Bookshop Conversations

Joseph Quinn x Fem!Reader

Summary: A meet-cute with Joe at a bookshop cafe was something you didn't expect. Being a lone wolf for a year now and still being haunted by your past, could you open up your door for him and give love another chance?

Author's Note: I have been staring at a blank page for more than a couple of months, almost every day. Wrote unfinished one shots and series and then scrap it up and toss it in the bin. Been going through a really dark time personally (and still is). Events of the last few days after election didn't help either. Writing is art and art always gets me through a tough time, so that's why I'm here. I haven't been updated to any news in this fandom, and I plan to stay that way. I plan on coming here and publishing and interacting through DMs and ask box about positive stuff about my fics only. This idea appeared just a couple days ago, and it started igniting back some inspiration. Am I back? The answer is: I don't know. I'm taking it slow. Let's take it slow, okay? So, here's a new short series. I've missed some of you, and I hope you enjoy this because I'm winging it with no plot notes. LMAO.

The soft pitter patter of the rain hit the wet, glowing pavement outside. Cars passed by from time to time and people walked down the streets, holding their umbrellas above their heads. There was something about this weather that made you feel warm on the inside. Most people would feel doleful with this kind of weather, but not you. It filled you with a warm feeling that it would pool in your stomach, almost bursting and invading your veins. 

It felt peaceful. 

This cute bookshop cafe that stood on the corner of your street was the only place that made you feel safe lately. Autumn season was starting, and the trees were turning into their orange and yellow hues, surrounding the city of London. The string of light bulbs that hung around the bookshop cafe and the dark wooden shelves made the place feel cozy. It was almost like you were stepping into another world when you entered this place. 

Claire De Lune was playing in a low volume around the shop as you picked up your cappuccino and took a sip. You have been sitting at the small table beside the window for about an hour now. Your head had been stuck in your book, your focus totally disappearing from the world around you as you indulged in a different universe. 

Moving to London was something you had been thinking about for several years now and, knowing the fact that you finally made it, you couldn’t help but feel at ease. The troubles you left behind in California seemed so far away now, even if it still lived in the back of your mind. There were certain things that you still thought about, still feel the pain from the experiences, but you pushed it away. Something you seemed to be an expert on lately. 

This place has been a peaceful solitude for you. It was quiet enough for you to enjoy the peace whilst reading your book, but also enough crowds for you to not be able to drown in your own deep thoughts, unlike when you were all alone in your flat. 

“New book?” 

You had paused from your reading and had been watching the raindrops roll down the glass window, letting your brain play the game of which raindrop was going to roll down first. Turning your attention away from the window, you looked up to see Sara, the owner of the bookshop cafe. Her light brunette hair was in a ponytail today, hazel eyes twinkling in curiosity. She was wearing her usual apron, while carrying a coffeepot in her hand. 

“Um… yeah. Just got it the other day.” You smiled softly. 

As much as you and Sara had a lot in common and actually had pretty good, interesting conversations, you couldn’t help but distance yourself from her. She was always kind, and her eyes always twinkled with sincerity. It wasn’t like she was the problem. It was you. You had closed yourself off too much from other people, especially strangers. As much as you would love to be friends, there was a part of you that kept hesitating. 

Sara tilted her head and squinted her eyes towards the title of the book you were holding. 

“Oh, Little Women.” She smiled. “That’s a good one.”

“Yeah.” You gazed down at the book cover before looking back up at her. “I have never read the book. Thought I should finally do it this time.”

Sara nodded her head in agreement. Just right before she could say something else, Sara's attention turned to the front door when it opened. 

Both of your eyes caught a man with curly brown hair walking in. He was wearing a navy trench coat and carrying an umbrella. The cold breeze trailed behind him, blowing it through your hair. Sara immediately walked up towards him with a smile. You watched as she greeted him kindly and asked if there was something she could help him with. 

You couldn’t help but reel in the sight of him the moment he gave her a soft smile. From the two months of you hanging out in this shop, you have never seen someone so alluring walking into the shop before. Your eyes were glued to him, and you couldn’t seem to peel them away. 

“Thank you.” He murmured to Sara before disappearing between the tall bookshelves. 

Looking away, you cleared your throat and felt your cheeks ignite as you tried to focus your attention back on your book. You picked up your cappuccino and took another sip when you caught sight of him again when he passed by in front of you. You looked at him through your lashes until you realized how ridiculous you must look in front of him. 

His chocolate button eyes immediately caught yours, making you glance away from him instantly. Your cheeks were as red as a tomato at this point as you set your cup down on the table and focused on the book you were reading. There were a million thoughts running through your mind, cursing yourself for being so weird. He must have thought you were strange for staring at him since the moment he entered the shop. 

From the corner of your eye, you could tell he was smirking slightly as he looked through the books in front of him. Your eyes studied the shop and there were only a couple of people hanging around, looking through the books or sipping coffee and reading their books. You couldn't help but curse at yourself mentally again for bringing so much attention to yourself in front of him. 

You hated the attention, and you certainly didn’t need a stranger’s attention when all you wanted was to enjoy your book and mind your own business. 

“That’s a classic.” He interrupted your thoughts.

You just now realized that you have been reading the same line in the book repeatedly because your mind was distracted by him. When you slowly gazed up at him, you saw a kind, soft smile tugging on his lips, and you swore you felt your knees went slightly weak. 

“So, I’ve heard.” You replied, giving him a slight smile back. 

There was no going back now. 

Now that he was standing near to you, you could see the freckles on his face and his long lashes fluttering softly. A strand of curl fell perfectly on his forehead and little drops of water from the rain covered his trench coat.

Your eyes fell on the book he was holding before biting your lower lip. You have read that book because Sara had recommended it to you before, and you knew what was the text behind it. It sure made you glad that he wasn’t afraid to read things like that. The man glanced down at the book he was holding before snickering.

“Something wrong?” He asked.

You shook your head, biting down your inner cheek to stop yourself from smiling. It wasn’t like the book was all… sex. It was about finding yourself and knowing what you want. Although, knowing the people you had before in your life, they certainly judged you for reading something like that. So, you couldn’t help but have that glued to your brain that maybe those kinds of books weren’t really everyone’s cup of tea. 

“Nothing wrong with a little… erotica.” You murmured before he chuckled softly. 

“I think it’s sexy.” He gave you a small smirk, studying the cover page of the book. “I’m assuming you read it before?”

“Um… maybe.” You gave him a playful smile.

He hummed approvingly, “So, tell me… Is it really just about… sex?”

He squinted his eyes at you, and you could tell he was teasing. Leaning back in your chair, you marked the page that you were reading and closed the book. 

“No, it’s about the characters finding themselves and how intimacy can be in different ways other than just physical. I don’t want to spoil too much for you, though.” 

He stared at the book cover again and nodded in agreement.

“I guess I’ll just have to give back a review when I finish it.” Smiling, his eyes studied you for a moment before walking away. 

What did he mean by that? 

