Yandere knight who wants you instead of the princess.
Sequel here
Dead dove Do not Eat Tw. For noncon, MDNI, Fem pov
Yandere knight who has been training in the palace for a very long time. It's an honor for a commoner like him to even set foot into the castle walls, so he works earnestly.
Yandere knight who's been catching glimpses of not only the lovely princess throughout the years, but her handmaidens as well. You're a daughter of a somewhat lesser noble house, and therefore you have essentially been given to the royal family until you're eventually married off to another courtier.
But of all the noble ladies, who often ignore him, he finds you to be the most approachable and kind to him and the other squires. He's developed a bit of a crush on you over the years, and he eventually found it in himself to express his feelings. They were innocent and pure then, and he stood there blushing and awkward waiting for you to accept or deny. He would've taken a no from you. Really, he would have.
But then that pompous bitch got in the way.
The princess had you pulled away by her other attendants before you could answer, and she all but sneered at him.
"My maids are not for common rife like you to sully," she spat, a look of disdain carved on her delicate features.
Yandere knight who was deployed to the battlefront soon after. He spent years in misery knowing it was that royal woman's meddling that had both sent him here and stopped him from knowing how you truly felt.
Yandere knight who carved through foe upon foe with the flash of his sword while thinking of you. He would wipe blood from his face and wonder what it would take to have you. He resolves to become so renowned that he could have you and the respect he deserved all those years ago anyways.
Yandere knight who comes back as the hero of the nation. A parade is thrown for him upon his return, and flowers are thrown at his feet by the masses of people. He is awarded a noble title, a duke (impressive), a territory of land to manage, and the blessing to have the hand of any eligible lady in the land from the king.
The implication was for him to go for the princess, sitting there in a gown befitting of an engagement party. She wasn't the heir to the throne, and having a young, impressionable Duke to have and father a potential crown prince or princess was certainly a draw for her to act so sweet and lovely despite her previous attitudes. He had to use all the will in his body to hide his disdainful glare towards her. Instead, he strode up with a near giddy grin, breezed past the waiting royal, and knelt before you.
"[Name], I shall have you as my wife," He says with a beaming smile. You try to protest, but he's already sweeping you into his arms. The king seems surprised by his choice, but as he stares between Yandere Knight, lovestruck and beaming, and you, squirming and utterly shocked, he realizes that he cannot simply go back on his word. The king waves his hand, and your fate is sealed.
Yandere knight feels bad for not giving you a proper wedding. In fact, he feels bad about not taking you to your new home before he's pulling up your skirts. He's a dog, he knows, but you're just so tempting now that you're all his. He shoving you down onto the plush upholstery of the carriage seats, and you let out a startled cry.
Yandere knight who cannot claim he's chivalrous. He wishes he could, but he loves the way your breasts look pushed up so tightly in the laced bodice of yours. He lets out a groan, petting your hair and shushing you as you whimper under his wandering touch. Button after button becomes undone.
"Love, you'll never wear such stifling clothing again. You hear me? All robes and lace from now on. None of this nonsense," He murmurs into your skin. He pulled your corset and chemise from your body, and he pressed fervent kisses to the crook of your neck. He grasps at your breasts, kneading them experimentally. He's had time to experience women on the battlefield. A fling or two in some field on the outskirts of a freshly liberated village. He would think of you the whole time and imagine what he was latching his lips around the stiff peak of your nipple while a random girl cried out underneath him. But this was real. Your warmth beneath his much heavier form was on of the most beautiful feeling he had ever had the pleasure of witnessing.
He parted your legs, and he could feel you shy away from him. He laughed. As if you had a choice. He knew you would love him eventually, but for now you can't blame him for how ravenous he was as he felt between your shaking, parted legs. He smirked as his lips met yours. His fingers slid against your folds, gathering slick arousal on his digits with a curious hum. He grinds his thumb against your clit as he slowly pushes his way into your warm, spongy walls.
"Oh? Is it good there? Or here? Where, love? You gotta use your words," He teases and licks the tears rolling down your cheeks, peppering your soft skin with kisses. He feels you pulse and stretch around his hand, and he relishes the way your back arches when he curls his fingers just right against that sweet little spot. Desperate noises tumble out of you, and he smiles.
He pulls his fingers out, and you cry out at the sudden sensation. Your chest is heaving with small moans, and your pretty pussy is drooling onto the carriage cushions. He pushes your legs up to your chest for a better grip, and his shudders at the way your twitching feels against the head of his cock.
Yandere knight knows that, as he thrusts into you, he's going to enjoy the luxury of finally having you both under his body and under his control.

♯┆𝐅𝐀𝐊𝐄𝐃 𝐈𝐓 .ᐟ — 𝐁𝐀𝐊𝐔𝐆𝐎 𝐊𝐀𝐓𝐒𝐔𝐊𝐈
𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲: You’ve faked it with every guy you’ve ever worked with. Every scene, every moan, convincing, but never real. Then Bakugo happens. One scene turns into something else entirely and now you can’t stop thinking about him, and you’re starting to wonder if it was ever just a scene.
𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬: 18+ content. smut, oral (f receiving), overstimulation, fingering, rough sex, praise, light degradation, dirty talk, light choking, possessiveness, semi-public sex (on set), creampie, light aftercare, porn industry setting, blurred emotional lines, language.
PART TWO
You weren’t nervous. Not really.
You’d done this a hundred times. With all the big names—Keigo, who liked to make everything a performance; Touya, who had a thing for whispering filth like he was telling you a secret; even that wild three-way with Shindo and Hitoshi that still topped your subscriber requests.
So no, this wasn’t nerves.
This was something else.
Maybe it was the name on the call sheet. Bakugo Katsuki.
He was the guy. The one who didn’t just act like a powerhouse on camera—he was one. Every scene he was in got clipped, shared, memed, thirsted after. The kind of raw intensity people couldn’t stop watching. Or jerking off to.
You included. Not that you’d admit it out loud.
Okay. Maybe once. When you were wine drunk and swiping through his catalog. Maybe twice. Maybe more.
You’d watched him wreck other girls. Watched the way his hands gripped hips like he owned them. The way his mouth dragged moans out like he knew exactly what buttons to push. You always told yourself it was research. Prep for the inevitable scene.
Now here you were, in the makeup chair, legs crossed, phone in hand, trying not to stare at the clock. You didn’t even get this antsy for award shows.
You shifted your hips a little. God, you needed to get a grip.
“Five minutes, Y/N,” someone called from set.
You gave a casual wave, sliding your phone into your bag. Cool. Easy. You’d done this before. You were the girl. The one who always looked good, always knew her angles, always gave the most convincing moans. No one ever knew they were fake.
No one needed to.
You only did this for the money. Never caught feelings, never chased orgasms. You could finish on your own time. You always did.
But when you walked onto set and saw him—arms crossed, shirtless, sweatpants hanging low, like the cameras were already rolling—your breath hitched.
And then his eyes locked on you.
Bakugo didn’t smile. He smirked. All sharp teeth and slow drags of his gaze. Like he was already undressing you in his head.
“‘Bout time,” he said, voice low and cocky.
You raised a brow. “Don’t get cocky, Dynamight.”
He stepped forward, close enough that you had to tilt your chin up. He smelled like something spicy—cologne, sweat, and danger. His smirk widened.
“Too late, princess. I’ve seen your work. Bet I could make you actually cum.”
You laughed. It came out a little shaky. “You think you’re the first guy to say that?”
“Nah,” he said, brushing a strand of hair from your cheek like he had every right to touch you already. “But I’ll be the first one to prove it.”
You rolled your eyes, but your stomach flipped anyway. Cocky bastard. You weren’t new to bold claims—hell, you’d heard that same line from half the industry. But something about the way he said it, all low and sure like it was a promise, made your pulse skip.
You turned away before he could see the heat rising to your cheeks.
The scene started like any other.
Lights. Camera. Action.
You were on your back, legs spread, eyes half-lidded. Your moans were perfectly timed, your hands moving just how they were supposed to.
Bakugo was above you, teasing at first, fingers trailing up your thigh, smirking like he had all the time in the world. You tried to stay in character. Tried to focus.
But then his fingers actually slipped inside, and holy shit—
You bit your lip.
That felt… different.
His fingers weren’t just thrusting. They curled. Pressed. Rubbed against the spot you usually had to hunt for on your own. And when he looked down at you, his eyes weren’t blank or performative. They were locked in. Watching every twitch of your mouth. Every hitch in your breath.
“You always fake it this early?” he muttered under his breath, so low only you could hear.
Your stomach flipped. Your thighs tensed.
“What?” you managed, voice barely a whisper.
Bakugo chuckled. It rumbled low in his chest.
“You’re tight,” he said, dragging his thumb over your clit just right. “But you ain’t clenching like you mean it. Not yet.”
And then he sucked on your inner thigh.
Not for the camera. Not for show.
For you.
Your back arched on instinct.
“Relax,” he murmured, lips brushing against your skin. “I got you.”
And you hated—hated—how badly you wanted to believe him.
He didn’t start slow.
He licked into you like he was starving, like he’d been starving, and this was his first meal in weeks. His tongue was hot, wet, relentless—flicking against your clit in firm, practiced strokes that had your legs trembling before you could even bite back the first moan.
You weren’t acting.
Not anymore.
Your hands gripped the sheets beneath you, white-knuckled, and your lips parted like you wanted to say something, but all that came out was a broken little gasp.
“Oh fuck—”
He hummed against you. Smug bastard.
“Don’t hold back now, princess,” he murmured, dragging his tongue up your slit slow, then latching back onto your clit like he owned it. “Let’s show ‘em what it looks like when it’s real.”
You whimpered. Whimpered. You didn’t do that.
Not even when Keigo pulled out the toys. Not even when Touya did that breathy thing in your ear.
This was different.
You tried—tried—to keep it together, but his mouth moved like he already knew every inch of you. Tongue swirling, lips sucking, fingers still working inside you like he wasn’t giving you a fucking choice. He knew exactly where to press, where to flick, when to slow down and when to pick it back up again.
And it wasn’t even for the camera.
It was for you.
Your stomach coiled, tight. Too tight.
Your breathing hitched. Your thighs started to shake. You were going to—
“No,” you gasped, voice panicked, eyes fluttering. “Don’t—fuck—I’m—”
“Yeah you are,” Bakugo growled, pulling back just long enough to look at you. His mouth was wet with you, lips swollen, eyes wild. “C’mon. Don’t fake it. Just fuckin’ let go.”
And then he sucked—hard—right over your clit.
Your body snapped.
The orgasm hit like a wave crashing through you, ripping the air from your lungs. You didn’t fake it. You couldn’t. Your moans were raw, broken, punched out of you like the wind got knocked from your chest. You shook, hands flying to his hair, thighs locking around his head as your back arched off the bed.
And he didn’t stop.
Kept going. Licking, pressing, dragging your orgasm out like he wanted to ruin you.
You came again, again, before you’d even come down from the first.
Your voice cracked. “Bakugo, I—I can’t—”
“Yeah you can,” he muttered, not letting up for a second. “You’re doin’ so fuckin’ good. Look at you.”
You couldn’t. Your vision blurred. Your whole body was buzzing, on fire, shaking like you’d lost control of every single nerve ending. It wasn’t supposed to be like this. You didn’t lose it like this.
But god, he was still licking you through it, fingers still curling right there, his voice low and wrecked as he talked you through it like he wanted to brand the sound of your orgasm into your memory forever.
“You gonna cum for me again?” he asked, voice gravel and heat, eyes flicking up to meet yours.
You nodded, desperate, lost.
“Say it,” he growled. “Say it’s real.”
Your lips trembled.
“It’s real,” you gasped, breathless, broken. “It’s real, fuck I’m gonna—”
And just like that, you came undone again. Loud. Messy. Helpless.
Bakugo didn’t stop until your hips were twitching, your thighs were soaked, and your moans turned into soft little sobs of overstimulation.
The lights above you still burned hot. The cameras were still rolling. But everything else felt far away—muted, blurry, unreal. Your legs were jelly. Your chest rose and fell like you’d just run a marathon. And Bakugo was still between them, licking his lips like he’d just tasted something forbidden and planned to do it again.
Your brain was still fogged when he stood, stretching to his full height.
Then his hands were back on you, big and warm and so sure, gripping your waist like he owned it. He flipped you over effortlessly, face down, ass up, skin still hot and damp with sweat. Your thighs trembled when they spread open again, already overstimulated and soaked.
Bakugo slid his hands up your back. Slow. Possessive.
“You feel that?” he murmured, leaning over you, his cock grinding against your ass with lazy pressure. “That twitch in your legs? That little shake?”
You nodded weakly, eyes fluttering.
“That’s mine now.”
Your breath caught as he pulled his hips back. You barely had time to process before the thick head of his cock was pressing against your entrance—hot, heavy, and already wet from you.
“You ready?” he asked, but it wasn’t a question. It was a warning.
Then he pushed in.
Slow. All the way to the hilt. Letting you feel every inch. Stretching you open, filling you to the fucking brim. You choked on a moan, fingers gripping the sheets like your life depended on it.
He didn’t move at first. Just stayed there, buried deep inside you, letting your pussy throb around him.
“Goddamn,” he muttered, hips flexing. “So fuckin’ tight. Can feel you squeezing me already.”
You were. He hadn’t even started moving yet and you were clenching around him like you didn’t want him to leave.
Then—he moved.
A slow drag out. A sharp thrust back in. Deep. Deeper. Your mouth dropped open. No sound came out.
“That the spot?” he murmured, hips rolling again, hitting the same angle, slow and deliberate.
You nodded, gasping.
“You better fuckin’ tell me when you’re close,” he growled, pace still maddeningly slow. “I wanna feel it. I wanna hear it.”
He reached around and pressed two fingers against your clit, rubbing soft, teasing circles that made your arms give out. You dropped to your elbows, back arching like he’d wired you for pleasure.
Then he started really fucking you.
Not fast. Not rough. Just deep. Every. Single. Stroke. Reaching places that made your eyes roll back. His hips snapped forward with just enough force to jolt you up the bed, his fingers never leaving your clit.
You moaned into the mattress, voice high and broken.
“That’s it,” he breathed. “That’s the fuckin’ sound I wanted.”
You were spiraling. Every thrust, every rub, every low growl in your ear sent you closer to the edge.
“Bakugo, I—I’m gonna—”
“Yeah?” he grunted, hips picking up speed, still hitting that spot that made your toes curl. “Then fuckin’ cum for me.”
You shattered.
You clenched around him so tight he groaned, biting down on a curse as your body trembled under him. Your moan punched out of your throat, high and wrecked and real.
But he didn’t stop.
“Oh fuck—fuck, wait—” you gasped, hips twitching as he kept thrusting, dragging you straight into another orgasm with no break.
He leaned over you, voice low in your ear. “Not fakin’ now, huh?”
You shook your head wildly, whining into the sheets.
“Bet you never came like this on set before,” he said, voice rough. “Bet no one’s ever made you cum like this off it either.”
He wrapped a hand in your hair and pulled gently, just enough to lift your head.
“Say it.”
You could barely speak. “No one. No one but you.”
“Damn right.”
His thrusts sped up, rougher now, deeper. The sound of skin slapping against skin filled the room, joined by your wrecked little gasps, your whines, the slick mess between your thighs.
“You hear that?” he said, low and smug. “That fuckin’ sound your pussy’s makin’? That’s all me.”
You whimpered, and he slapped your ass—not hard, just enough to make you clench again.
“Ohhh, fuck,” he groaned, hips stuttering. “You’re gonna make me cum just like that.”
And then he slammed into you. Hard. Once. Twice. Over and over. You screamed—literally—as another orgasm crashed through you, your body locking up, eyes rolling back.
“Fuckfuckfuck—” he gasped, and then pulled out just in time to stroke himself twice, thick ropes of cum painting your back, his voice ragged as he came with a low, wrecked growl.
You collapsed.
No faking. No poses. Just you, ruined on the sheets, shaking and soaked and completely fucking gone.
Bakugo dropped to his knees behind you, panting. He grabbed a towel off the edge of the bed, wiped you down gently—so gently it made your chest ache.
“You good?” he asked, voice quiet now. Careful.
You nodded, still dizzy. Still pulsing. Still floating.
“I came so many times I lost count,” you whispered, dazed.
He chuckled, cocky and low. “Good.”
You rolled onto your side, trying to catch your breath.
“That was supposed to be a scene,” you mumbled. “That felt like a fucking movie.”
Bakugo leaned in, kissed your bare shoulder, then smirked against your skin.
“Baby,” he murmured, “that was just the warm-up.”
You snorted softly, still breathless. “You’re insane.”
“You love it.”
Your legs were still trembling, body wrecked and used and buzzing. But something else was humming under your skin now. That ache in your core—not from need, but from power.
You rolled over, slow and deliberate, dragging your fingers down his chest. His eyes tracked every movement.
“Get on your back,” you whispered.
Bakugo raised a brow but didn’t argue. He leaned back against the pillows, smirking like he thought he still had the upper hand.
His hair was damp with sweat. His lips were swollen. His chest rose and fell in hard, uneven breaths. You’d never seen him like this.
Your grin widened.
You leaned down and kissed him—soft, slow, way too good to be acting. Then you sat back, hips lifting off him, and slid down his body.
“Where you goin’?” he rasped, half-laughing, half-breathless.
You looked up at him from between his thighs, eyes dark, lips parted. “Didn’t say I was done with you yet.”
His breath caught.
You licked up the underside of his cock—slow, teasing, wet. He twitched in your hand, muscles tensing as you took your time, letting your mouth work him like you had something to prove. And maybe you did. Maybe you just wanted to see him fall apart the way he’d done to you.
You looked up, mouth wrapped around the tip, and saw it—the crack in his composure. The soft clench of his jaw. The desperate twitch in his thigh. The helpless sound he made when you sucked just right.
“You’re so sensitive, you’re not gonna last,” you said around him, lips brushing the head.
His fingers gripped the sheets. “Don’t—don’t stop.”
You didn’t.
You kept going, messy and perfect, tongue flicking and mouth sinking deeper, until he was panting, until he was cursing under his breath, until his hips jerked off the bed.
And then you pulled off, slow, dragging your tongue over the tip one last time.
He made a noise—wrecked.
You climbed back up his body, straddling his hips again. His hands found your thighs like muscle memory, gripping tight.
You leaned down, lips brushing his jaw.
“Beg.”
He froze. “What?”
You rolled your hips once, just enough to feel the slide of his cock against your slick entrance.
“Say it,” you whispered. “Tell me you want it.”
Bakugo swallowed hard. His voice was low, rough. “I want it.”
You licked the shell of his ear, teasing. “Not good enough.”
His hands trembled where they held you. Then he growled, breath hot.
“Please.”
You stilled.
“What was that?”
He gritted his teeth. Looked up at you like he hated how much he meant it.
“Please,” he repeated. “I want you. Need you. Fuck, I’ll say whatever you want—just ride me.”
You smiled. Real. Slow. Lazy and smug.
Then you sank down on him—deep, wet, tight—and his whole body arched beneath you, a broken moan punching out of his throat like you’d ripped it from his chest.
His hands flew to your hips.
You rode him slow. Sweet. All control. And when he finally came again—loud, raw, completely undone—you kissed him through it. Held him through it.
And when he whispered your name afterward, soft and stunned, like he didn’t know what just hit him
You smiled. Because for once, it wasn’t just acting.
Neither of you moved right away. His arms were still around you, chest rising and falling under your cheek, skin damp with sweat, muscles twitching beneath your fingers. Your heart was still beating too fast, and so was his.
Eventually, though, you had to get up. Had to move. The spell didn’t break, exactly—it just faded enough to remember where you were, who you were, what this was supposed to be.
You pulled on your robe in silence, legs still shaking slightly, and glanced at him across the bed. He sat up slow, pushing his hair back, watching you with something unreadable in his eyes. Like maybe he had more to say, but didn’t know how. Or didn’t think he should.
You hesitated.
So did he.
“Um…I’ll see you around,” you said, trying to make it sound casual, even though your voice came out a little too soft.
“Yeah,” he said, standing and reaching for his clothes. “Guess you will.”
Your stomach twisted, weirdly tight, but you smiled anyway. You nodded once, turned, and walked off set without looking back.
You didn’t see the way he watched you go.
Didn’t see the way his fingers flexed like he wanted to reach for you.
Didn’t hear the low, quiet fuck that slipped from under his breath when the door finally shut behind you.
You got home and didn’t even shower right away.
You peeled off your clothes slow, every muscle sore in the best possible way, and collapsed into bed wearing nothing but an oversized hoodie and your post-fuck glow. Your thighs ached. Your voice was half-gone. Your lips were still swollen.
You looked wrecked.
You felt worse.
And yet somehow, the only thing you could think about was him. The way he’d looked at you. The way he sounded saying your name. The way his hands had held you after like he wasn’t ready to let go.
You tried to distract yourself. Pulled up the scene, freshly posted not even an hour ago.
It already had thousands of likes. Hundreds of comments. More than anything you’d dropped in months.
You scrolled.
StepOnMeY/N: Holy shit, that was unreal.
BbyBakuGo: not y/n faking with everyone but bakugo
ToyasToy: Was that real? Tell me that was real.
It was.
You scrolled further.
KeigoOfficial: I feel personally offended. Gonna have to step my game up. Rematch y/n?
TouyaTodo: faked it? With me? damn. i must be losing my edge. hit me up when you wanna make it real doll.
You smirked.
Your DM notifications were blowing up. People you’d worked with. People you hadn’t. Everyone suddenly curious. Hungry. Competitive.
Your stomach flipped. It was fun. It was flattering. But none of it hit quite the same.
Then you saw it.
BakugoK: Already need more from my favorite girl.
You stared at it.
Read it once.
Twice.
A third time, just to make sure it was real.
Your breath caught in your throat. Your fingers went numb. You sat up in bed, heart pounding in your chest like it was trying to escape. Because what the fuck did that mean?
You clicked on his profile. Double checked that it was him.
It was.
No emoji. No game. Just a single comment that said everything and nothing all at once.
Already need more.
Favorite girl.
You slammed your laptop shut and screamed into your pillow. You kicked your feet like a schoolgirl. You laughed—hysterical, breathless, completely losing your mind.
Then you opened your laptop, stared at the comment again, and whispered out loud to no one
“Oh my god.”
Because yeah—you’d done this a hundred times. But this one was different.

