Chapter 6: November 1st
Jaskier was sitting in his living room watching Hocus Pocus and thinking about how his friends back home were all headed out for a fun and debauched Halloween night without him, feeling a bit sorry for himself, when he got the text from Lambert.Â
Lambert: [Leaving in an hour. Get your costume on.]
Jaskier: [What?]
Lambert: [*an image of a Halloween show poster from a bar featuring local bands*]
Jaskier: [ đź I need more time!]
Lambert: [If youâre late weâll leave without u]
Jaskier squeaked and leapt to his feet, scampering to his closet to dig through his wardrobe.
An hour and five minutes later Jaskier dashed out his front door wearing as much neon and acid washed denim as he could pull out of the depths of his closet and dove into the back seat of Eskelâs truck.
âOh, Ken, love it,â Lambert grinned, leaning over the front seat to size him up. âThat bronzer is horrifying. Perfect. Needs a blond wig, though. We could just pour peroxide on your head and see what happens.âÂ
âItâs the best I could do on such short notice!â Jaskier sniffed, patting his stiffly gelled hair protectively and looking around the cab. Lambert next to him in a red jumpsuit that he recognized as a surprisingly accurate looking Deadpool costume, a pair of swords leaning between them that he sincerely hoped were plastic. Aiden sprawled over the back seat next to him in a Spiderman costume that looked equally expensive; they really went all out, it seemed. Eskel was in the driverâs seat wearing a flannel that looked suspiciously like something heâd wear any other day. But no Geralt.Â
âGeraltâs a punk,â Lambert said, reading his mind with a smirk and a raised eyebrow. âHeâs staying home to read back issues of Horse Girl Magazine or something.â
âAh,â Jaskier said, a flush rising in his cheeks at Lambertâs all-too-knowing expression. âNot one for bars, or live music, or what?â Lambert scoffed and rolled his eyes.Â
âGeralt doesnâtâŠcrowds just arenât really his scene,â Eskel said tactfully, swatting at Lambert to turn around and sit down.
Lambert righted himself just to pound on the dashboard and hoot, âLetâs go, fuckers! Yeahhhh!â
Aiden snorted, shaking his head fondly. Eskel sighed deeply and pulled the truck down the driveway. Jaskier had a feeling it was going to be a good night.

What a good episode. Maaaaaan
#I can't even start I'd be here forever#It did take me in fact like one hour total to watch it lmoa. It sooooo good!!! The animation is very good#(albeit it's awfully low on brightness at times. But such seems to be the sin of lot of recent media unfortunately)#but I'm not even going to dwell on that. The plot / storytelling is so good. Sooooo god. I adore this arc.#Love the symbolism. I've been saying this for almost two years now (is it really been that long ever since these episodes came out... ) but#I want to write an analysis on the op & ed so baddd. The emphasis on the twilight this episode!!#Like the sun was setting on the detective agency. I love love love the hd. They're so cool in this episode and they're so cool in general.#I ADORE Jouno. I don't feel particularly strongly for sue/giku yet their scenes are so cute and funny. I see why people ship them.#Even Tetchou I don't usually care much about is so !!!!! I love all the hd so much fr!!!!!!!!!!#I love love love Jouno. Like much like it is for Akutagawa I'm very weak for characters that aren't really good people.#But they're still trying to be a better person than they were. And oftentimes they end up doing a terrible job!!#But the fact alone that they're //trying// has me ougheueueueu. Here in this episode you can see Jounoâ#sliping very easily in his cruel / sadistic habits. But he is trying to be a person that cares for others! He made good actions in the past#and he will again in the future even though right now he's acting like this! Because improvement isn't linear! I love him tonsss#And DON'T get me started on the ada. Yosano's âWelcomeâ scene. I love women. I love women. Yosano please one chance#KENJI'S SCENE God I needed this. How could I forget the way this literllyyyyy rewinded my brain when I read the manga for the first time.#That scene is so deep and poignant and so so meaningful I. Oughhh#I am going to run out of tags am I not#Kyouka saving Atsushi!!!!!!! That scene is one of my all time favourites. It makes me soft to remember when the s4 trailer droppedâ#I was so overjoyed for that bit of them holding hands :') Rightfully so!!! It's so cute.#Her coming back to save Atsushi. The âdon't worryâ I didn't kill themâ direct towards Atsushiâ#that is so so Akutagawa and it sends me insane hhhhhhgggggggggg#Kunikida!!!!! His âI'm not leaving anyone behindâ!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm not precisely Kunikida's first fan but aaaaaahhh he makes me feelâ#so much for him in this scene!!!!! Mmmhhh one last note would be. It bugs me a little how the ada is defined terrorist by the militaryâ#forces starting this episode? I don't have space to elaborate properly but. An action to be considered terrorism must have clear politicalâ#orientation and goal. Violence alone isn't enought to be defined terrorism. It's an incorrect use of the word#Up to the next episode!!! Can't wait to see more Atsushi đ„°đ„°#random rambles#It's late now and probably most are asleep rn... Then I'll be queing my posts for tomorrow probably

As soon as Steve hears the phone ring, he sighs.
Robin is away visiting her family in Kentucky for the holidays, and the only other person to ever call would be...
"Dustin," Steve says, his free hand coming up to rest on his hip, "why are you calling?"
There's a pause on the other line before Dustin whines, "How do you always know when it's me."
"Because your irritating energy bleeds through the phone."
Another pause. "You got that from Robin, didn't you?"
Yes. He did. Sue him for wanting to be witty and taking a few notes from Robin. "What do you want?"
"Okay, so..." Oh boy. "I've been meaning to talk to Suzie for a while now, and we made plans not to talk on Christmas because she would be with her family all day, and I knew my mom wouldn't want me to be away for too long so-"
"The point, Dustin."
Dustin mumbles something that sounds suspiciously like multiple curse words before continuing, "The point is that I'm taking Cerebro to that hill, but I'm going to need a ride."
Steve frowns, walking toward the nearest window until the phone cord is fully stretched so he can pull a curtain open. He winces a bit at the bright light. "Dustin, it's freezing out, and the hill will be covered in snow."
"You would've done the same for Nancy!"
Steve's eyebrows raise. "Not the best approach if you want a ride, dude."
"I'm not trying to approach the whole you and Nancy thing. I'm trying to make a point," Dustin emphasizes a little too loudly into the phone. "You would do anything if you were in love! Even sit out in the snow for a few hours just so you can talk to the person you love."
"Have you ever heard of the phone?"
"Have you heard the number of siblings she has that would jump at the opportunity to listen in on our call? Plus, Cerebro is our thing."
Steve really wishes Dustin were in front of him, so he could see the way his cheeks are flushing during this exact moment. "You just like using your Cebro thing because it makes it feel like your love is forbidden."
"I do not!"
"Alright, Romeo," Steve says with a laugh, "I'll give you a ride. If you promise to only be there for an hour."
"Not including the time it takes to get there, set it up, and leave."
Steve sighs and knocks the phone against his head for a second before reluctantly agreeing, "Yes, but you better be bundled up so much that you're sweating out there. I don't want to hear you complain." He also secretly worries about the kid getting frostbite or something, but he'd never admit to it.
"Fine I'll see you in an hour?"
"Yeah, I'll see you then," Steve says as Dustin hangs up. "A thank you would've been nice..."
He really hopes he doesn't regret this.
-:-:-:-:-:-
When Dustin climbs in the car, he's bundled from head to toe but still manages to laugh at Steve who is wearing the same amount of layers as him. "Look in the mirror," Steve comments dryly before driving off.
The drive there isn't too long, and although Steve saw Dustin a few days ago - after Claudia insisted he spend Christmas with them instead of home alone - he's kind of glad to hang out with Dustin again. It's not often he gets a lot of one-on-one time with the kid anymore.
Which is why Steve is particularly bitchy when he pulls up to the familar area below the hill and find a familar van there.
"Dustin..."
"I didn't think you would agree to take me here and stay! So, I asked Eddie to give me a ride back this morning-"
"This morning?"
"And he said he was already going to be in the area and wanted to briefly meet Suzie and my Cerebro, so he's here now! And if you want, you can just drop me off. Think of it as a late Christmas gift."
Steve shakes his head. "And leave you in Munson's capable hands only to find out you two froze to death? No thanks." He gets out of the car with thoughts of a mourning Claudia Henderson on his mind.
"We wouldn't freeze to death!" Dustin practically shouts as he climbs out.
At that same moment, Eddie exits from his van, wearing his usual attire, only with maybe an extra added layer - a leather jacket.
Steve turns to Dustin, raising his eyebrows and gesturing toward Munson. Dustin sighs before going to the trunk to dig out all the different Cerebro parts.
Before Steve can join him, Eddie approaches him with a big smile. "Steve Harrington. Looking awfully toasty."
Steve rolls his eyes in response before openning his car door and reaching toward the back, grabbing the spare pair of gloves and a hat that he keeps whenever Robin forgets the extra layers - which is often. He hands them to Eddie without a word then helps Dustin grab his things before heading to their snow covered destination.
Eddie only lasts a few minutes up the hill before he manages to push into Steve's space while Dustin hurries ahead of them. "So, you look happy to see me."
"Just peachy, Munson."
Eddie snorts. "I'm guessing Dustin didn't tell you I would be tagging along when you got here?"
"And I'm guessing Dustin didn't tell you I was planning on staying."
"Actually," Eddie says, nudging Steve's shoulder, "I told him you would jump at the opportunity to hang out with him, and there was no way you would drop him off to freeze to death."
Steve narrows his eyes as he looks at Eddie.
Eddie shifts things around in his arms to grab his shirt and jacket and lift them up enough to show off some of his scarred skin. "Our matching battle scars will forever bound us, Steve. I wonder if the bats gave us telepathic abilities," he says, way too cheery for Steve's liking.
"If it did, then I would teleport up to the top of the hill right now."
"Telepathic means the ability to read each other's minds. The word you're thinking of is 'teleportation.'" Eddie corrects him without judgement - something Steve's always found surprising.
"Oh. Then guess what I'm thinking about right now."
Eddie hums before leaning in to mumble in his ear. "You're thinking about getting a piece of this."
Steve laughs and shoves him away. He's glad it's cold out so he blame his blush on the cold. For some reason, he's still not entirely immune to Eddie's flirting. "Definitely not what I was thinking about."
"You are now," Eddie teases.
Steve swallows heavily, pressing down those thoughts and many... many.... images. "I think you're confusing my thoughts for your own thoughts."
"Tell me about it," Eddie sighs dramatically.
Steve is relieved when he sees they've reached the top of the hill. He's even more relieved when Dustin doesn't ask for his help to put Cerebro together, but Eddie is all too happy to help while calling Dustin a genius - in various annoying, dramatic ways.
It's not long before Dustin is awaiting Suzie's response while Eddie bounces on his feet. Steve's not sure if it's from excitement or being cold - probably both.
"Dusty bun?"
Dustin's face lights up in a way that is entirely too endearing for Steve's heart to handle. The jedi has learned the art of love from the master - or something like that. "Suzie poo! I'm here with Steve and Eddie for the next few moments. Eddie wants to say hello."
Steve frowns and raises his voice, "I want to say hello, too! Eddie just wants to be dramatic about it."
"Because I haven't had the pleasure of meeting the lady," Eddie argues before turning up the charm. "Suzie, it's a pleasure. I'm sure you've heard nothing but wonderful things about me just like I've heard nothing but wonderful things about you. Unlike Steve over here who you've probably never heard a good thing about."
"Hi, Eddie, it's nice to meet you," Suzie replies, giggling. "And hi Steve!"
"Hey, Suze. Don't let Eddie win you over with his charm just yet. It's bad for his ego."
"You think I'm charming?" Eddie asks, batting his eyelashes.
Steve makes a see? gesture before realizing Suzie can't see him.
"Alright," Dustin says, "Now they're going to leave us alone for the next hour."
"Hour? It's already been at least five minutes," Steve complains.
Eddie grabs him by the shoulders and steers him away. "Don't worry, Suzie! I'll make sure you get the fulll hour!"
Steve lets Eddie guide him a little down the hill, ignoring when Suzie asks, "Do they always bicker like an old married couple?"
When they get a comfortable distance away, where they're out of earshot but Steve can still see Dustin to make sure he doesn't freeze to death, Steve sits on the ground. He glances up after he gets as comfortable as he can get on the side of a hill, only to find Eddie frowning down at him.
"What?" Steve asks.
Eddie shrugs. "Doesn't seem fair that you get to sit on the ground, and I can't."
Steve's eyes scan over Eddie's body. "Not my fault that you didn't wear a long enough jacket to cover your ass when you sit."
"Not my fault that I wasn't born into a wealthy family that can afford those jackets."
Steve's stomach flips, but he knows Eddie isn't looking for an apology. "Why don't you sit in your van then?"
"Wouldn't want to miss my chance to hang out alone with Steve Harrington," Eddie says with a wink.
Steve nearly scoffs and gives him a snarky reply, but his thoughts go out the window when he notices Eddie's teeth chattering. "Shit," he mutters.
"What was that?"
Steve groans and stands up before unzipping his large jacket.
"Am I in a dream?" Eddie jokes, but his voice shakes a bit.
"You're about to be living one," Steve says dryly as he stands in front of Eddie and opens his coat. Eddie just stares at him. Steve huffs out a breath that becomes visible in the cold air between them. "Come here."
"What?"
Steve raises his eyebrows at Eddie before tugging at his coat. But Eddie continues to stare at him with wide wandering eyes. "I'm not letting you freeze to death up here, so come here before I tell Dustin to pack it up because you're cold."
Eddie crosses his arms a little tighter. "I'm f-fine." A shiver visibly runs through Eddie's body.
Steve rolls his eyes for what feels like the hundreth time this day and wraps Eddie in his jacket before he can protest.
He's stiff for a moment, then Eddie relaxes enough to wrap his arms around Steve who is able to close the jacket around them. They linger in each other's arms long enough that Eddie stops shivering and Steve wonders how much time Dustin has left with Suzie.
"Better?" Steve asks to break the silence.
He feels Eddie nod over his shoulder before he pulls back enough to look him in the eye, nose brushing against Steve's as he whispers, "I know something we could do to keep ourselves warm."
Steve's heart beats a little faster in his chest.
Eddie laughs and tucks his head into Steve neck, his lips far away enough from Steve's that it's no longer the only thing on Steve's mind. With the new brain space, he can feel Eddie drum a nervous rhythm onto his back and bounce a little on his face. He wonders if maybe Eddie was onto the whole scars making them read each other's minds thing because he swears he knows the first part of what Eddie's about to say before he says it.
"Sorry if that was too much. No guy has ever let me flirt at them the way you do."
Steve gets stuck on flirt at and, "No guy?"
Eddie lets out a short humorless laugh. "No guy."
And for some reason, Steve has to ask, "Has any guy let you kiss them before?"
Eddie pulls back to look at him with a frown tugging at the corners of his lips. "What are you getting at, Steve?"
Steve glances at Eddie's lips, slightly chapped but they've never looked more inviting. Maybe it's time to listen to Robin's knowing looks whenever Eddie is around and Steve finds himself simultaneously drawn to him while also wanting to run to the bathroom with Robin to have another floor talk. "What if one guy let you kiss them?"
"Steve..." Eddie whispers, his eyes flicking over his shoulder.
Steve turns to find Dustin, facing away from them. Still he loosens his hold on Eddie and says, "Wrap your arms around my neck instead of my back."
Eddie does as he's told, and Steve gives him no warning before saying, "Hopefully this goes alright." Then, he slightly picks up Eddie before falling back, letting the snow break their fall as he lays back with Eddie on top of him.
"That went better than I thought it would," Steve says with a big smile then asks, "Can Dustin see us?"
Eddie glances up and shakes his head.
"Perfect," Steve says, heart practically beating out of his chest when Eddie looks down at him. When he doesn't make a move, Steve can't help but tease, "So you really are all bark, no bite."
"Shut up, Harrington," Eddie says before finally kissing him.
For only a moment, Steve nearly laughs at the fact that Eddie Munson told him to shut up. But then his brain goes nearly haywire yet completely silent when Eddie's lips meet his in what he thinks might be the single most transformative kiss of his life.
His arms tighten around Eddie's back, and Eddie's hands move to cup the back of his head as they deepen the kiss. Somehow, laying in snow, Steve has never felt warmer.
They eventually break the first kiss reluctantly, both of them going back to steal more as they catch their breath, which turns into laughter and giggles between more kisses. Then, Eddie breaks away long enough to say, "You know, the van is seeming like a really great option at the moment."