You stopped yourself from getting up from your seat as he made his way towards the coffee counter. It was rare for you to encounter certain people that pull your gravity towards them. The moment he entered the shop, you felt that pull already. That micro conversation that you both just had, you already felt the spark between you two. 

Letting out a small sigh, you pushed the thoughts away and told yourself that he was just a stranger. 

A stranger with a nice smile. 

For a few minutes, you went back to indulging yourself in your book, finishing your cappuccino before you heard the front door open. Feeling the breeze through your hair again, you glanced up to find him giving you a warm smile before walking out the door. 

Accepting it, you knew it was one of those rare occasions where you would meet someone interesting and lose them forever. It wasn’t like you were interested in meeting somebody these days, but sometimes, you couldn’t help but think that it would be nice too to have a small meet-cute in a bookshop.

God, you have been reading too many books lately. It was getting in your head.

“Seems like someone has taken an interest in you.” Sara smiled, placing an apple turnover on a plate for you. 

“I didn’t order this.” You shook your head, pushing the plate towards her lightly.

“Someone did for you.” Sara winked. 

You turned your head to the side, side eyeing her before Sara chuckled softly at your reaction. 

“That cute man just asked if you were a regular customer here.” Sara explained. “Don’t worry, I didn’t give out any details. Though he insisted on at least getting you a pastry.”

Staring at the apple turnover that was in front of you, you bit back a smile before looking out the window. He was gone, and you didn’t even get the chance to thank him. 

You couldn’t help but wonder why he did such a gesture.

i think that a lot of people don’t understand or weren’t conscious of the steddie apocalypse that occurred immediately after st4 aired. it was insane

[dwobbitfromtheshire]

What if Steve got cursed instead of Nancy?

Nancy and Eddie were screaming at him to wake up, but his eyes were still glazed over. Robin was screaming in Eddie's bedroom, trying to find music.

"Quick, Wheeler, kiss him!" Eddie squeaked.

"W-hy?" Nancy asked.

"You know, true love's kiss!" Eddie exclaimed.

"What?! One, Steve and I are not in love, and two, I don't believe in true love, not for me anyway." Nancy said.

"Makes sense. Okay, I completely misread that situation," Eddie said.

"Why don't you kiss him?" Nancy asked.

"What? Why?!" Eddie asked.

"Because I'm not completely stupid," Nancy said, and her face softened. "I've seen what Steve’s like when he's falling in love."

"Fine!"

Eddie grabbed him and kissed him. He felt him relax all of a sudden, causing him to break the kiss. Eddie's knees collapsed, and Steve was lying sideways in his arms. His face was ashen as he looked at Eddie, breathing heavily. Steve grabbed his face, trembling, and kissed him. Eddie felt the tears on Steve’s face as he sobbed against his lips.

"Eddie," Steve cried, breaking the kiss and burrowing his face into his neck.

Eddie gripped him tightly, rubbing his back and kissing the top of his head.

"I've got you, big boy. I'm here," Eddie whispered.

“Did you eat lunch today baby?” “Yes..” “did you really?” “Yes…” “are you lying?” “Also…yes…” “okay sit down and I’ll make you something.” “I’m not hungry right now…” “how much coffee have you had today love?” “I don’t think you’re going to like my answer.” “Right…okay well you need to eat something so please just sit down.” “Ohh will you make me a grilled cheese? That sounds good…and maybe some soup?” “A grilled cheese and soup? That’s what you want?” “Yes please.” “Okay love…now please just get comfy and it’ll be ready in a bit.”

“Just hold on tight to me and don’t let go okay?” “There’s a lot of people out there…” “i know baby but you’ll be okay I’m going to be right here and no one will bother you.” “Okay…okay I think…yeah I’m ready.” “It’s going to be fine love, just don’t let go of me okay?” “I won’t let go…” “Look at me sweetheart…it’s going to be fine we just have to walk from here to the car and that’s it…it’s only a few blocks.” “Okay.” “You ready?” “Yes…I’m ready..let’s do it.”

“Here you go love…arms up…good girl….how’s that feel? Good?” “Where have you been hiding this sweatshirt at Mr. Quinn?

[famejauregui]

you know something i was just rewatching game of thrones as one does and i really had no idea that you played koner. when i saw your name in the credits i almost jumped out of my seat! i have a major question though? do you wish that it would've been done by the book more or did you enjoy how it all played out? @jocquinns

[mcntgcmerydcre]

dude, i barely even saw you when we were in cannes. and i didn't see jamie either so i guess i know where you two were hiding out... god, don't give me any details please. but honestly, don't be one of those dudes forgetting your friends here because you're loved up!! i need some fun too, you know. we partying soon? // @jqxinn

[lunastar92]

[dreamofzndaya]

Joe, I hope you know that I’m dragging your ass to that spa as soon as possible. I didn’t forget about our little spa conversation and now the best opportunity for it fell right into our hands. I may or may not have stowed a small thing of glitter in one of my bags to use against you if you refuse to go with me, is that extreme? maybe but you need some pampering and it’s my job as your amazing friend to help you out @quinnofdreams​

[killatrav-hq]

I can't remember what you said the last time, are you a sports fan or no? Because I have to be honest, man, that's about half of what I talk about. The other half is reserved for Nat and my family, so I apologize in advance if you find that annoying, especially since you might be seeing me quite a bit in the next few months. @quinnofdreams

[teaguehq]

In that case, I know I'll always be happy for getting so many of your kisses! Plus I can't help giving you plenty of kisses in return, I'll have you know. Well, you mean a lot to me too, and it's easy to care so much about you. I know I'm always happy we get the weekends together now that I'm filming, even though the week leading up tends to feel so long. Though I'm looking forward to this one in particular since I'll get more time with you thanks to the Salem trip! Halloween is going to be so much fun this year. That's the only reason I'll be happy when filming is over, since I'll get to spend more time with you. Thank you for being so understand, Joseph. It makes me feel better that you understand, and I know logically you would since you're an actor too. I just feel like I sometimes still have weird hang-ups over a relationship ending because of distance, like a small part of me felt hesitant to tell you had a new gig or feel happy about it, which sounds silly to say out loud. Little things like that just take some time to ease, I guess, and you just mean a lot to me, and I don't want to lose you. So, at least you're used to my clinginess! It just makes me feel good you want to work this out no matter what. And it makes me feel better that you're a little clingy too, which I don't mind in the least if it means I get to be in your arms. I'm so glad you've liked the dates I've planned, and safe to say I always like yours! Like the one this past weekend was completely unreal, and I'm still smiling thinking about the dinner and the hike to the hot springs! Not to mention I'm still day dreaming about being in there with you and what we got up to, which I'm glad those were mostly private. It makes me happy to be your boyfriend, and I'm still so thrilled you wanted to be. I can't help it, you have beautiful eyes I love looking into, and you're even cuter when you blush. It was probably a miracle I could play anything at all with you being so distracting, you know. I honestly can't wait to see the things you've been working on knitting though! And I miss you, though I at least know you've got good company and some cuddles with your pup there. I like Jamie and Anya so much already, and of course I'd love to spend more time with them and get to know them better. I'm excited for seeing the secret entrances to the Catacombs with them if they're willing to take us! I'll always give you plenty of kisses and hold your hand to protect you too, love. And you know I'd love more double dates with Alex and Troye and Jamie and Anya as well, since they're both so much fun! I'm still smiling about you carrying me through the pub just to make sure I didn't get wet, my hero! It was definitely an amazing memory, and I wouldn't mind going back to that pub again sometime. You'll make me blush saying you can't get enough of me and calling me sexy, though that's mutual and I certainly couldn't get enough of you. I still miss waking up to you during the week, though I'd like to think we make up for it during the weekends with the kissing and staying in bed just a little while longer. For the record, you're welcome to silence me with kisses as much as you'd like to.

