Tumblr media
A night out at the circus? That was a strange offer by your friends, but you went along. Maybe years have passed by ever since you’ve been to the circus. You wondered if it was like you remembered. Your memory was vague about it, but when you and your friends parked the car, you saw the giant red tent. It was dark, but lights were shining on the red fabric from afar. A red carpet led the way to the entrance. The smell of popcorn and beer filled the space as you got closer. You and your friends were laughing about how silly it was all going to be, holding beers in your hands.
“Hey kids! Get inside quick!” a clown passed before you, shouted in a goofy voice, and squeezed his red big nose.
You threw the empty beer, got a new one, and went quickly inside. Getting inside was a sight to behold. The interior felt bigger than what you imagined from the outside. You and your friends found your places and sat down. The lights turned off and only spotlights lit the ring.
“Howdy folks! Are you ready for the show?” A clown shouted to the crowd as he was holding a comical big microphone.
“YES!” the crowd responded.
“Are you really ready? Let me hear it” The clown looked toward you and pointed, or at least it felt like it.
“YES!” the crowd shouted again.
The show was wild and funny. The clown's customs were colorful and silly. Each one had his own thing and color. One had fuzzy huge purple hair. One had huge shoes he could barely walk in. Another had a nose that covered almost half of his face. But there was one you would never forget his appearance. His face was painted all white, with a red smiley mark covering the lower part of his face, and red curls that looked like red springs, trying to bounce out of his head.
You had so much fun, that you barely noticed the pressure to pee building inside of you from those two giant cups of beer. You didn’t want to leave for the bathroom, the show was so entertaining, so you held it as much as you could. Eventually, you stood up and walked to the outside to find the toilets.
“You! The guy who’s walking outside! STOP!” you heard from the speaker, and the lights hit you.
You turned around and saw the curly clown was pointing at you. The lights washed all over you. You pointed at yourself questionably. 
“Yes you! Where are you going? We are in the middle of the show!” he asked, intending to get the crowd interested in the moment.
“I’m going to the bathroom.” you naively answered.
“Can’t you hold it to the rest of the show? You are such a baby! Isn’t he a baby people?” the clown asked the crowd, making them clap and cheer.
You turned red from embarrassment, gave him your back, and went outside. You had to pee so bad, you didn’t have time to think about what happened, not just yet. The toilets were around the tent, a bit far from the entrance. Next to it, there were the wheeled caravans of the circus crew. You could hear the crowd inside cheering and the faded voices of the clowns.
“Hey there kid, how’s it going? Have you found the bathroom yet?” said the clown with the curly hair.
He must have finished his act and went outside. He was smoking a cigar and the smoke moved around him in the light breeze. He looked at you, without the act from the show.
“No, not yet” you answered.
“It’s not polite what you did back there, only babies can’t hold and wait. You must be a baby. But you are funny, at least I can look at you and see you have The funny in ya. Ever thought about clowning? Do you want to clown around with us?” he asked as you took a big drag from his cigar, putting his lips around it, making it visible for you to see.
“What? Me as a clown? Nah, I have to take a piss, excuse me,” you said and turned away.
“You are certainly not excused.” you heard him say.
A second later, a bag was covering your head and it felt like two strong guys were holding you and dragging you somewhere. You heard a door slamming open and then closing. You don’t know how, but suddenly you were knocked out of consciousness. Sometime later, that could be moments, that could be minutes, you gained your consciousness back. You heard the crowd cheering very closely. Lights were shining into the cotton bag your head was in. You were wearing something else, something that wasn’t your clothes. You felt like you were sitting on something very thick and puffy, which seemed like between your legs as well. Maybe you wore it you thought.
“We have a surprise for you good folks! Do you remember the baby who couldn’t hold it before? Well, I’m glad to tell you that he is a baby! Our new baby clown! Give it up for the biggest baby of them all!”
Someone grabbed your shoulders, squeezed them, and pressed his head to the bag, and whispered.
“This is your birthday baby clown, the crowd is cheering for the new baby, make us proud!”
The bag was lifted from your head. You looked around, shocked. You sat in the center of the ring, in front of the cheering and going wild crowd. The lights were blinding but you could see you were wearing a comically massive white diaper and big red clown shoes. A bib with the words “big baby” was strapped around you by the purple-haired clown. A bonnet hat was strapped around your head by the clown with a big nose. You felt like crying from the humiliation.
“Awwww is baby gonna cry?” the curly clown asked, now not so serious like he was outside, but goofy and cheerful.
He took some kind of blue makeup marker and drew tears on your cheeks.
“Give it up for our crybaby people!” he made the crowd cheer even more.
He took a rolled-up carpet and unrolled it in front of you. It was a childish carpet like you see in nurseries.
“Crawl around for us baby! Let everyone see your wet diaper you needed!” gesturing you onto the carpet.
From the excitement and the commotion, you didn’t even notice you were peeing in your new diaper. Somehow the massive diaper became yellow on the front as you peed. You looked at the wet and yellow diaper, at the carpet, and the gesturing clown, and the cheering crowd. 
“Always, such, a whiny, baby. Folks our baby always wants us to pick him up! But he can crawl, I tell you he can! Cheer for him, tell him to crawl!” the clown thrilled the crowd.
“Crawl! Crawl! Crawl!”
They were cheering for you. They were cheering for the baby clown. You were it, you were the show now, give it to them. Crawl to the carpet. Crawl to the spotlight baby.

My conversation with @itsclowntime about clowning got me really inspired to write this short story. If you like clowning or being naughty thinking about it, check out his page. A side note - I used AI to visualize the story. I hope it adds to your imagination.

Hii!! Can I request something based of a scene from season 3 of obx? So basically JJ and reader have been dating for a while and reader finally tells him that she loves him and he replies with ‘thanks’ because he doesn’t know how to act with being loved and reader feels hurt and leaves him alone. They ignore each other for a couple days but both feel bad and it ends with JJ telling reader that he loves her too ?? Hope this make sense 🥹
Request: Hii! Could I request a jj x fem reader with prompts 6 "don't push me away" and 8 "you can't love me". Basically a lot of angst that leads to fluff with jj not feeling like he deserves you.
I think these requests got sent when season 3 came out...I'm so sorry anons
my taglists are here + you can send requests here at any time
Tumblr media
Late night cuddles were part of your and JJ’s night routine. It didn’t matter if you were outside in the hammock, the pull-out or in Big John’s old bedroom, he needed those cuddles to fall asleep. 
 Fingers entwined in his tousled hair, you playfully twirled a few strands around your fingers as his head rested on your chest. ‘’How do you fall asleep when I’m not here?’’ you mused softly, curiosity tinging your voice.
JJ's eyelids gently fluttered closed, his face painted with contentment as your touch traced soothing patterns. ‘’I smoke,’’ he explained, a sigh of relaxation accompanying his words as if the mere thought of your touch had already begun to lull him into a serene state. ‘’It takes me out like a light.’’ 
It wasn’t true. Nights at the chateau were fine. Your scent lingered in the sheets and on the pillow — and on the shirt you always used to sleep in. On nights where JJ had to go home — home with his father —, these nights were not so great. JJ would lay in his bed and, depending if his father had too much to drink or not, he would get a few hours of sleep or wipe the blood from wherever his fist had landed.
A comfortable silence fell in the room, joined by the occasional singing of crickets outside the window. You found them annoying at first, but you were used to it by now. It was part of the ‘sleeping over at the chateau’ experience. 
Along with the blinding morning sun. 
‘’We should go to the beach tomorrow, catch some waves.’’
JJ hummed. ‘’My board is still at my dad’s though…’’ 
‘’We could pick it up after he goes to work? He works on Wednesdays, right?’’ 
‘’Yeah,’’ he replied, snuggling deeper into your chest as sleep began to claim him. ‘’Let’s do that.’’ 
‘’JJ?’’ He hummed again. ‘’I love you.’’
You felt him stiffen on your chest as the three words left your lips, and for a moment, the world seemed to hold its breath.
‘’Eh...thanks.’’
When JJ fell into a deep sleep, you gently slipped from under him and searched for your pants and shoes. You felt bad for leaving in the middle of the night, but you couldn't wake by his side after he hurt your feelings so deeply. You weren't mad at him for not saying ‘I love you’ back. You understood if he wasn’t ready to say it back, everyone had their own pace, but his response had left a bittersweet taste in your mouth.
It was no news for anyone that JJ was an idiot and he had the tendency of blurting out something dumb when his brain goes into panic, which was probably what happened when you said the three big words. That’s why he always plays clown when things get emotional. 
Guilt filled his guts when he woke up alone in the morning. 
Truth was, JJ didn’t know how to act with being loved. No one ever told him they loved him before. No one ever made him feel like he was worthy of being loved. So he didn’t know how to react to someone telling him they love him…even when the person was the most important in his life. 
A few days later, you were walking down a street when you saw John B. and JJ coming out of the gas station. His blond hair was pushed back under a snapback, just the way you loved. He laughed at something John B. said, then his eyes crossed yours across the street. JJ completely froze. 
Your feet walked before you made the decision and you crossed the street. John B. saw you coming and eclipsed himself, going inside the store to pay for the gas, leaving you and JJ to talk. The latter tried to offer to go instead, but John B. didn’t let him. 
‘’What’s up?’’ 
‘’Really, JJ? We haven’t spoken to each other in five days, that’s all you have to say?’’ 
He looked toward the store and shrugged. 
‘’We have to talk about the other night,’’ you said, bringing up exactly what he didn’t want to talk about.
The words hung in the air for a few seconds until JJ said something. 
‘’I have no idea what you’re talking about. Like you said, it’s been five days since we saw each other.’’ 
You should have known he would play fool, but it won’t get him out of this conversation.
‘’JJ,’’ you said sternly. ‘’I know you hate talking about feelings, but we have—’’ 
‘’You can’t love me,’’ he interrupted, his voice laced with self-doubt, and his eyes filled with disbelief. ‘’I’m just some loser. I don’t deserve you or your love.’’ 
His words hurt like a knife to your heart. 
‘’Don’t say that.’’ You shook your head, reaching for him, but he stepped back. ‘’You’re not a loser, JJ. Whoever said that clearly doesn’t know you. I know you, the real you, and I love you.’’ 
‘’I don’t want you to love me.’’ 
It was at this moment John B. chose to return, forcing your and JJ’s conversation to end. You wanted to glare at the brunet, but your back was to him. Couldn’t he have stayed longer inside the store? 
‘’John B. is back. I’m gonna go.’’ JJ nodded at the twinkie, impatient to get in and drive off. 
You grabbed his arm with pleading eyes. ‘’Don't push me away.’’
‘’We really gotta go.’’ 
‘’JJ!’’
After that encounter, you decided to not go to the chateau for a while. It was more his home than yours, so you didn’t want to be in his space. If he didn’t want to talk to you, fine. No, it wasn’t fine, but what else was there to do? 
Sarah and Kiara were sad to not have you around for cookouts and boat days. They invited you for Pope’s birthday ‘party’, but you saw JJ smiling and having fun in John B.’s backyard and went back home.  
It wasn’t until the annual end of summer bonfire that you saw him again. He was talking with Kiara and Pope, probably telling them some dumb story by the way Kiara was shaking her head in disbelief. Now that you weren’t there, she was the one who had to deal with him. 
A little later into the night, you went to get a refill and bumped into JJ at the kegger. He kindly offered to fill your cup, then asked to talk to you. You followed him down the beach where the waves were crashing on the rocks, the music and voices from the party-ers fading into white noise. 
‘’I want to say I’m sorry. For pushing you away and for being a jerk to you.’’ He kicked his foot in the sand, a fidgeting habit when he’s nervous. ‘’No one ever told me they loved me before and I just— I flipped. You know how I be.’’
You hummed. No one knows him like you do. 
‘’I wasn’t mad because you didn’t say it back.’’
‘’No?’’ JJ raised his eyes to you. 
You shook your head. ‘’I could never be mad at you for that.’’ 
‘’Then why did you leave?’’  
‘’No one says ‘thanks’ after you tell them you love them!’’ 
‘’What was I supposed to say?’’
Truthfully, you didn’t know. 
A more serious expression settled on JJ’s face as he reached for your hand. ‘’I can see how that didn't land right. I’m sorry,’’ he said again. ‘’I'm a fucking idiot for not saying it back.’’

main four reacting to you coming home drunk and calling them pretty
Tumblr media
reader calling the main 4 pretty while drunk
an, OKAY BOSS 🫡🫡
Tumblr media
kenny
it is almost 2 am and you are still not home, he is so ready to put on his mysterion costume on and search the whole town for you. hearing a car pull up he jerks from the couch and look at the window, it was you barefoot holding your heels waving goodbye to your friends. he waits infront of the front door excited to greet you, the keys rattling to unlock the door followed with "shit whcih one is it" kenny sighs and open the door. "KENNYYYY" you hug him and kenny can tell that you have been partying hard, you reek of alcohol. "im not one to get mad at you for drinking but you need to control your parting habit, youre always dizzy in the morning and regret it" he lectures closing the door you still hugging him "boo buzzkil" he gives you the 😐 r u fr look and you laugh. "hmmm have i ever tell you how pretty you are, so pretty" you cup his face and observe it he blushes harddddddd. you have only called him handsome or sexy or hot so far never have anyone called him pretty, "oh yeah? im very pretty huh?" he smirks taking this chance to do smthn with you iykyk "i might be drunk but im still sober enough to know what you wanna do" with that you let go and walk to your bedroom with a smiling teasing kenny in suit. " 'm so pretty right?" the morning was hell and he wouldn't shut up about it "ugh kenny that's the third time this morning fuck yourself" you groan as you walk away from kenny with the hangover medicine with you "thats not how you talk to your pretty boyfriend" he laughs.
stan
you had texted him earlier that night saying your gonna be late "im goung tobe kate" "what" "latw" "okay". he sleeps before you come home knowing you didn't want him waiting on you and that your friends was there to take care of you. he was about to sleep but the door knob twisting and the keys desperately being pushed into the keyhole was too loud to not hear from the bedroom. he groans and gets out of bed heading towards the door. "hello stan 😊😊😊 thankyou 🥰🥰" you walk past him and wow tyou smell like alcohol, even he wasn't this bad. following you to the bedroom you lay down throwing your shoes and bag on the floor "geez y/n atleast take a shower first" he puts his hands on his waist. you lay on your side and tap the empty spot beside you signalling him to join you, despite the smell he lays down and looks at you. you stroke his hair staring at him "you're so pretty stan, maybe even prettier than me" his eyes widen at that like me??? pretty??? really??. he quickly realises you are very drunk and you probably don't mean it "okay y/n, get some sleep" he lightly push you by the shoulders to lay you down properly "no nooo im being honest, your face is so pretty, your hair black hair and your eyes fuck i could get lost in your eyes, especially your lip-" you sleep before you could say anything more and he just layed there with a blushed face. he gets up and walk over your vanity grabbing makeup remover and a cotton pad, sitting beside you removing your makeup. he stops to think what you said earlier and is so embarrassed, bro is kicking his feet squealing and covering his face rolling around. it gave him sm confident and remembers that compliment to this day.
kyle
it was around 12 pm that night, kyle was jus chilling watching movies in the living room and eating popcorn. you told him you'd be home a little late and to not wait for you, so he took this chance to enjoy some time for himself. suddenly the door knob shake violently and bangs from the door can be heard, he was so scared who the hell was it he thought, burglar? murderer? thief?. he slowly approach the door looking through to the keyhole expecting a fucking clown or smthn with a knife but it was you. he sighs and opened the door "you had me scared to death! and i thought you were coming home at 2??" your stance was pretty obvious you had gotten too drunk "my friends said i drank too much and i need to go home 😊" , well it isn't the first time, "cmon wanna watch a movie tgt?" "kyle i smell like im stans dad i need to take a shower" "but i miss you ☹️" "then shower with me pretty boy" he makes a slightly disgusted face while laughing lightly but stop when he remembered your words "pretty?" "mhm!" you nod your head repeatly and make you way upstairs, his cheeks were a tint of pink smiling at the compliment, you stop midway and look back at him. he wasn't wearing his hat and he rarely takes them off that was what made him so pretty, his pretty curls. you walk back to him getting reallllyyyyy close staring at him, his cheeks turning a a darker shade of pink avoiding eyecontact "uhh" "you look so pretty, should take your hat off more often" you kiss his cheek and continue your way upstairs. he just stares at the stairs holding his cheek "pretty?" he mumbled and walk his way to the couch sitting on the couch "pretty .." he loves it sm when you call him pretty and you know it so you call him pretty more often.
cartman
2 am. you aren't home yet and cartman is worried for his life, i mean he is pacing around the living room wondering why you aren't home. then he heard the door open and immediately jump on the couch turning on the tv, "oh hey, ur late not, that i was waiting for you" he says glancing at you, by how you were wobbling around it was kinda obvious you were drunk. you look at him smiling and walking over to him with wide arms "CARTMANNN HELLOOOO" you hug him and he loves it smsmsmsmsm but ofc he hides it "ew what do you want" you hop on the couch right beside him laying your head on him, he doesn't push you off despite the disgusted face you made. "mm your so mean ☹️" you make pouty lips at him, you cup his face pulling it close to you "your are so pretty you know that? i love you so much" then you hug him so tight he swears he can't breath. boy just sat there with a 😯 face on. since you were drunk you weren't gonna remember this so he decides to play along "i think yr prettier though" "NO. YOU ARE 🤨" you argued "its definitely you" "YOU CLEAFLY ARE PRETTIER IN OUR RELATIONSHIP 😒😒" "WELL I SAY OTHERWISE" you two literally argue like kids on who is prettier. you both agree that you both are equally pretty. the next morning you remember vividly what happened "sooo im pretty huh?" "i never said that" "you said that last night" "no stop being delusional thats gay".

birthday countdown 2024, day 7: bodyswap snippet
it's my birthday next week! and while i'd love to have a new fic to share with you on the day, the fact is i don't have anything ready to post, unless you count the short little notfics i throw out now and then—and if i shine one of those up, it's more of a present for my ao3 subscribers than for y'all.
but i do have a lot of works in progress, so i thought i'd share a couple snippets from my wips here on tumblr!
today, i have for you a bit of mihawk pov from the shuggy bodyswap fic, tentatively titled let's exchange the experience:
Mihawk set the flat of Yoru under Buggy’s chin and lifted, and this pressure he could not use his powers to get away from.  He raised his head up, staring at Mihawk without a trace of fear in his eyes.  He was defiant, and furious, and… amused? Mihawk knew those eyes. Those weren’t Buggy the Clown’s eyes.
(about 1k below the cut)
Bad enough to be associated with Buggy the Clown on paper.  Worse still for the posters, newspapers, and gossip to suggest he was subordinate to that clown.  And to be surrounded by his garish aesthetic at every turn—well, that was beyond words.  It was too awful to be described.  But somehow, being forced to participate in that ridiculous treasure hunt… that was the worst thing yet.
Fortunately, his co-conspirator in this little operation seemed to be fully in agreement with Mihawk.  It was with no small amount of pleasure that he watched Crocodile shove the clown face-first into the carpet, the heel of his shoe grinding down on Buggy’s skull and forcing his nose down and out of sight.
Mihawk briefly fantasized about leaving them like this, about smothering the thorn in his side until it was no longer his problem.  Alas, it wasn’t to be.  As trying as Buggy was—and he was very, very trying—he did have his uses.  When Crocodile lifted his leg to get a better angle for the next round of attacks, Mihawk interceded.
“Remember,” he said, the blade of Yoru all that separated Crocodile’s ire from Buggy’s body, “he still has a purpose to serve.”
Crocodile chewed on his cigar furiously for a moment. “You sure about that?” he asked.  They could still hear the ecstatic cheering echoing from across the island; Buggy’s loyal followers, inspired by his ridiculous declaration of intent to acquire the One Piece.  Almost certainly the biggest waste of time and money Buggy could have thought of for Cross Guild—and with the numbers on his side, there was no way they were getting out of it.  “If I haven’t reached my limit by now, I don’t know where it is.”
“We’ll know when he’s outlived his usefulness,” Mihawk said, staring Crocodile in the eye, “when both of us are too furious to hold back.”
“’Ppreciate… your restraint…” Buggy mumbled around a mouthful of bloody carpet, struggling to get to his knees.
Mihawk had Yoru’s edge against his neck in an instant.  “Don’t sass me, clown,” he said, walking a slow circle around him, until he was at Buggy’s back and by Crocodile’s side.  “I’m not advocating for your life here—just against your death.”
“The nuances are beyond his comprehension, I suspect,” Crocodile muttered under his breath, giving one last kick to the clown that knocked him flat on his stomach again.  “But you’re right,” he said, acknowledging Mihawk’s point.  “It’s too early to give in to such petty impulses.  And besides… if I’m to have any hope of my plans coming to fruition, this childish little venture may provide a decent smokescreen.”
Buggy made another muffled comment, but he seemed to have given up on trying to stand.  His shoulders shook as he sniffled—ugh, was he going to start crying again?  The emotionality repulsed Mihawk, but he wasn’t about to withdraw.  Not until he was certain the clown had conceded—and what had become clear today was that, so long as he was making smart comments, he hadn’t fully given up.  Buggy’s shoulders went stiff, then spasmed, and Mihawk realized he’d given the clown too much credit.  It was only a sneeze.
On the far side of the room, the former senior officers of Buggy’s Delivery, now occupying reduced positions in Cross Guild, went silent.  They exchanged indecipherable looks, then turned as one to stare at Buggy.
Buggy pushed himself up on his elbows, saying, “Oh, ow, that smarts.  Did things really need to come to this?  Surely…” He turned his head and froze, that bulbous nose not half an inch from Yoru’s blade.  His eyes flicked up to meet Mihawk’s, and there was something wrong about them.  “Surely, Hawkeyes, we could have come to some kind of an understanding without things getting… violent.”
“You’re the one undermining the understanding we already had in place, clown,” Crocodile griped, stepping forward and squatting down to talk to Buggy on his level.  Raising his golden hook to press against Buggy’s cheek, he slid it back into his hair and got the hook thoroughly tangled there.  He yanked, to pull Buggy’s head back, and said, “How quickly you forget—” before his words fell away.
Because Buggy’s head had not been pulled back; his hair was still tangled around Crocodile’s hook, but it was a free-floating piece, chopped free by Buggy’s Devil Fruit powers.  And his eyes…
Mihawk set the flat of Yoru under Buggy’s chin and lifted, and this pressure he could not use his powers to get away from.  He raised his head up, staring at Mihawk without a trace of fear in his eyes.  He was defiant, and furious, and… amused?
Mihawk knew those eyes.
Those weren’t Buggy the Clown’s eyes.
“I was wrong,” he said to Crocodile, grabbing him by the shoulder and pulling him away from the impossible thing before them.  “You should have killed him.”
“Oh?”  Crocodile glanced between Mihawk and the blue-haired man on the floor.  “Why the change of heart, Hawkeyes?”
“That isn’t Buggy the Clown,” he said.
They watched as the man carefully got to his knees and turned to face them.  He sat before Mihawk and Crocodile in a casual, sprawling posture that still managed to radiate unbelievable power.  His jaw shifted, and without breaking eye contact he spat out a broken tooth.  “Gee,” the man with Red-Haired Shanks’ fearless eyes asked, voice almost cheery, “what gave me away?”

