SURPRISE @ughfitz​ it was me who was your Secret Santa this whole time! It was so much fun getting to know you and chat these past few weeks and as you guessed very very accurately, your prompt of Pen Pals AU (friends to lovers) absolutely set my imagination on FIRE and I promptly wrote about three pages of notes when my assignment first came through. This has been such a fun prompt to write, (and am still writing, the last chapter is still in progress, which I wanted it all finished for today but December has been a crazy month and I am honestly about 2k away from finishing) thank you so much for coming up with this, I’m not sure I ever would have written it or come up with it on my own, so yeah, thank you, and I hope you enjoy! 

I will see you next Saturday for the next chapter!

(and yes the title is pulled from seven by Taylor Swift. It felt very appropriate given the circumstances)

Hello lovelies! I’m very excited about this chapter! You are in for a treat, I PROMISE! Expect much sweetness in every single sense of the word. I actually had planned for this chapter and the next to be just one chapter but this just ran away from me and suddenly what was supposed to only be the first half was nearly 4k long. Ah well, it just means I get to tease you all for another week! I will let you get to the reading! Enjoy!

I will see you next week when it’s Jemma’s birthday!

Well well well. I WONDER what Fitz could POSSIBLY have planned for this most momentous of days?? In all seriousness though ya’ll are gonna SHOUT AT ME. I’m prepared, I’m ready. I really wish I was sorry. I’m not. I’m really not. Without further adieu I will let you get to the reading and to the inevitable shouting, enjoy! ;)

SPOILERY LITTLE EXTRAS UNDER THE CUT

So, being the little romantic bean that Fitz is, I figured he would choose the flowers he sent to Jemma with VERY specific intentions. Cut to: me researching what flowers are in bloom in September and have romantic connotations. LUCKILY FOR ME sunflowers hit this all perfectly:

Sunflowers signify pure thoughts. It symbolizes adoration and dedication. It is symbolic of dedicated love.

LIKE HOW UTTERLY PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's been three years since Fitz and Jemma started writing each other letters, each finding solace in each others words and friendship, but all of that is about to be tested...

Hello hello and welcome to another chapter! We've jumped forward in time a wee bit, so hopefully the dynamic you'll see between the still pretty young FitzSimmons is much much closer than the last chapter. I honestly cannot tell you how much fun I had writing this story honestly. I cannot thank Racquel enough for that absolutely GLORIOUS prompt. I should say, before you go diving in that the domestic abuse themes are at their peak in this chapter (thank u Alistair for that) so please consider that before you go in head first. Anyway, I shall stop my usual ramblings and let you get to the reading!

I will see you all next week!