I do love your New York place already, and the thought of getting to stay there with you when we're in the city is exciting! Plus I love that you live so close to me too, that we'll both be in the city when we're not working. I'm so happy you loved my favorite rooftop bar as much as you did, plus I knew oysters would sweeten the deal! It's just sad it's getting colder in the city, so it'll be too chilly for that soon enough. It makes me happy you loved the date I planned during your first weekend in Calgary, and I mostly wanted to thank you for flying there when I know it's a long way from London. I think picnics in a pumpkin patch might be my favorite new fall thing with you! We'll have to go another cooking class sometime when we both had so much fun with it, don't you think? Especially when our dish turned out so well, and we can learn more to make together! We'll definitely have to plan a trip to Florida then, for some camping and to visit the sanctuary! Plus it's been a while since I visited Bentley, and he may be wondering where I am. A romantic vacation for when we're finished filming? I'd be all for that! Did you have somewhere in mind, or shall we brainstorm? I can't help saying you're the best view when you're so handsome, and you're making me blush again saying that feeling is mutual. I love that Sussex is one of your favorite places to visit, and now mine with all the great memories we made there. I'd love to go back and have that same room and access to the beath and hot tub! Were you showing me some of those things during the hot springs this past weekend? Because I have to say, I liked what's on your mind, then. I love taking showers with you too, and can't resist you whenever you press me up against the shower wall like that. You're making me blush again saying you can't see a time you'd not want me, and that's so mutual. I'm just so grateful we've met and we're in each other's lives this way. You can have me as much as you'd like, just so you know. And you are beautiful, and I think the more I get to know you, the more I feel that way. Yeah, I have the same feeling, that we just get each other, you know? So I don't have to second guess being open with you. I'm missing your trailer already, if I'm honest, and I might fly in a little early on Friday just to have a taste of it before you have your time off for the trip! I still can't believe you told that fib and showed up to surprise me, Joseph, but it was honestly the best surprise ever and clearly I didn't know what to do with myself and how happy it made me when I literally shut down a scene running over to you! But thank you for doing that, and I'd like to think I repaid you plenty with what we got up to in my trailer, right? I think it's a great idea to celebrate and break in your New York apartment once we have more time, and we can break mine in a little more too. I knew my friends would like you though, no doubt about that in the least. I can't wait until out next picnic in Central Park too, and maybe we can plan one somewhere in Salem, even if it's bound to be a little spooky. You're welcome for the picnic I planned in Calgary too, and I wanted to include a lot of your favorite things to eat! I'll definitely have to plan something to cook when I arrive there, especially knowing the way it makes you feel. Even better that it's your love language! One of mine's words of affirmation, if it wasn't obvious. I feel lucky every day that you're my boyfriend too, and I can't wait until we're together again so I don't have to miss you as much as I do. | @josephafq

i'm glad to hear that my kisses are still a reward, love, and i hope you know i plan to always give you plenty! i can't help but smile when you say you care about me -- especially given how much you already mean to me, yeah? i do think we're very good together, and of course iam very happy the feeling is so mutual. even though i couldn't come with you when you had to leave for filming, i'm glad i at least get weekends with you! i'm glad you're excited about the project, especially when i know you're going to be fantastic, but i understand completely about it being difficult to be away from me, because i hate being away from you so much. and i understand being a little weird about distance since you've had a relationship end over it, but as i've already told you, i'm not going anywhere, baby, and we'll make the distance work no matter what. plus, i don't think you were being very clingy at all, not anymore clingy than i was being, at least. i love getting to hold onto you as much as i can before it's time for us to go our separate ways, though. i'm so glad that i've managed to show you such a great time with the dates that i plan, and it's safe to say that i've loved every single date you've planned for us too. especially this last one over the weekend! i'm glad that you were hoping i'd want to be your boyfriend, and i'm also very glad that i asked first, because nothing makes me happier than saying you're my boyfriend. i love that i make you blush so often, which is why i find it so cute when you do it! now see you're making me blush talking about my eyes, love, but i'm glad that you'll never tire of looking into them. i'm glad that you'd not complain about me touching or kissing you no matter what you're doing -- and i'm still pretty amazed you were able to at least play something on the mandolin with me being all over you. i'm glad to be on your mind, love, and it's safe to say that while we're apart, all i do is think about you and miss you. that's what i was thinking! and since i've had downtime with you not being here, i've been working on some things for you for the winter that i hope you like! plus, you're sweet to say that you'll be the most stylish wearing things i've knitted for you. yeah?  i love that no one else has ever made you blush as much as i do, and of course i think you're gorgeous. it makes me feel good knowing you can't stop looking at me, though. i'm glad you love looking at me so much. i'm thankful we've found each other too, and that i have such an amazing boyfriend as well. it makes me really happy that you want to get to know jamie and anya better, i just love the idea of us being able to spend more time together! i'm glad you've been to the catacombs before, but i'll admit the secret entrances are rather questionable. but as long as you have fun with it, that's all that matters to me. well, that and as long as you hold my hand and give me plenty of kisses, so i'm not scared too. hopefully we'll be able to have more double dates with alex and troye, and maybe jamie and anya too! hey, i couldn't have my baby get wet, right? so of course i was going to carry you through the pub when it started flooding! plus, i loved making you laugh when i did that. i'm glad you felt safe though, and it really was a fun memory that we made together. we've made a lot of fun memories together so far, i think! i'm glad i'm sexy to you, love, and you're always going to be sexy to me, i simply can't get enough of you. that's why weekends are my favorite as well -- because i love getting to stay in bed with you for a while. though it's safe to say that i miss getting to wake up and kiss you every morning now that you're filming, just means i have to kiss you as much as possible while i'm visiting on the weekends! oh, next time i see you, that's exactly what i'm going to do, silence you with kisses.

