Pretty Boy | s.r. x fem!reader

a/n: you know i had to do something for glasses reid i’d be crazy not to.

“oh, here comes your pretty boy. capital p and b.” derek’s smooth voice entered your shared office with jj. you didn’t bother asking who, even coyly, he would just say something along the line of “your other half, pretty girl.”

so you rolled your eyes while scanning over a case file, not bothering to direct attention to the man. “and why the need to visit my space?” a teasing reply, both knowing his visits to the double liaison office were once in a blue moon.

there was the sound of shuffling before derek responded, “cause i wanna see your reaction.” such a vague answer that it caused you to pick your head up with a quizzical look, “what are-“ and you stopped when spencer poked his head through the cracked doorway.

“hey y/n, i brought you…” you didn’t hear the rest of his sentence. eyes too focused on spencer’s face and the new wardrobe attire perched along his nose.

your heart beat fast in your ears and you could feel your body warm in temperature. it was like you were sent back in time to high school and spencer was the insanely smart, pretty student ripped right from your fantasies. you hoped you weren’t drooling at the sight.

“y/n? you alright?” spencer’s voice was much closer now and when you blinked he was directly in front of you with the back of his hand to your forehead and a frown on his face. derek’s chuckles filled the crowded space and you couldn’t even manage a side eye.

“you feel warm. you didn’t happen to catch anything from the last case, did you?” full concern with round puppy eyes shining behind black frames. your heart was the picture of a popsicle melting on a hot summer day.

you took a swallow, “not- not that i know of.” eyes honed onto a freckle placed to the left of spencer’s chin.

derek laughed again, “ease up on her, pretty boy.” he moved closer and stood behind spencer’s left shoulder, a smug expression painted on his chiseled face.

“i’m just checking if she’s physically well.” spencer’s voice got high from defending himself and his actions while glaring at derek.

derek then jerked his chin at your sheepish expression, “well it’s declining each second you’re in her space.” joking at the expense of your crush, but spencer took it the wrong way and pulled his arm back to his side. “sorry, right boundaries. should’ve asked first.”

you managed to bounce back when he started moving away, “no! no, it’s- derek’s just joking. i- i don’t mind you touching me.” and it took two, two seconds, for your mind to process your wording.

“oh this is a great morning.” derek howled then decided he’s seen enough, leaving both of you hot and pink cheeked.

squeezing your eyes shut you wished for the floor to swallow you hole and drag you away from this situation. “i’m- i’m sorry… about that. bit- bit scattered brained right now.” trying to play everything off.

“you- you sure you’re alright? i’m certain hotch will let you leave early.” spencer’s brows pinched in the middle turning his face into more of a pout. oh he has no idea the effect on you.

you smiled gentle at his worry, “i’m well, just been staring at potential cases too long, that’s all.” fingering at the edge of the manilla folder in your lap.

“also i like the new look,” circling a finger around your eyes to play charades with him than just mention the holy glasses. “they suit you nicely.” friendly but said with a hint of flirty.

spencer’s smiled widened and his cheeks turned from bubblegum pink to a rosie hue, oh how you wish to just cover him in thousands of kisses. “thanks. i ran out of contacts for the month so i’m stuck with these until then.” making it sound like an inconvenience, but oh how you were gonna suffering for a month of those handsome frames.

you turned your head away before you were caught staring for too long and saw a baby pink bag sitting beside your picture frames. you reached out to grab it then pulled it apart to see a sweet morning treat awaiting for your teeth to sink in. “did you bring this?” asking spencer since you then remember that he said something when arriving but you didn’t hear what.

spencer straightened up and happily beamed, “yeah! i was walking past that pastry shop you like and thought you’d enjoy something for all your hard work.” you both knew that was a straight lie since that pastry shop is an extra ten minutes out of either of yours work routes.

but you didn’t comment on it just looked spencer in the eye and said softly, “thank you, spence. you’re very sweet.” and with a sudden boldness you leaned forward to press a delicate kiss onto his right cheek.

pulling back you noticed spencer’s lips were slightly parted, he looked almost winded from the sudden action. you were gonna apologize if you over stepped but then jj entered her office with derek trailing behind.

