masterlist | AO3

No one was scarier than Aaron Hotchner.

With his stoic face and monotone voice, many unsubs and government officials alike have shrunk in his presence. Though sometimes he was all work-no-play (or a stick up his ass, which is always so fondly put), he was soft towards the people he cared about.

That being said, it really shouldn’t have been a surprise when you showed up to the office.

You stood out like a sore thumb amongst the dull office setting, your dark, almost vampiric like clothes deeply contrasted the still-life. Your face was complimented by a piercing here or there; one on your eyebrow, a medusa sitting tantalizing above your top lip – which was painted with black lipstick – and your septum was gauged a few sizes up. 

It should have been a lot, but with your trad-goth makeup, it brought the ensemble together.

The visitor sticker stood out against the lace of your top. 

You were searching for someone, that much was obvious, but your eyes just so happened to land on one Derek Morgan.

“Hi.” You breathed out softly as you made eye contact. The intimidating expression on your face melted into a soft one at the hushed greeting.

“Well hello there pretty lady. Who ya looking for?” You smiled at the man’s flirting. “Hey!” You greeted with a bit more enthusiasm. “I’m looking for Aaron? Aaron Hotchner?”

“Aaron? Oh, he’s –” Before he could finish, the man of the hour came bounding down the steps leading to his office.

“Baby.” You greet so softly, so fondly, so filled with love, that Derek feels like he’s intruding on an intimate moment. 

“You’re early.” Aaron rasped. It was clear that he hadn’t left the office for a few with the way his voice fried from unuse. “Ah – sorry, I kinda got a little restless but… I brought you lunch!” To emphasize your point, you lift up the lovely smelling takeout bag and wave it around in small circles. “Forgive me?” You add with a cheeky smile and a tilt of your head.

With the exposure of your teeth, Derek could see the jewelry of a smiley piercing sitting gracefully against your gums.

Aaron looked at the bag and then back at you before speaking. “I suppose I could, but what would I get out of it?” Oh. So he wanted to be cheeky too? Well played. “Well for one, you get to have lunch with your super sweet and cool girlfriend, and secondly, I control whether or not you get kisses.”

This moment proved to Derek that he really didn’t know his boss and close friend as well as he thought he did, because Aaron looked at you with an expression that he hadn’t even given Haley when they were together.

It was a smirk, one that coaxed the need for a challenge, but it was scrambled by the fact that it was fueled by nothing but pure, butterfly inducing love.

It was sickening.

“Well, I see you’ve got this handled.” Derek remarked with a knowing – albeit shit-eating – grin. 

As if you had been broken out of a spell, you tore yourself away from your boyfriend’s enchanting gaze. “Oh, yes! Thank you…”

“Derek. Derek Morgan.” He finished your unasked question.

“Derek…” You repeated as if it sounded familiar. “Oh!” Your eyes lit up in recognition. “Aaron’s told me about you! It’s so nice to finally put a face to the name.”

“Aw, you sweet talk about me behind my back, boss?” Derek teases.

Aaron’s eyes narrowed ever so slightly, but there really wasn’t any real irritation behind it. “If I’m not mistaken,” He began, “You still haven’t completed the first wave of files on your desk.” Your boyfriend nips slightly without even having to glance at his subordinates desk.

Derek all but laughs out loud, “You’re right, my apologies bossman.” His eyes were dripping with mirth. “It was so nice to meet you!” You say with a wave. “You too sweetness.” 

As he scrambles away, you turn to look at Aaron with poorly contained amusement.

“Really?” You ask with a raised brow.

“Sorry sweetheart, but I’d rather not have to inhale my food when I can sit there and leisurely enjoy it with my – how did you put it? – super sweet and cool girlfriend?”

You scoff, allowing him to take your ring adorned hand (making sure to steer clear of stabbing himself on your sharp coffin nails) – which has occurred more than once when you two had begun dating.

“Alright, alright, you little sweet talker, let’s go eat.”

Aaron just chuckles.

Alternative Meeting || Drabble

Fandom: Xmen Warnings: None Wordcount: 1000. did I keep rewriting it until it went from 99something to a nice round 1K? Maybe. So I like round numbers, sue me. Summary: much like it says on the tin, this is an alternative first meeting between Miranda and Kurt, based on the fic of my friend Shadow Sins of the Present because the notion Gambit makes to Shadow about calling her friends caused an idea to bounce around in my head like a DVD logo screensaver.

------------------------------------ She had to say she was rather surprised when she got the call from Shadow. It was appreciated, because Miranda didn't really deliberately watch the news anyway; so being told there were new rules rolling back the rights of mutants even further by a friend was probably better than randomly catching it on some news channel that she was only half paying attention to while at work.

The new policy changes and implications of what that meant for mutant kind were as good a reason as any to finally take Xavier up on his offer to stay in the mansion- at least until this whole thing had calmed down significantly. And for what it was worth, the halls of the mansion were fun to roam around in, her eyes constantly drawn in by the architecture and indoor designs as she curiously stalked around the place like a cat inspecting a new part of their territory.

There was the thing about getting used to the other residents that she still hadn't gotten the hang off fully. While wandering through the halls, something or someone appeared in front of her in a huff of deep purple smoke, her own invisibility power immediately clicking on as she instinctively backed off and hid around the corner- even to other mutants she didn’t find it really easy to explain why she was suddenly a pile of floating clothes and not much else.

The blue mutant that had appeared seemingly out of nowhere looked around in a way that told her he had probably heard some kind of noise out of her, yellow eyes curiously scanning around to try and find the source.

"Hallo?"

She blinked; she hadn't expected such a German accented voice to come out of the other- and she wouldn't admit to it if anyone asked; but she couldn't keep her eyes off him. From the way he looked around inquisitively, to the dark blue colors of his hair and fuzzy looking skin, to the deep yellow glowing eyes and his tail that swinged back and forth calmly... Miranda was simply fascinated by him. The only ones who had looked so vastly different in their mutation, that she knew of anyway, were Morph and Beast; and this one still seemed far different from even them all together. Uniquely his own, and because of it she couldn't help but feel a spark of pure curiosity emerge in her heart.

