Le plus pur, le plus émouvant

Kinktober Day 6: Omegaverse

Pairing: Alpha!Ransom Drysdale x wife!Omega Reader (YNGDTTGA)

Words: ~1.7k

Summary: You need your Alpha

Warnings: MAJOR SPOILERS FOR YOU’LL NEVER GO DOWN TO THE GODS AGAIN, explicit language, explicit sexual content (unprotected vaginal sex, soft sex), mention of post-pregnancy symptoms, very soft protective Ransom with just a hint of soft!dark, anxiety, SMUT!!! 18+ ONLY!!!

A/N: Mentioned above but there are massive spoilers for the future of Ransom and bunny so if you want to read the story chronologically, skip this one!

I am no longer doing taglists so if you want to stay up to date on all the latest filth, follow my sideblog @the-iceni-library and turn on notifications!

You couldn’t stop pacing as you waited for your Alpha to come home, the frustration and anger you had felt through the bond all afternoon making it almost impossible for you to stay in your nest with your pup even though he had told you he wanted you to rest. But you couldn’t when you were constantly feeling that thread of agitation tugging at your hindbrain, knowing that he must have been especially upset if he wasn’t able to mask the bond.

He was close now, you could feel him, cooing and purring unconsciously to try to soothe yourself and your pup when you felt her stir against your chest as you kept rocking her gently. Hopefully he wouldn’t be angry at you for not letting the nanny take her when you left the nest, but the only thing that managed to keep you even slightly calm when he wasn’t there was feeling her tiny heartbeat fluttering against your chest. She was so precious and small and you didn’t trust anyone else to take care of her.

Then you heard the slam of a car door and keened when you felt his presence drawing nearer, kissing the top of your baby’s head and trying to take deep breaths while you braced yourself to greet your Alpha. As soon as the door opened and you saw him you started to feel better, the sight of his face relaxing when he set eyes on you making you preen as you shuffled to meet him.

“No, bunny, what are you doing out of the nest?” The stress of having to deal with fucking asshole congressmen all day disappeared immediately when he saw you, dropping his case and rushing to you when he heard you let out another distressed sound. “Where the fuck is the nanny? And your nurse? I’m gonna tear that fucking agency apart…”

“I was so worried, I could feel how angry you were.” You whimpered when he scooped your little girl into one arm while he wrapped the other around your waist, chirping when he scented your hair and running your hands over his chest. “Who made you so upset? My Alpha, I hate when you’re not here.”

“Oh god, bunny, I know, shh.” Ransom tried not to snarl openly when the nanny finally showed up and took the babe from him, crooning softly at you when you tried to reach out for her as he wrapped you in his arms and slid a hand to cradle the back of your neck. “She’s asleep, it’s okay. I’m done with this bill now, bunny, I won’t have to leave you again for a long time, I promise.”

“Ha-hate it, need you.” You gazed up at him with watery eyes as you let out a pathetic little hiccup, gripping the front of his shirt in your fists and rising on your tiptoes so you could scent his neck. “We both need you, don’t feel safe when you’re not here, my Alpha.”

“Bunny, baby, I’m here. I’d never let anything happen to you.” He let his chest rumble against yours when he heard you whimper, kissing the crown of your head and trying to send soothing reassurance through the bond. “Do you want me to hire more security, bun? I’ll do whatever you want.”

“I just want you.” You trilled when his fingers brushed over your mark, kissing the hollow of his throat and winding your arms around him while you tried your best to crawl into his skin. “You’re the only one who can protect us, only one I trust. Our nest is so empty when you’re not here.”

“I know, sweet bunny, I’m sorry.” Ransom chuffed when he finally felt you starting to relax, rubbing his cheek against your temple and holding the nape of your neck before tilting your face up as he kept trying to calm you. “My Omega.”

His fingers pressed on your gland and you melted instantly, sighing when he lifted you off the ground and started to carry you towards your bedroom. When he scruffed you like this it made you feel like you were floating, purring as you nuzzled at his chest and squeezed your thighs together when slick started leaking out of you.

Ransom really did hate leaving you, even before he’d finally managed to breed you. You were so sensitive and soft and ever since you had the baby you were even more prone to anxiety, the scandal that surrounded your wedding and all the court hearings leading you to withdraw even more until you refused to leave the house unless it was absolutely necessary. He did love that, though, knowing that you were protected and that none of those fucking activists could try to make a mascot out of you. You were his, he never wanted anyone else to touch you ever again.

“Alpha…” your voice was low and sultry and full of need when he finally laid you down in your nest, the combined scent of both of you along with his weight on top of you making you feel safe and sated, your limbs curling around him once he finally slid out of his clothes and started pressing his lips to your skin.

“Tell me what you need, Omega.” He kissed the insides of your wrists softly and purred when you chirped for him, rubbing his nose up your arm until he could bury his face in your throat and inhale your scent, his nostrils flaring when even more slick poured out of you and stained your sheets. “My ‘Mega, lemme take care of you. Are you swollen at all, bunny? When was the last time she ate?”

