Rating: Explicit
Word Count: 3.8k
Summary: A few months into working back at the mansion and Logan still can't keep his hands off you. A/N: This is vaguely tied to my other Logan fic "No One KnowsâŚ" but not at all required reading. All you need to really know is reader is a returning X-Man that can control Earth/ rocks and is codenamed Dozer (Short for Bulldozer) Warnings: S M U T, medium plot??? but mostly just porn, established relationship, under desk blowjobs, office sex, light dom/ sub, a single spank possessive Logan (Someone needs to put me down)
AO3 if you prefer to read there
_______
The morning light pours in through the windows of your bedroom. Logan holds you close against him in bed while you, less than enthusiastically, try to squirm out of his grasp.
A few months back into your old life at X-mansion and you can confidently say it was the best decision youâd ever made in a long, long time. All the kids returned to a brand new environmental science teacher and a newly reconstructed mansion that somehow looked almost exactly the sameâ give or take a few changes to the gardens.
Youâd missed this, you missed being part of the X team, whether it was as an X-Man or just a teacher. For the first time in a long time, you felt like you were making a real tangible difference in people's lives.Â
Yes, you desperately wanted to return to your roots and start overâ but he was also a nice perk to all the chaos.Â
Your relationship with Logan was just as new as your employment in Xavierâs School for Gifted Youngsters. He reeled you in like a fish on a hook. Whatever the two of you had, it was nice. You think it had been a long time since he had something like this too. Someone to care for. Someone to please.Â
Neither of you could keep your hands off each other.Â
It was too early for âI love youâsâ or to declare something like moving in together, but he already spent most nights in your room as it was. If he didnât spend the night heâd find you in the early morning just to hear you moan his name. That boy was determined never to let you sleepâ not that youâre really complaining.
Youâd never had a lover like Logan. Someone so⌠starved. He craved your touch, rambled on about your scent, and held you on the edge for what felt like hours. It was all new and some parts of it, admittedly, a little weird, but fuck was it exciting.Â
Youâd started a new life for yourself, more or less. Started over, more accurately. And he was there to soften all the blows. You hope you did the same for him.Â
You canât believe you thought he ever had ulterior motives about you when you came back. Once you found out you both had more similar pasts than youâd realized, you were sure the only thing he'd want was information from you. How glad you were to be wrong.Â
Victims of the same cruelty but you were both different. You still had your memories. Your identity. He didn't.Â
You vowed to help find out who he was, and that seemed to mean more to him than anythingâ but it was a slow process. Old information and long abandoned facilities. Still, you had each other through all of this and that helped the pain, just a little. Facing your demons together.Â
Right now, however, Logan was your only tangible demon. He still had you trapped in bed and late for class.Â
âJust a quickie,â he purrs, nibbling at your ear. Â
âI have a class to teach in 20 minutes. You should have gotten here earlier,â You muster up any strength you have against him, âAnd itâs never quick with you.â
âOr you just donât want it to be quick,â His mouth finds your bare shoulder, already marked with week's worth of love bites from him. You canât deny the trill of excitement it sends through you.
This fucking man.Â
You want to. Lord in heaven, you really, really want to. Sometimes this being a responsible mentor thing got in the way.
âLoganâŚâ You push lightly against his chest. Itâs not much of a protest, really. None of your weak-willed squirming was.
âOkay⌠okay,â His grip around your waist finally loosens and you reluctantly get out of bed. He gives your ass a playful spank as you do.Â
âYouâre insatiable, you know that?â You scold him with a smile as you dig through your dresser for anything that was clean.Â
âGot a good reason to be,â He grins, resting his arms behind his head and stretching out over the bed. You canât help the blush that creeps into your cheeks. Logan never missed an opportunity to compliment you.Â
You, a little reluctantly, pull on a pair of jeans and one of his white shirts. Slowly but surely all your laundry was getting intermingled to the point of no return. That and you know he always liked when you wore something of his. You donât think any of your own tee-shirts were clean anyway.
Yeah, itâs probably time to do laundry.Â
You top it off with a loose black cardigan to seem somewhat teacherly. You gather your folders with todayâs syllabus. You had three classes today. Logan usually had twoâ if you could you really call PE and survival basics a class. The kids usually just roped him and Kurt into playing flag football with them. It was adorable in its own Logany way.
âIâll see you out there, Professor Logan,â you give him a peck on the forehead before shimming on your shoes.Â
âGod, donât ever call me that again.â He chuckles, covering his face with his forearm.
âWould you prefer daddy?â
His hand immediately drops, âDonât tempt me, darlinâ.â
Youâre at the door now, giving yourself one last moment to admire the perfect man sprawled out in your bed.
âDonât sleep in too late,â you open the door.Â
âSee you out there, toots.â
______
There are only a few more warm days left in fall and you refuse to let them go to waste. You always liked holding classes outside anyway. This was Environmental Science after all. As an earthmover, it always felt natural. Feeling the actual ground under your feet made everything easier to teach in a way.Â
Youâre teaching the different types of erosion this week. The class is gathered on the grass on the edge of the pond as you hover different rocks around them. Examples of river-smoothed stones, bed clay, and a few from the Grand Canyon youâd brought in from your personal collection.Â
Youâd never thought of yourself as the best teacher but the kids seemed to at least enjoy the theatricality. You knew dirt. You knew the earth, and that seemed to be enough.
You hear the PE class run out onto the other side of the lawn, Logan dutifully following behind them. You donât even need to look to feel his eyes on you. You're not sure if you're irritated by the distraction or think itâs a little cute he wants to be near you.
Well, if heâs going to distract you and your class, you might as well distract him. The kids had started a game of frisbee golf, something his full attention didnât need to be on anyway. Logan always joked he was just a glorified babysitter. You take off your cardigan when you feel a small gust of wind. His head immediately snaps your direction when you do.Â
Heâd told you before he liked the mix of your scents. The more animalistic part of him liked it anyway. He always seemed ashamed of it, despite your insistence you didnât care. You could never truly understand, sure, but that didnât change your feelings for him. Besides, you didnât mind feeding the animal every once in a while.Â
Youâd reached the end of your class period and quickly dismissed your students, reminding them of the homework as they scurried back into the mansion. You remain outside, cleaning up the small mess your lesson had made.Â
You still feel Loganâs eyes on you. You canât help the excitement his gaze stirs in you. Logan did something to you no other man had ever doneâ he made you feel desirable in ways youâd never experienced.Â
It was an incredible turn-on, to say the least.
You feel your panties slowly start to wetten. You see a shift in his posture in the distance. You smile, bending over to pick up the loose papers youâd left on a nearby bench. You pause there far longer than you needed toâ just a small tease but you know itâs something thatâll drive you crazy. He always said he liked you in these jeans the most.
You feel his eyes burning into your back the entire walk to the mansion. You canât help but smile.
______
You're leaning against the front of your desk, looking over tomorrow's lesson, when you hear his signature booming steps hurrying down the hallway. Itâd been an hour since your last class ended. He enters the office, closing the door behind him immediately.Â
âProfessor Logan,â You greet him teasingly, leaning back against the desk.Â
He says nothing as he stalks towards you with heavy steps, crashing his mouth into yours. You pull him in as he inserts his body between your legs. His mouth is hungry against yoursâ desperate even. His lips trail down to your jaw.
âYou think youâre cute, huh? Prancing around in my clothes, showing off your ass, gettinâââ
âIâm very cute,â you giggle as he nips at you.
He growls, pulling you up to lead you back to the desk chair. He liked it when you sat on his lap. It was both of your lunch breaks. Youâd always spend them together, though usually not in your shared office.
Charles required everyone to have office hours, even Logan. He fought it every step of the way until he finally relented to just sharing yours. He was almost never here. He didnât have a reason to beâ well unless you were there. His desk sits across from yours just as bare as the day it was put in. Yours, on the other hand, was quickly cluttering as the school year went on.
âStill worked up from this morning,â Logan admits as he nips at your lip, âNeed you, sweet thing.â
Absolutely insatiable.
âPoor boy,â You tease, your hands slowly trailing down to his obnoxious belt buckle. âIâll take care of you.â
You always liked to tease him more than youâd care to admit. Heâd get so worked up over the smallest things. You were always happy to indulge him⌠every fucking time.Â
You sink down to your knees, pulling his jeans with you. His cock bulges out against his boxers, already hard and waiting. You palm at him, giving him a rough squeeze through the fabric. He hums in approval. God, he always felt so good.
Thereâs almost a sigh of relief when you pull him free. You give him a few rough strokes before your tongue follows, trailing up from his base and swirling around his tip, pre cum already leaking free. His rough hands grip your hair as you lavish his cock with your tongue.Â
You pause at the tip, placing a single feather light kiss before taking him completely into your mouth. He chokes out a strangled moan, doing his best to stay quiet. Luckily, the walls of the mansion were thick.Â
The grip in your hair tightens as you find a rhythm.Â
âT-that's it,â his voice is shaky, dripping with pleasure, âJust like that. Good girl.â
He always praised you. Whether giving or receiving, he always made sure you felt seen.Â
A part of this excited you so much. It was scandalous, having him splayed out like this at your work desk, doing your best to suppress the moans that brew in your throat from the thrill of it all. You loved making him fall apart. This was just as much for him as it was for you. You were both having fun. Both acting like giddy, horny, little teenagers.Â
His grip in your hair shifts, and you feel him tense under you. He canât be close already? Before you have time to ask whatâs going on youâre being shoved underneath your own desk. You want to scream what the absolute fuck?! before you hear the office door being clicked open.
âLogan?â It's Scottâs voice.Â
âWhat?â Logan bites out, leaning over the front of the desk to conceale you completely. Thank god Charles always insisted on these massive solid oak desks.
âIâm justâ Youâre sitting at Dozerâs desk,â Scott stammers out.Â
âHad something I needed,â he quickly lied.Â
Youâre cramped into a wooden box basically, one of the walls being made out of thick muscled legs with a heavy cock still hanging between them. You were playing a game with Logan, might as well make it more interesting.Â
âHave you seen her?â Scott asks, âI neededââ
âNo.â Logan only grits out, âSheâs probably down in theââ
He cuts himself off the moment your hand grasps his cock again. You canât help but smile when you run your tongue back up the velvet length. He canât move his arms because that would expose you. He canât move his legs because thereâs not enough room with you between them. Heâs stuck here while you torture him in the sweetest way possible. You donât miss the way his cock jumps when you take him back into your mouth.Â
âSheâs where Logan?â Scott, blissfully unaware, prompts him.
âI donâtâ I donât fucking know,â You swear you can almost feel him shaking with the effort to keep his voice steady, âWhy donât you go fucking look for her then, huh?â
There isnât as much room to move your head as youâd like, so you let your tongue and hands do most of the work.Â
âWell, can I just get on her computer?â You hear Scott take a step closer. Oh no, âI just need aââ
âPiss off, Summers!â He practically growls it out. âYou need her then go fucking find her.â
You hear Scott scoff as he takes a step back. To be fair, this was completely in character for the two of them. It was doubtful Scott suspected anything. You reach up and give Loganâs balls a gentle fondle while you worship his tip with your tongue as silently as you can.
Finally, you hear Scott retreat to the hallway.Â
âI donât know why sheâs with you, Logan. I really donât.â He spits before slamming the door behind him.Â
Logan doesnât waste a second once the door is closed again, pushing the chair back and grabbing your face roughly. His cock falls from your mouth with a wanton gasp. You must look like a mess but canât bring yourself to care.
He just holds you there for a moment, your mouth just inches away from his cock. His eyes have glossed over with lust. He loved this, you know he fucking loved this because you did too.Â
âYouâre trouble,â he says, pulling you both to standing, âYouâre so much fucking trouble.â
He turns you around and bends you over the desk immediately, a few pencil cups shaking with the force. He yanks down your jeans a little rougher than youâd like but you still kick them off the rest of the way. Your underwear still remained in place. He kicks your legs wider and trails a hand up your back, pressing his palm down between your shoulders. His other hand drips between your legs, a finger rubbing over your clothed pussy.
âFucking soaked through already?â he purrs. âYou get wet sucking my cock, baby?â
âYes.â It practically comes out as a plea. Well, itâs only fair heâs toying with you now. Your legs are almost shaking in anticipation.Â
You squirm as he starts to rub the damp fabric directly over your clit. His hand on your back presses you down harder, pinning you in place. Heâs doing what you did to himâ in his own way. Trapped at his mercy.Â
He pushes your underwear to the side, two fingers running through your slick folds a few times before delving in. You bite your lip to suppress a moan, barely successful in silencing yourself. He curls his fingers, back and forth as he works his hand up and down. Anyone could walk in that door at any moment. Logan would stop if he heard anyone coming againâright?
âYou know what you do to me?â His voice is ragged, almost pained, âFuck, do you have any idea?â
His pace is speeding up and your restraint is slipping, but thereâs nothing you can do to get out of this. And, fuck you donât want him to stop either. Youâre completely his right now.Â
You finally let out a wail when rips his hand out of your cunt and slaps it across your ass. His touch stays there, gripping the stinging skin, sharp pain quickly melting to the pleasure that was racking your whole body. He takes his other hand off your back. You donât move, your stomach stirring in anticipation.
It feels better than it should when his hard, massive cock runs over your soaked pussy. Heâd dialed up all of your nerves to eleven. You involuntarily ach back into him like a fucking bitch in heat.
âOh Christ, why are you with meâŚâ he lines himself up, âThatâs what Summers said, right? He doesnât know why youâre with me?â
âLoganââ You attempt to speak up before the air in your lungs vanishes when he thrusts inside of you in one jarring motion. He stays there a good moment, grinding his hips into your ass, gathering himself. God, he was so fucking deep. He draws out and slams back in again. You hear the desk creaking in protest this time, several items falling off.Â
He leans over you, hot tongue trailing up your spine before nuzzling his face in next to your ear.Â
âI know why,â He starts to roll his hips against yours. His imposing body and magic dick were taking over every sense you had. God, you wish you could scream. âItâs because you know no one else can fuck you like I can. Can take care of you like I can.â
He nips at your ear as he finds a pace, tiny low grunts escaping in rhythm with his hips. This was just as much about dominating you as it was about being as close to you as humanly possible. Mixing your scents and desires together until the line is blurred between the two. Yes, Logan fucked you unlike anyone else had, and your certain better than anyone else ever could, but he also loved you harder than you ever knew possible.Â
Loyal to a fault. Itâs instincts, he always said. You always hated when he compared himself to an animal, but in a lot of ways it's just part of who he was. He seemed past trying to deny it and embrace it in his own way. Let the beast free, so to speak.Â
âTell me,â He growls into your ear, âTell me who makes you feel this good.â
You struggled to form the single-word answer, but it eventually came out, whined and shaky.Â
âY-y-you,â you swear youâre drooling, âO-only you, b-baby. O-onlyââ You trail off, likely losing all brain function to the intoxicating filth of it all.Â
âThatâs right. T-thatâs right,â he chants a few times like heâs fucking praising himself for it, âOnly me. Youâre all mine. Iâm all yours.â
Youâre not sure if itâs a gasp of surprise or pain that escapes you when he lifts you both. He holds you against him, still fucking you while youâre both standing. Youâre forced to stand on your tiptoes, your hands grasping onto the forearm around your chest for any sense of balance. You weighed nothing to him. Heâs still fucking you senseless. Heâs holding you both up and still fucking you senseless.
You swear you go blind when his other hand snakes down to your clit.Â
âShoulda stayed in bed this morning,â His stubble rubs against your cheek, âWouldnât have to fuck you like this if weâ shitâ if we had time this morning.â
âLâLogan, IâIââ You start to warn him but canât manage to get it all out. Nevertheless, youâre sure he knows. He always knows when youâre close. You feel it, the mounting pressure at your core. Sweet, precious relief.Â
âI know, baby. I know.âÂ
It hits you like a train, hard and almost completely by surprise. The hand around your chest immediately comes up to clamp around your mouth. You scream against his palm while he keeps fucking you through your orgasm, practically using you like a goddamn sex toy at this point.Â
He mutters out a string of curses while he attempts to maintain his equilibriumâ and eventually fails. He collapses back into the chair behind him, dragging you with him. He almost slips out. Almost. He holds you close against his chest, hips completely still against your ass as he pulses rope after rope into you.
âGood girl, good girl,â you hear him muttering into your neck like a prayer.Â
Your haggard moans into his hand eventually fade into one long heavy sigh, finally allowing yourself to relax against him. You feel his body unwind as well, his previously firm hand over your mouth coming to stroke your cheek. His lips lull around your neck, placing sloppy kiss after sloppy kiss wherever he could reach. He was always so gentle after sex. Those hands that were so rough just a moment ago gently glide over your skin. You always find comfort in their heft.Â
âDo you think anyone heard us?â you finally ask, leaning your head back against his.Â
âFuck âem if they did,â he nuzzles himself right under your jaw. Closeâ he always had to be so close.Â
âCharles is gonna fire us if he ever finds out,â you bring your hands up to your face, rubbing into your eyes just a little too hard.
âYou canât fire an X-Man.â
âTeachers, Logan, weâre teachers.â Ah good, the mortification was settling in just in time to ruin the moment. Fabulous.Â
âStop it,â you swear you can hear the smile in his voice.Â
âHeâs gonna read our minds and see what absolute animals we are and heâs gonna fire us.â The irony that you're saying this out loud while Logan is still fully inside you in your shared office is not lost on you. You feel his chest bouncing against your back, chuckling lightly at your dismay of your surely oncoming termination. You canât help but laugh along with him, just a little.Â
You eventually untangle your bodies and fish your pants off the floor. Maybe you had time for a shower before your next class. Christ, you need one. Logan wasnât the only mutant with advanced senses in the school and the last thing you need is teenagers starting a rumor mill about two teachers fucking in their office. Still, when you look back at Logan you know youâd do it all over again regardless.
Whatever this was with him, whatever youâd started, you know you canât stop it. The thought should terrify you, but for once youâre not afraid.
You reach out and grab his hand, âWanna grab lunch?â
âThought youâd never ask, darlinâ.â

friends [ceo!h x shy!reader]
synopsis: bambi meets harry's best friends.
word count: 8.8k
contains: ceo!harry x assitant!y/n, deer!reader vibes, fluff, age gap (9 years), drunk harry, shy reader, boyfriend!h
this is part 3 of Bambi, read part 2 here
. . .
Y/N was slowly but surely finding her rhythm at Pleasing. Thanks to Harryâs advice on making the most of each day (advice he apparently wrote a book aboutâthough when Lindsey mentioned it, Harry had quickly shushed her and changed the subject), she had developed a solid morning and evening routine.
Her workdays at Pleasing fell on the busiest days of Harryâs schedule, which meant she was there three times a week. Those mornings began promptly at 7 a.m., with her clothes already laid out from the night before. After waking, sheâd prepare breakfast for herself and her brothers, speaking to Harry on the phone as they went about their respective routines in separate homes. Once breakfast was done, sheâd brush her teeth, do her makeup, and style her hair. By the time the school bus arrived to whisk her brothers away, her car would be rounding the corner to take her into the city.
Despite her hectic schedule, Y/N was managing to juggle her studiesâthough she couldnât ignore that they were beginning to take a backseat. Lately, sheâd found herself questioning whether she even wanted to continue her course. But with life moving at such a whirlwind pace, the thought of making a definitive decision felt overwhelming. For now, it was easier to just focus on the day-to-day.
