need a part two! tag me pls! this was such a good readš
one thing about spencer reid? heās going to think a pretty girl flirting with him is ājust being niceā. every. single. time.
itās beginning to drive the rest of the bau crazy, the way their smartest member is so oblivious to your coquetry. every time you came to visit your brother, hotch, at his job, you made sure you wouldnāt leave until that boy was flushed a nice crimson red that would haunt him for the rest of the day. you knew who you were dealing with, and you were in it for the long haul.
youāve had a small thing for spencer ever since you first met him, shortly after he joined the team. you and your brother were really close growing up, so it wasnāt unusual for you to stop by after you finished up in your classroom for the day, usually flashing a bright smile and a pink box of donuts. the rest of the team viewed you as their little sister, too, but that small thing youāve had for spencer had blossomed into a full blown crush.
the members of your brotherās team have become a second family to the both of you, and you were quite aware of spencerās track record with women- or lack thereof. you couldnāt quite wrap your brain around the fact that nobodyās snatched him up yet, but you couldnāt complain. it was almost too easy to rile him up, to get him flustered, and you took pride in being the one to make him blush.
you made your way through the bullpen, stopping by to see your brother first. as he reached for the box of donuts, you slapped his hand away, causing him to roll his eyes.
āwhat? you didnāt stop to see boy genius first?ā he teased.
ānope,ā you replied, popping the p, ājust wanted to say hi first. iāve missed you!ā it had been a few weeks since you had last visited your brother and his teammates, and you had missed the feeling of camaraderie that they extended to you.
āiāve missed you too, kid,ā he responded, and after a minute or so of catch up, you saw your brotherās eyes wander above your head, looking out from the window in his office into the bullpen. your gaze followed his, and a smile grew on your face as you saw spencer rush to turn his head back to his desk, desperately hoping you didnāt catch him staring. but you did. you always do.
your brother let you go shortly thereafter, knowing of your very obvious feelings for the agent. plus, he knew nobody was getting a donut until you went and talked to him. you made a point to reserve the privilege of the first pick for spencer only, much to the annoyed endearment of his coworkers.
āhi handsome!ā you chirped, setting down the box of donuts on his desk, your free hand coming to rest in his forearm. āfirst pick for the sweetest guy in the office,ā you crooned, batting your lashes as you hopped up to sit on his desk.
āy-you donāt have to give me first pick every time, you know,ā he muttered shyly, still reaching out to grab his favorite kind, ānot that i donāt appreciate it!ā he then rushed out, rambling in the adorable way only spencer can achieve, āi do appreciate it- i mean- youāre so sweet and you look gorgeous today-ā he pursed his lips, physically stopping himself from digging a deeper hole. his tomato red face with eyes that were squeezed shut were now turned to the ground.
you smirked. you were an expert at getting him flustered, sure, but he normally always had control over the things he said to you. your heart fluttered at the fact that he couldnāt help but tell you how gorgeous you looked, something heās never been confident enough to say.
you lifted his chin with two fingers, leaned in so your faces were inches apart, and in your most saccharine tone, replied, āthank you, handsome. you look nice too, is this a new sweater?ā you eyed the never before seen cream colored cable knit that adorned his broad chest. youād never been more thankful for fall weather until this very moment.
āit is, t-thank you for noticing,ā he stuttered out, completely frozen in his spot, his head not daring to move away from your touch.
āyouāre welcome,ā your lilted voice and the removal of your fingers on his face left him hot and cold at the same time. you caught him shuddering as you hopped off his desk and turned to grab the box of donuts, the one he chose earlier was nearly smushed between his hand and his desk, suffering the consequences of what you did to him. āiām going to go make the rest of the rounds. it was good to see you though, as always.ā you smiled before walking away.
you didnāt need to look back to know that he had immediately swiveled his chair in your direction the second you walked away, eyes locked on your retreating figure. check and mate.
you made your way through the rest of the team, receiving hugs from each one of them as they each emptied out the box, one by one. just like you made a point to start with spencer, you also made a point to end with penelope. she was your closest friend on the squad, and seeing her last meant ample gossip time in the privacy of her office.
after youād gushed to her about every single last detail of your conversation with spencer, you saw a lightbulb appear above penelopeās head.
