So the Susan Elizabeth Phillips book I'm listening to is It Had to Be You (because the only Chicago Stars book I've read is Nobody's Baby But Mine and it's football season so TIME 2 GO)
And though there are for sure some choices made that VERY much signal this is a 1994 novel (one wording in like, the first chapter, made my eyebrows shoot STRAIGHT UP) (though I'll also say that this book is super about Gay Rights, like our heroine Phoebe surrounds herself with gay men and donated a fuckton of money to AIDs-related charities, and to be clear her 1990s football coach hero is also v down with the gays~, I am blindly going with it)
I will also say that whenever I read an SEP book, I'm struck by several things I find so difficult to find in current contemporary romcoms...
A) legit humor
B) ... thoughtful writing ....
C) the couple just. FUCKING AROUND.
Like, Phoebe has a lot of trauma and hangups (she's also 33, which I love! And I suspect that her hero, Dan, is probably in his late thirties/early forties) but a big part of this book is her learning to be comfortable with sex, which happens with Dan, even though Dan is in fact completely unaware that this is what is going on and just thought that her being like "Can you pretend I'm a virgin" the first time they boned was roleplaying
(Dan: WHEN WILL SOMEONE FUCK ME IN A NON-ROLEPLAYING CONTEXT???)
But like... they have sex... and he doesn't realize what a big deal it was for her so he just sorta skedaddles... and she's pissed about it so they sort of simmer in mutual "it'll never happen again" resentment... until they sorta buddy-buddy because he realizes he was being a dick (don't worry, this is SEP, he WILL be a dick again) and then she pisses him off so much by being like YOOHOO BOYS I THINK PICTURING THE OTHER TEAM NAKED WILL HELP YOU WIN THE FOOZEBALL GAME and then it WORKS, so naturally he then confronts her in the airplane bathroom directly after and she calls him on his shit and dresses him down, only to realize during turbulence-related body-slamming that her berating him made him FULLY aroused, which leads to a partial airplane BJ (her first BJ) (Dan, who does not know this is her first BJ, mentally: she is "sweetly awkward" about this) and an airplane fingerbang (complete) (this poor football team is just asleep a few feet away)
And now! They're just sorta sitting in snarky, not-dating, sometimes fucking around limbo... all while this man is fully like "I WILL BE ASKING THAT SWEET NURSERY SCHOOL TEACHER OUT BECAUSE I THINK SHE'LL BE A GREAT MOM TO MY NONEXISTENT KIDS.... TOMORROW........................... AFTER I FUCK PHOEBE AGAIN.................."
(Because mind you, when she was all "but you didn't come in this airplane bathroom" he was like "ohmigod her sweetly awkward unfinished BJ made me feel A Feeling, I've gotta put some distance between us by telling her that one day I'm going to just say 'Now' and regardless of where we are or what she's doing she needs to follow me to the closest broom closet and SPREAD'")
(to which Phoebe goes "oh actually that sounds amazing", so it did backfire)
There is no discussion of dating or their feelings! There is no rational discussion! They're just impetuously hooking up when they get horny! And sitting there snarking at the workplace (because MIND YOU, she OWNS THE FOOTBALL TEAM HE'S COACHING) while everyone on this football team probably considers whether or not this is becoming a hostile work environment! They're sort of semi-raising her teenage sister together at this point and there has been NO! DEFINING! THE RELATIONSHIP! NO! SENSE! ALL! FEELINGS! AND! FUCKING! AND! MESS!
Honestly??? It also just feels more like how a lot of relationships develop organically??? From situationships to "Oh wait, we're like... dating..." without a full-length discussion until it's already kinda happening?
Like, this is the vibe I want from a contemporary romance. Less rational robotic shit and more "local idiots stumble into love"
#romance novel blogging#also there's an entire scene where she's sitting next to him in his car dragging his performance in bed#(she's just fucking w him naturally he was excellent)#while he goes WELL. I THOUGHT I WAS GREAT.#anyway!

i wonder if weâll ever get carmy talking about syd in al-anon. we know from his only scene at al-anon this season that he talks about the things bothering him in the present.
so this season he struggles with fun. bringing joy and amusement to himself and others because his family fucks it up without meaning to.
and this season we watch his family and family friends ruin fun (sydney who brings him amusement and joy) for him both actively through convincing him to pursue claire and also passively through learned behaviour and obligation (to take care of his family and those adjacent to them, fulfilling the wishes of a lonely teen carmy, and trying to connect w mikey when he canât).
in omelette carmy recommits to sydney saying she deserves his full focus. i wonder if in s3 weâll see carmy get introspective at al-anon about his relationship with sydney. since his meeting in s2, heâs had a lot of revelations about his feelings and obligations to her both professionally and romantically. and heâs going to struggle with those feelings and commitments due to growing up in unstable environments and dealing with the death of his brother
based on his behaviour in s01e7/8 we know carmy is deathly afraid of sydney leaving again and also what she thinks of him:
you are an excellent chef, you are also a piece of shit -> âlisten i donât, i donât wanna be shittyâ âso donât beâ
i think this fear is enough for him to want to openly talk/rant about in these meetings. carmy is acutely aware of his self-sabotaging tendencies but currently in the most negative way possible (the fridge monologue tells me he thinks self-isolation is the cure for self-sabotage - yikes).
heâs never explicitly talked about anyone in his life except for mikey at these meetings. i think sydney and mikey are often contrasted and compared in the overall narrative. Carmy says cooking is the way he and mikey bonded, and we know he bonds with sydney this way too.
Cooking was something used to be close to mikey so when he rejected Carmy, he went off to become a successful chef to spite mikey. whether its in love or anger he does it FOR mikey and wouldn't do any of it if he didn't want his attention and love.
Just like he wouldn't want to do any of this without Sydney. The dream of that restaurant died with his brother yet he found someone he trusts and loves enough to do it with. thats insane and huge. and that's something i think going forward, carmy understands he needs to protect and is scared to fuck up.
Mikey and Syd are people Carmy holds in high regard and even above himself. so naturally I predict/wish/want/hope (whatever) that he mentions her and how his relationship with her fits into all his journey of healing and greiving
#sydcarmy#the bear#sydcarmy meta#i find it interesting that carmy doesnât really strike me as a person who cares what others think of him#but with syd and mikey he deeply cares to the point of driving himself crazy

star trek update time. tuesday we did voy's "night" and ds9's "afterimage."
night (voy):
i REALLY liked this one...a rare w for neelix, whose fear of nothingness is relatable and totally understandable considering he just converted to atheism
it also makes me understand why people hc janeway as bipolar...she's up she's down i kind of get it. not sure if i 10% agree but i do at least get it. deeply enjoyed chakotay's attempts to bring her back into the rest of the ship also
also, chakotay asking tuvok for advice <3 and then later janeway is like chakotay i trust you more than anyone on this ship and you just KNOOOW he is like damn take THAT tuvok! worsties <3
MUTINY AS A TREAT!!!! we can have a little mutiny as a treat.
i love that she was like chakotay i trust you saaaur much and he was like got it i will go behind your back to do mutiny
although, is it really mutiny if they're stoping what is more or less a suicide attempt...no. ALSO, it makes me well up how much they love her. not a single one of them wanted to stay behind on that paradise planet and the last time they almost mutinied it was curing 2.25 resolutions in which she did have to be left behind and like...damn. she's kicking herself for what she did to them but they love and trust her so much. wah. excellent episode
oh and before i forget i loved the aliens in this one also. she was like fuck the prime directive we are in fact taking sides <3
afterimage (ds9):
i miss deanna troi.
it's that bad! it's that dire! at least when deanna was being a therapist on a ship she knew what the FUCK she was doing. exri dax is like hee hee we will figure our problems out together at the same time! we will do it without warning in the middle of your tailor's shop! im a junior counselor i am such a good little girl scout! girl...please
i did really like ezri's scenes with sisko. firstly it's hard to fail when you're acting alongside him (although eddington or whoever did manage) and secondly it's when exri feels the most like "just dax" instead of teehee quirky cute junior counselor wannabe manic pixie dream girl. christ
also, it really riles me that garak is talking about this deeply personal stuff with a STRANGER. even jadzia was nearly a stranger to him - they knew each other but they weren't super close. it was a BIG DEAL when garak even allowed julian to know who his father was, and now with no prompting he's talking about that same father locking him in a closet isaac lahey style in the middle of his shop with zero prompting?? get FUCKED. it was so horribly manufactured. garak should have been working through this shit with JULIAN or at least someone who actually knows him. the betrayal of cardassians is such a juicy bit of acting and character development and we fucking wasted it on this shit!
speaking of julian, i'm also extremely put off by julian/exri...quark/exri actually feels so much more natural and respectful at this point whereas "oh she used to love when you flirted with her julian it would have been you if it wasn't worf" was so fucking excruciating and shoehorned in
finally...the worf stuff is bogus. he has no right to be like this isnt the same lady and then threaten people who talk to her. he also has a right to want nothing to do with her since he's grieving. she doesn't have to like make peace or whatever with him. he's not an obstacle she has to overcome in order to feel like one of the gang~! like she literally could leave :/ too bad she won't.
LIKE THEY DIDN'T HAVE TIME. TO DO A NEW CHARACTER. JUST BE LESS SHITTY TO TERRY FARREL. GOD.
maybe it will get better. i hope it does. but this JUNIOR~ counselor stuff is fucking killing me
TONIGHT: voy's "drone" and ds9's "take me out to the holosuite" - FINALLY. i'm still mad that jadzia never got to play baseball :(

Just curious what you don't like about Cory/Topanga if you feel like talking about it!
hey, i don't mind!
first off i think boy meets world in the context of just a purely heterosexual show makes it age pretty poorly, and that all stems from cory and topanga. i know one of the writers said a while back that the writers room was torn between shory and corpanga, and tbh, rewatching as an adult, that's extremely evident. i'm not gonna make this post all about shory bc that's reductive but i am first and formost a shory girl and a firm believer that cory matthews is a gay man
so let's get into it.
i really really love s1/2 corpanga. idk if it's just bc ben/danielle felt more natural back then or if it's bc they actually allowed cory to be wrong and topanga to be right, but it's just so sweet. one of my all time fav ship moments from the show is the frickin sock basketball scene where they touch hands and he giggles. so adorable! but i think what really makes them suffer after s1 (and kind of s2) is just that they clearly made topanga a normal, kelly kapowski girl-next-door type to make her more "desirable" for the male audience. that could be an entire separate post, but it's so fucking obvious that that's what the change was and it sucks because topanga was great the way she was.
they're not like hatable in season 3 exactly, but the "old married couple haha look how old gross and boring they are" trope when they were legitimately sophomores was just weird? and this is a retrospect thing but i hate how the show just kept retconning shit and pretended they never broke up in season 3, as if a HUGE storyline and one of the most iconic episodes (the happiest place on earth) wasn't about them getting back together? and for me just the concept of the ~universe wanting them to be together~ over and over again is just so fucking lame when they were so toxic. (great video on this here)
they really don't do anything wrong in season 4 either, but a long walk to pittsburgh is honestly so beyond ridiculous LMAO. i know everyone talks about how romantic it is, but i hate it because topanga literally runs away and moves back to philly just for cory. i know they claim it's to finish at john adams too, but i would find that much more believable if they had developed topanga AT ALL outside of cory. we know almost nothing about her home life and they wrote trini out so we never even see any friends of hers! the trend of them fighting and talking down to amy about their love is so fucking stupid too. like you are sixteen. it is fine to love someone and want to be with someone, but amy is right that it's not healthy for them to be as obsessed with each other as they are. like cory literally doesn't know who he is outside of topanga and that's NOT healthy.
oh lordy. s5. i'm not going to get into how much i hate that shawngela (a MUCH happier, more interesting relationship) was reduced to "wanting to be corpanga" in both their intro episode and then fucking gmw, but even the "old married couple" stuff in "chasing angela" at the restaurant is so annoying. "last tango in philly" is one of my fav episodes, but it's the perfect example of how cory can never accept he's wrong. shawn tries to tell him they should stop, and he just tells shawn he knows nothing about relationships and keeps being a dick about topanga and her (obviously gay) friend. but obviously, you're here to hear about how i feel about the cheating. yes, cory cheated and he genuinely liked lauren. for the show to act like he didn't is just gaslighting their audience. and tbh? i think ben and linda cardellini had excellent chemistry (certainly more than he and danielle did at that point . . .) and i think it's completely healthy to date more than one person! it was nice seeing cory be able to open up and bond with someone else, and yes, what he did was cheating. just bc he changed his mind and decided he "couldn't live without topanga" (bless u probably queer writer for what u did w that line :') ) doesn't mean that it didn't happen. topanga had EVERY right to break up with him. it does piss me off that we barely saw topanga's reaction to the breakup when there was a whole ep dedicated to shawn's reaction (and i say that as the #1 shawn stan), but that show hated women lbfr. AND WHY TF WAS IT BAD FOR HER TO KISS JONATHAN JACKSON WHEN SHE AND CORY WERE BROKEN UP????? bc cory can't accept things not going his way and not having control. the "we are a masterpiece" scene makes me so fucking angry omg i cannot
and i mean, bro, the yale shit has been talked about to death, but topanga lawrence going to the same college as straight d-student shawn hunter has got to be the dumbest, most woman-hating shit the show ever did. love can survive long distance if you put the effort in, trust me. (yes i am aware that the show prob didn't want to separate their main couple, but s6 was almost entirely about shawn anyway so????)
then in seasons 6 and 7 we get into the "cory yelling at and publicly humiliating topanga" trend. "undapants" is iconic so i'm not gonna go into that episode (fuck you "take her back to your tornado infested trailer park" line!), but i can name at least seven occasions where cory pressures her into sex. and rider strong is right. it was extremely holier than thou how they constantly made it seemed like corpanga was better than shawngela for not fucking before marriage. like isn't there a line where they call shawngela sluts in s7? the whole honesty bit in "the truth about honesty" (admittedly one of my fav eps) is also just ridiculous bc both of them always get pissed off at the other one for being honest, even in the past. i've seen people get mad at topanga for throwing yale in cory's face but lbr, who didn't see that coming? i guess maybe it's a little weird bc she'd never been resentful about it before, but that's a HUGE thing in their relationship. and yes, it is weird that she's using his razor without his permission but again just the pressuring her to show him her ass is also fucking weird (it's also weird imo that they've been together "their whole lives" but they've only ever kissed, but again, holier than thou bullshit)
one thing i can say about how weak and uninteresting their relationship actually is is that their ENTIRE wedding episode is about shory, bc they are the much more compelling dynamic in cory's life. weirdly enough, i do actually really like cory's vows though?? on a shawn hunter stan note, oblig "that best man speech was bullshit" comment. it's completely normal and healthy to have a best friend outside of your partner? especially when you can't be honest with your partner. god i fucking hate that bullshit. just like how i hate in "seven the hard way/the war" how they portray cory abandoning his best friend/true life partner for topanga AND THEN IN FUCKING GMW THE BAD FUTURE FOR EVERYONE LITERALLY CAME TRUE!!!!!!! omg i will go insane if i think about that for longer than a few seconds.
end of post, but leaving this here

weird fun fact about me: I had a phase where I watched like a fuck ton of among us streams, like not kidding I consumed hours of content
anyways, man, the among us would be insane with these guys
so many of them would hack, Melony in this nebulous place where she would hack to have fun and if she did that in like a public she would probably get kicked or something similar and feel so so sad about it
also the arguments would be SO loud
Mario would be an excellent killer, although very risky
like you would have a fast game with him either because he killed people that fast or because he got caught fast, he's just reckless like that
the 3 and 4 arguments would go crazy, especially when neither of them are the killer but they still vehemently accuse each other. they work great as killer partners though, considering how team work is second nature to them
except if they work too well together, people start questioning and eject them, making it so they have to kind of pretend fight to get out of shit, it's- more or less successful
Meggy is probably the one that likes to keep information straight the most, always trying to figure things out. this comes to bite her in the ass when she's a killer, as she will sometimes accidentally reveal herself to be a liar- not all the time but it's not rare either. Although she tries her best for her killer partners, and would likely sometimes end up protecting them a little too much, once again drawing suspicion
Tari is lethal.... if she was a more brave killer. I actually see her being really good at it, there's also this feeling of "I'm killing my friends and they're gonna find out :(" keeps her back. However in public lobbies she is EXTRA lethal
Saiko goes crazy because killer or not, she acts very similarly, always defending herself, overall a good killer, although I don't know about her team work skills- depends on who she gets paired with. I feel like, to an extent, Tari or Meggy could follow her lead well, she would turn out weirdly good with Mario even if she's not happy about it, if it was 3, she would try to reveal him on purpose, then frames it as gaining other people's trust requiring sacrifices
Shroomy.... probably one of the best killers, he would somehow turn out to be incredibly cunning, though if he goes anti Shroomy he has to try and not let out the Evil in voice chat, especially proximity chat, that would really bite him in the ass. very good survivor though, he loves his tasks in a mind numbing way, like hey murder may be happening but at least I have my silly little tasks to distract me
Belle super good unless she pairs up with someone she doesn't like, however w Tari would go crazy, she would get competitive and try to kill more than Tari. This recklessness does bite her in the ass a lot. She would be pretty bored with tasks, only doing maybe a few but otherwise walking around, trying to see if anyone if anyone is getting murdered
Boopkins is awful at both, which people recognise. However because people recognise he's awful, sometimes he will get away with a kill or 2 because he can sometimes will himself to do things well and people just. don't believe he could've taken that kill so they drop it
Bob gets ejected all the time, somehow always looking sus, he's not even that bad of a player, he is just somehow always sus. Like Bob, why'd you bring up organ trading during an among us sesh? are you channeling your inner killer? He is forever bored with tasks

I'm gonna make this post as condenaed and abridged brainrot to explain why Victor Frankenstein is my boy from 200 yr old media prompted by a tag question from @samathekittycat in a post I reblogged because that highjacking would've been too much
So. Basically every adaptation ever is way off, Victor in the og novel is a guy from a rich family, yes, but one that has it's own fucked up occurrences that shape him even though he says his life is the peak of idyllic and that can lead to really good character analysis
He becomes an alchemy fanatic at 13, completely obsesses over it, even harder when his father claims the whole subject to be trash and he's in general somewhat fascinated by natural occurrences as well, so he gets it into his head that he wants to change the world by attaining the alchemist dream of basically defeating death, and this is all exacerbated when he's about to be sent away to study in Ingolstadt at 17 and just days before his mother dies of an illness his cousin-sister-future wife (it's complicated, it's a whole mess with hiw mother's involvement too) contracted first, so his trip is delayed a bit, but he never really processes his grief and is not that interested in actual science at first until a professor he meets there validates the alchemists ambition and he starts to hyperfixate on science so bad he's surpassed his professors in 2 years, and with all this baggage, at 19, he decides he's going to decode the secrets of death basically, because as he sees it at this point, if applied enough in the right direction with a scientific method any mediocre man could change society
So he builds his creatire after 2 years of isolating himself completely to do it, so he finishes it at like 21, and the thing is, the guy basically did all of this in a hyperfocused state he started at 19 and influenced by All That Baggage and grief he has Not Processed, so he wasn't really thinking about the consequences of anything. So his creature opens its eyes and suddenly the weight and terror of everything falls upon him along with a good mix of uncanny valley, and he just. Collapses. He sleeps a bit, his creature's still there, and he's so scared he runs away from his dorm room and by chance meets with his bff who was back in Geneva with the rest of his family he hasn't talked to in 2 whole years, his creature sneaks out while this is happening, and when going back, Victor is so mentally collapsed and strained and also scared he mighr be called crazy that he's just glad that the creature's gone and enters a fragile state where he's just completely physically sick and done for for a Big While, he can't take care of himself anymore and can't even look at anything relatingnto science anymore
When he's getting better, he has to go back to Geneva because his brother died. Whoah-oh, it was the Creature. He confronts it eventually and it asks for a bride and promises to go away with her, this is a Whole Conflict, because Victor can't reveal what he knows or he'll be labelled insane, he also doesn't wanna finish the bride because she'll also be her own person and what if she doesn't wanna run away with og Creature as his bride? While all of this is happening, one family servant is being accused of the murder and trialed, Victor is squealing in a corner
Basically, he's very autistic, he's seen a hysteric, his creation of the Creature can be analyzed from so many different angles, from teenage pregnancy and postpartum depression, trans experiences (both transmasc and transfemme! I've seen excellent analysis from both perspectives, though I have a personal bias towards the transmasc reading), the process of artist in general (like, that point when you start drawing something and you start zooming into every detail for hours and once you zoom out again you realize you don't like how it came out at all even though you put so much time into it), his illnesses and disabilities both mental and physical are really interestingly depicted as well, overall, he's a very meaty character who was FAR from making everything right, in fact, he did a lot wrong, but he's also a victim of his circumstances, a teen/young adult in the whole duration of the thing, and is suffering tons of pressure from everywhere while losing his purpose and selse of self to his opposition to his own creation. They are the definition of "they can make eachother worse" and Victor loses everything. He's a tragedy. A tragedy that a lot of people wanna ignore and just say he's plain evil because the Creature must be plain good and they feel smart if they say the typical "Small brain: Frankenstein was the monster vs Big brain: Frankenstein was the scientist, not the monster vs Galaxy brain: Frankenstein was the monster all along" and they completely skip out on all the depth this character has
I went super aurface level in a lot of parts here, but I hope it's somewhat understandable
I recommend reading the novel though! It's Good
#Frankenstein#Frankenstein 1818#Victor Frankenstein#kitsu rambles#absolute ramble#if I went into depth on any of these they'd all be their own post#there's SO MUCH

succession s1 episodes ranked
my unofficial official ranking of all the episodes in s1 of succession. mainly posting this for my own reference but feel free to argue w me in the notes.Â
10. celebration: this episode does a good job of introducing the characters and setting up the background for later episodes. but since it is such an early episode, it naturally pales a little in comparison to the later episodes. a strong episode, but not a standout. favourite line: âLike this hitchhiker kid that I picked up this morning, like earlier this morning. 'Cause it was raining and I didn't want... I didn't want him to get sexually assaulted?â
9. shit show at the fuck factory- amazing episode title. again this episode does a great job at setting up the siblings dynamics, both with each other and with logan. this episode does a great job at highlighting the uncertainty of kendallâs position as CEO and setting up the debt issue plotline. again a strong episode, but not necessarily a standout. favourite line:Â âWhat I think he meant to say was that he wished that Mom gave birth to a can opener because at least then it would be useful.â
8. i went to market- again, the job of this episode is mainly to background the upcoming conflict between kendall and logan. it does this well, but for me personally i find it a little less engaging than some of the other episodes. there is some fantastic tomgreg and tomshiv moments this episode. tom is especially good, going from uncertain and hesitant around shiv, to coercive and bullying around greg. favourite line: âWell, Kim Jong Pop, because that's not how things work in this country.â
7. prague- i do enjoy this episode, but i personally feel like it relies on the premise of âbachelor party at a sex clubâ too much for the humour and the jokes. however, there are so many great moments that i couldnât put this episode any lower. tom is FANTASTIC in this episode, desperately overcompensating in the funniest ways possible. the dogpound conversation is excellent, and sets up a recurring theme in succession- the fallibility of memory and the way the three siblings can perceive the same event in vastly different ways. favourite line: âShe kisses me and puts it back in my mouth, and I swallow.â âWhich, the cum?â
6. lifeboats- this is a really fun episode. we get to see kendall and roman in action, and they are all too ready to embarass themselves. this episode really solidifies the fact that while kendall can bluster and put on a good show, at the end of the day he is still desperate to impress logan. its a funny episode, the pacing is great, and we get our first tomshiv domestic breakfast scene, which i love. favourite line: âIt's not like they pre-poop them or something, like, it's not like... They're just bags, really. It's just a mental barrier.â
5. sad sack wasp trap- this is a stellar episode. we get the cruises plotline, connorâs mental breakdown, the further fracturing of kendall and loganâs relationship, and we start to see the cracks in tom and shivâs relationship. this episode is intriguing, clever and funny. one of my favourites to re-watch. favourite line:Â âTom, it's tough to have to tell you like this, but I'm in a sexual relationship with your mother. She talks in her sleep.â
4. which side are you on- the past five episodes have been building up the tension between logan and kendall, and it culminates in a very satisfying way. the ending shot of logan with âwhich side are you onâ playing in the background gives me chills everytime. the show opened with logan pissing on the floor and having a brain hemorrhage, yet he manages to be a terrifying figure throughout the show, with no other character able to stand up to him. every single second of the boardroom scene is great, and i particularly love romanâs body language throughout. absolutely fantastic. favourite line: âDrink the gold, my friend. And then later you and I can have a 24-karat piss.â
3. nobody is ever missing- okay look, this is a phenomenal episode, there is no denying that. the only reason it isnât number one on this list is because i feel like this episode is less impactful on a rewatch, than it was the first time i saw it. but the scenes of kendall dancing with his family and his conversation with logan at the end of the episode still hit so hard. itâs a very kendall-centric episode but the other characters still get their moments to shine. shiv and tomâs wedding conversation and romanâs rocket launch catastrophe are highlights in a great ep. love love love. favourite line: âBad news about my hymen. It's gone.â
2. austerlitz- this is the episode that made me completely obsessed with succession when i first watched it. this episode flipped a switch in my brain and i realised succession had everything i could possibly want in a tv show. i especially love the portrayal of kendallâs relapse- itâs almost a self-fulfilling prophecy with everyone around him believing heâs already relapsed. this episode is such a perfect depiction of the cycles of abuse, as we see logan repeat patterns from his own dysfunctional childhood when he manipulates and terrorises his own children. kendallâs confrontation with logan + the shot of kendall doing cocaine on that giant rock at the end + the shot of loganâs scars rewire my brain everytime i watch the episode. so good. favourite line: I don't know how to say this, except to say that love is a strange and peculiar affliction. It's like a virus. So could you please just stay here for a while... and maybe you'll catch it.
1. pre-nuptial- going into this rewatch, i expected that austerlitz would take the number one spot. but like all great romances, my love for episode 9 snuck up on me unexpectedly. this is definitely an episode that does better upon a rewatch. there isnât one major iconic moment in this episode, and it definitely does a lot of setting up for the finale, but this is a very revealing episode in terms of the charactersâ motivations and relationships. every single character is in fine form: at their most neurotic and dysfunctional. all the interactions between characters are layered and nuanced, and i particularly enjoyed watching the siblings engage with caroline. special mention for the tomshiv conversation this episode, which will forever live in my heart. i could write a whole separate post about that one scene itself. favourite line: âWell, these hands aren't gonna fuck themselves.â