To her surprise, Y/N was actually enjoying her jobâsomething sheâd never expected. Sheâd never been a fan of âadultingâ; being forced to grow up quickly didnât mean she had to like it. Paying bills, going to work, and worrying about the future had always felt like too much. But having a steady job offered her a rare sense of stabilityâone she appreciated more than she wanted to admit. It kept food on the table, gave her some consistency, and most importantly, brought her closer to Harry.
Keeping their relationship a secret, however, was proving to be a challenge. Surprisingly, Y/N was the more professional of the two, maintaining her composure in the workplace. She kept her hands to herself and avoided lingering glances, even when they were in the same room. Harry, on the other hand, wasnât quite as disciplined. He had a knack for initiating little interactions that straddled the line of proprietyâalways claiming they were âaccidents.â
Like the time he held her hand just a second too long. Or the time he âaccidentallyâ kissed her in the elevator right as the doors were opening. Then there was the incident during a meeting when, as she served tea, he tugged on the hem of her dressâapparently needing a refill.
Y/N couldnât help but adore how infatuated he was, but she was determined to keep things professional. The last thing she wanted was for her coworkers to think she had an unfair advantage because of her relationship. Still, Harryâs innocent looks and playfulness made it hard to stay mad at him for long.
âI need to ask you something,â Harry said from his desk.Â
It was Wednesday evening and everyone had gone home. Harry had needed to catch up on some work so Y/N stayed behind after some convincing with the proposition he would drop her home afterwards. Y/N was sitting on the chair opposite, her notebook open and laptop screen. Her laptop was on its last legs, taking forever to load and lagging every five seconds but she could never afford a new one and having one was better than nothing.Â
âWhatâs wrong?â She looked up, wearing her glasses and face framed by wispy bits of loose hair that had escaped her messy bun.Â
Harryâs face brightened when she looked up at him. âCâmere, Bambi. Too far away.â He pushed himself away from his desk and gestured to his lap.Â
Y/N smiled and walked around the desk to sit in his lap. She straddled herself across his lap and wrapped both her arms around his neck, âYâ smell good,â He murmurs, smelling her gingerbread cookie perfume even though it was Autumn, she was already excited for her favourite day of the year.Â
âWhat did you want to ask?â She pouted.Â
As if remembering he bought her over for a purpose, he continued, âThis weekend, yâknow youâre coming to stay the night?â
How could she forget? It was all she had been thinking about since he asked her. She had even bought brand new pyjamas with the remaining paycheck from her old job because her usual ones were worn and not as pretty. She had never been to a sleepover before let alone one with a man. She wasât sure what to expect but had seen movies where girls would sleepover and theyâd paint each others nails and eat ice cream. She knew that wouldnât be the case with Harry but she had made a list of other things they could do together that heâd enjoy too.Â
âI know,â Y/N nodded, brows furrowed as she waited for him to continue. Part of her couldnât help but worry. Did he not want her to sleep over anymore?
"Some of my friends are having a dinner get together type thing," Harry said, his tone casual but hopeful. "I havenât said Iâll go yet because I knew you were coming over, but I wanted to ask if youâd like to come with me?"
Y/Nâs eyes widened in surprise. "To the dinner party? With you?"
Harry smiled, a teasing glint in his eyes. "Yeah, with me. Who else?"
She blinked, processing his words. "Iâd be meeting your friends?" she asked cautiously. "Are you sure about that?"
"Why wouldnât I be sure?" he replied, his brow lifting slightly.
"I donât know, I just..." she trailed off, suddenly unsure of how to explain the nervous flutter in her chest.
"Ah, there yâgo, Bambi," Harry smirked, leaning in just enough to make her cheeks burn. "Getting all flustered."
"Iâm not flustered!" she protested, though the warmth in her face betrayed her.
Harry chuckled, his gaze warm and steady as it met hers. "It makes me happy, you knowâthinking about introducing you to my friends. They were excited when I mentioned you."
"They were?" Y/N asked, her brows lifting in surprise.
"Mhm," he murmured, a small smile tugging at his lips. "They know itâs rare for me to bring someone Iâm dating into the mix this early on." He leaned in, nuzzling against her neck and pressing a soft kiss to her skin. "So, will you come? We can head back to mine after."
She hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Okay... but I donât know if I have anything to wear."
Harry smirked, a mischievous glint in his eye. "Yâknow I can sort that," he teased.
Y/Nâs cheeks flushed instantly, and she bit back a shy smile as his confidence and charm worked their usual magic.Â
. . .
Y/N glanced down at her suitcase, biting her lip. Did I overpack for one night? Probably. She always did.
Growing up, money had been tight, but once Y/N started earning her own at sixteen, sheâd developed a habit of indulging herself. Not extravagantlyâthere were no designer handbags or flashy purchasesâbut enough to feel like she was treating herself after the grind of a day. Skincare, makeup, clothesâher modest earnings often vanished in the blink of an eye.
Fashion was her weakness. Her clothing rack groaned under the weight of her ever-expanding wardrobe, frequently collapsing as if protesting her relentless shopping habit. Packing for this overnight stay at Harryâs had been no exception. Sheâd started with a backpack, then upgraded to a duffle bag, only to realize that wouldnât fit everything she might need. Now, her suitcase sat by the stairs, practically mocking her indecision.
âWhoa.â Sammyâs voice broke her thoughts as he sauntered into her room, a chocolate bar in hand. âAre you moving in?â
âNo,â Y/N huffed, hands on her hips. âI just want to be prepared.â
Sammy raised an eyebrow. âYou know, he could just stay here instead.â
Y/N stilled. The boyâs first night without her had everyone feeling uneasy, and she knew Sammy wasnât looking forward to it. His gaze was guarded, but she could see the vulnerability underneath.
âItâll be fine,â she reassured, stepping closer. âItâs just one night. If you really hate it, weâllââ
âYouâll what?â he interrupted, his voice breaking slightly. âThereâs going to be a day when you move out. And leave me. With Mom. Or... without her.â
The words hit harder than he intended. Y/N swallowed the lump forming in her throat, reaching out to him. She saw the sadness etched in his eyes, a reflection of her own fears. âWherever I go, you go,â she whispered firmly.
âPromise?â
âI promise.â
Sammy leaned into her, wrapping his arms around her in a tight hug. Y/N held him close, closing her eyes for a moment before pulling away.
The sound of a knock at the front door jolted her. She glanced at the clock, muttering a quick, âThatâs Harry,â as she rushed downstairs. She wanted to intercept him before Archie could get startedâher little brotherâs chatter had a way of turning quick visits into extended stays.
Yanking the door open, she froze. Harry stood there, a beaming smile lighting up his face despite the chill in the air. He wore a puffer jacket and shorts, his casual confidence making her heart skip.
âHi, Harry,â she greeted, cheeks tinged pink, though she wasnât sure if it was from the cold or his presence. Without thinking, she leapt into his arms, her sock-clad feet barely touching the doorstep.
âHi, Bambi,â he chuckled, steadying her as his arms closed around her. âYâready to go?â
âMhm.â She pulled back, slipping on her shoes. âLet me say goodbye to the boys.â
Harryâs gaze shifted behind her, landing on the suitcase by the stairs. A laugh bubbled from him. âAre you planning on moving in?â
Y/N furrowed her brows, following his line of sight. When realization dawned, she flushed. âOh, that. I, uh... didnât know what Iâd need.â
His grin softened as he stepped closer, pressing a kiss to her forehead. âSâalright, Bambi,â he murmured. âMâjust excited to have you over.â
She smiled, her heart swelling as he leaned in for another kiss. Then, without missing a beat, he grabbed her suitcase and carried it effortlessly to the car.
After she had bid goodbye to her brotherâs and promised them some much needed one on one time with them once she came back from Harryâs house, Y/N took a deep breath and mentally prepared herself for the next twenty four hours.Â
. . .
In the car to Harryâs apartment, Y/N sat in the passenger seat with one hand intertwined with Harryâs whilst he drove with his other. The radio played through the car speakers, avoiding complete silence on the journey. The dulcit tones of Marvin Gaye playing throughout.Â
âYâ hands are freezing,â Harry said. Y/N instinctively tried to pull away as though her hand being cold was a bad thing but Harry clung tighter, raising both their hands and kissing her knuckles before blowing his warm breath over her hand. âDo you need me to up the heater?â
Y/N shook her head, âNo itâs okay, my hands get cold when Iâm nervous.â She confessed.Â
Harry frowned, âNervous? Are you okay?â
Y/N cringed, âM a little worried about meeting your friends. What if they donât like me?âÂ
Harry gave her a comforting smile, âBambi, theyâre so excited to meet you. You have nothing to worry about. Theyâve met other girls Iâve dated and trust me when I say youâre a walking angel in comparison to them.âÂ
âH-Have you dated a lot of other girls?â Y/N felt awkward bringing it up but her curiosity was getting the better of her. Harry had only mentioned briefly of the other women he had dated. Of course he had dated other women, he was a successful, handsome millionaire with a fashion company. It would be pointless trying to deny it.Â
Harry thought for a moment like he was trying to think carefully about his response, âIâll be honest, I used to date a lot of women when I first started making money. I wasnât very good when I started getting attention from the press. I drank a lot and spent money on buying out nightclubs and bars for the night.âÂ
Y/N was shocked. She tried to picture her Harry being the version of himself he spoke about. âBut my company was no where near as successful as it is now so even though I was spending a lot, I was losing a lot too. I nearly went bankrupt at one point which really gave me a kick up the ass. My sister, sheâs an accountant back home in England, she came to visit and helped me get my act together.âÂ
âOh wow,â Y/N didnât really know what else to say. She couldnât seem to envision her sweet, soft and wholesome Harry being a party animal and spening nights in bars for days on end.Â
âDid that put you off?â Y/N immediately shook her head.Â
âOf course not, weâve all got things weâre not proud of.â Y/N replied.Â
Harry smiled, âWhat about you? Any psycho ex-boyfriends I need to worry about?â
Y/N laughed, âNo lucky for you, I donât think a single guy has ever taken interest in me.âÂ
âI highly doubt that Bambi but youâre right, I am very lucky.â Harry flashed a cheeky grin, turning the wheel around the corner and stopped outside the tallest building she had ever seen that looked as though it was completely made of glass.Â
Y/Nâs was unable to say anything when her eyes gazed up at the towering stack of apartments. âYou live in this building?â Y/N couldnât take her eyes off, her neck permanently craned to look up. She was pretty sure the hjgihest point of the building resided in the clouds.Â
Harry said nothing, parking his car in the private parking spot. He went to the back to grab her suitcase, Y/N stepping out of the car and walking around to meet him.Â
âCâmon Bambi,â Harry chuckled at her awe-struck expression.Â
They walked hand in hand through the lobby which looked as glamorous as youâd expect. Harry gave a nod to the security at the door as they went past and headed towards the elevator. Y/Nâs eyes widened when his finger pressed the button for the top floor.Â
The doors to the elevator opened and Y/N thought she might actually pass out.Â
She stepped into Harryâs penthouse, her breath catching as her gaze swept over the space. The floor-to-ceiling windows framed the city skyline, all the people and cars down below looked like ants. The open layout was both elegant and inviting, with warm ambient lighting casting a golden glow over the neutral-toned furniture and rich wooden floors.
âWow,â she whispered, taking a hesitant step further inside. The plush cream sofa, the sleek coffee table stacked with books, and the faint scent of vanilla in the air all felt so Harryâeffortlessly stylish and welcoming.
Harry chuckled behind her, setting her suitcase by the door. âYou like it?â
âLike it?â she breathed, turning to face him with wide eyes. âHarry, this is... incredible.â
He smiled, rubbing the back of his neck. âMâglad you think so. Wanted it to feel comfy, yâknow? Somewhere I could actually relax.â
Y/N nodded, her eyes drifting back to the view. âSometimes I forget how rich you are.â
Harry chuckles from behind her, âIâm actually very glad to hear that.â
She walked over to the windows, pressing her hands gently against the glass as she looked out at the city sprawling beneath them. For a moment, it felt like they were floating above it all, separate from the noise and chaos of the world below.
Harry joined her, slipping an arm around her waist and pulling her close. âSâbetter with you here,â he murmured, his voice soft.
Y/Nâs heart thudded in her chest as she leant into him. Harry kissed her shoulder, turning her round to face him. He smiled when her eyes met his, âWe have some time before we need to get ready, do you want to go unpack?â
âOh of course, am I sleeping on the couch?â Harry furrowed his brows before bursting out laughing, water almost fell from his eyes. Y/N frowned, confused at his reaction.Â
âYou donât want to sleep in my room Bambi? With me?â Y/Nâs cheek scorched red but Harry just continued to laugh, âI mean Iâm happy to sleep on the couch and let you sleep in my room if thatâs what would make you comfortable.â
âNo, itâs okay! I was just messing around,â She was all flustered. The idea of sleeping in Harryâs bed with him hadnât crossed her mind like it maybe should have.Â
âAre you sure? Yâ know I wouldnât do anything to make you uncomfortable.â Y/Nâs shoulders sunk at his sincere concern, she stood on her toes and kissed his lips. This time it was his turn to be surprised since it was rare for her to be the first to initiate a kiss between them.Â
âI know,â She smiled, âI want to sleep in your room⌠with you.âÂ
Harry smiled, âGood. Let me give you a tour first.âÂ
Harry led Y/N back toward the kitchen, still holding her hand as they strolled through the open-concept living area. âFirst stop: the kitchen,â he said, motioning grandly as they stepped into the sleek, modern space.
Y/Nâs eyes widened as she took in the marble countertops, state-of-the-art appliances, and a large island that looked like it had been plucked from a home design magazine. A trio of pendant lights hung above, casting a warm glow over the pristine surfaces.
âWow,â she breathed, running her fingers along the smooth countertop. âThis is amazing. Do you even use it?â
Harry grinned, leaning casually against the island. âI use it for takeout. Does that count?â
She laughed, shaking her head. âI donât know how anyone could resist cooking in here.â
âI can resist pretty easily, love,â he said with a smirk. âBut if you ever fancy cooking together, Iâm happy to assist. Iâm great at stirring things and, uh⌠taste-testing.â
âOf course you are, no wonder you own a restaurant.â Y/N teased, giving him a playful nudge.
Harry chuckled, then nodded toward a door off to the side. âAlright, next stop: my office.â
He guided her through the door and into a smaller, cosier room that contrasted with the open, airy feel of the rest of the penthouse. The office was lined with dark wood shelves filled with books, a few framed photos, and scattered trinkets. A large desk sat in front of another set of floor-to-ceiling windows, the view just as stunning as the one in the living room.
âThis is where I get most of my work done,â he said, walking over to the desk and leaning on it. âOr where I try to, anyway. Sometimes I just sit here and stare out at the city.â
Y/N wandered over to the shelves, her fingers lightly brushing the spines of the books. âItâs so⌠you,â she said softly, glancing at the little detailsâa framed photo of him with his family, a guitar pick sitting on a stack of papers, and a candle that smelled faintly of cedar.
He raised an eyebrow. âYou mean messy?â
âNo,â she said, laughing. âI mean itâs thoughtful. Personal.â
Harryâs smile softened, and he reached out to take her hand again. âAlright, enough of the boring office. Time to show you the best room in the house.â
Y/Nâs heart skipped a beat as he led her back down the hallway to his bedroom. When he pushed open the door, her breath hitched.
The bedroom was even more stunning than sheâd imagined. The centerpiece was a massive bed with crisp white linens that looked impossibly soft, surrounded by sleek, minimal furniture. The far wall was made entirely of glass, offering an unobstructed view of the glittering city below. Heavy curtains were drawn to the sides, framing the view like a painting.
Harry watched her take it all in, a small smile tugging at his lips. âSo? What do you think?â
âItâs⌠incredible,â Y/N whispered, stepping into the room. She walked over to the windows, pressing her hands against the glass as she gazed out at the city. âI donât think Iâd ever sleep. Iâd just stay up staring at this view.â
âWell, lucky for you,â Harry said, coming up behind her and resting his hands gently on her shoulders, âthe bed is comfortable enough to make you forget about the view.â
She turned to look at him, her cheeks warming. âI donât know if thatâs possible.â
Harry grinned, his dimples on full display. âChallenge accepted, Bambi.â
He took her hand and led her to the bed, sitting down beside her. The mattress really did feel like a cloud as she sank into it.
âI was serious earlier,â Harry said, his tone softer now. âYou can sleep wherever you wantâthe bed, the couch, the office chair if youâre feeling adventurous. I just want you to be comfortable.â
Y/N smiled, her heart swelling at his thoughtfulness. âI already told you, Harry. I want to sleep here. With you.â
His eyes lit up at her words, and he leaned in to press a kiss to her forehead. âGood. Because Iâd be lying if I said I didnât want that too.â
Harry stood up, âIâll leave you to unpack. Iâve just go to make a few calls but thereâs an ensuite bathroom you can use to freshen up.â
After Harry brought her suitcase to the bedroom, he left her to unpack. Y/N unzipped it and pulled out her washbag, heading into the ensuite bathroom.
The bathroom was stunningâa walk-in shower with dark tiles and jets built into the walls. She stepped to the sink, admiring the clean lines of the vanity, and placed her washbag carefully on the counter. She couldnât help but smile when she noticed all of Harryâs skincare neatly organized in a cute little spinning containerâit was such a contrast to her own chaotic setup. But then her eyes landed on the glass by the sink, where his toothbrush rested.
Beside it was a pink toothbrush.
Her heart softened at the sight, a warm flutter spreading through her chest. There was something about that simple detail that made her feel all warm and gooey inside. Sheâd never believed she would find someone sheâd want to spend so much time with but here she was staying the night with Harry and about to meet his friends.Â
Y/N walked into the living room, where Harry was already sitting on the couch with his laptop perched on her lap. He smiled when he saw her, and then his gaze fell to the object she was holding. âIs that Monopoly?â he asked, raising an eyebrow.
Y/N nodded, her grin widening. âYeah, itâs the original version. I asked my brothers if I could bring it with me since we've had this set forever, and they would absolutely murder me if I lost any pieces. We have to be able to play it at Christmas."
The corner of Harryâs lips quirked in amusement. âHmm, may I ask why you decided to bring Monopoly with you today?â
Y/N paused, clearly puzzled. âIsnât that what people do at sleepovers? Play games?â
Harryâs grin spread wider. As she stepped closer, he reached out, pulling her toward him. She ended up collapsing onto his chest with a soft laugh.
âOh, Bambi,â he murmured, showering her face with quick kisses. His lips tickled her skin, making her giggle uncontrollably. âYouâre the most precious girl Iâve ever known, you know that?â
She smiled up at him, her cheeks flushed. âDoes that mean you want to play?â
Harry gave a dramatic sigh, still grinning. âOf course! Are you kidding me? I love this game.â
Y/N raised an eyebrow, her voice playful. âWell, be prepared. Iâm not one to brag, but Iâm pretty good at it.â
His eyes lit up with challenge. âOh, Bambiâs competitive, I see.â
A spark flickered in her eyes as she leaned in slightly, âJust a little.â
. . .
