Hot take but fat people are valid even when they aren't" healthy". Like believe it or not fat people deserve basic human rights and dignity even if they eat nothing but fast food and never exercise.

You shook your hand with Nanami's. Smiling softly at him.
โ€œI see your wife is now playing your game..Gojo?โ€ Said Mei Mei wearing an amused expression,
only earning a glare in return from the man sitting in front of her.
โ€œCome on, don't tell me Nanami triggered your jealousy and protectiveness over your wifeโ€ she added.
โ€œIm.Not.Jealous!! And.Shes.Not.A.Real.Wifeโ€ he whispered in an angry low tone.
โ€œHm then why are you so upset about it?โ€ she asked sipping water from her cup.
Gojo leaned in and said, โ€œbecause I want everyone to treat her poorly, everyone to belittle her and this guys over here shouldn't interfere or try to defend her like the gentleman he isโ€“ that's why I'm pissed...my plan is to make her life a living nightmare, and it shouldn't be ruined by anyone, especially Nanamin.. Understood now?โ€
โ€œUnderstoodโ€ she simply said, looking forward for all the drama that she'll soon witness.
She was relieved that he wasn't jealous, Mei Mei desired Gojo since high school days, and him falling for you; his wife, is something Mei Mei won't allow.
......
โ€œHow long have you been teaching here? I haven't seen you aroundโ€ he asked.
โ€œUmโ€“ today is my first day actuallyโ€ you replied with a hint of awkwardness.
โ€œOh I see!! good luck then I'm sure you'll do greatโ€ he encouraged,
โ€œT-thank youโ€ you stammered ,pleasantly surprised, a warm genuine smile graced your face.
Nanami is indeed respectful and considerate quite the opposite of some other dick that you're stuck with.
โ€œExcuse me for my random question, but what Jujutsu technique do you possess?โ€ he questioned completely oblivious of your situation.
You swallowed with difficulty, rocking your legs under the table in embarrassment. But why would you hide who you really are?
โ€œIโ€“I don't have any Jujutsu energy my situation is kind of complicated so...โ€ you replied,
trying your best to hide your discomfort from his sudden question, especially knowing that your husband is sitting at the table next you and any vulnerability will cost you your dignity and pride.
โ€œOh I understand! but I'm sure you're skilled with weapon use. It doesn't matter if you have a curse energy or not what matters is the braveness you carry within youโ€ he said and smiled,
he smiled for the very first time in years taking both Gojo and Mei Mei by surprise.
โ€œNanami smiling? if I knew he had such an attractive smile he would have been one of my preysโ€ thought Mei Mei to herself.
The tables turned, and now it's Gojo's turn to sit and watch your cute interaction with his colleague. Having known Nanami for years, Gojo was already familiar with the way he treats women with ultimate politeness but in Gojo's eyes you weren't deservant of such treatment, he hates you and wanted everyone around to do the same, to turn against you until you feel excluded, until you give up on your job and the small circle you've built in two days. His goal is to make you experience once again the sense of isolation you've grown up with, and Nanami encouraging you was the first step to hinder his goals. That's why Nanami shouldn't get close to you.
...
It was the very first time you witnessed someone acknowledging your skills, someone comforting you and understanding that it's okay to not be a sorcerer. His genuine words touched your heart.
Uncertain how to respond a shy smile formed on your lips, his compliment felt like a gentle breeze that lifted up your spirit, making you forget about all the hate you have dealt with for years.
As the school bell chimed, signaling the break's conclusion, you rose to head to your next teaching assignment for the second years.
โ€œIt was nice talking to you, Nanami,โ€you said gently, keeping eye contact, which he acknowledged without breaking.
โ€œLooking forward to our next meeting...after youโ€ he said, stepping aside to let you walk ahead.
....
โ€œNanamin!!โ€
โ€œYeah Gojo what do you want?โ€ Nanami replied with a sigh, irritated, since Gojo used to annoy him a lot before.
โ€œNothing much... but maybe next time, acknowledge my presence before chatting with her so casually.โ€
โ€œHuh? she was sitting alone, and you were with Mei Mei. so what's your point? cuz i couldn't get it yet!โ€
โ€œListen, Nanamin, don't waste your time with her. She'sโ€“โ€
โ€œWhy would you say that? It's not like I'm trying to steal your wife or something!โ€ Nanami interrupted, raising an eyebrow.
โ€œI'd appreciate it if you don't talk to her againโ€
โ€œShe's a mature woman with free will. You don't get to decide who she talks to.. Excuse me nowโ€ Nanami asserted, and the walked away.
โ€“ Time Skip Night Time โ€“
โ€œAah, what a dayโ€ you sighed, yawning as you began drying off, still wrapped in your towel.
The warm bath washed away the fatigue from a long day of teaching. Smiling at the memory of Nanami's words, recollecting his warm smile. Suddenly interrupted by a voice.
โ€œI see you're happy?โ€ came a voice that caught you off guard, disrupting your thoughts.
โ€œSatoru? What are you doing here?โ€
โ€œThis is my house, or did you forget?โ€
A blush colored your cheeks as you realized being clad only in a towel that barely covered the length of your thighs, and his focused intense gaze didn't make things any easier.
โ€œWatcha smiling at? don't tell me you're having those lovey-dovey moments where you have a burst of energy, kicking your feet in the air because you developed a crush on someone? is it Nanami?โ€
โ€œWhat if it is? are you jealous? I thought you had plans to spend the night with Mei Mei. What brings you here anyway?โ€
โ€œOh, you gave yourself away... eavesdropping to my chat earlier?โ€
โ€œNah, wasn't really interested in what you said. You were just loud for some reasonโ€ you retorted.
โ€œGetting more bratty by each day?โ€ he remarked, taking a step closer as you instinctively took a step back.
โ€œWhat do you want?โ€ you asked, panic brewing inside, wild thoughts racing through your mind.
โ€œNothing.. Why do you seem uncomfortable? Is it because I'm getting this close to you? Is it because my fingers are now tracing your skin?โ€ he teased, his fingers leaving a trail of delicate goosebumps on your exposed arm.
โ€œSatoru!โ€ you warned, air hitched in your throat..
โ€œIs it because no one will be able to hear you scream, in this house of thick walls?โ€
โ€œSatoru get away and- stop it with your g-gamesโ€ you stuttered as he tarped you between his chest and the wall. He could hear your heart pounding out of your chest.
โ€œWhat if I dont? what would you do? stop me?โ€ he challenged.
You tried to walk past him, but he was faster, he pushed you on the king sized bed, and crawled on top of you, making you disappear under his giant figure.
โ€œWhat? I thought you wanted this from the beginning, I thought you wanted me inside of you huh? You wanted to make this marriage real dont you? so why are you fighting it back now?โ€ he said calmly,
He held your hands above your head to stop you from pushing him and hitting his chest.
โ€œSATORU GET OFF OF ME..I DON'T WANT THAT AND YOU KNOW ITโ€
tears gathered in your eyes, you didn't want your first time to be like this, hell no, it scared the shit out of you, and wanted nothing more than breaking free from his grasp.
โ€œAre you crying now babygirl? I thought you were braver than this..โ€
โ€œIM NOT CRYING...GET OFF OF ME NOWโ€ you yelled and used your legs to push him away.
Suddenly, he paused and then started laughing hysterically,
โ€œY-you should have *laugh* seen the scared look on your face...that was hilariousโ€ he continued on laughing,
and you were sat on the bed, fixing your towel looking at him in utter confusion. โ€œw-what the hell?โ€ you whispered.
He paused inhaling, โ€œSee how weak you are, unable to protect yourself..โ€ he started, looking at you with dismissive glance.
โ€I.am.not.weak.โ€
โ€œI could have broke you if I wanted to, I'm just not interested in fucking a nobody like you..โ€ he spitted each word was thrown at you like daggers.
You swallowed your pain, choking on the tears that you've never allowed to stream.
โ€œYou won't.. and I'm not interested in even looking at some arrogant, power digger, empty shell of man like youโ€ you fought back
โ€œEmpty shell of a manโ€ echoed in his ears, the thing that he's always avoided, his emptiness, the void that he thought he covered with his strength, you cracked it. How did you even know?
โ€œWhy are you silent now Satoru? did I strike a sensitive nerve?โ€
โ€œI am the strongest, meaningless words coming from a meaningless person won't affect meโ€ he replied, eyes piercing through you..
โ€œEnough with the strongest!! is it your only resort to defend yourself? to prove yourself? You're not special Gojo Satoru, people out there are also worth it, are also strong and talented , you're not better than them not better than anyone, yoโ€“โ€
โ€œIn all the heavens and the earth, I Alone Am the honoured one..do you understand?โ€ he spoke slowly yet with harsh tone..
a tone that sent shivers down your spine. You looked at him silently, his face inches away from yours, looking into each others eyes, his blue eyes; an ocean, a canva of hidden struggles.
If looks could kill, you'd be already sent to heaven.
โ€œDo.You.Understand?โ€ he repeated.
But all what you could do is stare,
โ€œSay.Itโ€ he yelled
โ€œnoโ€ you started โ€œ...in all heavens and the earth, I alone the one you can't control, Satoruโ€ you added twisting his words, and used them against him.
.....
Satoru let out a short, mirthless laugh, the flicker of offense evident in his blue eyes poking the inside of his cheek with his tongueโ€“ but it's Gojo Satoru, he would never give you the satisfaction of actually breaking his ego, so what else he could do except flipping the topics.
โ€œFrom now on I'll be sleeping here. Couch or the other room, your call, but this is my bedโ€ he declared, breaking the silence after thinking he would really break you, from how intense the atmosphere was.
โ€œIf I were you, I'd find another spot. But if you stick here, you better sleep with one eye openโ€ he added warning, taking off his shirt to reveal his toned back.
You swiftly gathered your belongings, exiting the room as he began unbuckling his belt.
.....
Sitting in the next room, knees to your chest, tears flowed silently. making sure the door was locked, you couldn't deny he had given you a scare. It was his plan all along, to frighten you, to make you feel vulnerable, proving he could easily assert dominance.
โ€œI hate this. I hate you, Satoru.โ€