Getting jealous as Sevika's girlfriend…
༇༇༇
༇༇༇
Look, we all know this lady gets around. Brothel or not, she's big and she's strong and she looks good. She's gonna be pretty experienced no matter when you meet her and get with her.
But once you two are together? Oh baby, there's nobody more devoted. Even if she doesn't say how much she cares, Sevika always shows you what type of person she is. And loyal, she definitely is.
Go ahead and try to ask her- pettily, childishly- if you're not the only pretty thing warming her bed. She'll shoot you a withering look as she tells you with all the unshakeable affection in her big, guarded heart, "I haven't even looked at any other woman since we got together, you ass."
A love confession as good as any!
In truth, you know you don't have to worry about Sevi's eyes straying. You know it in your heart. But you know that still doesn't stop others from looking, or even talking to her.
And sometimes all the present conditions just make it far too easy for your most unfounded insecurities to seem all too real. The way she can be so careful, so guarded about showing you affection in public has been a sensitive issue between you two for a while.
I HC that she's not the type to have you perched on her lap while she plays cards with the guys or anything like that. She's too protective, too possessive herself. Why should anybody get to see you all pretty like that?
But perhaps more importantly, she doesn't want to treat you the same way she treated her more… casual partners. Whether that may be right or wrong, it's how she makes a point of how different you are from her past flames. You're not just some pretty thing to prop up (although you are her pretty thing). You're the woman she's chosen, and that chose her back.
Obviously, it doesn't always translate that way. Sometimes, it just makes her seem cold. Again, whether it's right or wrong.
Maybe you were feeling extra sensitive that night, maybe she was being extra detached, but it was probably the most opportune time for outside forces to make it worse.
You're sitting at the bar chatting with Ran to try and take your mind off things when you see, out of the corner of your eye, some bitch sliding up next to your woman with a whiskey tumbler in hand.
Sevika doesn't even look up as she takes the offered drink. Your brain honestly shuts off then, ignorant to the way when a hand slides over her shoulders and she finally looks at the woman, Sevika jerks away like she'd been burned.
It happens so quickly, and you were already feeling like shit that particular night that you don't even go to confront. Ran had been ready to wrangle you back from killing someone, so she's surprised when you just… leave. You storm out of the bar, not hearing the "shit, doll, no…" that Sevika mutters under her breath as she stands to follow you.
The glare she gives the girl could win awards. "You better hope she tells me not to kill you," she growls, jutting a finger in the girl's face before leaving.
The guys she plays cards with every week swivel on the girl once Sevika leaves, throwing their cards up and bemoaning the "goddamn homewrecker!"
You hear her call your name almost immediately after you're out the door. "Baby, stop, you know that was-"
"I know that was what?" Sevika stops in her tracks when you swivel on her. Her eyes are wide, taken aback by how firm your voice is.
…Where'd you been hiding that lower register?
"It was a mistake, I thought it was you-" "You didn't even bother to look!" "Yeah, 'cause I thought you were bringing me a drink like you always do!"
She doesn't push back against you too hard because she knows it's her mistake, dumb and unintentional as the harm may be. She lets you yell, picks out the deeper hurt from your words and the why.
And when you're done, and the tears start to well up, that's when she closes the distance. She wraps her human arm around your shoulders, hiding your vulnerability with a subtle shrug of her cape halfway over you.
"Listen to me, woman." She cups your face with her human hand, smirking slightly at the surprised laugh you let out.
"You're the only fuckin' thing I see. Okay? The only damn one. That won't happen again."
Sevika didn't ever apologize, not really. But she did make promises that she never broke.
"…So do you want her dead?"
"Nah. I can't even blame her, I'd homewreck too if I didn't already have you."
"Ha! Your call, doll."

I feel like Bruce Wayne projects the kind of amiable playboy 'fun' vibe that he'd be the type of celebrity that certain interviewers feel comfortable surprising with puppies.
You know the kind of shows I mean.
The late-night talk show situations where they're making benign small talk with their smiling guest, and there's a segment where animals get brought out, usually to talk about some sort of ecological relief effort.
So you're watching your trash TV talk show late at night, and you get to watch billionaire pretty boy Bruce Wayne be begrudgingly talked into holding a (relatively) harmless creature which inevitably gets a lot of delighted shrieks from the audience as it starts being a lot more active than the handler promised. And to his credit, Bruce doesn't flinch, he doesn't freak out. But his eyes are a little wide, and his voice a little tight as the smile on his face takes on a slight rictus quality before he's inevitably rescued by an apologetic handler who is also laughing because they all know there was no real danger, it was just funny to put Bruce, who is an undeniable good sport and already laughing along, out of his comfort zone for the sake of charity.
Meanwhile, up in the Justice League headquarters, several founding members of the League are wondering how fast they can get a fake Oscar award shipped to the space station because fuck off. Absolutely fuck off, Bruce. Where the fuck did he study? Juilliard? (Probably.)
(Clark ends up going to a novelty store during the commercial break. It's faster than trying to get anything shipped, even with the infrastructure Bats built for them. He finds it several days later taped to his console in a conspicuously empty briefing room. It's gaudy and awful, the words "Best Actor" engraved on the plaque. No one's around to see him smile. No one comments when it vanishes. Everyone thinks it's been yeeted out an airlock. Dick absolutely comments when it shows up in the manor, stashed in one of the trophy cases that sprung up for all the bat kids' school awards. Bruce has no idea how it got there. Must have been Alfred. (It was not.))
Anyway, consider, for your amusement, Bruce Wayne getting highjacked on The Gotham Toight Show with a handful of wriggling puppies and, for a split second, not having to pretend he's delighted to be there.

the oscars- o.piastri



꩜ summary: you bring your own oscar to the oscar's!
꩜ pairing: married! oscar piastri x actress! fem! reader
꩜ a/n: just realised i never posted this and it has been sitting in my drafts for over a month and a half ish lol
I want you to come with me.
Those words had run through his head like a fucking jack-hammer for weeks. What did that even entail? Acquiring a tux, sure. He could do that. Learn all the names of the people he could potentially meet, any celebrities or old co-stars he’d probably met but didn’t remember. Again, he could do that. Sit beside you all night and let you be your wonderful self as he got a first class seat and bragging rights about the fact that he was yours, he did that all day everyday.
So why did this feel so different? He’d been to award shows before. Not the award show, but motorsports ones. You’d come as his date. The world knew about you two. He’d gone to the BAFTAs with you one year. He should be fine. He knows he’s just there to hold your hand all night and make sure you don’t forget to eat something, but this just feels… different. This was the Oscars. The one night all of Hollywood steps out in their very best, hoping to get something back. And you were nominated in 3 categories.
“Fix your bowtie,” Hattie fussed over him as he rolled his eyes. You’d even invited his whole family. You weren’t super close with yours and they hadn’t really supported your career, but the Piastri’s had. Nicole went to every premiere you offered her, sometimes flying last minute just to be there to support you. He remembered how touched you’d been when she showed up at your Cannes debut, you called him crying that night, not even knowing what to do with yourself because you thought it was just so nice. You were 14 then, but you were 24 now, and you weren’t just his girlfriend, you were his wife. You were officially part of the family, even though you had been from the moment he’d brought you home. He started playing with his ring, a nervous habit he’d picked up since getting married.
“It is fixed,” he snapped back as she fiddled with it. “Mum said it looked fine-”
“I wasn’t looking at you when I said that!” she called from the other room. Oscar rolled his eyes again.
“Your eyes are on swivels today,” Mae teased, looking up from her phone. Oscar fought back rolling them again, and instead went for a scoff.
“I’m the only reason you guys are even coming,” he scoffed, Hattie still fixing his tie. Mae’s jaw dropped in offence.
She gasped. “Excuse you! I think Y/n would still invite us even if you guys got a divorce.”
A shiver went up his spine at that thought. Leaving you? He couldn’t do it. He knew in his bones he’d adore you until he was old and grey, and probably a while after that too.
“She definitely would,” Eddie added, walking in. “Plus, she’s dressed now, if you want to see her.”
Oscar tried to pull away from Hattie, but he just got choked by his bowtie, resulting in a fit of coughs and a gaggle of laughter from his sisters.
He heard a chuckle he knew all too well and he turned his head. You were radiant. A burgundy formal gown, your hair exactly the way you loved it, and that wonderful look in your eyes. The one he saw when he woke up next to you. The one that made him blush no matter how long you’d been together. “You alright there?” you questioned.
He chuckled and Hattie finally finished with his bowtie, so he turned to you, wrapping his arms around your waist and pressing his lips to yours as he lifted you off the ground- just slightly. You grinned against his lips and he felt the panic that had been building completely subside. You pulled back as your feet reached the ground again, and chuckled. “Do I have lipstick?” he asked, a question he asked most days. You nodded, but Mae got up to take a photo, giggling at her brother with you. It didn’t bother him. You finally just wiped it off and smiled at him.
“What do you think?” you asked, pulling back and giving him a spin. You showed off the low back and he knew he’d be ripping this dress off of you tonight. He swore the breath was knocked from his lungs every time you looked at him, but truly, you were breathtaking.
“I think you’re the most beautiful woman in the entire world,” he whispered, pressing a soft kiss to your cheek.
“Oh yeah?” you smirked. He nodded.
“Oh yeah.”
The Red Carpet was as overwhelming as usual, but he enjoyed watching his sisters interact with the few fans of theirs that were there. He watched you with so much love and pride in his eyes, so much so that Tim had to nudge him to remember to walk on and not just stand in the back of your photos looking at you lovingly. When you finally finished up, you grabbed his hand as he led you into the auditorium.
“You still have my speeches?’ you questioned. He tapped his chest, signalling that it was in his breast pocket. You smiled. “Thank you.”
“Always,” he smiled back. “Forever.”
As soon as your moment began, it ended, because Nicole pulled you away to go talk to people and he fucked off to the dinner table. He watched as you worked the room, animatedly speaking to people as he watched on from his seat at the table, thoroughly enjoying his food.
It was his dad who pulled him out of his daze, asking how he was feeling.
“I’m fine,” he nodded, only slightly lying.
Chris smiled. “She’s going to win ‘em, I bet you.”
“She will,” Oscar nodded. “Her work has been incredible this year.”
“You’re telling me,” he chuckled. “I cried for three days over the Outrun.”
Oscar laughed out loud as his dad shook his head. “I know what you mean.”
Just then, Oscar caught your eye from the other side of the ballroom and you smiled at him, waving. He waved back. You were a vision in burgundy. He swore to go he was going to get heart palpitations from how beautiful you were.
“Starting soon now,” Tim clapped his hands on Oscar’s shoulders. “Better be ready with those acceptance speeches.”
Chris smiled at Tim. “Took the words out of my mouth,” he chuckled. “Also have to practice your shocked face. Even though we all know she’s going to win every single one of them,” Chris tapped his leg. “Like how she pretends to be shocked when you win.”
Oscar laughed, his cheeks going red. Why was he being embarrassed by his own father and step-father at the Oscars right now? He wanted you back, you could always calm them down, make them less… whatever they were.
“Busy?” you asked, coming up to the table, your question directed at him. He stood up immediately.
“Not at all,” he shook his head, the boys behind him chuckling like schoolgirls. He took your hand and you led him to the foot of the stage, squeezing his hand.
“I’m so glad you’re here,” you whispered, leaning to his shoulder. “Thank you for coming.”
“I'm so proud of you,” he smiled, his hand sneaking around your waist to pull you closer. He loved this. These quiet moments between all the hustle and bustle of your own lives. The room melted away behind you as you both stared at the stage you hoped you’d end up on tonight, but he knew you would. “I’ll always come.”
You chuckled. “You said cum.”
He rolled his eyes, the soft moment between the two of you, now abruptly over due to his choice of words. He looked down at you and you laughed at his unimpressed stare. “I love you?” you offered, cupping his cheek.
“I guess I love you too,” he leaned in and pressed his lips to yours gently, but quickly- as to not get lipstick all over his mouth.
“And the nominees are; Anora, written by Sean Baker. The Brutalist, written by Brady Corbet, Mona Fastvold. A Real Pain, written by Jesse Eisenberg. , September 5, written by Moritz Binder, Tim Fehlbaum; co-written by Alex David. The Substance, written by Y/n Y/l/n,” the crowd cheered and he felt your hand squeeze his just a little tighter. “And the winner is… Anora, written by Sean Baker!”
Despite the loss, you stood and clapped for him. Oscar joined you, though he thought you should’ve probably won. You both sat back down as his speech began and he took your hand again. “You alright?”
You nodded beside him, your eyes fixed to Sean and his speech. “There’s still like 4 hours left, don’t worry.”
He chuckled and pressed a soft kiss to your hand. Ever the positive person.
“And the nominees are; Anora, Sean Baker. The Brutalist, David Jancso. Conclave, Nick Emerson. The Outrun, Y/n Y/l/n. Wicked, Myron Kerstein,” you tensed beside him. “And the winner is… Y/n Y/l/n, The Outrun!”
And the room stood for you. He felt like he was in slow motion. You both stood up at the same time, a bright smile on your face (he was sure he looked ridiculous), and you turned to him and you hugged him.
“Holy shit,” you whispered. He smiled back, nodding.
“You fucking did it,” he cheered as he pulled the speech out of his pocket. “Go accept it.”
You nodded and started your descent down the stairs. The entirety of Hollywood was on their feet for you. You’d been working in the industry since you were a kid. Everyone knew how wonderful you were. Only he got to see it everyday. He watched, pride practically spilling from every pore as you stood up on that stage, taking the award in your hand, the sheet of paper in your hand. You looked up, a teary smile on your lips. “Wow,” you breathed out, looking at the room, but your eyes immediately met Oscar’s, and you both smiled again. “Hello, and thank you,” you started. “Umm… alright, speech- yes!” you unfolded the piece of paper in your hand and took a deep breath. “Well… first of all, I’d like to thank the academy, because this-” you held up your award. “Is incredible. And next, I’d like to thank my family. Nicole, Tim, Chris, Hattie, Eddie, Mae,” Oscar was already tearing up, and he was sure his mom was at the floodgates stage of it all. “You’ve been so incredibly kind to me over the past decade. You took me in when I was just a random 14 year old your son or brother was dating, and you gave me a family, and I'll always be grateful. Next, I’d like to thank my husband-” he felt a tear fall down his cheek and he knew there were about twenty cameras on him. There were a few cheers from the crowd. “- Oscar, you’ve made me insanely happy, and you’re my everything. But you’re also the only person I’ll ever let in my editing room. I love how curious you were at the start, and now, how effortlessly you help me. Truly, this is half yours-” you chuckled, and so did he. “No matter what. Whether you were coming in from a race weekend, totally exhausted, or just come back from a run, you’ll sit beside me in silence and help me make it all work. I don’t think you understand how much that means to me, so, thank you. I love you all, thank you!” you finished off, just wiping the small tear that had fallen away, as the crowd rose for you again. Oscar was a goner, tears falling freely as he tried to wipe them away. God, you were too kind. He adored you.
The night ended at 3am, you walked away with two Oscar awards, and one Oscar. He was grinning the whole time, too. Couldn’t stop. You won Best Editing and Best Supporting Actress. His family were elated and you giggled on the way back tot he hotel as you watched videos of them react to you winning, since they weren't sitting beside you.
Both you and Oscar were exhausted, so you fell into bed, immediately tangling with each other and knocking out.
He ran a hand through your hair as he lazily closed his eyes. "Y/n?"
You hummed against his skin, sign enough that you were slightly conscious.
"I adore you," he whispered, the silence of the room seeming even quieter in the dark. You looked up at him through tired eyes, a soft smile on your lips.
"I feel it," you smiled. "And I love you too."
Best night ever.

