→Choi SeungCheol

“Appa, are you hurt?” Siah gets on Seungcheols back as your husband laid on the couch. He just groans in response.

He had gotten drunk the night before and had a horrible hangover happening.

“Don’t worry, I’ll treat you” Siah, the older child says and rushed to her room to bring out her doctors kit.

Cheol manages to open his eyes, but his head still throbbing.

Siah walks into the living room with a toy stethoscope around her little neck and a toy injection in the other hand.

Cheol sees his baby bringing all her doctor toys to him and chuckles. “Are you here to take care of me doctor?”

“I will fix you” she says. “Where does it hurt?”

A smiling cheol points to his forehead. “Here doctor”

She takes the toy injection in the other hand and directly puts it on his forehead. This makes seungcheol laugh. “Thank you doctor, you’re so nice”

→Yoon Jeonghan

“Catch it, catch it” Jeonghan pulls at the rod, with the fish flapping as soon as its out of water.

The fish accidentally slap your 4 year old son in the face. “It's slippery” he says trying his best to catch the fish. Everytime the fish is in his hands, the next second it slips out. You watch on the whole spectacle laughing.

After the boys are done catching 2 fish, your boys rushed to show you.

“Now we eat them” jeonghan says

Horror spread across the 4 year old boys face. He immediately starts whining as jeonghan laughs.

“We can’t eat them, theyre our friends!” The little one yells at his dad.

“Tell him!” He also yells at you to defend him as he cries.

“What do we eat then now? Aren’t you hungry?” Jeonghan asks him touching his sons belly.

“No!” The baby says with every conviction in him.

“What do we do with these fish?”

“Take them back home and raise them”

“They’re already dead”

This earns your husband a playful smack to his arm. “Don’t say that” as both of you try to stifle giggles.

→Hong Joshua

“Happy Birthday Dojoonie” your husband, Joshua, wishes his elder son who turned 6 today.

Little did he know, he had a Surprise waiting for him outside in the yard.

"We have a surprise waiting for you outside" you tell him and his little legs rush to take him to the front yard.

"No way" He screams in excitement.

It was a toy car that he could drive.

"Hey, Hey, mister, safe driving only" you say as he gets on the car.

He drives exactly like Joshua. You giggle at that. "He has the same driving face as you" you say to Joshua looking at your son driving away.

"I don't have a driving face" he defends.

"You do!" and you mimic the face he makes while he concentrates on driving.

"He's learning everything from me" Joshua exclaims.

"Im glad, you're a wonderful man Joshua"

"Thank you for saying that, darling" he says wrapping his hand around your torso while you look at your son not braking in time and crashing.

"And thats a crash" you say and both of you rush to him to do damage control.

→Wen JunHui

"It won't hurt, I promise"

Your son is wailing and hiccuping through his sobs, he is terrified of his tooth falling. It's his first milk tooth and that tooth has been dangling for 2 weeks now.

He has a birthday party to attend and he wants to eat everything and anything but the tooth won't let him. So Jun came up with a solid idea of pulling it out himself. As much as I am against it, you kid really wants it taken out but is also scared of it.

"See, we're going to tie this tooth to this floss and the other end to the door handle okay? then you can push the door shut when you're ready, the tooth will fall out" your husband calmly explains.

The boy looks terrified.

"It won't hurt, promise" he says.

Your son holds your hand tight as Jun ties the floss to the door.

"3" his grip on your hand tightens.

"2" his jaw clenches.

"1"

your son kicks the door and the tooth comes out in one swift motion. Your son is ecstatic as he rushed to your side to hug you.

"I did it mama"

"You did, my sweet boy, now you can eat all the hard candies you want at Dojoon's birthday!" you say and he smiles at you front tooth missing, You giggle at his missing tooth.

"What about daddy, I did all the heavy lifting" Jun sulks.

→Kwon Hoshi

Your son jiho has been climbing everything he can reach, he's at that age where his feet are faster than his body. This time he was climbing the kitchen counter making steps out of the drawers. Its dangerous.

"soonyoung, he's been climbing everything, we need to change in child safety on the drawers, it's all broken now"

"I'll get them on the way back from work tomorrow"

Soonyoung sits in front of Jiho with a tiger soft toy, Jiho's favourite.

Soonyoung pretends to voice the tiger and starts talking to jiho.

"Jiho, its me, your favourite tiger, your dad can't hear us"

This snaps Jiho's attention to the tiger. He smiles at the tiger and says the cutest hi.

"Your dad told me you've been climbing chairs and drawers, you shouldn't do that, it is dangerous"

"dangers?"

"yes, dangerous, you could fall and give yourself a ouchie then the doctor will give you an injection"

"no injection"

"You shouldn't climb"

"I'll go now" soonyoung says to jiho in the tiger voice.

"Tiger told me not to climb" he tells his dad immediately.

"It speaks?"

"Only I can hear him, he's my best friend that's why"

"Is that so?"

"Yes"

→Jeon Wonwoo

"Daddy its torn, its torn" your 4 year old comes to you and your husband in the living room talking about his day.

"What's torn honey?" you ask looking down at her. Your daughter holds up Ms. Kiki.

Your sweet sweet baby girl, Min ju, had this one teddy bear she carried around everywhere. Ms. Kiki. It was her emotional support soft toy. She'd bring it to trips, to restaurants and even to the doctors, where she needed it the most.

"Ms. Kiki" she was bawling her eyes out. Wonwoo takes her in his lap. You inspect the tear, it was just a tear on the stitch, a few hand stitches should do the trick.

"Can I do it after I come back?" you had to head out to a meeting in some time.

she starts to whine a little again.

"Daddy will do it" wonwoo chimes and she becomes happy again.

"Ill fetch you the sewing kit, just stitch it here," you tell him showing him where.

The father daughter duo sit side by side, as Minju waits for her dad to sew it slowly.

he pricks himself with the needle the first try and hisses.

"Does it hurt daddy?" Min ju asks.

"Not it doesn't its a pinch" he says and continues sewing while you change into your work clothes.

"After 5 minutes he was done. "Tada!" wonwoo holds up the bear to minju, she was ecstatic.

You were ready to go and stopped by wonwoo to see what he did, and he did a pretty good job.

"Good job!" you praise him.

"Daddy is the bear doctor"

"Bear doctor sounds like a great title"

→Lee Jihoon

You had come to visit Woozi's studio with your 3 year old Daughter Jia, Jihoon wanted to show her his new studio with a lot of lights, he thought the baby would enjoy it.

The light projecting stars and colourful galaxies, he called it the universe factory. Quite a cute name. He was the hottest looking man when he was in his studio focusing and working. One of the reasons you fell for him.

"So? How do you like it?" he asks.

"It looks beautiful, it's so pretty" looking up in wonder.

Your baby, Jia also is looking up adoring the roof and pointing to the stars she sees.

"Stars!"

"So pretty" your child mumbles.

Your daughter now was in his lap, pushing all buttons possible and some beats and sound start to come out of the speakers. Almost like she was making music herself.

"She seems like a natural" he says to her and takes her off the keys before she deletes important files.

"A few years, she'll come for your job Mr. producer"

→Lee Dokyeom

"It's mommy birthday so we're going to bake a cake, but you have to promise me princess you're not going to eat the cake before that" Dokyeom sternly but the 2 year old babbling baby only looks up to see her boba eyes staring at him.

"You're too cute to scold" he says and starts making the cake.

Midway through the icing, Dokyeom was too focus on making the icing, he didn't realise the other side of the icing on the cake was getting eaten, little by little.

Your daughter's little fingers had swiped away at the icing one by one making a big icing mine in the cake. The back of the cake was eaten and ruined, but Dokyeom could not get angry at her. She looked too cute with icing all over her face.

"Here's a strawberry" Dokyeom tells her and hands her a strawberry to eat while he tries to save the cake.

"Finally done, you think mom would like it?" Dokyeom holds the cake to his toddler. "mmh" she hums to the strawberry she had in hand.

You had just returned from a long day of work, all you wanted was to cuddle your two main babies and go to sleep.

You come back to a dark living room and a startling noise.

"Surprise! Happy Birthday Baby!" Dokyeom says with your precious daughter in his arms and a strawberry cake.

"What's with the cake?" you ask looking up at him, then realising your little princess probably ate while making it.

Her hands held a half eaten strawberry as you take her from your husband and shower her with kisses.

"What about me!" Dokyeom sulks and you shower him with kisses too.

"Best Birthday ever"

→Kim Mingyu

Bora haas been wanting a make up set like you have for ages. Mingyu promised to get her a kids make up set on the way back from work today, and he did.

Bora was so excited she started to jump around the living room.

It was a cute toy, with a mirror and brushes and everything. You just hoped it's goes okay on her skin and doesn't damage it.

"Thank you! Thank you!" her little frame hugs Mingyu.

She opens the kit and gets everything out.

"Appa, do you want to be the first customer of my salon?" she says.

He pretends to be a customer. "Hello, I would like a make over please" he says in a fake customer voice that makes your daughter giggle.

She happily obliges and puts this towel in his collar for his shirt. Quite thoughtful.

Bora roughly brushes over his face with some powder from the kit, being careful with it ends up going into mingyu's mouth and he blows raspberries to get it out.

"What kind of a salon is this?" he says giggling. Bora only laughs.

She finishes her masterpiece with a lipstick on her dad's face. a little over drawn but cute nevertheless.

"Tada!" she says as she holds up the mirror to his face.

"Do you feel beautiful daddy?"

"I feel so beautiful baby" he says and Bora runs to her room to bring one of her play wigs to put on her dad's head.

It was a golden bright wig with pigtails to complete the look.

You sneakily take a picture on your phone as you laugh.

Bora laughs too. "Daddy you look like a clown"

This comment makes you laugh even more coming from your daughter.

"Let's go mommy next!" Mingyu suggests with playful evil eyes and you almost run away before mingyu could catch you.

→Xu Minghao

"Daddy, it's tea time, cmon! cmon!" your younger daughter grabs your husbands hand and drags him to her room.

"Why am I not invited?" you pout.

"it's only for daddy"

She's seen Minghao do his tea ceremony often. He stopped a while before, but once your daughter was born, Minghao and your daughter started play dates where they would pretend to drink tea, you found it cute.

"How is daycare?"

"No one likes to play tea party" she complains as you watch this interaction.

The little girl pours the 'tea' its just water, into the her father's cup and her cup.

"Why?"

"I'm not sure, but I have you to play with me"

"You do, I'll play tea party with you all day" Minghao says picking up the cup and putting it to his lips.

"Appa, stick your little finger out, like this" she says and demonstrates.

"Ah yes, how can I forget" he says and does as told.

Your daughter really had him wrapped around her little finger. It was adorable to watch.

→Boo Seungkwan

"Stand here and shoot" seungkwan tells your 7 yer old son.

You were at the basketball court where seungkwan was teaching your son, Channie.

"Shoot, don't get on your toes" he yells at him from the sideline.

He finally makes a score and you cheer. Seungkwan looks very satisfied with himself.

"Let's do a mother son vs dad" you suggest and run into the court to start a match.

"Oh its on"

You jump on seungkwans back while his guard is down and, it becomes difficult for him to steal the ball from Chan and Chan scores. You put both your hands up in the air in celebration.

"Your dad's not that great at this after all" you say sassily to your husband kissing his cheek from the back.

"we'll see, we'll see, get off me! no cheating this time" he warns with a playful smile.

"We'll try"

This time you decide to take both his hands in yours and literally pull him away from the court while your son attempts to score. He misses twice and Seungkwan pretends to escape to save the ball.

Chan finally scores and seungkwan doesn't let your hand go though.

"We won!" you exclaim in your husbands face.

"Come here sneaky" he says wrapping his hands around your waist, not letting you go.

"You're not going to score this time" he says and throws you over his shoulder and grabs your son by the torso holding him with his arm.

It was all laughs and giggles.

→Choi Vernon

"AAH" you hear a shriek coming from the living room. It was your husband Vernon, running to the bedroom to you.

"There's a bug on the wall, bug on the wall"

You can deal with smaller bugs, so you walk out confidently, assuming it's a smaller bug, but it was indeed a big bug.

Your 4 year old Derek, had come out of his room hearing the shriek.

"It's a bug?" he asks, while you hold a container to catch the bug and Vernon hiding behind you, neither of you taking any action to actually catch the bug.

"Derek will catch it for you" your son says in third person and bravely goes to the bug, climbing the couch to for his little hands to get to it.

"Are you sure he's my son?"

"What do you mean? Of course he's your son!" you exclaim.

You see Derek picking up the bug by its wings and asking you to stretch the container, you outstretch your hand with the container as far as you could. The bug really gave you the ice and made your body shudder.

"Done! Here's your new home bug!" Your 4 year old talks to the bug that's now in the container.

You and Vernon share a look.

"Aw my baby, protects me from bugs" you pat Dereks back.

"That was nothing" he boasts, trying to impress his mom.

Lee Chan

"What do you think?" you husband, Chan, had just shared with you the most evil plan to prank your daughter. He wanted you in on it.

"She's going to cry" you warn him.

"It's a prank, we'll teach her to be a good sport" he justifies.

"You father daughter do what you want" you let it go. You eerily sound like what your mom used to say and that makes you chuckle internally.

"Okay, I'm gonna go hide it all"

The living room was a mess with all of Yu Na toys as she played in the living room.

"Yu Na" her father appears from the bedroom, "I have to tell you something"

Yu Na thinks its batch time and start whining, she hates bath time.

"It's something else" Chan clears and she calms down.

"Appa was hungry, so Appa ate something that was Yu Na's" he starts.

"My chocolate cake?" she asks in her little voice.

"There's chocolate cake in the fridge?" he looks surprised.

"Yeah, Uncle Dokyeom brought it yesterday"

"Ah, did he? I didn't eat that"

"What did you eat?"

"I ate all your halloween candy"

She looked like she was about to cry, her lips even turned downward. but what came out of her mouth was so precious.

"You were hungry?"

"Yes baby, I was"

"It's okay because you were hungry. You are supposed to eat when you're hungry and I love you so it's okay"

Chan and you were stunned to hear that. She hugs Chan and you give him a heartfelt look.

"This prank turned out wholesome" he says to you.

"Daddy didn't eat all your candies, we were just joking" you explain to your child.

"Just joking?"

"Yeah, we can have some after dinner" the little girl leapt in excitement and ran into the kitchen.

"We're raising the sweetest girl"

"All thanks to you, my love" he takes your hand and you smile at him.

rating: sfw cw: kissing ✉︎♡: ask box open, tumblr users + anons

Xavier: -It sort of happens…accidentally? -Xavier has been ignoring your text messages, and you sent him some funny videos that you knew he would love -Since he just lives upstairs, you decide to take it upon yourself to make sure he is doing okay -When you knock on the door, it takes him a while to answer it. When he finally does, his hair and clothes are rumpled and he is rubbing his eyes -“Is everything okay? I guess I fell asleep early.” -His voice is that scratchy sort of sleepy and you feel your cheeks flush at how adorable he is -You: “Everything is fine, you just weren’t texting me back so I got worried.” -He smiles, eyes softening, and then invites you in -You’re sitting on the couch together and while you watch the videos you sent, he is starting to doze off again -You: “Xavier are you still tired?” Xavier: “Mmm, a little. Nap with me?” -When you agree, you both reach for the blanket that fell off the couch, and collide into each other, bumping heads -Giggling, you move to pull away, but Xavier tilts your chin up and kisses you -“I don’t want you to worry about me,” Xavier murmurs in between kisses. “I’ll always be by your side.”

Zayne: -This man has been stressed trying to plan the perfect time to finally kiss you -He’s thought about it since you were children, but never actually worked up the courage to do it until now -First, he plans to do it right when he picks you up to get the nerves out of the way, but when you answer the door you look so cute he feels tongue tied. He tries again at dinner, but a bunch of waiters come out singing ‘happy birthday’ to another table. Then he plans to do it at the coffee shop, but you point out that he has whipped cream on his upper lip, so he chickens out again -He resigns that it won’t happen today, but then you decide to take a different turn on the way home from your date, out across the bridge that overlooks Linkon City -He’s holding your hand as the two of you stare out at the water and twinkling city lights -He thinks: Now, just do it now. Don’t lose your nerve -You: “Zayne…I…” Zayne: “Yes?” -He is completely caught off guard when you stand on your tiptoes to give him a swift peck on the lips -When you pull away, both of you are furiously blushing and you stutter out some sort of apologetic excuse -Zayne takes this moment to cup your face in his hands and kiss you more tenderly, more gently, trying to infuse each moment with how much he has wanted this to happen for so long -You: “I was worried you would take it badly.” Zayne, chuckling softly and brushing your cheek with his thumb: “And I was worried I’d never actually get the chance."

Rafayel: -Rafayel is lamenting his lack of inspiration when you visit one day -Dramatic fishie moping around the house, wondering if he lost his talent, until he gets a lightbulb moment with that familiar mischievous grin -Rafayel: “You could always pose for me, cutie.” You: “Me? Why?” Rafayel: “If you don’t, these artist hands that bring magic and joy to the world will go unused forever.” -Cue eye roll, but you agree -You feel awkward, having never posed for a portrait before -Raf is looking from his canvas, to you, and then frowns. Holding out a thumb and squinting with one eye, he says, “You’re a little lifeless.” -You tell him it’s because you’ve never done anything like this and he laughs, hands in his pockets as he walks over to you -Rafayel: “You just need a little more color in your cheeks.” -He leans forward and silences the question you are about to ask with his lips. You’re stunned for a moment, but then you kiss him back, letting your arms loop around his neck and pull him closer -He pulls away, cheeks equally as flushed as you feel, and then says, “There we go, but I don’t know if my painting could possibly do you justice now.”

Sylus: -On your way to work one morning, you see a flyer about a local Night Market, and you text the details to Sylus -Sylus responds with: “Trying Linkon cuisine with a local? Hmm, alright sweetie. I’ll be back in town tomorrow. Be ready by 6:00.” -The next evening you arrive at the market, but angry gray clouds are starting to appear overhead. You brush it off, ready to enjoy your time with him -You meander all the way down to the end of the stalls (he orders one of everything that you say sounds good), talking about everything and nothing, trying to ignore the way your heart pounds in your chest whenever he catches you staring at him -You: “Want dessert? They have a cotton candy stall here that shapes it like different animals.” Sylus: “Sure, then I’ll have two cute kittens to look at.” -When the kitten shaped cotton candy is ready, Sylus holds it out for you to take a bite together -At this moment, the sky takes the perfectly inopportune time to open up, and it begins to rain -Sylus lifts his jacket to shield you from the rain as you run towards a nearby tree for cover. By the time you get there, the cotton candy has all but completely dissolved  -Disappointed, you look down at the stick Sylus is holding and say, “I’m sorry about the kitten.” -Sylus, drenched from the rain, laughs in a way you’ve never heard before. A jovial sounding chuckle, that is loud and sincere and real -He tilts your chin up to look at him, brushing strands of wet hair out of your face as he leans in and says, "My favorite one is still right here in front of me.” -He brushes his lips against yours, tentative at first until you kiss him back, and then he lifts you off of your feet to kiss you more fully. -As droplets cascade from the sky, you wonder if anything will ever be as romantic as a first kiss in the rain

Caleb: -Let’s be honest, the two of you shared at least one kiss when you were younger -But Caleb wants a redo because no way that time you dared him to kiss you in the attic actually counts -He’s helping you clean out your closet, because you told him that he owes you a favor but also because he wants to spend time with you. He stumbles upon a big box labeled “Memories,” dusty and shoved up on the top shelf -When you come back into the room with lemonade for both of you, you’re mortified as he rifles through the box filled with your most precious memories -You: “What are you doing?” Caleb: “What, are you embarrassed about what I might find?" -He holds up an envelope with your ten year old handwriting scrawled “super secret future plan, DO NOT OPEN!” on the front. -You lunge towards him, needing to get the envelope away from him before he opens it and sees that your super secret future plan was a drawing of a house and two kids with him -In your determination, you haven’t noticed that you’ve fully straddled him until your chin bumps the top of his head  -The fear of him discovering your secret dissipates, and it is replaced with a tension in the air that you can both feel -“You don’t have to hide anything from me,” Caleb says, nuzzling his nose against yours -Caught up in the moment of it all, you lean in and kiss him -Just enough to catch him off guard and just enough to snatch the envelope away -“Ha!” you say triumphantly, but the telltale blush on your cheeks tells Caleb all he needs to know about how you really felt   -Still though…guess he’s going to need another do over

Pool Day with the Kengan boys

Gender neautral

Reader is wearing a swimsuit

A bit suggestive

Please stay hydrated and wear sunscreen, no matter your skin tone!!! Because every one can get sun damage!!!!! Also be careful to not slip on the tiles, and make sure the colour of your swimsuit can be seen underwater, so you can be easily spotted!!!

