THE AFTER

THE AFTER

Zuko my love 😍

“So” I say silently as quiet begins to lull over the city, just a day after the attack and it’s all over, “that’s it… it’s all over. We’re free Ozai is—“ I quiet as Zuko looks down and sips his tea.

“Yes. I suppose so. You didn’t sustain any serious injuries?” He asks, “you didn’t look so good yesterday as Katara was healing you”

“Uh— well I survived so there’s that. Azula shooting me with lighting” chills run down my spine, “it was scary, Katara says the scar won’t ever go away so” a long sigh escapes me and I nervously rub my lower stomach.

“I don’t think I’ll forget you seizing.. it was terrifying” He admits leaning back a bit, “but you’re mostly healed yes?”

I nod slowly, “I’d think so. And you? She got you pretty well”

He agrees and looks down at his tea and I blab, “you and Mai back together?” I shoot out, “sorry I just don’t uh”

“No. I guess it’s alright. I’m not sure, I think she wants it but I’m” he pauses and looks at me, “I’m not sure just yet” he brushes his bangs out of his face and looks back down again, “I think I’m still a little”

“Nervous?”

“Hung up on someone?” We say at the same time and I just stare at him before almost knocking myself out of the chair

“I knew you and Katara had feelings for each other!” I’ve known I had feelings for him but when I saw the way he liked Mai and maybe Katara I shut it down.

“No. Not her” He repeats; the way he looks at me and I smile again, “you”

“Me?” I question and he nods slowly, “Zuko I” my voice quiets itself I

“I know”

HOW YOU GET THE GIRL

Mat Barzal x fem oc

(Sorry it took me so long to get anything out I’ve been posting drafts! Bf got sick then he got me sick! So short but merry Christmas if you celebrate it!)

I used to want a love of the ages, something that would make me feel like I was wanted. Not just there. I don't want him to just want me.

I dont know how to be a girlfriend- datings never been something I was good at. "What are you thinking about?" Mat asks as I run my hands along the leather casing of books.

"Stuff, like books" I reply trying to avoid the question he's going to ask

"Somehow I feel like books is a code name for something" He replies stepping towards me, “what are you truly thinking about?” He inquires

“Why?”

“Why what?” He looks at me with those big eyes that make my stomach twist into little knots and my knees buckle.

“Why me? Couldn’t you have had any woman at your fingertips?” I ask him; he shrugs in response and intertwines his arm with mine.

“It’s simple.. I think. Women throw themselves at me. You know. Puck bunnies. And sure I was content with that but I wanted something more.. someone who loved me for me— not just the number” his voice is calm and certain as we walk out the store and measel around the streets.

“I guess that makes sense, but how’d you know I wasn’t a puck bunny?” I question

“Well, the first time I walked in here, I was in my jersey and you still asked me for my name and not once did you mention Hockey. Even though the game was that night” he laughs a little and we walk back to my apartment.

“Do you want a glass of wine?” I ask as I punch in a code

“I would love that”

WHEN PUSH COMES TO SHOVE

Mat Barzal

I love writing angst and I haven’t done it in so long

“You pick her every time” I exclaim, throwing my hands in the air from my frustrations, “it will never be me! Will it? It won’t!”

“Would you just listen?” He asks, reaching for my hand and I pull away again, “fucking listen to me!” He shouts, “it is you, but you act so jealous all the god damn time”

“Me? Jealous? Well of fucking corse!” I groan, pacing around the living room, “you’re surrounded by these women who are obviously better than me and Sarah” her name comes out as a whisper against my breath. Like a word that can’t be spoken. A name that shouldn’t be said.

“Sarah? This is all about Sarah?” He doesn’t treat her name with the same weight I do.

“Yes! You didn’t come home until morning because you were busy with her! Not me. Her! You text her good morning not me! On Roadies and shit I feel like is her you talk to not me” I cry out, thick hot tears fall down my face. He reaches for me and I pull away again.

“What the hell does that even mean?” He asks, “you think I should just date her? Instead of you?”

“The way you act right now Mat? Yeah I think you should” I choke out, I don’t wait for his response

“Where the hell do you think you’re going?” He asks, he doesn’t block my path but he tries to

“Im going to Nico’s” I respond dryly as I grab my overnight bag and stuff some clothes in quickly.

“You accuse me of cheating and then you go to Nico’s?” He retorts; scoffing a little

“Don’t start with this right now!” I shout out, “at least I haven’t been caught with him this fucking close to my face like we’re kissing!”

He sighs and I drop my ring by the key bowl, “I need to get out”

New Jersey isn’t much of a drive but I end up there in morning. “What’s wrong?” Nico asks as he lets me inside

“Mat. He I think he’s cheating on me and I asked him about it and he kept denying it and then he accused me of cheating on him with you” I hiccup out

“I told you he was an ass” Nico says as I flop onto his couch, “but I don’t know.. why would he go through the trouble of proposing then cheating on you?” He reasons

“I just…” I lay down, “why am I so insecure? Why does it always feel that he picks her?” I ask

“Because he does”

I sigh, and roll onto my back, “I want to keep loving him. I want to always love him. But each time I keep getting hurt”

“Maybe you’re not meant to be”

Another tear sheds, “don’t say that Nico”

“Ok” he sighs softly

I spend the weekend there and the door rings and I really don’t want to answer it, “mat” I whisper

“I’m sorry, don’t let this be the end of us. I fucked up and I’m sorry I cheated”

The words barely register in my brain, “so you did cheat”

“I did”

“Leave”

“Y/n”

“Wait-“

“Get the fuck out right now”

“She told you to leave mat”

“Stay out of this Hischier!”

“Get out of my house Barzal”

i want to make something very clear:

adam johnson’s death is not a god damn plot for you to write about

A MAN DIED A TRAGIC DEATH IN A GOD AWFUL WAY

he fought for his life and LOST

do not

DO FUCKING NOT

use his DEATH as a fucking plot for other fics

that is disgusting and disturbing