“uh… hi.” she stopped two steps inside then saw the way you both fidgeted to appear normal. as if you were doing something you weren’t supposed… “hi, welcome.” “everything normal here.” you and spencer talked over each other.

“okay, not even gonna ask…” waving a folder about, “but i found a case and hotch approved so into the conference room for debriefing.” jj gave both of you a final stare then walked around derek to flee the scene.

“come on pretties, you can smooch later.” “derek!”

Jake knows how this goes. Bradley’s self destruction is going to backlash into him, but the man’s too stubborn, too familiar with resentment to let go. He’ll dig his claws in and Jake already feels the scars. So he extracts himself: untangles himself from the bedsheets and the way their legs always hit under the dinner table, starts clipping the ends of his emotional ties. Starts applying the antiseptic early.

WIP WEDNESDAY

The next couple of WIPs on my To Finish list...

*expanded Riley and Jack's goodbye scene from 3x14, because there was something more Riley wanted to say.

“You remember everything I taught you, y’hear me?”

Riley nods her head. “Always…," she says, her voice breaking. "I will.”

“You listen to your instincts," he tells her, his drawl thick with emotion. "You trust your gut, but most of all… Most of all... You lead with this right here..."

Jack gently taps two fingers against her chest, right over her heart as he whispers quietly.

"You lead with your heart, sweetheart," he whispers thickly. He raises his hand and cups her cheek and Riley leans into his touch. "Because y’got a huge one, and it’ll never steer you wrong.”

"Jack..." His name is as far as she gets before her voice breaks on a sob.

"And you watch out for that brother of your’s, yeah? You know how he can find trouble in an empty paper bag."

***

*and some future fic, retired Jack, domestic MacDalton.

Jack laughs. It’s a deep rumble that resonates up through Mac’s arms and vibrates throughout his entire body. His head is tipped back, eyes squeezed shut, the lines on his face crinkled deep as he continues to chuckle.

He is the most beautiful thing that Mac has ever seen, and Mac will gladly be the butt of as many jokes necessary if it means keeping that look on Jack’s face.

“I thought you were the brains of this operation,” Jack drawls, voice breathy from all his laughing. “You’re lucky you’re cute.”

A smile curls his lips, soft and fond, and the amount of love shining in his eyes as Jack gazes at him leaves Mac breathless.

Once again Mac is left to wonder what he ever did to deserve this man in his life.

Found today's word in a couple Macgyver WIPs.

We got some bedside vigil Mac. And what exactly put Jack in medical... 🤷 Your guess is as good as mine, lol.

"I promised the staff that I would behave myself if they let me stay in here beyond hours, let me come and go as I please." Like they could have stopped me, Mac thinks to himself. He lowers his voice to a conspiratory whisper, sharing a secret that only the two of them would understand and enjoy.

"That didn't stop me from collecting some doo-hickeys and thingamabobs, as you would call them, which were just had lying around. Okay... alright, yeah, maybe they weren't exactly just lying around," he admits, as if he and Jack are having an actual two-sided conversation and Jack had quirked an eyebrow at him, calling him out, again, on his habit of peeking through the drawers and cabinets of every room they're in, pocketing random bits and bobbles that he finds interesting.

"But I promise, I made sure they were all items that weren't needed for anything. And all I need are just a couple of servos, some bits of wire and I have enough to build us a pair of battle bots. Yeah? What do you think? May even be able to trick them out with some lightsabers. Well... not actual lightsabers, of course, because they don't exist. They're really just electronic--"

Mac stops. He studies Jack's lax face, watches his chest rise and fall, counts his breaths; deep, even, finally his own with just a nasal cannula for assistance.

And a tag to 3.14. That's been sitting at 6k words in a folder since 2020. 😬

It’s not that the two of them are never apart, quite the contrary. They do have separate lives, separate friends, interests that they each pursue individually and vacations they have taken alone.

But by unsaid agreement they have always stayed in touch, a quick daily call or even a short text. The latter over the years turning into a game between them. Jack’s text messages consisting of nothing but elaborate groupings of emoji’s that Mac must then decode in order to know what exactly his partner is up to.

