Was cleaning my desk so I could possibly get some work done and found this
Tumblr media
Why was I drawing dreamer? No clue when this was from, if I had to guess probably 2 or more months ago.
Love forgetting beautiful art then stumbling upon it again, like I know I drew it but like I have non of the criticism from when I was drawing still in my head when I look at it, it’s wonderful. (I think I was doing an art study of trying to redraw some panels of him, could be wrong tho)
Anyways this is dreamer from the comic dream consultation. Amazing read and I love him and rivka in this comic, art is also so stunning.
Whatever, beautiful drawing be upon ye

THREADS OF FATE | chapter 01
Tumblr media
chapter summary: you move to north carolina at a young age, growing up with healing powers and parents who believe in fate and soulmates. as you graduate high school, you decide to pursue your dreams in new york city.
a/n: hope you like it!
word count: 2,1k
warnings: none.
Tumblr media
The first memories you have are painted in golden light.
Sun-drenched afternoons in the rolling fields of Mexico, where the wind carried the scent of wildflowers and the earth was warm beneath your bare feet. You remember chasing butterflies with Daniela, your small hands outstretched, giggling as the tiny creatures danced just out of reach. You remember your mother’s laughter, the sound rich and melodic, as she called you both inside for dinner, her long skirts swaying as she moved. You remember your father humming a song while he carved delicate patterns into a wooden flute, pausing only to tap your nose with sawdust-covered fingers.
Life was simple then. Happy.
Your parents were not like other parents. They saw the world differently—not just in shades of black and white, but in the swirling colors of fate, destiny, and unseen forces guiding every moment. Your mother would sit with you and Daniela under the shade of the big ceiba tree in your grandmother’s backyard, weaving stories with her words as effortlessly as she wove the colorful threads of her embroidery.
"The universe speaks to us," she would say, her fingers dancing over the fabric, pulling threads through with careful precision. "Everything that happens, happens for a reason. We are all connected, you know? Like these threads. Some of us are meant to meet, to change each other’s lives. Some are meant to love, to suffer, to grow."
"Like soulmates?" Daniela would ask, her dark eyes wide with curiosity.
Your mother would smile then, nodding as if she knew some great cosmic secret. "Sí, exactly. Almas gemelas. Some people are tied together long before they ever meet. You will feel it when it happens—like something pulling you toward them, even if you don’t understand why."
You loved those stories. They made the world feel magical, full of possibility. You and Daniela would whisper about them at night, lying under thin cotton sheets, the air still heavy with the heat of the day.
"What if we already met our soulmates and just don’t know it?" you mused once, staring up at the ceiling, tracing patterns in the plaster with your eyes.
Daniela laughed. "That would be funny. Maybe it’s Mamá and Papá. Maybe soulmates aren’t just for love, but for family too."
"Maybe."
It was a comforting thought. That no matter what happened, you and Daniela were meant to be together, bound by something stronger than time.
But fate had other plans.
When you were three years old, your father received an opportunity—one he couldn’t refuse. A new job, a new life, far away from the only home you had ever known. Just like that, the golden fields and the ceiba tree and your grandmother’s house became memories, locked away in the corners of your mind.
North Carolina was different. The air smelled of pine trees instead of sun-warmed earth. The sky stretched wide, but it lacked the endless vibrancy of the Mexican sunsets you had grown up with. And the language—sharp and foreign—felt strange on your tongue.
At first, you didn’t understand why you had to leave. You cried when the plane took off, gripping Daniela’s hand so tightly that your fingers ached. But your parents, ever the dreamers, promised that this was part of the plan.
"The universe is guiding us," your mother said, her voice gentle as she stroked your hair. "We have to trust it, mi amor."
So you tried. You learned English, watching cartoons and mimicking the voices until the words didn’t feel so foreign anymore. You made friends at school, though you still clung to Spanish like a lifeline, whispering secrets to Daniela in the language that felt most like home. You adjusted.
But part of you always wondered if fate had made a mistake.
Tumblr media
The summer you turned seven, something happened that changed everything.
It was a hot afternoon, the kind where the air felt heavy, sticking to your skin like a second layer. You and Daniela had spent most of the day outside, running through the grass, daring each other to climb the old oak tree in your backyard. It was the tallest tree you had ever seen, its thick branches stretching toward the sky like something out of a fairytale.
"Bet you can’t climb higher than me," Daniela teased, already scrambling up the rough bark.
"Watch me!" you shot back, gripping the trunk and pulling yourself up after her.
The two of you had always been fearless together, a team. If Daniela could do something, you could too. It was an unspoken rule between you.
But that day, the rule broke.
One moment, Daniela was laughing, perched on a thick branch, the wind rustling her dark hair. The next, she was slipping—her foot catching on a loose bit of bark, her arms flailing as she tumbled downward.
You screamed.
The world slowed.
She hit the ground with a sickening thud, her knee scraping against the dirt, blood welling up instantly. She gasped, eyes wide, as she clutched her leg.
"Ay, mierda, that hurts," she hissed through clenched teeth.
Panic bloomed in your chest. You dropped down beside her, hands hovering over the wound, unsure of what to do. The sight of blood made your stomach twist.
"Daniela—"
She waved you off. "It’s fine. It’s just—"
You reached out before she could finish.
And then, something impossible happened.
Warmth spread from your fingertips, a tingling sensation that sent a shiver down your spine. The cut—deep and jagged just moments before—began to close. The blood disappeared, as if rewinding time itself. Within seconds, the wound was gone.
Daniela stared at you.
You stared at your hands.
"That was so cool!" she exclaimed, her shock morphing into excitement. "Do it again!"
But you couldn’t move. Your heart pounded against your ribs, your breath shallow. What had you just done?
Your parents found out that night.
Daniela, never one to keep secrets, had rushed into the house the moment your mother called for dinner, blurting out everything before you could stop her.
Your father went still. Your mother’s hands trembled as she took yours, turning them over as if searching for some hidden mark.
"El destino," she whispered, awe and fear warring in her expression. "You were meant for something greater than you know."
Tumblr media
After that, everything changed.
You learned to hide your powers, to keep them a secret from the world. Your parents made sure of it—explaining, in hushed voices, that people wouldn’t understand. That they would be afraid.
"The world is not always kind to those who are different," your father said one night, his voice heavy with something you couldn’t quite name.
Daniela, of course, had other ideas.
"You could be a superhero!" she whispered excitedly under the covers. "Like in the comic books! Imagine how many people you could help!"
"No one can know," you reminded her. "Papá said—"
"I know, I know." She sighed, rolling onto her back. Then, after a pause, she turned her head to look at you. "But I promise I’ll always protect you. No matter what."
You smiled, linking your pinky with hers.
"We take care of each other," you said, repeating the words that had become your shared mantra. "Always."
And for a long time, that was enough.
Until, years later, it wasn’t.
Because fate had a way of changing everything when you least expected it.
Tumblr media
Leaving home was never easy, even when you had been preparing for it your whole life.
Growing up, your parents had always encouraged you and Daniela to dream beyond the horizon, to chase whatever destiny called to you. Education was important to them, not just as a means to a better life, but as a way to truly understand the world.
"Knowledge is the one thing no one can take from you," your father would say, tapping the side of his head with a knowing smile.
So when you got accepted into a university in New York City, it felt like fate was guiding you there.
At least, that’s what you told yourself.
The truth was, you needed to leave. You needed to know who you were beyond the quiet safety of your childhood home. You needed to learn what your powers meant, what you meant in the grand scheme of things.
But that didn’t make saying goodbye any easier.
The house smelled like cinnamon and burning wax, the way it always did when your mother was nervous. She had spent the entire afternoon lighting candles, muttering quiet prayers under her breath as she moved through the small kitchen, her hands gripping the rosary she had owned since she was a girl.
Daniela was sprawled on the couch, arms crossed, her expression stormy.
"I still don’t get why you have to go so far," she muttered, kicking at the old wooden coffee table between you. "There are colleges here. Good ones."
You sighed. "It’s not just about school, Dani. I need to—" You hesitated, trying to find the right words.
How could you explain the feeling that had been gnawing at you for years? The restlessness, the sense that you were meant for something more?
"I just need to," you finished lamely.
Daniela scoffed. "That’s not an answer."
"I know."
The silence stretched between you, heavy and unspoken.
Then, Daniela shifted, her expression softening just slightly. "Promise me something?"
"Anything."
"Don’t forget where you come from." She reached out, squeezing your hand. "And don’t let New York turn you into some stuck-up city girl."
You laughed, nudging her with your elbow. "I’d never."
She rolled her eyes but smiled.
Later that night, as you lay in bed staring at the ceiling, you felt a weight settle in your chest. You had spent your entire life with Daniela always within arm’s reach, your constant, your other half.
Leaving her behind felt like tearing away a part of yourself.
"We take care of each other, always."
The words echoed in your mind, but for the first time, you weren’t sure if you could keep that promise.
Tumblr media
New York was nothing like home.
It was loud, overwhelming—a living, breathing thing that pulsed with energy at all hours of the day. The first time you stepped off the bus, dragging your single suitcase behind you, you felt like you had been dropped into a completely different world.
Back home, the stars stretched wide across the night sky, unhindered by the glare of city lights. Here, they were swallowed by towering buildings and neon signs, blinking advertisements for things you couldn’t afford. The streets smelled of exhaust, coffee, and something fried from the food carts on every corner.