i'm glad that you think my new york place is gorgeous, especially when i hope you'll be there with me when i'm in new york and all. but even when you're not there, it makes me feel better knowing it's so close to your place! i can see very much why you wanted to take me to that rooftop bar because it was perfect, but i also really love that you know me so well that oysters will pull me into going anywhere. and you're right, the weather was perfect, and i'm glad we went when we did! it's safe to say that the first date you took me on while we were in calgary was perfect, i loved the picnic and the pumpkin patch! not to mention the breakfast in bed, as well as the fancy dinner afterward, you really went above and beyond, love. the cooking class date was so perfect, and i'm glad it's one we did right before you had to leave. and we did a great job! plus, i look forward to making lobster bisque with you more often, because ours turned out pretty good, don't you think? i love the idea of us planning to go camping in florida, especially if you think i'll enjoy myself. and yes! i would love to be able to visit the sanctuary while we're there so i can meet bentley, that would be perfect, love. though i was thinking about planning us a romantic vacation for when we're both done filming, would you be up for that? you're making me blush, saying i'm the best view and the one that your eyes enjoy the most, but the feeling is very mutual. i'm still so happy that you enjoyed the trip to sussex, love, especially when it's one of my favorite places to visit! we'll go back there though -- and we'll make sure to get that room again, so we can have some more fun on the beach and more fun in that tub. you're so cute blushing at the things we got up to while we were in the tub, though i'm already thinking about when we can get up to those things again next time we're together and have a tub at our disposal. it's safe to say i love taking showers together with you, love, i might enjoy pressing you up against the shower wall a whole lot and all. it makes me happy we're both glad to be in each other's lives too, and i can't see a time i'd ever not want you either, owen. i want you so much every second of every day. you do take my breath away, baby, there's no doubt about that. but i'll say you're making me blush, calling me a beautiful person inside and out, especially when i feel the same way toward you. i'm glad that you feel we're meant to be, because i feel the same way and we really do understand each other. plus, it makes me happy that you don't have to feel nervous to share anything with me. i'm glad that i can show you how much i want you whenever i want, and we really did have a lot of fun in my tailer, and after i was done on set, didn't we? i can't wait to show you how much i want you again this weekend. and i can't promise just yet that i can visit you while you're on set -- but i'm going to do my best, and then we can have a lot of fun in your trailer. i love when you show me how much you want me in return. as soon as we both have the time, we'll have to celebrate and break in my new york apartment once i'm moved in, what do you think? i'm glad it was a good visit to new york too, and i'm glad your friends ended up liking me. i'm all for making a tradition of having picnics in central park, love. and i love the city in the fall, so we'll have to make sure we get another picnic in before it's no longer fall! thank you for the picnic this weekend, and for making sure it included smoked quiche and sausage rolls, you're very sweet for that! i love you cooking for me, it makes me feel so special and cared for, you know? and i'm happy to cook for you, since that's one of my love languages and all. you make me feel very lucky every day that you're my boyfriend too, love, and right now i'm just missing you so much. || @teaguehq

The first time Princess sleeps at Joe's place: he buys a calming air freshener and those dryer balls to make his sheets as soft as possible so that she sleeps well and stays again, texts her reminders of what to pack, closely watches her night routine in case he gets the opportunity to assist in the future, holds her jaw (and does that thumb rub) to apply her lip balm, and has her stuffy give her a cheek kiss goodnight. He stays up for a bit after she falls asleep, propped up on an elbow and stroking her cheek, to look at her in his bed (but in a not creepy way); it took her a while to fall asleep because she kept shifting to get even closer to him and stealing one last look at her pretty boy.

Hii babes!! So I absolutely love this and I hope you enjoy these conversations between Joe and Princess!🥹💖

-find all things Joe and his Princess here✨

-also the first one is based on my Polar Bear named Frank because all hell will be raised if he touches the floor😂 don’t ask why I’m just weird about him touching the floor🙈✨

*Joe just wants you to be comfortable so you’ll want to stay over again*

“Did you pack your stuffy my darling?” “I did, you only sent me about five texts reminding me not to forget him.” “I just know you can’t sleep without him so I didn’t want to risk you forgetting him and not being able to sleep well…is that him then?” “Yes…this is Brucey the Bear and he can’t touch the floor or…I will freak out.” “Oh right okay…nice to meet you Brucey…no pressure.”

“Is that lavender?…oh my god how are your sheets so soft?” “Yes I got a little uhm diffuser thing like the one you have at your place…I just use fabric softener and those dryer ball things.” “I’m never leaving this bed…really it’s so comfortable and soft…did you really get a diffuser just for me?” “I just wanted you to be comfortable love that’s all.” “Well you’ve accomplished that goal lovey.”

“So you do your serums first then…what?” “Oh then it’s my face and eye cream…why are you watching me like that?” “Just taking mental notes baby…just in case I have to do this for you one day.” “You’d do my skin care for me?” “Of course…so what’s the last step?” “Uh it’s just my lip balm.” “May I?” “Sure…oh your hands are soft have you been using that lotion I gave you?” “I have…how’s that? Or do you need more?” “It’s perfect…can we go snuggle now?”

“All nice and cozy Princess?” “I forgot my fuzzy socks…” “that’s okay baby I have a few pairs…I picked them out so you’d have some here just in case…so white with purple flowers or white with pink hearts?” “Ohh hearts please lovey…oh these are so soft I love them.” “I’m glad…left foot please sweetheart…good girl…okay now are you all nice and cozy and ready for bed?” “Yes…I just need my boyfriend to come snuggle with me and I’ll be ready for bed.” “Comfy?…do you need anything?” “I’m good…what about you? Do you need anything?” “I’ve got everything I need right here.”

“Love? Are you asleep?” “No…m’not sleep yet.” “Right…sweet dreams baby…Brucey and I will just be watching over you.” “Love you…lovey.” “I love you too darling….she’s quite adorable when she’s asleep isn’t she Brucey?…..right I’m talking to a teddy bear…”

Summary: Joe has been giving hints and it's making your heart explode every time.

You knew you should have seen it coming.

It wasn’t like he wasn’t making it obvious these last few weeks. It wasn’t like his little actions were something he has been hiding. You should have seen it coming, but you didn’t want to expect anything. You didn’t want to hope just in case you were wrong, you know? You didn’t want to feel disappointed if it was just your mind making things up. 

It started off at the night of his movie premiere. You were all dressed up, and Joe couldn’t get his eyes off of you. Though, that wasn’t the thing that stuck out the whole night because Joe always looked at you like that no matter what. He was always telling you how stunning you were and that he was so lucky. The movie premiere went smoothly. You joined him at the red carpet and everyone was so proud about the movie and then, the after party came. You didn’t know if it was Joe having way too many drinks, or your mind was just being delusional. 

You sat next to him in the booth. Joe and his co-stars were laughing talking about a memory from the set, and you couldn’t help but let your mind wander somewhere else. It wasn’t like you were bored with their conversations or anything. You were actually enjoying yourself, but it was Joe’s soft touch on your hand under the table that was distracting you so much. 

“You know you should watch out for Joe.” One of his co-stars told you. “I would run off if I still had the chance.” He teased. 

