The smell of weed was the first thing that reached Ellie's nose when she walked into the house.
Mid term exams has had her stressed and she's barley been out. Whoever said college would be easy, lied because she's never been this stressed.
She needed to blow off some steam and what better way is there than to get blackout out drunk and to fuck a random girl she'll never talk to again.
It was too early in the night to make a move. She need to wait for the straight girls to get drunk, and for the overly emotional girls to come her way.
She sat on a couch scanning the room. So many victims, so many options.
Who will be the lucky girl tonight?
"You know its gross to eye fuck innocent people?" she heard a voice talk next to her.
A small frown appeared on Ellie's face when she turned to you.
Holy shit, who are you?
Her eyes scanned your body.... fuck
Maybe you'd be the lucky one
You noticed her staring and you rolled your eyes before saying: "Take your pervert eyes off me"
Oh you were feisty.
Ellie never had a problem with women. Most of them threw themselves at her, all she needed to do was say a few words and give them a small smile and they'd be moaning her name minutes later.
She was confident that she'll get you too. She just needed to pull out all the stops when it came to you.
Ellie chuckled at your comment "I'm not a pervert, I'm just checking to make sure you don't have a weapon on you?" she joked.
"What weapon? My strap on?" You snorted.
oh.
Ellie wasn't expecting that.
"What's wrong? Cat got your tongue?" you teased at her sudden silence.
Ellie shook her head quickly gaining her composure.
"Has anyone ever told you that you were pretty?" She quickly tried changing the subject.
You hummed "quite a few... has anyone ever told you that you suck at flirting?"
Now this made her jaw drop.
You didn't giggle like she expected, you didn't give her a shy smile.
What the fuck is happening?
"You're boring" you state, you got up and left.
You left the Ellie Williams speechless.
The longer the night went on the more her mind drifted to you. Her mission of finding someone to fuck ended as soon as you came into the picture.
She wanted you. She was on a mission to find you. But between all the people grinding up against each other she thought that would be impossible.
"Hey there loser" she heard your voice she immediately turned to you.
"h-hey" did she just fucking stutter?
"Did you find someone to fuck yet?" you asked she shook her head.
"Maybe we can..." Ellie went silent, too shy to finish her sentence.
She made two scissors with her hands and she made a scissoring motion "you k-know.... me and you"
You laugh at her. You fucking laugh at her.
"Don't be pathetic, use your words"
Ellie felt humiliated. Why were you telling her what to do? Normally she was the one giving orders. Ellie decided that its time to switch roles. She wanted to be in charge.
"Well lets go to the bathroom and ill show you what i can do"
"so you're saying im some kind of cheap fuck?"
"N-no i mean... i meant like-"
"see fucking pathetic"
Ellie was sweating, her cheeks were tinted in a dark shade of pink.
What were you doing to her?
You gently took her hand "show me where your dorm is" was all you said.
The rest was a blur to her.
Lips passionately touching each other, clothes flying off, your fingers in her. A tiny rose tattoo on your left shoulder. She's never cum so hard in her life.
After tonight she knew you fucked her over.
No one had made her this nervous, no one has ever made her finish this hard, no one had ever made her this submissive.
Who are you?
Ellie groaned when she heard her alarm go off. She rolled over to the side of the bed you were laying on, but you weren't there.
She opened her eyes to a cold empty bed.
"Fuck" she sighed.
She never got your name, she doesn't have your number, she doesn't know anything about you.
The memory of you on top of her, you moaning was all she could think about.
Fuck, how she just forget that? How could she forget you?
The only thing she remembered was the rose tattoo on your left shoulder.
"Fuck rose who are you?"

Masterlist
1:58 AM
The party had long since blurred.
You were stretched across the living room couch, head tilted back, red cup dangling loosely from your fingers. Bass still pulsed faintly through the floor, though the crowd had thinned. You should’ve gone home. You should’ve stayed home.
But you were tipsy now. And stupid.
Which meant only one thing:
You were about to text her.
Ellie Williams.
Your ex. Or almost-ex. Or not-quite-anything that still managed to hurt like hell.
Your finger hovered over her name.
You hadn’t spoken in weeks—not really, not since that fight.
Not since you said you were done pretending.
She never said you weren’t.
She just... let you go.
But your chest was too heavy, your brain too slow, and your fingers too fast.
you:
you up?
Delivered.
Read.
Nothing.
You dropped your head back and shut your eyes.
This was a bad idea.
The last time you saw her was a month ago. Cold air. Hot tears.
You yelling in the middle of her apartment while she stood still, staring at you like you were a puzzle she couldn’t solve anymore.
“You don’t say how you feel, Ellie,” you’d snapped. “You don’t do anything until it’s too late.”
“You always want more from me,” she said quietly. “And I never know how to give it without ruining it.”
“I’m not asking for perfect. I’m asking for real.”
She didn’t stop you when you left.
But her hand lingered on the door longer than it should have.
2:14 AM
Your phone buzzed.
Ellie:
what do you want?
Your breath caught.
She was always like this—short, cautious. But she answered.
you, you typed. Then erased it.
you:
to talk
A pause. Three dots. Then nothing.
2:22 AM
Ellie:
you’re drunk
You:
so?
Ellie:
you only miss me when you’re not sober
you only remember how we felt when you can’t feel anything else
You:
that’s not true.
I miss you every fucking day.
That one stung. You knew it would. You meant it to.
Your phone buzzed again.
Ellie:
then why did you leave?
Your thumb hovered over the screen.
You:
because you never asked me to stay.
Silence.
You waited, heart racing, guilt settling like fog in your chest. Maybe that was too much. Maybe she’d block you. Maybe—
Ellie:
i didn’t know how
i still don’t
You blinked hard. The room spun.
You:
i’m outside
You didn’t even remember walking to her place. You just knew your hand was curled into a fist, knuckles lightly tapping her apartment door in the cold.
It opened slowly.
Ellie stood there in a hoodie and sweats, bare feet, eyes tired and red-rimmed. Like she hadn’t slept in days.
“You shouldn’t be here,” she said. Voice small.
“I know,” you whispered. “But I needed to see you.”
She stepped back. Just enough.
You walked inside.
The place looked the same—records on the floor, your old hoodie still slung over the back of the couch. You stared at it.
“You kept it.”
“I keep a lot of things I shouldn’t,” she said quietly.
You turned. She was watching you like you were a dream she couldn’t decide was good or bad.