So clays team just got murdered in cold fucking blood by none other than petulias quiver dance fueled rampage Once More đ shes also even faster now bc thanks to the power anklet she came holding in the NPC trade that i could use for some extra speed EVs from that pokemon breeder on route 6 w the minccino + deerling who i used to grind levels instead of the usual audinos. zoroark is also lightning fast now for the same reason
surf HM means more encounters! first picked up frillish from virbank city and then a basculin from aspertia which is whatever but at least a defensive ghost type could prove interesting esp since mine got water absorb. then got VERY excited winning the 50-50 between aron and axew in mistralton cave when using repel strats except. its a fucking. rivalry axew thats a girl. when like 97% of NPC pokemon are male đđđ this is so ass whyyy . she has an atk boosting nature but like . rivalry is such a nerf idek if shes worth it even for like. drayden .
chargestone cave got me my magnezone And a ferroseed which like aside from the homophobia (iykyk) is a good encounter at least . also zoroarks bird killing crimes have been amended bc i was informed that it is a common enough rule to implement in nuzlockes that if u kill ur encounter by accident u do get 2 more tries to catch that same mon. so i did end up getting my tranquill after all but with how much of an absolute powerhouse fig the crobat has been throughout the run its hard to see her being of use unfortunately . fig is just such a consistent mon with excellent returns every time man
the team is also getting closer and closer to fully evolved!! everyones so big now!!! pats still not a samurott yet tho and unfortunately for at least the time being zip the herdier turned stoutland Has been benched in favor of n's zoroark but even if this retirement turns out permanent for him i still owe him so much for being the bulky reliable best boy of the early game all this time . so he can rest easy knowing he did an great job
fridge the magnezone is More of an unkillable defensive wall than ever now especially with leftovers, only thing theyre rly lacking is just a proper special electric move thats not . volt switch or thundershock lmao but this is just a learnset issue . discharge is coming up eventually
myyr as an excadrill has also joined petulia in the weapon of mass destruction category and clay giving the bulldoze TM Finally nets us a physical ground STAB for her that doesnt require two turns like dig does . zoroark is also looking pretty terrifying in his own right but my current lack of TMs for all the coverage moves it can access for that True beast mode experience is still somewhat of a handicap. at least shadow ball TM is soon for ghost coverage (altho. if its ghost i need im too much of a chandelure gigafan not to just use a litwick đ)
and as is now tradition aka. the current crew:
hehe. im rly having fun
#honestly ive shocked myself w how fast ive been progressing and how invested i am in this now#but works for me lmao#tho its been like. Too much of a breeze recently it makes me worried im abt to get bamboozled again#but also like. ive just gotten solid encounters .#magnemite zubat and drilbur alone are just such god tier encounters alone nvm all 3#and with some ungodly lucky IVs on the crew it is.a bit obnoxious jskskdksks#maybe i do need to pick up a romhack next to actually feel that constant fear#jens b2 nuzlocke tag

summary: peter parker agrees to tutor you in physics for one reason and one reason only; youâre paying him. but, it quickly becomes about more than the money.
a/n: iâve had this in the drafts for a long ass time and iâm so stoked i finally get to share it with yâall omg i hope you enjoy this series as much as i do bc i canât wait for you to see whatâs next! also a reminder that all characters are of age and you should only proceed if youâre 18+! feedback is appreciated, much love to you <3
âfuck.â
youâre looking over the physics test your teacher just handed back, trying to make sense of her many markings. each page is covered in streaks of red pen from top to bottom. psychics isnât your strongest subject by any means, but you didnât think it was this weak. your heart nearly falls out of your chest when you read your grade.
you failed.
by one point.
screw physics, and screw ms. warren, too.
âshit,â you curse, slamming the test down on your desk. harry looks back at you. âsomething the matter, y/l/n? whatâs got your panties in a twist?â he wonders with that stupid smirk of his. ânot you, thatâs for sure,â you retort. âooh, feisty today, are we?â he observes.
harry turns around in his seat to face you properly. he leans his elbows on your desk, the smirk still evident on his features. you glare at your test score written in big, red numbers.
itâs almost as if itâs taunting you.
âseriously, you good?â harry checks. âyou could always talk to me, y/l/n,â he nudges your foot with his own. âi failed, harry. i fucking failed the test,â you mutter. âwhat? lemme see,â harry demands.
you wordlessly push your test towards him. he picks it up and examines it, frowning at the paper in his hands. you press your lips together.
âjust a point off, huh? it could be worse. shit was hard, man,â harry comforts you, giving you your test. you put it face-down this time. âyeah? whatâd you get?â you challenge. âthatâs between me and warren,â he taps your nose with his index finger. âso what iâm hearing is, you passed,â you conclude. âbarely, but i didnât want you to feel bad,â he admits. ânothing could make me feel worse than the fatass F on my paper,â you deadpan.
your gaze lands on peter parker up at ms. warrenâs desk, watching their exchange.
âexcellent work, peter. i was very impressed,â ms. warren compliments. she even smiles at him, something she never does. âthank you, that means a lot,â peter smiles back, retrieving his test from her. âmost students get stumped on the constructed response. not you, though,â she goes on.
peter is the by far brightest student at midtown. you know it, he knows it, everybody knows it. he doesnât have to try for it, either. heâs one of those people whoâs naturally smart, shit just comes to him. you swear the kidâs brain must be wired different or something.
you think itâs pretty damn cool how genius peter is. youâve got to wonder what itâs like being such a science whizz. you donât have enough brain cells for it, though. youâre killing them all off, fucking around and getting high.
itâs whatever. youâre more of an english kind of gal, anyway.
ânerd alert!â harry calls to peter, hands cupped over his mouth to project his voice. peterâs brows furrow as he searches for the source of it. âdude, leave him,â you smack at his chest.
the bell rings, signaling the end of the period. your classmates hurry out of their seats and file towards the door. ms. warren reminds everyone of an upcoming homework assignment on the way out. you flip her off behind her back, to which harry snickers at.
âlunchtime,â you wiggle your eyebrows. âletâs go smoke.â
âjeez, y/n. what did you get right?â liz murmurs, flipping through your physics test. ânot much, as you can see,â you answer. you take a long drag from your cigarette before passing it off to harry. âhey, itâs no big deal. thereâs always the next one,â harry tries.
youâre seated at your usual picnic table outside. you sit up on the tabletop with harry and liz on the bench facing you. harry inhales smoke from the cigarette and puffs it out in your face. you waft the smoke back towards him with a giggle, liz sighing at both of your childish behavior.
harry osborn and liz allan are your very best friends in the whole world. theyâre your ride or dies. peter may be well known around midtown, but heâs not the only one. you three have got quite the reputations yourselves. just, for different attributes.
youâre the best fuck, got the best stash. harry is your dealer. liz has the brains, so she gets you and harry out of the trouble you get yourselves into. sheâs not afraid to let loose from time to time, though. the three of you make the perfect trio.
ây/n, youâve gotta get your grades up,â liz warns. âwarrenâs tough. she wonât think twice about failing you, and i mean for the year,â she sets your test down in your lap. âtoo bad i canât fuck her for an A,â you say, snatching your cigarette back from harry.
harry flicks your knee over your jeans. you kick your foot at him in retaliation. he dodges you.
âiâm serious. i had her last year, remember?â liz asks, sipping her iced cofeee. âyeah, yeah. lucky you, you already took physics,â you speak with the cigarette between your teeth. âexactly, so i know what sheâs like,â liz finishes. you exhale smoke and a chuckle along with it. âyou wanna help me out then, lizzie?â you question.
âyou mean, like, tutor you?â liz wonders, her features holding amusement. âwhy not? youâre smart, you know the curriculum. letâs do it,â you propose. âiâd love to, but i canât. iâm really busy with decathlon, and yearbook, andâŠâ she smiles apologetically. âsay no more, madam president. i understand,â you assure her.
you jam your cigarette into the wooden table to put it out, tapping the ashes onto your physics test. you peer around the courtyard at the other tables. peter parker happens to be at one of them. heâs laughing about something with his friends, prompting your lips to pull up in a grin.
âyou should ask parker to tutor you,â harry suggests. âare you out of your mind? he would never,â you scoff. âare you out of yours? heâs a pro at physics, and iâve seen you checking him out,â he pokes your knee, hard.
you wave him off, although you donât deny it.
âoh my god, you totally should!â liz chimes in. âi coach peter for decathlon, heâs awesome. iâm sure heâd be happy to do it,â she vouches for him. âyou think so?â you narrow your eyes at her. âof course. heâs a sweetheart,â liz laughs out. âcâmon, ask him,â harry encourages. âright now?â you peek over at peter.
heâs munching on a carrot stick, listening intently as one of his friends rambles.
ânot like he has much else going on,â harry states, stealing lizâs coffee and chugging whatâs left of it.
you are in desperate need of a tutor. thereâs no way youâre repeating physics. once is more than enough, so youâll take all the help you can get to pass the godforsaken class. itâs your senior year. if you fail, you risk not graduating. besides, peter is an expert, and he seems chill. if anyone can help you, itâs him.
itâs worth a shot.
âsure, what the hell?â you decide, swinging your legs off the table. âattagirl! thatâs the spirit!â harry cheers. âremind him thereâs acadec practice after school. he hasnât been showing for some reason,â liz requests. âpeter parker cutting classes? i gotta give him more credit,â you joke.
you stand up on the bench before hopping down into the grass. you then make your way over to peterâs table. as youâre approaching him, you shake out your oversized t-shirt to rid it of the smell of smoke. you plaster on your sweetest smile and stride up to peter and his friends, going to the head of the table. the three of them are caught up in their conversation.
âwhatâs up, parker?â you speak up. peterâs head whips in your direction. âleeds, watson,â you nod at his friends, ned and mj. mj nods back. ây/l/n,â ned greets, trying to play cool. âto what do we owe the pleasure?â mj asks. peter merely stares up at you. âcan i sit?â you ask him. âuh, yeah. go ahead,â he mumbles.
you take the empty spot on the bench next to peter. his eyes practically pop out of his head.
peter is shocked youâre talking to him. he canât recall you two ever even speaking before now. thereâs also the fact that youâre you, and heâs him. itâs not like you run in the same circles.
whatâs your deal?
âyouâre probably wondering what iâm doing here,â you read peterâs mind. âwhat if i told you i knew a way you could make a dollar or two?â you start. he perks up, interest piqued. âkeep talking,â he replies, nibbling on another carrot. âtutoring. have you ever considered it?â you grin, proud of your idea.
âtutoring for what?â mj questions. âand who?â ned piggybacks. you lock eyes with peter. âme, for physics,â you reveal. peter is dumbfounded, and his face doesnât hide it. âseriously?â he almost chokes on his carrot. âthat hard to believe, huh?â you chuckle. âi mean, no offense, butâŠâ he looks to ned and mj. âyouâre not exactly the tutoring type,â mj grimaces.
âlisten,â you sigh, glancing between the three of them. âit wasnât my first choice either, but iâm failing, and thatâs not an option,â you explain. âi really donât wanna retake this shit. i wonât make it through another year⊠not alive, at least.â
your voice quiets towards the end of your sentence. you pick at your manicured nails, gaze drifting to the ground. peterâs lips twitch into a sympathetic frown.
this must be heavy on your mind. heâd hate to see you struggling when he knows he could help, or anyone for that matter. plus, you offered to pay. he could really use the money.
âwhy peter, though? why do you want him to tutor you?â mj inquires. âyeah, why peter?â ned gawks. âliz wasnât available,â you honestly answer. ned and mj share a look. âno, but seriously. heâs the smartest guy in our class. hell, heâs the smartest guy at this school,â you flash peter a smile. peter finds himself returning it. âwho better than him?â you rationalize. âfair enough,â he decides.
âis that a yes? youâll do it?â you ask. âiâll do it,â peter confirms. you grab him by his shoulder, face lighting up. âperfect! when do we start?â you wonder. âhowâs today after school, if youâre free?â he responds, laughing softly at your enthusiasm. âi am, but youâre not. decathlon practice,â you click your tongue.
âhow did youâŠâ peter trails off. âliz,â ned and mj reply in unison. you beam at them. âokay. um, after practice? we could meet up?â peter lets his eyes flit to yours. âtext me your addy. looking forward to working with you, parker,â you conclude, getting up from the bench. âyou too, y/l/n. see you later,â he shoots you another smile.
you wave to ned and mj before jogging back over to your table. ned claps peter on the back, whoâs looking at you over his shoulder.
if he only knew what he was in for.
ânice work, everyone! donât forget to review the topics we discussed for next practice,â liz dismisses the decathlon team.
the team stands from the table, each saying their goodbyes to one another. peter and ned pack up their things.
âi canât believe y/n y/l/n is coming over to your apartment,â ned raves. âneither can i,â peter murmurs, shoving books in his backpack. âseriously, peter! this is a once in a lifetime opportunity! what are you gonna wear?â ned asks. âuh, this?â peter gestures to his science pun t-shirt and khakis. âdude,â ned groans.
âi mean, does it matter? iâm only tutoring her, ned,â peter reminds him. âpeter, you donât just tutor a girl like y/n,â ned refutes. peter zips his backpack, looking blankly at him. âweâre gonna study, and iâm gonna get paid. thatâs all,â he brushes him off. âthatâs why iâm doing it, you know. for the money,â he slips a backpack strap onto his shoulder.
âreally? thatâs the only reason?â ned presses. âand, because i feel bad for her. nobody should have to retake physics. itâs the spawn of satan,â peter justifies. the two of them begin to make their way out of the auditorium. âtrue. well, good luck. let me know how it goes,â ned pats his friend on the shoulder. âalright. thanks, man,â peter replies before ned leaves the auditorium.
âpeter!â liz shouts out. âcome here a sec!â
peter clutches onto his backpack strap, head tilted to the side. he walks back over to the table, where liz is tidying the space. she pauses to rip a piece of paper from her notebook. she scribbles something down on it, then hands it to him.
ây/nâs number,â liz says. âright, thanks,â peter nods, tucking the paper into his pocket. âgood job today, by the way. we missed you. donât work y/n too hard,â she winks. âmissed you guys too, and i wonât,â peter chuckles, exiting the auditorium at last.
once peter is settled in at home, he retrieves your number from his pocket. he puts it into his phone, lips pursed curiously. without thinking too much of it, peter types out his address and hits send. you reply all but a second later.
peter jumps when his phone buzzes, not expecting you to answer so fast. he cracks a small smile as he reads your message.
be there soon! brace yourself parker :)
peter gathers his physics materials while you head over to his apartment. he then decides to neaten up the messy space in anticipation of your arrival. youâre his company, he supposes. besides, his aunt may will surely appreciate him cleaning up after himself for a change. sheâs always saying the place is a pigsty.
heâs pushing a cereal box into the kitchen cabinets when you knock at his door. he quickly closes the cabinets and scrambles to get the door, but not without stopping to check his reflection in the toaster. he meticulously combs back his hair with his fingers before he realizes what heâs doing.
ned must have gotten in his head.
peter rolls his eyes at himself and fixes his hair the way he had it. he pads over to the door, turning the knob to reveal you on the other side. you sport a wide grin, a textbook hugged to your chest. heâs pleasantly surprised that you came prepared.
âletâs get to work, shall we?â you prompt. âwe shall. come on in,â peter invites you.
you wander inside, your perfume filling the air as you pass by. peter shuts the door and meets you at his kitchen table, where youâve already seated yourself. you get comfortable in your chair, leaning back with one leg crossed over the other. you open up your textbook. peter sits across from you and does the same.
âso, whatâs on the agenda?â you question. âi figured we could start at the beginning, go back to the basics,â peter responds. âweâll take it slow, okay?â he looks over at you. âmm, not my specialty,â you remark. peterâs eyes widen at your innuendo. âkidding. whatever you think, parker. weâre in your territory now,â you say.
âokay, cool. turn to page-â peter cuts himself off when you plop into the seat next to him. âiâd rather look on with you, if thatâs alright. iâm a visual learner,â you explain. âsure, whatever works for you,â he assures you, flipping to the first chapter.
you move in so you can see better. your shoulder squishes against peterâs, the sweet scent of your perfume smelling stronger from how close you are. your lips part, then curve into a smile. peter gets distracted by your gaze, subconsciously inching even closer to you. you nod for him to start. he snaps out of his daze and shifts to face forward.
what the hell was that?
pull it together, peter. pull it together.
âchapter one, introduction to dynamics,â peter reads aloud. you follow along with your finger on the paper. âdynamics is the study of bodies in motion. dynamics is concerned with describing motion and explaining its causes,â he begins, glancing at you. âyou okay with that?â he checks. âyeah, so far so good,â you affirm. âawesome. the general field of dynamics consists of two major areas,â he continues.
âshould i be taking notes or something? i, uh, donât wanna get lost,â you confess. peter looks up from the textbook, his kind eyes meeting yours. âis that how you usually study?â he asks. âon the rare occasion i do, yeah. i take notes as i go,â you reply. âiâm not sure how well it works, though. itâs sometimes too much to understand at once,â you shrug, chewing your lower lip.
âmaybe we could try a different approach,â peter speaks quietly. âhow about we read through the chapter first, then go back and write down what you think is important after?â he grins. you smile back, lip still between your teeth. âthat sounds good. i like that,â you agree. âgreat, letâs go on. stop me anytime you want me to explain something, okay?â he offers. âmhm, thanks,â you hum.
âthe general field of dynamics consists of two major areas: kinematics and kineticsâŠâ
you and peter take your time working through the first chapter of your physics textbook. heâs impressed by your positive attitude and drive to learn more, taking an active interest in everything he covers. youâre grateful for peterâs patience with you and how willing he is to answer all your questions in as many ways as you need him to. you have a lot of them.
the session goes way better than either of you were expecting. although youâve nowhere near mastered physics yet, youâre at least putting in an effort.
âthis is a good place to stop for today, but weâre making progress,â peter eventually decides. you face palm into the textbook. âthank god. thereâs only so much physics i can take,â you grumble. âyou and me both,â he concurs, venturing into the kitchen. âsnack?â he asks you. âyes, please,â you do a thumbs up.
âhow was decathlon practice?â you make conversation while peter searches his fridge. âiâll spare you the details. i think iâve bored you enough for one day,â peter chuckles. âi asked, didnât i?â you reiterate. you sit back up in your chair. âuh, it was good. we just ran some drills, talked about nationals,â he elaborates, now rummaging through the cabinets.
âah, liz told me you guys might go back this year. youâre the reigning champs,â you recall. âthatâs us,â peter echoes. when he opens the cabinet, the cereal he put away earlier falls out. âyou like fruit loops?â he questions, holding up the box. âdude, i fucking love them. gimme,â you command.
peter pours you each a bowl of cereal and brings them back over to the table. you dig in, earning lighthearted laughter from him.
âwhenâs our next session?â you ask between a mouthful of fruit loops. âi thought we could meet, like, once a week or so. so, next week?â peter answers. you drop your spoon. âthatâs it?â you inquire. âyou wanna meet more than that?â peter copies your incredulous tone. you give him a look, a dead-serious look. âif you think itâll help you, sure,â he says before downing the last of his cereal.
peter carries your empty bowls to the sink to wash them out. you push in your chair, fumbling around in your jeans for your wallet.
âwell, iâve gotta run. me and harry have some⊠business to attend to,â you speak over the running water. âweâll discuss more tomorrow. thank you, parker. for the tutoring and the fruit loops,â you send him another smile. âyouâre welcome. glad i could be of service,â he replies, and means it. âmoneyâs on the table. see ya!â you inform him before rushing out the door.
did that really just happen?
peter dries off his hands with a kitchen towel and goes back over to collect the money. he sorts through it, blinking wildly. you left him a couple of twenty dollar bills. they smell of sugary vanilla, your signature scent.
âthis is definitely more than a dollar or two,â peter remarks, pocketing the twenties.
that really just happened.
âalright, y/l/n. whatâs it gonna be?â harry questions.
heâs multitasking, rolling a blunt while he deals to you. youâre sprawled across his bed on your stomach, feet up and kicking behind you. youâd come straight to his place after leaving peterâs. you need to restock your supplies, so it was time to hit him up.
âan ounce of your finest,â you respond. harry licks and pinches the rolling paper to shape it. âweed?â he asks. âyeah. iâm not into hard stuff,â you quirk a stern brow. âand what a shame that is, y/l/n. you have no idea what youâre missing,â harry sighs, setting down the freshly formed blunt. âiâd like to keep it that way,â you mumble.
âan ounce of my finest, coming right up,â harry announces. he tosses you a small, sealed baggie, which you catch. âpleasure doing business with you, osborn,â you let out a raspy laugh. âcan i get some E, too?â you wonder. âlemme see if i have any. i was almost out, last time i checked,â harry rubs his chin.
you often wonder where harry gets this shit from. his father is a big businessman with connections all over the city, so you assume itâs something to do with that. the osborn name, that is.
âwhat do you need ecstasy for, anyway?â harry questions. âalways like to have some, just in case. itâs fun to fuck on,â you clarify, arching your back to stretch it out. âtrust me, i know,â he wiggles his eyebrows. he opens up a drawer he uses to hide his stash, fishing around for the ecstasy. âwhoâre you fucking nowadays?â he pries. âwho am i not fucking?â you counter.
his hand emerges with another baggie, this one with two pills resembling smiley faces inside.
âcome and get it,â harry prompts you. you lunge forward and reach for the bag, but he pulls it away. âthatâs gonna cost extra, since iâm running low,â he smiles wickedly. âwhatever it is, iâll pay it,â you concede.
harry holds out his hand for you to place your wallet in it. you give it to him, sitting up on your knees. he gathers all the cash you have and counts the bills out. he inspects the pile with his tongue out in concentration.
âyouâre short,â harry tells you.
you pat your pockets to feel around for any loose money. much to your dismay, there isnât any.
âaw, shit. i gave the rest of my cash to parker,â you remember. âspot me?â you grin hopefully. âiâll take this for now, and you can pay me the rest some other time,â harry compromises, putting the pile down on top of his dresser. âdeal,â you seize the bag of ecstasy out of his hand.
âspeaking of parker, howâd your study sesh go?â harry wonders. he grabs a lighter and the blunt he just rolled. âreally good, actually. heâs an awesome tutor. plus, heâs literally the nicest guy ever,â you respond. âis he now?â harry asks, lighting up his blunt. âyup. he even made me fruit loops,â you add. âwow, fruit loops. i dunno what more you could ask for,â harry quips.
âlay off him, would you? it was cute,â you defend. harry inhales a generous amount of smoke from his blunt. âcareful, y/l/n,â he warns, exhaling the smoke. âif i didnât know any better, iâd think you have a crush,â he taunts. you tsk at him. âme? a crush? never,â you proclaim, snatching the blunt from harry.
harry looks you up and down inquisitively, then retrieves more paper to roll himself another blunt.
âshe wants to meet again already? dude, she likes you,â ned nudges peterâs arm.
peter is filling ned and mj in on how your tutoring session went the next day at school. the three of them walk side by side in the hallway as they chat.
âor sheâs just trying to pass physics, like she said,â mj corrects. âor both,â ned levels with her. peter shakes his head, eyeing ned. âno, mjâs right. y/n worked really hard last night. she wants to do well, is all,â he says. âof course iâm right. iâm always right,â mj declares. neither peter nor ned dare to disagree with her. âi have my theories, you guys have yours,â ned murmurs.
âuh huh. anyway, i should get to class. later, dorks,â mj dismisses herself from her friends. âbye, em,â peter replies.
ned pulls peter off to the side once mj is gone. he grips at either of peterâs arms, staring into his eyes with intensity. peter looks around the hall to make sure no one else notices their odd encounter.
âthe signs are right there in front of you, peter. y/n wants you!â ned says. âi bet sheâd totally hook up with you if you asked her,â he convinces. peterâs mouth falls open. âned! have some class!â he whisper yells. ârelax, dude. itâs what she does,â ned justifies. âand itâs none of our business. câmon, weâre gonna be late,â peter chastises him.
peter isnât proud of it, but he thinks more about what ned said after their conversation. you were sort of touchy with him yesterday. heâs not oblivious to the way you look at him, either. and, hey, itâs no secret you get around. not that that gives peter a right to your body or anything. itâs just something to consider.
realistically, youâre probably only being friendly. you act like that with pretty much everyone. peter doubts heâs even your type. youâre more likely to go for someone in your own league, someone more like harry osborn. for all peter knows, you already have.
when itâs time for physics, peter slips into his usual seat at the front and center of the room. he unpacks his things and waits for ms. warren to start the class. you and harry rush in as the bell is ringing, giggling about something amongst yourselves. peterâs eyes follow you to the back of the room, where the two of you sit. you give peter a wave and a small smile. he waves back, then turns to face the board.
âgood afternoon, everyone. how are we all doing?â ms. warren greets. the class mumbles their responses. âglad to hear it. today, weâll be peer reviewing your unit test i handed back yesterday,â she paces around the room. âas long as you work diligently, you may choose your own partners.â
you and harry fist bump each other. peter sinks down in his seat.
he dreads partner work in physics. none of his friends are in his class, so he always ends up alone. itâs humiliating.
âany discrepancies, come see me. iâll be right up here. get to work, class,â ms. warren instructs.
thereâs a chorus of chairs screeching and kids chattering as everyone splits into pairs. peter remains seated, his cheeks tinting pink. he gets out his test and looks through it absentmindedly, gaze going from the test to the clock. heâs ready for physics to be over. ms. warren strides over to his desk, a knowing look on her face.
âtrouble finding a partner?â ms. warren questions. âi donât mind working alone,â peter assures her. the deep shade of pink coating his cheeks says otherwise. âunfortunately for you, peter, this is peer review,â she laughs lightly. âweâre missing a few students today, so weâre an odd number. why donât you join another group?â she asks.
âoh. um, iâm not sure anybody would wannaâŠâ peter starts to make an excuse. âhey, parker!â you summon him. he turns to face you. âweâre looking for a third,â you say suggestively, harry smirking. peter glances back at ms. warren for approval. âyour choice,â she comments before walking over to her desk.
peter weighs his options. he could either stay up here and die of embarrassment, or join you and harry. he decides to go with the latter.
he grabs his things and makes his way over to the two of you. you drag over an empty desk for him, grinning up at him. he instantly feels more at ease as he takes the seat, until harry speaks up.
âwhatâd you get on the test, parker? iâll show you mine if you show me yours,â harry offers. âuh, i donât think weâre actually supposed to share our grades-â peter is interrupted by harry taking his test off his desk. âokay, sure,â he says instead. harry hums to himself at peterâs almost perfect score. ânot bad, not bad,â he understates. âthanks,â peter nods. âyou said it, y/l/n. parker here is brilliant,â harry concludes.
âyou think iâm brilliant?â peter gives you a shy smile. âcâmon, parker. you are brilliant,â you push his shoulder playfully. âyou two can compare grades later. letâs get to it, gentlemen,â you boss. âyes, maâam,â harry salutes you, handing peter his test. âwhere did you guys wanna start?â peter wonders.
âfrom the top. iâd already fucked up on question one,â you show peter your test. thereâs a big red X on the first question. âme, too,â harry sighs. âno worries, it was a hard one,â peter tells you both. âcan i see your test again?â he asks you. you give it to him, brows raised. âfor multiple choice, i recommend using process of elimination,â he begins. âgood strategy,â harry acknowledges.
âletâs read through the choices. are there any you know right off the bat are wrong?â peter questions you. âuh, hold on,â you mumble.
you push the eraser of your pencil against your lips, reading the question to yourself. peterâs eyes canât help but to trail down to your lips. you pout your bottom one out and turn the test towards you. peter sucks in a breath. your arm rests on his desk, head ever so slightly leaned against his.
âwhat about A?â you catch his attention. peterâs eyes move back up to yours. âhuh?â he splutters. âchoice A. thatâs wrong, right?â you repeat. âright, yeah,â he laughs awkwardly. âso itâs wrong?â you squint. âthis is getting confusing. let me just,â peter chuckles again, crossing out A on your test. âthere, process of elimination. you wanna do the rest?â he wonders.
âcould i try, or is three a crowd?â harry buts in. âchill, harry. donât act like you give a fuck about this stuff,â you tease, leaning further into peter. more color paints his cheeks just as they were paling. âyou didnât either âtil yesterday,â harry reminds you. âyeah, well, a certain someone showed me i could,â you nudge peterâs arm.
a toothy grin creeps onto peterâs face.
âhow about y/n finishes up question one, and harry, you take the next one,â peter suggests. âalrighty, then. iâll get started,â harry agrees, picking up his pencil and beginning question two.
peter waits while the two of you redo the questions. you stay close to his side as you solve yours, using process of elimination to choose what you believe to be the correct answer. you elbow him gently once youâre finished.
âcould you check this?â you ask peter. âsure, one sec,â he says, sliding your paper over to himself. you search for his eyes as they roam your paper. âhowâd i do?â you bite into your lower lip. âum, you didnât get it,â peter tells you. âseriously? shit, man. iâm a lost cause... iâm no good at this,â you complain.
âhey, donât say that. youâre trying. that matters more than anything else,â peter reassures you. âyouâve got a long way to go, but youâll get there. iâm here to help you,â he smiles. âthanks. i know iâm kinda slow at this shit, so thank you for being patient,â you reply. âthanks for being so understanding, too,â you place one of your hands atop his.
âyou donât have to thank me. i am your tutor, after all,â peter breathes out a laugh. ânot right now, youâre not. youâre off the clock,â you point out. âiâm also your friend,â he toys with your fingers. âi mean, if you want me to be,â he hastily adds. âi do, yeah. friends it is,â you grin at him.
even though youâve only known peter about a day, you could feel a fast friendship blooming. heâs not like harry or liz. heâs a teacherâs pet, heâs constantly tripping over his words. but, heâs also sweeter to you than anyone else is, guys especially. although, itâs not like the bar is set very high. the point is, you like that peter treats you differently than the other students at midtown do. itâs refreshing.
you donât mind expanding your circle for him one bit.
âaye yo, parker,â harry taps peter on the shoulder. âthis look right to you?â
he flashes peter his answer sheet, snorting. rather than doing question two like he was supposed to, he colored the empty bubbles in the shape of a dick. peter sports a pained expression. you give him a pat on the back.
âwelcome to my world.â