pit-a-pat | zayne
synopsis : He was never really yours. Not when she existed.
content : ANGST, zayne x non-mc!reader, some cannon some non-cannon, doctor zayne (a dash of sylus x reader)
It started beautifully.
Not with fireworks or declarations, but with something quieter—something softer.
You met Zayne on a Tuesday. The skies were overcast, and the campus café was packed with students trying to squeeze in one last coffee before the end-of-term chaos. You had just picked up your order, arms full of books and notes and a half-finished thought buzzing in your mind, when you turned too quickly and collided with someone.
The impact jolted through you. Your books scattered, your pen rolled under a chair, and your coffee splashed onto your sleeve. You let out a soft curse under your breath, flustered, apologizing before you even looked up.
Then a hand reached down, brushing against yours.
“I’m sorry,” came a low voice.
You looked up.
And that was the first time you saw him.
Zayne.
Tall, composed, sharp around the edges but inexplicably gentle in the way he moved. His eyes—hazel green, clear and steady—met yours like they already knew you. Like they had always known you.
He picked up your pen, handed it to you.
“I owe you a coffee,” he said. “Let me make it up to you.”
You smiled. Gave him your number.
The rest unfolded the way falling does—slow, weightless, inevitable.
There were no grand gestures. No overly rehearsed first dates. You didn’t even realize you were falling in love with him until you already had. He was simply there, steady and quiet and comforting in a way the world rarely is.
He never raised his voice. Never made you feel like you had to be more or less than exactly who you were. He wasn’t perfect—he kept things to himself, and his silences could stretch into days—but you loved him all the same. You told yourself it was enough. That love was never about loudness, but about staying.
And Zayne stayed.
For eight years.
You stood beside him through every sleepless night of his internship, through every heartbreak he brought home from the hospital. You held his hand when he was promoted, when he won awards, when the weight of lives saved and lost pressed too heavily against his shoulders.
You built a quiet life together. Shared takeout containers and cold pillows. Lazy Sunday mornings and long nights where your laptop glowed across the room as he dozed off beside you in his scrubs.
You became a writer, the kind with notebooks full of fictional heartbreaks, never quite knowing you were walking toward your own.
And you thought—foolishly, recklessly—that he was your ending.
That one day, you would wear white, and he would wait for you at the altar, hands trembling, heart full.
But some love stories are not meant to be lived. Only written.
—•
You stood outside his office now.
Your hand clutched his notebook, the one he left behind this morning in his rush to get to the hospital. His keys jangled faintly against your palm. You had texted, but he hadn’t responded. It wasn’t unusual. He got busy.
You told yourself that.
But the dread sitting in your chest was new.
The door to his office was slightly ajar. You stepped closer without thinking, intending only to knock—just knock, hand the things over, and leave.
But then, you heard his voice.
Low. Familiar. But not like you’d ever heard it before.
“I did this all… for you.”
Your body went still.
Inside, Zayne was standing with a girl you didn’t recognize—not at first. She was smaller than you, delicate. Her eyes were wide and wet. Zayne’s hand hovered just beside her cheek, and his other gripped her forearm like she was something slipping from his grasp.
“I planned this. To be your physician. To work here. Just so I could see you.”
The world tilted.
A cold, sharp pressure settled in your chest, and your fingers loosened. The keys dropped first, hitting the floor with a sound that sliced through the silence. His notebook followed, landing with a dull thud on the waiting chair beside the door.
Both of them turned.
She looked at you with startled recognition.
Zayne’s eyes locked onto yours. And in that instant, everything changed.
You knew.
You remembered her now. He had mentioned her once. His childhood friend. The one with the heart condition. A passing story over dinner, shared like a memory too old to matter.
You hadn’t thought anything of it then.
But you understood now.
She wasn’t a memory.
She was the reason.
The reason he became a doctor. The reason he worked here.
The reason for his choices, his ambition, his silence.
The reason he stayed up at night, staring at the ceiling.
The reason he chose a life of saving people—so he wouldn’t lose her.
You wanted to ask him if it was all a lie. But the words wouldn’t come.
Because deep down, you already knew the answer.
And he didn’t deny it.
He didn’t say your name. He didn’t come after you.
He just stood there. Watching.
And that hurt more than anything else.
You turned and walked away.
Not out of pride. Not out of anger.
But because staying would’ve shattered you in ways you weren’t sure you could recover from.
You made it to the elevator before the tears came. Quiet ones, slipping down your cheeks like they had every right to be there. You didn’t wipe them away. You didn’t try to breathe through the ache.
You let them fall.
Eight years.
Eight years of loving someone who had always belonged to someone else.
You had been writing your love story in ink.
But he had written his in pencil. And now, he had erased you.
You don’t go home right away.
You wander the streets with no destination, the city blurring past you like watercolor in the rain. Cars pass. People pass. The world keeps moving, unaware that yours has come undone.
By the time you return to your apartment, it’s dark.
You don’t bother turning on the lights. You sit on the edge of the bed where he’s slept beside you for years, staring at the familiar shapes in the shadows—his worn coat slung over the chair, the framed photo on the nightstand, the mug with his initials you always forget to put away.
And then the door clicks.
You don’t move.
You hear the soft shuffle of his shoes being kicked off. The hesitant steps down the hallway.
Then his voice.
“Hey.”
Quiet. Careful. Like the word might break.
You still don’t move.
A beat. Two. Then he speaks again. “I didn’t expect you to be there.”
You almost laugh. Didn’t expect—
You turn slowly to face him. The expression on your face is not angry. It’s worse.
It’s tired.
Empty.
“What was I supposed to see, Zayne?” you ask. Your voice doesn’t tremble, but it’s raw. “Because all I saw was a man in love with someone else.”
He doesn’t deny it.
He doesn’t even flinch.
He just looks at you with that same unreadable gaze he always has, like he’s weighing truths against silence. Like he’s trying to choose the least painful version of honesty.
“She was sick,” he says quietly. “You knew that.”
“That’s not the part that hurts.” Your words are sharp, but they don’t rise in volume. “The part that hurts is you built your whole life around her—and I didn’t know. I loved you for eight years. And I didn’t know.”
Zayne’s eyes darken, but he says nothing.
You continue, barely able to keep your voice steady. “Every step you took, every choice you made—becoming a doctor, working at Akso Hospital… You said you wanted to help people. You made me believe that was who you were.”
“I am that,” he says quickly.
“But that’s not why you did it.” Your voice cracks on the last word. “You did it for her.”
“I didn’t mean to hurt you.”
You almost laugh again, but it turns into something hollow.
“You didn’t mean to,” you echo, staring at him like you’re trying to memorize the face of someone you no longer recognize. “Zayne, I built my life around you. I was ready to marry you. I was planning forever with someone who—”
You choke. You try to breathe.
“—with someone who’s heart was never really mine.”
His shoulders stiffen. “It’s not that simple.”
“Yes, it is,” you say. “You loved her. You still love her. I was just… convenient.”
“That’s not true,” he says sharply. It’s the first time he’s raised his voice. “You weren’t convenient. You were—”
“What, Zayne? What was I?” you whisper. “A distraction? A substitute? Someone you convinced yourself you could be happy with because she wasn’t here?”
He looks away. That’s all the answer you need.
You don’t cry. Not this time. There’s nothing left in you to fall apart.
Instead, you stand.
“I would’ve understood if you had just told me,” you say quietly. “I would’ve left. I would’ve let you go. But you didn’t. You let me believe I was your person. And now, I don’t even know what was real.”
He doesn’t stop you when you move past him. He doesn’t call your name.
He just stands there, in the center of the hallway, with guilt written all over his face.
And you realize, for all his brilliance, for all the lives he’s saved.
Zayne never had the courage to save yours from this.
—•
You don’t even know why you agreed to be here.
Maybe part of you wanted closure. Maybe the angrier part of you wanted to look her in the eye and find something—anything—to blame.
Or maybe, in the raw aftermath of it all, you just wanted to understand what could possibly be so powerful that it unraveled eight years of your life like thread from a seam.
The hospital courtyard is quiet when you arrive. The air is cold, overcast with a brittle kind of stillness. You sit down on the far end of the stone bench, your hands curled inside your coat sleeves. The silence hums in your ears.
You almost leave.
But then you hear footsteps—soft, hesitant.
She stops in front of you. The girl.
The reason.
She looks like something out of a different life—slight, pale, wrapped in a coat two sizes too big. Her hair is tucked behind her ears, and her face is gentle in a way that feels unfair.
You wish she had sharpness to her. Arrogance.
Something you could hate on sight.
But she doesn’t.
She looks… kind.
And somehow, that hurts more.
“Hi,” she says, tentative.
You don’t answer. You just watch her, expression unreadable, trying to see what he must’ve seen.
She glances down, wringing her hands. “Thanks for coming.”
You almost say don’t thank me. Almost. But the words stay behind your teeth.
She sits, carefully keeping distance between you.
A long silence stretches out.
“I know this is strange,” she begins, “and I don’t want to make anything worse. I just thought… maybe you deserved to hear it from me.”
Your jaw clenches. “Did you know about me?”
She hesitates. Then, “Yes.”
You inhale slowly. That answer burns.
“So you knew,” you murmur, your voice tighter than you want it to be, “and you still let it happen.”
“I didn’t let anything happen,” she says softly. “I didn’t come looking for him. I didn’t expect to see him again. And when I did, I didn’t know how to undo it.”
Undo it. As if this is something she can unspool. As if your heart was a thread to pull clean.
You turn to her then, finally meeting her gaze. “I tried to hate you.”
She flinches, but you continue.
“I wanted to. I really, really did. I told myself you were selfish. That you ruined everything. That he wouldn’t have drifted if you hadn’t been there.”
Your eyes sting. But the tears stay where they are.
“I needed to hate you. Because hating him… it’s harder. And hating myself—well, that’s already happening.”
She looks at you with something close to sorrow. Not pity. Not guilt. Just a deep, quiet understanding.
“I never meant to take anything from you,” she says. “But I think… I always had him. Even when I didn’t want to.”
You nod slowly. That’s the part that kills you.
“It wasn’t fair,” you whisper. “I loved him for eight years. I gave him everything. And he—he was building a life around you the entire time.”
The girl’s lips tremble. “I don’t think he knew how to let go of me. Not fully. I don’t even think he knew he hadn’t.”
You close your eyes. The wind picks up, threading cold fingers through your coat.
“You know what’s funny?” you say, voice hollow. “I thought we were preparing for a wedding. Turns out, I was standing in the way of a reunion.”
Silence falls again. Heavy. Unforgiving.
She blinks quickly, her throat working around words she can’t say. “I’m sorry.”
You believe her. That’s the worst part.
You wanted her to be cruel, or callous, or indifferent. You wanted her to be easy to hate.
But she’s just a girl with a fragile heart, loved too deeply by someone who was never entirely yours to begin with.
You rise slowly. Your legs feel heavy, as if grief has settled in your joints.
“I hope he saves you,” you murmur. “I hope it’s worth everything he lost.”
You don’t wait for her to respond.
You leave. And this time, you don’t cry.
But something in you quietly, irrevocably, closes.
—•
He shows up three days later.
You don’t know how he finds the nerve.
You’ve ignored his calls. His texts. The pathetic, half-sincere “Can we talk?” messages that began the night after the garden. He should’ve known better. He should’ve stayed gone.
But here he is.
You hear the knock this time. You sit still for a moment, your fingers curled around the edge of the blanket you’ve barely left for days, breath caught between dread and fury.
He knocks again. Harder this time.
You stand. Not because you want to see him—because you need to. To put a face to the damage.
When you open the door, it’s like nothing has changed. He’s still Zayne. Rain-damp, serious, heartbreakingly familiar in that coat you once buried your face into when the world felt too loud.
But he’s not yours anymore.
Not really.
“What do you want?” you ask. No softness. No welcome.
His jaw tenses. “To talk.”
Your laugh is sharp and joyless. “Of course. Now you talk.”
“I know I should’ve—”
“Spare me the guilt,” you snap. “I’m not in the mood to hear you pretend this wasn’t calculated.”
He flinches. “It wasn’t.”
“Oh no?” You take a step forward. “You became a doctor for her, Zayne. You took a job at her hospital. You became her physician. How long were you going to keep lying to me?”
“I didn’t lie.”
“You didn’t tell me!” you shout. “That’s the same thing!”
Your voice echoes through the hallway. You don’t care who hears. You want it to hurt.
He looks at you, lips parted like he wants to defend himself—but nothing comes out.
“I asked you once,” you continue, quieter now but no less cutting, “why you wanted to be a doctor. You told me it was to save lives. You looked me in the eye and lied.”
“I didn’t lie,” he says again, harsher now. “That’s still true. Saving her doesn’t make that less real.”
“It makes everything less real,” you spit. “Eight years, Zayne. I gave you everything. I built a future around someone who was still living in his past.”
“She almost died,” he snaps. “Do you understand that? She was twelve. I thought I lost her. I made a promise—”
“To her,” you interrupt. “You made a promise to her, and you made a life with me. You don’t get to have both.”
He falls silent.