Imai Cosmo

AAAHHH this boy is basically vibrating in his seat during the car trip. He cant wait to play in the water with you.

Once you guys reach the pool he would rush you to the changing rooms, and will sulk if you tell him to slow down.

After you change into your swimsuit he will get a bit more bashful (cus he checking u out😭). However he soon gets over it and continues being playful.

He definetly says some shit like 'I dont need sunscreen!' 🙄 boy shut up before you turn red.

He WILL splash you with water.

Loves to cuddle you on those big ass floaties.

DEFINITELY HITS YOU IN THE HEAD WITH POOL NOODLES.

The aqua blue of the pool really suits him, tbh imo he would rock the surfer boy aesthetic.

This cutie gets so sad when you guys have to leave 🥺

Overall 8/10 pool day, very fun however you probably cant keep up with his energy, and you have to nag him about pool safety.

Sen Hatsumi

This man is laying his charm on thick as soon a he thinks of the word 'swimsuit'.

He would ask if he can rub sunscreen on you(🙄) don't let his innocent tone fool you. As soon as he gets his hands on you he is going to feel you up.

As for him, he would ask (beg) you to put sunscreen on him. If you do agree to help him, he looks composed on the outside but he will get a bit giddy and shy.

He will laze about on a sunbed or float in the water with you.

He looks SO SEXY with wet hair

If he's feeling playful he might pull you in the water before you're acclimated to the temperature, so you shiver and hold on to him for warmth.

You have to tell him to get his mind out of the gutter when he sees you eating ice cream or ice lollies .

He will constantly be checking you out ngl, and will try to say some shit like 'youre cute with your swimsuit but you'd look even cuter without it'💀💀💀

9/10 pool day, this guy is just so chill that it relaxes you.

Rihito

This guy is throwing compliment after compliment, giggling and blushing at you.

He would either totally forget to apply sunscreen and cry like a baby the next day, while you apply aloe vera or yoghurt on him. Or he wont stop harassing you until you put sunscreen on him (much like a kid on a car trip repeating 'are we there yet??').

Can see him wearing those arm floaties.

Definitely complains about how sticky the sunscreen is.

Would put you on his shoulders while in the pool

He would submerge himself so he can ogle at your body under the water

Dont fall asleep around this man when youre sunbathing because he will squirt (lol) sus shaped sunscreen blobs on you.

Idk why but I can see him getting tan

7.5/10 pool day cus hes too focused on wooing you.

AAAUAUAUAHSVAHAUUAHAUAUAUAUAAUAUUAUAUAUAUAUAUAUAUUAUAUAUAUAUAUAUAUAUAUAUAUAYAUAUAUSHYAUAGSUSJAUAYAUAUAHSUAUAUSGAUAUAHYA THIS FUCKING POST DIDNT SAVE LIKE 4 TIMES PROPERLY AND I HAD TO RE WRITE THIS SHIT LIKE 7 TIMES CUS ONE TIME MY WIFI WENT OUT AND DIDNT SAVE AND THEN I ACCIDENTALLY POSTED IT AND SOMEHOW IT DIDNT POST FULLY AUAGEYAHSGWUWHSGAUAUAUAUAUAUAUAUAJWJWUWJWHBW 👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹👹

by the waters, part 1

pairings: lee know x m!reader

genre: fluff, mermaid au

a/n: hi im back i think... my apologies

stray kids had been waiting forever for their vacation, so they decided to spend all their peaceful time on an island. not many people were touring and the water was still fresher than ever. not to mention, the nature here looked amazing.

the eight of them have already gone to their chosen rooms, beginning to unpack. minho went to the balcony to stare at the scenery, the ocean waves crashing into each other as the water sparkled.

jisung came up to him, "yah, i bet you there's a mermaid out there." he leaned on the glass fence, joining minho.

"mermaids? you're crazy." minho shook his head.

"can't be always wrong." the younger one lightly gasped, "how about you drown, and then a mermaid would come and save you!" he teased.

"you want me to die or something? it's so unlikely they exist, it's just a fairy tale." minho kept denying.

"hmm, okay, believe whatever you want ~" jisung waved him goodbye and went back inside the house.

the older sighed, before heading back in since it was getting late.

it was the morning, and minho went out for a long stroll outside on the island. the breeze was cold but very refreshing. this island was such a good pick for them.

the brunette found two stray cats, which was weird for them to be here. nonetheless, he fed and played with them for almost an hour.

it was a struggle for him to not scoop the kittens up and adopt them, he felt bad he had to leave the two cuties. minho eventually got bored and decided to go fishing, not the best, but he liked to try.

minho went by the waters with a fishing rod, he tied the hook on with the fish bait and threw it into the water.

After a few minutes of waiting, there was a huge tug on the string. he must've caught a big one, he'll definitely tell this to the members.

but as he was pulling it up, streams of crimson blood were found at the surface of the water. did the fish bleed that much?

he was wrong, it wasn't a fish he had caught.

minho's eyes widened as he pulled up a bleeding man, with fishtails for legs.

jisung was right, mermen and mermaids were real.

minho panicked, watching the person hiss at the hook painfully attached to his skin. he couldn't just sit there in shock, he needed to do something.

he quickly unwrapped the scarf that was on his neck, rushing to the merman. minho carefully took the hook out and wrapped the scarf around the boy's bleeding arm.

"i'm sorry, i'm sorry, i'm sorry..." minho kept apologizing for hurting the person, but all the merman did was stare at the human.

finally, he took the time to look at the merman, and boy, he was the most beautiful thing minho's eyes ever laid down on.

"it's okay, you didn't mean it. right?" the merman was unsure whether to trust the human or not.

"never in my life will i hurt anyone intentionally." he finished tying the scarf around the arm securely, "..are you fine with getting medical help?" he looked around, trying to see if he could find anyone.

"no! don't let them discover me!" the merman sounded scared and nervous. minho understood and dropped calling for help.

"how are we gonna patch that up, then?" he questioned, pointing at the deep wound underneath the cloth.

"the water helps me heal, it'll take a while but you don't have to worry." the h/c put a reassuring smile, which the dancer found ethereal.

"ah, alright." minho was still shocked that he had witnessed a real-life merman, he thought it was all a fairy tale. "do you have a name?"

"y/n, what about yours?" y/n's mesmerizing eyes sparkled in minho's view.

"minho." he smiled, wanting this moment to last forever.

"...promise you won't tell anyone about me?" y/n practically begged, making a stern and serious face.

"of course, i wouldn't tell the world."

minho kept his word and never told anyone about the encounter. when they asked about the missing scarf, he made the excuse of accidentally leaving it somewhere.

jisung wasn't that convinced, he couldn't have just left the scarf somewhere.

"i don't believe you, bet you left it in someone's bedroom." jisung smirked suggestively, making minho scrunch in disgust.

"no, i'm telling the truth." he rolled his eyes, returning back to cooking for the members.

"have you seen a mermaid yet?" jisung asked, catching minho off guard as he made a cut in his fingers with the knife.

"ow!" minho hissed. "l-like i said, mermaids don't exist." he said, causing jisung to sigh loudly.

after eating a delicious meal, all eight of them went to their bedrooms for slumber, except for minho.

his mind was stuck on a certain merman from earlier, he still couldn't believe there were actually living mer-creatures, and that he was lucky enough to meet one.

that next day, minho told the members that he'd be going for another walk again. they didn't care much but to wish him safe.

well, his heart had other intentions. he found himself sitting on the tough but comfortable rock, staring off at the far sea, waiting for y/n's arrival.

since it was unplanned, it was very unlikely for him to show up. so why did minho feel the need to come by?

he waited, and waited, to the point where the said 'walk' he told the other members was now considered a lie. minho slightly had his hopes up for the beautiful creature to pop up.

seeing as it has been almost an hour, he was bound to give up. minho stood up from his seat on the rock, but before he could turn away, the water sparkled.

he was there.

" cold shoulder ? " - todoroki x reader

the student commons were filled with soft music and small giggles from you and uraraka, completely side tracked from the homework iida was desperately trying to pull your attention back to. midoriya had given up at this point, just watching the three of you with a small smile.

"i'm just saying, i think a small break to run and get coffee would be productive." you chuckled softly, more amused by iida's arm chopping than anything.

"we took a long break less than an hour ago! it would be more productive to at least work a small while longer!"

you only laughed harder when ochako began to imitate his expression and movements. you stopped, however, smile dropping when you saw a todoroki stepping towards your table.

you closed your book quickly and pushed it to the side, standing up.

"y/n, wait-" he put a hand on your shoulder carefully, pressing his lips together when you shrugged it off.

"yeah, i'm going to go get a coffee. ochako, you wanna come?" you pushed in your chair as she nodded, standing up. "i'll grab you guys something too, just text me whatever you want."

you were already at the door before they could get a word out. deku and iida both jumped when you shut the door firmly. your boyfriend, however, just let out an exasperated sigh.

"um.. hey, todoroki?" midoriya fiddled with his pencil. "what was that about?"

"yes, it seems out of character for her to give you the cold shoulder, even when upset." iida had pushed his books to the side now too, his concern for a friend taking priority.

"she's not giving me the cold shoulder, she's just..." he sighed again as he pulled a chair and took a seat. he pressed his hands together and took a deep breath. "when she gets angry, she avoids me and ignores me so she doesn't say something she doesn't mean. like i did," he rubs his eyes and pulls his hands down his face, groaning in frustration. "i'm such an idiot..."

"what exactly, did you do?" midoriya cocked his head curiously, both boys now looking worried.

"finals are coming up, and i guess i've been letting that, and everything else lately, get to me. last night when i was putting away the dishes, i just kept thinking about it. my provisional license, the exams, my old man... i was just trying to finish quickly so i could get back to studying. y/n had come in to get a glass of water, and i didn't see her, i accidentally ran into her..."

todoroki took a deep breath and closed his eyes. the look on your face, he just couldn't get it out of his head.

"she dropped her cup, it broke, and i got stupid and angry. i got upset with her even though she apologized, even though it was my fault, and that turned into a stupid argument, and i said something i shouldn't have. i heard my father's voice coming out of my mouth. 'you're in the way.' ..." he took another deep breath. "but it wasn't my old man that hurt her. it was me,"

the boys just stared at him. they weren't exactly sure what to do or say.

"she's angry, and she has every right to be. even if she was just giving me the cold shoulder, i would understand. after all, that's what i did to my father when i was upset." he cracked a sad smile. "i guess we're alike in that way... but she handles these things better than i do."

he stood up abruptly and stuffed his hands in his pockets.

"todoroki? are you alright?" iida stood too, followed by midoriya.

"i'll be fine, it's y/n you should worry about... i'm going out. i'll be back soon."

"uh- wait! todoroki! where are you going?" midoriya took a few steps after him, towards the front foyer.

"to fix this." was all he said before closing the door behind him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"hey ochako, can you hand me my phone?" you pointed to it sitting on the night stand that far from where you sat on your bed.

"huh? oh, yeah!" she leaned over and grabbed it, it was only a few inches to her right.

"thanks.." you took it and skipped the song, biting the inside of your cheek. it was the song you had showed shoto when you were first getting to know him.

while the two of you had been out, you explained why you were ignoring your boyfriend. she was upset on your behalf, even though you told her not to be. you understood why he was so tense, but that didn't excuse what he did. it wasn't worth someone else getting upset over, though. this was your problem. she, however, insisted that this wasn't something you could push her away from and demanded that you let her spend the rest of the evening taking care of you and your fragile emotions. you bought candy and picked movies to watch, anything to keep your mind off of him until you and todoroki were in a better state to talk about it.

after you and uraraka had gotten home from your "coffee break", you were surprised to find your study buddies on the couch, picking out a movie. they didn't explain why, but apparently they had decided you had all done enough work for one day. you ended up watching whatever together until you and ochako retired to your room and blew off dinner. (normally iida would never condone such actions, but after hearing from todoroki what had happened, he decided to just bring the two of you a couple plates from downstairs.)

so here you were, just listening to music and talking about whatever, letting the conversation go wherever it did. until, however, a knock pulled your attention to your door. you looked over at uraraka before getting up to open it.

there was nobody on the other side, nobody down the hall either way, and you almost closed it before you saw something on the ground. you knit your brows together and couched down. a few packages of your favorite snacks, some of them from shops that were more than 30 minutes away. there was a bottle of your favorite beverage with a small pink sticky note, a heart drawn onto it carefully.

most eye-catching, though, was the jar full of your favorite flowers. it was a beautiful bouquet, small enough to fit on your desk but in no way minimal or boring, with a bow of your favorite color tied around it.

"y/n? what is it?" uraraka asked from your bed, leaning over to try and see.

"it's..." your eyes drifted down to one of the snack packages, with another sticky note. this one, however, was covered in tidy, familiar handwriting.

you pulled it off the bag and read it a few times over.

"i know you need time. take as much as you need. you have every right to be upset with me. what i said was wrong. all of it. i'm sorry. you deserve a better apology than this, too. just please come and find me when you're ready to talk. any time, wake me up if you need. i love you. -shoto"

you smiled softly, shaking your head. "it's a gesture, i guess..."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

todoroki was in his room absolutely losing his mind. he couldn't stop thinking about you. he was hunched over his desk, trying to read the same paragraph for the 4th time over, but it was useless. yesterday, his studies were the most important thing in the world. now, they didn't matter at all. nothing mattered except you. how he'd upset you and how he just wanted to fix it. now you were the most important thing in the world. and that's how it should have been the whole time. you should have been his priority.

a small knock snapped him out of his thoughts. he checked the clock, it was almost midnight. his heart leapt into his throat, adrenaline shooting through him as he prayed it was you on the other side. he was at the door in seconds, but hesitated before opening. he took a deep breath and pulled on the handle.

and there you stood. hands together, tugging on the cuffs of your sweater. you looked so beautiful, he just wanted to throw his arms around you, hold you, kiss you. but he knew he had to earn that again.

"hey..." he mentally kicked himself as soon as the words left his mouth.

"hey?" that's all you have to say? really??

"you... gonna let me in?" you motioned behind him.

"oh-" he stepped out of the way quickly, wishing he could slap himself to get his head on right.

you sat down on his floor calmly, crossing your legs and looking at him with an expectant look. he took his seat across from you and took a deep breath, trying to find the right place to start. he had spent every hour since he snapped at you trying to think of what to say, and suddenly now, he was drawing a blank. your piercing gaze wasn't exactly helping either, but he figured he kind of deserved that.

he took a deep breath and met your eyes. "i'm sorry. for what i said. really, really, sorry. it was stupid. i've been letting everything get the best of me lately, with my father and exams, and my license, which isn't an excuse. i just thought you should know why," he swallowed before continuing. "it was just a stupid cup, and even that was my fault-"

you huffed a laugh, making him stop and smile softly.

"i shouldn't have lost my temper with you. you don't deserve to be a punching bag for my frustrations. and you know that, but i need you to know that i do too. and i need you to know, you're never in the way. ever. i let other things get in the way of how much i care about you. school and stuff is important, but you take priority every time, and i need to start acting like it. so, i'm sorry. do you think you could forgive me?"

he held his breath, terrified of your answer. you stared at him for a long moment.

all of todoroki's fears melted the second you broke into a smile, throwing yourself into his arms. you wrapped your legs around his waist and buried your head in his neck.

you laughed and ran your fingers up and down his spine slowly. "you're forgiven... all you had to do was ask."

he let out a heavy sigh of relief. he pressed his nose into your hair, smelling your shampoo, just enjoying being close to you. he smiled to himself and kissed your head, making you chuckle.

"just..." you pulled away, keeping your arms around his neck, just far enough to look him in the eyes. "talk to me, next time. when you start to get overwhelmed. let me help you. you know that you don't have to deal with things alone anymore."

he sighed and looked to the floor. "i know, i guess old habits die hard... i'm sorry-"

you held his face gently and pressed your lips to his. he hummed softly, putting his hand at the base of your neck.

"you've said enough sorry's for one night," you pulled away with a smile. "don't sweat it, just make sure you talk to me."

a faint smile decorated his lips as he pulled you close to him, nestling under your jaw. he took a moment just breath you in. he sighed contently.

"i don't deserve you..."

you chuckled, tangling your fingers in his hair.

"i know.. <3"

WOW. WOOOOW.

Any/all of these, if you’d like!

Thanks anon!! This has been really motivating me to get these written 😂 here they are!

🚑 EMT eddie 🚑

The next shift, Eddie did everything in his power to stay out of the ER.

“I’ll drive —“ Eddie called, halfway in the front seat. Jeff grabbed the back of his shirt, pulling him out.

“No chance in hell,” Jeff said. “I want to get there in one piece. Bucket seat, Munson.”

When it was time to take their first patient, a restaurant patron who decided to try the scallops while having a shellfish allergy, Eddie tried to handle the paperwork instead of taking the patient in.

“No, I can’t read your handwriting,” Anna said, pulling the clipboard away from him. “Besides, you can see your nurse while you’re in there.”

Eddie fought back the look on his face as he ushered the gurney off the rig and into the ER.

Hot Nurse instantly lit up when he saw him. He approached, bringing a hospital-issued gurney for the transfer. “What do you got for me, Paramedic?”

“42, male, anaphylactic reaction to shellfish,” Eddie said as if he was reading it off the chart. “Issued epinephrine on site. Vitals are stable, but still struggling to breath.”

Hot Nurse nodded, helping the man transfer from one gurney to the next. “Thanks —“

Eddie was already halfway out of the ER and back into the rig.

“What’s up with you?” Jeff asked, brow furrowed.

“Nothing’s up with me,” Eddie said. “C’mon, let’s go.”

“You normally spend as much time as you can with your dream boyfriend,” Anna said. She lifted her clipboard, showing her paperwork. “I could usually get this done before you’re back.”

“It’s called being professional,” Eddie said, leaning back into his seat. “You should try it for once.”

Jeff snorted. “I didn’t think you knew the definition of professional, but alright.”

With each trip to the ER, Eddie tried his best to stay out. But with every protest, the further he was pushed in.

“57 male, smoke inhalation, minor second degree burns,” Eddie said, bringing in the gurney.

“Hey —“ Hot Nurse said, leaning in as he went to transfer the patient to the hospital gurney. “Can we talk?”

“Sorry,” Eddie said, another call, said throwing his thumb back towards the ambulance, walking backwards. “Another call.”

The next time, it wasn’t so easy to avoid from Hot Nurse.

“78 female, fell outside her house, possible broken hip,” Eddie said.

Another nurse has stepped forward, taking his patient and transferring to the hospital gurney.

“Eddie!” Hot Nurse called from the reception desk, taking two steps at a time to close the gap between the two. Eddie ignored him, stepping past the sliding doors of the ER. He was putting the gurney into the rig, when he felt a hand on his arm.

He turned to look at Hot ER Nurse, half out of breath as he tried to chase him out of the ER.

“I was calling your name,” Hot Nurse said.

“Oh,” Eddie said dumbly, like he didn’t know that. “Sorry.”

🍼another accidental baby fic 🍼

Eddie looked at himself in the mirror with a frown. He could see the bruises down his ribcage from where his dad kicked him. Where his dad’s boots dug into his skin. He carefully ran his fingertips over the bruises, wincing to the touch. The bruising ran deep, maybe to the bone.