Firstly~ just discovered you and LOVE your writing! <3 Your Hcâs about stealing the haori and King KyĆ and the panic attack are *chefâs kiss* Secondly! as a black fem whoâs obsessed with her hair (and KyĆâs hair does things to me ; w; )would you ever please consider doing an Hc or story about KyĆ x reader and/or other hashira positively interacting with the readerâs curly hair? ^//////////^ fluff or smut it doesnât matter~ hair worship and love are everything! Tysvm and I hope to read more of your work soon! <3
thank you so much!!! and huuuuuuUUUUNIE you know i fantasize about these beautiful folks taking care of me and my natural hair too, especially mr. golden boy himself â pls enjoy <3
s/o with natural hair
| ft. rengoku, mitsuri, tengen, sanemi, shinobu
Rengoku
I honestly think someone with natural hair would be a perfect match for Kyo, since a large part of his identity is being boisterous, especially how he stands out with his loud, fiery mane
when he meets you, your hair is obviously one of the first things he notices and he comments on it LOUDLY
âIâve never seen hair curl in such a way as to defy gravity!â
the other pillars nod in agreement and carry on, except for Tengen who just sits back and smirks at the attention Rengoku gives you for the rest of the day ;)
if you ever feel insecure, he has plenty of his own hair stories to share with you since he often stands out for a similar reason
âdid you know that the mothers of the Rengoku family stare at a lit torch for three hours every day while pregnant? thatâs why my familyâs hair all looks like this!â
um
i did not know that, no.
maybe you can get out of that
when it comes to taking care of your hair though
uuuuh
Rengoku is at least ready to learn
âI have to wash my hair today Kyo, you should probably run errands without meâ
ânonsense! Iâd much rather go with you, I can wait, itâs no trouble. How long will you be?â
o-o
ten minutes later youâre both in the shower because he insisted his help would speed things up
heâs a little rough the first few times he helps part, but once you stress how important it is to be gentle, it almost brings you to tears how focused and happy he is while detangling
he wants you to feel beautiful and above all else, for every part of you to be healthy. hair included
Kyo has a deep respect for the skill that goes into caring for your hair properly
youâve put countless hours (months, years!) into practicing this skill, just like any swordman and their technique
so prepare for him to brag about all the unseen hard work you put into a specific style when the other hashira compliment you
500/10 haircare boyfriend
Mitsuri
maybe contrary to popular belief, this girl loves your hair so so so much, but cannot be trusted to help you take care of it
she just gets too excited
âmitsuri which style is better? this one orââ
âEEEEK!â
sheâs on the floor
âroji, look how long myââ
âGORGEOUS Y/Nâ
it always makes you blush but doesnât exactly save time
she also does not have the gentlest hands
inhuman strength and all
so she may not help on wash day
but sheâs a great cheerleader, no matter how long it takes she likes to lounge in the bath with you
mitsuri does excel in two specific departments
1) decoration
she loves tying ribbons in your hair so you two can match
and she loves decorating your styles with beautiful pins, so you twinkle and jingle like a geisha
the hair products she buys you smell like she robbed them from heaven
2) protection
sheâs on Y/n hair guard 24 hours a day 7 days a week
never forgets an umbrella in case you get caught in the rain
she will throw her literal body underneath of you to keep your hair from getting messed up
youâre too cute for that, no way
tengen's priorities are wives, civilians, himself
mitsuriâs priorities are y/n, y/nâs hair, herself, the mission, lunch, both your outfits, teammates
100/10 enthusiasm
Tengen
words almost cannot describe how perfectly this man treats your hair
like
he just thinks you're so fucking flamboyant and loves you so much
tengen will sit in the bathroom with you after a mission and wash your hair for you
how does he know to pre-poo??
he doesnât pull your hair a single time and heâs somehow already conditioning it in eight even sections?? itâs been ten minutes??
the scalp massage alone is orgasmic
you look at him sideways for a few days after that first time, bc this man must be the biggest slut youâve ever met
and a skincare routine??
truly run through
besides his finger detangling skills, what he really loves to do is style
heâs got golden hair pins, lengths of ribbon, beads, jewels
he can part, smooth, twist, plait, shingle, braidâ
â is that a crochet needle??
watching his large hands do such nimble work is just a reminder of how much he loves you
if your hair is long enough, he makes sure to braid it back before a mission so that it doesnât get in the way during an important fight
or get cut, literally god forbid. he would go on a rampage
your bed sheets and pillows are all silk
tengen and the wives all want to sleep near you because the smell of your hair is so sweet and soothing
you make the house 10x more flashy by just being in it, and the other hashira are always in awe of your elaborate bejewled styles, tengenâs ego almost canât handle it
1000/10 can do my hair better than my stylist
Sanemi
literally doesnât even bat an eye the first time you meet
curly hair? big deal. inosuke wears a pig on his head
but i mean
have you seen his hair..?
iâm pretty sure he just wakes up and jumps out the window to start his day
but he loves you so
the first time he registers the significance of your hair is when heâs impatiently waiting for cuddles for you to get out of the shower
âwhatâs taking you so long dumbass? get in bed! if youâre mad at me for something, making me sleep alone isnât gonna weasel an apologyââ
âsanemi jesus christ, iâm not finished washing my hair!â
âyouâve been in there thirty minutes already! wasting all my goodman waterâ how the fuck loââ
âlong, sanemi. this will take a long time. go to sleep, give me some peaceâ
sanemi is determined to know how youâre so bad at washing the hair youâve had all your life, that it could possibly take hours to do
fucking amature
heâll show you
waitâ
huh.
when he storms into the bathroom youâre squatting on the stool beside the tub, surrounded by potions and clips
thisâŠthis is not usually what washing hair looks like
âmove over!â he grumbles when finds his bearings
usually you just laugh off any extra aggression from him; he would never hurt you
nonconsensually
but this time! lives are at stake
âsanemi no.â
youâre not usually so serious with him, so he settles down next to you quietly. grumpily. but still refusing to give up
âif you want to help, then you have to do what i say.â
the next few, sleepy hours, are some of the sweetest in your relationship so far
heâs not the most skilled hairdresser, but he takes this new job so seriously
he slowly detangles from tip to root
câmon nemi maybe not that slowly, itâs fucking late
smooths your hair shaft down with cold water so the twists arenât frizzy
and the whole time heâs fuming
but seeing the attention heâs giving each strand, and how delicate heâs being despite his raging frustration, sets your loins heart alight
youâve never seen him so quiet and still
heâs not big on creative styling, but heâs determined to get the basics down
he offers to shave your head every time he gets frustrated with a tangle
like mitsuri, this man will fight a puddle if it means keeping both your hard work safe
(he helps you every single wash day now)
and in moments of still
when he wakes up before you
when youâre distracted with work
any time he comes up behind you
he begins to admire your little curls more and more because of how carefully you love them
so he loves you a little more carefully too
250/10 a little confused but heâs got the spirit
Shinobu
much like kyojuro, she seriously respects the dedication it takes to not only keep your hair healthy but keep it looking so beautiful!
she sees how much time you put into taking care of you hair, and because she loves you she wants to help any way she can
sheâs not big on hands on care; sheâs worried she might hurt you or worse, damage your hair
but sheâs a scientist!
an inventor!
and sheâs gonna make the Taisho era your personal beauty supply store
she makes every single product you use, determined to give you only the best
howâd she silk press your hair in 1905??
you have a colorful array of silk scarves and bonnets because this girl runs a high-fashion butterfly mansion
did someone say wisteria-infused hair care??
smells good all day, and is deadly in battle!
one of her proudest inventions
âif a demon touches your hair in combat, their epidermis will be affected by a low-level poison!â
âko, you made my leave-in poison?!â
âonly for demons honeyâ
youâre not sure how she did it, but for some reason you attract butterflies when youâre out and about now
âwhatâ what the fuckâ ko!â
she races outside when you call from the garden, worried your hurt, but youâre just standing deadly still while three butterflies flit around your head
youâre in awe
are you magical?
you never figure out her secret
your hair has literally never been so soft
itâs growing like crazy, your protective styles canât keep up
Kocho may not be hands on when it comes to washing, but you can always rely on her for a trim
sheâll sit you on the floor and trim your hair section by section
your curls always bounce back so well when sheâs finished, youâre amazed how she takes off the perfect amount of length!
it is literally the most stressful event on her calendar every month
^^^she refuses to admit itâs a challenge for her
she practices on the girls before ever taking a pair of scissors near your head
Aoi had fucking crazy bangs for a few weeks when you first moved in and you never really thought much about it
650/10 you feel like a lab rat sometimes but you know youâre being pampered

Beginning and End by mightbewriting: Years. Broken into months into weeks into daysâinto hours, minutes, secondsâinto moments. Simple at one end, complex at the other.

At a certain point, wedged between âwhat-ifsâ of his own devising, heâd stopped trying to keep track of those regrettable moments: now and then, pushing and pulling, coming and going, beginning and end.

of flavoured names and coloured sounds by Pink Panda (Ejacyeolation):Â "He doesnât question it at first, the fact that sounds have colours and words have flavours.

The word father tastes like wet wood and the word mother tastes like the pumpkin juice the house-elves frequently serve him."In which Draco just wants to know what colour Hermione's moans would be.