"Mh. Could've sworn I heard something," he muttered to himself, before Rogue interrupted by calling his name; Kurt, apparently. He was over to her side in a heartbeat. That happened to be far enough away that Miranda couldn't hear their conversation even when she strained her ears, so from her hiding spot she just watched them have a conversation.

"I take it ya gonna stick 'round a while, sugar?" Rogue said with a grin on her face, honestly quite elated if that was the case.

"If things keep going the way they are, ja. I'd rather be in company that won't force me back behind my image enhancer or worse," Kurt responded, still constantly looking over his shoulder in case he saw the source of the noise he swore he had heard.

"Looking for someone?" Rogue laughed softly, to which Kurt immediately turned back to her giving her a sheepish little grin.

"Ah, sorry. When I got to this hallway I swear I heard a small gasp or something of that nature, but there doesn't seem to be anyone around. So, did the mansion get haunted since I've been away?"

Rogue's laughter grew more as she shook her head, amused by the interpretation none the less.

"Either by an actual ghost, or you met Miranda without noticing; one of the new faces 'round here. Don't take it personally; she's skittish and turns invisible when she’s spooked by something or another. You poofing 'round the place like ya do probably startled her."

Kurt looked over his shoulder again, his curiosity piqued at his sister's description of this new mutant. Rogue took the opportunity provided to immediately ruffle up his hair with her gloved hand, drawing his attention back to her.

"Now don't be runnin' off to find her. Like I said; gal's skittish. Shy, even. Don't be doing no fancy things like kissing her hand or we might find out she also knows how to spontaneously combust from embarrassment- Y'already managed to upset Gambit by flirtin' with Shadow, behave yourself."

"Wha- flirting? I did nothing of the sort, I just introduced myself!" Kurt protested, eyes widening at the sudden accusation while Rogue just snickered.

"I know ya don't mean to; you're just naturally flirty to the point ya don't even notice you're coming across as flirting with people. All I'm sayin', sugar; reign it in a tad 'round Miranda, or you'll scare her off."

"... Okay," Kurt conceded, following Rogue as she beckoned him to do so; wanting to show him the new additions to the mansion's build since he had been in the Alps. As they left, Miranda turned herself visible before slipping around the corner just in time to see the tail of the blue mutant vanish around a corner itself. Still feeling the low buzz of intrigue and curiosity hum around her heart, she tilted her head a little as her green eyes flicked to the side in thought.

Kurt, huh? It was a name that told her very little of what he was all about, and for some reason she couldn't quite place she found herself very curious as to figure out more about him. How did his mutation work, how was he able to poof around like that? These questions and many more bounced around her head immediately.

"Who’s that?” she muttered to herself, her interest only rising as she wasn’t going to get any answers right away with him following Rogue to wherever she was taking him, "he wasn't here before; I would’ve remembered someone that unique, surely…"

Hello!! Hope you're having the nicest day of your life^^ i wanna request something and if you cant do it its so alright so dont worry about it^^

Would you mind doing crew boys + anybody hoenstly reaction to you being so nurturing, happy and gentle with them and their friends until they wittness you be serious for the first time and it throws them so off guard when your being serious/professional?

Thank you so much and i appreciate you^^ love, anon 🥚

Hallo 🥚 anon, thanks for requesting!

I honestly love this request haha

Hope you enjoy <3

DTQK react to Kind!Reader being serious

Includes: Dream, Georgenotfound, Sapnap, Quackity, Karl Jacobs

Click Here before requesting, please ^^

Reader: GN - They/Them

*tw: caps

You are basically the parent of the group

You always make sure that everybody is ok, everybody has eaten and drunk water and you also are a mod for all of them

Your friends and fans have always only seen the kindhearted and calm side of you

So imagine their surprise when you suddenly blew up

While on a dtqk + you stream, someone in chat decided to be rude and comment on the other boy's insecurities

You decided to not give it attention until the same person kept on resending the same thing over and over again

It all went too far when the person had the audacity to send you money with the same message just so it would be read put loud

No one insults your friends infront of you and gets away with it

"I'm gonna mute for a sec guys. Ok to whoever clearly doesn't want to be here, keeps on spamming in chat and was dumb enough to send me money to insult my friends, thank you so so so much for your view and your money! I'll make sure to use these 20 dollars to buy one of my dear friends merch and maybe use the spare change to buy you a single brain cell since you seem to have none. Love ya!"

And as chat cheered for you and the mods banned that person, you realized something

You didn't actually mute and the boys heard everything

Dream was in a fit of wheezes and probably fell off the chair judging by the noises. He did send also send you a privte thank you on discord;

George too speechles to even talk, he just let out a few laughs, surprised by your outburst;

Sapnap commented on how he should remind himself to never ever make you mad, because he is genuinely scared of you rn;

Quackity was cheering you on with a bunch of "YEAH, YOU TELL THEM" and "KICK THEIR ASS";

Karl, like George, didn't know what to say and had this "idk what I just witnessed" look on his face

Let's just say that people will think twice before making you angry from now on

[amgeryporcupine]

Hallo! Just wanna put this out here hehehe

I may not have realized this before but with what I do right now has made it very clear me that I do apparently take request and make fanarts out of it lmao (not my initial plan for this blog but oh welp)

Now what I do is NO LONGER a first come, first serve basis scratch that because now I'll draw the easiest ones first, other requests takes time (like comic style, full color, or not s fw 👀, etc) and I'm hoping to post more often. So you gotta wait for your turn cuz dang I'm starting to hit two digits from my inbox and each ideas is just ✨️chef's kiss✨️ and I'm very excited to do each one of them, especially the one's that are rather interesting 👀 (unless more than one request is the same as the other, I'll just make one fanart out of it)

Do I have boundaries when making fanart?

