Gossip Girl- Bad Romance Chapter 6

Breaking news, E got shot by an unknown assailant. As if that wasn’t worse, both his parents were found shot and unconscious at his father’s apartment. Their bodies were discovered last night by a neighbour who called the nearby hospital and the cops onto the scene.

Also, word has just gotten in that E’s older brother who was placed under intensive care for years passed away yesterday. According to the doctors, his parents were declared dead on arrival and now they are fighting to save Eren’s life. An investigation has been launched into the crime to establish who was responsible for the crime. 

Stay tuned for more updates. Here is to wishing E a speedy recovery and expressing my condolences on the passing of his family. What a sad day. The rest of the gang are at the hospital as we speak. They have been there ever since the news broke. 

XOXO,

Gossip Girl

Sukuna was in tears as he sits at the waiting room area. The others have been coming in and going so as not to clog up the waiting room area and also to give Eren breathing space. Even Lelouch who had issues with Eren for years came over to drop some flowers for him as well as a card with a Get Well Soon message for him. Zoro sighs and comforts Sukuna. Now was not the time to beef anyone. This shit could have happened to anyone of them.

It was just Sukuna, Zoro and Sanji that were in the waiting room. Everything just happened suddenly. Just when they were trying to sort out the legal drama that has been going on, this happens. And now people are blaming Zoro and Sanji, claiming that they ordered the hit when in reality, neither of them would sink to that level. The only one that would try such amongst them is Sukuna and even he did not even do that. Sukuna may be a selfish nutcase but deep down, he loved Eren a lot. So losing Eren would be devastating to him.

It was someone else. Someone with an agenda against Eren that they know nothing about. One thing Zoro knows is that everyone has a past and no matter how hard you try and run away from it, it will surley find you. Case in point, Sanji’s recent issues with his dad and the Charlotte family. His own past with Griffith that caused him and Sanji to break up for the first time. Now it seems that it is Eren’s turn and who knows? Sukuna may be next after this. Regardless, Zoro was always prepared to fight whatever battle life throws at him.

“W-Who could have done this…. I…I do not believe it was murder suicide…” Sukuna splutters as he keeps crying. Sanji pats his back. “It’s okay Sukuna. Eren is gonna be alright.” he says in the most reasurring way possible.

Sanji and Eren always had a really complicated relationship with one another. They both had demons to deal with. Secondly, they envied each other, Sanji envying Eren’s freedom and Eren envying Sanji’s popularity and looks. 

The doctor then comes to meet them. “Eren is alive. No worries.” They all heaved a sigh of relief. “Can we see him?” 

“He is still unconscious. Will take him a while to wake up.” They nodded and decided to leave and head home.

Hours later, they return and are taken to Eren’s ward. Eren was wide awake and looking around in confusion. Sukuna immediately rushes over to him and hugs him. Eren is taken aback. “S-Sukuna w-” He looks up and is stunned to see Sanji and Zoro who rush over to him and hug him as well. 

Eren soon bursts into tears. “Guys….” Sanji smiles. “Welcome back bitch.” Eren just laughs and wipes his tears. They break away and sit next to him. “Everyone was worried about you. Including Lelouch.”

Eren was shocked by that revelation. “Lelouch?! After all the pain I have caused him.” They nodded. “Wow….I…I dunno what to say.” Zoro grins and gently pats his head. “You will be fine.” Eren just sighs. “I dunno what came over me. I think my greed and ambition got the better of me. I meant well yes but my execution….”

Sanji takes his hand. “We are only human.” was all he could say. “Yeah. But that does not mean that what I did was right.” Sukuna nods. “I will add myself to this because I contributed to this mess man.” 

“He finally fesses up.” Zoro says in a teasing tone. “Oi!!” Sanji and Eren laughs. This has always been the four of them’s dynamic in general. So seeing that old spirit kind of return is huge. 

“Thought you guys could use a nice coffee break.” Lelouch announces as he arrives with the rest of Aogiri all hodling coffee for themselves and the others. “Thanks mate.” says Sukuna as he gets up and grabs two Starbucks coffee cups for himself and Eren.

Eren smiles once he sees Lelouch. “Lulu where did that spark come from?” he asked. Lelouch then grins and thinks to himself. “I guess bossing those two-” points at Light and Natsu. “-works wonders for me.” The others laugh. 

“Who let Lelouch cook?” Sanji jokes. “I know right?” says Lelouch as he takes his seat. “I guess this was a blessing to teach us all a valuable lesson.” says Light. “Rule number 1: always appreciate the little things.” says Natsu. 

“True.” It was then that the police arrive. Zoro and Sukuna go to attend to them. “You called sirs?” says Sukuna. “Yes. We have done the investigation. Now we do not think it would be wise to approach Mr Yeager for questioning since he has only started recovering. But we can give you some information about our observations.”

“Go ahead.” says Zoro. “We investigated the family’s history and Mr Yeager’s history to determine whether there was a mental health-related history since we initially suspected a murder suicide case.”

“Now we gathered what happened to his late brother Mr Zeke Jaeger who suffered a head trauma as a result of the football that smacked his head when he was 8. Mr Eren was just 6 at the time. Mr Zeke got better at some point only for him to suffer a series of seizures. He got diagnosed with severe epilepsy and dementia.”

“His parents got divorced when he was 11. So he spent more time with the dad right up until his career began. The brother was with the mother who was taking care of him and eventually developed depressive symptoms as a result of the stress according to her medical records.”

“I am sure Mr Yeager never told Mr Benard about the times his mother would show up and cause a scene.”

“Actually Sanji did tell me about an incident where they went shopping in his hometown and Eren’s mum shows and throws their shopping all over the floor and starts causing a scene and soon gets arrested for it. That is why Eren never did a concert in his hometown. He tried to avoid his mother.” says Zoro.

Sukuna was stunned by this. “Wait…w-was it the mother that did all that?” The police sighs and nods. Sukuna was deeply lost for words. Eren overheard the conversation and had a sad expression on his face. “I hated talking about my family for years because of all the bullshit involving mum. She… She had deep mental issues for years.”

“I…I still love her but it still hurts that she ended up that way. Dad had to divorce her to protect us and now t…” He then breaks down in tears. Lelouch hugs him and comforts him. “I never speak about my mum because I went through a similar thing with her.” Lelouch confesses. Everyone was shocked to hear that. 

“She burned down our home when I was 4 and died inside the house fire and I was forced to live with dad and my dad was a shitty father as well. So I ran away with my little sister to stay with one of my uncles and the rest is history. So me being a star and making money and shit… I did it for my sister.”

Eren nods. “Why is life so fucked up?” he asked. “I honestly dunno man.” says Lelouch. Natsu rubs Lelouch’s back. Once they finished discussing with the police, Zoro and Sukuna join the others.

“Jesus fucking Christ.” says Sukuna. “The bombshells were way too heavy.” says Zoro. “At least we now understand Eren’s side of things and now Lelouch too.” 

“Wait…what do you mean by Lelouch?” Lelouch then tells them his backstory. “Holy shit..” says Zoro. “Why does everyone in here have shitty parents?” Sukuna wonders out loud. “Because dem old folks worry more about the money or rather themselves that they ignore us kids in the process.” 

“Fuck them.” says Light. The gang soon leave and head out. Well, everyone minus Sukuna. “I thought I was gonna lose you cupcake.” he says. Eren smiles. “I miss hearing you call me cupcake.”

Sukuna chuckles. “I was a terrible lover to you my love.” he says. “Well, I was an asshole to everyone plus you so we are even.” Eren then takes Sukuna’s hand. “Can we start all over? Is that possible?” Sukuna grins. “You bet it is!!” He then comes closer and kisses Eren on the lips.

Can I please get some hcs about Donna trying to court/pine for someone who’s more timid and shy than her, or at least is afraid of Donna bc she’s a Lord and has all these rumors about her (some true some not), and is worried about being killed or worse everytime they’re in the room together

(Oh god, this is such a disaster combo. My poor wife 😭)

Donna Beneviento x VERY Shy! Reader

Donna first notices you from a distance.

You're charming, kind, and so sweet to others! It's obvious that you're very shy, but that doesn't stop you from reaching out a (very gently trembling) hand when someone needs your help.

You're clearly working through some anxieties of your own, and at first Donna finds herself watching you because she relates to your experiences. Unfortunately, you don't have an Angie to help you like she does, so you seem to be even more timid than Donna is.

Eventually, though, Donna starts to fixate on the small gestures that you do.

The way you smile when you think nobody can see you is just heartbreakingly cute, and she wishes you had the courage to smile like that all the time.