“‘M okay, oh!” You gasped when he unbuttoned the front of your nightgown and cupped your breasts as he kept chuffing into your hair, your tongue sliding across your bottom lip as you writhed underneath him. “She ate just a few hours ago… please, I need your knot, Alpha, always feel better when you’re inside me, my Alpha.”

“Omegamine, shhhhhhh.” Ransom crooned against your cheek as he rolled you onto your side, settling behind you and running his hands over your shoulders as he pressed his lips to the mark of your bond while you melted into him. “My good girl, so sweet for me, so warm.”

The feeling of your soft cunt stretching to take him as he slid inside you almost made him lose it, his lips increasing their pressure on your gland as you arched your back and let your body sink into him. He was still so tender with you, though, gently cradling your chin in one hand while the other held your waist as he slowly rocked his hips into you.

Every soothing sound he made against your skin was like a balm for your heart, the waves of affection and love and calm he was sending through the bond making warmth bloom in your chest. You never felt more content than when you were full of him, cooing and whimpering every time his hips met yours as you leaned your cheek in his palm.

Ransom groaned when he felt your cunt start to clench around him in waves, the arm around your waist pulling you closer as his lips trailed over the back of your neck. He let you press your body back into his as he kept slowly moving, knowing how much better you felt when as much of your skin as possible was touching his.

“My good girl, letting me take care of you, giving you what you need, my ‘mega.” His teeth scraped over your mark and you let out a long whine, gushing all over his cock and letting your eyes flutter closed as you lost yourself in him. “You feel better, bunny? I know you do, know how to take care of my ‘mega, what this sweet body needs. Tell me how it feels, bunny.”

“Alpha, it’s so good, so full.” You were floating at this point, nothing in your brain but your Alpha and his cock and the way he held you so gently and made you feel loved. “Don’t stop, don’t leave me.”

“Never, I’ll never leave you, bunny.” He felt tears starting to leak down your cheeks and rumbled to soothe you, sucking on your gland and waiting until he felt pure bliss starting to seep through the bond before he sank his teeth into your mark.

Your entire body vibrated as you fell apart with a choked off wail, your pussy fluttering wildly and milking Ransom’s cock while you deepened the arch in your back and begged him for more. He knew what the change in your breathing meant, what you wanted when you made that soft breathy whine. Ransom rolled you onto your stomach as he kept his body pressed close to yours, driving into you slow and deep and keeping his teeth sunk into your mark as he grew closer to his own pleasure.

The only warning you had was a soft grunt he let out into your skin before his knot swelled and his cum started spurting into your swollen cunt, sinking into the bed with a moan when he locked inside you even as his hips kept rolling against your ass. You purred when he wound his fingers through yours once he was finished, turning your head so he could nuzzle at your cheek while he breathed heavily.

“My bunny, is that better?” He kissed your temple and smiled softly when you nodded, rolling you back onto your sides as his knot started to go down but he kept himself buried in your soft heat. “Do you need food? Water? I know you have trouble eating when you’re worried, bunny.”

“Mm, I am hungry, Alpha.” You sighed when he pulled out of you, letting him grab a warm cloth to clean between your legs before he helped you pull your nightgown back on and tucked you under the blankets. “I want her back, Alpha, please?”

“Of course, bunny, whatever you need.” Ransom kissed you softly before pulling on a pair of sweats and heading towards the kitchen, he was going to have to call Rogers about keeping the fucking lobbyists off his back until it was time for the vote, there was no way he was leaving you again until he knew the fucking staff he hired to take care of you could do their fucking jobs.

I love that it’s Ari who’s shy about this, rather than reader 💙

Fitness

Pairing: Ari x Reader

Warnings: None

Summary: You are planning to cancel you're gym membership but then you meet Ari

WC: 1.6K

A/N: This is for Navy & Roo's @the-slumberparty this was from a generator or prompt list before the challenge actually started. My prompt was Active.

That's it you were done. All the new year, new you nonsense was over.

You used to spend so much time setting resolutions, unrealistic ones at that, not meeting them and then beating yourself up about it. But you were different now. Thanks to all the work you'd been doing on yourself, mentally and emotionally, you were in a much better place. You were learning to love the body you were in and you wanted to take better care of it. No you didn’t have any weight loss goals. What you wanted was to move your body in ways that felt good. To build up your strength and endurance. You wanted to be stronger and you couldn’t do that if you were feeling self conscious in a gym full of people.

Once you realized it was the gym itself that made you nervous you found alternative ways to work out. You’d started working out at home with short YouTube videos and were going on lots of walks and even a couple short hikes. Who needs those fancy confusing machines? Not you. Which is why it was time to cancel this membership. To be honest you signed up online last year and never even stepped foot in the place. It was an unnecessary expense, but not anymore!