Ya I do now. Bcs I'd like to careful as to not offend someone with it (would also not like tumblr shutting this account too! yikes-) so please be detailed and clear with what you want and be sure that it would be. . . uhhh NOT something that would make ppl uncomfortable/offended/disgusted like controversial issues, underage, etc (will add more when needed)

(I care a lot about what ppl think and it's one of my insecurities- oops)

Btw don't make requests in the comment section cuz I probably won't remember and it'll be hard for me handle it along with the pending requests from my inbox. Finally, would appreciate it more if you're not asking anonymously cuz I'm genuinely wondering how many requests I got from the same person 😆 not that there's a problem with being anon tho, you do you, it's just an offer if you're willing ;)))

REQUEST ARE CLOSED AT THE MOMENT

And if my fanarts somehow caught your attention and thought of making a fanfic and/or another fanart out of it feel free to do so! (Tho I'd like to be tagged or mentioned so I could see it and pour unreasonable amount of kudos :3)

That's all! Thank you for visiting and supporting my blog!

Have a wonderful day/night!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Here's my ao3 btw for risky fanarts ;))

One Shots From Discord Requests!

No. 1: Norway and England (Friendship) England was sitting near the window at the coffee shop his brother ran. He had a strawberry smoothie in his hand, along with a candy bar. As he was daydreaming, he noticed someone else walk in. They had snow on their shoulders as they took off the coat and cleaned the boots. They quietly ordered a warm drink as they took off their gloves as well, their red and blue eyes darting around, as though they were searching. Then, they turned and noticed England. The eldest Nordic of them all: Norway. He gave the Englishman a small wave as he paid for his drink, then going and sitting next to England. “Greetings, England. Long time; no see,” the Norwegian said softly, his voice quiet as usual. “Hello to you, too,” England replied softly, fixing his hair a little. “Is it cold in Oslo?”  “A usual during the winter, yes. Sweden was over today, so I didn’t make it at the time I normally do.” Norway took a sip of the hot chocolate in his hands, humming quietly as a warm smile formed on his face, showing his small dimples. “Your brother always has the best hot chocolate… I wonder what the recipe is,” he murmured. England nodded. “What have you been doing with your new job?” England then asked. “Oh, it’s rather interesting. We harvest ice from the frozen lakes and use it for sculptures and other uses. I never really knew what the uses were since I mainly harvest the ice with my brothers,” Norway explained. England nodded along as Norway spoke, seeing how bright the dark red and blue eyes were as the Norwegian spoke. “You know, when you speak, your eyes always light up,” England said gently, looking at Norway. “What do you mean?” “Well, your eye colours are already dark, but when you speak, they light up; like fireflies, these bright bugs in the summer evenings. They’re very pretty, just like your eyes.” “Oh, well, thank you, dear frie-” “Please, just England is fine, Norway.” “Alright, England… I’ll see you around.” “See you soon, Norway.” No. 2: GerSpa (Relationship) Spain woke up to a sleeping German on his chest. He slowly sat up and kept Germany in his arms, kissing him awake. “Guten Morgen,” Spain said gently. He had learned German just for his husband. “Morning…” Germany cuddled back up to his lover’s chest. “Still sleepy?” Spain asked, his lover nodding gently. “Well, how about I make us some coffee… How do you like it again?” “Vanilla iced…” Spain nodded and went downstairs, pouring himself a cup of black coffee with sugar and cream, then making Germany’s. “Here you go, mi amor,” the Spaniard said to the German, looking at him. Germany thanked his lover quietly taking a sip. He then leaned against Spain as his lover started reading. “What’re you reading?” “A book about the stars. I wanna learn for Poland so he doesn’t feel so alone when he rambles about stars…” “How sweet of you… You really do care about everyone… Why is that?” “Well, mi amor, I was taught that everyone deserves to be cared about unless they hurt you personally. Nobody I know and that I’m friends with has hurt me, and I know that because, despite everything, they’re all still my family after mine passed… It’s strange, y’know? How your friends can feel like your family…” Germany smiled gently, setting his hand on Spain’s cheek. “Well, I consider you family,” he murmured.  “That’s because we’re married, darling.” “I know that, dork!” “Pfft! Dork? That’s the first time you’ve called me that, and I shall cherish it forever. Did Britain teach you that?” “Maybe he did.” “Oh, I’ll give him a piece of my Spaniard mind!” Germany and Spain broke out into a laughing fit, holding onto each other gently, smiling warmly. No. 3: GerFra (Relationship) France was in her office, playing with a Rubrics Cube. She overheard someone walk in and smiled at her boyfriend. “Bonjour, Allemagne!” She said with a bright smile. Germany smiled gently and waved. He slowly hugged his lover. “I’m sleepy…” Germany buried his face into her chest, yawning sleepily. “Did you overwork yourself again, dear?” France asked softly, kissing Germany. He nodded, leaning into the kiss a little. “It’s not my fault though. The EU piled work onto me again…” France played with Germany’s hair as he vented about his work. She noticed his hair was rather messy and grabbed a hairbrush, going through and getting the knots out. Germany seemed to enjoy this a little since a smile grew on his face.  “I’m sure tomorrow will be better - today is Friday after all, so we have tomorrow off.” “I hope so… We can sleep in, right? I don’t feel like getting up early tomorrow…” “Of course, mon amour. We can sleep until three o’clock in the afternoon if you wish!” Germany chuckled softly. “Isn’t that too long?” “Hey, if Bretagne can sleep in until four o’clock, then we can sleep in until three. Simple as that, dear.” “Fair enough. We’ll sleep in until then… Or noon, if we can’t.” France smiled and nodded gently, letting her lover ramble about things he enjoyed. “There. All finished brushing,” she then said. Germany nodded. “Danke, mein Liebe,” he said gently. He then kissed France’s cheek, making France smile warmly. “You’re such a sweetheart…” “You are too…” “You’re more of a sweetheart, mon chere.” “Heh, how so?” “Well, you always give me kisses and gifts, of course. You’re just a really sweet person in general.” Germany blushed at that, smiling happily. “Aw, Danke fur alles, mein Frankreich…” “Not a problem, dear… Je t’aime…” “Ich liebe dich…” No. 4: ItaAme (Relationship) “You can’t miss the sunrise again because you slept in, Ame! Come on!” Italy kept making the American walk up to the roof with her. She wanted him to see how beautiful the sunset was. “Fine, fine,” America replied sleepily, rubbing his eyes a little. He went up the ladder, Italy following afterwards. She ran up to the near edge, being careful to not slip. She sat down and let America sit next to her. “Isn’t it so beautiful, Ame?” Italy asked, hoping he’d agree. “It is, darling. Not as beautiful as you, though…” America kissed Italy after that, chuckling as he knew his wife’s cheeks were hot with blush. He gently pulled Italy closer to his chest, letting the Italian rest her head there. “You’re such a charmer…” “Heh, well, runs in the family!” Italy giggled softly at that, looking at America with gentle, green eyes. America smiled at her, continuing to watch the sunrise. “I’m glad you woke me up to see this, darling,” the American said softly, looking at his lover. “It’s rather beautiful…” Italy just smiled brightly and listened to her husband talk. She really enjoyed hearing his voice more than anyone else’s; always been that way since they met back in 1919. Italy noticed the sun was far up in the sky when America stopped talking. She smiled and stood up, taking America’s hand in hers. “Let’s go back in. What did you want for breakfast?” Italy asked. “Anything that you make, darling~!” “I appreciate it, Ame, but I need to know. You’re a picky eater when it comes to food.” “Fine… I’ll take some eggs, cutie pie.” “Alright, love. How do you want them?” “As cute as you are~!” “...Ame, I swear-”  “What? It’s how I want them!” “Might as well just have me for breakfast then!” “Maybe I wi-” “HAHAHA NO, YOU’RE NOT-” “Aw, come on!” “Still a no!” No. 5: ScotFra (Relationship) Scotland sat down after the recent battle, sighing from exhaustion. He winced a little in pain at the wounds he received, seeing France walk in with a med-kit. “Bonjour,” France softly greeted, sitting next to Scotland. “Hey,” Scotland simply replied. He let France started patching up the wounds on his arm and face. She seemed heavily focused on that, but still wished to peak with Scotland. “You should be a little more careful, especially with your face in battles. You could go blind if you’re reckless enough.” Scotland just nodded, too tired to make a big deal out of that. “You should rest after I’m done patching you up. It’s better for you to sleep than to stay up all night,” France then added. She noticed the Scotsman was too tired to even answer her. She simply kept patching up his wounds before being pulled into a soft kiss. “I know this, darling,” Scotland finally said, his voice quiet and gentle, as usual. France simply smiled, setting her hands on Scotland’s waist. “Just making sure…” “You always make sure.” “Because I love you that much, Scott.” “I know that, darling.” Scotland kissed France’s cheek as she cuddled up to him, her arms wrapped around him. She let Scotland kiss her forehead as she buried her face into his chest. “I love you, dear,” the Frenchwoman murmured. “I love you more,” Scotland replied gently, looking at her. France lightly blushed as Scotland set his hand on his lover’s cheek. “Shall we go stargaze?” “I was hoping to nap, honestly.” “Let’s nap then!” France said with a happy smile. Her lover simply smiled as he laid down in her lap, letting France stroke his hair gently as he fell asleep. “Sleep well, darling…” France kissed him goodnight as he fell asleep. No. 6: GerEng (Relationship) England was sitting at the bar, holding a fruity drink. He didn’t notice Germany sitting next to him, who seemed to be much happier than him at the moment. The German did notice the Englishman, however. “Hallo, England!” Germany said happily, his hand on England’s shoulder. “Hey, Ger,” England simply said in response, looking at Germany with his tired eyes. “Have you slept lately? You look exhausted.” “Sleep is for the weak, Ger. I’ve taught you this for years now.” “I know, but you still should sleep. It’s good for your health.” England just sighed softly and took another drink of the beverage he had. Germany sat down next to him. “Eng, I’m worried about you. You only stay awake when something is bothering you… Do you wanna tell me what it is?” “Nothing is bothering me, Ger. I just have insomnia.” England smiled at the German, getting a soft smile in return. “Well, aren’t ya gonna order?” the Englishman then asked.  “Oh right! What did you order exactly? I’d like to try it.”  “I dunno. Shirley Temple, I think.” England shrugged. “Nonetheless, try it anyway. It’s not half bad for a bar like this.” Germany chuckled softly. He subconsciously grabbed England’s hand as he ordered the drink. Of course, they were a couple. Not just friends. They’d been dating for a near year now, and Germany was always the more sensible of the two, especially when it came to physical and mental health. This was just another regular Friday with these two. They loved each other, of course. It’ll hopefully be that way forever.