He leaned over the sink, closer to the mirror. There was bruising by his nose, but he may have managed to avoid a broken nose. Some intense welts and marks were red, high on his cheekbone. A few closed gashes along his hairline. Ricky did him good.

His dad.

Eddie hated how much he looked like his dad. The same hair, the same eyes. Eddie makes sure to shave his stubble before it gets too long, never wanting to be mistaken for Ricky. That didn’t stop his teachers, who had Ricky in their class years ago, or even shared a class with him. The Munson named travel like a ghost, haunting Eddie the moment he was born.

Always that Munson Boy.

Never Wayne’s kid.

Never just Eddie.

Eddie stepped into the shower, letting the hot water run down his scalp and over his shoulders.

He wished the hot water was as healing as Steve tried to sell it. That the shower could take away the pain in his bones or fix his aching heart.

His shower wasn’t long, enough to get the dried blood off his skin and enough soap that he smelled clean. He went through the motions of the shower, drying off and putting a pair of sweatpants on before entering the living room again. It felt wrong being away from the baby too long. Not until he knew the baby was safe and theirs.

Maybe it would be better, if the baby was stolen. Then he would know that there was a loving family waiting for it, desperate for their baby to return home.

That Ricky didn’t abandon another kid. That Ricky didn’t kick Eddie out of the home, and his life went on.

Fuck Ricky Munson.

“He looks like you,” Steve said.

Eddie jerked his head up. Eddie felt his body run cold. Eddie afraid he knew the answer to the question he didn’t want to say out loud. “Who does?”

“Baby,” Steve said, brushing the baby’s hair back with his finger tips. He looked up at Eddie tilting his head, beckoning Eddie to come and sit by him. Eddie followed, sitting on the couch beside him. Steve changed the baby out of its simple white onesie, now wearing the yellow duck outfit, almost too big for the little legs. “He looks like you.”

“He?” Eddie asked. “It’s a boy?”

Steve nodded. “He’s got your hair. Dark and curls coming in. You — uh — can’t tell with his eyes right now, but they really do look like yours.”

“Like mine?” Eddie laughed.

“Big doe eyes,” Steve said. “Look dark, but sometimes that changes.”

“You know a lot about babies?” Eddie teased. Steve shrugged.

“I’m the babysitter,” Steve said. “I gotta know something.”

🔞untitled 🔞

Everyone could’ve called Eddie and Steve getting together from a mile away.

There was hardly a moment where they weren’t rough housing even when they were just friends.

Eddie walking behind Steve while he talked to Robin, jabbing his fingers into his ribcage.

Steve grabbing Eddie by his shoulders, catching him in a headlock and messing up his curls.

Eddie refusing to hand Steve the television remote, and Steve nearly diving over Eddie, bodies pressed together as they start to wrestle. Eddie desperate to keep the remote out of Steve’s reach.

Steve who took any opportunity to pick Eddie up by his waist and bringing him down into the closest piece of furniture.

And any time they were in the pool? Good luck getting their attention off of each other and not dunking one another under water.

It should have been obvious.

Robin wondered how they even though they were both straight when they were practically dry humping any chance they could get.

Steve even got Eddie to play a few games of basketball, Eddie practically grinding on him as he tried to box Steve out and steal the ball.

So the fact that once they got together, they’re practically fucking all the time?

Surprises no one at all.

Nobody enters Steve’s house or the trailer without knocking. Never again.

But Wayne has told them to keep it out of shared living areas. He didn’t want the kitchen defiled and Lord knows that card table they use for dinner ain’t gonna hold up to either boys’ weight.

But sometimes, they get a little over excited.

It’s been nearly 24 hours since they last seen each other. Steve took a double shift at family video and Eddie’s been swamped at the mechanics. By the time Steve crossed the threshold of the trailer, Eddie’s lips were already on his and Steve’s hands were underneath Eddie’s shirt, guiding him back to the couch.

The Siren, the Cook, and the Sister (7)

Sanji x PirateHunter!FemReader (Masterlist) Chapter 7: Love and Envy (Previous) (Next) Summary: Wanting to move forward, you try to make peace with Sanji. Warning: None

"Dinner's ready!" Sanji called out from the kitchen door.

Despite such an eventful day, the Strawhats seemed unfazed by what had occurred. As they went on with their tasks, you sat under the main mast and just watched them. You found that the crew's dynamic was unlike any other you've had seen. It was endearing how they interacted like a family with no strict hierarchy. That must be nice... a big family.

A hoof gripped your hand, interrupting your thoughts. "Hurry! Before Luffy eats everything!" Chopper cried. He pulled you upstairs into the kitchen. He rushed in, leaving you at the doorway.

In front of you sat the entire crew, conversing, laughing, just existing among one another. You felt very out of place. However, before you had a chance to self-wallow, the friendly cyborg invited you over.

"Don't just stand there! Take a seat," he patted right next to him. I absolutely love this man. You took him up on his offer and sat between him and Robin who nudged you, humming.

"And dinner is served," announced Sanji as he set the last plate on the table. Your mouth watered by what laid in front of you. Hands immediately lunged towards the center as everyone tried to fill their plate. You stayed still, taking in the sight before you.

"Yo, aren't you going to eat?" asked Zoro. Everyone, but Luffy, looked at you. Even Sanji was surprised to see that you had made no effort to eat. Despite his distaste towards you, you still had to eat. Everyone has to eat.

You paused, unsure on how to respond. Thankfully, Robin came to your rescue. She shared your hesitancy in taking off your mask in front of everyone.

"Oh, don't fret. Not everyone is blessed with such clear skin as mine... wait I don't have any skin" assumed Brook with a mouthful of food. You couldn't help but laugh at his assumption.

You shook your head and then explained your mask and the fallacies of your devil fruit. "The Marines made me this mask to help me communicate since I don't have the best control of the volume of my voice. If I'm not careful, I can accidentally blow out someone's ear drums... or worse That's why I try not to eat with others so I'm not tempted to talk. But it's okay. I'll just eat later."

"What about when you're with your sister then?" asked Jimbei.

"She eats my cooking while I recount my adventures out on the sea. I'll eat once she goes to sleep," you shared, "it's better that way though because when we're together, we are talking up a storm. You really wouldn't want to be locked in a room with us, we'll never shut up." You couldn't help but smile under your mask as you thought about your sister.

Despite your robotic voice, Sanji could hear the clear adoration in your voice when you spoke about your sister. It stirred something in his chest. He always felt a little envious to see people get along with their siblings and here you were. He wondered if that could have been him and his siblings in another life.

"You should cook with Sanji!" mentioned Luffy. Sanji immediately choked on his food as his captain kept eating like he hadn't said something outrageous.

"Ummm... I'll think about it," you quickly replied. Still affected by his outburst from earlier, you didn't want to further get on the cook's bad side. You had to sail with him for a week so the least you can do it keep the peace.

As dinner continued, you couldn't help but feel excited for these next few days.

-- -- --

Three days have passed and you couldn't be happier. You quickly connected with Robin and Nami whose room you stayed in at night. It was nice being among other women.

And when you were not with them, the boys of the ship made sure to drag you into their own interests whether that was games, music, steering, tinkering, or training, you did it all.

After being alone for so long, it felt nice to be surrounded by so many characters and personalities.

However, there seemed to be only one thorn on this rose, and that was Sanji. Despite constantly cycling between one crew member to another, the cook never looked your way.

But, while he may have ignored you, you didn't ignore him.

When you first met the cook, you thought he was a machista cruel brute. But you came to realize that he was just a passionate, loyal caretaker. You noticed how he took care of each of his crew mates in his own way. Whether it was by reminding them to take a break or fueling them with a quick snack, the cook was always keeping an eye on his crew.

It was obvious that all he wanted to do was protect them from any danger, which understandably, included you. You gave him no reason to like you in the beginning and your subsequent actions only made things worse.

Now wanting to make peace, you made your way to the cook's domain, seeing if he wanted any help in preparing dinner.

As you walked in the kitchen, you found Sanji deep in the pantry, grabbing ingredients. Hearing the door open, he turned around and gasped as he saw a dark figure by the entrance.

"Sorry, sorry, just me," you excused yourself. Maybe I should borrow some clothes from the girls or something... this cloak keeps scaring people.

Standing up straight, he asked if you needed something. The cook felt awkward being alone with you. He noticed how easily you got along with the crew. Despite him wanting to apologize for his outburst, it just felt wrong to bring it up as you proved to be nothing but a good person. Bringing it up would just be a reminder of his unfounded distaste towards you.

"Not really...umm... just wondering if you'd like some help in cooking dinner tonight?"

Sanji couldn't believe it. Despite everything, you wanted to help him. Realizing this was his chance, he accepted your offer. Something now you weren't expecting.

After grabbing the necessary ingredients, Sanji and you got to work. He asked you to dice up the vegetables while he prepped the meat.

As you cut, the cook couldn't help but notice how sloppy your technique was. However, despite it being void of any professional training, it looked practiced, almost like you've done this for years. He wondered if your mother taught you that. And without even realizing it, the cook accidentally said some of his thoughts out loud.

Your mask let out a deep laugh as you heard his observations. "I know it's not the prettiest but it's gotten the job done. If you wanted to see real beauty in the kitchen, you should have seen my mom. She was a natural."

Seeing an opening, Sanji asked, "did she teach you how to cook?"

"Ha... no. I just watched her from afar as I wasn't allowed in her kitchen," you giggled, "she said just to watch her for now and once I got my own kitchen, she would teach me, but...," you paused. Sanji noticed how your shoulders sagged. "...she never got a chance too." Silence filled the kitchen.

I just had to ask a stupid question, thought Sanji as he thought he ruined the mood. But to his surprise, you started up again.

"So since then," you continued while chopping, "I've been trying to remember her moves and recipes. I haven't gotten there yet, but it's kept my sister fed so I can't complain too much, right?" It's been awhile since you thought about your mother. You tried not to bring her up to your sister as it pained her that she didn't have much of a memory of her. It was nice talking about your mother again, even if just to a stranger.

"I get that," began the cook. And to your surprise, Sanji shared his cooking journey. How his late mother inspired him to cook and how his 'dad' Chef Zeff taught him everything he knew. As you listened to his story, your chopping got slower and slower until it stopped completely.

Worried that he messed again, Sanji asked if he you were okay. You assured him everything was fine.

"It's just... a touching story," you said. He just hummed in agreement.

Letting curiosity get the best of you, you asked him where his dad was today.

"The old man is probably yelling up a storm in the East Blue." He laughed as he recalled the fiery personality that was Chef Zeff. So caught up on his own thoughts, Sanji asked, "And how about your dad?" He lightly gasped as soon as he finished asking.

"No, it's okay. Don't worry," you chuckled. You found it endearing how the cook was trying not to offend you. "My island was destroyed by some brutes when I was a kid. My sister and I managed to escape but my parents weren't so lucky," you said as you finished cutting up the last vegetables.

"I'm sorry for your loss."

"It's okay... it's not like you did it."

A comfortable silence fell between the two of you as you both continued cooking. With the help of an extra pair of hands, dinner was done in no time.

As you set up the table, Sanji spoke up, “thank you for your help today. Honestly you didn’t have any reason to as I haven’t been the kindest to you. And for that I'm sorry." Wanting to makes things right, he decided to tell the you the one thing that couldn't be denied. "For what it’s worth, your sister is really lucky to have a brother like you.”

After days of tension, it seemed like you and the cook finally found peace with one another. Maybe this could be the start of a nice friendsh-- WAIT did he just say brother?

Take Care, Caretaker (The Haunted Mansion Ride Fic) Part 1

(Gen. Family-focused. Mix of comedy, drama, tragedy, and some romance. Main characters: The Caretaker, the Hitchhiking Ghosts, the Hatbox Ghost, and the Brides)

(Fair warning, I started writing this in 2019, the last time I was obsessed with The Haunted Mansion. I have no idea how long this current obsession will last, but I figure it's better to post a fic unfinished and come back to it later than to never post at all.)

Horace sat quietly next to his oldest brother on the church pew, trying hard not to fidget. His legs were too short to reach the floor, and he had accidentally kicked Hatty's cane a few minutes ago, earning his oldest brother's disapproving gaze. Right now Hatty's eyes were on the middle child, Ezra, whose arms were crossed beneath a frowning face, blinking away the sleep as the pastor droned on. Hatty elbowed his younger brother none too gently when Ezra didn't even try to stifle his yawn.

When the service finally ended, Hatty slowly pulled himself up with his cane, placing the source of his nickname back on his head, while Ezra grabbed Horace's hand and charged through the chattering adults. "C'mon, let's go play!"

"In the graveyard?" Horace's voice was small as Ezra pulled him away from Hatty's protests and outside of the building.

"Of course the graveyard! Where else?" Ezra rolled his eyes. Other children were already chasing each other around the graves. One of the boys ran up to them.

"Hey Ezra, let's go to the old Gracey place!" The kid pointed to the large stately mansion bordering the church's graveyard. "Milly's too scared to look in the windows."

"I am not!" A girl protested, stomping her little foot as she stood beside a tomb. "I just want someone to come with me."

Ezra dropped Horace's hand and stood between the two children. "We should all go together, and look in the windows at the same time," he said with a grin. "That way it's fair and nobody should be scared."

The other kids agreed with a mixture of nervousness and excitement. Horace looked back to the adults talking near the church. Only one young man, barely twenty, stood among them with a cane. Hatty had to look up as he conversed with the pastor. His face was suitably dignified and composed, but his hand shook slightly as he leaned on the gnarled rod. None of the adults were paying attention to the children. Horace slowly followed the other kids as they crept to the end of the graveyard where the mansion stood.

Horace lagged further behind as the sleek white walls of the mansion loomed closer. He craned his neck to look at each of the dark windows, imagining someone behind them, watching him back. He returned to reality only when Ezra called his name.

"Horace! We'll leave you behind if you don't keep up!" Ezra frowned as he yelled.

"Let's go back, Ezra." Horace's eyes watered and his voice shook. "Please."

"Come on Horace; we're all doing it." One of the children said. "Don't be a chicken!"

"Hang on; I'll get him." Ezra ran back to his brother and sighed when he saw his tears. "Honestly, you miss out on all the fun." Ezra clapped Horace's shoulder and pointed back toward the cemetery. "If you don't live a little, you might as well be dead!"

. . . . .

The mansion was not the impressive-looking palace of luxury Horace remembered from his youth. Vines climbed the once-white walls and columns, and Horace could see the large amounts of undergrowth surrounding the building's perimeter as he drove closer.

Horace parked the Model T right in front of the large wrought iron gates of the graveyard near the mansion. There was no one to let him in, but there was also no lock on the gates, so Horace grabbed the flowers from the passenger seat and pushed the gates open.

The church had burned down years ago in an incident with the new electrical wiring placed in the building. But the graveyard was still there, and much larger than it had been in Horace's childhood. The number of graves may have indicated that many people thought it would be an ideal resting place; peaceful, quiet, and deep in the woods, but the haphazardly placed stones and partially filled plots betrayed less noble intentions. Since no one in town claimed to own the property, people could bury loved ones there without spending much money. And since the mansion was a ways out of town, many families chose its graveyard to bury those they felt were better off forgotten.

Dry leaves cracked beneath Horace's feet. He pulled his scarf and coat closer as a cool afternoon breeze passed him. The cemetery was just as unkempt as the mansion. Graves were covered with brush and vines, fallen tree branches littered the area, and tombs showed their age with cracks and, disturbingly, holes. Horace stepped up his pace as he searched the names of the strangers laying beneath him, not stopping until he found the one familiar name on a small gravestone. EZRA DOBBINS was carved crudely into the marker with no other epitaph, not even a date of birth or death. The writing was already fading, even though Ezra's passing wasn't that long ago. Horace wondered how much weathering the stone could take before he had to carve the words again.

Horace bent down and picked up the remains of the flowers he brought the last time he was there, and replaced them with a humble arrangement wrapped with string. A rather large tree branch had fallen behind Ezra's grave, so he removed that, chucking it into the woods. He pulled the weeds and, when he had nothing else he could clean, stood at the grave for a while, just looking at it.

His brother had always been a chatterbox when he was alive, telling stories he had heard from far-off places or of the latest gossip in town. Hatty would pretend not to be interested, sternly responding that Ezra needed to get his head out of the clouds and do something useful with his life. But Ezra would laugh and continue on until Hatty wound up invested in the stories, asking follow-up questions and interjecting with mild arguments as he sat by the fireplace with his sewing. Horace would be perfectly comfortable just listening to his brothers' banter as he swept the floors of their late parents' house or fixed the three of them tea. But now Horace was alone. There was no tea, no banter, no brothers.

The grave did not speak and Horace couldn't think of anything to say back. He finally gave a quiet, "Goodbye, Ezra," and walked away.

Though the sun had yet to sink, the air still chilled around him. Horace held onto his hat to prevent a breeze from blowing it away. As he hurriedly walked past the mansion, he noticed he was not the only person there. A woman in a striped green and black dress stood on the steps of the mansion. Dark coiled hair framed her face underneath a maid's bonnet. She furrowed her brows and crossed her arms when he walked by. Horace was taken aback but didn't want to seem ungentlemanly.

"Good evening, miss." He tipped his hat. "Nice day for a walk in the cemetery."

"Oh!" She blinked at him, then forced a smile. "Yes sir, I hope you had a pleasant visit." Her smile fell to a grimace as she held her gaze in his direction. Horace shivered and turned to leave. "Have a good night, miss."

"Wait," the maid said with a sigh. "I have to ask. I noticed you cleaning a bit of the graveyard. Would you be interested in being the groundskeeper for this place?" She gestured at the mansion behind her. "It would take a lot of work, but the Gracey family pays well, believe me."

Horace now looked past her at the once pristine mansion. In all his years of coming to church here, Horace had never seen, nor met any member of the Gracey family. He wondered how the maid became employed here. The whole place gave him an odd feeling.

"I'll consider it, miss," he said with the tone of someone who's already made up his mind. "Thank you for the offer."

The maid just stared at him, and Horace felt a chill as she didn't turn away. She laughed suddenly, shaking her head, smiling as she walked back into the mansion. "Get out of here, then. I hope you come back soon." The door closed behind her.

Bewildered, Horace started the car's engine and drove down the dirt road. He relaxed as he saw the mansion become smaller in the rearview mirror. "She was certainly very strange."

"You think she's strange?" A voice cackled behind him. "Go and meet the folks inside the mansion."

Horace looked straight at the rearview mirror and into Ezra's eyes. He braked the car hard, nearly crashing it, and turned immediately to the backseat.

No one was there.

Horace breathed quickly, looking everywhere. Had he imagined Ezra's voice? He hadn't heard it in so long. He looked back at the mirror but saw only his own eyes. Horace shivered, took deep breaths to calm himself down, and started up the car again. As he drove, he recalled the face in the mirror. The skin was pulled too far back around his smile, the eyes were sunken into his skull, and the nose had completely rotted off his face. But those were Ezra's eyes.

Horace tried to get the visage out of his mind as he pulled up to his neighbor's house. Ezra had always been so full of life, he didn't want to imagine his brother… like that. Horace shivered as he thanked the man profusely for letting him borrow the motorcar, then hurriedly entered his small shack across the street. He tried to quickly close the door before he could let the cool air in, but it was too late for that.

. . . . .

Something had awakened him. The ghost rose from his grave and spotted the black Model T heading for the gates of the graveyard. It didn't matter that Horace couldn't afford new shoes for transportation, much less a newfangled motorcar; Ezra knew his brother had come to visit him.

Phineas Queeg had been peacefully resting until his friend's excited voice cut through all 6 feet of earth. "Phineas, wake up!" Ezra, ever the patient one, reached through the ground and pulled the now disturbed spirit out. Phineas groaned and sputtered, adjusting his cloak and hat before grabbing the carpet bag that materialized at his side. Ezra made a show of brushing off the dirt from Phineas's cloak before pulling him along. "Come with me; let's go!"

"Where are we going?" Phineas asked, looking around. "It's too light out to try and hitch a ride; no one would see us!"