It was exhilarating.
And terrifying.
Your apartment was nothing special—just a tiny dorm room shared with a girl named Mia, who greeted you with a lazy wave and a bored, "You snore, I’m kicking you out."
You liked her immediately.
Classes started the following week, and it didn’t take long for you to fall into a rhythm. Mornings were spent buried in textbooks, afternoons balancing a part-time job at a bookstore, and nights walking the city, letting the buzz of life around you settle your nerves.
For the first time in your life, you were completely on your own.
And you weren’t sure if you loved it or hated it.
The first few months passed in a blur of late-night study sessions, cheap takeout, and phone calls home that always ended with your mother telling you to eat more. Daniela texted constantly, sending you updates about home—Papá finally fixed the truck, Mamá started taking painting classes, the neighbor’s cat had kittens, why don’t you ever call me first, are you forgetting about me?
You never answered that last one.
Because no matter how much you missed home, you were changing.
New York had a way of forcing you to grow, to see the world differently. It stripped away the small comforts you had always taken for granted and pushed you into situations you never thought you’d experience.
Like the night everything changed.
It was supposed to be just another night—another shift at the bookstore, another walk back to your dorm. But fate had other plans.
And they came in the form of a god with a scepter and an army of alien soldiers.

Sae Itoshi still wears his ring—but the space beside you in bed stays cold. And love, as it turns out, doesn’t survive on silence.
── .✦ when i look into your eyes, a soulmate who wasn't meant to be
Tumblr media
You used to think silence was romantic.
In the beginning, there was something beautiful about sitting next to him in a café with nothing to say, yet feeling everything. Fingers lightly brushing over ceramic coffee mugs, eyes meeting across the table, your knee barely grazing his under the small table. 
You always thought he was a storm kept still just for you. Even his quiet held weight, meaning.
But now?
Silence is a weight you carry alone.
You stare at the seat across from you—his seat. Your fork scrapes across porcelain as you push asparagus and roasted chicken around your plate, untouched. 
Another dinner alone. 
Another meal you plated with too much hope. 
You still try, out of habit. 
You’ve been trying for ten years.
Your eyes flick to the digital clock on the oven.
9:47 PM.
You used to wait.
Now, you just clean up.
You met him in Madrid, fresh out of university, wide-eyed and brilliant with a pen. 
You were a translator at first, then a sideline reporter, and then a full-on broadcaster with glowing reviews. Your Spanish lilted and playful, your insight sharp. 
You caught his eye with the way you didn’t flinch at his silence. How you challenged him, even when others backed away.
Sae Itoshi was the prodigy.
You were just...you.
He said he liked your honesty. You liked his contradictions. He was all ice, but when he touched you, he burned.
You dated for a year. Engaged the next. Married the one after that. It was fast, but it made sense. You were both dreamers in your own ways. He had a career that stole him from the world. You had a world you were willing to shrink, just to stay in his orbit.
At twenty-four, you thought love was enough.
You’ve grown into a different version of yourself—your thirties are here. Your friends are planning holidays with their kids, attending parent-teacher nights, adopting dogs they name after old musicians.
You show up to everything alone.
“Oh, where’s Sae?”
You used to smile and say, “Training.”
Now, you sip your drink and shrug. “You know him.”
Because you do know him. Or at least, you did.
But that version of him—the boy who kissed you in your rain-wet hallway after a win, the man who promised you Venice and three kids and a house with a garden—is gone. 
Or maybe he never existed outside the breathless version of him you imagined in your twenties.
When the season ends, he’s home more. Kind of. You wake up to the sound of him showering. You hear him shuffle around the kitchen, pouring cereal, never coffee. He leaves the bowls in the sink.
He doesn’t ask how you are. He doesn’t notice the way your hand lingers on the fridge, or how your eyes are always just a little too glassy.
It’s not cruel. It’s just...empty. And that hurts more.
The house is quiet—too quiet for something so big. The kind of silence that fills your chest like smoke and refuses to leave.
You stand in the living room with your arms crossed, staring up at the one thing in this house that still feels alive.
A portrait.
Large and centered above the fireplace, preserved like a shrine: your wedding photo.
You don’t even know how long you’ve been standing there, just looking at it. But time doesn’t matter. Not in this house. Not anymore.
You, in that dress you spent weeks hunting for—a soft ivory with a dramatic, low back and a train that shimmered every time you moved. You remember how the lace felt under your fingertips. How your cheeks hurt from smiling too much. How your mother cried when she buttoned you in.
And Sae—
Sae looked at you like you were the only real thing in the world. His hand was at your waist, his mouth pressed against your temple, and the corner of his lips lifted just slightly in a way no one else ever saw.
You remember everything. The flowers you picked out together. The laughter that rang through the courtyard when your uncle accidentally tripped on the runner. The music—God, the music—you two danced to that soft jazz track he liked. He didn’t even want a first dance until he saw how badly you did.
Your fingers tremble as they drift to the ring on your hand.
You twist it, slowly.
You remember the way his thumb brushed over your knuckles when he slid it on. “You sure about this?” he asked, and you’d smiled, breathless. “Always.”
That girl is a ghost now. Her voice lives only in your memories.
You feel your throat tighten.
Then— A voice, sharp and cold, cuts through the haze:
“What are you staring at?”
You jump, heart in your throat.
Sae stands at the doorway, a duffel bag slung over his shoulder. He’s home earlier than usual. His hair still wet from a shower, his jersey only half-tucked into black sweats. 
He looks tired. He always does now. 
And the worst part is—he doesn’t even try to look at you.
You swallow the lump forming. “Oh. Just our… our picture.”
You smile, soft and nostalgic, still twisting the ring like a habit you can’t break.
“Oh.”
He looks up at it.
His expression doesn’t change. Blank. Like the photo means nothing.
“We need to take that down.”
He says it like he’s mentioning the weather. Like he’s telling you the laundry’s done. Then he walks off into the kitchen, door swinging behind him.
That’s it. The first conversation you’ve had in weeks.
Just seven words. And not one of them about you.
You stay there for a while longer, staring at the photo. At the girl who thought promises meant permanence. At the man who once looked at her like she hung the moon.
You fight for the first time in weeks one morning, over something stupid.
“You said we’d go visit my parents,” you remind him. “They’ve been asking.”
“I have meetings,” he replies, not even looking up from his phone. “You can go.”
“I don’t want to go alone, Sae.”
He finally looks up, brow slightly knit. “Why not?”
You nearly laugh. It’s not funny, but it is—it’s hilarious how little he sees you these days.
“Do you ever want to do anything with me?” Your voice wobbles.
“What kind of question is that?”
You blink. “An honest one.”
He sighs and rubs the bridge of his nose. “You’re being dramatic.”
There it is.
The sentence that breaks you. Not because it’s harsh. But because it’s indifferent.
You leave the room before he sees your tears.
You have the conversation one night in bed. 
You can’t sleep, and his breathing is slow beside you, too far on the edge of the mattress.
“You know I wanted a family,” you whisper into the dark.
He’s silent for so long, you think he’s asleep. Then—
“I never asked you to stay.”
It’s a knife without sharpness. A dull blade. And somehow, that makes it worse.
Your breath hitches. “Is that what I’ve been doing? Staying?”
He doesn’t answer.
Because he knows.
And so do you.
The day you leave, he doesn’t fight. Not really. 
He just watches you pack a small suitcase. You leave the rest. You leave the house. 
You leave the life you waited too long for.
But before you walk out the door, you turn to him. He stands in the doorway, arms crossed, still wearing the shirt you folded for him yesterday.
“I loved you so much, Sae.”
He looks at you like he almost believes you didn’t. “You still do.”
You nod. “Yeah. And that’s the saddest part.”
It’s raining when you step into the cab. Of course it is.
But for the first time in years, the silence inside you starts to sound like peace.
Not absence.
Just...quiet.
The apartment you live in now is smaller. There’s no grand foyer. No marble countertops or a view of the city skyline through floor-to-ceiling windows. Just one bedroom, a couch you picked out by yourself, and a kitchen with mismatched plates and mugs.
It’s quiet here, too.
But not the kind of quiet that swallows you whole.
This one... this quiet lets you breathe.
Still, some mornings are harder than others.
You’re sitting at your kitchen table, the rim of your coffee cup pressed to your lips but untouched. 
Your phone buzzes, face-down on the wood. You ignore it. 
You’ve gotten good at that. Letting people reach for you without having to reach back.
But something nags at you. So you flip the phone over.
A headline lights up the screen.
“Sae Itoshi: Better and Better, Even After Divorce.”
At 32, Japan’s prodigal midfielder is aging like fine wine—and nothing seems to slow him down.
Your stomach drops before you can stop it.
The article auto-loads, as if your phone already knew you’d read it.
There’s a photo. He’s on the field in a sharp navy kit. His hair longer than you remember. Still unreadable. Still beautiful in that cold, impossible way.
You skim, even when you don’t want to:
“After a decade at the top, Itoshi continues to impress. His stats have only improved, his stamina unshakable. When asked about his divorce that happened a year ago, the midfielder declined to comment, simply stating, ‘My focus is football.’”
Of course it is.
You set the phone down slowly.