Unfortunately they wouldn’t let you cancel online so you are here to do it in person. Maybe as a treat you’ll go out nice for dinner. After all, you'll have an extra $35 bucks a month in your pocket once you got this sorted.

Going up to the door you're almost knocked over by some gym bro rushing out. Yuck . This is exactly why you are leaving too much testosterone.

As you enter you take in the place there is pop music playing over the speakers. Lots of cardio machines and weight machines and of course free weights. But there's something about this place that's different. You expected to see an endless sea of muscle tees and hear lots of grunting from John Cena looking guys. Or smaller guys who imagined they could look like John Cena if they tried hard enough. But today in this gym there were a lot of women. A curious number in fact since there was a women's only gym on the other side of town. At least you thought there was.

Huh, maybe it closed. Shrugging to yourself you start to make your way to the front desk.

On your way you pass what you assume to be the smoothie bar. Behind which a handsome dark skin man with bright eyes and an easy smile is making drinks for about 5 different women. Huh, maybe you’ll grab something on the way out.

You’re waiting at the front desk for someone to help you. You would go ask smoothie guy but he’s clearly preoccupied…

“Hi, can I help you?”

Turning around every thought you had drifts out of your head as you lock eyes with what could only be a beautiful figment of your imagination. 6’2” maybe 6’3” shaggy brown hair and a thick beard. You’ve never really been into beards before but he might change that.

“Are you alright? Can I help you with something?”

Ok so you didn’t cancel your membership. In fact you had signed up for personal training sessions. You didn’t plan on it but you and Ari got to talking; he was so kind and patient when you told him about your concerns. How you weren’t sure how to use the machines and didn’t know which workouts to do. You couldn’t believe you were being so bold and honest with him, but you’re glad you were.

After you confessed everything to him he offered you 3 complimentary personal training sessions with him. Since you didn’t like the crowds he offered to meet you later in the evening after the post work rush. On your first session with him Ari took you through every machine in the gym and taught you how to use them. He’s been nothing but kind, encouraging and supportive ever since you met.

“Great work!” Ari said as you finished your last rep.

You’ve been working with Ari for about 2 months now, doing 1 private session a week and coming another 3 times on your own. Working out was officially a part of your regular routine, and you were in the best shape of your life! You could feel yourself getting stronger and your confidence was obviously growing.

Private sessions or not, Ari always seemed to find you. You had a sneaking suspicion he was going out of his way to talk to you. In fact this session tonight was an extra. Usually you meet with him on Mondays but he said he had a cancellation and offered you a Friday slot as well.

“You did amazing today!” Ari said before wrapping you up in one of his big bear hugs and spinning you around.

“Me? I couldn’t have done any of this without your help”

“No, no way I just guided you a bit here and there you’re the one who put in all the hard work.”

Ari was always saying things like that, how strong you are, how dedicated, how beautiful. If it was anyone else you’d think they were sucking up so you would keep coming back, but Ari? He was being nothing but sincere.

He’s still holding onto you, your arms are wrapped around each other, and he's looking down at you with his beautiful blue eyes, and he’s so tall you have to tilt back your head so you can meet his intense gaze. The moment is heavy and you start to think that maybe…

There's a loud bang in the gym, probably someone dropping the squat rack on the ground too hard. But the sound breaks the tension. Ari clears his throat and takes a rather large step away from you. “

Seriously great work today, why don’t you head home, I can clean up here.” He says as he starts to wipe down the equipment you were using.

“Ohh um sure, I’ll head out then. I’ll see you next week?”

“Yeah definitely!”

As soon as you turn off and head to the locker room Ari is kicking himself. Christ, there goes yet another opportunity to ask you out and he botched it..again! The guys keep bothering him about it, apparently the entire gym staff knows he’s harboring the world's biggest crush on you. And all the extra pressure from his staff is not helping his nerves.

Ari has never in his life had a hard time talking to women but something about you, he gets so tongue tied and nervous it’s not like him at all. A minute ago when the two of you were standing there wrapped in each other's arms, God it felt so good to hold you like that it took all his strength not to lean down and kiss you. But then he chickened out of course. Ughh he’s got to think of a plan. Maybe it would be easier if he just texted you…? No he’d rather do it in person, like a gentleman, he just didn’t know what he was going to say.

Ari’s at the front desk with Sam, one of the other trainers. The gym is usually slow on Friday nights so the two of them just have to wait for the few stragglers that are here to finish their workouts and then they’ll head home.

He thought you might have left already but you stroll up to the desk looking absolutely lovely in a different outfit than when you came in.

“Hi” You say smiling at him “Hey Sam” You acknowledge the man next to him.

Sam gives a quick “Hey” back before giving Ari a gentle nudge and heading to the other side of the desk so he can look busy with paperwork while still eavesdropping.

“Hi, did you need something before you go?”

“No, actually I wanted to ask you something,” You take a deep breath before verbalizing the question that’s been burning on your tongue for weeks, “Would you like to go out with me sometime?”