"And Dustin's a smart kid. He knows how to not freeze to death," Steve says, kissing Eddie every chance he gets.
"You're right. No need to stay here in the snow," Eddie replies.
"Right."
Neither of them make a move to get up, but they both move to kiss again.
It's only a little while later before they hear Dustin yell out, "Guys?" And that's when they finally break away.
Eddie pops up first and calls out, "Yeah?"
"Let's pack up! It's been over an hour! Come on!"
Steve pulls Eddie back down into the snow one more time for a kiss before stomping up the hill. "Alright, alright. We thought you'd be happier that we gave you more time and that we both waited for you."
"it's cold," Dustin complains.
Steve nods, but he still feels warm.
Eddie joins a few moments later, stealing glances at Steve before asking Dustin what they're doing next.
"I'm thinking we change out of our snow clothes and get food somewhere maybe..." Dustin trails off and frowns at Eddie. "Why are you covered in snow?"
"We were making a snow angel?" Eddie hurriedly says.
Steve tries not to laugh.
"One?" Dustin asks.
Eddie nods. "You'll see it on the way down."
Sure enough, on the way down, they all see one horribly disfigured snow angel.
While Steve laughs and Eddie smiles proudly, Dustin shakes his head and mutters something like more curses to himself. In a volume that's able to be picked up by the other boys, he asks, "Eddie, you'll drop me off at my house, and we'll meet back up in an hour at my house?"
"Hour and a half," Steve says. When Dustin opens his mouth to complain, Steve explains, "I need to take a shower so I don't get pnemonia. Plus, I'm not letting my hair freeze on my way to your house."
"Fine," Dustin sighs. "See you then."
"See you then," Eddie echoes to Steve, winking at him once.
Soon after Steve gets home, he hears a knock on the front door, and when it's Eddie on the other side, Steve pulls him in and says, "Maybe you were right about the telek- tele-"
"Telekentic abilities?"
Steve nods as he closes the door behind Eddie and traps him against it. "I definitely know what you're thinking about now."
Eddie cocks his head to the side and wraps his arms around Steve's neck. "Yeah? What am I thinking about?"
"Kissing me again," Steve says, leaning in.
"Actually," Eddie says turning his head away, "I was thinking about a lemon."
"Crazy. I happen to have lemon scented body wash," Steve comments as he grabs Eddie's hands and tugs him up the stairs.
They're both a little late to Dustin's house. And maybe their hair freezes a bit.
But Dustin was right. There's a lot of things Steve would do for love.

a small request
max verstappen x reader | 2k
even world champions deserve love letters. after missing the mexico gp, you're determined to see max have a good weekend in brazil. maybe all it takes is a handwritten note.
cw: fem!reader, being in love, softness, a track-side kiss, love letters. and google translate, sorry to any dutch speakers.
a/n: was this inspired by that video from austin? yeah, it was! sue me! also, written/posted before the gp, so. no race details <3 xx
__
You miss race weekend in Mexico. It happens. You can't be there every weekend, much as you'd like to be. You're even more peeved about it after, considering you quite like Carlos and wish you had seen him earn what very well might be his last win with Ferrari. But you're mostly upset because Max, though he won't say so, could probably have used your support.
Years of experience have him calm, cool, and collected despite the team troubles. Flippant, some headlines say. Mad Max, others. But you know he's probably just tired. Tired of the media, of the FIA, of the churning conflict between him and Lando -- something you all knew was coming someday, but maybe not so suddenly. The longest season ever continues to drag and drag and drag.
"Twenty seconds was...Christ, Max," you say. You know what happened, of course. You watched what you could, saw the sharp moves around the corner and heard the radios. It never gets easier, watching him take risks like that. Usually, everyone else backs off, but McLaren can see victory on the horizon and won't let it go. You can't blame them, either of them, you just wish it was all a bit less tense.
"I know," he says, voice raspy over the connection. "I -- well, you know how I feel about it. Don't want to say anything in case the FIA is tapping my phone."
You laugh into your hand so you don't disturb the other people in the airline lounge, not entirely used to places like this, still. Max has told you over and over that it's absurd for you to spend your own money when you're coming to see him all over the world. When you told him you moved things around so you could come to Brazil, he booked you the nicest ticket, per usual.
"Oh, ha, ha," you say. "Don't give them any ideas, Mr. Community Service." You sigh. "Do you need anything? Be honest."
"Aren't you at the airport already? Your flight should be leaving in --" A pause, like he's checking his watch -- "forty minutes."
You glance up at the departures screen. He's right, but you don't give it to him so easily. "Know my schedule, do you?"
"Well, I booked your ticket, so I should think so."
"Your assistant booked it, you mean."
He hums and you picture him in his hotel room, maybe at the window, looking over the city. "I know your flight information. Don't be silly."
"I mean it, Max," you say again. "Is there anything I can do to make the weekend better?" It's a bit of a useless question and you expect him to answer with a snarky get me a new car or apply for the position of steward.
But he doesn't. He clears his throat.
"I'm just glad you're coming," he says, softly. "I've missed you."
You never doubt how Max feels about you, but he must be pretty tired to admit it like this. He's all about actions, this man. Making sure you have what you need when you're at the track, arranging your travel, remembering your schedule. He shows you how much you matter, and that's more than enough. He never wants to make you feel bad for having a life beyond being his girlfriend. And this doesn't, not really. It just makes you ache, fills your chest with the hopeless affection you've felt for him for so long.
"I've missed you, too," you reply. "But I'd like to be useful."
"Oh, I can think of a few things, then," Max says, all of a sudden all cheek. Such a boy, sometimes. A boy in love.
You can't help but laugh, face hot. "Hush, you!"
He huffs. A few beats of silence, the comfortable, well-worn kind. Sometimes, when he's halfway across the world and up late on the sim, he'll call you just to hear you breathe.
"Max?"
"I -- do you remember what you did for my birthday?"
He'd wanted something small, quiet. There was a lot of work to be done with the team but three weekends off meant you had a little time to yourselves. A few days hardly leaving his place, a dinner with some of the guys, a cake you made yourself, hand-delivered in bed. Gifts for a very wealthy man are difficult, especially since Max doesn't seem to want much.
"Oh, the pillow with my face on it?"
Max laughs. The lounge loudspeaker announces that your flight is going to board soon, so you gather your things but keep your phone wedged next to your ear.
"No, the other thing," he says. He clears his throat and summons some of that World Champion courage. "The letter."
You'd written him a fairly long love letter, thinking it would be a nice thing to carry to the races you couldn't be at this fall. It was tempting to be embarrassed about it when you gave it to him the morning of his birthday, but his cheeks had gone pink and he'd buried his face in your neck.
"Oh, that," you say. The airport is busier outside the lounge and you push your case in the direction of your gate weaving between. people.
"You could write me another, maybe."
Max is direct. He is honest, at work and at home, but this surprises you a little.
"You do know I'm about to get on a plane to see you, right?"
He huffs, and you imagine his cheeks pink, eyes bright. "You asked!"
"I'll write you another love letter, Max Verstappen," you assure him. "I'll write you a hundred."
"One is a fine start," he says firmly. "You should be boarding soon, and I've got to go to the press conference. Text me when you've landed?"
"Of course," you reply, eyes rolling though he can't see. "I'll see you soon, okay? Love you."
"Love you, liefje."
On the plane, you tear out some pages from your journal. You'd prefer to have some nice stationery like what you wrote on for his birthday, but maybe this is more romantic, more real. Making do with that you've got because he asked.
In the last one, you told him your memories of when you first met. How your stomach swooped when you made him laugh, how his blue eyes wouldn't leave your dreams. In this one you tell him about when you first realized you loved him. How absurdly early you were sure, how badly you wanted to tell him for weeks. The way you remember every second of when you blurted it out -- his face, his smile. His voice in your ear, telling you over and over, geliefde, ik houd van je, zo veel. I love you, so much.
"You're working hard on that," someone says. You look up at your seatmate, a woman a few decades older than you with a heavy accent.
You feel a little like you've been caught doing something illicit, but you just smile at her. "For my boyfriend," you tell her. "A love letter."
She flattens her palm over heart and sighs. "How lovely," she coos. "I hope he takes care of you, too."
We take care of each other, you want to say. You could tell her about how he sends you postcards from every country he goes to after you told him you like to put them on your fridge. You could tell her how sometimes you text him during his streams to make him laugh on camera. How he remembers your favorites, how he saves you his special team gear, how he sends you flowers all the time. How he likes to sit on the couch, your toes under his thigh, fingers around your ankle. How you've been learning Dutch and how he patiently corrects your pronunciation. You could go on and on and on.
"He does," you say instead.
__
The plane lands safely in Brazil, but the pilot tells you that there is no open gate and that you'll be sitting for a while. You text Max.
stuck on tarmac, will be later than expected! :(
He must be in media responsibilities still because he doesn't reply until you finally get off the plane.
go relax at the hotel. i'll see you for dinner!
You find your ride easy enough and take a deep breath. The letter you wrote on the plane feels heavy in your pocket, and you just want to see Max. To be near him again. To give him this small thing he asked for.
"Excuse me," you say to the driver. "Do you think we could go to the track, instead?"
You text Max's assistant to say you're headed there, hoping it's not too much of an inconvenience. You're told he's almost done, maybe an hour left, and when you arrive you're led to his driver rooms. His shit is everywhere, per usual. Max is quite neat except in here -- Carmen once told you that George is the same. Clothes strewn about, his race boots unlaced and left in the way, warm-up equipment in a pile. On the table are a few of his things -- his wallet, a notebook, some papers.
Wait a second. One of those papers looks...familiar. It's been folded in three, the envelope it came in nowhere to be seen. His name is scrawled on the blank side in your hand and when you tug it from the pile you can see that it's creased, the edges a little more worn than when you gave it to him a few months ago. Max Verstappen, three-time World Champion, actually carries around the love letter you wrote him. Brings it to the track. It's darling. You love him so much. You pull the new one from your pocket and set them side-by-side on the table where he'll find them.
You ask to be taken to the pit wall, please, so you can see whatever the drivers are doing on track. Some dedication, you're told. The timing ends up being perfect and you get there just as they're finishing. You lean on a gap in the barrier where, on Sunday, crew members will be holding timing signs as the drivers zip around the hot pavement. The crowd in the stands is loud, as always, and maybe you imagine it but it seems to get a little louder when you look out.
The guys are talking amongst themselves and a few of them wave at you. You spot Max as he turns away from Charles and you can't help but grin. His eyes meet yours under his cap and his entire face chances, softens, and he breaks into a jog. You lean out over the concrete ledge and meet him in a kiss that's more two smiles pressed together than anything else.
"This is a surprise," he says when he pulls away. Eyes sparkling, he shows no signs of rejoining the other drivers as they head to whatever their next thing is. Photos, probably.
"I missed you," you tell him. "I've left you something in your room."
"Oh?" He straightens the lanyard of your credentials with careful fingers.
You reach for him, palm on his cheek. His stubble tickles and he leans into it ever so slightly. It doesn't feel like there are thousands of eyes on you, not even a little.
"Yeah," you say. "As promised." Someone calls his name. "Go on, then. I'll be waiting."
He kisses you again, a quick brush of his lips on the corner of your mouth.
Later, you'll wake from your nap in the hotel room to those same kisses on your cheeks, your forehead. Max will gather you in his arms and tell you all the moments he almost told you he loved you, how he could hardly believe when you said it first. You'll tease him for how many times he's read that first letter and he'll cheekily say that's why he needs more. And you will write him more, you'll write him as many as he wants. As many as you can, for the rest of your lives.
But now, in front of thousands of screaming fans, he smiles at only you, boyish and pleased.

brightest in the dark
Crosshair x F!Reader
word count: 9.2k
description: when you get caught up in an inescapable cave-in, crosshair finds that some things are easier to confess when it feels like the end of the road
warnings/tags: angst for sure but not all the way through, crosshair is an angsty boy in a lot of ways, forced proximity, frenemies (?) to lovers â reader and cross have a strained relationship because of the aforementioned angstiness of the boy, perceived unrequited love, injury detail, blood & needles, jealous (and a bit insecure) crosshair, implied there might be something between hunter & reader (spoiler: there isn't), grumpy/sunshine kinda, reader is a medic (how original), reader is described as being a similar size to crosshair, some suggestive dialogue but nothing nsfw
a/n: I will make every clone yearn if itâs the last thing I do. sue me. also If anyone knows where I took the title from we can be best friends forever btw. and shoutout to @lonewolflupe for the âsky rodeoâ <3
masterlist | join my taglist | read on ao3
âHave you got your water bottle?â
Crosshair rolled his eyes, kicking off the side of the Marauder as you descended the shipâs stairs with an irritating pep in your step.
âMmâ he confirmed, taking a toothpick from his belt, already pre-empting a grinding jaw.
âMedkit?â you asked, stopping just next to him to secure the top of your knapsack.
Crosshair didnât reply, he just gave you a sidelong glance of irritation, toothpick clenched between his teeth. You looked over to him, most likely upon realising he wasnât going to answer, and deflated slightly at his expression.
âCrosshair, have you got your medkit?â you asked more pointedly, an edge of exasperation that made the edges of his lips quirk up marginally.
âYes, I haveâ he mumbled out, turning away from you and catching Hunterâs glare as he walked in his direction.
Crosshair had to fight the urge to roll his eyes again, he already knew what he was going to say.
âSheâs only trying to helpâ Hunter scolded him, âif I hear that you've given her a hard timeââ
âAlright, I get itâ Crosshair snapped, his gaze as sharp as his tongue.
Hunter gave him an unimpressed look, eyebrows raised and a sigh escaping his lips, âalright, try not to take too long, report back as soon as you've got a visualâ
Crosshair didn't try to suppress his eye roll this time, âthis isnât my first sky rodeo, Hunterâ
âI know, butââ
âYou ready, Cross?â
Crosshair's head twinged to the side slightly as his eyes fluttered closed, his jaw grinding and teeth clamped together at the nickname. He'd pretend it was because he hated it, as he always did.
He didn't reply, instead stalking away from the two of you and off in the direction of your mission objective. He could hear the way your feet scurried to catch up with his long strides and huffed, gripping his helmet tightly at his side. He felt your eyes on him, running them over his armour, and it took everything within him to keep from meeting your gaze.
âHow did you sleep last night?â you asked, making his jaw tick noticeably.
He knew you had recognised his poor sleeping habits of late, but he wasn't really in the mood to speak about it, especially as it had something to do with the fact that you'd started sleeping in Hunter's bunk. He wasn't sure why, but that was somehow even more torturous than knowing.
âFineâ he replied coldly, keeping his eyes ahead as the two of you followed the trail that lead down into the valley below.
You sighed, âCrossâŠâ
âDon't call me thatâ he grumbled, no real bite behind the demand, âand I said fine, so drop itâ
He saw your shoulders slump out of the corner of his eye and shook his head, disappointed in himself once again.
Truth be told, Crosshair was painfully enamoured by you. Smitten was a more appropriate description really. He certainly felt as if he had been smited by some cruel deity who deemed that his life was worth being made difficult. He bore it like an open wound that he tried to ignore, a mess that wasn't given the proper amount of care and attention, and bled into the way he treated you.
Youâd always been too kind to Crosshair, far kinder than he deserved. As much as it was your job as a medic, you always took care of him in the same way as the others, even though they always treated you with a level of respect that he didn't. He wished everyday that he could take it all back, go back to the beginning and start over, let you know how much he appreciated you and your efforts, how his feelings had grown for you to the point where his chest ached every time your smile was directed at someone who wasn't him.
It made little sense, he knew that. He acted as if he didn't care whether you lived or died, but it was the fact that you didn't seem to care that made him continue to act that way. So he couldn't take it back after all, and maybe he wouldn't want to anyway, because how else could he get close to you? He knew that made little sense too, but very few things were clear to him when it came to you.
In any case, he'd go on suffering in silence, a suffering of his own making that he cursed himself everyday for.
You did have a friendship, of sorts. He wouldn't call it that, and would certainly never admit it, but you were insistent in trying to get him talking. The way it would play out often went along the lines of him teasing you, making fun of you, to see how far he could push you as a juvenile way of coping with the magnitude of his affections. It was the closest thing to affection he would allow himself. You often rebutted his teasing remarks with ones of your own, and as much as he appreciated you matching his attitude, he mostly wished that you wouldn't allow him to get away with it, that you would give him a reason to show how he truly felt about you.
Safe to say the opportunity hadn't arisen, and he wasn't crossing his fingers either.