You laughed softly, shaking your head as Joe wrapped an arm around you. His hand softly caressing your arm and his other hand… well… 

It was doing something that was making your heart race. 

Your hand was set on his lap and his index finger was grazing over your bare ring finger. You couldn’t help but purse your lips as you tried to keep your attention on the conversation in front of you. Joe kept that going for the rest of the night, and he didn’t say one word about it when you got home. So, you let the subject go. 

Then, you noticed one night when you were slowly falling asleep on the bed that Joe was just smiling and staring at you. His fingers caressing your soft cheek, while you were fighting hard to keep your eyes open. 

“Hmm…” You smiled, letting out a soft hum. 

“So beautiful.” Joe whispered, kissing your hair. “I love you so much.”

“I love you too, Joe.” You smiled, moving closer to him. 

You rested your head on his chest, your fingers finding his as you played with them. Joe then intertwined his fingers with yours and brought your hand on his lips, pressing a soft kiss on the back of your hand. 

“You have no idea how much you occupy my heart.” Joe said. “It’s all yours, darling. All of it.”

“I love you so much.” You smiled, pressing your face on his neck.

Joe held you tighter in his arms as comfortable silence blanketed the room for a moment. You two never really talked about the subject of it, but you knew there was that mutual understanding between the two of you. You just knew. You both really didn’t have to talk about it because what was there to talk about, right? You both already knew where this was heading. 

“You know, there was no other woman I felt this way about.” Joe murmured. “When I first saw you, I knew in my heart that it was you. You’re the one I want to spend the rest of my life with.”

You hitched a breath as Joe grazed his fingers over your bare ring finger again. You kept your eyes close, face still pressed on his neck. You didn’t know if you could look into his eyes right now. With the words he was speaking, your heart was beating hard out of your chest that you swore he could hear and feel it. 

“Darling?” Joe moved back a little, gazing down at you. 

You kept your eyes shut and stayed still. Joe’s fingers grazed over your cheek again, his lips tugging into a small smile. 

“You’re the love of my life, you know that?” Joe whispered as you fluttered your eyes open. 

You smiled at Joe, glancing up at him and said, “What’s going on, Joe?”

“What do you mean?” 

“I’ve noticed it lately…” You tilted your head at him. 

Joe raised his brow, pretending like he didn’t know what you were talking about. 

“Notice what?”

You chuckled softly, shaking your head. “Nevermind.”

Joe reeled you back in his arms, kissing your hair softly. “I just want you to know how much I love you.”

You nodded your head, smiling softly as you set your head back on his chest. You didn’t want to say it first if he couldn’t admit it because you didn’t want to look stupid. Maybe you really were being delusional in the first place. Maybe Joe really was just being sweet and wanted to reassure you of his love. 

That was all. 

You finally let that subject go for a few weeks. It didn’t appear in your thoughts again until that one night when Joe had taken you out for a date night. He had suggested taking you into a nice restaurant since it had been a while since you both had gone out on a date. So, you agreed. You dressed up in a nice pale blue silky dress, and Joe was in a nice button up and trousers. You couldn’t help but run your fingers through his curls the moment you saw him waiting for you by the front door.

Joe hummed approvingly as he set his hands on your hips, pressing your body against his. 

“God, I can never get over how stunning you are.” Joe whispered, kissing down your neck. 

“And I can never get over how handsome you are.” You smiled, feeling his hands gently run down your sides. 

Joe gazed down at you, his eyes sparkling before leaning down to kiss you passionately. Leading you out the door, Joe had taken you to the restaurant that he chose, and it was nice and cozy. You couldn’t help but enjoy this moment with him. It really had been a while since you two had spent time together, especially with both of your busy schedules. 

“I’ve missed this.” You smiled, taking a sip of your wine.

“Me too.” Joe took your hands in his from across the table. “Sorry if I have been so busy, darling.”

“Joe,” You tilted your head at him. “I understand. You don’t have to apologize.”

“I know, but still…” Joe took a deep breath, playing with your fingers. “I want to apologize and want you to know that I love you.”

Squeezing his hand lightly, you gave Joe a warm reassuring smile. “Joe, I know. I love you too.”

Joe smiled slightly, looking down at your fingers. He played with the ring that you had on your middle finger for a moment before slipping it off. You watched as he slid it over to your ring finger and for a moment, you felt your lungs stopped working. You felt your heart almost exploding as Joe smiled slightly before slipping the ring back on your middle finger again. 

“Joe–” You whispered.

“Good evening, I’m Elle. I’ll be your server this evening.” The server stood by your table, giving both of you a genuine smile.

You pulled your hands away from Joe, your index finger and thumb playing with your ring anxiously under the table. Suddenly, the thoughts that you had pushed away from the last few weeks appeared in your mind again. You bit your lower lip, trying to focus your attention back on Joe and the server. You could feel your heart beat a thousand miles per minute, and you didn’t know how to really react with what just happened.

The rest of the night, you tried to keep your thoughts to yourself. You told your mind to be quiet and just enjoy this dinner date with Joe, especially that it had been so long since you both have done this. Joe never mentioned it once during the whole dinner. He acted like nothing happened and what he did was just a normal thing. However, your heart couldn’t fit in your chest anymore. No matter how much you tried to push the thought away, you kept repeating that little scene he did before dinner. 

“Hold on a second, darling.” Joe held your hand before you could open your front door later that evening. 

“What is it?” You turned to face him as he cupped both of your cheeks between his hands.

“I just want to do this.” Joe leaned down to kiss you softly on the lips. 

You chuckled softly, kissing him deeper and pulling him close to you. You wrapped your arms around his neck as Joe continued to kiss you, this time so lovingly and gentle. 

“I love you.” He murmured through the kiss.

You let out a soft hum as you ran your fingers through his hair. 

“Marry me.” Joe murmured through the kiss. 

You froze for a moment, parting from the kiss as you stared at him with wide eyes. Joe, however, gave you a look that was all so loving. His chocolate button eyes twinkled as he caressed your cheek with his thumb. 

“W…What?” Your words stuttered as you processed what you just heard. 

Joe didn’t say anything as he walked around you and unlocked the front door. He turned to face you again, held out his hand and opened the front door of your flat. You gasped softly as soon as you saw what was behind him. The place was lit by candles and rose petals were laid out all over the floor. 

It was like what you saw in the movies. 

“My love.” Joe took your hand in his as you both entered the flat. 

You swallowed every emotion that was coming up in your throat as you watched Joe’s hand reach for his pocket. Then, he gazed up at you, holding a small red box in his hand, and a smile tugging on his lips as he got down on one knee in front of you.

“Joe, I–” 

“Darling, you knew that the first time I saw you, I knew that you were the one. You make me a better person everyday, and I love you so much. My heart is yours forever. Would you do me the honor to spend the rest of your life with me?”

You gasped softly, both your hands covering your mouth as tears welled up in your eyes. Your heart was racing, and you could barely find words in your mind. 

“Will you marry me?” 