His hands are clenched at his sides. His mouth is tight. You can tell he wants to argue, but he won’t. Because he knows you’re right.
“She was never gone,” you whisper. “Not from your heart. Not from your plans. And you… you let me believe I was enough. That I was your beginning and your end. But I was just—” your voice cracks, “I was just a pause in the story you’d always meant to return to.”
He shakes his head, voice strained. “That’s not what you were.”
“Then what was I, Zayne?”
He looks at you like he’s searching for the right words. The truth. But it’s too late for carefully packaged honesty.
You take a breath. It’s cold in your lungs. “You don’t get to grieve this. Not now. Not when you’re the one who ended it.”
“I didn’t want to hurt you.”
You laugh again. This time, it sounds like it might break you. “But you did.”
You walk back inside and return a minute later with the box—his books, his charger, the old hoodie you used to sleep in. You shove it into his arms.
He doesn’t take it right away. “Please—don’t let this be how it ends.”
You stare at him, empty. Tired. “Zayne, it ended the moment you chose silence.”
He lowers his head. Grips the box like it’s the only thing holding him together.
And when he finally turns to leave, you don’t stop him.
This time, you don’t look back.
And this time—he does cry.
He doesn’t go home.
Not right away.
He drives. Somewhere. Anywhere. The roads blur beneath the city lights, each turn as pointless as the last. He forgets where he’s meant to be.
He doesn’t cry at first.
That doesn’t happen until later—when he pulls over on the side of an empty street, kills the engine, and sits in the silence he spent years wrapping around his truth.
And then it hits him.
Not like a punch. No, it’s slower than that.
It’s the steady, suffocating realization that you’re gone.
Really gone.
Not just upset. Not waiting for him to make it right.
Gone, because you loved him too deeply to stay where you were never really seen.
He rests his forehead against the steering wheel and exhales a broken sound that might be a sob. Might be a prayer. Might just be everything finally coming undone.
How did he get here?
He thinks back to when you met. Your laugh—unexpected, soft. The way you always saw right through his silences, but never pushed too hard. How you held his hand during exams, during sleepless nights, during the moments he thought he might collapse under the weight of what he couldn’t say.
And now?
Now you won’t even look at him.
And he doesn’t blame you.
He’d clung so tightly to a ghost of the past, he never noticed he was strangling the only real thing he had left.
The worst part? He meant it. Every word he said to the other girl. The promise. The devotion. He did want to save her. He did want to protect her.
But he never asked himself why.
Maybe he thought saving her would fix something in him. That if he kept his promise, if he held on tightly enough, he’d redeem himself for that helpless, broken boy who once stood in an ER, covered in blood that didn’t belong to him.
But he never meant to love both.
Not like this.
He stares out the windshield, watching the rain bead and slide down the glass. It reminds him of you. Of the way you never cried in front of him—not even when it hurt.
Especially when it hurt.
And that night in the hallway—your voice shaking but never pleading. Your eyes full of betrayal, not begging. That was love, too. The kind that breaks itself before it breaks you.
He wipes his face with the back of his hand, as if that will erase the weight in his chest.
But it stays.
God, it stays.
And for the first time since med school, since the long nights that almost drowned him, Zayne doesn’t know what to do.
Not with himself.
Not with this regret.
He was always good at silence. At burying what he didn’t want to face.
But this time, silence cost him the only person who ever stayed.
The hospital doesn’t feel the same.
It should.
Same corridors. Same sterile smell. Same rustle of nurses’ shoes against polished floors. He walks these halls every day—he knows the pattern of the tiles, the rhythm of the fluorescent lights above. He’s built a life inside this place.
But now?
It feels hollow. Too bright in some places. Too quiet in others.
He stands outside Operating Room B with a chart in his hand, staring at words he isn’t reading. His mind drifts. Again.
“Doctor Zayne?”
He blinks. A nurse is looking at him, brows slightly furrowed.
“You’re needed in Cardiology.”
Right. Cardiology. Her department.
He nods, mutters something close to thanks, and moves.
He still performs the surgeries. Still signs the charts. Still nods when interns look at him like he holds the world in his hands.
But something is gone.
And it’s not skill. It’s not precision.
Its presence.
He’s no longer in his life. He’s moving through it. Performing. Like muscle memory.
The girl—his childhood friend—she’s recovering. Stable. And she smiles when she sees him, small and grateful and warm.
But it doesn’t make him feel anything.
Not now.
Not since he saw the look on your face—the woman he promised a future to. The one who gave him all of herself without knowing he was never giving you all of him.
He remembers your hands, trembling when you pushed the box into his arms. The edge in your voice when you asked, “Then what was I, Zayne?”
He didn’t have an answer then.
He still doesn’t.
Because how do you explain to someone that they were your peace, your softness, your home—and you lost them because you couldn’t let go of a promise made by a boy who hadn’t learned how to speak his grief out loud?
Zayne finds himself in the stairwell, long after his shift ends. He doesn’t even remember walking here.
He sits on the steps. Folds forward. Buries his face in his hands.
He doesn’t cry. He already did that. He’s past crying now.
What he feels now is worse.
Emptiness.
The kind that seeps into everything.
He pulls out his phone. Opens your name. Stares at the last message you sent.
“Can you grab oat milk on the way home?”
He didn’t even answer it.
He thinks about texting. Something. Anything.
“I miss you.”
“I’m sorry.”
“I didn’t know I was choosing wrong until you were gone.”
But he doesn’t.
Because what could he say now that wouldn’t sound like too little, too late?
And because maybe—deep down—he knows you deserve someone who doesn’t have to lose you to realize you were everything.
—•
You were sitting at your usual corner table in a café tucked between a bookstore and a florist—one of those quiet places where time didn’t feel so heavy. You weren’t writing. Not that day. You just sat there, fingers wrapped around a chipped ceramic mug, watching the world through a pane of glass slick with water.
Existing in the small, still spaces between grief and recovery.
You had been doing that a lot lately. Watching.
It was raining. Of course it was.
It had been seven months since Zayne. Since the silence. Since the hallway.
You hadn’t dated anyone. You couldn’t.
Not when your heart still ached in places you hadn’t named.
That’s where you met Sylus.
He walked in, his footsteps confident as he strides up to the counter.
You didn’t look up at first. Just heard the low hum of the door chime, the soft sound of boots on wet tile. Then came the voice.
“I’ll take whatever’s strongest and not completely terrible.”
It made you glance over your shoulder.
And there he was.
White silver hair that stood out against the interior of the coffee shop.
Sharp-featured. Tall. Dressed in black with a half-dried coat slung over one arm and stormy red eyes that didn’t belong in a place like this.
He looked… misfit.
Like someone who had gotten lost on his way to something louder.
He caught you staring.
Smirked.
“Judging me already?” he said as he passed your table.
You blinked, caught off guard. “You looked like you came in here by accident.”
“I did.” He set his cup on the table across from yours without asking. “Lucky me.”
You stared at him. He stared right back. There was no hesitation in him.
No over-eagerness. No rehearsed charm. Just a strange kind of confidence, like he didn’t care whether you invited him in or not.
And yet… somehow, he was easy to talk to.
That first conversation was short. Nothing special. He told you he was in the city for work. Said he hated the rain. You said you didn’t mind it.
He teased you for that. Called you a poet. You didn’t correct him.
Before he left, he asked for your name. Then he gave you his. Sylus.
He didn’t ask for your number. He didn’t flirt. He just said, “Maybe I’ll see you here again.”
And you did.
The next week. And the week after that.
Same table. Same rain.
He never asked about your past, and you never asked about his.
He talked to you like you were new. Like you weren’t made of broken pieces.
And you liked that.
You liked that he didn’t try to fix you. That he didn’t reach for your scars or ask what happened.
He just saw you. All of you.
Eventually, you started writing again.
He’d sit across from you, reading some obscure book or sketching something in a notebook he never let you see.
“You ever gonna tell me what that is?” you asked one afternoon.
“Maybe,” he said with a shrug, “when you’re done hiding behind yours.”
You laughed. For the first time in a long time, it didn’t feel strange.
He didn’t slip into your life the way Zayne did.
No, Sylus walked in with loud footsteps and called attention to all the parts of you that still needed to be held.
And when he finally kissed you—months later, after too many late nights and half-finished conversations—he didn’t whisper promises.
He only said, “You don’t have to be ready. Just let me stay.”
And you did.
Now, you’re curled up on the couch in one of Sylus’s old sweaters, legs folded beneath you, a half-read book resting in your lap.
You’ve read the same paragraph three times. The words blur and smear.
Not because you’re tired—though you are—but because your thoughts won’t sit still.
He notices.
He always does.
Sylus steps out from the kitchen, two mugs in hand. You hadn’t asked for tea. You never really need to. He knows the nights when you can’t quite find your center.
He sits beside you, close but never crowding, and offers the cup without a word.
You take it, fingers brushing his. His touch is warm. Steady.
You don’t speak right away.
He doesn’t push.
That’s the thing about Sylus. He doesn’t try to draw the pain out of you. He just makes space for it. Holds it. Waits until you’re ready.
After a long moment, you say quietly, “It’s almost been two years.”
His gaze doesn’t waver. “Since him?”
You nod.
Sylus leans back against the couch, stretching an arm along the top. Not possessive. Just there. Like a safety net.
“Do you want to talk about it?”
You shake your head. “Not really. I just… thought I’d be past the memory by now.”
He hums softly. “Memories don’t care about time. They’re like bruises under the skin. You forget they’re there until something presses too hard.”
You glance at him, lips tugging into a faint, worn smile. “Is that your poetic way of saying it’s okay to feel like this?”
He smirks. “It’s my poetic way of saying I’m not going anywhere.”
Your smile softens. Fades into something real.
He’s never tried to replace what came before. Never asked you to forget it. He simply stayed.
When you turned away.
When you flinched at first touch.
When you said not yet.
When you said I’m not whole.
Sylus looked you in the eye and said, You don’t have to be.
And you believed him.
Now, you lean your head against his shoulder, tea still warm between your hands. He lets you rest there in silence.
No questions. No expectations.
Just the quiet knowing that this—whatever it is—is something different.
Something earned.
And when his hand finds yours and doesn’t let go, you feel it again.
That peace you thought you’d never know after Zayne.
The kind of love that doesn’t arrive like a storm.
But like a home.
—•
Two years later, you see him again.
You hadn’t expected it—weren’t prepared for it.
It’s a charity gala, the kind Sylus rarely agrees to attend, but he’s here tonight for you.
One hand on your back, the other wrapped loosely around a glass of champagne he hasn’t touched. He looks just like he always does, sharp suit, sharp tongue, a man made of storm and steel, and yet—when he looks at you, it softens him.
Always.
You never thought you’d get to feel this way again.
Safe.
Loved.
Chosen.
You’re speaking to someone—maybe a publisher, maybe a donor—you don’t really remember.
And then you feel it.
That cold flicker down your spine.
That familiar stillness before the silence breaks.
You turn.
And there he is.
Zayne.
Two years older. A little more tired. A little less certain.
He’s standing just across the room, alone in a sea of people.
He looks like he doesn’t quite belong here, like he’s watching a world he no longer fits into.
And then his eyes find you.
You don’t look away.
You let him see it—all of it.
The soft smile on your lips. The ring on your finger. The way Sylus leans in, brushing a kiss to your temple without even realizing he’s doing it.
Zayne’s expression doesn’t change. Not really. But you feel the ripple.
Because this time, you are not the one breaking.
You are not the one watching love walk away.
You’re standing still.
And someone is holding on.
You excuse yourself quietly from the conversation, fingers brushing Sylus’s wrist as you turn to whisper something.
He catches the look in your eyes. He knows. Of course he knows.
But he says nothing. Just stays close. Just keeps his hand resting at the small of your back like he’s reminding you—you’re not alone.
When you approach, Zayne doesn’t speak right away.
He just looks at you like he’s trying to memorize the life you’ve built without him. The one he didn’t stay long enough to deserve.
“You look…” he begins, but falters. His voice is rougher now. Thinner.
“Happy?” you offer gently.
He nods. “Yeah.”
You glance back at Sylus, who’s watching from a respectful distance, sharp-eyed and protective as ever. He always gives you space when you need it. But never too far.
“I didn’t know you were back in the city,” Zayne says.
You nod. “We moved here last spring.”
“We?”
“My husband and I.”
He flinches—just barely. But you see it.
You don’t gloat. You don’t need to.
There’s a grace in moving on that silence can never rewrite.
“He’s good to you?” Zayne asks.
You smile. “He sees me.”
The words hang between you. Heavy. Sharp. True.
Zayne swallows hard. “I’m glad.”
You nod. And this time, it’s real. “So am I.”
You don’t stay long. Just long enough for him to see that you survived him. That you bloomed after the break. That someone else saw what he couldn’t hold.
You return to Sylus without looking back.
He slides his arm around your waist and leans in, his lips brushing your ear. “You okay?”
“Yeah,” you whisper. “I am now.”
And as the music rises and the crowd begins to move again, you rest your hand over your husband’s and let yourself forget the boy who couldn’t choose you.
Because you’ve already chosen the man who never had to be asked.