This mission's objective was simple; go and scout ahead, and comm the others when it was safe for them to move out. Since your joining the group eight months ago, Crosshair had often been lumbered with you in situations such as this. As the sniper, he wasn't made for nor enjoyed close combat fighting, and as the medic with little combat training, it suited you to hang back until you were needed.
Thankfully, the terrain that you were traversing this time was straightforward, a narrow valley that brought you right up to a ridge that overlooked a separatist outpost. Although the area was simple to cut across, it only made the silence that stretched between you even more tense, with no buffer to distract either of you.
You kicked up dust into the air with the way you were dragging your feet, and Crosshair was half of the mind to replace his backpack with you just so he wouldn't have to hear the grating noise. Holding a datapad in hand, you tapped the screen, tracking the direction that the two of you were heading in.
âTwo more klicksâ you mumbled, cutting through the tension with all the effectiveness of a butter knife.
Crosshair grunted in reply, casting his eyes across the top of the valley as the two of you descended to the very bottom. His hand shot out, slamming against your abdomen and stopping you in your place.
âWhat is it?â you asked, your voice low as you saw the way his gaze skimmed the top of the valley.
Crosshair slowly reached back and took his firepuncher from his backpack, âwe're being watchedâ
The moment the first blaster bolt flew, Crosshair grabbed your waist and pushed you behind him, bringing his blaster into position and picking off the sniper droids he could see. Each bolt found its mark, piercing the droids between their eyes.
âFind us some coverâ he ordered as he shoved his helmet over his head, looking for incoming droids. He turned back the way you had come, blaster raised as he walked backwards. It was silent for a moment, the only thing he could hear being the gentle padding of your feet against the ground behind him.
âCrosshair, in hereâ he heard you call from not far away, and he gave one last look around the edge of the valley before turning and making his way towards your voice.
There was a small cavern at the base of the cliff, a hideaway cut from the rock, and it looked to have been used for shelter before. A small pile of logs indicated a fire, with stones outlining a pit of ashes, only just visible with the way the afternoon light shone in through the opening of the cave.
Crosshair squared himself with the wall of the cave to look outside, his back pressed against it as he followed the line of the cliff through his scope. He felt your presence next to him, your chin knocking against his spaulder as you peered over his shoulder. Your breath wafted over the sliver of skin between the top of his blacks and his helmet, and his breath hitched as the heat of it made his skin prickle.
âStayâ he muttered, stepping forwards to put some distance between you, and to make sure that it was safe to move again. He stepped out into the valley once more, his rifle raised and ready should he meet more adversaries.
It was eerily quiet, the whistling of the wind the most audible sound, carrying no others on it. Crosshair stalked around the base of the valley, making sure that no other droids were in the vicinity, and called for you to join him when he was sure.
âOne momentâ you muttered, âI think there's a stone in my bootâ
Crosshair rolled his eyes, lifting his weapon to look through the scope and make extra sure that it was safe. He wandered around as he waited, his own boots softly crumbling the dirt beneath them, then came to a stop next to you after a few moments, watching as you buckled up your boot again.
You looked up at him and a small smile crossed your lips, but almost instantly dropped, as if you'd done something wrong, âlet's goâ
Crosshair felt his heart fall from his chest at the subtle action. The fact that you wouldn't even allow yourself to smile at him left a gaping hole through the middle of him, and he felt completely and utterly ashamed. He knew it was his own fault, he'd blame himself even if it wasn't, but he wasn't prepared for how the simple motion would bring his mettle to its knees.
As he was caught up in staring at you with an inscrutible expression, one that didn't give away even one ounce of the anguish he felt, a blast flew straight past him, and narrowly missed your arm. He pushed you back inside the cave on instinct, and whipped around to deal with the incoming attack, but upon seeing the increased amount of firepower now gunning for the two of you, he quickly followed you inside, picking off the droids towards the front of the formation as he walked backwards.
As the droids continued firing down at you, a blast lodged itself in the ledge above the opening to the cave. When the rocks there crumbled away, they seemed to focus all their fire above you. Crosshair didn't think about the immediate implications of it, he just kept knocking down what droids he could, but when you called out his name and grabbed his arm to pull him backwards, he understood.
The rocks came down almost in slow motion, but quick enough that the pair of you couldn't have made it out in time. Crosshair fell backwards as you tugged on his arm, stumbling and trying to find his footing before he was taken to the ground. In the scramble to get away, a rock snagged his shoulder, just between his cuirass and spaulder, and he released a deep grunt as it brought him to his knees with the impact.
For a moment it was quiet again, only the heavy sound of breathing being heard in the darkness of the cave. Crosshair kept his head down, trying to keep his breath even and cut out the pain from his wound, though it was quickly becoming apparent to him that his shoulder was not in any sort of good condition. He could feel blood tricking down his side, soaking through his blacks, and he felt himself becoming feint, his mind fuzzy and unfocused.
A light flicked on, shining directly at him, and he groaned again, the hand of his uninjured arm lifting to cover his eyes.
âCrosshairâ your voice was a hoarse whisper, as if it had got caught in your throat, and it wasn't hard to guess why.
He slumped forwards slightly, his back hunching as he dug his knees further into the ground to distract from the pain.
âI knowâ he said quietly, not even having looked at the damage yet. He was far too concentrated on trying to ignore it.
The light flicked off with the click of a button, and he heard you shuffling around, your knapsack hitting the ground with a thud that told him you were moving quickly, your actions rushed. Soon after, a warmer light started growing, and Crosshair realised you had taken out a lamp, and were now dragging it over to him with a medkit in hand.
He looked up, the softer light not invading his vision in such a piercing way, and he could now see the worry in your eyes. His gut twisted, the uncomfortable feeling of guilt spreading through his body and only making his wound ache more. You knelt in front of him, ripping off his helmet before your hand gripped his spaulder and pulled it aside to get a proper look at the injury. The both of you sucked a breath through your teeth, Crosshair in pain and you no doubt because of how bad the damage was.
You got to work quickly, silently, and unclipped the top half of his armour to get better access. Crosshair was glad that you weren't talking, he was already embarassed enough, feeling infantile, crumpled to his knees and completely weak in front of you. He was powerless to do anything else, his head pounding and vision hazy as blood gushed from his wound.
âHold this hereâ you said firmly, pushing a cloth into the wound and bringing him back to the present harshly, another pained noise leaving him.
He followed your instruction without much thought, and when he took the fabric from you to hold in place, he felt the way your hand was shaking. His eyes snapped up to yours, and the distress he saw written into your expression was enough to shock him back into full consciousness.
Crosshair watched your movements carefully, his keen eyes noticing every twitch and shiver as you fumbled with the syringe. He wanted to comfort you in any way he could, but truthfully, he didn't know how. It wasn't something he'd ever sought to do, and now faced with the challenge, he didn't know what would be the right thing to say.
âIt's just a scratchâ he mumbled, a small chuckle passing his lips in an attempt to at least alleviate some of the tension.
âA scratch?â you huffed, your voice disbelieving as you shot him a unimpressed look, âthis isn't funny, Crosshairâ
âHeyââ
âIf I hadn't pulled you away you'd still be there. You'd be deââ
Crosshair called your name sternly, and you stopped your fiddling with the syringe to look up at him, âit's going to be fine, do you hear me?â
His voice was grave, and while he knew it wasn't necessarily a comforting tone, it was the best thing he could muster up with the panic steadily growing within him. Your eyes flicked between his, your shoulders relaxing slightly after a few seconds.
âOkayâ you breathed out deeply, pressing your hand over his to hold the cloth tighter to the wound, âlook to your rightâ
Crosshair could feel his pulse throbbing all over his body, the blood rushing through him and towards his wound, towards the hand that covered his and brought about such a reaction. Your skin was warm through the fabric of his glove, and he'd been so distracted by the touch that he barely registered when you had administered the pain relief injection into his neck.
You took your hand from his as you placed down the syringe, and then found the hem of his blacks, your fingers skimming along the edge, âI need to take this off, is that okay?â
âIt's fineâ Crosshair replied, taking the cloth away from his wound to allow you to continue.
You nodded once, and ran your palms across the skin of his abdomen as you peeled the body glove from him. Crosshair couldn't help the way his body shivered, the way his jaw clenched at the feel of your hands on his skin. His eyes locked with yours as you pulled the top up, warm knuckles brushing over him, and he let out a shuddering breath, trying to relax his mind. He groaned in pain, eyes screwing shut when he lifted his arm to help you take the shirt from his injured shoulder.
âI know, I knowâ you spoke soothingly, your voice measured and calm as you discarded the shirt, âIâm sorryâ
âDonât apologiseâ Crosshair hissed out, the pressure to his wound returning as you grabbed his hand once more and brought the cloth to his shoulder.
âAlright, here's what's going to happen nowâ you started, your hand still covering his as you held his attention, âI'm going to take this away and clean the wound first. It's going to hurt a lot, but it'll be over before you know it. Then I'm going to need to stitch it upâ
âIt's that bad huh?â Crosshair huffed a laugh, still not keen to look down at the wound, but he heard how strained his voice sounded in saying it.
âIt's going to be fineâ you assured him, and your fingers closed around his, gripping his hand tightly, âit'll only take a few minutes, and then it's just a matter of putting a bacta patch over itâ
He breathed out deeply, his skin alight where yours was touching it, trying to remain as calm as possible.
âAlright, do itâ he spoke, forcing his eyes away.
You gave his hand one last squeeze as you brought it away, and despite how it made his heart flutter, it wasn't enough to fight the stinging pain of the antiseptic spray.
As you cleaned out the gash, wiping away drying blood and dirt, you responded to Crosshairs groans and whimpers of pain with comforting words, telling him that it was almost over, and as much as he appreciated it, he only felt more embarrassed. In the lull between cleaning and stitches, he tried to take steadying breaths, but the antiseptic was still stinging at the open wound.
âAre you ready?â you asked quietly, and his eyes found yours again at the softness of your voice.
You held the curved needle in your hand, ready for whenever he said the word, and between his deep breaths and pounding head, he couldn't help but just sit and admire you for a moment too long.
âDo you want something to hold on to?â
âWhat?â he frowned.
âTo grip, for the pain? or⊠something to bite down on?â you suggested.
âNo, noâ he dismissed, shaking his head.
âOkay, I'm going to start nowâ you informed him, and he nodded quickly.
As soon as the needle pierced his skin, Crosshair's hands shot out and gripped the fabric of your shirt, bunching it at your waist with the way his fingers tightened, his bones almost creaking beneath the pressure.
âFuckâ he breathed out, trying hard to keep himself in check, to distract himself by focusing on the rhythm of your breath.
âI knowâ you said gently, âyou're doing well, just a couple moreâ
His head fell forwards, resting his forehead against your temple as you worked, and he instead found that he was losing himself in your presence. He could feel your breath against his cheek, steady and warm, where his was harsh and shallow. You continued to send comforting words his way, your sharp actions a direct contrast to your tone and sentiments. He focused on the sound on your voice, the scent of your hair, the soft fabric of your tunic between his fingers, and soon they began to loosen.
âThere, all doneâ you pulled away from him as you put down the needle and peeled off the back of a bacta patch, and Crosshair had to catch himself from falling forward.
You placed the patch over the affected area, lightly running your fingers over the edges to press it into his skin, and he immediately felt the solution beginning to cool the flaming agony that stemmed from the gash. A breath left him, and he sat back on his heels more as his head tipped back in relief.
âBetter?â you asked.
âBetterâ he replied, then looked down at you to see your worried expression taken over by something more unreadable.
You chuckled slightly as you tidied up the medkit, âdon't worry, I'm not expecting a thââ
âThank you" he spoke before you could finish, voice firm enough that your eyes snapped back up to his.
You cocked your head a little as you looked over his features, âwell⊠you're welcome thenâ
Placing the medkit back in your knapsack, you produced a dark piece of fabric, handing it over to him. He looked at the black material clasped in your hand and realised you were offering him your spare blacks.
âThat wont fit meâ he nodded his head to the item of clothing, an unimpressed furrow in his brow.
He watched on as you frowned in return, then trailed your eyes down his chest and abdomen, no doubt sizing him up.
âWe look about the same sizeâ
Crosshair scoffed, âare you calling me skinny?â
âAre you calling me skinny?â you replied amusedly, one of your eyebrows raising in tandem with your lips.
He rolled his eyes, âwhatever, hand them overâ
He held out his hand, looking away from your irritatingly enraptured gaze, and you dropped the top into his hand. He threaded his arms through the top and the sleeves, going to pull it over his head until his shoulder cried out in protest, and another pained grunt escaped him. He tried again, but was met by the same results.
âHere, let me help yââ
âDon't touch meâ he replied on instinct, his tone venomous in a way that made his insides coil tightly together with guilt. He could see the hurt in your eyes, a flicker of sadness that only made that nasty feeling inside of him pull taut.
Truthfully, he couldn't stand to have you touch him. If he hadn't been so woozy previously, he may have shrugged off your help with his wound as he usually did, telling you he could sort it himself. Now that he was in his right mind, there was no way he would let you anywhere near him. He didn't trust himself around you. He didn't think he could have you touch him and not do everything in his power to keep it that way.
Though, observing the hurt in your eyes, in the slight downturn of your lips, he felt he couldn't deny you anything in that moment. After a long silence, he sighed. âI'm sorryâ
Without so much as a single word, your hands found the fabric of the top, and you gently pulled it over his head. Crosshair knew he didn't have to say anything, because as much as he wished you didn't, you knew him well, and could read him far more than he was comfortable with.
He kept his eyes trained on yours. So much of your emotions were given away by your eyes, and he felt that you didn't try very hard to hide them, not like he did. He admired you for that. You were so openly giving and sought connection with everyone, even him. Your eyes caught his as you pulled the top down over his chest.
A small smirk wound it's way onto your face, âdon't worry, I won't tell the others you needed help dressing like a little boyâ
Crosshair huffed, trying to disguise what was really a laugh as an unimpressed scoff.
âI'm going to try and contact themâ you muttered, moving away from him to pull out your comm. âHunter? Are you there?â you were met by static, nothing coming through the line.
You tried again a few more times, calling for Hunter to reply, and every time you said his name it was like a punch to the gut. The last time was so desperate, so soft and bordering on loving that Crosshair almost clamped his hands over his ears. He couldn't stand it.
He didn't want to feel resentful towards Hunter, he only had himself to blame for leaving the space for something to blossom between the two of you, and it didn't surprise him in the least. You were both generous in a similar way, looking out for others before yourself, and it made sense that you had gravitated towards each other.
He tried to push it from his mind, vaguely aware that you were sending a recorded message about what had happened. He was more focused on the intense need he had to escape this situation. He couldn't be trapped in here with you, it would be the end of him, he was sure.
You began trying to shift some rocks from the base of the mound they had fallen into, but it only caused a slide from the ones on top of it. You yelped as you sprang back, and a thin crack appeared, running along the ceiling of the cave. Crosshair just huffed and pushed himself off of the ground, going to continue on in your stead.
âI'm not sure that'sââ
The same thing happened, the crack deepening and small rocks falling from the ceiling. Crosshair paid it no mind, but you insisted that he stopped, pleading with him when it only got worse, more rocks shifting unsteadily and falling down around you. Really, it was hurting him a lot, his shoulder calling out for him to stop much like you, but the prospect of being stuck in here struck him as far more painful.
You had always given back what Crosshair gave out for the most part, but with the tone of your voice, he could tell your patience was wearing thin. You were quickly losing your sense of humour, and you finally snapped.
âYou know what Crosshair, I'm kriffing sick of you! If you want to go and get yourself killed, be my guest, I won't stop youâ
Crosshair stopped what he was doing, turning to face you, âyou don't mean thatâ
His tone was partly joking, partly serious, as he didn't know which end of the scale you were on at that point.
âI mean every wordâ you spat at him, far more angry than you'd ever been, and you grabbed the lamp, dragging it behind you as you walked away.
He watched you slide down the far wall of the cave, your arms wrapping around your knees as you brought them into your chest in a huff. For a moment Crosshair didn't know what to do, but he figured he wasn't going anywhere if you weren't onside, so he trudged over you slowly, not approaching quickly for how he didn't know what kind of reaction to expect.
âGo awayâ you muttered, your eyes staring ahead of you, hardened with a resolve to not engage with him.
âNoâ he replied petulantly.
âI'm not dealing with your shitty attitude right nowâ you gritted through your teeth, still not looking at him.
It seemed that his mistreatment of you had finally caught up to him, and made you snap, and Crosshair was almost scared of the uncharted territory that you were now in.