Harry loved discovering the many layers of his Bambi. To the outside world, she was shy and quiet, but to him, she was a multi-faceted woman, full of surprises he was peeling back one by one. Yet this afternoon might have revealed his favorite side of her yet.
Y/Nâs eyes sparkled with excitement and mischief as she declared her victory in Monopolyâlong before the game had officially ended. Harry had debated whether to let her win, as any gentleman might, but it turned out he didnât need to. She was fiercely competitive and had wiped the floor with him in just thirty minutes.
If time had allowed, Harry wouldâve played another round or concocted a new game just to watch her face light up with that same playful energy. The afternoon spent with her, laughing over a simple board game, had him envisioning Christmas mornings and holiday traditions for years to come. It was silly, perhaps, to think so far ahead so early in their relationship, but he didnât care. He couldnât picture a future without Bambi in it.
Still, as the game wrapped up, he could see her nerves creep back in. The mention of preparing to meet his friends made her retreat into herself, her earlier exuberance melting into quiet apprehension. Despite his reassurances, Harry knew sheâd wrestle with her anxiety until the dinner was behind them.
His friends, on the other hand, were eager to meet her. Their group chat had been buzzing with excitement about âthe girl who finally tied him down.â Since Harryâs family was back in England, his friends were the closest thing he had to family in LA, making their opinions matter. But he had no doubt theyâd love her.
In the living room, Harry waited for Y/N to finish getting ready, dressed in his tailored dark suit with a relaxed fit. The loose white tank underneath, with its wide scoop neckline, subtly revealed his tattoos, and the Pleasing logo stitched at the hem added a personal touch. Cream-colored loafers and white socks completed the look, his short curls neatly styled to keep them from obscuring his face.
The click of the bedroom door snapped him from his thoughts. He rose from the sofa, as alert as a puppy hearing its owner return. When Y/N stepped out, the oxygen seemed to leave the room entirely.
Her dress was light pink, soft and flowing, with thin spaghetti straps and a V-shaped neckline that showcased her dĂŠcolletage. The slightly sheer fabric hinted at her elegant curves, while the asymmetrical hemline added a whimsical touch. Her hair was slicked back into a high ponytail, and her makeup was pink-toned and dewy, enhancing her natural glow. She paired the dress with strappy silver heels and a small, dainty bag dangling from her shoulder.
Her hand clung to her opposite arm, feeling vulnerable as she stood before him. Harry felt his breath hitch, his lips parting as he tried to absorb how breathtaking she looked.
âBambiâŚâ he managed, his voice low and reverent.
Her cheeks flushed. âIs it too much?â she asked softly.
Harry stepped closer, taking her hands in his and pressing a kiss to her knuckles. âYou look beautiful. I donât even have the words to tell you how incredible you are.â
She ducked her head, shy like the deer he affectionately nicknamed her after. âThank you. You look very handsome, too,â she said with a smile.
âThank you, baby,â he murmured, his gaze fixed on her like she was the only thing in the world.
âDo you like my dress?â she asked, her voice tentative.
Harryâs hands slid to her waist, feeling the soft fabric and the gentle curve of her silhouette. âI love it.â
âI made it,â she admitted, her blush deepening.
His brows lifted in surprise. âYou did?â
She nodded, and Harry was awestruck. Heâd seen her sketches beforeâones she had reluctantly shared after he beggedâbut seeing her creations come to life was something else entirely.
Harry glanced at his watch, sighing reluctantly. âWe should probably get going, but firstâŚâ He pulled out his phone, aiming it at the two of them. Y/N laughed, trying to push the camera away, but eventually relented, leaning in to kiss his cheek just as he snapped the photo. His grin widened, his eyes crinkling with joy.
Taking her hand, he asked, âDo you need a jacket?â His gaze flicked to her bare arms.
âIâll be okay, as long as the bar has heating,â she replied with a small laugh.
Harry chuckled but grabbed a jacket on their way out anyway. He knew her well enough to anticipate the moment sheâd get cold but wouldnât say a word about it.
The drive to the bar felt like it took forever, thanks to the heavy city traffic. Harryâs hand remained warm on her thigh, and she wrapped her arm around his, seeking comfort from his touch. She chewed on her bottom lip, a nervous habit she couldnât seem to stop.
âA little,â she confessed, glancing over at him. âI just want them to like me. Iâve never had to introduce myself to anyoneâs friends before... I donât want to mess up.â
âYouâll be fine, Bambi,â Harry reassured her, his voice calm as always. Heâd said it so many times already, and she knew heâd say it dozens more if she needed to hear it. âJust be yourself. Thatâs all you need to be.â
Y/N wouldnât say it out loud, but the age difference between her and Harryâs friends had been weighing on her mind all evening. The nine-year gap between her and Harry had never been an issue for themâit felt inconsequential when they were together. But his friends might see it differently.
What if they thought she was too young, too inexperienced, too⌠immature for someone like him? Worse, what if they assumed she was with him for his success, for the money he worked so hard to earn? The mere thought made her stomach twist. She didnât want to be judged on circumstances she couldnât change or assumptions she couldnât dispel.
Harryâs friends meant a lot to him, and their approvalâor lack of itâwould sting far more than she cared to admit.
She nodded anyway, letting out a slow breath and turning her gaze to the window. The city lights blurred outside, their glow reflecting in her eyes. Even though his words helped calm her, she still couldnât shake the nerves.
When they pulled up to the bar, the fancy building loomed in front of them. A valet was already waiting, and Y/N couldnât help but notice how Harry always seemed to have the luxury treatment everywhere they went. It was a reminder of how different her world was from his, but she tried not to dwell on it.
As Harry stepped out of the car, Y/N noticed the photographers waiting outside. It wasnât a surprise, but it still made her stomach tighten. Harry wasnât a mega-celebrity, but he was well-known enough in the business world that the occasional paparazzi was inevitable.
Harry opened the door for her, his hand gently resting on her hip as he helped her out. His arm wrapped around her, pulling her close. He kissed the top of her head, and it felt like both a reassurance for her and a subtle message to the photographers.
The bar was dimly lit and sophisticated with shiny tables and chairs with red upholstery. Live jazz music played as people chatted over glasses of wine that probably cost more than Y/Nâs monthly wages had to offer. âDo you own this bar?â Y/N asked, clinging a little bit tighter to Harryâs hand.Â
Harry chuckled, his eyes dancing with amusement. âNot this one,â he said, guiding Y/N toward a booth at the back of the bar. As they approached, the laughter of a group already seated at the table reached her ears. The sound was warm, familiar, like a group of people who had known each other for years.
A man with long brunette hair had his arm around a woman with similar dark hair that cascaded in waves down her shoulders. The two of them were laughing, their faces lit up in shared joy, and Y/N couldnât help but feel a little nervous as they neared the group.
Before she could even take a deep breath, one of the men spotted them walking over. He had a rugged beard, and he stood up with a grin, his drink in hand.
âHarry!â he called out, extending his hand.
Harry gave him a knowing grin and shook his hand firmly, his other arm still wrapped around Y/N. âMate,â he greeted warmly, pulling him into a quick hug.
Y/N watched the exchange, trying to hide the anxious flutter in her stomach. She wasnât sure what to expect, but she knew this was an important moment for her. She hadnât met many of Harryâs close friends yet, and she couldnât shake the feeling that this would be a defining momentâhow they reacted to her, how sheâd fit in with this group that meant so much to him.
The man with the beard turned to Y/N, his eyes flickering with curiosity, and then he offered her a smile. âYou must be Y/N,â he said, his tone warm and welcoming. âItâs great to finally meet you.â
Y/N smiled, a little relieved at the friendly tone in his voice. âYeah, itâs nice to meet you too,â she replied, her nerves still there but starting to ease. âIâve heard so much about you guys.â
Harry stood beside her, his hand still resting at the small of her back, offering her silent support as she navigated this new territory.Â
The man with the beard grinned as he stepped back, giving Y/N a moment to breathe. "This is Mitch," Harry said, gesturing to the man with long brunette hair who was seated next to a woman with equally dark hair. Mitch gave her a warm, easy smile, his arm casually wrapped around Sarahâs shoulders.
"Itâs great to meet you, Y/N," Mitch said, his voice easy and friendly. "Harryâs told us all about you."
Y/Nâs nerves eased a little more as Mitchâs friendly demeanor helped her feel at home. "I hope itâs all good things," she said, a nervous laugh escaping her lips.
"Oh, definitely," Mitch replied, nudging Harry with his elbow and giving him a teasing grin.Â
Sarah, Mitchâs girlfriend, stood up from the booth with a bright smile, her waves of dark hair catching the light. She reached out to shake Y/Nâs hand, her voice warm and welcoming. âHi! Iâm Sarah. Itâs so nice to finally meet you.â
Y/Nâs heart fluttered, but Sarahâs friendly tone immediately put her at ease. âNice to meet you too,â she replied with a smile, trying to match Sarahâs warmth. "Harry's mentioned you guys a lot."
âGood things, I hope,â Sarah teased, winking as she sat back down beside Mitch.
Before Y/N could respond, a deep voice from the other side of the booth spoke up. âYou must be Y/N,â a man with a thick beard said, âIâm Jamie.â
âItâs good to meet you,â Y/N smiled.
Jamie gave her a smile that seemed to take up half his face, his eyes twinkling with humor. "Harryâs been keeping us in the loop." He offered her a firm handshake, his grip warm. âItâs about time we met the girl who finally has him whipped.â
Finally, a woman sitting across from Jamie stood up, her presence immediately commanding attention. Alessia was strikingâher short hair framed her face with confidence, and her posture was strong. She offered Y/N a small, warm smile. "Iâm Alessia," she said, extending a hand. "Itâs so good to meet you. Iâve heard a lot about you from Harry."
"Nice to meet you too," Y/N said, shaking her hand with a smile. There was something calming about Alessiaâs assuredness that made Y/N feel at ease, even though she was a little more reserved than the others.
As Alessia returned to her seat, Harryâs hand still rested on Y/Nâs back, a silent comfort in the midst of the introductions, as they sat in the booth next to Sarah and Mitch. His friends were exactly as heâd describedâkind, welcoming, and playful. They were a perfect match for Harry and that bought a sense of relief to her.Â
âCan I get you a drink?â Harry murmured to Y/N, his hand gently brushing against hers as he leaned in.
Y/N hesitated, biting her lip. She had never really drunk alcohol beforeânot because she didnât want to, but simply because she never really went out drinking. Whenever she was out with her brothers, she always stuck to something safe like Coke or Sprite. She felt a little embarrassed to admit that she wasnât sure what to order.
âUmâŚâ She fumbled for words, feeling self-conscious. "I...I don't really know what to drink."
Harryâs smile softened, as if he understood right away. âWould you like me to pick something for you?â
Y/N felt a wave of relief wash over her. He wasnât making her feel stupid. "Yes, please," she said gratefully, a slight smile tugging at the corners of her lips.
With a nod, Harry turned and motioned for the guys to follow him toward the bar. As they walked off, Y/N felt her nerves kick in again. She was left standing with Sarah and Alessia, the two women who already seemed so at ease with each other and the group.
Y/N suddenly felt a little out of her element. She wasnât used to hanging out with other women in this kind of setting. With her brothers, everything was easy and casual, but this... this felt different. She was afraid that her awkwardness would be obvious, so she searched for something to say, anything to break the silence.
It didnât take long for Sarah to sense her discomfort. She leaned forward with a welcoming smile. âWhereâs your dress from? Itâs gorgeous,â she asked, her voice light and friendly.
Y/N's face softened at the compliment, and she felt more at ease. âOh, um, I actually made it,â she said, a little shy but proud. "I love fashion, so Iâve been sketching designs for a while."
Sarahâs eyes widened, impressed. âWait, you made it? Thatâs amazing!â She looked at Y/N with genuine admiration. âIt looks beautiful on you. I honestly thought it was something you bought from a high-end store.â
Y/N laughed softly, feeling a bit shy but happy with the compliment. âThanks, that means a lot. Iâve kept a lot of my sketches in an old notebook, but Iâve always wanted to show them to someone.â
âI would love to see them sometime,â Sarah said enthusiastically. âIâm obsessed with fashion too. Maybe we can swap ideas sometime.â
Alessia, who had been listening with a smile, chimed in. âYouâre really talented. Iâm sure Harryâs lucky to have someone so creative around especially with his company.âÂ
âDo you guys work in fashion too?â Y/N asked, genuinely curious about the two women sheâd just met.
âJust Harry, Iâm afraid,â Sarah replied with a playful smile. âWe all went to art school, though. Mitch and I own an art gallery together, and Jamie runs a theatre company.â
âAnd I design album art for artists,â Alessia added, her voice warm and casual.
Y/Nâs eyes widened in genuine awe. âWow. Thatâs so impressive. Is that how you all met? Through art school?â
âYep, we were kind of the outcasts of our year group,â Sarah said with a chuckle, âso we stuck together. And look where we are now.â
Y/N smiled, feeling the closeness between the group. âThatâs so cool. And... were you and Mitch together back then?â
âOh no,â Alessia laughed, shaking her head. âSarah and Mitch didnât get together until after art school. It was excruciating to witnessâthose two pining over each other for four years and never doing anything about it.â
Y/N couldnât help but laugh at Alessiaâs blunt description. âThat sounds like a movie.â
âIt kind of was,â Sarah said, laughing with her. âBut it worked out in the end.â
âI bet Harry told you about us,â Alessia continued, leaning in a bit. âHe told us he was bringing you tonight, and we were all nervous, actually.â
Y/N raised her eyebrows, surprised. âReally? I was nervous too.â
âAre you kidding? After Harryâs last âgirlfriend,ââ Sarah said with a playful eye-roll, âwe thought weâd be meeting some bitchy gold-digger whoâd be all over him, trying to separate him from us. But then we met you, and it was like, thank Godâyouâre nothing like that. Honestly, weâre so relieved.â
âHarry talks about you non-stop,â Alessia added with a teasing grin. âFor the last month and a half, itâs been âY/N this, Y/N that,â in our group chat. Itâs kind of sweet, honestly.â
âReally?â Y/N blinked, her face softening with surprise.
Sarah smiled warmly. âYeah, donât worry, itâs nice to hear. He deserves someone who treats him right, you know? Especially after everything heâs done for all of us.â
Alessia nodded, her expression turning a little more serious. âHe got me out of some serious debt. I was on the brink of losing everything, close to being homeless... but Harry stepped in. He rented me a place, helped me get back on my feet, and even called in a favor that landed me my first real job. Heâs the most caring person I know.â
Y/Nâs heart warmed at Alessiaâs words. This wasnât the first time sheâd heard someone speak so highly of Harry, but it never failed to move her. Hearing it from his friends, people who had seen him at his best and worst, made her realise just how deeply Harry cared about the people in his lifeâand just how lucky she was to be part of it.Â
Soon Harry returned with the boys, sliding into the seat next to her. He placed a drink in front of her, âI got you an Aperol Spritz but if you donât like it I can get you something else.â He told her.Â
âThank you,â She beamed up at him and took a sip of her drink. It was light and bubbly with a slight bitter yet citrusy taste. The more she drank, the more she enjoyed the taste of it. Â
Harry continued conversing with his friends, and Y/N found herself enjoying the easy banter between them. It was nice to see this side of himârelaxed, almost boyish, and playful. The way his friends teased each other with such familiarity made her smile, and it felt like she was catching a glimpse of Harryâs world before sheâd come into it.
She liked his friends. All of them were warm and welcoming, each with their own distinct personalities, but there was a genuine closeness that she could see. They kept her in the loop, filling in the gaps on things she might not have fully understoodâlike an inside joke or a shared memoryâuntil she felt like she was beginning to grasp the dynamics between them.
Sarah and Alessia were especially attentive, constantly asking her questions and trying to learn everything about her. Y/N appreciated their curiosity and kindness. They didnât make her feel like an outsider, instead showing genuine interest in her life and her background.Â
Every so often, Y/N would catch Harry looking down at her. Heâd check in on her, his gaze soft, making sure she was okay and not feeling overwhelmed. His protective instincts were clear, and she was grateful for it. He didnât hover, but whenever he could, heâd quietly reassure her with a small smile or a squeeze of her hand under the table.
Despite the lively atmosphere, Y/N felt like she wasnât just another guest at the tableâshe was part of the conversation, part of the group. And it was easy to relax into that sense of belonging as the night wore on. Even though she was still a little out of her comfort zone, she couldnât help but feel more at ease with every passing minute, especially with Harry so nearby.
She laughed at something Sarah had said, a light, genuine sound that felt more natural than she expected. The whole night had been surprisingly fun, and for once, she was enjoying being part of something so lively, instead of shrinking back. Â
âSo Y/N, whatâs Harry like as a boyfriend?â Jamie asked, causing Y/N to freeze in her seat.
Harryâs hand stilled from where it had been drawing invisible circles on her knee. The table seemed to pause, sensing the awkwardness in the air.
âThat bad?â Jamie chuckled, trying to lighten the moment.
Y/Nâs mind scrambled for the right words. She wasnât sure how to describe their relationshipâthings were still new, and they had never really put a label on it beyond "dating." Her mouth felt dry as she fumbled for a response.
âU-um, weâre notâ I donât thinkââ Y/N stumbled, her face flushing. She didnât know how to put it into words, not wanting to make things awkward or overthink it.
Before she could continue, Sarah quickly chimed in with a grin, âA better boyfriend than you.â
The entire table burst out laughing, and the tension in the air seemed to lift immediately. Jamie threw his hands up in mock defeat, shaking his head with a smirk.
âAlright, alright. Iâll take the loss. But Iâm definitely curious now,â he said, leaning forward. âWhat makes Harry such a great boyfriend, then?â
Y/N glanced at Harry, meeting his eyes, which were filled with amusement but also a warmth that made her heart skip. "Yeah, Bambi, what am I like as a boyfriend?"
Her lips parted at the question. It was the first time he had referred to their relationship so openly, and the realisation hit her in a way that made her smile nervously.
âWell,â Y/N began, her voice softening as she relaxed, âheâs incredibly thoughtful. Heâs always checking in on me, making sure Iâm alright, andâhe actually listens. Heâs not the kind of guy who brushes off what I say or rushes through things. Heâs really present.â
Harryâs hand slid over to hers under the table, his fingers intertwining with hers in a quiet show of support. He squeezed her hand gently, his gaze tender, saying everything without needing words.
âAnd heâs fun,â Y/N added with a light laugh, her nervousness easing. âHe doesnât take himself too seriously, which is honestly one of my favorite things about him.â
Harryâs smile deepened at her words, and there was something in the way he looked at herâlike he was asking her a question without saying it aloud. âI love it⌠Being his girlfriend.â Y/N blushed but Harryâs face widened into a grin, one of his dimples appearing on his cheek.Â
The group exchanged knowing glances, clearly enjoying the moment. Alessia raised her glass, her eyes twinkling.
âTo Y/N, we wish you all the luck in the world for having to put up with us.â she said, toasting her with a wink.
Everyone joined in, lifting their glasses, and Y/N felt her heart swell at the way Harryâs friends rallied around them.Â
. . .
