Celebration for @alexanderleeofficial @ethancollinsfan @ethancollinz for finishing their fics :D. Finally, for @alexanderleeofficial my dad.
Favourite Color. Enjoyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy <3 The moonlight spilled across the hill like water — soft, glowing silver brushing over the tips of the grass and the folds of Xander’s hoodie. The night was hushed, peaceful, but not for Xander. He sat with his knees drawn up, sleeves pulled over his hands, pressed close to his chest. The wind tugged at his hair, cool and soft. He should’ve felt calm. He should’ve felt okay. But he didn’t. Because Ethan was staring at him. Not smiling. Not frowning either. Just... watching. Quiet. Sharp-eyed. Still. Xander could feel the weight of that gaze like a stone pressing against his ribs. And the longer it lasted, the smaller he felt. Despite being much bigger and much stronger than him he still felt conscious with Ethan’s gaze on him. His mind raced through every possibility: Did he say too much earlier? Was he being annoying? Should he have dressed differently? Had he ruined the mood somehow? He looked down at his hands. Tucked them in tighter. I shouldn’t have come. He’s probably wondering why I’m even here. “I can go,” Xander said suddenly, voice small. “If I’m making it weird or… if I’m being too much—” Ethan blinked, startled. “What?” Xander laughed, awkwardly. “It’s okay. I get it. I just... you’ve been staring at me like I said something wrong and—” “You didn’t,” Ethan said, gently but firmly. Xander hesitated. “Then what is it?” Ethan was quiet for a second too long. Because the truth—the real truth—was clawing at the edges of his thoughts. I want you. Oh my fucking god your hair is so fluffy i want to bury my face in it so bad. How are you real and here and not already someone else's? But he didn’t say that. He couldn’t. Instead, he softened his voice and said, “I was just… thinking. You’re not too much. You’re not a burden.” Xander looked at him, startled. Ethan’s expression was still serious, but there was warmth beneath it now. Steady. Sure. “I like that you’re here,” he added. “I like when you talk too much. Or when you get quiet like this. You don’t have to worry about being anything else.” Xander blinked, then lowered his eyes quickly, cheeks flushing. “…Oh.” Ethan gave a small smile. Xander shifted closer, just a little, like he wasn’t sure if he was allowed to. Ethan didn’t move away. If anything, he leaned in too, until their shoulders touched faintly. The silence returned — but this time it was gentler. Like the space between them had softened. Xander rested his chin on his knees and dared to glance sideways. Ethan’s eyes were still on him. But the look wasn’t cold anymore. And he didn’t know that behind those eyes, Ethan was still thinking: Mine. All mine. Don’t leave. Stay a little longer. Then Ethan saw it — just for a second. The way Xander’s eyes caught the moonlight. How they shimmered, just barely, like something soft had loosened in his chest. Like the reassurance had been enough to let a little light back in. They twinkled — not brightly, but beautifully. And Ethan’s breath caught. Blue’s my favorite colour, he thought, eyes lingering on him. Yeah. Definitely now.
Hey rb if you love Zeyn_Syre

Celebration for @alexanderleeofficial @ethancollinsfan @ethancollinz for finishing their fics :D. Second one for @ethancollinsfan THIS IS PART 2
Warning: -NSFW (?) -Bad -Kissingggggg Drunk at the bar. Enjoyyy <3
Later, in the quiet of the villa… The air was thick with tension, anticipation humming like static. Xander’s jacket hit the floor first. Ethan’s fingers found their way to his shirt, undoing buttons with deliberate slowness as Xander watched, utterly captivated. There were kisses, long and hungry. There was laughter—quiet and breathless—and whispered things like “you’re beautiful” and “I’ve wanted this since the moment I saw you.” And then, intimacy: slow, intense, warm. Hands exploring, eyes locked, heartbeats crashing into one another like waves. The bed creaked loudly, echoing the large and empty villa. The air was thick with desire and need. The sound of Ethan’s moans and Xander’s grunts and groans probably woke up the neighbors. He did not go easy on Ethan. (giggling rn XDD) After that, they lay tangled in satin sheets, chest to chest, the city lights