will bakugou choose seoul, korea or your wedding anniversary?
Bakugou had turned the damn house upside down three times.
“Where the hell is it?” He hissed under his breath, storming through the hallway closet for the third time in two days. He’d torn apart the shoe rack, the document folders, and even flipped through the cookbooks in the kitchen, just in case he’d used it as a bookmark. No dice. The damn passport was still missing.
His hair was sticking up more than usual—half from stress, half from the static of the hoodie he’d thrown on that morning in frustration. They were supposed to leave for Korea in three days. Three. It was the biggest pro-hero conference he’d ever been invited to—panel talks, interviews, awards. Best Jeanist, Lemillion, and even Halfie had their confirmations sent in already.
And what did he have?
An expired copy of his license (he got a new one; the expired one’s just in his drawer), a half-crushed protein bar, and a very pouty, very pregnant wife in the living room.
You had your feet up on the couch, ankles slightly swollen beneath the oversized hoodie you’d stolen from his wardrobe. You were scrolling on your phone with one hand, the other resting on your baby bump, lazily tracing circles. When Bakugou stomped past, you looked up with the slow blink of a cat.
“Still lost?” you asked, not bothering to hide your amusement. Even laughed under your breath.
The audacity, he thinks, though it wasn’t frustration. He could never be mad at you.
Because he knows you’ll get mad at him, too.
Bakugou didn’t answer. He grunted instead, pulling out another drawer in the cabinet near the TV.
“Maybe it grew legs and walked off,” you teased. “Or maybe your big fat ego swallowed it.”
He shot you a look. “Not helping.”
You hummed. “Not trying to.”
Your pout had gotten more dramatic since hitting six months. Bakugou noticed it more these days, how you’d stare down your food like it personally offended you, or how you’d sigh theatrically every time the topic of even him leaving the house came up. At first, you’d been supportive—even joked that you’d video call him during the conference and heckle him from the screen. But once you found out the biggest day of the event landed on your wedding anniversary, the whole game changed.
Suddenly he feels like he’s on house arrest.
“Maybe it’s a sign,” you murmured, taking a sip of the juice he made you this morning. “Maybe you’re meant to stay home this time.”
Bakugou scoffed. As if.
“Ain’t no damn sign. It’s just misplacin’ shit.”
“You don’t have to go,” you said again. “You could stay. Cuddle me. Eat cake. Listen to me cry about clouds.”
“You said I could go if I find my passport,” he pouts, brows furrowed, and his lips jutted slightly.
“I did, and don’t be mad,” you replied. “I want you to go. Really. You’ve worked so hard.”
“Then why do you look like you wanna punch me in the throat?”
You blinked at him. “Because it’s our anniversary and I’m hormonal. Sue me.”
“Uh-huh.”
“So I hope you don’t find it.”
That was the end of that conversation.
-
The night before their anniversary came sooner than expected.
Bakugou had made a reservation at one of the nicest rooftop restaurants in the city. Private booth, soft fairy lights, cityscape twinkling behind them. The host even laid a small bouquet of lavender on the table when he told them it was for a special occasion. He hadn’t told you where you were going, only grunted, “Wear that dress you like—that comfy one. You know the one.”
He hadn’t mentioned anything new about the passport ordeal. You, who figured he’d either given up or accepted fate, were mostly content to enjoy the evening.
You looked like a dream, so his focus was entirely on you. Someone who he somehow managed to have (maybe his bond with his guardian angels came in clutch and even contacted Cupid himself to arrange an arrow for you two).
You waddled into the restaurant, cheeks a little fuller, eyes glowing. He still looked at you like he couldn’t believe he got so lucky. He thinks it makes you shy, how intense his gaze got, even after everything—the morning sickness, the mood swings, the late-night hospital runs due to paranoia.
“You okay?” he asked, placing a hand on your lower back as you walked in.
“Mm,” you hummed, leaning into his touch. You could barely hide your smile at this point. “You’re staring.”
He didn’t even deny it. “I am? So what? Can’t a man just appreciate his wife?”
Dinner went well, for the most part.
You had one hand on your belly, the other wrapped around his fingers on the table. You were halfway through your chocolate mousse when Bakugou reached into his jacket pocket and slid something across the table.
“No,” you said slowly, setting your spoon down. “You didn’t.”
“Yeah, I did.”
He didn’t look smug at all, more like... hopeful.
Your brows furrowed. You reached for the passport, flipping it open.
There it was. His damn passport. Found. Intact. Stamped. His most recent picture was taken only a few months ago.
Yoh stared at it. Then at you. Then back at it again.
“…You found it?”
“Yup.”
“Where was it?”
He cleared his throat, gaze shifting to the side.
“…Behind the dresser in the guest room. Stuffed in that red envelope labeled ‘Important Shit,’ which you labeled in your handwriting, by the way.”
You paused. Your cheeks puffed again as your lips turned downward in the softest pout he’d ever seen. You looked down at your half-eaten dessert, spoon idle.
“You’re really gonna go?”
“I want to,” he admitted. “But I don’t wanna leave you pissed off and lonely, either.”
You didn’t say anything at first. Just poked at your mousse with your spoon. Your lashes were low, and he could tell you were struggling. Not angry, just…sad.
Finally, you said, “It’s just one. It’s just one anniversary. We’ll have dozens more, right?”
“We will. We’ll have centuries more.”
“…And you’ll video call me. Every day.”
“Morning and night.”
“And text me when you land. And when you eat. And when you leave the venue. And—”
Bakugou reached across the table and tugged gently at your hand. His hands are rough against yours, but they’re filled with sincerity and utmost love that a man could give to his wife.
“Hey.”
You looked up.
His voice softened.
“Seriously, d’ya think I’d leave you without a plan?”
You blinked.
“I’m leavin’ you flowers and your cake. I told Kirishima to drop off that spa basket thing you said you wanted last month. And your mom’s stayin’ over the night of. I made sure. I even stocked the fridge.”
Your mouth parted slightly, tilting your head to the side. “You…did all that?”
“Yeah.” He looked almost bashful now, scratching the back of his neck. “Didn’t want you to think I forgot. Even if I ain’t here physically. I’m still here.”
Your eyes shimmered just a bit. A good sign, Bakugou notes.
Then you smiled—soft and tired and affectionate.
“God, you’re gonna make me cry.”
“Tch. Don’t cry. I’ll look like an asshole.”
You laughed then, nose crinkling. “You are an asshole. But a sweet one.”
“Yeah, you love me.”
“I do.”
You two didn’t talk about the passport again that night. Not after that.
Instead, you finished dessert. Slowly. Your hand stayed in his the whole time.
When you walked out of the restaurant, he kept his arm around your shoulders, guiding you carefully down the steps like you were made of glass. You leaned into him, soft and warm, your belly pressing into his side.
And when they got home, you told him, “Let’s open the anniversary cake early.”
He didn’t say no. Not when you looked that happy. It doesn’t matter that he’s already full from the chocolate mousse you two had earlier.
When night finally settled, and Bakugou’s wiping the excess frosting off the corners of your lips with a napkin, he hears you say, “Come home soon, okay?”
He nodded, then softly kissed the crown of your head.
“Always.”
Always come home to you.
-
The morning of Bakugou’s flight started earlier than usual.
He had been up before the alarm even went off, brushing his teeth with the kind of intensity that only came from years of military-grade discipline… or nerves (also because he wants all bad germs on his mouth to die). Not that he’d ever admit to the latter. He stood in front of the mirror, towel slung low on his hips, steam curling from the hot shower as he stared at his reflection.
This was it. The day he was supposed to fly out to Korea.
Except—he wasn’t going.
Not really.
He’d made his decision last night, somewhere between the weight of your hug and the feel of your heartbeat against his body when you fell asleep on his chest. The moment you started snoring softly, your nose slightly buried in his shirt, he realized there was no way in hell he was getting on that plane.
Not this time.
But you didn’t need to know that just yet.
Because if there was one thing Bakugou knew about his wife, it was that you’d throw a fit if he skipped a life-changing professional opportunity just to spend your anniversary folding baby laundry and rubbing your swollen ankles. Plus, he knew you’d never allow him to stay. And if you knew he was lying about leaving, you’d huff and puff until he actually made him go.
So, he planned ahead. Like a goddamn mastermind.
By the time you woke up—slightly groggy with pillow lines on your cheek—he had already “packed.” His suitcase was zipped shut and positioned neatly by the door. His travel duffle bag sat upright next to it. His travel documents were tucked inside an envelope labeled “Do Not Open Unless Emergency.” (Totally blank inside.)
You blinked at him sleepily, rubbing your eyes as you waddled into the living room in his oversized T-shirt. One of the many shirts he was sure was missing from his closet.
“You already packed?” you murmured, voice small and pouty.
He turned from the kitchen, coffee mug in hand. Acting too nonchalant to not give anything away.
“Yeah,” he said. “Didn’t wanna rush.”
You crossed your arms over your bump. “It’s only a three-hour flight, Katsuki. Not an expedition to the Arctic.”
“Still gotta prep,” he said, biting back a grin.
Your eyes narrowed suspiciously, but the smell of something sweet distracted you. Bingo.
He stepped aside, revealing a neatly arranged dessert box sitting on the counter. Inside: four of your favorites—strawberry shortcake with extra whipped cream, a slice of creamy Basque burnt cheesecake, a generous portion of tiramisu, and your current obsession: mango sticky rice.
“You bought me desserts?” you awed.
“I bought you a stack,” he corrected. “Don’t think I don’t know you get all sad and start craving sugar when I leave.”
You scoffed. “I do not.”
“You do,” he said, crossing his arms smugly. “You pouted so hard last time I left, I came back to find the fridge empty and you passed out with a half-eaten ice cream tub on the couch.”
“That was one time!”
“And I’m not takin’ chances.”
He bent forward, pressed a kiss to your cheek, then to your rounded belly. “Eat well. Don’t lift anything heavy. Text me when you’re sleepy. I’ll land by lunch. Kirishima’s already on the way, but it’ll take a while because of traffic since the bridge is getting repaired.”
“You’re acting suspicious,” you said, frowning as you clung to his shirt. “You never say goodbye this… nicely.”
“That’s rude,” he muttered. “I’m always nice.”
“No, you’re normally grumpy and say something like, ‘Don’t burn the house down while I’m gone.’”
He smirked. You weren’t wrong entirely.
“Well, maybe I don’t wanna come back to find out you’ve cried over an empty dessert box.”
Your lip wobbled, and he kissed you again—softly this time, with an extra squeeze to your waist.
“I’ll be back before you know it. It’s just for two nights.”
-
He left around nine. Or at least, pretended to.
Instead of heading to the airport, he drove straight to his agency, parked in the underground garage, and holed up in his office. There was a bottle of juice in the mini fridge, emergency snacks in the bottom drawer, and an absurd number of congratulatory emails flooding his inbox that he ignored.
The hours ticked by slowly.
He checked his phone a dozen times. No calls. No texts. Just one blurry photo from you of the dessert box with the caption: You’re lucky I’m in a sugar coma right now. Or I’d be mad you left without triple kissing me goodbye.
He snorted.
Around lunchtime, he got restless. Then irritated.
Then, at exactly 1:00 P.M., he got in the car and drove home.
No warning.
No heads-up.
He half-expected you to be lounging in the living room, watching drama reruns and fanning yourself while complaining about heartburn. But when he pulled up the driveway and unlocked the front door—
The house was suspiciously quiet.
His brows pulled together.
“[Name]?” he called out, stepping in.
Nothing.
He frowned and shut the door behind him, stepping out of his boots. He heard a thud from the back hallway. Then a low grunt. A shuffle.
His eyes narrowed.
Then he heard you muttering.
“Come on, come on, I’m not that heavy—”
He rounded the corner—and stopped cold.
There you were.
Standing in the hallway. Sweaty. Red-faced. Holding a large box half your size with both hands, your bump barely giving you enough room to balance it. Your lip was caught between your teeth as you struggled to carry what was definitely one of the boxes he had explicitly labeled: Do Not Touch.
“…What the hell do you think you’re doing?”
You screamed.
You literally screamed—jumping nearly out of your skin, eyes wide like you saw a ghost.
Or a burglar.
Or both, at this point.
“—Katsuki! I thought you were in Korea—what the hell—”
“Put the box down.”
“You can’t just walk in like that, I thought—I—”
“Put it down, [Name].”
You dropped it with a loud thunk, wobbling backward and grabbing your shoulders.
“Oh my god, I thought you were a home invader! I was ready to throw a candle at you—why are you back?!”
Bakugou marched toward you, still wide-eyed with a mixture of rage and pure panic. He can’t believe this at all. “More importantly, why the fuck are you lifting boxes?!”
“I was bored!”
“Bored? So you decided to tear a disc and pop a blood vessel?!”
“I didn’t tear anything! And it wasn’t heavy; it’s mostly baby blankets!”
He crouched down instantly to pick it up—still heavy, despite your excuses—and carried it to the nursery, grumbling the entire way. “Goddamn woman’s gonna give me a stroke,” he muttered, though there was never any heat in his words.
You waddled after him, still stunned.
“Wait. Why are you here?!”
“I never left.”
“You… what?”
“I stayed at the agency. Figured I’d come back after you thought I was gone. Catch you red-handed.”
“You liar!”
He turned toward you, his frustration subsiding.
“You’re not even a good liar! You went full fake goodbye mode this morning! You even left me mango sticky rice!”
“Yeah. ‘Cause I knew you’d snoop around and start being reckless the second you thought no one was watching.”
Your cheeks puffed up again. That damn pout.
“I was just nesting,” you mumbled.
“Nesting doesn’t involve deadlifting half a closet,” he shot back. “You promised you’d take it easy.”
“…I thought you were in Korea.”
“Yeah, well, again, surprise.”
You blinked up at him again, eyes soft now, overwhelmed. “…You really stayed just for me?”
When he sets the boxes down, he exhaled and cupped your cheek, thumb brushing under your eye. “You really thought I’d leave you alone on our anniversary? Pregnant? Carrying boxes? Eating dessert by yourself? What do you take me for? A shitty husband?”
You hit his chest weakly.
“You’re so unfair,” you muttered.
“I know,” he grinned. “And I love you.”
You melted then. Completely.
Wrapping your arms around him, your bump pressing into his stomach, you buried your face in his chest and whispered: “I love you too, you dramatic maniac.”
That night, there was no flight. No press. No conference.
Just takeout on the couch, your feet in his lap, mango sticky rice on your plate, and his hand splayed across your belly like a homecoming gift.
Bakugou may have missed a headline.
But he made the right choice.
And that mattered more.