âJust get up and help me shift these rocksâ he knocked his foot on yours, urging you to abide, but you didnât move.
You were silent, and realised then that it looked as if you were shaking subtly, but it was hard to tell in the low light. He was worried about you, but he knew there wasn't anything he could say or do that would help. He crouched next to you with a small sigh.
âWhat's the matter with you?â
âThe matter? Crosshair we're stuck in here!â you finally looked up at him, a scrunch in your nose that he couldn't help but find adorable, and he found himself wishing you would have snapped at him before.
âWhat? Are you scared?â he asked, his usual teasing tone making an appearance.
âYes! I'm scared, alright?â you hissed, and he could see a flicker of fear in your stormy eyes, âI don't know why you aren'tâ
âI don't get scaredâ he replied quickly, a knee-jerk response.
You laughed humourlessly, rolling your eyes, âright, of course. I should've thought of thatâ
Crosshair could see he wasn't getting anywhere, so he took a seat next to you, his back to the wall, one knee bent to rest his forearm on.
âI can't believe I'm going to die trapped in here with youâ you grumbled out.
A pang of hurt cut deep in Crosshair's chest, but he forced a dry chuckle past his lips, an instinctual reaction to deflect the pain. You didn't seem so amused.
âHeyâ he said softly, and you turned your head to look over to him, âwe're not going to dieâ
His voice was as soothing as he'd allow himself, and he hoped that it could bring you even a little reassurance. You seemed almost taken aback, your mouth hanging open a little as your eyebrows raised. You blinked at him, and then settled back into a frown.
âI'm not stupid Cross, there's no way to know whether we're going to get out of this or notâ you spoke softly.
The nickname made his chest seize up, but he sighed, leaning his head back against the wall of the cave, âyou're rightâ
He wasn't going to lie to you, you didn't need that, and it wouldn't fix anything about the predicament you found yourselves in.
For a little while, you sat in silence, save for a steady drip of water on the opposite side of the cave that Crosshair had failed to notice previously. Now, it was all he could focus on. It was a particularly grating noise, something irritatingly steadfast and unyielding about it, just existing in the same space as you, but doing a much better job at consistency than him. It felt like it was taunting him, mocking him, calling him a coward. Maybe he was already going crazy, but either way, he felt compelled to speak up, if only to try and drown it out.
âI'm sorryâ he said quietly, almost a whisper.
You sighed deeply, deflating, âit's not your faultâ
Crosshair shook his head though you didn't see it, âI mean, that you're stuck here with me. I know that you'd prefer if it was Hunter insteadâ
You looked over at him with a curious expression, one that he only saw for a split second before he had to turn away. He couldn't bring himself to look at you for whatever you were about to say.
âThat's not exactly trueâ you said in a measured tone.
His gazed snapped up to you, and you were giving him one of those looks where you were trying to figure him out. He hated when you did that, you were so good at it after all. He sometimes felt that you could see right through him and into his very soul, but he sincerely hoped that wasn't the case, he couldn't think of anything more horrifying.
âI didn't mean what I said beforeâ you murmured, turning your body towards him with a small smile, âyou're a great end of the universe buddy reallyâ
Crosshair rolled his eyes, âso you don't actually want me to die?â
âOf course I don'tâ your face softened with your tone, and he couldnât believe that such a tender look could be directed at him, he could only think that he didnât deserve it, âyou just drive me up the wall sometimesâ
His lips quirked into a small smirk on instinct, and then it was your turn to roll your eyes.
âNo one enjoys winding me up as much as youâ you muttered, drawing your knees back to your chest as a shudder wracked your body.
Crosshair cast his eyes over you at the action, realising that your medics robes were not as warm as the blacks you had packed for situations exactly like this. He thought that maybe if he was a better man he'd give the top back to you. That's what Hunter would do. Instead, he looked across the cave, to where the previous dwellers had made a makeshift fire. There wasn't much wood, but it would be better than nothing.
âYou have a lighter in there?â he asked, motioning his hand towards your knapsack.
âUh⊠yeahâ you replied.
Crosshair pushed himself from the ground, only a small grunt leaving his lips as the bacta had already began healing his wound. He grabbed the bag and crouched down by the pile of wood, rifling through it to find the lighter which was rattling around at the bottom.
As he arranged the remaining pieces of wood into his preferred shape, you stood and walked over to retake your seat in front of the soon-to-be fire. He got it going quickly enough, lighting one of the smaller pieces and placing it into the structure he had built, but it was weak at best. It wasn't going to keep for more than a few hours with the resources available, and Crosshair was already worrying about what would happen then.
He looked over to where the opening of the cave had been. In the dim light he could see the crack that had appeared in the ceiling, and he felt his stomach twist into a tight knot upon observing how much worse it was already. He blew a long breath out, making the fire ahead of him flicker slightly more, before it settled into its previous dance. Crosshair couldn't hear the dripping anymore, not above the crackle of the fire, and it was a strange relief. Thank the maker for small mercies, he thought, inwardly scoffing at the sarcastic thought.
âWhy haven't you been sleeping?â
The question caught him off guard, so buried deep in his own thoughts that he had almost jumped when you spoke up.
âI don't want to talk about itâ he mumbled in reply.
You nodded, seemingly satisfied with the assertion, but he could tell something lingered in your mind at the way you watched the flames before you both.
âYou've been in my dreams the past few nightsâ you said absentmindedly, eyes almost glazed over as you stared into the fire, little regard for how it made Crosshairâs heart skip several beats. Your eyes flicked up and met his, and he lifted an eyebrow, not sure how else to react. You chuckled slightly before you continued, âthey weren't great dreams, really. Nightmares, maybeâ
Crosshair could feel his insides constrict at the idea of him featuring in your nightmares, his heart beating faster as he willed himself not to react in any way.
âGo onâ
He watched your throat bob as you swallowed, âwell, it always starts with me being chased by a fire-breathing lizard⊠creatureâ
Crosshair couldnât help the way the edges of his lips lifted a little, and he brought his hand up to scratch at his stubble to try and hide it.
âI can see you laughing at meâ you scoffed, âit was scary at the timeâ
âI'm sureâ Crosshair replied, still fighting a smirk.
âWhateverâ you rolled your eyes, uncrossing you legs to stretch them out ahead of you so you faced the far wall of the cave.
Crosshairâs curiosity quickly got the better of him, âwhat was I doing there?â
You looked back over to him before turning your face back down to your feet where you gently kicked your heel into the ground, âit's⊠silly, really. Far fetchedâ
He frowned, âI'm listeningâ
You huffed, and he could see your cheeks darken as you deliberated over your next words, âyou were protecting me. You had a durasteel sword and you were trying to slay the creatureâ
Crosshairâs eyebrows raised, but quickly shot back down at your earlier insinuation, âwhy's that so far fetched?â
You tilted your head to look at him, your own frown creasing your brow, âI don't know, it's not something you'd do in real lifeâ
A pang of hurt sent a sharp pain through his chest. He could feel it, like a real, physical thing, a knife piercing through his heart. You truly believed that he didn't care for you in any way shape or form, and as much as he knew he had no right to feel slighted by it, it cut deep within him.
âNice to know you think so little of meâ he grumbled, pulling his knees up to his chest and tucking his chin behind them as he stared into the fire.
He could see your eyes go wide even as he refused to look at you, âI don't think little of you! Iâ I think you're⊠great, justââ
âJust what?â he snapped, eyes darting back up to yours.
âI don't know, I don't see you doing that for meâ
Crosshair's frown only got deeper, and he forced himself to look away and into the fire again. All of the hurt and jealousy within him, every negative emotion he had brought upon himself by not being honest with you bubbled up to the surface, and he failed to keep it to himself.
âI feel like I've upset youâ you said softly, but he just grunted in reply, âwhat is it?â
âYou really think I wouldn't protect you?â
He knew that this was a path he didn't want to go down, one he wouldn't dare tread if both your lives didn't hang in the balance, but they did. He felt vulnerable, more vulnerable than he ever had or wanted to, and severely misjudged. Something about it made indignance rise up his throat and mingle with his words.
You paused, but spoke you mind after a moment, ânot at the expense of yourself, noâ
He grunted again, âwell you're wrongâ
âWhy?â
âwhy?â he scoffed, shuffling his feet ucomfortably, âI'm not heartless, you knowâ
âI didn't say you wereâ you rebutted, and he finally looked up at you when you paused. You watched him carefully, âyou would⊠put yourself in harm's way, for me?â
âOf courseâ
The shock was evident on your face, your mouth hanging open a little as you stared back at him, eyes wide and unblinking, and he knew instantly that he'd said too much, and that you didn't feel the same way for him. The worst part was, he understood. He knew that he'd given no reason for you to care for him in any real way past doing your duties as a medic, and any kindness you had offered him had been purely from the goodness of your heart, with no ulterior motives in consideration. All the same, it was frustrating. He was frustrated at himself.
His gaze dropped to the fire once more, and it felt as if it were stinging his eyes, but he soon realised that the sensation was actually brought forth by the tears that had collected in his waterline. He blinked them away, knowing that he couldn't, shouldn't cry, even if he had just come to the realisation that you would never see him the way he saw you, never admire him like that, never adore him like he wanted you to. It made him feel like a cadet again, surrounded by people who were supposed to be his brothers, but only feeling like something was wrong with him, that he was unwanted and unlovable for a reason that would forever elude him.
It was his fault. All his fault. He knew it, heâd always known it, and he'd have to live with it for as long as he knew you. It didn't make it any better to know it, it only made it worse. He wished he could blame it on you, make it easier for himself, displace all the blame and take this crushing weight from his shoulders, but he wouldn't wish this weight upon anyone else, much less you.
He didnt dare look up at you again, especially as you hadn't said anything. If the ground opened up and swallowed him whole in that moment he wouldn't have cared, or probably noticed.
âDo you think the others will be looking for us by now?â you asked softly after a little while.
âDoesn't matter, they won't find usâ he grumbled back.
You huffed, âthat's not very reassuringâ
âReassurance does nothingâ
âMaybe not to youâ
âNo, not to meâ
âRightâ he could tell you had rolled your eyes, âyou don't get scared, how could I forgetâ
âI am scared, just not for myselfâ He snapped, his tone sharp as he glared at you. He was feeling annoyed now, and not in the mood for joking in the slightest.
âWhat do you mean?â
He scoffed, his tone not matching his sentiment, âI'm scared for you. I don't want anything to happen to youâ
You watched him from across the fire, tilting your head, and he had to look away.
âWhy aren't you scared for yourself?â you asked.
Crosshair was reluctant to say, but you had no teasing in your tone, and admitting to the truth felt easier knowing that he might not make it out of this cave. He decided that he'd find a way to say what he wanted in as few words as possible.
âBecause⊠if I die, I don't have to live without youâ
Your eyes widened slowly, and he watched your mind work around the meaning of the words, the gears turning behind your eyes. He could feel the embarrassment clawing at his throat, begging him to stop speaking forever more. He didn't know why he would have said that, beyond it being true. You didn't need to know, it wouldn't help you, and it certainly didn't help him.
Then, you did something that he didn't expect at all. You rose from your place on the opposite side of the fire slowly, as if not to scare him, not that it worked. His eyes followed you as you made your way around, and retook your seat in the spot right next to him, so close that if he shifted his arm heâd be touching you. Then you put your head on his shoulder, looking into the fire.
âI'm scared for you tooâ You said quietly.
Crosshair didnât know what was going on. His heart was beating out of his chest, only just managing to keep a hold of the rhythm of his breath as he watched you from so close. You had never been affectionate with him like this, and he was too plagued by confused thoughts spilling into his brain that he couldnât fully enjoy it â enjoy the fact that you were in this proximity to him willingly.
âYou're too careless with your life, you treat it like it doesn't matter. I don't like itâ you spoke up again.
He didnât know what to say.
âHow should I treat it?â he asked quietly, his voice low.
âLike it's preciousâ
Crosshair took soft breath in automatically, taken aback by the simple admission, by how easily you had said it. He could only find it within himself to deflect the comment,
âIt isn't precious, clones are expendableâ
You raised your head from his shoulder to give him a stern look, âI know you don't believe thatâ
He shrugged. He could feel his cheeks scorching and he hated it more than anything. He hoped that the low light would save him from you noticing how your touch made him act. Peering into your eyes as you did to him, searching, your frown softened.
âYour life means a lot to me" you confessed in a whisper. Crosshairâs heart was trying to escape him now, and even more so when your face returned to being serious, âand I wouldnât want you to risk it for meâ
Crosshair matched your frown, drawing his brows together as the dots, the pieces of what youâd said, starting connecting.
âDo you think that's why I would protect you? Because I don't value my own life?â he asked, an irritate edge that made you draw back from him marginally.
âYeah? I mean, why elseâŠ?â
He could have laughed, but instead he shook his head, âthatâs not itâ
He knew what he wanted to say really, but his mind fought to come up with something else, struggling to find the words to express every unsaid thing in a way that didnât make him want to curl up in a ball and never speak again.
âItâsâ IâŠâ he trailed off, uncertain, âI value your life⊠more than anyone elseâsâ
Your eyes widened, and if he wasnât mistaken, the corners of your lips lifted almost imperceptibly, âwhat do you mean?â
He rolled his eyes and looked away, âmust I explain?â
âI'd like you toâ you sounded small, and he looked back over to see that your eyes were wide, shining with hope. It filled him with such an uncommonly warm feeling that he couldn't possibly deny you an answer now.
âIâŠâ he's flicked his eyes across your features, landing on your lips before finding your eyes again and sending you a somewhat pained look, âI can'tâ I don't know how toââ
You took his hand, rubbing your thumb across his knuckles and leaving goosebumps in your wake, âtake your timeâ
Crosshair sighed, suddenly struck by how poor of an idea this was. He couldnât help but dwell on the simple fact that you were far too good for him. He didnât deserve someone like you, and he knew it. You were took kind, too patient, too far superior in emotional maturity and every other thing besides shooting a blaster for that matter. He didnât believe that perfect people existed, but if there was anyone who reached the closest to those heights, it would be you.
âI⊠the way I treat you, it's not⊠right. and it's not a reflection of how I truly feelâ he admitted.
You hummed, nodding as you focused your gaze on his palm, drawing shapes with your first finger, âand how do you feel?â
Crosshair was thankful that you werenât looking at him, and knowing you, it was probably intentional. You knew what he was like, who he really was, and it was as startling as it was comforting. âI feel⊠a lot. You make me feel a lotâ
You smiled, your thumbs tracing over his, âa lot of what?â
An exasperation began creeping on his mind. He knew you understood, you were smart, but you just wanted him to be the one to admit it. He could respect that, however hard he was finding it; you were finally not accepting his half-arsed attempt at affection.
âHappinessâ he said finally, âyou make me⊠happyâ
Your eyes finally raised to his, giving him a curious look, he felt the need to continue.
âI know that I don't act like it, and I know that I certainly don't make you feel that way, and that you're interested in Hunter, so I'm under no impression thatââ
âWhat?â your head tilted to the side, your expression portraying all of your confusion, âI'm not interested in Hunterâ
âOhâ Crosshair sat completely still, just staring at you. He was sure he looked as confused as you did in that moment, but his heart still leapt in his chest all the same, âbut⊠you were sleeping with himâŠ?â
âHe was just⊠I don't knowâ you sighed, wrapping his hand with yours, âwhen I had nightmares as a kid it used to help if I slept beside someone else. He noticed I wasn't sleeping well and offered some⊠comfort, I supposeâ
Crosshair nodded, looking away and into the fire anyway, because he knew that Hunter would always be your first choice, and not him, even if it wasnât in the way he had originally thought.
âBut it didn't really help anywayâ you said, âI suppose maybe I was sleeping next to the⊠wrong person?â
When he glanced back to you, there was something more reserved about your demeanour. You were never usually shy, sometimes quiet, but this was something that he hadnât seen from you before.
âYou're right, by the wayâ you noted, and he raised an eyebrow, âyou haven't always made me feel very happyâ
He offered a pitiful look, âI'm sorryâ
âI know you are, and I don't forgive you for all of it, but I know you, and I know that you don't really mean it. Andâ well, the reality isâŠâ you rambled out, finally pausing for a breath, or to muster your courage, âyou also make me feel aliveâ
Crosshairâs brows shot up.
The entire atmosphere around the two of you changed, the air between you charged with unspoken words, energy waiting, begging to dissipate. Your free hand reached for his face, and you ran your thumb along the lines of his tattoo that followed his cheekbone. His eyes closed momentarily, a shaky breath leaving his slightly parted lips, and he gave into the moment, focusing on the feel of your fingers caressing his face.