Beauty & the Beast AU, where Tommy really is a beast, and things get a little steamy between them. But Tommy is not proud of what he currently is.
idea from here
---
It's the touch of Evan's hands over his muzzle that undoes Tommy. Fearless, gentle. Evan's fingers drop to Tommy's mouth and slide in to feel sharp, deadly teeth.
Tommy's mouth drops opens slightly, terrified yet aroused, as Evan touches every single fang. They both know that Tommy can snap his jaw shut and take Evan's fingers with ease. But Evan doesn't even tremble. His long fingers touch the tip of Tommy's tongue, and almost involuntarily Tommy opens his mouth wider, lets his tongue loll out. Just like the beast he is.
Except Evan only strokes the length of it, his own breathing growing heavier. The blended scents of their arousal becomes more intense, mingling with the woody ashy smell of the fire. Tommy knows he is drooling, and the way Evan is caressing his tongue is not helping, and he doesn't even dare to imagine what a horribly bestial image he is presenting. A real monster.
Evan soon takes his hand away, and Tommy can close his mouth now, try to swallow, try to regain some dignity. His heart is pounding so hard in his chest, he wonders why Evan isn't commenting on it. This is the first time since he was cursed that anyone has gotten this close.
Then he feels Evan's hand stroking down his furred torso, reaching down to the heated length between Tommy's legs.
Tommy whimpers. "Evan, stop."
Evan stops. He buries his fingers into the soft, dense fur of Tommy's belly and starts giving Tommy the scratches he adores, the belly scratches that calm him down. "Sorry. Was I going too fast for you?"
"You shouldn't..." Tommy gulps, and finally he opens his eyes, the first time since Evan kissed him that night. Evan is aglow, his clothes discarded in a pile by their feet, the firelight burnishing him in copper and gold. Tommy wants to weep at the beautiful man in his arms. He does not deserve him. "Evan, you shouldn't have to touch me when... when I'm just... just this. You don't have to... to desecrate yourself."
Evan exhales slowly and brushes back the thick mane on Tommy's head and over his shoulders. Then he reaches up to grab one of the heavy, coiled horns and tugs, making sure that Tommy is looking directly at him. Evan's blue eyes are blown dark, wells of deep night.
"Lord Thomas Kinard," says Evan calmly, "this is not desecration. This is me, deciding to be yours. I don't care that you're not human. i got myself here knowing that. I care about making both of us feel good, together." He skates his free hand over Tommy's face again, his fingers digging into the thick mane. "When you told me to stop, is it because you didn't want me to touch you, or because you think I should not touch you?"
Tommy trembles and doesn't speak. Evan tightens his grip on Tommy's mane, pulls himself closer. "Tell me the truth, please. Do you like me touching you?"
"...yes."
"Do you want me to touch you more intimately? Not - not whether it is right to do so or not. But do you want it?"
Swallowing his shame, Tommy mumbles, "...yes."
Buck sighs and nuzzles as closely as he can, releasing Tommy's horn and the mane. "Then I will continue. And after that, if you feel that it's been just me mauling you, you can lick me all over. Taste every inch of my skin."
The blood in Tommy's veins rush to his thick erection, the one he has tried his best to ignore whenever it wanted his attention the past few years. But Evan only makes a sound of appreciation when he feels it between their bodies.
"I think you like that idea," Evan coos. He skims his hands down. "Alright then. Let me help you feel good, and then you can make me feel good. I know you can make me feel so, so good."
And as Evan touches him, Tommy thinks that there's a different kind of magic, and finally, finally allows himself to be loved.

I want to preface this by saying that I'm desperately trying NOT to sound like this is coming from some kind of a high horse, and that I am aware that everyone gets to make mistakes, especially when we're young - because we are human - and then grow and learn from them. I did plenty of my own when it comes to crushes and hot actors.
but.
There are certain lines you still shouldn't cross, particularly when you are of a certain age where you should know better.
One of those things is deliberately seeking out compromising pictures of an actor you claim to love, only for the sake of getting off and satisfying your morbid curiosity. And then posting about it and getting other people to do the same.
I get that things are complicated and messy when you have a crush that borders on obsession, and that curiosity is a bitch, but these pictures/video - no matter how publicly available - were shared without the consent of a (at the time) very vulnerable and emotionally compromised person, and to me they're no different than revenge p**n. Please think about that.
So if some of you claim to be in love with this man as much as you profess it (and I include myself here most of the time), I at least hope that you would give him the same courtesy and compassion you would to any other human in your life that could have such terrible thing happen to them, and try to preserve their dignity and privacy from taking any further damage.
I get it. I am not the moral police. I know that you can do whatever you want in your life and on your blog.
However, what I also know is that by doing so on your blog, you are repeating this huge violation of his privacy on a bigger scale, and I'm begging you not to be that person. Please do not enable other people, or normalize that kind of a behavior. Nobody deserves to get their shit plastered on the internet over and over, not even hot celebrities.
One more thing: sexualize characters to your heart's conent! Write the filthiest fantasies, publish them on your blog or send it to your friends. Put them in the weirdest AUs and most terrifying situations. Publish an essay about why xy would be the best at [insert sexual act of any kind]. DO IT ALL. I might even read it and leave you kudos for it. But leave actors, real human beings out of it.! At least on your dash. (idc what you do or don't do in the DMs. It's your life and your own set of moral and ethical standards.)
I'm not going to attack anyone personally, nor do I want anyone to do so. I just want us all to maybe in the future think before we post, and to have the empathy and be kind to each other. And if we cannot, the block button is there for a reason.

When you become untouchable, you're unable to touch Is there a real me? Pop the champagne It hurts me just to think and I don't do pain
- The Living Tombstone (My Ordinary Life)
- ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ•Š You display what you want to display but you keep a part of you quite untouchable because of what you experienced you don't wanna experience pain and despair ever again, you put up this image that is intense and admirable because you put a lot of effort and dedications to things... you find it hard not to get obsessed with what you love.. you learnt this the hard didn't you? When you put so much love into things you loose yourself and your dignity in the process and you loose yourself in the intense reactions other people have made of you thus making you question your worth. Don't you know how much power you have? The jealousy you've experienced.. people projecting on you because of your burning desire to do things you lost who you were in expectations that you made of yourself and that others have made of you.. say no to that and own your power.

Perfection is so quick to bore You are my beautiful, by far Our flaws are who we really are
- I hear a symphony (Cody Fry)
- ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ•ŠYou've always been somewhat different in the ways you think and act since a young age.. you were analytical and saw through things no one else could because of your innovative mind. At such young age you've had to dim your ways of thinking because of other's expectations and the duty you've had to serve since young may have taken a toll on who you are today and you constantly feel what would happen if you were to just break free from society and the cruel world. You have a beautiful heart that humankind doesn't deserve. You've always been that person to give a hand out when needed but were those favors retreated? Tell me.. how many times you've tried to fit in? You don't have to please anyone and loving yourself is a mission for you. How many times people have stolen what you've done and taken credit for it? Embrace yourself and say fuck you to anyone else and only do things for you. Embrace your "weird" side"

I've been catching planes for the fun of it Then I'll be watching fame turn to punishment The weather's only sunny when I'm under it And I haven't really changed, yeah I'm just confident I'm just fucking lucky I was born with it
Into it - (Chase Atlantic)
๐Ÿค๐Ÿ•ŠYou have learned that running from responsibilities isn't any fun and you have to fear the dark side at times and the dark side can come from when you least expect it. You are most secretive than given credit for, you put up this pretty image with amazing charisma and you display wisdom and knowledge.. it's hard not to look up to you.. but eventually you create this standard that you always have to shine bright and that negative emotions aren't welcomed.. you repress emotions.. you have learned that you shouldn't always follow what the crowd wants. Sometimes you wish you could just go unnoticed but it's hard not to pay attention to you.. you've always felt like escaping huh? Wishing you were someone else.. while everyone wants to be you.. most people misunderstand your life and think it's all luxury because of that pretty image you put up.. it couldn't be farther from the truth.. you were gifted with wisdom and creative talents from youth.. use them

Line without a hook- (By Ricky Montgomery)
๐Ÿค๐Ÿ•Š You have been gifted with the ability to love so much that your own persona becomes a blur and you loose yourselves in the ones you love you'd dare sacrifice yourself for them.. but have your ways of love always been given back? Perhaps.. you've found yourself staying a bit longer than you should in situations where you were giving too much? Does that hit a bell? Oh.. this is why you've built up walls because you're afraid you'd be used for your love again.. yes? You've always provided a home for people even if you yourself didn't have a stable home emotionally and mentally.. you always dared to care and love and nourish.. you were always watering dead plants.. you have had to learn so early on that not everyone has such big heart like you.. have you went so far for people who didn't really like you the way you thought? Use your ways of loving and your intuitive abilities for what's best and don't water dead plants.

Your heart is beautiful your entire soul is.. who was the one who made you hide it all away? You still remember your first heartbreak don't you? Are you concerned for how others perceive you too much? Have you yet learned that love only comes within you the most? People tend to confide in you the most but who do you confide in? You were gifted with the abilities of art and aesthetics you've always tried to see everything in a better light until the darkness over took once and all you think is anxious thoughts.

- ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ•Š You just need a break..you need a break from reality.. no even that sounds too little.. you need to take it slow.. all those sleepless you've spent working so hard repressing tears.. did it all start from early school years and that perfectionism to get those grades? Or maybe it's your parent's expectations.. Sure you're "grounded' but who knows when you're not? who hide it so well just for the sake of not burdening anyone.. you suffer alone aiming for the price.. the high achiever.