Sometimes, you giggle so hard, you shove your face in your hands and try to stifle the noise so it doesn't bother other people.

One time, on a very rare sunny day, you tilted your head up towards the sun, closed your eyes, and simply basked in the warmth. You reminded her so much of the flowers in her garden, that she was immediately hit with the desire to see you relaxed and safe beside her favorite blooms.

What can I say? She just thinks you're neat 💓👉👈

Eventually, she decides it's time to get to know you better!

Angie hypes her up too! Donna should get out there and meet you organically! You and her are so similar it'll be easy to get a conversation started!

AHAHAHA no

Angie's sort of right. You and Donna are very similar. Too similar. Because when Donna gathers enough courage to leave the house to try to meet you in public, she spots you, panics, overthinks her approach, and darts around a corner. She winds up following you around all day, while Angie heckles her to JUST SAY HI ALREADY.

But...uh... here's the thing...

You're shy, but you're not oblivious. Donna Beneviento, the Lady of House Beneviento, one of the Four Lords of the village is stalking you through the streets.

You are ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED.

The word around town is Lady Beneviento tortures her servants. Apparently she makes them suffer through horrifying hallucinations before she rips them limb from limb, stitches their soul back together, and turns them into living dolls?

The minute you realize what's going on, you IMMEDIATELY make your way back home, lock the door, and try your best not to have a panic attack.

This goes on for several weeks. As you slowly leave the house less and less, Donna becomes more and more confused and concerned. Are you sick? Hurt? Is something wrong?

Finally, one day you hear a knock at the door, and open it to find a lonely little doll in a wedding dress standing at your feet.

Ah. So this is how you die.

Angie is here to check in on you! Apparently Lady Beneviento has noticed you aren't feeling well, and wishes you a speedy recovery!

You are speechless. After a minute, you try to say a quick thank you and usher the doll off your porch, but Angie is Not Having It. You are shaking and obviously scared of her, and she's going to do her best to fix it.

Despite her loud, wild personality, Angie can be pretty charming when she wants to be. She continues to offer pleasantries mixed in with remarks about how she (AND DONNA) hope you're doing well, and how she (AND DONNA) want you to know that if there's anything you might need, she (AND DONNA!!!) would be happy to send some staff your way.

That's... Not what you were expecting.

It takes a moment for you to reassess the situation. Donna Beneviento, despite the rumors, has never openly hurt anyone that you know of. And while she very obviously has a living doll--something that you are confused and still a little nervous about--Angie doesn't seem malicious.

And when Angie gives a little goodbye curtsy with stiff joints and a tiny wave as she skips away, you find yourself a lot less scared of veiled Lady in the Manor and her living doll.

The next time Donna spots you around the Village, she's aware that you are frightened of her. After talking with Angie, they've both resolved to try to give you some distance. While Donna is devastated at the thought she might never get to know you like she wanted, she wants you to be comfortable and feel safe.

Maybe one day, you might get to be friends, but it's clearly not in the cards for now.

Just as she is about to walk away, you turn to look at her. There's a split second where you obviously don't know what to do, but then you absolutely stun Donna by just... smiling at her. The same smile you give when you think nobody can see you.

You even pluck up the courage to offer a her small, shaky wave.

Donna waves back, happy beyond belief, while Angie practically screams back her own hello.

(...It's a start 🥰)

Chapter 6 - The Truth Behind the Scenes

Yue Wuhuan thought that his eyes would be gouged out by Xianzun soon, and he was shaking from fear.

After Song Qingshi checked him over, he was puzzled: "Are you cold?"

Yue Wuhuan shook his head stiffly.

"If your eyes are not uncomfortable, we can treat them later." Song Qingshi judged the injuries according to its severity. He returned to the table and took off his gloves, picked up the spirit bead, and walked back over. "I found a white powdery medicine around the edges of your nails. After a preliminary inspection, I determined that it contained Deer Spring Grass and Confusion Scented Flowers, which have a strong aphrodisiac effect. In addition, I also found plant ingredients in the incense on your clothes and feather skirt attracts cats. This is the reason why the demon tiger attacked you at the banquet."

He found out. . .

Yue Wuhuan thought in despair.

This was the loophole that he had found when searching for the edge of the Acacia Seal's control. Slaves can't kill themselves, slaves must obey their master's every command. But it was also the master that was happy to see the slave perform an unbearable performance, and was also happy to see the slave played with until death.

All he was able to get were aphrodisiacs that he extracted from psychedelic ingredients. He refined it greatly to make it more likely for animals to lose their sanity.

Therefore, he calculated the time and wrapped the medicine in wax pills to delay the onset of the drugs in the demon tiger's body, and then prepared the smell on his body to attract the monsters. After the atmosphere on the court reached its peak, the demon tiger rushed out under the stimulation of the drugs. He was definitely going to be chosen as its prey. He pretended to be absent after taking the aphrodisiac and took the initiative to step forward. The guests thought it was a show arranged by Jin FeiRen and applauded.

Jin FeiRen was far too proud to do anything and had already found a new favourite anyways. He would never interfere with the entertainment of his guests. Even a little hesitation could mean the demon tiger would completely lose control and tear the guests to pieces.

Yue Wuhuan carried out this plan with the determination to die, and never thought that the truth revealed because he survived.

In Golden Phoenix Manor, if a slave was found to show signs of disobedience, he would be severely punished. What's more, what he did was calculated something behind his master's back, which was absolutely against the rules. . . But what about this?

Yue Wuhuan’s flustered heart gradually calmed down and he recalled that when he first became a slave, because he was unwilling to yield and his wood-type spiritual root was suitable for a speedy recovery, he suffered all the humiliation that the world could inflict under the control of Acacia Seal. He was forced to endure all kinds of unbearable postures, forced to admit that he was more lecherous than the most lecherous flower girl in the brothel; because the beasts thought that he never reacted sufficiently during sex, they used countless kinds of drugs to transform him into having a very sensitive physique until even the friction of ordinary cloth will make him extremely uncomfortable.

Every time he thought that he reached the limit of this hell, he would always see that hell went so much deeper. Finally, after realizing that his despair and resistance would only make those people happier, he gave up these meaningless struggles as well of the idea of getting rid of the Acacia Seal.

His body was so dirty that he just wanted to destroy it. . .

God knows that when the demon tiger rushed forward to tear his body apart, he didn't feel any pain, only utter bliss.

Whether it's plucking out his eyes or cutting off his limbs to make him into medicine, whether it's being thrown into a brothel and toyed with by thousands of people, or thrown to a beast for fun. There wouldn't be any punishment in this world that would make him feel pain.

Yue Wuhuan narrowed his smile and stopped pretending. He looked at the spirit bead coldly and provoked disrespectfully, "Now that you know, what are you going to do?"

Song Qingshi declared with certainty: "Someone wanted to harm you!"

Yue Wuhuan failed in his provocation, and almost missed a breath, thinking that he had misheard: "What?"

Song Qingshi felt that his reasoning was sound. Although he didn't read novels very much, his senior sisters said that the protagonists were good people since the bad guys acting as the protagonist couldn't pass domestic publication censorship. The system's introduction mentioned that the protagonist suffered a miserable fate. These injuries now must also be related to the original plot.

Based on the social news he had read, 80% of the people in Golden Phoenix Manor were jealous of the protagonist's beauty and favour, and want to destroy him. They must have used medicine on his body and nails! So after careful consideration, Song 'Holmes' Qingshi concluded: "I suspect that it must have been the person who dressed you that day. I will find the murderer later and give you justice."

"No." Yue Wuhuan felt that the corners of his mouth were twitching. He didn't believe that the great Xianzun could be so stupid, but the other party seemed to be very serious about making him believe that he was stupid. He didn't know what expression to put on. Finally, he answered stiffly, "There's no need. . ."

When Song Qingshi saw this kindness, he was more sure about his guess of the protagonist. He put the spirit bead into Yue Wuhuan's hands: "This thing belongs to you, so you can put it away."

Yue Wuhuan realized that the spirit bead had not been marked with new spiritual thoughts, and he was dumbfounded.

"I studied this stuff," Song Qingshi explained, "The Acacia Seal involves a spell which is decently complicated. Medicine King's Valley has no way to solve the curse. I have asked the valley servant to go to the Night Rain Pavillion to offer a reward. The master of Night Rain Pavillion said that, although the method of explaining spells is not expensive, it's rare, and it will take some time to hear back."

Yue Wuhuan was stunned for a long time after listening, and asked in a quiet voice: "What price do I need to pay?"

