Tumblr media
I was crying in my room hearing the sounds of their argument echoing down the hallway. I should be used to it by now after all the years of dealing with it, but every time it gets harder to listen to it knowing there is nothing i can do to stop it.
Growing up with parents that had anything but love for each other made it hard to believe in possibility to have a real family one day, but thankfully I found someone who showed me it was possible.
Since we started dating, I've told Pablo about the hardship of my family and he was so understanding promising to never make my parents mistakes in our relationship.
I was laying in bed scrolling through my camera roll smiling at our photos together trying to tune out the screams and insults coming from outside.
I could ignore anything unless when my dad gets physical like he did tonight. I heard him push my mom as she fell in front of my door with a loud bang.
I clumped on my bed holding onto my knees with one hand and dialing Pablo's number in another. I couldn't stay here anymore, I was starting to feel my panic attach creeping in.
"Hello? Amor?" he said while my tears were flooding my face smiling when I heard his voice that was enough to make me feel safer.
"Um..I need you to pick me up cariño..please?" I said my voice shaky and he knew something was definitely wrong if I was calling in the middle of the night sounding like this.
"I will be there in five minutes. Can you wait for me outside amorcito?" he said and I said that was fine as I packed some clothes into my backpack quietly sneaking out of my bedroom window. Luckily I was on the lower level so I could utilize the window when I needed it.
He was there even quicker rushing outside not even closing his door and hugging me to his chest tightly while holding my head against his chest as I cried.
"Shh..estas bien amor..estas bien..I am right here now..your Pablito is right here..and we are going to go somewhere quiet and safe okay?" he spoke and I nodded still unable to stop my tears from falling down my cheeks but at least I wasn't hyperventilating anymore when I got into the car and we drove off.
I took my shoes off pulling my knees to my chest while looking through the window wondering why do I need to have a family like this? How did I deserve to deal with this?
"Wanna hold my hand amorcito? We are almost home" he said giving you his arm and you held it against your chest playing with his fingers to distract yourself and he smiled continuing to drive slowly towards his house.
When we arrived, he helped me out walking slowly while holding my trembling body against himself kissing the top of my head when he got into his apartment.
"Let's wear some pajamas huh?" he said and I realized that I didn't pack any only bringing clothes to wear tomorrow. I told him that but he only smiled pulling me close and kissing my forehead.
"As long as I have my shirts, you will have your pajamas princesita" he said and I smiled as we walked to his bedroom looking through his closet for me to choose the shirt I wanted to wear.
"Those are all expensive Pablo.." I said not wanting to sleep in something that costed like my monthly subscription to Netflix and he chuckled shaking his head while pulling out one his Boss shirts I always complimented when he wore.
"Arms up princesita" he said and I blushed doing as he asked as he put the shirt over my body making it fall all the way below my knees like a perfect length dress.
"Looks better on you anyways..so how about we make some hot coco? I have mini marshmallows from last time too?" he said and I suddenly smiled wide that being my favorite drink which he knew really well. His eyes teared up and I was confused what happened.
"You have such a beautiful smile..you deserve to always smile preciosa...always" he said kissing the top of my head and I told him that it was alright and that I was used to dealing with this.
"Da igual.." you sigh shaking your head.
"No da igual..I promise to give you the life in which you will always smile.." he said and that made you smile more moving closer and kissing his lips lovingly. We might be young, but I trusted Pablo comeptlely and I knew he knows more about love than my adult parents ever will.
"No more tears! We are going to go make ourselves some coco and then we can cuddle if you want?" he said and I nodded quickly saying there is nothing better I could think of.
"Okay careful, preciosa. It's hot when I pour it and you can put in the marshmallows" he said and you smiled that he was always so careful not to hurt you and you waited for him to pour before putting in the squishy marshmallows in with a smile.
We sat down with our mugs and he pulled me into his arms. While I sipped on my coco, he was searching the channels smiling when he looked down at saw the little moustache I had on my face.
"Que?" I said when I saw him giggling and he used his fingers to clean me up putting it into my mouth afterwards making me blush.
"Tu eres tan preciosa" he said kissing my lips sweetly while I giggled telling him that I like Friends and that we can watch it which he quickly agreed.
We watched almost five episodes when i felt sleepy moving closer and resting my head on his shoulder while he held me tightly against himself which is exactly what I needed in this moment.
"Muchas gracias Pablo..for picking me up..and for taking care of me..Te amo mucho" I said and he smiled nodding his head and kissing the top of my head.
"Yo tambien te amo muchisimo princesita mia. No need to thank me..it's my job to take care of mi novia whenever she needs me..and I love whenever you can sleep over" he said and I smiled nodding my head and slowly dozing off to sleep.
I was already fast sleep on his chest when my phone rang and Pablo took it seeing it was my dad on the other line. His jaw clenched as he answered the call making sure to be quiet not to disturb your sleep.
"She's fine, sir. She's with me and I will take care of her..you have no idea how special your daughter is..and she doesn't deserve any of this" he said to the man before hanging up and kissing the top of your head promising himself to always be there to protect you and to give you the life you deserve in the future.
I hope you like it and I hope it helps in any way amor <3 Again, if you need to talk I'm always here! Stay strong!

[ Then, February of 1988 ]
At this point, you weren't sure how you hadn't died from sleep deprivation.
It had been a whole two weeks since the baby was born, and you were pretty sure you hadn't slept a wink since. One sleepless night had turned into two, and well… now you couldn't remember the last time you had slept.
The clock on the wall told you it was nearing three in the morning, the blackness outside the windows further proving that fact. The baby was once again crying, and no amount of midnight feedings or diaper changes or rocking her in the rocking chair had done the trick. You were warned about colic, but nothing could've prepared you for what it would be like in real time.
Another new nightly ritual was a tired Joyce stumbling into your bedroom, eyes heavy and feet shuffling. You knew exactly what she had in mind, but your Byers genes were far too stubborn to accept her offer.
“Mom, we're fine,” you insisted from your spot in the rocking chair. But even you knew that to the naked eye, you surely didn't look fine. Unwashed hair, blanket tossed messily over your lap, purple spots nearly black underneath your eyes.
Joyce just sighed from her spot in the doorway. “Honey, you are clearly not fine. Don't take this the wrong way but you're a mess.” The comment almost hurt you, though you supposed you appreciated your mother's honesty.
“I'll be okay,” you insisted. “It's not my first sleepless night.”
She moved to sit on the edge of your bed, across from the newly placed rocking chair and crib. “That's the problem, honey. You need sleep. You can't properly be there for her if you-”
“I can't leave her.”
“Don't get enough sleep and-”
“Mom, I can't-”
“You need to eat something too, honey. I mean, when was the last time you-”
“Mom!” you raised your voice this time, effectively cutting her off. “I cannot leave this baby.”
Joyce let out a long sigh, running a hand through her already messy hair. “If you don't take proper care of yourself, exhaustion is gonna hit you like a freight train. Then what?”
You supposed she might be right. But still, her comments couldn't make you see past your postpartum anxiety, worst case scenarios running rampant through your mind.
“What if something happens to her while I'm asleep?” you asked, voice weak. “Or what if she thinks I left her, just like…” you couldn't finish the statement before tears began to prick your eyes.
“Y/N, you know that me and Will would never let anything happen to this baby.” You could tell by her tone that she was being genuine, though both of you knew her words were useless when it came to your anxiety. “We love both of you. We would never let anything happen to her.”
Tears pricked your eyes as your panicked thoughts ran rampant. “What about Dad?”
She nearly fell off the bed after hearing your question. “Dad? What does Lonnie have to do with-”
“I keep having this weird feeling in my gut that Dad is gonna try something with her,” you explained, tears fully soaking your cheeks now. “Like he's going to try and take her from me.”
“I would never let that happen.” Joyce's words weren't a suggestion. She said them with such finality that you were tempted to believe her. “Lonnie walked out of here seven years ago. He hasn't gotten in here yet and I will make damn sure he doesn't get in now.”
Your heart was racing a million beats a minute. You weren't really sure why—other than postpartum anxiety—that Lonnie had been on your mind. But just the thought of him sent shivers up your spine and tears down your face.
Clinging harder to the bundle in your arms, careful not to hurt her but still holding her closer, you rocked gently in the chair in hopes of calming both yourself and the baby. Her cries had yet to subside, if anything they'd just grown louder.
“Mom, I'm so scared,” you finally broke. Even you could hear the weakness, the brokenness, the defeat in your voice. “What if I'm doing this all wrong?”
Joyce stood again, with that same finality as her words from earlier. “I'm not here to tell you how to raise your baby. You're the mother now and you know what's best for you and her,” she started, the words stern but gentle. “But I am here to give you advice as a mother myself. Babies can sense things. Maybe she's upset because you're upset.”
And with that, Joyce was stepping toward the door, reaching for knob, and then-
“Okay.” The word came out as defeated as you felt. “I'll let you have her just long enough for me to shower and eat something.”
She turned to face you with a small smile, not one of smugness or one of someone proving a point, but one that showed you that she was simply just glad to help you out. She left a soft kiss on your forehead as she took the baby from your arms, quickly taking your place in the rocking chair as you headed over to your dresser.
“Mom?”
Her smile went a little sideways as she looked up from the baby to you. “Yeah?”
“I love you. Don't ever forget that, okay?”
With a small nod, Joyce replied, “I won't. Don't you forget that I ditto.” A phrase that had been around since you were little. You weren't sure who started it, but in this moment you were thankful for it, five letters meaning the absolute world to you.
You walked over, leaving a peck to the prickly hairs you'd been seeing so much of these days, warmth filling the entire expanse of your body. “I love you, bub.”
“I'm sure she dittos you too, honey.”
Tumblr media
[ Now, January of 1992 ]
A loud yawn sounded from the other side of the counter, breaking you from your own mess of sleepy thoughts. “Me too,” you chuckled as you looked up, a yawn slipping between your own lips. Dark hair and round glasses met you, purple spots thick underneath his eyes. “You look about as tired as I feel.”
Steve chuckled, shaking his head. “I wouldn't have known it if you hadn't mentioned it,” he said. A crease formed between your brows as you wondered what he meant. “You look as nice as you always do.”
He set a new record for how quickly he'd ever made butterflies go off inside you. “Careful, Doc, or I'll think you're flirting with me,” you said through the crimson blush that had started to appear on your cheeks.
“Sorry,” he said sarcastically, “Must be the sleep deprivation from the double I just pulled.”
You cringed at his words, knowing all too well what that felt like. “I know the feeling. I might as well have pulled my own double after staying up all night with my dau-”
The word got caught in your throat as you realized what you were about to say. “Dog,” you covered quickly, hoping your lie flew over Steve's head.
On the outside, you were hoping to appear calm and cool. On the inside, you were face palming. You'd been sleep deprived many times before, considering you once had a baby on your hands who had colic from the day she was born. Not to mention being a mother made you miss sleep in many ways of its own. But you couldn't recall a time where you'd been so sleep deprived that you almost spilled your biggest secret to a practical stranger, much less a practical stranger who you were actively avoiding telling the secret to.
“I didn't know you had a dog,” Steve said with furrowed brows, his voice bringing you back to reality.
Even though you hated to lie to him, you were thankful that your job had given you the ability to think fast. “Yeah, she must've eaten something she wasn't supposed to. She was up all night throwing up.” The real story was that Mandy had snuck into the kitchen to eat the rest of her leftover Christmas candy after you told her not to, but Steve didn't have to know that.
“Plain rice helps.”
His reaction caught you off guard. “Huh?”
“Plain rice can help a dog's upset stomach,” he explained. “If it keeps happening though, you should definitely take her to a vet.”
Steve's suggestion was oddly sweet, and honestly tugged at your heartstrings a little bit. “Thank you for the tip. Out of curiosity though, how do you know about caring for a sick dog?”
His broad shoulders shrugged, and you tried not to drool at the sight of them. “I almost went to vet school. Boy, would that have made my dad mad. Not that med school has made him any less angry.” As if realizing he was rambling, an awkward chuckle slipped between his lips and he turned his attention to the menu. “You didn't ask. Anyway, what do you recommend?”
“Nice try,” you answered, rolling your eyes. “But for you, I recommend going home and getting some sleep.”
Steve chuckled, and the sound went straight to your belly. “Hey, you don't have to tell me twice. I just pulled a double and I have to be back on campus for classes in about five hours.”
Part of you wanted to tell him to just take the night off and get some rest. Another part of you wanted to drive him home yourself and tuck him in. “I do not envy you,” you giggled. “To answer your original question though, how does a strawberry smoothie sound?”
He met you with a closed-lip smile, one that had started to feel so comforting and oh so familiar these days. “That sounds perfect.”
Tumblr media
So this is about a month late...
I want to apologize for being gone with no announcement or explanation. Lots of things have happened in the past couple weeks that have taken a severe toll on my mental health and I just haven't really had the time to write, much less the energy.
I am feeling a little better and I have talked to my boss about my hours so I'm hoping that'll help somewhat. I really miss giving you guys content and I miss interacting with you guys.
Anyway, I hope you're all doing well! ❤️

Mafia GDragon x Reader
Summary:your father the Kim Sajangnim passed, he left you and JiYong in charge of his crime syndicate. You and JiYong have always had an easy affection, but he wants permanence and power.
Warning: just rich people stuff, real hot girl shit
A/N : @vampiratesgrl Holy smokes. This was a Namjoon imagine before this up to yesterday but with the big bang comeback and me watching all the interviews and countdowns all over again and some fr the first time, I'm faling in love with GD all over again. I really hope you like it, I'd hate for this to flop. I just return it to th Namjoon fic and upload it with changes. I was really inspired by @deermi Wonderwall pt4, A whale for the Killing by Faucault and @yuujispinkhair Kiss the ring I carry the crown, the big speech with Sukuna saying he's the most powerful guy MC would ever get. That speech inspired all of my WIPS rn.
Tumblr media
A torrent of sooty clouds scuttled out of the mountains, white frosty early morning winds swirled up to marry the cloud wrack. The sky was still slate grey, caught at the crossroads between late night and early morning. Fog swallowed up the buildings below like sea foam, only their roofs could be seen like bright buoys. The briliant red and blue lights on satellite towers blinking in the distance like a lighthouse.
This building is far above the rest. A headland among islands in clusters, seeded among the thick fog like dragon's teeth. They looked like things of terror on black nights or now when corpse blankets of fog smother streets and skyscrapers alike. 
Far off, several miles away out of the cloudbanks and miserable fog, I could see a black break, a slick surging body. I ran to the other wall facing the harbour. Boats slicing smoothly and disappearing from view. They left behind a plume of fine mist blown away quickly by the winds. 
This city was a foreign entity to me.
My breath was fogging up the glass of the floor to ceiling windows, it was ice cold to the touch and I could feel the cold tentacles slithering up my arms from my fingertips. An unpleasant cold all over nipping my thighs. I was wearing white silky pajama set, the breast pocket below an embroidered name KJY. 
The bedroom was treated similarly to the living room, large, opulent floor to ceiling windows with massive blackout curtains. The living room was dark, I think the lights were on a timer because I couldn't find a switch or a remote. The large white L -Shaped sofa and loveseats formed a sort of circle. A single brick wall that the TV was on and a fireplace below it .The living room was as big as my apartment and the windows made the room feel infinitely larger till the point where my domain flopped and rolled like I was going to fall. This place had to be an architect's contemporary paradise. White and black marble tiles and a plush colourful Persian rug overlaid it. Bonsai plants on a coffee table and fancy abstract art on the wall.
Everything looked so expensive and luxurious. High ceilings and yellow lightbulb chandelier looked like something out of a chemistry class-like how electrons were arranged around the nucleus, disjointed, haphazard and glorious.
Warm yellow light turned on in the kitchen. I could see the light on the walls and floors, distant beeping of the coffeemaker turning on. 
"Good Morning, little one. I'm surprised to see you out of bed so early."JiYong entered the living room in sweatpants, bare chested with a towel around his neck for his wet dark hair. He was holding a mug, steam rising out of it curling sinuously around his chin. There was a shiny gold watch on his wrist and a ring on his pinky. "It's too cold for you to be out of bed, baby, come here." The most impressive part of his look was the dragon on his chest curled against a daisy missing a single petal. That was the mark of the Kwon clan.
"JiYong..what am I doing here?"
"Today's going to be chilly,Jagi, I'll remember to lay out something warm.Didn't you want me to take care of you?" He pulled me into him by my hips. "Didn't you want me to make it better and take you away from all that? When Kim Sajangnim passed he gave me instructions to take care of you." 
I felt a pang of sadness in me like a final sombre piano key. Like melancholic pantones surrounded me. When my father died of course he gave one of his trusted business partners the reigns over me. He always favoured JiYong like the son he never had, men in his world never saw the use for daughters. Even when he died, he loaded over me. "JiYong, where am I?" 
He sipped casually,"Galleria Floret.Do you like it?"
"The view? It's lovely."
"Do you want to see it everyday? I can buy you an apartment like this one or…you can stay in this one with me. Just say the word and I'll get you anything you want. I want you to be comfortable." His eyes needled me. I could feel the subtle manipulation. 
Of course I wanted to stay with him. JiYong was a pervasive demagogue and had the silver tongue. Of course I wanted to be taken care of and not have to worry. And here was this rich, beautiful man giving me everything that I wanted. I had amassed enough wealth from my own endeavours independent of the Kim syndicate to buy my half  of the world, but I couldn't buy JiYong. I wanted him too. In my moments of abject loneliness I wanted him, I always had. 
"How do you afford all of this? I thought you…did Father already leave you an inheritance?" I pouted looking at my reflection in the glass and JiYong. His broad shoulders and tiny waist. He was built and defined, smelling incredible like a forest and limes and warm linens. 
He smiled over the rim of his mug. "I cashed in the shares he left me and now I own a major trading company and I dabble in architecture… that one right there with the red top, you can't see it very well now with the fog, that's the main firm I installed."
"So old money?" 
He stepped impossibly closer to me, arms around my shoulders now, pointing to a building sunken below the all encompassing fog,"And that one with the green lights, I bought it with old money… and the bright yellow twin pair way over there I bought them with new money…and that grey one and the apartment complex way over there too. I'm gonna buy all the others and anything else I want to look at. I want to look outside my window and see that I own the whole skyline. Your father's company and all his shady dealings,I'm making them legitimate. It's time we become businessmen, and walk the fine line between our world and the business world, keep the drugs, guns and casinos but what about arts and technology. And I'll need your clean face to help me."
He came off with a hint of aggression and cockiness at the end, reeling it in to chuckle watching me struggle. It was palpable, I could feel it like a force radiating off of him, like an invisible force field.
He turned to sit on the couch, fluffy bedroom slippers with a flat G stamp on the soles. His ming tea cup on the coffee table,"won't you come sit with oppa?"
I sank next to him, having him pull me into his lap. I let him, dizzy from how casually exuded power and peace.I sniffled curling into his side, wrapping around his middle. He pulled the blanket over me, letting me relax and rest so happily satisfied. "Oppa can more than provide for his baby girl."
"Where did you go? I woke up alone." 
"I was right with you the whole time. I went to the gym downstairs." 
"Why don't you just stay with me instead?"
"I'm sorry my princess, oppa will adjust his schedule so baby girl can wake up with him, yeah?"
I wasn't sure if he was being sarcastic or not but he was making me sink so quickly into my small space. I just wanted him to be true. "Do you mean it?"
He smiled warmly at me,stroking my face with his heavy warm hand," Yes baby. Oppa promises. I'll have my assistant get right on it." 
"Is she pretty?"
"Jimin is very kind and hardworking." 
I nodded with a a tiny huff, thoroughly satisfied with the answer. Bubba kissed my forehead softly, praising me I only have eyes for my little princess,okay? I held his hand in mine looking at all the tiny faces that it reflected in the pear cut gem. 
"Peridot, it's my birthstone. I mined it from a vein I own in Russia. Are you ever going to answer my question…if you want to stay here? Or are you quizzing me right now?" 
"Quizzing."
I giggled burying my nose to his neck testing how comfy it was here. So far so good.
He cringed towards me complaining about how cold my nose was like a puppy. I just nuzzled into him deeper.
"Level with me, you know Bubba can take care of you all day everyday no problem, because I love you. But if I do this for you now, if I put you back to sleep in my bed, under my sheets, in the pajamas I bought you…all under my roof you can never leave me. Now Oppa can keep his babygirl safe, clean, fed and spoiled all day everyday no problem or you can go back to your designing job and leave all of this behind. I won't keep you prisoner and I won't taint your business with cartel problems, but when I love you so fiercely the way only I can do, you'll never want to leave. Now make your decision. "
"What if I want none of that?"
"If you want to leave right now then go. Leave. Date any pathetic little boy you want to but you'll be back because you'll want a powerful man. You'll want somebody to spoil you with love and affection, their time and companionship. With their money. You love the power I have, and the inch your Father gave you you'd have all that you deserve with me. You'd want someone to die for you or kill for you. Either way, such bliss. So if you leave me, it'll hurt when I'm right. When my love burns you up and when you're without it your ashen. Let me know when I'm in the ball park."
Homerun. 
"So what do you want?"
"You know he was my father and as much as he hates the fact that I'm a girl, he put clauses in for me to limit your growth. Technically, I have more reigns than you do." 
"I know. But I want you to have all. Be with me, let's rule these peasants together. "
"I was going to say yes before your big speech." He grinned swooping me up instantly with one hand,perching you on his hip while you vibrated in laughter. He kept kissing my cheeks,setting the mug down on the table and carrying me bridal style now. 
"My smartest girl, my smartest most beautiful, most amazing girl. Come on let's get my princess something shiny."