Y/N hadnât noticed how much Harry had had to drink until his head rested on her shoulder, in the middle of her conversing some more with Sarah and Alessia, âThink I want to go home Bambi,â He murmured. Y/N pushed his droopy curls back and saw the hazy look in his eye, a lazy smile on his lip, âSo pretty,â His lips puckered as he spoke.Â
Y/N giggled, âHow are we meant to get home silly, you drove us here.â
âOh yeah,â Harry huffed, âI did didnât I?â
Sarah chuckled, âWe can drop you guys home on the way back to our place. Weâll just tell the valet to keep hold of his car. He can pick it up tomorrow as punishment.âÂ
Y/N laughed softly, nodding her thanks to Sarah. "That sounds like a good plan," she said, looking down at Harry, whose cheek was now squished adorably against her shoulder. He was humming a tune she couldnât quite place, the sound low and soothing despite his obvious tipsiness.
Harryâs hand found hers under the table, his fingers clumsily lacing through hers. âYâ make me the happiest Bambi. âM so happy yâ mâ girlfriend.â he mumbled, his words slightly slurred but unmistakably earnest.
Y/Nâs cheeks flushed, her heart skipping a beat. âThatâs a lot of happy,â
âIt is isnât it?â Harry laughs.Â
Sarah stood up, grabbing her bag. âAlright, letâs get you two lovebirds home.â
Y/N helped him to his feet. He wobbled slightly, leaning heavily against her. âYouâre my favorite person ever, you know that?â he said as they made their way to the exit, his voice loud enough to draw a few amused glances from nearby tables.
âI think Iâm starting to get the idea,â Y/N replied, her tone affectionate as she wrapped an arm around his waist to steady him.
âIâm hungry,â he announced loudly. âCan we get chips? Or pizza?â
âLetâs get you home first, superstar,â Mitch said, clapping him on the back and making Harry stumble slightly into Y/N.
âYouâre my hero,â Harry murmured dramatically as they shuffled toward the car, his arm draped over her shoulder. âYou saved me, Bambi. Youâre the best.â
âYouâre going to think otherwise when you see how many embarrassing photos Sarah and Alessia probably took tonight,â Y/N quipped, her laughter blending with the othersâ as they piled into the car.
âEmbarrassing?â Harry blinked at her, his expression mock-serious. âNever. I look good in all lighting.â
Y/N shook her head, letting out a laugh as Harryâs head found her shoulder once more. âWeâll see about that in the morning,â she said, her voice fond.
Harry let out a contented sigh. âYou smell so nice,â he murmured sleepily.
Y/N giggled, smoothing her hand over his curls. âYouâre ridiculous.â
As the car pulled away from the bar, Harry mumbled something about her being âtoo good for himâ before trailing off into a soft snore. Y/N looked down at him, her heart swelling. Even in his drunken, clumsy state, he had a way of making her feel like the most important person in the world.
Once Sarah and Mitch dropped them off right at Harryâs front door, Y/N was left with the daunting task of lugging Harry to his room. He wasnât exactly helping, his body swaying dramatically as she tried to steady him.
âHarry, youâre not making this easy,â she huffed, half-laughing as he stumbled. By some miracle, she managed to guide him to the bed, where he flopped downâhalf on the mattress, half on the floor.
âMission accomplished,â she muttered under her breath, crouching down to untie his laces. But just as she reached for his shoe, he playfully kicked his foot away, his lips curling into a cheeky grin.
âCâmere, Bambi,â he murmured, his voice low and a little slurred.
Y/N stood, brushing off her knees, only to find herself being tugged down onto the bed when he grabbed her wrist. She landed on top of him with a surprised gasp, her hands braced against his chest.
âHarry!â she exclaimed softly, but he didnât say anything, just looked up at her with those green eyes, hazy but full of something she couldnât quite describe.
For a moment, neither of them spoke. The world around them seemed to blur as they gazed at each other, an unspoken connection passing between them. Harry reached up, his fingers gently tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. The faint smell of alcohol lingered on his breath, but his touch was steady, his expression achingly tender.
âMean it,â he whispered, his voice barely audible. âYou make me the happiest.â
Y/Nâs heart twisted at the sincerity in his words, her breath catching in her throat. Her lips curved into a soft smile as she cupped his cheek, her thumb brushing against his skin. âYou make me the happiest too, Harry.â

MY BEATINâ HEART BELONGS TO YOU - L.H.
Summary: Logan believed he was sentenced to a life of solitude until he found you - an unexpected dawn promising the sunrise of a love he always deemed impossible. But then again, destiny never was merciful to fools like him.
Pairing: Logan Howlett x Female Reader
Warnings: Soulmate AU, All aboard the Fluff Train with scheduled stops at Angst Station, Established relationship, Hurt/Comfort, How I Met Your Mother reference (iykyk), Reader can manipulate electricity
A/N: 5.9k - strap in, gang. Would you believe me if I said all this was inspired by a debate I had with a friend about the implications of 'I want you' vs 'I need you'. The mind works in silly, little ways sometimes. Title creds to Green Day. Enjoy, you lovely people!
MASTERLIST
Gone were the days when nightmares would rouse him from the sanctuary of sleep. Logan couldn't remember the last time he'd awoken in a cold sweat, sheets shredded from fighting invisible monsters, alarm clock glaring an angry red amongst the darkness. No, all that disappeared once you'd made a home within his arms.
It had been about three months, verging on four if anyone was keeping count - and he, most definitely, was - since you'd swept him away in a tide of fondness and pure affection. The shadow of a man who once roamed the mansion now nurtured a newfound lightness in his heart. Logan wasn't perfect, far from it, chosen paths that only led to a labyrinth of despair, but he was right about one thing: you.
And that verdict especially rings true every morning. The tangle of limbs, the soft ebb and flow of sleepy murmurs, the stray kisses grazing warm skin, he wonders how he'd survived so long deprived of such tender pleasures. He's never going back, that much he knows.
His lips trace a lazy line along your neck, lingering a second longer beneath your jaw. There's a chuckle aching to break through at the thought of your sleep-induced irritation - itâs too early, you'd whine each time. And each time, his half-hearted apologies would be long-forgotten as you meet his gaze, a tempest of desire swirling within hazel.
It's amidst the following moments of peace when he's most thankful for the thick walls surrounding the room. The aftermath of your intimate exchanges always leaves him mesmerised, heart racing at the reminder of your touch. His mutation didn't allow for the full effects of alcohol to poison his inhibitions, yet as your smile gleams at him, Logan's sure he's never been more drunk.
"Where're you goin'?"
He's shaken from his musings as you roll away from his embrace, huffing in disbelief when you don't seem to stop. But, the string of complaints dies on his tongue as he watches you slip on the shirt he'd discarded the night before, turning around amused, "What? You wanna stay here all day?"
"Got nowhere to be."
"Correction - you have nowhere to be. I, on the other hand, need to grade those assignments or Jean'll actually explode my brain this time."
Logan hmphs. He'd been looking forward to lounging around this weekend, positively thrilled at the idea of letting the hours simply trickle away in the quiet comfort of your company. However, he's also one too familiar with Jean's intolerance for slacking off and lessons were definitely learned.
"Let her try," he counters meekly.
As you circle the bed to part ways with a chaste kiss, Logan seizes the opportunity to pull you down, pinning you beneath him in one effortless move. His lips capture yours with a deliberate, sensual slowness - the urgency from earlier now completely absent. The feeble protests vanish from your mind as he breaks away, a twinkle of mischief playing on his smile.
His fingers trace the curve of your wrist, hovering over the faint crescent moon inked in black. It was the mark of your soulmate. Of him, he hopes. You'd shown him quite early into the relationship, spending many a night whispering theories and speculations about its meaning. At first, he expressed only timid fascination, a question here and there spurred by gentle curiosity while you rambled on and on. But as his heart began to tether itself to yours, the mark took on a new significance. Every time his gaze fell upon it, his thoughts would spiral from longing and self-doubt, wondering if he was the one destined to share a lifetime with you.
Over the decades he'd been alive, Logan had searched every crevice of his body for his own. In his youth, it was a fleeting thought, brushed aside by the assumption that his healing factor wouldn't allow for these scars. Yet as time passed, he was terrified of waking up to a branded promise - a cruel trick that condemned his soulmate to a life with him. After he met you, those fears were soon eclipsed by a yearning, a desperate hope for a sign of his worthiness. Every day, he lingered by the mirror, gaze sweeping across his reflection, praying for an identical crescent moon to mark his skin.
"Logan." Your laugh draws his attention, "I'm never leaving the bed at this rate."
"Darlin', that's the general idea."
He relents anyway, falling onto his back with a soft grunt as you stand up. The dopey grin you're biting has him narrowing his eyes in suspicion, wondering what goddamn joke popped into your mind. Before he can question it, you straighten your posture and salute, "General Idea."
A look of confusion contorts his features, though he doesn't get anything besides a mumbled response as you leave the room, "Never mind, it's from a show."
A mountain of papers sits perched on your desk illuminated by the warm glow of the lamp, the scratching of your pen punctuating the silence of the classroom as you continue grading your students' assignments. It had been a couple of hours since you left Logan amongst the nest of blankets. And that image only seemed more enticing with each word you read.
"Missed ya."
Speak of the devil.
Except this devil was an angel - you could almost see a halo shimmering around his figure, backlit by the sunlight flooding the hallway. Every time you think you've captured the essence of his allure, he defies your expectations, often with just a simple gesture. And despite the countless compliments and declarations of adoration, Logan still seemed surprised by flattery, his lips always seeking yours to hide the blush creeping up his cheeks.
"I just saw you like - "
"In the shower," he interrupts, smirk widening as he approaches. He leans against the chair, nose brushing against your exposed shoulder.
Something in your brain short-circuits at his words and the casual display of affection. You stammer a little, "You⌠didn't tell me."
"Oh, that would've worked hm?" Logan spins the chair around, chuckling as he catches your flustered expression, "'M sorry, sweetheart... guess I gotta make it up to ya."
You never thought Logan was a romantic. Yet, time and time again you discover the depths of his boundless capacity for love and companionship. It wasn't just the whispered promises and passionate revelations, but the quiet moments, the stolen glances, the tender touches that speak volumes. Neither of you had uttered those three words yet, though they hang heavy in the air, unspoken but deeply felt.
His hand winds up beneath your shirt, bunching the fabric near your waist as he pulls you closer. Heat, courtesy of the shower, wafts off his skin, a tantalizing sensation that makes your breath hitch. His tongue toys with your lower lip, teasing just enough that you find yourself chasing after him, desperate for more. The laugh he produces, though smug, is also contagious, a sound that never fails to swallow your heart.
Again and again, he'd professed his desire to unravel you by his sheer touch, how your craving for him sets his insides ablaze. And judging by the way your eyes darken, mouth parting almost reflexively, he's got you dancing to his tune like a puppet on a string - and you wouldn't have it any other way.
But he backs off all of a sudden.
A crescendo of footsteps echoes down the hallway and the moment is shattered. Three of your students barge in, out of breath and frazzled as they clutch their assignments. A frown creases Logan's brow, annoyance he's certainly putting no effort to hide has them second-guessing their intrusion until you beckon them in with a warm smile. With a hasty apology, they fumble with their papers, eyes darting between the two of you before rushing out, the door swinging shut.
"We gotta find a place," he grumbles, dipping forward into your neck.
"We already live together."
A sharp click of his tongue, a playful nip to your shoulder, seals his disapproval, "Not enough. Lil' brats interrupt every damn time."
He wasn't wrong in the slightest. The kids did seem to have an uncanny ability to sense the most inopportune times to interfere. Sometimes you joked that it was one of their mutant powers and Logan, with an amused roll of his eyes, would just scoff and agree. You can't help but chuckle, "'Least it wasn't Scott... I think we traumatised him last week."
It was indeed last week when the two of you retreated to the Danger Room. Of course, with the sole and noble intention of honing your defensive tactics. However, the moment you strategically knocked him off his feet, the situation had taken a decidedly different turn. Pinned beneath you, Logan held a look of astonishment that soon morphed into something much more eager. He'd uttered all of two words before your lips slammed against his and whatever hopes you had for training immediately became the least of your worries. That was until somebody walked in.
He huffs a laugh, the memory filling him with satisfaction, "Should've used his fuckin' brain with those sounds you were makin'."
"Oh god, poor Scott," you mumble, embarrassed by the thought.
"Quit sayin' his name." The growl that curls his words leaves goosebumps in its wake. Logan grips your chin, tilting your head back slightly, a slow grin unfurling as his gaze bores into yours.
"I said it twice!" you protest, but it's all in vain. His thumb drags across your lip, silencing your words.
"That's two more than I care for."
It's dark outside by the time he's done with you.
Sugar melts on his tongue, the velvety texture of chocolate dancing across his palate. Logan takes a rather indulgent sip, the steaming liquid warming his throat. Nestled on opposite sides of the window seat, the two of you share a quiet moment accompanied by nothing but pale moonlight. A comforting weight settles on your feet, his hand kneading the stress away with care. Outside, a delicate snowfall paints the mansion's grounds, grass slowly fading away, droplets racing down the windowpane.
Dinner had wound down hours ago. The kids gathered around the living room after, wide-eyed with wonder as the first snow of the season began. Charles eventually ushered them off to bed, Logan had planned to follow suit until your gentle tug derailed his desire to sleep altogether. And as always, there's no world where he'd deny you anything.
He sees you stifle a giggle every now and then, your eyes twinkling with amusement each time he lifts his mug. It was nothing fancy - mostly white, adorned with a line of stockings and, cheekily, the words "Well hung".
It was a present from you a few Christmases ago. He remembers you watching him warily unwrap the box, laughing out of giddiness as he blushed when the implication dawned on him. It's just a silly gift, you'd reassured, not pressuring him to even keep it. Yet, since then, it remained a permanent fixture on his bedside table. During restless nights, he'd reach for the familiar mug, seeking solace in the kitchen to drink away the looming shadows of insomnia.
It wasn't until your first night together that you saw it again after all those years, carefully placed and by far, the cleanest thing on his table. Logan ducked his head sheepishly before confessing just how much he treasured the sentiment. In a lifetime of solitude, someone had spared a second to think about him, even for a simple gag gift. And that thought warmed his heart a little on especially hard days.
"You're a child," he chides as you smile, rolling his eyes.
You scoff under your breath, "Oh, just cause you're a hundred years old."
"Hundred and sixty," he corrects, grabbing your foot mid-air before you can nudge his thigh. There's a brief pause as he places the mug aside, a wicked grin splitting his lips. Laughter fills the air as you squirm and wriggle away, quickly understanding the look behind his eyes. But Logan moves faster. His hands trail their way to your sides, drawing squeals of protest as he tickles you.
Seconds later, he backs off, satisfied by your reaction. Shifting his weight, he settles on top of you with a gentle press. As he lays against your chest, humming softly in contentment, the soothing caress of your fingers through his hair lulls him into a state of relaxation. The world simply fades away, replaced by the warmth of your embrace and the quiet flush of domestic bliss. A profound swell of gratitude spreads within his heart. It's during intimate moments like these that he feels especially lucky. A far cry from the man brought into this mansion years ago, times you also reflect on amidst late-night conversations.
The memories remain as vivid as yesterday.
It was late in the afternoon, the setting sun casting long silhouettes across the classroom. You stood by the blackboard, explaining the laws of electromagnetism while scribbling equations in chalk. For months, you'd taken over Charles' role as the physics professor, and what began as a favour soon grew into a passion. However, some days were particularly slow. A palpable sense of boredom washed over your students as their eyes drifted towards the clock in anticipation. Just as you were about to begrudgingly dismiss them, the door flew open - a dishevelled figure clad in gray burst in, wildly panting in fear and confusion.
This must be Logan, you concluded, recalling the latest mission debrief from Scott and Storm. They'd rescued two mutants in Canada, one of whom was particularly banged up and recovering in the med bay. Well, until now. Since their arrival, Charles had emphasised the erratic nature of Logan's mind, even unconscious, a part of him stayed unyielding against the telepath's powers. But as you locked eyes with him, you saw none of that. Instead, he seemed lost and terrified, glancing around the room from one corner to the next as if someone was speaking. Before you could offer a word of reassurance, he was gone, disappearing into the hallway like a fleeting shadow.
Over the following months, he slowly began to emerge from his shell. At first, it was just plain nods of acknowledgement as you passed each other in the mansion. Then, a word here and there, clipped phrases of advice and caution during particularly dangerous missions. Gradually, his presence became more pronounced. Sometimes, after intense training sessions, he'd slip into the back of your classroom, intently listening to your lectures on concepts you presumed were entirely foreign to him.
Except they weren't. It was only later that you discovered his secret: the countless hours spent poring over textbooks he'd discreetly stolen from Charles' bookshelf. The realisation filled your heart with a warm sense of affection. His unspoken interest, the hidden depths, it was all so endearing. Thereafter, Logan consumed your thoughts. And it was during one of those sleepless nights that you found the courage to join him in the kitchen, wordlessly focusing on your own books at either end of the table. Since then, a shared understanding passed between you, a bond forged from mutual appreciation and a hint of something more.
The first time he cracked a smile left you breathless. Jean was furious at Scott, her anger clear as day as she stormed away. And Scott, ever so helpless, turned to anyone for guidance, retracing every misstep, every misplaced word. Logan, watching the scene unfold, sneered to himself, enjoying the man cluelessly suffering. You exchanged a knowing look, a silent agreement on the absurdity of the situation. As you excused yourself, a fit of giggles threatening to overtake you, Logan followed close behind, unable to suppress his own laughter.
From that moment on, things changed. You found yourselves seeking each other, conversations flowed effortlessly, at times even seasoned with playful banter. And as Logan became a steady figure in your life, a strange ache settled in your heart. You were falling for him. Yet, his emotions remained a mystery, a puzzle you were desperate to solve.
One year became another, and another and another. And as your feelings for him increased, hesitation crept in rather unwillingly. You pushed everything away, burying them six feet under, afraid of rejection or something worse. But Logan, with his uncanny perceptiveness, sensed the shift in your behaviour. And one day, in a moment of raw honesty, he confronted you. A heated argument ensued, emotions spilling over, words cutting deep. Then, just as suddenly, the tension dissipated. His lips were on yours, conveying every bit of the love he carried in ways words could never bring justice to.
That was a couple of months ago. Everything was perfect and you'd never felt more complete until you noticed the brief flashes of insecurity whenever he saw the mark on your wrist. You knew he didn't have one. In the beginning, it became a sensitive topic, you started wearing a watch or longer sleeves to stop reminding him. But eventually, his unease was too much to ignore.
And so, you bit the bullet.
The conversation was fraught with discomfort, but as you spoke, his expression softened, a slight weight lifting off his shoulders. He shamefully expressed his worries, the fear of not being enough - not being the one for you. It was a small step, but one that brought you closer than ever before.
Logan couldn't have been more grateful.
"Perhaps the two of you should, what do the kids call it, get a room?"
Charles' voice suddenly cuts across the silence. All eyes, including Logan's and yours, snap up from the blueprints scattered on the table. Scott blinks in confusion, meanwhile Jean, holding back a knowing smirk, can barely contain herself.
"I've had my fair share of lewd daydreams in my youth, but that was quite disturbing," he continues, tone laced with disapproval.
Colour drains from your face. Had your thoughts really been that obvious? Sure, you couldn't stop admiring how the tight leather suit molded to Logan's physique - incredibly distracting, to say the least. But you didn't realise you were projecting your attraction so loudly, especially in a room with two telepaths.