Do the wires in your mind get sewn together..
Rubbed and severed by the heat
Not allowed - TV girl
- ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ•Š Sure you can be seen as the friend who is funny and always up to chat.. but who really knows what's going on in your mind? All those thoughts racing.. do you know how fascinating your mind is and how it works? But let's talk about the uglier side.. you are more anxious than you let on and you can't help but analyze every little thing, you may at times questioned your sanity because of what you've noticed so early on that others haven't.. At such young age, you've been on this mission to feed on knowledge but what about your emotional nourishment? You can't just feed your emotional needs with your mind.. take time to yourself...

All things come to pass With time But I want everything now To be all mine
Young - (By Vacations)
- ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ•Š With that burning desire you've had throughout your life to accomplish so many things.. you are a true child at heart with so many dreams.. ignoring the people who have told you your dreams are unrealistic and that you'll never make it.. but you'll make it there one day.. faith is what keeps you even if it's inconsistent faith has always been your friend. The burning loyalty you give to those who dare stand by your side and how much you're willing to give. You're not the easiest but that's for a reason you want everything and you'll give everything, all because of the intense love inside you.
- ๐Ÿค Water placements & 12th house placements & 8th house placements & 4th house placements & Neptune dominance
But the rain never came So I made with the sun The shade Always comes at the worst time
Daddy Issues - (By The Neighborhood)
- ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ•Š The ability to feel the environment around has it side effects doesn't it? You easily get overwhelmed and because of your kind nature you take more than what you should've taken, you struggle making time for you at times. You escape the rain and despair by sleeping or ignoring the obvious. You become foggy to those around you because you are scared of letting people in on what you really go through. Your intuition has never failed you especially with people.. so why do you still doubt it? Is it because of what you think it could be? But it isn't right? Reality can be despair, you run and run until you run out of time and you have no choice but to face the dark truths.

Speak Now - Sam Winchester Imagine (Supernatural)
Tumblr media
Title: Speak Now
Pairing: Sam Winchester X Reader
Word Count: 1,695 words
Warning(s): drugging, threats of violence
Summary: (Season 7, Episode 8) During a trip that was meant to be a vacation, (Y/n) and Dean are met with some very surprising new from Sam and an old face.
Author's Note: This was deadass going to be a chapter in a Sam Winchester fanfiction I was planning. I ended up scrapping it after a while, but I could not shake this idea. It's based on a silly episode, but it would've been a pivotal moment in the fanfiction.
God, this episode, dude.
Hey! I did a rewrite of the ending of Supernatural. It took a really long time to complete, so it would mean a lot to me if you check it out. Hereโ€™s a link! (itโ€™s on my personal account)
-------------------------------
After everything that had happened, Sam, Dean, and I deserved a small break. Dean thought that the annual Vegas would be a perfect choice.
He went off drinking in a strip club. Sam decided he was going to go on a hike. I found a spot outside of the city to find some non-lore-related books and such.
Honestly, I think the book thing irritated Dean more than the hike.
"You are going to have a whole duffel bag devoted to these books and I am going to be the one lugging them around!"
I just told him that he wouldn't, but he would be a true gentleman if he did.
I was in the middle of my bookstore hunt when my phone buzzed.
"Hello," I said quietly.
"We've got an emergency," Dean said quickly. "I got a text from Sam. It was just an address and instruction to wear the FED outfits. I'm coming to pick you up."
"Okay," I muttered. "I don't have my... outfit with me."
I wasn't going to yell like that I was dressing like a federal agent in the middle of a store.
"Yeah, I know, I've got it," he replied. "You can throw it on in the back of the car."
"Dean-"
"I'm not gonna peek at anything," he promised. "We just don't have time."
After he picked me up and I awkwardly tried to hold onto some dignity as I changed in the backseat of the car, we pulled up to a chapel. One of those drive-thru chapels.
"So... emergency or wedding," I asked. "I got twenty on wedding."
"No, this... this isn't Sam's style."
"So... twenty on emergency?"
"You're on," he replied, shaking my hand.
We walked inside, slowly moving down the hall. When one of the lights flickered, we both reached for our guns.
We got to a set of white doors. Dean looked at me as he slowly reached for the door handle. I nodded.
Before he could push them open, they were pulled from the other side. We both aimed our guns at whatever was there.
"Dean, (Y/n)," Sam said, furrowing his eyebrows for a moment. He pushed our guns down. "You guys won't need that."
"I thought you were off becoming one with the land and crap," Dean muttered as Sam led us down the aisle.
He moved us to stand together by a piano. We both ended up with flowers pinned to our jackets.
"Sam, what's going on," I asked.
"Apparently, pink is for loyalty."
"That was a useless answer," I replied.
"Alright, pretext, so what are we, wedding crashers," Dean pushed. "We looking for some kind of siren or what?"
"No, nothing like that," Sam shook his head and stepped back. "Alright, a little sudden, but life is short, so I'll keep this shorter. I'm in love. And I'm getting married."
My heart felt like it went into hell.
"Say something," he pushed us both.
"What," Dean asked.
"Who," I added.
Before Sam could answer, music started playing and a woman in a white dress started walking down the aisle.
And then Sam lifted the veil. Becky.
I scoffed.
Dean and I just watched the disaster unfold.
The happy couple sat down. I leaned on one of the pillars. Dean was pacing.
I felt sick to my stomach. Of all people. He picked his stalker. I would've rather he married Ruby. At least the challenge of killing her would've made me hesitate a little more.
Dean looked at me for a minute. I shook my head, looking down.
"Shouldn't she ask for my permission or something," Dean asked.
"You want her to ask for my hand," Sam said.
"She stalked you," I added. I looked at Becky, who had yet to make eye contact with me. "Sorry. I'm sure you're a sweet girl, but you stalked him."
"How did this happen," Dean asked.
"Short version... we met, we ate and talked and fell in love... and here we are."
"Yeah," Dean replied. "Guess I'm all caught up."
"Becky, what happened with Chuck," I crossed my arms over my chest.
Her eyes stayed focused on Sam, "Some things just don't work out."
I nodded. Sure. At the time- before we knew the truth about Chuck- I was ninety percent sure that she had murdered him somehow.
"You know what," Dean said. "Ignoring everything... have you forgotten the average lifespan of your hook-ups?"
"Yeah, but-"
"But if anyone knows that, it's me," Becky cut Sam off. "I mean, I read every book."
"Becky, this life isn't like reading a book," I said. "There's a lot more that goes into it than book smarts."
"I'm gonna be sick," Dean added after a moment.
"Same," I muttered.
"Dean, look, it's simple," Sam said. "If something good's happening, I got to jump on it. Now, today, period."
"I'm going out to the car," I held my hands up and started walking out.
"(Y/n)," I only stopped because Sam spoke up. "This is a big deal. I thought you'd be more supportive."
I stammered for a moment, not having a response to that. I gave up, shrugging and continuing my walk outside.
I sat in the passenger seat of the car for a minute in silence before hitting the dashboard with my hand.
"Fuck!"
I fell silent again as I leaned back in my seat, staring up at the ceiling of the impala.
Dean walked out a few minutes later.
"Sorry," I muttered. "I... I was convinced I was gonna hit one of them if I stayed."
"You're fine," he replied. "Let's get to the motel and shoot Bobby a call."
"He's on a vamp hunt in Oregon."
"Something tells me this is more important."
As Dean started driving, there was something I just couldn't shake.
"She knew," I finally got out. "Becky knows how I feel about Sam."
"Why would you-"
"Chuck wrote it," I cut him off. "He wrote the moment I fell for Sam. He wrote damn near three pages talking about everything that I loved about him. It was all there. Becky read it. And she still had no problem doing... whatever the hell she did to him."
"Hey," Dean said. "It's gonna be alright. We'll get this figured out, okay?"
I nodded and looked out the window.
--time skip--
We tracked the pair down outside Delaware and the least shocking thing happened.
It was a deal.
Becky had made a deal with a demon and gotten a potion to force Sam into a relationship with her.
Dean and I teamed up with Garth- who was something else but seemed nice enough. We managed to get Becky to help us get to the crossroad demon.
After Crowley's unexpected assistance, the only thing left to do was end the weird-ass marriage.
I was outside, leaning against the impala, waiting for the brothers to head out so we could leave. I think Dean was checking on Garth and calling Bobby while Sam was signing divorce papers.
I was just kind of kicking rocks, wasting time.
"Hey," Sam said awkwardly, leaning on the trunk next to me.
"Hey," I grinned. "How'd the divorce go?"
"First of all, it was an annulment," he replied. I stifled a laugh. "Second of all, it went fine."
I nodded.
We stood there silently for a while. We were just waiting for Dean.
I felt a kind of sick feeling in my stomach. I looked over at Sam for a moment before looking back down at the parking lot. The feeling wouldn't go away.
I had been hunting with them for years now. I never truly considered the chance that Sam would end up settling down with someone that wasn't in the hunting life.
After seeing Sam actually marry someone, I realized that I didn't have any time to waste. When it was Ruby, I could logic my way through it. She was a demon; chances of that lasting were... low. But... it was possible that there was going to be someone that could catch his eye.
"Sam," I said quietly, looking at him again.
He looked over at me, eyebrows raised a little as he waited for me to say something.
I moved quickly so I couldn't talk myself out of it. I leaned over and pressed my lips to his. My eyes screwed shut, terrified of the rejection.
When I noticed that Sam hadn't reacted, I leaned back. I only got a few inches away before he turned his body, cupped the sides of my face, and pulled me back into another kiss.
My hands grabbed onto his shirt as I grinned into the kiss.
I leaned back a few moments later. I grinned at him. He smiled back.
"Sorry," I mumbled.
"Don't be," he shook his head. "I've been waiting for years for that to happen."
"So have I."
His hands moved to my sides, pulling me closer to him.
"So... you were jealous of Becky?"
"She did use a love potion on you," I said. "It was pretty convincing."
He looked down, not replying.
"Yeah, don't be a dick about it," I chuckled.
He leaned over and kissed me again. I wrapped my arms around his neck, chuckling against his lips as he turned us and leaned against the impala again.
"Hey," we both pulled away when we heard Dean shout. "Don't mess up Baby with your make-out session!"
We both just kind of watched him get in the car.
"Finally," he looked at us one last time before getting in the driver's seat.
Sam and I looked at each other, both chuckling before getting in the car. I jumped in the backseat and Sam jumped into the passenger seat.
"What, I'm not gonna become a chauffeur," Dean asked.
"Don't be an ass about this," Sam muttered.
"I've been waiting like seven years for this," he replied. "I'm never going to stop being an ass about it."
I rolled my eyes and leaned forward in the seat, kissing Sam's cheek, "Then, we'll be just as obnoxious."
Sam grinned at me, "I like the sound of that."
I leaned back and buckled my seatbelt.
Yeah, so did I.

