Crush Culture -Gwourtney short fic-

It's the day before Valentine's and Courtney’s laying by her ex's side, in a bed, watching Legally Blonde.

And now she thinks of it, isn’t that just pathetic, she should be studying. Even id she's far surpassed most of her classes from sheer willpower alone and now is ahead in possibly every aspect you can be.

And yet sitting down to an exam still makes her stomach churn in a way she would never admit to anyone. She shuffles in the sheets lifting herself off her back to gauge Duncan’s reactions to whoever he’s texting on his phone, Gwen probably. He’s girlfriend.

Courtney sours at the thought of her, a lanky, pale goth girl who had done just what Courtney had been telling herself she would for years, and stole her boyfriend. It had bothered her alot at first but now, in hindsight, Duncan was totally dead weight. She bit her lip and turned to her side.

At least she had something on Duncan that could make his stomach churn and his face twist in anguish just as she had. Gwen had slid into her DM’s about five weeks ago. While she and Duncan were together, asking if they had broken up, asking if she had a shot. With Courtney.

Courtney was scared out of her wits at the mere idea had shut that down real fast, sliding out of instagram and blocking her. Which may have been an extreme reaction but it was to keep herself focused.

She was admittedly the tiniest bit acknowledging Gwen's attractiveness. One so much more appealing than Duncan’s brand of shitty jokes and just plain sexism. But she hadn’t trusted herself so she deserted that moment because it had the possibility of happening. Now she studied a picture of Gwen, Gwen who was a bit of a viral blogger in her own right who drew online for commerce beside college and had her own blog.

Logged into the incognito browser and admired her black nails and chunky platform boots that had straps and black streaks all across them, she bit her lip again.

Fuck.

Duncan let out a chuckle at something on screen and Courtney turned away from the fluorescent light of her phone, she focused on the movie.

—-

“Uh hey Ms Class President.” a sardonic voice called out from across the hall. Courtney recognised that vice and so the tight grip on her bag straps began to loosen and she relaxed. Before she realised that, she recognised that voice and it was one of the ones she’d feared most. Still she obliged and turned around, she was after all ‘Ms Class President’.

“Gwen.” Courtney says, swivelling around.

“Hey.”

Gwen smirks. Taking time to look Courtney over with a satisfied smirk on her face.

“Hey, Courtney, how's life?” She asks leaning against Courtney’s locker cornering against the masses of college students that continue to crowd around the highschool halls. She felt hot and squished.

“It's good, I’m on top of everything and shit so it's good, what about you?” Courtney asks, looking up at her, observing heavy eyeliner and dark red lipstick. ‘Different’ she thinks amusedly.

“I’m good, really good.” She leans closer to Courtney and then Courtney notices a small thing, something that she’s clutching between pale fingers.

“Actually I came here to give you something…” She hands Courtney a note, on graph paper.

“Thanks.” Courtney says take it cautiously.

Gwen gestures to it encouraging her to read it. Courtney does.

Wanna do shit behind the girls' dorms :)

Courtney hacked a bit at that, “Oh my god!"

"Gwen!"

Gwen smirks, “I don’t know if this was clear but I am actually totally into you, by shit I mean the fact that ‘Fried Green Tomatoes’ is playing outside on the field by the girls' dorms tonight, I heard it was pretty romantic.” She says.

“I would love to watch a movie about elderly lesbians in the 80’s, especially with you." Courtney says, she rubs the back of her neck and catches Gwen's grin.

"My intention was to set the mood, you know, to focus on us. Focus on whatever this is happening between us." Gwen says.

"I want flowers next time, but yeah I'd really like that."

"you were a little slow this time," spiderman says when you finally open your balcony door. you grumble at him while rubbing the sleep out of your eyes.

it's october 31st. it's halloween night, but you're too tired to actually enjoy yourself. today's classes were exhausting and all you want to do now is hug a plushie and drift to sleep.

spiderman seems to catch up on your sleepy state; "you look like a little kid waking up from a dream," he chuckles, bringing a hand to mush your cheeks. he laughs again when you don't pull away, realising how tired you actually are, "can i come in, little one?"

you mumble something similar to a "don't call me that" and nod, moving a little to let him in and closing the door once he's in your living room. kazuha smiles at the slight smell of cinnamon coming from your kitchen. you did mention wanting to make cinnamon rolls on your own some time ago.

(he replied asking why you wanted to make yourself, since you're a cinnamon roll to him. you threw your brush at him in response, but didn't shoo him away when he hugged you, cooing at your cuteness and nuzzling his cheek in yours.)  

his eyes don't leave your figure as you waddle up to him, grasping his fingers in yours to tug him closer. "aren't you supposed to be on patrol?" you ask sleepily. "a lot of people do dumb shit on halloween.. be careful.."

spiderman smiles when you lean on his chest. "you always get affectionate when you're sleepy, lovebug," he hums as he wraps an arm around your waist, hugging you properly, "i thought i'd find you trick or treating around the neighbourhood, and yet here you are. was today tiring?"

"i'm too old for trick or treating, you know." you answer sleepily, humming under your breath as you cuddle up his chest. his suit is more comfortable than you thought. you could feel his heartbeat if you focused enough.

"sorry, you're just so tiny in my eyes that i can picture you looking for candies around the city." kazuha says through a laugh. you scoff a little, humming again when one of his hands starts caressing your head. spiderman feels himself smile at how vulnerable you look, trapped in his arms and close to falling asleep. he wishes he could steal you away and keep you somewhere only he knows.

and god, how much he wishes he could hold you like this without this mask on. if only he wasn't a nervous wreck everytime you and your friends came by, and if only he had a vague idea on how to approach you. it doesn't help that your friends usually order for you, either.

"do you still want me to go on patrol, lovebug? i'd rather stay here with you."

"i want you to stay, too. you can get that corner of the ceiling, make yourself a web and become my new roommate if you want. just don't let other spiders come around."

kazuha giggles at your words, cradling your face in his hands to squish your cheeks (and while you usually squirm away out of embarrassment, this time you whine and try to cling to his chest. again, he wonders how tired you actually are.)

"how am i supposed to leave when you're being so adorable, hm?" he murmurs over your lips, cursing the fabric covering his. his fingers trace them as you struggle to keep your eyes open, yearning to just tug him to bed and sleep.