Allowing himself to revel in your touch, appreciate it rather than trying to avoid it, he was ready to crumble into nothing. He could have, and he would have died a happy man, his last moment being in the embrace of your calming presence. Your hand found its place on his jaw, and he opened his eyes once more. He copied you, his hand reaching for your face and taking it tentatively within his grasp. Your skin was soft, ever so soft, and his thumb slid across your cheek with ease.
He felt so vulnerable in that moment, but he just didnât care anymore. He felt safe with you, and for once he didnât want to act like a wounded child about his feelings for you. He wanted to show you how strongly he truly felt, the beginnings of making up for the way he had treated you in the past.
Without another second to spare, he tugged on the hand that still clutched his, pulling you towards him, and his lips met yours with an ardency that surprised even him. His arms wrapped around you as he kissed you deeply, holding your body tightly to his, unwilling to let you slip away from him. He was stealing the very air from your lungs, giving you everything he had to offer, and you were taking everything in kind. You were trying your best to keep up, mostly succeeding, but eventually you had to break the kiss, almost gasping for air.
Your breath was heavy against his lips as he kept you in close proximity, and when your eyes met his, a small chuckle left you, bordering on a giggle. He pulled you flush against him, so you rested in his lap, and your face lit up even more. Crosshair felt like he was walking on air, and when you kissed him again, leaning all of your weight into it, he couldnât help but smile against your lips. The kiss grew more heated gradually, and before he knew it, you were tugging at the blacks you had given him.
He shook his head, pulling away before you could get the wrong impression, ânot hereâ
âWhy not?â you frowned playfully, your hands slipping beneath the top and brushing against his skin.
Crosshair growled quietly as you attached your lips to his neck, making his next sentence hard to get out, âbecause I have more respect for you than to take you on the dirty floor of a caveâ
You chuckled against his skin, pulling back to give him a genuine smile, but then it faltered, and he watched a thousand emotions flick across your face in the space of a second. He gripped you tighter, about to ask what was wrong, but you beat him to it with your answer.
âWhat if this is the only time we have?â
Crosshair knew you meant more than something as fleeting as a shared intimacy, and with the look on your face, he immediacy began to understand why people lied to others in the name of sparing their feelings.
He pushed his forehead into yours gently, âthe others will find usâ
Your lips turned down in a dubious expression, âbut how are they going to get us out?â
For that, he didnât have an answer. He brought a hand to your face, taking your jaw and hoping his actions brought some comfort, âI donât know, but Iâm not letting you die in hereâ
âEven you donât have that powerâ you huffed.
Even you. The words hung in Crosshairâs mind, front and centre, meaning a lot more to him than you probably realised. It seemed that you were saying, even him, someone who could do almost anything, couldnât do this. He realised then that you must think a lot more of him than he ever knew, and his heart almost seized up in his chest.
He let a small grin wind itâs way onto his face, âsure I doâ
You gave him a lopsided grin, rolling your eyes as you buried your face in his neck, âyeah, yeah. Whatever you sayâ
As it promised to be, getting out was difficult. The others eventually came for you and Crosshair, by which point he had almost accepted that this was it, that heâd shared his final moments with you. That wasnât enough anymore, it wasnât a sufficient amount of time spent with you, and when he heard Hunter call for him, his need to get out was stoked. Tech had found that the rock on the other side of the cavern held a cave system, Wrecker had set a number of charges with a limited blast radius, and they pulled the two of you out from the other side.
But all of it was inconsequential, unimportant in the face of what had happened while you were still trapped. Even more so now that Crosshair held your body tightly to his, his arm wrapped around your waist as the fresh scent of your soap invaded his senses and no doubt began clinging to his bedsheets. He hadnât let the others ask why he was suddenly being so clingy to you, but something about their smirks and knowing looks told him that he had only been fooling himself in not telling you how he felt.
You laid on his chest, careful not to rest against his wound, which you had treated properly upon returning to the ship. You had insisted it was the first thing you did, before anything else, and he wasnât going to argue with you then, not when you frowned at him in a way that made his chest tighten. The trade off was that he got to join you in the shower afterwards. It hadnât taken too much convincing.
Now with you in his arms, your light breath fanning his bare chest, he knew he wasnât ever going to let you go. Heâd spent too long trying to push you away, but now that he had you, you werenât going anywhere, heâd make sure of it.

đâ.Ëăââââ hey there, sigma Â°ïœĄââž
ËË°âą*ââ· â non idol!hanni x barista!fem reader !!
synopsis: hanni finds herself falling head over heels for the cute guy who works at a coffee shop. hanni makes her move, soon finding out that the guy she was interested in wasnât a guy at all.Â
contains: fluff, hanni being a brainrot enthusiast is real trust, that or she has been infected by brainrot hyein, messages right in the middle of writing cuz i rlly like texting segments in fanfics SUE ME, not proofread
a/n: first time wriitng and posting a ff!! kinda nervous! erm i would greatly appreciate feedback if anyone can give any at like any point in time ^^ enjoy ur stay guys! also i totally took some inspo from âthe guy she interested in wasnât a guy at allâ so please moot me up if yk it đ
âdoes anyone know a good place to get coffee? i fear iâve been too sleep deprived lately, and i need a cup of coffee asap.â hanni sighed, walking to campus with her friends.Â
danielle wore a smile that was as bright as ever, swinging her interlocked hands with haerin. "i don't know of any coffee places, sorry hanni." danielle said. "nah, it's ok dani. it doesn't seem like you would. you're always filled with so much energy," hanni chuckled.
minji, walking alongside hanniâs right, put her finger up and exclaimed âdidnât hyein say she started working at a coffee shop? maybe, you should try that place.â
âhyein works? like, a real job?â hanni snorted. âiâll probably visit after lectures today, but i probably wonât see hyein. it'll be too early for her to have finished school yet,â hanni continued. âdo you wanna come with me?â
minji put her hands behind her head, continuing to walk alongside hanni. âsorry hanni, might have to pass up on that offer. i got a big project coming up and i need to study in the library.â minji shrugged. âokay, nerdâ hanni muttered, earning herslef a slap on the shoulder.
hanni walked out of the lecture hall, searching for directions to get to the coffee place minji mentioned. the shop was a bit of a distance away from the campus, hiding away in a small area of town.
âthis coffee better be worth it,â hanni mumbled to herself.
hanni walked through the door â a bell ringing, signifying her entrance. it was a cozy space, not very crowded but not completely deserted. the shop screamed comfortable and safe. it smelled like freshly ground coffee, for very obvious reasons. a small tune played in the background â a silly little bossa nova tune.
a worker heard the bell ring from the entrance, and so peaked their head out from behind the counter. as hanni walked closer to the employee, the cuter she found them. since when did cute guys work at coffee shops? she thought to herself.
the guy at the counter rocked a shoulder-length, half-up, half-down hairdo, with many ear piercings and a gorgeous face card. to top it all off, he had glasses. this boy was very pretty, making hanni almost fall to her knees. hanni finally made it to the counter, face to face with the cute barista. hanni had to play her cards right if she didnât want to embarrass herself in front of such a fine specimen.
âhey there, sigma. whatâs a fine specimen like you doing here?â hanni stuttered out, immediately going red and mentally slapping herself. she ducked her head and broke eye contact in embarrassment. what was she doing? and fine specimen? what was she even saying?
the barista chuckled softly. âi mean, iâm not too sure. maybe, iâm just a random person who stole an apron and a job.â he snorted. hanni still kept her head down, muttering curses against herself.
âso, miss sigma, what would you like today?â the barista asked. hanni cleared her throat, raising her head but avoiding eye contact at all cost. âiâll just take a latte, if thatâs okay.â hanni said quickly. the guy behind the counter gave a soft smile before giving hanni a total, recieving cash in return.
hanni quickly made her way to an empty table, still beet red. she did not want to tell any of her friends about this interaction, fearing that she will never hear the end of their teasing. hanni took out her phone, trying to find anything that could distract herself from that embarrassing interaction.
after a few quick minutes, hanni looked up to see the cute barista place a cup of coffee onto the table. he still had that stupidly soft smile that made hanni weak in the knees.
âenjoy your latte!â the barista said softly. all hanni could do was nod in response.

hanni walked through the coffee shop doors once more. she had finished another day of lectures and was so down for a cup of coffee. as she made her way to the counter, a familiar face was standing behind the cash register.
âso, miss sigma comes back for another latte?â the barista from yesterday chuckles, hanni going slightly pink in the cheeks. âcould we, potentially, forget about the whole sigma thing. itâs embarrassing,â hanni chuckled awkwardly. âi think it was cute, but if it makes you uncomfortable then sure!â the barista smiled softly.Â
hanni could feel her eyes dilate, sharing a soft smile with the cute barista. ânot uncomfortable, itâs just a little too embarrassing to think about again,â hanni chuckled. the barista hummed in response as hanni ordered the latte from yesterday. she then went and sat down on the same table from the day previously too.
hanni received her latte, accompanied with that same soft smile. she took the time to look at admire the latte art â a cute little bunny.Â
âenjoy your latte!â the cute barista said softly.
hanni went to the coffee shop everyday of the week. and now, the weekend had hit. hanni had no plans to go out, yet she found herself walking out the door and towards the coffee shop.
the bell rang softly in hanniâs ears as she opened the entrance door to the shop. she looked over to the counter, surprising herself when she saw who stood behind it. it was hyein. hanni wouldnât admit it to herself, but she was a little disappointed when she didnât see her little coffee shop crush.
âhanni! itâs good to see you on such a lovely lil weekend!â hyein beamed. hanni smiled softly while rolling her eyes. âso, you work weekend shifts?â hanni questioned. hyein nodded enthusiastically.Â
âyou know, a little birdie told me you introduced yourself to the lil barista crush with a âhey there, sigmaâ.â hyein snorted, hanni going red and smacking hyein from across the counter. âi was trying to seem confident to avoid embarrassing myself.â hanni hissed. âuh huh, didnât seem to work though.â hyein smirked.
hanni ordered her usual latte, paying for it and sitting in her usual spot. when hyein came over to deliver the latte, she sat herself down. âitâll be fine, this place is slow enough for me to have a lil convo with a friend.â
hanni took a slow sip of her latte. âso,â she began, âyour really pretty coworker. is there any way you could, potentially, hit me up with him?â hanni took another long, slow sip of her latte. she could see the mischievous glint in hyeinâs eyes. âoh, you mean that one?â hyein said, tilting her head and pointing towards a figure emerging from behind the counter. it was the barista crush.
âyeah, iâll see what i can do.â hyein smirked. hanni didnât know whether to be excited or scared.
the bell rang softly through the shop as someone walked in. hyein looked at the clock of the shop and got up from her seat. âthe jobâs calling for me now. i gotta make money somehow.â hyein shrugged.Â
hanni waved at hyein, looking towards the counter once more. the cute barista was taking the order of the person who came in, taking cash and giving the customer their change. then, the barista made eye contact with hanni and smiled softly. hanni felt her cheeks heat up a little before smiling back at the guy behind the counter.Â
hanni went back to the coffee shop the next day, under the guidance of hyein. when she arrived, she saw hyein at the counter once more.
âiâm gonna be busy today, but your little crush will be at the counter the entire time iâm gone. when you get the chance, make your move. trust me, itâll be fine.â hyein whispered from across the counter.Â
hanni raised her eyebrow and chuckled at hyeinâs little antic but didnât question it. she ordered her latte to go this time, watching as the barista came from the back and swap places with hyein.
hanni waited by the side of the counter, watching her barista crush make her latte gracefully and slide it gently to hanni. âenjoy your coffee!â he said softly, with his signature soft smile.
the barista went to turn around and redo his little ponytail, until hanni used her voice.
âum, could i ask you something?â hanni asked softly. the barista made eye contact with hanni and smiled, hair tie on his wrist and his hand still holding onto his little ponytail. âanything,â he replied.
hanni cleared her throat and mustered up all her courage. she closed her eyes, and when she opened them again she wore a playful smirk.
âso, pretty boy, do you have a name or should i just call you mine?â hanni said smoothly, trying to keep up her charismatic act. she watched the barista in front of her go pink in the cheeks a bit, but he looked a bit confused and tilted his head. he let go of his ponytail and let them fall to his sides.
âpretty boy? hate to break it to you but, erm, iâm a girl.â the cute girl chuckled awkwardly, still wearing that stupidly cute, soft smile. her hair fell above her shoulders.
hanniâs eyes widened a bit, her jaw dropping. how did she get it so wrong? hanniâs cheeks began to heat up as she avoided eye contact with the barista standing across the counter. this felt like the sigma thing all over again, only 10 times worse.
âthat stupid hyein. always pulling her little pranks.â the girl in front of her snorted. âi get perceived as a really pretty guy a lot, but i swear hyein told you. that damned girl is always causing trouble.â she chuckled.
hanni slowly made eye contact with the cute barista again, almost melting at the sight of her smile. hanni was so downbad. âi, um, look iâm so so sorry.â hanni began, scratching the back of her neck.
the barista only smiled wider, and nodded softly. âitâs not your fault. hyein was always the more mischievous cousin.â she replied softly. hanni felt her world shake. âcousin!?â she exclaimed.Â
the barista sucked in air through her teeth and shook her head slowly. âiâm going to give her a piece of my mind, excuse me. when you leave, maybe check the inside of your latte and the side of the cup.â she winked before going to the back.
hanni walked out of the coffee shop, hearing some bickering from the back room. hanni opened the lid of her to go cup, looking at the latte art. it was a heart. hanni couldnât stop herself from smiling widely before checking the side of her cup. there was writing with a phone number below.
âhey there, sigma! text me xoâ

Heyy! Can you make a kenan x reader imagine?? So reader gets kind of ignored by kenan because of his full schedule and when she finds him relaxing at their living room she is all happy to see him and he gets annoyed that she's super clingy but he's actually angry because of a bad day at training. So she changes a through time, she's less around and less talking. Kenan later realises the mistake he made and tries to to be forgiven.
Silent Regrets~Kenan Yildiz
ă»â„ă»prompt list
ă»â„ă»masterlist -> part 2
ă»â„ă»who I write for
Kenan walked through the door, his shoulders slumping with exhaustion.
She had been waiting for this moment all day, eager to see him after weeks of barely spending time together. The excitement bubbled in her chest as she hurried to the living room, but when she saw his faceâtired, irritatedâshe hesitated.
Still, she couldnât stop the soft smile that crept onto her face. "Kenan," she said, her voice filled with warmth. "Youâre home early."
He tossed his bag onto the couch and let out a heavy sigh, not meeting her gaze. "Yeah."
"how was training?" she said, her tone still light.
"Long," he muttered, sitting down and leaning back against the cushions, his eyes shutting briefly.
She bit her lip, unsure whether to push further. He had been distant lately, and the silence between them had grown unbearable. Maybe tonight could be different.
"I made your favorite for dinner," she said softly, trying to gauge his mood.
"Not hungry," he replied, his voice flat.
The rejection stung, but she swallowed the lump in her throat, determined not to let it show. "Do you want to talk about your day? Or maybeâ"
"Can you just stop?" His words sliced through the room, sharp and sudden, and it felt like a slap.
Her heart sank. "Stop what?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
He opened his eyes, his jaw tight as he stared at her. "This. Hovering. Trying to talk when I donât want to. Youâre always⊠there. I just need some peace, okay?"
She stood frozen, the weight of his words crashing down on her. "I⊠Iâm just trying to be here for you, Kenan," she said, her voice trembling.
"Well, maybe I donât need that right now," he snapped, running a hand through his hair. "Maybe I need you to give me some space."
The words hit harder than than expected, and she took a step back, her arms wrapping around herself as if to shield from the sudden cold between them. "Space," she repeated, the word catching in her throat.
He sighed, rubbing his temples. "Iâm just tired, okay? Iâve had a terrible day, and I donât have the energy for this."
She nodded slowly, blinking back tears. "Okay," she whispered. "Iâll⊠give you space."
Without another word, she turned and walked away, her heart heavy with all the hurt she kept in.
She could feel his gaze on her back for a moment before the sound of the television filled the room, drowning out the silence that screamed louder than any argument ever could.
Days had passed and she pulled back. It wasnât intentional at firstâit was self-preservation.
Sue stopped waiting at the door for him, stopped trying to talk to him when he came home. She became quieter, less present.
Where once she filled the silence with stories and laughter, now she simply jusy existed.