He’s still shining. Maybe brighter than before. And not a single thing has changed.
No stumble. No pause. Just a chapter closed, and a new one opened without you.
You, though?
You left with nothing but your name.
No shared bank accounts. 
No alimony. 
No custody battles—there was nothing to fight over. 
Not even a goldfish to argue about.
You walked away with your clothes, your pride, and a ring in the bottom of a drawer.
And somehow, you’re the one mourning.
Not the man he is now. You don’t even know him.
You mourn the boy who whispered “I love you” in a chapel under Spanish stars.
The man who once kissed your hand like it was sacred.
The version of him who looked at you like you were the only thing he’d ever wanted.
Not the stranger who took his place.
And still—
Still, when it rains, you think of him.
Still, when you cook too much food, you instinctively plate two servings.
Still, when the crowd cheers on your TV and they zoom in on him—jaw tight, eyes ruthless, chest rising beneath that number ten—you feel something tug deep in your ribs.
You press the phone face-down again, like it’ll help the ache go away.
The coffee’s cold now, but you drink it anyway.
Because you’re still learning how to live without someone who’s very much alive.
Because some love doesn’t die with divorce.
It just turns into something you have to shove down til it disappears.

different
Tumblr media
Part of the Marquita universe. Others can be found here:
Marquita, mama and mami, accident
A/N: talks of homophobia, bullying. this was fun to write! If you have any more questions for Marquita or if I should make another universe let me know!
It was hard growing up with parents like Alexia Putellas and Jenni Hermoso. Both were incredibly talented footballers, attractive and smart, add Olga into the mix and it felt like you’d never reach the same level. 
Olga went to university, graduated top of her class and then went on to her masters, Alexia got a degree in business, and Jenni in economics. There were a lot of high expectations, in school, in football, in life in general. 
To be the daughter of two of spains best players in history, well it was back breaking work. Football was not a sport you enjoyed, at all. You weren’t horrible at it, but you weren’t at the same level as your parents or Tia’s. It was to be expected since you were only twelve. There was time to get better, to showcase your skills. Skills you didn’t have, nor did you really want. 
School wasn’t much better. You weren’t horrible but you were a dreamer, the teachers complained you were always off with the fairies but in honesty, you couldn’t care less. Maths was the only subject you cared about, you’d need it if you wanted to study engineering at university. 
The kids at school often picked on you for being that way, but you didn’t care that much. It was same with the football team. It was almost like the universe was conspiring against you. 
It was mid week, right before Christmas when you finally had enough. Your Mami was away for the UWCL game in Sweden, mama had just gone back to Mexico after spending her break with you. Olga’s work had died down a bit due to the holidays. 
Your relationship was still a bit strained since the accident but it was slowly repairing itself. 
“How do you do it?” You asked Olga as she closed her laptop for the night. 
“Do what?”
“Everything? Work in Madrid, Manuela’s, your relationship with Mami and your friends. It’s a lot to juggle.” 
“It is. It’s a bit easier now I’m in the routine but essentially my life is split in two. One half in Madrid, the other, more important half here, in Barcelona.” 
“You went to university, spent six years studying to do what? No offence but don’t you want more?” 
“In what way?”
“You have a degree in communications, you could be a journalist, a public relations person or I don’t know, in marketing but instead you work in social media?” 
“You don’t think I’m doing enough?” 
“Why social media Olga? Why not something more interesting, more meaningful?” 
“Why do your Mami and mama play football? Why do you? Because you all love it. Sure, I could be doing something else, stuck at a desk for nine hours a day, unhappy and bored. But by doing what I do, I get to travel the world with my clients, get introduced to people I’d never imagined meeting, help people became what they want.” 
You nodded your head, content with the answer, then stood up and packed up your homework, heading towards your room but not before turning to Olga, “I don’t love football. Not like Mami and mama. I am not like them and that’s okay.” You gave her a sad smile before turning out. 
“Mari-“ Olga started before hearing your door close. She let out a sigh, wondering where she went wrong this time. You had asked a question, slightly rudely, but she had answered. Given appropriate reasoning and yet, you seem sad about it all. It was truly baffling. 
Going to school the next day was hard. You were stuck in your head all day, wanting nothing more than to climb into bed and cry alone. But that wouldn’t happen, not when it was this close to Christmas and it seemed that every other day there was a Christmas event to be attended. 
When Pedro Diaz continuously threw his rubber at you in Spanish class, you ignored him. When Maria Santiago called you a freak in gym class because you could run the 3km, you ignored her. But when Diego Cruz said your Mami and mama were going to hell, you lost it. 
You weren’t dumb, everyone around you had talked about what it was like for them being gay, the good, the bad, the ugly. You heard it all, but the stories were from when they were kids, not from now. Now is supposed to be more welcoming, more accepting, but people like Diego and his parents exist. 
Alexia, Jenni and Olga had all received the same phone call. There had been an incident at school and they were needed as soon as possible. Obviously Jenni wasn’t able to make it, but both Olga and Alexia raced there. 
Unfortunately or fortunately, depending on how you looked at it, your Mami had bought two of her younger teammates. She was supposed to take Vicky and Jana home after they got to the training centre but she didn’t have time and they didn’t mind. 
Alexia and Olga arrived at the office at the same time. You were sitting there, hair a mess, a soon to be black eye and a bite mark on your arm. 
“Mari? What happened?” Alexia crouched down in front of you, hands on your knees. Just as you were about to reply, Diego and his parents walked out of the office. He looked a lot worse than you did. A blood nose that had dripped down onto his shirt, scratch’s around his jaw and neck, not one but two bruising eyes. 
“Ms Putellas, Ms Rios, please come in. Y/n, wait out here.” 
The tension in the office was palpable. Alexia was fuming, Olga was slightly confused but also mad, Diego’s parents look like they were ready to fight themselves. 
“There was an incident during afternoon break between your daughter and another student, Diego.” 
“An incident? That’s what you’re calling this? She’s sitting out there with a black eye, and a bite mark on her!” Alexia blew up. 
“Ale.” Olga put her hand on alexia’s forearm, trying to calm her down. 
“Diego was the instigator, however, your daughter threw him up against a locker, punching him repeatedly until she was pulled off him by two teachers.” The principal let it sink in for a moment before he continued on, “I am aware of a few issues that y/n has been facing, the bullying that other-“
“I’m sorry, bullying? You’re telling me my daughter, our daughter, has been getting bullied here and you haven’t been bothered to call one of us? That’s ridiculous!” Alexia said. 
“We were told by y/n that she had spoken to you. We have sent letters home, tried to call you and Jennifer. I must tell you, school isn’t the only place she’s been getting bullied. Y/n told the guidance councillor that at football she gets bullied too.“ 
When the words registered in Alexia’s head, she felt like she failed. Failed you as a mother, a person. You were getting bullied at school and football and she didn’t notice. 
“Where do we go from here?” Olga spoke up, noticing the battle her girlfriend was currently going through. 
“The school has a zero tolerance for violence, while Diego has been bullying her, and he will be dealt with, y/n was also apart of this fight so unfortunately I have no choice but to suspend her for the rest of the week.” 
“A suspension! No that’s not fair on her!” 
“I’m sorry. My hands are tied. I suggest you take her home, and have a conversation with her. We can’t do much more than what we are already doing. If you get anymore names, or it’s via social media, we can take further action but for now this is the only option.” 
When Alexia walked straight out of the office without saying anything to you, you knew you were in trouble. Olga gave you a sympathetic smile before motioning for you to get up. 
The car ride home was quiet. Your Mami hadn’t arrived back yet since she had to drop the girls off. 
“Do you want to tell me what happened?” 
“Not really.”
“Your Mami is going to ask, probably in a not nice way.” 
“She’ll be mad. Mad that I didn’t tell her, that I’m not strong like her.” 
“Mari, you’re strong. You’re so strong!” 
“No im not! Otherwise this wouldn’t have happened! I’m not like them, like you!” You yelled. Trying to get her to understand. “Mami and mama are world class athletes, you’re smart and pretty but I’m- I’m just me.” 
“You’re smart, you’re pretty. Sure they are world class athletes but it took them a while to get there, it doesn’t happen over night. You need to train-“
“I don’t want to train! I don’t want to play. I do it because of them Olga. Because of who they are. Everybody tells me how different I am, how I won’t be as good or amount to them. I just want to be enough!”
Olga pulled you into a hug, holding you tightly as you cried into her. Alexia could be obvious to some things, and this was clearly one of those things. 
After a while she coaxed you out of the hug, putting her hands on your cheeks and wiping away the tears, “can you tell me what he said to you? I know you, and I know you wouldn’t just hit someone for no reason.” 
“Him and his friends say stuff all the time. I don’t usually respond, and today I didn’t. I guess it just made him angrier. He said.” You took a deep breath, knowing that it would hurt Olga’s feelings as much as it hurt yours, “he said you, Mami and mama were going to hell because you were filthy lesbians, he said something else and so did all his friends. I ignored him and when I went past he pulled my ponytail. I just lost it.” 
You heard Olga have a sharp inhale of breath and then pull you towards the couch. For a while you both just sat there, Oga never letting up on the hold she had. When the front door sounded from Alexia getting home, Olga pulled you up and told you to go shower, needing to have a conversation with alexia. 