Song Qingshi had been helped by many people, and no one has ever asked him for something in return. He has also helped many people and has never asked for repayment.

In his eyes, the Acacia Seal is a sin against basic human rights. It was the source of the protagonist's suffering is, like the shackles on the feet of a bird. After saving the bird, it is a matter of course to untie the shackles, and it was not worth mentioning.

So he replied casually: "You can focus on recovering and just get well with peace of mind."

The valley servant came to report that the medicine boiling in the yard was almost ready.

Song Qingshi hurriedly went out to check, lest the effect of the medicine would not achieve its desired effect.

Yue Wuhuan looked in disbelief at the spirit bead in his hand, and his noisy thoughts became more confused.

In the world he knew, things that don’t cost anything were the most expensive. . .

Medicine Master Xianzun was even more well-known in the cultivation world for being cold-blooded and cruel. He never knew the meaning of the word 'mercy'. What did he want from him? His body? His life? Or what about his soul? Yue Wuhuan thought for a long time, and couldn't help but chuckle. He tightly grasped the spirit bead in his hand, determined to make a desperate move. If it meant he could get rid of the shackles, he would do anything, even if he had to sell his soul to the devil. . .

When Yue Wuhuan saw Song Qingshi bringing the medicine in, he pondered for a moment about Song Qingshi's impression of him and what he wanted from him. His expression quickly switched to a well-behaved and weak look. He carefully raised his eyes and glanced at him secretly, showing just the right amount of gratitude, leaving himself at the mercy of Song Qingshi's treatment.

This patient was super obedient! He did whatever the doctor told him to do. No matter how disgusting the medicine tasted, he would drink it in one sip. No matter how painful or irritating the needle was, he wouldn't make a sound! He would also thank the doctor in a gentle voice. Song Qingshi took care of him with a sense of accomplishment. He hoped all the patients in the world could be as well behaved as him.

The physical regenerative skills of the wood spirit root were amazing, and the wound on the shoulder of Wuhuan would scab over in five days.

After Song Qingshi checked him over, he was allowed to get out of bed. He was ordered to spend more time in the sun and Song Qingshi proceeded to prepare for the next treatment.

The Medicine Master, whether it was the original body or the current Song Qingshi, does not care much about what he wore. Therefore, the Medicine Master rarely had shark silk or ice silk. The hospital gowns prepared by the valley servants were made of ordinary cotton, which was comfortable for ordinary people, but Yue Wuhuan felt uncomfortable with the friction of the fabric, so he dared not stray too far from the palace. He only took a few steps then stopped.

At night, Song Qingshi noticed that he was walking strangely, so he went to check on him. He didn't expect the slight touch to his collarbone. He hadn't gone down yet and he was still making a fool of himself.

Yue Wuhuan looked at Song Qingshi's stunned expression and those clear eyes that held no evil intentions. The shame that hadn't appeared for a long time came out. He couldn't help avoiding those gentle hands and curled up into the dark corner.

The contrast between purity and sex, clean and dirty, brought out the unbearable reality.

Yue Wuhuan repeated the truths he learned a long time ago in his heart over and over again.

Even if the Acacia Seal was lifted, he couldn't erase the past. . .

Song Qingshi pulled his hand back in embarrassment. He looked at the person hiding in the dark, opening his mouth, not knowing what to say.

Yue Wuhuan quickly realized that what he did was wrong. The other party had long known that he was not a clean person, and it would only be more embarrassing to try and cover it up. He quickly collected himself, and his figure slowly unfolded from the dark depths.

When he smiled and raised his eyes to look at Song Qingshi, there was a thick lust in his eyes. He licked his lips, put his hand on his belt, and said the shameful words that he was used to: "It's so hot, Xianzun wants to see look at this slave's body?"

Rather than letting someone discover he was embarrassed by his body, he would rather take the initiative to show the embarrassment. No matter what kind of contempt and humiliation he endured, as long as he convinced himself that he was a shameless bastard, his heart wouldn't be sad.

Song Qingshi woke up to what was happening before he started to strip off his clothes. He rapidly lowered all the curtains to block the spring scenery in the room.

Yue Wuhuan's ambiguous voice stopped abruptly.

Song Qingshi calmly said: "It's too late, the patient needs to rest."

Yue Wuhuan sat blankly on the bed, watching the faint figure outside the bed's canopy putting out the luminous beads, and then lighting the incense burner. The faint medicinal scent mixed with the smell of agarwood swept over, letting his feverish body gradually cool down. He slowly lay down, curling up again in the lonely darkness.

He suddenly realized that no one would be ravishing him tonight. There was no need to speak disgusting words, let alone force himself to flatter. There was no messy smell in the air, only the unspeakable clean air, which made his always vigilant mind begin to grow dizzy. His eyelids could not stay open, and he dragged into his dreamland.

There was no hell in this dream, only the fragrance of the magnolia tree outside his childhood bedroom window. . .

His body gradually relaxed and he immersed himself in this sweet dream that he hadn't experience for such a long time.

. . .

Song Qingshi stood silently outside the door for a long time, lost in his thought.

Once he was sure that Peaceful Soul Fragrance had played its role, he went back in. Holding the luminous beads, he gently opened the curtain, sat on the side of the bed, and looked at the various problems hidden in this scarred body again with his spiritual thoughts.

After a while, he withdrew his thoughts and quietly looked at Yue Wuhuan’s face. His eyes were clenched shut, and the completely relaxed youth's charming attitude had faded away. He was like a sleeping wild cat with his claws sheathed. Letting his vigilance fade away, as if forgetting the pain he had suffered and showing his true colours.

Freedom, pride, stubbornness. . .

His life should never have been what it was now.

Song Qingshi gently pulled the blanket around him. He brushed his tousled long hair carefully behind his ears, and promised in a low voice:

"I will heal you."

summary: Todoroki meets the new baker, and makes a discovery.

pairing: midoriya izuku/todoroki shouto

words: 3128

based off of this lovely art by @03xlimit!

also on ao3!

Until the day Todoroki Shouto meets Midoriya Izuku, he’s not aware that he even has a favorite kind of flower. Strange, he knows. As a florist, he’s spent his entire life surrounded by them (some dying, others blooming, but all of different colors and scents that fill the bustling Todoroki’s Garden), but a specific kind has never truly struck his fancy. In fact, when he finally informs Fuyumi of his discovery, the day after his first encounter with Midoriya Izuku, she says with a laugh, “They’re not even real flowers, Shouto. They’re weeds.”

Less than a day ago, he would have agreed with her.

(Midoriya Izuku, as he came to learn, changes a lot more than his opinion on flowers).

~

He’s opening shop for the day: unlocking the front door, flipping the door sign so that open faces the street, and stepping outside, when he notices him. There, standing bashfully in front of the store window, unruly green hair framed with early morning light, is a boy. He’s holding a bread basket full of pastries, all wrapped up in shiny plastic, and he smiles when he sees Shouto.

Shouto’s grip on his watering can slips, just slightly.

“Um, hello!” the boy says, a little too loudly. He holds up the basket awkwardly, one arm going to hold his head from behind, and Shouto’s eyes travel from his impossibly green eyes to his other arm, which—why is he wearing so many bandages? “I just, uh. Wanted to drop these off to you…”

Naturally, the first thing Shouto thinks is, we didn’t order any bread today. And then: that’s really nice of him. Finally: he’s cute, too.

He elects that none of these thoughts are appropriate to say aloud, so instead he lets the door shut behind him, the tinkling of the bell fading away as it closes. He secures his grip on his watering can before it can escape his slightly sweaty palm and undoubtedly be his downfall. “Thank…you?” he finally says, and winces internally. Social interactions…

The boy, however, doesn’t seem to mind. In fact, his face brightens, a radiant smile crinkling the corners of his eyes and scrunching every one of his freckles in a way that his not good for Shouto’s breathing. “You’re welcome!” he says, and drops his hand from behind his head. “My mom always says that making good first impressions with your neighbors is important, so I’m delivering little gifts to everyone on the street. I think Yaomomo and Jirou’s bookstore is next, and then Kirishima’s motorcycle shop…I’ll probably have to make an extra loaf or two for Kacchan, even though he’ll probably throw it away again…Oh! I’m Midoriya Izuku, by the way.” He says everything in a rush, words pouring out of his mouth so fast Shouto is swept away.

Shouto blinks. “Todoroki Shouto,” he says after a moment, still stunned by the life Midoriya seems to emit from his every fiber of his being; his hands are constantly moving, the bread basket swinging this way and that, his mouth animated and excited, curls bouncing slightly. “Are you from the new bakery that just opened next door?”