I really like Art
Art, little girl and reader having a family outing
So this one is just gonna be some good old wholesome family time, no killing in this one. I believe that I called the young girl Annie in the last one I did for art, so her name will be Annie from here on out until she is given a cannon name. Also, this will probably just be a little drabble for now lol.
Creds to @strangergraphics for the dividers (I keep forgetting to, and I am so sorry)
A Day Out
Tumblr media
Art, Annie and Reader don't go out much when they aren't killing or stalking prey. Reader, and Art basically became Annie's parents when they found her, opting to take care of her. Today was the aniversery of the day that Art and Reader found Annie, so Reader decided to take them to the mall, helping them look, kinda, normal so the cops wouldn't get called.
After everyone was dressed and ready, they got in the car, Art driving, and pulled out. Annie was in the back, mimicking the voices of the people on the radio while Reader and Art were in the front seat, Art with one of his hands resting on their thigh, and Reader with a sketchbook in their lap, sketching Art's face. Art tapped your thigh twice, prompting you to look up. A smile grew on Art's face as some cops waves y'all past a wreck, it didn't look like anyone survived. Reader shook their head softly, a small smile growing on their face as they looked back down at their book.
"Take a left up here." They said after looking up at Art to take in more details of his face and noticing the confused look he had.
He looked aver at them and smiled again, nodding and taking a left. Soon enough, we pulled up to the mall and began heading in, Art and Annie holding hands and skipping up towards the doors. Reader looked down at their phone for a few moments, but quickly heard shoes skidding across the ground. They quickly looked up, seeing Art sitting on the ground and Annie falling with him. Reader shook their head and began getting closer, helping Annie first, then Art.
"I told you not to wear those shoes with those pants." Reader said, gesturing to his clown like shoes. He had refused to put any other pair on despite wearing some baggy jeans that were a bit too long for his legs. He mimed giggling and gave a sheepish shrug, allowing you to dust him off.
Reader, Art, and Annie had a wonderful day at the mall. Raiding the food court, causing a bit of mayhem, keeping Annie away from the back of Spencer's. It was an amazing day, and none of them could wait to do it again.

Hope you enjoyed! :)

Recap, thoughts, summary of the show. Spoilers and opinions abound!

Tumblr media
(I think) show opens with two figures on stage in a sleepy embrace, Henry and Douglas, who share a resemblance to Sufjan Stevens and Evans Richardson. Henry disengages and gets his shoes, jacket, and bag and prepares to leave the freshly awoken Douglas.
From there he journeys alone from NYC to Illinois, we see structures relating to the train lines give way to a field that he makes his way through. Here we see him write in his journal (one of many in the show with different colors and winged insects on them) and he is surrounded by three stars. As he writes the stars intermittently take the forms of:
Carl, Henry's childhood best friend and first love.
Shelby, Henry's childhood best friend and Carl's first love.
Douglas, Henry's first adult love whom he doesn't feel deserving of.
This is where my memory may be failing me because I'm not 100% sure it doesn't start with the stars>sleeping>journey and not sleeping>stars>journey but I forgot to write this down that night so here we are two weeks later and my brain is scrambled
From here we see Henry joined in the field by a community of friends as they make a campfire and share the night together. They try to get him to tell his story but he isn't ready. Instead they take their turns.
First up is Jacksonville. Absolute powerful number that got an applause break before the piece was even finished. Has the primary storyteller, Morgan, sharing the stage in a stunning give and take with a tap dancer. Such a high note for the show I felt bad that the other stories kind of had to pale in comparison. From this point on Morgan drew my attention during any other group piece, they were absolutely magnetic.
Next is Zombies! The best bits of this were the physicality of the dancers to portray the zombies or the running/fighting them off. The zombies are masked and costumed as politicians and business man, telling a really cool story. At one point they literally hold up signs with their names which felt a bit on the nose but can for sure be refined in future versions. The grief/horror/exhaustion of the story teller, Jo Daviess, was really amazing.
Next is John Wayne Gacy, Jr. told by Wayne, a murder balladeer, and as said in the program guide, is about "the damning cycle of exclusion borne of outcasts forced to sympathize with monsters". That I feel is the heart of the performance... and if I hadn't read it before hand I'm not sure it would have come through the dance alone. By the nature of the story there is a grotesque energy with the dancers wearing sailor collars to let us know they're his child victims, and JWG is wearing a clown mask and completely see through tulle (like you can see the seams in the underwear beneath it) vaguely in the shape of a clown costume. There is no sexual element to the movements, they start vaguely playful and become increasingly violent as he picks off his victims. At the end the storyteller is shaken clearly by the "and in my best behavior/ I am really just like him" and needs to be calmed by his friends at the fire.
On the lightest note is the story of The Man of Metropolis by the story teller Clark (of course haha). A fun number with some amazing physicality by Clark who, at least on the opening night, was played by a dancer that was very tall but exuded a lightness and joyous energy in his performance. A bit gimmicky but cute. First he reveals a Superman shirt, then the rest of the dancers do, and they use a picnic blanket to make a cape for him. It felt like the dancing lagged a bit with the singing taking center stage as it went on, which I'm not mad about, the music and vocals were fucking amazing. I'm hoping against hope for a cast recording 🥲
This begins Act II, Henry's story! We see the field drop away to Small Town Middle of Nowhere where the young Henry, Carl, and Shelby play around and dance together. There's a fun bit where they're like balancing on things and jumping around. Henry is drawn to Carl but Carl can't look away from Shelby when she appears. The guys plan a road trip to NYC (Carl spray paints it on to the stage settings board in real time) but Shelby stays behind.
Henry has a run in with Douglas, and kudos to the dancers for portraying that immediate connection, as Carl is on the phone back home. He needs to go back for Shelby but Henry stays to see through his potential with Douglas. It's clear this is the last time Henry ever saw Carl.
Carl goes back and him and Shelby dance to Casimir Pulaski Day. As the song goes on her illness weakens her so Carl supports her more, but in doing so she pushes him away, until eventually she is being pulled into the afterlife. Very moving, the dancer for Shelby was phenomenal in portraying the grief and anger of being betrayed by your own body.
As Carl struggles with the loss we see Henry struggling with his decision to stay. This leads into Palisades where we see his relationship with Douglas flourishing. The beauty of it and the inspiration being pulled from Sufjans love for his own partner brought a lot of the audience to tears, sniffles heard all through the quiet moments. We see Henry getting ghostly glimpses of Carl (memory? spiritual?) as he falls into a depression and self harm. Douglas joins him and they sway and breathe together in a way that has me choking up just thinking of it. Their love was potent as was Henry's doubt that he deserved to be loved.
The spectre of Carl makes himself clear to Henry and passes right by through him at several points. The play by play of this bit is slightly lost to me as to when Henry knows what happens, if he knows before the audience, etc. This brings us to The Seer's Tower. Carl is distraught and is led by a whim, portrayed as a dancer in all black, up to the scaffolding above the stage. One by one, with decreasing time between them, we see dancers in all black go up to Carl, float their hand above his as if connected by an invisible tether, and then fall off the edge of the tower to the back of the stage. There is something so curious and questioning about the way Carl plays the suicidal ideation that felt very real to me and makes the bodies falling chilling. Carl takes his own leap, the stars reappear, and we're back to the beginning of the play
Henry wakes up cradled with Douglas and slips away to his journey. We see his travel again, the campfire, and his friends reacting to the vulnerability of the story he has lived. This time though we also see Douglas has made the trip as well and makes his way through the field to the campfire. The community rejoices in their connection and we get fantastic final dance numbers as a group as well as with Henry and Douglas, with Henry made lighter by having told his story. The final shot is Henry handing a book to the audience.
Opinions! Notes! Things I might forget if I don't make this list!
● Went to the opening night of the Park Ave Armory show, March 7th 2024. Pretty good mix of Sufjan fans and Very Fancy NYC theater people that had come to support the show.
● To match the journals in the show the show program covers are bold covers with a moth or butterfly split by the seam of the book (half on each cover). Different colors/insect versions were laid out on the seats. I got a red one with (I think) a tiger moth.
● The program contains journal entries by Henry written by Jackie Sibblies Drury with some Sufjan lyrics mixed in. The end of the program is blank lined pages.
● The vocalists were above and beyond. Absolutely killed it. Made the songs their own in a way I didn't think possible. I really hope there is an album recording for the show now that it's going to Broadway.
● I can not overstate how amazing the energy of the show is, completely contagious in the room. I know a filmed version is unlikely beyond a bootleg but PLEASE it is so inspiring and I'm not at a place where I can draw a dance from memory. I was itching to sketch the entire time.
● The only bits that took me out of the show even a little were the cheesy kind of heavy handed bits that dragged on. The "now YOU write your story" ending is a bit much but the show earns it so 🤷 I won't say it works for me but I don't mind it.
● I would love to see some different costume choices in the story bits. Either more ramshackle costumes pulled together with the camping equipment or fully realized costumes. Having the founding father zombies both have the full face masks but also just be wearing suit jackets they pulled over their head like Beavis and Butthead is a choice that I don't agree with. I was hoping the move to Broadway might net more attention to costuming, but the turnaround is so quick that I'm doubtful. Not enough to ruin the stories but definitely the weakest aspect in a way that lessened the less powerful stories.
● I really can't overstate how electric and magical the Jacksonville performance was. Much smarter people have captured the vibe and explanation of the original song in regards to the exploration of history and ancestry. I can not put it into words but the feeling was communicated so cleanly.

I see a lot of folks noting the things Ted Lasso has in common with Sleepless in Seattle after Ted said it's the superior Nora Ephron film.
And, yup, I did a rewatch of the film (it's one of my favorites) and took notes too just like a lot of you lol.
There are the obvious things of course. The whole soulmatey-destiny-cosmic-forces vibe, signs (that the heroine is a skeptic of), a focus on planes and boats, an Oklahoma reference, Dr. Fieldstone (who begs people to just talk to each other and admit their feelings). There are Wizard of Oz nods too: Somewhere Over the Rainbow plays after the first radio show, when Annie hears Sam for the first time, Annie and Walter's dinner at the Rainbow Room, Sam mentioning growing a new heart, the reference to a friend named Glenda.
But being the tedbecca clown and yoga enthusiast I am (*proudly adjusts clown wig before stretching*), here are a few other things I noticed:
When Victoria is traveling, she offers to bring Noah a snow globe from the place she's visiting.
The quote: "What we think of as fate is just two neuroses knowing that they are a perfect match." "Y'all's baggage just matches right up, don't it?"
When Annie stops at the diner, she orders tea.
Jonah's Seattle Mariners hat matches the believe colors, and (I know but I stretched before this reach) at the end of the movie, when Sam and Annie hold hands for the first time, he's wearing a yellow jacket and her coat is blue.
And, my favorite (I honestly gasped), the host who seats Sam and Victoria when they first meet for dinner is named...Derick.
Now for my Affair notes:
Sleepless in Seattle paid homage to An Affair to Remember, so let's think about that movie in relation to Ted Lasso, too.
(Before I really dig in, we all know from both movies about the Empire State Building and February 14, but do you remember the teaser trailer for this season was dropped on Valentines' Day?)
Now, in Nora Ephron's Sleepless, the movie and especially the ending of Affair was touted as the most romantic thing ever.
To summarize it: The heroine (Terry) and hero (Nickie) meet while they're involved with others and take a quick "friends to lovers" journey. They realize their feelings and vow to resolve the issues keeping them apart (relationships, careers), and then meet in six months at the top of the Empire State Building. When that day comes, Terry's hit by a cab while rushing to meet Nickie...and Nickie waits in vain in the rain and thunder and lightning until he gives up, thinking she doesn't love him. She won't tell him about the accident because it left her unable to walk. Nickie visits Terry in her apartment and is just about to leave forever when he sees one of his paintings (that his agent gave to a woman in a wheelchair) and realizes what happened. Love and happiness ensues.
So:
-Ted and Rebecca aren't involved with others when they meet, but they are very hung up on their exes, and they have to work through their issues before they're ready to be in a relationship with someone.
-There's been debate for a while in the general Ted Lasso fandom about the show foreshadowing a car accident. Ted even almost steps in front of a car a few times.
-Rebecca's "thunder and lighting" haven't happened yet.
-Ted's not a painter like Nickie, but the Hockney drawing that Rupert gave Rebecca is important to her journey. And this show likes parallels, so I've been thinking about how a drawing/painting/piece of artwork involving Ted might play a part in an eventual tedbecca. I've wondered if he might get her a copy of one of Hockney's lightning prints because he knows she likes the artist.
I don't know.
I'm not thinking Ted and Rebecca will vow to meet at the top of the Empire State Building or anything like that. But I have long thought any revelation of feelings between Ted and Rebecca would be in the very ending of the show, just like in Sleepless in Seattle.
(*puts on clown shoes*)
Now I'm fully into the idea that a car accident, thunder and lightning, and possibly a painting...all in homage to An Affair to Remember...will play a part in the realization of feelings and ensuing confession.

Giving you even more hot takes for an "I told you so" moments, or opportunities for you to dress me in a clown costume:
Application 5: Àrtîstê
*Sigh* I’m sorry, but I cannot take this man seriously. I just know he makes those cringey POV tiktoks. You know, where he’s like nodding into the camera while biting his thumb and trying to seduce me with a lewk, but it just makes me wanna run far far away. Like, please, don’t embarrass yourself, babes. Anyways, ahem, the boy’s living in a pink world with unicorns and rainbows and roses and romance. “I made her a candlelit dinner🥺” and “you can’t measure romance😮‍💨” and “I look for love everywhere I go🥰”, like bb no. For those who says he’s giving Will - they’re both artistic, sure, but Will was at least aware of who they are and what the world is like, aka “I’m an artist but I do work on the side because I can’t pay the bills”. This guy? No. He’s yet to have that revelation. But I’m not saying he can’t change…
Application 6: Vampire DJ
She is a firecracker, a bit impulsive. She’s busy all the time, running around doing her errands and working a lot. I bet she heard all these “but you’re a DJ, it’s not a real job” comments and at first she tried to fight them, but at this point she just kinda lets it slide. That’s probably why her relationships don’t work out - they feel like she doesn’t put in enough effort, maybe she’s always late or forgets important dates, but people don’t really put themselves in her shoes either. Again, she’s impulsive, acts before she thinks, says things she doesn’t mean. She said it herself, she pretends she doesn’t care, but cares a lot. She masks her feelings with jokes. Says she’s okay being alone, but desperately craves something real, and so far it hasn’t worked out. Been burned in the past and distanced herself emotionally from getting attached, but is ready to give it another try. She’s one of those people who seem very lighthearted and chill on the surface, but are so messed up deep inside.
Application 7: Squirrel Chaser
Not gonna lie, he seems like a sweetheart. Pure heart, shy, gentle. Socially anxious and awkward, even though he doesn’t look like it to others around him, and certainly not when he’s dancing. In fact, that’s probably the only time he actually feels content and confident - when he dances. The chances that he’s lying on his application are slim - I can totally pick up on the “level-headed chill guy” vibes in all his responses, so I bet he’s at least honest (and loyal;)). But he’s not without his vices: he’s not the one to go all in, he’s a bit scared of big feelings, will definitely hold out until he’s 100% sure it’s real, but how will he ever know if he doesn’t really give it a chance? He’s a slowburn me thinks. I will warn you though, he could either be Bobby-sweetheart OR Alfie-sweetheart (aka wolf in sheep’s clothing).
And that is all we have - thank you for indulging me! These are just my opinions of course. I could be right, but I could also be very wrong - take it with a grain of salt:)
Part 1 in case you missed it😉

An Unlikely Duet Ch1~ Link to prologue below!
“Everyone ready? Final maintenance checks in five.” Quinn shouted offhandedly as the bots were getting their various acts ready for the show. Stagehands bustled this way and that in various costumes of their choice and excitement was buzzing in the air. Star Palace’s “Somewhat-Spooky Halloween Variety Show” was one of the park's better attractions and this was their first performance of the fall, as well as Kyonia’s first experience with the show. Speaking of… “Sorry I’m late!” Kyonia chimed entering through the hidden stage exit. They had on a white maidens blouse with trumpet sleeves, a front-laced leather waist corset that had silver buttons, and thin leather straps that came over their shoulders, in the front it formed a pentacle shape where hanged an eclipsed moon trinquet with a silver Celtic Triquetra in the dark center. They wore brown leggings and an ombré green to purple, high low, draped side sarong ruffle skirt, decorated with a leather belt, a small hanging bag attached to said belt, a hilted dagger and a starry aurora borealis looking scarf. “I had to sit the little ones down somewhere where the animals could stay, and well…you know how that is.” They explained adjusting their hat, it was a leather witches hat that somewhat resembled the house sorting hat from Harry Potter in shape. “That’s fine we were just getting ready for the show!” Quinn exclaimed as he turned to face Kyonia. The Man was dressed in a 50’s-esque black show suit adorned with a white carnation boutonniere, holding a black cane and to top it all off a black velvetine top hat. “Woah” Kyonia exclaimed; a bit taken aback by the whole display. “Do you like it? I sewed the whole thing myself! Well except for the tap shoes. Sure did take a while though.” Quinn stated, showing off his handiwork with a heel click. Kyonia let out a soft giggle as they brushed past him to take a final look at the show schedule posted up on the wall. They couldn't help but feel a bit nervous as the sound of people bustling to fill the amphitheater seats began to settle down; the show would be starting soon. Mirage would do their diabolo performance which would transition into a comedy bit with Zavy, before he did his contortion act and finally teamed up with Fairy Floss for the trapeze Finalee, where they would all take a bow. “Nervous?” Quinn questioned snapping Kyn out of their own head. “A little, I mean I know we aren't the best funded park out there so this is a big night.” Kyonia admitted making their way over to where the cast should have been meeting up for maintenance checks, but so far looked pretty barren. “Where are..” “The cast? Great question.” Quinn interrupted before following suit. As if on cue Fairy floss lowered herself down from the rafters. Not much had to be changed for her costume, it was simple but elegant. Her once cotton-candied colored tulle had been replaced with a gorgeous pearlescent silver and black spiderweb lace; threaded with translucent plastic beads meant to mimic dewdrops, and her hair was now ornamented with many faux-jeweled spider berets along with itsy-bitsy spiders painted along her eyeliner. “Y’all just about ready to get this show on the road?” Fairy exclaimed motioning toward the pair. “Yup as soon as we get these checks done!” Quinn piped up grabbing his mobile tool bag. “Well look who’s dressed up all spiffy! You a magician or somethin? Fairy inquired. Quinn rolled his eyes at this before mentioning “I’m Fred Astaire actually. He was a tap dancer.” Kyonia maneuvered around Quinn who was now adjusting Fairy. When suddenly, they saw a movement out of the corner of their eye~