hi hallo! :)) soo since i got my hands on natal charts of some of my friends and relatives and musicians i love i cant help but see one thing ,the ones who have intense eyes or just like dark stuff dont have AnY scorpio placements so why do people only relate does stuff to dem like? im sorry for the question i was just having fun lookin and yeah love ya stay happy ya the coolest blog

continuing: like actually i forgot to add lol im clumzy;the ones that give off dat heated or just magnetic aura are the taurus placements ,the virgo and capricorn placements ,and some wild sagg for drama but in general dat whole OMG if a person doesnt have scorpio in his chart they dont know what sex and passion is a uhhh baby nope sit down there is so much flavor in all of the astro signs xoxo

Hello! First of all thank you so much for the sweet words dear, I really appreciate it! xx

Of course there is passion in every sign and everyone can have a very uniquely captivating aura! Needless to say, scorpios are wildly known for it since they do have the key words of intense passion and dedication and natural given secrecy due to their intense emotions written on them. Of course when someone’s top and most known characteristics are those, people will immediately associate scorpio with it. But I think usually people know that every sign has their own specific kind of passion, charisma and magnetism!

Luka! :)- I agree 100%. <3 <3 <3

Hello! I just want to say, I love your writing! I’m a newer fan, but I already love your stuff! I don’t really have any questions though... whatever. Bye! <3 Lots Of love! - Thank you for telling me you love it!!! I appreciate you! Welcome to my blog XD lol Happy to have you <3

I'm not sure if you would know but when do you think Loki's Main Route will come out?  I just finished Edgar's (🎉👏♥️😍😍) and I'm not sure if I should wait or if I should just play Jonah's route as if there is time.-I am going to guess around the end of Feb. Maybe the 20-22 since the new bonus stories end around that time XD Might be a few days before, but all the bonus stories will be released before the route is released I'm sure. OH! You can start a new route! Ikerev allows you to switch routes for free and it saves you spot on the old route! So whenever you want to go back, you don’t have to start all over again. I hope that helps!

I'm so excited for this. Can't wait! Thank you. I'm looking forward for it~ (๑>ᴗ<)و- I can’t wait either!!! I’m glad you’re excited! This is gonna be so much fun XD

I love you and your writing you are so amazing ❤❤❤❤❤- I LOVE YOU MORE!!!! AHH~!! Youre awesome! Thank you for the compliment!!!! <3 <3

Some of those prompts seemed a little assulty?? I'm sorry! E.g. kisses them to make them stop saying something; angry kisses (no consent...) -  These are prompts and not stories, so extrapolating saying its non-consensual is of your own imagination. “Angry kisses,” and “Stopping someone one from saying something with a kiss,” can be written a thousand different ways. Many of the prompts here have hundreds of different scenarios to be written around. However, If I write something, that is dub/con or non/con it will be tagged at the beginning of the fic so you can freely skip over it. :)

This will be exciting. I’m Looking forward to reading your stories. -I am perpetually excited as I tally up the smooches! I can’t wait to post them to see what you think! <3

This is a great idea and a big inspiration, thank you! - IM GLAD YOU THINK SO!!! <3 <3  You’re v welcome! XOXO

A Thousand Years (vampire!Jack x reader AU) - Part 7

Part 6 Part 6.5 Masterlist

“Here’s your lunch,” Jack says, handing her a small tote bag with a tupperware, an apple and a juice box. “Have you packed your water bottle as well?” “Yes, mum,” Y/N chides, taking the bag from him and tying it to one of the straps on her backpack so that her hands could be free. Jack puts his hands on his hips, giving her an unamused glare. She giggles, getting on her toes to press a kiss to his cheek. “You’ll be back at 4:30?” he says, holding her waist and leaning down to kiss her cheek as well. “Yeah, around that time,” she says. “Okay. What time will George be around?”

As if on cue, the doorbell rang.

“Now, I guess,” she laughs, walking over to the door as she slings her backpack over her shoulder. She unlocks it and opens the door to find her friend eating a bagel, cream cheese smeared on his face. “Don’t you look handsome…” she mutters sarcastically. “T’ank you,” he says with his full mouth. Jack comes to the door, avoiding the rectangle of sunlight that comes through the opening. “Oh,” George says, stepping in and allowing Y/N to close the door. “Hey, mate,” he says, reaching his hand out to shake Jack’s. “Morning,” Jack greets, giving him a firm handshake. “Y/N, do you mind if I finish this really quick?” “No, take your time.”

They chatted casually while George finished his breakfast. Jack learned that Y/N and George met during their first year of uni when they were in the same dorm. George moved out of the dormitories after the first year because it was too expensive and has been living in a co-op with some other lads that were still in uni and went to the same school or a different school and others that were working full time. “How many people live in your house?” “It’s a three bedroom house with five guys in it.” Jack wrinkles his nose at the idea. He had trouble living with Socks for a couple years and is still adjusting to living with Y/N; he can’t imagine what it’s like to live with four other people. “It’s not as bad as you think. Though we do have to call some of our girl friends to help with washing or something because we’re so clueless.My first week there I had to call Y/N to talk me through doing a load of laundry.” “Ah, yeah. She had to teach me how to use a Mac the other day.” “Oh, nice!” George says, taking another bite of his bagel and chewing it very casually, “How’s that going?” “Oh, I have no idea how to do anything still. I might just stick with the TV and cooking for now, have her deal with all that.” “Doesn’t sound like a bad combination. How’s cooking, you like it?” “I do, until I have to use garlic or onions.” “Mmm,” George hums, understanding as he stuffs the last bit of his bagel into his mouth. He chews quickly and Jack turns to find Y/N on the couch on her phone. “Y/N, love,” Jack calls, grabbing her attention, “Time for you to go.” “Okay,” she says, getting up and putting her backpack back on and stuffing her phone into her pocket. She hurries over to him, hopping on her toes to give him another kiss. “Have a good day, my love,” he whispers. He turns to George, “Have a good day, mate.” “You too,” he smiles, shaking his hand.

Jack steps back when Y/N opens the door to prevent himself from getting exposed to the sunlight that comes through the door and waves to her when she calls out one last goodbye.

“I’m gonna make a phone call,” Y/N says once George starts the car. She dials the number and brings her phone to her ear, listening as the ringing tone chimes in her ear. “Is this about finding Jack’s friend?” “Yeah, I found their old address in Liechtenstein, so I’m hoping I can find their old landlord and they can give me some information.”

George nods as he lowers the volume on the radio.

“Hallo?” a woman says on the other line after a minute of ringing “Um, hallo…spre-sprechen sie Englisch?” Y/N asks, speaking what little German she retained from her childhood trip to Berlin. “Yes,” the woman replies, “How can I help you?”

She sounds like she’s been speaking English for a long time, and Y/N is relieved a bit. “Hi, my name’s Y/N. What’s yours?” “Lotta. Nice to meet you, Y/N.” “It’s nice to meet you too. Um, Lotta, I was wondering if you could possibly give me information about a former tenant of yours?” “How long ago were they a resident here?” “They left in 1995 and possibly moved in around 1993.” She hears drawers opening and closing and papers being spread across the desk. “What is their name?” “Thomas Morrison. T-H-O-M-A-S-M-O-R-R-I-S-O-N. And, um, Poppy Hollingberry. P-O-P-P-Y-H-O-L-L-I-N-G-B-E-R-R-Y.” “Okay…please give me one moment.”

