relax, baby || jack harlow x reader
it had only been a couple weeks into your fall semester and you already felt yourself falling behind. you found yourself waking up earlier each morning just to get a few extra minutes at the library, as well as staying up later than usual, shuffling through your never ending list of assignments and attempting to catch up on your readings.
you were beyond stressed to say the least and jack took immediate notice of this.
he hated seeing you get like this, especially with how much he knew you already struggled with your mental health. every semester for the last three years he watched as you shut yourself out from everyone, spending ever waking hour studying and prioritizing receiving an A mark in every class over taking care of yourself. he knew how stubborn you could be, but this semester he wasn’t going down without a fight. he was going to get you to step away from that mountain of textbooks sitting on your desk and finally have you relax.

it was approaching midnight and you were on your fifth consecutive hour of studying.
jack watched as you tiredly typed away on your computer, trying to finish a paper for your psych class before the sun came up. 
he decided then that you needed a break, walking over to were you sat hunched over a book that probably weighed ten pounds. he threw the book aside, swiftly lifting you into his arms.
you let out a squeal from suddenly being picked up and thrown over your boyfriend’s shoulder. “jackman, what are you doing? put me down! i need to finish my paper!”
“nope,” he simply replied. “you need to take a break, baby. you’re working yourself too hard.”
“i promise i’ll take a break once i’m done but i need to finish this.” you tried to counter, but jack was as stubborn as you were and he wasn’t taking no for an answer.
“the paper will still be there in the morning, after you’ve relaxed and had a good nights sleep. and i’m sure you’ll be much happier with what you write after you’re well rested, bub. you need to get some rest, please baby, for me.” jack was almost begging at this point. he hadn’t seen that usual glimmer in your eyes in days, let alone that smile that never failed to light up the room. he missed it, and he missed you.
you accepted defeat as jack continued to carefully carry you into the bathroom that was connected to your shared bedroom.
he softly set you down on the counter before he walked towards the tub, starting a bath for you. you watched with love in your eyes as jack moved around the room, grabbing your favorite bubble bath, that was only to be used on special occasions, along with a fresh, warm towel straight out of the dryer. he was always so good to you and you absolutely adored him for it.
once the bath was filled enough, he helped you undress before assisting you into the warm water.
he turned to walk away once you were settled in, but you quickly grabbed ahold of his wrist asking him to stay.
“of course, baby. i’ll be right back. just going to throw a sweatshirt in the dryer for you so it’s warm when you come out.”
he exited the room and returned only a few minutes later, although it felt like much longer to you, with one of your favorite scented candles in his hand to light. you smiled to yourself, his sweetness was never ending and you couldn’t help but fall more in love with every small, caring gesture he made.
you didn’t realize you had been staring as he stripped and joined you in the tub. “like what you see, baby.” jack teased with a smirk on his face that caused you to blush.
“you know i do,” you admitted quietly, the warmth rising to your cheeks.
* ࣪. ⋆ ✧ ゚: * ♡ * : ゚✧ ⋆ ࣪.* ࣪ ♡ ࣪.* ࣪ ⋆ ✧ ゚: * ♡ * : ゚✧ ⋆ ࣪.*
you stayed in the bath with jack resting behind you, and your bodies intertwined until the water became too cold to find relaxing any longer.
jack got out first, quickly drying himself off before holding out a hand to help you get out of the bath. once you were out, he wrapped you up in a towel and guided you to sit back on the counter so he could help you complete your nighttime routine.
he situated himself between your legs, grabbing your toothbrush from behind you, wetting it before putting a line of toothpaste on it and, of course, wetting it again. he helped you brush your teeth, and even held your hair back so you could spit into the sink when he was finished.
he then pulled out your face wash and night cream, softly applying them to your skin, all before placing a quick peck to your lips. “beautiful, baby.”
once he was finished with that, he picked you up, carrying you back into the bedroom, slipping one of his old hoodies over you head that was extra cozy, having been fresh out of the dryer.
you cuddled up close to him, throwing you leg over his and wrapping your arm around his waist. his hand found it’s way to your head, giving you a scalp massage that had your eyes rolling to the back of you head. you didn’t realize how much you needed this relaxation until now.
jack continued to give you a head massage until you breathing stilled and he heard faint snores, the most adorable snores might he add, falling from your lips.
he smiled to himself in victory that he finally got you to rest.
he placed a gentle kiss to your forehead, whispering a faint, “good night, baby. i love you,” before falling asleep himself.
Dear Humanity,
I hope this message finds you well. 💟
My name is Hazem, and I’m reaching out to you from Gaza 🇵🇸🍉, where my family and I are living under extremely difficult conditions due to the ongoing conflict. Asking for help isn’t easy, but in these harsh circumstances, your support could make a real difference in our lives.
I am doing everything I can to care for my family of 11, who depend on me to survive amidst this catastrophic situation.
My brother Samer urgently needs expensive medical treatment, and we are suffering from malnutrition and water contamination. Additionally, the education of three family members has come to a halt, and we are in dire need of a new tent to protect us from the winter cold.
Please consider contributing to our campaign or sharing it with others!