“Yes.” You smiled as you helped Joe get up from the floor. “A thousand times yes. Yes to forever with you. Yes to everything with you.”

Joe grinned happily as he took the ring from the box and slid it on your ring finger before reeling you into his arms and kissed you passionately. Everything almost felt unreal as you kissed him back. 

“I love you.” You murmured, smiling happily.

You have never felt this happy before. Your heart was exploding in happiness as Joe kissed you again and held you in his arms. A big wide grin on his face, tears welling up in his eyes the moment he parted from the kiss.  

“I love you.” Joe whispered, embracing you. 

Wrapping your arms around his neck, you stared into his eyes, happiness radiating from the both of you. 

With Joe, it was always going to be yes. 

Forever.

The End.

Hunger for Touch

Joseph Quinn x reader

smut with switch! joe, wrote this trying to cope with all the content we're getting lately because i neeeddd himmmmm

It had been over two weeks of not seeing each other, sixteen days to be exact. You talked every day, but you missed seeing each other in person, you missed having a conversation without having to wait some minutes or even hours for a reply, or see each other without a glitch on the screen. You missed hugging, kissing, touching. And it showed.

As soon as you walk in the door coming home from work, he jumped on you.

"Oh!"

"Fucking finally" he grunts as he hugs you conpletetly covering you, towering you, wrapping you with his arms, making you feel small next to him.

You hug him back once the surprise effect passes. Kisses are shared in your mouths, cheeks, necks, frontheads, even hair. Just everywhere. Mixed with 'I missed you's and 'I love you's.

That transforms into walking over the couch where he sits, pulling you to sit on his lap. Sweet kisses become deeper, and hands start moving and wondering on eachother's bodies.

"Missed you so much, babe" he whispers against your mouth, his hands carresing your waist pulling you even closer.

"Yeah? You did?" you say in a soft tone, almost as if you didn't believe him. But it was all part of the game.

"Yeah," he breathly moans before another kiss, "so fucking much"

"Yeah?" you breath against him as well. As you slowly start moving your hips forward and then backward again. Sarting to grind down on him.

He kisses you somehow even deeper, and his hans start pulling on your shirt. You lift it over your head, and he wastes no time to start kissing your neck and unhooking your bra to then take it off as well.

He lowers his kisses to your breasts, and you grind harder on him to find some kind of relief.

He's holding you so tight you wouldn't be surprised to find purple marks later where his fingers were.

"Need you, baby" he confesses.

"Yeah? Where do you need me?" you tease him a little.

"Please, baby"

"Tell me Joe, what do you need?" you insist.

"Need you, need- need to be inside you" he stuggles to say, and you keep grinding, feeling his hard cock against your clit.

"Inside me?" you ask, but he's already nodding. "Yeah?"

You open his shirt quickly and then move your hands to his pants, where you fight a little to open it. He yanks his pants down as you take yours off, panties and all.

You sit on him again, and his hands quickly return to your hips, bringing you closer. You grab his dick softly. He's really hard, and his tip is red. You move to feel it against your entrance to then sink down slowly.

He throws his head back with a sigh, and you keep sinking down. You moan at the feeling of him inside you once again.

"Fuck, you're so tight" he moans as he grips you harder, definitely leaving marks on your hips.

You move up and down on his cock, quickly finding a rithm as he helps moving you with his hands.

"Oh, Joe" your head throws back now, arching your back at how good he feels. "You're so big"

He moans, and he starts moving you even faster. "Fuck, baby, I'm not gonna last long. Missed you too much"

"I'm not gonna last either, baby" you admit as well.

He leaves messy kisses all over your chest and neck. You feel his strong and marked shoulders and down to his arms. He's getting so muscly that it turns you on even more.

One of his hands goes down to your clit to start playing with it, making you move faster as you feel your climax getting closer.

"Are you close too? Gonna cum with me?" he asks suddently feeling dominant again.

"Yes, Joe!" you let him take control, and he starts moving you harder. "Oh, shit"

"Fuck, that's it. Cum with me, darling" he orders and you do as he says. Letting your climax take over your body while you moan his name.

He finishes seconds later griping you even harder but you can't find it in you to complain, it just added to the pleasure.

You stay with your head on his shoulder trying to find your breath and he does the same but with his head thrown back against the coutch's cushions.

After some minutes like that, you can think straight again. You leave a few kisses on his shoulder, up to his jaw. Then move to leave one last kiss on his lips, one that he returns happily.

"Hi" you finally say with a cheeky smile on.

"Hi, beautiful" he laughs.

i totally agree! plus, it's so rewarding to adopt a pet, whether it's a dog or a cat. exactly, you're already used to bach being so energetic so it's only natural that you'd find it weird if he suddenly stopped acting like that. plus, the fact that he's got so much energy in him means that he'll make you act energetic as well! that's so amazing to hear. i'm really glad that he's doing well now and that he's able to cope with separation anxiety in a better way. i understand you -- i always feel bad when i have to leave tank behind, yet i know how traumatic it can be for dogs to travel long distances. if only there was a way to let them know that we're not going to leave them forever, you know? that'd certainly make things easier for you and your pet. aw, poor thing -- he was upset to see you go! at least, just like you said, you're going to be filming at home for the next couple of months, so that way you won't have to leave bach behind. i have no idea if feeding other dogs would make tank jealous -- i'll have to try! she's super sweet, but i honestly don't know what her reaction might be if i give her cupcakes to other pups. you think so? i don't think they'd take back the fact that my food tastes horrible -- they'd probably just tell me that their comments aren't personal. then again, hopefully the crying card makes them nicer when it comes to talking about the food. aw, i love that! it's always way better to cook for friends, isn't it? of course! our cupcakes are going to be amazing, just wait for it. moroccan food? i'm not sure if i've ever tried it, but now i'm curious to know what it tastes like. she lives for compliments and i live for making her happy, so don't blame me for telling her she's such a good girl all the time! the more you talk about bach, the more i want to meet him and cuddle with him. he sounds like the sweetest dog around! aw yes, i love the idea of them becoming besties too. of course i'll let you know -- and you'll have to make some of this moroccan food you've been talking about! @josephafq