Y/N waits anxiously as the woman is silent on the other end of the line. She hums and mumbles to herself and Y/N’s heart drops a little when she hears a quiet “No” on the other end. “Ms. Y/N?” Lotta speaks after a few minutes. They’re almost to campus now. “Yes, I’m here.” “Hi. We do have record of a Thomas Morrison. I assume his phone number changed when he moved since it says here it moved to another country, but there is a job description here; a barista.” “Do you know what coffeeshop it was?” Y/N asks, the hope is her voice extremely noticeable. “No, unfortunately there is no indication of which coffeeshop it was. There are a few within a one-mile radius of this building, so I think it’s likely to be one of those.” “Okay. Okay, thank you so much, Lotta. This was a huge help,” Y/N says appreciatively. “Of course. I hope you can get in touch with him. Have a good day and good luck!” “Thank you, you too!” Y/N hangs up as George pulls into the parking lot on campus. “Sorry we couldn’t listen to music.” “No, it’s alright. You found something, though?” “I did! Kind of. I have to do more research, but I think the ball is rolling.” “Good, I’m glad something came out of it.” “Thanks. I really wanna do this for him. And I really hope I can do it before his birthday.” “I’m sure you will. When’s his birthday?” “June.” “Did you do anything this year?” “No! Because I didn’t know, he never told me and I never asked, which actually confuses me because I feel like the first thing you ask when you meet someone is what their birthday is. But I just never did and we never celebrated because ‘he’s had 167 of them, he doesn’t need another.’” “Nah, fuck that! You gotta do something special on birthdays!” he says as he pulls into a parking spot. “Have you got bills for the pay station?” “Yeah,” she replies, unbuckling her seatbelt when George stopped the engine. She hops out of the car and pulls her backpack over her shoulders before fishing her wallet out. They walk to the pay station and she pays half before they begin walking to the science building. “Let’s get this year done!”

“There ya are mate, a big heaping of your favorite food, just the way you like it,” Jack says as he sets Socks’ food bowl down in front of him. He had spent the day cleaning and doing some laundry, killing some time with some more Jeremy Kyle. It wasn’t until 4:00 that Socks began asking for food again, so Jack obliged.

However, Socks doesn’t eagerly dig in, he just stares at the food bowl before looking back at Jack.

“What?” Socks’s tail swipes back and forth across the floor. “Why aren’t you eating?” Socks just stares at him through green eyes. “Mate, it’s your food, the same food you’ve eaten for the past two years since I got you, what’s wrong?”

Socks meows this time, getting up and walking away. Jack is confused when he follows him up the stairs. Socks is, again, sitting in front of Y/N’s office. The door is open this time but Y/N forgot to draw the curtains shut, so sunlight filters through the window there. Jack stays in the dark hallway as Socks gets up and goes in, meowing.

“She’s not in there, mate. She’s at school.”

Socks doesn’t give up, meowing and circling the room. Jack huffs in annoyance, arms crossing over his chest. Why won’t he just eat the damn food? He goes downstairs and sits in front of the TV. He looks over to the stairs when he hears Socks’ footsteps and watches as the feline looks around more before walking back to the food bowl.

He gets up and walks over to him. “Why aren’t you eating?” he asks again. Meow. Jack thinks for a bit, trying to understand Socks’ behavior of not eating and looking around the house. “Is it because Y/N didn’t make your food?” Silence. “Mate, it’s the same food, I make it just like she does. Same amount of dry food and wet food.” Silence. “It’s the same food you’ve been eating for years!” Silence. “Fine! Starve for all I care!” he says exasperated. He huffs as he stands as he and his cat engage in a staring contest. In the back of his mind, Jack is thinking Socks is doing this just to be difficult since Y/N isn’t there to witness his mischief. He looks at the clock on the microwave and sees that it’s 4:15. She could be home any minute.

“Please eat, she’ll be home soon, she might get mad at me for not feeding you.” Exactly, Jack imagines him saying. “You’re a little shit, you know that right?” I know. “Please eat,” he says, sitting on the floor, next to him. No. “Why not!?” Because. “It’s the SAME. DAMN. FOOD.” I don’t care. “SOCKS LOWDEN YOU EAT THIS FOOD RIGHT NOW.” Since when was my last name Lowden? “I’m your owner, you have my last name and you will listen to me!” Make me. “Please, please just eat,” Jack says, lying on the floor. The door unlocks and opens and Y/N walks into the kitchen. “What is happening?” “Socks won’t eat and I’m trying to get him to-“ “What are you talking about, he’s almost done.” “WHAT.” Jack scrambles up to look and lo and behold, his cat is digging into his food bowl, his tail straight up and ears perked. Y/N gives Jack a skeptical look. “Your age is showing, honey,” she says, stroking his cheek, “You’re losing it.” “No, no! We had an argument, he wasn’t listening to me, I put the food in fifteen minutes ago-“ “Shhh, stop grousing, it’s okay. This happens when people age, they see things that aren’t actually there.” Jack harrumphs to himself, crossing his arms over his chest and scowling. Y/N giggles as she turns to put her tupperware in the sink. “Lunch was really good, by the way. Thank you.” He doesn’t reply, eyes concentrated onto the floor and Y/N presses a kiss his cheek. “Stop frowning, baby. I like your dimples too much.” He feels a smile through his features, the muscles in his torso relaxing and his hands reaching to hold her to him “Can’t stay too long,” she says, cuddling into his side as his arms wrap around her, over her backpack and around to the other side to rest on her arm, “I’ve got homework.” “Already?” “This is normal, Jack. I’ve got a few chapters to read and outline.” He huffs into her hair and she pulls away, “I’ll be down in a couple hours for dinner, don’t worry.” “Okay.” He watches her go up the stairs with her backpack and hears her office door shut.

