"Y/N." You picked up Jungkook's call as you sat at your desk in your dorm room. You had been finishing up your bio homework until the interruption came blaring through on your headphones.
"Yes?"
"Can I nap in your room?"
"The fuck I look like? A hotel?" You snorted.
"Yeah, a 5 star at that with how good you take care of me." He tries to butter you up, causing you to roll your eyes.
"You're lucky I like you."
"Yesssssssss!" You hear him faintly exclaim on the other line. "Be there in a sec."
"You know my doors are always unlocked." Which, it was true. So many of your friends had decided to live off campus that you and your other bestfriend [and beloved suitemate] were probably the only few left on campus. And that meant people were constantly in your room, hanging out or using both of your rooms, [with permission] or the couches in the shared living room space of your suite as a place to nap. College, amirite? Why the fuck would you lose your parking spot to go back to your apartment when you have friends who lived right on campus? You weren't just good for smuggling free food from the cafeteria to your broke ass, struggling off-campus friends.
Sooner or later, you're greeted by a fluffy, black-haired Jungkook, looking like his shit must have air-dried with how wavy and voluminous it was. He swings your door open so aggressively that you jump a bit in your seat, swinging off your headphones like you weren't even expecting him. You watch as he flings himself onto your neatly made bed like he hasn't felt a bed in years.
"Ugh, yes." He moans as he belly flops onto your bed and stays in that position.
"When's your next class, you little baby?"
"In like an hour or so, I don't know." He says sleepily. "Wake me up, please?"
"Sure." You realize it's Wednesday, and he definitely has Ecology lab later at 3:00PM. You figured you'd wake him up by 2:30 just to give him enough time to groggily walk his ass back over to the science building.
You and Jungkook weren't really close before college. It was moreso that you knew of each other since high school because of mutual friends. You'd see him at parties and he'd see you, but it was never more than the casual hi and bye and small talk. Maybe the occasional comments on facebook pages and the likes on pictures on instagram. But foreel, other than that, that's as real as your friendship got for awhile. You didn't mind it though, you were good with your set of friends and he was good with his. A lot of your friends attended the same university as you two and then your groups intertwined even more.Â
But, it wasn't until the past couple of months or so where you both unexpectedly got really close - simply just by talking more and being around each other more. You both had similar interests and Jungkook wasn't the most vocal in his group, but with you, he seemed to talk endlessly. He loved comics and he loved raving to you about Marvel and DC superheroes. He loved to draw, and he'd draw you things every now and then - his most recent being you as a scientist superhero saving the world from overgrown malaria-infected mosquito monsters. It was the cutest thing you had ever seen, and you tacked it against your cork board near your desk. Then, small things like that turned to bringing you food or boba, being stuck at the hip where he'd only go to a certain place on campus if you were there; texting each other inside jokes and funny ass tweets all day turned to facetime sleepover calls and then late hangouts eventually turned to actual sleepovers in your bed, where he'd drape his arm around while you both slept but it never escalated into anything more than that in bed. Although he did fucking hate your medium-sized Olaf plushie that took shelter on your bed - he'd always hike it across the room and talk about how annoying he is and how he's always taking his spot. You never understood it, really.
And then soon, it turned to small displays of affection behind closed doors, where Jungkook would hold you close. Hold your hand if you two were in the room watching a show, or movie. Small kisses exchanged. Big kisses exchanged, making out sessions. But, that was literally it. Nothing else. No sex. No pressure. Lots of unspoken feelings, obviously, but you weren't gonna be the one to bring that up. Because you were comfortable, and if anything, you didn't wanna ruin what you guys already had going.
Like, is this a friends with benefits thing? Maybe? Maybe not? It was hard to label it because it's not like you both determined so, it kind of just fell together that way. And there was really no pressure to fuck every single time you got affectionate. It was cute, sweet. And no one really knew it was like that behind doors - possibly your suitemate Kass and her boyfriend, Jimin, but that's only because you shared the dorm suite with her. Jimin was also one of Jungkook's roommates and his really good friend, so whenever they had slept over on the same night, it was pure and utter chaos. But honestly, if Kass and Jimin hadn't been around you two much, they most certainly wouldn't have the idea.
Whatever it was, it was a comfortable closeness that you both experienced and appreciated. However, the both of you were afraid of discussing what this really was, afraid it'll ruin the dynamic. The atmosphere. Having to come to terms of what it might, or might not be. Neither of you can fully admit that you like the other. Although, it got hard. People did lightly tease you two because you both always looked for each other and were stuck by the hip out on campus.
Oh, well. Bottom line is that you liked your relationship where it was at, but it doesn't mean you haven't thought about the what if's. Jungkook was insanely attractive, and it's no lie that girls swarmed him left and right on campus, but he didn't give a shit [either he didn't give a shit or he was dumb as hell?]. Okay, rewind â to be fair, he would have a fling or two, flirt once or twice. He'd tell you so and so was cute and that they've hung out or texted, but that's it. He just wasn't necessarily looking for anything cause he too enjoyed where he was at with everything.
It doesn't take long before Sleeping Beauty is snoring face down on your bed, looking like Patrick Star with the way he's sprawled out. But, you continue to do your work until it was time to wake him. You gently shake him, his puppy eyes looking back at you after being face down all nap.
"Class time."
"No." He groans. "Can't I just stay here with you?"
"No, dude. Get to class." You chuckle. "You already skipped last week."
"Yeah, but this is a new week Y/N."
"Jungkook." You almost say in a scolding manner.
"Fiiiiiiine." He whines as he shoots up and hops off from your bed. "Are you going to our party on Friday?"
"I said I'd think about it right?"
"Yeah, like on Monday. It's Wednesday."
"And I'm still thinking about it." You snort, making him pout.
"Just come for a little bit."
"Why? You know parties aren't my thing and you'll be too drunk anyways. I'll end up wanting to go right the fuck back home as soon as I step outside."
"I'd like to be drunk and have you there. It'll be more fun!" He pouts as he holds your hand and swings it back and forth.
"I mean, to be completely honest, I'll probably end up going because of Kass anyways."
"Because of Kass." He rolls his eyes. "Oooookay. Not because of you, Jungkook, no." He says sarcastically, brows furrowed.
"Ew. You're such a fucking whiner. Leave." You laugh, throwing an empty water bottle at him.
"I'm kidding." He chuckles. "Wanna grab dinner with me after practice?"
"Sure. If you pay." He groans
"Fine. I'll see you later." He puckers up his lips to blow you a kiss, which you automatically reject by giving him a look before turning your attention back to your homework. You were hoping he'd offer to go to In-n-Out because you were craving that #2 with animal fries and a neapolitan shake, plus there was a Target in the same plaza that you wanted to drag him to for new pens and clearance sale shopping. And you wouldn't even warn him about it. He would tag along, no question.
Hoseok stands in front of the mirrors in the studio, pacing back and forth as your dance group learned a couple of 8-counts from this new piece he had been brewing up. Apparently, it was supposed to be a couples piece but he wasn't sure if he was going to keep it that way. He watched to see if this would be better as a group, or if he should stick to his original plans.
Your college dance group was a small group formed by people with pure, genuine interest and love for modern hip hop choreography. Hoseok was the dance lead, with Jimin being the back up lead. The group came together, taught each other pieces, taught workshops for those interested on campus and performed at the various talent shows and productions the school had throughout the year. It was just your group's way of showcasing your talents, something you all purely enjoyed, and it was nice to see the love and support given by the audiences.
"Okay, run that from the top one more time please. We'll take break after, swear." Hoseok chuckles and gives Jimin the cue to start the song back at the starting point. Jungkook makes a funny face at you as he huffs and puffs, trying to catch his breath from the last time you went through the counts.
"Ew." You giggle, slightly pushing him aside. Miguel's How Many Drinks begins to blast through the studio speakers, Jungkook doing his best to sing along and match his tone all while focusing on his steps. Once you're done going through the counts, the music continues to play, Jungkook twirling over to you just to singâ
"Cause I ain't leavin' aloneeee, I feel like I could be honest, babe." He spins to your other side. "We both know that we're grown, that's why I wanna knooooow - how many drinks will it take you to leave with meeeeEEeeeE?"
"You can give me all the drinks in the world and I swear I still wouldn't." You snort, making him frown and click his teeth.
"Too bad that's not really how you act when I ask to sleep over, though." Silence as you stick your tongue out at him. Cause, yeah. You really do tell him to sleep over without hesitation. You loved his company, you canât lie. "Yeah, fraudulent as hell. I never taught you that." He jokes.
"Shut up, Jungkookâ"
"Okay!" Hoseok says, clapping his hands. "This'll be a couple piece. I honestly think it'll work better that way, just like I envisioned it. I'll work with the couple to clean this up before the performance, but to whoever isn't casted for this, Jimin still has a piece to teach the rest of you, so don't feel discouraged!" Hoseok chuckles a bit, giving the rest of the group a small smile. "So with that being said - Y/N, Jungkook, I want you two to do this piece."
"Ouuuuuuuu." Jimin teases you from the sidelines, causing you to put up your middle finger.
"We wonât let you down, cap." Jungkook swings his arm around you.
"I'll teach you the rest of the piece next practice so we can start polishing it up and making it clean before the talent show."
"Sounds good with me." You flatly say, even though 100%, you're pretty excited for many reasons. One, you had been wanting to do a solo or couples piece for awhile, and two, your partner was Jungkook. Your best friend, your ride or die, the dude you've spent so much time with and gave your affection to behind closed doors. It made you giddy just thinking about it, even if you'd blatantly lie to his face later on when he'd tease you. And Jungkook felt the same. You missed the way he subtly bit on his bottom lip when you were named his partner, just so he wouldn't smile too big in front of you.
After practice, you egg him on enough to agree to take you to In-N-Out, without hinting at the plan you had drafted out in your head earlier. Â The plan that says you're gonna drag his ass to Target afterwards and he had no choice but to come along.
"Y/N, you liar." He groans. "You said you weren't gonna go to Target." He pouts as you follows behind you anyway.
"Kook, I literally just need to get one thing."
"What's the one thing that you couldn't get on your own time?"
"I don't know, I'll have to find out when we get in there." You giggled, causing him to groan again. "Plus, we're here already. Killing two birds with one stone."
"Ah shit, I suppose I can get some bottles for the party."
"Yeah, make yourself useful Jungkook."
"Yeah, make yourself useful Jungkook, aheh." He mocks your tone and does that really weird and ugly ass laugh that dudes always do when they try to mock girls, however, you ignore it because you've just stepped into Target and bitch, this was Disneyland to you. Heaven. Paradise.
"Hm, what are we drinking on Friday?" He says his text outloud as he follows you around the dollar section where you begin to pick up really unnecessary items that you're probably just gonna store away in or around your desk somewhere.
"Should be holy water because you all need it."
"Mmm, I don't know, I don't think they have that but we can check." He responds ever so seriously, causing you to chuckle.
"How many people are you expecting?"
"Honestly, I don't even know. We said we'd keep it to close friends only. I don't really have any friends, so that's all on them."
"Ah, makes sense as to how the entire class was invited." You fire back sarcastically. "Your upstairs neighbors are really gonna have a blast."
"They're invited too."
"You guys are so dumb." He laughs when you hit him against the chest. After walking a bit, the two of you head towards the alcohol aisle, Jungkook grabbing what his arms will allow him to grab since alcohol is a little cheaper here than other grocery stores. "Isn't there a limit as to how much alcohol you can buy?"
"I don't see anything anywhere." He hauls about 4 big bottles back to the cashiers. "Besides, I'm giving them business compared to Safeway and those other grocery stores."
"Grab the coupon at least, genuis. It could save you some money." You take off the coupons from the three bottles.
He looks down at the coupon attached to the 4th bottle. "Sign up today and get 2% cash back on every bottle you buy." He snorts after reading the coupon outloud. "More like sign up today and get 2% cash back turnt." He looks at you. "This doesn't sound like a coupon, miss. Where's the âget 5 dollars offâ bullshit?"
"2% cash back turnt? Really?" You furrow your brows at him and hand the coupons to the cashier. "Here. God, maybe you shouldn't be hosting parties with your roommates."
"Maybe not." He holds his bags, even grabbing onto yours as you both walk out to his car. He turns up the radio, the both of you singing along to the songs coming through. When he pulls up to the lot of Edgehill Village, he parks in someone else's marked spot only because it's technically next to your door and he doesn't anticipate to stay long. But honestly, that never goes as planned. He grabs your bag from the trunk, silently following behind you as you unlock your door to an empty suite - just as you expected. Kass was most likely at Jungkookâs, spending the night with Jimin, and you'd be alone for the night. It didn't matter to you though, the peace and quiet was always nice.
"You sure you're gonna be okay here alone?" You nod.
"Yup. It's kind of nice actually." You lean forward onto your bed since it's raised a little higher than usual with bed risers, and open up your laptop. Jungkook sets your Target bag down and wraps his arms around you from behind, planting a kiss on your cheek and on your jawline.
"You sure you don't want me to sleep over? Cuddles sound nice."
"It sounds like you want to."
"Only if you want me to." He nuzzles his head against your neck, waiting for your response.
"Kook, please." You chuckle. "If you wanna sleepover, then go ahead."
"Yesssss! I do."
"Well you need to find parking, or else the person that owns that parking spot will be highly upset."
"You got it, captain. Pull up a movie!" He says, dashing out of your room to move his car. He's most likely going to come back in another 5 minutes, being that the only free parking at this time of night is probably on the other end in the gym's lot, or somewhere on the streets [if he got lucky].
And so that 5 minutes sure does go by before Jungkook is breathing heavily when he walks into your room, duffle bag swung over his shoulder with a big, dorky ass smile on his face.
"I'm back!"
"I see." You snort, still going through the movies.
"Hey, let's run through what Hobi taught us first."
"Ugh, I'm so tired though."
"Cooooome on, just once." He pulls you by the hand, his body pressed against yours as his his other arm wraps around your waist. "Please." His puppy dog eyes look down at you, causing you to push him away because fucking hell, that shit makes you weak. Makes the pussy throb just a lil, you know? Christ.
"Only if you watch 10 Things I Hate About You."
"Sure, I don't mind." He pulls up the song on your laptop. The both of you face the mirror in front of you, careful not to hit each other since you had such limited space to fully move around. Running through it once was a full blown lie, being that you both are doing it for almost 5-6 times before you're laughing at how out of breath you already are. You're so out of it and winded by the last time around that you accidentally hit Jungkook in the face, causing him to whine and stumble off to the side.
"Oh shit!" You laugh. "I'm so sorry, Kookie!" You run over to cup his face. "Are you okay? You good?"
"Shit, Y/N. You have a heavy hand." He keeps his hand against his cheek.
"I'm sorry." You lean in to plant a kiss on his cheek, but Jungkook being Jungkook, he looks to the side to have his lips meet yours instead. He picks you up in one swift motion, your legs wrapped around his torso as he sits you on your bed, your hands still cupping his face. And honestly, you really wanted him. You've always wanted him since this whole thing started. God, he was attractive to you - every little thing about Jungkook was a fucking weakness, but you weren't gonna let up first. Not tonight. The scar on his cheek, his soft, fluffy hair, his toned body, his muscular ass arms, the way he held onto you when you both slept, the way he kissed you.
Lord, he was truly going to be the death of you.
Before the kiss could get any deeper, you smile into it and back away, keeping your gaze on the small, dazed smile Jungkook has on his face.
"Can we watch now?" You ask, subtly biting onto your bottom lip.
"Yeah, good idea."
"Actually, after all that, I need to shower first."
"Can I join?" His eyes light up.
"Sit your ass down. You can go after." You laugh as you hop off the bed, grabbing your pajamas for a quick shower. You literally take 10 minutes, walking back into your room with wet hair and an oversized shirt and shorts underneath. Although you had been completely comfortable with Jungkook, the both of you have never really seen each other fully naked like that. Whenever he slept over, you were both always fully clothed. You've seen him hop out of the shower and come in shirtless, but that's probably about it. You start to brush your teeth as he rummages through his emergency duffle bag full of shit that he holds in the trunk of his car, grabbing a fresh pair of clothes to change into after his shower. You already know his ass is gonna use your shampoo for everything because he loves the smell of it and always talks about how good your hair smells.
While waiting for him, you slip yourself under your covers and pull the laptop closer to you, scrolling through your phone aimlessly to see what's new on instagram. Which, is absolutely nothing, so you let out a dissatisfied sigh.
"Ready!" He comes in, tossing his towel aside and shutting off the lights to crawl into your bed with you.
"You smell just like me." You chuckle.
"It's great, isn't it?"
"Your hair isn't bothering you?" You run your hand through his incredibly wet hair as he shakes his head.
"No, I'll be good."
"Okay." He wraps his arm around you to pull you onto his body, the movie already off to a start. As the movie goes on, you find yourself getting sleep as both of your bodies sink deeper into the sheets, Jungkook still not letting you go. The laptop rests on his belly, while your head is on his chest, his heartbeat the one thing putting you to sleep pretty quickly. He's comfortable, just as you are. He's warm, you're warm. He's content, you're content. You drift off to sleep while he continues to watch, knowing your bodies will be pressed tightly against each other in the morning.
"Kook there's so many fucking people here. The cops are gonna come and shut this down quick." Jungkook shrugs.
"Oh well, wasn't my idea." He snorts. "Shot?!" He hands you a shot that you take with ease, feeling like you aren't drunk enough for all this shit and all these people. "Atta girl."
"Yuck, though." You slightly make a sour face as you feel the warmth trickle down your throat and into your stomach.
"Heeeey, whyyyyy do you look so FaMiliaR?" This girl asks Jungkook in a weird, flirty tone, where every other consonant goes up and down. She's obviously really fucking drunk and out of her mind because for one, she definitely goes to the same school as you two, and she has definitely been in class with Jungkook before.
"Oh uh, my name's Justin Bieber. I used to sing from time to time." He says nonchalantly with you furrowing your forehead at him because what kind of response did he just give her?! What did he just tell her? You're so embarrassed that you slowly turn on your heel and walk out of the kitchen as you hear him sing One Less Lonely Girl hella out of tune, with the girl completely smitten over his drunk ass.
"Where's Jungkookie?" Kass asks as she sits on Jimin's lap.
"Over there, pretending to be Justin Bieber apparently."
"Oh, nice. You don't come across that often." Jimin says sarcastically. "Are you staying here tonight?"
"Yeah, stay here tonight, with Kookie." Kass wiggles her eyebrows, her cheek resting on top of Jimin's head. "It's not like that's anything new."
"Um, I'd rather much be back in the dorm."
"That cold, lonely place? When you could be here, in such a pretty apartment with such a pretty boy?" You shake your head at her.
"Unbelievable." You mutter. Suddenly, an incredibly tall man walks into the apartment, reaching about 6'1 and almost hitting the ceiling with his tall ass. You've never seen him before, but he walks in with Hoseok and Namjoon and for whatever reason, you can't peel your eyes off of him. "Woah, who's that?"
"Who's what?" Jungkook finally comes to your side after being Justin Bieber for a good minute or so, his eyes following yours. Who was he and why were you looking at him so intensely?
"That's Kang! You've never met him?" Jimin says, doing a slight nod to greet him as he passes by. Kang and his fine self looks up at you, a small smirk creeping up at the corner of his lips as he continues through to the kitchen behind Hoseok and Namjoon. "He's a transfer and on the basketball team."
"He's fiiiiine." You and Kass swoon over him a bit, Jungkook giving you a look.
"He's alriiiight. I've seen better."
"Shut up, no one asked you." You lightly punch him on the side, making him lightly groan while Jimin and Kass laugh. The rest of the party, you suddenly have a goal to find out more about Kang and see what he's about because you and Jungkook weren't official. You both didn't really know what this was, but one thing you knew for sure was that it wasn't anything exclusive. You wouldn't bring it up, so wouldn't Jungkook - so was this really something all that meaningful?
Whatever, you didn't wanna keep going in circles about it.
Jungkook fucking hates it though, and he's honestly really jealous that you're suddenly trying to be all cute and woo the new, tall, handsome [but he's not really that fucking handsome to Jungkook for christ's sake] basketball player. Jungkook almost wants to mock his every move and how suavé he is, almost looking like a try hard with the way he's leaning against the wall and talking to you.
Waitâ he's talking to you?! You were literally right next to him 2 seconds ago.
"What the fuck?" He squints, trying to make sure he's actually looking at you.
"You're so full of shit." Jimin laughs.
"What are you talking about?"
"Why don't you just admit that you like her and stop being childish about it?"
"I don't like her. She's just my bestfriend."
"Um, okay?" Jimin snorts. "When you sleep at her place every chance you get and vice versa? When she has a ton of your shirts and hoodies in her own fucking closet? When you always get so affectionate with her in the dorm? Sure, you don't like her."
"How do you know that?"
"I just do, you've done it in front of me and Kass before but you both tried playing it off. I don't understand you two."
"Well, I don't like her. She obviously doesn't either with the way she's trying to be all up on him." Jungkook glares at you, his teeth biting the rim of the cup harshly as he brings it to his lips to take a sip.
"Whatever, I'm just saying dude. Probably better to be straight up about it than not."
"Kaaaaaaay." Jungkook responds sarcastically, trying to play off how butthurt he was right now. Cause yeah, he did fucking like you. He was just scared to admit it though because of reasons like this - the fact that you possibly didn't like him back killed him. The fact that you could possibly be using him to feel wanted, needed. It made his stomach turn.
He just really liked you, and god, did he want to be the one in your bed tonight. Whether or not that ended up in sex, whatever. He just wanted to be the one to touch you, be on you.
Meanwhile, Kang was attractive as hell and ouwee, were you feeling him tonight. You were, you really were - except, you could literally feel the holes Jungkook was burning through you from across the room. You'd occasionally glance over due to how distracting it was, Jungkook literally have no shame with eyeing you, almost glaring at you, from across the apartment.
"Is it too forward if I ask for your number already?" Kang licks his lips, his teeth lightly piercing his bottom lip as he looks down at you.
"No." You smirk at him, taking his phone to put your number in.
"We should kick it soon. I'd love to hang out with you and get to know you better."
"Yeah, just let me know when." You blush, until you're suddenly pulled out of your daze by a loud 'ahem,' the loudest throat-clearing you have ever heard in your life. You turn to see Jungkook making his way back over to the shots, knowing damn well he's calling you over. "See you around?" Kang winks before he tips his cup to you and gives you a single nod.
"Sure thing, cutiepie." You bite onto your bottom lip, making your way over to Jungkook at the shot station, instantly pinching his arm.
"What the fuck?"
"Nobody was calling you over." Jungkook smirks.
"Shut the fuck up, yes you were. I know that was you clearing your throat like that."
"I'm sorry, does it bother you?" He blinks cutely, tilting his head to the side. "Besides, why come over here when you're too busy with your man?"
"Are you jealous?"
"Why in the hell would I be jealous, Y/N? Do you." The words sting you, even though part of you still wants to believe that Jungkook may actually like you. All you can do is sigh and brush it off, placing your cup down in front of him as he pours himself another shot. "You sure?"
"Just give me the damn shot." You say, making it your 7th.
And the 7th turns into 8, 8 turns into 9, 9 turns into 10. And at 10, you're pretty fucking drunk even as the party is starting to die down by the time it's close to 2am. All 10 were a good combination of shots and mixed drinks.
10 drinks.
10 drinks is what it took for you to lay in Jungkook's bed at the end of the night, hands tangled in his fluffy hair as your makeout session intensifies by the minute - all due to this sexual tension, frustration, whatever the hell it was brewing between you two after all this time. The both of you are drunk as hell, and it's pretty evident with the way you can still taste the alcohol on his tongue, both sloppily touching up on each other, kisses getting wetter, clothes coming off like there's no tomorrow.
"Wait, are you sure?" Jungkook says, about to unhook your bra.
"Jungkook, god, just fuck me." You plead drunkily, the room spinning around you. He continues to unhook your bra, tossing it across the room where your other clothes lay, peppering kisses along your neck before licking up a stripe to meet your lips again. He hooks his fingers across the band of your panties, tugging them down and letting them get lost within his sheets. You take this as leverage to tug his boxer briefs down, already stroking his hardened member the moment you come into contact with it. The sad thing is that you both are so fucking drunk, you can't even appreciate the fact that you both are naked in front of each other for the first time ever.
You can't even come to terms with the fact that you both are about to fuck each other and cross that boundary completely.
But, hell, what do you care? You were drunk. You got a cute guy's number. You're getting dick at the end of the night.
"Oh shit, Y/N." He moans into your mouth as he feels you stroking him. "Need to feel you." He quickly runs his finger down your fold, slipping in two digits to pump them in and out, quickly prepping you for his dick.
"Hnnng--Kook." You bite onto your bottom lip as your eyes shut close momentarily, your head digging deeper into the pillow the more he tries to stretch you out. "Want you inside of me."
"I got you." He says. You almost whine at the loss of contact until you feel his tip poking at your entrance. He slowly continues to slip himself inside of you, Kook letting out a small groan while your mouth was left open, a soundless moan releasing before you hiss and take in all of him. He fills you up so well, so completely. He was so big that you felt full, bloated, with him being inside of you the way he was.
"Ohhhhhgod." You whimper as he starts to steady his pace, the lewd noises of his cock slipping in and out of your wet pussy filling his room - god forbid if Jimin or their other roommate Yoongi heard this right now. It would be nothing short of pornographic.
"You're so wet. Is that all for me?" He says, causing your eyes to roll to the back of your head as he begins to aggressively thrust into you.
"Y-yes." You whine.
"Say it again."
"All for you, Kook."
"I fucking thought so." He drunkily responds as one hand grips onto your hips tightly, the other in your hair as he digs his head back into the crook of your neck, his tongue messily licking near your jaw before he nibbles onto your earlobe.
"Hmmmmgggh, Jungkook. Fuck." You moan as you start to work your hips upward into his, your clit rubbing against his pelvis, causing the pleasure to pool quickly within the pit of your stomach. It causes goosebumps to pierce through the surface of your skin, your hands gripping tighter on his hair. "You're-you're gonna make me cum. Faster." You plead. He does just so, hammering into you, the sound of his hips slamming into yours bouncing off of the walls.
"AhhhâY/N." He groans.
"Just like that, just like that, just like that!" You repeat, your clit feeling incredibly stimulated by the way it rubs against his skin while he fucks into you. "Oh shit! Jungkook!" You moan loudly, biting his shoulder as you feel yourself trembling hard in his grip, your orgasm taking over your entire body.
"Shit, shit, shitâY/N, Shiiiit." He says into your neck, followed by more curses and groans as you feel him coat your walls warmly. He stays inside of you until the both of you come back down to normalcy, your breathing becoming more regulated. He slowly slips himself out, plopping next to you on the bed, but doesn't welcome you into his arms.
The night goes on, the both of you sleeping on your own sides of Jungkook's bed, not really saying a word to each other. Because the both of you, although still pretty drunk, are more aware by the time it's over and it's become so clear how fucked up this got.
You were hurt. Completely hurt. Because you didn't expect Jungkook to just fucking ghost you after that night. You wanted to talk about it, maybe come to the conclusion that you two should just distance yourselves from each other to figure this out, even if it would hurt you a lot to do so.
No.
That morning, Jimin and Kass had to take you back to campus because Jungkook had darted out of his room, nowhere to be seen until later that night. The next week or so, there were no texts, no calls. No visiting your dorm, no asking to sleepover.
Nothing.
Just radio silence, white noise, if you will.
The one thing he could come up with was a stupid response to your text when you finally caved and asked what you did wrong mid-week.
Something along the lines of 'what do you want me to say, Y/N? do you want me to force myself to feel a certain way?'
Followed by a 'i'm sorry, fuck. that came out really wrong' even though you thought it came out perfectly fine. You understood loud and clear.
Even though this wasn't really an exclusive thing, or even a 'thing' if we wanna be straight up, you still couldn't help but feel like Jungkook had just dumped your ass with no explanation and you were still waiting for that explanation to come, whether it would or not. And because of this, you started to see Kang, hangout with him more often. He even took you out on a dinner date and you really enjoyed his company. He seemed genuine, caring, supportive - even if a lot of the basketball boys were the complete opposite. He was different, you liked to think.
And so you stand in front of the mirrors in the dance studio, you and Jungkook awkwardly running through the piece with Hoseok watching, confused as to why all of a sudden the two of you have this weird tension going on. It hasn't entirely ruined the couple piece, but it hasn't brought it together, either. The both of you could barely look at each other, barely get into the movements, the emotions behind the motions. Hoseok had to correct a few things, his 'pah pah pah's' echoing in the room constantly with how many times you and Jungkook had to be set straight for your sloppy steps today.
"Okay, I'm not saying it's bad, cause it's not. But can you both please act like you at least like each other or something? What's going on with you two? You aren't normally like this." Hoseok says, coming down to a crouch in front of the mirrors.
"Nothing, we'll do better. Don't worry." You brush off the entire question with your quick response. Jungkook looks at you, his hands on his hips, lightly frowning at how much you're distancing yourself even though he knows its entirely his fault for running from his feelings and not being honest with you.
"Okay, let's do it from the top." The music starts, you getting into the piece without making any eye contact with Jungkook. Even the steps that cause you to be close and near Jungkook, you look anywhere but his eyes, and your touch is light, trying your hardest not to let any feelings pass through the motion. Hoseok is a little more pleased this time around, but it still doesn't sit right with him, so he lets you two take a break while he heads to the other studio to check on Jimin and the rest of the group.
"Hey. Are you okay?"
"Jungkook, you don't get to ask me that." He sighs and runs his hand through his hair, not sure if he should continue on or not.
"Y/Nâ"
"Save it, and let's just get this over with, okay? I don't wanna be here just as much as you." Your words cut him deep because dear, you have gotten him completely misunderstood and yet, he still can't speak. He still can't talk about his feelings. He still can't save this even though he wants to, even though he loathes seeing you the way you are with Kang.
"I never saidâ"
"Kay, ready? Let's run this full out and make it a good one so we can call it for today." Hoseok says, clapping his hands to hype you two up somehow. The music starts and you're finally able to get into the steps. The emotions. And god, it's only because you're so hurt by your own bestfriend. You're hurt that he fucked you so good, and then dipped. You're hurt that he couldn't even face you the day after. You're hurt that after all this time, he made it seem like you still didn't matter enough - at least enough for an explanation, for some kind of reasoning, conversation, behind what just went down between the both of you. Between what has been going down between the both of you.
Besides the stupid ass responses he gave you through text.
You get so into your feelings that you don't even realize you're tearing up by the time the piece is over, and Jungkook catches it even though you face away from him as soon as the music cuts out.
"Nice, okay! That was so much better! Let's pick it up next session, yeah? We'll keep cleaning it up. Thanks guys!" Hoseok says. You immediately head towards the wall, grabbing your things to avoid any confrontation from Jungkook, but he grabs your arm as soon as you slip through the door.
"Y/N, wait. Stop."
"Let me go." You yank your arm from his grip.
"Why are you crying?" He stops in front of you, his hands placed on your arms to prevent you from moving any further.
"I'm not." You blatantly lie while you aggressively wipe away the stragglers coming down.