“Amor? Mari? I’m back.” Alexia kicked her shoes off, throwing her keys into the bowl. She knew a conversation was needed but to be honest, she didn’t have the energy. 
“Ale.” Olga all but threw herself into her girlfriend’s arms. 
“Woah, what happened?” 
“They say horrible things to her ale and she doesn’t even do anything.” 
“What are you talking about?” 
“She told me all about it. Everything they say at football, at school, everything.” 
Alexia pulled Olga through to her room, wanting to know everything that was said. It took a while for alexia to understand why Olga was upset but once she did, she was equally upset. 
You had showered, thrown your clothes in the hamper and unpacked your bag. You looked towards your mami and Olga’s room for what felt like the hundredth time in the last hour. You knew what you did was wrong, incredibly wrong but after spending the last year being constantly picked on, it got to you. 
It was dark by the time they emerged from their room. Both in different clothes and with damp hair. 
“I’m going to order dinner.” Olga said as she headed toward the kitchen. 
“Marquita, I need to talk to you.” You nodded, tucking your legs into your chest, scared about the outcome of what is to come. “Olga told me what you said. Do you have anything to add?” 
“I’m sorry?”
“You’re sorry?” 
“Yeah I’m sorry. I thought, I thought I could handle it, that I was strong enough like you and mama but when he pulled my hair I just got so angry. They always say things about you and mama but this time they were talking about Olga too.”
“Olga also said you didn’t like football, why don’t you tell me? Or mama? We wouldn’t have forced you to play.” 
“Because you’re the Alexia Putellas. Imagine what people would say and think if I didn’t play.” 
“I don’t care about what people think or say, what I care about is your happiness, you aren’t happy at school or at football. I’ve spoken to your mama, we will change your school and remove you from football.” 
“Are you mad at me?” 
“No! I’m sad for you, I’m sad you didn’t tell me what was going on, I’m mad at those boys and their parents, and at the principal.” 
“I was embarrassed. You and mama are able to ignore everything negative people say and I thought I could do the same.” 
“But we can’t.” You gave her a confused look, “since the World Cup, mama has been getting extra mean comments and messages on social media, I have too but not to the same extent. It affects her, it affects me, Olga gets them too. The way we get through it is because we know they are wrong. If two girls want to love each then they can, if two boys want to they can, a boy and a girl? They can. If Jenni and I want to have a family, we can and we did. If Olga and I want too, we can. No one is allowed to tell you or anyone else who they can and can’t love.” 
“You and Olga are going to have a baby?” 
“That’s all you got out of that?” Alexia laughed, “maybe, do you want a baby brother or sister?” 
You launched yourself at your mami, “yes! Both! Twins!” 
You were grateful for Olga, the act of telling you mami what had happened seemed like a ginormous task, she made it easier. The more you thought about it, Olga made a lot of things easier. When she was home things ran smoothly, but when she was gone it was like a missing puzzle piece. 
As the night drew to a close, you had to call your mama in Mexico. Mami had already told her everything that had happened, so when you two spoke over FaceTime she promised she also wasn’t mad, when the next school holidays were on, you’d fly to Mexico and spend the week with her. 
Over the course of the winter break, you and Olga were able to spend more time together. She shared her life story, including the times as a rowdy teenager. She took you shopping for your new school uniform and even bought your first set of makeup. 
While you were sad to be leaving the friends you had made, you were glad to be in a new school, a school where you would hopefully be okay.

Main Masterlist | Pedro Pascal Characters Masterlist
Tumblr media
“We shouldn’t be doing this here…”
“No one’s gonna hear us, cariño.”
Javi pressed his lips to yours in a searing kiss, his wandering hands groping the curve of your ass over the black pencil skirt you were wearing. The file room of the department wasn’t an ideal place to be making out with your fellow employee, a place where anyone could walk in, but you had trusted him to lock the door behind him before he had you pinned against the back wall, hidden by shelves of boxes. Your only fear now was that someone heard you, because if there’s one thing you had learnt very quickly, it was that he knew how to make you scream.
“They could,” you mumbled against his lips.
His mouth moved along your jaw, nipping at your skin and drifting down to your neck. “They’re only going to hear us if you-”
A sharp cry escaped your lips as he sucked at your pulse point, his hand coming up over your mouth as he chuckled mischievously against your throat. He pulled back slightly, grinning as he looked down at you and saw you glaring up at him. He pulled his hand away, softly pecking your lips once, twice.
“Sorry,” he smirked. “Couldn’t resist.”
“Fuck you, Peña,” you snapped.
“I’m counting on it, baby.”
He guffawed as you rolled your eyes, but you both knew that you weren’t really angry. You pushed him away gently as you feigned annoyance, just another part of the foreplay between you. Fixing the buttons on your blouse, you kept your gaze on him as you adjusted your clothes to make sure it didn’t look like you were just making out with one of your superiors. The last thing you needed were people talking about the ambassador’s secretary messing around with one of his trusted DEA agents.
“You’re going to be late for the meeting,” you reminded him.
“Am I going to see you there?” he asked, his hands resting on your shoulders.
“I could slip in to drop a fax in front of Crosby, if you wanted me to,” you replied, already contemplating it.
“Wouldn’t mind having something nice to look at,” he added, glancing down at your cleavage with a smirk.
You rolled your eyes, playfully. “I’ll see what I can do.”
You cupped his strong jaw in your hand as you admired his features, pushing up on your toes slightly to kiss him once more, before he reluctantly stepped away from you. Your eyes wandered down his frame and took in the salmon pink shirt he was wearing with dark blue jeans, a dreamy sigh escaping you as he turned and you saw the way the denim accentuated his pert ass and thighs. You leaned back against the wall as he gave you one last look, opening the door to the archive room and stepping out into the hallway, the door clicking shut behind him. He always left before you wherever you were meeting in secret, you giving him a few minutes headstart before you followed in his footsteps.
It had been a few months since the both of you had started hooking up. It all began with you putting in a good word for him with Crosby when he arrived late to work, the excuse being that he had a flat tire. He told you he owed you one and when you asked him specifically what was in it for you, he took you out for a drink after work. That drink turned into coffee and a cigarette outside the building during your lunch break the next day, and later that night when everyone but you had gone home, it turned into him bending you over your desk and ruining you for any other man moving forward. After that night, it was empty offices or secluded corners away from wandering eyes and prying ears, and even his apartment when you both needed that blissful release without holding back.
It was those nights at his apartment that gave you the hope that this thing between you was more than sex. The way Javi touched you in the comfort of his own space was completely different to the way he touched in those secret moments. It was less “desperate to have you before you were caught” and more “desperate to see you fall apart no matter how long it takes”. He quickly discovered it didn’t take long at all. You could see it every time he looked at you that there was something more between you, but there were days that your doubts crept in and fear reared its ugly head. You knew how you felt about him, and no matter how he showed he cared for you, called you sweet names, performed sweet gestures… you still weren’t entirely sure he felt the same way about you.
You weren’t a fool. You knew his reputation in the office, from the way the women talked about him and the way the men either praised him or disparaged him, which really depended on who had gotten on Javi’s bad side or not. He had never said more to you than he’d “made a lot of mistakes” and that he’d “been around the block a few times”, and you had been privy to his exploits in and out of the office from some of the other gossiping secretaries. You had no doubt that one or two of them were talking about themselves too, but none of that mattered to you. That was all before you had even met him, and you believed that he was being honest with you.
You really liked him. Hell, you were in love with him. Between the frenzied quickies during work hours, and the slower, passionate exchange between his sheets, there were tender moments that only you had witnessed. Him buying you a toothbrush to use when you stayed over, making coffee and pecking your lips before handing you the cup every single time, kissing the nape of your neck whenever he passed by you, lightly playing with your hair whenever you laid your head on his chest. Him reading snippets from the paper to you on a lazy Sunday morning, holding your hand as you walked side by side enjoying the late afternoon breeze, admiring the way the sun set just right over the city. It was in those moments that you felt the weight of your feelings for him, and he was the anchor that pinned you down and steadied you.
As you made your way out of the file room and down the hallway, you smiled at a few coworkers before you returned to your desk. You hunched over and flicked through the papers that were kept on the surface, picking up the page you were looking for. You walked down the opposite end of the hallway, softly opening the door to the conference room and closing it behind you. Walking over to the head of the table, you briefly made eye contact with Javi, the move going unnoticed by all the other agents at the table as they just blatantly gawked at you instead. He leaned back in his chair, his elbow leaning on the arm of it as he rubbed his fingers over his chin, watching you closely as you placed the fax down in front of Crosby. He thanked you and you turned on your heel, smiling to yourself as you felt the intensity of Javi’s gaze on you as you left the room.
A little while later, you were completely entrenched in your work when he passed by your desk in a flash, dropping a folded piece of paper right in front of your eyesight. You frowned as you lifted your head, watching his form retreat down the hallway and disappear around the corner, but not before catching a glimpse of him in the navy blue DEA jacket. That was your favorite piece of clothing on him, and for whatever reason, it never ceased to drive you crazy whenever he wore it. You both never complained about what would ensue after every time he’s worn it around you.