THESEUS - a dsmp story ( DreamSMP x Queen!Reader)
CHAPTER FIVE : AND I REALIZE THREE FUNDAMENTAL TRUTHS AT THE EXACT SAME TIME.
Chapter Summary: You had gotten what you wanted, but at what cost? Nightmares ensue, and Dream’s true colors begin to show.
pairing: c!wilbur x queen!reader
an// IM BACK!! hopefully yall like this chaper cause this is the last one that I wrote in the past, Im writing chapter 6 rn so it might take a while. Also sorry for not posting requests I really wanted to get this chapter out there
⚠︎ swearing, dsmp spoliers(?), angst, arguing, smoking, explosions, gaslighting(?), not proofread.
Series Masterlist 
"Good job you two! This is all yours now.”
Dream had led you and Eret back to the castle, all of them still battered and bruised from the war they recently had. You had already taken off your armor and now you were wearing underneath your L'Manburg outfit that was torn and burnt showing some of your skin which was also burnt or cut. You had noticed on the way to the castle that Dream had kept on looking at the outfit that Eret and you had on with disgust, like a taunt.
You could finally relax in the huge castle that you apparently deserved because you and Eret had taken the first lives of the citizens of L'Manburg. In your heart you knew that L'Manburg was still a country. They all have two more lives and they will build the country up again with those two lives. You sighed then kept walking into the throne room. you looked at the two big thrones that sat next to each other. One for a king and one for a queen.
"Why are you standing there? Sit down! Relax!" Dream patted one of the thrones.
You and Eret had sat down on the thrones next to each other looking around the huge throne room and Dream smiling right in front of them. Once you both sat down you tried to sit up straight, but you wanted to slump down into the comfy, plush, velvet and gold chair. The two of them sat on velvet and gold thrones while in burnt and torn L'Manburg uniforms. It was a sight to see, and if someone didn't know the context of what just happened, this scene would've made sense to them.
"I'm happy you did this. You deserve all of this." Dream said while walking along the marble floor.
"It's beautiful, but I'm exhausted." You let your head fall to the side. You sighed wanting Dream to leave so you could finally get some rest.
"I bet."
"Eret are you okay?" You spoke up after Dream.
Eret had a look that you couldn't make out. He just stared off into space in his own mind. He shook his head after you called for him again.
"Yeah, yeah I am fine. I'm just thinking." Eret quickly responded.
"What are you thinking about?" Dream said in a monotone voice.
"If we did the right thing." Eret sighed.
You slowly nodded because you were thinking the exact same thing. They were traitors, you had built somewhat of a connection with those people you helped kill. And now what? you're living in a huge castle and apparently you "Shouldn't be feeling this way", Dream claimed.
"You two are overreacting. They are fine." Dream said bluntly while staring at them with a straight face.
That was a huge lie, their lives were taken today. They're not just “fine”.
"You two were never a part of that place anyways. This is your home! Why would you need to wear those hideous colors? They look bad on you, it's unflattering. There is no need to go back." Dream explained.
You hang your head not knowing what to say to the man, there wasn’t really anything to say but you spoke up hoping the words will come to you.
"I don't-"
"You don't have to say anything, it's okay. You're safe now. Did you get hurt?" Dream asked.
The bruises and scars said differently.
"Remember when I said that?" Dream pushed the question.
You rubbed a burn mark on your wrist and laughed a bit. "No! Actually I don't. We're safe now, but that doesn't mean we aren't hurt." You chuckled in disbelief.
"Well maybe if you listened to me you wouldn't be so anxious. If you listened you wouldn't have been so hesitant. You're safe." Dream said sternly.
"Maybe you're tired, Dream. We're all tired. Shall we go to bed?" Eret stood up and held out his hand to help you up from your seat.
You accepted his hand and started to follow Eret through the huge castle making your way through the huge, high ceiling halls. The three walked towards the king's and queen's room in the castle, Dream kept a slower pace and walked behind the two wanting to get one more word in before leaving the castle.
"If you two are ever in doubt just remember that you are on the right side of history." Dream said then turned around to leave the two alone.
You both stopped and turned around to see Dream’s back facing the both of you as he walked away. You and Eret eventually made it to your new bedrooms. There was a big door which held a huge room made for the both of them to sleep in and two separate rooms next to the bigger door which were made for one person. Eret and you stood in front of the bigger door staring at the intricate designs on the door not speaking to each other.
"So?" Eret laughed.
"So!" You exclaimed while chuckling.
"Are you okay sleeping in that huge room tonight?" Eret asked.
"I'm not totally comfortable with that, but it would be weird if we slept in the same bed. Don't get me wrong! You're a great friend, but-"
"Y/N/N stop! I'm okay with that too. I wasn't looking to sleep in the same bed. Yes we're married, but we're just staying friends, hey we might get a divorce later." Eret explained.
"If I do, we won't be king and queen anymore." You said softly to your husband.
"Is that what you want? To be "queen"?" Eret asked while putting air quotes around the word queen.
You paused for a moment then answered his question.
"I don't know where I'm supposed to be, Eret." You looked up at him sadly and he pulled you in for a hug. It took you everything you had to not cry into the L'Manburg uniform Eret was wearing. Today drained you mentally and physically, your hands were raw from shooting arrows, you had burn marks on your skin and your feet hurt from running through the kingdom. You weren’t sure about where you would go, because this didn't feel like your home.
"Let's go to bed and we'll talk in the morning. Rest on it because I'll happily divorce you so you can find your place in this huge kingdom." Eret laughed and let you out of his arms.
You chuckled and then let him go walking into what was supposed to be the queen's room and right next to it was the king's room which they both walked in after saying goodnight and closing their doors finally having time to themselves after a long day.
You finally took off the L'Manburg uniform and laid it on a velvet chair in the corner of the huge room. You stared at the uniform before going to the nearest closet and picking out something to wear for that night. The queen's room was basically the huge couple's room that you found before, but just with a smaller bed. There were still trinkets, jewelry and even clothes in the closet. you took a nightgown out of the closet and sat on the plush bed. You ended up laying down staring at the high ceiling thinking of the predicament Eret's question brought.
You finally retired for the night and crawled into bed and got under the soft covers. The window was open so a soft cool breeze was blowing through the room letting the curtains flow with the breeze. If you left you wouldn't have anywhere to go except back to L'Manburg, they would never let you back even if you tried. They probably hated your guts by now, so maybe divorcing wasn't a good idea. You had a set home here, you had food, clothes, and you weren't under attack every minute. you didn't have to watch your back for any enemies.
Your mind slowed down as you finally lulled yourself into a deep sleep forgetting the troubles in your mind for only a moment.
-------------------
The sunset fell over the horizon making it a gold, red color. It was beautiful. The trees were illuminated and the lakes had a certain glow to them. you could see mobs began to crawl out of the ground and caves, but you was safe up here.
You looked down and saw the familiar obsidian walls. It seemed like a faint memory, but in reality the walls were real. It was like you could feel the stone underneath your feet at this moment. you could see inside L'Manburg.
you saw Tubbo and Tommy laying in the grass talking to one another. you saw Fundy sleeping in the grass next to them. There were two new faces you had never seen before. It was a woman with short pink hair and another man with a shaved head. It might've been your mind putting people in your dreams to fill space. Then you saw Eret sitting by a small river letting his bare feet flow in the water. It was a peaceful scene.
"Beautiful sunset isn't it?" A voice showed up beside you.
It was Wilbur. He had his uniform on, it was clean like the war didn't even happen.
"It is really beautiful." You agreed watching the sun continue to lower over the trees.
"You know everything the sun touches is yours? It's all of ours. It just so happens that you can see the sunset and sunrise from L'Manburg. You can do anything as long as you see the sun rise and fall." Wilbur said, keeping his gaze soft at the sunset.
You hummed but stayed quiet admiring his words and the sunset.
"Let me tell you what I wish I'd known when I was young and dreamed of glory. You have no control who lives, who dies, who tells your story. After you took one of my lives away I understand now. You can't control other people and their motivations."
You hang your head in disappointment, but then Wilbur continued.
"But I know that we can win. I know that greatness lies in you, but remember from here on in that history has its eyes on you. History will forever have its eyes on you no matter what you do." Wilbur looked into your eyes as the sun set on the two of them the stars began to shine.
The light brown eyes Wilbur had turned darker because of the sunlight being gone. You looked out back at the mobs in the forest and the huge towers in the sky made the kingdoms members. you turned around and looked into L'Manburg. Or what was considered L'Manburg.
There was no one there anymore, instead of people there were huge amounts of TNT that filled the walls behind them. you could hear faint voices around them, people that you didn't know. It sounded like chaos. you whipped your head around to Wilbur who was dressed in a brown tattered trench coat, brown pants, and a white shirt instead of the L'Manburg uniform.
He had a cigarette in his mouth and matches in his hands. He smirked at you as the voices around you got louder and your head sounded like you were in the middle of a tornado. your head was buzzing as your eyes couldn't focus on Wilbur in front of you. It felt like these moments were happening right in front of your all at one time.
"You want to be a hero Tommy?"
"You know if I die, this country goes down with me."
"if respect is the only thing protecting you from a knife in the back, then respect is nothing, right?"
"Kill me, Phil. Phil, kill me, Phil kill me! Phil, stab me with the sword, murder me now, kill me! Look-"
"You know Y/N" Wilbur started next to you. He lit a match and turned around to L'Manburg which was now filled with TNT.
"Somethings. Somethings were never meant to be." He threw the match into the huge pile of TNT and all in a second the obsidian underneath your feet disappeared as you fell into the explosion beneath you.
-------------------------
"Fuck! Where am I?!" You shot up from your sleeping position in a cold sweat.
You frantically felt around the bed trying to convince yourself that you were physically at the castle in your bed. You finally caught your breath and laid back down in your bed finding yourself staring at the ceiling again. Even with the window open blowing cool air into the room, your skin still felt hot. You ended up tossing the covers off of you and making your way towards the entrance of the kingdom to get some air.
That dream was so much stuff in it you couldn't comprehend all of it. It was like Wilbur was there as if he was talking to you directly and it wasn't a dream and it made you second guess yourself and think that it may have not been a dream. You finally made it outside and sat on one of the steps that led people up into the kingdom. you sighed and breathed in the fresh air and it immediately relaxed your body and mind. You were alive, you were here and sadly Wilbur wasn't there. You closed your eyes and felt the breeze around you until you were startled by a figure beside you.
"You're up late. I thought you said you were mentally tired." Dream chuckled sitting beside you.
"I had a bad dream." You sighed.
"Hey don't take my name in vain like that" Dream laughed trying to bring up your mood.
Dream sighed and stood back up when he didn't get a response from his companion.
"Come one, let's go. Let's get your mind off of the one bad dream." Dream held his hand out, gesturing to you to take it.
You took his hand and then released it letting him lead the way to wherever the wind may take them. The dream is currently still stuck in your head. The voices from different people confused you and made your head spin.
"You want to be a hero Tommy?" What did that mean? Was someone threatening Tommy? Will someone threaten Tommy? You grew to care for that kid.
Who said "If I die, this country goes down with me"? What country. L'Manburg?
"If respect is the only thing protecting you from a knife in the back, then respect is nothing, right?" That one stumped you the most. you didn't even know if this was being spoken to you or to someone else. All of them except for the Tommy one.
Were they all even dreams? The one that haunted your mind the most was the one where someone was telling a man named Phil to kill them. Were you there for that moment? Did Phil kill the person? Who was Phil? All these thoughts and questions plagued your mind so much that your feet mindlessly carried you wherever Dream led you to.
"Here we are." Dream led You on top of a hill, a tall enough hill to see the main attraction. The place you missed the most, L'Manburg.
Tears started to form in your eyes and you tried blinking them away. All the moments of that dream appeared in your brain, but even stronger. you never felt these emotions before. Maybe L'Manburg was your home all along. you missed seeing Tubbo, Tommy, Eret and Fundy doing their own thing while your and Wilbur had a deep talk inside the van. you had spent weeks with them growing too attached to them and then ended up becoming a traitor.
"That place. You never belonged there. You're too good for them." Dream started and you stayed quiet watching the stars begin to disappear.
"Do you trust me?" Dream asked.
You stayed quiet not having the answer he wanted to hear. He wanted to hear you say that you trusted him when in reality you couldn’t, you weren't fully there yet, not anymore. 
"They lied to you. It's not your home." Dream continued on letting you listen and not talk.
"How did you know if someone said it was my home or not?" You asked, startled.
"I might've been keeping an eye on you. I wanted to make sure my flower was okay." Dream kept his gaze on L'Manburg.
"Stop calling me that." You sighed.
"I never started. This was the first time I said that. Who called you flower?" Dream suddenly got serious, staring at you.
you kept your sights on the obsidian walls, not sparing him a glance. The stars began to fade and the sun peeked over the horizon. As they stayed longer the sun rose over the walls of L'Manburg. You started to remember the words in the dream you had.
"You know everything the sun touches is yours? It's all of ours. It just so happens that you can see the sunset and sunrise from L'Manburg. You can do anything as long as you see the sun rise and fall."
L'Manburg stands for independence. Independence. That word kept ringing through your head like a mantra until a few voices below the hill and near the walls alerted you.
"HEY! Hey Wilbur! Give me back my shit!" Tommy yelled as he stomped after the older man.
"Wilbur get Tommy to stop shouting and give him his swords back please!" Fundy yelled trailing behind the two.
"No not until he learns not to go start stabbing shit!" Wilbur yelled back at the other two.
You missed that. you missed the bickering and the nonsense they all shared. you were upset that Tommy still hadn't learned his lesson and you wished you were there beside them at that moment.
Dream spoke up giving you a look you couldn’t quite get. "You are never allowed to step inside those walls again.
"What gives you the right to tell me what and what not to do? Who does that make you? Who do you think-"
"YOU ARE NEVER ALLOWED TO GO IN THOSE WALLS!" Dream yelled getting dangerously close to you.
You continued to stare at those blue eyes as the bright sun rose over the dark walls of L’Manburg. you didn't say anything but descended down the mountain alone with the sounds of Tommy, Fundy, and Wilbur bickering in the background, wishing you were there and not next to the man next to you who was staring at you angrily.
"I know what’s good for you! I know what's good for this country! Just trust me Y/N!" Dream yelled starting an argument
"Would you calm down! You came here to be all quiet and now you're yelling at me. You might want to be quiet before Wilbur hears you. Or do you want me to get him myself?" You yelled back, getting furious.
"Oh you wish! He doesn't care for you as much as me, Sapnap and George do! They agree as well!"
"Don't put words into his mouth!" You accused
"Oh! So if he cares so fucking much he would've help save you. And do you know what would happen if he saved you?! You would've died! I saved you! You were in a perfect situation and all you had to do is not complain! You're always overreacting." Dream ended with a huff and rolled his eyes while turning away..
you were speechless at this point. Overwhelming emotions consumed you. you couldn't believe you were overreacting. Maybe Wilbur wasn't everything you needed. you were overreacting, you were being selfish too. Dream was right. Dream walked over to you pulling you in a hug with L'Manburg was still in your sights.
"I did everything because I love you. You're too precious for them, you're not for them. They don't deserve you, you deserve someone who wants the best for you. A flower that needs a home and I'm here to give it to you." Dream softly explained.
Your eyes kept tearing up at the words and different emotions flowing through you. The sights on L'Manburg make your memories and questions come back. Where did you belong? But more importantly who was telling the truth?