Approximately one week after The Bullet Bestieâs rise to prominence, Jungkook grows annoyed with it as his weirdly competitive nature rears its ugly head the more and more orgasms that little vibrator coaxes out of you. It turns on a weird switch in him, something slightly stuck up and snooty that heâll never admit to out loud but is there nonetheless. By the following Friday, The Bullet Bestie is nestled deep in your garbage can and Jungkookâs back to pleasuring you with his tongue and fingers alone.
He had those moments in him, the ones where he liked to think he was better than any and everyone else, and occasionally they manifested against inanimate objects like a bullet vibrator.
Despite his polite and generally soft exterior, you catch glimpses of that cocky spirit more than anyone else. Over the past year, youâve come to realize that Jungkookâs personality was like a coin that had been left out in the sun too long. He had this sweet and reserved nature you saw most times, a kindhearted boyfriend who adored you almost as much as you adored him. He was your angel whom you knew had a heart of gold, even if you were slowly bringing out his more childish tendencies. You knew him like the back of your hand, knew what his momâs favorite color was and how he liked to stack the plates in his cabinet according to size and make. It was a side that was rusted from years of being out in the sun, basking in its adoring warmth, and you loved every inch about it.
And still, there was this other side to him you rarely saw. This cocky asshole who hid beneath the soft smiles and careful hands, making his appearance only through sly smirks and a tongue prodding against the inside of his cheek. He was a braggart, a man who knew his greatness yielded for no one and wanted that fact shoved down everyoneâs faces. This Jungkook, this other side that never saw the light of day, was like the Hyde to his Jekyll. An unexpected, almost mean side to him that only dared make his appearance when his exhilaration was at an all-time high. Like when he was fucking you into another dimension, or kicking your ass in Mario Kart, or like now, when he was receiving an award at an annual tech ceremony.
On the eve of your one year anniversary, Jungkookâs company invites him to an awards ceremony for other web and app developers like him. Itâs a grand event, filled with all the biggest nerds in the developing industry here to present the baby nerds with awards. Jungkook lies somewhere in the middle of the spectrum, both a seasoned player and a rookie all at once. He spends the night tolling you around in a floor-length gown and fangirling over all the âlegendsâ in the room.
You know next to none of these people and none of their accomplishments but still pretend you respect them to hell and back. By the end of the main dinner, youâre sympathizing with Barbieâs ever-smiling features because your cheeks feel sore.
Towards the end of the night, Jungkook wins that random awardâ okay, who were you fooling? He wins the Platinum Mobile Standard of Excellence Award, recognizing him for all the hard work youâve seen him put in this past year. Itâs probably the highest recognition he can receive at this point in his career. It was an esteemed award that was bestowed upon only the most innovative developer of the year among tech companies, something Jungkook had briefly mentioned he always wanted. Itâs basically the equivalent of placing first place in his field, but given Jungkookâs competitive industry and his young age, you think itâs like telling all these old Facebook lords to suck his big fat cock. (But that was your job when you got home.)
He gives a short little thank you speech, promising to work hard and own up to this title. The people around you are swooning, obviously endeared with his soft puppy dog features and melodic voice. They donât know him like you do, donât know that uppity twist to his grin like you do. It doesnât slip off his face even when he steps down off the stage, arms wide open as he comes barreling towards you. Even with you in his arms, the congratulations that are thrown from every direction ring loudly in his ears and swell that ego of his.
The night goes like that for the most part, Jungkookâs acquaintances approaching him every few minutes to rain down their praises. He goes a little crazy at the open bar after a while, shoving the gold trophy into your arms as his beloved work seniors whisk him off for drinks. You donât mind because you resigned yourself to a night of playing Jungkookâs perfectly perfect partner anyway, watching him politely mingling with his coworkers. Despite his earlier success, you know he wonât brag about it verbally. No, heâll wait until the two of you get homeâyour place or hisâand remind you how amazing he is with a quick snap of his hips.
As you said, heâll never boast aloud.
However, that doesnât mean you wonât.
âThatâs my boyfriend,â you explain to the seventh person that greets you that night, excitedly pointing to where said boyfriend was slowly losing all sense of self by the bar. You donât know anyone here beside Jungkook, and youâre pretty sure no one in their hammered minds is going to remember who you are anyway, so a little gloating never hurt anyone. âHe won the âIâm Better Than Everyone Elseâ award tonight,â you emphasize to the tipsy woman beside you who only laughs at your exaggeration. You assume sheâs like you, accompanying one of the many developers here, because as soon as you finish boasting about Jungkook she moves to brag about someone too.
Truth be told, you spend the whole night re-analyzing the Zootopia movie you saw on Disney+ the other night in your head. So if the little fox fellow didnât control himself would the city have fallen to ruins? Why was the useless sheep girl so evil and bitter? Why was there an unreal amount of romantic tension between the fox and the rabbit? Whatever, youâll have to rewatch it some other night, and with your new Disney+ account, you could watch it anywhere you wanted to.
Now, you had never bothered to purchase a Disney+ subscription or even tried to swindle Jungkook for his password before. As far as you know, Disney+ was filled with old tv shows from your childhood, sitcoms that made you laugh when you were ten. Thereâs nothing wrong with that, but personally, you were a firm believer that that which was perfect should not be touched once finished; in other words, you were utterly terrified youâd rewatch an old episode of The Wizards of Waverly Place, only to find out the same joke youâve been regurgitating for the past ten years doesnât actually go that way.
However, the harsh reality was that Disney+ was good for a few things. Ugh, you hate when giant corporations provide decent services. Aside from Zootopia, youâve watched about every animated media on there as well, all of which you replay in your mind as Jungkook has the time of his life with these nerds, knocking back champagne glass after champagne glass.
Anyway, the night ends a little past midnight, and Jungkook who is buzzed on alcohol and high on exhilaration ends up calling an Uber for the two of you. Your apartmentâ the new one he had not only helped you hunt for but also helped you move into, greatly cutting the cost of movers out with those glistening biceps and thick thighs âis still going through her rebellious phase where the potted plants are trying to take over, courtesy of Kim Namjoon. So for now, thereâs a potted plant in an awkward corner that both of you stub your toe against on your way to your bedroom.
Youâre thinking Jungkook is going to go to town tonight, given the fact heâs on Cloud 9 and has had his ego stroked by a bunch of dudes for the past couple hours. Maybe you guys can try out the hot role-playing scenario you saw on GirlsWay a few weeks ago, or the handcuffs you impulsively bought from Amazon one Monday night. Or maybe, and this one really makes you flutter, heâll let you fully take the reins for once.
All those lewd fantasies end up being for naught because just as you shimmy out of your gown (with the help of his hands, of course) and turn to climb him like a tree, heâs on the other side of the room getting your makeup remover out for you. And also talking. A lot. And way more than usual.
âDid you see him, babe?â he sighs, dare you to say, dreamily, handing you the cotton pads as he begins pulling a million pins out of your hair. Slowly and with a lot of confusion, you pull your fake lashes off and begin cleaning your face. âHe was amazing.â
âUh-huh,â you say, having absolutely no idea who âheâ is or why Jungkook is so in love with him and not you at this very moment. âBut so were you,â you add. Perfect. Stroke his ego and then stroke his cock.
Jungkook sputters at your praise. Heâs carefully placing your hairpins on your thigh, cheeks flaming red every time he leans over you. âWas I?â he murmurs, voice sweet in that cute little way it always gets when heâs downed one too many shots of whiskey, enough to be buzzed but not enough to be wasted.
You turn and the pins clatter to the floor and across the bedsheets. âYes,â you confirm, ignoring his sad huff at the mess youâve made. Instead, you grab him by the collar of that pink button-up he taunted you with all night. âYou were fucking incredible and I think incredible men deserve to have their dick sucked.â
Jungkook laughs at your vulgar statement, holding you gently by the hips as you climb into his lap. âIs that so?â The soft, shy persona is gone now, replaced by the gentle stirring beneath his dress pants. You nod hurriedly, plopping down on his lap and running your hands through his styled hair.
âYes,â you confirm, kissing the corner of his mouth. âLuckily for you, I know this nymphomaniac who would gladly gobble up your cock at your every command.â
He snorts just as you push him into his back, nose adorably scrunched up. âFirst of all, you know I hate that word,â he chuckles, finally gracing you with a sweet peck that only makes you want him to fuck you into the fifth dimension. âSecondly, please donât ever say youâll gobble my cock up ever again.â
Something inside of you squeals with excitement as he rolls the two of you over, firm body pressing down on yours. âOh, baby,â you groan, lazily throwing a leg over his hip. Jungkook grins and then decides to entertain you for a few minutes with a sloppy kiss.
You say a few minutes because just as things are heating up, he pulls away. He smiles apologetically. âAs much as Iâd love to be here with you, I actually have an early morning tomorrow.â
You frown at the sudden change in events. âHuh? Theyâre gonna make you work the morning after a Gatsby party?â you gasp, sitting up as he gets off of you. With every step he takes away from the bed your heart breaks a little more. âThey canât do thatâ thatâs illegal!â
From the doorway he levels you with a comically raised brow. âNo, itâs not.â
You scamper after him down the hall, watch the muscles in his back flex as he pulls his suit jacket on. âYou canât work on our anniversaryâ thatâs illegal!â you offer instead.
He stops at your front door, feet squeezed back into his shoes. âBaby, itâs not,â he rolls his eyes, leaning down to peck your forehead. âIt was either I work in the morning or work at night,â he explains, giving your messy hair a soothing caress. Heâs looking at you with those eyes, the ones that make your heart lodge itself into your throat and make life a tightrope experience. Thereâs a devastatingly lovesick part of you that wants this moment, this kind face, to be engraved into your mind for the rest of your life. You want this to be the first and last thought you have and nothing else: just Jungkookâs adoring gaze on you for the rest of time.
The moment ends too soon when he flutters one last peck against your lips. âIâll be done in the afternoon, okay?â
You pout. âOkay, your place?â you huff, making sure to get one last octopus squeeze around his waist. He nods. âPromise you wonât be late?â
The corners of his gaze soften. âYou know I wonât,â he smiles, leaning down to bump your noses together playfully. âCanât stay away from my pretty girl too long. Besides, I have a gift for you tomorrow.â
Itâs with that sentiment and a hammering heart that you let him go. With Jungkook gone, thereâs really nothing for you to do now. You took the next two days off in preparation for your anniversary sex, so you donât have to head to sleep early like usual.
With nothing else planned, you decide on rewatching that Zootopia movie that had plagued you all night, ready to dissect every plot hole to hell and back. You donât think Jungkookâs seen this movie yet so you add it to your long list of animated movies youâre forcing him to watch.
Part of you is actually really surprised Jungkook left. Well, kinda sorta, very, but not really. Jungkook was a good boy, that much was obvious. He took his job seriously, and if his job wanted him to come in at the asscrack of dawn, then heâd come in before the sun even rose. He was a goody-two-shoes, but even so, you were occasionally able to bring out that darker side in him.
Jungkook working, like actually working in an office setting, was pretty rare though. The dude had a chill job that let him stay home most of the time, and essentially clock in whenever he wanted. Every now and then you were able to convince him to stay, tucking him beneath your body or the covers, depending on the night, and refusing to let him go the morning after.
Once he had eaten you out until the wee hours of the day, ravenous between your thighs, and then went to work the next morning like he hadnât broken you. Another time you had persuaded him into watching every season of the 2017 DuckTales reboot through the night. When the alarm had rung in the middle of the season finale, he had simply gotten into your shower and gone off to work.
So maybe you were a little confident in your skills, and Jungkook slipping between your fingers tonight was a huge bummer. But there was no use crying over spilled milk, you tell yourself, flinging your bra off somewhere in the corner as you snuggle back into your sheets. Youâre ready to tear this Zootopia movie apart, scene by scene.
Even though your apartment is a little cold, youâre comforted by the fact Jungkook will be here to keep you warm all day tomorrow.
All men do is lie.
Despite his promise to come home early the next day, Jungkook ends up lying. The meeting he had been in all morningâ the same one that had stopped you from getting bent like a pretzel the night before âdrags on well past noon. Then, Kim Namjoon, AKA Jungkookâs favorite senpai in the entire world, catches wind of Jungkookâs success last night and absolutely has to take him out to lunch to celebrate.
You scoff, glaring down at your phone and the impulsive messages youâd sent out an hour ago when Jungkook had first texted you telling you he would be late.
You whirl around to stomp off in the direction of his living room, where all of yours and Jungkookâs favorite foods were growing colder by the minute. You had spent the longest time carefully laying them out, making sure the fried chicken was closer than the pizza but not closer than the breadsticks. Truthfully itâs a nightmare. There are about eight stomach aches worth of food sitting on his coffee table, the greasy stench makes you gag and will certainly stick to your hair for weeks, but none of that mattered because it was all for your beau.
Your very late beau who was making you grow more and more agitated with each minute that passed. Ugh! How inconsiderate of him to test your patience on a day like this. You didnât want to be upset with him, but this was your first, real milestone as a couple with him. You had wanted to spend the whole day cuddled up, maybe finally tell him how much he really meant to youâ definitely not waking up alone with eyeliner crusted eyes and an aching heart.
Deciding youâre being a little too dramatic, you head into the bedroom to calm down. This was fine, you tell yourself, carefully laying out the damn near harlotrous lingerie you had yet to put on. Jungkook would come over soon and everything would be A-okay.
Except for the part itâs actually F-not okay because soon itâs nearing sunset and the food has gone cold so youâve stocked it into the fridge, and the pretty sheer bra has a wonky wire thatâs two seconds away from piercing through your heart, but that doesnât even matter because Jungkook being late for your all-day anniversary celebration has already ripped it to shreds anyway. Â
You plop down on the couch in defeat, impulsively opening up the Disney+ app to cry through another episode of Phineas and Ferb. Youâve abandoned the satin robe that came with the lingerie in favor of donning a big t-shirt that smells like him and makes your heart hurt even more. The setting sun paints the living room in muted oranges, the chirping of birds outside the soundtrack to your lonely day.
You end up watching some other cartoon on Disney+, avoiding the Marvel section because you had promised Jungkook he could be there when you lost your Marvel virginity. Well, at least one of you was good at keeping promises, you think bitterly. For a second, you think about randomly watching one of the infamous MCU films out of order just to spite him. But then you think of that soft puppy gaze and how disappointed heâd be in you.
Whatever! It wouldnât ever match up to the way you felt now.
Anyway, you circle back. When youâre five episodes into Phineas and Ferb you hear the doorknob rattle.
You sit up just as the door swings open, visible from your spot on the couch. He meets your gaze almost immediately, big doe eyes caught in the act. What act? Youâre not really sure. In fact, you donât even know what youâre looking at when he walks in because heâs drowning in shopping bags. His lips twist into a grin. âHoney, Iâm home,â he says playfully.
You donât laugh.
Jungkook frowns, dumping all his bags down at the entrance before waddling over towards you. âHey, whatâs wrong?â he asks, coming to stand before you and cupping your face in his hands. Heâs towering over you, so tall and gorgeous but for the first time, youâre not dazed by his beauty.
âKook, you said youâd be back hours ago,â you say slowly, avoiding his gaze. You try to keep the frustration out of your voice, but youâve had hours to dwell on it now, and those annoying cartoon characters, though charming at first, had only served to multiply your annoyance. Â
Jungkook blinks, tucking a strand of hair behind your ear. âI mean⊠yeah. But I got you presents?â he beams, glancing back at the mountainous pile he made by the door. You look over too. There are some luxury bags squeezed in between other shops you like, the occasional jewelers' logo on the side.
You stand with a sigh, sauntering off into the kitchen with him on your tail. âI donât want presents,â you mumble, reaching to pour yourself a glass of water. Youâre briefly aware of how childish you must seem. Jungkook hovers behind you.
âWhat? Yes, you do,â he says. âYou had an entire wishlist on my Amazon of things you wanted.â Itâs his turn to level you with an unreadable expression, slowly crossing his arms over his chest.
Your frown only deepens as you turn to match his stance against the counter. While it may be true that you did indeed have an entire list of impulsive items on his Amazon, that didnât necessarily mean you wanted them all. Sometimes you just wanted to stare longingly at a pair of satin gloves without actually buying them. You donât know how to explain this much to him. âTheyâre notâŠâ you stop with another deep breath. âForget it. Thank you for the presents.â
Now itâs Jungkookâs turn to question you. âWhat,â he says in an unimpressed tone, padding over to you before you can escape back into the living room to watch the entire princess movie collection on Disney+. âNo, tell me whatâs wrong.â
For some reason, thatâs exactly what you donât want to hear. âJungkook,â you say flatly, narrowing your eyes at him. âYou come home six hours after you said you would without telling me why, and normally I wouldnât care, but today was supposed to be a special day for us.â
Jungkook reels at your bluntness. âBabe, I was out getting stuff for you. I know itâs our anniversaryâ thatâs why I wanted to treat you,â he responds, oddly condescendingly like youâre a child who doesnât understand what exactly he was doing.
You brush his hands away from your shoulders. âYeah,â you huff. âNow I know that. But I spent all day waiting for you,â you stress, chest puffing as you grow more and more agitated by his inability to understand you. God, can he let you go now? At least a bunch of animated, geometrically drawn cartoons wonât question you like this and make you feel as childish as he was.
When he doesnât say anything else you stomp back into the living room, snatching up your phone from its forgotten spot against the couch. âIâm going to bed.â
At that Jungkook seems to kickstart back to life. âWhat? ___, itâs barely six,â he says as he follows after you into your bedroom. You ignore him, shuffling beneath the covers. In all actuality, youâre going to bed to mope and watch more animated family shows, maybe cry under the guise of the plot just being so sad. Jungkook sits beside you just as you click back on to finish off your episode. âBaby, I donât get it,â he sighs. âYouâre always talking about how much you want this or that, and I go out and get you it all but now youâre mad?â
You bite down on your lip, eyes lasered in on the pictures moving before you. âJungkook, just forget it.â
âNo,â he says, more sternly than heâs ever been with you before. âIf thereâs a problem, tell me.â Thereâs a heavy pause, and then he says, âdonât make me waste my time guessing whatâs wrong, okay?âÂ
âWaste your time?â you scoff, sitting up with pinched brows that you find match his. âIâm not trying to waste anyoneâs timeâ in fact, thatâs hot coming from you, Jungkook.â
He rolls his eyes. âWhat are you even saying? Youâre mad because I took a little long getting presents, for you, might I add,â he huffs, plopping down on the edge of the mattress beside your knee. âYouâre always saying you want this and that, but you canât handle me going out to get those things? Do you hear how weird you sound?â
You whip the covers off of you. âMe talking about things doesnât always mean I want them,â you defend.
Jungkook snorts. âYes, it does,â he says. âAnytime you ramble about stuff for minutes like a little kid itâs because you want me to buy it for you.â
You blink. âLike a little kid?â you repeat, stunned by his comparison. Granted, you always knew you were the more childish of the two, but you never thought that would equate Jungkook thinking of you as a child. Something red and nasty flares in your chest. âWell sorry,â you spit, crossing your arms over your chest defensively, âsorry we all canât be perfectly mature golden boys who would never see the light of day if I constantly wasnât dragging them out.â You know itâs a somewhat low blow, especially because Jungkookâs told you before how his introverted tendencies were a sensitive issue growing up, but you canât help it.
Jungkook groans, dropping his head into his hands. âBaby, donât do this now,â he warns, digging the heels of his palms into his eyes. âStop acting like this.â
âLike how?â you spit, âlike a kid?â Jungkook says nothing, leveling you with a blank stare from the corner of his eye. You roll your eyes, phone falling off your lap. Another episode of Phineas and Ferb had started, the corny opening tune filling the space between the two of you. âAt least now I know what you think of me,â you mutter over the guitar riff.
âOh my god,â Jungkook blurts, sitting up wildly. âOf course Iâm gonna think of you as a stupid little kid, look at you,â he seethes, gesturing at the phone beside you. You flinch. âAll you do is watch kids shows and whine whenever I wanna watch anything normal adults watch. You complain every single day about the most normal things, like your job? Why should I fucking care that youâre working a dead-end office job in a field you didnât even study forâ thatâs not my problem, __!â he snaps, eyes narrowed into little slits. âI just won an award last night,â he says suddenly, voice back to its regular volume. âIâm at the height of my career and Iâm only going up, but I canât even enjoy that because I have to come home and cater to you,â he finishes, a loud scoff punctuating the final word.
You had never imagined Jungkook finally bragging about himself would be at your expense.
A beat of silence passes, the angry glint in his eyes quickly fading away the longer you donât say anything. You sniff once, turning your head idly to the side where Phineas and Ferb is still blaring loudly from your phone speaker. Picking up the device, you throw it across the room where it hits his closet door with a terrifying bang the breaks the silence.
The sound snaps Jungkook out of whatever shock heâd been in. âBabyâŠâ he says slowly, carefully, like youâre a caged animal thatâs just escaped the zoo.
âIâm going home,â you say, also a little too calmly. You saunter over towards his closet where your shattered phone screen glares up at you as you yank a pair of sweats off a hanger. Jungkook is still frozen on the edge of the bed, watching you with wide eyes as you move about the room.
Itâs when youâre in the hallway leading downstairs that Jungkook finally snaps out of his daze, scampering behind you as you descend the stairs. âBaby,â he rushes out, loudly bounding down after you, â___, wait,â he gasps, catching you by the kitchen counter collecting your keys. âI-I didn't mean that,â he rushes out, eyes wide and frantic as they flicker over your expression. âI donât think thatâI donât, baby, please, just⊠let me explain, please.â
âJungkook, let go of me,â you respond, shaking your wrist in an attempt to release yourself. Heâs not even holding you tightlyâ he never wouldâbut the sound of your heart pounding in your ears makes your movements jerky and erratic. âI wanna go home.â
âNo,â he chokes, cornering you against the counter. âNo, baby, please just listen to me, I-Iââ
âYou what, Jungkook?â you snap, placing a hand on his chest and forcefully pushing him away. He lets you, stepping back with a wobbly bottom lip. âYou need to tell me how youâre too good for me? How much I hold you down because I wasnât lucky enough to get a job like yours straight out of college?â He says nothing, swallowing roughly as you jab a finger into his chest. âWell let me tell you something,â you snarl, chest heaving, âI may be childish and a huge complainer, but Iâm not stupid enough to let someone walk all over me like this.â
With that, you make your great escape. Truthfully, you donât want him to see the tears in your eyes as you yank his door open, stomping down his steps and in the direction of the nearest bus stop. The door opens right after you tug it shut, painting your shadow across the sidewalk. Thereâs the scrambled sound of house slippers against the concrete that follows you down. âGo the fuck back inside,â you snap without missing a beat.
Sensing your obvious anger, he pauses before he can reach you. âText me when you get home?â he calls out quietly.
âNo,â you respond.
You would never admit to anyone that you spend the entire night eating a tub of mint chocolate ice cream. Itâs disgusting and makes you gag, but itâs the only one you have in your apartment. And of course, it was brought over by none other than Jeon Jungkook himself a few days ago. Even when youâre trying to comfort yourself over how mean he was, on your anniversary night no less, youâre plagued by thoughts of him everywhere.
As much as you want to brush his words off, put on that cool girl exterior youâve maintained since high school, thereâs something different about this situation. You guess itâs impossible to brush off such hateful words when they come from someone you love and adore so much.
Were you too childish? You had always believed that side of you was what made your relationship with Jungkook so perfect. The two of you meshed well because of your differences, like yin and yang. So how had he been able to so easily deconstruct every inch of that balance in a matter of a few seconds? Was this perfect reality all in your head this whole time?
You want to tell yourself it was just a heat of the moment outburst from Jungkook, give him the benefit of the doubt because heâs never snapped at you like this before. Of course youâve fought a couple of times in the past year, but neither of you had ever stooped as low as you did yesterday. Furthermore, the insecure part of your brain says he obviously felt this somewhere in his heart to bring it up at all. What he had said to you wasnât something someone could make up on the spot.
You donât text him when you get home, partly to spite him, but mainly because you had left your phone at his place anyway. You know he tried calling you last night because the call log is synced up to your laptop. He called on and off for about thirty minutes before he probably found your phone in his room. Whatever, he can mope in his regret for all you care
âis what you wanna say, but the longer he goes without showing himself to you the more your insecurities and hurt fester. Was this it? Was this the end of what was probably the best year of your life? Itâs too painful to think about, to even consider the possibility that Jungkook might have gained a new insight last night and decided, hey, maybe this is for the best after all.
You drown yourself in an ungodly amount of sugar for breakfast, your laptop blaring yet another episode of Phineas and Ferb on the dining table. Muscle memory has you making Jungkookâs favorite pancakes before you can stop yourself, and by the time you do realize, youâve resigned yourself to the blueberry smell anyway.
Thereâs a pounding on your door a little past noon, so hard and rough, that you almost think itâs the police finally coming to catch you for all your years of illegally pirating Phineas and Ferb.
Itâs not.
Itâs just a really drunk boyfriend wailing for your forgiveness at the door. You open the door with a fright, jumping back when he slumps forward and almost crashes face-first into the floor. âYou didnât call,â Jungkook cries, leaning a little too much of his weight onto you when you reach out to steady him.
The thundering of your heart slows upon registering itâs him. âKook?â you frown, nose pinched at the ungodly stench of alcohol wafting off his clothes. âHave you been drinking?â you ask even though the answer is staring you right in the face (and in the nose).
He groans, staggering deeper into your arms. You blindly push the door shut behind him, resigning yourself to this new situation while your pancakes grow cold in the other room. âBaaaby,â he slurs, letting you guide him into the living space. Heâs unceremoniously dumped onto the couch, half-opened eyes gazing up at you. âLet me,â a hiccup, âexplain.â
You wonât lie. Thereâs a very obvious sense of discomfort sitting in your chest, torn between two paths that you donât wish to choose between. His skin is warm and flushed like heâs just walked all the way here in this morning sun. You step over to the window that faces down onto the street below. Thereâs no sign of his car; you would have killed him if he ever tried to drive in this state.
âDid you walk here?â you ask instead, deciding thereâs no need for one singular path, not when you can walk straight down the middle, both cleaning him and grilling him at the same time.
Jungkookâs response is delayed, head lolling from side to side as you help him out of his sweater. His skin is sweaty beneath, scorching to the touch. âUh-huh,â he groans. Jesus, you sort of assumed but him confirming it really set things into perspective.
By no means did you and Jungkook live on opposite ends of the earth. On a good day, a drive from your place to his took about ten minutes. But walking? Easily an hour. Had he walked all the way from his place, drunk on top of that?
You brush his hair away from his face, his eyes fluttering shut at your touch. His lips are pouty yet chapped, dehydrated from the sun and the alcohol he reeks of. âSit up for me,â you instruct, scampering off to your room for chapstick and water.
âAnything for you,â Jungkook wheezes, throat probably dryer than a desert. When you return, heâs two seconds from face planting into the coffee table and breaking that pretty face of his. You catch him with a hand on his shoulder, keeping him balanced. âTell me what to do,â he chokes out, voice hoarse.
âJust need you to drink some water,â you say, pressing a cup against his lips. He drinks it, but a drop still dribbles down his chin.
âNo,â he groans, catching your wrist in his hand when you reach up to apply some chapstick on him. âTell me what to do,â he stresses, âto fix this. Fix us.â
His words make you pause, the tube of chapstick hovering over his plush lips. âYou donât have to do anything,â you respond quietly, trying to finish the application so you can pull away.
Jungkook doesnât let you go. You try to look away, but thereâs something about him that looks off. Maybe itâs the raw skin under his eyes, red and swollen. Or the sad droop to those same eyes that hold you captive. Or maybe itâs the subtle tremble in his hands, the fingers that hold tightly to your wrist, not to keep you there but to ground himself. âI donât wanna lose you,â he rasps out, shakily bringing your hand to his mouth, where he presses one airy kiss to your knuckles. âTell me ho-how to fix this and Iâll do it,â he pleads, a vulnerable look in his eyes.
Unable to withstand the sheer amount of agony on his expression, you look away. â___, please,â he chokes out, stumbling off the couch in his drunk and desperate haze until heâs kneeling in front of you. âI canât⊠I canât,â he sniffles, tears clouding those pretty eyes youâve come to love so much. âI donât know who I am without you.â
You clench your jaw. âYouâre Jeon Jungkook,â you murmur, slipping your hand out of his hold to run through his hair. Itâs knotted and a little too greasy, two things Jungkook would usually never allow. âThis yearâs Platinum Mobile Standard of Excellence Award recipient,â you remind him, trailing your thumb across his cheekbone when he turns to look up at you with those big Bambi eyes. âSweet and shy, but you love being rowdy with your friends. You love movies and TV and organizing your shirts according to fabric type. You work harder than anyone I know and never complain. You date me, even though Iâm a huge child,â you smile sadly.
âNo!â he jumps, turning that frantic stare back into you. âY-Youâre notâ itâs not,â he stammers, words still slurring together. âIâm a liar,â he cries, resting his forehead on your knees. His shoulders shake. âI donât deserve you,â he weeps quietly. You place a hand on his shoulder. âY-Y-You make my life so much better, ___, so colorful and fun. I-I wish I knew you in high school,â he admits, âmaybe I wouldnât have been so emotionally constipated now.â
âYouâre not,â you reassure him softly.
He disagrees. âYou bring out the best,â he hiccups, âthe best in me.â Your heart skips in your chest. âI-I love you, you know that?â
You sputter, eyes wide at his sudden confession. âI⊠love you so much, yâknow? I think about you ev-every night, ___,â he rambles, eyes dreamily gazing off into some miscellaneous spot on the wall behind you. âI canât get you out of my head. Like you're a song, o-on repeat but itâs not annoying because itâs my favorite song, and I could listen to it for the rest of my life, yâknow? My favorite song, I know all the words b-because itâs all I think about! I love... My love⊠I love you so much.â
âKook,â you rush out, cheeks flaming as you try to pull him away from where heâs slumped over your legs. His passionate speech has you abuzz, body tingling everywhere until you feel overwhelmed, head spinning like youâre on a rollercoaster. âLetâs get you to bed.â
He nods sleepily, seemingly coming down from whatever alcohol induced rampage has allowed him to walk for an hour straight in this searing heat just to confess to you. âY-You donât have to say it back,â he continues to stutter as you guide him through the living room on wobbly legs. âI just-I justâ can I?â he babbles. âCan I love you, ___?â
You pass through the kitchen space, where whatever you were watching on Disney+ is blaring loudly. It distracts Jungkook for about two seconds before his attention returns to you. When you donât answer, he presses on. âIs that okay?â he asks, whirling around to face you, catching your shoulders in his hands. He towers over you by the entrance to your bedroom, dark curls tickling your forehead. His eyes are dark and glazed over, both in tears and an emotion so raw and unfiltered it squeezes around your chest until you canât breathe. âIs it okay for me to love you?â he murmurs softly, knocking his nose against yours.
Your cheeks blaze. âYes, th-thatâs fine, Kook,â you blubber, placing a hand over his chest, where his heart is also hammering away. âJust need you to go rest now, okay?â
He nods sleepily, nudging your nose with his one last time, like a soft almost-kiss, before letting you push him into the room. âYes, yes,â he breathes, his body finally crashing from his adrenaline spike. He flops down onto the bed unceremoniously, dark waves fanning across your pillows. You try to wiggle him out of his shirt, but it only gets about halfway up his chest before he blindly reaches for the covers. His legs stick out awkwardly, clad in the sweatpants youâve come to associate with him.
When heâs all swaddled up in your blanket he finally goes limp, tiny snores leaving his lips as he dozes away from reality. You sigh, pressing a palm to his forehead. Heâs still warm and clammy, but at this point, thereâs nothing you can do but wait for him to sober up.
With a final kiss to his forehead, you leave the room, closing the door behind you before sliding against the wooden surface. Thereâs a trapped bird in your chest, wildly flapping its wings in an effort to get out, and itâs all stupid Jungkookâs fault in the next room. Stupid Jungkook who demolished and remodeled your heart all in less than twenty-four hours. It doesnât calm down, even when you rush off into the kitchen for a glass of water, or when you try to immerse yourself in some other show on Disney+. It stays beating against your ribs and your chest until youâre forcing yourself to sit down on the couch and process.
He wakes up a little before dinner. You hear him from the living room, where youâre flicking through the options on Disney+ for the nth time that day. Youâve seen the first fifteen minutes of about twenty different series and movies by now, always growing antsy and abandoning them early on. The only reason you know heâs awake is because the shower turns on for a few minutes, and then his bare feet are heard padding across the hallway back into your room.
By the time he resurfaces in the living room, youâve resigned yourself to just more Phineas and Ferb, nonchalantly watching the silly cartoon. (Except youâre anything but nonchalant, and your heartbeat rings in your ears.)
Jungkook hovers by the door, clad in a pair of shorts heâs left here before, and a t-shirt you stole from him. âHey,â he says quietly, lingering by the doorframe. You nod back in response. âCan I watch with you?â Again, another nod. Â
Slinking over to the couch, heâs rather careful as he sits down, leaving a few inches of space between the two of you. You donât even think he can see the screen of your laptop until he murmurs, âheâs my favorite character,â when Perry the Platypus appears on the screen.
You hum. âThought you didnât like these kids shows?â you ask. You donât mean it to sound as petty and backhanded as it comes out, but thatâs really no one's fault but his own.
Jungkookâs breathing tightens beside you. âNo,â he admits, âI donât. Only watch them because I know you like them.â You contemplate pausing the episode and engaging in a real conversation with him, but at this point, youâre very tired from the events of the last day. Jungkook doesnât press either, just shuffles more comfortably beside you.
You get about five minutes in, quiet chuckles shared between the two of you, before he strikes. âIâm sorry about yesterday,â he says, so hushed you almost donât hear it. His hand is resting in the space between you, pinky brushing against yours. âAbout⊠being late. And the presents.â
You inspire slowly. âThat wasn't even the problem, silly,â you brush off. From your peripheral, you see Jungkookâs slow nod. âI didnât want any presents,â you mention, âI just wanted you.â You look away from the screen immediately after, pretending like the spot on the ceiling is actually really interesting.
The two of you fall into silence, the animated characters on your screen rapidly chattering away. âOh,â Jungkook says after a moment.
You roll your eyes. Theyâre moist but you donât want him to see. âYeah, oh,â you parrot back softly, relaxing into the couch again. âDid you eat the food I left out?â
Jungkook shuffles beside you, the soft lull of the speakers soon being cut as he reaches over to pause Phineas and Ferb. A couple of seconds pass and then heâs leaning into you, head resting on your shoulder. âIâm sorry,â he apologizes again, placing a palm over the hand he had been teasing for the past few minutes. âI thought I knew what I was doing but I was wrong.â
His voice is so soft and sincere, it makes your chest ache. You try to burrow your face against your opposite shoulder, try to hide the stray tear that escapes out of the corner of your eye. âItâs fine,â you brush off, voice choked off and hoarse.
Jungkook leans up, pecks your cheek so tenderly it makes you go mushy. âNo, itâs not fine. I acted like a know-it-all and said something way out of line,â he murmurs, raising his head to look at you. His hand feels warm over yours. Itâs the touch you craved all day and yesterday, the warm feel of his body against yours. Youâre embarrassed at how easily you melt into it. âYouâre the best thing that has happened to me in a long time,â he tells you, holding your hand close to his chest. âI had no right to say those things to you.â
You sniffle, resting your head against his shoulder now. His heart beats loud enough for you to hear. âWas it true?â you mumble. âDo you really think of me like that?â
He shakes his head, his soft breaths fanning across your forehead. âNo, never,â he answers. âI think youâre incredible. My brain was just trying to justify my dumb anger.â
You nod, even if you donât believe it just yet. But that was a conversation for later, you suppose, sometime in the future when you arenât on the verge of tears and threatening to crumble apart at the simplest word that leaves his mouth.
âI should have come home like you wanted, thought about my words before saying them,â he says, snuggling closer to you. âIâm sorry.â
âStop,â you sniffle, covering your face with your free hand as he presses a kiss to the vein that runs over the back of the hand heâs holding captive. âNow it just sounds like I'm just being inconsiderate of your gifts and a crybaby.â
Jungkook kisses your temple softly, gently. âDonât think about the gifts,â he says. âJust tell me what you wanted to do, doll.â
His voice calms you, has you like putty in his arms. âWatch movies,â you mumble, toying with a thread on your couch cushion. âBe with you.â
He hums. âThen weâll do that,â he says, reaching for your laptop again. The screen nearly blinds you when it flickers back to life before you, Jungkookâs low breaths against your ear making it near impossible for you to process the titles on the screen. âYou liked Disney+?â
Belatedly, you nod. âI like the animated movies,â you admit quietly, the anxieties of before slowly melting away, even more so when he slides his arm around you, pulling you close against his chest.
Unlike other times where heâll critique the hell out of such childish films, Jungkook says nothing as he starts up the Zootopia movie instead, the same one you had wanted to show him before, right from the beginning. âThat bunny looks like you,â you murmur when Judy Hopps first appears on the screen.
Jungkook snorts. âYou say that about every cartoon bunny.â
You turn your head to glance at him over your shoulder. He meets your gaze with a small smile you return. âItâs because youâre so cute,â you say softly, lips twisting playfully when his cheeks grow scarlet.
He knocks his forehead against yours, eyes fluttering shut. âNot cute, just lucky,â he chuckles. âLucky enough to have you.â Your heart turns over in your chest, threatening to burst out of your rib cage at his words. You try to turn in his arms. Before you can say the words that have been sitting on the tip of your tongue for months now, heâs beating you to it once again. âI love you,â he confesses in a hushed whisper, no alcoholic influence.Â
Something inside of you blossoms, eyes wide as he chastely kisses you. He pulls away without you ever reacting, too caught up in surprise to kiss him back properly. He stays close, curls tickling your forehead as he leans over you. âYou donât have to say it back, I just wanted you to know. I love you,â he says again, long lashes blinking down at you. âSo much. It makes me feel like a stupid teenager again, going to the mall to buy a gift for my crush.â He laughs sheepishly, reaching down to tangle your fingers together. âIs that okay?â he asks quietly, pressing a kiss to your knuckles.
It mirrors the confession heâd given you that morning, those slurred words and teary eyes. It had been difficult to pinpoint the legitimacy of it before, the meaning scrambled by his hazy mind. But with him staring at you like this now, like you single-handedly plucked the stars from the sky to put them in those sparkly eyes of his, it makes something inside you ache.
Still, you choke on your own spit. âI-Is it okay for you to love me?â you sputter incredulously, realizing the oddity of the same question heâd thrown at you earlier. But now, youâre both sober and you can really tear apart that sentence. Jungkook nods a little too seriously for your liking. âAre you crazy?â He blinks in confusion, brows pulling together as you slowly but surely lose the last bits of your sanity. âYouâre an idiot, Jeon Jungkook,â you huff, âa stupidly handsome, rich, walking dream, idiot who goes out with stupid girls like me.â
âNot stupid,â he murmurs, closing in on you again as he finally understands the truth behind your masked insults. He smells minty and like his favorite body wash of yours.
âNo,â you deny. âYouâre actually, like, insane. You have a bachelor pad, make enough money to sustain an entire litter of kittens, look and talk like every teenage girlâs dream boyfriendâ but you mess it all up by dating evil, conniving hoes like me who lose their shit over Disney cartoons.â He says nothing, watching you with an amused grin as you talk over yourself, basically regurgitating his statement from yesterday except it kinda seems plausible now that youâre over it. âItâs stupid. No, youâre stupid. Noâ Iâm stupid.â
Jungkook chuckles, kissing the corner of your mouth gently. âDone?â he says, a dimple appearing on his cheek. You could kiss it away, but you need him to know the amount of stupidity in this room was astronomically high. âYouâre not stupid, baby,â he says. You level him with a look. âWell. You have your moments.â
âMoments?â you repeat, standing up in a hurry that has him flopping down beside you. Your laptop is lost somewhere on the cushions, the voices faded as they grow farther away. âI am so stupid. I called Namjoon a whore for taking you out for lunch!â you cry. âI am the stupidest person in the world.â
Jungkook cackles, standing up beside you. âYes, yes, youâre my stupid girl,â he teases, tapping the pout on your lips playfully. âSo stupid she slanders herself instead of just telling me she loves me too.â He bumps your noses together, dark eyes staring at you almost daringly after his claim.
You fold soon enough. âI love you,â you mumble, âeven if Iâm too stupid to say it.â
He rewards your confession with a kiss, pulling you into his arms soon after. He sighs, almost wistfully. âWhatever shall I do with my very stupid girl?â
After exactly three minutes of feeling safe and loved in his arms, he abandons the living room in favor of leading you back to your room, where he pushes you down against your mattress. You cling to him, leaving him positioned over you at an angle. His chest presses against yours, arm curled around the back of your head. âGotta get up, baby,â he laughs.
You shake your head, caging him in your arms. âNuh-uh,â you murmur, legs wiggling when he places a hand on your hip.
Jungkook chuckles, pressing a kiss against the side of your ear. âYour movie is still playing in the other room,â he reminds you, thumb drawing soothing circles on your hip. You donât release him, his mindless touch only encouraging you to keep him close. âBabe?â
You say nothing, relishing in the comfort of Jungkookâs presence. His hair smells good and feels even softer against the side of your face. The cotton shirt he found is crumpled beneath your fists, dark blue pattern wrinkling. Finally coming to terms with his new home, Jungkook eventually relaxes into your hold with a sigh.
âAlright,â he hums, patting your hip as he repositions himself more comfortably. âI get it. My pretty girl mustâve missed me, huh?â You nod, soaking in every detail about him in this moment. Jungkook shifts, the hand on your hip suddenly falling over your thigh instead. âOr should I say my stupid girl?â he purrs, hand slipping between your thighs. âMy stupid, little girl?â
A gasp catches in your throat when he runs his fingers over the front of your panties. Your legs kick out wildly at the sudden touch, toes curling at the hands you dreamt about all day and night. âOh,â you pant, each brush of his fingers feeling better than the last.
âWhat?â he says, mouthing against the side of your neck. His tongue feels warm, but the trails of saliva he leaves have you shivering. âToo dumb to speak?â he scoffs, biting down against a particular spot on your neck. You whimper, unsure if itâs because of his hands or his mouth.
âN-No,â you try to sneer back, fingernails digging into his skin through his shirt. His hands are getting braver now, the pad of his pointer finger dancing over your engorged clit. The sheer material of your panties certainly doesnât help, each touch feeling like itâs being magnified three times over. And if it felt this good with underwear, you canât even begin to imagine how itâd feel without.
You donât have to ponder for long, because soon after Jungkook is slipping his hand beneath your waistband, touching your sensitive pussy head-on. âKook.â
He uses your momentary vulnerability to ease himself from your hold, finally recoiling enough to smother your mouth with his. You moan in surprise, thighs quivering as he gets to work circling your hardened bud sans your panties. Jungkook isnât the least bit kind as he kisses you ruthlessly, likes heâs trying to compensate for something with his movements. When he finally pulls away itâs with an obnoxious pop and cherry red lips. He huffs, glancing down to see where heâs got his fingers pleasuring you.
Your thighs are squirming back and forth, closing around his hand every few seconds. Jungkook snorts. âHuh, look at that,â he mutters, trailing down until his fingers are gliding over your quickly sopping folds. âStupid girl is good for something.â
Your cheeks burn. âKook, Iâm notââ
Jungkook levels you with an unimpressed glare. âNot what? Not stupid? But I couldâve sworn you just spent the last few minutes saying you were,â he drones meanly, landing one light slap against your cunt that makes your hips buck.
You bite down a whimper. âI was justâŠâ you trail off, eyes rolling back when he teases one finger against your opening.
âKidding?â he supplies. âWell, I wasnât.â Your heart stutters in your chest, eyes growing wide as he finally pushes himself off of you, propping himself up with an elbow beside your head. His gaze is dark and unrecognizable. âI think youâre so fucking stupid, doll,â he sneers. âAnd what are you gonna do about it?â
You should have seen this moment coming, the manifestation of that shiny side of the coin finally reaching its full potential.
While Jungkook wasnât exactly shy about his interests, he certainly wasnât tripping over himself to tell you every new kinky thing he wanted to try. You sort of guessed he had some interest in this sort of play a few weeks ago when you watched the Barbie movie at his place. A lot of that night had branded itself into your three am wet dreams, but there was one particular moment that stood out to you. That was you, on your knees, with him condescendingly patting your head. Or just last week, you vaguely remember the term slipping through his lips as he pleasured you with The Bullet Bestie.
The thing about Jungkook was that, until last night, he would have never admitted, or so much as even thought, that he was better than you. That was fine because you would say it enough for the both of you anyway. Did you think Jungkook was amazing, an absolute diamond among these measly rocks? Absolutely. (Were you slightly biased because you were his girlfriend? Skip.) However, you also had this insane evil villain complex that made you want to brag about everything you possibly could, especially if that meant bragging about your boyfriend.
Realistically speaking, he was better than you, that much you could look past yesterdayâs anger to admit, and not even in a stuck-up, conceited way; he had a really good job, an architecturally amazing house, and a hot girlfriend. Meanwhile, you had a mediocre job, an okay apartment, and an insanely sexy Calvin Klein boyfriend, half of which he had pointed out yesterday. Regardless of how powerful that third factor was, he still outnumbered you three to one.
Sue you, Jungkook was amazing. Anyone could see that! Except, maybe, himself.
And if the only time Jungkook would openly brag about his greatness or establish how much better than you he was, was in a post-fight, sex-induced setting, then you were more than happy to be his punching bag. So long as it was on your terms, and not as a result of his weirdly bottled up feelings.
(Yeah, you would have a long talk about that tomorrow.)
But for now, you pout up at him, clamping your thighs shut purposefully. âYouâre stupid too,â you defend, âstupid and mean.â
Something in his expression changes. Suddenly, heâs moving at superhuman speed as he snatches his hand out from where you had previously trapped him between your legs, yanking you up by the front of your shirt. âMean?â he mocks. âIsnât that what you always wanted?â You shiver, fingers wrapping around the wrist that holds your sweater. âWanted me to be mean and push you around like a little rag doll?â
Jungkook looks at you for another two seconds, before heâs slowly pulling away from you, leaning back on his knees. His tongue is pressing against the inside of his cheek, jaw tightening from the movement. âBaby,â he says so quietly it instills a prickle of fear in you, tainted with delicious excitement.
âYeah?â you whisper, sitting up tentatively as you watch him, He was a bit frightening, like a wild animal about to devour you whole.
Jungkook rolls his neck, the joints in his spine cracking as he begins tugging off his shirt. You salivate at the sight, too focused on the sinewy muscles of his body to catch the dark gaze he levels your way. He throws it off to the side, his sleeve of tattoos that wraps around his bicep and begins to crawl down his chest wonderfully unobstructed now. âEyes up here,â he says and you quickly meet his gaze. He leans forward, muscled arms coming to cage you against the headboard. âStupid little sluts donât have the room to make such comments,â he rasps out, unamused expression adorning his normally soft features. âDonât you think so?â
âI-I donât know,â you stammer, leaning away as he comes closer and closer, eventually just turning your head to the side to avoid that emotionless look. Itâs the wrong move, and Jungkook lets you know as much by forcefully digging his fingers into your cheeks and turning your face back around to meet his gaze.
A hand grabs beneath your knee, tugging harshly until youâre flopping down onto your back with a squeal. You settle with his knee pressed hotly against your core. Jungkook stays towering over you. âDumb little girls who make me watch cartoons,â he spits, tracing a hand over your chest, molding your breasts beneath his hands roughly enough to make you gasp. âAnd watch little animal movies on Disney+. Arenât they just so stupid?â
âSo stupid,â you concede, subtly shifting your hips for some desperately needed friction. Jungkook snorts, finally granting you your wish with one rough slide of his thigh against your core.
âI agree,â he says, and surprises you with a hand around your throat as he leans in to properly grind his thigh into you. âAll theyâre good for is being dumb little sluts with good pussy,â he murmurs darkly, thumb pressing into the side of your neck forcefully. âSometimes, they donât even do anything,â Jungkook continues, his other hand on your hip hauling you higher up his thigh. You mewl, soaked panties rubbing roughly against your folds. You miss the soft swirl of his thumb, the gentle prod of his fingers. Even so, you canât deny this change in Jungkook is doing something to you, riling up a part of you that you hadnât known existed. Maybe itâs the horniness from yesterday that was left unfulfilled, the one year anniversary sex that was put on pause. âJust lay there and take it, too fucked out and dumb to say anything.â
His fingers loosen for the briefest of seconds and you gasp for breath. âThatâs terrible,â you whimper, rolling your hips up into his thigh, so close to his swollen cock.
Jungkook chuckles without an ounce of humor, pressing your foreheads together as he helps grind you to completion. âIsnât it? I think that stupid little girl is cute though.â
âIâm sorry,â you blurt, vision spotting as he tightens his hand back around your throat. âIâm sorry, Iâm sorry,â you moan, stomach tight from all the stimulation.
Jungkook hums, slowing you down with a tight grip on your waist. âHm, what are you sorry for?â he croons, pink lips pulling into an evil smile. âYou said you werenât that stupid girl, __.â
You shake your head, trying to roll your hips up again but heâs holding you too tightly now, rendering you immobile beneath him. âI am,â you choke out shamefully, grabbing at the hand on your hip in a feeble attempt to remove it. âI am a stupid little girl.â
Jungkook smirks, leaning down to slot his mouth over yours. âThatâs right,â he murmurs, ânothing but a dumb little slut.â
You shiver, opening your mouth when he slides his tongue against your bottom lip. Heâs not the slightest bit nice, and more messy than usual. He pulls away with a bite to your lower lip, meeting your trembling gaze with that same unrecognizable glint in his eyes. âCome on, dummy, keep up,â he snarks before devouring you again. You try to, you really do, but heâs moving like an animal today, despite his slow and drunken movements from that morning. So you end up with his saliva dripping down your throat, clinging to the corners of your lips as he begins slowly grinding you against his thigh again. He flashes you a wicked smile, pearly teeth on display for you as he glances down at your messy appearance.
âAre you gonna touch me?â you ask, lower lip trembling at the thought after your desperate rutting. Jungkook purses his lips together in thought.
âMmm,â he hums. âDonât know yet.â
You whine. âJungkook, please,â you whimper, wrapping your legs around his waist. âI need you.â
Jungkook chuckles, running his hand up your waist and taking your shirt with him. He slips his fingers beneath your bra, pushing the wire over your chest as he mouths at your neck. âCute,â he says. âCanât do it yourself?â
You tremble, chest arching into him as he rolls your nipple between his fingers. âI-I can,â you gasp. âJust feels better with you.â
Jungkook follows your statement with a nip against your skin, tongue soothing over it right after. âWhy? Because I do everything better than you? Even make you cum better than you?â
Your cheeks heat up at his blatant ego rearing its head, hands carding through the hair at the nape of his neck. You say nothing, and that only eggs Jungkook on. âCome onnn,â he teases, finally, finally rolling his hips down onto your core. You squeak, head falling back against the pillows as youâre granted the one thing youâd been chasing. âSay it.â
âSay what?â you ask, voice wobbly as he continues to slowly rut against you, the front of his shorts pressing against the soaked crotch area of your panties. âOh, oh, Jungkook,â you whine.
Suddenly he bites down harshly, teeth digging painfully into your skin. You yelp in surprise, pussy throbbing at the pain that shoots throughout your body. Jungkook pulls away and doesnât bother soothing over it as he leans up to capture your jaw this time. âSay youâre a stupid little slut who canât do anything without me,â he purrs, kisses too soft for the words he says.
Your mind blanks, torn between the humiliating phrase he wants you to say and properly checking him in his place. In the end, itâs with a twisted need to please him that youâre repeating the words back to him. âI-Iâm a stupid slut,â you whimper, fingers digging into his shoulder blades as he continues pushing you right along the edge. The rope pulled tightly in your core is slowly being pulled apart, threads hanging on for dear life. âCanât... can't do anything without...â
âWithout who?â he asks, reaching down and untying the front of his shorts. âCanât do anything without who, baby?â
âWithout you, without you,â you cry, bucking your hips up against his, the combined movements of both your bodies making you shake like a leaf. âAh, K-Kook,â you wail, hips stuttering as your orgasm finally swallows you up. Your panties quickly grow wet and icky from your own arousal that pools between your thighs. Jungkook lets you writhe beneath him as you chase your high, mouth sucking a pretty blossom against your jaw.
You know better than to expect the night to end here, especially after seeing the glint that had been in his eyes as he watched you unravel.
He leans close, letâs his nose brush against yours as you catch your breath. âSo perfect for me,â he groans, slotting his lips against yours. You can barely keep up with him, languidly going along with his hot tongue. âPerfect, perfect girl,â he murmurs, a stark change from the less than friendly adjectives he used just moments before. âTell me you love me?â he says softly.
You nod, mind fuzzy as you wrap your arms around his neck. âLove you,â you exhale, letting your fingers knot in his hair. Your proclamation does something to him, makes him grind the front of his cotton shorts hard against you. For someone that was often rough and brutal with you in bed, he sure was sensitive to the mushiest of things.
âDonât deserve you,â he huffs, hot breath fanning across your skin. He switches gears fairly quickly. âTell me you hate me,â he begs hoarsely, rutting against your soiled panties. âTell me Iâm a piece of shit and you could do better without me,â he pleads, voice too airy to be another one of his usual sex-induced thoughts.
You shake your head, pressing a kiss to his cheek as he rolls his hips. âItâs not true,â you whisper, âI love you more than youâll ever understand.â
Jungkook groans, suddenly winding back and tearing your ruined panties down your legs. You gasp in surprise, letting him haul you about in his blind, self-inflicted rage. âStupid, stupid,â he huffs, though at this point you canât tell who itâs directed at. With your underwear out of the way, he wastes no time plunging his fingers back into your cunt, bypassing the tight ring of muscle around it without any of his usual care. âYou should hate me,â he snarls, lips pressed against your ear.
You moan, back arching at the sudden pleasure that blossoms between your thighs. âI-I donât,â you gasp, toes curling.
Jungkook groans, the sound traveling down your spine and straight into your pussy. âStupid girl,â he huffs, slipping an arm around you to pull you so close until you canât breathe, chests lined up together. His skin is warm to the touch, scorching almost. âFuck,â he groans, curling his fingers inside of you. You whimper and moan, incapable of staying still beneath him as he tortures you with a thumb to your clit. âTell me you hate me,â he seethes again.
Despite the fog thatâs settled over your mind, you still manage a resolute shake of your head. âN-no,â you cry, digging your nails into his back. They run dark red lines over his skin, making him hiss at the sting.
Whatever punishment heâs trying to put himself through is falling through with your refusal to admit such a thing. It aggravates him even more, your adamant stance on loving him so, and heâs retracting his fingers before you can cum again. âPlease,â he chokes, face tucked into your neck. Heâs sloppy with his movements; as he pulls his shorts down and kicks them away, he nearly suffocates you with his weight. âI donât deserve you, ___, please.â
âI love you,â you whimper for lack of explanation. Jungkook leans back, that same madman gaze in his glossy eyes. Heâs looking at you in disbelief almost, pouty lips puckered and swollen. Your hands slip from around him, falling on either side of your head.
Like a cobra he strikes, collecting your wrists in one hand he pins above your head. The sudden movement has him leaning in close, lips brushing over yours. His lashes are coated in a wetness he refuses to acknowledge, looking at you like you drive him insane. âIf you ever try to leave me,â he whispers, jerky breath fanning over your skin, âIâll lose my mind.â
He loves you so much it aches.
âI wonât,â you whimper, feeling your own eyes well up with an emotion that consumes every inch of your being. âIâll never leave you, you stupid, stupid boy.â
A faint smile crosses his features at your words, lips quirking to the side. You relish in it for all of two seconds before heâs ramming his cock into you, your sensitive walls spawning around him. You sob loudly, eyes rolling back into your head. Your legs instinctively hook themselves around his waist, digging into the base of his spine as he rolls his hips into you.
You feel full and complete like he belongs there in this moment and every moment after this. It makes your heart constrict painfully. Jungkookâs soft groans follow your more unraveled noises, the vulgar slapping of skin on skin the underlying melody to it all. âFfffuck,â he spits, greedily swallowing your moans up. You whine, arms bucking in an effort to hold him close. But heâs determined in his act of restraining you, long fingers tightening around your wrists until they hurt. âI warned you, didnât I?â he huffs, snapping his hips into you.
Your walls clench around his hard cock, the drag as he exits sending shivers throughout your body. Jungkookâs body towers over you, glistening in sweat as he nails you into your mattress. âRemember what I said?â he asks, voice but a shuddery exhale. You shake your head numbly, overwhelmed by the rough drag across your walls. âAll those months ago, when you first came over,â he adds. The hand on your hip abandons its post to cup you beneath the jaw, palm pressing sinfully against your throat enough to block the tiniest of airflow. âIâll fuck you and keep you forever,â he murmurs, voice deeper than the pits of hell. He licks a fat stripe over your cheek like youâre nothing but a sweet for him to devour. âDo you remember that, pretty girl?â
You nod jerkily, hips arching up into him when he thrusts into you again. Itâs a memory that replays in your mind every so often, your first night with the man you had planned to humiliate over a mere misunderstanding, now your boyfriend of one year. âWant that,â you gasp, tears blurring your vision when he begins picking up the pace. âWanna be y-your pretty girl forever.â
Jungkook groans, kissing the corner of your mouth. His thighs are some magnificent beings, keeping his pace consistent even as he loses himself in his overwhelming need to kiss you. âAlways,â he manages, soft lips pressed against yours. âI wonât ever let you leave.â
A shriek tears itself from your lips as he picks up that harsh piston, releasing your jaw to hold both wrists above your head. It makes his curls dangle in front of his eyes, covering that beautiful dark gaze. It makes his thin little necklace swing back and forth too, though itâs too small to actually touch your face. The rhythmic swing has you hypnotized, just like everything else about Jungkook.
With the length of his hair, youâre left staring at his lips, pulled taut between his pearly white teeth. The word from before sits heavy in your chest, begs to drip from the tip of your tongue. But heâs moving too fast and too hard, scrambling your thoughts until all you can think about is the cock plunging into your heat. His name falls from your mouth like mindless blubber instead, arms thrashing as your second orgasm swallows you up. It sends you crashing, body spasming as the sheer euphoria waves over you slowly and then all at once.
âPerfect,â he grunts, leaning down to slot his mouth against yours, âmy perfect girl.â Your cum makes the sound of his hips erotic, the loud squelching following your panting. Still sensitive from your high, your body unconsciously tightens around him, keeps his cock from fully leaving. It brings a soft whine out of Jungkook, one he tries to muffle against the side of your face.
âInside,â you whimper, even though your body feels like jelly beneath him. âCum inside, Kook, please,â you beg.
It only takes a few more thrusts into your leaking hole for him to finally reach paradise, hips stuttering when that first shot of pleasure hits him. âFuck, fuck,â he growls, wildly snapping his hips into your achy cunt. You moan, feeling just about brainless at the overstimulation. His cum leaves you full, almost makes your belly bulge from it. When heâs done he doesnât bother pulling away, simply slumping into your limp form. His cock, though quickly softening, serves as a plug for the cum threatening to spill out of you.
Thereâs a muted noise coming from the other room, the faint sound of the mail slipping through your letterbox, the quiet chattering of the street outside. And of course, the loud blaring of your laptop playing the Phineas and Ferb theme song. Jungkook registers it at about the same time as you, a soft chuckle leaving his lips.
He pushes off of you soon after, leaning on his palms over you. Heâs got that molten look on his eyes, the heat of a thousand suns burning behind those irises as he looks at you. Like he canât get enough, even though heâs just about taken everything there is to take. âLove you,â he murmurs quietly.
A drop of sweat rolls over his forehead, clinging to the end of his eyebrow. You reach up and brush it away, let your hand trail down his face to cup his cheek. Immediately he leans into the touch, eyes falling half shut. âLove you more,â you respond.
âImpossible,â he scoffs.
Soon after youâre both stumbling out of bed, clothes haphazardly shrugged back on as you drift through the living room. Thereâs a thin, hot pink package sitting at the door, just having slipped through the letterbox; the stark Sexuality Unleashed logo is printed on the visible side, so you have to wonder what Doyeon could have possibly ordered this time that could be so thin. The laptop is awkwardly sandwiched next to a throw pillow, barely open a crack. Jungkook retrieves it, sets it on his lap as you scamper over to the couch.
âMore Phineas and Ferb?â he asks quietly. He hates it, you know he does. And still, he wants to watch it with you.
You nod. âPlease.â
He isnât so concerned with the plot as you, clicking some random episode to start. You snuggle into his side, quietly singing along to the opening. After a moment, Jungkook speaks again. âPhineas and Flirt?â he offers cheekily.
You roll your eyes. âThat mightâve been your worst one yet,â you sigh, trying to drown out his indignant huff by focusing on the screen.
âI donât exactly see you coming up with these,â he points out, obviously feeling wronged.
Without missing a beat you say, âDisney+ and bust.â