You opened the folded note, your eyes scanning over the words before you scrunched up the paper and threw it in the small trash can under your desk. You stood up and walked down the hall, your heels clacking against the linoleum floors as you made your way outside the building. As per his instructions, you meet him in your usual place, behind the building and away from security cameras. He was leaning back against the wall, his left knee bent and the bottom of his shoe also pressed against the brick. He stood up straight as you approached, pulling the cigarette away from his lips and blowing out the smoke, his eyebrows furrowed as you stood in front of him.
“You know what this jacket does to me,” you whispered, grabbing the lapels and pulling him a little closer as you stared up into his eyes. “I don’t think we have enough time for me to show you, though.”
He smirked at the implications of your words, but it didn’t last long as he pursed his lips in thought. “I wish that was what I was calling you out here for, cariño.”
You leaned back, instantly knowing it was serious. “What’s going on, Javi?”
“I have to leave for Cali tomorrow morning,” he sighed heavily, throwing his cigarette on the ground and stubbing it out with the toe of his boot. “Early. Crosby wants me and some of the guys to follow some intel on Orejuela.”
“For how long?” you asked, frowning.
He wrapped his arms around your waist and dragged you in closer to him, shrugging his shoulders. “However long it takes. Probably a week or two, if we’re lucky and it’s not bad intel.”
A week or two. That would be the longest period of time the two of you would be apart since you started seeing each other. You didn’t need to say anything for him to realize that same fact, his brown eyes gazing into yours as you nodded slowly, processing what he just told you.
“It seems like a lot, but I’ll be back before you know it, baby,” he promised.
A sad smile pulled at the corners of your lips, your right forefinger tracing over the yellow lettering on his jacket. “Just be careful out there.”
A soft huff escaped him as he smirked, curling a finger under your chin and lifting it so your eyes met his again. “Always am, hermosa.”
Javi leaned down and kissed you softly, your arms wrapping around his neck as you pressed yourself further into him. The embrace deepened, but rather than it being frenzied or sensual, there was something more there. Something deeper and stronger than either of you had ever felt before. It had happened once, maybe. One night in particular, which had no major significance other than it being the first time you felt there was more to this relationship between you. You felt it that night, and you felt it right there in that moment with him, concealed from the rest of the building and your nosey coworkers.
All you could hope for was his safe return back home, because you didn’t want to live another minute without feeling that way again.
Tumblr media
A whole week had passed before you heard from Javi.
It wasn’t for lack of trying. You would call him and get no answer on his satellite phone or leave a voicemail on the hotel room one. He would try to respond but you had always been in bed by then and he would never want to disturb you, or you would be at work. You missed him more than you thought you would, with work not being enough of a distraction from the worry that wracked your whole body whenever he didn’t pick up. It was the worst feeling in the world and you prayed that you would get the reassurance that everything was fine soon.
A boring Wednesday night would be your unlikely salvation, as you occupied your time and distracted yourself from the knot in your stomach with menial tasks like doing the laundry. You sat at the edge of your bed, a pile of fresh and dried clothes on top of the covers in front you that you worked at folding mindlessly. Your favorite Fleetwood Mac record was playing softly in the background, your light humming the only other sound in the room.
Suddenly, the obnoxiously loud ring of the telephone on the nightstand made you jump out of your skin with a small squeak from your lips. You placed a hand over your heart as you calmed yourself down, before you reached over and picked up the receiver.
“Hello?”
“Hey, baby.”
“Javi!” you exclaimed, beaming widely.
“Fuck, it’s so good to hear your voice, cariño,” he breathed.
“Yours too,” you whispered, closing your eyes in relief. “I’ve been so scared, I-”
“I’m okay, querida,” he reassured you. “Don’t you worry about me.”
“It’s hard not to when you’re so far away from me,” you admitted, softly.
Javi sighed as he heard the waver in your voice as you spoke to him. He knew the best thing to do would be to not focus on the fear, so he didn’t.
“So, what’s your Wednesday night looking like?” he asked, changing the subject.
You knew what he was doing and honestly you were thankful for it. “Folding laundry. Sexy, right?”
“Very,” he replied, his voice low and husky.
You felt a shiver run down your back as you put down the shirt you were folding, holding the receiver tightly as you laid back against the pillows. A soft smile pulled at your lips as you heard the familiar click of Javi’s lighter, before you heard a faint puff of air.
“I miss you,” you murmured.
“Me too, cariño. You wouldn’t be leaving that room any time soon if I was there,” he stated, throwing his legs up on the coffee table as he leaned back on the sofa.
“Javi,” you giggled, shaking your head as you twirled the cord around with your finger. “You can’t say things like that to me when you’re not here.”
He smirked. “Why?”
“Well… because…” you trailed off, sighing as you thought against what you wanted to say.
“Because what, hermosa?” he asked, taking a drag from the cigarette between his fingers.
“Because,” you gulped, letting out a shuddered breath. “You can’t do anything about it.”
He chuckled softly, the sound teasing and almost sinister. “Who says I can’t?”
“I don’t-” you started but you heard him clear his throat and allowed him to continue.
“What’re you wearing?”
You gasped, your eyes widening slightly. You glanced down, looking at the khaki t-shirt of his that you had stolen, your legs bare as you only wore black lace panties underneath. You knew exactly where this was going to lead if you told him what you had on, and that sent a small current of arousal through you, spreading to every nerve in your body. You heard him suck in a breath as you mentioned your state of dress, and bit down on your lip. It turned you on that he was so turned on by you.
“What are you wearing?” you asked in return, hoping for the answer to be your favorite piece of clothing on him.
He chuckled, looking down at the DEA jacket he was in fact wearing. “You’re obsessed, querida.”
“Can’t help it,” you shrugged, smiling. “It’s really sexy.”
“Pretty sure that’s you,” he countered.
You hummed as a smile tugged at your lips, loving the way he could go from sensual to sensitive within a few seconds. It was statements like that which gave you the hope that he wanted more with you, too. You knew he cared for you, you could see it in his eyes and feel it in his touch every single day, but did he feel more than that? That was the only doubt you had about the two of you.
“Touch yourself, cariño,” he instructed, slowly unbuckling his belt. “Over the shirt, don’t even think about sliding that hand between your legs, not yet.”
“Javi,” you whined, softly.
“You’re going to listen to what I say, hermosa,” he warned. “Right?”
“Yeah” you said, nodding.
“Good,” he muttered, putting his cigarette out in the ashtray next to him before he unzipped his jeans. “Want you to use your hands and imagine they’re mine.”
Your hand grazed over the curve of your breast, the fabric catching over your nipples and causing a small moan to escape you. As much as you wanted to, you resisted letting your other hand move down between your thighs until Javi said that you could. You cupped the left, your thumb flicking over the hardened bud over the material, a whimper leaving you as you squeezed your legs together.
“Moaning for me already, huh?” he asked, smirking. He dropped a string of his saliva into his hand, slipping it into his boxers and took out of his cock, pumping slowly.
“Yes,” you whispered, closing your eyes as you licked your lips. “I wish you were here.”
“Fuck, me too, hermosa,” he groaned, moving his hand a little faster to work up the blood flow. “I’d have you up against the wall as soon as you open the fucking door.”
You hummed, groping yourself a little harder. “Javi, please. I want-”
“I know what you want, baby,” he interjected, slowing his movement down slightly. “Just a little longer. Squeeze those gorgeous tits of yours for me, want you to pull your shirt up and pinch your nipples…”
You shifted on the bed and arched your back, reaching down to pull your shirt up and expose your nipples to the cool breeze coming in from the open window. Your fingers skimmed over your warm skin and over your left breast, a soft sigh leaving your lips as you rolled the nipple between your thumb and forefinger. Your sigh turned into a wanton moan as you gripped the phone receiver tighter.
“You sound so beautiful, cariño,” he breathed, his gaze falling down to his hand as he began to pump a little harder again. “You’re already making me so hard, it’s ridiculous.”
“Javi,” you moaned, biting your lip to keep control of yourself. “Tell me, tell me what you’d do, please.”
His eyes squeezed shut as he heard the desperation in your voice, and he knew he needed to slow things down before it was over before it really even began. “Fuck, hermosa, I’d… kiss your breasts and lick your nipples. I’d roll them between my fingers to get them hard, like you are right now.”
“M-More,” you gasped. You could feel your arousal growing between your legs, just from your ministrations and his voice.
“I’d love to see you right now. See you teasing yourself, see your hand move down your beautiful body to your pussy…” he trailed off, hoping you understood your next instruction, his own pleasure building as he stroked himself.
You breathed deep, your hand skimming over your stomach and down to your panties, pushing them down your thighs. You wiggled slightly to get them past your knees before kicking them off and letting your hand slide between your thighs. Your fingers moved over your mound, dipping in between your folds, feeling the wetness there.
“Javi,” you moaned, softly. “I’m…”
Javi felt the way his cock twitched as he heard you say his name. It always drove him absolutely crazy the way it fell from your lips, and he wished more than anything that he could see you in that moment. 
“You what, cariño? Talk to me.” His voice was low and gravelly, turning you on even more.
“I’m so wet,” you gasped.
“Fuck,” he breathed out. “So wet just for me, aren’t you?”
“Yes, only you, Javi,” you whimpered.
“Good girl,” he complimented. “Rub your clit, baby…”
Your fingers continued to run through your folds before they drifted up, moving over your clit in slow, teasing circles. A sharp breath escaped you as you felt a pleasured sensation radiate through your whole body, feeling it from the tips of your toes right to your head. Javi smirked as you heard you, trying to imagine you on the bed as he talked to you. He groaned as he worked his hand over his dick, a little faster and firmer, just the way you always did with him.