For a split second Ari is convinced he heard you wrong. For a moment he’s convinced this is one of his many fantasies about you, but he quickly recovers and gives the only logical answer.

“Yes, yes I would love to go out with you.” His smile is so wide it almost hurts, and you have an equally wide grin across your face. You try to reign it in just a little bit. Right now you have the overwhelming urge to squeal and jump around but you’re pretty sure that might make Ari change his mind.

Calming your inner turmoil you look to him and say “Great well, I don’t know if you’re free this weekend at all but...”

“Actually he’s free right now” Sam interrupts.

“You sure man?”

“Yeah, I’m sure, we close in an hour anyway, you two go out and have a good time” Sam waves the two of you off.”

“OK it looks like I’m free now” Ari says with a chuckle. “If that works for you?”

“Yes, that definitely works!”

“Ok, there's a really good Mexican place right up the street. We could walk there if you want?”

“Mexican sounds perfect.”

“Ok then, after you.” He says as he gestures for you to lead the way. You head towards the door figuring he’ll catch up. Ari steps around to the front of the desk wrapping his knuckles on it before whispering a quick “thank you” to Sam. With his long legs he catches up to you quickly and by the time you make it out the front door the two of you are holding hands as you leisurely stroll to your destination.

Thanks so much for reading!! Don't forget to leave a comment and let me know what you think.

Have an awesome day! <3

series masterlist

time-for-a-lullaby masterlist

“Sei la donna più bella che abbia mai visto.” (You are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen.)

You rolled your eyes as Chris’s arms slid around your waist, pulling you back against his chest. His lips found the crook of your neck, placing a gentle kiss on your skin. Even after all of these years, his affection and love for you had never faltered. Every chance he got, his hands or lips were on you. Or his mouth was inches away from your ear, whispering his love for you and your family as if you could ever forget just what you meant to him.

You stopped icing the cake on the counter, turning into his embrace and wrapping your arms around his neck. The same cologne he’d been wearing since your wedding night wafted through the air, making you smile. Sandalwood and citrus. Your favorite. “Lo dici a tutte le tue mogli,” (You say that to all of your wives.) You teased.

“Ah, yes. But I mean it when I say it to you,” He winked, moving out of your grasp when you reached down to pinch his side.

“You’re so full of shit,” you laughed, turning back to the cake on the counter. The icing was a beautiful pale pink, matching the rest of the party decor around the villa. You’d offered to make a trip to the bakery down the road, but Rina insisted on having you make it, stating that it wasn’t a birthday unless the cake was made by you.

You loved that your girls appreciated your baking as much as you loved doing it. Over the years, it became something that the family did together for nearly every ‘milestone’. Every birthday, every anniversary, every aced test, the whole family gathered in the kitchen, following the recipe in one of your handwritten recipe books while you laughed and celebrated the occasion.

Now that the girls were out on their own, it was something you missed.

Though you wouldn’t admit it to either of them, you were dreading the possibility that they wouldn’t ask for things like this anymore, that time hadn’t come. So you were enjoying it while you could.

Chris swiped his finger against the inside of the icing bowl, bringing it to his mouth for a taste test. He groaned, “Mio dio, cara. I don’t know how you do it.” (My god, dear/darling)

You grinned, swatting his hand as he went back for a second taste. “Lots of time and patience. Something you know little about.”

He let out a laugh, easing the icing spatula from your hand and setting it on the counter. Chris snagged your hand, spinning you into his arms. “I love you, cara.”

You smiled sweetly, lifting your thumb to swipe away the tiny bit of pink icing on the corner of his mouth. “I love you, too. But I have to finish this cake before Rina gets here.”

“The cake can wait,” he insisted, bringing his hands up to cup your cheeks. His thumb ghosted over your cheekbone, blues eyes shimmering with nothing but the purest form of love. Your mind flashed back to the conversation you’d had with your old housekeeper, Gina. How at one point in time, the blue in Chris’s eyes resembled something cold and icy. He was closed off to the world and to those closest to him.

But now, whenever his gaze found yours, you saw nothing but love. The cold and ice melted into an endless sea of blue, free and warm, swimming with an unbridled love for his family and those he could trust.

When Gina told you that it was because of you, it didn’t feel right taking credit for such a change. But now, you knew. Chris’s world was nothing but death and betrayal.

He needed someone to come along and prove to him that there was so much more to life than the cruel one he’d been living. And that’s exactly what you did. Proving to yourself just as much as him that your life together was something meaningful and vastly different from the one that you lived before marriage.

“Did I ever tell you what I whispered to you that night on the ferris wheel?”

Your brows furrowed, trying to recall what he had said. Your Italian has obviously improved greatly since then, but it was so long ago and the words were so foreign to you at the time, you weren’t sure how to hold onto them until you could properly translate them. “No, I don’t think you did.”

