice strained as her limbs spread wide in a stretch. ‘   no, we didn’t. you got, uh... shitfaced last night. we had a good time. you might have puked on the bus; i don’t quite remember.   ’

JONAH.

❛ ┆ —— ‘ ɪғ ɪ ᴅᴏɴ'ᴛ, ᴡʜᴏ ᴛʜᴇ ғᴜᴄᴋ ᴡɪʟʟ?      ’      be your own biggest supporter; that was the philosophy that he followed. brows knitting, the bartender kept a watchful eye over the young girl, lips curling in the barest of snarls.      ‘      joke’s on you SUNSHINE because i do, in fact, wear glasses. evidently turning all lupine didn’t fix my shitty eye sight. i did not get the scott mccall treatment. secondly, your problems are pretty deep set in the nonissue category, so forgive me if i don’t wanna tell you to fuck some old dude that doesn’t want you or your unfinished directionless art project.      ’

       ‘   don’t you have a fan club lurking around here somewhere?   ’  thin straps snapped to bird-like shoulders, stretched across the canyon of her collarbones; aska’s elbows met the sticky bar top as she sought the brunet’s gaze. ‘   i’m sure that’s quite the sight, but i’ll take your word for it. scott mccall? is he in your pack? and PLEASE, plenty of old dudes want my unfinished art project, but only one is getting what he desires. lucky boy, if i do say so myself.   ’

HALEY.

“So somebody left a sticky note in the suggestion box at work that said, ‘I bet you’re an animal in bed,’ and I don’t know who it was or who it was aimed at, but I think it’s hysterical.”

       ‘   that is... charming. and cowardly. if this person wants to have sex with you that much then surely they would make themselves known.   ’  aska’s hand waved dismissively, a wry smile curling her full lips. ‘   chivalry is six feet under.   ’

JONAH.

❛ ┆ —— ‘ ɪ ᴅᴇғɪɴɪᴛᴇʟʏ sʜᴏᴜʟᴅ ʜᴀᴠᴇ ʙᴇᴇɴ ᴀ ᴘsʏᴄʜ major in school. i could be getting paid hundreds of dollars an hour to listen to people’s problems and try to help them come to healthy solutions. instead, i’m getting a fiver soaked in beer residue and minimum wage.      ’ 

        ‘   you think too highly of yourself.   ’  rattling the iced contents of her glass, iridescent eyes begged for a refill. ‘   you have never offered me a healthy solution, and i certainly wouldn’t pay for your services when i could simply come here. this idea of yours is not feasible. and you would look shit in glasses.   ’