“Why did you answer?” you asked.
Ellie’s throat bobbed. “Because I always do. Because I want to hate you, but I don’t. Because even now... I still think about you before I go to sleep.”
Silence stretched like a wound.
“I hate that you only come back when you’re drunk,” she whispered.
You stepped closer.
“I hate that it’s the only time I feel brave enough to.”
She didn’t pull away when you reached for her hand.
The couch was cold. Her body was warm. You sat beside each other in that too-familiar way, knees brushing, fingers playing with the hem of her sleeve.
“You think if we were better at talking, we wouldn’t have fallen apart?” you asked.
Ellie laughed softly. “No. I think if I’d told you how much I loved you, you might’ve stayed.”
You froze.
She never said it back when you did. Not once.
Now you didn’t know what to say.
She turned her head. Her green eyes were glassy. Raw.
“I did,” she whispered. “I just... couldn’t say it out loud.”
You leaned in before you could stop yourself.
It wasn’t a kiss, not yet. Just your foreheads pressed together, your breath mixing with hers, that ache rising again, warm and hungry and full of everything you never said.
“I still love you,” you said, barely audible.
Ellie closed her eyes. “God, I wish I didn’t.”
Then she kissed you.
And it tasted like regret. Like forgiveness. Like maybe this time, you wouldn’t let go.

Summary: In which Ellie is fucking crazy
wc: 1.7K
She's asleep in the backseat
Looking peaceful enough to me
But she's waking up inside a dream
Full of screeching tires and fire
We're coming back from where no one lives
Pretty much just veterans
When I pointed out where the North Star is
She called me a fucking liar
Ellie’s grip tightened on the steering wheel. Her knuckles turned white, her shoulders were tense. She stared off into the distance thinking about the situation she found herself in. She started at him through the rear view mirror waiting to see if he would wake up, or if he was dead.
Ellie had been sitting in this abandoned parking lot for hours now. She couldn’t go back to Jackson with Jesse beat up, full of blood and possibly dead. People would ask too many questions. Questions she isn’t ready to answer. She wasn’t ready to face the consequences that were waiting for her back in Jackson.
Her thoughts were interrupted when she heard a groan coming from behind her. Ellie looked over her shoulder and she was met with a bloodied and tied up Jesse looking back at her with tears in his eyes.
The two started at each other in silence for a few seconds. They both waiting for the other one to say something.
And finally, finally Jesse spoke up.
“Please tell me this is a dream” he looked at Ellie eyes wide, filled with tears. Ellie felt the guilt grow in her stomach as she heard Jesse let out a whimper when she didn’t answer his question.
“Please” he asked again “Please tell me this is nightmare”
Ellie let out a shaky breath before she answered him: “no its not”
Jesse let out a loud sob at her words. Ellie turned herself away from the backseat. Her guilt was already eating her alive, but hearing Jesse fucking sob was not making it easier. Ellie’s hands met with the steering wheel again, gripping it with a tightly once again.
Ellie looked over to the passenger seat and a small smile appeared on her face for the first time that day. You always sat there. You would make stupid jokes that would make Ellie smile like an idiot, how you would always pack lunch for her and leave it on the passenger seat and leaving a note saying “your temporary princess”
fuck. She misses you.
“You’re going to kill be aren’t you?” Jesse asked from the backseat.
“Yeah” Ellie sighed “I have to”
“I won’t tell anyone about this and what you did to Dina”
“I don’t believe you”
“Ellie I know what Dina did to your girl wasn’t very nice but that didn’t mean you had to kill her- “
“Dina deserved to die” Ellie replied quickly “you deserve it too” she continued. She looked back at Jesse when he went silent. A grin appeared on Ellie’s face as she turned the key. The car rumbled underneath the two of them as Ellie asked one last question to Jesse:
“should I slit your throat or should I shoot your brains out?”
Emily, I'm sorry I just
Make it up as I go along
And I can feel myself becoming
Someone only you could want
Ellie was sorry. She was sorry that on that one faithful night in October that she let you walk out. If she could go back in time she would. She would’ve stopped you and locked you in her apartment.
And as soon as you walked out that door Ellie didn’t hear from you again.
You and Ellie had met at a park. It was the night Cat broke up with her. Ellie remembers sitting at a bench at 3 in morning just sobbing, but then she heard your voice for the first time.
“Hey” you said softly “I don’t know if you’re drunk or if you got your heart broken but here’s a slice of bread”
Ellie’s brows furrowed and she looked up at you: “why are you giving me one slice of bread?” she asked confused.
“well because if you’re drunk my mom said that a slice of bread will sober you up and if you’re heartbroken then it’s a snack”
Ellie cracked a smile for the first time that night. You don’t even know why you helped her that night.
Sometimes you regret giving her that stupid piece of bread.
Ever since that night you and Ellie practically became best friends. And from best friends the two of you quickly started dating. And you were happy. Both of you were.
Until you noticed Ellie’s obsessive behavior.
Sometimes when you would open the curtains in your apartment you’d see Ellie sitting on that bench staring at your place. There were times you would walk in on Ellie sniffing and sometimes stealing your clothes. You don’t know but somehow Ellie managed to go through every single one of your contacts and calling each of them to ask what their intention with you was.
You couldn’t be with someone tracks your every move, Ellie was suffocating you. And no matter much you loved her, you couldn’t do it anymore. For your own mental health and safety, you decided to leave her.
You left Ellie in October. After dating her for 7 months you couldn’t take it anymore.
Love is a beautiful thing but the longer you stayed with Ellie the more you hated the idea of being in relationship.
And even after leaving Ellie it didn’t stop. In fact, she got even worse.
You wished you never gave that slice of bread.
Headed straight for the concrete
In a nightmare, screaming
Now I'm wide awake, spiraling
And you don't want to talk
Just take me back to Montreal
I'll get a real job, you'll go back to school
We can burn out in the freezing cold
And just get lost
The obsession Ellie had with you was toxic. It was bad for her. It was bad for you.
Drug addicts would do anything just to get money to buy more. Just get a hit. Just like Ellie would do anything to get a glimpse of you.
She followed you around. Wherever you were Ellie was.
It was a normal Tuesday for Ellie. She hid in her car watching your apartment.
She just wanted to see you. She just wanted a little peek. No matter how small, she just wanted to see.
To Ellie’s surprise she saw you dressed up, in a white pencil skirt, with a black cropped top saying I love pussy.