Bubble ♡︎ | Na Jaemin
Genre : Fluff humor
You’re subscribed to Jaemins bubble, excited just like every other fan to recieve his message for today until his new messages don’t seem like the others.....
-—————————————————————————
“What’s taking so long ?” You stared blankly at the LYSN* app while stretching your legs onto your leather couch.
You switched over to the Twitter app and scrolled through your timeline, briefly reading through whatever was the latest topic on nctzen Twitter. One tweet caught your attention which made you chuckle out loud
Nananotifs: “I’m pretty sure Haechan finally threw Jaemin’s phone out of the dorm window bc.......”
All Nanadoongies gathered on Twitter to complain about the absence of Jaemin especially since he was the only one who hadnt reposted Chenle’s beloved pup Daegal.
You sighed and switched back to the LYSN app and noticed you were able to send one more message to Jaemin before the app blocks you off until he sends a new message.
Y/n: nana I miss you please say something
JAEMIN: y/n did you eat today ? I’ve missed you!
Your eyes widened at the immediate message you received from your ult. Was is coincidental ? Ofcourse it was, they don’t get notifications from fan messages do they ?
You immediately switched over to Twitter already seeing the bubble update account sharing Jaemins new message along with the entire timeline screaming over his activity.
~boominana: “how dare he act so normal I’m gonna cry !!!!”
~jaeminjenos: “post a selfie Jaemin don’t be shy”
~dreamies023: “he’s probably busy guys let him post when he wants to”
The last account was right. Jaemin was probably so busy. It was nice that he still found time out of his schedule to message nctzens and that’s what you loved most about him.
Y/n: Jaemin you’re stressing everyone out on Twitter lol let us know you’re doing ok we love you !
JAEMIN: am I ? :/
Was it a delayed message ? You shook your head and decided it was probably just another glitch on the app.
Y/n: yes stop ghosting us !
JAEMIN: ghosting ? ㅋㅋㅋ so dramatic
You froze. There was absolutely no way that from the tons of messages he would be recieving right now that yours would be the one he read and responded to.
The interaction made your heart race and quickly switch over to Twitter, it was probably chaos right now wondering what Jaemins messages could mean.
Silence.
Everyone on the timeline moved on from Jaemins first message and there were no updates on the messages you had just received from him.
PING!
JAEMIN: y/n ~ are you not going to answer me ? How am I ghosting you :(
This could not be real. You felt a lump in your throat as you checked over your other bubble subscriptions which all seemed fine except for his. You had no idea how to feel or what to do.
Y/N: this is weird. Send me a selfie so I know you’re actually replying to me and not a bot -_-
About 15 minutes went by and you stared at the open chat. He had read your message but there was no reply.
“Humh it was a bot after all” you huffed, about to close the app when your phone pinged and you saw Jaemins name pop up.
A voice note.
“Hey y/n, I hope I’m saying your name correctly hehe So long story short I think the chat glitched and your name and profile pic added itself to my own bubble. Weird right ? Mark Hyung told me I should send a voice note because it will make you believe me a bit more and .....well we would know if you posted on Twitter which CANNOT happen hahaha you understand right ?”
What was happening right now.
You pinched yourself to make sure you didn’t accidentally fall asleep on the couch and start having a very eerie realistic dream.
JAEMIN: I know you’re shocked rn but I really enjoy reading your replies haha it was the best part of my day and well I couldn’t help myself today. I wanted to tease you lol
Y/N: wait so how long has this “glitch” happened for ?
JAEMIN: hmmm....about a month now I think...after you renewed your account I think hehe
Y/N: what ??? Omg I’m so embarrassed......
JAEMIN: there’s nothing to be embarrassed about trust me. I’ve read everything czennies have sent me haha I find it amusing.
You exhaled deeply and scrolled through some of the messages you have sent him during this month and thankfully none of them were cringeworthy.
Y/N: so...now what? Should I speak to app support and fix this....unsubscribe or something....
JAEMIN: LOL youre really funny. Imagine finding out you can speak to someone from your fav idol group and you want to call tech support ...LOL so funny Mark Hyung is laughing
You felt your cheeks heat up at the image of Na Jaemin and Mark Lee laughing at your messages.
JAEMIN: please don’t be embarrassed y/n ! I only did this bc well I have your profile now and you’re really cute.
This was NOT happening.
Y/N: Uh......
JAEMIN: what do you have a boyfriend ? ....
Y/N: no I don’t I’m just....it’s nothing never mind
JAEMIN: LOL so cute! So do you have Kakao ?
Y/N: you want my number ? Why ? .....
JAEMIN: to talk to you obviously! What if they fix the glitch and I’ll never be able to talk to you again..
Jaemin wanted to talk to you. He was trusting you wholeheartedly to add him on his private account. Did he have an idea of the kind of person you were ? How could he possibly risk his career to a nobody ?
Y/N: I do have kakao it’s YN_0023.... Jaemin I won’t say anything but are you sure this is okay ?
JAEMIN: yeah I’ll video call you and we can talk about it ...adding you now. Clear this chat after you get my text!
VIDEOCHAT ?
Is he absolutely insane ? Maybe the voice note was fabricated. Maybe this was some weirdo trying to prey on innocent fangirls. Maybe -
Nana00: heyyyyyyyyy :)
Y/n: hi Uhm is this ...Jaemin ...
Nana00: yup (inserts a pic with your username on a sheet of paper)
Y/n: holy shiiiiit
By now you were already pacing across your entire apartment trying to come to terms with what was going on in your life right now. It became a force of habit to constantly check Twitter and make sure by chance somebody mentioned a glitch of some sort or SM announcing that the app is under construction or SOMETHING.
‘This couldn’t be real’ you thought.
Nana00: lol you’re so funny so are you free to video call ?
Y/n: Uhm......are you sure that’s a good idea ?
Nana00: yeah I mean firstly I would like to know you’re real too lol and also I want to know if I can trust you with this information.....it’ll be quick I promise
Y/n: well....okay give me 10minutes please
Nana00: lol sure :)
After scrambling to your bathroom to make yourself a little presentable as if you just won a video call event for your ult, you finally set on a laidback look so it doesn’t look too obvious that you put a little effort in.
You decided to prop your phone on the mini tripod on your desk so the lighting from your bedroom window in front of you bounced off your skin perfectly.
Y/n: okay I’m ready. I’m a little shy so.....sorry if I can’t talk much...
Nana00: you don’t sound shy when you talk about me on bubble hehe ;)
You buried your face in your hands and groaned. The embarrassment was still eating at you and Jaemin was not letting you live those messages down.
Ring Ring Ring......
You saw your phone light up and Jaemins kakao profile picture fill your screen.
With a shaky finger you press the recieve button and watch as the pixelated video start to clear up, presenting a very smiley Na Jaemin.
“Hi there” he said in his high voice and a bright smile on his face. He seemed to be sitting at his desk as well, hair still wet from either a rainy day or a shower.
“Uhm hi” you replied shyly and waved awkwardly.
“So this is the face behind the bubble profile huh”
“I guess so” you replied. It seemed as though you were calm and collected but on the inside you were screaming. Screaming that you were conversing with one of your favourite people right now.
“Good! Sorry to ask this again but did you clear the chat on bubble ? We have to be careful with that” he said in a concerned voice.
“Yeah I did after you sent the pic I finally realized it was definitely you so I went ahead and did it” you quickly said, kinda embarrassed by how fast your words came out.
Jaemin chuckled.
“You still doubted me after the voice note?”
“Just a little”
“You’re so adorable it’s ridiculous you know that ?” He gleamed and neared the screen, his deep brown eyes focusing on yours “ where are you from y/n?”
“Well I live in a lot of places but my hometown is _______. I learnt most of my korean while studying here in Osaka weird enough” you shrugged.
You moved to Japan for your first year of university since it was where you sort of grew up as a kid and took up extra korean classes once settled in the city.
“Osaka ?? Wow I love Japan I can’t wait to go back! Well now I kinda have an excuse to go” he winked sending your heart into a frenzy.
You giggled shyly “is this the fan service everybody talks about ?
“Fan service is a job....this is different I’m sure you know that y/n haha”
“All of this because of my profile picture ?”
“Well” Jaemin bit down on his lip as his eyebrows turned into a frown
“I obviously saw your pic and thought you were very cute but a big part of it was your messages and how you would always message me when I most needed it.”
“My messages are very random” you chuckled.
“Still made me smile throughout my day and that means a lot” he said and ran his fingers through his hair “so it’s kinda selfish of me to say, but id like for you to update me...personally”
“Na Jaemin are you asking me to be your own personal bubble account ?” You raised your eyebrow.
“Yeah pretty much” he shrugged “I’ll repay the subscription when I see you Osaka.”

part 1 | part 2
Tumblr media
Damn it, you were falling in love again.
It had gone a few months since you started dating Izuku. Neither of you had made it official or told anyone. You did your best to avoid paparazzi when you two were together, one time you went as far as to walk into a store... which you a few seconds after found out was a mens underwear store. That didn’t happen often, though. Most of the time you spent your time together at either his or your apartment. Even that didn’t happen often, since Izuku’s work often got in the way. You couldn’t complain though, could you? It wasn’t like he was your boyfriend... he wasn’t obliged to spend time with you. No... you two were just dating.
Your friends had started catching on that you had found someone. On your nights out with the girls you actually stayed with them the entire night and always went home by yourself.
“It’s so unlike you.”, one of them had said.
“Well, maybe I’ve changed.”, you had shrugged and tried to keep calm.
“I bet it’s a boy...”, another friend had giggled.
“No... I-...”, you had sighed.
“It is a boy!”, they had laughed
And it was a boy, you couldn’t lie to them like that. So of course you told them... but that only made them want to meet this mysterious man even more.
That night you talked with Izuku about it. You were laying next to him in his bed. It was the night before his day off, which happened every once in a while and when they did you’d usually spend it like this. There was something about feeling his skin against yours that made you feel so safe and warm, maybe the heat had to do something about the activity you just did... but that doesn’t really matter. The soft sheets were a plus too, Izuku nearly always made sure to have new clean sheets for these days. Though he’d try to deny it.
“My friends wants to meet you.”, you muttered softly as you played with his hair.
“Oh really?”, he chuckled, “Did you tell them about us?” He softly traced figures on your bare back, it felt like absolute heaven and you had to remind yourself to speak.
“More like they dragged it out of me...”, you sighed, “... they’re surprised that I don’t... that I actually spend our nights out with them and don’t go home with someone else.” A laugh erupted from his chest and you hid your flustered face in the crook of his neck. 
“Don’t laugh at me...”, you muttered.
“I’m sorry, honey...”, he let out a last chuckle, “... don’t hide from me...” You peaked at him to see him pouting and trying to give you the best puppy eyes he could muster. You looked up at him again and held his head in your hands.
“You’re too beautiful to hide away...”, he muttered softly, “... and if your friends want to meet me, then I’ll do it as long as you want me to.” But you didn’t even know if you wanted them to meet him. You were scared to even just admit that you actually loved him.
“I want to... but it’s just that... I’m scared about how they’d react.”, you admitted.
“What do you mean?”, he looked at you so innocently it made your stomach turn.
“It’s been a while since I was like this.”, you whispered, “And to be honest it scares me a bit.”
“Scares you?”, he grinned, “I’m a hero, you’ve got nothing to be scared about.”
“Izuku...”, you said in a warning tone.
“Sorry, sorry...”, he chuckled, “In all seriousness, though, you don’t have to do it if you don’t want to. We can stay hidden like this until your comfortable.”
“But I don’t want to hide when I’m with you.”, you just really wanted to say it but it was like the words were stuck in your throat.
“Then what do you want, sweetheart?”, he asked patiently.
“I... I want to... I don’t know.”, you groaned and rolled over to the other side, now laying with your back against him.
“Y/N...”, he sighed.
“I should take a shower...”, you sat up and looked back at him. The sight nearly killed you. Izuku was laying on the side, his usual smile was now a frown and his eyes were filled with hurt.
“I’m really sorry, Izuku.”, you whispered before walking towards his bathroom.
While in the shower you were able to clear your mind.
I want to tell him that I love him. I want to be with him. What’s stopping me? Why do I have this weird feeling in my stomach? I know he’ll never hurt me... so why am I still scared?
A part of you really just wanted him to say it first. Then again, that wouldn’t be very fair. You couldn’t just wait for him to do everything. And when the time came around, would you be able to say it back? When you walked back out from the shower, a towel wrapped around your form as you pushed back your still damp hair. Izuku was laying with his back against you, a sigh escaped your lips and you walked towards him. This was supposed to be his day off, the day you’d actually be able to spend with him... and you had just ruined it. You sat down on the bed beside him and pushed back his green curls from his forehead.
“Why does it have to be so hard to say three damn words?”, you muttered.
He can’t hear me right now though...
You leaned in and pressed a soft kiss to his cheek bones, where your lips lingered even if it was for just a second.
“I love you.”, you whispered softly as you slowly pulled away. A new kind of warmth filled your chest as you said so. The thought of actually being able to say it made you feel a little bit better. You took off your towel and dropped it on the floor so that you could get into bed next to him. You pressed your chest against his back and wrapped your arms around his waist. As if nothing happened, you fell asleep... not knowing that Izuku had heard everything.
The next morning you woke up to an empty bed, but it didn’t take you long to hear the shower running. You sat up and pulled the sheets up to your chest... the towel you had left on the floor wasn’t there anymore. I shouldn’t have left it there...
The shower turned off and you heard Izuku walking around in the bathroom, probably getting himself ready for the day. Should I leave? I feel like I’ve cause enough trouble...
“Good morning, love.”, Izuku peaked his head through the door to the bedroom.
“‘Morning.”, you smiled softly, “Did you sleep alright?”
“Oh, just fine.”, he answered and walked in to get some clothes, “How about you?”
“I slept alright.”, you watched as he put on his clothes; boxers, sweatpants... and then he started rummaging through his drawer with shirts.
“I’m guessing you want this.”, he grinned and threw you one of his hoodies, the one that was your favorite. You had some of your own clothes at his apartment, but you were still wearing his when you got the chance.
“Thank you.”, you giggled and pulled it over your head. When you looked back up at him your face turned red. Izuku had looked through the part of his drawer where you put some of your stuff.
“Why don’t you wear these for me?”, he held up a pair of your lingerie underwear, the pink, lacy ones.
“Izuku!”, you squeaked, “Put those back!” He chuckled as he knealt down by the bed, now in eye-level with your stomach. He held the underwear up while leaning on his elbows.
“You look so damn cute in this, though.”, he pouted, “For me, baby?”
“They’re too nice for every day wear.”, you argued.
“Fine...”, he sighed and threw them away, “I like you better without any at all, anyways.” Izuku pounced on you, making you fall down on the bed and letting him get on top of you. His right knee between your legs and his elbows leaning on either side of your head. You wanted to say you loved him, you wanted to say it so bad... still, that clump in your throat stopped you.
“I...”, you started but was interupted by Izuku’s lips.
“We should go make some breakfast.”, he muttered against your lips.
On these kinds of mornings you were in charge of making coffee as Izuku made breakfast. Pancakes, much like the day you two met. It was usually what he made when you two were together. The two of you did this as if it was a planned routine by now.
“Taste.”, you gave him a cup, half full with coffee.
“Never been better.”, he smiled lovingly after he had tasted it. You let out a chuckle. He said that every time you did this together. You finished everything up and put the kettle of coffee on the table along with two cups. Soon after Izuku placed the pancakes on the table aswell. You sat in silence, listening to the rain smattering against the window. From time to time you’d sneak glances at each other and let out a few chuckles. Nothing was really funny, it was just the reaction from staring each other in the eyes for too long. Sometimes one of you’d make a silly face and then the other would reply by making another silly face. But when Izuku would look away for a while, out the window, was probably your favorite. There was something about being able to really take in his appearance and not have him stare back that felt so calming. Yeah, you’d see him on TV a lot and obviously he didn’t look back at you then... but in person was so much better. In real life you could see all the imperfections that made him so perfect. Your  favorite way to do this was when you for once woke up before him, and the sun shined on his skin so softly and perfect. Wrinkles, smile lines, scars, blemishes... they all made him himself. And he was real. And he was yours. Yours. Was he? Did he see himself as yours?
“What’s up?”, he asked as he took another bite of his pancake. You had been staring for too long and he had noticed. You looked back down on your plate and pushed around the pancake with your fork.
“You’re pretty.”, you peered at him through your lashes. This seemed to take him off guard, as he started choking on his food and started coughing.
“I’m sorry- what?”, he laughed between coughs.
“I said you’re pretty.”, you shrugged with a smile playing on your lips, “It’s no big deal.” You gave him a teasing look as you took a bite of your breakfast.
“You’re pretty damn beautiful yourself.”, he smiled as you started getting a tint of pink dusted across your cheeks, “Do you want to go out later? The rain seemed to stop, maybe we could go to a park.”
“That sounds nice.”, you smiled, putting the events of last night behind you.
Soon enough you’d be out of the house. You had quickly brushed your teeth and found some clothes to wear, you decided to steal one of Izuku’s knitted sweaters and your pair of jeans from yesterday. Meanwhile Izuku looked ready to go to a photoshoot with his white tee, black jeans and a jean jacket. To top it off, he showed off his leather belt by tucking the front of his shirt into his pants.
“I’m gonna look like a trashbag next to you.”, you laughed as you looked at him through the mirror of the bathroom while you were putting on make up.
“Don’t even start that, baby.”, he shook his head, “You’re the prettiest person on earth, okay?”
“You’re just saying that.”, you rolled your eyes, but kept a smile on. You heard him let out a sigh and suddenly you felt something cold against your neck. Izuku was putting his silver necklace on you.
“Even more beautiful now.”, he kissed your cheek, “I didn’t know that was possible.” You put your hand over the necklace as Izuku walked out the bathroom, making it clear that the conversation was over. When he was out of the bathroom you looked at it... it was a tiny locket, so of course you opened it. It was a picture of him when he was younger and a blonde man behind him. Is that All Might?
“Are you ready to head out?”
“Coming!”
The two of you got onto the nearest metro. You didn’t know where you were going, but Izuku said that he had a plan so you just had to trust him. The metro was full of people trying to get to work or school, and you realized how happy you were to have taken the day off. People were obviously looking over at the two of you, since Izuku was the number one hero, and you started to feel a bit anxious. Suddenly Izuku grabbed your hand and started leading you to a newly arrived train.
“That’s the one!”, he smiled at you.
The train was packed with people, so you ended up having to stand. This of course didn’t help your anxious feeling from people looking at you. 
The ride was bumpy and you weren’t really prepared for the train to stop, so you fell right into Izuku’s chest. Instinctively his hand, which was also holding a bag with a single blanket in it, went for the small of your back to keep you stable. You still didn’t know why he had brought a blanket, but that was probably a part of the surprise.
“Sorry...”, you chuckled and tried to move away.
“It’s alright.”, he softly kissed the top of your head.
“Izuku, there are people around.”, you looked up at his face as you whispered.
“So what?”, he grinned, “You’re too cute to resist, honey.” You couldn’t handle it, so you just rested your forehead against his chest to hide your blushing cheeks. A part of you just didn’t understand how he was so confident all the time, the other was just drooling over the fact that he was.
You ended up leaning against him for the rest of the ride, and you told yourself that it was just because it was the easiest way to not fall to the ground but you also just wanted to be close to him.
Once you reached the right station it was pretty much only you two who got off. It was an older looking station out on the countryside.
“Where are we?”, you asked and breathed in the fresh air.
“Just out in the middle of nowhere.”, he shrugged, “Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.”
“When you say that it really sounds like you don’t.”, you chuckled.
“Trust me, darling.”, he smiles at you and holds out his hand, “Let’s get going, we don’t have all day.”
You walked hand in hand on a graveled path by fields of tall grass and flowers. When you were about to pass a bakery Izuku stopped.
“Let’s get something to eat, we’ll be here for a while.”, he smiled at you.
There was no one in the store but the old lady who owned it.
“Good afternoon!”, she smiled with a motherly glow which made you immediately feel warm inside.
“Good afternoon, ma’am.”, Izuku smiled back.
“Oh! You’re that pro hero, Deku! Aren’t you?”, she said as soon as Izuku walked up to the desk, “Oh, my son loves you!”
“Tell him I said hi to him, then.”, Izuku said kindly.
Once you had gotten what you needed, plus some bottled water, you went back outside. The bakery owner had tried to bargain that Izuku shouldn’t pay, since he already did so much for the country. But after some bickering back and forth he eventually got to pay.
“This smells amazing, don’t you think?”, he looked in the bag. You simply looked at him with a smile. He was so unbelievably kindhearted... and you had managed to get with him. How, was still unbeknownst to you.
“What?”, he looked back up at you with a cheeky smile.
“Nothing, nothing. Let’s keep going!”, you brushed it off quickly and followed him down the road.
Eventually you parted with the path and headed for a wooded area, which was probably not big enough to be called a forest but a forest was what it looked like. There came to a point where you had to cross a body of water. It wasn’t all too big, but you definitely couldn’t jump over it. You looked down the small river and noticed it was leading to a bigger lake.
“There isn’t a bridge anywhere or something?”, you asked as you looked around.
“Probably, but this is a lot more fun.”, Izuku led you to a big log that was laying right above the water.
“Izuku, if I go over that I’ll fall in.”, you said.
“No you won’t. I’ll catch you.”, he started walking on the log, “Look, it’s sturdy too!”
“I don’t know...”, you sighed.
“C’mon!”, he held out his hand, “Trust me, you won’t fall.” With a shaky breath you took his hand and let him lead you over the log. It was quite sturdy, as he said. And as he said, whenever you were about to slip he was right there to catch you.
“Okay that was a little bit fun...”, you admitted when you had reached the other side.
“See? Who needs a bridge when you have that?”, he grinned, “Let’s go, we just need to walk a bit longer!”
As you walked through the tiny forest you started seeing another body of water, much smaller than the river and the lake you had seen before. Once you reached the place you saw that it was a bigger pond, connected to the lake by a little waterfall. The water was clear, you could see the bottom of it. Surrounding it was simply grass and not too many trees that wasn’t at least 20 feet from the pond. Those trees had long hanging branches, which were building a sort of wall around the pond that made it feel more intimate.
“Woah...”, you gawked at the area around you.
“Do you like it?”, Izuku asked, as if it wasn’t obvious, and put the blanket down on the ground.
“It’s gorgeous!”, you exclaimed happily. You looked over at Izuku who patted for you to lay down on the blanket beside him, which you happily did. 
“Where did you find this place?”, you asked as he put a few strands of hair behind your ear and softly caressed your cheek.
“It’s a secret.”, he smiled, “But I’m glad you like it.”
“Who wouldn’t?”, you looked around you with awe in your eyes, “It’s beautiful!”
“Yeah, it is...”, he said. When you looked back over at him he was looking at you. There was something in his eyes that you couldn’t recognize. You tilted your head, as if you were silently questioning him.
“Do you wanna go for a swim?”, he asked out of the blue.
“What?”, you chuckled, “We don’t have any swimwear with us...”
“Go nude.”, he shrugged and sat up.
“No! What if someone walked by?”, you exclaimed.
“I’m kidding!”, he laughed, “Just do it in your underwear.” He pulled off his shirt and you admired the way his muscles moved with every stretch and bend of his arms. His arms were an entirely different thing... the scars on his arms were fading, though you could still see them clearly. That didn’t really matter at all, he was still fucking gorgeous. You never knew you liked arms so much until you saw his. Izuku turned his head to look back at you. When he saw that you clearly admiring him he let out a laugh. Your eyes shot back up to his face as soon as you heard it.
“Are you just gonna sit there biting your lip or are you gonna get undressed with me?”, he arched one of his eyebrows.
“You can’t really blame me for looking.”, you smiled and started taking off your sweater.
Soon enough you were both just standing in your underwear by the small lake. You looked over at him and he looked over at you. Suddenly he got a michevious look in his eyes and you started backing up.
“Izuku, no.”, you chuckled nervously, “Please don’t, it’s probably freezing.” He made grabby hands towards you which made you start running. Though, it didn’t really help. You can’t run away from a pro hero. He obviously caught you pretty quickly and carried you bridal style towards the lake, though it wasn’t in the very romantic way.
“NO! STOP IT!”, you squealed and tried to get away from him, but to no avail. Izuku threw you into the lake and, just as you thought, it was freezing in the water. You stood up and pushed your now wet hair out of your face, only for Izuku to jump in next to you.
“You little shit!”, you laughed and tried to splash water at him. Of course, he splashed back at you but his hands were much larger than your’s so he over powered you pretty quickly. Izuku got closer to you and wrapped his arms around your waist. He lifted you up ever so slightly and spun you around, making you laugh in the process. Your laughter was cut short when he pressed his lips to yours in a passionate kiss. Your fingers tangled themselves in his hair as you pressed your body against him in an attempt to deepen the kiss.
“You drive me insane, angel.”, he muttered against your lips.
“Well then I can’t be much of an angel, can I?”, you grinned as you wrapped your legs around his torso to keep yourself sterdy.
“You look like an angel when you’re in my bed...”, he nuzzled your nose with his, “... with your hair around your head like a halo and those sweet noices you make, you sound like fucking heaven.” His fingers dug into the skin on your sides, making you squeal at the tickling feeling.
“Izuku!”, you laugh loudly as you try, once again, to get out of his grip, “Stop it!”
When you got out of the water Izuku wrapped his denim jacket around your shoulders before laying back down on the blanket.
“I don’t want you to get a cold because of me.”, was his explanation.
“I won’t die from a cold, babe.”, you couldn’t seem to stop smiling.
“Well, it’ll kill me if I know you got it because of me.”, he watched as you got on top of him, your legs on either side of his lower torso.
“You’re out there saving the world and you’re scared thay I’ll get a cold?”, you layed your head on his chest, “Besides, we can share the jacket.” You spread the jacket out over the both of you the best you could. He let out a low chuckle and you could feel the vibrations in his chest. Izuku let one of his hands travel to your hair where he softly massaged your head.
“Hey...”, he whispered and planted a kiss on the top of your head.
“Yeah?”, you muttered out sleepily.
“... I love you too.”, he whispered and suddenly you were fully awake.
“What?”, you sat up and looked down on him. He was completely serious.
“I said; I love you too.”, he smiled softly, “I heard you, last night.”
“Shit, you did?”, you got off of him and sat down beside him instead. Izuku sat up and tried to get your eye contact, but you were strictly staring down at the blanket and hugging your knees up to your chest.
“I thought you were asleep...”, you took a deep breath, “I’m sorry...”
“You’ve got nothing to be sorry for.”, he pulled your body in so you could rest your head on his chest, “I get it if it’s hard to say for you. I just wanted you to know that I feel the same.”
“It’s just that- I... I’m scared.”, you admitted, “My last relationship wasn’t the greatest... and I don’t want that to happen with you.”
“It’s alright.”, he pressed a kiss to your temple, “I promise you it won’t.” You wanted to believe him so bad, but there was something holding you back from doing so. A part that was still so damn hurt over the past.
“I really want to believe that, but...”, you couldn’t say anything else. What was there to say?
“Let’s take it slow, okay? I won’t meet your friends until you’re ready and in the meantime I’ll tell you I love you every day until you believe it.”, he smiled and succesfully made you laugh.
“Sounds good.”, you smiled. He flipped you over, making you lay beneath him and just looked at you for a while and you did the same. You tried to memorize every part of his face, like you had tried many times before but now it was somehow different.
“I love you.”, he whispered, making you smile, “I fucking love you.” He peppered your face with kisses, whispering out “I love you”, in between every other kiss.
“Okay, okay!”, you laughed. Somehow you managed to flip him over, so that you were now on top of him. It was a trick he had taught you while you were... in bed. He looked at you proudly and let his hands go to your hips.
“I...”, you took a deep breath, “... love you too.” You could physically see his heart swelling as his smile grew even wider and brighter. And like that it was official for you. You had signed the contract, and now you were legally in love with him. For you, speaking it out loud meant that it was real... but maybe this time you wanted it to be.