Kenan noticed. At first, he thought he had finally gotten what he wanted: space. But as the days stretched on, the emptiness began to gnaw at him. The house felt cold, her absence glaringly obvious even when she was just a room away.
He came home one evening to find her sitting at the kitchen table, staring blankly at her untouched dinner. She didnât even look up when he entered.
"Hey," he said softly, his voice hesitant.
"Hey," she replied without emotion, her gaze fixed on her plate.
The lifelessness in her voice hit him like a punch to the gut. "Did you eat?"
She shook her head. "Not really hungry."
He frowned, stepping closer. "Is everything okay?"
She laughed bitterly, the sound hollow. "I could ask you the same thing."
He hesitated, the guilt bubbling to the surface. "Iâve been a jerk, havenât I?"
She didnât respond immediately, her fingers tracing the edge of her fork. "You told me I was too much," she said quietly. "So I decided to be less."
His heart sank at her words, the weight of his actions crashing down on him. "I didnât mean it," he said, his voice breaking. "I was angry and frustrated, and I took it out on you. But I never meant that."
She finally looked at him, her eyes filled with hurt. "You said it, though. And itâs all Iâve been able to hear since."
He knelt beside her, reaching for her hands. "Iâm sorry," he whispered, his voice trembling. "Iâve been so caught up in my own stress that I didnât see how much I was hurting you. Youâre not too muchâyouâre everything I need. And Iâve been pushing you away like an idiot."
Tears welled in her eyes, but she refused to let them fall. "Do you even realize how hard it is to feel like youâre a burden to the person you love most?"
His grip on her hands tightened, his own tears threatening to spill. "Youâre not a burden. Youâre my world, and Iâve been too blind to see how much I was taking you for granted. Please, give me a chance to fix this. Iâll do anything."
She searched his face, looking for the sincerity she needed to see. When she found it, the tears she'd been holding back finally fell. "You really hurt me, Kenan," she said softly.
"I know, I'm sorry" he whispered, pulling her into his arms. "Iâll spend the rest of my life making it up to you."

Penalty II
Barcelona FemenĂ + Jenni Hermoso x Hardersson!Reader
Natalia Guijarro (OC) x Hardersson!Reader
Part of The Big Adventures Universe
Summary: Jenni tries to score a penalty
Jenni arrives after lunch, stretched and ready to beat you where Alexia has failed.
"Can you believe that this is the same kids that Tana went around getting our shirts for?" Jana asks in disbelief as Jenni sends an absolute rocket towards the goal only for you to collect it like it was shot at you by a six year old.
You drop the ball to your foot before shooting it back to her.
Jenni doesn't have your skills in the slightest so she doesn't catch it with her hands but rather her stomach. To her credit, she takes it well and grabs the ball to take another penalty.
"You know," Pina says as she watches Jenni kick another ball at you," When Aitana came up to me to ask, I was certain she was giving them to a kid that wanted to be a forward. I watched her grab one from Mariona and Salma before me."
"But why?" Talia asks suddenly," She's always wanted to be a keeper."
"I didn't know her," Pina replies with an eye roll," Aitana didn't give much of an explanation. Sue me for assuming."
"I couldn't imagine her as anything other than a keeper," Aitana says finally as another ball goes rocketing at you that you collect without even a second thought.
"It seems weird now that you say it," Pina agrees," But again, I didn't know who it was for at the time."
She reaches for more of the juice that Paredes packed.
Across the field, you collect yet another ball as Alexia grabs Jenni by the back of the shirt to pull her into an imitation of a team huddle.
The two of them are close enough that their heads are pressed together, no doubt trying to come up with a plan they haven't tried yet.
You stand there awkwardly, adjusting your gloves as the two veterans whisper together like two schoolkids. You wait a little longer before deciding that you'll just go and sit down while the two of them cook up a master plan.
"Hey," You say to Talia softly, taking her hand as you sit down.
"Hey," She replies," Are you finished then?"
"I think they're trying to work out a plan," You confess," They're two seconds away from drawing it out with a stick in the dirt."
It's a bit embarrassing for them because you've hit the nail on the head. Both of them are clutching sticks, looking on the ground for a patch without grass so they can draw something out.
"Do you think they regressed since they retired?" Talia wonders aloud when Jenni and Alexia find a clear patch and get to work drawing with their sticks. "Like, do you think that they've gone back to children? Is that what's going to happen to us?"
You frown. "I don't know. Did it happen to your cousin?"
"Patri was always a child."
"Okay!" Alexia says suddenly, clapping her hands," We've got it. We've done it. Get back out there."
You laugh a little under your breath but get back up.
"Don't let them win!" Patri yells after you along with the jeering from the rest of the girls as you take your spot back on your goal line.
Jenni runs up to kick the ball only to fall short and wheel around back to Alexia to whisper to her about something.
Alexia whispers back until they're having a little argument in hushed voices.
"Come on!" Pina cajoles," Are you scared or what?"
There's more jeering the longer they take until Jenni steps up again.
She doesn't do a run up and you're already moving to the left before she's even realised she's shooting that way.
You collect it easily, rolling the ball back.
Jenni huffs and Alexia runs up to whisper something into her ears. She nods and tries again.
Just like Alexia, she grows a bit more annoyed the longer it takes to get passed you. You don't give her any hope and the next time Alexia comes up to whisper in her ears, she snaps," I know! It just isn't working!"
"Do you want to stop?" You ask," It's getting late now."
"Yeah," Jenni says," Alright-"
"No!" Alexia snaps," Don't admit defeat! Don't let her win!"
"Hey!" Jenni throws her hands up in defence. "I'm more than happy to let her win. I know when we're outclassed."
"We're not outclassed! We're just rusty!"
Jenni claps you on the back as Alexia continues to insist she's just a little rusty.
"How do you deal with her at training all the time? Is she this intense as a coach?"
"More intense," You answer," You should see her when the midfielders mess up."
Jenni laughs. "Oh, I can imagine. Does she still get crazy eyes?"
You shrug and that's answer enough.
"I don't get crazy eyes!"
Jenni can't stop laughing now. "Sure you don't, Ale."

Meant to be Broken âĄ
pairing: corrupt cop!naoya zenin x fem!reader
summary: on your way home from work, you accidentally hit naoya zenin with your car. you believe you're in huge trouble when you find out he's a police officer. luckily (or unluckily) for you, he has a few ways you can make it up to him in mind.
cw: nsfw (18+), smut, dub-con, p in v, oral sex (m receiving), degradation, car sex, misogyny (it's naoya lol)
word count: 3k
a/n + tags: comm for the bestie @nexysworld @gor3-hound picture of naoya by @/sso_s__ on twt
Your fingers thrum against the steering wheel as your car glides along the road. You match the beat of the music playing in the background. It's a good distraction for you. It was a nice enough day out, but your mind wasn't as sunny and serene.
You'd had a shitty day at work. You woke up late and got shit from your boss for it. Your computer wouldn't log in, so you had to work at the outdated one towards the back of the office under a drafty vent. On top of that, you had a killer headache. You really just wanted to get home.
The sun was setting over the horizon in the distance, the sky a pretty hue of pink. You take it in while making the turn into your neighborhood. Only a few hundred yards till you could pull into your garage and walk into the comfort of your home. You just have to get down one more street.
You're making the final turn on your route. You can nearly feel the soft fabric of your sweatpants and oversized t-shirt when there's a blur in front of your windshield and a sound thud against the hood of your car. You slam on the brakes as fast as humanly possible, jerking yourself hard against the seat. Whipping the car into park, you sit there for a moment. There was no fucking way you just hit someone. If asked, you would swear on everything that no one had been crossing.
After a couple moments, you unbuckle your seatbelt and get out. Your movements are a little slow, simply for the fact that you're still questioning if this is some kind of joke.
You round the front of your car and gasp at the sight before you. You'd actually hit someone. A man lies crumpled up near the bumper, writhing in pain.
"Oh- Oh my God. Are you ok?" you ask him. You rush over and crouch behind him.
He turns to face you, and your heart drops. His face is stained with scarlet, blood oozing from a cut on his forehead. He's got a nasty scowl aimed at you too.
"What do you think?" he snaps. You're pretty sure you hear him grumble something about how of course it was a woman that hit him, but you can't be sure. Your pulse is pounding in your ears too loud to focus on mumbling.
"Jesus, I'm so so sorry," you say.
"Instead of wasting your time with apologies, you could try helping me up," he says.
"You're right. My bad. Here," you say, offering your hand. He takes it but doesn't stop glowering at you for a second.
You help him to his feet again. Once he's stable, he lets go of your palm and wipes it on his pants. A bit rude, but you supposed you deserved it.
"Are you hurt? Could I take you to a hospital or anything?" you ask.Â
You try to sound as sweet as possible. He could be as pissy as he wanted, you were just praying to any higher power you could think of that he wouldn't sue you.
He simply rolls his eyes at your question. Your cheeks burn, and you awkwardly avert your eyes. You notice he'd dropped his wallet on the asphalt, so you reach down to retrieve it for him. Once you pick it up, your blood runs cold. Inside the wallet is a shiny silver star. A police badge.
Panic runs through you. The last thing you needed was a ticket, let alone a criminal charge. Your eyes dart up to him. He's wearing the smuggest grin you'd ever seen.
"Officer. Sir, I am so so sorry. Again, please let me know if there's anything I can do to help you. It was my stupid mistake. I swear, I'm normally a super safe driver," you say.
He chuckles and shakes his head. "It's cute how you little girls try to get out of trouble once you see how helpless you really are," he taunts.
You're speechless. If he was going to be like this, you were truly fucked.
"Don't tell me that's all you have for an apology. I've heard better from a mute," he says.
"I really didn't mean to hit you. Please, I'm just having a really bad day," you start timidly, but he cuts you off.
"Stand up. You look like a bitch begging for scraps down on your knees like that," he says, flicking two fingers to beckon you up.
You rise quickly at the command. You hated obeying a total asshole like him, but he held so much in his hands right now. There was nothing to do but follow along.
"There we go," he says and brings his hand to your face. It runs down your jawline to your chin. He tilts your face around, getting a look at you from all angles. "You're cute. No wonder you hit me."
Confusion flickers through your eyes. "What's that mean?" you ask as non-confrontational as you can manage.
"Well you know what they say: a pretty face or a brain, women don't get both," he mocks.
Now it's your turn to scowl. You can't even help it. The expression shows itself before you have the chance to hide it. Your previous mindset shatters in a matter of seconds.
"I didn't hit you cause I'm a woman. I hit you cause you darted into the street," you say.
His eyes brows raise with amusement, and the urge to bicker with him dwindles inside you.
"Really?" he asks, "Are you high then? Drunk maybe? Those are the only other reasons why you'd make such an egregious error."
Internally your blood pressure rises, but externally you keep it cool. "I promise it's neither. It was an accident. I just didn't see you," you explain.
"An accident? I don't know if I believe that," he tuts, "Before you said mistake. That could imply some intention."
"Accident and mistake mean the same thing," you dispute with a little desperation.
"I don't know... changing your story, cause to suspect intoxication, arguing with an officer. Things aren't looking good for you. I have reason to write you up at the very least," he chides.
"Please don't," you practically beg, "I'm sorry for arguing, but I swear on everything that I'm not on anything and it was absolutely not my intention to hit you with my car. Please there has to be something I can do."
That grin from earlier spreads across his face again. "I suppose there's a few things you could do. Don't think we should talk about them in the middle of the street though."
"Oh um, did you want me to pull my car to the side of the road?" you ask.
"Sounds like a good start, don't you think?" he asks.
You nod and quickly turn around to hop back in the car. Alone in the interior, you let out a shaky breath. You had a feeling as to what was coming. It wasn't ideal, but you guessed it was better than hundreds of dollars for a ticket or thousands on bail. Maybe he didn't get laid often with an attitude like that, and you could make him cum quick.
You drive a little way down the street before putting the car in park again. It crossed your mind to speed off and drive away, but you'd bet your life he had your license plate by now. You let out a final deep sigh before the backdoor opens, and he slides into the car.
"Get in the back with me," he says.
You obey again, opening your door and transferring to the rear seats of your vehicle. You look over at him with a mix of apprehension and annoyance. It entertains him all the more.
"You look like you know what I want," he says.
"I have a pretty good guess," you say, your voice quiet compared to his.
He leans in closer to you, nuzzling the side of your head and taking in your scent.
"You get yourself in this kind of situation often?" he asks before nipping at your earlobe sharply.
You wince and pull away slightly. His hand comes up and keeps your head close before you can move too far away though.
"No," you scoff.
"Good," he chuckles.
Despite his pretty face, everything about this moment is absolutely vile. He teases your ear and down your neck with a mixture of his lips and teeth. Simultaneously, his hands slide up your body to fondle your breasts. He gropes the mounds haphazardly, digging his fingers into them a bit too hard.
"You got nice tits, I'll give you that. Think I should've frisked you first," he whispers, "Maybe taken you back to the station for a strip search. Though then some of the other guys would've wanted a turn, and I don't like sharing my toys."
You scowl and look in the other direction. He was repulsive, but at the same time, some heat was beginning to pool in your belly from the combined touches of his mouth and hands. Though just as you're coming to enjoy the sensations, he takes them away. He pulls back from you, his hand going to the hardening bulge in his pants instead.
"I wanna try out that cute mouth first. I know there's a better use for it than talking," he says.
He's quick to undo his fly and whip his cock out. He gives it a few lazy strokes. It's pretty like everything else on him, the head already starting to glisten with pearly white precum.
He smirks at you taking in the sight. "What're you waiting for? I don't have all night."
Reluctantly, you get on your knees on the bench and lean forward. Your fingers wrap around the lower half while your mouth engulfs the top portion. The salty liquid spreads over your tongue, and your eyes flutter shut.
You hear him grunt from above you. One of his hands comes to rest on the back of your head and pushes you down a little more. You suck him deeper, laving your tongue against the underside of his cock.
"There you go. Take it," he moans quietly.
You tune him out and begin to bob your head. Soft slurping noises come from your mouth. Your hand lazily strokes the base. He was long enough to give you a little challenge but not thick enough to present a real struggle. You pick up a little speed, still wanting this to be over as quickly as possible.
He hums with satisfaction and relaxes against the smooth leather seats. His head tilts back and a low, whiny purr leaves his lips. You give his dick a gentle squeeze and suckle on the tip, letting some of your drool dribble down to his balls.
His hips buck up at the onslaught of sensations, and you gag a little. The noise isn't too loud, but he hears it. His eyes glow with desire at the thought of making you do it again.
His hands find their place on either side of your head. He acts as if he's guiding you at first, but he doesn't have the patience to truly ease you into having your face fucked. Before you can really register it, his hips start to thrust upward. His tip rams against the back of your throat, his shaft sliding between your lips over and over.
You give him what he wants and gag again. Spit seeps from between your lips onto his length. Your eyes water as he forces his cock as deep as physically possible.
"Think your throat was made for this. With lips like yours, it has to be," he mutters.
He keeps going, using your mouth as his fleshlight for the next minute or so. Your nose is nestled against his pelvis before he finally yanks your head off and sits you up again.
You're a bit dizzy when you're upright again. It's a relief to get a full breath of oxygen without the obstruction of him in your throat. He laughs quietly at the dazed look on your face, your teary eyes, and your saliva-coated lips.
"You liked that, hm? Think you needed it more than I did," he mocks.
You don't give him any indication either way. You're occupied with your vision coming back into complete focus.
"Now, face down ass up for me," he commands.
You go to move, but then pause and stare at him.
"In the car?" you ask uncertainly.
"Yes, in the car," he says, "It's cute how you ask that as if you have a choice."
"But- but why? I could make you cum if you lemme use my mouth a little more," you offer, but he shoots you down.
"I don't want your mouth. I pulled you off for a reason. I want a taste of that pussy before I cum. If you know how to give a blowjob like that, you must have something worthwhile between your legs," he says.
It's hard to fight off the heat creeping to your cheeks after hearing that. But you still don't move just yet.
"But someone could see... that's more obvious," you try to reason.
"Yeah? And what's anyone gonna do about it besides live with the knowledge that you're a slut?" he asks.
Just like that, you're really reminded of what this situation is. You flip over and pull down the clothing on your lower half to expose your cunt to him.
A whistle comes from behind you. You feel his hand come up to cup one of your ass cheeks. He drags his thumb up and down your folds, feeling the small amount of arousal that had collected there from giving him a blowjob. He dips the digit inside for a moment before pulling it out again. He just wanted to hear the sweet little noise you'd make. He wasn't disappointed by the whine he received.
"Are you on the pill?" he asks.