Gucciâs Girl [REPOST] {Maurizio Gucci x Reader}
authorâs notes: hellooo! I originally wrote this story as an âx OCâ because thatâs what I was writing at the time, but I decided to change it into an âx Readerâ story since thatâs what more people like to read!
**I used a translation application for the Italian in this story. Apologies if there are any typos and/or incorrect sentences/grammar. Italian sentences/words are in italics throughout the story with translations after the sentences in parenthesis.
**This is MY OWN INTERPRETATION of Maurizio Gucciâs character, as portrayed by Adam Driver in the upcoming film, House Of Gucci.
warnings: smut. fluff. grinding. multiple orgasms. pretty vanilla sex.
(possible) twâs: infidelity (heâs engaged, not married).
SMUT under the CUT!
âTesoroâ means âTreasureâ in Italian (an affectionate nickname).
âY/N, will you stay after for a bit?â
Mr. Gucci walks over to your desk.
âI need to ask you something.â
You nod, smiling up at your boss.
âOf course, Mr. Gucci.â
Inside, you were panicking.Â
Heâs never asked you to stay after work before, except on your first day, which made sense. But this doesnât make senseâŠÂ
He returns the smile.
âExcellent. Just come to my office.â
You continue to work, faxing and typing away until the clock read five.Â
Everyone else begins to pack up and bids you farewell as you make your way up to Mr. Gucciâs office.
The wooden door has never looked more intimidating than it does in this moment, as you raise your knuckles and knock.
âEntra in.â (Come in.)
You take a deep breath before you turn the handle, forcing a smile on your face.
He looks so scary and intimidating when he sits at his desk, a fact that, when you told him, made him laugh.
âAh, yes, Y/N. Come in, sit down.â
The chairs in his office are top-of-the-line, a refreshing change from the less-than luxurious chairs out on the floor.
Mr. Gucci lights a cigarette and takes a drag before standing up and walking around to take a seat in the chair next to you.
When he sees your confused expression, he laughs softly, taking another drag.
âI know you think I look scary sitting back there, and I donât want you to be scared of me.â
Your eyes go wide.
âO-Oh, thatâs not what I meantââ
âI know, tesoro.â
He chuckles, eyes flickering over your face before he speaks again.Â
âSo, the annual House of Gucci Ball is coming up, as you know.â
You nod.
âAnd, I was wondering...would you want to...come with me?â
Your stomach drops.
âW-What?â
The CEO looks incredibly flustered and anxious, a new look for him.
âMy fiancĂ©e isnât feeling well and as the head of the House, I really donât want to go aloneâŠâ
In a bold move, you reach out and gently place your hand over his. He looks up at you, and you smile.
âIâd, uhh, Iâd love to go, sir. It would be my pleasure.â
âGreat.â
The corners of his lips tug up into a genuine smile and his eyes dart away from yours as he takes another drag.
âIâll have the company tailor come in tomorrow and take your measurements for a gown. And youâll come here three hours beforehand in order to have hair and makeup done.â
Youâre still partially in shock as he discusses dresses and makeup and hair.Â
Itâs become clear to you over the past few weeks that he has feelings for you, and you think theyâre the same feelings that you have for him.Â
But obviously, neither of you can act on them, no matter how badly you wish you could. Heâs set to be married in a few months, and thereâs a very strict company policy that forbids relationships between workers and their supervisors.
So, it left this unresolved tension between the two of you, and you literally just agreed to spend an entire night at an event with him.
The reality hits and you feel lightheaded.
Oh my god, Iâm going to the company ball with Maurizio Gucci.
Four Weeks Later
The elevator dings and you step out into the now-vacant office. You see several people standing around a portable salon setup, and they all turn to look at you.
âMiss Y/N?â
One of them asks.
You nod.
âSi.â (Yes.)
They quickly sit you down in the chair and begin applying makeup and doing your hair.
-
Youâre tearing up a little bit as you look at yourself in the mirror. Clad in a long, form-fitting gown and in full hair and makeup, you look and feel like a princess.
The stylist hands you a small accent clutch and almost immediately after, the elevator dings, and Mr. Gucci steps out, clad in a snappy black suit, not unlike what he wears at work everyday.Â
That man is never not in a suit, youâve learned.
His eyes go wide as you step down from the small platform. Your cheeks warm under his intense gaze.
The stylist looks nervous as his eyes roam your figure.Â
She speaks up a moment later, voice meek.
âIl vestito e il trucco soddisfano i suoi standard, signore?â (Does the dress and makeup meet your standards, sir?)
He tears his eyes away from you, and nods at the stylist.
âHa superato le mie aspettative.â (Itâs exceeded my expectations.)
Youâre blushing madly now, unable to meet his eyes as you feel him looking at you again.
Soon, the stylist packs up and leaves just you and Mr. Gucci alone.Â
He clears his throat, breaking the silence.
âYou look...beautiful, absolutely beautiful, tesoro.â
You bite your lip as you look up at him, absolutely starstruck by his handsomeness. He somehow manages to look better and more attractive every time you see him.Â
âYouâre too sweet, sir.â
He takes your hand, kissing your knuckles.Â
âPlease, Iâm Maurizio tonight.â
You nod, trying his name on your tongue.Â
âMaurizio.â
Mr. Gucci smiles as he releases your hand. âWe have a few minutes before the car gets here...would you like some water? Espresso?â
âIâm alright, but thank you.â You say.Â
A few moments of sexually-charged silence lingers between you two.
âThank you for agreeing to join me tonight.â
He says suddenly.
âI always enjoy our time together, Y/N.â
You smile.
âMe too.â
âReally? You do?â
Maurizio blushes slightly.
âItâs just...Iâm an old man, youâre a young woman...â
You chuckle as you reach out to hold his hand.
âYouâre not old, sirâMaurizio. And yes, really, I do enjoy our time together.â
âIâm glad.â
He says, eyes flicking down to your lips as he leans in a little bit.
Wait...what? Is he gonna⊠Fuck, oh god, this canât happen...
Honk!
He flinches at the sound, standing up straight and clearing his throat.
âI guess the car is here.â
You chuckle nervously as he holds out his hand, and you take it, walking alongside him to the elevator.Â
Itâs a short drive to the hotel and when you two arrive, there are swarms of paparazzi, all crowding around the car when the driver pulls to the curb.Â
Maurizio clearly sees your overwhelmed expression and tension, reaching over to squeeze your hand.Â
âDonât worry, tesoro. Just stay by my side and donât answer any of their questions, yes?â
You nod and he gets out, walking around to open your door and help you out of the car. Immediately, when the press sees that youâre not his fiancĂ©e, the cameras flash even more rapidly and voices overlap one another.Â
âSei la nuova fidanzata di Maurizio?â (Are you Maurizioâs new girlfriend?)
âMaurizio, dovâe la tua fidanzata?â (Maurizio, whereâs your fiancĂ©e?)
âStrumento a mano.â (Gold digger.)
âPuttana americana.â (American whore.)
They were all basically on top of you, asking so many questions and saying so many things about you, it was incredibly overwhelming.
Suddenly, Maurizioâs voice boomed through the crowd, and everyone fell silent.
âLasciala in pace!â (Leave her alone!)
His arm wraps tighter around your waist, pressing you even further into his side as he walks you both into the building. The cameras and crowds were almost completely silent, still, and you were just trying to process it all as the two of you walked into the event, you still tucked into his side.
He stopped just inside the door and let you go, taking your hands instead, eyebrows furrowed with worry.Â
âAre you okay, tesoro? They didnât hurt you, did they?â
You shake your head, still trembling a little bit.Â
âN-No, Iâm okay, just a little shaken up.â
âTheyâre vicious and relentless...mi dispiace. I shouldâve warned you about them beforehand, but Iâm relieved that youâre okay.â (Iâm sorry)
âItâs okay, Maurizio, really.â
You smile sadly.
âThank you for helping me.â
He wraps an arm around you again, gently squeezing your hip before rubbing it lightly.Â
âOf course, anything for mi tesoro. Iâm indebted to you for joining me tonight.â
Youâre blushing, eyes darting away from his.Â
âOh no, thatâs not necessary. Itâs an honor to accompany you, and Iâm sorry that my presence caused so much trouble for you, with the press.â
âDonât worry about it.â
He smiles, eyes lingering on you for a moment before guiding you into the massive ballroom.Â
Youâre absolutely stunned by the beauty of it, the chandeliers glittering on the ceiling as they illuminate the entire room.Â
Maurizio seems to notice your staring, and pauses as well, chuckling softly.Â
âItâs very pretty, isnât it?â
You turn to him and nod, smiling.Â
âItâs beautiful.â
Once you get inside and take your seats, Maurizio is immediately flocked with people wanting to speak with him. Some of them give you a judgemental glance or gaze, and you just look away, taking another sip of your wine.Â
This is gonna be a long night.
-
Naturally, Maurizio has been talking to people nonstop all night, which was expected of course, but for some reason, youâd sort of hoped heâd make some time for just the two of you. You genuinely enjoy his company, heâs actually really kind and funny when heâs not in âwork modeâ.Â
Why would he do that for you? Youâre just his replacement date, Y/N, nothing more.
So, you sit back in your chair and casually nibble at the new dinner course that was put on your plates a few minutes ago.Â
A dance song begins to play and suddenly, Maurizio stands up and holds his hand out for you.Â
âWould you like to dance, mi tesoro?â
âAbsolutely.â
You blush, biting your lip as you stand up.
He places his hand on the small of your back as you two walk onto the floor. You wrap your arms around his neck while he places his hands on your waist, holding you close as the two of you begin gently swaying to the slow tune.Â
âItâs nice to step away from the table for a bit.â
He says, chuckling.Â
âI only see these people once a year, so they always want to talk the night away.â
You laugh.Â
âI understand, and Iâm happy that I could provide an excuse for you to get away, even if only for a few minutes.â
âYouâre anything but an excuse, Y/N.â
Maurizio says, blushing a bit.Â
âIâve been wanting to make some time to spend with you, but I havenât gotten the opportunity. Iâm sorry for that, this must be tedious for you.â
You shake your head.Â
âNo, itâs alright, although I do respect your fiancĂ©e much more now that I understand what happens at events like this.â
You jest, and he laughs.
âBut, in all seriousness, Iâm fine. You shouldnât feel any obligation to keep me entertained, I understand my role for tonight.â
His face sinks ever so slightly, but he still smiles nonetheless.Â
âI did hope to spend some time with you, though. Like I said, I enjoy spending time with you.â
The song suddenly ends and a much more upbeat one takes its place.Â
Maurizioâs face seems to light up, and he smiles widely.Â
âAre you ready?â
âReady for what?â
Youâre suddenly lifted up and spun around. You laugh the entire time and he continues spinning you.Â
The whole world seems to fade and suddenly, itâs just you two on the dancefloor.Â
Your eyes are glued on one another as he sets you back down, and you donât think youâve ever seen him smile so genuinely. You briefly wonder how many of these moments he gets to have with his job.
Youâre still laughing as he takes your hand and tries to twirl you around. Heâs laughing along with you as you start to twirl, but you forgot how long your dress is, and you start to fall backwards.
A strong arm reaches down and scoops you up before you can hit the floor, and suddenly, youâre centimeters away from his face, his breath tickling your skin.Â
Heâs still smiling as he slowly stands back up with you in his arms.Â
âBe careful, tesoro. Weâre not taking any trips to the emergency room tonight, okay?â
You smile, unable to bring yourself to take your eyes off of him as youâre placed back onto your feet, his arm still around you, holding you close.Â
You allow yourself, for the first time since your internship began, to take in all of his features. You let your eyes drink in his beauty and it feels like time has stopped. Heâs even more handsome up-close, his pale skin a stark contrast to his dark eyes and the freckles sprinkled across his features.Â
Before you know it, he leans forward and rests his forehead on yours, his lips so close now.
âVoglio davvero baciarti, tesoro.â (I really want to kiss you right now, treasure.)
He whispers.
His voice is so deep, yet soft and full of yearning. It sends a chill down your spine.
âNon ti fermero, bello.â (Iâm not going to stop you, handsome.)
âBene.â (Good.)
He leans forward the rest of the way and your lips connect in a tender embrace.Â
You close your eyes and let your hand reach up to cradle the side of his face.Â
He soon pulls away, a face-splitting grin on his face.Â
Youâre wearing a similar expression.
âMi chiedevo quando lâavresti finalmente fatto.â (I was wondering when you were finally going to do that.)
You giggle, nuzzling your nose against his slightly.
Maurizio laughs softly.
âMi chiedevo quando avrei dovuto farlo anchâio.â (I was wondering when I was going to do it, as well.)
The moment is quickly ruined when you realize exactly where you are, and youâre afraid to know how many people saw that. You quickly stand up straight and so does he, both of you taking a small step away from each other as you straighten yourselves out.Â
When you turn back towards the table, all of the people stare right at you, and you feel your face get hot. You look up at Maurizio when he comes up beside you.
âI think Iâll just catch a cab back to the houseâŠâ
You say, looking down.
He looks over at the table, seeing his work colleagues giving you judgemental glares. His finger gently lifts your chin until youâre looking up at him again.
âLet me take you back, tesoro. Itâs the least I can do, and we can talk about...everything.â
You nod.Â
âIâm really sorry about thisâŠâ
Maurizio shakes his head.Â
âNo, tesoro, itâs my fault. I shouldnât have done that in such a public space.â
Your cheeks get warmer.Â
âAre you saying that you still wouldâve done it?â
His cheeks go pink as he looks away.Â
âYes, I still wouldâve kissed you, Y/N.â
Is this real?
He clears his throat, placing a hand on the small of your back.
âWhy donât you go up to the front while I retrieve our stuff from the table? Iâll make sure that no one says anything or thinks poorly of you.â
âThank you.â
You say, smiling.Â
âIâll get them to call us a cab.â
Heâs at the table for about five minutes while you wait by the door, anxious for whatâs to come.Â
âSorry, mi tesoro, they tried to tell me that I shouldnât leave early. But, I insisted on seeing you safely back to your house.â
âIf you need to stayâŠâ
You begin, but are quickly stopped.
âNo, Iâm going with you.â
Youâre so flattered that he would leave the biggest company party of the year just for you. You.
The cab arrives shortly after and you two walk out into the warm Italian night air, hopping into the car. His hand rests gently on your thigh as the car pulls away from the curb.Â
He sighs.
âIâm sorry that I got you involved in this. My life is...complicated, especially as someone constantly under the public eye.â
You donât even want to ask this next question, but you have to.
âMaurizio, are you still engaged?â
His head turns away to look out the window.
âIâm not sure.â
Your eyebrows furrow. âWhat do you mean, you arenât sure? Itâs a yes or no question.â
âPatrizia left me last night and she hasnât come back.â
He says, choking up a bit.
You gently put your hand over his and he looks over at you.
âIâm really sorry, thatâs...terrible. Did she say why?â
âI told her that I was taking you tonight, and she got upset.â
He sighed.Â
âShe asked me if I had feelings for you, since I talk to her about you almost every dayâŠâ
âYou talk about me?â
Maurizio smiles softly, nodding. âOf course I do. Ever since youâve been here, the office has been...happier. Iâve been happier.â
You take a deep breath, trying not to freak out over what youâre hearing.
âS-So, when she asked you if you had feelings for me...what did you tell her?â
He turns fully to the side, bringing a hand up to cup your face.
âLe ho detto la verita, che mi sono sentito per te sin dal primo giorno in cui sei entrato in ufficio.â (I told her the truth, that Iâve felt for you since the first day you walked into the office.)
You canât help but smile as your face warms again, eyes darting away from his as he continues.
âSono un uomo migliore con te nella mia vita, tesoro.â (Iâm a better man with you in my life, treasure.)
âMaurizio, IâŠâ
You begin, trying to find the right words.
âLo so che non dovrei, ma mi sento anche per te.â (I know I shouldnât, but I feel for you, too.)
He smiles, leaning in closer.
âQual e la ragione dell-amore senza rischi?â (What is the point of love without risk?)
This time, you close the gap between your lips. His other hand comes to hold your face as you kiss, so much passion and want in every movement of your lips together.Â
You move closer, legs draping over his lap.
Just as you make a move to sit on his lap, the cab pulls up to your house, forcing you apart.
Both of you are panting softly, eyes staring deep into each otherâs.
âTesoro, ti prego, faccio lâamore stasera.â (Treasure, please, let me make love to you tonight.)
He leans in and crashes your lips together again, this kiss filled with urgency, with lust, with need.
You nod, biting your lip.
âTi voglio. Ho bisogno di te, per favore.â (I want you. I need you, please.)
Maurizio smiles, paying the driver before quickly hopping out of the car, rushing around to let you out. As soon as you step out, youâre swept up off your feet and carried bridal-style to the front door. You unlock the door and he quickly closes it with his foot.Â
You reach up and begin planting kisses on his neck, enjoying the way he sighs softly.Â
âWhich one is yours?â
He asks, breathily.
âUpstairs, the loft.â
He makes his way up the small flight of stairs.Â
âIs anyone else here?â
You nod. âTheyâre all on the first floor.â
Maurizio hums, gently placing you down on the bed before shedding his suit coat, hanging it on your desk chair, followed by his tie. He takes off his loafers and socks, placing them beneath his other clothes.
Youâd barely gotten your heels off at the point. He laughs when he turns around and sees you struggling to get the shoes off. He quickly pulls it off and tosses it on the floor, holding your foot while he kisses your ankle and calf.Â
He takes a moment to look at you laid back on the bed, once neatly done hair loosened, makeup a bit smudged. His lips pulled up into a smile, teeth playfully scraping at your ankle bone.Â
âYou have too much on, mi tesoro.â
You smile, standing up and turning away from him, silently asking him to unbutton and unzip your dress. He steps up behind you, breaths hot on your neck as his fingers work the buttons.Â
His lips begin planting kisses on your shoulders, soon undoing the zipper, freeing you from the dress. You step out and stand before him in just your underwear, looking away as his eyes rake over your figure.Â
Your cheeks grow hotter when you look down to see the tent growing in his dress pants.
âEtereale.â (Ethereal.)
He mutters, fingers working the buttons of his shirt, gently tossing it with his other clothes before working at the buckle on his belt.Â
âFormidabile.â (Gorgeous.)
The leather belt was soon tossed onto the growing pile of clothing. He unbuttons his pants before stepping forward again, now almost right up against you.Â
His hand wraps around your wrist and brings your palm to the tent in his pants, growling softly when it touches. He leaned forward, lips at your ear.
âFor you, tesoro. All for you.â
You shudder as his lips plant kisses all over your neck while his hands roam your bare body, fingers teasing your breasts.
âYouâre so sensitive.â
He breathes, hands squeezing your breasts gently.Â
âWhen was the last time someone touched you like this, hm?â
âItâs been a w-while.â
You say, gasping when his thumb rolls over your pebbled nipple.Â
âO-OhâŠâ
Maurizio grins, placing one more kiss on your neck before standing up straight, tugging his pants and boxers down. You watch in amazement when his length bobs as itâs exposed, mouth watering at the sight.
He smirks. âDo you see something you like?â
âAbsolutely.â
You reply, biting your lip.Â
He laughs softly.Â
âWell...would you like to touch it?â
His cheeks flush pink.Â
You nod, reaching to wrap your hand around the base. His eyes flutter shut at your touch, and he sucks in a breath when you begin stroking.
âMmmmm, davvero buono.â (so good.)
His head falls back when you increase your pace, hips gently rutting forward. His eyebrows knit in the center of his forehead, small moans escaping his lips.
Suddenly, he pulls away, letting out a shaky breath as his length stirs at the loss of contact.
âYou are too good at that, mi tesoro.â
He bites his lip, fingertips teasing the lace waistband of your panties.
âMay I touch you now?â
You nod, jumping softly when he all but tears the material down your legs, exposing your folds. He reaches down and cups your center, eyes widening when he feels how wet you are.
âOh,â
He whispers, fingers tracing up to rub your clit.
âTesoro...youâre so excited already, and I havenât even touched you.â
Your hips suddenly buck forward out of instinct, and Maurizio chuckles breathily, rubbing a bit faster. You gasp, breath catching in your throat.Â
âS-Shit.â
You allow yourself to get lost in the pleasure, head falling forward onto his chest. The small noises falling from your lips get increasingly louder as you draw closer and closer to release.Â
His fingers suddenly push up into you, and you almost cum right on the spot. His digits feel so much better than yours as they begin plunging in and out, scissoring occasionally.Â
âLasciatemi prendere, tesoro, e ti acchiappero.â (Let go for me, treasure, and I will catch you.)
He whispers breathily, stroking faster.Â
âAndiamo.â (Let go.)
His fingers curl up inside of you, and after a few rubs on your g-spot, youâre coming with a soft cry.Â
âMaurizio...oh mio dioâŠâ (Maurizio...oh my godâŠ)
Your knees buckle and you begin to fall, but he catches you immediately, smiling down at you as his fingers continue to work you through your climax. He leans over to kiss you again, slowly and gently pulling his fingers out.Â
âLay back, mi tesoro, and open your legs.â
He whispers against your lips, standing back up straight as you sit down on the edge of the bed before laying back.Â
You spread my legs, ready to receive him, and he smiles as he climbs on top of you. Heâs still wearing his glasses, and while you find that humorous and quite frankly cute, itâs also incredibly arousing for some reason. You donât dwell on it, wanting to focus on the moment unfolding before your eyes.Â
Maurizio strokes his hardened length a few times, grunting softly, before rubbing himself across your folds. His eyes shut and he takes a shaky breath as your slick spreads across his cock. He starts pressing and rubbing the tip against your clit for a bit, smirking when your hips buck up against him.
He looks down at you, lining himself up with your entrance.Â
âAre you ready? Iâll go slow for you, tesoro.â
You nod and he pushes in slowly, growling softly. He shivers, stopping when heâs about halfway in.
âIs it still okay?â
Your legs wrap around his waist, pushing his hips forward while you scoot closer, pushing him in the rest of the way.
âD-Does that answer your question?â
You chuckle.
He laughs breathily, nodding.Â
âIndeed, it does.â
You take deep breaths while you adjust to his size, soon nodding, letting him know that itâs okay for him to move. He pulls about halfway out before pushing back in again, exhaling loudly as he establishes a rhythm of slow, deep thrusts.Â
âO-Oh, cazzo, sei fantastico.â (Oh, fuck, you feel amazing.)
Your jaw hangs open, body bouncing with each of his inward thrusts. You hold onto his biceps for dear life as his pace increases ever so slightly.Â
âMaurizio,â
You breathe, looking up into his eyes.Â
âKeep going, please.â
The bed squeaks as his hipsâ movements grow more desperate.Â
âTesoro, I--cazzo--Iâm not going to last.â (fuck)
He says, eyebrows knitted on his forehead.
âI h-havenât done this--merda--in a w-while.â (shit)
You nod in understanding, moving your hands up to cup the sides of his face.
âItâs okay, M-Maurizio, itâs alright.â
His eyes meet yours as he growls softly, shaking his head.Â
âNo, itâs n-not. You deserve better, t-the best, Y/N.â
Your thumb swipes on his cheekbone as his eyes tear up with a mixture of pleasure and frustration.
âY-You already are the best, bello, and I w-want you to cum, no m-matter if I have o-or not. I want you to p-pleasure yourself, okay? Donât worry about m-me.â (handsome)
He smiles softly, falling onto his elbows, lips connecting with yours as he thrusts get harder. He grunts deeply with each thrust, breath hot and heavy on the side of your neck.
âOh tesoro, Iâm...close. WhereâŠâ
He searches for the right words, mind clouded with lust. He groans in frustration.
âDove vuoi che sborra?â (Where do you want me to cum?)
You tangle your fingers in his hair, tugging gently.Â
âSono sulla pillola. Puoi sborra dentro, se vuoi, bello.â (Iâm on the pill. You can cum inside, if you want, handsome.)
These words seem to awaken something in him, his eyes going black, hips suddenly rutting quickly and desperately into you.Â
âCazzo, sei incredibile, sei perfetto, tesoro.â (Fuck, youâre amazing, youâre perfect, treasure.)
Maurizio buries his face into the crook of your neck as he reaches climax, moans and gasps muffled by your skin. He buries his cock deep inside of you, painting your walls with his release, rutting them desperately as he fills you up.
âY/N, oh dio, prendi tutto per me. Bene, sei bravissima, mi tesoro.â (Y/N, oh god, take it all for me. Good, youâre so good, my treasure).
As soon as he finishes, his hand reaches down to rub your clit in circles, eyes meeting yours.
âCâmon, let me pleasure you now. Let go, tesoro, give yourself to me.â
Your back arches and your hips grind against his fingers, mouth full of whimpers, whines, and gasps as his fingers rub you. You grab onto his bicep when you cum, looking up into his eyes.Â
âYes, oh Maurizio, yes!â
You gasp, moaning softly as your release spreads throughout your body.
He continues to rub you through it, cock twitching slightly where it still sits inside of you, causing him to growl softly.Â
After both of you take a moment to catch your breaths, he slowly pulls out, and you can see that heâs already hard again. He blushes, looking away for a moment.
âI...Iâm sorry, thatâs never happened beforeâŠâ
You chuckle, shaking your head.
âMaurizio, you donât need to apologize. Itâs actually sort of flattering, that I can do that to you.â
He smiles softly, laying down next to you, pulling you back against him. You didnât realize exactly how hard he actually was until you felt him pressed against your back, and you felt bad.
âDo youâŠI mean, I can...â
You trail off, a bit embarrassed, hoping he got the point.
Maurizio immediately shakes his head.Â
âNo, tesoro, donât worry. I will be okay.â
Your teeth sink into your bottom lip before you speak.
âIf you wanted to, you could...rub it against me.â
You feel his member twitch at your proposition, and you turn around in his arms, looking up at him. His cheeks are bright red.
âWill you show me?â
He asks quietly.
You smile, nodding.Â
âAll you have to do is start moving your hips against me, using my skin to rub on.â
He experimentally rolls his hips, jaw clenched as he tries to contain himself.Â
âO-Oh.â
He tried it again, growling as his cock dragged along your stomach.
âTesoro, itâsâŠâ
You canât pretend that this isnât incredibly arousing for you to watch and feel. His tip was already red and leaking, so you knew he wasnât going to last very long.
âDoes it feel good, Maurizio?â
You feel him nod, hips moving faster now as he looks down at you.Â
âYes, cristo, itâs s-so good.â (christ)
His lips crash onto yours and he loops an arm behind you, holding you still as he begins rutting against you, growling into your mouth. He moves his head down to kiss and nip at your neck.
âYour s-skin is so soft, mi tesoro.â
He whispers, grunting with each forward motion now.Â
His leg lifts up and lays over your hip, allowing him to thrust harder, hand still on your lower back. Heâs close, you can tell, and you attentively watch the way his face contorts as he reaches orgasm.Â
He suddenly hugs you tight, a choked sob against your neck as his seed spills all over your stomach and his.
âAh! Ah--oh--cristo!â (christ)
You run your hands through his hair soothingly as he comes down, trembling slightly. He slides down your body a bit, resting his head between your breasts, kissing them gently.Â
After a short while, he looks up at you.Â
âGrazie, Y/N, grazie mille.â (Thank you, Y/N, thank you so much.)
You smile.Â
âYou donât have to thank me, Maurizio, it was my pleasure.â
He reaches up and connects your lips in a tender yet passionate kiss before he pulls away, cringing when he feels the stickiness between you.Â
âIâm sorry, fuck, Iâve never...thatâs neverâŠâ
You kiss him again, cutting him off.
âNo worries, we can just clean it off. Iâll get a wet washcloth.â
You stand and come back a moment later with a wet washcloth, reaching down to wipe yourself off before Maurizioâs hand wraps around your wrist, stopping you.Â
âLet me.â
He smiles, taking the cloth from your hand, cleaning up the sticky substance before doing the same to himself.Â
Your cheeks are warm as you look up at him.
âThank you.â
âNo problem, mi tesoro.â
He suddenly looks away, frowning softly.Â
âI-I canât stay tonight, Y/N, Iâm sorry. If someone catches usâŠâ
You shake your head, holding the side of his face.
âNo, no need to explain. I understand.â
Maurizio nods silently, sighing as he begins to redress. You slip your panties back on, along with an oversized t-shirt and you pull your hair up into a ponytail.Â
When heâs ready, you offer to go first, in case anyoneâs still awake. He agrees, and you make your way down the stairs, looking around, not seeing anyone. You look up the stairs and nod, indicating that itâs okay. He makes his way down and you walk with him to the door.Â
âDo you have a car coming?â
He nods. âMy driver is already outside.â
Thereâs a moment of silence before Maurizio suddenly grabs your hips, pulling you against him as his lips crash down onto yours, the kiss desperate and full of longing. You wrap your arms around the back of his neck, pulling him down closer.Â
He pulls away slowly, eyes fluttering open.Â
âAlla prossima, tesoro.â (Until next time, my treasure.)
You smile, biting your lip as he sneaks out the door, rushing down and hopping into the car waiting for him.Â
As you watch his car pull away from the curb, only one thought occupies your mind:
Holy shit, I just slept with Maurizio Gucci.