"Ah, but he doesn't have to see us!" Ezra pointed to the man emerging from the car at the gate. Phineas could see the man was shabbily dressed with a cap and scarf, but couldn't make out details from that distance. Ezra hurried to an unmarked grave where prisoners were buried.

"Hey, Gus!" He bent down and shouted at the ground, then jumped in surprise when something tugged on his coattail. Behind him was a small man with a large beard, his hand carrying the iron ball chained to his foot. Gus covered his mouth in glee at scaring his friend, but Ezra didn't seem to mind this time.

"Over here, Gus! I have someone I want you to meet!" Ezra bounded away like a puppy chasing a new toy. Gus shrugged his shoulders and joined Phineas, who still looked groggy. The two of them followed Ezra to the cemetery's gates, where the living man had just entered, carrying a scraggly bundle of flowers.

"Are those for me? You shouldn't have!" Ezra ran up to hug the man, only to pass through him. The man barely acknowledged it, save for shivering and adjusting his scarf. Phineas and Gus looked at each other but did not comment.

"This here's my baby brother, Horace," said Ezra, quickly turning around to walk beside the living man and attempting to pat him on the back. "Phineas, you remember him, don't cha?"

"We've met?" Phineas studied the man. Phineas became good friends with Ezra towards the end of his life, but he didn't remember ever meeting Ezra's family. Horace did look familiar, though.

"Yeah, you did! It was just the week before I died." Phineas struggled to remember meeting Ezra's brother. The time surrounding Ezra's death had been muddled by drink. As Phineas's memories dangled out of his grasp, Horace reached Ezra's grave and started replacing the old flowers with new ones. Ezra watched him, oddly silent, his thoughtful expression mimicking his brother's. Phineas decided he would ask questions later.

Horace then walked over to a fallen branch behind the stone and started dragging it away. "This place is a mess," Horace grumbled.

"Hey, sorry I didn't clean up before you came." Ezra walked after him, his jovial demeanor returning. "You know you shouldn't expect someone's home to be all prim and proper if you come over without calling first!"

Gus tugged on Phineas's cloak and pointed to the tall grass and debris on the other graves. "You're right, Gus." Phineas bent down to pick up a stick, but his hand went right through it. "It's not like we could clean up, even if we tried."

"Well, not with that attitude," Ezra rubbed his chin in thought. "I'm sure if we wait until midnight, all grab it together, and really believe in ourselves, we can definitely move that stick."

"What exciting evening plans we have," Phineas sighed.

Horace chucked the branch into the woods, then walked back to Ezra's grave, slouching and solemn. The ghosts gathered around him. Ezra sighed at his gloomy brother.

"Sorry he's not much entertainment. Never was, really. Guess there can only be so much cha-rizz-ma in one family." Ezra threw his bony arm over and partially through Horace's shoulders. "Still, he is my little brother." The ghost grinned suddenly.  "And what kind of friendly big brother would I be if I didn't look after 'im every once and a while? So, what do you guys say - wanna tag along?"

Phineas smiled. "We haven't gotten away from this place in so long; I'm with you." Gus nodded vigorously and pumped a fist in the air.

Ezra grinned at his brother. "What about you, bro? Mind the company?"

"Goodbye, Ezra," Horace said to the grave, then walked away. Gus slapped his knees as Phineas guffawed and held his stomach.

"Hey! You can't just reject me like that!" Ezra feigned distress and placed a hand over his chest he ran to catch up with Horace. "I'm hurt! How could my own brother be so cruel?" Ezra tried to knock off Horace's hat but only succeeded in messing his hair a bit.

Phineas subsided his laughter when he saw the maid frowning at him from the mansion's steps. She was known as Sara Everson, the only living person to set foot in the mansion for quite some time. She did not look amused.

Phineas tapped Ezra on the shoulder to get his attention, and both of them doffed their hats to her. "Lovely to see you, miss!" Ezra said as he bowed. Gus, with his tattered robe, curtseyed.

"This here's my dear brother," Ezra continued. "We're going to travel with him for a while. Surely there's nothing wrong with a little family visit?"

Sara furrowed her eyes at him, and that's when Horace decided to greet her, tipping his hat just as Ezra had. "Good evening, Miss. Nice day for a walk in the cemetery."

"Oh!" She said in surprise, addressing Horace. "Yes sir, I hope you had a pleasant visit."

"Thank you so much; we sure did!" Ezra winked at her.

"We won't be gone long, Miss," Phineas added. "You know us, always traveling, always coming back."

"Ha, ha! If another tree falls on the road, we might not make it back!" Ezra pointed to the debris around the mansion and laughed again.

The maid sighed. "Wait," she said. Horace and the ghosts looked up at her.

"I have to ask. I noticed you cleaning a bit of the graveyard. Would you be interested in being the groundskeeper for this place? It would take a lot of work, but the Gracey family pays well, believe me."

Phineas raised an eyebrow at the suggestion, and Gus looked at Horace expectantly. Ezra also turned in delight to his brother.

Horace did not look so enthused. "I'll consider it, Miss. Thank you for the offer." Ezra kept his grin, but furrowed his brow in thought. Phineas wondered if he was getting an idea.

Sara was still staring at them, so Phineas waved cheerily. "Goodbye for now, Miss Sara!"

"Please don’t cry yourself to sleep in my absence!" Ezra bowed with a flourish. Gus copied the bow as best as he could while holding the metal ball.

Sara laughed and shook her head at them. "Get out of here, then. I hope you come back soon." She disappeared into the mansion.

Horace stared for a moment at the place where Sara stood, then turned to the motorcar, the ghosts following behind him. While Horace climbed into the driver's seat, the ghosts simply phased through the doors and into the back.

"You know, it would be nice to have a caretaker for the old place," Phineas said, settling down beside a window and placing his bag by his feet. "But your brother probably already has a job."

"I'm sure he does." Ezra rolled his eyes and leaned back in the middle of the seat as the car started to move. "Hey, Horace. Are you still stuck sweeping the streets? Maybe plunging a few toilets? Or did you finally grow a spine and tell your boss to shove it?"

Phineas and Gus stared at Ezra, who was suddenly frowning. They jumped a bit in surprise when Horace spoke.

"She was certainly very strange."

Ezra laughed loudly. "You think she's strange?" He looked at his brother's reflection in the rearview mirror. "Go and meet the folks inside the mansion."

The car suddenly lurched to a stop, and the ghosts had to quickly hold on to each other to avoid flying out. Horace turned around, his face inches away from Ezra's.

"Uhhh, boo?" Ezra said.

"Ezra! We talked about this!" Phineas's voice was stern as he faced his friend. "No scaring the living while they are driving these contraptions!" Gus nodded in agreement.

"I didn't mean to! Not this time!" Ezra was honestly shocked. He stared at his brother as Horace looked frantically around the car, breathing quickly. "Look, he can't see us now."

Gus tapped Ezra's knee and pointed back and forth between Ezra and Horace. Phineas leaned over and nodded. "Gus has a point. Maybe because you two are brothers, you can materialize in front of him more easily. You should probably be more careful until we reach his house."

Ezra frowned but leaned back as Horace got out and shakily cranked the car. He closed his eyes and sighed. "I guess you two will have to do without my dulcet tones for a while. In the meantime, Gus, why don't you tell us a story?"

Gus nodded and stroked his long beard thoughtfully.

Horace parked in front of a tidy house a little while later.

"Wow." Phineas shook his head and prepared to leave the car. "That was more information about hyenas than I ever wanted to know."

"Eh, I've heard worse," Ezra lied. He phased through the car and faced the home in front of him. Phineas appeared at his side and smiled cheerily. "What a lovely house. It seems the flowers he gave you were from his own garden." Phineas pointed to the marigolds at the perimeter of the house. Gus was already among the flowers, taking a big sniff.

"He's done really well for himself," Ezra stared in awe at the clean windows and newly painted wood. Horace stood at the door and knocked.

"I knew it." Ezra looked cross as he watched his brother thank the man in the house for lending him the car and letting him pick the flowers. Horace then walked across the street to what could only be described nicely as an eye-sore. "And you said you could make it just fine on your own, didn't you?" Phineas could feel the bitterness in Ezra's voice.

Horace walked the path to his hovel, breathing unsteadily, his face clearly still shaken. Phineas stared at the man, trying to remember meeting him, but his mind persisted in coming up blank. "Ezra, are you sure I met your brother when I was still alive?"

"Yeah, I'm sure." Ezra crossed his arms, still staring at Horace. "You two didn't get on too well, though, I don't think." Ezra shrugged his shoulders. "Don't worry about it. If you don't remember him, he might not remember you."

Horace walked up the rickety porch steps with his key, and Ezra followed his brother without looking back. Gus finally ran across the street, clearly unhappy with his unsuccessful attempts at trying to pick the neighbor's flowers. Phineas adjusted his hat with a sigh and walked on.

Horace shakily unlocked his front door and stepped inside, shivering as his brother and friends walked right through him.

Associated Dream

Night of May 19, 2024

I once again had a bunch of dreams that I remember snippets of.

In the first, I was with a South Asian man and his son who I knew to be my neighbours (they were not my actual neighbours). I was talking to the boy and he expressed disappointment in my being brown because he was used to being the only brown boy in school and he liked that. I asked him if he was mad at me for being brown. He said no. I mentioned to him that I have two younger brothers who are also brown.

In the second, I was in my parents' old house with my brother and cousins. We were all going to go out for the night, as it was our last day together. I went to the bathroom on the first floor and realized that I needed to change my pad. I asked my cousin, Shahnza, to slip a pad under the door for me, which she did.

It was raining hard and my cousins went to sit in the car while my brother and I were getting ready to join them. My brother, Ali, showed reluctance to go and he ended up asking for us to go home instead. I told as much to my cousin's family. We all hugged and said goodbye.

Ali and I started walking in the direction of where my car was parked. I pulled out my phone and Google Maps, only to find the route was a loop. It turns out, we had already driven to the hospital, which was where my car was parked. We turned around and walked into the hospital instead, happy to not have to do the walk.

In the last dream, I was inside a building that is hard to describe in terms of its purpose. I was with my family and some strangers, and we were being given a tour by an older, white man. During this tour, we were in a vault or locker area of some kind. I accidentally stepped onto an elevator that I wasn't supposed to and got separated from the group. I could still hear them, though, and the guide seemed unphased by what happened. He assured the group I'd find my way out.

Sure enough, I jumped from shelf to shelf in this narrow shaft until I found the exit. At the end, I came across this woman dressed in a revealing catwoman/cat burglar outfit. I knew her to be here to steal. She seemed distressed. Not wanting to blow up her spot, I left her be and caught up with the group.

I came upon a changing room, specifically the women's changing room. I heard the guide say, "Wash up if you want to become a billionaire". I said hell no and started running through the changing room and showers, trying to find the exit. There was so much water and I was getting soaked despite my attempts. I ended up finding the entrance to the men's changing room, turned around, and eventually found a cafeteria area that connected to both changing rooms. As I exited, so too did a woman who was also soaked and seemed like she had ran here similar to me. She cried out lightheartedly, asking why there isn't a place to dry. We laughed slightly and awkwardly at the situation.

Your son Connie finally returns from college today. Even though you're eager to see him, you've been a little uneasy because he's bringing someone. You won't know who it is until they both enter the room, which is unfortunate for you. Like any other mother, you immediately assumed he was bringing a girlfriend or even a boyfriend! This, however, was not at all the case.

You’ve spent all day cleaning your home, baking cookies, cooking dinner, and anything else to make Connie and his company feel more than welcome. Just as you pulled your cookies out of the scalding oven, you heard Connie calling out for you. Immediately, you leave your cookies on the counter, and quickly make your way to the front door. Out of pure excitement, you’ve completely ignored the tall man standing beside Connie. You shower Connie with kisses, squeezing him with all of your strength.

“Mom, you’re fuckin’ squeezing me to death.” Connie gasped, trying his hardest to pry you off of his body.

“I’ve just missed you so much! I don’t think you understand how lonely I am when you leave!” You squeezed him harder, only letting go once you felt that you’ve made him suffer enough. When you pulled away from him, you were able to get a clear view of who walked in the door with him. When you did realize who it was, your heart began beating rapidly.

“I can’t believe I was so rude to completely ignore your presence! It’s so great to see you again, Jean!” You pulled him into a hug as well, pressing his face into your cleavage. Though it was accidental, you received absolutely no complaints from Jean.

“It’s great to see you too, Ms. l/n. Have you gotten shorter since the last time we saw each other?”

You giggled, making your chest bounce against Jean’s cheek. He didn’t intend for you to find the joke funny. All he needed was a slight chuckle to get your breasts to somewhat bounce against him. Unfortunately for him, you eventually pulled him from your chest.

“You boys make yourselves comfortable! I’m almost finished with dinner.” You smiled at both men before making your way back into the kitchen.

You stayed in the kitchen for the following 30 minutes in silence. You believed Connie and Jean had gone upstairs to unpack and take a nap before dinner. Only one puzzle piece was still missing. Jean had come downstairs for a "drink of water". You had no idea that Jean had been watching from a distance. He had been observing your every move—the way you knelt down to pick up a pan, the way you reached for the spices in the cabinet while standing on the tips of your toes, the way your ass would jiggle ever so slightly as you lowered yourself to the floor. He kept an eye on everything you did. He was more than just aroused, to put it mildly. Though he would have loved to act like the pervert he is and jerk off to you in the hallway, he decided that getting close to you would be preferable. Before entering the kitchen, he put himself together in the hallway. Hearing his footsteps enter the kitchen, you spun around.

“Hey Jean! I hope you aren’t down here for dinner because it’s far from ready.” You grimaced as you looked into the pot on the stove.

“Nah, I came for water, but I’ll gladly take one of these cookies.” Jean made his way over to the plate of cookies. He went to grab one, but you immediately snatched his hand away.

“Nuh-uh, no cookies until after dinner! You’ll spoil your appetite, and I spent a lot of time on this dinner.”

He was barely able to maintain eye contact with you. You were slightly taller than him, so he was almost eye level to your tits. If he wasn’t staring at your tits, he was staring at your lips, imagining how soft they’d feel wrapped around his cock. Ultimately, his body made him lose his entire train of thought.

“What exactly are you making for dinner? You’ve been stirring that pot for forever.”

“It was my attempt at spaghetti. It’s Connie's favorite, and I wanted it to welcome him home. The only problem is, I have no idea how to make it a little spicier. I’ve tried chili powder, I’ve tried pepper, I’ve tried red pepper flakes, hell, I’ve even tried hot sauce! I just can’t seem to get it right.”

You sulked as Jean observed. He made an effort to comprehend how significant this lunch was to you. You wanted Connie's first night home in a year to be memorable because it was. Your spaghetti, however, did not resemble spaghetti at all. In fact, it resembled overcooked noodles drenched in a vomit like green sauce. However, he would keep that a secret. Even though he's an asshole, he wouldn't be so cruel as to make fun of you for trying. Instead, he comfortingly gripped your shoulders.

“Y’know, you don't have to make dinner. Honestly, we’ve had a long drive, and something light would be better. Plus, I wanna try that pool of yours out and I can’t do that on a heavy stomach.”

You started to cry a little, but Jean's kindness made you laugh. You two decided that perhaps a lighter supper would be better for all of you. You all caught up over pizza that evening. The more you laughed during the night thanks to Connie, the more Jean could observe the vulgar bouncing of your breasts. He glanced a couple times, and you saw it, but you didn't think much of it.

Once you all finished with dinner, Jean volunteered to help you with the dishes while Connie took his shower. You appreciated the company, especially since it’ll give you a chance to catch up with Jean. For Jean, it gave him an opportunity to find some way between your legs.

“So, how’s college? I had no idea you and Connie were going to the same college! Then again, he never does tell me anything about his life.”

Jean chuckled as he handed you the soapy plate for you to rinse. “Well, college is college. Lots of books, lots of people, lots of classes, and everything else. However, the only thing that’s missing are the pretty girls.”

His words made you feel somewhat jealous. He was so young and had so much life to live. You knew there was almost no chance that you’d be with him. You were able to cope with that when he and Connie were in a whole other state. Now that he’s here in the same kitchen as you, so close to you, it’s harder to ignore your feelings.

“Well, don’t spend all your time in college looking for a girl. You have a lot of life ahead of you and there’s more important things besides looking for a relationship.”

“Yeah, I suppose you’re right, Ms. l/n.”

You sighed and looked at him. “Jean, I’ve told you multiple times to just call me y/n. There’s no need for formalities.”

“Sorry, sorry. I just don’t want to be disrespectful to such a beautiful woman.”

Hearing that made you blush heavily. You couldn’t tell if it was from the 3 glasses of wine you had 20 minutes before, or if it was because Jean had called you beautiful very unexpectedly.

“It isn’t disrespectful if I’ve already said it was okay! You’ve been friends with Connie for years and I’m glad you have. He’s happy with your friendship, so I’m even more happy!”

Jean smiled at you, not exactly knowing how exactly he should respond without obviously flirting with you. Once you finished with the dishes, you made your promise to Jean. You slipped into your two-piece bikini and made your way into the pool area. When you arrived, Jean was nowhere to be seen. While you waited, you went ahead and got into the pool, trying to get used to the water temperature before Jean came to join you. When he did finally come outside, you were turned away from him, giving him a full view of your ass. The bikini you wore left little to the imagination, it barely even covered your ass. It might as well have been non-existent. All Jean could do was stare, wondering how your ass would look while taking you from behind, how it would look while you’re on your knees sucking his cock. When you turned around, he realized just how revealing your bikini was. The top was worse than the bottom. The way it hugged tightly around your large breasts made Jean want to do nothing more than take you where you stood.

“Jean, honey are you okay? You look really flushed. We don’t have to swim today if you aren’t feeling well.”

God the way you said his name made him even harder than he was before. He simply shook his head, trying to rid himself of his lewd thoughts as he walked to the edge of the pool. Seeing the way Jean looked down at you with a slight smirk made your cunt throb. You haven’t felt this way in forever. You couldn’t even maintain eye contact with Jean with the way he was making you feel.

“Nah, I’m good. ‘S just kinda warm out here.” Jean chuckled lightly.

Eventually, Jean joined you in the pool, swimming towards you. When he did reach you, you couldn’t help but stand there and stare at him. The way his body looked, the way he looked at you, the way his eyes bored into you. Everything and anything Jean did made you feel weak, and he could see it. He could see how tense you got when he moved closer to you. He could see your eyes shifting from his body to his face, then from his face to the growing tent in his pants. 

“Are you gonna stop staring, or am I gonna have to make you?”

You hadn’t even realized how long you were staring until he pointed it out. This made you instantly blush. The embarrassment kept you from being able to actually respond to his question. As he waited for your answer, you were trying your hardest to muster the courage to respond without sounding stupid.

“I-I wasn’t staring! I was only looking at the rose bush! It’s not my problem that you just happen to be standing directly in front of it.”

He chuckled..well, no. He laughed. He laughed at your response. You knew that he knew you were lying right through your teeth. All you could do was stand there, watching as he tried to catch his breath, but everytime he did, he just laughed even harder. Finally, after forever, he stopped laughing.

“That was the best excuse you could come up with? C’mon, I thought you’d give me something way more believable.”

“You are standing in front of the rose bush though.”

“Stop it with the damn rose bush. You can’t stare at something below you and something above you at the same time.”

“Jean, what the hell are you talking about?”

Jean sighed. At this point, he knew you would keep rambling just to avoid the confrontation. However, he couldn’t stand listening to you ramble about the damn rose bush any longer.

“You were staring at my dick. And before you even start with that goddamn rose bush, I saw you repeatedly look up at me and then back down at my pants. If you wanna touch it, just say that.”

“Excuse me?! Jean, that is extremely inappropriate of you to say something like that. Even if I did, I would never grope my son’s friend. That would be irresponsible of me as a mother.”

“If you give such a shit about being responsible, why are you still fighting the urge to stare at my cock?”

He was right. You had been holding your hands tightly in front of you. In reality, you desperately wanted to touch his cock. As much as you hate to admit it, you could give a shit less about being responsible or respected by Jean. In fact, you’d rather him be disrespectful to you. Just you biting your lip was enough of an answer for Jean. Without thinking, he picked you up, setting you on the edge of the pool. As of now, he was face to face with your breasts. Being this close to them for the second time of the night made him groan. 