“Yes!” Midoriya beams. “One for All Bakery, at your service.” He holds out the basket. An invitation.

Shouto accepts. He also gives into the temptation to see if Midoriya really has that many freckles—it has to be a trick of the light—and takes a hesitant step forward, nearly tripping over his own welcome mat in the process.

Way to go, Shouto.

Midoriya, if he notices, says nothing, only moving forward to meet Shouto halfway, arm outstretched. Shouto takes the basket from him gingerly, fingertips brushing Midoriya’s, and even though Midoriya’s bandages are the only thing that technically meet his skin, Shouto swears he feels the warmth of the Midoriya’s hand beneath his own. He ignores the swooping sensation in his stomach and gestures to Midoriya’s arm vaguely. “Is your arm ok?”

Midoriya smiles, and the way he fiddles with his hands is one of slight embarrassment. “Oh, this. Yeah, it’s fine! I work around a lot of ovens, and—well, let’s just say that some of those metal baking sheets can get really heavy.”

(For a moment, Shouto thinks of boiling water and purple-blue bruises and the sharp smell of bile, and is relieved to hear that this does not seem to be the case for the sunshine boy before him). He feels something loosen inside of him.

“But yeah, that’s that. I really do need to be more careful, especially since we just moved here from our old location and we need to get business going. And all that,” Midoriya finishes, scratching his cheek. He peeks up at Shouto through his eyelashes, and—in the name of all that’s holy, why is he so pretty.

Shouto almost allows a smile to make its way onto his face, and he readjusts the basket on him arm in a way that could be taken as a nervous gesture. “Well, I wish you a speedy recovery,” he says softly. “Thank you for the bread. It looks delicious.”

The tips of Midoriya’s ears flush a faint pink, and it’s such an endearing sight that Shouto’s almost-smile becomes a real one. “You’re welcome!” he says, beginning to turn away hastily before Shouto can explain that he didn’t mean to sound like he wanted to conversation to end. “If you ever need anything, please stop by. We’re always open for a cup of coffee!” He turns around, walks a few feet quickly, then stops. He pivots and faces Shouto, ands adds, blush intensifying, but grin wide and lovely, “Bye, Todoroki-kun.”

And with that, he hurries away, leaving Shouto standing in front of his family flowershop with a basket full of hot bread and a head swimming with green eyes, green hair, and a sunlight smile.

He walks back into his own store, places the pastries and the forgotten watering can on the counter quickly, and wonders just how, exactly, he is going to survive with Midoirya Izuku next door. Fuyumi walks in from the back and finds him like this behind the register, with hands folded over his green apron in his lap, eyes staring at a pot of marigolds to his right. “Hey, did you water the plants outside?” she asks, and Shouto looks up.

“I will,” he says, before continuing with his musings. Fuyumi gives him a look, then notices the bread basket.

“Hey, where did those come from?”

“Bakery next door.” Theoretically speaking, if he says they’re always open for coffee, then lunch break qualifies as ‘always.’

“Oh, the new owners?”

Lunch, then? “Yes.”

“Ooh, nice.”

Shouto looks up and sees Fuyumi already unwrapping one of the plastic wrappers on a loaf of bread. “Is it socially acceptable to drink coffee during lunch hour?” he asks.

~

He’s standing in front of One for All Bakery with a bouquet of sunflowers when he realizes that this was probably not a good idea.

For one, Fuyumi had been way too excited than strictly necessary about this whole…situation, eagerly selecting from their best blooms so that Shouto could walk them over to the Midoriya’s. She had given him a pat on the shoulder, a whispered “good luck,” and a wink, all three of which he had no idea how to interpret.

Second, now that Shouto is actually here, red sneakers shifting on the cobblestone, he is not so sure that it is coffee he’s really after.

However, Fuyumi insisted, and he’s on lunch break right now, so. He supposes he could get a little something. Supporting local businesses and all.

Business. Right.

He pushes open the door and steps inside. Almost immediately, he smells the slightly sweet aroma of baking bread, sees the dark wooden paneling of the floor and the well-loved leather couches with throw pillows strewn artfully across their cushions, feels the comforting air of warmth that feels especially nice now that autumn is almost here. His eyes trace the red, blue, and gold painted walls and land on the glass display cases that line them, featuring cakes iced with swirling designs, dainty little cookies that seem to be woven with lace, and sweet bread bursting with crème and fruits.

All in all, the entire affair is something Shouto enjoys very, very much.

Or perhaps it’s actually the smiling face behind the cash register, freckles dotting his cheeks like stars as he places an intricately frosted cake on a glass stand. His tongue pokes out a little, his brow furrowed in concentration, and Shouto thinks it’s the cutest thing he’s ever seen. At the sound of the bell tinkling when Shouto walked in, he says, without looking up from his task, “Welcome!”

Shouto steps forward, mouth suddenly dry. “Hello.”

Midoriya’s head perks up at the sound of his voice, and he flashes a smile so radiant Shouto has to resist the urge to squint. “Oh, it’s you!”

Shouto, ever a man of many words, nods. “Yes. It’s me.”

“What do you think?” Midoriya grins, gesturing to the shop around them.

I think you’re beautiful Shouto wants to say.

“It’s very nice,” is what he says instead. “I enjoy the atmosphere.”

Midoriya finishes placing the cake atop the glass display and turns his full attention to Shouto, much to Shouto’s pleasure and distress. “I’m glad! Mom said my fanboy side was showing when I picked the color scheme, but I like it, too.” He props his elbows up on the counter and rests his head between his heads. “So, may I get you anything?”

Shouto blinks, then offers the flowers as an answer. “These are for you,” he says. “As a…welcome to the neighborhood thing.”

Midoriya removes his hands from his palms to form a V over his mouth and gasps softly. “For me?” he asks, eyes wide. “They’re beautiful.”

Shouto wills the flush in his cheeks to go away. “Well—” for your family he means to say. “Yes,” he says. “They reminded me of you.”

There is a pause.

His mouth seems to be acting separately from his brain today. Fantastic. To cover up his panic, he jerkily holds out the flowers to Midoriya, willing him to just take them, please.

Midoriya blushes all the way to the tips of his ears. “T-thank you,” he stammers, reaching out to take them from Shouto. “I—I’ll go get a vase for these!”

He dashes somewhere into the back storage room, and just beyond, Todoroki can see a glimpse of the kitchens. He is left standing there for approximately one minute and nine seconds with nothing but his own heartbeat thundering in his ears, and he now understands why Fuyumi wished him good luck.

Before long, Midoriya has returned, a pretty glass vase in hand. He places the sunflowers in them carefully, with as much focus as he had the cake a few minutes earlier. While he rearranges them, Shouto tries to calm the butterflies in his stomach, with limited success. “Thank you so much, really,” Midoriya says while he moves a stem over gently. “You didn’t have to.”

“No, it’s ok,” Todoroki mumbles. “I—we—wanted to.”

Finally, Midoriya deems the arrangement satisfactory, then looks up at Todoroki, their height difference made more apparent by the counter between them. “As my thanks, you can have anything you want on display, free of charge!”

“But you’ve already given us the bread,” Todoroki protests. “I couldn’t possibly—”

“Oh, that was nothing,” Midoriya waves his concerns away. “It’s my treat. Really.”

Todoroki debates whether or not he should argue further, but the conviction in Midoriya’s eyes is almost scary. “I think—alright,” he says reluctantly. “What do you recommend?”

With a grin, Midoriya moves a little further down the counter, and procures a slice of red-and-white colored cake. “One of my personal favorites has always been the strawberry shortcakes,” he says, holding up a slice for Shouto to try.

Shouto breaks a piece off with his finger and slips it on his tongue. It’s delicious.

“It reminds me of you,” Midoriya adds with a wink.

Shouto feels himself begin to spontaneously combust.

Midoriya laughs a little breathlessly, red cheeks betraying him. Shouto isn’t much better off. “Just kidding! Here, let me get you a box…”

He places the nibbled slice on a paper napkin, and then, to Shouto’s shock, bends down to remove the entire remaining cake from the display and set it into a large paper box. Shouto begins to shake his head. “Midoriya, please, there’s no need for that much—”

Midoriya slides the box over to him, a ribbon already tied on top. “No, really, please take it. As a thank you.”

Shouto looks helplessly at the cream-colored container, then at Midoriya, who stands resolutely with his hands pressed on the counter. Blue and black eyes meet green, one pair unsure, the other unwavering. He swallows.