hey! i absolutely love and adore everything you draw and write! are you still doing prompts? cause I have these two prompts for our illogical husbands
~ "You okay? You look like you could use a hug.โ€
~ "You don't deserve someone like me. You deserve better."
lots of love <3
Aw, thank you so much for loving my stuff! And yes, I'm still doing prompts!
Oooh, those are good ones, I can use both of them for this.
On with the fic!
--
A job like Hardy's was stressful, to say the least, but for someone like him, it was practically a death sentence.
Yes, his heart was doing better, but just because there was a pacemaker now didn't mean that he was completely fine and would never suffer from problems again. No, he was still at risk, and his job didn't make that easy for him.
But Hardy was as stubborn as ever, and this new case needed to be finished, it needed to be solved! But that didn't mean that he shouldn't be taking care of himself, shouldn't be worried about his own health as he tried to solve this murder.
It wasn't even just his physical health, it was his mental that was causing him problems as well.
Sleep was escaping him as he kept having nightmares about failure, for those victims, that felt too close to what he suffered during the Sandbrook and Latimer cases.
Why did they have to be found near water, why? Why is it always water!?
Hardy closed his eyes tight, his breathing haggard and painful, as he woke up from another nightmare. His head was pounding, his chest had a burn that he wished wasn't familiar, if not a bit dulled.
He grabbed a pill from the side table, it's been ages, but muscle memory was hard to shake off. The pill was swallowed dry and he returned to his previous position, curled up and trying to ignore the world around him.
Thankfully his husband was still at work, late shifts and all that.
"You okay?"
Damnit, it must have been a slow enough night for him to come home early.
Hardy cracked open an eye, looking towards the doorway, seeing Bill standing there, illuminated by the hallway light. "You look like you could use a hug." Bill said in a tone that was meant to be teasing, but the humor didn't reach his eyes.
Fuck, he was worried, he must have heard Hardy.
"'m fine." The detective replied, shutting his eyes, trying to ignore the man.
He heard socked feet on the floor, then felt the bed dip. A familiar hand was on his hip, giving him a small squeeze. "Alec, I know you had a nightmare."
"No, just... chest pains." Hardy replied. "Happens still sometimes, you're a doctor, you know this."
"Yes, but I also know that my husband crying out in his sleep and crying means that he had a night terror. You might think I've slept through them, but I haven't, I just pretended to so you could keep your dignity and not have me worried."
Fuck.
Hardy shifted and moved to sit up, looking at Bill. "Fine, alright, I've been... it's happened before, a number of times, with some of these cases. I don't like... I don't do well with children's deaths, Bill."
"Most people don't."
"You know what I mean. I saw them by the water, and it just... it was like Sandbrook, or my first case here. Those cases were my hardest, they nearly ruined my life, nearly killed me."
Bill's expression softened as he moved closer. "You're worried this one will do the same to you, aren't you? Have you... have you spoken to Ellie about this? She's more familiar with your experiences with those cases than I am."
Hardy shook his head. "I can't tell her, she worries too much, and she's got her own problems right now, I don't want to add more stress for her on top of all this and her own home life issues."
"Alec, you need to talk to someone."
"I'm talking to you." Hardy huffed. "Look, doing that now, when I really don't want to."
Bill didn't take the bait to argue back, to banter, and Hardy sighed, pulling his knees up to his chest, hiding his face into them. "You don't deserve someone like me. You deserve better."
"What in the world makes you believe that?" Bill asked, sounding hurt. "Are you worried that you're failing in solving this case? Are you worried that it'll be the death of you?"
"Got it in one." Hardy replied, voice muffled by the blanket.
"Oh, Alec," Bill was closer now, sitting right next to him, "you solved those previous cases, even if they nearly ended you. You're the most stubborn man I've ever met, and that's saying something, I'm right here."
Hardy couldn't help the small, amused scoff that came from him, and Bill continued. "I know you're worried, even scared, but look, if it helps, you can talk to me when things start to overwhelm you. Alright? I don't deserve better, Alec, I have you, and I'm happy with that. And besides, if anyone deserves better, it's you."
Hardy turned his head, looking at Bill. "Shut up, I love you, I don't deserve or want anyone else."
"See? We're on mutual ground there. Come on, you have an early shift tomorrow, right? You need to sleep. If you want, I can lay with you until you're asleep once more, yes?"
Hardy wanted to say no, he wasn't a child, he would be fine. But he found himself nodded, then moved to lay down once more. Bill did as well, moving to press himself against Hardy, placing an arm around him.
They didn't say anything, they didn't need to, as Hardy closed his eyes and tried to go back to sleep, focusing on the warm, familiar body pressed against his back.