“Keep touching yourself for me, gorgeous. Move those fingers inside you. Tell me how it feels” he ordered.
You moved your fingers to your entrance, inserting one first, your walls contracting around the intrusion to allow another, pumping them in and out. You rubbed the pads of your fingers against the slick surface, moaning as the pleasure pulsed through you. You were about to lose yourself in it all, completely overwhelmed by the bliss you were feeling in that moment until you heard a faint grunt from him, the buckle of his belt clinking slightly.
“It feels so good. I… I wish they were your fingers inside me,” you moaned loudly, writhing on the bed.
“Me too, hermosa. Imagine it’s my fingers fucking you, making you feel so good,” he said, closing his eyes, imagining it himself.
“You’re touching yourself, too aren’t you, baby?” you asked, biting her lip.
“Yeah,” he groaned, continuing to fist his hard length.
“I bet you wish it was my hand, don’t you?” you added.
“Fuck, yeah I do, querida. Wish it was, fuck, wish it was your tight little pussy wrapped around my cock, squeezing around me as you take me in,” he grunted, gripping himself a little tighter.
You slid your fingers back and forth, the wet squelch of your pussy reaching your ear and making you work them inside a little faster, knowing you weren’t going to last much longer.
“Oh, Javi,” you shrieked. “Oh fuck, you’d feel so good inside me… filling me up, making me feel so full.”
Javi threw his head back, hitting the back of the couch as his jaw clenched hearing your words. If only you knew how they affected him to the point of wanting to do exactly that, to fill you up, make you feel full. He knew he had to hold back on that revelation, though, for now at least. His hand picked up the pace, chasing the impending release. He knew you were close too, judging by how loud you were getting, which was just another thing he liked about you. If you were in a state of complete bliss, you made it known at the highest decibel possible.
“You’re close, aren’t you, querida?” he panted, squeezing his eyes shut. “I can hear it in your voice, fuck, I wanna hear you cum for me.”
“Yes, oh fuck, yes I’m so close,” you whimpered, arching your back as you sank your fingers deeper into your core. “Make me cum, Javi, please.”
“You sound so fucking beautiful, fucking yourself on your fingers,” he growled. “You’re gonna cum with me, hermosa. Wanna hear you scream my name when you soak your fingers.”
Your thumb moved over your clit, circling the bundle of nerves as you continued to thrust your fingers in and out of your wet heat, causing a string of high pitched moans to leave your lips. At that point, you didn’t care if your neighbors heard you, you didn’t care if they thought you were possibly being murdered inside your tiny apartment, you only cared about him. You only cared about the way he was making you feel, even from hundreds of miles away.
“Javi, oh my god! I-I’m gonna cum,” you shrieked, overwhelmed by what you were feeling.
“Do it, sweetheart. Make yourself cum on your fingers. Make yourself cum for me,” he groaned.
Your eyes shut tightly as you tossed your head to the side, the receiver falling from your hand as your fingers moved faster, harder until it finally became too much to bear. You let out a string of loud, rasping moans that mixed with pleasured calls of his name as the dam broke, your arousal coating your fingers as waves of euphoria crashed over you. Javi pumped his fist rapidly, your voice laced with pure ecstasy being his undoing even from over the phone, as he tightened his grip slightly and grunted your name one last time before he felt spurts of his seed cover his hand and exposed skin of his pelvis.
You both breathed heavily, hearing each other come down from your high over the phone. Javi smirked, chuckling to himself. You really were something to get him so worked up just from this, but it only made him miss you more. He took several deep breaths before he called your name, amused by your little hum and lack of any other response. You had melted into the sheets, completely blissed out as you shared up at the ceiling. Your hand fumbled over the covers and picked up the phone again, biting your lip as you tried to find the words.
He grinned, still hearing your heavy exhales. “You okay over there, cariño?”
“That… was…” You paused, gulping as you caught your breath. You giggled lightly, shaking your head. You had no words.
“That was fucking hot,” he stated, as he reached for tissues to clean himself up.
You hummed, still running your fingers over your folds, slowly. “Yeah, it was.”
“You’re welcome,” he said, a cocky grin on his face.
You laughed, shaking her head. “I’ve… I’ve never done that before. Over the phone, I mean.”
“Coulda fooled me, hermosa,” he smirked. He needed to stop thinking about it, knowing it would get him hard all over again.
“I guess when it comes to you… I just feel-” you shrugged, struggling to find the words to tell him what he made you feel.
You rolled onto your side, the phone receiver resting between your face and the pillow. You knew what you wanted to say, but it worried you to think he might not feel the same way and scare him off. So you said the next best thing, that was equally true.
“I feel safe with you, Javi.”
Javi zipped up his jeans before he sat up, placing his feet back on the floor. His heart thumped rapidly in his chest as his fist tightened around the phone. His jaw clenched as he felt his words cut through him in an unexpected way. He had always considered his job a way of keeping people safe, that if you put away the bad guys then that’s what you were doing - protecting people. In the last few years, however, he felt there was a disillusionment that had started to set in. He had realized that no matter what he did, no matter how many assholes he put away, there was always going to be someone else to take the helm, another cartel to add to the drug war. So lately, he felt like he couldn’t keep anyone safe as Agent Javier Peña.
But you weren’t talking about Agent Peña. You were talking about Javi. Regular Javi was who you felt safe with. Regular Javi, from Laredo, Texas with an aging father waiting for him to come home for good. A place he hoped to bring you back to someday soon. It was funny how much he had wanted to leave that place as a younger man, and now with you in his life, he couldn’t wait to return.
“I’ll always keep you safe, querida,” he promised, his voice a low husk. “Always.”
His life had always been full of fear, loss, heartache. It was only when he met you that he found out there was so much more to experience, so much more to look forward to. You brought a light into the darkness he had become too accustomed to, and had given him the same kind of safety he had promised you. He had no need to fear who he was and what he was capable of anymore, because you believed he was better than that.
You made him want to be a better man.
You felt butterflies in your stomach as your heart swelled with unbridled joy for the first time in a long time as his words sunk in. You didn’t need anything else from him at that moment, because you knew whatever was next in your relationship would happen eventually, when you were both ready for it.
“I’ll see you soon,” you said, a hopeful lilt in your tone.
“Yeah,” he breathed, a small smile pulling at his lips. “Sweet dreams, baby.”
“Goodnight, handsome.”
Tumblr media
By the time Saturday rolled around, you were completely exhausted from work but in better spirits after your little call with Javi on Wednesday. As much as you missed him, and you did terribly, you continued to distract yourself with your normal, mundane routine which had proved to be a good idea. You had made a list of groceries and gone to the store, ready to cook up a storm because it wasn’t often you got to do something more elaborate rather than quick and easy.
As the late afternoon sun set over Medellín, you pulled your car into the parking lot of your apartment complex and retrieved the two brown bags from the backseat. Taking the stairs up to the entrance, you smiled as one of your neighbors recognized you as they came out, holding the door open for you. You made your way up two flights, huffing slightly as you got to your floor and walked to your door. Placing one of the bags down on the floor, you reached into your purse to find your keys, only for the door to suddenly open and make your heart leap out of your chest.
“Hey, baby.”
You clutched a hand over your chest to calm yourself as your eyes widened, seeing Javi standing in front of you, leaning against the door frame. He was wearing that navy blue shirt that you loved on him, tucked into his signature blue jeans. You beamed at him as he took the bags from you, smirking as he put them down near the door and instantly pulled you into his arms, pressing a searing kiss to your lips. Your arms wrapped around his neck as his slipped around your waist, giggling as his mustache tickled under your nose. Pulling away slightly, he pecked your lips a few times before he looked deep into your eyes.
“What’re you doing here?” you asked, incredulously. “I thought you were going to be gone for another week.”
“Well, the intel turned out to be a bust, so I came home early,” he replied, shrugging his shoulders as he linked his hands over the slope of your back.
“I’m sorry, baby,” you sighed, lightly stroking his hair at the back of his head.
He shook his head, pulling you in closer. “We’ll get them. I can feel we’re close.”
You nodded, slowly as you leaned in and pressed your lips to his softly. “How did you get in here anyway?”
“Didn’t take long to convince your landlords of who I was,” he explained, chuckling lightly. “They let me in.”
“Mrs. Alvarez has been trying to set me up with men for years, so she’s probably just really happy I met someone,” you quipped.
He rolled his eyes playfully as he walked you backwards, pressing you up against the wall. You stared up at him, biting your lip as his hands slid under the hem of your t-shirt causing you to shiver from his touch. He bent down, teasing your lips with his, slowly drifting down and nipping along the length of your neck.
“Javi,” you choked out, laughing slightly. “What’re you-”
“Told you I’d have you up against the wall as soon as I got home,” he recalled.
“But I have groceries,” you countered, glancing down at the bags. “I wanna cook for you now.”
He shook his head, leaning his forehead against yours. “You can do that tomorrow if you want, but right now I’ve got a week of being away to make up for.”
You bit back a moan as you held his gaze, letting him lead you through your apartment. He pressed you up against the doorframe of your room, your lips locked in a rough, passionate exchange as your hands tugged at his shirt to pull him as close as possible. A wanton moan escaped you as his mouth moved down to your neck, leaving love bites along your skin.