Maybe them keeping in touch is just because of the nature of the business they are in, or their military and agent training; old habits dying hard, that need to always know where the other is. Or maybe it is just them. Whatever the reason neither of them have ever questioned it nor changed their habits.

This week’s word is…

✨ HABIT ✨

IMAGINE

ok but Yandere Loser x Idol darling

Yandere loser corners Idol! darling when they're outside gushing about how much they mean to him and how he has all of their merch, how he attends every since event and concert the hold and begging them to sign his forehead merch so that he can place it in his shrine.

And Idol! darling trying to keep their regal and elegant reputation and not completely punch the shit out of Yandere loser.

You smile at the man in front of you, leaning in to caress Erin's face, tipping it up to meet your eyes. You would have enjoyed the way his face flushed had it not been for the fact he stumbled upon you in the wrong place. "Oh, darling, of course I'd sign it for you, keep this meeting of ours a secret and I'll do more than just sign things for you." You murmured in his ear, giving him a wink before walking away. Erin had always prided himself on being able to control his desires, too bad his need for a certain idol reduced him to mutt for them.

twenty four, birthday boy | s.r. x fem!reader

“you look very handsome, birthday boy.”

spencer leaned his head back to see you standing beside his desk with your hands behind your back. dressed in a lavender short-sleeved button up paired with a simple black maxi skirt and your simple flats, a subtle smile pairing as your accessory, you looked radiant this morning.

“thank- thank you.” unconscious hand reaching up to mess with the giant birthday cake hat derek forced onto his head. it felt kinda nice to be treated like a kid on his birthday for once.

your eyes went up at the action then back to his face, “got you a present.” taking a small sage green wrapped box with a baby blue ribbon attached from behind your back, giving a tiny shake to it. fingers curled gently to hold the mystery gift outstretched.

“i tried to remember if you mentioned owning it or wanting to. i kept a receipt in cause though.” smile waving just a bit, it made his heart stutter a beat.

“i’d keep it anyway, it was from you.” his own smile twitching from nerves. his statement caused your smile to widen, cheeks scrunching up your eyes. “open it, spence.” you were the only one who calls him that.

finally grabbing the box, his slim fingers brushed over your painted nails before you pulled your arms away, tucking them back behind your back. spencer took his time peeling away the plastic wrapping and shiny bow, wanting to preserve the gift in its entirety. next came a cardboard box and once that was gone it revealed a cartoon figure.

“oh no way!” it was a bobble head figure of the fourth doctor. it was still inside the packaging and spencer was debating if he should keep it inside or take it out and proudly display it. then he noticed the small folded paper taped at the top.

“it’s just a small note slash birthday card.” speaking up after spencer went silent too long. he looked back towards you, “wanted it to be personal.” shrugging off the kind words and action.

slowly peeling the tape from the packaging, spencer set the gift aside so his full attention would be on the words you wrote from your heart. licking his lips then flipping open the small paper he was met with your cursive-print handwriting, he’s been able to understand your scribbled words after the first case.

happy birthday dr. spencer walter reid. yes i know your middle name and yes i got it off garcia, i wont tell though. it’s been a wonderful few months since you’ve joined the department and i couldn’t ask for a better new friend. (don’t tell pen, but you might be my number one now) to many more years together as a family. -love y/n l/n <3

a/n: @bringitonhomejohnb a wish has been granted

Hi, could i ask for some headcanons for Toby, Ej and Ben with a S/O who gets easily lost, like even getting lost in the most absurd places

(♡) Authors note; my first request LET'S GOOO 💪 I'm still not used to writing headcanons but I really want to, and I realized that I started quite blindly :') I should've made some character analysis or aus beforehand but oh well. I'll do it another time but for now, here you go <3 also not proofread so ignore any mistakes

TOBY;

- this man is the embodiment of attachment issues. It took a pretty long time for him to crack open his protective shell, and once he did he swore to never leave your side.