In the Blink of an Eye - 6
Avengers Age of Ultron | Quicksilver x Female Reader Fan-fiction.
*WARNING SPOILERS*
Contains strong language, sexual references and mentions of death.
741 words
CHAPTER 6
I flung open the door to my room and kicked off my shoes, walked into the bathroom and locked the door. I stripped out of my dirty clothes and hopped in the shower. I let out a sigh as the hot water hit my back, relaxing me after a stressful day hard at work. I finished showering after what was probably half an hour, and got ready for dinner. 
Quite soon I was completely ready, and I still had some time before I had to be downstairs. I flopped onto the bed and just lay there for a few seconds, thinking about everything that had happened to me over the past few days. I was lost in thought, and then a loud knock at the door made me jump, bringing me back to reality.
I strolled over to the door and opened it, revealing none other than Hawkeye himself.
"Hi Clint," I said.
"Hi y/n. I just wanted to say that you did a great job at training today."
"Oh, thank you."
"No problem. I actually have something for you."
Immediately, I was incredibly curious as to what it might be, "Oh really? Okay."
"Yeah. This is for you." 
From behind his back he produced a long, black bow, and placed it gently in my arms.
"Wow, you didn't have to-"
"I know. I just saw what a good archer you are and I thought you'd like it."
"I do. I really do. Thank you so much," I smiled widely at him.
"You're welcome," he chuckled, "You can bring it to training tomorrow."
"I will. Thank you."
"See you at dinner," he nodded, and then walked away down the hall.
I shut the door and looked at the bow for a minute, admiring it, and then placing it away in the cupboard safely. No sooner had I done this than there was another knock on the door. 
I frowned, wondering who it could be this time, but nonetheless, opened the door to greet whoever was waiting on the other side.
"Uh, hi y/n."
It was Pietro, standing there rubbing the back of his neck with an awkward smile plastered on his face.
"Hey Pietro," I smiled, genuinely happy to see him.
"I was just curious to see if you might want to walk with me to dinner?" he raised his voice at the end, as if he was scared I might slam the door in his face.
"Yeah, sure. I would like that," I said softly, giving him a goofy grin.
He breathed a sigh of relief and cracked a smile, so that we were both standing there smiling like idiots in the hallway. I snapped out of my daze and turned to close the door behind me.
On the way to dinner we struck up a conversation about one another, and started to get to know each other a little better.
"So...super speed?" I asked.
"You only just noticed?" he smirked down at me.
I laughed with him for a few seconds, and then we began talking again.
"So what about you?" he asked, paying full attention to me as he talked.
"Well, you know I got my powers from Hydra, telekinesis and all that-" 
"No, I mean what about you. The real you."
I just stopped and stared at him blankly, slightly taken aback. No one had ever been interested in me before. If anybody ever did talk to me after learning what I can do, that was all they cared about, wanting me to show them a few 'tricks' or do something 'cool' for them. Nobody actually cared about me.
"Well, um, what do you want to know?" I asked, sort of unsure on what to tell him.
"Anything," he spoke in a gentle tone, smiling sweetly as he did so.
"Okay, um...My name's y/n, I have super powers, I'm scared of the dark and being alone, oh and clowns! Clowns are scary... Um, I love ice cream, and pizza, and I love to listen to music and sing at the top of my lungs. I also love animals."
I looked at Pietro, expecting him to say something, but instead he just smiled at me, looked down and shook his head.
"You are such a dork," he said whilst laughing at me.
I laughed too, and then opened the door to the dining hall which we'd arrived at, holding the door for Pietro behind me as I entered.

My pretty nerd
Chapter:2
All the students were trying to concentrate about their lessons except Sehun.
He was looking outside through the window and was on his own world.
He hates these boring lectures, eagerly waiting when this boring class will finish.
Sehun in mind: I've fucked almost every beautiful girls of this university. They're all nothing interesting anymore. I want someone new hot and sexy one..
At that moment he heard a soft knock in his classroom door.
A very sweet honey voice: May I come in?
He looked at the main door and noticed a clownish looking guy who entered the classroom after teacher's permission.
That guy was short, his hair messy and looked very simple with his transparent glasses.
All the students looked at that guy weirdly.
Anyone could tell the guy has no fashion sense. His very simple oversized shirt, unmatched baggy pants and worn out shoes could easily judged by others that he didn't belong to this environment.
That guy talked to the professor very softly something...
The professor: Guys attention please..we have a new student here. Please introduce yourself to others.
That guy with a smile cheerfully said: Hello everyone I am Byun Baekhyun.I am from Bucheon.This is my first day here.Nice to meet you all and let's be friends...
He bowed to them and looked at others.
Baekhyun could easily say that all of the students were giving him awkward looks just like they have seen something unsuitable for them.
But that look doesn't matter to him ,he is used to this kind of behavior but someone caught his attention. He saw a cute short, brown hair guy looking at him with a gentle smile.
Their professor noticed here and there ,lastly said :You can seat with Kim Suho. Suho raise your hand.
Then Suho raised his hand and asked Baekhyun to seat him him.
Baekhyun gave a pleased smile after getting Suho as his seat mate. Although he didn't know him, it seemed like Suho's smile was genuine.
Suho and Baekhyun sat together and greeted each other.
Baekhyun: Hello...
Suho: Hi,can I call you Baek?
Baekhyun with his boxy smile: Of course you can.
Suho asked his birthday, after that..
Suho: So you're a little bit younger than me. If you want you can call me hyung or Suho whatever you want.
Baekhyun: Ok, I will call you hyung.
They smiled at each other.
Suho: You are really cute Baekhyun.Let's be friends..
Baekhyun: You are cuter hyung, you look like a cute bunny.
Although it's new for Baekhyun someone wanted to be his friend that quickly, moreover willingly but he didn't mind...
Baekhyun: Yeah friends...
Sehun looked at Baekhyun and in his mind :I wanted to get someone hot sexy girl but unfortunately met a ugly nerd guy! Bad luck....
Strange!Why is Suho hyung talking to this ugly guy and also smiling?! I have never seen someone in this time with these old fashioned clothes,such a clown he is
Some of their classes had finished, Sehun could barely pass his most boring times.
Sehun time to time gave Baekhyun glances annoyedly since he was the reason Suho totally ignored him completely in these whole classes. Apparently Suho was enjoying Baekhyun's company.
When it was time for their lunch,Sehun was expecting Suho will come to him to go to eat lunch together but today it's completely different. It seemed like Suho has no time for him today because Suho and Baekhyun went outside holding each other hands. They were talking something and laughing, left like that Sehun didn't exist for Suho.
Sehun's mood was pissed off by them. He let out a sigh and went to the canteen area annoyedly.
In the canteen area..
Sehun came to them and he was ready to seat his regular seat but Suho pulled Baekhyun's hand patted on the chair to sit beside him.
Baekhyun sat on that seat.
Sehun stated sternly: This is my seat! Sit somewhere else..
Baekhyun was about to stand up quickly: Oh! I am sorry I didn't know that...
But Suho grabbed his hand and said:Sehun you can sit somewhere else.He is my new friend so I want to spend time with him.
This statement made Sehun angrier towards Baekhyun.
Suho: Sehun, meet my new cute friend Baekhyun. And Baekhyun, this is Oh Sehun...the university heartthrob. You can say the most handsome guy in this university.
Baekhyun with a smile: Oh hi Sehun! You can call me-
Sehun ignored him and sat on a different seat which is near to them.
All of the friends of Suho came to the canteen and introduced themselves to Baekhyun cheerfully and same went with Baekhyun.
They all said Baekhyun is very cute and sweet.
Hearing these words Sehun scoffed internally.They started eating and all of the friends shared some food portions with Baekhyun, which they always did with Sehun before.
But today view's different, it made Sehun jealous. Even though Baekhyun didn't do anything wrong ,without any reason he made Baekhyun his enemy in his mind.
His gloomy face lit up after receiving a text, it's from one of his sl*ts .He smirked after reading the text.
Sexy boobs: Daddy where are you? Your babygirl is so wet for you..wanna enjoy?
Sehun wasn't eating before for his bad mood, Baekhyun noticed it.
Baekhyun: Sehun do you want this?
Baekhyun offered some of his food sweetly but in result he got a death glare from Sehun .
Baekhyun couldn't understand why it was for,he thought maybe Sehun is a bit cold nature. He was very happy that all of other friends were very friendly to him,it's felt like they're known to each other from years except Sehun..
Sehun texted back..
Sehun: Coming baby...daddy is hard too..wait for me near the toilet.
Sehun left from there while smirking.Their friends knew very well where he went.
Baekhyun: Mmm... Sehun didn't eat his food, he eat just a little bit...
Suho: Don't worry Baek, he will eat his main food from a different place. Leave him.
Baekhyun didn't understand what Suho said ,he just shrugged off and finished eating.
On the other hand in the toilet Sehun's fucking a girl mercilessly. His mood was off so he thought he needs a good fuck.The girl is so sexy especially her boobs and very popular so Sehun offered her to fuck her again tomorrow.
That girl was addicted to Sehun's length, she immediately agreed.
The girl with a smile: See you tomorrow then..
They finished their unholy work and attended their classes.
That day passed, next morning Sehun was waiting for Suho and Lay in front at the University but the next scene didn't take time to ruin his mood.
Suho was running after Baekhyun,he is trying to catch Baekhyun.They both were giggling. Lay also smiled at them.
Sehun: Why are you late? I am waiting for a long for both of you(Suho and Lay)
Suho sarcastically: Am seeing right baby? Look great Mr Oh Sehun is standing and waiting for us ?
Lay: Yeah it's new!
Baekhyun noticed Sehun avoided his existence.
Baekhyun with a smile: Oh hi Sehun. Good morning!
Sehun: Hurry up,class will be starting soon..
Baekhyun stopped smiling and followed behind them.
They all went to their classrooms..
Sehun: Suho hyung you wanna sit with me?
Suho shook his head as no,Sehun felt sad.
Suho: I want to sit with Baek.
Their class started...as usual Sehun was feeling bored and he was on his day dreaming mood for another thing. He didn't even notice his teacher called him several times
Later his teacher came to him and asked loudly :Oh Sehun where is your concentration? I am asking you something since long!!
That helped him to get back on his earth,he flinched a little a looked at teacher confusedly, his teacher spoke again: Give a simple speech, at least 5 sentences with some examples about the topics I have taught you guys right now.
Sehun in mind : No why me?!
Ahhh I can't do these
Teacher: Why are you waiting for just go there and say something..
Sehun went near the board unwantedly ,he felt like his head's spinning after seeing the topic which was written by his teacher. He tried to say something but miserably failed.
Teacher: Shame Sehun!I am teaching this same topic for some days but you couldn't say a simple sentence. This is why I always say concentrate your study. Now go..
Sehun returned to his seat with ashamed face
Their teacher started writing but someone interrupted him ,and it's Baekhyun.
His teacher asked him the reason for interrupting,
Baekhyun: I am sorry to interrupt you...mm...actually I wanted to say some things about this topic...the way you have taught us it was really great but it was hard for us a bit to understand..if you don't mind can explain this in a simple way?
The teacher: Carry on..first come here.
Baekhyun went near to the board and wrote something and explained to the students very gracefully.
The students were listening to him carefully and understood the topic very easily.
Their teacher was astonished.
The teacher: Where did you learn about this?!
Baekhyun: Mm..I have learned about this topic in Bucheon. Actually I love to read books a lot so I know these details from other sources.
The teacher was amazed and asked him about some more difficult topics , but it seemed 'a piece of a cake ' for Baekhyun.
His teacher asked his previous school result, after hearing the results all the students swallowed their own saliva. Baekhyun's a very studious and brilliant student.
His teacher complimented him without any hesitation and felt proud that Baekhyun is now in their university. All the students clapped for him without Sehun.
Sehun was burning in jealousy and in his mind: Hmm,as expected he is a nerd...

Sarai was the first one to react after your mini episode.
You were still not yourself and the meds she administered weren't helping things, however; your warning was heard loud and clear.
'You hurt my friends.. and I'll never.. forgive you.'
It was a bold statement, one that the dark clown wasn't handling very well.
Sarai glanced over at Joker who had yet to say anything. He was watching you sleep while you were completely unaware to the fact that you just flipped his world upside down. It was unnerving to see him at a loss for words.
Sarai cleared her throat and tapped your IV drip hanging from the bedpost. "This'll be empty in two hours. Call me when it does."
Joker remained unresponsive so she sighed and focused her attention on your friend in the room. If Sarai remembered correctly, her name was Morgana but just in case she heard it wrong, she didn't call it out directly.
"It's my day off 'n the Fashion District is just round the way. You come with me." She zipped her bag close and waved for Morgana to follow her.
It didn't take a cryogenist to know that Joker needed some time alone with you. His thoughts were plentiful and they weighed on him heavily. However Morgana didn't read the room. She eyed the doctor sideways and stood her ground.
She promised your mother she would watch over you. "I'm not going anywhere. Y/n needs me!"
Sarai was already at the door but turned on her heel to address Morgana.
"She's sedated and I doubt she'll need anything for a few hours. Now, grab ya shoes and ya purse, we're dropping a band. Is my payment ready? Joker?"
Sarai called his name two more times yet he didn't respond.
He was still frozen like a statue, still trying to process your words. It was only after Sarai walked up to him that he blinked out of his fog and glared at her. His body language was defensive and ready to maim. He was back to normal after all.
"My payment?" Sarai dragged out.
Joker waved Sarai off like a pest. "The usual."
She faced Morgana with a wide grin, "We rich! If you need me, send for me!" Sarai shouted over her shoulder at Joker.
She pulled Morgana out of the bedroom and eventually the apartment despite the florist pitching a fit the entire way. Then, Joker was finally alone with you.
So much had transpired during the week apart he felt like he was back to square one with you.
The weekend he spent with you in Martha's Vineyard felt like a dream and so far from reality. He could never forget your beautiful smile or your soft, hesitant touch making him feel like a man reborn. He'd seen the light and experienced its power and now that same light had been snuffed out.
It was disheartening and Joker would not let it stand.
Joker believed you were somewhere buried underneath the pain and trauma of your past.
His Light, an educated bookworm who stuttered under pressure yet quick to raise her voice if someone was in the wrong. That had to be your Blüdhaven upbringing at play. You were a little spitfire in hiding.
He longed for that Y/n, the one that was slowly coming out of her introverted shell. The version of you whom he had inevitably grown to love. Suddenly, a weight lifted from his chest.
Joker could say it now. Love. He loves you.
The very meaning of the word made him feel as if he was underwater fighting against a current.Saying the word up until now made him choke up.
For so long Joker wondered, how could a person blindly love another? To willingly sacrifice everything, their very life, all to please their beloved? It didn't make any sense to him. Then Joker met you and it was sooo easy to risk it all, he questioned how he didn't believe sooner.
He thought people were stupid when they said, 'I found my person.'
He'd been around the world and seen the worst of humanity, but when he looked at you, he was humbled beyond words. If Joker was evil incarnate, then you were a goddess walking on Earth.
And woe, to whoever caused you this pain.
Your Dark Prince would burn cities in your honor. You need not worry about the misdeeds that Joker committed in order to keep you happy. All you needed to do was enjoy the spoils of war.
If keeping you in the dark kept you by his side, then so be it. It didn't soothe his conscience though. Joker thought his shady actions were just but you and your naïve view of the world, would not see things his way.
He would always be the villain in your story even if he paraded around in the sheep's clothing.
Joker could lie till the sun turned blue, but in this moment while you slept blissfully unaware, he would show his hand. Only then would he have the strength to deceive you and remain by your side. But first he needed proof that you were sound asleep.
Joker leaned forward to run his fingers down your cheek. You didn't move a muscle.
Color was coming back to your complexion in the short amount of time that Sarai administered fluids. Your body was struggling to keep up with your emotional outbursts and Joker knew that this was only the beginning to a long process of healing.
He knew you had your demons but you were so secretive about them.
Anytime your past was brought up in conversation, you found a way to dodge the subject. It was frustrating but it piqued his interest.
He deserved to know every aspect of you since he was fully invested now.
Joker felt like he should be the only one mentally unstable in this relationship. He accepted that his mind was ruined a loooong time ago but you? You didn't deserve this. You were a beacon of light, a motivation to so many, (Joker included) and without that natural source of light, he felt off kilter.
Slowly but surely, you and your inner light was changing Joker for the better and he was feeling the side effects now that you were temporarily out of commission. He didn't want to go back to the life he led before meeting you. Life had no meaning, no spark. He was just an empty shell of destruction searching for something worthwhile.
Joker couldn't go back to that. He needed his Light back.
Sarai stated it would take two hours for your IV bag to empty. That gave Joker plenty of time to confess.
He grabbed one of the accent chairs from the fireplace area and brought it over to the side of the bed. He settled into it with a sigh while his eyes roamed over your slumbing form. Morgana had tucked you back under the covers before Sarai all but dragged her out of the apartment.
Joker made a mental note to wire the doctor more funds.
The woman was a nuisance but she proved herself useful time and time again. Joker was glad to have someone like her on his payroll. She acknowledged that he needed time alone with you and got Morgana to leave the premises without drawing attention to his dilemma.
Speaking of which...
Joker cleared his throat. He had so much to say and not a lot of time left to say it in.
"I've done so much that I'll never uhh, atone for but your words Bunny.. They haunt me. I think I already broke my promise to ya, doll." He looked at your closed eyelids.
You looked so peaceful fast asleep; he felt like a coward for speaking on deaf ears. Yet his conscience would be clear if he got this off his chest.
"I-I didn't mean to but.. Florence she's.." Joker swallowed thickly.
You were asleep but in a way, he felt ashamed for what he'd done. Deep down Joker knew you would never forgive him. This would be a confession he'd take to the grave.
"I did it because I had to, Y/n. I'll do any-thing to keep you safe. To keep us safe. That's all I want. Us. T-Together. But I fear if—" Joker stopped and snorted to himself.
"No. My bunny is smart. There's no if. I fear when you find out about all the horrors I've done and uh, will do– you'll leave me. And I... I can't have thaT. Not when I just got ya."
Joker looked down at his hands and grimaced at the invisible blood staining them.
How could you stand them?
You swore up and down that you loved Joker's hands and more importantly, his touch, but the level of trust you willingly gave away troubled him. Everything Joker touched, he destroyed. How were you any different? He left nothing but pain in his wake and he didn't want to hurt you again.
You were a delicate creature in his eyes, a goddess gracing him with just your mere presence. He had no right to touch something so pure.
His hands were forever dirty. Joker's palms were calloused and he had flecks of red and white makeup near his fingers. Joker noticed his nails were getting a bit long and smirked.
If you were awake and in better spirits, you would attack them with nail clippers, making them pretty and worthy to hold, but even then, Joker still didn't see what you saw every time you reached out to hold them.
What made him worthy of your affection?
You would hold his hands as if they were precious gems and kiss each finger with the faintest brush of your lips, that it stole Joker's breath every time.
He didn't deserve such reverence on such tools of mass destruction and especially not from someone like you.
The feeling of your delicate hands slotting into his much rougher ones should be illegal but you would simply scoff at J's tsundere ways and hold them whenever you had the chance. In your eyes, you were the one unworthy to touch him.
You were the only person that touched him without a shred of malicious intent.
A literal angel came down from above with the sole purpose to torture his wicked soul with love and kindness. Joker could never fathom a way to repay you but he could guarantee that he would break your heart.
It was the kind of person he was. History always repeats itself.
He could only hope you would look past his many, many flaws and remain by his side for he would do the same for you.
So what if he was being selfish? Joker knew you were way out of his league but that wouldn't stop him from wanting you all for himself. He would do anything to change fate's design to keep the girl and live happily ever after.
As if such a thing were possible for a corrupted man like him. Did he even deserve a happy ending with the life he lived? No harm in finding out.
Joker reached out and held your hand with one of his own.
He dropped his unique speech pattern and spoke straight from the heart. He leaned down so his words could fall straight into your ear.
"Florence threatened to expose us both and they would have taken you from me. I couldn't bear being separated from you so I..." Joker squeezed your hand tighter.
It was right on the tip of his tongue yet he could say it aloud. Perhaps speaking it into existence made it real and he wasn't ready for you to know the truth just yet. J dropped his head with a bitter smile.
"You may think me a monster and that's okay. I am. But know this. No matter how much you hate me, no matter how hard you try to leave— in the end, this monster will always be by your side because.. I-I have nowhere else to go. You own me my Light. You've won."
Joker scanned your face for a flicker of alertness, but you stayed asleep. His smile was bittersweet before he kissed you softly. A monster kissing his sleeping beauty.
And oh how the mighty have fallen.
Your IV bag was half empty but Joker would wait until you opened your eyes to talk to you then. There was no other place he'd rather be so he settled in and took vigil, protecting his Light.
Tumblr media
Joker heard you whimper just shy of the two hour mark. He set down his journal and waited for you to stir awake but much to his disappointment, nothing happened so he returned to his work.
He was underlining a great idea for a heist when you whimpered again. Joker looked over and saw that a heavy weight had settled on your brow that wasn't there before.
He watched you shift under the covers and thought maybe you were waking up but instead you mumbled something inaudible and flinched away from an unknown entity. It took him a minute but Joker knew all too well what was happening. You were having a nightmare and watching it unfold tore him apart.
He tossed his work down and reached over to shake you awake.
"Y/n. Hey, hey... bunny." His efforts proved to be counterproductive since you openly sobbed and curled into a fetal position.
As a result, your IV line stretched too far and pulled taunt on your forearm. Joker was worried that the needle would come out so he tried to help you lie back down but you had other plans. Whatever nightmare you were experiencing was traumatic and you reacted accordingly.
It came out of nowhere. One minute you were curled up like a ball, the next, you were fighting him with all your might.
Joker had to admit– you had hands, but you were causing more harm to yourself than him and somehow you were still asleep during the scuffle. He had to put an end to this.
"Wake up Y/n!" Joker shouted as he dodged your fists.
He grunted when your knee collided with his groin. Joker's pain tolerance was high but he was still a man. He grimaced through the pain and missed your eyes flying open in a state of panic.
Your head was still foggy from the pain meds but you quickly acknowledged that a male was pinning you down.
You couldn't tell what was real and what was just your nightmare; the only thing you could do was react the same way you did well over a year ago.
"G-Get off of me, Ty! Stop it!"
Joker froze the moment you yelled another man's name.
He quickly flipped the two of you over so you were the one in control but he didn't let you go.
He couldn't let you fight this alone. Although he didn't know what to do, he decided that talking you through it was somewhat of a good idea.
"Shhh shhh doll. Hey, uh.. do ya remember when I took you to the uh beach? You wanted to err— 'hear the dark ocean waves crashing onto the shore and feel the stillness of the night embrace you.' Buh-lieve me, it sounded wayy better comin' from you. I thoughT you were crazy for wanting to go at nighT but you madeit sound so.. normal. I wanted to experience something normal with you."
Joker noticed that you stopped fighting him so he kept going.
"You were uh, happy just dancing in the moonlight, so carefree and beautiful. I never took my eyes off ya and how could I? You're perfect, my light in the darkness, my.. everything. I'd do anything for you, don't ya know that doll? Say the woo~oord and it's yours, remember?"
Joker cradled the back of your head and you could hear his heartbeat while lying on his chest. He was just as nervous as you were. You clung to Joker's shirt tighter and whimpered.
Joker saw that he was winning you over and took things a step further.
"I'm gonna rub your back in uhh, circular motions mkay? Tell me to stop and I will."
You were afraid that Joker would make fun of your fragile situation but instead he took the time to alert you of his intentions. That had to count for something yet the doubt still lingered.
You squeezed your eyes shut and tried to clear them away. This was Joker, he wouldn't hurt you.. right? There were so many unknowns floating inside your head but Joker called out your name in that unique tone of his dragged you out of the fray.
His hands gently landed on your back, making you tense on reflex. "This okay?" He asked.
A man who never asked for permission a day in his life, offered you that courtesy. With a shaky nod, you allowed it.
"Yeah? All-rightY then. I'll go slow buT... ya gotta talk to me. What's goin' on in that pretty head of yours, bun?"
He left a kiss on the crown of your head and rubbed your back in soothing figure eights. The rhythm made your eyes fall half mast but Joker stopped before you could fall under.
He drummed his fingers against your spine and it startled you awake. "Use your words, pretty girl. Tell me."
"Please, don't make me relive that." You begged.
The finger drumming stopped and you risked a peek at Joker. His shriveled up heart tore into two seeing a river of diamonds running down your bronze cheeks.
Someone hurt his Light and they would pay but first he would do his best to dry your tears. He can't bear it whenever you cry. Your tears would be his undoing.
"Relive what, Y/n? I never know what's going on with you. Who's this Ty person, hmm? I can kill him for you.."
You froze. You couldn't believe that you uttered that name for J to hear. Maybe if you backtracked Joker would forget and move on.
"N-No one. Just forge—"
"Stop. Dodging. The. Question! Morgana told me what happ-ened last night and now you're reacting like this?! You can't hide from me anymore. I neeeeeeeeed to know what happened.."
Joker shifted a bit so he could catch one of your tears with his index finger. There was genuine concern etched on his face that left you speechless. You never wanted Joker to know but he wasn't going to let this go. He was just as stubborn as you are.
He started to list off your drawbacks.
"You fear a man's touch. You have anxiety and social triggers. You run away from anything stressful, and d__n it Y/n! Just tell me what happened. I won't jud—"
"NO!"
Joker arched an eyebrow at your sudden outcry. He'd only known you a few months but you weren't a person to raise your voice at others.
"Nooo no no... no, you'll h-hate me if I told you!" You choked out a sob and Joker was quick to pull you back into a hug. His warm embrace was the perfect remedy despite the circumstances at hand.
"I could never hate you! What makes you think that Y/n?" He vowed while squeezing you tighter.
Joker had his suspicions on what happened to you but he kept it to himself. Morgana offered to spill the beans but he felt he should hear the truth directly from you. For so long Joker questioned your odd tics and mannerisms and today they finally held meaning.
You created some space from him with a sigh and Joker knew whatever you were about to say would change everything. You couldn't look him in the eye anymore.
With tears dotting your lashes, you finally broke down and told Joker about your past.
"Because why would you want someone's leftovers?"
"Uh leftovers?" J echoed. You sat up in Joker's lap and sniffled.
You never told anyone what truly happened that fateful night– not even when your parents begged you to make a police report, but the moment you started talking, you just couldn't stop. The truth was finally coming out and you felt indifferent to it all.
You wrapped your arms around yourself and began.
"His birthday was coming up and I didn't want him to be more upset with me. He was already mad because I didn't get him anything so we decided last minute on a movie. Some trashy romance flick that I couldn't tell you the title of to save my life. In hindsight, I realize that he practically threatened me to go. He knew what he wanted from me."
"The movie was fine until he got handsy halfway through. I said no. I said no all night... He slapped me, called me a f__king cocktease when I refused to suck him off– so I left. It should've been simple.. Give Ty a day or two to cool off but he always apologizes. He had a temper but he never meant to take it out on me. He always apologized because he... loved me. Or so I thought." You shivered.
"That night was different though. He was so angry that I made a scene walking out and we had already fought the day before about me moving to Gotham to kick off my writing career. He wanted me to be a stay at home wife. Heh, marriage was never brought up in a conversation he just... assumed that I would be with him forever. If only I had known just how controlling he really was. By the time he showed me his true colors—"
You chuckled while blinking back your tears. Joker wanted to reach out and wipe them away, do anything really to comfort you, but your next sentence stopped him in his tracks.