You walked out the house, and Ellie’s immediate instinct was to follow you.
She knew what she was doing was wrong. It was illegal. It goes against her morals but for you she would throw away everything.
You walked into a café and Ellie followed you in, she put on sunglasses and she pulled the hood of hoodie up. Ellie sat directly behind you. She could hear everything. As you sat in the café your friend Dina showed up.
Dina didn’t even say hi. All she did was slap you and accuse you of sleeping with her boyfriend. You didn’t even get a word in. And Dina left.
You went home crying, you sobbed for hours.
How could your best friend accuse you of such a thing?
And Ellie watched you through your window all those nights you cried. The way you beat yourself up over something you didn’t do.
Ellie knows you would never do it.
She’s always with you, she would’ve know if you had slept with Jesse.
Ellie saw how much pain you were in and she hated it. She wanted to comfort you and tell you it’s all going to be ok. But she couldn’t. All she could do, was go to person who caused you all this pain.
She was going to make Dina feel what you were feeling.
Maybe not emotionally. But physically.
Oh, Ellie might as well pay Dina’s boyfriend a visit.
Emily, I'm sorry, baby
You know how I get when I'm wrong
And I can feel myself becoming
Somebody I'm not, I'm not, so
Emily, forgive me, can we
Make it up as we go along?
I'm twenty-seven and I don't know who I am
But I know what I want
Ellie was a bad person.
She realized she was when she put the blade between Dina’s lips and harshly pulling it that it cut her mouth open. Ellie listened to Dina’s screams. She watched Dina cry and beg for her life when Ellie hung her on the roof. She watched Dina vomit when Ellie forced her to eat raw meat.
People shouldn’t do this to other people.
But you were worth it.
Ellie would kill millions of people for you.
She shot Jesse in the head, execution style, as she watched a mixture of brains and blood drip from his skull.
To make things romantic she set them both on fire. They could burn in hell together forever.
Ellie made Dina feel the pain that she put you through. Dina deserved it.
Because of her love for you Ellie became the person she never wanted to be. You made her feel and do things she promised herself she would never do. She was not the sweet girl Joel raised.
It’s all for love. Ellie was doing this all for your love.
Ellie hoped you’d forgive her one day.
She hoped you would come back to her and say I miss you lets fix things.
She wished.
She knows what she wants and she wants you.
She needs you.
She needs you to be happy and safe and that why she killed Dina and Jesse. They threatened your safety. They threatened your happiness.
But little did Ellie know she was the one that sucks the joy out you. And even if she knew she would have not believed you.
Ellie was sorry for scaring you when the two of you were together. She was sorry for the time she almost killed your mom because she got too close to you. She’s sorry that she made multiple accounts on Instagram to tell people to unfollow you. She’s sorry she broke into your home that one night when you took too long to respond.
Her biggest regret was not being sneaky enough.
Emily, I'm sorry
Emily, I'm sorry
I'm sorry
“I’m sorry” Ellie spoke softly as she stood in front of your house.
Ellie doesn’t even know who she’s saying sorry to. To you? For killing your best friends? To Dina? For murdering her? To Jesse? For killing the love of his life or for killing him?
Even though Ellie was saying sorry she didn’t mean it. The guilt she felt when she had Jesse in the car quickly fell away when she realized who she was doing this for.
Dina and Jesse were parasites. They were dirty people who did nothing but hurt other. They deserved to die. She was happy that she killed both of them. She got rid of the people who was hurting you. And she would do it again and again. You didn’t need to know what happened to them.
Ellie raised her hand to knock on your front door. She knocked 3 times before the door opened, and she was met with your sleep filled eyes.
You looked at Ellie taking in her bloody appearance, you gently shook your head before you asked her: “who did you hurt this time?”
“you don’t need to know” Ellie replied quickly as she walked into your house.
You were never getting rid of her. You knew that. You would live the rest of your life being followed by Ellie Williams. You would spend the rest of your life grieving any friendships and relationship you had. Because Ellie was the only one who stayed. Who survived.
You were Ellie’s girl. For the rest of your fucking life.
Authors note: Dude this story would actually have a good part 2 lmao but anyway remember you are loved and to always be kind.

masterlist
This story contains sexual content—please read with care. You are responsible for what you consume online.
You hadn’t said a word to her in weeks. Not since Jackson. Not since the blood. Not since you found out what she did.
Abby thought she'd be ready for the aftermath—Joel’s face haunting her dreams, her name spat like venom in town. But your silence? That hit deeper than any wound she’d ever taken.
You avoided her at base. Eyes down. Steps sharp. Not a glance. Not even hatred—just absence. It made her sick.
She knocked tonight anyway.
“Just talk to me,” Abby said through your door, voice low and wrecked. “Please.”
Nothing.
Abby stood there for minutes. She turned to leave—then froze when the door clicked open behind her.
Your eyes met. And it was like the air shattered. You were still wearing his jacket.
“Why are you here?” you asked, voice even but barely holding together.
Abby swallowed hard. “I didn’t come for a fight. I just…” Her voice cracked. “I miss you.”
You didn’t speak. Just stepped aside. Let her in like a storm you were too tired to fight.
She lingered by the table, arms stiff by her sides. “You won’t look at me,” she said. “You won’t yell. Won’t curse me out. Just… nothing.”
You sat on the couch. “What do you want from me, Abby?”
The name was a blade on your tongue.
She moved closer—slow, uncertain. “I want to explain.”
You let her. And she told you everything. Her dad. The Fireflies. Joel’s choice. Her own rage. When she finished, the silence was worse than before.
You stood. Crossed the room. She flinched when your hand brushed her cheek.
“I hate what you did,” you whispered. “I hate that I still want you.”
And something in her shattered.
The first kiss was desperate—salted with tears, teeth, regret. You shoved her back against the wall, hands tangling in her hair, lips fierce and unforgiving.
Abby groaned, fingers digging into your waist like she was scared you’d disappear. You bit her lip hard. She moaned.
“This doesn’t fix anything,” you hissed.
“I know,” she breathed, eyes dark. “But let me try anyway.”
You didn’t stop her when she sank to her knees. She tugged your pants down slowly, reverently, like she was asking for permission with every touch.
“I’m sorry,” she said against your inner thigh. “I’d take it back if I could. I’d undo all of it.”
You didn’t answer, but you didn’t push her away either. Her mouth was soft. Skilled. Every flick of her tongue was a plea for forgiveness.