September
Feyre didn't really like the college library.
Well, that wasn't true. She liked her part of the library. She liked browsing through the countless books and academic papers about paintings from the sixteenth century. She loved the little booths were you could install your computer and still  have space to put down books and papers. And most of all, she loved that one booth in the far left corner, with a window with a view on the small patio in front of her.
She really liked the library, and the books, and the patio. What she didn't like was the view at the other side of the patio.
Because the library on the other side was the language section, and people there always seemed to work in group, and loudly. She couldn't even hear them, but still, it annoyed her to see them move around and laugh when she was trying to focus.
But she really liked her little booth on the far left corner, and she didn't want to give it up, so she kept working there even with the people on the other side of the patio.
October
God, that essay was going to kill her.
Sighing loudly, Feyre sat back on her chair and closed her eyes for a second. Just a second. Or maybe it had been a minute. Or more.
She didn't know how long she'd spent with her eyes closed, but when she opened them, she found a guy smirking at her from the other side of the patio.
She would have frowned, annoyed once again by what she saw there, except her brain didn't register her annoyance. Because that guy was gorgeous.
Short black hair sticking out on his head as if he'd passed his hand in it one too many times, broad shoulders and a strong built, and brown skin that contrasted with striking blue eyes. Eyes she could have lost herself in forever if she let it happen.
But he was still smirking, and it was getting on her nerves. So she crossed her arms on her chest and raised an eyebrow at him, hoping to make him look away. His smile only got bigger.
She saw him look down to grab a pen and paper, and she thought he'd moved  on from her when he looked back up and splayed the paper against his window.
You know your book is upside down, right?
She stared at the words for way too long, and finally looked down to her desk, realizing the book she'd pulled up against the window was indeed upside down. She'd been studying a detail in a painting and had needed to see it that way.
She grabbed a pen and started writing a very lengthy explanation about her thought process, but stopped herself midway. Why was she justifying herself to him? She didn't know him and didn't care what he thought about her. So she grabbed another paper and wrote quickly before putting it on the window.
I do. You know libraries are meant to study, right?
She saw him laugh, and he answered almost immediately.
It's hard to study with such a captivating view in front of me.
She stared at his answer, unable to think of what to say next. Was he talking about her? She was wearing an old grey sweatshirt and her hair was held up in a bun.  She wasn't even wearing makeup. Or maybe he was mocking her. 'Captivating' wasn't necessarily a compliment after all.
After a long minute of internal debate, she decided on ignoring him, and went back to her book. She really needed to finish that essay.
November
The stranger was back at the library most days, but he was alone. In the section where most people were working in groups. And she'd caught him throwing quick glances at her a few times, when he thought she wasn't looking. She should've been annoyed, but if she was being honest, she too found herself looking out the window more than usual when he was sitting there.
There hadn't been any more notes between them, but his comment about finding her captivating had stuck with her, and sometimes, she found herself mindlessly arranging her hair or changing her posture slightly when she knew he was over there.
Not today though.
Because today was the last day before her midterms, and she was late in her studies, and she couldn't have cared less if he was looking at her or not. She hadn't washed her hair in a week, and she was actually wearing a ridiculous onesie her roommate had gotten her as a goofy present and she had sworn never to wear outside of her bedroom.
Oh well.
She was lost in a commentary on female painters in France in 1748 when a movement across the patio caught her eyes.
Nice overalls
She rolled her eyes and grabbed something to write.
They're unicorn onesies
He laughed.
Way more sophisticated, you're right. I should've known better
She answered in under fifteen seconds.
Less than 24h before exam, no time to argue with you
And she went back to her book. 
When she looked back up a moment later, she saw that he was gone. But he'd stuck a paper on the glass. 
Good luck
December
They started talking more after that day. Well, talking was a bit of an exaggeration to describe what they were doing. Sticking papers on windows wasn't exactly what she would have called a normal conversation.
He was always the one starting it, and she felt grateful for it. Because for all that she loved writing back, she didn't think she would be able to grab the pen first.
The snow had started to fall over the weekend, and it was covering the patio between them. The night had fallen already, even though it was only 5 p.m., and the only lights were the ones from their respective sides of the library. They hadn't talked that day, he was focused on the screen of his computer, visibly absorbed in his work.
Normally, Feyre wouldn't have written anything. They didn't speak everytime, and she was okay with it. But today was special. She really wanted to talk to him today.
What are you working on?
She waited for him to see the paper for a long minute until finally he lifted his eyes to her and she saw him taking in her words.
Economy final essay due tomorrow morning. Still haven't started it
She let out a startled laugh.
Aren't you a bit late?
He smiled at her.
Not my first time winging it!
And then he wrote on a second paper, before she had time to answer.
What about you? Thought you'd already finished everything
She had. Three days earlier. And she hadn't wanted him to remember that. But of course he had, and now she had to tell him why she'd come.
Didn't feel like being alone tonight
A small frown on his forehead.
Oh?
It's my birthday today
And because he just stared at her with a small smile and a puzzled look, she took back her paper and added:
My roommate's out of town and I had nothing waiting for me at home.  Hoped you'd be here
He smiled, a genuine one this time, and she felt a feeling of joy spread through her body at the sight.
Happy birthday then
And then,
Do you want me to come over to your side?
She felt her throat tighten. It had always been a silent rule between them. They stayed on their side, they didn't meet. She didn't even know his name. And now she was conflicted, because she really really wanted him to hug her. But…
Their little conversation felt like a dream, a small bubble of calm in the constant storm that was her life. And if he came over to her side, the bubble wouldn't hold. She didn't want that. Not yet.
It's fine, thanks
January
She arrived at her booth one Thursday to find a package waiting for her, with a note pinned on it. She knew the handwriting well by now.
Sorry I came over to your side, but I found this over the holidays and thought of you.
She sat down and looked over, but he wasn't there. Was it on purpose? Maybe he didn't want to see her reaction. She gingerly grabbed the box and opened it, to find a present that made her chuckle. It was a blue sweater with a unicorn drawn at the front.
She felt heat creep up her cheeks. He'd thought of her. Outside of their conversation, he was thinking of her.
Just like she was thinking of him, almost every night. Of his gorgeous smile and the way he'd pass his hand through his hair when he tried to focus, and the fact that he loved to go to the cinema and had written her reviews about his favorite movie so long that she'd struggled to read it through the glass.
She thought of him often, and now he knew that he did too, and he'd given her this amazing thoughtful present and she couldn't even say thank you.
She toyed with the idea of going to his side and leave a word. But she wasn't ready for that. So she decided she'd wear the sweater the next time she'd see him.
February
I'd like to hear your laugh
The note came without warning, one cold winter morning of February. He'd told her about some embarrassing thing that had happened in his class that morning, and she'd laughed.  And then he'd written this, and now it had been a long minute and she still hadn't answered.
He looked back down and added something.
In my head it's the most beautiful sound I can imagine. I'd like to hear it for real
She felt herself blushing. Because she too had started to imagine his voice, like a low rumble, vibrating with intensity, but soft and warm at the same time. And she wanted to hear it.
So she gathered her things, got up, and without a look at him, walked away.
Rhysand
She'd walked away.
For months, he's been longing for the weird kind of conversation they'd established, loving the moments when they talked and cherishing every stolen glance in her direction.
That beautiful girl, with long, brown, messy hair, and a unicorn onesie. The girl with clear eyes that seemed to be blue, and freckles on her nose.
He'd loved their moments together, and he'd wanted more, but he felt that she didn't want more. For whatever reason he'd never dared to ask, she wanted to keep their relationship as it was.
But today she'd been so pretty in her red winter dress and he'd cheeks flushed by the cold, he hadn't resisted telling her how he truly felt.
And now she was gone.
He buried his head in his arms on the table, and let his mind wonder. God, he could kick himself for being so stupid and ruin everything. He'd known she was shy and yet he'd pushed and -
"I really don't know how you can work on this place, it's so noisy," a feminine voice interrupted his thought, and his head shot up. He looked to his left, and there she was, standing in front of him, her bag on her shoulder, her hair as messy as usual, a smile on her lips. Not believing his eyes, he got up, and found himself towering over her.
Her eyes were grey, not blue. And she had more freckles than he'd realized.
"I… I can't focus when there's no noise around." His voice came out a mere whisper and he mentally slapped himself. One chance to make a good first impression and he was ruining it.
But she was still smiling.
"I'm Feyre."
"Rhysand."
They both stayed silent for a moment, staring into each other's eyes as if they were seeing each other for the first time. Then Feyre talked again.
"So, Rhysand. Should we grab a coffee?"
Send me prompts!!!