You hold back a moan as Jean roughly grabs your tits. The way they overflow from his big hands make you whine. Jean didn’t look up at you once. He was mainly concerned about how soft your tits were and how perky your nipples were as they pebbled through your bikini top. 

“Not so worried about being such a ‘responsible mother’ now, are you?” Jean chuckles at your shy, but lewd reaction.

“Jean, you should stop! Connie might come out any minute!”

He didn’t stop though. He knew you couldn’t care less about your son coming out and catching the both of you. “C’mon, you know Connie. He goes right to sleep after his showers, and, as long as you don’t get too loud, he won’t catch us. Though, you might like the idea of him actually coming down and catching us.”

Yeah you definitely would love that idea, but it’s too early to try anything like that. You shouldn’t even be letting him touch you. Especially not so lewdly. You’d been so caught up in your own thoughts that you hadn’t realized that Jean was untying your bikini top until it was too late. Before you could protest, Jean pulled you into a kiss. It wasn’t the romantic kind of kiss that you’d be looking forward to. This kiss was more heated, more passionate. The aggressive hand behind your head pulling you closer to his lips, the rough clashing of teeth, the lewd exchange of each other’s saliva, all of it was enough to make you soaked in your bikini bottoms. You’d been so caught up in your lewd exchange of kisses with Jean, you hadn’t seen Jean’s hand creep up towards your middle. Though, even if you had noticed, you wouldn’t have stopped him.

“Jean, are you sure you want to do this? I’d hate to let my feelings come between you and my son’s relationship”

Jean knew you were trying to be sincere about it, but he also knew you wanted this as much as he did, even if it did hurt the relationship between him and your son.

“Of course I’m sure. How couldn’t I be when you’re practically begging me to fuck you. The question is, are you sure, Ms. l/n?” Jean watches your face redden when your last name smoothly and sexily rolls off his tongue.

Even if you weren’t so sure, it’s not like you could back out now. Especially not when he’s got one hand tightly gripping your waist and one hand pinching and twisting your sensitive nipples through your tiny bikini top. He knew you wouldn’t pass up this opportunity, knew you’d do anything to feel him inside of you.

As hard as you fought to speak through your moans, you merely failed, barely managing to whisper ‘Yeah, ‘m suuuure’, as your words began to slur. He couldn’t help but laugh a little at the way he was already mushing your brain. All you needed was a little push, and you were like putty in his hands.

“Yeah..yeah you are sure. Especially with how wet you are, how couldn’t you be sure?” Jean mocked you as he ran a finger through your slit. The squeal that left you made him shiver. He ached to touch you, he yearned to feel you, but he knew that making you beg for it would have a greater outcome.

“Jean-fuuuck!” You threw your head back, slightly grinding your hips into his finger. You knew he was teasing you like this on purpose, but who were you to not give him what he wants?

“C’mon, you complained about being too loud, but it seems like you want Connie to find you like this.” Jean pulled his finger away, immediately popping it into his mouth. He deeply sighed, the taste of you on his tongue making him want to do more than turn you into a brainless slut.

“First, you open the door in that tight ass shirt, and that tiny little pair of shorts with your cute little baking apron tied tightly around your hips.” Jean kissed down your body, inching ever so slowly towards your pussy. “Then, you prance around the house, looking like such a slut with these tits out. It’s like you wanted me to fuck you. And now, here you are, begging me to touch that slutty pussy, begging me to make you cum all over my face. You could care less if your son caught us. You wouldn’t stop me no matter how embarrassed you are. You want me to fuck you, to own you, to disrespect that nasty cunt until you cum.”

He was right. You wanted nothing more than to let Jean have complete control of your body and you could give less of a shit if Connie were to see. In fact, a small part of you hoped that he would see. Somehow, the thought of getting caught having sex with your son’s best friend made you wetter than before. At this point, you were done with the teasing, willing to do anything just to finally have Jean inside of you.

“J-Jean, please just fuck me”, You whimpered, watching Jean pay no attention to your begging and pleading . His focus was strictly on your cunt and the way it tightly clenched when his breath fanned over it.

“Nah, you don’t deserve it yet.” Jean pressed his thumb to your clit, watching how you immediately arch into his touch. As much as he adored the way you whined and grabbed at his wrist to keep his thumb in its place, he didn’t like how you thought you had any kind of control in this situation. Instead of punishing you for it, he let it slide just this once. “Stop movin’ so much or I won’t give you anything.”

You couldn’t even voice a response before Jean licked a long, and tantalizing slow stripe up your slit. The way his tongue laid flat against your clit, slightly flicking it up while rubbing your entrance with his thumb. Jean saw exactly how he made you feel. He calculated every movement you made and tried his hardest to make you do it over and over and-

“Are you even listenin’ to me? ‘Course you’re not, you’re too busy trying to get yourself off on my tongue.” Jean deeply sighed as he removed himself from between your legs.

“N-No! I was listening, I promise! Pleas-” You sobbed, grabbing onto Jean. You were immediately shut down when he grabbed your face in one hand, forcing you to look at him. The deadly glare, the orgasm that he denied you from, the aggression of his hand on your face, all of it was enough to have your eyes watering and your bottom lip wobbling.

“Shut the fuck up. ‘M so tired of listening to you whine and cry like a pathetic bitch.” Jean briefly let go of your face, but not for your own relief. He immediately used that hand to grab your throat while he used his other to slap you a bit. “You’re so used to gettin’ what you want. You’ve got the perfect life, the perfect body, the perfect son, everything. You’re just a spoiled fuckin’ brat and I’m tired of it.”

“‘M sorry Jean, wont whine anymore, I won’t complain, I’ll take anything you give me. Just..just wanna feel you, all of you.” You cried, grabbing onto the back of his neck. His expression softened a little, giving you the opportunity to kiss him. Not a slow kiss, but more of a passionate, steamy kiss. A kiss to let him know he had full control of you. When he pulled away, he let go of your neck, pushing himself out of the pool by its walls. Quickly, he picked you up and laid you onto one of your pool chairs nearby. 

As you laid helplessly on the chair, you watched Jean untie his swim shorts at a quick pace. He couldn’t wait anymore. As much as he wanted to continue teasing you until you had dry tears on your face, he just couldn’t wait to be inside of you for any longer. Even still, he was going to make sure you did know exactly who you belonged to. When he removed his shorts, you had a full view of his cock. He was definitely bigger out of his shorts than in. The sight made more than just your mouth water, and Jean could see the desperation in your face. He wasted no time moving between your legs, finally removing your bikini bottoms and tossing them to the side.

“I didn’t get to fully prep you this time, so I’ll be gentle, okay? If it hurts at any time, don’t hesitate to tell me to stop” Jean looked down at you with sincerity in his eyes. The lust that once clouded his eyes was gone, at least for now. All he cared about in this moment was making you feel so so good.

“Mhmm, I’ll tell you. I just wanna feel you, Jean. All of you.” You pulled his face down for another kiss, feeling his cock lightly brush against your cunt. Jean eventually pulled away, pushing your legs up slightly and asking you to hold them in that exact position. Once he got your verbal agreement, he slowly stroked himself over your pussy. He dipped the tip between your lips, rubbing it against your clit to make you twitch. He teased a little more by rubbing himself up and down your slit soooo slowly, just until he heard you softly beg him to ‘fucking put it in already’.

“Remember, just relax. It’s gonna hurt a little, but if it’s too much, I’ll stop.” Jean groaned out as he began slowly pushing into you. The way you instantly tightened around him made him moan a little louder than before. The deeper he pushed into you, the tighter you’d get. “C’mon baby, you’re doing so good for me, so so good. Just keep relaxing for me.”

“Faster, please-fuck Jean- faster! I wanna feel all of you.” You cried out as you felt the tip of his cock jerk against that soft spot inside of your cunt. You pulled your legs up closter towards your chest, giving him more access to your deepest parts. All Jean could do was groan at your neediness, pushing himself deeper into you per your demand. As much as he did want to keep going slow for you, he could tell that all you wanted was for him to just fuck you already. So, he shoved the last few inches into you with a harsh thrust, him groaning while you squeal loudly at the sudden aggression. Once he felt your walls relax around him, he wasted no time taking control. He replaced your hands on the backs of your thighs with his, pushing them impossibly close towards your chest.

“You want me to fuck you, huh? That’s what you want? Tell me, tell me you want me to fuck you.” Jean grinded his cock into you as he watched you twitch from the stimulation. As much as he did enjoy watching you feel so good, he still didn’t get any answer. “C’mon, you can act brainless later. I need your answer now, or I’m pulling out.”

The threat of him pulling out, completely withdrawing from your cunt, made you immediately begin to beg. “N-No! Don’t pull out please, I need you to fuck me! Please-” The rest of your begging became nothing more than a few babbles and even more moans and squeals as Jean finally began driving himself into your cunt with sharp and methodical thrusts. The more you moaned, the more tempted he felt to get even faster, just to see if you could get even louder. He wanted to alert Connie, he wanted your son to come downstairs and see her being fucked stupid in her backyard by his best friend.

Jean removed his hands from your thighs, throwing your legs over his shoulders as he bent over to kiss you. He knew you wouldn’t be able to kiss him back as much since the stimulation was too much for you. You were more focused on chasing that orgasm that he denied you from earlier. Luckily for you, that’s all Jean wanted to do. He couldn’t even think of cumming before making you cum for him first. To achieve this, he picked you up slightly by your waist, making your back arch upward, making it so much easier for his cock to continuously drive into that sensitive spot. Every thrust he gave you managed to hit that spot on the way in and on the way out. It made your eyes water, it made your mouth water, it made your toes curl, it made you feel so close. But, wait..did you always have to pee?

“Wait, Jean! I gotta-shit!-gotta pee! You gotta stop!” You thrashed in his hold as you squealed. He didn’t stop though, just let go of your hips and pushed your legs back into your chest.

“You’ve never even squirted before? Shiiit baby, I’m about to make your first time the best time.” Jean used one hand to thumb your clit while he slowed his strokes down slightly. At this moment, it’s not about speed. It’s all about precision. Jean continues a medium pace, but he hits that spot even harder now, continuing to rub your clit in slow circles. When he looks down at your cunt, he can see the white ring you’re leaving at the base of his cock. All he can do is moan at the sight as he spits on your clit for more lubricant. When he does this, you begin squirming even more than before. He fucks you through the squirming, but he does try to urge you to calm down.

“C’mon baby, stop squirmin’ and let yourself go. I’m not stoppin’ till you make a fucking mess.” Jean groans out while lightly slapping your clit. At this point, your toes hurt from curling so hard and you’re seeing stars. You can feel yourself getting closer and closer, and so can Jean.

“Jean, don’t stop! ‘M gonna-ugnn!-gonna cum! Lemme cum, please, I need it!” You beg, plead, and moan ever so loudly. Jean just knows now that Connie can hear all the noise you’re making. “Nobody’s stoppin’ you baby, let go.” Jean continues lightly slapping your clit while you continue to squirm and thrash around in his hold. Finally, with one more hard thrust, one more slap against your clit, and that dark look in Jean’s eyes, you let go. You can barely feel your lower half when you do, and your vision turns bright white with a loud ringing in your ears.

“Fuuuck, there you fuckin’ go, baby! That’s what I wanted.” Jean chucked as you squirt all over his chest, making the biggest mess with the loudest and most erotic moans. Just the sight of tears running down your face and juices still sputtering from your cunt is enough to make Jean want to cum. But, he needs one more. One more toe curling, spine aching, mess making orgasm out of you.

Once you came down from your mind shattering orgasm, Jean made no hesitation to prop you up on your knees, ass high up in the air. He expected to hear some protesting from you, but was excited to hear absolutely no complaints. The sight of you still trembling and trying to hold yourself up was enough to make Jean’s cock twitch a little. 

“J-Jean, please..” You reached behind you with a shaky hand, trying to, somehow, pull him closer to you. “Want’ you inside again, wanna cum again, please.” You whined out to him, trying to push your ass towards his groin, trying to at least feel the tip of his cock against your throbbing clit. But, to your dismay, Jean didn’t show the slightest bit of sympathy for you or your throbbing cunt.

“Awwh, you want me back inside? That’s so adorable baby, but-” Jean started, forcing the arm you used to grab him behind your back, resting right above your hip. With this newfound grip on you, Jean had a little more control of your actions than he did before. “You don’t get to have my cock whenever you want it. You can have my cock when I feel like you deserve it, and right now, I don’t feel like you do.”

You went to struggle against the restraint he had against your arm, which pissed him off even more. “No! Please, I want it! I deserve it, I’ve been so good!” You pleaded desperately. Though he loved listening to you beg for him, part of him wanted to hear you beg a little better than that.

“I know baby, I know.” Jean cooed at you, using his free hand to rub your ass softly. The way you leaned back into his touch, the way you just gave your body to him made his next choice of words come to him so much easier. “You gotta do somethin’ for me, okay pretty? If you can do this right, I’ll make you cum again.”

You immediately perked up, turning your head to look at him. “Mhm, I’ll do ‘nything for you, anything to cum.”

“Alright, if you say so honey. I need you to hold out for me, okay? Gonna get myself close, then I’ll let you cum.” Jean let go of the arm he had restrained behind you, still smoothing his hands over your ass. Once he heard your grunts of approval, and the tiny nodding of your head, he finally pushed himself back into your cunt. The deeper he forced himself, the closer you got to cumming, and Jean could feel it.

Your loud moans were like music to Jean’s ears, proof that he was making you feel so good, better than anyone’s made you feel. You could already feel yourself right at the edge, but you knew what you had to do, you knew what Jean wanted, and you knew what would happen if he didn’t get exactly that. Jean could feel how close you were, but he didn’t intend to make this easy for you. Where’s the fun in that? Instead of just letting you sit there while he does all the work, Jean stops moving, urging you to do it for him. “C’mon, slut. Be a gooood girl and push yourself back onto my cock. Don’t you fucking cum either, just work yourself on my co-yeah, that’s it.”

You tried your hardest to ground yourself as you rocked back and forth onto Jean’s cock. Each time he slipped out of you, it was hard for you to push him back in with how tightly you were clenching. You fought hard to not pull his cock out of you completely, but the stimulation from your last orgasm and your upcoming orgasm made it even harder. When you did pull too far, when he did ‘accidentally’ slip out, you made your best attempts to reach behind you and guide him back inside. Jean watched you struggle to keep your pace while not cumming, which pushed him closer to his release, but it wasn’t close enough.

Jean slowed your hips with a rough grip to your hips. When you looked behind you to find what the problem was, Jean took that as an opportunity to grab you by your neck. The way he tilted your head back so far made your back arch more. Though you could hardly breathe from the restraint he had on your neck, you still managed to keep your mouth shut. Jean stared down at you like this for a while until he spoke. “I’m almost there, honey. Just gotta take control for a bit, and then I’ll let you cum. Sound good?” He cooed at you as he began to continue thrusting into your poor, abused cunt. All you could do was nod. 

The restraint around your neck made it hard to speak, so you used your moans and your body language to speak to him. The way your eyes rolled back and your mouth hung open was enough to let Jean know just how far gone you were. This was exactly what he wanted. From the day Connie introduced him to you, he’s wanted to just take you and fuck you stupid. You’ve been dodging his previous attempts, which made him all the more attracted to you. He was glad that you’d finally given up the good girl facade and just let him take over.

Your loud squealing brought Jean back to reality. He watched as your legs began to shake, your breathing began to become shaky. Jean let go of your neck, letting your head fall back into the poolside chair. He slowly inched his hand lower, rubbing rough circles on your clit. The reaction he got from you told him more than he needed to know. You were close, and if he didn’t catch up to you, you’d cum whether any of you wanted to or not. Jean began picking up the pace of his thrusts, listening to your muffled cries.

“Tell me what you want, baby. Tell me what you need.” Jean rubbed your clit faster, watching you grip the sides of the chair. You tried your hardest to muster up the courage to open your mouth, to speak in full sentences, but with the way he was thrusting inside of you, you had many complications. “Pleease, please fill me up! I wan’ all of your cum inside of me daddy please!”

Jean’s breath hitched. He couldn’t believe what he was hearing. He grabbed your head, pulling you up to meet his chest. “Repeat that, would you? Say that shit again, I wanna hear you loud and clear.” He growled into your ear, slightly slowing his thrusts to bring your attention back to him.

“Fill me up daddy! Ohmygod yes!-I want you to make me a mommy, wanna have your babies!” You sobbed, holding onto the hand that’s been manipulating your puffy clit.

“Yeah? You want me to make ya a momma again? You wanna really made me a daddy? Well, c’mon and cum so I can fill this mommy cunt up baby.” Jean picked his thrusts up again, rubbing your clit even faster. You finally began to feel yourself get closer and closer, felt that heat in your gut begin to slowly disappear, until finally, finally, you came all over Jean. You felt it drip down your thighs, watched it soak into the poolside chair. Jean let you go, letting your limp body fall forward as he continued to sloppily thrust himself into you. You could hear him mumble something, but your mind was so fuzzy, which made it harder to comprehend anything. Finally, Jean slowed his thrusts, and you could feel his cum fill you up. 

When he stopped his thrusting, he pulled out of you, pulling his swim shorts back on. As he looked up toward your son’s window, he could see Connie watching with rage in his face. All Jean did was wave and grab pieces of your swimsuit. He would’ve loved to stay and watch you struggle to get back into your swimsuit, he had to leave before Connie beat him to a pulp.

“I gotta go, but let me know if you do, you know, end up pregnant” Jean slightly giggled at your attempt to nod your head at him. “I would advise you take an after pill, wouldn’t want ya getting knocked up.”

“‘M on birth control, Jean. Not havin’ anymore kids.” Your words were still slurring, trying to ground yourself once again so you could somehow make it up to your son.

“If ya say so. If you do wanna do this again, just call me. You have my number, I’m sure.” And with that, Jean went back into your house.  Though your son will never forgive you for ruining his friendship for some dick, you definitely don't regret your choices. If you could do it again, you would. Over, and over, and over, and over again <3.

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───

You had been cold all day, finding it almost impossible to get warm and finally settling on taking  a long, hot shower. The idea that you might have used up all the hot water didn’t bother you; that was a Frankie problem he could deal with later if he had to. Once you finally felt warm enough, your skin screaming for lotion as soon as you toweled yourself off with a big, fluffy towel, you padded back to your room. 

The house was quiet for what seemed like the first in forever; you loved Frankie and Benny but the two of them together was a lot. Benny was staying at the house you shared with Frankie for a few days while he had a contractor doing some work at his own place. While good hearted and nothing but kind, Benny was the definition of a chaotic mess. Somehow you managed to convince the boys to go out to the bar for a few drinks along with Santi and Will so you could have an evening to yourself. 

A contented sigh escaped your lips as you walked back into your room, dropping the towel you’d wrapped around your body without even bothering to close the door. You were home alone, might as well take advantage of it. Reaching into the dresser, you grabbed a clean t-shirt (one of Frankie’s that you managed to steal at some point) and some sleep shorts and tossed them onto the bed. 

Grabbing the bottle of your favorite lotion you pumped some into your palm before putting a leg onto your bed to start soothing your skin. You loved taking some time for self-care and this evening it felt nothing short of amazing. Once you were finished with your legs, you turned around to grab some more lotion when you heard the tell-tale creak of the floorboards. 

Without thinking about it, you turned around and found Benny outside of your bedroom, his face flushed a brilliant crimson before he murmured a small, “oh shit.”

“Benny!” it was then that you realized you were still completely naked, quickly scrambling to grab the towel off the floor to preserve whatever modicum of modesty you had remaining, “what are you doing here!?”

“We just got back,” he stammered as he slapped a hand over his eyes, “I was coming to see where you were and y-your door was open and you’re naked.”

“I thought I was home alone,” you groaned, your whole face flushing with warmth, “oh my god. Benny, go!”

