    Summary

    Adam was always alone. He was never alone. Those strong, calm hands never left his side. But as long as they focused on him, it meant that no one else was getting hurt. He was less okay with that than he wished.

     

    Heavily inspired by another fic but you don't have to read it to get this one! You also don't really need to know good omens.

    Summary

    I watched her, my sleeping beauty. She had long dirty blond hair that was naturally brown, she bleached it once a month to keep it the way it looked. It was paired with her hazel eyes that made her perfect in every way. My sleeping beauty made all A’s in her classes, she never partied much, she didn’t drink or smoke, and she did everything according to the rules. She was my perfect girl. I did this. I watched her all the time, my time was spent watching her sleep and from time to time I liked to think about her. I would think about her insides. What they looked like.
    Her guts.
    Her blood.
    Her bones and how I could break them.
    I needed to keep her safe. No one else was willing to take care of her. I thought of everything.
    With me, she would never be hurt. I would keep my sleeping beauty safe from anything that could hurt her. Even if that was me.

    Summary

    Charles Leclerc is a 20-year-old struggling to get by. He works at a restaurant he loves, but the Owner... not so much. He meets two men, who immediately seem dangerous. Yet they were so sweet to him. They informed him that their boss, Max, had sent them to find a good server, Their previous ones lacking.

    Daniel, one of the men, knew at first glance that Charles was exactly what they needed for Max to be satisfied. Maybe in more ways than one.

    -----

    "Not really a victim, I would say. I think you are doing perfectly so far, Charles. No need to worry your pretty little head about it." He notes the way Charles blushes, and he can't help but think, 'oh, Max is just going to love you.'

    ____

    Or I am bad at summaries. Basically, Charles meets Max at the restaurant he works at and hits it off from there.

    Or, Mafia! Au/Sugar Baby! AU. Please read it's good so far I swear 😭😭

    Summary

    Maxwell Howler was a loser in every conceivable way. He was a man nearing his 30’s who worked a night job as a gas station clerk. The man had no family left to speak about, no friends, no one to come home to at the end of the day—not even a pet cat, a dog, or even a disgusting trimming. His life was one filled with loneliness, self-hatred, boredom, and a lot of instant ramen. That was until he met the creature he dubbed, “Kyle”. The creature that should have been the one to end his life, became the opposite. Instead of the bringer of death and destruction, it had become a beacon of life and hope.

    Summary

    For years, Collei has heard stories of mythical beings known as the Light-Bringers, deities made of the very light of the universe, and the Soul-Reigners, beings made of the very dark. Despite her belief in their existence, she doubts that she would ever meet a Light-Bringer.

    But when her older brother, Tighnari, falls ill and the medicine needed is rare and far between, rendering it so expensive it’s near unattainable, Collei takes up a high-paying job as a garden worker under the Lawrence Clan of Mondstadt.

    However, dark secrets and ancient grudges lie under the surface, an olden war between the Light-Bringers and the Soul-Reigners remains unfinished, and Collei is all but caught up in the middle of it.

    Summary

    This trip was meant to be a bonding experience for Link and his daughter, a chance for her to learn how to fend for herself in Hyrule and explore the vast world around her. The anticipation of adventure and the excitement of her new sword filled her with glee as they set out on their journey. However, the sudden turn of events brought an end to their happy trip.

    The weather had taken a turn for the worse. The rain poured down, and the wind howled, making it difficult to hear anything else. Yet, even in the midst of everything, Link couldn't shake the feeling that something was off.

    As the storm raged on, the cliffside above them began to crumble, and small rocks tumbled down. Link quickly turned to his daughter, fear evident in his eyes. He knew he had to act fast, cause as if in slow motion, part of the cliff gave out, and two massive boulders were headed straight towards her.

    In a split second decision, Link grabbed Mipha by the shoulders and threw her out of the rock's path, but in doing so, put himself in harm's way. As the boulders came crashing down, Link's heart pounded in his chest. He hoped his daughter was safe and would be able to find help.

    Summary

    When Rick and Michonne watched Judith walk onto the school bus, calling out a small "I love you!" before the doors closed behind her, they smiled, knowing their family had welcomed another good day. But merely hours later, they receive a call that shatters their world: while going back to the classroom after their time on the playground, someone had managed to kidnap Judith, and there was no trace of who took her and where she was now. Desperate to find their little girl, Rick and Michonne were determined to get to the bottom of this, even if that meant supporting each other and their son in the midst of their own breakdowns. They had to find her, because if they didn't, they'd crumble into pieces too small to put back together.

    “You said that it was important for me to be around children my age” Zoro answered and oh.

    Summary

    Anxiety

    It's like a weight on his chest, arms grabbing him from behind and pressing him against an inanimate object, a wave crushing him on the ocean floor. It's an invisible force that makes you gasp in hopes of getting more air in your lungs. It makes you pant and the air feel like there is no oxygen left, just this damp humid air that is never enough.

    In these moments Jake hopes someone would notice. Anyone.

    But he has locked his door, told everyone half an hour ago that he'd go take a nap and not to bother him for the next two hours. He was waved off by a mischievous smirk from Jay, implying that he'd give up their room for Jake to use for his private business this time. Little did they know his private business was far from what they imagined a guy in his early twenties would do when he got a room for himself. No, he was not jerking off. Instead he was sitting in front of his desk, shivering as he only just closed the window, leaning his head on his hands and trying so hard to just fucking breathe.

    Summary

    “Can I.. show you something?” Will’s voice echoes through Mike’s mind. He feels the question hit him like a bullet, and he nods without question. Yet, the thing is, Mike already knows. By God, he knows well. So as Will draws the rolled up painting out, he allows himself a moment to watch silently.

    What else was he supposed to do in the first place? Considering that, frankly, he had no clue what he would say, he was practically defenseless. The hot, sweaty van wasn’t helping either, as it seemed to be deathly silent minus them. Them. Mike and Will. Will and Mike. Mike thought about this for a minute, his hand absentmindedly reaching to gently take the painting from Will’s calloused hands. It was directed to him. It was for him. All of this was for him.

    This wasn’t for some stupid, teenage girl. Not this time, anyways.