*** TRIGGER WARNING STARTS NOW ***
"He followed me out into the alley behind the theater. I made it to the sidewalk, but he grabbed my hair and dragged me back into the darkness. He s-slammed my head so hard into the brick wall, I lost consciousness. I came to and scratched at his face so he broke my arm. And the b-broken jaw was because I-I was too loud. If I had kept my mouth shut like a good girlfriend, he wouldn't have to be so rough, he said. It still aches when it rains, which is all the time, but it's whatever I guess."
Joker's gaze fell to your jaw as if he could find evidence to your assault well over a year later. He did notice on heavy rainy days that you would rub your jaw in pain.
He thought nothing of it until now.
It also explained why you were so quiet during sex. You were punished for being too loud then and feared making a sound now.
The puzzle pieces were slowly snapping into place and Joker felt sick to his stomach for being so blind.
"W-When you love someone, you trust them not to h-hurt you." You didn't see Joker's guilt torn face as you said that. You carried on unawares. "He broke that trust so I made the decision to escape from the pain he was inflicting."
"You dissociated while he..." Joker whispered.
How long had you bottled this up? Months? Years? Joker didn't want to know the answer.
He inflicted pain on others simply because it was amusing; nothing bothered him, but hearing the accounts of a traumatic assault from an innocent creature like you, it truly broke his heart.
Now he understood why you always ran when things got too dicey. It was your coping mechanism. Running kept you safe and you couldn't break old habits.
Joker regretted asking you about the past. Some things were best left in the dark.
"I'll never get his voice out of my head. He praised me for being so tight. I was choking on my own blood and b-bleeding internally from each agonizing thrust, and he.. thanked.. me for being... He knew I loved praise and used it against me! I lost a piece of myself that I'll never get back all because he thanked me. C-Can you even call it rape if you cum? How could my own body betray me and enjoy something so barbaric?"
You fought back tears and furiously wiped away any that emerged. When you felt strong enough, you continued.
"It took months to physically mend myself back together but my mental wounds will never heal. I tried to move on and start dating again but..... he was always there. Every date, every hookup, every attempt at sex, was ruined with the thought of him and his touch. Eventually I stopped trying. I accepted the fact I was broken and focused on my work and nothing else. I lost friends but I didn't care. I moved to Gotham City to start anew and haven't looked back. I was existing but not living– that is until you came along."
*** TRIGGER WARNING HAS ENDED ***
Tumblr media
Joker looked up in shock. He had been quiet for the most part but hearing his name during your story was a shock. "M-Me?" He pointed to himself.
You exhaled sharply and grabbed Joker's hand.
He watched as you played with his calloused fingers and frowned when you noticed the length of his nails. You picked at a jagged edge as you replied.
"Yeah.. you. You aren't normal and after what I've been through, I craved your um.. brand of different I guess? You don't care that I'm someone else's leftovers— a girl who's afraid of being touched. When I'm with you.. I-I can be the Y/n I was before I was r-r.. um assaulted."
You intertwined your fingers with Joker's and glanced up at him. He immediately returned your stare. "Please tell me you won't leave m-me. N-Now that you know."
Now Joker knew where your separation anxiety originated from.
So many fools before him left you high and dry while you were trying to heal and they unknowingly scarred you further. Joker saw the sheer desperation in your e/c eyes and vowed to be different.
He would not make the same mistake they did.
Joker didn't say a word as he leaned forward to grab a hold of your face.
You jumped at the unexpected contact but his eyes are what scared you the most. They weren't filled with pity or disgust; Joker's vivid green eyes glowed with nothing but acceptance.
Joker's clown makeup took away from the sight but his genuine smile was still a sight for sore eyes. It made yours widen in shock.
"Where else would I go, hmm?" Then he heard his favorite sound in the world. Your laugh.
It wasn't the light and airy bell like tone he was used to, but it'll do given the circumstances. You leaned into Joker's calloused hand that cradled your face with a half smile.
"There she issssss, there's my Light! You thought that would scare me off? Nah, that's nothing. Pfft. I've done far worse sweetheart." Joker thought the joke came out well but he felt the moment you tensed up.
He wanted to kick himself when you leaned away. "What?"
Joker's brain was working in overdrive on how to retract that statement.
In your fragile state, the last thing you needed was to discover just how much of a monster Joker truly was. Thankfully the sound of your stomach growling saved the day. He sighed in relief when you became flustered and covered your belly.
The last thing you ate was a plate of sweets and now your body was craving real food. You filed Joker's eerie words away for later to focus on your body's needs.
"I doubt Dick left any food but it won't hurt to check." You flung the covers away to stand but you were literally yanked back by your IV line.
You glared at it in shock. It was then you noticed that you were tied to the bedpost.
You prayed that you were just reading too much into things. There was no way that Joker would deliberately tie you to the bed. He had no reason to yet your heart started to race when he remained silent.
'I've done far worse sweetheart.' Was this Joker's way of showing you his true colors?
"J, what the..."
He smacked his lips and began the tedious task of untying your line from the headboard.
He tried to ignore your bugged out eyes watching his every move. You had just finished explaining that your rapist ex was controlling only to find out your current lover tied you to the bed.
He'd kill Sarai for her dumb idea. Who ties a medical IV bag to a bedpost anyways?!
It didn't matter who was truly at fault, in your eyes, Joker was to blame. He was making mistake after mistake and really setting himself up for a trip to the doggie house or worse. You just might kick him out of your life for good.
Once the line was loose, he focused on removing the IV needle. Sarai advised him to call her but Joker wanted as much privacy with you as possible. He just hoped he was removing it correctly. At least it didn't bleed as much when he took out the needle. You grimaced more from his touch than the removal process.
He wondered how long it would take for you to trust him again. He missed touching you so freely already.
Joker slapped a band-aid that matched your skin tone on the entry point and stood up.
"You're uh wel-come to join me in the errr kitchen. Do ya need help gettin' there?" Joker ideally wanted to carry you to the kitchen or at least spot you along the way but you were still wary of him.
He would be stuck asking for your permission and doing frequent check-ins for the unforeseeable future.
Not that he minded but it would become repetitious after a while. Just because you and Joker were on the same page again didn't mean he was out of the neck of the woods. He didn't want to overstep any boundaries and risk starting things over from the beginning.
It took too long for Joker to craft the trust he formed with you and he would not let your ex ruin his hard work.
Maybe some food would do you some good. The fluids and pain meds could only do so much to get you back healthy. Although Joker now knew that your mental health was an issue there was no way he could help you there.
"N-No. I think I'll be fine. Um, can you fix me a plate while I'm in the bathroom?" You weren't quite sure why you turned down Joker's assistance but watching his shoulders deflate made you feel ten times more guilty.
Joker was trying to help in the only way he knew how.
You didn't move from the bed and Joker got the message. You wanted some privacy and so with a mute nod, he made himself scarce.
You waited until Joker left the bedroom to breathe a sigh of relief. You quite literally got something off your chest. You'd been bottling your trauma for a year now and parading around like everything was fine was not good for your mental health.
Joker was the only soul who knew the severity of your assault and he didn't leave like so many partners did before him.
He was okay with you being a mess and that alone made you crack a smile that quickly faded away. Being a mess was not something to celebrate. You were tired of pretending. Maybe it was high time to stop joking about it and actually schedule a therapy appointment.
Your mother was probably giving Him all the Glory if she knew you were serious about seeking professional help this time.
If you remembered correctly, Mom gave you a list of psychologists from Blüdhaven and another list that practiced here in Gotham City after you moved. You nodded to yourself and set about getting up so you could go to your room to search for it. Then you could make a quick stop in the bathroom on the trip back.
The covers were still flung back so you swung your legs over the bed and stood up, only to stagger back onto the bed when your balance failed you.
Perhaps you should've taken Joker's offer to help. You'd been bed ridden all day and your equilibrium was completely out of whack but you suffered through worse.
You toughened through it and walked down the hallway to your bedroom, quickly closing the door behind you.
Joker heard the door echo in the apartment and sighed. It was a distinct sound that rattled his nerves. You were in your room and there was no telling if you would emerge.
For now, all he could do was prepare a plate of food and hope you joined him in the kitchen.
In the meantime, he called Mac and Frost and took care of some business. You walked into the kitchen right as he was finishing up a phone call with Mac.
"I don'T care. Follow her so we don't have another repeat occurrence. Uhh she's with Sarai, find her on your own."
Joker spotted you hesitating in the archway and hurried Mac off the phone. "Yeah yeah just do your job and have fun."
Joker hung up and grabbed a small pot off the stove. He pointed at the island counter and you obeyed the silent request.
Your kitchen remained the same as you remembered it but now Joker was buzzing around it and doing a great job of fixing you a plate. He found your causal china from the cupboard and loaded a plate up with a generous helping of baked beans, a generous slice of Dad's BBQ meat, and he was currently raking some warmed up greens onto the plate. You doubted you'd eat all of it but the gesture was there.
Joker was concerned about you.
He set the pot back on the stove before pushing the plate across the island counter towards you. "Eat." He spun around to yank the silverware drawer open. "Uh hold on.."
A fork was presented to you along with a napkin or two.
You arched an eyebrow at Joker being so at ease in your kitchen but dug into your food with gusto. The flavors had time to set overnight and it was a literal party in your mouth. You felt the energy recharging your body and you did a small happy dance in your seat.
You looked up when you heard Joker snort.
He was leaning back on the sink with his arms crossed, staring at you. There was a softness in his eyes that you never seen before. He looked like a lovesick puppy and sported a dopey smile on his lips.
It sent butterflies stirring in your stomach but you pushed down the feeling and slowly ate under his watch. You were blowing on a forkful of food when he suddenly spoke.
"We should go out."
The beans on your fork dripped back onto your plate. Surely he was kidding. You downplayed the obvious. "Out? Like o-outside on the balcony?"
Joker fixed you with a deadpan glare. He grabbed a fork of his own and stole a bite of your greens. You looked on in disbelief at the amount he took and definitely not at the juices running down his chin provocatively.
He was making a show of chewing them, "Mmm that's good but uhh.. no. Out as in... I take ya out on a date." He smirked at your jaw dropping open. He felt cheeky so he scooped up some beans and fed them to you.
You jumped back last minute and had no other choice but to chew them as Joker spoke.
"Lemme spoil my Light rotten so you can see what I see. A beautiful goddess walkin' amongst us. Whaddya say pretty girl? Wanna go on a date with me?" Joker flashed you a smile.
"I.. but you.." You stuttered. Joker played along with your lack of excuses.
He twirled his hands in a circle, "But whaT, Bunny?"
"You seem to forget you're a wanted criminal with the entire city on the hunt for you! We can't just go out! I mean... what if you get caught or um.." You stared at the concrete poured countertops as if they held the answers you needed.
Joker laughed and propped his elbow up on the surface. He was glad to know your only reservations were about his safety and not about being in a foul mood to go out.
He drummed his fingers on the counter and shrugged his shoulders.
"So? I wanna take my girl out. That's a uhh, risk, I'm willin to take. If you don't wanna go just say so. Orrrr is it something else holding you back? Don't wanna be seen with me? Is that it?"
You were quick to deny, "NO! That's not it! I-I.. it's the other way round! I'm not worth all the fuss, Joker."
Joker growled and smacked his hands down, causing the plate and other items on the counter to rattle briefly. You flinched when he rounded the counter to tip your chin back.
Joker knew you were still skittish with physical touch but he couldn't help himself. He brushed his lips against yours so you could feel the honesty dripping from his lips.
"An author I know once penned. 'Let it be known all across Greece, that I, a lowly human, cherish and bow before the feet of a goddess. Should she smite me here and now, I will undoubtedly perish as a satisfied man.'"
Hearing Joker quote your books was like a shot of tequila without a lime.
It spoke to how much he valued you as a person and as an author while still paying homage to his burning desire for you.
His shaky sigh fanned over your face and you closed your eyes from the intimate contact. Your instincts were screaming at you to run run run, however you were a woman and a very attractive man was declaring his devotion to you. You stayed rooted in place.
Your heart skipped and you licked your lips, unknowingly swiping Joker's.
"Happy." Joker was confused until you finished your sentence by correcting the book quote. "Sebastian said he'd perish a happy man, not satisfied."
You panted in the space between Joker's mouth and yours. He was so close it hurt.
"Same thing." Joker shortened the distance and captured your lips with a groan. How long had he starved himself of this pleasure? A week too long.
You tasted so sweet and felt so soft– a literal treat for a man touch starved. He couldn't stop himself from grabbing you by the waist and hoisting you up on the counter. Joker didn't part for air and you clung to him tighter.
Your legs naturally parted to allow Joker room to step in between them and you wrapped your arms around his neck to deepen the kiss.
Where everyone else was closed off, somehow it felt right to let Joker in. Despite your fears and unresolved trauma, you could trust Joker with your body.
You could tell he was holding back (you swooned at his self-restraint) and a part of you was grateful when he pulled back. It was too much too soon.
He leveled his breathing and rested his forehead against yours, "Y/n, you're worth everything. Let me do this, hm?"
You gazed into Joker's eyes. This meant a lot to him although your current level of confidence couldn't grasp why. You just had to blindly trust that Joker had your best interests at heart.
"Okay."
"Okay... what?" He pressed. He never broke eye contact with you which didn't help you think straight. You could drown in his sea of moss green.
"Um, y-yes I wanna go on a d-date with.. with you."
Joker looked like a kid in a candy store. He couldn't stop smiling and almost kissed you again but backed away at the last minute. He saw you breathe a sigh of relief and knew he made the right decision.
"Ya won't regret it. Now! Let's spoil my Bunny rotten shall we?" Joker bopped you on the nose.
Just what did you sign up for?
Tumblr media
It was impossible for someone with your skin color to truly blush but you could feel your skin boiling with all the attention Joker bestowed you.
He encouraged you to wash up and change into something that was easy to get in and out of before ushering you out of the apartment. You ended up in a pair of beat up sweats and one of his shirts. You were giving bum city realness and felt like it too.
Joker also changed to blend in better– if being disguised as a sexy mafia boss was his definition of 'blending in.'
Every female in a fifty mile radius eyed Joker like the piece of meat he was. The sad part, he knew he looked fine and fed off the energy.
He wore another delicious all black suit with gold cufflinks and a matching watch on his arm. He walked with a purpose and kept you safely tucked in the crook of his arm.
Male and females glared at you in envy as this mysterious male guided you into Gotham City's elite boutique. You were embarrassed to say the least.
You only been in here once to browse around for your American GreatRead's award dress before Cindy hooked you up with a custom designer.
Only celebrities and the upper echelon of Gotham City dared to step foot into Tashio and Joker dragged you in here in your beat up house clothes.
You and Joker hadn't made it a foot into the store when a woman with beautiful ebony skin strutted over. "May I help you two?"
Joker took off his shades to inspect her more closely. He was forced to keep his mask on lest everyone see his scars but his presence still commanded respect. You were amazed at how he slicked his hair back so the green streaks didn't show. It was slowly fading and he didn't bother dying it back since he knew you loved his natural hair color.
Just another way he was changing himself for you.
"Yes. My girl and I are going out tonight. Black tie. There's no limit and don't listen to her suggestions, she's errr modest." He nudged you forward so the saleswoman could take a look at you.
You almost snapped your neck to glare at Joker.
"What's that supposed to mean?" You gritted.
The woman got straight to business. "Understood. Any preference of designers sir and will the two of you be matching? Oh, and what's your size?" She spoke to you directly at the end but Joker replied on your behalf. "No, yessss, and she's a...."
Joker paused to look you over. You bashfully looked away as his eyes roamed over your curves.
If anyone else stared at you in such a way you'd be disgusted, but Joker's lustful gaze made you feel desired and a touch confident. He locked eyes with you as he spoke.
"She's a (insert dress size)." You knew he was smiling underneath his face mask. The cocky clown was right..
"Will you be staying for the fitting? Sir?" The saleswoman cleared her throat to get his attention. "Excuse me sir?"
J's gaze was still on you when he replied, "Mhm." He didn't catch the saleswoman's smile.
"Very well.. Please, come with me." She waved the two of you further into the store and asked for your name. You complimented her bantu knots and her striking blue eyeliner and she in turn admired your work in literature.
And of course that launched a discussion about your novels. You could talk for hours about your work.
By the time the three of you reached the actual showroom, you were perfectly at ease. Joker noted how your demeanor mellowed out around women and decided to fall back to give you some space.
You hardly noticed his absence. You still had no clue where Joker was taking you tonight except that it was a black tie event.
Kendra, your styling consultant, sat you down and asked you questions while her assistant ran around to stock a private room with the choices that you unknowingly made so far.
You ruled out anything short and in your least favorite color and Kendra listened attentively while making mental notes of your preferences based on your answers.
You were surprised by how seamless the whole process was especially when Kendra informed you she already had some ensembles picked out for you to try on. You passed by a gorgeous pair of shoes on the way to the fitting room and she assured you that she would also assist in picking out any accessories and shoes to go with your final selection.
Joker was making due on his promise to spoil you.
Speaking of the clown, you finally acknowledged that he wasn't with you. He must've disappeared while you weren't looking. Hopefully he stayed out of trouble while you shopped around.
Kendra was explaining the store's wide collection of designers when a commotion on the floor gained her attention.
"Sir! Can you please return that to its original display?!"
Both you and Kendra turned to spot a redhead running behind Joker, who was carrying an entire mannequin over his shoulder like it was a normal occurrence.
You facepalmed as Kendra chuckled at the sight. She waved her co-worker off. The redhead was miffed but stormed off with a grumble under her breath. This is why she liked when men left the store.
Joker set the mannequin down once he reached your side. "I li-ke this one." He said.
Kendra didn't have the heart to tell the man this design was a display only. Her fingers were crossed that they had your size still in stock.
"Good choice sir, she'll look amazing in Valentino. Would you like to try it on, Y/n?"
You glared at Joker for his lack of manners and studied the gown. You were worried about your chest behaving, or rather, not in the off the shoulder gown.
"Uh it's beautiful but.."
Joker hummed and tugged the material down. You gasped the same time Kendra fixed her mouth to scold him.
"It has a built-in bra Bunny. The uh.. girls won't go anywhere you don't want em' to." He let go of the gown and shooed you towards your private room. "Go try it on."
Your ears were redder than the dress and Kendra did her best to stifle her laugh while following you back to the fitting room. She excused herself to go check inventory (thank the gods they had your size left!) and returned to help you in it.
Just like Joker said, your cleavage wasn't a problem. You stared at your reflection in the mirror and twirled absentmindedly.
"Your boyfriend has good taste."
You stopped twirling to stare at Kendra. She was smiling and didn't know the weight of her words.
"Not many partners stay for the fittings let alone make good selections. He's a keeper." She fixed the seam around your arm as you stared off in thought.
Is that what you and Joker looked like to outsiders? Like a couple? You bit your lip to stop your smile.
"He's not my boyfriend." You denied. Kendra scoffed.
"With the way he looks at you? The devil is a lie and denial is a river in Africa. You may be delulu, but that man is down bad for you. You look good girl. Do you want to show him this one?"
You were most definitely in denial. There was no way that Joker would commit to anyone let alone you— especially now since he knew about your past, but you begrudgingly nodded at Kendra.
However a knock on the door interrupted you. The same redhead from before poked her head through the door.
"Sorry Kendra but your client asked me to send these two in. Said something about his goddess needed to try them on. He's not feeling the red anymore." She rolled her eyes before handing your consultant two more gowns for you to try.
It's like Joker read your mind; you were a bit indecisive and needed more options.
Kendra thanked her colleague and unzipped the dress bag open to reveal a high collar teal gown. It was a pencil silhouette and looked very chic on the hanger.
You were hesitant but stepped into the dress only to turn your nose up as the fabric accented your curves a little too much.
You saw Joker's vision here but you weren't feeling confident in it. Kendra noticed your displeasure and didn't bother fastening the buttons near the neck. "Let's try the next one shall we?" She politely deflected.
She knew you too well for someone you just met. You let out a heavy sigh and stripped to your bra and panties again.
Joker meant well but what if you didn't find anything to wear to his surprise date? You probably tried on a dozen gowns, each one more gorgeous than the last, but none of them felt right.
Kendra carefully held a deep indigo number for you to step into. The second it glided over your skin, you broke out in goosebumps. The rich color looked divine on your darker skin and once Kendra zipped it up and you saw the dramatic ruffles, you knew.
She had a feeling this was the one too and smiled as she smoothed and tucked the gown a certain way to earn your approval.
You had yet to stop smiling at your reflection in the mirror. It was dramatic and elegant and you felt glamorous while wearing it. It would stand up perfectly with Joker's dark suit tonight.
"I-I wanna show him this one." You murmured. Kendra agreed and gave you a pair of sample heels to walk in.
The door opened and you walked down the short hallway and turned the corner to find Joker sitting on a couch, fiddling with his watch. He was blowing a raspberry but felt a presence in the room. His jade eyes immediately locked on you and then his heart stopped.
He was utterly speechless. You played with your fingers before clearing your throat.
"D-Do you like it, J?" Nervous was an understatement as Joker stood up without a word.
He came to a stop in front you and pulled his mask down far enough to kiss you right there on the showroom floor.
You jumped at the initial contact but let his lips dance across yours. Joker's lips were like satin to the touch despite his scars and you firmly believed he kissed you differently every time you lips met his.
You forgot you were in public when he licked the root of your mouth with his tongue.
You shoved him away none too gently. "J, stop!" You hid your shaking hands behind your back and glanced around.
Kendra had her back turned– pretending to straighten a display dress on its hanger better and no one else was in the nearby vicinity. Joker pulled you right back in his embrace. He felt you trembling but pursued his goal.
"So? Let them.." He kissed your cheek, "Mmm, let them see.. just how much.. you're wanted." He said in between pecking your face.
It was light and innocent, nothing heavy to rattle your nerves but you still grimaced each time Joker's lips came in contact with your skin. You hated how quickly your mood changed.
Joker was always mindful of your body language and pulled away to fix his mask back over his mouth.
You didn't shy away from Joker as a person per se, but rather at the fact he was wasting his passion on damaged goods. You still felt lesser than. That would change by the end of the night.
Joker sighed to himself before waving Kendra and her assistant over. If they saw anything, their poker faces were stone cold.
Joker shoved his fists into his pockets and nodded over at you.
"Get my Light some uh proper heels to wear and drown her in jewels. Gold she uhh, looks the best in gold.."
Joker watched you rub the back of your neck. "I want her hair and makeup done too. Uh, I'll be back."
Once Joker issued his requests, he stepped away, leaving you with a smug Kendra and a clueless assistant calling the inhouse hair and makeup crew so they could expect your arrival.
Kendra offered you a napkin to wipe your face. Did the man have to slobber all over it? At least he wasn't wearing his clown makeup.
"I thought he wasn't your boyfriend Y/n?" Kendra snickered.
You snatched the napkin out of her hands. "Oh shut up." The both of you shared a laugh.
Tumblr media
Joker stepped outside to make some calls to ensure his plans for the night went off without a hitch.
It was a bit of a risk to be out in public– especially where he was taking you, yet one he was willing to take if it helped boost your confidence. Your self esteem was at an all time low and you were having thoughts that weren't befitting the new nickname he wanted to test out.