Before he could say anything else, you quickly slammed the door in his face and locked it. You knew he would never try and open it, but in the moment it had seemed like the most sensible thing to do. You hastily pulled on your clothes before sitting down and trying to catch your breath. It wasn’t anything catastrophic or even that bad, but right now all you could think about was the awkwardness and the knowledge that Benny had now seen you naked. Of all of the boys, you’d have thought he would be the last one. 

“Fuck,” you groaned to yourself as you flopped on the bed. Maybe you were being dramatic, but it had thrown you for such a loop and you had a feeling it would take some time to not think about that moment whenever you saw Benny, “fuck.”

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───

Benny almost ran down the stairs and into the kitchen, opening the fridge to grab another beer. Frankie had been in the process of doing the same thing, giving the younger man a concerned look. 

“Everything alright?” He was amused as he watched Benny quickly open the bottle and take a long swig, “you look like you’ve seen a ghost.”

“Not a ghost,” he sighed deeply, “just Bee. Naked Bee.”

“I…what?” Frankie’s eyes widened in surprise as he tried to process what Benny said, “what do you mean…naked?”

“I went upstairs to see if she was up and maybe wanted to join us and her bedroom door was open and she was naked and I saw. I didn’t mean to look, I swear, it just happened so fast and she saw me and she freaked so I freaked,” it all came out in one long breath as an odd feeling panged through Frankie’s stomach, “she’s going to hate me forever.”

“She’s not going to hate you,” Frankie insisted, trying to push away the thought of but I might, “she’ll know it was an accident.”

“I know but damn,” he slinked into the chair at the kitchen table, sighing deeply, “I feel like a creep.”

“It’s fine-”

“But she’s fine as hell,” Benny felt guilty even admitting that out loud, “but you already knew that. Lucky bastard.”

“How does that make me lucky?” he grumbled as he took a seat across from Benny. He immediately felt like his behavior was childish, but he couldn’t help but be annoyed, “you’re the one that saw her.”

“You haven’t…you haven’t seen her?”

“I-what? No.”

“Aren’t you dating? At least sleeping together?”

“Why would we be in separate bedrooms if we were dating?” Frankie definitely wouldn’t want to be just roommates with you if he had anything to say about it. But he’d never quite been able to bring himself to admit that or his feelings towards you, “no, we - Bee and I are just friends.”

“Oh,” Benny took a drink, swallowing thickly before looking away, “we all thought there was…there was more to it.”

“Nope,” Frankie popped the p for emphasis before starting down at the table, “just friends.”

“It doesn’t seem like she likes you as just a friend,” Benny gave Frankie a curious little look, a smile tugging on the corners of his mouth, “and it appears to me that you like her as more than a friend. You like Bee, don’t cha Frankie?”

“Fuck off,  Miller. I, ugh…yes,” he finally admitted, finding it easier to get off his chest than he had originally thought, “but please don’t say anything to her. I don’t want to ruin our friendship or anything.”

“Sure, Fish,” he nodded, tapping the neck of his bottle against Frankie’s, “whatever you want man. But I’m just saying, she definitely sees you as more than a friend.”

“Miller.”

“Fine, fine,” he held up his hands in mock surrender, “she’s fine too, just remember that.”

“You’re the absolute worst!”

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───

By the next day you’d decided to push everything from the previous evening out of your head. So what if Benny had seen you naked? It wasn’t that weird; neither of you were doing anything and there was nothing wrong with seeing a nude body. On top of that you trusted Benny and knew he’d never say or do anything inappropriate or make you feel uncomfortable. No; instead you realized it was fine and neither of you had to mention it ever again.

By the time you were up and ready, the guys were gone, probably at work or going for a run or who knows what. You had the day off and decided to take advantage of the first bit of summer weather that had made its appearance that day. You’d convinced Frankie to clean the pool and get it ready for use the prior weekend, citing the fact that summer was just around the corner despite the odd cold snap that had occurred for a few days. 

After you’d made yourself a quick breakfast, you went back upstairs to grab the new book you’d started reading and changed into your bathing suit before going outside into the backyard to lounge by the pool. You liked the new two piece you’d picked out; it was enough coverage to where you felt comfortable but still made you feel sexy in all the right ways. Plus, you loved a good tropical palm print…the fact that this bathing suit happened to make a pair of Frankie’s swim trunks was just a happy little accident. Or not, you grinned to yourself, grabbing a towel on the way outside. 

You’d only been outside for a little bit, deciding to first water the flowers and plants you and Frankie had planted recently. You’d spent a whole day going to one of the local nurseries and picking everything out before planting them all just how you wanted. That had been a good day - a nice day spent among many with Frankie. 

“Hey Bee-” you heard Frankie opening the sliding screen door before you spotted him, turning around to find him frozen with his gaze focused on you. You set down the watering can before waving at him and almost bounding his way, “h-hi.”

“Hi Frankie,” you grinned at him. You noticed that he seemed stiff suddenly, and a bit of tension hung in the air, “everything all right?” 

“Y-yeah, of course,” he gave you a tight lipped smile, “w-what are you up to?”

“Well, I have the day off for once and wanted to take advantage of the warm weather and your pool cleaning efforts!” you grinned excitedly, “but I watered everything too. Don’t want all of our hard work to go to waste. Actually…do you think you could do me a huge favor, cielito?”

“Sure…”

“Can you help me with the sunscreen? I can’t reach all of my back and I’d rather that not be the area that gets burned,” you’d grabbed his hand and started pulling towards the spot with the poolside loungers, already intent on reaching for the sunscreen you’d had enough forethought to bring, “why don’t you relax me with me? You’ve been working so hard lately and you seem tense. Relaxation might do you some good!”

“Bee,” his throat felt so dry as he tried not to stare at you too lustfully but keep it respectful. You were so beautiful; soft, delicate skin, an ass he really wanted to grab and your breasts covered just enough to be acceptable but god did he want to rip that top right off. He shook his head to remind himself not to be a total creep; you were his best friend, he shouldn’t be having thoughts like this. You handed the sunscreen to him and quickly tied up your hair before sitting down on the soft lounge chair, “a-are you sure you want me to?”

“What’s wrong, cielito?” you teased, completely unaware of the effect your little nickname had on him, “afraid to get sunscreen on you? Come on, do me and I’ll do you.”

Fucking hell. You had to be doing this on purpose. It quickly became a herculean task to keep from getting a full hard on as he poured the sunscreen in his hand and gently massaged it into your back. Your soft little noises weren’t doing anything to help. He took a deep breath and told himself to focus. All he should be concerned about was keeping your delicate skin safe from the sun’s harmful rays. The only thing relaxation was going to bring to him right now was a blissful death from how good your skin felt.

“All done,” his voice was about two octaves higher than it normally was and you gave him a curious look but said nothing, “I-I’ll go and change. Are you-”

“Hurry up,” you insisted, giving him a sweet smile. He nodded, swallowing thickly as he tracked back into the house, wondering if he had enough time to get himself off before you grew suspicious. But no, he gritted his teeth, he was fine. He was a grown man that could handle hanging out with his gorgeous, wonderful, amazing best friend. Ugh. He really needed to chill.

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───

It was about fifteen minutes later when he finally came back out, wearing the swim trunks that matched your bikini. You couldn’t help but beam at him as he pulled his shirt off and sat next to you. You did your best not to stare at him, not wanting to be that shamelessly. Seeing him in just his trunks with his wild mop of dark curls definitely set off something feral within you. His warm, golden skin was tantalizing as you tried to keep from counting each little freckle, desperately wanting to map them out with your mouth. 

God, you need to get a grip and not lose it over him. Besides, there was no way he felt the same way about you. You wished he did, and a few times you were sure he had returned the desire that you had but neither of you had ever acted on it. 

“Turn around,” you whispered as he shifted so back was to you…that delicious broad back. Fuck. You need to pull yourself together. You reached for the sunscreen and started to rub it into his back, tracing your fingertips over as much skin as was appropriate in such a situation. You brought it all the way down his back, stopping just above the waistband of his trunks, wishing you could go lower. You cleared your throat, in a vain attempt to cover up the little moan that escaped your lips at the feeling of his muscles and shoulders under your hands, “there you go. All set.”

“Are you sure you got everything?” hell. Why was his stupid voice so delciously deep and rich? 

“Y-yeah,” you tried to calm your racing thoughts and not let them go straight between your legs, “I think you can handle the front.”

“I always seem to miss a few spots,” he said as stretched, causing the trunks to dip ever so slightly so you could see the cut of his hips and the trail of hair that started at his navel and disappeared under the fabric. Why was it a million degrees suddenly? He had the audacity to look at you with pure innocence in those big brown eyes, “do you mind, Bee? I don’t want to get burned.”

“Of course not,” your mouth was dry as the sahara but your bottoms were getting more wet with each passing second, “I’ve got you.”

You tried to keep repeating inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale as you rubbed in the sunscreen over his broad chest and down his torso. His skin was soft, scattered with freckles and a few scars from his time in the army, but so tempting. It felt like sin to be rubbing the lotion onto his skin when all you could think about was wanting to lick every inch of it. You tried to work as quickly as possible so your wanton hands didn’t give away your thoughts, instead focusing on his arms. But god, those were nice, toned and firm with big, strong hands. You wondered how they would feel all over your body, touching you like you’d always dreamed off.

“Thanks,” you’d never hated him and crinkly-eyed, dimple displaying smile more than in that moment, “you’re so good to me. Do you want a hand with the rest?”

This was a test. This had to be a test divined by the universe in order to see how strong your willpower was. How far could you be pushed until you snapped and threw yourself all over him? 

“I-if you want to,” you offered him the out, hoping - but not really - that he would say no, “we could just jump into the pool too? I’m sure we’ll be fine.”

“You’re supposed to wait fifteen minutes to half an hour before getting in,” he reminded as you every fiber of your being screamed for him, “but if you’re-”

“Touch me,” you blurted out before you could stop yourself, “I mean…umm, good ahead with the sunscreen.”

His tongue darted out to wet his lips before he pulled you closer to him, settling your body on the lounger in between his legs. Just look at the small tattoo on his inner thigh and it would all be okay. Don’t focus on having his hands all over you. 

He was slow and methodical in his approach, starting with your neck and shoulders before working into your arms. He brought it down your chest, the tips of his fingers resting just above the swell of your breasts. Frankie bit the inside of his cheek before letting himself go any further, “can I touch here?”

“Benny saw me naked,” you weren’t quite sure where the need to tell him this came from. But you just felt like you wanted him to know, “last night after I got out of the shower. It was an accident.”

“He told me,” he confessed quietly, “he was embarrassed and worried and hoped you wouldn’t think he was a creep.”

“No,” you shook your head softly, “I know it was just an accident. But there’s…umm…something else.”

“Dime,” he whispered as you decided it was now or never.

“I wish it had been you,” you confessed, worrying your bottom lip in a way that drove him crazy, “then I could have told you it was okay, you can look all you want, you can come in and do whatever you want.”

“Bee,” his voice was strained as he closed his eyes and inhaled deeply, “you can’t just say things like that and expect me to have any amount of self control. You drive me absolutely crazy and god, I’ve wanted you since the day we met. But I can’t take advantage of you.”

“It’s not taking advantage,” you reached up for the tie at the front of your top and slowly undid the knot, letting it fall open before hastily throwing it to the side, “when I want you too. For so long now.”

“Bee…”

“You can touch me,” you whispered as you leaned in closer to him, face just inches from his, “I want you to, mi cielito.”

“If I start I won’t be able to stop.”

“Good thing I don’t want you to stop,” before you could say anything else he cut you off by finally - finally - pressing his lips against yours and kissing you with a desperate, needy hunger, “Francisco, please.”

“I love it when you call me that,” he gently nudged his nose against yours, “I love you, Bee.”

“I love you too,” you kissed him quickly, “take me inside so we can finally do this and do it properly.”

“Fuck yes.”

Y/n hadn't seen her dad 2 months prior to going to Masterchef do to leaving for stranger things 4. So that was adding to not seeing him longer. Of course she was thankful for all her family members for supporting her dream but she just wanted her dad for a while.

Everyone now was with a loved one as they called everyone's name. Everyone except Y/n. People started to send Y/n sympathy glances and even some hugs.

No one came for her. Your eyes started to water. She's trying to keep a head on her shoulders, But everyone can see that she is missing her family the most.

" Y/n " Gordon said looking at you sympathy. You looked him and wiped your eyes

" I know that you miss your family dearly but there fight got delayed by bad weather " You nodded weakly

" But don't worry we brought someone who we think you would rather be here with then anyone else " Gordon said all the sudden getting energetic and smiley . What is he talking about??. You started to get more confused then disappointed. Gordon then gestured to the door again.

" The man that my daughter Tilly has had a crush on since the first season of the incredible Netflix series "Stranger things " " You covered your mouth, starting to tear up even more.

" Your Wonderful Dad, Joe Kerry! " Gordon said.

Tears started to run down your face as you see a familiar face smiling brightly at you with glossy eyes as well. You ran to the door, he put his arms out now have few tears streaming down his face. As you got to him you both hug each other so hard that it was like the last time you ever see each other again.

" Dad.. " Y/n said now crying holding onto him. You felt tears fall on your clothes. You pull away from him to look up at him.

" I missed you so much honey.... like a lot " Joe said chuckling looking back at you. He then picked you up, you laughed as he took you back to your station smiling the whole way. He put you down and put an arm around you.

" Now let's get to the serious stuff. Today you will be making a dish that is inspired by your family. Don't be fooled because today.....is just a elimination challenge " Gordon said serious. Y/n mind started to run with thoughts of dishes she could do. You felt your dads grip tightened. He went down to her ear

" Win or lose I'm so incredibly proud of you " Joe said kissing your head lovingly.

" Families would you please head up to the balcony " Gordon jested to the balcony. Joe hugs y/n one more time and kissed her cheek. He started to head to the stairs with everyone else. He goes to the rails and jogs to a spot where there is a clear view of your station.

" You will create a dish inspired by your family and elevate it into a Masterchef worthy dish " Gram said

" Your time starts... " some people started to get into a running position

.

.

.

" NOW!! "

Everyone starts running while they're family cheers them on.Y/n runs to the ingredients and starts putting them in her basket

" My favorite memory is when my Dad took me on set of stranger things 3 and he was wearing his *giggles* sailor outfit and we ate ice cream off set together. We had a daddy & daughter day" Y/n said in the interview

Everyone ran back to their stations with their ingredients, Starting to cook.

After a while the judges started to come around. Gram walked over to y/n

" Hey Y/n"

"Hello chef "

"So what you making to day?"

" I'm going baker today and I am doing a homemade butter scotch and pecan ice cream with a dark chocolate brownie and a berry Cooley "

" Woah!, I don't think we have ever seen you bake before"

" well todays the first for you guys then ☺️"

Gram then walks away and tells the other judges what your doing. They both had impressed looks on their faces.

" Your doing great honey! Eyes on the prize" Joe shouted from the balcony with a big smile on his face. He can't believe this was his baby girl, he's so proud.

" 2 minutes Left!! Everyone should be platting "

Now chaos rolls over the kitchen. Food flying everywhere, judges screaming the time, Families screaming for there loved one, and people running around.

.

" Hands up! "

Everyone did just that. Some people don't look happy with there dishes but other were happy. Especially Y/n. It's exactly what she wanted to honor her and her father's memories. After a few people got mixed reviews the more nervous you were getting. Was this be enough it get me to top 9? With an ice cream.

" Y/n." This broke you out of your thoughts and quickly go to the podium and place your dish down. Not long after you could hear your father clapping loudly for you.

" So! Y/n this is the first time I have ever seen you make a dessert" Gordon said with a smile. That eases your nerves a little.

" yeah, I wanted to show I wasn't a one trick pony that only cook savory "

" what is it? And what is it called?"

" I call it a Scope of Kerry, it's a homemade butter scotch and pecan ice cream with a dark chocolate brownie and a berry Cooley "

" well, visually it looks Amazing "

" Thank you chef "

Gordon takes a spoonful and eats it. He looks at you not saying a word like he did with the other competitors. Your nerves started to get to much to handle. He then just walks away. Your eyes widen, was it really that bad?!. Was it to safe? Gram then went up and tried it, nodding he went back to the other judges. You went back to your station with a forced lip tight smile. Your eyes started to water again, looking down in shame.

Joe just wanted to run down there, hold you, tell you that no matter what you'll will be a winner in his eyes. Tell you that he loves more then life itself. More people went up some got more compliments then others. Finally it was time.

" The person that will advance Top 9 and will have an advantage next elimination challenge is................... Y/N!!"

Everyone irritated into loud cheers, happy for the teen girl. You could believe it, you got it. You started to jump around in joy like a crazy person but Joe wasn't any better. He was like an animal. Jumping around on the balcony so much that it could break. Shooting your name in happiness. Without wasting a second Joe ran down the stairs and practically flew to your station. He spun you around giving you one of his famous massive bear hugs. You may have not won MasterChef yet, but you have truly won over the judges another day.

Do you want a scoop of Kerry?? ☺️

(Not So) Casual Friday

Fandom: Criminal Minds Pairings: Aaron Hotchner/Female Reader Word Count: 4,456 Tags: 18+, NSFW, Dad Bod Hotch (it's not a main component but he very much has the tummy here), Pining, Accidentally admitting attraction, Embarrassment, A little angst, Oral sex, Protected sex Summary: Your best friend Derek finds out about your feelings for Hotch and teases you mercilessly. You can manage it, though, until the first ever Casual Friday, when Hotch shows up to work in a black polo and jeans and you kind of ruin everything. Or maybe you don't? *Requested by anon Link to A03 or read below! “Okay, girlie, today’s the day,” Derek says when you set your bag and coffee cup on your desk on Monday morning. You shoot your best friend a tired smile and wonder for the—you’ve worked at the BAU for almost two years, so it’s probably the 500th time—for the 500th time why he has to be such a morning person when you would prefer not to have a conversation until at least 10 AM.

“Today’s the day for what?” you sigh, asking out of obligation, because it’s obvious that’s what he’s waiting for; he smiles, picks up your coffee and hands it to you, which must mean you sound bitchy. You take a grateful sip, close your eyes and exhale through your nose.

“For you to admit to me that you’re in love with Hotch.”

You spit out your coffee—only all over yourself, which is great, wouldn’t want to inconvenience Derek at all—and then cough so hard he has to thump on your back to help clear your airway.

It draws some attention; Hotch comes out of his office, takes a look at the two of you and probably regrets hiring the both of you, then walks down the stairs to make sure you’re okay.

“What happened? You’re wet,” he says a bit gruffly, looking at the coffee all over your chest and sleeves. You glare over at Derek, who’s clearly trying not to laugh.

“Derek made me spill my coffee.” You grab a handful of tissues off your desk and pat at the wet spot, trying to soak up the worst of it, but it’s not salvageable. You’ll have to change your shirt.

“And then you… choked on it?” Hotch asks, to clarify. Derek does laugh at that; the things Hotch is saying happen to have dual meanings, slightly sexual, and now that Derek knows—thinks he knows—about your thing for Hotch, it’s clear he finds it all so hilarious. He’s a twelve year old boy in a grown man’s body.

“Okay, I didn’t spill, I spit,” you correct, looking up at them, and Derek makes an exaggerated face of disapproval.

“Should have swallowed,” he says, trying to sound serious, and you shoot him an irritated look and reach out to slap him in the chest. Asshole.

“Do you need help getting cleaned up?” Hotch’s expression is kind, sweet, but you’d sooner die than have him blot coffee off of your boobs. It would be mortifying, especially in front of Derek.

“No, no, I think I’m okay. Thanks,” you add with a soft smile, and then you reach up and pull your sweater over your head, unzip your go bag, and search for another top.

For some reason, Hotch has a coughing fit scarily similar to the one you just had, and you turn to pat his back like Derek did for you.

“Are you alright?” you ask, looking up into his face, and he nods despite his watering eyes.

“Fine,” he croaks, and he leaves as quickly as he came. You sigh, because it’s not even nine and your day has already been so weird.