"Really? Just gonna lie like that?"
"Why do you care? You haven't said shit to me all week." You snap back, and Jungkook is taken aback from the tone in your voice. You remove his hands from your arms, and take one last look at him before shaking your head and walking off.
Next mistake? He doesn't come after you.
This was a waste of fucking time. If he truly cared about you, he wouldn't let you hurt like this.
You let out a deep sigh before clutching onto your things and walking back to your dorm. The walk from the gym/fitness center was damn near on the other end of campus compared to your dorm. It would be a good 10 minute walk if you really took your time. A good 10 minutes to ponder on your thoughts.
Yes, you liked Jungkook. You really liked him. Having sex with him solidified those feelings even more. How could you not have feelings for your bestfriend after all the moments you've shared? Was it your fault for assuming that? Was it your fault for walking through that door when it seemed to be completely open for you?
"Sup." Kang comes out of nowhere, pulling you out of your thoughts. He swings his arm around your shoulder, gently pulling you closer to his body. Â "Just got out of practice?"
"Sure did." You give him a toothless smile. Yes, he was attractive as hell. He always will be. But, even with the time you spent together, the date he took you on, he still couldn't make you feel the way Jungkook has been able to make you feel.
"How was it?"
"Um, it was alright. Nothing new really, just cleaning up the piece before the show. You're going right?"
"Why wouldn't I?" He smiles down at you. "Listen, I don't know if you've heard, but there's another party tonight."
"A party? It's Wednesday." You snort.
"Yeah, I mean, one of the boys on the Lacrosse team is throwing it at his family house because his parents will be gone. Wanna come? I'll pick you up. We don't have to stay for long." You looked at your watch.
"What time is it at?"
"Like 9ish?" Enough time for you to shower and get a quick dinner in your belly. Why the hell not? You were caught up for the week. You didn't have any pressing assignments that were due asap.
"Sure. I'll come."
"Cool. See you later then?" He says, about to part ways with you. You simply give him a nod before walking deeper into Edgehill village. You hoped you wouldn't regret this tonight, and you really hoped he meant it when he said you two didn't have to stay for long. You drag yourself into your room, seeing Kass' door wide open, revealing her packing up her duffle bag.
"Hey, where are you headed during the middle of the week?"
"My two classes got cancelled for tomorrow so me and Jiminie are heading out for a mini getaway for our anniversary." You cross your arms and smile. "He's just gonna catch up on shit when we get back I guess." She laughs.
"That sounds cute. I hope you have loads of fun this weekend, babe."
"What are you gonna do?" Kass and Jimin were obviously aware of everything happening between you and Jungkook being that they had to be the ones to take you home. They never pressed on it though, knowing you both were still pretty upset about how things were playing out. They figured you two would eventually work it out, but until then, they would just sit back and keep their mouths shut. You two were being completely stubborn, but it wasn't their relationship to fix.
"Well, there's this party Kang wants to take me to tonight."
"The Lacrosse party? Messy." She laughs. "Be careful, but also have fun, yeah? I still donât know if I trust him.â
"Yeah I know."
"Tell me how it goes!"
"I will." You wave her off as you head into your room and shut the door. You figured you would just grab dinner on campus to avoid spending more money than you should; after all, dinner seemed to be pretty bomb tonight. You didn't mind going alone, sometimes Namjoon would join you, asking for you to bring him a plate of food while he does the hard job of sneaking inside the cafeteria through the back door. He usually waits for you at a free table and ends up staying there to have dinner with you, updating you on how life has been, how school has been. Sometimes Hoseok would join you, too. Either way, you didn't mind if no one joined. It was nice to have dinner by yourself from time to time.
You get there on time to be able to grab some food, eat quietly and head out before the cafeteria gets way too busy for your liking. You slip into the shower and throw on a mini skirt, a crop top and a denim jacket, lightly fluffing your hair in the mirror and adding a dab of lip gloss to your lips before Kang is calling you to tell you he's outside your dorm. He's wearing something similar to your color palette, however, you don't make much out of it since this also wasn't really an exclusive thing and you sure as hell weren't going around telling people you and Kang had a thing going on.
To him, you two might be a thing. You've definitely overheard people talking about you two in passing.
To you though, you two definitely weren't. And it was a big fuck you to Jungkook for that.
The house is packed from end to end already, and you're surprised being that it has barely hit 10 minutes since the party was expected to take off. Kang is having to park down the hill, allowing you to hop onto his back for a quick piggy back ride up until you reach the front of the house. There's people already fucked up out on the lawn [you figured they fucked themselves over during their pre-game session cause that shit really happens from time to time], either laying there drunkily or yacking on a free patch of grass.
Gross.
Messy, indeed.
Some people are posted, smoking blunts and offering it to people who were passing by. You and Kang both pass up on it, the idea of not knowing where it has been not sitting right with you. You both head straight to the bottles, taking shots and downing mixed drinks to chase it with so that you can catch up with majority of the crowd. Kang has his arm around your shoulder throughout the night, keeping you close to him, even when he's getting pretty drunk. You realize he's a little more handsy than usual, a little more touchy than you expected him to be. It doesn't bother you for a minute, until he really tries to hike up your skirt while you sit on his lap. You gently shoo his hand away, playing it off while he nuzzles his head against your neck.
"Let's go upstairs, babe." He says, the pet name sounding incredibly off coming from him. Maybe you were drunk, maybe you really just weren't in the mood. It just didn't sound cute, if that even makes sense?
"Okay." You respond stupidly, not wanting to cause a scene at a lacrosse party. You intertwine your fingers with his as he leads the way up the stairs, eyeing the doors as they come into view. He leans forward towards each door, making sure it's clear before opening it. You assume he finally finds one that he's satisfied with when you catch the small smirk that grows at the corner of his lips when he turns the door knob and brings you inside. He pulls you into a deep, rough kiss, one that doesn't even allow you to breathe and process what the fuck is even going on. You can't get into it for the life of you, no matter how hard you try to back away. "Wait, wait."
"What's wrong, baby? Isn't this what you wanted?" He says, kissing down your neck as he drops his jacket to the floor. He gently pushes you onto the bed, his hands traveling up your skirt as you lay there trying to push him off.
"Wait, stop." He doesn't listen. He continues until his hands are literally hooking onto your panties, his finger swiping down your clothed folds. You try fighting him off, but he's way stronger than you. He continues to be aggressive, forcefully trying to shove your panties down until you muster up all the energy you have to finally push him off of you completely. "Stop!"
"What the fuck? I thought you wanted this?"
"Who the hell said that?"
"Are you serious? The way that you're dressed and the way that you look at me. The way you approached me at your friend's party - isn't it all because of this? Because you wanted me? Why are you backing out now?"
"Jesus, get over yourself." You stand, fixing your skirt back down. He furrows his brows at you before his hand grips your arm tightly, shoving you against the wall.
"The fuck, you can't just leave without giving me anything. I brought you here to this party."
"Let me go! You're fucking sick. No one even told you I wanted this to go down. I don't know who you think you are, but you need to get yourself together and stop assuming every pussy is yours to take." He attempts to pin you, his hand holding up both of your hands against the wall while the other tries to pull up your skirt. Someone accidentally opens the door, distracting him and giving you leverage to shove him off and get the fuck away. You dart down the steps, fixing your skirt as you head outside and away from the house.
Fuck, you're far from campus. And Kass and Jimin aren't around.
God.
You groan and run your hand through your hair as you continue to walk down the hill and into the neighborhood to get as far away as possible from that house and that gross ass dude. He was literally just like the rest of the basketball team. You've heard stories and they weren't nice. Looks like he was trained well already, and that shit was sad. What a waste. A beautiful human being with such a nasty, sick mindset. You hoped other girls hadn't fallen for his shit.
Ugh, it sends shivers down your spine. Bad shivers.
"Hello? Y/N?"
"Kook, can you come pick me up please?"
"Yeah, yeah. Of course. Where are you?"
"I'll drop my location. Please hurry." You say, looking back to make sure your coast was clear. You drop the pin into your text thread with Jungkook and sit on the curb until his arrival. It's getting pretty chilly out, and the denim jacket you're wearing fails to provide you with the warmth you're looking for. Sooner or later, Jungkook is pulling up, damn near hopping out before he can shift the gear into park.
"You okay? What happened?" He says, opening the door for you before rushing over to the driver's seat.
"Nothing, can we just go back to your place?" He nods silently, and doesn't press any further after hearing your tone. He watches from his peripherals how you fiddle with your fingers and constantly reach to pull your skirt down even though he doesn't think there's any other way you could pull it down even more. He watches as he parks the car on the curb in front of his apartment how you simply undo your seatbelt and hop out to walk straight into his apartment. He watches as you welcome yourself into his closet and pick out some clothes for you to change in.
You were hurt, and his blood boils thinking about who could've done this and what they could have possibly done.
I mean, no. He knows who did this, but the question was what exactly did he try?
He hears the shower turn on, then quickly get turned off after a good 5 minutes. You had stepped in for a quick body shower, using Jungkook's bodywash just to rid yourself of feeling gross. Feeling gross from being shoulder to shoulder all night long, people breathing down your neck. Kang touching you inappropriately. You slip into Jungkook's clothes, his scent wrapping around you entirely. When you head back into the room, Jungkook has his headset back on as he faces his computer, logging back onto his game of League of Legends. You silently toss your dirty clothes to the side of his room, making a mental note to grab it tomorrow morning and toss it straight into the laundry.
Straight into a fire, perhaps. But you loved those clothes so much, it was unfortunate it'd have such a horrible memory to go with it.
Jungkook slowly removes his headset again and removes himself from his game before he heads over and sits on the edge of his bed. You simply look at him, pursing your lips tightly together to prevent yourself from crying.
But he can tell.
"What happened Y/N?" The question triggers you, making you cry into your hands as he sits there, dumbfounded and worried at how he can fix this and make you feel better. "Look, you don't have to tell me all the details but please tell me how I can help. At least tell me if I need to beat Kang's ass." He says, pulling you into his arms.
"He tried to fucking take advantage of me." You mumble as you remove your face from your hands.
"He did what?" He manages to ask even though he has a hard time swallowing the lump that formed in his throat. He already assumed you had placed him in the same category as Kang even though he never intended to take advantage of you. He really took that night as something special [even drunk], and he never meant to make you feel like you were a used object. Not like Kang.
"He-he," You sniffed. "He tried to force me into having sex with him. He took me upstairs at that lacrosse guy's party or whoever the hell it even was, and he started to aggressively kiss me. And then he tried to force my panties down and touch me there, andâ"
"Okay, please don't go on or else I'll literally go over there and tear his ass apart right now. I promise you." He says sternly, his jaw clenching tightly. "God, fuck. I'm so sorry Y/N. I can't apologize on his behalf but fuck, you didn't deserve that." He uses his sweater to wipe your tears.
"I don't even know why I'm crying, this shit isn't even worth it." You groaned. "It's just overwhelming to process, I guess."
"That's okay." He says, letting out a sigh as he brushes his hand through your hair and continues to wipe the stragglers falling from your eyes. "Anything I can get you right now?"
"No, I'm probably just gonna go to bed." He nods. "Thank you for picking me up."
"Of course. You know I'll always be there." He says. You slip yourself into his sheets, watching as he makes his way back to his desk. But fuck, the only thing you needed right now was him. You didn't want this distance anymore, and you just wanted to be comforted in true Jungkook fashion.
"Wait."
"Hm?" He hums as he has a hand placed on the  head of his chair while he turns to you.
"Can you just lay with me?"
"Yeah." He says, shutting off his computer before making his way over to you in the dark. You feel him slip in next to you, his arm snaking around your shoulders so he can pull you close and onto his chest. "Better?"
"Yeah." You say, shutting your eyes as you listen to his heart beat.
"Y/N."
"Yeah?"
"I never meant to take advantage of you, or make you feel like I used you that one night." Silence. "It was dumb of me, but I justâ I had trouble coming to terms with my feelings. I was scared that you wouldn't feel the same way, but I thought fuck it, at least you would know, right?"
"What are you talking about, Kook?" You ask, close to a whisper.
"I'm saying that I really fucking like you, Y/N. No, that's not right." He curses himself. "I-I uh, I'm in love with you. And I don't know if I messed this up already with the way I acted, god I hope not, but you at least deserve to know that I truly do value you and that you mean alot to me. That night, even though we were pretty plastered, it meant a lot to me. It was more than just sex and I'm sure you felt that too." He waits for your response as his fingers rake through your hair. "Please say something, anything."
"I feel the same way, Jungkook. You're an idiot for running off, but I couldn't even stay mad at you. You just know how to hit my soft spots and I can never say no to it. Can never turn my back on it." He presses a kiss against the top of your head.
"Fuck, I'm really glad to hear that cause I don't know what I would have done besides cry if you rejected me." You playfully hit his chest.
"You're annoying." You jokingly say as you chuckle.
"I'm sorry. I really am. I never wanted to hurt you."
"It's okay." You look up to press your lips against his before laying back down.
"And Kang better be fucking glad you're pressed against my body right now because I'm still looking to beat his ass."
"He's not even worth it." Is the last thing you say before you find yourself drifting into a deep sleep, in the comfort of Jungkook's arms.
"You two feeling okay? Nervous?" You and Jungkook shake your heads. "Good, you guys got this. You've been looking amazing during practice, the audience will love you two, no doubt. Just remember to show emotions through expressions and hit every beat sharply." Hoseok nods in unison with the both of you.
"Got it, thanks Hobi." You smile at him toothlessly. You and Jungkook patiently waited for your turn backstage, the talent show already off to a wild and fun start. So many students came by to showcase their talents - from beatboxing, open mic, freestyling [like Yoongi did], dancing, singing, you name it. It was always a fun time at the talent show, and it was always nice to see people getting love for the shit they loved to do.
"You're up next." Hoseok says. "I'll be in the front row. Kick ass and have fun!" He says as he rushes off towards the opposite end to head back out to his seat in the theater.
"Ready?" Jungkook holds out his hand for you to take.
"I think so." You playfully respond as the backstage crew is rushing out the previous talent and rushing you two in to take your places on stage. The lights pick up as soon as the music starts, Kang's big ass head already in full view for you. He's definitely not smiling, no, he has a look of pure disgust because he simply couldn't get what he wanted from you.
And boy, who's fault was that? Not yours, no sir. It was his fault for thinking he had it like that.
But anyways, you're feeling the music, you're feeling the piece because you're dancing with your bestfriend and there wasn't this grey area anymore. It was easier to get into the motions, to get into the feeling, especially when things felt right between the two of you.
And God, what else is more attractive than Jeon Jungkook hitting his 8 counts so smoothly, with just enough umph to make it pop but make it pop cleanly.
Yo, please. I beg. Send some help. You could literally melt on stage.
The moments where Jungkook has to be close to you, where he has to touch you - you let him, and you touch him with meaning. You don't stray away this time because you have no reason to. The crowd is cheering, lots of 'ou's' and 'aw's' erupting from various places in the theater.
"Pretty lady." Jungkook whispers in your ear as the move requires his hands to be placed on your hips for a quick moment. You hear him slightly singing along to the song as he parts from you, causing you to blush.
Sooner or later, the couple piece is over and the song is transitioning to Jimin's piece, you and Jungkook rushing off the stage so the next group can take their positions. Jimin wanted to test his limits, creating a piece a little different than his usual taste - Chris Brown's Came to Do begins blaring through the theater speakers. You immediately jump into Jungkook's arms once you both reach backstage, the both of you immensely happy and pumped that you got through the piece without messing up one step or beat. It went so smoothly that Hoseok was standing in the front row, clapping and cheering in typical Hoseok fashion. You intertwine your fingers with his, slipping through the side door to catch Jimin's piece on stage. You and Jungkook are cheering them on, always impressed by the shit your friends can come up with. You both loved dancing, but you couldn't even imagine coming up with your own pieces to teach people.
That night after the show, everyone heads to a nearby restaurant for dinner with everyone. You all take up almost an entire section of the restaurant, splitting two long tables to accommodate the entire group with doubled the waitresses to take your orders. You settle for water, splitting an abnormally huge and filled deep dish pizza with Jimin, Kass and Jungkook. It was a good day, a good night, everyone at the table happily eating and chatting it up over dinner. You turn down any drinks because to be honest, drinks lowkey make you queasy just from the thought of how much you drank at Jungkook's apartment, plus the added bonus of that party Kang took you to. Jungkook declines as well, knowing he has to drive you back safely.
Jimin and Kass head back to the apartment because Yoongi says he's gonna hang out with Joon And Hoseok for a bit, and they warn you and Jungkook that things may get loud so the both of you decide to really stick to the plan of bringing you back to the dorm. Jungkook does his usual routine of dropping you off first before finding parking around campus. You hop in the shower and come out in Jungkook's oversized crewneck that he left in your closet, forgoing the shorts because you certainly thing that at this point, he'd love to see you in his sweater and panties.
And he does. He smiles as he pulls you close, his hands traveling up your sweater, only to find out that you literally don't have shit on besides some cute little boyshorts. He feels himself hardening in his pants quick because he's incredibly attracted to you and everything about you, always has been, always will be.
"You did amazing tonight." He says, gently kissing your forehead.
"You did too, partner." He gives you a slightly shocked look.
"Is that all I am to you? Your dance partner?"
"Yeah, why? Were you expecting more?" You joke as you smile up at him.
"Yeah, I was."
"Oh?" He gently swoops you up into his arms, your legs wrapped tightly around his torso as he sits you on the bed, his hands resting on your thighs while you continued to hold him around the neck. "Care to tell me what you were expecting?"
"Well, you know, my best friendâ" He presses a kiss against your lips, thumbs gently rubbing circles against your hips. "My girlfriend."
"Hm, say that again?" Your fingers are gently playing with the ends of his hair, your lips barely grazing his.
"My girlfriend." He says closed to a whisper, kissing you softly. The kiss deepens quick, Jungkook's tongue lining your bottom lip as his way of asking for permission to take it further. You gladly take it and let him in, your tongues instantly fighting for dominance. Your fingers travel up his hair, tugging ever so slightly just to let him know you want more. That you need more.
And he gets that.
His fingers hook onto the band of your boyshorts, tugging them down and letting them fall down your legs and onto the floor. He breaks the kiss momentarily, his brown, puppy dog eyes looking straight into yours.
"Hey." He says, brushing the hair out of your face.
"Hm?"
"I know I said the last time was special, and it was. It is." He corrects himself. "But, I wanna do right by you this time around. So, is it okay if I keep going? Are you comfortable?" He asks properly, since the two of you are both sober and perfectly coherent, aware of your surroundings and the fact that you'll be seeing each other fully naked in a few minutes.
"Yes." You respond. "Yes, I want you to keep going. I want you. This." He simply nods, bringing his lips back onto yours. His hands climb up your sweater and gently gives your breasts a good squeeze, earning a small moan from the both of you. His other hand begins to travel down to your pussy, two long fingers slowly probing your entrance and causing your breathing to hitch.
"You okay?" He asks lowly. You nod, biting onto your bottom lip as you tilt your head back and rest on your hands, no longer able to keep up with the kiss due to all the pleasure starting to pile up deep in your core. Jungkook starts of slow, his head now buried into the crook of your neck as he works his digits upward, tickling at the right spot.
"Ohhhh, Kook." You mewl as his tongue swipes across the surface of your neck, biting gently beneath your jaw. He begins to pick up the pace, the sounds of him finger fucking you filling up the room entirely.
"Fuck, you're so wet baby." He groans into your neck.
"I'm gonna cum." You whine, teeth almost piercing through your bottom lip in between your whimpers.
"Need to taste you." He removes his fingers and sinks down in between your thighs, gripping onto them and pulling you just a teensy bit more off the edge of the bed so he can get a good angle. The sight of his eyes looking up at you in between your legs is to die for, and the sight alone is enough to make you cum. But, you hold on, you ride out for a little longer - feeling Jungkook's tongue swipe in and out of your folds before he's sucking endlessly on your clit.
"Ahhh, fuck, wait, Jungkook!" He slightly smiles while eating you out, signaling that he's not stopping even if you beg him to. "Hnnngâshit!" You moan loudly as you feel yourself toppling over the edge, your body shaking in Jungkook's grip. You twitch every time he continues to suck gently on your sensitive nub, letting you ride out the rest of your high. He comes back up to your lips, the taste of your own cum lingering on it as you kiss him deeply.
"You taste so good." He says, back to twirling your nipples in between his fingers.
"Wanna feel you." You fiddle with his jeans, undoing his belt and sliding the rest down as much as you could. Jungkook gets out of his shirt and tosses it aside before helping get the sweater above your head. His eyes glow at the sight of your bare body in front of him, wanting to do nothing but please you and please you well.
"God, you're so perfect." He places kisses down your collarbone, to the surface of your breasts before quickly swirling his tongue around your perked buds. You moan as you tug down onto his boxer briefs, immediately stroking his hardened member while he tended to you. Jungkook was a fucking beauty himself - his soft hair, his perfectly toned body, his long 'thick in all the right places' dick.
"Please." You plead. "I want you inside of me." You whimper, causing Jungkook's breathing to hitch when you slightly tighten your grip at the base of his shaft. He gently pushes your hand aside to take over, lining himself up at your entrance. He inserts the tip, watching your eyes roll to the back of the head as he slowly sinks into you.
"Mmmmmgod." He moans. "So tight for me, baby. So fucking wet and tight." He repeats, close to a growl. Your moaning begins to pick up, matching the pace of his thrusting. You're still on the edge of the bed, Jungkook keeping you steady by gripping your thighs tightly. He marvels at the sight of your titties bouncing up and down with every thrust, hissing and shutting his eyes momentarily to keep himself grounded and to prevent himself from coming too quickly. Cause god, he can literally blow any second now.
"Jungggggkooook, yessssss!" You moan loudly, whining even at this point with how good he feels fucking into you at such a fast pace. You're feeling slightly sore already from him hammering into you, but nonetheless, it builds more pleasure for you and you want nothing but to reach your high again. "I-I'm coming!" Jungkook moans in unison with you when he feels your walls pulsating against his cock.
"Such a good girl for me." He says, slowing his pace. The creamy sounds of Jungkook's cock slipping inside and out is music to the both of your ears. He finally gains the courage to remove himself, sitting next to your spot on the edge of the bed and pulling you onto his lap. You swing a leg over, your hands resting on the nape of his neck while you sink yourself lower onto his length. Your mouth opens to let out a moan, but the best you can do is let out a hiss. It feels too fucking good that you can't even process it thoroughly. Jungkook pushes your lips down onto his by grabbing your neck, his other hand guiding the movement of your hips as you roll into him.
"MmmgggâJungkook." You whimper in between kisses. "You feel so fucking good, god. You're gonna make me cum again."
"Yeah, cum for me. Cum all over me. It's yours." He grunts, his hands guiding you to work him faster. Your movements are getting sloppier, and you feel your wetness starting to coat his pelvis. He doesn't give a fuck though, and neither do you. This shit feels too good for you to worry about the mess you're making on him.
"Cum with me please." He moans at the sound of you whispering into his ear.
"Faster, baby." He says, almost making you cry at how awfully close you are to unraveling. You tug onto his hair, your head buried deep into his neck as you try and suck onto the surface, trying to find an outlet, some kind of release, until you let go. You suck harshly as you coat his cock with your cum, leaving a purple mark right at the base of his neck. You continue to ride out your high, rolling your hips sloppily as Jungkook finally lets himself go, his moan bouncing off of your walls as his seed fills you up warmly.
You stay in your position, slowly raising your head to cup his cheeks and kiss him deeply once more.
"Fuck, I love you." He says slightly pulling away.
"I love you too." You giggle.
"Didn't actually need any drinks to do this now, did we?" Jungkook jokes, softly pinching your hip.
"Shut up."
"Damn, you both couldn't even at least try to be quiet?!" Jimin yells from outside the door.

Im obsessed with ur coloring in the boys tattoos works!! Could you do the reverse? Where they color in yours? With whoever u want!
~Tokyo revengers members Coloring Their S/O Tattoos.~
Mikey | Draken | Baji | Chifuyu
{Heya! I didn't put much into it but I hope you like it! And thank you though!}
----------------------------------------------------------
M i k e y
You had no hesitation letting him color your tattoos. âHave fun, babe.â You pinched your cheek and relaxed under the big tree you were both sitting under. Today you had thrown all your plans away just to be with mikey all day.
The wings on your forearm was now stained in hues of purple and green with accents of yellow. âSo, besides today, how have you been lately?â Your gaze swayed from him to the inside of your eyelids as you were drifting to sleep slowly. âOkay, I suppose. School is annoying.â He laughed and your heart twinged with love.
You chuckled and looked down at your arm. "Mikey you done?" All you could hear was just a "hm".
âLetâs just rest for a little bit I'm tired.â You pushed the markers into the grass and your arm wrapped itself around his waist as you pulled him down and into your side. Mikey couldnât fight it as his ear was filled with the sound of your mellowing heartbeat. Your fingers danced in his hair till you knew he was fast asleep.
You stayed awake just looking at his angelic features as the sight of your multi-colored arm shifted your focus. It was so meaningless to him but you loved it as you knew that it came from his heart and mind.
It was himâ perfect.
~~~
B a j i
âY/n! â Baji called as he stepped into the large house. âI believe she's in the gazebo or her office, Mr.â One of the worked associates greeted baji at the front door. He grabbed the bags from baji's arms as he started walking. He was off towards the back of the house to find his fiancee.
âY/n-!â he called as he rounded the corner of the house and into the back yard. The gazebo was empty. He stopped and stared for a moment. He was sure that this is where she'd be.
âUp here, my love.â A voice said as he looked up to see Y/n at her office balcony. âHey thereâ he waved as your eyes squinted in a smile. âHow was your day out?â you asked as you brought your teacup up to your lips. âIt was okay~I have something to show you!â he called and held up a small shopping bag in his large hand. âIâll be right up!â he raced back into the house and up the stairs to where you already stood waiting for him in the doorway to your office.
âWhatâs so amazing that you found today?â your eyebrow raised and he opened the bag quickly. âBut first-â You interrupted you as you grabbed his face gently and gave him a passionate kiss. âWhatâs this for?â he asked as he continued to stare at your face lovingly. âJust happy to see you is all.â You smiled.
âNow, show mee.â he motioned to one of his hands that was stuck in the bag he held. He was brought back to reality and pulled the plastic package out of the bag.
ââŠMarkers?â you asked and your tone of voice made him laugh. âNot just any markers. Theyâre tattoo markers. Theyâre safe for the skin.â He corrected you and you rolled your eyes. âYouâre still on this?â You asked with an amused expression. âOf course I am! This was the deal and my love for you is way too much so.â he said shoving them into your hands so you could inspect the box.
You read the back and you had to admit he was right.
âYou said I could color your tattoos IF I found tattoo markers. Safe for the skin and everything!â You knew he did it and that you had to hold up your part of the deal. âOkay fine.â You sighed as you handed the package back. âYay! Beautiful Thank you!â He jumped and laid a gentle kiss on your nose.
âWe can do it later before dinner.â You agreed.
â-
âFinally! You take forever.â He sighed as you moved your sunglasses up your nose. The grass tickled your bare legs as baji sat next to you. âI couldnât help it. Chifuyu that jackass didnât want to hang up the phone.â he stood on his knees and moved behind you. His hands gently rubbed your shoulders as your head fell in an exasperated manner.
âI hate to burst your bubble, Y/n. But, I called you out here for the deal. Not a massage.â You whined as you flopped down on the grass, your t-shirt lifting on your back.
âIf this stains, I will make sure to throw out all color in your life. Your life will be a dull kaleidoscope-â âYeah, yeah, yeah. Whatever you say, you big baby.â He laughed and opened his pouch full of the tattoo markers.
He lifted the back of your shirt more till the full picture was revealed. A dragon with demons following was the full picture- a dark realityâŠthat he were going to make colorful. What can he do he loves your tattoos so much.
He sat on his lower back and got to work filling in the different parts of the dragon. Every once in awhile you would spasm and try to make him mess-up. Yet, with a slight tug on your hair, you would become limp and obedient again.
âIâm almost done.â Was the phrase that almost made you weep with joy. âFinally.â You let it slip and you felt a tug on your hair again. âOw.â You rubbed your head. You could feel him draw and move the felt-tipped weapons on his back.
âFinished.â He cheered and grabbed his phone to take a picture. He showed it to you and ombre scaled decorated the dragon with the demonâs faces were colored red and blue. It looked nice. You saw a couple of smiley faces hidden in there and felt like everything looked complete.
âOkay, my turn now!â You yelled and grabbed his arm. You struggled and pulled him to the ground and grabbed the black marker that was in his hand. âY/n, no.â he said strictly. âThis wasnât apart of the deal.â He expressed. âExcuse me? Sorry, I donât speak Japanese.â Your english rambled off quickly from your tongue. He decided to just deal with it as you took your time drawing a mustache on his face along with random doodles you could think of.
You finally stopped your antics and took a picture with your phone to look at afterward. âYou look so cute, look!â You pulled up the picture and shoved it in his face. âI look gross man!â He ridiculed but you wrapped him up in your arms quickly,
âMy gross man.â
D r a k e n
You were on your period and hell you were pissed, your mood swings were just making the situation more shitty.
Draken on the other hand was just trying to help you but every now and then you'd snap at him for absolute no reason. "Oi, can you stop whining for once?"
He said with pretty much no emotion at all. And that's all it took for you to break down in tears.
Draken was taken aback, "babe hey, hey, I'm sorry I didn't mean it like that please stop crying- I". âWanna play tic-tac-toe?â He asked and you looked around, surprised he was asking. âUm-â He didnât wait for an answer and grabbed your legsâ pulling you closer to where he sat.
Draken took the permanent markers out which was on the floor for god knows why. You wiped the rest of your tears and grabbed the orange marker out of his hand. He lifted the sleeve of his long shirt and created the grid in black ink. âWanna go first?â He asked and you took the opportunity to land an 'Xâ in the grid.
âFine. You win this tournament. But, I know Iâll win next time.â You said laying back and closing his eyes.
The bottom of your shirt lifted and he could see the familiar black ink on your side. âStop staring at me like that, pervert. I have rights.â You pulled your shirt down and he let a laugh rip through your chest.
âChill. I was just looking at your tattoo.â He said and you shrugged. âWhat about 'em?â You asked as his eyes closed once more. âNothing. Just looking,â he sighed, âI wanted to be a tattoo artist before all of this.â One eye peeked open and you looked suspiciously at his figure. âAre you any good?"
Draken just chuckled at your question.
~~
âGive me one!â You lifted the side of your shirt and waited patiently.
He shrugged, finding nothing else better to do. You already had black ink staining your skin so he decided to add on. It was another simple dragon but it fit your character and personality perfectly.
Time seemed to slow as you tried to take a sneak peek of the masterpiece he were currently working on. You planned to take a picture later and get it done, yet, it would have to be in secret.
All of a sudden, the bedroom door popped open. âWelcome back to Earth.â Mikey greeted. He capped the marker and helped you up.