THIRD PERSON +
The energy of the Golden Globes after-party was electric. The clinking of glasses, low hum of laughter, and faint music filled the space. Celebrities mingled under the soft glow of chandeliers, conversations buzzing with excitement about the evening's wins.
Drew Starkey sat at the bar nursing a glass of champagne, still slightly stunned from his earlier win. He'd barely had time to process the moment—his first major nomination and now his first big award.
The crowd was overwhelming, but his co-star, Daniel Craig, had insisted he celebrate properly. Drew watched as Daniel cut through the party with his unmistakable presence, shaking hands, embracing friends, and flashing that rare smile that could light up a room. Behind him, someone followed, and Drew's attention lingered just a little too long.
"Starkey!" Daniel's voice carried above the noise. Drew straightened instinctively, placing his glass back down as Daniel approached.
"Hey!" Drew smiled. "Congrats again. Well deserved, man."
"Thank you. Same to you." Daniel clapped him on the shoulder before stepping to the side. "I want you to meet someone."
Stepping forward with a confident stride was a young woman, poised but relaxed in a way that suggested she belonged in a room like this. Daniel turned to her with an almost affectionate roll of his eyes.
"This is my daughter, Y/N."
Y/N smiled and offered her hand to Drew. "Hi. I've heard so much about you."
Drew shook her hand, his mind scrambling for composure. "You too. I mean—I haven't heard about you in that sense, but your dad's mentioned you. Not in a bad way—uh, I mean—" He stopped, exhaling with a self-deprecating laugh. "Sorry, I'm a bit flustered. It's nice to meet you."
Y/N grinned. "Quite the introduction, Drew."
Daniel raised a brow at them both, clearly amused. "Well, I'll leave you two to it. I see a few friends I need to go bother." He glanced at Drew. "Behave yourself."
Drew let out an awkward laugh. "Of course. Always."
Daniel walked away, disappearing into the crowd. Y/N turned back to Drew, tilting her head slightly as she observed him. "He's very fond of you, you know."
"Is he?" Drew replied, trying to play it cool. "He's great. Working with him was... surreal, honestly."
"I'd imagine. I've seen the movie, of course. You were phenomenal." Her tone was warm, genuine, and Drew found himself smiling at her praise.
"Thank you. That means a lot."
She leaned against the bar, signaling to the bartender for a drink. "You look surprised."
"I guess I just... still don't know how to take compliments," Drew admitted, rubbing the back of his neck. "It's all been a bit overwhelming."
"You shouldn't be so modest. Your performance was stunning. And you've got the trophy to prove it." She shot him a teasing smile. "Don't let it go to your head, though."
Drew laughed, finally feeling himself relax. "I'll try my best. And you—your dad said you're an actress as well? And a model?"
"Here and there. I've done some niche indie films—ones that play in small theatres no one ever goes to." Her voice was light, self-deprecating but playful.
"Niche or not, that's impressive." Drew met her gaze. "What kind of roles?"
Y/N paused as the bartender slid a glass of wine her way. "I guess you could say I play a lot of brooding, lost souls. The ones who always seem to sit by windows and stare out dramatically."
"Ah, very serious. Lots of silent contemplation?"
"Exactly." Y/N laughed softly. "But enough about me. Tell me about Queer. It must've been... intense to film."
"It was." Drew nodded, leaning his elbow on the bar as he turned toward her. "Luca Gaudagnino has this way of making you feel completely vulnerable. It was a challenge, but I trusted him. There's this scene—I'm sure you remember it—where my character completely unravels."
"How could I forget?" Y/N said softly, her eyes locked on his. "You were so raw in that moment. It was almost uncomfortable to watch because it felt so real."
Drew blinked, feeling his ears heat. "That's what Luca wanted. He kept pushing me to 'stop acting,' as he put it. He'd say, 'Feel it. Don't pretend to feel it.' I'd never worked like that before."
"Well, it paid off. Watching you was like watching someone break open right in front of me. Vulnerable, stripped back..." She paused, taking a sip of her wine. "And now here you are, Golden Globe in hand."
Drew looked away, smiling sheepishly. "I'm still processing it."
"You deserve it," Y/N replied firmly. "And no one here is going to let you forget it."
Drew looked at her again, unable to ignore the spark in her gaze. She was bold—not just in what she said, but how she carried herself. It was disarming. "You've got a way with words."
"I'll take that as a compliment." Y/N smiled mischievously. "So tell me, Drew Starkey... how's the fame treating you?"
He groaned playfully, shaking his head. "You're going to make me sound insufferable."
"On the contrary, I think you're handling yourself rather well."
"You say that now," Drew teased. "Talk to me in six months when I've gone completely Hollywood."
"Mm, I don't think that's in your nature." Y/N tilted her head thoughtfully. "You seem far too grounded for that."
"You don't know me yet," Drew countered.
"Well, I'm a very good judge of character. Comes with the territory of being Daniel Craig's daughter—lots of egos to sift through."
Drew raised his brows, amused. "Is that right?"
"Absolutely. I'm rarely wrong." She gave him a sly look. "And my read on you so far is: humble, charming, and maybe a little too hard on yourself."
Drew chuckled, caught off guard. "You're bold."
"Life's too short not to be."
Drew shook his head with a small smile. "And what's your read on yourself?"
Y/N leaned in slightly, her voice dropping just enough to feel conspiratorial. "That would spoil the fun, wouldn't it?"
Drew swallowed, the teasing lilt in her voice setting him slightly off balance. There was a beat of silence between them, the kind that crackled with unspoken tension. He cleared his throat, reaching for his champagne. "You're a mystery, Y/N."
"And you're still a little flustered," she teased, her grin widening. "Do I make you nervous, Drew?"
"Maybe." Drew gave her a crooked smile, holding her gaze. "But I think you like that."
Y/N laughed, the sound light and rich. "I do. I'm not afraid to admit it."
Drew shook his head in disbelief. "You're something else."
"So I've been told." She took another sip of wine, her expression softening just a touch. "But really—what's next for you? After all this?"
Drew shrugged, glancing around the room as if the answer might be hidden somewhere among the guests. "I don't know. This feels like such a huge moment, you know? I almost don't want to think about what's next. I just want to enjoy this."
"As you should." Y/N nodded approvingly. "Don't let anyone rush you."
"I won't." Drew paused, meeting her eyes again. "But... I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little scared of what comes after. What if I can't live up to it?"
"You will," Y/N said softly, her tone sincere. "You've got the talent, Drew. The rest will follow."
Drew studied her for a moment, his chest feeling strangely warm. "You're very good at this."
"At what?"
"Making people feel seen."
Y/N smiled, her expression unreadable. "Maybe you just needed someone to see you tonight."
Drew felt his heart skip, the weight of her words settling between them. Before he could respond, Y/N placed her empty glass on the bar.
"Come on," she said, standing. "You're far too interesting to spend the whole night glued to this bar stool."
"Where are we going?" Drew asked, standing to follow her.
Y/N looked over her shoulder with a mischievous smile. "You'll just have to follow me."
And he did. Without hesitation. A “Yes, ma’am,” slipping from his lips.
Drew followed Y/N as she led him away from the bar, weaving effortlessly through the crowd. She moved with a sort of practiced ease, as if she'd spent her whole life in rooms like this—grand, glittering, and full of famous faces. Drew, still buzzing from the champagne and the residual adrenaline of the evening, was mesmerized.
"I'm dying of curiosity here, where exactly are we going?" Drew asked, his voice tinged with amusement as they turned down a quieter hallway leading away from the main party.
"Somewhere a little less chaotic," Y/N replied, glancing back at him. "Unless you'd rather keep bumping elbows with half of Hollywood."
"No complaints here," Drew said, matching her steps. "I think I've shaken enough hands tonight to last me the rest of the year."
Y/N pushed open a door at the end of the hall, revealing a small terrace overlooking the city. The night air was cool, crisp against their skin as they stepped outside. The noise of the party dulled behind them, replaced by the distant hum of Los Angeles and the quiet rustling of trees in the breeze.
"Better?" Y/N asked, turning to face him.
Drew exhaled, his shoulders relaxing as he looked out over the skyline. "Much better. Thanks."
Y/N leaned against the railing, watching him with an unreadable expression. "You looked like you needed an escape."
"I guess I did." Drew joined her, leaning beside her, their arms nearly brushing. "It's a lot, you know? I'm grateful—don't get me wrong—but... I don't think I'm cut out for the whole schmoozing thing."
"Most people aren't. They just pretend they are." Y/N's lips curled into a small smile. "Besides, you've already done the hard part tonight. The rest is noise."
Drew glanced at her, the city lights reflecting in her eyes. "You're good at this—reading people."
She shrugged lightly, her tone playful but laced with truth. "It's my party trick."
"Anything else I should know about you?" Drew teased. "Other hidden talents?"
"Plenty," she replied with a grin and a cheeky wink. "But I'm not about to give them all away at once. That would ruin the mystery."
Drew shook his head with a laugh, tucking his hands into his pockets. "You're impossible."
"I get that a lot," she said, unfazed. "But you haven't run off yet, have you?"
"No," Drew admitted, his smile softening. "I haven't."
Y/N's gaze lingered on him for a moment before she looked back out at the city. "Can I ask you something?"
"Sure."
"Did you ever think you'd end up here?" She gestured vaguely to the world around them. "Holding a Golden Globe, being the name on everyone's lips?"
Drew was quiet for a beat, choosing his words carefully. "I don't think it ever felt real enough to imagine. I wanted it, of course—I worked for it—but this? This feels like someone else's life."
"And yet, here you are."
"Here I am," he echoed, looking at her. "What about you? You've grown up in all of this. Does it ever lose its shine?"
Y/N's expression faltered, just for a moment, as if the question touched on something deeper. "Sometimes," she admitted. "It's easy to feel like you're just a part of the machinery—another face in a sea of them. But then you meet someone who reminds you why you love it, why it's worth it."
Drew tilted his head slightly, his curiosity piqued. "Is that why you act? Because you love it?"
"Because I can't not do it," Y/N said simply. "Even when it's thankless, even when no one's watching... I need it."
Drew understood that. It resonated deep within him—the need to create, to express, to push boundaries for reasons that weren't always tangible.
"I get that," he murmured. "The best moments are the ones no one else sees. The ones you do for yourself."
Y/N turned to face him fully, her eyes sharp and intent. "Exactly. And that's what makes what you did in Queer so powerful. It didn't feel performative. It felt real, like you gave a part of yourself away for it."
Drew swallowed, her words hitting him harder than he expected. "I'm honoured. That's... the best compliment I've ever gotten."
"It's true," she said softly. "And for what it's worth, I think you're just getting started."
Drew looked at her, something shifting between them in the quiet. He felt seen—more than that, he felt understood. Y/N Craig, with her razor-sharp wit and unwavering confidence, had peeled back his layers in a way no one else had managed all night.
"You really don't hold back, do you?" Drew said, his voice low.
Y/N smirked, stepping closer. "Why should I? Life's too short for subtlety."
Drew's breath hitched as the space between them narrowed. She was close enough now that he could catch the faintest trace of her perfume—something heady and elegant that suited her perfectly.
"You're dangerous," Drew said, his voice a little unsteady.
Y/N arched a brow, clearly amused. "Am I?"
"Yeah." Drew's lips curved into a small smile. "The kind of person who makes you forget to play it safe."
Y/N tilted her head, her eyes locking with his. "And do you always play it safe, Drew Starkey?"
Drew hesitated for just a second before answering. "Not tonight."
Y/N's smile widened, a knowing glint in her eyes. She reached up, her fingers brushing the lapel of his suit jacket. "Good."
The air crackled between them, thick with unspoken possibilities. Drew could feel his pulse quicken, every sense heightened as Y/N held his gaze. She was testing him, waiting to see what he'd do.
And for once, Drew didn't think—he just acted.
"Do you want to get out of here?" he asked, his voice low and rough.
Y/N's smile was slow and deliberate. "I thought you'd never ask."
Drew grinned, a mix of nerves and excitement flickering across his face as Y/N tugged him by the hand, leading him back through the terrace door. The pair slipped back into the hallway unnoticed, the music and chatter of the afterparty drowning out their hasty footsteps.
"Are we seriously sneaking our way out right now?" Drew whispered, though the grin he wore betrayed any hesitation.
"Unless you'd rather stay and talk to George Clooney about his favorite vineyards," Y/N teased, looking back at him with a mischievous smile. "Then we need to make haste!"
Drew huffed a quiet laugh. "Okay, fair point. Let's go."
They moved quickly, dodging small clusters of guests and waitstaff like a pair of teenagers sneaking out of school. Every time their eyes met, a fit of laughter threatened to spill out of them.
"Act natural," Y/N mock-coached as they passed one of the party coordinators.
"Yeah, because that's going well," Drew shot back, trying to suppress his smirk.
Finally, they pushed through a side exit and found themselves in the cool night air, away from the golden haze of the afterparty. The parking area was quiet, save for a valet who barely looked up as Y/N called for a car.
"God, I feel like we just got away with murder," Drew muttered, running a hand through his hair as he stood beside her.
Y/N grinned up at him, her cheeks flushed. "Feels kind of good, doesn't it?"
He chuckled, shaking his head. "Yeah... yeah, it really does."
The car pulled up, and Y/N wasted no time climbing into the backseat. Drew followed, sliding in beside her and shutting the door. The silence in the car was loaded, broken only by the faint hum of the radio and the distant sounds of the city.
"Your hotel, I assume?" Y/N asked, glancing at him.
"Yeah." Drew cleared his throat, suddenly feeling the weight of what they were doing hit him. He glanced at her and added softly, "If that's okay."
Y/N gave him a teasing look. "Wouldn't be here if it wasn't, would I?"
Drew felt the heat rise to his cheeks, and he covered it with a laugh. "Right. Fair point."
The ride to the hotel felt like a blur, the two of them making light conversation as they both tried to ignore the electric undercurrent running between them. When the car finally pulled up to Drew's hotel, he shot Y/N a nervous glance.
"You sure about this?" he asked quietly.
Y/N's lips twitched into a smirk as she leaned closer, her voice low and teasing. "You're not getting cold feet, are you?"
"Definitely not," Drew said quickly, earning another quiet laugh from her.
They hurried through the lobby—heads down, hands brushing but never fully touching. Drew felt like his heart was pounding in his ears as they reached the elevator. The moment the doors slid shut, Y/N let out a giggle, biting her lower lip.
"We look so suspicious right now," she whispered.
"You look suspicious," Drew shot back with a grin. "I look like someone trying not to have a heart attack."
She rolled her eyes playfully, stepping closer to him. "Relax, Golden Globe winner. No one's paying attention to us."
"That's the problem," Drew muttered under his breath, earning another soft laugh from her.
The elevator dinged, and they stepped onto Drew's floor. He fumbled briefly with the keycard as Y/N watched, clearly entertained by how flustered he'd become.
"Need help?" she teased.
"I've got it," Drew replied quickly, finally getting the door open. He held it for her as she stepped inside, and he followed, shutting it behind them.
The hotel room was simple and sleek, the lights dim as Drew tossed his keycard onto the desk. He turned to find Y/N standing near the window, looking out at the glittering cityscape. She turned to face him, her expression softer now, though still full of that familiar mischief.
But it was like something had switched in the air. Drew leaning back against the door as he studied her.
"So," he began, his voice quiet but laced with an edge that made her stomach twist, "I bet you think you're calling the shots tonight?"
Y/N raised an eyebrow, crossing her arms over her chest. "I mean, I guess we'll see who's running this show, won't we?"
Drew pushed off the door, taking a slow step toward her. His movements were deliberate, almost predatory, and Y/N found herself instinctively taking a small step back. But she wasn't about to let him see her falter. She leaned forward slightly, her lips quirking into a smirk.
"You walk like you own the place," she said, her tone teasing. "But I bet you're all talk."
Drew stopped just inches away from her, his breath warm against her skin. He lifted a hand, brushing a strand of hair away from her face, his touch surprisingly gentle for someone who seemed so intent on dominating the situation.
"Careful, Y/N," he warned softly, his voice almost a whisper. "You might be surprised at what I'm capable of."
His fingers trailed down her neck, and she shivered despite herself. What is this? she wondered, her earlier confidence beginning to waver. There was something magnetic about him, something that pulled her in despite her best efforts to maintain control.
"Or maybe," she countered, tilting her chin up defiantly, "you're just trying to scare me."
Drew's lips twitched into a smile, but there was no warmth in it. "Maybe I am," he admitted, his voice dropping lower. "But why don't we find out?"
Before she could respond, his hands were on her hips, pulling her closer until their bodies pressed together. Y/N gasped softly, her pulse quickening as his proximity overwhelmed her senses. His lips were so close to hers, his breath mingling with hers, and she couldn't help but tilt her face upward, drawn to him like a moth to a flame.
"You're playing a dangerous game," he murmured, his voice rough and intimate. "And I'm not one for playing games."
Y/N swallowed hard, suddenly very aware of how much taller and stronger he was than her. But she wasn't about to back down. "Good," she said, forcing herself to meet his gaze. "Because I like a challenge."
Drew's eyes darkened, and without warning, he dipped his head, capturing her lips in a kiss that was anything but gentle. It was commanding, urgent, and left no room for doubt about who was in charge. Y/N's hands flew to his shoulders, gripping tightly as she tried to steady herself against the wave of desire that washed over her.
His tongue traced the seam of her lips, demanding entry, and she parted them instinctively, allowing him access. The kiss deepened, grew more intense, and Y/N felt her knees weaken. Drew held her firmly, his hands sliding up her sides to cup her face, angling her head to deepen the connection.
When he finally pulled away, Y/N was breathless, her cheeks flushed and her chest rising and falling rapidly. She blinked up at him, dazed and disoriented, and realized with a jolt that she'd completely underestimated him.
"As wonderful as that was," Drew said, his voice husky and raw. "I think I need to go slower. Test your limits."
Y/N's heart pounded in her chest as she stared up at him, realisation dawning. He's not bluffing, she thought, her earlier confidence faltering. Drew was lethal, charming, and utterly in control, and she had walked right into his trap.
"What do you want from me?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
Drew's lips curved into a wicked smile as he leaned in, his breath hot against her ear. "Everything."
His hand slid from her hip to the small of her back, pressing her closer against him. The heat between them was electric, a palpable tension that threatened to ignite at any moment.
Y/N's breath came in short bursts as she tilted her head up, her lips parted in anticipation. He's not going to kiss me, she thought, not yet. But the way his eyes darkened, the way his fingers flexed against her skin, told her she was wrong. He was going to do exactly what he wanted, and she was going to let him.
"Tell me what you want," he murmured, his lips hovering just inches from hers. "Tell me how much you like this."
She hesitated for a split second, but only a split second. Her boldness was ingrained, a survival mechanism honed by years of attention and expectation. "I like it," she said, her voice steady despite the storm raging inside her. "I like that you're taking control."
Drew's smile was slow, predatory. "Good girl," he said, the words soft but laced with authority. He kissed her then, a deep, bruising kiss that left no room for doubt. His tongue swept into her mouth, demanding, exploring, claiming. Y/N melted into him, her hands gripping his shoulders for balance as the world around her dissolved into sensation.
When he finally pulled away, they were both breathless. Drew stared down at her, his blue eyes gleaming with something that made her stomach twist. "You're not in control here, sweetheart," he said, his tone conversational but firm. "Not anymore."
Y/N swallowed hard, her earlier confidence faltering. He's right, she realised. I walked into this thinking I could handle him, but he's handling me. And God, it was intoxicating.
Drew didn't wait for her response. Instead, he turned her gently, positioning her with her back to him. Her heart raced as she felt his body press against hers, his chest warm and solid against her spine. His hand cupped her breast, thumb brushing over her nipple through the fabric of her dress. She gasped, arching into his touch.
"Do you trust me?" he asked, his voice rumbling against her ear.
She nodded quickly, too caught up in the sensations to form words.
"Good," he said, his grip tightening momentarily before he released her. Y/N blinked, confused, as Drew stepped back. He moved to the bed, sitting down and leaning back on his elbows, his legs stretched out in front of him. His gaze was intense, predatory, as he watched her.
"Take off your dress," he said simply.
The command hit her like a bolt of lightning. Y/N hesitated, her hands moving instinctively to the zipper at the back of her gown. She glanced at Drew, expecting... something. A smile, maybe, or a reassuring word. But his expression remained unchanged, a mask of calm dominance.
He's serious, she thought, her pulse quickening. He wants me to do this for him.
Slowly, deliberately, she began to unzip her dress. The fabric slid down her shoulders, pooling at her hips. She shrugged it off, letting it fall to the floor in a heap. Beneath it, she wore only a lace bra and matching panties, the delicate garments doing little to conceal her arousal.
Drew's eyes roamed over her body, lingering on the curve of her waist, the swell of her breasts, the slight tremble in her thighs. "Beautiful," he murmured, his voice thick with approval. "But not enough."
Y/N's brow furrowed. "What—"
"Shh," he interrupted, raising a hand to silence her. "Don't talk. Just listen."
Her breath caught in her throat as Drew leaned forward, his movements fluid and precise. He reached out, his fingers brushing against the strap of her bra. With a flick of his wrist, he sent it sliding down her arm. Her nipples tightened immediately, peaking under his scrutiny.
"Perfect," he said, his voice a low purr. He cupped her breast in his hand, squeezing gently. Y/N bit her lip to stifle a moan, her legs trembling beneath her.
Drew's free hand reached for the waistband of her panties, tugging them downward until they clung to her hips. He paused there, his fingers tracing the edge of the fabric before hooking his thumbs into the sides and pulling them down her legs.
Y/N stood before him completely exposed, her cheeks burning with embarrassment and arousal. Drew's gaze was relentless, unapologetic, as he took in every inch of her.
"Turn around," he commanded, his voice leaving no room for argument.
She obeyed, her movements stiff with nervousness. When she faced away from him, Drew's hands returned to her body, one stroking down her spine while the other traced the curve of her ass.
"So beautiful," he whispered, his breath hot against her skin. He pressed a kiss to the nape of her neck, his lips lingering as his hands explored her body with increasing boldness.
Y/N's knees nearly buckled beneath her. This is happening, she thought, her brain struggling to keep up with the intensity of the moment. He's really doing this.
Without warning, Drew spun her around and pushed her backward onto the bed. Y/N landed with a soft thud, her heart pounding as she looked up at him. Drew loomed over her, his expression dark and commanding.
"Spread your legs," he ordered, his voice sharp and clipped.
Y/N hesitated, her mind racing. Is this what I want? The question flashed through her mind, but the answer was already there, buried beneath the haze of desire clouding her judgment.
She spread her legs, her breathing shallow and uneven. Drew's eyes flicked down, noting her readiness with a smirk.
"Good girl," he said, the words dripping with approval. He knelt between her thighs, his fingers skimming the inside of her knee before moving upward. Y/N's breath hitched as his touch neared her core, her body tensing in anticipation.
And then, quite suddenly, he stopped.
"Wait," he said, his voice firm.
Y/N blinked up at him, confusion and frustration warring within her. "What?" she managed to whisper.
Drew's smile was wicked, almost cruel. "I need to hear you say it."
"Say what?"
His fingers pressed against her inner thigh, applying just enough pressure to make her squirm. "Tell me what you want," he demanded. "Tell me how much you need this."
Y/N's cheeks flushed crimson, her confidence faltering under his unrelenting gaze. "I... I don't know," she stammered, her voice barely audible.
Drew's expression hardened, his hand withdrawing from her thigh. "Then we're done here."
"No!" she cried, desperation clawing at her throat. "Please, Drew, I—"
"Say it," he interrupted, his voice a low growl.
She hesitated, her pride warring with her need. But she needed this, more than she cared to admit. "Please," she whispered, her voice breaking. "I... I need you to fuck me."
At her admission, Drew's control snapped. His hands and lips were everywhere, leaving no part of her untouched, no moment unexplored.
And within a split-second, he pushed into her, filling her completely. She gasped, her body adjusting to his size, her muscles tightening around him. Drew began to move, his rhythm slow and steady, building the tension once more. He watched her face intently, reading every twitch and moan, adjusting his movements to maximise her pleasure. It was as if he could feel every sensation she was experiencing, as if they were connected in a way that went beyond the physical.
He leaned down, capturing her mouth in another bruising kiss. His hand found her clit, his thumb circling it in time with his thrusts.
The cacophony of sounds filled the room: slick skin connecting, Y/N's breathless whimpers and cries of pure pleasure, Drew's soft moans. But to them it sounded like a symphony; a truly bewitching one.
"Y/N," Drew said her name like a prayer, his voice ragged with volatile emotions. "Look at me."
She obeyed, meeting his gaze as tears of ecstasy blurred her vision. This was it, she realised. This was what she'd been missing. The raw, unfiltered connection, the trust, the surrender.
"Don't look away," he commanded, his voice fierce but tender. "Stay with me."
She nodded, her breathing shallow as she clung to him, her body tense with anticipation. And then, as if on cue, her climax hit her like a tidal wave, her entire body convulsing with pleasure as she screamed his name.
Drew followed soon after, burying his face in the crook of her neck as he poured himself into her, his body shuddering with release. For a moment, they lay there in silence, their hearts pounding in sync.
"So," she said quietly, breaking the silence. "Not a bad way to celebrate your first Golden Globe win, is it?"
Drew let out a soft laugh, pressing a kiss to the top of her head. "Not bad at all."
Y/N grinned, lifting her head to look at him. "Good. Because I plan on reminding you about this night for years."
Drew rolled his eyes, though he was smiling. "You're never going to let me live this down, are you?"
"Not a chance."
Drew shook his head, pulling her closer. "You're the worst."
"And yet, here we are," Y/N teased, settling back against him.
Drew couldn't argue with that. As he lay there, listening to her quiet breathing and staring up at the ceiling, he couldn't help but think that this was, without a doubt, the best night of his life.