"then don't," you say, leaning in his touch and pecking his fingers lazily, "stay the night. there's other people dressed up as spiderman, anyway."

for a second, kazuha is tempted to say no: like you said, a lot of people cause trouble on halloween night and he should ensure everyone's safety. on the other hand, a tiny voice in him reminds him of how much crimes decreased ever since he started being the city's vigilante. a lot of criminals almost gave up at this point, so.. he can take the night off, right? just for today.

oh, fuck it. his crush is asking him to stay the night and hell if he doesn't want to cuddle you to sleep.

"are you sure, lovebug?" he asks, tapping your cheek twice to wake you a little, "i can't promise i won't get cuddly once we get under the covers."

you scoff at him again. "cuddling is the whole point of having you sleep over, dumbass. and you're clingy in the daytime, too." your cheeks get warmer and you look away, mumbling a "not that i mind" that doesn't go unheard.

"say that again, cutie?"

"you heard me."

"i didn't."

"so your spidey senses only work when you want them to, huh?"

kazuha giggles again. seriously, you're too cute. "alright, you win," he smiles and although you can't see it, you can feel the cheeriness radiating from him despite your sleepy state.

you wordlessly entangle yourself from him and intertwine your hands together, guiding him towards your bedroom and turning the living room's lights off as you go.

spiderman stays quiet until he squeezes your hand: "can i make a request? to keep that one barista guy away?"

you sigh. you already know what he's going to ask.

"can i give you hickies?

"only if you behave."

"i love you so much."

"i said, only if you behave."

- hide and seek 💤 although i'm late for halloween

I'M TRYING SO HARD NOT TO CRY ON MY FIFTEEN BRO @*@;@*#@&#;#,#<#&#;$ OHHNMGNY GGOFXD OH MY FOD OHH MY GOD HELP 😭😭💕💗💕💗💕💗

[itzy0megaverse]

how would alpha!itzy confess their feelings to omega!reader who is also a member of the group? <3

An : Thank you for the request but I've never done a 6th member au before... I have done it as you asked but just be aware the whole 6th member part might not be as good 😭😭

A!Itzy confessing their feelings to 6th member O!reader

Requested : ✔️

Reader : Gn

Tw : slightly angst, nothing else

*in this scenario you and Ryujin are roomies*

Yeji

"Is everything ok?" You're worried. You were sat playing on your phone with some other members there when Leader Yeji suddenly asked you to come to her room with her. It wasn't light hearted either. She sounded like this was going to be a serious talk. That feeling was made worse when she asked Chaeryeong to leave so you could be alone. After she'd left, you'd asked if everything was ok. "Sit down I need to get something off my chest." Hesitantly, you do as the alpha requested, sitting on the edge of her bed. Yeji grabbed a chair to sit directly in front of you.

"I've been thinking a lot recentl- well, for a long time actually. I'd noticed something about me that I didn't really like." Her voice was low and serious. "Yeji you'r-" "Please, just listen for now... I need to get this all out first then we can talk about it after." She pleaded with her eyes as well as her voice so the omega in you submits. You nod your head to tell her to continue.

"As our leader, I want to protect all of you. I want to love all of you. I want to respect all of you. Equally... but that's not happening. I can't decide these emotions and I love all the other members equally but you. You're so much more to me. I really like you... In more than a friend way." Yeji leans forward, resting her elbows on her knees, taking her hands in yours and looking into your eyes.

"I tried to deny it for so long because a leader should love all her members equally and who know what will happen with our careers.... but I can't hold it in anymore. I want to be your alpha."

[lq but it's the closest reaction]

Lia

You had a break from schedules and were lazing about at the dorms, in your room playing games all day. You'd stay there all day but you need snacks. Leaving the room you heard muffled voices that cleared up as you got closer to the living room. You froze in the doorway when you heard what Lia was saying.

"Why does she have to be so cute all the time though!! She isn't even trying!! She'll literally just be talking about what to eat for dinner and I wanna squish her little face in." Yeji was sat on the floor listening to Lia ramble and pace back and fourth in front of her. You'd never seen Lia when she had a crush so you stayed quiet and kept watch. With a massive sigh, Lia asked the question on her mind. "Is it bad to date a fellow member?" She likes a different member?? You think. Yeji stared at her for a few seconds then mumbled a sad "I don't know." Lia's head dropped as another sigh fell out. "I'm never going to have y/n as my omega, am I?" Wait. She likes me!?

Lia, still with slumped shoulders and bowed head, she goes to slug off towards her room..... but you're still there in the doorway. Panicked, she blurts out "How much of that did you hear!?"

Ryujin

You're sat watching a drama in the living room snuggled up with Chaeryeong. Sat on the floor wrapped up in the same blanket as her like a giant burrito with her laptop playing the show on the coffee table. You're both so absorbed in the show that it terrifies the both of you when Ryujin storms past and down the corridor to your room. Chaeryeong leans forward to pause the show as you both stare down the corridor to where Ryujin had just been. You look back and ask "Did something happen?" but Chaeryeong had no answer either. You decide to go and check on her.

Knocking on the door gently to let her know you're there, you walk in to her looking herself in the mirror. "You ok?" You stand next to her leaning into the desk she's sat at. "Yeah, I'm fine. It's nothing anyway." With one last ruffle of her hair, she pushes away from the mirror and over to the dresser where she keeps her pajamas. Normally, cracking a joke makes Ryujin forget and eases the tension so you try it now. "Oh! My memory has suddenly gone and nothing happened.... Why am I in here to comfort you?" She let's out one chuckle with her back turned to you and nothing else follows.

Joking didn't work so it's time to be serious. You let out a sigh and try reassuring her. "Ryujin, please tell me what's wrong." With pajamas in hand, she goes to leave your room but not before whispering "It's stupid anyway..." Ryujin hoped you didn't hear but when you slammed the door shut she knew you had. "It's never stupid if it's bothering you this mu-" She cuts you off and starts speaking sarcastically but you can tell what she's saying is truthful. "Oh yeah, because having feelings for a band mate isn't stupid at all and getting annoyed when she's cuddling with anothet member is completely normal and struggling to share a room with someone you like is very natural even though you've shared a room with them for, like, 3 years now.... Yeah... That sounds so normal."