The corner of his mouth turned up into a small smile, his hands still framing your face with a delicate touch. “Da questo bacio in poi, fino al mio ultimo respiro, sarò tuo.” (From this kiss on, until my last breath, I will be yours)

You took a shaky breath, your eyes immediately filling with tears.

“I knew that night I was falling in love with you.”

“Chris–” you choked out, your bottom lip quivering as you fought to form something coherent enough to say out loud.

“Thank you for giving me a life of love and happiness.”

Before your mind could catch up with all of the emotions currently swirling around inside of it, Chris’s lips were pressed against yours. You melted into him, circling your arms around his middle to keep him as close as possible.

He could thank you all he wanted, but he’d done just as much as you to fill your life with an abundance of love and laughter.

Chris’s lips moved against yours, soft and slow like he was committing this moment to memory.

You were so lost in the man you loved, neither of you heard the front door open.

“Ick!”

You rolled your eyes, pulling away from Chris as your daughter pretended to gag.

“You guys are disgusting.”

Turning to look at Rina, you smiled at the love in her eyes. She might say that you and Chris were gross, but she loved seeing her parents still so infatuated with each other.

She made her way into the kitchen, dropping a few grocery bags onto the counter before walking over to where you stood to kiss your cheek. “Hi, mamma.” At 24, Carina and Mariella had both taken after their father when it came to height. Both of them towered over you, standing only a couple of inches shorter than Chris. It was infuriating.

Though, it proved useful for Ella when she decided to take up modeling.

Chris scoffed, his hands slapping against his sides. “Che cosa sono?” (What am I?) He mumbled under his breath.

Carina laughed, turning to Chris and stretching up to kiss his cheek. “Hello, papa.”

He waved her off with a grin, but not before kissing her temple. “Dov'è mia nipotina?” (Where’s my granddaughter?)

A tiny voice spoke up from the foyer, following the sound of her tiny dress shoes as she ran through the villa to get to the kitchen. “Sono qui, nonno!” (I’m here, grandpa!)

Chris grinned at the sound of your granddaughter’s voice, the corners of his eyes crinkling. He had aged like fine wine, his brunette hair almost completely faded to grey at this point and you’d loved every single second of watching him transform into a silver fox. He was as handsome as ever, even more so with his sights on the little girl that truly owned his heart.

Carina’s husband, Leo, escorted Luna into the kitchen, her little legs working overtime to get to Chris. Those two were the best of friends, basically inseparable when they were together.

He offered a quick hug to your son-in-law before bending over to scoop Luna into his arms. “Ciao angioletto mio.” (Hello, my angel.)

“Ciao, nonno!” (Hello, grandpa.)

Your heart swelled as Chris pinched her cheek. “Her Italian is so good!”

Rina nodded, smiling softly at her soon-to-be three-year-old daughter wrapped in Chris’s arms. “I know, she’s been doing so well.”

Just like you and Chris had raised the twins, Leo and Rina were raising their children to speak both Italian and English and Luna was doing so well to the point of only really wanting to speak Italian.

“The cake looks so good, mamma. Thank you for doing it.” She nodded at the abandoned two-tiered cake on the counter.

You clasped your hands together. “Oh, right. Just a few final touches and then I’ll put it in the fridge until we’re ready.”

“You do that, I’m gonna go pee. Again,” She rolled her eyes, her hands going to her belly. Rina was around seventeen weeks pregnant and just starting to show. “This child has made it his personal mission to bounce on my bladder every twenty minutes.”

You smiled, remembering all too well what it felt like to have two of them taking turns bouncing around inside of you. Sometimes memories like that felt so distant and foggy around the edges, other times they were crystal clear like a high-definition movie playing through your mind. It was hard to accept the fact that life had really flown by, but there wasn’t a single thing you’d do differently.

All of the highs and lows you went through brought you right here, to this beautiful afternoon in Venice where you would soon celebrate your grandaughter’s third birthday surrounded by the people you loved most in this world.

In just a few hours, your villa would be filled with friends and family. Laughter and loud voices would carry through the halls, there would be music and exaggerated stories of the men and everything they accomplished “in their prime”.

Before Chris decided to leave Boston and the mafia behind him, you cowered away from chaos because it usually meant blood, guns, or some law enforcement agency. Now, it meant laughing children spilling food and drink onto the floor and people trying to talk over the noise. It meant that your family would be in one place for the first time since Chris’s birthday in June.

You craved the chaos these days instead of the way your footsteps echoed through an empty house.

Blinking back the happy tears, you looked up from the cake and waited for someone to emerge from the foyer after the door opened and closed.

After a few seconds, Ella and her girlfriend, Simone, walked in hand-in-hand, their smiles so wide it hurt your cheeks to even look at them. You grinned, abandoning the pink cake once again to make your way over, wrapping your arms around both of their shoulders.

“Oh, how I’ve missed you two.”

They returned your embrace, Ella squeezing extra tight. You were always careful to only speak English with Simone around, not wanting her to feel left out. Ella was teaching her some Italian phrases, but you knew firsthand that it could be a tricky language to pick up.