āoh!ā she squealed, hands grabbing your wrist, āweāre all going out tonight, please come with us! i honestly think if you donāt make a move on him soon heās going to explode,ā you two giggled, but a knot was forming in the pit of your stomach.
āi donāt know, nelly,ā you said, your turn to be shy now as your gaze focused on her hands in yours. āitās been fun flirting with him, obviously, but what if thatās all he thinks this is? what if he wants nothing to do with me beyond that? iād rather be stuck in this limbo with him forever than get rejected and not be able to talk to him.ā
āoh hun,ā penelope muttered, āi donāt think itās humanly possible for him to reject you. spencer may be easily flustered, but the way he behaves when youāre around is completely unprecedented, even for him. heās crazy about you, i promise.ā
and with that, you found yourself squished between jj and penelope at the bar, eyes locked on the back of spencerās head as he ordered something from the bar. all the girls there tonight knew of your mission to finally make a move toward spencer, thanks to penelope. their giddiness made you feel like you were in grade school again, but you would be lying if you said that, plus the free drinks youāve been getting from the team tonight were instilling you with the exact same excitement.
youād managed to squeeze your way over to the bar, standing next to him and resting your hand on the small of his back.
āhey spencer,ā you said gently as he took a sip of his drink.
āhi! i didnāt know you were coming tonight,ā he shot you that gorgeous smile and you were a goner. you knew in that moment that if you didnāt do something soon, you also might explode.
āyeah, penelope convinced me with the allure of free drinks. couldnāt say no,ā you smiled, and you naturally stood taller after making him giggle.
a thick silence then fell over the two of you, the liquid courage youād both been consuming that night along with the fact that you were no longer in a professional setting allowed the both of you to turn toward each other, inching closer ever so slightly.
ālisten, spencer,ā you said lowly, āi know- i know i flirt with you a lot, and i just wanted to say-ā before you could finish, he cut you off.
āoh! oh no, you donāt- you donāt have to say anything, i get it. itās just flirting and thatās fine, thereās no need for a formal rejection, donāt feel like you have to let me down easy or anything,ā his rambling came out a bit slurred, and it dawned on you that youād underestimated how much he had to drink so far.
your eyes went wide and your jaw dropped, and you wondered if you heard him correctly. he thought you were just flirting? he really thought thatās all this was this whole time? your thought process was interrupted by the sight of his back now facing you, walking back to the table of detectives. it was then you realized in your state of shock, you never said anything back to him. your stomach dropped and you wondered if it was biologically possible for your heart to literally break into a million pieces inside your chest. after all this time, youād blown it with spencer reid.
penelope saw him walk back to the bar alone, and quickly clocked your expression from the other side of the bar. she shot you a quizzical look and you couldnāt bear to even think about what just happened. you simply turned, grabbed your bag, and walked out of the bar. you didnāt bother to say goodbye, too humiliated to go face the table with spencer there, but you knew they all cared about you too much to let you leave just like that.
as if she could read your mind, you heard the clicking of penelopeās heels approach you from behind, and you sighed. you slowly turned to face her, and her face softened seeing the mascara black tears that were now streaking down your face.
āoh honey, what happened?ā she asked, taking your hands.
you shook your head, more tears falling at a rapid pace. āitās just not going to happen, penelope. iāll be okay, donāt worry about me,ā you tried to downplay the situation as you saw your uber approaching, desperate to rid yourself of this night altogether.
āfirst of all, itās not possible for me to not worry about you. second of all, would you like me to come home with you? i donāt mind, if you want some company,ā penelope responded.
āno, thatās okay,ā you shook your head, āthank you though. youāre the best, but i just kind of want to be alone right now,ā you nearly whimpered, more tears falling off your jaw and hitting the ground.
āokay, iāll let your brother know where you went. text me when you get home, okay?ā penelope said as you went to get into the car.
āi will, thank you,ā you gave her the biggest smile you could muster, which, albeit, was barely an uptick of your top lip.
you rested your head against the window and shut your eyes. after so much time, you genuinely had no idea where to start with getting over spencer reid.