He wasn't lying when he said you were a goddess meant to be cherished and worshipped.
Tonight would be a mere glimpse of what he would do for the rest of your life— if you'll have him.
He lit up a few cigs in between calls and before he knew it, time had gotten away from him. Joker stepped back inside to check on you.
A lady on the showroom floor said you were finishing up with makeup so he took care of the bill while he waited. You wouldn't let him hear the end of it if he didn't actually pay.
He was eyeing a display case of designer handbags when an employee cleared her throat to get his attention. Joker sent her a sharp glare over his shoulder.
Something about those abnormally green eyes frightened her. "Ahh uh.. she's.. your date is ready s-sir."
He loved scaring people, that would never change no matter how closely he embraced the light.
Joker followed the associate to a waiting room although he didn't have to wait for long, you were already walking in like the ethereal deity you are.
The dress by itself was stunning but in his absence you donned a pair of drop earrings, your wrist was adorned with gold, and the hair team did a phenomenal job in taming your curls. Your hair was beautiful on a normal day but they combed out any knots and let it cascade down in its natural curl pattern. It was elegantly styled but pinned back to allow your jewelry and natural beauty to be the main focus.
If you wore makeup they did an outstanding job highlighting your natural features.
If you preferred a more natural approach, Joker smirked at the subtle lip gloss on your plump lips. He wanted to kiss it off but all in good time. The next time he claimed your lips he wanted you to be a willing participant.
You declined a handbag since you left the penthouse with only your keys and phone in hand and Joker was currently carrying both for you. Imagine your surprise when you discovered your evening gown had pockets. It was a blessing from above that it was the one for you.
All in all, you looked breathtaking and you had an ounce of confidence to yourself.
You walked over, smiling faintly at Joker. He was ever the gentleman, bowing at the waist and kissing the back of your hand before offering you his arm.
The employees who were gathered looked on in awe. It was something out of a fairy tale, the two of you looked so perfect together! If only they knew it was the infamous Joker who was spoiling you and not some average guy.
As if you wanted a normal man after being with Joker.
You giggled to yourself as J escorted you out of Tashio's and towards a car waiting on the curb.
A driver held the door open and you slid inside with Joker following behind you. "Are ya hungry, Bunny?" He asked as you got settled.
You urged him to put his seatbelt on and he did so with a dramatic roll of his eyes. The things he did for you.. First he legally pays for a service, the next he wears a seatbelt. Would you somehow convince him to file his taxes next?
If you asked, he'd consider it.
A few hours had passed since leaving the apartment and it was nearing dinner time. You had worked up an appetite after shopping and then sitting in a hair stylist chair for so long.
"Yeah dinner sounds good."
Joker played with your chain bracelet as the car drove off to his plans for the night. His special surprise burned inside of his pocket but he would wait until a better time arose to present it to you. He didn't like your prolonged silence though.
He hoped you weren't thinking negatively and digging yourself into a funk. "Hey," Joker called your name.
You tore your eyes from the traffic outside the window and met endless pools of green "Hm?"
"You ok?" He asked.
You grabbed Joker's hand, intertwining it with your own and admired the color contrast. Joker didn't care that his tan skin clashed with your darker brown, he was too busy celebrating this mini victory.
You initiated physical contact with him. He was overjoyed when he kissed your hand and you didn't flinch.
"I will be." 'Now that I have you.' You thought the last bit to yourself.
His gaze never left your face until the driver announced the two of you had arrived. You were curious and excited to see why Joker had you all dressed up. He stepped out of the car first and turned around to help you out.
Your heels clicked as they settled on the sideway in front of a tall stone building alit from within.
Then it all made sense why you were dressed to the nines.
You heard about the place but never knew where it was located. Another Michelin star restaurant hidden in the heart of The Bowery district with a ridiculously long wait list and allegedly, a menu well worth the wait.
You had no doubt that Joker threatened someone, (or worse) to get a table on such short notice.
Joker watched your eyes sparkle in awe as he guided you inside the restaurant. He stopped at the hostess booth to whisper something in their ear but you were distracted by the ambiance.
You were quick to notice that the space used to be an old ballroom but was converted over time into a restaurant.
The ceiling still had its picturesque artwork and elaborate crown molding but the pièces de résistance was the live tree growing in the middle of the room. Its branches provided a much needed element of greenery amidst all the glamor and acted as a natural privacy divider for the surrounding tables.
It defied all logic by thriving amongst marble and stone and a massive two story chandelier hung above it, casting an ethereal glow on the healthy leaves and the people seated below it. The place was filled with magic.
You turned your head when a male appeared and addressed you and Joker.
"Ahem, your table is waiting."
He patiently waited for you and J to follow him. On the far side of the room, a giant spiral staircase winded up so close to the chandelier, you could reach out and touch the glass beads. Joker grabbed your wrist before you could.
He didn't want you reaching too far over the railing and risk hurting yourself. You were way too clumsy for your own good.
The second story of the ballroom overlooked the restaurant below and you were stunned by the more intimate seating available up here.
Unlike downstairs, each table was spread further out from the others by vine dividers, giving a guest the feeling of a space all to themselves. Joker made sure his table was well off from the others so he could remove his mask in peace.
Not like anyone could see him with the soft candlelight casting shadows everywhere but he wasn't about to take any chances.
The waiter presented the private area with a flourish of his arms. The tablecloth was stark white and fine china sat overtop along with candles, fresh flora, and silverware– ready to enjoy. There was a perfect blend of elegance and greenery that matched the restaurant's overall aesthetic.
Joker glared at the waiter who tried to hold a chair out for you. Joker waited until he was gone before removing his mask. Then you finally got to see his scarred lips tugging up in a smile.
You sat down and let Joker push you towards the table however; you jumped when he left a kiss on the back of your neck. Joker mumbled out a sorry right as another water approached the table with a pitcher of water.
He poured you a glass and handed you and Joker menus, "Welcome to Eden. I will be your only server tonight."
He nodded at Joker and you surmised that J paid him off.
Not many people could stomach seeing Joker and his scars or turn a blind eye to a known fugitive being out in public. The NDA check must be huge.
You opened the menu and scanned it over. Everything sounded delicious but you couldn't decide what to get even after the waiter walked off to give you some time.
You glanced over the top of your menu at Joker. He had yet to look at tonight's selection. He couldn't take his eyes off of you and sent a lazy smile your way when you caught him staring.
Your ears were burning with how much he made you flustered. You fiddled with your earrings and focused back on the menu until Joker spoke up.
"Get whatever ya want, Bunny. If you don't li-ke it.. I'll uhh, give it to your security." You tilted your head in confusion so he elaborated. "You can't see them but four men are guarding us right now sooooo order whatever you wanT."
You shifted in your seat and coyly glanced around the room.
No one looked out of place in the posh atmosphere but you knew Joker wouldn't lie about something so serious. You hadn't forgotten about that mysterious envelope from the beach house.
Someone had Joker spooked and he wasn't about to mess around with your safety. It meant everything to him. Unfortunately it was another thing to worry about. As if you needed more stress on your plate.
You shook your head and read a promising entree but your attention was distracted by Joker's fingers playfully walking around the white tablecloth getting closer and closer to you.
You bit back a smile and glanced at J who was having a grand time playing around. The candlelight cast a glow on his tanned skin that made him more handsome than usual. You rested your hand on the table and he wasted no time brushing his pinky finger against yours.
Joker's jade eyes darted up to your e/c eyes. "Whatcha gettin?"
"Huh?" You were expecting him to ask you something else, not that. "Oh.. uh I don't know yet."
In seconds, Joker snatched your hand up into his hold and fixed you with a heated stare. "Need some help, doll?"
How was his hand so warm or maybe why were yours so cold? You barely nodded but you saw Joker grin. Nothing got past his perceptive eye.
He leaned over and pointed out some good choices and really sold you on what to order.
For all you knew, Joker was the head chef with how he explained each entree and he painted a clear picture of what you'd get if you ordered it. You decided on an appetizer while your main course cooked and Joker ordered something you couldn't even pronounce with a glass of dark liquor.
You didn't know Joker drank but he polished off the glass– not once letting go of your hand.
He never let go, even when the first course arrived. Joker surprised you yet again by dragging your chair closer to his.
"This okay?" He asked after seeing you tense up in your seat.
You were fine being across from Joker but now you sat side by side. Your bare leg brushed up against his suit and it made goosebumps break out over your skin. This was Joker, not your ex. You had to trust J and give him a chance. He didn't deserve to be iced out for someone else's mistakes.
That was the mantra you told yourself as the waiter returned to refill the glasses with water.
You and Joker shared the appetizer over light banter and he caught you up on what he did for the last few days. He was leading up to his trip to the jewelers and what he purchased, when the main entree arrived at the table.
You missed Joker's irritated growl but the night was still young. He had plenty of time to show off the gift he bought you.
You were about to start eating but Joker took your utensils and cut up your main entree for you. It was an odd gesture but Joker wasn't deterred by your confusion. He just patiently waited until you opened your mouth to feed you.
"How does it taste?" He asked in between bites with that raspy tone you knew all too well.
It stirred up butterflies in your stomach and made you feel wanted but it was neither the time nor the place for such emotions.
The food lived up to its coveted reviews. No wonder people waited months to a year for a reservation. Each morsel melted in your mouth and had you craving for more.
You didn't know how Joker fed you and still had the time to eat himself but he was not playing around with his whole, spoil you rotten agenda.
Who knew being fed could be so hot? If anyone else tried such a thing, you would be insulted but because Joker was the one doing it, it was sensual and thrilling. He watched your lips each time you accepted a bite and the little hums you made were driving him insane.
And when he (purposefully) missed and got a bit of sauce on your face, he groaned watching your tongue dart out to lick it clean.
He wanted to do that but he didn't know if he was allowed to.
You let him hold your hand all night but there was still a wary gleam lingering in your eye. He kissed you back at your apartment with no issues but when he kissed the back of your neck at the dinner table, you jumped. Your mood changed like the wind. Joker honestly didn't know how to approach you after discovering the truth.
He didn't want to scare you but he wanted you so bad. How could he seduce you when you were hardly in the mood?
"J? D-Did you hear me? I asked if I could order dessert." you called his name again to get his attention.
He must've lost track of time while thinking. You were gazing up into his candlelit emeralds waiting for an answer. All the plates were clear of food and Joker wondered how he failed to notice such a crucial detail..
You said his name again and squeezed his hand. J was quick to reply. "Uh yeah. Do ya know–"
You cut him off, "I want the Gotham City style cheesecake with a raspberry compote and um c-can you get the tiramisu? I wanna try it and.. the macaroons." If only you were this decisive when it came to picking dinner.
He chuckled to himself but flagged down the waiter to put in the order. "Say the woo~ord and it's yours, Goddess."
The new nickname punched you straight in the gut.
Joker was distracted but you still stared at him in disbelief. He didn't use a nickname that he didn't think was befitting of you and that fact made you tear up. Even after knowing the truth, he still held you in such high regard.
Joker was finishing up ordering your trio of desserts when he heard the one sound that could bring him to his knees. The sound of you crying.
The candlelight highlighted a tear rolling down your cheek and he quickly wiped it away to preserve your beauty. He was about to ask what was bothering you when you spoke up.
"D-Don't say it if you don't m-mean it.." You shook your head. "I can't take it if you don't mean it."
So you heard his new nickname for you. Joker felt now was the right time as any.
Joker kept silent as he reached into his pocket and pulled out a box. It was wrapped in your favorite color with a big white bow on top.
"What... is this for me?"
Joker nodded mutely and pushed it closer to you.
He wasn't giving you anything to go on so you were left to grab the box and tear it open. An official Jacob and Co. box was inside and you popped open the lid only to gasp seeing the custom jewelry inside.
"J..." You marveled at the tiny gold lighthouse with a real diamond serving as the beam of light cushioned on black velvet. You were going to read out the inscription along the base but Joker beat you to it.
"My Light in a sea of darkness.' You can doubt all you want but there's no mistaking what you are to me. You're my Light, my goddess. What more could I ever need?"
You were at a loss for words, staring into Joker's sincere gaze. He didn't stumble or stress any syllables; his words were raw and meant to soothe your soul with their honesty.
His smile was faint when he stood up to fasten your new necklace on. It was cold at first but it settled perfectly on the swallow of your collarbone. He nodded to himself seeing it on you and his fond grin caused more tears to form.
You probably looked ridiculous crying in the middle of a ritzy restaurant but it was all you could do after such a declaration.
Right as you were parting your lips to speak, an orchestra on the main floor let a few test notes float through the air. The last thing you were expecting was live music and Joker smirked at your bewildered face.
"Would ya like to dance?" Joker asked, changing the subject.
It took you a few seconds to recover. "I-I... I didn't see a dance floor."
The orchestra began playing a sultry instrumental and you noticed a few couples making their way down to the main floor to dance. You were cross on if you wanted to go although Joker was already reaching for his mask to cover back up.
"Sweetheart, we're in a ballroom you can dance anywhere buuut my question is.... Do you want to?" He stood up and straightened his suit. Who was this dapper man? It couldn't be the same Joker that terrorized Gotham City daily.
Joker really transformed into a different person when he was with you. You were the only soul who would see him this way. He put so much trust in you; it was high time you returned the favor.
Your dessert was soon forgotten as you placed your hand in Joker's.
He guided you down the stairs towards the main floor where a designated area was cleared away. The musicians were mid song when Joker led you into the crowd.
You stumbled in your heels as Joker swept you up into his embrace. You were nearly eye level with the madman with the added height and Joker loved the newfound connection more than anything. However there was a mischievous gleam in his eye that gave you pause.
A new song began, one you quickly recognized. Your head shot up to stare at the musicians playing. There was a mixture of ethnicities so it was plausible they were current with various genres and artists but still..
It wouldn't be hard for Joker to put in a request when you weren't looking.
Joker paid you no mind as he swayed you gently in between the other couples. You were speechless when Joker began to hum the lyrics with confidence.
You didn't know that Joker could sing. He didn't look the type yet he constantly surprised you. His voice reminded you of the old crooners that your uncle used to play on his record when you used to visit.
"They don't make music like this no mo Y/n/n!" Uncle Cedrick obviously never heard Givēon before. New artists were making classic tunes sound more and more popular these days.
Somewhere in between the intro and the first verse, Joker decided to sing along and let the lyrics take hold. He looked so sure of himself yet he stumbled on a line when he noticed that you were staring.
He spun you further away from the crowd so you could hear him serenade you better. His voice floated into your ear like honey.
But I can't make a scene, but I can't make it seem
Like I want you...
Even if it's true...
Even if it's true.
You panicked when Joker let out a shaky sigh and dropped his head in the crook of your neck. There was no way you were mistaken here. "Joker?"
"Shhh. Just..." He moved your hand to rest above his heart. More tears blurred your vision when you felt Joker's heartbeat.
It was beating like a drum.
Sometimes he wished you knew but he could disguise the truth for as long as it takes. Were you really so blind to Joker's feelings? And you called yourself a romance writer. Your radar was supposed to be impeccable on picking up love!
The chandelier overhead twinkled down on the two of you like diamonds and it felt as if no one else was in the room except you and Joker.
You were broken, damaged goods and Joker originally believed he was incapable of love, yet he found the will when it came to you. He waited so long for something good to come his way and finally– he had it.
You might think otherwise but Joker knew you were absolute perfection in his eyes. You were worth the wait. In time you would open up and love him unconditionally. He knew that now.
It was selfish and wrong of him to pressure you into anything. If he did then he'd be no better than your ex. The last thing you needed was history to repeat itself. What you needed was time and space to heal.
Joker nodded to himself and regrettably let you go. You were confused when he stopped dancing and looked away.
"Mm, your dessert is probably at the uh table. Let's head back."
He was shutting you out and that would not do. You put your foot down and tugged on Joker's wrist. He looked at you with an arched brow.
You didn't care that you were in the middle of the ballroom.
You were tired of Joker changing the subject at the drop of a hat! You were tired of being sheltered from your pain. It was time you accepted it and finally moved on– moved onto someone better. You were not going to let Joker walk away.
It was time you threw caution to the wind. The song was ending and your heart echoed the lyrics Givēon sang.
But if you really love me, say it now.
You shortened the distance and cupped Joker's face. He hated that he shied away from your touch. He didn't want to get his hopes up if you were just reacting to mend his hurt feelings. He wanted you to be sincere with your affection.
"T-Take me home, tell me in the space we created– but. Please don't give up on me when I need you more than ever. I-I.. I need you, J. I do."
You clung onto the back of his neck and urged him to bend down. You couldn't rest your forehead against his until he leaned down to your height. He did and you locked eyes with him right there on the ballroom floor.
Your eyes pleaded with Joker. They spoke a thousand words you were so afraid to speak aloud. He searched your colored eyes for a glimmer of hope and found so much more.
It was then you had the pleasure of seeing a man like Joker break.
His eyes fluttered closed and it took everything in his power not to fall to his knees in front of all these people. All in due time, but first he had to get you home.
He made an odd motion with his hands and in seconds, he was whisking you towards the exit. You squeaked in shock and you barely kept up with Joker's long strides.
"J, w-what about the bill?! M-My dessert!"
He growled and pushed the restaurant doors open. The temperature had dropped the past hour or two that you and Joker were indoors and your bare arms shivered once exposed to the elements.
Joker shrugged off his suit jacket and gave it to you. He had a crazed look in his eyes as he waited on the curb.
"Don't care. I'm takin' ya home." He shot you a heated glare, "You'll get your dessert, Princess."
You couldn't recall the last time he used that nickname but it made a smile break out over your face and a liquid fire seep into your core.
It had been too long since you felt a burning desire spread all over. You couldn't lie. You were a little scared but this was Joker. He wouldn't do anything you didn't want. And you wanted him.
A black unmarked car screeched to a halt near the curb. It was hardly in park when Joker yanked the door open for you. "Get in, Bunny."
You knew once you got inside there would be no turning back. You could do this and so with a deep breath, you embraced the unknown.
Tumblr media
There was enough sexual tension brewing in the elevator to fuel a bomb.
Surprisingly, Joker behaved himself during the ride back to your apartment yet he practically chased you to the main elevator the second the car arrived at the lobby drop off.
You could only run so fast in heels yet you beat Joker inside.
You broke out into a smile as the elevator doors began to trap you inside with the clown. He tossed a lecherous grin your way and was seconds away from jumping your bones, when the doors slid back open and one of your neighbors walked in.
She did a double take at Joker but quickly recovered to smile at you. Her eyes widened even more after taking in your elegant ball gown.
"Oh wow Y/n! That dress looked stunning on you! I hope you enjoyed your night."
She mashed the button for the ninth floor and brought attention to the time glowing on the panel. It was nearing eleven pm. You hardly noticed that it was so late.
The elevator lights glinted against your jewelry and caught her eye. "Aww that's so cute! It's a little lighthouse. Do you like the beach or something?" She gestured to your necklace.
You laughed awkwardly, "Oh I've only been once but I loved it."
Joker chuckled under his breath and gained your neighbor's attention.
She eyed him up and down but kept her thots to herself. She'd never seen you around with a partner before but sheesh, you knew how to pick em. The man was so fine, he should be illegal.
She dragged her eyes away from Joker and back over to you. "Really? Just once? What was your favorite part? I love sunbathing myself."
Of all the neighbors in the building, why did miss blabbermouth known for her lengthy mindless chats have to board the elevator tonight?
You knew Joker was probably thinking a million and one ways to kill the poor lady. Hopefully he could steady his hands for a few more levels.
You thought back to her question and frowned. You couldn't remember anything remarkable about the beach. You loved it for different reasons.
Mainly the way Joker took you so passionately in the sand or how the light from the rotating coastal structure illuminated his raw beauty for only you to see. You couldn't tell her you didn't visit the beach during the day like a normal person.
Your visit to the beach was memorable because of your carnal escapade with Joker under the stars.
Joker declared you as his Light, the same namesake that now proudly hung from your neck. You couldn't tell her any of that so you made something up on the spot.
"I um, I liked the heat? It was... hot. Sweltering."
Joker failed to stifle his laughter and your neighbor glared at the both of you sideways. Such an odd answer..
Thankfully the lift arrived at the ninth floor and she ended the idle chat. "Alright then, well enjoy the rest of your night, Y/n. Oh and don't forget! We have the next tenant meeting coming up this week! Bring your friend."
She winked at Joker but he could care less. His eyes were glued on you.
The elevator doors closed and resumed its ascent to your private floor. It was so quiet in the metal box, you could hear your uneven breathing.
You glanced at Joker out of the corner of your eye but he was frozen like a statue. You honestly expected him to jump you the second your neighbor was gone but since when was Joker predictable?
Your focus was on the floor indicator as it displayed the tenth floor. Almost there..
Joker waited until you least expected it to make his move.
It was concerning yet electrifying to know you were alone with Joker, completely at his mercy. The lift was passing the maintenance floor when Joker stepped behind you to inhale your unique scent.
His nose faintly brushed the sensitive skin along the nape of your neck and you shivered. Then his hot exhale disturbed the hairs on your neck. He was doing all of this on purpose.
He wanted to torture you, it was the only explanation for the tumultuous tease that was Joker kissing you right where the clasp of your necklace met your skin. You swore his teeth tugged the chain a bit, when the doors dinged open.
The air was getting way too stuffy so you stumbled out as quickly as you could.
Joker's chuckle echoed in the short hallway to your front door. He took his time strolling behind you like a predator and patiently waited as you fumbled with the keys. He lost count how many times you dropped them or missed the keyhole entirely.
Eventually you unlocked the door, however you didn't venture inside. There was an unspoken command in the air not to. Joker was glad that you heeded the warning.
Joker's hand covered yours atop the doorknob. You were frozen in place as he bent down to whisper in your ear.
"When you walk through that door.. you're mine. There's. No. Going. Back. Anything you want, I'll give it to ya but you have to ask for it. If it's uh, too much, say the woo~oord and I'll give you more. Tonight's about you, only you.. buT, I gotta warn ya. I will be selfish and take and take... and take."
You whimpered when Joker nipped the curve of your ear.
The sting was nothing compared to the heat pooling in your core. You surprised yourself with how aroused you were and Joker had yet to begin. It was as if he could tell just how antsy you were. His sudden burst of laughter was strained by his lust.
"Are ya ready for that Y/n? I won't hold back. I uh... well I don't think I can." He pressed you further into the door with his body and you felt his erection dig into your lower back.
"Do you want me?" He asked while kissing your shoulder.
You could do this. All you had to do was open the door.
No more pretending, no more running away when things got too intense. You had to fully participate this time and not drift off into a headspace. Tonight you would give all of yourself over to a man known for his maddening greed. It was scary; however, you were oddly enthusiastic.
You wanted him to have it all. To have you.
You turned the doorknob and walked into your foyer with a madman hot on your heels.