that's exactly the truth -- and i feel like if more people had pets, they'd understand where we're coming from, yeah? plus i agree it's one of those life experiences that one needs to have, and everyone should have it at least once in their life if you ask me. that's exactly what i was saying because i love bach just the way he is and if he was no longer active and energetic i would think something was wrong! so i'll love the fact that he'll have that pup energy forever -- and you're not wrong, i have a feeling i'll never get bored around him. i did and the trainer is amazing! he's already done such wonderful work with bach, that i think we've got his separation anxiety under control! i mean we've still got more work to do, but he's doing so great already that i have high hopes for this training and bach! oh gosh, it was very hard to leave him behind and i wanted to come back a couple of times and get him. but i knew my stay in la would be a short one -- so it wasn't worth the trouble of bringing him, you know? but i'm like you, i wish they could understand when we leave them behind and that's why i'm thankful my next few movies are filmed here in the uk, so i won't have to leave him behind! he did ignore me for two hours, and my heart was broken a little bit, but i understood why he was upset. thank you, because if she likes them then i'm going to make some for bach! if she doesn't like them, you'll have to find other dogs to feed. though will that make tank jealous? oh love, i could just imagine if you started crying if the judge was rude about your food, you'd probably have them apologizing so quickly! i was cooking earlier today and five of my mates ended up showing up, so i was happy to cook for them and it felt a lot less lonely around the house! i'm excited that you're looking up different cupcake recipes for us, i just know we'll make some amazing cupcakes! oh, you can never go wrong with a good cookie! yes! i love the idea of cooking or baking foods from different parts of the world as well. i filmed in morocco for a while and i'm all about making moroccan food now. that's so cute that she loves compliments, and even cuter that she was wagging her tail when she heard them! you're not wrong, bach truly was made for cuddling and i love cuddling him a lot. that's exactly how i see it -- and he's a pretty big dog! i love the idea of bach and tank becoming besties when they meet, that would be the sweetest! yes, always let me know when you're in london because i'll show you the town, and feed you! || @sydswccn

This was such a bad idea. No, it wasn’t a bad idea. It was the worst idea, one of the worst things you have maybe ever done. That bar wasn’t set too high, but the point remained. It was stupid and bad, and you just shouldn’t be doing it. And yet, here you are. 

You had been out drinking with your friends, ironically trying to get over Joseph. He was a good man— good enough, at least— and had been a relatively good boyfriend to you, but he was different than everyone else and was itching for more than you were, a family and a life and shit, and you had just wanted to have fun with him, so you had broken it off with him. The breakup had initially happened a few months ago, but your friends had never been able to drag you out of your flat and to a bar until then. There was nothing to mourn, you tried to tell them. We just wanted different things and split amicably, there’s no bad blood there that I need to drink to get over. 

Around 11 o’clock or so, your phone buzzed on the bar top, and you glanced down to see a text from a number that your phone didn’t recognize, but you knew all too well. I’m lonely, it said. Would you like to come over? 

Your friends were absorbed in their conversation, so you put down your vodka soda and typed out a reply. Joe, you know that’s a bad idea. 

I moved. Do you need my new address? 

You sighed. Yeah, I do. 

There was something about Joseph that you couldn’t place, but it made him irresistible. He was magnetic, he was charismatic, he was attractive and funny and kind, he was everything, but he just wasn’t what you wanted or needed for your relationship. He wanted kids; you didn’t. That was it. He was so irresistible, though, that there was no question about the fact that you would wreck your plans to see him. 

“Hey, I gotta go,” you told your friends, and they all booed and awed and asked what was going on. 

“Wait,” one of your friends started. “Are you going to see Joe?”

You scoffed, in a way that you hoped conveyed how crazy you thought that was. “No,” you said. “My social battery just ran out all of the sudden. Long day at work, and I’ve got another long one tomorrow and… You know how it is.” 

“Alright,” your friend said with a pout. “Be safe, alright? Let us know when you get home.” 

You agreed and, with a few hugs and kisses, you went on your way. Joseph had texted you his new address and you plugged it into your Uber app, and, the whole ride there, your leg was jiggling and you were nervous. It was just Joe, it wasn’t like you were going to meet some random guy you met online (although Joe had started out as some random Hinge match). You had dated him for two years, you knew him, so why were you nervous? 

He was grinning at you when you reached his place on the second floor, an easy sort of smile that you remembered loving. “Hi,” he said softly, reaching out for you, and you took his hands, smiling back at him. 

“Hey,” you said. “So, this is your new place, right?”

“Yeah,” Joseph said with a shrug. “It’s not much, but it’s alright.” 

You stepped inside and set down your bag next to the door, along with your jacket and shoes, and you examined the front room. The new flat was definitely smaller than the one you had shared together, the kitchen all smushed up next to the den, with the smallest hallway leading down to the bathroom and bedroom, and you settled on the couch easily. “I like it,” you said, your eyes going to his bookcase next to his television. A biography of Caracalla sat open, and you shook your head. “It’s cute. Very you.” 

“Thank you, love,” Joseph said. He sat down beside you and put his arm along the back of the couch behind you, and you inched a little closer to him. 

“Isn’t it a little… Silly?” you started, and you began to chew on your lip. 

“What is?” Joseph asked. 

“This dumb little dance we have to do,” you said. “Like we both don’t know why I’m here. We have to pretend, like, ‘Oh, I like your apartment’, ‘Oh, how have you been’, y’know?” 

“Well, we don’t have to pretend,” Joseph said. “We can just… Get started.”

“Yeah,” you mumbled. “But I don’t wanna, like, just come over and fuck and leave.”

“So…” Joseph started. “You want genuine small talk?”

You shrugged. “I guess,” you said. “How have you been?”

“Honestly,” Joseph started. “Pretty bad. I’m so used to coming home and having you here, I find myself so lonely and bored and… I don’t know. It’s been a few months, I thought I’d get over… Whatever this is.”

“That’s alright,” you said. “I’ve been missing you a lot too. I miss our old apartment… The bathtub was so nice and big.” 

“Yeah,” Joseph chuckled. “You remember when we took a bubble bath together and lit candles? That was nice.”

“Yeah,” you agreed wistfully. It went quiet then, both of you trying to avoid the obvious, and you finally sighed. “This is a bad idea, right?” 

“Probably,” Joseph said. You looked over at him to find him already looking at you with those damned chocolate puppy eyes, and you tilted your head a bit, your eyes lingering on his lips. That’s something that you missed about him; he was a damn good kisser. 

“Fuck it, it’s fine,” you said quickly, and you leaned in, pressing your lips to his. His arm around your shoulders dragged you close to him, and he kissed you back, letting his lips mold against yours. You moaned softly, taking in the familiar taste of him, and you shuffled to sit across his lap. His hands went to their usual spots in the back pockets of your jeans, squeezing and kneading your ass as his tongue slipped inside your mouth, and you raked your fingers through his hair. You don’t remember him doing his hair across his forehead like this the last time you saw him, but maybe he did, but it really didn’t matter. He was hot as fuck, and he wanted you. 

“Fuck,” Joseph whispered as he broke the kiss. His focus went to your smooth neck, kissing and lightly sucking and making you moan again, and his hands drifted out of your back pockets and went to the front of your pants, popping the button open with ease. “Pretty girl…” he mumbled, and you giggled as he started to edge your pants down. The angle was awkward, definitely, and you shuffled to stand up and take down your pants. Joseph dipped down on the couch a little to pull off his sweatpants (grey, soft, the kind you once told him make his dick look good), and he discarded them to the side as you straddled one of his big thighs. This was always one of his favorite things, having you ride his thigh, and he looked gleeful when he realized that that’s what you were doing. “Oh, yeah?” he asked, and you smiled, flexing your hips down and starting to drag yourself along his hard thigh. 