*starving victorian child*: please, sir? may i have some more?
(please work at your own pace and prioritize your physical and mental well-being over everything. this was fantastic and iām ecstatic to read more! please tag me in any updates)
See the Devil in I - Michael Myers x Reader
Summary: Dr. Loomis knew Michael was dangerous, but the day had come where Michael had to be let out on good behaviour. When Laurie was told she had a brother she never knew about that could be placed in her care if she consented, Laurieās roommate y/n decided to stay and live with Laurie and the notorious Michael Myers.
"Laurie Strode, are you aware why you're here today?" Asked a lawyer, formally.
The lawyer sat at a table in the centre of a white, plain, clean-looking room. On the lawyers left was a Smiths Grove Sanitarium doctor, and on his right sat famed killer, Michael Myers.
Michael sat there quiet as ever. Thick leather straps kept has arms and legs tight to the chair. Guards with batons lined the walls and door, watching and waiting for him to so much as lift a finger.
Two people sat across the table, one of which was Laurie.
"Yes I know why I'm here, it's kind of what we've been working towards." Laurie replied slightly incredulously.
"Yes I know, but it's a formality. I have to know that you know the situation, just so we can avoid any misconceptions or gaps in understanding."
It was then that the doctor took over, explaining things that Laurie already knew, as a 'formality'. "Laurie, over the last six weeks you've been coming here and meeting with your brother, Michael Myers. Over this period, there have been no incidents and no reports of Michael displaying violent behaviour. Now I know you knew this from the start, but we've now reached the point where if you feel ready and comfortable, Michael can move into house arrest and probation under your care as his only living relative, as you are of legal age."
"Now Laurie," the lawyer continued with a professional smile, "unless you have any objections, please sign here, here, and here, to complete your end of the process!"
With a deep breath, Laurie decided yes, she was really doing this and taking a known killer, and apparently brother, into her home. So she signed at each line with a speedy hand.
"Wonderful!" Grinned the lawyer, hurrying everything along. "Now! Ms l/n! As Laurie's housemate, you've decided to continue living with her with the addition of Mr Myers, correct?"
"Yes sir," replied y/n, suddenly unsure now that she'd actually met Michael. Well, 'met' wasn't really the word. They haven't been formally introduced yet - while Laurie met Michael over those six weeks, y/n never did. Now here they sat, and y/n could see Michael's cold stare, tense muscles, and quiet, dangerous demeanour.
"Are you aware of Mr. Myers past crimes of murder?"
"Yes sir." The dead eyes of a murder stared at her, how could she not?
"If you consent to living with Mr. Myers as Ms. Strode's housemate, just sign here."
And she signed.
-
A/N: ok! So that concludes the prologue! In this story, the Halloween films did take place, but not with Laurie, so she doesn't have a past with Michael - sorry for the confusion, but it works better for the story this way. Hope you're enjoying thus far, and feel free to comment any ideas for the story!
Hope you have a great day/night,

BWAHAHAHAHAAA
this. this right here, perfect addition to my post. literally just imagine Hermioneās bottomless bag from Harry Potter and there you go
In honor of my newest series, iāve decided to post a headcanon series to publish in between chapters so that yāall have something to read. Wonāt be directly related to the series but can be kept in mind while reading. If yāall have a specific prompt youād like to share, feel free to
Warnings: none, aside from a few foul language words, nothing to be concerned over
Random Quirks about the Boys
David:
* Cannot stand sweets, in any capacity, it hurts his teeth. Constantly thinks about cavities and diabetes even though he canāt get either. He just doesnāt like the flavor of sweet things, not even fruit. Marko once forced him to eat cotton candy and he tossed Marko off a cliff while struggling not to vomit.
* Knows everything there is to know about every metal band ever. Itās the only music he likes, with no variation, so he knows even the most underground bands. Even ones from out of state or other countries. And heāll bring it up randomly into conversations with the others having no idea what heās talking about. Max tries to learn to so David doesnāt feel isolated by it.