"Why are you here" You asked while getting up, "Rude Y/n Chan, I'm still gonna answer your question though POLITELY, Ken-chin called us here so that we can go on a short trip or something to make your day better. Right ken-chin". Mikey looked over at draken, "Right whatever, can we go now?" He looked over at you for your response and all you did was kissed his neck because of your damn height and tagged along behind Mikey.
âWoah. You got a new tattoo?â Hina said as she lifted up your shirt and you shooed her hands away.
âEventually.â
C h i f u y u
"I GONNA THROW UP ON YOU WITH ALL MY MIGHT IF YOU TRY TO GET NEAR MY TATTOOS MISTER " You exclaimed loudly as he started following you like a lost puppy around the kitchen, where you were busy making your 'grilled cheese'.
"Babe C'mom little color won't hurt and it's not like I'm trying to bite your tattoos off-". " See, there you said it, you're exactly gonna bite my tattoos off" Chifuyu sighed having enough of your nothings, he suddenly back hugged you, you can feel his large hands wrapped around your hip.
"What do you think you're doing?". You asked as you turned around to see his face,
"If you're not gonna let me color your tattoos then I prefer to stick with you like a koala, and you sure as hell know I ain't letting go." Chifuyu said and you eventually gave up because you knew nothing will change even if you don't agree with fuyu.
So now here you are sitting on chifuyu's lap as he continued to color the wallflower on your shoulder. "You done?". "Hold on a minute babe it's almost over, -All done" Chifuyu replied.
You sat up and started making your way to the mirror to see what he actually did " Y/N!!! Wait" chifuyu voice said and you turned around to see your boyfriend running over to you.
"Wha-", before you could finish your sentence he lifted you up and threw you over his shoulder. "The actual fuck chifuyu, what did you do! PUT ME DOWN YOU ASS"
"It's just better if you don't see it ya know, and I'll make sure you don't see it until I leave" Chifuyu chuckled quietly as he continued making his way to your bedroom.

heyo~ i saw your kageyama and hinata in na poly relationsip headcanons and i was wondering if you could do that with kenma and hinata with a gn s/o? if his makes you uncomfortable in any way feel free to ignore this!
A/N: omg cutest trio going for sure! <3
Warnings: Polyamory
>>>>âââââââââ>
A Polyamorous Relationship with Hinata ShĆyĆ and Kozume Kenma would include:
âą You and Hinata are usually the ones to initiate physical affection, especially spontaneously, but Kozume readily accepts without protest. Unless heâs gaming then he might hold you back with his foot but thatâs your boyfriend for you.
âą If Kenma starts it, itâs usually very gently - like heâll slowly snuggle into your side if youâre sitting next to each other and you only realise once you go to move and bam heâs cuddling you. How? When? Now you canât move. (Heâs like a cat.)
âą Hinata is always so vibrant and it draws you into practicing Volleyball with him. Heâs even managed to get Kenma to be his Setter (for a max of 5 mins) whilst you blocked. Hinata will teach you anything you wanna know about the sport, and just enjoys you both partaking in what he loves. Heâll return the gesture too.
âą If you get bored, youâll ask to play with Kenmasâ hair - he says no, but ShĆyĆ is all for it and will sit in front of you for up to an hour without getting restless - wispy hums escaping every few minutes as he sparks conversation.
âą Seeing this, Kenma reluctantly plonks himself in front of you once Hinata has moved and doesnât say a word. Heâs playing on his switch but hands you back a hair tie or something which is basically the âgo ahead, do what you willâ. Hinata will probably try and do yours bless him.
âą Kenma is the one who judges you both the most, any antics that Hinata and you get up to is usually dissed - but somehow caught on camera the second you mess up.
âą âI hate you both.â Kozume - after youâve roped into something he deemed unnecessary.
âNo Kenma, you love us.â
â...Do I though?â Itâs his way of agreeing since he has a hard time saying âI love youâ when heâs flustered, how he hides his blush in his hoodie is all the evidence you need tbh.
âą âCan you sponsor me?â
âNo.â
âBut you sponsor ShĆyĆ, thatâs favouritism yâknow.â Youâre smirking at him, a light nudge to his side as he shoots a subtle glare your way.
âIâll show you whose my favourite kitten~â Itâs unexpected from him and youâre blushing furiously once he kissed you - then Hinata bursts in and is offended at the attention heâs not receiving.
âThatâs favouritism! We love equally in this house!â Then he tackles you both, and Kenma just mumbles either sweet whispers or profanity during the impromptu cuddle session depending on his mood.
âą But donât be surprised if you receive that item you were eyeing in the shops months ago the following day.
âą You and Kenma team up to watch Hinatasâ games, if you go to the arena heâs got the best seats in the house and Hinata will always wave to you guys.
If theyâre courtside seats, then heâll kiss you both before the game for good luck. Then either seeks comfort or just jumps the barrier into your arms depending on the games outcome afterwards.
âą Sometimes you stay at home to watch Volleyball though, the laptop in front of you and Kenma whilst sharing a blanket and snacks as MSBY play. In these cases Hinata either waves or winks directly at the camera for you guys - you both blush every time and swear he knows he has this effect on you despite being miles away!
âą When Hinata comes back from Brazil, he always has new recipes with him and ropes you into the kitchen to help. The two of gave fun and make a mess sometimes, Kenma can hear the giggling screams and always comes out to a creative dinner prepared by his two favourite people.
âą Kenma and Hinata will support whatever you do too, Hinata is enthusiastic to help you whilst Kenma has a variety of resources at his disposal if you need it. Very good boyfriends yes. Hinata has been known to fall asleep on your shoulder or in your lap if youâre working though.
âą Most of Kodzukensâ followers know who you are, since you and Hinata have gatecrashed his live streams multiple times. An iconic one that haunts Kenma to this very day was when you both kissed each of his cheeks and he became so flustered he couldnât utter a coherent sentence for 2 minutes. It was adorable - he kicked you out but worth it.
âą Hinata always invites you into his workouts and you agreed to go running with him. Kenma went with ânah and you canât make me eitherâ - you can, just plead a little and heâll cave.
If youâre not a runner, you and Kenma give up mid-way and walk to the nearest CafĂ© for breakfast - ShĆyĆ has lapped you guys by now and skids to a halt in front of the window like:
âWhat. Is. This?!â
Then you slide a protein shake and piece of fruit his way and all is forgiven, except that he made you and Kenma go on a longer run than agreed but... heâll make it up to guys.
âą Since Kenma established Bouncing Ball Corp and is wealthy, heâll take you both on national or international business trips. Plus heâll buy you gifts that he knows you really wanted but aimed to get yourselves.
âKenma! Itâs gorgeous but I canât afford it right now.â
âI know, thatâs why I brought it for you.â Heâs incredibly nonchalant about it, and is avoiding your gaze completely - but doesnât miss how theyâre sparkling.
âYes but I canât acc-â
âItâs fine, you made dinner for us yesterday.â
âThatâs not the same and you know it!â
âIts my way of saying I love you, now I need to trial this new game so just enjoy the gift ok.â Its muttered so fast as he leaves the room you donât get the chance to catch him.
⹠Hinata will burst in later wearing this brand new Atlético San Juan Team hoodie that Kenma ordered and immediately meets your gaze.
âHe got you too huh?â
âYep~ Iâm gonna bury him in hugs and kisses!â
âWait ShĆ heâs gamingâ let me help at least!â
Instant regret on Kenmas behalf, questions why he continues to do this whilst immobilised. Then he sees the bright grins on your faces and - ah thatâs why.
âą Thereâll be gaming marathons when you can allow, and they can get quite rowdy and competitive depending on company.
âą The house is usually full of life, either because of the resident sunshine or the familiar faces that constantly litter it. Youâll have Nekoma grads, pro Volleyball athletes and Karasuno grads over and sometimes at the same time since theyâre all familiar with each other since High School.
Itâs like home.
âą But you can always count on collapsing into the warm embraces of Kenma and Hinata after a long night of entertaining everyone. Itâs peaceful and youâll laugh about what happened all whilst fingertips dance across skin and hug each other close. Thatâs what love is though isnât it?
<ââââââââââ<<<<

Modern!au Felix Escellun x tattoo artist!gn!reader | Headcanons
a/n: Hey!!! Iâm back at it again with my beautifully fucked up request fill. Iâm still working on three other things, while I make you wait I took it upon myself to not starve this fandom. So here you have it. Please reblog or comment so that I have a crumb of motivation to keep up.
Should I do a smutty pt. 2 ? Who knows lmao.
Your hand slipped through the pile of designs that your colleague (and your close friend) had sent you to choose and pick apart from.
Unfortunately you were spending the night at the beautiful library of your uni, trying to balance off your school work with your actual work.
You didnât mind spending your time under the faint scent of books and the mere sound of wood beneath you feet, but what you âdoâ mind is the fact that the library is way colder than you thought it would be after the midnight.
Good thing that the yearning for finishing your work and leaving as soon as possible made it easier to concentrate on the task at hand.
It also made it easier for you to not notice the presence of an unexpected company.
That was until you felt the warm floral yet musky scent invade your senses as you felt the weight of cotton drape around your shoulders.
You slowly turn your head towards the owner of the coat whoâs already making their way out. Desperately trying to find a way to make them stop but failing to raise your voice because of the circumstances.
The last picture of the person buried in your head was their hair caressed by the wind and their quick steps.
Fast forward to a week later, going completely out of luck with finding a place to stay you decide to ask help from your friend whom interestingly has a lot to offer.
With things going a lot smoother than you expected you stopped by the tattoo shop to finish your appointments with couple of customers before you left to meet up with your possible candidate.
âDonât bother Iâll just call him here so you could talk comfortably.â
Your work seemed to take a lot longer than usual. So you kindly accepted your friends offer as you wrapped up the leftover stuff, finishing up the last customer.
âHey, oh-â
The sight of your guest tickled your memories as you kept glaring at the glorious figure in front of you.
Felix, completely avoiding eye contact, placed the fallen hair strand behind his ear as he kept his eyes on the table of the tattoo equipments.
You quickly got up as you grabbed his coat from the hanger and walked back where you left him.
âThank you for the coat, you really saved me back there.â
âOh- no problem.â
That day you two chatted and melted the ice in between. Deciding to rent the close by apartment and start your roommate era.
Your friend smiled to themselves knowing all too well that felix was completely crazy about you.
Your encounter at the library wasnât a coincidence either, well donât think of him as a stalker now, he just dumped a couple of coins in the fountain wishing that you would be there that night. Thatâs all.
As you two moved in together you realized that there were a lot of things to be âcaught off guardâ about him but you were most baffled by the tremendous amount of books felix owned.
âHey Lover boy ! Would you mind recommending me some of them ?â
Felix blushes terribly and you love it so much that you constantly bother him in order to catch a glimpse of his flustered state.
Unbeknownst to you, the pile that felix left on the doorstep of your room was consisted of the books that he thought of you as he read.
Felix, abandoning his night owl habit, decided to fix his sleeping schedule for the better. Definitely not because he wanted to see you at morning before you got off to the work.
Insisting on offering you a ride on your way back home with his nice car.
Nearly every single day.
He knows that it may annoy you but he knows how much you are devoted to your responsibilities so he at least wants for you to save a bit of energy before you dive into the work.
Speaking of his nice car, it tickled your curiosity so you decided to check the price tag on the web and... well...
âFelix... you donât so some sketchy illegal shit for a living right ?â
âItâs nearly impossible for me to work at the moment because of my studies. Why did you ask ?â
âYour car costs more than the apartment we are living in right now.â
With that, you discover that Felixâs father owns one of the most prominent chains of pharmaceutical companies and that he basically flee from his fathers mansion because he was pressuring Felix to take over his position in the future.
Being his puppet was not a thing to be tolerated in Felixâs book.
That being said, your domestic life with felix was pretty soft to say the least.
Cleaning together, cooking while talking about how your day went or getting to enjoy his expressions while he spilled his frustration against authors that didnât affect him well.
Occasionally noticing the new cooking books appearing out of nowhere
and the delicious smell of food welcoming you after work, quite often than you expect.
Finally, more skinship.
One day whilst you two got through the gates of your apartment block you noticed the open doors of the elevator so instinctively you held Felix by the hand and ran into the mirrored box.
What you didnât notice was the fact that you didnât let go of his hand as you two went up.
From that day on Felix used every single opportunity to sneak his hand into yours.
Donât blame him, itâs just that your hands are warm and the feeling of security that radiates from your fingertips is his medicine.
You absolutely avoided to tease or point it out to him because you knew that he would never do it again so you went with the flow.
You really enjoyed it though.
Snaking your arms around his waist while he is organizing the bookshelf. Feeling him shutter into your arms.
Nights became more and more enjoyable once he started to accompany you.
Everytime you caught him slacking on the sofa, you used his lap as a pillow.
Felix is extremely easy to figure out, mainly because he canât hide anything.
Also, well
He is ticklish and you use his weakness against him, a lot.
Diving your fingers down to the sides of his tummy you started to tickle every possible sensitive spot you could catch on.
âSpit it out.â
âI-I wanât you to- give me my first tattoo.â
Telling his words apart from his adorable giggles, needless to say you were ecstatic.
âAlright. What do I get in return ?â
âName your price.â
You thoughtfully stared at the ceiling, humming as you blurted out your very obviously well thought out response.
âI want you to show me what keeps you up all night.â
You canât be serious.
If you asked for an organ, he wouldâve been more compliant.
You didnât know what you got yourself into.
You basically asked for him to show you his âmasterpiecesâ that he showcases on AO3. Something that you were already well aware of.
âDeal ?â
âNo !â
âGood ! Letâs see what you got.â
Felix anonymously contributed to the community by writing some of the most famous slow-burn stories on the web.
Just so you know, his author persona blew up thanks to the mind blowing, earth shattering smuts he wrote.
Yeah you heard that right
Smuts
Well he is fucking panicking now.
Nonetheless days kept on going as felix prayed each night to every single deity that you forgot your âdealâ.
The days go on even if his worries donât.
Did I say that Felix is a whimpering, whiny mess ?ïżŒ he struggles to stay in one position as the needle drags upon his skinïżŒ.
âIf you plan to keep on moving, I might as well strap you down felix. 5 more minutes and then we are done. Please behave.â
When you put it like that how can he refuse I mean you made things worse he is internally screaming at what you just said but he is not going to refuse a command when itâs given by you.ïżŒ
ïżŒIn exchange for giving him a tattoo you decide to let him give you one even though heâs inexperienceïżŒd.
Heâs terrified because he thinks that something would go wrong, his hand would slip or something and he would scratch that pretty skin of yours with a horrendous tattoo.
But you assured him nevertheless and offered him to draw something very minimal and easyïżŒïżŒïżŒïżŒ. He accepted eventually.
As it turns out Felix is a natural. His hand is extremely steady and the tattoo turns out great.
Throughout the process heâs constantly asking if youâre hurt because he thinks that heâs doing something wrong but in fact heâs very delicate and gentle with the strokes and his touch.
You decide to be evil and use it against him. After you touch up your tattoo you lean in very closely and turn your cheek towards himïżŒïżŒïżŒïżŒ.
âWhat are you doing ?â He stutters.
âI canât possibly ask you to kiss my freshly made tattooïżŒ, so wonât you give me a kiss so that it heals faster.â
If his hands were steady before they werenât now.
ïżŒïżŒAs soon as his lips left your cheek you held him by his wrist and pull him back close again so that you can lean in onto his ear.ïżŒïżŒ
âDonât think that Iâve forgotten our deal. I am excited to see what you have in store for me tonight.â You winked.ïżŒ
Then the worst thing happened
The âtonightâ came.
Felix was running in circles around the living room with one hand on his forehead wondering what could get worse after this.
Maybe youâll be disgusted or scared hell if he knows.
He wanted to do nothing to harm your relationship in anyway because you and what you two have is all he ever wanted.ïżŒïżŒïżŒïżŒ
...and he believes that he has a tendency to ruin things.
But what happened was beyond his expectations.
Your eyes followed every single sentence throughout the screen, the white light traced your expressions as your eyebrows raised up and down and the corners of your lips inched closer to your ears. Your lower lip became a victim of your teethâs assaultïżŒïżŒïżŒ.
He was so confused. Still waiting for you to lash out or make fun of him, at least.
âI used to think âwhat am I gonna do with youâ when it comes to you. Mostly out of frustration.â
Yet here you were with the laptop closed shut and your arms behind your head as you closed your eyes and groaned.
Slowly the smile plastered on your face grew.
ïżŒâNow I know what to with you.â

U.N.I. | doyoung (m)
title: college love pairing: doyoung x black!reader genre: fluff, smut, college!au request: Thereâs suddenly a foreigner in his class (University of course). He teases her and always seems to stick to her side. The kick is, is that she finds out he likes her by eavesdropping [I wanted to give you room to flex that brain of yours bc your writing is like magic] word count: 6.3k warnings:Â emetophobia warning, alcohol use, sub!doyoung, handjob, oral (female receiving...and a little bit male receiving?), thigh riding a/n: shout out to anon for the new title idea cuz i be struggling lmaoo
Doyoung is curious.Â
You are new to his class, having joined a couple weeks after the semester had already begun. Youâre certainly not the first foreigner heâs seen, considering that the university is an international school that sees a wealth of students from other countries every year.
But still. Heâs curious.
You both sit in the same row, with you a few seats down from him. That makes it harder for him to sneak glances over at you without being too obvious or receiving weird looks from the other students who think heâs staring at them. Mostly, he contents himself with hearing your voice when you answer questions or occasionally talk to your other classmates.
Doyoung tries to think about how he might also get to talk to you without seeming weird or too random, which makes him feel even sillier because he usually doesnât have this much anxiety over talking to new people. However, he doesnât have to ponder over it for much longer when the professor decides to split each row into groups for an in-class assignment.
You and him and three other people from your row gather together in a circle, and there are a few awkward introductionsâas is the norm with classmates who havenât truly interacted with each other before.
âIâm Y/N,â you introduce yourself, glancing at the others sitting across from you.
They nod in acknowledgement, and Doyoung responds with, âItâs nice to meet you.â He makes sure to give his best welcoming smile, which you return.
Despite all five of you being in the same group, it soon becomes apparent that Doyoung is the best ally to have on your team. The other three students couldnât be less motivated about the assignment if they tried, mostly gleaning answers off the two of you.
By the time the period ends, you are more than ready to get the hell out and go to your next class. You can only roll your eyes at knowing theyâll get credit for work they barely even helped with. However, your bad mood is momentarily interrupted by your only other partner who bothered to helpâDoyoung.
âThanks for that,â he says as you pass by his desk. You stop and turn around, raising your eyebrows. âYou know, for...that.â Doyoung shoots an icy look towards the other people in your row. Only one of them meets his eyes, though they pointedly try to pretend like they never saw him as they gather their things and leave.
You watch the awkward exchange and canât help but laugh. âOh yeah, no problem. Itâs nice to have someone who actually cares enough to help.â
Doyoung instantly thinks your laugh is pretty, and he decides he wants to hear more of it.
âYou know, if you ever want to work together again, Iâm here,â he suggests. âI mean...youâre new here, right? So if you need any help with anything...just ask.â
You smile, grateful for the offer. âOh really? Thatâs nice of you. I might just have to take you up on it...because I really donât know a soul here.â You check your phone. âShit, I should be getting to my next class. See you later. Thanks again!â
Doyoung waves as you leave the classroom, wanting to say more but knowing youâre busy, and he hopes that you really do consider his offer.
The next class doesnât involve groups this time, much to your reliefâand Doyoungâs as well. Doyoung still finds a way to talk to you without having to do group work, though; and the best part about it is that he doesnât even have to do anything.
âHey Doyoung,â you say, coming to stand by his desk at the end of class. He perks up in his seat at your presence, giving you an amiable smile.
âHey Y/N, how are you?â
âIâm fine, though I do feel a little lost at the moment.â
Doyoungâs eyebrows draw together. âWhatâs the matter?â
You laugh and shake your head, a little embarrassed to tell him. âOkay, like, I have a map of the campus and everything, but I keep getting lost trying to go to classes and itâs kind of annoying...plus I donât need a bunch of tardies in my first month here.â
âYour professors still care about that kind of stuff?â
âYep. Unfortunately, I didnât get any of the cool ones who donât give a fuck about someone coming in lateâfor a class Iâm paying for. Amazing.â
Doyoung smirks. âSo you need a tour guide, is that it?â
You shrug. âIf youâre up for it. I donât wanna take up too much of your time, you know, if youâre busy. This campus is unnecessarily huge.â
Doyoung gathers his bag and stands to his feet. âOf course I can help the damsel in distress.â
âDamsel, huh?â You snort. âWhatâre you then, a knight in shining armor?â
âI can be if you want me to be.â
âYou a comedian or something?â You give him a look between incredulity and amusement, a bit surprised at him being so brazen. âLetâs go then, brave knight. Help me find out where the Student Affairs office is before I completely lose my mind.â
Just as you asked, Doyoung leads you right to the Student Affairs officeâand to a bunch of other places on campus, which youâre not entirely sure youâre going to remember. At least you have him to walk you through it until you memorize everything.Â
Finally, you both stop in a grassy area of campus with a few benches nearby, standing under the shade of a tree. Doyoung turns to you. âIâve dragged you all over this campus now, so I guess the least I could do is buy you a coffee or something.â
âYou did it because I asked! But...if youâre determined to pay, I wonât stop you.â You laugh.
âDo you remember where the coffee shop is?â Doyoung asks, like heâs a professor giving you a pop quiz. You sweat because youâve already forgotten, and you screw your face up in mock concentration.
âUmm...that way?â You point in a random direction and he chuckles when itâs wrong. He grabs your arm and guides it to the right direction, which is behind youâright in the area you just came from.
âNo, itâs here! Letâs go. Weâre gonna need to spend some more time out here later.â
By the end of the day, youâre surprised by how comfortable you already feel around Doyoung despite only talking to him for the first time in your group assignment the other day. He appears to think the same of you, if him sliding you his number is any indication.
âI know we have a class together, but if you want to talk outside of thatâŠyou know where to reach me now.â He taps his fingers against the table youâre both sitting at. âI think youâll definitely be needing another tour soon.â
âI tried my best.â You sigh dramatically, placing your chin in your hand. âBut thanks. Iâve got your number now, so donât feel a way if you see me bothering you more often.â You flash him a teasing grin.
Doyoung shakes his head goodnaturedly at your statement, taking another sip of his coffee. âSomehow, I donât think Iâll mind.â
Though you do call on Doyoung to help you get around campus a few more times, he ends up hanging around you a lot more often outside the guise of being your personal tour guide.
Whether itâs to go to the library, visit a fast food place off campus, or even see some sports game, heâs never far away. During your first month of being at school, heâd simply explained it as wanting you to get familiar with the sights in and around campus so you wouldnât get lost again. However, it quickly culminates in him randomly asking you to go places just because he canâand because he wants to.
Youâre glad for his companyâmuch more than youâd let him know, not wanting to come off as too clingy. Though Doyoung seems like the type to be all about his studiesâwhich he mostly is, and itâs not a bad thingâhe also knows how to have fun and how to make you laugh, even explaining jokes in Korean that go over your head.Â
He makes you feel remarkably less alone while adjusting to living in another country, far away from home. It also doesnât take you long to find out that heâs good for teasing you to no end, which often makes you want to roll your eyes or flick him in the forehead, but even his banter reminds you of your friends back home. Youâre incredibly grateful for that small piece of familiarity.
After a couple months of finally settling into the campus life, you, Doyoung, and a few of his friends decide to go to a frat house party, along with Seulgiâa girl youâre becoming close to in another one of your classes. Youâre not entirely sure what to anticipate, but the experience is quite similar to what youâd expect to see back in your home countryâthe same drunk dancing, endless shots of alcohol, loud music, and men who are far too grabby for their own good.
Speaking of that last pointâŠ
You and Seulgi dance together amongst a flood of bodies, which is fun for a while until random men keep trying to drag you away from each other to dance with them instead; some of them are more agitated than others about being rejected.
âCollege guys are dangerously horny.â Seulgi laughs, though she also cuts her eyes at a small group of men nearby whoâre giving you both ravenous looks.
âKinda wish theyâd go be horny somewhere else,â you say, and then you roll your eyes when yet another hand brushes against your waist. You turn to see who the culprit is this time, but itâs only Doyoung, and youâre palpably relieved to see him. âYouâre back! Seems like youâd disappeared forever.â
âYes, I am. Someoneâs excited. Did you miss me that bad?â He smirks.
âOh, please. Iâm just happy youâre here so the creeps will go away.â
When you say this, his expression instantly morphs into one of recognizable concern. âIs someone bothering you two?â
âNot really, these dudes are just weirdly pushy.â Seulgi giggles, trying to wave it off. The last thing you all need is to start an argument or a full-out fight with one of these frat guys.
âForreal. Therefore, you should act like youâre my boyfriend until the night is over.â You declare this unabashedly, linking your arm with Doyoungâs. For a second, he seems flustered at your suggestion, and then his face settles back into the same cool countenance as before.
âFine, since you want to be next to me so much.â You elbow him at that. âThatâs a good save for you, but what about Seulgi?â Doyoung asks, looking at the other girl. She is unbothered, though, and casually grabs his other arm.
âPoly relationship. Ever heard of it?â Now he really is flustered, and you laugh out loud at his expression.
You spend a good portion of the night like that, all three of you linked together as the perfect âthrouple,â with some people at the party giving you interesting looks. When Johnny sees you all, he throws you and Doyoung an expression reminiscent of a grinâbut somehow more deviousâand Doyoung only twists his mouth up in a sneer. You donât know what any of that interaction means, though it makes you wonder.
Seulgi eventually decides she prefers Johnny to be her fake boyfriend instead of Doyoung and goes off with him to do...whatever it is they went to do. Youâre sure you can take a guess, though.
After the other two take their leave, you and Doyoung eventually end up on the back porch. Itâs a little cooler out here than it is inside, though still a bit crowded with lingering couples and groups. Youâre both bunched up in a small corner against the side of the house, leaning over the railing to look out at the backyardâwhich is mostly just trees and bushes.
âWell, how are you enjoying your first college party?â he asks, casting a questioning glance your way.
âItâs fun. I think I could see why some people end up spending all their time on this instead of studying, ha.â
âHey, donât become a party girl âcause Iâm not gonna do all your homework for you.â Doyoung snickers.
âOh, Doyoung. I wouldnât expect you to, youâre not even good at science.â
He sucks his teeth and tucks his chin into his arms to hide the grin playing across his face. Itâs quiet again for a little while, or as quiet as it can be with the others on the porch talking and laughing.
Doyoung peeks at you from underneath his fringe and thinks about what he should say next. Something like...not that, butâŠwell, what if he did? Would it be terrible if he said it now, right here at a crowded frat party on some rickety back porch? Maybe, butâŠ
Doyoung pushes himself off the railing and looks at you, tracing your profile with his eyes. Maybe the alcohol has taken more effect on him than he initially thought. âY/NâŠâ he starts, and you glance at him.
Just then, a red-faced dude whoâs obviously incredibly smashed stumbles over to where you two are and promptly throws up on the floor. Some of it gets on Doyoungâs shoes, which causes him to jump back and curse loudly.
âAre you a fucking idiot?!â
âThatâs disgusting,â you groan, turning your face away from the mess. Youâd probably laugh if it werenât so grossâand wasnât right next to where you were standing. The guy doesnât pay either of you much attention, though, because heâs too busy slumping against the railing like heâs going to pass out. Maybe somebody should worry about that, but it wonât be either of you.
âUgh, for fuckâs sake...come on.â Doyoung takes your hand and carefully steers you around the mess, heading back indoors and maneuvering through the thick of the party. Youâre not sure where heâs going at first until you both end up in some cramped bathroom, with him pulling his shoes off and running them under the tub faucet. You lean against the door, feeling like you need to stand guard so no drunken couples will burst in, even though itâs already locked. Youâre not quite sure why he brought you along for this little ride, but youâre not complaining; itâs better than being left outside.
You look at him sitting on the edge of the tub and angrily wiping his shoes as best he can with toilet paper, and you giggle, though you try to keep it quiet. However, you canât stop more giggles from pouring out at his comically pissed-off expression. Doyoung looks up at you with his eyebrows creased, a confused and irritated look coloring his features. âWhatâs so funny?â
You shake your head, unable to speak for a few moments. Doyoung tilts his head to the side and looks at you impatiently while you try to catch your breath, though his upset face only makes you want to laugh more. âIâm sorry, but from where Iâm standing...thâthis is pretty hilarious.â You burst out into laughter again. âIâm locked in a bathroom with you at a college party while you scrub vomit off your shoes. If this doesnât make us friends for life, nothing will.â
To your surprise, he actually cracks a cynical grin after a few moments, shaking his head and sighing. His shoulders heave with the gesture. âI hate university sometimes.â
Doyoung tries not to think too deeply about that âfriends for lifeâ comment, though to his irritation, it stays in his head for days after the party. Even after heâs nearly forgotten about the shoe incident.
You go to the library one night to find an academic journal for an upcoming paper. Youâre not happy about having to make the trek, especially in this digital era when everything imaginable is usually readily accessible online, but it is what it is.
At night, the library becomes more of a hangout spot rather than a place for studying, and you donât entirely expect to get much reading done in there. Youâre hoping thereâs an empty room or something you can duck into to take some quick notes on the information you need.
Finding the journal takes a bit of searching, but you finally locate it on a shelf near the back of the library. Youâre about to leave the aisle and find somewhere to read it when a couple of people walk into the aisle in front of yours. By their voices, you know itâs Doyoung and Johnny.
You decide to peek over and say hi, but before you can get to the end of the aisle, you hear their heated conversation. You stop in your tracks and listen, which you probably shouldnât be doing; but youâre not sure if you want to interrupt this talk theyâre having once you hear what theyâre saying, either.
âYouâre being ridiculous. Just tell her!â Johnny hisses under his breath like he wants to talk louder but doesnât want to be too distracting in the library. Ever so courteous of him, but you doubt anyone else really cares at the moment.
âHyung, not everybody is like you. Itâs not easy to just go up to someone and say you like them.â
âYou act as if youâre gonna be talking to a stranger. She knows you and you know her, you hang out all the time. Itâs more likely that she does like you than she doesnât.â
â...You really think that?â
âShe lets you tell all your unfunny jokes without much complaint, so yeah, Iâd say she must be head over heels for you.â
âShut the hell up. Unfunny jokes? Youâre one to talk!â
You listen to the conversation intently, wondering who this mystery girl Doyoung apparently likes could be. Heâs never told you about having a crush on anyone, nor has he made it obvious that he likes someone else. Although you know he has other friendsâJohnnyâs obviously one of themâyouâre not sure what girl he hangs out with all the time besides you.
Johnny chuckles. âDonât be mad that Y/N laughs at my jokes more than yours.â
Your eyebrows raise at this. Wait. What does this conversation have to do with you? Unless.
âYeah, youâre supposed to laugh at a clown,â Doyoung retorts.
âWhatever, Doyoung. You just do what I told you. Itâs seriously so sad watching you pine over Y/N like there isnât an easy solution for this.â
Youâre reeling with shock by now, but their voices are also getting closer to the end of the aisle like theyâre about to walk into the very one youâre hiding out in. You run away before they can spot you, though you do end up drawing a few peculiar glances from some other library goers.