- I imagine this happening whenever you two are outside, which rarely happens. I mean...he finally found a lover, he won't risk them running away because let's be honest, he probably kidnapped you but that's another story.- you two were just taking a stroll in some area and then all of a sudden you're gone. Completely out of sight.

- low-key panics once he realizes that you're not beside him anymore.- will literally search the whole entire place for you, calling out your name multiple times. He doesn't care if some passerby hears him. He will find you.

- once he catches a mere glimpse of you, he's immediately running over. It's clear that he's upset, he really thought you took the chance to run away since he finally warmed up to the idea of going outside and not keeping you locked up in his stinky ass cabin (please get this man a proper home he really needs it)

- good luck convincing him that you just wandered off because he would not believe you. After a while he might let it go but best believe the little walk you two planned is cut short. He's taking you back to his place as soon as possible.

- it might take him some time to let you go outside again since he's still a little suspicious. And now he's even more clingy but hey, we're not complaining. Who wouldn't want Toby by their side 24/7?

EYELESS JACK;

-quite similar to Toby, this cannibalistic demon finally found someone who actually loves him (which he still doesn't get what you see in him) let's just say...he wouldn't be very happy about the situation.

-would also think you were running away from him. After the whole failed cult sacrifice thing and him losing his vision, his other senses are now heightened. He'd use that to his advantage to find you.

-which isn't too hard for him, you didn't wander far since he probably heard you as soon as you walked away.

-he isn't angry, just worried. He starts to look after you more often, always keeping an eye out Incase you get lost again (...he doesn't have eyes:3)

-it becomes a little thing where whenever you start to walk off, he's dragging you back by the collar of your shirt so you don't get lost again.

BEN;

-this isn't much of a problem for him, sure he'd be quite confused at first because where the fuck are you going?

-this little fucker probably finds it amusing, not even doing anything about it just to see you get lost.

-eventually guides you back to wherever you two were originally. Like I said, it isn't a problem for him and he won't panic like the others since he is literally a ghost...he could just teleport to you whenever.

-most of the time he drags it out to see you get scared once you realize you wandered off again and can't seem to find your way back but he'll still help you. Just after a long time because he's an asshole like that.

Chapters: 5/5 Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Word Count: 26,970

Fuck Stede. Fuck him and his stupid face. His stupid smiles. The way he keeps touching Ed’s shoulder, his arm, his wrist, so casually, so gently, like he doesn’t even notice. Fuck him for all the times and all the ways Ed has been so certain Stede feels the same way he does, and then bounced back the other direction, too fast for Ed to keep up.

The final installment of my episode 9 & 10 fix it fic is here! :) Thanks for reading everyone!

Snippet Saturday

Another few weeks and this WIP will be a year old. 😲😬 Written for last year's Rosie's Write along, prompts; back on the ranch & dumpster diving.

Mac snorts so hard at his childhood friend’s words he almost chokes on his beer. “Boz, that was—”

“Beautiful, man… pure gold. You speak truth my thespian friend,” Jack praises, dabbing at his eyes and clutching his chest, and Mac rolls his eyes at his best friend’s dramatics.

His best friend who is back home.

Back with their team. Back with their family.

“I was going to use a different word, big guy,” Mac retorts, one side of his mouth curling up.

Warmth spreads though his chest that has nothing to with the heat of the Los Angeles summer or the firepit that sits in front of him. He hasn’t stopped smiling ever since he walked out onto this very deck to a Hiya, Hoss. Miss me? coming from the shadows.

That was weeks ago, and Mac doesn’t think he’s blinked since, hasn’t let Jack out of his sight for fear of this all being a dream.

Mac knows that feeling is mutual. Jack has barely left their sight since his return. And on the rare occasion that he’s needed to separate from them, his return is marked by a gentle bump of a shoulder or the soft brush of his fingers against their arms.

Jack’s need for not only reassurance, but a physical reassurance tears at Mac’s heart every time.

Makes him wish he had fought harder, disobeyed orders, and found a way to be part of Jack’s strike team.

He’s grateful to Matty for altering their rotation to give them all time off, grateful to the other teams who have filled in to allow it. Grateful also for the time that Nick is able to take away from running the San Diego Crime Lab to spend the time with them also.