Caught off guard, she passes by you and out the door easily while your stunned. You know she's probably taking a shower so you wait for her by snuggling up in bed.... Hers not yours.

Chaeryeong

You knock gently on Chaeryeong's door, knowing that Yeji was in the kitchen and she was alone in there. "Hello?" You hear from the other side. "Can I come in?" A second of silence. "...Yeah!" Nudging open the door and slipping in, you spot Chaeryeong sat up on the bed, awkwardly watching you. She'd look at you for a second, then away, then back and away again. She'd completely avoid eye contact when you sit next to her.

"Is everything ok?.... Like... Between us..?" Chaeryeong had been acting different throughout all your schedules today, not talking to you unless necessary, sitting with other members every chance she got and was consistently avoiding you all day. From memory, you hadn't said anything to upset her so it was confusing as to what brought this on.

Chaeryeong sighed as her shoulders fell and head fell into her hands, defeated. "None of this is your fault... It's all me.. I'm not doing this because I don't like you, I'm doing this because I like you too much." Her face was still buried in her hands so you couldn't see her reaction nor her see yours. You were frozen in shock until a few gentle sobs broke into your ears. "How can I have a crush on one of my members!?"

Instinctively, you hug her. Her face still buried in her hands and your face buried in her hair.

Yuna

"Like why does it have to be so difficult!?" You're walking back and forth in Yuna's room complaining about the dance practice earlier today. There's this one move you just can't seem to wrap your head around and it's really bothering you so you needed to rant to someone. Yuna ended up being your victim. "Like how in the WORLD am I meant to swing my leg over while both hitting my foot against the floor and NOT hitting my foot agai-"

Your brain shuts off completely when Yuna is suddenly in front of you, pulling her face into hers and attatching your lips together. Sweet, soft, coffee scented lips on yours. Randomly. She waits until she feels you relax and kiss back a little, then she pulls away and explains. "Ugh! I've wanted to do that for so long.... You don't know how much I like you." This time you lean in, already too addicted to the feeling of her lips on yours.

[wri0thesley]

i know we all love toji being nasty, but i'd love to see a (slightly) sweeter side of him and the reader as mamaguro, if possible?? maybe featuring the reader in his lap, the first time toji's ever really wanted to really do right by his partner... the ability of a man like him to have a softer side has plagued me ever since akutami said he mellowed out with his wife 😭

saying the important things - toji x fem!reader (2.1k)

toji’s not the kind of man who wears his heart on his sleeve. but he’ll try, for you. 

warnings: none! reader is mamaguro and uses fem pronouns, pregnancy is briefly talked about. this is just soft honestly

[reblogs/comments appreciated! // my jjk masterlist]

Megumi is sleeping.

He lays in his crib, his chubby cheeks squished against the soft mattress, his hair dark and messy. At times like this, you can see so much of Toji in him, and it makes your heart ache. You can’t believe that you helped create something so perfect – from his tiny face, the tilt of his nose, the perfectly formed fingers and toes . . . You find it hard to believe that Megumi could really be yours.

“You’re starin’ at the kid again.”

Toji’s voice comes from behind you and startles you – you jump, guiltily turning to see your husband. His voice is dark and rough, but as you see him you realise that his face is anything but. Oh, sure – he has a scar bisecting the corner of his lip, muscles rippling out of a tight black shirt. But the look on his face is peaceful, and as he meets your eyes it just seems to fade into something even more so.

“You come stare at him,” you say, “you’ll understand why.”

He makes a little huff of amusement – but Toji Fushiguro is under your thumb, so he humours you by moving forward. Big arms wrap around your waist, making you feel safe and held in his embrace. His chin rests on your shoulder, sharp green eyes on the messy-haired bundle of wonder sleeping in the crib that you’d watched Toji build with a screwdriver clenched between his teeth.

(“How hard can it be?” He’d asked you. “S’flat pack, right? Guys who aren’t half as smart as me do it--”. In the end, it had taken six and a half hours and Toji had had to physically pick you up and sit you down on a chair because you couldn’t stop bending down to help. He’d placed his hands on his hips and pointed an accusing finger at you. “You’re gonna get yourself stressed, sweetheart, and it isn’t gonna do any good for the kid.” You hadn’t expected Toji Fushiguro to be the over-protective kind . . . but you’d be lying if you said that his pout and furrowed eyebrows weren’t adorable).

Megumi’s eyes had turned the same shade of green as Toji’s around the five month mark, for the record.

“We did a good job, huh?” There’s a hint of pride in Toji’s voice that he does his best to dampen down – he’s trying to be cool, even now. Your hands come to rest over his own, where they’re clasped onto your hips.

“I think we did a great job,” you tell him, and snorts out a little laugh against your neck that tickles, making you bend back into sub-consciously. “No, really. I think he’ll fetch a high price on the black market. Look at all of that hair.”

“Takes after me,” Toji tells you. “I think I’d fetch a high price too.”

“You know you’d fetch a high price,” you say, turning around to wrap your arms around his neck. You find yourself on your tip-toes just so you can feel a little closer to equal to him. “You’re a wanted man, Mr Fushiguro--”

“You’re a wanted woman, Mrs Fushiguro,” He says, bending his head – and his lips brush across yours, and you feel your entire body fill with the heady knowledge that he wants you. You know it – he makes it clear in the gentler way he holds you against him, his attempts to do chores around the house, the way his fingers entangle with yours when you’re out doing grocery shopping as a little family. But there’s something that you can’t quite express that feels all the more special about the embrace and the words when you two are on your own.

It hadn’t always been like this.

When you’d first met Toji, he’d been all dark flashing eyes and dangerous smile and tugging hands, a cigarette dangling from the corner of his mouth as he flirted and charmed his way into your life. His voice had been dark and deep, he’d winked at you and made insinuations and insisted, occasionally, that this wasn’t a relationship so much as a mutually beneficial arrangement--

Until someone else had flirted with you in a club and Toji had grabbed your hand and pulled you into him, arm wrapping around your waist. Perhaps you’d been trying to make him jealous – you’d long ago accepted that your crush on Toji and desire to make him yours officially were going to come to a sticky end, seeing as he seemed to value his freedom so highly – but you hadn’t expected it to work.