You gasped, fisting her hair, thighs trembling.
“Fuck—Abby—”
She moaned at the sound of her name. You could feel her trembling too. She didn’t stop until you were wrecked—legs shaking, breath gone, body arched against the guilt and the heat between you.
And when you pulled her up and kissed her again, she cried into your mouth. You dragged her to bed. Tore her clothes off. Took your time making her fall apart—over and over again.
The air was thick with sweat, shame, and the unspoken truth that this might never be enough.
But it was something. It was real.
You woke tangled in her arms, her face buried in your neck like she couldn’t bear to let you go. You watched the sunrise in silence.
Then finally, softly: “I still don’t forgive you.”
Abby nodded against your skin. “I know.”
You turned to face her, touched her jaw.
“But I think I want to try.”
Nora told you exactly what she did. The brutality. The violence. You were disgusted despite knowing why she did it.
You don’t want to let her in. Not really. But the moment the door clicks shut behind you, every sharp edge of your silence softens—just a little.
She stands there, all tension and regret, like she’s trying to hold herself together for both of you. Maybe she’s the only one doing any holding right now.
“I didn’t come to make it worse,” Abby says, voice low, raw. “I just need you to hear me.”
You look away. “You don’t get to ask that. Not after everything.”
Her eyes flick down. “I know. I’m sorry. More than you can imagine.”
"You killed a girl's father Infront of her. You made her watch"
"He killed my dad"
Something twists inside you. You want to yell, to tell her to leave. But you just swallow and keep looking at the floor.
“I hate what you did,” you finally say, voice steady but cold. “And I hate that I still want you. It makes me sick.”
Abby’s breath catches. She takes a step closer, but you don’t flinch.
“why are you still here?” you ask, voice barely above a whisper.
She swallows, eyes searching yours like she’s trying to find a place to land. “Because I’m not ready to lose you.”
You don’t move. You don’t want to give her the satisfaction of seeing you crack. But inside, the walls are trembling.
“Why should I believe you?” you whisper, voice rough like gravel. “After everything you did, everything you took from her? Violence doesn't solve anything”
She steps closer, and you feel the heat of her breath. “Because I’m drowning in the same guilt. I carry it every second. Joel’s face, your silence... I don’t deserve you.”
You close your eyes for a moment, swallowing the lump in your throat. The truth is, you’ve missed her—the way she looked at you, fierce and broken all at once. But that only makes the ache worse.
“Maybe I want to hate you,” you admit, voice barely audible. “Maybe I want you to hurt like I do.”
Abby’s hands reach out slowly, trembling. “Then let me in. Let me be the reason you don’t have to carry it alone.”
Your heart is pounding, a wild, desperate rhythm that betrays your cold words. You push her hand away, but your body betrays you—your fingers twitch, wanting to touch her.
Her lips brush your neck, soft and tentative, and the ache spirals into something darker, something desperate.
You catch her mouth with yours, rough and urgent, like you’re trying to reclaim the pieces of yourself she holds hostage. Your hands thread through her hair, pulling her closer as your lips clash.
The taste of her—salt and something bittersweet—makes your knees weak. You break the kiss, gasping. “This doesn’t fix anything,” you choke out.
Abby’s voice is a whisper against your skin. “No. But maybe it’s a start.”
Her hands explore, tentative but hungry, trailing under your shirt like she’s memorizing every inch. You let go of some of the bitterness, the anger. Let the heat flood in and drown the cold for just a moment.
And when she sinks to her knees, the guilt and desire twist into a single, fierce need that can’t be denied.
Your breath hitches as she lowers herself, hands trembling but steady, like she’s asking for forgiveness with every touch. You don’t stop her—not because you forgive her yet, but because a part of you aches for this connection, this dangerous comfort.
Her mouth finds your skin, soft and worshipful, tracing a path that burns and soothes at the same time. You close your eyes, biting your lip to hold back a shudder.
“I don’t deserve this,” you whisper, voice rough.
Her hands clutch your hips tighter. “Maybe not. But I need this. Need you.”
You grip the back of her head, pulling her closer, desperate for something real in the chaos of guilt and rage. Her tongue flicks against your skin, and it’s like a spark igniting a wildfire beneath your ribs. You’re trembling, torn between pushing her away and pulling her deeper.
When she finally parts your clothing, her fingers brush over your skin like a promise — fragile but fierce. You gasp, caught between shame and want.
“Please,” she breathes, voice thick with need and regret.
You tremble but don’t say no.
Her mouth moves with reverence, worshipping every inch, every scar, every broken piece. You’re lost in the sensation, in the desperate heat that roars through you.
Your hands clutch her hair, pulling her up into a harsh, ragged kiss.
“I’m scared,” you confess, voice breaking. “Scared that I’ll never be okay. That I’ll never forgive.”
She kisses you harder. “Then I’ll keep fighting. For you. For us.”
The room hums with tension, desire, and the fragile hope that maybe, just maybe, you can find a way through the wreckage — together.
Your breath is ragged, heart pounding like it wants to break free from your chest. Every touch from Abby feels like fire and ice all at once—burning away the walls you built, but freezing the parts of you that still ache with pain. You pull back slightly, eyes searching hers, desperate for something to hold onto.
“I’ve been so angry,” you whisper, voice raw and cracked. “Angry at you, at him, at myself. Angry because I thought if I stayed furious, I could protect what’s left of me.”
Her hands tremble as they cup your face. “I never wanted to take that from you. I wanted to be the one you could lean on, even if you didn’t believe it.”
Tears sting your eyes. You don’t wipe them away. Letting them fall feels like admitting you’re human—broken, hurting, but still here.
“I hate what you did,” you confess, voice breaking, “but I hate carrying this anger even more. It’s like poison, and I’m tired of being sick.”
Abby leans in, her lips brushing yours with such gentleness it makes your chest ache. “Then let me help you heal. Let me be the cure, even if it takes forever.”
You close your eyes and let yourself believe it—for just a moment, you let the weight of the past fall away.
When you open them again, you’re quiet but sure.
“I forgive you,” you say, barely above a whisper. “Not because it’s easy. Not because I forget. But because I don’t want this anger to own me anymore.”
Abby’s breath catches. She pulls you close, arms wrapping around you like she’s never letting go.
In that moment, broken and whole all at once, you realize forgiveness isn’t a clean slate. It’s a choice. A hard, painful, beautiful choice to let go and try again.