@spocksbedsidemanner and I came up with some great headcannons about the dark!Lu Ten verse, and I thought they were too good not to share. With her permission, below I have transcribed our conversation, because I am too lazy to rewrite it into a cohesive narrative. I'm E, and she is S.
E: I've got this headcannon that in Fire Nation culture children are seen as extensions of their parents. Parents get the praise of their children's accomplishments, and children pay the price of parent's mistakes.
S: Yes, yes, yes, I think that makes total sense for them, given their characterization they seem very about their legacy and lineage, esp Ozai w/ usurping the throne, and when he declares himself the phoenix king w/ Azula as just an extension of himself as firelord. He doesn't really think of her as her own person. Probs didn't think of Lu Ten as more than a solid claim for Iroh for the throne.
E: Exactly! When Lu Ten died, a piece of Iroh died, making him "weaker" and "less worthy."
S: Children of the royal family? Having their own drive and humanity separate of their parents' legacy? In MY Fire Nation? It's more likely than you think đ
Yesss exactly, I think that's why the fire nation was so readily accepting of Ozai's story that Azulon toootally revoked Iroh's title and bestowed it on Ozai, before kicking the bucket. Definitely totally happened exactly like that, don't question it, it's not like he had a son or a wife for his legacy anymore, shhhh⊠Like, it can't all just be fear of Ozai right? It must have made sense to the people somehow.
E: Pretty much. The line must continue. Iroh lost his son and the siege. Ozai has two children. It makes just enough sense to quiet dissenters. I imagine there's a famous play in the Fire Nation about a man who commits treason and his entire family is killed, even his newborn baby. Zuko tells the GAang about the play to explain why Iroh won't have a choice but to kill him.
S: Oooh yes, that'd make sense too. It's just the logical next step, it's a natural consequence of his father's treason being brought to justice, of course his uncle must eliminate him if he finds him, it's how it has to be. He would feel bad for his sister i bet, even if she did shoot him with lightning in that 'what if' you posted Poor Zuko đđ
E: "Yeah. Once the war is over my uncle will have to execute me publicly. It's tradition." *Shrug.* "Who wants tea?"
S: Omg lol. Yep. So straightforward.
Well, since it's inevitable, why spend unnecessary time struggling with it? Let's go train, he needs to give the Avatar as much time training in firebending as he can before they go defeat Ozai and his own execution afterwards. It was nice spending as much time as he gets with them in their group đ
E: Katara: Thank you fellow members of Operation: Save Zuko From His Horrible Family. Today we'll be going over a few options.
Sokka: Option one, take him to the South Pole and keep him forever.
Toph: Option two, take him to the Earth Kingdom where it isn't so COLD and keep him forever.
Aang: Option three, keep him on Appa forever.
Katara: We have many good options.
S: What excellent options i am sure kidnapping Zuko to protect him will go entirely smoothly and have zero mishaps. I'm personally voting for Appa, the Goodest Boy. If he just lives on Appa forever he can get closer to the SUN which is a thing that he needs, isn't that wonderful?
E: Literally that's Aang's argument to him.
"But honor demands I be executed!"
"Fuck. Your. Honor."
"Did Aang just... curse?"
S: Aaaaaaaa yesssss!! I feel for the gaang, it'd take a lot to get him to not feel that he MUST be executed for justice to be served, he's so ready to blame himself as a failure already bc of Ozai's abuse >_<
E: Now I'm imagining them actually smuggling him to the South Pole after the battle before Iroh can arrive to apologize to/reassure him. Maybe they tell Iroh he died to keep him safe. Zuko goes hunting with Sokka, bending practice with Katara, penguin sledding with Aang. It's so fun and wholesome. Eventually the truth gets out and Iroh feels SO MUCH relief & guilt. He wonders whether it's better for Zuko to go find him and apologize or let him go so he can feel safe. đđ
S: Yes! They have no way of knowing that Iroh would never hurt Zuko, just Zuko's word on how things are in the Fire Nation, so it's just safer to somehow get information to Iroh that Zuko died in the battle. Wholesome found family hijinks ensue đđ
Either way once Iroh finds out i bet he would want to see him, if only from a distance, just to see him alive and happy playing in the snow with his friends! Could be the catalyst for some progressive new policies, and protections put in place to protect the lives of children and families of criminals. Never let there be a kid like Zuko again, thinking that they have to die bc of their terrible dad.
E: đ„șđ„ș Now I'm imagining Iroh standing on top of a snow hill, just watching the village. Zuko is sitting with Katara and Sokka's family (Gran-Gran forgave him immediately) eating some octocaribou he helped kill. Aang is munching on the vegetarian sides while telling a story that's making Zuko laugh. His cheeks are rosy and full. He looks so comfortable and at peace.
Iroh remembers how tense Zuko was in Ba Sing Se, how his shoulders were always hunched up to his ears. Iroh's eyes fill with tears. His guilt chokes him.
He goes home and immediately starts drafting new laws. He also commissions a talented playwright to create a new version of that stupid play that pushes the moral of mercy and kindness.
S: YES đđđ *cries*
Aang being the Avatar, i bet they'd have to see each other at some official world peace functions or whatever at some point. Iroh doesn't want to outright say anything in case Zuko hears of it and feels obligated to come back if he doesn't actually want to (if he could ever forgive Iroh...), but he makes some comment to Aang about ~if~ Zuko were still alive, he would wish to tell him how much he loves him and wanted him to be happy, however that happiness would look for him, with Iroh in it or withoutâŠ
E: *Gif of the tenth Doctor getting all melodramatic about radiation poisoning captioned as "I'm in a glass case of emotion!"* Iroh is in the Earth Kingdom for FL business when he's invited to dine with the prestigious Beifong family. While there he talks to Toph about his nephew. He gives a passionate speech about what a good person Zuko was, how honorable, how kind, ect⊠He talks about the new laws he passed to protect kids like Zuko. He gets really emotional at one point and starts crying. He feels a hand on his shoulder and looks up to see Zuko. At first he can't believe Zuko is really there. Then he pulls him into a hug and starts sobbing. He begs for forgiveness. Zuko starts crying too. This isn't what he expected. He says he loves his uncle and never blamed him. They hug and cry while the GAang watches.