“Ok,” he finally says, because he’s a sucker for sunshine boys who give free cake and smiles like it’s nothing, and takes it gratefully. “Thank you,” he adds again, because he doesn’t think he’ll ever be able to stop saying it.

Midoriya flashes him that grin that makes Shouto’s heart do cartwheels. “You’re welcome.”

He’s spared from saying anything stupid or helplessly enamored when the door opens behind him, and he hears a group of customers making their way to the register. Midoriya’s eyes shift to the newcomers, and Shouto lets out a breath.

“Thank you,” he says, one last time.

Midoriya’s lips curve into a smile, and he nods. “I’ll see you around, Todoroki-kun.”

Shouto leaves All for One Bakery feeling very faint.

When he returns to relieve Fuyumi for her lunch break, she raises an eyebrow at him. “You just keep bringing back free food,” she notes. “Any reason for that?”

When he doesn’t respond, she laughs, eyes way too knowing for Shouto’s taste.

“Holy crap, there’s a whole cake in here!” she exclaims a little while later, after opening the box. Then, while Shouto very pointedly prunes some stray thorns off their newest shipment of roses without responding, she says, “You should really consider marrying the new baker boy.”

He accidentally shears off an entire rosebud.

~

Finally, the day ends. Shouto is exhausted. An hour before they were going to close, they had received a massive rush order for a client’s wedding, and there was still so much work to be done. He locks the front door with a sigh (Fuyumi had gone home ahead of him to prepare dinner for Mom). First thing tomorrow, he would have to contact their second supplier, because their first choice didn’t do deliveries on Sundays. Then he’d have to figure out if he could call Iida’s Express to help him deliver, because there’s no way he’d be able to do it alone…unless he could somehow haul a thousand flowers by himself across town…maybe Yaoyuzuru and Jirou would let him borrow their truck…

“Todoroki-kun?”

He nearly drops his keys, and turns to face none other than Midoriya Izuku, for the third time that day.

“Midoriya,” he says, trying not to let his surprise show. “Hello.”

“Hey,” Midoriya says, voice a little rushed. His hands are behind his back as he speaks. “I just wanted to thank you again, for today. So many people complimented your gift.”

Shouto coughs slightly. “Midoriya. I gave you some flowers. You gave me an entire cake and a basket of bread. I should be the one thanking you.”

Midoriya shrugs, as if it had been nothing. “No, no. I actually,” he says, beginning to turn a shade of red that resembles the potted amaryllis hanging in flower baskets above them. It makes the green in his eyes stand out even more, which isn’t fair. “I also wanted to just…” He moves his hands in front of him, and there, in his palms, is—

“I don’t know much about flowers,” he says, self-conscious. “But these grow in the yard behind our place, and I just thought they were nice. I know they’re probably weeds.”

He presses a crown of woven daisies into Shouto’s hands. “For you,” he says, flushing even darker.

Shouto blinks. Midoriya shifts from foot to foot, looking like he’s waiting for something. Shouto figures it out a second later, and slowly places the crown atop his head in a daze. “I…this is…”

“I know, I know, it’s cheesy,” Midoriya smiles sheepishly. “But my friend Ochako thought I should find a way to talk to you again, without free food, and you run a flower shop, and I thought you would look really pretty with daisies in your hair, and I was right—oh wait. Did not mean to say that out loud. Wow, ok. Wow. I’m sorry.” His eyes are wide and his voice very high. “I’ll just leave now.” He begins to turn away.

“I love it,” Shouto blurts. “This is the best gift I’ve ever received.”

Midoriya freezes mid-movement and glances at Shouto out of the corner of his eye. “You must have never gotten any good gifts before,” he says, voice tentative, but slightly teasing.

Shouto looks at him—and he means really looks—and makes a decision. He removes the daisies from his head, taking care not to jostle them too much, then walks forward. He places them on Midoriya’s crown, fingers brushing his curls. They’re just as soft as it looks, he thinks in wonder.

Midoriya’s lips part, his hand moving to touch the petals gently. His eyes are inquisitive.

“I wanted to see how you looked, too,” Shouto explains, a smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.

Midoriya lowers his head and slowly smiles back. “And?”

Shouto looks at his head haloed in the evening sun, a mirror image of this morning, at his right arm still wrapped in bandages; how Midoriya, standing this close, actually has freckles that run down his jaw and kiss the tips of ears, how his laugh is so bright Shouto wants to reach out and taste it, like leaves to the sunlight.

“Daisies are actually my favorite kind of flower,” he finally answers, and Midoriya’s tilts his head just a tad bit to the right. A question. The flowers shift slightly with him, endearingly crooked in a mess of beautiful green curls. Shouto is glad to see that his face isn’t the only one burning.

“Really?’ Midoriya asks, a head crowned with daisies and eyes full of light.

“Really,” says Shouto.

~

The next day, Midoriya brings two cakes, much to Fuyumi’s delight.

Shouto gently places a white-and-gold flower behind Midoriya’s ear as thanks for his troubles, and Midoriya's shy smile after he does so is more beautiful than any bouquet Shouto has ever seen.

AO3: http://archiveofourown.org/works/10702710/chapters/25867851

Chap Summary: This is a pretty smut heavy chapter. Also, full disclosure there is dragon fucking ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

A gorgeous gazebo stands proudly amidst the flowers and trees in the garden. The floor sports the demon’s fallen clan seal. Gorgeously intricate, made of several different types of stone. The sun has just finished rising in the sky. The demon has prepared breakfast for you, but you’re not feeling hungry. You don’t often feel hungry for food anymore. So it’s growing cold, but Hanzo doesn’t seem concerned about your lack of appetite.

You’re still riding the cusp between inhuman and human. Not quite supernatural yet. But are losing several of the needs and habits that made you mortal. However, you’re still unable to do several of the things that would make you a succubus. Can’t draw energy on your own, still weak in body, and can’t even partake in the more fun perks like seeing memories through blood. Utterly useless.

And then every day you’re waiting for it. The sickness to come back. If the last succession of times it was brought upon you are any indication, the next time is going to be the worst of them all.

You’re sitting cross legged on the ground on a plush pillow. Hanzo is sitting on the other side of the small table, lounging, and looking absolutely relaxed. The dragons are at the entrance of the gazebo. Just as laid back. The least tense you’ve ever seen them be. Asleep with their heads resting on the last step leading into the gazebo. They almost look like stone. Completely unmoving, not needing to breathe in their slumber. You’ve grown to admire them, powerful spirit dragons that are monsters in their own right.

“Tell me pet, which one was most memorable?”

“You wanna give me some context?”

Hanzo huffs and rolls his eyes. Annoyed, because he feels you should know what he’s getting at. So he will be blunt.

“Which monster did you enjoy fucking the most?” Then he grins, “Besides me of course.”

You feel an embarrassed heat flood across your face.

“They all had their own unique enjoyable aspects.”

Hanzo abandons his relaxed position so he can sit up, reach across the table, and run a nail across your cheek. You find yourself leaning into it, enjoying the simplicity of the touch.

“My dear pet, this blush is ludicrous.”

“I’ve never talked about those things before. It's not something you brag about if you wanna keep making money off of conning people.”

He looks you up and down, “Afraid the common folk would think you are despicable?”

“Yeah, well, it’s a lot harder to convince people to give you money if they hate your guts and are aware you’re a lying whore.”

“A clever way to make a living I suppose,” he takes hold of your hand, brings it to his mouth. Pricks your index finger with one of his canines. Then sucks on it as it starts to bleed.

As Hanzo’s eyes flutter closed you can see them roll back slightly. With his eyes being one color, this isn’t something you used to always be able to notice. But by now you’ve had plenty of chances to be able to pick out the subtle pleasure response, and now it’s easy to see. Regardless of the alluring face he is making, you can’t stand it when he does this. Making sure you are painfully aware that he is sifting through your dirty laundry.

He is searching for a specific memory. Your first conquest. He finds him; a vampire. A cruel man who you just barely end up getting away from. A tough challenge for someone who was so young and inexperienced. He watches as the vampire has you pinned to a wall. Hips and ass a blur with how fast he is fucking you. His teeth sunk into your neck. Blood coats one of your shoulders, rolls down your arm, and drips onto the floor. You look pale, like you’re a step away from deaths door. He has to pull his consciousness out of the memory before he gets to intent on doing the same thing. He’d like to learn more. Straight from the horses mouth. There’s always time for fucking.

“That first one, a vampire? He was very possessive.”

You stay silent. But your first thought was, you would know.