You eventually find a quiet, uncrowded space to sit down and take notes in, though you can hardly concentrate on the work at hand with this new information in your mind. Doyoung likes you? Doyoung likes you. Then that must be why he always messes with you, and why heâs practically been glued to your side since you got there.
Your hand tightens and loosens around your pen repeatedly as you mull over this knowledge. The longer you think about it, though, a smirk grows on your face.
The week after, you and Doyoung have one of your regular study sessions together. Youâve dressed up for it more than you normally wouldâthe same thing youâve been doing throughout the week, too. Even if Doyoung doesnât know what you know, you get a bit of fun out of dressing up to catch his eye. And it definitely works.
He always steals glances at you when he thinks you arenât paying any attention, and you get infinite amusement out of whipping your head around to try to catch him in the act. The light blush on the tips of his ears and his startled bunny look is worth it every time.
âYou got so dressed up just to study? Youâve really been going all out this week,â Doyoung comments as you sit down at your usual table in the library. He gives a small smirk as he scans your new outfit for today. He does this as if heâs only teasing and evaluating your clothes, puckering his lips in concentration, though itâs also an excuse to check you out.
âYou could just say âyou look so fucking fine this week, Y/N.â I know you want to say it, anyway.â Doyoungâs cheeks flush a little, and he shakes his head.
âYouâre something else. Okay, you look pretty. Does that satisfy you?â
âWell. You forgot the âfucking,â but Iâll let it slide.â
You both get into your work and a calm quiet settles between you, punctuated with you occasionally asking each other questions about the assignment. At some point, you grow a little bored with staring at the text for so long, and you stop and simply look at Doyoung sitting across from you in one of his favorite hoodies and his glasses. Something tender rises in your chest, a sensation you hadnât quite given a name to until now, and you put your cheek in your hand, grinning slightly.
âI wonder why someone like you doesnât have a girlfriend yet.â
Doyoung looks up as if heâs not sure if youâre talking to him, then furrows his eyebrows. âSomeone like me?â
âAw, you know, youâre handsome and caring and smart, and you can even be a little bit funnyâeven though you get on my nerves sometimes.â Doyoung rolls his eyes at the last part, though you know heâs preening at your compliments.
âI donât know, Iâm busy with studies.â
âBut isnât there even one person you might like? Or might be interested in?â Doyoungâs not looking at you anymore, his eyes dropping back down to instead focus on his book, but you notice how his fingers tighten around the textbookâs edges.
âUmâwell, I havenât really thought about thatâŠâ
âReally? No one in your dorm or your classes has caught your eye?â
Doyoung shifts a little and clears his throat. He shakes his head in response to your question, though the movement is hesitant. âWhat about you?â
âChanging the subject, huh? Excellent method of evasionâŠâ You flip a page in your notebook, pointedly avoiding Doyoungâs gaze even though heâs peering up at you again. You wait with your lips clamped together, trying not to laugh as his expression grows more impatient.
âWell?! Arenât you going to answer, after forcing me to?â
âI will when you tell the truth.â You slap the notebook closed, which causes him to jump, and this time a laugh does slip out. Doyoungâs eyes dart around your small section of the library like there might be someone else listening, or like heâs searching for a prank camera.
âThe truth about what? I already told you!â
âThen what about what you told Johnny?â
Doyoung freezes for a moment, and various emotions flit across his face. He finally settles firmly on embarrassment and disappointment. â...He told you? Iâm going to kill him.â His voice is softer now, like he would disappear completely if he could.
âNo, Iâokay, donât get mad at me, itâs not like I did it on purpose, but I heard you two talking in here a week agoâŠâ
âOh...shit. Youâyou were there? And you didnât say anything?!â
âYeah. Not very discreet, huh? Maybe you want to do that in your dorm room next time.â Youâre still smiling. Doyoung shifts nervously again, as if he just wants to get up and run the hell out.
âSo, umâŠyou know, then.â
âYep.â
âIf you donât like me, you can just say so,â Doyoung blurts out. âI...itâs fine. I donât expect anything of you, so we can really just forget all about this. I promise I wonât make things weird, Y/N. I just...I just found myself really liking you as we got to know each other.â
âYou canât make things weird when youâre already weird.â You giggle and place your hand over Doyoungâs, grasping his fingers. âSo...letâs date, then.â
He looks at you questioningly, surprise taking over. âWait, youâre serious?â
âIâm serious.â And now youâre a little embarrassed yourself, but you continue, âDoyoung...I like you too. I guess I donât totally hate all your teasing. But donât get cocky about it.â
Doyoung rearranges your hands so your fingers are now laced together. A relieved smile makes a home on his lips. âWell, too late. Now youâre never going to hear the end of it.â
âOh, I canât wait.â Your response is sarcastic, but the smile on your face is totally genuine.
That weekend, Johnny leaves the dorm to go visit some of his other friends in town, which means Doyoung will have the room all to himself for those few days. Normally his plans would consist of studying, trying to catch up on sleep, or seeing what his other friends are up to, but with you as his new girlfriend, he wants to spend that time together.
âSo, this is your dorm,â you say, holding Doyoungâs hand as he leads you into his shared dorm with Johnny.
ïżœïżœHome away from home, I guess,â he says, leading you over to his bed so you can sit down. Before he can let go of your hand, you tug him to you and gesture for him to bring his face closer to yours, like youâre going to whisper something to him.
âWhat is it?â he asks. Heâs quickly silenced by you pushing your lips against his in a kiss. When you both separate, itâs reluctant, and Doyoung pecks your mouth once more before straightening up again. You laugh at the slightly goofy grin on his face.
âWhat should we do?â you ask, getting more comfortable on his bed and leaning against the wall.
âI had movies in mind, but we can do anything you want.â
âMovies are fine! Hurry and start it up, Iâm gonna get cold without you beside me.â
Doyoung gives an overexaggerated cringe, and you hide your face. âAnd you complain about me being cheesy?!â
You both make it through two and a half movies before you start getting antsy with sitting in the same spot for so long. Doyoung is still lying calmly beside you, his arm around your shoulder and the other behind his head as he continues watching the movie. Deciding to act on a whim, you abandon all pretenses of watching any more of the movie and swing your legs over his own so youâre sitting in his lap. When you situate yourself in his lap, he seems a bit starstruck, as if he wasnât expecting this to happenâlike, ever.
âY/NâŠâ Doyoungâs voice is surprisingly soft, like the day you revealed your feelings for each other. Itâs a noticeable departure from his usual demeanor. He blinks at you for a couple moments.
âWhat?â you say innocently, copying his actions and blinking back at him.
Doyoung swipes his tongue across his lips, though itâs more of a nervous gesture than anything else. âYouâre...you know.â
You chuckle. ââYou knowâ? Letâs use our words.â
âYouâre, uh...s-soft,â is what he stammers out, like it was the only thing he could think of at the last minute.
âAnd you should be hard, but youâre not yet. So letâs fix that. If you want to?â You quickly tack the last sentence on, trying to give him an out if he really doesnât want this. However, the hands that suddenly go to your hips make you think otherwise.
âDo it, then.â He provokes you, trying to regain his usual confidence, though it still comes out less forceful than intended.
You bring your hand to his crotch and palm him over his pants, and Doyoung takes a deep breath. You bring your lips to his, kissing him deeply and adding to the pleasant feeling. He kisses you back eagerly, flexing his hands on your hips and gripping you more tightly. You end up making out like that for a little while, and he grows underneath your palm as you tease him.
Eventually, you want more than simply feeling him over his sweatpants and pull them down, exposing his bulge. You donât touch him for real, not just yet; instead, you trace your finger along the shape of his dick underneath the material of his boxers. Doyoung whimpers against your lips at that touch, very quietly, but audible enough for you to hear it over the TV in the background.
âDonât get all sensitive on me now.â You pull away from his mouth and laugh. âWhat happened to all that teasing you love to torture me with?â You drag his underwear down so you can release his member, which is still growing underneath your caresses. Precum is already beading at the tip, flushed with need. Doyoung looks down at your hand holding his dick and worries his lip as you begin stroking him earnestly now.
He leans his head back against the wall, and you watch his throat work as he swallows and tries to keep his sounds quiet. The soundproofing in these dorms certainly isnât the best; the people on the other side of the wall have kept him awake enough nights to know that. The few moans he does let go are low and pretty and soft, and they fit him perfectly.
Though you are stroking him mostly for his own pleasure, you do take the time to explore his dick while you have it in your handârunning your finger over a vein that stands out against the hot skin, sliding his precum between your fingers and using it to get the rest of his shaft slick. You take your time with him, but he doesnât seem to mind the leisurely pace.
âDo you wanna come in my hand?â you ask him, and his body tenses as you reach further down to tease his balls. Another bead of precum runs down his shaft.
âThat would be a waste,â Doyoung huffs, and he shifts his leg a little so his thigh is tucked between your legs now, your heat pressing right down on him. He moves his thigh back and forth slowly across you, and you let out a long, shaky breath at the way the muscles of his leg flex and release against your clit.
âThen where do you wanna do it?â You still your movements on him for a few seconds but keep your thumb on his tip so you can tease the sensitive slit there, and another choked groan comes from him.
âT-take a guess,â he says, and pulls on your hips again so he can drag your pussy over his thigh more firmly. The friction makes you whine.
âMaybe I should just make you cum like this, since you seem more interested in making me ride your leg.â You go back to steadily stroking his cock, tightening your grip on him. His mouth drops open a little at your actions.
âY/N,â he whispers breathlessly, and lifts one hand to pull at your sweater. âTake this off.â
âThen take yours off.â Doyoung strips his sweater off as soon as you say it and waits for you to do the same. His mouth goes to your breasts once theyâre free. You grin at the pleasurable sensation and run your hand through his hair, pushing him closer to your chest. Your other hand goes back to his dick, and it twitches when you make contact. âI really think you could cum just like this, with you sucking my tits and me jerking you off. Wouldnât you like that, Doie?â
Doyoungâs face flushes at that claim, though he doesnât deny it. He simply keeps sucking at your nipples and leaving marks across your chest, flexing his thigh against you for added stimulation.
You want him to come first, so you spit in your hand for more lube and stroke him faster, the slick sound of your hand on his cock filling your ears. His moans are more frequent now, though he still tries to hide them; all the while, you try to pull more out of him. If the people next door know whatâs going on, theyâll just have to enjoy the free entertainment.
âY/N,â he pants against your skin, and his body tenses up more underneath you. You pull his head away from your chest so you can tuck your face into his neck, placing your lips over his beating pulse and feeling the way his muscles jump under the slight touch of your mouth.
âYou donât wanna come in my hand, right? Where do you want it, then?â You keep your lips close to his ear and slow your pace to make sure he doesnât come too soon.
âIâŠumââ
âDonât be shy now, youâre about to come, arenât you?â You twist your hand over his tip and he groans low in his throat; the sound vibrates across your lips.
âI...in your mouth.â
You sit back to look at him, grinning devilishly. âSo thatâs what you like? Fine then, baby boy.â You remove yourself from his thigh, which is noticeably damp now, and position yourself between his legs with the tip of his cock pointed towards your mouth. You lean forward a bit to take the head between your lips, rubbing your tongue against the sensitive underside of it, and Doyoung comes quick with a soft cry. His cum floods over your tongue in thick, salty waves, and you keep sucking the tip until he has no more to give.
You get back onto the bed after youâve swallowed everything, and before you know whatâs happening, Doyoung has turned you on your stomach and is pulling your panties and sweatpants down in one fell swoop. âDoyoungââ Your sentence breaks when he lifts your hips up and his tongue parts your lower lips, sliding through the slickness and pushing into your hole. Your words melt into a moan as you arch your hips more to get closer to his face.
âDoyoung, y-yes, pleaseââ You curl your fingers in the fabric of his comforter, panting harshly against the material as Doyoung dips his fingers and tongue into you like heâs starving. His tongue on your clit is maddening, circling back and forth and making your legs shake as you try to balance yourself in this position heâs tugged you into.
His fingers find what theyâre looking for quickly and he teases your g-spot, thrusting into it only sometimes and leaving you wanting all the other times. In the very back of your mind, you wonder if what he said about being too studious for relationships is true, because how else would he have learned to do all this? God.
When you get close to coming, Doyoung takes some mercy on you and crooks his fingers into that soft spot more consistently now, and you cry out as you tighten around his fingers. Itâs beautifully, wonderfully satisfying. The soft sounds he releases while he eats you out make you even weaker, as if he canât hide just how turned on he is from tasting you.
Your climax hits you suddenly, and by the end of it you are laughing softly with the intoxication of how good you feel, how good heâs made you feel. When he finally pulls back from you, you let your body fully collapse against the small mattress, and Doyoung rests his head against your thigh momentarily, as if he himself is exhausted.
âI...wanted to do that for a while,â he says, and you canât see his face but you think he must be blushing, with how sheepishly he admitted it.
It takes a bit of shuffling but you eventually end up lying side by side, stripped bare and looking up at the ceiling. The movie has long gone off, and thereâs nothing but Netflixâs slideshow of new shows and movies playing on the screen now.
After a few more moments of nothing but the sound of heavy breaths, you say, âWe are having round two, like right now.âÂ
âYouâre already addicted to me, huh?â Doyoung chuckles, dragging his knuckles over your side and making your skin tingle. You smirk and throw your leg over him, and he groans at how your pussy slides over his hardening length.
âBy the end of the night, you wonât be able to get enough of me.â

Tell us more about tiller like whatâs her backstory
LOVE her design
SURE THING!! (And thank you!! She's been through a couple iterations but I'm pretty psyched about how her design has solidified!!) This is gonna be a lot so I'll put everything under the read more. Genuinely, thank you to everybody who takes an interest in Tiller!!!
Okay, so strap in for the backstory. Tiller was raised in Nassau during the Golden Age of Piracy. She has two loving fathers named Jimmy and John (and they run a sandwich shop together haha). She had a very regular and happy childhood; she'd go to school, make friends around town, go to the beach and have picnics with her dads, help out around the restaurant, etc. The only odd thing was that for as long as Tiller could remember, she had had a tattoo of a sea serpent going up her arm. Her fathers told her that they found her that way as a baby, and didn't know what it meant. It was a mystery for sure, but hey, Tiller didn't really mind a cool tattoo and she didn't even know where to begin finding answers. So she let it fade to the back of her mind while she had fun living her life!
In her late teens, Tiller started getting antsy about going out and exploring the world. She felt a draw towards the ocean and took a great interest in marine life, ocean currents, and star-charting. She wanted to know what was beyond the island! And besides all that, her dads' business was hitting tough times, and she knew they needed money (though her dads would never ask her for it). Thus- Tiller signed up to be an intern navigator/cabin hand for the Royal British Navy. She was brought aboard a ship called The Nightingale, captained by Lieutenant Warren Elliot. She bid farewell to her dads and sailed off.
Quickly, Tiller learned that life was different with the Navy. Everyone was cold towards her, she worked long hours with no appreciation, and the pay was little (but she still mailed her earnings back to her dads regardless). And above all that, Captain Elliot was cruel. He either insulted her or acted like she didnât exist, as if she was below even thinking about. About a year into her work, she'd seen him execute someone trying to desert. It was then that Tiller got very scared. She wanted to leave, but she was in the middle of the ocean. Where was she to go? What was she to do? Maybe not being noticed was a good thing.Â
A few months later, The Nightingale was set to return to the coast. However, before they could get there, they were attacked by pirates! Tiller wasnât a fighter and stayed hidden during the chaos. Though the pirates put up a good fighting spirit, the Navy had much more firepower and overcame them soon enough. The mysterious pirates were sent to the brig, and Captain Elliot wrote up an order for them to be hanged upon reaching port. When Tiller emerged from below deck, she saw that the attacking ship bore a flag with a sea serpent emblem on it. It exactly matched her tattoo.Â
That night Tiller snuck down to the brig to speak with the prisoners. They were wary of her at first, but after she showed them her tattoo and asked them about it, she learned that they all had sea serpent tattoos! They told her that they got their tattoos by the normal means, and didnât know what it meant to be born with it but! They knew all about the sea serpent symbol. It turns out that she was talking to the The Sea Dragon crew, named and themed for the oceanic deity; a giant sea serpent that is a common myth among sailors and pirates alike. Tiller saw an opportunity. Both for answers and for escape. She made a deal with The Sea Dragons. She would sneak them the cell key and then make a distraction on the other end of the boat. During the distraction, The Sea Dragons would make a run for the life boats. In exchange, they would take Tiller with them. They agreed and got to work.Â
Tiller mightâve learned that night that she had a flair for the dramatic (plus having absolute Zero fun for like 2 navy years might enhance that desire). She needed a distraction and found the gunpowder supply. One lit match later, Tiller was running for the life boats while the rest of the ship exploded with fire and panic. She was almost there when she was blocked off by, of course, Captain Elliot. He learned of her betrayal, of the escaped crew, he was furious. He said she would die along with her âcriminal scumâ if she wanted to join them. He swiped at her with his rapier and landed a burning slash across her right eye. Tiller didnât have a weapon, she couldnât get past him. Anywhere would be better than here. She ran for the nearest railing and jumped overboard.
Tiller was plunged into the dark waves. Despite how vast and cold the sea was, the underwater was a relief. It almost felt like the ocean was holding her. Tiller couldnât see anything, between the blood in her eye and the black depths. Which way is the surface? Suddenly, a hand grabbed her and pulled her up into the night air. Tiller blinked away the salt water, and it was The Sea Dragons! They had deployed the lifeboats already and were waiting for her. They all fled the scene, leaving The Nightingale a fiery speck on the horizon.
Ever since then, Tiller has happily turned to a life of piracy, and is a proud member of The Sea Dragon crew.
Everyone was thick as thieves in no time. Though some didnât take to trusting a recent Navy deserter right away, Tiller won them all over eventually. Her eccentric nature was far better suited to a pirates life. She became the navigator for The Sea Dragon ship, The Quicksilver, and she assured them they would never be lost again as long as she was with them! And most importantly, they cared for each other. The Sea Dragon crew were from all walks of life. Everyone ranging from colorful to dangerous to shy to stoic. Tiller felt like she belonged. They became her family.
Tiller kept sending percentages of her treasure back home to her dads. However, she didnât tell them about her new employment. She was worried they might be disappointed in her somehow, or theyâd get in trouble if they knew they were getting stolen gold in the mail. She would write home often, but she kept up the ruse that she was still in the Navy.
- - - - -
AND THATâS THE TILLER BACKSTORY! These are literally the events that happened BEFORE the dnd campaign started. Thereâs tons of other Tiller drama happening in-game, which range in relevancy to her backstory. Also Iâve done a few Navy/backstory centric drawings if you wanna check those out!!

GF & MvsM - Wanna Talk About Dinos?
This crossover was inevitable. It just works too well. Maybe one day iâll write a fic about how the folks at Gravity Falls handled the robot-apocalypse. Probably shrugged it off. âEh. Weâve had worse.â Haha! What if Stan and Ford, cuz they were out sailing, had no clue what happened and when they came back they were like, âWait, what?â
For now, please enjoy this fic of Aaron making a new friend...
(credit goes to @stephreynaart for her OC Jacob) ~~~~~~~~~~ âHi, would you like to talk to me about dinosaurs?â
Aaron asked this question more times than he could keep track of, but that wasnât going to stop him from asking it. It started as a dare from his big sister two years ago, but now itâs a fun hobby. When fifth grade isnât overwhelming him, scaring him with mountains of homework and horror stories about how hard middle school is going to be, and when heâs run out of YouTube videos to catch up on, he is on the hunt for fellow giant-lizard-lovers like a hungry Ceratosaurus.
âNo, okay bye.â But it did get a little tiring to always cross out names and phone-numbers on the phone book with red ink. Hey, a dinosaur of a way to find phone-numbers was appropriate. He read the next number, dialed it, and after a ring or two he asked, âHow would you like to talk with me about dinosaurs? No, okay thank you.â
Aaron crossed out another name and sighed, taking a break since he reached the end of a line of numbers. Maybe he should just be grateful for Abbey and accept that no one else wants to talk about the Jurassic Period. Or the Cretaceous Period. Or the Triassic Period. But then a big, old, gray-tinted ad distracted him. He grinned, thinking it would at least be fun to give them a call, and he dialed the number.
Private home phone-numbers were fun, but businesses were also fun! Poor, bored workers would gladly talk to him rather than crabby Karens, and they got paid for it! So Aaron smiled as the phone rang, and he grinned when someone picked up.
âThanks for calling the Mystery Shack, youâre talking to Mr. Mystery himself! How may I befuddle or bewilder you?â
âHi! How would you like to talk with me about dinosaurs?â
âOh, dude! Iâd love to, but Iâm scheduled for a tour of the Oddity Museum in three minutes.â The man said, and Aaron grinned continuously, because it sounded like Mr. Mystery really wanted to talk with him about dinosaurs. âBut hey! Can you hold on for one minute, I think I know a guy!â
âYeah, sure mister!â And Aaron was greeted by the sound of a catchy jingle about buying t-shirts and mugs and snowglobes. He smiled and wiggled his feet along to the music as he looked outside at the beautiful late-fall afternoon, entertained while he waited.
~~~~~~~~~~
Soos was on the hunt. He planned out the house in his head. Abuelita was taking a nap upstairs, Melody was organizing the upcoming tour, and Stan took Jacob out for ice cream, so he might beâŠ
The owner of the Shack grinned when he stopped at the doorway and saw the man he was looking for, sitting in Stanâs chair, reading a book.
âUncle Ford!â
The old sailor smiled up at the young man. âYes, wh-...â
âDo you think you could answer the phone for me? I have a tour and I think this customerâs request is right up your alley.â
âUh⊠sure, but w-...â
âThanks, youâre the best!â And Soos was gone before he could address Fordâs confusion.
Ford was a bit lost, having little to no business with business, but he had learned at this point to trust Soos, so he picked up the phone beside him and was immediately greeted with a sweet, âHow would you like to talk with me about dinosaurs?â
Ford grinned and closed his book. âI would love to! All three periods are equally as fascinating to study, but the Triassic contains some of my favorite dinosaurs!â
A young voice gasped on the other line. âMine, too! Everyone thinks the Jurassic period is so great, and itâs pretty cool, but the Triassic gave us Plateosaurus and the Brachiosaurus!â
âThatâs very true! You know, itâs very interesting, maybe depictions donât include feathers at all, which is a bit frustrating, but perhaps after the news has spread they will incorporate more feathers on merchandise and textbooks.â
âYES! Thatâs what I wanna do when I grow up, help draw better-accurate dinosaurs!â
~~~~~~~~~~
The phone rang on Sunday. The Shack was closed today, so Stan lazily answered it and was greeted with, âWanna talk about dinosaurs?â
âSixer, phone for you!â
Ford ran into the living room, elbowed his twin out of the chair, and took the phone. âHello again, Aaron! Now, where were we? Right, so Australopithecus. ⊠No, I donât think⊠Oh! No, homo habilis was erect, Australopithecus was never fully erect.â
âMaybe he was nervous.â Stan groaned, getting to his feet.
Ford shot him a look as thankfully the young boy on the other end didnât catch that and happily shared some more fun-facts about homo habilis.
~~~~~~~~~~
While most college students were excited for Spring Break so they could get drunk or lose their virginity, Katie was excited because her family had planned a special secret roadtrip. She was careful to keep up with her family and talk to her parents and brother frequently, but Aaron had a hobby he wasnât talking about that his parents found out and were thrilled about. Aaron had made another friend.
Rick and Katie did some research and the tourist attraction sounded right up their alley! In the middle of the woods, tons of weird stuff, and a fun roadtrip filled with diners and attractions. They decided to surprise Aaron, and they made up a lie that they would spend Spring Break in California with Katie so she could show her family around San Francisco, when in actuality they would be traveling up the state to the Redwood Highway and see the oddity place, and maybe even allow Aaron to meet his new pen-pal. Or, um, phone-pal.
So after bombarding Katie with hugs the Mitchells threw her luggage into the car and drove off. Aaron turned to Katie and excitingly asked, âSo where are we going first? Can we go fix the Golden Gate bridge by painting it gold?â
Katie laughed and ruffled his hair. âMaybe later, right now I wanna show you guys this fun store right outside of town. Here, check out the videos I made for my classes!â And she pulled out some airpods and gave one to Aaron.
âCool!â
Rick and Linda smirked at each other as they drove north. By the time they reached a little diner in Redding, CA, it was very clear to Aaron that they werenât in San Francisco anymore. âCome on, just tell me where weâre going!â The boy begged as he fed Monchi a fry.
âThe best kind of prizes are the surprises.â Linda quoted.
âEric, Deborahbot5000, where are we going?â
âSorry, Aaron, we cannot give that information.â Eric said, he and the other robot sitting politely in their seats, happy to be a part of the social interaction.
âYes, Mother will bury us if we disobey.â Deborahbot said matter-of-factly.
âWhat?! No I wonât, sweeties.â
âWonât you ground us?â
The family laughed and Aaron let the topic go; if he was honest, he loved a good surprise. The big family stopped in a motel just at the California-Oregon border, and the next morning after muffins and coffee and orange juice they were on the road again, passing dozens of trees that made Rick feel at home. Katie happily recorded the trip, trusted to be the documenter for another fun roadtrip, with hopefully not as much mortal peril.
Aaron watched as they left the highway for a simple road, and they passed a big sign. The boy gasped and caught what was happening. âNo WAY! Really?!â
âYou know, I hear this Mystery Shack even has a Sasquatch.â Rick commented while Linda pulled out a pamphlet from the glove box.
âIt says here itâs full of odd things youâll never see anywhere else, even a dinosaur footprintâŠâ
âWasnïżœïżœïżœt there a rumor of there being a Bottomless Pit?â Katie asked, pointing her camera at Aaron to get his reaction.
âThank you thank you THANK YOU!!!â Aaron cheered, hugging his Dadâs neck and kissing his Momâs cheek.
âHey, no worries, buddy.â Rick eased, fixing his shewed glasses. âWe wanted to see this place, too!â
âWhy donât we eat a quick lunch and then weâll take the backroad for the attraction? Thereâs a coupon in here for a diner made from a giant log!â
And so after being served by a pretty blonde teenager at Greasyâs, they drove through town to get to the backroad. Signs made them confident that they were going the correct way, as well as Eric and Deborahbot5000âs GPS. Then as they turned a corner, a big triangle-shaped building came into view. Aaron grinned at the giant sign with a missing letter. People were already leaving, arms full of souvenirs and one or two already wearing their new hats or t-shirts. Once Rick parked in the Free Parking Lot, Aaron spilled out of the car and ran for the shack, but he stopped.
Katie caught up to him and patted his back. âYou cool, man?â
Aaron shrugged, holding his hands in front of him and his shoulders up to hide his face a bit. âI-I dunno⊠What if⊠What if he doesnât like me?â
âHey, I get it.â Katie admitted. âWhen I first met my friends I was really nervous. I had talked to them online for weeks and I was worried it wasnât gonna be what it was all cracked up to be, but it was. Your system worked! You found another dino-lover! You earned this moment. Just take in a deep breath and be yourself, cuz youâre a pretty cool dude.â
Aaron smiled up at his big sister. âThanks.â
Trusting Eric and Deborahbot5000 to watch Monchi and make sure he used the bathroom, the Mitchells went inside the shack. On the porch there was an ice cooler, a sign reading schedule times for tours of the Oddity Museum, a Help Wanted sign, and two rocking chairs with a game of checkers between them.
Inside the store a few customers filled up the gift shop, alongside t-shirts, snowglobes, a vending machine, a door beside ti that read Employees Only, a bookshelf full of comic on one side and old newspapers claiming alien sightings on the other, a fish tank holding a monkey-mermaid, and barrels full of spaceship keychains and dino claws. A new section called Camping Stuff caught Rickâs eye, selling backpacks, lanterns, flashlights, batteries, canteens, and compasses. Katie opened a comic called LilâStanley and laughed at the swears, taking a pic and sending it to her friendsâ group chat. Linda looked into the barrel full of patches and grinned at all the fun designs, while Aaron stared happily at the mer-monkey.
The Employees Only door opened and closed and Rick watched as a man in a suit, fez, and eyepatch walked up to the lady at the register and kissed her cheek. The woman smiled lovingly and left while the guy who resembled a gopher checked a customer out. Rick waited until the buyer left to approach the register, leaning an arm on the counter.
âWelcome to the Mystery Shack, dude!â
âThanks! So, this is gonna sound weird, but my son Aaron talks to a guy here about dinosaursâŠâ
âNo way!â The owner interrupted excitedly. âGood to see you, dudes! Iâm Mr. Mystery! Wow, you guys came a long way, huh?â
âNah, only from California. My daughter is attending art school there.â
While the men chit-chatted and Linda joined them, Katie noticed a guy walking up to Aaron and looking at the mer-monkey. She smiled and tried to read the comic without being too nosy, but she kept her senses on her brother.
âHm, quite fascinating, isnât it?â The man in the blue hoodie said. âBut I think my favorite is the fossilized footprint. Could be Nanuqsaurus hoglundi.â
âThe Polar Bear Lizard?â Aaron clarified, touching his chin as he looked at the dino-print, his back to the man he was talking to. âMaybe, but theyâre from Alaska. Itâs possible plate tectonics did cause some fossils to be relocated here, but it could also be a Nanotyrannosaurus lancensis footprint.â
âThe Dwarf Tyrant? Could very well be. Would you like to talk about dinosaurs after your tour?â
Aaronâs eyes widened as the voice was finally familiar to him. He turned and looked up to find an old man smiling up at him. He had fluffy gray hair with a white stripe running around his scalp, wrinkles by his eyes due to smiling, a cleft chin, glasses, and wore a blue hoodie with a maroon sweater underneath. His hands were behind his back and he smiled down at Aaron warmly, while the boy was jittery and overly-excited. He took in a sharp breath and had to fight every muscle to keep from leaping through the screen door.Â
âH-H-HiâŠâ He peeped. He cleared his throat and tried again. âY-Yeah, sure! Iâd love to! Iâm Aaron! Er, wait, you already knew that.â And he held out a hand to shake.
His phone-pal, Ford, chuckled and got on one knee to be eye-level. âGreeting, Aaron! Itâs nice to formally meet you.â
Aaron shook his hand and noticed something. He had six fingers on his right hand. A quick glance told Aaron he also had six fingers on his left hand. Aaron grinned with sparkling eyes at his new friend, while the old sailor smiled warmly at the boy that reminds him of his niece and nephew when they were young.

Hey Iâm that one anon from a while back that sent those long ass paragraphs about Lilith and Simeon, remember me? Anyway I know Iâm very late to the party, but some of the boys are either getting to much hate or too much love over here (in my opinion) so I made a pros and cons list for all of them, Iâm sorry- (Iâm warning you now this will be long but Iâll put it in bullet points so itâs a bit easier to read, just read it whenever your mentally ready lol)
Lucifer (I hate this man.)