✰ whenever you two are fucking in his office, he lets you bite his tie or his dogtags to keep you quiet - it never works though.
✰ the kinda guy to use a remote-controlled vibrator on you during a congress meeting and using A LOT of innuendos in his speech and loves to watch you squirm, he knows you're going to yell at him later for it.
✰ He likes to spoil you, since he has problems showing his feelings though the whole hydra situation - so buying you clothes, jewlerry or anything that you even remotely look at makes him so happy.
✰ But one time you felt bad and didnt want to spend his money, telling him you didnt really like anything - he'd pass you his credit card, "okay listen, with how much you spend, the softer i'm gonna fuck you when we get home - okay? I might even eat you out if you're good." AND YOU RANNNNNNN YOU RANN TO PRADA !! he fulfilled his promise and you got a shit ton of clothes and food and hey - bucky got a meal too ig....

✰ You used to be shy, sweet and innocent before Bucky.

Spotlight on Us || Lee Jihoon



Pairing: Idol Jihoon x Idol Reader Genre: Fluff, Idol romance Summary: Jihoon and Y/N are forced to sit together at an award show, causing endless cheers, teasing, and viral moments. From sneaky glances to Woozi protectively covering Y/N with his blazer, the night is full of heart-fluttering chaos. When Jihoon tears up during his speech and sees Y/N crying too, it becomes clear—no matter how much they pretend, everyone knows. Feel free to make requests || M.list
Jihoon knew this would happen. He saw it coming from a mile away.
Yet, here he was, forced to sit beside you at an award show, and the crowd was absolutely losing it.
Seungcheol had nearly fallen over laughing when Jihoon realized where he had to sit. Jeonghan had patted his shoulder like a proud parent.
And now? Now, he was trapped.
The moment the camera panned over to your table, the cheers hit like a tidal wave. The entire venue shook with the sound of fans screaming their lungs out, and Jihoon could already see the headlines forming in real-time.
"Woozi and Y/N: Power Couple of the Century?"
"Woozi's Reaction to Sitting Next to Y/N is Priceless!"
"Destiny? Fate? Coincidence? We Think Not!"
He sighed, rubbing his temple as Seungcheol cackled beside him. "Hyung, it's like a concert in here," Dino whispered, wide-eyed.
Jihoon glanced at you, only to find you smirking. "Did you plan this?" he accused.
You feigned innocence, sipping your drink. "Me? I would never."
Liar.
The second the camera landed on your table, the screaming was deafening. The venue, which had been relatively calm just moments ago, erupted.
Jihoon fought every urge to groan as he kept his expression neutral, while you—completely unbothered—smiled and gave a polite wave. You were enjoying this way too much.
"Look at you," you teased, voice barely audible over the noise. "Are you blushing?"
Jihoon scoffed. "It's hot in here."
"Uh-huh, sure," you mused, nudging his knee under the table.
And then, as if things weren’t bad enough, the host on stage decided to make things worse.
"So, I think we have to talk about one of the most beloved pairings in the industry right now," the MC said, grinning. "Our audience is going crazy for these two—Woozi and Y/N, everyone!"
The camera panned right back to you both, a split screen of your reactions broadcasting to millions.
Jihoon shut his eyes. "Kill me."
Meanwhile, you? You blew a kiss to the camera.
The screams reached another level.
The members of Seventeen lost it. Seungcheol clapped like a seal. DK was howling. Jeonghan actually got out of his seat to dramatically bow in your direction, like you had just won an Oscar.
"You're enjoying this," Jihoon muttered, side-eyeing you.
"Oh, absolutely," you replied, resting your chin on your hand as if you lived for this moment.
His phone vibrated. Another message from Jeonghan.
[Jeonghan]: Just kiss on camera. I dare you.
Jihoon choked on air. You glanced at his phone and laughed. "What's he saying?"
"Nothing," he snapped, locking it immediately.
And then, it got even worse.
A special segment played—a montage of all the best collaborations of the year. And right there, in full HD, was a clip of you and Jihoon from a previous music show, standing way too close, exchanging small smiles.
It ended with a close-up of Jihoon watching you perform, eyes soft in a way that was damning.
The camera cut back to you both just in time to catch Jihoon covering his face with both hands.
Absolute pandemonium.
Even you were giggling now. "Wow, you really don’t help your case."
"I hate this," Jihoon grumbled into his hands.
You leaned in slightly. "Hate it enough to run away?"
Jihoon peeked at you through his fingers.
You smiled. The same smile that made his heart stutter every single time. The same smile that made him—despite all his complaining—stay exactly where he was.
Every time the camera even slightly panned in your direction, the audience roared in approval. At one point, the big screen accidentally caught Jihoon sneaking glances at you when you weren’t looking, and the fans lost it.
He knew the fancams would be everywhere by the time he got back to the dorms.
And then—disaster struck.
During a short intermission, you shifted slightly in your seat, adjusting your dress, when you realized—it was shorter than you thought.
The realization hit at the worst possible moment because, just as you moved, the camera cut back to your table.
You froze.
Jihoon noticed immediately. His sharp eyes flickered to you, then to the screen, and without thinking, he reached for something—his blazer.
With swift, natural movements, he leaned in and draped it over your lap, completely casual, like he had done it a million times before.
The camera caught everything.
A split screen showed Jihoon placing his blazer over you while you whispered a flustered, “Jihoon, what are you doing?”
"Just wear it," he muttered, pretending to focus on the stage.
Fans erupted.
Jeonghan burst into laughter, clapping his hands as if Woozi had just confessed on national television. Seungkwan gasped so dramatically that DK had to hold him back, and Mingyu was already on his phone, probably tweeting about it.
The big screen replayed the moment in slow motion, zooming in on Jihoon's effortlessly protective gesture.
Jihoon stiffened when he saw it. "You have got to be kidding me."
His phone blew up.
[Jeonghan]: ROMANTIC LEAD ENERGY!!!
[Mingyu]: Jihoon, OUR SWEETHEART???
[Hoshi]: THIS IS CRAZYYYYY
[Seungkwan]: GOODBYE, WORLD. THIS IS THE CUTEST THING I’VE EVER SEEN.
The captions wrote themselves.
"Lee Jihoon, the definition of boyfriend material."
"Woozi naturally protecting Y/N?? We are living in a fanfiction."
"When will my boyfriend be like this?"
Meanwhile, you were trying so hard to hold back your laughter. "Did you have to be so smooth about it?"
Jihoon cleared his throat. "It wasn’t smooth."
"You literally just gave me your blazer without blinking."
"Because you needed it," he huffed, crossing his arms.
You peeked up at him, a teasing glint in your eyes. "…Thanks, Jihoon."
He looked away immediately, ears turning red. "Shut up."
Jihoon should have known the night wasn’t over yet.
After all the teasing, the chaotic fan reactions, and the never-ending camera zoom-ins, the moment had finally arrived—Seventeen’s category was being announced.
The entire group sat up straighter, hands clasped together, nervous energy crackling in the air. You could feel it from your seat beside Jihoon, his usually steady hands slightly curled into fists on his lap.
“And the winner is…”
The pause was agonizing.
"SEVENTEEN!"
The entire venue exploded.
Seventeen shot up from their seats, hugging each other tightly, overwhelmed with joy. Fans screamed, members cheered, and Jihoon—despite his usual composure—looked stunned.
You watched as Seungcheol pulled Jihoon into a tight hug, and that’s when you saw it—his eyes, glossy with tears.
The camera captured the moment perfectly. Jihoon, the man who poured his heart and soul into every note, every lyric, standing there, wiping at his eyes as the weight of everything hit him all at once.
And suddenly, your own eyes burned.
You covered your mouth with your hands, trying to hold back the emotions bubbling up inside you. You had seen Jihoon work himself to the bone, staying in the studio until dawn, striving for perfection in everything he did.
He deserved this. They all did.
Jihoon stood on stage, microphone in hand, staring out at the sea of fans and glowing lightsticks. The award sat heavy in his grasp, but not as heavy as the emotions swelling in his chest.
The cheers had barely died down when Seungcheol, ever the leader, began their speech—thanking the fans, the staff, the families, and everyone who had supported them.
But when the mic was passed to Jihoon, the crowd fell into an expectant hush.
Jihoon took a deep breath. “Um…” He let out a small chuckle, voice already wavering. “I told myself I wasn’t going to cry.”
The audience cheered, as if encouraging him to let it out.
Jihoon swallowed hard, gripping the microphone tighter. “This… this award means a lot. More than I can put into words. We’ve worked so hard, and to be standing here, receiving this, it still feels unreal.” He exhaled shakily, blinking rapidly, but the tears still escaped, rolling down his cheeks.
Seventeen members immediately reached for him—Jeonghan placing a hand on his back, Seungkwan nodding at him reassuringly. The crowd cooed, some fans already tearing up themselves.
The camera panned across the group, capturing their emotions, before shifting—straight to you.
Sitting at your table, eyes glassy with unshed tears, you watched Jihoon with nothing but pure admiration and pride. You hadn’t even realized you were crying until the camera lingered on you, your lips pressed together to keep from outright sobbing.
And just like that, the entire venue reacted.
Fans screamed.
The members on stage noticed, and before Jihoon could even process what was happening, Jeonghan grabbed his shoulders and spun him around to face the screen.
There, clear as day, was you, wiping at your cheeks, eyes fixed on him like he was the most important person in the world.
Jihoon's face turned red instantly. He quickly turned back, covering his face with his sleeve, but it was too late.
Mingyu burst out laughing, Joshua clapped his hands like an excited kid, and even Seungcheol cracked up, patting Jihoon's back.
“Looks like we’re not the only ones crying,” Seungkwan teased into the mic, making the crowd go wild.
Jihoon groaned into his hands, but despite his embarrassment, he peeked up at the camera again—at you.
And in that moment, as he saw you smiling softly through your tears, he couldn’t even be mad.
Because no matter how much he pretended to ignore it, no matter how much he groaned when the cameras caught you both—deep down, he knew.
There was no one he’d rather share the spotlight with.

⋆⭒˚.⋆ Self-On Kode with Mark ⋆⭒˚.⋆
idol!Mark x f!idol!reader
summary: you and you boyfriend Mark are paired up for an interview, but do you even know you're texting each other? No.
(cw: f!reader, idol!reader)
. ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁ ⟡ ݁ . ⊹ ₊ ݁.
Mark got comfortable in the plush, pink chair of the Kode set with a shy smile, "Ah hello, I'm Mark from NCT." He pushes his earbuds into his ears and begins playing his music, "today I'll be known as Cheetah. Um, I couldn't really think of anything else and the fans already call me a cheetah so it was easy to think of."
On the opposite side of the wall, you settle into your own chair while smiling at the camera while introducing yourself, "I was so confused when I was asked to pick a wild cat as my screen name. It was such an oddly specific category, and even weirder when you told me cheetah was already taken. Anyway, I chose Tiger because they're the next prettiest."
Your music begins to play through your earbuds as your phone vibrates from the first message from your partner. "Yo?" you read in confusion, staring at your screen with pure confusion, "is that it? This is a man isn't it? Girls don't talk like this."
On the other side of the wall Mark laughs softly, covering his mouth as he reads the message. "This person is so happy. I've never seen anyone write hi with this many i's."
You and Mark text back and forth for a while, sharing your hobbies and sending memes back and forth until the both of your are giggling madly on your respective sides of the set. Of course, after nearly 2 years together you'd know how to make each other laugh, even without knowing you're texting each other. Your partner still doesn't give you any identifying traits or hints as to who they are. Well, besides clearly being a man based on how he texts.
Following the instruction of the staff, you send a screenshot of your home screen. You pout, feeling slightly bad for your partner. Just two days ago you'd gotten a new phone and hadn't yet had the time to make it yours. It was stuck with the boring default background and a handful of apps you considered to be essential. You explain as much with the text accompanying the screenshot.
And Mark's screenshot? Well, it might as well be just as boring as yours. He has the blur set on the photo so all you see is an indistinct mess of colors. Two distinct blobs which could be the shape of two people or two flowers or two guitars or two cats.
"Wow," you say as you typed out the word, "we are two very boring people. You really don't want me to know who you are."
Mark laughs out brightly while he reads your text, "me? You haven't even changed your own yet!"
"I told you I just got a new phone and haven't had time yet!" You laugh to yourself while typing out your message.
Your joking back and forth gets the two of you off track while you playfully poke fun at each other back and forth until the staff ask you both who you think you're texting. Mark looks at the camera while he tries to think, "I have no clue. It's a girl, surely but it could be anyone. Do you pick random people off the street to do these videos?"
On the other side of the wall, you blush softly, covering your face while your face cools down, "is it weird if I say it's my boyfriend? He just seems so much like Mark."
It's one of the few times you've ever referred to Mark as your boyfriend for any sort media. You and Mark had technically been a public couple for about a year now, since your respective companies had come out with their statements to reveal your relationship. How you'd been able to conceal a year of your relationship was beyond the both of you. Well, a lot of dark, oversized clothes and hats and masks to conceal your faces.
After the company statements, you and Mark seemed to be even better at hiding. You barely glanced at each other at award shows, and if you did, it was only friendly, nothing that could be interpreted as anything else. There were very few glimpses into your relationship beyond birthday and anniversary posts with obscured faces and sharing each other's most recent comebacks on your stories. Privacy was something you both valued and of course you were more than ok with doing any type of promotion with Mark, it just never worked out that way. Until now (not that you knew). Plus, it wasn't like this interview would give anyone any important details of your relationship anyway.
When the staff prompt you both to share a screenshot of your most recently listened to songs, you stare at your screen with a look of blank surprise, "this is just a mix of Drake and Justin Bieber. It's Mark, it has to be."
You zoom in on the picture, mumbling about how you see more music that is so distinctly Mark while on the other side Mark looks at the screenshot you send excitedly. "She's a fan! Of me! Wow, she's listened to Child and Golden Hour and 200! Ok, I have to chill out a bit," he tells himself even as he types out his message telling you that you have good music taste.
You snort at his message just as the staff laugh at the exchange at the same time. The head producer instructs you both to find your baby pictures to send to the other.
You look up from your phone, looking at the camera and the staff, "surely, you'd think a couple who have been together for this long have seen pictures of each other when they were kids, right?" The staff nods in response before you speak again, "well, we haven't! I've only seen what has been posted online. Same for him!"
Mark sends you a picture of him as a baby where he's a few months old and you coo immediately. You zoom in as close as you can drawing your phone closer to you face as you star adoringly at the baby on your screen. "He's the cutest little thing I've ever seen! I've never seen a cuter baby in my life! Oh, I just want to squeeze his cheeks and cuddle him," you gush over the adorable picture of the chubby baby boy with an adoring look on your face.
Mark looks at his phone, the camera, the staff, his phone again, the camera again with a look of pure and utter confusion as he looks at what he can only assume is a child covered in frosting. "You can barely tell this is a human, how is this supposed to help me figure out who I've been texting?" Mark asks, zooming in on the picture while the staff bursts out in laughter. When he finds out who he's talking to...
So when he staff ask for a final guess as to who you've been texting you say Mark's name confidently while Mark ultimately utters out, "Maybe someone from a girl group... maybe it's Yeri."
When the staff ask you both to stand and get ready to face each other to reveal yourselves. Instead of walking toward Mark, you find yourself behind the set so you're behind Mark.
Mark walks forward slowly, waiting to see when he'll spot his interview partner, but when he sees an empty spot, he faces the camera and the staff with a quizzical smile, "was I talking to a ghost?"
They laugh softly and murmur amongst themselves while you finally reach forward and tap his shoulder softly. Mark jumps, completely scared by the touch. He turns to you with his eyes wide with surprise, "you?!"
"Yes, me!"
After you're both seated at the high top table and calmed down from the surprise meeting with on another, you're both ready to talk to each other in front of the camera once again. You smile softly at your boyfriend, "I knew it was you."
Mark scoffs, "how?"
"Yo," you repeat the word from his first message with a poor imitation of his voice, "all the Drake, all the Bieber-- oh my gosh, Mark! Your baby picture!"
Mark laughs, taking your hand in his out of view of the camera, "speaking of baby pictures, what did you send me?"
Your brows furrow softly at his question, "I sent you a picture of me as a baby."
"There's no way that was you. You look like a little cake monster."
"It was from my first birthday..." you pout at Mark.
"Don't get pouty with me, you were completely covered, how could I have known? I can pout too! My face used to be your homescreen and now it's the plain default screen," Mark tells you with a playful pointed look.
"Mark," you deadpan, "you were with me when I got my new phone."
"Oh yeah..." Mark blushes with embarrassment.
"Anyway, who did you think I was?"
Mark squeezes your hand nervously beneath the table, his thumb rubbing at your knuckles a little anxiously, "I had no clue, to be honest. I knew you were a girl but I didn't know it was you."
When the staff ask Mark how he didn't know but you did, all he can do is blush and laugh out a nervous response. You turn to him with a playful accusatory look of your own, "yeah, how come you didn't know?"
"I don't really pay attention to how you text, just what we text about..."
You and the staff coo as you pinch his cheeks and cup his face lovingly, "you're so cute, but you were cuter as a baby."
"My mom says the same thing," Mark rolls his eyes.
Your conversation winds down and you both pose for the selfie at the end. You both pull silly faces, cheeks pressed together and eyes scrunched shut with your tongues sticking out.
Despite the stupid picture you both took, the screen fades to black with a completely different picture of you and Mark laughing while looking at each other with hearts in your eyes and bright smiles on your faces.

