steven's looking at her expectantly , almost as if he's waiting to hear some punchline or another excuse as to why they shouldn't give this a shot . " well , i'm not going anywhere . " he shrugs , not seeing the problem so long as they both work for it . " and i don't know about you but i sure as shit ain't letting our friendship get in the way of what may or may not be the greatest fucking adventure of our lives . "

you just mean so much to me . i don't want to ruin our friendship . , @paperlore

haley 🦋 james -> for every beacon of light in the universe, there is a pit of darkness. we must fight to keep that darkness from overwhelming us.

the bastard scott feels compelled to crack a joke, as if to restore the balance, considering it's usually him that's moody and speaks in literary quotes, while @paperlore teases him and reminds him not to take life or himself so seriously. it was then that he realized the meta irony of it all:

haley was the beacon of light lucas looked to in times of existential disorientation, and this was his chance to return the favor.

he pulls her in by the shoulder, a smug smile tugging at his lips as they walked down the river docks, night breeze being the honorary witness to their unfaltering bond, ❝ that's very inhabitant of carcosa of you, hales. ambrose bierce would be proud ― but you do know i'm here for you, if the darkness ever gets to be too much to bear, right? just because you can doesn't mean you have to light the shadows away all on your own. as adorable and quirky as you may be. ❞

forever with @paperlore used to sound so easy . back when they were just kids in love with not a care in the world . it was a perfect plan for the future that he was ready for . but then they'd spent more time together , in a relationship , and reality started setting in . he knows he promised her that he would never break her heart but when was ever a good time to man up and do the right thing for both of them ?

" you promised me forever . "

" tay . . . " steven lets out a breath , moving to sit down in front of her . tears are forming in his eyes , all of this built up emotion within him spilling to the surface . he loves her with everything in him and although it's been years since they've been a couple , it still hurts all the same . " i want that forever with you . but don't you see how toxic we are for each other when we're actually together ? i never feel like i'm on solid ground when i'm in a relationship with you . i never feel . . . in control . i'm not saying that to hurt you or . . . or to diminish what we have together — our love . because we can be something great together . we can . you know that and i know that . but until we fix whatever the hell that makes us toxic , that kind of forever won't work . i'm willing to work for it , tay . " he promises , " are you ? "

not knowing where they stand is the most them thing ever , steven decides . always in this back and forth , on - again - off - again bullshit that he's growing tired of . he loves taylor jewel . that much he knows is true . it's the only thing he's ever been sure of . but when they're with each other ? like really with each other ? he finds it toxic as hell . and she's not there for him in a way that he needs . in a way that he is for her .

" whatever happens , just know that i love you . "

lips part as if to say something but nothing comes out as his gaze locks on @paperlore . eyes squint ever so slightly , taking a step closer to his ex - girlfriend . she still drives him crazy and he wonders if she knows that . he wonders if that's why she does it . " come on , tay . you can't just say shit like that and expect me not to want to kiss you . "

@paperlore sent a letter to esme cullen: ‘‘ i… i don’t know how to fix this. ’’

prompt: more emotional prompts.

When those words tumble out Rosalie's mouth, Esme's answer ❝ that's alright, Rosalie, ❞ doesn't make itself wait, and while she pronounces them she places her paintbrush on the table there, next to the paint-splattered palette, and the stands up from her stool, walking towards Rosalie with a small, sweet smile and open arms - a tacit invite for a hug. ❝ We can fix this together, ❞ a pause, then Esme adds, softly: ❝ come, let's sit here. Can you tell me what happened ? ❞

❛ do you ever wonder what it would be like if things were different between us? ❜ / hannah @ logan (hear me out but an au)

 ❛❛ W-WHAT ? ❜❜ a nervous chuckle pushed past chapped lips, hannah's question lingering between them while a brief silence settled in. it was something he'd thought about more than he ever wanted to admit out loud but she never seemed interested in anything like that; at least, not with him. in fact, if it wasn't just the two of them occupying the space at the moment, logan would've likely thought she was talking to someone else.  ❛❛ i'm guessing different means more than platonic, or am i totally off here ? ❜❜ it wasn't that he lacked confidence but he wanted to ensure that he was on the same page prior to moving that particular conversation along.