Silent Dancer (Rami Malek x Reader)
Tumblr media
Description: One of your father’s circus actors is trying to impress you.
Notes: so this ones honestly  weird as fuck. it appeared to me likea vision and id ont know where its going WC: 2.8k
+
There were a number of things you disapproved of when it came to your father’s circus. First, though certainly not least, the nature of the exhibits shown were nothing short of degrading and dehumanizing, displaying the crippled, the misfortunate, and even ‘strange’, dark skinned children from the Congo.
Most of the main acts, however, were alright. It was a dangerous profession, but everyone who signed up for it already knew that.
Generally, due to mistreatment, low wages, and the simple nature of circuses, you didn’t often visit your father’s circus. That and the fact that it travelled around quite a lot while you were stuck attending university in Pennsylvania. Still, when your father invited you to an evening while his circus was in the state, you hesitantly agreed in your letter to him. Caution would always have to be taken when dealing with your father.
You sat next to him, your hands folded neatly in your lap as the ringmaster appeared from a veiled doorway, eliciting cheers from the onlookers. Many were children with their parents, but others appeared to be rather young or very old couples.
From your spot in the box seats, you could watch with mild interest the entirety of the ringmasters speech, and the ensuing clowns who came out juggling molotov cocktails. Gasps of awe came from the crowd along with the delighted shrieks of children. The flaming ends of the bottles illuminated the otherwise dark tent, bringing color to the stripes that led to the tall, wooden pike holding the whole of the tent up.  You chuckled at their theatrics.
“How long have you had this announcer?” You asked, leaning into your fathers ear without your eyes ever leaving the act.
“A few months now, I believe. Why?”
“Nothing. He just looks like he still cares about this, so I thought he must be new,” you said.
Your father frowned but said nothing.
Tightrope walking came next. The tall, wooden poles acted as a tiny safe space upon which the walkers could easily stand, readying for their daily jaunt across death's door. Sure, the net below would catch them, but the heart attack that falling would cause was enough to make you shrivel up.
First a woman went, her long legs shown off by a skirt that went no lower than her hips, and long, white stockings that covered the rest. She wore small, high-heeled pumps, a fact that curled your fingers.
After her came a man whose face was painted entirely white save for a few details, such as a perfectly circular red blush, dark eyes, and a stripe down his chin. He stood atop the highest rung in the pole, displaying himself with wide open arms and bowed at the resounding cheers. The clothes he wore were nothing like those of the last tightrope walker; while she wore quite a lot of lace and frills, this man appeared to be more in the makeup of a mime than of a professional entertainer or the clowns, while sporting a sleek, silver type of body suit. His lean frame was nothing like that of the earlier strongmen either, and the tight clothes gave you little room for imagination.
He took his first step in shoes with about two inches of heel, holding his hands out on either side in a gentle manner, never wavering or depending upon them for balance.
To your immense surprise, his next step wasn't merely a step forward––he began to twirl, like a ballerina, balanced on the toes of one foot weighing on a thin rope. You sucked in a sharp gasp as he continued across in similar fashion, dancing 20 feet above the ground. Cheers sprouted up all around the watching crowd, enough for the dancer to break into a smile, but never bringing him to speak.
At the end he jumped and landed on the wooden platform, bowing once more to the adulating crowd. He scanned across the circle of onlookers, his gaze stopping at the sight of his boss, sitting next to the most beautiful person he'd ever seen.
When his eyes met yours you were sure you didn't breathe. His expression turned dark, shadowed by a strange sense of curiosity at the mere sight of you. You imagined him without his makeup.
Something about that excited you.
In the eveningtime, after a full two hours of watching the circus acts, your father took you walking through the travelling tents within which the actors and stuntmen lived during their time on the road. Outside of the colorful tarps, however, were cages of foreign and exotic animals, as well as tricksters practicing their craft, throwing swords high in the air and swallowing them as they came down.
You kept your hands folded in front of you as you walked, wary of any danger the unicyclists or lion tamers with whips might pose. Your father kept you close as well, a gesture you appreciated for once, though you still recalled the over-protectiveness he held over you when you were living with him.
"This is Alfred," your father said, having stopped you in front of a tall man in a black and red suit, "Alfred Derasmo. Our entertainer of the night."
Alfred bowed to you with his cape in hand.
"Not a bad job tonight, son. Gotta get louder though," he said.
"Could you understand me?" Alfred asked.
"I never do," your father returned before promptly leaving without bothering a good-bye.
You had to a double-take to wonder if that's what he actually said, but in the end you quickly apologized to Alfred beneath your breath before running off after your father.
"That wasn't very nice," you said after catching up with him.
"I don't get payed to be nice to my workers," he said quietly. "I get payed to make sure they have a semblance of a good show."
Your father continued on through his employees, commenting on a few of their acts and offering pointers based on the reactions of the audience. A couple of times he suggested more fire. He suggested higher ropes about six times, and 'more clowns' twice. To a few of the women and clowns he asked for starker makeup.
"Nice work today," he said to another man you only glanced at, your attention ruptured by a nearby juggler on a unicycle with flaming bottles.
That hadn't been part of the show.
No response from the man.
"I think you should switch your shoes up," your father continued. "Ballet shoes'd be better."
You finally turned, seemingly at the same time the stranger's eyes turned to you, as well.
It was the tightrope dancer, his makeup and outfit still entirely intact. His eyes widened as he recognized you, and he near immediately bowed low, opening his crossed arms gracefully to take your hand. When he pressed a soft kiss to the back of your hand, a small 'oh' escaped you in a breath. He never tore his gaze from you.
"Okay, that's enough of that," your father interrupted, curtly shoving the dancer away. "This is Remi. He's a mute from France."
"You know not to call them that," you chided him. "It's nice to meet you. I enjoyed your act quite a lot."
He smiled but his lips didn't split––just drew back tighter and accentuated his long eyelashes.
Your father muttered something you didn't quite hear––not that you cared to, anyway––and left to tend to a situation that apparently required his yelling skills.
Before you could think to say anything, Remi took your hand again, the soft, white satin encircling your cold fingers. He tugged and you followed, though you couldn't quite place why.
He took you past a few other performers before you were confronted by the tightrope walkers––three women and two men, including Remi.
"Oh, hello," one of the ladies said, turning to you curiously. Her eyes darted to Remi as she said, "I see you've made a friend."
Remi nodded, using his hold on your hand to pull you in, twirling you about in a rush of endorphins that faded to find you with your back pressed to his chest. Whatever he'd done appeared to be a sort of language, as understanding hums and cadences came from his friends. He released you with a grin, laughing silently.
"A good friend," another woman said as she nodded, giving a 'discreet' wink in Remi's direction.
"My name is Enrico," said the dark-skinned man, offering his hand for you to shake, which you did.
The three women introduced themselves as well, giving their names––Josephine, Marcel, and Elisha. They also asked your opinion on the show, though you knew they were only being polite for their job.
"I've been quite spoiled when it comes to this. My father, he's the owner," you said, watching as their stature grew a little stiffer. "So I've seen many circus routine. I like the pacing of this one, though; steady, entertaining, breathable."
"Your father is Edgar Browning?" Enrico asked with crossed arms, his brow raised in a more curious way than accusing.
"Unfortunately," you chuckled gingerly, toying with your hair as they laughed.
"He's... not the kindest, but he keeps us running," he said. "Did he introduce you two?"
You nodded.
"Mm, then you should know his name's actually Rami, not Remi. Boss gets it mixed up 'cause he's from France but he's uh... Egyptian, I believe," he said, giving Rami a hard look-over before his gaze turned back to you.
"Oh," you glanced to the dancer, "I like that name."
He smiled, spun, and bowed, earning soft chuckles from his tiny audience. His nervous smile broke into a toothy grin when he met your blushing face, and his eyes immediately fell down to the floor in an almost shy manner.
Soon Rami was back to pulling you along amongst the bustling stage crew and costumes being hurried from one place to the next. He introduced you to more people, including one of the lion tamers, several jugglers, and a couple women from the sideshow act. At the end of the rows, he led you into a much smaller, dimmer tent. The inside was shrouded mostly in darkness until he buttoned open a window, allowing you to see his travelling home.
He didn't own much. Not that you expected him to, all things considered, but he had a world map pinned to the fabric wall, and a small gramophone beside his shoddy bed. He leant over to the brass speaker while you looked around, eventually standing in front of his map.
"Where are you from?" You asked, hesitating before you turned to him.
He blinked for a moment, but soon came over and pointed to northern Africa; Egypt.
"Is that where you grew up?"
He shook his head. Tapping once more on the Nile, he drew his finger upwards, landing in France. Another tap on the map and he moved to Louisiana, then to Chicago, where your father grew up.
"I see," you murmured. "Did you–"
You spun around to ask him another question, but were left stuttering as music began, Rami's hand once more offered to you. The tunes of a bright melody drifted into your mind as you hesitantly took his hand, setting careful fingers over his white gloves.
He pulled you along near immediately, taking you in his arms wrapped tight around your waist. You giggled, a sight that brought a longing look into the dancer's eye, twirling you round and spinning you back into his hold. His hand moved from the crook of your waist downwards, dragging a heated touch low onto your hip and down towards your thigh. A soft 'oh' escaped your lips as long fingers drew inwards, curling around the soft skin on the inside of your thigh, and digging in tightly as his other hand moved to encircle your waist.
From that position he dipped you, laying you low to the ground with a steady grace envied by even the best dancers. His hand round your leg allowed him to prop you up on his own bent knee. Music continued to waltz around you, but it was dim beneath the roaring of your heart, and the feeling of his eyes––and his touch––burning your skin. His cheek pressed to yours as a loud sax sung a bright ditty, lowering you with him before he sprung up and dragged you with.
"You don't have to prove yourself to me," you blurted out with a chuckle.
He faltered for a moment, his brow knotted in curiosity. Once he pulled you back up to a standing position all touch ceased, his hands returning to his sides, and his head tilted to the side as he stared at you. He looked to be in deep thought.
"I'm already impressed at what you've done," you clarified, but that didn't seem to help him much, either.
He approached you again, this time with much less grace and much more hesitation, and raised his hand when he stood no more than a foot away from you, silently asking you for permission for something you didn't even know yet. At first you were unsure of what he was doing, but after a few pointed looks you mirrored his actions. His gaze was glued to your hands as he reached for you, entwining your fingers––his still gloved––and warming your already heated skin with a soft smile.
By the time he leased you from the breathless dance, dipping and spinning you in such ways that his fingers always ran up your bare skin, the music had stopped. Touch separated the two of you by only a single barrier; those damned gloves.
You stared at one another, your noses almost touching.
"You're quite an interesting person, do you know that?" You asked, breaking out into a smile.
He nodded and you laughed again.
He did all sorts of things after that––always while you were watching, of course. The earlier advice your father had given was heeded, and the next time you saw him balancing on the precipice of bruises and broken bones, he was tip-toeing across in ballet shoes. But the moment he realized you were in the audience, he jumped. He jumped a length of the rope, landing on flat feet but landing on the rope nonetheless. It was a clearly unchoreographed move, as the circus folk below the catching net gasped right along with the crowd, hands slapping over agape mouths.
You weren't ashamed to admit you let out a little yelp, as well.
Later that same evening you found him surrounded by his peers in the dining tent, loud conversation surrounding the silent man. Most of what you heard was congratulations––praise for a feat of daring stupidity. You could just barely see his grin through the crowd as you leant against one of the tent poles, but when he managed to catch your eye, his smile beamed tenfold. He motioned you over and you slowly made your way through the people.
"You scared the living daylights out of me," you chuckled once you were standing in front of him.
"That's his job," one of the weightlifters said, earning laughs from all around.
Regardless of your hazy laugh, he took your hand, bowing to kiss the back of it once more. With a soft smile stretched cross his rosy lips, he pulled you closer to him and held you to his chest.
You chuckled, too starstruck to do much else.
Attention seemed to dissipate from him as the two of you turned your own attentions to one another. Your hands remained in his, so it was easy for him to guide you out of the tent, taking you into a world enshrouded in night's curtain. Distant city-lights assured the milky way stayed hidden, but brighter stars still dotted a dim, summer sky.
He looked as though he had something to tell you––something to communicate that his disability wouldn't allow.
"What is it you want to say?" You asked with a soft laugh, resting your hands on his waist.
His hand came up to cradle your neck, but he hesitated, his gaze darting down to your lips and back up to your eyes. He sucked in a sharp breath before he surged forward, tentatively kissing you with such delicate force that your heart rumbled like an earthquake in your chest. Just as destructive. His other hand rested on the crook between your jaw and your neck, pulling you gently into him as his lips moved against yours.
You hummed softly as you melted into nothing in his touch.
"I..." you pulled away only as much as you needed to speak, "I can't believe you're good at all those acrobatics and you're a good kisser. It seems a little unfair to others."
He just grinned and looked down, pressing his forehead against yours, and keeping you close.