“I missed you, mamma.”

Just hearing those words coming from your daughters always warmed your chest. No matter how old they got, they always missed their mamma.

“Did I hear the door?” Chris walked back into the room with Luna still perched on his hip. You looked over as a smile spread across his face. “Hi, you two.” He made his way over to wrap them in a hug as you returned to your place by the cake in the kitchen, determined to finish before another interruption pulled you away.

Ella, like you knew she would, immediately stole Luna from Chris and wrapped her in a bear hug. “Luna-Bug! You’re so big, bambina!” (baby.)

It was so rare to have everyone in the same house at once.

Rina and Leo had moved out of Venice to a smaller providence to be closer to his job, and Ella and Simone bounced back and forth between France, the States, and your guesthouse. Lydia and Sebastian still lived in Boston, along with their daughters. All of Chris’s siblings still lived here in Venice, but all had their own families to tend to.

But soon, everyone would be here under one roof and you couldn’t wait.

Ella placed Luna back into Chris’s arms, reaching down to thread her fingers with Simone’s again. Your eyes narrowed on the small flash of gold on Simone’s tan finger. Looking back up at them, they read the questions in your eyes with amused looks.

The two of them had been together for almost three years now, you’d been waiting for the engagement announcement ever since you’d given Ella your own ring to propose with earlier in the year. After a few seconds of silence, you raised your eyebrows at your daughter and her girlfriend.

Simone giggled and released Ella’s hand, raising her left one to show off the ring that once sat on your finger. It was gorgeous on her. There was no holding back the tears this time.

They streamed down your face as you pulled them into a hug, unable to stop the squeal that burst from your lips. Chris chuckled, the arm that wasn’t holding Luna wrapped around the three of you. “Congratulations, you guys,” he said, squeezing once before letting go as Rina entered the room with Leo.

“What’s happ-” She paused, her eyes widening. “You did it?!” She screamed, doing a little happy dance before walking over and joining in the group hug.

“I’m sorry to announce it now, I know it’s Luna’s birthday. I just didn’t know when we’d all be together again,” Ella apologized, mumbling into Rina’s shoulder as you all hugged.

Rina shushed her. “Don’t you dare apologize! She has no idea what’s going on and you’re getting married!” She emphasized the last three words with a squeal similar to yours.

Your daughters laughed and after a moment, a silence fell over the room, only interrupted by sniffling noses and Luna whispering to Chris and asking him what was happening.

“I’m so happy for you all,” You whispered, the emotion building in your throat making it impossible to talk any louder.

You pulled away, swiping at the tears on your cheeks before framing Rina’s face. “You, the best mamma I have met. Luna and little Matteo are so lucky to have you.”

She smiled, her own eyes reflecting the emotion in yours. “Thank you, mamma.”

“And you two.” You turned, placing your left hand on Ella’s cheek and your right hand on Simone’s. “I can’t tell you how happy I am for you. I have never seen two people more suited for each other. You will live a life of so much love and happiness. I can’t wait to witness it.”

You backed away, attempting to blink away the tears as your family stood before you. It was so hard to think about the fact that one shitty man that dared to call himself your father and a deal to get you out of his house led to something so amazing.

If Sebastian hadn’t asked Chris to save you, you never would’ve fallen in love. You never would’ve experienced this kind of happiness. You wouldn’t have Carina or Mariella. You wouldn’t have Leo, Luna, or Simone. Or little Matteo on the way. You wouldn’t have this home.

One measly piece of paper that you used to daydream about ripping to shreds somehow re-arranged your life into something so beautiful and meaningful.

You exchanged a loving look with Chris, one that told you he had every intention of upholding his promise.

Until his last breath, he was yours and you were his.

Sempre e per sempre. (Forever and always.)

SERIES MASTERLIST

“Helloo!!! Where are you?” Susan's loud and excited voice on the other side of your phone aggressively took you out of your slumber.

“I’m in bed. Sue, what’s going on?” You mumbled while trying to open your eyes.

“What do you mean what’s going on? We agreed on having breakfast together!”

“Oh shit, are you already here?”

“Yes, I’m outside your door you dummy, open up!”

“Oh god, I forgot! Hang on, let me get it.” You replied before hanging up and trying to quickly get up off the bed, only failing miserably when dizziness hit you and you had to sit back on it.

Truth was, you were not feeling at your best recently. It’s been more than a week of dizziness, lack of appetite and nervousness and you were not in the mood of seeing someone.

You’d rather stay in bed all day, but your best friend was in town after months away and you missed her like crazy.

Another loud series of knocks convinced you to get up from the bed and make your way to the living room.

Right after you opened the door you were attacked by Susan who immediately hugged you.

“I missed you so much! This is the last time I’m leaving for so long!” She told you while she held you tight.

“Where’s Richard?” You asked the second she let you go.