He’d murmured into your neck that night that you were his, forever, and he never wanted to see someone else’s hands on you again--

“Does this mean I can call you my boyfriend, finally, then?” You’d asked, a hand cupping his cheek, thumb brushing the scar on his lip. Toji had grinned at you, dark and deep and dangerous but warmer than you’d ever seen it. He’d held you that night like he’d just realised how precious you were.

“Sweetheart,” he’d said to you in response. “Hell. Y’can call me your husband if you want.”

You had laughed and thought he was joking.

“Maybe I’ll try that after a proper proposal,” you’d said, tapping his nose. You’d expected him to grab your hand before you could make contact and pin you underneath him, tell you off for being so cheeky – but instead, the pad of your finger had made contact with it and you swore you’d seen a dark flush dust his high cheekbones.

You’d figured that was the end of it, until two weeks later he’d pulled out an expensive-looking ring whilst the two of you watched a movie.

“Well?” He’d asked you, looking almost uncomfortable – almost afraid that you might say ‘no’. “Whaddya say, angel? Gonna try callin’ me husband now?”

And you had.

He’d confessed everything to you before he’d asked about taking your name. His exact line of work, why he wanted to leave his old surname behind – and though you know you shouldn’t have, you’d simply taken it in stride. If this was what it took to have him, you would accept it; it had been too long, and you loved him too much, to simply walk away. You’d found out you were expecting Megumi six weeks before the small wedding and had told Toji immediately.

He’d seemed scared, but he’d seemed excited to – whirling you around like you weighed nothing before he anxiously put you back down and stepped back.

“That’s fine, right?” He’d asked. “I dunno much about kids. I haven’t hurt ‘em or anything, have I?”

He’d made a real effort around the house whilst you were incapacitated by your pregnancy, too – sometimes too much of one, as he batted away your attempts at cooking or cleaning with an insistent ‘I can do it, sweetheart!”. You’d let him make mistakes – honestly, a couple of disasters notwithstanding he’d made a decent effort.

You’re not afraid to leave Megumi alone with him, though Toji still hasn’t quite mastered the life skill of ‘talking to my baby as if he is my child and not simply a friend who I want to slightly intimidate’.

Sometimes you see Toji sat in an armchair with Megumi in his arms, a tiny hand wrapped around Toji’s massive thumb, and you think you could die from how much you love them both.

“C’mon,” Toji murmurs, breaking the kiss. “He’s fast asleep.”

You let yourself be dragged over to said armchair in the corner of the room, next to the little case of children’s books you and Toji had chosen for him

Megumi likes dogs; he claps his pudgy little hands together whenever one is introduced in the bright colours and flat pages. At nine and a half months, he had furrowed his little face and pronounced; “Gog. Goggy.”. Toji had grabbed the cheap camcorder that he’d been recording as many milestones as possible on and tried to bully Megumi into saying it again, but all of the footage he’d actually gotten was you laughing in the background as Megumi attempted to cross his chubby little arms and look at his father in disapproval. He had not said ‘goggy’ again until you had thoughtlessly picked up a little pair of black and white stuffed dogs whilst in a toy-shop with him to show him. Toji had had to go back to the shop ten minutes before closing to purchase them, and even now Megumi tucks them under his arms when you take him out in his pushchair.

You let yourself, too, be pulled into Toji’s lap as your husband gets comfortable, readjusting your body so he can wrap his arms around you and you can bury your face into his neck.

He smells like cigarettes and your laundry powder, familiar and comforting.

He takes a deep, pleased breath that makes the muscles in his throat ripple – you bring up a hand and trace them, fingertip lodging in the hollow of his throat for a moment before your hand moves down to rest over his clavicle, and then where his heart is beating steadily under his clothes and skin.

“You feelin’ me up, baby?” He asks with a smirk. “Y’can just ask, you know--”

“I’m feeling your heartbeat,” you say to him, listening to his pulse in his neck. “I think it might have stopped. We should look into it.” “Is this because I made that joke about the black market? Babe, you’d never let me fuckin’ sell our kid--” “Don’t swear around Megumi,” you say, automatically, your eyes swivelling to Megumi’s crib without moving your head from its comfortable position. “You’ll give him a dirty mouth.”

“You love my dirty mouth,” Toji purrs, the arm around your waist pulling you in tighter and closer. Heat rushes to your face and you give him a headbutt in the neck that’s half affectionate and half warning.

“Not now,” you say, sighing comfortably. Toji is warm and solid and always there for you. “I’m too comfy.”

“Ah, far be it for me to interrupt your nap-time,” he teases, but he pushes a kiss onto your forehead anyway. “Hell, I could go to sleep here myself. Nobody said havin’ a kid would be this much effort.”

“Everyone said it,” you say, stifling a yawn. “You just didn’t believe them.”

He snorts again.

“Y’got me there,” he says. “Wouldn’t change him for the world, though.”

“You’re just saying that because he takes after you,” you smile against his skin. “If he looked like me and acted like me, if he was sweet and demure--”

This gets another laugh from Toji, who knows exactly just how not sweet and not demure you can be.

“I’d love him even more, probably,” he says. “We’re gonna have some fuckin’ blow-ups in the future, sweetheart. Good job you’ll be around to sort out your men, right?”

The arm not about your waist moves so he can cup your face now, tip your chin up towards him. His eyes are still very sharp, but they’re softened with love as he looks down at you. Toji gives you these moments in the quiet of night – when he’s not formerly-of-the-Zenin-family, when he’s not the ‘Sorcerer Killer’, when he’s not an assassin-for-hire – when he’s just Toji Fushiguro, your husband and father of your child. You treasure every single one of them and hold them close to you like a precious pearl, stringing them onto a necklace of memories you’ll cling to forever.

“I’ll be around forever,” you tell him. “If I die, I’ll come back to haunt you and tell you what a shitty job you’re doing on the PTA.”

He snorts.

“Don’t even joke,” he tells you with a flickering smirk – but that smirk quickly drops away to be replaced with a look of intense solemnity. “You know I love you, don’t you?”

“Are you getting soft on me?” You ask, but the hand tipping your chin up does a little jerk.