"Mhm," you hum.
"Clean?"
"Yes," you scoff.
Your attitude amuses him. It doesn't discourage him from rising to his knees behind you in the slightest. He balances himself on the seats before nudging his tip at your entrance and sliding in. The both of you moan and groan at the feeling.
Your nails claw at the seams of your seats as he sinks all the way in. He grabs your hips and makes sure you can't squirm away. He goes in until he bottoms out, completely wrapped in the warm wetness of your tight heat.
He doesn't give you time to adjust before he begins thrusting. He starts rocking right away, chasing his own pleasure like it's running from him. Your cheek rubs against the leather as he bumps you back and forth. You can tell the car is shaking from his movements, you just hope it's not too obvious to anyone who passes by. Though it wouldn't really matter. Even if they didn't see the car's motion, they'd surely spot the silhouette of the man in the backseat.
"Fuck," he whines, "You're tight. Think this might feel better than that mouth of yours."
You simply mewl in response. His cock was sliding deep, reaching all the little spots that didn't get as much attention as they needed. Your breathing turns to panting which only makes Naoya thrust harder.
"There you go, puppy. I knew you'd like it. This is what you're good for," he says as he continues pistoning himself inside you.
You try to hold in your shameful moan, but it slips out anyways. Your toes curl and your eyes flutter shut, rolling back behind the lids. From above, Naoya continues speaking. You're pretty sure he gets off to the sound of his own voice.
"I could've fucked you right in the middle of the street and made you thank me for it," he grunts, "You would've done it too, you little whore. Knew from the moment I saw you that you'd let me do anything I wanted."
You whimper because in a way, that was partially true. You gasp as you start to get closer. He smacks your ass hard while he continues rutting into you.
"Dumb slut. Not so concerned with people seeing now that you're about to cum, huh?" he taunts.
Shaking your head in agreement, you press your cheek further against the seat. You'd have preferred if you could at least maintain the story that he didn't make you cum, but it didn't seem like that was going to be the case. And honestly at this point, you felt too good to care.
He knows that he's getting close too. He can feel how his dick is pulsing with the need to empty his balls, fuck you full of his load.
He goes faster, gripping your hips strong enough to bruise. He's going so fast that it's like a blur. That's what pushes you over the edge. You clamp up on his cock which in turn causes ecstasy to spike through him and drag him to the finish line.
The two of you cum in tandem, you gushing on his cock and him stuffing you with his release. Even with your disdain for him, being fucked full of cum gives you the warm feeling of satisfaction. By the time he's finished, you're practically a puddle in your backseat.
He pulls out quickly, not caring to let you adjust to the emptiness as you would have preferred. He doesn't rub your back after or tell you that you did good. Doesn't let you curl up to his side or stroke your head. He simply pulls his pants up again and wipes the sweat from his brow.
He glances at your fucked out state. It brings him nearly as much satisfaction as his actual orgasm had, seeing how totally ruined you were.
Patting your ass, he scoots to the door and steps out.
"Have a good night, miss. Make sure you watch out for any pedestrians on your way home," he says, imitating a professional tone.
And with that, heâs gone, leaving you to scrape yourself back together.

âౚà§ËâĄËàŁȘ if you love me right, then who knows !!
á°.á you decide it's time to let your beloved bodyguard relax. ( fem!reader )
pairing jinchul woo x reader word count 2.4k content contains breeding kink, creampie, roleplaying domesticity (pretending to be husband&wife), bodyguard!au, rich girl!reader, size difference/size kink kinktober masterlist
Itâs been a rough day, give or take.Â
From the moment Jinchul Woo steps into the office, heâs been slammed with work. Hunters not returning, hunters looking to sue because of jobs gone wrong, new gates opening up at every other second, coworkers who are so swamped with work that theyâre looking to pass it off to anybody and everybody â and as the chairmanâs right-hand man, Jinchul gets the privilege of taking the brunt of it. How lucky is that?
And itâs because heâs the chairmanâs most trusted employee (and the strongest A-Rank he has in his arsenal), that when all is said and done, the working day isnât over for Jinchul.Â
Instead of coming home to his stark apartment, empty save for the essential pieces of furniture, like a couch he put purely for its functional purposes instead of aesthetic reasons, he finds himself pulling up to a gated estate, opening the clicker so the gate opens to allow his car inside, and then heâs parking in a garage full of luxury vehicles.Â
For the past month and for the foreseeable future, Jinchul Woo has been given the assignment of a lifetime: watching over the only granddaughter the chairman has. Even if Jinchul didnât respect Go Gunhee, there would have been no room for Jinchul to deny the chairmanâs request. Him asking to take care of you was just a formality. And as a formal man himself, Jinchul can respect that.
The only issue is that youâre not one for formalities. As a college-aged girl with more money and privileges than most, itâs no surprise that youâre a bit of a brat. The moment you saw Jinchul and learned that he was to be at your beck and call, Jinchul knew he was in trouble.
He just never knew just how far heâd go to reprimand you.Â
It all starts off innocently enough; he supposes thatâs how most things go. Gentle scoldings here, a few lectures there. But ever perceptive, Jinchul would catch the way you clench your thighs and rub them together every time he gets onto you. He notices the way you decide to walk around the mansion in pajama sets that get more revealing by the day. The way you start asking him to open jars for you and to build furniture that you donât need. He knows better than to ever act on your desires, but his resolve to remain unaffected crumbles the second you practically pounced on him, batting your pretty lashes slick with tears, asking him why he wonât fuck you. Is it because youâre not pretty enough? Smart, driven? What is it?Â
No. He thinks youâre absolutely perfect the way you are. And he spends that night fucking you, showing his devotion to you, all while reprimanding you in a way that will certainly leave an impression: spanking you for teasing him, for constantly disobeying him on purpose.Â
Thatâs how sex usually initiates between the two of you. You decide to push his buttons and wait for him to snap.Â
But Jinchul is pleasantly surprised when he walks in, slipping off his shoes and tossing aside his briefcase, only to be greeted at the sight of you on your knees, wearing an apron, smiling up at him sweetly.Â
âWelcome home, husband,â You chirp cheerfully.Â
For once in your dynamic, it seems like Jinchulâs the one in trouble now.Â
He swallows hard, looking down at the demure sight of you.Â
âWha- what is this, exactly?â Jinchul stutters, unable to remain composed, nervously tugging at the tight knot of his work tie.Â
âCanât a wife greet her husband when he comes home?â You pout, and it all clicks.Â
The guys at work always say itâs easy for Jinchul to pull in overtime and work himself to death; after all, itâs not like he has a family or a wife or even a girlfriend whoâs going to stay up late, worrying about him. One night, when Jinchul decides to grab a drink after work and comes back to you, you help him onto the couch, worried. He had been too drunk to realize it at that moment, but the fact that you stayed up because he hadnât come home to you yet makes his heart ache. (Itâs why he doesnât pull in as much overtime as he used to, no matter how hectic work gets.) That night, he admits that itâd be nice to have a wife and start a family, to have something distract him from work, to pull him out of the misery of paperwork and other peopleâs troubles.Â
He didnât realize how that drunken confession would impact you.Â
He runs a hand through his blond hair, messing up the styled strands, disrupting the hair gel. âGet up, honey.â He tacks on the pet name, trying it out for the first time. It rolls off his tongue easily, a little too easy, really. He pats your head, and it doesnât go unnoticed by him how much larger his hand looks when itâs anywhere near your body as opposed to his own.Â
âThatâs not fair. I wanted to treat you to something special.â You get up, though youâre still pouting.Â
âOh, yeah?â Heâs walking to the kitchen, wondering whether it would just be easier to order takeout, before the scent of a home cooked meal hits him. âDid you cook?â
âOf course, I did.â You cross your arms, bringing attention to the pink apron youâre wearing. âWhy wouldnât I?â You seem happy that heâs surprised about this. âNow go to the dining room, and youâll see that I already have your plate ready! Just wait a second, though. I have to reheat the soup.âÂ
Jinchul doesnât go to the dining room, though. He remains rooted in his spot because heâs frozen at the view youâre giving him when you turn around. Underneath the apron, youâre wearing nothing. Not even a pair of panties. Youâre crouching down a bit to bring your mouth closer to the pot of soup, and youâre sipping from the ladle, testing to see whether itâs warm enough or not.Â
âAh!â You let out a squeal when you feel the muscular body of Jinchul, the only thing separating him from you being the stiff fabric of his suit. Quick with his reflexes, Jinchul reaches from behind you to catch the ladle before it falls into the pot, potentially splattering you with hot soup. He places it gently in, before shutting off the stove entirely.Â
âJinchul.â You whine, bending awkwardly to try to look at him. âThe food will get cold.âÂ
âI know, but canât a husband just take a moment to appreciate his wife?â You love it when Jinchulâs voice gets all low and husky like this, every word he says coated in his dark desire. His large hands grip your waist, squeezing you gently but firmly, and you feel the growing bulge of his cock straining against his suit pants. âIf I knew you went through all this trouble, I wouldâve told the guys at work to fuck off so I could come home to you sooner.â He whispers this in your ear, leaning down. The strands of his hair tickle your cheeks, and before you can tell him that itâs okay, heâs spinning you around to face him.Â
You look up at him, and heâs grinning, licking his lips as he stares down at you. âIâm sorry, honey, I know you worked hard but dinnerâs going to have to wait. I need to fuck you.â His tone lowers a bit more. âCan I fuck you, honey?âÂ
âOf course.â You choke out the words, too caught up in just how hot Jinchul looks when heâs unbearably horny. Heâs so careful, so put together, so stoic in his everyday life. It suddenly occurs to you that when heâs with you, this is the only time he gets to be a little unhinged, to relieve his stress.Â
Heâs easily picking you up, placing you right on the granite island of the kitchen. Even sitting on the elevated surface, you still have to look up at Jinchul, and he still has to lean down to crash his lips into yours. You moan into his mouth, enjoying how messy and sloppy Jinchul makes out with you. Itâs a stark difference from how he handles everything else in his life, and you want to unravel him just a bit more.Â
While heâs sloppily kissing you, swapping spit and swallowing up your moans, heâs making quick work of the bow of your apron, untying the knot and slipping off the tiny strip of fabric from your body. The cold air of the mansion hits you in full force, and you shiver a bit.Â
âSpread your legs for me.â He grunts out, when he momentarily separates from you, and you comply. He takes a sharp breath, admiring the way your folds are already glistening, how youâre already wet for him. âWere you this wet the entire time?â He asks, dragging his index and middle fingers against your slit.Â
You nod, knowing that anything you say will only be caught in between your little pleasured mewls.Â
âYou got wet waiting for me to come home? What were you thinking about?âÂ
âI-I wanted to welcome you home with a blowjob before you ate dinner.â You confess, more slick being produced when the fantasy re-enters your mind.Â
His eyes darken at the sound of that. âYeah? Fuck â youâre such a good wife, you know that?â The tips of his long fingers tease your soaked entrance, and he leans down to whisper in your ear. âWeâll have more nights for you to do that, donât worry. But tonight, Iâm going to be a good husband and treat you so well. You know what good girls like you deserve?âÂ
You shake your head, not knowing what filth might come out of Jinchulâs mouth.
âYou deserve to have me fucking a baby into you. Youâd like that wouldnât you?â He chuckles, feeling the way your hole clings to the tips of his fingers, eager for more, desperate for it. âYeah, I knew you would.âÂ
Jinchul makes quick work of his pants, undoing his belt and unzipping his trousers, pushing down the layers of fabric âtil his cock can finally spring free from its confines. He pumps his cock once, twice, but heâs too starved of you to do much more. Youâre so wet, the need for prep has long since disappeared, and besides, Jinchulâs fucked you like this many times before. Before you took on the role of wife, you were the brat he had to babysit, and to teach you a lesson, heâs fucked your cunt with no courtesy orgasm to prepare you.Â
And you love it.Â
Youâre already writhing, laying down on the cold granite of the counter as you spread your legs, inviting Jinchul in, gasping and moaning at the way he taps the head of his cock teasingly against your slit before inserting the head in. Heâs in love with the sight of his long cock disappearing into your wet, tight cunt.Â
âIâm gonna make you feel so good, honey.â He grunts out, sliding his cock further into you âtil heâs balls deep. You havenât stopped moaning the entire time.Â
He leans down to capture one of your breasts in his mouth, sucking and biting at the soft flesh as he starts steadily pounding into you, getting into that quick, jagged rhythm of his that heâs particularly fond of when heâs in a rush to cum. His mouth moves upwards, sucking and kissing at your collarbone, moving further up until heâs planting a kiss right on your lips, inhaling your moans of pleasure, keeping up with his same, quick pace, battering away at your cervix.Â
âFeels good, doesnât it, honey?â He asks you, feeling the way you tighten up. âYeah, I knew my little wife would love this. You ready for me to get you pregnant, sweetheart?â He coos, and you canât help but nod. A little Jinchul running around wouldnât be too bad, right? In fact, right now, with his dick making you see nothing but stars, you think several tiny Jinchuls would be a dream come true.Â
You canât answer him using your voice, but you do wrap your legs around his waist, keeping him in place as if he was going to run off. He smiles at your reaction, taking a calloused thumb to rub circles against your clit, relishing in the feel of your walls tightening around him.Â
âAh, ah, ah!â You squeal out, before letting out a jumbled stream of syllables that sounds distinctly like his name. Youâre creaming all over him and his cock, the cock thatâs splitting you open, the cock thatâs going to get you fucking nice and bred, all for him, only for him. His grin is feral as he continues with his thrust, now content to chase after his own high. The ring of white circling around his cock only motivates him further, and heâs shoving himself deep inside of your messy cunt as he cums.Â
Shooting copious amounts of thick, white cum right at the entrance of your cervix, practically straight into your fucking womb, Jinchul still keeps rutting his hips until you let out a weak whine.Â
âAw, are you too tired, honey?â He asks you, giving you a forehead kiss. âJust give me a second, okay?â He tells you, waiting for the pleasure of your walls clamping on his dick to subside. Even after his cock gets too sensitive and begs for relief, he remains inside of you, still wanting to enjoy the feeling of your cunt twitching around his cock, swallowing up his cum.Â
He rests his forehead against your own. âYou feeling alright, honey?â Even though the act should be over, Jinchul is still calling you by that pet name, and you love it. You donât protest it, but you try not to draw attention to it, out of fear that heâll realize he should stop pretending and shatter the illusion. Despite his cock plugging you up, a trickle of the mixture of your shared cum is trickling out of your cunt, and you let out a mhm.Â
âAh, I should get up and reheat the soup for you.â You mumble, struggling to lift yourself from the counter. He only pushes you back down, shushing you.Â
âYou should rest. Let me heat it up.â Jinchulâs hand finds your own, and heâs entangling your fingers together. âBut letâs stay like this just a little bit longer.âÂ
You donât complain, letting the warmth of Jinchul blanket you. You want to stay together like this forever.
(And he does, too.)

As soon as you saw the time go to 0 during a yellow flag and Lando in p16, peeling into the pits after an aborted lap, you knew exactly what was about to happen.
Yes I forgot to post this and it's too weeks late SUE ME
Warnings: Lando being an annoying whiny self deprecating little bitch, handjob, edging, crying
Part 4 of 'One of the Boys'
You were already in his driverâs room when he came in, tears in his eyes and in need of some company.
None of it was his fault obviously, but he still felt the need to berate himself.
âIt's all my faultâ
âI should have gone out earlierâ
âI should have skipped the out lapâ
âI should have b-â
You listened to him beat himself up for over 20 fucking minutes before you decided to stop him.
âNone of it is your fault La-â
But he just kept talking over you and his voice was getting wobblier with each sentence.
âLandoâ
He just kept going, and going, completely ignoring you, and you actually got angry.
So you slapped him across the face.
That got his attention.
It wasn't hard enough to really hurt but he would definitely feel the sting, and he brought his hand up to feel his cheek as his jaw dropped.
His breathing was becoming shallow and his pupils were rapidly taking over the gray of his irises.
A tear rolled down his cheek and he whispered, barely loud enough for you to hear.
âAgainâ
So you did. Slightly harder this time, on the other cheek.
He gulped in a breath, a few more tears escaping.
Your hands came up to cup his face and he whimpered pitifully.
âPleaseâ
It broke your heart to see him like this, but he was so beautiful, face all flushed and wet.
âI'm here for you Lan, what do you need?â
He closed his eyes and nuzzled into your palm, letting out the first calm breath since he'd got out of his car.
âI don't know... I just want to forget today ever happened.â
You leaned over and gently pressed your lips to his forehead.