Pros
Heâd help a lot with getting your life together wether that be finding a job, choosing the right college or other shit like that
Heâd make sure your working hard and getting everything done, which is both a blessing and a curse tbh
He would be the one to take the most care of you whenever your ill psychically
Cons
He would probably overwork you
Doesnt have much time to spend on you and doesnât make a effort to find more time unless your getting really sad about it
Probably wouldnât be the best of help through issues with mental illness (he just doesnât strike me as that type, feel free to disagree)
His pride would cause some serious problems in relationships :/
Mammon (I love this man.)
Pros
Heâs the âif your sad, Iâm sadâ kind of guy so he does whatever he can to put a smile on your face
Makes his affection towards you known once heâs comfortable enough, mostly through things like hugs and head pats tho
He shows off anything you make, and I mean anything (you gave him a drawing? After showing it to everyone he puts it on the fridge. You wrote something? He reads it to everyone then puts it in his notebook to reread later, I think you get where Iâm going with this)
Cons
There would probably be some communication issues due to his tsundere nature and habit of ignoring you when heâs mad
Heâd get super mad at you when your trying to help him financially, maybe itâs a ego thing or maybe heâs just tired of hearing it
While his possessiveness is cute at times heâd definitely get way to overbearing if you donât force him to cool it
Levi (I kin this man.)
Pros
Heâd try to set up designated hangout times (like Friday is movie night, Tuesday is for RPGs etc)
Wanna spend time with him but arenât very into what heâs into? While it will be harder to bond with him because of this I think if you REALLY wanted to hang with him heâd at least try to meet you in the middle (like if you like sports heâll offer to play wii sports lol)
Insecurities getting you down again? Well never fear, levi is here! Heâd find characters with flaws similar to those you see in yourself to prove that they donât really matter (and since he struggles with insecurity himself heâd know how you feel and be one of the best at helping you through them)
Cons
Even if he makes an effort to meet you in the middle if you have different interests heâd refuse to get into ânormieâ stuff
Heâll guilt trip you constantly, even if itâs not on purpose (âOh your hanging out with Asmo today? I get it, of course youâd wanna hang out with somebody cool and perfect like Asmo and not a gross yucky otaku like meâ)
You have to initiate almost everything Hugs? You hug first. Handholding? You reach out to him. Confessions? You seriously thought heâd be the one to confess first??
Satan
Pros
Similar to Lucifer heâd be good at helping you get your life together and putting you on the right track
Unlike Lucifer, heâd actively make time for date nights and/or hangouts multiple times a week wether your going out for dinner or reading in front of the fireplace
While he himself might not be best at helping with comfort in the moment, heâd be great to turn to if you needed a long time treatment (you need a therapist? Heâs got the best three in your area that you can afford and he found some helpful things you can do in this book)
Cons
As stated previously, heâs not the best with comfort, which can be an issue if you need a friend/partner who can be your biggest source of comfort (Iâm not saying heâll do nothing, itâll just be kinda awkward ig)
If you vent to him about something heâll always offer advice and while that can be good, sometimes all you want is someone to listen to you and getting advice can be annoying in the moment
I feel like hanging out with him youâd rarely ever get to talk about pointless things, everything would be serious you know? And while serious and deep conversations are good for bonding, some people (myself included) need to be able to talk about dumb things without having it turn philosophical
Asmo
Pros
Heâs the best at boosting your confidence, thereâs no competition
Heâs more into spontaneous outings (he suddenly got the urge to go shopping, your coming with right?)
You can talk about just about anything with him, no judgment and heâll never speak a word of it to anyone else if you donât want him to (although he may brag to his brothers that you told him your secrets)
High emotional IQ
Cons
He has set things of things heâs interested in and his idea of trying the things your into is doing whatever it is for about 5 seconds then deciding itâs not for him
He cares a lot about looks, I donât mean heâll hate you or insult you cause he thinks your ugly, I mean heâll constantly try to do your makeup, hair, and nails and heâll always say things like âYour hair is a bit messy today, did you brush it? Yes? Well not good enough, let me do itâ and âyour wearing that out? Thereâs nothing wrong with it, I just think youâd look a lot cuter in thisâ and if your anything like me, thatâll get on your nerves a lot
While heâs great with emotional issues, if itâs a problem with anything like school or your job heâll have no solution to offer, all youâll get is a âYou can do it!â and a good luck kiss
Narcissistic, need I say more?
Beel
Pros
Heâs the best person to vent to, no judgment and tons of hugs and comfort food
Heâs a mom friend, no explanation needed
Very supportive and always concerned for your health
Your in trouble? Call beel, heâll help you and make sure your home safe before questioning you and will only lecture you out of love (unlike a certain older brother that will lecture you because âYour tarnishing Diavloâs reputation by acting out like this. Your an exchange student, you must abide by the rules and behave yourself.â)
Cons
Food is his answer to everything (Sad?Food. Injured? Food. Schoolâs stressful? Food plus a little help studying) and while food can be good for comfort, sometimes you need him to provide more than a snack
Heâs the opposite of Satan in the sense that heâll almost never offer advice when you rant to him, he just assumes getting it all out is help enough and wonât offer much more then a hug and food
Not getting along with one of his brothers? âThey can be a handful, but theyâre great people once you learn to handle the chaosâ yeah he rarely thinks what his brothers did is a big deal so he gives you advice on how to apologize and get past it and heâll give you food
Belphie (he really does attract the mentally ill people huh-)
Cons
I feel like heâd be good for certain people with social anxiety and people who have issues with always being scared about being a bad person (âyou think your a bad person and are becoming more and more toxic by the day? Well your a better person than Lucifer thatâs for sure, wether or not your toxic were going to cuddle now get in bedâ or âyour worried everyone is constantly staring and judging you for everything you do? Well I donât really care about what your wearing or the way you walk so I doubt they do either, can we go home now?â ((Side note, I experience both of these issues and his uncaring personality would calm me, which is why I think this one of his pros))
He just wouldnât care about whatever type of life style you lead and as someone whoâs constantly scared of being judged for their lifestyle this would be amazing (âyou sleep all the time? Same letâs nap togetherâ âYou donât eat very healthy? Whatever, itâs fine, can we sleep now?â ((although it is a double edged sword))
He gets a burst of energy and just does the most random things (you see that tree? Heâs already climbed half way up it. That petting zoo? Heâs already feeding the lambs. That store? Heâs already spent 30 grim)
Cons
Just like his twin he thinks every problem has one solution, but instead of food he thinks the solution is sleep (your sick? Sleep is the best medicine. A lot of homework? If you sleep you donât have to think about it.)
At some point he just doesnât care enough, if you come to him with a serious issue heâll half listen to you rant then pull you down to sleep
He teases you a lot, which is fine teasing is fun, but he takes it too far. Maybe he touched on something your insecure about or he was too merciless, whatever it was, he wonât apologize for it, he just thinks your being sensitive. If he brought up some bad memories heâll consider it, but his way of apologizing is cuddling
He doesnât wanna do something? You guys arenât gonna do it. You donât wanna do something? Too bad, he wants to so your gonna.
Iâm sorry this is so long- I tried to shorten it I swear- but anyway if you disagree Iâm with anything, I wanna hear what you think
And even tho Beel doesnât get much screen time and more serious moments, I think his character is way more then hunger
Random but I wanna add that other then Levi I kin Tamaki from mha and Ranpo from bsd
Dude do you just like torturing poor college students? This is so much to read, Iâm about to cry đ
I agree with the Lucifer part actually! Tho I do kinda thing heâs be good emotion support in some ways, for me, anyway. I feel like he may lack empathy that is needed in a stable relationship. Yes, he may be able to tell you with shit and honestly, heâd book my doctors appointments when Iâm too anxious too so yknow. But yeah
Also agree with mammon. Heâs a jackass when he wants to be, and I know he may not mean it, but his words are still hurtful in a lot of ways and he just canât convey those emotions thatâre needed in a loving relationship. But heâs so sweet and will show you off so itâs all good~
As much as I love Levi, I agree. He manipulates and guilt trips you throughout the entire game. It canât be healthy in relationships but that donât stop me from loving that sweet otaku boy đđ€
I agree with Satan too. I donât have much to say but heâs avatar of wrath for a reason, for a start, and he honestly looks like heâd prefer talking about books than that funny thing that happened in class that made you laugh earlier
Agreed with Asmo too. Sometimes he may just get overbearing and the narcissism and the constant need to make you look better and improve you may get irritating
I agree with Beel. I donât think he can comprehend that food isnât an answer to everything and as a person who doesnât cope with food and relatively hates it, he wonât be any help to me emotionally. Heâs so sweet but he just wonât give you that proper support
I love Belphie so so much but I absolutely agree. Heâs one of the most unbothered brothers who wonât care what you look like, yes, but that also means compliments may come rarely and like his twin, âsleep is the answer to everythingâ I can admit I like to sleep but I have a manic side that comes with insomnia and if heâs dragging me down and not letting me move and I just cannot sleep, Iâm gonna get irritated and pissed off.
This got a bit long on my end too. I just really liked how you worded this and it was fun to see pros and cons of the âperfectâ brothers
I think Beel is more than food too, but I just donât particularly like him either way cuz Iâm not really a foodie so I canât relate with him lmao

-Little Crosby- |D. Cozens| [Part 1]
Itâs finally here! @workhorsefromwhitehorse24â and I have been working on this for a while now and I can honestly say that this is probably my favorite thing weâve collaborated on! This was a little outside my comfort zone but I enjoyed writing it so much! Hope you enjoy! Let us know what you think!!
âAva Grace Iâm home!â Dad calls from downstairs. I sit up and grab my sweatshirt off of the floor.Â
âComing!â I say as I pull it over my head and run out into the hall. I attempt to make it down the stairs without dying but almost fail as I get to the bottom step. âWhoops! Sorry!â I yell as I knock one of the pictures off the wall. He stands in the kitchen doorway and watches me, amused, as I fix the picture then turn to face him, a grin on my face. He had been gone for 2 weeks on a 5 game road trip, resulting in the Penguins going 4-1. Dad scored a pair of goals in the first two games. But sadly, it wasnât enough of a push to get them to the playoffs.Â
âHi Daddy!â I say, running to hug him. He lifts me off the ground and kisses the top of my head. Dad and I have always been super close. Itâs been just him and I for years. Ever since I was born, itâs just been Dad and I. Grandma and Grandpa were always in the picture too, along with Aunt Taylor. The 4 of them have been my entire world and my family for the past 17 years. My mom has never been in the picture since she and Dad had me when they were super young, before Dad was in the NHL. Dad had moved from Nova Scotia by himself when he was 15, down to Faribault, Minnesota. Mom and Dad met within his first week of school. Dad tells me I look just like her but from what I can tell, the older I get, the more I look like Dad. But basically one thing turned to another, Dad had his first taste of freedom, being away from his parents and all, and 9 months later, I was born. As soon as Grandma and Grandpa found out, they moved Taylor and everything else down to be with my dad and help out with me. But one Saturday, Mom dropped me off with Dad and told him she had decided she wanted more than raising a baby and my dad so she left me with Dad and left. Iâve never heard from her, except for one birthday card when I turned 6. Grandma and Grandpa raised me alongside Taylor until Dadâs first season in the NHL. Thatâs when he moved me to Pittsburgh with him. I mean, before he was in the NHL, he made sure that he was a part of my life and made sure I knew that I was his little girl. But it hasnât really been that big of a deal that Mom hasnât been in the picture since Iâve had Dad, Grandma and Grandpa, and Aunt Taylor, plus all of Dadâs teammates through the years. Itâs been a ride, having a dad like I do. I mean, heâs pretty much the face of the NHL and one of the greatest players to ever play hockey, being Sidney Crosby and all. Everywhere we go, he gets recognized so it was always hard for him to come to my things as I was growing up. But he always made sure that someone was there for me, whether it was one of my grandparents or Aunt Taylor. But even through all of that, my dad is my best friend. Iâve never needed anyone else.Â
âI missed you so much!â He says, setting me down and looking at me. I smile and nod.
âI missed you too! Nice set of goals by the way. Sorry about the playoffs...â I say, smiling as he walks into the kitchen. He shrugs as I follow him into the kitchen and sit down at the table, watching him wander around the kitchen, making one of his shakes he always drinks.
âIt was a long two weeks for sure, but Iâm glad I have you to come home too.â I nod and smile.
âOh Sweetheart, before I forget, weâre going up to Toronto next weekend for the Leafsâ first playoff game, for your birthday. Weâll spend two weeks up in Toronto.â The Penguins missed out on the playoffs, ending their season early. But my Leafs made it to the first round of the playoffs. He smiles as my face lights up. The Toronto Maple Leafs are my favorite team. As disappointed as Dad was in me when he found out, he still supports it, just happy that I like hockey. My favorite player is Mitch Marner, which is a player Dad approves of. He raised me on the ice, around his team and made sure I loved hockey as much as he does. I played for 6 years but I decided I liked watching hockey better than playing.Â
âReally? We are?â I say, giddy.Â
âYep, I think Tanger and Geno are going to come with us. I invited Taylor too, figured we could make a whole vacation of the trip. We can go out to dinner, shopping, all the fun, girly stuff you love. Oh and thereâs a surprise flying out to see you too.â Kris Letang and Evgeni Malkin are Dadâs alternate captains and my honorary uncles. Up until about 4 years ago, I had 3 honorary uncles. Marc-AndrĂ© Fleury, the Penguins' goalie and now the Vegas Golden Knightsâ goalie was the third. He and Dad are still close which means he still claims the third honorary uncle spot. When he got married in 2012, I was the flower girl. Iâve actually been in all 3 of my âuncleâsâ weddings. Theyâve been a huge part of my life since I was little, even when Dad was trying to keep me out of the spotlight.  I smile, pushing my hair out of my face. I think the thing that everyone always finds so interesting about Dad and I, is that he did such a good job keeping me out of the spotlight up until I was old enough to understand what was going on. But as soon as I started going to events with him, everyone knew I was his daughter. I mean, I look and act like a female version of Dad so it makes perfect sense that Iâm his daughter.
âAva girl, do you want to see if one of your friends wants to come with us? Might be a little boring to spend your birthday weekend with a bunch of old people.â Dad says, finally sitting down with his gross shake. I nod and laugh, thinking of who I could invite. I go to Shady Side Academy in downtown Pittsburgh, which is a big, fancy private school. Thereâs a little over 1,100 kids that go to my school, but only about 70 of them are in my grade.Â
âOh, Iâll invite Carter. Let me text her and see if she can go.â Carter James has been my best friend since 2nd grade. Sheâs my total opposite and somehow, it works.Â
âOkay Honey. Iâm going to go lay down for a little bit. Our flight left pretty early this morning so Iâm pretty tired. Go ahead and order something for dinner. Anything but pizza please.â I pout a little, my bottom lip jutting out. He smiles and drops a kiss on the top of my head as he walks out of the kitchen and up the stairs. I walk out to the living room and flop on the couch, getting on my phone to watch Tik Tok for a while. Suddenly, the door to the house flies open and my Aunt Taylor waltzes in.
âHello my absolute favorite niece in the entire world!â She calls, dumping her purse and everything in her hands onto the bench by the door. Grandma decorated the entire house. Dad was going to hire a decorator but Grandma insisted and somehow, Dad ended up liking what she did with the place.Â
âIâm your only niece so I hope Iâm your favorite. But hey Aunt Tay. Whatâs up?â I asked, sitting up.
âNothing much. Just came home to drive my big brother crazy and talk about your birthday trip with you. How excited are you? Hey wait, isnât it your 18th birthday?â I smile and nod again. Aunt Tay is a little scatterbrained and once forgot how old I was turning and bought me a 13th birthday card. I was turning 11. But of course, she always means well and loves me a ton.Â
âCarter is coming with us. Do you know what the surprise is? Dad just told me there is one but didnât say anything else.â Taylor grins as she nods.
âIâm not telling you but just know this, youâre gonna be really really excited.â She says, sitting down on the couch by my feet.Â
âSo howâs things at school? Still thinking about going to UPenn?â She asks, tapping her thumb against my knee. I sigh.
âUgh I donât know anymore. I fell in love with UPenn when I visited there with Grandma last fall but I donât know if I want to be that far away from everyone. I mean, itâs only 4 hours but going from how things are now to that? Thatâs a lot to process.â She nods, watching me.Â
âWell Honey, you know your dad would make sure you had a car on campus and everything. So you can always come back home and visit. But I mean, itâs been you and your dad since you were a baby. Maybe itâs time to go out on your own a little?â I cringe a little at the thought.
âI donât wanna leave!â I say, falling into Taylorâs lap and drawing out the end of the word. She laughs and smooths my hair down.Â
âWeâll figure something out. Youâve still got time, Ava Grace.â She says and somehow, those words make all the anxiety I have about college and everything else coming up in my future fade to a dull roar instead of the screams it has been for the past couple weeks. Iâve always been able to talk to Dad about anything which is why he and I have such a good relationship now. But the one thing I havenât been able to talk to him about is college. Dad went straight from high school into the NHL. He always claims to understand but Iâm pretty sure it just confuses him sometimes.Â
âOkay you two, itâs very hard to sleep when all I can hear is laughing and carrying on.â Dad says, coming back downstairs.Â
âYeah yeah, keep it down, Patrick.â Taylor says, looking up at Dad. Dad hates being called by his middle name which is why Taylor calls him that. He rolls his eyes and bats her hand away as she reaches up to poke him. When the two of them are together, Grandma always says they act like they did when they were little.Â
âHave you girls figured out everything for us leaving on Thursday? Ava, is Carter going with us?â I grab my phone off the arm of the couch and turn it on, quickly reading the notifications on the screen.
âYeah sheâs going. And sheâs gonna be here in 3, 2, 1!â I count down as the door bursts open again. Carter and my Aunt Taylor are two peas in a pod. Theyâre practically the same person which is why I love them both so much.
 âHello Crosby family!â She shouts, sliding across the floor and landing on top of me.
âOh this is going to be a long two weeks.â Dad says, laughing and rubbing his forehead.Â
âSo weâre going to Toronto for your 18th birthday? And to see the love of your life? Hell yeah this is going to be a great trip.â Carter says, looking up at me.Â
âOkay, Carter James, slow down please.â I say, patting her head.Â
âWait, isnât the legal drinking age in Canada, 18?â Carter asks, sitting up and looking at Dad.
âOh my God Sidney Patrick. Youâre taking your daughter to Canada to drink for her 18th birthday?â Taylor says, looking over at Dad with a smirk on her face.Â
âTaylor Jane, youâd better cut it out or youâre not going anymore.â He says, shaking his finger at her. Carter and I laugh and Taylor rolls her eyes.
âSheâs responsible enough to handle this. You two are the ones I have to worry about.â Dad says, pointing at Carter and Aunt Taylor.Â
âTanger and Geno are going too? Oh this is going to be a blast!â Taylor says, rubbing her hands together and grinning evilly. Dadâs head drops into his hands and the 3 of us burst out laughing. Carter and I spend the rest of the evening planning our trip out while Dad and Aunt Taylor watch the St. Cloud game. The week leading up to our trip to Toronto flies by, but my excitement for the game only builds. Itâs not the first time Iâve been to a Leafs game, nor is it the first time Iâve gotten to watch my favorite player play. But itâs happening on my 18th birthday and that makes it even more exciting.Â
Thursday morning, two days before my birthday, Carter wakes me up by bouncing on my bed.Â
âWeâre leaving today!â She sings, bouncing more. I roll over and groan.Â
âCarter James, itâs too early!â I say, shoving her. She laughs at me and I sit up.
âCome on, weâre going to dinner with the love of your life tonight!â She says. I jump out of bed and look at her, eyes wide. Iâm 100% a Mitch Marner fan girl. Carter thinks itâs hilarious but sheâs the exact same way for Patrick Kane. We ran into him at the Stanley Cup Finals one year and she was speechless.Â
âWhat are you talking about? Dinner with who?â I ask. Dad walks in and is now standing in my doorway.
âI called in a few favors and weâre going to dinner with Mitch Marner and Morgan Rielly tonight. How does that sound?â He says, as my mouth drops open.
âOh my God thank you thank you Daddy!â I say, running over to hug him. He smiles and Carter laughs.Â
âSheâs gonna faint as soon as she sees him. Total freak out.â Carter says, crossing her arms and laughing.Â
âI am not! Iâll be perfectly fine. Itâs just another hockey player. Not like Iâm in love with him or anything.â I say, pointing at her. She rolls her eyes and we both laugh.
âWhere my favorite birthday girl?â I hear a deep voice call from downstairs.
âGeno, itâs too early for you to be this loud. Shut up.â I hear Taylor say.
âI take it G and Tanger just got here?â Dad calls and Taylor groans in response.Â
âAlright girls get ready and weâll leave in a little over an hour. Go down and say hi to everyone first though.â I nod and follow Dad downstairs, Carter tagging along behind me.Â
âHi Uncle Geno, Uncle Kris!â I say, running to hug both of them as they stand up from where they were sitting on the couch. Taylor is taking up the other end of the couch, facedown in a pillow. âAre you excited for your birthday trip?â Kris asks, patting my back as he hugs me.
âIâm so excited. Do you know what my surprise is? Dad still wonât tell me.â Geno laughs, still too loud for Taylor apparently because a pillow goes flying across the room and just misses his head.
âTay, go drink some coffee please, youâre being a brat right now.â Dad says, patting her head.
âI know surprise. You like a lot.â Geno says, crossing his arms and looking down at me. I raise an eyebrow. Iâve been the victim of one of Dadâs surprises before and letâs just say he doesnât have the best track record when it comes to surprises.Â
âIs it bad that Iâve been your best friend for 12 years and I still canât understand what heâs saying?â Carter asks, leaning over to me. I laugh and Geno looks between the two of us.
âWho you? You Avaâs best friend?â Carter rolls her eyes and nudges Geno, who laughs again and hugs her. âAlright, Little Crosby, letâs get this show on the road.â Kris says, pointing towards the stairs. I smile and rush upstairs to get dressed and grab my bags. I pick out a pair of black leggings and a peach colored Adidas sweatshirt. I change into the clothes and put my pajamas in the dirty clothes. I put on mascara quickly, finishing everything off with some lip gloss. I grab my Birkenstocks and slip them on.Â
âOkay, Iâm ready!â I call as I drag my bag down the stairs behind me. I again attempt not to die on my way down the stairs. But yet again, I fail.
 âOh God, Little Crosby.â Kris says, somehow managing to catch me as I trip down the last 3 steps.Â
âYour daughter is a human wrecking ball. You know that, right Sid?â Dad laughs and nods.
âI havenât killed myself yet. So far, weâre safe.â Everyone laughs and I smile. All these people filling this house are my entire family. Theyâve raised me and I wouldnât be who I am without all of them.Â
âOkay, letâs get going! Our flight leaves in 45 minutes!â Dad calls, attempting to herd us all towards the door. Taylor has finally had her coffee and returned to the world of the living.Â
âToronto here we come!â She calls as we all get out the door and into the two cars weâre taking. Dad locks the door behind us and turns to look at me.
âYou excited, Ava Grace?â I nod and he hugs me to his side.âI hope this lives up to your idea of the perfect 18th birthday.â I laugh and nod again as we head to his car.Â
The drive to the airport and the flight to Toronto are pretty boring but Kris and Taylor keep everyone entertained the whole trip. Carter finally crashed after the Red Bulls she had while we were waiting for our flight to get called in the airport, leaving me to my own thoughts pretty much the entire flight. When we land in Toronto, everyone is pretty excited for the next two weeks.Â
âLittle Crosby surprise time!â Geno calls from the back of our group.
âGeno, weâre still in an airport. Keep it down a little please?â Carter says, patting his arm. Dad scoffs and looks between me and Carter.
âHeâs right though, your surprise is right through those doors.â Dad says, pointing towards the exit of the airport. I see Taylor pull her phone out of her pocket and start recording me. I hand my bag to Kris and look over at Geno who motions me towards the door. I walk towards the doors, which slide open. I glanced around then back at Dad and Taylor who followed me out. Â Â
âLittle Crosby!â I hear a very familiar voice yell over the buzz of the airport.
âOh my God! Uncle Flower!â I shout, rushing towards my uncle Marc and hugging him.
âSurprise!â Dad calls, smiling as I hug Marc.
 âSo you were my surprise?â I say, stepping back and looking at him.
âYep, I was the big wonderful surprise. Hope you werenât too disappointed.â He says, smiling as his arm rests around my shoulders.
âI figured youâd want all of your uncles here for your big 18th birthday. So we worked it out and got him here for you.â I smile, quickly hugging Dad before returning to hug Marc again.Â
âAlright well, itâs time to get heading to the hotel. Weâre going to dinner at 6:30 tonight. Geno, Flower and Kris are taking Tay to something that I know nothing about. And youâre okay with Carter going with us?â I nod as Marc leads us and the rest of our group to the waiting van.Â
âIâm taking a nap when we get to the hotel. You woke me up too early this morning.â I say, nudging Carter as she slides into the van next to me.Â
âSounds like a plan. The Red Bull ran out.â She says, laying her head on my shoulder. The two of us manage to fall asleep on the 20 minute drive to the hotel. Geno shakes us both awake when we get to the hotel. We sleepily wander into the hotel and wait in the lobby while Dad and Tay get everything figured out. The adults herd us all over to the elevator and into it, somehow managing to get us all to the conjoined rooms we have for the next two weeks. As soon as we make it into the rooms, Carter and I collapse onto the bed weâll be sharing and fall asleep.Â
About 2 and a half hours later, Dad comes in and wakes us up.
âGirls, we have about an hour before we have to leave for dinner. Go ahead and start getting ready.â He calls as he closes the door behind him. I sit up and stretch, the excitement building in my chest all over again.
âOkay, I think Iâm gonna curl my hair and wear that frilly, layered red skirt with the white sweater and my little brown boots. What about you, Carter?â I ask, looking back at her who is still laying in bed.Â
âSo I have to dress nice right? I think the army green pants romper thing with my jean jacket, Vans and straight hair. Sound good?â She asks, finally sitting up. I nod and get started curling my hair. She gets started on doing her makeup while I work on my hair. Somehow, we both end up being done with plenty of time left to spare. So we do what typical teenagers do and spend the extra 15 minutes we have, on our phones. Dad comes in and the two of us follow him down to the elevator and out to the car. Itâs some super nice, fancy car; just like the one that lives in our garage except on home game days. Dad lets Carter play music which automatically, I can tell, he regrets as Cotton Eye Joe plays for the third time. Carter is having the time of her life and I canât help but laugh along with her. When we get to the restaurant, itâs one Dad and I came to, back when we came to Toronto for some charity event a few years ago.
âAlright, how excited are you?â Dad asks, as he parks the car and we climb out. I squeal a little and Carter laughs. Dad smiles, draping his arm around my shoulders as I link arms with Carter. The 3 of us waltz into the restaurant and walk up to the hostess.
âHello, Mr. Crosby. Your two guests are already seated.â I squeeze Carterâs arm and we squeal a little together. As we follow the hostess to our table, back in the back, we pass a table with two teenage boys. One looks Carter up and down, obviously checking her out, while the other locks eyes with me. I smile, forcing myself to look away as we disappear into the back, private room Dad reserved for us.Â
âHoly crap, did you see those guys?â Carter whisper-yells into my ear. I nod, trying to focus on the fact that Mitch Marner is standing a few feet away from me, a grin on his face, instead of the guy I just saw.
âHey Sid. This must be Ava and Carter. Nice to meet you girls.â Mitch says, reaching his hand out. I shake it, the smile on my face impossibly large. Morgan Rielly stands next to him and shakes our hands as well. As we all sit down, I happen to glance around the room and see that both of the boys are looking into the room. As much as I want to pay attention to what Mitch, Mo and Dad are talking about, I canât. Iâm too distracted by the boy I saw. Carter, apparently canât either.Â
âAva, they were literally so hot. Can I please go get their numbers?â She asks, nudging me when she catches me staring again.
 âNo! Dad will kill me if he catches me talking to a boy!â I whisper-yell, glancing up at Dad and Mitch.Â
âAva Grace, that could be your freaking soulmate and youâll never know because you wonât let me go get their numbers!â I roll my eyes and glance over my shoulder at the boysâ table. Sadly, theyâre gone and I sigh, looking over at Carter.
âTheyâre gone anyway. Not like weâre ever gonna see them again anyways.â I say, glumly, resting my chin on my hand. She shakes her head. âThere went your soulmate.â I sigh, knowing she wonât let me live this down. Dad clears his throat, pulling Carter and I back to the conversation happening at the table.
âSo Ava, I hear youâre a pretty big fan of mine.â Mitch says, leaning on his elbows against the table. I smile, taking in all of his features.
âYeah, youâve been my favorite since you came into the league. Dadâs always a little disappointed when I donât tell people heâs my favorite player.â Mitch and Mo laugh. The rest of the evening, conversation flows easily and Carter and I both have a blast. As I glance at my Apple watch and see the time, Carter nudges me again.Â
âYour dad is looking at you funny.â She says, nodding her head towards Dad. I look up, my eyes meeting my dadâs gaze.
âItâs getting late, are you girls ready to head back to the hotel? Your aunt and uncles should be getting back soon too.â Carter and I nod and I turn to look at Mitch.
âIâll be wearing your jersey on Saturday night. Donât disappoint me. Also itâs my birthday so a goal or two would be nice.â Mitch and Mo laugh as Dad smiles down at me.Â
âI will try my hardest. Glad we could spend the evening with you lovely ladies. See you on Saturday after the game? Thereâll be passes for your whole group at the ticket desk.â My face lights up and I know Carterâs does too.âOkay great! See you then! Good luck!â I say, standing and hugging Mitch. Mo shakes Dadâs hand and then the two of them head out.Â
âYou two seemed very distracted all during dinner. Was everything okay?â Dad asks as the 3 of us head back out to the car after he pays.âYeah everything was fine. Dinner was super good and fun. Carter just saw some cute boy and wouldnât shut up about him.â Dad laughs and rolls his eyes.
âHey, in my defense, your daughter was looking too so it wasnât just me.â Carter says, crossing her arms. Dadâs head whips around as we climb in the car.
âA boy? What?â I groan internally and elbow Carter. Iâve never been that into boys. I mean, Iâve thought plenty of boys were cute and had quite a few guy friends but Iâve never had the time or the effort that comes with having a relationship. So itâs never been a topic of conversation for Dad and I.Â
âNothing, it was nothing. Donât worry about it, Dad.â I say, trying to avoid the topic.Â
âItâs interesting though. I was just talking to your uncle Kris about how youâve never had a boyfriend or anything like that. Which is fine with me because I know what boys are like.â Dad says as we drive back to the hotel. Carter is dying sitting next to me, her hand pressed against her mouth to avoid laughing out loud.