“Please,” Toji says, a little softer now. “Let me tell you I love you and mean it.”

Sparks fly all through your stomach, your heart twisting in your ribcage. You rarely see this kind of gravitas on his face – he rarely takes this tone, almost needy as he implores you to listen.

“I love you too,” you breathe. “You know that.”

He pulls you into a kiss that knocks the breath out of you, that makes you feel like you and Toji and Megumi are the only real people on Earth and everyone else is an imitation.

“Yeah,” he says, gruff. “Doesn’t mean I don’t like hearin’ you say it, though.”

The Lovestruck~Chapter 25

Coming days were nothing but a bundle of joy and moments, where you wanted time to stop or just capture those moments. After Baekhyun's first visit, he kept visiting your family and has gotten close to them.

Sometimes, you will find him in the kitchen with your mom helping her or with your dad having some discussion where you could hear them laughing about something. Baekhyun was already close with Daniel but by coming often, they became more close and not to mention, He and Jae have become best buddies.

Chanyeol and Ria's relationship was going stronger with the time whereas, Sehun was trying hard to impress Park Sooyoung and it was going well for now.

Mark finally had the courage to ask his crush out on a date while you and Ria being his friends were the most happiest ones. One thing definitely came a surprise to you when Lauren apologized to you and the boys.

You all did forgive her as there's nothing good in holding grudge for a long time and you could notice her change of character as she was also trying to do everything for Rowoon to forgive her.

It was an usual day where you were gathered in the cafeteria, eating and talking with your seniors about the exams which were aproaching soon as everyone continued their lunch before leaving to study.

Coincidentally, yours and Baekhyun's exams were starting after two weeks. Ria and Chanyeol went to a Café to study there, while you and Baekhyun headed towards your locker to get your bag.

You were shoving your things in your bag while Baekhyun just stood there leaning his shoulder against the locker and watching you doing it where both of you unaware of the dreamy stares of some girls in the hallway.

"Ugh, I still have two chapters to finish." You groaned, zipping your bag and Baekhyun looked at you confused. "Weren't you studying last night?"

"I wanted to but thanks to someone, I couldn't because they wanted to talk for fifteen minutes and I didn't knew that fifteen minutes would be that long enough to make me sleep." You flashed him a sarcastic smile and he bit his lower lip nodding.

"And that someone is me?"

"Glad, you know that."

He chuckled taking your bag in one hand before grasping your hand and walked out heading to the library.

As you both entered in the library, you found your seats beside eachother and began to study. After some time, your eyelids went heavy and before you know it, your head was on the book and drifted in your dreamland.

Baekhyun who was busy typing on his laptop, took a brief glance at you to see you sleeping peacefully with your cheek squished on the book. He smiled as how adorable you looked before taking his phone and opened the camera to capture your sleeping face.

He slightly smiled at the taken picture and put it back before taking closing your other notebooks.

"She sleeps like a baby." He mused tucking hair behind your ear and stared at you with a dreamy smile on his lips before continuing his work while glancing at you time to time.

You stirred feeling uncomfortable and opened your eyes to see your boyfriend's focused in his work and you took the chance to stare at his face which looked nothing but attractive.

"Rise and shine sleepyhead." He spoke without looking at you and you snapped out sitting up straight before stretching your body.

"How long I was sleeping?" You rubbed your eyes and leaned back to look at him.

"Barely 20 minutes." He said closing his laptop and turned to you. "You slept well, thanks to someone."

You pressed your lips together trying not to grin at his remark but all in vain when you saw him smiling while packing up his things. You grabbed his wrist to check time and it was time to go to the Café before packing your things and left with him.

You both started working where Baekhyun informed Rose that he won't be able to work at the Café after his graduation which was too close for your liking. Rose was a little upset but she couldn't do anything about it too and you also were a little sad thinking about it.

Then someone's presence surprised you at the Café who was none other than Somi herself. She came to meet Baekhyun and you as she was moving to abroad for her further studies.

You both understood and as the closing time approached, Rose and you were seated on the table chatting with Somi where you forgot that your boyfriend was present too.

Baekhyun standing at the counter watching those three women busy laughing at something and to his girlfriend who seemed to be forgetting about him. Aproaching your table, he sat beside you but to his surprise, you didn't look at him.

Baekhyun began to sulk and took a sip from your orange juice but pouted when you didn't glance at him then sighing, he just played with the tip of your open hair but little did he knew, you were secretly glancing and smiling at him.

Not long after, Somi went home and Rose also closed the Café where Jack came to pick her up and both left leaving you and your sulky boyfriend behind.

"Hey!" You bumped your shoulder to his to get his attention and he rolled his eyes slightly pouting.

"You finally remember that you have a boyfriend." He remarked sarcastically and you stiffed your laugh.

"Eyy! What are you talking about? I'd never forget about you."

He lowly scoffed. "Didn't seem like that earlier."

You bit your lip. "That was because I wouldn't see Somi again but you have me for lifetime."

He turned his head away from you as he tried not smile at your words and stick to his sulking mission which was getting hard now.

You chuckled as you saw him smiling. "Geez, this sulky baby."

He whipped his head towards you surprised. "Did you just say baby?"

Your eyes enlarged and you coughed out. "I said sulky too."

"I only hear good things." He stated before turning away his head again.

"Come on!" You held his hand swaying it lightly. "Stop being mad, How about I treat you something?"

He looked down at your swaying hands and then you frowning. "Excuse me? Your bribe won't work on me."

"But I think it's working." You smiled trying peek at his face and he couldn't resist but smile at your cute grin.

"Gosh, I can't even stay mad at you." He muttered making you giggle and you pecked his cheek before dragging him towards his car.

"Let's go have ice-cream!"

Baekhyun frowned. "Wait.. Wasn't it me getting something?"

You nodded. "Yeah but we'll have ice-cream too."

"No, young lady. You already had that cold orange juice and now cold ice-cream? You'll get sick." He opened the door and you sat in the front seat before he walked towards the other.

"But I'm craving for ice-cream!" You whined buckling your seatbelt and he sighed too hard to even say no to you before started driving while just hoping for you not to get sick.