Hanzo can sense that the vampire was unhappy when you left. Looked for you for months, “Do you think he still hunts for you?”

“He was very focused, yes. But I’m sure he’s found someone else to push around by now. There are plenty of warm bodies out there.”  

It doesn't take long for your finger to stop bleeding, so he bites it again. One of the only perks of being a demon that has seemed to manifest itself consistently. A speedy bodily recovery from wounds and abrasions from the soreness that comes from especially rough days and nights.

“Answer my question. There has to be one that crosses your mind far more than the others. One that you favored and replayed while you touched yourself during lonely stretches of time.”

“Fine. If I had to choose… I’d stay… the wraith was probably one of my favorite monsters I’ve fucked,” you chuckle, “Or rather, that fucked me.”

The demon is intrigued, lets you know to be quiet by placing a finger against your lips as he recalls the images. Oh. Hanzo can barely make out the creature itself. But he can see you. Every slick orifice crowded by a thick smoky tendril. You’re completely overwhelmed. Your body contorted in a most uncomfortable way. Arms being held behind your bad by more tendrils. Wrapped around your torso. All of them in a constant state of motion. Tears stream down your cheeks. How lovely.

“Were you ever the boss of any of these situations?”

“Yes, sometimes I had to take the dominant role. You have the movie reel in your head; look for it. Not all monsters are so eager.”

Taking note of your demanding tone, Hanzo bites your finger especially hard this time, and you come off this ground by an inch or two.

“Do you expect me to sift through all of it? Be specific, pet.”

“Look for the merman.”

“Merman? Mermen of old were typically hideous.”

“Hmm, not this one. He was very cute and sweet.”

“Cute?” He says the words with disgust, “Sweet?”

“Yes. He was an environmentalist and was making it difficult for certain companies to fish, and they wanted him dead.” You smirk, “So they hired me.”  

Hanzo closes his eyes, takes a deep breath in through the nose, and starts looking. When he finds the memory he’s looking for, he expels air from his nose and shakes his head. The merman is cute. An innocent looking creature. And there you are, not much younger than you are now. Removing your clothes at the edge of the water in a secluded cave, and the merman is stunned by your forwardness.

He stays a safe distance away from you. He is wary. Knows that mercenaries are being sent to pacify him. But as your weapons get thrown far away from you, and you start to crawl into the water, the merman is becoming more and more curious. Eventually, he ends up meeting you half way. So that you’re both about hip deep in the water. That’s when you start to softly kiss him. It is all very sweet.

“Outstanding, and you were of no help to ones who hired you.”

“Nope.”

“Amazing, absolutely exceptional.”

“Love your sarcasm.”

Hanzo narrows his eyes, “Have you not been paying attention, pet? I am not being sarcastic.”

He wraps his hand around your throat. Uses his hold to pull you forward over the table ’til you’re face to face with him. Hanzo kisses you tenderly. Letting your lips naturally fall away from each other. He slips his tongue into your mouth, slowly runs it along the roof of your mouth. The dragons are starting to stir. You can hear them shuffling around. Emitting off low growls. Hanzo pushes you back an inch so he can bore his gaze directly into your eyes.

“I am having trouble figuring out just what you have not fucked.”

You couldn’t possibly figure out what possesses you to say this. It just flows out of you naturally. Once a freak, always a freak. You side eye the dragons, “I’ve never fucked a spirit beast before, are they capable?”

Hanzo’s grip on your throat tightens, and his whole body becomes coiled. He is immediately on board. You couldn’t back out of this now, even if you happened to change your mind. And he is thinking that he’s about to be in for a hell of a show.  

“Oh, they are capable, pet. They are going to fill you up nicely, stretch you open." He caresses your face and gives you a forceful kiss, "I hope you are ready. Crawl, get on your hands and knees.”

He lets go of your neck, allowing you to do as you’re told. You crawl onto the floor of the gazebo. Obedient and eager, you spread your knees a part before Hanzo has to demand that you do so. You lay your face against the stone and look back at him, “Like this?”

Hanzo bites his bottom lip and nods. A view of your backside is just what he needs for this. As the dragons start to realize what they are being given, their tails start to flick back and forth wildly. They’re prowling around you now, whining out of excitement and anticipation. Their voices start to echo in your head. For us? We can breed the slut?

Hanzo says something to the dragons in Japanese. You don’t understand it, never had the time to learn new languages. But you can pick out a demand in any language. The dragons get close to you, start sniffing your hair, and nuzzling at different body parts. For once you had been wearing actual clothes. Loose comfortable bottoms and a light cotton t-shirt. The dragons are about to make quick work of both.

One of the dragons teeth nips your thigh as it takes the fabric and starts to rip it from your body. The other one does the same with your shirt, its teeth tickling at your back. The sounds and the forcefulness of your clothes being ruined and torn a part are getting your body to a pleasant boiling point. It’s this boiling that always stays with you during sex. Making every moment heightened, sensitive, and fulfilling. Another manifested demon perk.

Now you’re completely exposed. The dragon who ruined your pants nudges its muzzle into your sex. Aggressively pushes up into you, causing your knees to lift up off of the ground. You brace yourself on your forearms and elbows, trying to keep yourself from toppling over. The dragons tongue rolls out of its mouth, snakes over your folds. It feels long and slippery, and easily slips inside of you. Your body lurches at the feeling.

It continuously pushes in further and further, endless. Until it starts to feel like it’s too much. It’s so warm, foreign, and constantly moving. Twisting and making waves inside of you. You whimper and whine. Arch your back, trying to bear the feeling. The dragon coos into your psyche, you taste delicious, so sweet, so soft. You look up to the other one who is looming over you. An erection bobbing up and down between its legs.

The sight of it gives you a giddy feeling nervousness. It’s not exactly long, but fuck it’s thick. Bulbous in shape and thickest around the shaft. The head isn’t much smaller, but will be easier for you to take. This certainly won’t be the first time you’ve taken something with such an intimidating girth, but it’s been a while.

You get up onto your hands as the dragon’s tongue continues to flick and spiral inside of you. You look back at Hanzo to see him back in his lounging position. One knee up with his arm resting on top of it. His tattooed arm resting on the inside of his thigh. With a tight grip over his crotch. A sinister grin spread across his face as he’s massaging his hardening erection.

The dragon abruptly pulls its tongue out of you, leaving you feeling full of wetness from its saliva. It goes back to pressing its muzzle into your cunt, sniffing aggressively. The beast lets its tongue flick out briefly to rub against your clit. It’s smart, and it’s teasing you. Making your body squirm. Your hips lift and fall. Then that damnable tongue pulls back so it can slide in-between your folds. Move up and settle over your clit. Starts to flick and roll against it. Building instant pressure that ends up getting expelled just as quickly as it came.

As you come your back arches, and your hips gyrate. The sight of you as your muscles twitch and your mouth lewdly hangs open, has Hanzo pulling out his cock so he can leisurely stroke it. His gaze is locked on your body as the dragon pulls its snout away from your sopping sex.

You hear a low grumble come from its chest as it mounts you. The beasts cock easily finding its way to your entrance. The fat head rests just against it, not quite pushing its way in just yet. The dragon rumbles and whines, its hips rubbing against your back side.

It feels warm, and its skin is scaly and smooth. Glides seamlessly against your own. The dragons bulky body nearly dwarfs your own. Its thick muscle toned legs are placed on either side of your face, blocking your view of Hanzo.

For a moment you’re upset about this development. Wanting to be able to watch his reactions. Wanting to see as he jacks himself off to the scene of you getting fucked by his dragons. But then the dragon starts to enter you, and you forget all about your blocked view. All at once you’re stretched wide open, and now you desperately need something to cling onto. So you opt in for that leg that is blocking your view. Now thankful that it is there.

A long winded whine gets forced out of your chest as the dragon starts to sheath itself in deeper. You shift underneath it, trying to spread your legs wider. You want to take more of it in, feel even more of a stretch. Your walls are already pulsating. Large heart beats for every bit of the cock that gets pushed inside of you.

Hanzo isn’t lounging anymore. Your whines and moans are so loud that they are reverberating through the garden. Your tight cunt is lewdly stretched open before him, and that nearly has him coming already. Hanzo can sense the dragon starting to lose its patience with the slow entry. He could scold the beast, but he won’t. He’d like to see how well you handle the abrupt rutting your about to get.