âI-I know...Iâve just never had the time or wanted one.â I say, burying my head in my hands.Â
âWell you donât need one. You have all the guys you need in your life. Me, your Uncle Geno, Uncle Kris, Uncle Marc, and Grandpa.â Carter finally bursts out laughing and Dad looks in the rearview mirror at me.Â
âIâm serious, Ava Grace. Why do you need a boyfriend?â Dad has never really been the overprotective dad. Heâs protective for sure but he kind of lets me do my own thing most of the time. He knows if I need to, Iâll come to him or one of the other main adults in my life. But he lets me make my own decisions and figure life out by myself. This whole âno boyfriendâ thing that heâs doing right now is new.Â
âI guess I donât. Youâre right.â I say, putting an end to the conversation by turning and looking out the window. Thankfully, Dad doesnât push any farther. The 3 of us ride in silence, the radio off, the rest of the way back to the hotel. Once we get into the hotel and up to our rooms, I tell Dad goodnight, give him a hug and a kiss then follow Carter into our room. Carter distracts me from the disaster of a conversation that was with Dad and forces me to watch some cheesy rom-com with her. I fall asleep midway through and sleep in late the next day. Taylor takes Carter and I out shopping all day on Friday while my dad and the uncles do who knows what. The topic of boys is avoided all day, All night at dinner on Friday, we catch up with everyone. I fill Marc in on what Dadâs latest old person moment was, even though heâs only 33. Everything seems so perfect and happy but I keep replaying the conversation with Dad over and over again in my head.Â
Saturday morning, my birthday morning, Carter wakes me up with cake in bed. Itâs a tradition we started when we were 12. Every year on our birthday, the other girl brings the birthday girl cake in bed. Itâs one of my favorite birthday traditions.Â
âHappy birthday Little Crosby! You are adult now!â Geno calls, leading the rest of my family into my room. Dad brings up the end of the line and walks over to the bed. He hugs me, pressing a kiss to my forehead.âHappy birthday my sweet girl.â He says, smoothing my hair down and getting all teary-eyed.Â
âI canât believe the young lady youâve grown into. You are beautiful, strong, independent and so responsible. I...I didnât think things would end up this way, especially with your mom not being in the picture. But I look around you and I see all these people who helped raise you and I know, youâve turned out more than okay. I love you Ava Grace and will always love you. Happy birthday.â Dad says. I take another bite of the cake Carter brought me and smile up at him.
âI love you so much, Daddy. Thank you for everything. Thank you everyone for everything youâve done for me. I love all of you.â They all share a sappy smile and I keep eating my cake. The rest of the day, we hang out at the hotel, lounging around before the game tonight at 7. Marc and Geno see how many pieces of pizza they can eat while Dad keeps score. Taylor paints Carterâs nails and I pick at mine. Kris sneaks out to buy me ice cream and comes back with at least 10 different kinds, all of them my favorite in one way or another.Â
Carter and I start getting ready around 4:30 so weâre ready to leave by 5. I straighten my hair and do just light makeup. I dig my Mitch Marner jersey out of my bag and put it on with some black leggings. Carter wears the jersey of the only Leaf she likes, Frederik Andersen. She opted for black ripped jeans instead of leggings. Everyone else is just dressed casual. Marc did wear a Leafs hat just to please me. The drive to the arena, Carter gets to play music again. She plays our âHockey Game Hype Upâ playlist, something we made a few years ago. Even though Iâm the music person, sheâs much better at putting playlists together. Iâm only really good at finding one or two songs I love and just playing them over and over again. As the songs âAuston Matthewsâ by Svdvm and âToronto Maple Leafs Anthemâ by JDME play back to back, we pull into the arena parking lot. No matter how many times Iâve been to Scotiabank Arena, it never ceases to amaze me. I think Iâve been here a grand total of like 15 times in the last 10 years, solidifying it as my favorite arena.Â
âCome on Ava, letâs go watch your boy play.â Carter says, linking her arm through mine. She leads me and the rest of our group into the arena. Everyone else heads to the box but I decide to stay down in the main area and wander around a bit, making sure I get the full experience again. All around me, Leafs fans are hurrying to one place or another. I take everything, wanting to remember this for the rest of my life. As Iâm walking down a small set of stairs, I collide with a pretty solid body. And of course, with my human wrecking ball abilities, I manage to take both of us down, all the way to the ground. âShit! Iâm so sorry, are you okay?â I ask, sitting up and looking at the boy I collided with. He sits up, looks at me, down at the ground, then back up at me. His eyes are huge.
âI-Oh my God. Yeah-Yeah Iâm okay! Are you?â He asks, jumping to his feet and reaching his hand out to help me up. I take his hand and he pulls me to my feet. âYeah Iâm all good. Sorry for taking you out. Iâm known for being clumsy. Like the jersey by the way.â I say, pointing to where the number 16 is stitched into the arm of his jersey. The same number sprawled across my back.
âHey, I like yours too. Marner your favorite player?â I nod, pushing my hair back out of my face.
âYeah, I grew up a Penguins fan because of my dad but the Leafs are my favorite team.â He smiles and nods. He looks so familiar but I canât place where I know him from. Talking to him comes so naturally and it seems like the world just goes on around us while we stand there and talk. Before I know it, theyâre starting the lineup announcements.
âOh shoot, I gotta get going. Enjoy the game!â I call over my shoulder as I run back towards the box weâre all sitting in. Of course, I trip up the steps and almost fall. As I glance over my shoulder, I see the boy with a smirk on his face. I blush and mentally kick myself for first off accidentally tackling a cute boy then tripping and almost falling in front of him. As I rush back into the box, Dad eyes me with a raised eyebrow. I huff and flop into my seat next to Marc and Carter. Carter glances at me out of the corner of her eye and smirks.
âWhy are you all red and bothered about?â I bite my lip and Marc looks over at me.âI accidentally tackled a cute boyâŠâ I say, burying my head in my hands. Carter and Marc laugh and Marc pats my back.
âThere there, Little Crosby. I did much worse to your aunt VĂ©ronique.â I laugh and lean my head on his shoulder. Geno and Kris are behind us, teasing Taylor as Dad watches whatâs going on down on the ice. His hand is resting on my shoulder, absentmindedly squeezing and releasing in a protective way. As I sit there, watching the game, all I can think about is the boy. But as I do, I think about the conversation Dad and I had last night in the car. Did he really mean what he said? Would he really get upset if I did ever decide to have a boyfriend?

CSAU :: Moonie Jericho and the Mysterious Case of the Moon-Jumper Mask - Alternate Ending
Or: âThe extremely self indulgent 7 page fic were Nell gets to be more helpful and has some actual characterizationâÂ
Yeahhhh this isnât canon to the fic, but I wanted to write it because I can, at LAST give yaâll Nellâs backstory for how they came to live in Subcon in the CSAU
Per usual, the âCoffee Shop AUâ belongs to the ever wonderful @doodledrawsthings
Also, note: Both MJ and Nell use âthey/themâ pronouns, with MJ being âHe/Theyâ and Nell being âShe/Theyâ To keep things from getting too confusing, Nell will be âTheyâ and MJ will be âHeâÂ
Enjoy!Â
--
Nell was honestly a bit surprised when MJ came to their home the morning after Halloween, sheepishly stating that the mask seemed ... stuck.
âReally?â
He nodded.
âHuh.. Come on in then. Iâll get some tea going and see about helping you out, hm?â
He walked into their house, taking a moment to actually look about the place- as he didnât get much of a chance before- and took a seat in their small living room.
The ambiance of the outside followed inside, with the walls painted chestnut brown with warm yet bright pops of color on the windowsill and the various picture frames full of people he didnât know. The curtain over the wide window was patterned with little pumpkins, which he found cute, and hanging from a few ceiling hooks were what Clover would call âLow-maintenanceâ plants. The dark colors match well with the room, making it feel a bit comfier than it otherwise might.
The couch he sat on was across from an armchair, and both were colored a warm orange, with an espresso-colored coffee table. On said table were some envelopes and a copy of âBetter Homes and Gardensâ
Huh, he didnât peg them as a reader of those types of magazines. Then again, Clover was the one that knew Nell, not him.
They came back with two mugs - one was purple with the âSnatcherâ face on it, and the other had a little grumpy ghost on it, with âIâm spooky before my coffeeâ written above the drawing.
They handed him the Snatcher mug
âCan I ask where you get all of this Snatcher merch?â
âMy best friend is an Etsy fiend. Despite him living all the way in Nyakoto, he ships me Snatcher merch whenever he finds something fun. Heâs a real characterâ they chuckled.
âHuhâ MJ acknowledged as Nell walked around the coffee table and sat next to him
âDo you feel the mask?â
He nodded, his hand up at the edge, right where he felt it âWhen I pull, it just⊠doesnât moveâ
âHm..â they sipped. âWhen you try to take it off, how does it feel?â
âLike⊠itâs like a thousand little⊠things? Pulling at my face, I think?â MJ pulled up their mug and sipped the tea.
âLike⊠string? Thread?â
MJ nodded. âI think that's the right word, threadâ
Nell puts down the mug as MJ takes another sip. âLet me seeâ they scooted closer to him, and he put his mug down and turned his head.
Their hands seemed to glow green as they raised it âThere we goâŠâ They muttered, hand immediately finding the maskâs edge, and seeing what he was talking about â... Huh, the threads⊠well, that's the right word. Theyâre⊠criss-crossedâŠâ
Before he could ask if they could remove them, he felt a slight burning at the edge of his face and jumped
âAh!â
âSorry, sorry, but, that did work⊠Though, it means you might be here a whileâ they admit âIâll need you to stay still, okay?â
âOh.. okayâ
It was... Not Okay.
A few minutes into Nellâs attempt at getting the mask off, they let out a huff.
âYou canât keep squirmingâ
âI- Iâm sorryâ He muttered âIt's just, you know, hard to stay stillâ
âI understand that, but I donât want to mess this up. Iâd like to see your actual eyesâ They muttered.
âI know, it just.. Weird feelingâ He tried to explain.
âMoonâ They pressed, but sighed â... You seem still enough when Iâm talking to you, need a distraction?â
âI mean, I guessâŠ?â
Nell sighed âHm⊠How about I tell you how I came to live in Subcon? Thatâs a long-ass storyâ
âOh uh, if youâre okay with sharing!â MJ tried to be polite. He knew that even Clover wasnât completely sure why Nell came to live in the town, she just knew that âsomething happenedâ back at the coast where they were from.
âNah. Itâs been 5 years. Thatâs more than long enoughâ The nurse stayed focused on the magic threads, their magic seeming to thrum in his ears- sounding almost like the hum of a fan in the dead heat of summer..
There was a pause, before they took in a breath.
âWhen I was 19, I took a job in Nyakoto, and left my hometown as fast as the train could take me. I had a scholarship to a little nursing school there, and before my 21st birthday, Iâd gotten a nice, decent paying job as an ER nurse for a hospital in the East Sideâ They started âThe hospitals were all interconnected, so I ended up meeting different doctors and nurses while I worked, and sometimes was called to assist in other hospitals.
âI was.. 25, when I met himâ They recalled, something in their voice seeming heavy. âWeâll call him Chris
âHe was in residency at a hospital down in the Wesservale neighborhood. We met at a medical appreciation gala⊠He had something about him I couldn't place. . . A charisma, almost. A kindness. He seemed so eager for the future, so excited for what the next day might bring him. Iâd never been like that. His optimism drew me in.
âWe started dating the year after. Like with most relationships, everything seemed great. He was funny, kind, thoughtful, all of that stuff. He even went with me to pride stuff, which was pretty cool at the time.â
âPride?â MJ chimed in. Nell couldnât hide a chuckle.
âYes. Youâve heard of the Nyakoto Annual Pride Bonanza, havenât you? One of the biggest in the countryâ
âI have, yesâ
âGood. Back to the storyâ Nell redirected âWhen I was 27, about a year and a half into the relationship, I realized, quite unhappily, that we werenât actually very different, and didnât really get along as well as we thought.. It's not that we argued, but.. We didnât really⊠talk. I never spoke to him about my problems, I didnât feel like I could, and that really made me realize that we werenât actually all that comfortable around each other. So, when he came over to my place that night for dinner, I spoke to him, and tried to tell him that we werenât compatible, and that I thought perhaps weâd be better off as friends.
âHe convinced me that we just needed work, going on and on about all these plans he had for us. Trips, dates, things to look forward to, always looking toward the future, Chris didâ
Nell paused again
â.. I really should have noticed how little he cared about happiness in the present.â They commented âNot a traditional red flag, but it was a warning nonethelessâ
âWell, I mean, thatâs not so badâ
âIn a way, noâ Nell replied âBut when you think about the future so much, you forget the present, you forget to live, and your past just.. Ends up a horrible haze. Even the happy stuff is hard to recallâ
MJ hadnât thought of it like that
âBut hindsight is 2020, and in the moment, I believed him. I wanted to believe those bright dreams of the future, and I let go of the fact that I did not even like to talk to him very much.
â... I tried to break up with him 4 more times in the 8 years we were together.â
Okay, MJ hadnât been expecting that much time passing.
âBy the time I was 34, we were living together, but barely seeing each other. From the outside it must have seemed perfect to everyone else. I think only Daph knew about my.. Issues, with Chris. I still never talked to him about anything that wasnât the future, or how the day was, or.. Just, absolute nonsense.
âOne night, after one more attempt to break up, Iâd gone to bed defeated, and woke up at 3 in the morning while he was on the night shift in Wesservale.. I came to this⊠realization
âIf I didnât leave right then and there, Iâd marry himâŠ. and Iâd âŠ. Iâd be stuck. Heâd have me, and Iâd be stuck for the rest of my life..
âSo I grabbed everything I had in the apartment, sent a resignation email to the East side hospital I still worked at, left him a note telling him I was leaving, took my car and just⊠started drivingâ
â.. Did he call you?â
âI blocked his number.â They answered curtly. âDrove for days until I came across Subcon.â
MJ didnât comment.
âI stayed at the Alpine Motel for a few nights, and when I was at the diner, overheard that there was an open position for the school nurse at the elementaryâ They continued. âI applied for it, and 3 months later cashed in my savings to put a down payment on this little placeâ They made a motion with their hand briefly âThe rest is historyâ
âWell⊠If it's any consolation, I think that's a good reason to get out of the cityâ
Nell couldnât hold back a laugh. There was something a little⊠sad, in it, but the laugh was genuine.
âYeah, then again, every reason is a good one to get out of the cityâ They commented, and MJ had only just realized that their hands were now on the other side of his face. Nell worked quickly, it seemed. âHm.. okay. On the count of three, I'm going to try to take it off, alright?â
âOh, uh, wow, okay!â He replied eagerly, closing his eyes.
âOneâŠâ They slowly started, both hands on either side, their nails right at the edge of the mask.
âThree!â
MJ startled as Nell pulled, and a cold, sharp feeling spread over his body before it abruptly ended. When he opened his eyes. He looked at Nell, who had, in their hands, that damned mask.
His hands went up to his face, and he let out a relieved laugh as he felt his skin, glasses and hair âhah! Hahah! Iâm human again! No more magic!â He raised his hands and leaned back on the couch âSweet reliefâ
Nell let out a chuckle, putting the mask down gently âFinish your tea, Iâm gonna grab you a damp towel. You have⊠paint? On your faceâ
His brow was furrowed, but he reached for the still-warm mug anyway as Nell got up and went down a short hallway.
He took the few moments that Nell was done to think over the story heâd been told, the exhaustion in the nurseâs voice as she told it. Was he really the first one to learn? It gave him a weird feeling right in his chest.
When Nell returned, she offered a small, damp towel⊠that had the âSnatcherâ smile on it
â... How many of these do you have?â He almost laughed again, and they just answered with an amused smile and grabbed their own coffee cup.
MJ cleaned his face, seeing a candy-red color coming off on the purple towel. âHm..â
âWhat?â
âWell uh, the color looks like the magic strings I was able to summonâ
Nell Blinked â... Well uh, bring that up with Tim when heâs back in town. Thatâs a little out of my wheelhouseâ
âNotedâ
The two fell into silence, sipping their warm drinks and giving them some time to unwind
âWill you need a ride home?â they asked him, putting their mug down.
He hadnât actually thought of that.
âOh, uh, itâs fineâ
They raised an eyebrow at him
âYou live 20 minutes away and Luka isnât here to ⊠fly you home, per seâ They laid out âIâve got a car, Iâll drive you homeâ
He turned a little red to the ears âOh.. Thank youâ
âNo problem, Moonâ They smiled back at him. âIâm going to change real quick, then weâll leaveâ
And with that, they left back into the short hallway, to what Moon assumed was their bedroom.
Nell returned a few minutes later, dressed in a loose blouse and skirt that went down to their ankles, a far cry from the tank top and sweatpants that heâd seen them in before. He supposed that it was more so not wanting to go out in Pajamas than anything else. She picked up the mask, wrapping it in a handkerchief before holding it out to him
âItâs chosen you. You have to keep itâ
He just nodded, and gingerly took the troublesome thing into his hands.
The two got in their truck (Nell owned a truck??) and drove into town.
MJ took in a breath as they turned onto a main street, passing The Horizon. âSo uh, Nell..â
âHm?â
âAbout your uh, the story you told me.. I wonât tell anyoneâ
âI donât mind if you doâ they answered, eyes on the road
âWhat, really?â
âLike I said before. Five years feels long enoughâ
MJâs brow furrowed âIâm still not going to say anything.. Thatâs a personal story. Itâs not mine to tellâ
Nell glanced over at him with an unreadable expression, before moving to turn on the radio. Lo-fi started, and it seemed they were right in the middle of a Billie Eilish song.
â.. Thank youâ They ended up responding as the song picked up
âI know supposedly I'm lonely now.
Know Iâm supposed to be unhappy without someone.
But arenât I someone?âÂ
MJ didnât say much of anything else once until they got to his apartment building
âThank you, Nell. For everythingâ
âDonât mention itâ They gave him a small, but sincere smile âGet some rest, hm? The bags under your eyes are aging youâ
MJ just laughed âI will. Donât be a stranger, Mx. Buonacciâ
The nurse gave him a lazy salute with a soft smile, before the window rolled up, and they drove off
Exhaling, he looked down at the covered mask, wrapped in aâŠ. Snatcher-patterned handkerchief.
He couldnât help but laugh.

Pins and Needles pairing: George Weasley x American !Gryffindor Reader Summary: Who knew that the shy new kid had a way with sewing? To George, thatâs pretty cool. TW: fluffy đđ 2.4K Words
  You looked around your dorm and began to unpack. You came in a week after term started and you needed to unpack your things. Luckily, it was Saturday and lessons wouldnât be a problem. Everyone was buzzing about the weekly trip to Hogsmeade in the halls, and it peeked your interest. Sure you didnât have anyone to go with, but this could be a good way to make some friends.Â
 You had just arrived in England from America, and had just started Hogwarts. Everyone was a stranger here, and you were on the lookout for some new people to hang out with.Â
 You pulled a hoodie over your T-shirt and tightened the laces on your boots before locking your dorm and running downstairs into the courtyard where everybody was waiting for the sendoff. You showed McGonagall your signed permission slip and joined the group.Â
 The walk was rather pleasant. You took in the scenery, all the trees with red yellow and brown leaves falling in the breeze and the sound of branches rusting against each other filled the air as you and the rest of year 5 of Hogwarts walked to Hogsmeade.Â
 Hogsmeade was a cute little town, with shops and cafeâs and cobblestone streets. You walked along the cobble and followed the rest of the kids as you didnât know the area very well. You saw a majority of people go into a place called Honeydukes.Â
 From the moment you stepped inside you could tell why that place was so popular. The shelves were loaded with sweets and tricks, excited people grabbing stuff like crazy. You walked along the shelves, half of the treats you havenât even heard of. Bertie bots and chocolate frogs and pumpkin pasties... I guess a chocolate frog sounded good. You had a few coins in your pocket, why not?Â
 You picked one off the shelf and began to walk as you read the labelling. You were so distracted that you didnât even realize the person standing in front of you...
  âOof!â You fell over on your knees, the small candy falling out of your hand. âOh shoot, I am so sorry-âÂ
  âNah, Itâs alright. Need help?âÂ
 You grabbed the strangers hand and hoisted yourself up. You were met with a pair of hazel eyes and flaming red hair. This mystery guy had a spattering of freckles across his cheeks and nose. He gave you a small smile and handed you back your frog. âThink you dropped this.âÂ
  âOh, thanks.â You took back the frog and stuffed it into your pocket. âHey, I donât think Iâve seen you before. Iâm George, you?â
  âOh, Iâm Y/N, Iâm new here.âÂ
 Georgeâs eyes widened at your accent. He grinned and fiddled with the end of his sleeve. âWould you want to come with me and my brother to the Three Broomsticks? Itâs got the most amazing butterbeer in England.âÂ
 You smiled at the offer. âSure, why not?âÂ
 You payed the five nuts for the frog. (You ended up getting Dumbledore) And followed George to the place he was talking about. He was ever so funny, cracking you up in no time with jokes. He told you all about Hogwarts and how you would love it there.Â
 âSo, which house are you in?âÂ
 âOh, Iâm in Gryffindor. âÂ
 George looked at you and beamed. âThatâs my house as well!âÂ
 You two laughed at the coincidence, finally drawing up to the Three broomsticks and going inside. You were met with the strong smell of cinnamon and coffee, and the warm air hit your skin as you went further inside. George led you to a table were a few others were sitting. Another boy who looked identical to George who turned out to be his twin Fred, another boy with red hair who was his brother Ron, a girl named Hermione and a smaller boy named Harry.Â
 âGuys, this is Y/N, their new here. Their from America, AND their in Gryffindor.âÂ
 Everyone said hello, they all seemed so friendly. You sat in between George and Hermione, who asked you tons of questions about America, which you expected might happen at your new school.Â
 You all ordered Butterbeer, and Fred and George laughed as you chugged the entire mug after the first sip. George elbowed you and smirked. âTold you itâs good.â You rolled you eyes and giggled.Â
 From that day on, the five of you became inseparable. You always hung out, and before you knew it it was already nearing summer break.Â
 âAh, summer!â You sighed as you slumped against a tree in the field you guys were hanging out in, stretching your legs out as you looked up though the green leaves. âIâm gonna miss you guys. Welp, at least Iâll see you guys next year.âÂ
 Hermione elbowed Ron, who cleared his throat. âspeaking of which, Y/N would you liked to come to the burrow this summer? Everyone does, even if itâs only for a week. Mum takes us to Diagon alley before school so we can get our stuff. Itâs always fun, you should come.âÂ
 You thought about it, and it did sound like fun. âsure, iâll ask my parents, Iâm sure theyâd like me out of their hair for a bit.âÂ
 George and Fred whooped and you smiled. This should be fun.Â
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 You clutched the backpack on your shoulder and gulped. You had been so excited but now you were so nervous. What if they got sick of you? What if you became a burden?âÂ
 You took a deep breath and stepped into the fireplace after hugging your parents goodbye. You erupted into green flames and in moment you found yourself in a slightly smaller fireplace. You stepped out and immediately recognized the voices of your friends. âOi Fred! Y/Nâs here!âÂ
 George called up the stairs to his brother before rushing over to you and wrapping his arms around you. You giggled as he lifted you slightly. âDonât suffocate me Georgie.â You joked. George put you down and grinned. âMissed you.âÂ
 You noticed a faint shade of red start to spread across his face. You didnât get to think much of it though because of all the people that entered the living room moments later. You hugged Fred, Harry, Ron and Hermione before shaking hands with Mr. Weasley and received an even tighter hug from Mrs. Weasley. You met Percy and Ginny, who both seemed really nice. Percy a bit uptight, but you thought nothing of it.Â
 âYouâll be sharing with Hermione and Ginny, just upstairs dear.â Mrs. Weasley said, before rushing to the kitchen.   âOk, Thanks Mrs. Weasley!â
  âJust call me Molly dear!âÂ
 You smiled and turned to George. âYour mumâs really nice.âÂ
 George grinned. âNeed help with your bag?âÂ
  âNah, Iâm good.âÂ
 You followed Hermione and Ginny to Ginnyâs room. It was small, but cozy. You put your bag down on your place on the floor.Â
  âNice room Gin! I really like it.âÂ
  âThanks Y/NâÂ
 The three of you talked until Molly called you down to dinner. You made it official in your head that Molly Weasley had the absolute best cooking ever. The food practically melted in tour mouth, and you stared in awe as the dishes got cleaned by magic, washing themselves. The burrow is honestly the most magical place you have ever seen aside from Hogwarts.Â
 The summer was amazing, You, George, Fred, Ron, Harry, Hermione and Ginny all going on walks and playing card games and having mini games of quidditch. Soon, it was already time to go to Diagon Alley.Â
 âHurry up Y/N, weâre just about leaving!â Hermione said as you grabbed the big cloth bag out of your backpack. You and her hurried downstairs were everyone else was gathered. One by one, everyone erupted into green flames and arrived into the large are known as diagon alley. Shops lined the streets and there were people and children running everywhere. âNow children, we meet here in exactly an hour ok?â Molly said, and everyone nodded. George grabbed hold of your arm and tugged you with him. âSeeing as this is your first time here, i volunteer to be your guide.â You giggled and went with him.Â
 You two walked and chatted, going in and out of stores. George goggled at how cute you looked when your face lit up at the box of kittens in one of the animal shops. You tugged George inside. Owls were on perches, rats in brass cages running on top of landings and down again, and the faint mewing of cats in the distance.Â
 âOh George they are so cute, donât you think so!?â You cooed as you picked up a calico kitten who purred as you stroked it. âYour cute.â George mumbled. âYou snapped your head around, and he turned a dangerously visible shade of red. You smirked. âYour not so bad yourself Weasley.âÂ
 You beamed as be blushed harder. You put down the cat and took his hand, leading him out of the store. You two were about to go back to the meeting place when one store caught your eye. âGeorge, I need to go in there. Iâll be right out I promise.âÂ
  âSlow down darling Iâll come with you.âÂ
 You entered the store and you gawked in awe at the amount of fabric, thread, and buttons inside. You were practically in heaven.Â
 You ran your hand down the different fabrics, checking the prices. âI didnât know you were into sewing.â George said, examining a cotton sheet. âLike sewing? Georgie my dear, sewing is my LIFEâ. You tugged at the shirt you were wearing, made out of black cotton. âI made this last winter.âÂ
 Georgeâs eyes widened. âYOU made that? Itâs so good!â
 You blushed at his appreciation. You picked a few pieces of fabric and paid, putting them in the bag and you and George exited the shop, meeting with everyone else. âMum! Y/Nâs into that sewing thing as well you know?âÂ
  âOh thatâs interesting! What sort of stuff do you make?âÂ
 You looked at your shirt and the bag in your bag. âI make most of my own clothes, like this shirt Iâm wearing.âÂ
 Molly looked amazed and you two gambled off about sewing and knitting and whatnot. George and Fred just laughed, George thought of it as cute though. He already had this itching crush for you from the moment he met you and the fact that you got on so well with his mum just made his heart flutter.Â
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 It was the beginning of term, and you were now sharing a room with Hermione. Your desk was littered with scrap pieces of fabric, and scattered needles. Hermioneâs was depressingly neat.Â
 You were wearing a pin cushion on your arm, trying to fix the hem of your robe because it ripped when somebody knocked on the door. âCome in!â Â
 George entered the room, his hair messed up. He mustâve just got out of quidditch you assumed. When Hermione saw who was at the door, she shut the book she was reading and stood up from her bed. âIâm going to go see what Harry and Ron are doing.âÂ
 Once she left, you two were alone. âCome in, whatâs up?â You gestured towards the space next to you on your bed. George came over, propping himself up with his arm before pulling his hand away, yelping. âWhat? Whatâs wrong?â
 Your eyes filled with worry as George examined his hand. He picked up a small pin from the cover and handed it to you. âThink this belongs to you.âÂ
  âOh dear sorry, Iâm working on my robe you see, it ripped and i was fixing it.â You put the pin back in the pin cushion and took Georgeâs hand into your own, gently massaging the area of impact.Â
 George turned a bright shade of pink as your delicate fingers ran over his palm. âItâs alright Y/N.âÂ
  âSo, how was quidditch?â You asked, resuming your work. George cleared his throat, looking shyer then usual. âUh, practice was good. Speaking of which, I, uh, managed to rip my jersey on the goal post. I was wondering if you could fix it for me?âÂ
  âUh-huh, sure just hand it to me.âÂ
 You were so engrossed in your work you didnât even realize that George was shirtless in front of you. You looked up when he handed you his ripped jersey. You examined the area where the rip was. âOh sweetie this can be fixed in two stitches, you-âÂ
 Your eyes gawked at him. When did this boy get to be so fine? You felt yourself go red, before you decided to turn it into a joke so he wouldnât notice you being embarrassed. âDid you find a small hole just you could see me? Hmmm?â You smirked, thinking you could tease him, until he said his reply:
  âYes thatâs exactly what I did.âÂ
 You paused, needle halfway though the fabric. You looked up at him, he tried to cover himself up with his arms, his face bright red. âWell, I enjoy your company.âÂ
  âThank you.â
  âAlso when did you get to be so dang hot?âÂ
 You smirked as you saw him get even redder. âT-thanks.âÂ
  âYour welcome... there you are, all fixed.â You handed him the jersey, the hole all patched up. George slid it on, you watched the shirt over his abs. âLook in the right sleeve.âÂ
 George turned his right sleeve inside out, only to see a tiny embroidered heart in light pink stitches. âAw, thatâs so cute!â George gushed. You felt pleased.Â
 âWell, I better get going.â George said, standing up. âAwe man, leaving me already?â You pulled a pouty-face, and you saw the nervousness in his eyes. âOf course Iâll stay.â
 You two talked for what seemed like hours, that is until the dinner bell rang. You helped George up, but not before he pressed a small kiss to your cheek. He left without a word after that. You stood there speechless, tracing the area where his lips had been seconds before.Â
 You turned to your bed and screamed into a pillow. Oh merlin he kissed you!Â
 The next day you caught him in the hall. Without saying a word, you managed to drag him into a quiet hallway, were nobody else was wandering.Â
 You pressed him to a wall and kissed him. You were craving the taste of his lips for a while, and now you finally got his. George melted into you, he hitched you up by your legs, you wrapped them around his waist and you tangled your hands into his hair. You two had waited long enough for this, and this was complete and utter euphoria.Â
 Once he pulled away, he smirked. âWhat is is?â You asked.Â
 âOh, letâs just say that Iâve been on pins and needles waiting for this.â Â

moonlight (xu minghao)
Genre: Fluff, one scene with angst, college!au, graduation!au, established relationship, moving in together
Summary: Your relationship with Minghao, told through phone calls
Word count: 2k
Warnings: One cuss word I think
a/n: This is lowkey the foil to sunny but the plots are completely unrelated. Happy Minghao day yâall
D-17.
You wake up to a phone call from Minghao.
âGood morning!â he chirps. You respond with a noncommittal grunt. âAw, baby. Rise and shine!â
âFive more minutes,â you yawn, turning over in your bed.
âCâmon, chop-chop. Get your exams over with! Get that bread, get that head, then leave.â
You still want to go back to sleep, but Minghaoâs ridiculousness makes you open your eyes. âYou want me to get that head? When youâre a hundred miles away?â Static. âThatâs what I thought,â you grin, closing your eyes as another yawn escapes your mouth.