You Canโ€™t Just Leave Me
Tumblr media
Summary: The Han family is a force to be reckoned with.ย 
Authorโ€™s Note: Writing this chapter made me smile, I hope reading it as the same affect on you all. Thank you to everyone who supports this story and leaves comments (or my silent readers). I appreciate you all and I am so thankful that you like this brainchild, Iโ€™ve just been winging it- never expecting to be on chapter 7 on something I initially planned on being a one shot. You all made it come this far, enjoy chapter 7!! Beautiful header by @ewolfwitchwisegirlย text message created by Junjin fairy @prodmina
The apartment is eerily quiet following Su-ah's departure, he hadn't intentionally tried to eavesdrop but it was hard not to overhear their sniffles through the door. Then hours later the usually bubbly girl had exited the room with red rimmed eyes, he'd never seen her cry before in his many years of knowing her. He was awkward in the face of it, not used to comforting anyone besides Ju-Kyeong.ย 
Their conversation was clipped and it was clear that Sujin hadn't opened up about what happened. The Su-ah he knew would be making plans to sabotage her father, if she knew the full story. ย She'd left with the final words, "Take care of her." He nodded without hesitation that was his intentions, he just needed to get her onboard with his plan to do that.
Taking a deep soothing breath he walks over to knock on the door.
"Sujin-ah, can we talk?" He asks, pressing his head against the door. Ready to plead if need be, she hadn't been answering him since being here. He never saw her come outside, but the food he brought would just disappear hours after he placed it. He waits patiently before reaching out his knuckles to knock again, but when the door suddenly opens he takes a quick step back surprised to see Sujin's face. It's clear she's been crying. He looks away, it's a bit unsettling to see her like this. Too raw.
"Let's talk in the living room." He suggests quietly, stepping back and walking towards the couch. Nerves easing minutely as he hears her soft footsteps behind him. He slides into one corner of the couch and watches as she sits on the opposite end. An awkward silence bellows around them as he stares at his hands and she stares at the ceiling. They have both never been the most talkative on a good day, but now itโ€™s painful.ย 
He clears his throat stilling when he feels her eyes on him, waiting. He had this speech planned in his head for days but now that the moment is actually here, he's terrified. Too nervous to say the words he wants to, does he even have the right to apologize to her now? Does she even want his late apology or will she brush him off? He wouldn't blame her one bit, it had taken him too long and he still hasn't even forgiven himself, how could he expect her to forgive him?ย 
"Thank you."
He almost misses the quiet utterance because he's so lost in his own self deprecation. They are staring at each other now eyes locked, his own wide in bewilderment.
"What?" He responds caught off guard, he didn't expect Sujin to speak at all-much less for those to be her first words.
"You heard me. Thank you for letting me stay here and for not pressuring me to talk about it." ย Sujin awkwardly squirms in her seat, glancing away from him before darting back and she gives him the courage to finally saw what he wanted- no needed to.
"I'm sorry." It's his turn to watch the shock form on her face but he presses on before she can question him. "I'm sorry I wasn't there, I knew what was happening but I didn't know how to help. I understand now that just being there would have been enough, you just needed a friend. I'm sorry I wasn't one."
A slight weight lifts off his shoulder and his heart, he's not free but he's one step closer. One step at a time.
"You didn't do anything wrong. We were just kids, what could you have done? It's okay, I never expected you to save me. How could you when you were dealing with your own pain?"
She's giving him an out, and logically she's right the pain of losing his mother crippled him for years. It was still weighing heavy on him to this day but he doesn't want an out, he wants to be accountable. He would rather her rage than her understanding.
"I know you didn't need a savior, but you needed a friend. Am I wrong? Were you okay dealing with everything on your own?" It's a low blow he's aware and the way her eyes narrow further confirm that his question isn't appreciated.
"Am I wrong?" He repeats and watches as the ice around her eyes melt away glacially, too many emotions flashing in her dark orbs- anger, sadness, disappointment, broken acceptance each emotion cutting at his heart.
Leaning forward he grabs at the folder on the table, he's already come this far might as well go all the way now.
"Here." He hands it to her, she raises an eyebrow taking the thick object. "Open it," he nods at the folder watching quietly as she breaks the seal and pulls out the documents, eyes scanning the papers before realization settles.
"Emancipation?" She whispers, now staring at him unblinking he can feel the heft of her undivided attention.
"Yes, we've been doing research and I think the best bet is for you to get emancipated." He winces at himself as she glares at the use of "we", he should have left that out with how distant they've been; she didn't even know that Seojun was the one providing the meals she seemed to love. She might stop eating them if she knew, she was so stubborn sometimes.ย 
She leaf's through the pages, carefully looking over the document and he sits silently awaiting her reaction.
"He would never allow this. You know that." It's said with certainty as if she's accepted her fate long ago, probably thought of this very option herself and then talked herself out of it.
"I'm going to ask her father to help, he's been supporting your father all these years. If he knew the truth..." He trails off letting her finish the rest and she barks out a humorless laugh, it sounds more like a sob.
"You want to tell your father? They have known each other for years, why would he believe me?"
"He's my dad. He'll believe me. We have to at least try." He pleads now desperate for her agreement. It wasnโ€™t the right thing to say, he knows that instantly.ย 
Instantly she stands up, slamming the documents on the table the ice restoring around her eyes. "I was fine all those years you were wrong. ย I'm not doing this, I don't need your dad's help." She spits the word "dad" like it's poison on her tongue, storming off to the room and slamming the door shut.
He sighs, defeated leaning back onto the couch. He sends a text to his father and Seojun. He failed.ย 
๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„๐Ÿ’„
Guilt eats at her following her outburst, she wasn't mad at Suho despite her harsh words. She can blame her anger on many things but she's self-aware enough to know that it's a defense mechanism; she was jealous. It was ugly and grotesque, but she cannot stop the way her blood boils when she sees others with parents that care.ย 
He's my father, he'll believe me.
That would never be her reality, Suho and his father had been able to reconcile and restart their broken relationship. That would never be her truth, her relationship with her father would never resemble something healthy and despite her efforts to repress her true feelings, it hurts. The little girl who desperately wanted to make her dad happy and proud still hadn't died.
She feels stupid, the biggest fool on the planet. How can she still be looking for love from someone who has never shown her anything but hatred? Sheโ€™s the one with a problem here, she knows that.ย 
She shouldn't have lashed out especially after his apology, that must have taken true guts and she had thrown it all back in his face. She tries to make amends but every time they cross paths she freezes up and escapes to her borrowed room instead. It continues on for days with him still bringing food to her door and the combination of their kindness is too much for her. She doesnโ€™t deserve it from either of them.ย 
Tugging on her jacket she leaves the apartment hastily with only a small note on her door. She needs some space to think without feeling suffocated.
Gone for a walk.
It's just her luck that it's raining outside, only a drizzle but it coats the world in a thick fog and it's hard to see. The biggest benefit is that nobody can see her, she just needs time alone to think.ย 
The idea of emancipation wasn't new to her, she had considered this option before but in the end she discarded it. Her father wasn't someone she would simply leave, he would drag her back kicking and screaming. He had instilled long ago that she was his, it was pointless to have dreams or aspirations, she just needed to follow his orders. That was her purpose. Being an obedient dog.ย 
Suho's plan also called for revealing her pitiful life, what if she went through this ordeal only to lose and not be given emancipation in the end? No. She couldn't make herself that vulnerable at least now she had her dignity, only two people knew about her secret. It might not be much to others, but her dignity was everything to her; it was all she had left.
Sighing loudly at the skies she mentally curses the weather, maybe it's poetic but all of her worst times have been bookmarked by the rain. It must be a metaphor for her life, damp and cold with no warmth in sight.
Stopping to sit on a bench she stares up at the gray skies before closing her eyes, accepting her fate. "Fine, rain on me. I probably deserve this." Cool raindrops roll down her cheeks imitating tears and she can feel the moisture seeping into her clothes and siphoning her heat.
"Unnie?" She jumps at the voice, sounding too close and she shifts away when she opens her eyes and is greeted by the large bespectacled eyes of Gowoon. The younger girl smiles sweetly, covering her with a pale blue umbrella with ice cream cones decorating it. Itโ€™s too innocent and too young the antithesis of everything in her life.ย 
"Unnie! What are you doing in the rain? You're getting wet!" Gowoon grabs her arm tugging her to her feet using her umbrella to shelter them both. She's shocked when she doesn't bristle at the unexpected and too familiar manhandling. She almost rolls her eyes, what was it with the Han family and finding her during rainstorms?ย 
"Come on, my house isn't far. I'll make you some soup so you don't catch a cold." The other girl doesn't wait for her reply before she starts pulling her down the sidewalk. She sputters but feels her feet following obediently.
"Oppa is working late, so he won't be there to bother us."
Her heart defiantly jumps at the mention of him, she hasn't seen him in a week. She has dozens of unsent messages to him, cowardice has rendered her fingers useless though.ย 
"That's good." She lies, "So it'll just be us two?" She's not quite ready to meet any other members of the Han family.
The other girl nods absently, easily easing them into a riveting conversation about a boy at school who won't leave her alone. She offers to beat him up if he keeps on bothering her to which Gowoon laughs gleefully before squealing, "You sound just like Seojun oppa!" She glares at the comparison watching entranced at the young girl's uncontrollable giggles. When was the last time she'd laughed so freely? She had no recollection.
Gowoon wasn't lying and within minutes she's staring at the apartment she's only seen once before. That feels like a lifetime ago.
She immediately regrets her inability to say no to persuasive girl later when they are greeted at the door.
"Gowoon, sweetie is that you?" A maternal voice calls out and she instantly recognizes it, stiffening in the doorway. Stepping back she starts thinking of excuses, but her tongue is too heavy in her mouth and she's too slow as the woman comes around the corner halting her escape.ย 
She blinks unhurried as the older woman gapes at her clearly not expecting to see anyone besides her daughter.
Gowoon breaks the silence, her voice nonchalant, "Hi mom! This is my unnie Sujin, she's the one who saved me the other day! Is it okay that I brought her here for dinner, I found her in the rain!" Gowoon makes it sound like she picked up a stray puppy outside, but she knows the other girl means no harm.ย 
Her skin prickles at the question, anxiety filling her stomach without her permission. She's waiting for rejection. For Gowoonโ€™s mother to say that it is not okay and she would rather eat with her daughter without a stranger intruding.ย 
"Of course! I didn't realize it was the same Sujin." Gowoon looks confused by her mother's statement and she feels embarrassment swarming in her belly. Oh no. She has to stop her before she reveals too much, Gowoon knows nothing and she wants to keep it that way.ย 
"I didn't realize you knew Sujin too, isn't this Seojun's cru.."
"Classmate!" She suddenly interjects staring at the woman with pleading eyes, she's not ready for Gowoon to know about her brothers โ€œfeelingsโ€. She's trying her best to forgot them too.
They both stare at her and she squirms under the scrutiny, before the older woman puts her out of her misery. "Yes, Seojun mentioned her before I didn't realize she was the same person that helped you. Thank you." She freezes as the woman embraces her hand, smiling at her warmly as she thanks her. She can only stare in response, nodding dumbly.
"Come on unnie! I'll get you some warm clothes, you'll catch a cold if you keep wearing those."
She lets herself be tugged into the younger girlโ€™s room. Just like Gowoon the room is bright and vivacious, wall covered in posters and books littering her table. It looks completely normal and it makes her ache, her own room was militarily decorated with nothing out of place and no evidence of her personality. Since she was young her father would inspect it and punish her if anything was untoward. She had stopped trying to make the room look lived in after seeing poster after poster thrown down.ย 
"Here unnie. You can borrow this." Her eyes bulge at a familiar blue shirt with a puppy on the front. "I know it's so embarrassing but oppa got it for me, it's really warm though." In the end he'd gotten her to wear the ridiculous shirt, she reluctantly goes off to change into the top and leggings. They are the same baby blue hue, making the outfit look like a set. She's thankful the boy isn't here to see her.
"Well don't you look adorable?" Seojun's mom coos at her when she finally comes out of the bathroom, she desperately wants to disappear. The woman must notice her ruby cheeks because she turns with a smile calling out to her daughter, "Gowoon! Come help with dinner!"
Now changed too, into cactus pajamas the younger girl bounds out grabbing an apron and tying it behind her back.
"What are are we making?" She curiously peeks over her mom's shoulder. The air between the mother and daughter is comfortable, the two leaning into each other naturally as they discuss what to make for dinner. She observes with a heavy heart as Gowoon easily puts her head on her mom's shoulder and the woman strokes her cheek lovingly. Something inside her throbs in response.
"Do you want to help?"
Shaking her head to clear the longing she looks at their mom, who's looking back at her with soft eyes already holding out another apron.
She can't control herself her yearning is too large, she stands without hesitation walking to the woman, sucking in a breath when the apron is placed over her shoulders and then tightened snuggly.
"We're making wonton soup. Have you ever made dumplings before sweetie?"
She looks at Gowoon waiting for her reply but then realizes that both pair of eyes are on her and oh, she's talking to her. She called her sweetie. Swallowing thickly she shakes her head before replying, "No. I've never made them before." She waits to be berated or at least chastised for her lack of culinary skills, her father always said a woman's place was in the kitchen.
Nothing happens. The woman hums before smiling again, she's always smiling it's so pretty. She wishes she had the courage to say the words aloud. She doesn't.
"You can help Gowoon chop the vegetables for the filling. Then we can mix it with the ground pork and I'll show you how to make the dumplings." If the woman is disappointed at all at having to teach her she's doing an incredible job of concealing her frustrations.
She accepts the knife when Gowoon hands it to her, both of them working on a wooden cutting board. They've gotten into somewhat of a rhythm slicing the chives and carrots finely for the filling. She'd never chopped vegetables before but their mom had casually stood behind her shocking her so much she almost dropped the knife, but the older woman had easily caught the utensil before holding her hand and manually showing her how to tuck her fingers and mince the vegetables. She froze before imitating the woman, she was good at replicating acts.
"That looks great sweetie! You're a fast learner!" The woman praised her turning back to the broth and adding more seasoning liberally. She preened under the attention smiling shyly before Gowoon shouted out loudly, "What about me mom? How do mine look?" They both looked at the younger girl's unevenly chopped chives and carrots, next to Sujin's perfectly identical veggies all in an even row. The difference between the two is stark.ย 
"They look fine dear, they'll be hidden in the dumplings anyway." Her mother tries to soothe her ego, patting her shoulder before turning back to her soup dismissively and a burst of laughter explodes from her chest at the offended look on Gowoon's face, her cheeks are red and her mouth is turned down in an exaggerated frown. The younger girl looks positively livid that her mother is not similarly singing her praises and she starts to defiantly chop more vegetables, only to have them come out even worst; even more lopsided and haggard.ย 
She tries to tamper her laugh but when the younger girl starts whining, crying about how her veggies were โ€œcousins not siblingsโ€ she loses it, clutching at the counter for balance. She feels the air bursting from her lungs as she clutches at her stomach, laughing harder when Gowoon glares at her pout on her lips. The older woman joins her rubbing her daughter's back as she cries about her dignity, and then Gowoon looks at them both laughing at her and a smile spreads on her face and soon they are all laughing in the kitchen, soup bubbling beside them as a delicious aroma permeates the room.
None of them hear the front door opening or a deep voice announcing its arrival.