(12 May)

10:23 am

Eyes wanting to be closed as the burning sensation rushed into your whole body making you lose your concentration in the class and needless to say, your head was aching so much like someone was banging it with a hammer.

You actually woke up with a slight headache but shrugged it off thinking it would go away but the opposite happened.

As the class was over, you instantly put your head on desk and closed your eyes where Ria sitting beside you came to check you up as she couldn't in the middle of the class.

"Y/n, You're burning up." She gasped placing her hand on your forehead and eyed your face turning pale worringly.

Meanwhile, Baekhyun was standing against the wall, hands tucked into his pockets outside of your classroom. The minute he saw you in the morning looking pale, he was sure you weren't well and hence he came here worried.

He instantly straightened himself when students began coming outside and they were shook to see him there. Not long before, the professor walked out and Baekhyun greeted him before walking inside.

As soon as he entered inside, his eyes spotted you sitting with your head on the desk and Ria by your side checking up on you. Ria looked up and felt relieved seeing Baekhyun coming towards them and stepped aside to let him see you.

You flinched feeling a cold hand on your forehead and opened your lazy eyes to see Baekhyun before sitting up.

"You have fever." He spoke calmly and you nodded slowly too lazy to speak.

"Let's go to infirmary, can you stand up?" He asked and you nodded.

He held your hand and you slowly stood up but a sudden pain hit your head making your vision blurry and you tried to hold something for you to hold you up but then you felt a hand on your back making you sit back.

"Sorry.. I-"

"It's okay." His arm slide around your waist and other under your knees before he picked you up. "It's okay, I've got you."

You nodded wounding your arms around his neck and your head in the crook of his neck where he felt your burning forehead making him sigh.

He looked back at Ria who was watching you worringly before he gestured her to get your stuffs and She nodded picking your stuff while walking outside with her internally squealing at the scene.

Baekhyun noticed the whispers and gasps as he walked down the hallway but he couldn't careless about it and pulled you closer hiding your face in his neck and headed outside.

____________

Your eyes flutter opened and you were greeted by a white ceiling before sighing getting the attention of your bestfriend sitting on the chair beside you.

"Y/n, how are you?" She stood up and made you sit on the bed before you eyed the room and realized you were at the infirmary of your college.

"I'm feeling better." You weakly smiled at her before looking around for Baekhyun and Ria seemed to notice it. "Baekhyun Sunbae went to get your things."

You nodded. "But don't you have classes to attend?"

"Yeah I will, once Baekhyun Sunbae comes. I can't leave you alone here."

You chuckled. "I'm fine, go before you get late."

She was about to protest but Baekhyun walked inside with your bag in his hand and saw you sitting, he paced towards you faster and that's when Ria left leaving you both alone.

"You still have fever." He placed the back of his hand on your forehead and you leaned into his touch. "Rest some more."

You scrunched your nose shaking your head. "I want to go home."

He nodded making you stand up. "How are you feeling?"

"I feel like if I take one more step, my head will fall off."

He snorted slinging your bag over his shoulder and you frowned. "You weren't supposed to laugh, I was expressing myself."

"Sorry, your way of expressing was a little funny."

You rolled your eyes too lazy to snap back while he wrapped his arm around your shoulder helping you walk outside and the nurse smiled at two sweetly.

Walking to his car, he placed your bag in the back seat with his bag before opening the front seat door and you sat in. He buckled your seatbelt and kissed the back of your hand as he closed the door leaving you smiling.

He started driving and kept glancing at you who's eyes were closed making him grab your hand gently as he caressed it slowly.

"Someone really didn't listened to me yesterday." He spoke and you bit your lip tightening your grip on his hand.

"No lectures please." You unconsciously pouted and he chuckled before pulling the car over to your house.

You both stood infront of your front door and he fished out keys from your bag before opening it. Your parents went to a wedding and Daniel was on his school trip while Jae was at his workplace.

You already told Baekhyun about it and hence he followed you till your room until he made you sit on the bed. He made you eat your medicine which you swallowed without whining leaving Baekhyun surprise.

"I'm okay now." You said as he placed the glass on the nightstand and looked at you. "You must be busy so you-"

"I'm not that busy." He cut you off. "And I can just bring my laptop here so don't feel bothered and just rest."

You nodded as you lay down and he wrapped the duvet over you before kissing your forehead he gave you a smile and left your room.

You stirred in your sleep and woke up hearing noises from downstairs and sat up thinking your parents are back before checking the time to see it was 4 in the evening.

Getting off the bed, you washed up and changed into your pajamas as always before heading downstairs. Reaching down, you spotted Baekhyun with your mom in the kitchen while eyeing something intently of what she was cooking.

You sighed not really surprised at the view infront of you and settled yourself on the dining table. You flinched by your dad's presence beside you and looked at him confusingly.

"Open your mouth." You frowned but then saw a thermometer in his hand and open it up as he placed it inside before taking it out after seconds.

He nodded. "Your fever is down now."

He walked in the kitchen and they began to talk about something making you smile at the sight before Baekhyun glanced at you and smiled. Soon, they were done with their things and turns out, your mom was cooking a soup for you and Baekhyun was learning it for some reason.

After a while, Jae came back from work and Baekhyun got busy with him. As the time went by, he was going home but your parents stopped him insisting him to have dinner here and he couldn't refuse them hence, he stayed for dinner.

Walking in hands in hands together as you were walking him out, even though he insisted not to but you were feeling bad about it and he couldn't win over your stubbornness.

"I told you not to walk me out." He trailed off, as he leaned his back against the car before placing the back of his hand on your forehead. "Your fever is gone but still, make sure to take medicine before sleeping."

You constantly nodded at his nagging tone before feeling his intent eyes causing you to frown. "What are you looking at?"

You." He blurted out but then laughed at your surprised face. "This is the first time, I'm seeing you in pajamas."

You cheeks heat up as you palmed your cheek feeling the warmth. "I think my fever is coming back."

Baekhyun hummed, nodding as he tilted his head leaning in. "Not like you're blushing right now."

You bit your lip slapping his arm making him chuckle. "Oh, wow, you've still got the strength."

"Of course!"

He smiled but then chuckled deeply before holding your wrist gently and eyed it curiously. "I really wonder, how this small hand can be this strong?"

