Seven-Sentences Sunday

Writer’s block sucks! It sucks even more when you have just one chapter left of your story and it just won’t flow like it had been. For those waiting for the last chapter of The Impossible, I am so sorry I don’t have it finished. I have been hit with a bad case of writer’s block and just need to step away from it. I hope to have it finished some time this week.

😮🤤

I hate this theme. I can’t imagine Carlos is this way ever! He has so much love for TK and I just can’t imagine he’s not home for him more often. Not having dinner with him, spending every second possible with him. One reason I adore Carlos so much is because of how much he loves TK and how he will do anything to make sure the love of his life is happy! Hardly being home for dinner does not show that.

I do understand why people are running with it though. It’s because this is what the writers gave us in season 5. They showed him as distant and not as loving. Yeah he was grieving and had tunnel vision, but personally I do not feel like even in his grief, he would’ve ignored his husband. It’s just not in his character. The final season was their worst and I’m so sad they ended the show with Carlos this way and made TK, more or less, a housewife (not his passion). They changed our boys and took away the things we loved most about them. Season 5 pretty much just does not exist for me.

is it just me or is there this weird theme in future tarlos fics where Carlos is never home for dinner and sees his family for a few waking hours a week. and it’s not because they’re having problems or he’s avoiding them. there’s not even tension with this. he’s just often portrayed as always out of the house and only eating family dinner occasionally and working all the time and an outsider in his own family … for no reason

SEVEN SENTENCE SUNDAY

A little more than seven sentences, but hey... who actually follows that rule? Hahaha! Enjoy this little bit from Chapter 4 of RUINED. I should hopefully have this chapter posted within the next couple of days.

Carlos cradled TK's face in his large hands, his fingers trembling slightly as he leaned in to kiss him. The kiss was fervent and filled with an intensity that spoke volumes, a passionate declaration of feelings he had kept buried. As they finally pulled apart, their foreheads touched, creating an intimate connection that seemed to suspend time. Slowly, Carlos used his thumbs to gently brush away the tears that traveled down TK's cheeks, each droplet glistening in the soft light. “I’m going to miss you so much,” he whispered, his voice barely above a breath, heavy with emotion and the weight of their impending separation.

“I’m going to miss you too,” TK whispered, his heart racing as he pressed his lips against Carlos’s once more. The warmth of their connection enveloped them, and in that moment, he felt an overwhelming wave of emotion. “Carlos, I lo…,”

“Don’t. Please don’t say it. It’ll just make it harder for me to leave.”  He squeezed his eyes shut, feeling hot tears spill down his cheeks as he battled the overwhelming urge to voice the very words he had just silenced in TK. “I have to go.” In that fleeting moment, he leaned in for one last kiss, pouring every unspoken emotion—fear, love, and sorrow—into that brief encounter, desperate to convey what words could never express.