*Always the second to wake up at night. Sometimes the other boys will rotate between who wakes up first, itās never planned, it just happens like that. But without fail, David will always wake up second, itās weird and they donāt know how he does it. (Paul and Marko have tried multiple times to wake up at the same time and for some reason, it never works out and they always end up waking up first and third)
Marko
*This man has absolutely zero concept of personal space, it doesnāt even matter who heās with or standing next to, he will always be just a bit too close. Strangers, children, old people. Heās banned from wandering off on his own for this very reason bc Max thinks he draws too much attention. Star and Laddie both love it tho
*Has experimented with pretty much every media of art and has settled into cooking, clothing up-cycling and mural painting. His absolute worst attempt was knitting, he couldnāt get the hang of it like the old ladies on tv and ended up throwing on of the needles into Paulās eye
*Do not ask this man for anything if you need it. He will not have anything useful. No pens, gum, band-aids, tape, paper, snacks, drinks, hair ties, nothing. He will always have a needle and thread and a stapler if you need that though. He likes to click the stapler in his brothersā ears and Dwayne had to buy Marko a new one after he crushed it in his hands one time. Dwayne wasnāt even sorry about it which is why Marko held a grudge for months even after it was replaced.
Paul
*He gets so easily distracted that youāll have to redirect him at least three times every conversation. There is no other way. He will not notice most things without express direction and he wonāt try to either. Like, if itās important, you will let him know
*He takes the most time getting out the door when the boys go out. David has shirt hair, Marko has curly hair that just needs to be gelled, and Dwayne is just an asshole about it. Both Paul and Dwayneās hair is similarly cut and yet Dwayne never has trouble with his, and nothing pisses off Paul more
*Super dramatic, easily the most dramatic out of the four. He will over react to literally everything and is super expressive. He has a really loud sense of humor that only Star, Laddie and Marko can really stand. And thatās not just out of the Lost Boys characters, thatās out of literally everyone heās ever interacted with
Dwayne
*Heās secretly super competitive. Like, heāll try to come off as aloof as David is, maybe even more so, but he is super competitive for the dumbest things. Itās not about girls, most sports, or kills when they feed. Itās about who gets out the door first (always him just to piss off Paul), or whoās bike is the cleanest in the mornings before they go to sleep, or who ate the most food. Heās competitive about things the others donāt care about in the slightest
*Always over prepared with literally everything. Has a canvas bag just full of the most random and useful shit that he either keeps with his bike or tied to his belt loops to carry with him. It looks weird when he does that. He usually carries it because of Marko and Laddie and they are always asking him for stuff wondering if heās actually managed to bring it. Itās spooky, but he always does
*Talks in his sleep, a lot, every single night. Doesnāt move around or anything, heās stark still, just hanging there and talking. It absolutely terrifies everyone and they all avoid sleeping within six feet of him. It even bothers Max and heās had to talk to Dwayne about it multiple times. Dwayne had no idea that he does it until Max said something bc he just assumed the boys were complaining to mess with him
Hi! Just wanna say love all these little headcannons you make for the boys, but I was wondering how would they be with a sibling reader? I'm a girl but you can make it like a younger sibling in general. Ok thanks byeeeee
omg, hi, thank you so much!?? and yeah, i can totally deliver on that, just let me work my magic
The Lost Boys Head Canon: What They Are Like as Older Brothers
David:
*Yāknow Roderick from āDiary of A Wimpy Kidā? Yeah, thatās David as a big brother. He would spend all of his time brooding around and terrorizing you
*He has his moments tho, like, he wonāt ever let anyone pick on you, ever. For example, if a Surf Nazi ever tried something with you, you could expect to find their mutilated body out out on display for everyone to find
*He doesnāt really like to spend a lot of quality time with you, but heāll always do little things for you, like getting your favorite snacks or picking out movies you like for movie nights
*If you ever bring it up, he will vandalize something and blame it on you so that you get in trouble with Max. David is such a shit, he probably has a binder filled with detailed plans on his to fuck up your day if you ever reveal to anyone that he actually loves you
Marko:
*Heās so cool, heās definitely the older brother that you brag to your friends about and will invite to group hangouts. Your friends love him too bc he will help yāall get away with rebellious crap and adults wouldnāt be okay with
*If he ever catches you sneaking out or making out with someone, heāll tease you about it for weeks but heāll also cover for you so that no one ever finds out
*Heās also not afraid to let you know that you can always count on him and that he loves you, heās not embarrassed about it or anything. His main priority as an older brother is that you know you can always count on him for anything and everything
*Even if heās helping you do something thatās against the rules, you can always trust him to help you out if things go sideways and you need to bail. Marko will always have your back and do whatās best for you
Paul:
*A lot like Marko, heās the fun-loving older brother thatās always down for some mischief. Unfortunately, itās usually at your expense. Like, if he gets bored, heāll start drama to get you in trouble, just for kicks. Bc he has nothing else to do
*He can also be pretty annoying around your friends. They all have crushes on him bc he flirts with them constantly. Paul doesnāt actually have a genuine interest in any of them, he just knows it annoys you.