Y/N pauses her music after a couple hours of studying, feeling her stomach rumble. She goes to the bedroom to change, pulling on one of her dad’s old concert shirts and sleeping shorts. She grabs a bobby pin and tucks it into her hair so that it doesn’t fall into her face while she’s eating. She hears “My Girl” by the Temptations playing from a speaker downstairs.

“I guess you say, what can make me feel this way? My girl.” She laughs to herself when she hears an extra voice, the one that belongs to her boyfriend, singing along. She stands in the doorway of the kitchen, taking out her phone and opening Snapchat to take a video as the last refrain of the song plays. “I’ve got sunshine on a cloudy day with my girl,” Jack sings and dances around with an apron tied around his waist, using the wooden spoon in his hand as a mock microphone as a pot simmers on the stove. “I’ve even got the month of May—AH!” He jumps when he sees her in the doorway and quickly hides the spoon behind his back. She giggles as she sends the video to some of her friends. “Darling,” he says bashfully and Y/N is sure his cheeks would be turning red if he were human, “You’re early, I’m not quite done yet.” “Did you get distracted getting your boogie on?” “No! I was just, you know, sampling the pasta sauce.” “Mhmm,” she hums, “what’re you making?” “There’s this thing called one-pot pastas, have you heard of them?” “Oh yeah, it’s pretty cool.” “Yeah! You’ve got food for the week now and I only have to wash one pot!”

She laughs again at his excitement over this concept of making pasta in one pot that yields a huge serving. He’s still raving about it as he makes her plate and Y/N just stands there. She stands there and smiles, loving that she’s able to see him get excited over something so simple. She wants to keep showing him things, whatever new inventions and innovations have come out since he fell off the grid. She wants him to be this happy and excited all the time. “…and dinner is served!” he turns to hand her the plate and sees that she’s looking at him. “What?” “Nothing,” she says, shaking her head. She walks to him and cups his face, looking into his eyes. They’re mild and soft, blue like the ocean before a storm. “I love you,” she whispers. He laughs a bit to himself, as if he finds it amusing that she’s telling him this now, “Because I cook for you?” “No, because you’re perfect.” “I’m far from it, love.” “No way.” “I am,” he states, setting her plate on the counter and turning away from her, “Before I met you, I…” “What?”

He closes his eyes and inhales deeply, forcing his lungs to take in as much air to its full capacity. “Jack, you’re scaring me,” she says quietly. She’s not stupid; she’s completely aware of what he’s capable of. Knowing that he might be telling her of some atrocity he participated in or committed frightens her. How could he hide that under his sweet face so well? Had he fooled her for the past eleven months? “I changed a human. And I’ve killed a lot of them too.” “Jack, you’ve told me, you only kill the other that hurt others-“ “I took a woman’s life and watched her become what I am,” he interrupts, emotions bursting forward. He never planned on telling her, he never planned on speaking of that woman again. “And I watched her become this angry, vengeful person that was so angry at me that she killed every living thing in her sight. Carol Grey, have you heard of her?”

Y/N’s quiet as she recollects the memories from her first year of psychology. Carol Grey was the classic example of someone who killed for sport out of anger. She was a notorious 1970s serial killer, acting quickly to kill almost thirty people within a three-week time period. Y/N begins connecting dots: Carol killed to spite a lover—Jack—and was found and killed by the Vampire Police Department of London. Peace was restored, but she’s mostly the reason why humans don’t interact with vampires much. “How could you keep this from me for so long?” she asks. “What was I supposed to say? ‘I’m the reason Carol Grey became a serial killer’?” “It couldn’t have been all you.” “She blamed me. I tried to stop her and she said ‘You made me this way. You’ve done this to me. I can’t kill you but I can kill others.’ Why do you think I tried ending it after we had dinner together for the first time? I couldn’t have you wanting me to change you then turn around and start killing people.” “It’s not your fault. You bit her, but you didn’t make her kill all those people. That was a choice she made on her own and she used you as a scapegoat. She was probably mad at herself for asking you to do it and that’s how she hashed it out.”

He doesn’t say anything, and Y/N thinks this is the most vulnerable she’s seen him since he was afraid to meet her parents. She holds her hand out. “Jack.” He looks at her open hand, but looks away. “Jack, take my hand. Please.”

He sniffles, appearing to reluctantly take her hand, but she feels his tight grip. He’s holding on with everything he has.  She pulls him toward her and wraps her arms around him so that he can rest his head in the crook of her neck.

“What you did and what she did are completely different. I understand why you think it’s your fault, but you need to know that it was a choice she made. You were doing what you thought was right and that’s what happened. It doesn’t make you a bad guy, it doesn’t make you an accomplice,” she whispers, pushing his shoulders gently so that she can look into his eyes, “and it doesn’t make me love you any less. And it doesn’t make you any less perfect to me.”

Jack knows what it’s like to have a crush on someone. But now, he knows what it feels like to look into a person’s eyes and feel their love for him. The stray movement of her finger tips on the back of his neck and on his shoulder spread a feeling of calm over him. The reassuring look in her eyes helps him understand that she doesn’t hold his past against him and he realizes he shouldn’t hold it against himself. He had been angry and upset for so long, almost shutting Y/N out only to let her in when she told him she didn’t want to be like him. He knows what it’s like to forgive himself after forty years of being single.

When he saw Thomas and Poppy together, he told himself that it was very possible he’d be their third wheel for all eternity, their single friend that just never settles down, because he couldn’t let what happened with Carol repeat. Y/N almost forced her way into his life, returning his jacket when she didn’t need to, pulling him into their first kiss, bringing him up to date with the times and showing him that life can be fun. He can’t help but feel so lucky that she came into the pub that night. He’s so lucky that she loves him, which is something he never thought he’d have.

“Sit with me while I eat?” she asks. “Yes,” he says.

They sit at the dining table together, chatting as Y/N eats. Their chairs are close together and Jack’s hand rests on her knee. As he watches her laugh at a joke he made, he realizes that to the dinner table or to the North Pole, he’d follow her anywhere.