You rolled your eyes. "Want a demo then?"

He smiled innocently shaking his head. "No, I don't want to ruin my handsome face."

You scoffed. "And my hands are not that small."

"Oh yeah?" He opened your hand before leaning his palm against yours and giggled. "Look, they are so small."

You looked away unconsciously pouting before feeling him interlocking his fingers with yours. "But just perfect for me."

You smiled shyly before he spun you around and pulled you close making your back lean against his chest. He moved your hair from your shoulder to the back causing his fingers brush against your neck sending chills down your spine and placed his chin on your shoulder.

"You're so small, I wish... I could just put you in my pocket and steal you away but your dad would probably kill me." He pouted and you laughed before playing with his hands as he pressed his lips on your cheek.

Sighing, he turned you around as he took your arms, wrapping around his waist with his arms circled around your torso as he pulled you closer. "Do you know how scared and worried I was, when you literally passed out in my arms?"

You stared at his concerned face with a guilty expression and sighed. "Were you really worried? I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been stubborn."

"Glad you know that." He smiled, playfully making you roll your eyes before he reached out, cupping your jaw slightly squishing your cheeks as your lips turned into a pout. "Do me a favor and take care of yourself, hm?"

You grabbed his both wrist, nodding as you whined attempting to let go but your breath hitched, when he kissed your lips suddenly leaving you surprised. Your eyes enlarged which you instantly closed in the moment giving in with your heart pounding loudly behind your chest and your cheeks flushed.

"I didn't wanted to say it like this but.." He trailed off smiling while scrunching his button nose cutely before kissing your forehead. "I think I really love you."

Your heart stopped for a moment as you stared in his sparkling eyes and wide smile, making you smile back joyfully. "Feeling is mutual."

He chuckled at your reply but it was worth it for now before he nodded pinching your nose and drove away.

You watched his car disappearing from your sight and you sighed smiling while remembering the moment just happened as your fingers went to your lips while a shy smile broke out on your lips as you hid your face in your palms.

Giggling to yourself, you turned around. "Ahh!"

There stood, your little brother, Daniel with his hands shoved in his hoodie pockets and a cheeky grin playing on his lips and you palmed your chest. "You scared me! What are you doing there?"

He wriggled his eyebrows, teasingly. "I saw it."

You blinked, clearing your throat as you stood straight. "Saw what?"

"That you and Baekhyunee Hyung were doing..," He trailed off puckering his lips and your jaw dropped as you gasped. "Don't you dare, Dan."

"Deal, if you give me half of your pocket money." He smiled and you scoffed. "As if."

"Then, I'm going to tell everyone inside." He stuck out his tongue before running inside with you chasing and yelling. "You better stop being I kill you!"

"Mom! Potato is on killing mood again!"

(15 May)

It's been three days to that day and you were all better now and currently were sitting on a bench while tying your skating shoes. Well, not you but your boyfriend helping you do it as he was kneeling down infront of you.

Boys suddenly wanted to go skating surprising you as yesterday they were busy studying and now this. Nevertheless, you agreed to go and were present with everyone.

"Do you know how to skate?" Baekhyun asked as he sat down beside you while tying his shoes and you nodded.

"But I don't." He pouted and you chuckled patting his back. "It's okay, I'll teach you."

Everyone walked towards the big ground where lots of people were enjoying and soon, Ria and Chanyeol began skating smoothly hand in hand leaving you smiling but someone was being grumpy.

You laughed looking at Baekhyun. "Why?"

"I want to do it like that." He replied pointing towards the couple infront of you and you sighed shaking your head before a thud sound caught your attention.

There they were, Sehun and Jongin on the ground grunting and laughing while clutching to Kyungsoo who shrugged them away making you both laugh.

Minseok and Jongdae went to them while skating and made them stand up before guiding them and Yixing behind them with his hand on both of their backs while Junmyeon was just giving them a done face as they kept falling.

"Let's go." You held Baekhyun's hand and guided him to the ground while going backwards and giggled at him struggling cutely.

"Don't let go of my hand." He tightened his grip on your hand and you smiled pulling him with you carefully. "Never."

And after few attempts of falling and trying, he finally balanced skating freely and it was obvious since he always have been a quick learner.

"Oh, you're doing great." You looked at him amazed and he grinned shyly.

"Well, I learned from the best." He raised his and now it was your turn to smile shyly.

"I have to tell you something." He suddenly said and you nodded indicating him to continue while walking backwards. "My family wants to meet you."

Your foot slipped and you gasped falling backwards leaving the latter shook and he instantly held you by your waist but it was too late as you both fell down with him on top of you.

You opened your eyes to see his face close to you making you widen your eyes and his hand under your head.

He leaned back a little to check you and giggled. "Are you okay?"

"Apart from my boyfriend telling me that his family wants to me and leaving me shook, I'm absolutely fine."

Your sarcastic answer left him laughing and you rolled you eyes before realizing you position and your cheeks heat up.

"Oh, it's blushing time." He poked your cheek and you realized that people were staring at you both.

"How many times I have told you to get a room?" You both turned to the voice which belonged to Jongin who was shaking his head and Baekhyun slapped his legs making him fall on the ground.

You both laughed and he glared at Baekhyun before you pushed him gently. "Aren't you gonna get up?"

"I don't really want to though."

You rolled your eyes. "Shut up and get up."

He chuckled getting up and helping you up on your feet and you both walked towards the resting area and stood against the railing where Ria was already standing.

"I saw what you did there." She wriggled her eyebrows teasingly and Baekhyun looked at her with exact expression while you rolled your eyes before sitting on a bench beside the railing.

"I'm gonna go compete with him and win." Baekhyun sat beside you pointing at Chanyeol who was currently making faces at him purposely provoking him which was working.

"I doubt it." Ria spoke admiring her boyfriend while you and Baekhyun shot a look at her.

"Are you challenging me?" Baekhyun put his chin on your shoulder looking over her and she shrugged smugly.

"Coffee bean, cheer for me." He looked at you and you nodded chuckling before he looked at Ria challenging. "I'm gonna win."

"Wait." You stopped him as he was about to stand up and bent down a little to tie his shoelace which was loosen.

"What are you-"

"Done." You looked up at him smiling and he sighed before flashing you his lovely smile.