âI've got you, just focus on me, okay?â
He looked at you and nodded.
You took the liberty of climbing onto his lap, unzipping his suit and sliding a hand inside his underwear to find that he was already hard.
âDamn... you really like being roughed up don't you?â
You tightened your grip on him and he whimpered, biting his lip raw and leaning his head back on the sofa.
âpleaseâ he groaned.
You chuckled and planted a kiss under his jaw bone. âPlease what?â
You sped up your movements, brushing your thumb over his tip on every upstroke and he gasped.
His thighs clenched and unclenched and he soon started trembling uncontrollably.
âPlease don't stop. I'm so closeâ
You pulled the neckline of his fireproofs down to nibble on the skin at the base of his neck and his hips bucked up involuntarily.
âNow then Lando, tell me about your qualifyingâ
He frowned.
âWhat do you mean? I fucked up and- Ahh!â
Your grip was tight around the base of his cock and he yelped, head snapping up to look at you with wide eyes.
âNo! What-â
âYou answered wrong, Landoâ
Once he had stopped pulsing in your hand you resumed your movements, immediately going fast and hard, trying to draw him to the edge as quickly as possible. Â
âI- I- Oh my god! I don't know what you want me to say!â
âYes you do Lando, tell me what happened and I'll let you comeâ you purred, distracting him with kisses along his jawline.
âI didn't-Â fuck, I didn't have time to finish the lap...â he started, voice shaking with need. âb- before the yellow flagâ
âMmh, and who's fault was that, Lando?â
He let out little puffs of breath every time you flicked your wrist, letting you know he was close to the edge again, but you knew he was still beating himself up, so you stopped again and squeezed the base of his cock just as he was about to come.
He wailed and almost managed to dislodge you with how he was squirming in pain, but you refused to let him come until he admitted none of it was his fault.
A few tears streamed down his cheeks and he sobbed openly, in the safe space between you two.
He calmed down a bit and you resumed, paying special attention to his sensitive head, and he bucked up into your hold once again.
âAnswer me Lando, who's fault was it that you got sent out too late? Who's fault was the yellow flag? Was it your fault?â
He was clenching his entire body in an effort to keep himself together enough to answer.
âNo! It wasn't my fault! There's nothing- ah! Nothing I could have done!â
You smiled at him, cupping his face again with your unoccupied hand.
âGood boy, Lando. You're rightâ you wiped the stray tears away and kissed him sweetly.
 âthere's nothing you could have done, you just got caught out by a yellow flag. Now you can comeâ
His back arched and he let out a painful wail as it all came crashing down, the tension and stress melting away.
He came so much it stained his fireproofs all the way up to the neckline, and dripped down your hand to irretrievably dampen his suit so that there was a big dark patch.
You slowed the movement of your hand and eventually let go of him, wiping your cum streaked hand on his suit.
You kissed him and his hands came to rest on your hips, squeezing affectionately.
âThank youâ he said as you separated, closing his eyes and basking in the afterglow.
âAnytimeâ you giggled, climbing off him and looking for your bag, checking your phone.
âNow go celebrate with your team, Oscar got p2 and he'll be devastated if youâre not thereâ you scolded, voice laced with humour as he looked at you through his lashes and groaned.
âI don't think I can walk after that, and I'm not going to be able to drive tomorrow!â he pouted. âNot that it would make a difference if I did...â
âI'll tell you whatâ you said, hanging back in the open doorway âIf you end up higher than p5 tomorrow, you can have me after the raceâ
Lando laughed âDealâ
That was never going to happen, but a man could dream, right?

Could I get a blurb or something from the AYW family when eddie and reader find out that she is infact pregnant and he's so happy and he can't wait to see her all pregnant with bigger breasts etc. And he loves to help her in anyway he can. And he's so excited about her belly when they do have sex. All the Fluffy stuff but a bit of smut to. Hehe. Thanks!
Eddie is a lovesick puppy all the time, but his pregnant wife? Oh boy. So thankful and happy to write this with my beloved @munson-blurbs đ
Warnings: smut, p in v, unprotected (wrap to up), pregnant!reader, breeding kink or does this move to pregnancy kink? We all know this Eddie has breeding kink BAD
Words: 2.5k
[As You Wish masterlist]
Eddieâs been on cloud nine from the moment you even suspected you might be pregnant. Now with it confirmed, everyone knowing, and steps rolling along to get things ready for the baby, youâre pretty sure your husband physically canât get any happier. Youâre proved wrong the moment he notices your breasts getting a little larger, though. Then the very beginnings of your baby bump appeared, and Eddieâs hand didnât leave your stomach for what felt like a week.Â
Your husband has always been a gentleman, but heâs kicked it up a notch now that your second trimester has started. Heâd always carry things for you, but now he makes the extra effort to go grocery shopping so you donât have to reach for things on the high shelf or lift the full bags from the cart into the trunk of your car. And he isnât the only one helping out.
The boys were, for the most part, good about doing their chores. Once in a while youâd have to get on one of them about picking their clothes up off the floor or cleaning up after themselves in the kitchen, but it was never anything major. But as twelve and nine-year-olds, they werenât exactly known to go the extra mile, either. So, the day you first came home to them working as a team to move the laundry from the washer to the dryer, you almost thought you walked into the wrong house. You hadnât intended to stand there and watch them as they did the taskâthey didnât need a supervisor. But the pure shock kept you rooted in place as you watched Luke toss a dryer sheet in and Ryan reach up to press the correct buttons on the dryerâs control panel.Â
âEddie, the boys did laundry,â you had told him when he came home from work, your wide eyes amusing to the man.Â
âI figured it was about time they learn,â he answered, pressing a kiss to your forehead. âHelps you out around the house, too.â
âThat was your real motive,â you had said, narrowing your eyes at him.Â
âSo, sue me.â Eddie shrugged and stepped around you to get a bottle of water.
The men of the house have been at this for a few weeks now and itâs honestly nice to have some of your usual duties lifted from your shoulders. Are things done perfectly? No. But they werenât when you did them, either. At least when Luke got Ryanâs clothes and Ryan got Lukeâs this time, they could blame themselves instead of you.Â
The boys have even been changing their own sheets and putting the clean ones on. Lukeâs been so proud of himself that you donât have the heart to tell him that heâs been putting the bottom sheet on inside out this entire time.Â
The domestic bliss of it all fills you with a soothing warmth, like youâre being wrapped in the softest downy blanket. Sometimes youâre afraid this is all a dream and youâre going to wake up in your apartment back in college, late for some class before you have to go pick up the boys from school so you can babysit them. When that happens, you usually walk over to the large fake crystal bowl on the counter where you keep your keys and pull out your set. On your keychain thereâs a small, laminated Shrinky Dink that says âLukeâ that was given to you the first Motherâs Day that you were with Eddie. The first year they saw you as a mother figure more than a babysitter.Â
You run the pad of your index finger along the rough plastic edge of the Shrinky Dink and the tiny little pricks of pain are another reminder that youâre not dreaming.Â
Getting ready for bed that night, you tighten the belt of your lavender bath robe before grabbing a cloth to wash your face. This bathroom never used to seem as cold as it has to you these past few months. Pregnancy does weird things to your body.Â
âOh!â Eddie says as he steps into the bathroom. He snaps his fingers and spins around to head back into the bedroom. A moment later he comes back with a plastic drugstore bag in his hands. âI got this for you today. I know you said your gums are being more sensitive now, so I thought this might help.â
He offers you a plastic and cardboard package, a jade green toothbrush inside, and the words âSoft-Bristled Brush!â emphasized on the front. The hormones well up in you but you force them back down, refusing to cry over a toothbrush.
âThank you, baby,â you say. âNow I can throw out that mean, old medium strength one.âÂ
Eddie chuckles and presses a kiss to your head as he passes by to get to the shower.Â
As you scour your dresser drawers for pajamas, lacy material grazes your fingertipsâmaternity lingerie, courtesy of Jess, who swore Eddie would go absolutely feral over it.Â
Her exact words were actually âheâll cream his jeans,â but that was neither here nor there.Â
Your eyes flit back to the bathroom where your husband is currently bathing. Your husbandâthe man you love and adore, who doted on you before you got pregnant and is the epitome of devotion now that youâre actually carrying his child. The alleviation of chores, the special toothbrushâŠmaybe he deserves a little reward.Â
As quickly as you canâwhich isnât all that fast, considering your new center of gravity, you put on the babydoll slip, adjusting it so the slit down the middle showcases your bump. The matching set of panties almost feels like a waste, considering how swiftly Eddie will tear them off, but you step into them anyway and complete the look.Â
Thereâs a clattering in the bathroom, jolting your already buzzing nerves. You know better than to ask whatâs going on; over the years, youâve found that many questions are best left unanswered.Â
âBabe, have you seen myâholy fuckinâ shit.â Eddieâs eyes widen when he takes in the sight of you. The towel wrapped around his waist tents where his erection begins to burgeon.Â
âSeen your what?â You bat your eyelashes, exaggerating your innocence, as you caress your bump.Â
He shakes his head. âDoesnât matter.â His hands are drawn to your sides, thumbs brushing over the swell of your stomach. âWhatâs all this for?â
âJust wanted to thank you for being such an amazing husband, even when Iâm tired or moody orââ
âBaby,â Eddie cuts in, âall Iâve done is get you a new toothbrush and delegate chores to the boys. I should be thanking you for having my babyâŠand looking so damn good doing it.â
With that, he gets on his knees, grabs your thighs until his fingertips sink into your plush skin, and kisses the bump.Â
âYouâre perfect.âÂ
He moves forward on his knees, gently guiding you backwards until the back of your thighs hit the soft cotton sheets of your mattress. Large hands follow your hips onto the bed and quickly move down your legs to slip your panties off.
âEds?â
âHmm?â
âI, um,â you pause, feeling insecurity creep up in you despite your arousal, âhavenât been able to shave as well as I used toâŠâ
Eddie pays your words no mind, instead just uses his pointer and middle fingers to part your lips and lick a stripe up your center.Â
ââS not gonna stop me.â His voice is gravelly, deep, and it sends a pleasant shiver up your spine.Â
He takes your clit between his lips, tongue gently flicking over the bud. Giving it a little suck, he drops his unoccupied hand to your thigh and squeezes.Â
You canât help the way your hips move, as though of their own accord, grinding your core against his face. Eddie notices it, too, pulling away briefly to tease you.Â
âNeedy little thing tonight, hm?â His smirk glistens with your arousal.Â
Youâre in no position to argue; you simply nod and thread your fingers through his curls in a silent plea for him to resume licking at you.Â
Eddie takes the hint, his tongue eagerly finding your hole and fucking it wildly.Â
âEddie, shit, holy fucking shit!â You find your voice in time for your orgasm to crash over you, crying out your husbandâs name as he brings you that beautiful release.Â
When he stands up, panting, you can see just how hard he is. The towel must have slipped off while his face was buried between your legs, and heâs now stark naked in front of you.Â
âTried to look at you while I ate your pussy, but, uhâŠâ his cheeks tinge red, âcouldnât quite see you over this.â He cradles your bump, pressing his erection into your thigh. The pre-cum thatâs beaded at the tip sticks to your leg, a reminder of what you do to him.
You flop back on the mattress, breathing heavily with a lazy smile on your face.Â
Eddie crawls up over your body, chuckling when he catches your euphoric expression.Â
âFeel good, baby?â he asks.
âMhmm,â you hum, eyes drifting shut.
Eddie parts the sheer panels of the baby doll top so your emerging bump is on full display, pressing kisses in the valley between your breasts and working downward.Â
He stops when he reaches your stomach. âWish I could just keep you pregnant. Fuck, you look amazing like this.â
âSo do it,â you mumble lazily.
âDonât tempt me,â Eddie says, looking up at you with another smirk.Â
He pauses, delaying removing his hands from your belly but craving being inside you.Â
âRide me, baby?â
You giggle. âGonna need some help.â
Eddie nods, standing up and kissing you with his hands on your cheeks. âAnything. Anything for you. Christ, youâre a goddess.â
He helps you on top, his hands on your hips and holding your bump. Without further hesitation, he lines himself up and you sink onto his cock, letting yourself be filled entirely.Â
âF-Feels so good.â
Eddie grunts. âThatâs because this pussy belongs to me. You belong to me.âÂ
You just moan in response, so he grips your hips tighter and growls, âsay it.â
âI belong to you,â you whimper, tightening around him as he thrusts up into you. âIâll do anything for you, Eddie.â
After a few minutes, a newly-familiar ache creeps into your chest. Though you try to hide your wince, Eddie is all-too aware of your every move. Â
âWhatâs wrong?â He stops thrusting, grabbing your wrists and pulling your attention to him.Â
You gently maneuver out of his grasp and cup your breasts. âTheyâre just really sore from the, um, bouncing.â This never happened before pregnancy, but their extra sensitivity has you feeling every twinge of discomfort.Â
Eddie pouts, not from disappointment, but from the realization that youâre in some pain.Â
âCâmere, sweetheart.â
He withdraws, earning a whimper from you before he gently guides you onto your back and places a pillow beneath your lower back.Â
âIâll take it a little slower, yeah?â
You nod, your warmth enveloping him once again. He thrusts languidly, holding back so he doesnât hurt you, and his carefulness has you connecting your lips to his.Â
âI love you,â you mumble into his mouth. âI love you so much, Eddie.â
âI love you, too.â
His words, his movements, and your earlier orgasm are a perfect combination. You come undone, clenching around his cock and digging your nails into his back.Â
âThere you go,â Eddie coos, kissing just below your ear. âBaby, can I go a little faster? Is that okay?â
He rarely begs you; normally, youâre the one pleading with him to let you come.Â
âSâokay, Eds.â You smile and he returns it, bracing his elbows on either side of your head.Â
He slams into you, burying himself to the hilt and tucking his head into the crook of your neck.Â
âFuckâfeels sâgoodâgonna come.â The words barely leave his mouth before heâs spilling into you, filling you with his seed. His body against yours and his release coating your walls has you falling into a foggy hazeâthe closeness, the intimacy, the safety you feel with Eddie is stronger than anything youâve ever felt before. Itâs only grown fiercer since carrying his baby.
The moment he pulls out of you and starts to move from hovering over your body, you tug him down next to you. Eddie laughs as you practically wrap him up in a death grip as he bounces against the pillows.Â
âWell, this is one way to cuddle,â he says.Â
âGot overexcited,â you say as you loosen your grip on him.
He doesnât go too far though, immediately moving so that you can tuck into his side. As you move to slide closer, thereâs a sharp intake of breath and your right hand instinctively goes to hold your bump.
âBaby?â Eddie asks, sitting up in concern, careful not to jostle your body. âSweetheart, whatâs wrong?â
You shake your head as you scoot closer to him again. The sharp jab of pain vanished as quickly as it was sprung on you. A subtle aftershock rolls through you, but itâs barely even detectable.
âJust some mild contractions. Doctor said they can happen after sex sometimes. Theyâre not, like, baby contractions,â you explain.Â
Eddie visibly relaxes, shoulders dropping, and lays back against the pillows with you. âSo, my excellent fucking skills didnât send you into super early labor?â
A snort of laughter bursts out of you as you lay your head down on Eddieâs warm, solid chest.
âSorry, Eds. Babyâs gotta stay put till sheâs fully cooked.â
Your husband gives you a fake groan but smiles the whole time, kissing you tenderly.Â
âAll right,â he says. âBut I heard from someone who shall not be namedââ
âSteve?â
âWho shall not be named, that sex can help induce labor. In case you need some assistance in a few months.â
You smirk. âLet me know if anyoneâs offering. Thereâs that cute guy at the grocery storeââ
Eddie tackles you, taking care not to hurt the bump, pressing sloppy, silly kisses to your cheek and neck. You squeal with laughter and try to push him off of you.
âIâm kidding! Iâm kidding!â
Eddie pulls back and smiles down at you. âYou better be. Because this,â he gestures to your lingerie-clad pregnant body, âis mine and only mine.â
âWell, this,â you say, gesturing to your own body, âhas to pee.â
Eddie pouts as you slide off the bed, eyes not leaving your frame for a moment.
âBut we were gonna cuddle,â he whines.
You walk into the bathroom as you shrug your shoulders.
âTake it up with your daughter,â you say before closing the door.
With a dramatic sigh, Eddie rolls onto his back and stares up at the ceiling. His thoughts linger on your last sentence and the smile that was already on his face grows until it becomes a beaming grin.
âHoly shit,â he whispers to himself. âIâm going to have a daughter.â