*Heās a good brother tho, if you do him favors, heāll help you get out of trouble with Max or give you all the cheat codes on how to sneak around and steal stuff from convenience stores
*You can have small sentimental moments with him too, especially one on one. Heās the older brother where you can just sit and watch a movie with him in silence and be totally at peace. But heāll also have you cracking up like a choking seal in a split second, just depends on his mood
Dwayne:
*Heās a lot more like a father than an older brother. If youāve forgotten something at home, heāll drive his motorcycle to you and give your items to you while lecturing you on responsibility. Itās so annoying and embarrassing
*Dwayne has even been mistaken for your dad on numerous occasions and he almost never corrects anyone, you have to do it. Heāll just smile awkwardly and continue on like nothing happened
*Still, if you ever need someone to talk to or someone to give you advice, heās always there, ready to talk or just to listen. If youāre feeling irrationally angry, heās hyping you up and feeding your delusions (you all know you have those moments, donāt even lie)
*If youāre a girl, and you need menstrual products, heās the first one up and out the door and will go out of his way to deliver whatever you need or want without hesitation. The others might balk at the question, but not Dwayne. Heās Mr. Dependable-with-a-bottomless-bag
It wasn't that I didn't like Forks. I loved Forks, most of the people I loved lived here, but holy crow did I hate the rain. I think the only thing that prevented me from choosing to live with my dad was the stupid weather in Forks, Washington. Well, that and the fact that I was almost entirely certain that Renee couldn't take care of herself without me there. But she has Phil now and I have. . . extremely soggy boots. I hate wearing boots but they're pretty essential in a place as gloomy as Forks.
I missed Charlie though, as well as Jacob. We haven't spent nearly as much time together as we did after his mom died. And now that Rachel and Rebecca are off and living their own lives, I'm basically the only female family member he has left. He used to be somewhat close to Leah, the ex of the current werewolf Alpha, Sam, but their relationship ended when Sam imprinted on her cousin/best friend Emily. No one could blame Leah for being closed off after that. She was always traveling around nowadays and when she was in Forks, it was never for very long. Though, she seems a lot happier and more upright in the new life she's leading. I admire that.
Being in Forks long-term after three years was surreal. It was a complete 180 from my toasty and dry Arizona. There's so much more moisture and green here, it was messing with my vision. Or maybe that's the difference in air quality, it made me want to lay on the gravel roads and list all of the differences, but that's considered impractical.
Charlie was ever silent next to me and if I didn't know any better, I'd think he was uninterested. But no, my father was just as awkward as me and doesn't know how to start conversations. I get a lot more talkative when I'm nervous, but I've learned to enjoy the quiet around Charlie. Out of everyone, ever, I've never felt out of place or overstimulated by his energy. Mostly because he didn't have much outside of sports and fishing.
I knew living with Charlie would be a simple arrangement, which I was looking forward to. I didn't have to do our taxes or pay all of our bill or make sure he had a steady job after quitting the old one. We could simply co-exist, and I could just be responsible for myself. Though I would take control of the kitchen. One thing Renee and Charlie had in common, the only thing they had in common, was that neither of them could cook for shit. I loved cooking though, so it would be nice to have control of a kitchen that wasn't tainted by Renee's failed monstrosities and Phil's flavorless "sport's diet". I have no problem with Phil, it's just his "cooking". No soul, lack of flavor, plus he'd make Renee and I follow it to make sure he stayed committed in the off season.