While You Sleep
Chapter 12
Relationship: Bucky Barnes x Reader Warnings: kidnapping, violence Summary: Soulmate!AU - Throughout life, youâre given glimpses of your soulmate through dreams. As you sleep, memories flash in your mind showing you the life your soulmate has lived. Everyone around you raves about how their soulmate reads great books or volunteers in their spare time. But you canât relate as your dreams end up being more like nightmares. Through initial images of death and violence, you come to learn your soulmate is the Winter Soldier.
Masterlist | Series Masterlist
âThey couldnât take that from me. They could never take you.â
âI never want to bring you pain or worry, okay? That shouldnât be what⊠we do.â
Buckyâs words rang in your head as you sat in the lonesome cell, fighting for release any way you thought to try. But naturally, these attempts of wrangling yourself out of this had fallen flat and you werenât trying anymore, thatâs for certain. It only made the restraints dig into your wrists more. Not to mention you were beyond tired hitting a point of exhaustion that you didn't know was possible. You werenât given a chance to relax as you sat on edge, waiting. Waiting for what - or really who - you didnât quite know.Â
Sure, you had an Avenger for a soulmate (at least, that was what you considered Bucky, despite his humbleness) but you werenât exactly up to date on their enemies. From your understanding, between the looks of the facility and your soulmateâs history, this was seeming like the work of Hydra. But they had been abolished...right? Apparently, you didnât know anymore and doubts rang in your head as you feared you werenât some random victim.
The first signs of daylight were just beginning to peek into your cell from a very tiny, thin window located near the top of the wall beside you.
Suddenly, a grumbling voice called from outside the cell. âSheâs up.â You whipped your head towards the sound, just barely able to make out a figure illuminated by the early morning glow. There was probably some comment to make to whoever this was about how you hadnât really slept but you couldnât find your voice at the moment.
âExcellent.â A deeper, possibly older, voice called from down the hall. The man sounded way too excited for your liking. Your stomach threatened to empty its contents as heavy footsteps began making their way towards your cell.
When the steps stopped, you tried squinting through the minimal light but still couldnât make out much of either man. If you had to guess, they looked like some doctors of sorts in long lab coats with notebooks in hand. One thing you definitely could tell was that they didnât hesitate to stare back. You could feel their eyes taking you in over and over again making your heart pound in a weirdly familiar way.
âDoes she speak?â The first man asked with a humorless scoff. You twisted in your wrist restraints wishing for some courage to get up and maybe put space between you.Â
Mustering a scrap of energy, you turned away from the men, hoping maybe your matted hair falling in your face could block them out forever. Because really, couldnât this be forever? How would anyone know what happened? Your best bet was your coworker noticing your absence but then you thought of Bucky⊠He was away for now and by the time he caught wind who knows what would be of you. Tears began welling in your eyes at the thought of this being it for you -- whatever this was. You still werenât sure what about you compelled these men to kidnap you in the middle of the night.
âHey,â the same voice called out to you this time, pulling you from your troubling thoughts. Slowly, you turned back to him, taking in more of the doctor (fake, you guessed) persona now. âI asked if you speak.â
âNo,â you grumbled. You didnât know where this smart response came from but it made you feel a bit better like you were coming back to yourself. Really, though, you were in no position to start getting smart with anyone.
He let out a joyous laugh that sent far more fear through you. âThe Soldierâs soulmate has an attitude, huh?â
Soldier? Bucky. Your heart panged at another thought of him. If thatâs who they were referring to, this was to be about Bucky, you realized. These men knew him and whatever connection was festered there, it hadn't fizzled and you were caught in the crossfire. This actually couldnât be them⊠But it looked like it.
Suddenly, the cell door opened with a loud screech, and the two men walked into the full glory of the morning sunrise. There, on their white coats, you saw an emblem of what appeared to be some tentacle-bearing creature. Your suspicions were regrettably confirmed.Â
They walked towards you, their eyes looking over you as if you were an experiment and they were memorizing you. With fear racing through you, you slowly began scooting backward trying to get as far away as you could. Your back eventually hit a wall and they just kept coming.Â
âQuite the squeamish one for being chained to The Soldier,â the second man observed, writing something down in his notebook. You could see now that he was much older, having that wiser look in his older years. You guessed he was a leader of sorts (at least, that was how you were going to file him in your head) and the other man, the one who was so kind to comment on your attitude, was some kind of assistant. You couldnât take your eyes off the logo on their coats as it was practically screaming in your face. It all felt impossible and yet here you were, in the belly of the beast.
âW-What am I doing here?â You asked, your voice scratchy and nervous. Honestly, you were just glad you had the guts to make any noise. The assistant looked a bit humored at your question.
âWow, she speaks full sentences,â he commented with an unsettling smirk.Â
The âleaderâ of the pair shot him a look before turning back to speak to you. âWe have some observing to do, my dear,â he briefly explained.
The vagueness of it all was certainly not helping you - like anything realistically could in this moment. Still, you pursued it. âObserving?â
He hummed in response, turning back for a moment to write a few more lines in the notebook. Truthfully, you wanted to just kick it out of his fucking hand. Your eyes flicked quickly to the assistant but he wasnât handing out any hints, just looking at you like you were something to be conquered. Oh, how you wanted to vomit on their shiny dress shoes.
âI will explain our intentions to ease your mind,â he snapped his notebook shut, âbut first, you are to be moved.â
And just like, as if his words were keys, a hoard of men entered the cell and hoisted you to your feet. You tried kicking and screaming but they were strong. Maybe too strong. A strength you possibly could only recall in two other men you knew. But you didnât have time to dwell on it as they corralled you easily and forced you down the hall.Â
Everything was dark again. There was no light from the windows in the hall, just some musty glows of lightbulbs hanging from the ceiling. You didnât know where to look so you just stared downward, taking in the metal flooring that made you chilled.
After turning a few corners, you were brought to a much larger cell. This one at least had a chair, but you didnât think it was exactly a nice grand gesture as your eyes landed on the restraints attached to it. The second thing you noticed was some sort of computer-like machine and rolling tables which lined the side. If you hadnât known better, you wouldâve thought this was just another medical office.Â
You yelped as one of the large men threw you on the chair, not giving you a second to even adjust before your hands were unbound only to be rebound by the chairâs restraints. You tugged a bit at them out of reflex, finding them as sturdy as expected. Your legs were free, though, maybe offering some tactic but exhaustion and fear overtook you.
Once they deemed you settled in, the army of men left, walking in line as commandingly as they had entered. The leader and his assistant stayed, waiting for you three to finally be alone once more. The door shut with a disturbing bang, really sealing your fate. The assistant stayed off to the side, leaning against a wall adjacent to the chair. The leader walked over to you, taking a seat on some rolling stool. Wow, these guys really thought they were serious professionals or something.
âI hope the trip here was okay,â the leader said with a chuckle. âComfortable?â He motioned towards your lounging state. You blinked. âI see we are losing that attitude. What a shame, really. Iâm sure your soulmate loves a firecracker.â Your body visibly tensed at the mention of Bucky. The elderly man didnât miss it. In fact, it seemed like you unintentionally gave him the perfect segue into his whole evil spiel.
âAh, yes, your soulmate.â The leader nodded as if he had just forgotten all about it. âWell, you see, the fact he even has one was news to us,â he shrugged and glanced at his assistant who nodded in confirmation. âWe were sure when we wiped him we were wiping everything, so imagine our surprise when we find out heâs out and about dancing - with you on his arm.âÂ
Your throat tightened as the memories of you and Bucky at the dance hall flooded your mind. It had been so busy that night you never wouldâve thought youâd have to worry about someone⊠It sounded so ludicrous to you. You almost wish he hadnât said it as the thoughts of that night were suddenly a bit darker. The carelessness you two had held seemed foolish now.Â
The leader watched you carefully. When you didnât say anything in response, just blinked away more tears, he continued, âAt first, we were quite angry we had missed something so big. We couldâve sworn we broke every attachment time after time but, as I said, you just swept The Soldier right off his feet. So, naturally, our sights were set on eliminating you.â He let out a ridiculous hearty laugh. âBut then my assistant here,â the man in the corner waved in response, ârealized that that would be a waste. There could be potential here for you. For you and your soulmate. Potential rooted in a team. Two unbreakable soldiers, both in bond and skills. What more could Hydra want?âÂ
You gasped, your eyes growing wide, at the explanation. You didnât know what to do now, your body had a mind of its own as it began shaking your head furiously as your wrists tugged and tugged at the restraints. This wasnât realistic. They were absolutely mad. What kind of foolishness was this? They couldnât possibly -
âNow, now,â the leader chuckled and turned to his notebook. He began checking referencing stuff from the monitor to the paper. âDonât get too excited. Weâre still brainstorming the whole concept and while itâs not near execution, it is on the promising side. There is, though, a vital component we seem to be lacking: your soulmate.â
Bucky⊠Your heart felt like it was going to rip itself out of your chest. Was he walking into a trap? Assuming he was walking in at all? Who was to say he had any idea of what was going on with you? How long could this all be for⊠You let out a surprising sob.
The leader responded to your outburst with an annoyed scoff. âThereâs no reason to cry, dear. Heâs sure to be here soon thanks to that little bond you have. If he hasnât already recognized your distress by now, well, heâs not as smart as we thought.â He shrugged and began typing away on the monitorâs keyboard. âThe whole attachment may all work out in our favor after all. Eventually, you two will be reunited, and wonât that be just lovely?â
Truthfully, you didnât know anymore. You had no doubt in Buckyâs fighting abilities but these guys were⊠Well, they were pretty much responsible for him and everything you had seen him be put through. Who knows what they could do if (and when) he walked through those doors. You were lucky you hadnât passed out yet from this anxiety alone.
âBesides, as I said, itâs all later down the line anyway,â the leader said. It had suddenly occurred to you at that moment that you were very glad he hadnât given out his name. You couldnât imagine humanizing these monsters. âFor now, though, we are interested in learning more about you. Iâll be honest, on paper you are quite boring. Barely finished high school, left college for a coffee shop job⊠The pairing is almost comical. We just canât figure out what you offer him and while, really, who are we to question Fate? But I still think in time we can figure out...well, whatever it is about you.â
You shook your head slowly, your eyes barely even able to focus on him anymore. Everything in you felt so heavy. âIâm not special.âÂ
âOh, but thatâs where youâre wrong,â the leader chuckled. âHe makes you special.â
As if on cue, a chorus of screams erupted from the hallway. You all jumped and turned towards the door. There was a little window on it but all you three could see were the bodies of the army of men from earlier flying about.Â
âSooner than we expected,â the leader mumbled and began furiously typing something into the computer.
You didnât know what to do besides sit there and wait for whatever was coming. Deep in you, you knew it was Bucky, you could feel it. You could feel him. But there was also a part of you that could also sense⊠rage. A very familiar, unsettling rage burned within him. It made you wonder if you actually wanted to see him in such a state. Some sick piece of you wished they had just knocked you out.Â
There wasnât much more time to consider what you were going to do as the door to the cell was ripped off. Literally, fully, ripped away at the hinges to reveal a very determined, very angry, Bucky. He had an expression you didnât recall seeing before, even in the nightmares. He looked ready to murder everything in its path but there was no calculated strategy to the madness. It seemed to be just him and his pure desire to eliminate anything and everything. His eyes were locked deadly on the older man, seemingly opting to ignore you. The assistant had begun shifting further away into the corner of the space.
âSo nice of you to join us,â the leader said with an unsettling laugh. âIâll admit, we werenât expecting you so soon. I barely got a chance to get to know your little darling here.â He motioned towards you.Â
âIâm only going to ask this once,â Bucky finally spoke, his voice strained, âlet her go.â
The leader smiled, âIâm not sure youâll be asking for anything in a moment, anyways.â He motioned towards the computer. You and Bucky followed his motion with matching bewildered expressions. âIn fact, I think youâll be the one doing what I ask.â
Buckyâs eyes widened. âNo-,âÂ
But it was already set in motion. With a simple press of a button, the room filled with an electronic voice repeating a series of words in a foreign language. You looked around, unsure of where this could even be coming from and what the hell was being said, Your eyes eventually settled on Bucky who looked completely⊠lost. You gripped the sides of the chair, begging for this to just be over, as you watched that was so familiar. You could feel the memories rising from the depths of your brain. Hidden away, nearly suppressed... You gasped. The nightmares. Thatâs what all this was. They had pulled the trigger.Â
As much as you loved and trusted Bucky, you couldnât say the same for the other guy. If in that state, could he even recognize you? Like, fully understand your role? You didnât want to find out, truly. The panic that was settling in now was unlike anything you had experienced that day. Not even the idea of Hydra goons kidnapping you had sparked this much within.Â
You were preparing yourself for the worst as you watched Bucky try to shake it off. The leader wore a proud expression while the assistant kept his lonely distance, watching everything unfold. Suddenly, Bucky began mumbling to himself as his hands made hard fists. You thought the blow was finally coming and he was going to be gone. Just like that.
But then Bucky lunged. In one swift move, he pounced on the leader, taking everyone in the room off-guard, especially the target of the aggression. The older man hadnât even had a chance to put his arms up before your soulmate was punching him relentlessly. Buckyâs yelling in the process was of pure, expressive anger, completely drowning out the screams of pain from the leader. You didnât know what to do. You wanted to look away so badly but you were also hypnotized. Bucky was so determined and unwavering in whatever goal was planted in his head. A bit thankful someone would go to such lengths for you, you had had enough of such danger in your sleep - you didnât want it in your reality.Â
Bucky switched suddenly to strangling the man and that seemed to be the final straw for the leaderâs life. The older man was soon just a lifeless, limp body on the floor. Bucky was still knelt above him, watching the soul drain from his victim. Your jaw went slack. You couldnât turn this off.
The assistant didnât help it as he made some foolish break for the exit but Bucky was just as fast. In a couple of determined strides, Bucky yanked the younger man back by the neck and threw him into the wall creating an artistic indentation. The assistant fell to the floor with a chilling thud.Â
There was no one left for his sights to land on except for you. Slowly, Bucky turned around. A shiver ran up your spine when your eyes finally met. You didnât know who was standing before you. Whatever or whoever this was quickly began stomping their way towards you. You shut your eyes and flinched away, waiting for a painful, finishing blow from the Soldier.Â
But it never came.Â
Instead, all Bucky did was lean over to turn off the speakers and then began untying your wrists. Hesitantly, you turned to look at him but found he wouldnât look at you, just was intensely concentrated on the restraints.Â
âB-Bucky?â Your voice was scratchy as you fumbled over his name.Â
âItâs me, doll,â Bucky responded with an exhausted sigh. He sounded normal to you, his demeanor not even looking close to what you remembered from the nightmares. He⊠He was okay. Bucky still wasnât looking at you as he finished one restraint then went on the next.
âYouâre notâŠâ
Bucky shook his head. âEverythingâs okay,â he mumbled. âWeâre getting you out of here.â
âWe?â
âThe team is outside handling the other men.â
âYou all came for me?â
Bucky finally looked up at you. For the first time, you could see just how tired he looked. A man nearly on the brink of defeat and enduring the fight. Your heart ached as all you wanted to do was crawl into his arms and take the longest naps of your lives.Â
âOf course, sweetheart,â Bucky nodded. Gently, after the last restraint was undone, he picked you up bridal style. You threw your arms around his neck and buried your face in his shoulder, letting yourself relax and the tears flow.Â
âThank you,â you mumbled but Bucky didnât respond as he carried you out of the facility
***
You mustâve fallen asleep because a few hours later you awoke at some sort of compound. You were lying in what appeared to be a hospital bed but nothing about this place looked like a typical hospital. The technology was too advanced and everything just seemed too quiet. You looked around, letting your eyes adjust to the bright light of the sun shining in from the large room windows. In the corner, you were greeted by the sight of Bucky sleeping awkwardly in a chair.
You twisted in the bed, trying to get more comfortable under the blanket. The super-soldier hearing mustâve kicked in because one ruffle of the blanket made Buckyâs eyes shoot open. He looked at you, panic shifting to relief when he saw you were awake. Quickly, in a few steps, he was out of the chair and at your bedside.Â
âHow are you feeling?â He asked softly. His hand went to touch your cheek but he must've thought better of it and instead lowered it. Your heart broke a bit wondering what self-deprecating thoughts were running through his brain after everything he had to do.Â
âIâm okay. Just a bit sore,â you shrugged but boy was it the hard truth. You hadn't been in a comfortable position in hours and endured being thrown around like some rag doll.Â
âDo you need any medicine?â Bucky asked, his voice suddenly having an air of panic to it. âI can call for help if you need it. Are you hungry? Do you need water? Or -Â Or just anything to drink? I can get you-,â
âBuckyâŠâ You placed your hand on his to calm down. He flinched at your touch. âIâm fine. Everything is fine.â
He shook his head. âNothing is fine, sweetheart. You were taken from me-,â Bucky cut himself off as his eyes began welling with tears. He looked wrecked as he stared down at you, taking in your current state. You felt the pain, wanting nothing more than to make all these torturing thoughts vanish. âYou⊠You saw things that I just⊠I never wanted you to deal with-,â
âItâs over.â You took a deep breath. âIâm here, Iâm safe, and youâre with me.â
Bucky closed his eyes as if preparing for something. âAfter what happened back there, do you even want me around anymore?â
Your jaw went slack at his question. Sure, there was absolutely no denying that the events of today scared you, most likely more than you realized. You had only seen Bucky that determined and violent in your nightmares so to see it just steps away was jarring. But you also knew nothing changed within him. He wasnât a robot or anything. He wasnât someone just taking commands. He had remorse. You certainly couldnât say the same for who greeted you in your sleep. It may take you some time to adjust, sure, but you werenât turning away. At least, you were going to try not to. Healing was just beginning.
âOf course, I do,â you said, raising your other hand to Buckyâs cheek. At first, he flinched but slowly he leaned into the touch, sighing like he was letting go of something. âBucky, what happened back there⊠You had no choice. I donât have to tell you that those were some very, very bad people. They had it coming and the fact you went to those lengths to save me is unbelievable.â
âIâd go to the ends of the Earth for my girl,â Bucky admitted.Â
You let out a weak giggle. âThank you.â A pause. âMay I ask how you figured out I was in trouble?â
Bucky smirked. âI had a nightmare.â
You raised your brows in surprise. âA nightmare?â
He nodded, âI started to feel weird after leaving for the mission like there was something I was missing. A little later on, I was taking a nap and you of course appeared but it was unlike any other dream I had ever had about you. It was⊠You were scared, deathly afraid of something, and then I saw what was going on. I practically watched it all play out from your apartment and on. It didnât take too long to put everything together.â
You hmmâd. âThank God for nightmares.â
Bucky chuckled and placed a light kiss on your forehead. âThank God for nightmares,â he repeated in agreement.