You’re wearing a tank top, and thankfully the coffee didn’t get through to that layer, so it’s quick and easy to throw another lightweight sweater over top of it; you ball up the wet one, shove it in the dirty clothes portion of your bag, zip it up and stash it under your desk. Derek looks like he’s having the best day of his life.

“You realize you just undressed in front of Hotch,” he says with a tone you don’t appreciate. You roll your eyes.

“I did not. I had a tank top on underneath.” You almost always wear an undershirt, because you’ve been a cop long enough to know that sometimes your clothes get torn or messed up in the line of duty, and you’re not trying to offer a free show while taking down an unsub. Derek wiggles his eyebrows, points at your chest.

“Yeah, one that put those little boobies on display. His eyes bulged out of his head like a cartoon character.” This time, you punch him in the arm, hard. It’s too goddamn early for this.

“Can you please shut up already? I don’t have a thing for Hotch.”

“Ah, I didn’t say you had a thing, I said you’re in love with him. And I have evidence; lots of it.” You tip your head back, groan, wondering what you did to deserve a best friend who is also such a pain in the ass, and it’s that moment that Hotch chooses to rejoin you; he looks a little flushed, probably from the coughing earlier.

“Uh. We have a case; I know not everyone is here yet, but you can head up to the briefing room, I’ll grab the others when they arrive.”

“Sure thing, sir,” you say easily, grabbing your tablet and what’s left of your coffee; you gesture for Derek and he follows, laughing and shaking his head. “Okay, what is it now? I’m so glad you find me entertaining today.”

“‘Sure thing, sir,’” he says with a high, breathy voice you assume is supposed to mimic yours. “You want his dick so bad.” You narrow your eyes at him as you head upstairs.

“Uh, because I was being respectful? I know that’s a foreign concept for you, the world’s biggest asshole, but you don’t have to read anything into it.” You take your usual seats at the table, pull up the note-taking app on your tablet, and Derek sits back, crosses his arms behind his head.

“Well you’re not calling me ‘sir’, and I’m the sexiest piece in the office, so it’s hard not to read into it.” You look over at him, elbow on the table, chin in the palm of your hand.

“Sexy is subjective, and you don’t do it for me, sorry to break it to you.” He scoffs, laughs, and you laugh too because you both know you see each other as brother and sister, buddies, and fellow former cops, and absolutely nothing else.

“Yeah, I get it, only Hotch does it for you; he’s not my type, but I can see how a young lady like yourself could be drawn to his brooding exterior.”

“I’m not drawn to his exterior!” you practically growl, and then you’re joined by Spencer and JJ.

“Good morning. What’s going on with you two?” JJ asks, loading up the monitors for the debriefing, her eyebrows raised.

“She’s in love with Hotch,” Derek says completely nonchalantly, and you rest your head on the table, on top of your forearms, and sigh.

“She’s what?” JJ’s whole face lights up, and you seriously regret everything.

“I’m not in love with anybody!” you mumble against your arms, and then you sit up, because you’re clearly going to have to defend yourself. “And I’d appreciate it if you quit saying that I am.”

“I told you I have evidence,” Derek reminds you, leaning back in his chair a little. One swift kick would have him toppling ass over tea kettle, but you’re too nice, even when he’s actively trying to ruin your life. “Shall I go over it while we wait?”

“I’ll be an objective third party,” Spencer says with a brief smile, and you sigh, wave your hand toward Derek.

“Alright, let’s hear it. I’m sure I have a perfectly reasonable explanation for whatever evidence you might think you have.” He grins like this is the moment he’s been waiting for, and you feel a little stupid for encouraging this.

“For one, you always look at him. When I’m delivering a profile, I notice you watching the locals, making sure they understand what we’re going over, since you're the queen of analyzing the micro expressions. But when Hotch is delivering a profile, your eyes are on him the whole time. Same goes for discussing theories on the jet; anyone else, and you’ve got your face in your tablet, scribbling notes, but you always look at him when he speaks.”

Your cheeks get hot. He’s a captivating speaker, is all, with that deep, velvety voice, and you can learn a lot from him, so you pay attention. That’s just being smart.

“Second, you tense when he gets close to you: not like you don’t want him to touch you, but like you’re halfway to jumping him already and trying to control it. I could probably put my hand in your pocket and you wouldn't even flinch, but if he leans over you to point at something you look like you’re about to cream your pants.”

“I have seen that, actually,” JJ offers, and you look over at her, betrayed. Sure, you get a whiff of his clean, crisp cologne, or feel the heat of him at your back, and your body reacts, reminds you that this is your boss and you’re at work and you can’t get turned on by the way he smells, but that’s actually a good thing, not an indicator of feelings or anything.

“Third, there’s something up with you and the gray suits. I can literally tell that he’s wearing one before I even see him, all because of the look on your face. It’s like you’re drunk on the gray suit.”

“Okay, that’s not true,” you say with a roll of your eyes—the gray suits are god tier, but there’s no way you’re that obvious—but it’s Spencer who speaks up, this time.

“You know, I have noticed that. Your pupils tend to be more dilated when his suit is gray or blue than when it’s black.” Fuck. You sigh.

“He barely ever wears the blue. It looks so good on him,” you murmur, and then you snap your eyes shut, cover your face with your hands. “Fuck. This is so embarrassing.”

“To be fair, we are profilers,” Derek says, leaning in to pat your back. “But also to be fair, he’s been a profiler longer than any of us, so if we know, he definitely knows.”

“Not helping, Derek,” you grind out, and then you’re joined by the rest of the team. Penelope takes the seat next to you, leans in with a worried tone of voice.

“Is everything okay?”

“She’s having a small crisis, but she’ll be fine,” JJ says with a smile, and you don’t miss the way Hotch looks you over when she says it, concern in his eyes. “Alright, so we’re headed to Arkansas…”

Later that morning, when you’ve been given your instructions—yours are heading to the crime scene with Emily and Derek—Hotch pulls you out into the hall, rests a gentle hand on your arm.

“Are you alright? JJ mentioned you were having a crisis earlier. This is the first time I’ve been able to get you alone, and I wanted to check on you.” You take a deep breath, look up at him, so handsome in a black suit, white shirt, green tie—he almost never wears a green tie, and you absently think it brings out the more golden tones of his eyes—and smile softly.

“Yeah, I’m fine. It’s really nothing. Personal stuff, and I’m dealing with it.” If by ‘dealing with it’ you mean you’ve been repressing it, shoving it down day in and day out until your feelings are choking you, then yeah, you’re dealing with it. “Thanks for checking, though, that’s kind of you.”

“Of course. I’m here to help in any way I can, if you need me.” Good god, do you need him, emotionally, physically, but that’s fantasy, and this, what he’s offering, is rooted in reality. Good things do happen, but not to you.

“Thanks.” Your voice is weak to your own ears, and he swallows, nods; you see Derek hovering by the door, waiting for you, and you pull away to join him, plastering a smile on your face. You don’t talk about it again until Friday, and at that point it’s extremely unavoidable.

It’s Casual Friday, newly implemented by the bureau as a way to boost morale, and while it doesn’t really excite you, because you’re fairly casual anyway, others take full advantage of it. Others, including Hotch.

He shows up to work wearing a black polo and dark jeans, his usual watch. It’s easily the most simplistic, basic outfit a man could decide to wear on Casual Friday, but this isn’t just a man, it’s Aaron fucking Hotchner, and so naturally, you lose your damn mind.

It wouldn’t be so bad if the damn polo didn’t fit him perfectly, tight across his shoulders and chest and the little tummy he has that makes you want to be under him so badly, your stomachs pressed together while he thrusts inside you, holding you tightly, his strong thighs working against yours…

“Hello, are you alive in there?” Emily asks, waving her hand in front of your face; the two of you, along with Derek, are in Penelope’s office for lunch while Rossi, Reid, and JJ are out of the office for a seminar. You blink, shake away your thoughts and hope and pray they don’t come back—but they’ll come back, they always do.

“She’s just short circuiting because of Hotch’s Casual Friday look,” Morgan says with a wink, sitting backward in his seat. “She’s been drooling so much I’ve had to follow her around with a mop to clean up after her.” You push your wheeled chair away from them with a groan, needing space and air and, potentially, a brain transplant. You’ve gotten nothing done all day long.

“Can you blame me? The man comes in here everyday, buttoned up tight, looking incredible in a suit and tie, and then he shows up in that black polo, all snug and hot and delicious, and you expect me not to freak out? You guys are lucky I didn’t pass out.” You’re met with silence, and you blink, confused, at your friends, but they’re all just kind of staring with looks of barely concealed humor. “What? It’s not like it’s a secret that I want to climb him like a tree.”

“Pretty sure it was a secret to him,” Penelope says, looking shocked, and you whip around in your chair to see Hotch standing in the doorway, wide-eyed and a little flushed.

“Oh my god. I’m so sorry. I, uh—” He raises a hand, waves you off.

“It’s okay. No harm done; thank you, for the, uh. Compliment.” He steps forward, hands a manila folder to Penelope. “Thanks for taking care of these,” he says softly, and then, unsurprisingly, he gets the hell out of there. You wish you could disappear off the face of the Earth.

“Fuck, holy fuck,” you mutter when he’s gone, leaning forward with your head in your hands. “That’s it, I’m quitting. It’s been nice knowing you guys.”

“Okay, don’t be dramatic,” Derek says, and you look up to glare at him; he’s the one that started all this in the first place. You were fine, feelings tamped down and suppressed, until he brought it up and then told everyone you know.

“Don’t tell me not to be dramatic, Derek! This is all your fault. You never respect my boundaries, you never know when to just let me be, you always have to pick and pick until you wear me down. Maybe I had a reason for wanting to keep my feelings private, did you ever think of that?”

“I know you're upset,” Emily begins softly, because there’s some pretty thick tension between you and Derek now, but you stand up, push your chair across the room, and shake your head.

“I’m not upset, I’m fucking humiliated. I’m going home; let him know I’m sick, will you?” You exhale deeply, storm upstairs and grab your stuff and drive home with tears in your eyes. You’ve never been so embarrassed in your life, and add that to the absolute heartbreak you’re feeling? You’re just happy you make it to your apartment, so you can break down with cheesecake and a sappy, romantic comedy with a happy ending: those perfect, fictional worlds are pretty much the only place one is guaranteed. You are, as planned, hunkered down on the sofa in your softest pajamas, watching You’ve Got Mail and eating the center out of an entire cheesecake with a spoon when there’s a knock at your door. You groan, pick up your cheesecake tin, and walk over to it, fully expecting it to be Derek come to beg for forgiveness for ruining your life, so it’s no surprise you drop your dessert on the floor when it’s actually Hotch on the other side.

He looks down at the tin, then up at your face, cracks the barest hint of a smile.

“I thought you were sick; I brought soup,” he says, holding up a paper bag, and your heart thumps in your chest. You wipe a hand over your face, because you haven’t been exactly neat in your heartache cheesecake consumption, and then you kick the tin across the floor and invite him in, closing the door behind him.

“I thought it was obvious that I wasn’t actually sick, just… really embarrassed,” you say when he turns back to look at you. “I can’t believe you heard all that stuff I said… I’m really sorry I made you uncomfortable.” You take the bag from his hand and invite him to follow you into the kitchen, where you set it on the counter, lean against it. He comes close, but not so close you can’t function, which is good; your comfy pajamas are shorts and a loose tank top, so you feel a little exposed already.

“You didn’t make me uncomfortable,” he says softly, and you frown, must have heard him wrong. He presses his fingertips against the counter, as if for support. “You didn’t make me uncomfortable. It was… unexpected,” he explains, “very unexpected, but I’m not uncomfortable.”

You flush hot, and you can feel the bad decision part of your brain switching on, warning bells ringing in your head.

Whatever you do next has the potential to be extremely stupid, and you would like to avoid that at all costs; you love your job, after all, despite how physically and emotionally exhausting it can be, and you love your team. Time to think with your upstairs brain only.

“That makes me feel a little better,” you say truthfully, and despite the pep talk you just gave yourself, you move closer to him like there’s an invisible magnetic force between you; you would imagine a guy like Hotch would step back, keep his distance, but he only cranes his neck a little so he can look down at you more easily.

God, he’s tall. And he smells good, and his face is perfect, and that goddamn polo...

“Good, I’m glad. I don’t want you to feel bad about this. I’m not uncomfortable, it’s not… it’s not unwanted.” You swallow audibly, looking up at him, wondering if he knows what he’s saying, what it sounds like.

“It’s not?” you ask, and it comes out breathy; he takes a small step closer to you, brushes his fingers over your arm, peers into your eyes.

“No, it’s not. I’ve been thinking of you, too; I know you know you’re beautiful, but you’re also so smart, and strong-willed, and a force to be reckoned with. I’m proud to have you on my team, and I’d be proud… to have you climb me like a tree.” He smiles again, just the barest hint of one, and you put your arms around him and pull him closer for a kiss.

One long, slow, perfect kiss turns into another, then another, and he presses your back against the counter, his hands on your face and your hands on his thick waist; you hum into the kiss, revel in the feel of his lips on yours, his tongue sweeping past them, and when you pull back for air it feels like there’s only one question that needs to be asked.

“Bedroom?” you breathe, and he nods, and you take his hand and pull him in that direction, pausing to kiss him several times before you get there. “You don’t happen to have a condom, do you?” you ask, breathless, guiding him to the bed, and he frowns, shakes his head.

“I didn’t want to seem presumptuous.” You grin at that, lean forward and kiss him, your fingers in his hair.

“I find it so hot that you even say presumptuous. I might have one here somewhere.” You open your nightstand, move around books and toys until you find a couple; you flip them over, checking to see if they’re expired, and offer him a couple options. “They’re still good, surprisingly. You can, uh. Choose the one that would work best.”

He looks them over, picks one and hands back the rest, and you throw them back in the drawer and slide into his lap, wrap your arms around his shoulders.

“I’ve wanted you for so long,” he says, holding your waist as you look down at him, completely in awe that this is happening. “But I want to clarify: if you’re looking for something casual, I don’t think we should go any further.” You inhale softly, surprised by his straightforwardness, and you lean in, kiss him slowly.

“I don’t want casual. I want to be with you.” His eyes are so brilliant, dark in the dim light of your bedroom, and he nods, presses his lips to yours and slides his hands beneath your top, guides it over your head. Then they move to your shorts, slipping them gently off your hips, and you stand so he can push them to the ground.

You’re both breathing heavily, a little rough, and you step between his legs, kiss him again, run your hands down his chest, closing your eyes with a sigh because you finally get to feel him after a year of just imagining what it would be like. After a beat, you open your eyes, look into his, smile.

“Really grateful for Casual Friday,” you whisper. “Otherwise you might never have found out I’m kind of in love with you.” You ease the polo over his head, drop it on the ground and encourage him to stand so you can take off his pants; he does, but before you can drop to your knees as planned, he takes your face in his hands, presses one soft kiss against your mouth.

“I’m more than kind of in love with you.” Oh, if that isn’t the greatest sentence your ears have ever heard… You wrap your arms around his neck, kiss a little more, forgetting that you planned to finish undressing him; when you remember, you make quick work of it, then have him lay back against the bed and settle between his legs.

You put your mouth on him because you want to, more than anything, and his hand drops to your hair, caressing you while you suck slowly, deeply, holding him with one hand and pressing against his stomach with the other. His moans are soft and gorgeous, his body tense beneath your hand, and you’d do this all night, but he murmurs your name, coaxes you up, puts his hands on your back as you settle against him.

“You’re so incredible. I never would have imagined I’d get this, get you,” he breathes, skimming his hands over your sides and hips, and you kiss softly, steamy and sweet.

“Me neither.” You lean up, make space for him to roll on the condom, and then press him inside; your breath hitches, and so does his, and you lay on top of him, chest to chest, stomach to stomach, arms around each other tightly while you move. “Hmm. Aaron,” you sigh, hair falling around him, and he groans, digs his fingertips into your hips.

“Sounds so perfect coming out of your mouth.” You smile, but it slips away when he surges up to kiss you, leans up so he’s sitting with you in his lap. He slides a broad hand up your back, wraps it around the nape of your neck, and pumps his hips up as you sink down, eliciting a series of soft, eager moans from the both of you.

“Feels like I’ve waited so long; I’ve never wanted someone as badly as I wanted you,” you tell him, chest heaving, and he brings you to him for a kiss, something a little rougher, less refined. He’s getting close.

“Never. You make me feel so much.” You reach back against his leg for support, work harder to bring him off, and when he comes he crushes his mouth against yours, delicious and more uncontrolled than you’ve ever seen him. He chants your name, so soft and sweet rolling off of his tongue, and then gets you on your back so he can press deeply inside.

You feel so incredibly full, panting beneath him, your hands on his waist and your feet on the backs of his thighs; his perfect face is inches from yours, all shallow breaths and decadent, passionate kisses, and when you climax you pull him closer, sigh, unravel completely in his embrace.

Maybe good things do happen after all. You hold each other and talk for a while, after a quick pitstop to the restroom, and then your stomach growls—understandably, since the only thing to fill it since lunch was that stupid cheesecake—and Hotch orders takeout on his phone from bed; god bless technology.

There’s a knock at the door twenty minutes later, and you know that’s quick for your favorite Thai place, but you’re not complaining because you’re officially starving. He offers to grab it, throws on his boxers and heads for the living room; after a few minutes, you wonder what’s taking so long, pull on your robe and go to check on him.

Hotch is talking to Derek, who is standing in your living room with a piece of cheesecake and a shit eating grin.

“I came with a peace offering, but now I think I’ll wait for a, ‘Thank you, Derek,’” he says, and you roll your eyes, stalk over and take the cheesecake out of his hands. You give it to Hotch, lean up to kiss Derek on the cheek, and push him toward the door.

“Thank you, Derek. Go away, Derek,” you say with a smile of your own, and he raises his palms and retreats down the hall, laughing as he goes.

This is just one more thing he’ll tease you mercilessly about, but this time the benefits outweigh the costs. Taglist ❤️: @arsonhotchner @mrsh0tchner @ssahotchie @sleepyreaderreads @mintphoenix @meghannnnnn @disgruntledchowchow @azenpal @g-l-pierce @my-rosegold-soul @ssamorganhotchner

Prompt #1: something with bench trio,, mayhaps a trip to the beach,, and one or two of the trio are mers/sirens?

Hope you enjoy! Since I got this done early, I'll hopefully be able to do both prompts!

...

So Cool, Almost Made Me Forget I Was Drowning

Tws for bullying, drowning, accidental fearplay, calling a person "it" in a dehumanizing way

...

Ranboo lived in the small seaside town all his life. So it would be a logical conclusion to assume that Ranboo had learned to swim by now.

... no...

APARENTLY Ranboo's parents had found him in a wooden crate drifting at sea when he was a toddler. Due to general superstition of the town, his parents generally kept him away from the water.

As well as... Ranboo couldn't bring himself to get within a few feet of the ocean.

Something super cool and awesome when you lived by a seaside town and already look weird and don't even know your own history.

Perfect bullying material, apparently.

It would be logical to assume that the bullying would decrease during summer. Everyone would be glad to leave town for vacation, less time interacting because of no school.

But nope! Less school means more time for his bullies to hunt him down! And little to no adult supervision so they could beat the crap out of him!

Currently, Ranboo was being restrained by two goons. While Ranboo hated the water, he loved the beach. One of his main antagonizers had stumbled into him and were dragging him over to the ocean.

"Awe!" The bully (Ranboo was bad at names and had bigger things to worry about than to try and remember, sue him) fake cooed. "Afraid of the water?"

The goon on his left pulled him down. "Come on man, just the ocean you've lived by your whole life!"

"So-" the one on his right stuttered, mocking the stutter Ranboo actually got when he was nervous. "Sc sc sc sc scary!!!"

"Hey, isn't that your dad's boat?" The head pointed over to the dock where a nicer than average boat was.

The one on Ranboo's right gasped, smiling. "Yeah! And I just got my boating license!"

Ranboo struggled. He wouldn't doubt the boys could feel his heart beating through his wrists they were holding him by. "Come on guys, this is- isn't funny-"

"Shut up!" The one on his left pulled again, his grip tight. Ranbok wouldn't be surprised if it bruised later. "How far are you allowed to go out?"