As we neared the house, Charlie got this secret smile that was wholly foreign on his face, and I noticed the corner of Billy Black's truck in our driveway. I was immediately suspicious and turned in my seat, fixing a wide-eyed stare on Charlie. I sat completely still and slowly leaned forward without blinking. Charlie tensed and leaned away.
"Bella, distracted driving is the number one cause of vehicular deaths," he recited in his police chief voice. I rolled my eyes, noting the roof and window of the car. the green was making me dizzy.
"I'm aware. What's going on?" I widened my eyes further and leaned in closer. I started to breathe obnoxiously loud to irritate him further.
"You'll find out when we get there. Girl, get the hell away from me," he exclaimed. I bet he was wishing he could just get out of the car at this moment.
"I don't like surprises, old man", I grumbled as I sat back in my seat correctly.
"Then don't think of it as one, think of it as a couple of homecoming presents," Charlie retorted sarcastically as he parked on the curb outside of our house. I didn't see Billy or Jacob, but that was clearly their truck in the driveway, which another vehicle was hitched to. It was covered with a tarp so I couldn't see anything but the bottom of the wheels.
"I don't like presents, either. Daaaad", I whined childishly to let him know of my disproval. He very pointedly rolled his eyes at me and turned off the cruiser.
I wrestled with the seatbelt, trying to free myself from the confines of this cage to go argue with my father some more. However, I got distracted by the flash of flushed russet and inky black barreling into my window. Before I could even register why the cruiser was groaning and shaking, I was yanked out of the car and spun around in the air. The combination of the overwhelming amount of green, the fast paced movement of my assailant, and the spinning was getting to be too much and I felt like I was going to hurl my guts out.
When I was finally put down, I immediately crumbled to my knees, closing my eyes and laying my spinning head onto the cool, damp grass. At least it was good for something, dumb green grass.
āOh crap! Bella! Are you okay?!ā Jacob. I was gonna kill him if I ruined this shirt, it was nice despite the fact that it wasnāt one of my summery blouses that I loved and missed dearly. Fucking Forks.
āIsabella Marie Swan! Whatāre you doing yoga poses on the lawn for?ā I heard a shout from the porch. Charlie.
At the same time, someone bellowed, āJacob Black, you better not have had anything to do with this!ā Billy.
Rough hands cupped my armpits and hauled me upright. I shoved my hand in Jacobās face, not forcefully, and I held it there until I felt better. When I did, I shoved him away by his face.
āDude, what the hell? I almost threw up,ā I said, finding my balance and walking up the porch.
āYou okay, Bells?ā Charlie asked, laying a hand on my shoulder and helping me inside.
āYeah, glad to be homeā, I muttered as I leaned down to hug Billy and greet him.
āGlad to have you home, sweet girlā, Billy said fatherly. It was like having a second dad, which is surely the way Jake sees Charlie as well.
āSo whatās with this surprise yāall had in mind?ā I asked diplomatically. I could mouth off to Charlie, because he knows better, but Billy and Jacob took time out of their days and put effort into helping my dad.
āWell, we know you have money saved up for a car, but thatās taken care of. Give or take a few minor repairs you might wantā, Jacob explained, jogging over the tarp-covered vehicle.
I winced lightly. āThatās really considerate, you guys, but I really wish you hadnāt gone through all that trouble just for me.ā It wasnāt that I wasnāt appreciative, but I liked earning my possessions. And I always felt guilty when people bought me things. Renee loved to give sob stories about being a single mom to get things out of people and I felt as though I was doing the same thing when people gave me things.
āDonāt worry sweetheart, itās not anything too special. The damn thing used to be a little father-son project for me and Jacob. Now weāre putting it to good use and saving you a bit of money,ā Billy dismissed casually.
It made me feel worse. That must have taken months, if not a couple of years of work and effort and here they were, handing it to me after three years of my absence.