“He’s back at his lab, we both needed a breather after working so closely.” She smiled at you before her expression morphed to a worried frown.

“Y/N? Are you ok? You don’t look well.” Susan asked you while you walked backwards, trying to control the sudden wave of nausea that was hitting you.

“Y-yeah. Just haven’t felt great recently. It’s probably just the flu.” You nervously tried to smile but closed your eyes when the dizziness started to hit you again.

“You’re too pale Y/N, you need to lay down.” She told you but before she could come closer to you again you blocked her again and turned on your feet, running as fast as you could towards the bathroom just in time before feeling sick.

“I’m so sorry, I don’t feel well enough to go out.” You said while sitting on your bathroom floor while Susan was kneeling in front of you, cleaning the sweat on your face with a damp cloth.

“That’s what you're worried about now?” She mocked you.

After helping you get up and putting you back in bed, Susan walked to your kitchen where she grabbed some water and made you drink it.

“How long have you been feeling like this?” She asked you when she saw you were relaxing.

“About a week, maybe a bit more.” You replied.

“Did you go to see a doctor?”

“No.”

“Y/N!”

“I was going to, I promise, I just thought it was some stress and it would go away.” You explained.

“I can’t believe you, I swear.”

“I’m sorry.”

“Alright, gonna call your doctor now. You get some rest.”

Susan came back few minutes later, a frown on her face.

“So? What did the doctor say?” You asked.

“Uhm, she said you should get some tests done and well, funny, she also suggested you should take a pregnancy test. Which I laughed about it since I know you broke up with Pete months ago and you always get your shot.”

“Right…”A shiver ran through your spine and you suddenly started to connect the dots.

“Can you imagine? You? Accidentally pregnant? The most responsible and organized woman in the world? Hilarious.” Susan laughed at her own joke while you grabbed your phone from the bedside table and felt the beginning of a panic attack incoming.

You couldn’t be pregnant right?

You clearly remember getting your birth control shot while you were with Pete.

“Shit.” You mumbled to yourself while you were scrolling through your calendar and realised you missed the appointment for your shot two months ago. Right after you and Pete broke up.

But you and him stopped having sex way long before that moment and you didn’t have anyone else, besides…

“Oh no, this can’t be. No, no, no.” You threw the phone on the bed and covered your face with your shaking hands.

“Y/N? Hey, relax. Take deep breaths. Look at me.” Susan held your hands, trying to ground you.

“Is there a chance you could be pregnant?” She asked you.

“Maybe.” You replied.

“Are you sure?”

“I missed the last appointment for my shot.” You explained.

“Did you and Pete get back together?”

“No.”

“Is there someone else? I didn’t know you were dating again.” Susan tried to investigate.

“I’m not dating anyone…but there has been someone.” You told her, trying to do your best to not give anything away.

You can’t tell her the truth, not now at least.

“Mmmh. Someone I know?”

“No! No. Just a guy I met about a month ago.” You lied.

“Did you use protection?” Susan asked again.

“No.”

“It happened just once?”

“Twice.” You mumbled, realizing how that sounded. You’d have never behaved that recklessly with someone you just met.

You just let your defenses down because you were with…ugh, you couldn’t even think about him right now.

“Wow. Oh my god.” Susan sighed.

“I know, you’re disappointed in me.”

“I’m not. I’m just surprised. Because this is not you, so something must have happened and I hate I wasn’t here to help you.” Susan explained.

“What am I gonna do now?”

“Well, now you rest. First, I’m gonna call your doctor back and schedule some blood tests for you. Then I’m gonna walk to the store around the corner and get you a pregnancy test.” She replied before hugging you tight and walking out of your bedroom while you let yourself fall back on your pillows.

Did you really screw it up?

With your best friend’s brother nevertheless?

Grabbing again your phone you scrolled through your messages, reading back Johnny and yours last conversation, before he left for work.

That was a month ago.

A month of radio silence from him.

A month of him being away.

A month of you lurking through his and his colleagues' social media trying to catch a glimpse of him.

A month of regretting sleeping with a guy who clearly didn’t feel anything for you and didn’t want to be sentimentally attached to you.

Few miles away from you and Susan, Johnny found himself, once again, staring into the distance while thinking about you.

Sitting in the cafeteria of the new gym, while completely ignoring what his new colleague Sam was telling him, he checked his phone for the millionth time since he left.

It’s become a habit for him.

Every few minutes he checks his phone, hoping to see a missed call or a text from you.

But still, nothing.

He’s not mad at you.

He’s more mad at himself for the way he handled things.

He allowed himself to get lost in you and, even if it was something that he craved, he knew it was a mistake.

You were too important for him and he never should have been so selfish.

It didn’t matter how much he wanted you, you deserved so much better.

And now, because of his stupidity, he lost you.

“You know, you could just call her.” Sam’s voice took Johnny out of his reverie.

“What?”

“I said that you could call her, instead of checking your phone every 5 minutes.”

