It had been a week since Quinn had watched you storm out of his apartment, a week since he ended things with you on a whim. He got a little too stressed, a little too overwhelmed. He’d snapped at you after being short with you all week anyway; it started an argument. You’d finally stood your ground, not being able to take anymore of his attitude, demanding to know what you did to deserve being treated that way. Quinn panicked and let things escalate; it was the first time he’d ever heard you yell, but it only happened after he’d raised his voice at you. He’d said something that couldn’t be taken back, and you fired something just as brutal right back at him. That’s when he called it off, told you he was done, that you should just leave. 

Tw: heavy on the angst, THAT lumax scene rewritten

"Get your fucking hands off my sister, Carver!" a large bloody blur appears out of thin air, launching itself at a bewildered Jason.

"Billy? How-" Lucas starts, his throbbing head trying to process what he's seeing.

Billy Hargrove is in one piece, and he's angry- this resurrected embodiment of nothing but pure rage makes prior images of him at the Byers house look like child's play.

A wild animal has been unleashed, and by the grace of God, he's not even remotely interested in focusing any of that on Lucas.

He's never seen anyone fight with their entire body. Billy is pounding his fists into Jason, and his boots make squelched sounds as he stomps Carver's flesh like a Halloween pumpkin.

Crack.

Oh shit. Max.

His fiery soulmate is still suspended in mid air, and to Lucas's horror, her limbs are starting to contort into opposite positions.

Billy must see it, too, because he drops Carver, and grabs at Max's sneakers. "Shitbird, snap out of it! Sinclair, where's her damn walkman?" he snaps, urgency in his tone.

Lucas points to the damage on the floor beside Carver, and Billy shakes his head, his matted hair slapping his face.

Max's vibrant blue eyes are squirting out blood, and another agonizing crack fills the air.

"MAXINE! YOU LITTLE BITCH, WAKE UP!" Billy roars, and suddenly Max's crumbled body falls into her brother's arms.

Lucas's mouth is open but no words are coming out. He reaches for Max and Billy actually growls at him.

He's about to give Hargrove a piece of his damn mind, but then he notices how Billy is holding her. He's cradling her in his arms, shaking her gently, his shoulders moving up and down.

He's crying.

"B-billy?" Max gasps out.

"It's me, Shit Bird," Billy says, voice cracking.

"Billy, I-I can't f-feel or-or s-see anything."

"You're gonna be fine, Max, you hear me?"

"I don't.. I don't wanna die..."

"You're not gonna! I'm not gonna let you!" He cups Max's ears, and yells, "SOMEONE GET A FUCKING AMBULANCE! PLEASE!"

"D-don't cry, Billy..."

"ERICA! ERICA, HELP!" Lucas shouts for his little sister, tears streaming down his face.

"Don't... be mad, I'm going... to the movies with... Lucas..."

"I'm not mad, Shit Bird, I'm not. You're gonna be fine- SINCLAIR WHERE'S THE GODDAMN AMBULANCE!"

"ERICA!"

"Big... bro..." Max struggles to speak, her sightless eyes unfocused.

"I'm here, Maxine. Keep talking to me," Billy pleads, sniffling.

"Wish..."

She goes still, and Billy starts to shake her again. "No, no, Shit Bird, don't die! DON'T YOU DARE...Max?"

His voice sounds so small, a grieving mouse in a lion's body.

Lucas is watching one of the big bads of his childhood come undone before him.

But Billy Hargrove isn't a villain at this moment. Maybe he never was.

Right now, he's just a little boy, trying to wake up his sister.

Prompt Lyrics: “All I know is you held the door, You’ll be mine and I’ll be yours, All I know since yesterday, Is everything has changed.”

masterlist | TS Series Requesting Rules and Overview | TS Series Masterlist | Red Masterlist

Timo asked you to be his girlfriend, and it was like a switch had flipped in your life. It felt like just the other day he held the door open for you as you walked into the restaurant on your first date. You two had spent the entire night getting to know one another, falling deep into something that was only just starting. You knew then that this was right for you; it had to be. The two of you fit so well, and you’d never met a man so interested in every little thing you had to say. You would think he was listening to his coach explain a play during a timeout with thirty seconds left on the clock, the way he was locked in. You’re convinced you could’ve said anything, and he would’ve been on the edge of his seat. 

It felt like just yesterday he invited you inside after the third date. That’s when he made sure you felt loved, made sure you knew your worth. He took the time to show you that every inch of you matters, and you’ve carried that with you ever since.

It was just yesterday when Timo took the step to make things official. He’d taken you on a nice date, let you dress up, and made you feel like the only girl in the world. He set aside a special moment just to ask you to officially be his girlfriend, and there was no world in which you turned him down. 

You weren’t sure how you felt so different, or why it seemed like you were in a whole new world. What you were sure of, though, was that since yesterday, everything had changed for you. The sun was shining brighter. The birds were chirping more happily. Everything around you was better, more vivid; it meant more. Nothing is the same as before, and you’re finding that you prefer it this way.

Everything got brighter once more when you see Timo’s name lighting up your phone. When you woke up yesterday, you never would’ve guessed how much your life would change, how much your outlook on life would change, in less than 24 hours. You knew then how you felt about him, but it’s only amplified since then. Timo has flipped your world upside down, and you never want it right side up again.

The Overview:

I’m starting a new series!!

This series will be based on Taylor Swift's songs, using her lyrics as prompts.

The goal is to have at least one fic for every one of her songs!

The catch? I’m only accepting one to two lines per request.

What might a request look like?

For example, if you wanted me to write something based on part of You Belong With Me, you would look through the lyrics of the song, and pick out one to two lines that stick out to you!

It would look something like this:

Hi! Can you write something for (insert player name) with “And you’ve got a smile that can light up this whole town, I haven’t seen it in a while since she brought you down” from You Belong With Me?

It should be pretty short! Not an entire verse or chorus!

Why do I only want a couple of lines instead of a verse or the whole song?

For one thing, I think it’ll be more of a challenge for me! I could write something that doesn’t correspond with the song if I’m only using a line or two.

For another, it gives me more room to be creative! As said before, I can only do so much if the whole song, or a big chunk of it, is used.

Lastly, I want to write as many of these fics as possible! If we use smaller portions of the song, I can do multiple requests for one song instead of being limited to one or two!

Would I accept a request for longer parts of the song?

In short, probably not. Like I said, I want to do this as much as possible, and it’s not fair to others if someone were to send in an entire song, and I couldn’t do anything else from that song.

That's not to say I would completely ignore it!!

I would probably just ask the requester to narrow down the lyrics a little bit or ask if I could pick something from the lines they've given me.

Overall, this is something I’m really excited to do!! I already draw so much inspiration from Taylor’s songs, so I’m excited to see what I can do with just bits and pieces of them.

I hope you all are just as excited for this as I am! I want you all to participate, and hopefully, give me some fun, challenging stuff to write! 

Requests for this series are now open!! So start sending in!!

ONE LAST REMINDER:

I do NOT write full-on smut, although I am willing to write the leadup.

Don’t feel like you can’t request some of Taylor’s spicier lyrics!!

Just know that it won’t be a full-on smut fic!!