“I remember you liked this,” you told him, and Joseph’s throat bobbed as he swallowed thickly, letting his head fall back as you started up a rhythm, letting yourself glide along his leg. He mumbled and cursed, his big hands falling to your hips, but he didn’t control you; he was just holding you, feeling you, loving on you. 

“I do,” he mumbled. “God… Yes, sweet girl, just like that.” 

You whimpered as your clit brushed your stretched panties, and Joseph looked up, a sly smile on his lips. You loved when he watched you, and you made sure to move your body smoothly— all the better of a show for him. “Yeah,” he mumbled, biting his plush bottom lip. “That feel good?” 

You hummed out a positive sound, digging your fingernails into his shoulders through his jumper. “God, Joey,” you sighed, and you lilted your head to watch him as his eyelashes fluttered and he sighed with you. "Missed you."

"I missed this too," Joseph said. "Take off your panties, I wanna feel you."

You couldn't help but oblige him, and you lifted yourself from his leg and stripped off your modest underwear (you weren't exactly thinking ahead when you got dressed to go out, and you certainly weren't expecting Joe to text you). The feel of his warm skin on your pussy made your stomach swim with butterflies, and you put your hands on the back of his neck, just at where the curls ended. God, those curls. You pulled him into a kiss and moaned into his mouth, and you tugged on his curls to make him whine.

"Don't tease me, baby," he told you in a low voice, and you smiled and continued on your path, absolutely set on teasing him now. Your hips slowed, and you nestled your mouth right in the crook of his neck, setting soft kisses on his skin. "Oh, fuck, you're an evil woman, did you know that?"

"Yeah, well," you shrugged noncommittally, and Joe grabbed you around your waist and pulled you off of him. Roughly— rougher than usual?— he pushed you down onto the couch, and he settled himself on top of you, his thick thighs caging you in. You watched greedily as he righted himself and stripped off his jumper, exposing the little soft hairs on his chest; now, without the baggy jumper, you could fully see his hardening cock, rising to lay against his tummy.

"Like what you see?" Joe chuckled lightly, and you realized just how hard you had been staring at him.

"How could I not?" you asked. You reached out for his cock, taking his length in your hand, and you stroked him easily, base to tip, squeezing when you got closer to his balls— just the way he liked. He hissed in a sharp breath through his teeth as his eyes grew three times their size, and you smiled.

"Thought you'd've forgotten about that," Joe laughed breathlessly, and he edged back on the couch, aligning his hips with yours. Apparently, it seemed as if speed was the name of the game tonight, and it almost hurt your heart to think that he just wanted to hook up with you. You knew that coming to his place wouldn't end with a reconfession of love and for him begging for you to stay, but it stung to know that he was just trying to get you out as quickly as possible.

"I could never forget," you said, hoping that he could see through your words and see your teary eyes, hear your thick throat, feel your loss. You loved him, and the breakup hurt, but it was better being apart. But was it really?

"I wouldn't want you to," Joe told you, and he pursed his lips for a moment before he spit down onto your pussy. "You think I can ever forget you?"

You lined up the head of his cock with your hole, watching as he throbbed in your hand, and he sank his hips forward. The feel of the stretch had you gasping, and you moaned as he slid inside you, nestling perfectly. "Hey," Joe said firmly, and you looked up from the show to see him earnestly staring down at you, his eyes... Wet? Tearful? "You don't think I could ever forget you, do you?" he asked, and you bit the inside of your cheek.

"Not now, Joe," you mumbled.

"Yes, now," Joe insisted.

"You're inside me," you protested, and Joe gathered you in his arms, holding you tightly as he began to fuck you. The pleasure made your breath hitch, and Joe buried his face in your neck, kissing the slender column of your throat.

"We can talk and fuck at the same time," Joe said. "God knows we've done worse and fucked at the same time."

"But talk about this?" you asked. "Joey—"

"I can't sleep without you," he said softly. "Every time I wake up alone, my first thought is that you're using the toilet and that you'll be right back. I can hardly relax without your feet in your side... You really did take up the whole of the bed."

"Joe—" you started again, but he shook his head, his curls thwipping you in the face.

"And I can't eat," he continued. "I miss your cooking, and what's the point of eating anyway if you're not gonna steal bits of it off my plate?"

"Don't say that," you frowned. You were still acutely aware of his cock inside you, ebbing and flowing with the movement of your bodies, but, slowly, you came to realize exactly what this was. Maybe this was a reconfession of love. Maybe he would beg for you to stay. Maybe he was more than lonely tonight, and was just rushing the sex to get to the part where he asked you to come back to him. "That's not... Fair. I'm doing better without you."

"What a lie," Joe chuckled mirthlessly. "You're not wearing your favorite going-out dress, you're not even wearing mascara. You didn't want to leave the house tonight, but you did. Why?"

"My friends dragged me out," you said.

"Exactly," Joe said. "You'd rather stay home and rot in bed, because you're just as miserable without me as I am without you. Admit it, we were so good together, don't you want that again?"

"Joe," you started. "We broke up because you wanted kids, and I didn't. That's not something you can compromise on, that's not a conversation you can table for later. We broke up because we wanted different things, and that's okay."

"But I want you back," Joe said. "I need you back. Please, we can compromise on this. We can... Fuck, I don't know, we can get a cat. Or a puppy, or a lizard, or whatever the fuck it takes for you to come back to me."

Before you could say more, your phone buzzed in your purse on the floor just by your head, and you sighed as you reached for it, any distraction welcome. Your friend was texting you: Make it home ok?

Yeah, you answered quickly. Going to sleep. Talk tomorrow xx.

"Joe," you started. "I... I only see you as a friend now. I don't think I can return to what we had."

"That's the biggest lie you've ever said," Joe told you. "If I was just a friend, would you have come over tonight?"

"Yes!" you said. "Because I'm a good friend! You said you were lonely, and I wanted to come help—"

"Oh, God, there was an undertone, and you know that," Joe cringed. "Don't act like you didn't know exactly what this was."

"Fuck," you mumbled. "Joe, I— Can we wait until we're done fucking?"

Joe sighed and, setting his jaw, angled his hips back and pulled out. He went in search of his clothes quietly, and you did the same, and, as you were zipping up your trousers, you said, "I guess I just don't... Don't see how we can have what we had. Not now, not knowing that we want our futures to be so different."

"We don't have to have what we had," Joe said. "We can have something completely new. We can make something entirely different, entirely our own, whatever we want. Please?"

You looked up from your jeans to see him looking at you. He had shaved his facial hair down to nothing, and you frowned to look at it. "I hate the way you do your hair now," you mumbled. "And I wish you'd grow your mustache back out."

Joe shrugged. "Maybe I will," he said. "If you want me to."

"I do," you said. "And we can get a cat, but you have to do the nasty shit, cleaning up after it and everything. We can... We can get back together, if you... If you promise you'll never leave me again."

Joe stepped towards you and wrapped you in a tight embrace, and he kissed the top of your head. "Never again, love."