"Sorry, Professor." It seems useless to apologise at this point, but he responds with a curt nod directed at Logan. Turning your attention to the blueprints, you feel a familiar weight against your back. Logan, the sly bastard, leans over your shoulder with feigned nonchalance. And it takes every ounce of your willpower to focus on the serious discussion instead.
A recon mission.
Some old abandoned Hydra facility used for mutant experimentation in the 90s, the remnants of failed trials left to rot and forgotten. Charles had caught wind of it through Cerebro, suspecting that there may be valuable information hidden within its walls, secrets that should very well stay away from the wrong hands.
"What's in there?" Scott asks, tensing a little.
Charles pauses, a scowl twisting his expression, "That is a private matter."
"Private Matter," you mumble without thinking, instinctively reaching for a salute before Logan catches your wrist, halting the motion. He shoots a look, a silent reprimand that very clearly implies "Not now". Fortunately, no one else witnesses your mistimed quip, too engaged in drafting a safe plan for extraction.
The mission seems fairly straightforward, a simple infiltration like many you've done before. Nevertheless, Charles concludes with a stern warning to heed caution, "Now, good luck to all of you." As you filter out the room, he casts a pointed glare, "And Logan, please refrain from defiling my desk at any point in the future."
Shock etches across your face, mouth slightly agape. Once you're out of earshot, you shove Loganâs arm in embarrassment, "It wasn't me then." You breathe in relief only to be reminded of the thoughts he seemed to be entertaining earlier. What surprises you is the fact that you're more intrigued than deterred by the idea.
"My bad, sweetheart. Couldn't help myself," he laughs, dipping in close to whisper, "Suit's makin' it real hard to think straight." And with that, he's off, jogging ahead to Scott and Jean already waiting in the hangar.
Once you're airborne, the atmosphere shifts. Jean pilots the jet, her hands steady on the controls, eyes scanning the horizon. The Hydra facility looms in the distance, a dark and ominous presence in the middle of nowhere. As you approach your destination, a sense of apprehension lingers among the four of you. Scott recounts the plan, outlining the most efficient entry and exit points, his voice low and deliberate, "Logan and I will start from top-down and you two from the opposite."
As you leave the jet, a hand slips into your own, stilling you in place. Logan tugs you into his arms, there's a faint smile playing on his lips, his eyes, however, convey something along the lines of "Be careful, please". You squeeze his hand reassuringly, pressing a quick kiss before breaking away. With a reluctant sigh, he catches up with Scott, splitting off from you and Jean.
Inside, the air is thick with the scent of decay and neglect. Everything is left exactly as it was, except there are signs of a violent struggle - machines overturned, wires strewn across the floor, glass shards crunching under your boots. It's a scene of chaos and destruction. In the center lies an operating table, its restraints snapped in half, broken syringes and discarded medical equipment scattered around.
Electricity crackles beneath your fingertips. Though your powers aren't advanced, Charles has been a patient mentor, overseeing your progress since the day he found you. However, as you keep surveying the area, you notice an odd sensation, a subtle resistance to your abilities. A similar unease grips Jean too, her gaze meeting yours, a shared look of concern exchanged as you continue your search.
A distorted voice breaks through the comms, "Upper level's clear. No sign of anything." It's Scott, barely recognisable over the static.
"Copy. Still sweeping the lower level," you respond, but it's garbled by the interference.
"Stay on alert," Jean warns, straining her telekinetic energy against the strange force permeating the facility. "Defence systems could still be active."
You venture deeper into the hallway, greeted by an eerie silence broken only by the echo of your own footsteps. A series of cells line the corridor, thick metal barricades, scarred and rusted, stand as a testament to the suffering endured by those held captive years before. Peering through the tiny barred windows, you see sterile, empty rooms, not a single bed or mattress to be found - the cold, hard concrete floor offering no comfort.
"Fuckin' hell," you murmur, chills running down your spine. Jean hums quietly in agreement, looking around in horror. The electricity you can usually detect in the background dwindles to a weak buzz. You descend a narrow staircase, the air growing heavier by the second. At the end of the hallway is another metal hatch, this time with a faded Hydra symbol etched onto its surface. With a concentrated effort, Jean manipulates the lock, the door groaning open with a distinct beep.
It's beyond dimly lit - a dark, cavernous space. You focus your powers, fighting against the invisible pressure dampening your strength, current coursing through your veins. With a snap of your wrist, the room erupts in light, fluorescent bulbs flickering awake. A row of computers surrounded by a bundle of wires and archaic machinery stretch towards the ceiling.
"Must be the control room," Jean reaches out to flip a switch, but as her fingers brush the old metal, energy jolts through your body - a warning that something is amiss.
"No - wait!" you shout, but it's too late. The metal door slams shut with a deafening clang. An agonising vibration rattles through the room, a shockwave that reverberates through your body. The two of you sink to the floor, clutching your ears as a rush of debilitating pain burns every nerve ending in your body. And you're left paralysed for what feels like an eternity.
Logan clicks his tongue as static continues pouring through the comms, he catches the tail-end of your broken reply - something something lower level - a pit of dread forming in his stomach, "Place feels off."
"You're right, I can't get a read on anything," Scott mutters, the red hue of his glasses flashing in the darkness.
Logan's eyes dart around the space, landing on a series of grotesque instruments undoubtedly used for torture. A wave of nausea washes over him, flashbacks of his own past spring forward at the sight, reminders of the days when he too was a mere subject in someone else's twisted experiments. Suddenly, the hairs on the back of his neck stand on end. An imperceptible vibration ripples beneath his feet, "The fuck was that?"
Scott immediately tries the comms again, "Jean? Wha - ", but it goes completely dead.
Logan's already barrelling through the corridors, his instincts taking over without a conscious thought. He calls for you again and again, reckless abandon fueling his every move. Screw the mission, all he wants is for you to be safe. His heart leaps into his throat as static hisses through the comms, Jean's voice muffled through the noise, "We've got... a major problem."
One second passes.
Two.
Three.
"C'mon, darlin'." The silence drags on, panic begins to seize his mind, sweat beading on his forehead. He needs to find you, now. The faint vibrations gradually become intense as he races down the staircase, "Major problem? C'mon, say your stupid joke, sweetheart. Please. Anything." His pleas, wracked with desperation, fall on deaf ears. Fear gnaws at him. Heâs itching to hear your voice, even for that little running gag he doesnât fully understand. Just any goddamn sign that you're still alive.
His senses direct him towards the metal hatch. Lunging forward, his fist connects with the barrier, claws extending at any attempt to tear through the door. Yet it holds firm, its surface barely dented or scratched by his force. Frantic, Logan rams his claws into the small security panel on the side, trying to short-circuit the lock. But the moment it's breached, a chain reaction is triggered, explosives hidden within the walls detonate with a tremendous roar. A torrent of debris and radiation thrusts him backwards, knocking him hard against the concrete.
The world around him seemingly implodes into a bedlam of sound and light, white flashes obscuring his vision. Pain, a searing, all-consuming pain diffuses through every inch of his body. His consciousness wanes, slipping away from his grasp. In the fading moments of awareness, he hears a distant crackle of electricity.
Then, nothing.
The memory of the chaos, the blinding light, the aftermath of the explosion, replay over and over. And then, there was Logan, his body limp and unresponsive, a sight that haunts your every waking moment. You remember the desperate scramble to escape the facility, the weight of his unconscious form in all your arms, the tense journey back to the mansion, Charles and Jean ushering you out of the med bay - their focus solely on stabilising him.
The night stretches on, a relentless march of time that seems to punctuate your helplessness as you pace back and forth. The lack of response from anyone doesn't quell the whirlwind of anxieties in the slightest. Every minute sound, every faint whisper, sends your heart racing. But when they finally emerge hours later, faces etched with exhaustion and relief, you can finally breathe.
For days, you sit by Logan's bedside, hands intertwined with his. The monotonous rhythm signalling his vitals is the only thing grounding you to reality. Though he remains unconscious, Jean had offered words of comfort, pointing to subtle improvements in his healing with her scans. Eventually, warmth returns to his body. His breathing, once laboured, is now full and steady. Leaning forward, you press a gentle kiss to his forehead and hope ignites within you again, just enough to draw a small, weary smile.
But then, you see it.
Glaring at you, painfully so, is a little mark on the back of his shoulder. Except, it isn't the same crescent moon that adorns your wrist. No.
Your heart sinks, breath catching in your throat, paralysis sets in once again. A single, shattering revelation echoes in your mind: Logan is not your soulmate.
He stirs awake, eyelids fluttering open. Everything slowly returns to his senses as the haze of confusion begins to clear. The first thing he notices is the familiar scent of you lingering on his skin, in the air, on the chair pulled by his side. As his vision unblurs, the blue walls of the med bay coming into view, a flood of concern smacks him in the face. Where are you? What happened? He tries to sit up, his body protesting with every movement.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you."
The mechanical hum of a wheelchair grows louder as it approaches. Charles, brimming with sympathy, rolls closer.
Logan groans, his muscles throbbing like never before, "What the hell happened? Is she - "
"She's alright, as are Scott and Jean," he interjects, though a shadow of pity clouds his expression. The unspoken weight behind his words triggers alarms in Logan's head, but before he can question him, a sharp burn shoots up his back. He winces, reaching for the source of the stinging. Beneath his fingertips, a strange, rough texture grates against his skin. He angles back to inspect it, blood running cold.
"It surfaced a week ago," Charles says grimly, "We suspect the radiation from the explosion temporarily impacted your healing, hence, the mark."
Logan can't think straight, a maelstrom of emotions engulfs every single fiber of his being - disbelief, agony and rage. How could this be real? He'd spent night after night, praying for some sort of sign, a reason for his existence. And when he found that in you, it felt like everything finally aligned. But now, destiny had struck him down with a ruthless blow, a cosmic twist of fate far worse than death.
Seven days.
That's how long it's been since you last saw him. The weight of the world bore down on you, every breath a struggle. Hours bled into one another as you stayed locked in your room, sobbing uncontrollably, your heart fracturing with each passing moment. Jean's persistent knocking eventually broke through your despair, her calm voice soothing your frayed mental state.
It took all of her gentle persuasion for you to finally eat something, to force you out of the anguish that consumed you. The news that Logan was awake and begging to see you almost crumbled the impenetrable walls you'd built up. But the thought of facing him, of confronting the fragile pieces of your harsh reality, filled you with dread.
And so, you avoided him. Retreating into yourself, a ghost of your own life, you clung to the illusion of distance. Maybe it'll somehow ease the pain, the heartbreak. You couldn't even bear to look at your own wrist, the mark - a cruel reminder of a love that was and a future that can never be. Every second of every day, mocking whispers floated around your mind, "You don't deserve him. You never did."
The moment Logan fully recovers, he immediately rushes through the mansion. Anticipation swells in his chest, there's nothing he wants more than your touch, your laughter - just you. He reaches your room, sensing the warmth from within. Hand hovering in the air, he takes a deep breath before knocking.
"Sweetheart?"
There's no response. He drops his head against the door, breathing ragged. Tears sting his eyes, threatening to spill over, the oxygen in his lungs thinning as he tries to speak, "Please. I know you're in there. Talk to me." The silence, the emptiness, it all becomes too much. He's losing you, and he can't do anything to stop it. "I know you're upset. But, please, just let me in."
Your voice comes muffled, charged with grief and sorrow, "That mark means there's someone out there for you - your real soulmate. Someone who isn't me." The words are piercing, he longs to pull you into his arms, to comfort you, to reassure you. "I am not meant for you, Logan," you choke out.
"Fuck that," he spits back. He can't accept this, that you're conceding to some inexplicable truth, "'M not givin' you up cause of some shit on my body. I choose you. And I will choose you. Every single time." It's all strangled, raw with emotion, cheeks stained with a wetness. He's wound up, a caged animal clawing at the bars. He'll fight for you, even if all the cards are against him, "Darlin', I don't care if there's someone else - they're not you. You're perfect to me. For me. The universe can go fuck itself cause I love you."
Logan goes still. He's never expressed that to you, not in this way, not with such soul-baring honesty. But, nothing has ever been more true, "I love you."
Heavy hangs the air. Then, a soft padding of footsteps, the door clicks open. Before he can react, your hands cup his face, drawing him down to your level, lips meeting in a passionate caress. Logan cradles the back of your head, deepening the kiss. The space between you, both physically and emotionally, fades away. This is all that matters, for now and forever.
His arms tighten as you pull back and tuck into the crook of his neck. The weight of your exhaustion is obvious with the shuddering sigh you let out, his heart aching for you. As you whisper apologies, he trails kisses down your face. "No, no, don't be sorry, darlin'," he says, all soft and gentle. Neither of you move, surrendering to each other, the moment suspended in time. Slowly, your trembling subsides and he smiles, the lines of misery now dimming. With delicate fingers, he brushes your tears away.
"I have a major headache," you murmur, eyes falling shut.
He huffs a laugh, saluting you with a playful grin, "Major Headache." The look of astonishment across your face brings him so much joy. "I asked Kitty, told me to watch the damn show." And Logan did watch the show - all for you - to understand the little references you kept making here and there.
"You know how to use the Internet?" you ask, incredulously.
"Don't push it, sweetheart." There's no malice behind his tone whatsoever. With a smirk, he leans forward, scooping you up in his arms and carries you to the bed. It's a familiar motion, a routine he's done hundreds of times before. But now, it's different, one thatâs even more precious.
"Logan?"
"Hm?"
"I love you too."
He knows. He knows because it's written all over you. Every word, every breath, every touch - a testament to your love for him. A love so quiet and profound, a love that has weathered storms, a love that will last until the end of time. And he's eternally grateful for it. For you.

A Morning Made For Two
Harry Styles x fem!Reader
Harry stirred to the soft golden glow of the morning light spilling through cracks of the curtains. For a moment, he simply lay there, the weight of the past seven months on tour slipping away as reality settled in: he was finally home. His gaze drifted to the figure beside him.
Y/n.
She was tucked beneath the blankets, her hair a chaotic nest against the pillow. Her cheek was squished slightly, her lips parted in an adorable pout, and the soft rise and fall of her chest was the only sound in the room. Harry felt his chest tightenânot with sadness, not with regretâbut with the kind of overwhelming love that made it hard to breathe.
He couldnât look away. For seven months, heâd woken up in sterile hotel rooms, his heart aching for moments like this. And now, here she was, so close that he could trace every freckle on her cheeks, every soft curve of her face.
âGod, I've missed youâ he murmured, his voice barely audible, as if afraid to disturb the serenity of the moment.
He propped himself up on one elbow, his hand hovering above her, like he couldnât decide where to start. Finally, he leaned down and pressed a kiss to her forehead, then another to her temple. âGood morning, baby,â he whispered, his lips brushing the shell of her ear.
Y/n shifted slightly but didnât wake ups. A soft grumble escaping her lips as she buried her face deeper into the pillow.
Harry smirked, his heart fluttering at how endearing she looked. âOh, so youâre just gonna ignore me?â he teased under his breath.
He began peppering kisses all over her faceâher cheeks, her nose, her chin, her jawline. âWake up, sleepyhead. Your husbandâs home, and he demand your attention.â
âMmm, too early,â She mumbled, her voice being muffled by the pillow. But as he kept kissing her face she weakly reached back, trying to swat him away from her. âHarry go away.â
He gasped in mock outrage. âGo away? After seven months? Thatâs the welcome I get?â
âGo away for five more minutes,â she tried to bargain, her voice still sounding half-asleep. âThen Iâll be nice to you, promise.â
Harry chuckled, his eyes crinkling with amusement. âOh, no, no, no. Youâre not getting away that easily.â He shifted, his weight pinning her down but just enough to keep her from squirming. âYou have five seconds to open those beautiful eyes, or I swear Iâm gonna tickle you until youâre begging me for mercy.â
Y/n's eyes shot open instantly, narrowing at him with mock annoyance. âYou wouldnât dare.â
âTry me bitch,â he said, his fingers twitching threateningly close to her sides, as he shot her a warning look.
âYouâre a menace,â she grumbled, but a sleepy smile tugged at her lips.
âIâm your menace,â Harry shot back, leaning down to kiss her nose. âGood morning, my love.â
Y/n groaned dramatically, âYouâre the worst.â
âAnd yet, you married me anyway,â He countered, pulling her close so that she was flush against him. His arms wrapping around her, locking her in place. âAdmit it, youâre obsessed with me.â
âIâm not obsessed,â she said, rolling her eyes. âIâm moderately fond of you. There's a big difference.â
âModerately fond, huh?â He nuzzled his face into her neck, his stubble grazing her skin, making her giggle. âSay it again, but this time without smiling.â
Y/n pressed her lips together, trying to keep a straight face, but failing miserably. âFine,â she relented, laughing softly. âMaybe Iâm a little obsessed.â
âThat's what I thought.â He leaned down to kiss her, long and slow, until her laughter melted into a contented sigh. âNow say good morning back to me.â He demanded, with a pout.
âGood morning,â she replied begrudgingly, though the warmth in her tone betraying her.
Harry settled back against the pillows, pulling her closer until her head was tucked beneath his chin. His arms wrapping around her body securely, like he was afraid that if he didn't, she would just disappear.
âYou were staring at me, werenât you?â She teased.
âGuilty,â Harry admitted. âI couldnât help it. Youâre so cute when youâre asleep. You snore, by the way.â
âI do not!â She gasped, smacking his chest.
âYou totally do,â he teased, kissing the top of her head. âBut itâs adorable, so donât worry about it.â
Y/n let out a groan, burying her face against his chest. âI canât believe I married you.â
Harry laughed, the sound low and warm. âOh, you canât believe it? I was the one punching above my weight, sweetheart. So youâre stuck with me now.â
She tilted her head to look up at him, her eyes soft and full of affection. âYeah, I guess I am.â
For a while, they just laid there, limbs tangled together, the outside world completely forgotten.
âSo, whatâs the plan for today?â She asked, her fingers lightly tracing the tattoos on his chest.
âThis,â He said without hesitation. âAll day. Just you, me, this bed, and maybe some pancakes later if youâre nice to me.â
âOnly if youâre making them,â She teased.
âDeal.â He pressed a kiss to her forehead. âI missed this so much. Missed you. Missed waking up next to you.â
âI missed you too,â She said, her voice soft as she leaned in, pressing a kiss to the corner of his mouth, her lips lingering, trying to mentally memorize this moment.
âI hated waking up without you,â Y/n admitted, her voice barely above a whisper.Â
Harry's hand found hers, their fingers intertwining effortlessly. âI know baby. I hated it too. But Iâm here now. Right where I belong.â
For a moment, neither of them spoke, the silence being filled with the rhythmic sound of their breathing and the occasional distant chirp of the birds outside. The golden morning light painted soft shadows across their faces, as if the universe itself was wrapping them in its warm embrace.
Y/n broke the silence, a playful grin on her face. âAlright, husband, if this is the plan, you better bring your A-game in the kitchen. Seven months away doesnât excuse bad cooking.â
Harry chuckled, his laughter rumbling against her cheek. âDonât worry, Iâm bringing nothing but five-star, gourmet-level cooking. But fair warning: youâre gonna be stuck doing the dishes.â
âBold of you to assume I wonât just bribe you into doing them,â she countered, lifting her head to meet his gaze.
âAnd how exactly do you plan to do that?â he asked, playfully wiggling his eyebrows.