And you’re ready to take it.
The morning light filters softly through the curtains, casting a warm glow over the room where you lie tangled in Abby’s arms. It’s quiet, but it’s not empty anymore.
You trace lazy circles on her back, feeling the steady rise and fall of her breath. The weight of yesterday’s confessions still lingers, but it’s lighter now—less a burden, more a fragile thread holding you both together.
You don’t pretend the past is gone. You know the scars remain, invisible to others but etched deep inside. But for the first time, those scars don’t feel like walls. They feel like part of the map—proof of how far you’ve come.
Abby shifts, resting her forehead against yours. “Thank you,” she murmurs.
You smile softly, heart swelling with something you thought was lost—hope.
“Thank you for not giving up.”
You don’t know what the future holds. Maybe there will be more pain, more fights, more moments where forgiveness feels impossible.
But right now, wrapped in this fragile peace, you decide it’s enough.
It’s enough to try. To live. To heal.
Together.

Pairing: ellie x fem!reader
requests are always open feel free to leave one and I'll take it from there:)
Warnings: reader being called annoying and pathetic and Ellie being a bitch
Summary: In which Ellie Williams made a big mistake
Authors note: maybe I should start posting twice a day??? Because I have so many requests lmao. Remember you are loved and to always be kind
I get used to ignoring
Closing the door and
Opening yours since
You've been clueless and honest
I wouldn't know the
First thing to say to you when you're here
"I love you" the text you sent Ellie read.
You loved her. You truly did. She was and will always be your one and only truly love.
The day you met Ellie, both of you felt an instant connection.
It started with a "hey" at a party and hours later the two of you were found stargazing and talking about anything and everything.
Your relationship with Ellie moved very quickly. Soon after meeting, you started dating and you practically lived with her.
Ellie always loved having you around, she always loved the way you ask her random questions. The way she'd find your hair all around her apartment after you'd gone home. The way you'd leave small trinkets as decorations.
Ellie loved everything about you.
But soon changed one night.
Ellie remembered coming home from work one night. She was exhausted. All Ellie wanted was some peace and quite but soon as she opened her front door she was met with your smiling face.
"Hi babe!" You said happily.
Ellie flinched as you brought her down for a hug.
Peace and quite.
That's all she wanted.
The rest of the night went down with you talking and asking her questions, and then begging her to cuddle.
Ellie looked down at your sleeping face and she realized just how fucking annoying you were.
You never gave her space.
Wherever she looked you were there. Wherever she breathed, you appeared.
All Ellie wanted was space and to be alone.
Ellie felt bad. She felt bad for finding you annoying when you have always been sweet and loving to her.
Out of all the relationships Ellie has been in, the one with you was the most special to her.
She couldn't leave you because she knew deep down she'll never find someone better than you.
Ellie tried ignoring you. Distancing herself from you. But it never worked. You'd always show up with a smile on your face asking what's wrong.
There were pieces of you everywhere in Ellie's apartment so you were never technically gone.
Ellie let out a sigh as she stared at the message you sent.
How does she reply to this?
You were always so genuine. So honest. You loved her but she doesn't feel anything for you anymore.
Should she lie and say she loved you back?
All Ellie did was reply with a heart emoji, and she switched off her phone.
You were clueless. Clueless that the love of your life didn't love you anymore. Clueless that Ellie hated you with everything within her and it made her sick being around you.
What Ellie is doing to you was sick. Staying in a relationship with someone you don't love was wrong. But Ellie didn't know how to leave.
How do you easily leave a 3 year relationship?
And Ellie didn't want to hurt your feelings.
How would she even start the conversation?
"Hey! I think you're annoying, let's break up!"
No. That would be a dick move.
At a point she couldn't get enough of you, now she couldn't stand looking at you.
I'll push away like I did like when I had you clear
It's the crux of the nature to crave what is not near
(I think I'm done)
(I think I'm done)
Having to hold your hand and keep you over the water
(I think I'm done)
(I think I'm done)
Having to hold your hand and keep you over
Ellie had a bad day.
She ran out of gas halfway to work, she spilled her coffee onto herself so she had to drive all the way home to change. She ended up being 3 hours late to work and she got into trouble. Ellie got yelled at, the printer didn't work, she missed her deadline, and she spilled coffee on herself again.
So yeah she had a shitty day.
Ellie sat in her car, with her head against the steering wheel. She let out a loud sigh.
She was so exhausted from today, that she wasn't sure that she could even get out the car.
She let out a groan when she heard her phone ring. Without checking she picked up her phone, and answered: "hello?" With an irritated tone.
"Ellie?" she heard you whimper from the other side.
She rolled her eyes.
You were fucking crying? Again?
"What happened?" she asked.
"Well I had a bad day" you started.
And Ellie lost it.
"You had a bad day? I had a worse one. You are so fucking overdramatic and annoying! Oh my God every time I hear your voice, I want to stab myself so bad "Oh Ellie I had a bad day"" she mimicked you after her rant.
"Well all of us have bad days so, shut the fuck up and grow up" she yelled.
Ellie was heavily breathing at this point. She was tired of looking after you. She was done holding your hand and being nice to you when you were a grown ass women.
She heard you sniffle on the other side of the phone.
"You can't even say anything" Ellie chuckled. "You're so fucking pathetic"
"You're being mean Els"
"I'm being honest"
A few seconds of silence filled the air before Ellie spoke again.
"Look I think we should break up, please come get your things, I'm so tired of this- of us"
"ok" was all you said before you hanged up.
Ellie felt relived. She felt free. She felt like she could think clearly again without you.
A few days later when Ellie got back from work she saw you in her apartment.
It looked empty without all your things. Her apartment didn't look like home anymore.
Ellie awkwardly, stood at the counter as she watched you pack the last box into your car.
You walked over to Ellie not saying a word, you didn't even make eye contact, as you lowered your set of keys into her hands.
Ellie watched as you turned around and walked to your car, not looking back at her.
"Hey! I'm sorry about how things ended" Ellie spoke.
She watched as you stopped and turned around to look at her. With teary eyes you gave her a smile and said "it's ok" And with that you got into your car and you drove away.
All Ellie did was hope that breaking up with you was the right thing to do.
Open up the window by my bed
Hoping you'll come crawling in like back then
Open up a window in my head
I'm hoping you'll infect me like you did back then
Did back then
I'll push away like I did when I had you clear
It's the crux of my nature to crave what is not near
Ellie opened the window and she let out a sigh as she gazed towards the stars.