One month later - November 2016

The weeks till the end of my contract flew by and a faster than I realised November had come. We tried to hide it from the kids but of course, something had to go wrong.

It was Tom who discovered it.

“Daddy? Where is Y/N/N?”, in one hand holding his Teddy Bear, he stepped inside.

“Tom?” I lifted myself on my elbow and blinked into the bright light.

“Y/N/N? Why are you in daddy’s bed?” Internally cursing I shook Jared’s shoulder.

“W-what, daring?”

“Tom is here.”

“What?” Still half asleep he sat up and rubbed his eyes.

“I had a bad dream daddy”, the toddler pouted.

“C'mere”, Jared mumbled and tabbed between me and him on the bed. Tom climbed on the bed and cuddled himself against his father’s chest.

In the morning, before one of my men could wake up, and sneaked out of the bedroom and into my own. After I got ready for the day I went down to make breakfast. A quick look at the clock told me, that Jared wouldn’t wake up in the next hour. He liked to sleep in when he had the chance. And with the best bedhead in the whole wide world came my moose down the stairs.

“Morning”, he said still sleepy.

“Good morning you too dear”, I laughed.

“Today isn’t your birthday, is it?”, he asked suspiciously.

“No, but it’s the 31st October. My last official workday!, I exclaimed happily. We had already talked about our relationship and came to the point that he wanted me to stay. Not as a nanny but as a girlfriend. His eyes went wide and grinning he threw me over his shoulder and spun me around.

“Jared! Let me down!”, laughing I hammered against his back. I screamed as he let me fall onto the couch.

“I have to tell my parents!”, I exclaimed.

“What?”

“I have to tell my parents why I can’t come home this Christmas.”

“Right”, his eyes were sparkling with excitement, “Should we call now?”

“It’s 11.21 am here, that means…”, quickly I calculated the time in my hometown, “it’s 6.21 pm there. Let’s call after breakfast. I get the boys.”

Luckily Tom couldn’t remember the night and that I was sleeping in his daddy’s bed. After an uneventful breakfast, the kids went upstairs playing and I got my laptop.

“Oh, Jared. My Parents don’t speak very much English. So I have to translate for you.

“Okay.” He nodded understanding.

At the beginning, I tilted the camera to me so my parents couldn’t see Jared.

“Elisabeth? Kannst du mich hören? (Y/N? Can you hear me?)”, my mother asked.

“Hallo, Mama. Ist Papa da? Ich möchte euch jemanden vorstellen (Hello, mum. Is dad there? I would like to introduce you to someone)”, I told my mother.

“Moment, Ich hole ihn eben (One moment, I’ll get him)”, she said and walked away to get my dad.

I could hear her calling my father and dragging him out of the garage. Patiently I waited till the both sat on the couch and looked into the camera.

“So wen wolltest du uns so dringend vorstellen? (So, who do you wanted to introduce to us do urgently?) ”, he asked after he greeted me happily.

“Meinen neuen festen Freund (My new boyfriend)”, I turned the laptop so they got a good view on both of us.

Both, my mother’s and my father’s jaw dropped about and inch. Mum found her voice faster than dad.

“Ähm, h-hallo. Nett dich kennen zu lernen. Ich bin Kerstin”, she stuttered. Jared shoot me an insecure glance.

“Oh, right. Jared, that’s my mother Kerstin, she said, it is nice to meet you”, I translated quickly for my confused boyfriend.

“Hello, Mr and Mrs Vogel. I really appreciate meeting you. You have a lovely daughter”, he blubbered out, obviously nervous.

“Er freut sich auch darüber euch zutreffen und meint, dass ich reizend bin”, I explained to my parents. Out of the nowhere, I heard one of the boys crying. Both, my and Jared’s head shoot up.

“I’ll go, darling.” He gave me a peck on the cheek and rose up to look after his sons. My parents completely forgotten, I gazed after him till he was gone. At least until my father cleared his throat.

“Er ist dir wirklich wichtig oder? (He really is important to you, isn’t he?)”, my father asked.

“Er ist wunderbar Papa. (He is wonderful, daddy.)”

“Wir sind froh, dass du glücklich bist, Schätzchen (We’re glad you are happy, darling)”, said my mother with a warming smile.

I explained to them, that I couldn’t come home this Christmas. My Parents were both sad, that the wouldn’t see their eldest daughter but I assured them I would visit them as soon as possible.

“Everything alright with the boys?”, I asked my boyfriend who came padding down the stairs behind me.

“Just the usual ‘I wanna have what you have’”, he reassured.

“I have to tell Melanie!”, I exclaimed all of the sudden, “She kills me if she finds it out trough Twitter. But at least we don’t have to worry about time zones this time. She lives in San Francisco.”

“So, she speaks English”, Jar assumed.

“Yes, and now hush! I wanna surprise her.”

“Y/N/N?” Melanie’s short brown hair stuck out in every direction.

“Morning Mel. I hope I didn’t wake you”, I asked with an evil grin.

“Bite me. What do you want at 11 am on a holiday?“

“I’m making sure that you don’t get arrested for murdering someone on Christmas.”

“What?”Confused she pinched the bridge of her nose.

“Well, if you don’t wanna meet my boyfriend, okay. See ya.”

“Boyfriend? Who?”, now I had her by the balls.

“I think he is old enough to speak for himself.” Like I did it with my parents, I tilted the camera to reveal Jared.

“You are fucking kidding me.”

“Actually I’m Jared”, he joked.

“I-i know. Wow. Eli, du musst mir erzählen wie du dir den geangelt hast.” I was so glad that she said the last thing in German.

“Thank you, Mel. I am not going to translate this. See you when you found your verbal filter.” I finished the conversation and he hung up.

“What did she say?”

“Something dumb and inappropriate.”

We spend the rest of the day decorating the house. In the evening Jared, Shep and Tom went out to go ‘candy-hunting’ Jared was dressed up as a zombie, Tom as a spider and Shep was a ghost.

(She said (Y/N/N), you have to tell me how you caught this one.)
