@lsdambitions sent: “   May I please get a crumb of affection? ”

It wasn't Lilith's fault that Saylor was in a bad mood. Usually she was pretty cheerful, an upbeat girl albeit one with a short temper. A big personality to make up for her small height. Today, she'd simply woken up on the wrong side of the bed and decided to make it everyone's problem.

Sitting beside Lilith, Saylor scrolls through the endless titles available on Netflix. None of them are catching her interest, and the coffee on the table next to her is getting cold. Only when Lilith speaks first does the blonde give her her attention, a smile finally taking shape on her lips despite her efforts to stave it off.

❝ A crumb of affection? Aw. That sounds so pathetically sad, ❞ she laughs, dropping the remote onto the cushion before climbing over and plopping herself down in Lilith's lap. She cups her face, smoothing her thumbs over her cheeks, and plants a big kiss right on her lips.

 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐢𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐡𝐢𝐦 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭. atlas' eyes flit to ambrose and saylor, sitting on the other couch, engaged in conversation. his gaze returns to lilith, and he gives her a slight shrug of his shoulders. ❝i can't help it ── you look really pretty right now.❞

 she always looks beautiful to him, but right now, he can't seem to take his attention away from her with no makeup, dressed down in his shirt and a pair of shorts, she's perfect.

 sitting up, atlas tugs her closer, his arms wrapping around her waist. ❝did you wear my shirt for any particular reason?❞ he asks, his fingers slowly sliding beneath the hem so they can graze along her stomach. ❝you know how much i like it.❞

@lsdambitions asked: ❝I’m so proud of you, you know that?❞

 𝐰𝐞𝐥𝐥, 𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐝𝐧’𝐭 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭… atlas and lilith had been spending the entire day together. today would’ve been his sister’s birthday. while he was going to try and ignore it and distract himself with work, lilith remained by his side all day. they talked about addison for a while, reminiscing on memories they shared with her. sometimes, the knowledge that he isn’t alone in his grief is the reminder he needs.

 he’s always been grateful for lilith, and he’s sure if ambrose and saylor weren’t busy with prior commitments, they’d also be here showering him with love.

 his grip around lilith’s waist tightens, and tears threaten to spill from his eyes at her words. they’ve been lying on his bed, snuggling, and watching movies for four or more hours.

 ❝fuck, i’ve been doing good. don’t make me cry now, lil.❞ he says, pressing a kiss to the top of her head. ❝you know i’m proud of you too.❞ there’s no doubt their friend group has been through so much, but they came out on top and became more successful than any of them could’ve ever imagined.

 atlas’ hand gently caresses her side as he kisses her cheek. ❝thank you for today lil. i’m so lucky to have you.❝

@lsdambitions asked: ❝you're the one who started flirting, not me.❞

"WE CONSTANTLY FLIRT EVERY TIME WE MEET BUT IT'S NEVER GONE ANYWHERE"

 of course, lilith knew precisely when to enact her revenge. the second atlas hit the ❛go live❜ button, she began flooding his phone with less than pg texts and images, resulting in a challenging three-hour stream.

 ❝that might be true,❞ atlas says, raising an eyebrow at her. his gaze sweeps down the length of her body. ❝i ended stream early because of you, lil.❞ fully entering the room, he slowly closes the door. as soon as he hears the quiet ❛click,❜ he approaches her.

 leaning down, his hand cups her cheek, thumb gently stroking her bottom lip . ❝i hope they weren't empty promises.❞

@lsdambitions asked: ❝does it ever get tiring, being so beautiful?❞

"WE CONSTANTLY FLIRT EVERY TIME WE MEET BUT IT'S NEVER GONE ANYWHERE"

 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐢𝐧 𝐚𝐭𝐥𝐚𝐬' 𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐦𝐢𝐝-𝐚𝐢𝐫 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐥𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐬. slowly, he places it on his plate. a bewildered expression forms on his face as he stares at her. he usually wouldn’t be phased by such a compliment from her or any of his friends, for that matter. but this one? it’s entirely out of the blue. leaning back in his chair, he continues to gaze at her as his arms fold across his chest. she’s definitely sucking up.

 playing along, he sighs dramatically, ❝it’s exhausting actually. like, fuck me... having to look this good all the time.❞ he shakes his head. ❝sometimes i wish i just looked like an ugly troll living under a bridge.” he’s been trying to hide a smile this entire time, he’s sure his cheeks are flushed red from the attempt to contain himself. ❝okay lil, the jig is up.❞ he laughs, his foot gently nudges hers beneath the table. ❝what do you want?❞

@lsdambitions asked: stop running! just let me love you!

PROMPTS FOR PLAYFUL AFFECTION

 𝐚𝐭𝐥𝐚𝐬' 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐩𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐨 𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐠𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐚𝐭 𝐥𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐡. his pace slows, causing his best friend to close the distance between them. he urges himself to run faster.

 after too many drinks at the club, the two abandoned ambrose and saylor for a drunken stroll. with a sudden burst of energy, the casual walk turned into an impromptu game of tag as atlas tapped lilith on the shoulder, yelled, ❛you're it!❜ and bolted down the street.

 lilith yells out to him, and his pace slows to a stop. he squats down, his hands bracing on his knees, and begins breathing deeply. ❝okay, okay, c'mere,❞ he finally says, wrapping an arm around her when he straightens. ❝ready to go home? i think i might puke.❞

  a bright blue bag containing jolly rancher gummies catch his eye, his favorite sweet treat. reaching for the candy, he brings the bag to his mouth and attempts to tear it open with his teeth. of course, he'll buy them, but he wants them now. when the package rips open, a satisfied grin spreads across his face as he holds it above his face, he tilts his head back, allowing several to fall into his mouth.

  when lilith finally turns back to look at him, he doesn't miss her astonished expression before she speaks. ❝what?❞ atlas asks, mouth full of jolly ranchers. ❝it's not that weird, i'm paying for them, they're mine.❞