She grinned, leaning in close, her lips brushing against his ear. âYou know how persuasive I can be.â
Harry let out groan, rolling them both over so that she was pinned beneath him, causing her to laugh as he peppered her face with kisses. âYouâre dangerous, you know that?â
âModerately fond of me now?â She teased breathlessly, her laughter bubbling up as he grinned down at her.
âCompletely obsessed,â he corrected, his lips finding hers in a slow, tender kiss.

million dollar man | logan howlett
pairing: old man!logan x afab!reader
AN: my flo app says that today is the peak of my ovulation so umm..! explains why im writing this. anyways, here's a lil drabble about cryinâ out logan's name, begginâ for your old man to fill you up <3 (iâll prolly make more self indulgent fics like this in the future lol)
content/tags: NSFW, minors DNI (18+ only), rough sex, dacryphilia, daddy kink, porn without plot, slapping, mean!logan, dirty talk, pet names.
"so fuckin' tight for me," logan groans as his hands keep you in place, ass up, bent over, and folded in half over the dinner table. the sound of skin slapping against skin fills the kitchen as he rams into you relentlessly.
he was fucking you senselessâballs deep into your cunt, a steady rhythm of greedily sucking him in, and your gummy walls reluctantly slipping him out. you threw your hips back in tandem with his thrusts, making the plush of your ass bounce against him.
"such a needy girl for your old man, huh?" he teases, rubbing your ass with the palm of his calloused hand. his touch lingered for a second, before you hear a loud slap echo throughout the room.
you wince out as the stinging pain starts to fester. "fuck!" you whine as he spanks you again, subconsciously gripping his dick tighter as his hand makes contact with your ass.
"dirty fuckin' whore," logan hisses, planting yet another slap against your ass. "need your daddy to fuck you rough tonight, huh?". you barely manage to choke out a yes as your body quivers beneath him.
he spots the way your fingernails dug into the wood of the kitchen table as he continues the assault on your ass and pauses his thrusts. letting out a small chuckle, he tugs at your wrists, making it so that your hands are behind your back.
"you said you're a big girl, right darlin'?" he taunts, unsheathing himself from your cunt, a white ring of your slick left around his girth. you whine at the loss of his cock, your cunt now twitching around nothing.
"now take my dick like one."

A Bad Day- Harry Styles x reader
Synopsis: y/n has a horrible day and she can't wait to come home to the comfort of her boyfriend, who can make anything better.
A/N:-Sorry for not posting anything for so long guys, college has been hectic. In fact, this blurb is based on my own bad day, except there wasn't a Harry to help me feel better. Hope everyone's doing okay and sending lots of love to you all.
Word count: 1,661
Warnings: Harry being sweet! Fluff!
__________________________________________
You were hanging on by a very, fine, thread. A thread you knew could break anytime, with how much youâd been through today. You really didnât believe that there would be days where everything you did would go wrong, or get messed up. A bad day as people called it.Â
You liked to take on the world with a positive headset, and it usually helped you think with a clear mind so you could find solutions to the problems. But today, no matter how positive you tried to be, horrible things just kept piling on, burying you under the weight of it. You were grateful that the day was finally over, and you were back home.Â
Home, where you knew you wouldnât be judged or frowned upon. Home, where you knew you had one person who would always have your back.
Harry probably didnât hear you come in. You could hear him humming a tune while he worked around in the kitchen. You walk to the counter to place your bag, and see your boyfriend stirring a sauce, wearing your favorite red and white apron that has too many stains on it from your numerous cooking adventures.Â
He turns his head to look at you as he hears your footsteps, and smiles, emerald eyes immediately washing over your face as he tries to figure out how you were holding up. He knew about one of the reasons for your bad day today, which was your instagram account getting hacked. You donât even use the app that often, just to maintain contacts with everyone, and you were surprised when your friend texted you in the morning asking you to check if your account has been hacked. Your private account had been made public, messages had been sent to all your followers and they even posted things on your story.Â
You were a little too panicked in the morning and the hackers had even changed the phone number of your account, so there wasnât much you could do. When you were done panicking, you did what you could do and removed all your followers and deleted all your personal information from it before it got too late.Â
âHey.â, you say to him, going behind him and wrapping your arms around his waist, resting your head on his back, sighing.
âHi sweetheart, Iâm making a new pasta recipe!â, Harry says, placing his free hand not holding the spatula over yours and squeezing.Â
âSmells good.â, you mumble into his shirt, inhaling his comforting scent. You appreciated that he was making food for you but you werenât hungry.Â
âStill worried, baby?â
You release another sigh, closing your eyes. âI-Itâs not just that. Things just kept going bad after that..â
âOh, darling.â, Harry coos, switching off the flame and taking your arms, gently lifting them from his waist so he could turn around and give you his undivided attention. Harry tugs you closer, one hand cupping your cheek. âItâs okay, youâre here now..â
You willed so hard for the tears not to form, but they did. âH-Harry..âÂ
âCome here, my love.â, Harry moved his hand to the back of your head and pushed your head into his chest, the other arm wrapping around you to hold you close to him.Â
âT-There was a surprise oral test, a-and I knew everything but I-I got anxious and d-didnât do so well. I-I couldnât focus, Haz. And t-then-â
âTake a breath for me, sweetheart.â, Harry interrupts you gently as you stutter, rubbing his hand over your back in gentle circles.Â
âA-And then during our practicals, a girl b-borrowed my pipette and i-it broke, s-so I couldnât do the experiment. T-Thatâs gonna come for the finals, i-it was an important experiment.â You sob into his shirt, releasing all that had been building up and Harry lets you, simply listening and just being there.Â
âIâm so sorry you had such a rough day, baby.â, Harry murmurs into your hair. âBut you know what? You are so smart. You are where you are because of your hard work and skills, so not doing well on one test isnât going to define your knowledge. Donât be too hard on yourself, love, with the kind of morning you had, no one would have been able to focus!â
Harry runs his fingers through your hair, smoothing out some of the knots. âYou can go ask the professor if you can do the experiment again when you have free time right? And theyâll give you revision before the finals, so donât worry.â
You nod, looking up at him through your tear filled eyes. âI-Iâm still not able to delete my account, instagram help is of no use.â
âWeâll figure it out, darling. On the bright side, at least the hackers didnât get anything personal.â Harry wipes his thumbs under your eyes, stroking away the tears. âBreaks my heart to see you so upset.â
âI-Iâm sorry, I wasnât planning on sobbing into you as soon as I walked in.â
âYou were planning on doing it maybe after a shower and dinner?â, Harry smirks, and you nudge his ribs, weakly laughing. Harry chuckles, pressing a kiss to your temple. âItâs alright, love. Iâm glad you feel safe enough to let out your emotions with me. Sometimes you really need a good cry!â
âThatâs true.â, you agree, sniffling.
âLet me give my girl a kiss now.â, Harry says, gently taking your chin so he could press your lips to yours. You close your eyes, enjoying the sweet, comforting kiss. Harry knows just how to kiss you depending on the moment.
âDonât let anything get to you, okay?â, he whispers when he pulls away. âTomorrow will be a better day.â
You finally give him a small smile, nodding. âI love you.â
âI love you too. Why donât you go take a hot shower now, love? Iâll have dinner ready by that time.â
âUm, can you join too? Iâll help you cook later?â You really didnât want to be alone.Â
Harry understands, and he nods, turning around to find a lid for the pan. He takes off his apron as well. âCome on, darling.â He places a hand on the small of your back, leading you to the bedroom.
Harry strips, turns on the water and adjusts the water as you strip down, and holds out his hand for yours when youâre done. You sigh as the warm water hits your sore muscles, it was just the right temperature too. Harry brings you into a hug again, and you accept it gratefully, closing your eyes and just standing there for some time.Â
After a few minutes, Harry reaches to turn the water off and takes some shower gel into the loofah before starting to run it over your arms and shoulders. âSo beautiful.â, he praises, pressing a kiss to the back of your hand and you canât help but smile. âSo are you.â
âIâm beautiful!?â, he sends his voice up by a few octaves, making you giggle. âYeah!â
After he finished washing your body, he envelops you in a towel and helps you dry off. You both get dressed, and Harry picks you up, your legs tucking around his hips for support. âDid you eat today, love?â
âUm, I had a banana for lunch..â
âKnew it. You always skip food when youâre upset.â, he says, setting you down on the kitchen slab. âNot to worry though, youâre going to bed with a full tummy.â
âWhat can I do to help?â, you ask, watching him re-wear his apron.
âWhy donât you find something for us to watch?â
âThatâs not helping.â
âI just have to toss the pasta in the sauce, baby, I got it. Go, pick whatever you feel like watching.â
By the time you found a show, Harry had plated the food and was bringing it to you. He settled on the couch next to you. You took the first bite and thatâs when you realized just how hungry you were. You followed it up with another, and blushed when Harry looked at you with a grin.Â
âThis is great, babe. Thank you.â, you tell him.
âYouâre welcome, love. Thereâs enough for us to take seconds, so eat up!â You watched your show while eating, chatting up with Harry about it. Then you continued to cuddle on the couch. Harry rubbed your arm with one hand while the other was holding your phone. He wanted to try something one of his friendâs told him about when his account was hacked as well.
âThere, think I got it to deactivate.â, he says.
âReally?â You take a look as well, and see the message that says that it should get deactivated soon. You sigh in relief and hug around his neck, burying your face into the crook of his neck. âWhat would I do without you?â
âYouâd wither and die.â, he jokes, making you gasp and he laughs, stroking back strands of your hair from your forehead when you look up at him. âAre you feeling better now?â
âA little.â, you nod.
âOnly a little?â, he asks, kissing your nose and you try to trap in the smile thatâs fighting to break through. âMhmm.â, you hum.
âWell, Iâve got to take care of that.â, he says before holding your face in both of his hands and he leans closer so he can press little feather kisses all over your face. You start giggling, âHarry!â
Bad days and difficult times are part of life. Youâre always going to have them. What youâll always remember is that you have someone in your life that will help you through it. No matter how difficult of a time you are having, Harry will never let you deal with it alone.Â
âThereâs that smile.â, Harry says in success, grinning as he rubs his nose with yours. âI love you so much, y/n.â
âI love you too, H.âÂ
And you love that you get to come home to him.

Can you do a blurb of H cuddling Y/N after being away or busy for a while?? Thanks!!
Yes I can â¤ď¸ hereâs a little something!
Check out our Patreon!!
â-
"Mmm... this is nice." Harry whispered against her lips, pulling her closer under the blanket. His fingers gently traced patterns on her arm as they shared soft, lingering kisses. The movie played softly in the background, but his focus was entirely on her. This was what always happened and they should have known they wouldnât last 10 minutes without being distracted but perhaps that was the point.
Between kisses, he mumbled against her lips. "Yâknow, I've missed moments like this. Just being here with you..." Work had been kicking his ass as the holidays approached just like it did every year, but it didnât mean he liked it.
âI miss you too.â She sighed, fiddling with his necklace. âBut I know itâs a busier season for you. Itâs almost over.â Heâd been working day in and out. It was their first chance to have an actual slow date night, and it seemed that heâd missed her more than she had thought. Clingy Harry was one of her favorites.
"It really is," Harry said softly, his thumb gently brushing over her cheek. "But I promise, once this season is over, mâall yours. No more late nights or extremely early mornings. Just you and me, doing nothing but existing together." He leaned in, pressing a gentle kiss to her forehead. "You deserve that peace, and mâgonna make sure you have it."
She did particularly miss waking up to him curled around her like her own personal blanket. There was truly nothing like getting to be so intimately close with the man she utterly adored, but it was hard to do that lately. Harry had always been a hard worker, passionate in everything he did- thankfully, that included being a lover, too. âYou are doing just fine, H. I know you have to do your work.â Her fingers traced over the bridge of his nose, giving him a light smile. Her husband truly was the most beautiful man she had ever seen. âMâhonestly just glad that you got to come home early tonight.â
Sighing softly at her touch, he let his eyes flutter shut momentarily as he reveled in the delicate brush of her fingertips. "I swear, the next few months are just gonna be us." The arm around her waist pulled her closer, planting a kiss on her cheek. It really was hard to keep his mouth off of her. "Me, waking up wrapped around you every morning..." Planting another kiss to her nose, he laughed under her breath as he watched it scrunch a bit. "...falling asleep with your head on my chest every night...just need those moments back. Just you and me. Know mâselfish, but thatâs the truth."
Harry had always been selfish about her attention. That was nothing new, but not getting to indulge as often as he liked was the problem. "And I swear, no more ridiculous late-night calls," he promised, his hand splaying over her waist. "I really am sorry, baby.â the soft frown on his face was indicative of that. Disappointing her was his least favorite thing. âNo more 'I'll be home in an hour' turns into 'It's 3am and I'm still not home'. No more... got tâspend time with you. Canât work properly if mâmiserable because my girl is at home alone in my bedâŚ" He trailed off, his thumb brushing over her swollen bottom lip. There had been a lot of things that had gotten out of hand and he knew he had been extremely lucky that she was so understanding about it. âThink Mâgonna dedicate an entire week to being between your thighs.â
Her eyes widened slightly at his bold statement, a soft blush creeping onto her cheeks. Biting her lower lip as his touch moved to her chin, she to suppress a small smile that tugged at the corners of her mouth. "Harry," she scolded lightly. âYou⌠are something else.â Her husband had no problem showing her just how much she meant to her. She knew he had obviously had some withdrawals from their intimacy but hearing it out so boldly made her slightly flustered. One of his favorite things was figuring out ways to make her squirm, so she shouldnât have been that shocked- but thatâs what he liked about it.
"Sâit too much?" He teased, his thumb brushing over her heated cheek. "Let me rephrase, then, my beautiful girl." He leaned in closer, his voice dropping lower. "How about I dedicate an entire week to staying in our bed, only getting up for food and water, showering together and spending the rest of the time worshipping you tâshow you just how much I miss you every second Iâm gone?" He grinned mischievously. âThat sound any better?â

DAD HARRY BLURB
someone requested them finding out the gender of baby #3 :) please reblog & give feedback!
ââ
Harry pulls into the parking lot of the bakery he used to work at irregularly, the faded burgundy bricks a familiar sight. It hasn't been revamped much from when he was in his mid-twenties and struggling to earn a livable wage by juggling pastry-making, bartending, and training to be a chef. While he's not necessarily fond of those stressful workplace memories, the one that stands out the most is when he saw your pretty face again in the bakery. It was fate at its finest, and the rest is cherished history. He'll always be grateful for this place.
Over five years later, he is back with exhilaration thrumming in his chest. He's older now, his life wildly different than before he met youânow, he has a steadfast romance that keeps getting better, two precious daughters, and another baby on the way, all in a house where the ocean breeze kisses his skin every morning. He never envisioned being lucky enough to live out his dream so profoundly.
Harry steps out of the car, enjoying the subdued sunshine. He spins his key ring around his pointer finger, a smile already lifting his lips as he shoulders the front door open. The scent of baked bread and hints of vanilla greets him, along with the bakery's owner, Doreen, who gives him a cordial wave. She's a short woman in her sixties who has been running the place since before Harry was born. The long grey braid tapering down her back swings back and forth as she wipes the storefront windows with a rag. An apron is tied around her waist, the well-worn fabric dusted with flour and smears of blue frosting. She hasn't changed one bit.
"Hello, dear," Doreen says, briefly pausing her cleaning to kiss his cheek. Even on her tiptoes, Harry has to bend down to close the gap. "I know something you don't!"
He inhales deeply, that warm thrum returning. "You sure do."
She grins mischievously. "It's in the fridge, top left shelf. Help yourself."
Harry walks toward the two-section glass fridge behind the counter. A week ago, you did a blood test that could detect the baby's gender earlier than an ultrasound. At your request to keep it a secret for now, the obstetrician wrote the results down and sealed it in an envelope, which Harry then brought to the bakery and ordered a two-tier vanilla cake with either pink or blue frosting inside. Only the baker would know until it was sliced into by you and him. You both wanted a different type of reveal this time around. Last pregnancy, it was kept a surprise until birth. You're both too excited to wait this time.
"Thank you again for doing this," Harry says, taking the white bakery box with a yellow sticky note that has Styles Family scribbled on it. "If you ever need extra help around here, don't hesitate to give me a call."
"Oh, don't worry about me." Doreen places her hands on her hips, winking at him. "I'm sure you have your hands full at home."
He laughs softly. "I do, but they're wonderful little helpers. I could always bring them in, even if it's just to taste test."
"How old are they now?"
"Four and one. Our oldest is in her first year of preschool."
She shakes her head in disbelief. "Goodness, how time flies. Plus a bun in the oven?"
"She's eleven weeks," he replies, smiling proudly.
"How is she feeling?"
Harry thinks back to when he left this morning, leaving you lying in bed sandwiched by the kids still in their pajamas. "Pretty fatigued, but she knows what to expect by now. She's doing everything she can to stay motivated."
"Well, I was happy to hear the news and so honored to be one of the first ones to know such a special secret," Doreen says, pinching his earlobe affectionately. "I baked my best cake for you. Oh, that reminds me!" She scurries over to a nearby table to retrieve a wrapped plate with an assortment of desserts, no doubt baked by her. "These are for you and your girls."
Harry's heart swells, and he pecks her cheek with gratitude. "We appreciate it so much. And I'm serious: I'll put my old apron back on if you need me to. I still know how to make a mean batch of macarons."
She shoos him away with her cleaning rag. "Go on, you silly boy. Be with your family."
He beams on his way out of the bakery, wanting nothing more.
ââ
Harry arrives back home in the late morning, feeling grateful that it's the weekend. The house is quiet, and he'd bet money that his girls are in the same position he left them an hour ago. Arguably, that's what Sundays are forâcuddles under warm sheets and no obligation to be anywhere else.
The front door snicks shut, and he walks the short distance to the kitchen to set the cake box on the island. His fingers itch to open it and sink a knife into the layer of frosting, but he refrains. The time will come.
Instead, he heads to the bedroom, keeping his footsteps light. Sure enough, you're curled up with two little girls tucked into the outline of your body. Harry commits the view to memory before sitting on the edge of the mattress. You stir awake from a light sleep, your eyes opening and finding him. The first-trimester fatigue is obvious, and it's as endearing as it was the first time.
"Morning, lazybones," he says softly.
You yawn, stretching your arms, and the fierce urge to hold you close and never leave this bed rushes through him. "Hi. Did you get the cake?"
"I did." He strokes the bridge of your nose with his knuckle, sensing your lethargy. "Feeling okay?"
"So-so. I was a little queasy earlier."
"Did you eat yet?" he asks, and you shake your head in response. "Want me to make something?"
"I don't have much of an appetite, but I'm sure the girls would love a big breakfast," you say. Harry smiles, taking a moment to admire their innocent faces still deep in sleep. He hopes they're having pleasant dreams.
"Okay. I'll be in the kitchen."
"Wait for me, please." You carefully sit up with a dazed and adorable look in your eyes.
Harry sighs fondly and says, "You need to listen to your body. Don't resist rest."
Pouting, you shed the blanket and swing your legs over the bed, ignoring his sensible advice. "But my body's telling me that it misses you."