“Might not be that easy,” you muttered into his ear. “I think you need to woo me first.”
He stopped his ministrations, gazing up at you with that delectable smirk of his. “Oh, I already got plans for that, cariño.”
He tipped his chin towards the small, round dining table over your shoulder which caused you to glance behind. You spotted the bottle wine, two wine glasses and a candle waiting to be lit on the surface, making you smile brightly as you turned back to him.
“We can order from that place you like down the street so I don’t kill you with my cooking,” he jested, pulling back a little to look at you properly. “And uh… there’s something I need to say which I couldn’t over the phone. Just felt too important.”
You frowned, feeling your heart beating rapidly. “What is it?”
“I love you.”
The words fell out of his perfect lips as simply as breathing. You felt tears well up and blur your sight as you gazed at him, breathing deeply as you let those words sink in. Even the way he looked at you, brown eyes filled with the sincerity of his confession, made you realize that there was never any reason to doubt how he felt about you. It had always been there under the surface, waiting to breach the barrier of fear that came with his job.
He took your hands in his and leaned down, kissing your knuckles before leading you over to the table. He picked up the corkscrew, twisting it to open the bottle, winking at you as it popped and making you giggle. He poured the wine into two glasses before handing you one, clinking his glass against yours before he took a sip. You didn’t, looking at him and taking in his every move. He noticed you staring, a smirk playing at his lips as he put his glass down.
“I love you, too,” you whispered, your eyes never leaving his.
You beamed as you finally pressed the rim of the glass to your lips, your sight landing on something hanging over one of the dining chairs. Your eyes focused over the glass on the yellow letters against the dark blue fabric, feeling a heat take over your body that certainly didn’t come from one sip of wine. Gulping the liquid down, you held the glass as you took his hand with your free one, and dragged him away from the table. He frowned, not sure what you were trying to convey until you stopped, picked up his DEA jacket and pressed it against his chest. He grinned as he looked down at you, holding it tight.
“We can eat later,” you said, turning and leading the way into your bedroom.
“Don’t have to tell me twice, hermosa.”
Javi chuckled as he hooked two fingers into the collar of the jacket and swung it over his shoulder, picking up his wine glass in the other hand as he followed you. You kept him on his toes, something that he loved about you just as much as your amazing capacity to see him for who he is and not judge him. You saw all of it, and knew he was capable of more than he gave himself credit for. You saw all his flaws, and loved him in spite of that, which he never thought would be possible. Despite all the horrors of his job, he had found something good. Something real.
And that was one thing he knew he could count on above everything else.

Request translation: Hello, I wanted a part 2 of "incurable romantic", but now to striker, verosika, andrealphus and vassago. Thanks
Headcanons Hopeless romantic
🦚 Andrealphus x Reader ❄️
Andrealphus was hardly a romantic. He was cunning, he did what was beneficial to him, even if it meant doing something cruel. Therefore, the fact that the two of you were together seemed fantastic to everyone who knew him well enough. You could easily be called a dreamer. You were a hopeless romantic, and it would seem that Andrealphus was absolutely not the right partner for you. But for a reason known only to you, you were together and you were really in love with him, which only surprised others more
You often visited him, and despite the fact that there was a lot of ice in his mansion, you were never cold there. Andrealphus was softer with you than with everyone else, even than with his own sister. You always enjoyed drinking tea with him, he arranged a whole garden with ice flowers in the garden especially for you, which did not differ from the real ones. He always took you to the most beautiful and exquisite places, even though you told him it wasn't necessary
One day you honestly told him that you didn't really need expensive gifts or luxurious places to date. You would be happy even if you were just walking in an ordinary park in the city or somewhere else, because the most important thing was that you were with him. He liked it when you said that, but he didn't deny that he wasn't going to do something like that. Since you were in a relationship, it meant that he was going to arrange for you the best dates you've ever been on
He kept arranging the best dates for you that you could ever imagine and wasn't going to change that. You were happy with him, no matter where you were, and he was happy about it. Your relationship didn't have any secret purpose, he just felt happy around you and didn't want to change that
🦜 Vassago x Reader ⭐️
Vassago and you really were the perfect couple. He was sincere, kind, honest and romantic. You were dreamy, no less romantic than he was, and sincere. It would seem that your relationship was perfect. You often went out together, he arranged the most romantic dates for you, which you happily spent together. You didn't even have to visit any luxurious or expensive places to have a good time together. You were happy no matter where you went together, and Vassago always tried to make you feel comfortable no matter what
He often complimented you in Spanish and called you various cute nicknames in Spanish. You didn't know what exactly he was saying, but you knew he wouldn't say something rude or unpleasant. Vassago would sometimes tell you about the meaning of different Spanish words, and every time he was very happy, he would start talking in Spanish, trying to show you as clearly as possible how happy you made him. He often showered you with kisses, causing blush and embarrassed laughter on your cheeks. He liked to give you as much of his love as possible and show it in a variety of ways
He knew that you didn't consider expensive gifts to be necessary, so he always tried to do something else, more romantic. He often sang romantic songs to you, sometimes in English and sometimes in Spanish. Some of his songs were improvised, but that didn't make them any worse. Much more important were the feelings he put into every line he sang to you, trying to convey to you how much he loved you. When he sang the song to you for the first time, you couldn't contain your emotions and started crying. Vassago was afraid that it was too much, but you hurried to hug him, muttering how much you loved him and how happy you are with him. What he did for you really meant a lot to you
Vassago was happy with you. He had never thought before that he would meet someone he would fall in love with so much and be ready to spend his whole life with. But that's exactly what you've become to him. You were happy together. You told him that you dreamed of the very love that came once and for all your life. And that's exactly how you felt about Vassago. Your words made him happy and he was glad that you once met
🐍 Striker x Reader 👢
You and Striker didn't advertise your relationship much. Neither you nor he had a goal to hide it, but you didn't get to go on dates together that often because of his work. But you loved your dates. You were a real hopeless romantic and cherished every date you had, no matter where it took place or what exactly you were doing. Striker knew this, but he still tried to arrange good dates for you whenever possible, because he didn't want your infrequent meetings to be overshadowed by a bad time
He knew perfectly well that you liked romantic things. That's why he tried to bring you various cute souvenirs from his trips. It wasn't necessarily something expensive. Most of the time, it was the pleasant little things that reminded him of you when he saw them. You kept each of his gifts, and when he saw it, he was surprised. You told him that these were important things to you, because he gave them to you. Your words made him grin and feel warm in his chest. You really appreciated every gift he gave you
He could come to you late at night after another job and you were always happy to see him. He was relaxing next to you and felt relaxed, and you just sat with him and smiled gently. Sometimes you chatted. During one of these conversations, you told him that you had always dreamed of various romantic dates, but it was much more important for you that Striker was with you. You were happy with him, and it didn't matter what you did or where you went. Even the fact that you saw each other less often than you would like because of his work couldn't upset you
Striker was sure that you could be much happier if you dated someone who was around you more often, but you thought otherwise. You loved him and you never tired of reminding him of it. You were happy with him and it made him happy. Striker was in love with you, and the fact that you were happy with him genuinely pleased him and made him happy
💋 Verosika Mayday x Reader 🎤
Verosika didn't talk about it openly, but she had nothing against romance. Especially if she was doing something romantic with you. You've been dating for a while now, and those who knew about it were surprised by her choice of partner. You were kind, considerate, and romantic. You were a hopeless romantic and tried your best to make her happy. You believed that it was love forever, like in fairy tales, and even though she didn't say it directly, sometimes she also had that impression, which made her wonder at herself
She loved taking you to beautiful places, both in Hell and in the human world, since she could go there. You've never been there before, so it was interesting for you to see everything. She liked to see your enthusiastic expression, because she was the one who made you look like that. She liked to see such emotions on your face and she tried to make you happy as often as possible, at least while she was with you
Sometimes she couldn't come to your dates even if she had planned them herself. Her plans might have changed dramatically, but you were never angry with her. You told her that you didn't care how often you went on dates, you didn't care where you went. It was enough for you that she was by your side. You really used to dream about romantic dates. You dreamed of having dinner under the stars, of beautiful bouquets of flowers, but when you started dating, you realized that it wasn't so important. It was much more important that you spent your time with her, with the one you love, and it meant much more than dating
She was still surprised that you chose her, but Verosika was happy. She liked the fact that despite all the bad things that happened in Hell, you continued to believe in love and Verosika was glad that this faith was still with you. That faith was a part of you, and she liked the way you were. She loved seeing your smile and your faith in her. She was happy with you, and when she saw you, she saw that you were happy with her, too

"I'm sick of all this, Natalie," Y/N declared, throwing her phone on the sofa. Her roommate diverted her gaze from the TV to her. "It's the fourth guy that ghosted me after I ask him out."
"Become a lesbian," said Natalie, turning her attention back to the movie.
Y/N let out a sigh. "I should. I'm tired of all men being assholes and manipulators."
She grimaced, thinking that maybe the problem wasn't men but her. She had studied Art History and had been the best in her class. Now, at 28, she was sharing an apartment and teaching preteens who called her 'ma'am.' Was she wasting her life?
"I need a change," she said to herself.