She felt defeated. Tired. Angry. She felt regret. She felt empty.
Her apartment once filled with color, once filled with you, was empty.
It felt as empty as her heart did when you drove away that day.
She realized in that moment, the moment she saw the way your eyes teared, the way you said "it's ok" with smile, she knew she made a mistake.
Why would you smile with the women that broke your heart?
Ellie had hoped you'd crawl back to her. She'd hope you'd call her and tell her how much you missed her.
But you didn't.
It's been 6 months and you still had her blocked on everything.
Ellie hoped she'd see you again in public, so that she could run to you and say sorry.
But it was as if you had vanished.
They say you miss something when you've lost it and Ellie finally understands. Now that she has lost you, she realized what she had lost.
She'd never find someone so loving, so caring, so kind as you.
Ellie never hated you. She found you annoying but she soon realized that she took her stress and own problems out on you.
You didn't deserve that. You didn't deserve Ellie. You deserve someone better. Someone who could actually communicate with you.
What the two of you had was gone. And there was no what in hell that you'd be able to rekindle.
All Elle could do was look out her window and pray that maybe just maybe you'll come back.

Summary: In which you showed a loser, a great time
You brought the cigarette to your lips as you inhaled the smoke, your head rolled back as you blew it out from your lips.
You looked up and saw Ellie staring at you like a lost puppy.
"Have you ever done this before?" you asked her as you took another puff from your cigarette.
You watched as she shyly looked to the ground.
"Open your mouth and answer me Ellie" you demanded enjoying how easily you could make her nervous.
"n-no ma'am" she stuttered.
You chucked as you put out your cigarette on the ash tray beside you. Ellie watched your fingers as you lowered the cigarette, how delicate they looked, she wondered what they would feel like.
Ellie was snapped from her thoughts when she heard your voice.
"Come here"
You watched as she blinked a couple of times.
"Do I need to repeat myself?"
"no sorry" she mumbled and she made made her away towards you.
"Crawl"
"what?" Ellie looked at you with wide eyes.
She looked so fucking innocent. So pure. It turned you on so much knowing that you had the ability to destroy her.
"Get on the floor and crawl to me"
You sat back on the couch, you slightly opened your legs revealing the pink lace underwear you wore underneath your skirt.
"I can see your underwear" Ellie pointed out. She was trying to be respectful, but she couldn't take her eyes away from your clothed cunt.
"do you like it?" you asked.
A pink shade appeared on her cheeks as she looked down to her shoes. She let out a hum of agreement.
Yeah she did like it.
She wanted to see more.
"Come on Ellie get on your knees"
You watched as she fell to her knees, crawling to you like a dog. A smile appeared on your face as you watched the mighty Ellie Williams crawl towards you.
No one else but you.
Ellie sat directly in front of you staring at your pretty face waiting for her next instruction.
You opened up your legs, your lace panties practically see through at this point from how wet you were. You heard Ellie whimper as the sight.
"So pretty" she mumbled.
"wait till you see what's underneath" You spoke with a grin.
"Touch me Ellie"
Her hands immediately went to your underwear. She gently started rubbing you through your underwear.
Ellie watched as the damp spot on your underwear grow, and she felt her own arousal, her panties were so fucking wet and her thighs were slick with her own arousal.
You let out a soft moan as you felt her rub soft, slow and gentle circles. She leaned forward to leave a soft kiss on the clothed area.
Your body shuddered at the feeling.
Ellie started slowly making out with your clothed cunt, she just wanted a taste, but the stupid piece of fabric was in her way, it wasn't only making Ellie mad it was frustrating you too.
It was good but it wasn't enough to make you cum.
"Get up"
"what?" Ellie asked confused.
"Just get up"
She stood up in an instant watching you grab your phone.
You played in my feelings by Lana Del Rey as you lit another cigarette. You took another puff before slowly swaying your hips to the music.
"I'm smoking while I'm runnin' on my treadmill
But I'm cutting up roses
Could it be that I fell for another loser"
you sang as you continued to breathe in the smoke. You slowly started stripping, removing your shit, you briefly made eye contact with Ellie before her eyes fell to your chest.
You were wearing a matching pink lace bra, and Ellie felt herself dripping.
You slowly put the cigarette between your lips as you unclasped your bra. The piece of fabric fell to the floor as you heard Ellie out a quite "woah" at the sight of your chest.
Your hands came up to your chest as you took your breast into your palm, you slowly moved your hand up pinching your nipples, your head flew back the sensation.
You let out a moan, as you felt the buds harden under your touch.
Your hips continued to sway as you looked at Ellie and you pulled your skirt and panties off. You bent down, putting out the cigarette as you picked up your panties and you threw it towards her.
Ellie desperately caught it, bringing it to her nose. She breathed in the scent of your juices and she let out a loud moan. You watched as her eyes rolled to the back of her head before she stuffed your panties into her pocket.
"Please- please let me touch you"
You almost moaned at the sound of her begging.
You slowly made your way to the couch as you bent over, raising your ass and cunt into the air.
Easy access
As you were bent over you quickly made the music louder to drown out the sound of what was about to happen.
You looked over your shoulders seeing Ellie stare at you in awe.
What a fucking loser.
You slightly shook your ass.
"Come on Ellie isn't this what you wanted?"
Ellie fell to her knees immediately crawling to you. She faced your cunt she watched your swollen pussy clench around nothing.
You slightly jumped forward with a shocked moan when you felt Ellie lick a long stripe your pussy. Ellie had her eyes closed as she let out a moan.
"So wet" she muttered. After a few seconds of silence and no movement you suddenly felt Ellie's fingers open you up and before you could say anything she inserted her tongue into you.
You let out a moan, and quickly you felt a coil tighten in your stomach.
"fuckkkk... just like that pretty girl" you breathed out in a long moan.
You heard Ellie moan from behind you, and it send vibrations to your cunt. Your mouth fell open at the sensation.
Ellie put two fingers into your cunt as she continued sucking your clit and attacking your sensitive pussy with her tongue.
"Fuck- you're such a fucking loser" Ellie heard you talk above her. "You- you can't even talk to me I public now- now you're e-eating me out like I'm your last meal"
Ellie let out a moan at your words and she felt herself clench, she was going to cum and you didn't even touch her, how pathetic.
Ellie hit that special spot and you let out a high pitched moan.