“That obvious, uh?” Johnny slowly shaked his head, putting the phone back in his jacket’s pocket.

“Kinda.” Sam replied, smirking at him.

“I can’t call her.”

“Why?”

“I fucked up.”

“That bad?”

“She’s my best friend…she…I…it got complicated between us before I left to come here and now things are weird. If you know what I mean.” Johnny tried to explain without giving too much away.

He didn’t tell anyone what happened between you and him.

Not even to Colin or Curtis.

He was scared of being disrespectful and most of all, he was scared of other people shoving the truth in his face.

But Sam was a good guy and he felt safe confiding in him.

“I think I do.” Sam replied.

“I just… I wish things could go back the way they were, so at least I could check on her and see if she’s alright anytime I wanted. I mean, what if she needs something and she doesn’t want to call me so she calls that asshole of her ex? That dude treated her like shit but what if…ugh, I fucked up.” Johnny covered his face with his hands and exhaled, exhausted.

“Wow.”

“What?” He asked, looking up at Sam.

“You know that, before sending you here, your boss called me and told me to keep you in check because you were a bit of a troublemaker?” Sam explained.

Those remarks made Johnny chuckle.

“And then you get here looking like a kicked puppy. Let me be clear, you're great at your job and I understand why Andy trusts you so much, but let’s just say I’m surprised by your behaviour.”

“What are you trying to say?”

“What I’m trying to say is that I doubt that you’d be able to suppress your feelings for this girl that easily.” Sam told him.

“Well, fuck, this is the worst pep talk ever.” Johnny chuckled again.

“I just think that, maybe you should try being honest with her. We’re almost done here and you’ll be able to go home in a few weeks. I’m sure everything will work out.” Sam said, while getting up and patting Johnny’s shoulders, before walking to his office.

Johnny watched Sam walk away before grabbing his phone again, his finger dangerously hovering over your contact, before traveling to his sister’s number.

“Hey!” Susan quickly replied and Johnny noticed how she sounded like she was in a hurry.

“Is this a bad time? Are you running?” Johnny asked.

“‘No! Of course not! What’s up?”

“You’re such a bad liar.” He smiled at his sister’s annoyed tone.

“Shut up!”

“How are things at home?” He decided to test the water before calling you.

“Good! Fine! Bit busy with…stuff, you know.” She nervously chuckled and Johnny could hear the fast clicking of her heels.

“I don’t, but…whatever…how’s Reed?”

“Since when do you care about Richard?”

“Jeez Sue, I was trying to be polite! I haven’t seen you all in months!”

“Alright, alright, I’m sorry! He’s fine, working in his adored lab now that we’re back home.”

“Good…Uhm, how’s Genie? Have you seen her?”

“Y-yeah…we’re hanging out. She’s…Uhm…she’s doing great! Haven’t you heard from her recently?”

“Uhm, not since I left. I’ve been busy here…crazy hours you know.”

“Yeah…I can imagine.”

“I’m actually coming back in a few weeks.”

“Really? Oh that’s lovely!”

“Yeah, so I guess I’ll call you when I’m back so maybe we can meet up?”

“Absolutely, I missed my little brother.”

“Ugh gross.”

“Love you too! Bye!”

“Bye Sue.”

Johnny stared at his phone again.

Should he text you just to see how you were doing?

But what could he tell you now? After more than a month of radio silence?

Every sentence sounds stupid in his head and he’s still too confused to make a decision.

For now he’ll keep things how they are.

Time will mend anything, he’ll find a way to repress his feelings once again and get over you.

What happened between you and him was a one (two actually) time thing with no consequences.

You’ll go back to being friends and everything will be back to normal.

Johnny had no doubts about it.

Susan found you still in your bed.

She didn’t talk much, she knew that words were not what you needed now.

You needed a friend and she was here for it.

As she always has been throughout your life.

You watched as she opened the pregnancy test box and read the instructions, before taking your hand and gently walking with you to the bathroom.

The two of you sat on your bed staring at the clock, not saying a word.

“You think I might be…” you asked her.

“I think it’s a possibility.” Susan replied.

“What the hell am I gonna do?”

“Whatever your heart will tell you to do. And I’m gonna be here helping you, whatever your decision will be. And after that you’ll tell me the name of the guy so I can go kick his ass.” She added.

“That’s not gonna happen.” You nervously chuckled.

“Oh, I can be very convincing. And that dude is gonna get his ass whipped.”

You tried to smile but froze when Susan's phone alarm rang and you knew it was time.

“Can you please look at it? I can’t.” You asked Susan, who squeezed your hand and walked inside the bathroom, walking out a few seconds later holding the test.

“So?”

“It’s positive.”

Susan’s voice faded in the distance while you felt as if the ground was swallowing you.

A/N: SURPRISE! Cat’s out of the bag. This was what I was planning all along for these two, some of you got it right with your theories, well done! What do you think it will happen now? 🫣