hello 👋🏻 i was wondering if you could write different kissing/kisses scenarios with Jonathan? just tooth rotting fluff, maybe a desperate kiss where they feel they might lose one another or something yanno? THANK YOU ILYILY
YES!!!
Note I don't have access to my laptop, that's why this time is a bit different, so I'm sorry if this came out weird because I'm typing it from my phone.
Either was I hope you enjoy!
((LOOK AT THOSE LIPS!!.. I'D KISS HIM!!))
Tumblr media
• Morning Kiss
Jonathan groaned annoyingly at the one ray of sun light that was able to escape the dark heavy curtains of the equally dark room. His first instinct was to get up from the bed, move to the curtains ,and close them properly. However, that was all forgotten when her realized the small weight that pressed his arm to the bed, he smiled as he looked down at your sleeping face. Carefully, Jonathan layed back down, ignoring the light that woke him up and focused at you. He has said how he loved the look of fear in people's faces, but when he is with you he wants to see nothing but your smiles and the peaceful look you have now as upu slept. Leaning down, he gently pressed his lips to yours and proceeded to shower you with kiss, when he heard your giggles it encouraged him to keep going, until you are fully up, which would take a while. The master of fear had always preferred the night, but since he met you he started to love mornings even more.
•Angry Kiss
"Fuck You!" You yelled before turning away to leave to your room.
"(Y/n), please wait!" Called Jonathan and he walked after you.
"No!" You said mot stopping as you went up the stairs. "You alway do that, you promise you'd make time for me everytime, and lile everytime I belive you, like an Idiot!"
When you were almost about to reach your room jonathan graped your wrist to stop you. It wasn't a strong hold, a gentle one that you could get free if you pulled your hand away hard enough. But you didn't and just stopped in your place but did not face him.
"I know I have been a terrible boyfriend to you, my love." He started. "I am so sorry,but please know that I am truely trying so hard to spend more time with you, but the Legion-"
"The Legion this, the Legion that, with how much you use them as an excuse you sound like a broken record!" You spat before pulling your arm away and faced him. He looked so guilty but you stood your ground. "I know your reputation as a villain is important, and I was ready to be patient through it all, when you have your all nighters, your meetings, and even when you get send to Arkham."
"My love-"
"7 MONTHS!!" He cut him off. "We haven't been able to be alone in the same room let alone set together for 7 months, I don't even remember that I have a boyfriend unless I see the news to see you in it!"
"I promise to be there more!" He said quickly. "I will take a break from the Legion, I will even take us on a vacation to that place you love so much, even if the Legion called me for assistant I will ignore them, I will be here for you for as long as you want me! "
All that didn't effect you because he said it all before, but what calmed your anger is what he said it next.
"Please...don't leave me."
His voice sounded so broken and lost. there was a pause between you two before you let out and angry groan, and get a hold of his shirt collar, which suprised him, and pulled him to you, where your crashed your lips to his. Jonathan was so lost and confused but he didn't pull away and gave in to you. The kiss was so agressive, heated, and before you pulled away you bit his lower lip making him wince in pain. The bute drew a bit of blood.
"You better keep your promise this time." You smirked. "Or I'll have to punish you~"
• Desperate Kiss
Like the joker you were Jonathan's Harley, but unlike the mad clown jonathan never abused you. In fact, he'd always keep you close to him at all times, you were his lab partner, the first head seek their opinion on his next plan, and whenever they'd face the batman, he'd send the henchmen to fight while dragging you with him to escape. There were couple of times where you were caught and sent to jail, and because you are not insane the judge would always send to spend time in regular jail for women which makes jonathan go into a frenzy, needing couple of guards to hold him down as the others took you away. Of course, the moment he escapes arkham he breaks you out the same night.
It wasn't long for a rumor to break loss of the two of you dating. You ignored it, which was hard considering how Harley and Ivy would poke you around to make you "Confess", which was never satisfying since your answer was always "We are not dating". The rumor became a reality, when jonathan confessed his love for you and asking you out for a date. Least to say, you were lovely dovey, even when your relationship lasted years, you still acted as if you were have become lovers recently. Despite the ups and Downs of being beaten by the bat, and seperated in court, you were happy.
Until that Halloween night, where Jonathan had planned something... really... Very ...bad. It was so bad that after you were caught and sentenced to jail for life as usual you found out from TV that Jonathan was sentenced to death. You felt your face grow pale and body grow cold at the news. He was being guarded by batman himself to assure he won't escape, that same night you had sever panic attack that they sent your to the infirmary to calm you down before you hurt yourself or others. You tried to escape by yourself but it always failed and ended up with you being beaten by the gaird and sent to solitary. One night a couple of guards took you away and sneaked you out of jail, you were confused by the lake of show, jonathan would put as he broke you out, but you were still excited, thinking he had escaped and came to get you. But was disappointed when you handed a letter from him telling you leave to the agreed location, and with it was tickets. The same day you escaped prison you left the country with the confident that Jonathan will come after you. Months past and you heard nothing from him or of him. Every day you'd go to the post office and asked if there was any letters by your "Fake Name" but every time nothing, you'd stay up at night thinking he'd be walking through the door every moment now.
After a whole year had and you broke down crying because by now you believed that jonathan had died a long time ago and you were hanging to a hope that wasn't there. You were crying so hard that you didn't notice the warm arms that wrapped around you until you were brought against a hard chest. You gasped and looked uo only to be met with tearful blue eyes of jonathan. You didn't think, you quickly wrapped your arms tightly around his neck and pulled him to a desperate kiss, he kissed you back as his hand went and and down your back to calm you down. When you stopped kissing you didn't pull away and only hugged him tighter and rested your head on his shoulder.
"P..Please ...don't go away.. " You begged between sniffs, thinking this was just a hallucination. "Don't leave me alone again."
Jonathan hugged you tighter, deeply regretting not giving a sign of him being alive, how he broke out, how he needed to do many favors for other villains to help him retire, obtain enough money to last you a life time,and live the peaceful life you both have ever dreamed of.
"I promise, I won't."
• Distracting Kiss
You came home from work excited. They finally gave you the vacation that you have been asking for and you wanted nothing more than to spend it with Jonathan. You were daydreaming about all the things you had planned for the both of you when you almost tripped and fell over something, you looked down and recognized the item as Jonathan's shos.
You let out a sigh. Everytime he leaves his shoes at the door like that, it means that he had hurried to his lab to work again. Normally you'd just shrug it off and just head off and make food for him so he won't starve himself... Again. However, today you will no have that. You put your things aside and went to the basement where he had set a mini lab for him to work in, his original lab was in his secret hideout, but he still set a lab in your home so he won't have to go back and forth over small things. You stopped at the end of the stairs and just stared at a hunched over jonathan who was writing on paper as if it was his last day.
"Jonathan." You called sweetly. He lifted his head to look at you and give you a tired smile before going back to his work. That didn't set well with you. "What are you doing?"
"I am working on a new formula for the fear toxin." He answered not noticing you coming closer. "It came to me on my way back home-"
He stopped talking, writing, and breathing when you wrapped your arms around him, and pressed your front ti his back. But that wasn't what made him stop functioning, it was the kisses you were placing in the back of his neck and with how your hand were moving around his body. He let out a sigh of pleasure that he couldn't hold in.
"(Y/n) dear... Please stop." His voice struggling. "I need to go back to work."
"And I need attention." You pressed your body on him more to be able to whisper in his ear. "A lot of it."
Jonathan tried to resist you could see it. He took his pen again and started to continue writing but this time slower than before. You held back a laugh at his determination, and decided to do your own testing, you started kissing up and down his neck. You knew all his weak spots and so it was only a matter of minutes before Jonathan gave up and turned around to give a direct kiss, which muffled your laughs as he lifted you up to your shared room where he will give you all the attention you want.
•Chaste Kiss
You and jonathan were setting together in the living room, you were watching whatever was on TV on the wide sofa, while he was reading in his seperated chair. Expect, he wasn't reading at all, he was staring at you while resting his head on his hand. You looked so beautiful, that he knew very well when he first saw you, but your beauty became even greater the moment he knew you more. You were so smart, sweet, kind, and most importantly patient. When he would be sent to arkham, when he would come injured from a failed crime attempt, when he made a lab in your basement. The list can go forever, yet she still stayed with him and when he asked her why she just answered with...
"I love you, that's why."
It bewildered him, confused him, he found no sense to give up all that for someone just because they loved them, but the warm feeling he felt by your words silenced everything else. He never told you those words, but that doesn't mean the feeling isn't mutual. His eyes trailed to her lips, which made him realize how in the past he hated any kind of physical touch, that just the mention of kissing made him feel disgust. But now he doesn't seem to have enough from her sweet kisses, even in their intimate moments he would make sure to ravish her lips the most... Aside from other areas.
"Why are you smiling?" You asked pulling him out of his train of thought, you also were smiling but he could also see a bit of blush obviously embarrassed by the realization that he was staring at her while smiling.
Jonathan didn't answer, he careful closed his book and got up and left to the other room, missing the pout you had, but it was quickly replaced with bewilderment as he came back after putting his book away, and instead of setting back in his chair he went to set next to her. (Y/n) still looked confused but pleased, he smiled down at her before placing his hand on her cheek and leaned in to kiss her. He could feel her tense in surprise before quickly relaxing. The kiss wasn't heated or deep, just a simple and gentl kiss.
"Jonathan, what-" you tried to asked after the two of you pulled away but he cut you off with un expected words.
"I love you." He said as he stared into her wide eyes.
He never said those words for he preferred his actions to speak louder, but those simple words seemed to please his lover quite a lot.
•Unexpected Kiss
"Shit!" You exclaimed as you jumped up from your desk and started gathering papers and other items from your desk. Jonathan who once in a while would visit your office for a coffee break looked confused if not surprised by hearing you curse.
"What's the matter?" He asked as he silently watched you go through your drawers searching.
"I forgot my mother is going arrive to Gotham today!" You said as you put stuff in your suit case. "I told her that I'd pick her up after work, but I forgot it was today!"
That's going to be troubling considering the distant between the airport and Arkham." He said casually sipping his coffee.
"I KNOW!" You yelled desperately.
"Want me to drive you?" He asked and you shock your head as you wore your coat.
"Thanks for the kind offer Jonathan, but I'll be able to handle it this time." You said getting ready to leave, you went to your place which was across from him and drank the rest of your coffee.
"Very well, just be careful and good luck." He said getting up to leave.
"Yeah thanks you too!" You said distractedly, but your next action left Jonathan with a look of pure shock, you kissed him on the lips before existing the office. "Lock the doors on your way out, thanks!! "
Jonathan was still staring with wide eyes at the direction you disappeared to. You had just kissed him and hadn't realized it yet, knowing you, you'd probably realize it only late at night when things had calmed down and you were alone with your thoughts. Now, you and him have only been friends in the work place at Arkham, but from your action just now, which happened because of two reasons, you genuinely wasn't aware of it, or deep down you wanted for them to be more than just friends, who drink coffee together, or go out for lunch after work.
He hoped for the later, but to finally find out he'd have to wait untill tomorrow morning, or later that night when she'd probably call him apologizing while being embarassed.

