Manipulation (Sequel To Total Control)

A/n

Another one of these, I know, kill me already.

I know I promised more chapters this holidays and you haven't gotten them. And I'm sorry. There should be one tomorrow. There will be one tomorrow, actually.

But I wanted to take this chance to wish everyone a Happy New Year.
And I hope that whoever is going through a rough time, I hope it gets better for you, and better than you hoped for. I know it isn't easy when you have things going on in your life that feels like only you could understand. But the truth is, you're not alone.

What can help is finding the right people to open up to. Like a little family on the internet. People who share similar things with you.

I should probably be the last person giving advice on this, but I've seen all the conversations that go down in the comments. The reason I never joined in them is because I don't know the first thing about that.

But I hope you guys take my advice, and I hope you all get the happiness you deserve.

With that being said, this year for me has been...quite the ride. I've made a lot of friends here. Too many to remember all of your names, I'm sorry. I'm terrible with names.

But I know my Pun Club is bound to be here. All of you, all amazing in your own way. Talented, kind and just sun amazing people.

All those who did fanart for the books, a huge thank you. Honesty never thought that that could ever happen. But it means so much.

Everyone who I've inspired in one way or the next. Never thought I'd be able to do that either, and it's amazing to know.

And of course, all 287 of my followers. (287,when did that happen. You guys know I don't check the numbers). Thank you so much for thinking that I'm worthy enough to be followed.

And again, for anyone who's going through a rough time, you're not alone. (Now only if I could take my own advice XD )

I know everyone always goes why this new years resolutions shit, but I've tried, never worked out for me. Then again, it's probably because I aimed too high XD.

So, what I'm gonna work on for he new year is trying to keep my mind intact. That's an every year sort of thing by now. I know, I may seem all happy-go-lucky but I almost literally lost my mind this year. It's not been the best, it's actually been the worst.

And I'm not joking when I say that.

I didn't know it was this hard to be happy. Or even keep your sanity. So, trying to be happier in the new year is a resolution too.

But there were some good moments of this year.
Like having all of you guys here.
I actually have a boyfriend, my first one at that. Which is still baffling.
I'm still alive.
I'm not completely insane.

...OK not as much as I thought. But they were still good.

Hopefully, I'll still be sane this time round next year, or even alive. XD.

Anyways, more to come, but until then, BYYEE!!

🎆🎆🎇🎇🎉🎉✨✨AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!!  ✨✨🎉🎉🎇🎇🎆🎆
