#attached
please don’t fall out of love with me
Of course I made too much of a deal about the date night. Too much anxiety.
It was a wonderful evening. And followed pretty much the usual script: start at the bar, move to the lounge, sit far apart, sit closer, subtle touching of the shoulder/arm/leg, kiss on the cheek, blow job in the parking lot…
KIDDING!
There was no blow job. We had a wonderful conversation and snuggled on a couch. We did get beyond the innuendo and agree that there is a sexual attraction there. So that was good. I dig her.
But…
I worry that she’s going to get too attached. They jumped into the lifestyle by getting into a six-year relationship with another couple, which evidently ended poorly because of attachments and jealousy. We are definitely not looking for anything serious. I think I have made that clear to her. I know that my spouse has made that clear to her spouse.
Speaking of the spouses: they had their date night last night. While it was going on, I was completely cool with it. Now I knew there was no hall pass, so maybe that was a part of my ease, but I never even wondered to what level of touching or kissing they got to. And I didn’t ask when she got home. As long as she is happy, I am happy.
And she is happy. She likes him.
I think that the four of us are going to hang together soon. Maybe as soon as tonight.
Yep. You might say she got really attached. Sorry not sorry.
Prompt #13
“A vague description of me ? Funny, you think that’s enough to understand me as you do claim to want”
“We can make it all better - you don’t have to be like this [villain] !”
“Don’t you know the old saying ? Good cannot exist without evil ? You’ll be out of a job if it weren’t for me”
“Please - I don’t care - I don’t care about my job ! I care about you,, ok ?!”
“Such aggression - so much emotion, I love it - one of the reasons I’m the way I am,, you just got too attached”
Words of Salvation

Pairing:Steve Rogers x reader Word count: 5790
Summary:
Modern-college-professor AU… aka the wrong attachment AU ;)The world keeps turning, finals have to be passed, life goes on… but does it? How long can you get away with avoiding professor Rogers?
How long can you keep your eyes on him knowing he might have read it? How long can you keep your eyes off him when he’s still so damn hot? It’s infuriating, really…
Warnings: swearing, mention of porn, awkward conversations, brief panic, the briefest mention of a kink… and that’s it I think?

Never in your life you had called finals a blessing. The end of semester always meant eating crappier than usual, at the strangest times too, lacking sleep, overdosing on caffeine, people being in a foul mood and praying to whatever gods that came to mind to pass every exam in a forget-the-grades- just-let-me-pass style.
This year however, finals and the mess that came with them was exactly what you needed to get your mind off of your epically embarrassing error. The load of studying left you so nervous you didn’t even realize that your one of your tests was with Professor Barnes; once you finished writing and the paper disappeared from your sight, your hands automatically gathering your things, your steps leading you out of the auditorium, you nearly stumbled over your feet when you met Barnes’ smirk. But he didn’t give you any special treatment, promising to let you all know your grades via an e-mail and the incident was once again completely forgotten as you returned to the mad pit of exams time.
You know that part that reads “Penny nearly lost it when (…)”
Well I NEARLY LOST IT WHEN - THIS WHOLE CHAPTER -

Long story short, about a year ago, there was a pretty fair chance I was gonna lose an eyebrow (I ended up only losing a very small chunk) and I called up my best friend and was like “Yo, guess what, I may not have a left eyebrow on Monday” and I was expecting him to be like “haha wut?” but he got really really upset and like, EXTREMELY and IRRATIONALLY distressed. Like wtf dude, why are you so attached to my left eyebrow????
We keep at it,
unsaid somethings moving in our mouths, forcing smiles.
I use to be good at this,
pushing forward without regard for tomorrow,
never thinking of years, just now.
It takes 21 days to make a habit,
but only minutes before a body breaks it.
Enough forethought and you can talk yourself out of anything.
I’ve grown good at this.
It’s not caution,
just your chest feels like constant,
and mine unlearned that weight long ago.