âHey hey hey, donât fall asleep on me again. You got this. Turn your camera on!â
âWhy?â
âSo I can see your beautiful face,â he sing-songs. A grin spreads across your face almost involuntarilyâafter three years of dating Minghao, simple statements like these never fail to make you happy. Itâs because of how genuine he is, you think. He means it from the bottom of his heart. âPlus, youâll have a harder time falling asleep again.â
âIf you insist.â You sit up, turn your camera on, and prop your phone up on your blankets. Minghao pops up on screen a few moments later. âHey.â
The call freezes for a second, displaying a pixelated jumble of his smiling face, before it resumes to show him blowing a kiss at you. âHey.â
You blow one back, feeling the sleepiness leave your body. âMm. Last day of exams. Canât wait to get this shit over with.â
âThatâs the spirit!â His grin is contagious, and you canât help but break into a smile yourself.
âThank you for cheering me up, Minghao. You just helped me start my day right.â Minghaoâs the more laid-back person in your relationship, but he has no problem being your personal hypeman. Heâs good at it, tooâhe never fails to brighten your day.
âThank you for overcoming your sleepiness for me, baby.â
âMhm, just for you. I think Iâm gonna take a quick shower before I finish my exams.â
âCan I join?â
âMinghao!â You burst out laughing. Minghao grins.
âHey, at least youâre fully awake now, right?â
âOh my god, you dork. Anyways, what are you doing today?â
He explains some of his new designs and marvels at the amount of creative freedom his upcoming project has. Before you know it, itâs 8:28 and Minghao has to leave to catch the metro. You say your goodbyes like normal.
âI love you, Minghao.â
âI love you, y/n.â
You pause before you hit the âend callâ button. âIâll see you soon.â
D-13.
Sometimes, you wonder if suffering through two years of graduate school was worth it.
Then, you remember the job offer you landed a few months ago, and the long hours seem like a small price to pay. Getting a job in New York City is no small task, and your learning through your graduate program certainly helped.
Plus, listening to Minghao get excited about how youâre finally moving in makes the process sound more than worth it, no matter how long it took.
ââso I asked my boss for the afternoon off to pick you up, and she said yes! And I was super happy, and she was super happy that I was happy, you know? She also suggested getting flowersâdo you want flowers? I told her you donât like flowers because theyâre impractical, but I can get you a bouquet if you want, if youâve changed your mind. Or I could get a flowerpot for our apartment. Or do you want a succulent for our apartment? Theyâre cuteïżœïżœïżœâ
âMinghao, calm down. Take a deep breath.â You wait until you hear his exaggerated huffing and puffing, and you smile. Minghao talks a mile a minute when he gets excited, but you love it. âGreat. Iâd love to get a plant for our apartment. Iâm bringing my cactus with me, so we could draw cute faces on the flowerpots and have them be friends.â
âDidnât you already draw something on your cactusâ pot, though?â
âYeah, but thereâs plenty of space to add on. Wait, let me show you.â You stand, padding toward your window and throwing open the curtains. Outside, the faint streaks of sunset paint the sky, illuminated by the fading glow of daylight. You grab your cactus from the window sill and walk back to your desk, holding it up to your phone.
âOh, I like all the doodles,â Minghao remarks as you turn your plant this way and that. When you show him the back, where youâve painted a crescent moon, his eyes soften. âYou painted a moon on there.â
When Minghao graduated and left for New York, he promised that heâd always be there for you in spirit. After all, he had said, when you could look up to the same moon he saw, it was almost like he was there with you. âWhenever itâs cloudy at night or when thereâs a new moon and I canât see the moon, I just look at this instead,â you admit, running your finger over the paint.
âGod, Iâm so in love with you.â
âI know,â you smile softly, looking back up at your phone screen. âThatâs exactly how I feel about you.â
âI know.â
Minghao stays on the phone with you for ten more minutes before he hangs up to go grocery shopping.
âIâll see you soon, Minghao,â you say before you end the call.
Outside, the moon hasnât risen yet, the sky an inky black. Tonight, though, you donât need to watch the moon to deal with missing Minghao. Tonight, you sit back, content with waiting thirteen more days to see him.
D-10.
âIâm always so worried that this might be the last time I see my friends,â you whisper into the silence. Itâs nearing midnight, but your mind is racing. You just got back from a long dinner with your friends and classmates, which was a fun affair, but now existential dread is creeping up on you.
âI felt the same way when I first graduated,â Minghao admits. Youâre Facetiming him again, but your phone lays flat on your bed as you shuffle around, trying to drink in all the details of your room before you have to leave. âI still worry that Iâll never see some of them again. But theyâre always one text away, and I make time to see everyone important to me.â
âYeah. True.â You sigh. âStill, though. Iâm gonna miss everyone. I miss you too, you know, even though Iâll be in New York soon.â
âI know. I miss you every day.â
You fall back onto your bed, grabbing your phone and holding it above your face. âI donât⊠I donât want to suffer through missing my friends while knowing that we probably wonât live in the same city again, you know? Missing you is slightly more bearable because I know weâll end up in the same place, but thereâs no guarantee for everyone else.â
âYeah, and it sucks. But youâll still be in touch with them, and youâll make new friends.â
âYeah.â
âYeah.â
In the middle of the night, after you hang up and youâre all alone, you gaze up at the moon for strength.
D-5.
After walking across the stage and throwing your graduation cap in the air, youâre finally free from school. You donât have much time to talk to Minghaoâyour day is packed with ceremonies and partiesâbut heâs just as excited as you are.
âTwo years and Iâm done!â you half-shout over the chattering in the background.
âIâm so proud of you, baby. Show me your graduation cap!â
You pluck it off your head and hold it in front of you with one hand, rotating it this way and that like a steering wheel. âItâs about the same as the undergraduate cap. I did get this hood, though. It almost feels like a cape.â
âYou could be a superhero that has caffeine for blood, or something, and your kryptonite could be history tests.â
âGod, donât remind me of those. Iâm free now, remember?â
You talk for a few more minutes before your friends remind you of the graduation party at 4 pm, and you have to hang up to get ready. Before you hang up, Minghao bombards you with reminders of how proud he is, before you finally have to go.
âIâll see you soon,â he says.
D-1.
âReally? Youâre still doing last-minute packing?â Minghao asks as you throw some shoes into your suitcase.
âShh, I blame you for distracting me with late-night calls.â
âYou find me to be distracting?â
You roll your eyes, ducking down to grab your folded towels and plop them on your bed. âMhm, always have. Donât get cocky, though.â
Heâs smirking when you look back to the phone screen.
âMinghao! I just said not to get cocky.â
âCâmon, let me have this moment.â
You sigh dramatically, glancing around your nearly-empty room and making a mental checklist of things to pack in the morning. âYouâll get to the airport at 2 tomorrow, right?â
âYeah. Terminal C, right?â
âRight. Canât wait to C you then.â He groans, and you canât help but prolong the joke. âGet it? C you?â
âI feel so bad for your roommates. I bet you tortured them with constant bad puns during exam season.â
âNo comment.â
At 8:21, your roommate Jieqiong starts the last movie night youâll share together, and you bid Minghao goodbye. Still, you find comfort in the fact that this is the last goodnight youâll send over Facetime for a long time.
âIâll see you tomorrow, Minghao,â you say, blowing him a kiss.
âSee you tomorrow.â
D-Day.
âI just got done picking up my suitcases,â you say, slipping an earbud into your right ear as you drop your phone in your pocket. As you grab the handles of your luggage, you scan the baggage claim area for an exit and start walking toward the sliding doors at the end of the row of conveyors.
âAwesome, I just saw some people walk out,â Minghao says. âIâm here waiting.â
Suddenly, you feel very small as the gravity of the situation weighs on you. Minghao is behind those doors, waiting. Youâre about to start a new life together, staying in the same city for the first time in two years. âWhat if I canât find you?â you all but whisper, halting your footsteps.
âThen weâll just keep looking for each other. Take your time, baby.â
âIâyeah, okay.â You will your legs to move again. âWill you stay on the call with me?â
âOf course.â
âOkay.â A comfortable silence falls as you pass the exit checkpoint, stepping out of the sliding doors to the pickup area. âOkay, I just walked outside andââ
And then your gaze falls on a certain young man wearing a top in your favorite shade of light blue. What catches your attention is the poster heâs holding, with âmy moonâ written on it in loopy handwriting and a cartoon moon doodled next to it.
Your face nearly splits open from how wide your smile is.
âI see you.â
Day 1.
You wake up with your face pressed into Minghaoâs chest.
âGood morning,â you whisper. âAre you awake?â
Minghao groans. âFive more minutes,â he mutters. âWhat time is it?â
You glance around the room until you find his clock on his bedside table. â9:45. We have lots of time before we have to meet my parents for lunch.â
âMm. Good.â He wraps an arm around your waist. âIâm glad youâre here, sleepyhead.â
You scoot closer. âYouâre the one asking for more sleep, mister.â
âYouâre the one whoâs warm and soft and cuddly. I love you, y/n.â
Closing your eyes, you nuzzle your head into his chest and relax into his embrace. âI love you, Minghao.â

Mini Fanfic #800: Starting the New Vacation Day (Super Smash Bros Ultimate)
10:12 a.m. at Isle Defino's Patio.......
Dark Pit: (Slams hie Hands On the Table) ('SLAM') Alright, dumbasses. Any of you got any ideas on what we're gonna do here today?
Pit: There's so many places to choose from.....I'm not even sure where go to first.
Yoshi: I spotted this cool looking ramen shop a few blocks from here. Maybe we can go there for lunch later.
Ryuji: (Smiles Softly) I'm down. Their ramen might be good. Maybe even better than Min-Min's.
Elsewhere in Isle Defino.....
Min-Min: (Let's Out a Sudden Sneeze) ('Chu')
Capt. Falcon: You alright there, Min?
Min-Min: (Quick Turns to Falcon) Oh. Uh yeah. I'm fine, Captain. I could've sworn felt a distrubence just now.....
Capt. Falcon: (Shrugs) Eh. Probably just the heat weather.
Min-Min: Maybe..........
Back to the Patio.....
Dark Pit: That's one place down. Anything else?
Yusuke: I, for one, plan on going to the beach side of this island to begin my new creation thoroughly.
Ryuji: (Gives Yusuke a Bit of a Playful Smirk on his Face) Gonna find more crabs to draw, my man?
Yusuke: Not quite I'm afraid. I am more interested in finding unique and rare forms of seashells if anything. (Turns to Tails) And it seems I might need your mechanic assistance on this, Tails.
Tails: (Smiles a Bit Sheepishly at the Inspired Young Artist) I....didn't really bring my tools here with me. So I can't really help you on a mechanical level. But I can buy you a metal detector if you want.
Yusuke: (Smiles Softly) That sounds like a good enough comparison. Many thanks, my two tailed friend.
Tails: (Giggles Softly While Blushing a Little) No problem, Yusuke.
???: Morning, peeps.
Ryuji: Hey, morning bro- (Eyes Suddenly Widened For a Brief Second Before Snickering at the Sight of Making his Way to the Table With Red Kiss Marks on his Face) Dude, is that really you?
Ren: (Seats Himself Down) In the flesh.
Dark Pit: (Sighs While Pinching his Nose) Alright. I'll bite. (Turns to Ren) Why are you covered in kiss marks?
Ren: Oh. Well, Makoto and I found out that today's Kiss Day earlier thos morning. So Makoto decided to pull on the red lipstick Ann brought her for her birthday a few months ago, and started kissing my face. (Smirks Softly at the Memory) Loved every minute of it too~
Pit: And you still have kiss marks on you.....why exactly?
Ren: (Shrugs) Eh. No real reason really. Just felt it showing it to the world a bit longer, you know? (Noticed the Gang is Staring at Him) What?
Yoshi: You know what we're gonna ask you now, right?
Everyone: WHY AREN'T YOU TWO MARRIED YET!!?
Ren: Hey! Come on! We will! Just in the near future, alright? We JUST graduated high school together.
Pit: I still wanna be a Ring Bearer!!
?????: Who's wedding are we talking about again?
Tails: (Turns and Sighs Once He Sees Sonic Sitting Next to Him With Having Pink Kiss Marks All Around his Face) Let me guess: Amy found out today's Kiss Day and kissed you like crazy?
Sonic: Yup. Mom and pa blurted it out on our double date yesterday and the rest was history.
Tails: (Smirks at Sonic Playfully) You enjoyed minute of it, didn't you?~
Sonic: (Sighs While Blushing) Yeah......(Smiles a Little While Slouching his Head Down a Little) That girl sure knows how to kiss a guy, you know?~
Tails: (Chuckles Lightly) I believe so, Mr. Lover Boy~
Sonic: Keep making fun of me and it'll be your turn soon enough, Tails (Starts Smirking Playfully Himself) And with a certain bandicoot girl nonetheless~
Tails: (Already Has a Deadpinned Look on his Face) How many times do I have to keep telling you people that we're JUST FRIENDS? There's no way Coco and I would ever participate in something like that.
Sonic: Okay....(Smirk Starts Growing a Bit Wider) But why did you let her kiss you under the mistletoe though?~
Tails: (Eyes Widened in Complete Shock) H-How did you.....
Sonic: Wave told Amy and I all about it when it all happened. (Gives Tails a Thumbs Up) And we already approved~
Tails: (Immediately Turns Away From Sonic While Blushing) S-Shut Up......
Morgana: (Sighs While Sitting Down on The Group's Table With Multi Color Kiss Marks (Pink, Blue, and Green) All Over His Face) Morning......
Ren: (Starts Snickering at Morgana Along With Ryuji and Pit) Damn, Mona. You too?
Morgana: Yeah. Me too. Once Futuba found out that today was Kiss Day, she SOMEHOW convinced Haru and Lavenza to kiss me. With different Lipstick colors!!
Ryuji: (Still Snickering) C'mon, cat. Look on the bright side. At least one of your kissers was a certain Velvet girl you've been crushing on~
Ren: (Teasingly Nodded in Agreement)
Morgana: (Glares at Ryuji) .......Ryuji. One of these days when I become human again and grow older, I will do everything in my power to suplex you into the ground.
Ryuji: (Chuckles Lightly) Cute threat, Mona, but uh...(Hold Both of his Arms Up While Showing Off his Muscles) ('Heh') I got bit stronger as of late. So might it take you a lot years before you even lift a finger on me, you know?
Morgana: ('Sighs in Defeat') Crap. You're right. It'll be too long if I waited.....Oh well. When all else fails, I can always kick you in shins.
Ryuji: (Glares at Morgana) Do it and I'll chase you to end the Earth, cat.
Morgana: (Glares at Ryuji) Wanna bet?
Ryuji: If you're up for it!
Dark Pit: Calm your asses down already. We still haven't decided what the first thing we should do here-
With the sound of two girls giggling with one another, the gang turns to see Ann and Shiho making their way to the table together while having kiss marks on each of their faces.
Ryuji: Geez....Even Ann and Shiho got into the holiday.....
Ren: Right?
Ann: Hey, guys. (Sit Herself Down Next to Shiho While Giggling Softly)) You're probably wondering why we're-
Ren: You two found out about Kiss Day is today. So it led to the both of you making out. Am I right?
Shiho: Wait. How did you- (Starts Snickering Once She Noticed the Kiss Marks on his Face) Did Makoto seriously kiss all over your face?~
Ren: (Smirks Proudly) Yep! It might be the most cutest thing she done so far~ Don't tell her I said that by the way.
Ann: ('Sigh') You know, Ren, it astounds me that you two have been acting like a married couple since since day one and yet neither of you STILL have proposal to one another yet!
Ren: Um. Does "We just graduated" doesn't ring you any bells, Takamaki? And besides, if anything, I'm surprised YOU TWO having proposal to one another yet. You already have apartment together and give each other pet names. Might as start now while you're ahead.
Ann: Oh trust me. Shiho and I WILL marry each other very soon and you are gonna be our best man.
Ren: (Eyes Widened a Little in Genuine Surprise) Oh shit. Really?
Ann: (Giggles Softly) Yes. Really. You're one of my best friends, Ren. I can't think of anyone else to fit that role better than you. Well, I mean, there's Ryuji, but.... I'm not sure if could take up the role that well. (Turns to Ryuji) No offense.
Ryuji: Eh. It's no problem. (Smiles Brightly at Ren) I totally see Ren being Best Man material lot more than I could.
Ren: Huh. Well, if that's really what you girls want....(Smiles Softly) I'd be happy to be your future Best Man.
Ann: (Squeals Happily While Pulling Ren into a Loving Hug) Thank you so much, Ren-Ren!~
Shiho: (Happily Joins into the Hug) You have no idea how happy you made us-
Pit: (Suddenly Slams the Table With Excitement) ('SLAM') I GOT IT!
Dark Pit: (Turns to Pit Along With Everyone Else) What is it, Pit-Stain?
Pit: I just thought of something we could do first! Souvenir shopping!
'Silence'
'Wave Sounds'
Yoshi: You.....got any ideas, Pit?
Pit: (Happily Nodded) Yep! We can go souvenir shopping together. All this talk about Kiss Day has really made me miss Viridi a lot more than before. (Smiles Brightly) So I wanna buy her souvenir gift we could enjoy, you know?
Ann: Awwwww~ Pit~ Of course we can go souvenir shopping together.
Shiho: (Smiles Softly) We can even help you pick something nice for her and everything.
Sonic: You ladies mind helping my little bro with that too. (Smirks Teasingly Again) He has a Bandicoot Girl back home to impress~
Tails: (Glares at Sonic While Blushing Again) D-Don't you ever shut up anymore, Sonic!? And besides, I already promised Yusuke that I would buy him that metal detector!
Yusuke: (Gives Tails a Reassuring Smile) Oh there's really no need for you to go to the trouble to buy it for me. I believe you should use it give your lady friend something nice.
Sonic: See? Yusuke's gets it.
Tails: ('Sighs in Defeat') Fine..... I'll buy her a souvenir. But NOT because I have a crush! She's my best friend and nothing more.
Sonic: Whatever you say, lil' bro.
Ryuji: (Turns to Morgana) Hey, Mona, maybe you should try souvenir shopping too. (Starts Smirking Again) Maybe something nice your Velvet girl~
Morgana: (Eye Starts Twitching Before Turning to Ren) Seriously. Can I PLEASE kick his shins already!?
Ren: No.
Ann: Be nice to Ryuji, Mona.
Mona: ('Ugh') Fine......
Yoshi: (Turns to Dark Pit) We should give it a shot, DP. You could buy something nice for your girlfriends back home.
Dark Pit: I don't know....There might be a possibility that they won't it.
Yoshi: Ah don't be like that. I'm sure they'll love anything you get for them. Even if isn't fancy like or whatever.
Dark Pit: Wait. How much souvenirs usually cost exactly?
Yoshi: (Shrugs) I dunno. Five to ten bucks maybe?
Dark Pit: (Shrugs as Well) Eh. Fuck it. I'm down.
Pit: Alright! All in favor of Souvenir Shopping say 'AYE'!
Everyone: 'AYE'
Happy Kiss! (Again!)

those magic changes | eddie & nell
TIMING: before nell was yoinked into the hellscape. LOCATION: gallows grove. PARTIES: Â @specterchasing & @nelllraiser. SUMMARY: eddie and nell have some much needed post-highschool catching up while a spawn tries to catch them up. CONTAINS: sucidal ideation (eddieâs general disregard for his life).
The Bend, also known as the bad part of town, also known as Eddieâs favorite part of town, looked particularly derelict the day he and Nell decided to meet up. The sun hung low overhead, threatening to swap places with the moon at any moment. Meanwhile, within the depths of the sewers, an especially hungry vampire awaited the transition with rapidly diminishing patience. His sire botched his shot at immortality, making him a mindless spawn but, what he lacked in brains, he made up for in brutality.
Eddie parked outside a stretch of abandoned homes only a few blocks away from the spawnâs location. He took a sweeping glance at his surroundings, but there was no one in sight. His hand slipped into his back pocket and retrieved his phone before texting Nell in search of an update.
[Text to Nellspawn]: Itâs 7:46 and we agreed on meeting at 7:45.
[Text to Nellspawn]: If you hate me, say it to my face, coward. ):
Nell crept up to Eddieâs car like a cat, making not a single sound as she ducked below the side of it- for once grateful that she was shorter than was ideal. Her phone buzzed in her pocket, and she smirked as she read the illuminated words on the screen. In the blink of an eye she was jumping from her hiding spot into Eddieâs window, slamming the screen of her phone against the driverâs side window of Eddieâs car as she yelled out. âI got your text!â Hopefully heâd at least jump a little. Or maybe sheâd be so lucky as to get a small little scream that she could mock him for.Â
Out of nowhere, Nell popped into Eddieâs peripheral vision and his heart leapt into his throat. He jumped in his seat, clutching his chest with wide eyes. âHoly fucking shit,â he breathed. As he gradually calmed down, his expression of terror turned into one of utter disdain. Eddie rolled down the window, glaring up at Nell. âHey, could you do me a favor and stand in front of my car for a second?â he asked. âI promise Iâll make it quick.â
Nell practically cackled as she watched the fear very possibly shave a few years off Eddieâs life, sticking her tongue out at him through the window. âSurprise! I could tell youâre really happy to see me. I donât think Iâve seen anyone look like that since the time I saw a toddler witnessing their first boggart going in on the peanut butter aisle of the grocery store.â Just in case he didnât pick up on what she was insinuating, she made sure to rub it in. âGet it? Iâm comparing you to a toddler. A small child.â Rolling her eyes she took a step back from the car door, giving him room should he choose to open it. âAs if your car would stand a chance against me. Iâm made of steel.â For a moment she flexed her arms in the classic pose, though you couldnât begin to see anything past the looser sleeves of her jacket. There was simply something about seeing Eddie that made her feel as if she were as careless as the day sheâd left White Crest. As if all the terrible things since then hadnât come to pass. He was clean- a slate that wasnât marred by being present for any of the atrocities of the past year or so.
Eddie willed himself to continue glaring at her, but the truth was that it felt good to hear her laugh again. Like most, Eddie viewed high school as hell on earth, but drama class with Nell gave him a sliver of hope to hold onto each day. âYouâre three feet tall, you donât get to call me a toddler.â Eddie rolled the window up and stepped out of the car. âIt might take a few tries, but you know what they say about wills and ways,â he said, finally giving in to the urge to grin. He couldnât remember the last time he saw herâgraduation, maybe. Those years were more blurs than memories at this point. âFuck it,â he said before taking a step closer and pulling her into a hug.
âI am not!â Nell stomped petulantly against the ground, not entirely helping her case. âIâm just saying if the toddler stroller fits you- who am I to argue?â Nevertheless her own grin was still bright on her lips, feeling lighter by the second the faster she and Eddie fell into old ways. Itâd been..shit- itâd been almost six years, but it felt all too easy to pick up where theyâd left off. âYeah- they say Penelope Vural has the strongest will and the best ways, and no carâs ever gonna stop her.â Her laugh was lighter, less sharp as he stepped forward for a hug, and she embraced him back without hesitation. âI canât believe youâve gone soft on me, Carridine,â she teased before her gaze flickered over his shoulder to the nearby cemetery. âSo youâre still stupidly bent on getting yourself snacked on in there?â One of the things that she and Eddie unfortunately had in common was that they were nearly impossible to sway once theyâd made up their minds to do something idiotic. And she wasnât keen to watch while White Crest swallowed up the friend sheâd only just reunited with.
She hadnât changed, not from what heâd seen so far. It felt like stepping out of a time machine and reliving a period in his life when the most pressing issues he faced revolved around timed tests and peer pressure. âItâs your fault for leaving me, Vural,â Eddie replied, giving her a tight squeeze before stepping back and shoving his hands into his jacketâs pockets. âItâs not stupid if you film it, then itâs art,â he said as he backed up a few steps closer to the rear door of his car. He turned on his heels and pulled the hand before ducking in to grab his filming equipment. âBesides, we might not even run into anything worthwhile,â he said with a shrug as he pulled the bagâs strap onto his shoulder.
The physical scars Nell had gained since seeing Eddie were tucked away under layers of clothing, always prone to the cold. Thankfully it seemed the scars on her soul had seen fit to fade into the background for the moment being as well, leaving her to freely bask in the warmth of Eddieâs company. âDonât tell me youâre thinking about going to cry in a Subway again,â she joked dryly, folding her arms over her chest. âIâm pretty sure that makes it more stupid, actually.â If this had been six years ago she most likely would have been all for diving headlong into a cemetery, and sheâd still do that if it was only her going in. But there was another life at stake here as well, and it wasnât one she was willing to risk. âYeah- weâll see.â She was too jaded at this point to feel optimistic about not running into something lurking in the cemetery, already knowing vampires loved to lurk in their shadows. Sheâd brought a stake just in case, more than ready for if things went south.
âDonât knock it âtill you try it,â Eddie advised in response to her comment about shedding tears in sandwich shops. His hand raised and mimicked a flapping jaw at her next comment. Whether or not his plans were stupid, it wouldnât stop him. His already poor decision-making continued to deteriorate with each passing day. He told Bex he would be careful but, as much as he didnât want to disappoint her, he didnât know the first thing about showing caution. And, frankly, he showed no interest in learning. Eddieâs outlook on life made being alive out to be more of a chore than a priceless gift.Â
âYou wanna do an intro for the channel?â he asked, digging out his camera. âOr did you somehow become the type of person who values anonymity?â Eddieâs brow raised at Nell as he walked passed her en route to the cemetery.Â
âNo- I donât think Iâll be trying it, thanks. I would, but it makes it a little hard since I have something called dignity. Donât worry, I wouldnât expect you to be familiar with the concept. I will keep knocking it, though,â Nell teased, that same playful glint still making a home in her eyes. âWow!â The word was stretched out as long as she could make it last, offense plain to see in the way her eyebrows had raised towards her hairline. âI canât believe you just admitted you donât watch any of the TikToks I make for the newspaper. You think Iâd be doing that if I valued anonymity?â She still wasnât sure how sheâd managed to land the job, reveling in the pay and benefits for the minimal amount of work she did.
âYouâd be lucky to have me in your intro!â In another moment she was parroting the old intro sheâd seen on his channel the times sheâd tuned in, letting the words fall none too sweetly as she poked fun at him. She was pretty sure the camera wasnât even out yet- but that didnât have her hesitating.
âDignity,â Eddie mused, sounding as if he were trying to dredge up the definition from deep within his memory banks. âYouâre right, Iâm drawing a blank. Is dignity the reason you got drunk at Hayden Daneâs house party and asked everyone for soap to appease the bathroom demon? Yeah, I donât think I have that.â He shrugged all the way up to his ears. It didnât occur to him that a demon actually did take up roost in Haydenâs bathroom, explaining why his house burned down two days later. Eddie knew a lot about ghosts and decidedly less about infernal imps. Â
âThereâs a pretty big difference between newspaper TikToks and showing your face on a YouTube channel exposing White Crestâs supernatural underbelly,â he replied with a glance. âMost people donât want to be associated with it. I actually watch your content all the time. Itâs⊠kind of how I learned you were back in town and had been for a while.â A year of radio silence. No point acting like it didnât sting a little.
At the sound of Nell repeating his old intro back at him, Eddie clutched his chest in despair. âNo,â he whined, turning to face her again. âLet it stay dead, Nell. Iâm not that person anymore.â The camera in his hand raised in her direction. âHereâs your chance at YouTube fame. If you embarrass me, Iâll get your house haunted.â
Nell rolled her eyes fondly at the memory of the little Bannik that sheâd found in Haydenâs bathroom, having been utterly thrilled to stumble across a demon in her drunken state. It had been in the midst of her beginning to acquaint herself with the demon species and portalsâ so of course sheâd been all too eager to find some soap for the little creature. âYouâre lucky I was there to appease the bathroom demon. You all would have been long gone if it wasnât for my quick thinking.â Were Banniks actually all that dangerous? Absolutely not. But Eddie didnât need to know that.Â
âMhm- White Crestâs supernatural underbelly,â she repeated dryly, still not all that pleased that Eddie had made it his lifeâs mission to single handedly crack open supernatural secrecy. âYou know thatâs a great way to get people killed, right? What youâre doing with your videos and stuff?âÂ
Stepping through the threshold of the cemetery, Nellâs mouth was already propped open to give her next quip of a reply when a chill ran down her spine. Whether it was the product of being attacked from the shadows one too many times, or an actual premonition- she was suddenly quiet. She began to scan the tombstones with a sharp eye, as if something might be lurking behind them. Then...a low snarling sound, and Nell realized sheâd been right to have come as Eddieâs personal bodyguard. âShut up,â she hissed, already trying to pinpoint where the sound was coming from, a hand slipping one of her hidden stakes from its hiding place.
Eddie eyed Nell skeptically. âUh-huh,â he uttered. The likelihood of Nell being right about the soap-loving fiend was actually pretty high, but Eddie didnât care to admit that. He much preferred giving her a hard time, and the feeling seemed mutual enough to dissuade any guilt.
âYou know what else is a great way to get people killed? Keeping them ignorant,â Eddie retaliated without missing a beat. âSo long as I try to avoid outing individuals, Iâm pretty sure Iâm in the clear.â This was an argument he knew well, the beginning of it anyway. People didnât usually bother trying to correct him once they knew how firmly he stood his ground. They saw him as a lost cause, he saw them as uninformed.
Nell seemed on-edge, which Eddie didnât understand. As much time as he spent in graveyards, he never developed a sixth sense for danger. Mostly, out of lack of interest. âYeah, thatâs a great intro,â he deadpanned. The sight of a stake made him lower his camera. âWhat are you doing? Nowâs not the time to showcase your Buffy cosplay.â He didnât hear the growl over his own voice.
Nell had never backed down from a fight, argument, or otherwise in her entire life, her stubbornness and determination matching Eddieâs in a way that hadnât been fully explored quite yet. After all, theyâd agreed on most things in highschool, but as was often the case with the supernaturalâ things got far more complicated when it entered the picture, and relationships were no exception. So she was more than ready to fire back a retort before another growl pierced the night air, and she shushed Eddie once again. âI said shu-â But her words didnât meet and end as the spawn finally leapt from the shadows taking advantage of her momentary distraction to begin its attack.
Rolling in a smooth and practiced maneuver, Nell clutched the stake like a lifeline in her hand staying low to the ground as she readied her magic should she need it. âDonât move,â she gave Eddie another command as she tried to draw a large circle around the spawn with her footsteps. But the thing had taken one look at the stake in her hand and decided to go for the easier target. In the blink of an eye, the spawn had shifted course, turning towards Eddie with bloodlust in its eyes.Â
Eddie let out a startled laugh at the sight of the vampire, his usual reaction to imminent danger. He instinctively raised the camera as Nell momentarily outsmarted the beast. Asking her where she learned a maneuver like that would have to wait.
âGonna have to deliberately disobey that order,â Eddie said once the spawn locked onto him. A familiar surge of adrenaline flooded his system and Eddie jouked to the right, an outstretched hand commanding a small cross to fly from a nearby grave into his grip. He was lacking in the faith department, but desperate times called for desperate measures. âFuck off, fuck off, fuck off,â he chanted as he waved it in the spawnâs direction.