spilling into the room. Xander sighed contentedly, resting his head on Ethan’s shoulder. “I’m gonna marry you,” he mumbled sleepily. Ethan snorted, fingers carding through his hair. “You’re too drunk to be thinking straight.” “I am for your information..” Xander pouted playfully. Ethan didn’t say anything else. But he smiled into Xander’s hair and held him a little closer. Xander’s back was like a canvas with Ethan’s nails (oooh girl got those nails done and everything~) as the painter. His back was filled with scratches, yes it stung, but Xander really liked the pain. It reminded him of the times they’ve spent together. Ethan was covered in bruises where Xander’s large hands gripped on his soft flesh and bite marks. Lots of them. His backside was sore, though—very sore. It felt like something ripped. He was exhausted but he had the time of his life. No regrets. (you will later babe, in another universe where you have kids.) Overall, it was a peaceful night for the two (not the neighbors though *chuckles* not the neighbors.) Well peaceful until the next morning where Ethan can’t walk
Celebration for @alexanderleeofficial @ethancollinsfan @ethancollinz for finishing their fics :D. Second one for @ethancollinsfan THIS IS PART 1
Warning: -NSFW (?) -Bad -Kissingggggg Drunk at the bar. Enjoyyy <3 The club pulsed with bass-heavy music and neon lighting, turning shadows into flickers of gold and violet. The VIP section of Champagne Spiral was roped off, but that didn’t stop Xander from leaning over the edge of his booth like a lovesick teenager spotting a soulmate in the crowd. And that soulmate was Ethan. Ethan stood by the bar, black button-up shirt clinging just right, sleeves rolled up to reveal lean forearms. He looked out of place in the best way—cool, quiet, eyes sharp under messy dark hair. While everyone else danced or screamed over the music, Ethan simply sipped his drink and watched the chaos around him with a small, unreadable smile. Xander blinked. His drink almost spilled in his hand. “Oh,” he said, mostly to himself, lips parting. “Who...?” “Don’t fall in love again,” The bartender warned from beside him, smirking. “Too late,” Xander whispered, already climbing out of the booth. By the time he made it to Ethan, he was tipsy—very tipsy—but still smooth enough to flash his best smile and lean on the bar like he definitely hadn’t just almost tripped over a stool. “Hi there, handsome,” Xander said. “Are you real, or did I just imagine you because I drink expensive tequila?” Ethan arched a brow, clearly amused. “You’re drunk.” “I’m charmed,” Xander corrected, placing a hand dramatically on his chest. “Drunk and charmed. Dangerous combo.” Ethan chuckled softly, and something about the sound sent sparks through Xander’s entire body. It was low and warm, and the way he looked at Xander—like he was both impressed and entertained—made Xander want to lean in closer. “You always hit on strangers in clubs?” Ethan asked, swirling the ice in his glass. “Only the ones who make me feel like my heart just tripped over its own feet.” Xander wobbled slightly. “Also, you smell really good.” Ethan took a slow sip of his drink, eyes twinkling. “And you smell like a very expensive regret.” “I like you,” Xander grinned, leaning in even more. “Like, a lot.” “I can tell.” Somehow, the conversation didn’t end. Xander kept talking—flirting in that intoxicating, chaotic way—and Ethan listened, smiling, occasionally tossing back a witty remark that only made Xander more obsessed. It was a strange chemistry: Xander, all glitter and impulse, and Ethan, steady and amused, watching him with a gaze that saw everything. Eventually, the noise blurred. The lights dimmed. And before you know it. They kissed. It was sudden, hot, a little clumsy from the alcohol—but real. Xander’s hand tangled in Ethan’s hair, and Ethan kissed back like he was meant to. Like he’d been waiting. When they pulled apart, both breathless, Xander stared at him with wide, dazzled eyes. “My place” he said, voice low and eager. “Come with me.” Ethan tilted his head. “You sure?” “I’ve never been more sure of anything in my whole glittery, over-dramatic life.” Ethan smiled again—soft, secretive—and took his hand.
WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
i finished the second celebration thingy for @ethancollinsfan but it won't let me POSTTTT.