Tumblr media
Sandy sat next to Arthur in the hospital room. His mother laid next to the two of them. Gently comforting Arthur, Sandy rubbed his back. His eyes stayed focused on his mother.
"She'll be fine, sweetheart. I'm gonna go get a coffee. Do you want one?" Sandy got up, kissing Arthur's forehead.
"Yeah," He whispered, gently.
Sandy walked down to the hospital's cafeteria, grabbing two black coffees.
"So in a world where everyone thinks they can do my job. Get a load of this guy, who thinks that if you just keep laughing, people will think you're funny." Murray Franklin spoke through the television screen. Sandy looked over at Arthur, who was holding onto his mother's hand.
Sandy never liked Murray Franklin, it always reminded her of her uncle's cigars. It made her shiver. She knew how much Murray meant to Arthur, even though she didn't care about the guy all that much, she loved seeing Arthur happy.
"You know, haha, I hated school, ha, when I was a kid. I, ha ha, h-hated school. My mother would say 'You should enjoy it, one day you'll have to work for a living.' No, I won't, ma. I'm gonna be a comedian."
Arthur's eyes were glued on the television screen. He turned over to Sandy, and grabbed her hand, pointing at the TV to prove it was him. She smiled, holding his hand.
"Heh, you should've listened to your mother." Murray said, as the audience roared with laughter. "Play another clip, Bobby. I love this guy."
Another clip of Arthur's stand up began to play.
"When I told people I was gonna be a comedian, everyone laughed at me. Well, no one's laughing now."
"You can say that again, pal." Murray commented.
Arthur's joy quickly became anger. He let out of Sandy's hand.
"Now, this is my personal favorite. Some girl runs up on stage, and kisses the guy. Makes me think she's an actress getting paid to do it."
It was Sandy running up onstage, kissing Arthur. There was a bunch of ooos and ahhs from the audience.
Sandy glared at the TV. "What an asshole." She mumbled, under her breath. Sandy looked over at Arthur.
Arthur didn't look at her. He had a strong grimace on his face.
"Are you real?" He asked. He turned around to Sandy. "Or are you just a 'paid actress'?" Arthur spat out the word 'actress.' Arthur's emerald eyes bored into Sandy head.
Sandy smiled gently at Arthur. "Darling, I'm as real as you are now. I'm a real life, breathing human being. I love you, Arthur." Sandy held Arthur's hand close to her chest.
Arthur felt frozen in place as he felt Sandy's heartbeat steady in his palm. He leaned in the crook of her neck, keeping his hand on her chest.
"Let's go, Artie." Sandy smiled, kissing his head.
"Ok." He whispered, softly.
Sandy led Arthur to his apartment. "Are you sure you don't want me to stay with you in your apartment? I'd be more than happy to." She asked, politely.
"I'll be ok." Arthur jiggled his keys opening his front door. Sandy turned away, walking towards the elevator.
"Hey, Sandy." Arthur called.
Sandy turned around. "Yeah." She called back.
"Could you stay?" Arthur asked, meekly.
She smiled. "Of, course."
Sandy sat comfortably on the couch with Arthur on her lap.
"Fuck Thomas Wayne and Fuck the system." An angry protester shouted on the television. It seemed like Thomas Wayne was all over the news, as well as the riots and the protesters.
Sandy wasn't paying attention. Her hands subconsciously ran through Arthur's hair.
"So, Wayne manor didn't go well?" She asked, slowly falling asleep.
"No, it didn't. Maybe tomorrow." Arthur mumbled against her thighs, watching closely to the television screen.
"Maybe." Sandy repeated. "Tomorrow's that rally. That sure sounds like fun. I never did like Thomas Wayne."
Arthur lifted his head up from her lap. "Why not?"
Sandy shrugged, not answering his question.
She looked up at the TV screen. "My uncle died today." Sandy said, aloud. Her face held no emotion.
Arthur looked up at her. His eyes filled up with remorse. "Oh. That must be hard." Arthur got up to her eye level.
Sandy started laughing hysterically. "Ha, you know what's funny, Art. He can't hurt me anymore. Just like Dennis. Those poor, poor, fucking bastards."
Arthur got off of Sandy's lap. He looked at her in shock. Her laughter was uncharacteristic.
"Why should we feel sorry? Because I'll tell you one thing, Art. I haven't felt a single bit of remorse since those fuckers croaked." Sandy's laughter subsided.
It clicked in Arthur. "Wow." Arthur's laughter was triggered from Sandy's.
"Laugh it up, baby. Life is a comedy. That's why people laugh, because laughter takes your breath away. Much like a kiss." Sandy picked up a cigarette that was lying on the floor.
Arthur continued his laughter. "Y-you're right, Sandy. Ha, ha, ha."
She smirked holding the cigarette in her mouth.
His laughter subsided. He looked up at Sandy with pain in his eyes. "You're just like me. I've never met someone like you. Someone that understands." Arthur looked down at Sandy's arm. He saw the burn in the center of her arm. "What happened there?" He pointed to it.
She lit the cigarette in her mouth and looked at him shrugging.
Arthur held Sandy's arm. "Please don't." He kissed Sandy's burn. "Please, dear."
Arthur's pitiful expression was too much for Sandy. She held him close and broke down crying. "I love you, Arthur."
He smiled returning the favor. "I love you too." He kissed her cheek gently.
Sandy laid on Arthur's chest, feeling his heartbeat. His heart made a soft beat lulling her too sleep.
The sun shined through the window, beaming on Sandy's forehead. Her nose twitched as she opened her eyes to her surroundings. She was laying in bed next to a sleeping Arthur. Sandy smiled at his sleeping figure, leaning over giving him a kiss on his forehead. Arthur's sleepy ocean green eyes slowly opened.
"Good morning." Sandy smiled, kissing his cheek.
"Hmmm." Arthur mumbled, pulling Sandy closer.
"Hey, are you heading to the rally tonight?" She fluffed his hair a little bit, trying to get his attention.
Arthur mumbled something that sounded like a yes.
Sandy smiled. She got off the bed. Arthur made a faint whine.
"What? I have to get my stuff from my apartment." She giggled. "I'm off from work, but I still gotta check my messages. I'll be back."
Arthur lifted his head, tilting it slightly at Sandy. "You promise?"
Sandy kissed his head. "I promise."
She walked out of the bedroom, giving Arthur a small glance.
Sandy walked up to her apartment, using the stairs. The elevator was getting fixed, so she couldn't use that. Once she entered her apartment, Sandy went to her kitchen. The rats had gotten into her fridge and chewed up her paper towels and all her remaining food. She sighed, rubbing her temples. Sandy tapped on the answering machine.
"You have (1) new message." The same monotonous voice said.
"Voicemail 1:
Sandy? Hi! It's your cousin, Deliah. I've sure you've heard about our dad. Destiny has been been living out in the country for a while, but she'll be home in time for the wake. Since, Daddy's funeral isn't until tomorrow, I wanted ask if we could hang. It hasn't been the same since you've moved to the bad part of Gotham. Not to mention with the riots going on, it'd be nice to catch up."
The message ended.
Sandy rolled her eyes. She picked up the phone and dialed some numbers.
"Sandy! Hi Sugar! How are you?" Deliah's Jersey accent called through the phone.
"I've been fine, Dee. How about you?" Sandy said, tired. She had played through the motions in her head.
Dee wasn't a sort of trustworthy person. She had a long history of drug abuse, and was a trust fund baby at it's finest.
"Oh, I've been better. Ya know, I'm heading to this bar, tonight, down by Wayne Hall. You should come." Dee said, excitedly through the phone.
"I don't know, Dee." Sandy sighed.
"Come on, Sandy. I know tensions are high right now, but you should really loosen up. It'll be great for ya. Who knows maybe we can find you a lucky guy?" Dee teased on the phone.
Sandy scoffed. "I think I'm all set."
"Sandy, please. I'm begging. It'll be fun. I promise." Dee whined.
"Ugh. Fine, okay. If you'll excuse me, I have to get going." Sandy groaned, rubbing her temples.
"Great! See ya at 6." Dee hung up the phone.
Sandy gently put the phone back on the kitchen counter. She had cleaned up her kitchen, and decided to head back downstairs again.
Arthur had already gotten up. He cleaned up around his apartment. He heard a familiar knock at the door. Arthur walked over and opened the door.
He smiled widely. "Hey, I was beginning to worry about you." Arthur said, half jokingly.
"Yeah, one of my cousins, Dee, called. She wants me to come with her to some bar." Sandy sighed, frustrated while sitting on the couch.
Arthur's eyebrows furrowed into a frown. "You're not going, are you?"
"I didn't say no." Sandy shrugged.
Arthur looked down, turning his back to Sandy. "Ok." He said, coolly.
She put her hand on his shoulder. "Hey, don't worry, dear. It's near Wayne Hall. It will be lame." Her reassurance wasn't enough.
"Uh-huh." He answered back, sharply.
"Arthur, babe, please don't act like this. I know it's unexpected, but Dee kept pestering me, besides the funeral's tomorrow and I-"
Arthur cut Sandy off with a glare. He walked up to her and hugged her tightly.
"You are mine." He growled through his teeth.
Sandy's eyes widened. "Arthur I-"
Arthur cupped her face, and cut her off again with a kiss. Sandy kissed back, putting her hands around his neck. She back up into a wall. Arthur pulled away.
Sandy smirked. "Do you really think that would convince me not to go?"
Arthur looked down, backing away from Sandy. "Yeah." He smirked back. "Did it work?"
"Almost." Sandy giggled, kissing his forehead.
Arthur frowned, again.
Sandy gently pet Arthur's head. "Hey, I'll be back before the rally. I love you, Art." She kissed his forehead.
Arthur wanted to trust her. He felt happiness around her. He didn't want that happiness to go away.
"I love you too, Sandy. You're my everything." Arthur's eyes dilated.

prompt: shane finding out that ryan is a seer who can see ghosts, but shane doesn't believe him at first but he eventually does? you can change it up if you like if this is too much! love your writing
Thank you for your kind words I hope you like this! I’m on mobile rn so sorry if anything is a lil wonky I’ll try to fix it when I get off vacation!
——
It starts out small.
Having worked with Ryan as long as Shane had, he’s pretty confident in his arsenal of Useless Ryan Trivia. He knows Ryan likes to work out when he’s stressed, knows his favorite brand of popcorn is the fancy one that had to be made on a stove instead of in the microwave and knows that he has the tendency to talk to himself. Like a lot. So when he wakes up in the middle of the night to Ryan softly mumbling he thinks nothing of it at first.
They’d just gotten back from a location, a small house out in the middle of West Bumblefuck, Missouri where a man had snapped one day and killed his wife and children as they slept. A sad case but not Satanic as Ryan had been so quick to claim.
The investigation had been relatively uneventful aside from the usual nonsense EVPs they had captured on the Screeching Hell Box but Ryan had still returned to their shared hotel room keyed up and twitchy.
He kept casting furtive glances to dark corners of their room and looking over his shoulder, probably thinking himself inconspicuous but which Shane picked up on right away. He tried not to tease Ryan too much, knowing how affected he could get after their investigations, yet the pull was too strong to resist entirely.
“You okay, man? You look like you’ve seen a ghost.” Shane said, giving him what could only be described as a shiteating grin.
“Fuck off, squatch. That place just gave me some bad vibes, y’know?”
“Again with the vibes? What are you, psychic now or something?”
Shane scoffed and Ryan laughed along mechanically.
“Oh come on, Ryan. We’re fine. If the ghouls were really that upset they would’ve squared up to me ages ago. Given me the ol’ one two.” He nudged Ryan slightly and smiled when he seemed to loosen up a bit.
“You’re right, who could pass up the chance to knock your limp noodle body around. I can barely suppress the urge.”
“Aw, Ryan. I’m touched. If you wanted to get your hands on me you could’ve just asked.”
Ryan snorted.
“You wish.”
Mood lightened, Ryan seemed fine to go to sleep. Seemed being the keyword as Ryan was once again awake and probably telling his camera all about the spooky sound of footsteps in a well inhabited place. Ooooo.
Shane listened closely, too exhausted to get up just yet if Ryan was at a manageable level of fear and would be able to calm himself down without Shanes’ help.
“You’ll be okay. Everything’s alright.”
There. Ryan was talking himself down and didn’t actually sound at all upset. Shane let himself relax and almost immediately felt himself falling back asleep.
“Hey, no buddy. Please don’t cry. You’re alright. Go back home, your mom’s probably looking for you right now.”
What? Shanes brows furrowed and he was fully awake once more.
“It’s okay. He won’t be there. He’s gone, I promise. Please, buddy? For me? You don’t want your mom to be sad do you?”
Ryan paused as if waiting for a response and Shane strained his ears, too. Maybe he was on the phone? Or talking in his sleep? But there was no light piercing through the dark of their room and for as long as Shane had known him Ryan had never once talked in his sleep. So what was going on?
Across the room from him, Ryan laughed, light and airy.
“That’s what I thought. Now go on. You’ll be alright. Goodbye, little guy!”
Shane laid quietly in his bed, waiting for the other shoe to drop, for Ryan to yell “sike!” and spin his camera around for his reaction. All he heard, however, was Ryan heaving a deep sigh before shifting around to get more comfortable.
When nothing more happened, Shane finally allowed his confusion to succumb to his exhaustion and drifted off, promising himself to confront Ryan about it in the morning.
——“Hey, little guy how’d you sleep last night. You look, quite frankly, like shit.”
“Damn, Madej. You really know how to sweet talk a guy. Should I strip now or later?” Ryan deadpanned.
“Any excuse to lose the shirt, huh? But really, you look tired. Are you alright?” Shane asked, subtly trying to get closure for last night’s events.
“It was alright. Had a little trouble sleeping, though. Kept thinking about the case. You really have to be a shitty person to do that to your family, huh?”
“Oh for sure. You gotta hop right onto the train to Sucksville for that. No transfers, nothin’. Just straight on to Sucksville, population: That Guy.”
“‘Population: That Guy’ Jesus. You really don’t even remember his name? We just talked about it yesterday!”
“Ryan, if I could remember the name of every shitty murderer to ever exist then I wouldn’t working be at Buzzfeed.”
“Oh yeah? Then where would you be?”
“Killin’ it on some super niche game show about killers from the middle of nowhere, obviously Ryan. Keep up!”
Ryan laughs, bright and loud and Shane feels his own face morph into a smile of its own.
In the end they get too distracted thinking up disturbing names for Shane’s imaginary game show for him to bring up Ryan’s night once more.
——Eventually, Shane pushes that night to the back of his mind, rationalizing it as sleep talking and leaving it at that. There’s not much else to explain it away with and Shane’s pretty content with his answer.
Shane, however, doesn’t completely forget about the incident. He finds himself paying closer attention to Ryan than before, something he previously thought impossible.
He drags his eyes over him at every possible opportunity, strains his ears to scan for his voice and spends way to much time thinking over their interactions.
If Shane didn’t know any better he’d say he’d developed a crush on Ryan. But that was dumb because he was a grown man and that was his best friend. He was simply… researching, compiling notes like he would for an episode of Ruining History. Delving in deep to get all the right facts and throw out the bullshit would take an attentive eye, of course.
And through his observations Shane had made several slightly worrying discoveries.
Ryan was talking to himself more, forome. Normally, Shane could blame it on the stress from the pressure of planning out a new season but Ryan’s research was going off without a hitch. Plus, it was almost never at work or at his desk.
Sometimes, Shane and Ryan would be scouting out a location and the second Ryan believed Shane was out of earshot he would start muttering under his breath, gesturing and looking over his shoulder as if afraid to get caught.
Ryan, he noticed, also refused to stare at one place for too long. He would either focus all his attention on Shane or his eyes would dart around whatever room they were in, never settling, as if avoiding eye contact. At first Shane had written it off as a result of Ryan’s nervous energy and inability to hold still and then after coming to terms with his feelings for Ryan he had hoped it meant that maybe Ryan felt the same way. But Shane decided that, no, something about it felt off.
Maybe it was the way Ryan would almost seem fearful about taking his eyes away from someone else’s face. Or maybe it was the times that his gaze would catch on something, eyes sparking with something akin to recognition and sadness before they would quickly scurry to the next spot. Shane wasn’t quite sure but it worried him.
The final straw was after yet another shoot at a haunted location. This time a young girl, Ciara Fisher, had died in a house fire and was said to haunt the place, crying at night and clawing at the doors in an attempt to escape the fire she still experienced each night.
Shane had woken in the middle of the night to use the bathroom only to experience fear gripping his chest as he saw Ryan’s empty sleeping bag beside him.
He got up in a hurry, switching on his flashlight and creeping across the house quietly in search for his partner.
“Ryan?” He called out in a hushed, panicked voice. “Where are you?” No response.
Worried, Shane continued his search. Faintly, he thought he heard whispering coming from down the hall, the site where Ryan had said the little girl had been trapped. When he turned the corner he saw her bedroom door wide open with a faint light emitting from it.
Quietly, Shane approached the room, keeping his footsteps light in case it wasn’t Ryan and instead some intruder who wanted to hurt them.
As he got closer, however, Shane was able to easily make out Ryan’s voice in the silent room.
“Wow, you tied that bow all by yourself? I’m impressed!” A pause. “Of course I’ll miss you, sweetie, but don’t you think your parents miss you more?”
Shane peeked in and saw Ryan seated on the ground, body turned slightly to face a corner of the room. He could just barely make out Ryan’s soft smile in the dim moonlight streaming through the grimy window.
“I won’t forget you, I promise. How could I ever forget meeting a real life princess! Oh, a fairy princess? My bad, your majesty! Oh, no no come on sweetie. No more crying. No need to be sad, I’ll see you again one day. That’s more like it. Goodbye Princess Ciara.”—-
Oh. Oh shit. Ryan thought. That he was talking. To ghosts. Oh shit.
That was not good. At all. On no planet was this okay. He had to talk to him, had to get him some help. He couldn’t- wouldn’t - let some show on Youtube irreversibly fuck with his best friends’ psyche like that.
Shane backed out of the room and all but ran for his sleeping bag. When they got back from this trip they were gonna have a nice, loooong talk.
—-“Ryan, we need to talk.”
“Uh oh, are you breaking up with me, Shane?” Shane remained straight faced even as his stomach fluttered stupidly at the implication that he and Ryan were dating.
“I’m serious Ryan. I- I think you need to stop doing Unsolved.”
“Very funny, Shane. Let me just grow another 2 feet in my sleep while I’m at it.” Ryan rolled his eyes, before turning back to the tv, popcorn in hand.
Shane grabbed the remote and muted the movie, determined to have this talk despite Ryan’s complaints.
“Ryan, I really think you need to take a break from Unsolved. I know its your baby but seriously, mental health comes first.”
“Mental health- what does that even mean? Sure, I get scared sometimes but so what? It’s not like I’m about to suffer from a psychic break or something…” Ryan trailed off, eyes narrowing, “holy shit do you think I’ve finally, like, snapped or something? What the fuck, man!”
“Ryan, it’s just that…”
“No, fuck you, man. I don’t think, like, the Devil’s been whispering in my ear, telling me to clickbait articles to get extra ad revenue or whatever. I’m fi-“
“I heard you talking to the little girl, Ryan! And the boy in Missouri. And you’ve been acting weird and skittish and I just- I just want you to get better. I need you to be okay.”
Shane’s voice was breaking now, trailing off as the thought of Ryan not getting the help he needed hit him full force. Ryan lost the anger he initially felt, softening at the sight of Shane wilting in front of him.
“Shane I’m not- I can’t,” He took a deep breath before composing himself, wincing at the thought of what he was about to say, “I appreciate your concern but I have no idea what you’re talking about.”
“What?” Shane’s head shot up in surprise, “what do you mean?”
“I mean, I have no clue what you’re talking about Shane. You know I would never talk to a ghost or some shit like that. Maybe… maybe you’re the one who needs help right now. Or maybe you dreamt it?”
“Really? Are you really doing this to me, Ryan?”
“Doing what, Shane. I’m just saying you don’t seem to have been sleeping well either-“
“That’s because I’ve been up all night worrying about you! Because you’re talking to people who aren’t there! And I’m worried about you but if you’re gonna stand there and- and fucken gaslight me then fine! I’ll quit Unsolved and you won’t have to worry about lying to me anymore.”
Shane turned to leave, anger and disbelief clouding his judgement. He was halfway to the door of Ryan’s apartment when he felt a strong hand on his forearm.
“Wait, please don’t go. I’m sorry that I lied to you like that. I’m just…scared. I don’t know how to talk about this.”
“Ryan. I’m your best friend. You should never be ashamed to talk about your mental health.”
“That’s just the problem, Shane,” he whispered, “it has nothing to do with my mental health. I’m a Seer. I can see ghosts.”
Shane’s heart broke.
“No, stop it, Shane. Stop making that face. I’m not, I don’t know, schizophrenic or something. Trust me I’ve been to my fair share of doctors to make sure I’m not making this up to know.”
“Ryan, you can’t- I mean. That’s not- ghosts aren’t real. You have to understand that. Maybe it’s something you didn’t have checked, like-“
“I knew it. You don’t believe me. God, I’m so stupid.” He started cleaning the room, sweeping stray popcorn into the bowls and shutting off the tv.
“I think it’s best if you go home.”
“Ryan, that’s not fair. I’m just trying to help you.”
“Well, if your idea of help is trying to get me committed then I don’t want it!”
“How do you think I feel? The person I’m in love with is losing his goddamn mind and he won’t even consider getting help.”
Pause.
“You’re in love with me?”
“That’s not- I didn’t. Fuck.”
Ryan smiled softly, heart soaring.
“You’re in love with me!” Ryan was beaming before he took a deep breath, trying to compose himself.
“Okay, let me try something. Let me prove it to you.”
“What? How? How could you possibly prove it to me? It’s not real.”
“You’re grandma loves you a lot, y’know?” Ryan started, apropos of nothing, “She thinks you’re real funny, Lord knows why.”
“Don’t.”
“She’s really sweet. She likes to hang around the set and watch you do your thing sometimes. Says she’s waiting for you to get your head out your ass. Never knew what she meant by that but I think I can guess now.”
“Ryan, this isn’t funny. This is fucked up, man.”
“Shane, please. I’m not trying to hurt you,” he was more solemn now, less light hearted and more serious, handling it with the respect he felt they both deserved.
“She always wanted me to tell you she’s so sorry for missing your school concerts but she loved when you would come to her hospital room and show her videos of you playing and tell her funny stories. I kept telling her I couldn’t, that you wouldn’t believe me, but she wanted you to know so badly how much she loves you.”
Shane’s crying now, shoulders shaking in silent sobs and Ryan wants to move closer, to comfort him, but he isn’t sure he’s allowed.
“She loves you so much, Shane. Her mała gwiazda.”
Shane launches himself into Ryan’s arms and then they’re both crying, intertwining themselves so closely they’re almost one being.
“What the fuck, Ryan? I mean, what the fuck?”
“I know, it’s a lot to take in. I’m sorry.”
Eventually, they calm down, exhausted from the crying and the revelations. They move to lie more comfortably on the couch, Ryan lying on his side and Shane wrapped around him like a particularly clingy octopus.
“Mała gwiazda,” Shane says, breaking the silence, “it means little star in Polish. She used to call me that during the visits. It’s the only Polish I really remember now.”
Ryan just smiles at him softly, burrowing closer to his chest.
“So,” Shane says, “any other earth shattering secrets you wanna come clean with. You got abducted by a UFO recently? Getting frisky with our boy, the Mothman?”
Ryan laughs but gets quiet, turning to face Shane head on.
“Actually, yeah. Just one more.”
“Oh?” Shane hums, lifting a brow. “Hit me, baby!”
Ryan rolls his eyes fondly but keeps looking Shane in the eyes as he wraps his arms around him, resting his hands behind his neck to play with the short strands of hair there. Shane’s heart stutters and nothing, he thinks, could ever top this moment.
“I’m in love with you, too.”
Shane smiles widely, eyes crinkling with it. As he swoops down to capture Ryan’s lips with his own he thinks he could stand to be wrong more often if the outcomes were always this breathtaking.
Who needed to be skeptic when he had all he needed to believe in right here, anyways?