I hope you guys liked this one and sorry for any error, again I wrote this on my phone.

Rating 18+
Genre : Vampire Au!!!! , DILF! Jungkook ! Bodyguard AU! Babysitter OC!   Age difference!!!
Chapter 1   Chapter 2  Chapter 3    Chapter 4  Chapter 5
WARNINGS : THERES JUST WAY TOO MUCH FILTH HERE !!!!!!!!
A huge thank you for the banner  to @helenazbmrskai​
Tumblr media
Chapter 6
“You sure you don’t want to take that?” Yugyeom gave me a look as i rejected the call for the umpteenth time.
“Oh..uh... Yeah.” I shrugged it off feeling exhausted. 
The whole point of going out with Yugyeom was to take a break from one Jeon Jungkook but that was impossible..... with said vampire calling me every five minutes. 
“So...anyways.... Mingyu was way out of line and I really wanted to apologize on behalf of the idiot. Although your bodyguard seems to have put the fear of God into him....Kid was trembling when he came home last night. “ Yugyeom chuckled. 
I smiled weakly.
“Yeah...he tends to do that.” I said hoarsely. 
Jungkook was the one topic I was hoping to avoid. Because having sex with him hadn’t scratched the itch the way I had thought it would.... It had merely amped my lust by a few hundred thousand times and I was ill equipped to handle it. I didn’t know what to do with myself around him and I was so fucking terrified I was going to do something awful;.
Like jump him in front of everyone. 
So I’d spent the whole day trying to be aloof but it hadn’t worked very well. 
Jungkook stuck close me , tossing lingering glances that made my skin heat up, , hands brushing mine way too often, eyes trained on me without any restraint 
And don’t even get me started on the  touching.
Hand brushing my waist when we turned a corner , fingers brushing my hair off my face when I had my hands full with the kids, an arm wrapped around my shoulder when Minhyuk had asked me out again. 
And I’m not saying i didn’t love it because it felt like Christmas and my birthday had come together but.... but... I had a job to do. With  kids.
It wasn’t the place to be fantasizing about how good your bodyguard’s cock had felt inside you. 
“Jungkook right? Jeon Jungkook ....” Yugyeom said thoughtfully. 
“Uh ...yeah...”
“Tall dude? Black hair? Looks way too intimidating and dresses like he’s just stepped off a runway?” Yugyeom prompted and I blinked.
“You know him?” I asked surprised. 
Yugyeom shook his head.
“No, but I think he’s over by the bar and he’s looking at me like he wants to tear out my jugular.” He said casually. 
My gaze snapped to the bar behind us and I felt my eyes widen in disbelief. 
Jungkook stood leaning against the bar, eyes narrowed dangerously and I groaned. 
So much for avoiding him. 
“He looks pissed.” Yugyeom commented.
“I kinda ditched him.” I muttered.
“did you tell him , I’m a friend?”
“Don’t think it would have made much difference.  Gimme a minute?” I whispered, and Yugyeom laughed, waving me off. 
I stood up slowly , bracing myself for the interrogation I knew was coming,  before turning around and walking over to him. 
Jungkook’s eyes stayed trained on me as I made my way over and I felt my throat go dry at the sight of him. He hadn’t dressed for the place today, a black turtleneck and a black jacket and black slacks with a silver belt buckle. Hair tousled all over his forehead as he stared, unsmiling. 
Tumblr media
“Is this whole angel of death thing really necessary?” I whispered as soon as I reached him.” I’m sorry. I just needed to ...” stay away from you for a bit and last night was so amazing and i can’t stop thinking about it. 
“ You couldn’t take a few minutes to tell me where you were going?” He asked casually and I swallowed. 
“Jungkook, Yugyeom’s ...a good friend.” I muttered.
“How about you let me make that call?” He said coldly, eyes narrowed in annoyance and I felt chilled.
“I’m sorry... To be honest, I missed you. I’ve gotten used to you being around and I was going to cut the night short. I promise.” 
He scoffed. 
‘Really? I don’t believe you. For someone who spent the better part of a month begging for my cock, the novelty seems to have worn off pretty fast for you.” He said casually. 
My head snapped up , the words stunning me into silence. 
I could only gape at him. 
He gave me another lazy once over.
“And it made me wonder.....did I not  fuck  her good enough?”  
Oh, Christ. 
I felt my face turn a flame red , my fingers going clammy. 
“Jungkook, stop.” I whispered , glancing back at Yugyeom quickly. He was fiddling with his phone, 
“What’s wrong? You need to head back? YOur boyfriend’s gonna be upset?” 
I frowned. 
“He’s not my boyfriend.” I muttered. 
Jungkook grinned. 
“Right...he’s just the clown you wanted to suck off when you were younger...” 
“God, what’s gotten into you?” I groaned. 
Jungkook shrugged.
“I don’t like being ignored. It’s a character flaw of mine.” 
I gaped at him.
“I am not ignoring you.... I... I was out with a friend....It’s been less than an hour since I saw you... I literally spent the whole day with you.” I said shrilly. 
“Really? Then why’d you not pick up when I called....?” He waved his phone and I flushed, looking away. 
“Because I wanted an hour with an old friend....Without anyone interrupting.” I lied.  
Because you’re driving me in sane and I need an hour without you around so I can get my friggin body under control before I get arrested for public indecency. 
He clenched his jaw. 
“I see. “ He reached for a glass of wine on the countertop in front of him and turned around. “ Here” He held it out for me.
I took the drink, suspicious. 
“Go on , then.... I won’t interrupt...” He shrugged. 
I nodded, relieved.
Turning around I made to move away.
“Thought you’d be interested in a little gift I got you.... but if you’d rather spend time with the clown... I get that.” 
His voice was low and deep, a drawl that made the hair on my skin stand on end. 
I turned back to him, eyes narrowed. 
“What gift?” I demanded. 
He shrugged. 
“Nevermind.”
I felt my hackles rise. 
“Jungkook...”
“Are you sure.. what if that clown misunderstands... ...” he pointed a finger at my table and I glared at him. 
“Stop calling him that , God..his name is yugyeom. “ I snapped.
Jungkook’s smile was positively feral.
“Don’t know .Don’t care. So, you want it? You sure ?” He asked casually. 
i nodded, holding my hand out.
“Gimme .” I said quickly. 
He shook his head. 
“Can’t give it to your here,  angel.” 
I frowned , drawing my hand back.  
“There’s a ladies room on the fifteenth floor. It’s being renovated ... no one goes there... Meet me there in five?” 
I stared at him.
“There’s a firework show in half an hour. I don’t wanna miss it.” I protested. 
Jungkook gave me a thoughtful smile.
“You wanna watch the fireworks?”
I nodded. “ Yugyeom booked it for me. I wanna see it.” 
“Alright.. I’ll get you back in time for the fireworks.” He nodded, face frustratingly neutral. 
“Okay..then .. and I’ll meet you there.” 
“Can’t wait ...” He murmured softly. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~
The restroom on the fifteenth floor was deserted like he said and looked less like the ladies room and more like a luxurious parlor. The stalls were further in and the waiting space had beautifully upholstered couches and armchairs. Ornate mirrors hung on all the walls and I found Jungkook seated on one the couches, legs spread wide as he casually browsed his phone. 
I stepped in carefully , shutting the door behind me. 
Jungkook looked up at me, smiling. 
“Lock the door.” He said casually and I hesitated.
“Jungkook, we shouldn’t be-”
“If you need to be at the firework show , you need to stop wasting time baby...” He said firmly. 
I locked the door quickly, making sure it couldn’t be opened. 
I turned back around and jumped when I ran right into Jungkook, who had crept up on me. 
He smiled at me. 
“Hi.” He said gently. 
I felt myself melt . 
“Hi.” I laughed.
“Don’t like it when you ignore me.” He muttered. bending low and nipping my jaw. 
I grabbed his shoulders, knees weak. 
“Uh... is this the gift...?” I gasped when he bit down hard, teeth sharp on the skin and he licked the little abrasion, wet and warm. 
“Not really but I’ll get to it. Before that, “ He pulled away, “ I just realized I never got to eat you out yesterday.” 
The gears in my head stopped spinning. 
I could only stare at him, stunned/ 
“But, I like to be thorough and we don’t have that kind of time right now. So I’m just gonna ask you this.....Do  You regret last night?”
I blinked. 
What even...? I couldn’t keep track of his thought process. 
“No.. no of course not...” I said harshly.
“You wanna keep doing this?” He tilted his head, eyes boring into mine. 
 Only for the rest of my life. 
“Yes!!” I said angrily and he chuckled. 
“Okay...but angel, I don’t like it when you run around doing as you please without letting me know what you’re up to. What you did today...” He shook his head. “ That doesn’t work for me.”
I flushed.
“I said I’m sorry.” I muttered. 
“But are you?” He said thoughtfully. 
“what..What does that mean...?”
“Apologies don’t mean shit if you don’t back them up with actions. I’m just saying... you ready to back up your words by doing as I say?” his eyes flashed red. 
I hesitated. 
“What do you want me to do. ?”
“Just don’t ignore me.” He shrugged.
“Okay...” i agreed at once.
“ You can do that?” He asked with a frown.
“Uh...sure. “ 
He hummed. 
“I’m not so sure... I think you need a little help with that.” 
“Jungkook , what are you even -”
“Go lie down on the couch for me. “
I stared at him. 
“Hurry up baby, your boyfriend’s waiting upstairs remember? .”  He grinned. 
“Please stop calling him that...” I whined, moving to the wide couch in the corner and lying down after toeing off my shoes.
. Jungkook grabbed an armchair, dragging it close to the couch. He sat down , close enough to touch and I swallowed.  
Jungkook shrugged out of his jacket, tossing it on the arm of the couch , near my feet. 
He spread his legs and my eyes nearly popped out of my head when he began unbuckling his belt, dragging the leather out through the hoops before fiddling with the buttons on his fly. 
“I was thinking of last night. Was your first time right angel?” He asked casually and I stared as I watched his hands. Long nimble fingers gripping the zipper of his slacks and yanking the metal down , revealing black briefs. 
“Uh... I.. yes?” I felt my thighs clench in arousal, toes curling into the fabric of the couch.
 “  I’ve been around enough women to know that I’m bigger than average. “ He sank his fingers into his briefs, hands curling around the hardened length of his arousal and I flushed when he pulled his cock out, hard and thick. 
“Jungkook!” I whimpered, moving to scramble to my feet but he pressed a hand to my shoulder, pushing me back down.
“ Stay there angel.... Let me finish” He said sternly. 
I pouted, not entirely sure if I liked this Jungkook. Where was the sweet man who wanted to let me call the shots? 
 “ This is what I’m like. “ Jungkook said , grinning as though he could read my mind “ Just because I indulged you last night, doesn’t mean I’m gonna let you walk all over me ....Running off without telling me where you went? That’s not gonna happen again angel and I’m gonna make sure of it. ” He reached out and gently gripped my chin before squeezing down enough to make me wince. 
I glared at him before my eyes slipped back to his cock and my mouth watered. It looked so good, thick and hard and he was close enough for me to see the precum beading up at the slit. I wondered what it would taste like. How it would feel,
“Can I suck you off?” I asked softly, batting my lashes. 
He gave me an amused look.
“No. You can’t.  Anyways... Like I was saying , I know you said you were a virgin but then, you also took my fat cock like you’d been doing it all your life. “ He frowned. 
Blood rushed to my face in embarrassment. 
“That’s... you...” I spluttered. 
“And that’s when I realized... Just because you’re a virgin, doesn’t mean you haven’t fucked yourself. “ He grinned devilishly. 
I buried my face in my hands.
“Oh god...” I choked.
“Guess what I found in your room...” 
My eyes snapped up to him and he was rummaging in his jacket pocket. 
I shrieked when I saw a very familiar vibrator , a pale mauve in color. It wasn’t very long but it was really thick, only a hairsbreadth smaller than Jungkook. 
I glared at him.
“You went through my things!!” i yelled affronted. 
He rolled his eyes. 
“Hardly.  It was literally on your bed when I went looking for you in the evening because I couldn’t fucking find you.. “ He snapped. 
I shut my mouth. 
“Okay...fine ..yeah I use sex toys. Big  deal.” I muttered. 
He shook his head. 
“No it isn’t. Which is why I want you to show me. “ He leaned back, casually wrapping a hand around his cock. I stared at him as he casually began stroking the hard length of his dick, after licking his palms. 
Did he really think I was too shy to put on a show? 
Boy was he in for a surprise. 
Smiling evilly, I pulled my dress up quickly, hooking my thumbs into my panties and yanking them down quickly, kicking them off. 
I gave him a smile. 
“Can I turn around? You’ll have a better view.” I smirked. 
His eyebrows shot up.
“Go ahead, princess. Better impress me.” 
I rolled my eyes at that. 
Sitting up , I sat back down against the cushioned arm rest, keeping my eyes trained on his and I bent my knees and spread my legs, utterly shameless because well... because I had always liked the idea of being watched. 
Jungkook wasn’t shy by any standards and his gaze flitted right between my legs without any hesitation. 
“Pretty.” He murmured gently and I fought the rush of embarrassment. I’d started this and I was going to see through it. 
“What am I supposed to get turned on by?” I asked innocently running my fore and middle finger up andn down my slit gently. I was really fucking wet on the inside but he couldn’t know that.  
And just for good measure, I let my gaze drop to his cock and back up, looking bored. 
His eyes narrowed. 
“How about the way I filled your sloppy little cunt last night? Remember that?  Remember how fucking wet you got, just from me licking your nipples....?” He smiled. 
I felt my throat go dry and my pussy clenched,  damp wetness seeping out and coating my hand  and my fingers slipped right in  before I could do anything about it. 
Jungkook laughed, eyes trained where my fingers had disappeared. 
He kept his hands on his cock and leaned in closer, kissing the edge of my earlobe.
“Thought so. “ He whispered right into my ears, :” My horny little slut. Bet you walk around all day with that cunt dripping wet and ready. Bet I could fuck into you with ease, anytime I want...just flip that skirt up, push your panties aside and drive my cock into you, yeah? “ He licked a stripe up my cheeks and I shuddered,  pumping my fingers into my pussy faster, “  Virgin..???  what a fucking joke... You are the farthest thing from a virgin my sweet little whore...” 
“Jungkook...” I whimpered and he gripped my wrists, stilling my fingers and pulling them out. He pulled my hand closer, right up to his mouth and I groaned when he wrapped his lips around the wet and messy digits, licking up all the wetness there.
“Sweet and spicy , just like I thought...” He directed my fingers back down between my fingers...” Get more of that wetness for me baby...want you to jerk me off with that hot slick you have dripping between your thighs...” 
:” On your knees.” He prompted and I sank down in front of him. “Jerk me off, baby...Make me feel good...” He whispered, spreading his legs and I wrapped shaky hands around his cock. I swallowed , gazing at him , licking my lips as I stroked his dick, faster. He took one of my hands and directed them down to his balls.
“Like this... This makes me feel good..”He whispered, showing me just how he liked to be touched .I nodded, following his lead and speeding up my movements, gripping a little tighter, using my thumb to trace circles on the head, rubbing the wetness around his slit and the thick vein on the underside of his cock. 
He groaned and shuddered a little. And then he leaned forward, gripping my chin. 
“ I want you to get on my lap now.... and then I’m gonna cum inside you “
I whimpered, already scrambling to my feet but before I could get on him, he gripped my waists. 
“ Let me finish, angel.I’m gonna fill you up with my cum and then I’m gonna stick this , “ He held the vibrator up, “ inside you . If you can keep your slutty little pussy tight enough for me, keep this thing  and my cum inside you till tonight...maybe you’ll get your gift. “ 
I stared at him, my jaw coming unhinged. 
 What. 
WHAT.
He pulled me closer, maneuvering me onto his lap and I swallowed. 
“I’m not... I can’t..” I whispered.
“Sure you can.. I believe you. But if you don’t want to.” His gaze softened. “ We can forget all about it.” 
I bit my lips, staring into his gorgeous face and and really, it was a no brainer. I wasn’t going to say no to Jeon Jungkook. It was just not going to happen. 
I spread my thighs and he grabbed his cock, tracing the tip on my slit.
“Ready?” 
I nodded, sinking down on the hard length easily. My breath caught , fingers curling into his shoulders as I swallowed the whimper that threatened. God he was so fucking big inside me. So hard and real and good and I wanted to sit on his cock forever. Wanted to stay locked in a room with him forever,  just fucking and teasing and fucking again and only stopping to shower or eat. 
“Don’t cum.” He said gently.” You don’t get to cum till I tell you to. You understand baby?” 
I whimpered as he fucked into me just once or twice. Warm wetness flooded my insides and I clutched his shoulders, burying my face there as he groaned, fucking me full of his release. 
He grabbed the vibrator from the couch and I swallowed when he brought it down to my entrance.
“Ready baby? Gonna pull my cock out and put this in.....Need to you clench down on it and keep my cum in... Don’t make a mess alright?” He kissed my cheeks sweetly, the affectionate gesture a complete contrast to his filthy words. 
I did make a mess... 
A little bit and the vibrator was thick enough to stay lodged in, and I felt my eyes roll back in my head as he pushed it in fully. 
“You okay?” He whispered, kissing me softly before running his palms up and down my thighs. “Gonna help you put your panties on, baby. okay? keep your pussy clenched for me. ” 
I nodded weakly, trying to keep my muscles clamped around the hard length of the toy inside me as he helped slip my bikini briefs back up my thighs. 
“You okay?” 
I nodded.
“Good. Let’s go see those fireworks, shall we?” He grinned devilishly. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jungkook stood leaning against the wall of the rooftop restaurant , arms crossed as he watched her, a smile playing around his lips as he watched her squirm, shifting her weight from on thigh to the other as she tried to sit on the hard backed chair, her eyes glassy and unfocused as the Kim vampire talked to her. 
Dude didn’t seem to realize that she was so out of it she probably didn’t understand a word he was saying. 
He stayed in the shadows because the front of his thighs was stained with cum, a little bit of white streaks, stark against the black of his slacks. She had let a little of it spill out of her when he’d pulled out...which was a little sloppy of her and usually, Jungkook would punish something like that in a partner but...well because it was the first time he would just let it pass. Besides, he was sure she would improve with time.
He trained his eyes back to her hips and his lips quirked when gripped she armrest, shivering a bit. 
This felt better,  he thought.
Watching her with other men was easier when he knew that he was the one on her mind. Knew that all she could think about was keeping his cum inside her, the hardness of the toy a reminder that he was the one she was trying to please and impress.  
He slipped a hand inside his pocket, playing with the tiny little remote . 
Should he? 
Would it be too much? 
He smirked. 
Only one way to find out. 
He thumbed the small knob at the top of the remote, eyes trained on her .
The moment he flipped it on , at the smallest setting possible, she went completely still.
And he wondered how it felt, the electric vibrations of the toy against her insides...he wished he could see it...she her pussy spread out for him, pink and wet and swollen and wrecked.... God, the things he wanted to do to her. 
It annoyed him a bit, how shamelessly she’s spread her legs on that couch, let him see the pink of her cunt without an ounce of shame .....annoyed him because he wasn’t sure if it was for  him  or because it was what she was  like.... 
Annoyed him because if it wasn’t for just him.... would she do it for other too? 
He couldn’t stomach the idea of it. 
That pretty pink pussy, so wet and wanting...he wanted it all for himself . He wanted her legs spread out on his bed, her arms tied to the fucking bedposts so he could show her just how dangerous he could be when he wanted to....
That just because he’d let her take the lead didn’t mean he would settle for anything less than her complete submission.
Smiling, he turned the vibrations up a little bit, smirking as he watched her. 
Sera gripped the armrest gently, raising her hips off the chair a bit and turning around slowly to stare right at him.
He grinned wide, relishing the shocked desperation on her face. He pushed away from the wall, sauntering over to her slowly till he was right behind her. 
“Doing okay? baby?” He whispered gently for her ears only.
“Don’t do this to me.” She said softly, nails digging indents into her part as she clenched her fists , resting her hands on her knees.
He hummed. 
Poor baby, he thought fondly. . When this night was over he would shower her with kisses. Giver all the affection. Cuddle the fuck out of her, brush her hair back and make her feel so, so , good. 
But the night was  far  from over. 
He glanced at her companion.
Yugyeom gave him a smile and nod, went back to talking about art or something. 
Sera had her eyes fixed straight ahead, glassy and unfocused. 
He leaned over to whisper into her ear.
“Don’t forget...You cannot cum.” 
And then he sauntered back over to his place near the wall, before slipping his fingers into his jacket and turning up the tempo for her. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Was fun catching up, Sera... I’ll text you, yeah?” Yugyeom gave me a light hug and I stared at him, slightly teary eyes and about a second away from collapsing into a heap on the floor. 
I was sore and tired and a little out of my mind. The fireworks had lasted fifteen minutes.
It had felt like a year. 
And I hadn’t even watched them because I had kept my eyes screwed shut, concentrating only on not cumming, because if I did, not only would I literally drip all over the chair , but I would likely scream loud enough to wake the dead. 
Jungkook had turned the toy off when the show ended but it had done nothing for me...in fact it felt worse because the lack of stimulation was even worse than the steady thrum of the toy against my walls. 
Jungkook looked entirely unaffected as he watched me bid good bye to Yugyeom and it was only when he had driven away that he lightly took my arm.
“You okay baby?” He gave a me a slow smile and I glared at him through wet lashes.
“I won’t go anywhere without you again. I promise. Please just get this out of me.” 
He cooed, pulling me into a hug. 
“Alright angel. I believe you. Come on...” 
He led me to the large black Palisade , grabbing the keys from the valet.
“Get in the back seat.” He prompted. 
I nodded, too out of it to even question it. I climbed into the seats and sat down, whimpering when the toy moved inside me, shifting in deeper. My clothes were damp , almost soaking wet and my thighs trembled. 
He glanced at me.
“Can you hold on till we get home?” He asked  gently.
I stared at him, unseeing. Tears filled my eyes and spilled over.
“Please.” Was all I could get out. 
“Fuck, okay baby. Hang on.” 
Jungkook drove quickly, pulling out of the hotel premises and into the road. But instead of taking the left like he usually did, he took a U turn, picking a side road that led away from the city’s bustle . 
I gripped the seats as he drove in further away from the crowded city light , only blinking when he took a right into secluded side road, empty except for us.
I stared in confusion as he parked the car , turned off all the lights  in the car. I watched him climb out of the front seat, slamming his door shut before prying mine open. 
“Lay back for me baby. Up against the door.” He said gently. And then when I didn’t move he climbed, in all but lifting me up and settling me down till, I was leaning against the door, staring down at him.
He didn’t waste any time, spreading my legs, and pulling my panties off before pushing my knees up and apart. 
“Gonna eat you out.” He growled and my eyes flew open, the first pang of lucidity hitting me. 
“Wha-Wait...your...there’s...inside, there’s....” I couldn’t even say it. 
“My cum? Yeah... i know my cum’s inside there...” Jungkook laughed, fingers gripping the base of the vibrating and twisting it just a little bit. “ i know angel, and now I’m gonna lick my cum out of your sopping wet pussy..” 
Jungkook pulled the vibrator out of me and I sobbed at the gush of wetness that dripped out of me. But it didn’t spill, because he chased the wetness with his tongue, curling the hard length of it inside me, scooping up every last drop of the filthy mess inside me, taking it all into his hot, wet mouth . 
He hummed a little before pressing a thumb to my clit, rubbing the nub till I began quivering already way too overstimulated to experience anything but a throbbing pain disguised as pleasure. I stared at him , vision swimming as he crawled to his knees on  the back seat, head bowed because of the car’s ceiling and I watched him fumble with his belt, pulling out his cock and lining it up against my entrance. 
He drove straight in, without any hesitation, leaning over me till his face was just a little away from mine, staring down at me, cheeks a little puffed. He fucked into me with a force that shook the car on its wheels, the large vehicle somehow shaking like a leaf from how hard he thrust into me. I felt like my body was on fire, breath getting punched out of me with every thrust of his cock inside me and I could only whimper , fingers curling and uncurling on the seat as I rode the high of being fucked into incoherency. 
Jungkook grunted, hipped my waist hard used one hand to rub my clit harshly. 
And then he bought his other hand up to slip two fingers into my mouth, prompting me to open my mouth. The digits slipped in , rubbing the flat of my tongue before pulling out. 
I stared wordlessly, as his fingers slipped down to cup my jaw, squeezing till I opened my mouth wide. I stuck my tongue out instinctively and he groaned. 
Jungkook gave me cheeky little wink, eyes flashing red before he opened his mouth, spitting the wet mess of his cum and my juices right onto my tongue just as he pulled back and drove into me, his cock going so deep I saw actual fireworks. 
I went completely still, the sheer filthiness' of the act and the force of his thrust driving me straight over the edge , even as he groaned and kissed me full on the lips, tongue swooping in to swirl the mess on my tongue all over, his fingers gripping my hair as he fucked me harder, chasing his own pleasure now. 
My body hummed, exhausted, drained, completely wrung out and wrecked. 
I went limp as he gave one last thrust, spilling into me again. 
He was panting against my neck as he came down from his high and I raised a shaky hand to gently stroke the back of his head as he shuddered against me.
When he pulled back to stare at me, brushing my damp hair off my face he had a smile on his face. 
“Did you enjoy the fireworks baby?”  He whispered.
It took me two whole minutes to even remember what he was talking about.  
Author’s note : 
Jungkook sure knows how to get her attention back on him doesn’t he?
