He doesn't want to fuck up whatever bond is forming in his new pack, but the marks look good on Sean. They look even better when he realizes Ryan's the one leaving them.

A/N: Title comes from Empires' Valmont. If you don't know the song, go download HOWL from their website FOR FREE right this very instant. Part of the werewolf!Empires 'verse. You don't have to have read They Just Howl, since there's no plot to this, but that's where it started. And there's a big part in between that's as-yet-unfinished. This one is just about sex. Beta'd by irisgirl12000, all remaining mistakes (and I know there are at least a few) are all mine. Dedicated to my girls: irisgirl12000, shutyourface, reallythateasy, nearlycloudy, and ashlein, who have all already read this.

( Somehow Ryan always ends up with accidental marks. Sean ends up with the intentional ones. )

Guess what? I'm gonna torment yall with fic. :) Just be happy it's not the high school AU, lol. I'm gonna link you to two older fics that I actually really like, then give you the new one. One of the old fics reminded me of a challenge, though, and I wondered if anyone would be interested in participating.

The original challenge was to take the first five songs to come up on random in your itunes/whatever player you use for music files and take the first line of the second verse of each song and create a ficlet incorporating those lines. Awesome challenge, right? So I'm gonna alter it a little bit, if anyone is interested in playing along with me. If you leave me a comment, I'll give you the first line of the second verse of the first five songs to come up in MY itunes shuffle, and you use them to create a ficlet. Any fandom/pairing/whatthefuckever. Anyone wanna play?

I don't even remember exactly what I was dreaming but it was really fucking cracked out. I think maybe someone is putting drugs in my meds again, wtf?

Also, fangs_up1 scared the fuck out of me this morning. Idk why, but when I hear a man's voice, I either think it's my ex and/or his friends or I think it's the cops, both of which are bad news situations, especially when I'm not fully awake. Yeah, I know it's not rational. But I heard Johnathan this morning as I was still mostly asleep and already kinda freaked by my dreams, and it was like I was instantly awake and panicking. B/c I'm a freak, apparently, and the sound of a man at the door gives me a panic attack. *fail* I don't know when Johnathan's voice changed, though, lol.

I was going to give him a hard time about it, but it wasn't worth getting out of bed for, haha.

Off work today! I'm going back to sleep for a couple hours, gotta take the boys to meet their teachers later this afternoon. :)

So, we had a bit of an adventure tonight.

Quick note: I know most people don't visit graves, for whatever reason. I also don't talk about my personal religious beliefs on here, mainly because I believe faith is a deeply personal thing, and I know what I believe and that's enough for me. But I do visit my daughter's grave on a regular basis. It's not that it makes me feel close to her there, because I know she's always with me. I think at first it was just somewhere to go where I could be left alone. But it's also always been a way to keep the boys connected with their sister. They love to pick out flowers/balloons/toys/whatever to take to her. (Also, she's part of their everyday lives too. Quite often when strange things happen, they blame their sister. They like to write their name and draw hearts on balloons and let them go to the sky. Kelly Marie regularly steals balloons if we don't give them to her, lol.)

Anyway, Kelly Marie's 10th birthday is next Friday, and I won't be able to make it to Blacksburg then, so we went up there this evening. Harley was driving because I'm an awesome sister, and maybe a little because I like to freak my mom out (my mom still covers her eyes when I merge onto the interstate and I've been driving since I was 12, she's so much worse with Harley driving). We get to Bburg and park the car, and I left my phone on the seat because I had been texting on the drive up and I didn't need my phone. Harley left the keys on the driver's seat of the van (I tend to leave them in the ignition most of the time. The bad habits you pick up living in a small town.) and she and I got about ten feet from the van and heard the 'click' of the automatic locks. We both stopped, looked at each other, and looked back at the van. We had all the windows up because we'd bought balloons so the A/C was a better option coming up the road.

So, my van is locked, with my keys and my phone inside it, in a cemetery. At dusk.

My brother came to rescue us, since he has the spare key to my car (yall know that story right? keys locked in my car with the car running at 3am in the firelane at walmart in the rain?), but he took like two hours to get there. Bburg is only half an hour away from me, but he had to finish up cheer practice and go get the key and get my mom's car b/c his didn't have enough gas and then there was road work on the interstate. Blah.

It's not like we were in the middle of nowhere -- the cemetery is blocks away from downtown Blacksburg and Virginia Tech -- but it was still creepy, especially with the almost-full moon and the way it was getting dark and chilly. And we were walking around looking at the other stones (my kids love to go walking "in the dead people's place") and there was one that just said "3 unknowns, Rt 114, 1986" and it seriously gave both me and Harley chills. Also, the kids and I went to the opposite end of the cemetery to find Michael Whitaker's grave, which led to me talking about him and Judd, and then about Davey (my ex-hubby's best friend who was murdered the summer I was pregnant with Kelly Marie -- he's the one Davey is name after, obviously).

Anyway, it was pretty creepy, lol. The boys said Kelly Marie just wanted her Uncle RT to come see her. Idk. But it was an adventure. Especially with the boys being them and talking about zombies and vampires and things.

Also, Johnathan is a cheater. He cheated at bowling this afternoon and still lost. (okay, so we were using bumper guards, so we were both cheating, kinda. but he was using the kiddie ramp!) Then we were all taking turns playing air hockey and he was trying to distract me so Harley would win, and he had me laughing because he was all "I'm gonna distract you so your sister can win, lalala, how can I distract you?" and then he's like "OH! I know how to distract you! BertQuinnJephaDan!" Loser. Well, in this case the loser was ME b/c Harley got the game-winning point after that b/c I was laughing too hard to even see the puck, but whatever.

OH AND GUESS WHAT???? I got the other UHG job! So starting Tuesday (Monday is a holiday, and also Harley's 16th bday!) I'm back to working 8:30 to 5. YAYES!!!

P.S. COME PLAY WITH ME!