He's cold, tired and wet. Once again missing the forecast for rain, he really needed to start carrying an umbrella around all the time. What was up with the weather lately anyway? Why was it raining all the damn time?ย  He absently thinks of a certain someone and hopes she's somewhere warm out of the rain. They always seemed to meet when the sky was pouring and raging.ย 
It was hard not contacting her but he wanted to listen to her requests and respect her wishes no matter how hard it was for him, it was also getting pathetic being the only one fighting for this. She hadn't outright rejected him after his confession but her silence was an answer in itself and he wanted to respect that. He wasn't too manly to admit that he was hurt, and he was reeling from being pushed away so many times already.
So he followed his mother's advice, he'd given her something that he knew she needed and expected nothing in return.
All week he'd been waking up early to cook for the girl, reading recipes off his phoneย  fluffy cat headband on his head keeping his fringe out of his eyes. The easier recipes like soup and grilled meats had been simple enough to accomplish but when he ventured into more complicated bento boxes that's when frustrations had arose. They looked so easy but they were tedious and he wasnโ€™t the most patient or detail oriented person.ย 
He struggled to recreate the detailed meals and almost gave up,ย  throwing his phone across the room.
That's how his mother had found him, fuming and tugging his hair on the kitchen table. Seconds away from bashing his head into the surface and screaming at the ceiling.ย 
"What are you doing up so early?" He jumped at her voice, looking around at the mess he'd made in the kitchen with wide guilty eyes.
"I-I can explain." He stuttered out but couldn't come up with a feasible answer once she looked at him expectantly, arms folded. The patented mom stare.ย 
She had calmly walked across the room picking up his discarded phone, peering at the screen before looking back at him.
"Is this for your friend?" She shook the phone at him knowingly and he pressed his lips tight together, nodding mutely while looking away.
"Okay let's see what you have so far." His mom walked over and assessed what he had already made, nodding with a proud smile. "You did good so far, let me show you how to make a hotdog into an octopus. I did this for you all the time when you were a kid."
He was grateful when she didn't ask him any questions and it became their morning ritual, until he no longer needed guidance and he was able to make the boxes on his own. The satisfaction he felt when Suho would return the containers, clean as a whistle not even a grain of rice remaining was incomparable. It wasn't much but at least she was eating, that was all he needed even if she didn't want to see him or know that he was the one making her meals.
He sighs at himself, he told himself not to think about her but that was proving easier said than done.
Shaking himself at the front door like a wet dog, he tugs his keys from the back pocket of his jeans slotting it on the doorknob and turning.
"I'm home!" He calls out instinctively announcing his arrival as he toes off his drenched boots, but then his eyebrow lifts as he hears peals of laughter coming from the kitchen. He chuckles without knowing the joke, instantly rejuvenated by his family's abundant joy. Slipping on his slippers after hesitating a second because he doesn't recognize the shoe at the front door. When did Gowoon get those and how the hell was his little sister affording Chanel sneakers?
Those thoughts are swarming in his mind when he stomps to the kitchen, all the air sucked from his lungs when he sees an unbelievable vision. His mother and sister are grasping at each other, lost in laughter completely unaware of his presence but the image that most shocks him is Sujin, holding her stomach as she spots something on the counter that sets her off into another bout of boisterous laughter.
He can't help it he starts to categorize her every move, the way her eyes are crinkled and a stray tear is leaking out the corner, the way her nose is scrunched up like a rabbit and the way her mouth is stretched wide, visible even behind the futile shield of her hand. All of his thoughts from earlier regarding not needing to see her dissipate, he wants to tattoo this image in his mind.
"Oh! You're here!" His mother suddenly turns to face him and that causes Sujin to freeze laughter fading off with a whine, regarding him with huge bright eyes. It's almost too much once he notices what she's wearing, he wasn't prepared to see her like this in his house. It's overwhelming in the best way.
"I'm home. I'll go change and come help." Both his mother and Gowoon nod easily no longer paying him any mind but he can feel eyes on him as he runs away, trying to regain his composure and his breath. He purposely avoids Sujin's eyes not ready to see if the walls are back up at his arrival.
When he comes back out the table is already set and they've all taken a seat, the only available chair is between his mom and Sujin, so he takes a calming breath before walking over with fake confidence. Heโ€™s used to faking it until he makes it. That could be the name of his biography.ย 
He answers his family's questions about work and school blowing on the soup before taking a bite of the slightly lopsided dumpling. What it's lacking in appearance it more than makes up for in flavor, he groans at the delicious flavor that dances on his taste buds looking up excitedly at his mom.
"These dumplings are delicious! Thank you for the meal!" He praises his mom, happily chewing at the soft delicacy in his mouth.
"Thank you Junnie, but I didn't make the dumplings. They worked on the filling together but Sujin-ah seasoned and filled the dumplings while I made the broth and your sister helped with the side dishes." His mother smiles proudly over at the two girls, Gowoon beaming with pride but Sujin, almost disappears into her soup her head so close to the steaming hot bowl.
They havenโ€™t said anything to each other and he's nervous to be the one to break this stalemate but he also really wants to talk to her, has wanted to since he stepped through the door and saw her smiling face. Has wanted to since that night he stormed out and didn't look back. So finally he does, gathering all his bravery to finally look over at her.
"The dumplings are great." And when she doesn't look up or seemingly react at all, he tells himself he's fine and he expected that. She wasn't ready to talk to him yet, it was his own fault for hoping when she'd explicitly told him to stop doing that.
So he goes back to eating, more lethargic than before eyes locked on nothing but his food and his spoon. It was embarrassing. He knows his cheeks are pink and he hates it.
"Thank you. I just followed your mom's directions. It was nothing."
He pauses, peeking up at her and almost choking when she shoots him a small smile before filling her bowl with more rice.
His heart thumps in his chest. Fuck.
He doesn't hear anything else the rest of the meal, too lost in his thoughts and it's only familiarity that has him standing up when everyone is finished, collecting the plates and bringing them to the sink.
"It's almost time for Sunbae, donโ€™t wear those high heels!!" Gowoon shouts, he cringes at the name of the new drama they've been obsessively watching, he'd only tuned in one time before flabbergasted by the exorbitant amount of times the female protagonist had fallen into the arms of various men but especially the male lead. She fell off a balcony into his arms that time, with neither of them needing to be admitted to the hospital somehow. His mother and Gowoon had both hushed him when he'd voiced that particular opinion and he had happily banished himself to his room.
"Oh no, I'm going to miss it because I'm washing the dishes." He replies deadpan as his sister rolls her eyes dramatically at him, "Whatever it's your loss. Let's go I want to see if she's going to choose the sweet bad boy or the cold cute guy!"
He scoffs at the clichรฉ characterizations scrubbing harder at the plate.
"Come on unnie!" Sujin gasps as she's tugged to the living room too, glancing over he sees his little sister place her in the middle of the couch sandwiched between her and his mother. Sujin looks overwhelmed as Gowoon animatedly tries to catch her up on the series. He shakes his head, maybe the show wasn't that bad. He could watch a few minutes with them.
He strolls casually to the living room, easing onto the ground beside his mother's legs after all the dishes are clean and drying.
"What are you doing here? I thought you despised this "cringey" show?" He leans his head back, sighing when his mother eases her fingers into his hair scratching at his scalp and he sighs content in her lap.
"I do. But it's too early to sleep so I have no choice but to watch this crap."
"Mom! He said crap!"
"Watch your language."
His mother scolds him immediately and Gowoon sticks out her tongue at him vindicated because he got in trouble and immaturely he does it back, tugging off her sock much to her chagrin, dodging her when she tries to kick him.
Sujin looks back and forth between them both before discretely looking at their mother, she seems shocked when all the woman does is chuckle and say, "Children please. Do I need to remind you that we have a guest?" He looks away bashfully not wanting to look childish in front of Sujin, he hadn't thought about that. That makes them settle down and he finally looks at the TV, groaning loudly when low and behold the heroine is falling again, tripping over a candy wrapper on the ground.
"She falls a lot. She should probably wear protective gear." Sujin says breaking their new silence and he chuckles at her observation, happy that someone agrees with him, excitedly he turns to her "Right! Last time she fell off a balcony!" He shouts in disbelief and suddenly they're all arguing about the feasibility of someone surviving that. His mother shaking her head fondly at them, choosing to say out of it which makes Gowoon pout because she's outnumbered.
"Okay who would you choose Unnie, the tsundere type or the bad boy with a heart of gold?" Suddenly he's very invested in her answer, he tries not to react staring at the ceiling and breathing evenly but inside his heart is thundering ready to pound out of his chest.
A few seconds drag on and he wonders if she's not going to answer, he doesn't even know why he cares so much but curiously is gripping at him. He knows that this doesn't mean anything necessarily and he's not getting his hopes up but--
"The sweet guy. He just looks like a bad boy but he's sweet to her, he never says anything mean to her. That would be nice." She answers, trailing off at the end and he hears Gowoon instantly disagreeing saying the other guy is way better, but he can barely hear his sister over the thumping of his heart in his ears, he can't help the wide smile that spreads on his face.ย 
He turns to hide it in his mom's lap.
It doesn't leave his face the rest of the night.