Celebration for @alexanderleeofficial @ethancollinsfan @ethancollinz for finishing their fics :D. First one for @ethancollinz (Kilmer)
Slumber party with the gang. (This fic is where Mikey and Ace are alive btw ^^) Enjoyyy <3 ______________________________________________________________ The Lee villa was big—ridiculously big but it IS very posh and beautiful and you can actually understand the purpose of life here. Glass walls let in moonlight, there was a fireplace that crackled with orange flames, while the living room was scattered with blankets, pillows, and snack trays. It looked less like a millionaire’s home and more like a chaotic pillow kingdom. And right now, it was filled with the sounds of laughter, arguing over board games, and the gentle hum of a rom-com playing in the background. Ethan sat cross-legged on the oversized couch, his hair messy from Ace trying to “style” it earlier. He had a stoic expression as he watched Michael and Blake wrestle over the last slice of pizza. Despite the chaos, his eyes kept flickering toward Xander, who was walking back into the room with a tray of steaming hot chocolate—marshmallows stacked like architectural art. “Were you bored or something? Or are you just trying to hide that you actually poisoned these?” Ethan said dryly as Xander handed him a mug. Xander beamed, eyes shining with mischief and affection. “Only with love~” “You’re lucky I’m thirsty,” Ethan muttered, but he took the mug anyway, brushing fingers with Xander’s. His cheeks turned the faintest shade of pink. Michael, curled up on a beanbag nearby, grinned over his cup. “You two are disgustingly cute. It’s upsetting.” “Disgusting is you trying to rap Taylor Swift earlier,” Blake said from his blanket fort throne. “I’m still emotionally recovering.” “Still better than Ace setting popcorn on fire.” “That was one time!” Ace yelped as she looked up from the mess of stickers she was organizing, dramatically throwing a cushion at Blake. Amid the chaos, Xander plopped down beside Ethan, wrapping long arms around him and nuzzling into his neck. Ethan stiffened for a split second—he always did—but then leaned into him with a soft sigh. “You’re warm,” Xander mumbled, already half-asleep. “You’re heavy,” Ethan muttered, but his hand moved to play with Xander’s hair almost automatically. Michael leaned over to whisper to Blake, “Xander looks all cute and harmless now, but remember when he stared down that guy who bumped into Ethan at the café? I thought that man was gonna cry.” “Right?” Blake whispered back. “Sweet on the outside, demon on the inside. It's adorable!” They both turned back to see Xander sleepily kissing Ethan’s jaw, eyes fluttering shut like a content cat. Content massive cat. Ethan didn’t even react, just sipped his cocoa with a deadpan face and a glowing ear. Later, they all ended up tangled in blankets on the massive circular bed in the guest room, because apparently no one wanted to sleep alone. Ace snored with her limbs all over the place (that did not sound right..). Michael talked in his sleep about Ethan (his super duper cool gay uncle) and.. Micah-? Blake somehow took all the pillows. And in the middle of it all, Xander was curled around Ethan protectively, despite being taller—and the big spoon, always. Ethan cracked an eye open in the dark, hearing the soft rhythm of Xander’s breathing. His arm was asleep. He could barely move. Xander was probably drooling a little on his shoulder- wait no. He is, this is disgusting. And yet... Ethan still smiled. It was ridiculous (and disgusting babe). But it was perfect.

This does not relate but is it only me who thought Xander was a woman at the beginning and after realizing it was him immediately starts admiring his hair? Oh only me?.. I'll go back to my corner.. 😔

Astara was always the quiet one — the middle child of a deeply broken home. She was kept away by her father but she saw everything in her problematic household but never dared to speak up, afraid of what might happen. She knew something was wrong with their father — his temper, his possessiveness, the way their mother flinched when his voice rose. But fear, fear made her hold back.
By the time Astara turned ten, she was completely out of the picture. No one knew where she came from. Nobody in her household spoke about her. It was like she was a side piece (technically she is but whatever lmao). She wasn’t locked away, nor was she taken. She just went unnoticed. The day Evelyn left, she stood at the back, blending in with the shadows, watching her every movement. She watched Evelyn lie to Micah. Saying that she was going to be back. She was going to come back for him. “What about me?” She thought. She loved her siblings till the end and would do anything for them, yes but…it’s hurts her seeing that she’s being forgotten by her own siblings.So she ran off after Evelyn. Calling out her name. But Eve didn’t even stop and turn to look at her. She js kept on going. The longer Astara ran, the distance between her and Eve felt longer. When she finally stopped, it was too late to go back. She was lost. So she decided to keep on running, leaving Micah behind believing that he never noticed her anyways. She ran far far away not knowing that, Micah was looking for her. Seeking her comfort after their oldest sister left them. He remembered her. The only one that did. He remembered the times she took care of him when he was sick, when he was abused. She was taken out of the picture but Micah always found his way back to her. Micah was left scarred. The only sibling he came for comfort had also left him.
After many years that she’s spent years drifting between shelters and foster homes, faking names, lying about her age.Her first priority was never to find another family or friends.. The less people knew, the safer she felt. The past was a locked door, and she threw away the key not ever wanting to experience it ever again.. She never looked back. She never once thought of her past. She never thought that she was the one that hurt Micah.
