elliot had never been a fan of kids, the one exception being his kid sister. they were just too loud, needy and annoying for the most part. sometimes they were good for entertainment, since a lot of them lacked proper social filters and spewed out whatever came to their mind, but that was it. however, as he stood in the park, leaned up against his car and a cute little boy ran over to compliment his car and ask him questions about it, he couldn’t help but feel a little warm inside. he entertained him, answering all his questions, wondering in the back of his mind where on earth whoever was supposed to be looking after him was. ‘mom look, this is the kind of car i’m going to get when i’m older!’ he said to a woman rushing towards them. well, there was the answer to that question. “you should keep better track of your kid.” he said before doing a double take. “wait a minute— veronica?” his eyes widened slightly. it was rare that he showed when something caught him off guard, since having a good poker face was an essential part of his job, but this was something he had not been prepared for whatsoever. he looked back at the little boy, suddenly seeing some of himself in his features. “how old did you say you were, buddy?” he asked, doing the mental math as he tried to process the possibility that this could be his son. / @malcmente​

based on this. this wasn’t the first time there were three people sitting at the breakfast table, instead of just elle and her best friend. she was also certain it wouldn’t be the last. what she did know for sure was that every time she saw her best friend with someone that wasn’t her, up all night because she simply couldn’t sleep thanks to the noises, it hurt every single bone in her body. because she wanted it to be her, laying in bed with the other and doing all the things just friends weren’t supposed to do. she wasn’t quite sure when it started, but she was jealous of every girl that ended up spending the night in the room next to her. “she’s really pretty.” she spoke up when said person finally walked out of their apartment, not being able to conceal the slight pettiness to her tone. “but next time, could you please bring someone home that isn’t a screamer? i can barely keep my eyes open thanks to the two of you.” / @malcmente​

Considering today was the first father’s day for Nils, Landry wanted to make it absolutely perfect. Now that they were settled at home with their new baby they were still adjusting. Landry already made sure to plan something special for the entire family, including her dads, but this morning was all about Nils. When she woke up she carefully got out of bed not wanting to wake him since it was his day off from work. Obviously she knew how stressful his job was and wanted him to get as much rest as possible. Thankfully she was up before the baby which meant she was able to get him settled without Nils overhearing on the baby monitor. After she had his gift laid out on the dining room table along with his breakfast she came upstairs with their baby in her arms to wake him. “Good morning Daddy,” she teased sitting on the edge of the bed carefully laying their son on his chest as she rouse him awake. “Somebody wants to with you a happy father’s day.”

not that rionne ever does. at least, not with most of them. and while the hastily scrawled note in the bathroom of some bar made her feel a little guilty about her endeavors initially, rionne had grown used to the occasional text message from strangers at constant hours of the day — at least the girl she’d been sitting in a cafe with had been interesting enough to have a decent conversation before taking her out. (ultimately, to later fuck, she’s assuming.) “thanks, though...sorry, you said you’re veronica, right? the numbers kinda get confusing after a while.” • @malcmente​

“Have you lost something?” Zoe finally chirped from her spot up in the trees. She’d been watching him for a while, following along through the branches as he went. Of course, she could have asked him earlier, when she’d first caught sight of him at the edge of their territory. Ever the curious little creature though, the princess had waited to see what he was doing. She tipped her head to the side in a distinctly avian gesture that was only reinforced by the wings that she flexed and stretched before settling them at her back. Then came the grin- mischievous and knowing. If her appearance didn’t give away what she was, that grin certainly did. She was a perfect picture of thousands of years of legends, perched up on a branch and looking down at the man like someone who knew too much. “Because you should know that once it’s come in this far, it belongs to us, so I hope that whatever it is wasn’t too terribly valuable to you.” // @malcmente​

he was cute. really cute. rosalina found herself shamelessly staring at him, shooting him smiles whenever he would happen to catch her. she was pretty sure he was interested too, but she never liked being the one to make the first move. with guys, she preferred to see how they would go about approaching her, what kind of moves they would put on. that was how she determined whether or not they were worth her time. he seemed different, though. most of the guys she met in her line of work were usually loud, obnoxious, always trying to be the center of attention. she didn’t peg him as one of those guys. probably because he wasn’t an influencer, as far as she knew. it was time to take a break from taking pictures and she walked over to where her bag was to grab her phone, glancing over at him again and hoping that he’d approach her. if not now, she at least wanted him to say something to her other than direct her how to pose or where to stand for the shoot before it ended. / @malcmente​

elliot hadn’t been sure what to expect from this parent teacher conference. it was his first time going as a parent. while he had a pretty good idea of what thiago would be like as a student from what he was like in general, and what elliot had been like when he was the same age (their similarities still blew his mind sometimes) he was sure he would still be in for some surprises. the first surprise of the night was how gorgeous his teacher was. thiago had babbled on about his pretty teacher, so he knew about his not-so-little crush on her, but he hadn’t been expecting the ray of absolute sunshine that greeted him and veronica at the door. he flashed her a charming smile as he shook her hand and waved off her thank you. “of course. you can’t have the parent teacher conferences without the ‘parent’ part, right?” he chuckled a little, then took a seat with veronica and thiago. he nodded as she started to speak, then sensed there was something more she wanted to talk about as she trailed off. “...but?” he seemed to say for her, exchanging a look of concern with veronica. / @malcmente​