āDonāt start thatā, Jacob huffed while untying the tarp. āIt was just lying around, unused and uncared for, and itās easier for all of us not to go car shopping and making sure you aināt getting a shit deal.ā
āJacob! Language!ā
Jacob rolled his eyes and in one very exaggerated move, pulled off the tarp.
My mind was blown.
Sure, it was super fricking old and the paint job was a mess, but something about this behemoth truck reminded me of Arizona more than any of the little knick knacks I packed. And a helluva lot more useful. My eyes welled up a bit, but I ducked my head bashfully to cover it up.
I ran to Jacob and hugged him in gratitude before excitedly opening the door to get a feel of my new baby. God, he was perfect. Warmer than I was expecting. Cool, if not chapped, leather seats, a bit of frostiness on the edges of the window. It was perfect. It wasā¦Bella. I loved it.
āThis is perfect! Oh my god, thank you so much!ā I hollered out the open window that took me a bit too much effort to roll down.
āWeāre glad you like it, Bells. Now come inside for your other surpriseā, Charlie said while rubbing his hands together to keep warm.
I hopped out the truck, actually looking forward to this next gift. I never really how well they truly knew me. Renee and Phil always did their best, but I had the feeling that the main motivation behind their gifts to me was to show how much money they spent on me. Or theyād just plain gift me things that they like, rather than what I liked. It was a unique, welcome feeling to receive things that have actual thought put into them.
I ran up to the porch, almost tripping and busting my ass, and Jacob didnāt do a damn thing but laugh at me for almost eating shit on the walkway.
Charlie in particular seemed very animated about this particular gift. He kept glancing at me in anticipation for my reaction when I saw it.
It was beautiful.
He had opened all of the cabinet doors, the pantry, as well as the fridge and freezer. Everything, too to bottom, was absolutely filled with various types of food and spices and herbs. Veggies and fruits that werenāt even in season. Meats, cheeses and so many condiments. I was in heaven. Ever ingredient for every recipe I wanted to try was right there for the taking. This time, a tear did slip down my cheek.
āOh, Dadā, I whispered, still in awe.
āYou like it right? I told your mom to send me ingredients for the recipes youāve made or wanted to try. Took a couple of months, but I finally got a long enough list and got to work. You like it, right?ā Charlie asked once more when I didnāt say a word.
Honestly, I was a bit choked up. āI love it. I love all of this. Being here with you three. The truck. This kitchen. Itās better than I couldāve ever imagined. Thank you so much, Dad.ā
He dug his feet into the wooden floor a bit, mumbling a response. His cheeks were bright red and his hands fiddled with the nervous energy from the attention.
āWelp. Me and Jake best get going before the sun sets. Donāt wanna run into any trouble out in the darkā, Billy said ominously. Before I could ask for clarification, he continued. āGlad to have you home, Bella. Take some time to settle in and get ready for school.ā
Ugh, school. The one thing that could put a damper on my mood. But I wouldnāt let it ruin my first day. Forks was looking better and better every minute.
I guess the green wasnāt so bad after all.

Hi š, My name is Mohammad, and Iām reaching out in a moment of desperate need. Iām a father of three young children living in Gaza, and we are caught in the midst of a catastrophic war. Our home is no longer a safe haven, and the future here seems increasingly uncertain. š
Iāve launched a fundraising campaign with the goal of raising $40,000 to relocate my family to a safer place where my children can grow up in peace and have a chance at a brighter future. šļøšµšø
Unfortunately, my previous fundraising efforts were abruptly halted when my account was terminated without explanation. However, I remain determined to keep fighting for my familyās safety and well-being. š«¶
If you could take a moment to read our story, consider donating, or simply share our campaign with others, it would make an incredible difference. Every act of kindness, no matter how small, brings us one step closer to safety and a new beginning. š
Thank you for your time, compassion, and support. ā¤

and the way she literally purposely made the video ten minutes long so that it went over the 8 minute mark which is the required length for your video to have monetary value. Even if people only watched it to shit on her, she still wouldāve made money off the viewings. Itās disgusting.
Imagine having a bunch of people telling you to apologize to the people youāve harmed over the year and instead you pop out your ukulele do a 10 minute song on how youāre the victim in all this