The Mailman is Really Attractive and Dean is Smitten
When Dean first saw the new mailman that Saturday afternoon, his body had such an immediate and visceral reaction, he had to excuse himself to his bedroom for a little quality time with his right hand.
Seriously, it was insane; nothing like that had ever happened to Dean. He only figured out that he was attracted to both guys and guys about a year ago, but he’d never even had that sort of response to a girl. And what’s worse? It was one of the best experiences he’s ever had jacking off.
Like, no shit, that mailman was the hottest human Dean ever laid eyes on, and he wasn’t even Dean’s type! Dean had always gone for the petite guys, because you know, he was a dom. Well, with guys he was. He had actually started experimenting letting girls top him, and much to his own embarrassment, he actually really liked it. There was something about someone else being in control that was hot as fuck. But, just girls. He wanted nothing in his asshole, ever, thank you very much. But anyway, even though he only ever had pursued twink-types, the mailman was buff as fuck. He had looked like he was about Dean’s height, and the summer heat-induced sweat made for a uniform that clung to his body just so Dean could see rippling muscle underneath. And the shorts, no matter how silly looking for being as short as they were, let Dean see the legs of either a runner who swims in his spare time or just the legs of an actual Adonis. And his forearms! God, so strong and tanned and--Dean noticed he was developing another situation down south and forced himself to concentrate on gross things like old people making out or his brother Sam’s face. Good, good; the situation went back down.
~***~
An uneventful week later, and Dean was back looking out his front window, shamelessly watching and waiting for the new mailman. He had no idea if he was actually going to come around again; hell, he might have just been filling in that one day for the old guy that Dean normally saw bringing the mail.
But Dean’s curiosity was rewarded, because after about ten minutes of casual spying, he noticed the mailman walking up the sidewalk with his messenger bag over one shoulder, radiating sexual appeal. God, he was just as hot as last week.
Oh my god, wait, he walked by the mailbox and towards the door. He was coming to the door. He probably had a package or something. But not the porno kind. Shit, what if he saw Dean last week? Dean jumped behind his couch as fast as humanly possible and tried to not breathe, because nobody was home. No one. Was. Home.
The doorbell rang, and Dean sucked his breath in and froze. Shit, the TV was on. He had completely forgotten it, and now the sexy mailman was going to know he was hiding like a kid afraid of Jehovah’s Witnesses, and he was going to judge him ughhhh. Suffice to say, Dean was fucking embarrassed.
He waited a solid five minutes before sneaking back to the window and checking the mailman was gone before opening his front door and grabbing the package off the step. His embarrassment was forgotten quickly, because it was his Star Trek phaser from ThinkGeek! Charlie was going to be sooooo jealous, and he couldn’t fucking wait to gloat. He snapped a picture of it and shot it off to her.
Dean: Looks like I win the gayness contest, because I can set phasers to STUN #2fab4u
Charlie: Oh my god, it came!!
Charlie: You had better bring that to work Monday so I can play with it
Dean: Only if you promise to not break it
Charlie: Btw did you see the hottie today??
Dean: Duh where did you think the package came from?
Charlie: DID YOU TALK TO HIM?!?!
Dean: You kidding? No way, Jose
Charlie: Ugh you’re no fun
Charlie: Wait. I have an idea! You should write him a letter and put it in your mailbox so he can read it when he brings your mail!!
Dean: Do you even know me? Charmando, I wouldn’t do something like that if my life depended on it
Charlie: You’re such a scaredy cat, Winchester
Dean: And proud
~***~
Drunk Dean sometimes did things that Sober Dean had to pay for, especially when his best friend/arch nemesis Charlie was involved. They always went for drinks together after work on Fridays, and somehow Dean always ended up being the only one of the two of them that did stupid, drunk person stuff. He was beginning to suspect that maybe she didn’t actually even drink, just pretended to so that she could talk his more malleable alter ego into doing what she wanted him to. Like, just a random example, writing a note to the sexy mailman.
He was going to kill her. Saturday morning met him with a skull splitting headache, and more importantly, oodles of regret. Because yes, he could vaguely remember sitting down with a pen and a piece of paper last night and writing… something. God, he couldn’t remember what the hell he had written. Maybe he had enough time to run out to the mailbox and take it out before it was too late!
Dean pulled on his sweatpants and charged out into the painfully bright midday sun. Despite his body’s many protests, he made it to the mailbox in record time, but it was for nothing, because when he opened it up, the note was gone and had been replaced by what looked like a bill and some coupons for pizza. He couldn’t really be sure, because his eyes felt like he was stabbing them full of needles. He defeatedly walked back into his house and pulled out his phone.
Dean: Dude. What happened last night. Tell me or I’m going to send your girlfriend your prom photos
He waited for a response while chewed discontentedly on a piece of cold bacon from the fridge and sipping a glass of water. He didn’t have to wait for long though, and he soon heard the telltale R2-D2 beep that was Charlie’s text alert noise.
Charlie: You were so plastered, my man. It was wild.
Charlie: I take it you only just woke up and didn’t have time to get the letter out of the box?
Dean: Shit, so that really happened? Dear god, tell me I didn’t write anything too embarrassing?
Charlie: You politely told him you wanted to suck his dick
Dean: I’ve got the picture ready to send!
Charlie: Ugh, fine. No, all you said was that you thought he looked nice and were wondering what happened to the old guy who used to bring your mail. Tbh it was pretty cute. I love drunk you
Dean sighed in relief. It was still as embarrassing as balls, but maybe the guy will think Dean has a kid or something and they wrote it. He can only hope at this point.
~***~
When Dean got home from work Monday evening and opened up the mailbox, his hopes that the mailman would just ignore the letter were proven useless.
Sitting there in the box, on top of a classic car magazine he subscribed to, was a small blue envelope with no stamp and just his first name in rather lovely script in the middle. He ripped it open before he even got inside, because holy fuck, there’s no one who would drive by his house just to put a letter in my mail other than Mr. Sexypants. It read:
Dear Dean,
I’m guessing by your handwriting and subject matter that you’re either a child or a drunk man. If it’s the former, please tell your parents that I am not a pedophile. Please. If you’re an adult and just have terrible handwriting, I’m sorry for touching on a sore subject.
Anyway, Cain, your previous mail carrier, was only working your route temporarily. He actually is one of the higher-ups for the USPS and was delivering mail as a sort of extended vacation from management. Odd, I know.
I appreciate that you think I look nice, and if you’re the adult male who lives at this address, I think you do too. If you’re a child, I’m sure you look nice, but in a non-pedophilic way.
Yours,
Castiel
Oh my god, Dean was in love. Haha, just kidding. He’s not in love; what are you talking about? Totally not in love. Nope, not at all. He lunged inside, pulled off his jacket and tie, and began furiously debating whether or not to tell Charlie about this. On the one hand, she’s his only real friend besides his younger brother, who is constantly busy with lawyer-things. But on the other hand, she would totally gloat about this for the rest of her life. But fuck it, he needs to talk to someone about this, because he never has romance in his life!
Dean: Omg you’ll never believe what happened\\
Charlie: Ooh! What??!
Dean: Mr. Double Stuffed Hotness is named Castiel, and I might want to marry him
Charlie: HE WROTE BACK?!?! It’s fate, my young grasshopper
Dean: I’m gonna send you a pic of the letter he wrote back so you can help me figure out what to write back
\
Charlie: You had better let me be your best man!! AND let me officiate!!! I’m already planning my speech
Dean: Don’t get ahead of yourself… but I’m actually kind of psyched rn
And so the planning began. Eventually, they decided on a note that read the following:
Dear Castiel,
As you deduced, I was drunk. Don’t worry, I’ll tell my parents you aren’t a pedophile anyway, just in case. Of course, they’re both in their 60s and will probably also assume I’m drunk, but better safe than sorry.
Thank you for saying I look nice, though I can’t imagine when you’ve seen me. I’m normally at work when you bring the mail (around 1:30pm, right?), so have you seen me on a Saturday? Okay, you don’t need to answer, just in case you’re actually a stalker or something. It’s never good to confront the bad guy in horror movies, and I’ve learned my lesson.
Hey, is your name really Castiel, or is that a pseudonym? I googled it, and it’s the name of the Angel of Thursday? What’s so special about Thursdays?
Live long and prosper,
Dean
~***~
Dear Dean,
I’m very glad I won’t be going to jail for calling a child attractive. You can probably hear my sigh of relief from there.
I can neither confirm nor deny when/where I have seen you. Also, are you calling me the antagonist of a horror film? If so, please enlighten me on which one, because I’m rather a fan of being scared shitless, and I’m sure seeing myself as the murderer will make an horror viewing experience even more terrifying.
And yes, my name is really Castiel. Let’s just say my parents were hippies. Many people call me Cas, though, and my siblings call me Cassie. I don’t like my siblings very much.
What about you? Why are you named Dean? Did your parents hope you would create a list of exceptional people? Or perhaps they wanted you to grown up to resemble Dean Martin?
I’m sorry, I don’t know where all that rude sass came from; it’s been a long day.
Khaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan,
Cas
~***~
Mr. Spock,
I had a girlfriend named Cassie once! Sort that information away for a future test, I suppose. How many siblings do you have? I one brother, and he can be such a bitch sometimes, so I definitely get where you’re coming from.
As it happens, I’m named after my grandmother, Deanna. And I swear to god, if you make fun of me for that, I will, um, do something… I don’t know exactly what yet, but I’ll figure it out, and it’ll be awful, I promise!
So, is it really that hard being a mailman? (You said it had been a rough day.) I’m a mechanic, by the way. If you ever need to know anything about cars, just hit me up, and I’ll be happy to help. For a price… Ha, just kidding. Maybe…
Dammit Cas, I’m a mechanic, not a doctor!
Dean
~***~
Bones,
I find it slightly perturbing that my nickname is also the name of your ex. But I always ace tests, so I guess I’m glad to know it anyway.
I have 5 siblings. I know. Hippies don’t believe in birth control, I guess. But yes, family of 8, from Michael the oldest, down to Sam the youngest. Since I’m on the subject, I suppose I might as well list off all my siblings. There’s Mike, Gabe, Luce, me, Anna, and Sam, ranging in ages from 37 to 21. Oh, I’m the ripe old age of 29, by the way. Not that that matters. Jesus, this entire letter is me talking about my family, sorry.
And no, it’s not hard being a mailman, but it is hard having to take your beloved cat to the veterinarian because they’re refusing to eat, not having bowel movements, and rolling around on the floor, meowing in pain. The poor guy had a blockage and almost died. It was a tough day.
I might just take you up on your offer to help explain things about cars, because I am completely clueless about them. I drive an old clunker that eats gas money like nobody’s business, and I really need to get a new car as soon as possible.
Have you been at the Romulan ale again??
Cas
~***~
Castiel,
I know I signed my last note with a Bones reference, but make no mistake, I am 100% Kirk, and I would appreciate it if you referred to me as such. Thank you for not forcing me to pursue legal action.
Dude, my younger brother is named Sam! Well, technically he’s named Samuel, after our grandfather, but still. Weird. And I’m 32, so that’s cool I guess.
I’m sorry to hear about your cat; that sounds pretty awful. I’ve never really had pets, and I’m actually allergic to cats, but I remember when Sammy’s dog was hit by a car and how distraught he was. I’m guessing your cat is all right now, though? If so, I’m glad. If not, sorry for rubbing salt in the wound.
Dude, do not drive that car. Like, stop it now. Please, for the sake of car lovers everywhere. Take it down to Singer’s Auto Salvage Yard; Bobby is a friend of mine, and if you tell him I sent you, he’ll give you a good price for it, and then you can use that money to buy something that’s not a piece of shit.
*funny Star Trek reference here*
Captain James Tiberius Kirk
~***~
Jim,
Can you sense me rolling my eyes? Because there’s some serious ocular oscillation going on right now in reference to your threats.
And I shortened my Sam’s name, too. His full name is Samandriel. Hippies, am I right?
Yes, my cat is fine, thank Talos. He is my best friend, and I don’t think I would be able to function properly if something happened to him. He’s a black shorthair named Toothless, by the way. Yes, I’m a basic bitch. Bite me.
I’ll try and take your advice about the car. I think my car is actually the automobile form of Sauron’s ring of power, because every time I’ve tried to get rid of it, it talks me into keeping it. I know in my heart that it needs to be torn apart for scraps, that it is taking advantage of me and should be destroyed before it does something terrible, but it’s mine. My own. My...precious…
Oh, my biggest problem is that if I sell her, I don’t know anything about buying cars, so I’m afraid someone will take advantage of my naivete and sell me an equally shitty car for a ridiculous price. Any suggestions?
*I can do this too*

Spockity,
God, I wish my parents had been hippies. Instead they were hippos. Yep, I was adopted by a pair of hippopotami at the age of four. Don’t believe me? Ask the Topeka Zoo, and they’ll corroborate my story. (Please don’t actually do that; they might remember me from when I was a teenager and broke in there to try and pet the giraffes.)
And I will never judge anyone for loving How To Train Your Dragon, because that movie was legendary. Toothless is the cutest dragon probably ever, and Hiccup is such a dreamboat.
Um, we definitely need to get rid of that car. Do not take me for some conjurer of cheap tricks! I’m trying to help you. And speaking of helping you, if you find a car and want to know just how swindled you’re going to be, just send me the information, and I can let you know if you should buy it or not!
So… what kind of music do you like? I’m a big classic rock fan, and if you aren’t I will become determined to change that about you.
Can we up switch references? Maybe Princess Bride or something?
Princess Buttercup
~***~
Buttercup,
I find your story inconceivable. But did you truly grow up in Kansas? Personally, I grew up in the wilds of Washington; Seattle, actually.
And good; I would be very upset with you if you didn’t love Toothless and Hiccup, though I must say Hiccup is not exactly my type. I like my men a little older than he (recall that I’m not a pedophile), and I think any man I may date should definitely be my size or larger, or else I might kill them accidentally in bed. Huh, I guess we haven’t really talked about sexuality ever, so sorry if that made you uncomfortable.
I would greatly appreciate it if you would actually send me your phone number or email or something, so I could send you the information on a car I’m seriously considering buying. If you’d rather not hand out such personal information, I completely understand though.
I confess I haven’t listened to much classic rock. I mostly listen to classical music, though I’ve been delving into the genre of lofi hiphop, and I actually really enjoy it.
As you wish,
Vizzini
~***~
Vizzini,
You keep using that word; I do not think it means what you think it means…
Yes, I grew up in Kansas, a little town called Lawrence to be precise. And the bit about breaking into the zoo was real too, so please don’t report me.
And honestly, I’m kind of in a weird experimental stage with my sexuality right now. I know, that’s supposed to happen during college, but maybe I’m just not a normal guy, all right? Anyway, I think I’ve officially decided I’m bisexual, but who knows? Romance is tiring, but sex is fun, and I don’t really mind who the hole belongs to. Jesus, that sounded awful and disgusting; sorry. I’m not even really like that any more. I haven’t had a hookup for like three months, which has got to be some kind of record. Sorry, this I should stop writing while I have the chance.
Totally send me the deets about the car, man. My number is 1-866-907-3235
Dude, I’m going to indoctrinate you. You fucking need to listen to classic rock; it’s the stuff of gods. Maybe I’ll make you a mixtape or something so you can listen to all the best songs. Weird question: do you have a tape player? I’m kind of old fashioned, so yeah, I’m going to make you a cassette tape with my favorite Zepp tracks on it.
Mahwage, dah bwessed awangment,