It's getting late, she knows that it's time for her to take her leave she's been imposing on them for too long but....she doesn't want to. She doesn't want to leave, they are so warm. She's never seen a family like this outside of television shows, how was it possible that this was their real life? How could they have a mother who was that loving? Everything they did was greeted with fond exasperation, where was the reprimanding or cold backhanded words that cut like a knife?
She'd even treated her kindly, calling her sweetie more than she said her name. And she got used to it similar to how she'd gotten used to Seojun calling her princess, she knew she should fight it but she didn't want to. She was ashamed to say she liked it.ย 
She tries to soak it up for as long as she can before she says reluctantly, "I should probably go. it's getting late." Then she watches in a daze as the woman races off before returning with containers stacked and tied in a bag.
Before she can argue or refuse their mom is already shaking her head, "You made this so it's only right that you take it home. I won't take no for an answer." At this point that should have been the Han family motto she thinks fondly. But she accepts the food, bowing in gratitude at the simple act of kindness.
"Unnie, can I have your number? I just realized I don't have it and we're so close!" Gowoon thrusts her phone out with two hands, giving her the biggest puppy eyes she's ever seen. Without a word she accepts the phone, punching in her number before handing it back. She hadnโ€™t realized the girl considered them close, but she finds that she doesnโ€™t mind it at all.ย 
"Thank you! I'll text you so you can have my number too." The younger girl dances in celebration before grabbing her in a hug, she awkwardly pats her on the back once before she's finally set free. They're all so naturally affectionate and she's not the least bit accustomed to it, used to harsh words and slaps instead of praises and hugs.
"Get home safely sweetie. Junnie! Where did you go? Come walk her home!" She rushes to say it's okay she doesn't need an escort home, she's fine walking by herself it truly wasn't that far it turned out. But Seojun comes out of his room, changed again with a coat on and a beanie. Walking over to them he thrusts a sweater at her, when she looks blankly he replies sounding defensive, "It's probably colder now. Put this on too." He pushes it at her again firmer and she grabs it, gasping when their fingers brush.
It's a thick dark green sweater with fleece lining the interior and it smells just like his earthy cologne, she wants to give it back. Instead she puts it on over her borrowed long sleeve shirt from Suho and feels like a child playing dress up when it reaches the bottom of her knees. She knows what he's thinking when he smirks at her, she wasn't short he was just a damn giant.
She takes off the slippers and slides back into her sneakers, thankful that they're dry now. She's distracted by Seojun's heat, he's so close to her putting on his own boots. So much so she nearly misses what his mother says, "Get home safely. Please come again soon, I need more maturity in this house." Seojun and Gowoon both shout affronted but all she can see is the genuine smile on her face, she finds herself nodding throat too thick for words. When she's pulled into another hug, this time she has to blink away tears arms still by her side. Sheโ€™s vibrating from keeping her emotions contained.ย 
They are walking side by side, the sounds of the city filling the silence that would be present. Every once in a while their arms brush but he moves away after the third time and she feels cold, more so than when the wind blows.
They're getting closer to Suho's apartment and she's wrecking her brain to find something to say to him, knowing that the ball is in her court; it always has been. She's just terrified to swing her racket. What if she misses? Or trips and embarrasses herself? It was usually better to just do nothing then you wouldn't be disappointed.
With each step she loses more courage until they are standing in front of the building and she still hasn't said anything.
Coward.
They stand awkwardly looking at the building pointedly avoiding each other and she finally speaks, "Oh your sweater! Here you go." She says stupidly, not at all what she wanted to say but she starts to pull the sweater off to commit to her exclamation. However he steps back shaking his head at her.
"It's cold. Just wear it upstairs. I'll get it later from Suho, you won't have to see me again. Go up." He sounds deflated, nothing like the animated jokester she'd seen just minutes at his apartment. It aches that she's the one making him act this way.
Then he turns around after looking at her, all of the light drained from his eyes.
He takes three large steps, putting immeasurable space between them in no time and she knows that if she lets him walk away right now he might not come back and that's a gut wrenching thought that makes her chase after him.
Thoughtlessly, she grabs his arm halting his exit from her life.
"Wait!" She shouts, but at the first touch of her hand on his forearm he's already frozen, still in her arms. He doesn't turn around. She shoots him a silent mental thank you, even if it's not his intention it's much easier to say what's on her mind like this without him facing her and her feeling too open and vulnerable.ย 
"I know you're the one making me food." There was supposed to be a thank you somewhere in there but instead she ends up sounding accusatory, and he tenses instantly his arm tight in her grasp.
"I'll stop. I know you told me to leave you alone. I--just. There's no excuse. I'll stop."
His voice is strained and this is going all wrong already, she's ruining everything.
Letting go of his arm, she sidesteps and brazenly moves directly in front of him. She can't keep hiding from this. She needed to be vulnerable, that was the only way he could understand.
His eyes are wet.
She gasps at the sight, not expecting it and so jealous at his ability to just feel and be seen. She was always hiding from everything.ย 
"Don't."
He doesn't give her a chance to finish.
"Sujin. Let me go. I know already, I know it all. I can't like you, I shouldn't get my hopes up, I need to mind my business. I know it all!" He shouts, pain marring his face but she notices how he still tugs his arm free gently, still careful about harming her even while heโ€™s breaking down.ย 
She doesnโ€™t deserve this.ย 
This is all her fault she knows that to be an objective truth, but the way he throws her own words back at her makes her realize how cruel she'd been while trying to spare him. She hadn't spared anything, the pain in his eyes and voice makes that abundantly clear.
"Don't stop. Don't give up on me." She finishes, staring at him with her own wet eyes, tears prickling at them.
His shoulders sink as he stares at her, lost and hesitant.ย 
"I'm sorry. Iโ€™m sorry for saying those things to you.ย  I can't promise I won't push you away again. I'm...I'm fucked up Seojun-ah. I'm a fucking mess. But I want to stop, I don't want to push people away."
I don't want to push you away. But sheโ€™s still too much of a coward to say that out loud.ย 
"Sujin, what-what are you trying to say?" He looks at her with guarded eyes, not yet ready to believe the words coming out of her mouth.
"I want to be friends."
She watches him wrestle with her sentence, hurt being covered up by a faรงade and she's not obtuse, she knows that's not the answer he was hoping for. Knows he thinks she's friend zoning and clipping the wings of his feelings.
"That's all I can deal with right now. I have a lot to work on, I need to work on me." It may seem like a cop out, an excuse but it's the most honest she's ever been with herself, it's not that she doesn't like him she might- if the way her heart thumps when heโ€™s around says anything- but more importantly she has realized that she doesnโ€™t like herself.
"Right now." He repeats in awe, she blinks confused before realizing the implications of her words, she starts sputtering trying to backtrack but he's too quick beating her to the punch.
"I can do friends. For now." She blushes at the beaming smile on his face, his happiness over such a small acquiesce is too much. Why did he have to wear his heart so obviously on his sleeves?
They stand simply staring at each other. Locked in the moment.
She might need to remind her heart that they'd only agreed to be friends.
For now.

I don't like onions.
She doesn't know what possesses her to text him first, or what compels her to send that particular message. She starts googling if there's a way to unsend messages, instead finding stories from others regaling their own embarrassing messages and finding solace that she isn't alone in this feeling.ย 
She jumps when her phone vibrates. Slowly turning it over like it's a ticking bomb.
Of course you'd be a picky eater. Onions are good for you.
She rolls her eyes at the message, he was such a nagger.
It's not good if I don't enjoy it.
Alright princess, noted. No more onions. Are you okay with chicken teriyaki tomorrow?
She recalls the delicious chicken teriyaki he'd made for her just days ago, it was succulent and juicy and she'd fought Suho over it, reminding him that this was her food and she replies quickly.
Yes! Do you have more kimchi?
I do. I'll pack some.
She stares at the phone, in disbelief at the how easy it is to talk to him again, like there was an empty spot in her life, a Seojun shaped gap that was now filled once more. She wasn't fixed, she had meant what she told him; she couldn't examine her feelings for him yet. But she needed him in her life, he was there when she needed someone and now no one else would do.
I missed you.

