A/N: Hey loves...I'm this super huge Boston fan and my heart aches today. I wanted to be lighter...so here is something quick. Sending lots of love out today!


Quiet Your Mind (Zac Brown Band)


There was a strange popping and squealing noise in my head as she showed me what she had been doing to herself.

Years of scars...some so bad that the scars were raised.

It had started after the boob job...the pain had become a release but it got so bad at one point that she ended up in the hospital.

Her parents had her in counseling and apparently used to check her body for new scars.

At least that was until she started dating Britt openly.

She was happier and less reckless.

I fought tears as she spread ointment on the newest scratches.

They had scabbed over but they looked painful.

Right then, she was so far away from me, even with her knees touching my own.


"San?" I finally managed to squeak out.

"Hmm?" She said as she finally lifted her eyes to meet mine.

"You don't...in L.A...it's you and me baby. I know pain. I know what it feels like to be filled with so much stuff that you could explode...I know what it's like to hold it all in..."

She nodded and wiped at her cheek before flashing a small smile.

"I know."

"Good." I leaned forward and held her face between my palms. "I want you to come to me...anytime that you feel dark and alone...come to me. Where you go, I go."

"Yea?" She whispered.

"Definitely."


Her lips pressed soft, sweet kisses along my neck as I buried my hand in her tangle of curls.

"I love you. I love you. I love you." I whispered as I ran my fingers over her back.

"Promise me?" She finally said as she hovered over me.

"I promise you...that I will always unequivocally love you until my last breath."

We were silent as we stared into the other's eyes.

There were sparks between us in that moment that would go unmatched in our lives.

She was me and I was her...together or apart.


"Harder." I groaned as she slipped her fingers inside of me.

"Like this?"

And then she slammed into me so hard that my body practically lifted from the mattress.

"Oh...YES!" I screamed out.

After that the pounding of the headboard mixed with our panting was all that could be heard as we loved.

Exhausted and sated we climbed into the shower at sunrise feeling like different people.

Before she could speak a single word, I gripped her cheeks and pressed my lips to hers.

I wanted all of her pain and sadness...I wanted to light all of her darkness.

It was strange how much I was willing to do for her.

But it all made perfect sense.

She was just everything that I wanted and I wanted to be everything that she needed.


The canyon had been a big hole in the ground and after seeing it and taking pictures of it...she was over it.

Thankfully.

My parents had brought me to that stupid hole in the ground every year until I was twelve.

I hadn't wanted to spoil that for her.

Once we were back on the road, we enjoyed the heat of the sun and the ride.

At one point while she was driving she was squirming in her seat and asked me to go down on her...and so I did.

It was the scariest experience of my life but the sound of her breathing and cursing was enough to make me cum without even being touched.


I had been exhausted when we finally got to the beach house but she wanted to go down to the beach.

With her in such high spirits and that bit of darkness still in her eyes...I couldn't say no.

Instead, I took her hand in mine and happily walked towards the shore with her.

The water bubbled around our feet as we watched the sunset.

She swayed a bit and grinned.

"Are you happy, Q?"

"With you...I know nothing else but happy, San."

"Yea?"

"Yea."

"This...it's amazing."

"It is."

"Do you want to go have hot sex now?" She suddenly turned to me with a grin.

"All you had to do was ask."