Plus one 4/9



Summary : When Lando Norris realizes he's the only F1 driver attending the Monaco F1 movie premiere without a girlfriend, he panics and convinces Oscar to help him find a last-minute plus one.
Author note : I get this story idea after the private projection of the F1 movie with all the drivers in Monaco (also can we imagine they weren't wearing their team kit and actually did dress up).
Genre : pure fluff
Serie masterlist
Main masterlist
The credits began to roll, and the house lights rose gently, flooding the once-cozy darkness with cold brightness. Applause echoed around the theater as the names of actors, producers, drivers, and directors lit up the screen. People stood, stretched, straightened their jackets.
And just like that, the spell broke.
The cocoon Lando and Y/N had shared in the dark, the stillness, the little glances, the quiet laughter during that scene, vanished like smoke. Their seats were just seats again. Her hand was no longer on his arm. And he didn’t know what to say.
He rose slowly, brushing invisible dust from his trousers, glancing toward her. She was smiling softly, still processing. He wanted to say something.
What did you think? or You okay after that hospital scene? or even just Thanks for coming but he didn’t get the chance.
Because Lily appeared instantly.
“Oh my God,” she said, looping an arm around Y/N’s. “That scene. I thought I was going to melt into my seat.”
Y/N laughed loudly, clearly relieved someone else had brought it up first. “Right? That was so intense. I didn’t know where to look. The sound design alone deserves an award.”
Lily grinned. “I could feel Carmen holding in her breath next to me. George was so uncomfortable. Did you see his face?”
They dissolved into laughter, already halfway down the aisle, wrapped in their own moment. Y/N didn’t even look back.
Lando stood there, still beside his seat, watching her disappear.
Oscar tilted his head. “Uh-oh. I know that look. You’re spiraling.”
“I’m not spiraling.”
“You are absolutely spiraling.”
“I’m not.”
“You look like you just got dumped by a girl who doesn’t know she was your girlfriend.”
Lando glared at him. “Well it's your fault, you didn’t tell her.”
“Tell her what?”
“That it was supposed to be a date. You said you’d explain!”
Oscar blinked. “I said I’d text her. Which I did. I said you needed a plus one. What more do you want? A powerpoint presentation?”
“You made it sound like I needed a replacement.”
Oscar burst out laughing. “Oh, come on. You’re blaming me because you suddenly fall in love after one movie?”
“I’m blaming you because she thinks this was a girl’s night out!”
Oscar shrugged. “To be fair, she had more fun with Lily than you.”
“That’s not helping!”
Oscar put his hands up. “What do you want from me, man? If I’d told her it was a date-date, she never would’ve agreed!”
“You don’t know that!”
“I do. I absolutely do.”
Lando crossed his arms. “She held my arm during the movie.”
Oscar gasped dramatically. “Oh my God! Call the wedding planner!”
Lando shoved his shoulder. “Shut up.”
“Maybe if you had told her she looked nice instead of staring at her, she’d have picked up on the vibe!” Oscar said, adjusting his jacket.
“I did tell her she looked nice!”
“When?”
“Before the movie.”
Oscar squinted. “No you didn’t.”
“I meant to.”
“That’s not the same thing!”
Lando groaned. “This is the worst night of my life.”
Oscar snorted. “You were literally on screen. A whole movie about your job. And you're out here pouting like someone forgot your birthday.”
“She called herself a fill-in!” Lando hissed.
Oscar wiped a tear of laughter from his eye. “You’re so dramatic. Do you want me to go over there and tell her for you? ‘Hi, Y/N, Lando caught feelings somewhere between the opening credits and the awkward sex scene.’”
Lando exhaled, staring across the room. Y/N was still with Lily, laughing about something. Probably about him. Or his tragic inability to flirt.
The after-party was in full swing.
The rooftop venue above the theater was everything you’d expect in Monaco: sleek lighting, a terrace overlooking the glowing harbor and champagne flowing like water.
Lando stood near a tall table, trying not to look as out of place as he felt. Y/N was laughing with Lily and sipping something pink from a flute like she belonged in this world, even though she’d insisted all evening she didn’t.
He hadn’t spoken to her since they left the theater.
Oscar, being a menace, appeared beside him with a wine glass and a grin. “So. What’s the hold-up now? You gonna make a move or just watch her from across the party ?”
“I’m waiting for the right moment.”
“She’s not a solar eclipse, mate. You don’t need to time it with the NASA.”
“She’s talking to Lily again.” Lando glanced toward the other side of the terrace. “They’ve been talking for twenty minutes. What could they possibly still be discussing?”
“I don’t know. Probably the sex scene again.” Oscar smirked and continue teasing him. “She did say it made her want to hide under her chair. Maybe you traumatized her by existing.”
Lando shot him a look.
Oscar shrugged. “Or maybe, and this is wild, she just doesn’t know it was a date. Because someone” he jabbed a finger toward Lando’s chest, “didn’t clarify anything. And someone else” he pointed to himself “may have been not clear enough in his text.”
Lando groaned. “Alright, fine. I’m going.”
“That’s the spirit. Please don't be awkward.”
Lando straightened his jacket, walked toward her, mentally rehearsing a million ways to start the conversation.
But before he could reach her, Lily spotted him.
She smirked. “Landooo,” she sing-songed, immediately elbowing Y/N. “Look who’s finally decided to say hi again.”
Y/N turned, smiling. “Hey! You okay? You kind of disappeared after the movie.”
“I didn’t disappear. I was... mingling.”
“Alone?”
He blinked. “Strategic mingling.”
Lily sipped her drink, clearly not buying it. “So strategic that you ended up standing still for twenty minutes behind the gelato cart.”
Y/N laughed. “Is that where you were? I thought I imagined that.”
“I was...thinking,” Lando muttered.
“About what?” she asked, genuinely curious.
“How do you feel about sunsets?” he blurted.
Y/N blinked. “What?”
Lando cleared his throat. “Sorry. I meant, sunset views. The view up here is really nice. I thought maybe you’d want to see it. With me. For a minute.”
“Oh.” She tilted her head. “Are we not already seeing it from here?”
“No, I mean… yeah, but like…just with me. Away from everyone else.”
Lily coughed into her drink to hide a laugh.
Y/N blinked again. “Sure?”
Lando exhaled through his nose like he’d just been given a time extension on an exam.
They stepped aside toward a quiet corner of the rooftop. The breeze was softer there. The glow from the city sparkled across the dark water. Romantic. Intentional. Perfect.
Lando tried to speak. Failed.
Y/N leaned on the railing. “It’s pretty.”
“Yeah,” he said. “You too—I mean—it’s pretty too. The view.”
She smiled, not really reacting.
He stared at her profile. “Did you have a good time tonight?”
“Yeah,” she said. “The movie was really good. Intense. But good.”
“Even the awkward part?”
She laughed softly. “Even with the awkward part. Do you liked it ?”
He nodded. “I wasn’t really paying attention to the movie.”
“No?”
“I was watching you.”
That made her glance at him, surprised. “Oh?”
He swallowed. “Yeah. You just… you looked so into it. Like your reactions to things were better than the film.”
She blinked. “Oh. That’s… sweet. I think?”
Lando looked down at his hands, then up at her, then… blurted it out.
“So, listen—I just… need to say something.”
Y/N tilted her head, sipping her drink, waiting.
“I kind of thought this was a date,” he said. “For me, I mean.”
Her brows shot up. “Oh.”
“I mean, I thought I was being clear. With the whole ‘plus one’ thing. And inviting you. Actualy Oscar propose it first and then I ask him to text you. Which—okay, that part was a bad idea, but I thought you knew what this was. I know we just met but I wanted you to come here with me tonight, not jus as a fill-in”
Y/N’s cheeks flushed instantly. She looked down, fiddling with her glass. “Oh. Oh God.”
“I didn’t mean to freak you out—”
“No! No, you didn’t! I just—Lando, I didn’t know.”
“You didn’t?”
She shook her head, groaning. “I thought you had an extra ticket. Like, your original date bailed or something. And Lily told me to come with her, and Oscar texted me like it was all casual, so I just figured… I don’t know, that you had no one else to bring.”
Lando blinked. “You thought you were a backup?”
“I thought I was here for the vibes!” she said, covering her face. “I was excited to see the movie and spend the night with Lily. I didn’t realize I was your date. That actually explains so much.”
He laughed under his breath. “What does it explain?”
She dropped her hands and smiled sheepishly. “Why you were acting weird. Like nervous-weird.”
“I was trying to be cool.”
“Well… you weren’t,” she said, then immediately added, “In a cute way!”
He laughed for real this time, warm and a little relieved. “You were so calm, though.”
Her face scrunched up. “I was not! I just looked like it.”
He raised an eyebrow. “Seriously?”
“I was freaking out inside,” she admitted. “I kept thinking, ‘oh my God, I’m sitting next to Lando Norris at a movie premiere, try not to say anything stupid.’ So I just… said nothing at all.”
He grinned. “If that’s you freaking out, I need lessons.”
She laughed, eyes crinkling. “I avoided you most of the night, didn’t I?”
“A little.”
“I was kind of… intimidated,” she said, almost whispering it.
“You were?”
Y/N nodded. “You’re you. You’ve got a Netflix special and a race car and a fanbase that tracks your every moves. I have a biology degree and anxiety.”
He looked at her, fond. “I’ve got anxiety too.”
“Well, great. We can panic in harmony then.”
They both smiled.
Then she paused, suddenly serious again. “Also, um. This is awkward, but… I kind of maybe have a crush on you.”
Lando blinked. “What?”
“Like, before tonight.”
“You do?”
“I did. I do.” She rolled her eyes at herself. “God, this is embarrassing.”
“No, it’s not,” he said, grinning now. “It’s not at all.”
She peeked at him. “Lily knows. So I think Oscar knows too.”
Lando laughed. “That little gremlin.”
“Right? I should’ve known it was suspicious when he asked me if I ‘liked red carpets.’ He was so casual about it.”
“So he did set us up.”
“Yeah,” she said, smiling. “And I didn’t realize it until just now.”
They stood in silence again, this time smiling like two people who finally figured out they’ve been reading the same book.
“Okay,” Lando said. “So we agree. This was a date.”
“Technically retroactively, yes.”
“And we’re both awkward.”
“Painfully.”
“And we both like each other.”
She looked up at him. “Seems like it.”
He grinned. “So if I asked again, clearly, directly this time, what would you say?”
She leaned in, her voice lower now. “I’d say yes.”
“To a real date?”
“To whatever you want,” she said softly. “Just... no matchmaking texts from Oscar.”
“I’ll block him.”
She laughed and bumped his arm gently with hers.
He glanced around. “You want to go? Grab real food somewhere that doesn’t sparkle?”
“God, yes. I’m starving. I’ve been pretending to like those fancy canapé things all night.”
“Same. I had three and still don’t know what any of them were.”
They turned together toward the stairwell, but not before looking back one last time.
The empty terrace. The glittering skyline. Their friends somewhere inside, probably watching through a window, smirking.
“They’re going to be insufferable,” Y/N said.
“They already are.”
“And you’re not mad they set us up?”
Lando smiled. “No. I think... maybe they were onto something.”
She looked at him, that familiar, quiet smile he’d fallen for all evening.
“Yeah,” she said. “Maybe they were.”
And together, under the soft Monaco night, they slipped away from the rooftop, not just as teammates’ friends or accidental plus-ones, but something quietly beginning.
Something real.

"bc he's a loser" LMAO (thankyouu!!)
Don’t Walk Away From Me|Pairing: Jack Abbott x Reader
The door slammed behind you harder than you meant. Not that it mattered.
Your hands were shaking as you leaned on the rusted railing of the hospital's back steps, the chill of Pittsburgh air cutting through your scrubs like paper. You just needed a second. A breath. A break from—
"Okay, wow." Jack’s voice followed seconds later. "So we’re slamming doors now? Cool. Was just wondering where we landed on the maturity scale today."
You didn’t turn around.
"I needed air, Jack. That’s all."
"Right. And you had to get it dramatically. Like mid-argument Broadway walk-off level dramatic."
You clenched your jaw, the tears building against your will. “I’m not doing this right now.”
"No, no, you don’t get to ‘not do this.’ You stormed out after basically accusing me of—what? Caring too much? Being too involved? Forgive me for giving a shit, sweetheart."
"Jack," you snapped, whipping around, "you talk over me constantly when you're mad. You bulldoze every feeling I have until I’m so spun around I start questioning if I’m even making sense."
You looked up at him—storm in your eyes, chaos in your chest. “I needed one thing today. One ounce of support, and instead I got that—whatever that was in there.”
Jack blinked. The words landed harder than you expected. He stepped back, rubbed a hand down his face, then sighed, soft.
“Okay,” he said finally. “I deserved that.”
Silence.
He shifted awkwardly. You knew he wasn’t good at this. Processing feelings that weren’t neatly filed under ‘sarcasm’ or ‘making dumb jokes to defuse tension.’ But he tried. Always tried.
“I’m… not good at being wrong,” he admitted, running a hand through his hair. “Or scared. Especially not both at the same time.”
He glanced over at you, squinting in the streetlight glow.
“But for the record,” he added with a smirk, “I was mostly mad because you looked me in the eye and told me you didn’t need me. That was rude. And honestly? False. You definitely need me. I keep this operation charming.”
You laughed—more like a watery scoff—but he grinned like he’d just won an award.
“There it is,” he said, stepping closer. “The laugh. God, I missed that. Felt like I was arguing with a robot version of you in there. Kind of scary.”
“You’re such an idiot.”
He nodded solemnly. “Certified. But I’m your idiot, and I’m trying here, okay?”
You shook your head, but you didn’t move when he came close. He didn’t touch you, not yet, just stood there breathing beside you, both of you watching your breath cloud in the cold.
After a beat, he nudged you with his elbow. “Want me to sing you a sad song about it? I can do jazz hands.”
“I will push you down these stairs.”
“Romance isn’t dead,” he whispered, mock wounded.
You cracked a smile. Just barely.
And then Jack finally reached for your hand—tentatively, reverently—and laced his fingers with yours.
“I love you,” he said, quiet this time. “Even when we’re fighting. Especially then, actually, because you’re mean as hell when you’re angry and I find it wildly hot. Just FYI.”
You rolled your eyes but squeezed his hand back. “You’re exhausting.”
“Yep. But you keep coming back. Guess that means we’re stuck.”
You leaned into his shoulder. “Guess so.”
And for the first time that day, you finally breathed.

cherry kisses- l.norris



summary: all's fair in love and fake relationships, yet Lando Norris somehow still finds a way to play dirty
pairing: fakeboyfriend! lando norris x fem! fakegirlfriend! actress! reader
୨ৎ⋅୨ৎ⋅୨ৎ⋅୨ৎ⋅୨ৎ
Falling for Lando Norris was a disaster waiting to happen, and one you chose to avoid. On paper, you two were the perfect power couple, your instagram pages meticulously curated with a snippet of each other in every post, perfectly planned paparazzi picture of you kissing outside pubs or bars or award shows, engagement rumours every few months- rumours that weren’t helped by Lando constantly choosing to get himself a new watch or piece of jewellery a week before you were seen together.
But in the real world, you two were simply business ventures to the other. Entirely uninterested in each other's lives unless it pertained to the contract. He came to support you at award shows or showed up on set to snap some photos, and you went to races to support him.
Nothing else. No need for it in your life anyway. No room for silly boys, and Lando Norris was the silliest of all boys.
୨ৎ⋅୨ৎ⋅
“You look pretty,” he smirked from across the room. He had the damn smirk that he always thought would make you break, but it never did.
“Thank you,” you smiled pleasantly, the image of a perfectly PR-trained celebrity. You really did wonder what they taught F1 drivers about PR, and then you realised it was probably just Lando enjoying breaking the rules.
“What’s the occasion?” he whispered, wrapping his arms around you. You two were bound for a Ralph Lauren event. Lucky you!
“Have to look good for my boyfriend, don’t I?” you faked a bright smile, which made him laugh, and you rolled your eyes. You pushed his arms off of you and took another sip of your tea.
“So I’m officially your boyfriend now?” he teased.
You sighed, exasperated. “That’s what it says in the contract, doesn’t it?” You watched as his smirk fell for a split second, almost… upset? Hardly. He didn’t care, and neither did you. “And anyway, I was talking about Keegan.”
He giggled behind you in the mirror. You looked up and met his eyes with an awkward smile, and you felt his hand rest on your hip.
And you felt it. You felt the burn of your skin under his touch. You felt the way his breathing was much too quick for someone calm. You felt the way he was cautiously wanting more.
“We’re a pretty good-looking couple when you think about it,” he spoke slowly, but that same playfulness laced his tone. “Keegan’s too short for you.”
You scoffed, laughing. “Alright 5’9. Christ,” you chuckled, breaking away from him. “Alright, I have everything, ready?”
He stared at you for a moment, then turned towards the door of his hotel room with a smirk. He opened it, waiting for you to walk through. What a-. “Always ready, Sugar.”
That damned nickname, you thought, It was one time. You walked through the door with your head held high, then grabbed his hand when you got to the foyer.
It was going to be a long day.
୨ৎ⋅୨ৎ⋅
He watched as you made your way around the room, dutifully greeting those who needed greeting, introducing yourself to people you had to, and generally being your perfect self. It was annoying, you annoyed him. But there was one thing he liked above all else, which was annoying you, which he seemed to be pretty spectacular at.
“You keep staring,” Keegan leaned in. “You do realise she’s not your actual girlfriend, right?” he chuckled, and Lando joined in, but he couldn’t help but feel the tightness in his chest worsen when he saw one of your old cast mates put his hand on your shoulder.
He frowned at the scene in front of him, then brushed it off. He knew you’d never do anything to fuck up the contract. While yes, he technically got more professional benefit from it (exposure, more fans, etc.), you got more personal benefits (aka, money), and you wanted to fully fund your directorial debut, so you needed all the cash you could get. “I know,” he chuckled. “It’d look weird if I wasn’t looking at her though,” he explained as he took another sip of his milkshake. “She’s supposed to be my one and only true love, after all.”
Keegan scoffed. “Tell that to the girls in Miami.”
The guilt in Lando’s gut twisted, making his last sip go down funny. Miami was a mistake, one he hadn’t told you about, but a mistake all the same. “Shut up man-”
“Keegan!” you smiled, wrapping him up in one of your hugs. He hugged you right back, just as tight. Lando frowned. You turned to him. “Hey baby,” you smiled and pressed a quick kiss to his cheek, which he accepted gratefully by pulling you into his side.
“Hey Sugar,” he smirked as you rolled your eyes.
“Where does that come from?” Keegan asked. You slapped a hand over Lando’s smirking mouth before he could explain.
“Don’t ask,” you scoffed, dropping your hand when he licked it. “You’re a child, y’know that?”
“How was Jer?” he asked, his eyes levelling you. Was he seriously jealous here? Was he jealous of you and Jeremy?
“He was great. Was wondering where you were, actually,” you answered through gritted teeth.
“Maybe I’ll see him before the end of the night,” he shrugged, but he was anything but calm. “Go say hi.”
“You should,” you nodded, taking a sip of his milkshake. “He’d love to see you.”
Keegan stared at the two of you with a confused expression, then ultimately decided to slowly back away as you two played 5D chess with your words.
“Taste this,” Lando offered out a cherry from the top of his milkshake, a wicked plan forming in his head. “I know how much you love cherries.”
You did, in fact, love cherries. Despite your reason to doubt him, Lando would never do anything to break the contract, you knew that. You leaned in to catch the cherry in your mouth, noticing the camera on you two. He pulled it out of your reach until he captured your lips with his own in a gross, open-mouthed kiss.
The kind that sets your entire body on fire. The kind you leaned in to. The kind that made his other hand circle your waist and distract you enough so that he could slip it further down. The kind that made him feel completely and utterly fucked for you.
You both pulled back, just staring at each other, until you finally bit the cherry, and turned back to the party, knowing that clip would be all over social media by the next day. You huffed and plastered your best fake smile back on your face, and Lando was left feeling distraught by the counter.
Like you said, long night.