“mommy, can i have this?” alora asked pointing towards the fruit snacks in the candy bowl.
“after dinner bubby.” y/n said adding the beef to the lasagna.
alora huffed and walked out the kitchen to play with her toys.
she looked at her papa who was busy on his computer, doing god knows what for work.
she whined knowing she wouldn’t get what she wanted because her mom isn’t the type to spoil her that much.
“papa, can you get me candy please?” she asked putting her chubby hands on his legs, looking up at him innocently.
“of course bubs.” he said, picking her up and setting her on the couch.
he walked into the kitchen opening the pantry and grabbing two packs of fruit snacks.
“thank you papa!” alora said standing up on the couch to grab them from his hand.
“your welcome my love.” he said bending down to give her a forehead kiss before getting back to work.
“dinner will be ready in about an hour- what the hell?” y/n stopped mid sentence.
“what happened?” jack asked looking at her confused.
“why are you eating candy after i told you to wait after dinner?” y/n asked crossing her arms.
alora immediately hid in her dad’s neck. she always did that when she knew she was in trouble.
“alora you are something else.” jack said with a laugh. you just rolled your eyes and sat next to him on the couch.
“your not in trouble bub, but when mommy says no you listen okay?” jack said to the four year old.
“i’m good baby, don’t let it happen again though.” y/n said running her fingers through alora’s curls.
“okay papa.” and she turned to her mom offering her a gummy but she declined.

"The sun is setting and you're right here by my side and the movie is playing but we won't be watching tonight."
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!" Y/n gushed as she finished setting up the area for their movie night.
"Coming!" Jack yelled grabbing their favorite snacks and making his way over.
He sat down right next to his girlfriend and wrapped an arm around her.
"What movie genre babe?" Y/n said turning hulu on.
"I don't know, maybe a horror movie?" Jack said taking the remote out of y/n's hand.
"You know how I feel about scary stuff." Y/n whined pushing Jacks head softly.
"Well you shouldn't have asked." Jack winked scrolling through the options.
He picked a random horror movie & as expected y/n was feeling quite antsy.
They were only thirty minutes into the movie and Y/n kept hiding in Jack's neck.
"Jack can we please watch something else?" Y/n said into his neck.
"Okay y/n." Jack said exiting out of the movie, scrolling through other genres.
"Thank you." Y/n smiled kissing jacks cheek.
"He's so bossy, he makes me dance tryna sit in the back of his whip and just cancel my plans."
"Fuck me please!" Y/n moaned grinding onto his clothed crotch.
"We can't your gonna be late for your meeting!" Jack said holding onto her hips.
"Fuck a meeting, your my priority right now." Y/n responded kissing down her lover's neck.
"No love you have to go, we can continue this at home." Jack said grabbing her neck and kissing her.
"Fine." Y/n said slowly crawling to the front seat. She giggled when she felt Jack smack her ass.
"He knows just what it does when he's holding me tight and he calls me moonlight too."
"Are you sure you don't want my jacket?" Jack asked holding it up.
"No i'm okay." Y/n said shivering slightly.
Jack shook his head and wrapped his jacket around her.
"You don't have to lie moonlight." Jack said pecking his lover's cheek.

How to use reverse psychology to get your desires
Hey y’all, this is for the people who feel utterly exhausted by their spiritual journey. Whether you’re struggling to manifest your dreams, tapping into the void state, or lucid dreaming every night, I totally get it. But you can use your frustration to your advantage.
So, I’ve been really into reverse psychology and that’s what this “technique” is. For those of you who feel stuck or frustrated, this might be just what you need. Your annoyance could actually become your greatest ally.
Keep complaining. Script it out, affirm it, vent it to your friends, but just the opposite of what you’re already saying. Say things like "Ugh I'm so tired of always easily slipping into the void state" or "If I lucid dream one more time, I'm going to lose my mind!".
Here's an example of how you can do it:
"Bruh, I'm so done with waking up in the void state. Each morning is the same story - I'm tired of it! And let's not even talk about how I lucid dream every single night. It's exhausting being conscious all the time, and it's starting to annoy me and tire me out. I just want one peaceful night without lucid dreaming or getting into the void state. Is that too much to ask? I can’t even escape the void state with lucid dreaming!”
You can apply this same principle to shifting as well. Express your frustration:
"Why does my subconscious always feel the need to wake me up in my dr 🙄For once, I want to focus on my cr. If I wake up in my dr one more time, I swear... Can't my subconscious for once let me wake up in my cr?"
Even visualize yourself waking up in your normal bed and plead with your subconscious to let you wake up in your cr for once.Channel your current frustration into not waking up in your dr to always doing it. You should end up feeling frustrated when you actually go to bed, trying to NOT be successful for once.
Make it realistic too. honestly? I'm just so tired of shifting with ease. It's gotten to the point where it feels mundane. There was a time when struggling with the void state was actually exciting, it kept things interesting at least. I know this might come off as a "ugh, I'm too pretty everyone hates me" pick-me-girl moment, but seriously, I could do with a little less success in the shifting department. Y’all wouldn’t understand how hard it is to be successful 24/7. Genuinely be annoying about it lol.
So, go ahead. Complain. Vent. Be frustrated. You’re way too successful with manifesting and shifting and need a break. I get it, shut up. We don’t care.👍