"Right there baby, please don't stop"
Ellie fingers sped up, her sucking became harsher, and your moans grew louder.
You were close.
You clenched around Ellie's fingers, and she let out a loud moan. The vibrations triggered your orgasm.
You saw white and your whole body felt numb. You didn't feel real, it felt like you were floating- no flying actually. You felt so fucking good.
With heavy breathes, you opened your eyes and you breathed out a quick good girl to Ellie.
You turned around to face her as she lay on the floor, her eyes were closed but she had a huge smile on her face.
"Did you just come?" You asked Ellie as you heavily breathed.
You watched as she opened her eyes and she started at you for a few seconds.
"No"
"are you lying to me Ellie?"
"yeah... that was the hardest I ever came" she admitted.
"Aw poor baby, I didn't didn't touch her and she soaked her panties" you teased.
All Ellie did was look away shyly.
She anxiously played with her fingers. She wanted to ask you something. But she was so fucking terrified.
Maybe she was a fucking loser.
"Can we go again? Ellie asked, looking at you with a fucked out expression. Her lips were slightly swollen and glossy with her saliva and your cum.
Still heavily breathing you gave Ellie a smile.
"let me get a taste of you too pretty girl"
Authors note: well this sucked, I've never written smut and I'm so scared to publish it lmao, also two posts in one day???? wow I'm on another lever. Remember you are loved and to always be kind.
Yours truly,
Zia:)

warnings: none
Ellie sat on your bed as her fingers strummed her guitar as she patiently waited for you.
Ellie sat in her own self pity because of tonight. You were going out and Ellie had to stay here. She wanted to keep you here with her but that would be selfish.
Ellie knew she was a selfish girl, especially when it came to you, but she knew you needed the break. It would only be a few hours and then you'd be home soon, in Ellie's arms.
Whatever you want you'd get. And if you wanted a night out without Ellie, you would get it.
Ellie quietly hummed when she heard the shower turn off, her eyes lingered at the door waiting for you to walk out, her fingers stilled waiting in suspense.
The opened and hot steam seeped out of the room, and you walked out in all your glory.
Your hair was still dripping, leaving water droplets wherever you walked. Your body was covered in a white towel. You looked so pretty and relaxed, and as you entered the room the scent of your body wash consumed Ellie's senses.
"Hi els" you muttered when you noticed her eyes on you.
You heard her audibly gulp, before she looked back down at her guitar and replying with a simple “hi”.
You smiled at her shyness before you walked towards your vanity. You were going out tonight, you’ve been waiting for this moment for weeks, finally getting a break from your shitty job.
You deserved tonight.
Ellie knew she was being a perv, and this was definitely creepy but how could she look away when you looked like that.
She silently watched as you did your hair, she watched as you walked around the room choosing an outfit, She watched the way the water droplets on your shoulders went dry.
She shouldn’t be staring. That’s creepy, but how could you expect her to look away when you look like that.
god you were making this hard for her.
"You look like that one Lana Del Ray song"
"huh?"
Ellie's face turned read, she felt sweaty, her heart was going to explode out of her chest.
She wasn’t supposed to say that out loud.
Fuck.
"What did you say Ellie?"
She gulped once again before shyly meeting your gaze: "you look like that one Lana Del Rey song" "Which one els?"
Ellie looked away and you walked towards her, placing your hand under her chin, forcing her to meet her gaze.
"Tell me Ellie"
god you made her feel so small
"Um art deco….. yeah you're so art deco"
a small appeared on your face as you let go of her chin.
"thank you els... you think I look that pretty to be compared to a Lana song?"
"you're the prettiest, but right now, in this moment you look like that song. You could never be compared to anything because there's nothing that describes your beauty. I will never know how to describe you, but through music... it describes like- like a glimpse of what you look like"
When Ellie eventually met your gaze, you stood there jaw dropped.
"Anyway you should continue getting ready" Ellie shrugged, before she brought her fingers back to her guitar.
How could she say something like that and just go back to playing her guitar as if nothing happened?
You slowly walked back to your vanity as you looked at her through your mirror. You heard her play the melody of art deco and a smile spread onto your face as you went back to doing your makeup.
Ellie looked up from where she was playing to look at you do your makeup.
Both of you had the same thought:
How did you get so lucky?
Hi love would you mind making a part for professor!ellie where reader is pregnant again OR when their daughter grows up ?
Amazing work btw
Headcannons: professor!ellie williams x reader
masterlist
professor ellie masterlist
☆ Aurora’s favorite thing to do is sit on Ellie’s lap during her late-night grading sessions, asking questions like, “Are your students as smart as me?”
☆ She wears glasses just like Ellie now—reader thinks they’re twins.
☆ Aurora mimics Ellie’s mannerisms, like adjusting her glasses when she’s nervous or tilting her head when thinking.
☆ She already knows how to read short paragraphs and corrects people’s grammar—even Ellie’s, which makes her beam with pride.
☆ Aurora's drawings always include three people—Mama, Mommy, and her—but now a fourth baby blob is starting to appear in the corner labeled “Arny.”
☆ When you went into labor, Aurora tried to pack her own bag “to help,” which included crayons, a banana, and Ellie’s old lecture clicker.
☆ Ellie sometimes brings Aurora to campus events. She introduces her proudly with “This is my daughter. She’s smarter than my entire first-year class.”
☆ Aurora makes Ellie bracelets from string and demands she wear them even during lectures. She always does.
☆ Aurora asks science questions constantly. Ellie answers all of them with a whiteboard and diagrams.
☆ You once walked in on Aurora “lecturing” her stuffed animals, using Ellie’s tone exactly.
☆ Ellie writes down Aurora’s quotes in a leather-bound “Aurora Archive” journal.
☆ She refers to Ellie as “the smartest person alive” and you as “the prettiest.”
☆ Aurora’s handwriting practice turned into a full essay on why “Mommy Ellie is too bossy, but I still love her.”
☆ Ellie was obsessively thorough about the IVF process, reading every published study on embryo grading, success rates, and maternal health. She made color-coded charts for each clinic they considered.
☆ The decision to have a second child came after Aurora turned five, when she looked up at them one night and asked, “Why don’t I have a baby brother or sister?”
☆ Ellie wanted a boy this time, not because she loved Aurora any less, but because she was fascinated by how different he might be — still theirs, but uniquely his own.
☆ You carried Arnold, just like with Aurora, and Ellie was even more attentive this time—bringing snacks, checking nutrient levels, monitoring stress like a hawk.