For some reason, it was taking Cas a long time to get back to Dean. They had kind of worked out an unspoken schedule by this point; one of them put a letter in the box Monday, the other responded by Wednesday, and then the first sent back a response the Friday of the same week. Basically three letter a week for the past month or so. No, that’s not weird or creepy for two adult men to do at all.
Dean had dropped off that last letter on a Monday, but no reply came on Wednesday. He tried to not let it bother him, thinking Cas was probably busy or something. But then there wasn’t a reply Thursday or Friday either, and he started to get a little miffed. The least Cas could have done was to text him now that he had his number, but noooo. Unfortunately, Dean had to be out of town that Saturday, so no confrontation could happen over the 1:30 mail delivery.
The next Saturday rolled around with no word from Cas again, and Dean was starting to get legitimately worried. He would have understood if the guy took some time off maybe for being sick or something, but two weeks? Nobody takes two weeks off, especially without telling their… friend? Suddenly, Dean’s ridiculous number of insecurities started blaring at him. What if he and Cas weren’t friends? What if he didn’t actually mean anything to Cas at all? He probably was just another drain on Cas’ time, and Cas had finally decided he’d had enough and didn’t want to talk to Dean anymore. Hell, he might have requested a different route because Dean was harassing him. Shit, of course all this was too good to be true. Dean never made friends; Charlie was the only acception to that painful trend, and he had no idea why she still hung out with him.
Dean knew those thoughts too well; he knew his own self-loathing always came around and wouldn’t leave until he started thinking about other things. So, he thought about Cas. It was almost 1:30, two weeks since he’d heard from him last, and he decided to camp out at the mailbox and wait for whoever came. He had to know if Cas was all right, at least. The guy was his friend, even if maybe Cas didn’t see him as one.
He didn’t have long to wait before seeing his old mailman (Cain, was it?) peddling a sleek bicycle down the sidewalk with a messenger bag slung over his shoulder.
“Um, hey, sorry to bother you. Cain, is it?” Dean fidgeted, feeling awkward as fuck.
“Yes, that’s me. Can I help you with something?” Huh, okay, Cain seemed like a pretty chill guy. Maybe Dean could actually avoid a panic attack from doing something this wild.
“Uh, yeah. Do you know Castiel? He brought mail on this route for a while? I just haven’t seen him in a while, and I was worried that something happened.” Dean was talking too fast, but he couldn’t help it, okay?
“I know Castiel, and I know he took off a few weeks. Don’t know why though; maybe a vacation or something. I wouldn’t worry about it though, if I were you.”
Oh Dean was gonna worry about it, no doubt about that. Because wow, he was glad Cas was all right and not dead somewhere, but Jesus, what kind of douchebag friend goes on an extended vacation without so much as a goodbye?? So yeah, Dean was going to worry about what he did wrong and why he never could keep friends, and why he was such a fucked up excuse for a human being. Awesome.
~***~
Dean was depressed. Charlie tried cheering him up but to no avail. He was just depressed. He actually took the day off on Monday, because he was such a fucking sissy who couldn’t deal with anything. God, no wonder Cas didn’t care about him. No one should care about him; he was so pathetic.
The doorbell rang. Dean lifted his head from the pillow it had been buried in for the entire first half of the day and decided he probably ought to answer the door, seeing as there was a 98% chance it was Charlie with pie and beer and a chick flick to make him feel better. God, she was too good for him; he didn’t deserve such a good friend.
He pulled the door open and was greeted by the invisible man; wait no, there was a package and a pile of mail on the front step. He sighed and picked it all up, then promptly dropped it all on the floor, shut the door, and collapsed on the couch. He didn’t feel like looking at the mail. He didn’t feel like doing anything except for sleeping. Ugh.
But maybe that package would cheer him up. He rolled his eyes at the tiny optimistic voice in his head and then rolled right off the couch and crawled to the pile of mail. He grabbed package without so much as glancing over the letters, probably all bills, and violently tore it open. Ooh, it was those custom leather-bound journals he ordered off Etsy. One was embroidered with his Hogwarts House logo (Hufflepuff and proud!) and the other matched it but had Charlie’s House (Ravenclaw, more like Raven...dumb! Good one). One of the few things he was ashamed of about being a sissy was doing things like buying matching things for himself and his best friend, or having sleepovers with his best friend, or planning his future wedding with his best friend. ANYway.
Okay, cool, the opening the package plan had worked! Dean was feeling better already. But then he saw it. Underneath the topmost bill was a little blue envelope. Dean’s hand had never moved so fast (yes, never).
Sure enough, it was from Cas. But unlike all the other letters Dean had gotten from him, this one was stamped and had both mailing and return addresses on it. Without stopping to think about what the fuck that could possibly mean, Dean ripped open the letter and read:
Dear Dean,
I am so sorry I haven’t written you in so long. To put it succinctly, my father had a heart attack, and I had to go to to Washington to be with him. The past two weeks have been about family and rekindling our relationships with each other. My father passed away two nights ago, and the funeral was yesterday. I know we never really talk about serious things, but I hope you won’t mind if I tell you this.
Honestly, as heartbroken as I am to see my father pass, I’m grateful that it has brought my family back together. All of us were there with him at the end, all of us were gathered around his bedside as he breathed his last. And he went peacefully, so I’m also grateful for that. I’ll be staying up here for another few days before flying back, and then I’ll be back to work as normal. I put my address that I’m staying at while I’m in Seattle as the return address, but I’ll add my home address too at the bottom of the page; it only feels fair that since I know where you live, you should know where I do too.
Again, I’m sorry if I made you worry at all. I know you might not see me the same way, but you’ve actually become one of my closest friends over the past month. What that says about my personal life? That I’m very awkward and antisocial, that’s what it says.
I hope to talk to you soon,
Castiel
Thank the fucking lord. Dean let go of a breath he hadn’t realized he’d been holding and grabbed his phone.
Dean: Cas is okay!! His dad died but he’ll be back soon
Charlie: Wait, his dad died, but he’ll be back soon? Who is he, god? I mean, Jesus. Whatever, I’m not required to make good religious jokes
Dean: Haha, very funny
Charlie: But yay!! I’m so glad for you!! Maybe now you’ll stop sulking like a little lost puppy
Dean: I make no promises
~***~
As promised, Cas was back by the end of the week, and Dean couldn’t stop grinning when he looked out his window Saturday to see Cas walking up to his mailbox.
He pulled the door open and ran out, unprecedented behavior from the man afraid to make eye contact with girl scouts selling cookies outside the front of the grocery store.
“Cas! It’s good to see you, man!” He went in for a hug, but then it got a little too real, so it ended up being one of those awkward side-hugs that no one really likes but everyone has to deal with.
Cas smiled back widely, and Dean got a little lost in his eyes. Wow, he’d never actually seen Cas up close, and now that he did, he could tell that Cas was actually the most attractive man alive. His ocean blue eyes drew Dean in, and he found himself completely phasing out to the point that Cas had to repeat a question three times before he could respond.
“Sorry, um, what was that?” Was the response. Classic.
“I asked if you were all right; you look a little phased.” No shit, Sherlock.
“Uh yeah, I’m fine. Just a little tired.”
“I was a little worried I’d scared you off with my last letter, seeing as how you didn’t write back.” Shit, Dean had forgotten to.
“Fuck, I totally forgot that I had your address. I guess I’m not used to actually properly sending letters, not just putting them in the mailbox.” They shared a quiet laugh before Dean went on, somberly. “I’m really sorry about your dad. My mom passed a few years back, and I know how painful it is.”
Cas smiles sadly. “Yeah, it was rough, but like I said in the letter, it really brought my family together, and I’m sure dad would have been happy to see the impact he had on us.” He paused, and Dean could there was something more rolling around in his mind, so he decided to stay silent and let Cas finish his thought. “It’s funny, he was such an absent father when we were growing up. I know he was different when he and my mom were first married; I think he was a carpenter or something, and he was always at home with Mike and Luce when they were little. But then his business took off, and by the time I was in diapers, he was hardly ever around. Business trips, late nights working, early morning meetings, it never ended. It kind of tore our family apart, bit by bit. First, Gabe ran away when he was 16. He didn’t get in touch with any of us for almost a whole year. Later, he told me he just couldn’t stand to see all the arguing and pain in our family. Then it was Luce, angrily storming off to college and refusing to answer our calls or emails. He loved all of us, his siblings so much, and I think watching dad’s absence affect us younger kids really took a toll on him.”
Suddenly, Cas’ eyes flashed up, and his cheeks grew pink. “Oh my god, I’m so sorry, I’ve just been standing here, telling you my life’s story. And fuck, I’m on the clock; I really need to run.”
Before Cas could move, Dean grabbed his wrist. “Wait, can you give me your phone number? I put mine in my last letter to you, but I’m guessing you didn’t get that.”
They exchanged numbers as quickly as possible, and Cas ran off towards the next house on his route. Dean grinned as he watched his run away and immediately send him a trial-run text.
Dean: If you gave me a fake number, I’m going to go to your house and shave your cat
Off in the distance (only about 200 feet, to be perfectly honest), Cas stopped and looked down at his phone, and Dean could not hold back a huge laugh.
Castiel: Toothless would kill your sorry ass
~***~
Regina George,
Oh my god, you’re so fetch.
Sorry Cas, I don’t know why, but I really felt like I had to change our theme to Mean Girls. Sue me. (Also, you better have fucking watched Mean Girls, or there will be hell to pay.)
So, my friend Charlie talked me into this, but I guess I kind of agreed with her that I ought to do it. And you can totally say no thanks, not interested, and it’ll be completely fine! But, I was wondering if maybe you’d be interesting in going on a date with me sometime…?
Wow, I am a child. Well, a teenage girl, to be precise. Oh shit, and you keep telling me you’re not a pedophile, so you’re definitely not going to want to go out with me now that you know my true identity. Well this is a fine mess I’ve gotten myself into.
Have you sold that car yet? You should really get on that.
Yours forever,
Amy Poehler
~***~
Mother,
Of course I’ve seen Mean Girls, I’m not that out of the proverbial loop.
And would you please thank your friend Charlie for me? I’ll admit, I’ve wanted to go on a date with you for a quite a while now, but ye ole’ social ineptitude wouldn’t let me ask. Maybe text me when you get this, and we can work out a time/place? Saturday nights are usually best for me, considering I’m always off Sundays.
Please Dean, if you’re a teenage girl, then I am too, and then it’s not pedophilia.
And no, I haven’t sold it yet, because I haven’t decided on a new one to buy yet, because in case you hadn’t noticed, my life has been a little hectic lately. I’ll try and text you the details on the car I’m looking at soon, though.
Fours yorever,
Reginers
~***~
Saturday night is there before Dean can get his shit together. He had frantically texted Charlie minutes after making the date with Cas asking her what he should wear and how he should act and whether he should just run away and never come back. You know, normal stuff.
In the end, he and Cas had decided on meeting an a small burger place near Cas’ place, so Dean knew he shouldn’t wear something too fancy. But he didn’t want to wear just his every minute of every day bluejeans, t-shirt, and flannel combo. So, with some sagely advice from Charlie, he’s decided on his most flattering pair of grey jeans and a button down maroon shirt, freshly ironed. Honestly, not half bad, even by his self-degrading standards. He toyed with the idea of a grey tie with the top two buttons of his collar undone, and decided it was too snazzy for him to refuse.
A 15-minute drive later, he was walking into the restaurant and looking around for Cas. And boy, did he find him. Cas was wearing a tight pair of black jeans, an Egyptian blue button down, and a black waistcoat, and holy fuck, Dean was having another southward situation just at the sight. He repeated the words ‘puss, flesh, old-people skin,’ in his head for half a minute until everything was hunky dory again, then made his way to the bar where Cas was standing.
“You look great, Cas.” Dean grinned when he saw Cas blatantly checking his ass. The good old grey jeans never fail.
“As do you, Dean,” Cas responded, his pupils mildly larger than probably normal.
They made their way over to a small corner booth and waived down a waitress. Adorably enough, they both ordered the same bacon cheeseburger, and in the time it took for their food to arrive, they discussed possible future heart health and how they were both going to die eventually, so it might as well be from eating delicious food.
“Dude, if bacon’s what gets me, I win,” Dean remarked right before taking a huge bite into his burger.
Cas harrumphed in agreement, then moaned around the first bite of his own burger.
Uh oh. Turned out, visual Cas is nothing compared to audible Cas in terms of making Dean’s nether regions all kinds of interested. To put it simply, Dean was sitting at a booth, on a first date, a burger in his mouth, almost completely hard. Awesome.
“Dean, are you okay?” Shit, Cas apparently noticed the panicked look on Dean’s face, and Dean’s face burned red.
“Um, yeah, I’m fine. I, um, just kinda have a little… situation. Downstairs. God this is so embarrassing; I’m soooooo, so sorry. Please don’t hate me.”
Cas was quiet for a second, then burst out with infectious laughter, and Dean couldn’t help but join in. “Oh my god, that’s hilarious. Was it become of the groan I just made or…?”
Dean ran a hand through his hair before responding, “Um, yeah. Fuck. Look, I haven’t gotten
laid in close to three months, so cut me a little slack. And honestly, I’m really sorry. I wanted this
to be a really special first date, but I feel like I kind of ruined it.” Like Dean ruined everything.
“Oh, no no no! Really, I understand much better than you’d think,” Cas assuaged his fear and sorrow with a comforting pat on the back on the hand. “It’s honestly fine. Now, do you need to go to take a trip to the bathroom, or are you all right now?”
Dean informed Cas that apparently humiliation was not one of his kinks, and the situation had resolved itself, and they were able to go on with their dinner like it had never happened.
But you know, it did happen, and Dean hadn’t had sex in months, and Cas was the hottest date Dean had ever had. SO yeah. Things happen.
~***~
After an amazing evening of burgers, pie, beer, and literal hours of conversation, they decided it was definitely time for them to part ways. Cas had walked to the restaurant, so Dean offered to drop him off on his way home, and Cas gratefully accepted.
The car ride was normal, if slightly tense. They were both slightly buzzed and totally attracted to each other, after all. But it was chill.
Dean pulled up to Cas’ home, a cozy-looking apartment complex, and parked his car in one of the visitor spots. They both climbed out and walked together up to Cas’ door.
“So, I had an awesome time tonight,” Dean half-mumbled, really trying his best to appear like he wasn’t desperate to go out with Cas again as soon as possible. “You think you might want to do this again sometime? I mean, really, I totally get it if like I’m not your type or you’re just not into me or you think I’m too--”
Cas slammed their faces (particularly their lips) together, effectively cutting off Dean’s self-abusive train of thought and filling his mind with only the pure bliss of Cas’ warm mouth on his, their tongues fighting for dominance. Cas’ mouth tasted amazing, like apple pie and happiness. Dean hungrily chased the flavour, and he couldn’t get enough. They broke for air for just a minute before Cas wheeled Dean around and up against his apartment door, weaving one hand into his hair and grabbing Dean’s own hand with the other, pinning it up against the door above his head.
Dean had never felt less in control, and it was amazing. He could feel the strength in Cas’ body shoved up against his own. He felt vulnerable, but for once in his life, he was okay with that vulnerability.
Cas moved his mouth down from Dean’s mouth to his neck, peppering the skin with hot, wet kisses. He settled on one spot, the meaty place between Dean’s neck and right shoulder and assaulted it with licks, kisses, nibbles, and sucks. He was driving Dean crazy, and Dean honestly couldn’t stop himself from moaning out, “Uhhhh, Cas…”
Maybe it was something about how he broke the silence, but Cas suddenly stilled and looked up at Dean, alarm filling his eyes. “Oh my god, Dean, I’m sorry. I’ve never done this before; I don’t know what came over me.” He stepped back from Dean and rubbed his hands over his face.
“What? Why’d you stop?” Dean replied, feeling suddenly abandoned.
Cas locked eyes with Dean and said very seriously, “I have no idea what I’m doing, Dean. I’ve never had sex; hell, I’ve never been in a relationship that lasted longer than a week. And you’re this amazing, attractive man who has had so much sex and knows all about it, and I’m just going to embarrass myself and it’ll be terrible and--”
This time, Dean satisfies the cliche, cutting off Cas’ river of doubts with a kiss into which he poured all the words he wanted to say but didn’t know how: that Cas made him feel safe and comfortable and like he could be himself and still feel appreciated and cared for and special and important.
Cas seemed to get the message, and he quickly took control once again, holding Dean tight in his arms and kissing him with more passion than is in an entire episode of Casa Erotica.
Dean had been hard for a while now, and as Cas clung to him, he could feel that Cas was in about the same spot as he was. But shit, if Cas was a virgin, that would put a lot of weight on Dean’s shoulders, right? He wanted to make it perfect for Cas, because that’s what Cas deserved.
But apparently, Cas had a completely different idea. He pulled away from Dean, and with his pupils completely blown wide and dark, moved his mouth to Dean’s ear and whispered, “I’m going to make you feel so good.”
Huh, well, Dean realized at that moment he was completely, 100%, no doubt about it, a bottom. And apparently, Cas’ self-confidence boosted itself threefold when he was horny, so yeah. That was pretty sweet.
Cas fumbled with his apartment keys and opened the front door before pushing Dean inside and slamming the door behind them. He kiss-walked (that thing where people are joined at the mouth but still manage to move around, that’s honestly kind of impressive if you think about it) Dean to what Dean assumed could only be his bedroom and shoved him onto the bed before climbing on top of waist and resuming kissing him like a man dying of dehydration and Dean’s mouth was a fucking water fountain.
Without breaking their lip lock, Cas scrambled to get Dean’s tie off, and Dean did his best to help with the clothing removal process, but his efforts were mostly futile.
Finally, after a  pathetically long and unromantic struggle, they were both naked, and Dean was basically drooling at the sight of Cas’ dick. Like, holy hell, it’s not like Dean himself was small, but Jesus, he was embarrassed of his own length in the presence of Cas’ massiveness.
Cas grinned with a hungry look in his eye as he took Dean in, and Dean felt suddenly self conscious as Cas scanned him so carefully.
Cas noticed the change in Dean’s demeanor and guessed the source quickly. “Dean, you are so beautiful,” his husky voice reassured before leaning in and capturing Dean’s lips once again, this time with a contrastingly gentle and loving kiss, and for once in his life, Dean let himself actually believe that about himself.
The kiss soon got more heated, and Cas’ hands began exploring Dean’s body, starting in his hair, traveling down his chest, over his hips, and down his thighs. Dean moaned and realized that, much to his embarrassment, he was actually close.
Fortunately, Cas seemed to sense he should advance things, and he trailed his hands back up to Dean’s throbbing cock. Dean let out a punched groan at the first touch to his hot member, squeezed his eyes shut tight, and clenched his fists behind Cas’ back. “So good, Cas…”
Cas’ hand left his cock for a minute, and Dean heard the telltale sounds of someone spitting before the hand returned, slick and tight. Just a couple tugs and Dean was coming with a shout. “Oh, Cas, oh fuck, Cas!”
He had never come so quickly in his entire life, but Dean couldn’t even find it in himself to be ashamed, especially as he heard Cas grunting as he followed directly behind him.
“Cas, that was…”
A sudden worried look fell over Cas’ face. “Was it bad? I’m sorry, I know we both came really fast.”
Dean laughed and tried his best kiss the pouting look off of Cas. “No, it was amazing, Cas. Jesus, that was the most vanilla shit I’ve ever done, but it was perfect.” Dean sighed and steeled himself before continuing. “And actually, I think the reason it was perfect was because, well, it was with you, Cas.”
~***~
“Honeybee, I’m home!” Dean stripped off his big winter coat and hung it on the hook by the front door.
“I’m in the kitchen, Dean!” Dean stalked through the house and up behind his husband, snaking his arms around the other man’s broad chest and leaning over his shoulder to give him a peck on the cheek.
“How was work today?” Dean asked, glancing around the kitchen and noticing with a grin what looked suspiciously like the mess left after someone has baked an apple pie.
“Work was lovely, thank you. Of course, that was mostly because of the letter I got from my favorite stop on my favorite route.” Cas grinned and spun around to give Dean a proper kiss.
“I’m your favorite?!” Dean grinned and pulled back before Cas could kiss him
Cas rolled his eyes, “No, I’m talking about our neighbor, Mrs. Tran.”
“I love you too, babe.” Dean finally let himself be pulled into his husband’s eager arms and smiled into the kiss. Fate was kind of awesome.