"I could have done that."

You just shrugged grinning before shooed him away and he walked away not before leaving a peck on your cheek.

Your eyes enlarged and you extended your arm towards him to smack him but he ran away giggling before you looked back at your bestfriend staring at you with a smirk.

You raised your eyebrows. "What?"

"Nothing, just watching my bestie growing up. " She grinned mischievously nodding towards your side and you just rolled your eyes as she wasn't wrong too.

She giggled. "No but seriously, do you actually remember that couple of months ago, we were just sitting on the bleachers watching their game and not having a slightest idea of dating one of them?"

You giggled nodding. "Life really is unexpected."

"Right." She nodded. "But we haven't been spending time lately. Let's have a girls night tonight."

"Let's do it." You smiled before watching the boys pushing and pulling eachother jokingly making you two laugh at them. That's when Baekhyun was running behind Chanyeol and tackled him down with him falling down too.

"Careful!" You exclaimed but then shook your head seeing the Boys jumping over them playfully while laughing making you both girls smile.

Indeed life was unexpected yet beautiful.

Continuing the Imagines

Before we start, I'd like to tell you that English is not my first language, so I apologize for any mistakes

Red vs blue imagine

Dating Washington

Context: You are a mercenary sent to kill Caboose by some people the Reds and Blues helped defeating in one of their many adventures. For some reason your contractors are dumb and think Caboose is their leader. You are very skilled in hand to hand combat and have a persuasive hability.

1- Caboose manages to escape all of your killing attempts in the dumbest ways possible (like leaning to pick a flower right when you shoot him) until Wash notices you are around.

2- Sarge finds you by chance sneaking on Caboose. You beat the shit out of the Reds, but Carolina and Wash show up and you have a big fight. You take Wash down but Carolina manages to imobilize you. When she takes off your helmet Wash realizes he knows you from cadet school (of which you deserted). He actually had a crush on you back then.

3- You give them information about your clients in exchange of Carolina not killing you and offer yourself to go with them seek for revenge. Wash talks Carolina into trusting you. You two used to be close friends during school, he was kind of a nerd.

3- The Reds and Blues immediately simpathyze with you once you can adapt your personality into fitting theirs (you let Tucker hit on you--even if you are a boy, or nb, he does it--talk to Simmons about computers, tell Carolina how awesome she is ans how much you admire her, are gentle to Caboose,talk to Donut about house decoration, give Grif the snacks you brought to the canyon and kiss Sarge's ass. You even speak Spanish properly and get Lopez to like you). Wash notices what you are doing because you're like this since school, that has always been your talent. He gets really jealous because the soldiers actually start falling for you.

4- You pack for the trip. You guys are short on seats, so Tucker makes a joke about you going on his lap. Wash immediatly threatens to shoot him on the head. That is when you realize he still has a crush on you... and so do you on him.

5- You all go squished in the jeep, you start asking Wash about his new life, but he is reluctant about talking to you. You call him David and show him a picture of him, you and your gang in the cadet school, that you are used to keeping with you.

Your chests closer together because Grif and Tucker are fighting over space. He blushes and tries to make a joke about the situation, but it backfires. Not even Tucker finds it funny. Carlonina even mocks on him "thought you were better than this". You see he is still the guy who is mocked on in the gang, like he used to be in school.

6- During the first battle agains the minons from your ex-clients a soldier gets you unarmed and almost kills you. Wash saves you by violently hitting him with his rifle. You hug him in a "my hero" mockery and he goes tomato red about it. The Reds and Blues notice that he likes you and start picking on him "behind your back" (you actually listen to all of it and find it amusing)

7- You help the Reds and Blues defeat your ex-clients. But you and the Blues end up falling in a dead end ambush. Wash turns to you and says that, once you are in mortal danger he feels like he needs to say that he has always liked you. At this exact moment the Reds save you in some kind of Deus ex machina probably involving a jeep crash.

8-Now it is time to say goodbye, you need to pick another job. Wash gets desperate about it, but Carolina offers you some money to stay in the canyon and help them with -wathever she makes up to have you stay for the sake of making Wash happy-

9- While you are helping Simmons with a computer, you overhear Sarge telling someone to "man up", hear some fighting noises and Wash is pushed by the gang into the room. He is peper red. Grif drags Simmons out of the room, once he was taking too long to understand the situation.

Wash stutters all the time trying to explain the situation. He sees you giggling about it and gets even more ashamed. You take off your helmet and kiss him. From then on you get together.

Relationship

•Wash tries to keep a low profile at frist, but once the Reds and Blues always make jokes about it, he admits you two are dating and calls you girl/boy/nonbi friend.

•He treats you professionaly and calls you by your surname when around people, mainly Carolina(who finds it hilarious, you two exchange amused glares about it)

•When you are alone he calls you babe(all) and he loves saying your first name gently

•He never forgets dates such as your brithday or the day you met at school (which YOU don't remember)

•He gives you weapons as gifts.

•He is really jealous over how friends you are with the squad, but he knows it is not healthy and tries to keep it under control.

•Wash speaks his mind and sometimes it makes you fight. He is stubborn, but a third person always makes him see when he's wrong. He always cries when you make amendments.

•Wash cooks for you.

For Aces:

After your first kiss you lean on his chest and explain to him you are Ace. He is not familiar with the concept, so you need to explain it to him, but he immediatly understands. He holds your hand and says this is not important, he's always dreamed of being with you and that is what makes him happy.

Nsfw:

•Wash gets really nervous on your first time. After pressing you against a wall he lets his head fall on your shoulder and gets embarassed about it. He offers to go down on you, but you calm him down with many kisses in his forehead. Once you say it is ok, you two spend some time talking about many things. He gets in the mood again and you two have a eyes rowling nice sex.

•It eventually happens to him, but when you give it time the sex you have is the greatest.

•He prefers being a bottom, but he does not mind being a top too.

•Wash likes lazy cozy sex under blankets.

•He is not the cuddling type. He prefers just holding hands or looking in each others eye.

•He prefers sleeping each one in one bed, but in the same room. But if you really'd like to sleep with him, he won't mind

How it ends:

I see this as a case in which you can stay together until the very end. You even get to live adventures with the Reds and Blues