The raising of his camera wasnât lost on Nell, and she shook her head in disbelief as the spawn tore after Eddie. Really? Even now Eddie was trying to get a shot? âYou canât upload a video if you die, dumbass!â Nell yelled, already hot on the spawnâs trail while it flew after Eddie like a bat out of hell. Which...wasnât actually all that terrible a description of the lesser vampire when Nell thought about it. At least her friend had enough sense to arm himself with some religious memorabilia, though the spawn had yet to spot it while being far too intent on having its next meal.
The creature was faster than Nell could have ever been without a hunter gene or otherwise, but thankfully she had her own tricks up her sleeve. Casting one of her oft-used spells when it came to fighting, her speed was instantly buffed, and she became a blur even quicker than the spawn. The burst was enough to get her on top of the spawn and send herself barreling into the side of it, trying to find purchase with her stake. She was by no means all that large of a projectile standing at only 5â2 and having a slight build, but the momentum sheâd gathered was enough to shoot the spawn off its path. The spawn was quick to recover, snapping at the hand that held her wooden point and clamping its jaws down on her wrist. With a curse falling from her lips, the weapon was forced out of her hand.Â
âWhat the fuck?â Eddie exclaimed when a Nell-sized blur collided with the vampire. Questions piled up, giving him a reason to outlast the encounter. The spawn recalibrated with deadly quickness, and blood subsequently flowed from Nellâs wrist. As much as Eddie liked to pretend situations like this fit his laissez faire narrative, he couldnât stand idly by while someone he cared about bled for his mistakes.
His camera hit the ground while his feet carried him to Nellâs side. With little regard for his own wellbeing, Eddie pressed the cross to the side of the spawnâs head. It sizzled against the wrinkled skin, sending the creature reeling backwards with a shriek.
âYou dropped this,â Eddie said breathlessly as he floated the stake to Nellâs uninjured hand, hoping she would take hold of it. He stayed next to her, holding out the cross to hopefully keep the beast at bay long enough for Nell to plan out her next move. But it looked hungry and Eddie couldnât imagine it had much patience.
Nell grimaced while she did her best to ignore the injured wrist, giving Eddie a grateful nod as she caught the stake heâd floated in her direction. She couldnât deny that she was enthralled by the encounter with the spawn, and she would have been enjoying herself even more if Eddie hadnât been involved in the crossfire. Not for the first time, she felt like she was back in the Ring, fighting for her life and the winnings of those whoâd bet on her. She couldnât deny that she missed the rush of battling for her life, and the roar of the crowd.Â
The cross move had been smart on Eddieâs part, and Nell supposed she should at least count herself lucky that he knew enough to know what had the ability to ward off vampires. âJust go-â she began to say, unwilling to risk Eddieâs life any further. She didnât wait to see if heâd obeyed, once again rushing forward with a speed she shouldnât have possessed. The stake in her good hand plunged forwards through the spawnâs chest, but her efforts were fruitless beyond making the creature even angrier. At the last second itâd darted to the side, shifting just enough for the point to miss its heart.
With a growl of frustration, Nell decided she was done with trying to hit a moving target. She kicked a leg into the air to hook it behind the thingâs head, using her momentum to swing herself up by the crook of her knee until sheâd sat herself on the spawnâs shoulders, hands placed on either side of its head. âJust gotta bring the inside out,â she reminded herself as she gripped her magic tight. She could feel itâs sludge-like blood responding to her will as itâs head began to fill with more than it could hold. Pulling her hands from the creatureâs head, she tugged on the blood sheâd pooled, bursting the spawnâs head in an explosion of brains and viscera. With the remains of the spawn painting her front, she slipped from itâs twitching body, catching her breath while she looked to see where Eddie might have gone.Â
Nell told him to go, but Eddie couldnât look away, let alone move. She climbed the vampire with precision and put a bloody end to it. He went momentarily slack-jawed. âWhat the fuck?â he breathed, sounding like a broken record. Eddie trudged towards Nell, remembering a final obstacle stood between him and the answers he wanted so badly. He placed the cross in his back pocket, making a mental note to return it to its rightful grave before they left, and reached out for her injured wrist.
âCan I take a look at it?â he asked timidly, wanting to make up for the harm he caused her. âOr do you have some kind of spell for that, too?â He eyed her curiously, fine with either answer. If she had a handle on her blood loss, he would need to figure out a new way to make tonight up to her, but he could work with that. âI think the best I can do is a band-aid, anyway.â He offered her an apologetic shrug.
Nell fixed Eddie with a disapproving look the moment she realized he hadnât actually moved an inch since sheâd told him to leave. âYou know- usually the best way not to get killed is to listen to me.â Mindlessly, she let him take her wrist, not entirely having expected him to ask for it, but offering it nonetheless. Her head tilted in amusement as he mentioned spells, realizing heâd already pegged what was going on. âYou mean youâre not buying the whole- I just got really buff after highschool or something like that?â To be fair she had gained more muscle, but it was of a leaner make than anything a bodybuilder might have.Â
âWell- itâs not really...a spell but-â As he eyed her wrist she willed the blood to clot where the skin had been broken, once again flexing her bloodkinesis as the wound scabbed over. âI can just do that for the most part. I never really learned a lot of healing.â She gave him a smile anyway, coming down from the high of the kill slowly but surely. âYou can still put a band-aid on it though, if you want,â she teased, though thankful for his concern.
âYeah, but whereâs the fun in that?â Eddie replied flippantly. For Nellâs sake, he kept his indifference towards death light-hearted. Whichever way the wind blew, Eddie didnât mind much. Either he lived another day, or he didnât. In his opinion, both options seemed eerily similar. âWe can play pretend, if you want, but Iâd rather pick your brain about magic.â He knew another spellcaster, Bex, but she didnât seem as advanced as Nell. âGod, how did it take me this long to figure it out?â
Nell healed herself, in a sense, and Eddieâs eyes widened with delight. âSo cool,â he said, catching her gaze again. âYou donât have to coddle me. I get it, youâre all tough and scary now. Way beyond band-aids.â As he spoke, he meandered back to the grave heâd stolen from and returned the cross with a quiet apology. Ghost or not, they deserved more respect than heâd given them.Â
Returning to Nell, Eddie knew better than to think theyâd walk back to his car without a good lecture. âIâm fully prepared to be scolded now, by the way. Hit me with your best shot.â
Eddie might have thought his jokes about dying were landing decently, but Nellâs face didnât so much as twitch into a smile as he spoke the words. After the last year...after the last six years she knew that death wasnât a joke. She supposed it made sense that Eddie would have a skewed vision of it as a medium, but that didnât mean she had to encourage him. Maybe heâd feel differently if heâd watched someone he loved die, woken up covered in her blood with her headless body lying next to him on the ground. Shaking her head to dispel the dark memory, she simply sent him another stern glare. âNo fun in dying, really.â She wasnât going to entertain his frivolity when it came to his life. But magic was easier to talk about, and something that wasnât tainted by her trauma. Her voice grew lighter again, curious to know what he himself was curious about. âSure- what do you wanna know? Or how much do you know already? It probably just took you so long cause you couldnât see around your giant hair,â she teased, leaning on an old laugh.Â
Another little smile crossed her face while she watched his reaction to the magic, always thinking it endearing the reactions of those who were less acquainted with it. âActually Iâve always been scary and tough, thank you very much,â she joked with a wrinkle of her noseâ even though sheâd gotten in more than her fair share of fights in highschool.Â
Picking up his busted camera from the ground, Nell thumbed some dirt from itâs lens before taking a closer look, trying to figure out if a simple repair spell might have it back in working condition. Heâd asked for a lecure, and she was left wondering when sheâd become the kind of person who doled them out. âThis isnât a game, Eddie,â she began seriously. She should have known the levity of the start of the evening wouldnât last. Not in a place like White Crest. âYou canât just waltz into supernatural infested areas without protection. And you shouldnât be doing it in the first place.â
Nell didnât laugh, but that was nothing new. Eddie understood that most people took death more seriously than he did, and he knew they had their reasons. On the other hand, their solemnity didnât invalidate his indifference. He preferred not caring, it made life easier. The subject-change suited him just fine, however. âThe conditioner I use doesnât help either, eats at the brain cells, yâknow,â he said, going along with her joke. âIâll be honest, I donât know much. Magicâs fascinating, but Iâve always been satisfied with the whole telekinesis thing, so I didnât do much digging. So, feel free to talk to me like Iâm an idiot, not that you need my encouragement,â he teased.
âTaking on a vampire is a little different than maiming Cindy S,â he playfully corrected her. Eddie knew Nell had never been a push-over, but this was groundbreaking as far as he was concerned.
As expected, she provided words of warning. He nodded along absently, his eyes fixed on the camera in her hands. If he kept up at this rate, he wouldnât be filming for much longer, anyway. Lack of equipment meant lack of content. âAnd, why is that?â he asked curiously when she finished bending his ear. He figured he knew the reason, or at least the jist, but he wanted to give Nell the benefit of the doubt. Maybe, her reasoning wouldnât be as boring as everyone elseâs.
âWe both know thatâs a lie because you donât have any brain cells to eat,â Nell commented dryly, wishing they could have stayed in the sun of their earlier conversation, the lightness of it having been reminiscent of simpler days. But these werenât simpler days anymore, and apparently the spawn and whatever bullshit this town would toss out next hadnât wanted her to forget that for more than the half an hour itâd taken for her and Eddie to get here and get into the cemetery. âYou know telekinesis is basically just another form of magic,â Nell supplied, remembering saying something similar to Blanche. An ache of longing shot through her as she thought of her best friend, wishing they could be physically closer, but knowing that Whtie Crest had essentially sapped the flush from her friendâs cheeks, and the joy that was meant to color them. âItâs cool you can work with it though since not all mediums can.â She assumed he knew as much. âBut magicâŠitâs built on a few core things...intention, will, focusâŠâ She didnât know if this was the best place for the conversation the more she looked around. For all they knew there could be another spawn lurking, or a fully fledged higher vampire who was thirsty. âWe should talk about this somewhere else, though.âÂ
âCindy S fucking deserved it,â Nell joked in reply, honestly having half forgotten the way sheâd broken the snotty girlâs nose while in highschool until Eddie brought it up. âAnd she was already halfway to being a bloodsucker with the way she acted.âÂ
Nellâs annoyance grew as he seemed more preoccupied with the camera than herself. âYouâre not even pretending to listen,â she accused, the displeasure plain in her voice. âBecause youâre either gonna end up dead or have someone else end up dead or get hurt.â She waved her wrist as a reminder, not above using it in a moment like this. âAnd maybe you donât mind being a ghost, but itâs not fucking fun for the people who care about you.â
Hearing Nell refer to something he possessed an innate knack for as âmagicâ brought a grin to Eddieâs face, a grin that grew larger when she called attention to how rare of a gift it was. Telekinesis wore him out more often than not. Even now, he felt the dull throb of an oncoming headache making itself known. But, despite the pain and exhaustion, Nellâs opinion made him feel proud. âYeah, it can be a little tricky,â he admitted, thinking back to Willow propelling him across her living room. âRight, right, totally. Time and place, I gotcha.â Eddie wouldnât have minded loitering in the cemetery until daybreak, but Nell was the one recovering from a vampire bite.
âYeah, well, all busting her face accomplished was convincing her parents to let her get a nose-job.â Eddie pursed his lips at the resurgence of long-ignored memories. Present day left a lot to be desired, but nothing could convince him to relive high school.Â
Eddie opened his mouth to assure Nell he usually went on these adventures alone, but her next comment caused him to immediately slam his jaw shut. His brows knitted together as he considered her. He wanted to argue, to insist that no one cared about him enough for it to matter. He wouldâve used her as an example, calling attention to how long it took her to reach out to him. If people cared so much, they would act like it, and he wouldnât feel so alone. But, admitting to feeling that way wouldâve made him sound pathetic.
âIâm not gonna die, donât be so dramatic,â he said, turning away to start walking towards his car. âIâll try to be more careful.â Eddie hoped she wouldnât call his bluff. âDo you need a ride?â he asked over his shoulder, eager to change the subject.
âA new nose job, and the satisfaction of leaving me and my friend alone,â Nell jokingly corrected. Cindy had been one of the ones to make fun of Blanche and the way she seemingly spoke to herself at times when addressing a ghost. She wasnât necessarily proud of the temper sheâd had in highschool, and referring to it as past tense was most likely generousâ but she liked to think sheâd improved from the even more violent youth sheâd been. Besides, sheâd break someoneâs nose for Blanche any day.Â
âYou donât know that,â Nell rebutted instantly, still annoyed at how lightly Eddie seemed to be taking everything. âYou know White Crest loves to eat people up and spit them out.â How many people had gone missing or been killed in their highschool class alone? Too fucking many. Perhaps she was leaning a little too hard on her personal feelings when it came to the matter, tired of watching people she cared about die, but if it made Eddie live another day she wasnât opposed to tough love. âThereâs a thousand and one things out there that could kill you, and youâre throwing yourself at all of them. Iâm not being dramatic.â
After years of separation, Nell couldnât tell if his words of being more careful were sincere or something heâd said to placate her, but she figured this was another conversation they shouldnât have in the middle of the cemetery with beasts potentially lurking in the shadows. âIâm not done with you,â she clarified, not wanting him to think heâd gotten out of this. âBut Iâve got my bike that I need to take home. Thanks for the offer, though.â
White Crestâs history didnât bother Eddie. He coped with his surroundings by romanticizing how capricious the town was rather than fighting against the inevitable. When people questioned him, he often wondered what made them so certain they knew how he should live his life better than he did. Whatever it was had yet to be explained to him in understandable terms. He didnât want to argue with Nell anymore.
âI said Iâll try to be more careful,â he reiterated.
Eddie stopped when Nell politely turned down his offer and turned to face her. It only felt right to pay proper attention to their goodbye. âDonât mention it,â he deflected. âIt was good seeing you again, Nell. Fingers crossed, next time will be a little cozier.â

Be my Latibule? (Changbin x Reader)
@skzrequestsâ
Request: My pace 24 w changbin? uwu im a sucker for the idea of tattooist bin lmao I so vibed with this request, I love thinking about tattoist bin
Word count: 3717
a/n: part of the reason this took so long is I had to restart it twice :(
You walk into work at Insomnia Coffee Shop and your co-worker, Sohee, greets you.
âAnyone fun yet?â You ask. She's usually in when the store opens and often gets the most interesting customers.
âNot today. But yesterday a cute guy came in and ordered 3 americanos. Turns out it was for him and 2 friends. I tried to give them for free cause he looked half dead but he wouldn't let me. Who even does that?â
While she was talking you had slipped on the ugly orange apron and scowl when you noticed someone double knotted and didn't untie the strings.
You shake your head, âprobably a college student pulling an all-nighter. What college student turns down free anything? Ugh, I wish some cute barista offered me free coffee, just, ever.â
Sohee turns and passes the drink over the counter. âFor Jeno!â
A cute guy comes up to grab and winks at her before he turns to the door. Your jaw drops a little and you slap her shoulder.
âIs he a regular?â You ask.
âNope. Said he got a recommendation from a friend and went out of his way to come. Weird day to do it though.â
You hum as the next customer comes in and you get thoroughly distracted. It isnât until he comes up to the counter and speaks that you stop staring blankly.
â1 latte, 1 americano,â his voice is low and rough and heâs a little bit intimidating honestly. Heâs got a small bit of a tattoo poking out one of the sleeves and you try and look at it before you have to turn around.
âIs that a tattoo?â You ask him when you turn around.
He rolls the short sleeve up to his shoulder to expose the full tattoo and you stare at the simple beauty of the moon and stars.
âWoah, thatâs cool!â Sohee mustâve seen him just in her peripheral⊠or she was staring like you. You nod emphatically in agreement.
He blushes a little and says âthanks. Couldnât reach this part of my arm or else I wouldâve done it myself, but I still drew it.â
âDo you work at a tattoo parlour then?â
âYeah, I do a lot of the designs for our place,â
You gasp, âcan I come look at them? Please?â You pout trying to convince him to accept your strange request. You just felt something pulling you towards these drawings and the man who made them.
He looks at you for a moment then says, âyeah, let me give you the address. When you come in just ask for Changbin.â
He pulls out a random business card, not his unfortunately, and writes down the address. He slides it over and covers his smile with a sip.
You turn back to the coffee machines as he walks out the door but Mina stops you.
âChangbin huh? He was pretty cute,â she smirks.
âHush your mouth and get back to work, brat.â
âNuh-uh! I get to leave now but if, no no not if when, you meet him we're talking about this later.â
The next day was Tuesday and, thankfully, it was mostly empty of things for you. So you pull out the piece of paper Changbin gave you and looked up the address.
It was just a couple blocks down from the coffee shop and you head out. The building is small and squished right between a bakery and a florist, basically some cheesy romance just waiting to happen.
You walked in and looked around. There were corkboards on either sidewall and they were filled with drawings pinned to them. The bottoms of them fluttered a little at the draft you brought with you.
When you looked at him the man behind the counter raised an eyebrow at you. Ah, so it was very obvious you wouldn't be in here often.
You let out a little nervous laugh, âhi, Changbin told me to come see him here?â
The man raised both eyebrows at that. You fiddled as he looked you over again then laughed a little. âChangbin!â He suddenly yelled.
From one of the closed side rooms comes a muffled voice âgo away Chan, Iâm busy!â
The man at the desk, Chan, turns back to you âsorry, heâs always like this. Heâs probably just sketching a custom.â
âOh, I can come back later if heâs busy.â
Chan doesnât answer you and instead yells at Changbin again âI know youâre not actually busy. Your partner is here to see you!â
âHey!â You protest but Chan just grins at you as you hear the door open.
âChan what the hell are you-â Changbin cuts himself off and gently smiles when he sees you âhey, didnât think you were actually gonna come.â
You smile back at him. He looks much softer when heâs smiling and you were briefly caught off guard.
âTell me again about how youâre not dating or at least interested, â Chanâs eyes flick between the shy but wide smiles on yours and Changbinâs faces.
Changbin rolls his eyes but inclines his head towards the door he was behind and you follow behind him. He closes the door most of the way behind you and then moves to sit at the desk in the far corner. There are more drawings in here and you assume all of them are his. Itâs a wide variety of subjects, from small sketches of animals and plants to large and detailed fantasy creatures.
âSorry about Chan, heâs always delighted in teasing anyone whoâs younger than him,â Changbin shakes his head, probably at Chan even though he canât see or hear in the room.
âHave you two known each other a long time then?â You ask and tilt your head a little.
âAh, yeah,â Changbin looks at you again, âmost of us met in high school and a couple joined right at the start of college. College was really when our whole group started getting close, too.â
âSounds nice,â you were paying attention to him, promise, but with such wonderful drawings surrounding you, you really couldnât help it if your attention drifted a bit.
Changbin notices and raises an eyebrow slightly, âinterested in getting one?â
âWhat? Oh, no no, not right now at least. Theyâre just⊠really, really good.â
Changbin immediately looks down and smiles, and you could swear he was blushing a bit but when he looks back up it's gone.
âThereâs a couple hidden ones in here that arenât mine. Think you can spot âem?â He challenges.
You immediately head up to one of the boards and stand about 5 centimetres away. You push a couple of them up and out of the way, making sure to be careful. There really is all sorts of stuff, Changbin must be pretty busy. A rushing river done with such detail you can almost see it moving. Swirls that when you look just right suddenly snap into focus to make an abstract, soaring bird. Nature moulded with a person or item in such a seamless way that there is not a difference between them, they are simply one continuous sight.
Youâre looking for hidden drawings, not ogling at Changbinâs skills. Right. When you move one more there is a small piece of paper. There is⊠something on it. Either Changbin drew this when he was about 5 years old or it was someone else.
âHey, I found one. I donât even know what this is though, it looks like a squiggle.â
Changbin laughs, âhold on.â
He comes and looks right over your shoulder. You can feel his hot breath on your ear and feel his chest move when he laughs at the drawing again. You quickly reign in the slight disappointment when he moves away.
âYeah, thatâs the thing Chan keeps trying to make our mascot. Felix and I wonât let him so until one of us breaks itâs two against one,â he shrugs and it doesnât look like he feels bad at all.
âDo all your friends have a drawing stashed in here somewhere?â
âWell, Iâve seen at least 16 drawings put in here so yes they all have one. Some of them and Felix, Jisungâs special twin, has hidden at least 4. Thereâs probably more that he did when I wasnât paying attention.â
âUgh, how many friends do you even have. If itâs more than, like, 6 I might be genuinely angry.â
Changbin practically cackles, âwell then get ready to be absolutely furious. Thereâs 9 of us, including myself and everyone Iâve already mentioned.â
âThatâs not even fair! How have you all been friends for so long without someone murdering someone else.â
âOh, believe me. Seungminâs wanted to. Unfortunately, his best friends are some of our greatest problem children. Though sometimes I'm pretty sure he'll murder them first.â
âAny other possible murderers I should worry about seeing?â You flip a couple more pictures up, still passively looking for any other weird drawings. Â
âHm, Minho's murderous intentions are usually directed at Jisung. He'd do it for his cats too, though. He definitely fits in well.â
âWere there concerns about him not fitting in?â
âYeah 'cause, he was the last one to join us, but heâs just as chaotic if not more. For Chanâs graduation night he insisted on using some mini firework things he found. Nearly lit himself and Jisung on fire with the very first one.â
Something clicks in your brain. Youâve heard this story before, from one of your random classmates. He was⊠interesting, to put it politely.
âAre you talking about Lee Minho? The smug bastard who tried to get everyone to call him Lee Know for like 5 months? And Han Jisung, my co-worker kind of, that Iâm pretty sure hates me for some reason?â
âWait, you know them? And why do you think Jisung hates you?â
âYeah, Minho was my weird classmate. Iâm like 90% sure Jisung hates me because he barely looks at me and gives one-word answers to all of my questions. I donât really see him other than during shift switches but still!â
âI think Minho actually might have mentioned you before. And Jisung is just like that around people he doesnât know. Trust me, he actually has the capacity to be the loudest person in the room. By far.â
âHuh, I wonder how many of your friends I actually know.â
"Well, we're hanging out on Thursday. Do you want to come with and meet some more of them?â
You hum thoughtfully, thinking of any possible commitments you had made lately, âI probably can but can I bring Sohee? Just so I know someone there?â
âDo I still not count as someone you know?â He whines and pouts a little for the extra effect.
âNot enough. If you all go off on some inside joke I need someone to be confused with.â
âActually fair, because it might happen. Iâll let you know when and where weâre going later then.â
You pull out your phone and extend it to him, when he looks at it confused you raise an eyebrow, âunless you plan to send it by bird I recommend putting your number in my phone.â
He makes a surprised noise and keeps his eyes away from you and on your phone. It has not spread to his face but under his dark hair his bright red ears peek out just enough for you to see. Even when handing it back he doesnât look at you and you smile at his bashfulness.
âSee ya soon, Bin. I work again tomorrow.â
Directions are not always your strong suit. Youâd like to believe they are and thatâs how you end up like this, no map and unsure of what direction you should even look in.
âYou look lost,â a voice comes from behind you.
You spin around. A tall puppy-like guy is standing behind you, he looks slightly amused and youâre betting itâs at your expense.
âYeah, do you know where M.I.A CafĂ© is?â
âOh,â he nods, âyeah Iâm going there. Letâs go.â
Itâs slightly awkward, walking this distance with someone you donât know. You search your brain with how to start a conversation with someone.
âAre you⊠meeting someone at the cafĂ©?â You ask, slightly awkward.
âYeah, a couple of my friends.â
âHuh, so am I. Well, actually, itâs someone elseâs friends and Iâm just kinda tagging along,â you shrug, realizing how awkward this will probably be.
âGood luck with that,â he says as he holds the door for you.
You enter and scan the tables for Changbinâs face. You wave and slip into the chair opposite him. On the edge of the table thankfully, hopefully Sohee can recognize the back of your head. Someone sits next to you and you get a little shock seeing who it is.
He grins at you, âhey stranger.â
The guy you walked all that way with one of Changbinâs friends!
Changbin looks between you confusedly, âyou know Seungmin?â
âHe helped me get here. I might have gotten a little lost.â
âA little, ok. You had no idea where you were,â Seungmin snarks.
âMaybe so!â
âWell good to know you get along with another one of my friends already,â Changbin interjects.
Someone comes up and sits beside Changbin.
âHey, Iâm Hyunjin,â he greets you simply.
You give him a little wave. You donât like judging people so fast but heâs a little intimidating.
You hear a little scrape of a chair beside and Sohee pops down at the end of the table.
âSohee, you made it!â
âYeah, no thanks to you,â she sticks out her tongue at you.
âIâve seen you somewhere before,â Hyunjin speaks up and you whip your head towards him.
Sohee looks at him and squints for a moment. They start looking at each other for so long that you think theyâre actually just having a staring contest. You think you recognize someone walking outside but when you actually look out the window you have no idea who any of them are. Itâs still a nice day out, maybe you can go out somewhere after this.
âOh! Youâre the guy I thought was going to drink 3 americanos the other day!â
âSohee~â you sing.
âWhat?â She looks at you, annoyed.
âYou forgot an important detail that you told me about him.â
She looks genuinely confused for a moment before catching on and shaking her head, âshut up, nope nope nope.â
âYou think heâs cute!â You cackle.
You, Changbin, and Seungmin make fun of Sohee and Hyunjin for a little while. It backfires when Sohee manages to sneakily turn the attention on you, well you and Changbin. Together, you being together.
âYeah, and you stared at him for so long when he came in!â Sohee says.
âSohee, kindly shut your mouth,â you reply, smiling the most pained and fake smile ever.
âOk, please donât pour your drink on me, Iâm afraid. Also we work together so Iâm coming for you.â
You just roll your eyes at her, you didnât actually scare her and you both know that. She just likes to be some sort of annoying sister to you.
Hyunjin clears his throat and when you look at him his eyes are bright. He smiles sneakily and says, âyou should hear about the time Changbin actually poured his drink on someone.â
âHyunjin that was an accident and you know it!â Changbin exclaims, attempting to shoulder check a giggling Hyunjin.
You breeze into Blueprint Tattoos and Chan looks up in surprise.
âHey there, didnât know you were coming in today.â
You let out a single, unnatural âhaâ, âI didnât know either but uh, here I am.â
âWell, Changbinâs in his usual spot. I donât think he has anything today.â
âThanks,â you nod stiffly.
Looking around at the cork boards you can see some of them definitely done in Changbinâs style and a handful more you suspect would be his. You breathe out heavily and slouch a little before straightening and walking towards where Changbin should be, full of false confidence.
âAre you ok?â Chan asks and when you look over his eyebrows are furrowed and his forehead pinched down a little. The concern from someone you barely know is a little unusual but the warmth you get from it is welcoming.
âYeah, just a little nervous you know?â You force a small laugh but you know itâs not convincing.
âOh!â Chan exclaims, âwell if this is what I think it is then good luck.â
Chanâs face is completely relaxed and you feel a little bit bad for making him worry so much. Youâre not entirely sure what he thinks youâre doing but you smile at his kindness as you open Changbinâs door.
He has headphones in and doesnât hear when you close the door behind you. You stand there for a minute, back against the door, just looking at him. Most people move to what theyâre listening to but the only thing moving is his hand and it glides across the page. You have no idea what heâs doing but you just hope heâll show it to you when heâs done.
You take a big breath in and out before approaching him. Tapping his shoulder gently you hope not to cause him to jerk his arm and ruin a line or anything. He stops completely and pulls his headphones out. He looks a little annoyed but then he looks up to see you and his face eases.
âHi! I didnât know you were coming today. Anything specific on the brain or did you just want to hang out with Best Friend Binnie?â He gives you an exaggerated and comical wink.
âGive me a tattoo?â You say, surprisingly calm for how jittery you actually feel.
âWait, what? Are you sure? Like really sure?â
You roll your eyes like a stereotypical teenager would at their parents, that is to say, so far back it felt like they would disappear into your head, âno, Changbin, Iâm not sure. Iâve really only been thinking about it basically since the first time I walked into this room.â
âThat was only a week ago,â Changbin deadpans.
âYeah, and?â
Changbin shakes his head, âIâm not going to give you a tattoo youâll regret.â
You look around at the drawings. Feeling like that one action gave this decision away as way more spontaneous than it had originally seemed. Yes, you had been thinking about getting one and getting Changbin to do it for you but doing it today specifically was a complete impulse.
âIâm not going to regret it! Bin, please,â you pout at him.
Changbin tilts his head to look at the ceiling as if it will give him some guidance.
âWhat do you want?â
You clap your hands excitedly and then hesitate again.
âWell, I know I want a flower but⊠I want you to choose which one. I want it to be a flower with a good meaning behind it.â
Changbin nods and stands there considering your request. You take the time to look around his office again. Staring at all the intricate drawings on the walls you feel a bit dorky choosing to get a simple flower. Your eyes briefly catch on two stylized drawings of the word SpearB. One of them has a cute little âBinnie~â under it and the other has a messy âChanathanâ in English and Korean.
There are a couple of flowers scattered throughout the room so youâre a bit surprised when you hear Changbin ripping a page out of his sketchbook. His back is to you so you canât see him cutting it down to a size to la and trace on your body. You can hear the gentle snips of scissors as you distract yourself with rows of flowers connected and individual petals with such detail you could believe them being real.
You watch as he gently traces the pattern onto your skin. You donât recognize the flower right away but it looks delicate and beautiful. You think you catch him glancing up at you a few times but youâre pretty sure the clock is behind you and heâs looking at that.
You zone out almost entirely as he prepares. Well, itâs not exactly zoning out. Youâd say itâs appreciation of an attractive man, your friends would say that youâre just checking him out.
Ok, so what if you are? Changbinâs shirt has no sleeves which means his arms are on full display which means that you canât stop looking at the muscles flexing as he moves. Thankfully youâre conscious enough to look away when he turns back around.
The buzz of the gun wakes you up and Changbin is looking at you.
âAll good?â He asks.
âYeah, letâs do this.â
You watch for a moment as he starts going and the ink sinks permanently into your skin. Itâs a strange thing to conceptualize, something being on your body forever. You catch a glimpse of Changbinâs concentrated face and you get completely distracted by him. If this is what he looks like everytime he gives a tattoo then you want to observe, even study, him.
His mouth is set in a firm line and eyebrows pinched slight inwards and downwards. His eyes are wide and focused and if you look closely enough you can see every slight movement of his irises following his hand around.
Neither of you say a word and you donât dare move to try and look at the clock or your phone. Just watching and waiting in silence, but together. A shared silence is different than one had alone.
Silences by yourself can feel wrong sometimes but this kind of silence with Changbin feels so right that you almost never want it to end.
Good things often come quicker than they should and soon the buzzing stops. You can hear phantom buzzing still and suspect you will for quite a while. You lift your arm and look at it, itâs finished now but youâre still not sure what it is and certainly not what it means.
âWhat is it?â You ask.
âAn almond blossom. It, uh, it means promise.â
âPromise, huh?â You grin and look at Changbin's pink-ish face.
You expect him to have some witty comment but instead, he just smiles goofily and breathlessly says, âyeah.â