(gif not mine & some tags not working)
Tumblr media
So far, so good. Nobody was paying any real attention to me besides the occasional 'how are you doing' or 'you must be so proud of your husband'. I smile and nod, thanking them for the support.
Sebastian stood beside me, his arm wrapped around my waist as we drank champagne. I catch myself wandering off in my mind not really paying attention when a nudge spurs me out of dreamland. "I'm sorry?"
Chris chuckles. "Long day?"
I smiled. "Long couple of days really. I didn't hear your question."
"I was just asking how work is going? Last I heard you were on that big trial."
I cleared my throat nodding. "It's going good. Finally looks like we're about to settle the deal."
Chris smiles. "Glad to hear that. You were stressed out for a while over it."
Sebastian nods, kissing my cheek. "Little busy beaver." Leaning into my ear he sighs. "They don't expect anything."
I sighed, smiling. "Good." I clear my throat. "I have to run to the ladies' room."
Scarlet smiles. "I'll join you."
I sigh. I am not playing twenty questions with this chick. Walking into the bathroom, she enters a stall while I wait outside, fixing my hair and makeup. When she's finished, washes her hands and fixes her dress. Smiling, she asks. "You and Seb seem distant."
Shit. "Really? You think?"
She shrugs. "You've been pretty quiet most of the night. Everything okay?"
I nod, my stomach dropping. "Yeah, everything's great. Just got a headache."
She smiles. "Of course."
I chew my lip and readjust my dress. "Congratulations on the movie. Not sure if I already said it or not."
She watches me in the reflection. "Three times, actually. You sure everything's okay?"
I nod. "Peachy. Listen, I should run and find Seb. Let him know I'm not feeling well."
"Yeah, of course. I'll be right behind you."
I left her in the bathroom, stood outside the bathroom door and sighed. Calming myself enough to continue, I walk to find my husband and link fingers with him. "Hey, honey."
Sebastian's eyes grow wide and then he smiles. "Hey baby." I squint my eyes and sigh, rubbing my forehead. "You okay?"
I nod. "Just a headache is all."
He kisses my forehead and smiles. "You wanna go home or-"
I shake my head. "No, of course not. This is your night, don't let little old me spoil it."
He kisses my cheek and chuckles. "If it gets any worse, let me know." I wink at him as Scarlet comes behind us, smiling. 
"Well, we should really be going. I'm sure (Y/N) is more than overdue for a nap."
I smile, my head actually hurting now from the bright lights. "Sorry to be a bummer."
Chris smiles, leaning into me for a hug. "I hope you feel better."
I nod, smiling. "Thank you. Congrats again on the movie guys."
Walking to the parking lot, my head throbs harder. "Jesus, my head is killing me."
"For real? I thought it was just an excuse to get out of there."
I shake my head. "At first it was so I could avoid Scarlet's questions. She's great, by the way."
He snorts. "You were always dodgy on questions, so that's good." Climbing into the car, I close my eyes, leaning my head against the rest. Sebastian reaches over and rubs my thigh. "We'll be home soon then you can get some sleep."
Before we can pull out of the parking lot, a figure knocks on the window. Sebastian rolls his window down to reveal Chris standing there, Scarlet not far behind him. "Hey, buddy."
Chris smiles. "Hey, sorry to be a complete ass hat but our car won't start. You think we can hitch a ride to the hotel?"
I smile, nodding. "Of course, climb in."
Sebastian whispers. "We're always touchy in the car so don't be awkward if I start rubbing you or something."
"Just don't be groping anywhere you ain't wanted."
He rolls his eyes. "Scouts honor."
Chris and Scarlet climbed into the back seat and Sebastian, like promised, reached over again and laced our fingers together. I had to admit, it was nice. Having someone to hold and be close to. Chris chuckles. "Sorry for the bother guys. Didn't fucking count on the damn car breaking down."
Sebastian waves it off. "No worries. Which hotel?"
Scarlet names off the place they're staying and we speed out of the driveway. The hotel was a bit out of the way from the apartment but hearing the boys chatter about their personal lives and upcoming roles was interesting. Stopping at a red light, I take a bold move and reach my hand over to Seb's lap, rubbing his thigh. He cocked a brow at me and I rolled my eyes.
Twenty minutes later, we arrive at the hotel, dropping the pair off. "Give us call tomorrow and maybe we'll meet up for breakfast."
Sebastian smiles. "She's not doing too hot guys, maybe brunch instead?" Chris nods and leads Scarlet inside.
I chuckle. "Never took you for a brunch person."
"Never took you for a thigh rubbing person."
"Shut up." Then the pain in my head seemed to heighten to a ten just like that. My breath hitched in my throat and I felt sick to my stomach. "Oh fuck."
Sebastian glances at me, worry filling his face. "What? What's wrong?"
"My fucking head, somethings wrong."
He picks up speed and drives straight to the apartment. Helping me into the elevator and inside, he takes me straight to the bedroom. "Crawl into bed. I'll grab some Advil and water." Only moments later, he returns with promised Advil and water. I slide under the covers, dressed in my underwear and tank top.
"The bed's fucking freezing."
He shrugs. "Would be warmer if you let me actually sleep with you."
I rolled my eyes but the motion pricked another wave of pain. "God dammit."
He sighed,stripping down to this underwear and crawls under the covers, holding me tight against his chest. "Don't be weird about this."
"What's weird about a stranger holding me tight?"
"For your information, smart ass, whenever you got headaches, colds or flus. I'd crawl in bed with you, no matter how fucking sick you were and hold you until you fell asleep. So shut up and let me help you how I can."
Well then. "Fine."
"Baby, this place is amazing!" I spin around the empty apartment and giggle as Seb follows into the living room.
"You really like this one? We got three more to see after this if we don't want it."
I shake my head. "This place is perfect."
He kisses my hair and sighs, content. "If you love it then I love it."
"Good. Because I love it and I love you."
Smirking, his leans down and presses a quick kiss to my lips. "Good."
I feel myself tossing and turning in the bed. Sebastian's arms grip me tighter.
"Baby, wake up! Wake up!"
I sigh and flip over in bed, covering my head with the pillow. "Whaaaaat?"
Seb jumps onto the bed, laying flat so all of his weight is on me. "Today's the first day of making breakfast!"
"What?" I chuckle as I slither under his body. 
"It's day number one in our new place so it's the first day of making breakfast. I took the liberty of running to the corner store quickly, picking up a few things. I got pancake mix, eggs, bacon, sausage, ham. Loads of fruit, strawberries specifically for you, my Love. Blueberries for me and if you touch them, I'm gonna have to kill ya."
I shake my head, finally breaking free from under his weight. "All of that sounds really good but you know what sounds ever better?" He hums a response. "Coffee."
He sighs, defeated. "I thought you were gonna say sex because you know we have a whole apartment to break in."
I roll my eyes. "Jesus, you're a fucking horn dog."
"Oh please, tell me you did not look at the island and say 'damn I can't wait for my husband to fuck me hard on that'?"
I shrug. "What if I did?"
He winks, leaning in close to kiss my lips again. "Then we got a lot of steps from here to there."
I jolt awake, screaming. "Oh my god."
Sebastian flicks the light on beside him, eyes curious yet terrified. "What's wrong?"
I was holding my head between my knees. "My head."
"It's still hurting?"
I nod. "It feels like my brain's going to explode."
"You want some more pills?"
I shake my head. "No, just let me try and get more sleep." Moments later, I'm out like a light again.
"I cannot believe you would do this to me!" I yell and throw a plate at his head.
"You're kidding? You've been so invested in your fucking job and your reflection that you couldn't spare three fucking minutes a day for me? You're husband?" Tears fill his angry eyes.
"You're blaming me for this? You're actually blame me for fucking that whore? That's rich."
He runs a hand through his hair. "I'm not blaming you I'm just stating facts."
"No, Sebastian, you're spitting out excuses."
"Excuses? If I was going to use any excuse in the book, maybe I'd pull one out that hurt a bit more."
I stopped, my eyes growing hard. "Do not bring it up."
“(Y/N), we have to deal with this. We have to acknowledge that we lost the baby, okay?"
"I said don't bring it up!"
He stepped closer. "I'm sorry that we lost this baby, I'm sorry that I turned to another woman. You weren't and still aren't letting me help you heal, baby. I want to help you. I want you to help me."
I feel tears flowing down my face. "I don't know if I can trust you again."
He shakes his head. "I understand that. It's gonna take time for this to heal."
I scoff. "Time? It's gonna take a fucking miracle, Sebastian."
I jolt awake again but not with a headache this time. Sebastian feels me sit up, sighing and flicking on the light. "You're head still hurting?"
I shake my head. "No. But I remember."
"Remember what?"
I scoff. "Everything."

Human Spideypool where Wade still has psychosis due to war PTSD?
Im assuming you mean that they don’t have bave super powers by “human”. I really like this prompt thank you for sending it in. I don’t have experience with PTSD but I do experience some symptoms similar to psychosis bc I have bipolar depression type 2 so I hope it did it justice. I love Wade so much and comic book spidey-pool is my fave. Sorry for no read-more I’m on mobile only as of rn. Established SpideypoolRating: PGLength: blurb length
“Wade,” Peter brushed up against Wade’s shoulder, “Do you want to just go out for dinner instead?”
“No,” Wade trailed off looking out the window. He mumbled something under his breath that Peter didn’t catch. He’d been standing in the kitchen for nearly 20 minutes, doing nothing but staring into the space above the stove.
“Hm?”
“Ah just talking to the boxes petey-pie. Nothing to concern yourself with. What do you say you and I order take out instead? And then after, we could have a real fun time in the bedroom. Or during,” He threw in a wink at the end, just for the flair. Grabbing the house phone off the hook, he attempted to leave for the living room.
Peter grabbed his arm, keeping him in place. “Wade. Look, I don’t want to overstep my boundaries but you can’t avoid talking to me about it for forever. The diversion via sex and/or food tactic is effective, but won’t be for much longer,” he smiled gently to make sure Wade knew he wasn’t mad at him.
Wade smiled and shook his head, “Pete baby, you wouldn’t get it. When I came back from overseas white and yellow just showed up. End of story. It’s just the way that I live and I will be okay. Like I’ve said time after time.” Wade hummed a little bit of ‘Time After Time’ after he finished his sentance.
The goofy Wade was the one that Peter loved. Although Wade did have a bad habit of letting his goofy side take over in serious situations. Like now. “Wade, I get that I can never understand what its like to be in your position. That I can never understand your mental illness,but I do understand that you joining the military with the hopes that you could afford college and then getting badly injured did effect you. I didn’t know you before hand, but I do know you now and I know you’re lying when you say nothings wrong. I know you better than that and I want to know how to make my botfriend feel better.“
Pete ran a hand through his hair thinking about how long Wade has been dodging this question. Didn’t he deserve to atleast know how to deal with Wade’s episodes? Was he not the one who sat up with him for hours trying to help him only to get yelled at? He knew one day they’d get there, and that it was hard for Wade to open up, but hadn’t he been patient enough?
If Wade wasn’t ready to open up it was fine, he just hoped he would be soon. “Babe. It’s fine if you’re not ready. It’s up to you I know it must be hard to open up to somebody who really doesn’t get it, but I want to. I want to get it. I want to understand so I can help you. Because I love you.” Peter was really pulling out all the stops tonight. They were a very close couple but they didn’t ever verbalize it unless they really felt it necessary.
And damn, did it feel necessary tonight.
“I know,” Wade set down the phone and pulled up the other bar stool, “It’s hard to talk about sometimes you know? Especially when I’ve got three times the people giving their feelings and opinions about everything I’m going to do or say,” he chuckled glancing at Peter.
Peter didn’t laugh he merely said, “I’m sorry if I made you feel like you have to talk about it. I know its hard, but it’s hard for me too when you won’t let me help you.” Pete really hoped he wasn’t saying the wrong thing right now. He had in the past, and he always felt horrible when he did.
“I know baby boy. I want to talk to you about it. And I’m trying to now. I know it must be frusting to deal with all of my problems,” Wade sat to think for a moment before saying, “But I think I’d be a little more talkative over Chinese food.”
Peter smiled leaning in closer to Wade.“I’ll pay for takeout,” he paused changing his volume to a whisper, “But you’re gonna be real talkative after you make good on your promise of a fun time in the bedroom.”
Wade laughed, smushing Peter’s cheeks and kissing his lips. “Ahhh Petey boy I never promised, but I will deliver.” His dumb puns made Peter snort, as he grabbed for the phone and made off towards the bedroom.

Dare you to answer all 100 of those questions
Well shit man I feel challenged.
All questions answered under the cut.
1: Is there a boy/girl in your life?
As in boyfriend/girlfriend? Nope, single af over here :P
2: Think of the last person who hurt you; do you forgive them?
Uhh probs? I mean I don’t really remember but it probably wasn’t a big thing.
3: What do you think of when you hear the word “meow?”
My kitty, my little pumpkin, Freckles uwu
4: What’s something you really want right now?
To finish answering these questions? JK JK lmao!
I’d really like to see one of my best friends again, for like more than just one day but like I always really want that.
5: Are you afraid of falling in love?
In a way, yes. I’m afraid that I’ll fall in love with someone I’m not meant to be with and have my heart broken. I’m afraid I’ll fall in love with someone who won’t like that I’m sex repulsed, who won’t like that I don’t think I’d want to have kids, or at least little kids/babies. I know the right person won’t mind any of that, but I’m afraid of falling for the wrong person before I fall for the right one.
6: Do you like the beach?
Yes! I like looking for seashells but I stay the fuck away from the ocean.
7: Have you ever slept on a couch with someone else?
I haven’t fallen asleep on a couch, that I’m aware of, but one of my best friends and I cuddled on one while relaxing during a 24 film contest.
8: What’s the background on your cell?
A picture of Korrasami from the LOK comic.
9: Name the last four beds you were sat on?
Name the last four beds?? Uh my own, my dad’s, and my sister’s?
10: Do you like your phone?
Meh. It’s a good phone but since some iOS update, it’s been a real bitch. :/
11: Honestly, are things going the way you planned?
Ahahahaha no. Some things are nice, some things are… what they are. I didn’t plan to spend four years at MJC but I’m getting my AA degree at the end of this year. I didn’t plan to want to continue my schooling and get a Bachelor’s/Master’s in archaeology but that’s because I’d y’know buried that dream deep down ‘cause I thought I wasn’t smart enough (still sometimes feel like that but I got this, don’t worry). I didn’t plan to actually get into theater and want to minor in theater. I didn’t plan to get hella into Dungeons & Dragons and play in two campaigns, DMing one, and uploading the videos to YouTube but hey, I like how that turned out. I didn’t plan on being stuck with writer’s block majority of the time and restarting the same book over ten times. All in all, life’s not really going how I’d planned but at the same time, I hadn’t really made a plan. I just sort of let it take its course, I guess?
12: Who was the last person whose phone number you added to your contacts?
Oh a friend of a friend’s who joined this RPG campaign that’s based on the Dresden Files. She was added to the group chat so I added her number. :)
13: Would you rather have a poodle or a Rottweiler?
Uhh I’d rather have both, duh.
14: Which hurts the most, physical or emotional pain?
Emotional by far. I’ve dealt with physical pain for like four years now in my left shoulder (finally getting that fixed this summer) and while it can hurt so much that it makes me cry, I’ll take it over emotional pain. That’s probs not a good thing but that’s how I feel.
15: Would you rather visit a zoo or an art museum?
I like the zoo, but I’d rather go to an art museum. I adore museums and don’t go to them as often as I’d like.
16: Are you tired?
Who isn’t? It’s past 11pm rn so yeah, I am lol.
17: How long have you known your 1st phone contact?
My first phone contact was probs my parents and sister so my whole life lol.
18: Are they a relative?
Yep ;P
19: Would you ever consider getting back together with any of your exes?
I have one ex and I’d have to say no. Nothing against him, it’s just that I don’t have romantic feelings for him. I don’t want to date someone I don’t have romantic feelings for.
20: When did you last talk to the last person you shared a kiss with?
Not like a kiss on the cheek, I’m guessing? If so, then no one :P
21: If you knew you had the right person, would you marry them today?
Mm, I’d probs say yes if they proposed. A wedding takes time to plan though! ;P

Uhh aside from parents or family?? Shit I can’t remember, but y’know what? I have damn pretty eyes. I have pretty hazel eyes ok lmao.

No Getting Over You || Chapter i/?
Heyyooooo guess who’s re-editing this fic?! I can’t put a gif or masterlist link in rn cause I don’t have my MacBook cause I dropped it (oops) I’ll find a way after, but like for now let’s just ignore it please😩 anyway, I’m re-uploading on the same note cause I didn’t like the way I wrote it. Like I like it better when I use You instead of I in the story. So I’m changing and stuff and it’s the same thing except that changed. It’s gonna be easier to write part two this way. Thanks for reading and I’ll try to have it up soon! (Part two I mean)

Masterlist
No Getting Over You Masterlist
—————————-
Tumblr media
You knew from the beginning that you were in love with Peter Parker, and that you would only be hurting yourself.
From the moment you met him, you knew you were stuck in a pit of hopelessness.
You never told him because he never showed interest, you were one of his close friends by that point.
You really thought it couldn’t get any worse, unwillingly giving your heart to a boy who hadn’t loved you back, until he started to have a thing with your best friend, Michelle Jones.
They got closer and closer each time you guys hung out, she told you that she had developed mad feelings for Peter, and as her best friend, you couldn’t say anything about it. You hadn’t told her that you fell for him before, so you couldn’t now. He liked her anyway.
You watched them hold hands, kiss and do all that couple stuff. They had more inside jokes and time spent together.
You saw MJ become a more brighter person because she was with Peter. You couldn’t take that away or ruin that for her. You were her best friend, and cared about her a whole damn lot to let her get her heartbroken; and not by Peter, but by you.
You did your best to keep your head down and not say anything about or against them.
You distracted myself with school, and trying to learn or do different things alone on your free time.
It was going fine…, well, as fine as it could go.
Until everything went so very wrong.
MJ had always been one of the smartest girls in school, she knew a lot of what went on around her, so you guessed she noticed there was something wrong with you,
“You’re really distant,” she’d told you once, “Is it because we haven’t been hanging out as much?”
You told her, “Yeah,” and hoped she would leave it at that.
You thought she did, until you walked in on her in your bedroom, reading a very private book of yours.
“You… you have feelings for Peter?” She turned to look at you, “Why am I just now finding this out?”
You scoffed, “I mean, you weren’t supposed to find out,” you squinted my eyes in disbelief, “That book’s private.”
She took a breath and looked at you, “Why didn’t you tell me?”
“Oh, I don’t know, maybe because you’re my best friend,” You shook your head, “He likes you anyway, so,”
“What, if he liked you, then you’d go for him even if I still liked him?”
You laughed bitterly, “Don’t try and twist my words, MJ,” You huffed and mumbled, “It’s not like you haven’t done it already.”
“What?” She squinted and took a step forward.
“Nothing.”
You both stood in silence for a while until she spoke up again, “You went into to a lot of detail with that. You wish he never started dating me, huh? That’s not very best friend like.”
You sighed, “Listen, if it makes you that uncomfortable, I’ll stop hanging with you guys as much as I do.”
You didn’t expect for her, your best friend of many years, to actually say she wanted you to stop hanging around her and Peter. What you more so didn’t expect was for her to tell Peter about your feelings for him.
You got looks from him the next day. Glances were thrown, ones of pity, discomfort, and unsureness. You got glares from MJ too, especially when she noticed to glances between you and Peter.
That night was the first night you’d actually cried over him.
While you were distracting myself from your feelings and the fact that they were together, not being able to talk to or be around him made it all so very real.
He knows now.
Michelle probably told him everything you wrote in that book. From dreams of romantic dates, to what it would be like to kiss him, to have him call you his.
You felt embarrassed; he didn’t feel the same at all.
Now you were alone, you don’t have a best friend, or any other friends for that matter, to help talk through heartbreak.
So, you’ve got to move on. Get over Peter Parker once and for all.
Easier said than done.
But it’s been two weeks now, and it’s fair to say that you’ve been doing pretty well. You’ve come to learn that you’re just fine on your own.
But, just as you thought you were getting into the groove of the way things were, another unexpected event happened.
All while you were sitting in you bed, doing homework, you heard taps coming from the window.
The new ‘vigilante’, as some would like to him, was at your window.
Spider-Man was at your window; and very much injured.