☆ You used the same donor, ensuring Arnold and Aurora were biologically related, and Ellie cried when they found out the embryo had successfully implanted.
☆ Ellie held her breath during every scan, gripping your hand tightly until they saw that tiny heartbeat flicker on the screen.
☆ At home, Ellie converted her study into a nursery months before it was needed, painting it a rich forest green and hanging hand-painted space-themed art on the walls.
☆ She read academic articles aloud to your belly, mumbling about epigenetics and language development, hoping Arnold would be a little genius like his sister.
☆ Aurora would whisper secrets to her unborn brother, telling him what not to do so “Mama doesn’t freak out.”
☆ You and Ellie filmed short video diaries for Arnold, each one ending with Aurora saying, “Hurry up and come out, dummy.”
☆ Your pregnancy with Arnold was harder than Aurora’s — more nausea, more exhaustion — and Ellie handled everything from meals to laundry to carrying you to bed if you fell asleep on the couch.
☆ Ellie barely slept the night you went into labor, pacing in circles around their bedroom and triple-checking the hospital bag every 10 minutes.
☆ When Arnold was born, Ellie was the first to cry, trembling as she cut the umbilical cord and kissed your sweaty forehead, whispering, “You did it. He’s here.”
☆ Arnold was a quiet baby—unlike his fiery older sister—and when the nurse handed him to Ellie, he blinked up at her with wide, moss-green eyes.
☆ Aurora was the first to hold Arnold after them, sitting carefully on the hospital bed, her small arms wrapped awkwardly around her baby brother, declaring, “He smells weird. But he’s cute.”
☆ Ellie took an extended sabbatical from the university, something she never did for herself, but did without hesitation for Arnold and you.
☆ She kept a detailed baby log, recording every feeding, nap, and developmental milestone like it was groundbreaking research. (“He smiled at 4 weeks. Do you know how rare that is?”)
☆ You would often find Ellie in the middle of the night, swaying gently in the rocking chair with Arnold on her chest, whispering about constellations and music theory.
☆ Aurora helped with diaper changes, read bedtime stories to Arnold (whether he was awake or not), and told everyone at school, “I have a brother. He’s gonna be smarter than all of you.”
☆ Ellie constantly takes pictures of the three of you—you nursing, Aurora playing peekaboo, Arnold asleep on Ellie’s chest. She prints them, dates them, and keeps them in a growing archive labeled The Love We Made.
☆ Arnold has Ellie wrapped around his tiny fingers already—she holds him like he’s made of glass.
☆ She was an emotional wreck the day he was born, whispering “You’re here. You’re real,” over and over.
☆ Ellie sobbed in the hospital bathroom, clutching a photo of Aurora and trying to calm her nerves before holding Arnold for the first time.
☆ She made laminated feeding/diapering schedules and color-coded copies for both reader and herself.
☆ Ellie insisted on staying awake every night at first. You had to force her to rest by dragging her to bed.
☆ Her obsession with checking his breathing every 20 minutes has led to installing four different monitors.
☆ Ellie reads academic articles to him during nap time—“gotta start the kid early.”
☆ His nursery is space-themed. Ellie picked every star and constellation herself and even made a mobile from scratch.
☆ She prints out graphs of his growth and annotates them.
☆ You caught Ellie softly kissing Arnold’s forehead while murmuring, “I’ll protect you forever. I promise.”
☆ She calls him “my little theory” because she wants to “test how much love a person can feel before they combust.”
☆ Ellie holds Arnold for hours while writing lectures one-handed, content even if it takes twice as long.
☆ She talks about him constantly at work—“Sorry my email’s late. My son drooled on my laptop.”
☆ Ellie insisted on giving him a middle name that references a philosopher—Arnold Pascal Williams.
☆ She puts little leather-bound books in his crib for aesthetic photos.
☆ Ellie made a password-protected photo archive titled “Arnold Growth Logs.”
☆ She has framed side-by-side ultrasound pictures of Aurora and Arnold on her office wall.
☆ You found Ellie singing lullabies in Hebrew and Latin just for “academic diversity.”
☆ She’s more patient with Arnold than she’s ever been with anyone.
☆ Ellie’s phone is overloaded with baby pics—she has a folder just labeled “Arnsmol.”
☆ She wrote a 10-page email to the pediatrician just asking about sleep regression.
☆ Ellie gets extremely possessive when someone other than you or Aurora holds Arnold.
☆ Her glasses fog up when she gets overwhelmed watching both kids together.
☆ Arnold’s first smile made Ellie go silent for ten minutes, then cry like a waterfall.
☆ She lowkey competes with you over who Arnold calms down with faster.
☆ She stares at you when she’s breastfeeding, completely mesmerized.
☆ Ellie reads textbooks on postpartum care so she can understand everything reader is experiencing.
☆ She canceled her own faculty conference trip because Arnold had a cold.
☆ Ellie redesigned her lecture schedule so she never misses bedtime for either child.
☆ Ellie’s gone full mama bear—she snapped at a stranger who called Arnold “it.”
☆ She started a private blog documenting her “Motherhood and Academia” journey, but only you have the link.
☆ Ellie sometimes forgets to eat if the baby’s crying—but never forgets to feed him.
☆ You teases Ellie about her “unofficial PhD in parenting.” Ellie secretly loves it.
☆ Arnold’s first laugh made Ellie record five videos trying to recreate the sound.
☆ She leaves love notes inside your breast pump bag.
☆ She wants to homeschool both kids—your not fully convinced yet.
☆ Ellie smells Arnold’s head constantly. Says it’s “baby serotonin.”
☆ Ellie cried when Aurora said “Arnold is my best friend forever.”
☆ She’s started humming lullabies even while writing lectures now.
☆ She talks to Arnold about how they’ll build rockets or dissect frogs together someday.
☆ Ellie calls Aurora and Arnold her “entire thesis on love.”
☆ She still panics during diaper changes—even though she’s read three parenting books.
☆ Ellie smells like baby lotion, chalkboard dust, and coffee now.
☆ Her voice softens immediately when either kid cries.
☆ Ellie doodles tiny versions of Aurora and Arnold in her margins during meetings.
☆ Ellie sometimes stares at you and just whispers, “How did I get this lucky?”
☆ She tells Arnold he looks like you, then whispers, “thank god.”
☆ Ellie calls their family of four “the most important study she’ll ever conduct.”