"Fifteen miles," the one on his right grinned. "You think it'll help if we give him a floatie?"

The group laughed at the mediocre joke and dragged Ranboo over to the boat.

And... the rest was a blur. Ranboo was ashamed to say he barely even fought back, but as soon as he couldn't see the ocean floor he knew he was finished.

"Any last words?" The head held both his wrists, dangling him kver the side of the boat.

Since Ranboo couldn't think or get anything out on time, the bully let go, the freezing water flowing all around him. His joints felt achy from the cold, and he wasn't able to time his breaths with the waves or when his sparatic flapping got him above the water.

Ranboo saw the three stand on the boat, not driving away, as his vision went dark.

He felt his body drift, not knowing up from down, giving into exhaustion.

Drifting.

Drifting.

Drifting.

Sing... singing?

What sounded like a thousand voices sounded all around him. But it sounded like two voices played over and over again, maybe echoing in a cave. One sent tremors through Ranboo's chest, the other sounded like only dogs (or maybe whales, sense he was underwater) should be able to hear it.

He even felt himself trying to swim closer to where the voices could be coming from. In the back of his mind, he remembered the stories his parents told him about sirens, but luckily he wasn't a good enough swimmer to actually gain distance towards them.

Plus, sirens shouldn't be real.

Ranboo felt the water currents shift around him, and a new, less pleasant sound started. Like a garage door opening, or what a frog croaking might sound like if the listener was standing inside of its mouth.

He opened his eyes and was met with a glowing blue pair. Ranboo sucked in a breath-

He coughed, bubbles floating around him. His body instinctively tried to take another gasp of air, making him panic when it didn't work and ge was hyperventilating in WATER-

It didn't help that the... the THING in front of him had cupped its hands around him. It trilled and the water shifted again, but the one holding him wasn't moving.

WERE THERE TWO?!

Ranboo was forced against the palm of the creature's hand as he was pushed up to the surface of the water. There was still so much water though, and he was left choking on the scaley hand. Not that whatever was holding him would just eat him anyway.

"Tommy!" What the- "be careful! I don't think humans can be underwater as long as it was!"

"I know what I'm doing, Tubbo," the one holding Ranboo snapped. They could talk?! "I think I can... squeeze the water out of it?"

While Ranboo's vision was going purple, he could tell there were two large- very large figures looming over him. And lying in one's hand... it could crush him to death if it wasn't careful.

But it wasn't like Ranboo could STOP it.

Ranboo felt two claws on his back and stomach. The claws weren't long enough to straight up skewer him,but they'd leave bruises, maybe even bleeding with enough pressure.

Before Ranboo could protest, the claws of "Tommy" pressed into his back and stomach, pinching his fingers together. Ranboo spit up the water in his lungs violently, his throat felt torn and raw. He wanted to apologize for getting lung water all over the siren's hands, but he was still a little, ya know, IN SHOCK.

That sirens existed.

"Was that all of it? Check." Tommy held Ranboo like an awkward lanky ragdoll, like video of a man carrying around a ferret Ranboo once saw.

Now that his vision wasn't full of spots, Ranboo got a good look at what the giant fish siren things looked like. The one he was being held in front of- Tubbo- was a foresty light green with gold flecks all over. His eyes were a dark green, almost black, with a golden ring where the pupil must be. His fins were leaf like and his hair might be fluffy if it wasn't soaking wet. On top his head was a little tassel thing, glowing yellow against the overcast and rather dreary sky.

Turning around, the othersiren was also rather majestic for a beast that has his life in his hands. He was red and white, sort of like a Koi fish. This one also had golden flecks, and his hair was the same color. Instead of a tassel, this one's eyes glowed electric blue. In his worried expression, he beared sharp teeth. Tommy's fins were also flowier, more decorative.

"It still looks scared," Tubbo tilted his head. "Maybe that's cuz we're crowding it. What now?"

Ranboo weighed his options. Even if he knew how to swim he wouldn't out swim the sirens. And Tommy wasn't necessarily holding him TIGHT, but enough for it to be a struggle to escape.

Ranboo noticed himself hyperventilating, his throat was getting dried out from the salt. His ears were still ringing and the sirens were loud and he was trapped and never seeing his parents again and-

"It's breathing so fast-" Tommy said, with the wonder of a child. Suddenly, he cringed, releasing his grasp a little. "It's really scared, isn't it?"

Tubbo leaned in close, humming. Softly, gently... Ranboo's breathing synced up with the rhythm, and his heart slowed. Looking into the siren's eyes, he couldn't bring himself to believe that they would actually eat him.

"Can we drop it off at the docks?" Tommy asked. "I see humans there all the time."

Tubbo looked up at the sky, furrowing his.... equivalent of eyebrows. "It's mid-day... it's probably bustling with humans. We'd be spotted for sure."

"But we can't just leave it here!" Tommy groaned. "Anywhere else where other places we can drop it off where other humans can take it to safety?"

"Uhm-" Ranboo lifted his hand meekly, like he wanted to answer a question in class.

Both of the sirens snapped over to him, causing him to shrink back. Oh gosh what was he doing oh gosh oh gosh oh- "there's a cove that leads into the ocean. I'm pretty much the only person who goes there... you could drop me off at the cove? Maybe? Sorry-"

"You can talk!" Tubbo leaned in closer. His face was maybe a foot or two away from Ranboos body, he could smell the cold and salty breath. "I thought humans couldn't talk- at least definitely not MER- oh wow! Oh SHIT! Sorry dude, what's your name?"

"Ranboo-" He managed to get out, trying to keep the nervousness out of his voice. "And usually most humans don't like being called it. I'm a he."

"Oh okay! Sorry bossman!" Tubbo grinned, displaying pointed teeth like Tommy's. Ranboos breath became shaky as he closed in on himself.

"Tubbo!" Tommy scolded. "You're scaring him again! Come on-"

Tommy started singing like he was replacing words in a song he forgot, a bunch of las and doos and duns. It was somehow... comforting. Like Tubbos humming-

Oh right. Sirens. Duh.

Ranboo gave a dejected sigh. "Please just drop me off at the cove..."

"Yeah, of course," Tommy said softly. For a siren, his voice wasn't exactly serene. "I think me and Tubs know where your talking about..."

Tommy gave no warning as he started swimming, avoiding the coast of the town and through the back. He was being cradled close to Tommy's chest above water, and noticed Tubbo zooming past them. Ranboo appreciated that, Tommy holding him above water at the sacrifice of his patience.

After about an hour of seaspray and cool rushing winds flying past, Tommy circled in and swam into the cove where Tubbo was waiting beached on the sand. It was a sheer cliff with a sand beach at the bottom, clear waves. Not exactly the safest place, but Ranboo like the peace and quiet of it. This is the place he usually got closest to the water, everyday after school- or before the sun rises in the summer.

Tommy flopped on shore, his more human half supported by his elbows on the sand, and plopped Ranboo down onto the beach. "Will someone know where you are?"

"I know my way back to town..." Ranboo nodded. "Thank you both so much for your help, those bullies probably would have left ne to die."

"Bullies?" Tubbo sat up, looking down at Ranboo.

Ranboo trusted his feet in the sand awkwardly. "Yeah, they don't like me too much, and they stranded me at sea just now. Did you guys not see them?"

Tommy and Tubbo looked at eachother, an understanding between the two of them. Tubbobrested his head on the sand next to Ranboo. "Do you have any friends?"

Ranboo took a moment to think. Sure there were people he talked to... but he didn't know if any of then would call him their friend back. Ranbok shook his head.

Tommy nodded. "We don't either."

Ranboo frowned at this information. Why wouldn't anyone like them? Even as a human, Ranboo could tell these sirens were nothing but kind, going out of their way to save him, going out of their way to help a creature they didn't think of as equal. Imagine how nice they were to their supposed peers.

Ranboo didn't know what he was saying,but the words spilt out of his mouth. "Would you guys want to meet here before the sun rises every morning? To hang out? Because ya seem really cool and we're all lonely and-"

Ranboo stopped, looking up at the sirens. They both looked like lost kicked puppies being given a treat.

Tommy smiled. Ranboo felt too happy for him to be scared of the teeth. "Fuck yeah! We've got nothing better going on."

"It'll be nice to be around someone other than this screecher-" Tubbo rolled his eyes, brushing sand onto Tommy with his tail.

"I'll have you know I am a phenomenal singer-" Tommy hissed, pointing a finger at Tubbo. The other siren and Ranboo laughed at his angry rant.

Ranboo looked up at his new... friends? That was nice. His bew friends. Even if they were big and scary, he found his inhibitions melting as the day wore on, laughing and joking.

Eventually, the sky turned orange and Ranboo knew he had to go home before his parents got concerned, luckily his clothes had dried through the day.

The sirens dragged themselves back into the water, waving bye as they swam off. Ranboo watched their tails go up and down in the water as they got farther and farther away. Once he couldn't see them anymore, he began the hike up the cliff back into town.

Ranboo smiled, giddy. Friends. He could get used to that.

the type you bring home to mom ~ eddie kaspbrak;it chapter two

word count: 2361

request?: no

description: in which he finally brings his girlfriend home to his over protective mother, and it goes exactly as he thought it would

pairing: teen!eddie kasprak x female!reader

warnings: swearing, overbearing mother, derogatory name calling (i guess?), basically eddie’s mom just sucking

masterlist (one, two)

note: (y/n/p) = your parents’ names

I played with the hem of my dress as I walked up to the Kaspbrak household. I was regretting my choice in wardrobe, but it was too late to change now. I knew nothing would feel right anyways, I had already changed three times before I came over.

For the first time in our year long relationship, I was meeting Eddie’s mother. We had somehow managed to keep our relationship a secret for so long that I never felt like I had to meet her, and Eddie wasn’t exactly pushing for it either. As much as he loved his mom, he also knew she was manipulative and overbearing, and he often told me how he was afraid of his mom scaring me off because of these facts.

When the news eventually got out and travelled quickly through the small town of Derry, as gossip usually does, it got to Ms. Kaspbrak in no time. She immediately demanded to meet me, and Eddie set up a dinner at his house for the occasion.

Before I could even knock on the door, it swung open to reveal my tall boyfriend smiling down at me. Any tension I had melted away as I looked up at him, into those beautiful eyes that could calm me down whenever they were on me. He took my face in his hands and pulled me to kiss him. It was such a normal action that, at first, I leaned into it happily, until I realized the circumstances of my visit and quickly pushed him away.

“She’s not here,” he said, as if reading my worried thoughts. “She’s gone out to get some stuff for dinner.”

He stepped aside to let me step into the house. It wasn’t unfamiliar territory; Eddie and I had had many rendezvous there during the rare moments when his mom wasn’t home, but it felt wrong to be there on this occasion. I just wanted it to end already, and to go home or go for a long drive with Eddie.

“Come, sit,” he said, leading me to his living room. We sat close to one another on the couch, so close that we were just barley touching. Feeling his arm brush against mine sent sparks through me.

“How worried should I be?” I asked him, trying to remain as light as possible.

He sighed and shuffled in his seat. “I wish I could tell you not at all, but...”

He trailed off so I finished his sentence for him, “But it’s your mom.”

Eddie nodded. “But it’s my mom.”

One of his arms was around my waist. I hadn’t realized that the skirt of my dress had hiked up a little until the hand around my waist started to play with the hem, his fingertips brushing against my ass. His other hand touched my leg, starting lightly on my knee and then slowly travelling up my thigh till it stopped on my inner thigh. I shivered, wanting him to go further.

Most people who knew him would never believe that Eddie Kaspbrak, the hypochondriac, fast talking, former sheltered mama’s boy, would be absolutely mind blowing in bed, and constantly handsy whenever we were alone. I hadn’t even believed it until we got together, but man, Eddie knew how to make me feel absolutely amazing.

He leaned forward to kiss my neck, his fingers tracing circles in my inner thigh. I was shivering with anticipation and whimpers were escaping my lips. I could feel Eddie’s amused smirk against my neck as he placed another kiss there and lifted his head to look at me. He kissed my lips and his hand finally made its way further up my skirt.

Our moment was interrupted by the sound of a car door slamming. I practically jumped to the other side of the couch, touching my neck in hopes that he hadn’t accidentally left hickies there.

“You’re good,” he said, understanding what I had been doing.

The front door opened and I suddenly felt paralyzed. I wasn’t sure if I should stand up or stay sat down, if I should move even further away from Eddie or stay exactly where I was. In the end, I stayed frozen like a deer in headlights as his mom rounded the corner, arms full of grocery bags.

“Oh,” she said when her eyes landed on me. “Is this...her?”

There was a slight leer to the way she said “her”, which made me want to squirm under her intense gaze.

“Mom,” Eddie said, a partial warning tone in his voice, “this is (Y/N), my girlfriend.”

“It’s nice to meet you, Ms. Kaspbrak,” I said. “Do you, um, need any help with - ”

“No,” she cut me off. “I have it. You’re early.”

“I told her this is when to get here,” Eddie defended. “You wouldn’t tell me exactly when to invite her over.”

“Well, this is hardly dinner time,” his mother huffed. “It’ll take me a while to get dinner ready.”

“I can help,” I offered again.

“No,” she said, sharply, which told me that was the end of the matter.

I shrunk down in my spot on the couch.

“Mom,” Eddie snapped again.

She glared at me before turning to her son, trying to soften her expression for him. “I’ll let you know when the food is ready. For now...stay here.”

When she disappeared into the kitchen, Eddie immediately moved to sit next to me and took my hand in his.

“I’m okay,” I assured him. “I’ll get through it. It’s just dinner then we’re done, right?”

He nodded, but I could see the worry on his face still.

A while later, Ms. Kaspbrak called to tell us dinner was ready. She had made sure to place everything so that Eddie and I were sat at the heads of the table, far apart from one another, while she was sat between us. Eddie and I shared a look before sitting in our designated spots.

Dinner started with awkward silence besides our cutlery against the plates. I tried to keep my attention on my plate, but every so often I’d glance up at the Kaspbraks to see Eddie nervously glancing between me and his mother, and his mom just glaring daggers at me. The nervousness I was feeling took away my appetite, but I felt like I had to eat everything to make a good impression, if that was even possible.

“So,” Ms. Kaspbrak said, drawing our attention to her, “(Y/N). Your parents are (Y/P/N), right?”

She already knew the answer to this question. I had grown up in Derry, where everyone knew everyone. There was a reason she was asking, and I had a feeling I already knew what that reason was.

“They are, yeah,” I responded.

“And they’re divorced, aren’t they?”

“Mom!” Eddie groaned.

“It’s just a question, Eddie,” his mom said.

“It’s okay,” I said with a shrug. “I don’t mind talking about it. That’s kind of old news anyways. They divorced when I was 10, dad moved to the next town over and mom got full custody of me.”

“That doesn’t seem like a very stable upbringing,” Ms. Kaspbrak commented. “I’m sure it’s taken such a toll on you, you must’ve decided to rebel somehow.”

Eddie put his face in his hands, officially admitting defeat on trying to stop his mother.

“Actually it wasn’t anything like that,” I said. “Mom and dad stayed pretty civil. There wasn’t any big fight or anything, just an agreement that they’re better off not being married. When dad moved he made sure to stay in constant contact, and comes to visit all the time or I’d go to visit him. Mom always made sure I had a roof over my head and food on the table. They both love me unconditionally, even if they’re not together.”

Ms. Kaspbrak sat back in her seat, a sour look on her face. “Well...regardless, it’s just not right to be raised by a single mother.”

Feeling a bit brave, I raised an eyebrow at her. “Eddie was raised by a single mother.”

“That’s different. My husband died, he didn’t decide to abandon me and Eddie.”

“My dad didn’t abandon us, he’s still very much a part of our lives.”

She ignored me and continued to eat. I looked across the table at Eddie to see him avoiding all eye contact with either of us as he pushed his food around on his plate. As if feeling my gaze, he looked up at me. I gave him a small smile to try and indicate that I wasn’t upset with him. I wanted him to know everything was going to be okay, even if I didn’t fully believe it myself.

“How many boys have you had sex with, (Y/N)?”

The question caught me off guard and I nearly choked on the food I had just put in my mouth.

“Jesus Christ, mom!” Eddie snapped.

“Don’t take the Lord’s name in vein, Edward,” his mother chastised him.

“You can’t just ask something like that, mom, that’s none of your business.”

“Of course it’s my business. I need to make sure my son isn’t dating a slut. I remember you were friends with Beverly March before she moved away, and trust me, I heard all sorts of stories about her. Anyone who would hang around with her must be somewhat similar.”

The mention of the untrue bullshit that used to be spread about Bev made the anger within me bubble over. I was seeing red as I looked up at Ms. Kaspbrak, and I was ready to pounce.

“Actually, your son took my virginity, and I took his,” I told her. “And we have sex quite a lot, sometimes upstairs in his bedroom when you’re not home. Although, for someone who says he was a virgin I don’t know how much I believe it. Eddie has done things that I don’t even think the most experienced of people could do.”

If he was upset with me for saying all of this, Eddie’s face didn’t show it. He was sipping on his water, trying to hide the smug smile that broke out across his face.

Ms. Kaspbrak’s face turned blood red before she rose from the table. “Get the fuck out of my house!”

“Gladly,” I said, abandoning my dinner to quickly leave the shitty situation.

“And don’t you dare come anywhere near my son again, or else I will have the cops on you!” she threatened.

I stopped and turned back to face her. “For what? For dating your son? For showing him that there’s someone who actually cares about him without manipulating him? For finally cutting the cord that you’ve had wrapped around his neck since he was born? Ms. Kaspbrak, I understand that you’re afraid to lose your son the way you lost your husband, but being a manipulative bitch who forced him to think he had illnesses he didn’t have for years and insulting his girlfriend in front of him is not the way to keep him around. Eddie is 18 years old, he’s an adult. He can do whatever he wants, which includes dating whoever he wants and leaving this hell hole that you have the audacity to call a home. The day that you finally accept that just might be the day that Eddie finally considers you to be an actual mother.”

And with that, I decided not to overstay my welcome and left.

I was only a few feet away from Eddie’s house when I heard him calling after me. I slowed my pace just enough that he could catch up with me, but didn’t completely stop. I wanted to put as much distance between myself and the Kaspbrak house as I could.

“I’m sorry,” I sighed as he fell in step next to me.

“For what?” Eddie asked. “I should be the one apologizing to you.”

“You warned me on how she would be, and I still let her get to me,” I said. “I probably made having to live there a whole lot harder.”

“It was hard to begin with, (Y/N). Nothing could make it harder than what it was,” he told me. “What you said, it was all true. Mom needed to hear that. Doesn’t mean she liked hearing it, or that she’ll actually accept it, but she needed to hear it none the less.”

“I guess I could’ve said it nicer,” I said. “Or at least not included details of our sex life.”

Eddie awkwardly chuckled. “Yeah, could’ve done without mom knowing I’m a sex god.”

I gave him a look and playfully nudged him. “I never said you were a sex god.”

“Eddie has done things that I don’t even think the most experienced of people could do I believe were your exact words.”

“I only said that to make her more upset.”

“So you’re saying I’m bad at sex?”

I pushed him again. “Eddie!”

He laughed and put an arm around my waist. “I appreciate the compliment either way. And I hope you know how much I love you.”

I smiled up at him and leaned into his touch. “I love you, too.”

We walked in silence for a while and, before I knew it, we were at my house. We stopped and turned to face each other.

“Want to stay over tonight?” I asked. “I figure going home isn’t exactly the best option right now.”

“It’s not,” he agreed. “Will your mom be okay with it?”

“Of course she will, she loves you. She’ll probably even cover for you if your mom calls.”

“I take it back, I don’t love you. I love your mom.”

“And I take back my offer. Go sleep on the streets.”

I took off for my front door with Eddie hot on my trail. I tried to open it and lock him out before he caught up to me, but of course his long legs gave him an advantage. He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me away from the door, both of our laughs ringing out through the otherwise quiet neighborhood.