Your vision turns into a bright white blur as the dragon shoves itself in to the hilt. Immediately starts fucking into you in short and strong bursts. Your whole body is lurching forward with each thrust. You can't keep your torso up anymore. So you let it slump back onto the ground and keep your grip on the dragons leg. An orgasm hits you immediately and almost with out any build up or warning. You’d whine or moan or cuss; hell you’d do all of that at the same time, but you can’t seem to find your voice right now.

The only noises that are making their way out of you right now are guttural, wet sounding throat noises. The dragon comes, and your insides are being continuously filled. You can feel it pooling inside of you. It’s too much and starts to seep out, dripping onto the ground. The beasts knot starts to form, locking itself inside of you, and the other dragon starts to whine. Becoming impatient with the smell of come flowing through the air.

The word, thank you, goes from one ear to the other. But that wasn’t for you.

Hanzo purrs, “You are welcome.”

The neglected beast is ready the moment the other one pulls out of you. You had watched as it walked around to your back side, pre-come leaking out of its twitching cock. You only have a momentary feeling of emptiness before the second dragon is mounting and plunging itself inside of you.

You are not afforded the soft, gentle entry the other one gave you. Not that at this point you really need it. This time, the rutting sounds are much lewder. You’re so full of slick fluids that every thrust is making salacious sounds. You let yourself become completely limp. Just become a large piece of wet fuckable putty. You’re face planted against the floor of the gazebo, practically drooling.

You’ve zoned out. Giving in completely to the overwhelming sensations that have taken over your body. Before you know it, you’ve got more come coating your insides, struggling to find room. Your whole body is trembling, quivering. But you're not done being used yet. Hanzo’s face comes into your line of vision. He speaks to you while the beasts knot is still swollen inside of you.

“Are you still with us, pet?”

You’re barely able to nod. No verbal answer comes out. Hanzo reaches under the beast and whips the hair away from your face. The hair that has become stuck to your forehead through the fray of things. And you hadn’t noticed any of it ’til now. Hanzo barks another order at the dragon, and it pulls out of you. Goes and joins its counterpart back at the entrance of the gazebo.

Hanzo positions himself between your spread legs. Places both of his hands on the lower portion of your ass. Glides his thumbs up and down over your sloppy cunt. You look back at him, holding your bottom lip in your teeth. You’re so damn sensitive and even the smallest of touches feel overwhelming. He pushes his thumbs inside of you, uses them to spread you open, so he can really see the mess his dragons have left in you. Shimmering pearly white come seeps out of you. Drips and adds to the small pile that’s formed on the ground.

“Tsk, tsk. So filthy.”

He pushed his thumbs in deeper, and your walls clench around them. Already bouncing back from the brutal stretch that they had endured. Hanzo lines himself up and slides inside. Swiftly spanks one of your cheeks.

“Get up, pet. Push back, I want to see you milk my cock.”

It’s not as difficult as you think it’s going to be to get back up onto your hands. You’ve got an incredible amount of stamina. And feel like you could go for a whole other round after this one is over. You’re unafraid, not ashamed to keep his gaze while you lift your hips up and down. Hanzo looks intoxicated, eyes half lidding, a lazy smile on his lips. His nails dig into your hips, drawing thin lines of blood across your skin.

Your orgasm has a slower much more pleasurable build this time. Taking its time while it starts in your belly, seeps downward, and turns into energy directed entirely at your used walls and flushed clit. It feels so good and adds to the continues growing heat under your skin. Hanzo holds you flush with his hips while he comes, small moans and growls for each spurt that is left inside of you. He blissfully sighs, runs a hand down your spine, and weaves his fingers into your hair.

“My darling pet, you never disappoint.”

💕:3

send me 💕 to see the moment my muse realized they were in love with yours | accepting!

She couldn’t exactly figure out what was going on. All of the girls were too crowded around Justin for her to see what was happening, but from her friend’s noises she had to assume it was nothing good. Everyone was just lucky Eli had something to do with her sister today so she didn’t have to interfere, and Nozomi was holding both Umi and her back, her phone at the ready for the unveiling while she tried to reassure them that everything was fine in the clubroom. Though it was plain to see that Kotori was more uneased and nervous by this sudden activity, Nozomi softening up at her demeanor. “Don’t worry, Kotori, we’re not hurting him or anything. We’re just giving him a little makeover, that’s all!”

“W-Well, I just want you guys to be careful with him, okay? I don’t want him hurting his jaw again, you know…” Her concern is voiced to the whole crew, looking from Nozomi to the small crowd of noisy girls behind her. It had been a month now since he had moved in to her house, and his recovery from his jaw injury was anything but the speedy result they wanted. He could mumble words to her without his mouth hurting too much at least, but his meals had only increased from gross smoothies to mashed potatoes and bananas at most, and he still groaned a bit whenever the smallest amount of pressure was put on his cheek. Though she was grateful for any sort of improvement, she knew Justin was still taking it pretty hard. So, she had hoped all of these activites she presented and all of these interactions with the girls would help ease his mind, but if it just ended up with him getting hurt again.

“Kotori, stop babying the boy!” The third year’s voice pierced her thoughts, letting out a small, surprised gasp as she saw that Nico and Honoka actually turned around to pay attention to her. “Don’t worry so much; he’s not as fragile as you think, and we’re not as rough as you presume! We’re angelic school idols with delicate touches and soft caresses — !”

“And the only time we were near his face was when Maki was tying the bow tie and —”

“Honoka, you idiot! It’s a surprise; you can’t just shout out key details like that!” Nico looked like she was suddenly ready to choke out the leader for speaking, getting in front of her and trying to cover her mouth, but Honoka was ready to block, holding the smaller girl’s hands down. “What, we’re done anyways, so what’s there to hide? Besides, I think it’d make Kotori much happier to just show her now!”

“Well it better be good, making Kotori worry her head off and making both of us just stand out in the hall like this!” Umi shouted, shoving through the small gap between Nozomi and the door, though she paused when she actually saw Justin, a blush crawling up her face before she facepalmed as she sat in a chair, no other words spoken. All of the sudden excitement certainly made Kotori more curious than concerned for the time being, Nozomi seeing that as her opportunity to drag her into the room. “Ah, you guys are done? That’s great; then I guess the recording’s started now~” She chimed over Nico and Honoka’s commotion, moving out of Kotori’s way so she can have space to enter the room. 

Upon seeing her, Hanayo and Rin smile wide, Maki looking less enthused and more a bit proud of herself, before all of them turn towards her while trying to keep Justin hidden behind them. He was obviously sitting down or something, because he wasn’t like a tree in a field of flowers behind them, and she could see mostly black and a hint of red… “Kotori Minami, today is your lucky day!” Nozomi called from beside her, causing Kotori to jump and face her, cutting off her own surprised squeak at the phone thrust in her face. At this point, Nico had gotten done berating Honoka about the importance of executing a great surprise, and seized her opportunity to speak in front of the camera. “Today, we are gonna show you the amazing transformation of your friend, Justin! He came to us a poor, disheveled mess, barely having an ounce of fashion sense in his body. But now here he stands before you, a completely changed man, mostly because of the direction and artistry of yours truly — !”

“Get on with it already, we don’t have all day.” Maki interjected, arms crossed over her chest, with Justin letting out what sounded like a mumble of agreement. Nico went to badmouth her like she had Honoka, but, probably because of the video being recorded, she stopped herself, composing herself and just letting out a slight “Humph!” before waving her hand at the first years. All three girls look at each other and, with Rin leading it, they count down to a grand flourish of fistfuls of confetti being thrown as they stepped back, revealing —

Justin in a suit. Kotori recognized it instantly as Eli’s Love Wing Bell costume, knowing that would be the only one that would even remotely fit his stature, but still…Before she can question it, though, Justin stood up, taking a step or two towards her before extending his hand. Looking at him, his cheeks had started turning as red as the flower on his collar ( she was surprised that thing was still on the outfit ), and she could feel her face growing hot as well while her eyes widened, but a small smile managed to form on her face at seeing his own embarrassment. The moment it faltered was when he inched a bit closer, bowing in such a gentlemanly way, before tilting his when he was at her height. “Hello, princess.” He tried to say as clearly as possible, obviously feeling a bit of pain flare up at his attempt as he winced, though he still struggled with an elegant smile on his face…

And she flew into a giggle fit right in front of him, ruining the whole act. All of the other girls were oohing and aahing at how well he executed everything ( though Umi had found refuge in a corner of the room so she didn’t have to look at the embarrassing scene taking place ), but then all of them are stunned into silence by the seamstress’s sudden outburst. So is Justin, but just the sight of her smile has him out of his confused state and beaming in moments, his cheeks and jaw both feeling like they were on fire, but he didn’t care in the slightest. “You like it?” He mumbled, quieter than before, Kotori automatically trying to calm herself down once his lips started moving so she could hear him. “Oh, I love it!” Is her reply, in the loudest voice she can muster, wrapping the boy in a hug, “I’m so glad I was worried over nothing; this surprise is wonderful! But you have to tell me how you fit into that outfit.”