"Sweetheart..." He cuts himself off, realizing he has no way to refute that. He knows wholeheartedly because he feels it too. Working full-time and coming home to parent with you leaves little room for quality time together. Consequently, there was never time to squeeze a babymoon in the past four years. He'll have to ponder that idea more in-depth, especially now that your pregnancy is swiftly heading to the halfway mark. Probably smart to plan a trip during that sweet spot, when you're not too physically uncomfortable. He wants to have fun with you, away from the kids. Explore an exotic place and luxuriate in romance with no one around.
"Harry?" you say, pulling him out of his titillating trance. He was just beginning to envisage you naked on a canopy bed in Fiji, the evening sun casting over your dips and curves. Lying there all majestically, waiting for him to feast on you. Paradise personified.
"Sorry, just musing." He clears his throat and thinks of innocent things, like buttermilk pancakes and hash browns.
"Uh-oh," you reply playfully before standing up and leaving him with a tempting view of your bare legs. As you freshen up in the bathroom, Harry leans over his daughters and kisses their heads. They both stir minimally, their disheveled curls rustling against the pillows. He wonders if his genes will ever have mercy in that department when the next baby arrives.
Eventually, you follow Harry into the kitchen, and there's a familiar thrill in having a brief window of alone time before the kids require attention. He smoothly pulls you into his embrace and asks, "How's our baby?"
You look down at your stomach and lift the silk camisole covering it. "Finally making an appearance, I think."
Pulling back slightly, Harry assesses the tiny protrusionâit's much tinier than the last two were around the same eleven-week mark. "Oh, hello there," he murmurs with a winsome smile. The proof of you carrying a child is nearly unnoticeable, at least in a physical sense, but the smallness keeps it a secret from any outsiders. Inside this home, it's his to savor.
You laugh, silently marveling over it with him, then glance at the cake over his shoulder. "We could have cake for breakfast."
Harry pulls you close again and waddles your conjoined bodies forward until your back meets the island. "That depends on if you want to find out now or later. It's up to you."
Looping your arms around his neck, you contemplate for a few seconds before saying, "Let's wait until later tonightâat least until I'm feeling better."
"Absolutely. Maybe we can head down to the beach at sunset with the girls. Have a mini celebration."
You nod. "I'd like that."
"Done deal." The thin strap of your silk camisole slips down your shoulder, and Harry groans when the curve of your breast peeks out. He cups it in his palm, and your body reacts by pressing into him even further. "So, what's your final prediction?" he asks, kissing the tender flesh there and readjusting the strap. Focus, he tells himself. The girls need breakfast.
You make a show of thinking long and hard. "Unforeseen quadruplets? I'd be a medical mystery."
Harry narrows his eyes, suppressing a grin. "Hysterical." He widens his stance until he's the same height as you. "C'mon, give it to me."
"Final prediction is... girl," you say assuredly. That word tugs at his heartstrings, the ones belonging to the instinctive protectiveness he has toward his daughters.
"I'm sticking with boy," he says for the sake of a friendly husband-wife competition.
You quirk your brow and slowly back out of his embrace. "I can't believe you're not trusting my womanly intuition."
"I've guessed correctly the last two times," he reminds you. "Don't underestimate my mojo."
"All right. Best of luck, baby."
ââ
Harry shivers in an overdramatic fashion while holding his youngest daughter, and she giggles, thoroughly entertained. He always enjoys the walk down to the private beach, where the expansive view never ceases to amaze him. At sunset, it's even more phenomenal. The wind carries a coolness to it, and the sky transpires into heavenly hues of lavender, teal, and marigold. No matter the weather, he makes an effort to watch it fade into the night alongside his family.
Tonight is extra special, and as he glances back at you trailing behind with the cake box and two empty champagne glasses in one hand and your eldest's small hand in the other, his excitement intensifies. He was patient all afternoon, even crawling back in bed with you and the girls to bask in a catnap under the warm sheets. Afterward, the laziness continued as you all watched a movie together on the couch and ate takeout. Now it's time for dessert.
Near the shoreline, Harry sets down his youngest and removes the quilted blanket from around his shoulders. He shakes it out and watches her toddle on the sand. She just started walking on her own last month, and he can never be too cautious with her curious nature. There's nothing more bloodcurdling than a child wandering off without a sound.
The girls go off to play with their dolls near the sandcastle they built near the hammock. It's far enough from the waves for them to be semi-unsupervised.
Harry lays the blanket down and sits. You join him, passing over the glasses. He brought a bottle of grape juice as a substitute for wine.
After pouring juice into each glass, Harry hands one over to you and lifts his in the air. "Cheers to growing our beautiful family. Cheers to being happy, healthy, and perpetually sleep-deprived. We make an amazing team, and... I just love you. Inexplicably so." He clinks his glass with yours and takes a hearty sip, never taking his eyes off you.
"Cheers," you say, letting the tart liquid travel down your throat.
Harry rubs his palms together and says, "Ready?"
You give him a smile only he knows the meaning of. "Let's have some cake."
He slides the box over and fingers open the seal. When he lifts the top, you shuffle forward and melt into his side, staying there as he stares at the coating. It's only plain white buttercream frosting with swirly pink and blue dollops caressing the circular edge, but the part that makes him teary-eyed is the cursive icing that reads Baby Styles. Although it's his third and most likely last child, the feeling never gets old. Every newborn experience challenges him in an entirely new way. It's unexpected, enlightening, and emotionally rewarding. And to do it by your side is the greatest accomplishment he'll ever know.
Wiping the corners of his eyes, Harry picks up the knife. You place your hand over his grip on the handle and kiss his bicep. "No peeking," you say, closing your eyes.
Harry does the same and rests his forehead against yours. Slowly, he maneuvers the knife to blindly cut a triangular slice. His heart pounds in anticipation. The bet he made with you doesn't matter anymore. Either outcome, he'll be ecstatic.
"You look first," he whispers, his lips brushing yours with each syllable.
"No, you do it," you whisper back.
"You know, we never discussed what the prize is for whoever guessed correctly," he says, shifting the knife so the slice breaks free.
"I know what I want."
"Yeah?" he murmurs, nudging his nose with yours. "Tell me.â
"I want to go on vacation somewhere far away, just me and you."
"Remember what happened last vacation?" His eyes are still closed, and vivid memories play behind his lids.
"Yes, I do,â you say. âYou got me pregnant, but that was only because there was something in the Italian air."
He laughs and captures your lips in a quick kiss. "Is that the only reason? I seem to recall youâ"
"Daddy, what flavor is the pink stuff?"
Harry's eyes shoot open, and for a split second, he sees that yours are still shut as his head whips toward his eldest daughter skipping over with her favorite doll in tow. His youngest follows her, picking up handfuls of sand along the way.
Brows furrowed, he looks at you again to find you staring at the cake with a dumbstruck expression. He honestly forgot it was there, too caught up in the intimate moment he was sharing with you, where the darkness enhanced the warm sensations of his skin touching yours, the grape scent of your breath, and the way your sensual words sent shivers down his spine.
All that floats away when he sees creamy pink frosting in the middle of the sponge cake. It's a delicate shade of pink similar to the newborn hospital hat they put on his firstborn daughter. Similar to the sunrise the day his second daughter decided to come into the world.
Pink. Another baby girl.
Making a spontaneous choice, Harry pulls his sweater off and sprints full speed toward the ocean, shouting with glee. He hears your shocked guffaw as he tumbles forward into the shallow water. The coldness is a shock to his system, but it doesn't compare to the fact that you're having a girl. He hoped for it deep in his heart. He dreamt it.
You walk over to him, eyes glassy and holding a large forkful of cake. "I was right!"
Harry heaves big breaths, adrenaline rushing through his blood vessels. His sweatpants are soaked, but it's the last thing on his mind. He clumsily reaches you and places his palms on your stomach, kissing it repeatedly. "I love you, I love you, I love you," he says, overwhelmed with emotion. He looks up, his next words intended for you. "You made our dreams come true, baby. And I don't know how to repay you, but Iâll try. I swear it.â
"You've already repaid me, Harry, by being the most devoted and dependable father to our girls."
He smiles, his cheeks hurting. "Three girls now. Holy shit.â
You collapse in his arms, crying and laughing with happiness. He catches you and gently brings you down to the sand. The wind whips around both your bodies, not able to penetrate the heat of this unforgettable moment.
Amidst bites of cake and promises of a couple's vacation to wherever your heart desires, a shout of "It's strawberry-flavored!" carries over, nestling deep in Harryâs heart.
Life couldn't be sweeter.

hii i love reading yor fics sososo much T_T<333
I'd like to request a fic where Logan dreams that he hurts the reader, almost killing them. The reader notices that he's having a nightmare and wakes him up, he's disoriented and in panic, but when he realized what just happened he is incredibly relieved to see that reader is ok and alive. Maybe he even breaks down and cries, which really shocks the reader cuz they arent used to seeing Logan like this 𼺠Then the reader comforts him and takes care of him until he's back asleep.
As It Should Be
Wolverine X Reader
Content: Comfort, crying, poor Logan cannot catch a break, but you're there to dig him out of his sadness hole, he loves you a lot, lots of fluff while comforting him
Word Count: 1.39k
Warnings: Some graphic violence during the nightmare segment
a/n: Thank you for the kind words! This one honestly got a little graphic in terms of gore, but nothing too bad, so hopefully thatâs ok! This was fun to write, enjoy!
No. What had he done?Â
Logan stood in a pile of debris and rubble, his white tank top and jeans now caked in blood that wasnât his. Claws refusing to retract, Logan felt utterly hopeless against his own body. His actions werenât his own as he trudged towards the only person left alive; you. You were scared, that much was clear by your facial expression and hasty movements to crawl backward away from the mutant.Â
âLogan⌠this isnât you, please.â You plead, eyes darting around the scene to find help, anyone that is still alive or conscious. All you could take in was the decimated mansion and the mauled corpses of your loved ones. What had taken over Logan? Why did he destroy the very things he risked his life for countless times?Â
As Logan looked into your frightened eyes his heart clenched, knowing what was coming next. He just wishes he could stop it. Watching himself tear through his other family hurt like hell, but having to watch you die he didnât think he could bear it. You were his entire world, the only thing that could ground him when he fell down the pits of self-destruction. He would forever kill himself before harming you. But this version of himself had other plans.Â
He trudged over, claws glistening in the light of fire around them. âNo, no no noâŚâ You chant, still trying to escape the man but your legs are rendered useless due to your paralyzing fear. With one swift movement, Logan begins to tear through flesh and muscle, watching in horror as his hands mutilate his love against his will. You could do nothing but lay there, screaming in pain, your mutant ability keeping you alive for longer than you wanted to be. Logan wished he was the one being gutted. In a way, he was. Anyone else, anyone but you deserved his wrath.Â
Tears clung tightly to his eyes as his hand retracted from your body, lining up for the final shot to the head. As the blade commences its soar towards your skull, Logan jolts up from a lying position and hastily takes in his surroundings. It was dark, he was under a blanket of sorts, and oh, he was in your bedroom. Had it only been a nightmare? No, it was far too cruel and realistic to have been. Even Loganâs mind wasnât so callous to make him live through such a horror. So then, it must have been real? Logan begins to hyperventilate, raising his hands to eye level. His claws were away, and his rough skin was clean of blood. But, as he blinked, grotesque images flashed through his mind. Sick crimson blood, your blood, begins to stain his hands, drying in a disgusting reddish-brown. He immediately jumped out of bed, went into the ensuite bathroom, and scrubbed his hands raw.Â
âNo, no no no.â He chanted under his breath as he tried to scrape off the non-existent material. The cold water was not enough to ground him back to reality, Logan eventually gave up and put him back to the skin, sliding down towards the floor to cradle his head in his hands. Thanks to the sound of the water running in the bathroom and Loganâs hard footsteps, you eventually stir awake. At first, nothing seemed wrong, maybe he just had to use the bathroom. But after the sound of continuous water for five minutes you grew increasingly concerned. Deciding to confront the man you carefully walk up to the bathroom door and gently knock three times, not to startle him during whatever heâs doing.Â
âLo?â It was only one syllable, but your sweet voice saying his nickname out loud was enough to send Logan scrambling. The door eagerly burst open, and when it did the sight you were met with shocked your heart. There was Logan on the ground, clearly disheveled, eyes bloodshot and teary. âOh baby, what happened?â You coo, going to take a step forward but immediately retreating seeing Logan flinch.Â
âYouâre- youâre real, right?â Logan tentatively asks, sounding scared. Of course, you were real, why wouldnât you be?âÂ
âYes, love.â You stay put in your place. You didnât want to upset him further.
âNo⌠I ripped you apart. You died by my hands.â You resist the urge to outwardly exclaim how ridiculous he sounded before realizing he more than likely had a nightmare. Logan was prone to bad dreams, but none ever shook him quite as much as this. The only good thing that came out of the consistent night terrors was that you now knew how to soothe him in times like these.Â
âIâm right here my love. Iâm not hurt. See? Iâm perfectly okay.â Your voice stays calm and soothing, not wanting to startle him further. âTouch my hand. Feel my skin. I am right here.â Usually, the sensation of touch grounded him from this distressed state, but this time he seemed hesitant to even look in your direction.Â
âI canât. I might hurt you again.â Logan looked so small and it broke you. He was huddled into himself, still looking at you untrusting. The thought of himself harming you any further plagued his mind, twisting his stomach and making him want to vomit. You were his world, his everything. He curses his body for the immortality that was bestowed upon him because if anything happens to you he wants to follow right behind.Â
Realizing you may seem intimidating due to the fact youâre standing tall over his curled-up body you lower yourself and sit criss-cross applesauce across from him. Putting your hand out in between your two bodies you silently sit there, waiting for Logan to take this at his own pace. After a few minutes, Logan seems calm enough to touch your hand. Fingertips only brush at first, then a loose handhold, then a firm grasp on each other. Before either of you knew it you were fully embracing, Logan nuzzling his head into your neck. He needed to take you in every sense, to prove this was real. His nose took in your intoxicating perfume, his hands gripped your curves, his ears heard your soft breaths release from your mouth, and when he pulled back his eyes took in the sight of you. You were as stunning as always even with your messy hair and tired eyes. You were real, you were here, and you were his.Â
Seeing as your boyfriend has calmed down you decided to relocate to a more comfortable area. âLetâs get off this gross floor, okay love? Letâs go to bed.â You whisper, carefully tugging him along to your shared bed. Once you two got settled down you were instantly back in his strong arms, protecting you from the rest of the world. You thought all was said and done for the night until Logan spoke up.Â
âYou were so scared. I made you scared.â He hated seeing you that way. It hurt him. What hurt worse was that he was the cause of it. He now understands it wasnât real, but your expression was so gut-wrenching he couldnât shake it off.Â
âLogan I know you would never hurt me on purpose.â You reassured him. âExcept maybe when you squeeze me to death with your bear hugs.â Logan chuckled a little bit, your humor always lightens the mood. You lay in silence for a bit, almost dozing off until you hear a voice next to you.Â
âThank you for dealing with me.â You smile, leaning over and kissing the man gingerly on the cheek.Â
âItâs what I signed up for my love. Besides, you could never be a bother to me.â He smiles back, a rare sight to anyone but yourself. âI love you, Logan.â
âI love you too.â With that resignation you two cuddle, arms and legs entangled with one anotherâs. Eventually, Logan is lulled back to sleep while listening to the steady beat of your heart. Instead of another nightmare, he is met with a blissful dream of the two of you living together on a mountain, away from all the violence and harm the world holds. Just as it should be.Â

REDAMANCY. 18+
pairing. logan howlett x fem!reader word count. 3915 summary. you often worry you can never keep up with your husband's continuous acts of love and care, your attempts always seeming to come up short. logan catches on and shows you that thereâs nothing for you to prove. warnings. 18+ only!! reader has a moment of inadequacy at the beginning, logan being attentive<3 quick description of thigh riding but it's not proper, titty kissing, fingering, cum eating? (licks his fingers) pinv sex. angst start, fluff middle, smut ending. mdni a/n. #needthat
Feelings of inadequacy seem to follow you like a stray dog. The constant, repetitive thought that what you do or say or think or feel may never be enough. But it was silly really, to be afraid of the contents of your own mind, especially when you had no reason to feel that way.
You thought these feelings were controlled, contained even. But as you anxiously twist your wedding ring upon your left finger, you canât help but slip into that prior mindset you believed to be packed away. You beside the stove, mindlessly watching the simmering pot of tonight's dinner, staring at the vegetables bubble around in the sauce.Â
It was Loganâs favourite, and it was a token of your appreciation for yet another grand gesture of his love towards you â the thanks a slither of what he does for you on the daily. But as you watch over the chicken pie filling in the saucepan, you canât help but notice something missing, something thatâs supposed to be there but isnât.Â
And when you blink from your fixed, hazed stare, you see exactly what you need on the countertop. The chopped up pieces of bacon on the board âhis favourite partâ sitting there like itâs mocking you, telling you that youâre terrible for forgetting it. And itâs not like you can add it now, it would be horrible and ruin it completely.Â
All you can do now is move on, move past it. Though now it feels like you can do anything but. The bacon a reminder of your apparent failures, inadequacies. It was silly to be caught up on missing meat, but it wasnât just about that â it was like it was even more proof that you were out of your depth with Logan. That forgetting the bacon somehow made you a horrible, horrible person.
You stare at the board for a moment, trying so desperately hard not to let it get to you and then you see Logan walk past the window â a couple fresh chopped logs of wood under one arm, an axe and a bunch of wildflowers in the hand of his other. And somehow the sight made you feel nothing short of awful. His thought and care once again overshadowing your attempts.
You quickly wipe under your eyes, an act of precaution to make sure nothing had seeped from you while you beat yourself up over something so tiny. You follow the sound of the front door opening, the scuffling of his boots following shortly after as he places down the pieces of timber.Â
âSmells fuckinâ good,â he compliments, the warm, homely smell hitting at his nose immediately.Â
He walks over to you, right, flower-held hand tucked from your view as he moves to stand behind, free arm reaching for your waist the second heâs close enough.Â
âI gotâya somethinâ,â he whispers behind you, punctuating his sentence with a kiss under your ear â his neck peering round and over your shoulder.Â
You turn into him, your back against the edge of the counter to see what you already knew to be in his hand. He pulls the flowers from behind his back, the stems cut neatly with the help of his adamantium tools. Theyâre beautiful, all hand picked from the surrounding forest around the cabin.Â
He guides them to your hand, noticing your unusual hesitation as you stare at the bouquet. He, too, pauses, looking over your face to understand your silence. Did you hate them? You never usually hate them.
âDo youâŚâ he hesitates, trying to find the words. âHate them?â
âNo,â you say, word soft as you shake your head, the motion just as gentle as your voice.
Logan cocks his head slightly, angling to meet your eyes but you only divert them again, turning away from his gaze as you reach for the bunch of flowers. Only now theyâre out of your grasp, his hand to his chest.Â
âYou okay?â he asks, the withdrawal of the gift an attempt to make you meet his eyes.Â
âYeah,â you lie with a nod, a small, faint, smile accompanying the fib.Â
âYouâre not lying to me, are you?âÂ
You look over him quickly, expression bashful as you shrug. He hates when you lie to him, especially about these things. It was only a white lie really, just a small, teeny tiny mistruth to spare yourself from embarrassment. But your silence doesnât last long.
âI messed up dinner,â you admit, the confession pried from you by his prolonged, patient silence. Your words are quiet as you avoid his eyes, instead staring down to his chest.