âBreaktime At The Ministryâ
Summary:Â Hermione finds herself working into the early hours of the morning. Luckily, Ron is there to make sure she is rewarded for her efforts. (A fic to celebrate Hermioneâs birthday)
(Warning, this fic contains scenes of a s*xual nature and is not ace safe)
                           Read on AO3.
This fic contains: cunnilingus, doggystyle, cowgirl style, office s*x, and some mild allusions to food k*nk.
~~~~~~~~
Bloody typical, it was!
Hermione Granger-Weasley was not in the habit of swearing, but sometimes she couldnât help it.
It was night-time, at the ministry. Hermione glowered down at the stacks of papers on her desk that she had been sorting through. Even by her standards, this was too much. As a teenager, she would have probably enjoyed this. But, after spending two decades married to a certain wonderful redhead, Hermione had long since stopped enjoying working herself to the bone that much.
God, she wished she was at home. Aside from a few apricots obtained from the cafĂ© before it closed, Hermione hadnât eaten in over six hours. Normally, she would be at home, enjoying a quiet Saturday night in, perhaps cuddling in bed with Ron after an excellent lasagne he had cooked from scratch.
But, no, she had been called into the office on short notice. Apparently, there had been a sudden development in a high-profile case, and no-one else in the department with her level of authority was available.
Still, she was almost finished now.
Signing one last paper, Hermione placed it on the desk. Yawning, she rose to her feet, and began to place each paper into the safe set against the wall. Given the amount, this sadly took longer than she would have normally liked.
Finally, she placed the last one inside, and closed the safe door.
Hermione gave another yawn, and locked the safe with a flick of her wand.
âMs Granger-Weasley?â
Hermioneâs head shot upwards to the door. She knew that voice anywhere.
âRon!â
In an instant, sheâd crossed the room, and threw her arms around him in a hug. She gave a contented sigh as she leaned into his frame, breathing in his signature Ron scent. He smelled of home. Of baked goods, cuddles on the sofa, and of late night misadventures.
âI missed you,â she murmured, as they leaned against her desk. âItâs been a long day.â
âMissed you too, love,â he whispered, pressing a kiss to the top of her bushy hair. He had placed a large box on the desk. âHonestly, of all days for you to get called into work. Still, at least youâve finished in time.â
âIn time?â Hermione asked, looking up at him. âIn time for what?â
Ron chuckled.
âItâs now the Nineteenth of September. Your birthday.â
âWhat?â Hermione exclaimed, suddenly turning to look at the clock on the wall. Sure enough, midnight had just struck. âIâmâŠâ
Her shoulders slumped.
âIâm older.â
âHey, whatâs with that tone?â Ron said, his mouth quirking into his signature lop-sided grin.
âIâm the oldest one out of our friends!â she said, miserably. âI was born in the seventies, Ron!â
âOnly by a few months!â Ron chuckled, giving her shoulder a gentle squeeze. âYouâre barely six months older than me.â
âStill-â
âAnd I seem to recall you having no issues with me getting older.â
âThatâs because you get hotter as you get older!â
Ronâs blue eyes twinkled, and he leaned forward so that he was right up close to her ear.
âWell,â he whispered, the tone of his voice sending shivers down Hermioneâs neck. âWhoever said the same thing wasnât happening to you too?â
âV-very funny,â Hermione stammered, feeling her face flush. Even after almost two decades of marriage, she still found herself shocked that Ron was able to have this effect on her. âYouâre a tall, handsome redhead. Iâm-â
âBloody gorgeous,â Ron whispered. âYou being a year older isnât gonna change how mind-bogglingly in love with you I am.â
Ronâs lips met hers, and she found herself clinging to him as their kisses lingered and became emboldened. It was blissful oblivion. Pure and simple. The outside world disappeared. There was only Hermione and the man who loved her.
Eventually, Hermione pulled away, breathlessly.
âHow about you take the weight off your feet, love?â Ron breathed. âYouâve earned it after working so hard.â
With a happy squeal, Hermione found herself lifted off the ground, and placed softly into her desk chair.
âWhy would I need to-â
Hermioneâs voice cut off as Ron dropped to his knees before her, his hands sneaking with expert care up her legs to the top of her skirt. His fingers curled around both the pencil skirt and the knickers beneath.
âR-Ron,â Hermione stammered, feeling heat begin to pool around her centre. âW-Weâre in my officeâŠâ
âI know,â Ron murmured. âIs that a problem?â
âW-well, no⊠but what if someone turns up?â
Without a word, Ron pulled his wand from his pocket, and pointed it over his shoulder at the door. He was so tall that he didnât even to reach up high.
Hermione heard the lock in the door click, and the unmistakable buzzing sound that came with a âmuffliatoâ charm.
âYou were saying?â
âW-well⊠I⊠I suppose there isnât any harm in it-OOOOHâŠâ
She slipped downwards in the chair as Ronâs hand pulled down on her skirt and knickers, the material sliding down her legs. Ron promptly threw them both over his shoulder.
âYou wonât be needing them for a while,â he growled, as he pulled the chair closer to him. The coolness of the air on her bare skin, as well as the feel of the leather against her bare arse, was oddly thrilling.
âR-RonâŠâ Hermione breathed. âD-donât leave me hanging hereâŠâ
The redhead smirked, the desire in his blue eyes encouraged by the soft tremble in his wifeâs voice. Ronâs hands began to skim along Hermioneâs thighs, sending shivers along her body. The heat in her centre grew stronger, and Hermione found herself perspiring.
âWouldnât dream of it, love.â
âT-then p-please-oooohhhhhâŠ.â
Ron had leaned forward, and his tongue had begun to explore.
Hermioneâs legs wrapped around Ronâs head, as her brain began to discombobulate. She was vaguely aware of how constricting her blouse seemed to be as her chest heaved. Her eyes had long since fluttered shut, but she could feel Ronâs mouth still fixed in a grin against her centre.
âOooh⊠f-fuck⊠Ron⊠oh, godâŠâ
One of Ronâs hands began to explore further up her body, his fingers skimming over her blouse. With a quick flick of his fingers, the buttons were undone. His hand came to rest on her left breast, fondling her through the lace bra she was wearing. The heat was now roaring through Hermioneâs body, concentrating every atom of her being on the pleasure that was emanating from her centre.
âR-Ron⊠Iâm⊠almostâŠâ
Ron chuckled against her, and Hermione let out a breathy gasp.
âDo it, love,â Ron whispered. âFuck, I love youâŠâ
Her body gave one last tremble, and Hermione felt her orgasm erupt. Her limbs sprawled out as the full force of her ecstasy rolled over her, pulsing through her being over and over again.
Gasping, she fell back against the chair.
âMerlin, âMione,â Ron breathed, emerging from under her skirt. âYouâre so beautifulâŠâ
He climbed to his feet, and leaned forward, kissing her softly on the mouth. She wrapped her arms around his shoulders, still half-dazed. God, Ron knew just what buttons to push with her, and Hermione was not complaining!
âR-RonâŠâ
Ronâs eyes glinted in the candlelight as he stared down at her.
ââMioneâŠâ
With a growl, Ron pulled Hermione to her feet, wrapped his arms around her waist as he pressed their lips together. Hermione shivered as she felt his girth throb against her stomach.
âSomeoneâs excited,â she whispered, against his lips.
âCan you blame me?â Ron growled, his hands now fondling her arse cheeks. âMerlin, âMione, you drive me wildâŠâ
Ronâs expert hands rose up her back, and a few seconds later her blouse dropped to the floor. Ronâs shirt and trousers quickly followed. Hermione felt her centre grow hotter as Ronâs pectoral muscles flexed before her. God, why was he so sexy?
âBeen a while since I was naked in the officeâ she said, as Ronâs hands undid the clasp of her bra. The lacy item joined the rest of Hermioneâs clothes on the floor. The reaction from Ronâs nether regions was immediate, and Hermione felt her breathing continue to grow heavier.
âMust be at least a year,â the redhead replied, his eyes glinting as he stared down at her. âShame we canât make this a routine.â
Ron picked his wand up where he had left in on the desk, and cast a non-verbal spell. The tell-tale signs of the contraception charm washed over them, leaving a brief purple light that disappeared after a few seconds.
âIâm⊠Iâm the head of the department,â Hermione gasped, pulling down on Ronâs black boxer-briefs. âI canât make a habit of shagging my husband in office hours.â
âTrue,â Ron replied, kissing her neck as he stepped out the offending material pooled around his ankles. âBut weâre not in office hours, Hermione. And speaking of shaggingâŠâ
With a deep growl, Ron spun Hermione around, so that she was pressed up against her desk. One of his hands reached around her, closing around her left breast. Ronâs lips met hers once again, and Hermione found herself pressing her arse up against Ronâs girth.
âDo it,â she gasped, reaching up to wrap her fingers into Ronâs hair. âMake love to me, Ron.â
Ron surged forward, and Hermione was struck by the familiar sensation of being filled. The heat pulsing through her body grew more intense by the moment, as Ron continued to buck against her.
âF-fuck,â Ron growled, into her ear. ââMioneâŠâ
âRonâŠâ
Their lips met again, and Hermione moaned against him. God, this was wonderful. Even after so many years of marriage, the attraction between them never seemed to diminish. If anything, it had deepened and developed over time, forming a bedrock of love and affection that had seem them through so much.
âRonâŠâ
âH-Hermione,â Ron moaned, âThe chairâŠâ
Turning around, Ron pulled Hermione with him. Stumbling slightly. he sat down in the leather office chair, and Hermione bestraddled his lap, moving around so that she was facing him. Their lips met again, as their bodies began to buck against each other. One of Ronâs freckled hands became entangled in her bushy hair, while the other was busy fondling her arse. She could already feel it beginning to pinken.
âI⊠I love you, Hermione,â Ron gasped, his breathing ragged and intense. âNo matter h-how old we get. You understand?â
Hermione nodded, her heart beating faster with the welling of emotion within her. Lust mixed with the sheer love she had for her husband.
âMioneâŠâ
âRon⊠g-god, IâmâŠâ
âM-me too⊠can⊠can IâŠ?â
âY-yes! Do it⊠Ron⊠oooohhhh!â
Their bodies gave one last motion, and their orgasms hit. Hermioneâs limbs flailed, and she fell against Ronâs chest, gasping for breath.
âMerlin, I love you, Hermione,â Ron breathed, his voice less ragged. âI love you.â
âI love you too, Ron,â she replied, kissing him on the lips. âSo much.â
After their breathing had slowly calmed, they sat up in Hermioneâs office chair, and cuddled against each-other, enjoying the feeling of just being with the other.
âDo you mind if we have a slow day after we get home?â Hermione said. âI could use a nice lie-in. Unless you had anything planned?â
âThat sounds good to me. Although, before we leave for homeâŠâ
Ron clicked his fingers, and his wand leapt from the desk into his hand. He then summoned the large box that he had been carrying earlier. He opened it, and Hermione was immediately aware of a sugary scent.
âYou brought cake?â
âYou were working into the early hours, Hermione,â Ron said, cutting a couple of slices with his wand and then handing one to her. âI knew you probably hadnât eaten in ages. And, well, it is your birthday cake.â
âYouâre so sweet,â she said, pressing a quick kiss to his cheek. Ron smiled at her, and the two of them began to leisurely eat.
âSoâŠâ Ron asked, wrapping an arm around Hermioneâs shoulder. âDo you feel a bit better about being a year older?â
Hermione smiled, coyly.
âMaaybe,â she replied, her finger running up and down Ronâs thigh. âAlthough I could probably use a little more persuading.â
Slowly and deliberately, Ron scooped a large part of cream off his slice of cake, and began to daub it down Hermioneâs chest. Hermione felt her centre began to heat up once again, as Ronâs mouth twisted into his signature lop-sided grin.
âI think that can be arranged.â