"The smell goes away with a shower, don't worry." Natalie looked at her, wrinkling her nose.
"No, damn it. A change in my routine," she explained. Nevertheless, she took a sniff at her armpit, regretting it. She'd shower later. "I need to get out of here."
She stood up, grabbed her phone, and headed to her room.
"Hey? And where are you going, if I may ask?" said Natalie, following her.
"Anywhere!" Y/N shrugged. She drank a glass of water and took out a couple of pieces of clothing. "I need to change the scenery as soon as possible, I'm stuck."
She pulled a small suitcase from her closet while her roommate rolled her eyes.
"Y/N, you can't just leave suddenly. Don't you have classes tomorrow?"
Y/N paused for a moment and then shrugged again. "I'll ask for the day off. The week, actually."
"The week!" exclaimed Natalie. Y/N was already looking at flights on her phone when Natalie covered her screen. "Y/N, you don't have the financial or mental stability for this!"
Y/N swatted Natalie's hand away to see her phone screen.
"Madrid is very cheap this time of year," she said, with a small smile.
"But you don't even speak Spanish!"
Tumblr media
Y/N boarded a plane to Madrid with the idea of not talking to any men that week. This trip was for her, to reconnect with herself, the Y/N she had lost over the years.
She still didn't have a place to stay, but she would resolve that on the go. The journey from the airport to central Madrid was tedious; she didn't know how the metro worked and people ignored her like she was nothing. Frustrated, she sat in a café. She looked up things to do in Madrid on her phone, but soon the battery died, and she was sure she had forgotten her charger at the apartment.
She let out a long sigh and ran her hands over her face. As she opened her eyes, she heard a voice.
"Y/N?"
She looked up immediately, surprised that someone knew who she was in Madrid. When she met the gaze of the individual, she recognized him instantly.
"Carlos?"
She stood up immediately, greeting him. Was he a man? Yes but Carlos and she had gone to university together; they had been friends for several years. Probably best friends, though they never talked about it. He hadn't changed much; he looked older but in a positive way, with a more flattering haircut and surprisingly stronger.
"What are you doing here?" Carlos asked, leaning in for a short hug.
"On vacation," Y/N nodded. Running into him had instantly lifted her spirits.
"Damn, I haven't seen you in… six years?" Carlos tilted his head a bit.
"Since graduation, right?"
They both nodded; it had been quite a while. Long enough to realize they had lost contact too soon.
"I didn't expect to see you in Madrid," commented Carlos, with a smile.
"It was a last-minute decision," explained Y/N, wrinkling her nose a bit. She formed a smile. "I'm glad to see you, really. Do you want to sit for a bit?" she suggested, pointing to the empty chair.
"I'd love to," Carlos accepted the invitation immediately, sitting down.
A waiter approached, and Carlos ordered a coffee to accompany Y/N's.
"Well, tell me, what have you been up to all these years?" Carlos asked, crossing one leg.
Y/N told him a bit of everything, very sweetened. That she was teaching Geography and History at a public school, that her family was fine, and they reminisced about the time Carlos practically crashed her Christmas party because Carlos Sainz Senior was mad at him for his grades and that she was happy living in her city.
Carlos told her that he now worked at his father's company as an executive.
"Oh, I thought you’d be doing something related to what we studied," Y/N pressed her lips a bit, somewhat disappointed that Carlos hadn't continued doing what they both loved.
"I would have loved to… but there were very few job opportunities. And I didn't want to be a teacher, so I played it safe," admitted Carlos, shrugging a bit. For a moment, he thought Y/N would judge him for it, but her sweet and calm expression told him otherwise.
"Understandable not wanting to be a teacher," agreed Y/N, before sipping her coffee.
"Is it tough?" Carlos mimicked her, lifting his cup too.
Y/N shook her head a bit. "I'm sure there are worse things. But having a twelve-year-old try to cut your hair because his dad is bald is rather curious."
Carlos almost choked on his coffee from the sudden laughter. "Really?" He tried to stifle the laughter as best as he could, but Y/N was already glaring at him.
"No, no. It's not funny, it happens every damn day," she nodded vigorously. Carlos let out a laugh that ended up being contagious for Y/N too.
The conversation continued for the rest of the afternoon. It was like going back to university for a few hours, a time she missed a lot. When they decided to get up from the table, they had finished four coffees and at least one glass of wine. It was even starting to get cold outside.
"Shall I walk you to your hotel?" Carlos asked with a smirk.
Y/N grimaced, remembering she still hadn't sorted that out. She bit the inside of her cheek, embarrassed. "I haven't booked a hotel room yet."
"Oh," he pursed his lips and quickly said, "You can stay at my place, I have a spare room."
Y/N, hearing him speak, was already shaking her head. "No, no, no. I don't want to bother you."
Carlos clicked his tongue, looking away for a moment.
"How are you going to bother me? Come on, bring your suitcase. My car is parked nearby."
Y/N was intrigued by Carlos's initiative but kept shaking her head.
"Really, it's not necessary, Carlos," Y/N extended her arms a bit for Carlos to return her suitcase, but he even moved it away from her hands. "I'll manage."
She said that last part to ease him a bit, but it only sounded like she needed more help.
"Y/N, I'm not going to leave you out on the street," Carlos put his hands on his hips and she let out a sigh. "That's not very gentlemanly of me."
"You were never a gentleman, you idiot," noted Y/N. Carlos smiled, knowing that if Y/N started to insult you, she was about to agree with you. "Alright, but just for one night. Then I'll find a hotel."
"Whatever you say, cariño," Carlos smiled triumphantly, and Y/N tried to hide her smile while he put her suitcase in the trunk.
His apartment was huge, truly huge. A dream kitchen, a large living room, and definitely more than one spare room. As they entered, a beautiful brown and white dog greeted them, heading straight for Carlos's legs.
"And who is this?" said Y/N, petting his head a bit, enough for the animal to focus all its attention on her. He sniffed Y/N's shoes and licked the hems of her pants.
"His name is Piñón," said Carlos with a smile, surprised that Piñón hadn't started barking because of a stranger's presence. "I adopted him almost after we graduated."
Y/N crouched, petting Piñón's neck and behind his ears. "Hi, Piñón. You're so pretty."
"I'll show you the room," Carlos said.
Y/N got up, giving Piñon one last pet. "Thank you, really. I feel like an abandoned cat, but thank you."
They both chuckled softly.
"It's nothing," Carlos said as they went to the room.
Y/N left her suitcase in a corner and turned to Carlos. "Do you have a charger?"
She felt like she was taking advantage of him too much, even if it was just for a charger, she felt bad.
"Of course, here," Carlos handed her the charger, their hands touched for a millisecond. She tried so hard not to feel anything. He kept a flirty smile. "Are you hungry?"
"Well, yes," Y/N nodded. "But give me a few minutes and I'll help you cook."
Y/N took a couple of things out of her suitcase and went back to the kitchen to help Carlos. They quickly cooked some pasta with burrata. Y/N noticed how Carlos would get close to her or brush his hands against hers casually.
While cutting some tomatoes, the knife slipped from Carlos’s hand. "Shit!" Carlos looked at the cut and put his finger in his mouth, letting out several whimpers.
"Did you cut yourself?" Y/N went over to him, Carlos took his finger out of his mouth, showing her a small cut. Y/N pursed her lips, remembering how dramatic he could be. "It's nothing, Carlos. It's barely bleeding."
Y/N cradled his hand, gently caressing his fingers almost unconsciously. The room went silent, Carlos looked into her eyes, he adored that look. Y/N lifted her eyes, connecting them with Carlos’s. He leaned toward her, listening to her breathing and matching his to it.
"Can I kiss you?"
The question hung in the air. Y/N held her breath. This was the opposite of what she wanted. She blinked and slightly opened her mouth. To Carlos, it felt like an eternity.
"I'm sorry," Y/N said in a faint voice. She looked at him with pity and Carlos stepped back, feeling more embarrassed than ever. "It's just… it's not the right time. I'm in a bit of a strange phase and things aren't going well for me, I don't want to mess things up for you." Y/N fidgeted with her rings as she said it.
"I understand," Carlos said, nodding slowly. "I shouldn't have asked you that, it was out of place."
"No, I should have told you before," she contradicted, with a grimace.
"Don't worry," he said. "It's just that…," Carlos hesitated a bit. "In college I had a huge crush on you and seeing you again brought everything back."
Y/N blinked, absorbing those words. She had always wondered why Carlos barely dated any girls during their time in college, it never crossed her mind it could be because of her.
"You had a crush on me?"
"You didn't know?"
"No…"
"Damn, we spent so much time together,"
"Because we were friends! That's what friends do!"
They both laughed and Carlos leaned against the counter, crossing his arms.
"So, you're not having a good time?" he inquired, with a calm look.
Y/N lowered her gaze. "I'm trying to sort out my life."
"I understand," he bit the inside of his cheek. "Anyway, if once you sort out your life you feel like going on a date, I haven't changed my number."
That felt so good in Y/N's chest, as if her heart expanded a little. She laughed like a fool, taking a few steps back.
"I'm going to go to sleep,"
"You're not having dinner with me?" Carlos extended his arms, with a sad look.
"Maybe tomorrow," Y/N turned around and smiled over her shoulder before disappearing down the hallway.