He glances past you and into the saucepan, seeing no such fault. He faintly shakes his head, features quizzical as he tries to understand.
âIt looks good to me,â he says, with a slight, but genuine shrug â unable to see what you see.
You close your eyes with a sigh, the noise light and airy as your head drops, gaze lowering.Â
âI forgot the bacon.â
His head cocks once again, the motion like heâs growing more and more confused.Â
âYeah?â he prompts, trying to get you to say more.Â
But thatâs all there is to say, you forgot the bacon â thatâs it. It wasnât like it was a pause or the beginning of some speech.
âItâs your favourite part,â you reply, defeat evident in your voice.Â
âUh-uh?â he guides you through your confession, still unsure of what the issue is. He knew there was more, he just had to ease it out of you.Â
âItâs your favourite part,â you repeat, momentarily glancing up to meet his eyes. âItâs not your favourite meal if I forget your favourite part,â you cut yourself short as your voice begins to waver, a bubble forming in your the back of your throat.Â
He holds onto your short eye contact, following your gaze when your head goes to turn. âCome on now, talk to me,â he offers his comfort, speaking like it was a plea.
âI feel like I can never keep up.â
âKeep up with what?â he questions, desperate to keep you talking.Â
âWith you,â you pause and place your hand over your opposite upper arm, the act a brief moment of self soothing. You exhale softly before continuing. âYou do all these nice things for meâ see? Look,â you point to the flowers in his hand. âRight there. You thought of me and you got them and theyâre beautiful. Why canât I do that?â
Logan opens his mouth to speak, though youâre keen to continue. The bandaid free and invoking all your feelings to come out at once.Â
âI make you desserts, I make a mess. I buy you something, I buy the wrong thing. I make your favourite dinner, I ruin your favourite dinner,â you pause, your vision growing blurry. âSometimes,â you pause once more, wiping your eyes. âSometimes I donât know if you know how much I love you. Like, I can never seem to prove it and I donâtââ you cut yourself off, stopping yourself from what you were about to say. You didnât want to make a further mess of things.Â
âYou donât, what?â he asks, his attention undivided as he listens to you. âYou donât, what?â he repeats, eyes boring into yours as he urges a response from you.Â
âWant you to feel like you made a mistake,â you confess, voice quiet like you were ashamed for thinking such thing.Â
âDo you think I made a mistake?â he questions, flipping your moment of insecurity back on you. Though his words hold no malice, no intention of hurt â just simply speaking like he was trying to figure you out.Â
Your silence speaks louder than any words could. Your eyes quickly flickering over his face like you were anticipating what he may say in response. It could go one of two ways: irritated and angry or soft and hurt.Â
âI havenât,â he says, voice as firm as his eyes. âI know I havenât,â he repeats, trying to engrain it into you.Â
All you can offer Logan is a faint, flattered smile, fragments of disbelief just as evident within you as before. One thing about your husband you knew to be forever true, is his earnest nature. So you knew he wasnât telling you what you wanted to hear only to spare himself.
Logan places the flowers on the counter to the right of you, laying the bunch neatly at your side. He keeps his attention on you, eyes fixed on yours as if heâs trying to prove his sincerity â his honesty.Â
His head drops slightly as he rests his lips against your forehead. âDo you believe me?â he asks gently against your skin, punctuating his question with a kiss to where he just spoke.
You wrap your arms around him as you tuck your face into his neck, hands connecting in the middle of his back. âYeah,â you reply, word muffling into him.Â
It was a lie, a partial lie at that. You knew in your heart âdeep, deep in thereâ that it was true, and that you believed it, but right now? You just couldnât get it into your head. So you lied, not wanting to run around in circles with repetitive asks all evening.
But this is Logan, he knows your tells and when youâre lying. But he doesnât poke any further, instead pressing another kiss to your forehead before pulling away, clearing his throat briefly.Â
âWhy donât you go lay in the tub,â he starts, usual gruff voice now soft, speaking like heâs trying to soothe you. âIâll finish that off,â he gestures with his eyes, nodding to the stove top on the other side of you.Â
You turn to look at the âmessâ beside you and nod, accepting his help with no more deflecting or avoiding. And as you step aside, you stroke over his back where your hands laid just moments before, the act another one of your silent thanks.
His left, ringed hand brushes your left, ringed hand as you move from your placement in front of him, your fingers loosely entwining for a short, brief second before passing.Â
⯠â âŻ
Standing in front of the dresser in your shared bedroom, you change from your towel and into something a little more comfortable â opting for a robe and slippers. You give yourself a quick glance over as you pass the mirror on your way out the room, though you donât take too much notice, instead flicking off the light switch as you set off to the living room.
The bath helped. It helped massively, actually.Â
Your slippers scuffle along the hallway of your cabin, the floorboards worn and creaky by itâs old age. Lingering in the doorframe, you look over at Logan on the sofa, elbows resting on his knees as he stares at the lit fireplace ahead â looking as though heâs lost in thought.
âHi,â you start, capturing his attention.
His eyes flick up to you, a faint âhis usualâ smile welcoming you back. He clears his throat like heâs going to speak but instead he taps the empty seat on the couch beside him.
You look around the open space before your eyes land on the orange, warm light shining out of the oven and onto the tiles. The pie you started to make now sitting on the centre shelf. The rest of your messes cleaned and tucked away, all evidence hidden. And there he sits, asking for no recognition â no praise or approval for cleaning up after you. Heâs just there, patiently awaiting you.
âHow longâs it been in?â you ask, gesturing to the oven. âThe pie,â you add, turning to look at him with a smile.
âThree minutes,â he reciprocates your warmth as he nods you over to him.Â
âDid you let the pastry warm up?â
He nods.
âAnd theââÂ
âTaken care of,â he interrupts, slipping his hand into yours. He guides you to stand between his legs, eyes honed in on you above. Like heâs anticipating you, he answers the question youâre about to ask â once again proving just how well he knows you.Â
âCooked it in ânother pan then added it on top,â he replies, speaking casually.
You stifle a laugh as you shake your head â it was really a simple fix.Â
With his gaze still focused on you, he begins playing with your left hand, his thumb mindlessly grazing your ring â the fiddling an absentminded act. As if heâs reminding him and yourself of your marital bond.
âThank you.â
He hums, the sound far more gentle than his typical rough ones. Itâs like heâs acknowledging your appreciation without taking the credit for it.
You extend your free hand, reaching for the side of his face, touch light as you brush over his cheek. Your thumb traces under his eye, soothing over the tired skin as you take a step closer â silently instructing him to lean against the back.
Logan does as wordlessly asked, his hips rolling underneath himself as he repositions, sitting in a manspread for you. He follows your movements as you sit on his lap, straddling one of his beefy thighs, your arms briefly hooking around his neck as you do so. He looks up at you from your very, very slight height advantage, eyes keen as he gazes into yours â staring like heâs trying to read you. You seem far lighter, far happier than the last time he saw you.Â
One hand rests on his cheek, the other grazing through the shorts of his dark hair â your hold gentle and dear as you press a string of soft, slow kisses across the stubble of his beard. One by one you get closer to his mouth, reaching his lips by the fourth.Â
His hands move up you from behind, skimming across the cheeks of your ass until theyâre resting on your hips, the presence of his hold noticeable through the robes' thin fabric. He begins a pawing â irregular, needy squeezes into you like heâs silently communicating his thoughts and wants, scoping out whether you feel the same.Â
âHow much time is left on the pie?â you quietly ask, speaking against his lips. Your question also an attempt to scope him out.
His grasp around you tightens, the slight force of his hold making your grind against his thigh. âEnough,â he prompts, murmuring into your mouth â lips not yet daring to connect.
He grinds you over your thigh, the motion slow and leisured as he holds you over him, working you up little by little. Gentle exasperated breaths from you caught between your closeness.Â
Upon hearing those sounds he loves ever so much, he pulls you into him, wrapping you into a brief, momentary hug before turning and laying you on the empty space of sofa beside him. He adjusts, situating above you but to your side, weight anchored beside you.Â
You look up at him sweetly, eyes flickering over his face in the same way he does you â specks of admiration and lust forming within each of your glances. You adjust under him, the act like you were trying to redirect him, guide him to above rather than to your side. Wanting to feel him graze up against you.
Logan brings his free hand to the side of your face, touch heavy and desperate as he thumbs over your cheek, holding you there as he presses a couple lengthy kisses to your lips â the contact anything but brisk. And with that hand around the swell of your cheek, heâs grazing it down your neck, trailing towards your chest.Â
He parts the loose, flimsy material of the robe, parting the fabric so he can slip a hand inside. Cupping one of your bare tits, he pulls it out from underneath â the full weight of your breast held within his warm, large hand. All of it on display for him to marvel at from above.Â
Angling his neck, he reaches for your tit, tongue swiping over the nipple just moments before his lips encompass it. The warmth of his mouth making your stomach tingle and fingers tighten in his hair, a jolt-like roll of your hips accompanying your desperate micro actions.
He holds himself there for a prolonged moment, keeping his lips to your nipple as his fingers begin a very slight pawing around the lower swell of it. The motion like heâs rolling you within his hold. A streak of residual wet being left behind as he pulls his head up from your chest.
You look down to him between your tits, his face just mere inches from yours. One of your breasts still within Loganâs manly hold, the pad of his thumb rubbing over your priorly sucked nipple â the act a soothing caress.Â
âWhereâd you want me?â he asks, voice quiet between your close distance. âWhatâd you want?â he adds, just as softly as before, speaking like his one goal is to provide service. Service to you.Â
You make a faint, disgruntled whine upon his questioning, your mind whizzing with thoughts of him, ideas of him. The feel of his cock growing hard against your thigh only making your head race faster.Â
He shifts above you, lips reaching for yours as his hand around your tit travels down and between your thighs. The warmth of his touch is nothing like your warmth. He slips behind the opening of your robe, his fingers itching to your bare cunt ever so slowly, moving like heâs trying to help you decide. Though heâs doing the complete opposite â making it all the more challenging to answer with your mind whirring like it is.Â
He lines the crease of your cunt with the pad of his finger, brushing up and down with the lightest, faintest of touch â his lips resting against yours so he can swallow your jittery breaths. The strokes from him are almost mindless, brushing over you like heâs unaware of the effects he has on you. Still has on you after all this time.Â
âThis?â he whispers against your mouth while his finger trails up the slit of your pussy, grazing over your folds.
You nod against him in response, the motion gentle and careful.
Logan teases over your cuntâs lips, collecting the slight build up of slick to smear and trace over you â spreading your arousal with his light touch. Working you up the and more. He pulls away to look over you, wanting to watch your face.Â
And when your eyes find his, thatâs when he slips his middle finger into you. Holding onto your gaze as he presses inside with the utmost of ease.Â
It was what you needed, not what you wanted. And he could tell â the knitting of your brows and slightly unsatisfied crumple of your nose telling him before you even got a chance. And as you open your mouth to speak, mere milliseconds away from asking him to add another, heâs already lining his ring finger up with you, slipping it inside to accompany his middle.Â
The steady rocking of him further blurs any sense of coherency in your mind, the slow massage-like fucking of his fingers against your g-spot loosening you up nicely for him.Â
Your hand in his hair moves to the side of his face, grip desperate as you hold him there, muffling incoherent words of thanks â each murmur being overshadowed by those blissed noises he can never seem to get enough of. And while you keep his face to yours, your other hand is reaching for his arm between your thighs, fingers struggling to enwrap the meat of his upper wrist.Â
The pumping of his fingers into you is steady, each graze of him from the inside coming from a place of leisure, like the concept of haste is the furthest thing in his mind.Â
Though, heâs only human and thereâs only so much he can take. Especially when youâre squirming under him like you are. The clicking of his fingers in your pussy only making it harder on him.Â
So, he slowly retracts from the wet warmth of your cunt, strings of your cum remaining connected to him, until they donât. And as he pulls himself away from you, he licks over his knuckles, lapping over the milky white band you left around him.
Logan sits on his heels between your thighs as he unbuckles his jeans, his dry hand tasked with the job of unbuttoning. He gives the band a hasty tug down, the act nothing short of pure desperation.Â
He digs down the front to grab a hold on himself, grasp tight around his dick as he pulls it out over the top of his jeans. Cock hard and heavy within his hold. And as he gives himself a few preparatory strokes as he leans back over you in his prior hovered position â weight anchored on his free arm beside your head.
Guiding his cock to you between the opening of your robe, he pushes his head through your lips, collecting your arousal like itâs his personal, endless supply of lube. And only when he deems himself ready, heâs lining up with you, the tip of his dick pressing up against you for a brief moment before heâs easing in. Slowly but surely feeding himself into your cunt.Â
Upon the entry of his thick, heavy cock, your hands fly up to his face, holding either cheek to keep him close, lips skimming like they did just minutes before. Breath being caught in your throat, the air almost trapped as you feel him sink further and further inside, filling you entirely with himself.
He stills, keeping the whole, full length of his cock plugged inside, the motion of his hips non-existent as he gives you a quick second to get reacquainted with his size. He lowers his head, pressing his forehead against yours while he catches his own breath, the suction-like feel from your cunt having the same effect on him as he does you.
You squirm underneath him and your knees cling to his sides, keeping him glued to you.
âMove,â you whisper, the word like that of pure need. âCome on.â
His lips straighten against yours, a subtle smile forming. âThoughtâya liked the buildup,â he speaks quietly.Â
The hand that was around his dick, feeding into you, now rests on your face â carefully manhandling you and keeping you put. Logan nips at your lips quickly, pressing a chaste kiss to them as he rolls his hips into you, bumping his cock up.
âThatâs what you wanted?â he teases, pressing a kiss just under your chin, making you tilt your head back. Hand moving with the motion of him, palm grazing to rest at the base of your throat. âIt is, ainât it?â he continues with his teasing, muttering between kisses along your jaw. âHm?â
You hum, the noise sounding like a whine amongst your other blissed sounds. The concept of formulating coherent speech seeming to be far too difficult with the way he feels inside of you. All you can do is squeeze your eyes closed and nod, unable to do anything more than that â just lay beneath him, taking his tender, loving fucking.Â
Loganâs one true goal: to replace all prior feelings of pain with pleasure, wanting to make you forget about your upset from before. And with the way his dick is winding into you, heâs getting closer to that goal.Â

low iron days soft!loganxlowiron!reader
a/n : my low iron has come back to bite me in the ass so im making this post đ
wc : 1K
LOW IRON COMFORT , FLUFF , SOFT! LOGAN , FATHERLY! LOGAN. origins! / dofp! logan oriented .
It was supposed to be a normal day. You know, the normal stuff, getting up, getting dressed, having breakfast, attending your day classes and then spending the evening doing whatever âprobably going out of your way to annoy Logan a little aswell.
But, no. Of course the universe had to turn against you, and you woke up feeling as shitty as ever.
You groaned, rolling over in your bed and throwing an arm over your unexplicably tired eyes. Your head felt heavy, stuffy, and your body didn't feel right. You didn't really know why, but it felt as if you had ran two marathons and got ran over by a truck at the same time. Except you did know why, your fucking low iron.
You glanced to the side, trying to focus your blurry vission on the alarm clock. Narrowing your eyes, feeling a migraine starting to nag at the back of your head, while you strained your vission in a try of making out the numbers on it. 8:45. You were late.
In a sudden burst of self-consciousness about how embarassingly late you were for class, you sat up on the bed and quickly reached to grab the covers to pull them off you. Bad move. As soon as your body processed the movement your blurry eyes clouded with a variety of colorful spots dancing around the corners of your vission, head spinning.
After the I-just-woke-up fog cleared up, the headache was fully present by now. Drumming inside your head, making you whine softly at the uncomfortable pressure on your temples âyour fingers flying to rub against them, trying to ease it up.
Your fucking anemia seemed to want to come and bite you in the ass.
Mainly, it was your fault, because you had 'forgotten' to take your pills for a while âbut they tasted like fucking dogfood. Your took a deep breath, trying to fill your lungs with oxygen to try and cool down the headache, Logan was going to scold you for this you were sure.
After mentally preparing yourself you managed to get out of bed, one foot after the other, and lean onto the wall for additional support. It felt as if your body wasn't working, feeling heavy and slow and rusty. Was this how Logan felt when he said he was an old man?
You didn't have time to even walk, or try to at least, to your closet to get out of your pyjamas when you heard firm knocking on your door. You winced slightly, feeling as if the sound was echoing inside your head.
"bub" you heard a familiar gruff voice muffled from the wood of the door. "Scott sent me to find ya, said ya didn't come to his class"
His voice was grumbly, clearly annoyed that he had to walk all the way to the third floor of the huge building just to tell you to go to class.
You wanted to cry. Was it an immature response? Yes. Was it better to think about a solution to the problem instead of choosing the emotional option? Yes again. Did you want to chose the rational option instead of crying? Hell no.
So that was when a small sound ripled through your lips, choked and wet, your tired eyes getting moist and your body feeling like a heavy bag of rocks. And Logan's enchanced hearing catched it.
His hand was on the doorknob in a flash, fingers twisting around it and pulling the door open in less than a second. "hey, hey bub what's goin' on?" he grumbled as he strode over to you.
He was next to your side in a second, his instincts flaring up like crazy at the prospect of you crying which would be a reason for being in pain or discomfort. His big, warm, hands went to your shoulders, hazel eyes staring at you as he analyzed everything âhow you were paler than usual and how sickly and unwell you looked. He rubbed his thumbs on your shoulders once or twice before his rough hands were going up to cup your cheeks.
They were wet, when had you started actually crying? You didn't really know.
"Logan.." you croaked out, voice breathy and almost sob-y. Your eyes with the strenght to barely look up at him from under your lashes.
"m'here bub, m'here" he quickly sushed you, his hands gently squishing your cheeks slightly âtrying to ground youâ before he caught onto something. He frowned, his nostrils flaring slightly as he sniffed the air, looking down at you. Your scent that was usually weak, now was almost non-existent.
He groaned softly, rolling his eyes softly because of course this was going to be about your iron problems. He saw the way your body felt heavy, your arms lifeless to your sides, before he was clicking his tongue at you when you tried to look down. "nothin' of that, c'mon, look'a me, yeah, there we go" he grumbled, his thumbs gently wiping away the feverish tears rolling down your cheeks. It was a split second of hesitance before he was leaning down and smacking a kiss against your forehead, his beard gently tickling your skin.
"this about the low iron, bub?" he asked softly, his voice a gentle whisper, his lips still against your forehead. Mouth that was known for saying the driest things now gently caressing your skin. It was his own way of checking your temperature, he noted you were a bit warmer than usual.
You nodded your head, a little "uh-huh" slipping past your lips in almost a hiccupy tone before his hands were leaving your face in favour of wrapping around you and lifting you up into his arms.
He was holding you with the ease of a mother holding a baby, one arm hooked under your legs and his big hand resting on the small of your back to keep you uptight against him. At the little sound you made, he huffed in affection before he was affectionately bumping his nose against your cheek âalmost nosing it.
"you stayin' with me for the rest of the day, bub" he whispered, his voice low and rumbly as his breath hit the skin behind your ear. His arms safely wrapped around you before his lips moved to place another kiss on the skin behind your ear. Who would've guessed the Wolverine was so protective of his cub?