The Auction

Pairing: Sam Winchester/Dean Winchester
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: 2209
Summary: This is about what happens when Dean finds his brother tied up suggestively. ย 
AO3
@@@@@
Agent Clegg is the Butterfly.
Sam curses himself for not realizing that.
Forcing wrists, chest, and ankles against leather in the last few minutes hasn't been effective. Still, Sam tries again.
Clegg sells people to monsters, sex slaves to be exact. And Sam will be next if Dean doesn't find him in time.
The transmission begins as soon as the computer and cameras are ready.
Sam keeps struggling with the bonds, despair preventing him from accepting the inevitable without a fight. Or he tries at least.
When the Butterfly announces his name, Sam feels his heart in his throat. The number of monsters bidding for him is frightening, and he can't help thinking about how sick it all is, even more when it only takes a few minutes for Sam to be sold. He can see on the computer screen that the bidder is a vampire, and the amount to be paid is impressive. But it's not comforting at all.
Clegg seems satisfied with the result, a sardonic smile on his face as he approaches Sam, and his breathing quickens, which doesn't help the clenching fear in his gut.
"It's time to show everyone that you're worth every penny," Clegg says while he starts undoing his belt.
Sam knows what's going to happen.
"Sorry, kid. It's showtime."
He pulls on the bonds with force, inevitable survival instinct forcing his body to go on alert. And that's when the door opens with a bang.
A shot echoes in the room. The man doesn't even see what hits him, falling to the floor like a sack of potatoes.
Sam blinks a few times before his brain realizes he is safe. Dean found him in time.
"Sammy! Are you okay? What the Hell is going on here?"
Sam wants the safety of his brother's arms around him, but this isn't the right place for it. Then he forces himself to respond in the most stable voice he can muster, "Sex, they're auctioning people off for sex. And there is a demonstration before."
A demonstration is what Agent Clegg was starting to do when Dean interrupted him.
Sam sees anger on his brother's face. He knows that if the man weren't already dead he would suffer a painful death at Dean's hands again. The sharp look also checks Sam before looking around, eyes staring straight at the cameras.
"The damn freaks are watching, huh?"
"Yes," Sam answers, then remembering the vulnerability of his situation, tied to a table similar to those for gynecological examination and naked from the waist down, ass on display.
"Turn off the cameras and untie me," he says, forcing the bonds on his arms and legs again still without any result.
Dean seems to come out of his trance, "What?"
His brother's look changes to something predatory and dark as soon as he realizes Sam's condition.
"No," Dean says.
"Dean? What the fuck, man?" Sam struggles again, which is useless because there is no escape.
Dean puts his gun on the table next to Sam, and if he could get that, he wouldn't hesitate to shoot his big brother right now.
"At least once in your life, stop thinking with your cock," Sam's voice is strident, reflecting the hysteria he feels.
"C'mon, Sammy, it's going to be fun."
His brother takes off his coat and tie. There is no doubt that Dean is impressive like that, intent on devouring Sam all over his face. And Sam likes the feeling of helplessness every time they use handcuffs or ropes in sex. But the timing is wrong, not to mention that everything is being streamed online.
"Let me go, Dean," he tries again.
His brother's expression is one that not even ten vampires could dissuade him from his goal, however. Determination is one of Dean's most significant personality traits, one that Sam has to deal with and often fight against to maintain some of his own independence.
Green eyes fix on Sam's ass, hungry and appraising, and it makes him feel like an offering at an altar of sacrifices.
When agile fingers open the leather holding Sam's chest and the buttons on his white shirt, pushing it to the side and leaving his belly and chest exposed, he knows that Dean won't give up.
"You'll need your shirt clean to get out of here," Dean states the obvious.
"C'mon, Dean. Be reasonable."
The smirk on Dean's face isn't reasonable at all.
His brother kneels where Sam's ass is at the edge of the table, and the next protest dies with the first lick over his hole. The hands on Sam's buttocks are cold, but the heat on Dean's tongue is abrasive.
"Oh, Godโ€ฆ"
Sam's attempt to prevent his moans is pathetic, and this is all because of the tongue assaulting him. Rimming is one of his weaknesses, and his idiot of a brother knows that very well.
"Sammy, we're tough guys, and people are watching us," Dean interrupts what he's doing, a smirk playing on his wet lips. And fuck, Sam wants that mouth back on his ass, consequences be damned. After almost being raped by Clegg, he deserves a great orgasm.
"Monsters, Dean. They are monsโ€”"
Dean licks and sucks again. Sam's coherence disappears. His big brother has his face tucked between his asscheeks, fucking him mercilessly with that sinful tongue. Sam's cock goes from limp to erect so fast that it makes him dizzy. He'd no idea how much heโ€™s needed it until now, still knowing he'll complain because of the burn caused by Dean's stubble afterward.
Sam loves and hates that Dean can reduce him to a moaning mess with just his tongue. He doesn't even want to imagine what those people watching are thinking of him. Then he remembers they are monsters and it doesn't matter anymore.
Dean goes for it, licking and sucking, and Sam squirms his hole against the long organ. He needs Dean deeper and tries to show what he wants without having to express it out loud.
The tongue disappears then, making Sam groan in frustration.
"Do you want anything, Sammy?" Dean gives him a leering look.
Fucker. His brother has no right to know him so well and take advantage of him on top of that.
"No," he lies.
"Are you sure?" The little shit licks his lips suggestively.
And Sam needs that tongue back. He pulls his arms and legs, causing only the leather to rub against his sensitive skin.
"Please, Dean."
"What?" His big brother has an irritating smirk on his face.
"Deeper," it is whispered.
"I didn't hear that," the bastard insists.
"I need you to eat me deeper."
This time Sam sees the numbers on the computer screen increase rapidly, even though the auction is over.
"Do you love it? Don't you? Your big brother's tongue fucking your sweet hole?"
A finger touches the wrinkled skin, which makes Sam more desperate for Dean's tongue.
"Please..." He begs, to Hell with his remaining dignity.
A huge satisfied smile is the last thing Sam sees before Dean's tongue goes back to his hole. His brother laps at his entrance and Sam moans at how good it feels. Closing his eyes, Sam focuses on the sensations and how hot and soft Dean's tongue is. Step by step, he falls apart. And as always, Dean makes him come quickly and intensely, heat invading his body until it ends in white drops over his belly and chest.
When he can open his eyes again, he sees the mess he made on his own skin. So, the restrictions on his arms and ankles no longer bother him, and he remains passive on the table.
"Fu-ck."
"I'll get there," Dean jokes, getting back on his feet.
The swollen lips and saliva on it shouldn't be that sexy. Sam stares up at his big brother with half-lidded eyes while a hand collects some of the semen on his skin.
"It's not the best lube, but it's still better than spit," Dean says while doing a quick job with the improvised lube. The next thing Sam feels is his brother's cock against his entrance.
"De..." His vocal cords are still not working properly after a mind-blowing orgasm.
"Relax, Sammy. You just have to stay there, pretty and calm, and I'll do all the work."
What an idiot. As if Sam has another option at the moment.
When Dean pushes in, his muscles resist a little before giving in and receiving the big cock easily.
"Fuck, Sammy, so good."
Without being in a position to do anything, Sam just groans in response, his limp member trying to get hard again prematurely. The impulses start as soon as Dean is buried to the hilt, one hand gripping Sam's waist. And it makes him think of the helplessness of his situation. Dean is free to do whatever he wants with him, and while it is scary, there is also excitement with all the possibilities available.
"I love feeling your slutty hole around my cock."
Dean can't keep his mouth shut during sex, but Sam likes it because it's familiar, even when the lines sound like the worst kind of porn.
"You're so fucking tight. It doesn't feel like you take it up the ass on a regular basis."
"Shut up, Dean," Sam says, mainly because those freaks watching them don't need all the details about their sex life.
Dean raises an eyebrow at the unusual order, but he shut up. As a result, hips increase their speed, and all becomes pounding skin, a repetition of moans and grunts, and even some incoherent cries, which Sam will deny later, of course.
Suddenly he realizes that Dean is so fucking deep, filling spaces that should never be empty. He feels split open and belonged, so entirely that everyone watching can see it on his face probably. They won't have any doubts about who owns him. And Dean shows his dominance with each hard thrust, the unquestionable control over Sam's body. So, it's inevitable for Sam to give everything he has, his body and his submission to Dean. No restrictions. No boundaries. What they can't see, though, is that Dean also owns his heart, always and forever.
A second orgasm breaks through Sam's body, unexpected and just as intense as the first. His scream isn't manly at all, and a smile lights up his big brother's face, but Dean doesn't say anything, just pushing towards his own orgasm, eyes fixed on Sam's.
He marvels at the fervor he witnesses, and then heat invades his interiors. Dean screams his name with a passion, reaffirming the unbreakable bond that connects them. He closes his eyes and gets lost in the pleasure still running through his body, never wanting it to end, but the sound of gunshots brings him back to reality, making him open his eyes. Sam then realizes that Dean pulled out of him, picked up his gun, and is destroying the cameras installed in the room.
"Show's over," Dean says in his usual hunter way.
"Jesus Christ, Dean! Can you untie me now?" The awareness of his state returns with full force.
"Maybe," Dean says, a devilish grin on his face.
"Dean!" Sam hopes to be showing all the indignation that he feels right now.
"Just kidding, dude."
Dean turns his attention to him and in seconds Sam is free. His movements aren't as fast as he would like, but he manages to button his shirt and get off the table without help, despite the pain radiating from his ass to his legs. Semen is definitely discarded as lube.
As soon as Sam puts on his underwear, the door opens again with a bang. And this time it's Donna with a gun in her hand.
"Sam? Dean?"
Dean walks in front of Sam, hiding his half-naked body from Donna.
"Oh, my God! Are you okay, Sam?"
Dean answers for him, "He's fine. I got here in time. When he's dressed, we'll meet you outside."
'Okay' is all Sam hears before the door closes softly.
Blushing, Sam puts on his pants as fast as he can.
"If she paid attention to your open belt and the lack of his coat and tie, she knows, you moron."
Donna is a police officer, and Sam does not doubt that it was easy for her to deduce what actually happened here.
Dean looks at him, his characteristic smirkโ€”and annoying by the wayโ€”on his face. "She accepted monsters were real, so I don't think kink sex between brothers is going to be a problem at all."
"Do you have to say it that way, Dean? Now I feel dirty."
Sam ends with his belt, breathing relieved by the feeling of security that the clothing offers him.
"Nothing that a bath won't fix, bitch," Dean laughs.
"Jerk," he can't resist and ends up laughing too.
"C'mon show is over. For real this time," his big brother says.
Presentable again, they walk to the door, Dean leading the way.
"I think we should buy a table like that, Sammy."
"Absolutely not," it's his automatic response.
With one last look at the table, Sam leaves the room. And maybe he has to agree that Dean's idea is interesting.
Maybe.