“That was due to Nico’s handiwork, of course!” All attention is back on the small third year, who is all smiles at being presented the chance to brag a bit. “We weren’t going to use this old costumes anytime soon, so I decided to start little project with our new manager! Eli is the tallest out of all of us, so I decided to use her outfit for the job. It took a bit of adjusting with the extra fabric and bringing up the hems, but it was all such a brilliant idea —!”

“That Honoka and Justin planned out. Nico only intervened when she when she had the idea of using the Love Wing Bell costumes instead of spending a whole weekend out shopping for a suit.” Maki interjected yet again, stepping a bit forward, “Though, trust me, I offered to take him to the tailor where my papa gets his suits done, but everyone said that that was too much.”

“Well that was too much, Maki. We were trying to much Kotori feel better, but going all the way to do that would’ve been a bit extreme, nya.” 

“Though, I suppose it would’ve been nice to see Justin in his own tailor made suit. I bet he would’ve looked splendid in one!” Rin and Hanayo throw in their two cents before the first years and Nico start their own conversation circle, Nico thinking that maybe nobody appreciated her contribution to the little project. Though it has Kotori a bit stunned, Rin’s words hanging in the air for a bit, quirking a brow. Had she been upset lately? Nothing had really bothered her lately, she supposed, and everything at school, work, and home were fine. Justin’s moving in certainly wasn’t it, she was sure of that —

“Kotori?” The mumble brought her from her thoughts, looking over at Justin, the concerned glint in his eye as he struggled to keep his smile up making her chest tighten, “What’s on your mind?”

“O-Oh, nothing. This was all just so much; I’m really grateful, but you guys didn’t have to do any of this.”At that, his smile softened and calmed, concern being replaced by an almost visible warmth. It was always that smile that made her relax, the anxious moment passing before it even had time to settle in the air. The atmosphere surprisingly stays calm as Honoka approaches with a bit of pep in her step like always, “There’s the smile again! No uptight smiles; just a bunch of happiness, okay?” 

“Eh? Honoka, I don’t —?”

“Well, your smiles just seemed tighter lately, like you didn’t want to show anyone something. And I didn’t want anything like that to happen again —!” At that, the leader takes her hands and squishes her best friends face a bit, making the other girl giggle in response, “— Justin noticed something was up too, saying that you’ve been more skiddish and out of it at home, so we both got really worried and wanted to make you feel better so we could see your pure, happy smile again! I’m glad it worked, aren’t you?” She turned to Justin for affirmation, who in turn just smiled and nodded, the lowest chuckle coming out of him while his cheeks turned a light pink. 

Had she really not noticed something like that? Kotori didn’t even realize she had been making such a face as to warrant such worries from her dearest friends, and now all of this was to cure her unknown sadness? Her cheeks flushed with embarrassment at the thought of something so unbeknownst to her, “I-I’m sorry you guys. I didn’t even notice I was doing that myself, and I didn’t mean to give you all cause for concern.”

“Don’t apologize.” Is Justin’s next murmur, a finger going up to move a few strands of hair from Kotori’s face before massaging his jaw hinge a bit, though still keeping up his gentle smile. “Yeah, don’t be sorry! We’re just glad to know you’re okay!” Is Honoka’s own interjection, before the sound of footsteps approaching them made them all look at an amused Nozomi and a sheepish Umi right behind her. “Ah, all of this is so sweet! This is definitely going in the group slideshow!”

“Ah, not the one on the ranking website, right? I don’t want people to see…All of this…”

“Hehe, you just don’t want anyone to see your sulking face~”

“I-I wasn’t sulking! I was just —”

“Hiding your face from all the embarrassing cute stuff?”

“Yes, exactly, that was — W-Wait, Honoka!” 

The leader couldn’t help but giggle as Umi’s face turned a bright red, Nozomi grinning as they started to go back and forth, recording every little yell. Kotori stepped forward to go and stop them, but, knowing that there wouldn’t be too much trouble because of it, she left them be, hands clasped together in front of her as she watched her best friends. After a moment, a tapping on her shoulder brings her gaze over to Justin again, his phone held up for her to look at, “Good surprise?” She couldn’t help but giggle, knowing his jaw must’ve been tired from all the smiling and talking, nodding her head, “Great surprise. Thank you again, Justin.” Justin lets out another small laugh, before he goes to type out another message. She watched him the entire time, noticing every little expression change, meeting his eyes occasionally with a small smile. He did honestly looked so cute in that get up; she would have to make him his own outfit sometime soon for a special occasion like his birthday or if anything exciting came up. He was honestly so sweet to her by participating in all of this too; to all of the girls, really, since she assumed they sort of forced him into this plan. 

His next message kind of confirmed that thought, taking the phone thrust towards her to read. “Yeah, that’s what Honoka thought. She’d said that you’d really appreciate some big thing like this, though she suggested some sort of surprise party or a shopping day. I thought those ideas were fine, and the girls liked them too, but Nico said it wasn’t “extravagant” or “special” enough, so she suggested that we make you something. Honoka and Umi thought a dress was a good idea, but then Nozomi got this smirk on her face and just looked at me. Then she gathered the girls together and left me out of the conversation, and then…this. I really wasn’t expecting to wear this. But it was all for you, so I’m bearing with it.” Reading it all, she can’t help but laugh again, though this time in a more jovial tone. It did really sound like all of them; she could picture that exact conversation going down at the clubroom table and everyone’s expressions at each point in the conversation. At his last sentence, though, she quirked a brow again, looking up at him, “You didn’t have to agree to wear it though, Justin. If you aren’t comfortable in it ---”

A finger pressed to her lips halted her words, Justin turning his own bright pink at the action, before taking the phone back to type out another message. Kotori’s honestly a bit stunned for a moment, her fingers lightly touching her lips in slight disbelief, before the phone in her face grabbed her attention once more. “Well, like I said, it was for you, so I didn’t mind at all. I was really worried about you, and I would do anything to see you smile; it’s the least I can do with all the things you’ve done for me.”

Much shorter than the last message, but it packed more of a punch, the unspoken words warming her heart and expression softening to one of slight awe. He was honestly too sweet to her sometimes, she didn’t know how to respond to something like that. Thinking back to that day when he got hurt, he said he would try and pay her back for everything she was doing for him, even with her saying that it wasn’t much trouble to her at all. This certainly wasn’t what she had originally had in mind, though it certainly won’t be the last thing he does for her. But, truthfully, it was all worth it in the end. Making sure he was being taken care of while he was recovering, with a roof over his head and fresh food on the table, and being able to see him smile truly made it all worthwhile. She tried her best, now more than ever, to make his days exciting and fun, his soft laugh the reward...

Had that been it? The thought strikes her suddenly, like a club pounding her head; had all of her expressions everyone worried over been caused by him? It made her blush suddenly turn crimson, hands grabbing at the fabric of her skirt. She was very concerned over him, his safety and his happiness seeming to be her top priority nowadays, and with all of the other things she had to juggle in life right now, everything might’ve been wearing her out. But if it was that, she didn’t mind at all; she would tell Justin so if he asked! Making him smile was a joy in her life; making him laugh made her heart swell with joy; his mere presence made her so cheery; she just loved him so much and wanted the best for him ---

The arrow is shot through her heart. She’s stunned by her rapid thoughts, all paused by a sudden realization of an occurring feeling; a growing feeling, maybe something that’s been growing for so long she hadn’t realized it until it was staring her in the face. Literally. With a look of concern.

“Kotori? You okay?” His voice trembled slightly, either due to nerves or pain she didn’t know, as his phone is pocketed for the moment. Instantly she nodded her head, though taking a moment to actually think of what to say. “Y-Yeah, I’m fine. I just think I had an epiphany of some kind, that’s all.” The quizzical look on his face at that answer made her crack a smile again, giggling at his confusion and her own newfound feelings that he couldn’t possibly know. “W-What was it?” Was his next question, a slight smile forming at the sight of her own, knowing that at least it wasn’t anything too terrible. Silence was her only answer for a moment, debating if she should say anything at all about it, but the thought being deemed as much too sudden. So, instead, she pressed her own finger to her lips with a wink, “Maybe someday. I still need to mull it over a bit; come to terms with it and everything.”
